[12:05] <Opulentus> is someone willing to help me with a DVD-rw problem
[12:05] <jimmygoon> How do I count the number of lines in a folder? like number of lines in text files in a folder?
[12:05] <nickrud> DarkMessiah, ah.   sudo chown <you>:<you> /home/<you> && sudo chown <you>:<you> /home/<you>/.dmrc && chmod 644 /home/<you>/.dmrc
[12:05] <vocx> nickrud, he never got that about the quotes, he he
[12:05] <nickrud> vocx, eh, he turned into a one-liner ;)
[12:06] <serenityUK> n0dding0ff, if you can't access linux and talk to us at same time, best I can do is point you to the tutorial I used to get it working...  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31926
[12:06] <Opulentus> I seem to have an odd issue.  I have an IDE dvdrw that Ubuntu appears to see as a SCSI drive
[12:06] <_rocketman> n0dding0ff: not sure I understood the problem -- has your wifi stopped working or are you wondering if it has changed name from wlan0 to eth1 say?, and is it possible you turned off a hardware wifi switch?
[12:06] <vocx> jimmygoon, "ls | wc" do you mean something like this?
[12:07] <jimmygoon> vocx, wc -l *
[12:07] <jimmygoon> vocx, yeah, thanks
[12:07] <lashmoove> what is DVD... MPEG TS or MPEG PS ?
[12:07] <DarkMessiah> nickrud: do i write all 2 get there?
[12:07] <zeroaudience> hi I have a problem with my pc, feisty just freeze or the scrren goes blank
[12:07] <CompJunki> is there a simpler way than to go through all that xorg crap that i dont understand ?
[12:07] <lucashungaro> I have a Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 sound card and a Logitech X-530 5.1 speaker set... the sound is okay but I got an interference noise at the central speaker all the time. Does anyone know what's happening?
[12:07] <n0dding0ff> _rocketman: No, I used to have a wirless interface in "Network", but now I only have ethernet and modem.
[12:07] <MaxL> Hey, anyone know how to set it up so that when you hit the windows key you get the ubuntu menu instead? Or how to set up the other button ( i think it does the same action as right shift )
[12:07] <dredhammer> hello i need help, dma on my harddrive keeps turning itself off even though its enabled in hardparm.conf
[12:07] <jimmygoon> n0dding0ff, did you get the recent kernel update? I noticed I had an update waiting but apparently not the new restricted modules
[12:07] <nickrud> DarkMessiah, that's three separate commands; you can do them one at a time, substituding your username for <you>
[12:08] <jimmygoon> n0dding0ff, this seems to happen rather often with ubuntu updates :/
[12:08] <serenityUK> CompJunki, yes if you have an nvidia driver
[12:08] <dug_> i found out how to change xmms to output to headphones, but volume control in it and in gnome are ignored
[12:08] <[swb] > <MaxL> Hey, anyone know how to set it up so that when you hit the windows key you get the ubuntu menu instead? Or how to set up the other button ( i think it does the same action as right shift )
[12:08] <jimmygoon> n0dding0ff, I didn't install it yet so I don't know if that the problem but trying plugging into ethernet and search synaptic for restricted  and look for the restricted modules for your updated kernel
[12:08] <DarkMessiah> nickrud:be right back do go.
[12:08] <[swb] > I would be very interested in this also
[12:08] <CompJunki> serenityUK:  i do
[12:09] <n0dding0ff> jimmygoon: well, it worked just fine yesterday before I compiled my kernel..
[12:09] <serenityUK> CompJunki, are you using the restricted driver for 3D graphics or from the website?
[12:09] <jimmygoon> n0dding0ff, oh, didn't see that you compiled your own kernel, I don't know anything about that, sorry
[12:09] <nickrud> MaxL, [swb]  keeping the windows key as <super> lets you use it for key macro combinations; very useful; alt-f1 gives you the menu
[12:09] <CompJunki> serenityUK:  no off apt-get install nvidia-settings
[12:09] <[swb] > nickrud, true, I use it all the time with amarok
[12:10] <MaxL> nickrud, what does it currently do? o-o;
[12:10] <vocx> !shortcuts | MaxL
[12:10] <ubotu> MaxL: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[12:10] <dug_> [swb] : http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/use-the-windows-key-for-the-start-menu-in-ubuntu-linux/
[12:10] <jimmygoon> I'm sure you could change the key bindings in gconf-editor (maybe)
[12:10] <nickrud> MaxL, it does nothing; but I have <super>t  (windowskey-t) bound to start up a gnome-terminal in my preferred size; you can assign other keys for things like that
[12:10] <cal_> Hello all
[12:11] <DarkMessiah> nickrud: can you show me how would you type it in the terminal?
[12:11] <serenityUK> CompJunki, yes i was going to say there is a control panel with nvidia to set it up for you    gksu nvidia-settings     choose your resolution and dual monitors etc.. then press a button and it saves the xorg.conf for you
[12:11] <dredhammer> hello i need help, dma on my harddrive keeps turning itself off even though its enabled in hdparm.conf
[12:11] <[swb] > anyone one know why my windows partition would mysteriously stop loading with grub, it just hangs at "Starting up..."
[12:11] <jimmygoon> [swb]  are you doing "chainloader +1"
[12:11] <n0dding0ff> Okay, It checked /etc/network/interfaces, and I seem to have wlan0.
[12:12] <serenityUK> CompJunki, you have to run it as root otherwise it can't save the changes to xorg.conf
[12:12] <nickrud> DarkMessiah, I did. Assuming your username on the box is DarkMessiah, the first one would translate as sudo chmod DarkMessiah:DarkMessiah /home/DarkMessiah
[12:12] <[swb] > jimmygoon, yeah
[12:12] <zeroaudience> hi all, my machine randomly freezes with keyboard leds blinking or the screen goes blank or I get the login twice
[12:12] <jimmygoon> n0dding0ff then you have to use this one command (er, lemme see if I can find it) to create a device from it
[12:12] <zeroaudience> I've used Ubuntu on it since 5.10 and now I have 7.04 (Ubuntu)
[12:13] <nickrud> zeroaudience, if it's all been good for a while, try running the memtest on the bootup screen for a while.
[12:13] <__rocketman> n0dding0ff: going to be a bit tricky to find the problem if you can't access your linux box. In a terminal you can do "lspci", "dmesg", "cat /etc/networking/interfaces" "ifconfig" "iwconfig" and check they show signs of your wireless card and look for anything unusual
[12:13] <vocx> zeroaudience, check lauchpad bugs or the forum for some sort of regression
[12:13] <zeroaudience> and I've never had freeze or blank screen problem
[12:13] <Dragonborn64> how do you register a username?
[12:13] <CompJunki> thanks serenityUK
[12:13] <Dragonborn64> I tried to use "/msg nickserv register <your-password>" but I don't think it worked
[12:13] <nickrud> !register | Dragonborn64
[12:13] <ubotu> Dragonborn64: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[12:13] <zeroaudience> Video card is nVidia fx5200
[12:14] <jimmygoon> n0dding0ff, something lik this: "wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wlan0 wlanmode monitor"  try that maybe?
[12:14] <jimmygoon> n0dding0ff, or if that doesn't work change wlan0 to wifi0
[12:14] <[swb] > jimmygoon, should I be doing chainloader +1?
[12:14] <zeroaudience> processor is AMD sempron 3000+ although the [unknown model]  motherboard says it's a 2700+
[12:14] <MilitantPotato> can you have ubuntu configure to automount partitions or do you have to manually do it through fstab
[12:15] <jimmygoon> [swb] , yeah. thats the only thing that came to mind... unless you don't have the correct partition selected
[12:15] <zeroaudience> vocx: thank you I'll do
[12:15] <lucashungaro> I have a Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 sound card and a Logitech X-530 5.1 speaker set... the sound is okay but I got an interference noise at the central speaker all the time. Does anyone know what's happening?
[12:15] <Dragonborn64> !register | Dragonborn64
[12:15] <jimmygoon> random annoyance: ubuntu doesn't cleanly unmount my removable devices before shuting down..... It has resulted in a few cases of data loss for me :(
[12:15] <zeroaudience> but what you mean with "regression"?
[12:15] <nickrud> MilitantPotato, if it's not mentioned in /etc/fstab, ubuntu's supposed to automount it to /media and show it on your desktop
[12:15] <n0dding0ff> Nothing unusual except that if and iw don't return a wireless device, but I already knew that.
[12:15] <Ashfire908> how can i stop ubuntu from only using eth0 to get somewhere instead of ppp0, WITHOUT disabling eth0 or manually setting the gateway?
[12:15] <n0dding0ff> That was to _rocketman
[12:15] <zeroaudience> something bad due to kernel upgrade maybe?
[12:15] <__rocketman> n0dding0ff: have you tried "sudo ifdown wlan0" followed by "sudo ifup wlan0" ?
[12:16] <Ashfire908> *for eth0
[12:16] <GuyFromHell> i accidentally deleted /boot (long story involving windows bootloader), any ideas?
[12:16] <jimmygoon> n0dding0ff, even as root - nothing at all?
[12:16] <whta> how do I "safely" eject a portable storage device?
[12:16] <_gpg_> what's the most used code ducumentation tool used in ubuntu project ?
[12:16] <n0dding0ff> _rocketman: it says "ifdown: interface wlan0 not configured"
[12:16] <lucashungaro> Where do I can find good Linux drivers for Sound Blaster sound cards?
[12:16] <sean13> ...
[12:16] <jimmygoon> GuyFromHell, you overwrote Grbu with NTLDR or you literally deleted /boot?
[12:16] <nickrud> GuyFromHell, you still running?
[12:16] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, also check your log files in /var/log  such as /var/log/syslog
[12:16] <GuyFromHell> jimmygoon: quite literally deleted boot
[12:17] <n0dding0ff> lucashungaro: As far as I know, alsa's the only provider.
[12:17] <SlimeyPete> lucashungaro: creative.com (but SB drivers are included with ubuntu)
[12:17] <GuyFromHell> nickrud: happened in the livecd environment
[12:17] <__rocketman> noddingoff: ok, then "sudo ifup wlan0"
[12:17] <zeroaudience> serenityUK: I do it right now thanks
[12:17] <MilitantPotato> nickrud: so if if you remove the reference to it in fstab it will automount?
[12:17] <nickrud> GuyFromHell, you have the right nick.
[12:17] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, you need to find an error message somewhere to investigate
[12:17] <nickrud> MilitantPotato, mine all do.
[12:17] <lucashungaro> SlimeyPete: Yep, the sound is working, but I got a noise on the central speaker all the time
[12:17] <christian_> does ubuntu support 3+ buttoned mouses??
[12:18] <lucashungaro> n0dding0ff: They have a site?
[12:18] <vocx> MilitantPotato, whenever you add new hard drives or partitions you, the system administrator, are supposed to change the fstab. Be sure to provide correct options.
[12:18] <GuyFromHell> (just to show how much of an idiot i am: i copied the boot files from my backup (which i made to install windows) then i deleted the back up files, then i realized the partition type was wrong so i rewrote partition table from ntfs to linux then reformatted then tried copying again...)
[12:18] <dug_> !buttons
[12:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about buttons - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:18] <MilitantPotato> vocx: I was afraid of that.

[12:18] <gustavold> hi all I've updated from feisty to gutsy using update-manager... now all the fonts are big. Do you know what may has gone wrong?
[12:18] <zeroaudience> Sep  1 23:58:53 station-1 NetworkManager: <WARNING>^I nm_dbus_get_networks_cb (): error received: org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo.NoNetworks - There are no wireless networks stored..

[12:19] <zeroaudience> this is a routine message?
[12:19] <MaxL> nickrud, how would I go about doing something like you did there??
[12:19] <gustavold> vocx:  thanks
[12:19] <dug_> gustavold: are you using kde?
[12:19] <gustavold> dug_: nop
[12:20] <nickrud> GuyFromHell, what I'd do is mount the root partition read right, then run sudo chroot <the root partition>, then run sudo aptitude reinstalinux-image-2.6.20-15-generic grub ; run sudo update-grub, and preyll
[12:20] <__rocketman> n0dding0ff: how was ifup?
[12:20] <lucashungaro> Does Gaim support webcams? And voice conversations?
[12:20] <MaxL> nickrud, nevermind I figured it out XD
[12:20] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, doesn't seem like it would freeze the machine... there are many log files.. forinstance if X freezes there is an Xorg.0.log
[12:20] <MaxL> lucashungaro, not sure but I know Kopete does
[12:20] <n0dding0ff> _rocketman: no such device
[12:20] <sean13> know what?
[12:20] <n0dding0ff> But...\
[12:20] <dug_> gustavold: this bug report might help: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/115950
[12:20] <CompJunki> ubuntu is well better than vista TOPSSSSSS
[12:20] <nickrud> GuyFromHell, some typos there from cut and paste.  what I'd do is mount the root partition read right, then run sudo chroot <the root partition>, then run sudo aptitude reinstal linux-image-2.6.20-15-generic grub ; run sudo update-grub, and prey
[12:20] <sean13> whats happened
[12:20] <zeroaudience> well with my very poor skills I guess chat is not the best place to get help for this issue
[12:20] <n0dding0ff> It does say that eth0 is already configured.
[12:20] <zeroaudience> thanks a lot
[12:21] <nickrud> meh
[12:21] <n0dding0ff> I did ifup wlan0

[12:21] <lucashungaro> MaxL: Kopete works on Gnome?
[12:21] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, dig around in /var/log  we need an error to chew on
[12:21] <nickrud> GuyFromHell, did that make any sense to you, typos, spelling and all?
[12:21] <sean13> ifup wlan0... hmm talking about boot system
[12:21] <sean13> ??
[12:21] <zeroaudience> serenityUK: I am doing it :)
[12:22] <n0dding0ff> sean13: What are you talking about?
[12:22] <Sam_Wesin> meh
[12:22] <n0dding0ff> Oh.  Sorry, I have a wirless problem, too.
[12:22] <MaxL> lucashungaro, I have it working in gnome just fine.
[12:22] <dug_> lucashungaro: yes, kopete works, there also was a gaim-vv project to integrate webcam support into gaim.   you can also test your webcam with ekiga (installed by default in ubuntu)
[12:23] <lucashungaro> MaxL: Hmm... okay..
[12:23] <GuyFromHell> gah! intertubes are needed!
[12:23] <lucashungaro> dug_: Thank you
[12:23] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, if you click on System->Admin->System Log  you can find many in one place
[12:23] <n0dding0ff> _rocketman: Thanks for helping me by the way.  Do you think that my problem has to do with ndinswrapper?  I only have about 25 minutes left on this comptuer.
[12:23] <Phydoux> I have no sound in Totem when I play a .mov file from my digital camera. Is there a fix for that?

[12:28] <JBeatnik> I'm new here. :P
[12:28] <Jowi> Welcome to #ubuntu JBeatnik
[12:28] <JBeatnik> I was wondering if anyone could answer some questions about a distro
[12:28] <burnhamd> can someone help me get x server to work?
[12:28] <Nomad``> how would i check to make sure all the buttons on my Logitech G5 mouse are really working properly? Half Life doesn't recognize anything above mouse5 but i don't know if that's because the mouse buttons aren't working or because Half Life is retarded.
[12:28] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, messages is a good one... you can look at previous days find when you crashed  by date/time
[12:28] <Vendeta> and one more thing is it possible to private chat with someone??
[12:29] <Ashfire908> jowi: not so far.
[12:29] <zeroaudience> from messages: Sep  2 00:18:00 station-1 gconfd (za-5459): Failed to send buffer

[12:30] <jrib> JBeatnik: it's customary to just ask your question, then if someone knows the answer, they respond
[12:30] <TheMafia> will someone point me to a good howto on encrypiting an entire /home dir with feisty?  I have been trying to get encfs and fuse and the pam module with no luck
[12:30] <SlimeyPete> Vendeta: remember the /.  /msg
[12:30] <JBeatnik> oh, I didn't know if there was a queue for questions.

[12:30] <Jowi> Ashfire908, my first instinct say it's a corrupt file if you don't have problems with other vids. not much to be done about it.
[12:31] <nickrud> j0han_, no, not unless you're using a proxy. If you're connecting from home, and you're not sure, you're not
[12:31] <__rocketman> !nfs
[12:31] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[12:31] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, i doubt it... the [   45.108000]    means  45 seconds..  so still during boot
[12:31] <Scunizi> JBeatnik: no queue exists.. just ask the question and if someone knows the answer they will respond.
[12:31] <JBeatnik> Ok, I'm currently running Fedora Core 7 at the suggestion of my Linux Administrator friend, b/c thats what he runs on his servers, though I'm running a home desktop looking to convert from Microshaft.
[12:31] <Jowi> JBeatnik, there's no queue. ask a question and be specific. the more detailed you are the more chance you have to get the question answered.
[12:32] <knoppix> hey ive just bootsraped a system but i didnt get the !grub right if i just restore my grub will it work or do i need to chroot and stuff
[12:32] <JBeatnik> I'm a computer science major with a good grasp of commands and linux arcitecture, know how to work it, but Fedora Core just seems like a lot of work out of the box so far.

[12:32] <JBeatnik> and a lot of my stuff doesn't work like NDISwrapper on my Broadcom 9504 chipset for wireless.
[12:32] <Nomad``> is it possible to get all the buttons on a Logitech G5 mouse working just by modifying xorg.conf, or am i going to have to install some extra program?
[12:32] <JBeatnik> Well, I was wondering about Ubuntu distros
[12:32] <zeroaudience> wow it's hard when you don't know what to look for :D
[12:33] <nickrud> j0han_, that's why I needed to get my feisty working again; I think it's libjavaplugin_oji.so , but not sure
[12:33] <zeroaudience> serenityUK: no but I'll try
[12:33] <Scunizi> JBeatnik: try a live cd and see how it runs on your computer..
[12:33] <j0han_> nickrud ok
[12:33] <JBeatnik> I'm wondering of Ubuntu Studio is a low latency kernel
[12:33] <zeroaudience> in a few hours I'm off to France for holydays, be back in a week
[12:33] <zeroaudience> thanks a lot by now
[12:33] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, is there anything in common when it happens... running a certain program etc.. we need to narrow it down
[12:33] <Flannel> JBeatnik: it is
[12:34] <__rocketman> JBeatnik: I'd say Kubuntu is the best of the *buntus
[12:34] <JBeatnik> ok, so studio is specially formatted for audio recording and graphics tools.
[12:34] <dug_> JBeatnik: broadcom has issues on most linux platforms I think, but there are instructions for some broadcom cards like this one: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297092&highlight=dell+1501
[12:34] <zeroaudience> nothing really
[12:34] <Scunizi> JBeatnik: Ubuntu Studio is not "officially" supported .. it's a branch.
[12:34] <JBeatnik> but are there any other low latency kernels?
[12:34] <zeroaudience> Ithe system just did the HD force check
[12:34] <Who_> hia ll,
[12:34] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, have a nice holiday anyway...  the new ubuntu is out in 6 weeks maybe that will fix it :)
[12:34] <zeroaudience> yeah I hope it
[12:34] <knoppix> hey ive just bootsraped a system but i didnt get the !grub right if i just restore my grub will it work or do i need to chroot and stuff
[12:34] <JBeatnik> See, I'm a musician, programmer, graphic artist, MUD Admin, Student and author.
[12:35] <RkyRaccoon> can somebody help me with getting my wireless card recognized by ubuntu?
[12:35] <Who_> I want to install Ubuntu on a computer with no CDROM and only a wireless (read hard to configure) network connection. I have a USB hard disk
[12:35] <JBeatnik> I'm looking for a low latency kernel that can do a good breadth of stuff. :P
[12:35] <zeroaudience> this thing happened back in july too, but as it was very hot I did assume it was temperature
[12:35] <dug_> RkyRaccoon: what wireless card do you have?
[12:35] <zeroaudience> evidently it's not
[12:35] <Flannel> JBeatnik: how would lowlatency be helpful there?
[12:35] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, have you tried running an old kernel from the grub menu?  you could try the previous one see if more stable
[12:35] <JBeatnik> audio recording
[12:35] <RkyRaccoon> dug_ linksys wireless G
[12:35] <RkyRaccoon> dug_, it used to work
[12:35] <zeroaudience> I try this too, thanks a lot mate ;)
[12:35] <serenityUK> gl
[12:35] <knoppix> JBeatnik, if your looking at choosing a kernel then ubuntu aint what you should be looking at
[12:36] <RkyRaccoon> dug, then i moved
[12:36] <zeroaudience> but God how little I know after two years of Ubuntu :D
[12:36] <Flannel> JBeatnik: Low latency by definition doesn't do a "breadth" of stuff.  But you can always have -lowlatency and regular ones, and switch between them.
[12:36] <velko> knoppix, what do you mean by "just restore your grub"? the config file? and the answer depends on what went wrong: if the grub executable is correctly installed just updating the config file is ok. if not - you have to do the chroot stuff
[12:36] <__rocketman> JBeatnik: recall I used standard kubuntu with jack, ardour etc -- there was a low latency tweak which I forget right now , but it was in the ubuntu community docs
[12:36] <zeroaudience> easy sometimes is bad :)
[12:36] <hopender> How do I get window fire =/
[12:36] <RkyRaccoon> dug_ i know the card is fine because it works with my windows boot
[12:36] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, you could also try creating a new user account... maybe some setting is bad and a clean user will be ok
[12:36] <JBeatnik> so I can run Kubuntu and tweak into it low latency?
[12:36] <knoppix> velko, the MBR is still there but there nothing on the boot partition
[12:37] <JBeatnik> I like Ubuntu so far for its prepackaged software and ease of use.
[12:37] <dug_> JBeatnik: i would just get ubuntu studio like you said, you want to do audio/video stuff, it is best
[12:37] <zeroaudience> I was thinking that I might just go for a fresh install when back
[12:37] <Nomad``> how would i check to make sure all the buttons on my Logitech G5 mouse are really working properly? i've modified my xorg.conf and the left/right tilt work, but the thumb button doesn't seem to do anything..
[12:37] <JBeatnik> Ok, but can studio do server stuff as well?
[12:37] <zeroaudience> thanks again serenityUK ;)
[12:37] <Flannel> JBeatnik: Just run the regular kernel, and also install the lowlatency one as well, which is in the regular repos.
[12:37] <serenityUK> zeroaudience, good luck mate
[12:37] <zeroaudience> cheers :D
[12:38] <atomyku> sal
[12:38] <JBeatnik> can you change between kernels and mount the same data partitions?
[12:38] <dug_> RkyRaccoon: sorry, i can't find instructions for setting up linksys wireless cards in ubuntu, you might ask on the ubuntu forum or else someone else here might know (i hav e a dell card so can't help you myself)
[12:38] <__rocketman> JBeatnik: dpkg, apt-get etc package management is the BEST
[12:38] <__rocketman> JBeatnik: will look up what I did
[12:38] <dug_> !linksys
[12:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about linksys - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:38] <velko> JBeatnik, yes you can
[12:38] <RkyRaccoon> dug_ can you think of any reason why it would suddenly stop recognizing it?
[12:38] <serenityUK> hopender, do you mean when you close the window and it burns in flames?
[12:38] <Flannel> JBeatnik: Of course.  It's identical to switching between kernel versions after upgrades
[12:39] <guardian_> how do you remove autojoin chanels from X-chat?
[12:39] <hopender> yes serentiy
[12:39] <JBeatnik> aaah
[12:39] <dug_> RkyRaccoon: sorry, don't know.  if you type 'iwconfig' in the terminal, it doesn't list anything then?
[12:39] <Jowi> JBeatnik, the kernel and the data partitions are not linked in any way to each other (other than you can put a kernel on your root disk)
[12:39] <JBeatnik> so you just pop it at the login screen
[12:39] <JBeatnik> well, the bootup screen
[12:39] <thedash> I upgraded my kernel and now have no sound :(
[12:39] <Flannel> JBeatnik: GRUB Menu, yeah.
[12:39] <dug_> guardian_: right click on channel, and uncheck auto join
[12:39] <Jowi> thedash, chose the older kernel from the grub menu.
[12:39] <guardian_> oh.. cool.. thanks dug ;)
[12:39] <JBeatnik> So i can GRUB two different kernels and choose when I want to do audio for it.
[12:40] <hopender> Yes SerenityUK
[12:40] <RkyRaccoon> dug_ yea it does
[12:40] <Flannel> JBeatnik: right
[12:40] <serenityUK> hopender, you need to run either beryl or compiz-fusion and have the drivers installed for your graphics card
[12:40] <thedash> Jowi :: my GRUB is also dead atm, not sure why
[12:40] <hopender> I have compiz-fusion installed
[12:40] <hopender> and my drivers
[12:40] <Jowi> JBeatnik, yes. I have one kernel especially for my VIA-EPIA board and a generic one
[12:40] <hopender> what is it under
[12:40] <thedash> Jowi :: wouldn't it be better to get it working for the new kernel anyways ?
[12:40] <xertux> is there a ati driver against fglrz !
[12:40] <dug_> RkyRaccoon: and if you go to system->administration->Network, maybe you can enable the wireless card?  sorry if you already tried all this
[12:40] <flush> yo
[12:40] <JBeatnik> Ok, but ubuntu studio isn't supported, so whats the big difference between studio and normal ubuntu besides low latency and prepackaged software?
[12:40] <xertux> is there a ati driver against fglrx ?
[12:40] <Flannel> JBeatnik: just after you install Ubuntu, installl the `linux-lowlatency` package, and you'll have the low latency kernel
[12:41] <flush> how comes no matter what i set to vertsync and horizrefresh in xorg.conf my refresh rates stays the same
[12:41] <flush> how do i change it ??
[12:41] <serenityUK> hopender, it's under animations in compizconfig-settings-manager..  you want the close animation let me check
[12:41] <Jowi> thedash, unless there is a special reason/feature you need in the newer kernel, no.
[12:41] <PriceChild> JBeatnik, nothing, they have the same base
[12:41] <GuyFromHell> nickrud: Good news. i'm currently speaking from my linux on the laptopt :)
[12:41] <Jowi> thedash, newer is not always better when it comes to kernel versions
[12:41] <Xero> Compiz Fusion isn't very stable for me.
[12:41] <JBeatnik> so i could just install normal ubuntu, which is supported, and then install low latency kernel, and then install all that prepackaged graphic/video/audio software?
[12:41] <Xero> I like Beryl better simply because it doesn't segfault when I change a setting.
[12:42] <serenityUK> hopender, it's called BURN  in the animations section... with the lamp like in alladin
[12:42] <xertux> is there a ati driver against fglrx ?
[12:42] <nickrud> GuyFromHell, very good news ;) How'd you do it
[12:42] <JBeatnik> or would it be easier to get ubuntu studio and install the other stuff from it?
[12:42] <thedash> Jowi :: well, I think I had this same problem with the older kernel, I just don't remember how I fixed it then
[12:42] <cal_> anyone good with networking in general, outside ubuntu?
[12:43] <GuyFromHell> nickrud: basically what you said, and a little bit of fiddling in the grub menu when it opened up (update-grub didn't seem to have set it properly)
[12:43] <Pici> cal_: #networking
[12:43] <hopender> serenityUK: How do I work it, do I uncheck all except Burn?
[12:43] <J-_> What package qt4 package do I install to install qt4?
[12:43] <nickrud> GuyFromHell, great. Good fiddling ;)
[12:43] <dug_> JBeatnik: i still would just install ubuntu studio from their dvd, if you are starting from scratch anyway: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntustudio_7.04
[12:44] <HomerSimpson> Hi Guys.. I want to change the console resolution on my Feisty server. Setting vga=791 causes the error "You passed an undefined mode number" I think I'm missing a component, as this works on my desktop version. Can anyone help?
[12:44] <serenityUK> hopender, no those check boxes are for setting up random...  you see the closeeffect/duration//window match list at the top?
[12:44] <hopender> yeah
[12:44] <serenityUK> hopender, the first close effect might say glide2?
[12:44] <Flannel> HomerSimpson: try vga=ask, and you'll see the available modes
[12:44] <Jowi> thedash, "no sound" can mean so many things. either a kernel module for your soundcard is not loaded (modprobe) or you have other issue. see !sound for general troubleshooting
[12:44] <hopender> oh ok i got it now
[12:44] <__rocketman> JBeaknik: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=534467&page=2
[12:45] <serenityUK> hopender, double click on the first one and choose burn from the menu
[12:45] <HomerSimpson> OK... will do
[12:45] <dug_> JBeatnik: but here are instructions for upgrading from regular ubuntu to ubuntu studio: http://www.ubustu.com/globe/2007/05/23/add-ubuntu-studio-to-an-existing-ubuntu-install/
[12:45] <J-_> If I want to install qt4, what package do I install?
[12:45] <GuyFromHell> nickrud: (previous experience with gentoo helped a bit too :P)
[12:45] <GuyFromHell> nickrud: either way, thanks
[12:45] <mchris> Hello, is there command to connect to a wireless network while in recovery mode and unable to start x?
[12:45] <JBeatnik> sweet, this is really awesome, thanks guys. :)
[12:45] <nickrud> GuyFromHell, ah, you've decided to become an apostate then
[12:45] <Ashfire908> jowi: got a new file. same issue
[12:45] <_pepo_> hi friends
[12:45] <velko> J-_, apt-cache search qt4
[12:46] <HomerSimpson> Flannel: Cheers
[12:46] <Nomad``> i've been following this guide to get my Logitech G5 mouse working http://adterrasperaspera.com/blog/2006/06/20/logitech-g5-review-under-linux/  - is the xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap step necessary ? what does it do, exactly?
[12:46] <Jowi> Ashfire908, if i understand you correctly - sometimes the sound stop and sometimes the video?
[12:46] <JBeatnik> Ok, one final question, then I'll get to installing: I have a Creative Labs ZS2, with the audio jacks in the front and all? What kind of support does it have under Ubuntu? Fedora Core runs it through ALSA or something.
[12:47] <J-_> velko: looking in synaptic, there are a slew of qt4 packages. Not sure which one to install to get Qtpfsgui working.
[12:47] <gustavold> dug_: Well, I made what they in that bug report... but it didn't work for me... =(
[12:47] <_pepo_> please, I wanna use some GUI for WPA, if just use wpa-supplicant its work but with network-manager-gnome I cant see WPA options
[12:47] <velko> J-_, what is Qtpfsgui? in which programming language?
[12:47] <dug_> Nomad``: I don't know, but this thread has more info too: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=416688
[12:48] <nickrud> Nomad``, it sets the custom key definitions you've defined in .Xmodmap
[12:48] <Qui-Gon> hi there :d
[12:48] <Vendeta> How to get the list of available user in a channel??? im using xchat
[12:48] <J-_> velko: velko Qt4 is required because it's the framework the graphical interface was built on
[12:48] <Vendeta> How to get the list of available user in a channel??? im using xchat
[12:48] <J-_> err
[12:48] <Ashfire908> jowi: sound stops
[12:48] <dug_> gustavold: I would probably post your issue on the ubuntu forum then to get more eyes on it, and say you already tried what was in that bug report
[12:48] <velko> J-_, i guessed that already
[12:49] <Ashfire908> jowi: then afer a few secounds, video
[12:49] <gustavold> dug_: thank you
[12:49] <Nomad``> dug_: thanks, i've been going through the links and instructions in that thread and have had some degree of success, but my back button still doesn't seem to work as far as i can tell
[12:49] <J-_> velko: It's a hdr image program.
[12:49] <__rocketman> JBeatnik: sounds like ubuntu studio might be worth trying, it's new though so bear in mind that it probably hasn't been as well tested -- then again I don't know how significant the changes are really
[12:49] <Nomad``> nickrud: does that command he uses in the guide actually set any key definitions? or is it just applying numbers to the mouse buttons?
[12:50] <JBeatnik> well, I'm used to program testing as a CompSci major.
[12:50] <JBeatnik> I'm sure I could play around with it. :D
[12:50] <Xero> It's too bad that in 2 years your degree will be obsolete. Sad but true.
[12:50] <velko> J-_, in which programming language? if it's a C program you need just the libqt4* stuff, if it's python - the python stuff, etc
[12:50] <Jowi> Ashfire908, personally I would try with another video player (vlc, mplayer or even totem-xine). if the problem is the same in all apps (which shouldn't happen) then I would think you've got hardware problem or could still be corrupted file. hard to say but that would be my guess.
[12:50] <J-_> velko: umm not sure let me check, thanks for the help.
[12:50] <JBeatnik> problem I had with fedora core 7 is that I'd get stuff that didn't have the requirements, then I'd try to find the requirements, and I'd have to slough though an rpm depository
[12:51] <JBeatnik> I just wanted to yum install everything but most of the time that didn't work
[12:51] <JBeatnik> :P
[12:51] <Jowi> Ashfire908, sorry I can't give more specific answer at this point.
[12:51] <nickrud> Nomad``, the way I read that is, don't add that configuration unless you have issues with the buttons after making the changes in the xorg.conf
[12:52] <__phil_> j ##hardware
[12:53] <Jowi> Ashfire908, normally you'd only have problem with either sound _or_ video. that's why my thoughts go to the hardware (specifically the mainboard) if the problem is on many videos.
[12:53] <nickrud> Nomad``, and probably the latter, the way I read   man Xmodmap
[12:53] <__rocketman> Xero:crap, provided a degree course is real computer science it will not become obsolete in our lifetimes --- if it was windows admin then head for mcdonalds
[12:53] <christian_> how do I forcefully shut down a program that is currently running? right clicking it , pressing stop and choosing forcfylly shut down doesn't work
[12:53] <Jowi> Ashfire908, but try with other player first of all.
[12:53] <jrib> christian_: system -> administration -> system monitor, but you can just type 'xkill' in a terminal, press etner, and then click on your app (easier)
[12:53] <Xero> __rocketman, Mostly true, but what happens when they make a language better than C++?
[12:53] <Nomad``> nickrud: i don't think my thumb button, button 8, is actually working. is there a way to test whether it's working or not? i tried kev (in terminal) but that gave me the same results even before i got the tilt buttons working :\
[12:54] <christian_> or to be exact, the "close" tab that comes up when right clicking it is greyed out
[12:54] <christian_> jrib, thanks will try that
[12:54] <Nomad``> nickrud: i'm gonna go ahead and try the xmodmap thing and see what happens, i think. thanks :)
[12:54] <nickrud> Nomad``, sounds like a plan :)
[12:54] <Xero> I have 2 thumb buttons and neither works as its own button.
[12:54] <Xero> One of them right clicks, the other does nothing,.

[12:56] <JBeatnik> <--installing. :D
[12:56] <Xero> I don't need my thumb buttons.
[12:56] <Xero> I just need the almighty scroll wheel we all take for granted.
[12:57] <christian_> If you have installed the GNOME (default for Ubuntu) environment you ALREADY have the software needed to get the "4th" and "5th" mice buttons working (forward/backward on most mice)!
[12:57] <christian_> but what software? :o
[12:57] <Xero> Have you ever thanked your scroll wheel for what it does for you? No. It's overworked, underpaid, and underappreciated.
[12:57] <serenityUK> Xero, do you have a line that says      Option         "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"    in your xorg.conf file?
[12:57] <Xero> Yes.
[12:57] <flush> damnit
[12:57] <flush> how the heck do you edit refresh rate with xstupidorg.conf, its 5/5 frustrating
[12:58] <flush> why doenst it consider what i put in the file
[12:58] <kahrytan> dug_, hey I got it working now
[12:58] <flush> its absurd
[12:58] <flush> could someone post me his xorg file
[12:58] <flush> if he got 85hz working
[12:58] <mchris> Hello, is there command to connect to a wireless network while in recovery mode and unable to start x?
[12:58] <Xero> That's why they're making Gutsy.
[12:58] <dug_> kahrytan: great, what did you have to do
[12:58] <kahrytan> change the icon
[12:59] <serenityUK> flush, do you have nvidia drivers?
[12:59] <dug_> kahrytan: so you just changed the png and the icon changed then?
[12:59] <lashmoove> what should I look for in avidemux if my audio is out of sync with the video?
[12:59] <flush> serenityUK yes
[12:59] <Jowi> flush, if you want to force a specific refreshrate you put "VertRefresh 85" in Section Monitor.
[12:59] <kahrytan> dug_, added the  distributor-logo.png to icon theme. odd though, It didnt work before
[12:59] <hopender> Anybody know a good music downloading program

[01:00] <Xero> mv /dev/flush /helpme
[01:00] <[-Rage-] > anyone here play css?
[01:00] <serenityUK> flush, if you are using the restriced drivers or downloaded from the website you can type   gksu nvidia-settings    there is a nice  control panel to set up your screen on nvidia
[01:00] <Jowi> flush, then the driver and/or monitor might not support it in the resolution you want.
[01:00] <flush> let me see
[01:00] <Grungebunny> hmm... my mouse is acting weird.. I think it may be the updates.. is anyone elses mouse seem off or funny?
[01:00] <Xero> Nope.
[01:00] <Xero> Mouse workin here on Gutsy
[01:00] <__rocketman> mchris: sudo ifup wlan0   (or eth1 or whatever your wireless interface is called)
[01:01] <serenityUK> flush, Then you must press the button to save the changes to xorg.conf file..   that is why you have to run it as root or it can't save the changes
[01:01] <[-Rage-] > No one here plays counter strike source?
[01:01] <rockets> If I install ubuntu server, install linux-image-generic, and then install xubuntu-desktop, it will basically be a standard xubuntu install right?
[01:01] <flush> hrmm i see nvidia-settings add "metamode"
[01:02] <SSL> [-Rage-]  go go go
[01:02] <flush> maybe its "metamode" i need, and not "modeline"
[01:02] <flush> rawrr, let me try
[01:02] <serenityUK> flush  you can pick you refresh rate and click apply to change on the fly...
[01:02] <Jowi> flush modelines overrides VertRefresh afaik
[01:03] <serenityUK> flush  you just need to save the changes so they stick when you reboot
[01:04] <Makegho> oh sigh, there's a plenty of documentation about this wireless connection stuff but after all these hours I'm still stuck.. I already got wlan working in non-secure mode but now I'd like to get it work with wpa but it seems impossible.
[01:04] <serenityUK> rockets, yes i did that on my old laptop,, but you wont have many applications installed
[01:04] <serenityUK> rockets, it's good for a small/old system
[01:04] <rockets> serenityUK, I'll have everything that comes with xubuntu./
[01:04] <rockets> serenityUK, its a PIII 800 Mhz 128 MB ram
[01:04] <dug_> Makegho: what card and driver are you using, sometimes i think wpa doesn't work unless you use ndiswrapper, but don't quote me on that
[01:04] <rockets> so im using xubuntu
[01:05] <soundray> Makegho: some drivers just don't support WPA. If all else fails, secure your connection by setting up a VPN.
[01:05] <serenityUK> rockets, that would be fine... you can always apt-get anything you want.. like leafpad rtorrent etc
[01:05] <rockets> yeah i know
[01:05] <Ltar> Is there a website I can post my xorg.conf for help?
[01:05] <Katsu_> Hello, would someone be willing to help me out with an nVidia driver problem?
[01:05] <rockets> Ltar, pastebin.com
[01:05] <serenityUK> rockets, have you tried leafpad.... loads as fast as notepad on windows
[01:05] <Makegho> dug_: I'm using ndiswrapper with RTL-8185 drivers that came with the pci card
[01:05] <rockets> serenityUK, whats wrong with mousepad
[01:05] <Ninja> Has anyone tried remastering an Ubuntu CD
[01:06] <Jowi> !pastebin | Ltar
[01:06] <ubotu> Ltar: 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)
[01:06] <gustavold> hi all, how can the system's language?
[01:06] <Makegho> it's some A-Link, don't remember exactly.
[01:06] <m0u5e> anyone know how to get rid of the gnome_screensaver_control() from mplayer?
[01:06] <Ninja> I'm working with the alternate CD and I can't make it work
[01:06] <gustavold> hi all, how can I change the system's language?
[01:06] <soundray> gustavold: System-Administration-Language
[01:06] <serenityUK> rockets, i just mean compared to gedit it's really light
[01:06] <hopender> Anybody know a good music downloading program
[01:06] <Ninja> if you copy the cd to the drive, create an iso image and burn to CD. It won't work
[01:07] <Ninja> I'm trying to find out why
[01:07] <Katsu_> When i install the nvidia driver from either the restricted driver manager or envy, i freeze after login
[01:07] <fireland71> join #elisairaat
[01:07] <hopender> Kastu_ Download Envy and install that and install your driver through that., I had the same problem but Envy is ownage and installs your drivers for you
[01:08] <sauvin> Ninja, how do you define "work"?
[01:08] <nickrud> Ninja, if you're trying to copy a bootable iso, do    dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/path/to/iso bs=1024  . Then burn that
[01:08] <dug_> Makegho: from some searching, it appears that a lot of people have problems with that card, so i guess be happy regular wireless is working :) http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=ndiswrapper+RTL-8185+wpa&btnG=Search
[01:08] <hopender> Kastu_: http://albertomilone.com/ubuntu/nvidia/scripts/envy_0.9.7-0ubuntu8_all.deb
[01:08] <Ninja> nickrud: I want to make some changes to it
[01:08] <Katsu_> hopender; Hmm, i tried that and it installed it just fine, but after about 2 minutes my mouse and keyboard freeze
[01:08] <rockets> Does the open source "nv" driver have 3D for older cards, like the RIVA TNTs and stuff like that
[01:08] <gustavold> soundray: where can I found it?
[01:08] <velko> hopender, what do you mean by music downloading program? torrent client? podcast downloader? something else?
[01:08] <serenityUK> hopender, did burn work for you?    i can recommend Beam Up for minimize it looks like a transporter effect
[01:09] <Ninja> sauvin: It boots to the menu, starts the install where it asks for language, keyboard etc.. and then complains about the "Release" file.
[01:09] <hopender> yeah it worked alright ill try beamup
[01:09] <soundray> gustavold: it's the third menu on the left in the top panel.
[01:09] <hopender> Velko: Something like limewire
[01:09] <soundray> gustavold: ...if you have ubuntu with gnome.
[01:09] <Jowi> Ninja, either https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization or https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization?action=show&redirect=InstallCDCustomizationHowTo might help you
[01:09] <serenityUK> hopender, you can get limewire pro fir linux...  also frostwire is a free version of limewire
[01:09] <hopender> haha beamup is neat
[01:10] <Makegho> dug_: oh :( that's a pity. An open non-crypted wireless network isn't very much a possibility.
[01:10] <velko> hopender, limeware? i'll have to look it up in google
[01:10] <m0u5e> anyone know any good drop down terminal windows?
[01:10] <tuxhacker> hi
[01:10] <m0u5e> that work with compiz-fusion?
[01:10] <Ninja> Jowi: I've seen them. They give you some info but that last one doesn't work
[01:10] <soundray> !vpn | Makegho
[01:10] <ubotu> Makegho: From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[01:10] <Ninja> Jowi: well, it didn't work for me
[01:10] <dug_> Makegho: are you using feisty?
[01:10] <Makegho> dug_: yepp
[01:11] <serenityUK> velko, it's a gnuttella java client, there is a free version called frostwire for linux, also limewire runs on linnux too
[01:11] <Ltar> http://pastebin.com/m20fa22b2
[01:11] <Ltar> I am unhappy about this, and unprepared to fix the problem via console only.
[01:11] <tuxhacker> whats better ubuntu 7.04 or ubuntu 6.06 LTS?
[01:11] <dug_> Makegho: here's an rtl driver, not sure if it supports wpa though: http://rtl-wifi.sourceforge.net/wiki/Main_Page
[01:11] <gustavold> soundray: sorry, I though system-administration-language was a tool... lol
[01:11] <dug_> Makegho: found it from this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2536955
[01:11] <decay> Ltar, seems like you didnt install your driver properly
[01:12] <Ltar> dug_: what was the read-only ext3 browser you said got good reviews for being simple? I may have a use for it
[01:12] <__rocketman> Makegho: cmon let's not give up yes, let us know how have it set up so far -- what's in your /etc/network/interfaces file?
[01:12] <Grungebunny> serenityUK I get a white screen only when I run limewire is there an alternative?
[01:12] <Strav> hi. I'm having a small problem with alsa which I cannot get to know where it comes from. Sometimes after booting, sound is disabled  and nothing gets it back (changing sound system, restarting alsa, X, etc) unless I reinstall every alsa libs and stuff then reboot. I suspect this problem began to happend a short while after I installed a realtime kernel and jackd... Anyone have an idea?
[01:12] <tuxhacker> whats better ubuntu 7.04 or ubuntu 6.06 LTS?
[01:12] <Jowi> tuxhacker, depends on what you're after. LTS for stability, 7.04 for features i would say.
[01:12] <Makegho> soundray: thanks. Though I don't believe I can set up a VPN between this computer and the access point. :)
[01:12] <tuxhacker> oh
[01:12] <decay> otherwise it wouldn't sat Generic Video Card
[01:12] <serenityUK> Grungebunny, yes frostwire is almost identical i belive.. but its a free version
[01:12] <decay> it would have your card's name
[01:12] <akwes> x
[01:12] <SNowbor1> hi
[01:12] <akwes> wtf
[01:13] <akwes> eny one pl ?
[01:13] <akwes> heare ?
[01:13] <Katsu_> Does anyone know what I should do about my driver problem: When i use Envy (or any other method) to install my Ge-Force 6600 Gt card my mouse and keyboard freeze after about 2 minutes after login
[01:13] <VSpike> Ltar: I didn't think the open ati driver supported the x1900 series
[01:13] <soundray> Makegho: it's possible with a decent access point
[01:13] <dug_> Ltar: can't remember, but here's one: http://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/  i'll look at logs to see the other one
[01:13] <gustavold> soundray: there I can setup new users' language... will it work for existing users?
[01:13] <Grungebunny> serenityUK will I have to do any crazy untaring and all that ? im terrible at it.
[01:13] <Strav> tuxhacker, if you're looking for both features and stability just wait until october, when gutsy comes out
[01:13] <akwes> connect #polska
[01:13] <Makegho> soundray: oh! interesting
[01:13] <SlimeyPete> explore2fs, surely?
[01:13] <akwes> ...
[01:13] <soundray> Makegho: Linksys WRT54GL and OpenWrt for example.
[01:14] <Jowi> tuxhacker, as Strav said, Gutsy will be the new LTS
[01:14] <Makegho> soundray: oh, I have WRT56GL
[01:14] <akwes> how can i change channel ?
[01:14] <Makegho> *54
[01:14] <dug_> Ltar: i guess xchat doesn't save logs by default, and i quit and restarted earlier, sorry
[01:14] <soundray> gustavold: I think you have to do it user by user.
[01:14] <SlimeyPete> akwes:  /join #channelname
[01:14] <Firebird> type /join #channelname
[01:14] <tuxhacker> what do you use firefox or opera
[01:14] <soundray> !openwrt
[01:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about openwrt - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:14] <SlimeyPete> dug_: I think you said explore2fs
[01:14] <SlimeyPete> I remember because I remember thinking "yeah, explore2fs is good"
[01:15] <dug_> Ltar: SlimeyPete says try explore2fs
[01:15] <serenityUK> Grungebunny, you can download a .deb file and double click on it to install here is a tutorial https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire   you will need java installed
[01:15] <Jowi> tuxhacker, sorry, i gave you wrong info. 8.04 will be the new LTS
[01:15] <Makegho> __rocketman: in that interfaces file there's "auto lo" "iface lo inet loopback" "iface wlan0 inet dhcp" "wireless-essid mynetwork" "auto wlan0"
[01:15] <Strav> I bet something is messing with my configuration... Anyone had issues after installing the realtime kernel with jackd?
[01:15] <Ltar> that's it, explore2fs. thanks SlimeyPete
[01:16] <soundray> Makegho: are you sure you can't use the native RTL driver instead of ndiswrapper? I'm pretty sure you'd get WPA with that.
[01:16] <gustavold> soundray: I've changed the language and clicked on update. But it doesn't work. Do I need to restart the xorg?
[01:16] <Strav> Jowi, gutsy isn't lts anymore?
[01:16] <VSpike> Can anyone suggest a good way to share contact lists between a bunch of MS Outlook users and one Ubuntu user, i.e. me?
[01:16] <Makegho> soundray: I couldn't get it to work.
[01:16] <__rocketman> Makegho: are you running OpenWRT on your router?
[01:16] <soundray> gustavold: yes, logging out should be enough.
[01:17] <dug_> VSpike: are you guys using an exchange server?  are you using evolution in ubuntu?
[01:17] <Makegho> __rocketman: uh.. I have no idea what that is or whether I'm using it or not
[01:17] <Jowi> Strav, it never was supposed to be. Hardy will be LTS.
[01:17] <Strav> VSpike, there are applications for that I'm pretty shure... forgot their names though.
[01:17] <soundray> Makegho: does the serialmonkey project have a driver for your card?
[01:17] <dug_> Makegho: did you try this driver? http://rtl-wifi.sourceforge.net/wiki/Main_Page
[01:17] <VSpike> dug_: nope, no exchange server.  I've been using Evolution, but considering switching to Thunderbird
[01:17] <Strav> Jowi, hmmm. damn. I wonder what made me think that...
[01:17] <soundray> Makegho: I take it all back (RTL=Realtek, not Ralink...)
[01:18] <Strav> Jowi, and btw, when is it scheduled?
[01:18] <eegore> is there a replacement for peerguardian?
[01:18] <VSpike> I originally hoped LDAP would be the answer, but because of the different way every application uses LDAP it's almost impossible I think
[01:18] <__rocketman> Makegho: if you don't know then you are not using openwrt (you would have flashed the firmware yourself!). You should be fine with the standard software though.
[01:18] <Ltar> hmmm
[01:18] <Jowi> Strav, 8.04 = 2008, month 04 :)
[01:18] <ianmcorvidae> Does anyone in here know of a tool I could use to combine many images into a PDF file?
[01:18] <knoppix> if im running
[01:18] <Katsu_> Will a motherboard effect my ability to have my nvidia driver function correctly?
[01:18] <Strav> :)
[01:18] <VSpike> I've seen some suggestions for lashups using schedule plus and Syncml
[01:18] <dug_> VSpike: Is just sharing a file good enough? (you can export from outlook and import addresses in thunderbird)
[01:19] <dug_> VSpike: oh i see nevermind
[01:19] <Ltar> i suppose I should have expected that my old xorg.conf file would have been configured to my old videocard. I need a generic ATI device section...
[01:19] <soundray> ianmcorvidae: Openoffice.org Draw
[01:19] <paul_> anyone know something about the wireless stuff here?
[01:19] <Strav> Jowi, I  finally understand it all ;) thanks
[01:19] <ianmcorvidae> soundray: Oh. Didn't think about OOo, thanks.
[01:19] <__rocketman> On your linux box I would set the /etc/network/interfaces file by hand with the appropriate WPA settings (and don't rely on a gui to set it for you)
[01:19] <VSpike> dug_: I think that's what they are suggesting yeah.  I mean, they were proposing that between the outlookers anyway
[01:19] <Ltar> x WAS working, and now is now... Is there any sort of generic default for not-quite supported videocards?
[01:19] <Jowi> any time Strav
[01:19] <konrad> soory, do u know how can i control my autostart ?:(  help
[01:19] <Makegho> dug_: yes but there was some problems I couldn't solve. Compilation (./makedrv) fails to ieee80211_softmac.c:2190:78: error: macro "INIT_WORK" passed 3 arguments, but takes just 2
[01:19] <VSpike> dug_: true enough, I forgot t-bird woudl do that
[01:19] <eegore> !peerguardian
[01:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about peerguardian - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:20] <knoppix> if im running a liveCD how do generate a menu.list for grub automatically
[01:20] <dug_> VSpike: probably evolution can too, i just haven't used it before
[01:20] <VSpike> there just *has* to be a better way
[01:20] <__rocketman> Makegho: like this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo?highlight=%28wpa%29#head-865d0d28eb6aad9e2faa5e869766fceecc12456d
[01:20] <Jowi> Ltar, the VESA driver should always work (without hardware accellerated graphics)
[01:20] <VSpike> dug_: nope, evolution can't .  The recommended way to (by evo docs) to get outlook data imported is go via thunderbird
[01:20] <Strav> konrad, I'm with you on this one, since the change on inits I couldn't figure out how to edit that besides of going to "services" in the system/admin menus
[01:21] <Ltar> Jowi: do you have a handy device section of xorg.conf, using Vesa?
[01:22] <madera> Hello. Is there a GUI utility to configure Apache2?
[01:22] <Ltar> or, how can I install the Vesa driver and ressucitate X without being able to boot to X?
[01:22] <serenityUK> Ltar, try  change Driver from "nvidia" or "ati"  to "vesa"
[01:22] <soundray> knoppix: I don't think that's possible. If it is, it's probably more difficult than just (re)creating the lost one.
[01:22] <madera> Ubuntu and apacheconf are not compatible I'm guessing, since it's using apache2
[01:22] <dug_> VSpike: that's crazy, i'm searching a little, but haven't found much yet
[01:23] <knoppix> soundray, ok thanks
[01:23] <paul_> can anyone get wireless to work just by using ifup eth1 this is the only way i can get mine to work network manager doesnt see the connection and everytime i try to use network manager it disconnects me
[01:23] <Jowi> Ltar, at serenityUK say or run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and go with the defaults except for video driver (vesa) and resolution (native res for your monitor).
[01:23] <Jowi> s/at/as/
[01:23] <serenityUK> Ltar, also you may have you a copy of your old xorg.conf..... look for xor.conf.backup or similar
[01:23] <Strav> Ltar, you can do this from command line. If you really did uninstalled vesa: apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-vesa
[01:23] <VSpike> thanks dug_
[01:23] <paul_> ok guess not
[01:24] <dug_> VSpike: you're right though, ldap could work, but i don't know how to set it up, here are some links: http://joseph.randomnetworks.com/archives/2006/02/08/active-directory-as-ldap-address-book-for-thunderbird-outlook-and-mailapp/ http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=ldap+thunderbird+outlook&btnG=Google+Search
[01:24] <Makegho> __rocketman: doesn't help.. maybe I should remove my older config somehow...? I have no idea what to do
[01:24] <Ltar> lemme write all this down
[01:24] <Strav> Ltar, then as said, modify your xorg.conf, change the driver back to vesa and if your xorg is really messed up:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[01:25] <Ltar> I found the backup!
[01:25] <serenityUK> yay.. you need to be root to copy it back Ltar
[01:25] <dug_> madera: if you want a web-based gui for starting/stopping apache2, there is webmin.  Otherwise do searches like this one: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=apache2+gui&btnG=Search
[01:25] <Ltar> im using XP right now
[01:26] <Strav> do boot X, only X you can do: xinit or to start the big gnome and friends: sudo gdm. (and make shure you killed all gdm processes if X failed to load: killall -9 gdm)
[01:26] <Ltar> editing the file using the EXT3 drivers
[01:26] <serenityUK> ok gl
[01:26] <Kopfgeldjaeger> bye
[01:26] <Strav> Ltar: just boot in rescue mode or wait until command line comes after X crashes in regular boot
[01:27] <Strav> then if you wanna come back here from command line: apt-get install ircII
[01:27] <__rocketman> Makegho: 1. make a backup of your /etc/network/interfaces file, 2. do you want WPA or WPA2 ?
[01:27] <Grungebunny> serenityUK hey thanks for tipping me of to frostwire I like it
[01:27] <Strav> and btw, you you wanna surf the web to try some things: apt-get install elinks
[01:27] <st0n3cutt3r> how do I get the gui disk manager up in ubuntu?
[01:28] <madera> dug_: Thanks for you response, but I always search before asking here.
[01:28] <Strav> Ltar, to edit your xorg.conf use nano if you're not used to vi
[01:28] <serenityUK> Grungebunny, good mate,  im a bit torrent fan myself  but for individual songs or something it can be good.. becarefull of fakes programs and stuff... stick to media... i like torrents because you can read the comments and get recommended stuff
[01:28] <Jowi> st0n3cutt3r, "gparted" is its name
[01:28] <st0n3cutt3r> thanks Jowi
[01:28] <dug_> st0n3cutt3r: see if you have gnome partition manager available under the system->administration menu
[01:29] <Ltar> Strav: i normally use gedit. using scintilla in windows right now, tho
[01:29] <Ltar> alrite, trying it out
[01:29] <st0n3cutt3r> dug_:  nah, it's not there
[01:29] <Strav> Ltar, you won't be able to use gedit in command line mode only
[01:29] <st0n3cutt3r> actually, I just did a system search for gparted; it can't find anything
[01:30] <serenityUK> Strav, no he was editing from windows using ext3 drivers
[01:30] <SNowbor1> st0n3cutt3r: gparted is not there by default
[01:30] <Strav> serenityUK, Yea but it's better to edit then test immediatly in linux
[01:30] <SNowbor1> only in the live version
[01:30] <dug_> st0n3cutt3r: you can go to Applications->Add/Remove and install gnome partition editor
[01:30] <SNowbor1> you have to isntall it
[01:30] <dredhammer> hello i need help, dma on my harddrive keeps turning itself off even though its enabled in hdparm.conf
[01:30] <Jowi> st0n3cutt3r, "sudo apt-get install gparted" also works
[01:31] <__rocketman> Makegho: still there?
[01:31] <Makegho> __rocketman: whichever works. At the moment I'm using WPA
[01:31] <Strav> anyone? randome sound problem after installing realtime kern?
[01:32] <FFighter> hello
[01:32] <st0n3cutt3r> awesome, thanks Jowi!
[01:32] <serenityUK> welcome
[01:32] <paul_> anyone ever had the problem with bm43xx not loading?
[01:32] <FFighter> I'm trying to install the "build-essentials" package but apt-get doesn't find t
[01:32] <FFighter> it
[01:32] <serenityUK> build-essential without the s
[01:32] <CoasterMaster> FFighter: no s
[01:33] <FFighter> CoasterMaster: Oh damn! THanx for the correction :)
[01:33] <Strav> anyone answered konrad? I wish to know too how can I modify autostart?
[01:33] <ltar> I'm booted into ubuntu succsessfully..
[01:33] <serenityUK> yay
[01:33] <ltar> but still 1024x786 :(
[01:33] <serenityUK> boo
[01:33] <arghh2D2>  I'm p!ssed off ubuntu!   I shouldnt run the "update manager" and expect it to rewrite my grub menu to exclude my windows partition.  Anybody explain that one???
[01:34] <ltar> this is irritating
[01:34] <Strav> ltar, you won't get a better resolution unless you properly install your graphic card drivers
[01:34] <ltar> i'll check the ATI wobsite
[01:34] <Makegho> __rocketman: could I need to tell it whether I'm using AES or this TKIP thingy?
[01:34] <Strav> ltar, vesa is just some generic thing without 3d accel btw
[01:34] <konrad> Strav - nobody :(
[01:34] <ltar> Strav: yeah, I gathered that much
[01:34] <serenityUK> ltar, i am an nvidia guy but i think there is an aticonfig program?
[01:34] <VSpike> dug_: AIUI, the problem is that different clients all use different schemas that are not compatible.  So LDAP allows you to share contact lists between homogenous clients but not heterogenous ones.
[01:35] <hopender> Ok i'm using Wine and it makes the programs slightly transparent, How do I get rid of this it is quite annoying in counter-strike
[01:35] <VSpike> dug_: I could be wrong, but that's what someone told me in #openldap and they sounded like they knew what they were talking about :)
[01:35] <Strav> ltar, there's a site dedicated to ati configuration issues that can help you out...
[01:35] <Jowi> hopender, what window manager are you using?
[01:35] <Strav> let me find that.
[01:35] <arghh2D2> all i did is run the builtin update and wham, i lose my windows partition.  Dont know who dropped the ball with that one but its causing me to lose respect for what i was beginning to think was a decent solid OS
[01:35] <ltar> Strav: thanks a ton
[01:35] <VSpike> dug_: also, I think evolution may be one of the few that can *write* to an LDAP server.  The rest (thunderbird, Outlook, Outlook Express) are read only
[01:35] <hopender> What do you mean window manager
[01:35] <hopender> I have compiz-fusion if thats what you mean
[01:36] <eegore> I guess I will have to use MoBlock then
[01:36] <brenton_> I'm using an Nividia riva 128 chip (very old) and it looks like my install is using software rendering (direct rendering is off). Would getting direct rendering on improve my performance when i'm in X
[01:36] <CHILY> I can't start ccsm (compiz fusion settings manager)
[01:36] <CHILY> it gives me KeyERror 'core'
[01:36] <arghh2D2>  I'm p!ssed off ubuntu!   I shouldnt run the "update manager" and expect it to rewrite my grub menu to exclude my windows partition.  Anybody explain that one??? WHY WHY WHY!!!???
[01:37] <Strav> ltar, btw what is your card?
[01:37] <arghh2D2> all i did is run the builtin update and wham, i lose my windows partition.  Dont know who dropped the ball with that one but its causing me to lose respect for what i was beginning to think was a decent solid OS
[01:37] <ckin2001> look for where your grub.conf file it
[01:37] <Jowi> hopender, hmmm. not sure about that one. I know in Beryl you can force set ARGB visuals for it (had that problem with some apps like qemu, wine and SDL apps)
[01:37] <ltar> radeon 1900xt
[01:37] <ckin2001> it usually backs it up
[01:37] <serenityUK> brenton_, enabel the restricted drivers  System->Admin->Restriced drivers
[01:37] <Strav> (if you're not shure check out type lspci in command line)
[01:37] <ltar> downloading from the ATI website now
[01:37] <__rocketman> Makegho: assume WPA2 unless you really have to use WPA, 3. choose an SSID for your network and ascii passphrase (8 chars say) and generate a hex key using "wpa_passphrase <ssid> <passphrase>" which gives you a hex key (all the stuff after "psk="). 4. set up your router with these details (it may want the passphrase or the hex key) 5. set up your /etc/network/interfaces, leaving the first two lines as they were (I mean the 2 lines with "lo"
[01:37] <__rocketman> in them) and replacing the rest as in the link I gave earlier, inserting the SSID and the hex key from wpa_passphrase, 6. reboot your router and your computer
[01:37] <brenton_> I did that, but it told me that there were no devices that needed them
[01:37] <hopender> Jowi: Where in beryl did you do that, cause Compiz-Fusion is beryl, beryl was just discontinued
[01:37] <frojnd> how can I check who else is connected va switch ?
[01:37] <Jowi> hopender, you should have a similar option in compiz-fusion i guess
[01:38] <ltar> Strav: it's a 1900 xt
[01:38] <hopender> Jowi where was it?
[01:38] <ltar> im sure because I put it in 2 days ago :)
[01:38] <brenton_> the card is from 1998, so i'm wondering if it was too old to register for that, or if something else is wrong
[01:38] <Jowi> hopender, i need to start up my beryl session to check. can you give me a minute?
[01:38] <hopender> sure
[01:38] <Jowi> brb
[01:38] <arghh2D2> I know how to fix it, but i was just thinking of leaving my mom here with ubuntu knowing she could always go back to windows if she wanted to...this crap cant be happening if you want this os to be taken seriously
[01:39] <Strav> ltar, and which version of ubuntu are you using?
[01:39] <ltar> Strav: 7.04
[01:40] <arghh2D2> so i wanna know, should i expect this to happen every time my mom clicks on update manager??
[01:40] <arghh2D2> yall act like you dont hear me
[01:40] <arghh2D2> pathetic
[01:40] <GuyFromHell> I keep getting Error 12: Invalid Device Requested  when i try to get into XP from grub

[01:41] <ltar> apt-get install ntfs-3g is no good
[01:41] <Jowi> hopender, in Beryl its in "Window Management" -> "Set window attribs by various criteria" -> "Disable ARGB visual" and there I added "c:SDL_App:1" for example.
[01:42] <dug_> arghh2D2: did you put the windows section in menu.lst where it wouldn't be overwritten?
[01:42] <Strav> ltar, check here, there's a user that had some issue with that card, perhaps it can help (if you already went through all the fglrx crap): http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=253224

[01:42] <Jowi> hopender, use xprop to get the window class needed
[01:42] <ltar> Strav: thanks
[01:42] <paul_> anyone can help me with this ?????
[01:43] <paul_> PLEASE?!
[01:43] <VSpike> arghh2D2: did you add the windows entry by hand or did the installer do it for you?
[01:43] <hopender> I found No Arg Visuals
[01:43] <hopender> what do i type in the text box
[01:43] <Strav> ltar, one this is for shure, you'll have much more trouble installing the proprietary drivers from ati than installing the ones provided by ubuntu... try the ati's drivers as your last resort
[01:43] <Esteth> ltar: The package is called "ntfs-3g" and "ntfs-config" if they don't work, you need to enable universe/multiverse
[01:43] <paul_> guess not
[01:43] <Esteth> paul_: what is the problem?
[01:43] <ltar> Esteth:  right. thanks. I forgot about the universe/,ultiverse
[01:44] <arghh2D2> VSpike, cool, i'm happy theres a fix for it, but i cant expect my mom to manage all that. she can barely email.   I guess the OS just isnt ready for average end users yet.
[01:44] <dug_> arghh2D2: make sure the Windows XP stuff is after this line in /boot/grub/menu.lst: ### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST

[01:44] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[01:44] <dug_> arghh2D2: if you make that change, it shouldn't be overwritten again next time you or your mother updates the kernel
[01:44] <arghh2D2> VSpike, it was the installer did it, but i switched em around in menu.lst to make windows autoload
[01:44] <Jowi> hopender, i hope i pushed you in the right direction anyway. gonna switch back to ion3 now :)
[01:44] <hopender> xD
[01:44] <hopender> whats ion3
[01:45] <Jowi> !info ion3

[01:45] <dug_> arghh2D2: higher in menu.lst, you can change the line that starts with "default" to "default		saved" or "default 1" or 2 or 3 to set a default os to boot to
[01:45] <arghh2D2> dug_, so does that make it impossible to auto load windows xp?
[01:45] <Makegho> __rocketman: I feel quite much that giving up is the right decision :/
[01:45] <ltar> Strav: the link you gave me, i've already don.e using ubuntu now with Vesa
[01:46] <VSpike> arghh2D2: If you're leaving your mum with the machine, set up openssh before you go.  That way you can get out of problem
[01:46] <batrix> anyone here familiar with getting lirc to work with xmms i'm struggling a bit here

[01:46] <Makegho> __rocketman: it's decided not to work and I can't trick it
[01:46] <mapp> lol
[01:46] <ltar> Strav:  attempting to use the ATI driver included with ubuntu made X cry
[01:46] <arghh2D2> glad this happened before i left
[01:46] <arghh2D2> thanks for the help
[01:46] <Esteth> paul_ you could setup those commands to run at startup? for network-manager, make sure you're using the right encryption key (hex/deciamal)
[01:47] <__rocketman> Makegho: just noticed the details in the link are for WPA (not WPA2), for WPA2 these settings should be: "wpa-proto RSN", "wpa-pairwise CCMP", "wpa-group CCMP"
[01:47] <ltar> strav: wait... they mention the AGP...
[01:47] <rummik> hey, I was wondering how to force a proxy for the entire system
[01:47] <ltar> is it possible to look that up without crashing X?
[01:47] <paul_> Esteth i have no encryption key it is open i live in the middle of no where so im not worried about encryption.
[01:47] <VSpike> arghh2D2: lines is e.g. "default   2", will auto load the third item in the list
[01:48] <ltar> in the meantime, remind me where the universe/multiverse settings are hidden?
[01:48] <Esteth> paul_: If you can get it running through those commands, i'd just set them to run after you login
[01:48] <Makegho> __rocketman: well, I'll try. It's useless though. :)
[01:49] <serenityUK> arghh2D2, it starts at zero and includes the blank line wich says "Other Operating Systems" or something
[01:49] <dug_> rummik: yeah there is a program to force network traffic through something, i'm trying to remember the name
[01:49] <__rocketman> Makegho: cmon don't give up!  it's working for me right now
[01:49] <paul_> Esteth: so just dont have network manager work at all?
[01:49] <frojnd> noone know how to chek who else is in LAN ??
[01:49] <ltar> ....
[01:50] <Esteth> pauk_: Yes. unless you need to change connections a lot, it's probably not worth trying to get network-manager working
[01:50] <ltar> I was exploring the menus and found the restricted drivers manager. ATI accelerated graphics driver is not in use?
[01:50] <Esteth> s/pauk/paul
[01:50] <ltar> im going to enable it and see what happens
[01:50] <ltar> i can't enable itr

[01:52] <serenityUK> ckin2001, not an intuitive program lol
[01:52] <paul_> Esteth: nah i want to figure it out.. i want network manager to work cause im back and fourth between access points and it should work
[01:52] <ckin2001> lol

[01:52] <ubuntu> I need to restore my grub, I have an old (edgy) kernel, which doesn't support the sata drive I have...What can I do?
[01:53] <Pretoriab> for some reason it seems to stop with the prompt initramfs ??
[01:53] <mguezuraga> I need to restore my grub, I have an old (edgy) kernel, which doesn't support the sata drive I have...What can I do?
[01:53] <Pretoriab> i just downloaded the 7.04 amd64 iso
[01:53] <dug_> rummik: drawing a blank, but i did find this, maybe search for 'transparent proxy': http://schools.coe.ru.ac.za/wiki/Configuring_transparent_proxy
[01:53] <Esteth> paul_: ahh, ok. Kind of useful then. Sorry if i can't help any furthur, i havn't had issues with network-manager + wireless since Feisty. Before i had to use ndiswrapper for drivers, but network-manager still worked
[01:53] <Strav> I go. thanks anyways for my sound problem. I'll spam the ubuntu forums plus launchpad ;)
[01:53] <__rocketman> Makegho: sounds good, did you manage to enter the passphrase on the router
[01:53] <Pretoriab> i also tried some Linux format discs with the same problem
[01:54] <Makegho> __rocketman: I used the previous passphrase. Yep.
[01:54] <serenityUK> mguezuraga, you can use the liveCD to fix grub,
[01:54] <Evil_Ed> sup

[01:54] <Makegho> rockets: which driver are you using and which card do you have?
[01:55] <Makegho> __rocketman*
[01:55] <paul_> Esteth: well mine came up with bm43xx drivers failing and i blacklisted them and used ndiswrappers to replace the drivers with bmwl5.inf
[01:55] <rummik> dug_: ok, thanks
[01:56] <mguezuraga> serenityUK> yes, the point is that the live cd I have has linux 2.6.15, which doesnt support this SATA driver
[01:56] <nevermind> hi all
[01:56] <paul_> Esteth: blacklisted them in /etc/modprobe.d/"blacklist"
[01:56] <serenityUK> welcome
[01:56] <nevermind> does anyone knows a way to make an ap allways open on a certain workspace?
[01:56] <bruenig> nevermind, devilspie
[01:57] <__rocketman> Makegho: I have an intel pro wireless. So you presumably have the SSID (or ESSID or wireless network name) entered in the router
[01:57] <paul_> Esteth: Rebooted and the drivers stopped.. but ndiswrapper drivers worked but it stays at eth1 dont know if it should be wlan0 or not..
[01:57] <Esteth> paul_: As far as i know, everything should work. what exactly doesn't work about network manager?
[01:57] <foo> videos on youtube freeze while playing. Any ideas? This is weird. The video is fully loaded... any idea?
[01:57] <nevermind> bruenig: wow, that was quick :P
[01:57] <__rocketman> Makegho: the other setting is whether the (E)SSID is visible or hidden -- make it visible for now
[01:57] <paul_> Esteth: kk thanks for trying.. you were the only one who answered..
[01:57] <serenityUK> mguezuraga, you can get mini rescu cd's which are much smaller downloads around 50mb or less...  look for super grub bootdisk
[01:57] <bruenig> nevermind, I use it, very handy, although I don't use the work space functionality
[01:58] <mguezuraga> serenityUK: thanks
[01:58] <nevermind> bruenig: wouldn't it conflict with compiz?
[01:58] <bruenig> nevermind, no
[01:58] <drama1981> anybody else have probs installing to an sata drive? installs fine but upon reboot says error loading os
[01:58] <Xero> Gutsy is fun.
[01:58] <nevermind> bruenig: oh, ok, cuz i'm already using the place plugin to make that work, but didn't know how to do the same with metacity
[01:58] <Jack_Sparrow> drama1981: single or dual drives
[01:58] <serenityUK> mguezuraga, ha super grub is only 400K http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/SuperGrubDiskPage.html
[01:58] <drama1981> single
[01:58] <serenityUK> mguezuraga, i was getting confused with gperted liveCD
[01:59] <ckin2001> gparted is hard
[01:59] <bruenig> nevermind, well if you have enabled similar functionality with compiz then yeah it would conflict, but if you just turn that plugin off, they coexist fine
[01:59] <__rocketman> Makegho: in the router settings I mean
[01:59] <arghh2D2> DAMN, not only grub gets shafted, my repositories are all fuggered up too!!   WTF???   Is this os even trying to be 'user friendly'??
[01:59] <ckin2001> it took me 20 minutes of partition manipulation to add 5 gigs to /
[01:59] <drama1981> i even deleted windows and the recovery partition that came on my pc with no luck
[01:59] <nevermind> bruenig: i'll give it a try, thanks for pointing directions
[01:59] <Xero> drama1981, reinstall.
[01:59] <Xero> If it still doesn't work, you have a TCPA motherboard.

[02:00] <Makegho> __rocketman: yes I do. It's annoying that this 'network-admin' tool only offers WEP... which didn't work either though. But yeah, I can't find anything related to that in the router settings
[02:00] <knoppix> im mmacking my grub but how do i get my kernel to /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-4-486 ?
[02:00] <bruenig> malocite, right click, properties, open with

[02:00] <malocite> bruenig: I did that, I can see the other programs there, but I cannot select them
[02:01] <bruenig> malocite, is there a custom command option? I know there is with xfce, not sure on gnome, that might be too confusing for gnome to implement
[02:01] <Xero> lol fun motion blur on beryl..
[02:01] <nailhead33> is there a firefox flash plugin for the 64 bit version of feisty?
[02:01] <bruenig> nailhead33, no

[02:01] <jrib> !flash > nailhead33 (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:01] <dug_> malocite: right click a file, then choose properties first, then click the open with tab and select the default

[02:02] <ltar> how to activate the universe and multiverse repositories?
[02:02] <nickrud> malocite, you need to be sure to hit the radio button
[02:02] <mguezuraga> serenityUK: ok, Ill try gparted or grub live cds
[02:02] <jrib> !repos > ltar (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:02] <malocite> bruenig: I don't think so...  I can see five other programs there, but it won't let me change the radio button
[02:02] <drama1981> feisty. could it have anything to do with my chipset being ati? i remember about 6 months ago i had a hell of a time because of that chipset when i was using ide on my other pc. idk if the sata controller is ati too but i imagine so if the ide is.
[02:02] <bruenig> radio button?
[02:02] <jrib> ltar: system -> administration -> software sources  basically, but see ubotu's message
[02:02] <ltar> jrib: thanks
[02:02] <mchris> Hello, I am getting a "no screens found" error when I use startx.  I've read that this can be fixed with apt-get upgrade but that isn't working.  Any other suggestions?  I've tried both ati and vesa drivers.  Have ati x1600.

[02:02] <ltar> they're already activated.
[02:02] <ltar> :?
[02:02] <malocite> nickrud: yeah, I am doing that, but nothing is changing, the highlighted option is changing but the radio button is static... I can't see anything on google about this either
[02:02] <jrib> nailhead33: I'd recommend using nspluginwrapper btw

[02:03] <drama1981> Jack_Sparrow it installs fine on my other pc. botha re identical aside from one has ide hdd and other is sata
[02:03] <dug_> malocite: i just did it.  right click an mp3 file, choose properties, click the 'open with' tab, then choose xmms and close
[02:04] <serenityUK> nailhead33, there is a script to install 64bit flash really easily

[02:04] <malocite> nickrud: Yup :)  (I'm slow, but not glacial :)
[02:04] <jrib> malocite: does this command return anything:  find ~/.local ! -user $USER

[02:05] <iterra> gutsy tribes 5 has a graphical x config tool, right? derivates like xubuntu too?
[02:05] <serenityUK> Siph0n, probably smb
[02:05] <dug_> ltar: you can use gparted (gnome partition editor)
[02:05] <malocite> jrib: Yes, quite a bit
[02:05] <ltar> thanks
[02:06] <malocite> jrib: about half of it is wine stuff
[02:06] <ltar> I thought that was it, but it wouldn't run. installing now
[02:06] <GuyFromHell_> how do i get this blasted grub autoconfiguration thingie to work and find my windows too
[02:06] <Siph0n> serenityUK: ok, and do u know if it matter what driver i am using? i selected the Postscript one because it said it was reccomended... and i guess it came with ubuntu
[02:06] <jrib> malocite: your config files are owned by root.  It usually happens becuase of using sudo with gui apps instead of gksudo.  Try this (it will change back the stuff in ~/.local but you should chown all of your HOME to be safe unless you know you want different ownership on something in your HOME): sudo chown -R $USER: ~/.local
[02:06] <serenityUK> ltar, you need to unmount a partition to change it in gparted... rightclick on it an unmount
[02:07] <nickrud> GuyFromHell_, you'll have to add that stanza yourself, I could never get update-grub to do that either
[02:07] <dredhammer> hello i need help, dma on my harddrive keeps turning itself off even though its enabled in hdparm.conf how do i keep dma enable?
[02:07] <Skillet^> Since upgrading to an Athlon X2 4000+ the generic kernels fail to boot for me.  Recovery mode shows them just stopping on "initializing root filesystem" or something to that effect
[02:07] <drama1981> dredhammer do you have the line ide=nodma in the grub boot line?
[02:08] <malocite> jrib: That did it!
[02:08] <Skillet^> I'm running 386 now without issue (except that only one core seems to be used, as expected)
[02:08] <niuq> hi i am trying to install macromedia dreamwweaver with wine, but it doesn't seems to work, any help would be welcome
[02:08] <serenityUK> sorry Siph0n that is specific to your printer.. have you searched for HP Laserjet 1200 in ubuntuforums.org?
[02:08] <malocite> jrib: I guess that doesn't happen to often, I wasn't able to find anything on google about it
[02:08] <nickrud> GuyFromHell_, be sure to add it outside the automagic stuff, and update-grub will leave it alone
[02:08] <GuyFromHell_> nickrud: darnit, the one i put isn't working and i think it has to do with windows being illogical (read: on a logical partition)
[02:08] <jrib> malocite: not the first time I've seen it here though :)
[02:08] <__rocketman> Makegho: so now your "/etc/network/interfaces" should read "auto lo" "iface lo inet loopback" "auto wlan0" "iface eth0 inet dhcp" "wpa-driver wext" "wpa-ssid YOURESSID" "wpa-ap-scann 1" "wpa-proto RSN" "wpa-pairwise CCMP" "wpa-group CCMP"  "wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK" "wpa-psk YOURLONGHEXKEY"

[02:09] <GuyFromHell_> nickrud: ... this is depressing how poorly this is working. makes me wonder if i really really need half-life 2 to work with sound or not...

[02:10] <Polygon89> knoppix, bf2 is no where near the quality hl2 is, come talk to me when the game stops confusing what team players are on.
[02:10] <dug_> marc: nevermind that doesn't work all the time if you close the terminal
[02:11] <nickrud> GuyFromHell_, you need a stanza to edit? Or does your gentoo experience rise to the occasion ;)
[02:11] <dredhammer> drama1981 it just turns itself off i don't know why
[02:11] <knoppix> Polygon89, read the menu.lst its descriptive
[02:11] <drama1981> dredhammer im not sure then. im still kinda new but that was my only guess

[02:11] <ltar> opinion poll- I have installed ext3 drivers in XP that seem to be working fine. I need to share a 120 gb volume between ubuntu and XP. format as FAT32 or ext3?
[02:11] <marc> dug_:  im trying to run vmwarE as root in thE tErminal
[02:11] <knoppix> ltar,  ext3 will be less fragmented
[02:11] <Makegho> __rocketman: it was approximately that. wpa-ap-scan was 2
[02:12] <niuq> i am trying to install dreamweaver with msiexec /i  macromedia.msi
[02:12] <Makegho> __rocketman: should I try to reboot?
[02:12] <niuq> and it get stuck at this part  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35994/
[02:12] <jrib> ltar: ext3 will let you keep permission info as well
[02:12] <hopender> Whats the sudo command to move a folder some where?
[02:12] <Polygon89> knoppix, i have the entries all set up fine, i just want to make it so that its like you have two different operating systems installed, right now its assuming i only have ubuntu installed, and the menu.lst doesnt have any intstructions on how to do this..
[02:12] <__rocketman> Makegho: 1=visible essid , 2=hidden essid to match the setting on your router
[02:12] <dug_> marc: try "nohup yourcommand &"
[02:12] <johnficca> nickrud: I asked about what graphic driver he is using and he said its Nvidia...thats not the open source one right?
[02:12] <malocite> jrib: now my next step is to find some games that work under linux... I'm bored now that I've figured out how to make everything else work
[02:12] <Moniker42> how do i link to IRC channels in html?
[02:12] <serenityUK> hopender, mv
[02:12] <Makegho> __rocketman: ok
[02:12] <niuq> the weird thing is that i've installed this before, and it just should work
[02:12] <dug_> marc: put sudo first if you want to run something as root
[02:12] <nickrud> johnficca, no, nv is the open source one
[02:12] <jrib> !games > malocite (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:12] <st0n3cutt3r> I know this doesn't belong in here, but if anybody can answer my question it would help me out a lot;        how do I configure grub so that I can change the location of Ubuntu in it from Disk 3 partition 2 to disk 3 partition 0?
[02:13] <GuyFromHell_> nickrud: the gentoo met the challenge (meaning i googled it) but i'm getting an error that google can't solve (specifically "Error 12: Invalid Device Somethingorother"
[02:13] <serenityUK> hopender, if you want to move a folder  user   mv -r      for recursive
[02:13] <malocite> oooo, fun :)
[02:13] <jrib> marc: you shouldn't need to run vmware as root...
[02:13] <johnficca> nickrud: I think I should tell him to use that one right
[02:13] <nickrud> GuyFromHell_, I haven't run across that one before
[02:13] <johnficca> nickrud: he dosen't play games or use the 3d desktop
[02:13] <Justi1> how do I make ubuntu detect a tv I connect with a s-video calbe?
[02:13] <__rocketman> Makegho: yes reboot, and then when it's back up do "sudo ifconfig"
[02:14] <knoppix> Polygon89,  take a look at line 33, then edit 34 to have right partition and decomment 33-36 and stick it
[02:14] <drama1981> Jack_Sparrow you still around?
[02:14] <nickrud> johnficca, <backspacing> yes, it'll be more troublefree
[02:14] <jrib> Justi1: what video driver are you using?
[02:14] <knoppix> somewhere in the file (start end whereever you want it listed)
[02:14] <Justi1> jrib: how do I check
[02:14] <hopender> serenityUK: Give me an example of how to use it
[02:14] <jrib> Justi1: do you know what kind of video card you have?
[02:14] <Jack_Sparrow> drama1981: Yes, sorry.. wrestling a problem PC for a neighbor
[02:14] <Polygon89> knoppix, thanks ill try that out
[02:15] <knoppix> i think it works with xp not sure what happens with vista
[02:15] <Justi1> jrib: yes, ATI; in restricted drivers manager it says "ATI accelerated graphics driver"
[02:15] <Skillet^> Skillet^> Since upgrading to an Athlon X2 4000+ the generic kernels fail to boot for me.  Recovery mode shows them just stopping on "initializing root filesystem" or something to that effect
[02:15] <Skillet^> Anyone?
[02:15] <Jack_Sparrow> drama1981: Was that a laptop you were trying to install Ubuntu on?
[02:15] <jrib> !tvout > Justi1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:15] <niuq> any help with wine?
[02:16] <drama1981> no desktop. compaq presarion sr1710nx
[02:16] <jrib> Justi1: I'm only familiar with nvidia, but ubotu sent you some docs for help with ati
[02:16] <ckin2001> #winehq
[02:16] <Justi1> jrib: thank you
[02:16] <hopender> I need to move ~/Desktop/usr to File System/Usr how do I do that
[02:16] <serenityUK> hopender,   sudo mv /my/source  /my/destination         sorry the -r was for copy i think you don't need it for move
[02:16] <jrib> hopender: why would you need to do that?
[02:16] <hopender> I downloaded wine and it came in that folder
[02:16] <hopender> im guessing I gotta move that there
[02:17] <jrib> hopender: no, that's not the right way to install wine
[02:17] <hopender> oh?
[02:17] <hopender> Well I downloaded a .rem file or something
[02:17] <hopender> .rpm my bad
[02:17] <jrib> hopender: in ubuntu you use a Package Manager to install software form the repos
[02:17] <jrib> !software > hopender (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:17] <drama1981> really strange thing is it installs fine on my other pc exact same hardware except it uses ide hdd. ubuntu even sees my sata during install
[02:17] <jrib> !wine > hopender (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:17] <Makegho> __rocketman: lo: local loopback, wlan0: ethernet, hwaddr nn:nn:nn, UP BROADCAST MULTICAST,  wlan0:ava : ethernet, hwaddr <same as before>, inet addr ab.cd.ef.gh
[02:18] <jrib> hopender: after you enable the universe repository (system -> administration -> software sources), you can use Synaptic (system -> administration -> synaptic) to install the wine package
[02:18] <hopender> Whats the point of a .rpm file then
[02:18] <jrib> !rpm | hopender
[02:18] <ubotu> hopender: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[02:19] <Makegho> __rocketman: sudo iwconfig doesn't show a connection to an access point -- should it?
[02:19] <Jack_Sparrow> drama1981: Give me a minute to read up on your hardware..
[02:19] <SkareCrow> grr
[02:19] <serenityUK> hopender, 95% of software can be installed without going to  the website... but that extra 5% you get as a .deb file... .rpm is red hats version of .deb
[02:19] <drama1981> Jack_Sparrow k
[02:19] <frojnd> Would anyone know how can I change resolution, since in settings there isn't any option to set resolution to 1240*1024 witch is my recommended resolution for lcd ???
[02:19] <SkareCrow> i hate how ubuntu gives me ca.archive.ubuntu.com for a repo, i only dl at 18-20kb/s on that server some times 1000b/s
[02:20] <serenityUK> frojnd, you need to install drivers for you graphics card... which card do you have?
[02:20] <bruenig> SkareCrow, psst, change it
[02:20] <nickrud> SkareCrow, change it then. You could try just removing the ca for a bit, until you find a better local mirror
[02:20] <SkareCrow> i am going to, its just annoying how it gives me that and i have ot change it every time i install it
[02:21] <__rocketman> Makegho: well ifconfig I think is ok -- is ined addr something like "inet addr 192.168.0.5" ?, would expect iwconfig to show you the name of your ESSID
[02:21] <bruenig> SkareCrow, stop telling them you live in canada
[02:21] <nickrud> lol
[02:21] <dug_> SkareCrow: you can switch to us server in system->administration->software sources, or by replacing ca with us in /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:21] <serenityUK> blame canada
[02:21] <Strawberryjam> is ubuntu studio a dvd or cd image?
[02:21] <drama1981> Strawberryjam dvd
[02:21] <Strawberryjam> thnx
[02:21] <drama1981> np
[02:21] <__rocketman> Makegho: can you ping your router "ping 192.168.1.1" or 192.168.0.1 or whatever
[02:21] <Jack_Sparrow> drama1981: you are trying to install 64 bit right...
[02:22] <Strawberryjam> do you know if its avail as 64bit?
[02:22] <Makegho> __rocketman: that address is 169.x.x.x
[02:22] <nickrud> SkareCrow, us sources were really bad for a while, no idea if they still are but be prepared
[02:22] <drama1981> 32bit as i have 2 64bit and 1 32 bit pc and i figured i would d/l the 32 bit instaed of 32 and 64
[02:22] <ltar> how to run a script in terminal?
[02:22] <ltar> sh blahblahbalh doesn't work
[02:23] <drama1981> Strawberryjam 32 only
[02:23] <Makegho> __rocketman: can't ping the router
[02:23] <Strawberryjam> k thanks
[02:23] <nickrud> ltar, you probably need to do chmod u+x on the file then, make it executable
[02:23] <serenityUK> Strawberryjam, no unfortunately ustudio is 32bitr only grrrrr... there is a similar distro called 64studio   based on debian
[02:23] <serenityUK> Strawberryjam, ubuntu studio is really a copy of 64studio
[02:24] <Strawberryjam> i wanted to install 64 studio but i cant get the pppoe installed (newbie), my previous encounters with ubuntu was good
[02:24] <ltar> nickrud: invalid mode : "u"
[02:24] <johnficca> nickrud: I don't know what to make of his xsession file
[02:24] <dug_> ltar: you can just do chmod +x filename
[02:24] <ltar> nickrud: nevermind
[02:24] <nickrud> ltar, ok :)
[02:24] <Jack_Sparrow> drama1981: I found a page that might help...  Your making partitions over 100 gig right?    http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-78387.html
[02:25] <nickrud> johnficca, I probably wouldn't either, but if you put it on a pastebin maybe someone here can
[02:25] <drama1981> no 70gig
[02:25] <Strawberryjam> pppoeconf with ubuntu made it a breeze, dont know what to do with 64studio...cant find help on it either...the channel is empty
[02:25] <serenityUK> Strawberryjam, how much ram do you have you only need 64bit for +3gb
[02:25] <johnficca> what is the link for the pastbin
[02:25] <Strawberryjam> 8GB
[02:25] <CoasterMaster> !pastebin | johnficca
[02:25] <ubotu> johnficca: 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)
[02:25] <Joeb> Hi, was wondering if anybody knew whether it's possible to bridge network connections on Ubuntu (like you can in WinXP)
[02:25] <serenityUK> me too :)
[02:25] <Makegho> __rocketman: I find it interesting that "sudo wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -dd" segmentation faults.
[02:26] <serenityUK> Strawberryjam, i have never used more than 4 or 8gb yet lol... its a new pc
[02:26] <serenityUK> Strawberryjam, 4 of 8 i mean
[02:26] <serenityUK> Strawberryjam, even with vmserver
[02:26] <nickrud> Strawberryjam, if you can, just copy over the script in /etc/chatscripts and the config in /etc/ppp
[02:26] <nickrud> Strawberryjam, and the secrets file, of course
[02:26] <johnficca> ok I pasted it up if someone can take a look that would be great
[02:26] <drama1981> Jack_Sparrow i tried a 70gig main partion and a 1 gig swap. was gonna use the rest for later use if i needed it
[02:26] <Jack_Sparrow> drama1981: I googled this  and came up with some interesting info  ubuntu ATI Radeon Xpress 200 sata     I used info on your system from here  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericDocument?lc=en&cc=us&docname=c00572527&dlc=en&printable=no&encodeUrl=true&

[02:29] <Joeb> anybody feelin like helping someone? :)
[02:29] <whiter> Pelo i dont think so
[02:29] <Strawberryjam> hahaha..oh ok
[02:29] <whiter> i plugged it in and nothing happened
[02:30] <Pelo> whiter,  look up the model in the forum see if anyone has advice www.ubuntuforums.org
[02:30] <Pelo> Joeb, you need to ask a quesition
[02:30] <Strawberryjam> yes it does...its killing me...i have roland UM4 midi unit, it wont install...cant use the old xp drivers for it either
[02:30] <Joeb> i have - twice, lol. Does anybody know about bridging network connections in Ubuntu?
[02:30] <nickrud> johnficca, I can say, nothing there is causing the crash. Sorry
[02:30] <Tech-Mike> is there a way to set the screensaver as the background?
[02:31] <Pelo> Joeb, if no one here canhelp try looking it up in the forum
[02:31] <Strawberryjam> i know it wont be that easy in linux either...but i am just looking for an alternative,
[02:31] <Joeb> i've tried, didn't really find anything
[02:31] <nickrud> Tech-Mike, yes, but then you'd loose the icons on your desktop
[02:31] <johnficca> nickrud: ok thanks
[02:31] <Pelo> Joeb, #networking maybe
[02:31] <Strawberryjam> tired of all this MAc, WIn bull$&^T

[02:32] <Pelo> !mouse | arooni  this what you want ?
[02:32] <ubotu> arooni  this what you want ?: Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[02:32] <arooni> Pelo, yes
[02:32] <arooni> i'm having difficulties getting my microsoft laser mouse 6000 to be picked up correctly :(
[02:32] <Tech-Mike> nickrud: how do i do it?
[02:33] <Xero> cuz its Microsoft
[02:33] <mchris> I have ubuntu install but haveing probs so I need to reinstall.  Can I access my /home folder (from the installed account) using the live cd?
[02:33] <serenityUK> Joeb, best i can do is point you here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BridgingNetworkInterfaces
[02:33] <arooni> ms hardware tends to be pretty good
[02:33] <Xero> DRM. Ever heard of it?
[02:33] <Pelo> arooni,  I suggest you look up the model in the forum
[02:33] <arooni> opposite of their software
[02:33] <Xero> They putting DRM in their hardware now.
[02:33] <Strawberryjam> so anybody here(I realise its the wrong channel) have any idea on how to install and configure pppoe for 64studio?
[02:33] <Xero> No MS hw 4 u
[02:33] <Grungebunny> Xero who is?
[02:33] <Xero> Micro$haft
[02:33] <Joeb> serenityUK: thanks :)
[02:34] <Pelo> Strawberryjam,   sudo pppoeconf
[02:34] <dug_> mchris: yes, the live cd should automount your hard drives, unless the drive is corrupted or damaaged too much
[02:34] <mikubuntu> microsux
[02:34] <arooni> oh noes
[02:34] <Grungebunny> its time to start having open source hardware
[02:34] <arooni> i shouldn't have said it was ms
[02:34] <nickrud> Tech-Mike, first, you start   gconf-editor and navigate to /apps/nautilus/preferences , and untick show_desktop. Then, you start the screensaver. I don't remember off hand, but man xscreensaver will tell you, if no one else pipes up
[02:34] <arooni> what have i started ?
[02:34] <Xero> Nope nope nope.
[02:34] <Xero> DRM all the way!
[02:34] <mikubuntu> microdix
[02:34] <Strawberryjam> pppoeconf is not installed and unlike ubuntu, for a newbie that is not easy to do in debian
[02:34] <nameless`> hi
[02:34] <Grungebunny> DRM ftl
[02:34] <Xero> Windoze! Windoze! Windoze! No hardware for anyone else! DRM all teh way!!!
[02:34] <nameless`> i would like to play nsv file but with vlc i just have the sound, no video
[02:35] <nameless`> do someone knows how to see nsv stream ?
[02:35] <Pelo> Strawberryjam,  I gues you can check debian files for a package
[02:35] <nameless`> does*
[02:35] <Strawberryjam> :)
[02:35] <Xero> Hmm.
[02:35] <__rocketman> Makegho: the 169. ip address is odd - perhaps a symptom of the problem. Have you tried "ndiswrapper" instead of "wext" in /etc/network/interfaces or the wpa_supplicant command?
[02:35] <Xero> Linux + DRM + awesome devices = Microshaft dies
[02:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Xero: Please stop
[02:36] <Strawberryjam> yeah...i have but its really difficult cant find it in 64studio ...with ubuntu its so easy
[02:36] <Xero> Ok Jack_Sparrow
[02:36] <Strawberryjam> guess i will install ubuntu studio and give that a whirl
[02:36] <Grungebunny> Xero why + DRM ? I think companies are finally figuring out that its very anti consumer.
[02:36] <Pelo> Strawberryjam,  google for  pppoeconf.deb
[02:36] <Xero> Grungebunny, to make sure Microsoft can't have any.
[02:36] <Justi1> are there backups of xorg.conf on my computer somewhere?
[02:36] <Xero> Vendor lockout just like they do to us
[02:37] <ltar> alrite. wtf. I installed the ATI drivers. I now have access to the correct resolution, but it doesn't display correctly
[02:37] <Makegho> __rocketman: I'll try it once more, then I must go to bed; it's 03:30 here already.
[02:37] <darwin81> I'm having a weird problem with Totem. I turned off visualizations for music, but they'll still come back when I move or resize the windows, but only while windows is moving or resizing.
[02:37] <Xero> FUD, Vendor lockout, DRM.
[02:37] <Pelo> Justi1,  check in  /etc/X11    show hidden files
[02:37] <Xero> I think we need to pull out all the stops to kill Bill's company.
[02:37] <ltar> changing from 1024 up to 1280 seems to just extend the desktop outside the physical bounds of the monitor
[02:37] <mikubuntu> Jack_Sparrow:  do you know how to install the click and run plugin from freespire?
[02:37] <drama1981> Jack_Sparrow ty for them links. however it doesnt mention my problem. ubuntu installs fine. sees my sata and partitions it fine. when i reboot it says error loading os. it shows this directly after the bios is done loading
[02:37] <Strawberryjam> k thanks
[02:38] <bruenig> drama1981, so it doesn't get to grub?
[02:38] <drama1981> ive found no info of anybody having this problem
[02:38] <drama1981> nope
[02:38] <Jack_Sparrow> drama1981: It seems like lots of people have some sort of problem with that board..
[02:38] <Justi1> Pelo: there are files called "xorg.conf.fglrx-0" and "xorg.conf~". are these backups?
[02:38] <Xero> TCPA board.
[02:38] <bruenig> drama1981, sounds like a bios or grub problem, certainly not a linux problem
[02:38] <Strawberryjam> btw i am in vista now...cant access internet from 64
[02:38] <Jack_Sparrow> mikubuntu: NEver heard of it.
[02:38] <Xero> Microsoft corrupted BIOS
[02:38] <Xero> I'll bet you fifty bucks
[02:38] <ltar> also, how can I make my ext3 formatted partition read/writeable by nonroot, so that I can copy my music library onto it?
[02:38] <drama1981> Xero if that were true wouldnt it do the same with ide?
[02:38] <Xero> Yes.
[02:38] <Xero> Do you have ide?
[02:39] <bruenig> ltar, chmod and chown
[02:39] <arooni> if i follow this: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Advanced_Mouse/Individual_Configurations#Microsoft_Wireless_Laser_Mouse_6000 to get my lasermouse working... does the fact its a gentoo doc screw it up?
[02:39] <drama1981> it doesnt my other pc is i dentical execpt it uses ide instead of sata drives and it works fine
[02:39] <brandonperry> anyone know what the plugin for firefox is that makes the website think it is IE?
[02:39] <arooni> also,  how can i checdk if i have the 'evdev' driver
[02:39] <bruenig> if you can learn chmod and chown, you will never have permission problems ever again
[02:39] <drama1981> i have no extra ide's though
[02:39] <Grungebunny> brandon I don't think it works in linux but I could be wrong
[02:39] <Xero> drama1981, maybe the sata drive is TCPA?
[02:40] <brandonperry> Grungebunny: what is it anyway?
[02:40] <Jack_Sparrow> drama1981: Is there an option in the bios on how it handles sata...  some can make them appear as ide.
[02:40] <Xero> I have an ide drive that pretends to be sata.
[02:40] <drama1981> naw hp locks 99% of the bios.
[02:40] <Grungebunny> brandonperry dunno but I bet it wouldn't be hard to find if you browse the firefox plugins.. probably one of the more popular ones
[02:40] <brandonperry> I have looked
[02:41] <Xero> try google for "IE Spoof firefox"
[02:41] <bruenig> brandonperry, look for some sort of agent switcher
[02:41] <Xero> erm
[02:41] <Xero> without quotes
[02:41] <demonspork> I am incaPable of tyPing a lower case P, whenever I hit the key without Pressing shift first, it just doesn't do anything
[02:41] <drama1981> only thing i can change is the boot order basicaly
[02:41] <Xero> How did you get the p in your name then?
[02:41] <Grungebunny> demonspork lol thats quite comical
[02:41] <demonspork> Xero, my name was already Set
[02:41] <demonspork> Xero I sPend a lot of time here
[02:42] <bruenig> demonspork, can you put on caps lock and then hit shift p
[02:42] <knoppix> where is the kernel in ubuntu?
[02:42] <Xero> /boot
[02:42] <demonspork> p
[02:42] <demonspork> WOOT
[02:42] <demonspork> IT WORKED
[02:42] <Xero> lol
[02:42] <bruenig> demonspork, fixed
[02:42] <demonspork> not fixed
[02:42] <Xero> CAPS K THX
[02:42] <bruenig> just retrain yourself
[02:42] <bruenig> caps lock, shift p, caps lock
[02:42] <demonspork> it means that I still have to hit shift+P
[02:42] <ltar> chmod +rw /media/disk does not give me read/write access to my harddrive.
[02:43] <knoppix> Xero, say some muppet lost his kernel how would i put it back there?
[02:43] <drama1981> Xero is there anyway to find out if my sata drive is tcpa?
[02:43] <bruenig> ltar, do it recursively
[02:43] <Xero> copy one into /boot
[02:43] <__rocketman> Makegho: any luck?
[02:43] <Xero> drama1981, if it won't load anything other than Microshaft Winblows its TCPA
[02:43] <Makegho> __rocketman: no :(
[02:43] <knoppix> Xero, copy it from where? i cant find any on my system (im on a liveCD atm)
[02:43] <nameless`> i can't see demoscenetv :'(
[02:44] <kbrooks> Xero, plz be mature

[02:48] <nickrud> Messiah, it means you need to reboot into recovery mode and do chmod 0444 /etc/sudoers and reboot again
[02:48] <bruenig> Messiah, you need to do chmod 440 /etc/sudoers
[02:48] <bruenig> ltar, ok as it stands now, only root can write to it
[02:48] <ltar> bruenig: getting that. how do I change it?

[02:50] <bruenig> mikubuntu, the stuff I read is generally from people who have only ever used ubuntu, you can tell to when that is the case, I wouldn't give it to much credibility

[02:50] <serenityUK> nameless`, i just realised how old that message is... try vlc now aswell

[02:50] <nameless`> serenityUK, vlc don't works
[02:50] <bruenig> ltar, sure, make sure you do it as root
[02:50] <nameless`> serenityUK, i just have sound, no video

[02:51] <bruenig> mikubuntu, were you talking about freespire or ubuntu when you said that?
[02:51] <Extravert> has anyone tried Harvard's Tribler file sharing client? <http://tv.seas.harvard.edu/>
[02:51] <Grungebunny> soup whats the remaining 10% ?
[02:51] <CoasterMaster> Ady: what kind of movie is it?
[02:51] <brandonperry> Ady: what file type?
[02:51] <nickrud> bruenig, again with the negativity ;)
[02:52] <ltar> bruenig: no dice
[02:52] <mikubuntu> Soup: when are you gonna get serious and put some real time into this
[02:52] <Soup_> KRDC?
[02:52] <Soup_> LOL today was my first day
[02:52] <aleka> Trying Gaim for the first since my upgrade to feisty and it is not connecting any of my accounts.
[02:52] <Ady> CoasterMaster, its an avi file... its lyk, the files are working... but hte video appears blank...
[02:52] <Soup_> Hardest thing was the darn Nvidia driver
[02:52] <bruenig> ltar, do touch /media/disk/test as a normal user and tell me what it says
[02:52] <glick> i cant wait till the eee pc comes out
[02:52] <Soup_> Im impressed I got this far
[02:52] <glick> i want to get one
[02:52] <Soup_> Almost spent 1700 on a mac this was free :)
[02:52] <brandonperry> Ady: just do sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10*
[02:52] <sauvin> Try kopete instead of gaim.
[02:52] <Ady> CoasterMaster, when i move the sidebar a bit, it gets okay, but as soon as i make it full screen or anything of that sort, it creates a problem
[02:52] <CoasterMaster> Ady: what kind of problem?
[02:53] <brandonperry> oh
[02:53] <brandonperry> nevermind
[02:53] <Ady> brandonperry, i already have all those plugins, and w32codecs
[02:53] <serenityUK> Ady, have you tried VLC player?
[02:53] <CoasterMaster> Ady: you can try VLC
[02:53] <Ady> CoasterMaster, i even tried dat...
[02:53] <Soup_> only remote desktop i see is KRDC that any good?
[02:53] <aleka> and Pidgin is not in the repos... is gaim not supported anymore then?
[02:53] <swirrel> hi everyone! anyone have a webcam5 by creative ?? need help please :))
[02:53] <ltar> bruenig am I gatting the syntax right? touch /media/disk/test /media/disk
[02:53] <Babble_> how would I switch from gnome to xfce?
[02:53] <brandonperry> I use Pidgin
[02:53] <nickrud> what's a good way to identify what apps are causing disk activity?
[02:53] <brandonperry> I love it
[02:53] <nickrud> and the quantity of it
[02:53] <brandonperry> Babble_: at login
[02:53] <mikubuntu> bruenig: i was talking about the click and run program installer offered by linspire/freespire, which are distro's supposedly based on ubuntu, and that click and run (cnr) is what i was talking about
[02:53] <CoasterMaster> Babble_ : you can install xubuntu-desktop and choose it at login
[02:53] <ltar> bruenig: doesn't return anything
[02:53] <Ady> CoasterMaster, its something different actually... the files are playing, nothing wrong with dat, but the video goes haywire as soon as i resize it... wat could be the reason ???
[02:53] <bruenig> nickrud, it is so obvious when these tech writers who are journalism students who know windows real well play around with ubuntu for an hour and act like they know all the distros and can speak on ubuntu's superiority
[02:53] <bruenig> ltar, just touch /media/disk/test
[02:54] <serenityUK> Babble once you install xfce you can choose using the sessions button on the login screen
[02:54] <ltar> bruenig: nothing
[02:54] <Babble_> brandon, i can't do a normal login... i have to use recoverymode
[02:54] <glick> does anyone know how i can type the euro symbol on a keyboard that has it?
[02:54] <aleka> brandonperry:  Did you download a .deb for it from somewhere or am i just missing it in the repos?
[02:54] <glick> its on the same key as the '5' and the % sign
[02:54] <nickrud> bruenig, yes, I know what you mean. They're on the bandwagon
[02:54] <bruenig> ltar, you did that as a regular user right?
[02:54] <ltar> bruenig: it is a freshly formatted disk. the only file on it is a folder called "lost+found"
[02:54] <Babble_> CoasterMaster: I have to run in recovery mode
[02:54] <brandonperry> aleka: I compiled it
[02:54] <ltar> bruenig: yes
[02:54] <Ady> CoasterMaster, even if i open the file menu or anything, it causes a problem, the video gets fixed there n then.... while the audio runs...
[02:54] <brandonperry> same deps as gaim
[02:54] <swirrel> anyone with a webcam5 ???
[02:54] <Babble_> CoasterMaster: if i run normal boot it locks up
[02:54] <ltar> bruenig: chuck@ltar:~$ touch /media/disk/test
[02:54] <hopender> oh my I restart my computer and now Compiz-Fusion and emerald don't wanna work, I can't even go to other sides of my cube im stuck on the one, whats wrong. I did compiz --replace and emerald --replace how do I fix it
[02:54] <bruenig> ltar, ok then you are able to write to it as a normal user, what command are you using to copy the files over?
[02:54] <aleka> brandonperry:  I guess it would work fine and not clash with Gaim then?
[02:55] <brandonperry> itw orked for me
[02:55] <ltar> bruenig: copying w/ nautilus.
[02:55] <boelloesch> hi
[02:55] <bruenig> ltar, well try command line
[02:55] <ltar> bruenig: it's useless to me if I can't use a GUI to manage it. I want to use it as an everyday storage place.
[02:55] <Messiah> nickrud:i did wat u said. now is loading lets see if it log in?
[02:55] <boelloesch> is there a german channel?
[02:55] <bruenig> ltar, just try
[02:55] <aleka> brandonperry: so just download the .tar , .make and check-install to compile right?
[02:55] <nameless`> ubuntu-de
[02:55] <nickrud> Messiah, yes, then see if sudo works
[02:55] <boelloesch> thx
[02:55] <ltar> bruenig: also, I don't know the commands to copy files
[02:55] <brandonperry> I just make install
[02:56] <bruenig> ltar, cp /path/to/files /path/to/place
[02:56] <hopender> oh my I restart my computer and now Compiz-Fusion and emerald don't wanna work, I can't even go to other sides of my cube im stuck on the one, whats wrong. I did compiz --replace and emerald --replace how do I fix it

[02:56] <nailhead33> Installed the 64 bit gnash plugin for firefox - doesn't seem to work very well.  How do i get rid of it to try something else?
[02:56] <aleka> brandonperry:  is your Gaim still functional thou? I don't know why Gaim is not working for me in the first place
[02:56] <pedroVOX> does anyone has a IBM t42 with feisty? (hello BTW)
[02:56] <brandonperry> uh, hold on
[02:56] <Ady> CoasterMaster, when i resize the window, the video is visible, as soon as i leave the mouse click, its gone... what do i do ???
[02:56] <bruenig> nailhead33, how did you install it
[02:57] <brandonperry> yeah
[02:57] <Babble_> how do I test X in recovery mode
[02:57] <brandonperry> gaim works and pidgin works
[02:57] <nailhead33> downloaded the packages from ubuntu universe
[02:57] <nailhead33> deb installer
[02:57] <pedroVOX> running GAIM just now...why shouldnt it work..
[02:57] <Messiah> nickrud:am still getting this message mode 0666, should be 0440. now what?
[02:57] <bruenig> nailhead33, so did you use repos apt-get install?
[02:57] <Soup_> I cant find any remoe desktop sessions that let me connect from outside to ubuntu only out from
[02:57] <bruenig> nailhead33, or install the deb by itself for some reason
[02:58] <nailhead33> did not do repose
[02:58] <brandonperry> Soup_: type vino-preferences in the terminal
[02:58] <nailhead33> just double clicked the packages
[02:58] <hopender> Couldnt load CPP or osmething
[02:58] <brandonperry> just use vino and vncviewer
[02:58] <bruenig> nailhead33, well whatever the name of the package was, just do dpkg -r packagename
[02:58] <nailhead33> got it
[02:58] <hopender> serenityUK: Couldn't load CPP
[02:58] <hopender> serenityUK: CCP***
[02:58] <bruenig> nailhead33, you should use the repos, that is one of the greater advantages of linux distros over windows stuff
[02:58] <serenityUK> hopender, paster the exact error into google
[02:59] <ltar> bruenig: I can't get it to work. No such file or directory. I'm fairly certain i didn't mispell ~/desktop/test.txt
[02:59] <nailhead33> sorry, im such a noob at this
[02:59] <nickrud> Messiah, type ls -l /etc/sudoers ; that shows you the permission. It should look like-r--r----- 1 root root 546 2007-08-07 14:04 /etc/sudoers. You need to go back to recovery, change the permissions (0440) and look to be sure.
[02:59] <bruenig> ltar, Desktop not desktop
[02:59] <pedroVOX> nOOB is good..;-)
[02:59] <Babble_> ok I guess I just type X to test X in recovery mode.... so does that mean that gnome has a problem if it locks up when I don't boot in recovery mode from grub?
[02:59] <ltar> bruenig: case sensitver ?!?!   :'(
[02:59] <serenityUK> yes ltar
[02:59] <brandonperry> Babble_: startx, not x
[02:59] <bruenig> thankfully yes
[02:59] <m0u5e> anyone know how to use i855-crt ?
[03:00] <ltar> bruenig: jesus. Case sensitive. anyways, copied fine as root. why not with a GUI?
[03:00] <ltar> er, as standard user, I meant
[03:00] <bruenig> ltar, I can only help you as far as that is concerned, I am not really a gui person
[03:01] <ltar> well, thanks then
[03:01] <bruenig> you *should* be able to though

[03:01] <ltar> bruenig: strange. i created a folder on disk via command line, and I CAN use the disk normally within a folder, but not on the "disk" itself
[03:01] <m0u5e> anyone know how to use i855-crt?
[03:01] <Messiah> nickrud:-r--r--r-- 1 root root 403 2007-08-29 03:16 /etc/sudoers
[03:01] <brandonperry> Soup_: not that I know of
[03:01] <m0u5e> anyone know how to use i855-crt? I'm trying to vga out to a TV
[03:02] <bruenig> ltar, that statement didn't make sense to me
[03:02] <serenityUK> ltar, root is there for a reason you can break your system
[03:02] <Soup_> will that setting stay now forever even when I reboot?
[03:02] <bruenig> Messiah, that is 444, it needs to be 440
[03:02] <brandonperry> Soup_: yeah
[03:02] <nickrud> Messiah, yes, that last r makes the file readable by anyone. That is what is a no no

[03:03] <ltar> new question: going from 1024x786 to 1280x1024 doesn't work quite right. Rather than change the resolution properly, it expands the image well outside the physical bounds of my monitor. wtf?
[03:03] <Justi1> I followed this howto http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout#See_Also and it messed everything up. anyone have advice on how to "undo" it?
[03:03] <Messiah> nickrud:so what i do?
[03:03] <Javid> Is there a way to tell the package managers to ignore an update on something?
[03:03] <bruenig> he chmod 777'd a disk and was wondering why nautilus wasn't letting him write to it

[03:04] <Andrew_1> I have a question regarding Firefox. Sometimes it just quits unexpectedly, usually right in the middle of typing text in my Gmail account.
[03:04] <bruenig> Andrew_1, freezes or just flat out closes
[03:05] <Justi1> I am seriously just going to reinstall ubuntu
[03:05] <nickrud> Messiah, relax a bit, it's new, but you'll get it down ;)
[03:05] <Messiah> nickrud:didnt you tell me that to do last time?
[03:05] <bruenig> Messiah, how did it get changed in the first place from 440?
[03:05] <advancedonsite> hi guys
[03:05] <nickrud> Messiah, yes, but most likely you made a typo. when you do it this time, do the ls -l and make sure it's -r--r----
[03:06] <Shadow6363> could someone advise me the channel to discuss this or answer it here: which is better, tetex or texlive?

[03:32] <brandonperry> put that in the terminal
[03:32] <brandonperry> what prints out
[03:32] <Neoxygen> so is there a possibility to exctract on batch some .exe .rar .zip ?

[03:33] <nothingssomethin> SHADOW this is actually a zip file with multiple files in it is that fine
[03:33] <Azerial> Yes My harddrive is also SATA
[03:33] <Polygon89> Neoxygen, i dont think .exe because .exe is a windows executable.....

[03:33] <brandonperry> so
[03:33] <Azerial> how the heck is that possible
[03:34] <serenityUK> yigal, hmm...  if you do apt-get install -s  somepackage it prints out the whole thing as if to install all dependencies etc but without actually downloading or installing... you will see a list
[03:34] <yigal> serenityUK: I guess what I am saying is I would prefer not to have to reinstall the packages.  I would prefer instead to know the packages I have installed and delete the packages with use in GNOME - I think I know how.
[03:34] <m0u5e> Neoxygen: if you use wine, you can run some .exe files
[03:34] <Azerial> How did it even Install if it cant SEE my HD
[03:34] <yigal> serenityUK: ok, ty
[03:34] <brandonperry> Azerial: reboot, see what happens

[03:37] <zaius> hi all, I'm getting this error when i do a hd-media install: "there was a problem reading data from the cd-rom. failed to copy file from the cd-rom. retry?". It only happens with the desktop iso (works fine with the server iso) and the md5s on the iso are fine.
[03:37] <|neon|> question would using 2 hard drives on linux raid 0 yield better performance that using just one hard drive, the hard drives will be sata on either configuration thx
[03:37] <Topham> can anyone help with mine?
[03:37] <Topham> I get these error lines(i think) when booting after install pasted at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36003/
[03:37] <Soup_> not graphics though
[03:37] <Soup_> all command line
[03:37] <brandonperry> Azerial: when you boot to the LiveCD, can you read the files on the cd?
[03:38] <Soup_> Im looking for a gui front end
[03:38] <brandonperry> Soup_: yeah, use the default archive manager
[03:38] <brandonperry> fileroller
[03:38] <Azerial> When I boot with the Live CD it works just fine
[03:38] <Shadow6363> nothingssomethin, fyi, i wont know you said something to me unless you type my whole name but as you suspected, im not sure how you could rejoin the files once in windows
[03:38] <Neoxygen> but the probleme is i have 150000 files in the same folder and i need to extract all the files
[03:38] <Azerial> thats how I installed LInux with a live cd
[03:38] <Soup_> it wont open rars
[03:38] <Soup_> i did it via command line
[03:38] <Soup_> but want a better way
[03:38] <brandonperry> Azerial: ok, then something must have gone wrong during install
[03:38] <GigaClon> Xero, gtkpod can't see it if the ipod isn't mounted on the system
[03:38] <brandonperry> Soup_: check out file-roller
[03:38] <nothingssomethin> yeah that's the thing
[03:38] <Azerial> So? Is there a fix or do I gotta reinstall?
[03:39] <Shadow6363> nothingssomethin, what i am thinking is to rar your zip file into a multivolume archive (2) and then store each part on a disc, then in windows, copy them to your hard drive and unrar them to get the zip, then unzip it to get your files
[03:39] <GigaClon> Azerial did you make only two partitions?
[03:39] <nothingssomethin> i'm going to windows with it
[03:39] <brandonperry> Azerial: looks like it
[03:39] <Azerial> I have a partition for XP, a Partition for Linux, a Swap partion, and 8mb unused
[03:39] <GuyFromHell> how to "dd" a partition to another partition, to do something like, i dunno, move windows from a logical partition over to a primary partition so i can actually get into it.
[03:39] <Xero> Why 8mb unused?
[03:39] <m0u5e> anyone here know how to vga out with a i8xx graphics card?
[03:39] <nothingssomethin> wait that's a perfict idea
[03:39] <GigaClon> are you on the live CD?
[03:39] <brandonperry> Xero: windows does that
[03:39] <Azerial> No
[03:39] <yigal> serenityUK: I just did a aptitude purge user-he <-- the virtual package and copied the files to be removed.  I made 2 seperate files, 1 with GNOME dependencies the other without.  I installed the ones with GNOME dependencies so they are automatically purged by apt and the I deleted the GNOME files.  A little work, but I hate GNOME - funny being in Ubuntu saying this but to me it is just too clumsy
[03:39] <m0u5e> Xero: used for cache on some HDs
[03:39] <nothingssomethin> raring will make it 2 files
[03:40] <Azerial> Im running LInux booted off my  hd,
[03:40] <yigal> serenityUK: s/installed/purged
[03:40] <zaius> has anyone here done a hd-media install before?
[03:40] <GigaClon> then what is the problem
[03:40] <Azerial> I cant use my CD/DVD Burner combo drive
[03:40] <nothingssomethin> how do you do that with lunix
[03:40] <yigal> serenityUK: I am also quite drunk so who knows what I have done
[03:40] <nothingssomethin> ubuntu
[03:40] <IndyLucian> Azerial, I have had a similiar problem during my first ever linux install about a year ago, which was Fedora Core. The only way I found to fix it was to just re-install over the partition.

[03:42] <brandonperry> |neon|: I already answered that. yes, RAID is always faster than one HD
[03:42] <Shadow6363> nothingssomethin, no, you have to specify that which is what im trying to figure out
[03:43] <Azerial> what wiki?

[03:46] <KevinOman> if im connected to my server via ssh, how do I bring up a firefox window
[03:46] <thatkid> the only thing that i can think of that could have messed it up is that i made a copy of the folder and put it onto the panel

[03:51] <brandonperry> haha
[03:51] <serenityUK> yigal, what is slow about it?
[03:51] <jxxxt> nickrud, thx
[03:52] <Fusion_> hi. i recently uninstalled desktop effects to make way for compiz fusion and in the process also uninstalled ubuntu desktop. Will this be bad for me? thanks
[03:52] <yigal> serenityUK: if I cat a file, for instance, my virtual terminal lags a little, but on an x-terminal I don't have this problem
[03:52] <IndyLucian> Fusion_, you uninstalled gnome?
[03:52] <GigaClon> Fusion_, no its fine
[03:52] <brandonperry> Fusion_: ubuntu-desktop is a dummy package, so no
[03:52] <nothingssomethin> well
[03:52] <Fusion_> IndyLucian, no not gnome.
[03:53] <Faud> How do I open the file manager for WINE ?
[03:53] <nickrud> !libdvdcss | dutch (that's what you want, but you have to get it elswhere:)
[03:53] <ubotu> dutch (that's what you want, but you have to get it elswhere:): For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:53] <serenityUK> yigal, wow you would thing it's the other way around..
[03:53] <nothingssomethin> the tottal size is 1 gig and it needs to fit onto 2 cd's
[03:53] <nothingssomethin> or 3
[03:53] <Fusion_> GigaClon, what potential problems can i expect?
[03:53] <GigaClon> this makes no sense, mount says that the ipod is mounted rw but nothing can right to it
[03:53] <KevinOman> Kr0ntab: yes it is set to yes
[03:53] <nothingssomethin> i have alot of cd's
[03:53] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: split didn't work?
[03:53] <yigal> serenityUK: I think it has to do with using the nvidia driver in X but not in a virtual terminal
[03:53] <GigaClon> Fusion_, its just a dummy package
[03:53] <Superkuh> I am having trouble with DNS resolution when I disable ipv6 (Ubuntu feisty, 2.6.20-16-generic x86_64). This is causing issues with multiple programs. I am not sure of the cause, but I have laid out the issues in detail here, as well as done some narrowing down. It is long. http://pastebin.ca/678550 I would appreciate any help narrowing it down further.
[03:53] <Kr0ntab> and does the server have X running on it?
[03:53] <GigaClon> Fusion ie nothing in it
[03:53] <eckse>  Hi, I'm running Kubuntu live and the board is on the fritz, I luckliy got it to POST but I can't access the Windows 2000 hard drive. I get this error when mounting. hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 999
[03:54] <serenityUK> yigal, oh so you have a 3D card but you use DWM lol
[03:54] <KevinOman> Kr0ntab: nope its just ubuntu server
[03:54] <yigal> serenityUK: otherwise, other than use vimperator, firefox with vim bindings, I would be in a virtual terminal
[03:54] <brandonperry> eckse: what command are you using to mount
[03:54] <Fusion_> GigaClon, great! thanks
[03:54] <nothingssomethin> brandonperry i need to rejoin the file on windows
[03:54] <yigal> serenityUK: absolutely, 3d sucks if one wants to think and get things done
[03:54] <Kr0ntab> you need to have X running on the server.  :-)
[03:54] <GigaClon> this makes no sense, mount says that the ipod is mounted rw but nothing can write to it
[03:54] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: you can use copy to join 2 files
[03:54] <KevinOman> is that a package I have to install Kr0ntab
[03:55] <nothingssomethin> ?
[03:55] <eckse> brandonperry: I am just right-clicking the drive and choosing mount. opening it gives me the same thing. the file explorer says it is 0 bytes but knows the name of the drive. it should be ntfs
[03:55] <nothingssomethin> in windows
[03:55] <Kr0ntab> correct...
[03:55] <brandonperry> eckse: mkdir mnt ; sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/<hard drive> ./mnt
[03:55] <dutch> nickrud: thanks a ton man, i will try this
[03:55] <yigal> serenityUK: i don't have a powerhouse 1.7ghz 1mb ram but i bought a gpu nvidia fx5200 to play movies
[03:55] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: yes, copy in windows will join the two files
[03:56] <KevinOman> Kr0ntab: is what I need called xinit?
[03:56] <nothingssomethin> eckse did you use a bios hard drive password before ? if you did it won't let you touch it
[03:56] <serenityUK> yigal, have you got a framebuffer installed ... can you see graphics in text mode?
[03:56] <sal002> Is there a channel for 7.10 Tribe?  I had a general question about title bars not appearing when I enable desktop effects
[03:56] <Shadow6363> brandonperry, wish i would have known about copy earlier...
[03:57] <brandonperry> Shadow6363: ;-)
[03:57] <Shadow6363> nothingssomethin, looks like brandon got your answer
[03:57] <nothingssomethin> brandonperry how do you use split
[03:57] <eckse> it says the drive is mounted now, brandonperry and nothingsomthin, but now i get "Cannot enter folder /home/ubuntu/mnt"
[03:57] <yigal> serenityUK: yes, but it doesn't seem to work as well as X?
[03:57] <Kr0ntab> KevinOman, just install xserver-xorg metapackage...
[03:57] <nothingssomethin> i can't get the paramaters dows
[03:57] <eckse> maybe i should put kubuntu?
[03:57] <nothingssomethin> down
[03:57] <brandonperry> eckse: sudo su ; cd ./mnt
[03:58] <masss> do you know if you can use divx stage6 directly with ubuntu, or a special codec is needed ?
[03:58] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: try just split file
[03:58] <serenityUK> yigal, well you have cut n paste in X too so it's worth is anyway
[03:58] <nothingssomethin> brandonperry can you give me a command line for split
[03:58] <brandonperry> yeah
[03:58] <eckse> the file explorer still gives me the error brandon perry, do i have to do this with terminal? :o
[03:58] <nothingssomethin> an example
[03:58] <yigal> serenityUK: with screen there is cut and paste, did you know this?
[03:58] <nothingssomethin> of some sort
[03:58] <brandonperry> split file.ext
[03:58] <brandonperry> just try that
[03:58] <serenityUK> yigal, ok so in screen....
[03:59] <brandonperry> the default is two I think
[03:59] <nothingssomethin> that will be enugh
[03:59] <serenityUK> yigal, when I view an RSS feed in raggle  can I follow the link and launch it in links2  ?
[03:59] <Ashfire908> what GNOME media players are there for video
[03:59] <greentea_> I need a program for recovering stuff in harddrive
[03:59] <nothingssomethin> npw i must add that i am spliting a zip file that will still work?
[03:59] <brandonperry> yeah
[03:59] <brandonperry> as long as you join them correctly with copy
[04:00] <brandonperry> it is all just binary data
[04:00] <eckse> (mistyped your name, sorry) the file explorer still gives me the error brandonperry, do i have to do this with terminal? :o
[04:00] <brandonperry> yeah
[04:00] <brandonperry> terminal
[04:00] <serenityUK> yigal,  raggle is nice and links2 is nice but i haven't joined the two....   when in X raggle with lanuch firefox but I haven't done it in screen
[04:00] <greentea_> Is there a program for recovering a harddrive
[04:00] <Enul> what is dapper?
[04:00] <P_Kable> how can I create an iso from a CD in command lines please ?
[04:00] <yigal> serenityUK: its true though I like to use vimperator, firefox with vim keybindigs, when w3m doesn't properly load a page, no, but copy the link and launch it.  Is there a better way ?:)
[04:01] <eckse> brandonperry: how do I list the files in the directory of the drive and copy them?
[04:01] <greentea_> Is there a program for recovering a harddrive?
[04:01] <greentea_> Anyone ?
[04:01] <Shadow6363> anyone recommend tetex or textlive more than the other?
[04:01] <KevinOman> Kr0ntab: I installed xserver-xorg, do I need to install metapackage as well?
[04:02] <yigal> serenityUK: I have to install raggle, geese it sounds nice
[04:02] <serenityUK> yigal, raggle nice is a RSS reader for screen written in ruby
[04:02] <brandonperry> eckse: ls to list cp -R ./* to copy
[04:03] <yigal> serenityUK: its installed, you have liked it except for this problem of launching firefox instead of links2
[04:03] <yigal> serenityUK: ?
[04:03] <serenityUK> yigal, raggle can launch a link in firefox when using xterm  but when im in CLI im a screen n00b, it's written for screen so i should be able to use links2 all from the console without X
[04:04] <fulio> should i download compiz fusion?
[04:04] <Kr0ntab> KevinOman, xserver-xorg is a metapackage...  try running firefox...

I vaguely remember a command that would export a list of all installed packages to a file and then you would feed that file in to apt-get on the other machine.
[04:09] <Rogue-3> Bus 006 Device 004: ID 413c:8104 Dell Computer Corp. is the corresponding line i believe as its a dell wireless adaptor
[04:09] <fulio> what was the channel agn for fusion?

[04:17] <TwinX> ltar add 1280x1024  in  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:17] <brandonperry> yeah, you need to specify it
[04:17] <serenityUK> yigal, yes and if you resize it by draggin the terminal downward it resises itself and shows more feeds
[04:18] <nothingssomethin> could i just enter that dir and put in the command with the filename
[04:18] <Esteth> how can i add google to deskbar like yahoo?
[04:18] <yigal> serenityUK: I am using screen split into 2 parts - right now irssi and the other raggle

[04:20] <rathel> How can I get my horizontal scroll working on my mouse?
[04:20] <z0rz> If I have ICS configured properly on this computer then I should be able to share my wireless by simply telling my dhcp server to give out this computer's ip as the default gateway instead of my router (which is down)
[04:20] <z0rz> right?
[04:20] <eckse> I can't change directory down into my NTFS drive. cd /"Documents and Settings" gives me so such file or dir, i tried the full directory name and it wouldn't go.
[04:20] <ltar> TwinX: perhaps.. can send through IRC?
[04:21] <serenityUK> yigal, my other CLI favourites are rtorrent and  vnstat -m    i asume you know about rtorrent
[04:21] <TwinX> ltar to pastebin
[04:21] <brandonperry> eckse: you should look into ntfs-3g
[04:21] <brandonperry> otherwise, all your stuff will need to be done as root
[04:21] <sonnyT> No. imbecile
[04:21] <eckse> brandonperry how would i do that on kubuntu live?
[04:21] <brandonperry> sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[04:21] <TwinX> ltar paste the contents  here ; http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:21] <brandonperry> and mount -t ntfs-3g instead of just ntfs
[04:21] <eckse> ok
[04:22] <yigal> yes, thats pretty interesting meeting another person, randomly, who also has a certain proclivity to CLI :)
[04:22] <eckse> kouldn't find package brandonperry
[04:22] <ltar> TwinX: http://pastebin.com/m631c5d83
[04:22] <brandonperry> eckse, you need to edit your sources.list

[04:23] <serenityUK> yigal, vnstat is a great way to monitor you bandwith consumption if the isp is angry..   i can run  vnstat -m   and it shows how many GB i have d/l in past few months... it's very lightweight
[04:23] <ltar> Twinx: I can select 1280x 1024 just fine, but it renders outside of my monitor. like it keeps rendering at 1024x786, as though I were viewing an image larger than my screen resolution
[04:23] <TwinX> ltar are u sure  you're using 24 bit ?
[04:23] <TwinX> oh
[04:23] <fulio> sparklehistory, where can i check that?
[04:23] <Evil_Ed> hello
[04:23] <Evil_Ed> ?
[04:24] <brandonperry> hi?
[04:24] <[Lucian] > hi
[04:24] <TwinX> ltar maybe we could change the refresh rates

[04:25] <Strav> he. Now I have no sound at all. I just switched from realtime kernel to the generic one and can't get the sound enabled (reinstalling alsa libs didn't worked; restarting alsa daemon, rebooting, modprobing alsa related, none of these worked.

[04:32] <ubotu> imbecile: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[04:32] <Strav> here the sound system is different than what I have in the volume control gui
[04:32] <yigal> serenityUK: I created a dbase for vnstat :)
[04:32] <Kr0ntab> how many sound cards you have?
[04:32] <_cms> Hello. I'm installing 7.04 right now using the standard graphical installer, and gotten past the confirmation screen. However the "Installing system" window does not have the progress bar, and is nearly as small as a window can be (just a small gray square). It is not resizable. How might I be able to check the progress?
[04:33] <imbecile> serenityUK:  thanks
[04:33] <Strav> Kr0ntab, lspci tells only one sb live! card
[04:33] <serenityUK> yigal, i think it crons the data 5min intervals incase you crash .. you can problalbe relax it i never tried
[04:33] <brandonperry> _cms: you need to restart it
[04:33] <brandonperry> ie the cd
[04:33] <brandonperry> reboot
[04:33] <Strav> Kr0ntab, now alsamixer gives me an intel thing.
[04:33] <brandonperry> I guess is what I ma tryng to say
[04:33] <Pelo> _cms, dbl click the title bar
[04:33] <sparklehistory> mot: very very carefully.  Always use the 'visudo' command, as it will verify your syntax before saving, to make sure you don't totally screw it up.  A quick google usually turns up a few good results (I don't have my bookmarks handy).
[04:33] <eckse> how do I change the permissions of a drive? that would help me a lot, it is for drive sda1
[04:33] <brandonperry> Pelo: it isn't that I don't think
[04:33] <brandonperry> eckse: what do you mean?
[04:34] <Strav> Kr0ntab, while I did set my card to sb live via the volume control gui
[04:34] <Pelo> brandonperry, it'S worth a shot
[04:34] <mot> sparklehistory, it told me permission denied
[04:34] <brandonperry> if you mounted in your home dir, you should have permissions
[04:34] <_cms> brandonperry, it seems to be working on it (much cd and hard drive light flashing)
[04:34] <sparklehistory> mot: It will need to first be modified by someone who already has sudo rights.
[04:34] <brandonperry> _cms: I know, it did that to me before
[04:34] <brandonperry> I had to reboot it
[04:34] <brandonperry> it never finished
[04:34] <Azerial> Somebody out there Please answer me.  My CD/DVD combo drive IS not working with Linux!   I need to make it work!
[04:34] <eckse> brandonperry, kubuntu sees the drive just fine in the file browser, size and all. i just have no permissions. if i can change those permissions in the terminal with su, i can get the files i need graphically instead of with commands
[04:34] <brandonperry> eckse: sudo chmod -R 777 ./mn
[04:34] <brandonperry> ./mnt*
[04:35] <_cms> thanks, brandonperry. i'll go for it. it has been running for a while.
[04:35] <Pelo> Azerial,  define not working ?
[04:35] <serenityUK> yigal, i like to run it with the  -m   switch to see  GB/month  but you need to dl something first won't work on 0 data
[04:35] <Kr0ntab> the wrong card may be selected for use... I would check all the channels to ensure they're not muted.. and disable any on board cards from bios if you have one..
[04:35] <Strav> Kr0ntab, man alsamixer says I can specify my card via -c and entering a number. Where should I get the number list?
[04:35] <Azerial> As in It does not work peroid, cant read cds, cant read dvds, it dosent even exist to linux basicaly
[04:35] <Kr0ntab> from within alsamixer...
[04:35] <Kr0ntab> hit F2
[04:35] <yigal> serenityUK: perhaps its time for a divx movie to entertain my senses :)
[04:35] <Pelo> Azerial, open , menu , places,  my computer ,  see if it is listed

[04:36] <zaius> do i end up with the same thing if i install from the alternate iso instead of the desktop iso?
[04:36] <Kr0ntab> Strav, you can also cat /proc/asound/cards
[04:36] <serenityUK> yigal, ah that is what rtorrent is for lol

[04:40] <Strav> Kr0ntab, may I ask: how to unmute a channel (here tone is muted, I thought perhaps..)
[04:40] <yigal> serenityUK: ok i'll have to check it out :)
[04:40] <eckse> no that finished, but it still doesn't allow me access brandonperry
[04:40] <Pie-rate> here's grep nobody auth.log: http://pastebin.ca/678589 a lot of it is failed login attempts, but its the stuff in auth.log.0 that worries me.
[04:40] <Strav> (I'm used to the volume ctler)
[04:40] <Pie-rate> actually the stuff in auth.log
[04:40] <eckse> brandonperry: fuse: failed to access mountpoint ./mnt: No such file or directory
[04:40] <brandonperry> oh
[04:41] <Pie-rate> "Successful su for nobody by root," for example
[04:41] <brandonperry> are you in  the original directory that your created the mnt folder in?
[04:41] <nalioth> !tell Azerial about paste
[04:41] <serenityUK> greentea_, if you have enabled the restricted drivers in System->Admin->Restricted drivers... you can run  gksu nvidia-settings   to set up you resolution
[04:41] <brandonperry> !paste
[04:41] <Azerial> wtf just happened?
[04:41] <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)
[04:41] <masss393> hey guys, since i installed ubuntu 7.04, my ventilator is running non stop, making an anoying noise, i have a AMD Sempron (tm) processro 3000+, someone has an idea ??
[04:41] <greentea_> twinx do you know the command go straight to the settings for nvida card
[04:41] <jrib> Azerial: do *not* paste in the channel.  use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org as ubotu has told you multiple times before...
[04:41] <Azerial> Well How was I supposed to know that?
[04:41] <Azerial> Im a newbie here
[04:41] <sparklehistory> Azerial: by reading the topic.
[04:41] <greentea_> serenityUK thanks
[04:42] <serenityUK> greentea_,     gksu  nvidia-settings
[04:42] <onats> hi, when i ssh into a machine, how do i copy/get folders from that machine?
[04:42] <brandonperry> haha, ok eckse I am going to post a really long command ok?
[04:42] <serenityUK> greentea_,     but you need the nvidia driver installed
[04:42] <Azerial> .... You guys dont have to go booting people like that its rude
[04:42] <Pelo> Azerial, don't worry about it, too much,  some ppl are lagging a bit and they just saw it,  now you know
[04:42] <Kr0ntab> Strav, sorry for delay...
[04:42] <onats> ssh questions?
[04:42] <nalioth> Azerial: one should pay attention to lines of text with their nicks in it
[04:42] <Strav> found it
[04:42] <Kr0ntab> arrow to right and left to select channel...  hit letter "m" to toggle mute
[04:42] <nalioth> Azerial: and also their private messages
[04:42] <Strav> thanks anyways
[04:42] <Strav> (for the unmute)
[04:42] <bwlang> masss393: perhaps the power saving code is not loaded... i believe  it's called powernow-k8
[04:42] <Kr0ntab> cool
[04:42] <Kr0ntab> did it work?
[04:42] <serenityUK> greentea_,     press the button to save the changes to xorg.conf afterwards so it will stay after reboot
[04:42] <rcy> Hi.  I'm relatively new to ubuntu, 7.04 is the first version I've tried.  I'm curious if there is a reason to use automatix since there is the restricted modules repository in the ubuntu archives
[04:43] <brandonperry> cd ; rm -rf mnt ; mkdir mnt ; sudo umount /dev/sda1 ; sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 ./mnt
[04:43] <Strav> let me see...
[04:43] <brandonperry> eckse: ^^^
[04:43] <masss393> bwlang    how can i enable it then ?
[04:43] <nalioth> !tell rcy about automatix
[04:43] <eckse> brandonperry ok i'm back, sorry phone
[04:43] <Pie-rate> ls
[04:43] <brandonperry> 'tis ok
[04:43] <Pie-rate> grr
[04:43] <Pelo> Azerial, I don't know what to tell yo abotu your problem  check in the forum , do a search for  cdrom not listed  or something see what comes up ,   www.ubuntuforums.org
[04:43] <beerfan> what's the package name to install kde in Ubuntu? thought it was kde-desktop or something
[04:43] <nalioth> rcy: short answer, you'll destroy your system with automatix  (read what ubotu sent ya :)  )
[04:43] <Azerial> Ive done the forumes
[04:43] <bwlang> masss393: first have a look at the modules installed in your kernel with 'lsmod | grep power'
[04:43] <Azerial> I started a thread last night
[04:43] <Ninja> kubuntu-desktop
[04:43] <Azerial> Nobody has helped m yet
[04:43] <eckse> brandonperry should i do this as root?
[04:43] <Azerial> I started a thread on techspot too and nobody has helped me
[04:44] <brandonperry> eckse: that command cd's to your home dir, deletes a mnt if it exists, creates it, unmounts sda1 and mounts it in mnt
[04:44] <eckse> brandonperry i am su right now in 1 terminal
[04:44] <zaius> can someone tell me what the difference between alternate and desktop isos is?
[04:44] <brandonperry> no
[04:44] <beerfan> thanks Ninja
[04:44] <Pelo> Azerial, I meant do a search ,  for stuff that might already be there
[04:44] <bwlang>  masss393: if that returns nothing try running sudo modprobe powernow-k8
[04:44] <Azerial> Pelo: is it such a hard thing to make LInux recongize my CD Drive?
[04:44] <Ninja> no problem
[04:44] <Azerial> I did
[04:44] <Azerial> like a 5 times
[04:44] <Azerial> and googled it
[04:44] <Pelo> Azerial,  and check in menu > system > prefs > hardware info  see if the cd is listed
[04:44] <Kr0ntab> zaigon, alternate is simply a text based installer... desktop is the live cd.. with optional install via GUI
[04:44] <Azerial> No luck at all
[04:44] <Kr0ntab> zaius, , alternate is simply a text based installer... desktop is the live cd.. with optional install via GUI
[04:44] <nickrud> zaius, live is something you can run to see ubuntu; alternate installs successfully on more machines
[04:45] <Andrew_1> Has anyone been able to build pidgin 2.1.1 successfully on Feisty (7.04)
[04:45] <Pelo> Azerial, usualy the cd drivers get recognised automaticaly , your's is an execptionnal case
[04:45] <Azerial> Pelo: Where?
[04:45] <beerfan> Andrew_1 sure
[04:45] <Andrew_1> I'm getting errors with libxml2 when trying to build pidgin
[04:45] <zaius> Kr0ntab / nickrud: so desktop boots to a gui? does it fail back to curses?

[04:45] <brandonperry> Andrew_1: do you have the dev files?
[04:45] <Azerial> Where is menu>system prefs>
[04:45] <eckse> brandonperry i did the command, i saw a fuse error, i'm gonna retry in a fresh terminal
[04:45] <Kr0ntab> zaius, no...
[04:45] <nickrud> zaius, no, wish it did
[04:45] <Andrew_1> My version of libxml2 is 2.6.27
[04:45] <Azerial> I dont know my way around linux just yet
[04:45] <brandonperry> ok
[04:45] <zaius> right. think i've found my problem then
[04:45] <masss393> bwlang   it says http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36004/
[04:45] <brandonperry> what was the error?
[04:45] <zaius> thanks
[04:46] <eckse> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ fuse: failed to access mountpoint ./mnt: No such file or directory
[04:46] <nothingssomethin> brandon
[04:46] <Andrew_1> The error I'm getting is that pidgin should be >= 2.6.0
[04:46] <Pelo> Azerial, menu bar at the top ,  under system , under preferences , in hardware info
[04:46] <nothingssomethin> i forgot to ask you

[04:46] <nothingssomethin> btw that worked like a charm
[04:46] <rcy> nalioth: thanks very much for the info
[04:46] <Andrew_1> I'll try getneb.net
[04:46] <nothingssomethin> what do i do to copy them together in windows
[04:46] <nickrud> eckse, drop the period in front of /mnt
[04:46] <ltar> I installed beryl, but can't initialize it. I remember I used to have a program in my launcher bar to switch between beryl, metacity, and compiz. what do I need to install, still?
[04:47] <Andrew_1> brandonperry, yes I have the dev files.
[04:47] <nalioth> ltar: join #ubuntu-effects
[04:47] <beerfan> Andrew_1: http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=1307
[04:47] <eckse> yea, i hit enter after that and it said bash: fuse:: command not found  brandonperry
[04:47] <Andrew_1> I'm going to try getdeb.net and see how that goes.
[04:47] <Azerial> Pelo: what exactly am I looking for in there?
[04:47] <nothingssomethin> do i highlight both files and click copy  or do i drag one file into the other???
[04:47] <Andrew_1> Thanks beerfan for the link :)

[04:47] <Strav> Kr0ntab, now that everyting is set to sb live, I went to the sound parameters in system/preferences/sound and if I choose alsa as my playback, when testing, I get the error: "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Resource busy or not available.", perhaps it is linked to my problem since the only time I could have managed to get sound lately was by reinstalling the alasa libs and tools.

[04:53] <Pelo> Azerial, anything starting with /dev  ? or /tty ?
[04:53] <Azerial> Pelo: No
[04:53] <eckse> brandonperry it is workging! thanks so much! i thought i almost lost my source code, phew
[04:53] <|neon|> question would using 2 hard drives on linux raid 0 yield better performance that using just one hard drive, the hard drives will be sata on either configuration thx
[04:53] <brandonperry> haha, de nada
[04:53] <eckse> brandonperry: de nada? ;)
[04:54] <Pelo> Azerial, in the second tab under block device , first line
[04:54] <brandonperry> uh, no problem
[04:54] <nothingssomethin> brandon rember i split a 7zip file
[04:54] <brandonperry> yeah
[04:54] <beerfan> neon, raid0 is always faster than single drive
[04:54] <brandonperry> did you not get my message?
[04:54] <nothingssomethin> i don't see that method
[04:54] <advancedonsite> #infoanarchy
[04:54] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: are you on windows now?
[04:54] <Azerial> Pelo, "Block device?"
[04:54] <fulio> guys when ever i enable my desktop effects, my terminal turns white and im not able to close windows or rezise it or drag it, but when i enable it its all back to normal again
[04:54] <Azerial> what do you mean?
[04:54] <nothingssomethin> yes
[04:55] <brandonperry> click start > run> type cmd
[04:55] <brandonperry> press enter
[04:55] <bwlang> masss393: on my system i can control the van via  a program... is there something you can use in /proc/acpi/fan to control the speed.  If not, I'm stumped.
[04:55] <nothingssomethin> ok note that i am a windows tech
[04:55] <nothingssomethin> did that
[04:55] <Pelo> Azerial, when you select the cdrom drive , in the list on the left side,  you get spec on the right site,  there are tabs at the top of the right side,   one is advance,   the first line is block device
[04:55] <brandonperry> haha, ok
[04:55] <TwinX> advancedonsite=>  could be E-FancyLauncher  , not sure.
[04:55] <masss393> bwlang  so what command should i pass
[04:56] <brandonperry> http://abmefaq.net/Join.html#PermanantJoin   <--go here, it tells you how to join the files with the copy command
[04:56] <brandonperry> It has been a while since I used i, so I don't want to tell you something wrong and you lose your data
[04:56] <bwlang> masss393: ls /proc/acpi/fan  - maybe there's a file in there you can modify to control the fan
[04:56] <advancedonsite> ok cool
[04:56] <Azerial> Pelo Wait, on the thing where it says compatable cd rom port, there was something listed under it of same thing
[04:56] <Azerial> *of same name
[04:56] <masss393> bwlang   i listed it and there is FN00
[04:57] <Pelo> Azerial, is this a usb drive ?
[04:57] <Azerial> I clicked that, and I see under the advanced tab something that reads linux.device_file string /dev/ttySO
[04:57] <Azerial> No its internal SATA
[04:57] <bwlang>  masss393: list all the files in that tree - (find /proc/acpi/fan/
[04:57] <Azerial> its the only Disk drive I have on this computer
[04:58] <Azerial> thats why its so important I get it working
[04:58] <Pelo> Azerial, ok that's good to know sata might be the problem , I've heard things,  I don't remember them but I've heard them
[04:58] <|neon|> so 2 raptors sata drives will be faster than one single sata drive????
[04:58] <Pauli> hello world
[04:58] <Azerial> Well my SATA harddrive works just fine
[04:58] <[Lucian] > Does Ubuntu have a PowerPC distro?

[05:00] <Pelo> Azerial, I don'T know but I am finding stuff in the forum on  sata cdrom , one thread states solved
[05:00] <[Lucian] > I would rather put Ubuntu on my ps3 rather than YDL
[05:00] <Pelo> Azerial, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=535181&highlight=sata+cdrom

[05:01] <brandonperry> the other is a livecd

[05:01] <VonGuard> have had restart issues for a couple days
[05:01] <|neon|> Azerial: lh-20a1s is the model
[05:01] <allic> elo everyone.. just a simple Q....i mount a external harddisk to ubuntu... but i cant create folder or paste anything to the new mounted harddisk...how to go abt it?
[05:01] <brandonperry> [Lucian] : if you have a keyboard for your PS3, then yeah
[05:02] <beerfan> [Lucian] : live cd is easiest
[05:02] <Pelo> Azerial, in this thread they suggest getting the gutsy kernel and using that
[05:02] <serenityUK> |neon|, i think the issue with raid is access time to very small files,  the raptors have a very low latency which will loose a little with any raid setup  but it will be faster for copying big files etc... if you ran a big webserver with lots of little accesses you might want to skip it but for home use raid should be quick
[05:02] <|neon|> Azerialiam not saying your should work but what is the model
[05:02] <[Lucian] > im just going to use my usb keyboard from my pc
[05:02] <VonGuard> allic: new disk must be a weird filesystem for your install, like HFS or something
[05:02] <LadyNikon> PPPP: super karamba
[05:02] <[Lucian] > for now anyhow
[05:02] <hopenderpro> z0rz: Come back to me!

[05:04] <serenityUK> hopenderpro, did you install build-essential?
[05:04] <hopenderpro> I dunno, where do I get it
[05:04] <z0rz> hopenderpro: Yeah, and unfortunatly I'm not z0rzpro yet.. so you'll have to ask a pro ;)
[05:04] <bwlang> masss393: cat /proc/acpi/fan.../state  (didn't follow that path)  i bet it says enabled  - you could turn off the fan, but you risk overheating.  on my laptop, the speed is automatically set according to how hot the cpu is...
[05:05] <hopenderpro> xD
[05:05] <Pelo> allic, stuck how ?
[05:05] <[Lucian] > virii is one of the main reasons i converted from wincrap
[05:05] <serenityUK> hopenderpro, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:05] <beerfan> allic: if you plan to reinstall windows after it hosed your computer...why are you here asking for help? :-)
[05:05] <serenityUK> hopenderpro, you need that to build programs
[05:05] <allic> stuck as in i cant copy anything from my old harddisk to my external hdisk...
[05:05] <z0rz> serenityUK: I thought he already did that ...

[05:06] <Azerial> yes
[05:06] <Pelo> k
[05:06] <bwlang> masss393: i think there's a fancontrol script in the lmsensors package, but to do it manually you could do something like this (as root) echo 0 > /proc/acpi/.../fan/.../state
[05:06] <raynerd> guys, just downloaded new apps, quite a few and I cant see any of them in the menu. I mean i cant run any! Apparently using Kubntu there is a K app finder, is there anything for KNOME? Be easy, nooby linux user

[05:30] <MeRodent> . is the current directory
[05:30] <serenityUK> cirrus_, . means the current directory
[05:30] <HopenderPRO> serenityUK: Now I get No package 'pycairo' found
[05:30] <nickrud> cirrus_, that's shorthand for the current directory, you can't change it
[05:30] <|neon|> ok so thusfar from reading the recommended literatue it seems that 2 hard drive on        raid 0 using linux raid wield yield better performance than one single hard drive, i'll take that to be true and will report once i re-install
[05:30] <serenityUK> cirrus_, and .. means the parent directory
[05:30] <Maczimus> hello, somehow, someway with my ATI card on my laptop. extra effects just started working!?!?! (i am running gutsy) was there an update?
[05:30] <cirrus_> Woops, I should have clarified that "." in this case is the name of the directory containing malicious code left on the box a while ago
[05:30] <cirrus_> there is "." ".." and "." <-- directory as well
[05:30] <bruenig> craigbass1976, ok so the first two pages of each file, you want to do pdftotext and then after then you want to go pdfimages pdftotext pdfimages pdftotext, etc?
[05:31] <serenityUK> hopenderpro, python-cairo-dev?
[05:31] <cirrus_> i can see inside with ls .* , just can't move it

[05:31] <nickrud> Maczimus, oh. I thought there'd been a sudden breakthrough :)
[05:31] <cirrus_> Thanks guys but this is actually a directory named "."  - A cracker left it on the box in /var/tmp

[05:33] <DShepherd> Maczimus, ask in #ubuntu+1 or #ubuntu=devel
[05:33] <Pelo> cirrus_,  I am not responsible for anthing that happens if you try tht command
[05:33] <Maczimus> ok thanks
[05:33] <majnoon> what is the command to start gnome ??
[05:33] <HopenderPRO> serentiyUK: K i think that fixed it, ill tell you after erstart
[05:33] <drama1981> it doesnt say it will work on that laptop but it also doesnt say it wont
[05:33] <cirrus_> Pelo: I tried escaping the period but that didn't work.
[05:33] <beg1689> majnoon: gnome-session?
[05:33] <nickrud> cirrus_, if a cracker left something on your box, reformat & reinstall
[05:33] <Pelo> majnoon, gdm ?
[05:33] <serenityUK> cirrus_, can you use tab to auto complete  .<tab>
[05:33] <beg1689> majnoon: or perhaps you want: sudo /etc/init.d/gsm restart
[05:33] <beg1689> gdm* sorry
[05:33] <bruenig> craigbass1976, like do you want it to be "whatever the name of the original pdf is1" and so forth or what?
[05:34] <DShepherd> majnoon, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start #maybe
[05:34] <craigbass1976> bruenig, Oh wait... Each page is a picture, then text.
[05:34] <onats> drama1981, ok reading.. thanks!
[05:34] <decay> and howcome everytime i open RhythmBox, for every song, there's a picture of mick jagger on the bottom left?!?
[05:34] <benzs_s> because he's awesome?
[05:34] <beg1689> decay: your tags are screwed up?
[05:34] <decay> sorry not mick jagger.  the guy from The Doors
[05:34] <craigbass1976> bruenig, sorry, chatting with someone about a bash script and the k3b "done" song that I used to potty train my toddler
[05:34] <benzs_s> and the songs you are listening to currently probably have dodgy ID3 tags... the last one to have a good id3 tag was probably rolling stones
[05:34] <Pelo> decay,  probably the last image cache from a file , and the others you play donT, have images
[05:34] <kevin__> anyone know how to adjust the screen size for my monitor here?
[05:34] <drama1981> np. thats all i have found this far. google returns nothing on that prob with that laptop though
[05:35] <majnoon> it gnome-session what i want to do is do xinit -- :1 then start it in the xterm window
[05:35] <bruenig> craigbass1976, so you have two pages of text and then every page after that has a picture and some text underneath it?
[05:35] <benzs_s> ok so i've just downgraded from 64bit to 32bit (feels like an upgrade really but y'know) and rhythmbox is an older version tahn the one i had before, yet aptitude insists it's the latest... is there some repo i added that i don't remember or am i really going mad?
[05:35] <raynerd> anyone know anything about customising a live ubuntu CD ? apparently it can be done with the help of knoppix as well?
[05:35] <cirrus_> serenityUK: No, tab completion doesn't work
[05:36] <cirrus_> nickrud: the files left behind are very old and the box has moved/passwords changed/rootkit checks clear (no evidence of compromised system binaries)
[05:36] <|neon|> what antivirus to use
[05:36] <nickrud> cirrus_, since nothing in tmp is valuable, just delete /tmp & put it back
[05:36] <craigbass1976> bruenig, but I'd like to name eac text file after the first line of text under the picture, and the picture should also be named firstlineoftext.gif.  I think if I just name the picture blahblah.gif, I can have the script go back and rename it after the text part is done and before moving on to the next page.  Yes, you are right.  Image/text on every page after title and TOC pages
[05:37] <bruenig> craigbass1976, my god man
[05:37] <astro76> raynerd, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[05:37] <DShepherd> raynerd, https://help.ubuntu.com/community -- got there and search for Live CD
[05:37] <bruenig> craigbass1976, just one picture per page right?
[05:37] <DShepherd> astro76, i am so slow :-D
[05:37] <Pelo> raynerd, http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1
[05:37] <serenityUK> cirrus_, it must be white space like when you use  '\ '  for '/New Folder/'   becomes /New\ Folder/    can you do  .\<tab>
[05:37] <craigbass1976> bruenig, yep.
[05:38] <DShepherd> raynerd, reconstructor is good too..
[05:38] <simplechat> hey
[05:38] <KevinOman> kevin__: ctrl + Alt + (+) or (-)
[05:38] <simplechat> i'm trying to get users to automatically mount a smb volume on login
[05:38] <craigbass1976> bruenig, the script might lok crazy, but you should see how this guy looks doing it by hand...
[05:38] <simplechat> and i'm having problems
[05:38] <cirrus_> nickrud: But that would destroy the evidence and leave me clueless as to what they were abusing the connection for.
[05:38] <simplechat> atm i've suided a file in /home/node
[05:38] <simplechat> with the command to mount the share
[05:38] <simplechat> but it won't mount
[05:38] <simplechat> it complains that it must be suided root in order to urn
[05:38] <simplechat> *run
[05:39] <raynerd> i`ll give reconstructor a try
[05:39] <simplechat> (it is highlighted red in ls, and it was chmodded 755 before being chmoded +s)
[05:39] <nickrud> cirrus_, ah.
[05:39] <Pelo> simplechat, please don'T use the enter key for punctuation
[05:39] <simplechat> whats the next step to diagnose mit?
[05:39] <bruenig> craigbass1976, at this point the only concern I have is figuring out the caption of the picture
[05:39] <KevinOman> kevin__: did that work?
[05:39] <simplechat> Pelo, compared to one incredibly long sentence?
[05:39] <shpongled> hello all
[05:39] <simplechat> hey
[05:39] <decay> Pelo, oh okay
[05:39] <cirrus_> serenityUK, nickrud, http://pastebin.ca/678618     is the directory listing to clarify...has the unrenameable directory shown
[05:39] <serenityUK> cirrus_, what about nautilus?   or midnight commander from CLI
[05:39] <bruenig> craigbass1976, how do you suppose that is possible? is there some string or something that we can hook on to that will tell us, ok this is the picture caption
[05:39] <shpongled> first time in the ubuntu chan
[05:39] <craigbass1976> bruenig, pdfimage
[05:39] <Pelo> simplechat, we've seen paragraphs
[05:39] <ignignokt12a> upon trying to boot my feisty installation, i get about 100 rows of "/bin/sh: can't open sed" and it stops.  can't boot into my installation.. help?
[05:40] <cirrus_> serenityUK: No GUI on the box
[05:40] <simplechat> Ahadiel, ok
[05:40] <DShepherd> simplechat, sudo mount -t <type> <device> <location> -o umask-0022 # that may work
[05:40] <serenityUK> cirrus_, midnight commander is a console app
[05:40] <bruenig> craigbass1976, pdfimage or pdfimages?
[05:40] <shpongled> anyone know any of the benefits of the new kernel img that was released?
[05:40] <cirrus_> oh yeah! i'll see if it sees it. one moment
[05:40] <simplechat> Dshephard, this is for autonimous operation, it should run on startup, mount then run another program
[05:40] <simplechat> so i can't enter the sudo password
[05:40] <serenityUK> cirrus_,  ive never used it but it exists
[05:40] <craigbass1976> bruenig, yeah, your right--images
[05:40] <Ahadiel> simplechat, thanks for the random highlight ...........
[05:40] <nickrud> oh, a real use for mc! haven't used it in years.
[05:41] <DShepherd> simplechat, ok
[05:41] <bruenig> craigbass1976, how does that tell us the captions? isn't the caption just text?
[05:41] <craigbass1976> bruenig, yeah, it's a little table with part numbers in it.
[05:41] <craigbass1976> bruenig, picture is exploded view of part
[05:42] <beg1689> hey guys i have a problem with ubuntu on a friends laptop: when it boots up it is complaining about a bunch of Buffer I/O errors and crap and trying to check a disk partition and complaing about a bunch of problems, eventually it drops to the terminal as root with the /home partition not mounted (i have a / and a /home partition) if i simply type 'mount /home && /etc/init.d/gdm restart' it runs flawlessly from that point on, but the issue 
[05:42] <nickrud> serenityUK, you should try to live for a week with mc, vim, mutt, and a couple other programs for images & pdf's. Good for the soul :)
[05:42] <DShepherd> simplechat, u can set that command to not require a password though... for specific users... but that's if your interested
[05:42] <Pelo> beg1689,   clean install
[05:42] <beg1689> Pelo: i did
[05:42] <bruenig> craigbass1976, do a pdftotext of one of these pages, and paste the output and then tell me which part is the caption
[05:42] <DShepherd> simplechat, well it would be password less in fact
[05:43] <serenityUK> nickrud,  yes i like raggle for rss   and i use rtorrent for downloading bittorent
[05:43] <beg1689> Pelo: i did a fresh feisty install, formatting the / partition
[05:43] <Pelo> beg1689, that's all I have, try searching the forum ofr i/o errors
[05:43] <serenityUK> nickrud,  and links2
[05:43] <simplechat> DShepherd, ok. so it would run from there. Also, what user do the processes in init.d run as?
[05:43] <Pelo> beg1689, have you considered that the /home partition might be damaged ?
[05:43] <serenityUK> nickrud,  alsamixer and ogg123 or similar
[05:43] <nickrud> serenityUK, I've gone all gui now, but I forced myself to not use anything I didn't compile for about 6 months. Those were easy :)
[05:44] <mikubuntu> Pelo: ya, the oscommerce site has the download, and i could download it to archive manager, as a zip file, but i don't know how to unpack it then.
[05:44] <Enul> has anyone been able to get a nostromo speedpad to work under ubuntu?
[05:44] <faileas> compiling is easy, resolving deps isn't ;)
[05:44] <Pelo> mikubuntu, link please
[05:44] <beg1689> Pelo: you know, for some reason i havent tried reformatting that... ill have to back up some files and try it
[05:44] <raynerd> has anyone used reconstructor
[05:44] <raynerd> ?
[05:44] <serenityUK> nickrud,  i have an old laptop which i installed server ed and i try to use CLI only, but i put fluxbox on now aswell...
[05:44] <Pelo> raynerd, sorry I never did
[05:44] <diabolix> does anyone know how to assign one action to a key press, and a different action to key release?
[05:44] <bruenig> resolving deps is easily most of the time as it will generally tell you what to get
[05:45] <Spudster> has anyone clustered Ubuntu?  Any howto's you might recommend?
[05:45] <serenityUK> nickrud,  i was introduced to  DWN today even lighter than fluxbox lol, going to try it
[05:45] <raynerd> the biggest thing I want to do is remove the install option totally of the live edubuntu disk
[05:45] <DShepherd> simplechat, root i guess
[05:45] <serenityUK> nickrud,  sorry DWM
[05:45] <Philip__> hi
[05:45] <Pelo> Spudster, check in th forum > www.ubuntuforums.org
[05:45] <Spudster> thanks
[05:45] <simplechat> DShepherd, so basically i shove a new script inside /init.D and it should run as root, mounting and then doing whatever
[05:45] <nickrud> serenityUK, I used a 466 celeron up until about a year ago, I used really light stuff then also. But I'm getting spoiled. About time to install unstable and relearn some stuff
[05:46] <simplechat> (sorry, habit) i can then drop down to another user?
[05:46] <bruenig> diabolix, what do you have in mind exactly, I mean is there something you intend to do where you are going to hold down the keys for a long time before letting them go or can you just assign both actions to the key press
[05:46] <Pelo> raynerd, you cn probably just remove the install icon from the desktop and from the menu
[05:46] <serenityUK> nickrud, ha this laptop is p2-266 maxed out to 192mb lol
[05:46] <raynerd> pelo: using the reconstructor app?
[05:46] <nickrud> heh.
[05:46] <Pelo> raynerd, I guess
[05:46] <DShepherd> simplechat, I think so. I am no bash guru though. give it a whirl and see how it goes..
[05:46] <diabolix> bruenig, i want to hold down a key and click for right click.. i'm on a mac.
[05:47] <PPPP> LadyNikon: i have installed it through synaptic.  how do i activate it?
[05:47] <nickrud> serenityUK, that's a real laptop, your thighs won't even get a little warm
[05:47] <simplechat> DShepherd, ok, just one (last) question before i try this, how do i run a command as another user?
[05:47] <raynerd> pelo, now been using ubuntu for a few days and totally confused about installs, do I install this by searching reconstructor via add/remove page, or synaptic or on the download page of the website
[05:47] <diabolix> bruenig, i want to remap the keys on press, and remap back to normal when the key is released.
[05:48] <DShepherd> simplechat, su #switchuser maybe..
[05:48] <DShepherd> simplechat, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sudoers?highlight=%28sudo%29 -- for sudo related commands.. try that
[05:48] <Pelo> raynerd, no idea , I guess it might be later on  in the process , where you have the options about the desktop
[05:48] <bruenig> diabolix, there might be a way to do that, I don't know how. A compromise would be to have the key toggle. So you press once, it maps, you press the next time, it maps it back and so forth
[05:48] <Pelo> raynerd, this isn't your regular ubuntu stuff
[05:48] <DShepherd> simplechat, again.. me is no bash expert so.. it may not work :-D
[05:49] <diabolix> bruenig, i'd rather just keep using a two and three finger click than that.
[05:49] <MeRodent> "Enter password for default kerying to unlock" comes up every time I start ubuntu. Any way to fix this?
[05:49] <bruenig> diabolix, can't you just go get another mouse?
[05:49] <raynerd> pelo, think u got my question wrong. I want to give reconstructor a go. How do I get it or download reconstructor? Via add/remove or what? I`m trying to get over the windows way of doin things
[05:50] <diabolix> bruenig, laptop
[05:50] <serenityUK> DShepherd simplechat  yes    su   on itsown will change to root  and   su username    to any other
[05:50] <Pelo> raynerd, check the site,  it's probably mentionned on there , I've never tried it myself so I don'T know
[05:50] <nickrud> MeRodent, you have something starting that tries to access the gnome-keyring; like an smb share you want to see, or your wireless password ...
[05:50] <Pelo> g'night folks
[05:50] <diabolix> bruenig, mighty mouse actually can do right click in ubuntu. but i like ctrl-click
[05:50] <|neon|> what antivirus to use
[05:50] <tehk> Anyone know if I can install ubuntu using vmware to a full partiion and later boot off of that natively?
[05:50] <simplechat> Dshepard, i'm going to add a dummy script into /init.D and then see if it will mount on reboot. serenityUK, ok, does su [username]  have a passsowrdless form?
[05:50] <bruenig> diabolix, oh, you use the mouse on laptops? I have always tried to force myself to go keyboard only
[05:51] <bruenig> simplechat, su username -c "command you want to be run"
[05:51] <|neon|> tehk: i tried thatr with no luck
[05:51] <bruenig> simplechat, if you need to inherit that guys .bashrc or other login settings, you would need to do su - username -c "command"
[05:51] <tehk> |neon|: oh shucks
[05:51] <tehk> OSX needs to die
[05:52] <simplechat> bruenig, that doesn't require password? i'm trying to etiher set up the user so it doesn't have a password, or else be able to switch to it without password
[05:52] <|neon|> tehk: it does not create a mbr on the actual partition for some reaso
[05:52] <bruenig> simplechat, I actually have written a daemon that does something like this so that I can start conky as my normaly user instead of root
[05:52] <osxdude|lap> No it doesnt
[05:52] <bruenig> simplechat, yeah no password, since you are root
[05:52] <MeRodent> nickrud, nm-applet (wifi manager I think). Is there a way to fix it so it doesn't ask?
[05:52] <simplechat> bruenig, ok, how did you write it?
[05:52] <diabolix> bruenig, its mostly for web browsine.
[05:52] <|neon|> tehk: or should i said it does not write to it
[05:52] <nickrud> MeRodent, don't have your wireless start automatically
[05:52] <bruenig> simplechat, root can su into another user without providing a password
[05:52] <tehk> |neon|: hmm ok I might be able to get around that. Thanks
[05:52] <serenityUK> simplechat, the root user can switch to any user without a passwrd...  if the process running the script is root it might work
[05:53] <bruenig> simplechat, su - bruenig -c "conky &" &> /dev/null
[05:53] <MeRodent> nickrud, Sort of defeats the purpose. Doesn't it?
[05:53] <simplechat> bruenig serenityUK ok, i'll get it to su back to "node" (my user) and then give me a whoami > /home/node/whoami to test
[05:53] <bruenig> diabolix, right, well like I said, I don't know
[05:53] <cirrus_> serenityUK: Thanks, I was able to use "mc" Midnight Commander to move that directory "." to a more usable name. Turns out the intruder left an old version of "emech" an IRC bot. Thanks for your help.
[05:54] <raynerd> whats difference between .tar file and .deb
[05:54] <nickrud> MeRodent, I know that sounded flippant, sorry. But I don't know how to tell the keyring manager to be passwordless. You could try googling for gnome-key-ring passwordless or some such, I guess
[05:54] <serenityUK> cirrus_, yay teamwork!  nice 1 mate
[05:54] <bruenig> simplechat, you probably just want to use the su -c setup
[05:54] <m11> morning all
[05:54] <craigbass1976> bruenig, I may actually be onto this.  I can't even remember now why I came in here; I think mostly to ask if anyone had ever done this and to see if I had all the tools I needed
[05:54] <serenityUK> welcome
[05:54] <nickrud> MeRodent, or maybe ask on the gnome maillist
[05:55] <simplechat> bruenig, from /init.d? so in /init.d i have a script which is one line su node -c /home/node/startup with startup being my script?
[05:55] <MeRodent> nickrud, the thing is I use the identical network card on another computer and it doesn't ask for a default keyring password.
[05:55] <bruenig> craigbass1976, I mean I can help with the bash stuff if you aren't familiar there if you can figure out the pdf* commands and such
[05:55] <GuyFromHell> damnit i give up with recovering this, which to install first, ubuntu or windows if i'm reinstalling them both
[05:55] <nickrud> MeRodent, same exact setup? wep/wpa, etc?
[05:55] <MeRodent> GuyFromHell, windows.
[05:55] <simplechat> GuyFromHell, windows, then ubuntu
[05:55] <bruenig> simplechat, well you need it to be a daemon, which means it needs to be able to accept start, stop, and restart arguments
[05:55] <serenityUK> simplechat,   you can see if you type  su  to change to root it asks you as password...  if you then as root type  su username it changes without asking...  you can type exit to return to root
[05:55] <MeRodent> windows is to stupid to install with ubuntu.
[05:55] <zeeble> GuyFromHell: partition, install windows, and then ubuntu
[05:56] <majnoon> install the windows first the windows setup likes to  trash linux MBRs
[05:56] <MeRodent> nickrud, connected to the same router.
[05:56] <craigbass1976> bruenig, I am real proficient in bash, just not xpdf and its derivatives.  I only learned about them after the job interview, when I said to myself "I aint %&#ing splitting up pdfs by hand"
[05:57] <glick> hey im making a new partition that i want to format as reiserfs
[05:57] <glick> in fdisk what should i give the partition as a system ID?
[05:57] <glick> 83?
[05:58] <jimmygoon> Would Debian's unstable packages for libboost-dev likely work for ubuntu feisty?
[05:58] <nickrud> glick, use cfdisk, it has a really nice help screen, iirc
[05:58] <krammer_> anyone good with Unix?
[05:58] <bulmer> glick yes
[05:58] <derdcm> whats unix
[05:58] <simplechat> oktanouc, its working without being in init.D
[05:58] <simplechat> *ok
[05:58] <bruenig> jimmygoon, -dev packages are just headers, if the -dev version is not the same as your libboost version, then that is a bad idea
[05:58] <simplechat> uh, if i screw up init.D, how would i rescue my system?
[05:59] <MTecknology> How do I set it up so I can use xrandr?
[05:59] <serenityUK> simplechat, choose recovery mode from the grub menu
[05:59] <benzs_s> ok so i've just downgraded from 64bit to 32bit (feels like an upgrade really but y'know) and rhythmbox is an older version tahn the one i had before, yet aptitude insists it's the latest... is there some repo i added that i don't remember or am i really going mad?
[05:59] <krammer_> derdcm go to your terminal and type ls -a
[05:59] <jimmygoon> bruenig, they have a full libboost*-1.34.1 complement ...
[05:59] <derdcm> 'ls' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
[05:59] <derdcm> operable program or batch file.
[06:00] <m11> how to setup TUN/TAP on ubuntu server ?
[06:00] <krammer_> log in as root
[06:00] <simplechat> serenityUK, ok. it should normally startup tho, if it doesn't kill the comp? Its just that atm the comp i'm using is a throwaway node that isn't connected to anything but ethernet (and power)
[06:00] <jimmygoon> !unix
[06:00] <ubotu> the proprietary operating system that was supposed to be posix complient, just like GNU/Linux
[06:01] <bruenig> derdcm, are you a b0t?
[06:01] <serenityUK> simplechat, recoverymode will drop you to a command line where you can log in as root and repair text files using nano
[06:01] <derdcm> bruenig: are you a n3rd?
[06:01] <raynerd> guys, whats a Universe repositry?
[06:01] <simplechat> serenityUK, ok. but with a small error in init.d it would still end up running?
[06:01] <nickrud> lol, ubotu's got a wicked side
[06:02] <serenityUK> simplechat, oh you mean no screen keyboard my bad..
[06:02] <bruenig> !universe | raynerd
[06:02] <ubotu> raynerd: 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
[06:02] <simplechat> serenityUK, yeah, its quite literally in a closet
[06:02] <raynerd> huh
[06:02] <blerd> #compiz-fusion
[06:03] <weltschmerz> anyone know where nfs keeps it's log files?
[06:03] <nickrud> raynerd, the components page up above gives a good explanation
[06:03] <jimmygoon> How bad of an idea is it to mix debian unstable packages and ubuntu packages, and is there any easy way of doing so w/o manually downloading all of the debs from the debian site?
[06:03] <raynerd> yes just reading it, i see
[06:03] <serenityUK> simplechat, it's not something i've tried lol... worst case you have to hook up a screen
[06:04] <jrib> jimmygoon: extremely bad
[06:04] <ziroday> jimmygoon: i prefer nuking my machine other ways
[06:04] <bruenig> jimmygoon, its not a great idea, if you really know what you are doing, you can pull it off, but I would imagine that the type of person who knew what they were doing enough to pull that off wouldn't be asking
[06:04] <simplechat> oktanouc, i've made the script in init.d, and it works then. (running as root). its only a test script now. i'm going to reboot now, and see if it comes back on
[06:04] <jimmygoon> jrib, what if I'm REALLY desperate?
[06:04] <jimmygoon> bruenig, ah ;S
[06:04] <jrib> jimmygoon: why don't you tell us why?
[06:05] <khelll> i dont know y ubuntu can't c sd1 anymore!
[06:05] <jimmygoon> jrib, ubuntu only has 1.33.1 of libboost and I need 1.34.1 - debain unstable has those packages
[06:05] <bruenig> jimmygoon, do apt-get autoremove libboost
[06:05] <simplechat> would restart rerun init.d? or do i need to fully power cycle it
[06:05] <Ghoulunatic> Hi everyone, I am new and I have a question
[06:06] <ziroday> !ask | Ghoulunatic
[06:06] <ubotu> Ghoulunatic: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:06] <krammer_> does anybody use acronis?
[06:06] <khelll> HELP PLZ,,,,i dont know y ubuntu can't c sd1 anymore!
[06:06] <Ashfire908> what's the installation path for firefox?
[06:06] <bruenig> jimmygoon, as long as libboost isn't a dependency for another package on your system, you can install the debian one, you will need to make sure though that any other packages you install from the ubuntu repositories in the future don't depend on libboost
[06:06] <serenityUK> simplechat, sudo reboot should be ok..
[06:06] <omoore> #iphone
[06:06] <jrib> Ashfire908: why?
[06:06] <Charlote> hi guys:)
[06:06] <simplechat> oktanouc, its going down, i'm pinging it until it comes back up, then i'll ressh to it. :)
[06:06] <serenityUK> welcome back charlote
[06:06] <Charlote> i have a simple questioon
[06:06] <Charlote> i have 2 laptops
[06:06] <Ghoulunatic> ubotu: Ok, so I have Ubuntu 1.4 "Ultimate" sitting in front of me. I want to install it, but I need to make a partition for it, does the installer have a partition feature?
[06:06] <jrib> !enter | Charlote
[06:07] <ubotu> Charlote: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:07] <Charlote> above w/ ubuntu
[06:07] <Charlote> :)
[06:07] <Ashfire908> jrib running a script to install flash palyer and it wants to know
[06:07] <simplechat> oh, damn
[06:07] <jimmygoon> bruenig, how do I check dependencies? is that what autoremove is for? cause I had to do autoremove libboost*   <- it doesn't list anything except the libboost stuff so I don't think there are other dependencies
[06:07] <jrib> Ashfire908: why not install flash from the repositories instead of using scripts?
[06:07] <simplechat> connectio nerror, connection refused
[06:07] <MaxL> hey I remember on older version of ubuntu you could edit the preferences on screensavers Im running ubuntu studio, anyone know how to actually change the preferences on teh screensavers?
[06:07] <ziroday> Ghoulunatic: that is not a supported operating system for this channel but it should do
[06:07] <glick> damn i have more hd space then i know what to do with now
[06:07] <glick> heh
[06:07] <glick> rather too much than too little i guess
[06:07] <Ashfire908> jrib cause i didn't know there was a package
[06:07] <Ghoulunatic> Oh, well what is a supported version?
[06:07] <simplechat> oktanouc, up now
[06:07] <nickrud> jimmygoon, you could pull down debian source and compile it, probably safer. The only changelog entry that seems to matter is explicitly setting the compiler
[06:07] <serenityUK> simplechat, mine takes a few minutes to detect hardware give it a chance
[06:07] <jrib> Ashfire908: yep, flashplugin-nonfree from multiverse repository
[06:07] <simplechat> it didn't run tho
[06:07] <jrib> !flash > Ashfire908 (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:07] <simplechat> *ok
[06:08] <Ashfire908> Ghoulunatic, ubotu is a bot.
[06:08] <Ghoulunatic> oh...
[06:08] <Charlote> im trybig t connect them w/ samba i read the forum and i configer samba but i cant see them, i mean i have ping to ntem but i can see files and drives so i can share files any ideas
[06:08] <Ashfire908> jrib i know what ubuntu it
[06:08] <simplechat> serenityUK, yeah, was just a bit panicy :) it came up but didn't run
[06:08] <raynerd> Guys, got a program here I am trying to run, instructions say, d/l the tar file, open a shell and cd into the shell where it is extracted and run sudo command. Can some what explain the shell bit please?
[06:08] <derdcm> !unix > raynerd
[06:08] <Ghoulunatic> Well, don't I have egg on my face?
[06:08] <simplechat> serenityUK, the script in /etc/init.D hasn't been run
[06:08] <bruenig> jimmygoon, if nothing else requires libboost, then you can remove the ubuntu one and install the debian one, but you will have to make sure in the future that you check the dependencies of all packages you install from the ubuntu repos and ensure they don't depend on libboost
[06:08] <Ashfire908> jrib *ubotu is
[06:08] <khelll> HELP PLZ,,,,i dont know y ubuntu can't c sd1 anymore!
[06:08] <jrib> Ashfire908: I know, I just asked him to send you the info about flash
[06:08] <jimmygoon> bruenig, ah ok. thanks for the help!
[06:08] <jimmygoon> nickrud, yeah. I think I'm going to try the debian packages, and if it doesn't work, I'm actually going to grab the svn of boost because it has some other things that 1.34 doesn't even have yet....
[06:08] <derdcm> khelll: modprobe sdmod
[06:09] <Munchkinguy> Is there a panel applet that I can install to turn Compiz on and off?
[06:09] <glick> hmm since most new computers can boot from usb i might install ubuntu on this external drive
[06:09] <nickrud> jimmygoon, just be sure to use the source ;)
[06:09] <ziroday> Munchkinguy: fusion-icon
[06:09] <Ashfire908> jrib "it"
[06:09] <Charlote> serenityUK: is that u *kiss*
[06:09] <Munchkinguy> ziroday: thanks
[06:09] <MaxL> hey I remember on older version of ubuntu you could edit the preferences on screensavers Im running ubuntu studio, anyone know how to actually change the preferences on teh screensavers?
[06:09] <serenityUK> raynerd, shell is the terminal or command line where you type..   Applications>>Accesories>>Terminal
[06:09] <khelll> derdcm what is that
[06:10] <serenityUK> oop kiss lol
[06:10] <raynerd> ahh sorry! i see!
[06:10] <Armadillio> HOLY CRAP I MESSED UP BAD
[06:10] <zaack^> z0rz: are you there
[06:10] <ziroday> hey raynerd did you get your live cd working?
[06:11] <Armadillio> Anyone running Xubuntu and have had panel problems before?
[06:11] <Charlote> i want to say thanx to u
[06:11] <khelll> derdcm : didnt get u
[06:11] <raynerd> derdcm: i didnt understand ur bot...please explain
[06:11] <Ghoulunatic> Ok, so can anyone that is living help me out? :P
[06:11] <Charlote> becouse u help me and i fixed wirless to my laptops :)
[06:11] <raynerd> i`m interested to learn, just a lot to take in after 10 years of windows
[06:11] <nickrud> Armadillio, just state the problem, we've seen tonnes of them :)
[06:11] <serenityUK> Charlote, i was worried when you never came back is it ok now?
[06:11] <glick> raynerd, the shell is where you type commands
[06:11] <raynerd> zeroday...woking on it now
[06:11] <jrib> Ghoulunatic: best to just ask (or repeat) your question
[06:11] <Charlote> yes, everything is working perfect
[06:12] <Armadillio> my top panel won't autohide anymore, and I'm afraid if I turn my box off it will freeze like last time
[06:12] <serenityUK> nice1
[06:12] <Ghoulunatic> ok
[06:12] <simplechat> serenityUK, the permisions on teststartup (the new thing) is -rwxr-xr-x   1 root root   42 2007-09-02 14:03 teststartup and its in /etc/Init.D
[06:12] <Ghoulunatic> ubotu: Ok, so I have Ubuntu 1.4 "Ultimate" sitting in front of me. I want to install it, but I need to make a partition for it, does the installer have a partition feature?
[06:12] <Ghoulunatic> err, whoops
[06:12] <raynerd> what does "cd into the direcotry that it was extracted" mean?
[06:12] <Ghoulunatic> but, yeah, thats it
[06:12] <glick> cd means to change into that directory in the shell
[06:12] <nickrud> Armadillio, first pass for the panel is to reset it, by typing killall panel in a terminal. That will cause it to close, and automatically restart, rereading it's config
[06:12] <serenityUK> raynerd, cd means change directory   it's a command like  cd/my/directory
[06:13] <raynerd> ahh so i guess I must have to extract this file to somewhere
[06:13] <Armadillio> it says no process killed
[06:13] <serenityUK> raynerd, cd  /my/directory  with a space
[06:13] <raynerd> then cd into that.... getting there slowly!
[06:13] <simplechat> gah
[06:13] <simplechat> its not accepting my password :(
[06:13] <nickrud> Armadillio, gah. killall gnome-panel
[06:13] <Armadillio> On Xubuntu?
[06:13] <DavidCraft2> which log file do I look into to see log in attempts?
[06:13] <serenityUK> raynerd, yes you should be able to double click on the tar file and extract it like winzip
[06:13] <Armadillio> no process killed
[06:13] <DavidCraft2> or last log in user?
[06:14] <nickrud> Armadillio, oh, no habla xubuntu ;)
[06:14] <jrib> Ghoulunatic: no idea what Ultimate does, but official ubuntu will let you partition your disk when you install
[06:14] <glick> raynerd,   http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/cli.html
[06:14] <raynerd> i see yes. i`ve shoved it on my desktop, so would i cd /desktop/
[06:14] <Ghoulunatic> jrib: ok, will it give me the option before I get way far into the install?
[06:14] <Armadillio> yea, the xubuntu channel won't respond
[06:14] <nickrud> Armadillio, so state your question again, mentioning xubuntu
[06:14] <Ghoulunatic> because if so I guess I'll go check
[06:14] <jrib> Ghoulunatic: yes
[06:14] <Armadillio> I thought I did?
[06:14] <Armadillio> anyway
[06:14] <raynerd> glick - thanks shall read furiously!
[06:14] <Ghoulunatic> ok, I'll return shortly if I have any more issues, thanks :D
[06:14] <nickrud> Armadillio, no
[06:15] <nickrud> Armadillio, yes, sorry
[06:15] <MeRodent> fixed one problem. nm-applet only asks for a password if it's set to roam. Manual config fixed it.
[06:15] <Armadillio> On Xubuntu, my top panel has decided to not autohide, I think because of Beryl, and I'm afraid that, when I turn this box off and back on, it will freeze over like last time.
[06:15] <khelll> why can't i c the sd1 drive any more??????????
[06:15] <nickrud> MeRodent, glad I caught that, I'll save it for next time
[06:15] <hopender> serenityUK: You gonna be on for a little while?
[06:16] <derdcm> khelll: what did you do?
[06:16] <khelll> i didnt get ur msg
[06:16] <serenityUK> Charlote, about samba... i found it worked if i used IP addresses instead of machine names
[06:16] <khelll> so tell me what to do exactly cause am newbie to linux
[06:16] <raynerd> on linux where is the "My Documents" equivelent. Please noone point me to WNL article!!
[06:16] <raynerd> :D
[06:16] <hopender> serenityUK: You gonna be on for a while
[06:16] <MeRodent> nickrud, explained why the same setup resulted in an issue on one machine only. Extra upside is it takes substantially less time to boot as well.
[06:16] <simplechat> serenityUK, if i have access to a ubuntu machine, how do i reset the root password?
[06:16] <serenityUK> hopender, only a little its 5:15am in London  :)
[06:16] <Armadillio> You have to make your own documents file in the /home folder
[06:16] <simplechat> i have a small problem
[06:16] <krammer_> sim passwd
[06:16] <simplechat> in that its not accepting su/sudo
[06:16] <serenityUK> simplechat, sudo passwd root
[06:16] <derdcm> raynerd: wherever you want, /home/youruser probably
[06:17] <khelll> derdcm ?
[06:17] <weltschmerz> where does nfs server keep logs?
[06:17] <DavidCraft2> which log file do I look into to see log in attempts?
[06:17] <raynerd> its 5:17am up here in manchester ! :)
[06:17] <hopender> serenityUK: Stay on for like.. 1 more hour but I gotta talk to joo in private chat for the few things I gotta ask
[06:17] <simplechat> serenity its not accepting the root password, so sodu fails
[06:17] <Armadillio> it's sudo
[06:17] <messiah> how do i backup my programs?
[06:17] <simplechat> *sudo
[06:17] <simplechat> And this is incredibly annoying
[06:17] <ziroday> messiah: aptoncd
[06:17] <serenityUK> simplechat, how did you make the script then , surely you used sudo?
[06:17] <Charlote> ok so i have samba installed to my 2 laptops i have ping to them but how i han browse the files??
[06:18] <simplechat> it was responding to sudo/su
[06:18] <simplechat> now it won't accept my password
[06:18] <greentea_> Can someone help me
[06:18] <greentea_> fixing my hard drive
[06:18] <MeRodent> Now to try sort the problem with ati causing xgl corruption since the kernel update. :(
[06:18] <greentea_> its unallocated
[06:18] <simplechat> i knkow its the right one, its the same one for both my ubuntu boxes
[06:18] <greentea_> and i can't use it in windows
[06:18] <jimmygoon> simplechat, turn off caps lock :P
[06:18] <ziroday> greentea_: you need to format it
[06:18] <serenityUK> Charlote, are you trying to browse fron Linux  or from windows?
[06:18] <Digital_Pioneer> I have a friend who needs help setting up his internet in Ubuntu Studio with a WUSB54GS ver. 2. I've tried ndiswrapper, but it doesn't seem to work. (Doesn't detect the device, but lsusb lists it)
[06:18] <greentea_> ziroday
[06:18] <greentea_> ziroday help me
[06:18] <simplechat> caps lock isn't on, nor is anything else
[06:18] <Charlote> ubuntu to ubuntu
[06:18] <greentea_> ziroday i have gparted
[06:18] <ziroday> greentea_: ok...
[06:18] <jimmygoon> simplechat, when did it start doing this?
[06:19] <greentea_> its size is 189.92Gib
[06:19] <simplechat> just before i restarted when i added my script to /etc/init.d
[06:19] <Charlote> first laptop is w/ gnom and all programs and the second one is running kubuntu
[06:19] <greentea_> ziroday im not sure what to do next
[06:19] <raynerd> OK i`m in a folder called raynerd in home folder... to cd, would I : cd /home/raynerd
[06:19] <evilgingivitis_> Hi everyone, I'm running 7.04 on an Asus G1. I'd like to eliminate the time the system "hangs" at boot while it sits on "Configuring Network Interfaces"  - is there any way to do this? <timed out, missed answers>
[06:19] <jimmygoon> simplechat, well you can load in singleuser/recovery mode and do so that way, lemme see if I can find a link
[06:19] <ziroday> greentea_: well what do you want to use the space as/
[06:19] <greentea_> ziroday i wanted it to be empty and make it as storage with free space off 189.92 how would i do that
[06:20] <simplechat> oh, this is going to suck. i only have one keyboard/mouse
[06:20] <nickrud> raynerd, yes. And, ~ is shorthand for /home/raynerd , so cd ~ works as well
[06:20] <krammer_> echo
[06:20] <greentea_> ziroday use it to store vido/song/pic/
[06:20] <khelll> any help regarding my damn issue with sd1?
[06:20] <serenityUK> Charlote, oh ok..   well i only know gnome... to share you right-click on directory and choose sharing..   to browse  use  Places->Connect To Server and select samba in the menu
[06:20] <mandy> !dvd
[06:20] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[06:20] <jimmygoon> simplechat, maybe this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1936
[06:20] <ziroday> greentea_: well i reccomend ntfs or fat32 as they are both compatible with linux and windoze, fat32 is the most compatible
[06:21] <raynerd> nickrud: why because home/raynerd is like my root directory? so its given a shortcut of ~
[06:21] <ziroday> greentea_: but if linux only than use reiserfs or ext3
[06:21] <greentea_> ziroday i wanted to use ntfs
[06:21] <jimmygoon> simplechat, this looks to be better: http://www.debuntu.org/recover-root-password-single-user-mode-and-grub
[06:21] <nickrud> raynerd, yeah, it's to make life easy.
[06:21] <raynerd> ok sweet
[06:21] <raynerd> getting this a bit more now!
[06:21] <greentea_> ziroday so ext3 is ntfs?
[06:21] <logreeval> Hi, I bought this case > http://www.outletpc.com/c0617.html and i was wondering how do put a front headphone jack into it?
[06:21] <serenityUK> Charlote, actually that menu calls it Windows Share but it means samba
[06:21] <ziroday> greentea_: no ntfs is windows filesystem. ext3 is linux filesystem
[06:21] <ziroday> greentea_: but linux can read and write ntfs
[06:22] <jimmygoon> logreeval, what does that have to do with ubuntu?
[06:22] <greentea_> ziroday how would i make the hard drive to ntfs
[06:22] <ziroday> greentea_: you mean the "unallocated space"?
[06:22] <raynerd> what is ext2 ?
[06:22] <logreeval> jimmygoon: i dont know where else to ask
[06:22] <raynerd> sorry to butt in..
[06:22] <jimmygoon> logreeval, you could drill a hole in it, but an extension headphone cord, plug the male end in the back, and the female end out the front and have it "in the front" I guess
[06:22] <ziroday> raynerd: old linux filesystem the new one is ext3\
[06:22] <greentea_> ziroday yea i guess
[06:23] <serenityUK> raynerd, ext2 is a linux filesystem,  like fat32 or ntfs
[06:23] <khelll> why can't i c the sd1 drive any more??????????
[06:23] <jimmygoon> logreeval, er, your front usb ports are only 1.1?
[06:23] <logreeval> ok...
[06:23] <ziroday> greentea_: gimme a min
[06:23] <nickrud> raynerd, it's the basic file system for most linux systems, like ntfs for windows:  ext3 is an extra layer that provides journaling, making it less likely you'll loose data on a crash
[06:23] <simplechat> oh, this is not good. no vga output
[06:23] <ziroday> greentea_: okay right click on the empt space and select new
[06:23] <greentea_> ziroday . When i turn on my windows xp os i see that hard drive with 32 gb and when i turn on linux i see it as unallocated ..... with 189 gb
[06:24] <Charlote> well i have samba installed on them, i read in the forum how to configurem them and i did this form this page: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605&highlight=samba
[06:24] <greentea_> ziroday ok
[06:24] <logreeval> jimmygoon: i guess so
[06:24] <mikubuntu> Pelo: http://www.oscommerce.com/solutions/downloads
[06:24] <ziroday> greentea_: did something pop up?
[06:24] <raynerd> nickrud, thanks. I see. Yes I read about journaling, more reliable right. Vista was going to be done via journalling right, then they let everyone down due to time and cost
[06:24] <greentea_> ya
[06:24] <greentea_> ziroday ya
[06:25] <ziroday> greentea_: ok will select the size and tell it to make it ntfs
[06:25] <greentea_> ziroday in the option for "filesystem" i don't see "ntfs" but i see ext3.2,fat32,16  etc
[06:25] <blerd> d
[06:25] <nickrud> raynerd, well, that's their story. I think they painted themselves into a corner with a flaky driver
[06:25] <ziroday> greentea_: oh sorry if you want ntfs you have to be in windows
[06:25] <MeRodent> evilgingivitis, do you have nm-applet running in roam mode?
[06:26] <derdcm> ziroday: wrong
[06:26] <greentea_> ziroday i want the entire harddrive to be used
[06:26] <messiah> where is the program folder?
[06:26] <raynerd> zeroday. greentea, can u not use gparted
[06:26] <goose> I'm sure this is an incredibly stupid and easy to answer question, but how do I get the shutdown button to go back all the way in the top right corner? it's outside the main tray...
[06:26] <derdcm> ziroday: http://www.ntfs-3g.org/
[06:26] <greentea_> raynerd why not?
[06:26] <ziroday> raynerd: derdcm yes but it does not come with default ntfs creation
[06:26] <raynerd> greentea, you new to linux ?
[06:26] <MeRodent> goose, right select and unlock the buttons.
[06:26] <MeRodent> then right select and choose move.
[06:27] <simplechat> ok
[06:27] <ziroday> derdcm: if you wish to take it than do so
[06:27] <simplechat> recovery mode is starting
[06:27] <greentea_> raynerd ya.
[06:27] <serenityUK> Charlote, have you tried using ip instead of hostname such as  smb:\\\192.168.0.1\media\share   instead of  smb:\\\laptop\media\share?
[06:27] <derdcm> I'll take you
[06:27] <raynerd> ziroday, sorry i`ll butt out! i just did my dual boot yesterday and found gparted inccredible tool!
[06:27] <derdcm> to funky town
[06:27] <strike> does ntfs-3g work? is anyone using it?
[06:27] <derdcm> works for me
[06:27] <ziroday> raynerd: no no its okay lol
[06:27] <jon> i use it vcan write to the usb external just fine
[06:27] <greentea_> raynerd it messed with my hard drive now i see it as 32 gb not 189 gb in windows xp

[06:27] <vecina> Hey guys, i just cleared up a new partition. How do i make it so it automatically loads from a given mountpoint? I dunno how to set that up
[06:28] <derdcm> !worksforme > ziroday
[06:28] <greentea_> raynerd so thats why i wanted to use linux to fix it up
[06:28] <derdcm> !worksforme > ziroday

[06:28] <goose> MeRodent, it won't move any further to the right. I have shutdown, a dividing line, ktorrent, xchat, rythembox, wcid, battery, sound, clock
[06:28] <raynerd> ziroday, i`m the last person to give adive, only used linux for a few days now! But managed to dual boot two computers
[06:28] <vecina> i was able  to mount it manually but thats no good

[06:28] <derdcm> whoever was asking about ntfs-3g (ziroday)
[06:28] <nixternal> simmer down
[06:28] <raynerd> zeroday, can you install gparted live on the net?
[06:28] <strike> fat32 doesnt cut it
[06:28] <derdcm> asked if it worked, (ziroday)
[06:28] <nalioth> derdcm: let us be civil, please
[06:28] <MeRodent> goose, are any panel buttons in the spot you want to move the button too that are locked?
[06:28] <ziroday> so greentea_ do you really want ntfs or fat32. fat32 is still well supported
[06:29] <derdcm> and it worked for me (ziroday)
[06:29] <vecina> thats odd. i come in here asking about partitions and your all talking about it n.n
[06:29] <nickrud> !mount | vecina
[06:29] <ubotu> vecina: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[06:29] <derdcm> I hope this makes your screen blink or something ziroday
[06:29] <greentea_> ziroday i would go for ntfs
[06:29] <nixternal> derdcm: please quit repeating yourself
[06:29] <derdcm> you prick (ziroday)
[06:29] <goose> MeRodent, the clock is..
[06:29] <greentea_> ziroday i would go for ntfs is that possible?
[06:29] <nickrud> !fstab | vecina
[06:29] <ubotu> vecina: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[06:29] <raynerd> greentea, zerodat . my gparted live had ntfs option
[06:29] <strike> is it better getting ext3 drivers for xp or ntfs for ubuntu?
[06:29] <chaad> Hi, does anyone know how to open a xlsx or convert it to xls?
[06:29] <MeRodent> goose, unlock it before you can move anything to the spot.
[06:29] <vecina> Ya i have fstab open, ijust gotta figure out what to put
[06:29] <DavidCraft2> is there a gui raid5 utility
[06:29] <MeRodent> it has to move too.
[06:29] <simplechat> oktanouc, changed and down, restarting
[06:29] <nickrud> vecina, that tuxfiles page will show you
[06:30] <ziroday> greentea_: sorry um yes if you have the unallocated space you can format it as ntfs in wondows
[06:30] <goose> MeRodent, I unlocked the clock, but it still won't let me flush the shutdown button in the far right corner
[06:30] <vecina> k thanks n.n
[06:30] <raynerd> ntfs is mictosoft file system
[06:30] <greentea_> ziroday how ?
[06:30] <MeRodent> goose, is the shutdown button also unlocked?
[06:30] <goose> yes
[06:30] <strike> is ext3 better?
[06:30] <saxartist> ntfs fragments
[06:30] <diabolix> they all fragment. some just deal with it better.
[06:31] <raynerd> strike, what you trying to do?
[06:31] <greentea_> ziroday rite now the /dev/sde/ hd has unalloacted space but when i boot windows xp i see it as 38 gb or around there
[06:31] <ziroday> greentea_: #windows for more help but its in control panel admin options, computer management, disk maangement
[06:31] <MeRodent> goose, you don't have a double line of dots (handle) there that's locked?
[06:31] <greentea_> ziroday i know how to do that
[06:31] <goose> ah
[06:31] <greentea_> ziroday but can't i see it in windows xp as a 38gb
[06:31] <goose> MeRodent, they were locked
[06:31] <strike> or even xfs or jfs
[06:31] <MeRodent> goose, bingo?
[06:31] <simplechat> oh, :@
[06:31] <goose> oh shit
[06:31] <simplechat> i passwd'd root, but it didn't change the root password
[06:32] <simplechat> sudo bash won't work
[06:32] <ziroday> greentea_: can you post a screenshot of your gparted to imageshack so i can have a look please
[06:32] <strike> i want to dual boot xp and ubuntu and be able to move my hdtv recordings easily
[06:32] <goose> MeRodent, I clicked remove from panel, now ktorrent, xchat, wicd, and rythembox are all gone
[06:32] <mandy_> ok, i can't get the dvd player working, i installed all the gstreamer packages and libdvdcss2, and i still can't get it to stop saying "no demuxer found" how do i fix it?
[06:32] <nickrud> simplechat, sudo -i is the best way to get a root terminal
[06:32] <raynerd> ziroday, greentea, disk managment will allow you to reformat the drive ntfs. however gparted live if you install it will do a better job imo. I have been using them a lot lately and found gparted excellent
[06:32] <ziroday> greentea_: i think there is a misunderstanding
[06:32] <strike> fat32 can only handle about 1 hour
[06:32] <raynerd> install it 0 i ment download it
[06:32] <greentea_> ziroday o wait ziroday can i make it too fat32 and open windows xp  and reformat from there
[06:32] <zaack^> Hi. Yesterday I asked why when I had color prompt, the aligment was mistaken. Well, I found it: we need to tell bash that some chars are non-printable character by surrounding them with \[ and \] . By doing that, bash can calculate length and stuff :)
[06:32] <ziroday> greentea_: yes
[06:32] <simplechat> nickrud Its not accepting the root password i gave it 10 secs ago
[06:33] <simplechat> this is really starting to get wierd
[06:33] <ziroday> greentea_: but please post that screenshot i believe there is a misunderstanding
[06:33] <nickrud> simplechat, odd that. you sure you didn't typo somewhere?
[06:33] <serenityUK> strike, xfs is the best performance... the only drawback is you cannot shrink an xfs partition,  but you can grow it.
[06:33] <simplechat> yes
[06:33] <simplechat> i've just come back from single user mode
[06:33] <simplechat> because it wouldn't accept the password then
[06:33] <strike> i dont need to shrink it i just need read write under xp and ubuntu, out of the box if possible
[06:33] <simplechat> and its still not running the script
[06:34] <MeRodent> goose, just click on add to panel and choose notification area.
[06:34] <nickrud> simplechat, do sudo -i and reset the password again
[06:34] <greentea_> ziroday let me try
[06:34] <serenityUK> strike, i have also had an 8gb hd movie on xfs it is invented by silicon graphics for handling large files
[06:34] <simplechat> nickrud, sudo isn't working
[06:34] <simplechat> i'll restart it again into single user mode?
[06:34] <strike> the whole part will be shared so i need read and write access
[06:34] <goose> MeRodent, alright, I got all my icons back
[06:34] <goose> thanks
[06:34] <serenityUK> strike not sure about xp using xfs,,  xp can read ext3
[06:35] <MeRodent> goose, no probs.
[06:35] <panji-21> #surabaya
[06:35] <raynerd> right stuck again! Trying to get this reconstructor to work. I have extracted the file to /home/raynerd and it says open shell , cd /home/raynerd and then sudo python reconstructor.py but I get a message saying no such directory! ?? any advice?
[06:35] <strike> ext3 should be fine i guess i need drivers
[06:35] <simplechat> oktanouc, atm i'm in my ubuntu "sudo-admin" account?
[06:35] <simplechat> *ok
[06:36] <simplechat> it could be that node isn't in sudoers?
[06:36] <nickrud> simplechat, ah. yes. Then make sure that /etc/hostname has one word as the hostname, and that the same word appears after 127.0.0.1 localhost in /etc/hosts , and then run /etc/init.d/hostname.sh. Then do chmod 440 /etc/sudoers  That should fix sudo
[06:36] <xfiles_ken> Pici, hello
[06:36] <ziroday> raynerd: to the .py file or  to your /home/raynerd?
[06:37] <serenityUK> strike http://www.fs-driver.org/
[06:37] <raynerd> to the .py
[06:37] <simplechat> /etc/hostname is a single word, but i have two lines
[06:37] <divra> Need help please
[06:37] <jmg> hi all
[06:37] <ziroday> raynerd: have you made it executable?
[06:37] <jmg> what does window decorations in gutsy?
[06:37] <nickrud> simplechat, one line only
[06:37] <simplechat> in cat /etc/hosts | grep "localhost" i have one line 127.0.0.1 localhost
[06:37] <jmg> mine have dissapeared, how can i get them back?
[06:37] <raynerd> :-S ??
[06:38] <divra> I just updated from dapper to edgy
[06:38] <ziroday> jmg: compiz fusion or metacity i believe
[06:38] <divra> everything went fine
[06:38] <simplechat> *one word in /etc/hostname
[06:38] <darkgamer20> hey anyone here experienced a little with asterisk? need some help on (i think) a simple task
[06:38] <strike> can i use it with ext3? or should i use ext2
[06:38] <divra> but now I don't have a control menu at the top
[06:38] <ziroday> raynerd: sudo chmod a+x reconstructor.py
[06:38] <jmg> compiz is running, i dont think it does decorations
[06:38] <ziroday> raynerd: i think
[06:38] <serenityUK> nickrud, but if he has no root password how can he chmod?
[06:38] <ziroday> jmg: sorry emerald
[06:38] <jmg> ziroday: emerald fails
[06:39] <raynerd> yes, just looked in its properties and it is exacutable
[06:39] <ziroday> jmg: than metacity
[06:39] <strike> there is nothing on that site just a frontpage
[06:39] <nickrud> serenityUK, a messed root password, and a messed sudo. Ouch.
[06:39] <simplechat> ziroday, i'm in my main ubuntu user, i've chmoded /ect/sudoers
[06:39] <jmg> metacity fails too
[06:39] <simplechat> but i still can't login
[06:39] <ziroday> raynerd: hmm when you do ls -l in the directory what do you see?
[06:39] <simplechat> *sudo
[06:39] <jmg> metacity --replace
[06:39] <simplechat> nickrud, do i need to add the new user to sudoers?
[06:40] <ziroday> simplechat: wrong person :)
[06:40] <serenityUK> nickrud, most people forget to set root up.... then when sudo breaks i don't know how it could be fixed.... unles you mount the drive in another linux system maybe?
[06:40] <FreeLanceTux> safasg
[06:40] <xfiles_ken> join #ubuntu-cn
[06:40] <nickrud> simplechat, no, you'd add the new user to the admin group:  sudo adduser <user> admin, or as root, adduser <user> admin
[06:40] <raynerd> whoo~! nice one zeroday
[06:41] <raynerd> wasnt in the right place, got it now!
[06:41] <MeRodent> how can I check xorg version?
[06:41] <jmg> emerald-theme-manager doesnt update the themes
[06:41] <ziroday> raynerd: what did i do?
[06:41] <nickrud> serenityUK, with no root password, you get root automatically in the recovery mode; then those commands work
[06:41] <ziroday> raynerd: oh rite sure np
[06:41] <simplechat> nickrud, ok, added as admin
[06:41] <drkfce> I have a dual boot machine, with windows and Kubuntu, and while the router works properly in windows, ubuntu will not recieve an IP, static or not.  I've tried ifconfig down and dhclient.  Is there anything else I can do?
[06:41] <serenityUK> nickrud, ooo top man
[06:41] <ziroday> raynerd: ill be impressed if you get this working i wish i had a teacher like you
[06:41] <raynerd> balls, lol it says not got the right dependecies
[06:41] <ziroday> raynerd: what dependencies?
[06:41] <raynerd> haha, I`m gonna damn well get it working. Sunday tomorrow and back in school Monday!
[06:41] <raynerd> 24 hours lol
[06:42] <ziroday> raynerd: lol
[06:42] <simplechat> nickrud, worked now. :)
[06:42] <nickrud> serenityUK, I got sudo savvy when I blew up my system with a root rm -rf in the wrong terminal :)
[06:42] <raynerd> its making it 100x harder as I`m trying to learn how to use linux at the same time!!
[06:42] <simplechat> nickrud, now back to getting it to run my script :(
[06:42] <decay> howcome everytime i logon to windows after using ubuntu, my windows time is 4 hours ahead?
[06:42] <nickrud> simplechat, luck then
[06:42] <ziroday> raynerd: did you find the right dependencies?
[06:43] <nickrud> simplechat, and do something with your root password: sudo -i , then passwd
[06:43] <simplechat> nickrud, i'm trying to run a simple script on startup, i've put it in /etc/init.d called it teststartup.sh, chmoded +x and 775 it but it doesn't seem to run on startup
[06:43] <Jordan_U> decay, Linux uses GMT by default ( actually all OS's other than Windows )
[06:43] <raynerd> i`m looking now, I think I need to allow Universe or something...I`m confused again lol
[06:43] <serenityUK> nickrud, i suppose a liveCD could have fixed it anyway getting abit excited with moving the HD lol
[06:43] <simplechat> nickrud, i've set it :)
[06:43] <saxartist> i used to get sasser worm symptoms when I altered stuff in the ntfs part. from ubunto decayHeh...
[06:43] <raynerd> it is 5:45am !!!
[06:43] <saxartist> consider yourself lucky
[06:43] <Jordan_U> decay, You can change it, there is probably a guide @ help.ubuntu.com
[06:43] <decay> Jordan_U, but i set it to eastern time
[06:43] <ziroday> raynerd: tell me what the dependencies listed are
[06:44] <decay> Jordan_U, oh ok
[06:44] <serenityUK> raynerd, yes same here in London
[06:44] <nickrud> simplechat, init.d is a place to keep all those startup scripts; they're actually called from /etc/rc*.d  To set your script to run:  sudo update-rc.d <scriptname> defaults
[06:44] <Jordan_U> decay, It uses GMT then displays the time by offsetting from GMT, windows uses the local time internally
[06:44] <decay> oh
[06:45] <raynerd> ziroday: libbogl-dev , libusplash-dev, fakeroot
[06:45] <simplechat> oktanouc, but if i change its name, i need to change update-rc.d?
[06:45] <raynerd> can you install dependencies via a shell?
[06:45] <serenityUK> raynerd, yes sudo apt-get packagename
[06:45] <ziroday> raynerd: yes sudo aptitude install {dependencies}
[06:46] <Jordan_U> raynerd, Yes, just install the package with apt-get, dependencies are installed automatically
[06:46] <simplechat> nickrud, i've just added it. including the .sh ending, i was given a couple lines of /etc/rc0.d -> ../init.d/nodestartup.sh
[06:46] <ziroday> i mean package name sorry
[06:46] <simplechat> i'll reboot and see it it works?
[06:46] <Jordan_U> raynerd, What are you trying to install?
[06:46] <divra> just updated from dapper to edgy, I'm missing the "control bar" at the top of the screen.  Any Idea's?
[06:46] <raynerd> yes ill try
[06:46] <nickrud> simplechat, it's also been added to all the /etc/rc dirs; and yes
[06:46] <raynerd> jordan_U : reconstructor
[06:46] <ziroday> Jordan_U: hes running a script to remove the install option from the livecd
[06:46] <Jordan_U> simplechat, Make sure it is executable and for security only modifiable by root
[06:46] <simplechat> nickrud, will a restart rerun the script?
[06:46] <raynerd> thats the one ;)
[06:47] <demonspork> the P key isn't working at all in ubuntu unless I use it with Shift+P.  I need helP, and I have tried USB, and PS/2 keyboards, changing the X keyboard settings, everything, but it just won't work
[06:47] <simplechat> Jordan_U, chmod 755 should do it? (after +X)?
[06:47] <schrankage> anyone have exp w/ a belking 75d7010 5100 wireless g card
[06:47] <schrankage> belkin*
[06:47] <nickrud> simplechat, do ls /etc/rc2.d ; if your script is in there, with Snn at the beginning, it will run
[06:47] <simplechat> :) ok
[06:47] <Jordan_U> ziroday, Why not remaster the LiveCD without the installer package ( forget the name )
[06:47] <Jordan_U> ?
[06:47] <raynerd> sorry another qestion, when your in a shell and you do a cd command into a file, how do you exit again back to home or like normal prompt??
[06:48] <z0rz> zaack^: What's up?
[06:48] <ziroday> raynerd: just do cd /home
[06:48] <Jordan_U> MeRodent, Did you use envy or install drivers from ati.com directly?
[06:48] <bulmer> raynerd: you dont cd to a file, only to a directory
[06:48] <raynerd> Jordan_U if you can do it please talk me through !
[06:48] <raynerd> yes, ment that sorry
[06:48] <GoldenDog> question :  anyone know the fix for the dev\null error when logging into a tty?
[06:48] <MeRodent> Jordan_U, installed ati.com drivers. Envy only lists nvidia drivers.
[06:49] <simplechat> nickrud, ok, all set up, chmoded 755 and +x and now rebooting :)
[06:49] <ziroday> MeRodent: well you installed the wrong drivers for your kernel
[06:49] <ziroday> MeRodent: the drivers are in the repos for you
[06:49] <serenityUK> raynerd, you can use  cd ..  to go back up one directory  or    cd ~    to go home
[06:49] <Jordan_U> MeRodent, You need to re-install them, there was a kernel update recently ( if you use the packaged ones though they update automatically )
[06:50] <Jordan_U> GoldenDog, Is your shell set to /dev/null ?
[06:50] <MeRodent> Jordan_U, the problem occurred after the kernel update.
[06:50] <blerd> okay so, linus dislikes Gnome. But does that also mean he descourages the use of GTK, because we simply cannot survive without it.....just woundering...
[06:51] <MeRodent> So how do I reinstall the ati drivers for the current kernel?
[06:51] <Jordan_U> MeRodent, That is normal when you don't use the packaged drivers
[06:51] <Dr_willis> blerd,  he dislikes the gnome dev's 'mentality' I recall..
[06:51] <Jordan_U> MeRodent, Same way you installed them in the first place
[06:51] <blerd> ah yea better read up on it..
[06:51] <serenityUK> blerd, linus like the options in KDE.. he says a power user should be able to fiddle till his hearts  content in the preferences, not have them hidden away for babies
[06:51] <nickrud> some people like to be able to twiddle switches, others like switches twiddled
[06:51] <GoldenDog> Jordan_U :  not sure, just dl'd and installed from the cd, on reboot it sent me to tty1 and when I attempt to logon it throws a permissions error for dev\null
[06:51] <Jordan_U> MeRodent, Or, remove the ati.com ones and use Restricted Manager and never have to deal with it again
[06:51] <serenityUK> blerd, i do not know that he doesn't like gtk
[06:52] <simplechat> nickrud, yay it worked :)
[06:52] <nickrud> simplechat, great!
[06:52] <simplechat> :)
[06:52] <Jordan_U> GoldenDog, Can you boot into recovery mode?
[06:53] <nickrud> simplechat, what's your script supposed to do?
[06:53] <GoldenDog> I will try....   any advice once I get there ?
[06:53] <jon> anyone how to deal with ltsp ?
[06:53] <scrapnon> hey all
[06:53] <ziroday> jon: yes
[06:53] <ari_stress> hey
[06:53] <simplechat>  nickrud, atm its just a test script, writing whoami to a file, but i'm going to set up a small cluster pretty soon :) and this is the cluster controller code
[06:53] <simplechat> (i'm going to move to another linux platform tho, one without a gui)
[06:54] <scrapnon> has anyone tried to update to the gutsy kernel in feisty?
[06:54] <Jordan_U> GoldenDog, If the error is not a symptom of a greater problem then you should just be able to correct the permissions for /dev/null
[06:54] <MeRodent> How do I reconfigure xorg to use non-restricted drivers?
[06:54] <GoldenDog> ok  thank you :)
[06:54] <nickrud> simplechat, oh, have fun. You might want to look at /etc/init.d/screen , for a sample of how to set up the script to run on startup and shutdown
[06:54] <Jordan_U> !xconfig | MeRodent
[06:54] <ubotu> MeRodent: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[06:55] <simplechat> nickrud, shutdown? so i get another message (rather then just a kill signal)?
[06:55] <MeRodent> Jordan_U, then choose ati instead of fglrx?
[06:55] <Jordan_U> MeRodent, You can also just use Restricted Manager from the GUI, but I assume you can't get to the GUI :)
[06:55] <nickrud> simplechat, yeah, the script gets called with a parameter on startup, and another on shutdown. the screen script is very simple and easy to see how it's done.
[06:55] <Jordan_U> MeRodent, Yes, and if that doesn't do it, vesa
[06:56] <decay> ATI won't work unless you installed the driver. Use vesa, download the driver, install
[06:56] <MeRodent> Jordan_U, I can as the mesa drivers work with the ati.com drivers. Just xgl that has an issue.
[06:56] <MajorPoopyPants> my ati card works fine
[06:56] <MajorPoopyPants> i used the restricted driver
[06:57] <MeRodent> MajorPoopyPants, I can use the restricted driver provided I don't use xgl (and I want to run beryl so I need to use xgl).
[06:57] <nickrud> MajorPoopyPants, you are lucky. I had to go to gutsy for reliable ati, and it's still not reliable enough with my chip
[06:57] <KrnlKlin1> anyone use an asus m2npv-vm and are able to get rid of the high pitch noise / get multiple channel sound?
[06:57] <Jordan_U> MeRodent, You don't need XGL with the open source drivers, if Compiz will work at all it will work without it.
[06:57] <MajorPoopyPants> bummer rodent
[06:57] <z0rz> Could someone help me setup xgl for multiple users on an ATI system?
[06:57] <z0rz> I'm getting: Cannot create server lock file : /tmp/.X1-lock
[06:57] <z0rz> when I login from another user
[06:57] <simplechat> nickrud, ok. seems fun :)
[06:57] <schrankage> anyone have exp w/ a belking 75d7010 5100 wireless g card
[06:58] <Jordan_U> z0rz, Try #ubuntu-effects
[06:58] <schrankage> belkin*
[06:58] <nickrud> simplechat, yeah, gives you all kinds of things to do with that script ;)
[06:58] <Jordan_U> !anyone | schrankage
[06:58] <ubotu> schrankage: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:58] <z0rz> Jordan_U: I did.. no one is there
[06:58] <MeRodent> On the other hand I'm using the latest nvidia drivers on my computer (the ati's are in my daughters computers) and had no problem with the kernel update.
[06:58] <Jordan_U> MeRodent, You should have had one, it might just be failing to nv instead of nvidia.
[06:58] <weltschmerz> where are the error logs for nfs?
[06:59] <weltschmerz> i'm trying to figure out why the *&$# my computer says permission denied when my laptop tries to mount this nfs share.
[06:59] <serenityUK> nickrud, ha im running gutsy 64bit too..  but i boycotted ati and got an nvidia for nice drivers
[06:59] <nickrud> weltschmerz, probably /var/log/syslog, or some file in that directory
[06:59] <weltschmerz> syslog?
[07:00] <MajorPoopyPants> im using ati because nvidia works like shit with my gf4mx440 now
[07:00] <nickrud> serenityUK, I bought a laptop, good but skimped on video to keep the price down. ati 200m express. Nice for regular work, and xgl works well in gutsy, but issues with vmware.
[07:00] <Enul> i need help compiling some drivers
[07:00] <MeRodent> Jordan_U, definately not. The nv drivers lagged substantially with beryl. Additionally the nvidia control panel is showing as running 100.14.11
[07:00] <Jordan_U> MajorPoopyPants, ATI has horrible Linux support
[07:00] <serenityUK> weltschmerz,  look in System->Admin->SystemLogs
[07:00] <Jordan_U> Enul, Are you sure? What drivers?
[07:00] <MajorPoopyPants> Jordan yeah I know but it works and rightnow the nvidia doesnt
[07:01] <MeRodent> brb
[07:01] <Jordan_U> MajorPoopyPants, Did you install the drivers before or after the kernel upgrade?
[07:01] <Enul> jordan_U i have drivers for nostromo n52 speedpad i need to compile but cant figure it out
[07:01] <MeRodent> I hope.
[07:01] <MajorPoopyPants> after
[07:01] <gluttony> has anyone used Screenlets with any success?
[07:01] <serenityUK> nickrud, oh a lappy, well i would've forgone 3d and got intel gfx i think.
[07:01] <serenityUK> gluttony, yes i run screenletts
[07:02] <ziroday> gluttony: you have to wget the .deb files
[07:02] <m12> hi
[07:02] <serenityUK> welcome
[07:02] <nickrud> serenityUK, it was all a tradeoff. I'm satisfied with it for what it needs to do.
[07:02] <gluttony> serenityUK, how did you go about installing? i am having the most awful time with it
[07:02] <Enul> jordan any ideas?
[07:03] <sciboy> How do you recommend I split a file into chunks that're more email attachment friendly?
[07:03] <sciboy> Is there an option in file-roller that can do it?
[07:03] <KrnlKlin1> can you install ubuntu to an iscsi target?
[07:03] <gluttony> ziroday, can you give me a decent walk through to install, im having no success
[07:03] <Dr_willis>  iscsi ?
[07:04] <schrankage> on the compatibility list located here, my card is listed as incompatible with feisty, the f5d7010 5100 belkin, i was wondering if anyone had found a workaround
[07:04] <Enul> i need help compiling some drivers please
[07:04] <ziroday> gluttony: are you using the .debs or the source>
[07:04] <schrankage> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBelkin
[07:04] <serenityUK> gluttony, instructions here http://www.compiz.org/Desktop_Screenlets
[07:04] <_cerberus_> Hey guys, I have breezy installed on an old computer and cannot connect to any of the breezy repositories, I'm assuming because breezy is no longer supported. What can I do if I want to add new packages (fluxbox specifically)
[07:04] <gluttony> ziroday ive tried both
[07:04] <serenityUK> gluttony, you need to add the repository  then you can   sudo apt-get install screenlets
[07:05] <ziroday> gluttony: look at the link serenityUK gave you
[07:05] <nickrud> _cerberus_, you'd have to compilte it from sources. Better would be to upgrade, you're missing a lot of security fixes
[07:05] <gluttony> serenityUK i have tried what that guide said, but it didnt work
[07:05] <serenityUK> gluttony, which bit did you get to?
[07:06] <gluttony> serenityUK i might have left off the fact that im a linux noob and dont even know how to 'make install'
[07:06] <nickrud> _cerberus_, upgrading to dapper is easy (if you have net) and is good until 2009
[07:06] <_cerberus_> nickrud, as the computer is only connected when I need to add packages and is behind a firewall security isn't an issue, new versions of ubuntu run painfully slow and have remoevd the 'server install' option
[07:06] <serenityUK> gluttony, you don;t need to ..  its a .deb file once you set up the repository its easy
[07:07] <gluttony> serenityUK i did that one too
[07:07] <_cerberus_> nickrud, I have net, but it's dial up, makes things a little slow.
[07:07] <nickrud> _cerberus_, an upgrade would only upgrade the stuff you have, essentially. and you probably know that apt deals well with multi-night downloads :)
[07:07] <tigran> is there a program in linux that can make virtual cd drives?
[07:07] <MeRodent> Can I just logout or do I need to restart to start use the new xorg graphics settings?
[07:08] <v> Einige deutsch hier?
[07:08] <nickrud> _cerberus_, but back to your real question, compiling
[07:08] <serenityUK> gluttony, so you open System->Admin->Sources and goto the third party tab.....
[07:08] <simplechat> heheh :D
[07:08] <simplechat> it works!
[07:08] <simplechat> :)
[07:08] <tigran> is there a program in linux that can make virtual cd drives?
[07:08] <serenityUK> MeRodent, crtl-alt-backspace to restart X
[07:08] <nickrud> MeRodent, new kernel module?
[07:08] <n2diy> ! de | v
[07:08] <ubotu> v: Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[07:08] <MeRodent> v, Ich rede Deutsch aber nichts techiches.
[07:09] <gluttony> serenityUK, ok, i opned it
[07:09] <weltschmerz> syslog did it!  thanks.
[07:09] <_cerberus_> nickrud, the problem with compiling is I don't meet all the dependancies and can no longer get the required versions without replacing my entire build enviroment, gcc is getting big, takes along time to download
[07:09] <v> danke ubotu
[07:09] <serenityUK> gluttony, click add and  paste this :    deb http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu feisty screenlets
[07:09] <MeRodent> nickrud, just change to vesa. ati still has corruption on xgl.
[07:09] <mathaeous> are compiz-extra and compiz-fusion-plugins-extra one and the same?
[07:09] <gluttony> serenityUK, and i added the deb
[07:10] <serenityUK> gluttony, close it will want to update
[07:10] <nickrud> _cerberus_, I understand what you're talking about. I lived at the bottom of a 3k pipe for about a half a year and ran (tried) unstable
[07:10] <nickrud> MeRodent, then log out, hit ctl-alt-backspace, login
[07:10] <gluttony> serenityUK, say yes to the update right?
[07:10] <serenityUK> gluttony, yes
[07:10] <weltschmerz> This line is in my exports -> /home/weltschmerz/ado 192.168.0.1/24(ro,async)
[07:11] <weltschmerz> but syslog says: refused mount request from LIBERECO.local for /home/weltschmerz/ado (/): not exported
[07:11] <_cerberus_> so I take it there are no legacy repositories anywhere I could just add to my sources.list file
[07:11] <gluttony> serenityUK, ok, i did that, and my ony errors were wine related
[07:11] <tigran> is there a program in linux that can make virtual cd drives or cd emulator?
[07:11] <serenityUK> gluttony, open a console by going to Applications->Accessories->Terminal   and paste this:  wget http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu/F854AFD7.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update
[07:11] <n2diy> Any idea why I can't print selected text from a webpage, using Firefox and Dapper? The printer is a deskjet HP 660C, which prints ok otherwise.
[07:11] <nickrud> tigran, to mount and read a cd:  sudo mount -o loop /path/to/iso /mnt  (you can see it at /mnt)
[07:12] <simplechat> this is odd
[07:12] <tigran> i have a .mdf image
[07:12] <simplechat> i have read only access to my smb share (mounted to /mnt)
[07:12] <simplechat> for some odd reason
[07:13] <nickrud> tigran, it should work as well
[07:13] <tigran> ok
[07:13] <tigran> thanks nickrud
[07:13] <nickrud> tigran, thank google ;)
[07:13] <simplechat> i need to change my user rights on my server?
[07:13] <divra> just updated from dapper to edgy, I'm missing the "control bar / top menu" at the top of the screen.  Any Idea's?
[07:13] <tigran> nickrud, i found that heh, and i tried it, it didnt work, so ill give it another tyr
[07:13] <tigran> try*
[07:13] <gluttony> serenityUK, what should i be looking for it to do?
[07:14] <divra> I have all of my terminal screens, and the desktop screen
[07:14] <serenityUK> gluttony, it will ask you for a password, then add the key and update the list of availible programs....  you can copy that last thing by selecting it and ppressing enter  then you can paste it into the terminal with right-click
[07:14] <divra> but I don't have the top menu bar or the bottom bar
[07:15] <divra> does anyone have any idea's what got missed?
[07:15] <jon> what can i use to login to ltsp from a windows box ?
[07:15] <serenityUK> gluttony, do not try and type it you will make a mistake
[07:15] <simplechat> this is very odd
[07:15] <gluttony> serenityUK, never prompted me for the password.  i did something, but its sitting there doing nothin
[07:15] <threefcata> everyone just a quick question
[07:15] <serenityUK> gluttony, did you copy and paste??
[07:15] <threefcata> how to remove those items in application menu
[07:15] <gluttony> serenityUK, never prompted me for the password.  i did something, compy and pasted from the site
[07:15] <sghcel> sd
[07:16] <simplechat> could not resolve mount point?
[07:16] <nickrud> divra, try killall gnome-panel ; and just on general principles make sure that ubuntu-desktop is installed
[07:16] <sghcel> QQ
[07:16] <serenityUK> !cn  | sghcel
[07:16] <nickrud> !cn | sghcel

[07:16] <MeRodent> arrrggghhhh... Still corrupt screen on xgl despite changing to vesa in xorg.
[07:16] <simplechat> what does that mean?
[07:17] <mikubuntu> can anyone tell me how to install the oscommerce download at this address?  i mean, i know how to download it, just don't know how to install after downloaded:  http://www.oscommerce.com/solutions/downloads
[07:17] <nickrud> vesa won't work with xgl, I do believe.
[07:17] <serenityUK> nickrud, ha last night some japanese guy said what?
[07:17] <nickrud> serenityUK, I missed that. Probably something not nice, if he got that advice ;)
[07:18] <nickrud> serenityUK, maybe that should concatentate the jp one also
[07:18] <MeRodent> nickrud, but it should work with the ati drivers shouldn't it?
[07:18] <divra> nickrud: it said no process killed
[07:18] <serenityUK> nickrud, i got jp with second hit but it was a chuckle
[07:18] <tigran> nickrud: ok mounting works, but i need it mounted as a virtual cd drive, do you know how i can do that?
[07:18] <tigran> nickrud: its to play a game
[07:18] <nickrud> divra, then alt-f2 gnome-panel
[07:18] <nickrud> MeRodent, eventually ;)
[07:18] <serenityUK> gluttony,   wget http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu/F854AFD7.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update
[07:19] <nickrud> tigran, what do you mean, a virtual cd drive?
[07:19] <MeRodent> nickrud, with the non-proprietary drivers?
[07:19] <sghcel> 
[07:19] <nickrud> MeRodent, some cards do. I've heard someone I trust say the 9250 does
[07:19] <gluttony> serenityUK, when i copied and pasted it, all that pasted was wget
[07:19] <tigran> right now its mounted to a folder, but i need the image to act like a cd drive, like daemon tools for windos
[07:19] <serenityUK> !jp | sghcel ??
[07:19] <nickrud> :)
[07:19] <sghcel> 
[07:19] <gluttony> serenityUK, im going to just on x-chat. brb
[07:19] <Jordan_U> tigran, Why?
[07:19] <ubotu> sghcel ??:  #ubuntu-jp  #kubuntu-jp 
[07:20] <SSquirrel> help help - I just installed ubuntu over a network initrd and it finished installing everything I have no network connectivity when it booted the new kernel... no route to host ... ????
[07:20] <MeRodent> oh well I'll try follow the instructions that got it working before.
[07:20] <tigran> so I can play a game, faster reading off hard drive than cd
[07:20] <Jordan_U> tigran, There is little difference in *NIX
[07:20] <Jordan_U> tigran, Windows game?
[07:20] <tigran> yea

[07:26] <mathaeous> ""
[07:26] <crimsun> mathaeous: it means you need to install the automake1.7, autoconf, and libtool binary packages.

[07:26] <messiah> jordan_U:where is that folder?

[07:29] <sailerboy> bin/sh: can't access tty: job control turned off
[07:29] <sailerboy> (initramfs)_
[07:29] <nickrud> messiah, you can probably find them:  do sudo updatedb in a terminal, that will index your files. Then, do locate <part of the filename you were torrenting>
[07:29] <z0rz> Enselic: Because I can't login to multiple users with XGL it gives me an error saying it can't create /tmp/.X1-lock and also it failed to open my display
[07:29] <sailerboy> what can i do for that?
[07:29] <Enselic> simplechat: most distribution software is in the /usr prefix (so the bnary is in /usr/bin)
[07:30] <z0rz> Enselic: e.g., Log into user test1 with XGL and it works fine.. log out of test1 and login to test2 and it fails .. if I run that command... then it works fine
[07:30] <simplechat> yes, its expecting samba to be in /usr/local/samba/bin/smbd
[07:30] <majnoon> fixed gnome
[07:30] <simplechat> the problem is that that direcoty doesn't exist (part /usr/local).

[07:31] <z0rz> Enselic: Nope
[07:31] <z0rz> Enselic: By the way it does this on mupltiple XGL systems
[07:31] <sailerboy> How can i fix the live cd busybox bin/sh: cant access tty: job control turned off?
[07:31] <Enselic> sailerboy: try the Alternate distro instead
[07:31] <hopender> serenityUK: It doesn't work tho, maybe let me try rebootin

[07:33] <mathaeous> autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1
[07:34] <nickrud> messiah, just about every linux command has what's called a man page;  for example    man updatedb   and man locate . We normally don't mention man pages here, because it comes off as 'you're stupid, go read up and ask when you know something'. But, those man pages will teach you a lot

[07:35] <raynerd> anyone any good at using GIMP paint. I need a pcx image for a live splash screen with Linux Science - edubuntu on it, maybe the penguine? I`m a teacher and its for school, worth while cause, nothing fancy :)
[07:35] <Enselic> sailerboy: what version are you trying?
[07:35] <yytyd> <3 ffmpeg :] 
[07:35] <nickrud> serenityUK, I never seem to get good results with that. I google, then know what man page to read
[07:35] <sailerboy> the newest one, feisty fawn
[07:35] <n2diy> cchance: battery management is not really on topic here. But what type cells are you referring to?
[07:35] <Enselic> raynerd: GIMP paint?
[07:35] <Enselic> raynerd: I recomend GIMP
[07:35] <serenityUK> nickrud, just to jog memory, its a one liner
[07:35] <cchance> Dr_willis, on vista my laptop gets 2 hours of game time whould you expect more or less in ubuntu
[07:35] <Enselic> raynerd: oh, GIMP :)   I am a developer, what are you wondering?
[07:35] <Enselic> sailerboy: do you have new hardware?
[07:36] <SSquirrel> sailerboy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows
[07:36] <serenityUK> nickrud, apropos apropos   :)
[07:36] <mathaeous> I see gettext, gettext-base, gettext-doc, gettext-el and gettext-kde...
[07:36] <SSquirrel> help help - I just installed ubuntu over a network initrd and it finished installing everything I have no network connectivity when it booted the new kernel... no route to host ... ????
[07:36] <cchance> n2diy, they are battery cells
[07:36] <nickrud> lol
[07:36] <Dr_willis> cchance,  i get about the same on windows/linux..  of course your 2 hrs can vary greately  with what you are doing.
[07:36] <mathaeous> any of those, have gettext-base already installed
[07:36] <raynerd> sorry, I cant pay or anything, Just creating a live CD for use in my school, its science focused used Edubuntu but i want the students to see quickly and obviously they are using Open Source and Linux
[07:36] <n2diy> cchance: yes, of course, what is the cell designation?
[07:36] <Enselic> raynerd: I have made some GIMP tutorials, you might find em helpful: www.youtube.com/Enselic
[07:36] <Dr_willis> cchance,  i doubt if you are doing as much gaming on linux. :) so that lets the cpu stay slower.
[07:36] <Enselic> raynerd: nono you don't need to pay
[07:37] <Enselic> raynerd: unless you want some specific functionaltiy implemented
[07:37] <cchance> n2diy, its an acer batt
[07:37] <Enselic> then it might make sense to hire someone to do it
[07:37] <sailerboy> on the alt, it cant find my cd drive, which is a plextor 740a and i cant continue
[07:37] <simplechat> ah
[07:37] <simplechat> :)
[07:37] <simplechat> sweet smell of success
[07:37] <simplechat> :)
[07:37] <cchance> dr_willis, true but if i get wine or that one windows emulator i will be
[07:37] <Jordan_U> raynerd, Edubuntu seriously may not be the right choice
[07:37] <Enselic> sailerboy: yu could try the latest Ubuntu development release Gutsy Gibbon
[07:38] <raynerd> ok, I`ll be honest friend, its taking me ages to do this CD, I just wondered if somone could knock something up fairly quickly for me as a splash screen
[07:38] <n2diy> cchance: first you said it was cells, and now you say it is a battery of cells?
[07:38] <Enselic> sailerboy: it has newer drivers
[07:38] <serenityUK> Enselic, can you recommend and linux channels on youtube or anywhere else?
[07:38] <serenityUK> any*
[07:38] <cchance> n2diy, you make no sence to me
[07:38] <Jordan_U> raynerd, The install is text only and it is made more for thin clients, if you just want Ubuntu + Educational apps it's easier to start from the standard LiveCD
[07:38] <Enselic> serenityUK: my tutorals are the most populare GIMP tutorials on YouTube, but just search for "gimp tutorial" to get more videos
[07:38] <raynerd> Joran_U - its the live CD version, so basically its Ubuntu with some apps already on! Since i`m customising it i`m actuallly using Ubuntu
[07:39] <raynerd> yes!
[07:39] <_cerberus_> nickrud, I have a copy of dapper (i think, it's 6.06) on cd. Is there an easy way to upgrade? running apt-cdrom and apt-get dist-upgrade leaves seevral key files at their old version (gcc, kernel etc)
[07:39] <mathaeous> Enselic, I installed gettext (could not find gettext-dev, do I need a particular repository for it?) and get the same error
[07:39] <sailerboy> Ok, thanks!!
[07:39] <n2diy> cchance: a battery is made of cells. The cells can be D, C, AA, AAA etc... Follow me?
[07:39] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | _cerberus_
[07:39] <ubotu> _cerberus_: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:39] <mathaeous> I swear, I only chainsmoke when I try to tweak linux
[07:39] <raynerd> I`m right in saying the Live CD version doesnt have the server stuff on?
[07:39] <Jordan_U> raynerd, Yes, but it is just an apt-get away
[07:39] <Enselic> raynerd: that is wrong
[07:40] <_cerberus_> Jordan_U,  I'll have a look, thanks.
[07:40] <Enselic> raynerd: or well, not on it, but it is easy to install
[07:40] <Jordan_U> raynerd, raynerd Depending on what you mean though, it has many networking tools
[07:40] <raynerd> Enselic: can you help in any way? No worries, it was a bit cheeky anyway. I`m new to linux and i`m crap at graphics so...lol
[07:40] <Constrabus> Anyone have a VPN wiki link?
[07:40] <nickrud> _cerberus_, you're gonna find that the net will be make or break on an upgrade
[07:41] <serenityUK> mathaeous, I used to be like that when programming... ive quit about a year now
[07:41] <raynerd> it does, but I was under the impression that only the DVD has the networking tools
[07:41] <Enselic> raynerd: if you know nothing about imag editing, it is impossible for me to teach you GIMP over IRC. I recomend you to watch my tutorials, start with The User Interface one
[07:41] <Jordan_U> raynerd, What type of splash are you looking for? You might find something good on art.gnome.org
[07:41] <raynerd> the CD basically is Ubuntu with extra apps
[07:41] <mathaeous> I quit for about a year, then the job drove me back, now linux is trying to flat-out kill me tonight :)
[07:41] <nickrud> serenityUK, so that's why the nick ;)
[07:42] <pirated_gates> can anyone help me with installation of windows 2000 in ubuntu
[07:42] <mathaeous> all this to make my desktop look and act prettier... ::weighs black, charred lungs in one hand, pretty desktop in the other...and the desktop wins::
[07:42] <serenityUK> no nickrud serenity is a spaceship from a film of the same name..  it's a comedy
[07:42] <Jordan_U> !VM | pirated_gates
[07:42] <ubotu> pirated_gates: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
[07:42] <Jordan_U> !windows | pirated_gates
[07:42] <ubotu> pirated_gates: For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[07:42] <raynerd> Enselic, dont worry about it, i`ll just keep it as standard! I`ve learnt enough about linux over last few days to get into image editing just now, I may stick to Adobe PS for a while longer on that one :p
[07:42] <pirated_gates> vm player or server
[07:42] <n2diy> cchance: ?
[07:42] <z0rz> How can I see my GPU temperature?
[07:42] <mathaeous> lol, I love the ubotu
[07:42] <z0rz> ATI card btw
[07:43] <simplechat> ubotu :)
[07:43] <Jordan_U> pirated_gates, I'd go with server, it's also free
[07:43] <m12> !windows kernel
[07:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about windows kernel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:43] <pirated_gates> but i tried to install it but it says it does not support x64 struture
[07:43] <n2diy> Any idea why I can't print selected text from a webpage, using Firefox and Dapper? The printer is a deskjet HP 660C, which prints ok otherwise.
[07:43] <nickrud> pirated_gates, you can add deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu fiesty-commercial main to install vmware-server
[07:43] <Enselic> z0rz: does  watch acpi -V  work?
[07:43] <nickrud> pirated_gates, to /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:43] <gary4gar> pirated_gates, i hope windows is not pirated as your nick :P
[07:43] <thedash> alsamixer shows that I have the wrong card enabled, but using asoundconf to change the default card doesn't seem to change that
[07:44] <z0rz> Enselic: Let me check
[07:44] <Dr_willis> pirated_gates,  theres no real need to use the x64 stuff. unless you got/need ooodles of ram. or other fancy things
[07:44] <Jordan_U> thedash, You aren't running it as root are you ( you should *not* ) ?
[07:44] <raynerd> are pcx files as common as jpeg etc. like could i find a pcx file on the net that just says "Linux"
[07:44] <serenityUK> nickrud, you have to patch it to install on 64bit i think?
[07:44] <mathaeous> lol, why pay for windows when linux is free.  And these days, if you don't want the real snazzy stuff, more head-ache free then windows too.
[07:45] <thedash> Jordan_U :: I did not
[07:45] <raynerd> I just want my students to see immediately they are using linux and not microsoft!!!
[07:45] <thedash> do I need to restart ALSA, I suppose ?
[07:45] <simplechat> oh, what is a simple way to have my ubuntu server automatically run updates?
[07:45] <Dr_willis> raynerd,  just convert one.
[07:45] <_cerberus_> Jordan_U, The site you sent me to explains exactly what I did, unfortunately it doesn't upgrade all packages.
[07:45] <hopender> serenityUK: Howcome I can't get the dumb cube effect to work =(?
[07:45] <nickrud> serenityUK, no clue. I was cutting and pasting when he added his. I'd hope that, it vmware-server is available from canonical in the 64bit repos, it'd work
[07:45] <raynerd> really?
[07:45] <z0rz> Enselic: No support for device type: thermal
[07:45] <raynerd> Dr_willis : with what prog?
[07:45] <raynerd> or app
[07:45] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, Did you dist-upgrade multiple times like it says?
[07:45] <_cerberus_> nickrud, I have net, it's just slow. I want to do as much as I can without downloading packages.
[07:45] <pirated_gates> u dont get it i have core 2 duo and it is x64 system and it does not allow me to install vmware server thru here   http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-vmware-server-from-canonical-commercial-repository-in-ubuntu-feisty.html
[07:45] <thinh> what the channel for php vs java discussion?
[07:45] <Dr_willis> raynerd,  tjheres ooooodles of image editors/converters out there.
[07:45] <n2diy> raynerd: have you asked in #edubuntu?
[07:45] <_cerberus_> Jordan_U, I did
[07:45] <Dr_willis> !gimp
[07:46] <ubotu> gimp is an advanced image manipulation application for Ubuntu. See http://www.gimp.org for tutorials and more information.
[07:46] <mathaeous> OK, brand new question..well...sorta...
[07:46] <raynerd> n2diy: I`ve been idoling in #edubuntu for days, its always dead!!
[07:46] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, Not just release to release, but multiple times between each release?
[07:46] <_cerberus_> Jordan_U, not that I see that anywhere in the Breezy->Dapper instructions
[07:46] <nickrud> _cerberus_, you don't have mixed breezy & dapper sources in sources.list, I hope
[07:46] <serenityUK> hopender, do you have wobbly windows and other effects?
[07:46] <mathaeous> using GIT to try to grab some packages, get them just fine, but in trying to make them, I run into an error with every one and the error is always identical (all but the file name)
[07:47] <hopender> serenityUK: Yeah and burn and everything
[07:47] <n2diy> raynerd: yes, it is slow there, 33 user at the moment.
[07:47] <mathaeous> bcop'ing  : build/screensaver.xml -> build/screensaver_options.h/bin/sh: --header=build/screensaver_options.h: not found
[07:47] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, Oh, I thought you were going Dapper +
[07:47] <_cerberus_> nickrud, No. I commented out all references to Breezy
[07:47] <mathaeous> this is in the process of make && make install...
[07:47] <raynerd> yes, never seem to find any answer, by time i ask and someone replies, i`m sorted!!
[07:47] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, ubuntu-desktop is installed?
[07:47] <mathaeous> instead of screensaver_options.h it will be the name of what ever I'm trying to build
[07:47] <serenityUK> hopender, there are two parts to the cube in the options... you have to nable both desktop cube AND rotate cube
[07:47] <nickrud> _cerberus_, so you'd have mixed dapper and breezy packages, with conflicts on what can get upgraded. Won't work
[07:47] <mathaeous> has anyone had any experience with these errors?
[07:47] <hopender> serenityUK: You betcha
[07:48] <raynerd> right shall log into windows :0 first time in two days, create a jpeg and brb!!
[07:48] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, What packages aren't upgrading?
[07:48] <_cerberus_> Jordan_U, that is the one area I differed from the instructions. I specifically do not want ubuntu-desktop installed. I may have to install it, run the update and uninstall it.
[07:48] <serenityUK> hopender,  rotate cube too?
[07:48] <hopender> yup
[07:48] <pirated_gates> hey plz help me out here
[07:49] <Tidus> question.  what's the recommended way to set up NAT forwarding?
[07:49] <serenityUK> hopender,  what happens when you press <crtl><alt><downarrow>
[07:49] <pirated_gates> i need to install windows 2000 in ubuntu 7.0 feisty x64
[07:49] <_cerberus_> Jordan_U, c++, gcc, libstdc++6 are the big ones
[07:49] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, That is easiest, though server / base / other packages may get you there also
[07:49] <hopender> I drag a box across my screen
[07:49] <hopender> as in high lighting stuff
[07:49] <z0rz> Why does it take 30 seconds before a login screen appears when I ssh to my local ubuntu box?
[07:49] <Tidus> i plan on using this machine as a router
[07:49] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, *meta-packages
[07:49] <serenityUK> hopender,  what happens when you press <crtl><alt><leftarrow>?
[07:49] <hopender> well tahts when i hilight stuff
[07:49] <hopender> the down arrow
[07:50] <hopender> brings up a box thingy that asks me
[07:50] <_cerberus_> As I did a server install I'm assuming the server meta package would be installed.
[07:50] <hopender> what space i wanna work on
[07:50] <serenityUK> left or right arrow?
[07:50] <arestaaaaaaaaaaa> yrtywerter
[07:50] <pirated_gates> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-vmware-server-from-canonical-commercial-repository-in-ubuntu-feisty.html i tried this but it did not work
[07:50] <hopender> ahh my wobbly windows doesn't work anymore
[07:50] <hopender> neither does my burn
[07:50] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, If you have a package list ( small chance but I'll mention anyway ) you could deselect-upgrade
[07:50] <serenityUK> hopender, you are using the left control and left alt?
[07:50] <nickrud> Jordan_U, you should note that _cerberus_ has been running breezy, and installing packages, of course. He's done apt-cdrom , but commented out all the network lines.
[07:51] <hopender> yes\
[07:51] <hopender> my wobbly windows don't work anymore
[07:51] <hopender> apprently neither does emerald
[07:51] <Fla> Nice
[07:51] <Tidus> anybody?
[07:51] <serenityUK> hopender, press Alt-F2  and type  compiz --replace
[07:51] <pirated_gates> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-vmware-server-from-canonical-commercial-repository-in-ubuntu-feisty.html hey common u geniuses help me out here
[07:51] <simplechat> has anybody built a headless ubuntu install? (ie. with just bash/ssh and without gnome/etc.)?
[07:51] <hopender> no go
[07:51] <hopender> brb restarting comp
[07:51] <mathaeous> hopender, still have the cube?
[07:51] <hopender> no
[07:51] <hopender> i got nothing anymore
[07:51] <hopender> not even emerald
[07:51] <mathaeous> in command type compiz --replace
[07:51] <Flannel> _cerberus_: There are still some mirrors out there with breezy.  old-releases being one.  http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/
[07:51] <hopender> i did that like 30 times
[07:52] <mathaeous> ah
[07:52] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, Ahh, there may be packages that still depend on the old libraries with the breezy versions but upgrades of those packages are not available on the CD
[07:52] <mathaeous> yeah, maybe a restart, and if it still doesn't work
[07:52] <hopender> brb restarting computer
[07:52] <n2diy> simplechat: yes, research ubuntu minimal
[07:52] <mathaeous> check settings in ccsm
[07:52] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, Possibly aptonCD is what you are looking for?
[07:52] <thedash> how do I change the default sound card ?
[07:52] <pirated_gates> hey is no one using vmware
[07:52] <Flannel> simplechat: I do.  Use the alternate CD, theres a "server" (well, the wording haschanged now) install that installs the base system sans GUI
[07:52] <_cerberus_> Flannel, I'll look into it, cheers
[07:52] <crimsun> thedash: System> Preferences> Sound
[07:53] <_cerberus_> Jordan_U, I'm not sure what aptonCD is but will have a look
[07:53] <simplechat> Ah, ok :)
[07:53] <z0rz> Enselic: I found a solution in the bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xgl/+bug/115452
[07:53] <Jordan_U> pirated_gates, Don't follow blogs, follow the wiki if possible ( in this case it is )
[07:53] <crimsun> thedash: that will change all GStreamer-based ones.  See asoundconf for /all/ apps.
[07:53] <Enselic> z0rz: great
[07:53] <serenityUK> simplechat, yes on my old laptop but i still had a screen lol
[07:53] <simplechat> any way to go from a normal ubuntu instlal to a"server" one?
[07:53] <Flannel> simplechat: sure, remove all your GUI things
[07:53] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, Basically takes a current install and makes a local repository of all the packages installed on that machine
[07:53] <pirated_gates> whats wiki jordan_U
[07:53] <Jordan_U> _cerberus_, Which you can then put on CD
[07:54] <schrankage> ONCE you have the screenlets daemon running how do you open the screenlets
[07:54] <Flannel> _cerberus_: You don't need to use aptonCD, just use the archived repositories
[07:54] <Jordan_U> pirated_gates, wiki.ubuntu/com
[07:54] <simplechat> Flannel, init.d will still load sshd so i can still dial in, and it won't delete /bin?
[07:54] <n2diy> simplechat: add your server stuff with apt-get or synaptic.
[07:54] <pirated_gates> ok thanx Jordan_U
[07:54] <Jordan_U> pirated_gates, *wiki.ubuntu.com :)
[07:54] <simplechat> i'm thinking more removing the gnome stuff, because its going to be running in a closet for a long tiem
[07:54] <simplechat> *time doing processor intensive work
[07:54] <serenityUK> schrankage, copy the exctrated folders to something like /usr/local/screenlets and then run them from there
[07:54] <Flannel> simplechat: You're just removing the GUI stuff.  sshd isn't GUI.  You should probably use the methods for removing sister GUIs.  You're running gnome currently?
[07:55] <Flannel> simplechat: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde
[07:55] <thedash> crimsun :: I've been trying with those, but can't seem to change it
[07:55] <simplechat> yes, i am
[07:55] <Flannel> simplechat: follow that, it'll remove gnome, and leave you with a basic install
[07:55] <schrankage> do i start them with a python command or just the filename
[07:55] <simplechat> Flannel, it seems to require kde?
[07:56] <serenityUK> schrankage, some of them you just run like a script some of them need the word python infront  like :   python /usr/local/share/screenlets/filename/filename.screenlet
[07:56] <serenityUK> schrankage, it was inconsistent i say about 50%-50% some just run some need python command
[07:57] <Flannel> simplechat: no, it doesnt.  It's just assuming you'reusing Kubuntu and Ubuntu, and want to get to a pure Kubuntu (by removing Ubuntu)
[07:57] <_cerberus_> Flannel, I'll give it a go see what happens, though I've already upgraded most packages to dapper so it could be a little interesting.
[07:57] <serenityUK> schrankage, im pretty sure it was    /usr/local/share/screenlets/filename/filename.screenlet
[07:57] <pirated_gates> hey jordan_U u are gr8 man
[07:57] <pirated_gates> thanx
[07:58] <Flannel> _cerberus_: erm.  You've updated most packages to dapper?  Mixed versions aren't generally a good thing.  You should just finish your upgrade.  Once you're on dapper, you'll be able to jump to 8.04 in eight months as well.
[07:58] <Jordan_U> pirated_gates, np :)
[07:58] <Jordan_U> Flannel, Is it a single upgrade between LTS's ?
[07:58] <simplechat> Flannell, when i remove gnome, i'll simply be presented with a normal bash login screen?
[07:58] <Flannel> Jordan_U: it is
[07:58] <simplechat> Flannel, ie. "Username: Node", etc.?
[07:59] <Flannel> simplechat: yep.  Same as ctrl-alt-f1
[07:59] <simplechat> ok
[07:59] <mathaeous> can anyone tell me where to find gettext-dev?
[07:59] <_cerberus_> Flannel, yes, I tried an apt dist-upgrade but it failed to upgrade some critical packages, notably gcc and libc++6. I don't want to upgrade further than I have to this is running on an old machine
[07:59] <mathaeous> is there a repository out there?
[07:59] <ldz420> I have been making changes to /etc/groups and they don't seems to be taking affect anyone have any ideas?

[08:01] <LeWeb> hey guys, how can I install a different version of udev on Ubuntu Gutsy?
[08:01] <d4rkmonkey> how to I set up an IP address and stuff by terminal? I installed Ubuntu Server Edition of 7.04 on my old desktop, to use as a local server, and all you get in server edition is command line. I was wondering how to set the IP address from terminal, so its static.
[08:01] <hopender> http://z0rz.com/blog/ Follow that I think it'll work
[08:01] <CactusWiZaRd> i've tried dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[08:01] <LeWeb> I'm having a problems with udev-113
[08:02] <CactusWiZaRd> but it doesn't help
[08:02] <CactusWiZaRd> !ubotu screen resolution
[08:02] <Fusion_> hopender, settings - manager, general tab. could be the number of viewports
[08:02] <d4rkmonkey> !xserver | CactusWiZaRd
[08:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xserver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:02] <nickrud> d4rkmonkey, you'd edit /etc/network/interfaces ; if you know your ip address, netmask, broadcast address and gateway,  man interfaces will show you how to set it up
[08:02] <ldz420> n2diy: I have also changed /etc/groups~  I am working with gedit to do the editing but I am typing the command in the command line
[08:02] <d4rkmonkey> !X | CactusWiZaRd
[08:02] <ubotu> CactusWiZaRd: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:02] <mike_moose> Installing the latest gcc package on gutsy causes a kernel oops during the install. What can I do?
[08:03] <ldz420> n2diy: i will try nano
[08:03] <mathaeous> Anyone know where I can find gettext-dev?
[08:03] <pakora_> yummy in ze tummy
[08:03] <d4rkmonkey> nickrud using something like vim?
[08:03] <CactusWiZaRd> d4rkmonkey, thnx

[08:03] <nickrud> d4rkmonkey, exactly
[08:03] <LeWeb> anywone here can you please help me with udev?
[08:03] <d4rkmonkey> CactusWiZaRd that might be the same thing you tried though. You might have to edit the file xorg.conf by hand.
[08:03] <pakora_> does java work for any of you?
[08:03] <d4rkmonkey> nickrud ok, thanks. I assumed there was some file like that to edit.
[08:03] <d4rkmonkey> pakora_ java works fine for me.
[08:04] <pakora_> how did you get it to work?
[08:04] <n2diy> ldz420: ok, make sure you have write privs when you open the file with gedit! Try gksudo gedit at the command line.
[08:04] <pakora_> d4rkmonkey_ how did you get java to work?
[08:04] <pakora_> says i have to manually install it and I dont know how to

[08:06] <MileyCyrus> mez hi
[08:07] <d4rkmonkey> pakora_ if you go to Add/Remove applications, and search sun java, there is a bunch of packages about Sun Java 6, I assume Web Start is the one needed for things like firefox
[08:07] <d4rkmonkey> MileyCyrus I'm 14? I don't know how old everyone else is.
[08:07] <pakora_> let me try
[08:07] <wctraxler> me 12

[08:07] <wctraxler> zzzzzz sleeps
[08:07] <LeWeb> guys if I compile my own unmodified udev is that gonna mess up Ubuntu Gutsy?
[08:08] <MileyCyrus> g'nite
[08:08] <d4rkmonkey> pakora_ can you explain what isn't working then?
[08:08] <SUPERANTE> hi
[08:08] <SUPERANTE> one question:
[08:09] <pakora_> hi
[08:09] <pakora_> ask away
[08:09] <brasileiro-gauch> I want to accelerate a download, exploding it in multiple files like proprietary download managers how download accelerator or getright does. How can I do it? I'm looking for this feature in wget, d4x and kget for hours, but I can find anything.. ?
[08:09] <SUPERANTE> it is possible download the .iso and install ubuntu without burn a dvd but by usb pen?
[08:09] <SUPERANTE> my pc accept boot on usb
[08:09] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, there is a wget-like programm that does that
[08:10] <pakora_> yeah its super easy to do that
[08:10] <Tidus> brb
[08:10] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, do you know its name?
[08:10] <ldz420> n2diy: yeah tried this out and still not working
[08:10] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, I'm trying to remember...
[08:10] <brasileiro-gauch> hm.. I was trying to compile prozilla (it's not in the ubuntu repository), but I'm having problems with the make process
[08:10] <SUPERANTE> pakora_: spek with me?
[08:10] <mathaeous> now this thing says I need libxslt - is that the same as libxslt-ruby?
[08:10] <ldz420> n2diy: it seems like it is reading from a different file and not recognizing the changes
[08:11] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, I found 'axel' in the ubuntu repositories
[08:11] <brasileiro-gauch> yes, I tried it..
[08:11] <n2diy> ldz420: ok, so gksudo gedit filename doesn't stick?
[08:11] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, does it work ?
[08:11] <ldz420> n2diy: correct
[08:11] <pakora_> hellz yeah java works thanks
[08:11] <brasileiro-gauch> poor software.. the file I want to download is in a server that request HTTP AUTH, but axel don't support it
[08:12] <mathaeous> Anyone?
[08:12] <oldmanstan> the last kernel update seems to have messed up my system, i get a grub error 16: inconsistent filesystem structure, i've run fsck on it from another installation, didn't solve the problem, anybody got any other ideas on how to fix it?
[08:12] <ldz420> n2diy: sorry it stuck but when using the groups command it doesn't recognize the group that I added myself to
[08:12] <n2diy> ldz420: ok, and sudo nano filename doesn't work either?
[08:12] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, have you asked it as a feature to axel's developers ?
[08:12] <SUPERANTE> it is possible download the .iso and install ubuntu without burn a dvd but by usb pen?
[08:12] <ldz420> n2diy: well files change but group command shows older groups and doesn't recognize changes
[08:12] <brasileiro-gauch> no.. I just forgot it and tried another program (prozilla)
[08:13] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, have you tried 'gtm' too ?
[08:13] <brasileiro-gauch> is there a way to tell wget: just get the x bytes from a to b of the file?
[08:13] <brasileiro-gauch> humm.. gtm, no!
[08:13] <n2diy> ldz420: are you sure you added yourself to the right group?
[08:13] <ldz420> n2diy: and I have done this a number of times before
[08:13] <co_smile> halo
[08:13] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, read its description: aptitude show gtm
[08:14] <brasileiro-gauch> nice! I'm downloading it!
[08:14] <ldz420> n2diy: well I believe that I am adding my self to the right group but even if I added myself to the wrong group it should show up when typing the groups command
[08:14] <n2diy> ldz420: Does your group have the right permissions?
[08:14] <pakora_> damn man i just farted and ended up crapping in my pants
[08:14] <ldz420> n2diy: yeah
[08:14] <pakora_> im too comfy right now though so oh well
[08:15] <arun> Does anyone use any GUI apps here to manage mysql backups? are there any good ones for ubuntu?
[08:15] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, I know axel's developer. His name is Wilmer. He's a nice guy... you may try talking to him.
[08:15] <brasileiro-gauch> ah! I forgot to say: axel fucked my system.. my hdd led started to blink and the system frozen. I had to wait for some minutes until memory ends and gdm restarted

[08:15] <ubotu> brasileiro-gauch: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:16] <n2diy> ldz420: Can other members of the group do what you want?  (I'm late to the party here, so I don't know what you are trying to do.)
[08:16] <CactusWiZaRd> dammit
[08:16] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, have you reported it as a bug ?
[08:16] <CactusWiZaRd> how can i log into non-graphical mode without alternative cd?
[08:16] <brasileiro-gauch> tonyyarusso, sorry. english isn't my default language, and I don't know how to write "to broke" in simple past
[08:17] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, no.. sorry
[08:17] <tonyyarusso> brasileiro-gauch: just "broke", actually.  The present tense would be "to break".
[08:17] <brasileiro-gauch> because I have not sufficient information to post..

[08:17] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, yes you have. Developers will reply your post saying what to do to provide more information to them.
[08:18] <brasileiro-gauch> ubotu, I don't speak spanish
[08:18] <pakora_> this is the internet
[08:18] <pakora_> we speak whatever you speak
[08:18] <KurtKraut> n2diy, 'portuguese' is the language spoken in Brazil
[08:18] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, how can I know what happened to post in my system to tell to developers ?
[08:18] <tonyyarusso> pakora_: but we have different channels for each
[08:18] <n2diy> ah
[08:18] <pakora_> i have google translator for all :)
[08:19] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, you just have to say to them what you did or tried to do, the command you typed in and what happened after that. That's it.
[08:19] <n2diy> ! pr
[08:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pr - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:19] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, I will do that
[08:19] <n2diy> I give up
[08:19] <brasileiro-gauch> let me test gtm..
[08:19] <octoberdan> What's the best way to chagne a folder full of compiled binaries and documentation, into a ubuntu/debian package? To install it I've just been moving it around manually
[08:20] <brasileiro-gauch> uol! it's a graphic application!
[08:20] <octoberdan> it is organized as if it in /usr
[08:20] <octoberdan> with a "share" directory and a "bin"
[08:20] <oldmanstan> the last kernel update seems to have messed up my system, i get a grub error 16: inconsistent filesystem structure, i've run fsck on it from another installation, didn't solve the problem, anybody got any other ideas on how to fix it?
[08:20] <arun> is there anything similar to cocoamysql or mysql administrator for ubuntu?
[08:20] <octoberdan> I just want to package it so it is easier to maintain
[08:20] <tonyyarusso> octoberdan: The easiest way is with checkinstall.  The best way is with debuild and pbuilder, as described in the Packaging Guide, Debian New Maintainers' Guide, and other documentation on the wiki.
[08:20] <Flannel> arun: check out the 'mysql-admin' package
[08:21] <arun> ??
[08:21] <arun> Flannel: is it in the repos?
[08:21] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, does it work ?
[08:21] <ldz420> n2diy: well I am simply trying to add myself to a group.  So I edit /etc/group using sudo >>type the user name in the file>>save file>> type the groups command and it displays all the groups that I am apart of but doesn't recognize changes that I made in the file..
[08:21] <mathaeous> can someone help me in trying to make && install bcop?
[08:21] <Flannel> arun: Universe, yeah. http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/admin/mysql-admin
[08:21] <Tidus> ldz420: man gpasswd
[08:21] <tonyyarusso> octoberdan: (checkinstall packages will only work on your system; pbuilder/debuild ones will be able to be installed on others people's as well - this is how the repos packages are made)
[08:21] <Flannel> arun: that's the official mysql admin doohickey
[08:22] <n2diy> ldz420: have you logged out, and in again?
[08:22] <ldz420> n2diy: no, was going to try it but didn't know if it was needed
[08:22] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, no.. it don't work with http auth
[08:23] <arun> Flannel: ah alright.. i saw the tarball for that on the mysql site for red hat and suse, but i didnt think it was in the repos
[08:23] <arun> Flannel: thanks
[08:23] <n2diy> ldz420: try it, don't reboot, just log out and in.
[08:23] <balleyne> anyone know anything about domain controllers in linux?
[08:23] <pakora_> i heard wutang clan uses linux
[08:23] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, I wrote last message correctly ? "don't work" ?
[08:23] <ldz420> n2diy: it seems like my permissions are working just don't understand why groups is not showing up
[08:23] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, multiple download instances is a sort of abuse. That's why developers avoid turning their programs able to do that.
[08:23] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, well.. in this case, in sure it's not
[08:24] <ldz420> Tidus: thx for info
[08:24] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, it should be "doesnt' work", since the program is the 'third person'. You are the first person, I'm the second and the program is the 'third' envolved in our conversation.
[08:24] <brasileiro-gauch> I pay to use multiple download instances
[08:24] <brasileiro-gauch> nice. thank you!
[08:24] <ldz420> n2diy: thx for all your help
[08:24] <balleyne> anyone know anything about linux domain controllers?
[08:24] <spheard> my sound has dies on feisty.
[08:25] <spheard> died
[08:25] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, could tell me what kind of service is that ? I'd not mind if it is private stuff.
[08:25] <arun> Flannel: do you use mysql-admin?
[08:25] <Tidus> ldz420: not a problem
[08:26] <n2diy> ldz420: Good luck, let me know how it works out, I'll be here for a while.
[08:26] <brasileiro-gauch> well.. once these programs don't work (I may not use "does not" in plural mode, right?), I will tray to build prozilla again
[08:26] <brasileiro-gauch> no problems running configure script

[08:28] <brasileiro-gauch> lot of

[08:30] <ashu18> i have a doubt with Firestarter firewall in ubuntu
[08:30] <brasileiro-gauch> I know if I tried to get the file without an accelerator program, it should be done now.. but I NEED to have an accelerator now.. now, it's a question of honor!
[08:30] <brasileiro-gauch> hehe!
[08:30] <ashu18> does anyone know how to auto-start it while starting ubuntu?
[08:30] <ldz420> n2diy: hey your right groups didn't show changes until after log off and log on, but permission are effective immediately ( or so it seems)
[08:30] <arun> um, i know this is offtopic, but if my hostname is 'localhost', should i enter localhost@domain.ext as my server hostname?
[08:30] <Tidus> if Ooooyeah joins... immediately ban him.  he's spamming multiple channels at onc
[08:30] <Tidus> once *
[08:30] <Jordan_U> brasileiro-gauch, Look in Applications -> Add / Remove
[08:31] <musya> arun: yes
[08:31] <simplechat> hey, root can always see an use a file, no matter what permisions are set?
[08:31] <arun> musya: alright, thanks
[08:31] <musya> arun: for accessing your sever localy from your computer
[08:31] <Jordan_U> Tidus, You should talk to the ops about that
[08:31] <arun> musya: yes
[08:31] <musya> arun: or 127.0.0.1
[08:31] <brasileiro-gauch> Jordan_U, I did. All programs I tested can not work with HTTP AUTH
[08:31] <bikeboy> can anyone recommend a small, lightweight program for cropping mp3s? (ie. not audacity, looking for smaller and less extras)
[08:32] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, it seems that I'll have to ask it as a feature of one program.
[08:32] <arun> musya: i want to access my remote server from my computer using mysql administrator
[08:32] <Tidus> Jordan_U: i'm watching joins
[08:32] <octoberdan> Ubuntu's scala packages are terribly out of date :-(. I'm creating a new one from the latest RC
[08:32] <mathaeous> One last question then I'll bid you all a very fond farewell
[08:32] <octoberdan> Should I try to submit it?
[08:32] <mathaeous> wtf does this mean?
[08:33] <mathaeous> install   : /home/matt/.compiz/plugins/libscreensaver.soinstall: cannot create regular file `/home/matt/.compiz/plugins/libscreensaver.so': Permission denied

[08:33] <ldz420> n2diy: thx
[08:33] <Jordan_U> Tidus, I am saying that if you want some nick to be banned or watched then talk to the ops, just saying it in the support channel won't do much
[08:33] <d4rkmonkey> I'm trying to get my desktop set up properly, as a file server/internal LAMP server, and I ran ifconfig eth0 192.168.2.197 (the static IP) but now I can't seem to install anything. I can connect to it from my laptop because its on the same network, but I can't connect to the ubuntu servers to install phpmyadmin
[08:33] <musya> arun: what do you mean mysql administrator, there is phpmyadmin, and all you need is the ip address of server
[08:33] <mathaeous> spent the last two hours downloading (after searching for,) a dozen dependencies to tell me I don't have permission to install it?
[08:33] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, if you have time, step by my blog: http://kurtkraut.wordpress.com
[08:33] <arun> musya: don't i need the hostname?
[08:34] <Jordan_U> d4rkmonkey, Can you ping anything? Did you set a DNS server?
[08:34] <LiberCogito> Does anyone have a  Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card that actually works in ubuntu, and if so how did you get it working?
[08:34] <d4rkmonkey> Jordan_U I think the DNS server is the problem. its definately connected and has a working IP. How do I set a DNS server?
[08:34] <Flannel> octoberdan: Ask in #ubuntu-motu
[08:34] <n2diy> ldz420: did it work!?
[08:34] <goose> would this be the channel to ask about software in?
[08:34] <musya> arun:  well the ip address can act as the hostname, but if you have a specific domain you can use that too
[08:34] <ldz420> n2diy: yes
[08:35] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, cool! I will do it
[08:35] <brasileiro-gauch> just to say..
[08:35] <arun> musya: if i enter the domain name, it gives me an error
[08:35] <n2diy> ldz420: cool!!!
[08:35] <musya> arun: hostname = IP addrss = domain name same thing
[08:35] <brasileiro-gauch> I solved the problem with the build of prozilla
[08:35] <musya> arun: try the ip address
[08:35] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, Just so you know phrasing your question like that you probably won't get an answer, just stating your problem is the best way
[08:35] <psiko_> eae galera
[08:35] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, But do you know the chipset?

[08:37] <d4rkmonkey> Jordan_U sorry, I'm a bit impatient since its like past 2:30 in the morning and I want to get to sleep soon, I'm not sure if you saw my last message, but how do I set the DNS from command line?
[08:37] <goose> I'm looking for a program, but I'm not sure what kind. something similar to Rosetta Stone
[08:37] <musya> cookiefursec: try reinstalling gcc
[08:37] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, of course. Nice to see you!
[08:37] <cookiefursec> how ?
[08:38] <cookiefursec> where do i reinstall gcc
[08:38] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, Where are you from?
[08:38] <musya> cookiefursec: apt-get install gcc
[08:38] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, from Rio. Read my second post about metalink. It envolves download acceleration.
[08:38] <musya> from your repos
[08:38] <brasileiro-gauch> yes
[08:38] <musya> hey guys how can i get the status of my system
[08:38] <musya> ?
[08:38] <musya> other than top?
[08:38] <Jordan_U> d4rkmonkey, http://www.opendns.com/start/unix.php
[08:39] <arun> musya: how do i connect to a remote server? my hosting provider said my hostname was 'localhost', but that's useless. what do i need to enter as my hostname?
[08:39] <praveer_fedora> there is a process called fsck.dos(which i know is a program to fix vfat filesystem), which starts up on a fresh install of ubuntu and will not stop for a long time, it consumes 100% cpu, only thing i could do after 2 hours is to kill it, can anyone tell me how can i stop this process from starting at startup?
[08:39] <Jordan_U> musya, Status of what?
[08:39] <musya> Jordan_U: HDD cpu load ram
[08:39] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, I'm from RS. Pelotas, to be more exactly.. But I'M NOT GAY! hehe!
[08:39] <goose> Jordan_U, I need some kind of software similar to Rosetta Stone that will teach me useful phrases in foreign languages for when I travel that I can learn on the plane, but I need one that will work with Ubuntu
[08:39] <musya> maybe top will do it
[08:39] <Jordan_U> !boot | praveer_fedora
[08:39] <ubotu> praveer_fedora: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[08:39] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, I promise ...
[08:39] <avis> blam gnome feed reader doesn't seem to update the default planet ubuntu subscription.  any ideas ?
[08:40] <d4rkmonkey> Jordan_U erm.. why exactly would I want to use Open DNS? I know what to set up as my DNS, but I just don't know how to edit it from command line.
[08:40] <lixujia> hello ,everyone!
[08:40] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, It would not be a problem if you were :P
[08:40] <praveer_fedora> Jordan_U: ty
[08:40] <Karti> Hi all, got a 32 bit install on a 64 bit motherboard, but my USB ports are not recognised. Is there a way to add 64 bit drivers as I need them for my usb wireless and usb hard drive. Thanks in advance
[08:40] <Jordan_U> goose, Look in Applications -> Add / Remove and make sure "all available applications" is selected, I remember there being some
[08:40] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, of course..
[08:40] <Jordan_U> praveer_fedora, np
[08:40] <brasileiro-gauch> I was just kidding..
[08:40] <Shadow6363> hmm, cant remember, how does one find a hard drive's uuid?
[08:41] <Jordan_U> Karti, Did they work with 32 bit Ubuntu?
[08:41] <musya> arun: ok if the server is your computer then its localhost, if the script is running on the server then you use localhost, if the script is connectiong to another db in on a seperate server from where the script is being ran then you need to connect to it with and ip address
[08:41] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, I loved your blog man!
[08:41] <frank95com> Karti, if you have installed a 32bit version you cannot install 64bit drivers
[08:41] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, nice writing
[08:41] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, thanks :D
[08:41] <Jordan_U> Karti, If the drivers aren't there they are probably either proprietary, very new, or don't exist
[08:42] <arooni__> hey folks; i have a dlink di-524 wireless router... and i'm trying to set it up for bittorrent.  anyway; i read the internet and it said to set the application settings so that ports 6881 - 6889 are free.  i did this..... but deluge (torrent clinet) says those ports are closed :(... help!
[08:42] <Karti> Thanks, it works fine with the 64 bit install
[08:42] <Flannel> Shadow6363: blkid
[08:42] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, Did you know Aurelio (aurelio.net) ?
[08:42] <jscinoz> Hey everyone, i want to install a dock under ubuntu what would you recommend: Kiba-dock, KXdocker, Avant window manager or gnome-dock
[08:42] <jscinoz> avant window navigator*
[08:42] <cookiefursec> i installed ubuntu 2 times on my desktop, it keeps freezing
[08:42] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, no, never seen before.
[08:42] <musya> how do i connect to an svn server?
[08:42] <cookiefursec> what is the problem
[08:42] <Karti> looks like I will have to suffer with 64 bit
[08:42] <musya> is there a client of somesort
[08:42] <Jordan_U> Karti, Ahh, I was thinking the other way around, if it works on 64 bit but not 32 it is likely a bug, and fixable
[08:42] <frank95com> svn co <adress>
[08:43] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, he's a good author too.. see aurelio.net
[08:43] <cookiefursec> can somebody pls help me
[08:43] <cookiefursec> ?
[08:43] <Shadow6363> Flannel, that is only showing the uuid's for drives that i have already mounted using their uuid
[08:43] <frank95com> if you would like to download the lastest svn snapshot
[08:43] <musya> frank95com: what does co do?
[08:43] <arun> musya: i am trying to connect to it with the ip address, but it gives me an error. where i enter the username it says 'cannot log in with usename@<mycomputersip>'. i'm trying to log in with my remote server username. what do i enter exactly
[08:43] <Karti> Jordan_U: I don't really have the skills to bug fix, I've only been using it for about 3 months
[08:43] <brasileiro-gauch> half I know about open source I learned with aurelio's website
[08:43] <bikeboy> can anyone recommend a small, lightweight program for cropping/cutting mp3s? (ie. not audacity, looking for smaller and less extras)
[08:43] <brasileiro-gauch> the other part I learned by myself
[08:43] <musya> cookiefursec: do you have msn?
[08:43] <musya> or yahoo?
[08:43] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, I got interested in his shellscripting content
[08:44] <cookiefursec> , I have yahoo
[08:44] <frank95com> co is checkout: it downloads the lastest svn snapshot from the adress you enter after
[08:44] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, yes! He wrote a book about it
[08:44] <cookiefursec> musya: I have yahoo
[08:44] <musya> cookiefursec: i can help you if you specifically tell me what your doing, otherwise i am guessing here, add me, musya3d@yahoo.com
[08:44] <frank95com> you can also type svn --help for more commands
[08:44] <brasileiro-gauch> He's the author of txt2tags and funcoeszz
[08:45] <brasileiro-gauch> nice magics with regular expressions
[08:45] <frank95com> make sure you have installed subversion
[08:45] <musya> frank95com: thats the think svn --help, ubuntu doesnt know what svn is, thats why i am asking if there is a client of some sort?
[08:45] <frank95com> ok, try first sudo apt-get install subversion
[08:45] <KurtKraut> brasileiro-gauch, txt2tags were a nice idea. 'Write it once: spread more than twice'
[08:46] <brasileiro-gauch> KurtKraut, yeah!
[08:46] <praveer_fedora> /leave
[08:46] <frank95com> musya, there's a graphical interface called kdesvn or another called rapidsvn
[08:47] <musya> frank95com: ok thanks
[08:47] <d4rkmonkey> gah.. just reinstalling ubuntu on the server... I'll try not to fsck things up this time.
[08:47] <cookiefursec> musya: I can not add u, it doesn't leet me
[08:47] <cookiefursec> can u help me here/?

[08:48] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: Broadcom Corportation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card.  When I first installed Ubuntu it worked with NDISWrapper.  Then I updated, and it broke.  So I reinstalled again, did NOT upgrade, and it wouldn't work.  I've tried every guide for using it with NDISwrapper and I'm currently reinstalling Ubuntu so I can try it fresh with the BCMxxx drivers instead.
[08:49] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, OK, bcm43xx is easy
[08:49] <Kenotic> I have a built in Realtek card that I use the Optical out on for sound. I rebooted and now I have no sound from movies. All of my system sounds and MP3s play fine, but any of my videos no longer have sound. Can someone point me into the right direction for a solution?
[08:50] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter, that's it :)
[08:50] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: Last time I tried that, I got an error.  But, ubuntu is almost done reinstalling 94%...so I'll try it again in a moment.
[08:50] <avis> blam gnome feed reader doesn't seem to update the default planet ubuntu subscription.  any ideas ?
[08:51] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, May be that the site where the package downloads the firmware changed again, I have a backup if you need it
[08:51] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: That would be fantastic, thank you.
[08:51] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, np
[08:54] <|beek|> bonjour a tous!
[08:55] <arun> um how do i set up ssh?
[08:55] <thedash> why can't I remove any of the comments in items I insert into the top 'quick-launch' panel ?
[08:56] <Flannel> arun: install the openssh-server package (sudo apt-get install openssh-server)
[08:56] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: Yeah, boredlink.googlepages.com/wl_apsta.o is down.
[08:56] <arun> Flannel: and how do i configure it
[08:56] <Flannel> arun: edit the config files in /etc/ssh
[08:56] <ashes23> can anyone help with how to force X to run at a certain resolution/refresh rate?
[08:57] <Flannel> arun: but, there isn't a whole lot, if anything, to configure
[08:57] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, trogdoor.googlepages.com/firmware.zip , the extracted firmware, put it in /lib/firmware and make it owned by root ( I can help with this if you need it )
[08:57] <glick> hey how can i access the euro symbol on my keyboard, its on the same key as the '5' and the '%' how can i print it
[08:57] <glick> i mean type it
[08:57] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: I've been tearing my hair out all day, help would be greatly appreciated.
[08:58] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, Looking around it seems your card may have problems with bcm43xx, you should try anyways as I have seen nothing definitive
[08:58] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: What I can't figure out is why it worked with NDISwrapper on one clean install without upgrades, and it did not on the other.
[08:59] <arun> Flannel: i'm having trouble connecting to a remote server using mysql administrator. it seems to convert my username into username@<mycomputersip> instead of the username for the remote server host
[08:59] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, No idea
[09:00] <arun> any ideas?
[09:00] <Flannel> arun: You just need to specify the other username.
[09:01] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, Ok, put the .fw files from that zip file into a folder on your desktop called "firmware", then run these commands "sudo mv ~/Desktop/firmware/*.fw /lib/firmware" then "sudo chown root:root /lib/firmware/*.fw"
[09:01] <Flannel> arun: erm, actually no.  You just need to add your other IP to the list of allowed.
[09:01] <arun> Flannel: how do i do that?
[09:01] <Flannel> arun: physical access (or ssh)
[09:02] <arun> Flannel: do i need to add a new connection before i connect to it?
[09:02] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: Done.
[09:02] <Flannel> arun: I... don't know.  It's been a while since I've done any administration of MySQL.  If no one here can help, you can always ask in #mysql (or maybe ##mysql)
[09:03] <glick> damn does anyone have a keyboard with a Euro symbol on it?
[09:03] <glick> how do you type it?
[09:03] <WONToN> does anyone know of a program for viewing images from the console?
[09:03] <arun> Flannel: alright, thanks a lot :)
[09:03] <Flannel> WONToN: ASCII artish? or what?
[09:03] <WONToN> gif, jpeg
[09:03] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, OK, now you just need to load the bcm43xx driver ( sudo modprobe bcm43xx ) and restart network-manager, and I have no idea how to do the second :) ( or just reboot )
[09:04] <Flannel> WONToN: right, but in a framebuffer? or converted into ascii?
[09:04] <WONToN> no clue
[09:04] <anandanbu> How to increase the number of workspaces from 2 to 4
[09:04] <d4rkmonkey> Hey, I just finished reinstalling ubuntu 7.04 server on my old desktop, because I messed something up before (never got any files on it before) and was wondering, how do I set up SSH?
[09:04] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: Heh, rebooting.  :)
[09:04] <d4rkmonkey> anandanbu right click the workspaces place, choose prefrences
[09:04] <d4rkmonkey> *preferences
[09:04] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: If this works, you will be my hero.
[09:05] <Flannel> WONToN: Do you want to view the actual image (pixels) or the image made up of terminal characters?
[09:05] <LiberCogito> anandanbu: Right click on the workspace thingy in the corner, left click on preferences, increase it to 4
[09:05] <WONToN> the actual image

[09:05] <anandanbu> d4rkmonkey:LiberCogito: thanks
[09:06] <Strav> he. I use ubuntu so may I ask: is there anywhere we can have free computation time for lets say, compiling code or rendering complex 3d scenes?
[09:06] <Flannel> WONToN: check out the `fbi` package
[09:06] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: Well, same result.  It scans, and finds nothing.
[09:06] <ziroday> how would i put a time limit in a bash script, something like if n is entered before 5 seconds do this, else this?
[09:06] <WONToN> fbi?
[09:06] <Flannel> WONToN: yep
[09:07] <WONToN> i will look into it
[09:08] <Jordan_U> LiberCogito, Are you using network manager or iwlist ?
[09:08] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: The built in LED indicator actually works now, though.
[09:08] <LiberCogito> Jordan_U: Both.
[09:08] <musya> ok i need advise, how good do you think a p.3 with 256 mb of ram would be for a server? running sql,php, repository server, and file server for about 5-10 sites max
[09:09] <Albaraha> my hdd harddisks are displayed as sda and sdb instead of hda and hdb
[09:09] <raynerd> anyone know how I can convert a jpeg I have here to a png ?
[09:09] <musya> and 5-10 projects in repos?
[09:09] <mattg> hey all, how do i remove the edges on my panel??
[09:09] <Albaraha> raynerd, did you gimp?
[09:09] <Jordan_U> !UUID | Albaraha
[09:09] <ubotu> Albaraha: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[09:09] <LiberCogito> raynerd: Open it with GIMP, file, save as copy, select filetype.
[09:10] <raynerd> hehe, perhaps I`m being daft, but I cant see a save as copy!
[09:10] <WONToN> fbi, being a 3 letter acronym is a little hard to google, what does it shand for anyways?
[09:10] <n2diy> can I create a link in gedit to open up another gedit file?
[09:10] <anandanbu> I have installed Compiz-Fusion and im not able to obtain cube while rotating it
[09:11] <dns_56> have you selected to use it?
[09:11] <raynerd> got it !
[09:11] <raynerd> nice one!
[09:12] <bauer_> howto download an install tux

[09:12] <d4rkmonkey> bauer_ ?
[09:12] <bauer_> thx
[09:12] <mathaeous> can anyone tell me how to open Nautilus from terminal?
[09:12] <hopender> Is it possible to access a remote terminal, through a terminal?
[09:12] <d4rkmonkey> bauer_ won't work if tux isn't in repos.
[09:13] <d4rkmonkey> mathaeous nautilus
[09:13] <praveer_fedora> which is the package to be installed for ubuntu for all the source file of base system?
[09:13] <d4rkmonkey> hopender what do you mean?
[09:13] <bauer_> d4rkmonkey: it's not :-/
[09:13] <hopender> like I was thinkin like maybe remote-access a terminal through the terminal
[09:13] <d4rkmonkey> bauer_ sorry then, I can't help you
[09:13] <dns_56> use ssh?
[09:13] <d4rkmonkey> hopender like through ssh or something?
[09:14] <hopender> maybe I dunno
[09:14] <d4rkmonkey> hopender if you set up ssh server where you want to connect, you can do things through command line remotely on that comp
[09:14] <d4rkmonkey> !ssh | hopender
[09:14] <ubotu> hopender: 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/

[09:15] <mathaeous> man even :)
[09:15] <WONToN> flannel, what does fbi stand for?
[09:15] <DuClare> is there an xfce application with which I can change UI settings for kde applications.. (font size)
[09:15] <fulio> what program can i use to play movies on ubuntu?
[09:15] <Qwenty> Hi folks!
[09:15] <DuClare> try mplayer
[09:15] <DuClare> maybe gxine
[09:15] <d4rkmonkey> fulio by movies do you mean DVDs? totem-xine
[09:15] <fulio> yes
[09:16] <fulio> d4rkmonkey: yes
[09:16] <Albaraha> Jordan_U, thanks
[09:16] <d4rkmonkey> fulio sudo apt-get totem-xine
[09:16] <Jordan_U> Albaraha, np
[09:16] <d4rkmonkey> fulio totem-gstreamer is installed by default but it won't play DVDs I think. totem-xine is my favourite so far.
[09:16] <Qwenty> Could someone recommend a book to learn ubuntu?
[09:16] <DuClare> don't you need install in there?
[09:16] <Qwenty> From gigapedia?
[09:16] <Qwenty> Thanks
[09:16] <fulio> d4rkmonkey: it said  sudo apt-get totem-xine
[09:17] <mathaeous> if permissions should be 644 what does that mean, what's the 6 and the 4?
[09:17] <DuClare> fulio, how about `sudo apt-get install totem-xine`
[09:17] <d4rkmonkey> fulio my mistake. its like 3 AM here, sudo apt-get install totem-xine
[09:17] <SeveredCross> 644 means: Owner read/write, group read, others read.
[09:17] <d4rkmonkey> fulio sorry about that
[09:17] <SeveredCross> Octal permissions are kinda a pain.
[09:17] <fulio> d4rkmonkey: its ok .
[09:17] <fulio> d4rkmonkey: i want to uninstall movie player
[09:18] <sauvin> Octal permissions are easy if you understand the underlying binary.
[09:18] <Jordan_U> fulio, I would use totem-gstreamer ( the default called "Movie Player" in the menus ) for most things, vlc for DVD's and also most other things as well if you want :)
[09:18] <d4rkmonkey> fulio uh, when you go applications>Souned & video Movie Player is totem-gstreamer
[09:18] <tzembi> good morning everyone. anyone know how to restrict wine access to the internet ?
[09:18] <fulio> d4rkmonkey: b4 i was using vlc where can i get that at?
[09:18] <d4rkmonkey> fulio sudo apt-get install vlc
[09:19] <fulio> d4rkmonkey: thankyou very much =] 
[09:19] <Jordan_U> fulio, When looking for applications go to Applications -> Add / Remove first
[09:19] <d4rkmonkey> fulio no problem.
[09:19] <fulio> d4rkmonkey: i did that and i couldnt find it
[09:19] <d4rkmonkey> erm...
[09:19] <d4rkmonkey> you mean Jordan_U ?
[09:20] <weltschmerz> I get a "permission denied" error when trying to mount my nfs share.  syslog says: refused mount request from LIBERECO.local for /home/weltschmerz/ado (/): not exported
[09:20] <Adlai> I'm getting a strange problem where my motherboard keeps sending "power button pressed" events (pretty much constantly), as if there is a short somewhere
[09:20] <weltschmerz> This line is in my exports -> /home/weltschmerz/ado 192.168.0.1/24(ro,async)
[09:20] <weltschmerz> so, wtf?

[09:20] <baubles> I'm trying to install Ubuntu Feisty on a Dell Optiplex GX150.. Anyway, when it gets to the gnome desktop is stalls indefinitely and there's graphics corruption. The res is 1280x1024. My question is, how do I specify the resolution in the pre-install boot options? vga= doesn't seem to work
[09:20] <Adlai> has anyone, by any chance, ever seen this before, and was it a short or a loose wire?
[09:20] <fulio> Jordan_U: OHH THANKyou lol i see it thankyou
[09:21] <baubles> The VGA menu (F4) pre-install comes up empty
[09:21] <d4rkmonkey> Hey, I just finished setting up my desktop as a fileserver/internal LAMP server, I want to set the ip address to 192.168.2.197, last time I ran the command sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.2.197
[09:21] <Jordan_U> baubles, Just switch to a console with ctrl+alt+F1 and reconfigure X from there
[09:21] <thedash> why can't I remove any of the comments in items I insert into the top 'quick-launch' panel ?
[09:21] <Jordan_U> !xconfig | baubles
[09:21] <ubotu> baubles: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[09:21] <nickrud> weltschmerz, just a stab in the dark: does nfs handle utf8 properly?
[09:21] <q_a_z_steve> Can someone help me with WPA?
[09:21] <d4rkmonkey> But I believe that fscked up my DNS, what command can I use to set the IP address to something static without messing it up
[09:21] <d4rkmonkey> ?
[09:21] <baubles> OK, thanks, it's pre-install though, and CTRL+ALT+F1 isn't working
[09:21] <baubles> it's pretty much frozen
[09:22] <Jordan_U> baubles, You may or may not want to use the alternate install CD also ( text based )
[09:22] <fulio> i have one more question whats teh best program to use to download music?
[09:22] <tzembi>  anyone know how to restrict wine access to the internet ?
[09:22] <Jordan_U> baubles, ctrl+alt+F1 should work "pre install" the LiveCD is pretty much the same as a full blown install but running from CD
[09:22] <baubles> Thanks Jordan, I'll probably end up doing that if I can't figure this out
[09:22] <weltschmerz> nickrud erm...lemme see.
[09:23] <baubles> Jordan_U: it switched to the virtual terminal after about 45 seconds and it's really stalling even on typing in there
[09:23] <Jordan_U> baubles, How much RAM?
[09:23] <m12> how can i set TUN/TAP support in ubuntu server ? there is no TUN in modconf :/ ? any tips ?
[09:24] <baubles> 128MB
[09:24] <q_a_z_steve> Whenever I connect to my WPA I have to enter, or as I read it, establish a token to pass around, A) Why? B) why doesn't this work to get me into the wireless.
[09:24] <fulio> Whats the best program that i can use to download music off the internet on ubuntu?
[09:24] <baubles> It's not my computer I'm working in btw, I'm testing how ubuntu will work on some of the ancient school computers
[09:24] <d4rkmonkey> fulio frostwire, but its not in the repos
[09:25] <d4rkmonkey> !frostwire | fulio
[09:25] <ubotu> fulio: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[09:25] <fulio> d4rkmonkey: where can i get frostwire
[09:25] <q_a_z_steve> fulio: depends on the protocol, and legality level
[09:25] <weltschmerz> nickrud dear god man, you are a genius!
[09:25] <d4rkmonkey> ^^
[09:25] <Jordan_U> baubles, That should be more than enough for the LiveCD but the alternate would probably be faster anyways even if the Live install worked
[09:25] <weltschmerz> nickrud i spent hours on this.  freakin esperanto.
[09:25] <nickrud> d4rkmonkey, here's a interfaces stanza I use at work: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36009/
[09:25] <Adlai> fulio: I'm not sure that's really meant to be discussed here, but if you wanted to download *ubuntu CDs*, I would install a bittorrent client
[09:25] <weltschmerz> no no...freak _poor unicode support_
[09:25] <asc-> baubles: I recommend xubuntu. With 128, GNOME might be a little tricks.
[09:25] <asc-> *tricky
[09:25] <nickrud> weltschmerz, eh, it's a work in progress, I guess
[09:25] <d4rkmonkey> fulio just make sure that your downloads are *legal* because I can't endorse illegal downloads ;)
[09:25] <weltschmerz> god bless the interweb
[09:25] <baubles> OK, thanks.. Do I have to download Xubuntu as a separate installation disc?
[09:25] <jhonbuendia> hola
[09:26] <hopender> !vnc | hopender
[09:26] <fulio> d4rkmonkey: k
[09:26] <Jordan_U> baubles, But the LiveCD is great for trying out even on Computers you don't want to install to, it won't touch the hard drive until you tell it to and it runs a full system ( albeit slowly ) from the LiveCD
[09:26] <Jordan_U> baubles, No, but it makes things easier
[09:26] <jhonbuendia> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[09:26] <d4rkmonkey> nickrud erm, do I need two dns nameservers?
[09:26] <baubles> It definitely wasn't slow when I installed it on my desktop, though that has 2GB and a Core 2 Duo E6600
[09:26] <asc-> baubles: Might be a good idea, unless you know how to install it from a TTY.
[09:27] <nickrud> d4rkmonkey, no, it's just a fallback if the first goes down
[09:27] <Jordan_U> d4rkmonkey, No, but many people do use 2
[09:27] <tzembi>  anyone know how to restrict wine access to the internet ? or disable wine network stack ?
[09:27] <d4rkmonkey> nickrud will those dns servers work for me too, or should I use my own?
[09:27] <q_a_z_steve> d4rkmonkey: opendns.com
[09:27] <Flannel> WONToN: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/graphics/fbi
[09:27] <nickrud> d4rkmonkey, you should use the ones your isp provides
[09:27] <Jordan_U> tzembi, Maybe run it as a user that isn't allowed to connect?
[09:27] <m12> how can i set TUN/TAP support in ubuntu server ? there is no TUN in modconf :/ ? any tips ?
[09:27] <nickrud> d4rkmonkey, or some open ones :)
[09:28] <Flannel> WONToN: like I said, check out the fbi package.
[09:28] <d4rkmonkey> nickrud q_a_z_steve what are the advantages to using something like openDNS? I just need something that works so that I can still install stuff on my server.
[09:28] <Jordan_U> d4rkmonkey, I just pointed you at the openDNS page because they have good instructions
[09:28] <tzembi> jordan_u: thanks, you know any easy way to do that ?
[09:28] <asc-> baubles: Are you in *buntu on the school computer right now?
[09:29] <tzembi> jordan_u: or howtos ?
[09:29] <q_a_z_steve> www.goooooogle.com will find google.com
[09:29] <baubles> asc-: I'm attempting to install it
[09:29] <weltschmerz> does rsync actually look at file contents or just names?
[09:29] <d4rkmonkey> Jordan_U I know, but you never told me what advantages were.
[09:29] <nickrud> d4rkmonkey, your isp will have it's nameservers somewhere on it's web pages, it's good form to use them
[09:29] <asc-> So it's actually booted from the liveCD?
[09:29] <baubles> it's gotten to the point where it has loaded GDM but it's slow and stalling.
[09:29] <baubles> practically frozen, and graphical corruption in the X, which is why I wanted to lower the resolution
[09:29] <d4rkmonkey> nickrud might as well use the ones the rest of the comps in my house are using...
[09:30] <nickrud> d4rkmonkey, seems wise
[09:30] <baubles> I thought that might have something to do with the corruption/stalling but probablly not
[09:30] <d4rkmonkey> nickrud Jordan_U q_a_z_steve thanks for your help.
[09:30] <baubles> anyway, it's been starting up GDM for about 10 minutes now
[09:30] <asc-> Heh, hm. I don't think I've ever heard of anybody using the livecd successfully with less than 256.
[09:30] <baubles> with no visible progress
[09:31] <m12> how can i set TUN/TAP support in ubuntu server ? there is no TUN in modconf :/ ? any tips ?
[09:31] <Dragon64> away_need to rest
[09:31] <baubles> the screen went black.... oh, that's just because it switched to the virtual terminal - it just took about 2 minutes to actually do the switch
[09:32] <varrock> guy can you help me! i have the windows setup ready, but is not installing. can you tell me how?
[09:32] <baubles> windows?
[09:32] <asc-> weltschmerz: It looks at name, size, and modification time, at the very least.
[09:33] <varrock> how can i install windows?
[09:33] <asc-> varrock: You're trying to dual-boot?
[09:34] <Jordan_U_> d4rkmonkey, It's faster, you can do some interesting stuff with it like fishing filtering and domain name spell check at the DNS level ( though it is arguable if that is the best level to do it at ) the only problem is that it sometimes forgets a domain ( I have had it tell me that google.com does not exist, do you mean "google.com" and when I click their link to google.com I get the same error :) but
[09:34] <Jordan_U> d4rkmonkey, It's faster, you can do some interesting stuff with it like fishing filtering and domain name spell check at the DNS level ( though it is arguable if that is the best level to do it at ) the only problem is that it sometimes forgets a domain ( I have had it tell me that google.com does not exist, do you mean "google.com" and when I click their link to google.com I get the same error :) but that is rare
[09:34] <varrock> asc:yeah i think not sure
[09:34] <Jordan_U_> that is rare
[09:34] <asc-> varrock: Put in the windows CD and install it on a partition or drive that's not being used for anything else.
[09:35] <m11> wow , under 1000 ppl in room
[09:35] <varrock> asc-:am useing live cd. so i have windows setup on my usb.
[09:35] <nickrud> must have been a netsplit recently
[09:35] <m11> must be heavy weekend
[09:35] <m11> ;)
[09:35] <baubles> according to 'top', 97.7% of the cpu usage is being spent on "Waiting for some form of i/o"
[09:35] <baubles> and the CD has been spinning pretty actively
[09:35] <asc-> I/O waits <3 :p
[09:35] <baubles> and while this is happening the computer is very, very stally
[09:36] <Jordan_U> baubles, Is the CD ROM drive good?
[09:36] <tzembi> anyone have a howto on running wine as different user & disabling networking ?
[09:36] <baubles> lol, I'm thinking probably not. it would seem the drive is bad, wouldn't it?
[09:36] <nickrud> oh, I hate those. I make sure i/o wait has a contrasting color in my panel system monitor
[09:36] <asc-> varrock: Um, okay. Do you want to install ubuntu on the hard drive and, at the same time, be able to boot windows from the USB drive?
[09:36] <Jordan_U> baubles, If not you may want to try installing with the minimal CD
[09:37] <varrock> asc-:no i want to delete ubuntu and install windows.
[09:37] <baubles> the drive that was originally in the computer was noisy and sounded like it was scratching the disc, so I tried one in another dead computer nearby..
[09:37] <Jordan_U> baubles, Only a few meg, get's loaded into RAM, then downloads the rest over the network
[09:37] <baubles> aha, Jordan.. that sounds like a good plan
[09:37] <baubles> thank you
[09:37] <onats_> is wine free?
[09:37] <onats_> !wine
[09:37] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:37] <tzembi> wine is free
[09:38] <asc-> varrock: How did you install windows on the USB drive? From a windows CD, or just by copying everything from an existing install?
[09:38] <rathel> I need some help with aMule, I have High ID, but I get no sources on my downloads.
[09:38] <Jordan_U> !minimal > baubles
[09:38] <Rhoruns> hey, is it possible to do a screenrecording without X on?
[09:38] <tzembi> http://www.winehq.org/
[09:38] <varrock> asc-:i didnt install windows. am useing live cd. i have the windows setup on my usb, how do i install windows only?
[09:39] <Jordan_U> Rhoruns, Yes, there are a few ways ranging in difficulty, purpose and speed
[09:39] <nickrud> rathel, http://forum.amule.org/ , there's a lot there about that
[09:39] <baubles> that sounds perfect, thanks again
[09:39] <Rhoruns> oh. well i just want to do a commandline instructional video, but i dont have or want X installed.
[09:39] <Jordan_U> Rhoruns, Unless you just mean recording the text from the terminal
[09:40] <Rhoruns> nah, i mean a full screen recording
[09:40] <asc-> varrock: could you explain what 'the windows setup' is? Is it the contents of a windows installation CD, an ISO, a copy of a previous windows installation...
[09:40] <Jordan_U> Rhoruns, ssh in from another machine that does have X
[09:40] <Rhoruns> ahhh!
[09:40] <Rhoruns> good idea
[09:40] <Rhoruns> thank you very much
[09:40] <Jordan_U> Rhoruns, np :)
[09:40] <varrock> asc-:i copy the windows setup from a cd to usb drive.
[09:41] <Rhoruns> lol@varrock
[09:41] <q_a_z_steve> Whenever I connect to my WPA I have to enter, or as I read it, establish a token to pass around, A) Why? B) why doesn't this work to get me into the wireless.
[09:41] <asc-> varrock: If you still have the CD, it would be a lot easier to boot from that.
[09:42] <varrock> asc-:that is the problem my windows cd is ........a copyy.... it doesnt boot.
[09:42] <Enselic> q_a_z_steve: you mean the gnome-keymanager asks you for a pas to unlock the keyring?
[09:42] <asc-> varrock: Otherwise, you could try to boot from the USB device by selecting it as the boot device in BIOS.
[09:42] <sintfix> I need kernel headers , vmware tries to compile vmon app. I installed kernel-header-2.6.20-16-generic header , but vmware-config app doesnt validate the path . I have kernel in /usr/src/linux/include installed , I have also installed kernel-package
[09:43] <Pie-rat1> Google earth gives me an error: Google Earth detected an error while trying to authenticate. Please check the following: - your network connection (can you get to www.google.com?) - your firewall settings (are you blocking /opt/google-earth/googleearth-bin?) error code: 29
[09:43] <q_a_z_steve> Enselic: I think so, but I don't have that established for any of my other computers so it never fully connects!
[09:43] <asc-> varrock: Or just download and burn a new CD. I think that's legal if you own it.
[09:43] <varrock> asc-:that is another problem i dont know how to make my usb drive bootable
[09:43] <Enselic> q_a_z_steve: do you use a wireless router?
[09:43] <Pie-rat1> no firewalls, no NAT, nothing. i can access google.com fine, just the same as i can access irc.freenode.net just fine.
[09:43] <Pie-rat1> so i don't understand why google earth would do this
[09:44] <q_a_z_steve> Enselic: of course
[09:44] <psilo2600> why does x freeze when i unplug the powercable to my laptop? and why cant i boot with out it plugged in? :(
[09:44] <asc-> varrock: If setting it in BIOS doesn't work, it's very likely that trying to install from that will be somewhat tricky.
[09:45] <arun> !lamp
[09:45] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[09:45] <Enselic> q_a_z_steve: then the other computers don't have anything to do with this
[09:45] <Enselic> q_a_z_steve: can you connect to the access point when no encrypion is used?
[09:45] <p03t> ne1 available to help a noob?
[09:45] <p03t> simple question
[09:46] <Enselic> !ask | p03t
[09:46] <ubotu> p03t: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:46] <faileas> !ask
[09:46] <asc-> p03t: Just throw it out there an pray.
[09:46] <tzembi> anyone have a howto on running wine as different user & disabling networking ?
[09:46] <raynerd> hey guys, new to linux but trying to create my own live CD, I have my reasons...Anyway one of the choice is "Please select the apt repositories you want available for your live CD". Can someone explain what this means. I`m trying to create a simple live CD that will allow students to boot up a few educational programs.
[09:46] <Enselic> Enselic -  faileas   1 . 0
[09:46] <q_a_z_steve> Enselic: I've never tried, but I know my WPA key, have it in front of me...
[09:46] <p03t> in the terminal how would i move a file from a folder on my desktop to the /bin dir? i dont know many commands yet and i dont have a root login
[09:46] <Enselic> q_a_z_steve: well if you have prolems with WAP you first want to make sure that it works without encryption
[09:47] <Enselic> q_a_z_steve: when you have problems, you start at the bottom at work your way up
[09:47] <q_a_z_steve> It detects just fine, and seems to accept my key, but then asks more questions...
[09:47] <varrock> can some1 tell me how i can install windows?
[09:47] <raynerd> install windows where varrock?
[09:48] <q_a_z_steve> someone kick varrock ! Just kidding.
[09:48] <varrock> am useing ubuntu, now i want to install windows.
[09:48] <raynerd> anyone answer my question above please?
[09:48] <Rhoruns> you need to have a windows install disc. or have an ISO burned to a disc
[09:48] <p03t> varrok typically windows likes to think the hard disk its on belongs to it alone u have to install it before anything else is what most people tell me
[09:48] <raynerd> try #windows
[09:48] <tzembi> varrock: goto shop, buy license,insert cd, answer questions, problems: goto microsoft.com
[09:48] <q_a_z_steve> !apt | raynerd
[09:48] <ubotu> raynerd: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[09:48] <varrock> rhoruns:no
[09:48] <Enselic> varrock: just install it
[09:48] <Rhoruns> varrock, yes.
[09:48] <hopender> What does Ubuntu use for a firewall
[09:49] <hopender> !firewall | hopender
[09:49] <Flannel> raynerd: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[09:49] <hopender> boo
[09:49] <p03t> in the terminal how would i move a file from a folder on my desktop to the /bin dir? i dont know many commands yet and i dont have a root login
[09:49] <raynerd> is ubotu a bot?
[09:49] <Enselic> !iptables | hopender
[09:49] <ubotu> hopender: 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).
[09:49] <faileas> raynerd: yes
[09:49] <q_a_z_steve> raynerd: /msg me if you like
[09:49] <varrock> enselic:when i click on setup.exe is not opening.
[09:49] <raynerd> no no, i`m happy doing what I am doing, i just need to know if i should select anything from that menu
[09:49] <raynerd> yes please, i`m not registered can u pm me please
[09:49] <Enselic> q_a_z_steve: install Windows like you normally do
[09:49] <froglegs> help! my X server has shat itself after kernel upgrade and I can't remember the terminal commands to get X up and running again. Please help!
[09:49] <raynerd> reminds me to register!!
[09:49] <tzembi> varrock: or do you want dualboot ?
[09:50] <GarryFre> mv file /bin
[09:50] <q_a_z_steve> Enselic: I'm not installing windows, that's varrock
[09:50] <p03t> varrock open your bios and make sure that your first bootable drive is a cdrom of some sort then restart the pc with the windows install disk in the drive and boot from the cd
[09:50] <Enselic> q_a_z_steve: oops, sorry
[09:50] <varrock> no i dont want ubuntu anymore
[09:50] <Enselic> varrock: install windows as you normally do
[09:50] <tzembi> varrock: why ?
[09:50] <varrock> my windows cd is not booting
[09:50] <Enselic> varrock: do what p03t said
[09:50] <raynerd> q_a_z steve): can u pm me then i can talk? I`m not registered at present so cant initiate it
[09:50] <p03t> then you need to download a windows iso and make a new disk
[09:51] <Rhoruns> is anyone here an expert with OpenSSH? i need help configuring it.
[09:51] <Enselic> varrock: installing windows has absolutely nothing to do with #ubuntu so please continue this in #windows
[09:51] <froglegs> I have an older Nvidia card which requires the driver from Nvidia site. It is complaining that I don't have mathcing kernel headers to build the modules but I can't remember how to get them with apt-get from the terminal
[09:51] <Enselic> Rhoruns: not an expert but I know how to do basic stuff
[09:51] <Rhoruns> ah
[09:51] <Enselic> Rhoruns: but pelase just ask your qestion
[09:52] <Rhoruns> Enselic, i've installed the package through apt-get, si there anything else in particular i need to do?
[09:52] <Enselic> no point in asking if someone might know the answer to an yet unknown question in a borad subject...
[09:52] <Enselic> broad*
[09:52] <rathel> I need some help with aMule, I have High ID, but I get no sources on my downloads.
[09:52] <Rhoruns> because i want to connect to the server from Windows
[09:52] <Enselic> Rhoruns: what is your ultimate goal?
[09:52] <q_a_z_steve> Enselic: what would you do if prompted for the key to unlock the token or whatever that is?
[09:52] <p03t> i just switched to a tinyxp/ubuntu dual boot from a windows xp pro single boot and i almost never even boot to windows anymore and the funny thing is i dont know shit about linux im just lovng it its like learning to use a computer all over again
[09:52] <Enselic> Rhoruns: did yu sudo apt-get install openssh-server?
[09:52] <Rhoruns> I want to be able to control my other PC, without having to turn my head around a billion times to copy commands from goggle

[09:53] <p03t> rhoruns are yous pcs on the same physical network?
[09:53] <Rhoruns> yes, p03t
[09:53] <mycroftiv> froglegs: apt-cache search linux-headers should list all the header packages, then aptitude install the package that matches your kernel version
[09:53] <raynerd> how do I register my irc nickname?
[09:53] <Flannel> raynerd: /msg nickserv help register
[09:54] <p03t> rhoruns try using a vnc program (i prefer tightvnc) very simple to use and allows you to control any pc on your network from one of them all u need is to install the program on both pcs and set it up to allow you in
[09:54] <TomPurnell> !register
[09:54] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[09:54] <p03t> rhoruns i control my windows server via this laptop doing that
[09:54] <Rhoruns> ok. p03t, but can i install tightvnc from commandline on my other PC?
[09:54] <q_a_z_steve> p03t: Rhoruns It's not all you need...
[09:54] <Rhoruns> oh?
[09:55] <p03t> rhoruns what os is the other pc running?
[09:55] <Rhoruns> Debian
[09:55] <Rhoruns> barely anyone in #debian right now
[09:55] <p03t> sudo apt-get install xtightvncviewer
[09:55] <q_a_z_steve> your router has to allow stuff, and there can't be firewalls blocking ports 5800-5801 or 5900-5901 or whatever ports you choose
[09:56] <Rhoruns> all of my ports are open right now, q_a_z_steve
[09:56] <p03t> and sudo apt-get install tightvncserver
[09:56] <psiko_> im trying to use vnc4server , i connect from other pc and appear only a gray screen with a X pointer mouse
[09:56] <q_a_z_steve> Rhoruns: They may be, or Ubuntu may have all but this functionality blocked, as is the default
[09:56] <Rhoruns> p03t, is there any configuring i need to do? or do i just install and go?
[09:56] <p03t> dunno anything about vnc4server sorry :-/
[09:56] <tzembi> anyone have a howto on running wine as different user & disabling networking ?

[10:01] <freakylogs> my kernel is 2.6.20.16-lowlatency
[10:01] <shack> freakylogs: sudo apt-get install uname kernel-headers
[10:01] <shack> if i remember right
[10:02] <linoleum> hello, I have a question : how can I configure a different language for only 1 user?
[10:02] <jimqode> I couldn't boot my machine after the kernel update yesterday. Did anyone have the same problem?
[10:02] <psiko_> q_a_z_steve, i tried 1 and the same grey screen... ,, with 0 the connection is refused
[10:02] <hopender> !firestarter | hopender
[10:02] <marcus_> hit esc at the grub screen and try a different option
[10:03] <asc-> freakylogs: 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.20.26-lowlatency'
[10:03] <asc-> freakylogs: Or what he said. Or you can just search synaptic.
[10:03] <freakylogs> asc- i can't use synaptic.. i have a non-working x server
[10:04] <q_a_z_steve> hmm, all I can say is you don't need to do display 2, it was set up so you'd see a second monitor, if I understand correctly. check settings and confirm you are really broadcasting more than just the X layer of your chosen window manager. Perhaps select another...
[10:04] <psiko_> freakylogs, uname -r to get the kernel version
[10:04] <q_a_z_steve> just throwing stuff out there.
[10:04] <asc-> freakylogs: 'sudo aptitude search' can be used to search from the cli
[10:04] <Flannel> freakylogs: `aptitude` without any arguments will get you a GUI
[10:05] <asc-> or without the sudo, even
[10:05] <EvaLuaTe> how could i set my IP address through command line ?
[10:05] <rathel> I need some help with aMule, I have High ID, but I get no sources on my downloads.
[10:05] <jimqode> EvaLuaTe, ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.2 up
[10:05] <freakylogs> oh.. ok.. how do I navigate this 'aptitude' interface? how do I search for stuff?
[10:06] <psiko_> freakylogs, then apt-get install linux-header(+kernel version)
[10:06] <GoodHabit> EvaLuaTe, the network configuration you can edit by editing /etc/network/interfaces
[10:06] <Flannel> freakylogs: menu thing across the top.  key combinations are... either under that or along the bottom
[10:06] <EvaLuaTe> jimqode, and i replace '10.0.0.2' with my IP address ?
[10:06] <jimqode> EvaLuaTe, yes
[10:06] <psiko_> freakylogs, then apt-get install linux-headers(+kernel version)
[10:06] <Flannel> freakylogs: across the top. C-T is ctrl-T, that'll get you into the menus
[10:06] <EvaLuaTe> hmm
[10:07] <freakylogs> It tells me I already have the linux-headers installed.. I think I need kernel-source or something too.
[10:07] <EvaLuaTe> and the subnet mask and gateway ?
[10:07] <pen> ?
[10:08] <jimqode> EvaLuaTe, are you trying to set them permanently or temporarily?
[10:08] <EvaLuaTe> permanently
[10:09] <EvaLuaTe> i just switched from dinamic allocated IP address to a static one, and i have to set it or else it won't work
[10:09] <pen> hi ,how can I install Chinese input language?
[10:09] <jimqode> EvaLuaTe, then edit /etc/network/interfaces file
[10:09] <EvaLuaTe> i did set it on my router, but now i want to connect directly, without the router
[10:09] <freakylogs> um.. my sources.list must be wrong or something.. I can't find anything for 2.6.20-16 in aptitude except for the kernel images....
[10:09] <LiberCogito> Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (rev 01), on a completely new non updated install of fiesty, it is there, it can scan, it finds no networks.  Same deal with both ndiswrapper and BCMxx fwcutter.
[10:10] <EvaLuaTe> jimqode, and how do i see some syntaxes for what i should write in there ?
[10:10] <arooni> what command do i type to use a different java vm?
[10:10] <jimqode> EvaLuaTe, after editing restart networking with '/etc/init.d/networking restart'
[10:10] <EvaLuaTe> right now i got in there:
[10:10] <EvaLuaTe> auto lo
[10:10] <EvaLuaTe> iface lo inet loopback
[10:10] <EvaLuaTe> auto eth0
[10:10] <jimqode> EvaLuaTe, !paste
[10:10] <EvaLuaTe> iface eth0 inet dhcp
[10:11] <EvaLuaTe> just four lines
[10:11] <EvaLuaTe> :)
[10:11] <jimqode> EvaLuaTe, don't paste on the channel, use pastebin ok? :)
[10:11] <EvaLuaTe> ok sir
[10:11] <freakylogs> um... ok, the Nvidia graphics driver package is attempting to run now, so maybe it will work....
[10:11] <EvaLuaTe> so, where could i find some little tutorial for what i should write in that file ?
[10:12] <jimqode> EvaLuaTe, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36014/ <- here is the syntax for static ip
[10:12] <pen> hey how can I install Chinese input language?
[10:12] <jimqode> EvaLuaTe, you can always 'man interfaces' ;)
[10:12] <enry> hi i installed sampa between my ubuntu desktop and my win-laptop....instead i can perfectly seen shared data from Ubuntu...fron windows it's isist asking me "name" and "password"

[10:15] <mm_202> Is there a way to save the current directory that your in, then cd somewhere else, then go back to the original one?
[10:15] <stalwar1> hello
[10:16] <stalwar1> anyone here?
[10:16] <chalzedony> my husband managed to erase the printer drivers, it's an HP 7200 helpies?
[10:16] <mm_202> stalwar1: lol, plenty of people.
[10:16] <EvaLuaTe> jimqode, should i remove 'auto eth0', or should i leave it as it is ?
[10:16] <simplechat> hey
[10:16] <stalwar1> heh, awesome, it is 3:15 am here...
[10:16] <simplechat> whats a nice way to develop an app thats meant to run on a server?
[10:16] <mm_202> stalwar1: Same here :D
[10:16] <stalwar1> a late night reinstall of ubuntu :)
[10:16] <jimqode> EvaLuaTe, it means eth0 should be started at boot.
[10:16] <chalzedony> stalwar1, you must be west of me
[10:16] <stalwar1> anyone willing to spend some time talking to me and helping me through my ventrilo problem?
[10:17] <EvaLuaTe> ohh, ok
[10:17] <EvaLuaTe> thanks again :)
[10:17] <slimjimflim> pen, do a search for language under add/remove programs
[10:17] <slimjimflim> *applications
[10:17] <stalwar1> i love ubuntu, but i am just getting used to it.  would love for someone to help point me in the right direction
[10:17] <mm_202> stalwar1: lol, I would but have never messed with ventrilo.  But I could probably help you with other [K] Ubuntu problems.
[10:17] <chalzedony> we *may* have picked the moment when helpers are sleeping
[10:18] <stalwar1> oh
[10:18] <chalzedony> we erased the printer drivers, it's an HP 7200 helpies?
[10:18] <goodhabit_> I have upgraded my ubuntu to ubuntustudio by manual here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UpgradingFromFeisty . How I can upgrade it to Gutsy now?
[10:18] <pen> I type "Chinese" but There is no matching application available.
[10:18] <stalwar1> hehe, this is a massive "please help me right fucking now" channel, eh?
[10:18] <slimjimflim> pen type 'language'
[10:19] <tjedi> please help: after my last upgrade in feisty most of the apps in my menu-panel-bar show a error and gnome asks to delete them. when i start gnome again, there a no errors - what can i do?

[10:19] <chalzedony> tjedi, ouchies
[10:20] <pen> yeah ,I got it .but I don't know how change to Chinese
[10:20] <jimqode> Hello! after the kernel update yesterday my OS is unbootable. did anyone have the same problem?
 what do you mean?
[10:20] <slimjimflim> pen, i don't know beyond that
[10:20] <shaqiee_lee> hyyy
[10:20] <stalwar1> mm_202: i can definitely understand it.  linux is a beast when i've grown up with windows
[10:20] <lorph> can someone explain this to me, RES is supposed to be the actual physical memory a process is using right? but my memory usage is showing VIRT totals
[10:20] <slimjimflim> i really don't feel like installing it myself
[10:20] <stalwar1> people need a lot of direction when installing it for the first time/third time (in my case)
[10:22] <mm_202> stalwar1: lol, yeah, I know the feeling, I switched to all Linux a few months ago.  Still getting the hang of it.
[10:23] <jessejazza> You're not alone!! i've just got ubu running and joined this group this morning
[10:23] <shaqiee_lee> hhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[10:23] <WinXpNewb> Hello. I'm using Linux Mint. Anyways, when I installed it, I was never asked for a swap partition although I chose to install on an entire disk option. Is there still a way to make a swap partition and what exactly does the swap partition speed up? Do I really need a high amount?
[10:23] <stalwar1> jesse, lol.  a 3 AM decision to start using linux?
[10:23] <stalwar1> always awesome
[10:24] <mm_202> lol
[10:24] <m12> winxpnewb ;ask in #mint
[10:24] <stalwar1> yea, might help if you went to the right linux channel :)
[10:24] <shaqiee_lee> any see me..
[10:24] <stalwar1> sup shaq?
[10:24] <shaqiee_lee> hyyy ahirny,,...
[10:24] <WinXpNewb> m12, I already did. It's just there's usually more people here than there.
[10:24] <stalwar1> so, any of the new folks just joining ever get ventrilo to work with ubuntu?
[10:25] <m12> winxpnewb | #windows
[10:25] <m12> i mean #mint, lol
[10:25] <WinXpNewb> m12, what?
[10:25] <mm_202> stalwar1: is ventrilo the same ventrilo used for VoIP in windows gaming?
[10:25] <stalwar1> yes, mm
[10:25] <stalwar1> it's voice communication
[10:25] <m12> read channel topic winxpnewb
[10:25] <stalwar1> so far ventrilo is working on an official vent release, but haven't got there yet
[10:26] <chalzedony> WinXpNewb, freenode does actually have a really active and nice ##windows channel
[10:26] <stalwar1> so i'm using wine to try to get it to go
[10:26] <m12> does this looks like mint support channel ?
[10:26] <WinXpNewb> What about channel topic?
[10:26] <stalwar1> how do i change my nick on this server?
[10:26] <WinXpNewb> I need to go ask about Linux in a windows channel?
 how can i cure those ouchies?
[10:26] <chalzedony> politely, often helpers are away from smaller channels.. it's nice to find somewhere with people
[10:26] <m12> !windows
[10:26] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[10:27] <szf> WinXpNewb: swap is for on-disk storage of memory ; i don't know about mint install process
[10:27] <mm_202> stalwar1:   /nick newnickname
[10:27] <chalzedony> tjedi, you would ask me. i don't even know where to get printer drivers. umm when in doubt google.
[10:27] <msikma> Hey all, which file is ran whenever I log into a tty? I.e. the file that contains my settings and runs a login script and such
[10:27] <WinXpNewb> Err... no I need help for Linux Mint, not Windows.
[10:27] <q_a_z_steve> Hey, what's the command to quickly tell the dependancies of a couple given packages?
[10:27] <stalwar1> hrm, it puts a 1 when i type t
[10:27] <msikma> Because I can't seem to find it
[10:27] <stalwar1> wtf
[10:27] <m12> winxpnewb , guess what, go ask in #Mint
[10:28] <q_a_z_steve> Enselic: Hey, what's the command to quickly tell the dependancies of a couple given packages?
[10:28] <WinXpNewb> szf what does on-disk storage of memory mean in layman's terms?
[10:28] <mm_202> stalwar1: it could be your client.  IRC, freenode at least, doesnt do that.
[10:28] <slimjimflim> msikma, i'im not sure, but i think bash.rc
[10:28] <stalwrt> lol, there must be someone named stalwart
[10:28] <Enselic> q_a_z_steve: dont know on top of my head, but man dpkg to find ou
[10:29] <tzembi> anyone have a howto on running wine as different user & disabling networking ?
[10:29] <stalwartt> meh
[10:29] <Enselic> tzembi: disable networking in what sense?
[10:29] <stalwartt> i love my "stalwart" name
[10:29] <tzembi> enselic: i want to disable network access to wine
[10:29] <pen> the language support just English
[10:29] <WinXpNewb> m12, i already asked in the official Mint channel. No one's answering there right now. As for # mint. I don't think that channel exists because I'm the only one there when I try to join.
[10:29] <msikma> so... anyone know what file/script is ran whenever I log into a tty?
[10:29] <primski> WinXpNewb, spaw acts like RAM, it uses extra disk space as in ram, for better performance, usualy u set it big like 2 or 3 times bigger as your ram capacity.
[10:30] <m12> winxpnewb , read channel topic
[10:30] <szf> WinXpNewb: Linux will use (cache) as much as it can in memory - should your desktop session exhaust the total available system mom, it will start 'swap' ping to disk
[10:30] <Enselic> tzembi: to run as a different user, look into sudo or su   I don't know how to disable networking for a specific app, sorry
[10:30] <szf> s/mom/mem/
[10:30] <Enselic> tzembi: but for the whole system, do  sudo ifconfig <interface> down
[10:30] <WinXpNewb> m12, what about channel topic?
[10:30] <Enselic> tzembi: or sudo ifdown <interface>  or  with ifup
[10:30] <mm_202> lol
[10:30] <tzembi> enselic: thank you, do you know how to disable networking just for one user ?
[10:30] <m12> WinXpNewb: can you understand it =?
[10:30] <mm_202> wow, a channel this large and not a single op for kicking? :)
[10:31] <WinXpNewb> What's there to understand m12?
[10:31] <Rhoruns> lol
[10:31] <m12> LFMAO
[10:31] <m12> WinXpNewb: > !windows
[10:31] <Enselic> tzembi: no sorry, but ppl in #linux have a better chance of knowing this
[10:31] <Enselic> ##linux  I mean
[10:31] <Rhoruns> i think the bot turns into an ultra op when someone floods or something and then kicks them :P
[10:31] <tzembi> enselic: thanks
[10:32] <WinXpNewb> m12, I'm not asking about windows
[10:32] <MarkC> hi. im playing this game called GearHead, and I plan to play it on a realy terminal, not x terminals or the like. The problem is this game requires bold texts to function properly, so how do I enable bold texts on the normal bash terminal?
[10:32] <Enselic> tzembi: try Ens<TAB> in your IRC client btw ;)
[10:32] <m12> WinXpNewb: u still dont realize u are in FU"$"$" wrong channel =?
[10:32] <WinXpNewb> How am I in the wrong channel m12?
[10:33] <m12> WinXpNewb:  does this looks like Linux Mint chanel ?
[10:33] <tzembi> enselic: what does it do ?
[10:33] <Enselic> tzembi: it autocmpletes Enselic for you
[10:33] <glick> 
[10:33] <WinXpNewb> m12, I already told you. There's less people on Linux Mint channel so I also ask here.
[10:33] <Enselic> so you don't have to write my full nick all the time. it's pretty convenient
[10:33] <tzembi> Enselic: ah greta, thanks
[10:34] <tzembi> Enselic: *great*
[10:34] <m12> WinXpNewb, install ubuntu then come ask for help here m8
[10:34] <Enselic> WinXpNewb: um, sorry but you're reasoning makes no sense, please stick to Ubuntu questions in here
[10:34] <tjedi> on boot sequence sensor-limits failed - what can i do?
[10:35] <szf> isn't mint based on ubuntu?
[10:35] <WinXpNewb> m12, from what I understand, Mint is basically Ubuntu so they both are nearly similar. I already asked several times here before and I didn't have any trouble from others. What's up?
[10:36] <m12> WinXpNewb, install ubuntu then come ask for help here m8
[10:36] <primski> WinXpNewb, instead of bitching here, u could use google, 99% of ur problems can be solved by searching a little.
[10:36] <chalzedony> WinXpNewb, i apologise for all the stuck up linux geeks, my son is one.. he's not user-friendly
[10:36] <stalwartt> i'll paypal someone 10 bucks if they can get my ventrilo client to work on ubuntu
[10:37] <WinXpNewb> Oh ok. Thanks for clarifying chalzedony. I guess that's to be expected in a community as large as Ubuntu.
[10:37] <chalzedony> most of the people are nice as can be and really do help
[10:38] <_cerberus_> WinXpNewb, I think it has something to do with the time, I'm not used to seeing so many unfriendly people on this channel. ml2 is being especially annoying.
[10:38] <jimqode> WinXpNewb, what is your problem?
[10:38] <m12> ye, i apologize, too much online this evening
[10:38] <WinXpNewb> Ok, well someone in the Linux Mint channel told me to use gparted so i'll try seeing if I can find more about that.
[10:38] <m12> i mean morning
[10:38] <chalzedony> ty m12 :)
[10:38] <mycroftiv> winxpnewb: cat /etc/fstab shows what partitions are in use, if your install created a swap partition it would be listed there.
[10:38] <WinXpNewb> ok, thanks.
[10:38] <m12> still didnt have morning coffe :/
[10:39] <szf> WinXpNewb: cat /etc/fstab | grep swap has anything?
[10:39] <m12> ty m8
[10:39] <chalzedony> yw :)
[10:39] <WinXpNewb> I got this:  cat /etc/fstab | grep swap
[10:39] <CompJunki> why does everyone that runs ubuntu have problems with hanging or locking up ????
[10:39] <WinXpNewb> UUID=042ff7a5-b678-4546-a321-60dfd42c2703 none swap sw 0 0
[10:39] <CompJunki> with desktop effects enabled or disabled
[10:40] <CompJunki> you need to sort that out.
[10:40] <szf> you have a swap partition then
[10:40] <CompJunki> i do ?
[10:40] <CompJunki> everyone has a swap partiton
[10:40] <west_> does ubuntu server have an interface?
[10:40] <mycroftiv> winxpnewb: your installation automatically created and setup a swap partition for you, assuming you dont have some kind of awful hard drive space crunch you should be fine with its defaults
[10:40] <gordonjcp> CompJunki: I don't have problems with ubuntu hanging or locking up
[10:40] <rdvon> node.net
[10:40] <WinXpNewb> Ok, thanks.
[10:40] <CompJunki> gordonjcp:  do a search
[10:40] <_cerberus_> west, not a graphical interface
[10:40] <CompJunki> problems
[10:40] <CompJunki> with pcs' with other users
[10:41] <CompJunki> experiances
[10:41] <CompJunki> i have
[10:41] <gordonjcp> CompJunki: maybe they should run something like memtest86
[10:41] <west_> _cerberus_ can i install a graphical interface on ubuntu server?
[10:41] <CompJunki> i still have problems
[10:41] <CompJunki> keeeps locking up
[10:41] <CompJunki> on a due
[10:41] <_cerberus_> west_, of course.
[10:41] <m12> west_ ; apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[10:41] <CompJunki> been using computers for 13 years
[10:41] <cyberphaz> newbie
[10:41] <chalzedony> my husband's computer seems to have lost it's drivers for the hp 7200 printer... just vanished! can anyone point me to what to do about it?
[10:41] <cyberphaz> :P
[10:42] <szf> gparted culd tell you 'where' and 'how much' of a swat there is - the common amount is 1- 2x physical memory
[10:42] <CompJunki> and i haven't understand yet why it keeps locking up, ive tried replacing the memory and stuff
[10:42] <CompJunki> and nothing still works.
[10:42] <szf> s/swat/sap/
[10:42] <Fructose> How do I get audio recording to work in Ubuntu?
[10:42] <_cerberus_> west_, what ml2 suggest will work but will also install a lot of other software. Why are you using server?
[10:42] <chalzedony> Fructose, audacity ?
[10:42] <m12> compjunki, checked logs ?
[10:43] <decay> i can't find where python is installed. anyone know? (linux)
[10:43] <Fructose> chalzedony: It doesn't capture anything from my mic
[10:43] <west_> _cerberus_, i want to use my pc as a hosting server for my domain
[10:43] <CompJunki> m12: nothing
[10:43] <mycroftiv> chalzedony: when you say lost its drivers, perhaps a needed kernel module is no longer being loaded?
[10:43] <m12> compjunki , memtest ?
[10:43] <chalzedony> mycroftiv,  hmm how do i get it back?
[10:43] <CompJunki> m12:  its another set of memory sticks
[10:43] <CompJunki> m12:  still the same.
[10:43] <budl8year> hi all
[10:44] <m12> compjunki , treid safe mode ?
[10:44] <WinXpNewb> Ok, thanks szf. It says I have 2.89 gb.
[10:44] <CompJunki> whats safe mode,  thts at boot up innit?
[10:44] <m12> yes compjunki
[10:44] <CompJunki> haha
[10:44] <CompJunki> yea
[10:44] <CompJunki> i did that today
[10:44] <m12> same ?
[10:44] <CompJunki> while installing
[10:44] <CompJunki> i dunno
[10:44] <CompJunki> im waiting
[10:44] <CompJunki> :D
[10:44] <m12> try safe mode
[10:44] <CompJunki> its in safe mode.
[10:45] <CompJunki> i think
[10:45] <szf> so your system memory is likely 1.5 GB?
[10:45] <budlightyear> goodness, so many talking bots here? :(
[10:45] <CompJunki> the menu at the start of installing you mean ?
[10:45] <m12> compjunki did u start in safe mode ?
[10:45] <m12> no
[10:45] <_cerberus_> west_, the main reason for installing server is that it does away with the gui and other non esentials making the system faster and more reliable. You can run apache on the normal ubuntu and it is a lot easier if you're not hosting a critical site.
[10:45] <mycroftiv> chalzedony: well, if it is a 'simple' module problem you might be able to fix it with depmod and modprobe, but you probably need a bit more debugging to figure out whats going on, if the symptom is just 'no longer prints' it might have several causes
[10:45] <CompJunki> i did that m12
[10:45] <m12> at grub option
[10:45] <m12> not on install
[10:45] <CompJunki> i dont know how to get into safe mode.
[10:45] <msikma> Hi, is there any way to start GDM and log in a user without actually using a physical display?
[10:45] <CompJunki> m12:  ok why would i need to do that?
[10:45] <m12> when u boot up PC , press "esc" when u see countdown
[10:45] <WinXpNewb> szf, I thought I had 1gb ram. Should it be a problem if it's set like that?
[10:46] <m12> compjunki to locate driver/system problem maybe ?
[10:46] <CompJunki> CompJunki:  how would i do that
[10:46] <_cerberus_> west_, You could do like I've done on my music box and install server then fluxbox or other small window manager if you're really not comfortable with command line.
[10:46] <CompJunki> m12:  im kinda new to linux
[10:46] <szf> WinXpNewb:  no, a little aggressive on space, but no problem
[10:46] <m12> i just write u above
[10:47] <CompJunki> m12:  old skool on windows
[10:47] <CompJunki> lkol
[10:47] <msikma> Whenever I log into GDM, the remote desktop service is started. I want it to start while operating the machine remotely.
[10:47] <m12> compjunki : m12: when u boot up PC , press "esc" when u see countdown
[10:47] <west_> _cerberus_ thanks
[10:47] <CompJunki> ok
[10:47] <msikma> Anybody got a clue as to how I could do this?
[10:47] <CompJunki> what would that do ?
[10:47] <WinXpNewb> szf, ok. Again thanks everyone.
[10:47] <Flannel> !startup | CompJunki
[10:47] <ubotu> CompJunki: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[10:47] <Flannel> CompJunki: and, you can make a user login automatically from the login screen setup menu entry
[10:48] <CompJunki> ??
[10:48] <CompJunki> Flannel:  thats not what we were talking about
[10:48] <CompJunki> hehe
[10:48] <CompJunki> i have lock up troubles

[10:49] <Flannel> !enter | CompJunki
[10:49] <ubotu> CompJunki: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:49] <goon> does anybody know in witch directory linux fonts is?
[10:49] <CompJunki> sorry its a habbit
[10:49] <msikma> Flannel: I guess that one was directed at me, about the boot?
[10:49] <CompJunki> and thats kinda raicest
[10:49] <Flannel> msikma: Hmmm.  Yeah, I guess so.  Gah, maybe I ought to get some sleep.
[10:50] <msikma> Flannel: I don't really get it, though, "login screen setup menu entry"?
[10:50] <stalwartt> sooooo
[10:50] <Flannel> msikma: system > admin > login screen setup
[10:50] <stalwartt> anyone new join yet that knows how to get ventrilo to work with ubuntu?
[10:50] <msikma> Flannel: ah, interesting
[10:50] <msikma> I'll go check it out, many thanks
[10:51] <CompJunki> ubuntu rules Flannel but i have been messing about with it for ages and it just locks up time to time i cant manage to keep a stable uptime for 1 day even
[10:51] <chalzedony> mycroftiv, or anyone, the symptom is that you click on print and there is NOTHING in the printer window. used to show both printers, but the one we need is the hp 7200
[10:52] <shellhack> hello everybody
[10:52] <chalzedony> hi shellhack
[10:52] <shellhack> chalzedony: hi
[10:52] <chalzedony> :)
[10:53] <mycroftiv> Chalzedony: did this start along with an upgrade to the kernel, or any other configuration or hardware change you know of?
[10:53] <shellhack> I want to know if I can download .php.pgn files from a web with wget
[10:53] <shellhack> I tried but I dont know what Im doing wrong
[10:53] <szf> chalzedony: which cups do you have? which ubuntu?
[10:53] <chalzedony> mycroftiv, my husband can't speak or hear, he expresses that he looked up and it was gone! ..
[10:54] <chalzedony> szf, it's ubuntu feisty
[10:54] <szf> System -> Administration -> Printing has a configuration?
[10:55] <carl> Hi, I've got a majoro problemo over here.. A couple of days ago I decided to install the xubuntu-desktop metapackage from the repos, but after reboot gnome just throws a lot of errors about trying to change non-writable files, and I also get the same with gnome-based programs from xfce. Xfce works alright, but I just wanted to play a little with it, not get stuck with it :s Can anyone help me to get my system back on track again?
[10:57] <szf> ... I thought that HP had cleaned up  their Linux act and things were/are much better now than they used to be
[10:57] <kahrytan> hello
[10:57] <CompJunki> m12:  it well could be my gfx card
[10:58] <CompJunki> i got onboard gfx
[10:58] <CompJunki> also
[10:58] <m12> compjunki, which one ?
[10:59] <szf> btw, is there a CLI command that will echo which ubuntu version your using?
[11:00] <shellhack> hello I want to download all png files from www.ferz.be web pages
[11:00] <CompJunki> m12:  im using a express card
[11:00] <shellhack> web page
[11:00] <kahrytan> szf, Why? System > About Ubuntu isnt enough
[11:01] <szf> kahrytan: i was wondering about an equiv to uname -a
[11:02] <thedash> I installed Winamp via Wine, and immediately after installing, all audio [even in other players]  is flat and low, anybody know why ?
[11:02] <thedash> uninstalling has no effect, neither does restarting alsa or anything like that
[11:02] <boogie> winamp in wine o.O
[11:03] <_cerberus_> you've got to ask why winamp in wine when there is xmms
[11:03] <boogie> or audacious or beep
[11:03] <thedash> well, winamp5 != winamp2, that's basically it
[11:03] <_cerberus_> I mentioned xmms because it's a winamp clone
[11:04] <Canol> that is a good reason :)
[11:04] <gordonjcp> yeah
[11:04] <thedash> yeh, xmms is a winamp2 clone, as I recall
[11:04] <gordonjcp> beep is an xmms clone, that uses gtk2
[11:04] <thedash> and audacious is a beep clone, yes I know
[11:04] <gordonjcp> running winamp in wine seems like a total waste of time tbh
[11:04] <thedash> apparently it was worse, as it broke something
[11:05] <spikeb> running anything resembling winamp, or winamp itself, seems to be a waste of time to me ;)
[11:05] <thedash> guess I'm weird for liking Winamp
[11:05] <_cerberus_> not for liking winamp, just going through such extremes to get it.
[11:05] <ivx> hey does anyone know of any photo organizer applications that are better than fspot? I like the way the new iPhoto does things but hey i have ubuntu
[11:05] <radek> hi everybody, may I ask you about pinning under ubuntu?
[11:05] <gordonjcp> thedash: it just seems a bit pointless, and a waste of effort and indeed CPU cycles
[11:06] <_cerberus_> I would assume that for some reason the mixer settings were adjusted but can't understand why they wouldn't revert when the next audio app opens.
[11:07] <shellhack> exit
[11:07] <gordonjcp> wow, that's really nearly all of turkey ip banned
[11:07] <_cerberus_> weird
[11:07] <gordonjcp> well, assuming they're d-lining netblocks rather than IPs
[11:08] <_cerberus_> but why?
[11:08] <carl> probably some attack
[11:09] <Canol> From what banned the Turkey IPs?
[11:09] <_cerberus_> does anyone know what the gnome package is called of the top of their heads?
[11:09] <carl> _cerberus_: gnome :)
[11:10] <carl> apt-cache search gnome
[11:10] <_cerberus_> I would have thought so but apparently I don't have a package named gnome installed
[11:10] <sauvin> How do you arrive at this conjecture?
[11:10] <_cerberus_> apt-get remove gnome says gnome is not installed so not removed
[11:11] <carl> _cerberus_: it might be something like ubuntu
[11:11] <gordonjcp> _cerberus_: dpkg -l gnome-*
[11:11] <_cerberus_> seems promising, I'll give it a go
[11:11] <thedash> any ideas on how to [jump/re] start my audio ?
[11:11] <tarntow> what would be the reason that an installed program is not able to run?..thx
[11:13] <wira> rY4nZz
[11:13] <alex_> hi
[11:13] <alex_> does anybody know how to change a network adaptor from eth1 to eth0?
[11:14] <_cerberus_> there are hundreds! surely they're lumped under a meta package
[11:14] <alex_> I changed my NIC and its broken DNS masq.. figured changing it back to eth0 where my old apator used to be might solve the problem
[11:14] <filthpig> _cerberus_: try gnome-desktop
[11:14] <Flannel> _cerberus_: you mean ubuntu-desktop?
[11:15] <filthpig> $ sudo apt-cache search ubuntu-desktop
[11:15] <filthpig> Password:
[11:15] <filthpig> edubuntu-desktop - edubuntu desktop system
[11:15] <filthpig> kubuntu-desktop - Kubuntu desktop system
[11:15] <filthpig> ubuntu-desktop - The Ubuntu desktop system
[11:15] <filthpig> xubuntu-desktop - Xubuntu desktop system
[11:15] <b14ck> what package do i need to install sshd and get it running?
[11:16] <_cerberus_> I don't want to remove ubuntu-desktop because it includes X amoungst other things
[11:16] <Flannel> b14ck: openssh-server
[11:16] <filthpig> it was probably a typo from my side the last time i tried ;)
[11:16] <_cerberus_> someone mentioned libgnome-2.0
[11:16] <b14ck> Flannel: will it auto start it for me?
[11:16] <Flannel> _cerberus_: ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage.  What are you trying to accomplish ultimately?
[11:16] <Flannel> b14ck: yep
[11:16] <b14ck> ty
[11:17] <_cerberus_> I want a system which runs fluxbox. I would like to free up the space used by gnome as I don't use it because it's too slow on the old computer I'm using.
[11:18] <_cerberus_> I've installed fluxbox and it's working admirably
[11:19] <Flannel> _cerberus_: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde follow those instructions on removing gnome
[11:19] <simplechat> hey
[11:20] <simplechat> i'm having a small problem with smb sharing
[11:20] <skcs1985> can anyone help me on ad-hoc command?
[11:20] <simplechat> i can create files as root (who mounted it)
[11:20] <simplechat> but i can't create files as my regular user
[11:20] <skcs1985> can anyone help me on ad-hoc command for ubuntu?
[11:20] <simplechat> i've tried chmoding the directory, but even at chmod /serv 777 it still doesn't worok
[11:20] <sauvin> skcs1985, like whatA/
[11:20] <simplechat> and chown gives me a lack of permission error
[11:20] <sauvin> Wow...bad typing, sorry.
[11:21] <tzembi> simplechat: hows the error message ?
[11:21] <sauvin> simplechat, chown is often run by root.
[11:21] <simplechat> i am root
[11:21] <simplechat> when running chown
[11:21] <sauvin> skcs1985, what's the ad-hoc?
[11:21] <simplechat> chown: changing ownership of `/serv': Operation not permitted
[11:21] <skcs1985> ok i type iwconfig eth1 ad-hoc
[11:21] <praveer_fedora> why dont the arrow keys work well in vi editor as it would normally work, i get A when i press UP arrow key, B when DOWN, ...
[11:22] <b14ck> What is a really good HTML editor?
[11:22] <skcs1985> after that how do i connect 2 laptops with ad-hoc?
[11:22] <simplechat> char /serv is a symbolic link for /mnt which is the mountpoint
[11:22] <skcs1985> i set both laptops on ad-hoc
[11:22] <praveer_fedora> and i dont get INSERT when i press 'i' in vi
[11:22] <tzembi> simplechat: what command are you trying ?
[11:22] <m12> b14ck ; gedit
[11:22] <filthpig> praveer_fedora: might be something with keyboard layouts
[11:22] <skcs1985> but they cant detect each other
[11:22] <b14ck> m12, im looking for more of an IDE kind of thing
[11:22] <simplechat> touch, mv, etc. i have only read permission as a normal user
[11:22] <filthpig> praveer_fedora:  use vim then ;)
[11:22] <b14ck> m12, any ideas?
[11:22] <simplechat> but as root i have full permissions
[11:23] <simplechat> (minus chown)
[11:23] <m12> b14ck: bluefish
[11:23] <sauvin> I had similar trouble with midnight command and wound up having to reset terminal type, iirc.
[11:23] <b14ck> m12, oo ty
[11:23] <b14ck> m12, i'll give it a try
[11:23] <praveer_fedora> filthpig, will try and tell u rsult
[11:23] <simplechat> tzembi, and i'd like to get it running as normal user
[11:23] <praveer_fedora> filthpig, thank you, i thought vi was sym linked to vim
[11:23] <praveer_fedora> filthpig, now everything works fine
[11:24] <skcs1985> iirc?
[11:24] <alex_> can anybody tell me how I change my network card from eth1 to eth0?
[11:24] <filthpig> praveer_fedora: great :)
[11:25] <tzembi> simplechat: what does ls -la /bin/cho* show ?
[11:25] <simplechat> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 35480 2007-03-05 17:25 /bin/chown
[11:26] <tzembi> simplechat: an you are doing "chown simplechat /serv" ?
[11:26] <_cerberus_> Flannel, a list of all packages relating to gnome. Ugly but it'll work. Thanks
[11:26] <simplechat> chown node /serv
[11:26] <simplechat> yes
[11:26] <simplechat> (node is a regular user)
[11:27] <skcs1985> anyone can help me on ad-hoc mode?
[11:28] <tzembi> simplechat: what does "ls -la /serv" show ?
[11:28] <simplechat> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2007-09-02 17:25 /serv -> /mnt
[11:29] <tzembi> simplechat: did you try recursive ?
[11:29] <simplechat> ?
[11:30] <tzembi> simplechat: did you try recursive ? all file in the directory... "chmod 777 -R /serv"
[11:30] <mcp_> Hi, everytime i install a kernel update /boot/grub/menu.lst gets regenerated. Now, I want my kernels get the parameter root=/dev/sda3 instead of root=UUID=123-4123-432432-4324-342. Where do i have to change that. (everything was better in the good old times)
[11:31] <simplechat> didn't work
[11:31] <simplechat> it executed without any errors
[11:31] <simplechat> it just didn't work
[11:32] <simplechat> hence, problem
[11:32] <skcs1985> anyone can help me on ad-hoc mode?
[11:33] <tzembi> simplechat: but you can change owner to user ? "chown <username> -R /serv"
[11:33] <mcp_> /dev/sda3 vs UUID. anyone?
[11:33] <simplechat> now chowned
[11:33] <skcs1985> after setting 2 laptops to ad-hoc mode
[11:33] <simplechat> same error
[11:33] <simplechat> permission denied
[11:33] <skcs1985> how can i communicate them to each other
[11:34] <tzembi> simplechat: what paermissions has the stuff in /mnt now ?
[11:35] <simplechat> drwxr-xr-x  1 root root 4096 2007-09-02 18:40 .
[11:35] <simplechat> and as root
[11:35] <tzembi> simplechat:  it didnt follow symlink... try doing stuff on /mnt
[11:36] <simplechat> i can't change the permissions of /mnt
[11:36] <simplechat> i'm getting access denied errors
[11:36] <simplechat> which is a really really wierd problem
[11:36] <tzembi> simplechat: what kind of filesystem is it ?
[11:36] <simplechat> smb
[11:36] <simplechat> i've set up a smb server on another comcputer
[11:37] <simplechat> and this is connecting to it
[11:37] <simplechat> its connecting with a fairly standard command
[11:37] <tzembi> simplechat: you are not root on the other computer, hence you have no permissions there :)
[11:37] <simplechat> so i need to change it on the other computer?
[11:38] <szf> list by UUID:  ls /dev/disk/by-uuid -lh
[11:38] <simplechat> everything is owned by node on the other computer hto
[11:39] <szf> dunno about HDD labels tho
[11:40] <simplechat> tzembi, i need to change my config settings?
[11:40] <tzembi> simplechat: i think so ... just looking on the samba wiki...
[11:40] <simplechat> samba wiki?
[11:41] <tzembi> simplechat: http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Main_Page
[11:41] <chalzedony> We found the drivers in System Administration Printers and i *thinik* we got it to see the printer.. it prints test pages. BUT it's not printing from OpenOffice.. it says "Printer Error" .
[11:41] <simplechat> k
[11:41] <chalzedony> Functions Print is BLANK
[11:41] <alex_> does anybody have any idea why changing my network card would break DNS Masq?
[11:42] <chalzedony> aleX_ dns is going to be a function of the card.
[11:42] <tzembi> simplechat: you did mount smb share with username/pasword ?
[11:42] <simplechat> yes
[11:42] <simplechat> i've edited it
[11:42] <simplechat> i'm connecting to my home directory
[11:42] <tzembi> simplechat: and user has rights to modify/create stuff ?
[11:42] <simplechat> which isn't read only
[11:42] <simplechat> yes
[11:43] <alex_> surely I can use another card with it though?
[11:43] <simplechat> hence why root can
[11:43] <simplechat> root can make files, etc.
[11:43] <picca> does ubuntu use suspend2 by default?

[11:47] <tzembi> simplechat: change stuff to user an remount
[11:48] <simplechat> on the server?
[11:48] <tzembi> simplechat: change stuff to user an remount as user

[11:48] <hammafm82> hi, this is my first run of ubuntu
[11:48] <chalzedony> hammafm82, welcome to the club
[11:49] <tzembi> simplechat:  smbmount <as serverroot> > change permissions > umount > smbmount <asuser>
[11:49] <hammafm82> chalzedony, thanx
[11:49] <hammafm82> how can i run the console
[11:49] <simplechat> so on the server itself, i mount?
[11:49] <hammafm82> ?
[11:49] <tzembi> simplechat: no on the client
[11:49] <simplechat> ok
[11:50] <simplechat> i've already mounted it as server root
[11:50] <picca> does ubuntu use suspend2 by default or does it use the suspend that comes with the kernel
[11:50] <simplechat> but work it does not
[11:50] <szf> alt+F2 -> gnome-terminal
[11:50] <chalzedony> hammafm82, click on the black box on the top bar. .. consoles
[11:50] <simplechat> i have to go for a second, dinner
[11:50] <tarelerulz> mcp I don't want to turn it off I just want it low
[11:50] <madera> Why isn't Maven on the Ubuntu repository?
[11:51] <hammafm82> thx chazedony :-)
[11:51] <tzembi> Enselic: i tried that stuff with using wine as another user, but it seems i cant restrict network access. do you know the network group in ubunt ?
[11:51] <szf> ...working alternate (here) alt+F2 -> xterm
[11:52] <predaeus> tarelerulz, what he/she meant is that an alsa script is run when you shutdown your computer. that script saves the current volume settings.
[11:52] <mcp_> tarelerulz, just the shutdown part. Turn the settings as you want them, then call "alsactl store <card #>.
[11:53] <Enselic> tzembi: searched for it, but didn't find one, so sadly it appears as if there was no such group :(
[11:53] <chalzedony> does anyone know how Functions> Print is supposed to look and how you get it that way?
[11:54] <mcp_> tarelerulz, otherwis you could try to use alsactl with the -f option. Save you settings somewhere else (not the default location), and restore them on bootup.
[11:54] <tzembi> Enselic: thats a pity, i think ill try apparmor then :) hope its not tooo much of a harrassment ...
[11:55] <tarelerulz> what if I setting the volume to really low right now and then told it to save those settings
[11:55] <tarelerulz> Would that work
[11:55] <glick> chalzedony, what are you talking about?
[11:55] <tarelerulz> So everytime I start the computer it would read that
[11:55] <tarelerulz> I don't remember telling ubuntu to auto save my settings
[11:56] <predaeus> tarelerulz, it does it by default.
[11:56] <mcp_> tarelerulz, you dont have to, it simply does
[11:56] <azzmodan> kinjo, you oculd just diable the onboard card in your bios if yuo don't need it
[11:56] <chalzedony> glick, somehow the printer drivers dissapeared from my husband's feisty box. instead of saying it was low on ink there were no printers listed.  .. we found how to get them back in Settings > administration > printers and it printed a test page
[11:56] <chalzedony> but
[11:57] <kinjo> azzmodan, hmm my mobo is old and i dont think it allows me to do that
[11:57] <Jowi> tarelerulz, if all else fail you can make /var/lib/alsa/asound.state readonly.
[11:57] <chalzedony> glick, it does not print from OpenOffice.. it says "Printer Error" and the Functionis Print is empty
[11:57] <azzmodan> I've never seen a motherboard that doesn't let you disable the onboard sound, it'll probably be listed as "ac97" or something
[11:58] <glick> hmm sounds like buggy drivers for your printer chalzedony
[11:58] <chalzedony> glick the thing worked great.. until now
[11:58] <chalzedony> so .. glick  how to fix?
[11:59] <glick> chalzedony, well, resupply the ink, and reload your printer?
[11:59] <glick> does that work?
[11:59] <szf> chalzedony: was an OO update pushed recently?
[11:59] <chalzedony> glick, no
[11:59] <szf> is it OO or cups?
[11:59] <mcp_> tarelerulz, if youd edit /etc/init.d/alsa-utils, in the stop-part youll find "store_levels "$TARGET_CARD" || EXITSTATUS=1".  Putting a # infront of that line should also work
[11:59] <glick> hmm that is strange indeed
[12:00] <chalzedony> szf, it's cups oo is just an end problem
[12:00] <szf> ..IIRC for a while OO print x count of page never worked, for example
[12:00] <mcp_> tarelerulz, forget what i wrot, just do as Jowi said.
[12:00] <szf> hrrm
[12:00] <ibob63> I am trying to install on computer with hardware raid 1. For some reason ubuntu can see only one disk on the Gnome Partition and two disks on the installation. What should I do?
[12:01] <szf> i may be sticking with my on-again/off-again epson
[12:01] <chalzedony> szf hmm maybe we should try printing from firefox?  or is it .. because that page should not be blank i think
[12:01] <szf> i dont think i can help chalezony
[12:01] <tarelerulz> I really need to bone up on my command line action . I don't evern really now how to change the permession
[12:02] <Jowi> !permissions | tarelerulz
[12:02] <ubotu> tarelerulz: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[12:02] <tzembi> tarelerulz: man chmod, man chown, man chgrp
[12:02] <Mthed> what is the command to run a exe file in the ubuntu shell?
[12:02] <tzembi> Mthed: man wine
[12:02] <glick> tzembi, umm a windows exe file?
[12:03] <Mthed> yes
[12:03] <szf> run a exe file?!?!
[12:03] <Mthed> :)
[12:03] <tzembi> glick: you see docs on running windows exes in wine....
[12:03] <Mthed> i'm trying to get eve-online working on ubuntu
[12:03] <szf> is it from a Mono compile?
[12:03] <glick> oh
[12:04] <tzembi> Mthed: http://www.holarse-linuxgaming.de/h2006/space/EVE+Online
[12:04] <thedash> what does aclocal do ?
[12:04] <Jowi> tarelerulz, there's actually some other possibilities for you. removing /etc/rc0.d/K19aumix would probably achieve the same result.
[12:04] <Mthed> tzembi: I don't speak germany.
[12:05] <tzembi> Mthed: try google translation or other translate service
[12:05] <tzembi> Mthed: but looking to get you another site :)
[12:05] <tzembi> Mthed: one moment :)
[12:05] <tarelerulz> I don't understand  is there file that just tells the defalt setting for the sound manager then  a file for the saved sesion setting that change everytime
[12:05] <Mthed> don't bother, i have plenty of sites to look through.
[12:05] <szf> Jowi ".. removing /etc/rc0.d/K19aumix would probably achieve the same result." i would recommend renaming over removing
[12:06] <N3oXid> Hi everyone.
[12:06] <Jowi> szf, can always get them back with "sudo update-rc.d aumix defaults"
[12:07] <szf> nice to know

[12:10] <Hadeshorn> Hey I have done something stupid and need some help fixing it! :)
[12:10] <Hadeshorn> I have been trying to get my USB DWL-122 to work
[12:10] <sauvin> Hadeshorn, we'd feared something substantially to such effect.
[12:10] <Hadeshorn> and was playing with the WPA
[12:10] <simplechat> tzembi, or what?
[12:11] <Hadeshorn> and i wiped all the information in /etc/network/interfaces
[12:11] <Hadeshorn> and now i cant edit the file and put stuff back in there
[12:11] <Hadeshorn> btw im using my winxp system right now
[12:11] <tzembi> simplechat: yes try mounting as root and changing stuff
[12:11] <Hadeshorn> i havent figured out how to install irc onto ubuntu
[12:11] <N3oXid> Anyone to help me with my sata raid controler card ?
[12:11] <simplechat> the server user root? or local root?
[12:11] <sauvin> Hadeshorn, sudo apt-get install xchat
[12:11] <m12> gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces - hadeshorn
[12:11] <tzembi> simplechat: server user
[12:11] <oranye> indonesia
[12:12] <m12> hadeshorn, gaim works pretty well with irc
[12:12] <Hadeshorn> M12: That doesnt work, it just hangs
[12:12] <simplechat> oktanouc, so i mount with username=root
[12:12] <Hadeshorn> Sauvin: Thanks! M12 as well
[12:12] <UnknownUniverse> Requesting application that can burn avi to DVD disc (That I can play with my dvd in the living room)
[12:12] <Hadeshorn> let me try that.. my fingers are feeling dirty using windows
[12:12] <simplechat> tzembi, so i mount with username=root. what password tho? (i never made a user called root for smb)
[12:12] <tarelerulz> Well, I made my alsa sound status file read only with the sound at low . Then I changed it to up high then reboot and it was at high
[12:13] <tarelerulz> I put the sound bar up high I did not manualy edit the file
[12:13] <tarelerulz> It started high
[12:14] <tzembi> simplechat: i think you need a user with rights to change permissions on the server ... dunno
[12:14] <simplechat> oktanouc, can i give it to myself how?
[12:14] <simplechat> through changing the smb config file?
[12:14] <tzembi> simplechat: i think so
[12:15] <tzembi> simplechat: sorry but i dont have an smb server here, so its a little bit of guessing involved :)
[12:15] <simplechat> yeah, this is wierd
[12:15] <simplechat> ok
[12:15] <savvas> I've upgraded to the new kernel and I've noticed the nvidia driver wasn't updated for the new kernel
[12:15] <simplechat> :)
[12:15] <simplechat> i just want to get this fixed soon
[12:15] <Hadeshorn> Hello again party people
[12:15] <simplechat> i have my smb.conf open
[12:15] <joakim> hi Hadeshorn
[12:16] <Hadeshorn> Ok so back to the /etc/networks/interfaces

[12:16] <Hadeshorn> how do i login as root?
[12:16] <m12> sudo su

[12:22] <JRDezine> lol gl Hadster
[12:22] <simplechat> oh, no
[12:22] <simplechat> cd /serv causes my node to hang now

[12:23] <etnoy> I have run into a strange problem with gutsy. I can no longer select hibernate in the shutdown dialog.
[12:23] <simplechat> tzembi, big problem!
[12:23] <etnoy> hibernate has just disappeared
[12:23] <simplechat> i'm now in /mnt
[12:23] <etnoy> gconf says can_hibernate true
[12:23] <simplechat> i'm lsing
[12:23] <brownie17> can anyone tell me what the command is to open a bash terminal window?
[12:23] <simplechat> but it isn't working
[12:23] <simplechat> input/output error
[12:23] <tzembi> simplechat: you restarted smb server ?
[12:23] <brownie17> i'm trying to assign a keyboard shortcut in XFCE
[12:23] <simplechat> i restarted both computers
[12:24] <simplechat> it works on my windows comp (logged in as another user)
[12:24] <tzembi> simplechat: try mounting again
[12:24] <Paddy_EIRE> etnoy, #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:24] <simplechat> ah
[12:24] <Paddy_EIRE> eteran, oops.. #ubuntu+1
[12:24] <simplechat> oktanouc, i see the problem
[12:24] <etnoy> Paddy_EIRE: okay, is that offtopic? I just don't see how...
[12:24] <simplechat> \\ubuntu\mount doesn't exist
[12:24] <simplechat> for some reason
[12:24] <Paddy_EIRE> oops
[12:24] <simplechat> \\ubuntu\node
[12:24] <Paddy_EIRE> etnoy, #ubuntu+1
[12:25] <brownie17> Paddy_EIRE, not having much luck today
[12:25] <Paddy_EIRE> nope
[12:25] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[12:25] <etnoy> okay, now I see :)
[12:25] <etnoy> lol
[12:26] <simplechat> oktanouc, i'm remounting now
[12:26] <mapp> what is up?
[12:26] <simplechat> whats with the oktanouc?
[12:26] <simplechat> not my server, apparently
[12:26] <brownie17> does anyone know what the command to run a terminal window is?
[12:26] <Thunor> Hey does anyone know of any GTK SCP programs?
[12:26] <simplechat> i connect to my server with windows, and i'm not getting any problems with permissions
[12:26] <m12> brownie17 , alt+f2 = xterm
[12:26] <simplechat> and it could not resolve mount mount /mnt
[12:27] <simplechat> ah, seems to be working
[12:27] <asc-> brownie17: The real question is, what is the default xfce terminal.
[12:27] <Jowi> Thunor, personnaly i only tried secpanel (it's not beautiful but it works)
[12:27] <Thunor> Jowi: Thanks!
[12:27] <brownie17> m12, opens a 'run' dialog. i want a terminal window
[12:27] <simplechat> thanks :)
[12:27] <simplechat> what sort of thing would have caused this wierdness?
[12:28] <m12> brownie17: type xterm ?
[12:28] <brownie17> asc-, is it? well do you know the command to run any?
[12:28] <tzembi> simplechat: set back the permissions to a sane state (777 is always bad ;) )
[12:28] <_cerberus_> does anyone know why I would get an error stating "FATAL: ext2 module not found" when booting dapper? the error is ignored and everything boots normally. Just a little disconcerting.
[12:28] <asc-> brownie17: He means to enter 'xterm' in the prompt that brings up. 'xterm' is one terminal emulator. 'gnome-terminal' is another
[12:28] <simplechat> 775?
[12:28] <brownie17> m12, well xterm is not the one i usually use.
[12:28] <savvas> I have nvidia 7300GT, does it support nvidia-glx-new ?
[12:28] <brownie17> asc-, oh lol, i misinterpreted him
[12:28] <asc-> Whether either of those are what xfce uses be default is beyond me
[12:28] <troubled> _cerberus_: ummm....wrong channel?
[12:29] <brownie17> asc-, m12, gnome-terminal is the one i want, thankyou
[12:29] <troubled> _cerberus_: nm, it would appear im in wrong channel :)
[12:29] <tzembi> simplechat: i personally like 770 but thats personal descision ;)
[12:29] <simplechat> so i'll just change that in my smb settings?
[12:29] <tzembi> simplechat: yes
[12:29] <shadowmancer> hey who knows about sound drivers
[12:30] <tzembi> simplechat: just think about what kind of data it is and who should see it
[12:31] <brownie17> anyone know the command for 'hide all windows and show desktop' or a way i can find out how to do window control through terminal commands?
[12:31] <tzembi> anyone got experience with apparmor here ?
[12:32] <simplechat> tzembi, its node data for a distributed computing app, its only going to be visible within the nodes ethernet connection (~16 nodes, all of who need to see it)
[12:32] <simplechat> the main server has two ethernet connectors and runs a firewall
[12:33] <mapp> urgh
[12:33] <mapp> burning tribe 5 at 8x now
[12:33] <mapp> 3rd attempt
[12:33] <mapp> and then i giveup!
[12:34] <tzembi> simplechat: i wouldnt tell this on irc ;)
[12:34] <Pete_> Is there an equivilent to /etc/SuSE-release on ubuntu?
[12:34] <simplechat> ehc, doesn't matter :)
[12:34] <simplechat> its never within 10 feet of the net :)
[12:35] <fdr-> small question: suppose I unmount a volume, and want to trigger its re-automounting; any idea how I woudl do this?
[12:35] <simplechat> /etc/fstab?
[12:35] <fdr-> not quite, /media is dynamic
[12:35] <mapp> i think he means like a script?
[12:35] <mapp> so he doesnt have to type mount or reboot?
[12:36] <fdr-> I figured such a procedure must already exist to create the directory and mount based on volume label
[12:36] <fdr-> I notice, for example, that gparted will trigger it
[12:36] <fdr-> (although I think that behavior is unintended)
[12:37] <fdr-> it so happens that this time I unmounted a volume, jiggered a few things, and would like it to be re-automounted
[12:37] <fdr-> low-road approach is to mkdir and mount
[12:37] <simplechat> yay! :D
[12:37] <simplechat> test worked :)
[12:37] <simplechat> (got the first thousand primes) :)
[12:37] <fdr-> eh? primes?
[12:37] <fdr-> lower-road yet closer to what I want was starting up gparted.
[12:37] <fdr-> (and closing it again)
[12:38] <simplechat> hehe
[12:38] <shadowmancer> hey what reasons would there be for audio drivers to just stop working?
[12:39] <tzembi> shadowmancer: plugged in a usb device (headset,webcam etc) ?
[12:39] <shadowmancer> i did, though it worked
[12:39] <shadowmancer> and i was trying to back up my folders on a new external
[12:40] <tzembi> shadowmancer: i mean a usb audio device (usb headse n stuff)... regardless, whats system-settings-audio showing ? correct soundcard ?
[12:41] <tzembi> shadowmancer: tehere are tesing buttons... do they work ?
[12:41] <shadowmancer> when i use them, they just close the application
[12:41] <shadowmancer> i am guessing cos they crash
[12:42] <shadowmancer> when i try to use the audio functions it gives me this "The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured.'
[12:42] <Nedski> Hey with VIM how do you save and quit?
[12:42] <steel_lady> how to install an audio card that I suspect has only windows drivers
[12:42] <fdr-> hit "esc" to get into command mode
[12:42] <fdr-> type colon (:)
[12:42] <fdr-> and then type wq <enter>
[12:43] <basanta> one of my colleague says that he has successfully made a customized live cd and now asked me to do a little research on installing ubuntu installer ( ubiquity ) into the customized chroot environment. I was wondering is it any different from installing any other packages from ubuntu repo?
[12:43] <brownie17> does anyone know what the command is to change workspaces, or how i can set a keyboard shortcut for it in XFCE?
[12:43] <x33> hey how can i startup with a terminal and not gnome?
[12:44] <Nedski> Thanks pplz
[12:44] <steel_lady> ubuntu recognizes the audio card but there is no sound. what should I do?
[12:44] <nbkr> x33, "sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove" should do the trick.
[12:44] <Jowi> x33, console (no X) or an xterm (in X)
[12:44] <fdr-> :obligatory "you should use emacs": here
[12:44] <basanta> brownie17, ctrl + alt + arrow?
[12:45] <tzembi> shadowmancer: what does "asoundconf list" show ?
[12:45] <shadowmancer> how do i see that?
[12:46] <tzembi> shadowmancer: open terminal and enter "asoundconf list"
[12:46] <shadowmancer> it doesn't show any
[12:46] <shadowmancer> its weird it was working before my back up
[12:47] <steel_lady> ubotu, sound
[12:47] <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). 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
[12:47] <shadowmancer> but the backup was just of my desktop
[12:47] <x33> nbkr: thanks and if i want to change back?
[12:47] <shadowmancer> not my whole hard drive
[12:47] <nbkr> x33, "sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults"
[12:47] <x33> perfecet, lets test
[12:47] <brownie17> basanta, i want to set up so f4 is desktop 1, f5 is desktop 2 and so on, this was how i had it set up in gnome and i've been using that for nearly 2 years, am far too accustomed to that to change now
[12:49] <basanta> brownie17, sorry no idea
[12:49] <kagemaro> Hey, does anyone here have any experience with mencoder?

[12:52] <nbkr> TheRandom, What kind of mouse does the Virtual PC simulate?
[12:52] <kagemaro> that should remove all instances
[12:52] <kagemaro> its wherever you un-tar'd it to
[12:52] <TheRandom> nbkr, im not to sure, I presume PS/2
[12:52] <Jowi> kagemaro, I would recommend #mencoder for that question. it's rather specific
[12:52] <chaad> kagemaro, i dont know where i untar it :(
[12:52] <nbkr> TheRandom, run "lsmod" on the system - is there "psmouse" listed?
[12:52] <chaad> it was a long time ago
[12:52] <kagemaro> ok try synaptic
[12:52] <kagemaro> search for pidgin
[12:53] <doug_> kagemaro,  if chaad deletes the folder wont that get rid of it?
[12:53] <TheRandom> nbkr, I am effectivly a newbie to linux, where do i run lsmod?
[12:53] <kagemaro> and uninstall
[12:53] <TheRandom> I'm guessing its a terminal command?
[12:53] <TheRandom> If so how do i get to the terminal without the mouse >_<
[12:53] <nbkr> TheRandom, Press alt-f2 und enter "gnome-terminal"
[12:53] <Hadeshor1> Hello pplz
[12:53] <kagemaro> doug_ - Yes he could delete /usr/bin :P that would get rid of it (PLEASE dont try this, this is humour)
[12:53] <TheRandom> Running...
[12:54] <bsh_> hello to all
[12:54] <chaad> kagemaro, when i search pidign in synaptic, i go pidgin, ppidgin data and pidgin-libnotify
[12:54] <shadowmancer> how do i get it to pick up my card
[12:54] <chaad> kagemaro, and i just installed pidgin lateversion from a deb
[12:54] <kagemaro> OK type apt-get remove pidgin at a command line
[12:54] <TheRandom> nbkr, I cant see it, however the list is longer then the window is high >_<
[12:55] <TheRandom> softcursor?
[12:55] <nbkr> TheRandom, then run "lsmod | grep psmouse"
[12:55] <kagemaro> I think if you re download the source and run ./configure
[12:55] <chaad> done, im using pidgin right now btw lol
[12:55] <bsh_> may i ask a quick question?
[12:55] <TheRandom> usage lsmod
[12:55] <TheRandom> !ask
[12:55] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:55] <TheRandom> ^_^
[12:55] <kagemaro> You could run make uninstall and make clean
[12:55] <kraut> moin
[12:55] <TheRandom> nbkr ' Usage: lsmod'
[12:55] <TheRandom> however my mouse is a USB
[12:56] <chaad> kagemaro from where?
[12:56] <nbkr> TheRandom, The | is called pipe. Press alt-gr and the button with <> o it.
[12:56] <kagemaro> www.pidgin.im
[12:56] <simplechat> hey tzembi i've got the same error again
[12:56] <kagemaro> |
[12:56] <simplechat> its still supposedly 777
[12:56] <chaad> kagemaro i meant from where i run the command?
[12:56] <bsh_> i'm a linux noob and i'm confused. having a pc with faulty ram and trying to make it stable with badram/memtest. i'm confused by the google results. is badram already in the ubuntu 6.10 x86 or not?
[12:56] <kiersie> i had a idee if you right-click on an program(application you can those to open it with sudo
[12:56] <Hadeshorn> Woo its been a good weekend, Ubuntu doesnt crash starting up, I have wireless running.. Life is good!
[12:56] <shadowmancer> is it possible it was because of a update i did
[12:56] <kagemaro> chaad - first close pidgin
[12:56] <mapp> Hades, good stuff=] 
[12:57] <kagemaro> chaad - then run apt-get remove pidgin from a command line
[12:57] <mapp> bsh, use memtest86?
[12:57] <chaad> kagemaro, haha ok  how can i chat to you then jaja :(
[12:57] <bsh_> yes.
[12:57] <kagemaro> chaad - then run 'pidgin' from a command line, and see if it works
[12:57] <chaad> ok i try
[12:57] <kagemaro> chaad - run KSirc
[12:57] <bsh_> i just dont wanna comile the kernel
[12:57] <kagemaro> its built with ubuntu by standard
[12:57] <bsh_> yeah that's what i wanted to know, thanks :D
[12:57] <tzembi> simplechat: did you change the permissions in smb.conf ?
[12:57] <mapp> for memtest86 u wouldnt need to?
[12:58] <TheRandom> nbkr, I have no button with <> on it (I have an english keyboard?)
[12:58] <simplechat> nosc, apparently having more then one bash window up does it
[12:58] <simplechat> nope
[12:58] <chaad> kagemaro, chad@chad-laptop:~$ KSirc bash: KSirc: command not found
[12:58] <TheRandom> |?
[12:58] <simplechat> i didn't change any permissions
[12:58] <simplechat> and now its working again?
[12:58] <simplechat> this is wierd
[12:58] <kiersie> TheRandom try ,. with shift
[12:58] <kagemaro> chaad - try ksirc
[12:58] <nbkr> TheRandom, Than you have a broken keyboard. Normaly the button is left or below the z on english keyboards.
[12:59] <chaad> not installed
[12:59] <kagemaro> chaad - I run it from the application menu Internet>KSirc
[12:59] <bsh_> oh and how to pass the bad addresses to the grub/kernel? shoudl i write it on a sheet of paper or what? there are some 13000 errors, allin the last few mb of the ram, i might be using meme=370 instead
[12:59] <TheRandom> nbkr, I do have that button, however when pressing it with shift it comes up with <
[12:59] <TheRandom> >*
[12:59] <doug_> kagemaro,  what does ksirc do?
[12:59] <kagemaro> TheRandom - are you using a laptop
[12:59] <kagemaro> doug_ - it is an IRC client
[12:59] <mapp> bsh_not sure u mean so grub igmores bad blocks?
[12:59] <Jowi> TheRandom, don't use shift. use Alt Gr (the right Alt button)
[01:00] <TheRandom> kagemaro, no, I'm using a main desktop with Saitek Eclipse keyboard, I'm running Ubuntu on VM2007
[01:00] <TheRandom> Jowi, same problem.
[01:00] <tzembi> simplechat: are the nodes connecting all with the same user ?
[01:00] <simplechat> yes
[01:00] <simplechat> at the moments i only have one tho
[01:00] <chad> hi
[01:00] <bsh_> mapp, yes...
[01:00] <kagemaro> That keyboard is beautiful :P
[01:00] <TheRandom> Actually AltGr + \ = Nothing
[01:00] <simplechat> well i only have one piriod :)
[01:00] <tzembi> simplechat: i think this could be a problem with smb.... but not sure
[01:00] <TheRandom> Indeed kagemaro :)
[01:00] <kagemaro> Try Shift + \
[01:01] <simplechat> smb locking?
[01:01] <shadowmancer> does anyone know how to go back from an update
[01:01] <Hadeshorn> ok i am going to go set the computer upstairs
[01:01] <Hadeshorn> later fellow ubuntians!
[01:01] <TheRandom> coming out with > again kagemaro
[01:01] <kiersie> umh try to set it with dead keys therandom
[01:01] <simplechat> tzembi, would you recommend nfs?
[01:01] <n0ur> test :S
[01:01] <tzembi> simplechat: maybe ssomething... try looking smb docs.... or using nfs ;)
[01:01] <n0ur> o nvm
[01:01] <TheRandom> kiersie... how? :(
[01:01] <brownie17> anyone know what the command is to switch to a specific workspace?
[01:01] <simplechat> nfs is better?
[01:01] <kiersie> system setting keybord
[01:01] <mapp> not sure mate trying to find out atm
[01:02] <TheRandom> kiersie, I have no mouse... It's what I'm trying to solve :P
[01:02] <nbkr> TheRandom, Enter "sudo modprobe psmouse" - that should load the mouse-module.
[01:02] <bsh_> mapp: i've found it already, just wasn't sure if i need to recompile the kernel or not.
[01:02] <tzembi> simplechat: dunno... try looking in the smb docs what they have to say about multiple connections of same user
[01:02] <chaad> kagemaro, i remove pidgin from the terminal and still can open pidgin by typing pidgin from the terminal
[01:02] <n0ur> hey people
[01:02] <n0ur> 
[01:02] <nbkr> TheRandom, After that you can try to reconfigure the keyboard.
[01:02] <simplechat> man smb
[01:02] <mapp> bsh_, u got a url i could read-im wondering how u tell grub to ignore some blocks
[01:02] <kiersie> gnome-keyboard-properties
[01:03] <Sulo_Seppa> My recompiled kernel does not work. I downloaded the newest one, and used the same config for the stock kernel, but it fails upon boot. However, I am new to this kernel bit :p is there a good guide on how to do it? (I actually need a few options)
[01:03] <n0ur> im trying to get ubuntu on virtual box
[01:03] <n0ur> and uhm, i get this "no bootable medium found system halted"
[01:03] <n0ur> google could help to fix this...
[01:03] <TheRandom> nbkr, FATAL: Error inserting psmouse (/lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/psmouse.ko): Operation not permitted'
[01:03] <bsh_> mapp, one moment...
[01:03] <n0ur> :)
[01:03] <TheRandom> (Note this is still only the Live version of Ubuntu, I can't install it without the mouse apparently.
[01:03] <kagemaro> How do I close the manual program? lol
[01:03] <TheRandom> )
[01:03] <jrib> n0ur: you are telling virtualbox to mount an ubuntu iso so you can install it?
[01:03] <jrib> kagemaro: q   see 'man intro'
[01:03] <bsh_> mapp: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=102254
[01:04] <shadowmancer> hey does anyone know how to undo an update
[01:04] <n0ur> no, i have the iso in my hard disk
[01:04] <kagemaro> chaad - OK try downloading the source from www.pidgin.im, then unzip and tar xvf it
[01:04] <bsh_> mapp: second post from the bottom up
[01:04] <kiersie> TheRandom:  gnome-keyboard-properties
[01:04] <mapp> thanks mate
[01:04] <mapp> i will have a read
[01:04] <nbkr> TheRandom, Try the alternate install CD - it runs in text-mode. No mouse needed for installation.
[01:04] <Romnous> hey i have successfully setup ubuntu as a gateway and domain controller. i want to install a wireless network card into the ubuntu-computer and turn it into a wireless access point, is it possible to have a wired connection, and a wireless network connection running at the same time?
[01:04] <shadowmancer> cos i think thats what i caused my sound devices to disapear
[01:04] <kagemaro> jrib - thanks
[01:04] <jrib> kagemaro: nevermind, 'man intro' doesn't cover it.  Maybe 'man less' or 'man man', but it is q to quit
[01:04] <TheRandom> nbkr, will I still get the same problem after installing though?
[01:04] <kagemaro> It does cover it
[01:04] <bsh_> mapp: as said, i just wasn't sure if the patch is already in ubuntu or i need to compile it
[01:05] <mapp> :>
[01:05] <nbkr> Romnous, sure - just configure the routing correctly.
[01:05] <bsh_> mapp: and it's about a few bad addresses, what if i have over 13000?!
[01:05] <mapp> hmm
[01:05] <edulix> hi
[01:05] <Paddy_EIRE> ho
[01:05] <nbkr> TheRandom, maybe - I never used that Virtual PC Thing. I'm using VMware. And Ubuntu works like a charm in such an environment.
[01:05] <mapp> how big is the stick of memory, and what % is that of the block
[01:05] <jrib> !who | n0ur
[01:05] <ubotu> n0ur: 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 :)
[01:05] <edulix> I've reading this bsd thing. I've never taked a deep look at bsd license, but now that I have, I have some doubts..
[01:05] <TheRandom> nbkr VMware is free?
[01:06] <TheRandom> I might with with that
[01:06] <TheRandom> go*
[01:06] <kiersie> or random try sudo gnome-mouse-properties
[01:06] <Romnous> nbkr: i've set up rules for the wired connection, so i should use the same for the access point? and do you have a list of supported wireless network cards?
[01:06] <mapp> i wonder why 7.10 wont work on my inspiron?
[01:06] <nbkr> TheRandom, Yes - there is a free version. The "VMWare Server"
[01:06] <n0ur> oh yes sorry jrib
[01:06] <Romnous> mapp: because it's in beta?
[01:06] <Romnous> *alpha
[01:06] <TheRandom> Thank you very much nbkr, Ill download that now
[01:06] <jrib> n0ur: power down the virtual machine, go to settings, then tell it to mount that iso as the cdrom
[01:06] <TheRandom> And say a not-so-fond farewell to Virtial Machine
[01:06] <Paddy_EIRE> !info qemu | TheRandom
[01:07] <mapp> Rom; yes true, but then 6.10/7.04 also have problems with my 9400 , inspiron
[01:07] <edulix> so it seems that if I redistribute a software that is under bsd, I can choose to do whatever I want with it, i.e. I can just not release the source code. but if I choose to release it, its license must remain being bsd?
[01:07] <bsh_> mapp:i have 3x128mb and the errors are in the upper range
[01:07] <ubotu> therandom: qemu: fast processor emulator. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.2+dfsg-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 3465 kB, installed size 9460 kB (Only available for amd64 i386 powerpc alpha sparc arm s390 kfreebsd-i386 kfreebsd-amd64)
[01:07] <Eghie> join #samba
[01:07] <TheRandom> Paddy_EIRE, thanks but abit late.
[01:07] <Paddy_EIRE> your choice
[01:07] <Romnous> mapp: maybe it's a compatibility issue? you should post a bug-file somewhere:PO
[01:07] <mapp> :)
[01:07] <Anlar> edulix: sure, but that's not a license issue but a copyright holding issue
[01:07] <mapp> yes
[01:07] <mapp> true
[01:07] <TheRandom> If VMware server works then fair enough
[01:07] <nbkr> Romnous, probably not the _same_ rules. And sorry I don't have a list of supported wireless card that support the access point mode.
[01:07] <TheRandom> nbkr, how does VMware server go for FreeDOS?
[01:07] <mapp> bsh_; but how many blocks total
[01:07] <Anlar> edulix: the one who actually wrote the code is the only one with the rights to change that anyways
[01:08] <mapp> bsh:13000 bad, out of how many
[01:08] <nbkr> TheRandom, Never used FreeDos.
[01:08] <Romnous> nbkr: thanks for the help anyway :), i found that they have to be able to be set in "master" mode
[01:08] <TheRandom> Fair enough.
[01:08] <TheRandom> I like my old DOS games :P
[01:08] <bsh_> mapp: dunno, it's still running home
[01:08] <ibob63> i'm trying to use hardware raid - but ubuntu just see the harddrives on the raid array. Any ideas?
[01:08] <mapp> ah
[01:08] <TheRandom> General question: Is Ubuntu good for running a Linux server?
[01:08] <TheRandom> Or would you want Gentoo/Redhat etc
[01:08] <Romnous> TheRandom: YES:P
[01:08] <Paddy_EIRE> TheRandom, use ubuntu server
[01:09] <mapp> well, it all depends how you lock it down
[01:09] <bsh_> mapp: i've set memtest to output badmem codes... will it automatically add it to the grub or what?
[01:09] <Romnous> TheRandom, use ubuntu
[01:09] <edulix> Anlar: well the BSD developer could have released the code to the public domain, and then anyone could put any license to it
[01:09] <mapp> and what for imo
[01:09] <nbkr> TheRandom, Ubuntu does well as a server.
[01:09] <Anlar> edulix: it's just a technicality, software has been changed from bsd to gpl and vice versa, sometimes requiring just some little extra work
[01:09] <TheRandom> Paddy_EIRE, a specialized version of Ubuntu? Or is it the standard.
[01:09] <mapp> bsh: no i think you will have to tell grub which parts to ignore still
[01:09] <TheRandom> And thank you all for the answer I was looking for :p
[01:09] <Paddy_EIRE> TheRandom, you can install the server packages on the desktop edition
[01:09] <ibob63> anyone know anything about hardware and ubuntu?
[01:09] <TheRandom> Paddy_EIRE, fantastic.
[01:09] <Paddy_EIRE> TheRandom, or you can go for the server edition if you wish
[01:10] <Anlar> edulix: including ie. gpl, which would be bad
[01:10] <TheRandom> I'm trialing it at the moment at home, I might be integrating it slightly with work when I get ALOT more familier with it
[01:10] <nbkr> !ask | ibob63
[01:10] <ubotu> ibob63: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:10] <mapp> serer has no gui obviously
[01:10] <mapp> *server
[01:10] <TheRandom> Paddy_EIRE, if server has no GUI i might stick to desktop
[01:10] <n0ur> and now i get "could not find kernel image" jrib  : /
[01:10] <bsh_> mapp: this is going to be my internet pc 24/7 torrenting etc. to avoid windows reporting my programs etc. :)
[01:10] <DeZ_666> Can someone help me compile from source :?
[01:10] <TheRandom> lol bsh_
[01:10] <naser> hello
[01:10] <edulix> Anlar: it seems I had a wrong view of the BSD license =) I thought it was so "open" that allowed you even to change the license (as you can do with public domain code right?)
[01:10] <jrib> n0ur: is it booting the cd?
[01:10] <wib> hi, i updated the linux headers, now sound wont work anymore. quick solution?
[01:10] <TheRandom> stick it to microsoft
[01:10] <mapp> lol bsh
[01:11] <Paddy_EIRE> TheRandom, fair enough.. you can install any gui you want on the server though anyway
[01:11] <n0ur> oh.. no cd : /
[01:11] <naser> i have router modem its work in kde desktop (kubuntu) non-any problem
[01:11] <jrib> n0ur: erm, I mean iso
[01:11] <naser> but in gnome its not work
[01:11] <Anlar> edulix: yes. however bsd is a good license, there is no really need to convert away from it
[01:11] <mapp> i have a question-ive been messing with samba as a PDC, for 2 windows/2 linux machines - is there anyway to make it so the clients use the server userfile? rather than having to have user mark on both client + domain?!
[01:11] <kagemaro> chaad - download the source from www.pidgin.im, unzip/untar it, go into the directory, type sudo ./configure && sudo make && sudo make uninstall && sudo make clean
[01:11] <naser> what to do ????????
[01:11] <TheRandom> Paddy_EIRE, I'll jot all this down, if the desktop edition is to limited I'll certainly look at server.
[01:11] <n0ur> i can do it without the cd, right jrib ?
[01:11] <mapp> hopefully someone can offer some help
[01:11] <brownie17> bsh_, seems kinda paranoid delusional.
[01:11] <chickenF> interested in Java and 3d graphics? join #java3d
[01:11] <nbkr> TheRandom, try to learn to administer a system from the console. You'll see that this is the real deal. The console is really powerfull. Think about it as kind of "Swiss Army Knife" for Linux.
[01:11] <bsh_> i am paranoid since i've been caught once
[01:11] <bsh_> :(
[01:11] <jrib> n0ur: yeah, you can just tell it to mount the iso
[01:11] <TheRandom> brownie17, this IS microsoft :P
[01:12] <brownie17> bsh_, seriously? were you selling downloaded stuff?
[01:12] <TheRandom> nbkr, do you know of any documentation I could read up on?
[01:12] <brownie17> bsh_, can i hear the story?
[01:12] <edulix> Anlar: well that depends on personal preferences. I prefer GPL, you prefer BSD =) I was just trying to understand BSD better
[01:12] <mapp> anyone able to answer my q?:P
[01:12] <mapp> ive been looking everywhere=] 
[01:12] <edulix> Anlar: thanks for your help in that ;)
[01:12] <jrib> !please > mapp (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:12] <bsh_> no i wasn't selling, only using...
[01:12] <n0ur> uhm, i did choose the iso path.. jrib ..
[01:12] <n0ur> :/
[01:12] <nbkr> TheRandom, O'Reilly has serveral good books about that topic.
[01:12] <DeZ_666> kagemaro: im trying to compile pidgin from source as well
[01:12] <Anlar> edulix: it's not really "personal preferences".. the an other one is bad for innovation, and the other one is not.
[01:12] <DeZ_666> having...problems
[01:12] <Paddy_EIRE> bsh_, there not interested in guys like you
[01:12] <bsh_> it was bulletproof ftp
[01:13] <jrib> n0ur: but do you see that it is actually trying to load it when you boot the virtual machine?
[01:13] <TheRandom> nbkr, first name? ;)
[01:13] <naser> i have router modem its work in kde desktop (kubuntu) but not working in gnome (ubuntu)
[01:13] <naser> ??????
[01:13] <Sulo_Seppa> Does the stock kernel come with multiple system joystick support?
[01:13] <kagemaro> DeZ_666 - what problems?
[01:13] <mapp> naser, what problem exactly
[01:13] <nbkr> TheRandom, pardon?
[01:13] <DeZ_666> using ./configure results in terminal saying that gcc cant create executeables
[01:13] <DeZ_666> :|
[01:13] <n0ur> yes, jrib
[01:13] <TheRandom> nbkr, O'Reilly, I've never heard of him before.
[01:13] <TheRandom> Him/Her.
[01:13] <kagemaro> Oh, you dont have the compiler installed
[01:13] <jrib> n0ur: hmm, what iso are you using?
[01:13] <kagemaro> I'm trying to remember what the package is called
[01:14] <chaad> kagemaro, i tar the source, did ./configure and then make, whats next?
[01:14] <DeZ_666> but it says gcc is there
[01:14] <edulix> Anlar: that's what you think, but I don't think so. How good is for innovation to be able to close some source code? I think that imposing that source must be released is better for innovation
[01:14] <nbkr> TheRandom, O'Reilly is a publisher: www.oreilly.com
[01:14] <kagemaro> make uninstall && make clean
[01:14] <brownie17> are virtual machines hard to set up? i'm thinking about setting up a windows virtual machine

[01:14] <Anlar> edulix: investment is the base of innovation. time, resources, money. the other one fosters that, the other one not. all the "brightest stars" of gpl software have done so far (on relevant areas) is aping
[01:14] <DeZ_666> yes
[01:14] <mapp> bsh_ change sources to use cd?
[01:15] <kagemaro> DeZ_666 I just can't remember what its called :/
[01:15] <bsh_> yeah but how?
[01:15] <mapp> that's if the cd contains the packages of coz
[01:15] <edulix> Anlar: what code do you prefer, the one you can't have acces to, or the one you have access to? developmet is incremental, you develop X, I modify it, then you add some more new modifications...
[01:15] <kiersie> there is mostly an install doc bij source
[01:15] <nbkr> TheRandom, They have an online library. You can access all their books for 49$/month.
[01:15] <naser> mapp :  i have network card and router modem its work in kde desktop but in gnome doesnt work
[01:15] <Paddy_EIRE> brownie17, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[01:15] <jesSon_newbie> can someone tell me please where i can find free unix account?  are there server that are still running under unix?? where can i download unix ?
[01:15] <bsh_> should i add sources to a local folder or what?
[01:15] <jesSon_newbie> can someone tell me please where i can find free unix account?  are there server that are still running under unix?? where can i download unix ?
[01:15] <TheRandom> nbkr, thanks for the heads up.
[01:15] <DeZ_666> kagemaro: is it perhaps gcc?
[01:15] <DeZ_666> :|
[01:15] <mapp> brownie, vmware server is free, and would do the job
[01:15] <kagemaro> DeZ_666 - no, I think its build-essential
[01:15] <n0ur> 1.4.0 jrib
[01:15] <DeZ_666> Hmm
[01:15] <kagemaro> Or something like that
[01:15] <jrib> brownie17: I think virtualbox is the easiest
[01:15] <DeZ_666> well i compiled it in puppy linux
[01:16] <Paddy_EIRE> jrib, is it
[01:16] <kagemaro> brownie17 - I would recommend VMware Server
[01:16] <mapp> jesSon_newbie, you wanna download unix?! well you can download ubuntu at ubuntu.com:P
[01:16] <DeZ_666> but i had to load a sfs that had gcc in it..
[01:16] <DeZ_666> or something like that
[01:16] <jrib> n0ur: try ugprading to 1.5.0
[01:16] <DeZ_666> :3
[01:16] <nbkr> jesSon_newbie, There is no one "unix" - there are serveral flavours.
[01:16] <mapp> vmware server/virtual box are both ok
[01:16] <jesSon_newbie> is unix ubuntu ?
[01:16] <mapp> altho i seem to recall virtual box crashing on me
[01:16] <Anlar> edulix: code is the lowest level just as the coders are the lowest scum of all it people :)
[01:16] <nbkr> jesSon_newbie, Ubuntu is Linux and Linux is like Unix.
[01:16] <cybervegan> you can download opensolaris frommany sites - that's unix
[01:16] <jrib> !virtualizers > brownie17 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:16] <kagemaro> Virtualbox has crash bugs, VMware doesn't (from my experience)
[01:17] <edulix> Anlar: aping? hell yeah!  I told you, innovation is incremental in software. you don't just start from scratch in software
[01:17] <mapp> yea, vmware is ok, although i always have to be careful or it kills my net
[01:17] <mapp> due to the vmnet etc
[01:17] <Paddy_EIRE> no.. ubuntu is linux + gnu linux is based on unix jesSon_newbie
[01:17] <kagemaro> DeZ_666 try sudo apt-get install build-essential
[01:17] <DeZ_666> Allright
[01:17] <doug_> me i just dual boot
[01:17] <shadowmancer> does anyone know about problems with the recent update released
[01:17] <jesSon_newbie> are the commands on linux  exactly the same as unix?? i have ubuntu running .. do u know any server where i can get free unix account like browse on their folder
[01:17] <nbkr> jesSon_newbie, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix - The image on the right might help to make it clearer.
[01:17] <adaptr> Paddy_EIRE linux is based on Unix ? since when ?
[01:17] <n0ur> ok jrib
[01:17] <DeZ_666> How do i tell if it worked kagemaro
[01:18] <Paddy_EIRE> adaptr, well minix
[01:18] <n0ur> wish me luck : /
[01:18] <kagemaro> DeZ_666 it will say like
[01:18] <naser> no body can help me can :S
[01:18] <mapp> jesSon, why would you need an account-play around on your machine?
[01:18] <Paddy_EIRE> adaptr, tomato tamato
[01:18] <kagemaro> DeZ_666 'Installing' lol
[01:18] <naser>  i have network card and router modem its work in kde desktop but in gnome doesnt work
[01:18] <DeZ_666> Uhh
[01:18] <gary4gar> !kernel
[01:18] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[01:18] <DeZ_666> ill rafb.net it
[01:18] <DeZ_666> Ok?
[01:18] <mapp> your network card doesn't work at all naser?
[01:18] <adaptr> Paddy_EIRE not really, minix is not a working Unix in any meaningful sense of the word
[01:18] <kagemaro> DeZ_666 what did it say when you ran that command?
[01:18] <jesSon_newbie> cuz i have a book about unix and i want a server where i can practice the commands
[01:18] <naser> my network card doesnt work in gnome
[01:18] <DeZ_666> Ill rafb.net it
[01:18] <naser> yes
[01:18] <jesSon_newbie> and learn at the same time
[01:18] <carvasf> anyone can help me with a wireless card prolem?
[01:18] <Pirate_Hunter> how do I mount NTFS hard disk? what are the commands?
[01:18] <edulix> anyway, time to go, bye ;)
[01:18] <jrib> !ntfs > Pirate_Hunter (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:18] <nbkr> jesSon_newbie, What is the title of the book?
[01:18] <mapp> naser;what card is it
[01:18] <Sergo> hello
[01:18] <kagemaro> DeZ_666 - it should request your root password then aptitude should install build_essential
[01:19] <mapp> hi
[01:19] <Paddy_EIRE> adaptr, the foundation of linux is because of in large part bsds' unix
[01:19] <aricz_> jesSon_newbie : http://www.red-pill.eu/freeunix.shtml
[01:19] <Sergo> i have mobile Motorola, when i plug it into usb the ubuntu doesn't detect it, can i do something?
[01:19] <Sulo_Seppa> Can anyone answer my question?
[01:19] <jesSon_newbie> denorah rady is the author of the book
[01:19] <jrib> !please > Sulo_Seppa (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:19] <nbkr> !ubuntu > nbkr
[01:19] <Pirate_Hunter> how do I mount NTFS hard disk? what are the commands?
[01:19] <Flannel> kagemaro, DeZ_666, not root password.  Your user password.  Ubuntu doesn't use the root account.
[01:19] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: did you see the link ubotu sent you?
[01:19] <adaptr> Paddy_EIRE okay, true, if you go several layers down and several decades back, then Linux is based on Unix somewhen - but so is Windows :)
[01:19] <kagemaro> Flannel - with sudo?
[01:19] <DeZ_666> Flannel
[01:20] <Flannel> kagemaro: right.
[01:20] <DeZ_666> i figured that out from a few things
[01:20] <Sulo_Seppa> Does the stock kernel come with multiple system joystick support?
[01:20] <DeZ_666> kagemaro: http://rafb.net/p/5McIM039.html
[01:20] <Paddy_EIRE> adaptr, yeah and mac etall
[01:20] <cybervegan> pirate_hunter: get yourself a command window, and, type:mkdir windowsdisk
[01:20] <DeZ_666> i /just/ bothered reading the output, i think it was ok
[01:20] <bsh_> thanks for the tips
[01:20] <adaptr> well, mac osx - not mac os
[01:20] <bsh_> bye
[01:20] <Paddy_EIRE> adaptr, but I know what you mean
[01:20] <tzembi> simplechat: i searched a bit on your problem and maybe ths helps you out... http://de3.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch08.html
[01:20] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: thanx  will look at it
[01:20] <jesSon_newbie> how can i host a telnet chat server on my ubuntu is there any program i can dl off the net? tell me how to setup 1 pls
[01:20] <cybervegan> then type: sudo mount /dev/hda1 windowsdisk
[01:20] <Flannel> DeZ_666: close any other package managers you have open
[01:20] <Paddy_EIRE> adaptr, yeah curiously what was mac os originally
[01:20] <gary4gar> !telnet
[01:20] <ubotu> telnet is not safe. Please use ssh instead. See !ssh
[01:20] <DeZ_666> Flannel: closed, they are.
[01:21] <cybervegan> you need to change /dev/hda1 to whatever disk/partition your ntfs partition is on
[01:21] <kagemaro> DeZ_666 - close Synaptic and Update Manager
[01:21] <adaptr> Paddy_EIRE it was mac os, originally
[01:21] <nbkr> jesSon_newbie, A chat server or a telnet server? That it not the same.
[01:21] <Cyrus25801> i feel like an idot. where is sources.list loucated aging
[01:21] <DeZ_666> And retry?
[01:21] <jesSon_newbie> telnet server, telnet talk server
[01:21] <jesSon_newbie> port 23
[01:22] <Paddy_EIRE> adaptr, gets a little confusing :P http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/11/Unix-history.svg
[01:22] <aricz_> Cyrus25801 : /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:22] <kagemaro> Cyrus25801 - /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:22] <adaptr> convoluted, is more like it
[01:22] <Flannel> DeZ_666: Double check that they're all closed.  Adept, Synaptic, Update Manager, other Apt-gets, aptitude, add/remove, etc.
[01:22] <Cyrus25801> thanx
[01:22] <nbkr> jesSon_newbie, Ok - so you want to administrate a system via telnet - that is not a good idea. Telnet ist not encrypted. Use SSH instead.
[01:22] <DeZ_666> I dont see anything like that open
[01:22] <DeZ_666> so ill assume they are closed :)
[01:22] <brownie17> do you think that if i ran a QEMU virtual box of windows in ubuntu i would be able to play age of empires 2?
[01:23] <Flannel> DeZ_666: if they are infact closed, we'll manually delete the lock file.  But if they're not closed, it can cause problems.  `ps aux | less` and check.
[01:23] <kagemaro> brownie17 - I know you can on a VMware virtualbox
[01:23] <jesSon_newbie> remember the old skul chat when people just connect to an ip like 234.232.243.43 23 then they start chatting? that 1 i like to host 1
[01:23] <kagemaro> brownie17 - VMware server is now free
[01:23] <doug_> brownie17,  best thng for games is to dual boot xp and ubuntu
[01:24] <Paddy_EIRE> kagemaro, yeah but its not exactly got many features
[01:24] <Paddy_EIRE> kagemaro, and its not free free
[01:24] <nbkr> jesSon_newbie, that doesn't run on port 23 normaly.
[01:24] <kagemaro> doug_ - AOE2 requires about 16mb ram
[01:24] <pussfeller> how do you get that network applet off of manual and back to normal????
[01:24] <kagemaro> doug_ - I'd be surprised if it doesn't run under Wine :P
[01:24] <jesSon_newbie> yah but the common is 23 anyway u guys remember that? how can i host 1 ?
[01:24] <nbkr> jesSon_newbie, But there a serveral java apps around that implement such an thing.
[01:24] <CokeNCode> hey good morning guys, looking for a program to edit audio
[01:25] <CokeNCode> any suggestions ?
[01:25] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - sudo apt-get install sshd
[01:25] <Flannel> CokeNCode: Audacity?
[01:25] <nbkr> CokeNCode, audacity
[01:25] <CokeNCode> thanks guys
[01:25] <CokeNCode> didn't know audacity could edit
[01:25] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - then run sudo sshd from command bar
[01:25] <Paddy_EIRE> kagemaro, most would be surprised if it did run under wine :P
[01:25] <jesSon_newbie> then i have a telnet talk server?
[01:25] <pussfeller> i cant get the network applet off of manual mode
[01:25] <Flannel> jesSon_newbie, kagemaro, sshd will start automatically when installed
[01:25] <kagemaro> Paddy_EIRE - Most of my games run under Wine
[01:25] <pussfeller> i think i have to delete something
[01:25] <jrib> jesSon_newbie: the package you want for ssh server is "openssh-server", see ubotu's message for more details
[01:25] <DeZ_666> They dont appear to be open
[01:25] <jrib> !ssh > jesSon_newbie (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:25] <Flannel> DeZ_666: And you still get that error?
[01:26] <Paddy_EIRE> !worksforme | kagemaro
[01:26] <ubotu> kagemaro: 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/
[01:26] <DeZ_666> sudo ./configure returns the same error
[01:26] <Flannel> DeZ_666: configure returns that error?
[01:26] <DeZ_666> how do i get out of ps aux
[01:26] <DeZ_666> D:
[01:26] <kagemaro> Paddy_EIRE - I have WoW, AOE2 (the game in question), Football Manager 2007 and a few others running flawlessly under Wine
[01:26] <nbkr> DeZ_666, ps aux terminates itself.
[01:26] <jrib> DeZ_666: are you sure you are "in" it?
[01:26] <Flannel> DeZ_666: q
[01:26] <DeZ_666> it just says (END) with a blinking cursor
[01:26] <mathieu_> bonjour, j'ai suivi un tuto, j'ai effac des truc et depuis quand je remarre j'ai un message : GDM ne peut crire dans votre fichier d'autorisation. Cela peut signifier que vous etes  cours d'espace disque ou que votre dossier personnel ne peut etre ouvert en criture. Dans tout les cas, il n'est pas possible de vous connecter.

[01:26] <Flannel> jrib: he's in less
[01:27] <Flannel> !fr | mathieu_
[01:27] <ubotu> mathieu_: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[01:27] <DeZ_666> AHA
[01:27] <DeZ_666> q worked.
[01:27] <Paddy_EIRE> kagemaro, yeah those generally have better support in wine... although in my exp a dual boot system is the way to go when it comes to games
[01:27] <jesSon_newbie> how do i setup sock 4 proxy server on my ubuntu ??? so ican connect on it when im not home ?
[01:27] <DeZ_666> Flannel: "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[01:27] <DeZ_666> "
[01:27] <jesSon_newbie> suggest program pls
[01:27] <DeZ_666> err
[01:27] <DeZ_666> :/
[01:28] <Flannel> DeZ_666: that's because you need build-essential
[01:28] <Pirate_Hunter> !permission
[01:28] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[01:28] <DeZ_666> Please, explain how to get it :)
[01:28] <Flannel> jesSon_newbie: use ssh
[01:28] <Soup_> anyone here use VINO? Im having a problem when connecting from outside its majorly non responsive from vnc client
[01:28] <jesSon_newbie> ssh ?? then ???
[01:28] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - sudo apt-get install sshd
[01:28] <DeZ_666> lemme put the side of my case on real fast..
[01:28] <Soup_> I can see desktop and move mouse but it does not allow me to really use it even though I turned on full control
[01:28] <Flannel> DeZ_666: `sudo apt-get install build-essential` just like you've been trying.  Does it still give you the error?
[01:28] <jesSon_newbie> after that i just run sshd ?? sshd is a program / application ??
[01:28] <Flannel> jesSon_newbie: install the openssh-server package
[01:29] <aricz_> confuse him more
[01:29] <jrib> jesSon_newbie: no, it runs automatically
[01:29] <carvasf> anyone can help me with an atheros wireless card?
[01:29] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[01:29] <kagemaro> Sorry my bad
[01:29] <Flannel> jesSon_newbie: no.  After you've done that, sshd will be running.  You connect to it with a ssh client, like, well, `ssh` or something like putty on windows.
[01:29] <Pirate_Hunter> how do I give myself read & write permission to my ntfs hard disk?
[01:29] <jesSon_newbie> it opens wat port?? sock 4 ryt? not proxy for web browser
[01:29] <DeZ_666> Sec lemme try to get build-essential
[01:29] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > Pirate_Hunter (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:29] <slight> can anyone tell me how to change the filesystem signature on a partition? i have an ext3 partition that got marked as fat32 by a windows recovery tool. It's definitely still ext3 because i can mount it with mount -t ext3
[01:29] <Soup_> Pirate go to repository and type NTS
[01:29] <DeZ_666> its d/ling it
[01:30] <Soup_> NTfs
[01:30] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - Why would you want to run proxy for web browser on your home machine?
[01:30] <cybervegan> pirate_hunter: do you want a quick fix or to understand how it works?
[01:30] <DeZ_666> slight
[01:30] <Soup_> easy app there I use it
[01:30] <jesSon_newbie> no not proxy for web browser , i said sock 4 like port 1080
[01:30] <tahit> u86ru86r8u6r86r
[01:30] <Paddy_EIRE> jrib, gonna give virtualbox a go with win2000
[01:30] <Soup_> anyone here use VINO? Im having a problem when connecting from outside its majorly non responsive from vnc client
[01:30] <slight> DeZ_666, : hi
[01:31] <Pirate_Hunter> cybervegan: quick fix would be nice about now
[01:31] <Paddy_EIRE> jrib, with ubuntu as the host ofcourse
[01:31] <DeZ_666> slight: you need disklabel, i think
[01:31] <cybervegan> pirate_hunter: are you ok editing linux config files?
[01:31] <nbkr> Soup_, is it such extremly slow? Then try to scale down the quality. Krdp should have a setting for it if you are using that.
[01:31] <basix> i'm trying to install Ubuntu 7.04 under Xen ( guest ). I've mounted the CD and created a symlink to it in /var/www/html/. I restarted apache. When I enter all the info in Virual Machine Manager to create a new paravirtualized machine, it says "[Errno 14]  HTTP Error 404". I checked if the Ubuntu install CD is accessible through localhost and it is perfectly accessible through Firefox. Why am i gettng that error message from the Virual Machine manager???
[01:31] <DeZ_666> or if the info doesnt matter, use gparted and reformat it?
[01:32] <GIn> why can't Ubuntu mount my 4GB memory stick , pro duo, automatically? it does mount smaller ones, 512MB.
[01:32] <Pirate_Hunter> cybervegan: u mean fstab yeha as long as you tell me the commands
[01:32] <slight> DeZ_666, it's my boot partition :)
[01:32] <DeZ_666> Oh my.
[01:32] <slight> DeZ_666, i do have the data so could reformat it, but i'd rather do a non-destructive fix if possible
[01:32] <DeZ_666> :)
[01:32] <jrib> Paddy_EIRE: you don't need to edit any files manually, ubotu's link tells you the gui program to install that will do all this for you
[01:32] <DeZ_666> disklabel?
[01:32] <Soup_> im in gnome, but is there a way to do like XP login into a new session remotely?
[01:32] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: you don't need to edit any files manually, ubotu's link tells you the gui program to install that will do all this for you
[01:32] <DeZ_666> you need to change the partition code, type, whatever its called
[01:33] <slight> DeZ_666, it is actually working, grub just ignores the fact its labelled as fat32, but then its not mounted afterwards so updates will be a problem
[01:33] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: ive tried that through automatix once it was all messed up
[01:33] <nbkr> Soup_, Yes it is possible to set up VNC Terminalserver - but not with Vino I guess.
[01:33] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: no, no automatix... automatix is evil blah blah blah
[01:33] <Paddy_EIRE> jrib, :D
[01:33] <jesSon_newbie> flannel tell me more
[01:33] <slight> DeZ_666, yeah i'm just not sure how tto change it. parted doesn't seem to support doing that
[01:33] <Soup_> nbkr how and what program?
[01:34] <cybervegan> pirate_hunter: ok, wait a mo, just checking the exact spell
[01:34] <DeZ_666> You could hex it
[01:34] <DeZ_666> :D
[01:34] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: lol so if i do it through synaptic it will go smoother and actually mount the hd every boot?
[01:34] <slight> *fears*
[01:34] <DeZ_666> Nothing wrong with hexing :/
[01:34] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: yes, it's worked fine for many others
[01:34] <slight> no nothing wrong with it, i just fear it ;0
[01:34] <Paddy_EIRE> is there a command to see how much of my system ram is in use available
[01:34] <DeZ_666> Heheh.
[01:34] <jrib> Paddy_EIRE: free -m
[01:34] <Pirate_Hunter> cybervegan: np ill wait I need to learn the commands anyway for another occassion
[01:35] <nbkr> Soup_, tightvnc server is need. It has to be configured to start via inetd. I don't have the howto available - the server is down.
[01:35] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: ok wil look at it but I want to do it manually, it will be last resort
[01:35] <DeZ_666> i wish pidgin worked on my puppy install
[01:35] <Soup_> ok anyone here own a real IMAC or mac?
[01:35] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: sounds backwards, but ok :)
[01:35] <askand> Im planning to change graphics card in my computer..from ati to nvidia...how do you recommend me to do? SHould I reinstall ubuntu?
[01:36] <DeZ_666> >:| What the helll
[01:36] <DeZ_666> How do i get 'msgfmt'?
[01:36] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: not really cause i wnat to learn how to do it, google just confuses me
[01:36] <cybervegan> pirate_hunter: open a command window and type:
[01:36] <cybervegan> pirate_hunter: sudo vi /etc/fstab
[01:37] <jrib> DeZ_666: install gettext
[01:37] <DeZ_666> How :D
[01:37] <ubuntu> a
[01:37] <Pirate_Hunter> cybervegan: we should go to a private room
[01:37] <jrib> DeZ_666: what are you doing?
[01:37] <askand> Im planning to change graphics card in my computer..from ati to nvidia...how do you recommend me to do? SHould I reinstall ubuntu?
[01:37] <DeZ_666> Compiling pidgin from source
[01:37] <ubuntu> eeeii
[01:37] <ubuntu> jejje
[01:37] <ubuntu> komerme un webo!!
[01:37] <cybervegan> pirate_hunter: you need to know the disk/partition number of your ntfs volume
[01:37] <jrib> !es | ubuntu
[01:37] <ubotu> ubuntu: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:37] <cybervegan> pirate_hunter: make a new line like this:
[01:38] <jrib> DeZ_666: do this:  sudo apt-get build-dep gaim    note that there are pidgin packages floating around at places like getdeb.net
[01:38] <DeZ_666> Lol
[01:38] <DeZ_666> :?
[01:38] <DeZ_666> is 15gb too small for a ubuntu part?
[01:38] <cybervegan> pirate_hunter: /dev/hdb1 /media/sda1     ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[01:38] <PriceChild> DeZ_666, why are you building pidgin?
[01:38] <jrib> DeZ_666: nope
[01:38] <DeZ_666> Because i /want/ to.
[01:39] <PriceChild> DeZ_666, what feature from pidgin do you need that is not in gaim?
[01:39] <PriceChild> !highno | DeZ_666
[01:39] <ubotu> DeZ_666: A higher version number does not mean that it's better. Especially with packages such as the linux kernel. The packages in the Ubuntu repositories are stable and will work fine. You should have a better reason than "newer" when considering compiling from source or using 3rd party repos.
[01:39] <DeZ_666> Dont do that.
[01:39] <DeZ_666> I have a reason for my reason
[01:39] <DeZ_666> you just didnt ask
[01:40] <DeZ_666> :D Yay its compiling
[01:41] <[swb] > anyone have any ideas why my Windows Partition would suddenly stop booting, grub hangs at "Starting up..."
[01:41] <DeZ_666> wrong partition/drive?
[01:41] <cybervegan> [swb]  have you had any windows updates recently?
[01:41] <DeZ_666> I think ubuntu killed my GRUB
[01:41] <DeZ_666> need to go reinstall it
[01:41] <[swb] > I moved it with gparted, after doing that it worked fine and I played game sin it for 5 hours or so, but after I rebooted and went into ubuntu again, it has not worked since
[01:42] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: i think Cybervegan is gone, could you teach me to mount a ntfs partition from scratch and give user priveledge
[01:42] <[swb] > cybervegan, nah, but I did install C&C3
[01:42] <Seveas> !ntfs | Pirate_Hunter

[01:42] <askand> Is there a place where I can check if mmy graphicscard is well supported bu ubuntu?
[01:42] <jesSon_newbie> im studying phyton programming and their file extension is .py , my question is can i run them on ubuntu terminal directly?? can you give me a example command to execute a .py file if its located inside my home directory let say the program file name is hello.py how do i run that on linux terminal???
[01:42] <DeZ_666> Does ubuntu have pmount?
[01:42] <jesSon_newbie> im studying phyton programming and their file extension is .py , my question is can i run them on ubuntu terminal directly?? can you give me a example command to execute a .py file if its located inside my home directory let say the program file name is hello.py how do i run that on linux terminal???
[01:42] <[swb] > ntfstools its ace btw
[01:42] <Seveas> DeZ_666, pmount is deprecated
[01:42] <DeZ_666> I like it.
[01:42] <[swb] > jesSon_newbie,
[01:42] <Pirate_Hunter> Seveas: i wish to learn how to do it manually but google is so confusing
[01:42] <CokeNCode>  /quit
[01:42] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: just use ntfsconfig, see !fstab if you really want to do it manually
[01:42] <jesSon_newbie> ?
[01:43] <slight> !ntfs3g
[01:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs3g - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:43] <Seveas> Pirate_Hunter, read the manpage for mount then
[01:43] <DeZ_666> Furthermore, depreciated by what
[01:43] <trakie> hey i had a recent update and it killed my xorg, the only way i can start ubuntu now is going to the older version listed on GRUB - any ideas?
[01:43] <slight> !ntfs-3g
[01:43] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:43] <[swb] > make sure the first line is #!/usr/bin/python or whatever the path to you python is
[01:43] <[swb] > find out by doing which python
[01:43] <cybervegan> jessn_newbie: python hello.py
[01:43] <[swb] > then do chmod a+x whatever.py
[01:43] <Seveas> DeZ_666, deprecated by proper udev rules
[01:43] <[swb] > then you can do ./whatever.py
[01:43] <[swb] > or double click it from the desktop
[01:43] <DeZ_666> ..?
[01:44] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: or see the bottom of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G
[01:44] <DeZ_666> Seveas: I dont understand.
[01:44] <seiya-off> Salut tout le monde!!
[01:44] <cybervegan> no need to chmod python script unless you want to run it without explicitly typing python ....
[01:44] <jesSon_newbie> just that python hello.py???
[01:44] <Seveas> !fr | seiya-off
[01:44] <ubotu> seiya-off: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[01:44] <[swb] > jesSon_newbie, or you could do that? if you want to invoke it with python directly
[01:44] <seiya-off> ok merci
[01:44] <TheRandom> is Vmware server free?
[01:44] <DeZ_666> Seveas: Please explain..?
[01:44] <cybervegan> jesson_newbie: yes (but you need to be in the same directory as hello.py)
[01:44] <jesSon_newbie> i dont have to write the location of directory like in dos terminal??
[01:45] <kagemaro> TheRandom - Yes, but it isn't open source
[01:45] <[swb] > so can anyone give me any tips on grub no longer booting windows?
[01:45] <TheRandom> kagemaro, why is it asking me for a serial key then
[01:45] <jesSon_newbie> can u give me a complete example of command
[01:45] <kagemaro> TheRandom - You can get a serial key free at www.vmware.com
[01:45] <TheRandom> danke
[01:45] <cybervegan> jesson_... no not unless you are in a different directory
[01:45] <Pirate_Hunter> once i install ntfs do i restart or what? I guess im going to have to learn how to mount manually some other time
[01:45] <kagemaro> TheRandom - Its just to prove you agreed to their terms and conditions
[01:45] <[swb] > the ntfs partittion is on /dev/hda3 and my grub is set with hd(0,2)
[01:46] <[swb] > which I think is right
[01:46] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: after you install ntfsconfig you run it so it can configure your partitions
[01:46] <cybervegan> gotta go now, kids need feeding
[01:46] <DeZ_666> [swb] , how are you installing/configuring grub
[01:46] <jesSon_newbie> in xp i had to dl the phyton interpreter how bout in ubuntu does it have a built in intrepreter??
[01:46] <[swb] > DeZ_666, well I had it configured ages ago
[01:46] <[swb] > by manually editing menu.lst
[01:46] <kagemaro> jesSon - 'python' is the built in interpreter
[01:46] <Seveas> jesSon_newbie, the python interpreter is installed by default
[01:46] <DeZ_666> Ah
[01:46] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib: kk, while im here what are the advantages of using kde instead of gnome through feisty
[01:46] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - /usr/bin/python
[01:46] <[swb] > then when I resiezed the partition I changed it from hda2 to hda3
[01:47] <Seveas> jesSon_newbie, many things in Ubuntu are written in python
[01:47] <[swb] > and changed grub accordingly
[01:47] <jesSon_newbie> so i just type pyton hello.py ???
[01:47] <[swb] > and have run grub-install
[01:47] <kagemaro> python*
[01:47] <Seveas> jesSon_newbie, yup
[01:47] <DeZ_666> Eh
[01:47] <jesSon_newbie> no need to put the location like do i had to type cd home
[01:47] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - if you spell it wrong, it may not work
[01:47] <Mthed> Does anyone know why i can't find arial.ttf after installing ms corefonts?
[01:47] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: it's subjective, but generally kde has more (too many?) configuration options
[01:47] <brownie17> hi guys, i'm trying to create a virtualbox of windows XP on ubuntu, using the following guide "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo"
[01:47] <DeZ_666> well, id help you more but id end up looking more noob than i already am
[01:47] <Seveas> Mthed, /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/arial.ttf
[01:48] <trakie> hey i had a recent update and it killed my xorg, the only way i can start ubuntu now is going to the older version listed on GRUB - any ideas?
[01:48] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - If you are in the same directory as the .py file, you do not need to specify the location of python
[01:48] <jesSon_newbie> how bout sudo hello.py ?? is that wrong ?
[01:48] <jrib> brownie17: note that vmware, virtualbox, and qemu are different things
[01:48] <boubbin> !sounds
[01:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sounds - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:48] <boubbin> !sound
[01:48] <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). 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
[01:48] <brownie17> problem is, when i type "qemu -localtime -cdrom /dev/cdrom -m 384 -boot d windows.img" i get this output "qemu: could not open hard disk image '/dev/cdrom'"
[01:48] <jesSon_newbie> wat if im not in the same dir?? give exmple please
[01:48] <Pirate_Hunter> what are the advantages of kde through ubuntu instead of gnome
[01:48] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - That doesn't tell the operating system what to open the script with
[01:48] <brownie17> jrib, sorry, i definately mean qemu
[01:49] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - if the script is in, for example, /home/user/hello.py, then you can either cd /home/user and run 'python hello.py' or run 'python /home/user/hello.py'
[01:49] <jrib> brownie17: is your windows xp cdrom in the drive?
[01:49] <brownie17> jrib, yes. wait it might be in the wrong drive. i'll try the other drive
[01:49] <Pirate_Hunter> anyone heer know the advantages of kde as I wish to install it?
[01:49] <jesSon_newbie> exactly thats wat im asking
[01:49] <DeZ_666> Yay, pidgin is done
[01:49] <jesSon_newbie> like in dos
[01:49] <jesSon_newbie> ryt
[01:49] <kagemaro> Pirate_Hunter - KDE is pretty! :3
[01:49] <DeZ_666> Can someone answer a pretty newb question
[01:50] <DeZ_666> will pidgin appear on my menu :D
[01:50] <DeZ_666> automatically, that is
[01:50] <ColinE> it should
[01:50] <brownie17> jrib, you're a genius, thankyou. it's working now
[01:50] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - Yes, that's the answer, you dont have to tell ubuntu where python is, but you DO have to tell it where the script to execute is
[01:50] <Pirate_Hunter> kagemaro: lol im guessing system hog? could you explain if it has any advantage at all
[01:50] <chaad> kagemaro, thanks i have my pidgin fine now :)
[01:50] <kagemaro> DeZ_666 - mine always has
[01:50] <Seveas> DeZ_666, depends on how you built/installed it
[01:50] <jesSon_newbie> where should i start reading the python programming or C++ ?? i want to learn how to write program which is better?
[01:51] <kagemaro> Pirate_Hunter - It's not as bad as it used to be, system wise, but most of the advantages are purely aesthetic
[01:51] <brownie17> jrib, this is exciting
[01:51] <DeZ_666> uh
[01:51] <kagemaro> Pirate_Hunter - It is just plain better looking than gnome
[01:51] <DeZ_666> i compiled it from source
[01:51] <DeZ_666> :D
[01:51] <Seveas> DeZ_666, sure, but did you build a package or just the binary?
[01:51] <Pirate_Hunter> kagemaro: see np I was thinking it was something that helped ubuntu I dont need anything that just occupies space
[01:51] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - I'd look it up on Google, the official manual might be a good start
[01:51] <DeZ_666> Uhm
[01:51] <DeZ_666> how do i tell?
[01:51] <jesSon_newbie> official manual is??
[01:52] <jesSon_newbie> phyton or c++ which is easier ?
[01:52] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - http://www.python.org/doc/
[01:52] <Seveas> why don't you learn how to build things before ruining your system with experiments? :)
[01:52] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - They are made for totally different things
[01:52] <DeZ_666> Seveas
[01:52] <DeZ_666> my puppy livecd is good for at least one thing
[01:52] <jesSon_newbie> well my goal is to write a bot for chatting can python do that??
[01:52] <DeZ_666> gparted :)
[01:52] <Seveas> jesSon_newbie, python is easier to pick up, install the diveintopython book for a nice introduction
[01:52] <DeZ_666> im just foolin around ;)
[01:53] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - Yes, but I'd recommend perl or php might be better at it'
[01:53] <Seveas> jesSon_newbie, sure, ubotu is an irc bot written in python :)
[01:53] <Seveas> kagemaro, ROFL... trying to get a newbie to go for perl :)
[01:53] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - A friend of mine wrote full IRC services in php :P
[01:53] <jesSon_newbie> isnt php a server side programming? i want program that run like normal .exe file
[01:54] <TheRandom> kagemaro, I registered, have my keys, but 'Keys do not match licenses'
[01:54] <Seveas> jesSon_newbie, php can be a normal language as well
[01:54] <[swb] > jesSon_newbie, python is good, fun easy to learn and powerful
[01:54] <Seveas> TheRandom, then contact vmware support.
[01:54] <Pirate_Hunter> how come pidgin is not in synaptic? I knew something was missing when i installed Feisty especially since i was forced to use gaim for IRC
[01:54] <DeZ_666> you can run php as cli, right
[01:54] <kagemaro> TheRandom - are you sure you downloaded vmware server?
[01:54] <[swb] > but it wont run things as quickly as C++
[01:54] <Pirate_Hunter> anyway how do I install pidgin?
[01:54] <kagemaro> TheRandom - and not workstation or something?
[01:54] <TheRandom> kagemaro, VMware Server Console
[01:54] <TheRandom> It's whats running
[01:54] <jesSon_newbie> can i make dos based chat program using php ?? cuz i have php book also?
[01:54] <TheRandom> And I've set up a Virtual Machine
[01:54] <Seveas> Pirate_Hunter, apt-get install pidgin
[01:54] <niekie> uit
[01:55] <niekie> /quit
[01:55] <niekie> Err..
[01:55] <kagemaro> TheRandom - does it work?
[01:55] <[swb] > jesSon_newbie, python would be better for that
[01:55] <[swb] > and do you mean DOS? or command line on linux?
[01:55] <TheRandom> kagemaro, it requires a code.
[01:55] <Pirate_Hunter> Seveas: lol thanx u make this sound so easy
[01:55] <TheRandom> I've set the virtual pc up, but its asking for a serial code,
[01:55] <TheRandom> i enter the one form the website
[01:55] <TheRandom> with my name and company name
[01:55] <jesSon_newbie> wat about C++ wat can i do on that language ?
[01:55] <TheRandom> and it tells me The serial number entered did not match any licenses
[01:55] <etotheipi> AFAIK apt calls pidgin by gaim still
[01:55] <DeZ_666> jesSon_newbie, when you're talking about console applications, say console application or CLI
[01:55] <Seveas> jesSon_newbie, anything you want... just like with python
[01:55] <[swb] > same as pythong, probably a bit more, but there is alot more to learn
[01:56] <Seveas> pythong :D
[01:56] <[swb] > hur
[01:56] <DeZ_666> Lolz
[01:56] <kagemaro> http://register.vmware.com/content/registration.html - Did you go here TheRandom?
[01:56] <[swb] > jesSon_newbie, check out irssi
[01:56] <[swb] > or bitchx
[01:56] <TheRandom> Yes kagemaro
[01:56] <[swb] > sudo aptitude install irssi bitchx
[01:56] <kagemaro> TheRandom - and you filled out the same name and company name and reg code you got from there?
[01:57] <jesSon_newbie> ok so  the bottom line is that with phyton i can also write a program like this x-chat ryt??
[01:57] <[swb] > also for true eliteness, screen also
[01:57] <TheRandom> kagemaro, yes.
[01:57] <[swb] > jesSon_newbie, yes
[01:57] <Pirate_Hunter> Seveas: pidgin cannot be found, huh, what do i do now?
[01:57] <jesSon_newbie> wow
[01:57] <Seveas> Pirate_Hunter, use gaim :)
[01:57] <DeZ_666> right*
[01:57] <[swb] > in fact
[01:57] <[swb] > xchat is probalby quite alot python
[01:57] <Seveas> Pirate_Hunter, pidgin only exists in the devel version of Ubuntu
[01:57] <Seveas> [swb] , nope
[01:57] <jesSon_newbie> how about trojan can i make 1 also with using phyton ?
[01:57] <[swb] > Seveas, no?
[01:57] <Seveas> [swb] , xchat is pure C
[01:57] <DeZ_666> ..
[01:57] <kagemaro> Pirate_Hunter, try /usr/local/bin/pidgin
[01:57] <[swb] > hehe
[01:57] <Seveas> you can write python plugins for it though
[01:57] <[swb] > I just assumed it was a C base with the UI in python
[01:57] <DeZ_666> jesSon_newbie: http://tinyurl.com/2rfwr
[01:57] <[swb] > as more and more gnome programs are these days
[01:58] <[swb] > also the python scripting interface
[01:58] <kagemaro> jesSon_newbie - I don't think anyone here is going to help you write trojans
[01:58] <Pirate_Hunter> kagemaro: pidgin is not in synaptic so it wont download
[01:58] <jesSon_newbie> lol
[01:58] <Seveas> jesSon_newbie, if you want to be banned, continue like this.
[01:58] <Seveas> Pirate_Hunter, pidgin only exists in the devel version of Ubuntu <--
[01:58] <|FrOstiE|> lol jesSon_newbie
[01:58] <[swb] > haha
[01:58] <TheRandom> kagemaro, any ideas?
[01:58] <kagemaro> Pirate_Hunter - You can just install it from source
[01:58] <Pirate_Hunter> Seveas: u mean feisty doesnt have pidgin, am i right, damn
[01:59] <kagemaro> TheRandom - I'd contact VMWare support
[01:59] <kagemaro> TheRandom - or try registering again
[01:59] <Seveas> Pirate_Hunter, feisty has game. It's pretty much the same
[01:59] <[swb] > so grub... windows... someone must know
[01:59] <TheRandom> kagemaro, I've done it twicenow.
[01:59] <TheRandom> + space
[01:59] <predaeus> gaim
[01:59] <Pirate_Hunter> kagemaro: if i only knew how to work with tar.bz2
[01:59] <[swb] > I've seen this somewhere, anyone know what the map commands are used for in grub?
[01:59] <[swb] > map (hd0) (hd1) map (hd1) (hd0)
[01:59] <kagemaro> TheRandom - try #pidgin
[01:59] <Pirate_Hunter> Seveas: gaim is quite annoying but is doing the trick now
[01:59] <kagemaro> Sorry mistel
[01:59] <[swb] > kagemaro, on the command line tar -jxvf *.bz2
[01:59] <Seveas> [swb] , to fool stupid OS'es like windows into thinking they are on the first partition
[02:00] <[swb] > in the directory you donwloadedit to
[02:00] <kagemaro> Pirate_Hunter try #pidgin
[02:00] <predaeus> Pirate_Hunter, the gaim project was renamed to pidgin. in Feisty it still carries the name gaim, in gutsy it is called pidgin.
[02:00] <Seveas> Pirate_Hunter, pidgin is just as annoying :)
[02:00] <[swb] > hmm
[02:00] <TheRandom> kagemaro, what is pidgin?
[02:00] <mapp> pidgin is the new version of gaim i believe
[02:00] <[swb] > Seveas, first disk surely..?
[02:00] <kagemaro> TheRandom - If it were me, I'd contact VMWare support, they're pretty helpful from my experience
[02:00] <TheRandom> Righto
[02:00] <TheRandom> I think i'll do it later though
[02:00] <Pirate_Hunter> predaeus: there is an irc client im missing i never liked using gaim when i was on drapper
[02:00] <Seveas> [swb] , err, yeah :)
[02:01] <predaeus> Pirate_Hunter, try xchat.
[02:01] <TheRandom> my girlfriend is arriving in like, 20 minutes, and my room is a tip as i've spent all this morning trying to get ubuntu to install :P
[02:01] <kagemaro> TheRandom - http://www.vmware.com/support/phone_support.html
[02:01] <Pirate_Hunter> predaeus: thats the one
[02:01] <Kakeman> anyone with nvidia 8xxx + gutsy?
[02:01] <TheRandom> kagemaro, as said above, i'll store it and do it later :p

[02:05] <brownie17> Seveas, haha sorry.
[02:05] <damaltor_> quick question: where do i have to add programs i want to have started directly after each reboot?
[02:05] <TheRandom> O-o
[02:06] <TheRandom> a wha now
[02:06] <[swb] > damaltor, when you log into gnome?
[02:06] <Seveas> damaltor_, depends on when you want them started
[02:06] <TheRandom> anyway
[02:06] <TheRandom> bai
[02:06] <kagemaro> Come to #ubuntu-offtopic :P
[02:06] <mapp> err depends yea, could be init.d if just at boot
[02:06] <damaltor_> Seveas: after each reboot, no gui, only console system
[02:06] <Seveas> damaltor_, /etc/rc.local is good for things like that
[02:06] <brownie17> guys in the output in the terminal window for qemu, it says "Could not open '/dev/kqemu' - QEMU acceleration layer not activated"
[02:06] <brownie17> is this because i forgot to run it as root?
[02:07] <damaltor_> what does "rc" stand for?
[02:07] <_Johny> Guys. Ubuntu doesn't seem to install on the Acer 5920G laptop. Has anyone already found out?
[02:07] <Seveas> brownie17, no, that's because kqemu isn't there
[02:07] <mapp> Seveas, couldnt you use /etc/init./d for that?
[02:07] <pussfeller> hey people can someone tell me how to get the network applet wroking again? i tried manual mode and now i cant get back to roaming, my wireless netowrks thing isnt coming up
[02:07] <Seveas> mapp, /etc/rc.local is run by /etc/init.d/rc.local :)
[02:07] <mapp> ahh oke:)
[02:07] <mapp> thanks
[02:07] <damaltor_> _Johny: look at http://www.linux-laptop.net/
[02:07] <brownie17> Seveas, it should be, it used to be i think, darn it. any ideas what to do?
[02:07] <_Johny> damaltor: I will, thanks
[02:07] <pussfeller> _Johny: sometimes you have to pass boot parameters like NOACPI when you start the live dvd
[02:08] <[swb] > brb all, going to try fdisk /mbr with a windows CD
[02:08] <pussfeller> my hp is like that
[02:08] <mapp> what does NOACPI mean?
[02:08] <brownie17> "crw-rw---- 1 root root 10, 62 2007-09-02 21:39 /dev/kqemu"
[02:08] <brownie17> Seveas, see my last post
[02:08] <Seveas> brownie17, ah, then you must indeed run it as root :)
[02:08] <pussfeller> mapp: something to do with the initial power management, i think
[02:09] <brownie17> Seveas, thankyou. i'm currently in the middle of installing windows XP through it, and it's painfully slow :(
[02:09] <Seveas> mapp, needing that parameter means that the people who built your machine have violated the ACPI spec and using powermanagement things will break (on) your hardware
[02:09] <_Johny> pussfeller: Do you mean "skip" by saying "pass"?
[02:10] <mapp> ahhh
[02:10] <mapp> :)
[02:11] <pussfeller> no, i mean by adding them to the boot params _Johny
[02:11] <pussfeller> you have to hit f5 or f7 i think
[02:11] <_Johny> pussfeller: I see
[02:12] <mapp> oh
[02:12] <pussfeller> _Johny: i put how to get my HP laptop booting on http://toddtech.us
[02:12] <pussfeller> yours is liekely different
[02:12] <pussfeller> but it will show you an example
[02:12] <_Johny> on linux laptop. net there seems to be one succesfull install, No traces of Ubuntu
[02:15] <A[D] minS> can anyone please help me to remove postfix " http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36025/ "
[02:16] <Seveas> A[D] minS, I think you need to configure it first, sudo dpkg --configure postfix
[02:16] <musically_ut> Can anyone tell me possible reasons how Ctrl-Alt-{Function keys} stop switching tty's? They work upto the login screen but after logging in, they stop working. I am clueless as to why this is.
[02:16] <fire26> re
[02:17] <_Johny> pussfeller: I'll take a look, thanks :)
[02:17] <A[D] minS> Seveas: This is the output http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36027/
[02:17] <_Johny> Is there any other site regarding installing Ubuntu on laptops?
[02:18] <Seveas> A[D] minS, hmm, looks like it's a bit broken
[02:18] <Seveas> A[D] minS, sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/postfix*.deb
[02:18] <NoRes> Hi. I've booted up on the install CD, but I can't get the screen to display at anything more than 600x480. And consequently, the install program won't display properly.

[02:20] <predaeus> Soup_, run an ssh server on your home machine.
[02:20] <Soup_> link?
[02:20] <Soup_> is it in repository?
[02:21] <predaeus> Soup_, yes, look for ssh, I think it is a meta package for openssh, but better double check.
[02:21] <Seveas> predaeus, it is
[02:21] <west> Ubuntu Server Edition should have apache installed right? cause i can't find apache on my server

[02:27] <kkfoxcc> let me chick
[02:27] <Jack_Sparrow> N3oXid: Not appreciated
[02:27] <N3oXid> Take a look at the previous links
[02:27] <N3oXid> Jack_Sparrow : sorry
[02:27] <Seveas> west, installing packages on ubuntu requires an internet connection. So if you need to install something, you're going to have to switch anyway
[02:28] <JRDezine> hey hey
[02:28] <west> Seveas: can you help me, if i give you access to server?
[02:29] <kkfoxcc> think for all help me
[02:29] <kkfoxcc> it is work
[02:29] <NoRes> well thanks for nothing guys. I'm going back to windows.
[02:29] <predaeus> jc-denton, look for sensors, lm-sensors, gsensors or something like that, there should be a panel applet in gnome that displays cpu temp. if it does not work out of the box then look for !sensors.
[02:29] <chaad> NoRes, lol
[02:29] <Seveas> west, if I didn't have to go in 3 minutes I could :)
[02:29] <brownie17> NoRes, ooooh, burn. no need to be mean. we tried to help but if we couldn't there's no need to be rude

[02:30] <Ar-Pharazon> Hello, I have a problem with ubuntu feisty running slower (much slower) than I think it should. I think it might be trying to "save" RAM by reading from HDD all the time... This laptop handled Vista Home Premium fine (for the first week hehe) so maybe there are any performance related settings I forgot to set right?
[02:30] <jc-denton> i don't have gnome installed
[02:30] <Seveas> west, I'll be back in 20 minutes so if your problem isn't solved by then just poke me
[02:30] <brownie17> jc-denton, do i sense a deus ex nerd?
[02:30] <predaeus> jc-denton, sensors

[02:32] <Seta-San> i was wondering. is there an easy way to update your packages in the server edition?

[02:33] <Seta-San> no need for a keyboard or moniter hooked to the server :P

[02:41] <TheRandom> Its not to do with the hd!
[02:41] <MasterOfDisaster> CompJunki: don't feed the trolls
[02:41] <TheRandom> Its to do with the ubuntu installer
[02:41] <CompJunki> hehehe
[02:41] <CompJunki> im the bad
[02:41] <CompJunki> ?
[02:41] <DeZ_666> Ok?

[02:42] <christian_> Some of my games cannot identify my extra mousebuttons ( mb4 & 5 ), does this have to do with ubuntu or the game?
[02:42] <DeZ_666> cos i already had set up a ext3 part on my drive
[02:42] <Jowi> Soup_, sorry? the link ubotu gave tell you how to set up freenx
[02:42] <TheRandom> DeZ_666, I did that
[02:42] <CompJunki> Can i ask why we cant swear in a channel #?
[02:42] <linuxwho> nvidia mcp61 chipset, any drivers that work for the chipset?
[02:42] <TheRandom> Now I have to select it
[02:42] <MasterOfDisaster> Ubuntu: yes, imo it sucks - get yourself pidgin
[02:42] <DeZ_666> So, select it then
[02:42] <jrib> frost0: once you ssh in, run "screen", then run your programs.  When you disconnect, screen will stay running and you can reattach it later if you want

[02:43] <frost0> jrib, okay..but is there a command like ctrl -r ? ....they prefer i use the same ones, so we all know what is going on.
[02:43] <Jowi> Soup_, yes. freenx/nomachine clients exist for windows
[02:43] <CompJunki> you know you love me
[02:43] <PriceChild> MasterOfDisaster, No it isn't. Gaim is installed by default on ubutnu wheras pidgin isn't. Please don't suggest Pidgin in this channel.
[02:43] <CompJunki> :D

[02:44] <jrib> frost0: 'screen' starts you off, take a look at the intro docs that ubotu linked you to
[02:44] <PriceChild> DeZ_666, yes, but pidgin isn't in ubuntu so please don't suggest it as gaim works just as well.
[02:44] <DeZ_666> No it doesnt work just as well.

Then I accidentally wiped the HDD, and installed ubuntu again.

[02:46] <Esteth> How can i make a window overlap my gnome-panel?
[02:46] <raynerd> Guys, I`m trying to slightly edit a live CD all I want to do it totally remove the "install" function from the CD. I`m using it in schools and don`t want the kids to accidently install it. I have been told to run the CD live, delete the install desktop icon and menu install item, copy a new image of the CD and then convert to iso, burn from their. I can run the live CD and delete icons, but how do you copy an image of the CD and
[02:46] <raynerd> convert to iso? help appreciated.
[02:46] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterOfDsaster: I have 1 GB of RAM, 200 at most is used out of that, 2 GB of swap is empty, yet ubuntu still keeps reading from HD all the time.
[02:46] <Jowi> !hebrew

[02:46] <ubotu> Ubuntu: please see above
[02:46] <jc-denton> wow
[02:46] <jc-denton> it works
[02:46] <Ubuntu> !he | ubuntu
[02:46] <Ubuntu> ?
[02:46] <jc-denton> cool
[02:46] <croSmiley> how can i run a command using cron with root privileges?
[02:46] <jrib> Ubuntu: read what ubotu said
[02:46] <PriceChild> Ubuntu, /join #ubuntu-il
[02:46] <Ubuntu> Wtf!? How i can do it?
[02:46] <drama1981> anybody know much about networking? i have a windows box and a linux box that i want to be able to move/share files/folerds between. no router just a crossover cable. anybody know how to do this. i use ubuntu studio 7.04 and winxp
[02:46] <AndrewB> !hebrew > Ubuntu
[02:46] <frost0> jrib, so i type screen to open up a "virtual window" then i run my commands and exit...then to pull it back up i use the screen -r .....correct ?
[02:46] <jc-denton> predaeus: sensors wants to load kernel modules and things
[02:46] <jc-denton> i don't need this
[02:46] <jrib> croSmiley: put it in root's crontab
[02:47] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterOfDsaster: There's about 0.3 to 2 second delay for most operations, and it may not sound like a lot but when everything happens half a second late it gets kind of annoying.
[02:47] <jc-denton> i just want to know the cpu temperature
[02:47] <jrib> frost0: exactly
[02:47] <MasterOfDisaster> PriceChild: ok - I'll be shut up - but note that this is IMHO a rather stupid course of action, better push the application not to be named into the repo...
[02:47] <Ubuntu> Great in Empty
[02:47] <PriceChild> jc-denton, sensors aren't accurate
[02:47] <Ubuntu> *is
[02:47] <frost0> jrib, cool
[02:47] <jc-denton> what to use then
[02:47] <MasterOfDisaster> PriceChild: or link to non-canonical ones.
[02:47] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterOfDsaster: Plus boot takes over a minute, I'm not sure why. I used to boot in 20 seconds, even with this installation about 3 days ago.
[02:47] <jc-denton> i use hddtemp for the hd
[02:47] <Ubuntu> What you have with Jirb!?
[02:47] <jc-denton> what for the cpu?
[02:47] <croSmiley> jrib: you are right! thanks a lot
[02:47] <PriceChild> jc-denton, why do you want ot?
[02:47] <PriceChild> !offtopic > MasterOfDisaster
[02:47] <frost0> jrib, also if you don't mind another question...have you ever heard of xpde?
[02:47] <DeZ_666> Can anyone help me with grub and ubuntu?
[02:47] <Ubuntu> yup what the problem?
[02:47] <jc-denton> PriceChild: knowing the temperature of the cpu
[02:48] <brownie17> !ask | DeZ_666
[02:48] <ubotu> DeZ_666: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:48] <DeZ_666> -.-
[02:48] <jrib> frost0: heard of it, looked at it, concluded it would be a pain
[02:48] <Ubuntu> ok -_-
[02:48] <raynerd> I realise that was long question, if anyone can help me edit a live CD for educational perposes, i`d greatly appreciate it! I want to introduce my students to open source and linux.
[02:48] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterOfDsaster: So maybe I've accidentally enabled some super economical memory use feature or slowed my computer down somehow? I'm really quite confused.
[02:48] <DeZ_666> that was my question
[02:48] <PriceChild> jc-denton, but why? Because the actual readouts of sensors in it aren't really accurate... they can show trends or extremes etc. but that's about it
[02:48] <Ubuntu> grub is not my the best thing i know i try to help
[02:48] <raynerd> please pm if you can help with a simple live cd edit.
[02:48] <frost0> jrib, i'm just trying to make linux look and feel like a windows box for a relative who is struggling with migrating :(
[02:48] <jc-denton> PriceChild: to see if it's ok
[02:48] <Seta-San> hey. can someone help me?
[02:48] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: verify that DMA is enabled (hdparm -I /dev/hdX as root)
[02:48] <DeZ_666> i didnt ask 'if i ask for someone to help me will they help me'
[02:48] <brownie17> raynerd, you're a teacher or a student trying to bypass filters and play games? :P
[02:49] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: are you using a custom kernel?
[02:49] <jc-denton> PriceChild: i know that they are not accurate
[02:49] <chaad> DeZ_666, lol
[02:49] <DeZ_666> :/
[02:49] <jc-denton> cpuinfo says nothing about the temp
[02:49] <raynerd> no, i am most defo a teacher! honest. I just want to delete the install option off a live CD
[02:49] <Esteth> How do i make a window overlap my gnome-pannel? i want the window decorations off the top of the screen, so i get the "application area" just touching the top of the monitor
[02:49] <Ubuntu> -_-
[02:49] <Ubuntu> yo
[02:49] <raynerd> nothing even potentially harmful if i was a student.
[02:49] <akf3478> Ar-Pharazon: hard disk DMA, or grapics acceleration
[02:49] <MasterOfDisaster> PriceChild: got it, I will shut my trap.
[02:49] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterOfDisaster: If I have no idea that means no, right?
[02:50] <brownie17> raynerd, :P i was just kidding. i don't know how to help you. good luck finding out and thankyou for making the internet world a better place by teaching children that windows isn't the be all and end all
[02:50] <Slart> is there a way to find out which drive my computer is booting from? (I mean where my mbr is located.. not the system drive)
[02:50] <DeZ_666> Ok so i originally had grub on my sda1
[02:50] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: join me in a query?
[02:50] <DeZ_666> and when i installed ubuntu
[02:50] <PriceChild> jc-denton, If they aren't ok then it'll shut down. sudo apt-get install lm-sensors, then run sensors-detect as sudo, and finally run "sensors" to see
[02:50] <jrib> frost0: I think GNOME looks similar enough (you have windows and a menu to open your programs).  It's probably a bad idea to make them *look* the same same since they are still different.  I would just try to help him through the differences.  The only one I can think of taht might be confusing to a new user is package management
[02:50] <DeZ_666> it auto-installed grub to sda3
[02:50] <DeZ_666> and now i moved grub back to sda1
[02:50] <jc-denton> PriceChild: sensors-detect found some things
[02:51] <jc-denton> but sensors then sayd No sensors found!
[02:51] <frost0> jrib, if i were to try xpde is it easy to revert back to kde?
[02:51] <DeZ_666> but with the same grub info as was in sda3's install of grub
[02:51] <frost0> jrib, or choose which interface at kdm?
[02:51] <DeZ_666> ubuntu wont boot on the sda1's grub
[02:51] <jc-denton> can't i see that somewhere in proc
[02:51] <jrib> frost0: i never successfully installed it
[02:51] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterOfDisaster: How do I find out if I am?
[02:51] <DeZ_666> because of a certain flag
[02:51] <jc-denton> w/o this sensors crap
[02:51] <Esteth> Frost0: You could remove the top gnome-pannel and take all the stuff to the bottom. Install an XP-ish metacity theme, and an icon pack
[02:51] <croSmiley> jrib: if i put it in roots crontab will it run when im not logged as root?
[02:51] <raynerd> brownie17: many thanks...hey I am 24 and been forced Windows for 14 years! I finally discovered open source and linux this holiday and want to show the kids asapo!
[02:51] <DeZ_666> can anyone help me with this?
[02:51] <jrib> croSmiley: yep
[02:51] <wibble> raynard: a quick google found this: http://www.asylumnation.com/blogs/amerikanjunkie/post-2775.html
[02:51] <PriceChild> jc-denton, not that I know of.
[02:52] <raynerd> I just need help as I cant afford to see them install "accedently" ubuntu over windows, I`d get killed!
[02:52] <jc-denton> hrmm
[02:52] <brownie17> raynerd, i'm 17 and i've been using linux for about 2 years. sooo much better
[02:52] <frost0> Esteth, uh i have kde......i  guess i'm stuck..
[02:52] <DeZ_666> Anyone bother reading what i said ;)
[02:52] <Stefan_> Hi all!
[02:52] <DeZ_666> Hello
[02:52] <PriceChild> DeZ_666, hello there
[02:52] <wibble> raynerd: a quick google found this : http://www.asylumnation.com/blogs/amerikanjunkie/post-2775.html
[02:53] <raynerd> brownie17: well yes, i`m getting that way. Although it is different, but then i`m having to teach myself
[02:53] <PriceChild> DeZ_666, do you have a partition marked as bootable?
[02:53] <Esteth> frost0: No matter, KDE is more of a windows-like environment anyway. I'm sure kde-look.org has themes for it, and you can change the size of the bottom bar, as far as i know
[02:53] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: open a terminal, and type 'sudo hdparm -I /dev/sda | grep DMA'<ENTER>, then enter your password.
[02:53] <DeZ_666> Yes? sda1?
[02:53] <DeZ_666> of course
[02:53] <Ubuntu> some one can help me?
[02:53] <PriceChild> DeZ_666, so could you explain the problem?
[02:53] <PriceChild> Ubuntu, ask your question.
[02:53] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: or hda, whatever your HDD is.
[02:53] <Ubuntu> i have ova551 camera and i can't install it
[02:53] <DeZ_666> So, when i try booting to ubuntu with the regular flags on the grub entry
[02:53] <Ubuntu> someone?
[02:53] <DeZ_666> it will say 'file not found'
[02:53] <Ubuntu> i have ova551 camera and i can't install it
[02:53] <Ubuntu> someone?
[02:54] <DeZ_666> but theres one flag i remove, and it works fine
[02:54] <jrib> Ubuntu: is it a digital camera or webcam?
[02:54] <DeZ_666> lemme find the flag..
[02:54] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: if you get a line like this: "DMA: sdma0 sdma1 sdma2 mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 udma2 udma3 udma4 *udma5", DMA is enabled.
[02:54] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterOfDisaster:  Here's the output: DMA: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 udma2 udma3 udma4 *udma5
[02:54] <raynerd> wibble: thanks but i`ve been trying this for days and now really need someone who has done it to guide me through the process.
[02:54] <jc-denton> if the temperature of the hd is rather low, can i conclude then that the cpu temperature is also low
[02:54] <Ubuntu> webcam
[02:54] <jc-denton> ?
[02:54] <jrib> !webcam > Ubuntu (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:54] <DeZ_666> Here it is
[02:54] <PriceChild> jc-denton, no
[02:54] <DeZ_666> if i remove 'splash' in the grub entry
[02:54] <DeZ_666> it boots fine
[02:54] <DeZ_666> but with it, it will say 'file not found'
[02:54] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: excellent. Is the computer in question a laptop?
[02:54] <DeZ_666> and return me to grub
[02:54] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: Yes.
[02:55] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: Hp dv2000.
[02:55] <Stefan_> I installed apache,php,mysql and so on - but i have an nooby question :> where can i find the htdocs dir where i have to input all files that i want to see on my localhost? :D
[02:55] <syntax_> hi
[02:55] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: I have an nvidia card if it's relevant.
[02:55] <DeZ_666> in the apache folder
[02:55] <syntax_> I just install ubuntu:)
[02:55] <DeZ_666> :>
[02:55] <harris> hi can anyone help me set up apache on ubuntu 7.04 server ?
[02:55] <Stefan_> Welcome @syntax ^
[02:55] <syntax_> it better then fedora
[02:55] <jrib> !apache > harris (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:56] <jc-denton> harris: apt-get instal apache2
[02:56] <akf3478> Ar-Pharazon: MasterOfDisaster: check the nvidia graphics driver is installed, could be lack of graphics acceleration
[02:56] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: perhaps you enabled some kind of powersaving behaviour in your BIOS/with a HP provided application in Vista per accident?
[02:56] <syntax_> Does anyone know what the package name to gvim?
[02:56] <Stefan_> @DeZ_666 directly in the dir named apache2 ?!?!?!
[02:56] <MasterOfDisaster> akf3478: wouldn't explain the overall poor performance
[02:56] <croSmiley> if im logged as root, can i run a command as a user?
[02:56] <jrib> Stefan_: /var/www ?
[02:56] <DeZ_666> Stefan_: You can always go to Places->Seach
[02:56] <harris> jc-denton, i installed it, i just can't get it to find the page i put in local host
[02:56] <jrib> croSmiley: su -c
[02:57] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: If I did then the setting somehow survived the whole partition table being wiped.
[02:57] <syntax_> if i am righ tit is call Vim-x11
[02:57] <jrib> syntax_: vim-full will get you it
[02:57] <Stefan_> When i search for "htdocs" no results.. :-( @jrib where can i find /var/www? Can you explain it from /home/ out? ^^ iam completely new to linux.
[02:57] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: I have an "nvidia accelerated graphics driver" that is in use.
[02:57] <syntax_> thanks
[02:58] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: might have, some applications from the vendors are able to modify bios settings.
[02:58] <akf3478> Ar-Pharazon: ok, also check there is a swap partition and its size
[02:58] <DeZ_666> Stefan_: places->computer->filesystem->var
[02:58] <DeZ_666> i believe
[02:59] <DeZ_666> jesus @_@
[02:59] <Stefan_> Ahhh! Thanks!!! I searched hours - never thought it would be there lol!!! Thanks 1000 times! :D
[02:59] <jrib> Stefan_: /var/www is the folder "www" inside the folder "var" inside the folder /
[02:59] <Stormx2> Where?!
[02:59] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: I don't remember changing anything besides maybe standby time or something in Vista. The laptop does make the screen dimmer (and other things I suppose) when it's unplugged.
[02:59] <Pirate_Hunter> how do i access kde wizard again?
[02:59] <DeZ_666> Stefan_: Welcome ^O^ I am a linux nub as well
[02:59] <jrib> Stefan_: everything starts from /
[02:59] <Stefan_> Love you all ^
[02:59] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: I have 2 GB swap partition, 0 bytes of it used.
[02:59] <west`> what is the command to install openssh?
[02:59] <syntax_> you sure it is vim-full for the fornt-end to vim
[02:59] <jrib> west`: sudo aptitude install openssh-server
[02:59] <jrib> !ssh > west` (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:00] <nomen> server irc.spnet.net
[03:00] <jrib> syntax_: vim-full will give you gvim
[03:00] <Ubuntu> in need to install ov511
[03:00] <syntax_> Sorry i new
[03:00] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: sorry, that's the only thing I can think of if you have not been tampering with your Ubuntu installation, since you terminated vista.
[03:00] <Ubuntu> in need to install ov511
[03:00] <DeZ_666> Im gonna install another distro and go to bed ^O^
[03:00] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: Is your power supply plugged in?
[03:00] <jrib> syntax_: take a look at the description with: apt-cache show vim-full
[03:00] <Pirate_Hunter> how do i access kde wizard again?
[03:00] <frost0> jrib, i found a tutorial on how to install xpde on ubuntu....but, will i be able to choose between kde and xpde on the login screen?
[03:01] <frost0> jrib, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/xpde
[03:01] <DeZ_666> Crap
[03:01] <DeZ_666> wheres gparted again
[03:01] <Stormx2> !ohmy | DeZ_666
[03:01] <ubotu> DeZ_666: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:01] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: Yes. Would recompiling synaptic, installing-reinstalling netbeans and the jdk or mucking around with my theme's gtkrc file constitute tampering?
[03:01] <DeZ_666> in ubuntu
[03:01] <jrib> frost0: no idea what xpde does.  You might need to create a .desktop file for xpde in /usr/share/xsessions/
[03:01] <DeZ_666> Stormx2: whatd i say?
[03:01] <Stormx2> DeZ_666: Uh... open a terminal and run "gparted"?
[03:01] <Stormx2> DeZ_666: <DeZ_666> Crap
[03:01] <DeZ_666> ..
[03:01] <DeZ_666> oh no..
[03:01] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: guess not.
[03:01] <frost0> jrib, if you take a look at the short tutorial...it says nothing about that :(

[03:02] <jrib> frost0: the script seems to create it
[03:02] <frost0> jrib, but my only concern is switching between the two
[03:02] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: verify that your power supply is plugged in and working, and check your power savings BIOS settings. Apart from that, I'm clueless, sorry.
[03:02] <frost0> jrib, if that is possible i'm going to try it :)
[03:03] <frost0> jrib, maybe they would try it..
[03:03] <syntax_> i try that and it not working.
[03:03] <sindile_> how do you enable more than two workspaces
[03:03] <ingvar> hi everybody
[03:03] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: you do not use a custom compiled kernel, right?
[03:03] <frost0> jrib, i'm going for it :)
[03:03] <jrib> sindile_: right click on the workspace switcher applet and go to "preferences"
[03:03] <frost0> jrib, what have i got to lose ? :)
[03:04] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: So HPs power saving thing... Things is, when I had dual boot I accidentally booted into the recovery partition, which went into a setup wizard and asked me to plug the computer in. I clicked cancel, only the next time I tried to boot it didn't, and when I ran the live cd it showed all partitions were deleted.
[03:04] <frost0> jrib, don't answer that question..
[03:04] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: I don't think so, no.
[03:04] <drama1981> could Ar-Pharazon prob be due to cpu freq scaling?
[03:04] <Ar-Pharazon> drama1981: I suspect it might.
[03:04] <CompJunki> UBUNTU IS THE BES
[03:04] <CompJunki> T
[03:04] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: perhaps it reset something to default setting which killed performance...
[03:05] <Ar-Pharazon> drama1981: It's on "ondemand"
[03:05] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: definitly check your bios settings.
[03:05] <syntax_> How do i chang emy color in my term?
[03:05] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: Ok then, I'll check the bios settings in a while if there's nothing else I can do for now
[03:05] <jrib> syntax_: right click -> edit current profile
[03:05] <drama1981> that wouldnt be it then. ondemand causes little if any performance hit. its powersave that kills it
[03:05] <syntax_> thanks
[03:05] <Spalenza> Good personal day, ja I configured the samba and this perfectly functioning, but it has a command line that nao functions, will be that it has alguem that could help me
[03:05] <MasterOfDisaster> Ar-Pharazon: nothing I can think of, no
[03:05] <jrib> syntax_: or do you want to change the prompt color?
[03:06] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: Ok, I'll go restart and see what I can find.
[03:06] <A[D] minS> Seveas: would you please check out http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36032/
[03:06] <MasterOfDisaster> Spalenza: come again please?
[03:06] <Slart> is there a way to find out which drive my computer is booting from? (I mean where my mbr is located.. not the system drive)
[03:06] <frost0> jrib, i think i got it working..
[03:06] <akf3478> Ar-Pharazon: try running "top" in a terminal window and checking if any process is using a high PU
[03:07] <frost0> jrib, thx for your help.....
[03:07] <MasterOfDisaster> Slart: bios
[03:07] <akf3478> Ar-Pharazon: CPU sorry
[03:07] <jrib> frost0: cool, np
[03:07] <syntax_> this linux rocks
[03:07] <A[D] minS> seems Seveas idling so please can anyone check :  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36032/
[03:07] <penba> hi, i'm having some problems with fetchmail. It seems so connect fine to gmail, unless there are new emails. Then, it says it cant connect to localhost and exits with status 10
[03:07] <jrib> A[D] minS: tried 'sudo mkdir -p /etc/postfix'?
[03:07] <Slart> MasterOfDisaster: nothing in say, grub or similar?
[03:07] <MasterOfDisaster> penba: how are you connecting to gmail?
[03:08] <sindile_> jrib: workspace switcher applet only has these two options: show only current workspace and show workspace in -- rows
[03:08] <jrib> sindile_: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[03:08] <A[D] minS> jrib: same error after creating this folder
[03:08] <karranas> hopefully quick question.... using the partition manager on the install cd allows me to shrink a ntfs partition, can i do the reverse also? without hurting my ubuntu install?
[03:08] <MasterOfDisaster> Slart: why? grub is in your MBR, so it will be loaded from there? BIOS determines which drive to boot.
[03:09] <MasterOfDisaster> penba: you know they provide POP access now?
[03:09] <penba> MasterOfDisaster: what do you mean? I am using fetchmail through POP
[03:09] <sindile_> jrib: Gutsy with desktop effects enabled
[03:09] <syntax_> this more fun then redhat lol
[03:09] <penba> MasterOfDisaster: yeah, thats whay I am using
[03:09] <jrib> A[D] minS: did you delete the postfix stuff manually without removing the package manager?
[03:09] <jrib> !gutsy | sindile_
[03:09] <ubotu> sindile_: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[03:09] <Slart> MasterOfDisaster: I'm on my way to wipe one of my hard drives.. I just want to be sure I'm not wiping the mbr when I do it (although I could create a new one)
[03:09] <akf3478> Ar-Pharazon: wtf? why did you recompile synaptic?
[03:09] <DeZ_666> MasterOfDisaster: ive had troubles with grub and bios
[03:09] <DeZ_666> :/
[03:09] <syntax_> how do i search with apt-get?
[03:10] <jrib> !apt > syntax_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:10] <syntax_> ok
[03:10] <A[D] minS> syntax_ apt-get search package-name
[03:10] <crolle17> i use ubtunu as hostsystem for running vmware-server which contains windowsXP as guestssystem. my problem is that the guestssystem (windows XP) doesn't recognize the audio-hardware. i also heard that linux locks the audio-hardware for own use. is that true? and how to allow the guestsystem to use the audio-hardware too?
[03:10] <penba> penba: mutt can fetch emails just fine using POP, too, but then I have to open mutt everytime I want to check my inbox, instead of just checking xbiff/xlassie
[03:10] <guerby> hi, how to get the list of dependencies of a .deb from the command line?
[03:10] <MasterOfDisaster> Slart: wipe away, if you have a ubuntu livecd at your disposal
[03:10] <jrib> crolle17: audio works fine in my virtualbox guest so "not true", but I don't know about vmware audio with xp guest
[03:10] <Slart> MasterOfDisaster: well.. I have 3 or so.. so I should be ok.
[03:11] <MasterOfDisaster> penba: post your .fetchmailrc, strip the password first of course.
[03:11] <drama1981> crolle17 disable all system sounds in ubuntu once
[03:11] <karranas> anyone? is it possible to grow a ntfs partition with something like gparted with a decent chance of NOT destroying my ext2 filesystem.... i know it works rather well the one direction.... just not sure about the other.
[03:12] <epko> epko
[03:12] <drama1981> crolle17 vmware says the device is busy or not accessable right?
[03:12] <penba> MasterOfDisaster: http://pastebin.com/m539d9659
[03:12] <crolle17> drama1981, no vmware says nothing about audio (unfortunately)
[03:13] <jrib> guerby: dpkg -f
[03:13] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: Hi again, I checked but nothing.
[03:13] <crolle17> drama1981, the guestsystem just doesn't find the audio-hardware (although ubuntu plays nice)
[03:13] <lezard> coucou
[03:13] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: My options were f10 for setup and f11 for system recovery.
[03:13] <kofany> Hi i have a compaq laptop with GeForce GO 6150 and when kubuntu cd is started i have black screen :S
[03:13] <thomas__> hi
[03:13] <anandanbu> Is there any way to hear a live commentary in BBC as it asks for the windows media player or real player plugin
[03:13] <drama1981> crolle17 umm im not sure then. mine always said /dev/dsp is unconnectable. i had to disable all sounds in ubuntu and switch to oss
[03:14] <thomas__> how do i check the presence of a file from shellscript?
[03:14] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster:the bios setup had date and time, passwords, boot order and an HDD test which was estimated to take 78 minutes.
[03:14] <penba> MasterOfDisaster: and this http://pastebin.com/m22a12035
[03:14] <crolle17> drama1981, how to enable the audio sounds in ubuntu?
[03:14] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: f11 either did nothing, or booted to grub.
[03:14] <crolle17> disable
[03:14] <TwinX> karranas=>  do you have ntfsprogs installed?
[03:14] <jrib> thomas__: try #bash or see the "advanced bash scripting howto" section on testing
[03:14] <drama1981> system preferences sounds
[03:14] <karranas> twinx: yes
[03:15] <TwinX> karranas=>  type in terminal ntfsresize and check out the options
[03:15] <drama1981> also switch the mixer to oss
[03:15] <Ar-Pharazon> MasterofDisaster: By the way, when booting, the progress bar moves to the 45% point in about 4 seconds, stays there for a minute, then goes the rest of the way in about 5 seconds. The HDD light doesn't flash at all during the minute.
[03:15] <kofany>  I have a compaq laptop with GeForce GO 6150 and when kubuntu cd is started i have black screen :S
[03:15] <guerby> jrib, thx, what is the control field to use?
[03:16] <crolle17> drama1981, you mean SigmaTel OOS Mixer?
[03:16] <jrib> guerby: Depends
[03:16] <karranas> twinx: well, i know it can be done... but i have mixed feelings about the chances of destroying a perfectly working ubuntu install.... but i will check that out.
[03:16] <thomas__> thx
[03:16] <croSmiley> should cron be restarted after updating crontab?
[03:16] <guerby> jrib, thx
[03:16] <TwinX> karranas=>  it saya : Resize an NTFS volume non-destructively, safely move any data if needed.  lets hope its telling the truth :P
[03:16] <drama1981> well the default is auuto config. you should have the otion to use alsa,oss as well as a few others. choose anything that says oss
[03:17] <TwinX> saya -says*
[03:17] <jrib> croSmiley: no, did you use 'crontab -e' to edit?
[03:17] <tatters> Why is it that my laptop worked out the box in Dapper, yet with each new release my hardware breaks to a point now in feisty where my touchpad will not work and all 3 wireless cards have decided they too wont work rt2500 pci,pmcia and usb
[03:17] <techno> [16:16:59]  * Parts: sindile_ (n=sindile@vc-196-207-41-251.3g.vodacom.co.za) ("Leaving")
[03:17] <techno> how to make this
[03:17] <beni> how can I burn .cue files so my large 70 minutes .mp3 files is divided into several tracks??
[03:17] <croSmiley> jrib: no i use crontab -r and then crontab foo.cron
[03:18] <drama1981> crolle17 you will have to restart vmware after the change
[03:18] <Badpenguin86> I installed Avant WIndow Navigator with the files from the net, and not the repository, how would I remove it?
[03:18] <karranas> twinx: thats the key point right there.... i know of lots of stories where it didn't go so well, the one direction i didn't mind (who cares about a easily reinstalled win part) but messing with my linux partition has me worried
[03:18] <crolle17> drama1981, did so
[03:18] <anandanbu> I have downloaded the .bin file of Real Player 10 from their website for firefox and now how do i install it
[03:18] <Ar-Pharazon> Are there any diagnostics I can run to see what ubuntu is doing when booting or when I'm waiting for a folder's right click menu to pop up?
[03:18] <drama1981> i dont think a full system restart is needed though just vmware
[03:18] <croSmiley> jrib: it just doesnt wannt to run at specified time
[03:19] <jrib> croSmiley: should be working then, put something dumb like "touch /home/croSmiley/cron_works" or something
[03:19] <karranas> twinx: guess in the end i will just have to bite the bullet and try (*crosses fingers), thanks for the advice
[03:19] <croSmiley> jrib: i put rhythmbox --play
[03:19] <TwinX> karranas=>  lol good luck buddy
[03:19] <jrib> croSmiley: did you set the DISPLAY environment variable?
[03:19] <Badpenguin86> How do you remove a program that was installed from a tar file?
[03:20] <akf3478> Ar-Pharazon: use "top" first
[03:20] <croSmiley> jrib: nope :/
[03:20] <jrib> croSmiley: you need to
[03:20] <croSmiley> jrib: why? and how do i do that?
[03:20] <TwinX> Seveas=>  stop spamming m8 :)
[03:20] <timewriter> why
[03:20] <Seveas> TwinX, :)
[03:20] <TwinX> hehehe
[03:20] <jrib> Badpenguin86: you can try 'sudo make uninstall' from the same place you ran 'make install', but it is not guaranteed to exist.  In the future, consider using checkinstall or better yet, using the repositories
[03:20] <croSmiley> jrib: or just how? :)
[03:20] <jrib> !checkinstall > Badpenguin86 (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:21] <timewriter> what do i need to install on Ubuntu 7.0 , that allows me to manually modify the cpu scalling frequency ?
[03:21] <crolle17> drama1981, yeah did so, but still no audio-hardware able to find on guestsystem. i'm getting crazy.
[03:21] <Badpenguin86> thanks
[03:21] <drama1981> crolle17 what os you using in the vm? winxp?
[03:21] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: The process manager? Everything looks fine to me. The CPU's at about 1% occasionally jumping to 5%.
[03:21] <jrib> croSmiley: now, do 'echo $DISPLAY', then in your crontab add "DISPLAY=output_you_got_before" right before your command on the same line, or export it earlier in crontab
[03:21] <crolle17> drama1981, yes
[03:22] <drama1981> crolle17 go to the device manager in xp and see if any audio hardware is even listed
[03:22] <tipfoo> Hello everyone! I'm using Feisty, and very like the Glossy theme, but only the color of scrollbar (dark gray) is ugly for me. Is there a way to change it. Thanks!
[03:22] <harris_d> hi, can someone help me find out why nothing loads when i go to localhost ?
[03:22] <Seveas> TwinX, spamming done -- rest of the bans are staying where they are
[03:22] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: of my 1GB memory about 360mb is full.
[03:22] <TwinX> timewriter=>  cpudyn or  cpufrequtils
[03:22] <timewriter> thank you
[03:22] <TwinX> Seveas=>   cool :p
[03:23] <akf3478> Ar-Pharazon: ok, that sounds good. Could you please list all the symptoms you see of the slowness you are talking about (except booting)?
[03:23] <boubbin> !sound
[03:23] <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). 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
[03:23] <tatters> I removed dapper n installed feisty and my touchpad on laptop cannot drag windows no more :( they should call new releases downgrades
[03:23] <jrib> harris_d: is apache running?
[03:24] <syntax_> Where is my vim-full that i download that is the gui for vim?
[03:24] <harris_d> jrib, i am not sure... i don't know how to check
[03:24] <timewriter> cpudyn wants to remove powernowd
[03:24] <Stormx2> syntax_: Why would you want a GUI for vim?
[03:24] <jrib> harris_d: ps -ef | grep apache      list it?
[03:24] <syntax_> i like gvim
[03:24] <TwinX> timewriter=>  try the other one
[03:24] <Seveas> Stormx2, gnome-terminal is a good gui for vim :)
[03:24] <crolle17> drama1981, listed are: Audiocodecs, Legacy-Audiodriver, Legacy-Videorecorder, MediaControlDevice, Videocodecs and my installed driver for soundblaster (which is corrupted, because windows doesn't find audio-hardware)
[03:24] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: Right clicking something on the desktop makes the laptop read from HDD for about 2 seconds, even after that it still takes from half a second to one to display the same right click menu. Switching between windows is slow, again 05 to 2 seconds, sometimes I can actually see the window being drawn.
[03:24] <Stormx2> Seveas: xD exactly :)
[03:24] <timewriter> i did
[03:24] <jrib> syntax_: what do you mean?  You just tell a package manager to install it, you don't download it manually
[03:25] <timewriter> still cant let me modify
[03:25] <timewriter> i mean i cant see the options
[03:25] <timewriter> when i click on the icon on gnome
[03:25] <Ar-Pharazon> When I edit code in netbeans and go to a different line (it highlights the current line) there's about a 0.7 seconds delay as well.
[03:25] <tipfoo> Hi everyone! I'm using Feisty, and very like the Glossy theme, but only the color of scrollbar (dark gray) is ugly for me. Is there a way to change it. Thanks!
[03:26] <Stormx2> How do I grep for multiple things at once? Like string 1 OR string2
[03:26] <syntax_> be right back i need to get my driver for my pc card:)
[03:26] <croSmiley> jrib: i got ":0.0", should i put all that or just 0?
[03:26] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: Also when I click the menus on top ofthe screen they can take anywhere from 1 to 4 seconds to finish loading the icons.
[03:26] <jrib> Stormx2: egrep 'foo|bar'    should work
[03:26] <TwinX> timewriter=>  i'll try to find out on google
[03:26] <Seta-San> who are the experts in here?
[03:26] <jrib> !ask | Seta-San
[03:26] <ubotu> Seta-San: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:26] <harris_d> jrib, it says "www-data 11864 11856  0 23:11 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start"
[03:26] <timewriter> thanks
[03:26] <penba> MasterOfDisaster: problem solved with the help of procmail. Thankf for your attention, though
[03:26] <jrib> croSmiley: all is fine, but maybe :0  works too
[03:26] <drama1981> crolle17 look in the v, window is there a speaker in the lower corner (not in xp but the vm window itself)
[03:26] <jrib> harris_d: what happens when you visit '127.0.0.1' in your browser?
[03:27] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: Again, the submenus themselves appear after about a second... I'd expect that at least to be instantaneous.
[03:27] <crolle17> drama1981, no
[03:27] <Seta-San> do you know if ubuntu has any problems with evga 7800gt video cards or foxconn motherboards
[03:27] <timewriter> maybe i need to restart
[03:27] <crolle17> drama1981, i looked into the vmware right bottom corner...
[03:27] <Seta-San> i can't get x to load with any driver
[03:27] <Jack_Sparrow> !wireless | Jack_Sparrow
[03:27] <TwinX> timewriter=>  check this out: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/11/04/enabling-cpu-frequency-scaling/
[03:27] <Seta-San> not the nv driver or nvidia or vesa
[03:28] <Stormx2> jrib: Cheers.
[03:28] <timewriter> ok
[03:28] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: By the way, the reason I mention netbeans is that my 8 month old windows xp installation on a much older desktop pc which takes several minutes to start up alone runs the program much faster.
[03:28] <crolle17> drama1981, there are only harddisk1, cdrom1, floppy1, ethernet1
[03:28] <Seta-San> this is the sytem as it is running now
[03:28] <Seta-San> OS: Windows Vista Home Edition 6.0 (Build #6000) CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+, 2.01 GHz, 512KB Video: NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT (1440x900x32bpp 60Hz) Sound: Speakers (Creative SB Audigy 2 ZS (WDM)) Memory: Used: 1009/2047MB Uptime: 3d 18h 39m 47s HD: Free: 228.05 GB/421.87 GB Connection: NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller @ 100.0 Mbps (Rec: 996.28MB Sent: 89.17MB)
[03:28] <timewriter> i need to reboot
[03:28] <drama1981> crolle17 i think its a vmware issue then. it may not support your audio card at all. usually there should be a speaker with an x through it if ubuntu is using it otherwise there should be no x. but no speaker at all makes me think its vmware related
[03:28] <crolle17> drama1981, and floppy1 is corrupted (because i have no floppy)
[03:29] <croSmiley> jrib: i have this: "28 15 * * * DISPLAY=:0 rhytmbox --play" and still doesnt work
[03:29] <DuClare> does anybody know how to fix this error (while trying to start opera): opera: Module initialization failure. (-2036)
[03:29] <croSmiley> jrib: also tried with 0.0
[03:29] <DuClare> it seems to work fire when being run as root
[03:29] <jrib> croSmiley: you spelled rhythmbox incorrectly
[03:29] <harris_d> jrib, it just keeps loading.. but nothing appears
[03:29] <croSmiley> jrib: jesus
[03:29] <crolle17> drama1981, is it possible to configure vmware?
[03:29] <syntax_> what is the driver for madwifi-ng on ubuntu?
[03:29] <Seta-San> no one has any idea on this system for getting linux to load?
[03:30] <croSmiley> jrib: i just don't have luck
[03:30] <drama1981> there are configuration options. im not sure exactly where they are though since i only have vmware on my linux box and im not on that box at the moment
[03:30] <gravemind> why does my cd drive burn faster than it reads?
[03:30] <gravemind> it's really annoying
[03:31] <jrib> Seta-San: you could use the alternate install cd to install and then troubleshoot after. Try searching bugs.ubuntu.com and ubuntuforums.org for similar experiences though
[03:31] <brownie17> gravemind, because you touch yourself at night
[03:31] <CompJunki> i can't find 7zip, i just installed :(
[03:31] <CompJunki> so i can unrar my files
[03:31] <jrib> !unrar > CompJunki (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:31] <cyberphaz> there is no graphic gui for 7zip under linux
[03:31] <CompJunki> k
[03:31] <cyberphaz> only commandline
[03:32] <jrib> harris_d: not really sure... you have a firewall or any iptables rules?
[03:32] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: Does anything sound familiar at all?
[03:32] <akf3478> hmm, might be worth double-checking that the video driver is set up correctly. look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and check there's a line: Driver  "nvidia"
[03:32] <dzb> I was thinking, is it possible to write a script to shutdown gnome temporarily? e.g. if I start my Win Game in a new X environment and want all unnessecary processes to hybernate
[03:32] <ompaul> gravemind, reading is done with confirms, and depends on the quality of the disk, writing is done as fast as possible, however for high quality burning I tend to make it 8x or lower but thats me
[03:32] <CompJunki> !info unrar-free
[03:32] <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
[03:32] <harris_d> jrib, i'm not sure... thanks for your help, i think i will leave it for a while
[03:32] <jrib> CompJunki: use unrar from multiverse, unrar-free is virtually useless
[03:32] <akf3478> Ar-Pharazon: last last line was for you
[03:32] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: ok
[03:32] <CompJunki> i thought 7zip could do it ?
[03:32] <martyna> hello ;p !!
[03:33] <rk013> SUP DAWG
[03:33] <jrib> CompJunki: unrar will do it and it will integrate with the gui
[03:33] <rk013> o.O
[03:33] <drama1981> i think 7zip and unrar can be integrated into the standard file archive prog though
[03:33] <croSmiley> jrib: works, but rhythmbox has crashed
[03:33] <jrib> harris_d: k, gl
[03:33] <gravemind> ompaul: I see. so to make cdrdao and sound juicer go faster I need to see if they're doing extra error protection
[03:34] <Ar-Pharazon> akf3478: Here: http://pastebin.com/m28ea164a
[03:35] <croSmiley> jrib: funny, when i run rhythmbox --play from console works fine, but in cron it quits unexpectedly
[03:35] <Eviltronic> I'm on Feisty and i have installed restricted ATI drivers for my Radeon 9550. Now i have problem with refresh rate. I have all Resolutions but refresh rate on higher resolutions is 60 hz. My monitor can have resolutions high as 120 hz.
[03:35] <Seveas> croSmiley, that's quite normal. rhythmbox needs a gui
[03:35] <Seveas> and cron doesn't give it any
[03:36] <jrib> croSmiley: maybe use rhythmbox-client?
[03:36] <CompJunki> erm
[03:36] <ompaul> gravemind, if you do that you will get errors, if that is what you want then go that way
[03:36] <CompJunki> i can't find unrar-free i just installed it
[03:36] <TwinX> Ar-Pharazon=>  get rid of line 96 and  comment out last 3 lines
[03:36] <croSmiley> jrib: giving it a try..
[03:36] <gravemind> ompaul: nobody wants errors
[03:36] <Seveas> CompJunki, unrar-free is the package name, the app itself is unrar
[03:36] <drama1981> CompJunki i take that back 7zip will only integrate with fileroller on single archives no multi volume
[03:37] <mc2ts> i need some sound card advise...no midi sounds
[03:37] <gravemind> ompaul: this is just going painfully slowly. I don't think the drive is being used right
[03:37] <ompaul> gravemind, it mostly depends on the quality of the disk you are trying to rip, consider a disk that is in a car on a regular basis being pulled right and left and vibrated all over the place it will have a lot of scratches
[03:37] <drama1981> unrar integrates with fileroller so you dont launch it as a seperate app
[03:37] <CompJunki> Seveas:  well i cant find that either in the GUI
[03:37] <Seveas> CompJunki, ah, gui
[03:37] <CompJunki> yea
[03:38] <gravemind> ompaul: so I can benchmark with a brand new factory made cd?
[03:38] <drama1981> CompJunki the archive manager should open rar files after unrar is installed
[03:38] <CompJunki> ok
[03:38] <CompJunki> thanks
[03:38] <Seta-San> anyone know when the new version of ubuntu might be on it's way?
[03:38] <drama1981> np
[03:38] <jrib> Seta-San: around october 18
[03:38] <Seta-San> we've been on feisty dawn for like 6 months
[03:38] <drama1981> fileroller the archive manager is just a front end
[03:38] <Seta-San> sweet
[03:39] <Seta-San> still a ways away
[03:39] <croSmiley> jrib: it should come with rhythmbox or?
[03:39] <gravemind> ompaul: the thing that worries me is on the imac, cdrdao imports really fast, but on this computer it imports like three seconds of audio per second
[03:39] <CompJunki> drama1981:  nope it wont open it.
[03:39] <Ar-Pharazon> twinx: Restart?
[03:39] <jrib> croSmiley: yep, belongs to rhythmbox package here on feisty
[03:39] <ompaul> gravemind, that is like you got something busted, like the drive
[03:39] <TwinX> CTRL ALT BCKSPACE Ar-Pharazon
[03:39] <selinuxium> Hi all, I tries to update to Gutsy using    gksu 'update-manager -d' but it does not see the development files. Is this correct?
[03:39] <gravemind> ompaul: it's fast in windows
[03:40] <selinuxium> HO ompaul
[03:40] <drama1981> CompJunki is it a multi volume archive? also what type
[03:40] <orko3001_> anyone here?
[03:40] <ompaul> gravemind, well all I know is what I have said, I don't have such speed issues
[03:40] <jrib> selinuxium: #ubuntu+1 for help with gutsy
[03:40] <gravemind> ok
[03:40] <selinuxium> jrib: k Cheers
[03:40] <croSmiley> jrib: ah, im on dapper, and dont have one :(
[03:40] <ompaul> selinuxium, boo
[03:40] <dzb> I was thinking, is it possible to write a script to shutdown gnome temporarily? e.g. if I start my Win Game in a new X environment and want all unnessecary processes to hybernate
[03:41] <gravemind> anybody else know what could be slowing down my cd drive?
[03:41] <Seta-San> holy shit
[03:41] <CompJunki> drama1981:  its a *rar type file thats all i know.
[03:41] <Seta-San> i'm getting 1.8MB/sec download
[03:41] <CompJunki> *.rar
[03:41] <nour> uhm, hey ppl, jrib .. i couldn't get virtualbox 1.5.0 , i get this msg: "could not find kernel  image:linux" .. what am i missing!!
[03:41] <soundray> dzb: it's unnecessary. The Linux kernel takes care of that.
[03:41] <PriceChild> !ohmy | Seta-San
[03:41] <ubotu> Seta-San: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:41] <Seta-San> sorry
[03:42] <Seta-San> i've never seen speed like that before
[03:42] <gravemind> ompaul: cdrdao says it "Found 9177 Q sub-channels with CRC errors." maybe that's making it slow

[03:42] <orko3001_> hi i got a problem with photoshop in wine. It starts but I get this: Unable to continue because of a hardware or system error. Sorry but this error is unrecoverable.
[03:42] <Seta-San> including MS
[03:42] <jrib> nour: how are you trying to isntall it?  what do you do to get that error exactly?
[03:42] <d3x7r0> orko3001_, I believe the latest versions of photoshop are unable to be run on wine. The last one that works is version 6 or 7 if I'm not mistaken :S
[03:43] <rbs-tito> Does anybody know how I would go about printing something in reverse, for one of those iron-on transfers?
[03:43] <orko3001_> i right click on photoshop.exe and choose open with wine
[03:43] <dooglus> rbs-tito: reverse the image, then print as normal
[03:43] <rbs-tito> dooglus: It's a PDF
[03:43] <orko3001_> i did the same to install it
[03:43] <soundray> rbs-tito: most printer drivers allow you to print a mirror image
[03:43] <rbs-tito> soundray: HPLIP ?
[03:44] <orko3001_> i am useing 7
[03:44] <soundray> rbs-tito: don't know. Check for yourself - try printing it from evince and go through the print options.
[03:44] <drama1981> CompJunki did you install unrar and rar both or just unrar?
[03:44] <orko3001_> its wierd as it says hardware error
[03:44] <orko3001_> but after it has loaded up
[03:44] <CompJunki> drama1981:  only unrar
[03:44] <rbs-tito> soundray: I can't seem to find anything in evince
[03:44] <soundray> rbs-tito: have you tried the print dialog?
[03:44] <jrib> CompJunki: did you install unrar or unrar-free?
[03:45] <drama1981> sudo apt-get install rar
[03:45] <CompJunki> oh
[03:45] <drama1981> i guess you need both rar and unrar
[03:45] <rbs-tito> soundray: Yup, I have the openoffice file too, but I can't seem to do it in either
[03:45] <CompJunki> jrib:  unrar-free
[03:45] <CompJunki> do i need to install both ?
[03:45] <jrib> CompJunki: get rid of it.  Install unrar from multiverse
[03:45] <CompJunki> where is multiverse ?
[03:45] <LiberCogito> Ubuntu has failed me, and I just had to install XP.
[03:45] <drama1981> CompJunki from what i have read yes you need both unrar and rar
[03:45] <jrib> CompJunki: it's a repository
[03:46] <LiberCogito> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=540879
[03:46] <jrib> !multiverse > CompJunki (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:46] <CompJunki> ok
[03:46] <dooglus> rbs-tito: I'd load the PDF into The Gimp, reverse the image, and print as normal
[03:46] <nour> jrib: when i start the virtualbox, instead of showing the ubuntu screen thing!!
[03:46] <jrib> drama1981, CompJunki: should only need unrar to extract
[03:46] <TwinX> CompJunki=>  this one is also very easy to use;  http://downloads.sourceforge.net/peazip/peazip_1.9.bin.LINUX.GTK2.i586-1.deb
[03:46] <jrib> nour: you checked the md5sum on the iso?
[03:46] <soundray> rbs-tito: I've got it under File-Print, the Advanced Tab, General-Mirror Output
[03:46] <Ar-Pharazon> twinx: That seems to have made things a bit faster... I still see the progress bar for just a bit less than a minute and a half though.
[03:47] <nour> jrib: no... :(
[03:47] <drama1981> jrib you may be right and probobally are.  i just went by what i got from google. i have both installed so i cant be certain if only one is needed
[03:47] <nour> i will now jrib
[03:47] <rbs-tito> soundray: Nope :( It just lists a load of different qualities
[03:47] <TwinX> Ar-Pharazon=>  i'll check out ur xorg.conf again hold on
[03:47] <orko3001_> i just got this on the forums

[03:48] <soundray> rbs-tito: hold on, I'm checking something for you...
[03:48] <CompJunki> twinX i need 64bit version
[03:48] <CompJunki> :(
[03:49] <jrib> selinuxium: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading says latest version for update-manager  should be 0.45.2 for you to get to feisty from edgy
[03:49] <dooglus> Anlar: prostitutes use the gimp?
[03:49] <CompJunki> TwinX: i need the 64bit version,.
[03:49] <CompJunki> not the i386
[03:50] <TwinX> Ar-Pharazon=>  your progessbar at start up is coming up late ?
[03:50] <rbs-tito> Can I use lpr and pass the mirror command?
[03:50] <TwinX> CompJunki=>  hold on
[03:50] <steel_lady> question: how to get the sound on festy? Ubuntu recognizes the card, I found the driver and tried to run and on terminal I don't get any response, nothing. and no sound
[03:50] <Ar-Pharazon> Twinx: No, it comes up quickly enough. I don't think I'm supposed to see it for that long though.
[03:50] <predaeus> steel_lady, does alsamixer list your card?
[03:51] <steel_lady> pradaeus, yes!
[03:52] <drama1981> steel_lady is it intel?
[03:52] <steel_lady> pradaeus, I followed instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[03:52] <Ar-Pharazon> twinx: "That long" being about 80-85 seconds, really... But then XP takes around 40 to get to login and I'm sure I heard 20-30 is the norm for ubuntu. Heck I'm sure it was the norm with my previous installation.
[03:52] <soundray> rbs-tito: you can try, but make sure it's the lpr from the cups-bsd package
[03:52] <co_jelexx> maeyot
[03:53] <steel_lady> drama1981 it is M-audio delta audiophile 24/96
[03:53] <TwinX> Ar-Pharazon=>  try to disable some services u dont use
[03:53] <Anlar> Ar-Pharazon: I've had XP to login in 7.5 seconds, on oldish P4 already.. it's just a matter of small tweaks
[03:54] <Ar-Pharazon> twinx: Like?
[03:54] <steel_lady> drama1981, the driver name is ice1712
[03:54] <soundray> rbs-tito: you may have to print to a ps file first so you can use lpr
[03:54] <TwinX> hmm printers bluetooth  ... don't know :)
[03:54] <CompJunki> TwinX: i guess there isn't one :D
[03:54] <drama1981> steel_lady should work then i have that same chip different card though
[03:55] <Ar-Pharazon> anlar: I suspect I may have made all the small tweaks to make it take as long as it can, heh. I'd just be happy if it didn't have me wait another 5 minutes after login.
[03:55] <TwinX> CompJunki=>  I think it will work fine on 64 bit
[03:55] <predaeus> steel_lady, probably it is just muted somehow. did you check the other tabs in alsamixer, you can switch them with the TAB key (I think this is not mentioned in that tutorial). On my card some switch on the third tab, mutes the whole card.
[03:55] <CompJunki> twinX: it says it's not
[03:55] <CompJunki> in red
[03:55] <TwinX> hmm
[03:55] <Anlar> Ar-Pharazon: less than 5 seconds for me before the hdd activity is again overetc :)
[03:55] <predaeus> steel_lady, I've got totally different card/chipset though.
[03:56] <drama1981> as well as an ice1724
[03:56] <soundray> Ar-Pharazon: that's not normal. Are you sure your /etc/hosts is okay?
[03:56] <west> I use UBUNTU SERVER 7.04 and i installed X, and when i try to run i get X: cannot stat /etc/X11/X (No such file or directory), aborting
[03:56] <west> what should i do ?
[03:56] <TwinX> CompJunki=>  I guess u have to continue using unrar-free then :S
[03:56] <Ar-Pharazon> soundray: I have no idea what /etc/hosts even does, to be frank.
[03:56] <wooKieface> does using compiz, decharge my battery faster than not?
[03:56] <CompJunki> lol
[03:56] <CompJunki> 64bit blows
[03:57] <CompJunki> :(
[03:57] <TwinX> :)
[03:57] <steel_lady> pradeus I have master mono PCM and CD on maximum
[03:57] <CompJunki> dam
[03:57] <CompJunki> i love it really
[03:57] <CompJunki> 2 proc
[03:57] <CompJunki> haha
[03:57] <steel_lady> pradeus, there is no sound and everything looks normal
[03:57] <CompJunki> love watching the monitor
[03:57] <jrib> CompJunki: unrar should work fine on 64bit
[03:57] <drama1981> steel_lady make sure all ore enabled and no mute buttons are checked.
[03:57] <soundray> Ar-Pharazon: it associates IP addresses with names. The first line should read "127.0.0.1 localhost", the second should show your LAN IP and hostname. Here, it's "192.168.1.18 piano" for example.
[03:58] <predaeus> steel_lady, try putting everything to max to get it going and mess around with the switches on the third tab in alsamixer. Sorry I can not give exact instructions as this is a bit like a myth here too.
[03:58] <Ar-Pharazon> soundray: http://pastebin.com/d29b4cbb5 This is after the two 127.0.-something addresses.
[03:58] <soundray> Ar-Pharazon: if that second line is wrong or missing, you get delays at login
[03:58] <rbs-tito> soundray: LPR handled the PDF fine, :) Thanks for your help
[03:58] <Jowi> west, see here on how to install Xorg and window managers on a lowmem system (same procedure as for a server) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems (if you want to add xfce, gnome or kde you add package xubuntu-desktop, ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop instead of the window manager on that page.
[03:58] <Jowi> )
[03:58] <titun> is there any widget or desktop software to display 6/7 time zones
[03:59] <rbs-tito> soundray: lpr -o mirror
[03:59] <soundray> rbs-tito: well done
[03:59] <Ar-Pharazon> soundray: Oh the second line is "127.0.1.1   [computer name] " Is that wrong?
[03:59] <Ar-Pharazon> soundray: By the way... We are talking about ubuntu booting slow, right?
[03:59] <steel_lady> predaeus, so it can happen that I don't have sound although it is properly installed, I don't have to look for drivers etc?
[03:59] <soundray> Ar-Pharazon: no, /etc/hosts problems result in delays after password entry on gdm.
[04:00] <EspenG> i'm having trouble getting ubuntu GutsyGibbon Tribe5 to use my widescreen 100%.. take a look at the top bar: http://bildr.no/image/100601.jpeg and there you can se that totem does not use the whole with of the screen: http://bildr.no/image/100600.jpeg
[04:00] <soundray> Ar-Pharazon: to tweak actual bootup times, you have to edit services.
[04:00] <rbs-tito> EspenG: Is that the I810 driver?
[04:00] <predaeus> steel_lady, it happened with my card (I have a totally different one though). It was just the mixer settings. Some switch option on the third tab in alsamixer would mute the output for instance.
[04:00] <Ar-Pharazon> soundray: Nope, I don't have any problems there. All the delay happens right in the middle of booting.
[04:01] <EspenG> rbs-tito: i'm using the intel driver
[04:01] <EspenG> but i'll check to be shure
[04:01] <rbs-tito> EspenG: Ah right, xorg-driver-intel is far better than the default i810 driver.
[04:01] <onats> has anyone configured a nokia n70 for 3g use?
[04:01] <soundray> Ar-Pharazon: okay, then I misinterpreted your statement "I'd just be happy if it didn't have me wait another 5 minutes after login."
[04:01] <drama1981> steel_lady try running envy24control from a terminal once. it may not work wioth your card. does with mine
[04:01] <EspenG> rbs-tito: yes, it's the intel driver
[04:01] <Augustus_Kolya> Which is exactly why I stay with the stable releases, with Alpha's, there's always something updating the kernel image and breaking all your modules
[04:01] <Ar-Pharazon> soundray: Oh... Uh, sorry. That was about XP. Umm.
[04:01] <steel_lady> pradeus, for me it is not there, but can you check with me, when I go to preferences-sound there are a lot of things to choose, it can be the only reason
[04:02] <soundray> Ar-Pharazon: nm
[04:02] <rbs-tito> EspenG: Is there any plan to make intel the default driver when it becomes officially stable?
[04:02] <betatest20> Q: I can't display .tif files with any pictureviewer "unknown picturefile format". libtif4 is installed and I can open the pics in GIMP.
[04:02] <drama1981> envy24control is a special mixer made specifically for that chip
[04:02] <EspenG> rbs-tito: i have no idea
[04:02] <onats> what's the best irc client? xirc?
[04:03] <rbs-tito> onats: Personal preference, I like xchat-gnome
[04:03] <onats> i mean xchat?
[04:03] <Ar-Pharazon> ok, so I disabled all services except dbus and gdm, let's see how boot goes...
[04:03] <titun> is there any software to dispaly diff time zones??
[04:03] <soundray> onats: the best one is the one that suits you, personally.
[04:03] <onats> rbs-tito, can you add scripts to this? what add-ons can i use for this?
[04:03] <rbs-tito> EspenG: That would be good. Seeing how even those Dell laptops come without widescreen configured properly, as they use i810
[04:03] <Jowi> onats, personally i use xchat in X and weechat in console.
[04:03] <steel_lady> drama1981, it says it is not installed, I wave to switch the internet cable there, be back soon!
[04:04] <EspenG> rbs-tito: you have any idea about how i can fix it?
[04:04] <predaeus> steel_lady, try running alsamixer in a console and switch between tabs with the TAB key. THe alsa page states that the drivers you installed are the correct ones http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-MAudio
[04:04] <drama1981> k. its part of alsa-utils i think
[04:04] <Ady> guys,  i need help with the video player...
[04:04] <soundray> betatest20: install libtiff-tools and examine your files with tiffinfo to see if anything about them is unusual.
[04:05] <rbs-tito> EspenG: Is xorg .7 packaged yet?
[04:05] <Howitzer> can Gnomebaker erase CD-RWs?
[04:05] <soundray> betatest20: also, perhaps just try "file yourimage.tif'
[04:05] <drama1981> but it only works with that chip. wont even load if it doesnt find an ice1712 chip
[04:05] <TwinX> EspenG=>  u need to edit the screen resolution and frequenties in xorg.conf ( i guess)
[04:05] <mvrd3rd011> hi
[04:06] <EspenG> twinx: it's correct in the xorg.conf tile
[04:06] <drama1981> 10 times better than the alsa mixer though imo
[04:06] <soundray> !hi | mvrd3rd011
[04:06] <ubotu> mvrd3rd011: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:06] <CompJunki> TWinX what do i need to use
[04:06] <cappiz> how can i make kernel messages NOT show up in /var/log/syslog ?
[04:06] <steel_lady> pradaeus, I'll be back soon
[04:06] <soundray> cappiz: edit /etc/syslog.conf
[04:06] <Davy_Jones> i installed openbox to try it out and i did something so that nautilus doesn't show the desktop icons.. now i uninstalled openbox but my desktop icons still won't show up.. how do i fix this?
[04:07] <soundray> cappiz: man syslog.conf tells you how
[04:07] <michaelkohwj> cappiz: do you have syslog-ng?
[04:07] <cappiz> soundray: no shit... i cant make it... tried different things... looks like im missing something out
[04:07] <michaelkohwj> change the config.. /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf
[04:07] <cappiz> michaelkohwj: no
[04:07] <rambo3> Davy_Jones, you mean icon theme
[04:07] <TwinX> CompJunki=>  there is unrar-free and p7zip-full, but i dont use them,  I tried P7zip win version on wine. Also works great
[04:07] <Ar-Pharazon> Eh... 95 second after grub's timeout is over, and another 15 to login. Maybe my partition is too small? It's 10 GB but half of it is empty.
[04:08] <Davy_Jones> rambo3: i see no icons in my desktop, i want them back
[04:08] <betatest20> soundray: libtiff-tools is installed. only wired output on tiffinfo would be "TIFFReadCustomDirectory: Warning, 1e0657.tif: unknown field with tag 40961 (0xa001) encountered."
[04:08] <betatest20> soundray: but then again: GIMP likes the pitures
[04:08] <Davy_Jones> !openbox
[04:08] <ubotu> openbox is a lightweight window manager. For instructions and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Openbox. To replace metacity with Openbox please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReplaceMetacityWithOpenbox
[04:08] <soundray> betatest20: does "display" from imagemagick open them?
[04:09] <Davy_Jones> ahh, i got it
[04:09] <Davy_Jones> it's in gconf-editor
[04:09] <rambo3> Davy_Jones, desktop is /home/user/Desktop . and you lost those icons ?
[04:09] <Jowi> Davy_Jones, "gconftool -s -t bool /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop 1"
[04:09] <Jowi> Davy_Jones, (in a terminal)
[04:09] <TwinX> EspenG=>  changing the Hor. freq and vert. freq will help. Search for the values on ur manufacturer site.
[04:09] <betatest20> soundray: display does the trick
[04:10] <soundray> betatest20: does this solve your problem?
[04:10] <croSmiley> is there any alarm desklet for gdesklets?
[04:10] <soundray> betatest20: I suspect you've got an unusual bit depth or something like that. Medical pictures?
[04:10] <Ar-Pharazon> So... Any ideas why it takes me 90 seconds to boot?
[04:10] <Davy_Jones> Jowi: i issued the command, i'll restart X and see
[04:10] <cdavis> croSmiley, timer is the only thing I have found
[04:10] <Jowi> Davy_Jones, the change should be seen without restart
[04:10] <oem> hi. i would like to get rid of ghksudo's screnn darkening feature. where should i look ?
[04:11] <EspenG> twinx: the monitor works fine and it's using the correct settings. my problem is getting some of the applications to use the widescreen (take a look at those screenshots i posted)
[04:11] <Davy_Jones> Jowi: then it didn't change
[04:11] <betatest20> soundray: no, not really. pics from NASA, or selfmade with GIMP. I'd like to use another all-prupose pic viewer (f-spot, eye of gnome, etc.)
[04:11] <TwinX> k
[04:11] <cdavis> I just installed ubuntu on a new machine with two nics, it seems to put eth1 as a system priority when booting and trying to find dhcp, how can I change it so that it uses eth0 first and primary?
[04:11] <Davy_Jones> Jowi: i'll try changing it manually from gconf-editor
[04:11] <Jowi> Davy_Jones, "gconftool -g /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop" give you "true" or "false"?
[04:12] <DragonWolf> I'm looking for a program that can search and adjust the data located in memory maps.
[04:12] <Davy_Jones> Jowi: true
[04:12] <Jowi> Davy_Jones, so in gconf-editor it is set. same thing doing it as we did now or manually.
[04:12] <soundray> betatest20: you could convert them to png with mogrify. You might also consider filing a bug against libtiff
[04:13] <cdavis> so eth0 is plugged in but network applet tries dhcp on eth1 and then fails?  eth0 is fine when I manually force sudo dhclient eth0
[04:13] <soundray> betatest20: I generally prefer png, as it has most of the features and none of the idiosyncracies of tiff.
[04:13] <Ar-Pharazon> How can I see what ubuntu is doing during boot?
[04:14] <Davy_Jones> Jowi: that's right, i'll restart anyway.. it worked for some problems :X
[04:14] <soundray> Ar-Pharazon: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove all occurrences of "quiet splash"
[04:14] <jesson> how do i install flash support in ubuntu ??
[04:14] <Jowi> Davy_Jones, as long as nautilus is running you should get icons.
[04:14] <soundray> !flash > jesson, please read the private message from ubotu
[04:14] <DragonWolf> jesson, you could simple go to www.shockwave.com and install the plugin it asks you to.
[04:15] <TwinX> Ar-Pharazon=>  sudo gedit  /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:15] <FFForever> how come i keep getting "Error: Couldn't find a sound driver that works" when launching step mania?
[04:15] <Davy_Jones> Jowi: i got the icons back after restarting X
[04:15] <Davy_Jones> Jowi: thanks
[04:15] <Jowi> cool Davy_Jones
[04:15] <betatest20> soundray: tif writes faster with imagemagick mass conversion of .xcf than png does. The pics I have here are of really random origin, so there must be a flaw on my system (borked) or a bug somewhere. I just thought more people would have this problem. bTHis makes me think it must be my system.
[04:15] <Ar-Pharazon> soundray: quiet splash only or just "quiet" too?
[04:15] <TwinX> Ar-Pharazon=>  remove splash and quiete yes
[04:16] <syntax_> Does anyone know what the package call wifi-radar is on ubuntu?
[04:16] <soundray> Ar-Pharazon: quiet, too, if it occurs without splash
[04:16] <jesson> is there a way to install flash support using the terminal ? if so wat command??
[04:16] <Ar-Pharazon> Ok, let's see what I get now
[04:16] <soundray> betatest20: you can set a lower compression rate for png for faster saving.
[04:17] <syntax_> Does apt-get install wifi-radar or do i have to get a tar?
[04:17] <DragonWolf> jesson, which browser?
[04:17] <jesson> i hae firefox
[04:17] <syntax_> ?
[04:17] <soundray> betatest20: can you point me to one of the files you have trouble with?
[04:17] <michaelkohwj> syntax_: sudo apt-cache search wifi-radar
[04:17] <TwinX> jesson=>  sudo apt-get install -y flashplugin-nonfree
[04:17] <betatest20> soundray: give me a sec
[04:17] <Jowi> !info wifi-radar

[04:19] <nour_> uhm, jrib yes i got the same hash  : /
[04:20] <jesson> twinx o after the download is done wat do i do next??
[04:20] <DragonWolf> Anyone know of a program for Ubuntu (or Linux in general) that can search and edit/adjust the data in memory maps?
[04:20] <TwinX> jesson try to watch something on youtube
[04:21] <jrib> nour_: I don't know then, I installed feisty in virtualbox just a few days ago and didn't need to do anything special.  Try #vbox if no one here knows
[04:21] <jesson> twinx wat command should i use to download a program to run a sock 4 proxy ? i heard openssh wors for ubuntu
[04:21] <TwinX> jesson i'm too noob for that :P
[04:21] <Ar-Pharazon> Aha! Mr. Computer is "configuring network connections" for a minute during boot. I have one ethernet port which  have not used once since installing ubuntu, and a wireless connection which I'm using to for internet right now. There's bluetooth, too, I tried disabling the service, didn't work.
[04:21] <nour_> okay, thanks alot jrib
[04:21] <betatest20> soundray: http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2006/1e0657/1e0657.tif for exlample
[04:21] <jesson>  thnx
[04:22] <TwinX> :)
[04:23] <chaad> how can i make my external usb2.0 hd NO read-only?
[04:23] <Jowi> Ar-Pharazon, comment out eth0 section in /etc/network/interfaces if you don't need it. it probably searches for an ip address for it.
[04:23] <daily-grind> REGISTER fred
[04:23] <DuClare> I can think of the external drive being ntfs formatted
[04:23] <DuClare> either get the ntfs driver with write support
[04:23] <oem> chaad mount it read and write. if ntfs, follow the howtos for ntfs 3g
[04:23] <soundray> betatest20: opens fine here with Eye of Gnome
[04:23] <DuClare> or re-format it to something with write support
[04:23] <croSmiley> is there any console audio player?
[04:23] <DuClare> croSmiley, mpd
[04:23] <DuClare> mpg123
[04:24] <DuClare> mpg321
[04:24] <DuClare> mplayer
[04:24] <croSmiley> thx,
[04:24] <brownie17> guys i just used qemu to install windows, how do i run it? man page has me very confused
[04:24] <chaad> how i check if it ntfs or no?
[04:24] <betatest20> soundray: I wish it would here. display and GIMP open it, no other viewer
[04:24] <Ar-Pharazon> Jowi: Should I also comment out the "iface eth0 inet dhcp" line right below it?
[04:24] <DuClare> croSmiley, mpd is probably the "best"... mpg321, mplayer, etc. are fine for playing single files.. mpd is a music player daemon which creates a collection of your music and everything
[04:25] <Jowi> Ar-Pharazon, they are connected to each other so yes
[04:25] <DuClare> croSmiley, and mpd can be controlled via the console, with gui tools, even with a web browser..
[04:25] <soundray> betatest20: perhaps you can track down the point of failure by running 'strace eog 1e0657.tif'
[04:25] <croSmiley> DuClare: thx, ill give it a try, i just need it to run with cron...
[04:25] <DuClare> croSmiley, oh, then I suggest mplayer or mpg321 ..
[04:25] <Jowi> brownie17, "qemu -localtime -soundhw sb16 thewindowsfileyoucreated"
[04:26] <Ar-Pharazon> Jowi: There's also "lo", "eth1", "eth2", "ath0", "wlan0". Those are alright?
[04:26] <brownie17> Jowi, thanks man
[04:26] <croSmiley> DuClare: ah, ok
[04:26] <brownie17> jowi, where is it stored by default? i don't think i specified
[04:26] <IanLiu> Hello there. Is it possible to access a NTFS HD from Ubuntu?
[04:26] <Anlar> yes.
[04:27] <Jowi> Ar-Pharazon, lo you need. the rest should already be commented out unless the hardware has been found. wlan0 should be your wireless card.
[04:27] <soundray> !ntfs > IanLiu, please read ubotu's private message
[04:27] <chaad> !ntfs
[04:27] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[04:27] <chaad> !fuse
[04:27] <ubotu> FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE.  Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here:  http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems
[04:27] <IanLiu> Thanks =)
[04:27] <Jowi> Ar-Pharazon, ath0 should also be wireless but unsure. my mac-mini uses both ath0 and wlan0 for some reason
[04:28] <CompJunki> wtf, why cant i watch any youtube movies ?>
[04:28] <CompJunki> i did before on the 32bit verison
[04:28] <Ar-Pharazon> jowi: Nothing was commented out, oddly enough. http://pastebin.com/d4f7be102
[04:28] <chaad> !ntsf-3g
[04:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntsf-3g - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:28] <Jowi> CompJunki, if you installed the flash plugin you need to restart firefox.
[04:28] <chaad> !ntfs-3g
[04:28] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:29] <CompJunki> Jowi:  the browser says it cant find softwasre to support it
[04:29] <CompJunki> i knjow
[04:29] <TwinX> :)
[04:29] <CompJunki> someone make some 64bit shit
[04:29] <CompJunki> hehe
[04:29] <betatest20> soundray: that throws a lot of data, I will have to look into that. It seems to open the file and then at some point openen the requester about unknown picture format
[04:29] <TwinX> CompJunki=>  do you have flashplugin installed?
[04:29] <CompJunki> it needs to be done
[04:29] <soundray> !language | CompJunki
[04:29] <ubotu> CompJunki: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:29] <CompJunki> it wont install
[04:29] <CompJunki> cos im on a 64bit
[04:30] <Ar-Pharazon> Jowi: Anyway, let me try and see how it works with just eth0 commented...
[04:30] <DuClare> get 32bit
[04:30] <CompJunki> sorry soundray
[04:30] <DuClare> if you don't want to do some tuning and stuff
[04:30] <DuClare> there are some guides
[04:30] <DuClare> for hmm ... n*wrapper, something ..
[04:30] <CompJunki> DuClare:  you talking to me
[04:30] <DuClare> yea, sort of
[04:30] <TwinX> lol
[04:30] <CompJunki> erm
[04:30] <ebola> guys who were advicing me on sound, it is me, steel_lady. now alsa works suddenly after resetting!!!
[04:30] <DuClare> I installed 64bit for my sister yesterday
[04:30] <DuClare> and then noticed the support for 64bit atm is just POOR
[04:30] <DuClare> downloaded & installed 32bit. :\
[04:31] <CompJunki> DuClare:  its totally different innit ?
[04:31] <CompJunki> for the software
[04:31] <DuClare> nope
[04:31] <Jowi> CompJunki, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins
[04:31] <CompJunki> it is
[04:31] <CompJunki> ok
[04:31] <DuClare> what do you mean?
[04:31] <CompJunki> erm
[04:31] <CompJunki> it aint amd
[04:31] <soundray> betatest20: yes, strace is very wordy, but it's your best bet when you've exhausted the trivial options, like apt-get -f install
[04:31] <DuClare> doesn't matter
[04:31] <CompJunki> its intel
[04:31] <CompJunki> ok
[04:31] <boojah> any news on a flash player for 64bit? or if its ever gonna be supported?
[04:31] <Floker> i've got some wireless problems, my chipset is a realtek rtl8185 and its a pcmcia card. the included driver doent work, however i installed ndiswrapper from source (latest release candidate). it shows me the available networks, however if i connect to one, it says either "waiting for key" or "preparing device" for ever (depends on if its encrypted or not), but it won't connect. what can i do?
[04:32] <soundray> boojah: you'd have to ask Adobe, who jealously hoard the code.
[04:32] <DuClare> boojah, CompJunki, you can use nspluginwrapper
[04:32] <DuClare> but the other problem is java
[04:32] <DuClare> -_-
[04:32] <Seta-San> why would adobe want to release their code?
[04:32] <Polis_ttt> i can't find were to turn on/off register_global, and google isn't my best friend today, anyone know where?
[04:32] <soundray> Seta-San: why would Linus Torvalds release his code?
[04:33] <TwinX> dang!
[04:33] <Seta-San> because his goal was to make something people could use
[04:33] <brownie17> soundray, for the lulz
[04:33] <boojah> Duclare: i know about the nspluginwrapper, but thats a poor solution really.. does gnash play in 64bit?
[04:33] <Seta-San> adobe/macromedia
[04:33] <Seta-San> their goal is to make something to make money
[04:33] <soundray> Seta-San: that should be Adobe's goal, too, if you ask me.
[04:33] <Seta-San> and i don't blame them
[04:33] <Seta-San> i love money too
[04:33] <DuClare> boojah, IDK... that's what I realized too - it's a poor solution. That, plus java browser plugin, were the reasons I switched back to 32bit for my sis.
[04:33] <jesson> how can i download the latest dante server wat command?
[04:34] <Seta-San> anyone who asks me what religion i am i answer "i'm a capitalist"
[04:34] <Seta-San> moeny really is my religion
[04:34] <soundray> Seta-San: keep this out of here, please

[04:34] <TwinX> jesson=>  sudo apt-get install -y dante-server
[04:34] <Jowi> marthip, simply installing windows should take care of that.
[04:35] <Floker> could anybody help me w/ wireless? ive got a meeting in two hours and i pretty much need to get it done before
[04:35] <jesson> let me try

[04:36] <DuClare> it's really horrible btw...
[04:36] <Jowi> Ar-Pharazon, remember to enable eth0 whenever you need to use the ethernet port.
[04:36] <DuClare> I mean...
[04:36] <Cyrus25801> every time i try and play a dvd it tells me (kaffine) that it needs demux. what package must i install to get rid of this
[04:36] <boojah> marthip: you might not need to.. google for wine, maybe it can solve your problems
[04:36] <DuClare> 64bit has been around for so long already
[04:36] <DuClare> so why haven't those idiots made a proper 64bit plugin already.. -_-
[04:36] <betatest20> soundray: I did a reinstall of all the libtiff stuff earlier.  strace -o ~/downloads/eog.txt eog 1e0657.tif gave me a 175kb file, so I will have to look into that
[04:36] <CompJunki> i know
[04:36] <CompJunki> 64bit is leader
[04:36] <CompJunki> if it was used more
[04:36] <Cyrus25801> every time i try and play a dvd it tells me (kaffine) that it needs demux. what package must i install to get rid of this
[04:37] <CompJunki> studios use them
[04:37] <CompJunki> like me
[04:37] <CompJunki> im a musician
[04:37] <soundray> betatest20: good luck, hope you don't have to reinstall to make this work
[04:37] <jesson> it sez error cuz i dont hae internal adress, anway which folder do installed program go?? is it in /bin?
[04:37] <Ar-Pharazon> Jowi: Oh... So why'd it slow things down so much? Is there a line saying IP_request_timeout=60 somewhere?
[04:37] <CompJunki> duck it
[04:37] <CompJunki> ill jsut reinstall 32bit
[04:37] <CompJunki> take that shz away
[04:38] <CompJunki> haha
[04:38] <betatest20> soundray: thanks for your hints! I will take an hour or so, if I can't fix it, it will be done by an reinstall in a couple of weeks.
[04:38] <chaad> i can write on a ntfs partition in the same hd but not on a ntfs from an external usb hd
[04:38] <CompJunki> loooks pretty hard to do with the 32 intergrated firefox
[04:38] <CompJunki> lol
[04:38] <CompJunki> its a 64 bit system
[04:38] <TwinX> Kerttuli_ >> menu >> System >> Preferences >> File Management
[04:38] <CompJunki> i dont want 32 bit
[04:39] <Jowi> Ar-Pharazon, because you see the line you commented out "iface eth0 inet dhcp" request an ip address and patiently waits until it gets one. one other option you have is to set a static ip address. you can also run "gksudo network-admin" to enable/disable devices.
[04:39] <slashzul> what app do you use for watching *.mov movies?
[04:39] <nikin> is there a general way of starting aplications after loging in?
[04:39] <nikin> independedent of window manager
[04:39] <sparksong> CompJunki, this should help u to install flash plugin to 64bit firefox. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341727
[04:39] <slashzul> what app do you use for watching *.mov movies?
[04:40] <Jowi> Ar-Pharazon, i think the timeout setting is in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf if you want to change it (shouldn't be neccessary though)
[04:41] <Ar-Pharazon> Jowi: What's the difference between gksudo and just sudo? Oh I was just wondering if it was a design decision or what.
[04:41] <Jowi> Ar-Pharazon, sudo for console apps and gksudo for graphical apps.
[04:41] <Jowi> !gksudo
[04:41] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[04:41] <Cyrus25801> every time i try and play a dvd it tells me (kaffine) that it needs demux. what package must i install to get rid of this
[04:41] <nikin> Ar-Pharazon: gksudo is graphical , whil sudo is CLI.
[04:41] <croSmiley> any ideas how to quit from mpg321 started using cron without having to kill process?
[04:42] <Ar-Pharazon> Oh... Good thing I found that out.
[04:42] <TwinX> slashzul >>  vlc might do the job
[04:42] <slashzul> thanks
[04:42] <gmenelau> hi
[04:42] <nikin> Ar-Pharazon: if you make a shortcut on a program what needs sudo, its nicer if you dont get a terminal prompting for password
[04:42] <gmenelau> how i can i get in the X server from terminal
[04:43] <angelos_> hi
[04:43] <onats> can anyone guide me? i want to use my mobile phone as a modem, connected via usb, and dial using ppp?
[04:43] <nikin> gmenelau: satartx , or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

[04:43] <nikin> onats: what phone? what cable?
[04:43] <sparksong> I update to gutsy, and the firefox 2.0.0.6 does not work well, who know why?
[04:44] <Ar-Pharazon> nikin: Ah... So if the system-administration links were sudo and not gksudo I'd get terminals popping up all the time?
[04:44] <nikin> Ar-Pharazon: yep
[04:44] <Ar-Pharazon> Oh... Thanks
[04:44] <jesson> i get an error that sez no internal address when i try to apt-get install openssh-server  why is that?? if i hae dante server in my unbuntu already where or which folder can i find it in my computer??
[04:44] <Jowi> croSmiley, there is no other way. mpg321 does not have a session it listens to. xmms for example can be stopped with xmms-shell -e xmmsquit. mpg321 does not have those alternatives afaik
[04:44] <sparksong> When I add a bookmark or download some thing it will crash -- no response
[04:44] <onats> nikin, its a nokia n70, connect via local 3g mobile provider..
[04:45] <nikin> jesson: sudo apt-get install ssh     installs the openssh server
[04:45] <nikin> onats: first install gnome-ppp
[04:46] <jesson> after that which folder is it installed?? nikin let me try it dont leae
[04:46] <sparksong> hello
[04:46] <Jowi> croSmiley, killall -l (that's an L) will list available ways to kill. QUIT is one of them. maybe mpg321 will honor it.
[04:46] <sparksong> han
[04:46] <micha_> i got a little problem i have vmware workstation and runs fine on a previous box with fiesty! Now i have a new box for the vm-workstation thing but i cant install the deb package now cause libc6 depencies

[04:46] <TwinX> sparksong >>  did u install themes from e.g gnome-look?
[04:46] <nikin> jesson: just ionstall ssh, and after that     ps ax | grep sshd ... you should see that
[04:47] <nikin> onats: open the program and choose the settings then try autosearch fro modem
[04:47] <jesson> slow down im new wat do u mean by that psax??
[04:47] <sparksong> to TwinX, No, i only replace feisty to gutsy in the sources.list and do dist-upgrade
[04:47] <Ar-Pharazon> You know when you boot, grub gives you a menu, and theres (recovery) options and a memtest option? What are they for? Would recovery do anything I don't want with my system?

[05:01] <Davy_Jones> funkja: you have to have the kdelibs to be able to run amaroK.. that's why i try to stay away from kde apps as much as i can cuz installing them libs is a waste of my precious space
[05:01] <Ar-Pharazon> I have no idea why my menus are drawn so slowly... I think I'll just do format and reinstall. If I have a several months old "Ubuntu 7.04" cd should I bother downloading a new one?
[05:01] <alext> Davy_Jones I tried alsactl restore. I get "No soundcards found". lspci shows my card. I need to trigger an autodetection or something
[05:02] <funkja> Davy_Jones: I agree and that is why I want to get rid of it :)
[05:02] <alext> Ar-Pharazon have you checked the swap?
[05:02] <Davy_Jones> alext: hmm, probably..
[05:02] <sparksong> to Jowi, I use xchat-gnome, I can not find that menu item
[05:02] <mapp> whats an advantage of using nfs to export shares over samba?
[05:02] <Davy_Jones> alext: not much knowledge with hardware stuff :S
[05:02] <nikin> is there any way to start application on starting x... windowmanager ndependently?
[05:02] <Ar-Pharazon> alext: What might be wrong with the swap? It's twice my RAM, i. e. 2 GB, and usually quite empty.
[05:02] <jesson> where can i find wallpapers of linux making fun of microsoft any specifi site?
[05:03] <alext> Davy_Jones ok. I remeber something about dpkg-reconfigure but it doesnt seem to complain or anything...
[05:03] <Davy_Jones> funkja: try searching for kdelibs in synaptics are removing those
[05:03] <Jowi> sparksong, i don't know where that option is in xchat-gnome.
[05:03] <cosmodad> if there are several firmware images for my wifi card, how does Ubuntu choose among the files in /lib/firmware?
[05:03] <cellofellow> I'm trying to make a wireless-to-ethernet router. I've set up the wireless card and it connects to my router just fine. I've used Firestarter to set up the connection sharing. I've got DNSmasq for DNS and DHCP. I can't get a DHCP lease from this box, or use it as a gateway with manual IP setting.
[05:03] <alext> Ar-Pharazon My swap got turned off when i messed with some partitions and everything got really slow
[05:03] <Davy_Jones> jesson: there are many of those, but i don't know of a specific website, try google
[05:04] <sparksong> to funkja, I think audicious is better than amarok , it is lite
[05:04] <Davy_Jones> alext: are you able to get sound at all?
[05:04] <jaw> Hi -- I'd like to find a command to tell me which version of ubuntu is installed on my server, any ideas?
[05:04] <sparksong> to Jowi, I check the option, I think it will exist:)
[05:04] <alext> Ar-Pharazon you can check in System Monitor and Gparted
[05:04] <funkja> sparksong: thanks, i'll check it out. I was going to try Exaile as well, have you had any experience with that?
[05:05] <alext> Davy_Jones no sound, no. No card found at all...
[05:05] <Davy_Jones> sparksong: xmms ftw
[05:05] <Ar-Pharazon> alext: Well, I messed with my partition and everything got erased, while I don't think my swap is turned off I read from HDD a lot. And I can see the menus and windows slowly being drawn. And text is slow.
[05:05] <cellofellow> jaw: cat /etc/lsb-release
[05:05] <Davy_Jones> funkja: i use xmms cuz i believe i don't need a computer to organize my music files.. but that's just me
[05:06] <jaw> thanks cellofellow -- great -- how would I find out if it's 64bit or 32 bit?
[05:06] <Davy_Jones> alext: don't know... slap in your sound card model + ubuntu in google, see how it goes
[05:06] <alext> Ar-Pharazon just check in system monitor if swap is activated
[05:06] <cellofellow> jaw: uname -a
[05:06] <das-ubernun> how do you re-do that thing from installation when it detects other OSes? i've put my old windows hard drive back in, and wanna dual boot
[05:06] <alext> Davy_Jones thanks ill check there
[05:06] <cellofellow> das-ubernun: just edit grub.
[05:06] <onats> nikin, for the init strinks, this one seems to be a bad init string: ABORT `\nBUSY\r` \
[05:07] <das-ubernun> cellofellow: how do you do that?
[05:07] <onats> nikin, i'm guessing its the '`?
[05:07] <Eviltronic> I'm on fesity and my refresh rate is kinda stuck on 60 hz... I have radeon 9550.
[05:07] <cellofellow> das-ubernun: do what?
[05:07] <Ar-Pharazon> alext: It says Used swap: 0 bytes of 1.9 GB
[05:07] <Ar-Pharazon> alext: Where would I activate it?
[05:07] <das-ubernun> edit grub
[05:07] <alext> Ar-Pharazon great, then thats the problem
[05:07] <Ar-Pharazon> alext: It is?
[05:08] <alext> Ar-Pharazon did you move your swap partition and now your hibernation is not working either?
[05:08] <cellofellow> das-ubernun: there may be a way to have the system detect it for you, but your best bet is to add an entry to /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:08] <alext> Ar-Pharazon if so, you are in for a TREAT :D It takes some effort to fix
[05:08] <nikin> onats: my init string is like: at+cgdcont=1,"ip","internet"
[05:08] <Ar-Pharazon> alext: I didn't try hibernating and I didn't touch swap after creating it during install
[05:08] <sparksong> to funkja, It is the first time to hear it. If u want delete all the libs to amarok, u can use apt-get autoremove amarok
[05:09] <nikin> onats: did you ask your provider?
[05:09] <Eviltronic> I can not change refresh rate in ATI control center when i change to higher resolution nor can i change refresh rate in "screen resolution" when i choose higher resolution. ON higher resolutions its stuck at 60 hz.
[05:09] <nikin> and dont forget to delete the one thats autmatically generated
[05:09] <alext> Ar-Pharazon ok ill try to find this link i used to get it working, just a sec. You can do the command "swapon" to activate, but to permanently fix it takes some effort. And be careful! Dont do swapon on the wrong partition!
[05:09] <onats> nikin, i'm still on hold... there's something similar for the rival provider here.. they usually use the same technology:  http://free-ur-minds.com/yel/?p=5#more-5
[05:10] <sparksong> Ya, xchat-gnome is not very strong for custom, which IRC software do u use ?
[05:10] <Ar-Pharazon> alext: "swapon: /dev/sda1: Device or resource busy"
[05:10] <masss> while trying to apply http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2780 i got stuck right after the sudo sensor-detect  part, can someone just check plzz
[05:10] <onats> nikin, can you send me a copy of your init scripts?
[05:11] <Ar-Pharazon> alext: Oh, also, when I right click sda1 in gparted "swapoff" shows up.
[05:11] <alext> Ar-Pharazon you sure that sda1 is swap? Sound a bit fishy to me but you probably know
[05:11] <nikin> onats: i have no init scrip.. just my gnome-ppp settings if that can help you out...
[05:11] <nikin> onats: is your nick registered?

[05:12] <onats> nikin, yes.
[05:12] <alext> Ar-Pharazon you can do swapon in gparted by right clicking aswell
[05:12] <cellofellow> jaw: i686 is 32bit.
[05:12] <alext> Ar-Pharazon gotta go to solve my own problems, that thread should help you. good luck!
[05:12] <Ar-Pharazon> alext: Ok, thanks
[05:12] <jaw> cellofellow: great - it would say AMD64 if it were 64bit (even if running on intel hardware)... right?
[05:12] <cellofellow> something like that, yes.
[05:13] <jaw> thanks!

[05:14] <albreche> tnx cellofellow

[05:17] <nickrud> Grungebunny, if you installed emerald and it's theme manager, the manager is under System->Preferences
[05:18] <nickrud> Grungebunny, or emerald-theme-manager in a terminal
[05:18] <jaw> I'm configuring a VPS web server and am learning about security, user accounts for different processes, etc. Does anyone have any articles or hot tips?

[05:18] <Jowi> Cyrus25801, install "libdvdread3" then open a terminal and type "sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh" (that's automatic installation but it's not the recommended way of doing it (but it is my preffered way))

[05:21] <Cyrus25801> Jowi: yes cause it still telss me:No demuxer found - stream format not recognised
[05:21] <cellofellow> chaad: ummm, I think Ubuntu assumes a USB drive will be FAT, so you'll have to get down and dirty with the command line and fstab.
[05:22] <Jowi> Cyrus25801, does it work with other video players (such as totem-xine, mplayer, vlc)?

[05:27] <cookiefursec> No restricted drivers
[05:27] <cookiefursec> rambo3: Just keeps freezing
[05:27] <cellofellow> IanLiu: yes. There is nothing KWrite has that GEdit doesn't though. Kate may be a good choice though.
[05:28] <Jowi> cookiefursec, run the mem test in the grub boot menu. if that passes at least you know it is not a memory problem.
[05:28] <rambo3> cookiefursec, how often , and did you check logs ?
[05:28] <cookiefursec> rambo3, just keeps freezing, i can only move the mouse, but not click or type or
[05:28] <cookiefursec> how often, every time I log in
[05:28] <cookiefursec> I am on my laptop now
[05:28] <IanLiu> I just wanted to compare both ;)
[05:28] <Jowi> cookiefursec, which window manager are you using?
[05:28] <cookiefursec> window manager?
[05:28] <cookiefursec> what is it?
[05:29] <rambo3> metacity ?
[05:29] <Jowi> cookiefursec, then I assume you use gnome/metacity. I would recommend checking the memory first of all.
[05:29] <cookiefursec> I use gnome, yeah
[05:29] <`LePGeL[BoY] > is there any p2p file sharing in ubuntu fiesty just like bearshare in windoze?

[05:31] <Jowi> kousotu, please rephrase that question.
[05:31] <cookiefursec> what happenes if the memtest fails?
[05:31] <schrankage> lol why do windows occsionally go fade into black and white
[05:31] <Jowi> cookiefursec, that means that you have some bad RAM
[05:31] <spark-s> to kousotu, u can run ifconfig command in xterm
[05:31] <cookiefursec> ok
[05:31] <kousotu> Jowi: cretainly. I'm looking formy computer's ip on my own nework
[05:31] <Enul> i need help compiling some drivers please
[05:32] <rambo3> GoodHabit, if you don't know that then why even bother
[05:32] <kousotu> oh.. it's if lol
[05:32] <kousotu> I was trying IP
[05:32] <kousotu> lol
[05:32] <Jowi> kousotu, you can use network-admin or "ifconfig" in a terminal
[05:32] <GoodHabit> rambo3, sorry?
[05:32] <cookiefursec> how do I get into memtest
[05:32] <octavarium> hello, im looking to remove ubuntu from my system but fdisk on another live cd cant read the partitions that worked in ubuntu... is there an advanced partion tool on ubuntu disks?
[05:32] <Kris07> How do I install Azureus?
[05:33] <warbler> GoodHabit: have you tried in terminal - gksu update-manager -d   - yet?
[05:33] <rambo3> GoodHabit, if you don't know how to upgrade then it is not recommended , anyway #ubuntu+1
[05:33] <Jowi> kousotu, so you mean that you have some computers on the local network and you wish to find their IP addresses?
[05:33] <kousotu> Jowi: any ideas what I should do about pigin troubles?
[05:33] <octavarium> Kris07 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3215658
[05:33] <spark-s> to octavarium, u can use the third part partitions tool, I think partiton magic is a good tool
[05:33] <cookiefursec> Jowi, how do I run memtest, I only have ubuntu installed
[05:33] <kousotu> Jowi: just my own
[05:33] <GoodHabit> wabble, so update-manager works automaticaly with all the distros?

[05:34] <octavarium> spark-s i will try that
[05:34] <warbler> GoodHabit: the -d is for gutsy
[05:34] <rambo3> spark-s, it must be your theme
[05:34] <Jowi> kousotu, start "network-admin" that should give you all info you need or type "ifconfig" in a terminal.
[05:34] <octavarium> ok
[05:34] <octavarium> oops
[05:34] <spark-s> for example, last words, I typed x-chat but I see "x-cha"

[05:35] <charly17201> brand-new to linux and ubuntu.... when i download a program i need to unpack it but i can't seem to get the syntax right for changing to the correct directory
[05:35] <Jowi> cookiefursec, the memtest is in the boot options. Reboot, press ESC (if needed) and you will be presented with a boot menu. one of the options in that menu is the memory test.
[05:36] <jrib> charly17201: in general, you shouldn't be downloading programs.  You should use your favorite package manager instead.  What are you trying to install?
[05:36] <spark-s> to rambo3, sorry ,the words in my x-chat is not complete, so I can see hard sentence u typed
[05:36] <charly17201> one was the acrobat reader
[05:36] <rambo3> spark-s, gnome theme , change it
[05:37] <spark-s> to rambo3, u meas some bad gnome-the ...
[05:37] <charly17201> favorite package installer?
[05:37] <spark-s> 
[05:37] <jrib> !software > charly17201 (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:37] <spark-s> I will try
[05:37] <jrib> charly17201: there are plenty of free pdf readers in ubuntu, do you really want acrobat reader?
[05:38] <spark-s> to rambo3, I change gnome theme to Human, but I still cannot see the whole sentence
[05:39] <konam> hi

[05:39] <b4andafter> Does anyone know how to make WebDav work under Gnome Ubuntu 7.04 AMD64... When I try to connect it never asks me for the password so naturally it fails at the authentication... Hod do I tell it to use my password?
[05:39] <konam> how do i exit form a MAN page
[05:39] <konam> ?
[05:39] <rambo3> spark-s, restart x-chat ?
[05:39] <Badpenguin86> Is there a way to get a volume control in the notification area in gnome?
[05:39] <Jowi> konam, press q
[05:39] <konam> Jowi thanks :)
[05:39] <jrib> charly17201: ubuntu comes with evince installed by default, you should be able to just double click on your pdf
[05:40] <konam> Jowi i thought that someone was going to answer with a 'man man' :D
[05:40] <spark-s> restart is not help
[05:40] <nikron> konam: actually that would be man less
[05:40] <Jowi> konam, lol how nice
[05:40] <nikron> Badpenguin86: there's a volume applet, don't know if there is anything for the notification area applet per se
[05:41] <konam> Jowi do you know how to limit a ping in the command line?
[05:41] <charly17201> but, back to "my favorite package manager"  where would i find that at?
[05:41] <mandrivagirl> man ping
[05:41] <Jowi> konam, ping -c 5 address (limit to 5 pings)
[05:41] <Badpenguin86> Is there a way to get a volume control in the notification area in gnome?
[05:41] <mandrivagirl> but -c is your option
[05:41] <konam> Jowi ok, i was right
[05:41] <nikron> charly17201: he means like sypnatic
[05:42] <Enul> can i get some help please?
[05:42] <jrib> charly17201: system -> administration -> synaptic  or  Applications -> Add/remove programs.  See ubotu's message
[05:42] <Jowi> konam, and if you want a nicer way to read man pages try "man -Hfirefox manpageyouwanttoread"
[05:42] <jrib> !ask | Enul
[05:42] <ubotu> Enul: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[05:43] <b4andafter> Does anyone know how to make WebDav work under Gnome Ubuntu 7.04 AMD64... When I try to connect it never asks me for the password so naturally it fails at the authentication... Is there a way to tell it to use a specific password?

[05:43] <b4andafter> with the add network locations
[05:43] <charly17201> okay, i found synaptic.... thanks
[05:43] <nikron>  Enul what do you need to have your drivers as?
[05:43] <jrib> b4andafter: try using file -> connect to server and select webdav
[05:43] <jrib> b4andafter: in nautilus
[05:43] <Enul> nikron i dont understand your question
[05:43] <b4andafter> ya sry that is how i was doing it
[05:43] <nikron> Enul: what drivers do you need to compile
[05:44] <Kris07> Is there a reason why it doesn't look like the pictures?
[05:44] <b4andafter> it never asks me for my password
[05:44] <b4andafter> and then when i try to open the link
[05:44] <jrib> b4andafter: tried secure webdav?
[05:44] <b4andafter> ya
[05:44] <b4andafter> same problem
[05:44] <Enul> nikron i'm trying to compile the drivers for my nostromo speedpad n52 but the instructions dont work
[05:44] <nickrud> charly17201, you're gonna love this then, being an old dos person myself
[05:45] <nikron> Enul: ./configure; make; make install; doesn't work?
[05:45] <charly17201> nickrud, thanks..... i like it already..... i mean, i started out back in the 70s on cpm
[05:45] <b4andafter> it just never asks me for the authentication password (the username I can set in the dialog) and then it returns an error saying that I am not permited. Who uses open webdav anyways?
[05:45] <masss> while trying to apply http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2780 i got stuck right after the sudo sensor-detect  part, can someone just check plzz
[05:45] <Enul> yeah that doesnt work nikron
[05:46] <nickrud> charly17201, kaypro, all the way ;)
[05:46] <jrib> b4andafter: working fine here... does it show up on the left sidebar?
[05:46] <jrib> !who | b4andafter
[05:46] <ubotu> b4andafter: 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 :)
[05:46] <nikron> What errors do you get, Enul?
[05:46] <charly17201> lol osborne 1
[05:46] <Enul> one sec i'll run it again and cut and paste the error
[05:46] <b4andafter> !tab
[05:46] <ubotu> You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[05:47] <charly17201> okay, well let me go try this new info. thanks a lot everyone

[05:48] <cookiefursec> to extract a .rar archive
[05:49] <jrib> !unrar > cookiefursec (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:49] <cookiefursec> I installed it
[05:49] <jrib> cookiefursec: use unrar from multiverse and then you can just right click on your .rar and "extract here"
[05:49] <Xoris> cookiefursec: or p7z. or something. type "dpkg -L packagename | grep bin" to know for sure.
[05:49] <cookiefursec> how do i enable multiverse
[05:49] <Xoris> !multiverse
[05:49] <jrib> !multiverse > cookiefursec (see the private message from ubotu)

[05:50] <croSmiley> is Feisty required for upgrading to gutsy?

[05:50] <Xoris> croSmiley: quite. but Gutsy is not released.
[05:50] <cookiefursec> yeah, thanks, but I still sedo not know how to enable multiver

[05:50] <cookiefursec> stupid keyboard
[05:50] <cookiefursec> I still do not know how to enable multiverse
[05:50] <jrib> cookiefursec: I and the bot just told you
[05:51] <Xoris> cookiefursec: if you had read the links that were given to you by Ubotu, you would know
[05:51] <cookiefursec> ok
[05:51] <cookiefursec> thx
[05:51] <spark-s> #ubuntu+1 ? another irc channel ?
[05:51] <Xoris> !irc > spark-s
[05:51] <Slart> spark-s: yes
[05:51] <spark-s> okey, thanks
[05:52] <cal1> I just installed some video drivers and the last time that I did this, i rebooted to no video, someone last night told me the command to have linux repair this, anyone know what it is?
[05:52] <bottiger> How do I bind something to ALT+[random key]  using xmodmap?
[05:52] <Enul> no idea nikron?
[05:52] <Xoris> !xconfig > cal1
[05:53] <Ashfire908> i got an issue with the computer not allowing me to login if the screen shuts off with compiz is running. should i ask for help in #ubuntu-effects instead of here
[05:53] <vader1102> ok, in feisty, do I need to install the nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-dev packages to have 3d support?
[05:53] <b4andafter> i have tryed two methods for connecting, the first using the wizzard to add the server connection and the second is just adding the address directly into the nautilus address bar (dav://mecano.gme.usherb.ca/Groupes). Both do some work without asking me for a password and eventually spit out (Couldn't display "dav://mecano.gme.usherb.ca/Groupes". Access was denied.)
[05:54] <Xoris> vader1102: if you have an nvidia, yes. only nvidia-glx, though (or nvidia-glx-new)
[05:54] <vader1102> Xoris, ty
[05:54] <jrib> b4andafter: working fine here... does it show up on the left sidebar?
[05:54] <b4andafter> what left sidebar? im cunfused
[05:55] <Ashfire908> if i have a problem with ubuntu onlyu when compiz is running, should i ask the question here or at #ubuntu-effects
[05:55] <jrib> b4andafter: in nautilus
[05:55] <jrib> "Places"
[05:55] <b4andafter> ohoh yes
[05:55] <vader1102> I will have to do a reboot after this is finished as it is a (new) fresh install
[05:55] <b4andafter> it does
[05:55] <b4andafter> but same error
[05:55] <vader1102> brb........ I hope
[05:55] <croSmiley> does ubuntu development include linux core development or just picking up new software that work together?
[05:55] <jrib> b4andafter: I'm entering my url without the protocol, just foo.bar.com
[05:55] <Hobbsee> croSmiley: both
[05:56] <Frogzoo> croSmiley: I don't think ubuntu do much original kernel work
[05:56] <markelhas> ppl i've performance problems with ubuntu
[05:56] <b4andafter> Once again it shows me that little error message,... access denied
[05:56] <Comalang> #malang
[05:56] <Frogzoo> markelhas: oh noes..
[05:57] <markelhas> Frogzoo can't solve this problem
[05:57] <Hobbsee> Frogzoo: they do some of it.
[05:57] <Frogzoo> markelhas: what problem?
[05:57] <Frogzoo> Hobbsee: oh, didn't know that
[05:57] <markelhas> Frogzoo i've 1 g mem, i've test the mem change the sim but same problem
[05:57] <Frogzoo> markelhas: what problem?
[05:58] <croSmiley> is there a ubuntu programming channel?
[05:58] <Frogzoo> croSmiley: #ubuntu+1 ?
[05:58] <b4andafter> jrib: It worked fine under win xp, and the server is visible through http, but i want to upload files to it and webdav does not seem to authenticate
[05:58] <warbler> !ubuntu-dev
[05:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-dev - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:58] <markelhas> Frogzoo when i use 1g mem everything goes very slow. if i change the 512 sim to a 256 the system is ok
[05:58] <jrib> b4andafter: you could try using davfs2 to mount it instead
[05:58] <warbler> !#ubuntu-dev
[05:58] <markelhas> Frogzoo can't understant why can i use a 1g mem in ubuntu
[05:58] <b4andafter> jrib: ok thx,... i<ll look into and come bad if i have trouble
[05:59] <Frogzoo> markelhas: reboot and from grub choose 'memtest' - you'll likely find you have memory problems, maybe
[05:59] <Chinaski1> !kernel
[05:59] <Frogzoo> markelhas: then check your bios settings for memory timings
[05:59] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[05:59] <b4andafter> !davfs2
[05:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about davfs2 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:59] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Hi all! My /boot is 98% full... how do I make room? What can I delete?
[05:59] <warbler> !#ubuntu-devel
[05:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-devel - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:59] <markelhas> Frogzoo i've done that and no problems found
[05:59] <Xoris> warbler, stop guessing...
[05:59] <Xoris> !bot > warbler
[06:00] <markelhas> Frogzoo i've tested 2 different 512 mem, same problem
[06:00] <jrib> b4andafter: install davfs2 and read /usr/share/doc/davfs2/README.Debian
[06:00] <cookiefursec> i went to the links, and it tells me that unrar is not free
[06:00] <cookiefursec> but what can i use to extract a .rar archive pls?
[06:00] <kousotu> markelhas: sure the ram works with your computer?
[06:00] <Frogzoo> markelhas: reboot and from grub choose 'memtest' - you'll likely find you have memory problems, maybe
[06:00] <Xoris> !info unrar-free | cookiefursec
[06:00] <ubotu> cookiefursec: 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
[06:00] <kousotu> cookiefursec: on linux?
[06:00] <cookiefursec> yes, on ubuntu
[06:01] <jrib> cookiefursec: unrar is free in cost, it's just not open source...
[06:01] <Xoris> cookiefursec: also, you could always shut your nose and use the nonfree version i guess.
[06:01] <cookiefursec> well, I still do not know how to enable universe
[06:01] <Xoris> cookiefursec: well, you were told like half a dozen times now, i don't know what more.
[06:01] <jrib> cookiefursec: system -> administraiton -> software sources
[06:01] <cookiefursec> ok
[06:01] <jrib> and you want multiverse
[06:01] <cookiefursec> THANKS

[06:06] <Ashfire908> if i have a problem with ubuntu onlyu when compiz is running, should i ask the question here or at #ubuntu-effects
[06:06] <Mark_newb> what is the su password for a standard install of ubuntu
[06:07] <Seveas> Ashfire908, the latter
[06:07] <jrib> !root > Mark_newb (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:07] <Xoris> !root > Mark_newb
[06:07] <markelhas> any hardware expert around!?
[06:07] <Seveas> !anyone | markelhas
[06:07] <ubotu> markelhas: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:07] <Xoris> !anyone
[06:07] <Ashfire908> Seveas latter means the second right?
[06:07] <b4andafter> jrib: i quite shure i know what you are talking about "universe repository" (I'm new to ubuntu)
[06:07] <Seveas> Ashfire908, yup
[06:07] <jrib> !repos > b4andafter (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:07] <Xoris> !universe > b4andafter
[06:07] <Mark_newb> your kidding there is no su password
[06:07] <Ashfire908> Seveas k
[06:07] <Seveas> Ashfire908, former, latter is first, second
[06:07] <jrib> b4andafter: system -> administration -> software sources
[06:07] <Xoris> Mark_newb: no, i'm not kidding.
[06:07] <Xoris> Mark_newb: why do you think you need one?
[06:08] <Jack_Sparrow> my wireless is working but I would like to enable wep security.  I am using a 2wire broadband router.
[06:08] <Seveas> Mark_newb, read what ubotu sent you
[06:08] <jwilson> how do you register a nickserv name again?
[06:08] <Seveas> !register | jwilson
[06:08] <ubotu> jwilson: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[06:08] <markelhas> ok then, need some help to solve a mem problem, my ubuntu runs very slow with 1g of mem
[06:08] <Seveas> Jack_Sparrow, 'wep security' is an oxymoron... wep ain't secure :)
[06:08] <dug> Jack_Sparrow: you need to google your router model (or find manual) to find the IP to use for connecting to it (with your browser), and configure it there
[06:09] <efface> Anyone available to help me trouble shoot why I cannot get on the internet?
[06:09] <matt_> markelhas, ps axfu
[06:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Seveas: what would you suggest
[06:09] <Seveas> Jack_Sparrow, at least wpa
[06:09] <markelhas> when i'm using less mem the os runs ok
[06:09] <kousotu> efface: a diferent pc I assume?
[06:09] <matt_> markelhas, it might not be a memory issues
[06:09] <mneptok> Seveas: sure in is. you can be secure in the fact that the Albanian mafia is probably using your WEP-enabled device ....
[06:09] <efface> kousotu: yesm
[06:09] <mneptok> s/in/it/
[06:09] <markelhas> matt_ what?
[06:09] <Seveas> mneptok, :D
[06:09] <Kaijester> Has anyone had an issue with the current server release not installing the server software during os installation? I was under the assuption that all the aspects of the LAMP were installed at that time...
[06:09] <Zenom> anyone know of any large ubuntu server setups?
[06:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Seveas: I have wpa in my options for the router..
[06:09] <kousotu> efface: wireless?
[06:09] <matt_> markelhas, run ps axfu and look at the MEM and CPU columns
[06:09] <dug> Jack_Sparrow: wpa or wpa2 is more secure than wep.  Try connecting to your router with your browser, it will be an IP like http://192.168.0.1/ or something similar
[06:09] <mneptok> Zenom: i do.
[06:10] <efface> kousotu: lan
[06:10] <Jack_Sparrow> dug: I got that far. I am in there now
[06:10] <kousotu> efface: that is odd.. I have no issues on lan, but wifi gives me issues
[06:10] <nikron> Kaijester: when you are installing the LAMP stack, you press space to select it, not enter
[06:10] <mneptok> Zenom: but i can't disguss particulars, as these deployments are customers.
[06:10] <mneptok> *discuss
[06:10] <nikron> Kaijester: otherwise it wont install it
[06:10] <mneptok> bah. still asleep.
[06:10] <Xoris> mneptok: disgust?
[06:10] <Kaijester> Ah thank you, that would explain it.
[06:10] <Jack_Sparrow> dug: I have woa-psk oe wpa2-psk
[06:10] <snipex> i entered a command a command "killall gnome-panel"  and my wallpaper and all things on desktop are gone !
[06:10] <Kaijester> Guess i'll have another go at it :)
[06:11] <snipex> how do i undo that ???
[06:11] <efface> kousotu: yea its odd, eth1 wont get an ip but eth1:avah will....i removed the avahsi daemon, whatever its called, didnt fix it
[06:11] <markelhas> matt_ ithink so cause when a removed my 512 mb sim and put 256 works just fine, and bu the way i've made the mem test and it's ok, also tested with other 512 mem
[06:11] <Kaijester> I'm sure i'll be back later, thank you.
[06:11] <b4andafter> jrib: that opens up the same settings page as in the app-get window? ,,.. i checked off all the boxes but still search returns no devfs2
[06:11] <nikron> snipex: run nautilus
[06:11] <croSmiley> how to set volume level through console?
[06:11] <dug> Jack_Sparrow: others know more than me, but I think wpa2 is supposed to be better than wpa
[06:11] <snipex> what ?
[06:11] <jrib> b4andafter: davfs2 with an 'a'
[06:11] <Pici> croSmiley: alsamixer
[06:11] <nikron> croSmiley: alsamixer?
[06:11] <Xoris> croSmiley: try "man amix" (or amixer)
[06:11] <Darkhack> snipex: why did you do that?  Hit ctrl-alt-backspace.
[06:11] <Pici> !away > Akifemre[afk] 
[06:11] <croSmiley> ok thx all
[06:11] <dug> Jack_Sparrow: be careful though, have a wired connection for backup in case you can't connect
[06:11] <Zenom> mneptok:  c an you give me an idea as to # of servers, traffic etc?
[06:11] <Zenom> not specific layouts or anything
[06:12] <b4andafter> jrib: yes sry I had searched for davfs2
[06:12] <mneptok> Zenom: 250+ node HPC cluster
[06:12] <snipex> still the same
[06:12] <snipex> i was reading a guide how to install urban terror game
[06:12] <jrib> b4andafter: pastebin the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list.save
[06:12] <jrib> b4andafter: pastebin the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list I mean
[06:12] <Jack_Sparrow> dug: It will drop me here for sure.  What do I need to know when I go to connct on the ubuntu side other than the encryption key
[06:12] <jrib> !pastebin > b4andafter (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:13] <Zenom> mneptok: interesting, i am looking to use it on 18 webservers
[06:13] <markelhas> Need some help to solve a mem problem, my ubuntu runs very slow with 1g of mem.
[06:13] <vader1102> ok, is there a good how to for the broadcom 4311 wifi? Mine will not turn on. I guess I need to do the fun thing of downloading the firmware and all lol
[06:13] <ConfidentiaL> Whenever I start ubuntu, before usplash shows, I get to a shell or whatever with initramfs, where I have to type exit to continue. How can I automate this?
[06:13] <Zenom> but i didn't see a list of existing  customers type of thing
[06:13] <kousotu> how do I check compat for beryl through terminal?
[06:13] <efface> markelhas: i suggest running the memory tester on the ubuntu cd
[06:13] <mneptok> Zenom: this particular cluster is working on drug discovery/compound efficacy tests
[06:13] <Jack_Sparrow> vader1102: Y just set mine up this morning with fwcutter
[06:13] <markelhas> efface don that
[06:14] <markelhas> efface done that
[06:14] <mneptok> Zenom: white papers are currently being worked on
[06:14] <dug> Jack_Sparrow: it should popup a password dialog when you try to connect, if not you can manually connect from the icon on the top right menu bar.
[06:14] <Zenom> mneptok: I would imagine ubuntu server would be ok as we run debian now, but I am tired of running stable with old outdated repos
[06:14] <mneptok> Zenom: we hope to have a few case studies soon
[06:14] <vader1102> Jack_Sparrow, ok, just dl fwcutter and do what I have had to do in the past?
[06:14] <dug> Jack_Sparrow: some wireless drivers in linux have problems with wpa I hear though.
[06:14] <warbler> markelhas: try using hdparm - system-admin-services-check the box for hdparm
[06:14] <Jack_Sparrow> dug: is the password my key?
[06:14] <Grungebunny> anyone used Emerald Themer? how do you apply one of the themes? ive tried double clicking but there are no 'apply' buttons .. ?
[06:14] <Zenom> mneptok: nice, as trying to install freebsd but doesn't seem to play nice with newer duo core systems
[06:14] <Zenom> mneptok: have you run across any major hiccups?
[06:14] <dug> Jack_Sparrow: it should be
[06:14] <Jack_Sparrow> dug: thanks.. going to try it
[06:15] <nikron> kousotu: glxinfo | grep direct
[06:15] <mneptok> Zenom: FreeBSD certainly lags in hardware support
[06:15] <Kris08> Why is it, that when I run Azureus it doesn't look like it does on the site?
[06:15] <cdavis> I have my new drive mounting via fstab, however only root can write to it, it is ext3.  What do I need to change?
[06:15] <dug> Jack_Sparrow: again have a wired connection for backup :)
[06:15] <kousotu> h nikron
[06:15] <kousotu> ty*
[06:15] <Zenom> mneptok: thats my concern we are buying a new db server from hp and such
[06:15] <mneptok> Zenom: not really. this particular HPC cluster is pretty stable for the customer (*knocks wood*)
[06:15] <hieppo> hi can someone help me with installation of ubuntu
[06:15] <Zenom> and I know hp will have support for their new tigerton processors out of the box
[06:15] <dug> Kris08: does it look bad?  If you want you can install the java6 package
[06:15] <leo^> whats a good desktop video capture software
[06:16] <Zenom> at least suse, rhel will
[06:16] <Grungebunny> anyone used Emerald Themer? how do you apply one of the themes? ive tried double clicking but there are no 'apply' buttons .. ?
[06:16] <dug> hieppo: are you having a specific problem with your install?  or looking for general help?
[06:16] <hieppo> I have successfully installed a 32bit version on a Pentium 4 platform
[06:16] <kousotu> direct rendering: Yes - good, 3d
[06:16] <kousotu> it lke to piss me off
[06:16] <kousotu> lol
[06:16] <hieppo> when I tried installing 64bit on an AMD3000
[06:16] <Kris08> It doesn't look bad
[06:16] <hieppo> AMD64 x3000
[06:17] <dug> hieppo: i would just go ahead and ask your question and see if anyone here knows the answer
[06:17] <efface> Anyone available to help me trouble shoot why I cannot get on the internet on my ubuntu box?
[06:17] <Zenom> mneptok: do you use anything special to manage that large cluster?
[06:17] <Kris08> it just looks like everything else on Ubuntu
[06:17] <Zenom> mneptok: to save from ssh'ing into each box for changes/updates etc?
[06:17] <b8b> I am running ubuntu fiesty and i a wanting to know if the ati drivers that were installed by the restricted drivers program are the right ati drivers
[06:17] <hieppo> it is never stabled when it boots into the xserver
[06:17] <dug> Kris08: java apps use the theme and look of the OS they are running on.  So a java app on Windows might look like a windows app, and so forth
[06:17] <mneptok> Zenom: it's not my cluster, it's a customer's. but Landscape is what we recommend for such things.
[06:17] <hieppo> I think it has something to do with teh SATA controller
[06:17] <Kris08> :(
[06:18] <Xoris> dug: uhm, that depends on the toolkit they're using for the GUI
[06:18] <Kris08> that's the only reason I got Azureus
[06:18] <Kris08> okay
[06:18] <Zenom> mneptok: cool, and are they using 6 or 7 of ubuntu server?
[06:18] <imbecile> I was curious if there are alot of themes for AWN ive only found like 10 so far.. anyone know of any good resources for them?
[06:18] <dug> Kris08: azureus uses something called SWT that is supposed to make it look like other apps on the platform
[06:18] <hieppo> I am trying to install on a SI SATA controller built into a Gigabyte K8NNXP motherboard
[06:18] <mneptok> Zenom: 6.06.1
[06:18] <Kris08> So is there a way to get it to look like it does on the website?\
[06:18] <dug> Kris08: I don't know if you know, but Azureus was also updated recently to something called Vuze.  I don't know if they have a version of Vuze for Linux however
[06:19] <Zenom> i wonder if 6.06 has latest debs for stuff
[06:19] <hieppo> sometimes the xserver is stable enough to start the install but fails when it try to open up the partioner
[06:19] <Xoris> Zenom: no
[06:19] <hieppo> dug? do you have any suggestion?
[06:19] <Pici> Zenom: http://www.canonical.com/landscape <- landscape info
[06:19] <mneptok> Zenom: not really. it's a stable, not cutting edge, release.
[06:19] <Zenom> so would be no diff than debian stable
[06:19] <Zenom> their packages are like 24 mos old
[06:19] <FRozEN-07> hello
[06:19] <dug> hieppo: sorry, I don't know myself, but maybe someone else here does or else you can ask on the ubuntu forums
[06:19] <hieppo> I know the system does work with suse 10.2
[06:19] <FRozEN-07> you pig
[06:19] <hieppo> ok
[06:19] <Achillesforce> Wow
[06:20] <Achillesforce> Hey everyone
[06:20] <Achillesforce> :)
[06:20] <Xoris> Zenom: uhm, Ubuntu is not Debian, so it would be different anyway, but as far as package age goes, probably yes. Ubuntu has some backports though (but then i suppose Debian has the same)
[06:20] <FRozEN-07> Go go
[06:20] <mneptok> Zenom: except we have another LTS release next spring. AFAIK, Debian's next release is scheduled for around the time i start buying adult diapers.

[06:20] <Zenom> mneptok: lol
[06:20] <Xoris> !ask | Achillesforce
[06:20] <ubotu> Achillesforce: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:20] <mneptok> Xoris?
[06:20] <Achillesforce> Okay =D
[06:20] <Nalidixic> hi everyone. just a quick question about run levels. i am installing my nvidia drivers and need to get out of xserver. i went down to run level 1 and went to install but the installer wants run level 3. how do i get up to run level 3 without xserver starting up??? thanks!
[06:20] <ConfidentiaL> Whenever I start ubuntu, before usplash shows, I get to a shell or whatever with initramfs, where I have to type exit to continue. How can I automate this?
[06:20] <Seveas> FRozEN-07, behave or begone please
[06:20] <Zenom> what is the cost for landsacpe or is it part of their support package?
[06:20] <Achillesforce> Well, I just uploaded Ubuntu opnon my old HP, and i LVOE it
[06:20] <Xoris> mneptok: FRozEN-07, especially the part after "hello"
[06:20] <Achillesforce> But.
[06:21] <Achillesforce> i get Internet Through Wireless. And i got a Wireless card that goes INSIDE the PC
[06:21] <Achillesforce> Idono how to make it work =(
[06:21] <mneptok> Xoris: yeah, caught scrool as i asked you
[06:21] <Achillesforce> Its a Wireless card that goes inside the PC
[06:21] <Kris08> Vuze doesn't interest me
[06:21] <Achillesforce> Its on PCI =)
[06:21] <Xoris> Nalidixic: leave runlevels alone
[06:21] <Seveas> Zenom, please ask canonical, http://canonical.com/support/webtolead
[06:21] <Nalidixic> xoris: ok, what do you suggest then?
[06:21] <Xoris> Nalidixic: just do "sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop" to kill the x server, and later the same with "start" to restart it
[06:21] <Darkhack> Achilles, what kind of card is it?  Brand/model?
[06:22] <Nalidixic> xoris: ok, thanks alot
[06:22] <Achillesforce> DarkHack, give me one sec =)
[06:22] <b4andafter> jrib: I just noticed that the "Universe" packages seem to be commented in this file(I did not have to option i nthat fancy dialog box.) so i removed the comment with nano and im reloading the repositories now
[06:22] <nikron> Nalidixic: exit your shell and it should take you back up to runlevel 3
[06:22] <Achillesforce> D-Link "RangeBooster N. Desktop Adapter". DWA-542
[06:22] <Achillesforce> =)
[06:22] <Xoris> Nalidixic: also, *how* are you installing the nvidia drivers? i'm not aware that the ones provided by Ubuntu require manually shutting off the X server
[06:22] <urilockz> uh, hi?
[06:22] <croSmiley> what is the difference between 'Master Playback Volume' and 'Line Playback Volume' in alsa?
[06:22] <Seveas> Xoris, they don't :)
[06:22] <Zenom> and 6.06 is what feisty?
[06:23] <Nalidixic> xoris i'm using the drivers off of the nvidia site
[06:23] <`LePGeL[BoY] > in there any better filesharing apps rather than linuxdcpp?
[06:23] <Seveas> Zenom, 6.06 is dapper
[06:23] <TwinX> Nalidixic >>  /etc/init.d/gdm stop    >> login as root >> type init 3
[06:23] <Jack_Smirnoff> 606 dapper
[06:23] <Xoris> Zenom: no, 6.06 is Dapper
[06:23] <dug> Achillesforce: do you already have a wireless router setup or a wireless access point?
[06:23] <Zenom> ok
[06:23] <urilockz> 7.04 is feisty
[06:23] <FRozEN-07>     ????????????????????????
[06:23] <Achillesforce> Of course =)
[06:23] <Achillesforce> I do have them
[06:23] <Achillesforce> I'm RLLY new at Unbuntu
[06:23] <urilockz> and me
[06:23] <`LePGeL[BoY] > in there any better filesharing apps rather than linuxdcpp?
[06:23] <Pie-rat1> 6.06 is dapper, 6.10 is edgy, 7.04 feisty
[06:23] <Pie-rat1> 7.10 gutsy
[06:23] <dug> Achillesforce: try going to the menu System->Administration->Network and enable the wireless connection in your pc
[06:23] <Nalidixic> xoris: are the ubuntu drivers just as good? i got the 7300 go on my laptop
[06:23] <Achillesforce> I have my other PC next to it running with internet hjust fine
[06:24] <urilockz> i was trying to install compiz fusion
[06:24] <urilockz> and i got this error message
[06:24] <Achillesforce> Dug, I already tryed that. But, nothing happend?
[06:24] <urilockz> E: Couldn't find package compizconfig-settings-manager
[06:24] <Xoris> !p2p > `LePGeL[BoY] 
[06:24] <croSmiley> and there is no way to install feisty without edgy right?
[06:24] <nikron> croSmiley: whaaa?
[06:24] <snipex> are any automated backup systems included in ubuntu ? i need to undo something
[06:24] <`LePGeL[BoY] > !p2p
[06:24] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network).  -  BitTorrent: see !torrent  -  Direct connect: try valknut.  -  Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/P2PFileSharing for general information.
[06:24] <urilockz> does anyone know where i can get the settings manager to work? :c
[06:24] <nikron> croSmiley: there's a feisty install disk.
[06:24] <Xoris> Nalidixic: the Ubuntu drivers *are* the drivers from Nvidia. they're simply packaged for Ubuntu, and they will save you a *lot* of trouble on upgrades and stuff, compared with installing them manually. *always* use stuff provided by Ubuntu as .deb packages whenever it's available!
[06:25] <Achillesforce> Dug, is there a wat like "View Wireless network" so that I can choose from the signals? or.. How does it work on this OS?
[06:25] <dug> Achillesforce: do you see a computer or wireless icon on the right side of the top bar?  if you click it or right click it you can configure your wireless connection
[06:25] <b4andafter> jrib: I still does not appear in the search,... i have noticed though that wine is also not available for AMD64,... could it be that its just no available for my arch.?
[06:25] <nikron> urilockz: you need to provide more information
[06:25] <Achillesforce> One sexc Dug :)
[06:25] <Achillesforce> Brb
[06:25] <urilockz> ok
[06:25] <urilockz> uhh
[06:26] <croSmiley> nikron: ah, right. wrong question. there is no way to upgrade from dapper to feisty without edgy?
[06:26] <Jasnation> how do I register a nickname on irc?

[06:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about screens - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:26] <Darkhack> Achilles, it appears as though the DWA-542 doesn't have a native Linux driver which means that you will have to set it up using something called ndiswrapper.
[06:26] <urilockz> then...
[06:26] <urilockz> wget http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb/DD800CD9.gpg
[06:26] <urilockz> then..  sudo apt-key add DD800CD9.gpg
[06:27] <urilockz> then sudo apt-get upgrade
[06:27] <snipex> i entered "killall gnome-panels" command and my wallpaper and all files on dekstop are gone i tried restarting still same what should i do ?
[06:27] <urilockz> and finally
[06:27] <Achillesforce> ndiswrapper <--- Where can I downlaod that from Darkhack ?
[06:27] <urilockz> sudo apt-get -y install compiz compiz-gnome compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-fusion-plugins-extra libcompizconfig-backend-gconf
[06:27] <urilockz> did i miss anything?
[06:27] <Vendeta>   how can I connect to a channel or server on startup of xchat???
[06:27] <nikron> snipex: you need to run nautilus
[06:27] <nikron> snipex: the file manager
[06:27] <TwinX> Averagecdn >> i can send u my xorg.conf as a sample file. Edit where necessary ok?
[06:27] <snipex> and what then ?
[06:27] <atselby> can anyone help me make a certain filename not writable in any form? i'm having a problem with excessive log sizes for timevault, snapshot app, and can't figure out how to get it to clean up it's logs, or stop logging, so im looking for a workaround. thanks

[06:28] <nikron> snipex: nautilus should draw the desktop
[06:28] <`LePGeL[BoY] > there are really some bugs on screenlets
[06:28] <Xoris> atselby: suppose you tried chmod -x filename?
[06:28] <croSmiley> snipex: did you try runnig gnome-panels?
[06:28] <snipex> no
[06:28] <Xoris> atselby: err, i meant -w
[06:28] <sahs> hi
[06:28] <snipex> how do i run nautilus ?
[06:28] <sahs> is this where i can get help for ubuntu?
[06:28] <croSmiley> snipex: can you open console?
[06:28] <snipex> i select places and Desktop
[06:28] <Xoris> sahs: uhm... let me look around... yes, i think so
[06:28] <snipex> u mean terminal ?
[06:28] <aantn> !svn
[06:28] <ubotu> svn is Subversion: an open-source revision control system, which aims to be a compelling replacement for CVS. See http://subversion.tigris.org/
[06:28] <imbecile> I was curious if there are alot of themes for AWN ive only found like 10 so far.. anyone know of any good resources for them?
[06:28] <croSmiley> snipex: yeah
[06:28] <sahs> heh thanks Xoris
[06:29] <snipex> yes i can my panels are there
[06:29] <snipex> but files on my desktop are gone
[06:29] <sahs> I'm having trouble connecting to my repositories in synaptic and apt... any pointers?
[06:29] <sahs> they were working until about a week ago
[06:29] <Achillesforce> Thanks Darkhack..
[06:29] <Xoris> sahs: what kind of trouble?
[06:29] <atselby> Xoris, thanks, couldnt remember which would be right for no write at all. looks like it worked.
[06:29] <Achillesforce> i will try the link you gave me
[06:29] <Achillesforce> I'll be abck in a few
[06:29] <Achillesforce> =)
[06:29] <Pelo> sahs, did you play in your sources.list file ?
[06:29] <sahs> Pelo, no not the sources file
[06:30] <Pelo> sahs, what then ?
[06:30] <croSmiley> snipex: try /home/*you*/Desktop
[06:30] <`LePGeL[BoY] > how can we get rid of the unused packages in a glitch?
[06:30] <sahs> Pelo: but i did play with some other file (whose name i cannot remember) I was trying to make synaptic work under a proxy
[06:30] <snipex> nothing is shown
[06:30] <Xoris> `LePGeL[BoY] : sudo apt-get autoremove (but careful, *look* at what it's going to remove first!)
[06:30] <sahs> Pelo: and it started working under a proxy... but now it won't work via direct connection
[06:30] <TwinX> !deborphan
[06:30] <ubotu> deborphan is a program used to clean up packages that are no longer needed (install from Synaptic/Adept).
[06:30] <dug> Achillesforce: yeah I guess you basically need ndiswrapper and the net5416.inf driver that should be on the cd that came with the wireless card or else on the d-link website
[06:31] <`LePGeL[BoY] > xoris... that command is very dangerous
[06:31] <Pelo> sahs, I suggest you look for the tutorial you used to get synaptic to work under proxy and review the files you messed with
[06:31] <croSmiley> snipex: trash?
[06:31] <snipex> ?
[06:31] <Xoris> `LePGeL[BoY] , no, it isn't unless one messed up his system.
[06:31] <croSmiley> snipex: maybe in trash?
[06:31] <sahs> yeah i'm trying to find that
[06:31] <snipex> nope
[06:31] <Xoris> `LePGeL[BoY] : if it were that dangerous, it wouldn't have been added as a feature in Edgy
[06:31] <snipex> nothing from my desktop is in trash
[06:32] <`LePGeL[BoY] > XOris: well is it the same in fiesty?
[06:32] <Pelo> snipex,  browse your way to  /home/username/Desktop ,  and I mean start from the My computer  "Place"
[06:32] <Xoris> `LePGeL[BoY] : i haven't noticed a difference (aside perhaps from the fact that, in Edgy, autoremove wasn't documented in the man page)
[06:32] <`LePGeL[BoY] > total noob question LOL
[06:32] <Dsbeerf> Hello what the difference between ubuntu/std and ubuntu/alternate ?
[06:32] <Xoris> !alternate > Dsbeerf
[06:33] <snipex> Pelo : nautilus doesnt show anything on my desktop
[06:33] <`LePGeL[BoY] > Xoris: well thanx anyway. gotta try it though
[06:33] <Pelo> Dsbeerf,  the standard has a livecd desktop to try out,  the alternate is just an install cd with a text based installer
[06:33] <snipex> ~/home/boris/Desktop has no files in it
[06:33] <FurryNemesis> Dsbeerf, ubuntu alternate is a text-based install, not a live cd, and is good for systems with low RAM
[06:33] <urilockz> im gonna start from scratch
[06:33] <urilockz> from another guide
[06:33] <Pelo> snipex, did you start from / and brose to the desktop ?
[06:33] <Dsbeerf> and the final install is the same ?
[06:33] <John_> hey hey
[06:33] <snipex> yes i did
[06:33] <Pelo> snipex, thern I guess they are gone
[06:33] <John_> Could nayone herehelp me dentify a font?
[06:34] <Jasnation> '
[06:34] <John_> http://xfce-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=2&id=60641&file1=60641-1.jpg&file2=60641-2.jpg&file3=&name=NNM-WT - the font used for the desktop icons
[06:34] <Pelo> John_, from where ?
[06:34] <Xoris> `LePGeL[BoY] , when you remove a package, all of its configuration files are left in place -- so if you reinstall it again, everything will work as before. so, even if autoremove removes something you wanted to keep, you can always reinstall it. the worst that can happen is that you'll have to reinstall (parts of) the X server, but that won't happen unless you did stuff like removing ubuntu-desktop (and even then)
[06:34] <snipex> how do i use backup ?
[06:34] <snipex> is there any backup at all
[06:34] <urilockz> are there any other fonts you can get for ubuntu
[06:34] <Xoris> !fonts > urilockz
[06:34] <Pelo> !backup > snipex check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[06:34] <cello_rasp> hi. Via network-admin it is possible to define a dns server. however, which config file does this change? it is not /etc/network/interfaces
[06:34] <John_> Any idea Pelo?
[06:34] <sahs> Pelo: i think it might have been etc/apt/apt.conf but now I can't even find it... :(
[06:34] <Dsbeerf> so if i install using ubuntu/std or ubuntu/alternate the final result install is the same right ?
[06:35] <urilockz> thanks xoris!

[06:37] <Pelo> sahs, I can't realy do much for you on this,  I was just giving you avenues of investigation

[06:38] <Random832> is there a program for gnome that will act as an alarm clock or show an alert every 45 minutes etc?
[06:38] <Geekosaur> allorder - use hwclock to synchronize your hardware and software clocks
[06:38] <urilockz> is there a hotkey or something to take a screenshot of just one window?
[06:38] <Pelo> allorder,  that' s the time and date you started the current session
[06:38] <warbler> !ntfs
[06:38] <tabris|away> Random832: i'm sure you can find something that will require an input every 108 minutes.

[06:50] <dug> Jasnation: what is your wireless card make and model
[06:50] <gordboy> Pelo: i've checked all users and all groups. no 122 as uid or gid. any ideas ?
[06:51] <Pelo> zeca, try looking your model up in the forum
[06:51] <belred> anyone know a good web based document management software for ubuntu?
[06:51] <Born_In_Xixax> Jasnation, if so and those links and google indicate there is no good native linux solution, you can try ndiswrapper/ndis-gtk
[06:51] <Pelo> gordboy, nope , that's all I had
[06:51] <effaced> can someone please help me get my nic to obtain an ip, been at this for 2 hours =/
[06:51] <garette> hello all i just wanted to install wine, but my apt says.. "No Installation Candidate", plz help..
[06:51] <zeca> can you tell the forum adress?
[06:51] <Pelo> gordboy,  but I'm no expert
[06:51] <Pelo> zeca,  www.ubuntuforums.org
[06:51] <zeca> ok tahnks
[06:51] <zeca> thanks
[06:52] <keito> garette: have you tried synaptic package manager
[06:52] <Pelo> efface, ifconfig ?
[06:52] <dug> belred: you mean like a wiki, or a content management system?
[06:52] <garette> keito, yes
[06:52] <Jasnation> whenever I plug in my wifi card, all usb ports stop working until I reboot. anyone know why this is?
[06:52] <garette> keito, same answer
[06:52] <sobersabre> hi.
[06:52] <garette> keito, "403 Forbidden" is the error
[06:52] <effaced> Pelo: yea no ip is listed
[06:52] <sobersabre> I am using a T43 laptop with fingerprint reader device.
[06:53] <gordboy> ok. can anyone here who has a line in /etc/group with "122" as the 3rd field, pm me or paste the line. thanks
[06:53] <sobersabre> I did manage to login with fingerprints,
[06:53] <thomas0360> Hello All
[06:53] <taurseas> Has anyone got gutsy to work on a zepto?
[06:53] <Born_In_Xixax> sobersabre, is it true you can only log in with normal credentials PLUS fingerprints?  or can you do fingerprint only
[06:53] <sobersabre> but since I upgraded to feisty, my GDM theme has changed to the default "happy" instead of human or other custom theme.
[06:53] <belred> dug: no, not a wiki. i already have that. i mean a place where people can through documents on a website and link to them to a wiki.  we are currently using sharepoint, and it sucks...
[06:53] <sobersabre> Born_In_Xixax: I don't know what you are talking about...
[06:54] <sobersabre> I am clicking a user.
[06:54] <sobersabre> and then pass the finger.
[06:54] <Pelo> Jasnation, I would look that up in the forum  there is obviously a conflict,  I would sugget you try another port, as in  when I plug one usb device on a port next to another device it gets restarted,  so I use one in hte back of my comp instead of putting everythng in front , if you get my meaning
[06:54] <zeca> i put some posts in that forum but anybody wanswer me.
[06:54] <Born_In_Xixax> ah, cool
[06:54] <Born_In_Xixax> i have a t43 also
[06:54] <sobersabre> Born_In_Xixax: there's a website dedicated to thinkpads... thinkwiki I think.
[06:54] <sobersabre> anyway, guys, I cannot change my GDM theme.
[06:54] <Pelo> sobersabre,   menu > system > admin > login screen  (or window) you can specify the gdm to use in there
[06:54] <dug> belred: I see something called egroupware, haven't used it myself though: http://www.egroupware.org/

[07:15] <ned> ive been trying for the last 4 days to get my network card working under ubunta, with no luck.  It is a dynex DX-WGPNBC wifi. The power led doesnt even light up, but it works fine in xp. I have tried ndiswrapper with no luck.
[07:15] <alexbOrsova> who put the cd in while running windows
[07:15] <dug> Achillesforce: you're trying to get ndiswrapper working, right?  load the cd, then it should show as an icon on desktop.  go in there and see if you can find a driver .inf file net56.. something.inf
[07:16] <Mark_Newb> anyone with a nvidia video card and multimonitors help would be mucho appreciated

[07:16] <alexbOrsova> or who want to make a gradual switch (get used to the apps first, then the os)

[07:17] <alexbOrsova> Davy_Jones: but what if they want to use those apps on windows?
[07:17] <ned> linux isnt even powering the card
[07:17] <Davy_Jones> alexbOrsova: i just don't think the ubuntu install cd is the right place to put those.. they can get them from online.. or better, get them from portableapps.com
[07:17] <newuser> if I install  a server, and than I kill it, will it be active again after the reboot?

[07:18] <Mark_Newb> !nvidia
[07:18] <Ahadiel> newuser, if you installed it through apt-get (or synaptic) then it'll start on boot
[07:18] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:18] <x3rus> one question. It is possible to configure the vnc server using the terminal? I have a computer that doesn't have vnc server set how can I do that from the terminal
[07:18] <alexbOrsova> Davy_Jones: I agree, but it's not my decision is it? :)
[07:18] <Mic__hael> where can I set my compiz cube to rotate when I (middle mouse button) grab and drag the desktop?
[07:18] <newuser> ok
[07:19] <newuser> cheer ahadiel
[07:19] <tuxboy> newuser depend if the program is configured to make that is but if isn't it will, don't do that it's quite simpe restart the machine after that user the command ps -ef | grep program server
[07:19] <Davy_Jones> alexbOrsova: you should've convinced the developers :)
[07:19] <Luke> I updated to 2.6.20-16-generic from -15 and my computer wont boot it. I'm having trouble even *finding* the package on Launchpad to report to. Can someone link me to the correct package?
[07:20] <ned> i dont get why its not even powering the card
[07:20] <alexbOrsova> luke: are you using grub?
[07:20] <Luke> alexbOrsova: yea
[07:20] <newuser> tuxboy, what does grep stend for?
[07:20] <vader1102> now I remember why I hate  setting up newly formatted systems lol, Ya have to reinstall everything
[07:20] <alexbOrsova> luke: enter into the boot menu for grub and choose the -15 kernel
[07:20] <Ryugi> hello
[07:20] <keito> vader1102: roll your own and then you won't
[07:20] <ned> vader yeah and get it to work
[07:20] <Luke> alexbOrsova: I did... that's how I'm talkign to you
[07:20] <dug> alexbOrsova: there is a 'software for starving students' cd with windows versions of many open source apps.  Also there is Wubi, which lets you install Ubuntu from Windows: http://wubi-installer.org/
[07:20] <Luke> alexbOrsova: That doesn't fix the -16 kernel though
[07:21] <alexbOrsova> luke: do you absolutely need the latest kernel?
[07:21] <vader1102> keito, I would, but ya know how that goes lol
[07:21] <ned> whats a cheap wifi card that is known to work in ubuntu
[07:21] <bryanwithay> just seeing what my nick is....
[07:21] <Mark_Newb> nvidia help anyone
[07:21] <Ryugi> i am thinking of replacing my windows operating system with ubuntu and would like to know if ubuntu supports the sound blaster xfi sound cards ?
[07:21] <alexbOrsova> luke: I had similar problems before and I just skipped the kernels which didn't work for me
[07:21] <x3rus> it is possible to configure vino using the terminal?
[07:21] <Luke> alexbOrsova: no. I want to report the bug though so it gets fixed
[07:21] <Mark_Newb> ryugi no it does not
[07:21] <keito> Mark_Newb: ask you question fella ;0)
[07:21] <tuxboy> it search the string that you put in the front of then for example if you want to search a program executing but just the program use ps -ef that show every process running on the pc and with grep you show only that you want to see it's much easier to what you are looking for
[07:21] <Luke> alexbOrsova: it's part of using OSS
[07:21] <Mark_Newb> ryugi> I have an XFI an it does not work
[07:21] <Ryugi> ok
[07:22] <tuxboy> understand?
[07:22] <dug> ned: I think most linksys wireless cards work fine in linux.  I'd stay away from dell or d-link cards or those that typically require ndiswrapper, although ndiswrapper works fine.
[07:22] <IAmOne> DAWGS!
[07:22] <IAmOne> Hi there friends of the internet
[07:22] <Mark_Newb> Keito> have an nvidia 8800GTS wnat to install did the !nvidia to install and then restart and could not get x to start
[07:22] <Luke> alexbOrsova: you have what is called the bystander complex. if we don't report bugs then no one may ever know
[07:22] <darlok> Hmm... strange issue.  When I run OpenOffice.org Writer, all my toolbar icons are gone and replaced with text.  I've looked all over the place in the settings to fix this, but selecting "Icons Only" doesn't help.  What happened and how do I fix it?
[07:22] <alexbOrsova> luke: well then go to the ubuntu homepage and see what they say
[07:22] <radioman_> hey IAmOne ;}
[07:22] <IAmOne> While'st using ftp in terminal, how do I move files between directories?
[07:22] <alexbOrsova> luke: i do report bugs
[07:22] <tominlap> how do i get rid of all the joins and quits in xchat
[07:22] <IAmOne> Hi radioman :)
[07:23] <keito> Mark_Newb: ?
[07:23] <Mark_Newb> yes
[07:23] <Luke> alexbOrsova: the homepage doesn't have bugs. You need to go to launchpad.net
[07:23] <IAmOne> Do you like radio waves? :o
[07:23] <tatters> reporting bugs is ok if it wasnt so so complex to the average joe
[07:23] <Mark_Newb> how do I install my 8800 with dual monitors
[07:23] <maynards-girl> i'm running 6.06 LTS and the other day i did an update and now my VM Server won't start.  How do I get VM back up?
[07:23] <Luke> alexbOrsova: launchpad is canonical's bug tracking system
[07:23] <dug> IAmOne: in ftp you can use the mv and cp commands i believe, haven't used ftp on command line in like 10 years though
[07:23] <alexbOrsova> luke: so then what do you need help with?
[07:23] <keito> Mark_Newb: out of my league mate
[07:23] <Mark_Newb> ok
[07:23] <IAmOne> dug, I thought I tried mv... but I will try again
[07:23] <Mark_Newb> nvidia help anyone
[07:23] <Luke> alexbOrsova: seeing if anyone has info on the bug
[07:24] <slavik`lap> maynards-girl: run the perl config script again, chances are, you need to recompile the network modules
[07:24] <IAmOne> dug: the ftp does not have commands for "cp" and "mv"
[07:24] <dug> darlok: you might try resetting all your openoffice prefs.  Try renaming the .openoffice.org2 folder in your home folder
[07:24] <x3rus> may someone tell me if it is possible to configure a vnc server from a terminal?
[07:24] <IAmOne> x3rus: it is possible, but difficult. I have tried...
[07:24] <slavik`lap> x3rus: yes, if you know where the config file is :)

[07:24] <Mark_Newb> how do I install my 8800 with dual monitors
[07:25] <slavik`lap> maynards-girl: vmware-config ...
[07:25] <x3rus> I am trying to configure vino using the terminal
[07:25] <darlok> dug: Nope.. still the same things
[07:25] <warbler> Mark_Newb: there is a how to on the forums - one min
[07:25] <slavik`lap> maynards-girl: it has to run as root
[07:25] <Mark_Newb> warbler > did that it failed
[07:26] <Mark_Newb> that why i am asking
[07:26] <maynards-girl> slavik`lap: ok thanks.  I'll do a sudo vmware...
[07:26] <sherkin> Hi all, where's the best place to go to check (new) hardware compatibility with linux (before buying ?)
[07:27] <tuxboy> Good bye new user and everyone here
[07:27] <maynards-girl> slavik`lap: it wont let me get past the part where is says it's trying to locate the C headers
[07:27] <dug> darlok: I see the menu tools->customize...,then click menus tab, then click reset button on bottom right, maybe that will work
[07:27] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware
[07:27] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[07:27] <keito> !away
[07:27] <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
[07:27] <NemesisD> anyone have any idea why this ssh server at work i am trying to connect to would just give me "connection reset by peer" EVERY TIME after about 3 minutes being connected?
[07:27] <alexbOrsova> my internet stops working on my ubuntu machine a few minutes after it starts up, can anyone help?
[07:27] <slavik`lap> maynards-girl: install the linux kernel headers :)
[07:28] <maynards-girl> slavik`lap: how do i do that?
[07:28] <darlok> dug: Hmm... nope.
[07:28] <sherkin> thanks Jack_Sparrow
[07:28] <dug> sherkin: what are you buying?  I usually search for the model name and brand along with "ubuntu" or "linux" on google
[07:28] <slavik`lap> maynards-girl: through synaptic or apt ...
[07:28] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[07:28] <darlok> dug: This is rather frustrating, because I never once changed any settings that should have done this...
[07:28] <dug> darlok: sorry, don't know then, but I think there is an #openoffice or similar channel
[07:28] <sherkin> dug : small config: Celeron 331/Asrock 775i945gz ...
[07:28] <keito> away bye
[07:29] <keito> exit
[07:29] <maynards-girl> slavik`lap: what is it called?

[07:30] <sherkin> dug: yes I have googled first ;-)
[07:30] <slavik`lap> Kworth: those actually exist?
[07:30] <ned> ive spent 2 days looking at that sight
[07:30] <Kworth> slavik: yeah i have one
[07:30] <diego_> hi everybody! any italian here?
[07:30] <Kworth> :)
[07:30] <slavik`lap> Kworth: dunno
[07:30] <dug> sherkin: oh if you just want to see if a computer/processor will work with linux, it probably will.
[07:30] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: what model/brand is it?
[07:30] <slavik`lap> !it
[07:30] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[07:30] <maynards-girl> slavik`lap: how do I know which one?
[07:30] <sailerboy> how do i do wpa?
[07:30] <Kworth> fyre..: its a targus one
[07:30] <diego_> tnx
[07:31] <ned> whats a cheap wifi network card that works out the box :p
[07:31] <Kworth> fyre: it is actually a usb docking station with grafic card
[07:31] <slavik`lap> maynards-girl: in terminal do "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[07:31] <fyrestrtr> ned: something from linksys :)
[07:31] <dug> sherkin: oh is that a motherboard
[07:31] <maynards-girl> slavik`lap: ok.. thanks. i'll try that
[07:31] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: a docking station for what? a laptop?
[07:31] <Ashfire908> is there a program/commadn that can got out to the internet and check if a file exists and then report back wether or not it could get it?
[07:31] <Kworth> fyre: yeah a laptop it works great just the grafical thing isnt working yet
[07:31] <slavik`lap> Ashfire908: wget can even download it for you
[07:32] <warbler> Mark_Newb: tried this - http://www.ubuntugeek.com/dual-monitors-with-nvidia.html
[07:32] <fyrestrtr> Ashfire908: telnet can do it, or any script from the command line that can call telnet.
[07:32] <sherkin> dug : yes asrocl mobo. I have to buy several machines, I wouldn't like to mischoose
[07:32] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: do you have a link to the product?
[07:32] <Kworth> fyre: one minute  please
[07:32] <Ashfire908> fyrestrtr, how would i do that?
[07:32] <selinuxium> ompaul: are you still about?
[07:32] <Stwange> sudo op me
[07:33] <new_in_Ubuntu> does anybody know how I can see all the services running on my pc?
[07:33] <slavik`lap> new_in_Ubuntu: I would use nmap :)
[07:33] <Kworth> fyre: http://www.targus.com/us/product_details.asp?sku=ACP50US
[07:33] <fyrestrtr> Ashfire908: telnet someserver 80, then you type GET /path/to/the/file HTTP/1.0 and hit enter twice, then you read the response (that's the long way). There is a short way too....but it requires more ... ermm ... "tweaking".
[07:33] <Ashfire908> Stwange, "sudo op"?
[07:33] <Stwange> worth a try
[07:33] <fyrestrtr> new_in_Ubuntu: install bum
[07:33] <n00dl3> Stwange: o_O
[07:33] <dug> sherkin: sorry, i'm not finding anything about that motherboard and linux, but other asrock motherboards I am finding people who say it works fine
[07:33] <slavik`lap> does bum handle inetd services?
[07:34] <alexbOrsova> can anyone help me with my internet? it stops working a few minutes after ubuntu starts up.
[07:34] <new_in_Ubuntu> fyrestrtr, what is bum?
[07:34] <fyrestrtr> slavik`lap: yes (bum = boot up manager)
[07:34] <Ashfire908> fyrestrtr, is there a way to make a script do that?
[07:34] <fyrestrtr> Ashfire908: I'm sure there are many ways to do that.
[07:34] <slavik`lap> k, I would still prefer nmap :P
[07:34] <dug> sherkin: there might be a #linux channel or something where you can ask if anyone is using asrock motherboards
[07:34] <sherkin> dug: that's good news. I found https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMotherboardsIntelSocket775 , but nothing about asrock there
[07:34] <Ashfire908> fyrestrtr, .........like? lol
[07:35] <new_in_Ubuntu> slavik'lap, what should I write after nmap?
[07:35] <Kworth> fyre: isnt there some tool to find out connected usb grafic cards and tells me the id or something like that?
[07:35] <new_in_Ubuntu> what option?
[07:35] <slavik`lap> nmap -v -v localhost :)
[07:35] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: lsusb
[07:35] <slavik`lap> portscan yourself :)
[07:35] <sherkin> there are plenty #*linux* channels ... #linuxhelp didn't answer
[07:35] <fyrestrtr> Ashfire908: like the one you would write :P
[07:35] <Kworth> fyrestrtr,  yeah but there is just the usb thing listed alltogether not the single devices on it
[07:35] <new_in_Ubuntu> slavik'lap, how can I know my localhost?
[07:36] <dzb> Can somebody tell me the bash command to drop the pid from ps aux | grep into a variable?
[07:36] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: it is probably not usable then.
[07:36] <slavik`lap> new_in_Ubuntu: note that any open ports you see is not necesserily what the internet sees (it would see less ports)
[07:36] <maynards-girl> slavik`lap: THANK YOU! [kiss /]  [kiss /]  [kiss /]  [hug /]  [hug /]  [hug /]  thank you! it's working now
[07:36] <Ashfire908> fyrestrtr, could python do it?
[07:36] <alexbOrsova> can anyone help me with my internet? it stops working a few minutes after ubuntu starts up.
[07:36] <fyrestrtr> Ashfire908: of course :)
[07:36] <teratoma_> i want ubuntu to not delete everything in /tmp after reboot, how do i do that?
[07:36] <sherkin> dug: I'll try #linux
[07:36] <Kworth> fyrestrtr, here the entry: Bus 001 Device 011: ID 0d8c:000c C-Media Electronics, Inc. Audio Adapter
[07:36] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: please be more specific.
[07:36] <Kworth> fyrestrtr, cant I enter this somehow into my config?
[07:36] <slavik`lap> new_in_Ubuntu: localhost is dereferenced to 127.0.0.1 which according to IP spec is the loopback address, meaning yourself :)
[07:36] <new_in_Ubuntu> slavik'lap, how can I know my localhost?
[07:36] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: that's an *audio* adapter; you were talking about a video card.
[07:37] <vader1102> alexbOrsova, just wait patiently, they will get to you if they have the proper info
[07:37] <slavik`lap> just type "localhost"
[07:37] <Kworth> fyrestrtr, okay wait maybe there is an normal device to
[07:37] <n00dl3> dzb: pgrep
[07:37] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: best to check the alsa website and see what (if any) support you can expect.
[07:37] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: everytihng works fine for a few minutes, then after a while I can't browse the web, use xchat, or download updates. The lights on my network card don't even blink.
[07:37] <slavik`lap> maynards-girl: kiss the ubuntu people for a not broken apt... (yum on fedora 6 fetches different architecture headers :()
[07:37] <alexbOrsova> everything*
[07:37] <rabiddachshund> What is the super key?
[07:37] <dug> sherkin: this forum post has someone who had a problem with an asrock 775 vm800 motherboard: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=361237&highlight=asrock&page=5
[07:37] <slavik`lap> rabiddachshund: the windows key
[07:37] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: what kind of network are you on?
[07:37] <Roham> how can I change compiz fusion code manually, I hace compiz icon, but need to change some settings from the console... where can I find the settings file?
[07:37] <rabiddachshund> apparently not.
[07:38] <Kworth> fyrestrtr, isnt alsa  just audio?
[07:38] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: lan
[07:38] <slavik`lap> Roham: I suggest asking in #ubuntu-effects
[07:38] <rabiddachshund> when I assign the windows key to a shortcut it recognizes it as super L
[07:38] <fyrestrtr> Roham: #compizfusion
[07:38] <slavik`lap> rabiddachshund: yes, correct
[07:38] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: you have an *audio* device.
[07:38] <rabiddachshund> oh. same thing?
[07:38] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: i use dhcp to configure my linux machines
[07:38] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: is this machine configured using dhcp?
[07:38] <slavik`lap> rabiddachshund: Super_L is what Linux calls it :)
[07:38] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: yes
[07:38] <Kworth> fyrestrtr, there should be an video device too
[07:39] <rabiddachshund> awesome. Thanks.
[07:39] <Kworth> fyrestrtr, I just dont know which entry it is
[07:39] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: if it cannot be detected, then I doubt it can work.
[07:39] <Random832> well i'd assume there's also super_R
[07:39] <Random832> for the other windows key
[07:39] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: this is the only machine out of 4 more with ubuntu that doesn't work
[07:39] <Kworth> fyre: can you look at the output real quick?
[07:39] <rabiddachshund> other windows key?
[07:39] <citor> anyone ask for /tmp delete?
[07:39] <slavik`lap> rabiddachshund: most keyboards have 2 windows keys
[07:40] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: strange, what is the ifconfig? Are you getting the IP? What do the logs on your dhcp server say?
[07:40] <rabiddachshund> duh.
[07:40] <rabiddachshund> nvm
[07:40] <Ryan52> I set up multiple network locations. Is there a way to switch the current location in a shell script or do you have to use network-admin?
[07:40] <fyrestrtr> slavik`lap: mine has one Windows key, one context menu key.
[07:40] <Random832> two windows keys and a menu key (whose keysym is, oddly enough, Menu)
[07:40] <slavik`lap> fyrestrtr: weird :P
[07:40] <rabiddachshund> "button 3" refers to the mouse scroll wheel, right?
[07:40] <Kworth> fyrestrtr, http://paste.uni.cc/17035 <-- can you see any grafic device there?
[07:41] <slavik`lap> rabiddachshund: yes
[07:41] <Ashfire908> fyrestrtr, know anything that could teach me how to program in python in a hurry?
[07:41] <Random832> right - clicking down on the wheel
[07:41] <slavik`lap> I wish there were more mod keys...
[07:41] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: I'm getting the ip address. The only change after 4-5 minutes is that I can't access the internet
[07:41] <fyrestrtr> rabiddachshund: yes, the *clicking* of the wheel, not scrolling (that's 4 and 5, iirc)
[07:41] <Random832> ['down' meaning towards the desk, not towards you] 
[07:41] <fyrestrtr> Ashfire908: google 'dive into python'
[07:41] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: rebooting gets it back for a few more minutes
[07:41] <Kworth> fyrestrtr,  I have found it: Magic Control Technology Corp
[07:41] <rabiddachshund> damnit. Ubuntu works great with desktops
[07:41] <rabiddachshund> but laptops...not so much
[07:41] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: check your dns settings.
[07:41] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: I have, they're correct
[07:41] <dug> Ashfire908: there are tutorials online or the #python irc channel: http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide
[07:41] <Kworth> fyrestrtr, Now how can I implement the usb card if it has an own entry?
[07:42] <citor> I use Ubuntu in 3 laptios and it works great :)
[07:42] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: also, internet works just fine from same machine from windows
[07:42] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: you might need some magic to make it work :)
[07:42] <citor> *laptops
[07:42] <Kworth> fyrestrtr, dont be silly, isnt there a way?
[07:42] <slavik`lap> citor: same here, except for wifi
[07:42] <Bajo> hi everyone! I've just installed ubuntu but it never asked me to set root password! Is it normal? Do I always have to use sudo command to gain  superuser privileges?
[07:42] <sherkin> thanks dug. The mention seems a bit isolated, not confirmed ... what do you think ?
[07:42] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: no clue .. its a strange one. Can you pastebin some logs?
[07:42] <fyrestrtr> !root > Bajo
[07:42] <citor> Bajo: you can add a root passwd using: sudo passwd root
[07:42] <slavik`lap> Bajo: yes, it is normal, there is no root password (like OSX) therefore the root account is disabled
[07:43] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: pastebin? will you be here in a few minutes?
[07:43] <dug> sherkin: I would bet 97% sure ubuntu would work fine with it :) Ubuntu even works with a cheap e-machine we have at our house :)
[07:43] <fyrestrtr> Kworth: I highly doubt it.
[07:43] <Random832> sudo -s for a root shell
[07:43] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: "Survey says ...... yes".
[07:43] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: i need to reboot, brb
[07:43] <Bajo> ok, thanks folks! strange thing anyway, isn't it?
[07:43] <dug> !root
[07:43] <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
[07:43] <slavik`lap> Bajo: not really
[07:43] <fyrestrtr> Bajo: its quite normal (OSX works the same way)
[07:44] <fredl> how do you install something from backports and how do you verify if there's a backported version?
[07:44] <efface> I plugged my modem directly into my nic and i still cannot obtain an ip via DHCP, can someone please assist me w/ this problem.  I've done plenty of research online and have yet to find a working solution
[07:44] <snipex> i need some1 to translate me following commands so i can do them manually :
[07:44] <snipex> unzip -o ioUrbanTerror_1.0.zip -d ioUrban
[07:44] <snipex> cd ioUrban/Linux-i386
[07:44] <snipex> chmod +x ioUrbanTerror.i386

[07:45] <Bajo> fyrestrtr, slavik`lap, I see.. is it secure anyway?
[07:45] <milanl> !pastebin | snipex
[07:45] <ubotu> snipex: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:45] <slavik`lap> Bajo: yes
[07:45] <fredl> translate?!?! how about reading the manual page?
[07:45] <snipex> well
[07:45] <snipex> ok ok
[07:45] <Bajo> ok, thanks for your help!
[07:45] <sherkin> dug: I think so. thanks :-)
[07:45] <milanl> snipex: why not open terminal and type them?
[07:45] <dug> snipex: what do you mean translate?
[07:45] <snipex> they dont work
[07:45] <slavik`lap> Bajo: the user you specified during install has root access through sudo
[07:45] <fyrestrtr> they are in English.....
[07:45] <danielronin> can anyone here help me determine the chipset i have on my wireles card?
[07:45] <snipex> these commands do not work

[07:45] <slavik`lap> Bajo: read about sudo (man sudo)
[07:46] <fyrestrtr> danielronin: lspci will tell you
[07:46] <Bajo> I'll do!
[07:46] <fredl> danielronin: lspci -v
[07:46] <snipex> unzip:  cannot find or open ioUrbanTerror_Installer_1.0.zip, ioUrbanTerror_Installer_1.0.zip.zip or ioUrbanTerror_Installer_1.0.zip.ZIP.

[07:46] <danielronin> fredl: as root?
[07:46] <[LUCIAN] > http://www.megaupload.com/?d=FQS7PI8A
[07:46] <snipex> but i can find that file and i can open it
[07:46] <fyrestrtr> snipex: then find it?
[07:46] <dug> snipex: you can right click a zip file and select extract here.  go into folder, right click ioUrbanTerror.i386 and select properties, change permission to execute, then double click file and execute
[07:46] <fredl> danielronin, not neccesary
[07:46] <danielronin> it's in a new Asus F3t notebook
[07:46] <[LUCIAN] > whoops, wrong window
[07:46] <snipex> nonono
[07:46] <danielronin> i can'
[07:46] <slavik`lap> danielronin: inside?
[07:46] <snipex> listen me

[07:46] <danielronin> yes
[07:46] <slavik`lap> danielronin: as suggest lspci
[07:47] <danielronin> i mean whatever is included by the manufacturer
[07:47] <milanl> snipex: we do all listen carefully
[07:47] <snipex> unzip -o ioUrbanTerror_installer_1.0.zip -d ioUrban
[07:47] <snipex> where does it extract this zip file ?
[07:47] <snipex> i dont understand -d ioUrban
[07:47] <[LUCIAN] > thats a good game. . .
[07:47] <snipex> where is that location ?
[07:47] <fyrestrtr> snipex: to a directory called ioUrban
[07:47] <snipex> where
[07:47] <[LUCIAN] > whereever the zip file is located
[07:47] <dug> snipex: try "ls" and see if  ioUrbanTerror_1.0.zip is in the list.  It should unzip to the ioUrban sub-folder
[07:47] <fyrestrtr> in the same directory where the zip file is.
[07:47] <snipex> to desktop then
[07:47] <milanl> hm u sure fyrestrtr? unzip --help gives no -d option
[07:47] <[LUCIAN] > is where the subdirectory will be created
[07:48] <Bajo> another strange thing: after an upgrade, ubuntu asked me to reboot my system... does it happen often?
[07:48] <milanl> oh now i see sorry
[07:48] <snipex> http://gaming.gwos.org/doku.php/guides:urbanterror
[07:48] <snipex> im using this guide
[07:48] <snipex> its a little obsolote
[07:48] <dug> Bajo: yeah that happens sometimes where you upgrade something important and central to the system
[07:48] <snipex> so it doesnt work
[07:48] <milanl> Bajo: yes
[07:48] <fyrestrtr> Bajo: very rarely, but it does.
[07:48] <Bajo> ok thank you again
[07:49] <alexbOrsova> fry: www.barbur.net/ifconfig.txt
[07:49] <[LUCIAN] > Bajo, it wont happen as much as it does in the Windows OS
[07:49] <Bajo> [LUCIAN] , I hope it won't :)
[07:50] <Enul> can someone please tell me why i cant log in as root?
[07:50] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: grep eth0 /var/log/messages and also dmesg | grep eth
[07:50] <fyrestrtr> !root > Enul
[07:50] <fyrestrtr> Enul: see the message from the bot
[07:50] <keito> Enul: you use sudo instead
[07:50] <milanl> lol windows OS never asks to reboot after an update... cause it updates on shutdown
[07:50] <piedoggie> looking for  virtualization alternatives to the VM Ware.  What's frustrating me is that every time I get a kernel updates, I need to rebuild vmware tools.  If I don't rebuild in exactly the right order, I lose my ethernet and am well and truly hosed
[07:50] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: doing that now, brb
[07:50] <mapp> akefile:73: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.. Stop.
[07:50] <mapp> mmh:|
[07:50] <milanl> but after manual driver updates... you have to hehe
[07:51] <fyrestrtr> milanl: it does, many times. In fact, it will reboot on its own for some updates if you don't intervene.
[07:51] <dug> piedoggie: there is also something called virtualbox that is an alternative to vmware
[07:51] <keito> WHAT are the best widgets for ubuntu?
[07:51] <piedoggie> k
[07:51] <piedoggie> I will take a look at that
[07:51] <milanl> piedoggy: virtualbox?
[07:51] <fyrestrtr> keito: the ones that are the best fo gnome :D
[07:51] <mapp> what is the kernel path ?
[07:51] <fyrestrtr> mapp: what are you trying to do?
[07:51] <mapp> iw as trying to setup virtualbox mate
[07:51] <piedoggie> I'm mostly concerned about being able to run a server mode virtualization
[07:51] <mapp> and thats the error i got from the setup
[07:51] <fyrestrtr> !virtualbox
[07:51] <ubotu> VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox

[07:53] <mapp> and that was the error, do i need to set the environment KERN_DIR ?
[07:53] <dug> qe2eq1: do you have an entry unde the menu system->administration->bluetooth preferences?  If not, open synaptic package manager and search for bluetooth to see some apps
[07:53] <piedoggie> mapp:  do you need to reinstall anything every time the kernel updates?
[07:53] <fyrestrtr> mapp: you probably want to sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-headers
[07:53] <snipex> fyrestrtr thank you very much
[07:53] <keito> anyone know what these widgets are....... http://bp2.blogger.com/_PqI9QqUU5zo/RtKrhJ7e_fI/AAAAAAAAAx8/Iu73_T8LF4g/s1600-h/compiz+terminal.jpg

[07:58] <mapp> good luck with that mate
[07:58] <dug> jesSon_newbie: you can try a console-based browser like elinks but I don't know that it would work

[07:59] <jesSon_newbie> can install u mean?
[07:59] <bulmer> jesSon_newbie: vmware does not have high resolution emulation, so if the games needed anything with high rez..you're out of luck unless vmware patch maybe is installed
[07:59] <mapp> pie: no mate it has a gui, used it loads throughout uni
[07:59] <milanl> jesSon_newbie: just listen please... you cannot run games through vmware.

[08:00] <piedoggie> this may seem like an unrelated question but is it possible to upgrade a 2 GHz Pentium 4 system to use one of the Intel CPUs with virtualization support?
[08:00] <mapp> jesSon; yes
[08:00] <milanl> keito: i dont really know the performance of those... running vmware workstation now...
[08:00] <piedoggie> As if I can, then I could probably use xen
[08:00] <drackmere> I have a software question for anyone.
[08:00] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: omg, hold on, (thanks for your patience :)

[08:01] <mapp> pie, you can use xen without intel cpu?!
[08:01] <slavik`lap> jesSon_newbie: depends on the game, unreal tournament isn't free, neither is doom3

[08:06] <milanl> jesSon_newbie: i can advise you to read some pages in the wiki
[08:06] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: you might be experiencing a bug in the kernel (it has known to happen).
[08:06] <regis_> hello, i am trying to share my internet connection...dnsmasq doesn't work...and i remember having to edit a config file for firestarter....wich one is it?
[08:06] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: try booting your kernel with pci=noacpi
[08:07] <Ubuntu_Rocks> jesson: so just download it from apt?
[08:07] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: so then the next time a kernel is released it might go away?
[08:07] <mapp> jesSon, do as i said then, rmmod and modprobe
[08:07] <slavik`lap> B_166-ER-X: make sure you are not watching youtube or anything of the sort, then sound should be back
[08:07] <mapp> and see
[08:07] <keito> gloom looks a little rough around the edges
[08:07] <Ubuntu_Rocks> ill do that, thanks
[08:07] <Ubuntu_Rocks> brb
[08:07] <drackmere> dug, okay so I did a search for sharepoint and only came up with M$ info, is this right?
[08:07] <vader1102> bbl have to go and support winsux..
[08:07] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: you can also try it with a different (lower) kernel version. That pci=noacpi option will probably fix it though.
[08:07] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: try it with it and see how it goes.
[08:07] <tux_teste> Hi everyone someone here knows something about klipper the clipboard aplication?  or some aplication that you can make a lot of ctrl C and paste everything with a just one ctrl v
[08:07] <Davy_Jones> keito: i never played it.. i just knew about it
[08:07] <alexbOrsova> fyrestrtr: so then I just add that to the grub menu config file
[08:07] <dug> drackmere: right, i just was wondering if devonthink is anything like sharepoint.  There are various open source document managers like Alfresco and others: http://www.manageability.org/blog/stuff/open-source-document-repository/view
[08:07] <fyrestrtr> alexbOrsova: yeap :)
[08:07] <Davy_Jones> keito: i'm addicted to tremulous tho

[08:09] <Nolt_> Hi
[08:09] <keito> BobSapp: you like it?
[08:09] <mapp> same, im gonna check openarena, sounds exciting;p
[08:09] <keito> Davy_Jones: worth a blast
[08:09] <BobSapp> openarena, its basically quake 3 arena
[08:09] <dug> i like assaultcube a little
[08:09] <BobSapp> and quake 3 arena was awesome
[08:09] <keito> BobSapp: yep 80)
[08:09] <RkyRaccoon> anyone help me with wireless problems?
[08:09] <BobSapp> i used to tourney that

[08:10] <darkempress> ok, one of my local machines wont allow me to ssh in from 192.168.1.5, but it will let me ssh in from 192.168.1.3 can anyone tell me why it's refusing my connection?
[08:10] <fyrestrtr> Nolt_: #beryl
[08:10] <BobSapp> keito: probably lemme check
[08:10] <Davy_Jones> quake 3 arena is still one of the most played multiplayer games
[08:10] <Ubuntu_Rocks> well starcraft is
[08:10] <mapp> darkempress, fw rules? hosts.allow/deny|?

[08:11] <fyrestrtr> Starcraft II -- the only game worth waiting for (oh, and Halo 3)
[08:11] <drackmere> dug, outstanding, I will look through the links, thanks.  One more question (the basis for the questions is that I am running out of patience with Apple, the hardware is just to expensive for me, and since I have been using Ubuntu for several years I am trying to find similar applications to several that I use regularly, if I can find them I am Linux bound completely).  Is there a product which is similar to EndNote?  With the fea
[08:11] <Ubuntu_Rocks> well starcraft ever be ported to linux?
[08:11] <BobSapp> lol maybe
[08:11] <BobSapp> doesnt SC1 work under wine?
[08:11] <Ubuntu_Rocks> yes
[08:12] <dug> drackmere: yes, there are free/open source alternatives to endnote.  Like Zotero (a firefox extension), but see also http://edresearch.wikispaces.com/Citation+Management
[08:12] <dug> drackmere: I meant to say "I" like Zotero
[08:12] <Davy_Jones> it's not ported iirc
[08:12] <keito> BobSapp: you get online with it?
[08:13] <BobSapp> lol im still installing it
[08:13] <BobSapp> nets slow today
[08:13] <darkempress> mapp, ok, hosts.allow didn't have the right ip, i changed it..now how to i restart portmap so it'll pick up the new setting?
[08:13] <keito> BobSapp: k

[08:13] <MoTec> I'm trying to get DVD playback working.  I followed the instructions here: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability but Totem is giving me the error "There is no plugin to handle this movie."
[08:14] <MoTec> Anyone now how to fix it?

[08:14] <andre_pl> i just popped a hard drive into my linux box that should be full of data, but fdisk isn't showing any partitions on it.  The computer that was using this HD Suffered a motherboard failure, but as far as I can tell the drive is still good. how can I try to recover the data?
[08:14] <xamox> is there something like the services-admin taht I can use from the command line? I thought I had used something before
[08:14] <drackmere> dug, ironic, since I have been using Zotero for about 2 months.  It has limitations with interoperability with other programs (i.e. word processors) but the overall features are quite good (am I missing something in the usage?  Work takes a lot of time and I have not had the chance for an in depth workflow with it).
[08:14] <fyrestrtr> xamox: update-rc.d ?
[08:14] <keito> lorien123: mplayer
[08:14] <jrib> xamox: sysv-rc-conf or 'man update-rc.d'
[08:15] <milanl> lorien123: i use gxine myself
[08:15] <drackmere> If I remember correctly, Bibus is no longer in development.
[08:15] <lorien123> mplayer cannot play the thing
[08:15] <dug> drackmere: Zotero recently released updates I think to make it work with microsoft word or openoffice, but see also for example bibus or jabref for desktop apps.  But zotero is very popular now
[08:15] <jrib> MoTec: have you tried closing totem, removing the disc and reinserting?
[08:15] <dug> gotta go
[08:15] <MoTec> jrib: let me try
[08:16] <BobSapp> keito: yeah i can see games that are online
[08:16] <BobSapp> keito: but when i try to connect it tells me client/server version mismatch
[08:16] <BobSapp> probably theve updated openarena
[08:16] <keito> BobSapp: 2 secs I'll try again
[08:16] <lorien123> it is abou vob files

[08:16] <dzb> can somebody help me with this little shell script? http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/14457/
[08:17] <milanl> lorien123: try gxine
[08:17] <keito> thomas_: np
[08:17] <milanl> lorien123: and did you already install things like libdvdcss2?
[08:17] <keito> thomas_: I just changed my monitor yesterday and had to edit those values
[08:17] <lorien123> what is this?
[08:17] <Filthpig> Hi, I have both xubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop installed, but it's quite annoying that they interfere with each other. I.e. I have avant installed for use in gnome, but it also shows up in xfce, which is not desirable. Beryl/Compiz also uses the same theme for the xfce session as the gnome session.. Can I fix this, so gnome and xfce work indepentently?
[08:17] <MoTec> jrib: same.. "There is no plugin to handle this movie."  Do I need something from the medibuntu repository?  I just have main, universe, restricted, and multiverse...
[08:17] <milanl> lorien123: its needed to play dvds
[08:17] <keito> thomas_: have you edited them?
[08:17] <lorien123>  libdvdcss2 is not in the repositories
[08:18] <milanl> !dvd | lorien123
[08:18] <ubotu> lorien123: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[08:18] <jrib> MoTec: what does 'apt-cache policy libdvdcss2' return?
[08:18] <thomas_> Keito: I tried, but like you said I think i need to do it through sudo as trying to modify the file did nothing
[08:18] <keito> thomas_: in the terminal by useing "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:18] <BobSapp> keito: yeah i joined a game
[08:18] <BobSapp> but some servers are updated it seems
[08:18] <milanl> instructions for libdvdcss2 above
[08:18] <keito> thomas_: do the above ^^^^^
[08:18] <Dawidek> ??
[08:19] <MoTec> jrib: Installed: 1.2.5-1
[08:19] <thomas_> Keito: ok

[08:19] <jrib> MoTec: how about the gstreamer packages listed here: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/codecs.html
[08:19] <dirak1> hi everyone..
[08:20] <keito> BobSapp: "no response from master server"
[08:20] <dirak1> i have a problem in gutsy it wont mount devices..
[08:20] <dirak1> http://pastebin.ca/679119
[08:20] <dirak1> that is the output..
[08:20] <MoTec> jrib: I thought I'd be using xine backend instead of gstreamer.  I'll try that, tho.
[08:20] <jrib> !gutsy | dirak1
[08:20] <thomas_> Keito, monitor is still set to generic and resolution is 28-51 43-60
[08:20] <ubotu> dirak1: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[08:20] <Ubuntu_Rocks> im playing with a web server i built seeing how it all works, i got yabb fourm which is cgi based running ok. my question is this, i hae a couple web games to put on my server which is php, any tips as to where or what to do? thanks in advance.
[08:21] <marus> #ubuntu-pl
[08:21] <keito> thomas_: change the settings to what they should be
[08:21] <jrib> MoTec: erm, see which is installed: totem-xine or totem-gstreamer?
[08:21] <dirak1> ubotu: jrib oh..
[08:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jrib oh.. - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:21] <keito> BobSapp: could you pastebin your ~/.openarena/baseoa/q3config.cfg
[08:21] <dirak1> i guess i shouldnd be using gutsy,,
[08:21] <MoTec> jrib: I did do the: sudo apt-get install totem-xine
[08:22] <keito> BobSapp: in fact that is useless to me. i need to know the master server ip
[08:22] <Zenom> what is the best fs to run for a webserver on ubuntu?
[08:22] <jrib> MoTec: and it was successful?  do apt-cache policy totme-xine just to make sure
[08:22] <dirak1> but anyway it was working perfectly until i did other upgrade in top of it,,
[08:22] <keito> BobSapp: its in the settings in openarena (i think)
[08:22] <jrib> dirak1: you should be asking for support in #ubuntu+1 :)
[08:23] <dirak1> jrib:  nice thx
[08:23] <MoTec> jrib: yep.. looks like it.  apt-cache policy totem-xine returns 2.18.1-0ubuntu3
[08:23] <jrib> MoTec: libxine1-ffmpeg installed?
[08:24] <Dawidek> fyrestrtr: my resolution is 1280x1024
[08:24] <MoTec> jrib: no.  let me install it :)
[08:24] <keito> thomas_: 28-51 43-60 is NOT your resolution they are your HorizSync & VertRefresh settings
[08:24] <thomas_> keito, hehe oops
[08:25] <jrib> MoTec: libxine1-gnome and libxine1-plugins too maybe (why not?)
[08:25] <keito> thomas_: np lol
[08:25] <thomas_> keito, sorry this is all new to me
[08:25] <dzb> can somebody help me with thios little shell script? http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/14457/

[08:25] <MoTec> jrib: looks like libxine1-ffmpeg was good enough :)
[08:26] <MoTec> Thanks!
[08:26] <thomas_> keito, you said something about changing it under display?

[08:37] <cookiefursec> if nothing is wrong with my ram, then what could be the cause of my PC freezing
[08:37] <cookiefursec> ?
[08:37] <keito> cookiefursec: how oftne
[08:37] <nickrud> dawidjj, try system->prefs>screen resolution, that's set separately from xorg.conf
[08:37] <keito> often #
[08:37] <cookiefursec> everytime I go online
[08:38] <keito> cookiefursec: have you ran memtest86
[08:38] <cookiefursec> I am running it now
[08:38] <dawidjj> but I have only 55 hz
[08:38] <keito> cookiefursec: only online?
[08:38] <Soup_> anyone here use freeNX?
[08:38] <cookiefursec> not only online
[08:38] <astro76> chuy_max, I think you an "open location..." from within gedit and enter a URI, but the easiest way is through Places->Connect to server..., add a ssh server that way and then you can just open with Text Editor through the file manager
[08:38] <cookiefursec> but mostly
[08:38] <keito> cookiefursec: when then?
[08:38] <thomas_> keito, should i restart now?
[08:38] <cookiefursec> when I run an app, it freezez
[08:38] <keito> cookiefursec: have you ran memtest86
[08:38] <Soup_> of NX
[08:38] <cookiefursec> I am running memtest now
[08:38] <keito> thomas_: restart x yes
[08:38] <ChakRa> is it possible to access sftp through a web browser? if not how can i setup a ftp on ubuntu to be able to be accessed through web browser? help would be much appreciated
[08:39] <WaxyFresh>  hi im haveing some xorg problems,every time i start the ubuntu logo shows fine but the login screen just jumps up and down like a tv with a broken v-hold.my card is:vga compatible intell 82810e dc-133....
[08:39] <keito> thomas_: did you edit it with sudp
[08:39] <keito> sudo
[08:39] <cookiefursec> I can move the mouse, but I can not click, type or anything else
[08:39] <cookiefursec> only move the arrow
[08:39] <dawidjj> nickrud, In preferences I have only 50 54 55 56 hz
[08:39] <Soup_> I just want to be able to connet to ubuntu from another4 pc and it wont do it
[08:39] <keito> cookiefursec: do a thorough test with that
[08:39] <Soup_> Linux has too many issues still
[08:39] <thomas_> keito, yes
[08:39] <keito> cookiefursec: could be your hard drive packing in
[08:39] <keito> thomas_: cool you should be ok with that
[08:39] <Soup_> a million different ways to do things and they change to fast..
[08:39] <nickrud> dawidjj, that's strange.  a sec
[08:40] <cookiefursec> Ok
[08:40] <manduski> hey guys, i'm at home and i want to transfer files from my laptop to dektop. What kind of transfter has the fastest transfer rate? I'm not really concerned about security since i'm not connected to the internet
[08:40] <cookiefursec> I will finish memtest and tell you
[08:40] <thomas_> keito, Thanks again, I appreciate your help and time.
[08:40] <keito> cookiefursec: is your processor fitted correctly?
[08:40] <keito> thomas_: anytime
[08:40] <cookiefursec> yes
[08:40] <cookiefursec> it woks on other os
[08:40] <WaxyFresh> manduski: dcc or shh which ever works better
[08:41] <tominlap> how do i tile my xchat windows ,
[08:41] <keito> cookiefursec: did you check the integrity of the ubuntu disc before install
[08:41] <cookiefursec> yes
[08:41] <cookiefursec> I installed from the same disk on my laptop
[08:41] <cookiefursec> and it works
[08:41] <manduski> WaxyFresh: but ssh has slow transfer rate. Is FTP a way to do that also?
[08:41] <keito> cookiefursec: strange, if it was your mem or hdd then it should affect your other os too
[08:41] <nickrud> dawidjj, what does    xrandr    in a terminal say about your resolutions
[08:41] <Bsims> I am having and odd problem, bittorrent is causing my connection to drop
[08:41] <keito> cookiefursec: so long as they are on the same hdd that is
[08:41] <jstarcher> how can I add timestamps to ircII?
[08:42] <WaxyFresh> manduski: are both conected to the interweb?
[08:42] <keito> interweb lol
[08:42] <cookiefursec> can anybody teach me how to use ftp
[08:42] <cookiefursec> ?
[08:42] <keito> cookiefursec: get fillzilla
[08:42] <Streetsurfer> get gftp
[08:42] <keito> filezilla
[08:42] <manduski> WaxyFresh: i'm not sure i know what interweb is
[08:42] <keito> lol
[08:42] <dawidjj> nickrud, *0   1280 x 1024   ( 331mm x 240mm )  *50   54   55   56
[08:42] <keito> or gftp
[08:42] <keito> that's good too
[08:42] <nickrud> dawidjj, that's the only line!?
[08:43] <WaxyFresh> manduski: internet,sorry
[08:43] <dawidjj> noooo
[08:43] <Streetsurfer> on that note. anyone here with an ATI card that has any luck with TV (S-video) output?
[08:43] <WaxyFresh>  hi im haveing some xorg problems,every time i start the ubuntu logo shows fine but the login screen just jumps up and down like a tv with a broken v-hold.my card is:vga compatible intell 82810e dc-133....

[08:43] <milanl> Streetsurfer : yes me
[08:43] <milanl> Streetsurfer: oh no sorry
[08:43] <Streetsurfer> ;p
[08:43] <RkyRaccoon> can anyone help me with my wifi issue?
[08:43] <Digital_Pioneer> What's Ubuntu's dial-up connection program?
[08:43] <manduski> WaxyFresh: Yes they both can access the internet, but i can modify if its risky
[08:43] <dawidjj> nickrud, only 0 line is 1280x1024
[08:43] <keito> Streetsurfer: mine appears to output in pal-n or m which is NO USE WHATSOEVER
[08:43] <psiko_> im using GDM as login manager, and every login apper a error msg saying: [the %home/.dmrc file need 644 permission and owned by user] ..... but i also do chmod 644 ./.dmrc and chown $myusername ./dmrc and the error msg continue
[08:43] <milanl> Streetsurfer: thought you was talking about something else
[08:43] <dawidjj> it's highest resolution
[08:43] <Digital_Pioneer> I use KDE personally, and I'm trying to help a friend. I don't know GNOME apps.
[08:44] <Streetsurfer> hehe np
[08:44] <keito> Streetsurfer: don't know how to change it either
[08:44] <Streetsurfer> i tried to update the ATI drivers to 8.40 and it screwed up my whole system (XGL)
[08:44] <nickrud> dawidjj, could you put the output of that,  the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log , lspci & /etc/X11/xorg.conf on a pastebin?
[08:44] <Streetsurfer> so im back to the repositories
[08:44] <keito> Streetsurfer: i use the open ati drivers
[08:44] <Streetsurfer> but that doesnt have the Catalyst Control Center
[08:44] <WaxyFresh> manduski: put all the files into a zip and use megaupload.com
[08:44] <keito> Streetsurfer: neither does mine
[08:44] <Streetsurfer> how do open ati drivers compare with fglrx
[08:45] <keito> Streetsurfer: i just start the box with the svideo plugged in
[08:45] <Streetsurfer> hmmm open drivers have auto-detect i guess
[08:45] <milanl> Streetsurfer: the open ati drivers are not really good performance in 3D
[08:45] <psiko_> im using GDM as login manager, and every login apper a error msg saying: [the %home/.dmrc file need 644 permission and owned by user] ..... but i do chmod 644 ./.dmrc and chown $myusername ./dmrc and the error msg continue ... . someone know about it???
[08:45] <keito> Streetsurfer: i have compiz running fine (fusion) openarena runs cool though other games struggle
[08:45] <keito> Streetsurfer: gonna jump ship to nvidia ASAHP
[08:46] <Streetsurfer> well, i cant even run games with compiz fusion running with fglrx anyway no direct rendering at all
[08:46] <keito> Streetsurfer: no i switch compiz off for games
[08:46] <manduski> Streetserfer: How do you use gftp?
[08:46] <keito> Streetsurfer: and blender
[08:46] <Streetsurfer> I wanna get an nvidia too but my AGP x1600 pro is still decent so it doesnt seem worthwhile
[08:46] <thomas_> keito, that worked. Thanks alot
[08:46] <Streetsurfer> manduski: what u trying to do
[08:46] <WaxyFresh>  hi im haveing some xorg problems,every time i start the ubuntu logo shows fine but the login screen just jumps up and down like a tv with a broken v-hold.my card is:vga compatible intell 82810e dc-133....
[08:46] <keito> thomas_: great stuff
[08:46] <keito> thomas_: i try my best
[08:47] <manduski> Streetsurfer: Just copy my music and photo files from one computer to the other one
[08:47] <bulmer> psiko mine has 600 perms for my user
[08:47] <keito> thomas_: ps back that xorg.conf up
[08:47] <Streetsurfer> well, do either of the computers have a ftpd installed?
[08:47] <milanl> Streetsurfer: it must be possible to get direct rendering with fglrx and x1600
[08:47] <Streetsurfer> not via XGL :(
[08:47] <jonathan__> hey guys
[08:47] <Streetsurfer> i get direct rendering with regular xsession though
[08:47] <milanl> Streetsurfer: no that not
[08:47] <nickrud> WaxyFresh, try sudo    dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg   and try the vesa driver
[08:48] <milanl> Streetsurfer: nvidia support is mucccchhhh better
[08:48] <Streetsurfer> AAA amd ati assholes >.>
[08:48] <jonathan__> would there be a reason why feisty would not detect my broadcom chipset?  lspci shows up nothing.  It picks it up randomly and it then works fine through ndiswrapper, otherwise, I have no wifi.
[08:48] <keito> I WANT AN NVIDIA!!!!!!!!!!
[08:48] <nickrud> anyone wanna buy a laptop with an ati 200m? :)
[08:48] <snipex> chmod: cannot access `ioUrbanTerror.i386': No such file or directory
[08:48] <snipex> why ???
[08:48] <Streetsurfer> jonathan__ go ubuntuforums and get the broadcom chipset firmware script
[08:48] <WaxyFresh> nickrud: what setting for resolution
[08:48] <milanl> streetsurfer: lol my next computer is gonna be intel + nvidia!! lol so no amd anymore
[08:49] <snipex> why cant it accesS it ?? it is there
[08:49] <Streetsurfer> intel + ati here

[08:49] <jonathan__> Streetsurfer, is it a common issue lately?
[08:49] <dawidjj> nickrud, (II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "1280x1024_60" (II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "1280x1024" - that's two lines at the end
[08:49] <milanl> does anyone know if the 8600GTS is well-supported now?
[08:49] <WaxyFresh> keito: its okay microsoft was just a bad dream...
[08:49] <nickrud> WaxyFresh, what resolution do you usually run in windows?
[08:49] <thomas_> keito, sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup???
[08:49] <maccam94> jonathan__: when it disappears, check the output of dmesg
[08:50] <keito> thomas_: that'll do it yes
[08:50] <nickrud> dawidjj, ok, but there's more, like how the chip is getting probed, the driver you're using, etc. Those files will give me something to sink my teeth in
[08:50] <manduski> Streetsurfer: I'm just trying to transfter all my music and photos from one computer to the other one. I just find SSH to be way to slow on the transfer rate
[08:50] <WaxyFresh> nickrud: an angry one,i havent used windows in years...im converting a heathen box over to the light side for a friend.its a older computer
[08:50] <keito> WaxyFresh: m$... don't say that name
[08:50] <Colbrac> hey all, just upgraded to gutsy tribe 5; wlan0 (ra2500) hangs pc on connecting to WEP wlan using WEP ascii. Worked like a charm on Feisty, happens both for roaming as well as manual conf. Any suggestions?
[08:51] <nickrud> WaxyFresh, then start with 1280x1024, but enable 1024x768 as well
[08:51] <Streetsurfer> manduski: well u need a ftp server open
[08:51] <snipex> how can i install an .i386 file on home/boris/.Games/UrbanTerror/q3ut4/Linux/ioUrbanTerror.i386
[08:51] <keito> right all I am off to spend some quality time with my missus, have fun
[08:51] <thomas_> keito, cool. I am excited about the possibilities of leaving windows behind. just need to get familar with the basics in linux

[08:52] <woodjrx> Hello, everyone... I'm new to linux, and I was wondering if someone would be able to help me get my wireless up and running?
[08:52] <nickrud> Avec, you can find the executables for most packages by typing in a terminal,  dpkg -L <pkg> | grep bin
[08:52] <Streetsurfer> manduski: u need either of the computers running a ftp server. otherwise u might be better off just networking the two
[08:52] <keito> Avec: sound & video
[08:52] <jonathan__> maccam94, checked there, this is what I got, ndiswrapper loads up but ... [  101.778670]  lp: driver loaded but no devices found
[08:52] <Streetsurfer> so, nobody else had luck with fglrx and s-video (tvout) ?

[08:53] <jonathan__> Streetsurfer, have you got a direct link?
[08:53] <manduski> Streetsurfer: How do you network the two and is the transfer rate faster?
[08:54] <Streetsurfer> manduski: hmm i have no luck with that. :D better off searching forms for FTP
[08:54] <webmeister> Hello
[08:54] <cookiefursec> how do i set uo the server in gftp so my friend can connect to my computer
[08:54] <webmeister> Is there a German Support Channel for Ubuntu anywhere?
[08:54] <cookiefursec> ?
[08:54] <Streetsurfer> jonathan__: ubuntuforums search. look for broadcome chipset script
[08:54] <Streetsurfer> gftp doesnt support servers
[08:55] <sauvin> Can anybody give me some idea of why Noatun would suddenly stop outputting sound?
[08:55] <Streetsurfer> u have to get a proper ftpd app
[08:55] <cookiefursec> then what?
[08:55] <cookiefursec> i installed gftp
[08:55] <woodjrx> I've tried going through all the help files - the wifi card is working - I just can't seem to connect to my router that has WEP enabled.
[08:55] <woodjrx> I've even tried wicd
[08:55] <maikeru> - I'm now listening to: Sugarcult - Bouncing Off The Walls ( 2:21 )
[08:55] <cookiefursec> What do i have to do so my friend can connect to my computer and get the files I pput
[08:55] <soneil> webmeister: #ubuntu-de  looks good
[08:56] <woodjrx> !wifi
[08:56] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:56] <jonathan__> Streetsurfer, quite a few broadcom results.  Any specific one?  I don't have a problem with ndiswrapper, its the fact that the actual chipset is not found during boot up time.
[08:56] <webmeister> thx
[08:57] <nickrud> dawidjj, and the rest?
[08:57] <cookiefursec> can u pls help me

[08:59] <jv1975> hi all i installed feasty can someone helop me install java??
[08:59] <cookiefursec> ubuntu 7.04
[08:59] <dawidjj> nickrud, I don't know where rest files are
[08:59] <jonathan__> Streetsurfer, you don't know what I am trying to do.  the problem is not the installer.  The problem is the fact that the kernel is not even detecting that the chipset is plugged in.  lspci produces nothing.  ndiswrapper is not the issue,
[09:00] <bulmer> jv194  i would think   sudo apt-get install java-jre    something like this..can remember exact java-jre option
[09:00] <Streetsurfer> oooh
[09:00] <Streetsurfer> hmmm
[09:00] <Streetsurfer> i would check if its plugged in properly then
[09:00] <nickrud> dawidjj, your xorg.conf, it has an error in Virtual in 24bit display
[09:00] <jv1975> i tried that but that doesnt work bulmer
[09:00] <cookiefursec> bulmer: 7.04 ubuntuu
[09:00] <Streetsurfer> otherwise it should at least display on lspci
[09:00] <nickrud> dawidjj, 1280x1024 it should be
[09:00] <Streetsurfer> that means its either broke or not connected it seems
[09:00] <jonathan__> Streetsurfer, its a laptop
[09:00] <bulmer> cookiefursec: try  ssh localhost  and then log on
[09:00] <snipex> how can i install an .i386 file on home/boris/.Games/UrbanTerror/q3ut4/Linux/ioUrbanTerror.i386  , what command ?
[09:01] <cookiefursec> how?
[09:01] <dawidjj> nickrud, hmmmm
[09:01] <Streetsurfer> jonathan__ built in wifi card?
[09:01] <dawidjj> - I will try it
[09:01] <jonathan__> Streetsurfer, I need to reboot a few times before it detects it.  its really weird, but it is definitely the kernel, yes it is a built in wifi ard

[09:02] <Streetsurfer> i would try in that case to run the liveCD
[09:02] <Streetsurfer> and see if its deteceted
[09:02] <bulmer> jv1975: sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin sun-java5-jre
[09:02] <jonathan__> Streetsurfer, when it is detected then ndiswrapper picks it up perfectly
[09:02] <Streetsurfer> it could be an error in installation >.<

[09:04] <Novazeon> Thanks anyway. ^_^
[09:04] <Novazeon> Bye.
[09:04] <bulmer> cookiefursec: where you able to login via ssh to your localhost?
[09:04] <tzadik> my CD/DVD is working in dapper but not in feisty
[09:04] <tzadik> any ideas?
[09:04] <lostboyz> look at your etc fstab
[09:05] <bulmer> tzadik: you mounted it?
[09:05] <tzadik> how do i tell?
[09:05] <jv1975> i try to install java6 but it gives an error
[09:05] <[LUCIAN] > what error
[09:05] <tzadik> it is in the Computer
[09:05] <jv1975>     http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/
[09:05] <jv1975> now and download.  The file should be owned by root.root and be copied
[09:05] <jv1975> to /tmp.
[09:05] <jv1975> [Press RETURN to try again, 'no' + RETURN to abort] 
[09:05] <tzadik> should i try "mount"?
[09:05] <[LUCIAN] > are you using sudo?
[09:05] <snipex> how can i install an .i386 file on home/boris/.Games/UrbanTerror/q3ut4/Linux/ioUrbanTerror.i386  , what command ?
[09:05] <bulmer> tzadik yes
[09:06] <nickrud> jv1975, you don't want that one, really. The ones in the repos from ubuntu work just fine
[09:06] <[LUCIAN] > just type no. . . i think that is just for documentation
[09:06] <jv1975> yes i use sudo
[09:06] <tzadik> nothing there that looks like the cd
[09:06] <jv1975> but on my terminal i cant leave the desktop dir
[09:06] <tzadik> also when i click on it in Computer it says "can't mount"
[09:07] <bulmer> tzadik:  do it as root or use sudo
[09:07] <tzadik> what command?
[09:07] <Yarcanox> I installed the mingw crosscompiler and can't find it now
[09:07] <snipex> how can i install an .i386 file on home/boris/.Games/UrbanTerror/q3ut4/Linux/ioUrbanTerror.i386  , what command ?
[09:07] <raynerd> just out of interest, seriously, can you use a live disk to override a network internet connection settings. I`m a teacher and about to hand out a live Edubuntu Cd but i`d just worried about the consequences for students who know more about linux than me!!
[09:07] <snipex> please help me
[09:07] <tzadik> what's the mount command for the cd
[09:07] <Streetsurfer> anyone know how to get ati cards to enable s-video out? (tvout)
[09:07] <Yarcanox> the default search in the taskbar at the top didn't return the place of the executable
[09:07] <Yarcanox> just some useless stuff (notes and makefiles of other programs about mingw)
[09:07] <nickrud> jv1975, type in  the terminal:  sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin   . That will install java 6 for you with no pain :)
[09:08] <bulmer> tzadik you have to know which /dev/xxxx is your cd/dvd mapped to, then,  moutn /dev/hdd1 /media/cdrom  for example
[09:08] <tzadik> how do i tell which /dev it is?
[09:08] <nickrud> raynerd, if the have a sudo or root password, yes
[09:08] <bulmer> Yarcanox: use the find command on a terminal
[09:09] <Yarcanox> find: mingw: No such file or directory
[09:09] <nickrud> raynerd, or know the passwords to the network hardware
[09:09] <Yarcanox> do I need sudo or something?
[09:09] <bulmer> tzadik for one you should prefix your responses to me with my nick
[09:09] <tzadik> bulmer ok
[09:09] <bulmer> Yarcanox: man find..
[09:09] <tzadik> bulmer are you from baltimore :)
[09:09] <bulmer> well not anymore
[09:10] <bulmer> tzadik are you from baltimore?
[09:10] <raynerd> hummm, is it a bad move then?
[09:10] <tzadik> bulmer i see both my cd drives in the Computer window
[09:10] <tzadik> bulmer no but i live there
[09:10] <nickrud> Yarcanox, how'd you install it?
[09:10] <st0n3cutt3r> where are background images for the desktop kept in ubuntu?
[09:10] <tzadik> bulmer i have been here since 99
[09:10] <Yarcanox> apt-get install mingw32
[09:11] <Yarcanox> mingw32-binutils and minw32-runtime are installed too, I checked it
[09:11] <bbengs> how's all the peeps doing?
[09:11] <bulmer> tzadik ah okay..i used to lived in catonsville
[09:11] <tzadik> bulmer i'm in the park heights area, near pikesville
[09:12] <nickrud> Yarcanox,  dpkg -L mingw32 will show all the files;  adding  | grep bin   to the end of the command will show you the executables
[09:12] <bulmer> tzadik i've been to that area..lots of jewish orthodox
[09:12] <tzadik> bulmer yeah, like me :)
[09:12] <bulmer> tzadik.. anyhow..you type mount and you can not see any /dev/cdrom ?
[09:13] <Yarcanox> /usr/bin/i586-mingw32msvc-gcc   /usr/bin/i586-mingw32msvc-gcc-3.4.5
[09:13] <tzadik> bulmer no
[09:13] <Yarcanox> which of them am I supposed to use? o.O
[09:13] <nickrud> Yarcanox, and /usr/share/doc/mingw32 will have some docs
[09:13] <bulmer> tzadik: type this  dmesg|grep cd
[09:13] <bulmer> tzadik: type this  dmesg|grep cd or dvd
[09:13] <tzadik> bulmer i can boot feisty from the cd so obviouly feisty can recognize it but once i installed it on the hard drive, it can't
[09:14] <Vendeta> hi guys ...................is there a way to keep permissions to folders mounted in ntfs partition ??
[09:14] <nickrud> Yarcanox, ls -l /usr/bin/i586-mingw32mscv*  try that. They're probably the same :)
[09:14] <bulmer> tzadki try and see if df -h  will tell you your cd
[09:14] <Yarcanox> nickrud I want to compile gcc C code for windows
[09:14] <nickrud> Yarcanox, I know what mingw is, but have never used it. That doc directory for the package probably can tell you how
[09:15] <t3soro> how would I go about simulating a keypress in X from the command line? (Like if I want to simulate XF86AudioPause by running a command)
[09:15] <Yarcanox> hm yes maybe
[09:15] <tzadik> bulmer lots of ata2.00: cmd a0/01:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 tag 0 cdb 0x43 data
[09:15] <Yarcanox> I will just try one of the two
[09:15] <tzadik> in dmesg
[09:15] <Yarcanox> maybe it doesn't matter
[09:15] <Streetsurfer> anyone know how to get ati cards to enable s-video out? (tvout)
[09:15] <bulmer> tzadik thats why i suggested grep cd
[09:15] <tzadik> blumer df-h has nothing
[09:15] <tzadik> bulmer i did grep cd
[09:15] <Vendeta> how to assign permissions to folders mounted in ntfs partition ??
[09:15] <Vendeta> anyone
[09:15] <bulmer> tzadik  df - h   put a space
[09:15] <Vendeta> ?
[09:16] <tzadik> bulmer it has cdb at the end
[09:16] <Pici> Vendeta: I dont think you can.
[09:16] <bluefox83> anyone familiar with using boinc in ubuntu?
[09:17] <schrankage> anyone know of a guide for speed tweaking feisty

[09:18] <tehk> Anyone know how to get the keyboard to work on a macbook during the livecd boot prompt?
[09:18] <yigal> does anyone know if there is work on a minimal buntu?
[09:19] <nickrud> bluefox83, in your system docs, in the gnome admin guide there's some stuff about improving performance
[09:19] <Mthed> Where can i find a list of supported sound cards for linux?
[09:19] <tzadik> hi
[09:19] <tzadik> balmer i had to reboot
[09:19] <nbkr> yigal, try puppy linux.
[09:19] <bluefox83> improving performance of what?
[09:19] <yigal> nbkr: does it have apt?
[09:19] <tzadik> balmer wow the whole machine froze... never saw ubuntu do that before
[09:19] <nickrud> bluefox83, ack, wrong nick
[09:20] <tzadik> balmer... anyway... i had done df -h with a space but there was no cd there
[09:20] <nickrud> schrankage, in your system docs, in the gnome admin guide there's some stuff about improving performance
[09:20] <bluefox83> nickrud, ok, no prob :P
[09:20] <bulmer> tzadik  you have to go and ls -la /dev  and see if any is linked to cdrom or dvd
[09:20] <nbkr> yigal, have a look yourself: http://www.puppylinux.org
[09:22] <rathel> Can anyone help me with aMule? I have High ID but no sources on any of my downloads.
[09:22] <yigal> nbkr: it can and it can't, when I say minimal I mean no GNOME.  I guess I want a mostly CLI buntu
[09:22] <tzadik> bulmer... ahhh i see cdrom -> scd1 and dvd -> scd1
[09:22] <t3soro> yigal: you could just use the alternative install cd to set up a command-line system
[09:22] <trois3> hello?
[09:22] <t3soro> hi
[09:22] <trois3> im a new ubuntu user
[09:22] <yigal> when I say minimal I mean no GNOME.  I guess I want a mostly CLI buntu
[09:22] <troughton> is there a text file i can edit to tell it to look at all the repositrys ???
[09:22] <trois3> and am having trouble with wireless
[09:22] <nbkr> yigal, then try the server CD of ubuntu. It doesn't install the GUI by default.
[09:22] <bulmer> tzadik then see if there is such thing as /media/cdrom
[09:22] <trois3> can anyone help me
[09:22] <t3soro> yigal: command line install is one of the new options on the gutsy alt. cd
[09:23] <tzadik> blumer also i see scd01 and scd02
[09:23] <t3soro> trois3: type your question
[09:23] <nbkr> trois3, just ask your question - than you will see if someone can help you :-)
[09:23] <tzadik> blumer in /media there is cdrom and cdrom0 and cdrom1
[09:23] <PriceChild> t3soro, that was in feisty
[09:23] <trois3> ok, i tried to install wireless using ndiswrapper
[09:23] <bulmer> tzadik its bulmer..
[09:23] <yigal> t3soro: great, that sounds good.  I have been using Debian but the help and support I get with Ubuntu is really unparalleled
[09:23] <trois3> but im having trouble
[09:24] <t3soro> PriceChild: Its in both then, I dont remember installing feisty
[09:24] <tzadik> bulmer oops ... anyway when i cd into them there is nothing
[09:24] <dawidjj> nickrud, when i changed virtual resolution it did not work
[09:24] <trois3> and i was wondering if someone could help me setup wireless
[09:24] <tzadik> bulmer i mean cd and ls
[09:24] <bulmer> tzadik you have to find out which of those have the cdrom ..put one on the drive
[09:24] <nbkr> trois3, What do you mean with "trouble"? Any errormessages, what doesn't work exactly. You have to provide more information.
[09:24] <nickrud> dawidjj, are you sure you showed me the whole xorg log file, it seems truncated
[09:24] <trois3> Hold on.
[09:24] <rickey> i have ubuntu 5.10 how do i updat to the newest distro?
[09:24] <tzadik> bulmer, i put in the same feisty cd that i installed from
[09:24] <trois3> I'll got gather my information and come back
[09:24] <tzadik> bulmer and it can't read it
[09:25] <t3soro> does anyone know how to run a "keypress" from the command line?
[09:25] <bulmer> tzadik: i would think on your desktop, that cdrom should show up
[09:25] <troughton> i am trying to edit a live disk is there a text file i can edit to tell it to use all the reposatrys ??
[09:25] <tzadik> bulmer, no it isn't showing up
[09:25] <dawidjj> nickrud, that was whole xorg log file
[09:25] <nickrud> dawidjj, and for a test, I'd suggest going back to the nv driver from nvidia; isolate the problem a bit, maybe
[09:25] <tzadik> bulmer it is not mounting, probably
[09:25] <Dj-avu> how to install oidentd using apt-get in my ubuntu?
[09:26] <nbkr> troughton, The Live CD uses the same techniques than the installed system. Just edit /etc/apt/sources.list inside the squashfs Filesystem on the disk.
[09:26] <bulmer> tzadik then attempt to mount it..sometime cd or dvd is slow to get detected
[09:26] <nickrud> Dj-avu, sudo apt-get install oidentd
[09:26] <tzadik> bulmer what is the command?
[09:26] <troughton> thanks nbkr
[09:26] <rickey> how do i update my ubuntu5.10 to a newer verison ?
[09:26] <frank95com> hello everyone!
[09:26] <nickrud> Dj-avu, you can search for packages with apt-cache search
[09:27] <JoseBravo> Im gettig this error http://www.pastebin.ca/679197 trying to play a sound with artsplay.
[09:27] <bulmer> tzadik mount /dev/scd1 /media/cdrom   something like this..but make sure you match the correct scxx
[09:27] <frank95com> rickey, open the update-manager and you see that an upgrade is prompted
[09:27] <Dj-avu> nickrud, E: Package oidentd has no installation candidate
[09:27] <trois3> Ok, to set up my wireless, I was using this site: http://i-eat-noobs.blogspot.com/2007/08/get-wireless-working-in-ubuntu-704.html
[09:27] <Dj-avu> not work.
[09:27] <dawidjj> nickrud, really thank You for help, i have to go. I hoped it's obvious problem - it isn't. I'll take cale about this tommorow
[09:27] <trois3> And then I got to the part to get my driver files.
[09:27] <trois3> MY driver is Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 AirForce One 54g 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[09:28] <rickey> they say there is no updates
[09:28] <trois3> I wnt to ndiswrapper site, but they didn't have it.
[09:28] <tzadik> bulmer mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[09:28] <JoseBravo> Im gettig this error http://www.pastebin.ca/679197 trying to play a sound with artsplay.
[09:28] <trois3> and now I'm stuck not knowing where to get the drivers for my wireless
[09:28] <nickrud> Dj-avu, you don't have the universe repos enabled; what version are you using?
[09:29] <Mthed> When i play games the sound crackles. I'm using m-audio delta audiophile 1010LT.
[09:29] <bulmer> tzadik  i cant recall the options, you have to man mount
[09:29] <osmosis> is there a problem with the i845 driver?  Ubuntu feisty cd won't boot into a GUI even in safe mode.
[09:29] <Dj-avu> nickrud, Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS \n \l
[09:29] <tzadik> bulmer... i think i had it in the wrong drive
[09:29] <rickey> frank is that all i can do?
[09:30] <tzadik> bulmer now i did sudo mount /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom
[09:30] <tzadik> and it hangs
[09:30] <foug_> what are some good extra screen savers that i can download through synaptic?
[09:30] <SubSonik1> hello all. Just installed ubuntu and having probs with sound. Can anyone help?
[09:30] <PriceChild> !sound | SubSonik1
[09:30] <ubotu> SubSonik1: 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
[09:30] <bulmer> tzadik  maybe you have to wait a lil longer..give it a chance
[09:30] <frank95com> just a moment
[09:30] <nickrud> Dj-avu, then go to http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic and create a new sources.list. There's a link on that page about how to add it to your system.
[09:30] <m11> evening all

[09:34] <bulmer> musashi: i think it is update-rc.d    man for this
[09:34] <Suara> is there no sources for kde in ubuntu??

[09:35] <nickrud> musashi, it'd be more like update-rc.d isdn remove ; man update-rc.d has more
[09:35] <therethinker> Its a ShipIt CD, so it shouldn't have errors
[09:36] <nickrud> musashi, that'd leave the kill links, but remove the start ones
[09:36] <bionoid> ned: well, with no specified purpose I would recommend the plastic thingie that comes with your laptop :P
[09:36] <musashi> Nickrud thanks will do, give me a moment

[09:38] <Suara> where can i find sources for installing kde into my ubuntu???
[09:38] <nickrud> ned, http://www.linuxhardware.org/ and www.linux.org/hardware/ have good info
[09:39] <nickrud> musashi, no, it just removes the links from the startup directories; standard sysv stuff
[09:39] <frank95com> you dfon't need any other sources for installing kde
[09:39] <musashi> Gotcha and just read the utilitiy can be stopped and started, Thanks!

[09:44] <Siph0n> hey... which files does the Printing tool read? It is showing 3 of the same drivers so i wanna delete two of them lol.....
[09:44] <nickrud> Suara, kubuntu-desktop puts kde on your machine. No external sources needed
[09:44] <ministoat> actual scripts i'm tryin atm is ash /david/Desktop/winebuild.sh
[09:44] <Suara> nickrud, i have no result for that using apttitude search
[09:45] <MetCom> i have a question, is it totaly necesary to install updates (this is a fresh install of feisty" im asking because as soon as i do updates many things stop working, sound, wi-fi card...etc. would it be alright just to NOT update?
[09:45] <ministoat> edit: sh /david/Desktop/winebuild.sh
[09:45] <Filthpig> how can I make avant start in gnome but not xfce?
[09:45] <nickrud> Suara, you have no kubuntu-desktop ? Then your sources.list is fubar'd.
[09:45] <ministoat> with sudo command i'm prompted for password, but still comes back with error "can't find.."
[09:45] <Lamego> MetCom, well, if you don't update, you will not get the fixes from the updates
[09:46] <Lamego> which include security and critical fixes
[09:46] <wolfsong> anyone know why I'd get server out of memory errors when trying to mount a share on a winbox? I'm not getting it not getting it on another winbox I have up
[09:46] <nbkr> ministoat, "can't find" - what? Can you paste the complete error message?
[09:46] <MetCom> Lamego: the fixes seem to make some of my hardware not work... lol. what do you suggest i do?
[09:46] <ministoat> yeh 1 sec
[09:46] <nickrud> Suara, go to http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic , and create just the ubuntu ones. There's a link there that tells you how to add the file your your system
[09:46] <Lamego> MetaBot, if you mean some of hardware, you are prorbably refering to kernel upgrades
[09:46] <ministoat> david@desktop:~$ sh /david/Desktop/winebuild.sh
[09:46] <ministoat> sh: Can't open /david/Desktop/winebuild.sh
[09:47] <ministoat> had the same problem tryin to run an nivida script too
[09:47] <nbkr> ministoat, Are you sure that the path ist /david/.. and not /home/david/... ?
[09:47] <benzs_s> try ~/david/Desktop/winebuild.sh
[09:47] <MetCom> Lamego: that makes sense because at one point during boot i pressed escape to enter the boot options, and i selected an earlier kernel. everything worked fine
[09:47] <nickrud> ministoat, is the file executable?  chmod u+x <file>
[09:48] <Lamego> MetaBot, you can blacklist kernel updates, but I don't remember how to do it
[09:48] <Kano> hi, is there a special trick that the firmware is used from /lib/firmware/$(uname -r)
[09:48] <ministoat> its an x-shellscript it says
[09:48] <Kano> instead of /lib/firmware directly
[09:48] <MetCom> Lamego: thanks i will look into that, i appreciate your help =D
[09:48] <abedo> geeks I re-installed Windows XP , have xubuntu installed , & I lost the grub
[09:49] <Jowi> MetCom, apt-get upgrade will update everything but the kernel most of the time while apt-get dist-upgrade will add new kernel as well.
[09:49] <nickrud> Kano, that's where bcm43xx-fwcutter put the firmware for my wireless card that it pulled out of the windows driver
[09:49] <digital_> sudo update-grub abedo
[09:49] <Lamego> Jowi, that is not true, apt-get upgrade dos upgrade the kernel also
[09:49] <Lamego> does
[09:49] <digital_> *should* do it
[09:49] <Kano> nickrud: in linux-ubuntu-modules is firmware
[09:49] <Kano> but it seems not used
[09:49] <nbkr> ministoat, again: Are you sure that /david/Desktop/winebuild.sh is the correct path. Normaly the users Home is not directly on / - try sh /home/david/Desktop/winebuild.sh
[09:49] <nickrud> Kano, the stuff that ubuntu provides, yes
[09:49] <Jowi> Lamego, not for me it doesn't (edgy)
[09:49] <arooni> how do i get eclipse 3.3 on my machine?  sudo apt-get install gives me 3.2.2
[09:49] <abedo> digital_: I lost the boot , I cant boot the linux :(
[09:49] <Lamego> Jowi, for me it does, feisty
[09:50] <MetCom> Lamego: and Jowi , if i just pick through updates and deselect kernel updates, wont i be fine?
[09:50] <ministoat> nbkr - same error :david@desktop:~$ sudo sh /home/david/Desktop/winebuild.sh
[09:50] <ministoat> sh: Can't open /home/david/Desktop/winebuild.sh
[09:50] <ministoat> david@desktop:~$
[09:50] <digital_> oh, sorry abedo :)
[09:50] <Jack_Sparrow> I installed tremulous with synaptic but when I run it.. THe monitor goes out of bounds and I get stuck without a screen...  Any way to config it?
[09:50] <warbler> abedo: from the live cd - you have a live cd?
[09:50] <Lamego> MetaBot, yes it will, assuming your problem is with the kernel, kernel-headers
[09:50] <abedo> digital_: nm
[09:50] <digital_> maybe there's an option on the cd
[09:50] <Jowi> MetCom, even if you get an updated kernel the old one will not be removed so you're safe.
[09:50] <digital_> otherwise you could use a live cd
[09:51] <nbkr> ministoat, run: "ls -lha ~/Desktop/winebuild.sh"
[09:51] <digital_> but i'm not familiar with ubuntu.. sorry
[09:51] <MetCom> yeah i spose you're right Jowi , but it sure is annoying having to press esc everytime i boot, can i configure grub to make the earlier kernel the default?
[09:51] <warbler> abedo: with a live cd you can reinstall grub
[09:51] <abedo> warbler: yup , I tried grub , then root (h0,0) ..
[09:51] <digital_> google for grub ubuntu live cd or smth :)
[09:51] <atarinox> do i have to remount my network folder to refresh the files and folders on my local network?
[09:51] <Jowi> MetCom, in /boot/grub/menu.lst you can put "default saved" indead of "default 0" then the last kernel you booted will be the default one.
[09:52] <ministoat> omg slap me
[09:52] <nickrud> Kano, sorry, I missed part of what your question was *blush*
[09:52] <usser> hey guys
[09:52] <jesson> when i try to apt-get dante or openssh i get an error saying no internal address an someone explain this to me please.....
[09:52] <sauvin> I wish to add $HOME/bin to the PATH for all users. ubuntu's bash resources in /etc confuse me. Where to put the appropriate export?
[09:52] <ministoat> /home/david/winebuild65.sh XD
[09:52] <ministoat> *64
[09:52] <MetCom> ok thanks alot Jowi!
[09:52] <ministoat> sorry, thnx guys!
[09:52] <warbler> abedo: from live cd - sudo grub-find /boot/grub/stage1-root (hd?)-setup (hd0)quit - then reboot
[09:53] <usser> does anyone had a problem with ati driver installed by envy
[09:53] <defrysk> envy is not supported
[09:53] <abedo> but it gave me filesystem not found , thenfind /boot/grub/stagstage1
[09:53] <warbler> * -quit
[09:53] <nickrud> sauvin, if you look at ~/.bashrc, you'll see a stanza that already does that for you
[09:53] <endz> how do you run a .run file?
[09:53] <usser> defrysk: come again supported by whom?
[09:53] <abedo> but it gave me filesystem not found , thenfind /boot/grub/stage1
[09:53] <MetCom> dont use envy, well. i dont suggest you use envy
[09:53] <defrysk> supported in this forum
[09:53] <MetCom> it messed up my system pretty good (envy did)
[09:53] <endz> i downloaded my ati drivers and its in the form of a .run file
[09:53] <usser> MetCom: heh oh well i used it already
[09:53] <Jowi> MetCom, before the "boot" line in all kernel options in menu.lst there should be a line that say "savedefault", make sure that exist. And I think there might be problem with certain raid/lvm volumes using the saved state as well. but i use it on my normal ide drives and never had a  problem.
[09:53] <defrysk> usser, there is a thread in ubuntuforums.org. go there
[09:54] <ministoat> yeh envy stopped wow from running for me :/
[09:54] <MetCom> usser: did it cause any problems for you ?
[09:54] <usser> no everythings fine except that it screwed up my resolution
[09:54] <usser> even though i told it not to change my xorg
[09:54] <MetCom> jowi, alright
[09:54] <usser> xorg.conf that it
[09:54] <stiv2k> hi.  I used ndiswrapper and installed the driver bcmwl5.inf but it says hardware present: No on my friends laptop why?
[09:54] <Jowi> MetCom, but there should be an explanation in the beginning of menu.lst about that. just read what it say there.
[09:54] <MetCom> ok
[09:55] <usser> defrysk: tnx i will
[09:55] <arooni> can someone help me to understand why elcipse is always crashing?  paste of the errors: http://pastie.caboo.se/93288

[09:55] <seriphos> Hello.
[09:55] <seriphos> Can anyone help me setup my wireless for Ubuntu Feisty Fawn?
[09:55] <seriphos> I'm a new Linux user that had to get away from Windows.
[09:55] <MetCom> seriphos: , what kind of wi-fi card do you have?
[09:56] <seriphos> I have a Belkin Wireless G Desktop card F5D7000 version 4000.
[09:56] <defrysk> skinnypuppy1334, /j Ubuntu-effects
[09:56] <defrysk> skinnypuppy1334, /j #Ubuntu-effects
[09:56] <defrysk> even
[09:56] <sauvin> nickrud, there is no stanza in ~/.bashrc that adds $HOME/bin to PATH.
[09:56] <benzs_s> that probably uses the RT73 driver, which is the same as mine, seriphos
[09:56] <benzs_s> hang on, there's a good how-to on the forums
[09:56] <stiv2k> hi.  I used ndiswrapper and installed the driver bcmwl5.inf but it says hardware present: No on my friends laptop why?  (using broadcom DELL 1390 chipset)
[09:56] <nickrud> sauvin, hm, it's in mine. I thought it came with it, I haven't made many changes. A sec
[09:57] <sauvin> I've not made any changes to mine, yet, and prefer to do it system-wide.
[09:57] <fredddy> hi can someone tell me how to get Alt-Tab working in games like sauerbraten
[09:57] <nickrud> sauvin, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36076/
[09:57] <usser> ok hm another question is there an easy way to force xorg to certain resolution/refresh rate
[09:57] <seriphos> Wait, when I do a lspci for the terminal, Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 AirForce One 54g 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) shows up.
[09:57] <nickrud> sauvin, arg, wrong page.
[09:58] <firetruuh> http://tinyurl.com/2ldyds could anyone help me with this please? thanks in advance
[09:58] <sauvin> LOL
[09:58] <sauvin> It's a gorgeous idea, nickrud, but not what I'm after :)
[09:58] <benzs_s> seriphos: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405990 <- that's for a Broadcom driver
[09:58] <nickrud> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36077/ <-- sauvin ;)
[09:58] <degrit> 'allo
[09:58] <abedo> warbler: Error 22 , no such partition ..
[09:58] <MetCom> seriphos: well the card seems to be common, i personaly cannot take you through step by step. BUT if you google key words like "belkin f5d700 ubuntu" im sure you can find a walkthrough
[09:59] <seriphos> Ok, I'll try it out.
[09:59] <Jowi> usser, yeah. in the Section Monitor in /etc/X11/xorg.conf add (without quotes) "VertRefresh 60" (or what refresh rate you want). if the monitor+driver support it you're good to go. another way is to add a modeline
[09:59] <seriphos> thanks guys.

[10:11] <Jowi> Pete_, did you change kernel version inbetween when it worked and when it didn't? I got usb probs with one kernel update (all usb ports disconnected and reconnected every second)
[10:11] <Andre_Toda> hello there
[10:12] <Enul> sauvin thanks http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36080/
[10:12] <Pete_> Jowi: odd, I changed distros too ;) Its a cable that doesn't get much use, used for diagnosing car troubles, but it was working a month or two ago
[10:12] <GIn> can some one helps me with a dependencie problem??
[10:12] <nickrud> GIn, do you have the file /var/cache/debconf/config.dat ?
[10:13] <warbler> abedo: ?
[10:13] <Jowi> Pete_, other usb devices misbehaving as well?
[10:13] <sauvin> What the hell is this crap about "compiler cannot create executables"!?
[10:13] <sauvin> Enul, do a gcc -dumpversion
[10:13] <nickrud> sauvin, he needs build-essential
[10:13] <Jowi> sauvin, install build-essential
[10:13] <Enul> ok
[10:13] <Pete_> Jowi: No, unlike what you said everything else USB works fine
[10:14] <GIn> nickrud, nope, file not there
[10:14] <Enul> sauvin gcc: no input files
[10:14] <sauvin> Enul, precisely as I typed it: gcc -dumpversion
[10:14] <nickrud> GIn, is there anything in that directory at all?
[10:14] <Suara> nickrud, so the package i need is kubuntu-desktop?
[10:14] <abedo> warbler:  the setup doesn't work , it gave me no such partition
[10:14] <Jowi> Pete_, try another port, if that doesn't help try the cable on a different computer. if *that* doesn't work you know where the problem is :)
[10:14] <abedo> warbler: this is my prob
[10:14] <GIn> nickrud, /var/cache/debconf not exist at all
[10:14] <Enul> sauvin 4.1.2
[10:15] <warbler> abedo: what were you entering for the partition?
[10:15] <sauvin> Your compiler can create executables. There's something else going on.
[10:15] <Enul> any idea what it might be?
[10:15] <Pete_> Jowi: I've tried different ports, but not any other systems. Not neccessarly, that might show a bug in the current ftdi driver
[10:15] <sauvin> No. Paste the .log file (something like config.log or configure.log) from the directory the configure file is int.
[10:15] <abedo> warbler: root (hd0,5) - setup (hd0,5)

[10:16] <nickrud> GIn, not sure, never seen that, looking

[10:17] <Enul> sauvin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36082/
[10:17] <warbler> abedo: it is - setup (hd0) - to get grub on the start of the first disk

[10:18] <sauvin> Enul, confirm you're using a 64 bit ubuntu?
[10:18] <Enul> i am
[10:18] <warbler> abedo: root (hd0.5)  - setup (hd0)
[10:18] <Kyoukipichi> Does anyone here use Azureus/BitTorrent? If so, should I setup a static IP for Azureus, or will it work fine without port forwarding on Ubuntu?
[10:18] <Pete_> Jowi: Same problem on another machine. I just noticed this from dmesg, "usbfs: interface 0 claimed by ftdi_sio while 'brltty' sets config #1"
[10:18] <abedo> warbler: I tried it dude & it's same
[10:18] <Enul> yep sauvin i'm useing 64 bit ubuntu

I cannot reassemble the raid device md0 as the superblock indicates that the raid consists of /dev/sda and /dev/sdb, which is not the case (it is /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc here). How can I fix this?
[10:20] <nickrud> GIn, :)

[10:28] <kbrooks> if i have a router, how do I block DCC requests?
[10:29] <Suara> nickrud,  http://paste.debian.net/36071
[10:29] <sauvin> kbrooks, you night not be able to because dcc requests can use almost any port.
[10:29] <Maddas_> Hi. Is there any way to install Ubuntu on a laptop without burning a CDR/DVDR? (I don't have any of those available right now)
[10:29] <Jowi> kbrooks, in my netgrear router the settings is in "block services"

[10:30] <gustavold> hi all, how can I set the location where the core dump will be generated ?
[10:30] <sauvin> Jowi, IRC DCC can use any port. I mean that literally.
[10:30] <IAmI> I query: what is the easiest way to enable connections to WPA secured networks
[10:30] <corpcomp> I am wanting to use a remote client such as WinSCP to edit files on my new 6.06 install but I have noted that I have to login with user credentials and not root therefore I cannot edit files.  How can I achieve this if at all.
[10:30] <Maddas_> krammer: Why does this matter? Yes, I can buy CDR/DVDRs in a few days, but I'd like to know if I can do it without.
[10:30] <Timo> Hi, want anyone help me please with Gaim and automatically identify on login? FAQ is talking about to pounce a message, but Gaim is running with German translations and I cannot find the menu with is similar to pounce a message.

[10:30] <chris_> i am wondering if anyone knows how to get sound blaster live working in fiesty fawn
[10:30] <krammer> go to a bookstore and buy a magazine or book that comes with the cd it is the easiest
[10:31] <IAmI> I query: what is the easiest way to enable connections to WPA secured networks
[10:31] <sauvin> MWS43, what kind of coding do you need?
[10:31] <nickrud> Suara, some of those extra repos conflict with one another; that's why I mentioned getting only the ubuntu ones. I'd edit that file, and put a  # in front of all the repos after seveas, keeping seveas's
[10:31] <ScorpKing> is there someone here that use a vodafone e220 usb modem is South Africa successfully under ubuntu?
[10:31] <Jowi> sauvin, but the irc client/server must surely listen to the request within a given port range, no?
[10:31] <west> ls it hard to bind my IP to my domain and my domain to my IP?
[10:31] <MetCom> hey Jowi, you still around?
[10:31] <MWS43> sauvin:  only a little voting poll script
[10:31] <sauvin> Jowi, you know, I don't know. Maybe it'd be better just to get the client itself to ignore requests?
[10:32] <sauvin> MWS43, a "voting poll script"? In what medium?
[10:32] <Algaeman> MWS43:  Maybe ask in #php?
[10:32] <Jowi> sauvin, I would say so.
[10:32] <dhq> which is the fastest server for repos with all updates
[10:32] <ScorpKing> west: /etc/hosts
[10:32] <NaNO2x> has anyone had experience trying to get a zune working under ubuntu?
[10:32] <MWS43> Algaeman:  I ask in there, but they go mental and say i need to learn php and that the chat channel does not welcome paying jobs

[10:33] <MWS43> sauvin:  yeah, like a voting poll, where people vote on some given options and it outputs the results into a seperate page
[10:33] <MetCom> Jowi: next to the kernel "2.6.20-16" and "2.6.20-15" they each have "savedefault" next to them. so should i put "default 0" next to the kernel i DONT want?
[10:33] <Jowi> MetCom, what's up?

[10:36] <MWS43> dhq:  voting script that gives user options and outputs results in seperate page. in any language
[10:36] <latinoguy> is almost the same evri2
[10:36] <sauvin> Hrm... that (2) means you downloaded it from somewhere, and not with a formal package manager. You said this was an openoffice language pack?
[10:36] <nickrud> bluebanana, it's in libgpod1
[10:36] <Algaeman> so, if I pop a Dapper CD in my breezy box, will it give me an option to upgrade?
[10:36] <Yarcanox> I luv ubuntu
[10:36] <dhq> MWS43, you might find so many scropts online
[10:36] <latinoguy> yeap sauvin
[10:36] <sauvin> In any event, BE IT ON YOUR OWN HEAD if your Office breaks: sudo unzip es_ES(2).zip
[10:37] <latinoguy> is a language pack
[10:37] <MWS43> dhq:  mines slightly different and i cannot code
[10:37] <sauvin> you PROBABLY want to download language packs using synaptics.
[10:37] <nickrud> Algaeman, it should
[10:37] <latinoguy> as simple as that??
[10:37] <sauvin> Welcome to linux, latinoguy. Feel the POWER.
[10:37] <latinoguy> using synaptics

[10:37] <latinoguy> im feeling it
[10:37] <dhq> MWS43, i am not sure but may be able to help you
[10:37] <latinoguy> thanks sauvin

[10:38] <corpcomp>  I am wanting to use a remote client such as WinSCP to edit files on mynew 6.06 install but I have noted that I have to login with user credentials and not root therefore I cannot edit files.  How can I achieve this if at all.
[10:38] <nickrud> Algaeman, but if you installed anything from the net, you'll need the net to get a complete upgrade
[10:38] <barbarella> evri2:depends on what you want to do on the drive, for video recording, i would use xfs...just an example
[10:38] <Algaeman> corpcomp: sudo
[10:38] <MWS43> dhq:  cool, I can exchange graphics/sound work because i have been doing them for a while.
[10:38] <chris_> anyone i dont get sound with my sound blaster live
[10:39] <dhq> MWS43, could you pm me
[10:39] <corpcomp> Algaeman; you cant sudo with WinSCP
[10:39] <evri2> barbarella: Well i use it for programming,a bit gaming,listening music,surfind internet.Not video recording
[10:39] <wolferine> chris_, which application are you trying to get sound working in ?
[10:39] <Algaeman> nikrud:  that's fine.  But the packages for breezy are no longer on the net, so dist-upgrade fails.
[10:39] <bluebanana> nickrud, sudo aptitude install libgpod1 gives 0 files to install!
[10:39] <nickrud> corpcomp, you can use putty, log in and sudo from there
[10:39] <raynerd> anyone know if there is a better SLAX forum the #slax which currently has like like 5 users
[10:40] <Jordan_U> Lion, Did you choose manual partitioining?
[10:40] <nickrud> bluebanana, what version of ubuntu are you using?
[10:40] <Algaeman> oh.. scp.  You probably have root access turned off in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[10:40] <barbarella> evri2:ext3 would be fine
[10:40] <OuZo> wha
[10:40] <NeoNemesis> can anyone help me with sound card issue
[10:40] <Enul> sauvin any ideas on how i can fix this?
[10:40] <dhq> MWS43, well tell me in voting script what do you need
[10:40] <OuZo> whats a good program to conver avi to dvd format? thanks
[10:40] <Algaeman> but if you want to stay secure, scp as yourself, then ssh in and move them to the right place as root.
[10:40] <nikron> huh
[10:41] <GnarlyBob> damn lame kiddies
[10:41] <MWS43> dhq:  hold on im trying to register my nick to pm

[10:43] <aricz_> K-lined.. \o.
[10:43] <Enul> hmm... should i try a different distribution?
[10:43] <sauvin> I'd have to try to build the gdesklets package myself to see, and I'm not that ambitious today.
[10:43] <kbrooks> um
[10:43] <kbrooks> question
[10:43] <ompaul> Enul, based on what?
[10:43] <Ranpha1> I ahve two network card attached to eah other but for some reason they won't link up anymore , it worked yesterday fine , how can i check it?
[10:44] <Enul> well i cant get configure to work and i need it to work
[10:44] <barbarella> west:right they are looking east
[10:44] <Jordan_U> Enul, What are you trying to compile and are you sure you need to ?
[10:44] <sauvin> ompaul, enul is trying to build gdesklets and configure is barfing on the lack of a ctr1.o file, I think.
[10:44] <west> barbarella: :))
[10:44] <ministoat> hey i need some help reinstalling nvidia drivers - its says i have to close X - doe shtt mean i need to do it whilst booting?
[10:45] <Jordan_U> Enul, Have you done an apt-get build-dep gdesklets?
[10:45] <Jasnation> the video card in my system is very old, and will most likely never run beryl or compiz; are there any other programs that can add animations or window effects?
[10:45] <Jordan_U> Jasnation, There is 3ddesktop
[10:45] <bluebanana> nickrud, i re-installed and it's all working now!
[10:45] <Enul> no but i've used a synaptc packet manager to install gdesklets
[10:46] <Enul> but it doesnt work but the work around is to compile gdesklets from the source
[10:46] <west> ScorpKing: and that should make /dns my.ip return my domain ?
[10:46] <Jordan_U> Enul, That does not get everything needed to compile it from source, work around for what?
[10:46] <kbrooks> um, how do i use tor with xchat?
[10:46] <warbler> enul: is it lmsensors?
[10:46] <Enul> gdesklets
[10:47] <Silveira_Neto> Does anybody knows how to install MPICH2 in Ubuntu?
[10:47] <Jasnation> jordan_u: how do I use 3ddesktop?
[10:47] <ScorpKing> west: not sure. try it
[10:47] <warbler> enul: there are two gdesklets packages
[10:47] <ScorpKing> west: run ping yourdomain
[10:47] <warbler> enul: you need all repos to get the desklets
[10:47] <gautada> greetings, does anyone know why the website "http://www.samhsa.gov" does not work using ubuntu?  It works on a gentoo and windows box on the same network but does not work on two separate feisty boxes...
[10:47] <Enul> yes but they wont work under ubuntu x64 so i spent about an hour trying to find some answers on the web and the only thing i can find is the workaround
[10:47] <Jordan_U> Jasnation, Just install it and run "3ddesktop" it does a Compiz like cube rotation ( it actually came long before Compiz IIRC )
[10:48] <warbler> enul: ahhh... x64 - didn't know - had to ask
[10:48] <Enul> to be honest i can live without gdesklets but i really need configure to work since i have a driver i need to build
[10:48] <Jordan_U> Enul, Remove the gdesklets package you have and run "sudo apt-get build-dep gdesklets" then try compiling again
[10:48] <warbler> enul: have you tried adesklets?
[10:49] <Enul> no never heard of adesklets
[10:49] <sauvin> Hot damn, using mplayer for an mp3 player rules - INSTANT access to controls via keyboard. No mouse clicking!
[10:49] <zitner> Heylo
[10:49] <Enul> ok joran i'll try that
[10:49] <Jordan_U> Enul, What driver do you need to build?
[10:49] <mattg> 911!  what do i use to convert WMA to OGG?
[10:49] <warbler> enul: I'll come back with the link

[10:50] <zitner> I try to run an avi file, and Mplayer just gives me an Error opening/initializing supported video_out (-vo) device.  Can anyone help me???
[10:50] <sauvin> west, only root can save stuff to /etc
[10:50] <barbarella> west:sudo
[10:50] <warbler> enul: try here - http://adesklets.sourceforge.net/desklets.html
[10:50] <west> right, thanks
[10:50] <Jasnation> jordan_u; it can't find the '3ddesktop' command
[10:50] <dhq> MWS43, ???
[10:50] <Jordan_U> zitner, You need to change the output device, most likely to xv, but you might find Totem easier and with the right codecs plays just about everything
[10:50] <ompaul> !compile >  Enul (please check message from bot)
[10:51] <rodserling> If I buy an Nvidia card, will high resolutions be available without editing xorg?
[10:51] <Enul> ok thanks guys i appreciate the help

[10:51] <Jordan_U> Jasnation, Sorry, it's just 3ddesk

[10:51] <dhq> MWS43, admin@dylanhq.com
[10:51] <warbler> !lamp
[10:51] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[10:51] <zitner> I have all teh codecs, how do I change the output device?? Jordan_U
[10:51] <wolferine> rodserling, you can probably setup your card without 'actually' editing xorg.conf
[10:51] <kahrytan> warbler, dont spam
[10:51] <Jordan_U> zitner, the -vo switch
[10:51] <ompaul> rodserling, if you buy a suitable card you will need to run >> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg << and that will edit that file
[10:52] <zitner> Jordan_U, where's the _vo switch, a little new here, sorry.
[10:52] <barbarella> kahrytan:he didn't
[10:52] <warbler> trying to show you how to get ubotu msg
[10:52] <sauvin> zitner, are you using mplayer from the command line?
[10:52] <NaNO2x> has anyone actually used a zune under linux?  i don't have one however thats something required for a switch for someone
[10:52] <juanchu> hey
[10:52] <Jordan_U> zitner, Do you know the basics of the terminal ?
[10:52] <verme> hello
[10:52] <rodserling> Alright, because now it only detects up to 1024 x 768

[10:53] <barbarella> SlimG:is there by default?!
[10:54] <sauvin> zitner, if you're not comfortable with the command line, you might want to use something else.
[10:54] <Jordan_U> zitner, Ahh, mplayer is usually used from the terminal ( gmplayer is actually an add on GUI ), I think you right click the movie window and their are preferences where you can set the video out
[10:54] <ministoat> anyone know how to reinstall nvidia driver?
[10:54] <kitche> NaNO2x: http://www.zune-online.com/mac-and-linux.html is the only howtos
[10:54] <juanchu> im a newbie user of ubuntu, and i have installed firefox, but it is in english, anyone can say me how can i put firefox in spanish? thks
[10:54] <NaNO2x> right but has anyone tried it :P
[10:54] <davetarmac> does anyone know if there are any programs like DVD Profiler that work under Ubuntu? I used one (can't remember it's name) but it didn't look at any UK sites for the information/covers
[10:54] <zitner> Jordan_U, ok let me check, one second.
[10:54] <barbarella> zitner:you can always use VLC
[10:54] <kitche> NaNO2xprobably not sicne it's full of DRM and sorta needs Windows to even be used
[10:54] <Jordan_U> zitner, But again, I personally find totem ( the built in app "Movie Player" in the menus to be an easier interface and can play most anything )
[10:55] <verme> i have a question... 3D acceleration runs fine, but desktop effects don't run (it says: "composite extension is not aavailable"), anybody knows how to solve it?
[10:55] <sauvin> juanchu, there is an #ubuntu-es channel; they may have a better idea.
[10:55] <NaNO2x> hrm, i wish i could get him to throw out the player :P
[10:55] <Jordan_U> verme, ATI?
[10:55] <kahrytan> Whose having codec problems?
[10:55] <verme> yes Jordan_U
[10:55] <usser> ok that was a weird experience
[10:55] <SlimG> barbarella: I've just found ot in another channel: gnome-btdownload
[10:55] <Jasnation> jordan_u; 3ddeskd: glXIsDirect failed, no Direct Rendering possible!
[10:55] <henper> ah, never mind, they're in the linux-restricted-modules, the changelog tells the versions
[10:55] <usser> i can honestly say that ati sucks
[10:55] <Jasnation> it does
[10:55] <Jordan_U> Jasnation, Do you have direct rendering?
[10:55] <kahrytan> usser, Tell me something we dont know
[10:55] <usser> just rolled back to an old driver and it works like a charm
[10:55] <juanchu> sauvin thks
[10:55] <usser> bleh
[10:55] <ChakRa> is it possible to access sftp through a web browser? if not how can i setup a ftp on ubuntu to be able to be accessed through web browser? help would be much appreciated
[10:56] <sauvin> ATI sucks, but it _can_ be beaten into submission.
[10:56] <Jasnation> jordan_u; I don't know what that is; it says I can configure it?
[10:56] <Jordan_U> verme, fglrx does not support composite natively, you need XGL to hack it into working with Compiz
[10:56] <endz> can anyone help me install the ati drivers for linux
[10:56] <endz> ATI Technologies Linux Driver Installer/Packager
[10:56] <endz> [10:56] <endz> Detected configuration:
[10:56] <endz> Architecture: x86_64 (64-bit)
[10:56] <endz> X Server: X.Org 7.1 and later releases 64-bit
[10:56] <endz> Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install.Kx6564
[10:56] <kahrytan> usser, When I go and build my system, I specifically bought nvidia card
[10:56] <endz> root@endz:/home/endz/Desktop#
[10:56] <Jordan_U> Jasnation, can you pastebin the output of "glxinfo" ?
[10:56] <barbarella> SlimG:applications are always an user default...not a distro
[10:56] <PriceChild> !paste | endz
[10:56] <ubotu> endz: 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)
[10:56] <verme> ok Jordan_U
[10:56] <endz> does taht shit mean its installed?
[10:56] <Suara> nickrud, where is there that??
[10:57] <sauvin> endz, DON'T DO THAT!
[10:57] <Jasnation> jordan_u; ok, hold on
[10:57] <west> ls it hard to bind my IP to my domain and my domain to my IP?
[10:57] <usser> kahrytan: i started with linux before i knew that
[10:57] <Enul> this is kinda off topic but when new versions of ubuntu are available do you have to download the os again or can you just update the kernal to the new version?
[10:57] <neur1> hello room
[10:57] <abedo> warbler:  none
[10:57] <usser> kahrytan: and spent 400 bucks on my ati card aint gonna throw that away =)
[10:57] <zitner> Jordan_U, I've tried all my multimedia players, they all just open up, then shut down.  Mplayer is the only one that tells me an error.
[10:57] <n00dl3> mmm hes running root x3
[10:57] <Jordan_U> Enul, You update every package
[10:57] <kitche> Enul: you update the whole thing with update-manager
[10:57] <ScorpKing> west: didn't /etc/hosts work?
[10:57] <kahrytan> usser, I tried Linux off and on for years. Always going back to Windows until Vista's release
[10:57] <sauvin> Enul, more often than not, a new version of a distro changes things beyond the kernel.
[10:58] <barbarella> west:...what do you mean...you don't know you domain's ip
[10:58] <SlimG> barbarella: Sorry, I should've replaced "default" with "out-of-box, bad english on my hand :P
[10:58] <Enul> ah ok thanks
[10:58] <warbler> abedo: the pastebin?
[10:58] <Prowler_1> hi how to recreate xorg.conf (i moved it since it dont work)
[10:58] <west> ScorpKing,: 85.120.6.91 -> NO REVERSE DNS IS DEFINED
[10:58] <Jordan_U> zitner, What error do you get when running "totem" from a terminal ( use pastebin if it is more than a few lines ) ?
[10:58] <Prowler_1> !xorg.conf
[10:58] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:58] <ompaul> Prowler_1, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg should default it for you
[10:58] <bmcfee> anyone have experience installing (7.04) on a dmraid config?  the installer keeps dying in various steps and trashing my partition table
[10:58] <PriceChild> **AHEM** I am about to set 12 banforwards to help people fix a vulnerability with their routers.
[10:58] <arno-t_> hi. I ran make xconfig, set up a few things and saved config. Then ran the debian/rules script and compiled a kernel. It boots. Now, when I run make xconfig in the root dir, all the options are set to default... (?) How do I check if my compiled (running) kernel has default options, or the options I specified?
[10:58] <verme> Jordan_U: thanks a lot :)
[10:58] <zitner> Jordan_U, I've never run an application from terminal, I always use the gui versions.
[10:58] <wolferine> bmcfee, did you run the disk check?
[10:58] <Prowler_1> ompaul: thanks!
[10:59] <ScorpKing> west: mmm.. can't help then
[10:59] <west> i want reverse dns for my IP address
[10:59] <Jordan_U> verme, np, you might want to check if your card is supported by the open source drivers
[10:59] <ompaul> !nickspam | z0nk
[10:59] <ubotu> z0nk: 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
[10:59] <abedo> warbler: I tried to deal with phlak , & the same result but I cant copy the output :$
[10:59] <J-_> why ban them because of their router?
[10:59] <verme> Jordan_U: i have instaled the propietary driver
[10:59] <Yarcanox> pricechild I am just curious: how can this help people with their routers?
[10:59] <Jordan_U> verme, They work great with Compiz ( though they only support older cards fully :(
[10:59] <Silveira_Neto> Hi people, I'm really need to install some packages from MPICH2 in my system, but they aren't provided by default yet. So I read here (http://www.ubuntu-es.org/index.php?q=node/22884) that I need to add "deb http://torvalds.cs.mtsu.edu/~zach/debian/current/ /" to my /etc/apt/source.list and so do an apt-get update. It's that all and so I can do an apt-get install ?
[10:59] <J-_> whoops
[10:59] <J-_> thought it was offtopic
[10:59] <ompaul> J-_, pm
[10:59] <Jasnation> jordan_u; the output is http://pastebin.com/m625a47b4
[10:59] <bmcfee> wolferine: disk check?  so far the specific problems i'm having are 1) it dies if i try to create a swap partition on the raid (ok, i can deal without a swap partition), and 2) it can't install grub
[11:00] <kitche> west: the ISP must set up the reverse DNS or you need to install bind and set it yourself but most of the time ISP has to
[11:00] <verme> hmmm
[11:00] <west> kitche: ok thanks
[11:00] <wolferine> bmcfee, yes, to confirm the media is correct
 pricechild I am just curious: how can this help people with their routers?
[11:00] <warbler> abedo: hard to tell the prob - if it finds grub it "should" load it ??
[11:00] <bmcfee> wolferine: oh, you mean the install disk?
[11:00] <barbarella> Silveira_Neto:you said it all...why didn't you?1
[11:00] <neur1> bye room
[11:00] <PriceChild> Yarcanox, they will be forwarded into #ubuntu-read-topic, where funnily enough, the topic will instruct them on how to fix things.
[11:00] <wolferine> bmcfee, yes
[11:00] <ScorpKing> kitche: will dnsmasq work? it is not as complicated as bind.
[11:01] <Yarcanox> oh ok :D
[11:01] <abedo> warbler: anyway Thx for ur time
[11:01] <Yarcanox> so it's because of some trojans or sumthing?
[11:01] <PriceChild> !dcc > Yarcanox (see the pm from ubotu)
[11:01] <warbler> k
[11:01] <ompaul> no
[11:01] <psylon> kitche: Your isp would have to delegate authority to your  bind server to run your own reverse dns. They typically won't do this for less than a class c network.
[11:01] <bmcfee> wolferine: no, i haven't done that yet.  i was just wondering if there's some magical hoop i have to jump through to make grub install
[11:01] <bmcfee> i'm working off a howto for 6.06, but i suspect a few things have changed
[11:01] <kitche> psylon: correct tell west that since that's what I said
[11:02] <wolferine> bmcfee, i was just making a suggestion, I really dubt I can help with your exact issue, good luck
[11:02] <wolferine> doubt*
[11:02] <bmcfee> ok.  anyone else?
[11:02] <psylon> west: Give dnsmasq a try for running your own dns. It is a great little server that uses the entries in your /etc/hosts file. Makes it very simple to run.
[11:03] <Silveira_Neto> barbarella, I did, but I get that package mpich2-mpd can't be installed cause I can't install python2.3 and python2.3-xml, but I already have the python newest version
[11:03] <thepumpkin> How can I teach aptitude to Ignore Removal errors? I mean, one package tries to delete a folder already deleted by me and the "remove" action fails.
[11:04] <ootm> hi, if my filesystem has mounted readonly because of a disk error - how can i mount it read-write so i can fix a corrupt file?
[11:04] <kahrytan> usser, Why did you switch?
[11:04] <psylon> thepumpkin: Every package has scripts that get dropped into the /var/lib/dpkg/info directory. Looks for the ones related to removal for your package and modify it so that it won't produce an error when you try to remove that package.
[11:04] <bmcfee> does the 7.04 install disk have a non-gui version of the installer?  this thing kinda cramps my style
[11:04] <psylon> ootm: mount / -o rw
[11:05] <thepumpkin> psylon, I will check that out. thanks.
[11:05] <ompaul> bmcfee, you can use the alternative and the server - get them from the same location www.ubuntu.com and click on download
[11:05] <Jasnation> text mode?
[11:05] <ootm> psylon, thanks
[11:05] <psylon> ootm: np
[11:05] <Jasnation> how do I enable direct rendering
[11:05] <bmcfee> ompaul: right, i was just wondering if it was present on the disk i already have.  no cd burner here except for the machine i'm trying to install on
[11:05] <xcd> PriceChild: did you kick me because of some vulnerability?
[11:05] <psylon> Jasnation: Which video chipset are you using?
[11:06] <xcd> /topic #
[11:06] <Jasnation> psylon: a voodoo I think
[11:06] <ompaul> bmcfee, so not of much use to you
[11:06] <kitche> xcd: he banned forwarded you to #ubuntu-read-topic which explains it and yes he did
[11:06] <bmcfee> right
[11:06] <PriceChild> xcd, please follow the instructions there if i banforwarded you.
[11:07] <Jasnation> psylon: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: 3Dfx Interactive, Inc. Voodoo 3 (rev 01)
[11:07] <Jordan_U> !alternate | bmcfee
[11:07] <ubotu> bmcfee: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[11:07] <psylon> Jasnation: Hmmm, you might have to do a little digging on that one. Do you want to play with 3d games or just a 3d desktop? That is a pretty old card for games.
[11:08] <ehird`> are intel macs well supported by [kx] ?ubuntu yet?
[11:08] <Jasnation> psylon: I am just looking for window and desktop effects, and 3ddesk says I need direct rendering
[11:08] <Jordan_U> Jasnation, Sorry if you already answered but what GPU ?
[11:08] <Jordan_U> ehird`, Some are some aren't
[11:08] <thepumpkin> psylon, thanks it works.
[11:08] <Jasnation> jordan_u; 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: 3Dfx Interactive, Inc. Voodoo 3 (rev 01)
[11:09] <soskel> can I see a list of features/tools that are included with ubuntu server edition?
[11:09] <ehird`> Jordan_U: imac from dec 06
[11:09] <psylon> thepumpkin: sweet. :-)
[11:09] <ehird`> Jordan_U: i have got the 32bit version working on this mac before and it worked 100% perfect
[11:09] <ehird`> Jordan_U: but never the 64bit version
[11:09] <usuario> afrodiciaco
[11:10] <Jordan_U> ehird`, Should be good IIRC, what didn't work with 64 bit?
[11:10] <ehird`> Jordan_U: the livecd just didn't boot up
[11:10] <efface> ok
[11:10] <ootm> psylon, i cant unmount it even in single user mode as its mounted as /
[11:10] <ehird`> Jordan_U: it froze at the splash screen which was gray
[11:10] <psylon> soskel: The same stuff is available in either. You just start out with a more streamlined install, without a gui by default. You get a kernel optimized for servers.
[11:10] <ehird`> Jordan_U: this was before the latest version was released
[11:10] <ehird`> Jordan_U: the one directly before; i forget what it was called
[11:10] <ehird`> not dapper
[11:11] <wolferine> Edgy
[11:11] <Jordan_U> ehird`, Edgy, are you sure the CD burned correctly?
[11:11] <LappyJay> I'm using a transparent terminal.. but I want to know if I can anchor it to always be the bottom window, as when an IM message pops up it comes below the terminal...
[11:11] <ehird`> yeah edgy
[11:11] <ehird`> and yeah it burned correctly
[11:11] <efface> i just installed the latest Nvidia drivers and now Xserver wont start...i added NV to the restricted modules list so it wont load and rebooted, didnt help, im sure this is asked all the time :P how do i fix it
[11:11] <psylon> ootm: Try mount / -o remount,rw
[11:11] <wolferine> efface, how did you install the drivers ?
[11:11] <lazaruslupine> the restricted module is named nvidia
[11:11] <ootm> psylon, thanks
[11:11] <lazaruslupine> not nv
[11:11] <Jordan_U> LappyJay, Yes, look at any tutorial for "using the terminal as a desktop background" since that is basically what they do
[11:12] <PathDaemon> Can anyone offer help with refit and GRUB?
[11:12] <psylon> soskel: It also has an automated lamp stack installation option for linux/apache/mysql/php...
[11:12] <LappyJay> Jordan_U, thanks
[11:12] <efface> wolferine: downloaded the package and ran it with sh
[11:12] <Jordan_U> !anyone | PathDaemon
[11:12] <ubotu> PathDaemon: 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?
[11:12] <wolferine> efface, Feisty ?
[11:12] <Jasnation> is it true you can use a screensaver as your desktop background?
[11:12] <efface> wolferine: gutsy
[11:12] <mattg> what do i use to convert .wma to .ogg?
[11:12] <wolferine> !gutsy | efface
[11:12] <ubotu> efface: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[11:12] <ootm> psylon, when i try anything i get "cant open /etc/fstab: input/output error   " - its /etc/fstab i wanna fix :(
[11:13] <ralphv> anyone know how to mount a data file?  mount /mnt/hda1/pupdata3 /home/ubuntu/data -o loop doesn't work, but it does work in Mepis and puppy
[11:13] <Jordan_U> efface, #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy ( and it is not "supported" like stable releases are )
[11:13] <soskel> psylon: great, thanks! 1 last question, I don't want my monitor hooked up to it all the time... so when I turn it off, can I restart it.. and all the services start up automatically?
[11:13] <wolferine> efface, or try #ubuntu-effects
[11:13] <efface> this problem is not related to what release im using.
[11:13] <psylon> ootm, sudo nano /etc/fstab
[11:13] <ehird`> so, yeah
[11:13] <edika_> Hello !
[11:13] <edika_> Need some help with my resolution on my computer screen
[11:13] <PathDaemon> Sorry, sorry.. OK. I've set up to triple boot on my SR MBP. Selecting either windows or linux drops me to GRUB. How can I separate out windows and boot it directly from rEFIt?
[11:13] <efface> i find it redundent to ask a common issue that is not build specific in another channel?
[11:13] <ootm> psylon, but  i cant write to it because its mounting the filesystem read only
[11:13] <Jordan_U> !fixres > ehird`
[11:13] <wolferine> edika, sure, what seems to be the problem ?
[11:13] <ompaul> !resolution > edika_ (please check the message from the bot)

[11:14] <Jasnation> !direct rendering
[11:14] <Jordan_U> ehird`, Wrong nick, sorry :)
[11:14] <psylon> soskel: sure, you can use the reboot command via ssh or just ctrl-alt-delete on the keyboard. No monitor required...
[11:14] <ehird`> Jordan_U: ah ok =)
[11:14] <Jasnation> !direct

[11:14] <ubotu> Jasnation: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[11:14] <psylon> ootm: Yes that would be try wouldn't it. :-) cat you paste the contents of your /etc/fstab file?
[11:15] <saudiLinux> hello every one out there
[11:15] <soskel> psylon: right.. but when I start it back up again, I want all the services to start up as well(like LAMP)... automatically.
[11:15] <GoodHabit> Hello. At kernels update /boot/grub/menu.lst updates too. But writing wrong root directory! Where I can find that settings?
[11:15] <dug_> !welcome
[11:15] <ubotu> Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel.
[11:15] <psylon> soskel: They will do that automatically unless you tell them otherwise...
[11:15] <soskel> oh
[11:15] <Jasnation> How do I enable direct rendering?
[11:15] <soskel> cool
[11:15] <KevinOman> is unrar-free still in the repositories?
[11:15] <soskel> thank you so much psylon
[11:15] <ootm> psylon, http://dpaste.com/18455/
[11:16] <KevinOman> I can't find it
[11:16] <sauvin> kevinoman, I believe so, but you might not need it. 7zip, I'm told, can do that.
[11:16] <saudiLinux> is there any way to convert mp3's to speex format????
[11:16] <psylon> Jasnatoin: Search the ubuntuforums.org site for voodoo or 3dfx.
[11:16] <ompaul> KevinOman, yes it is in universe
[11:16] <dug_> Jasnation: you can go to system->administration->restricted drivers manager to enable nvidia/ati support, or ask ubotu about desktop effects
[11:16] <KevinOman> ok thanks guys
[11:16] <jrib> KevinOman: yes, but don't bother with it since it's kind of useless.  You are using a non-free like rar anyway so just use "unrar" from multiverse
[11:16] <psylon> dug_: He has a 3dfx voodoo card...
[11:17] <sauvin> 3dfx voodo, I've not even SEEN one of those critters in about 10 years, iirc.
[11:17] <KevinOman> jrib where can I get the links to multiuniverse
[11:17] <jrib> !multiverse > KevinOman (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:17] <KevinOman> thanks
[11:17] <jrib> KevinOman: system -> administration -> software sources, see ubotu for more details
[11:18] <psylon> sauvin: Hehe, same here...
[11:18] <KevinOman> jrib im on server 6.06
[11:18] <sauvin> Do those things even support 3D acceleration?
[11:18] <jrib> !info unrar dapper
[11:18] <ubotu> unrar: Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:3.5.4-0.1 (dapper), package size 84 kB, installed size 216 kB
[11:18] <ned> ive been trying for the last 4 days to get my network card working under ubunta, with no luck.  It is a dynex DX-WGPNBC wifi. The power led doesnt even light up, but it works fine in xp. I have tried ndiswrapper with no luck.
[11:18] <jrib> KevinOman: still there :)
[11:18] <ned> any suggestions?
[11:18] <jrib> KevinOman: oh, you need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list then
[11:18] <KevinOman> ok
[11:18] <Jasnation> dug_: it won't let me get to restricted drivers manager "nothing on my system needs rest. drivers"
[11:19] <psylon> ootm: try rebooting into rescue mode or whatever ubuntu calls it to see if the fs is read only. Also what CLOSELY for any interesting feedback from the system as to why your root file system is getting put into ro mode.
[11:19] <KevinOman> with that link from ubotu?
[11:19] <dug_> Jasnation: ok, i'm not familiar with voodoo cards and ubuntu, but it looks like you may need the tdfx driver installed.  I'd search on that, for example this forum thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=18106
[11:19] <ootm> psylon, its failing because the superblock is corrupt
[11:20] <ootm> and fsck fails because /etc/fstab is corrupt
[11:20] <psylon> ned: Decent wireless cards are so cheap now days. Why not just get a decent card and throw that windows only card away!?
[11:20] <ootm> psylon, and fsck fails because /etc/fstab is corrupt
[11:20] <saudiLinux> is there any way to convert mp3's to speex format????
[11:20] <ootm> psylon, so im kinda stuck in a catch-22
[11:20] <jrib> KevinOman: yep, it mentions how to edit /etc/apt/sources.list on the command line
[11:20] <ned> i need a name of a decient out the box working card
[11:20] <ompaul> ootm, or it can be because the superblock is in trouble and it will suggest another one to use
[11:20] <_v8_> wich program can i use to download mp3 in ubuntu ???
[11:21] <psylon> ootm: Yikes. It does not look corrupt to me. Did the system tell you it was corrupt? If so what told you and what were the exact words it used?
[11:21] <sauvin> _v8_, that depends on where you want to download mp3 FROM.
[11:21] <Jasnation> is there a command or something that will enable direct rendering?
[11:21] <Kyoukipichi> Any reason why I can't connect to the Internet at all with a static IP on Ubuntu, unlike Windows?
[11:21] <_v8_> sauvin something like limewire for windows
[11:21] <toru> hi
[11:21] <sauvin> I have no damned idea what limewire might be.
[11:21] <csc`> Kyoukipichi: because you arent doing it right?
[11:21] <csc`> _v8_: yeah, its called limewire
[11:21] <psylon> Kyoukipichi. No problems for ubuntu to do that. Just make sure you set dns servers and your gateway...
[11:21] <hopender> How do I launch a program with wine from my dvd drive
[11:21] <hopender> wine <What path>
[11:21] <toru> how do I configure the audio card without alsaconf?
[11:22] <jrib> !frostwire > _v8_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:22] <ChakRa> is it possible to access sftp through a web browser? if not how can i setup a ftp on ubuntu to be able to be accessed through web browser? help would be much appreciated
[11:22] <n00dl3> hopender: wine /path/to/cd/thinger/rawr
[11:22] <csc`> try typing sftp://
[11:22] <dug_> Jasnation: I'm blanking, but I think you may need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to enable your graphics card (instead of mesa, the default non-accelerated rendering)
[11:22] <ootm> psylon: Warning couldnt open /etc/fstab: input output error. .... "the superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem"...."you might want to try running e2fsck -b 8193 <device>"
[11:22] <NMajik> Can anyone provide a link for a howto convert ubuntu to xubuntu? Can this even be done?
[11:22] <hopender> n00dl3: What would the path be tho?
[11:22] <ChakRa> thanks csc`
[11:23] <jrib> NMajik: why convert? just install "xubuntu-desktop" and then choose what you want at the login screen (options button in the corner)
[11:23] <n00dl3> hopender: Possibly /meda/cdrom. Check your #mount
[11:23] <Tmi> was there spam from me at 22:40 CET? got some weird requess and then got banned while being afk :P
[11:23] <ehird`> so fiesty should work fine with an imac, 64bit?
[11:23] <Tmi> (40 mins ago that is)
[11:23] <sauvin> Hrm... p2p... just when the feds and suchlike are getting really violent about spying on p2p nets...
[11:23] <Kyoukipichi> csc` and psylon: I tried several times, making sure the gateway and the dns servers matched that on Windows, but it still didn't work. I'm using a Linksys router.
[11:23] <psylon> ootm: What happens when you run that command?
[11:24] <Zenom> is anyone using feisty in a production server environment?
[11:24] <NMajik> jrib: I honestly don't know what I need to do. I put ubuntu on a low spec computer and have since realized that I would likely be better suited by xubuntu
[11:24] <csc`> Kyoukipichi: type this, ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.30 && dhcpcd eth0
[11:24] <psylon> Kyoukiphi: show us the ip address, netmask, dns servers and gateway you were setting please?
[11:24] <psylon> Zenom: Sure...
[11:24] <csc`> Kyoukipichi: er
[11:24] <csc`> Kyoukipichi: wait, that might work..
[11:24] <alfredo> hiii[
[11:24] <KevinOman> jrib, it looks like multiunivers is already there, just commented out, under backports sound right?
[11:25] <csc`> Kyoukipichi: replace the ip and the interface as needed
[11:25] <dug_> Zenom: feisty has been out since April, so probably many are using it in production environments
[11:25] <ootm> psylon, it says that its checking.. then it says the filesystem was modified..
[11:25] <interfoogle> hi guys
[11:25] <NMajik> jrib: Would your method allow for lower resource use but leave data intact?
[11:25] <ootm> psylon, but nothing much else
[11:25] <ootm> psylon, a reboot shows a corrupt superblock still
[11:25] <psylon> ootm: It says it modified it?
[11:25] <Zenom> dug_: ok i am testing between freebsd (which hs yet to install on my test machine), ubuntu and CentOS
[11:25] <jrib> NMajik: xubuntu and ubuntu use the same repositories, they just have different packages installed by default.  If you install xubuntu-desktop you get both ubuntu and xubuntu at the same time, no data loss
[11:25] <psylon> ootm: Is your hardware failing?
[11:25] <ootm> ootm, it says "******* FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ********"
[11:26] <ootm> psylon, , it says "******* FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ********"
[11:26] <jrib> NMajik: you remove the GNOME stuff if you want afterwards as well (google for "pure xubuntu", ask me again if you can't find it)
[11:26] <dug_> Zenom: are you talking about running a web server primarily, or did you want to use the desktop too?  If server-only, ubuntu has a server-only version
[11:26] <Zenom> dug_ server only
[11:26] <psylon> ootm: Type mount from the command line and paste the output for your root filesystem...
[11:26] <jrib> KevinOman: not "feisty-backports multiverse", make sure it is "feisty multiverse".  It isn't commented in the default sources.list I believe
[11:26] <ootm> psylon, no, its a machine with raid disks and the idiots at the datacenter were powercycling the machine without shutting it down properly
[11:26] <Zenom> but LTS is a bit out dated as well
[11:26] <Flannel> jrib, NMajik, pure xfce, not xubuntu (oddly enough): http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce

[11:26] <Jowi> NMajik, On my sub 1Ghz 512MB ram machine I installed ubuntu server and then added a lightweight WM, abiword instead of openoffice etc etc. a nice read is here
[11:27] <HLM> !pidgin
[11:27] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[11:27] <Jowi> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems
[11:27] <dug_> Zenom: the main difference is how you want to handle packages and so forth.  ubuntu & debian use 'apt-get', centos/redhat use rpm, freebsd i don't know what it uses
[11:27] <Grungebunny> ehird' pop in a liveCD and see what happens
[11:27] <KevinOman> jrib im on 6.06 does that make a difference
[11:27] <ootm> psylon, that shows a read write filesystem
[11:27] <NMajik> Jowi: What WM?
[11:27] <jrib> KevinOman: ah, right replace "feisty" with "dapper"
[11:27] <ootm> psylon, it looks like its just /etc/fstab i cant edit
[11:27] <Zenom> yeah i know what they use, i like apt-get but i also like ports(freebsd)
[11:27] <dug_> !freebsd
[11:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about freebsd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:27] <Jowi> NMajik, ion3.
[11:27] <robert_> dug_, freebsd uses ports
[11:27] <KevinOman> jrib ok thanks
[11:27] <interfoogle> hey guys, has anyone had experience installing Freenet 0.5 under Ubuntu 7.04?
[11:27] <ootm> psylon, its empty if i look at it with nano - can i force a delete and enter it manually?
[11:27] <NMajik> Flannel, jrib: Thanks
[11:28] <NMajik> Jowi: Alright, thank you
[11:28] <_v8_> beryl
[11:28] <begginner> wherehi
[11:28] <ootm> psylon, trying to remove fstab i get "rm: cannot lstat 'fstab': input/output error"
[11:28] <begginner> hi
[11:28] <Jowi> NMajik, but Open box is great as well. Window Maker is good, ice-wm as well. thunar or pcmanfm as a filemanager.
[11:28] <sam1337> I have a fully updated version of ubuntu gutsy and with compiz fusion running glxgears and any opengl game i run instantly restarts x. Could anybody please help me solve this problem?
[11:28] <begginner> wheres is programs directory?
[11:29] <psylon> ootm: It sounds like you have hardware failing. I would back up (or reinstall) your system after figuring out what is not working right. Check hard drives first of course...
[11:29] <Flannel> sam1337: #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy support, thanks.
[11:29] <ehird`> where's the lowdown on intel mac+fiesty?
[11:29] <jrib> begginner: why? what are you looking for?
[11:29] <sam1337> Flannel sorry
[11:29] <begginner> wine directory
[11:29] <ootm> psylon, its a pair of raid 1 drives
[11:29] <Jowi> NMajik, as long as you stay away from the heavy weights you're good to go (gnome, kde, xfce is getting there)
[11:29] <begginner> am trying to run wine
[11:29] <KevinOman> jrib deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-backports main restricted universe multiverse is that what your talking about?
[11:29] <NMajik> Jowi: how bad is xfce on a low spec computer?
[11:29] <tehmaze> hello
[11:29] <ootm> psylon, thanks for all your help
[11:29] <jrib> begginner: ~/.wine    ~ means /home/username and .wine is a hidden directory (view -> show hidden files  to view)
[11:30] <psylon> ootm: Sorry that came out garbled... In linux stuff doesn't just break. Something helps it a long. Unless you were mucking with it, then most likely you have hardware filing...
[11:30] <dhq> MWS43, well sorry couldnt help you
[11:30] <jrib> !wine > begginner (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:30] <dug_> interfoogle: sorry, no experience with freenet, i see there isn't a current freenet ubuntu package: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=freenet+ubuntu&btnG=Search
[11:30] <psylon> ootm: *failing...
[11:30] <tehmaze> I am the owner of the QnA bot, did it cause any troubles here?
[11:30] <Jowi> NMajik, it's not bad. but it used to be much better.
[11:30] <NMajik> Jowi: OK
[11:30] <begginner> ok thanx
[11:30] <psylon> ootm: backup data and reinstall...
[11:30] <antibody__> if I change all the gusty entries  to "feisty" in sources.list does the sys downgrades?
[11:30] <NMajik> Jowi: I'm doing this over VNC, will I run into problems changing over using the instructions at http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce ?
[11:31] <ootm> psylon, i know. it was the idiots at the datacenter messin with it ( i took it to a new place today ) - backup & restore isnt an easy option as its 50miles away.
[11:31] <Kyoukipichi> psylon: IP address: 192.168.1.111, Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0, Default gateway: 192.168.1.1, DNS server: 192.168.1.1 (sorry for the delay, my computer's just being slow again)
[11:31] <Flannel> antibody__: No, downgrades are trickeir than that, since your versions will be higher in gutsy than feisty repos
[11:31] <ehird`> :/
[11:31] <ootm> psylon, thanks anyhow. :)
[11:31] <wolferine> antibody__, are you running gutsy or feisty ?
[11:31] <antibody__> gutsy :(
[11:31] <antibody__> bad move
[11:31] <antibody__> NetworkManager doesn't work right
[11:31] <antibody__> now nvidia got broken too
[11:31] <antibody__> feisty was better when it was being developed
[11:32] <wolferine> antibody__, please keep your questions to one line, thanks
[11:32] <Tmi> boyam: yeah that was what happened, i just wondered if something was posted from me since I got those weird request-messages :)
[11:32] <Jowi> NMajik, i doubt you will run into problems. if you do you can re-install ubuntu-desktop and you should be alright.
[11:32] <Javid> Is there some trick to getting DVDs to play? I'm using Feisty and when I put the disc in, totem pops up but then doesn't do anything
[11:32] <interfoogle> dug_ - thanks... I've been running into silly java installation problems with it... cant find any online answers either
[11:32] <ralphv> !mount > ralphv
[11:32] <Flannel> Tmi: nah, just spammers.  Your flood was your repsonses to their sends.
[11:32] <dug_> antibody__: here's a bug report about it, if it has more info for you (instead of downgrading): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/+source/network-manager/+bug/121439
[11:32] <psylon> ootm: no problem...
[11:33] <NMajik> Jowi: OK. I just don't have a monitor or keyboard around so it would be something of a pain if it was to be problematic
[11:33] <dtangis> is there something to play ram
[11:33] <ehird`> surely people use it
[11:33] <NMajik> Jowi: Not quite true, I'd just have too look for them
[11:33] <Jowi> NMajik, depends on how you have set up vnc
[11:33] <boyam> Tmi: no worries, sometimes ops have to do a lil house cleaning and innocent bystanders are in the cross fire.....
[11:33] <antibody__> Dug_ I did bug report
[11:33] <NMajik> Jowi: What should I be concerned about specifically?
[11:33] <antibody__> dug_ on the network manager
[11:33] <psylon> Kyoukipichi: can you ping your gateway?
[11:34] <dug_> interfoogle: do you have java6 installed?  and add this to the top of the /etc/jvm file: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
[11:34] <Jowi> NMajik, if you use ~/.vnc/xstartup script it's the same. if you use gnome's VINO then you probably can run into login probs.
[11:35] <NMajik> Jowi: Nuts, I'm using VINO I think. I'll change that
[11:35] <dug_> antibody__: it looks like hundreds of people are having problems with the networkmanager in gutsy, so hopefully it will be fixed very shortly, but i know you need a better solution
[11:35] <interfoogle> dug_: I've got java6... will add as suggested.. thanks meanwhile
[11:35] <kitche> !gutsy | antibody__
[11:35] <ubotu> antibody__: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[11:35] <Jowi> NMajik, if you have an ssh server active on the remote machine then you at least have a command line backup to restore some settings.
[11:36] <antibody__> Kitche I didn't ask for gutsy support here
[11:36] <antibody__> I asked how to go back to feisty
[11:36] <ironmatar> how come i get a stable build going aparently  and ever time i updated it the updates totally destroy the install so bad hat nothing iv tried has worked to clean up the problem
[11:36] <kitche> antibody__easy reinstall
[11:36] <farida> hi can anyone help - i'm having problems installing a web application running on tomcat5.5 using log4j.
[11:37] <Jowi> !downgrade | antibody__
[11:37] <ubotu> antibody__: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[11:37] <antibody__> kitche, :/ have other apps besides apt-get
[11:37] <antibody__> ones
[11:37] <NMajik> Jowi: I don't... that could have been an unpleasant oversight.
[11:37] <antibody__> lol
[11:37] <antibody__> :D
[11:37] <dug_> antibody__: if i were you, i would install feisty in a separate partition or something temporarily and just keep upgrading gutsy until they fix the problem (which i'm sure they will by october)
[11:37] <ironmatar> i have 1 hd iv installed so may times it is destroyed i think as it returnes about a 7x segmentation fault
[11:37] <antibody__> dug_, :/ well..bah.
[11:37] <antibody__> :(
[11:37] <kitche> antibody__: your point being only way to downgrade is reinstall
[11:37] <Javid> If I was to dutifully do the apt-get distro upgrade every new release, would it ever be necessary to do a full disk reinstall?
[11:38] <PriceChild> Javid, not unless you break something
[11:38] <Flannel> Javid: nope
[11:38] <Javid> sweet
[11:38] <Flannel> Javid: that's no excuse for not backing things up though.
[11:38] <dug_> !backup
[11:38] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[11:38] <Jowi> Javid, bear in mind though that sometimes an upgrade fail (different reasons for different people)
[11:38] <ironmatar> is there SOME way or some program that will fix the continuing problems trying to get ubuntu to work
[11:38] <psylon> !cloning
[11:38] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[11:38] <interfoogle> so to get to the next alpha5 release, that's all we need to do? apt-get distro upgrade?

[11:40] <ironmatar> dug_:  i run the install  and reboot and either its stable  or its not and re install seems to be the only way to fix it    iv tried both versions of the distro 32 bit and 64  and if its stable after reboot then the update packages break it
[11:40] <samad> dug: tell me about it :-/

[11:46] <ironmatar> i do not understand  why this os is so hard to set up and get running when every one says its easy  that i talked to about linux before embarking on this headach
[11:46] <PriceChild> boarderwinterman, yes it does. Now read what it said.
[11:46] <jrib> ironmatar: what are you having trouble with?
[11:46] <samad> cool, thx
[11:46] <boarderwinterman> !gutsy
[11:46] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[11:46] <boarderwinterman> ah it does
[11:47] <boarderwinterman> i spelled it wrong ;)
[11:47] <PriceChild> boarderwinterman, and ubotu told you the correct spelling
[11:47] <nickrud> MetCom, it's mounted on /media , and nautilus puts a launcher on the desktop for anything mounted there. You probably have something open in that partition
[11:47] <boarderwinterman> thats right but i gussed i wrote gutsy
[11:47] <ehird`> anyone?
[11:47] <ironmatar> jrib:  everything aparently   either the install borks at reboot or its stable and runnign the updates borks it and it wont boot
[11:48] <MetCom> nothing should be running from that partitin (im dual booting xp and ubuntu by the way) , nickrud
[11:48] <psylon> ironmatar: I have been watching. Either your hardware is broken or incompatible. Consider seeing if it is stable with another os and if so, consider taking it down to your local linux users group to check for compatiblity.
[11:48] <dug_> ironmatar: I can't find anything about a k9f motherboard from msicomputer.  is it on this site?: http://www.msicomputer.com/
[11:48] <nickrud> MetCom, not necessarily running, but opened. try    lsof | grep media     in a terminal
[11:48] <jrib> ironmatar: do you get error messages?
[11:49] <MetCom> nickrud: ok
[11:49] <MetCom> nickrud: , didnt seem to do anything
[11:49] <nickrud> MetCom, if there was, you'd see some output.
[11:49] <Phydoux> OK I havent done this in a while. I need to kill an application. It is slowing down my system something fierce! how do i do that?
[11:50] <nickrud> MetCom, try sudo umount /media/<partitionname>
[11:50] <MetCom> nickrud ok
[11:50] <jrib> Phydoux: system -> administration -> system montiro, 'kill', 'pkill', or 'xkill' (easiest for gui apps)
[11:50] <psylon> Phydoux: Use sudo top to find its pid then type k to enter the pid and kill it.
[11:50] <BigToe> yay, thanks PriceChild
[11:51] <MetCom> nickrud: that worked
[11:51] <RichiH> tehmaze: did you just write email to us?
[11:51] <MetCom> but, is it going to be mounted everytime i restart?
[11:51] <ironmatar> scuse k9n sli platinum
[11:51] <patbam> hi, i'm having weird problems with sound on my machine; the maximum volume seems to get lower and lower for reasons that i cannot decipher. can anyone give me a hint about where to start debugging?
[11:51] <RichiH> tehmaze: us being staff
[11:51] <tehmaze> RichiH: I wrote staff@freenode about it
[11:51] <MetCom> patba, in the terminal have you ever opened "alsamixer"?
[11:52] <Javid> Whoever did !dvd on me, the repos in the second link is broken
[11:52] <psylon> Phydoux: I like to run the gnome system monitor applet on my task bar. Just click on it to bring up a list of tasks that your can right click on and kill...
[11:52] <Phydoux> sudo what to get the pid?
[11:52] <PriceChild> Javid, I'll fix that, gimme a min
[11:52] <nickrud> MetCom, good question :)  I put my ntfs partitions in /etc/fstab with explicit mountings under /win_c and /win_d , when I installed
[11:52] <Javid> okie
[11:52] <psylon> !dvd
[11:52] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[11:52] <patbam> MetCom: yeah, i have futzed with that for a few years. but tweaking it now seems to have no effect, and all the "knobs" there that used to have an effect now  have none (and are at max)
[11:53] <MetCom> patbam: ok, thats all i can suggest. sorry
[11:53] <PriceChild> Javid, what's broken with them?
[11:53] <RichiH> tehmaze: ah, k
[11:53] <Javid> one sec
[11:53] <patbam> MetCom: ok, thanks
[11:53] <dug_> ironmatar: sorry, can't find much, but i did a search like this one: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=k9n+ubuntu&btnG=Search
[11:53] <Javid> Failed to fetch http://seveas.imbrandon.com/dists/feisty-seveas/extras/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404 Not Found
[11:53] <psylon> Javid: Try the medibuntu repository! :-)
[11:53] <Javid> does it have libdvdcss3?
[11:53] <MetCom> nickrud: ok, well thanks for the help
[11:53] <RichiH> tehmaze: it has already been unklined
[11:53] <Phydoux> psylon, Thanks. I like that much better :)
[11:53] <MetCom> as long as i can get it off the desktop i dont really care
[11:53] <ebola_> I just installed amule and something is wrong. I have clicked to get the server list because I don't have any servers and can not connect, so it starts to look for the server and crushes. I tried various times. then I reinstalled the program - the same. do you have some server list adress that I could try?
[11:53] <RichiH> tehmaze: was collateral damage, sorry
[11:53] <PriceChild> Javid, then choose a different mirror
[11:54] <Roham> where can I ask for help if it is abouit compizfusion
[11:54] <PriceChild> Javid, there are 6 there :)
[11:54] <psylon> Phydoux: Sweet...
[11:54] <PriceChild> Roham, #ubuntu-effects or #compiz-fusion
[11:54] <Javid> I've tried 2 already, I see a pattern forming
[11:54] <ehird`> is there a channel for intel mac users =/
[11:54] <Phydoux> YEs indeed but something is still dragging down my ssystem...
[11:55] <dug_> ehird`: you mean intel mac users of ubuntu?
[11:55] <ironmatar> psylon:  originallt i installed xp and due to the fact of it being a Original Xp disc and sp 1 not being onthe ms distro of updates anymore  wgavt totally borked that install  and some knotheads at customer service  suggested i needed to spend another 200 bucks on a new cd  i laughed at them
[11:56] <dug_> ehird`: if you are wanting to try ubuntu on an intel mac, i tried it for the first time on a computer at school and it worked but had some glitches.  you might try the newer ubuntu gutsy tribe 5 release
[11:56] <sdgreen> M$ just wants money
[11:56] <benzs_s> who doesn't?
[11:56] <dug_> gandhi?
[11:57] <benzs_s> sure but he's dead
[11:57] <VSpike> Can anyone tell me how I can go about allowing regular users to mount cifs shares in their own directories?
[11:57] <easytiger_home> i had the old beta cd of fiesty around so i tried it on my new laptop and the wireles et al worked great.....        so i got the ;atest cd and installed it and the wireless doesnt work no matter what i do
[11:57] <psylon> ironmatar: If it is a legit copy and you have your cd-key, then just try reinstalling it. If it won't install, then you probably do have hardware problems...
[11:57] <easytiger_home> it gets an ip address but it is totally wrong. is an intel pro wireless
[11:57] <largo> does anyone have any information about the problem with AGP reporting 0x bus speed in Feisty? (2.6.20 kernel)
[11:58] <kitche> easytiger_home: well the ip is right but you need to dhcp the interface the ip it gets is from avahi
[11:58] <andrea_> sera
[11:58] <tehmaze> RichiH: thanks for your time
[11:58] <Stormx2> How do I get information on whether a specific kernel module is loaded?
[11:58] <andrea_> chi mi dice come si fa ad accenmdere il led della wifi?
[11:58] <RichiH> tehmaze: no problem at all
[11:58] <ironmatar> is there some kind of checker program? i can run?
[11:59] <RichiH> tehmaze: glad to help
[11:59] <easytiger_home> kitche: dhcpclient you mean?
[11:59] <psylon> Stormx2: lsmod | less
[11:59] <VSpike> !it | andrea_
[11:59] <ubotu> andrea_: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[11:59] <kitche> easytiger_home dhcpcd is whazt I mean or dhclient
[11:59] <psylon> Stormx2: Type q to get out of less...
[11:59] <[CK] Daemon> hey guys, can i get some help with Wine and steam?
[11:59] <easytiger_home> kitche: yea it doesnt work
[11:59] <Stormx2> psylon: Looks like a module supporting my wireless card is there. It's not showing up in my network manager - should I reboot?
[11:59] <easytiger_home> kitche: and the ip it seems to have is not from my subnet
[11:59] <dug_> VSpike: i don't know anything about cifs, but did find this: http://www.jejik.com/articles/2007/07/automatically_mounting_and_unmounting_samba_windows_shares_with_cifs/
[12:00] <Stormx2> psylon: lsusb doesn't seem to recognise it.... :(
[12:00] <SubSonik> hello all
[12:00] <psylon> Stormx2: You sure it is a card that is supported by network manager? Not all of them are...
[12:00] <ironmatar> i dont undestand why i would have hardware problems
[12:00] <easytiger_home> and what should i be using.... WPA, WEP, WEP-PSK ?
[12:00] <Pelo> Ironhand, did you lookup your hardware in the forum and the hardware list ?
[12:01] <SubSonik> I am having problems with nvidia dvi output into my Sony HDTV. can anyone help?
[12:01] <Stormx2> psylon: Well, I read some old threads about how this kernel module (zd1211) would support it, but I just don't know.
[12:01] <psylon> ironmater: It happens. Especially when hardware is brand new.
[12:01] <dug_> easytiger_home: wpa and wpa2 are more secure than wep
[12:01] <easytiger_home> dug_: i would rather it just worked like it did in the beta
[12:01] <Pelo> SubSonik, if no one here can , look up your model in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[12:01] <gerro> SubSonik: what have you done so far?
[12:01] <ironmatar> well i did not get the most beeding edge stuff avaliable
[12:02] <ironmatar> er bleeding
[12:02] <psylon> Stormx2: There is a page with supported hardware here: http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManagerHardware
[12:02] <SubSonik> Pelo, I am, but not much help so far.
[12:02] <gerro> SubSonik: dvi stands for digital video input so how can it be outputting?
[12:02] <VSpike> dug_: interesting - thanks
[12:02] <Pelo> SubSonik, you can also try searching in more general therms like   nvidia tvout
[12:02] <Stormx2> psylon: Cheers, I'll check it over.
[12:02] <psylon> ironmater: Make sure it works with Windows before assuming that it isn't broken!
[12:02] <VSpike> dvi = Digital Visual Interface
[12:02] <easytiger_home> it doesnt work even when i turn off encryption
[12:02] <dug_> ironmatar: yeah we had an e-machine computer at home, it was about a year before ubuntu worked on it.  now ubuntu works flawlessly.  you might try the pre-release ubuntu gutsy tribe 5 version CD: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/tribe5
[12:02] <SubSonik> gerro: I installed the OS and got everything working on a flat screen monitor. However, when I switched to teh DVI, I could only get up to 800x600
[12:03] <[CK] Daemon> Hey would anyone know why i have no sound, i can use my mic but cant recieve sound. I was testing on teamspeak.
[12:03] <SkareCrow> its official, i am finally doing it!
[12:03] <gerro> SubSonik: is that possibly a xorg.conf issue?
[12:03] <SkareCrow> i am dumping windows for ubuntu
[12:03] <[CK] Daemon> SkareCrow: I did.
[12:03] <psylon> SkareCrow: Sweet
[12:03] <Siph0n> SkareCrow: me too lol
[12:03] <Pelo> [CK] Daemon,   in the terminal  type alsamixer , make sure that the the mic is turn on on capture and that the rest if turned on for output ( or whatever it is)
[12:03] <psylon> Does x-chat have some sort of auto-completion for handles?
[12:04] <SkareCrow> i figured i would just run windows in a VM to test and program applications for windows
[12:04] <gerro> SkareCrow: I did too for over a year then went back and was dissappointed so back to using good ol' ubuntu
[12:04] <dug_> ironmatar: usually when ubuntu won't install or run on a new motherboard, it is some issue with the bios.  maybe msi has a bios update, or again, try ubuntu gutsy perhaps
[12:04] <Pelo> SkareCrow,  congradulations
