[12:04] <ni1s> bobbo, yes
[12:04] <bobbo> n1ls will probably go with that then. Thanks
[12:04] <NeddySeagoon> ni1s, thats how the kernel auto starts kernel raid - it uses the fd partition type
[12:05] <staehrmedia> bobbo, Is that only for root?
[12:05] <azi> Jordan_U: never used that
[12:05] <azi> Jordan_U: what shall i run?
[12:05] <Jordan_U> azi, Don't actually know what vnc server Ubuntu uses by default, you can cheat by ssh -X ing in and running "vino-preferences"
[12:05] <ni1s> NeddySeagoon, problem is that last time I tried Ubuntu it failed to properly deteced my software raid, Gentoo does it perfectly
[12:05] <nerdboy1024> nerd@nerdbook8:~$ echo "this is a test" > /dev/lp0
[12:05] <nerdboy1024> bash: /dev/lpr: Permission denied
[12:05] <HeinOji> I'm having trouble running the live CD, I keep recieving an error "can't access tty; job control turned off" (and I'm expecting that a ghost partition is the cause of it). I'm using an Acer Aspire 5920G with oem vistahh .
[12:06] <mag_> hello, I have some problems with a SATA HD, I have ubuntu installed on a one Hd but some days ago I bougth a new SATA hd, the problem is that I can't mount, it has 320 GB of capacity, but when I try to mount it ubuntu says that the capacity of my new hd is 128MG and I can't write enside of this.... what should I do ?
[12:06] <nerdboy1024> anyone have an idea to fix this
[12:06] <taime1> i followed the tutorial about how to reinstall grub, but it will not list my windows installation...what gives?
[12:06] <HeinOji> The workarounds from all 17 pages of community documentations gave me none.
[12:06] <yakov> guys, I have problems reading CPU temp and other sensor's data using GKRellm..
[12:06] <yakov> maybe it's outdated software for this purpuse?
[12:06] <yakov> I have Feisty
[12:06] <NeddySeagoon> ni1s, you can use mdadm to start your raid, if it fails to auto start
[12:07] <Jordan_U> nerdboy1024, Be very careful with sending things directly to hardware... but it would be "echo this is a test | sudo tee /dev/lp0"
[12:07] <^woznihack^> good night
[12:07] <mike6546> under winecfg's audio tab, I can't see my Audigy 2 ZS (it should be under OSS Drive)
[12:07] <ni1s> NeddySeagoon, yes, if I stop the assembled raid(from autodetect), remove it, the create it with mdadm, pain to do this every time I reboot thou
[12:08] <Jordan_U> Y_O_U_, , Try installing konq and see if it works
[12:08] <nerdboy1024> what would happen if i chmod /dev/lp0
[12:08] <west> how do i unzip .zip file in ubuntu ?
[12:08] <pvl1> whats the command to see hardware?
[12:08] <Jordan_U> west, double click it
[12:08] <robert_> I can install ubuntu to a thumbdrive, cant I?
[12:08] <nerdboy1024> chmod 777 /dev/lp0
[12:08] <Jordan_U> pvl1, lspci, lshal, lshw
[12:09] <pvl1> ty Jordan_U
[12:09] <Jordan_U> robert_, Yes
[12:09] <robert_> Jordan_U, I thought so.
[12:09] <west> Jordan_U: error: the utility unzip is not in your PATH
[12:09] <NeddySeagoon> ni1s, You need the raid personalities in your kernel/initrd for autodetect to work and the partition types that go into the raid must be fd
[12:09] <KlrSpz> is it safe to remove all files in: /var/cache/apt/archives
[12:09] <robert_> Jordan_U, then why does Setup always want to select the primary IDE disk on the laptop?

[12:13] <robert_> why https though?
[12:13] <ni1s> NeddySeagoon, right, though maybe giving the kernel md=/dev/md1,/dev/hda3,/dev/hdb4 (or whatever) would work
[12:13] <Jordan_U> robert_, I don't know, wiki.ubuntu.com just likes https :)
[12:13] <NeddySeagoon> ni1s, maybe - as you say, it justworks in Gentoo
[12:14] <nvrpunk> how do I remove files below a certain size, say 1 meg?

[12:21] <maek> Megaqwerty: is there a way I can test, or a module I can apt add?
[12:22] <maek> WaltzingAlong: any way to test? I dont see anything from lsmod |grep tun or tap
[12:22] <Megaqwerty> maek: well, give me a sec...I'll check
[12:22] <maek> Megaqwerty: thanks
[12:22] <maek> Megaqwerty: im sorry
[12:22] <maek> as soon asn I fired up the vpnc for the second time it loaded tun

[12:23] <Abu_Hamza> can i start a firefox session that when i close, doesn't remember the cached pages or search strings that i used?
[12:23] <WaltzingAlong> maek: great. well i am using it anyway ;)
[12:23] <SireeBob> Would I have better performance/luck with Ubuntu on an Intel Core 2 Duo going with i386 or AMD64?
[12:23] <Jordan_U> GarethAdams, np, and that will let you built it into a real .deb, not a non standard dependency missing one like checkinstall does
[12:23] <[LUCIAN] > Abu_Hamza, get DemocraKey
[12:24] <apo_> Abu_Hamza: You could make a separate profile that always deletes its history and stuff, I guess
[12:24] <Abu_Hamza> apo_: how can i create a profile?
[12:24] <Jordan_U> SireeBob, x86 is less work, and 64 bit is not much use on a Desktop currently
[12:24] <apo_> Abu_Hamza: Dunno, man firefox
[12:24] <Abu_Hamza> woman firefox
[12:24] <SireeBob> Jordan_U: Would it make a difference if I had 4GB+ of RAM?
[12:25] <JosephW__> Hello, all.  I was wondering if anybody could help me with a basic question regarding setting up a dual-book Macbook Pro and how to install BootCamp.  Most of the instructions I've been following in the forums and on the Wiki say "install Bootcamp" and then "shrink the Mac partition."  However, I'm not sure if that means the partition I create in Bootcamp will be the one I am using to install Ubuntu, or if I'm just ultimately
[12:25] <JosephW__> creating an empty partition (I don't have Windows) and then shrinking the Mac partition to create unpartitioned space.
[12:25] <[LUCIAN] > Abu_Hamza, man firefox is what you type in a terminal to get the manual
[12:25] <crabgrass> if i already have a partition that mounts to /home and i have another drive with another partition, can i hack together some kinda software raid to point them both at /home ?
[12:25] <apo_> What [LUCIAN]  said :P
[12:25] <[LUCIAN] > :] 
[12:26] <maek> WaltzingAlong: are you using vpnc?
[12:26] <Jordan_U> SireeBob, Yes, though the server kernel can handle 4+ GIG even on x86, the "generic" kernel cannot
[12:26] <WaltzingAlong> maek: openvpn
[12:26] <Evanlec> if u got 4gb+ ram then...you're probably on a server already
[12:26] <biouser> does anyone know how to play a video?
[12:26] <maek> WaltzingAlong: ah, thanks.
[12:26] <Evanlec> double click on it?
[12:27] <Jordan_U> JosephW__, I have a macbook pro, you are just going to overwrite the partition that boot camp makes for "windows"
[12:27] <Dante123> hey, how do you get into the calendar with evolution?
[12:27] <SireeBob> Is it necessary to get an "Intel-optimized" kernel in order to get good performance with an Intel Core 2 Duo? Somebody I've talked to insists that I need to do that, or compile my own..
[12:27] <biouser> lol
[12:27] <Nalleman> hi, i wounder if its possible to rename a mp3 player, a usb device so that they get specific names instead of just "disk" or "disk-1" when mounted?
[12:27] <zegevrijtt> press play
[12:27] <zegevrijtt> :P
[12:27] <Jordan_U> JosephW__, Be ware of old / innacurate guides though
[12:27] <Evanlec> SireeBob, good question
[12:27] <biouser> I was just showing a Windows user how to get help... thought the video comment would be funny
[12:27] <apo_> Nalleman: You could probably create an udev rule for it
[12:27] <Jordan_U> Nalleman, There are a few ways to do that
[12:27] <JosephW__> Jordan_U: I'm looking at the MacbookProFeisty wiki page.
[12:28] <biouser> love you guys, see ya' later
[12:28] <Dante123> hey, how do you get into the calendar with evolution?
[12:28] <Nalleman> Jordan_U, ok, do you know any of them? ;)
[12:28] <reacocard> does anyine know if there is any linux-native homework planners/trackers?
[12:28] <Jordan_U> Nalleman, Give it a device label, manually make a udev rule, or right click it on the desktop and look in properties in Gnome
[12:28] <Dante123> ctrl 3....thanks
[12:28] <crabgrass> reacocard: i use openoffice's spreadsheet
[12:29] <WaltzingAlong> reacocard: something like freemind? or kdissert?
[12:29] <Megaqwerty> reacocard: check out mozilla's sunbird
[12:29] <Nalleman> apo_, Jordan_U  whats a udev rule?
[12:29] <Megaqwerty> reacocard: it's a calendar app, but should work well
[12:29] <JosephW__> Jordan_U: It's also unclear because it says to install rEFIt, but I thought that was only necessary if triple-loading.
[12:29] <reacocard> if I wanted a calendar I'd just use google calendar, I'm looking for something more-desgined for homework specifically
[12:29] <Jordan_U> JosephW__, It isn't ever needed, it's just nice to have :)
[12:30] <Abu_Hamza> anyone used the dildo browser?
[12:30] <apo_> Nalleman: udev is a device manager, it adds links to the devices in /dev and can execute commands when a certain device is connected to the PC
[12:30] <Megaqwerty> reacocard: oh, never mind then
[12:30] <Jordan_U> JosephW__, Otherwise you have to hold down option at boot to boot Ubuntu, and it shows up as "Windows"
[12:30] <reacocard> basically, something that takes assingments, has start/end dates, and allows assinging importance, difficutly, etc
[12:30] <apo_> And you can configure it with rules
[12:30] <necronekostar> o:

[12:30] <ompaul> np
[12:31] <Evanlec> does anyone know anything about getting an "intel optimized" kernel for ubuntu?
[12:31] <IrCYop> How do I start X in the ubuntu consol
[12:31] <mike6546> hmmm anyone know why I have to reinstall ALSA everytime I boot my computer if I want sound?
[12:31] <Nalleman> apo_, ok. I guess i will have to look at this further tomorrow. Thank you anyway.
[12:31] <necronekostar> hey ompaul out of curiosity
[12:31] <WaltzingAlong> IrCYop: startx
[12:31] <apo_> you're welcome

[12:33] <Paddy_EIRE> evri2, it would have

[12:43] <Y_O_U_> jordan_u: i agree, very strange. there an official way through ubuntu to report bugs?
[12:43] <Abu_Hamza> what's a remote desktop?
[12:43] <Paddy_EIRE> !launchpad | Y_O_U_

[12:44] <Jordan_U> Y_O_U_, The only automated / built in bug reporting is when an app crashes
[12:44] <tinin> Abu_Hamza: to connect to another pc, so you can see it's scrren and control it on a window on your pc
[12:44] <mon^rch> !kompozer
[12:44] <ubotu> kompozer is a WYSIWYG HTML editor for easily creating web pages, and the continuation of the dead Nvu project.  It will be in the Ubuntu repos for 7.10 ("gutsy"); meanwhile for other versions add the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list:  "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tonyyarusso/ubuntu {dapper,edgy,feisty} universe"  (pick your release and list it without brackets, and no quotes)
[12:44] <Abu_Hamza> i see
[12:44] <stefg> ubuntu: so if it's the root filesystem you need to check it from a Live CD or some other external system. But before assuming anything and trying dangerous operations you should rather elaborate on what doesn't work and what errors you get
[12:44] <linux_kid> I have a comp with a 111.76gb fat32 filesystem with 91.24gb free space on /dev/sda, but Gparted will not shrink it to 60gb... any help?
[12:45] <Y_O_U_> jordan_u: thats what i was wondering. thanks again for the help. ill leave you alone, looks like you have your hands full ;)
[12:45] <tinin> I've tried vnc and tightvnc, but I can't see nothing when connected
[12:45] <Jordan_U> tinin, Using compiz?
[12:45] <ubuntu> stefg:  i am onlive cd so what should u recommend i do now can u guide me
[12:45] <tinin> Jordan_U: not now, on kde it still sux a lot
[12:46] <Dante123> hi all....trying to sync palm and evolution calendar....I get an error that says usbserial 'visor' kernel module is not loaded....how do I load it?
[12:46] <Jordan_U> tinin, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vnc/+bug/77442
[12:46] <stefg> ubuntu: so if you want to check /dev/hda1 you can open a terminal, make sure that it is not mounted and run sudo fsck /dev/hda1
[12:47] <stefg> ubuntu: but if you have a bios issue that won't help in any way
[12:47] <mike6546> this blows, my sound card was working when I booted up xubuntu earlier, but not it isn't working
[12:47] <tinin> Jordan_U: Interesting, another thing why compiz still seems alpha software
[12:48] <mike6546> i didn't change any settings either
[12:48] <mike6546> any ideas?
[12:48] <eyec0n> anyone know if theres an ubuntu repo for openarena 0.7?
[12:48] <WaltzingAlong> eyec0n: grab from getdeb.net
[12:48] <tinin> Jordan_U: which program would you use?
[12:48] <ubuntu> stefg:  its unmounted but keeps saying itsmounted ont he check
[12:48] <eyec0n> thanks!
[12:48] <Jordan_U> tinin, It is stable but note that it still isn't even 1.0, so it is not feature complete yet
[12:48] <WaltzingAlong> eyec0n: cha'ching! :)
[12:49] <tovella> Dante123: "sudo modprobe visor"
[12:49] <Megaqwerty> stefg: figured it out. I needed to add "PasswordAuthentication no" to /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[12:49] <stefg> ubuntu: simply type 'mount', this will give a list and you can see if it's mounted anywhere
[12:49] <robert_> question, why must it be fat, and not ext2?
[12:49] <mikebot> How do I change the number of Desktops I have? Also, I turned on Desktop Effects, and the cube desktops thing was working, but now I cna't switch between them...
[12:50] <stefg> Megaqwerty: ahhh.... happy locking out yourself at some point :-)
[12:50] <Jordan_U> robert_, Live pen drive?
[12:50] <ubuntu> stefg:  it is named /media/disk hwo i unmount that
[12:51] <stefg> ubuntu: sudo umount /dev/hda1
[12:51] <Jordan_U> robert_, syslinux won't boot from ext2 IIRC. the whole point is that it is only really using the Fat FIle system for a file called squashfs which is mounted as / in a live session
[12:51] <ubuntu> stefg:  i tried to isntall xp on here and it said i need the drive to be a ntfs and its not ntfs
[12:51] <KevinOman> is there a download for gutsy yet
[12:51] <mikebot> KevinOman: Yea, I think Tribe 4 is out.
[12:51] <DigitalCrypto> Tribe 5 I believe it is
[12:51] <ubuntu> stefg:  unmount command not found
[12:52] <robert_> does it have to be syslinux? can it be grub?
[12:52] <KevinOman> thanks mike bot
[12:52] <tatters> http://pastebin.com/m2e0ef221     trying to access my second drive give me error "hal-storage-fixed-mount refused uid 1000
[12:52] <mikebot> KevinOman: I mean tribe 5, sorry.
[12:52] <mikebot> http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/tribe5
[12:52] <KevinOman> ok
[12:52] <flagel> how do I get rid of the annoying gnome splash-screen, editing show_splash_screen with gconf-editor does not work
[12:52] <eyec0n> jesus... waltzing thanks for that url I cant believe I didn't know about this site already
[12:52] <stefg> ubuntu: 1.) read again 2.) what does a xp install has to do with #ubuntu?
[12:52] <DigitalCrypto> Gutsy requires semi daily updates ~200MB....if you are brave
[12:53] <mike6546> how do you change your default sound card?
[12:53] <mikebot> How do I change the number of Desktops I have? Also, I turned on Desktop Effects, and the cube desktops thing was working, but now I cna't switch between them...
[12:53] <ubuntu> stefg:  nothing i was just saying its why iw as trying ot do the partition but it wont let me
[12:53] <Jordan_U> mike6546, asoundconf
[12:53] <ubuntu> stefg:  its saying unmount is not a command
[12:54] <DigitalCrypto> mikebot: CTRL ALL Left Click
[12:54] <DigitalCrypto> ALT*
[12:54] <stefg> ubuntu: read again! it's *umount*
[12:54] <ubuntu> ah sorry
[12:54] <ubuntu> stefg
[12:55] <mikebot> DigitalCrypto: Yea, that isn't working when I turn Desktop Effects on.
[12:55] <DigitalCrypto> lolz
[12:55] <zezom> I installed ubuntu on one of my systems the other day but then I swapped the cdrom out for a dvd rom but it still looks like ubuntu thinks that I have a cdrom installed. is there a way to update that sort of information so it can see that it is not a dvd?
[12:55] <mike6546> thank you whoever told me that, it worked
[12:56] <m11> mikebot , try remove window switcher from taskbar , disable effects, then enable them again
[12:56] <mikebot> m11: It was already removed prior to me turning the Effects on.
[12:56] <m11> mikebot, put them back, set to 4 screens and try run efects ON
[12:57] <mikebot> m11: OK, one second.
[12:57] <DigitalCrypto> whose bright idea was it to put compiz on feisty stable?
[12:57] <pie-rate> i want to partition my new ubuntu install with a separate /home partition. i'm using a 250gb drive, so i need the sizes for swap, /, and /home. i have 1gb of ram, so 1.5gb swap? how much space does / need to have? i mean, right now my /home on my 60gb drive is 17gb, and / is using the rest of that space, which puts it at 40gb.
[12:57] <Soup_> Anyone here use Avant Windows Manager Im getting a HUGE black bar across the bottom for some reason now?
[12:57] <ubuntu> stefg: this poped up whn i did the check Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
[12:58] <stefg> DigitalCrypto: very rightful and intelligent question..... i guess it was the l33t h4xx0rs idea asking for new toys
[12:58] <NoWay> como faco pro meu vim recuar cada linha para o mesmo nvel da linha superior??
[12:59] <mikebot> m11: Hrm, very strange: WHen I turn the effects on, or enable the cube switcher, it changes my workspaces to only one, and whne I add more, it still acts as though there is only one.

[12:59] <kitche> mikebot, yes that's how it works when you switch sides of the cube that is your other workspace you get 4

[01:00] <kitche> mikebot, you sure what does ctrl+alt+up arrow do for you
[01:00] <mikebot> And what does CTRL + ALT + UP ARROW do?

[01:02] <ubotu> adamorjames: 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

[01:03] <adamorjames> For example, 1^2, 2^3, 5^6 etc
[01:03] <adamorjames> shift + 6
[01:03] <mikebot> I guess I'll have to wait for Gutsy..
[01:04] <adamorjames> <.<
[01:04] <adamorjames> This is a stupid problem
[01:04] <adamorjames> and a major one
[01:04] <krammer> HI all of sudden I cannot connect to my router as well at my college any help
[01:04] <Pelo> adamorjames, just because the  symbol is ^doesn'T mean that it corresponds to the same key,  I suggest you check in the calculator's help file
[01:04] <Paddy_EIRE> adamorjames, hardly a major problem ;)
[01:05] <GoodHabit> I have a game at /opt/ directory. How to make shortcup in right way to use that game (simple path to bin file doesn't work - I think problem is with working directory).
[01:05] <mikebot> I think he needs to press '3 CTRL+2' to get '3^2'
[01:05] <Pelo> GoodHabit,  change the permission of the file to make it exectuable
[01:05] <gordonjcp> GoodHabit: make a little script to cd to the game directory, then run it
[01:06] <nerdboy1024> what is the command line to change ownership of a file from root to nerd the file is /dev/lp0
[01:06] <GoodHabit> gordonjcp: I dunno how-to write that scripts...
[01:06] <GoodHabit> How to do it?
[01:07] <Pelo> nerdboy1024, /dev/lp0 is not a file it's aprinter port ,  lp0 = lpt1 I believe

[01:11] <Jasnation> eyec0n: I need to learn it for school, and the program has to load on the school computers

[01:13] <vph> pelo: what is synpatic???
[01:13] <Pelo> daprie,  there is your problem ,  nvidia doesn't have Foss dirvers, you'll need to use the alternate isntall cd for the installatio0n
[01:13] <Pelo> vph, synaptic , sorry for the typo ,  if you are running gnome    menu > system > admin > synaptic package manager
[01:13] <Azures> i can't connect to the internet :(
[01:14] <Pelo> Azures,  can we have details ?
[01:14] <Grungebunny> vph a package search/installer
[01:14] <Jasnation> eyec0n: would an equivalent use all the same commands and syntax, and basically look the same as if I wrote the code in qb? because I could just transfer from one to the other with my code saved in text files
[01:15] <Azures> sure my router is a 2wire dsl/gateway and im on bellsouth dsl with a reltek 8139 nw card
[01:15] <Pelo> Azures, so this would be wireless ?

[01:17] <BlackAlex> eg: how do i enable direct rendering?
[01:17] <Azures> i tried to get inbto my router on linux no go
[01:17] <Pelo> Azures, try in menu > system > admin > network ,  select the correct device, in properties, you should have the option to use dhcp , assuming you aren'T already
[01:18] <Pelo> Azures, this ins't realy my area of expertise,  that's pretty much the best I can do for you,  you could try checking in the forum

[01:25] <BlackAlex> uhm... i used the run file provided off ATI Radeon's webstie Joran_U
[01:25] <m0u5e> are there any good sync tools out there between *nix and samba shares?
[01:25] <Grungebunny> speroni turn the wep off for a min just to see if you can connect then.
[01:25] <dburnett77> How do you enable Interactive Startup?  I've tried pressing 'I', and removing 'quiet' from menu.lst
[01:26] <Pelo> m0u5e,  I think there is a howto in there  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[01:26] <stefg> m0u5e: you'll need either smbfs or fusemb (recommende) for that
[01:26] <Timbooooo> im having problems with ubuntu on inspiron 1150, graphics dont seem to work and wireless card has issues, i havent even made it into ubuntu..

[01:29] <dburnett77> Anyone know how to do an Interactive Startup in Feisty?
[01:29] <tyoc> haha...
[01:29] <tyoc> I havent lost grub for install windows...
[01:30] <tyoc> thought that can serve..
[01:30] <Jordan_U> tyoc, Do you have a /boot?
[01:30] <tyoc> I have change the motherboard
[01:30] <Pelo> db interacative startup ?
[01:30] <tyoc> yea
[01:30] <speroni> i see the network, it asks for the key when i go to connect, but then it just times out
[01:30] <Paddy_EIRE> dburnett77, you mean like a verbose mode
[01:30] <tyoc> boot can be watched with gpoarted from LiveCD
[01:30] <dburnett77> Pelo, that's where you see what is being loaded.  I've got something failing, and I don't know what it is.
[01:30] <tyoc> if you ask... I have with the anterior motherboard a working system...
[01:31] <Grungebunny> speroni and you can connect on a neighbor wifi.. that is weird.
[01:31] <tyoc> even with the 8800 hehe
[01:31] <dburnett77> Yeah, Paddy, verbose.
[01:31] <Pelo> dburnett77, the logs are in /var/log , you can have a look there
[01:31] <Timbooooo> Jordan_U broadcom 440x 10/100 and intel 82852/82855 gm/gme
[01:31] <speroni> the problem seems to come from the wep on mine...
[01:31] <stefg> tyoc: your drive designations might have change from hda to sda (or vice versa) or hda to hdb (or combination of that). grub uses numbers, so e.g. hda1 would be (hd0,0) in grub speak
[01:31] <tyoc> the problem apparently is that GRUB now have "lost" where the partition is... or something like that???
[01:31] <Grungebunny> speroni do you have xp on dual boot ? does it work on another os? could it be your router?
[01:31] <Jordan_U> Timbooooo, I think that broadcom is your ethernet
[01:31] <Timbooooo> wait sorry
[01:31] <Timbooooo> yes sorry
[01:31] <Paddy_EIRE> Pelo, I believe he's looking for verbose.... wasnt dapper the last to do that by default
[01:31] <Jordan_U> Timbooooo, And it should work
[01:31] <dburnett77> Yeah, I did that.  I believe it's avahi-daemon, but I was wanting to see what was going on during the boot.

[01:32] <trakala> my usb devices (digital camera, usb drive) are not being detected, they worked before, but every time I ejected my flash drive to unplug it, that individual usb port would stop detecting devices until the pc was rebooted, this would happen only when ejecting anything connected to the port (i.e. flash drive, external media reader, etc). Is there anyway to kind of 'force' ubuntu (feisty fawn) to detect a usb device (digital camera)? It seemed l
[01:32] <speroni> i took my other computer, formerly running xp, wiped it and installed ubuntu it worked before
[01:32] <Timbooooo> Jordan_U i get an error with microcode5
[01:32] <Pelo> Paddy_EIRE,  I think you are correct,   then he would have to edit  menu.lst fo remove the quiet option, or add noquiet,  I don'T remember wchich
[01:32] <Timbooooo> Jordan_U there also seems to be an issue with graphics starting? im not sure whta that means
[01:33] <tyoc> stefg: then, if gparted and ~$ mount report "/dev/sda6 on /media/disk type reiserfs..." I should change to root (sda0,5)
[01:33] <spaz> hello

[01:34] <spaz> it's by sheer will/manpage browsing i manage to get all that spit out
[01:34] <dburnett77> Paddy, Pelo:  There are several 'quiet' lines in my menu.lst file.  Should I remove them all, because I've just removed the one in the default kernel section, with no luck.
[01:34] <Pelo> dburnett77,   when you get to the boot menu,    select the ubuntu entry,   type e for edit ,  find the kernel line in the entry and remove the words quiet and splash   don'T worry about messing it up those edits aren'T permanent

[01:54] <Szeraax> Asuka: do you knwo about the Xorg.conf file?
[01:54] <mrgigabyte> Timbooooo: have you tried the "pci=nomsi" on the boot commandline?
[01:54] <Szeraax> know*
[01:54] <Asuka> thats what I was about to ask
[01:54] <Asuka> how do i access Xorg?
[01:54] <pteague> Asuka> i believe you'll need to add the 1440x900 resolution to the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[01:54] <Asuka> or gconfig?
[01:54] <Timbooooo> mrgigabyte no how do i add it
[01:54] <Szeraax> Asuka: i would type 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[01:54] <mapp> Asuka /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[01:54] <Asuka> where do I type that?
[01:54] <Szeraax> console
[01:54] <mapp> Asuka; console
[01:55] <mag_> kitche, fiveofoh, Pelo: well I don't know the name in english, mmm it's someting that permite you to mount automatically someting
[01:55] <Asuka> where do I get to console from?
[01:55] <nickrud> yakov: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-apt-get.en.html#s-default-version for more details
[01:55] <mag_> kitche, fiveofoh, Pelo: Disk Manager 1.0.1
[01:55] <Thegeektechnique> Askua: the terminal.... /applications/accesories/terminal
[01:55] <Asuka> alright, so when i'm in the terminal
[01:55] <kitche> mag_, hal automounts if you don't have write permissions then your permissions is not setup right
[01:55] <Thegeektechnique> yeah

[01:55] <felipe_> plz
[01:55] <Asuka> i type  'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[01:55] <mapp> keen, yes why
[01:55] <fiveofoh> Asuka: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:55] <Szeraax> if you have nano
[01:55] <nickrud> yakov: truth in advertising: I believe feisty is the correct term, I've only done this in debian. You may need to ask around for the correct term
[01:55] <fiveofoh> Okay or nano
[01:55] <mapp> felipe; vlc not play em?
[01:55] <fiveofoh> :P

[01:55] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:56] <felipe_> nope
[01:56] <Paddy_EIRE> excellent jrib exactly what I was looking for :)
[01:56] <Szeraax> Asuka: I like nano
[01:56] <mag_> kitche, fiveofoh, Pelo: but I don't know what to do !
[01:56] <Asuka> Szeraax: What's nano?
[01:56] <keen> mapp: well i can't seem to get a good connection to mine, i wanna cop some files to it but i can't
[01:56] <mrgigabyte> Timbooooo: http://ubuntu1501.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html towards the bottom... basically F6 then type pci=nomsi to the very end of this command line.
[01:56] <felipe_> they executed, but only the voice... not the video
[01:56] <jrib> felipe_: did you read the message from ubotu?
[01:56] <Szeraax> its a text editor
[01:56] <Szeraax> Asuka: way easy to use
[01:56] <felipe_> dont know whats happening
[01:56] <mapp> how are you connect keen
[01:56] <Asuka> alright, so if I type that in, my resolution should be set to 1440x900? or do I have to do something else?
[01:56] <mapp> and is it nfs/smb?
[01:57] <keen> mapp, wifi
[01:57] <nickrud> yakov: one more thing: when you upgrade to gutsy, don't forget to update that setting
[01:57] <mapp> well it's gonna be slow, no?
[01:57] <keen> mapp, well both wifi and hardwire work about the same
[01:57] <fiveofoh> Asuka: haha no you have to go down to the bottom of the file and add that resolution to the list that's already there
[01:57] <Szeraax> Asuka: once you are into the file, you go down until you find a bunch of resolutions
[01:57] <mapp> oh
[01:57] <mapp> keen; is it nfs/samba tho
[01:57] <mag_> kitche, fiveofoh, Pelo: but is not good that, When I mount this device with disk manager it says that the capacity of sdb1 is of 191.0 MG and my HD is 320 GB !!!!!
[01:57] <SeveredCross> Wait wait wait, Asuka, are you using an ATI card?
[01:57] <mag_> kitche, fiveofoh, Pelo: why ?
[01:57] <Timbooooo> mrgigabyte ok ill try that, when i install normally, i am able to see the tan colored background but i get an error message after that
[01:57] <Szeraax> Asuka: there is a resolution set for each color depth
[01:57] <fiveofoh> mag_: I don't know, probably because Disk manager is crap
[01:57] <fiveofoh> Wait...what?
[01:57] <Asuka> (my computer is able to reach 1440x900, I'm using it on windows)
[01:58] <fiveofoh> Asuka: Yeah but linux doesn't know that
[01:58] <keen> mapp: you mean the file system?
[01:58] <SeveredCross> Asuka: What's yoru video card?
[01:58] <Asuka> (I have a geforce4 card)
[01:58] <mapp> keen;for the share yes
[01:58] <SeveredCross> Do you have nVidia drivers installed?
[01:58] <eyec0n> can anyone point me to some info on how to change compiz themes in 7.10?
[01:58] <Szeraax> Asuka: so i would to the one that is something like 24 bit depth and then add "1440x900" by the other resolutions
[01:58] <keen> mapp: its ntfs
[01:58] <jrib> !effects > eyec0n (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:58] <Asuka> alright, and that should do it?
[01:58] <mapp> no i mean the share how are you transferring , accessing linux -> win etc
[01:58] <mapp> samba or nfs?
[01:58] <fosstux> Hi! I'm currently seeking a web software which should do the following: Project Management (only a container for other things), Bug / issue tracker, forum, Documentation (userand dev). Ideally I'd like to have something similar like sourceforge or developer.berlios.de, but integrated into my own site. Any ideas?
[01:58] <Szeraax> after you restart X
[01:58] <mag_> kitche, fiveofoh, Pelo: but If I type this : mount  -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /media/backup the device is mounted, but I can't write enside of !
[01:58] <keen> mapp: linux to win
[01:58] <eyec0n> !effects
[01:59] <mag_> kitche, fiveofoh, Pelo: What should I do ?
[01:59] <ubotu> For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[01:59] <eyec0n> thanks
[01:59] <Asuka> is x the terminal?
[01:59] <Szeraax> (oh and save) Asuka. if you used nano, type [ctrl]  x to exit
[01:59] <Szeraax> X is the X windows system
[01:59] <mapp> felipe; democracyplayer or perhaps xine?
[01:59] <keen> mapp: as for nfs, or samba.  i'm not sure. i'm not familiar with those terms (never liked networking)
[01:59] <kitche> mag_, of course not you don't have the permissions to
[01:59] <Asuka> so in other words, restart the compy?
[01:59] <felipe_> xine doesnt works...
[01:59] <kitche> !permissions | mag_
[01:59] <ubotu> mag_: 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
[01:59] <mapp> oh
[01:59] <Szeraax> [ctrl]  palt]  backspace
[01:59] <Szeraax> Asuka: for me
[01:59] <jrib> fosstux: trac?  don't think it has a forum though

[02:00] <ubotu> felipe_: 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 :)

[02:07] <flokuehn> the special repo
[02:07] <felipe_> jrib: this one my mplayer isnt running
[02:07] <[Wally] > Is there a live CD that has a default password?  I'd like to boot from a cd, then ssh into the box to start an installation.  That way I don't need to hook up a monitor.
[02:07] <mapp> felipe; i just tried your url and it works
[02:07] <flokuehn> [Wally] : no default images have that for security reasons
[02:07] <mapp> felipe; the url jrib pasted for u worked?!

[02:10] <tatters> how do I tell linux what volume type a hard drive is
[02:11] <unhkk> ah cool
[02:11] <Muelli> unhkk: then you will have /your/file.gpg and it's (hopefully) encrypted
[02:11] <felipe_> mapp: hey... i noticed now the problem... if i try running it from double-clicking the file, it doesn't work... but, if i run from the console, it works... so, probably, is some parameter that are mistaken...
[02:12] <Timbooooo> when i run the live cd i get a message "there was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon. theme,s sounds, or background settings may not work correctly" "Gnome will still try to resrt the setting daemon next time you log in"

[02:18] <bigboss007> was just looking for shortcut.. so far all i could think of was to echo file > .bash_history... then ctl+r to find it at cli input line

[02:18] <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+)
[02:18] <serenityUK> bigboss007: oh it's a one line file with a command you want to execute?
[02:18] <bigboss007> yessssss
[02:18] <bigboss007> lol
[02:18] <bigboss007> exactly
[02:19] <serenityUK> bigboss007: change it to executable with  chmod u+x  somefile   ....
[02:19] <SineFato> Muelli: Do I just make folder then make it shared? There are only the two of us on this net work
[02:19] <bigboss007> no
[02:19] <nickrud> Muelli: maybe soon ;)
[02:19] <bigboss007> dont want to run bash script
[02:19] <bigboss007> just paste to cli input
[02:19] <serenityUK> bigboss007: then execute  with  ./somefile
[02:19] <bigboss007> thats all
[02:19] <mike3_> hey guys, which command loads software-sources from the command line?
[02:19] <bigboss007> just thought a guru here had some trick
[02:19] <bigboss007> or shortcut
[02:19] <bruenig> mike3_, loads is a bit confusing but I guess you mean apt-get update
[02:19] <Muelli> ah SineFato. I'm sorry. Don't listen to me. No need to setup a seperate user. I though of filesharing over ssh which I do regularly. But you might want to use samba, so no need to set a seperate user up
[02:20] <Tanman> i was just wondering on my ubuntu server fiesty as to the reason why top would not run anymore
[02:20] <mike3_> bruenig, I need to enable "Pre-relases"
[02:20] <tatters> if I delete my fstab will one be automatically created at bootup?
[02:20] <ShackJac1> Hi all - having wireless networking issue... It can evidentally see my care and iwconfig shows it connected to correct network - but no signal - any ideas?
[02:20] <Muelli> mike3_: if you mean the source code of a software, then you want to use apt-get source $yourpackage
[02:20] <Tanman> it seems to just hang there
[02:20] <bruenig> mike3_, what is that?
[02:21] <lullis> Hi everyone. Could someone please point me to a decent and definite guide about sound servers and configuration in 64 bits Linux ? It's been two days now that I am trying to figure out what is needed to get (a) a sound server that doesn't hang out of nowhere and (b) a working microphone.
[02:21] <mike3_> System->Administration->Software Sources.
[02:21] <keen> mapp, you still here?
[02:21] <bruenig> some stupid name that they give to something to make it "easier" I guess
[02:21] <tatters> #join #kubuntu
[02:21] <Muelli> lullis: hm. didn't get you. Do you want to stream music over the net? Or what else is a "sound server"?
[02:21] <keen> can anyone help me with sharing files on a windows network?
[02:22] <SineFato> Muelli: I just tried to apt-get it and it says that I already have it. Where would I find it because it's not in the applications menu
[02:22] <tatters> #join #kubuntu
[02:22] <tatters> :/
[02:22] <ycmarvin> how do i uninstall ubuntu
[02:22] <lullis> A sound daemon, like ALSA.
[02:22] <sudobash> install xp
[02:22] <sudobash> but why ubuntu is awesome
[02:22] <SineFato> go into your my documents folder and double click 'surrender' ..... :-D
[02:22] <Jasnation> wine "C:\Program Files\Program\Program.exe"
[02:22] <Jasnation>  will run a program with wine right?
[02:22] <sudobash> screw micro$oft
[02:22] <Muelli> SineFato: I have no idea about setting up samba share as I don't use them. I don't know whether it's easy or not. Just ask the channel and wait paitiently :)
[02:23] <mike3_> can somebody tell me which binary name is called when accessing "Software Sources"
[02:23] <mike3_> ?
[02:23] <lullis> It is just for my desktop, actually. It is a Athlon X2 in a ASUS mobo with a nVidia chipset.
[02:23] <Muelli> Jasnation: probably yes...
[02:23] <serenityUK> Jasnation: give it the linux path such as wine /media/winxp/some.exe
[02:23] <Jasnation> or should I type wine "/home/user/.wine/drive_c/program files/program.exe" ?
[02:23] <Muelli> mike3_: you can investigate on yourself by looking at "ps" or "top". But I think it might be synaptic or "update-manager"
[02:24] <Muelli> Jasnation: I think both is pretty correct
[02:24] <serenityUK> Jasnation: unless you installed it in the fake program files
[02:24] <Jasnation> I didn't install it, its actually in the "c" drive
[02:24] <ycmarvin> sudobash i just want to try fedora
[02:24] <Muelli> Jasnation: why don't you just try it?!
[02:24] <kahrytan> Jasnation, still has to be a path. not windows path
[02:25] <keen> can anyone help me with sharing files to a windows machine?
[02:25] <Jasnation> okay
[02:25] <kahrytan> Jasnation, It'll be like /dev/media/???
[02:25] <Muelli> keen: isn't it just about right clicknig a folder and selecting "share" or the like?
[02:25] <tag> If I have a dual screen and it shows up as two workspaces - how can I fix that so they're like a single continuous workspace?
[02:25] <ycmarvin> it seems unusual that there is nothing solid i can find when i google 'uninstall ubuntu'
[02:25] <keen> meulli, hehe ya, i guess i worded it wrong
[02:26] <Muelli> Jasnation, kahrytan: You can execute files with wine "C:\program files\foo\bar.exe" works pretty well..
[02:26] <keen> muelli, i have an hd shared on my windows machine, i can see it in linux and browse it (very slowly) but would like to copy files to it and am having problems
[02:26] <bruenig> ycmarvin, you don't really uninstall an operating system, you just install another one
[02:26] <kahrytan> Muelli, but thats not a linux path
[02:26] <Muelli> kahrytan: so what?
[02:27] <Timbooooo> when i run the live cd i get a message "there was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon. theme,s sounds, or background settings may not work correctly" "Gnome will still try to resrt the setting daemon next time you log in"
[02:27] <Muelli> kahrytan: wine is smart enough
[02:27] <Muelli> keen: what problems?
[02:27] <ycmarvin> ok thanks bruenig
[02:28] <jrib> felipe: that's strange, but glad it's working now
[02:28] <keen> muelli, well when i try to copy more than 1 file it errors out saying i can't copy and when i do copy 1 file at a time it will start to copy, but fail it the file is too large
[02:28] <Jasnation> I have  wine /home/justin/.wine/drive_c/BC7/BIN/QBX.exe  but nothing comes up
[02:28] <keen> muelli, Error "Invalid parameters" while copying "/media/sda2...h Hunt.avi". is the error i get
[02:28] <Muelli> keen: hm. maybe stupidquestion, but is the target disk full? Or is your file, you try to copy, larger than 2GB?
[02:29] <Muelli> which target OS is that keen?
[02:29] <Soroosh> Hi! My computer just crashed (stupid Skype), and now after reboot I can't find my ethernet card anymore. My network is a VIA VT86C100
[02:29] <keen> muelli, not full and the file is 217 meg
[02:29] <keen> meulli, the target OS is windows vista business 32bit
[02:29] <Soroosh> when I run "modprobe via-rhine", I get "Invalid MAC address" error.
[02:30] <Muelli> keen: I remeber some issues with samba and latest windows machines. But it might be solved now. (again: I don't really have a clue)
[02:30] <keen> muelli, well thanks for trying, its just a pain to grab my thumb drive to trasfer files...
[02:31] <shira> why does my /etc/inetd.conf not exist?
[02:31] <m55> how can i use lpr to set the printing quality?
[02:31] <serenityUK> keen: can you download large files from the net or is it just local problems?
[02:31] <m55> (w/ cups)
[02:32] <Muelli> keen: there are several samba implementations out there. just google for samba + FUSE and see what it spits out. And to emphasize: M$ is to blame, not Ubuntu... With their fsck()ing protocol. You might want to use another file sharing protocl anyway...
[02:32] <keen> serenityuk, its just a local problem, on my home network, i can do this fine on my work network...those i am copying to macs there
[02:32] <keen> muelli, thanks for your help =)
[02:32] <Muelli> m55: usually, you give option with -o someoption. Dunno whether it helps you :-\ You might want to look up some cups or printer docs..
[02:32] <shira> Hi, I'm trying to secure my system by closing some ports, but my /etc/inetd.conf doesn't exist. it is suppose to be like this?
[02:33] <m55> muelli: I did, i couldn't find it
[02:33] <serenityUK> shira: there are no ports open on default ubuntu install
[02:33] <Muelli> shira: well. If you haven't installed an inet.d than there is no reason for one to exist :)
[02:33] <shira> serenityUK: ok well the problem is, apparently my system was compormised
[02:34] <fujin_> shira, generally, netkit-inetd isn't installed either
[02:34] <shira> through port 22/tcp (ssh) and 631/tcp (ipp)
[02:34] <shira> at least that's what the sys admin said.
[02:34] <Muelli> m55: it might be a postscript option anyway. So maybe you have to give proper options while creating that file you are about to print (just a rough guesS)
[02:35] <corpcomp> I have setup a user "useradd -p crypt1c -m username.  I have gone to login via ssh and it fails.  What have I done wrong.
[02:35] <Muelli> shira: pretty unlikely acutally. Thats ssh and cups. Both rather secure ;-)
[02:35] <blackenedESP> I'm trying to get my surround speakers to work.  When I go to the SOUND DEVICES and choose MULTICHANNEL PLAYBACK then hit TEST, sound comes from all of them.  But when I go to play a .mp3 file, I only get sound from the front 2.
[02:35] <macd> corpcomp, did you create a password for the user?
[02:35] <shira> Muelli: well, they closed my port (im in a university) =(
[02:35] <corpcomp> macd -p crypt1c
[02:35] <Muelli> shira: if you want to shut you ssh deamon down (do you?) then you should remove /etc/rc*.d/*ssh. Same for cups
[02:36] <shira> Muelli: thanks, i'll do that
[02:36] <Muelli> well shira. I suppose your admins have no clue at all. How do they think your machine has been compromised? Throguh ssh?!
[02:36] <jrib> corpcomp: why didn't you use 'adduser'?
[02:36] <pie-rate> how big should a / partition be for ubuntu if /home is on a separate partition?
[02:36] <macd> corpcomp, and ssh dis running? and the user has a proper shell in /etc/shadow? as well as a home directory which they own?
[02:36] <Muelli> shira: I suppose they have never heard about linux before...
[02:36] <blackenedESP> anybody?
[02:36] <macd> jrib, I think adduser is nice, but doesnt it limit you to 2 or 3 accounts
[02:36] <shira> Muelli: shall I post their email msg?
[02:36] <kitche> Muelli, ssh gets broken into all the time but most of the time it's due to a dumb username/password
[02:37] <jrib> macd: no
[02:37] <bird_> hi
[02:37] <shira> yeah that's what they told me, a weak password, though my password is pretty strong
[02:37] <corpcomp> jrib: have a look at the post.   I have setup a user "useradd -p crypt1c -m username.
[02:37] <Muelli> well shira. If you don't mind :) But use pastebin.ca or the like
[02:37] <macd> jrib, adduser: Only one or two names allowed.
[02:37] <macd> funny it tells me that
[02:37] <shira> they state: The following system appears to have been compromised
[02:37] <shira> and is being remote-controlled via IRC for the purpose
[02:37] <shira> of distributed scanning of other vulnerable hosts:
[02:37] <shira> ; ATTACK VECTOR LIKELY WEAK SSH ACCOUNT PASSWORD
[02:37] <bird_>  hi, I have installed ubuntu, and I can play multiple sounds at he same time, my sound card can not do hardware mixing, so it must to use some software mixing program, my question is : where is the asoundrc file because it's not in my home dir.  or in the /etc  folder
[02:37] <serenityUK> ie-rate: 5gb fine for normal 10gb for pwer user who compiles kernel etc need temp space
[02:37] <bird_> how can I stop the software mixing ?
[02:38] <jrib> !enter | shira
[02:38] <ubotu> shira: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:38] <Metal03> I have a problem...  I'm trying to follow a guide and typed "sudo chown -R root:root *" but now everything is owned by root...  What do I do
[02:38] <jrib> macd: erm, what do you do for it to say that?
[02:38] <macd> maybe my adduser is broken
[02:38] <Muelli> kitche: well, i'd not say "all the time", but yes, thats a point...
[02:38] <macd> sudo adduser foo
[02:38] <tehk> anyone know how to find a eys number for xmodmap
[02:39] <corpcomp> macd: do I have to setup any shell for a user to have ssh/ftp access?
[02:39] <kitche> Muelli, pretty much all the time or it just kills the sshd which I see happen regularly on my VPS when I ran one
[02:39] <jrib> corpcomp: yes, I saw that.  Does your user have a home directory?
[02:39] <Muelli> well shira. funny. why do they think, your machine has been compromised? Did they log any suspicious activity?
[02:39] <macd> it works about 2 or 3 times on a fresh install then always gives that message
[02:39] <serenityUK> teck xev
[02:39] <Random832> yay - i managed to port LinPopUp to gtk 2
[02:39] <shira> Muelli: here is the rest of the email: http://pastebin.org/1774
[02:39] <macd> corpcomp, the user needs a shell to login with ssh
[02:39] <_mad> theres a wine channel?
[02:39] <corpcomp> jrib: yes, it was created when I created the account
[02:39] <Metal03> _mad: #winehq
[02:39] <serenityUK> tehk: xev
[02:39] <keen> i downloaded the essentials codec pack, what do i do with it so mplayer can use it
[02:39] <_mad> thx
[02:39] <macd>  /bin/bash or something, you can test that on another account by changing a user to /bin/false or something similar
[02:39] <Muelli> kitche: how do you the username anyway?
[02:39] <tehk> serenityUK, k ty
[02:40] <Aminux> hi
[02:40] <kitche> Muelli, usually they leave the username blank or use some common idiot usernames
[02:40] <Timbooooo> got a problem, when i run the live cd i get a message "there was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon. theme,s sounds, or background settings may not work correctly" "Gnome will still try to resrt the setting daemon next time you log in"
[02:40] <Timbooooo> it is just sitting at the screen now

[02:41] <bruenig> !alternate | Timbooooo
[02:41] <ubotu> Timbooooo: 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
[02:41] <jrib> corpcomp: oh, that's the -m.  Never mind then.  ssh as some other user works ok?
[02:41] <kitche> shira, by chance they might not allow irc connections
[02:42] <shira> kitche: never used irc while I was here. I'm logging in using a different system
[02:42] <Timbooooo> bruenig can i not run live cd?
[02:42] <Ax3> hey, how do I mount a .bin/.cue file?
[02:42] <bruenig> Timbooooo, if you want to install use the alternate cd
[02:42] <Muelli> kitche: that's bullshit. You actually can't leave the username empty. And I consider guessing the right one rather hard.. Which doesn't mean that it's not possible though...
[02:42] <kitche> Muelli, umm you never looked at a bruteforce log have you I have
[02:43] <Don64> !ohmy | Muelli
[02:43] <ubotu> Muelli: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:43] <mike6546> anyone know how to get CS:S working with WINE ?
[02:43] <Timbooooo> bruenig i want to use live cd to try it out.. will the alt cd work for that?
[02:43] <bruenig> Timbooooo, no
[02:43] <jrib> corpcomp: I think I see the issue, read the entry for the -p switch in useradd's manpage
[02:43] <Timbooooo> k :\
[02:43] <Muelli> shira: Funny.. Still, one doesn't know, why they think, that your machine has been compromised... I'd go there and ask :o)
[02:43] <serenityUK> Timbooooo: you could try running live cd in safe graphics mode?
[02:44] <Aminux> how can i define resolution and refresh rate on ubuntu,im trying to use a resolution of 1280x1024 60hz but the refresh rate is only 47hz
[02:44] <macd>  -p expects later password input
[02:44] <Timbooooo> serenityUK i tried, it gave me an error with x server or something
[02:44] <macd> ohh nvm
[02:44] <macd> heb it just disabled the account by doing that
[02:44] <Muelli> Aminux: give xrandr a try
[02:44] <serenityUK> Timbooooo: ok alternate is text mode installer only
[02:45] <Timbooooo> serenityUK k ill give it a try
[02:47] <SineFato> I'm trying to log into my linux box thru windows and it asks fro the username and password but when I put it in, it rejects it
[02:47] <shira> Muelli: thanks. I suppose that's all I can do.
[02:48] <Aminux> Muelli: what exactly is xrandr ?
[02:48] <Asuka> i crashed and burned
[02:48] <pie-rate> is there a reason ubuntu uses a logical partition for swap by default?
[02:48] <rachel_> dbx
[02:48] <jrib> macd: right, -p expects the password to be returned by crypt
[02:48] <rachel_> hello guys
[02:48] <rachel_> i need help real fast
[02:49] <Asuka> Okay, I went into Terminal, typed sudo nano /ect/x11/xorg.conf
[02:49] <Aminux> i cant change my refresh rate
[02:49] <rachel_> on one login, my laptop detects the sound card, when i switch users it says it cant find the sound device? any ideas??
[02:49] <Don64> !xrandr | Aminux
[02:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xrandr - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:49] <ycmarvin> is there a way to recover cmos/bios password using ubuntu?
[02:49] <Asuka> and all it did was open up this box thing with options on the bottom
[02:49] <Aminux> i use 1280x768 47hz
[02:49] <Aminux> but the refresh rate is wrong
[02:49] <Jack_Sparrow> ycmarvin: no
[02:49] <Aminux> how can i change this
[02:49] <Asuka> so, i'm trying to figure out how to make my resolution 1440 of 900

[02:51] <KevinOman> duhhh uhuhuhuhuhhuh
[02:51] <KevinOman> huhuh
[02:51] <Jack_Sparrow> rachel_: There is a situation where only one device can be using it at a time.  Not sure if one user using it then switching users is the same situation
[02:51] <KevinOman> huh
[02:51] <KevinOman> :)
[02:52] <Jack_Sparrow> KevinOman: Behave
[02:52] <pteague> any idea why i would get "md0: raid array is not clean -- starting background reconstruction" on boot right after installation?

[02:53] <KevinOman> does anyone know why I might be getting this error? exec: 15: /sbin/ldconfig.real: not found
[02:53] <ycmarvin> is there a way to dual-boot ubuntu and fedora
[02:53] <felipe_> vlc player isnt working... it is not playing the images, only sound.
[02:53] <jeffreyf> anyone know how to install World of Warcraft under WINE?
[02:53] <bruenig> KevinOman, I don't suppose you have checked to see if /sbin/ldconfig.real is there have you?
[02:53] <Jack_Sparrow> ycmarvin: yes...you can...
[02:54] <bruenig> I know its difficult to conceive of such brilliant troubleshooting tips, but you might
[02:54] <Frogzoo> !appdb | jeffreyf look here for help installing wine apps:
[02:54] <ubotu> jeffreyf look here for help installing wine apps:: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org

[03:03] <SkareCrow> I like to just idle and ask questions once in a while.
[03:03] <KevinOman> what's the channel for gutsy?
[03:03] <Stoffer> Jack_Sparrow, I pronounce it Linn (like sin) uhx (like books)
[03:03] <jrib> KevinOman: #ubuntu+1
[03:03] <mneptok> KevinOman: #ubuntu+1
[03:03] <KevinOman> thankyou jrib
[03:03] <KevinOman> mneptok: ty
[03:04] <Stoffer> Random832, thanks
[03:04] <left1> I am having a problem accessing a certain folder on my mounted NTFS partition? Anyone know what I should do?
[03:04] <anandanbu> Pelo: Look out for "LinuxWorld Awards Go to Ubuntu 7.08, EnterpriseDB, and Unicon" they have said Ubuntu 7.08
[03:04] <felipe_> jrib: both worked!!! thx dude!!! would you mind to explain the difference between them?
[03:04] <jrib> felipe_: xv is better
[03:04] <Pelo> anandanbu,  someone made a typo,  the next version of ubuntu is  Gutsy Gibbon 7.10 it is currently in alpha , herd 5 I think ,  you can ask about it in #ubuntu+1
[03:04] <felipe_> but why xv is better???
[03:05] <anandanbu> Pelo: Thanks for the info
[03:05] <Pelo> anandanbu,  and the next one will be  Hardy Herron 8.04
[03:05] <jrib> Pelo: it's tribes instead of herds this time
[03:05] <Pelo> jrib, thanks I thought it didn't sound right
[03:05] <left1> "the folder contents cannot be displayed"??
[03:06] <anandanbu> Pelo: ok
[03:06] <felipe_> jrib:but why xv is better???
[03:07] <jrib> felipe_: it uses your video card to render the video (you'll probably have to google for a more technical explanation).  But practically, xv will let you go to fullscreen and your movie will scale while having good performance
[03:08] <KurtKraut> hm
[03:08] <jacob> what does the tar command does, anybody?
[03:08] <evillord> hi
[03:08] <AndrewB> jacob: man tar
[03:09] <jacob> no man please, i need a quick answer
[03:09] <felipe_> jrib: cool!!! so it is directly rendered by my video card???? cool!!!
[03:09] <MindfulGeek> It creates archives

[03:10] <serenityUK> Jack_Sparrow: short   like  bin or  sin
[03:10] <FreeDownload> http://www.frikipedia.es/images/a/a7/CTRLALTSUP.jpg  <<< AHORA EN USB!

[03:11] <Jack_Sparrow> serenityUK: thanks... either way I just glad people are using it..
[03:12] <Pelo> nn-gentoo,  which ever distro  big computer makers/sellers chose to pre-install gives hardware makers a good incentive to produce linux drivers , which is the major point
[03:12] <stefano> Is there a way to make the menus transparent?
[03:13] <Pelo> stefano, probably with compiz-fusion
[03:13] <Grungebunny> stefano if you find out let me know
[03:13] <stefano> how do i get to the config for it? I remember there was a GUI to configure it.
[03:13] <stefano> Grungebunny, alright.
[03:13] <Pelo> stefano, ask in #ubuntu-effects they probably know
[03:14] <mneptok> stefano: sudo apt-get install gnome-compiz-manager
[03:14] <nichos> hi all, i seem to have lost all my window decorations. beryl is up and running fine, but no window decorations since rebooting - where to start?
[03:14] <serenityUK> stefano: you install compizconfig-settings-manager then its in the menu System->Prefs
[03:14] <stefano> mneptok, thanks.
[03:14] <Netham45> I want to forward ports 22 and 80 from 192.168.0.104(Ubuntu PC) to 192.168.0.105(Internal HTTP server), how would I do that?
[03:14] <h1st0> nichos: do you have emerald installed?
[03:14] <mneptok> nichos: get a replacment manager that plays well with Beryl. Metacity does not
[03:14] <stefano> serenityUK, ill try your way... see what happens.
[03:14] <Pelo> nichos,  the ppl in #beryl can probably answer if no one here can
[03:15] <h1st0> nichos: also support for 3d desktops is in #ubuntu-effects
[03:15] <h1st0> nichos: just a tip try hitting alt +f2 and typing in emerald --replace
[03:15] <macd> nichos, start a console type 'emerald --replace'
[03:15] <macd> heh
[03:15] <nichos> that did it!
[03:15] <nichos> thanks all!
[03:15] <serenityUK> nichos: you need it to happen when you start each time..
[03:16] <serenityUK> nichos goto System->Prefs->Sessions and add it as startup program after beryl-manager
[03:16] <macd> serenityUK, they are already gone

[03:18] <wracko> hi everyone. i'm with a mouse problem.
[03:19] <Pelo> wracko,  details please
[03:19] <wracko> my microsoft usb mouse is incredibly slow
[03:19] <wracko> in ubuntu, fedora7 and foresight
[03:19] <neozen> foresight? O.o
[03:19] <neozen> nice
[03:19] <neozen> how's that working out for you?
[03:19] <wracko> but in kurumin6 (brazilian knoppix based) and in the windows, the mouse works  perfecr
[03:19] <wracko> *perfect
[03:19] <Pelo> wracko,  menu > system > prefs > mouse , you can set speed there,  if not look up the model of the mouse in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[03:20] <wracko> everything, except the mouse, is o.k.
[03:20] <stefano> What is button 3 in compiz terms?
[03:20] <wracko> Pelo: i tried thied   menu > system > prefs > mouse , but nothing
[03:20] <Pelo> wracko,  the forum then
[03:20] <wracko> i tried the forum
[03:20] <wracko> changing the protocol to evdev
[03:20] <left1> I am having a problem accessing a certain folder on my mounted NTFS partition? unable to display folder contents? Anyone know what that means?
[03:21] <tophergilbert> Have you tried other USB ports?
[03:21] <forgetso> ok... i have just switched to ubuntu and i installed the 64-bit feisty fawn version on my amd athlon 64 , kv-8 pro MB computer.  i tried installing wine with get-apt and then with source.  both times i ran it, the program froze and i had to restart the comp.  so i thot, y not just use 32-bit ubuntu. so i installed 32-bit ubuntu and installed wine the easier way (through add/remove programs). again it stalled the computer
[03:21] <forgetso>  and i had to restart.  something is very much wrong. sorry for length of this...
[03:21] <wracko> no, i didn't tried other usb port. good point.
[03:21] <wracko> next time i will restart with the live cd i will try this
[03:21] <wracko> and this next time will be this night
[03:22] <wracko> and in the fedora forums
[03:22] <Pelo> forgetso,  go to the winehq.org site follow the links to dl the latest ubuntu version,  about half way down the insctructions page there are special instructions for hte 64 bit versiion
[03:22] <forgetso> i have done that already pelo
[03:22] <forgetso> it stalled on startup
[03:22] <forgetso> and i now have 32-bit ubuntu anyway
[03:22] <wracko> they say some gnu/linux don't like 5v usb mouse
[03:23] <Pelo> forgetso,  before you start a prog with wine , did you   do winecfg to set the various options ?
[03:23] <forgetso> winecfg also stalls the computer
[03:23] <serenityUK> i have microsoft 5button but it's wireless
[03:23] <DeaTH-mATCH> hello ! i need help! i can't install my Ati X2000 :S
[03:23] <Rabbitbunny> I've just gotten a new (to me) Dell D1526TX-HS monitor, I reconfigured xserver to use it yet the display still loops off the screen. Hints?
[03:23] <forgetso> actually ill try that just now
[03:24] <forgetso> coz i dont think i tried it with 32 bit altho i def did it with 64
[03:24] <Pelo> forgetso, I don'T know then , I think you'll hve to ask in #winehq,  you might have to use some patience
[03:24] <DeaTH-mATCH> not bad the new song of santana and nickelback ;)
[03:24] <DeaTH-mATCH> :P
[03:25] <wracko> ok, i will try changing the usb port
[03:25] <wracko> thanks

[03:27] <forgetso> #winehq
[03:27] <Pelo> m0u5e, linux in general does I think , you'll probably have to lookup a specific model in the forum or online
[03:27] <m0u5e> Pelo: alright, thx

[03:28] <Pelo> m0u5e, you might try here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:28] <Pelo> forgetso, ...
[03:28] <|gnurph|> can somebody point me in the right direction here?  my wireless card works on my lappie...but I have to fiddle with it every time before it authenticates to my access point.
[03:29] <m0u5e> Pelo: thx :D
[03:29] <m0u5e> Pelo: just got my new laptop... have to say though, vista aero lags
[03:29] <stefano> serenityUK, How do i make the settings i modified be applied??? I change something and it doesn't work.
[03:29] <m0u5e> Pelo: compiz-fusion is faster lol
[03:29] <forgetso> yes?
[03:29] <Pelo> m0u5e,  also requres less resources
[03:30] <mneptok> "fewer" ;)
[03:30] <Pelo> forgetso,  if you want to join another channel  you need to type /join #channelname or  /j #channelname
[03:30] <Aminux> anyone use a LG 710s monitor?
[03:30] <Pelo> mneptok, sorry the "sarah-jane smith" episodes were a few weeks ago
[03:30] <serenityUK> stefano: are you sure you installed full compiz fusion or just old compiz?
[03:31] <yurimxpxman> how can I setup my own bittorrent tracker?
[03:31] <Aminux> i cant get a decent resolution on my monitor
[03:31] <stefano> serenityUK, i have Gutsy, it came with it. All the other repositories related to compiz are installed.
[03:31] <Aminux> damn
[03:31] <forgetso> oh yeh, sorry i got that
[03:31] <Pelo> Aminux, what video card ?
[03:31] <Aminux> ati 9600
[03:32] <serenityUK> stefano: ok have you set up the 3D drivers?
[03:32] <m0u5e> Pelo: word
[03:32] <Pelo> Aminux, I think there is a special way of adding resolutions with ati card but I am not an expert, you can start by adding extra rex manualy to the xorg.conf file , see if that does it
[03:32] <Pelo> m0u5e, ?
[03:32] <Aminux> extra what
[03:32] <Pelo> Aminux, extra resolutions
[03:33] <Aminux> i did
[03:33] <_2_> why doesn't   "ListenAddress 192.168.0.0/16"  work in the "sshd.conf" ?    i have to list every address specifically...   ?
[03:33] <stefano> serenityUK, yes.. The problem is that if i enable a plugin or change some keys, i don't know when or how to apply them.
[03:33] <|gnurph|> wireless?  any wireless.gurus out there?  even wireless.amateurs?
[03:33] <Aminux> the problem is that i am getting bad refresh rates
[03:33] <stefano> There is no, "Apply" button.
[03:33] <mon^rch> if i reinstall ubuntu can bittorrent resume a download i started from a previous install?
[03:33] <Zylogue> greetings, everyone.  I'm having a bit of difficulty with bind9.3.2 not resolving short names.  It will resolve fqdn on the internal network, but not the short or system name.  any suggestions?
[03:33] <Aminux> and it must be because the monitor settings
[03:33] <realnewguy> wtf man, this beryl is just not working :S ive installed it but absolutly nothing is happening??
[03:34] <serenityUK> stefano: it happens straight away..... when you enable 3D drivers you should notice the shadows and window effects already without the config
[03:34] <m0u5e> Pelo: err to what you said before (compiz-fusion uses less resources)
[03:34] <Pelo> Aminux,  check the label on the back of your monitor ,  you can edit xorg.conf and change the Horizsyng and vertrez  values to match
[03:34] <Aminux> lets see
[03:34] <Pelo> m0u5e, oh, yes sorry,  busy channel,  ( busy helper actualy)  and I'm not up on american slang
[03:34] <tigran> hey, fonts in openoffice.org word are horrible, i can see a topic on it in the bug database, but I was just wondering if someones had this issue and managed to fix it
[03:34] <serenityUK> stefano: wobble isn't on by default but as soon as GL is set up the shadows appear and windows fade etc
[03:34] <mneptok> Aminux: or run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:35] <m0u5e> Pelo: i just mean, (i agree whole heartedly)
[03:35] <m0u5e> Pelo lol
[03:35] <stefano> serenityUK, yes i see the shadows and all the default plugins enabled. What i want is to change something, like a key comb for some effect, but don't know how to apply it.
[03:35] <Pelo> mneptok, that would defeat the purpose it would restore defaults
[03:35] <Pelo> m0u5e,  I figured it out eventualy
[03:35] <mneptok> Pelo: what defaults?
[03:36] <serenityUK> stefano: as I say it normally happens as soon as you pick... can you turn the cube on.. there are two rotate cube and cube 3D
[03:36] <Binlafy> heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp
[03:36] <Binlafy> i ve prop
[03:36] <mneptok> Pelo: reconfigure allows you to choose driver, monitor geometry, and resolutions.
[03:36] <Frogzoo> anyone know how to insist ether packets use SNAP?
[03:36] <Pelo> mneptok, fine, take over
[03:36] <tigran> fonts in openoffice.org word are horrible, i can see a topic on it in the bug database, but I was just wondering if someones had this issue and managed to fix it
[03:36] <Binlafy> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[03:37] <mneptok> Pelo: i was just offering an alternate solution.
[03:37] <stefano> serenityUK, lol... well its ok. I am sure that after i restart the settings will be applied. lol and i thought there was no reason at all to restart linux.
[03:37] <Binlafy> can any body tel me what is this prop          E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[03:37] <Pelo> Binlafy, then open a terminal and type   sudo dpkg --configure -a
[03:37] <pteague> !helpme | Binlafy
[03:37] <ubotu> Binlafy: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:37] <Binlafy> I did it but dosent work
[03:37] <Aminux> all i see there is 50hz 60hz on the back of the monitor
[03:37] <pteague> oh, nm
[03:38] <tigran> fonts in openoffice.org word are horrible, i can see a topic on it in the bug database, but I was just wondering if someones had this issue and managed to fix it
[03:38] <Pelo> Aminux,  then ensure that the range of  both horiz sync and  vert res don'T go higher,  that should solve it
[03:38] <daprie> qq
[03:39] <serenityUK> Binlafy: did you use sudo?
[03:39] <Pelo> yes daprie ?
[03:39] <daprie> how do you boot directly to a command line and bypass the GUI altogether

[03:39] <Binlafy> but dosnt work
[03:39] <serenityUK> daprie: choose recovery mode from the grub menu
[03:39] <Pelo> daprie, you can boot the recovery mode,   or if you intend to run cli all the time , you can edit the menu.lst file to remove the gui option
[03:40] <daprie> btw pelo the alternate disk got the OS installed, but I still can't get that video card to work
[03:40] <Pelo> daprie,  menu > system  > admin > restricted modules

[03:46] <daprie> I hit Alt+F4... not sure what that is suppose to do but I got a prompt
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> Binlafy: what are you trying to compile?
[03:46] <mbt> serenityUK, Thank you so much -- I just need to change one line of source, but need to retain the exact config otherwise, for a piece of broken hardware.  I don't know how I didn't find that link already.

[03:48] <daprie> trying your previous suggestion now pelo (the sudo one)
[03:48] <Pelo> tigran,  in synaptic do a search for fonts,  there are others you can install
[03:48] <Pelo> daprie,  you'll need the command line , ei the recovery mode
[03:48] <tigran> i need Times New Roman
[03:49] <Pelo> daprie,  best of luck
[03:49] <tigran> Pelo: I need times new roman, school standard stuff
[03:49] <Snipe> Hello people

[03:49] <boontoo> damn i cant get my sound card to work anymore anyone know why? its just after i updated threw synaptics, just some librarys i think, can anyone help?
[03:49] <mneptok> tigran: is your TNR a TrueType font?
[03:49] <|gnurph|> still having strange wireless problems - it connects only after I turn the wireless NIC on and off.  any ideas?
[03:50] <tigran> Pelo: I've installed the ms core fonts, but they look choppy in openoffice.org word

[03:50] <Frogzoo> tigran: you enable sub pixedl rendering?
[03:50] <Zemus> Hey, is there a decent media player for linux / gnome that handles winamp 5 skins? ("why would you want one" is not an answer) Thanks! :)
[03:50] <Pelo> tigran,  menu > system > prefs > fonts >  subpixel
[03:50] <mneptok> Binlafy: stop pasting to the channel or you will be banned
[03:50] <nickrud> Binlafy: close synaptic first, you can only use one package manager at at time
[03:50] <Snipe> I'm tryng to install ubuntu and I have a question about partitioning, can someone help me?
[03:50] <_aaa> boontoo, I had to turn my volume up to 92%
[03:50] <tigran> Frogzoo: Yes, my fonts are fine in gnome, its just in openoffice.org that looks bad
[03:50] <Frogzoo> Binlafy: 1) don't paste - 2) you've another package manager open - like synaptic
[03:50] <CoasterMaster> Snipe: what is your question?
[03:51] <serenityUK> Zemus: xmms can do winamp skins so can beep media player
[03:51] <Frogzoo> tigran: enable sub pixedl rendering
[03:51] <Zemus> serenityUK, I think it can only do classic skins though, right? winamp 2 skins?
[03:51] <Pelo> tigran, check in the OOo options , under tools,  or try asking in #openoffice.org
[03:51] <Zemus> beep media player I will check out, thanks
[03:51] <Binlafy> I didnt open synpatic
[03:51] <boontoo> _aaa: well theres a Red x on my volume like its muted but when i try to double click it says "no volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found."
[03:51] <nickrud> tigran: what does the bug chatter say?
[03:51] <wolferine> Binlafy, when logged in as root, there is no need to put sudo at the beginning of a command
[03:51] <tigran> Frogzoo: subpixel rendering is enabled, like i said my fonts are fine, they're just bad in word
[03:51] <Snipe> I'm ready to install and I want to take my hdd and be able to do dual booting ....XP and Ub
[03:51] <Binlafy> and else I cant go in synpatic
[03:51] <mneptok> Zemus: uhhh  ....
[03:52] <CoasterMaster> Snipe: the easiest way to do this is to use Wubi
[03:52] <Pelo> Snipe,  do you already have xp installed ?
[03:52] <wolferine> Binlafy, i think your confused
[03:52] <tigran> I'll ask in #openoffice.org
[03:52] <mneptok> Zemus: you're right. "why would you want one" is a question, not an answer ;)
[03:52] <Snipe> wubi? can yo clarify
[03:52] <Zemus> mneptok, ;)
[03:52] <Binlafy> explane it
[03:52] <wolferine> Binlafy, explain what?
[03:52] <CoasterMaster> Snipe: Wubi is a windows based installer for Ubuntu that automatically sets up dual-booting
[03:52] <Snipe> yes I've been using XP since I got the laptop
[03:52] <Binlafy> confused
[03:52] <CoasterMaster> Snipe: but if you want a more traditional approach, we can help you here
[03:53] <ari_stress> morning all
[03:53] <wolferine> Binlafy, its in the dictionary, you can find that yourself
[03:53] <scipio_> Binlafy, if you decide to install something through command line you must close synaptic first.
[03:53] <_aaa> boontoo, click the red x and unmute, I'm not very smart...
[03:53] <danielronin> hello all :^). is there anyone here that can give me a hand installing another distro to an existing kubuntu install, and configuring GRUB to make the boot option?
[03:53] <Snipe> I'm on a friends pc talking to younow
[03:53] <mneptok> Zemus: have you tried some of the native players? Amarok? Rhythmbox? Banshee? Quod Libet?
[03:53] <Binlafy> I closed it
[03:53] <Pelo> Snipe,  I think you should just dl the live cd and proceed with that, the installation is very convivial , it will help you resize the windows partition and it will make a boot menu for you
[03:53] <Zemus> mneptok, sure, I just like my old skins ;)
[03:53] <boontoo> _aaa: cant unmute it, i also get an error audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing.
[03:53] <mneptok> Zemus: i ask because Winamp-like apps simply will not work for my music collection.
[03:53] <serenityUK> Binlafy: maybe it's because you are already root, try without sudo
[03:53] <CoasterMaster> Snipe: here is more information on wubi: http://wubi-installer.org/  (also, when you're talking to us, can you attach our username so our chat programs highlight the line?)
[03:54] <ari_stress> hello, is an intel duo core notebook 64bit system?
[03:54] <nickrud> danielronin: simply point the new distro at the partition that has kubuntu. What issues do you think you might have with grub?
[03:54] <Snipe> I bought the Official ubuntu book and I have an awesome dvd that came with i
[03:54] <Zemus> mneptok, really? That's interesting, I've been using it *very* comfortably for years, and I have about 8,300 mp3's.
[03:54] <SeveredCross> mneptok: What's so special about your collection?
[03:54] <Excalibas> Pelo, what would be the advantade of using wubi?
[03:54] <mneptok> Zemus: i have 40,000
[03:54] <Pelo> Snipe, I don'T know if that is the install dvd but if it is you can install from that also
[03:54] <danielronin> no i don't want to wipe kubuntu, i want to add a boot option
[03:54] <nickrud> danielronin: er, you replacing kbuntu or putting it next to
[03:54] <Zemus> mneptok, awesome, lets engage in oral s.... oh that's right. #ubuntu. xD Sorry!
[03:54] <h1st0> mneptok: well what do you use then?
[03:54] <Snipe> the problem is .....it shows an option in the book that is not available on the dvd
[03:54] <danielronin> i'm installing a live cd next to it
[03:54] <Binlafy> the prob is started  to download the dif for my modem from dell then I Install it but the termenal said need to c compiler
[03:54] <Snipe> lol, can you believe it
[03:55] <mneptok> Zemus: "I like you, but only as a friend etc etc etc"  ;)
[03:55] <Moniker42> how do i check if a specific port number is being used by anything?
[03:55] <Pelo> Excalibas, I didn't recommend the wubi but some ppl don'T have working cdrom so wubi is an option
[03:55] <|gnurph|> how do I access a Windows system drive with Ubuntu (lets not ask why, and "overwrite it with Ubuntu" isn't an option)
[03:55] <h1st0> Snipe: what option are you talking abut?
[03:55] <h1st0> Moniker42: netstat
[03:55] <mneptok> h1st0: Rhythmbox, like a good GNOME drone.
[03:55] <nickrud> danielronin: ok, just don't have the new partition write to the mbr. Then, base a stanza in kubuntu's menu.lst on the menu.lst the new distro creates.
[03:55] <Zemus> mneptok, ;) gyahahha
[03:55] <h1st0> mneptok: I'm a mindless gnome drone as well.
[03:55] <Zemus> mneptok, how's Canonical treating you these days?
[03:55] <Snipe> guided resize ide1
[03:55] <boontoo> anyone?
[03:55] <danielronin> ahhh, but the new distro uses lilo, therein lies the problem
[03:56] <h1st0> mneptok: Thinking bout checkout mpd though
[03:56] <edz> can someone help me install ati drivers for fiesty
[03:56] <Snipe> it has guided using entire disk
[03:56] <nickrud> danielronin: it's translatable. Key issue, no write to mbr
[03:56] <Pelo> boontoo,  when you don't get an answer restate your problem
[03:56] <Binlafy> the prob is started  to download the dif for my modem from dell then I Install it but the termenal said need to c compiler
[03:56] <mneptok> Zemus: somewhere between "like the demi-God i truly am" and "dirt." typical.
[03:56] <h1st0> !ati | edz

[03:56] <jrib> Pelo: not really :/
[03:56] <danielronin> if i manually make an entry in menu.lst, where do i have to point the it?
[03:56] <Zemus> mneptok, xD
[03:56] <_aaa> boontoo, I also had to reinstall from a CD again, but igo from KDE to Gnome back and forth once or twice a week just for the hell of it...
[03:56] <Pelo> daprie,  I donT' allow private msg please talk tome in the channel
[03:56] <Snipe> it shows 4 options in the book and only 3 show up
[03:57] <Binlafy> the prob is started  to download the dif for my modem from dell then I Install it but the termenal said need to c compiler
[03:57] <boontoo> Pelo: my sound used to work fine, but after ubuntu ran some automatic updates with synaptics my sound doesn't work, when i open up sound properties and try and test the alsamixer i get this error: audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing.
[03:57] <daprie> ok, I got recovery mode to work
[03:57] <nickrud> danielronin: you'd point the stanza at the kernel on the other partition. Look at the ones you already have.
[03:57] <Snipe> of course the one I need to use is the one that's missing
[03:57] <Pelo> Snipe,  step back to the desktop,   in system > admin> gnome partition editor , you can rezise yoru windows partition to make room to install ubuntu
[03:58] <nickrud> danielronin: do the install, don't write the mbr, and when you're done a lot of people here can help you translate lilo to grub
[03:58] <taime1> if i go from an nvidia nforce 2  to an nvidia geforce 7600, will i need to reconfigure x or install a new driver?
[03:58] <taime1> or should the existing proprietary driver communicate just fine?
[03:58] <Excalibas> Pelo, i like the idea of an install widouth CD, it is 3am in Portugal and I dont have blank CD at home you think there are any drawbacks on using wubi?
[03:58] <Pelo> boontoo,  search the first part fo the msg in the forum, ( I think it 's a bit too long,) or boot the previous kernel
[03:58] <Snipe> should I exit the install menu 1st????
[03:58] <Pelo> daprie,  do you need the command again ?
[03:58] <Binlafy> the prob is started  to download the dif for my modem from dell then I Install it but the termenal said need to c compiler
[03:58] <danielronin> nickrud: thanks :)
[03:58] <danielronin> one more questions though...
[03:59] <nickrud> one questions ?! ;)
[03:59] <danielronin> typo
[03:59] <Pelo> Excalibas,  I donT Know I've never used it ,  and I 've never recommended it, I have no idea why you keep asking me about it
[03:59] <Snipe> I have gnome part. manager opened
[03:59] <serenityUK> taime1: you may want to use the latest driver to get more frames per second but it should still work
[03:59] <danielronin> will i have to rename these other partitions, or can i have multiple /, usr, home etc on the same drive?
[03:59] <danielronin> as long as the bootloader points to right one is that ok?
[04:00] <daprie> nah i got the command
[04:00] <taime1> serenityUK: i dont suppose a new driver has been released since a few months ago eh?
[04:00] <lerio> guys what is the stable version of ubuntu dapper or feisty
[04:00] <Pelo> Snipe,  select the hdd, select the partition,   right lick , resize, there is a slider , resize so you hvae enough room for ubuntu , validate and apply
[04:00] <Snipe> guys ......did I miss some info from you
[04:00] <CoasterMaster> liero: fiesty
[04:00] <Snipe> ok
[04:00] <nickrud> danielronin: as long as you leave any partitions that ubuntu is using alone, you can use any other partition in any way you like. They will be autonomus
[04:00] <nickrud> typo ;)
[04:00] <ziggy>  Whos Really good with Bery ????
[04:00] <Evanlec> liero, they both stable
[04:00] <daprie> should I have it automatically detect my video hardware?
[04:00] <CoasterMaster> liero: we'll technically they're both stable, but fiesty is the latest

[04:01] <ziggy> yes

[04:01] <daprie> it wants me to select "nv" as the X server driver, but I read in the forums that that doesn't work
[04:01] <nickrud> mherzogmtg: you don't need the binary, feisty comes with java.  sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre  sun-java6-plugin  . That will get you runtime and the firefox plugin
[04:02] <serenityUK> taime1: the legacy begin 1.0-96xx or similar
[04:02] <Pelo> daprie,  try vesa then
[04:02] <Excalibas> thanks

[04:03] <Snipe> thank you
[04:04] <taime1> i dont think im using the legacy driver
[04:04] <wolfsong> nickrud: it happens when gnome starts
[04:04] <banyunet> choyou

[04:05] <daprie> be back later if it doesn't work
[04:05] <wolfsong> compiz is giving lots of gtk-window-decorator warnings
[04:05] <darwin81> How can I change who gets access and right to modify a certain volume?
[04:05] <fale> what is the birthate of a high quality ogg vorbis?
[04:05] <Frogzoo> wolfsong: disable the show/hide buttons?
[04:06] <wolfsong> Frogzoo: how?
[04:06] <nickrud> wolfsong: ok, probably no window manager.  And, I know little about compiz-whatever; you should try asking on #ubuntu-effects or #compiz-fusion
[04:06] <yigal> wolfsong: why don't you go to #ubuntu-effects ?
[04:06] <Frogzoo> wolfsong: right click - properties
[04:06] <yigal> fale: the same as mp3
[04:07] <Zemus> From what I can tell, when I start beryl, I'm supposed to have a little red diamond in the system tray? I don't see it. I have the beryl settings manager open. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing?
[04:07] <Frogzoo> darwin81: ordinarily only root can change volume rights, you might want to take a look at acls, or just create a group to manage the volume
[04:07] <fale> yigal: 256?
[04:07] <yigal> fale: thats high but if you want it that high, ok
[04:07] <yigal> fale: what do you want it for :)
[04:08] <serenityUK> Zemus: do you have anything in the tray? network manager or updatemanager?
[04:08] <fale> yigal: I want have a very good quality of American Idiot
[04:08] <yigal> fale: 100 is enough
[04:08] <Zemus> serenityUK, sure, I have the network manager, xchat, pidgin, sound, and time.
[04:08] <fale> yigal: ok, thx 1000
[04:08] <Frogzoo> fale: if it's already mp3, nothing you can do will improve quality
[04:08] <darwin81> Frogzoo, Let a explain my situation. I have Ubuntu installed on a 15GB Hard Drive. I have a 160GB Hard Drive I want to mount as my home folder, but only root can access it and make folders and files in it.
[04:09] <yigal> fale: come on, thats going to be huge, but if you insist
[04:09] <fale> Frogzoo: no, I have the origina CD
[04:09] <Zemus> serenityUK, ...?
[04:09] <wolfsong> I'll try that nickrud, yigal, Frogzoo
[04:09] <jaime> I have downloaded totem player, but i cant play avi files, I know i need the codecs, but where do I get them?
[04:09] <Frogzoo> darwin81: ok, just mount the disk at /home
[04:09] <Zemus> jaime, it should give you a window offering to get them for you
[04:09] <nickrud> wolfsong: luck, I'd run it if I didn't have this crappy ati
[04:09] <yigal> does anyone know how to use gnuplot?
[04:09] <serenityUK> Zemus: possibly you launched the settings instead of manager?  close the window and type  beryl-manager
[04:09] <jaime> it doesn't for some reason
[04:09] <Zemus> jaime, you should be able to access the terminal and type "sudo apt-get install wm32codecs"
[04:10] <bruenig> !codecs | jaime
[04:10] <ubotu> jaime: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:10] <krammer> HI all of sudden I cannot connect to my router as well at my college any help
[04:10] <serenityUK> Zemus: i use compiz-fusion now it's all from memory
[04:10] <Zemus> serenityUK, ok, thanks. Do you know where I would access it from the application launcher?
[04:10] <jaime> is it wm32codecs
[04:10] <Zemus> serenityUK, cool, thanks
[04:10] <yigal> krammer: have you done a ping test?
[04:10] <Frogzoo> yigal: gnuplot is extensively documented
[04:10] <jaime> or win32codecs?
[04:10] <bruenig> Zemus, it is w32codecs, it isn't in the main repos, they are doubtfully even needed for his avi, I can't think of an avi combination that needs them
[04:10] <krammer> please help
[04:10] <Evanlec> Zemus, can also type beryl --replace i think
[04:10] <seraph> hi all
[04:10] <nickrud> jaime: check out the link bruenig gave you, there's a step in there yet
[04:10] <yigal> Frogzoo: yes, but trying to real time rotate a multiplot is not, and is rather challenging
[04:10] <macd> serenityUK, Zemus there is also the CompizFusion systray icon now.
[04:10] <seraph> does ubuntu 7.04 desktop edition come with a minimal install option? or does it just install the whole shebang regardless?
[04:11] <macd> seraph, if you want minimal install the server edition then pick what you want to install
[04:11] <nickrud> seraph: the live cd? the whole shebang
[04:11] <Evanlec> seraph, i think the alternate install CD is lighter
[04:11] <bruenig> seraph, number 2
[04:11] <Flannel> seraph: It just installs the whole shebang.  Get the alternate CD if you want choices
[04:11] <yigal> Frogzoo: it, only rotates the last graph, and forces, reishuing the gnuplot commands to redraw the total plot, I would prefer not to have to do this
[04:11] <seraph> ok thanks
[04:11] <serenityUK> Zemus: you have to set beryl-manager to run at startup  if that command works for you add it to System->Prefs->Sessions  startup programs
[04:11] <Jordan_U> !minimal | seraph
[04:11] <ubotu> seraph: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[04:11] <bruenig> the alternate cd is not lighter if you just go default
[04:11] <macd> yeah alternate cd works as well, sorry :)
[04:11] <Evanlec> but u can choose more options correct bruenig ?
[04:12] <serenityUK> macd: yes is saw there was competition for the new logo
[04:12] <Zemus> for some reason it says beryl-manager isn't installed. How odd.
[04:12] <tego> i have error in update it say i must run apt_get
[04:12] <yigal> Zemus: why aren't you using #ubuntu-effects?
[04:12] <Evanlec> macd, is server edition okay to use for regular desktop use?
[04:12] <randy026> how do you get compizconfig-settings-manager installed on feisty???
[04:12] <bruenig> tego, sudo apt-get install -f
[04:12] <Jordan_U> tego, What is the exact error?
[04:12] <randy026> is it not in the repos?
[04:12] <macd> Evanlec, you might have to isntall the -generic kernel, other than that I dont see a problem
[04:12] <Flannel> Evanlec: You should probably switch to the desktop kernel (actually, you should probably just install the desktop edition from the get go)
[04:12] <krammer> im getting 64 bytes from the ping
[04:13] <nickrud> randy026: no. Instructions in #compiz-fusion or #ubuntu-effects
[04:13] <Evanlec> whats the difference between the generic kernel and the server?
[04:13] <serenityUK> randy026: no it's in the gutsy repro in october feisty you need a 3rd party
[04:13] <randy026> Nickrud yeah I know I am on gutsy
[04:13] <Evanlec> i was wondering because i thot server edition might have RAID support built-in
[04:13] <randy026> I am trying to help someone on feisty
[04:13] <Flannel> Evanlec: server kernel has some tweaks for kernels.  Some HW compatability removed, and things like PREEMPT disabled.
[04:13] <nickrud> randy026: it's there then.
[04:13] <macd> but installing the server edition, then just install say gdm/kdm/xdm makes for a lighter install than the standard livecd or either
[04:13] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Most prominent is that server can use 4+ GIG even in 32 bit
[04:13] <randy026> I know!
[04:13] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, RAM that is
[04:14] <Evanlec> right...
[04:14] <Zemus> yigal, yeah, I didn't know about the channel, thanks though
[04:14] <jaime> is adept the new version of the older synaptic package manager?
[04:14] <Evanlec> does it have any hardware raid support?
[04:14] <nickrud> lol, sorry randy026 . But no backports for feisty, I guess
[04:14] <macd> Evanlec, of course
[04:14] <bruenig> macd, you don't need a login manager, those are the more needless of the bloat
[04:14] <Evanlec> oh? so it might work better with my hardware "soft-raid" motherboard ?
[04:14] <nickrud> jaime: no, it's a thing made for and by kde
[04:14] <randy026> thanks
[04:14] <macd> bruenig, yeah I really meant to type gnome/kde/xfce
[04:14] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Do you know the difference between Real hardware RIAD and soft-raid ?
[04:15] <krammer> Yigal: are you still here?
[04:15] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, yes
[04:15] <jaime> is it as good as synaptic nickrud?
[04:15] <yigal> krammer: sure
[04:15] <krammer> im getting 64 bytes from the ping test
[04:15] <yigal> krammer: how about you?
[04:15] <nickrud> jaime: just an alternate. Nothings better than synaptic, it's got aptitude ;)
[04:15] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, I have onboard raid support via bios, but i know that it isnt real hardware raid
[04:15] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, The latter is not supported nearly as well in Linux
[04:15] <yigal> krammer: how fast?
[04:15] <krammer> 1,32 ns'
[04:15] <krammer> ms
[04:15] <macd> Evanlec, if its in the bios chances are it is not softraiod
[04:16] <yigal> Karti: you have a very nice service, what are you using?
[04:16] <zippytech> i installed ubuntu and installed the firewall
[04:16] <macd> Its prolly your run of the mill Si3152 or something
[04:16] <zippytech> how do i reconfigure it
[04:16] <Evanlec> macd, I've tried to explain this to many people, hang on
[04:16] <jzero88> how do i show my processes?
[04:16] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, You may be able to get it to work but a pure software RAID might be easier
[04:16] <nickrud> jaime: but go ahead and try it, if you end up preferring it, it's better
[04:16] <macd> Evanlec, dont worry about it, its not that big of a deal really
[04:16] <Evanlec> yea, macd, its actually the intel software raid controller
[04:16] <bruenig> zippytech, the firewall is installed by default, what do you mean you installed it
[04:16] <yigal> krammer: you have a very nice service what are you using?
[04:16] <yigal> Karti: sorry, automatic name completion
[04:16] <jzero88> what is the command to show procceses?
[04:16] <macd> Evanlec, ahh I am familiar with that one, that raid is still transparent to the OS I believe
[04:16] <zippytech> ok there was an option to allow http ssh
[04:16] <krammer> what do you mean?
[04:16] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, if i didnt have windows installed i would gladly do a pure software raid
[04:17] <zippytech> now i need to add msql
[04:17] <Flannel> zippytech: http ssh?
[04:17] <yigal> krammer: you are communicating at a very high speed
[04:17] <serenityUK> jzero88: top or htop
[04:17] <jzero88> tanks
[04:17] <bruenig> new protocol?
[04:17] <krammer> comcast, im using a router
[04:17] <Flannel> bruenig: firewall, that was a list of stuff.
[04:17] <zippytech> port 3306
[04:17] <yigal> krammer 64bytes at 1ns - wow
[04:17] <yigal> yigal: what did you ping ?
[04:17] <serenityUK> jzero88: you can also use  top -u username
[04:17] <Evanlec> macd, all i know is ubuntu doesnt see the array correctly unless i install dmraid package, and even then its a PITA
[04:17] <yigal> krammer: what did you ping?
[04:17] <krammer> yes
[04:17] <zippytech> but i cannot find a config
[04:17] <Evanlec> i've just about given up on it
[04:17] <macd> Evanlec, makes total sense
[04:17] <Flannel> Evanlec: have you tried the alternate CD
[04:18] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, The LiveCD has absolutely no support for RAID
[04:18] <Evanlec> Flannel, no...
[04:18] <krammer> static ip
[04:18] <nickrud> zippytech: a config? you mean, what to install?
[04:18] <macd> You should use the server/alternate cd
[04:18] <Evanlec> Flannel, the alt cd have more raid options?
[04:18] <Flannel> Evanlec: yes
[04:18] <yigal> krammer: I want you to try and ping google, "ping www.google.com" and tell me the results
[04:18] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, The alternate *HAS* Raid options :)
[04:18] <bruenig> www. is redundant
[04:18] <Evanlec> thats exciting!
[04:18] <Evanlec> lol
[04:18] <nickrud> zippytech: install mysql-admin and mysql-browser, they are nice graphical frontends to mysql
[04:19] <Evanlec> so maybe i wont have to break my raid array after all
[04:19] <quasar88> Hello ALL
[04:19] <zippytech> i setup the unbuntu firewall on install now i need to mod the config to allow mysql 3306 port but i cannot find any firewall config files
[04:19] <Evanlec> its raid 0 btw
[04:19] <krammer> nothing yet
[04:19] <bruenig> not real raid
[04:19] <bruenig> zippytech, man iptables
[04:19] <Pelo> what's the command to get the ubuntu version ?
[04:19] <krammer> unknown host
[04:19] <nickrud> zippytech: ah. install firestarter, and use that front end to manipulate your firewalls
[04:19] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, The liveCD is for new users and hardware testing, IMHO the 'alternate' install CD is the real install CD
[04:19] <serenityUK> welcome quasar88
[04:19] <zippytech> cannot see where there are any rules but the ports are blocked
[04:19] <yigal> krammer: how are you on irc at #ubuntu?
[04:20] <krammer> dekstop
[04:20] <bruenig> !version
[04:20] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[04:20] <serenityUK> Pelo:  uname
[04:20] <krammer> this is for my laptop
[04:20] <quasar88> Has anyone used google earth w/ubuntu
[04:20] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, no kidding, well i have a 64-bit alternate install CD cuz the 64 Live CD would just hang
[04:20] <yigal> krammer: so you are only having problems with a wifi problem?
[04:20] <krammer> yes
[04:20] <Pelo> serenityUK,  no that is the kernel, I need to know the release
[04:20] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, but i havent tried it
[04:20] <macd> Evanlec, keep in mind 64bit has issues with proprietary gfx drivers and flash
[04:20] <yigal> krammer: you can ping the schools router at 1ns 64bytes etc.?
[04:21] <nickrud> zippytech: probably you have to tell mysql to listen to outside ports; the config is in /etc/mysql/my.conf,
[04:21] <yigal> krammer: with the wifi?
[04:21] <Evanlec> macd, i think 64-bit had issues with opensource ati drivers on my machine, video detection was very clunky
[04:21] <yigal> s/schools/school's
[04:21] <zippytech> ok thanks i will check
[04:21] <serenityUK> pelo sorry i thought you meant 32 or 64bit
[04:21] <krammer> i forget if it was 64 a friend tried to connect
[04:21] <nickrud> Pelo: lsb_release -a
[04:21] <Pelo> nickrud, thanks
[04:21] <macd> Evanlec, Im not even totally sure if ATI has 64bit drivers, I know NVIDIA does, but neigther are prepackaged via ubuntu
[04:21] <bruenig> ubotu said that a minute ago
[04:21] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, The open source ati drivers work great with 64 bit in my experience
[04:22] <krammer> but advised me to install kde but Id rather rectify this problem first
[04:22] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, It's the binary blobs that are the problem
[04:22] <nickrud> heh. fast channel, I don't even try to read every line anymore
[04:22] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, the 64-bit livecd wouldnt boot unless i went into safe graphics mode
[04:22] <Evanlec> but the 32-bit boots great with full resolution
[04:22] <yigal> krammer: if you can ping the router with the laptop quickly, and you can then it sounds to me either 1. a firewall on the laptop or 2. you no longer have the right essid and/or password.
[04:22] <Evanlec> i dont understand why they would have different opensource ati drivers
[04:22] <macd> Evanlec, 64 bit is really not for the desktop atm
[04:23] <m11> morning all
[04:23] <Evanlec> macd, im starting to realize that, and its a shame
[04:23] <krammer> no password needed
[04:23] <yigal> m11: good evening :)
[04:23] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, They don't really, I don't think there is much assembly in the open source drivers
[04:23] <m11> :)
[04:23] <macd> Evanlec, the performance differences are negligable (then again were getting offtopic now)
[04:23] <krammer> i am pinging the broadcast
[04:24] <quasar88>  Has anyone used google earth w/ubuntu ??
[04:24] <yigal> krammer: are you sure, if you can use internet/irc with the desktop then there has to be something stopping the connection, but your wifi is obviously working perfectly.  So there seems only 2 possibilities.
[04:24] <Evanlec> macd, yea, on paper the performance difference should be large, but with current software its not
[04:25] <zippytech> sweet that worked thanks!!!
[04:25] <Flannel> !googleearth | quasar88
[04:25] <ubotu> quasar88: Google Earth is now available, for free (only as in price), for Linux, too. To download it see http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html - A package for Ubuntu is available in the !Medibuntu repository
[04:25] <m11> i am having problem with creating ssl with apache2 on ubuntu, can someone help ?
[04:25] <nickrud> !tab | zippytech ;)
[04:25] <ubotu> zippytech ;): You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[04:25] <krammer> yes i configured the router for vnc and disabled the firewall\
[04:25] <Flannel> m11: What are you having trouble with?
[04:25] <yigal> krammer: what port are you connecting to the router on?
[04:25] <taggie> is there a channel specific to audio problems?
[04:25] <m11> flannel , i try issue this command but ubuntu dont accept it : sudo make-ssl-cert /usr/share/ssl-cert/ssleay.cnf /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem
[04:25] <krammer> 5900
[04:26] <nickrud> taggie: this is it, such as it is for that
[04:26] <quasar88> ubotu How do I get to the Medibuntu repository ?
[04:26] <m11> flannel , it gives output : make-ssl-cert: command not found
[04:26] <yigal> krammer: have you used it for another wireless setup before?
[04:26] <m11> flannel , i am sure i installed libapache-mod-ssl
[04:27] <krammer> yes
[04:27] <m11> flannel ; libapache-mod-ssl is already the newest version
[04:27] <taggie> nickrud, thx. I did the daring thing, and upgraded from a perfectly stable feisty to gutsy, and ever since i've had no audio (thinkpad t60p, intel HDA) unless i plug in a USB sound adapter. I haven't been able to find any indication why it doesn't work.
[04:27] <Flannel> m11: what version of ubuntu is this?
[04:27] <m11> 7.04
[04:27] <Flannel> !ru | spek
[04:27] <ubotu> spek:    #ubuntu-ru       /  Pozhalujsta vojdite v #ubuntu-ru dlq pomoshchi na russkom qzyke
[04:27] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, is it possible and/or faster to burn linux ISO's to DVD rather than CD?
[04:27] <krammer> it was even hard to connect to books of a million it took me almost an hour to connect
[04:27] <spek> !ru
[04:27] <taggie> nickrud, daring meaning "dumb" :)
[04:27] <spek> !
[04:27] <spek> ok
[04:27] <m11> flannel , ubuntu 7.04 server , updated and upgraded to latest
[04:27] <quasar88> Sorry but I have been ruined by *win and am trying to find my way in the new world
[04:27] <yigal> krammer: all ports are open, on both the router and laptop, and you are sure of this.
[04:28] <yigal> krammer: s/./?
[04:28] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, It's possible but I don't know about faster, if you are only going to install once go with the minimal CD since it grabs almost everything from the net as you install
[04:28] <Evanlec> krammer, try setting urself as dmz just to be 100% sure ;p
[04:28] <krammer> how do I do this?
[04:29] <jaime> im still trying to install the codecs for totem and it says I have to do it through the package manager
[04:29] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, but isnt that slower than having the data on the disc?
[04:29] <jaime> im trying to add a source
[04:29] <jaime> for third party
[04:29] <jaime> do i just put in the website address?
[04:29] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, I'm speaking of DVD's generally faster read speeds because of higher data density
[04:29] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Only if you already have the iso already downloaded
[04:29] <Evanlec> altho then again they dont spin as fast
[04:29] <edz> i just installed my ati drivers on ubuntu 7.4 and now my screen seems to be over lapping its windows and not showing all the information that should be on the screen
[04:30] <nickrud> taggie: I did the same, and I think I may even have the same chip: for me, adding    options snd-hda-intel model=3stack    made it work. There are various models, I think you can find the options on alsa-project.org
[04:30] <quasar88> apologies to all but I seem to be in the wrong place for absolute nubees
[04:30] <m11> edz , dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to fix resolution
[04:30] <Flannel> m11: make-ssl-cert is in the 'ssl-cert' package.  libapache-mod-ssl is for apache1, apache2 already includes the ssl module
[04:30] <yigal> krammer: are you using firestarter for your firewall?
[04:30] <nickrud> taggie: to a file in /etc/modprobe.d/
[04:30] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Unless you have a faster connection then I have ever seen, or the slowest CD drive, your bottleneck is downloading not reading / writing to CD
[04:30] <Evanlec> true
[04:30] <Evanlec> which is why im downloading the full iso
[04:31] <m11> ty flannel , i will check
[04:31] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, So if you can download and install at the same time you save time
[04:31] <krammer> i just started the program
[04:31] <quasar88> can anyone suggest a place where I can chat with complete dummies like me ?
[04:31] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Unless you want to install on more than one machine
[04:31] <Evanlec> well, i understand, but i will be installing this more than once
[04:31] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, ;)
[04:31] <krammer> no
[04:31] <Evanlec> new vid card comes tomorrow i probably re-install then ;p
[04:31] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Why?
[04:32] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, just to be safe? its nvidia and i have ati
[04:32] <zabin> hey
[04:32] <taggie> nickrud, i don't see any reference to snd-hda-intel in my modprobe dir at all, maybe that's my issue.
[04:32] <m11> flannel, many thanks m8 :)
[04:32] <yigal> krammer: I have had problems before with firestarter.  It will say that I have killed it and it is off but it is still working, this is funny but try removing it for a little while - if you can without worry too much about security
[04:32] <thejoe> hello, just installed ubuntu & everything works.   however, the screen appears "stretched"....any suggestions?   i am running a radeon 9500
[04:32] <Flannel> m11: No problem
[04:32] <nickrud> !medibuntu | quasar88: no, you probably just got lost in the chatter.
[04:32] <ubotu> quasar88: no, you probably just got lost in the chatter.: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[04:32] <zabin> where are the wireless network keys  and wireless networks that i have connected to saved?
[04:32] <Evanlec> thejoe, http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20070903#feature
[04:32] <zabin> there is a file the network manager uses to keep track of that does anyone know where that is?
[04:32] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Not a problem, just install the nvidia drivers, if you had a hotpluggable card you could do it without even rebooting :)
[04:32] <krammer> uninstall ?
[04:33] <nickrud> taggie: when the kernel went from 15 to 16, I ended up copying the kernel module over to keep sound. Whatever works, I always say
[04:33] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, really? it wont affect the kernel or anything? what about xorg?
[04:33] <yookoala> hello
[04:33] <taggie> nuckrud, any way to reload that without reboot?
[04:33] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Nope, install driver, reconfigure xorg.conf, restart X and you are done
[04:33] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, i was under the impression that when u changed hardware u had to recompile kernel or reinstall
[04:33] <yookoala> I'm installing vsftpd by compilation. But there is some prob. Can anyone here help?
[04:34] <krammer> how can I remove firestarter?
[04:34] <taggie> just modprobe snd-hda-intel
[04:34] <nickrud> taggie: modprobe -r first, to remove it
[04:34] <nickrud> taggie: and hope nothing else is holding it
[04:34] <quasar88> THX , niters w/ peace & blessings
[04:34] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, but since this is a vid card that is not so?
[04:35] <Flannel> yookoala: Why you compiling it?
[04:35] <taggie> nickrud: not so lucky, looks like reboot time. if I don't catch you later, thanks for the assist, #ubuntu scores again.
[04:35] <booster_> hello everyone.....can anyone in here tell me if beryl needs a higher graphics card to run???
[04:35] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, *NIX is very modular, I have taken a full install on one machine, swapped the HD to another completely different one and after reconfiguring X everything else just worked ( almost everything is configured at boot )
[04:35] <nickrud> taggie: hope it works, and don't forget the different model options
[04:35] <taggie> yep, i'll try those next
[04:35] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, no kidding, that is encouraging!
[04:36] <zabin> Does anyone know where wireless network keys are stored?
[04:36] <neozen> zabin: yeah.... they're encrypted
[04:36] <neozen> zabin: they live inside the gnome-keyring-daemon
[04:36] <serenityUK> booster_: i used to run beryl on a geforce3 a while ago
[04:37] <Evanlec> booster_, i believe as long as your vid card has 3d support and isn't REALLY old its no problem
[04:37] <macd> I think they also live in /etc/network/interfaces for things not configured using network-manager
[04:37] <neozen> zabin: get the gnome-keyring-manager and you can view the keys managed by it
[04:38] <m11> flannel , used that command again but it didnt create "apache.pem" in /etc/apache2/ssl/, nor did it create /ssl folder
[04:38] <nickrud> zabin: it's ~/.gnome2/keyrings , but you need gnome-key ..  oh
[04:38] <andresmujica> hi! anyone can watch this videos?? http://www.pokerstars.tv/wcp/es/  i want to watch it but it doesn't work...
[04:38] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, to reconfigure X u talking about the dpkg-reconfigure xorg command?
[04:38] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Yes
[04:39] <zabin> i set up my router and i added the wireless network and changed so many things on it my linux machine is not able to connect to it now
[04:39] <stark> Hi everyone, I installed Ubuntu on a seperate, external USB hard drive and had GRUB install to the hard drive as well.  I had it set up so that if the hard drive was plugged in, it would be higher in the boot order than my regular drive, and so would give me my regular GRUB boot menu.  If it wasn't plugged in, it would boot straight to Vista.  This worked for a while, but for some reason, on my last reboot, Vista was gone from the boot options in
[04:39] <stark> GRUB, and when I tried to restart I got a error along the lines of "No BOOTMGR found, reboot".  Any ideas?
[04:39] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Add -phigh and it only asks for the driver and resolutions
[04:39] <Evanlec> so i just run thru that, select opensource nvidia driver and then go and download binary once GUI works?
[04:39] <zabin> i think that i just have to clear out that file to fix the problem.
[04:39] <Flannel> m11: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/server/C/httpd.html#https-configuration  might help
[04:39] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Yup, or install the nvidia driver with apt-get before starting X
[04:40] <m11> ty flannel i check
[04:40] <krammer> Any other ideas with this wifi problem?
[04:40] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, but installing one from the repo is better than installing latest binary?
[04:40] <nickrud> stark: did you install a kernel recently?
[04:40] <stark> I don't think so
[04:41] <stark> nickrud: My GRUB menu hasn't changed in a while (in terms of automatically adding new kernels to the list)
[04:41] <serenityUK> andresmujica: that is an .asf file from microsoft.. i don't know if they work in linux.. you can find that program on bittorrent though
[04:41] <willdev> does ubuntu run on macs?
[04:41] <ari_stress> hello, is an intel duo core notebook a 64bit system?
[04:41] <stark> nickrud: I only just ran into this problem tonight... kinda scared the hell out of me, to be honest, :O
[04:41] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Better is subjective, the nice thing about the one in the repos is that it won't break when you upgrade the kernel ( apt grabs new drivers when it grabs a new kernel )
[04:41] <serenityUK> andresmujica: programme* i mean tv not software
[04:41] <Flannel> ari_stress: it can be
[04:42] <Evanlec> stark, update-grub will add ur extra kernels
[04:42] <nickrud> stark: a new kernel was release 29th last month, you probably did
[04:42] <serenityUK> willdev: yes
[04:42] <zabin> I am having a problem connecting to a wireless network it finds it but does not connect to it any ideas how to fix this?
[04:42] <willdev> can it dual boot
[04:42] <nickrud> stark: and it runs update-grub, which will mess you up sometimes.
[04:42] <willdev> will it run on my new macbook?
[04:42] <stark> nickrud: I might have done it on the 29th, then, but I'm pretty sure Vista's worked more recently than then
[04:42] <booster_>  /list
[04:42] <ari_stress> Flannel: how do i test it? will running a 64bit live cd prove it?
[04:42] <Jordan_U> willdev, Yes
[04:42] <nickrud> stark: neither boots?
[04:43] <stark> nickrud: Still, it totally jacked up a completely seperate hard drive
[04:43] <nickrud> stark: yes
[04:43] <Flannel> ari_stress: Yep
[04:43] <willdev> is it easy?
[04:43] <Jordan_U> willdev, wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBook
[04:43] <ari_stress> thanks Flannel
[04:43] <andresmujica> hmm- i thought that it would work with restricted codecs...  :(
[04:43] <willdev> ooo ok thanks :D
[04:43] <stark> nickrud: No, Ubuntu boots fine, and I can see the internal hard drive from Ubuntu, I just can't boot to it
[04:43] <bulmer> zabin: are the AP yours?
[04:43] <nesl247> Anyone here familiar with ubuntu's cups patches?
[04:43] <malocite> !games
[04:43] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[04:43] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, on another topic, is upgrading the kernel a good idea to do on ubuntu? or better to just wait for new distro release ?
[04:43] <zabin> yes
[04:43] <zabin> bulmer: yes
[04:43] <nickrud> stark: there are disks out there that will rewrite the vista mbr, that's what you'll have to do.
[04:44] <fujin> Hi look I'm having some issues with vim-full on one of my two servers. They are exactly the same, server2 installed vim-full fine, but server1 says: http://rafb.net/p/2J76tO83.html
[04:44] <bulmer> zabin: how is the signal strength like?
[04:44] <stark> nickrud: Darn, I was hoping to be able to avoid that
[04:44] <zabin> bulmer: im right next to it.
[04:44] <stark> nickrud: I couldn't even manually boot into Vista, though, with any sort of root, chainloader, makeactive, boot thing
[04:44] <nickrud> stark: and there's gotta be an option to tell update-grub to not write an mbr.
[04:44] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Depends on how much work you want to do and weather the features of a newer kernel are important enough to you
[04:44] <bulmer> zabin: is it connected?
[04:44] <stark> nickrud: I'll look into it, thanks.  If you happen to think of anything, I'm all ears
[04:45] <serenityUK> Evanlec: new ubuntu is in October anyway
[04:45] <nickrud> stark: then you're doing what I'd do, and if it doesn't work, I'd say ask someone who knows more than I ;)
[04:45] <zabin> bulmer: i have another ubuntu machine that is connected to it fine. I configured the network on this computer and i have to connect to it and change the sid and then the wireless key so i think from all that connecting to the network and disconnecting to the same one making changes something got messed up
[04:45] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, i see, so its more work because u have to do it manually, vs using package manager?
[04:45] <Evanlec> serenityUK, this is true
[04:45] <stark> nickrud: Ok :)
[04:45] <zabin> bulmer: yes the other computer is working fine on the wireless network.
[04:45] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, The great thing about Linux is that the package manager keeps track of all the versions of everything you have installed and prevents conflicts, when you start doing things outside the package manager you loose some of that advantage
[04:45] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, yea, i gotcha
[04:46] <bulmer> zabin: and you have rebooted since you made all these changes?
[04:46] <krammer> can somebody help me with this wifi problem?

[04:46] <zabin> bulmer: its trying to connect to "linksys" but that isnt a real network anywhere around its old.
[04:46] <DWSR> hmm.
[04:46] <ozozo> hello
[04:46] <zabin> bulmer: yea i restarted like 3 times
[04:47] <bulmer> zabin: can you configure it to lock on to your AP only?
[04:47] <serenityUK> welcome
[04:47] <zabin> bulmer: how do i do that?
[04:47] <ozozo> greetings from Galicia Spain
[04:48] <bulmer> zabin: on your file  /etc/network/interfaces  you can set which essid to use
[04:48] <quasar88> hello all, how do I determine the version of ubuntu I am using ?
[04:48] <zabin> bulmer: do you use network manager?'
[04:48] <bulmer> zabin: and channel
[04:48] <nickrud> !version | quasar88
[04:48] <ubotu> quasar88: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[04:48] <bulmer> zabin: on occasion, but i rely more on /etc/network/interfaces file  and the /proc to find what i need
[04:49] <krammer> can somebody help me with this wifi problem?
[04:49] <riotkittie> what wifi problem?
[04:49] <krammer> all of a sudden i can connect to the internet
[04:49] <zabin> bulmer: do i want to do connect to do "connect to other wireless network" or create New wireless network?
[04:50] <zabin> bulmer: how come its trying to connect to a network that doesnt exist?
[04:50] <bulmer> zabin: only connect to yours and not your neighbors :)
[04:50] <Jose> ohh!! PIDGIN IS SO WONDERFUL!!!
[04:50] <zabin> I know its mine
[04:50] <bulmer> zabin: because the cache may have an old config ..
[04:51] <zabin> i am but which option do i select?
[04:51] <bulmer> zabin yours does not exist? :)
[04:51] <bulmer> zabin: whats the name of your essid?
[04:51] <Digital_Pioneer> OK, my friend has Ubuntu Studio (Feisty) and he needs the prism54 module. How does he get it?
[04:51] <zabin> bulmer: it does but its trying to connect to linksys but i changed the name to something else.
[04:51] <booster_> can anyone tell me if the display driver im using is the only one i can...or is there a way to upgrade the driver????
[04:51] <riotkittie> Digital_Pioneer: its not included?
[04:51] <bulmer> zabin: on your file  /etc/network/interfaces  you can set which wireless-essid to use
[04:52] <m0u5e> hmm i have to say
[04:52] <m0u5e> speech recognition rocks
[04:52] <m0u5e> on vista :D
[04:52] <m0u5e> hope buntu gets it sometime :D
[04:52] <bulmer> zabin: what channel is your AP operating at?
[04:52] <zabin> bulmer: i want to use network-manager though. ?
[04:52] <Pelo> m0u5e, please don'T use the enter key for punctuation
[04:52] <m0u5e> Pelo:  sorry XP
[04:52] <Digital_Pioneer> riotkittie: Apparently not. Studio had a really sad installation CD, it was ncurses. I was expecting a live CD installer, but I might have missed something. Do you know a package name?
[04:52] <bulmer> zabin: well you can, but am not familiar or can not 100% rely on that nm-manager applet
[04:52] <zabin> bulmer: i believe 6 im not sure though im not connected at the moment
[04:53] <Pelo> m0u5e, there is speech recognition in ubuntu i beleive , check in synaptic
[04:53] <bulmer> zabin: do a iwlist wlan0 scan  and check which channels your card can see
[04:53] <ultr1> hi does anybody know how to upgrade glib to 2.0? or google it?
[04:53] <nickrud> ultr1: that's what you have with ubuntu; you trying to compile something?
[04:53] <Pelo> ultr1, I'm pretty sure glib 2.0 is in the repos
[04:54] <skyfalcon866> is it safe to use gusty gibbon
[04:54] <Pelo> skyfalcon866,  ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:54] <ultr1> when i use synaptic it doesnt show in search
[04:54] <joebob777as7> skyfalcon866, no your computer will explode upon install!!!!?!?!?!?!
[04:54] <ari_stress> joebob777as7: is that true??! wow
[04:55] <ultr1> i am trying to compile autopackage so i can install amsn client haha
[04:55] <Pelo> ultr1, just search for gilb , I beleive it will show as a lib  ie libglib
[04:55] <joebob777as7> ari_stress, yup i don't have fingers now! i'm typing with dasher using a helmet!
[04:55] <Pelo> ultr1, you,ll probably need the -dev as well
[04:55] <ultr1> Pelo, ok lemme check
[04:55] <nickrud> ultr1: knew it ;)  sudo aptitude install libglib2.0-dev
[04:55] <Jose> I'm testing PDGIN 2.0 so I love it
[04:55] <zabin> bulmer: it says that wlan0 device does no exisit. i think its eth0 but when i do iwlist eth0 i get unknown command eth0.
[04:55] <Jose> bye
[04:56] <krammer> can somebody help me with this wifi problem?
[04:56] <bulmer> zabin iwlist eth0 scan
[04:56] <nickrud> ultr1: a rule of thumb: when it says you need a library , but a lib at the beginning, do aptitude search <construct> | grep dev
[04:56] <nickrud> *put
[04:56] <Pelo> krammer,  it would help if you stated the problem
[04:56] <bulmer> krammer what kind of wifi nic card you have?
[04:56] <zabin> bulmer: it found it there and it is listed as channel 6
[04:56] <booster_> i had a wi fi problem yesterday and i couldnt figurer it out, o installed a diffrent card and it worked
[04:57] <krammer> all of a sudden i can connect to my router nor my college
[04:57] <malocite> does anyone know the name of a linux casino program?  not for actual gambling?
[04:57] <nickrud> booster_: that is the best troubleshooting I've heard today !
[04:57] <zabin> bulmer: if i set this up using the file  you said before will network manager still work?
[04:57] <ultr1> nickrud, thanks im very new to linux and am trying to learn alot, i have switched from windows and am stuck alot so dont mind stupid questions
[04:57] <Pelo> !game > malocite check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[04:57] <bulmer> zabin how many AP do you detect operating at channel 6? maybe move yours to 11 or 1
[04:57] <nickrud> ultr1: np, simple stuff I can help with
[04:57] <bulmer> zabin nm-manager uses that same file
[04:58] <booster_> i need to figure out what kind of graphics card i need to run beryl
[04:58] <zabin> bulmer: what is the file again sorry?
[04:58] <bulmer> zabin scroll up please
[04:58] <Frogzoo_> krammer: what changed?
[04:58] <Pelo> booster_, ask the ppl in #beryl or #compiz-fusion or #ubuntu-effects ,  try to avoid nvidia or ati
[04:58] <krammer> bulmer: using redeon
[04:58] <ari_stress> gtg
[04:58] <krammer> frog all of a sudden i cannot connect to the interent
[04:58] <booster_> im useing intel
[04:59] <krammer> i tried pinging google but no reponse
[04:59] <edz_> i need help installing my ati driver in ubuntu
[04:59] <bulmer> krammer does your nic have an ip address assigned?
[04:59] <edz_> or actually i need the link
[04:59] <Frogzoo_> krammer: wireless or wired?
[04:59] <krammer> wireless
[04:59] <zabin> bulmer: that file does not have any information about other networks that i ahve connected to though.
[04:59] <angelo> hello
[04:59] <nickrud> !ati | edz_
[04:59] <ubotu> edz_: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:59] <Pelo> booster_, depending on how much memory you hve it shold be ok ,  I have one,  but I don'T run the effects becase I find them annoying
[04:59] <krammer> i never had a problem for months and now i have this problem i also unistalled firestarter
[04:59] <Frogzoo_> krammer: check iwconfig for starters
[05:00] <bulmer> zabin you may have to google search the options you can use in that file..i know of wireless-essid
[05:00] <nickrud> kept the windows guys away
[05:00] <bulmer> zabin: i dont recall all the options..so you much google for it
[05:00] <ultr1> ok i got libglib-2.0-dev and when i try to run the autopackage it still says i need to upgrade? should i restart?
[05:00] <krammer> no wirelss extensions
[05:00] <Pelo> nickrud,  what ?
[05:00] <Frogzoo_> krammer: where's your wireless interface gone?
[05:01] <nickrud> Pelo: one of the effects was the windows would go out in a flame of glory when you closed them
[05:01] <nickrud> smoke and all
[05:01] <krammer> educated me
[05:01] <bulmer> krammer: do a iwconfig  and see if you're getting an ip address
[05:01] <Pelo> nickrud, ah yes,  I remember ,
[05:01] <nickrud> Pelo: made the windows guys look a littel crossed
[05:01] <krammer> no ip
[05:02] <krammer> lo no wireless extensions etho no wirelss bah blah
[05:02] <Frogzoo_> krammer: you won't get an ip without a wireless if
[05:02] <nickrud> ultr1: no, rebooting won't help, probably needs another library as well
[05:02] <ultr1> nickrud, that sucks cus it doesnt tell me which one to get
[05:02] <fujin> is there anyway to work out what 'non-zero' means?
[05:02] <fujin> == Spawn extension (macro-queue_helpdesk, s, 7) exited non-zero on 'SIP/maxnetvoip-b5a0d6e8' in macro 'queue_helpdesk'
[05:02] <fujin> i.e; ^
[05:02] <Pelo> nickrud,  I was quite interested in the water effects but my card would not support it , too bad that was realy the only thing I liked
[05:03] <Pelo> fujin,  go to the forum and do a search for the error msg
[05:03] <mbt> fujin, You might want to go to an Asterisk channel
[05:03] <fujin> doh
[05:03] <krammer> when i iwconfig it looks like it picked up my router thats it
[05:03] <nickrud> ultr1: I've never compiled autopackage; maybe there's an autopackage channel that can help. You can search on ircsearch.com
[05:03] <Evanlec> Pelo, are u sure it was a hardware problem?
[05:04] <Pelo> Evanlec, I woudln'T call it a problem must a limit,  it was beryl ,  a while back, that's what the #beryl ppl told me, everythign else was working fine , I jsut ahve a intel 845g 32 meg
[05:04] <bulmer> ultr1: which version of glibc do you currently have now?
[05:05] <riotkittie> i wonder if i hate myself enough to try buryl again
[05:05] <Evanlec> Pelo, oh i gotcha, ya the intel onboard a little flaky with that, u tried fusion?
[05:05] <ker> #ubuntu-es
[05:05] <riotkittie> err beryl.
[05:05] <bulmer> krammer: do a iwconfig  and see if you're getting an ip address..are you?
[05:05] <krammer> no
[05:05] <DWSR> Anyone knowledgable about VNC in here?
[05:05] <thejoe> has anyone had an issue wherein the contents of firefox looked slightly stretched??
[05:06] <krammer> i really hate to reinstall ubuntu
[05:06] <bulmer> krammer you need to reply with a prefix on your response to me or else i will miss it
[05:06] <Frogzoo_> DWSR: 1000 peeps in chan you realise
[05:06] <Pelo> Evanlec,  no,  I didn'T realy care for effects anyway,  I just played with it for 15-30 minutes to see what it was all about and it was enough
[05:06] <krammer> how do i that
[05:06] <Frogzoo_> DWSR: asking is just spam
[05:06] <scguy318> DWSR whats the question?
[05:06] <Evanlec> Pelo, o i c
[05:06] <Pelo> krammer,  put your /home on a sepereate partition,  that way you get all your settings back
[05:07] <DWSR> Frogzoo_: I realize, hence why I asked the first question. :-P
[05:07] <krammer> be honest with you i dont know how
[05:07] <Evanlec> krammer, all your settings? i thot /home just kept ur data
[05:07] <ultr1> bulmer, when i try to compile autopackage it says 1.0
[05:07] <Frogzoo_> !anyone | DWSR
[05:07] <ubotu> DWSR: 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?
[05:07] <Evanlec> err pelo
[05:08] <ultr1> bulmer, actually no it doesnt say my current v
[05:08] <bulmer> ultr1: in that case thats a major work..you may have to refer to the book embedded linux to get a step by step tutorial on compiling a glibc
[05:08] <DWSR> Frogzoo_: But my question started with "Anyone", so :-P
[05:08] <DWSR> Anyways, it doesn't matter. I've figured out my problem. Seems I overlooked something.
[05:08] <nickrud> ultr1: did it say glib , or glibc ?
[05:08] <Pelo> krammer,  jsut use gparted to create a new partition ,  copy /home to it ,  then when you reinstall ubuntu , just use the manual partitionning and make a partiton for / select your old /swap and specify your /home partiton ,
[05:09] <ultr1> glib
[05:09] <Pelo> Evanlec, ?
[05:09] <krammer> if i do they i will have the same problem
[05:09] <Evanlec> Pelo, u said to put /home on seperate partition, but wouldnt that just keep data, not going to keep ur apps/settings
[05:09] <nickrud> ultr1: gnome runs on glib2.0 , so I don't understand why autopackage would claim it's not there.
[05:10] <Pelo> Evanlec,  yes it would
[05:10] <Flannel> Evanlec: your settings are saved in your homedir (except for server configs)
[05:10] <krammer> this wont solve the problem, also i just use acronis to back up my system
[05:10] <Evanlec> what kind of settings?
[05:10] <Pelo> Evanlec,  goto your /home folder and   hit crtl_h ,
[05:10] <Flannel> Evanlec: Everythign that belongs to YOU
[05:10] <ultr1> nickrud, yeah that is wierd then
[05:10] <Evanlec> no kidding
[05:10] <Pelo> Evanlec,  nothing hardware related, but app setings
[05:10] <Evanlec> but certainly it wouldnt keep things like xorg.conf
[05:10] <Distort13> heya
[05:10] <nickrud> ultr1: definitely an autopackage channel question.
[05:10] <ultr1> haha ok thanks
[05:10] <Pelo> Evanlec,  you'll seill need to reinstall apps
[05:11] <Pelo> Evanlec,  no nothing hardware related
[05:11] <Evanlec> but if u re-installed lets say x-chat, it would keep your settings for it?
[05:11] <edz_> i installed the ati drivers on ubuntu and click on the system, restricted device manager, and clicked on my ati card, but when i type fglrxinfo it still gives me the mesa project thing
[05:11] <Evanlec> or firefox ?
[05:11] <Pelo> Evanlec,  yes,  and your bookmarks and  cookies
[05:11] <nickrud> edz_: did you restart X?
[05:11] <scguy318> edz_: did you reboot?
[05:11] <edz_> yeah
[05:12] <Evanlec> wow!
[05:12] <Pelo> Evanlec,  old emails
[05:12] <edz_> i sure did
[05:12] <Evanlec> lol
[05:12] <Pelo> Evanlec,  themes, background,  pannel apps, etc
[05:12] <Distort13> hey im a new ubuntu user :)
[05:12] <Evanlec> Pelo, do you keep your /home/ directory through distro upgrades even?
[05:12] <nickrud> !welcome | Distort13
[05:12] <ubotu> Distort13: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel.
[05:12] <Pelo> Distort13, welcome to the madhouse
[05:12] <Distort13> was wondering if anyone had a answer to my problem
[05:13] <Evanlec> or re-installs
[05:13] <ultr1> welcome Distort13 your not the only one haha
[05:13] <Pelo> Evanlec,  yes that's what I do
[05:13] <scguy318> edz_: prob check your xorg.conf, the Device section -> Driver i think
[05:13] <nickrud> Distort13: ask away, nothing ventured, nothing gained
[05:13] <edz_> yeah
[05:13] <Pelo> Evanlec,  taht is the whole point,   when you reinstall the / partiton gets formated,   if your /home in on a seperate partition all your data and settings are safe
[05:13] <edz_> my device says Generic video card
[05:14] <scguy318> edz_: the driver?
[05:14] <edz_> driver is fglrx
[05:14] <edz_> videooverlay on
[05:14] <edz_> opengloverlay off
[05:14] <edz_> pci:1:0:0
[05:14] <edz_> its agp card
[05:14] <scguy318> weird, that should be it
[05:14] <Distort13> im trying to get my Counter strike source to work i have it installed and everything through wine and when i try to launch the game it shows me the normal background screen to the game then just quits and leaves me in 800x600
[05:14] <Evanlec> Pelo, i see, but u wouldnt dare putting a different distro on there and using those settings would you?
[05:15] <scguy318> Distort13: what Wine version, what vid card?
[05:15] <Pelo> Evanlec,  yes
[05:15] <scguy318> Distort13: and if you dont get an answer here #winehq i think
[05:15] <Evanlec> i guess as long as the apps were the same...
[05:15] <Evanlec> and the window manager..?
[05:15] <Distort13> the latest wine and ati x850 pro
[05:15] <scguy318> Distort13: from Ubuntu's repo or Wine's BudgetDedicated?
[05:15] <Pelo> Evanlec,  the only problems would arise if the apps were different versions,  they might not be able to use the exact settngs  or would update them
[05:15] <Distort13> ihave wow runnin fantasticly but source just wont
[05:16] <Distort13> from wines
[05:16] <Evanlec> i see
[05:16] <booster_> ok guys im running a system with a p3 cpu 512 mb ram, and it has an intel onboard graphics chip.....i think its like 64 mb, not sure, do you think it will run beryl??
[05:16] <b33r> what's the default location of jre?
[05:16] <scguy318> Distort13: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=3731 might be enlightening
[05:16] <cheebz88> if i want to use kde
[05:16] <cheebz88> and i'm using gnome currently
[05:16] <cheebz88> do i have to reinstall?
[05:16] <Pelo> booster_,  you'd hve to ask in #beryl
[05:16] <cheebz88> or can i just switch
[05:16] <booster_> ok
[05:17] <Pelo> cheebz88,   sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[05:17] <nickrud> b33r: /usr/lib/jvm/??
[05:17] <ScreaminIk1> what's the command to modify my x resolution?
[05:17] <cheebz88> Pelo, thank you
[05:17] <Pelo> Distort13,  you'd have to ask in #winehq
[05:17] <thejoe> i have an ati radeo 9500 (which is running correctly - fglrxinfo gives proper ATI specs) however, the screen looks stretched on my 20" dell lcd....any help would be greatly appreciated
[05:17] <b33r> nickrud, thanks
[05:17] <nickrud> b33r: you thinking about installing a bin from sun?
[05:17] <scguy318> Screaminlk1 the Screen Res applet? sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg may be what you're thinking of
[05:18] <Pelo> cheebz88, that will get you both desktop and default apps , you can choose which to use at login
[05:18] <Clinton__> !pastebin
[05:18] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:18] <b33r> nickrud, yes
[05:18] <b33r> nickrud, anything else I need to know?
[05:18] <nickrud> b33r: you can get sun's java from the repos:  sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin  , no need to hand install java
[05:18] <b33r> nickrud, I want the latest version :/
[05:19] <Pelo> b33r,  enable the backport repos and you can insall sun-java6-jre
[05:19] <b33r> nickrud, I already have the repos one I'm experiencing some problems with a game
[05:19] <nickrud> !java | b33r that will help you get a decent hand install
[05:19] <ubotu> b33r that will help you get a decent hand install: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:21] <b33r> more fun to do it on my own ;p
[05:21] <nickrud> b33r: the link should show you how to integrate nicely
[05:21] <Pelo> b33r, as long as " we" don'T hve to share in the fun
[05:21] <b33r> lol
[05:21] <shifty-> Pelo: if i have the default login window and install kde, i can select it from there?
[05:22] <xjkx> Ok, so there is this bug that freezes me on X, even my keyboard freezes, the mouse, everything, i cant just do anything ! although the machine keeps serving proxy lol? if i start vncserver, i can remotly log on other machine and kill X rofl, my point is, is there a way to give more priority to keyboard? or any other idea better than that
[05:22] <Pelo> shifty-, if you have ubuntu installed and you install kubuntu-desktop you can chose to load gnome or kde from the login window
[05:23] <nickrud> b33r: sorry, that's changed a lot since I last looked, it used to have some good instructions about adding your new sun to the alternatives, so everything knew where to look
[05:23] <shifty-> Pelo: thanks
[05:23] <b33r> trying to install now I'll tell u the results in sec :)
[05:24] <taggie> nickrud, thanks for the help, it was even simpler than i thought, model=thinkpad, go figure
[05:24] <nickrud> taggie: lol
[05:24] <taggie> that was difficult
[05:25] <taggie> but you were right on the money with the modprobe option. so, thanks again. want to go for 2 in a row? i'm having problems with a new gutsy alternative install, apt-get update always seems to fail with bzip2 problems.
[05:25] <nickrud> man, java-package is over a year old, no wonder someone minimized it
[05:26] <nickrud> taggie: full error on a pastebin, and maybe
[05:26] <krammer> hi
[05:27] <b33r> nickrud, is it normal to have 2 folders in jvm "java-6-sun" and "java-6-sun-1.6.0.00?
[05:27] <nickrud> b33r: if you ls -l , you'll see that the short one is a link to the long one.
[05:28] <krammer> wifi not working / so used a lan line still cannot connect to the internet
[05:28] <shifty-> ubuntu uses gdm by default, correct?
[05:28] <b33r> oh thanks dumb me ;p
[05:28] <Pelo> shifty-, ubuntu does,  kubuntu uses kde
[05:28] <Flannel> shifty-: xubuntu does too
[05:28] <shifty-> ok
[05:29] <Rynoo> Can anyone recommend a PPP dialup manager for Ubuntu?
[05:29] <Pelo> !dialup | Rynoo
[05:29] <ubotu> Rynoo: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[05:30] <bulmer> krammer is it getting an ip address?
[05:30] <Ashfire908> Rynoo, there is gnome-ppp
[05:31] <Ashfire908> Rynoo, it uses wvdial
[05:31] <gonzoism> what is the command to pull a .config out of the kernel, when /proc/config.gz isn't there ?
[05:31] <Pelo> gonzoism,   cat /proc ....
[05:31] <gonzoism> Rynoo   pppconfig is pretty awesome
[05:32] <gonzoism> Pelo   ?
[05:32] <nickrud> b33r: this is not official advice, just personal: I'd get the java-package 0.34 from debian, and use it to make a package
[05:32] <Pelo> I was completing your command ,   cat /proc/config.gz
[05:32] <bulmer> gonzoism: i think make oldconfig
[05:32] <yurimxpxman> are there any programs designed to rescue scratched CDs?
[05:33] <b33r> nickrud, O.o
[05:33] <b33r> nickrud, why?
[05:33] <Rynoo> thanks all
[05:33] <nickrud> b33r: fiesty has 0.28, which doesn't support java6, but the one from debian does. It creates a deb you can install, and then set the alternative to.
[05:34] <Pelo> yurimxpxman,  I think someone menitonned forcing mount a few days ago for a similar problem
[05:34] <cschauer> If someone could help me out, I installed ubuntu 7.0.4 desktop version to my computer, it will not load the normal desktop, it goes to a command type prompt
[05:34] <gonzoism> i have a compiled kernel, and i need the .config out of it.  and /proc/config.gz isn't there,   can't you strip it out ?
[05:34] <gonzoism> cschauer is that gutsy or feisty ?
[05:34] <b33r> nickrud, where can I get dl it? do u know any link?
[05:35] <cschauer> gutsy or feisty?
[05:35] <gonzoism> 7.04 is feisty ?
[05:35] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, did u say u had experience with intel-soft-raid?
[05:35] <Flannel> gonzoism: yes
[05:35] <nickrud> b33r: http://packages.debian.org/sid/java-package . Read the bug reports, change log, and decide for yourself
[05:35] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, No
[05:35] <b33r> nickrud, ok thanks
[05:35] <gonzoism> cschauer  are you logged in ?  does startx do anything ?
[05:35] <File13> disreguard that, i suck cocks
[05:35] <Evanlec> anyone have experience with intel's software raid and installing ubuntu?
[05:36] <cschauer> gonzoism: let me try
[05:36] <b33r> lol
[05:36] <Pelo> that should put the fear of tonyyarusso in the channel
[05:36] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, i just tried installing with the alternate CD and no dice, didnt detect my array properly
[05:37] <Jordan_U> !raid | Evanlec Might be useful info

[05:37] <nandemonai> Hiya guys, Has anyone come across an issue with maximizing and unmaximizing windows in gnome with desktop effects enabled? I'm running Feisty and the Restricted NV driver. Windows will maximize but most the time after doing so I lose control of the window borders (cant do anything with them, like they don't exist) and I have to unmaximize via the window list.
[05:37] <cschauer> gonzoism: udevd-event[1928] : run_program '/sbin/modprobe/' abnormal exit
[05:37] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, i've read it
[05:37] <Sam_Wesin> im having trouble booting up sometimes.. i have my comp dual booted with windows
[05:37] <Sam_Wesin> not sure what hte problem is
[05:37] <Sam_Wesin> any suggestions
[05:37] <Pelo> nandemonai,  you should ask in #ubuntu-effects
[05:37] <nandemonai> Pelo, Ah will do thanks.
[05:38] <Pelo> Sam_Wesin,  what's the symptom ?
[05:38] <Jordan_U> Sam_Wesin, What sort of trouble?
[05:38] <cschauer> gonzoism: startx did nothing
[05:38] <nickrud> you should read him on the mail lists, burn baby
[05:38] <b33r> nickrud, it says that it works for sun 1.4 and 1.5 not 1.6 :/
[05:38] <Sam_Wesin> not sure if its ubuntu related, but at the moment windows has a really slow login
[05:38] <nickrud> b33r: read the changelog, it's more recent
[05:38] <Pelo> cschauer, what video card ?
[05:38] <Sam_Wesin> before that the boot grub wasnt being found
[05:38] <b33r> mmk
[05:38] <cschauer> Geforce FX 5200
[05:39] <cschauer> Pelo: it worked with the live cd inserted
[05:39] <nickrud> b33r: that's all been done since fiesty came out. I tried to write some wiki stuff about it a year ago, I wish this guy had started earlier
[05:39] <cschauer> Pelo: only after I installed and restarted, with the live cd out, it started this
[05:39] <h1st0> Sam_Wesin: so grub is no longer there?
[05:39] <Sam_Wesin> it is\
[05:39] <robert_> more b33r
[05:40] <Sam_Wesin> some times it wont find it though
[05:40] <Pelo> cschaue try   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  and try with the vesa driver if it diesont, work with the one for your card
[05:40] <Sam_Wesin> i dunno
[05:40] <b33r> robert_? :o
[05:40] <gonzoism> cschauer using their drivers ?   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  and see if X works.
[05:40] <h1st0> Sam_Wesin: what sort of set up do you have with the daul boot?  is it on one drive?
[05:40] <bulmer> gonzoism: cat /boot/config-2.6.15-28-386
[05:40] <Sam_Wesin> yea
[05:40] <robert_> yes? I was making a pun off your nickname :P
[05:40] <Sam_Wesin> one drive
[05:40] <gonzoism> bulmer   thanks
[05:40] <Pelo> Sam_Wesin, plese don'T use the enter key for punctuation
[05:40] <b33r> :D
[05:40] <robert_> as I usually use 'b33r' :D :P
[05:41] <gonzoism> bulmer i wouldn't have thought about that
[05:41] <h1st0> Sam_Wesin: I'm still confused on the problem slow windows or not seeing grub allt he time?
[05:41] <Pelo> g'night folks
[05:41] <bulmer> gonzoism: i have to look at my notes..i cant remember them myself
[05:41] <Sam_Wesin> its probably two seperate problems
[05:41] <dras_> Anyone know if theres a way in GNOME to make it change virtual desktops when the cursor goes to the edge of the screen ?
[05:41] <nickrud> night Pelo, late
[05:42] <cschauer> Pelo, Gonzoism: It's at a shell prompt, these commands are not doing anything
[05:42] <Jordan_U> dras_, There is always a way
[05:42] <nickrud> dras_: install the package brightside, it gives you that and some more
[05:42] <dras_> coool thanks
[05:42] <Sam_Wesin> how can i boot up into safe mode? its not an option on my boot menu.
[05:42] <gonzoism> cschauer are you pressing enter after typing them ?
[05:42] <nickrud> Sam_Wesin: it's called recovery mode
[05:42] <olivier_> Hello!
[05:42] <cschauer> gonzoism: yes
[05:43] <h1st0> Sam_Wesin: safe mode in windows?
[05:43] <Sam_Wesin> yes
[05:43] <gonzoism> cschauer   and no output or anything ?
[05:43] <nickrud> Sam_Wesin: if you don't see it, when the screen says something about grub, hit escape
[05:43] <cschauer> gonzoism: nothing
[05:43] <h1st0> Sam_Wesin: hit f8 right before the window logo appears then select it.

[05:47] <PinkFloyd> Im having trouble launching KDE apps in Gnome. They simply wont load at all. What can I do?
[05:47] <olivier_> bulmer and after? i'm in the termnal

[05:47] <mike6546> ?
[05:47] <joshritger> I am using beryl and I have my windows decorator set to metacity. If I go into the default gnome theme preferences app it lets me pick a gtk2 theme but not metacity. Can someone help me fix this?
[05:47] <SeveredCross> mike6546: sudo apt-get --purge remove wine
[05:48] <JesterJAG> ! Living people!
[05:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about living people! - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[05:48] <cschauer> gonzoism: /bin/sh: sudo: not found
[05:48] <gonzoism> PinkFloyd  any errors ?  missing libs or what ?
[05:48] <JesterJAG> Living people!
[05:48] <PinkFloyd> gonzoism, not that I know of
[05:48] <mike6546> bah which one?
[05:48] <nickrud> b33r: man make-jpkg gives the full instructions, and SUPPORTED in that file lists the exact packages from sun that are supported
[05:48] <PinkFloyd> gonzoism, seems to be all KDE apps and a few others
[05:48] <mike6546> okaye nm
[05:48] <mike6546> both
[05:48] <gonzoism> cschauer hm...  try these commands.  which sudo   whereis sudo  locate sudo   3 commands
[05:49] <cschauer> gonzoism: ok
[05:49] <wckdkl0wn> how would i kill a specific app?
[05:49] <Frogzoo> mike6546: also don't use the ubuntu wine repo which is dated, use the budgetdedicated repo mentioned in the ubuntu wiki doc
[05:49] <nickrud> mike6546: both
[05:49] <cschauer> gonzoism: all commands respond "not found"
[05:49] <gonzoism> wckdkl0wn  ps ax   get its id, and kill id_number   or killall appname  (killall firefox)
[05:49] <bulmer> olivier_: so you are able to log on..just fix your xorg.conf to give you X window
[05:49] <gonzoism> cschauer weird.  is this a new install ?
[05:50] <cschauer> gonzoism: yes, it worked with the live cd inserted though
[05:50] <mike6546> frogzoo i am using the wine repo from winehq.org
[05:50] <JesterJAG> I can get xubuntu to run on a machine, but ubuntu will not load up (/bin/sh ... tty... error).  I figured out [on a different machine]  how to access the HDs with ubuntu, but can't seem to be able to do the same as easily with xubuntu.
[05:50] <b33r> The program 'make-jpkg' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[05:50] <b33r> sudo apt-get install java-package
[05:50] <b33r> =/
[05:50] <cschauer> gonzoism: suggest fresh install?
[05:50] <gonzoism> cschauer   i don't think it installed right.
[05:50] <gonzoism> cschauer yeah
[05:50] <JesterJAG> I _need_ to backup some images off of this drive (before I format it)...

[05:50] <JesterJAG> Anyone here willing and able to help me out?

[05:50] <weazzle> I will try my best
[05:51] <cschauer> gonzoism: alright
[05:51] <Frogzoo> rockets: no
[05:51] <rockets> ok
[05:51] <gonzoism> cschauer   you have the md5sum command ?  if so you can md5sum /dev/cdrom  and see if the md5sum matches up with the md5sum of the install image (where you got it, ubuntu.iso.md5)
[05:51] <PinkFloyd> I try to launch Ktorrent, it doesnt load and there's no errors in dmesg
[05:51] <bulmer> olivier_: ihave not recovered a failed X window or gdm windows manager..sorry maybe someone else can assist
[05:51] <nickrud> b33r: you need to get the package from that link I gave you
[05:51] <b33r> I got it .tar.gz
[05:52] <b33r> after extracting
[05:52] <JesterJAG> I literally do not have a lot of time. :(
[05:52] <b33r> I did sudo make?
[05:52] <gonzoism> cschauer or if it only takes you a minute or two to dowload it, just get it again.  maybe reburn the cd.  you are missing stuff, bad install.
[05:52] <scguy318> rockets: dont think so, uncompress on Windows
[05:52] <nickrud> b33r: the .deb file?
[05:52] <scguy318> b33r: make, then sudo make install a
[05:52] <b33r> I didn't find any .deb
[05:52] <mike6546> should I use wine-doors, winebot or winetools?
[05:52] <b33r> scguy318, make install doesn't work
[05:52] <gonzoism> cschauer   but being you already got the cd, you could just give it another go, and see if that works.
[05:52] <dmarciows> quit
[05:52] <wckdkl0wn> gonzoism, i cant find firefox in the pid list
[05:52] <scguy318> b33r: did you ./configure first then make?
[05:52] <wonton_> jester, tar -cvf /dirtosaveto/pactures.tar /whereveryourpicturesare/* - wils tar the entire dir contents
[05:53] <b33r> scguy318, ./configure doesn't work either
[05:53] <nickrud> b33r: http://packages.debian.org/sid/java-package/all/download
[05:53] <JesterJAG> (Those of you already helping others, I'm not looking to take you away from them.  I'm looking for someone who isn't already helping someone else.)
[05:53] <gonzoism> wckdkl0wn  ps ax|grep fox
[05:53] <scguy318> b33r: you did extract the tarball, right? and why not?
[05:53] <wckdkl0wn> gonzoism, 6834 ?        Sl   316:58 /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin
[05:53] <revilodraw> anyone know a batch filename changer?
[05:53] <gonzoism> wckdkl0wn   i guess you are wanting to kill firefox ?   killall firefox-bin does that too
[05:53] <nickrud> scguy318: it's java-package, not a source file. He wants to use one of the latest sun javas
[05:53] <scguy318> revilodraw: /bin/bash :P
[05:53] <Frogzoo> mike6546: none of the above?
[05:53] <gonzoism> wckdkl0wn   yep.   kill 6834     would kill firefox
[05:53] <revilodraw> scguy: sorry/ dont get u?
[05:54] <wckdkl0wn> ok ty
[05:54] <navid> Hiya,
[05:54] <wonton_> or just /whereveryourpicturesare/ , lol
[05:54] <scguy318> revilodraw: you can type commands in the shell to achieve a batch rename
[05:54] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   what are you wanting to back up to ?  another box, cd, floppy ??
[05:54] <revilodraw> scguy: oh cool, how?
[05:54] <navid> Anyone got any suggestion for best application for ubuntu to use for IRC
[05:54] <navid> i use Xchat..but its not really the greatest
[05:54] <nickrud> b33r: and you'll need one of jre-6u[0-9] -linux-i586.bin
[05:54] <PinkFloyd> Xchat is the best Ive seen
[05:54] <gonzoism> navid   BitchX is pretty good.  epic too.
[05:54] <b33r> nickrud, yeah I got that
[05:54] <PinkFloyd> navid, Ive seen a copy of nIRC on Damn Small Linux but Ive never been able to find souce for it
[05:54] <b33r> installing the .deb
[05:54] <gonzoism> navid   there is a gui bitchx i think too
[05:55] <scguy318> revilodraw: http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2000/01/msg02742.html, overkill tho, what's the rename that u want to achieve?
[05:55] <nickrud> excellent, run again
[05:55] <gonzoism> JesterJAG  ???
[05:55] <PinkFloyd> navid, you could run mIRC under Wine, it works just fine
[05:55] <navid> i use xchat currently and its display is really nice but lacks on features
[05:55] <navid> oh i could
[05:55] <nickrud> gonna write this up, it's worth it now
[05:55] <JesterJAG> gonsoism> I need to backup images to either a CD or across the network.
[05:55] <navid> sweet, thanks PinkFloyd
[05:55] <scipio_> i like irssi
[05:55] <JesterJAG> Gonsoism> Eventually they need to get to a CD.
[05:55] <navid> One more question; I've heard rumours about automatix2 not being best thing to use..is it true
[05:55] <nickrud> !automatix
[05:55] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[05:55] <PinkFloyd> navid, I havent had problems with it
[05:56] <scguy318> navid: I'm using mIRC right now ;)
[05:56] <wonton_> jester, places > cd/dvd creator
[05:56] <JesterJAG> Gonsoism> However, getting them off the machine and backup safely to anywhere is first priority, moving them onto CD Secondary.  The method is unimportant, just the result.
[05:56] <nickrud> PinkFloyd: just a heads up, be careful when you do an upgrade, that's usually where the bugs pop up
[05:56] <gonzoism> JesterJAG  tar -cf - mp3s/|ssh user@host tar -xf - -C /home/user/     need me to point out what to change ?
[05:56] <PinkFloyd> nickrud, I only used it for like 2 things >_>
[05:57] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   assuming you have sshd installed somewhere on the network
[05:57] <orbisvicis> !guarddog
[05:57] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:57] <nickrud> PinkFloyd: depending, you might have better luck than sid
[05:57] <navid> Sweet, Thanks. Gotta go install wine now
[05:57] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> Yes.  I am totally lost.  Never used Linux before.
[05:57] <navid> is winex better then wine
[05:57] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> I'm using a live CD.  Right now nothing else.
[05:57] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   have a linux box on the network ?
[05:57] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> The xubuntu live-cd box is currently on the network. Yes.
[05:57] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   how big are all the images ?  are they all together in a folder ?
[05:57] <orbisvicis> anyone know the printing port/service name (in guarddog) used by a detected printer (cups?)
[05:57] <danieldan> hey, how you doing I have a problem configuring my wireless
[05:58] <JesterJAG> gonzoism> No idea.  I'm backing them up for a friend.  The pictures are their baby pictures.
[05:58] <gonzoism> danieldan   sudo wifi-radar
[05:58] <danieldan> gonzoism: ok
[05:58] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> I'm assuming the pictures to be anywhere and everywhere... and unknown size.
[05:58] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   do you know which ones ?  are they all in a folder ?  lol, you have to be able to get to the pictures to find them
[05:58] <rockets> Frogzoo, scguy318 turns out ntfs-3g can read compressed files but cant write to them
[05:58] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   ok.  then you can get a list like this.
[05:58] <navid> I suppose wineX is used for gaming purposes only
[05:59] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> I do understand that.  I want to get drive access to search the drive for them.
[05:59] <scguy318> rockets: really? didn't know that :)
[05:59] <rockets> navid, its cedega now, and its best used for northing.
[05:59] <h1st0> navid: I just use wine for gamming
[05:59] <Weng_Lap> wtf
[05:59] <olivier_> can someone help me? I got a blank screen after my login... what can do?
[05:59] <Weng_Lap> tony@SLAB-UBUNTU:~$ sudo firefox
[05:59] <Weng_Lap> Password:
[05:59] <Weng_Lap> You should really not run firefox through sudo WITHOUT the -H option.
[05:59] <Weng_Lap> Anyway, I'll do as if you did use the -H option.
[05:59] <Frogzoo> rockets: interesting
[05:59] <b33r> nickrud, I installed it
[05:59] <rockets> navid, regular wine has a way better D3D engine then Cedega does
[05:59] <gonzoism> JesterJAG  you in ubuntu cd ?
[05:59] <b33r> nothing changed
[05:59] <Weng_Lap> whoops
[05:59] <Weng_Lap> wrong channel
[05:59] <navid> I see
[05:59] <PinkFloyd> Weng_Lap, why are you running FF under sudo anyway, lol
[05:59] <b33r> nickrud, Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b105)
[05:59] <nickrud> b33r: now, sudo update-alternatives --config java
[05:59] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   keep up with me, i'll sign off and go to sleep when we finish
[05:59] <jonli447_> hi guys.  I was wondering, do you guys happen to know of a version of zend optimizer that works with Feisty for ppc ?
[05:59] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> xubuntu, live CD is loaded.  Ubuntu would not load.
[05:59] <rockets> navid, cedega is based on a version of wine thats like 10 years old or something
[05:59] <yurimxpxman> do any of you know of a way to play RealVideo 3?
[06:00] <scguy318> navid: Cedega is also payware
[06:00] <rockets> yurimxpxman, install realplayer, theres aq linux version
[06:00] <gonzoism> JesterJAG  k, its mounted in /media/    go ahead and check
[06:00] <h1st0> !real | yurimxpxman
[06:00] <ubotu> yurimxpxman: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:00] <navid> haha, I saw in one of the forums how this user was saying wineX (Cedega) was performing a lot better then wine for starcraft
[06:00] <olivier_> can someone help me? I got a blank screen after my login... what can do?
[06:00] <danieldan> gonzoism: problem is i get this message wmaster0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Operation not suppported" i get the same message thousands of times
[06:00] <yurimxpxman> rockets: isn't there an xine codec or anything?
[06:00] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   you know how to get there ?
[06:00] <b33r> nickrud, this one /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java ?
[06:00] <rockets> yurimxpxman, it doesnt work well
[06:00] <h1st0> navid: its possible but you have to pay for cedega
[06:00] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> Phone call... and checking /media/
[06:00] <gonzoism> danieldan   from sudo wifi-radar
[06:00] <rockets> navid, if you want a paid prject, crossover is doing a lot of game-related work now
[06:00] <gonzoism> danieldan  ?
[06:00] <navid> I'll stick to wine for now, until i get hang of things around
[06:01] <danieldan> yeah
[06:01] <nickrud> b33r: that should be the one you have already
[06:01] <navid> I'll look into that rockets  thanks
[06:01] <jedherzog> I am about to complete a LAMP installation on my Ubuntu Feisty Desktop Box.  I want the GUI which is why I am using the Desktop version instead of the Server version.  I am following this tutorial. http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_lamp_for_newbies   I know that using the server edition not only can preinstall LAMP but it also takes a lot of security steps (i.e. closing certain ports).  This tutorial only installs LAMP and does not cove
[06:01] <jedherzog> r any additional steps that might be needed for security.  Is there anything you can suggest that I do?
[06:01] <danieldan> goinzoism: yeah
[06:01] <b33r> nickrud,  1    /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.1?
[06:01] <gonzoism> danieldan   some cards don't support it..    what card you got ?
[06:01] <Weng_Lap> PinkFloyd: Actually, I'm running Firefox under sudo because I need my webmail client to be able to attach something in a root-only directory.
[06:01] <Frogzoo> navid don't use the ubuntu wine repo which is dated, use the budgetdedicated repo mentioned in the ubuntu wiki doc
[06:01] <ultra> hello again
[06:01] <nickrud> b33r: no, a sec here
[06:01] <Weng_Lap> And I'm too lazy to copy it out.
[06:01] <navid> Yea thats what i got :)
[06:02] <navid> winehq has that currently for download
[06:02] <ultra> quick question, how to add repository
[06:02] <Geoffrey2> should there be anything in my /etc/ld.so.conf file?
[06:02] <gonzoism> ultra in the menus.
[06:02] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> Totally lost man, treat me like a dumb child.
[06:03] <JesterJAG> (Not that children are dumb.  Dumb + Child = me)
[06:03] <danieldan> goinzoism: mmm Is a USB adapter "TP-LINK" the funny thing is that it detects the wirelles network but as if there wasn't any signal strength, and with a lock just next to it
[06:03] <gonzoism> ultra  in synaptic, you can get to them in the settings menu.  find it ?
[06:03] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   i'm 3.  are you calling me dumb ?
[06:03] <yurimxpxman> rockets: is there a way to convert it to something more usable, like ogg?
[06:03] <jafoo0> Hey guys, I need your opinion, I tried dual booting ubuntu with windows yesterday, and 3/4ths through the ubuntu install, it died (CD was faulty).  I can boot a (working) ubuntu cd and access the NTFS partition, but there aren't any options for a guided install.  I've tried doing a manual install (by creating two partitions), but my computer doesn't want to seem to boot. Any suggestions?
[06:04] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> Funny.  Read my statement after the last.  I didn't point it towards you, but the main channel.
[06:04] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   is there a menu ?  click it, then accessories, the command prompt.  or terminal.  that black box.
[06:04] <scguy318> jafoo0: Super GRUB for the interim?
[06:04] <jafoo0> super grub... i'll look into it, i've never heard of it..
[06:04] <Frogzoo> jafoo0: if it's a new comp, look at disabling mmu, if it's oldish, try 'acpi=no'
[06:05] <JesterJAG> Gonzosim> Menu->Accessories-> WOW no command prompt!?
[06:05] <gonzoism> JesterJAG i'm just playing with you.  i'm not 3.  lol.    i'd be like a typing wizard at age 3 or something
[06:05] <gonzoism> JesterJAG get the terminal open ?
[06:05] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> This is Xubuntu*
[06:05] <brown_cat> O_O there is someone on our roof, seriously
[06:05] <jafoo0> scguy318: thanks, i'll try!!
[06:05] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> Found terminal under System->Terminal.  NOw open.
[06:05] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   ok.  i've never seen xubuntu.
[06:05] <nickrud> b33r: you using u2 ?
[06:05] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   ok.  do this,   ls /media/
[06:05] <danieldan> goinzoism: mmm Is a USB adapter "TP-LINK" the funny thing is that it detects the wirelles network but as if there wasn't any signal strength, and with a lock just next to it
[06:06] <b33r> nickrud, what's a "u2"?
[06:06] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> My problem is, Ubuntu wouldn't load.  /bin/sh error. :(  Had to use Xubuntu. :E
[06:06] <shifty-> anyone know of any program that is able to conncet to frontpage extensions?
[06:06] <nickrud> b33r: java 6u2
[06:06] <JesterJAG> gonzoism> "No such file or directory
[06:06] <tehgooch> quit
[06:07] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> ls just gives me "Desktop"
[06:07] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   ok, lets mount it,  sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt    (unless its a laptop, then try sda1)
[06:07] <Doc_Bio> hi kids...got a noob question for someone willing
[06:07] <JesterJAG> Gonsoism> Working on mounting.
[06:07] <b33r> nickrud, java version "1.6.0"
[06:07] <Doc_Bio> what the hell is the unix command for adding a computer account.
[06:07] <jafoo0> doc_bio: adduser
[06:07] <nickrud> b33r: that's the one in ubuntu ..
[06:08] <b33r> nickrud, yes
[06:08] <nickrud> b33r: that's the one you wanted? Not one of the later?
[06:08] <danieldan> can someone help me configuring my wireless i really need help (its a USB adapter)
[06:08] <docmur> Okay I have 2 soundcards 1 on my TV tunner, 1 Sound Blaster
[06:08] <Doc_Bio> yea....and with what extensions and isn't the computer name supposed to have a $ somewhere?
[06:08] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> "can't find dev/hda1/mnt"
[06:08] <b33r> nickrud, do I have to update java to update the jre? :/
[06:08] <docmur> the sound blaster alsa says is my 2nd card so not the default
[06:08] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   there is a space between hda1  and  /mnt
[06:08] <docmur> how do I set it to load the second card
[06:09] <revilodra1> how do i do a batch filename change?
[06:09] <danieldan> can someone help me configuring my wireless i really need help (its a USB adapter)
[06:09] <nickrud> b33r: the last release of the java 1.6.0 was in december. That's in Ubuntu. There's technology previews, which I assumed you meant when you said latest.
[06:09] <JesterJAG> Gonsoism>"Special device dev/hda1 does not exist"
[06:09] <revilodra1> how do i do a batch filename change?
[06:10] <danieldan> can someone help me configuring my wireless i really need help (its a USB adapter)
[06:10] <kahrytan> revilodra1, there is package in repo for it
[06:10] <revilodra1> danieldan: what do u need?
[06:10] <JesterJAG> Gonsoim>This was so easy in ubuntu... Would it be easier to get Ubuntu loading past the /bin/sh error?
[06:10] <revilodra1> kahrytan: do u know what its called?
[06:10] <b33r> nickrud, I want this jre jre-6u2-linux-i586.bin
[06:10] <kahrytan> I dont remember it
[06:10] <kahrytan> but I know there is one

[06:11] <nickrud> b33r: that's what I said, u2. Ok we're still on the same page, just bounced a bit
[06:11] <gonzoism> revilodra1   for i in $('WHATEVER_COMMAND_LISTS_THE_FILES_YOU_WANT'); do mv $i newname ; done         you can use $i.newname   to use $i for a base name.
[06:11] <revilodra1> kahrytan: renameutils? cos i installed that and i cant see where its gone?
[06:11] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   did ya try sda1 too ?  go ahead and try that
[06:11] <b33r> nickrud, so what should I do know? lol
[06:11] <danieldan> revildodral: problem is I just bought this thing... it recognizes the wireless network, but as if it didnt have any signal strength and with a lock next to it, i really dont know what to do
[06:11] <JesterJAG> Gonsoism> Also, while your still helping me: Thank you for your help.
[06:12] <nickrud> b33r: one more sec
[06:12] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> Negative.  Trying sda1 now.
[06:12] <revilodra1> gonzoism: so i cd to the folder then do the 'mv $i newname ?
[06:12] <b33r> nickrud, ok thanks for ur time ;d
[06:12] <kahrytan> revilodra1, bulk rename and in add/remove
[06:12] <amidaniel> danieldan: Is it a secured network? When you try to connect to it does it prompt you for a key?
[06:12] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> Same error for sda1
[06:12] <nickrud> b33r: silly question. You did install the deb that jpkg made, right?
[06:12] <revilodra1> kahrytan:  thanks!
[06:12] <b33r> nickrud, yes
[06:12] <gonzoism> JesterJAG ok.  see me in the /query  the pm ?
[06:13] <kahrytan> revilodra1, I ran across it while looking througbh add/remove
[06:13] <b33r> nickrud, the make-jpkg jre-6u2-linux-i586.bin
[06:13] <b33r> then*
[06:13] <kahrytan> revilodra1, http://thunar.xfce.org/index.html
[06:13] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> No and when I tried to query you, I was told there was a spam block.. Oh there you are now.
[06:13] <soskel> hey
[06:13] <soskel> can I email mark shuttleworth?
[06:13] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> When I type to you: "private messages from unregistered users are currently blocked due to spam problems, but you can always message a staffer. Please register! "
[06:14] <amidaniel> JesterJAG: You need to identify to nickserv to send pms .. with /msg nickserv identify <pass>
[06:14] <danieldan> amidaniel: yeahits my router that has WEP key and I have it but nothing works
[06:14] <gonzoism> JesterJAG  that is you
[06:14] <gonzoism> JesterJAG   that is ok.
[06:14] <amidaniel> JesterJAG: Or, rather, register your nick with /msg nickserver register <pass>
[06:14] <gonzoism> jesterjag  um.  you got to find the hard drives in the computer.  they will be labeled.
[06:14] <scguy318> JesterJAG: /ns register pass i think
[06:15] <amidaniel> danieldan: "nothing works" ... what does it do when you select the network from network manager?
[06:15] <gonzoism> danieldan   do you use iwconfig to set up the wireless, and then dhclient3 or dhcpcd to set up the ip and stuff ?
[06:15] <nickrud> b33r: /usr/lib/j2re1.6-sun/bin/java
[06:15] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> Perhaps make a new IRC channel to treat as a PM?
[06:15] <gonzoism> jesterjag  ok  /join #gonzoism
[06:15] <JesterJAG> Gonzoism> Treat as /Query*
[06:15] <nickrud> b33r: that's the one to choose
[06:15] <taime1> how do i get proper resolutions after installing the nvidia driver?
[06:16] <danieldan> gonzoism: dhcp "that wrks in another laptop i have"
[06:16] <b33r> nickrud, but there isn't this option :/
[06:16] <arang2> guys anyone has made this work? Vmware workstation/player and VirtualBox both installed in the same machine??
[06:16] <danieldan> amidaniel: and it jost says "conexion failed"
[06:16] <lullis> taimel, you got a LCD screen?
[06:16] <taime1> nope
[06:17] <nickrud> b33r: did you sudo dpkg -i  on the deb that the make-jpkg created?
[06:17] <amidaniel> danieldan: Can you pls pastebin an iwconfig
[06:17] <amidaniel> ?
[06:17] <dblackburn> hi please explain pptp. please.
[06:17] <dblackburn> and scratch my head
[06:17] <lullis> Do you know your way around /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[06:17] <nickrud> b33r: looking back I don't think I explicitly said to do that, sorry
[06:17] <taime1> yes
[06:17] <b33r> nickrud, no I didn't
[06:17] <danieldan> amidaniel: ok.. can you send me the page to pastebin please i had it but dont really remember please send me a link
[06:17] <lullis> What resolution shows there?
[06:17] <dblackburn> pptp oh my god
[06:18] <nickrud> b33r: there you go, I skipped a step. Sorry
[06:18] <dblackburn> I love protocols
[06:18] <nickrud> b33r: it's in the same directory
[06:18] <amidaniel> !pastebin | danieldan
[06:18] <ubotu> danieldan: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:18] <b33r> it automaticaly ran the created file
[06:18] <taime1> geez, everything from 1600x1200 to 800x600
[06:18] <b33r> after make-jpkg
[06:18] <nickrud> b33r: no, it created a deb that you can then install.
[06:19] <b33r> ok let me try
[06:19] <lullis> What is the resolution that you want to work? Put that as the first option and restart the X server. Usually, that works.
[06:19] <taime1> no, i have done all of this
[06:20] <b33r> nickrud, this file sun-j2re1.6_1.6.0+update2_i386.deb?
[06:20] <nickrud> b33r: yes
[06:20] <taime1> i remember it having something to do with the order i installed the driver and whence i reconfigured x
[06:20] <lullis> Did you installed the driver, enabled it at Administration-> Restricted Driver Manager   ?
[06:20] <jafoo00> I forgot who helped me and lead me to getting supergrub, but looks like i can boot windows again :D!!!
[06:20] <jafoo00> (THANKS!)
[06:20] <taime1> yeah
[06:20] <danieldan> amidaniel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36398/
[06:20] <scguy318> jafoo00: np
[06:21] <jafoo00> ahh yes.. scguy.. thanks!!
[06:21] <b33r> nickrud, Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_02-b05) :D
[06:21] <nickrud> b33r: sorry about skipping that step, probably caused you more sweat than necessary
[06:21] <lullis> I'm sorry I can't help you more. I did have some trouble with it, but I fixed by setting the resolution in xorg.conf
[06:21] <b33r> nickrud, lol no problem thanks <3
[06:22] <lullis> I still need some help to set up sound correctly, though. :)
[06:22] <amidaniel> danieldan: ermkay .. can you click on the network manager applet and select "Manual configuration" from the menu
[06:22] <nickrud> b33r: yw. And, this new java fits properly into your system, and can be uninstalled cleanly when a new one comes up. And, if it's buggy, you can update-alternative to an older one in seconds.
[06:22] <Distort13> how do i revert to an older version of wine?? sorry if a newbie question
[06:22] <danieldan> amidaniel: yes
[06:23] <b33r> nickrud, thanks got it
[06:23] <Distort13> i have 0.9.44 and want to go back to 0.9.43
[06:23] <lullis> And I'm also using a mobo with a nVidia chipset. I am out of ideas to make my mic work in Ubuntu X86_64.
[06:23] <scguy318> Distort: uninstall the wine package, download the older package from http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/
[06:23] <scguy318> DIstort: install with sudo dpkg -i
[06:23] <amidaniel> danieldan: select eth1 from the list and hit preferences
[06:23] <lullis> Not to mention that the sound server breaks from time to time, and I have to restart.
[06:23] <gehacktes> huhu
[06:23] <lullis> restart Alsa.
[06:25] <gehacktes> weiss jemand vo ich bei ubuntu die desktp icon grsse ndern kann? eins von mir zb ist mega gross das andere sau klein das sieht recht lustig aus ^
[06:25] <danieldan> amidaniel: ok done then??
[06:26] <kahrytan> lullis, Should have gotten intel chipset?
[06:26] <amidaniel> gehacktes: Das kannst du bearbeiten, glaub ich, under System / Preferences / Theme
[06:26] <zenmonk> how do you start a stopped process again?
[06:26] <amidaniel> danieldan: Is roaming mode selected?
[06:26] <amidaniel> for that device^
[06:27] <cori_> having trouble with compiz-fusion . looking for help
[06:27] <danieldan> amidaniel: actually no!... i configured it just as I did before in another laptop...
[06:27] <lullis> kahrytan, let's not get into a "my gear is better than your gear" type of discussion, ok?
[06:28] <amidaniel> danieldan: Oh, okay, try enabling that and then restart nm-applet ... I find that's typically a must for wireless cards
[06:28] <amidaniel> Unless you're only going to be on one network
[06:28] <Adlai> zenmonk: stopped with ctrl-Z ?
[06:28] <zenmonk> Adlai: yes
[06:28] <Adlai> bg to restart it in the background, fg to restart it in the foreground
[06:28] <lullis> I bet that if I installed my old copy of windows XP, I wouldn't have any issues. :P
[06:29] <danieldan> amidaniel: ammm how do i do that???
[06:29] <zenmonk> Adlai: thanks :)
[06:29] <Adlai> lullis: apart from the issue of having windows XP on your computer
[06:29] <Adlai> zenmonk: sure
[06:29] <b33r> nickrud, one more thing how do I add it in java control panel? it's still shows the 1.6.0 there
[06:29] <zenmonk> Adlai: you call it by pid, right?
[06:29] <Adlai> zenmonk: no, just type (b|f)g
[06:30] <Adlai> maybe you can specify the pid, I've never tried
[06:30] <zenmonk> Adlai: but what if you had more than one task stopped?
[06:30] <lullis> Adlai: yeah. But with Emacs + cygwin + Firefox, I had a good life.
[06:30] <Adlai> zenmonk: you probably can, check the man pages or something
[06:31] <lullis> Thing is, it is a new computer and I didn't use anything that was Windows-specific, so I thought about going back to a linux-only machine.
[06:31] <amidaniel> danieldan: From preferences on eth1 under nm ... it should restart automatically once you apply the changes, but if it doesn't, nuke it from top or system monitor
[06:32] <SilentDis> hello :)
[06:32] <danieldan> amidaniel: ok ill try and ill beback in a sec
[06:32] <danieldan> thanks
[06:32] <SilentDis> anyone know a good pppd/EVDO client for Gnome?  knet looks like it'll suffice for me under KDE, but the parents run gnome, and it needs to be simple for them hehe
[06:33] <nickrud> b33r: it says build 1.6.0_02-b05 on mine
[06:34] <b33r> nickrud, mine doesn't ;o
[06:34] <zenmonk> #archlinux
[06:34] <zenmonk> oops, sry
[06:35] <nickrud> b33r: edit the launcher to launch /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.02/bin/ControlPanel
[06:35] <b33r> nickrud, do u mind telling me how to edit it? :$
[06:36] <nickrud> b33r: right click the application bar

[06:39] <RenatoSilva> How do I remove nautilus' splash screen that appears at logon?
[06:39] <nomasteryoda> gppp?
[06:39] <jafoo00> scguy: HELLLL YEAHH!!! repaired the MBR and activated the boot partition. w00t w00t!
[06:39] <SilentDis> dfgas: if there is no /dev/video0, you can always just sudo ln -s /dev/video1 /dev/video0
[06:39] <cschauer> '/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off' anyone know what i can do about this?
[06:39] <LDS_Trooper> How can I modify the ALT+RMB shortcut?
[06:39] <scguy318> jafoo00: :D
[06:39] <Evanlec> how do i tell what filesystem a partition has via terminal??
[06:40] <scguy318> cschauer: try booting with all_generic_ide?
[06:40] <scguy318> Evanlec: fdisk -l?
[06:40] <dfgas> SilentDis, scguy318, there is a video0, it is my tv card
[06:40] <cschauer> scguy318: sorry but, how do i do that?
[06:40] <Evanlec> scguy318, okay, i did that, so what does "Linux" mean
[06:40] <Evanlec> is that ext2 or ext3?
[06:40] <RenatoSilva> How do I remove nautilus' splash screen that appears at logon?
[06:40] <SilentDis> nomasteryoda: thanks, missed it there for a moment, checking it out now...
[06:41] <RenatoSilva> I already did it before but don't remember in no way
[06:41] <RenatoSilva> How do I remove nautilus' splash screen that appears at logon?
[06:41] <SilentDis> dfgas: doh, not sure then, haven't played with any vid editing in linux yet, sorry
[06:41] <ToddEDM2> hey guys,, is there a way i can reinstall grub?... i tried the link that the bot gave me.... now grub loads, but when i select ubuntu, i get error 17
[06:41] <scguy318> cschauer: using LiveCD?
[06:41] <cschauer> scguy318 installed with cd, cd is out
[06:41] <gogeta> ?
[06:41] <scguy318> cschauer: you could go into your menu.1st and edit boot options
[06:42] <Evanlec> scguy318, in fdisk, it only tells me my filesystem is "Linux"
[06:42] <scguy318> cschauer: i forgot wut keys u press in GRUB to let u enter boot options
[06:42] <scguy318> Evanlec: probably ext2/3 i guess
[06:42] <gogeta> evanlec whats up
[06:42] <Evanlec> hi
[06:42] <RenatoSilva> ToddEDM2: does error 17 have a description?
[06:42] <Evanlec> just trying to figure out if i formatted my partition wrong, using ext2 instead of ext3
[06:42] <RenatoSilva> How do I remove nautilus' splash screen that appears at logon?
[06:42] <RenatoSilva> How do I remove nautilus' splash screen that appears at logon?
[06:42] <ToddEDM2> no RenatoSilva
[06:42] <gogeta> cschauer e lets you edit
[06:43] <Evanlec> thats my '/
[06:43] <gogeta> renato you mean the auto login?
[06:43] <Adlai> RenatoSilva: you should wait a bit for someone to read your question and respond, before you ask again
[06:43] <SilentDis> nomasteryoda: appears they've renamed it to 'gnome-ppp'.  that works though, i should be able to bang away at it and make it go.  thanks :)
[06:43] <Adlai> giving more information about your current situation also helps
[06:43] <RenatoSilva> Adlai: ask u please :D
[06:43] <Evanlec> gogeta, any ideas?
[06:43] <b33r> nickrud, after I edit it do I simply close?
[06:43] <nickrud> b33r: yes
[06:44] <WONToN> evanlec, is the partition mounted?
[06:44] <nomasteryoda> SilentDis, np... sometimes helps to use wvdial to get a good .conf file to work from
[06:44] <Deucalion1> so, i am trying to get windows on a partition, for my tablet pc, and i have it formated to ntfs, but windows does not detect my HDD (laptop obviously)
[06:44] <Evanlec> WONToN, no, but it could be
[06:44] <gogeta> you can boot the cd go all the way to the partatner part slect maul and see if its ext3
[06:44] <WONToN> type mount
[06:44] <gogeta> by defult it is ext3
[06:44] <nomasteryoda> SilentDis,  i use wvdial with a verizon evdo card on this laptop in Ubuntu... works perfectly
[06:44] <b33r> nickrud, I edit the command: /usr/lib/j2re1.6-sun/bin/ControlPanel?
[06:44] <b33r> because it's not working ;/
[06:44] <warbler> Renatosilva: there's an option in gconf-editor to change that - apps-gnome-sessions
[06:45] <gogeta> rento what you mean disable the login
[06:45] <nickrud> b33r:  /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.02/bin/ControlPanel
[06:45] <LDS_Trooper> How can I modify the ALT+RMB shortcut?
[06:45] <RenatoSilva> ToddEDM2: I re-installed grub on Monday by running "grub-install --root-directory=/mysavedmenu.lst /dev/sda2"
[06:45] <gogeta> he can pass init 3 to the boot loader and it whiont start gdm at all
[06:45] <scguy318> rento: auto-login?
[06:45] <Evanlec> WONToN, okay its mounted
[06:45] <b33r> nickrud, that's where mine installed
[06:45] <WONToN> as, ?
[06:45] <b33r> nickrud, it's not in jvm I checked :/
[06:46] <Evanlec> WONToN, is mounted as /target
[06:46] <nickrud> b33r, ls /usr/lib/jvm:
[06:46] <WONToN> mount will show a bunch of junk about the mounted disk (fs type is one of them)
[06:46] <b33r> java-6-sun  java-6-sun-1.6.0.00
[06:47] <Evanlec> oh, i just did sudo mount <device> /target
[06:47] <Evanlec> but it didnt say anything
[06:47] <gogeta> just mount i think
[06:47] <Evanlec> aha!~
[06:47] <nomasteryoda> Evanlec, they meant just the command "mount" with no arguments...
[06:47] <Evanlec> thank you
[06:48] <scguy318> mount can auto-detect fs type I think
[06:48] <Evanlec> my next question, it appears i formatted my / as ext2, is it worth reformatting/installing to put ext3?
[06:48] <WONToN> evanlec, fyi, if you use mount -v it will be verbose about what it is doing
[06:48] <RenatoSilva> gogeta: no!
[06:48] <Adlai> Evanlec: yes
[06:48] <Megaqwerty> Evanlec: you don't have to reformat to do it
[06:48] <tyoc> hey people, I still getting GRUB error 21, and I have tried the 2 methods in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows thought I dont know of a way to make a "proof"
[06:48] <Evanlec> no?
[06:48] <Megaqwerty> Evanlec: you just need to add a journal.
[06:49] <Evanlec> i can keep all data?
[06:49] <Megaqwerty> Evanlec: Yep
[06:49] <gogeta> well rento what you whant
[06:49] <Evanlec> sweet, how? lol
[06:49] <Megaqwerty> Evanlec: I don't remember the command...hold on
[06:49] <Evanlec> kk
[06:49] <flodine> can someone tell how to replace the ubuntu logo back to gnome foot in the taskbar please.
[06:49] <gogeta> to change its theme?
[06:49] <RenatoSilva> gogeta: I've customized ubuntu's visual to look blue, and that splash screen from nautilus right after logon is annoying
[06:49] <gogeta> ahhh
[06:49] <taime1> i installed an nvidia driver, and i cant get my higher resolutions back. what did i do wrong?
[06:49] <tonyyarusso> !menuicon | flodine
[06:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about menuicon - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:49] <scguy318> taime1: sudo nvidia-settings?
[06:49] <tonyyarusso> hrm
[06:49] <tonyyarusso> !menulogo
[06:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about menulogo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:50] <nickrud> b33r: yet you see the update 2 when you version java
[06:50] <taime1> havent used that yet
[06:50] <flodine> tonyyarusso
[06:50] <flodine> yes
[06:50] <b33r> nickrud, worked when I added a new item
[06:50] <b33r> nickrud, but kinda slow
[06:50] <gogeta> you need to install a theme of blue then
[06:50] <scguy318> taime1: sudo nvidia-settings is prob worth a shot
[06:50] <mrgigabyte> taimel: was it the real nvidia driver with the nvidia settings manager?
[06:50] <gogeta> to change that
[06:50] <nickrud> b33r: added a new item, new menu item?
[06:50] <b33r> nickrud, yeah
[06:51] <navid> i have wine installed, well it ifnished installing but i cant find it
[06:51] <navid> isnt it suppose to be in home/user/ as .wine ?
[06:51] <b33r> nickrud, but when I change the existing one it didn't work
[06:51] <Nutubuntu> Firefox or Swiftweasel repeatedly segfault for me. For SW, strace shows it's looking for something in .mozilla/init.d/ at the end. That directory doesn't exist. What's going on? (Or more likely, how can I figure this out?)
[06:51] <scguy318> navid: ~/.wine
[06:51] <RenatoSilva> warbler: gotcha!!!!!!!
[06:51] <Megaqwerty> Evanlec: http://www.math.ucla.edu/~jimc/documents/convert2ext3.html
[06:51] <navid> no such file or directory
[06:51] <slken> hey guys ... can somebody help me. i got ubuntu server running. enabled remote desktop connections from outside PCs ... but when i tried to connect ... i'm stopped ... how can i open the firewall on the port?
[06:51] <tonyyarusso> flodine: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=167658
[06:51] <Nutubuntu> Sorry, ~/.mozilla etc
[06:51] <nickrud> b33r: odd. Probably worth having both, anyway
[06:51] <scguy318> navid: u do winecfg first?
[06:52] <mrgigabyte> Taimel: scguy has a good suggestion.. the other is to manually edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to look like your backup version of xorg.conf in the video settings  section
[06:52] <navid> winecfg
[06:52] <navid> Not sure
[06:52] <flodine> tonyyarusso that works only for the old ubuntu
[06:52] <navid> no i didnt
[06:53] <Megaqwerty> Evanlec: second source: http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/ext2toext3.htm#_two2three
[06:53] <tonyyarusso> flodine: how so?

[06:53] <b33r> nickrud, should I set java parameters to -Xmx256M?
[06:53] <Megaqwerty> Evanlec: go with the second one, it looks easier to follow
[06:53] <Evanlec> Megaqwerty, thank you vry much
[06:54] <Megaqwerty> Evanlec: happy to oblige
[06:54] <flodine> tonyyarusso look at the date and have you tried it
[06:54] <slken> can somebody help me with my remote desktop question up above?
[06:54] <tyoc> people, hre is my thread with a more complete explanation about my problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=543065
[06:54] <navid> im downloading: winecfg-may-final release, should fix it
[06:54] <nickrud> b33r: That's gonna depend on your needs, or the needs of what you run. I'm not a java expert.
[06:54] <tonyyarusso> flodine: Nothing about those instructions should be specific.  What's the problem?
[06:55] <navid> whats the quickest way to get winecfg,
[06:55] <b33r> nickrud, ok thanks for your help
[06:55] <flodine> tonyyarusso i just want the old gnome foot print
[06:55] <amidaniel> b33r: It depends upon what you're running .. if you're running an app that needs 256M of memory, then by all means
[06:55] <nickrud> b33r: luck. Check the game site, I'm sure someone has racked java hard to find the right settings ;)
[06:55] <Megaqwerty> slken: I believe sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 3101 -j ACCEPT  is the command, substitute 3101 for the port you want to open
[06:55] <amidaniel> Most java apps run fine on far less, though
[06:55] <gogeta> slken ubutu has no firewall to open
[06:55] <tonyyarusso> flodine: I know.
[06:55] <Megaqwerty> gogeta: ubuntu does have a firewall
[06:55] <gogeta> sence when
[06:55] <Megaqwerty> gogeta: for quite some time
[06:55] <flodine> tonyyarusso so the two was to do it here whats the best way
[06:55] <tonyyarusso> !firewall | gogeta
[06:55] <ubotu> gogeta: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[06:56] <gogeta> the old one didnt
[06:56] <RenatoSilva> warbler: thank u very much!!!
[06:56] <Megaqwerty> slken: It's had it since at least Dapper Drake
[06:56] <b33r> nickrud, lol dude I asked for support and clearly said I'm on ubuntu with firefox they answered with IE help ;D
[06:56] <tonyyarusso> gogeta: Linux has always had firewalling, afaik.  Definitely Ubuntu always has.
[06:56] <gogeta> ahhh
[06:56] <nickrud> lol.
[06:56] <gogeta> ubuntu didnt for a wile
[06:56] <RenatoSilva> warbler: gconf-editor is the only place where we can config this?
[06:56] <amidaniel> tonyyarusso: That's news to me
[06:56] <nickrud> b33r: about 1% of the hits on my web sites come from linux
[06:57] <RenatoSilva> renato: hi xar
[06:57] <Nectr0n> hello all
[06:57] <slken> lol .... i would think it does ... how can i vnc into my ubuntu box?
[06:57] <tonyyarusso> amidaniel: it's right there in the kernel - pretty much how things work
[06:57] <gogeta> it should be open
[06:57] <b33r> nickrud, O.o what site? :P
[06:57] <Megaqwerty> gogeta: it probably did and you just didn't notice :-\
[06:57] <b33r> sites*
[06:57] <gogeta> i have no problem using vnc on my frends kubuntu setup
[06:57] <amidaniel> tonyyarusso: Early versions of ubuntu surely didn't have a built-in firewall though
[06:57] <nickrud> b33r: but you'd think they would have heard of firefox by now
[06:58] <tonyyarusso> amidaniel: sure they did - why do you think not?
[06:58] <Megaqwerty> slken: you need to go to System>Preferences>Remote Desktop
[06:58] <gogeta> what vnc you using
[06:58] <taime1> i cant get a resolution higher than 800x600 after installing nvidia driver. i have used nvidia-settings, but still, nothing. what am i doing wrong?
[06:59] <slken> gogeta ... realvnc ... i connected in ... but i got a black screen!
[06:59] <weazzle> you can manually modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add resolutions
[06:59] <taime1> the resolutions are there
[06:59] <gogeta> so connecting no display
[06:59] <taime1> but its not making use of them
[06:59] <Megaqwerty> slken: I've had that problem before...I'll try to see how I fixed it
[06:59] <Nutubuntu> amidaniel, "Technically speaking, Ubuntu does include a firewall " -- from that link
[06:59] <mrgigabyte> taimel: can you post your xorg.conf?
[07:00] <gogeta> in realvnc dont you need to set the display
[07:00] <gogeta> so 1.1.1.1/1
[07:00] <taime1> i just uninstalled the driver
[07:00] <taime1> i can reinstall and be back
[07:00] <amidaniel> hrm ....
[07:00] <tonyyarusso> amidaniel: That's a GUI firewall management interface only.  The firewall itself was always there.
[07:01] <amidaniel> Hrm .. perhaps. I just recall a hubhub about earlier ubuntus not having any firewall built in
[07:01] <tonyyarusso> That's crazy talk.
[07:01] <amidaniel> But anyway .. I'm off to hop in the hot tub :D ... bbiab
[07:01] <Nutubuntu> Maybe someone misunderstood what a firewall is, and declared their (mis)understanding in print. Happens...
[07:01] <Megaqwerty> gogeta: the syntax is ipaddress:0 or ipaddress:1 isn't it?
[07:01] <amidaniel> Could be
[07:02] <gogeta> oh lol
[07:02] <Nutubuntu> Hot tub sounds good :) wish I had one
[07:02] <gogeta> ok
[07:02] <gogeta> 1.1.1.1:1
[07:02] <gogeta> happy
[07:02] <gogeta> LOL
[07:02] <gogeta> and yes ir is
[07:02] <gogeta> been using tight vnc to mutch
[07:02] <gogeta> just need ip
[07:03] <Megaqwerty>  !enter | gogeta
[07:03] <ubotu> gogeta: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:03] <scguy318> taime1: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[07:03] <gonzoism> that has got to be the most typed command in this channel.  :)
[07:04] <gogeta> lol
[07:04] <cschauer> '/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off'
[07:04] <cschauer> on generic and recovery mode
[07:04] <cschauer> fresh install
[07:04] <Megaqwerty> slken: sorry, I can't recall what I did to fix it. It's been a year since I had the problem
[07:05] <gogeta> slken well i use tight vnc no issues maybe you can try that
[07:05] <warnet> hay semua
[07:06] <jonli447_> hi guys.  I was wondering, do you guys happen to know of a version of zend optimizer that works with Feisty for ppc ?
[07:06] <gogeta> wtf is zend optimizer
[07:06] <gogeta> sounds useless
[07:07] <stmiller> zend optimizer ... ? Sound like it costs money
[07:07] <jonli447_> no, it's free
[07:07] <gogeta> wtf is it
[07:07] <mrgigabyte> http://www.zend.com/products/zend_optimizer/?engine=google&cmpg=optimizer&k_id=zend_optimizer
[07:07] <Megaqwerty> gogeta: please be polite.
[07:07] <gogeta> that waz
[07:07] <gogeta> LOl
[07:07] <mrgigabyte> The Zend Optimizer is a free application that runs the files encoded by the Zend Guard, while enhancing the performance of PHP applications.
[07:08] <gogeta> ?
[07:08] <stmiller> I think someone mentioned an older version of this zend app existed for PPC Linux.
[07:08] <jonli447_> been searching for hours for one that works w/ php-5.2.1 and ppc feisty
[07:08] <Megaqwerty> jonli447_: is it in the ubuntu repositories?
[07:08] <Nutubuntu> Why would Swiftweasel (Firefox) be trying to open /home/my-home-dir/.mozilla/swiftweasel/init.d ... and crash when it can't?
[07:08] <jonli447_> yeah, the latest one I coulf find is 3.0.1, and only supports php-5.1.x
[07:09] <jonli447_> no, I don't believe it's in the repo
[07:09] <gogeta> why even bother with it
[07:09] <jonli447_> the zend memory engine is part of php itself
[07:09] <jonli447_> because I have an application that is encoded w/ zend
[07:09] <Megaqwerty> jonli447_: I was going to say that if it's in the repo but i386, you could build it from source using the ubuntu build environment
[07:09] <jonli447_> and my server is a ppc box running fiesty, gogata :-)
[07:10] <stmiller> Weird. Zend supports Solaris, OS X PPC, FreeBSD, AIX, everything but PowerPC Linux is not listed.
[07:10] <jonli447_> yeah, and it's closed source unfortunately
[07:10] <Megaqwerty> jonli447_: ah, therein lies the problem :(
[07:10] <mrgigabyte> Hmm I thought They stopped supporting PPC in Feisty? Wheres the Repo?
[07:10] <gvsa123> is there a better PDF application for gnome?
[07:10] <Nutubuntu> gvsa123, better than what?
[07:11] <Megaqwerty> gvsa123: evince?
[07:11] <gvsa123> Nutubuntu: than the one that's preinstalled
[07:11] <jonli447_> I guess zend decided to drop linux ppc support because Apple switched to Intell
[07:11] <gvsa123> Megaqwerty: that't what's installed by default right?
[07:11] <jonli447_> was hoping someone here might have installed it :-)
[07:11] <Megaqwerty> gvsa123: yeah
[07:11] <stmiller> mrgigabyte : still Ubuntu for powerpc https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCDownloads
[07:11] <Nutubuntu> gvsa123, better than the one that's preinstalled to do what? read them? create them? what?
[07:11] <Flannel> mrgigabyte: Its no longer officially supported, community still supports it.  cdimages.ubuntu.com has CDs
[07:11] <Flannel> er, cdimage
[07:11] <mrgigabyte> stmiller: TYVM
[07:11] <Nutubuntu> n/m
[07:12] <gvsa123> Megaqwerty: more options like annotation tools, viewing bookmarks,
[07:12] <m0u5e> omg i'm kinda embarrassed to say this... but vista has exceeded my expectations... (albeit they were very low ones)
[07:12] <gvsa123> Megaqwerty: ay... they're called index... pffft
[07:12] <Megaqwerty> gvsa123: I don't know. Evince has always worked fine for me...and on the rare occasion it doesn't I have kpdf installed (it will run in gnome)
[07:13] <gvsa123> Megaqwerty: more features in kpdf?
[07:13] <mrgigabyte> Did someone drop the "V" Bomb?
[07:13] <Megaqwerty> gvsa123: iirc, yep
[07:13] <gvsa123> Megaqwerty: iirc?
[07:13] <Megaqwerty> gvsa123: if I remember correctly
[07:13] <scguy318> gvsa: if I recall correctly
[07:14] <gvsa123> oh... i have to get used to the irc jargon
[07:14] <gvsa123> sorry
[07:14] <Megaqwerty> gvsa123: It's okay we all had to learn it at some point ;)
[07:14] <bourne> hi, how do I make audacious open all MP3 files instead of Music Box.... setting audacious by default?
[07:14] <Megaqwerty> bourne: right click an mp3 file and go to properties.
[07:14] <gvsa123> Megaqwerty: i know... good thing xchat automatically connects to #ubuntu... didn't even know how to that before... lol
[07:14] <Megaqwerty> bourne: the option is in one of the tabs...can't remember which
[07:15] <gvsa123> Thanks thanks...
[07:15] <bourne> oh ok
[07:15] <bourne> I just got it...
[07:15] <bourne> Open With... (selection)
[07:16] <george> has anyone been able to get Beryl to work with an ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M card?
[07:16] <KurtKraut> george: yes... thru Xgl
[07:16] <CoasterMaster> george: what KurtKraut said
[07:16] <george> KurtKraut, did you follow a specific how-to?
[07:17] <KurtKraut> george: I can't remember... but I found one that seems correct to me
[07:17] <user28> hai..........
[07:17] <george> might you have it saved in your bookmarks?
[07:17] <george> I searched google for nearly a half hour.
[07:17] <KurtKraut> george: I'm searching for you right now
[07:18] <george> thank you
[07:18] <CoasterMaster> george: these might help http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager
[07:18] <Geoffrey2> I'm trying to build an updated version of gnash, and during configure, I'm seeing a message that my version of libcurl doesn't support the RTMP protocol...anyone know how to provide that support?
[07:18] <fujin> Anyone know howto configure snmptrapd?
[07:18] <KurtKraut> george: do you have the proprietary ATI river running ?
[07:18] <george> I'm not sure.
[07:18] <george> glxinfo|grep vendor? I'm assuming?
[07:19] <scguy318> george: yeah prob
[07:19] <KurtKraut> george: what this command prompts to you ? OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. ?
[07:19] <CoasterMaster> george: System -> administration -> restricted driver manager
[07:19] <george> server glx vendor string: SGI
[07:19] <george> client glx vendor string: SGI
[07:19] <george> OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
[07:19] <CoasterMaster> george: so you are not using the propritary ATI driver
[07:19] <Nutubuntu> Why would Swiftweasel (Firefox) be trying to open /home/my-home-dir/.mozilla/swiftweasel/init.d ... and crash when it can't?
[07:20] <KurtKraut> george: You have to first make ATI propriery driver working. And then https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Xgl
[07:20] <fujin> anyone, snmptrapd?
[07:20] <scguy318> george: you can either do Restricted Driver Manager or Envy
[07:20] <scguy318> george: make sure to backup xorg.conf and be able to restore if X server feils
[07:20] <Megaqwerty>  !envy | george scguy318
[07:20] <ubotu> george scguy318: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[07:20] <george> enabling the restricted driver now.

[07:21] <george> yes, on a Dell with an NVidia card.
[07:21] <user28> i'll help U penney
[07:21] <penney> I believe my MythTV SQL DB is broken...
[07:21] <george> this is an HP, with the ATI 200M

[07:22] <KurtKraut> george: I have a HP too :P What model ? I have a hp6040
[07:22] <george> DV5000
[07:22] <penney> user28: :(
[07:22] <penney> user28: is there anyway to reset my DB?
[07:22] <george> got to restart
[07:22] <dew> evening all.... I've got a question regarding the minimize all button....
[07:23] <KurtKraut> george: anyway... the wiki I gave you should be enough after installing and properly running the ATI restricted driver
[07:23] <cj> dew: there's a minimize all button!?
[07:23] <taime1> http://pastehere.com/?onurnr  i cannot get a higher resolution than 800x600... what gives??
[07:23] <scguy318> cj: yes
[07:23] <Flannel> cj: bottom left corner is "show desktop"
[07:23] <user28> :( sorry, i don't know what is DB?
[07:23] <dew> cj... LoL
[07:23] <cj> hey, look.  it makes things go away...
[07:23] <cj> does it get bound to windows-d?
[07:23] <scguy318> user28: he's asking about his MythTV DB
[07:23] <KurtKraut> user28: a 'database' probably
[07:23] <cj> no
[07:23] <penney> user28: The mySQL DB that mythTV installs?
[07:23] <dew> Is there a way to get that to ignore certain windows?
[07:24] <cj> dew: there's always a way.  you've got the source, after all :)
[07:24] <cj> dew: I doubt there's a stock way, though, no
[07:24] <dew> cj... I'm aware of that, but I wouldn't even have the slightest clue to look for it though.
[07:24] <danielronin> can anyone here assist me in installing a slackware based distro alongside fiesty?
[07:25] <user28> :( sorry, I still don't know. oya, where U come from, I come from indonesia.
[07:25] <KurtKraut> danielronin: the slackers should be more expert on this than the ubuntu guys. This is really a slack issue
[07:25] <penney> user28: NW US
[07:25] <KurtKraut> danielronin: nothing have to be changed in Ubuntu to do that.
[07:25] <Nutubuntu> dew ... set the windows you want to keep to be present on all desktops, and the ones you want to "minimize" to be present "this desktop only" ... then just switch desktops
[07:25] <penney> well crapy I guess I'll go look some more
[07:26] <user28> it's my 1st chat
[07:26] <penney> kk
[07:26] <danielronin> well i pretty much just need some help configuring grub
[07:26] <dedi> i have a gigabit port on my nfroce3 250gb chispet motherboard, but it will only run with 100mbit. what can i do to fix it?
[07:26] <danielronin> i'm trying to install a live cd to my hdd, but it's lilo based
[07:26] <danielronin> (i know not to write MBR)
[07:26] <user28> are U a student?
[07:26] <scguy318> dedi: you need to hook up your card to something that supports 1 Gbit
[07:27] <dew> Well, I should be a bit more specific, I guess.... I'm trying to keep my screenlets on the desktop... currently, whenever I hit CTRL-ALT-D or press the minimize all button, they minimize along with it.
[07:27] <KurtKraut> user28: type the name of the person you're talking to before your questions
[07:27] <dedi> scguy318: my switch only shows 100mbit
[07:27] <Nutubuntu> dew, sry, screenlets?
[07:27] <macd> dedi, does ifconfig show it as 100 or 1000?
[07:27] <KurtKraut> dedi: probably your switch only supports 100mbit
[07:28] <macd> dedi, yeah that was my next question is your switch gig capable
[07:28] <KurtKraut> dedi: the 1gbit ones are quite expensive and rare in home devices.
[07:28] <dew> nutubuntu.... yep.  Screenlets.  They're like gDesklets.
[07:28] <gogeta> danielronin: the cd should make a new one for you
[07:28] <WONToN> penny #mythtv-users
[07:28] <Nutubuntu> dew ... if you move from one workspace (or desktop) to another, are they present? maybe that would serv
[07:28] <dedi> macd dows ifconfig show that?
[07:29] <dedi> i have a gigabit cable and its working with my second computer
[07:29] <KurtKraut> dedi: no, you have to check your switch manual.
[07:29] <macd> dedi, no I wasnt really thinking when I said that
[07:29] <user28> :( sorry penney, my english was too bad, its my way to learn english. bay
[07:29] <Claudee> helpppppppppp
[07:29] <Claudee> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=543349
[07:29] <gogeta> help what
[07:29] <dew> nutubuntu... yeah, they are stuck to the desktop.  It would work that way, but IMO it's a cop out that way.  I'd much rather have them there when I minimize.
[07:30] <macd> dedi, what does lspci list as your network interface, and have you tried using a different cable?
[07:30] <gogeta> claudee have you checked your roughter settings
[07:30] <KurtKraut> Claudee: you need to make a greater description of your current settings in your post. For instance, is your 'file server' in your LAN or over the internet ?
[07:30] <gogeta> calaudee or power cycling your modem
[07:31] <dedi> macd it lists only as nVidia Corporation CK8S Ethernet Controller (rev a2) - and yes, tried diffrent cable. have some expensive 1gbit specified cables
[07:31] <Nutubuntu> dew ... it's like the mom whose newborn baby has a cold ... doctor says give him warm bath, let him air dry; she says eek, he'll catch pneumonia; doctor says, yes ... and THAT we know how to cure. I can't tell you how to keep your screenlets when you show desktop ... but if changing desktops "works" ...?
[07:31] <gogeta> calaudee some cable/dsl modems will do that couse of the adress changes powercycling normaly fixes it
[07:32] <dew> nutubuntu... LoL  I understand.  I figured it was worth running by the people in here.
[07:32] <Crustacean-Bob> Anybody know where I can find an mp4 decoder for totem
[07:32] <dedi> Crustacean-Bob: try fddshow
[07:33] <macd> dedi, try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure network-manager' then plug your ethernet cable back in and see what happens
[07:33] <macd> dedi, also I assume you have tried different ports on the switch
[07:33] <Claudee> server is LAN
[07:34] <gogeta> LOL
[07:34] <gogeta> yea powercycle the modem
[07:34] <gogeta> bet it will work again
[07:34] <Claudee> k
[07:34] <Claudee> be back if it didnt work
[07:34] <Claudee> thanks
[07:34] <gogeta> just be in linux when you do
[07:34] <gogeta> LOL
[07:35] <areti> Anyone know of any tricks for using USB speakers? (e.g. to automatically change the default output for gstreamer/alsa when they are plugged in)?
[07:35] <Nutubuntu> dew, sure, maybe someone knows. I'm nutubuntu myself ;P
[07:36] <gogeta> cant you just slect them in the sound controle as usb speakers
[07:36] <dew> nutubuntu.... that's a flavor I've never heard of... what is?
[07:36] <Adlai> the window decorations provided by metacity are messed up...the icon that should be in the left is shifted to the right, and the title is truncated, as if the 'visible area' of the title bar started a bit to the right...and there are no __, [] , >< buttons
[07:36] <gogeta> i knoe my system has that option
[07:36] <Adlai> what might be causing this
[07:36] <Adlai> is there some process I should restart?
[07:36] <Nutubuntu> "nu tu ubuntu" = i'm a n00b with Ubuntu
[07:36] <gogeta> adlai try retsrarting x i guess
[07:36] <Megaqwerty> Adlai: try metacity --replace
[07:36] <Adlai> gogeta: nope
[07:37] <Adlai> Megaqwerty: nope
[07:37] <Adlai> tried both of those
[07:37] <Megaqwerty> Adlai: then maybe try switching themes?
[07:37] <Adlai> also tried that
[07:37] <overclucker> oh i thoought it was ubuntu using the 'nut' window system
[07:37] <gogeta> adjust display?
[07:37] <taime1> i cant get more than one resolution after installing nvidia driver, what am i doing wrong?? here is my xorg.conf: http://pastehere.com/?onurnr
[07:38] <blz777> hi, i just wanted to ask if someone had tried to play Fritz10 in ubuntu :)
[07:38] <overclucker> taimel, try asking what NVidia is doing wrong instead, lol
[07:38] <Nutubuntu> :)     I'm not as n00b as I used to be, but still pretty new to it. Right now I have a Firefox issue that's beginning to wear me down ...
[07:38] <gogeta> adlai are they just off center or cruppted?
[07:38] <dew> nutubuntu... LoL  I gotcha... what's the issue with firefox?
[07:39] <Nicark> taime1, what other resolutions do you want?
[07:39] <Nutubuntu> Swiftweasel (or Firefox) segfaults frequently. I strace it and it's trying to open /home/my-home-dir/.mozilla/swiftweasel/init.d ... it crashes when it can't
[07:39] <gogeta> nut we genrely just use the real firefox so i dont knoe
[07:40] <Megaqwerty> Nutubuntu: have you tried reinstalling it? Binary might be corrupted. (just a thought)
[07:40] <dew> nutubuntu.... hmmm interesting.
[07:40] <overclucker> nutubuntu, so your using 3rd party firefox
[07:40] <gogeta> the deban one
[07:40] <gogeta> swiftfox
[07:40] <taime1> Nicark: i want 1600x1200 and under, but i have listed them all, and now im trying it with just one listed. but no matter what i do, i only get 800x600
[07:40] <gogeta> they got forxed to rename some time ago
[07:40] <KurtKraut> Nutubuntu: Swiftweasel or Swiftfox are note too much stable
[07:40] <gogeta> but ubuntu comes with the ofical firefox
[07:40] <Nutubuntu> Megaqwerty, overclucker - was using the stock Ubuntu firefox, started seeing this segfault behavior, went to Swiftweasel and continued to see the same thing
[07:41] <dew> taime.. could it be that your monitor doesn't support those higher resolutions?  Or your card doesn't support them?
[07:41] <Nutubuntu> KurtKraut, true
[07:41] <Megaqwerty> Nutubuntu: ah. *shrugs* never had that problem before
[07:41] <Claudee> power cycling did nothing
[07:41] <gogeta> nut you got some kind of addons?
[07:41] <dew> nutubuntu.... I agree with others... have you tried re-installing?
[07:42] <gogeta> claudee so your internet is not working but your lan is?
[07:42] <Nicark> taime1, did you tried by writing those modes in your xorg.conf ?   Modes   "1680x1050" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[07:42] <Claudee> its not working in just ubuntu on this laptop
[07:42] <Claudee> its working in windows
[07:42] <Claudee> it was previously working and just stopped
[07:42] <gogeta> where you in linux when you powercycled
[07:43] <gogeta> wait
[07:43] <taime1> Nickark: yes.
[07:43] <gogeta> are you hibernating your windows install
[07:43] <Claudee> no
[07:43] <dew> BRB
[07:43] <gogeta> humm
[07:43] <revilodraw> exaile sometimes randomly disappears... y?
[07:43] <Nutubuntu> dew, yes, problem persisted through three revs of Firefox, if I'm counting right ... since I installed Feisty, in fact, on this newly built box. AMD64 X2, 32-bit Feisty ... I suspect it's something to do with the CPU and the kernel, but really that's a total guess. strace says it's trying to stat64 a nonexistent directory in ~/.mozilla when it segfaults
[07:43] <gogeta> have you checked your roughter
[07:44] <Nutubuntu> taime1, I don't see those other modes in the xorg.conf you posted, only 1024x768
[07:44] <gogeta> you said both wired and wireless are faling correct
[07:44] <Claudee> only in ubuntu on this laptop
[07:44] <taime1> Nutubuntu: i have had it both ways. the point is, i only get 800x600 resolution.
[07:44] <gogeta> best test is to plug modem directly into laptop powercycle it and boot into ubuntu
[07:45] <gogeta> if it still failes it is ubunntu
[07:45] <gogeta> we  will ahve to go from there
[07:45] <Nutubuntu> taime1, are the HorizSync and VertRefresh correct for your specific monitor?
[07:45] <Claudee> i have a combined router/modem
[07:45] <gogeta> still
[07:45] <river69> i forgot my login in my ubuntu box how do i retrieve my user name?
[07:45] <taime1> Nutubuntu: thats what it detected.
[07:45] <BlueXero> how do you use ASCII values on here? In windows it is alt, but what is it in Ubuntu?
[07:45] <gogeta> you can direct connect it
[07:46] <gogeta> it seems to me the roguhter is rejecting it
[07:46] <gogeta> but the test i said would conferm that or kill it
[07:46] <Nutubuntu> taime1, I'm not expert on this ... detected how? Have you checked published specifications for your monitor? If those two parms are wrong, things mightn't work too well
[07:47] <gogeta> claudee have you used ifup and ifdown commands and did they say anything
[07:47] <Claudee> no
[07:47] <taime1> Nutubuntu: these are the sync ranges from my previous configuration. the only thing that has changed is ubuntu detected the newer card, and had me install the nvidia-glx driver, rather than the legacy driver
[07:47] <Vicfred> hi all
[07:47] <Claudee> ill check those
[07:47] <gogeta> that lest you shutdown and turn on your nic
[07:47] <gogeta> like ifup eth0
[07:48] <gogeta> probly sodu as well
[07:48] <Claudee> k, brb
[07:48] <gogeta> lol isnt claudee on a roughter lol why isnt he using the other pc to chat
[07:48] <gogeta> alot easer
[07:49] <Evanlec> okay so i just booted into my new installation of feisty, but my user appears to have no admin rights in gnome
[07:49] <Evanlec> easy way to fix this?
[07:49] <gogeta> evanlec
[07:49] <overclucker> evanlec, yes and no
[07:49] <gogeta> ubuntu does not have a root account
[07:49] <gogeta> you use sudo
[07:49] <Evanlec> gah!
[07:49] <Evanlec> ya, i can run sudo commands
[07:50] <gogeta> if you whant a root console do sudo su
[07:50] <Evanlec> but how to get gnome to recognize me as root?
[07:50] <scguy318> gogeta: or sudo -s
[07:50] <overclucker> evanles if you need # then sudo su
[07:50] <Evanlec> or i mean, atleast admin
[07:50] <gogeta> any apps that need admin will propt
[07:50] <scguy318> gogeta: to get an app to run under root, sudo if console, gksudo if GUI
[07:50] <gogeta> and ask for your user password
[07:50] <Evanlec> but like, im missing tons of entries in system menu
[07:51] <Evanlec> cant even click add/remove under applications menu
[07:51] <gogeta> you can
[07:51] <Evanlec> its not there!
[07:51] <gogeta> ohh
[07:51] <gogeta> now thats not good
[07:52] <overclucker> evanlec, fresh install?
[07:52] <Evanlec> yes
[07:52] <Evanlec> manual install mind you
[07:52] <overclucker> try again
[07:52] <Nutubuntu> taime1, I'm baffled. what you posted looks fine to me, except for 1024x768 being the only mode for any of the display subsections   :/     I don't see why it's not working.
[07:52] <Evanlec> i probably messed something up
[07:52] <overclucker> yuo
[07:52] <overclucker> yup
[07:52] <Evanlec> lord, i've only spent about 67 hours doing this install
[07:52] <gogeta> why not use the live cd
[07:52] <chuy_max> is it possible to have 2 domains linked to one server?
[07:52] <overclucker> lol
[07:52] <Evanlec> because im running raid array
[07:52] <taime1> Nutubuntu: me needer
[07:53] <gogeta> then the alt cd
[07:53] <Evanlec> i dont understand, why cant i do a sudo command to create a new user with admin rights and then login to that??
[07:53] <overclucker> ensecure
[07:53] <Evanlec> the alt cd doesnt help me, i have to use dmraid package, which is not in ubuntu by default on any cd
[07:53] <overclucker> up to you though
[07:54] <Evanlec> why is it unsecure?
[07:54] <gogeta> well
[07:54] <gogeta> cant he just install the base desktop [ackage
[07:54] <gogeta> it should install anything hes missing
[07:54] <overclucker> have you ever used irc on root,
[07:54] <overclucker> ?
[07:54] <Evanlec> yea i know thats bad...
[07:54] <Evanlec> but im not talking about being root, im saying make a new user
[07:54] <Nutubuntu> Evanlec, dmraid?
[07:55] <gogeta> apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:55] <Evanlec> Nutubuntu, yes
[07:55] <gogeta> thats a full paackage
[07:55] <gogeta> same stuff on the cd
[07:55] <Evanlec> kk, i try
[07:55] <gogeta> but sence you installed your driver there to
[07:55] <fulio> anyone using the kiba dock?
[07:56] <Jordan_U> !anyone | fulio
[07:56] <ubotu> fulio: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:56] <Evanlec> doh, ubuntu-desktop is already latest version
[07:56] <gogeta> LOL
[07:56] <gogeta> cant try -f
[07:56] <fulio> does anyone use kiba docks?
[07:56] <gogeta> can
[07:56] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Then you have a full default Gnome Desktop ( Default for Ubuntu that is )
[07:56] <gogeta> lol but might brake it more
[07:56] <gogeta> he did a manul install
[07:57] <Evanlec> dude, im in terminal and all i get is $ instead of the usual evan@ubuntu$
[07:57] <Evanlec> what does that mean?
[07:57] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Did you get the system installed?
[07:57] <overclucker> ~/.bashrc
[07:57] <Evanlec> i THINk so...
[07:57] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Are you booted from your hard drive now?
[07:57] <Evanlec> its running isnt it?
[07:57] <ziggy> i need the room for Ubuntu effects please
[07:57] <Evanlec> yea...
[07:57] <gogeta> hoe bought using apt-get reinstall
[07:58] <Claudee> no success
[07:58] <gogeta> and the desktop package
[07:58] <KurtKraut> ziggy: just type /join #ubuntu-effects
[07:58] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Ok, and you just booted normally from grub, not in recovery mode?
[07:58] <ziggy> ty

[07:59] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, im logged in as the user i made "manually" following the FakeRaidHowTo guide
[07:59] <gogeta> claudee your fisr nic should be eth0
[07:59] <slicks_mage> can anyone here help me? im missing the libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2
[07:59] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Ok, what happens when you run startx ?

[08:00] <slicks_mage> can anyone here help me? im missing the libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2??
[08:01] <Nutubuntu> taime1, can you pastebin your current xorg.conf? the one you pastebinned before looks fine, I don't see a single thing wrong ... so it *should* work; it's bizarre that it does not. How is the current one different?
[08:01] <Claudee> gogeta, im using wireless
[08:01] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, try "sudo /etc/init.d/dgm restart"
[08:01] <gogeta> claudee how many nics that laptop have

[08:02] <Evanlec> oops, typo
[08:03] <fulio> i dont understand this command "Use "sudo make install" instead of "checkinstall"
[08:03] <yjwong> slicks_mage, that library should be found in /usr/lib
[08:03] <phoneguy509> anyone good with WI FI card install on feisty?
[08:04] <slicks_mage> ok so i need2 create a symbolic link somehow right? and if so how?
[08:04] <overclucker> evanlec sudo -version
[08:04] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Ask your question and if anyone can help they will
[08:05] <overclucker> evanlec sudo -version
[08:05] <Evanlec> okay, doing the restart gdm command just kicked me out into text
[08:05] <gunspoja> hello #ubuntu users
[08:05] <Evanlec> sudo -version no work
[08:06] <gunspoja> I want to use ubuntu on a usb memory stick, but I want to have 2 partitions on it: 1 for the OS and 1 for data (which should be readable by windows also).  how can this be done?
[08:06] <gogeta> ubuntu is to big
[08:06] <gogeta> for a memery stick
[08:06] <gunspoja> no its not
[08:06] <overclucker> evanlec, oops try man sudo
[08:06] <gunspoja> not if the memory stick is big enough ;)
[08:06] <binMonkey> is there an ubuntu wireless channel?
[08:06] <gogeta> bigger then 2 gigs
[08:07] <gunspoja> i have a webpage here that says you only need a 1gb memory stick, and mine is 2gb
[08:07] <phoneguy509> binmonkey.. need that too.. my wifi is hosed
[08:07] <gogeta> the install says 2 gigs minum
[08:07] <gunspoja> feisty install
[08:07] <Evanlec> sudo -v returns nothing...
[08:07] <gogeta> yep
[08:07] <binMonkey> phoneguy509: what's yours doing?
[08:07] <gunspoja> I'm going to put edgy on it
[08:07] <gunspoja> it must be smaller or something :/
[08:07] <overclucker> is there a sudo manpage?
[08:07] <gogeta> why not just use dsl
[08:07] <Evanlec> yes
[08:08] <Evanlec> and its long
[08:08] <Jordan_U> gogeta, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[08:08] <gunspoja> dsl = useless
[08:08] <overclucker> ok good
[08:08] <Evanlec> but -v is the version operator
[08:08] <gogeta> damm small linux
[08:08] <gunspoja> i tried it, its pathetic
[08:08] <phoneguy509> not working at all... almost like its not on.. minipci..
[08:08] <gunspoja> doesn't even work most of the time
[08:08] <phoneguy509> dell truemobile1400
[08:08] <gogeta> works finwe on my mp3 player/mass storage
[08:08] <gunspoja> I tried it on 3 different usb sticks, attempted to boot it on 4 different computers and something went majorly wrong every single time
[08:08] <binMonkey> phoneguy509: sorry.  i'm no help there.
[08:08] <gunspoja> whereas ubuntu is far more reliable in my opinion
[08:09] <gogeta> boots fine on my pc
[08:09] <pr100> since an update a few days ago my feisty box is mounting my mp3 player as read-only - how can I get it back to read/write?
[08:09] <phoneguy509> thanks... thinking i might go to vista on the laptop anyways..
[08:09] <gogeta> both threw the emu and nativ
[08:09] <gunspoja> gogeta, that doesn't really help me very much
[08:09] <Evanlec> Jordan_U, any other ideas? :(
[08:09] <gogeta> you need to give your drive a mbr
[08:09] <phoneguy509> love ubuntu opn the desktiop thiough
[08:09] <gogeta> ot dsl whont boot
[08:09] <gunspoja> gogeta: it boots the stick just fine
[08:09] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, I am not quite sure what you have right now :)
[08:09] <gogeta> well yout=r not gonna fit ubuntu on there even if you did
[08:10] <Evanlec> i think i have a case of...user created manually that doesnt have squat for rights
[08:10] <gogeta> you would have no space
[08:10] <binMonkey> i cannot connect to open/free wireless networks.  using bcm4318 card with ndiswrapper.  anyone have ideas?
[08:10] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Make sure that the computer is not connected to the internet, and since I am curious, even though you should never do this again... try sudo startx
[08:10] <gunspoja> gogeta: www.pendrivelinux.com begs to differ
[08:10] <Jordan_U> gogeta, It fits on a CD doesn't it?
[08:11] <gogeta> compressed
[08:11] <gunspoja> ubuntu 6.10 can apparently be booted from a 1gb usb drive
[08:11] <gogeta> it does
[08:11] <Evanlec> server is already active for display 0
[08:11] <Jordan_U> gogeta, Exactly, using squashFS
[08:11] <Evanlec> i already did sudo startx i believe
[08:11] <bauer> like to get PyChart on my ubuntu how do i do that
[08:11] <Jordan_U> gogeta, Which the guide I linked you to will give you instructions to do
[08:11] <overclucker> evaalic, are all menu optioins there?

[08:16] <gogeta> binmokey have you tryed using the networking config to rescan
[08:16] <gogeta> i dont think ubuntu does it auto
[08:16] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, "pgrep X"

[08:21] <evanlec> oh man, i buggered this install up
[08:21] <binMonkey> gogeta: if i iwconfig  essid and ap shouldn't those override home setup.
[08:21] <Jordan_U> evanlec, Might want to reconnect from screen so you can connect to irssi from another terminal later
[08:21] <Crustacean-Bob> Krammer can I apt-get acronis?
[08:21] <evanlec> Jordan_U, yea probly, ugh
[08:21] <slicks_mage> ne1 know how to get a wireless network connected via my pc? it doesn't show any networks in wireless assistant?
[08:21] <krammer> no google it
[08:21] <evanlec> Jordan_U, it appears im missing a lot of files or something, maybe i should just reinstall?
[08:21] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Do you know the chipset of your card?
[08:22] <gogeta> bin yea those are the new configs but you might have to bring the card down and back up for it to take effect
[08:22] <binMonkey> gogeta: or shouldn't wifi-radar connect to networks?
[08:22] <Jordan_U> evanlec, That would be giving up :)
[08:22] <slicks_mage> no jordan how would i find that out?
[08:22] <krammer> cannot connect to my router (wifi) so I tried to connect with ether cable and still no luck
[08:22] <binMonkey> gogeta: you mean ifdown/ifup?
[08:22] <gogeta> yea
[08:22] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, lspci, or System -> Preferences -> Hardware Information
[08:22] <evanlec> Jordan_U, i know, i nearly gave up on that fakeraidhowto thing, when i discovered a patch to GRUB that fixed my problem
[08:22] <binMonkey> gogeta: dang.  i never even thought of trying that.  dang.

[08:24] <Crustacean-Bob> What should I make backups up other than xorg?
[08:24] <binMonkey> slicks_mage: use ndiswrapper over fwcutter.
[08:24] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, You can try fwcutter anyway though
[08:24] <Jordan_U> Crustacean-Bob, What are you doing?
[08:24] <binMonkey> slicks_mage: i have same card and fwcutter has connection problems.  it drops off a lot.
[08:25] <gogeta> unless wifi radar br
[08:25] <slicks_mage> lol figures owell atleast i got 1thing to work, I tryed installing fwcutter but got an error b4 and how do i use ndiswrapper? i dont mind if it drops off alot lol
[08:25] <gogeta> brings it up but it probly doesent
[08:25] <Crustacean-Bob> Just trying to make backups of important files and directories like xorg
[08:25] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, for fwcutter just sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[08:25] <slicks_mage> ok 1sec
[08:26] <binMonkey> slicks_mage: there's an excellent post on forums.  give me a couple minutes to find it.
[08:26] <slicks_mage> ok np

[08:28] <slicks_mage> ok binmonkey 1sec
[08:28] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, But try fwcutter anyways, it can't hurt anything and doesn't conflict with ndiswrapper ( though ndiswrapper conflicts with it )
[08:28] <overclucker> crustation-bob /boot/grub/menu.lst, /etc/fstab
[08:28] <binMonkey> slicks_mage: yes.  maybe it'll work well for you.

[08:30] <binMonkey> Jordan_U: i don't know.  is that required for gmail?
[08:30] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Try it again, I just installed it and it worked
[08:31] <Jordan_U> binMonkey, Yes, they may have an html only page though
[08:31] <Jordan_U> binMonkey, gmial is actually more javascript than html :)
[08:31] <binMonkey> is there a text based browser that supports javascript?
[08:31] <binMonkey> i dig the command line stuff!!
[08:31] <slicks_mage> jordan by sudo apt-get? wut exactly did u type?
[08:32] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[08:33] <Jordan_U> binMonkey, lynks2
[08:33] <slicks_mage> jordan wut next?
[08:33] <overclucker> elinks
[08:33] <fulio> aww, after i have installed kiba-docks none of my desktop effects are working, when i go to settings and go to preferences my desktop effects isnt located
[08:34] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Reboot or run "sudo modprobe bcm43xx"
[08:34] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Then you should see light on your card
[08:34] <slicks_mage> k 1sec
[08:34] <fulio> can someone hel me please.
[08:34] <overclucker> !ask | fulio
[08:34] <ubotu> fulio: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:34] <slicks_mage> jordan FATAL: Module bcm43x not found.
[08:34] <Jordan_U> fulio, try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:35] <Kom0dor> has, um, anybody had a problem installing build-essential recently?
[08:35] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Did you remove bcm43xx ?
[08:35] <krammer> how can I install kde if I am not connected to the interent
[08:35] <slicks_mage> jordan i dont think so all i did was sudo apt-get like u said
[08:35] <MenZa> krammer: your best bet is probably downloading the kubuntu CD and use it as a repository
[08:35] <Jordan_U> krammer, Use synaptic to make a download script then download the packages from another comp
[08:35] <krammer> cannot connect to my router (wifi) so I tried to connect with ether cable and still no luck
[08:35] <fulio> Jordan_U, its still the same.
[08:36] <krammer> i am trying to figure out my problem
[08:36] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, I mean earlier, any time since you installed Ubuntu
[08:36] <slicks_mage> i have no idea i dont think so, should i try2 reinstall or something?
[08:37] <binMonkey> overclucker: excellent.  elinks is great.  is it possible to add colored text?
[08:37] <fulio> my desktop effects isnt working it seems like it isnt installed.
[08:37] <Kom0dor> hrm, does anybody find the build-essential package broken?
[08:38] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Probably no need, see if you have all the default packages by installing the "ubuntu-desktop" package
[08:38] <slicks_mage> through synaptic?
[08:39] <Jordan_U> fulio, try running "desktop-effects" from a terminal
[08:39] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Yes
[08:39] <slicks_mage> k
[08:39] <GuHhH> debian:/home/gustavo# mount -t vfat /media/mplayer /mnt/teste
[08:39] <GuHhH> mount: /media/mplayer is not a block device
[08:39] <GuHhH> why that happens?
[08:39] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Wait, did you run "sudo modprobe bcm43xx" or did you only have one x ?
[08:39] <GuHhH> Im trying to mount a mp3 player device
[08:40] <Evanlec> how do i boot without the splash screen? so i can see whats wrong
[08:40] <navets_> hey if anyone could take a look at my website and tell me how to improve, I would really appreciate it. http://navetz.com
[08:40] <nickrud> GuHhH: you need to mount the a device, like /dev/sda1
[08:40] <fulio> Jordan_U, i see it and i try to enable it it says ""desktop-effects""
[08:40] <slicks_mage> i did run it but im unsure if u typed one x or 2 the first time
[08:40] <Jordan_U> Evanlec, Remove the "splash" parameter from the grub menu at boot
[08:40] <fulio> Jordan_U, Failed to execute child process "gtk-window-decorator" (No such file or directory)
[08:40] <nickrud> GuHhH: didn't it show up on the desktop when you plugged it in?
[08:40] <GuHhH> nickrud: what u mean exatcly?
[08:40] <Evanlec> thats what i did, i hit e, removed the splash and silent, hit enter, and booted
[08:41] <Evanlec> but the splash still showed up
[08:41] <Jordan_U> !offtopic | navets_
[08:41] <ubotu> navets_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:41] <nickrud> GuHhH: like mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /media/mplayer
[08:41] <GuHhH> nickrud: on "computer", but i click twice and it gives me a lot of errors
[08:41] <slicks_mage> jordan its installed already
[08:41] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Wait, did you run "sudo modprobe bcm43xx" or did you only have one x ?
[08:41] <slicks_mage> the ubuntu-desktop
[08:41] <slicks_mage> want me2 try with 2 x's?
[08:41] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Yes
[08:41] <nickrud> GuHhH: try right clicking it and select unmount
[08:41] <slicks_mage> k
[08:41] <reflous> if anyone uses awn, can you tell me how to get the stack applet working?
[08:42] <strobedream> hey I have a question about getting proftpd going.
[08:42] <slicks_mage> yea i did type one x the first time but still no light yet

[08:42] <fulio> Jordan_U, sry i crashed.
[08:42] <Evanlec> okay, Jordan_U, i'm going to just edit menu.lst directly and remove 'quiet' and 'splash' and reboot
[08:43] <nickrud> GuHhH: cp? that's from the terminal; close that terminal, right click and unmount
[08:43] <GuHhH> nickrud: okay, i mounted it.
[08:43] <fulio> Jordan_U, when i tryd to enable desktop effects it says "Failed to execute child process "gtk-window-decorator" (No such file or directory)"
[08:43] <GuHhH> nickrud: now im trying to copy files and it gives that error
[08:43] <nickrud> GuHhH: using the terminal, correct?
[08:44] <PJIRCtest_> CORRECT@!!!!1
[08:44] <GuHhH> nickrud: there only says: "mount", it means its not mounted... but it gives a lot of errors when i try to mount
[08:44] <GuHhH> nickrud: yes
[08:44] <PJIRCtest_> YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[08:44] <PJIRCtest_> YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[08:44] <nickrud> GuHhH: lets get on the same page. Right click, and unmount.
[08:44] <Jordan_U> slicks_mage, Strange, either try rebooting or just use the forum post for ndiswrapper
[08:44] <slicks_mage> k
[08:47] <nickrud> GuHhH: once it's unmounted, unplug it. We'll start a log of what happens when you plug it back in.
[08:47] <GuHhH> nickrud: okay, i did
[08:47] <nickrud> unplugged?
[08:47] <GuHhH> yes
[08:47] <fulio> how can i fix this problem - Failed to execute child process "gtk-window-decorator" (No such file or directory)
[08:47] <nickrud> GuHhH: ok, open a terminal and type    tail -f /var/log/syslog
[08:48] <Jordan_U> fulio, What is the output of "which gtk-window-decorator"
[08:48] <sarower> hi everybody!
[08:48] <overclucker> ehlo
[08:49] <sarower> just introduction...!
[08:49] <mikebot> I'm trying to download a file, and the website says to use the command deb http:// ...  But ubuntu says it doesn't recognize that command... So what am I supposed to do?
[08:49] <GuHhH> nickrud: no error, apparently...
[08:49] <GuHhH> nickrud: Sep  5 00:48:14 debian kernel:  sdd: unknown partition table, maybe thats the problem, right?
[08:49] <nickrud> GuHhH: there you go.
[08:49] <nickrud> GuHhH: debian, huh ?:)
[08:50] <GuHhH> yes. :P
[08:50] <Jordan_U> mikebot, I think you are misunderstanding, you probably aren't downloading a file with your browser, what are you trying to install?
[08:50] <GuHhH> thats another problem. lol
[08:50] <nickrud> GuHhH: you'll probably need to repartition that, if it was a fat
[08:50] <GuHhH> nickrud: so i will lose my data :(
[08:51] <fulio> how can i fix this problem Failed to execute child process "gtk-window-decorator" (No such file or directory)
[08:51] <binMonkey> thanks for the help, everyone.  good night.
[08:51] <slicks_mage> Jordan when running installer-py for the wireless driver i got an error "xmessage: problems reading message file press ctrl+x to close the window"
[08:51] <nickrud> GuHhH: it may be that your windows box can read it with your players custom software(?), but unknown partition tables are over my head.
[08:51] <andruk> what does -= mean in C++?
[08:51] <slicks_mage> *installer.py
[08:52] <fulio> will anyone help me please?
[08:53] <GuHhH> nickrud: no, it reads "on the box" ...
[08:53] <nickrud> ?
[08:53] <GuHhH> nickrud: i dont need any software :P
[08:53] <nickrud> oh, you can drop and drag
[08:54] <GuHhH> okay, i will use my windows... lol
[08:54] <GuHhH> copy from mp3 player to pen driver...
[08:54] <nickrud> GuHhH: crappy hardware. Get a ... I don't even know ;)
[08:54] <GuHhH> nickrud: Thanks for your help :D
[08:54] <nickrud> GuHhH: well, all I did was stop you wasting time, I guess that's a help
[08:55] <GuHhH> nickrud: yes, yes. i didnt know whats the problem exactly. you helped me, indeed. Thanks! :)
[08:55] <yjwong|lunch> fulio, type the output of "which gtk-window-decorator"
[08:58] <[mR] opt1lc> hallo
[08:59] <simplechat> hai
[09:02] <shellhack> martin: hello
[09:03] <Kom0dor> erm, I messed up by install a gutsy package [libc6] , and now I can't install build-essential, how can I fix this?
[09:03] <nickrud> Kom0dor: oh, oh, you are in deep doo doo
[09:03] <dedi> my usb harddisks dont automount anymore
[09:04] <Kom0dor> really? that sucks. I've been trying to figure out what was wrong, but it turns out it's because I have a gutsy package installed. And libc6 was a lame one
[09:04] <nickrud> Kom0dor: when you downloaded libc6, did anything else come along?
[09:05] <Kom0dor> well, actually, I was getting a new version of nexuiz, and it needed a new version of libc, it said
[09:05] <nickrud> libc6 is about as low level a library you can get, just about everything uses it
[09:05] <Kom0dor> yeah, I looked at uninstalling it :x
[09:05] <[mR] opt1lc> lol
[09:06] <nickrud> Kom0dor: have you ever used the interactive version of aptitude?
[09:06] <Kom0dor> heh, figures, no problems on ubuntu for a year, and then my first one...toasted.
[09:06] <Kom0dor> never used aptitude much, actually
[09:06] <Kom0dor> I usually just apt-get or use synaptic, but I'll look into it right quick
[09:09] <nickrud> Kom0dor: let me know when you have it open
[09:09] <Kom0dor> I have it opened.
[09:09] <Kom0dor> man, I have messed up pretty badly
[09:10] <Kom0dor> Contains the standard libraries that are used by nearly all programs on the    
[09:10] <Kom0dor> system. This package includes shared versions of the standard C library and the
[09:10] <Kom0dor> standard math library, as well as many others.
[09:10] <nickrud> Kom0dor: ok type llibc6 (this will limit the display to a manageable number of packages)
[09:10] <nickrud> now, do you see libc6 and lib6-i686?
[09:11] <nickrud> use the [ and ]  keys to open and close the tree
[09:11] <Kom0dor> nod, libc6 is installed, the second one isn't
[09:11] <nickrud> ok, hit enter on lib6
[09:11] <nickrud> *libc6
[09:11] <Kom0dor> done
[09:12] <nickrud> now, scroll all the way to the bottom, you should see two libc6 packages mentioned
[09:12] <nickrud> [
[09:12] <nickrud> erg, wrong window ;)
[09:12] <gce> trying to compile a custom kernel and trying to find the option for enabling large block devices i.e config_lbd but I can't find it when i do make menuconfig any idea where it's buried ?
[09:12] <GuHhH> is there any way, but comparing to  original files, to know if my computer was rootkited?
[09:13] <Kom0dor> yes there are two
[09:13] <GuHhH> Kom0dor: like?
[09:13] <nickrud> Kom0dor: ok! now, open another window
[09:13] <Kom0dor> 2.5 and [:c]  2,6
[09:13] <GuHhH> lol
[09:13] <nickrud> Kom0dor: a sec
[09:13] <Kom0dor> alright, opened new terminal
[09:13] <Kom0dor> Kk
[09:14] <nickrud> Kom0dor: type apt-cache policy libc6
[09:14] <Kom0dor> libc5:
[09:14] <Kom0dor>   Installed: (none)

[09:14] <nickrud> Kom0dor: libc6
[09:14] <Kom0dor> oops,. typo
[09:15] <Kom0dor> sorry
[09:15] <nickrud> heh, I hope so ;)
[09:15] <Kom0dor> god@box:~$ apt-cache policy libc6

[09:15] <Kom0dor> hrm, sorry, probably should not pasted all that here
[09:15] <Kom0dor> yeah
[09:15] <nickrud> ok, now back to the other window, and hightlight 2.5-0ubuntu14
[09:16] <Kom0dor> highlighted.
[09:16] <nickrud> press shift and the + key
[09:16] <nickrud> should turn green
[09:16] <Kom0dor> it did, and 2.6 turned violet
[09:17] <nickrud> ok, press g once, that'll show you the packages to be installed and removed
[09:17] <nickrud> anything red on the screen?
[09:18] <Kom0dor> nope, white/blue/gray
[09:18] <dew> Evening all
[09:18] <nickrud> ok, hit g again to go do it
[09:18] <Jordan_U> nickrud, If red means dependency problems no red might not actually mean no dependency problems with a downgrade
[09:19] <nickrud> Jordan_U: no, it'll pick that up. whenever anything is broken, aptitude tells you loudly
[09:19] <Kom0dor> ah, nickrud, thanks for showing me how to do that
[09:19] <Jordan_U> nickrud, But IIRC dpkg does not check dependency problems for downgrades
[09:19] <dew> so what's the topic this evening?
[09:19] <b33r-> nickrud, I thought u were leaving ;p
[09:20] <nickrud> Jordan_U: I used to downgrade stuff from experimental to unstable, and sometimes it took an hour or more to work through all the brokenness.
[09:20] <moversti> could someone confirm that 64-bit LTSP server can be used with 32-bit clients?
[09:21] <Geek_> moversti: i don't think there's any reason it shouldn't
[09:21] <GuHhH> is there any way, but comparing to original files, to know if my computer was rootkited?
[09:21] <cafuego> as long as you have a 32bit nfsroot then can boot, sure
[09:21] <cafuego> s/then/they/
[09:21] <nickrud>  b33r- I was writing a bit on that java-package, came to this window to close it and KomOdor caught my eye
[09:21] <Jordan_U> nickrud, Man dpkg , maybe aptitude does it but it seems dpkg alone does not
[09:21] <cafuego> an i386 ltsp server also happily services powerpc clients, again provided there is a powerpc kernel and chroot.
[09:22] <b33r-> lol
[09:22] <fulio> is there anyway for me to install kiba-dock with my desktop effects getting messed up?
[09:22] <jan_> anyone knows if it's possible to make roaming profiles in ubuntu ?
[09:22] <Jordan_U> nickrud, I am curious if apt does.
[09:22] <moversti> cafuego: do you have some nice urls to study?
[09:22] <[mR] opt1lc> who can help me?
[09:23] <cafuego> moversti: not offhand, no. edubuntu docs are probably handu, though
[09:23] <nickrud> Jordan_U: I know, that's why I picked up on aptitude a long time ago. I had been using dselect, for learning dependencies and the like, but aptitude kicked it's butt
[09:23] <Flannel> !ask | [mR] opt1lc
[09:23] <ubotu> [mR] opt1lc: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:23] <moversti> cafuego: ubuntu docs didn't had any build-32bit clients mentioned, some other docs had, when I googled
[09:24] <dew> .... anyone have a clue as to how to get "show desktop" to ignore certain windows?
[09:24] <h1st0> Is there a way to see if i'm using dma or not on my hdd?
[09:24] <ferronica> i am using Linsta 0.3 icon theme, how can i replace some icons from it :(
[09:24] <fulio> hi i need help installing awn.
[09:24] <b33r-> nickrud, is it normal to use 135MB of swap and only 84 of my RAM?
[09:24] <dedi> my usb harddisks dont automount anymore. what could cause that?
[09:24] <rausb0> !java > rausb0
[09:24] <ferronica> like Home Folder icon.
[09:24] <h1st0> hdparm isn't showing any dma = on or anything and if I try to hdparm -d 1 /dev/sda  I get errors
[09:25] <Helmi> anyone expriencing low javascript performance in firefox under ubuntu?
[09:25] <nickrud> b33r-: it's probably using the rest of your ram as cache, try looking at it with htop (you may need to install it)
[09:25] <Helmi> *experiencing*
[09:25] <GuHhH> Jordan_U: yes, apt does that
[09:26] <[mR] opt1lc> you know what "error 18"
[09:26] <[mR] opt1lc> in ubuntu
[09:27] <dew> Hmmm I guess not.
[09:27] <b33r-> nickrud, it shows the same in htop
[09:27] <ferronica> i am using Linsta 0.3 icon theme, how can i replace some icons from it :(
[09:28] <GuHhH> Jordan_U: do u want to "downgrade" to stable?
[09:28] <nickrud> b33r-: no other colors in the bar? To be honest, I've never really understood the caching and swapping that the kernel does. It's one of those things I just take on faith
[09:29] <yjwong> ferronica, you can find the icon files in ~/.icon/
[09:29] <yjwong> err, sorry, it's ~/.icons/
[09:30] <ferronica> yjwong; i tried under it
[09:30] <ferronica> yjwong; and replaced  but no effects :(
[09:30] <yjwong> hmm, but it doesn't work?
[09:30] <Jordan_U> GuHhH, No, I'm just curious.
[09:30] <ferronica> yjwong; scaleable - app
[09:30] <yjwong> hmm

[09:31] <bauer> like to get PyChart on my ubuntu how do i do that
[09:31] <h1st0> How do I check if DMA is enabled?
[09:31] <ferronica> yjwong; /home/tushar/.icons/LiNsta-0.3
[09:31] <yjwong> for my icon theme, it is under /scalable/places/user-home.png
[09:31] <yjwong> in the icon folder
[09:31] <GuHhH> Jordan_U: u can do that editing/creating a file /etc/apt/preferences, and setting differents priorities to each release, the greatest priority number will have priority
[09:32] <ferronica> yjwong; do you have any idea
[09:33] <dew> Is it possible to get the "Show Desktop" button to ignore certain windows?  More specifically, a way to keep Screenlets from minimizing?
[09:33] <GuHhH> Jordan_U: even if its version is newer
[09:33] <yjwong> ferronica, i'm not too sure
[09:33] <nickrud> GuHhH: what I think of groking preferences is best expressed by your name ;)
[09:33] <yjwong> i have two home folder icons: one is the user-home.png, the other is gnome-fs-home.png
[09:34] <ferronica> yjwong; i have replaced the icon but no effects :(
[09:34] <dew> ferronica... are you restarting your computer after you change the icon?  Maybe that'll make a difference...?
[09:35] <ferronica> yjwong; not yet
[09:36] <kasimon> hello :)
[09:36] <dew> hey kasimon
[09:36] <kasimon> how do I create a 6.06 package on etch? pbuilder?
[09:37] <GuHhH> nickrud: what you mean? i dont speak english as my language :p
[09:38] <dew> kasimon... hate to say it, I've never done that.
[09:38] <nickrud> GuHhH: the only way I know how to say that, is to grunt ;P
[09:39] <dew> ... hmmm
[09:39] <nickrud> GuHhH: and to be clear, your nick ;)
[09:39] <kasimon> dew: me too ;) my wife has 6.06 on her old thinkpad 600e and I want to create her a backport of lyx 1.5, but at work i have etch on my system
[09:39] <GuHhH> nickrud: why that? >:(
[09:39] <dew> kasimon... ah lovely.  That really sucks.  I wish I could help.  My problem seems to be un-solveable.... Lol

[09:41] <GuHhH> oops, nickrud.
[09:42] <ferronica> any one here who can help me regarding icon theme :(
[09:42] <nickrud> GuHhH: oh, no, you got it right the first time. That was my nick on the bbs's back in the 80's and, sadly, I lived up to it

[09:43] <danielronin> i get a grub error at part 1.5
[09:43] <nickrud> thankfully those logs are long gone
[09:43] <yjwong> dew, are you using Metacity or Compiz?
[09:43] <nickrud> well, any way it's over an hour past the time I shoulda logged off. See you all later
[09:44] <JosephW__> I did it!  I did it!  I installed Ubuntu Linux on a Macbook Pro (first time installing Linux ever)!  It's possible!  Whoo!  (Okay, just wanted to celebrate.)
[09:44] <dew> yjwong.... I'm using Beryl, actually.
[09:44] <kasimon> dew: no, i don't even have an idea what those are
[09:44] <yjwong> uh, Beryl? Why not use Compiz Fusion?
[09:44] <TTilus> JosephW__: \o/
[09:45] <yjwong> if you are using the Show Desktop plugin, there is an option called "Window Types"
[09:45] <osfameron> JosephW__: nice!  that'll really annoy the fanboys :-)
[09:45] <JosephW__> Well, I'm a dual-booting fanboy myself.
[09:45] <osfameron> I occasionally fancy installing ubuntu on a macbook, but I think I want a smaller, lighter laptop
[09:46] <osfameron> ah, ok, I wasn't going to bother with osx at all :-)
[09:46] <JosephW__> But I just wanted to thank you all and people like you for generating a whole host of user support!
[09:46] <JosephW__> Without you people, I wouldn't get to have this 3:46 AM moment of elation.
[09:46] <wonton_> lol
[09:47] <Geek_> osfameron: i think asus has a few 7 inch systems ;)
[09:47] <dew> yjwong.... hmmm I don't have the "show desktop" plugin... I've just been using the "show desktop" button in the lower right-hand corner.... I looked in my beryl settings and I don't have that plugin.
[09:47] <yjwong> uh
[09:47] <yjwong> oh
[09:47] <yjwong> then i guess i'm not too sure
[09:47] <yjwong> because I've removed the bottom panel entirely :)
[09:48] <ferronica> any one here who can help me regarding icon theme :(
[09:48] <osfameron> Geek_: ooo, nice.  I was thinking of a small thinkpad - not anything smaller than that
[09:48] <Geek_> ;)
[09:48] <dew> yjwong... LoL I gotcha.  Well what about with Screenlets, you think there's another way I can work around it?
[09:48] <Geek_> thinkpads would be the x series
[09:48] <uselessid> is it possible to change the output of  my sound, from laptop speakers to phone?
[09:49] <osfameron> Geek_: yeah, x60s (s to get better battery life, way more important than power. Or the x61s when that comes out)
[09:49] <yjwong> dew: well, actually I used Compiz Fusion's widget layer
[09:49] <Geek_> osfameron: totally agreed. my current 'daily driver' system is a r51 ;)
[09:49] <yjwong> so when i press a key, all the widgets will show up
[09:49] <dew> yjwong... ah gotcha.
[09:49] <yjwong> normally they are hidden
[09:50] <dew> yjwong... well I have that option too, got that to work perfectly but it's just the thing for me, ya know?
[09:50] <grndslm> i'm trying to get every last drop i can outta this quad core i bought... so, i assume that means running the 64-bit OS, correct??  and what are the disadvantages of running 64-bit, if any?
[09:50] <Frogzoo> grndslm: 64 bit isn't widely supported, flash won't work, and there's little real advantage on the desktop unless you have > 4gig ram
[09:51] <kauer> here's a question: Is it possible, with GNOME and a single monitor, to have multiple separate desktops and switch between them? The window switcher is good, but all the desktops are the same (same taskbars, same icons etc).
[09:51] <grndslm> Frogzoo:  do you know if 64-bit would help out 1080p hd movies??
[09:51] <Frogzoo> grndslm: a little, not much
[09:52] <grndslm> Frogzoo... so, flash & w32codecs needs to be compiled on the machine... and just about everything else should install perfectly fine??
[09:53] <Frogzoo> grndslm: there is no flash for 64 bit
[09:53] <grndslm> Frogzoo:  soo, nobody with 64-bit uses flash??  i thought there was some way to compile it for 64-bit OSes??
[09:54] <scipio_> you
[09:54] <scipio_> you'd have to use a 32bit firefox with flash
[09:54] <uselessid> is it possible to change the output of  my sound, from laptop speakers to headphones?
[09:54] <sauvin> uselessid, what do you mean/
[09:54] <grndslm> plug in the headphones??
[09:54] <Geek_> uselessid: plug in the headphones. it should be automatic, on HW level
[09:54] <uselessid> but its not :(
[09:55] <grndslm> buy a new laptop??
[09:55] <shufla> hello.
[09:55] <sauvin> Then you have a hardware issue.
[09:56] <shufla> what kind of virtualisation do you recommend on feisty? until now I used linux-vserver, but "official" support ends on edgy...
[09:56] <grndslm> so, i guess there really isn't a point to using 64-bit OS yet. . .
[09:56] <grndslm> shufla: vmware
[09:56] <sauvin> grndslm, there IS a point if you're a pioneer.
[09:56] <uselessid> grndslm: why should i do that if the output actually works?
[09:57] <grndslm> uselessid, u just said the headphone out *didn't* work?
[09:57] <grndslm> didn't u?
[09:57] <uselessid> where i said that?
[09:57] <ferronica> any one here who can help regarding icon ?
 but its not :(
[09:57] <sauvin> icon!? the language?
[09:57] <uselessid> i just said the pluggin in the headphones, it still playing sound on my speakers
[09:58] <grndslm> do you have another OS to make sure it's not a hardware issue?
[09:58] <uselessid> *the = that :P
[09:58] <sauvin> You sure you're plugging your phones into the HEADPHONE jack?
[09:58] <uselessid> grndslm: sure... it works
[09:58] <uselessid> im not stupid :(
[09:58] <grndslm> well, some folks are
[09:59] <sauvin> uselessid, nobody said you ARE, but we've seen some pretty stupid things happen.
[09:59] <grndslm> but... linux is a lil weird sometimes and it isn't really the hardware guys that are the st00pit ones
[09:59] <uselessid> sauvin: lol, ur ask makes it looks like it :P
[09:59] <overclucker> !tuttle
[09:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tuttle - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:00] <ferronica> Any one here who can help regarding icon ?
[10:00] <sauvin> ferronica, are you talking about the programming language?
[10:01] <ferronica> sauvin: No
[10:02] <ferronica> sauvin: i am want to replace some icon from my linsta0.3
[10:02] <ferronica> sauvin: Can you please help me in that ?
[10:03] <sauvin> I don't know what "linsta0.3" is.
[10:03] <uselessid> :-(
[10:04] <overclucker> uselessid, why the long face?
[10:05] <dew> <<< agrees with useless... :(
[10:05] <ferronica> sauvin: ?
[10:05] <faileas> well if its a hardware issue, there ain't anything you can do with any OS
[10:06] <sauvin> Ferronica, I don't know what "linsta0.3" is.
[10:06] <ferronica> sauvin: its is a icon theme.
[10:07] <uselessid> overclucker: ppl are made me look stupid and im sad about that :-(
[10:07] <ferronica> sauvin: i want to replace some icon from it
[10:07] <sauvin> I don't know what that is, and apparently don't have it. :(
[10:08] <ferronica> sauvin: oh okay
[10:08] <sameer_> i useKde 3.5 , i have this strange problem , when trying to  switch user  ubuntu just stalls , is there any one facing the same problem , ?
[10:08] <uselessid> oops.

[10:09] <b33r-> :o
[10:10] <sauvin> sameer_, I have a similar problem just logging out. It seems THAT part of KDE is a bit wobbly
[10:10] <overclucker> uselessid, tech support can be hard if you're not actually there to see the problem,
[10:12] <gerro> sameer_: I have no clue about kde I use xfce
[10:12] <sameer_> sauvin , yes , it happens when looging out , i think i should report this bug , thanks for help
[10:13] <booster_> hey all
[10:13] <sameer_> gerro , do you face any troubles when logging out ?
[10:13] <sauvin> I don't think it's a KDE problem, though, at least, not necessarily. I switch users all the time in KDE under Fedora Core, and it works well.
[10:16] <danielronin> can anyone help me with a boot problem?
[10:16] <paradigm> daniel, whats the problem?
[10:16] <danielronin> before i was getting a GRUB error at stage 1.5
[10:16] <danielronin> so i loaded the install cd and reinstalled GRUB
[10:16] <danielronin> now whatever i try to boot, i get "Error 15: File not found"
[10:17] <overclucker> danielronin, whick disk do you boot from? (if more than one)
[10:17] <shnastybiznastic> damnable firefox memory leak!
[10:17] <danielronin> but the boot menu is my altered menu.lst, so i think the images GRUB was pointing to are changed since i made a change to the partition table

[10:17] <danielronin> just 1

[10:23] <danielronin> I really don't want to reinstall, i have everything updated and patched how i want it. i'd hate to go through that config again

[10:24] <paradigm> booster, try to open the DVD in totem - it should prompt you to download the proper (restricted) codecs

[10:24] <booster_> ok thanks
[10:24] <paradigm> sure

[10:24] <Metal03> Sauvin : Ok, now that this might resolve the issue, think you could help me install the drivers for this printer??  I bought this Samsung SCX-4200 today and haven't been able to make it work since (been a few hours)
[10:25] <MadCaddies> Aldo, slow  down, just wait and someone will help you.
[10:25] <sauvin> I know nothing of printer installation under linux :(
[10:26] <Metal03> Sauvin : Damnit...  thanks anyways!
[10:26] <paradigm> Can anyone help me get the tty resolution to 1920x1200 in Feisty?
[10:26] <sauvin> Sorry. I don't have a printer.
[10:26] <osiris_> does any one know where to dump mysql databases created in windows
[10:26] <Metal03> Anyone knows about printers drivers and installation?
[10:26] <osiris_> Metal03: what printer r u using
[10:27] <MadCaddies> taime1: sorry, i meant: apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-source
[10:27] <sauvin> osiris_, you can't just take mysql database images from one OS and plop them into another. I hope that's not what you're after.
[10:27] <Metal03> Osiris : I just bought a bran new Samsung SCX-4200
[10:28] <osiris_> sauvin: ive tried copying the database from one windows system to another and it worked
[10:28] <morpheus> osiris: I use a program called full convert to transfer databases from mysql to other formats and vice cersa
[10:28] <Metal03> Osiris_: Ubuntu detects it right but then it doesn't seem to have the drivers for this model!  Linux drivers are provided with the printer but they're not in the right format for Ubuntu it seems!
[10:29] <adhek> anyone can help me
[10:29] <nucco> how do i check free disk space on an ubuntu system via the terminal?
[10:29] <osiris_> morpheus: i want you to understand me
[10:29] <sauvin> From one WINDOWS system to another, yes, but from Windows to Linux, I fear you'd run into binary format incompatibilities. Can you dump SQL?
[10:29] <adhek> how do i install my webcam
[10:29] <overclucker> osiris_, http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.com/downloadfile/ContentsFile.aspx?CDSite=us&CttFileID=828690&CDCttType=DR&ModelType=N&ModelName=SCX-4200&VPath=DR/200707/20070720152943906_UnifiedLinuxDriver.tar.gz
[10:29] <sauvin> nucco: df -h
[10:30] <nucco> sauvin: thanxs
[10:30] <morpheus> osiris: full convert allows you to take a database from SQL<>MYSQL or MYSQL<>MYSQL or many other itterations
[10:30] <nucco> sauvin: worked like a charm :))
[10:30] <sauvin> :)
[10:31] <nucco> u hapen to know how i can compress a directory with tar, gzip it, and then transfer it via ftp
[10:32] <osiris_> morpheus: could you like tell me what to about my database
[10:32] <sauvin> Damnit, I used to know that, nucco. Have you looked at info tar?
[10:32] <nucco> i need to do that because i don't have enough free disk space, and my gnome's borded
[10:32] <morpheus> osiris_: are you using phpmyadmin at all?
[10:32] <nucco> sauvin: i can do the tar and gzip part
[10:32] <osiris_> morpheus: no i prefer the manual way
[10:32] <sauvin> if you don't have enough free space, you're going to have a REAL crisis during the tar/gzip process.
[10:33] <osiris_> morpheus: do you think i should create the database all over again then modify my php code
[10:33] <FreeDance> G'day Folks Does anyone here use beryl?
[10:33] <dew> freedance... I do
[10:33] <nucco> sauvin: i'm attempting to do the tar/gzip with --remove-files
[10:33] <osiris_> every one uses berly
[10:34] <FreeDance> sweet umm you know how by default the windows are red?
[10:34] <paradigm> osiris - plenty have moved to compiz fusion
[10:34] <sauvin> The ftp part is easy, assuming you have someplace to ftp TO.
[10:34] <paradigm> FreeDance - what about it?
[10:34] <nucco> sauvin: yes, i have an ftp server on my local network
[10:34] <FreeDance> do you know how to change that color?
[10:34] <paradigm> yes
[10:34] <FreeDance> awesome
[10:34] <sauvin> And do you have an account on that server?
[10:34] <FreeDance> how?
[10:34] <paradigm> run "emerald" in the console
[10:35] <nucco> sauvin: can i pipe the output of tar/gzip to the ftp?
[10:35] <morpheus> osiris_: if you have the database already then all you need to do is create a new database, export your existing one and import it back in to the new database, you shouldnt have to rebuild it
[10:35] <morpheus> stinkfist_: fellow tool fan?
[10:35] <FreeDance> oh sick
[10:35] <nucco> sauvin: oh my god... tar/gzip just deleted 30GB of my data!!!!
[10:35] <paradigm> FreeDance - look for emerald System -> prefrences or System -> Administration
[10:36] <paradigm> you should be able to configure it there
[10:36] <sauvin> And thus my shudder :(
[10:36] <FreeDance> will that keep my other settings and what not?
[10:37] <paradigm> Yes, Emerald settings are (for the mostpart) seperate from Beryl settings
[10:37] <paradigm> If you can't find it under the menu, type this into the console: "emerald-theme-manager -i"
[10:38] <FreeDance> i found it
[10:38] <paradigm> Awesome
[10:38] <paradigm> Can anyone help me get the tty resolution to 1920x1200 in Feisty?
[10:38] <nucco> ;(
[10:38] <FreeDance> thanks man your a flipping legend ; )
[10:38] <paradigm> Glad to help freedance
[10:38] <FreeDance> super star ...thanks
[10:38] <morpheus> anyone know of any open source network KVM apps, got a linux box and a doze box side by side and cant afford a fancy ass kvm (+I wanna see if there is one about :))
[10:38] <dew> JOIN #beryl
[10:39] <dew> Whoops
[10:39] <sauvin> I said that at work just today... "That's flipping AWESOME"... and the folks working with me said "I can't f* believe you just f* said that!"
[10:39] <nucco> sauvin: my free space hasn't increased
[10:39] <Metal03> Ok, here's my problem...  When I try to run the autorun from that download I get this message : "You are not authorized to install the driver package. Only user with root privileges is allowed to do this." How can I solve that
[10:39] <Metal03> ?
[10:39] <sauvin> if your free space hasn't increased, where did all your files go?
[10:39] <nucco> i dunno
[10:39] <FreeDance> one more thing paradigm you know how you can hold your mouse over a window and i comes to the front?
[10:39] <nucco> do you know the default filename that tar uses if you don't supply one?
[10:39] <sauvin> Do you have a .tar.gz file?
[10:40] <FreeDance> beryl overwrote that for me any ideas?
[10:40] <Metal03> sauvin : me?
[10:40] <nucco> i've got a few, but none of them are the right one
[10:40] <sauvin> Um... I'm fraid to ask... what syntax did you use to create your tar file?
[10:40] <^_uhoh> Where can I download the latest copy of a magic.mime file?
[10:41] <nucco> sauvin: tar -cfz --remove-files ./Documents
[10:42] <Metal03> How can I run this autorun as root?
[10:42] <paradigm> Metal - try "sudo autorun" ?
[10:42] <Metal03> I did
[10:42] <paradigm> try "sudo su", then "autorun"?
[10:43] <sauvin> I don't remember ever tarring and zipping in the same command. The tar syntax I use is tar [options]  myfile.tar dir_to_tar
[10:43] <^_uhoh> I am at http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types, but I am looking for a copy of magic.mime to download and upload to a webserver.  I can't find a link to download.  Anyone have any ideas?
[10:43] <yokomo> how do I tell if I have OpenGL direct rendering set up right? I have a ATI X1300 card, envy installed
[10:43] <Metal03> paradigm : "sudo: must be setuid root"
[10:44] <Frogzoo> sauvin: man tar
[10:44] <sauvin> nucco, do an ls -a and look for the LATEST timestamped file. MAYBE tar created a file, but I doubt it :(
[10:45] <nucco> yokomo: glxinfo | grep rendering
[10:45] <Metal03> paradigm : That was the error message I got "sudo: must be setuid root"
[10:45] <yjwong> yokomo, in a normal X server, type "fglrxinfo" (without the quotes) in the Terminal
[10:45] <sauvin> Frogzoo, I just did that; nucco's syntax is *almost* right.
[10:45] <KomiaPoika> hi
[10:45] <nucco> sauvin: ok
[10:45] <askvictor> what's the difference between nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new?
[10:45] <KomiaPoika> how do i apt-get install all packages listed from a ubuntu system using dpkg -l on another system, without typing in the package names one by one?
[10:46] <yokomo> yjwong, all that tells me is that I have OpenGL version string 2.0.6458 (8.36.5)
[10:46] <Mr-Snick> ay, is it possible to install aim, on 64bit ubuntu feisty?
[10:46] <Mr-Snick> i've managed to install skype32bit.. just havin trouble with aim
[10:46] <yjwong> um, sorry, i said the wrong command
[10:46] <yjwong> it is "glxinfo | grep rendering"
[10:47] <yjwong> if everything is well and working, it should say: direct rendering: Yes
[10:47] <yokomo> hrm
[10:47] <yokomo> says "No"
[10:47] <yokomo> for direct rendering
[10:47] <yjwong> did you disable Composite in xorg.conf?
[10:47] <Metal03> Ok, here's my problem...  When I try to run the autorun from that download I get this message : "You are not authorized to install the driver package. Only user with root privileges is allowed to do this." How can I solve that?  I tried "sudo autorun" and it got me this error message : "udo: must be setuid root"  Any ideas?
[10:48] <nucco> sauvin: no luck, even /tmp is empty
[10:48] <sauvin> :(
[10:48] <yokomo> Xlib: extension "Xfree86-DRI" missing on display ";1.0"
[10:48] <yokomo> yjwong, I don't believe I did
[10:48] <yjwong> uh, you are running glxinfo under Xgl, yes?
[10:48] <yokomo> I think so
[10:48] <sauvin> I'm really sorry, nucco - I really wish we could have huddled on the tar syntax before you committed :(
[10:48] <yokomo> I installed compiz

[10:49] <yjwong> yokomo, if compiz would work then everything is well
[10:49] <yokomo> weird that it would not come up then
[10:49] <nucco> ok, that's history, how i've got one more folder left, about 35GB, and i've got 5.5G free
[10:49] <yjwong> under Xgl direct rendering would always be "no"
[10:49] <nucco> i've got an ftp server in the local network (100Mb/s) with 30G free
[10:49] <yokomo> oh
[10:50] <Kworth> My Simple Backup Config Programm doesn't work proper it says:   File "/usr/lib/python2.5/ConfigParser.py", line 511, in get
[10:50] <Kworth>     raise NoSectionError(section)
[10:50] <Kworth> ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'places'
[10:50] <nucco> sauvin: is it possible to ftp the folder across as-is?
[10:50] <yokomo> so, if I want to run games with cedega do I have to turn it on?
[10:50] <Kworth> anyone a clue why?
[10:50] <yjwong> yokomo, not neccessarily
[10:50] <yokomo> oh, ok
[10:50] <yjwong> you can use DISPLAY=:0
[10:50] <selinuxium> Hi all, is there anyway to reset the remote desktop password over ssh?
[10:50] <yjwong> DISPLAY=:0 <appname>
[10:51] <nucco> can anyone tell me how to ftp an entire folder?
[10:51] <paradigm>  Can anyone help me get the tty resolution to 1920x1200 in Feisty?
[10:51] <sauvin> nucco, possibly - can you log onto the target machine and wget the folder?
[10:51] <nonic> hi
[10:51] <nucco> wget can upload?
[10:51] <taime1> i installed a new nvidia driver and now i only have one resolution. my xorg file has all possible resolutions listed, i have reconfigured x, and have even tried nvidia-settings, still i have only 800x600... WHY?
[10:52] <sauvin> I don't think so. You'd have to log onto the machine you want to move the folder to.
[10:52] <sauvin> I'm also assuming your machine will accept a wget request.
[10:52] <askvictor> KomiaPoika: dpkg -l | perl -n -e '($a,$b,$c)=split; print "$b\n";' > installed_packages
[10:52] <nucco> sauvin?? a little clearer pls
[10:52] <paradigm> taimel, when you change nvidia-settings, did you save to x.org?
[10:52] <nucco> i've got apache on my local machine (i hope it's still in order)
[10:52] <askvictor> KomiaPoika: then on the other computer run apt-get install `cat installed_packages`
[10:52] <sauvin> You're on machine A. You want to put the directory on machine B. Log onto machine B and wget the folder on machine A.
[10:53] <nucco> sauvin: i have to have either ftp or http on machine A
[10:53] <FreeDance> hey guys im back
[10:53] <nucco> besides, machine B is windows :( (office)
[10:53] <MadCaddies> can anyone help me with a shell script for log rotation? (i want to remove logs older than 3 days).
[10:53] <sauvin> How deep is your folder's hierarchy?
[10:54] <Frogzoo> MadCaddies: man find
[10:54] <nucco> sauvin: quite complicated: it was the samba share
[10:54] <nucco> sauvin, making it accessible via http shouldn't be too difficult...
[10:54] <sauvin> nucco, the folks on #linux will probably have a better idea how to accomplish this kind of task.
[10:54] <FreeDance> im usin beryl and in system.windows on my desktop i can make it so if i hold my mouse over a window i pops infront but beryl has stoped this any ideas?
[10:56] <askvictor> nucco: you need to ftp via command line?
[10:56] <KomiaPoika> askvictor: now that's elite command line, thanks a lot
[10:56] <nucco> askvictor: i've got ftp, but i don't know how to ftp an entire directory
[10:56] <sauvin> askvictor, he has a complex directory structure that needs to move from machine A to machine B, which is apparently a Windows machine.
[10:57] <paradigm> FreeDance, near where you got to emerald config there should be a beryl config
[10:57] <nucco> the windows machine has an ftp server on it, and i have rw access
[10:57] <paradigm> there's an option in there for raise on mouse over
[10:57] <dennis__> hiho
[10:57] <askvictor> nucco: ncftp should be able to do it
[10:57] <FreeDance> in beryl?
[10:58] <askvictor> what's the difference between nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new?
[10:58] <paradigm> FreeDance, yeah
[10:58] <nucco> askvictor, lemme see if i got that
[10:58] <FreeDance> awesome
[10:58] <FreeDance> do you know where it is?
[10:58] <nucco> askvictor: :( i don't have ncftp
[10:59] <nucco> and my dpkg is borked as well
[10:59] <paradigm> In Compiz Fusion, its under general options -> Focus & Raise Behaviour.  Not sure exactly where it is on Beryl, I haven't used it in quite some time.
[10:59] <askvictor> nucco: can't install it
[10:59] <askvictor> nucco:?
[10:59] <nucco> askvictor: i've only got nc, and ncal
[10:59] <sauvin> Does the Synaptics package manager work?
[10:59] <nucco> lemme see if i can wget, ./configure ...
[11:00] <nucco> sauvin: i haven't got a functioning Xserver
[11:00] <FreeDance> oh man you really are a superstar
[11:00] <askvictor> nucco: are you trying to download from a remote ftp server or upload to it?
[11:00] <FreeDance> thanks heaps
[11:00] <FreeDance> found it
[11:00] <paradigm> Sure thing
[11:00] <brown_cat> heya! where do I download xbuntu?
[11:01] <paradigm> brown-cat - the cd to install fresh, or to move from a current ubuntu install?
[11:01] <sauvin> askvictor, he's trying to upload an entire directory structure.
[11:01] <nucco> askvictor: i'm trying to upload to it, and i only got a terminal
[11:01] <FreeDance> does anyone know of a decent video editing program?
[11:02] <brown_cat> paradigm: I have the ubuntu CD but it is not installing fast - it has been going for over 24 hours - I currently have ms windows 2000 pro and can wipe it
[11:02] <gvsa123> FreeDance: avidemux and kino?
[11:02] <askvictor> nucco: how about zipping or tar.gz'ing the directory tree, uploading it, and asking the other end to unzip it?
[11:03] <nucco> askvictor: i just lost 30G attempting to tar/gzip on a system with not enough free space
[11:03] <paradigm> brown_cat: did you try here? http://www.xubuntu.org/get#feisty
[11:03] <FreeDance> gvsa123>are they as good as adobe prem? ( if youve ever used it?)
[11:04] <nucco> askvictor: if you can provide a way of tar/gzipping then piping it thru ftp...
[11:04] <selinuxium> Hi all, is there anyway to reset the remote desktop password over ssh?
[11:04] <brown_cat> paradigm: mhm - i selected the aussie mirror but, there are loads of different links :s
[11:04] <kahrytan> FreeDance, Whats the ques
[11:04] <gvsa123> FreeDance: nope never used it. i'm a home user so simple editing works for me...
[11:04] <gvsa123> kahrytan: video editing
[11:04] <FreeDance> yeah
[11:04] <paradigm> brown_cat: do you know what processor you have?
[11:04] <kahrytan> There is no good video editing on linux
[11:04] <FreeDance> ok cool
[11:04] <FreeDance> lol ok
[11:04] <FreeDance> will there ever be?
[11:05] <brown_cat> paradigm: IBM thinkpad :s probably intel
[11:05] <FreeDance> soon as there is im flipping leaving windows lol
[11:05] <paradigm> brown_cat:  Try burning this to a disk:  http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/xubuntu/7.04/release/xubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso
[11:05] <brown_cat> kk
[11:05] <paradigm> brown_cat: wait, wrong one
[11:05] <kahrytan> FreeDance, but we got Graphics and 3d programs
[11:05] <paradigm> brown_cat: this one:  http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/xubuntu/7.04/release/xubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
[11:06] <brown_cat> thanks :DD can I use usb or do I have to burn to cd?
[11:06] <paradigm> brown_cat its a lot easier to burn to a cd.  CD-RW's are fine
[11:06] <brown_cat> kk ;D
[11:06] <kahrytan> FreeDance, the best one in myopinion is avidemux
[11:06] <brown_cat> thanks :DD
[11:06] <paradigm> brown_cat: if the second link I gave you doesn't work, try the first one
[11:06] <brown_cat> kk :DD
[11:07] <paradigm> Anyone know how to get the tty resolution to 1920x1200?
[11:07] <kahrytan> FreeDance, blender.org for 3d stuff
[11:07] <askvictor> nucco: you can't just tar/zip into /tmp then upload that file?
[11:07] <FreeDance> yeah i got all those
[11:07] <FreeDance> too easy thanks heaps guys
[11:08] <FreeDance> rock on .keep on keeping on : )
[11:08] <brown_cat> paradigm: also, can I upgrade from kbuntu to ubuntu later?
[11:08] <nucco> askvictor: my entire filesystem is on / on a single drive with only 5.5G free
[11:08] <nucco> i just did a reboot -n now
[11:09] <paradigm> brown_cat: yes, look for "ubuntu-desktop" in syanptic
[11:09] <brown_cat> kk, thanks :D
[11:09] <Nickem> Newbee question - looking for advise on loading Java programs like SDK, Java 3D, Net Beans, etc?
[11:09] <taime1> i installed a new nvidia driver and now i only have one resolution. my xorg file has all possible resolutions listed, i have reconfigured x, and have even tried nvidia-settings, still i have only 800x600... What gives?
[11:09] <Aldo> hi, gutsy on laptop asus A6T freeze with (I386) kernel 2.6.22 at 13.808000 2.6 USB HID core drive.
[11:10] <paradigm> tailmel: did you "save to x config" in nvidia-settings?
[11:10] <askvictor> nucco: you could try 'mkfifo /tmp/pipe.tar.gz; tar czf /tmp/pipe.tar.gz /dir/to/transfer &' then ftp /tmp/pipe.tar.gz to your new host
[11:11] <nucco> askvictor: pls remind me how to redirect stdin?
[11:12] <askvictor> nucco: it's not redirecting.
[11:12] <paradigm> taimel: did you "save to x config" in nvidia-settings?
[11:13] <taime1> nvidia-settings tells me i only have 800x600
[11:13] <dew> Well I'm out of here.
[11:13] <dew> I'll have to come back later today... maybe somewhere out there, someone knows my answer
[11:13] <nucco> askvictor: the fifo will get full because i'm putting about 30g into it, on a disk with only 5.5g free, so it has to be a process that occurs simultaneously
[11:13] <Frogzoo> nucco: app < file
[11:13] <tom17bombadil> i want to download some video-streams; they are not meant to be downloaded - there is no link to download, but just to watch. what tool is there to save it to disc nevertheless?
[11:14] <paradigm> taimel: Try running nvidia-settings like this: "sudo /usr/bin/nvidia-settings"
[11:14] <nucco> Frogzoo: thx
[11:14] <gvsa123> kahrytan: kino is only for importing dv? while avidemux is better at the actual editing?
[11:14] <askvictor> nucco: it is; the fifo is a pipe which will only accept more input once the buffer has been cleared. It's just like a | pipe, but it exists on the filesystem.
[11:15] <taime1> still shows me that i only have 800x600
[11:15] <gvsa123> is desktop search going to be good in gutsy?
[11:15] <xerosis> any sound people about?
[11:16] <nucco> askvictor: ok. thx. i'll save this transcript. need to step out now, try it as soon as i get back.
[11:16] <paradigm> taimel: what monitor do you have?
[11:16] <taime1> its a dell
[11:16] <nucco> thx Sauvin, Frogzoo
[11:16] <sauvin> I tried.
[11:16] <paradigm> does the name show up under "GPU 0" in nvidia-settings?
[11:16] <taime1> (this was fine until i upgraded the nvidia driver for my newer card i installed today)
[11:17] <zyth> xerosis, what is your problem?
[11:17] <paradigm> taimel: For instance on my setup, under GPU 0, it shows "DFP-1 - (DELL 2407WFP)" - whats it say for you?
[11:17] <taime1> paradigm: it lists my monitor as @@@(crt1)
[11:17] <askvictor> is it better to use nvidia-glx-new over nvidia-glx if both support my card? The restricted drivers manager install nvidia-glx by default.
[11:17] <xerosis> zyth: trying to get a usb headset working, aplay works but nothing else
[11:18] <zyth> xerosis, ooh.  usb headset :S
[11:18] <paradigm> taimel: see if you can find your exact monitor name for me
[11:18] <taime1> its in my xorg file hang on
[11:18] <xerosis> zyth: i know :p
[11:18] <zyth> xerosis, what kind?
[11:19] <xerosis> er, JPL comms? whoever they are
[11:20] <zyth> xerosis, hangon a sec
[11:20] <taime1> paradigm: DELL P991
[11:21] <paradigm> taimel: There's code for an EDID on this page.  copy and save it somewhere, then give that to nvidia-settings under your monitor under GPU 0.  http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/forum/lofiversion/index.php?t307.html
[11:21] <ss> gk
[11:21] <taime1> paradigm: there is no where to enter that in
[11:21] <zyth> xerosis, have you tried 'sudo modprobe snd-usb-audio' ?
[11:22] <paradigm> taimel: under GPU 0, the tab that has your monitor's (messed up) name. there should be a button called "Acquire EDID"
[11:22] <taime1> i see
[11:22] <paradigm> taimel: the EDID basically tells it the stats of your monitor, including the correct supported resolutions
[11:25] <paradigm> taimel: I gotta go, hope that helps.  Once you got nvidia recognizing your monitor witht he right EDID, it should give you the correct options for resolutions.  It didn't recognize my SyncMaster 712n either, tahts what I did to fix it
[11:26] <xerosis> zyth: no luck
[11:26] <xerosis> zyth: i wouldn't have asked if it didn't work with aplay, that just leads me to think it might be possible
[11:26] <zyth> xerosis, yeah... you've checked alsamixer to make sure it isnt muted, etc?
[11:27] <Tech-Mike> sup peeps, need to know how i can get read-write access to my windows partitions (dual boot) with ubuntu (amd64)
[11:27] <zyth> Tech-Mike, sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[11:27] <Tech-Mike> coo coo, thx
[11:28] <dystopianray> Tech-Mike: install ntfs-config
[11:28] <zyth> np
[11:28] <zyth> dystopianray may be right though
[11:28] <zyth> !ntfs-3g
[11:28] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[11:28] <dystopianray> ntfs-config allows easy configuration of ntfs-3g
[11:28] <zyth> there ya go :)
[11:28] <zyth> ^^^
[11:30] <realnewguy> hey guys i installed a theme and i have to move a file from my desktop to /etc/firefox/profile, but i need permission to do so, what command would i have to use?
[11:31] <Tech-Mike> ...do i need libntfs-3g0
[11:31] <dystopianray> Tech-Mike: just install ntfs-config, it'll pull in everything it needs
[11:31] <dystopianray> realnewguy: can't you install themes locally?
[11:31] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | Tech-Mike
[11:31] <ubotu> Tech-Mike: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[11:32] <realnewguy> well its sorta tricky
[11:32] <realnewguy> i have to put something into the firefox folder
[11:32] <Jordan_U> realnewguy, mv and sudo
[11:32] <realnewguy> ahh ok ty
[11:32] <dystopianray> realnewguy: why can't you install it into your user's firefox config?
[11:32] <Jordan_U> realnewguy, For security you should chown them to root also
[11:33] <realnewguy> because when i try to cut and paste with the gui, it just doesnt let me
[11:33] <Jordan_U> dystopianray, Makes a good point though
[11:33] <dystopianray> realnewguy: normal users can't write to /etc
[11:33] <Jordan_U> realnewguy, There is a profile for all users in /etc and another just for your user in ~/
[11:33] <massiMaltese> ciao
[11:34] <Jordan_U> realnewguy, You can change anything in your home folder
[11:34] <realnewguy> but the firefox directory isnt in my home folder
[11:34] <realnewguy> its in /etc/firefox
[11:34] <dystopianray> realnewguy: ~/.mozilla/firefox
[11:35] <taime1> after installing nvidia driver, i have only 800x600 resolution. what can i do to fix this?
[11:35] <realnewguy> im at / now and i dont see mozilla
[11:35] <dystopianray> realnewguy: / is not your home directory
[11:35] <realnewguy> the only thing in "home" is the name of my desktop :S
[11:35] <Tech-Mike> ok...installed ntfs-config, ran: sudo ntfs-config, it opend and had 2 check options: enable ntfs write for internal/external devices...checked both, pressed ok, it remounted but still have no write
[11:35] <dystopianray> realnewguy: anything prefixed with '.' is hidden by default, manually browse to ~/.mozilla/
[11:36] <realnewguy> oh cool, it worked, thanks ! :)
[11:37] <Tech-Mike> ok...installed ntfs-config, ran: sudo ntfs-config, it opend and had 2 check options: enable ntfs write for internal/external devices...checked both, pressed ok, it remounted but still have no write
[11:37] <dystopianray> realnewguy: application configuration for users is always put into a ~/.* directory/file, which are hidden by default
[11:38] <realnewguy> ah ok, would it be safe for me to unhide these files by default?
[11:38] <realnewguy> or is it better to keep them hidden?
[11:38] <realnewguy> as im very inexperiencd with linux
[11:38] <dystopianray> realnewguy: there is little reason to view hidden files all the time
[11:39] <clay> canale italian
[11:39] <realnewguy> kk
[11:39] <Tech-Mike> I say again... ok...installed ntfs-config, ran: sudo ntfs-config, it opend and had 2 check options: enable ntfs write for internal/external devices...checked both, pressed ok, it remounted but still have no write
[11:39] <dystopianray> Tech-Mike: we heard you the first time two times, have some patience

[11:44] <Greyhound-> does ubuntu work well with external HDDs ? I'm thinking of buying Packard Bell "Store and Save 3500" 500GB
[11:45] <teKnofreak> Greyhound-, you want to boot from external HDD or just mount and use one ?
[11:45] <Greyhound-> just mount and use it
[11:45] <dystopianray> Greyhound-: it should work without issue
[11:45] <teKnofreak> Greyhound-, then go ahead, it works fine
[11:45] <Greyhound-> thanks :D
[11:47] <anzan> sauvin, I've no problem with two external drives.
[11:47] <dystopianray> an external usb hdd is no different to a usb pen drive or similar, except significantly larger
[11:47] <sauvin> What kinds of problems?
[11:48] <sauvin> dystopianray, that's not strictly true. pen drives don't sleep.
[11:48] <booster_> hey guys...i nedd to figure out how to enable dvd's to play in unbuntu
[11:48] <dystopianray> sauvin: i don't think that is visible to the OS though, is it?
[11:49] <sauvin> It can be when you have no means of sending it 'WAKE UP, BIZZATCH!' signal.
[11:49] <dystopianray> booster_: sudo apt-get install libdvdread3
[11:49] <selinuxium> Hi all, is there anyway to reset the remote desktop password over ssh?
[11:49] <dystopianray> booster_: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[11:50] <dystopianray> sauvin: don't the external drive electronics handle that though?
[11:51] <h1st0> Is the system monitor network traffic in Kilobytes or bits?
[11:51] <sauvin> dystopianray, I have a Western Digital "My Book" that sleeps; I have no way of waking it up when that happens, except to unplug its power, plug it back in and actually actively pmount it.
[11:51] <h1st0> It says Ki/B
[11:51] <dystopianray> sauvin: sounds like a bug in usb controller hardware on the device
[11:52] <SlimeyPete> h1st0: bytes, then.
[11:52] <sauvin> It may be. I'm having ZERO trouble with the Seagate.
[11:52] <SlimeyPete> B == bytes, b == bits
[11:52] <h1st0> SlimeyPete, ty
[11:52] <sauvin> (well, I think it, too, sleeps and leaves something in an indeterminate state because it "loses" whole directories until you pumount it, fsck it and pmount it again)

[12:14] <yjwong> yay! AMD revamped their drivers :D
[12:14] <neozen> just a sec amio... I'll take a look
[12:14] <taime1> its a new nvidia
[12:14] <amio> ok neozen
[12:14] <chelo77> Yodude: Why not try with FilezillaFTP server on Ubuntu then you login from Windows with Mozilla  or some WebBrowser instead?
[12:15] <Yodude> chelo77: man i just wanna, is it possible to set up a network between my ubutu and the windows laptop ?! i need to do just that
[12:15] <neosix> hello people!!!
[12:15] <neozen> Yodude: yeah its possible
[12:16] <neozen> hoallo neosix
[12:16] <Yodude> neozen: is it so hard ?! if not then please tell me how ! and plz let it be in a GUI way
[12:16] <neozen> Yodude: no... its not so hard
[12:17] <neozen> Yodude: easiest way ever is install openssh-server on the ubuntu box
[12:17] <neozen> Yodude: then get a file-transfer client that supports ssh2 on the windows box
[12:17] <neozen> winscp, (even filezilla might do it)
[12:18] <Prowler_1> after restart ubuntu turn into > edubuntu -WTF???
[12:18] <Yodude> neozen: can't i do it using just samba ? i think that's easier
[12:18] <SlimeyPete> !samba
[12:18] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[12:18] <neozen> ................
[12:18] <neozen> not for me...
[12:18] <neozen> I found it.... evil
[12:18] <neozen> but I'm not everyone
[12:18] <SlimeyPete> samba's usually the easiest way
[12:18] <neozen> its the BEST way no doubt
[12:19] <SlimeyPete> personally I do it via CLI (force of habit) but I believe there's a GUI tool in ubuntu somewhere
[12:19] <amio> neozen nothing so far?
[12:19] <neozen> well.. when I get that samba itch one of these days I'll be sure to ask you
[12:19] <Prowler_1> after restart ubuntu turn into > edubuntu ?
[12:20] <neozen> amio: what kind of card do you have?
[12:22] <amio> neo zen you mean the adapter? well all what I know is that : its wirless lan 511g
[12:22] <amio> the thing is I can receieve signal from the server and its written 39%
[12:23] <neozen> 511g?
[12:23] <amio> so I think the driver is known
[12:23] <Shay_cyber5482> hello all
[12:23] <amio> I mean known by ubuntu system
[12:24] <neozen> broadcoms are notorious for letting you see all the local networks.. even letting you click on them, but never actually letting you connect
[12:24] <neozen> at least... they used to be... perhaps that's changed w/ the drivers in feisty/gutsy
[12:25] <neozen> GAH!!!!
[12:25] <jxxxt> neozen, can you help me with a broadcom wireless???
[12:26] <neozen> jxxxt: not right now unfortunately, have to throw self in shower

[12:29] <jxxxt> neosix, sorry did not read you nick properly I am trying to get bcm43xx cutter and firm ware to work on amd 64
[12:29] <amio> well it was asmax i think but never mind I made it

[12:30] <Noiano> hello
[12:30] <amio> neoen help me with the next question please
[12:30] <amio> about beryl
[12:30] <neosix> jxxxt: hmmm, sorry I can help you.
[12:30] <neosix> can't
[12:30] <amio> just wanted to know beryl is the only desktop with 3D effects?

[12:31] <neosix> OK
[12:31] <neozen> amio: oh wait... you said 3d effects
[12:31] <amio> what comes regularly with ubuntu 7.4?
[12:31] <neozen> amio: scratch xfce
[12:31] <jboss> is there anybody who did network installation with ubuntu 7*
[12:31] <neozen> amio: only has transparency effects (which still look great by themselves imho)
[12:31] <neozen> amio: nothing
[12:32] <neozen> amio: in the 3d effects area anyway... you have to add compiz or beryl
[12:32] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi
[12:32] <amio> well i would like to install the most nice desktop with 3D effects the thing is I tried to put beryl and I had many troubles that I needed to reinstall ubuntu again on the hdd
[12:32] <neozen> amio: common problem, ask in #beryl or #ubuntu-effects
[12:33] <amio> just beryl didnt load automaticly and when I tried to edit sources.list or lets say this file which I dont remember its name in x11 I couldnt start ubuntu any more
[12:33] <amio> ok thanks man I will search there
[12:33] <amio> thanks any way for the help
[12:33] <neozen> amio: glad to be of service

[12:35] <renzo17> Shay_cyber5482: you have to automount it by editing your fstab file
[12:35] <renzo17> !fstab
[12:35] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[12:36] <Shay_cyber5482> thanks :)

[12:55] <yjwong> amio, I think Ubuntu asks you to install the open source drivers
[12:56] <keito> anyone here use firestarter and bittorrent?
[12:56] <jxxxt> rokey, I am not sure what to tell you sorry.
[12:56] <keito> i need to know how to set it up
[12:56] <yjwong> wait a moment, amio

[12:56] <attunix> Does anyone here know how to play FreeCol
[12:56] <attunix> ?
[12:56] <attunix> It's one of the top 25 sourceforge projects
[12:57] <renzo17> amio: you can either use the open source "ati" or "radeon" drivers already in xorg, or you ca install the official ati "fglrx" driver using the restricted drivers manager/envy
[12:57] <keito> ANYONE know how to add bittorrent port in firestarter?
[12:57] <gnomefreak> attunix: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:57] <attunix> thanks
[12:57] <gnomefreak> renzo17: please dont suggest envy
[12:57] <backpro> hello i have ubuntu with gnome desktop !! and adsl connection i have pppoeconf packages its work good but i search another package like pppoeconf with GUI ???????????
[12:57] <renzo17> amio: if you wait a week or so you can use the brand spanking new linux friendly, completely re-written "fglrx" driver that supposedly puts the nvidia driver to shame
[12:57] <rokey> jxxxt: thank u all the way . I think i need to google it use my mother language. wish google can understand me :p
[12:58] <gnomefreak> envy is bad bad script
[12:58] <renzo17> gnomefreak: ok.....mind if i ask why?

[01:07] <renzo17> MBR666: you could always use a live cd such as the Gparted LiveCD to reformet drives
[01:07] <MBR666> yes i could. but i rather not reboot
[01:07] <MeRodent> Is it possible to save beryl settings for a window. Ie reverse colours and half fade so it saves it for the next session?

[01:13] <IdleOne> Pirate_Hunter: #kubuntu
[01:13] <Pirate_Hunter> kk
[01:13] <Filthpig> IdleOne: sure, but the question is "does ubuntu have that software available"?
[01:14] <IdleOne> Filthpig: not certain. you can check on packages.ubuntu.com or search in Synaptic
[01:14] <SlimeyPete> Filthpig: check the sites configs (in /etc/apache2/sites_enabled iirc)
[01:14] <Filthpig> tried :s
[01:14] <SlimeyPete> erm
[01:14] <mapp> How can i scp files from remote source -> local but keep the dir structyre so say i scp /global_ro/frank from a remot=e machine to /home/mark - how do i make it put it all in frank (the dir im grabbing) with the subdirs in frank like on server
[01:14] <SlimeyPete> firecraft: check the sites configs (in /etc/apache2/sites_enabled iirc)
[01:14] <renzo17> Filthpig: ktorrent is def available in ubuntu
[01:14] <frojnd> hello there I need someone that know how to use linux in literally.
[01:15] <Jowi> Filthpig, i know absolutely nothing at all. but a google search returned this: http://www.gpsdrive.de/ (native linux) and http://www.sping.com/seaclear/ (windows that is reported to work with wine)
[01:15] <firecraft> SlimeyPete thanks .. looking. brb
[01:15] <frojnd> How can I execute a command so amarok will shutdown in 15min ??
[01:15] <IdleOne> Filthpig: think tyou might need to talk with a few devs and see if they cant help you with what you need. ( do any coding? )
[01:15] <Filthpig> hmm
[01:15] <Filthpig> I found one
[01:15] <Filthpig> GpsDrive
[01:15] <mapp> aha i know how
[01:15] <mapp> neverminds
[01:15] <Filthpig> should work with all gpses using some standard
[01:15] <jrib> firecraft: you want to use public_html in your users directory?
[01:16] <UNDERsoN> I've got a problem. When my network is disconected  my gnome is very VERY slow. Other DE is fine. When I shutting down eth0 everything is fine. What's the problem
[01:16] <frojnd> hello there
[01:16] <Jowi> UNDERsoN, set a hostname
[01:16] <frojnd> How can I execute a command so amaro will shutdown in 15 min ??
[01:17] <Jowi> !hostname | UNDERsoN
[01:17] <ubotu> UNDERsoN: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab
[01:17] <mapp> write a script, use sleep and kill?
[01:17] <opensourceje2> Alloha people
[01:17] <jrib> frojnd: you can use 'at' to schedule a command.  Schedule one to kill the amarok process.  sleep works too like mapp suggests
[01:18] <opensourceje2> which version shall i download? this one: Ubuntu 7.04 - Supported to 2008 or Ubuntu 6.06 LTS - Supported to 2011
[01:18] <opensourceje2> ?
[01:18] <opensourceje2> the first is newer, but has a shorter support, that is the dillemma
[01:18] <renzo17> opensourceje2: what you using it for? for desktop/home 7.04
[01:18] <opensourceje2> voor server
[01:18] <opensourceje2> for
[01:18] <renzo17> then 6.06 may be better
[01:19] <opensourceje2> ok tnx and why?
[01:19] <opensourceje2> cause of the support?
[01:19] <renzo17> opensourceje2: support yes, and longer updates period, uses more stable software too
[01:19] <opensourceje2> ok tnx
[01:19] <jrib> opensourceje2: 6.06 will have older software as well, take that into consideration
[01:19] <TheZanke> Hope that helped...
[01:20] <opensourceje2> Yez that helps me very much :)
[01:20] <TheZanke> Heh, guess not..
[01:20] <opensourceje2> ?
[01:21] <renzo17> opensourceje2: i use 7.04 as a server without any problems, but obviously security updates and stuff will stop next year

[01:21] <galaxy_> help !?
[01:21] <opensourceje2> ok :) i need linux for skool
[01:21] <jrib> galaxy_: do you still have the virtualbox deb?
[01:21] <galaxy_> yes
[01:21] <opensourceje2> and i think ubuntu is the best distro, cause the most paper is going around in ubuntu
[01:22] <jrib> galaxy_: close update-manager and open a terminal.  Then type 'sudo dpkg -i /path/to/virtualbox/deb'  change the path to whatever it is
[01:22] <mapp> hej opensourceje2, yes ubuntu is a good choice
[01:22] <mapp> or edubuntu for you, school kids
[01:22] <mapp> :>
[01:23] <teKnofreak> opensourceje2, if you can wait for another 22 days, you will get a newer LTS hopefully :D
[01:23] <opensourceje2> hehe ok tnx, but this is good for me now
[01:23] <keito> in firestarter when adding a new inbound rule for bittorrent should I select "when the source is...." 1) ANYONE or 2) IP, host or network?????
[01:23] <jrib> teKnofreak: gutsy isn't LTS, only hardy
[01:23] <teKnofreak> jrib, ohhh :-s
[01:23] <dolus> does anyone know how to read info from a windows share directly from the share instead of the cache?

[01:23] <mapp> opensourceje2, why do you need for school?
[01:24] <Le-Chuck_ITA> hi all, somebody knows why bug #49594 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/49594 is marked as "not in ubuntu"?
[01:24] <ni1s> Gah! During boot, Ubuntu tried to assemble my software raid(hda3 & hdb4) but failes, it tried to "bind" hda3 and hdb (no trailing number), in doing this, all the hdbN(1-4) dissapears, anyone seen this before?
[01:24] <Le-Chuck_ITA> how can I make it "in ubuntu"?
[01:24] <Le-Chuck_ITA> it is very important for me to end this morning bug reporting session :)
[01:24] <eevar2> any known issues with setting up lvm on a raid volume with the server install?
[01:25] <opensourceje2> i need to make a exam about linux and now i use BSD, but i wanna make that exam very good, so i take some linux distro to excercise and ubuntu was my first touch with opensource (desktop)
[01:25] <mapp> noo
[01:25] <mapp> ah right, bsd cool
[01:26] <opensourceje2> so when i need a serious linux server in future i definitly take ubuntu
[01:26] <dolus> does anyone know how to read info from a windows share directly from the share instead of the cache?
[01:26] <mariqn> I install g++(Gnu c++ compiler)  from sinaptic but now i can't find from where to start the program.Ideas?
[01:26] <eevar2> nothing seems to happen when i try to create a logical volume
[01:26] <jrib> Le-Chuck_ITA: that's weird, try #ubuntu-bugs or #launchpad maybe
[01:27] <opensourceje2> i hope in a few years that Ubuntu is taking the desktopmarket
[01:27] <opensourceje2> that is a very interesting economic situation
[01:27] <Le-Chuck_ITA> thanks, jrib
[01:27] <Le-Chuck_ITA> nobody is listening to ubuntu-bugs
[01:27] <Le-Chuck_ITA> trying lanuchpad
[01:27] <mapp> well its going strong, obviously lots will stay windows-older people/computer illiterate may not change
[01:27] <cardone> hi all
[01:27] <mapp> Le-Chuck, maybe they are asleep/at work, just tell them in chan so they know
[01:28] <opensourceje2> mapp, that people are not openminded, the must see an Desktopenviroment like a car
[01:28] <cardone> I have a problem with xorg configuration
[01:28] <opensourceje2> they
[01:28] <SlimeyPete> mariqn: type "g++" in a terminal
[01:28] <firecraft> excellent SlimeyPete that worked out pretty nice :)
[01:28] <teKnofreak> cardone, spell it out
[01:28] <cardone> I have a  widescreen
[01:28] <SlimeyPete> mariqn: see "man g++" for instructions
[01:28] <jrib> !enter | cardone
[01:28] <SlimeyPete> firecraft: :)
[01:28] <ubotu> cardone: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:28] <jxxxt> marign, I would open a terminal and type the program name <enter>
[01:28] <renzo17> cardone: whats the problem
[01:28] <kdxx> i am trying to save the .deb package from this site http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html and then install it but im having trouble, how should i save it to my computer so that it can be properly installed?
[01:28] <dolus> does anyone know how to read info from a windows share directly from the share instead of the cache?
[01:29] <mapp> kdxx, wget it?
[01:29] <teKnofreak> kdxx, try wget -c url
[01:29] <mapp> dolus; an nfs share?
[01:29] <mapp> tekno; wget :) but what does the added -c do?
[01:29] <jrib> !envy | kdxx
[01:29] <ubotu> kdxx: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[01:29] <cardone> my problem is that my widescreen dysplay like a non widescreen
[01:29] <mapp> cardone; edit xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[01:29] <cardone> I have an nvidia and xorg seems correctly configured
[01:29] <Le-Chuck_ITA> mapp
[01:29] <teKnofreak> cardone, mean your screen is not completely occupied by desktop ?
[01:30] <Le-Chuck_ITA> mapp: solved
[01:30] <Le-Chuck_ITA> I added an ubuntu package
[01:30] <cardone> yes teKnofreak
[01:30] <ni1s> During boot, Ubuntu tried to assemble my software raid(hda3 & hdb4) but failed, it tried to "bind" hda3 and hdb(no trailing number), in doing this, all the hdbN(1-4) dissapears, making it impossible to mount it manually, does anyone know what's going on here?
[01:30] <mapp> Le-Chuck_ITA,;good what was it
[01:30] <Le-Chuck_ITA> may be gnome-session is no longer the name of an ubuntu package
[01:30] <Le-Chuck_ITA> thank you anyway
[01:30] <renzo17> cardone: if you have nvidia-settings installed you can use that to set up your xorg.conf with correct resolutions
[01:31] <teKnofreak> mapp, -c continues download if it gets disconn in the middle

[01:35] <IdleOne> is there a command that will list all user accounts ( not just logged on ) ?
[01:35] <Jowi> UNDERsoN, did it help?
[01:36] <teKnofreak> IdleOne, will not `ls /home` satisfy you ?
[01:36] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> hey all, anyone know where I can get X11R5 compatibility libraries for Feisty Fawn?
[01:37] <IdleOne> ls /home will list all dir in /home? I want to know the user accounts
[01:37] <galaxy_> jrib, http://img129.imageshack.us/my.php?image=untitlednu3.gif
[01:37] <IdleOne> hmmm teKnofreak ok that worked
[01:37] <IdleOne> teKnofreak: ty
[01:37] <teKnofreak> IdleOne, /home contains home dirs of all users.. hence it gives the user names
[01:38] <teKnofreak> IdleOne, but this trick doesn't work on users without their own home dir
[01:38] <IdleOne> teKnofreak: is it possible to have hidden user accounts?
[01:38] <teKnofreak> IdleOne, there can be users without a home dir, but mostly system users
[01:38] <bain> alo
[01:38] <Karotte> hmm a question regarding destkop effects
[01:39] <Karotte> is this just activating beryl in the background?
[01:39] <firecraft> erm
[01:39] <IdleOne> teKnofreak: what I am trying to see is if there are any user accounts I dont know about that should not be there
[01:39] <Karotte> if yes, how can I configure the effects?
[01:39] <yjwong> /etc/password contains the usernames, home directories, shells, of all users
[01:39] <jrib> galaxy_: you need to _close_ update-manager and any other package managent software
[01:39] <IdleOne> yjwong: I'll have a look ty
[01:39] <teKnofreak> IdleOne, then /home will help
[01:39] <opensourceje2> bye all
[01:40] <ni1s> During boot, Ubuntu tried to assemble my software raid(hda3 & hdb4) but failed, it tried to "bind" hda3 and hdb(no trailing number), in doing this, all the hdbN(1-4) dissapears, making it impossible to mount it manually, does anyone know what's going on here?
[01:40] <bullgard4> Why does Linux in achware.h suggest a PM_TIMER__FREQUENCY = 3.579545 MHz?
[01:40] <yjwong> Karotte, the "Desktop Effects" program enables only Compiz
[01:40] <firecraft> how do i set up the userdir for apache2 i mean where do i look into for that that conf file.. so users added can access their invidual pages with http://ip/~user
[01:40] <jrib> firecraft: sudo a2enmod userdir
[01:41] <yjwong> and by default, there are no programs to configure the effects except through gconf-editor
[01:41] <bain> firecraft: msg me ..
[01:41] <teKnofreak> ni1s, we can see your question, be patient to find whether some one answers your question, if not am sorry
[01:41] <Karotte> yjwong: okay so if I want beryl I still have to install xgl/beryl itself
[01:41] <firecraft> jrib that simple ? ~.^
[01:41] <jrib> firecraft: yes
[01:41] <yjwong> Karotte, yes. But i recommend Compiz Fusion over Beryl
[01:41] <yjwong> unless you have problems with Compiz Fusion previously
[01:41] <bain> or that ;P
[01:41] <ni1s> teKnofreak, Sorry, getting frustrated :(
[01:42] <Karotte> yjwong: uhm that isn't in Feisty is it?
[01:42] <yjwong> bain, isn't Ubuntu's Apache configured by default to serve files in ~/public_html/?
[01:42] <teKnofreak> ni1s, no use in getting frustrated in a public channel full of volunteers
[01:42] <heyadayo> hello
[01:42] <tiger_> 
[01:42] <teKnofreak> yjwong, you have to enable it IIRC
[01:42] <bain> yjwong: nope ..
[01:42] <Karotte> yjwong: I'll give it a try if you tell me where I can get it :)
[01:42] <teKnofreak> it is commented out

[01:43] <heyadayo> I'm having trouble unblocking the postgres port... I tried this line: "iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport postgres -j ACCEPT" but i still can't connnect. Any ideas?
[01:43] <tiger_>   hehe
[01:43] <yjwong> thanks for the info, teKnofreak and bain :P
[01:43] <yjwong> didn't know that
[01:43] <tiger_> thank
[01:43] <teKnofreak> firecraft, better check about VirtualHost and Alias for apache2.conf
[01:43] <bain> yjwong: you enable it using the command jrib pasted .. or by adding the -D USERDIR to startup command ..
[01:43] <dolus> does anyone know how to read info from a windows share directly from the share instead of the cache?
[01:44] <yjwong> Karotte, Compiz Fusion is actually Compiz plus many more plugins
[01:44] <firecraft> that's neat jrib  thanks ;)
[01:44] <IdleOne> Skyline_Nismo: #ubuntu-offtopic sometimes is a good distraction
[01:44] <yjwong> those plugins are available as the packages compiz-fusion-plugins-*
[01:44] <jrib> firecraft: np
[01:44] <labmicro4> heyadayo, the default port of postgres is 5432.
[01:44] <teKnofreak> firecraft, you can add a vhost or alias/scriptalias entry to /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/00-default to use any of the dirs in /home/user for serving files on the server
[01:44] <Karotte> yjwong: okay but how do I install it?
[01:45] <firecraft> teKnofreak its all set already :p
[01:45] <labmicro4> heyadayo, try to change --dport postgres to --dport 5432. Is an idea

[01:58] <labmicro4> vinicri, Bluefish ?
[01:58] <Amaranth> firecraft: pgrep Xgl

[01:58] <chelo77> vinicri:  NVU
[01:59] <Amaranth> firecraft: our compiz automatically detects what you have and adjusts itself accordingly
[01:59] <firecraft> that doesn't return anything Amaranth
[01:59] <HHH_AI> hi!
[01:59] <Amaranth> firecraft: You're not using Xgl then. Not a big deal if beryl already works
[01:59] <HHH_AI> I've a little problem... i think most of you find that funny.. but i don't get a .run file installed....
[02:00] <HHH_AI> could someone help me? my ubuntu can't execute this kind of file... Oo
[02:00] <firecraft> ahh ok but Amaranth little confused.
[02:01] <savetheWorld> HHH_AI: what does the file command say about that run file?
[02:01] <renzo17> HHH_AI: what is the file and how are you trying to install it?

[02:01] <Amaranth> firecraft: it's my repo with the updated compiz and the fusion addons
[02:02] <lotus-blade> umbuntu
[02:02] <Amaranth> firecraft: the compiz that shipped with feisty was an embarrassment

[02:05] <rainerf> hi all! is there some way to install specific packages from gutsy in feisty without doing a complete dist-upgrade?
[02:06] <renzo17> HHH_AI: this may help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5246
[02:06] <rainerf> i don't want to update to the beta of gutsy, but i need the newer nvidia driver...
[02:06] <Tomcat_> rainerf: There is no beta yet ;)
[02:06] <Tomcat_> rainerf: And using the gutsy nvidia driver most likely won't work.
[02:06] <chelo77> rainerf:  you can allways try but dont forget to copy xorg.conf in case you know what :)
[02:07] <rainerf> Tomcat_: hehe, k, i don't want to install the alpha either ;)...
[02:07] <Tomcat_> rainerf: You can try envy: http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[02:07] <firecraft> rainerf ?
[02:07] <firecraft> what alpha ?
[02:07] <renzo17> rainerf: you could always try installing the latest nvidia driver available on the nvidia website
[02:07] <yjwong> !envy
[02:07] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[02:07] <rainerf> Tomcat_: hm, isn't there some way to tell aptitude or something to just pull in the one package from gutsy (with its dependencies of course)?
[02:08] <Tomcat_> rainerf: There is, but it would also install the gutsy kernel... and this might break hundreds of other things.
[02:08] <renzo17> HHH_AI: this may be a better guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnemyTerritory
[02:08] <Tomcat_> rainerf: Drivers are not just like applications, they are tied to the kernel.
[02:08] <hottiger> in #gaysm.de
[02:08] <HHH_AI> renzo17: same thing.... starts decrompressing and then it says that it can't find setup.sh etc
[02:09] <rainerf> Tomcat_: hm, i don't mind installing the newer kernel, been using gentoo for years.. i just don't want to clutter up my fs with installing the proprietary driver from their script...
[02:09] <Tomcat_> rainerf: envy is most probably the easiest way to get a new nvidia driver. Not that I ever used it. :)
[02:09] <Tomcat_> rainerf: In that case you should find out how to package a self-compiled nvidia driver... still easier than pulling the gutsy kernel imho... but that might be wrong. :)
[02:10] <rainerf> Tomcat_: hehe, the message from ubotu makes me wonder if envy is so good ;)
[02:10] <Tomcat_> rainerf: Seeing that many people want newer nvidia drivers, I'm pretty sure somebody already packaged it anyway... try the forums?
[02:10] <chelo77> no one who can help me with my doomed wireless keyboard i have??
[02:10] <TataraKutere> hello guys
[02:11] <rainerf> Tomcat_: yeah, i've been searching for it, but all i could find was a hotwo which was using the installer's script
[02:11] <rainerf> Tomcat_: how would i tell aptitude to install just that one package + deps of gutsy?
[02:11] <TataraKutere> i really need an URGENT help about important but easyt things for all my files situations..
[02:11] <hottiger> \server irc.fu-berlin.de
[02:11] <hottiger> \disconnect
[02:11] <Tomcat_> rainerf: Also, manually installing the driver won't clutter your fs... I'm pretty sure it's only a couple of files in a seperate directory in /lib/modules.
[02:11] <rainerf> Tomcat_: in case something breaks that's not too bad, i'd just install kubuntu again ;)
[02:11] <eevar2> i'm having problems trying to use LVM on top of a raid-1 array. is that impossible from the start, am i doing something wrong, or is the ubuntu (server) installer bugged?

[02:11] <TataraKutere> can anybody do this? i have to rescue my files from ntfs drives, and need permission to do that in ubuntu

[02:12] <piti> hi everyone. I want to know where an app is trying to use a shared library from (googleearth -> libXdamage.so.1) I have it but don't know where I should link it
[02:12] <hawk> hottiger: "/", not "\"
[02:12] <yjwong> hottiger, use the other slash
[02:12] <gumuz> aynone know why a shell script would act differently when run for a cron vs from the commandline?
[02:12] <renzo17> TataraKutere: so you need to backup files on an ntfs partition?
[02:12] <rainerf> Tomcat_: hm.. i'd still prefer using the one package from gutsy... just can't figure out how to install it in feisty...
[02:12] <Tomcat_> rainerf: No idea about the gutsy kernel thing... there must be some documentation online, because I heard it's necessary for feisty users on MacBook to use a newer kernel (because of wireless)
[02:13] <TataraKutere> renzo17: no, i need to back them up from that partition
[02:13] <TataraKutere> i have 2 hdd's
[02:13] <Tomcat_> rainerf: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=511974

[02:13] <TataraKutere> one for ubuntu and one for xp
[02:13] <renzo17> TataraKutere: so can you see the ntfs drive in ubuntu?

[02:13] <TataraKutere> yes i can see renzo17
[02:13] <SireeBob> Whenever I switch from X to a virtual terminal, the console font is reset to VGA (from Fixed) along with the encoding (seemingly, because programs like 'aptitude' have messed-up line drawing). Anyone know of a way to make console fonts/encodings *stick* when switching to/from X, or if this is a known problem?
[02:14] <SireeBob> I'm using Feisty i386.
[02:14] <rainerf> Tomcat_: aah, thanks a lot, that was exactly what i was looking for :)
[02:14] <chelo77> TataraKutere:  try this i find it :  sudo mkdir /media/win
[02:14] <chelo77> sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /media/win -o defaults,umask=0
[02:14] <chelo77> ls /media/win
[02:14] <Tomcat_> rainerf: It even has some suggestions for nvidia ;)
[02:14] <renzo17> TataraKutere: so why not just copy files from your ntfs over to your linux partition?
[02:14] <chelo77> then just copy those files to your /home folder
[02:14] <TataraKutere> renzol17: i can't, because i have to tidy them and burn to dvd most

[02:15] <renzo17> TataraKutere: i dont understand what the problem is?
[02:16] <TataraKutere> renzol17: i need to know only two things: 1st: could the xp viruses can still remain there if i copy them to linux
[02:17] <ss_> malang
[02:17] <chelo77> if you just copy them,they are still there :)
[02:17] <gnuskool> switchcat, does alsamixer show green on line in?
[02:17] <TataraKutere> 2nd is: how can i get the rights to write (or delete) on ntfs drives from ubuntu
[02:17] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > TataraKutere (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:17] <renzo17> TataraKutere: you could delete them (with ntfs-3g) but i wouldnt recommend that since you may screw your XP setup

[02:30] <Filthpig> except I cannot connect to the network
[02:30] <gilles> I have problems with the instalation of nvidia drivers
[02:31] <Filthpig> I suspect ubuntu is messing things up a little, because the adapter -sorta- works in ubuntu, just not with wep/wpa enabled

[02:35] <gilles> I have a nvidia 7600 gs , kubuntu 7.04 kernel 2.6.20-16generic
[02:36] <renzo17> gilles: when it screws press Ctrl + Alt + F1, log in and run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"  ----- go through selecting defaults till you get to driver and select "nv", that will give you back X and you can then try and sort it out
[02:37] <gilles> I can't do ctrl+alt+F1 but I reboot in safe mode and change the driver name in xorg.conf

[02:41] <Filthpig> from nvidias homepage?
[02:42] <gnuskool> switchcat, you doing something similiar to this http://audacity.sourceforge.net/manual-1.2/tutorial_basics_4.html ?

[02:43] <renzo17> gilles: first off (without sounding patronising) do you actually have an nvidia card?
[02:43] <brownie17> renzo17, lol
[02:44] <gilles> filthip: first with apt-get install nvidia-glx-new it doesn't work so I install the official driver downloaded on the nvidia website so it doesn't work too so I finaly try with envy
[02:44] <MadCaddies> how do i list different levels availables for a man page?
[02:44] <gilles> renzo17: yes of course I have a gefore 7600 gs (rev2)

[02:46] <keito> yjwong: my MBR became corrupted so I ditched windows once and forever
[02:46] <Filthpig> you have a ntfs disk but not windows, keito? why? :S
[02:46] <renzo17> keito: lol, do you have a boot disk? i think chdisk is on there
[02:46] <gilles> yjwong yes 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 7600 GS (rev a2)
[02:47] <kubi> how do i enable direct rendering on my ati card. i intalled the drivers and its working but glx info says directrendering:no and also i have this message Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0".
[02:47] <keito> yjwong: i have ultimate boot disk
[02:47] <Filthpig> !ati | kubi
[02:47] <ubotu> kubi: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:47] <keito> Filthpig: read above ;0) i HAD ntfs
[02:47] <gilles> filthpig apt work fine but when I reboot I have a black screen when the X server load
[02:47] <keito> Filthpig: I want to backup the data then reformat to either ext3 or reiser etc etc
[02:48] <Flix_> Hheeeeeh
[02:48] <Flix_> It's a-me Flix
[02:48] <kubi> i have been to that binarydriverhowto page and tried everything but still no direct rendering. canot play games
[02:48] <Filthpig> gilles: did you install the right package?
[02:48] <renzo17> keito: http://www.schrockinnovations.com/chkdsk.php
[02:48] <keito> renzo17: will take a look
[02:48] <keito> cheers
[02:48] <misty_wrk> found it, db4.xutil
[02:49] <HA>  /join #travian.temppeliherrat eldorado
[02:49] <gilles> filthpig: yes I think because there is my graphic card in the suported list
[02:49] <keito> renzo17: i have a sata drive ;0)
[02:49] <gilles> I install the nvidia-glx-*new package
[02:50] <cl3ft> I installed my Nvidia card no problems but...  can anyone point me to a realy basic article on how groups work in ubuntu? I am trying to set up a shared folder for all users of the computer.
[02:50] <renzo17> you got the driver disk for it? should have a floppy with it on or a cd that came with your mobo
[02:50] <Filthpig> gilles: funky. I have the same card
[02:50] <Filthpig> no problems at all
[02:50] <Ex-Cyber> how can I change the default permissions/group for /dev/net/tun? I have this udev rule in 40-tun-rules, but /dev/net/tun still comes up as root/root: KERNEL=="tun", NAME="net/%k", MODE="0660", GROUP="kqemu"
[02:50] <switchcat> gnuskool - yup. :( dunno if im ever gonna get this to work.
[02:50] <Filthpig> gilles: did you use kubuntu?
[02:50] <gilles> Filthpig: cool
[02:51] <switchcat> its so simple with my digital voice recorder but i left that an hour away
[02:51] <gilles> Filthpig: yes I do
[02:51] <Filthpig> hmm
[02:52] <gilles> Filthpig: the black screen arrive when I must see the mouse cursor
[02:52] <Filthpig> does kubuntu have compiz pre-installed? In ubuntu I enabled my 3D acc through enabling Desktop Effects and installing drivers through there
[02:52] <gnuskool> switchcat, in system tray you got a volme icon, in preferences there is audigy listed in capture?
[02:52] <Filthpig> gilles: weird indeed
[02:52] <Filthpig> !kubuntu
[02:53] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[02:53] <Filthpig> you can check for help over there, too
[02:53] <jaw> hi, i want to install sun-java6-jre onto Dapper Drake 6.06 LTS -- is that in some repository? I found it in deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty multiverse, but that's for fiesty
[02:54] <Paddy_EIRE> !info sun-java6-jre
[02:54] <ubotu> sun-java6-jre: Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 (architecture independent files). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 6-00-2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 6176 kB, installed size 14148 kB
[02:54] <Filthpig> ah, gilles, I believe I know your problem
[02:54] <firecraft> Amaranth must i need dist-upgrade? right now i have  2.6.20-15-generic
[02:54] <Filthpig> when I think back I had a similar problem
[02:54] <gvsa123> ay... i've installed avidemux, kino, cinelerra... anymore suggestions for a simple video editing software that's not too complicated, but has features for a home user who just wants to combine clips, make transitions, maybe add a few text and the like?
[02:54] <gilles> Filthpig: really what is the solution
[02:54] <genii> When both a nic and a modem, the /etc/ppp/resolv.conf at first gets used, then when dhcp refreshes nic IP, pppd DNS fails as the regular /etc/resolv.conf now takes precedence again. Any way around this?
[02:54] <Filthpig> you have to blacklist the other driver
[02:54] <jaw> thanks Paddy_EIRE, that's in the Feisty repositories, but I'm on Dapper Drake -- can I just use it?
[02:54] <Filthpig> I do not remember how, though
[02:55] <Paddy_EIRE> hmm not sure jaw
[02:55] <inflex> I want to make a DVD ISO image of a directory on my HDD, what's the best software for that ?
[02:55] <Filthpig> !blacklist
[02:55] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[02:55] <jaw> i'll just try it, Paddy_EIRE and see if there is an error -- otherwise I'll download and install the java binary directly from sun
[02:56] <firecraft> Amaranth i had a server shut down in terminal with compiz --replace with buncha errors.
[02:56] <Paddy_EIRE> yeah
[02:56] <renzo17> Filthpig: add it to /etc/modules/blacklist
[02:56] <gilles> is there anyone to explane me how to blacklist driver
[02:56] <heyadayo> labmicro4: no luck
[02:56] <Filthpig> !blacklist | gilles
[02:56] <ubotu> gilles: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u

[03:02] <jrib> heyadayo: pastebinning the output of 'sudo iptables -L' may help
[03:02] <taime1> renzo17: been at this for 8 hrs, nvidia-settings thinks i have only one res also.. and will not allow me to change it
[03:03] <Chinaski1> i use tracker 0.6.0
[03:03] <renzo17> taime1: 8 hours, that impressive.....have you tried adding the resoltuions to your xorg.conf?
[03:03] <Chinaski1> ubuntu 7.0.4
[03:03] <taime1> renzo17: yes, i have tried entering all, one, none, you name it. and after reconfiguring x GOD knows how many times, still at 800x600....
[03:04] <Filthpig> taime1: did you install via repos? which card do you have?
[03:04] <taime1> this problem is totally uneffected by what is in xorg.conf
[03:04] <Vlet> Anyone know of a way to defragment an ntfs partition from within ubuntu?
[03:04] <jaw> thanks Paddy_EIRE, I just installed the latest self extracting bin from sun
[03:04] <erUSUL> yeniklasorr: what didn't work?
[03:04] <taime1> Filthpig: yes. i installed the correct driver for my geforce 7600.

[03:05] <gvsa123> anyone here doing simple video editing on ubuntu?
[03:06] <NET||abuse> gvsa123, hehe, I hear alot of negative talk about video editing on linux in general
[03:06] <taime1> IF it helps, this began when i upgraded my card from an older nvidia, and thus, ubuntu recognized the need for a newer driver. but then all the correct resolutions i was experiencing uder the old card are now unobtainable...
[03:06] <NET||abuse> gvsa123, are you using any package at the moment?
[03:06] <erUSUL> yeniklasorr: you mean that they are printing things to the terminal?
[03:06] <NET||abuse> gvsa123, or are you hunting for a name of a package?
[03:06] <yeniklasorr> erUSUL : yes
[03:06] <Paddy_EIRE> !anyone | gvsa123

[03:08] <tinin> Hi, does anybody know about Nx? How can I make this machine to act as a server?, I have only found a gui to use the clien
[03:08] <erUSUL> yeniklasorr: you can no avoid that by just putting the in background just redirect the output to /dev/null or any other file... e.g. './somefile 2&>1 /dev/null &' that will redirect normal autput and errors to /dev/null (the black hole of any unix ;))
[03:08] <gvsa123> NET||abuse: anymore suggestion? a simple linux version of MS movie maker would do for my needs
[03:09] <NET||abuse> well this is the problem, :P not sure what is any use on that front

[03:11] <taime1> After upgrading to new nvidia driver (upgraded card), i have one resolution, 800x600. problem is unaffected by xorg.conf, nvidia-settings will not allow change in res, and reconfiguring x is usless. What Am I Doing Wrong?
[03:11] <simianspaceman> use envy
[03:11] <simianspaceman> taime1
[03:11] <taime1> yes
[03:11] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: i'll check it out
[03:11] <Vlet> taime1: That will change in Gutsy.. for now you'll need to edit your xorg.conf
[03:11] <Moniker42> how do i monitor the temp of my graphics card?
[03:11] <simianspaceman> envy is a program that lets you install and configure ati an nvidia drivers
[03:11] <Vlet> taime1: yeah, or use envy :)
[03:11] <Tomcat_> !envy
[03:11] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[03:12] <yjwong> Moniker42, nvidia has its own thermal monitor in nvidia-settings
[03:12] <taime1> Vlet: the problem is not affected by whats in xorg.conf.... i wish it were that easy
[03:12] <yjwong> as for the others, i'm not too sure
[03:12] <Moniker42> yjwong, i just found it thanks :)
[03:12] <Vlet> taime1: Try out envy then
[03:12] <renzo17> !envy
[03:12] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[03:13] <renzo17> just a warning though, i've never had problems with it
[03:13] <simianspaceman> I have been having this problem with soft lock ups and x.org restarting i get the error message BUG: soft lockup on CPU#0. Any ideas?
[03:13] <erUSUL> yeniklasorr: no problem ;)
[03:14] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: any special reason why there aren't included in the repositories? like instability or something?
[03:14] <gvsa123> *they
[03:14] <keito> HEY is there a way to make appointments in the calendar (accessible from the time/date on the top panel in gnome) not open in evolution and open with another app ie; sunbird or thunderbird with lightning extension?
[03:14] <marco_> salve
[03:14] <NET||abuse> Paddy_EIRE, hehe, i suck, i've never gone to that site before.. awsome
[03:15] <Paddy_EIRE> gvsa123, not really sure... although many of those apps can be found in the repos
[03:15] <Paddy_EIRE> NET||abuse, :D
[03:15] <marco_> can we speak italian?
[03:15] <rm130> Is there some program that can detect if I have the right drivers or not for my computer?
[03:15] <rm130>  similar to driver genius for windows
[03:15] <rm130> because I'm pretty sure I don't have the correct drivers for this machine's video card
[03:15] <Paddy_EIRE> NET||abuse, here is the repo if you would like to recieve updates from getdeb for any apps you install there 'deb http://ubuntu.org.ua/ getdeb/'
[03:15] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: ah yeah... hmmm... got a bet... LiVES... would you happen to have used any of these?
[03:15] <NET||abuse> marc__, that depends, can you? :)
[03:16] <renzo17> rm130: not that i know of, but if everything works you probably have the right drivers, the only two you really have to worry about are video drivers and wireless drivers
[03:16] <rm130> renzo17, Yeah I'm trying to get the correct video drivers
[03:16] <renzo17> rm130: what videa card have you got?
[03:16] <rm130> it's an intergrated card
[03:17] <rm130> how can I check?
[03:17] <Paddy_EIRE> gvsa123, never used it PiTiVi is nice and simple though
[03:17] <renzo17> any idea what chipset? the command "lspci -v" will give you some info
[03:17] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: i'll check that out as well...
[03:17] <Paddy_EIRE> gvsa123, and pitivi is in the repos
[03:17] <Paddy_EIRE> !info pitivi | gvsa123

[03:20] <rm130> now like I can't do anything 3D
[03:20] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: isn't there some kind of inconsistency when an app is installed and removed differently... i.e. synaptics and then aptitude or apt-get

[03:21] <kubi> im on feisty

[03:22] <profanephobia> kousotu, it does for me
[03:22] <rm130> Vlet, lspci -v
[03:22] <yjwong> noodles13, i think you can add the folder as a Bookmark in Nautilus, then it will appear within the Places menu

[03:22] <rm130> thanks renzo17
[03:22] <rm130> Vlet, it says  Capabilities: <access denied> under some stuff
[03:22] <Vlet> rm130: yeah, I guess you need to run that as: sudo lspci -v
[03:23] <renzo17> rm130: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome hope that helps.......scroll down for 3d
[03:23] <Vlet> rm130: that likely means that regular users do not have the rights to probe hardware for certain things - doesn't necessarily mean you can't use em for 3d apps

[03:26] <kousotu> RickH: they're in ubuntu, gstreamer plugins
[03:26] <rm130> renzo17, can I get this from synaptic?
[03:26] <renzo17> !universe | rm130
[03:26] <ubotu> rm130: 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
[03:26] <RickH> kousotu:  Do they come with docs on how to use?
[03:27] <renzo17> rm130: synaptic IS apt-get
[03:27] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: for the most part probably.. he was pretty impressed with the ubuntu vs vista video on youtube...
[03:27] <rm130> renzo17, yeah but when I try to do apt-get in terminal it doesn't work but when I use synaptic it does
[03:27] <rm130> in terminal it keeps saying that my ip is refused
[03:27] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: that's something i'm not sure i'm knowledgeable myself... lol
[03:27] <renzo17> rm130: if synaptic is open you cant use the termnal, you can only use one at a time
[03:27] <MBR666> i mucked up my fstab, mtab files. i want to mount hdb1 to /media/hdb1 it's a fat32 drive. i made an attempt to format it to ext3 but it's been hosed ever since.
[03:28] <rm130> renzo17, yeah I have synaptic closed
[03:28] <genii> When connected pppd, DHCP refresh on eth0 makes /etc/resolv.conf default again when should stay /etc/ppp/resolv.conf until modem disconnects. any ideas?
[03:28] <Jack_Sparrow> rm130: apt-get install xxx dosent work but synaptic does?
[03:28] <rm130> yeah
[03:28] <sandesh> while compiling c programs in ubuntu its showing  " error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
[03:28] <renzo17> rm130: use synaptic then, its the same either way
[03:28] <sandesh> wht to do??
[03:28] <rm130> yeah looking for: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome  under synaptic
[03:28] <Paddy_EIRE> gvsa123, before anyone switches to linux they need to educate themselves as much as possible.. as not to blame linux or ubuntu for whatever probs they have
[03:28] <keito> how do i unrar folders that are in 3 parts in ubuntu?????
[03:28] <jrib> !rar > keito (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:28] <switchcat> It's ALL BSD's FAULT!
[03:29] <jrib> sandesh: did you install build-essential?
[03:29] <kousotu> *sigh( damn firefox...
[03:29] <RickH> keito:  Open the first and the unrar utility should recognize the next parts
[03:29] <sandesh> no .. i will install
[03:29] <MBR666> how do i fix xubuntu 704 so that it automounts my drive again. and in the directory i want it mounted in?
[03:29] <sandesh> thanks jrib
[03:29] <keito> it hasn't been doing but I'll march on 80)
[03:29] <keito> jrib: ubotu not here?
[03:29] <keito> next one..... HEY is there a way to make appointments in the calendar (accessible from the time/date on the top panel in gnome) not open in evolution and open with another app ie; sunbird or thunderbird with lightning extension?

[03:30] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: yeah... so far the only difficulty i've had is adjusting to new applications and learning how to use them. plus learning the basic terminal commands of course... i try to keep away from that even tough a lot has been said of it's advantages... :)
[03:30] <rm130> weird..don't see it
[03:30] <ChTiPowA> Salut tout le monde :)
[03:30] <renzo17> rm130: have you enabled the multiverse and universe repos?

[03:30] <jrib> keito: don't use free...
[03:30] <keito> jrib: k
[03:31] <Paddy_EIRE> gvsa123, the terminal is quite simple irreplaceable... nothing cuts it outside of the cli
[03:31] <Paddy_EIRE> :D
[03:31] <ChTiPowA> Dites moi je recherche un site qui donne toutes les distributions Linux, j'en avais un il tait anglophone mais je me rappelle plus de quoi il s'agit ?
[03:31] <keito> nickrud: gutted
[03:31] <ChTiPowA> Quelqu'un se rappelle ?
[03:31] <rm130> I'm on main server
[03:31] <web_knows> what should I do if I get this: GPG error: http://security.ubuntu.com feisty-security Release: invalid signatures
[03:31] <keito> nickrud: would be awesome to use sunbird/lightning instead
[03:31] <rm130> yeah
[03:31] <rm130> got multiverse and universe
[03:31] <ChTiPowA> Hi :)
[03:31] <nickrud> keito: nah, evolution is the wave of the future ;)
[03:31] <ChTiPowA> Sry did not see that was english lol
[03:31] <web_knows> and then apt asks me to run apt-get update again
[03:31] <keito> nickrud: no hotmail
[03:31] <a[2121] e> hello
[03:32] <web_knows> but I got GPG error: http://security.ubuntu.com feisty-security Release: invalid signatures from apt-get update anyway
[03:32] <ChTiPowA> I'm looking for a website which give you all distributions linux, i had one but i don't remember
[03:32] <renzo17> rm130: close synaptic and run "sudo apt-get update" first, then try again
[03:32] <ChTiPowA> someone know that ?
[03:32] <nickrud> ChTiPowA: distrowatch.org
[03:32] <ChTiPowA> distrowatch thank you ^
[03:32] <nickrud> or net?
[03:32] <ChTiPowA> :)
[03:32] <renzo17> or com!
[03:32] <ChTiPowA> thank you nickrud  :))
[03:32] <jcaspe> whos better: linux or windows?
[03:33] <jrib> !offtopic | jcaspe
[03:33] <ubotu> jcaspe: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:33] <MBR666> that website already explains what i know. my problem is implementing it
[03:33] <private_guy> Hi guys :D
[03:33] <rm130> renzo17, see: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36430/
[03:33] <private_guy> I was just wondering If there is an FTP program for ubuntu and will Firewall block FTP connections? i'm currently using Ubuntu :)
[03:33] <jrib> !ftp | private_guy
[03:33] <tlucas> jcaspe, linux
[03:34] <ubotu> private_guy: FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[03:34] <ChTiPowA> nickrud, its distrowatch.com that works thank you very much :)
[03:34] <private_guy> Oh so
[03:34] <private_guy> whats the default FTP program
[03:34] <private_guy> which comes with Linux
[03:34] <nickrud> private_guy: gftp, ncftp, fireftp in firefox, and it doesn't block outgoing
[03:34] <private_guy> because im new at this :d
[03:34] <renzo17> rm130: thats weird. dunno if that means the repos are down or there is something wrong with your config
[03:34] <jrib> private_guy: nautilus is the default file browser on nautilus, it can view ftp as well
[03:34] <MBR666> how do i use fstab to automount correctly my hdb1 drive?
[03:34] <rm130> works for you?
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter | private_guy
[03:34] <ubotu> private_guy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:34] <jcaspe> tlucas: if linux is better, why lots of people keep using windows?
[03:35] <rm130> renzo17, I installed unichrome from synaptic but couldn't find openchrome
[03:35] <private_guy> Sorry ubotu, but I didn't get your question :(
[03:35] <jrib> MBR666: filesystem?
[03:35] <MBR666> i tried formatting my drive to another filesystem and then switched back. but it won't mount without being root now and not in the directory i specified
[03:35] <private_guy> *your telling m
[03:35] <private_guy> *me
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> jcaspe: Please take that to offtopic...
[03:35] <tlucas> jcaspe, because they often don't know that there is any alternative (other than Mac OS)
[03:35] <MBR666> jrib, i went from fat32 to ext3 and back to fat32.
[03:35] <tlucas> jcaspe, or, they think that it would be too techy or complicated
[03:35] <jrib> !vfat > MBR666 (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:36] <renzo17> rm130: go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome and scroll down to the "Deb packages Repo" and follow the instruction there
[03:36] <feklee_> Just thought to give Ubuntu a try, using the 6.10 image from http://www.thoughtpolice.co.uk/vmware/
[03:36] <tlucas> jcaspe, and also compatibility
[03:36] <feklee_> However, it doesn't boot under VMware
[03:36] <jrib> tlucas: #ubuntu-offtopic to discuss linux vs. windows, not here
[03:36] <b33r-> jcaspe, they are 2 different OS's you can't compare which one is better
[03:36] <feklee_> I get: Unknown interrupt or fault at EIP ...
[03:36] <tlucas> jrib, soory
[03:36] <nickrud> feklee_: then you'd probably be better off asking them how they built it
[03:37] <yjwong> feklee_, Ubuntu images are not known to have problems with VMWare
[03:37] <yjwong> except the Gutsy release of course (with vmhgfs and vmxnet)
[03:37] <feklee_> nickrud, I read in some forums that there's a problem with some CPUs and Ubuntu server's default kernel.
[03:37] <rm130> from the site: do I get http://www.openchrome.org/snapshots/ubuntu/xserver-xorg-driver-via_0.1.32-1_i386.deb
[03:37] <rm130> or: http://www.openchrome.org/snapshots/ubuntu/libxvmc_0.1.32-1_i386.deb
[03:37] <jultomten> hello
[03:37] <feklee_> yjwong, Seems that they've problems with certain CPUs.
[03:37] <jcaspe> tlucas: tnx, i just wondering of it...
[03:38] <feklee_> yjwong, I wonder whether there's a kernel option that solves the problem.
[03:38] <yjwong> feklee_, maybe that's it. VMWare is emulating/providing access to your true CPU anyway
[03:38] <tlucas> jcaspe, that's my hypothesis anyway
[03:38] <jultomten> will it be easy to upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy?
[03:38] <nickrud> jultomten: point and click
[03:38] <jrib> jultomten: update-manager will let you know and offer a button for you to press
[03:38] <jultomten> great
[03:38] <yjwong> feklee_, I'm not sure about noapic and similar things, but you can try
[03:38] <jultomten> i look forward to it
[03:39] <feklee_> yjwong, I assume that I'm out of luck - judging from what I found on the net (acpi=off doesn't work for me).  Hm, maybe I should try noapic, but I'm not too optimistic.
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> noapic works for me
[03:39] <jcaspe> well, that's great hypothesis. im sorry for my annoying question, anyway.
[03:39] <jultomten> my feisty has infact become worse since i first installed it
[03:39] <yjwong> ACPI shouldn't be the problem, because VMWare always reports power status as up, unless you checked the "Report battery information to guest" option
[03:40] <renzo17> rm130: could you pastebin you xorg.conf a sec /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:40] <private_guy> *Does MIRC work with Linux?
[03:40] <jultomten> hopefully gutsy will be more stable
[03:40] <reon> I need help resizing my Ubuntu partition. I deleted my windows partition which was the first one. I now want to resize ubuntu to the beginning of the old windows partition. Currently the space is unallocated but gparted wont allow me to resize it.
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> jultomten: What all did you install add or change
[03:40] <savetheWorld> private_guy: try it and see.
[03:40] <private_guy> Is that a Yes Or No savetheworld? lol
[03:40] <renzo17> reon: you cant format a mounted drive, you could use the gparted live cd
[03:40] <jultomten> i have done every update there is
[03:40] <rm130> You appear to be spamming the pastebin. I hate spammers so I won't let you. If you're not attempting to spam, please enable javascript so you can pass the antispam check
[03:41] <rm130> lol
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> reon: run livecd and unmount the partition to resize it...
[03:41] <jultomten> even Firefox is freezing now
[03:41] <savetheWorld> private_guy: its neither.  i dont know the answer but I know you can answer your own question.
[03:41] <yjwong> private_guy, there is no native mIRC for Linux
[03:41] <renzo17> rm130: teehee
[03:41] <private_guy> Are you talking to me rm130?
[03:41] <jultomten> and rythmbox wont play my music
[03:41] <jultomten> like it did before?
[03:41] <yjwong> you can, however, run it using WINE
[03:41] <rm130> no
[03:41] <ura> someone have installed oracle on ubuntu linux?
[03:41] <private_guy> Oh okay :D
[03:41] <rm130> I have javascript enabled
[03:41] <khermans__> how do i tell the find command to exclude some files?
[03:41] <private_guy> So guys, how do i connect via MIRC with Linux?
[03:41] <khermans__> assume i am using -iname
[03:42] <reon> Jack_Sparrow, renzo17, I know that and I'm trying from the livecd.
[03:42] <feklee_> yjwong, noapic doesn't solve the problem.  I read that one has to install the standard i386 kernel, but doing that would probably be a PITA.  I guess I'll just download a differen VMware image, e.g. the FreeBSD one (need sth. small, i.e. ca. 200MB, for doing some tests).
[03:42] <Frogzoo> khermans__: man find
[03:42] <rm130> whatever I'll find another pastebin site
[03:42] <SlimeyPete> private_guy: you can run it using Wine, but you might be better off using xchat or irssi.
[03:42] <khermans__> Frogzoo, i did dude
[03:42] <reon> Jack_Sparrow, renzo17, partitions are unmounted
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> reon: Note, if doing this changes the number of the Ub partition you will not be able to boot the install until you fix grub. sometimes better to leave a very samll partition where you removed windows
[03:42] <private_guy> Oh okay
[03:42] <private_guy> thanks guys
[03:42] <khermans__> Frogzoo, man find /exclude returns nothing
[03:42] <private_guy> goodbye for now :D
[03:42] <TataraKutere_> now, just one question, it's important again
[03:42] <rm130> renzo17, here you go: http://pastebin.com/m127c80cc
[03:42] <yjwong> feklee_, you could try. Personally, I've ever run into those kind of problems before. Good luck anyway :)
[03:43] <reon> Jack_Sparrow, no problem fixing grub here. what I cannot do is resize
[03:43] <feklee_> yjwong, Well, you probably have a better processor. :-) I'll probably try Ubuntu some other time.
[03:43] <lecchinoforever> hallo, i have some problems regarding fonts on console.. I use en_us keyboard keybindings but i read italian text and i get strange output, how do i fix it?
[03:43] <jpiccolo> how would i get php5 sources?
[03:43] <TataraKutere_> do the xp viruses remains when an infected file is copied to a linux partition and then back to an ntfs partition?
[03:43] <genii> yes
[03:43] <SlimeyPete> TataraKutere_: yep
[03:44] <asmarin> hi
[03:44] <TataraKutere_> SlimeyPete: is there any solution for that?
[03:44] <TataraKutere_> genii: is there any solution for that?
[03:44] <SlimeyPete> TataraKutere_: run a virus scanner. Other than that, no.
[03:44] <TataraKutere_> :)
[03:44] <asmarin> i have an old server with hoary and need to install packages from net, any knows an active mirror?
[03:44] <jpiccolo> virus scan in xp
[03:44] <asmarin> i cant upgrade it
[03:44] <asmarin> its on production
[03:44] <yjwong> jpiccolo, from the PHP site?
[03:44] <genii> TataraKutere_: Yes, you need to remove the virus natively from XP with a virus scanner/removal tool etc
[03:44] <jpiccolo> i thought there might be a way in apt-get
[03:44] <yjwong> or do you want the one that is source compiled for Ubuntu?
[03:45] <SlimeyPete> genii: ...or from Linux using clamav or AVG...
[03:45] <Frogzoo> khermans__: -false I'm thinking
[03:45] <Vlet> jpiccolo: php5-dev package maybe?
[03:45] <TataraKutere_> i had a comodo antivirus program, anybody has a better suggestion for an application to use on xp or virus defecting?
[03:45] <genii> SlimeyPete: AVG might do it if it uses the same definition file as the windoze version
[03:45] <CompJunki> ubuntu rules
[03:45] <CompJunki> lol
[03:45] <Karotte> hm, whenever something requires my user password (like synaptic and co), the password dialog pops up. The rest of the desktop is "faded to black" a little bit. This fade is really really slow/choppy, any idea why that happens?
[03:45] <yjwong> jpiccolo, I'm not sure of the right way to do it, but I remember the command is apt-src
[03:45] <CompJunki> everyone i recommend it
[03:45] <CompJunki> now
[03:45] <CompJunki> lol
[03:45] <Frogzoo> khermans__: also !
[03:45] <SlimeyPete> TataraKutere_: AVG's pretty good, for a free program.
[03:45] <CompJunki> linux is boss
[03:46] <nickrud> Karotte: not well implemented, maybe (I see it also)
[03:46] <genii> TataraKutere_: AVG antivirus, or AnitVir are top2 free ones
[03:46] <Vlet> Karotte: it is on most systems... I don't like it either
[03:46] <genii> *AntiVir
[03:46] <genii> bleh typos
[03:46] <CompJunki> lol
[03:46] <yjwong> Karotte, those effects aren't composited, i guess
[03:46] <TataraKutere_> alrite
[03:46] <lecchinoforever> hallo, i have some problems regarding fonts on console.. I use en_us keyboard keybindings but i read italian text and i get strange output, how do i fix it?
[03:46] <Karotte> okay ;)
[03:46] <CompJunki> you don't really need virus software on yout uboe system
[03:47] <TataraKutere_> genii, SlimeyPete: so you say there is no antivirus scanner program in linux which could also scan xp files...? am i right?
[03:47] <Karotte> nickrud, Vlet, yjwong: if you all see the same problem, I'll embrace it for the moment and no longer think about it ;)
[03:47] <renzo17> rm130: your xorg.conf looks fine..........i think your using the best driver for the job but i dont know why 3d doesnt work
[03:47] <jpiccolo> ok where would the sources for php5 be
[03:47] <hwang> 
[03:47] <reon> Anyone else got any ideas on how to resize my ubuntu partition ?
[03:47] <TataraKutere_> genii, SlimeyPete: so you say there is no antivirus scanner program in linux which could also scan xp files...? am i right?
[03:47] <CompJunki> hwang:  is chiness
[03:47] <jcaspe> reon: use gpedit
[03:48] <TataraKutere_> reon: did you tried gparted?
[03:48] <Vlet> Karotte: Just one of those things that we just need to bear with for the moment... give it time :)
[03:48] <jcaspe> reon:i mean gparted
[03:48] <Karotte> Vlet: no problem
[03:48] <TataraKutere_> genii, SlimeyPete: so you say there is no antivirus scanner program in linux which could also scan xp files...? am i right?
[03:48] <jcaspe> reon: yes
[03:48] <rm130> hmm
[03:48] <krammer> I cannot open the network settings Help please
[03:48] <yjwong> TataraKutere_, I thought there is ClamAV, AVG Free for Linux, etc.?
[03:48] <lecchinoforever> hallo, i have some problems regarding fonts on console.. I use en_us keyboard keybindings but i read italian text and i get strange output, how do i fix it? -- is may something with console-data or locales?
[03:49] <CompJunki> Can i work for you
[03:49] <lecchinoforever> mayb*
[03:49] <CompJunki> lol
[03:49] <reon> jcaspe, I'm trying to use gparted from the livedcd. I deleted my first windows partition, I unmounted all the volumes. gparted does not give me the option to resize using the preceding space.
[03:49] <TataraKutere_> yjwong, sorry, i couldn't understand what you said?
[03:49] <Karotte> Vlet: same thing with my I810 display driver and beryl blur effects.. From message board threats it seems that it's just not working with the driver version present in Feisty (did work with Eft). I'm hoping for 7.10 :)
[03:49] <jpiccolo> anyone know where source code is on edgy
[03:49] <Karotte> threads!
[03:49] <CompJunki> everyone should be coding for linux
[03:49] <Slart> TataraKutere_: not meaning to interrupt here.. but I think clamav scan for windows viruses.. afaik
[03:49] <Karotte> not threats. Please don't guantanamo me ;)
[03:49] <CompJunki> not a winblows system
[03:49] <CompJunki> fat32 caP
[03:49] <CompJunki> lol
[03:50] <CompJunki> its fucking shit
[03:50] <asmarin> exists any mirror repository for hoary?
[03:50] <CompJunki> sup cone
[03:50] <TataraKutere_> no, it's okay, i'm looking for advices Slart, i also heard that clamav does so..
[03:50] <stdin> !ohmy | CompJunki
[03:50] <rm130> renzo17, I think it is the openchrome driver that I need
[03:50] <ubotu> CompJunki: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:50] <jcaspe> reon: what do want to do in your hard drive anyway?
[03:50] <rm130> but there is no .deb for it and I can't get it via terminal
[03:50] <krammer> I cannot open the network settings Help please
[03:50] <CompJunki> lol
[03:50] <CompJunki> now i got attention
[03:51] <lecchinoforever> hallo, i have some problems regarding fonts on console.. I use en_us keyboard keybindings but i read italian text and i get strange output, how do i fix it? -- is maybe something with console-data or locales?

[03:55] <stdin> sandesh: don't, use the package from ubuntu
[03:55] <yjwong> sandesh, open a Terminal window, cd to the directory, then "sh <bin file>" (without the quotes)
[03:55] <stdin> !java | sandesh
[03:56] <rm130> renzo17, it wont let me save
[03:56] <dyrne> sandesh: is there a reason you didnt want to use repos?
[03:56] <ubotu> sandesh: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[03:56] <krammer> I hate to reinstall

[03:56] <renzo17> rm130: you know how to do that? if you get a black screen hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 then login and run "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf" to edit your xorg.conf from a terminal.
[03:56] <jcaspe> how to increase partition in ubuntu?

[03:56] <incorrect> what do people use these days for web site reports?
[03:56] <renzo17> rm130: open the xorg.conf with sudo....as in "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" then change and save it
[03:56] <nbkr> incorrect, awstats ?
[03:56] <keito> nickrud: is there a way to get hotmail in evolution?
[03:56] <nickrud> gilos: do gksu <app> , boom, you're root
[03:57] <yjwong> jcaspe, as in, increase the size of partitions or add a new partition?
[03:57] <incorrect> nbkr, i wondered if there was something new as it hasn't been updated since 205
[03:57] <incorrect> err 2005
[03:57] <jcaspe> increase the size of ubuntu partition
[03:57] <rm130> gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:57] <rm130> doesn't do anything in terminal
[03:58] <nickrud> keito: never tried it, but hotmail evolution has a lot of hits on google. Not the advice I'd want to give, but the top one is an ubuntu forum post ;)
[03:58] <Egoist> ...     ? :)

[03:58] <lecchinoforever> hallo, i have some problems regarding fonts on console.. I use en_us keyboard keybindings but i read italian text and i get strange output, how do i fix it? -- is maybe something with console-data or locales?
[03:58] <nickrud> gilos: install mysql-admin and run it as yourself ; use the mysql root password to log into mysql
[03:59] <yjwong> jcaspe, if you are referring to the root partition, then you have to boot from some other OS (i.e. Ubuntu Live CD and use the GNOME Partition Editor)
[03:59] <rm130> works
[03:59] <yjwong> Also, you can refer here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=363639
[03:59] <rm130> and just add: 	Option "VBEModes" "true"?
[03:59] <rm130> under section devices?
[03:59] <renzo17> yep

[04:01] <cwho> got a question regarding apt-get : I tried installing vmware-player, it failed (something about the vmnet failing). So I tried to uninstall it, and that failed too (same reason). Now stuck with vmware-player trying to uninstall each time I use apt-get...
[04:01] <MTecknology> any ideas?
[04:02] <nbkr> MTecknology, there is open-cobol. A cobol compiler.
[04:02] <Vlet> cwho: Paste the actual errors here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:02] <_Sick> isn't it possible to define following line in vhost.conf ? "ServerAlias myName.v2124.strato.de" ?

[04:03] <MTecknology> nbkr, So write it in vim or something then does open-cobol work like gcc ?
[04:03] <cwho> pasted in pastebin

[04:05] <erUSUL> !hi | modor
[04:05] <ubotu> modor: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:06] <jmanuel_cool> hello everubody
[04:06] <dmitry_> hey
[04:06] <modor> was wondering if anyone knows how to adjust dvd-rw speed beyond software's 6x
[04:07] <modor> have a 20x writer, 16x media, but tovid only allows 6x write
[04:07] <cwho> er tried: sudo dpkg -r --force-remove-reinstreq vmware-player but got this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36437/  ... I dont want to get vmware-player working anymore - just wish to remove it...
[04:07] <modor> or cd/dvd creator only allows 6x write
[04:08] <genii> TataraKutere_: Sorry for lag, was working. You can try using AVG from inside linux to scan and clean XP files.
[04:08] <jstarcher> when I try to mount this audio CD it says wrong fs type, what do I have to do?
[04:08] <Mastastealth> hey guys, I just updated this morning some stuff on the kernel, but now it seems I lost my GFX rendering. Looks like the restricted module is lagging behind a version or something, is that normal and when will the new one be out?
[04:08] <nbkr> jstarcher, Why do you want to mount an Audio CD?
[04:08] <jstarcher> nbkr, thought you had to? lol
[04:09] <Frogzoo> jstarcher: audio cds don't have a file system & won't mount
[04:09] <nbkr> jstarcher, Not for listening to it.
[04:09] <jstarcher> Frogzoo, that makes sense then haha
[04:09] <SlimeyPete> Mastastealth: yeah, it's normal. I expect the new one will be out when Gutsy is release (in October, supposedly)
[04:09] <jstarcher> well I'm trying to convert the files to mp3, any suggestions?
[04:09] <nbkr> jstarcher, ripperX
[04:09] <Frogzoo> jstarcher: just rip it - eg. juicer
[04:10] <Mastastealth> uh, so I can't have hardware acceleration till October? :P
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> sound juicer is what I use
[04:10] <nbkr> jstarcher, But infact - why not rip it to ogg?
[04:10] <yjwong> jstarcher, Applications -> Sound & Video -> Sound Juicer
[04:10] <genii> When connected pppd, DHCP refresh on eth0 makes /etc/resolv.conf default again when should stay /etc/ppp/resolv.conf until modem disconnects. any ideas? Don't want to do something like ifconfig eth0 down before dialling, also shouldn't need to.
[04:10] <Mastastealth> is there a way to downgrade my kernel then?
[04:10] <modor> any reason Feistry would limit writer to 1/3 hardware's design?
[04:10] <DenysLins> DenysLins: HI
[04:10] <jstarcher> nbkr, well it's going on a website which uses a flash mp3 player
[04:10] <modor> oops
[04:10] <nbkr> modor, no - it shouldn't do that.
[04:10] <modor> feisty, i meant
[04:10] <skyfalcon866> could i upgrade my kernel?
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> modor: Will k3b write a data dvd faster than 6x
[04:10] <yjwong> Mastastealth, you don't have to downgrade the kernel
[04:11] <modor> sparrow, i haven't tried that one, just tovid and cd/dvd creator
[04:11] <yjwong> you could re-compile the kernel module for your driver
[04:11] <skyfalcon866> modor: it can but it all depends on your dvd drive and the dvd
[04:11] <dmitry_> modor well u can guess that it didnt detect your dvd-rw properly so it set it to most common settings that work for any dvd-rw
[04:11] <modor> both limit writing disc to 6x
[04:11] <Mastastealth> yjwong, and how would I go about doing that?
[04:12] <Frogzoo> genii: ummm, why are you refreshing your ip?
[04:12] <yjwong> depending on your graphics card, Mastastealth
[04:12] <genii> Frogzoo: Dhclient is automatically doing this.
[04:12] <modor> i see, any suggestion to changing these settings?
[04:12] <Mastastealth> also, can someone check what version of the restricted-modules they have? I'm at 2.6.20.5-16.29...
[04:12] <Mastastealth> yjwong: I use an Nvidia.
[04:13] <dmitry_> Mastastealth: why not install the driver from nvidia site?
[04:13] <yjwong> Mastastealth, you have installed the nvidia drivers through restricted-manager, then the drivers should still work
[04:13] <yjwong> otherwise, you need to grab the installer from the nvidia site
[04:14] <yjwong> and re-run the install like you did when installing the first time
[04:14] <PriitM> Hi, I'm using Ubuntu 7.04. The problem is that Java font is too big(I think it's 17-22), is there a way to make it smaller?
[04:14] <yjwong> i hope that helps :P
[04:14] <Mastastealth> ugh.  I don't get what the problem is though. All the restricted-modules thing has to do is keep in sync with the kernel right? I don't have to go install or recompile from other sources when it can work with some simple apt-get management...:(
[04:14] <asmith42a> Sorry about that. I got a phone call right after I asked.
[04:14] <Frogzoo> genii: you're running ppp & dhcp on the same interface ??
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> modor: K3B does not limit it to 6x.. I just checked
[04:14] <modor> skyfalcon, dmitry, is their a way to tweak settings to allow faster write for dvdrw?
[04:15] <asmith42a> Re: "scan" for hardware. I want to setup a new monitor. I connected it, but I don't see any new display modes listed.
[04:15] <onats> uhey
[04:15] <onats> is there a gui for the aticonfig?
[04:15] <genii> Frogzoo: ppp connection is a modem, which is being used to connect to internet. eth0 is on the LAN and autoassigned by dhcp. Every time dhclient auto refreshes the LAN ip it's resolv.conf now takes precedence over the /etc/ppp/resolv.conf which is being used for the internet connection, making DNS useless again.
[04:15] <yjwong> problem is, each new kernel upgrade will create a new directory in /lib/, and a new kernel will read from the new directory
[04:15] <gotiniens> does somebody has any experience with cisco clean access manager?
[04:15] <asmith42a> My thinking was that I needed to tell the system that there was a new monitor by scanning for it.
[04:16] <yjwong> Mastastealth, you can copy the old kernel module from the old directory to the new one, but i'm not sure whether that will work properly
[04:16] <modor> I also have a stupid question for the forum
[04:16] <onats> gotiniens, i think cisco clean access checks if you have the proper software installed, before it lets you access the network
[04:16] <Jack_Sparrow> modor: Do you have the same limit with dvd-r that you do with rw
[04:16] <onats> gotiniens, there's #cisco too
[04:16] <modor> yes
[04:16] <Frogzoo> genii: you can remove domain-name-servers from dhclient.conf
[04:16] <nbkr> asmith42a, tried to reconfigure X via dpkg-reconfigure?
[04:16] <onats> anyone know of a gui front-end for aticonfig?
[04:16] <asmith42a> No, but that sounds like the info I was looking for, thank you.
[04:17] <Mastastealth> yjwong: but its not a whole new kernel, its just a little update. from 2.6.20-16.28 to 16-31 or something...oh well. is it better to just wait, or should I just grab the Envy script?
[04:17] <gotiniens> onats, I know what it does, the problem is to connect to an clean access manger secured network
[04:17] <genii> Frogzoo: Thanks i'll try that.
[04:17] <Jack_Sparrow> modor: k3b can do 16x and more... dvd-r
[04:17] <usser_> onats theres ati-control panel
[04:17] <frando_> Anyone here familiar with getting wifi to work on a laptop that has a stupid software switch for the wlan adaptor? I got a packardbell easynote r1100 here, and according to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=255574 wifi should work with the rfswitch module. I got it to compile, and the module seems to be loaded successfully, but it still doesn't work.
[04:17] <usser_> onats comes with the driver
[04:17] <dyrne> asmith42a: gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf youll see a vert and horiz setting your monitor manual should tell you these and then the default depth at the bottom usualy youll have 24 selected just add resolutions there highest to lowest - or just use the dpkg-reconfigure
[04:17] <modor> jack sparrow, i am using dvd-r, dvd+r, 16x media
[04:17] <jstarcher> how can I convert a mpeg video into a flash video for a website?
[04:17] <onats> usser, hmmm seems its not installed along with the driver?
[04:18] <usser_> onats yea well it comes with the driver but u have to install it separately
[04:18] <asmith42a> dyrne: No way to avoid doing it manually? The OS installed without me having to tell it all that.
[04:18] <yjwong> Mastastealth, I think it is better to wait, I've heard of some problems caused by Envy. If you have an ATI card, then I would probably have known the steps for re-compiling the kernel module.
[04:18] <modor> jack sparrow, I will try that, hopefully with a different result
[04:18] <cwho> er tried: sudo dpkg -r --force-remove-reinstreq vmware-player but got this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36437/  ... I dont want to get vmware-player working anymore - just wish to remove it...
[04:18] <usser_> onats and it doesnt provide all the functionality of aticonfig
[04:18] <asmith42a> dyrne: Oh, nevermind.
[04:18] <Jack_Sparrow> modor: JUst to verify you have checked data dvd options and not just dvd image options...
[04:18] <onats> usser, where are the files to install it?
[04:18] <genii> Frogzoo: Whats interesting is ppp options file has replacedefaultroute which stays active. So DNS reverts to stock /etc/resolv.conf while the gateway sticks to ppp interface
[04:18] <cwho> can someone help me remove vmware-player? :)
[04:18] <Mastastealth> yjwong: All right. Thanks. Guess I'll have to live without Compiz for a bit. ;)
[04:19] <modor> jack sparrow, where do I check this?
[04:19] <yjwong> No problem, Mastastealth :)
[04:19] <onats> cwho, try: sudo apt-get remove vmware-player
[04:20] <Jack_Sparrow> modor: try to burn data dvd-r and you can get to the burn dialog where speed says auto and try to change it.. you do not need to burn a disc to check
[04:20] <Frogzoo> cwho: how'd you install? from the repos?
[04:20] <frando_> When trying to activate it with ifup, the device is not found, and /var/log/messages reports [11009.306820]  pbe5: failed at request_region() and [11009.306828]  pbe5: Radio turned ON
[04:20] <cwho> yeah I did apt-get install vmware-player
[04:20] <Frogzoo> cwho: sudo dpkg --purge vmware-player
[04:21] <cwho> it failed to start up the NAT service on vmnet8. So I try removing it, but it fails to stop the virtual ethernet service
[04:21] <usser_> onats it depends on how u install the actual driver, its in the repos
[04:21] <modor> jack sparrow, in tovid and cd/dvd creator, the highest manual selection for the /dev/dvdrw was 6.2x
[04:21] <Frogzoo> cwho: sudo /etc/init.d/vmware stop ?
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> modor: I can understand burnong a movie image being restricted in speed... lots of stuff going on in the background building it...
[04:21] <CompJunki> how do you get your ipconfog up on terminal ?
[04:21] <CompJunki> config
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> modor: I asked specifically for k3b info

[04:23] <CompJunki> :D

[04:25] <xukun> Jack_Sparrow, can burn that in ubuntu?
[04:25] <yjwong> onats, if you have installed via ATI's proprietary drivers, the command is "amdccle"
[04:25] <yjwong> without the quotes, of course
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> xukun: I am looking to see if k3b can do that.
[04:26] <backpro> i have ubuntu with gnome desktop and now i install kde (apt-get install kubuntu-desktop) how i chose between kde and gnome when i restart the pc ???
[04:26] <yjwong> backpro, there is a button named "Sessions" on the login window
[04:26] <yjwong> click on that and it will let you pick
[04:26] <yjwong> along with a few other options like Failsafe GNOME, failsafe terminal etc.
[04:27] <usser_> backpro in your login screen there should be sessions button it should let u choose which session u want to boot into
[04:27] <backpro> i dont find this button in my login screen
[04:27] <misty_wrk> anybody else's clamav stop working today?
[04:27] <yjwong> hmm
[04:27] <xukun> Jack_Sparrow, no I already try that
[04:27] <yjwong> backpro, might be some other names like "Options" or something similar
[04:27] <Jack_Sparrow> xukun: One way for sure is to convert it... http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=224353
[04:27] <yjwong> depends on what GDM theme you are choosing too
[04:27] <backpro> ok thanks
[04:28] <yjwong> no problem, hope that helped you :)

[04:31] <Shay_cyber5482> hi all .. need some help plz, i would like to install the package "libc6" but when i am trying to install i get "error - conflicts with the installed package "tzdata"
[04:32] <gilos> another question, how can I get my system updates to use my socks proxy?  I have network proxy prefrences set, but it seems to ignore that (or not use it)
[04:32] <ScorpKing> erUSUL: thanks. i'll try that. :)
[04:32] <onats> yjwong, are you on ubuntu?
[04:32] <Shay_cyber5482> yes
[04:32] <erUSUL> Shay_cyber5482: libc is already instaled in every linux distribution...
[04:32] <brad_> i want to change the root password
[04:33] <yjwong> onats, yep
[04:33] <onats> yjwong, the AMD site lists that the package they have on the web is only for redhat...
[04:33] <yjwong> uh
[04:33] <yjwong> you have to generate the debs for Ubuntu
[04:33] <onats> generate it?
[04:33] <yjwong> run the installer with sh ./<installer_name> --buildpkg Ubuntu/feisty
[04:33] <yjwong> in a Terminal, of course
[04:33] <onats> oh ok..
[04:34] <Urilockz> brad_: go to system > admin > users  and groups > root > properties
[04:34] <kitche> Shay_cyber5482, if you need the developer headers install libc6-dev
[04:34] <brad_> Urilockz: thanks
[04:34] <Flannel> !sudo | brad_
[04:34] <ubotu> brad_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:35] <onats> yjwong, when i run the package installer, will it automatically replace my current vid driver?
[04:35] <yjwong> onats, it won't
[04:36] <yjwong> the installer generates three debian packages
[04:36] <yjwong> one is the driver, the other is the kernel module, and the other is amdcccle
[04:36] <brad_> Flannel: I use sudo all the time, I needed the root password for the cups web interface
[04:36] <jaw> Paddy_EIRE: the sun java6 download works fine
[04:36] <onats> sudo passwd root
[04:37] <brad_> onats: now see that does not work.
[04:37] <Paddy_EIRE> jaw, good stuff nice one :D
[04:37] <Noodlesgc> can someone please help me connect my Wifi, it says connected but i can access the internet
[04:37] <mike6546> what do I set the default sound card for my OSS drivers?
[04:37] <mike6546> *how
[04:37] <yjwong> "sudo passwd root" sets the password for root
[04:37] <brad_> the passwd program is not working
[04:37] <rockets> To triple boot vista-xp-ubuntu i should install XP first, then vista, then ubuntu, right?
[04:38] <erUSUL> yjwong: please do not recommend or encurage setting the rrot password is not supported here and against the desing of the distribution
[04:38] <kousotu> rockets: xp or vista, and ubuntu last
[04:38] <erUSUL> !root | yjwong
[04:38] <ubotu> yjwong: 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
[04:38] <rockets> kousotu, triple boot.
[04:38] <kousotu> rockets: windows order does not matter
[04:38] <dyrne> rockets: thats what id do but i have not exp with vista
[04:39] <onats> yeah... sorry didnt read the whole thing:)
[04:39] <onats> yjwong, i got an error, architecture not supported:(
[04:39] <rockets> kousotu, nope, if you install XP after vista, vista wont boot
[04:39] <rockets> kousotu, but thanks for talking out of your ass :-D
[04:39] <kousotu> rockets: I have done it tyvm
[04:39] <rockets> so have i.
[04:40] <rockets> vista uses a totally different boot loader
[04:40] <kousotu> well don't be dumb and split the partions for XP and Vista
[04:40] <hendrixski> hey, does anybody know of a plugin to a mail client that allows you to view .odt documents in it, without having to download and open them in OOo?

[04:40] <kousotu> then put Ubintu last and all sould bot without any issues
[04:40] <zren> hi I'm a debian user testing ubuntu, I'm wondering about root= option in grubs menu.list, in debian its just the path to the root filesystem, in ubuntu is it something like root=UUID=verylargenumber, can someone explain what that is

If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[04:40] <onats> yjwong amd x64
[04:40] <erUSUL> hendrixski: there is no such a thing afaik
[04:40] <onats> what's the option for that?
[04:41] <kitche> zren, it's the UUID it never changes for the partitions unless you change the partitions
[04:41] <yjwong> hmm, I'm not sure
[04:41] <zren> kitche, why can't i use the direct path or can i?
[04:41] <kitche> zren, prtty much if udev changes your partition order it won't matter for grub
[04:41] <CompJunki> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9ifQvQCO7Y&mode=related&search=
[04:41] <hendrixski> erUSUL, :-( that's not good.  MS Outlook does that for .doc ... and if we want .odt to compete we need things like that
[04:41] <usser_> zren yes u can
[04:41] <kitche> zren, you can but why would you
[04:41] <CompJunki> microsoft have the same ideas
[04:41] <CompJunki> as ubuntu
[04:41] <CompJunki> lol
[04:42] <hendrixski> erUSUL, I was looking through the thunderbird plugins, was hoping someone here heard of it... guess not
[04:42] <hendrixski> thanks :-)
[04:43] <zren> kitche, I'm having some problems in boot up sequence because he cant mount the root filesystem, i was just wondering what kind of entry that is and if its afflicted with that problem
[04:44] <kitche> zren, no that wouldn't affect your problem most likely
[04:44] <zren> k thanks
[04:44] <kitche> zren, since it's the same as /dev/sdXc
[04:45] <yjwong> erUSUL, I wasn't recommending anyone to set the root password, that was just an explanation of what the command does. Thanks for reminding anyway :)
[04:45] <Arcad3z> how to install gtk on 7.04

[05:08] <renzo17> Aminux: restart X with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace and see if it will let you use the higher depth
[05:08] <mortenwb> stefg: i know you cant guide me, thanx for the help :)

[05:14] <Aminux> renzo17: i have to change the xorg.conf too?

[05:15] <kousotu> Kouryuu? now that's a new one lol
[05:15] <g1gaman> renzo17: those are rpms
[05:15] <neverblue> kousotu*
[05:15] <renzo17> Aminux: makes the changes to it i suggested in your pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36445/ then save it and restart
[05:15] <ikonia> renzo17: as far as I'm aware none of the main burners support lightscribe lableing I've had to use external apps
[05:16] <kousotu> neverblue: I knew you meant me, but that's about the most interesting misspelling I've ever seen
[05:16] <onats> brb, need to restart
[05:16] <neverblue> kousotu, its not a mis-spelling, its tab completion
[05:16] <Aminux> renzo17: just to confirm,these changes will make make use the ati proprietary drivers?
[05:17] <stefg> g1gaman: http://www.linux.com/feature/118705
[05:17] <alajlpaez> ola
[05:17] <renzo17> Aminux: no, you will still be using the open source driver that you are using now........if you want to use the propreitary driver (assuming you already have it installed) change the line Driver "ati" to Driver "fglrx"
[05:17] <Kouryuu> Actually kousotu, it's an OLD one ;)  just not in this country.
[05:17] <MrDeadLock> Hi all. Is there a tutorial in helping to use CLI. I setup ubuntu server edition and i want to learn more. :-)
[05:17] <alajlpaez> ola
[05:18] <ikonia> MrDeadLock http://www.tldp.org
[05:18] <usser_> onats sorry im at work, so what happened?
[05:18] <anandanbu> Mplayer closes by itself when i try to play an .ogg video file

[05:18] <kousotu> neverblue: oh.. take ll the fun outa it..
[05:18] <madp3ngu1n> i have a prob and need a lil help
[05:18] <neverblue> maddler, ask away :)
[05:18] <neverblue> dang, it got me again :)
[05:18] <nabil> I installed the intel driver from the repos and changed the xorg.conf accordingly but when I restarted X I finniched having giant fonts
[05:18] <neverblue> madp3ngu1n,
[05:18] <MrDeadLock> ikonia thanks.
[05:18] <kousotu> !ask | madp3ngu1n
[05:18] <ubotu> madp3ngu1n: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:18] <nabil> help
[05:19] <madp3ngu1n> ok sry
[05:19] <kousotu> !ask | nabil
[05:19] <ubotu> nabil: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:19] <madp3ngu1n> ima slow typer
[05:19] <ikonia> kousotu is there any chance you can stop making pointless comment
[05:19] <mike6546> if unpack a .deb file on my desktop it should still be placed in the proper place correct?
[05:19] <neverblue> ikonia, I heard /ignore is very useful :)
[05:19] <SlimeyPete> yes. All of the files will be installed into the correct locations, mike6546
[05:19] <nabil> how to install inte gma?
[05:19] <Aminux> renzo17: ok,i just read that the proprietary drivers are slower than the ones that come with ubuntu.
[05:19] <g1gaman> renzo17: do you know how to run label creator? there is no item in alacarte, and command lightscribe is not recognized
[05:19] <taime1> how do you change the resolution of the gnome splash screen?
[05:19] <madp3ngu1n> i cant get my windows os running because a spt.sys file and cant boot in safe mode to remove it any help
[05:20] <g1gaman> stefg: thank you. i'll read that carefully
[05:20] <stefg> !splash | taime1
[05:20] <ubotu> taime1: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[05:20] <renzo17> Aminux: not heard that before but you could try both and see which works better for your system
[05:20] <ikonia> madp3ngu1n this is ubuntu support - not windows support
[05:20] <usser_> onats do sudo dpkg --remove xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx-kernel-source fglrx-control
[05:20] <MrDeadLock> I want to setup a server. File/Media possibly even a website. Would ubuntu server work well? Would it be better to start off with say XCFE or just stick with CLI.
[05:20] <usser_> onats and then install the packages that u got generated
[05:20] <mike6546> SlimeyPete: so can I use a .deb of a newer version of a wine to overwrite an older version that I got with synaptic without problems?
[05:20] <ikonia> MrDeadLock you can do that on the normal eddition as well as server
[05:20] <madp3ngu1n> i know but im using ubuntu now as a duel boot..why can i load ubuntu and not windows
[05:20] <MTecknology> http://pastebin.ca/682425
[05:21] <MTecknology> Is there anybody in here that knows cobol enough to just get me started? I'm just taking a sample program offline and trying to figure out how to compile it. http://pastebin.ca/682425
[05:21] <g1gaman> i've installed debs from here: http://www.lightscribe.com/downloadsection/pse/
[05:21] <MTecknology> sorry, i forgot the text for it
[05:21] <neverblue> MrDeadLock, I find having the GUI helpful at times, if you have the space for it
[05:21] <stefg> g1gaman: there's even a howto for ubuntu, but it's german http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/LightScribe . maybe bablefish or whatever can translate it
[05:21] <kousotu> madp3ngu1n: pm me, I'll see what I can do to help
[05:21] <g1gaman> but can't run the software
[05:21] <SlimeyPete> mike6546: you can, but it's best to uninstall from synaptic first, otherwise a future systme update might conflict with the version you're about to install
[05:21] <MrDeadLock> Doesnt server edition. Use less resources.
[05:21] <CompJunki> Help

[05:21] <dyrne> MTecknology: what compiler are you using under linux? im curious i havent had much luck with em
[05:22] <CompJunki> and everything isn't working correctly
[05:22] <neverblue> CompJunki, please keep your question to one line, thanks :)
[05:22] <ikonia> MrDeadLock not that much difference, depends if you want this to be "production" class
[05:22] <MTecknology> dyrne, OpenCOBOL

[05:22] <BBHoss> how do you add a modules to be modprobed at boot in ubuntu
[05:22] <g1gaman> renzo17: i didnt found one
[05:22] <CompJunki> sorry neverblue
[05:22] <BBHoss> i cant find /etc/rc.modules
[05:22] <stefg> !doesn't work | CompJunki
[05:22] <ubotu> CompJunki: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[05:22] <ikonia> BBHoss: modprobe runs of the cli
[05:22] <CompJunki> neverblue:  why do you like telling people what to do ?
[05:22] <MrDeadLock> I'd like to have it use as little resources as possible.
[05:22] <voidless> gud eve everyone

[05:23] <ikonia> MrDeadLock why ? what sort of spec machine do you have, what class of sservice are you offering ?
[05:23] <renzo17> g1gaman: lol no probs
[05:23] <CompJunki> neverblue:  how do i restore?
[05:23] <BBHoss> ikonia: is it usually empty?
[05:23] <neverblue> CompJunki, I cannot be of further assistance
[05:23] <CompJunki> fuck you

[05:24] <MrDeadLock> It's going to be for a home server. Media/Content along with torrent downloading.
[05:24] <neverblue> CompJunki, that type of language is un-necesary

[05:24] <CompJunki> wtf
[05:24] <renzo17> g1gaman: onced its installed go to /opt/lightscribeApplications/ directory and look for something that looks like it might launch the prog
[05:24] <taime1> is there a way to change the resolution of my splash screen?
[05:24] <ikonia> MrDeadLock just use the normal eddition, you'll not see much benifit from running the server edition
[05:24] <CompJunki> PriceChild:  thanks
[05:24] <ikonia> CompJunki wtf is also not really a nice phrase ?
[05:25] <CompJunki> erm

[05:25] <PriceChild> CompJunki, please ignore...
[05:25] <CompJunki> k
[05:25] <MrDeadLock> ikonia: Is there a way i could use Normal Ed. For setup. Then actually run it in a non gui mode.

[05:25] <CompJunki> PriceChild:  can you help me
[05:25] <ultr1> hey anybody willing to help a bit on getting the cube to work in compizfusion? i have the other effects working just not the cube
[05:26] <xplode_me> are daily gutsy builds live cds ?
[05:26] <stefg> taime1: that can't be scaled dynamically. all you can do is manually scale an existing splash up with gimp. and replace the smaller one. but that's real work
[05:26] <PriceChild> !gutsy | xplode_me

[05:26] <xplode_me> like the final?
[05:26] <neverblue> MrDeadLock, you could have the OS not load the gdm, but if your going to do that, then just dont install it
[05:26] <entz81> hallo, is any body can tell my how i can get the curses library? please
[05:26] <neverblue> MrDeadLock, you can always setup the gdm/kdm later, if you miss the GUI
[05:26] <stefg> !find ncurses
[05:26] <ubotu> Found: evms-ncurses, lib64ncurses5, lib64ncurses5-dev, libncurses5, libncurses5-dbg (and 13 others)
[05:26] <claudiu> can someone give me the default sources.list for gutsy , pls  ?
[05:26] <CompJunki> i cannot be of further assistance my ass.
[05:27] <taime1> stefg: i wonder why my splash screen is now hanging most of the way off the screen after i installed nvidia driver..
[05:27] <CompJunki> no one helps here
[05:27] <CompJunki> lokk
[05:27] <neverblue> CompJunki, please keep your question to one line, and be clear what your asking
[05:27] <CompJunki> i asked a question
[05:27] <CompJunki> and you go off and ignore me
[05:27] <MrDeadLock> I have server edition installed now, and am installing XCFE atm. I just wanted other people's opinions on what would be the best solution.

[05:28] <CompJunki> some channel suppott
[05:28] <CompJunki> like windows support to me
[05:28] <fozze> anyone use dpkg-divert?
[05:28] <stefg> taime the proprietary nvidia driver uses a different timting formula, so you have to readjust the screen. and probably your gdm reso doesn't match your user-reso
[05:28] <CompJunki> claudiu:  i am
[05:28] <claudiu> could you give me the default sources.list for gutsy , pls  ?

[05:30] <BBHoss> i would boot into recovery mode and use apt-get to remove those packages
[05:30] <stefg> nexact: mouse-movements are pretty popular. read /dev/input/mouse

[05:30] <Metal03> Hi there, how do I start the recovery console?
[05:31] <CompJunki> thanks claudiu
[05:31] <CompJunki> compiz messed up
[05:31] <CompJunki> when system crashed
[05:31] <BBHoss> you have to backtrack and undo what you did
[05:31] <neverblue> Metal03, within Gnome, ctrl-atl-f key
[05:31] <claudiu> CompJunki: uhum
[05:31] <CompJunki> omg
[05:31] <CompJunki> why can linux fix an os
[05:31] <CompJunki> after a crash
[05:31] <CompJunki> ?
[05:31] <claudiu> CompJunki: it said omg ?
[05:31] <Cyrus25801> i used to access my ubuntu folders from my windows pc but it i cant anymore windows just tells me the folder isn't accessable or i don't have premission.pls help
[05:31] <BBHoss> just follow the guide backwards
[05:31] <amias> i'm trying to upgrade from feisty to gutsy by using  ' gksudo "update-manager -d" ' but its says i need 576mb more diskspace on a partition that has 2.8G free
[05:31] <CompJunki> thats what you need to work on guys
[05:32] <CompJunki> to get the system to restore
[05:32] <CompJunki> after a crash
[05:32] <Metal03> neverblue : And when should I type this?
[05:32] <MrDeadLock> How do i shutdown Ubuntu serv. from commandline?
[05:32] <CompJunki> or something
[05:32] <neverblue> Cyrus25801, have you setup Samba ?
[05:32] <BBHoss> compiz is alpha at best
[05:32] <CompJunki> so you dont have to keep manually installing

[05:32] <CompJunki> after a damn crash
[05:32] <claudiu> CompJunki: pls b more detailed
[05:32] <BBHoss> is warns you it might screw your system
[05:32] <amias> MrDeadLock,  'sudo shutdown now -h'
[05:32] <Cyrus25801> neverblue: yes i have and it was woking fine till now
[05:32] <BBHoss> this is linux not windows
[05:32] <taime1> what controls the resolution of the gnome splash screen?
[05:32] <SlimeyPete> CompJunki: there are very few (if any) of the core Ubuntu devs in here - if you want to request a System Restore feature, it's best to log on to the Ubuntu launchpad and file a request :)
[05:32] <ni1s> When using a dark GTK theme shaded text  looks bad, does anyone know how to change the shade color?
[05:32] <SlimeyPete> that way the devs will see it
[05:32] <BBHoss> system restore dosent work worth crap anyways
[05:32] <usser_> arrrgg
[05:33] <neverblue> Cyrus25801, maybe you setup firewall settings, you had to have changed something in the past 24 hours, as it was working before
[05:33] <AngryElf> Is trying to run beryl with two monitors just a bad idea?
[05:33] <Usrl> all system restore was ever good for for me was getting really concerned when I had to turn it off to fix a problem
[05:33] <neverblue> AngryElf, with ATI yes :)
[05:33] <Cyrus25801> amias: maybe it is trying to download to another drive like a usb drivwe
[05:33] <AngryElf> neverblue: damn, it's "running" but i see no effects
[05:33] <CompJunki> SlimeyPete:  SO YOU TELLLING ME YOU GUYS HAVENT THOUGHT ABOUTI T?
[05:33] <AngryElf> neverblue: and I can't move stuff to the second screen
[05:33] <JuJuBee> I am getting an error message with adept.  "There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there wasa problem downloading some packages the commit would break".   How do I fix this?
[05:33] <BBHoss> thank god
[05:33] <SlimeyPete> CompJunki: "you guys"? Who do you think we are? We don't work for Ubuntu - we're just users like yourself.
[05:33] <Cyrus25801> neverblue: i was working on SynCE for my pda nothing else
[05:33] <neverblue> AngryElf, please direct any more questions to #ubuntu-effects thanks ")
[05:34] <BBHoss> he must be 8
[05:34] <amias> Cyrus25801, no it first refered to /usr and then on the second run to /boot , both with different size requirement
[05:34] <AngryElf> tks
[05:34] <stefg> JuJuBee: #kubuntu
[05:34] <JuJuBee> K
[05:34] <neverblue> Cyrus25801, maybe check your samba settings, confirm its running, etc..
[05:34] <onats> usser, its ok now.. using the drivers that i downloaded.. thanks!
[05:34] <onats> :)
[05:34] <onats> but beryl still not working!
[05:34] <BBHoss> anyone know where the modules that load at boot config file is?
[05:34] <Hobbsee> SlimeyPete: we hide well..
[05:34] <Cyrus25801> neverblue: how do i do that
[05:34] <neverblue> Cyrus25801, you set Samba up, did you not?
[05:34] <CompJunki> how the hell did you make me leave?
[05:34] <SlimeyPete> Hobbsee: :)
[05:34] <CompJunki> with out kicking me
[05:35] <CompJunki> >?
[05:35] <Toma-> hax
[05:35] <Cyrus25801> amias: well that was just a thought. can't think of anything else
[05:35] <CompJunki> omg
[05:35] <MrDeadLock> how much lighter on resources is xubuntu compared to ubuntu/kubuntu??
[05:35] <amol> hi all ..i am trying ti install grub on usb in which i copied boot/grub/* folder but then also i am getting error as ~boot/grub/stage1 is not readable..how to install grub on usb
[05:35] <PriceChild> CompJunki, magic. Now please stay on topic. This channel is for support only.
[05:35] <CompJunki> i know toma
[05:35] <Cyrus25801> neverblue: yes i did
[05:35] <BBHoss> hax me ip=127.0.0.1
[05:35] <stefg> BBHoss: /etc/modules
[05:35] <neverblue> Cyrus25801, then you already know 'how do I do that' :)
[05:35] <Hobbsee> CompJunki: now, behave.  it's called a remove.
[05:35] <genii> Is there some gnokii equivelent for motorola or just use gnokii for them too?
[05:35] <Toma-> :)
[05:35] <CompJunki> so i guess you guys have remote access to my pc?
[05:35] <Cyrus25801> neverblue: well i set it up from synaptic package manager
[05:36] <neverblue> Cyrus25801, thats called installing, it will require a setup after installation
[05:36] <CompJunki> PriceChild:  thats not right
[05:36] <stefg> amol: which device is your usb-stick?
[05:36] <CompJunki> putting viruses on ubuntu
[05:36] <CompJunki> i could report this
[05:36] <Hobbsee> CompJunki: no.  put down the crack pipe.
[05:36] <CompJunki> and paste and screen shot this
[05:36] <Cyrus25801> neverblue: could you please help me go through that again
[05:36] <amias> CompJunki: no , there are people who run the IRC server who will remove you if you persistantly abuse the channel
[05:36] <PriceChild> CompJunki, no we don't, we just have access to this channel.
[05:36] <Toma-> lol
[05:36] <Aminux> renzo17: ok,i tried to boot with the changes in xorg.conf,but it didnt work
[05:36] <BBHoss> kick+ban
[05:36] <amol> stefg:/dev/sdc1
[05:36] <Aminux> renzo17: i could get into X
[05:37] <Davy_Jones> CompJunki: are you threatening us guys?
[05:37] <Aminux> *couldnt
[05:37] <PriceChild> !offtopic | Davy_Jones
[05:37] <ubotu> Davy_Jones: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:37] <neverblue> Cyrus25801, no, sorry, there is lots of documentation on it online
[05:37] <neverblue> !samba | Cyrus25801
[05:37] <ubotu> Cyrus25801: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:37] <stefg> amol: so copy the /grub -foldr out of /boot to the USB-stick again (probably as root)
[05:37] <neverblue> there is a starting point for you
[05:37] <Malder> I have a 'kernel panic' error when I boot up. Is there any way I can just overwrite the kernel to fix it?
[05:37] <dudanogueira> does anyone knows where to change the default ubuntu boot and put the texts of whats going on?
[05:38] <Hobbsee> Davy_Jones: i think he just has no idea what's going on.
[05:38] <Davy_Jones> Malder: tap his shoulders
[05:38] <Cyrus25801> neverblue: the only setup i did was set a password. there wasn't anything else i had to do. but thanx anyway
[05:38] <Toma-> Hobbsee: i did suggest 'hax'. i am sorry :)
[05:38] <amol> stefg:yes i copied as a root grub folder once again
[05:38] <Hobbsee> Toma-: :)
[05:38] <Dr_willis> dudanogueira,  edit the grub  config and use the 'nosplash' and perhaps 'nofb' options, then rerun update-grub
[05:38] <amol> stefg:then
[05:38] <taime1> how can i get my gnomesplash to go back to normal resolution after installing nvidia driver?
[05:38] <stefg> amol: then open a terminal, and enter sudo grub . you'll get a grub prompt
[05:39] <genii> dudanogueira: To see it one time, hit ESC during grub, edit the default kernel line to remove from the end splash and quiet.
[05:39] <Aminux> renzo17: ?
[05:39] <wishie> i am building a PC for a lady at work, and I am deciding between putting windows or ubuntu on it. I would prefer ubuntu, but have to know its going to be able to do what she needs. Internet stuff is fine, and i know Ubuntu is capable of that.. What i am concerned about though, is her Printer. Its an Epson Photo Stylus R230, and she wants to be able to print photos from her camera on it. A4 and also 6'x4' photo paper. Where can i find out about the state 
[05:39] <dudanogueira> Dr_willis, i want the similiar boot from dapper drake, so i can figure out where the boot is stucking
[05:39] <Dr_willis> dudanogueira,  /boot/grub/menu.lst  and change the 'splash' entry to 'nosplash' then run update-grub to make it the default.
[05:39] <stefg> amol: type 'find /grub/stage1' at the grub prompt
[05:39] <Toma-> wishie: i dobelieve the R230 is supported
[05:39] <neverblue> Cyrus25801, no problem
[05:39] <Malder> Davy_Jones: ?
[05:40] <dudanogueira> Dr_willis, genii thanks!
[05:40] <amias> stefg, 'sudo update-grub' should force a rebuild of the initramfs which contains the bootsplash stuff
[05:40] <wishie> Toma-: i myself have an R210 (which i havent used in over a year) but its support was limited, unless i used the "TurboPrint" (commercial) drivers
[05:40] <Dr_willis> dudanogueira,  # defoptions=quiet nosplash nofb           is my Exact line.
[05:40] <neverblue> wishie, might want to check the forums for support for the device
[05:40] <Dr_willis> dudanogueira,  and yes keep the # there. :)
[05:40] <Toma-> wishie: i usually go off this list http://openprinting.org/printer_list.cgi
[05:41] <amias> has anyone completed an upgrade from feisty to gutsy using update-manager ?
[05:41] <wishie> i basically need to know if photo quality prints are available on that printer in ubuntu. Id MUCH rather give her this new pc with linux on it, as opposed to windows. especially since its got such simple tasks (no gaming etc)
[05:41] <stefg> wishie: epson is the best supported brand (along HP) ... don't worry
[05:41] <amol> stefg:file not found eroor came
[05:41] <Malder> amias: is there a way to run update-grub from a live CD? My server isn't booting because of an apparent initramfs error
[05:41] <neverblue> !anyone | amias
[05:41] <ubotu> amias: 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?
[05:41] <Malder> amias
[05:41] <wishie> stefg: do you know if (for me this is) the direct cd printing works now ?
[05:41] <Malder> amias: I updated to feisty... from dapper though
[05:41] <praet> wishie: yes full res printing will be fine.
[05:41] <stefg> amol: so there is a /grub folder on the stick, noot /boot/grub , right?
[05:42] <Davy_Jones> wishie: did you see if her printer is listed there?
[05:42] <Toma-> wishie: ooooooh bummer. its a paperweight. http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-Stylus_Photo_R230
[05:42] <stefg> !printer | wishie
[05:42] <ubotu> wishie: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[05:42] <dudanogueira> Dr_willis, # defoptions=quiet nosplash nofb locale=pt_BR                MY exact one now :)
[05:42] <wishie> Davy_Jones: im checking the site now
[05:42] <nexact> hello all, what's the fastest way to generate entropy im generating my GPG key and it's stuck at 282 bytes remaining ?
[05:42] <amias> Malder, fun wasn't it :) replacing init is no small matter
[05:42] <amol> stefg:s
[05:42] <Hobbsee> nexact: move your mouse lots
[05:42] <kutigaisx> skonta
[05:42] <Hobbsee> nexact: type random things into a text editor
[05:42] <nexact> Hobbsee, I'm under ubuntu-server
[05:43] <nexact> Hobbsee, so I gotta do it via console..

[05:43] <wishie> hmm
[05:43] <wishie> _not_ very promising
[05:43] <Frosty|IDle> Frogzoo: i have another ubuntu 7.04 box i built not so long ago with no special config, its similar in hardware to the one you gave me help with, what would happen swapping HDD's over?
[05:43] <amias> Malder: can you boot using recovery mode ?
[05:43] <Toma-> nexact: clt-alt-left
[05:43] <Malder> amias: went off pretty much without a hitch... doesn't happen often for me
[05:43] <Malder> amias: no... same error
[05:43] <Hobbsee> nexact: vi is a text editor.
[05:43] <kousotu> hey Hobbsee
[05:43] <Frogzoo> Frosty|IDle: should boot no problems

[05:44] <kousotu> how be ye?
[05:44] <Hobbsee> tired.
[05:44] <kousotu> aren't oyou always though?
[05:44] <kousotu> lol
[05:44] <amias> Frosty|IDle, as long as your /etc/fstab uses UUID style names for the disks it should keep track of which is which
[05:44] <nexact> Hobbsee, if only writing in vi is generating entropy, ill just do cat /dev/urandom > data
[05:44] <kousotu> and it's what, 2am?
[05:44] <apo> Hm
[05:44] <Frosty|IDle> Frogzoo: cool, going to test the old box with the connection and if that's ok just swap the disks over >:)
[05:45] <apo> Which package is providing thinkpad-keys?
[05:45] <Malder> amias: I get "Failed to execute /init" then kernel panic
[05:45] <stefg> amol: hmm... then either your bios can't see the stick, or the stick isn't bootable. (there seem to be brands that are simply not usable to boot from)
[05:45] <kauer> is there any way to force the udev automounting magic to happen?

[05:45] <shriphani> kauer: it is supposed to happen automagically.
[05:45] <Aminux> anyone know to make ubuntu use 32bit color depth?
[05:45] <wishie> its almost 2am where i am :P
[05:45] <kousotu> Hobbsee: is beryl compatable with Gutsy? cause Idon't like fusion

[05:46] <Hobbsee> kousotu: beryl isnt even *in* gutsy
[05:46] <dshot> Question about Feisty:  I removed brltty and I'm still consistently getting permission denied and 'Line in use' on /dev/ttyUSB0 for my serial adapter that worked out of the box in Edgy.   Any ideas here, I've rebooted and fussed around with this a fair amount already.
[05:46] <amol> stefg:but i checked with cfdisk it is showing boot flag as enable
[05:46] <kousotu> I noticed
[05:46] <dshot> and yes, I tried as root
[05:46] <wishie> Toma-: when finding what package a file belongs to, dpkg -S <file> works aswell
[05:46] <wishie> Toma-: saves having to install apt-file i guess
[05:47] <stefg> amol: but that's an issue of the bios and/or the flash-controller on the stick. cfdisk uses the kernel, a completly different story
[05:47] <NoVARaif_> good day all...  I just installed (for the second time in as many days :)) Server 7.04 on my Dell Poweredge SC420.  Given that I'm rusty with linux, I managed to screw it up badly enough yesterday that it wouldn't boot :) ... So, I reinstalled this morning, and I apt-get'ed the gnome-desktop-environment and x-window-system packages.  Something doesn't look right.  For example, yesterday, I could, through X, see GPartEdit (I think 
[05:47] <kauer> shriphani: yes. thank you. Let me rephrase the question: Is there any way to force the udev automounting magic to happen?
[05:47] <Toma-> wishie: apt-file searches thru non-installed packages
[05:47] <wishie> Toma-: ahh ok
[05:48] <Toma-> wishie: infinitely useful when compiling aswell
[05:48] <amol> stefg:so how i can make it as bootable?
[05:48] <shad0w1e> is there any way to configure a hardware raid on linux?
[05:48] <Toma-> apo: you could remove it from your rc levels
[05:48] <wishie> Toma-: didnt even know about apt-file. been a long time since i used a debian based system. only starting to use ubuntu on a few machines now.
[05:48] <Malder> shad0w1e: hardware raid doesn't get configured through the OS - it's in hardware
[05:48] <[HCI] MIkeB> ok im having a problem connecting to efnet...keeps telling me no ident response
[05:48] <shad0w1e> I don't have a screen hooked up to my server, so doing it in BIOS will be a pain
[05:48] <[HCI] MIkeB> i forget how to fix that
[05:49] <kekko> any suggestion for a visual db design system for ubuntu?
[05:49] <wishie> [HCI] MIkeB: install pidentd ? midentd or similar i believe
[05:49] <stefg> amol: i'm not sure it's possible at all. investigate if your bios can do it, or if you can update it, and check if this type of stick is bootable at all
[05:49] <shad0w1e> Malder, i know it's usually done that way.... so there's no Linux app that can talk to your hardware?
[05:49] <sipior> kauer: you can restart the udevd daemon by running "sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart"
[05:49] <Frogzoo> shad0w1e: all you need is a driver for the raid card
[05:49] <shad0w1e> Frogzoo, then what
[05:49] <apo> Toma-: K in front of a file in /etc/rc*/ means that it's not supposed to start, right?
[05:50] <apo> Or was it vice-versa?
[05:50] <Tomcat_> apo: K means the script is executed when leaving the level
[05:50] <Toma-> ^^^
[05:50] <apeitheo> For some reason I can't connect to other people on my local LAN who have iTunes (through rhythmbox's DAAP support), but I can connect to others who have rhythmbox--what could be the problem?
[05:51] <amias> shad0w1e, its very unlikely  , hardware raid is deeply proprietary ( an IMHO no better than software raid) and so cannot be configured through linux , what are you using
[05:51] <Toma-> apo: should only be in /etc/rc2.d just remove it
[05:51] <Toma-> or chmod -x it
[05:51] <apo> Toma-: Alright, thanks
[05:51] <Toma-> np
[05:51] <shad0w1e> amias, well thanks.... im using a supermicro server with no screen hooked up and i kind of wanted to avoid carrying a screen into the server room
[05:51] <sipior> apeitheo: i think the latest iTunes daap is not compatible with rhythmbox
[05:51] <amias> apeitheo, do you have avahi installed
[05:51] <NoVARaif_> n/m ... google to the rescue
[05:51] <richard_> hey guys i need a little help on an smb fileserver i set up. it is password protected and after a certain amount of time it kicks the users off...
[05:51] <MrDeadLock> If i install ubuntu, get my server programs all installed and start at boot up. Is there a way to make ubuntu only load into CLI until I want to login to an X to say install/modify something.
[05:52] <amol> stefg:is there any other way to make usb as bootable? bcoz i don't know how to upgrade bios...
[05:52] <sipior> i had heard that iTunes had been "improved" by removing compatibility
[05:52] <amias> shad0w1e, ok so that should allow you to control the bios via serial console ( i.e null modem to another linux machine )
[05:52] <shad0w1e> amias, that's more confusing than just hooking up a screen, but thanks
[05:53] <shad0w1e> btw, where do I pick up a serial console? i hear everyone uses it to hack routers and stuff
[05:53] <amias> shad0w1e, thats how the big boys do it
[05:53] <apo> MrDeadLock: You'll have to remove gdm from your rc levels
[05:53] <apo> I guess
[05:53] <amias> shad0w1e, run minicom
[05:53] <stefg> amol: you have to find out  first if the bios is the problem, or if the stick is the problem. some sticks simply won't boot, while another brand does it. But if your bios isn't even capable of booting from usb, you just can't do it....
[05:53] <shad0w1e> amias , thanx
[05:53] <dshot> shad0w1e: Any decent electronics store.. Fry's or something similar
[05:54] <shad0w1e> what do they cost?
[05:54] <dshot> like $15
[05:54] <shad0w1e> ahh no way!
[05:54] <richard_> hey guys i need a little help on an smb fileserver i set up. it is password protected and after a certain amount of time it kicks the users off...
[05:54] <MrDeadLock> There's no easy switch way. If i setup say VNC on ubutu server edition, would i be able to VNC into it with a desktop interface or no?
[05:54] <amias> shad0w1e, real men make their own ;-)
[05:54] <dshot> but I don't recommend feisty, as some strange issue beyond brltty is causing me to not be able to use my usb->serial adapter ;((
[05:55] <CoasterMaster> has anyone had any good luck with those USB -> Serial port adapters?
[05:55] <amias> richard_, sounds like one of the other clients is forcing an election , try running wireshark to see whats actually happening on the network
[05:55] <dshot> Yeah, they work great
[05:55] <Soup_> anyone know a good Winrar Gnome app?
[05:55] <shapur> anyone can help me with Firehol?
[05:55] <amol> stefg:by using same bios i created once other usb as bootable but this is Transcend mp3 player(1GB)
[05:56] <stefg> amol: so this might be the prob... use another stick
[05:56] <richard_> amias it is a simple network of just a couple clients all accessing the same file....
[05:56] <dshot> plug it in ( unless you're me and using feisty ;(( ) and  cu --speed=9600 --line=/dev/ttyUSB0 and you're ready to roll ( or whatever your terminal settings should be for the device you're connecting to )
[05:56] <amias> richard_, cool that will mean you will be able to keep up with the packets in wireshark
[05:57] <Malder> Is there any way to update the kernel from a live CD?
[05:57] <richard_> amias, is wireshark easy to use?
[05:57] <dshot> wireshark is very simple
[05:57] <amias> richard_, well i find it easy but you might not , i don't know you
[05:57] <dshot> so is tshark if you need console-based tools
[05:57] <richard_> well even if i see another computer kicking the other off it would still be a configuration issue...
[05:58] <amias> richard_, you could try upping the OS level in your servers /etc/samba/smb.conf , this would give it a greater chance of winnign the election
[05:58] <amol> stefg:thanks..1 more question i want to install ubuntu in my lab but all are connected in local lan ..but not connected to internet as well not having cdrom drive...then how to install
[05:59] <richard_> ok i'll try that
[05:59] <amias> amol: mount the cdrom on another machine and share its contents via http
[05:59] <dew> Greetings everyone
[05:59] <dshot> well crud, I was hoping someone would have a quick non-obvious answer to my usb->serial issue in Feisty... everything I seem to Google yammers about uninstalling brltty, which still doesn't seem to solve my issue.   Nothing special going on when I strace opening up the device, just something stupid going on somehow.

[06:01] <sipior> is sshd running on the target box?
[06:01] <amias> amol:i did your googling for you this time - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=797
[06:01] <dew> Does anyone know if there's a way to keep Screenlets from minimizing when I press CTRL-ALT-D or the "Show Desktop" button?
[06:01] <sunnypies> PriceChild: good thing you know all the nitty gritty rules of irc =)
[06:02] <PriceChild> sunnypies, it'll help you :)
[06:02] <sipior> sunnypies: is sshd running on the target box?
[06:02] <sunnypies> sipior: whats the command to check that?
[06:02] <sipior> sunnypies: on the target machine, try "netstat -antu | grep 22"
[06:03] <tom__> tommakefile
[06:03] <sunnypies> sipior: ok one minute
[06:03] <amias> PriceChild, all that user need do is restart their internet connection and someone else will be banned instead
[06:04] <PriceChild> amias, we are aware of that thanks.
[06:05] <darlek> hello ppls
[06:05] <RainCT> hi
[06:05] <usser_> darlek hi
[06:05] <RainCT> what's the place for licensing questions about Ubuntu?
[06:05] <dshot> Well, I solved my issue with the USB->Serial
[06:05] <slabby> How do I add a user named webftp to the group www-data?
[06:05] <dew> Anyone have any ideas about my problem?
[06:05] <dshot> FYI, 'cu' for whatever reason doesn't work
[06:05] <dshot> utilized minicom and setup a minirc.USB  and 'minicom USB' works great
[06:06] <dshot> so strange that cu is bugging out
[06:06] <sunnypies> sipior: when we tried to start sshd it returned "failed"
[06:06] <darlek> slabby: what happens when you use adduser?
[06:06] <dshot> anyhow, take care
[06:06] <sipior> sunnypies: and if you try starting the daemon manually? /usr/bin/sshd or whatever
[06:06] <slabby> darlek, what is the syntax?
[06:07] <dyrne> slabby: gksu gedit /etc/group is one way but be careful i take no responsibility :)
[06:07] <sipior> sunnypies: /usr/sbin/sshd
[06:07] <sunnypies> sipior: would i type "/usr/sbin/sshd start"?
[06:07] <sipior> sunnypies: no, just /usr/sbin/sshd
[06:08] <sipior> sunnypies: sudo /usr/sbin/sshd, actually
[06:08] <darlek> type adduser -D and it will show default settings
[06:08] <shad0w1e> OH SWEET! I NEED A SERIAL CONSOLE!! where can I get it for 15$ ?
[06:08] <amias> slabby, sudo usermod -a G  www-data webftp
[06:08] <slabby> darlek, thanks got it
[06:08] <sunnypies> sipior: the computer is in different room, i will try that
[06:09] <darlek> slabby:  try also http://www.linuxheadquarters.com/howto/basic/adduser.shtml
[06:09] <darlek> np
[06:09] <amias> shad0w1e, use a nearby linux box and ssh into it and run minicom
[06:09] <newTruth> np
[06:10] <slabby> darlek, I just need to set the folder to 775 now
[06:10] <shad0w1e> amias, what's minicom do for me?
[06:10] <slabby> darlek, is that    sudo chown /var/www 775
[06:10] <Shaka> hi
[06:10] <amias> shad0w1e, saves you $15 , its a software terminal emulator
[06:11] <shad0w1e> amias, I run minicom on the server or client?
[06:11] <amias> shad0w1e, for serial ports
[06:11] <shapur> Someone can help me configuring firehol?
[06:11] <darlek> slabby: sudo chmod 755 /var/www as I think chown sets owner by name not number (guess)
[06:11] <darlek> anyone correct me please ;)
[06:11] <slabby> darlek, thanks
[06:11] <amias> shad0w1e, on the client (i,e the nearby machine not the one with the raid)
[06:12] <shad0w1e> amias, can I run it on a machine that's a VM on the one with the raid?
[06:12] <sunnypies> sipior: when we did /usr/sbin/sshd it said "execution requires an absolute path"
[06:12] <darlek> speaking of www users, if I have a user who can edit their files but not upload new ones, any permissions I should check out?
[06:13] <mrhex> hello, i am having some Windows XP <-> ubuntu 7.04 samba connectivity issues, i am trying to log on from ubuntu onto my xp machine to get some files on a share, but the passwords is not accepted. i even created a user test/test on the xp machine but it will not let me log in. i have tried looking at many guides but they havent helped me out much.
[06:13] <usser_> hey guys does anyone know of a command that displays current xorg screen settings like refresh rate and resolution
[06:13] <sipior> sunnypies: yuo could type the exact command line you used?
[06:13] <shad0w1e> mrhex, you need to run smbuser -a <username>
[06:13] <amias> shad0w1e, er no , because your server machine will be in the BIOS (i.e not running linux yet) when you are doing this
[06:13] <cox377> can anyone recommend a decent VNC client?
[06:13] <cox377> !vnc
[06:13] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[06:13] <sipior> sunnypies: could you, rather
[06:13] <sunnypies> sipior: type what?
[06:14] <shad0w1e> amias, ah. and how do I connect these boxes? with a standard serial->serial cable?
[06:14] <usser_> cox377 ultravnc is pretty good
[06:14] <usser_> cox377 thats for window
[06:14] <usser_> cox377 thats for windows
[06:15] <mrhex> shad0w1e, i cannot find that command.
[06:15] <amias> shad0w1e, skip to stage 3 on this - http://www.vanemery.com/Linux/Serial/serial-console.html
[06:15] <DuClare> cox377, try tightvnc
[06:15] <shad0w1e> mrhex, then make sure that smb/samba and smbfs packages are installed
[06:15] <darlek> what's a standard permissions level for www-data uses?  I'm using 755 on directories and 644 for files
[06:15] <markelhas> hi everyone!
[06:15] <sunnypies> sipior: so what command should i type my friend?
[06:15] <amias> markelhas, hello doctor nick !
[06:15] <cox377> usser_: i'm looking for a ubuntu to ubuntu client
[06:15] <shad0w1e> mrhex, wait
[06:15] <markelhas> need some help with my ubuntu
[06:16] <markelhas> i've a asus m3n with 1 gb of mem, when i try to boot ubutun the system is very very very slow, slower than the livecd. I've made the memtest and no errors found. I've tested a different 512 mem and same problem. Later i've put a 256 mem and it works just fine. What can i do to use 1g mem in my ubuntu?
[06:16] <shad0w1e> mrhex sorry im confused. that's for setting up ubuntu as a server. my bad
[06:16] <mrhex> shad0w1e, roger roger w8ing
[06:16] <cox377> the standard ubuntu terminal server client seems very slow
[06:16] <markelhas> any ideas!?
[06:17] <shad0w1e> amias, so cool, thank you!!
[06:17] <amias> cox377, try XDMCP - see blog.amias.org.uk/title/What_on_earth_is_xdmcp
[06:17] <bluefox83> markelhas, you might have a bad HD
[06:17] <treedy> hi guys
[06:17] <treedy> should i use "nano" to do something on console ?
[06:17] <markelhas> bluefox83, why!?
[06:17] <sipior> sunnypies: the exact command you used to start the ssh daemon
[06:17] <markelhas> HD!!!!
[06:17] <darlek> anyone use webmin?  I have a usermin user who can't upload new files but just edit existing ones.  Any permissions to check or settings?
[06:17] <bluefox83> markelhas, because it sounds like your read/write times are really slow...
[06:18] <usser_> bluefox83 yea but why 1gb is slow
[06:18] <Core2QUAD> hello all, i have a quick Q, i use feisty on my Main PC where as i have my core 2 quad and i use gnome and i love gnome, i have an older machine however that i used windows xp on that i would like to change to a ubuntu machine but it is a pentium 4 with 128mb ram and cannot run normal ubuntu with gnome as it requires 256mb ram i ran the live cd of xubuntu but didnt like it can anyone recommend another desktop envirnment i can install on u
[06:18] <amias> markelhas, test your harddisk by running hdparm -tT /dev/sda1 ( or wherever it actually is)
[06:18] <usser_> bluefox83 its not even supposed to use swap with 1gb memory should be enough
[06:18] <Dimensions> Hie Guys and Galz ... ... i have a large (29 GB) .dmg file which i want to copy ... what is the best way to do it ... can it be copied using dd ??? i tried with cp but that will take abt 5 hours ....
[06:18] <markelhas> bluefox83, but right now i'm using ubuntu with a old 256 sim and everything ok
[06:18] <treedy> should i use "nano" to do something on console ?
[06:18] <bluefox83> i have a gig of ram, and sometimes things get sluggish...
[06:19] <amias> Core2QUAD, use XDMCP to run a desktop session from your core2 machine on the p4
[06:19] <usser_> markelhas u mean dimm simm is obsolete for 10 years now
[06:19] <markelhas> sim
[06:19] <markelhas> yes
[06:19] <Core2QUAD> the pentium 4 machine is at another location
[06:19] <rob_p> treedy: What are you trying to do?
[06:19] <markelhas> i don't think the problem is in the hd
[06:19] <bluefox83> the only thing i can think of is that your power supply isn't pushing out enough power and everything is starving for power
[06:19] <kousotu> bluefox83: I have 512, and things get sluggish, it's natural
[06:19] <sipior> Dimensions: sure, you could use dd, but specify a large block size...
[06:19] <kousotu> an let me add, I'm using a laptop
[06:20] <sipior> Dimensions: depending on your disks, it may not be much faster than cp, frankly
[06:20] <markelhas> /dev/sda1:
[06:20] <markelhas>  Timing cached reads:   670 MB in  2.00 seconds = 334.84 MB/sec
[06:20] <markelhas>  Timing buffered disk reads:   66 MB in  3.01 seconds =  21.95 MB/sec
[06:20] <amias> markelhas, disk seems fine to me
[06:20] <markelhas> amias, timming is nice
[06:20] <markelhas> yap
[06:20] <amias> markelhas, are there errors in your Dmesg
[06:20] <Dimensions> sipior:  you are right but dd from RH works many times faster ....
[06:20] <Core2QUAD> no other ideas/
[06:21] <Dimensions> sipior:  im not sure if we can use dd to copy a file thought ... i have used it for disk backups ...
[06:21] <markelhas> amias, i think no
[06:21] <sipior> Dimensions: i'm fairly certain it's the same dd :-) if the block size is appropriate, and the disk throughput isn't an issue, then you're good to go
[06:21] <markelhas> amias, i've found some think about a "The mysterious 880 MB limit on x86"
[06:21] <sipior> Dimensions: dd if="input" of="output" bs=something big
[06:22] <markelhas> amias, http://gentoo-wiki.com/FAQ_Linux_Memory_Management
[06:22] <amias> Core2QUAD, there are lots of distros for low memory machines , google for them
[06:22] <mariqn> I have a problem with my internet (Ubuntu). I have internet 5min,then disconect..then i have net .. and the same again. Where is the problem? Under windows i haven't any problems?
[06:22] <markelhas> amias, says that i should recompile kernel!!!!
[06:22] <usser_> mariqn do u have dsl?
[06:22] <Frogzoo> markelhas: you using ppp?
[06:22] <usser_> mariqn wireless?
[06:22] <markelhas> amias, does ubuntu kernel already compiled with this option!?
[06:23] <markelhas> Frogzoo, can't say!
[06:23] <amias> mariqn, need more info - is it wireless , what the hardware , what version of the drivers / firmware
[06:23] <mariqn> usser_ pppoe(dsl)
[06:23] <Frogzoo> markelhas: more details, so we don't all have to guess your setup
[06:23] <markelhas> Frogzoo, what's that!? sorry?
[06:23] <markelhas> Frogzoo, sorry but i'm a little new on ubuntu/linux
[06:24] <Frogzoo> markelhas: describe your setup
[06:24] <markelhas> Frogzoo, when i boot my ubuntu i've to put noapic, cause otherwise it won't boot at all
[06:24] <Frogzoo> mariqn: more details, so we don't all have to guess your setup
[06:24] <markelhas> Frogzoo, i've only ubuntu on my laptop, made the standard install
[06:24] <darlek> he means describe your hardware
[06:25] <markelhas> Frogzoo, with noapic option
[06:25] <darlek> noapic is commom for laptops.  so what kind of laptop?
[06:25] <markelhas> Frogzoo, it's ASUS M3N with 1gm mem and a 60gb disk
[06:25] <markelhas> centrino 1.6 ghz
[06:26] <markelhas> http://www.overclockers.com/articles1235/
[06:26] <amias> markelhas, if you can get to the desktop it might be worth running the cpu speed panel applet to see if acpi is slowing down your processor
[06:26] <markelhas> it was 512m by default and i've a other 512m
[06:27] <b0wlman> I have screwed up my top panel, how can i revert it to default??
[06:27] <markelhas> amias, but i'm running with noapic option!
[06:28] <amias> markelhas, apic is Advanced Programmable Interupt Controller , its not the same as ACPI
[06:28] <markelhas> i add to remove the 512m an put a 256m because of the performance problem that i talking
[06:28] <markelhas> amias, oki sorry!
[06:28] <markelhas> amias, when i put the 512m the boot process takes something like 12-15 mins
[06:29] <amias> markelhas, how much memory does /proc/meminfo report under memtotal ?
[06:29] <markelhas> i didn't try other linux distro, but i think this is no a problem form the distro
[06:29] <markelhas> amias, should i execute that command!?
[06:30] <amias> markelhas, its a file , cat /proc/meminfo
[06:30] <markelhas> @ this momment i've the 256m

[06:32] <amias> bluefox83, scratch it
[06:32] <bluefox83> i bet i got bit by a dang mosquito
[06:32] <CoasterMaster> How long does it take to hack in new support for iPods under rhythmbox?
[06:32] <markelhas> amias, this mem is not mine :(
[06:32] <markelhas> amias, i've asked for a friend just to check.
[06:33] <bluefox83> CoasterMaster, uh....this isn't really a good place for that...
[06:33] <amias> CoasterMaster, depends how good your coding skills are
[06:33] <CoasterMaster> amias: touche :)
[06:34] <markelhas> amias, i really like this distro, but can't solve this problem at all. i think that eaven if i try other like opensuse or fedora i'll have this problem...
[06:34] <sunnypies> sipior: we figured it out,  a bunch of permissions were changed but thanks for the help
[06:34] <amias> markelhas, might be informative , remeber that livecd's will use some of the memory to cache the cd
[06:34] <Soup_> how do I add a shortcut to ubuntu desktop?

[06:35] <amias> Soup_ : it means you asked a question that doesn't really make sense
[06:35] <apo> Soup_: Open a terminal and type "ln -s /where/the/folder/is ~/Desktop/Nameoftheshortcut"
[06:36] <Soup_> ok let me try again
[06:36] <markelhas> amias, yes i think the livecd works just fine cause uses the 512m base.
[06:36] <sam__> Hi guys, I'm running Ubuntu on a PS3 and the only media player I can get to work correctly is Movie-Player (and it's not great) the rest all chop off the beginning of my songs... any tips? Finding it difficult to come up with good search terms.

[06:40] <ikonia> protocol2 no, %100 not automatix
[06:40] <protocol2> ok

[06:40] <neverblue> markelhas, is it having issues with connecting to the network? where does the system hang, have you tried using safemode to see if the issues still occur ?
[06:41] <ikonia> dolog yes, but if you don't know it - you shouldn't be using it
[06:41] <bastid_raZor> markelhas, sounds like you have two different sticks of RAM.. the 512 may not be compatible with your MB

[06:41] <Soup_> now only 1 issues cant get 5.1 surround sound working
[06:41] <dolog> ikonia: Just give me it :)
[06:41] <xwind> anyone know how to transfer files from linux partition to windows partition?
[06:41] <sam__> anyone know anything about the beginnings of audio files getting muted/chopped ? happens with every media player I try except MoviePlayer which is vlc? I guess?
[06:42] <bastid_raZor> markelhas, when using the 256 it runs fine?
[06:42] <neverblue> markelhas, i asked a series of questions though, can you please reply
[06:42] <markelhas> bastid_raZor, i've tested 2 different 512m same problem, done the memtest to
[06:42] <markelhas> bastid_raZor, yes
[06:42] <markelhas> neverblue, no i can connect to network, i've not test the samemode.
[06:42] <bastid_raZor> markelhas, to me it sounds like bad RAM.
[06:43] <markelhas> bastid_raZor, the testmem says that the 2 512m that i test are ok.
[06:43] <amias> markelhas, are the memory chips identical ?
[06:43] <esperegu> Hi! anyone knows how I can get rid of this annoing error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36457/
[06:43] <markelhas> bastid_raZor, in windows work fine, but i now that different access.
[06:43] <esperegu> (apt-get error)
[06:43] <esperegu> a package can not be upgraded
[06:44] <markelhas> amias, nopes, on is king.... other don't now
[06:44] <markelhas> *know
[06:44] <Ray_at_UW> esperegu: Have you tried doing it as sudo?
[06:44] <dolog> any one Can give me the Command for rest password of root ?
[06:44] <ikonia> dolog why do you want it
[06:44] <bastid_raZor> markelhas, what speed is the 256? (pc5200, pc3200?) what speed is the 512?
[06:44] <ikonia> dolog you're supposed to use sudo
[06:44] <amias> markelhas, one of them is probably slowing down the other
[06:44] <markelhas> bastid_raZor, i can't responde that right,cause i don't now
[06:44] <markelhas> *know
[06:45] <markelhas> amias, the laptop was 512m base, and a bay to expand
[06:45] <dolog> ikonia: Thanks I get The password just i was forget it ,
[06:45] <esperegu> Ray_at_UW: Yeah. that's not the problem. I have this error already for several months and did many updates in between.
[06:45] <markelhas> amias, the problem is when i expand the mem is a dim larger that 256 i think
[06:45] <bastid_raZor> markelhas, ok, that is what you need to find out. just any stick of ram will not work. it has to be the same speed and compatible with your MB.
[06:45] <amias> markelhas, try it with a chip that exactly matches the existing one
[06:46] <b_9> would someone recommend a source that explains how linux works and explains what processes and services are necessary and which aren't
[06:46] <amias> b_9: tdlp.org
[06:46] <markelhas> bastid_raZor, the 2 512 m where working with windows.
[06:46] <amias> b_9, oops sorry http://www.tldp.org/
[06:46] <Frogzoo> b_9: -> tldp.org
[06:47] <markelhas> amias, i cant check the exiting one. cause it's not accessible.
[06:47] <amias> markelhas, go to crucial.com and use the wizard to find out what memory your need
[06:47] <markelhas> amias, i can only acess to expansion bay
[06:47] <Aminux> i have a problem here,when i try to watch a movie i can only hear the sound and i can only see a black screen flashing
[06:47] <markelhas> amias ok
[06:47] <Urilockz> sounds like a RAM problem
[06:47] <Urilockz> I could be mistaken
[06:47] <Ray_at_UW> esperegu: I'm just trying to help here... but apparently it's solved here: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?p=38942#38942 (Not too sure though)

[06:48] <markelhas> Aminux, try to disable desktop effects
[06:48] <Urilockz> sudo apt-get update?
[06:48] <b_9> thanks amias!
[06:48] <amias> Aminux, sounds like your screen is trying to use a resolution that is higher that it can use in fullscreen mode  , check the resolution of your movie
[06:48] <soederqvist> Hey guys, could you help emd install drivers to my soundcard, it a soundblaster live 5.1
[06:48] <linuxemacs> which movie player you are choice?
[06:48] <esperegu> Ray_at_UW: I know. u help is appreaciated!
[06:48] <ikonia> dolog look for the package in synaptic
[06:48] <darlok> I have three extra buttons on my mouse (in addition to left, right, and middle).  I'm trying to figure out which button in CompizFusion corresponds to which button on my mouse... anyone know how I can figure this out?
[06:48] <ikonia> dolog there is a gtk and gnome version
[06:48] <amias> soederqvist, it should just work , mine did
[06:48] <dolog> ikonia: am useing gnome
[06:48] <soederqvist> amias hmm
[06:49] <Urilockz> darlok: I guess it's just trial and error unless someone else has been in the same position
[06:49] <car_watt> one question How, I see the file of comman of all the users in the server
[06:49] <amias> soederqvist, it should use the emu10k1 module
[06:49] <ikonia> dolog that doesn't matter, you can use either gnome or gtk intergration
[06:49] <darlok> Urilockz: Yeah, I tried trial and error.... now I just don't think Linux KNOWS about the extra buttons ;)
[06:49] <Urilockz> oh.
[06:50] <amias> darlok, you will probably need to sepcify them in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:50] <tatters> I want to upgrade my 2 desktops and 1 laptop from from feisty to gutsy,  if I upgrade 1 machine is there anyway to upgrade the rest with the new packages previously downloaded on first machine
[06:50] <darlok> amias: Yeah, I guess that would make sense.  I'll live without them, I suppose.... no sense screwing up my system to use a few buttons I never needed before ;)
[06:50] <amias> darlok, just back up the file before your edit and you will be fine
[06:51] <darlok> amias: No, I know to do that.  I just wouldn't have any clue how to specify new buttons in there... so I'd rather not try ;)
[06:51] <esperegu> Ray_at_UW: hmm. that looks like another error. But it was not really solved there
[06:51] <Ray_at_UW> esperegu: Hey, this seems to be it. The code put up looks almost exactly like your pastebin: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hotkey-setup/+bug/88105
[06:51] <GyrosGeier> hi
[06:52] <GyrosGeier> as far as I've understood, hardy has been forked?
[06:52] <PriceChild> !offtopic | GyrosGeier
[06:52] <ubotu> GyrosGeier: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:52] <GyrosGeier> mmmkay
[06:53] <Aminux> this is weird
[06:53] <amias> tatters : the update manager has a bug that prevents it from working , you might have to do it manually
[06:53] <bastid_raZor> GyrosGeier, heh, some people are tards
[06:53] <teste_tux> Hi everyone
[06:53] <Aminux> i have turned off the desktop effects but still no movie picture
[06:53] <amias> tatters, you could always copy the contents of /var/cache/apt/archives/
[06:54] <amias> Aminux, try  vlc instead
[06:54] <amias> Aminux, or try a different video driver for your movie player
[06:54] <teste_tux> anyone here knows how to use a keyboard make two diferent actions? or how to say in a script to sheel recognize the keyboard input like make a ctrl +c copy and start a little scrippt
[06:54] <tatters> what size would I be looking at to host a local mirror of packages
[06:54] <elzbal> Aminux, I haven't been following the full conversation, but have you installed all the video codecs? It sounds like maybe you havent.
[06:54] <ward_> dyrne, remember me? (i asked advice yesterday for my friends P1 150Mhz)
[06:55] <Aminux> amias: i have tried diferent video players
[06:55] <cox377> does anyone know off the top of their head the command to make a file executable?
[06:55] <ikonia> cox377 chmod 7xxx
[06:55] <ikonia> or #=x
[06:55] <ikonia> +x
[06:55] <amias> cox377, chmod u+x file
[06:55] <elzbal> Animux: In particular, have you installed the win32codecs?
[06:55] <markelhas> amias, i've check the site and the 512 mems that i have are compatible with my laptop.
[06:55] <cox377> cheers guys
[06:56] <Aminux> elzbal: it was after i installed beryl that i started having this problem
[06:56] <Aminux> elzbal:i have the codecs
[06:57] <Moniker42_> hey, i put a new graphics card in, ubuntu worked as before - then i rebooted and now X won't start
[06:57] <Davy_Jones> #piracy > Davy_Jones
[06:57] <markelhas> amias, i'm totally blackout with this mem problem.
[06:57] <Davy_Jones> !piracy > Davy_Jones
[06:57] <amias> Moniker42_, you will need to reconfigure it to use the new card
[06:58] <scrip> Moniker42_: you need a dpkg-reconfigure
[06:58] <Moniker42_> amias: okay how do i do that?
[06:58] <teste_tux> have you ever tried dpkg-reocnfigure xserver-xorg
[06:58] <scrip> what is it? dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:58] <scrip> heh, yeah
[06:58] <teste_tux> almost in the same time
[06:58] <Moniker42_> k, i'll try that
[06:58] <markelhas> neverblue, hi, can u please try to help!
[06:59] <neverblue> pardon ?
[06:59] <ikonia> markelhas: just to get this straight, you've got a memory problem when you run 512mb of ram, but not 256
[06:59] <markelhas> neverblue, about my mem problem :P
[06:59] <ikonia> and the problem is only in ubuntu - not windows or memtest
[06:59] <tatters> amias,    So if I copied  or made available /var/cache/apt/archives/    as a share on my lan, I could set the other machines to use that as my  source for updates
[06:59] <neverblue> markelhas, what is your question ?
[06:59] <genii> Moniker42_: Be prepared to know what settings your card and monitor can do, as well as what kind of mouse etc you have. The reconfigure will go through all this stuff
[06:59] <markelhas> ikonia, yap, right now i'm using the 256 m form a friend and everything ok
[07:00] <markelhas> neverblue, :|
[07:00] <ikonia> markelhas and if you use 512 with say windows - thats not a problem, it works well
[07:00] <amias> tatters, yep , although it will need to be writeable and have its userid/name mapping in sync
[07:00] <markelhas> where it goes again. i've a asus m3n with 1 gb of mem, when i try to boot ubutun the system is very very very slow, slower than the livecd. I've made the memtest and no errors found. I've tested a different 512 mem and same problem. Later i've put a 256 mem and it works just fine. What can i do to use 1g mem in my ubuntu?
[07:00] <ikonia> markelhas could you define "slow" is it slow at bootup, slow in general use etc etc
[07:00] <markelhas> ikonia, in windows evereything just ok with 512
[07:00] <ToolBust> can any body tell me what is the path to the modules?
[07:00] <neverblue> markelhas, seems you have lots of help, why are you directing questions to me ?
[07:01] <teste_tux> people someone knows how to declare a keyboard button on a shell script?
[07:01] <markelhas> ikonia, os takes 12-15 mins to boot, and when it does if i try to open terminal for example takes toooooooooo long and the cpu jump to 100%
[07:01] <GyrosGeier> system becoming slow with more memory smells of cache controller being unable to handle that much memory
[07:01] <ikonia> markelhas what version of ubuntu is this ?
[07:01] <markelhas> neverblue, cause u give me some tips then stop , just that.
[07:01] <markelhas> 7.04
[07:01] <tatters> amias, thnx, ill give it a shot seems pretty straight forward
[07:02] <markelhas> ikonia, 7.04
[07:02] <ikonia> markelhas: and that runs fine with 256 ?
[07:02] <GyrosGeier> I have a box like that too, only that it's a 486 with 64 MB of RAM, and only 48 supported by the cache controller
[07:02] <esperegu> Ray_at_UW: That seems to have fixed the problem. Wonder why I did not see that page before. Thanks for you help mate!
[07:02] <jaw> hi, how do I write a script that starts up a program every time the computer starts up? is this something with /etc/init.d?
[07:02] <Ray_at_UW> esperegu: Glad I could help. :)
[07:02] <ikonia> jaw spot on
[07:02] <ToolBust> can any body tell me what is the path to the modules?
[07:02] <neverblue> markelhas, i am currently working, if you have something specific you need to ask me, then please, go ahead, but as for messaging, ill have to ask you to stop, thanks
[07:02] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, try booting it with 512MB of RAM inserted, and mem=256M kernel option
[07:02] <ikonia> ToolBust which modules
[07:02] <Moniker42_> fatal server error: no screens found
[07:02] <markelhas> ikonia, it last updates, yes but this mem isn't mine i only have 2 512m that don't work, but the memtest passed
[07:03] <ToolBust> the file ended in .ko
[07:03] <markelhas> neverblue, ok
[07:03] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, if that runs at normal speed, it is most likely that your mainboard chipset cannot handle that much memory
[07:03] <ikonia> ToolBust the kernel objects
[07:03] <jaw> ikonia, now isn't it important to run it as a different user? I don't want to just /blah/blah/bin/script because it'll run as root? right?
[07:03] <ToolBust> yes
[07:03] <Pelo> what is avahi good for ?  my internet connection is a very basic dsl with a bridge model , using pppoe , so I need avahi ?
[07:03] <ikonia> jaw: init scripts will be executed as root
[07:03] <markelhas> GyrosGeier, i can try that by editing boot option right!?
[07:03] <ikonia> markelhas what type of machine is this ?
[07:04] <jaw> ikonia, in redhat they have something called runuser which seems to change the user it runs as, do we have something like that in ubuntu?
[07:04] <markelhas> GyrosGeier, says that can 1G and in windows was working with 1G
[07:04] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, yes; you can do that at the boot prompt, no need to edit files
[07:04] <ToolBust> ikonia can you tell me where they are?
[07:04] <markelhas> laptop asus m3n 1.6 ghz
[07:04] <ikonia> jaw not quite, keep in mind the script gets executed as root - but inside that script you can change user
[07:04] <ikonia> ToolBust /lib/modules/$kernel/version
[07:04] <ikonia> oops
[07:04] <ikonia> ToolBust /lib/modules/$kernel_version
[07:04] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, I think Windows could use the extra memory as swapspace rather than "real" memory
[07:04] <jaw> ikonia, so su -u to switch users?
[07:04] <markelhas> i've found this http://gentoo-wiki.com/FAQ_Linux_Memory_Management#The_mysterious_880_MB_limit_on_x86
[07:04] <ToolBust> ikonia thanks
[07:04] <cookie-102> who is the owner of this channel?
[07:05] <ikonia> jaw su -$user will
[07:05] <GyrosGeier> this would mean you do not notice the slowdown
[07:05] <ikonia> cookie-102 ubuntu
[07:05] <cookie-102> ok
[07:05] <markelhas> GyrosGeier, ikonia i've found this http://gentoo-wiki.com/FAQ_Linux_Memory_Management#The_mysterious_880_MB_limit_on_x86
[07:05] <mrhex> Simple question i suspect, I cant get the run command prompt to show with ALT + F2. using Keyboard preferences -> layouts -> Sweden
[07:05] <ikonia> jaw it depends what you want to do, as there are many options
[07:05] <markelhas> is this a realoty in ubuntu!?
[07:06] <markelhas> *reality
[07:06] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, I think most kernels these days have HIGHMEM enabled
[07:06] <ikonia> markelhas: just having a read, I've never heard of an 880 limit
[07:06] <markelhas> ok
[07:06] <ikonia> ahhh the highmem limit
[07:06] <GyrosGeier> and it wouldn't be a problem with 512MB
[07:06] <Pelo> markelhas, my memory is 968 meg and linux recognises it
[07:06] <GyrosGeier> as I said, try once with all the memory installed, but telling Linux to only use part of it
[07:06] <markelhas> GyrosGeier, but the laptop has 512m based and one expansion bay
[07:06] <hawk> markelhas: It's a reality, sure... But the Ubuntu default kernel probably has highmem support
[07:06] <ToolBust> ikonia can you tell me where is the file that I can put a list of modules so the pc can load them at the boot
[07:07] <jaw> ikonia, thanks, I'm trying to port this RedHat script over to ubuntu. http://studios.thoughtworks.com/discussion/forums/4/topics/271
[07:07] <amias> markelhas, that won't slow it down , it will just not use all of it
[07:07] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, so 512M is fine?
[07:07] <ikonia> markelhas how can it have 512 based - yet your using 256
[07:07] <markelhas> hawk, ok
[07:07] <MOTZ> how can i change die passwort what ubuntu asks for changing system?
[07:07] <MOTZ> or even turn off
[07:07] <ikonia> ToolBust depends what you want to use, modules should be loaded automaticlly
[07:07] <markelhas> GyrosGeier, nop, with the 256 extra ok, but this extra 256 aren't mine
[07:07] <amias> MOTZ, System->Preferences->AboutMe
[07:08] <ToolBust> if I put a new sound module it loads automaticaly when I reboot?
[07:08] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, ah, so 768 works, 1G doesn't
[07:08] <ikonia> jaw: just reading
[07:08] <markelhas> ikonia, i'm using 256 in the expansion bay
[07:08] <markelhas> GyrosGeier, yes
[07:08] <ToolBust> ikonia if I put a new sound module it loads automaticaly when I reboot?
[07:08] <amias> markelhas, i think you should file a bug report at launchpad.net
[07:08] <ikonia> markelhas: thats totally different to what you said before
[07:08] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, that could indeed be HIGHMEM then, or cache
[07:08] <GyrosGeier> sec
[07:08] <ikonia> ToolBust depends, is the "new" module not part of the kernel
[07:08] <markelhas> ikonia, sorry but my English is not the best
[07:08] <ikonia> GyrosGeier can't see it being the old highmem limit, thats long dead
[07:09] <ikonia> markelhas not a problem
[07:09] <ikonia> GyrosGeier your test is the based way - just put all the ram in and do "mem=512"
[07:09] <ikonia> at boot time
[07:09] <MOTZ> not the user pass i would like to disable the pw he asks when i change system things
[07:10] <MOTZ> that somethinh like user control in vista ;)
[07:10] <markelhas> ikonia, that way it only use the based mem right!?
[07:10] <ikonia> jaw: that looks fine to port - you /may/ want to check out "su -c"
[07:10] <ikonia> markelhas yes
[07:10] <GyrosGeier> ikonia, from what I've gathered, the problem appears between 768M and 1G
[07:10] <markelhas> ikonia, ok then i'll try that
[07:10] <kleftisx> hello can anyone knows how to install ubuntu studio on feisty fawn 7.04 64bit ??
[07:10] <markelhas> GyrosGeier, yap it's true
[07:10] <ikonia> GyrosGeier yup, so if he has 1 gig in, but config's only 512 he should be fine in theory
[07:10] <amias> MOTZ: there is a way to do it but you will remove lots of very usefull security
[07:11] <ikonia> kleftisx use synaptic
[07:11] <MOTZ> ok
[07:11] <ikonia> kleftisx however its better to use the actual ubuntustudio distro
[07:11] <MOTZ> ill forget it ;)
[07:11] <syntaxx> hello is there a way i could show the print history in windows client when using cups? as i encountered it doesnt show the print history on windows client when i tried to print
[07:11] <GyrosGeier> ikonia, so the idea would be to test 800M next; if that slows down, it is most likely the cache controller not handling anything above 768M
[07:11] <ikonia> GyrosGeier exactly
[07:11] <magnetik> Hello
[07:11] <GyrosGeier> ikonia, if it doesn't, probably HIGHMEM; next test would be 900M then
[07:11] <kleftisx> ikonia : i cant use it as a program in ubuntu? is like another os? :O
[07:12] <jaw> ikonia, thanks -- i'll need to find the alternative for chkconfigadd mingled as well
[07:12] <GyrosGeier> whee
[07:12] <ikonia> kleftisx not its a collection of programs, but the ubuntu studio packaging is geared towards the ubutnu studio distro
[07:12] <amias> GyrosGeier, but how would that make it slower than it was with 512MB ?
[07:12] <Anlar> GyrosGeier: highmen limit was bumped up by kernel devs because most of the people have at least 1024 anyways? to 1100 or something like that?
[07:12] <markelhas> GyrosGeier, can i force to use the HIGHMEM ?
[07:12] <ikonia> jaw thats a simple if / else statment
[07:12] <ToolBust> ikonia I think not...I'm taking a module from an other distribution....because my sound works on my actual distribution but not the jack connectors and on the other distribution it works....can I take the modules from the other distribution to my actual?
[07:12] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, that's a kernel config option that is most likely set (so it's unlikely that this is your problem)
[07:12] <ikonia> ToolBust you can't drop modules in from other distros
[07:13] <ToolBust> why not
[07:13] <markelhas> GyrosGeier, ok
[07:13] <ikonia> ToolBust: because they are built against a different OS
[07:13] <GyrosGeier> amias, some cache controllers have a hard limit on the largest physical addresses they handle
[07:13] <GyrosGeier> amias, if you access memory beyond that, you lose CPU caches. And that hurts. A lot.
[07:14] <markelhas> so if i boot with mem=880it should work just fine!?
[07:14] <ToolBust> I'm using big linux 3 and I whant to take the modules from big linux 4
[07:14] <dolog> ikonia: How I CAN GET EX_CHAT FOR UBUNTU ?
[07:14] <ToolBust> ikonia I'm using big linux 3 and I whant to take the modules from big linux 4
[07:14] <GyrosGeier> Anlar, there are three settings IIRC, no highmem, small highmem and large highmem
[07:14] <amias> GyrosGeier: HIGHMEM is set on all ubuntu kernels
[07:14] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, I'd try 800 and 900
[07:14] <bastid_raZor> dolog apt-get install xchat
[07:14] <ikonia> dolog please don't shout
[07:14] <Anlar> oh
[07:14] <markelhas> ok see u soon
[07:14] <Dr_willis> dolog,  you mean 'xchat' ?
[07:14] <GyrosGeier> markelhas, exactly 880 won't tell much
[07:14] <claudiu> dolog: open add-remove programs and search for xchat
[07:14] <Dr_willis> !info xchat
[07:14] <ubotu> xchat: IRC client for X similar to AmIRC. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.8.0-0ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 295 kB, installed size 796 kB

[07:15] <ToolBust> ikonia I'm using big linux 3 and I whant to take the modules from big linux 4....aren't those distros made on the same kernel?
[07:15] <Dr_willis> ToolBust,  i wouldent rely on doing it that way.
[07:15] <GyrosGeier> amias, excellent; so I'll assume that is not the problem then.
[07:16] <ikonia> ToolBust no

[07:21] <gary4gar> does ubuntu 7.10 supports tv out?
[07:21] <Dr_willis> gary4gar,  that would be a feature of your video card drivers.
[07:21] <amias> right i'm frazzled
[07:21] <amias> one last time for luck - has anyone succesfully upgraded from feisty to gutsy using update-manager ?
[07:22] <stefg> !gutsy | amias
[07:22] <ubotu> amias: 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
[07:22] <gary4gar> how is support for fineger print readers in linux?
[07:23] <amias> stefg, and what system is it thats not working at the moment and preventing my upgrade ? i'll give you a clue it begins with an F
[07:23] <gary4gar> oops! fingerprint reader i mean
[07:23] <ticked> hey again, told ya your gonna see alot of me
[07:23] <bluefox83> amias, i don't think update-manager will let you upgrade just yet...you need to wait till gutsy is an official release before trying that way to my knowledge
[07:23] <Dr_willis> gary4gar,  best bet would be to google the forums for that topic and your specific brand finger print reader.  I get the feeling most people 'in the know' consider them useless. :)

[07:24] <amias> bluefox83, no , there is a bug in the update manager where it miscalcuates the disk space it needs

[07:27] <Dr_willis> SoulChild,  i agree with amias
[07:27] <private_guy> Hi there everyone
[07:27] <private_guy> I just installed ubuntu
[07:27] <private_guy> and its not booting
[07:27] <private_guy> how come? :(
[07:27] <private_guy> It just loads windowsd
[07:27] <private_guy> *windows
[07:28] <SoulChild> amias: what is rdev ?
[07:28] <amias> private_guy, grub is not installed
[07:28] <AngryElf> how do I su to www-data for testing purposes... it's prompting for a password?
[07:28] <private_guy> Whats Grub
[07:28] <private_guy> and how do I install it
[07:28] <stefg> SoulChild: of course there is no general guide ... that completly depends on what hardware you have. If it wouldn't differ from box to box, it wouldn't be an option, but a builtin
[07:28] <Dr_willis> private_guy,  given the VERBOSE description you gave - we have no idea. Do you even see a 'menu' to pick the os to boot?
[07:28] <amias> SoulChild, i can see a google search in your near future

[07:28] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:28] <private_guy> No
[07:28] <private_guy> It just boots to windows
[07:28] <private_guy> No boot to ubunutu :(

[07:28] <SoulChild> amias :D
[07:28] <Dr_willis> private_guy,  what is your hard drive layout? theres no need to spam across several lines... keep it on one line.
[07:29] <private_guy> Samsung
[07:29] <amias> private_guy, grub is a bootloader , it lets you choose ubuntu or windows at startup
[07:29] <private_guy> *But before on ubuntu 6, it used to boot without any software or program needed
[07:29] <john> hi, is it normal for my internal hard disk to be detected as sda?
[07:29] <stefg> SoulChild: but you're learning what depends on what in the kernel. You'll need your disk-adapters supported for sure, and the filesystems you're using. Do you have a general understanding of hardware, the boot-process in linux and the initramfs-concept?
[07:30] <private_guy> Internal Yes
[07:30] <Dr_willis> private_guy,  it was using grub befor most likely. its a good sign that it DID work befor.
[07:30] <amias> john: yes its the new black
[07:30] <john> ok
[07:30] <john> thanks
[07:30] <cyberjames> hi, how to unzip all zip files instead of doing manual command for each zip file like unzip *.zip ??
[07:30] <Dr_willis> cyberjames,  use the wildcards INSIDE Quotes.
[07:30] <amias> cyberjames, google for 'bash for loop'
[07:30] <Dr_willis> cyberjames,  unzip is one of the few progrmas ive seen that work tha tway
[07:31] <Dr_willis> unzip '*.zip'   SHOULD work.
[07:31] <tyoc> I have also a *problem* with GRUB, it raise when I switch my mother board....
[07:31] <cyberjames> okey let me try
[07:31] <SoulChild> stefg: everything except the initramfs ,... i deactivated and also didn't create it when i compiled my kernel, cause i want to built just the things in, that i need
[07:31] <Dr_willis> Unless of course you got 100000000000000+ zips... then ya hit another issue. :)
[07:31] <cyberjames> thanks Dr_willis

[07:32] <Dr_willis> cyberjames,  that dosent work on all programs. :) ive only seen that work for unzip and a few others.
[07:32] <graulich> how do I share a folder between two Ubuntu machines on one LAN?
[07:32] <Dr_willis> graulich,  depends. on what you are sharing, and how you want to do it.
[07:33] <tyoc> telequinesis?? :D
[07:33] <amias> ubotu: initramfs is a special filesystem used when booting up , it contains lots of modules that are needed to start the machine but might have otherwise been unavailable untill the machine was started
[07:33] <yrlnry_> How do I found out which java alternative is currently selected via update-java-alternatives?
[07:33] <Dr_willis> graulich,  ive been using the fuse ssh, filesystem tool to let my one user get to his home dir on another machine easially.
[07:33] <Malder> Is there any way to install ubuntu without formatting/wiping out all my config files?
[07:33] <tyoc> update-alternatives --list java
[07:33] <tyoc> or some like that
[07:33] <graulich> Dr_willis, I wanna make it so I can place files from machine #1 in a folder on machine #2
[07:33] <Dr_willis> graulich,  if you have several users, you may want to set up some samba shares, if only linux mchines. nfs shares.
[07:33] <Dr_willis> graulich,  that description is rather... undescriptive. :)
[07:33] <stefg> SoulChild: the initramfs is needed for a lot of things, and by no means a waste of resources. I'd suggest first to study the 'from power-up to bash prompt' howto, to get a general understanding. Although it's outdated, it still gives an idea of what's going on
[07:34] <Dr_willis> graulich,  many users, 1 user? windows machines? just Linux.. ect.. :)
[07:34] <rockets> Is there any type of automatic update notification for ubuntu server?
[07:34] <graulich> Dr_willis, two Ubuntu machines, one user each.
[07:34] <Dr_willis> graulich,  for simple file transfers, ssh  and scp (and the fuse ssh stuff) is well worth learning.
[07:34] <SoulChild> stefg but do i really need a initramfs ?
[07:35] <Dr_willis> graulich,  you need to install ssh on the machines, actually the gnome file manager i THINK has a feature to do that. But i rarely use the gnome file manager.
[07:35] <jstarcher> how do I reinstall a package?
[07:35] <amias> rockets, you could run 'apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' in roots cron on a daily basis , but are you realy sure you want it to auto update a server , things might break
[07:35] <Malder> is there any way to install ubuntu without the liveCD mode first? Just go straight to the desktop installation - maybe even command line only?
[07:35] <Dr_willis> graulich,  i knwo KDEs file manager has a  fish:// thing for ssh file transfering. Not sure if ignome has a similer.
[07:35] <amias> Malder, see the alternate CDs
[07:35] <graulich> thx Dr_willis but I think I'll just use my usb disk right now... too tired to start learning stuff.
[07:35] <private_guy> Dr_willis Oh, so on Ubuntu 7, it doesn't have Grub?
[07:36] <Dr_willis> private_guy,  it should be using grub as well.
[07:36] <Malder> amias: thx
[07:36] <stefg> SoulChild: if you run usplash: yes. if you don't have /all/ modules needed to acces the root-fs statically built in the kernel: yes. If you want a non-modular, clumsy kernel: no!
[07:36] <rockets> amias, i dont want auto update i want auto update notifications.
[07:36] <amias> Dr_Wills: nautilus will do some kind of scp/ssh transfers
[07:36] <Dr_willis> graulich,  SSH and scp, and fusessh, are worth bookmarking/learning about. :)
[07:36] <wetware1967> graulich, nfs will do the trick for you. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249889&highlight=NFS+file+sharing
[07:36] <soeren21> My pc reboots after graphical login. Without an installed samba package there is no problem!
[07:36] <private_guy> So howcome ubuntu isn't showing on the boot menu, what did I do wrong Dr_willis
[07:37] <ticked> ok i am at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins?action=show&redirect=FirefoxAMD64FlashJava and it says to type at the terminal  tar -zxf firefox-2.0.0.6.tar.gz when i do, no go, so i assume i have to navigate to destop in terminal but i cant seem to do that ....keeps saying no such directory
[07:37] <Dr_willis> private_guy,  i would have to say that the MBR installed to the wrong drive. as a guess...  or it failed to install.

[07:37] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[07:37] <amias> rockets, then just don't do the apt-get updgrade bit and look files being downloaded in the output of apt-get update
[07:37] <private_guy> where do I enter that command
[07:37] <ticked> arg i am such a newbie at this, hate this feeling
[07:37] <tyoc> what if !fixgrub doesnt help me at all??
[07:37] <ni1s> is Compiz-Fusion the compiz package?
[07:38] <private_guy> And i installed it on my primary hardisk, shall I reinstall it, you suggest Dr_willis?
[07:38] <Dr_willis> private_guy,  thers no one command..  you need to 'read' how to fix grub.. or just reinstall and see if any error messages show up, or try the alternative install cd.
[07:38] <Dr_willis> private_guy,  normally it goes on the mbr of the primary hd. Do you have just the 1 hd?
[07:38] <amias> right i'm going to go an hide , have fun everyone , play nicely
[07:38] <tyoc> the alternative install CD can use a USB??
[07:39] <Dr_willis> tyoc,  what do you mean 'use' ? you mean install to a usb hard drive?
[07:39] <private_guy> 2 Hardisks, unless Ubuntu thought HDD number 2 was primary?
[07:39] <tyoc> yea, I dont have where to burn for the momment
[07:39] <Dr_willis> private_guy,  as a test. i would set the pc to boot off the 2nd hd first. (in the bios) or some pc's have a Fkey to change what hd to boot.
[07:40] <Dr_willis> private_guy,  i would guess it isntalled to the other hd, as a first guess. :)
[07:40] <private_guy> Oh yeah, Because ever since I installed Windows Vista (which i removed it) it kept on confusing the primary with the logical

[07:45] <stefg> sean_^_: ok... 'disk' is actually debian, doesn't exist in ubuntu, as i just saw. but you can use the user administration applet to add yourself to the right groups, no need to know them on low level
[07:46] <mats_> How i can install software? I can install it..
[07:46] <nandemonai> Toran, This may or may not be related but I've had issues with usb myself, device would offline 4-5 times before the system would pick it up but once it's mounted it seems to stay mounted. I have a feeling there might be a few issues with usb atm as I've had the same trouble with a couple keys I have here to. All the devices do work fine so it's not hardware. (at least for me it's not)
[07:46] <mats_> can't*

[07:47] <PriceChild> mats_, that's ubuntu's basic installer which will let you install lots of popular applications
[07:47] <Toran> nandemonai: Yeah, the device generally works fine too; it's a seagate, and it's nearly brand-new. there's no reason for it to do this
[07:47] <Toran> any ideas on how to fix it? it's fucking annoying
[07:48] <nandemonai> Toran, I did notice though that after trying Gutsy on another partition that I didn't get the same problems which also leads me to believe it's software or some such. Might want to wait for Gutsy.
[07:48] <timposey> my grub is messed up and I need to reinstall it.. at some point someone gave me a short command to run in terminal that fixed this problem before but I don't remember what it was.. Does anyone have any idea...???

[07:50] <ko_dez> Hi all. I have just installed kubuntu, and would like to do some development work on it, but I really need python-iconvcodec. It seems to have been dropped some time ago (2003?). What can I do about that?
[07:50] <GyrosGeier> Toran, Recommends:
[07:51] <GyrosGeier> Toran, you can tell your package tool of choice to ignore that.
[07:51] <Toran> Thanks
[07:51] <Dr_willis> ko_dez,  could always go to the source and install/compile it yourself.
[07:51] <stefg> Toran: my theory is that the drive spins down while there are still 'dirty' buffers. So the delayed write fails (drive is down), and the kernel gets a filesystem panic and puts the drive to read-only. 'dmesg' could tell if that's true
[07:51] <kbj> How do I move a folder in Gnome? or with the terminal?
[07:52] <Dr_willis> kbj,  just click/drag/drop it. ;)
[07:52] <ingsoc> kbj: mv dir newdir
[07:52] <Dr_willis> !bash

[07:52] <MOTZ> what does this mean ?
[07:52] <Toran> after it happens enough times, it gets so messed up sometimes I have to fsck the drive
[07:52] <davidthedrake> MOTZ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins
[07:52] <Dr_willis> MOTZ,  getting flash to work with the 64bit disrtos is not trivial.
[07:52] <ikonia> MOTZ x86_64 isn't support with flash
[07:52] <Toran> I'll pastebin my dmesg somewhere
[07:52] <Azzkikr> Flash player installer is probably only 32 bits
[07:52] <ko_dez> Dr_willis: that works, but will make me do that whenever there is an upgrade. I was thinking that if I have to do it anyway, maybe I should just make it available to everyone.
[07:53] <Dr_willis> ko_dez,  if its not been updated in 3 years.... well.. :) you do what you gotta do.
[07:53] <markelhas> how can i set the pass for wireless when booting ubuntu by default
[07:53] <MOTZ> i have 64 bit cpu ?
[07:53] <ikonia> MOTZ your running a 64bit OS
[07:53] <MOTZ> omg
[07:53] <MOTZ> i downloaded the false one  , cant be true
[07:53] <markelhas> ikonia, dude solved my problem
[07:54] <MOTZ> how can i check?
[07:54] <markelhas> Greyhound-, solved the mem problem
[07:54] <atoponce> when is the end-of-life support for breezy?
[07:54] <ko_dez> Dr_willis: so, I have taken the old version and updated the debian/control and debian/rules file, and it compiles just fine (even tried with both python2.4 and python2.5). Would it be interesting to get this updated version distributed somehow?
[07:54] <MOTZ> how check the  version
[07:54] <Dr_willis> ko_dez,  post a msg on the forums perhaps?
[07:54] <ikonia> markelhas explain

[07:55] <Matol> pls
[07:55] <Dr_willis> MOTZ,  just to clarify. you do NOT NOT NOT , NEED to run the 64bit disrto on a 64bit machine, the 32bit disrtos work just fine. :)
[07:55] <markelhas> Greyhound-, don't u remenber the mem problem that i add?
[07:55] <Matol>  ;D anyone ?

[07:55] <MOTZ> it was a fault
[07:55] <Greyhound-> I haven't talked in this channel in a few days :)
[07:55] <MOTZ> i wanted 32 bit
[07:55] <soederqvist> Can soemone help me? I cant get sound on my computer now with ubuntu, i have a soundblaster card
[07:56] <ikonia>  donload the 32bit one
[07:56] <boojah> I need some help. to use an application i needed to install libc6 (2.6.1-2) so i found it on http://packages.debian.org. I knew i had to remove alot of pther packages to install it, but i thought i'd give it a shot anyway (stupid, maybe) so now im stuck because i need the libc6-dev for the 2.6.1-2 version, but all i can seem to find for i386 is 2.6.1.1 +b1
[07:56] <Dr_willis> MOTZ,  there are several little issues that may trouble you if you run 64bit disrtos.  looks like you need to reinstall the 32bit disrto then.
[07:56] <kbj> Dr_willis: I figured it out.. couldnt drag drop dunno why but sudo mv dir newdir worked :D
[07:56] <markelhas> ikonia, Greyhound- by trying to boot with option mem=800 and them mem=900 and them with mem=1000M the os is working fine.
[07:56] <MOTZ> can i downgrade
[07:56] <ikonia> boojah don't install debian packages, its a different os
[07:56] <ikonia> MOTZ re-install
[07:56] <ko_dez> Dr_willis: sounds like a plan. I guess I will do that. You know where I should post it? ubuntu-devel or ubuntu-devel-discuss maybe?
[07:56] <nandemonai> MOTZ, Re-install is your only option if you don't want 64bit
[07:56] <markelhas> ikonia, i don't now but if i speficy the mem option 1g it works right
[07:56] <boojah> ikonia: dont ubuntu use debian packages?? like .deb files
[07:56] <KevinOman> hey anyone checked out linuxMCE?
[07:57] <MOTZ> looks like i burned the wrong iso to the cd
[07:57] <ikonia> boojah ubuntu uses debian format packages, not debian packages. Debian is a seperate OS, you just got packages for the Debian OS
[07:57] <MOTZ> damn
[07:57] <MOTZ> ahhhhhh
[07:57] <MOTZ> fuck
[07:57] <Dr_willis> ko_dez,  no idea there. :)

[07:58] <MOTZ> i downloaded the amd64 version omg
[07:58] <markelhas> how can i set the pass for wireless when booting ubuntu by default?
[07:58] <KevinOman> really ubotu must be asleep
[07:58] <PriceChild> KevinOman, seem pm
[07:58] <ikonia> KevinOman it sends it in a PM
[07:58] <boojah> ikonia: well ok, anyways, how can i either downgrade without removing all applications depending on libc6 back to 2.5 or get the dev files for what i currently have?
[07:58] <ikonia> so it doesn't flood the screen
[07:58] <KlrSpz> markelhas: in your /etc/network/interfaces file
[07:58] <PriceChild> markelhas, system > admin > network
[07:58] <ikonia> boojah ebcause you've changed glibc, I'd strongly suggest a re-install
[07:58] <KlrSpz> markelhas: but there's also a network manager udner settings that'd help better
[07:58] <PriceChild> markelhas, that's a nice gui to change /etc/network/interfaces
[07:59] <Matol> can anyone help me installing my audio card drivers? i have a big problem please help
[07:59] <Matol> can anyone help me installing my audio card drivers? i have a big problem please help
[07:59] <markelhas> KlrSpz, PriceChild i wan't that no pass is aked when login in for wirelless
[07:59] <ikonia> !repeat >Matol
[07:59] <boojah> ikonia: why is that nessesary??
[07:59] <ikonia> boojah libc is the core of the OS along with a few others, you've changed the whole core your OS was built around
[07:59] <KlrSpz> markelhas: look in the properties, there's a place to put it
[07:59] <KevinOman> gay
[07:59] <boojah> ikonia: surely there must be a way to get it back
[08:00] <ikonia> boojah there is, but with respect the level your using it at, it is probably better and easier to re-install
[08:00] <markelhas> KlrSpz, can't find it :|
[08:00] <KlrSpz> anyone use screenlets? for some reason the manager is now telling me I don't have rsvg, but I don't know what I need exactly
[08:00] <ikonia> KlrSpz how are you installing screenlets ?
[08:00] <MOTZ> only 700mb 64bit had 4gb ?
[08:00] <MOTZ> ist that normal ?
[08:01] <ikonia> MOTZ 64bit is not 4gb - you must have downloaded a dvd image
[08:01] <KlrSpz> ikonia: from http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=1985
[08:01] <KlrSpz> err no ignore that
[08:01] <ikonia> KlrSpz you may want to see if they are in the ubuntu repos
[08:01] <KlrSpz> from deb http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu
[08:01] <KlrSpz> ikonia: they aren't :S
[08:01] <galaxy_> amias, NVidia nForce2 with CMI9761A+ at 0xe4001000, irq 1 driver download plz
[08:01] <ikonia> KlrSpz use dpkg -l to check the dependencies
[08:01] <ikonia> oops
[08:01] <ikonia> not -l
[08:01] <boojah> ikonia: why can't i just remove the libc6 i have then build all the packages back?
[08:01] <ikonia> dpkg -i I think
[08:01] <KlrSpz> ikonia: thign is, I was running it before I rebooted
[08:01] <markelhas> KlrSpz, can't be found it u have roaming mode enable?
[08:01] <ikonia> boojah becuase when you remove libc - your system will stop working, so you can't remove it
[08:02] <Ornate1> hey
[08:02] <markelhas> KlrSpz, can it be found if  u have roaming mode enable?
[08:02] <KlrSpz> roaming mode?
[08:02] <boojah> ikonia: is there no way to replace (or downgrade) the libc6 to 2.5?
[08:02] <ikonia> boojah as I said, its a lot easier and better for you to re-install

[08:03] <ikonia> boojah back up your stuff and re-install

[08:05] <Filthpig> Hi, I'm considering buying a new PSU for my computer (the one I have is quite noisy). I have a AMD Athlon 2500+, 1,5 gb ram, nvidia gf 7600 gs and two hdds with 160 gb and 250 gb respectively. I also have seven or so usb ports. How many watts should I go for with a new psu? I think my current is 500W but that might be a bit much... Although a new psu will have to support a dual/quad core cpu and gf 8800 or better gfx card for further (And fu
[08:05] <Filthpig> ture ;) upgrades... Any ideas?
[08:05] <Rhoruns> how do i end a process
[08:05] <ikonia> boojah yes, I know how to fix that.  However I would re-install as its easier
[08:05] <markelhas> PriceChild, but i can't find nothing to store pass.
[08:05] <boojah> ikonia, what i i say i want to try that first
[08:05] <PriceChild> markelhas, do you see your wireless adapter listed there?
[08:06] <ikonia> boojah I'm sorry but I don't think its the best thing for you to do, as you are not at a level where it will make sense in my opinion
[08:06] <PriceChild> markelhas, click it, then select properties or edit on the right hand side
[08:06] <Rhoruns> no one knows how to end a process? :(
[08:06] <ikonia> boojah backup to dvd/cd's and re-install
[08:06] <bastid_raZor> Filthpig 650w atleast..
[08:06] <ikonia> Rhoruns whats the proble m?
[08:06] <ikonia> problem ?
[08:06] <Rhoruns> i just want to end a process! so i canr estart it
[08:06] <PriceChild> markelhas, you can then turn "roaming mode" off, and enter the details
[08:06] <ikonia> Rhoruns man kill
[08:06] <Rhoruns> kk
[08:06] <boojah> anyone else wanna help me with my libc6 problem?
[08:07] <markelhas> PriceChild, can't do that cause, my password type isn't there
[08:07] <ikonia> boojah I promise it is MUCH easier and safer to backup your data to cd's / dvd's and re-install
[08:07] <ikonia> boojah I'm not fobbing you off, its just a LOT of effort
[08:07] <markelhas> PriceChild, only wep there :(
[08:07] <PriceChild> markelhas, and yours is wpa?
[08:07] <danielronin> Hi all, i need some partition help...badly! i wiped a ntfs partition on the left side of all my nix partitions, and now i can't boot linux :(
[08:07] <markelhas> PriceChild, yaps
[08:07] <ikonia> danielronin what is the error
[08:07] <ompaul> Rhoruns, there are other routes, if a service in the form of a server sudo /etc/init.d/service-name stop and then the same again with start
[08:07] <ikonia> you've probably removd grub
[08:07] <Filthpig> bastid_raZor:  wouldn't that make the psu use more power than neccesary?
[08:07] <ikonia> ompaul: hi
[08:08] <boojah> ikonia: i know you think im a complete noob, but i know a few things, and i dont care if its hard.. this is how i've learned what i know until this point, ok?

[08:08] <Rhoruns> ok ompaul, then what are the other routes..?
[08:08] <cox377> does anyone know a command that would restart all usb devices?
[08:08] <danielronin> it wasn't after installing windows, the mahcine already had windows and kubuntu on it
[08:08] <ikonia> boojah you need to know more than a "few things" everyone has to start somewheree but messing with glibc is not an appropriate place to learn
[08:08] <bastid_raZor> Filthpig if you're upgrading at a later date you'll need the extra watts in the 'future'
[08:08] <PriceChild> markelhas, If wpa isn't listed there then I can't help sorry.
[08:08] <danielronin> i was trying to make space for a small testing distro
[08:09] <boojah> ikonia: lol.. you reeeally want me to format don't you :P
[08:09] <ikonia> boojah its the right thing to do
[08:09] <ikonia> danielronin what is the exact error
[08:09] <evri2> how can i use my gpu at full speed?
[08:09] <ikonia> evri2: how do you know its not

[08:09] <evri2> ikonia: simple nvclock -s
[08:10] <evri2> ikonia: it runs at 100mhz
[08:10] <boojah> ikonia: well, you might be right, in witch case i will soon learn and follow your advice, but i want to try learning something new first
[08:10] <evri2> ikonia: it should run at 450 :p
[08:10] <ikonia> danielronin ok - so it sounds like your boot partition has moved/change
[08:10] <ompaul> Rhoruns, if you own it, kill -9 process-id (ps -auwx | less if you want to see them all) and there are many other levels of kill you may want to "man kill" for it and sudo kill -9 pid if you don't own it be careful
[08:10] <ikonia> boojah great, learn something new, but not glibc
[08:10] <danielronin> yeah i think that's what happened
[08:10] <ikonia> evri2 nvidia tools ?

[08:14] <PriceChild> Moniker42, you did the second command... choosing any defaults?
[08:14] <Moniker42> PriceChild, i think so
[08:14] <left1> So how do I run the new audacity? using the audacity command asks me if i want to install it
[08:14] <PriceChild> Moniker42, do the following
[08:14] <ikonia> left1 ahhh it will be your path
[08:14] <Filthpig> Moniker42: how's it going?
[08:14] <ikonia> left1 where did you install the new version ?
[08:14] <PriceChild> Moniker42, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -pcritical
[08:14] <PriceChild> Moniker42, then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restsart
[08:15] <danielronin> ikonia: I've already tried a grub-install, and it's pointing the wrong way since there's one less partition on the table (??)
[08:15] <ikonia> danielronin the guide doesn't tell you to do grub-install
[08:15] <maedhros> RedRose: RedRose By manually, I mean going to System Config -> advanced -> Disks (or something like that)
[08:15] <left1> i'm assuming the desktop folder where it was extracted
[08:15] <ikonia> left1 nope - why did you build a new version
[08:15] <MOTZ> need to reformat ?
[08:15] <Moniker42> Filthpig, i'll get back to you on that once i have a GUI :)
[08:15] <left1> I just did the compile command and the install and made sure i had all the dependecies and devlopers installed
[08:15] <UrbenLegend> left1 there's a package on getdeb.net if that helps
[08:15] <Moniker42> PriceChild, okay thanks i'm going to boot the recovery console now and try that
[08:15] <left1> because the 1.2.6 doesn't let me do batch files
[08:15] <left1> I want to make a batch file for my podcasts
[08:15] <boojah> ikonia: isn't libc6 2.6 in gutsy? will upgrading to the development gutsy version fix it?
[08:16] <praet> is there a way to dynamically size ram usage in virtualbox?
[08:16] <ikonia> boojah no
[08:16] <maedhros> RedRose: Because there's a known bug with the GUI Installer CD and manual partitioning.
[08:16] <Moniker42> PriceChild, always very helpful! =)
[08:16] <snocone> ok I need some help
[08:16] <UrbenLegend> @left1: on getdeb.net its version 1.3.3 beta
[08:16] <ikonia> left1 you shouldn't compile stuff if you don't understand it, for future reference
[08:16] <PriceChild> boojah, please don't upgrade to the development version of ubuntu!
[08:16] <snocone> I have practically no experience
[08:16] <zegevrijtt> hi. how can is deny a program from having access to the network ? i cant find a application level firewall for linux..  ??????
[08:16] <boojah> why?
[08:16] <PriceChild> scofield, ask your question :)
[08:16] <ikonia> snocone you have to ask a question
[08:16] <ikonia> zegevrijtt iptables is your friend
[08:16] <PriceChild> boojah, because it is alpha and not finished.
[08:16] <RedRose> maedhros, Ok, Also, how can i run a chkdsk or do some type of fault check on my sda?
[08:16] <snocone> I know I'm getting to that :)
[08:16] <evri2> How can stop my gpu from lowering its GPU speed?
[08:16] <PriceChild> evri2, what drivers are you using?
[08:16] <ikonia> evri2 does it not scale up when busy
[08:17] <crazysoilder> sory! where is epiphany extensions ???
[08:17] <ikonia> evri2 eg: idle at a lower speed
[08:17] <snocone> I am on a powerpc laptop and can't seem to get internet working in any way
[08:17] <evri2> ikonia: sometimes not
[08:17] <boojah> PriceChild so?!?! its not long until it comes, i can live with the bugs
[08:17] <ingsoc> snocone: i've been there
[08:17] <PriceChild> snocone, how do you connect to the internet.
[08:17] <ds500ss> /close
[08:17] <snocone> dsl + airport
[08:17] <evri2> ikonia: is there a way or not?
[08:17] <PriceChild> boojah, #ubuntu+1
[08:17] <ikonia> boojah development versions are not really for new users
[08:17] <zegevrijtt> if there is not an application filer firewall .. linux is a leak test hell
[08:17] <ds500ss> close
[08:17] <PriceChild> evri2, what drivers are you using?
[08:17] <Kworth> If i want to run a script every day can i just put it into the folder /etc/cron.daily
[08:17] <Kworth> ?
[08:17] <evri2> PriceChild: nvidia-glx-new
[08:17] <zegevrijtt> t thee must be something ?
[08:17] <PriceChild> Kworth, crontab -e
[08:17] <ikonia> evri2 not that I'm aware of, I'm not into "clocking" tools
[08:18] <boojah> ikonia: i didn't start using linux yesterday
[08:18] <godstorm> how do i use my sound card to talk on TS and Listen at the Same Time?
[08:18] <BFC> hi. does anybody know of a programme similar to skype, but which is open-source and allows phone calls to real phones
[08:18] <ikonia> boojah a new user is someone with experience, your still very new
[08:18] <PriceChild> BFC, ekiga
[08:18] <Kworth> PriceChild, thats not my crontab file
[08:18] <KlrSpz> what's the package that has RSVG module in it for python?
[08:18] <ikonia> BFC I think you can use astrix also as a client and a server
[08:18] <PriceChild> Kworth, pardon?
[08:18] <boojah> ikonia: and i really dont care... my question is: does ubuntu gutsy use libc6 2.6.1-2? or is it 2.6.1-1?
[08:18] <snocone> I tried to install bcm43xx but i don't have internet, so I can't install it
[08:19] <PriceChild> !gutsy | boojah
[08:19] <ubotu> boojah: 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
[08:19] <ikonia> boojah thats not relevvent to your situation
[08:19] <Kworth> PriceChild, My Crontabs are written into some other file if i do sudo cron -e its just empty
[08:19] <evri2> PriceChild: no solution i think?
[08:19] <ikonia> snocone you don't need the internet to install it
[08:19] <PriceChild> Kworth, i didn't say sudo
[08:19] <PriceChild> Kworth, i said crontab -e
[08:19] <Kworth> PriceChild, same there without sudo
[08:19] <PriceChild> evri2, I'm not convinced there's a problem
[08:19] <UrbenLegend> @snocone: you need to get fwcutter and use the driver from the windows cd
[08:19] <PriceChild> Kworth, and that's a your user's crontab...
[08:20] <azi_> hm.. is there any way for me to be able to install opera?
[08:20] <PriceChild> s/a //
[08:20] <azi_> (with synaptics)
[08:20] <PriceChild> !opera | azi_
[08:20] <ubotu> azi_: opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" (dapper only) is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[08:20] <ikonia> azi_: look in synaptic and see if you see it
[08:20] <Kworth> well nevermind
[08:20] <snocone> so I need to dl the whole windows iso?
[08:20] <evri2> PriceChild: k here is the problem
[08:20] <UrbenLegend> @no the driver that came with your network card
[08:20] <UrbenLegend> @snocone i meant
[08:20] <zegevrijtt> opere is lighter weight on resources and yet has more options by default than firefox
[08:20] <Kworth> !cron
[08:20] <Kworth> !crontab
[08:20] <zegevrijtt> opera
[08:20] <evri2> PriceChild: I use compiz-fusion.Sometimes my gpu doesn't scale up and effect will be laggy
[08:21] <ubotu> cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[08:21] <evri2> effects*
[08:21] <danielronin> ikonia: i just ran the root/setup/intall commands, should this make me able to boot the HDD?
[08:21] <snocone> but, uh.. I'm confused
[08:21] <BFC> does Ekiga allow me to phone "real" phones?
[08:21] <godstorm> ok how do i use my Sound Card To Talk on TS and Listen At the Same Time?
[08:21] <ikonia> danielronin if you have selected the right options yes
[08:21] <Kworth> which man do I have to open to find out about the syntax of the cronfile?
[08:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about crontab - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:21] <BFC> like "skype out"?
[08:21] <PriceChild> BFC, I think so yes.
[08:21] <snocone> fwcutter is what exactly
[08:21] <UrbenLegend> @scocone ubuntu provides bcm43xx on the cd, but it doesn't provide bcm43xx-fwcutter which you need to extract the firmware files from the windows driver
[08:21] <ikonia> BFC you need a provider
[08:21] <left1> oh nice
[08:22] <godstorm> ?
[08:22] <UrbenLegend> @scocone bcm43xx requires these firmware files to use the network card
[08:22] <left1> so i just right click the .deb and it installs?
[08:22] <azi_> ikonia: , PriceChild thanks
[08:22] <stefan__> hey
[08:22] <ikonia> azi_: welcome
[08:22] <snocone> where do I get those firmware files
[08:22] <UrbenLegend> @left1: if you're talking about audacity then yes
[08:22] <godstorm> can you help?
[08:22] <godstorm> me
[08:22] <PriceChild> BFC, iirc its also slightly cheaper
[08:22] <ikonia> godstorm if you ask a question, maybe
[08:23] <godstorm> i did
[08:23] <ikonia> godstorm: sorry I missed it
[08:23] <UrbenLegend> @snocone you have to get bcm43xx-fwcutter first online and then use it to get firmware files from the windows driver that came with your network card
[08:23] <danielronin> ikonia: thanks for pointing me in the right direction
[08:23] <left1> thanks!
[08:23] <godstorm> how do i use my sound card to talk on TS and Listen At the Same time?
[08:23] <ikonia> danielronin no problem
[08:23] <godstorm> like
[08:23] <godstorm> my MP3
[08:23] <UrbenLegend> @scocone i know it sounds like a circle, need internet to get internet
[08:23] <ikonia> godstorm setup the mic
[08:23] <ikonia> and it will work
[08:23] <snocone> where can I get bcm43xx-fwcutter?
[08:23] <UrbenLegend> @scocone ubuntu repo website online
[08:24] <godstorm> my Team Speak is set up and it works tho
[08:24] <godstorm> but i mean by to listen to my Mp3 music
[08:24] <godstorm> and talk on TS
[08:24] <ikonia> godstorm open a music player
[08:24] <godstorm> at the same time
[08:24] <godstorm> k
[08:24] <snocone> I'm confused, though. why do you keep referring to the 'windows driver'?
[08:24] <ikonia> godstorm thats fine
[08:25] <UrbenLegend> @scocone its the driver that came with your network card, they're usually for windows
[08:25] <stefan__> i am using gnome and its filemanager. i wonder if (and how) it is possible to change the menu, that appears when right clicking on a .rar-file. i see an "extract here"-item, which extracts the clicked on rar file. i would like to have an additional menu-item which extracts, and then - if successful - deletes the rar-file and leaves only the extracted files
[08:25] <stefan__> is that possible?
[08:25] <godstorm> ok it's open but i get noo sound out of it tho only TS
[08:25] <UrbenLegend> @snocone do you have the original cd that came with your network card?
[08:25] <snocone> it's airport, so it's not windows
[08:25] <snocone> and yes
[08:25] <BFC> pricechold: what is iirc
[08:25] <BFC> ?
[08:25] <Kworth> do I write into my crontab as coomand "/home/markus/cronjobs/script.sh" or "sh /home/markus/cronjobs/script.sh"?
[08:26] <UrbenLegend> @snocone oops sorry, i am just so used to broadcom and windows
[08:26] <genii> Kworth: The first one
[08:26] <snocone> BFC: if I recall correctly
[08:26] <boojah> ikonia: i fixed it :P
[08:26] <UrbenLegend> @snocone okay find the driver .sys and use bcm43xx-fwcutter to cut it and install it
[08:26] <godstorm> mm
[08:26] <Moniker42> PriceChild: that didn't work =(
[08:27] <Moniker42> PriceChild: i'm on IRSSI from the recovery console now
[08:27] <snocone> can explain that in the simplest terms possible?
[08:27] <snocone> *you
[08:27] <PriceChild> Moniker42, what have you broken dude? :)
[08:27] <boojah> ikonia: wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6_2.6.1-1ubuntu3_i386.deb then dpkg -i libc6_2.6.1-1ubuntu3_i386.deb
[08:27] <Moniker42> PriceChild: something important, it would seem
[08:27] <PriceChild> Moniker42, that resets your xorg.conf to default settings just like after an install...
[08:27] <UrbenLegend> @snocone okay try finding a .sys file on that cd
[08:27] <PriceChild> Moniker42, what error is x giving?
[08:27] <Moniker42> PriceChild: if you tell me what to typie i could send you log files and the like? :)
[08:27] <boojah> ikonia: i knew reinstalling wasn't nessesary
[08:28] <snocone> ok just a minute
[08:28] <Moniker42> PriceChild: hang on i'll run it again and tell you word-for-word...
[08:28] <PriceChild> Moniker42, it'll be /var/log/Xorg.0.log or /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old
[08:29] <Moniker42> PriceChild: it tells me... yea. i was just going to say - how do i send you that though?
[08:29] <snocone> UrbenLegend: there's just some install packages
[08:29] <drew2> hello
[08:29] <godstorm> ??
[08:29] <PriceChild> just give me the line with an EE on the left of it
[08:29] <PriceChild> Moniker42, ^
[08:29] <UrbenLegend> @snocone oh dear okay holdon
[08:29] <Moniker42> PriceChild: umm... i can't get another tty at the moment for some reason
[08:29] <PriceChild> Moniker42, btw EE stands for errors, WW stands for warnings... you get the idea :)
[08:29] <nasso> is anyone here hot with mod_perl and apache? :)
[08:29] <drew2> I have a problem with a installing a program, I'm new to ubuntu
[08:29] <UrbenLegend> @snocone in the meantime this might help with familiarizing you with bcm43xx-fwcutter http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174
[08:29] <Moniker42> PriceChild: can i dcc you the whole file from IRSSI? or open the file using IRSSI? seeing as i can't get another tty...
[08:29] <davidthedrake> nasso, Just ask your question and you'll find out ;)
[08:30] <godstorm> ummm
[08:30] <godstorm> can you help
[08:30] <xOjka> lol
[08:30] <xOjka> hi
[08:30] <xOjka> :)
[08:30] <drew2> I need to install ntfsprog and am finding the .configure and make confusing
[08:30] <davidthedrake> xOjka, hello :)
[08:30] <nasso> im trying to install apache::asp. have just installed mod_perl via libapache2-mod-perl2
[08:30] <UrbenLegend> @snocone okay use this file instead
[08:31] <nasso> there is a libapache-asp-perl package in the packagesystem but is that for apache "1"?
[08:31] <drew2> I untarred the files and did the ./configure on it
[08:31] <godstorm> :/
[08:31] <godstorm> brb
[08:31] <drew2> but now i need to "make" it, as the forums say
[08:31] <evri2> guys
[08:31] <UrbenLegend> @snocone then type 'sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/`uname -r` ~(path to whereever you installed the file)/wl_apsta.o'
[08:31] <evri2> what does quiet do in kernel parameters?
[08:32] <Roidal> abend
[08:32] <drew2> I'm confused as how to execute the command
[08:32] <ikonia> boojah well done
[08:32] <snocone> oh man, this could get complicated. see I have to switch partitions to do that. it's on this computer
[08:32] <danielronin> ikonia: no dice =(
[08:32] <boojah> ikonia: why were you so obsessed about me reinstalling the whole thing when you could just replace it with the ubuntu deb?
[08:32] <janolap1> Hi there, I have a problem with my webcam : a labtech webcam pro
[08:32] <BoSJo> Hi all. So i wanna test KompoZer(NVU) HTML editor, it's not in the Add/Remove(All Avaliable), and not in synaptic either. So ill get it from SF.net. But what to get, .gz-.deb-.rpm???
[08:32] <bastid_raZor> drew2 simply type make
[08:32] <godstorm> ok i am back
[08:32] <drew2> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=398122 that is what I'm trying to do
[08:32] <godstorm> is there any one here?
[08:32] <ikonia> boojah its not that simpley, you could still have troubles
[08:32] <danielronin> is there a way to manually edit menu.lst and fix it?
[08:33] <UrbenLegend> @snocone yeah cuz you got to download the files to get internet, lol
[08:33] <ikonia> danielronin are you getting the same error
[08:33] <drew2> what is the syntax?
[08:33] <bastid_raZor> danielronin vi /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:33] <danielronin> yeah error 15: file not found
[08:33] <boojah> ikonia: yea.. some apps might complain, but at least you should have told me to try that first
[08:33] <nasso> does anyone here have a simple perl-script that is can use to test that mod_perl is working? :)
[08:33] <ikonia> boojah as I said, its not that simple
[08:33] <bastid_raZor> drew2 make .. that is all you need. after that finishes : make install
[08:33] <ikonia> danielronin ok - so your problem is not menu.lst
[08:34] <ikonia> danielronin: show me your disk layout in the ubuntu pastebin
[08:34] <boojah> ikonia: dpkg -i isnt that simple? well gtg reinstall my nvidia modules
[08:34] <danielronin> by removing that one partition i think i chnaged the mount #s of every point on the right of it
[08:34] <boojah> bye bye
[08:34] <drew2> It says no targets specified
[08:34] <ikonia> boojah the implications arn't that simpleuy
[08:34] <godstorm> umm
[08:35] <snocone> ok urbenlegend, I lost you
[08:35] <janolap1> The webcam is ok with lsusb and dmesg
[08:35] <BoSJo> What types off packages is used on Ubuntu? .rpm or deb?

[08:36] <Moniker42> PriceChild: fatal server error: no screens found
[08:36] <Moniker42> PriceChild: could this have something to do with switching from an AGP8x card to a PCI-E card without telling ubuntu?
[08:36] <snocone> maybe I should get a wired connection working in ubuntu first, so I don't have to keep switching back and forth between ubuntu and osx
[08:36] <Moniker42> PriceChild: my mobo is one of the rare breed that supports both types...
[08:36] <godstorm> ok, let do this then
[08:36] <UrbenLegend> @snocone yeah that would be a good idea
[08:36] <snocone> assuming that's easier
[08:36] <Kworth22> is there an alternative to nautilus or the file browser in Ubuntu, it is sometimes just really slow?
[08:36] <janolap1> Does anyone can help me with my webcam problem ?
[08:37] <godstorm> oh here is a OP and Knows Wht i need help with

[08:37] <snocone> I tried, but had problems with it as well
[08:37] <godstorm> who*
[08:37] <UrbenLegend> @snocone or you could just download bcm43xx-fwcutter and wl_apsta.so and then transfer those files to ubuntu
[08:37] <godstorm> lol
[08:37] <ikonia> godstorm whats the actual problem
[08:37] <froud> It fails to build the martian_helper

[08:39] <PriceChild> Moniker42, i don't know... :/
[08:39] <fragalot> savetheWorld: no :p
[08:39] <praet> Distro^Junkie: yes just add the repo
[08:39] <PriceChild> Distro^Junkie, read their site
[08:39] <xjkx> There is no #lilo channel, so: On grub i had this error while trying to go to partition hdb2: "error18: selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by bios". The grub is installed in hda, then i want to install lilo to hdb, maybe lilo can handle this, but running /sbin/lilo -M /dev/hdb didnt work. anyone knows?
[08:39] <fragalot> savetheWorld: in defocus it wasn't much fun, so i figured i'd try here.
[08:39] <Distro^Junkie> thanx
[08:39] <snocone> UrbenLegend: could you link me to where I can dl both of those?
[08:39] <ikonia> godstorm make sure both are using alsa
[08:39] <godstorm> it only uses one Sound only not For All
[08:39] <fragalot> savetheWorld: i'd try in #gentoo, but i kinda need that channel ^_^
[08:39] <godstorm> alsa?
[08:39] <Moniker42> PriceChild: how do i switch between channels in IRSSI?
[08:39] <MTecknology> I'm going to a university that doesn't broadcast their SSID. When I go anywhere else that is, I have a flawless time with wireless. They have two sets of SSID's, student1 and student2. What happens is that the network manager never seems to connect to the university wireless so I need to make separate profile for each. Does anybody know any solutions for this? I really want to be able to just use the roaming mode for all of my wireles
[08:39] <MTecknology> s.

[08:41] <MTecknology> steveatlocalhost, will that just work with the network manager, will that replace it, or will I need to configure them to work with each other?

[08:42] <yjwong> thicknsexy, look for "start-stop-daemon"
[08:42] <steveatlocalhost> MTecknology, it will work with it, you connect to something in wifi-radar and net-manager detects it
[08:42] <steveatlocalhost> youknowme have you tried a reinstall?

[08:43] <JuJuBee> I have a routing question (or 2).  I have a network conected to a switch (few computers) and the switch connected to eth0 on a server.  On the server, eth1 connects to my cable modem.  From my computer (not this one) I can ping both interfaces on the server, but cannot get to google,com (by ip or dn).  On the server, I can browse the net.  Any ideas?
[08:43] <thicknsexy> yes yjwong
[08:43] <labmicro4> hi all, i am installing an NIS client using Ubuntu, and this problem happen: YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound
[08:43] <snocone> UrbenLegend: the first link was a 404. and were the second and third the same file?
[08:43] <ikonia> JuJuBee you need to setup ipforwarding and an iptables rule to forward/masqurade packages
[08:43] <UrbenLegend> @snocone the second is bcm43xx-fwcutter the third is the same as the first file
[08:43] <JuJuBee> ikonia : I think I have it set up.
[08:43] <ikonia> labmicro4 ok - your not bound to the domain - have you set the domain name ?
[08:43] <yjwong> thicknsexy, all the scripts that start the programs on startup are stored in /etc/init.d
[08:43] <snocone> ok, I thought so
[08:43] <ikonia> JuJuBee doesn't look like it
[08:44] <danielronin> ikonia: 1 second, i'm at wirk...sorry
[08:44] <Tominator> I've got some problems installing feisty in Virtualbox. It simply crashes... I google for the problem and it said, that it's because of der server kernel... So how can I install feisty server with the normal kernel?
[08:44] <krychek> http://www.openchrome.org/trac/browser/branches/vn896_branch?order=name        can anyone make a deb file out of this repo?
[08:44] <godstorm> .................
[08:44] <ikonia> danielronin not a problem
[08:44] <ikonia> Tominator you don't
[08:44] <thicknsexy> yjwong please come channel jebus
[08:44] <ikonia> it comes with the server kernel
[08:44] <snocone> UrbenLegend: so I should stick those on a cd and do what exactly
[08:44] <labmicro4> ikonia, where i set ? i set the domain in yp.conf
[08:44] <yjwong> thicknsexy, if you want to start a program when you login, use the System -> Preferences -> Sessions instead
[08:44] <slashzul> how do you import a text file in openffice as a spreadsheet ?
[08:44] <ikonia> labmicro4 do "domainname" see if its set
[08:44] <slacksurf> Hello alguem knows with configures the Interrogation in a Lenovo 3000 C200, therefore no layout of keyboard functions
[08:44] <godstorm> ok
[08:44] <ikonia> slacksurf pardon ?
[08:44] <godstorm> brb i will restart this pc
[08:44] <Tominator> ikonia: well probably yes
[08:45] <UrbenLegend> @snocone put them on a flash disk or something and transfer it to your ubuntu partition
[08:45] <godstorm> and then i hope it works
[08:45] <godstorm> tho

[08:45] <JuJuBee> ikonia : any suggestions as to how-to for the iptables commands?
[08:45] <whtvr> hey everybody
[08:45] <ikonia> labmicro4 thats not what I said do
[08:45] <ikonia> labmicro4 I said show me the output of domainname
[08:45] <snocone> UrbenLegend: where should I put them
[08:45] <whtvr> i kinda need some  help
[08:45] <ikonia> JuJuBee what is your rule your using
[08:45] <Blazeix> Is it possible to change the nice priority level of an already running process?
[08:45] <whtvr> it's about wifi....
[08:45] <UrbenLegend> @snocone anywhere on the flash disk it doesn't matter
[08:45] <Parisi> Holly crap!
[08:45] <ikonia> Blazeix man nice
[08:45] <ikonia> yes
[08:45] <labmicro4> labmicro4@labmicro4-desktop:/etc$ domainname
[08:45] <labmicro4> labix.rc.unesp.br
[08:45] <Parisi> New Ipod
[08:46] <ikonia> labmicro4 ok - thats better
[08:46] <JuJuBee> Im somewhat new to iptables, what do you mean?
[08:46] <snocone> no, where on the ubuntu partition
[08:46] <whtvr> i'm havin a hard time connecting to my wireless network
[08:46] <ikonia> is that domain running ok on the nis master ?
[08:46] <Tominator> ikonia: well... perhabs but there is a kernel error... I think I do have a problem...
[08:46] <ikonia> Tominator you can't use the server release
[08:46] <JuJuBee> ilkonia : let me pastebin it...
[08:46] <JuJuBee> brb
[08:46] <UrbenLegend> @snocone just install the bcm43xx-fwcutter deb and unzip the zip file and place that in your home directory
[08:46] <Blazeix> ikonia: I already read the man page for nice, and it says it runs the program as the specified level. The program is already running.
[08:46] <Tominator> ikonia: okay... well that's not that good...
[08:46] <ikonia> Blazeix so you do "nice $level $pid"
[08:47] <Tominator> I guess I have to use debian then
[08:47] <snocone> ok, I'll try. I'll be back

[08:48] <labmicro4> ikonia, the server is in the same network. but someone told me that is necessary to register the client in the server. is it true ?
[08:48] <ikonia> labmicro4 yes totally

[08:48] <labmicro4> ikonia, how to register in the server ?
[08:48] <_Jaak_> is it normal that i have to enter my keyring password everytime network manager tries to connect to my network?
[08:48] <ikonia> labmicro4 I'm a bit rusty but it is a command called "nis_client_setup" or smething like that

[08:49] <private_guy> Hi there guys, i'm having a problem with my boot settings with is messing up Ubuntu, it thinks their is a windows vista which there isn't and i have formatted it.. So whats the solution of removing WIndows Vista from my boot menu because its not on the boot.ini as the new Vista uses BCD something like that, any suggests?
[08:49] <private_guy> *which is
[08:49] <drew2> I'm having the same vista problem
[08:49] <ikonia> private_guy boot.ini - are you using windows ?
[08:50] <private_guy> *Windows XP
[08:50] <ikonia> private_guy boot.ini is nothing to do with ubuntu
[08:50] <snocone> UrbenLegend: wait, that's an intel file
[08:50] <thicknsexy> can some one help me with my sound i have a ultimedia audio controller: Ensoniq ES1370 [AudioPCI] 
[08:50] <thicknsexy>  soundcarfd

[08:50] <private_guy> No, it wont boot anything except windows vista and XP because of it
[08:50] <bsherman> 	private_guy: killdisk floppy will erase the entire hard drive
[08:50] <J_P> hi all
[08:50] <bsherman> is that what you want?
[08:50] <foutrelis> Hello. I noticed that the alt+tab shortcut doesn't work anymore. Where should I go to fix this?
[08:50] <bionoid> Hm my new laptop has 800mhz FSB, does that automatically mean it can handle 800mhz RAM? See, the specs says 667 mhz ram, but it's not obvious whether they mean just the included 2x1GBs or a limitation of the motherboard..
[08:50] <ikonia> private_guy are you using ubuntu ?
[08:50] <ikonia> private_guy have you got grub installed
[08:50] <private_guy> Yep
[08:50] <private_guy> 7 :P
[08:50] <UrbenLegend> @snocone not an intel file, just a windows device driver

[08:50] <ikonia> private_guy so why are you looking at boot.ini ?
[08:50] <UrbenLegend> @snocone thats why you got to use bcm43xx-fwcutter to cut out the firmware files
[08:50] <ikonia> grub controlls your booting
[08:51] <J_P> People, I go to buy a nvidia video card. Could you recomend any good model to works fine in ubuntu... ?
[08:51] <private_guy> Vista doesn't use boot.ini lol
[08:51] <drew2> I resized Vista with GPartEd and installed ubuntu 7.04, now when I try to start vista it says it is missing winload.exe
[08:51] <stefg> bionoid: #hardware
[08:51] <snocone> ok wait
[08:51] <_Jaak_> Blazeix, thanks i will
[08:51] <thicknsexy> J_P no nvidia works with ubuntu without reconfigureing the drivers for them
[08:51] <bsherman> 	/leave/leave
[08:51] <ikonia> private_guy what are you talking about, GRUB is the thing that controls your booting
[08:51] <thicknsexy> Can someone help em with ultimedia audio controller: Ensoniq ES1370 [AudioPCI] 
[08:51] <snocone> explain to me *exactly* what I need to do with these files and how to install them. I'm really confused
[08:52] <UrbenLegend> @snocone did you install bcm43xx-fwcutter yet?
[08:52] <UrbenLegend> @snocone double click on the bcm43xx-fwcutter and install it
[08:52] <snocone> no, I'm still in osx. I can't do anything until I restart, so I want to make sure I do it right
[08:52] <UrbenLegend> @snocone on your ubuntu system of course
[08:53] <thicknsexy> can some one help me with my sound card?
[08:53] <UrbenLegend> @snocone then after installing it go to your console
[08:53] <stefg> !sound | thicknsexy
[08:53] <ubotu> thicknsexy: 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).

[08:54] <drew2> I need to read an NTFS drive in Ubuntu 7.04
[08:54] <J_P> thicknsexy: what video card you recommend ?
[08:54] <drew2> can someone help?
[08:54] <UrbenLegend> @snocone and type 'sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware ~/home/username/bcmwl5.sys'
[08:54] <stefg> drew2: reading is no problem
[08:54] <ikonia> drew2 no problem, just mount it
[08:54] <kousotu> drew: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[08:54] <Blazeix> drew2: I believe the default install of ubuntu can read
[08:54] <thicknsexy> J_p i dont recommend
[08:54] <ikonia> kousotu he doesn't need to do that
[08:54] <Blazeix> drew2: you don't need ntfs-3g for read only
[08:54] <ikonia> drew2 ignore that last command
[08:55] <drew2> for some reason it isn't showing up though as a drive
[08:55] <drew2> It is partitioned on my computer
[08:55] <ikonia> drew2 what disk is it on
[08:55] <ikonia> drew2 eg: /dev/sda
[08:55] <kousotu> ikonia: 3g is for read fuse is for write
[08:55] <drew2> /dev/sda2
[08:55] <ikonia> kousotu no  its not
[08:55] <ikonia> kousotu please don't say thing you don't understand
[08:56] <thicknsexy> J_P i dont know hardware that well i just know when my borther tryed to install ubuntu on his laptop when he booted his screen went black its not hard to fix just do research on them before installing ubuntu on them otherwise you will be stuck with no os
[08:56] <UrbenLegend> @snocone after that the bcm43xx driver should be set up and ready to go
[08:56] <kousotu> ikonia: don't go assuming I don't understad something
[08:56] <ikonia> drew2: sudo mkdir /mnt/ntfs-test; mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/ntfs/test
[08:56] <ikonia> kousotu you don't as you've just said something thats incorrect
[08:56] <snocone> UrbenLegend: thanks. hope it works
[08:56] <siloko> hey dudes does anyone have any experience writing udev rules as I can't seem to get ANY to invoke after a usb hotplug . . .
[08:56] <ikonia> siloko done a few in my time, whats up
[08:57] <kousotu> ikonia: ok, whatever. you think you know it al fine, be my guest
[08:57] <ikonia> drew2 that should also be sudo mount - sorry
[08:57] <stefg> !udev
[08:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about udev - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:57] <ikonia> kousotu ntfs-3g is NOT for read access
[08:57] <siloko> ikonia: well i've written one to run a script when i plug in my usb hd, but it doesn't work and i don't know why
[08:57] <siloko> ikonia: i'll post the rule . . . hold on
[08:57] <zwik> does anyone know where ubuntu installs de SUN JDK 1.6 ?
[08:57] <ikonia> siloko do you want to pop it in the pastebin and I'll take a look
[08:57] <UrbenLegend> @zwik /usr/java i think
[08:58] <kousotu> ikonia: then tell me, why would it refuse to mount wthout 3g then?
[08:58] <Blazeix> zwik: /usr/lib/jvm, I think
[08:58] <ikonia> kousotu user error ?
[08:58] <ticked> argh i am gonna have to get rid of the amd64 bit version and go to the I386
[08:58] <ward_> a friend installed the CLI version trough the alternative xubuntu cd, then he isntalled xserver-xorg, xfonts-base and fluxbox
[08:58] <ward_> but now no menuitems work, what does he need to do to get a menu with working buttons?
[08:58] <kousotu> you think everything's my error
[08:58] <Blazeix> kousotu: you don't need ntfs-3g or fuse for reading ntfs, the linux kernel has an integrated driver for reading.
[08:58] <drew2> It still does not show up as a readable drive
[08:58] <ikonia> kousotu most of the time it is
[08:58] <ikonia> drew2 hang on
[08:58] <ikonia> drew2 so did those commands work ok ?
[08:58] <drew2> no
[08:58] <ikonia> drew2 what error did you get
[08:58] <siloko> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36472/
[08:59] <ikonia> siloko give me a few minutes, just with someone else at the moment
[08:59] <drew2> First command worked fine
[08:59] <danielronin> sorry ikonia: i unplugged eth0 for a sec and it wouldn't come back up
[08:59] <ikonia> siloko I'll probably ask for tha url again in a minute
[08:59] <danielronin> had to restart
[08:59] <ikonia> siloko ok, thats gret
[08:59] <ikonia> oops
[08:59] <drew2> the second one then says only root can do that, then I tacked on sudo
[08:59] <danielronin> now what did you want me to put in pastebin?
[08:59] <ikonia> drew2 sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/ntfs_test
[08:59] <ikonia> danielronin: your disk layout
[08:59] <ikonia> drew2 sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/ntfs_test
[08:59] <danielronin> fstab?
[08:59] <ikonia> sorry my typo

[09:00] <nasso> i have just installed mod_perl. does anyone know how i can test if its working?
[09:00] <kousotu> zwik: it should add jdk as well
[09:00] <ikonia> nasso use something that wants it
[09:00] <Blazeix> zwik: java-6-sun is a symbolic link to java-6-sun-1.6.0.00
[09:00] <nasso> i dont know how to ^_^
[09:00] <_Jaak_> my keyring creates a default keyring called default instead of my user name?
[09:00] <ikonia> kousotu depends if you installed the jdk - thats not the default
[09:00] <zwik> okay, thanks a bunch
[09:00] <nasso> im just installing it because i want apache::asp
[09:01] <UrbenLegend> @zwik the package should be called sun-java6-jdk and my bad it is /usr/lib/jvm
[09:01] <Adnan_> hi guys i need some help with grub someone willing to help? i already know the basics but i think i am not adding the correct info to boot into my other distro ... cheers
[09:01] <drew2>  It says it is already mounted as /windows
[09:01] <ikonia> Adnan_ be with you in a minute, just got a few others on the list first
[09:01] <ikonia> drew2 great, so its already mounted
[09:01] <zwik> UrbenLegend: ty :)
[09:01] <kousotu> ikonia: I''m not dealing with you. you can't admit that I just might know something thatyou don't
[09:01] <UrbenLegend> @zwik np
[09:01] <ikonia> drew2 so if you view /windows in naultalius
[09:01] <drew2> but I cannot see it
[09:01] <yjwong> drew2, then you can access your Windows partition through /windows, i guess
[09:01] <Adnan_> ikonia thanks a lot
[09:02] <ikonia> kousotu I don't  know what your talking about
[09:02] <danielronin> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36475/
[09:02] <drew2> I'm confused
[09:02] <ikonia> kousotu your just making incorrect comments and I'm explaining its wrong
[09:02] <kousotu> I installed java on gutsy, JUST JAVA, and jdk came right besie it
[09:02] <left1> does ubuntu have any widgets like Mac OS 10 does?
[09:02] <ikonia> drew2 so your disk is already mounted the file system /windows
[09:02] <drew2> nevermind
[09:02] <drew2> I found it
[09:02] <ikonia> danielronin be with you in a minute or two
[09:02] <drew2> great
[09:02] <drew2> thanks
[09:02] <ikonia> drew2 fantastic
[09:02] <kousotu> I did it through Firefox, so I know exactly what was chosen
[09:02] <danielronin> np, just say when
[09:02] <UrbenLegend> @left1 you mean desktop widgets?
[09:02] <ikonia> kousotu gusty is not 7.04 stable
[09:02] <JuJuBee> ikonia : the iptables script is one I found and modified http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36474/
[09:02] <UrbenLegend> @left1 try gdesklets
[09:02] <Blazeix> left1: you might look into the package gdesklets
[09:03] <ikonia> kousotu and as you can see drew2 did not need ntfs-3g to mount his disk
[09:03] <left1> i think i have it installed already but i dunno how to use it
[09:03] <kousotu> ikonia: this is true, but the packages are merely dev versions for the most part
[09:03] <ikonia> kousotu in gusty yes - as its in development
[09:03] <ikonia> kousotu not fesity
[09:03] <ikonia> I've forgot who was next
[09:04] <kousotu> ikonia: I would hav gona ahead and installed 3g, then not writen
[09:04] <ikonia> who else was waiting for help, apologies
[09:04] <soothsayer> Is there a way to browse or list packages in a repository without adding it to my sources.list?
[09:04] <JuJuBee> I am if you dont mind.
[09:04] <ikonia> kousotu and thats why you don't understand what your doing and shouldn't give out incorrect advice

[09:04] <dyrne> soothsayer: there is always packages.ubuntu.com
[09:04] <ikonia> JuJuBee danielronin was first - I'll get to you
[09:04] <yjwong> soothsayer, you can go to the URL of the repository
[09:04] <ikonia> danielronin go on, show me the link
[09:04] <kousotu> ikonia: also, Sun microsystems controls Java, not Can. (w/e the ubuntu dev compay is)
[09:04] <JuJuBee> K
[09:04] <JuJuBee> np
[09:04] <danielronin> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36475/
[09:04] <drew2> Now that Ubuntu and Vista are installed, Vista says winload.exe is missing, anyone had any experience with this and I really need this fixed as it is a work computer
[09:04] <soothsayer> yjwong: Not if it decides to show something different to web browsers
[09:05] <UrbenLegend> @kousotu its canonical
[09:05] <ikonia> kousotu please stop saying things you don't understand, ubuntu packages sun java
[09:05] <remi___> hi. How to install bzflag on ubuntu ?
[09:05] <soothsayer> yjwong: I guess I could mess around with user-agent...
[09:05] <left1> Is there a place I can download other desklets?
[09:05] <UrbenLegend> @remi_ have you tried installing it through add/remove or synaptic?
[09:05] <kousotu> "[14:04]  <ikonia> kousotu and thats why you don't understand what your doing and shouldn't give out incorrect advice" it's not "incorrect, it differentthanwhat YOU would do
[09:05] <remi___> it seems that bzflag is *not* in ubuntu repositories
[09:05] <yjwong> soothsayer, yeah, certain sites refuse to show the index >_>
[09:05] <ikonia> danielronin: which one of those partitions has /boot on
[09:05] <kousotu> it would have the EXACT same outcome
[09:05] <Blazeix> remi__: it is in the repos: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/games/bzflag
[09:05] <ikonia> kousotu no - its incorrect advice
[09:06] <ikonia> kousotu you don't NEED ntfs-3g to mount a read only NTFS disck
[09:06] <kousotu> in your eyes only
[09:06] <soothsayer> yjwong: So is there a way without changing user-agent?
[09:06] <yjwong> >_> will both of you stop for a moment, ikonia and kousotu
[09:06] <dgjones> can somebody help with an nvidia problem, after a hard drive failure, i've done a reinstall and am trying to setup the nvidia driver without using envy etc, i've installed nvidia-glx-legacy, got everything working, glxgears works fine, but when I start xchat, the system freezes and I have to powerdown using the off switch, if i use the "nv" driver, the problem doesn't happen, any suggestions?
[09:06] <godstorm> ok
[09:06] <UrbenLegend> @left1 http://www.gdesklets.de/
[09:06] <godstorm> i am piss off
[09:06] <remi___> Blazeix, any ideas, why it's not in feisty ""original"" repositories ?
[09:06] <boojah> ikonia: the nvidia modules seemed to work with the libc6 2.6.1.. if i get any problems i think i can just do the dpkg -i command on the original libc6 deb file
[09:06] <godstorm> how do i get this to work
[09:06] <yjwong> soothsayer, not sure. The user-agent is validated by the server, so I guess there's no choice.
[09:06] <ikonia> boojah depends whats linked against it
[09:06] <ikonia> boojah: but yes, possibly
[09:06] <shrimants> i want to dual boot linux  and xp. i want to be able to have My Documents and /home on one partition so that my files are always consistent between OS's. how should i partition my 160 gb hd?
[09:06] <UrbenLegend> @remi_ enable the universe repo
[09:06] <Blazeix> remi__: I'm not sure, by 'original' do you mean not the 'universe'
[09:07] <danielronin> ikonia: what's the command to check the contents?
[09:07] <Meroigo_> i get a "Starting HTTP Cache Cleaner..:" in the bottom panel from time to time running KDE applications like AmaroK in Gnome. How can i fix it?
[09:07] <danielronin> being that it's not a dir
[09:07] <shrimants> actually
[09:07] <shrimants> nvm
[09:07] <Born_In_Xixax> hi, i would like to allow a regular user to execute a script that has some root-only commands (copying files in /etc for example)...how can I accomplish this?
[09:07] <ikonia> danielronin: ahh this will be a drag for you, you need to "mount" the disks on a temporary file system and look at whats in them
[09:07] <ikonia> danielronin why do you have so many partitions
[09:07] <danielronin> so i need to mkdir and mount to them
[09:07] <danielronin> ?
[09:07] <soothsayer> yjwong: Yes, obviously whatever I used would have to have an appropriate user-agent, I was hoping there was some console program that would handle all the mess for me
[09:07] <godstorm> ikonia:
[09:07] <godstorm> ?
[09:07] <ikonia> danielronin yes, just somewhere like /mnt
[09:07] <ikonia> godstorm what ?
[09:07] <yjwong> shrimants, you could partition as per normal, and create a symbolic link for My Documents....
[09:08] <UrbenLegend> @remi_ it should be in the repos otherwise just download from the ubuntu packages site
[09:08] <kousotu> "[14:06]  <ikonia> kousotu you don't NEED ntfs-3g to mount a read only NTFS disk" Where did I say it was NEEDED?
[09:08] <ikonia> danielronin unmount them when you are done
[09:08] <godstorm> nvm you are helping some one
[09:08] <godstorm> i will look for some one esle
[09:08] <godstorm> then
[09:08] <ikonia> kousotu just drop it and think about what advice your offering to people
[09:08] <godstorm> um
[09:08] <yjwong> soothsayer, I'm not sure of any such console programs. I create custom PHP scripts to fake User-agents :)
[09:08] <ikonia> godstorm there is a queue, your welcome to join
[09:08] <remi___> Blazeix, aptitude search bzflag returns *nothing*
[09:08] <ese5> does anyone know how to add a chinese keybord layout? I see practically every other country in the world in the list, but for some reason China/Taiwan is missing
[09:08] <godstorm> wht is it
[09:08] <soothsayer> yjwong: Do you know what the user-agent of apt-get is?
[09:08] <ikonia> danielronin: that will take you a hile so I'll look at JuJuBee's issue while your checking
[09:09] <ikonia> JuJuBee: post the script please
[09:09] <ikonia> or the url to it
[09:09] <JuJuBee> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36474/
[09:09] <UrbenLegend> @remi_ it should be in the universe repo see if you have it disabled or something
[09:09] <kousotu> ikonia: you think about it. justbecause it's different done NOT make it wrong
[09:09] <UrbenLegend> @remi_ or just download it from here http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=bzflag&searchon=names&subword=1&version=feisty&release=all
[09:09] <yjwong> soothsayer, no idea. You (or maybe me) could try using Wireshark. Anyway I'm keen to explore too :P
[09:09] <ikonia> kousotu I'm not going into it, but giving out incorrect and potentially dangerous advice is not a good idea
[09:09] <remi___> UrbenLegend, no, i haven't disabled it. It's a fresh festy install. I'm o.O
[09:09] <kousotu> ikonia: again, it's not WRONG ADVICE
[09:10] <ikonia> kousotu its potentially dangeours advice
[09:10] <ikonia> based on a lack of understanding
[09:10] <JuJuBee> ikonia : from outside, I can hit my webserver and I can ssh to the server then to a device on my network.  From inside, I can ping/http the webserver.  I can ping hte external NIC interface, but cannot ping/http anything outside.
[09:10] <kousotu> ikonia: only if used incorectly. AKA USER ERROR
[09:10] <ikonia> JuJuBee ok - I think I see a few problems, just working it through
[09:10] <UrbenLegend> @remi_ try synaptic instead of aptitude, i am not sure if this matters but try it anyway, cuz its def in my repos
[09:10] <JuJuBee> Ok, like what?
[09:11] <remi___> :( very weird ...
[09:11] <ikonia> JuJuBee: join me in #ubuntu-offtopic as this isn't really an ubuntu problem
[09:11] <kousotu> ikonia: you can code in a thousanddifferent ways, it will have the same end result
[09:11] <JuJuBee> K
[09:11] <danielronin> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36477/
[09:11] <godstorm> umm
[09:11] <UrbenLegend> @remi_ if you can't see it easiest way is just to download them from the link i gave you and install it by hand
[09:11] <wib> hi. i updated the linux-headers. now the soundcarddrivers don't work anymore. i tried almost everything exept compilin and installing alsadrivers... i reinstalled all alsa-related packages though...
[09:11] <godstorm> ikonia:  wht the channel name bro
[09:11] <danielronin> it's /dev/sda5 judging by the contents
[09:12] <KlrSpz> so what's the vnc of choice for sharing sessions?
[09:12] <KlrSpz> !vnc
[09:12] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[09:12] <ikonia> danielronin I'll get back in a mo
[09:12] <danielronin> ikonia: np
[09:12] <KlrSpz> tightvnc-server will not work as it only works with a fresh session
[09:12] <dgjones> can somebody help with an nvidia problem, after a hard drive failure, i've done a reinstall and am trying to setup the nvidia driver without using envy etc, i've installed nvidia-glx-legacy, got everything working, glxgears works fine, but when I start xchat, the system freezes and I have to powerdown using the off switch, if i use the "nv" driver, the problem doesn't happen, any suggestions?
[09:12] <KlrSpz> (ie, I can't resume a live session0
[09:13] <praet> remi___: Section: universe/games
[09:13] <ompaul> dgjones, check you have the right driver, it may not be the legacy
[09:13] <yjwong> soothsayer, got the user-agent
[09:13] <praet> remi___: try apt-cache search bzflag
[09:13] <remi___> UrbenLegend, i don't like the idea of downloading a .deb as it *should* work. Do i have to add something on the sources.list UrbenLegend ?
[09:13] <soothsayer> yjwong: Beat me
[09:13] <remi___> praet, are you prae ?
[09:13] <soothsayer> yjwong: Still looking at ngrep man page :)
[09:13] <praet> remi___: nope.
[09:13] <Jowi> Born_In_Xixax, the user need to run the script with "sudo". then in /etc/sudoers add a line that say: username ALL=NOPASSWD: /path/to/your/script   (example, I want a user to be able to "halt" (and this is the only admin command he is allowed to use)  the machine without requireing a password: adminuser123 ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/halt )
[09:13] <kousotu> ikonia: I dare you to tell me that statement is wrong
[09:13] <yjwong> soothsayer, it is "Ubuntu APT-HTTP/1.3 (0.6.46.6ubuntu10)"
[09:13] <yjwong> :D
[09:14] <soothsayer> yjwong: Thanks
[09:14] <tarvid> how does one get abiword to print directly to a printer from the command line?
[09:14] <KevinOman> what package do I need to build debs?
[09:14] <yjwong> ngrep? Isn't that grep -n?
[09:14] <praet> remi___: if you just enabled universe make sure to apt-get update
[09:14] <UrbenLegend> @remi__ well its a default feisty install so the source should be there. What about from add remove in your main menu
[09:14] <ikonia> kousotu this is offtopic nonsense that I'm not going to discuss
[09:14] <Jowi> Born_In_Xixax, so either use "sudo" inside the script or make the script executable by root only.
[09:15] <Born_In_Xixax> Jowi, sounds like exactly what I need many thanks :)
[09:15] <praet> remi___: also, check system > administration > software sources
[09:15] <kousotu> ikonia: bull, it's righton targt, you're just too stupid, bullheaded, ignorant (pick one) to admit it
[09:15] <Blazeix> kousotu: just drop it, ikonia had the best answer, since it didn't require installing something that the user didn't have to use.
[09:15] <labmicro4> ikonia, now i run rpcinfo -u labix ypserv
[09:15] <labmicro4>  and the error stop.
[09:15] <wib> is there something like envy but for sound card drivers?
[09:15] <dgjones> ompaul, legacy is supposed to be the right driver, the card is an geforce 2 go - quite an old one
[09:15] <kousotu> Blazeix: but he did not have the ONLY answer
[09:15] <kousotu> Blazeix: hence my point
[09:15] <labmicro4> ikonia, i try to run yptest
[09:16] <ikonia> labmicro4 NICE find
[09:16] <remi___> praet, as i already said, apt* search bzflag returns nothing. It's a fresh feisty install, and no i didn't enabled no uni/multi/whatever verse.
[09:16] <ikonia> thats the stuff
[09:16] <Sembiance> I'd like to install Ubuntu on a MacPro. Does 7.0.4 support this?
[09:16] <ompaul> kousotu, bad point, there is a safe way to do it, yours was not it, here you are helping new users
[09:16] <Jowi> Born_In_Xixax, be abit careful though. make the script read-only.
[09:16] <siloko> flame wars in a help channel are really dull . . . sort it out guys :)
[09:16] <kousotu> Blazeix: I stated what I wold do, he stated what he would do
[09:16] <UrbenLegend> @remi8__ you didn't enable universe? i thought you said you did
[09:16] <Blazeix> No, another answer would be to install ntfs-3g, then reinstall it 5 times. It would technically have worked, but it is still wrong
[09:16] <KevinOman> do apt-cache search bzflag*
[09:16] <labmicro4> and the test stop in the second stage: Test 2: ypbind
[09:16] <labmicro4> Can't communicate with ypbind
[09:16] <kboite> Hello, I've deleted accidentally with maj+suppr some files, does anybody know a free ext3 data recovering solution?
[09:17] <Aminux> hi,is it possible to read/write on windows from Ubuntu?
[09:17] <kousotu> Blazeix: no,if it works, it's not wrong
[09:17] <ompaul> kousotu, drop it
[09:17] <Jowi> Born_In_Xixax, correction: read and execute only by root
[09:17] <kboite> sorry maj+del (suppr is the french word)
[09:17] <wib> http://lwn.net/Articles/248227/ AMD to open up graphics specs
[09:17] <praet> remi___: check system > administration > software sources     make sure universe is enabled
[09:18] <praet> remi___: the default install may have universe disabled by default
[09:18] <ikonia> danielronin: ok - I'm back with you now
[09:18] <ikonia> danielronin: apologies for the delay, juggling a bit much
[09:18] <labmicro4> ikonia, an question, wih the rpcinfo, is the client registered in the server, or not yet ?
[09:18] <tarvid> gee anybody ever get abiword to do a mail merge?
[09:18] <KlrSpz> so what's the vnc of choice for sharing sessions? tightvnc-server won't work as it requires it's own xsession, I want to resume a live session (for sharing, etc)
[09:18] <danielronin> ikonia: np, i appreciate the help. btw did you get the paste of the /dev/sd5 contents
[09:18] <ikonia> labmicro4 rpcinfo means the server responded to it, doesn't mean its registered as I remember
[09:18] <Jowi> Born_In_Xixax, for more advance setup see "man sudoers"
[09:18] <remi___> praet, i haven't the pc on my hands. But i'll check tomorrow. Weird that universe isn't enabled by default on feisty ...
[09:19] <ikonia> danielronin: to be certain, go into where you mounted /dev/sda5 and do "ls -la ./boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:19] <labmicro4> ikonia, well, the answer was good :)
[09:19] <godstorm> umm
[09:19] <daedra> test
[09:19] <daedra> :)
[09:19] <ikonia> labmicro4 I'm rusty on legacy nis, so don't take what I say as fact
[09:19] <ikonia> just from memory
[09:19] <godstorm> ikonia:
[09:19] <godstorm> wht the channel bro
[09:19] <praet> remi___: make sure it is enabled, then apt-get update to pull the new availible packages, then apt-get install bzflag is all yours :)
[09:20] <ikonia> godstorm what channel ?
[09:20] <godstorm> to get help
[09:20] <ikonia> here
[09:20] <labmicro4> ikonia, ok, but you are helping me a lot !!!!
[09:20] <remi___> bzflag, my preeeeciiiiiouuus ;)
[09:20] <godstorm> on the one i need
[09:20] <SlimySS> Hi, Can someone please tell me how to regenerate ubuntu after i've removed a harddisk on which ubuntu is installed
[09:20] <remi___> praet, thanks for your help
[09:20] <praet> remi___: Its worth the effort to get it from packages rather than a deb file
[09:20] <ikonia> labmicro4 if you can wait a few hours (big ask I know) I can sort you out properly when I get home to a nis box
[09:20] <ikonia> godstorm this is ubuntu support
[09:20] <SlimySS> whenever i try booting from grub, it says disk not found
[09:20] <godstorm> ok
[09:20] <godstorm> well
[09:20] <godstorm> umm
[09:20] <UrbenLegend> @praet aren't packages and deb files the same thing?
[09:20] <remi___> praet, course, yep, 8 years debian user :)
[09:20] <SlimySS> but i've checked the devices.map and it seems to be well in order
[09:20] <ikonia> SlimySS is the ubuntu disk still in your system
[09:20] <godstorm> the alsa is set up
[09:21] <danielronin> " to be certain, go into where you mounted /dev/sda5 and do "ls -la ./boot/grub/menu.lst"
[09:21] <Adnan_> ikonia when you're free just message me with my name ok ? thanks a lot much appreciated
[09:21] <danielronin> is that supposed to have the . ?
[09:21] <ikonia> Adnan_ keep reminding me
[09:21] <ikonia> danielronin yup
[09:21] <Adnan_> ikonia ok
[09:21] <ikonia> or just do "ls -la boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:21] <ikonia> "
[09:21] <SlimySS> ikonia: i can get it in there. right now I am using gentoo.livecd and am in chroot environment (ubuntu /)
[09:21] <ikonia> SlimySS if you don't have the disk in your system - your grub install will not work
[09:21] <danielronin> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5067 2007-09-03 00:30 ./boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:21] <danielronin> ok we're good
[09:22] <ikonia> danielronin mega
[09:22] <praet> UrbenLegend: yes i meant to use a package manager to install
[09:22] <ikonia> danielronin: now comes a slightly tricky part
[09:22] <Keule|On> hi there... i installed anything - and now my usb devices wont work
[09:22] <ikonia> danielronin do you remember doing the "root(hd0)" stuff before
[09:22] <Keule|On> maybe it was the tv-card setup
[09:22] <danielronin> from the grub prompt?
[09:22] <Keule|On> could anyone help me?
[09:22] <recover> I'm using a microSD card in an usb card reader. I just put some files on it and then tried to unmount it, but it wouldn't. Then I tried restarting X with ctrl+alt+backspace and then unmounted the card. I know you're supposed to unmount it before pulling out the card to prevent data loss. So my question is: Did restarting X somehow prevent the files being written, or is the data flushing managed elsewhere?
[09:22] <ikonia> danielronin yup
[09:23] <danielronin> yes but i don't remember the output
[09:23] <SlimySS> ikonia: ok, can you give me a few hints on where to go from there- i.e. once i've got the feisty live.cd inside the CDROM?
[09:23] <Born_In_Xixax> Jowi, working great thanks.  Do you happen to know the command to halt and power down the pc from the command line?  Is it just halt?
[09:23] <ikonia> SlimySS you just need to re-install
[09:23] <ikonia> danielronin thats fine
[09:23] <ikonia> danielronin can you make some notes as this screen will scroll
[09:24] <Keule|On> how can i reactivate my usb-ports???
[09:24] <danielronin> absolutely
[09:24] <ikonia> danielronin ok
[09:24] <ikonia> danielronin sudo grub
[09:24] <ikonia> danielronin puts you ito the grub shell
[09:24] <spanks> /channellist
[09:24] <Jowi> Born_In_Xixax, "halt", "shutdown" (example "shutdown -h now"), "reboot".
[09:24] <SlimySS> reinstall? but why'd I want to do that? isnt there an easier way? i've just installed a lot of software :(
[09:24] <ikonia> danielronin then you want the root - which according to your disk layout should be /dev/sda5 so "root (hd0,4)"
[09:24] <danielronin> (well i sudo -s, so justgrub then ;) ?)
[09:24] <ikonia> danielronin with me so far
[09:24] <Blazeix> SlimySS: do you have a hard drive in the system?
[09:25] <ikonia> SlimySS you've told me the ubuntu hard disk is not in th drive
[09:25] <ikonia> is not in the system
[09:25] <godstorm> who here is
[09:25] <godstorm> know about
[09:25] <Jowi> Born_In_Xixax, if you use /etc/sudoers for the commands be sure to put the full path to the command in there. "which halt" will tell you the path to "halt"
[09:25] <godstorm> Sound.s
[09:25] <Jakyle> hi, I am a freshmen in college, majoring in Computer Science, and my advisor told me to to start with Ubuntu, but I am having trouble installing it
[09:25] <Keule|On> hello - how can i reactivate my usb ports
[09:25] <nandemonai> I'm wondering it anyone has had usb issues with Asus P5B? My devices offline whenever they feel like it and it seems pretty universal, ipod, flashdrives and hdds over usb. Chipset is USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family).
[09:25] <ikonia> danielronin: you with me so far ?
[09:26] <danielronin> yup
[09:26] <ikonia> ok -
[09:26] <Blazeix> Jakyle: what part are you having trouble with?
[09:26] <Born_In_Xixax> Jowi, actually it worked as just 'sudo halt'
[09:26] <Born_In_Xixax> i'm good
[09:26] <yjwong> Jakyle, just state your exact problem :)
[09:26] <ikonia> danielronin: so that "should" be ok, now you want to apply that to the boot sector of your boot disk so - "setup (hd0)"
[09:26] <SlimySS> ok, lemme clear things up, i've got the harddisk with ubuntu / on one harddisk. now the harddisk (primary master) on whose MBR ubuntu installed grub is not there.
[09:26] <Jakyle> lol, well when I start installing it, it get a message saying hd01 is blocked
[09:26] <hiker1352> How do I boot from a live cd to just a shell?
[09:26] <Keule|On> does anyone read my messages?
[09:26] <ompaul> godstorm, you can ask in #alsa but before you do make sure you read the topic for the channel and do all it says
[09:26] <ikonia> SlimySS ahh so you just need to re-apply grub
[09:26] <godstorm> ok
[09:27] <ikonia> !grub >SlimySS
[09:27] <SlimySS> it still means that if I am able to point grub to the harddisk I have / (ubuntu) on, then It'll see the installation, wont it.
[09:27] <spanks> whats the preferred irc client for most people
[09:27] <hiker1352> irssi
[09:27] <ikonia> SlimySS sorry, I totally missunderstood
[09:27] <Vlet> spanks: irssi
[09:27] <spanks> thanks
[09:27] <nandemonai> Keule|On, Someone will help you if they can, you just gotta be patient.
[09:27] <age6racer> hi all, I havve t
[09:27] <ompaul> spanks, lots of different ones - xchat irssi konversation depending on the person
[09:27] <SlimySS> heh. ikonia alrighty. now we're getting somewhere. and really, my fault describing the problem. thanks.
[09:27] <spanks> thanks =)
[09:27] <Blazeix> SlimySS: try looking here - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24113
[09:27] <spanks> because gaim is terrible
[09:27] <age6racer> whoops. I'm having trouble with rt2500 drivers and ndiswrapper
[09:27] <shifty-> anyone know of a vnc viewer for linux?
[09:27] <hiker1352> Can you boot from a live cd to just a shell?
[09:27] <age6racer> can anyone help me?
[09:28] <nandemonai> age6racer, Hold up I may have a link for you..
[09:28] <ikonia> danielronin: did you get all that ?
[09:28] <tapoxi> Hello, I installed Ubuntu Restricted Extras, but I can't play back AAC files?
[09:28] <nandemonai> age6racer, Have you tried the serial monkeys driver?
[09:28] <yjwong> Jakyle, I'm not too sure of this problem - possibly also specify which CD you are using? (desktop or alternate)
[09:28] <danielronin> but so far the only command i've entered at "grub" is "root (hd,4), right?
[09:28] <Jakyle> desktop
[09:28] <ompaul> shifty-, click on applications - internet and then choose terminal server client
[09:28] <UrbenLegend> @tapoxi did you install all the gstreamer plugins?
[09:28] <Born_In_Xixax> shifty, there is one installed by default: 'vncviewer ip_address:0'
[09:28] <tapoxi> shifty-: Applications>Internet>Terminal Server Client
[09:28] <yjwong> shifty-, Ubuntu comes with a VNC viewer
[09:28] <shifty-> thanks
[09:29] <Jakyle> I burned the image using the suggested software on the site
[09:29] <tapoxi> UrbenLegend: Just Ubuntu Restricted Extras, what else should I install?
[09:29] <age6racer> ndsiwrapper -l gives the following: driver present   device (1814:0201) present (alternative driver; rt2500)
[09:29] <genii> (hd,4) would not be correct
[09:29] <yjwong> Jakyle, is that after or before the menu comes out?
[09:29] <hiker1352> Can ubuntu live cds boot to just a shell? or is there adiff distro that will?
[09:29] <mcsd> yjwong: I gave a VNC question if you can help...is anyone familiar with a video capture program to record desktop...I grabbed Xvidcap but it seems to run poorly with an X600 and P4 3.00 Ghz...is it better to record through VNC
[09:29] <ikonia> danielronin: yup so grub to get you into the shell, then root (hd0,4)
[09:29] <ikonia> then enter
[09:29] <ikonia> then setup (hd0)
[09:29] <ikonia> then enter
[09:29] <ikonia> then exit
[09:29] <mcsd> Gave = have
[09:29] <ikonia> then reboot and lets see what you get
[09:29] <nandemonai> age6racer, I'm not sure about the ndis way but there are real drivers being worked on: http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page
[09:29] <ompaul> danielronin, and remove the liveCD
[09:29] <ikonia> ompaul nice spot !
[09:29] <Jakyle> the menu comes up just fine, and it gives me the options to open ubunuto in safe mode, to verify if it is safe, and of course, the top option, to install
[09:30] <yjwong> mcsd, not too sure, but I'm using XVidcap too
[09:30] <ompaul> ikonia, well I am not being busy :)
[09:30] <Jakyle> I install it, ubunto starts to load, then it says that hd01 is blocked or something
[09:30] <yjwong> performance is better for one small window, but if the whole desktop were to be captured >_>
[09:30] <Jakyle> if you would like, I can try to install it again and write down the exact message I am getting
[09:30] <Vlet> tapoxi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/AAC
[09:30] <UrbenLegend> @tapoxi all the gstreamer plugins
[09:30] <UrbenLegend> @tapoxi including the bad and ugly ones
[09:30] <yjwong> Jakyle, in that case you should copy the exact message, or use the Alternate CD
[09:30] <jetscreamer> i've found passing xvrefresh and xhrefresh and xmodule on the boot: options line (F6) helps the installer
[09:30] <age6racer> nandemonai: I know, I had those (half working) but I can only connect to certain networks.
[09:30] <mcsd> yjwong: is there a way to just record the desktop instead of drawing an area...I ask because it doesn't record my skybox
[09:31] <Jakyle> okay, ill brb in five minutes...
[09:31] <age6racer> I was hoping that ndiswrapper would fix this
[09:31] <yjwong> note that i'm going to sleep soon, Jakyle
[09:31] <yjwong> :P
[09:31] <danielronin> ikonia: that sounds like what i did earlier when i logged off, and i got the same error from GRUB
[09:31] <ikonia> danielronin well, lets see,
[09:31] <Jakyle> you have time for five minutes?
[09:31] <nandemonai> age6racer, Ahh okies sorry can't help you then :/ I had issues too and am using a different chipset now.
[09:31] <danielronin> ikonia: will do
[09:31] <tapoxi> Vlet: thank you very much!
[09:31] <UrbenLegend> @snocone did it work?
[09:31] <yjwong> Jakyle, it's OK
[09:31] <Jakyle> brb
[09:31] <snocone> no, it said the package was for i386. how do I install it?
[09:31] <age6racer> anybody else here have experience with ndiswrapper??
[09:32] <yjwong> mcsd: have you tried recordmydesktop?
[09:32] <ikonia> danielronin the problem you've got is you've changed the partition table, so I'm not sure how rub will react to that, you could need root (hd0,4) OR maybe root (hd0,5) IF it still thinks there is the old partition
[09:32] <UrbenLegend> @snocone oh you're not i386?
[09:32] <ikonia> danielronin: if you see what I mean
[09:32] <maedhros> age6racer: Only bad experiences... :)
[09:32] <UrbenLegend> @snocone which processor do you have?
[09:32] <snocone> no, powerpc. :o
[09:32] <UrbenLegend> @snocone oh

[09:32] <godstorm> no one there to help
[09:32] <Filthpig> why doesn't anyone make a gnome-version of k3b? It's the best burning tool ever...
[09:32] <ikonia> godstorm easy on the phrase, its not regarded as nice language
[09:32] <maedhros> age6racer: What hardware do you have?
[09:33] <snocone> but you said it would work anyway?
[09:33] <godstorm> oh
[09:33] <godstorm> lol

[09:34] <hiker1352> is it possible to boot just a shell from the live cd?
[09:34] <godstorm> ok bro
[09:34] <danielronin> ikonia: i get what you're saying, i think grub still thinks the old partition is there
[09:34] <godstorm> i like Liunxs alot
[09:34] <godstorm> tho
[09:34] <godstorm> ok

[09:35] <jamb> ikonia: thx...
[09:35] <ikonia> ok
[09:35] <yjwong> ubuntu09, why don't you install libdvdread from the repositories?
[09:35] <MOTZ> how to install broadcom 4311 already installed fw update
[09:35] <maedhros> age6racer: run lspci, see if you can figure out what wireless chip you got
[09:35] <ubuntu09> it isnt in there
[09:36] <UrbenLegend> @MOTZ did you extract firmware files already with fwcutter?
[09:36] <danielronin> ikonia: whe i try to run setup after root (hd0,5) i get an eror 15
[09:36] <genii> riaal: http://ktorrent.org/index.php?page=downloads has latest. you could compile from the tarball if you are determined for the latest one
[09:36] <MOTZ> yes
[09:36] <danielronin> so it's prolly at 4 then...
[09:36] <MOTZ> but reinstalled ubuntu
[09:36] <ikonia> danielronin when you run (hd0,4) does it seem happy ?
[09:36] <MOTZ> switched from 64 to 32  bit
[09:36] <danielronin> yes, but how do exit grub gracefully?
[09:36] <MOTZ> wb ;)
[09:36] <riaal> genii, cheers
[09:37] <UrbenLegend> @MOTZ okay when you reinstall it deletes the firmware files from /lib/firmware
[09:37] <yjwong> ubuntu09, it is in Universe: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/libs/libdvdread3
[09:37] <MOTZ> ohh
[09:37] <age6racer> maedhros: RalLink RT2500 802.11g Cardbus/mini-PCI (rev 01))
[09:37] <MOTZ> so i must begin at step 1 ;)
[09:37] <danielronin> setup succeeded at with root set at 4
[09:37] <MOTZ> could you send me the link once again ?
[09:37] <UrbenLegend> @MOTZ yeah cuz you did a fresh install
[09:37] <ubuntu09> yjwong - ok ill try thanks
[09:37] <MOTZ> ok
[09:37] <ikonia> danielronin that looks good then
[09:38] <danielronin> ikonia: how do i get back to normal shell prompt again?
[09:38] <MOTZ> thx dude

[09:38] <ikonia> danielronin not a problem
[09:38] <spanks> anyone have a second to explain irssi installation, i dont understand the install instructions
[09:39] <Blazeix> spanks, irssi is in the repositories, I believe
[09:39] <age6racer> maedhros: Hold on a second! it seems to work (I just connected to my network with it. The problem seems to be in network-manager-gnome or nm-applet.
[09:39] <Adnan_> ikonia you free yet? lol sorry to keep asking
[09:39] <ubuntu09> yjwong - it says its libdvdread is already installed but "drip"program says it isnt compiled and that libdvdcss isnt installed but it is
[09:40] <boojah> does anyone have experience with dynamips? i get this sometimes: Floating point exception (core dumped)
[09:40] <tyoc> Ho I can burn a CD from LiveCD if I only have 1 device a DVDBurner?
[09:40] <age6racer> From the the from the system tray icon I only have the choice of manually configured network. No list of AP's etc
[09:40] <lxuser> is there a way i can manually edit the sessions without using the graphical sessions tool?
[09:40] <yjwong> ubuntu09, are you trying to compile "drip" from source?
[09:41] <maedhros> age6racer: RT wireless controllers are typically a problem :( Mine worked nice with one of the default wrappers, but no WPA possible...
[09:41] <ubuntu09> i guess
[09:41] <yjwong> "drip" can be found in the Ubuntu repositories as well
[09:41] <maedhros> age6racer: You know the SSID of your network?
[09:41] <ubuntu09> yes i installed drip
[09:41] <yjwong> then it said you did  not have libdvdcss?
[09:41] <yjwong> uh
[09:41] <ubuntu09> yes
[09:41] <yjwong> oh
[09:41] <age6racer> yeah, and I dont need WPA
[09:41] <yjwong> libdvdcss may be illegal in some countries
[09:41] <lxuser> is there a way i can manually edit the sessions without using the graphical sessions tool?
[09:42] <age6racer> but I do need to be able to roam (so nm-applet is very useful to me)
[09:42] <yjwong> that's why it is not included
[09:42] <ubuntu09> the synaptic says it is installed tho
[09:42] <maedhros> age6racer: Okay, then I don't know, really.
[09:43] <ubuntu09> also the ./configure command has never worked for me. i dont know why
[09:43] <tyoc> ./configure will fail for a lot of things...
[09:43] <tyoc> specially because there are no -dev files installed...
[09:43] <lxuser> Im trying to find a hypothetical file that contains what I launch each session. I dont wan to use the graphical tool to modify it, does anyone know if this file exists, and if so, where it is?
[09:43] <tyoc> normally required for compile some things taht are based on some libraries
[09:43] <yjwong> ubuntu09, refer to the "Installing libdvdcss2" section in this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[09:44] <DrSlony> Help, Im running Ubuntu Ultimate 1.4 from Virtualbox in WindowsXP. How do I set up my internet connection? When not running in an emulator I use eth0
[09:44] <TataraKutere> hey babies
[09:44] <Jakyle> back, so I let it set longer, and I had two errow messages, and by the end of all this, the main problem my computer could not load the graphic interface
[09:44] <yjwong> I think that would help a lot :)
[09:44] <MOTZ> he said that i already installed fw
[09:44] <Adnan_> ikonia you there?
[09:44] <ubuntu09> ok
[09:44] <tyoc> ubuntu09: you can see the log of configure...
[09:44] <tyoc> I dont remembner the name...
[09:44] <tyoc> normally configure says why it has failed...
[09:44] <yjwong> tyoc, it is config.log i guess :)
[09:44] <tyoc> and you can see in the log... or cache IIRC
[09:44] <TataraKutere> i need have rights to write and delete on a ext3 partition which i created by gparted livecd
[09:44] <snocone> UrbenLegend:  bcm43xx-fwcutter is trying to access boredklink.googlepages..etc..
[09:45] <lxuser> is there a way to get firestarter to load on start? it seems because it requires root it wont work
[09:45] <homanj> i am having trouble with sound. It was working for a long time. Is it possible that the update i did yesterday caused the problem in sound? ie i am getting no sound.
[09:45] <tyoc> at the end of the file normally you will find what has tried to execute configure...
[09:45] <TataraKutere> who could give a had
[09:45] <TataraKutere> :D
[09:45] <TataraKutere> genii, don't run..:)
[09:45] <TataraKutere> this is new
[09:45] <TataraKutere> :)
[09:45] <Jakyle> [196.534.298]  Buffer I/O error on device fd01, logical block 0
[09:45] <MOTZ> :-D
[09:45] <maedhros> age6racer: Try to read up a little here, if you haven't already: http://www.flamingspork.com/blog/2005/01/14/rt2500-wireless-pci-card-on-ubuntu/
[09:45] <yjwong> IMHO, you rarely need to touch configure scripts on Ubuntu, given the size of the repos
[09:45] <TataraKutere> ok, i'll make myself another coffee too
[09:46] <UrbenLegend> @snocone yeah during install it tries to get the firmware files but it should fail and skip on
[09:46] <UrbenLegend> @snocone that's what happened to me
[09:46] <Jakyle> [234.560037]  BUffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0
[09:46] <lxuser> is there a way to get firestarter to load on start? it seems because it requires root it wont work without me manually loading it after.
[09:46] <Jakyle> those are my error messages
[09:46] <snocone> UrbenLegend: so what's the other file for again? it's what it was trying to get, right?
[09:46] <ubuntu09> root@ubuntu-laptop:/home/ubuntu/Desktop# ./configure libdvdread-0.9.7.tar.gz
[09:46] <ubuntu09> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[09:46] <UrbenLegend> @snocone yes
[09:47] <UrbenLegend> @snocone unzip that file and install it manually with bcm43xx-fwcutter
[09:47] <TataraKutere> hey people, i need help...:(
[09:47] <ubuntu09> sorry forget last post
[09:47] <Blazeix> lxuser: this article has some tips for firewall & root password - http://www.ubuntugeek.com/firestarter-firewall-for-your-ubuntu-desktop.html
[09:47] <yjwong> Jakyle, it is a confirmed bug. Refer: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/97306
[09:47] <ikonia> ubuntu09 is configure in the same dir as you ?
[09:47] <snocone> UrbenLegend: how do I install it manually with bcm43xx-fwcutter?
[09:47] <mariqn> Hi all.I have a problem with Desktop Effects.(The effect for the cube).I have 4 workplaces,but when i gone to left (2nd workspace) the cube effect doesn't work :( Where can be the problem.? I'm using Ubuntu 7.04.
[09:47] <lxuser> thanks blazeix. that will help
[09:47] <Jakyle> thank you :)
[09:47] <ubuntu09> ikonia i dont understad
[09:48] <ikonia> ubuntu09 is the file command "file" configure in your current working directyl
[09:48] <UrbenLegend> @snocone 'sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware ~/Desktop/bcmwl5.sys''
[09:48] <danielronin> ikonia: no dice :(
[09:48] <MOTZ> he said erroe 404 when installing fw cutter
[09:48] <Blazeix> lxuser: here is a tutorial from the ubuntu forums, its a little more recent
[09:48] <Blazeix> lxuser: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1102721&posted=1
[09:48] <snocone> ah right, I even copied that down
[09:48] <UrbenLegend> @snocone replace /desktop/ with the current path where you unzipped it
[09:48] <ubuntu09> no
[09:48] <ikonia> danielronin one moment
[09:48] <maedhros> age6racer: And here also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/RalinkRT2500
[09:48] <snocone> well this was a useless restart :o
[09:49] <f00fat> ubuntu09: decompress libdvdread-0.9.7.tar.gz with tar xzf libdvdread-0.9.7.tar.gz and after that cd libdvdread-0.9.7 and ther you type ./configure && make && sudo make install
[09:50] <yjwong> ubuntu09, have you read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[09:50] <pbn> Hello, with the Kubuntu 6.06 LTS default install, is there a firewall ? Or do I need a firewall ? Or perhaps do I not need a firewall because by default no daemons are listening to the Internet ?
[09:50] <PriceChild> !firewall | pbn
[09:50] <ubotu> pbn: 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).
[09:50] <Jakyle> okay, so I have to make sure my floppy drive is disabled if it does not work, and it should pick it up fine right?
[09:50] <yjwong> "If you are using Ubuntu 7.04 or later: Install the libdvdcss2 package after adding the unsupported third-party repository Medibuntu."
[09:50] <amias> pbn: firestarter is really good
[09:51] <MOTZ> why haave i error 404 when try installig fw cutter
[09:51] <ubuntu09> thanks foofat
[09:51] <Blazeix> pbn: since you use kubuntu though you might want to use GuardDog instead
[09:51] <Jakyle> if I have a different error, ill brb then
[09:51] <Jakyle> thank you yjwong
[09:52] <pbn> Blazeix: yeah but, I'm a geek, so I can directly write iptables rules :) ... In fact I already have the iptables rules written :)
[09:52] <dgjones> ompaul, if you're still around, restricted drivers didn't help, but installing nvidia-glx instead of nvidia-glx-legacy has worked, thanks for the suggestion
[09:52] <UrbenLegend> @MOTZ cuz its trying to get the firmware files from online
[09:52] <Blazeix> pbn: cool
[09:52] <UrbenLegend> @MOTZ it will fail and then proceed with install
[09:52] <danielronin> ikonia: is there a way to manually point menu.ls to the right /dev ?
[09:52] <pbn> Blazeix: the question was actually .. well... I kinda "head" that by default, Ubuntu has no ports open to the Internet, so you don't need a firewall ....
[09:52] <pbn> "heard" *
[09:52] <UrbenLegend> @MOTZ then later just use fwcutter on your driver files
[09:52] <ompaul> dgjones, well that tool should have done it for you out of the box, next install trust it first :)
[09:53] <Blazeix> Right. Ubuntu has a policy that it ships with no open ports
[09:53] <MOTZ> ok where the next steps ?
[09:54] <amias> MOTZ: if you are seeing that instead of a webpage 404 means the server could not find the requested information , do an apt-get update and apt-get upgrade to see if there is a new version with a corrected url
[09:54] <pbn> Blazeix: so ... no iptables needed ? :)
[09:54] <Adnan_> ikonia me next :P lol
[09:54] <UrbenLegend> @MOTZ i just told you, use bcm43xx-fwcutter to cut the driver files that came with your disk.
[09:54] <dgjones> ompaul,  to be honest, i didn't think to try it, i just used synaptic to install legacy thinking it was the correct driver, ah well, you live and learn :)
[09:54] <amias> pbn: iptables is part of the kernel , you already have it
[09:54] <MOTZ> ok
[09:54] <UrbenLegend> @amias the install was just trying to connect to a firmware file online, except MOTZ doesn't have his internet working yet :)
[09:55] <crocd> anyone have any advice on recovering any files that have disappeared from a partition?
[09:55] <Blazeix> pbn: I'm not familiar with the inner workings, so I can't really say one way or the other. I wouldn't bother removing it though, since its som small
[09:55] <amias> UrbenLegend, a server answered it with a 404 , so unless he has some crazy proxy he's online
[09:56] <wib> why is it that copy and paste of text doesn't work when you close the window you were copying from?
[09:56] <sqnl> alguem aqui fala portugues?

[09:57] <pbn> amias: lemme rephrase the question, do I need to filter ports with iptables on a default install of ubuntu 6.06 LTS ?
[09:57] <sqnl> smoke weed with friends

[09:58] <sqnl> Blazeix, yes! thanks man
[09:58] <Jack_Sparrow> pbn: If you are concerned about security of open ports..no.. You can verify this at grc.com using shields-up scanner
[09:58] <Blazeix> sqnl: no problem
[09:58] <amias> pbn: probably not unless you've seen people attack you , but it is a good idea to learn iptables (gets you $$$) and home is a great place to find out what happens with different options
[09:58] <dfletcher> sqnl, I only smoke with enemies :P
[09:59] <sqnl> 12 peoples, haha.ok ok
[09:59] <sqnl> i need learning how speak english

[10:02] <cjae_> there used to be a radio button so it didn't used same optical to read as to burn
[10:02] <wib> so, again, copy and paste doesn't work properly? or is expireing a feature?
[10:03] <amias> wib, do you have gpm installed ?
[10:03] <Marfi> has anyone run into a problem with firefox being buggy lately?
[10:03] <wib> amias: checking...
[10:03] <wib> amias: no. what is it, anyway?
[10:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Marfi: SOmeone said people running flash needed to increase their cache
[10:04] <Jakyle> I810: No matching device section for instance [busID PCI: 0 : 2 : 0]  found
[10:04] <Jakyle> No Device detected
[10:04] <Marfi> Jack_Sparrow, how do i go about doing that?
[10:04] <Jakyle> this is for my graphics
[10:04] <Jakyle> I cannot see the graphics interface,a nd it warns me
[10:04] <amias> wib: linux clipboard program , does the 'select to copy , click to paste' stuff
[10:04] <ni1s> what's the name of the package that detects needed gstreamer codecs?
[10:04] <danielronin> ikonia: what was the command to see all the mount points?
[10:05] <blinker> hey folks, I need help manually recovering some data off one of my drives >_<
[10:05] <wib> amias: but it works /sometimes/, so, isn't there a bug?
[10:05] <macd> danielronin, 'df'
[10:05] <sqnl> amias: and you?
[10:05] <ikonia> danielronin: mount
[10:05] <wib> does gnome control copy and paste?
[10:05] <sqnl> from... ?
[10:05] <Jakyle> can anyone help me with my problem maybe...?
[10:05] <genii> Jakyle: It cannot find your video card in the physical location it expects to find it
[10:05] <UrbenLegend> @blinker is the parition still intact?
[10:06] <amias> ni1s,  you could do apt-cache search gstreamer to see what packages there are with gstreamer in the name , you might get lucky
[10:06] <Jakyle> so, I have to move my video card.../??? is there no way to bybass this?
[10:06] <danielronin> ikonia: i'm sory i meant that i needed to see the partition table
[10:06] <blinker> yeah, I can still access most of whats on it, but there are bad sectors eating directories and files
[10:06] <Jowi> Jakyle, which video card do you have?
[10:06] <Marfi> Jack_Sparrow, how do i update the cache for firefox?
[10:06] <mariqn> Where can i fine video drivers (ATI Radeon 9550) for Ubuntu?
[10:06] <amias> wib, use Ctrl+C/V/X instead
[10:06] <blinker> it forces fsck on boot and fails, telling me to run manually
[10:06] <Jakyle> ATI Radeon PCI (not express mind you) 9250
[10:06] <genii> Jakyle: I would suggest instead to run   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:06] <sqnl> amias, and you? United Kingdom ??
[10:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Marfi: Sorry I had to take a call... I do work occasionally
[10:06] <danielronin> i'm on live cd, so mount only shows the current fs's
[10:06] <Sumsaren> can i somehow delete my windows partition, and join it with my linux partition without losing data on the linux partition? I want to get rid of windows.
[10:06] <Jowi> Jakyle, so why are you using the i810 driver?
[10:06] <marti149> is there a way to list fullpaths using ls -la ? or something like it?
[10:06] <amias> sqnl: yup . bath
[10:06] <wib> amias: that's what i'm doing. you think installing this gmp would help?
[10:07] <pat__> francais
[10:07] <Marfi> Jack_Sparrow, its fine. =)
[10:07] <sqnl> amias: Crowell ??
[10:07] <UrbenLegend> @blinker bad sectors? you should run something like spin rite, i am not sure if fsck will do the job although someone may correct me
[10:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Marfi: I dont do flash I was just relaying what I had heard in channel
[10:07] <sqnl> :)
[10:07] <Marfi> Jack_Sparrow, aight, ty.
[10:07] <amias> wib, as long as you install gpm not gmp
[10:07] <Marfi> my firefox has been a bit buggy. does anyone know about how to up the cache for it?
[10:07] <Jakyle> so I have my pci card in the wrong pci slot?
[10:07] <blinker> UrbenLegend: well, "error reading block" to be more accurate
[10:07] <Jowi> Jakyle, do you have more than one video card in that machine?
[10:08] <qebab> !paste
[10:08] <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)
[10:08] <Jakyle> onboard
[10:08] <Jakyle> other then that, just the card
[10:08] <wib> amias: whats gmp now...
[10:08] <Adnan_> hi guys i need some help with grub someone willing to help? i already know the basics but i think i am not adding the correct info to boot into my other distro ... cheers
[10:08] <Jakyle> but I disabled the onboard a while back
[10:08] <obf213> mang
[10:08] <UrbenLegend> @marfi preferences->advanced->network
[10:08] <f00fat> Sumsaren: try gparted => http://gparted.sourceforge.net
[10:08] <Jowi> Jakyle, and is that onboard card an intel chip?
[10:08] <amias> Marfi, type about:config in the location bar or have a look at Edit->Preferences
[10:08] <Jakyle> yes it is
[10:08] <amias> wib, dunno , you mentioned it
[10:08] <Jakyle> im using a dell deminsion E310
[10:08] <wib> amias: alright thanks
[10:09] <qebab> Could anyone take a look at this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36482/ and try to explain what went wrong?
[10:09] <UrbenLegend> @blinker: sorry i don't have much experience recovering drives, usually i just run spin rite if there's bad sectors or something
[10:09] <qebab> Totem does the same thing
[10:09] <PriceChild> Adnan_, please pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst and "sudo fdisk -l"
[10:09] <Jowi> Jakyle, ok. here's why you get the error. You use an ATI card but you have selected the intel i810 driver. the intel driver can not find an intel video card on that bus. My guess is, if you change the driver from i810 to whichever your video card is supposed to have, the error will dissappear.
[10:09] <Sumsaren> f00fat: thanx..
[10:09] <Jeruvy> how does one empty trash as root?
[10:10] <PriceChild> Jeruvy, root doesn't have trash unless you've been naughty running nautilus as root
[10:10] <Jowi> Jakyle, I don't know ATI cards so I can not recommend a driver for you.
[10:10] <bentob0x> I don't get this, how can I have my boot messages logged into a /var/log/??? file?
[10:10] <Jakyle> lol sweet
[10:10] <UrbenLegend> @blinker here's some fsck commands http://www.computerhope.com/unix/fsck.htm you might have to run it while your partition is unmounted
[10:10] <Jakyle> the thing with Ati...
[10:10] <Jeruvy> PriceChild: no but I have filed that I deleted and I cannot empty the trash now
[10:10] <orchid`> can someone help me install a flash player fpor my ubuntu feisty fawn?
[10:10] <marti149> is there a way to list fullpaths using ls -la ? or something like it?
[10:10] <UrbenLegend> @blinker if its the root drive then use the live cd and run it from there
[10:10] <Jowi> Jakyle, try this (and hope it autodetects) "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and see which one the setup program recommends.
[10:10] <WaxyFres1> hi i lost my user name/pass once i boot into safe mode how do i see a list of what user names have been used?

[10:12] <Jakyle> *gulp*
[10:12] <PriceChild> Jeruvy, well that's your trash?
[10:12] <f00fat> WaxyFres1: have a look at /etc/passwd

[10:14] <Jowi> Jakyle, maybe this can help. see if there are any BIOS settings to set to make the default video card PCI instead of AGP; http://forums.kororaa.org/viewtopic.php?p=8452&sid=3377568074a2104d84f9b1a5edb39196
[10:14] <amias> qebab, i think you might also get some benefit from simplifing the options in your xorg.conf as they can often consume said resources
[10:14] <orchid`> i keep getting the fuke canot be installed due to lack of proper isntaller

[10:17] <Jowi> Jakyle, just because, I just remembered that i have a via motherboard with an onboard CL266 graphics card that is displaying through AGP even though I do not have a physical AGP slot in the machine....
[10:17] <donkeegan> thankd erUSul
[10:17] <Jakyle> lol
[10:17] <Jakyle> well thank you for your memory, you saved the day ;)
[10:17] <Jakyle> im going to see what I can configure, thanks for the help
[10:17] <amias> Jowi, lots of boards have built in AGP cards but no slots
[10:18] <bentob0x> ok, maybe I'm not very clear, sorry.  You know those messages you see when you boot with 'nosplash' on?  that's the messages I'd like to see in a log file
[10:18] <Vlet> Jowi: even thought the card is not in an agp slot, it still communicates with the rest of the mobo the same way agp cards do
[10:18] <Jowi> amias, I believe you. unfortunatley, I only saw one in my life.
[10:18] <amias> Jowi, they only come out when the moon is fool
[10:18] <SoulChild> where are packages downloadet if i download via apt-get ???
[10:18] <Jowi> Vlet, yeah, i understand the principle. but the first time you see it in the BIOS it is confusing.
[10:18] <f00fat> bentob0x: you can see it with dmesg | less
[10:18] <Vlet> bentob0x: dmesg should show you what you want to see

[10:26] <velo|gfx> ive deleted it accidentaly
[10:26] <zAo^> velo|gfx: restart networkmanager

[10:26] <Xyhthyx> velo|gfx: Alt-F2, and type nm-applet
[10:26] <zAo^> ^^
[10:26] <wonderboyjones> if i install Ultimate Gamers Edition over my existing, will it erase everything i have downloaded...music, movies etc
[10:27] <speroni> at first i was able to connect to my neighbors unencrypted wifi, but not my own, i've also tried it with roaming enabled
[10:27] <zAo^> wonderboyjones: by default it does
[10:27] <root____> My Xorg log says "incompatible kernel module detected - HW accelerated OpenGL will not work", I've referred to "http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/fglrx" and thought that I did everything right. Does anyone has a hint, please?
[10:27] <wonderboyjones> so i need to dump it to another drive?
[10:27] <arch_> where can I add/remove my home folder & computer icons from my gnome desktop (note: they can't be deleted via del key)?
[10:27] <velo|gfx> zAo nothing happens
[10:27] <UrbenLegend> @speroni are you using wep or wpa?
[10:27] <Jakyle> so I have no choice but to use my onboard to install ubunuto because it cannot detect my video card because there is no way I can turn my onboard video completely off through bios
[10:27] <KevinOman> something is definitely wrong with my sound, it detected the onboard card, but it just won't work
[10:27] <velo|gfx> zAo^:  :/ notthin happens
[10:28] <Jakyle> so when I get ubunto installed, is there anyway I can configure it so I can read my card later on?
[10:28] <Xyhthyx> arch_: you can just drag them from the places menu to your desktop
[10:28] <root____> I'm on ATI Mobile Radeon 9600, and I've install the Linux restricted module corresponding to my kernel. It all stopped to work suddenly
[10:28] <adnan__> pricechild you there?
[10:28] <speroni> everything is setup for wep in my house, but i tried it with wpa as well, id prefer to stick to wep to not have to reconfig everything else though
[10:28] <PriceChild> adnan__, yes
[10:28] <adnan__> cool
[10:28] <root____> Or can someone indicate a better channel for that kind of problem, please?
[10:28] <adnan__> ok i will show u what i got in grub
[10:28] <arch_> xyhthyx, what about removing them?
[10:29] <Xyhthyx> arch_: delete them as you would any other file
[10:29] <xbisont> how can i get the tty4 output into a file, during the Gutsy installation process?
[10:29] <Jowi> Jakyle, on my VIA machine the option is in "Integrated Peripherals" -> "Display Card Priority" [AGP|PCI Slot]    (CMOS on that machine is Phoenix AwardBIOS)
[10:29] <root____> zAo^: I get the error log in Xorg.log "(EE) fglrx(0): incompatible kernel module detected - HW accelerated OpenGL will not work"
[10:29] <zAo^> root____: in a terminal run: sudo chown -R <YOUR_USERNAME> ~/
[10:29] <zAo^> root____: ah, rebooted?
[10:30] <Jakyle> I don't that option at all
[10:30] <arch_> xyhthyx, it wont let me delete via delete key, I recall adding them through one of gnome's config managers
[10:30] <Jakyle> and I couldnt tell you my cmos
[10:30] <root____> zAo^: yes, several times
[10:30] <UrbenLegend> @speroni i've had that trouble with a netgear router using wep but i was able to connect to a wpa router just fine

[10:30] <Xyhthyx> arch_: If you added them from gconf, load up gconf "gconf-editor" in terminal, and travel to app->nautilus->desktop and turn each on/off
[10:30] <PriceChild> adnan__, please post the entire file, and entire output of that command i gave :)
[10:30] <root____> zAo^: Do you think that this might be related to some missing permissions on my home folder?
[10:30] <PriceChild> adnan__, and please keep it in here
[10:31] <PeterLander> test
[10:31] <donkeegan> verb3k_:  okay have you paired your device
[10:31] <Jakyle> jowi, but I was wondering if I could later find a way to have ubuntu read my card while I have it installed (note, I am a completely new to linux, reason im getting it is becasue my nasa advisor advesed I get it for comptuer science)
[10:31] <adnan__> ok pricechild

[10:31] <zAo^> root____: no, the error is related to your ati module version
[10:31] <UrbenLegend> @speroni i think it was open wep with 128 bit encryption
[10:31] <KevinOman> hehe
[10:31] <adnan__> sorry
[10:31] <PriceChild> adnan__, read the message from ubotu
[10:31] <speroni> i tried it with both, neither seems to work
[10:31] <adnan__> kk
[10:31] <UrbenLegend> @speroni it just kept asking me the password again and again and not connecting, that with roaming though
[10:31] <m0u5e> anyone know how to dual boot w/ vista using easyBCD? (exactly how do you use easyBCD -__-)
[10:31] <adnan__> sorry #
[10:31] <root____> zAo^: We're on the same wave length :)
[10:31] <verb3k_> donkeegan: I don't know ( really sorry)
[10:31] <kelsa|martalli> Is there a nice theme in green?  My favorite part of Suse is the green theme
[10:32] <zAo^> root____: installed the version from the ati website or from the repros?
[10:32] <speroni> i was using 64 hex because my xp puter doesn't seem to support 128
[10:32] <root____> zAo^: Unfortunatly, I'm very stupid when it comes to all those ATI/fglx/restricted modules
[10:32] <root____> zAo^: from the repos
[10:32] <wonderboyjones> anyone actually using the "Ultimate Gamers Edition"?
[10:32] <UrbenLegend> @speroni: just checking here what network card do you have?
[10:32] <Robbster> wonderboyjones: not me
[10:32] <root____> zAo^: from "apt-get install"s
[10:32] <speroni> but thats what its doin, just asking for password over and over
[10:32] <arch_> xyhthyx, thanks
[10:32] <m0u5e> hey, theres a bill gates edition now too lo
[10:32] <m0u5e> lol*
[10:32] <Jowi> Jakyle, that should not be a problem. I suggest you use the alternate install cd to install the OS.
[10:33] <donkeegan> well on the nokia phone switch bluetooth on then use the right navigation key and go to paired devices . then options  new paired device
[10:33] <root____> zAo^: Do you want me to check something on my box, please?
[10:33] <m0u5e> microsoft windows is turning into a collectible set now haha
[10:33] <wonderboyjones> just wondering if its worth trying out with everything that comes preinstalled
[10:33] <adnan__> pricechild http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36489/
[10:33] <Jowi> Jakyle, I won't be available for some time (wife need PC, typical haha)
[10:33] <speroni> its a usb wireless..  linksys with an rt2500 driver
[10:33] <Xyhthyx> kelsa|martalli: visit www.gnome-look.org and make your own green theme :)
[10:33] <donkeegan> verb3k_: then enter the pass code should be 1234 as default.
[10:33] <UrbenLegend> @speroni yeah that's what happens to me, for me it just happens with one particular router, all the others work fine. It was this stupid netgear router
[10:33] <zAo^> root____: did you upgrade ervery package?
[10:33] <m0u5e> anyone know how to use the EASYBCD bootloader?
[10:33] <Jakyle> jowi, lol, its cool which alternate do I use
[10:33] <m0u5e> i'd like to get ubuntu dual booting w/ vista, but i want to use EasyBCD rather than grub
[10:33] <UrbenLegend> @speroni usb wireless belkin with the same chip
[10:33] <Jowi> !alternate | Jakyle (good luck)
[10:33] <ubotu> Jakyle (good luck): 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
[10:33] <m0u5e> do i install it prior to installing feisty?
[10:33] <root____> zAo^: What do you mean, please? Can ou say it in other words...
[10:34] <bentob0x> thx Vlet and genii
[10:34] <kelsa|martalli> Xyhthyx:  Ahh, that's so much work, but I will take a look
[10:34] <wonderboyjones> i have XP on a different cd....Ubuntu is 10x better imo
[10:34] <Jakyle> !alternate
[10:34] <zAo^> root____: where are you from? :) run: sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade -f

[10:34] <wonderboyjones> different HD
[10:34] <speroni> any idea how to fix it..?
[10:34] <donkeegan> m0u5e:  grub does a fine job. just installed the two and i am using grub it works fine.
[10:34] <wonderboyjones> wanna get a small, shitty computer to put XP on
[10:34] <root____> zAo^: Yes, done now
[10:34] <dwood> Anyone know a reason why my network card would work when booting from the install CD, but not after the install?  I checked that I am loading all the same modules, but I get the message "Failed to bring up eth0"
[10:35] <zAo^> root____: no packages updated?
[10:35] <verb3k_> donkeegan: I discovered that gnome-bluetooth package faced a problem and didn't install correctly ..I will install it and If if face the same problem I will report back to you ...thanks for your help :)
[10:35] <m0u5e> donkeegan: did you first install vista then buntu?
[10:35] <UrbenLegend> @speroni: sorry that problem stumped me too, my fix was using my neighbors wifi, but first i had to zap his guard dog first :)
[10:35] <root____> zAo^: (this was already the case, because no install ocured)
[10:35] <Jakyle> !Minimal | Jakyle
[10:35] <donkeegan> verb3k_:  yw anyways i am off.
[10:35] <m0u5e> donkeegan: is there a way to install buntu without installing grub?
[10:35] <PriceChild> adnan__, back sorry
[10:35] <speroni> i tried follwing the instructions on ubuntu.com for setting it up on wpa and everything, i dunno
[10:35] <donkeegan> m0u5e:  yes i installed vista first as it is easier
[10:35] <Java4Ever> aorry guys maybe someone knows how to fix it? I just tried to install ubuntu via live cd on my laptop,(Amd 64 x2 Vista),but it couldn't initialize graphics system X or something.When I safe graphics mode, it was ok, but the resolution was very low...How to install in a normal way?where cann i get more info about that X system or smth?
[10:36] <root____> zAo^: I cannot understand why this only happen with other logins than the root
[10:36] <speroni> i can get it to work on my neighbors unencrypted, but i wanted to share files on my own network and such
[10:36] <PriceChild> adnan__, please pastebin both commands
[10:36] <zAo^> root____: so dont I :( Do you use GDM to start X?
[10:36] <Jakyle> oh my, okay, I need help, I am about to install the alternate version ubunutu because I am having technical difficulties with my video, I have no linux expereince, how hard is it going to be for me lol
[10:36] <rryan> I just got a 64-bit processsor.  Are there still reasons not to use 64-bit linux?    What apps are incompatible?
[10:36] <wonderboyjones> anyone suggest any games for Ubuntu?
[10:36] <PriceChild> !games | wonderboyjones
[10:36] <ubotu> wonderboyjones: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[10:36] <root____> zAo^: Right, under Gnome
[10:37] <urthmove1> games for ubuntu.....wesnoth?
[10:37] <zAo^> wonderboyjones: UT? Quake?
[10:37] <Xyhthyx> wonderboyjones: www.happypenguin.com
[10:37] <donkeegan> m0u5e: i dont know if you can install ubuntu without grub . sorry.
[10:37] <urthmove1> ET
[10:37] <UrbenLegend> @speroni: sorry i can't help you there, i just switched routers and it seemed to work
[10:37] <zAo^> root____: ok, when you restart GDM and try to login, what happens?
[10:37] <urthmove1> quake wars soon
[10:37] <adnan__> pricechild ok
[10:37] <UrbenLegend> @urthmove1: sauerbraten, et wolfenstein
[10:37] <root____> zAo^: I either use the "/etc/init.d/gdm start" or the "startx", the result is the same
[10:37] <speroni> darn..
[10:37] <wonderboyjones> was thinking about getting em...something to take my time up other than the 360
[10:38] <urthmove1> I think the external monitor process and increasing resolution is crappy
[10:38] <yagami> Hi, how do i install mp3 support for amaroK?
[10:38] <UrbenLegend> @snocone how is it?
[10:38] <donkeegan> m0u5e:  what i did was install vista first . make space for ubuntu and then intalled ubuntu ...and then i edited the grub file in /boot/gub and it recognises the vista
[10:38] <yagami> amarok-engines doesnt seem to solve the problem
[10:38] <adnan__> pricechild what two commands do you mean sorry
[10:38] <zAo^> root____: the machine just hangs?
[10:38] <dyrne> urthmove1: tremulous man
[10:38] <PriceChild> Adnan_, please pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst and "sudo fdisk -l"
[10:38] <m0u5e> donkeegan:  hmm
[10:38] <snocone> UrbenLegend: I did all that, but I don't have internet
[10:38] <yagami> plus, I am installing kde apps separately - don't want the entire beast hording off on my system
[10:38] <snocone> everything seems to be set right
[10:39] <yagami> ok, nvm, found the help pages :D
[10:39] <zAo^> any news on the new ATI driver yet?
[10:39] <adnan__> pricechild ok
[10:39] <UrbenLegend> @snocone did you properly modprobe it and remove any other conflicting driver like ndiswrapper
[10:39] <mike6546> how do you add things to the xubuntu menu?
[10:39] <dyrne> rryan: better to ask why to use 64 bit. if you have a large scale process that needs more than 4 gigs ram 64 bit is the way to go
[10:39] <snocone> UrbenLegend: meaning...?
[10:39] <donkeegan> m0u5e:  if your using feisty i think its even easier cause it will recognise vista and you wont have to edit grub
[10:39] <amias> zAo^, ati/md have not made it available for download yet
[10:39] <Xyhthyx> mike6546: I believe you right-click the menu button to change entries.
[10:39] <UrbenLegend> @snocone bcm43xx is a kernel module you have load it with "modprobe bcm43xx"
[10:39] <donkeegan> atleasts thats what i read. but i havent tried it. i had drapper
[10:40] <root____> zAo^: I can log in (in the case of a /etc/init.d/gdm start), but the session tries to start, and eventually comes back to the log in display
[10:40] <mike6546> thanks
[10:40] <rryan> dyrne:  *nods* I'm just curious if there are still 'penalties' to not using it... ie I don't think there's a current skype build for 64-bit .. at least that was the case a little bit ago
[10:40] <snocone> UrbenLegend: so I enter 'modprobe bcm43xx' into the terminal?
[10:40] <zAo^> root____: hmm. When you use the "vesa" driver, do you have the same problem?
[10:40] <Xyhthyx> snocone: modprobe requires root, so use 'sudo modprobe bcm43xx'
[10:41] <donkeegan> anyone got the motioneye camera running on a sony vaio ?
[10:41] <snocone> ok, will do.
[10:41] <nanonyme> ouch, someone else has bcm43xx too
[10:41] <UrbenLegend> @snocone yes and to make it load on boot you have to edit /etc/modules
[10:41] <root____> zAo^: Haven't been actually trying, but I guess that with "vesa", it works...
[10:41] <yagami> how's support for VIA's Chrome9 graphics IGPs?
[10:41] <root____> zAo^: I can make the test if this is important: tell me, please...
[10:42] <adnan__> pricechild : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36490/
[10:42] <zAo^> root____: you better try so. If not: try to rename the ~/.gnome and ~/.gconf directories
[10:42] <Xyhthyx> snocone: the package 'bcm43xx-fwcutter' automatically installs and loads bcm43xx firmware.
[10:42] <nanonyme> heh, the last i checked, that package was broken
[10:42] <root____> zAo^: Second hint: well thought...
[10:42] <rryan> hm. how about this: Who here uses 64-bit ubuntu without problems?
[10:43] <zAo^> root____: on an OSX machine, but I know some *nix things :) thnx
[10:43] <PriceChild> adnan__, by the way, you know that in grub, numbers start at 0, wheras on fdisk they start at 1?
[10:43] <Xyhthyx> If the download path is broken, can still use fwcutter to load the firmware files.
[10:43] <UrbenLegend> @snocone: type lsmod and see if bcm43xx is loaded, and also check if ndiswrapper or any other drive is loaded also
[10:43] <adnan__> pricechild i know that
[10:43] <Jakyle> where do I go to do the alternate instillation of ubuntu?
[10:43] <root____> zAo^: Also on OS X and Windows as well
[10:43] <adnan__> pricechid is that the same for paritions too?
[10:44] <UrbenLegend> @Xyhthyx: he said he already did that, so i am wondering if its just the bcm43xx module is not loading up or there's a conflicting driver
[10:44] <amias> Jakyle, same place as normal
[10:44] <snocone> ok, so I need to do sudo modprobe bcm43xx and lsmon... anything else?
[10:44] <adnan__> pricechild: same for partions too?
[10:44] <zAo^> root____: no windows here ;)
[10:44] <Jakyle> the download site?
[10:44] <UrbenLegend> @snocone lsmod
[10:44] <Xyhthyx> UrbenLegend: Ah kk.
[10:44] <Jakyle> hmm, maybe I missed it
[10:44] <snocone> ya, typo :)
[10:44] <ni1s> I installed only ubuntu-minimal so I could learn abit more on Ubuntu and have greater control, now I'm wondering what to apt-get to get the fancy boot splash, or is it too late?
[10:44] <Taffy-nay> has anyone here had any issues with the most recent compiz-fusion update via apt?
[10:44] <adnan__> pricechild: basically my other distro is on sda3
[10:44] <z0rz> How can I make screen auto run when I open terminal?
[10:44] <root____> zAo^: Know that :) Just discovered that I'm also running out of hard drive space :(
[10:44] <UrbenLegend> @snocone yeah try loading it and connecting and check if ndiswrapper is present or not, if it is something not right
[10:44] <z0rz> I'd like to use it as my shell
[10:45] <PriceChild> adnan__, yes, so in grub, it would be hd(0,2)
[10:45] <Java4Ever> I have problems with broadcom drivers too
[10:45] <amias> ni1s, sudo apt-get install usplash
[10:45] <zAo^> root____: lol hmm... /dev/disk0s2   434G   307G   127G    71%    /
[10:45] <ni1s> z0rz, $ some-terminal -e(usally) screen ?
[10:45] <Xyhthyx> The forum has a great howto on bcm43x.
[10:45] <adnan__> pricechild: ok, but do you think everything else i entered there for that distro looks correct?
[10:45] <ni1s> amias, thanks
[10:45] <zAo^> root____: gonna smoke, brb
[10:45] <yagami> whats a similar tool to windows-search/google desktop search for ubuntu?
[10:46] <maelcum> hello! massive problems installing ubuntu gutsy (and hardy) on a compaq 6910p - X doesn't work, no wireless and no cd either. integrated intel graphics, intel ata & sata controllers and intel wireless. what the fuck happened to the usually nice linux support of intel hardware?
[10:46] <UrbenLegend> @yagami: beagle?
[10:46] <Keule|On> hi there
[10:46] <Xyhthyx> yagami: beagle.
[10:46] <PriceChild> !gutsy | maelcum
[10:46] <ubotu> maelcum: 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
[10:46] <yagami> ok
[10:46] <Keule|On> how can i reinstall my usb things after failure
[10:46] <PriceChild> adnan__, depends where the kernel is
[10:46] <Java4Ever> maelcu, . same happened to me with my Hp pavilion laptop
[10:46] <tonyyarusso> maelcum: hardy doesn't even exist yet - that may be part of the issue.
[10:46] <yagami> damn it, keep using emerge isntead of apt-get
[10:46] <amias> ni1s, the install options just install a larger or lesser amount of packages , you add and remove as you please (dependencies permitting)
[10:46] <stdin> maelcum: 1) watch the language, 2) gutsy help only in #ubuntu+1
[10:47] <maelcum> tonyyarusso: oopsie. i mean gutsy and/or <old release>.
[10:47] <Xyhthyx> yagami: lol. I kept using yum when I first switched.
[10:47] <adnan__> pricechild: well i will check and make modifications i will reboot soon and be back hope you don't mind me asking for your help on this i appreciate it
[10:47] <maelcum> there are just too many names, and i'm using ubuntu for about two years now :)
[10:47] <tonyyarusso> maelcum: feisty ;)
[10:47] <PriceChild> adnan__, cya soon :)
[10:47] <yagami> well, this isnt my first time- i just use ubuntu when I need a quick fix ;)
[10:47] <nbkr> Keule|On, what does lsmod | grep usb show?
[10:47] <adnan__> :)
[10:48] <sarthor> Hi, using feisty, my computer have builtin lan card and configured as eth0, Now i have disabled that lan from bios, now i want my ubuntu to configure my other lan card as eth0, but it configured as eth1, Help
[10:48] <amias> maelcum, the hard disk device names have changed with the new kernel
[10:48] <Keule|On> nbkr: usbhid                 26720  0
[10:48] <Keule|On> hid                    27392  1 usbhid
[10:48] <Keule|On> usbcore               135048  4 usbhid,ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd
[10:48] <maelcum> okay, so let's talk about feisty. this compaq 6910 is very new and only the text mode installer works (X problems).
[10:48] <Keule|On> btw... i use ubuntustudio
[10:48] <Xyhthyx> sarthor: It doesn't work as eth1?
[10:48] <nbkr> Keule|On, Everything right with this. So whats the problem with your USB devices?
[10:49] <sarthor> Xyhthyx,  in my bandwidth shaper. i have to change about 250 files. coz i have put there eth0, so thats Y. Other wise it works
[10:49] <Keule|On> nothing works - the mouse is off
[10:49] <maelcum> amias: the funny thing is that there is *no* cd device at all in /dev. no hda (which is written in /etc/fstab), no sd<x>, no sg<x>. nothing.
[10:49] <Keule|On> the red led is of
[10:49] <Keule|On> f
[10:49] <Keule|On> the hubs doesnt work
[10:49] <ompaul> !bootoptions > maelcum (please check message from bot - this one is for booting it with gui)
[10:49] <ltar> i can never keep the names straight. What is 7.04?
[10:50] <Keule|On> the usb-harddisk runs but is not mountable

[10:50] <PriceChild> ltar, the feisty fawn
[10:50] <Java4Ever> what's wrong with that X?
[10:50] <nbkr> Keule|On, Anything in the logs when you add a new device?
[10:50] <amias> maelcum, sounds like your udev is hosed , does dmesg look normal ?
[10:50] <ompaul> iter, it is easy -- 7.04 Year 7 Month 4
[10:50] <Xyhthyx> sarthor: http://www.science.uva.nl/research/air/wiki/LogicalInterfaceNames
[10:50] <Keule|On> in the logs?
[10:50] <zlittell> anyone that is a PxE master should start a chat with me
[10:50] <Xyhthyx> sarthor: Hope that is some help.
[10:51] <sarthor> Xyhthyx, thank you brother,
[10:51] <maelcum> amias: i think so, except that if i grep for "optical", "cd-rom" and so on, nothing shows up.
[10:51] <maelcum> (looking for module load messages)
[10:51] <ompaul> iter, since dapper all are alphabetical testing is g and release is f
[10:51] <nbkr> Keule|On, Yeah, the Logfiles of the system /var/log/messages for example.
[10:52] <darlek2000> tail /var/logs/messages in a separate window, uninsert and then reinsert usb drive
[10:52] <root____> zAo^: Making a new test. brb
[10:52] <amias> maelcum, eek , doesn't sound good , i am dist-upgrading at the moment !
[10:52] <m0u5e> anyone know of a good sync application between windows and linux?
[10:52] <maelcum> amias: don't worry. it doesn't work with any version we tried here, so if it worked before it probably still works for you...
[10:53] <unagi> has ubuntu found a fix for the hibernation problem?
[10:53] <Urilockz> im installing java
[10:53] <nbkr> m0u5e, unison ?
[10:53] <Urilockz> and on the licence  agreement
[10:53] <Urilockz> in the terminal
[10:53] <Urilockz> I don't know what to do!
[10:53] <Xyhthyx> unagi: I've been hibernating for months using 'sudo hibernate'
[10:53] <zAo^> root____: b
[10:53] <UrbenLegend> just press space
[10:53] <m0u5e> nbkr: have you used unison to sync bewteen win and linux computers before? :D
[10:53] <Xyhthyx> unagi: install 'hibernate' package first ;)
[10:53] <dyrne> m0u5e: unison is fine though ive never cared for it. its good for end users
[10:53] <Keule|On> nbkr: i think nothing happens
[10:53] <recon> Urilockz: have you hit "right" then "enter" yet?
[10:53] <unagi> !info hibernate
[10:53] <ubotu> hibernate: smartly puts your computer to sleep (suspend to RAM or disk). In component universe, is extra. Version 1.94-2 (feisty), package size 84 kB, installed size 424 kB
[10:54] <nbkr> m0u5e, A few times.
[10:54] <Urilockz> oh thanks
[10:54] <Urilockz> it worked
[10:54] <nbkr> Keule|On, There has to be anything.
[10:54] <snocone> UrbenLegend: ok so if modprobe appears to do nothing, what does that mean?
[10:54] <Keule|On> i dont know what
[10:54] <Keule|On> im a newbee
[10:54] <speron2> huh
[10:54] <UrbenLegend> @snocone that means it worked
[10:55] <UrbenLegend> @snocone what does lsmod give you
[10:55] <nbkr> Keule|On, Just some additional lines in that file after you plugged the usb device in.
[10:55] <recon> UrbenLegend: what's with the @snocone?
[10:55] <unagi> can you set sudo hibernate to execute when you press the sleep button?
[10:55] <zlittell> im trying to do an install on a laptop and have to network boot... i can only get shell but want to do a full install over network... im soooo confused
[10:55] <UrbenLegend> @recon i was talking to him
[10:55] <recon> UrbenLegend: oh, thought it was a bot command or something.
[10:55] <Java4Ever> HEy I have amd based HP laptop and X system doesn't want to load at all, should i get drivers or smth?
[10:55] <UrbenLegend> @recon its just my way of specifying who i am talking too cuz these things go way too fast
[10:56] <unagi> ive been dissapointed in amd lately =(
[10:56] <Gnea> Java4Ever: what model?
[10:56] <snocone> UrbenLegend: I couldn't see ndiswrapper (?) anywhere in the list
[10:56] <Keule|On> nbkr: nothing
[10:56] <dyrne> Java4Ever: doesnt load using vesa? is xorg set to use lappys native resolution?
[10:56] <recon> UrbenLegend: ok. but usually, most people use "Nick:" or "Nick,".
[10:56] <Keule|On> really
[10:56] <Xyhthyx> unagi: I don't know how, but there has to be a way :p
[10:56] <Gnea> unagi: why? they just released new ATI drivers for linux...
[10:57] <UrbenLegend> Recon: yeah i know its just that sometimes its confusing cuz i think the one being targeted is the person speaking
[10:57] <Java4Ever> GNEA hp dv 6527ea
[10:57] <UrbenLegend> @snocone okay so after modprobe did you try connecting ?
[10:57] <unagi> because amd sold info to intel making the core duos possible and ever since then amd hasnt been able to hit the mark
[10:57] <snocone> yeah, it didn't work.
[10:57] <Java4Ever> dyrne where to get vesa drivers and where to find xorg:)
[10:57] <UrbenLegend> @snocone are you using roaming or regular connect
[10:57] <Java4Ever> i know i am lame but help me
[10:58] <snocone> what is roaming anyway?
[10:58] <john> hi, the fonts in my gnome are too small unless I start ubuntu in single user mode. Anyone know whats wrong?
[10:58] <^TalKz> hello all, there is any way to download defualt/restore the orginal xorg.conf file ?
[10:58] <UrbenLegend> @snocone using network manager
[10:58] <unagi> anyone here use maya?
[10:58] <snocone> I didn't have it checked, because I'd never heard it before
[10:58] <dyrne> Java4Ever: all that is already installed. basically you may just need to do a 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and choose vesa as the driver then the resolution you want. hit enter to select default for stuff you dont know
[10:58] <recon> john: not really, but you could go to System: Preferences: Font, and adjust the settings as needed.
[10:58] <Gnea> Java4Ever: isn't that using an nvidia video chipset?
[10:58] <mycroes> when I start gtk apps on a remote X server (Xming) the app stalls for a long time, strace reveals it's apparently doing a connect...
[10:58] <dyrne> Java4Ever: nvidia has very good linux support btw
[10:58] <mycroes> connect(15, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(16001), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.11.1")}, 16
[10:59] <mycroes> anybody has any clue what it could be?
[10:59] <Java4Ever> gnea yes, i have nvidia card
[10:59] <nbkr> Keule|On, What does lsusb show?
[10:59] <UrbenLegend> snocone: sorry about the so many restarts but could you try getting the lsmod output into a pastebin?
[10:59] <justin535431321> hey if im installing ubuntu on one partition at /dev/sdb1 where would i install grub by default it appears that the installer wants to install it to /dev/hd0 which when i restart comes up saying "error loading operating system"
[10:59] <snocone> UrbenLegend: ok, will do
[10:59] <Gnea> Java4Ever: then you do NOT want to use the vesa driver - use nv
[10:59] <UrbenLegend> snocone: and try using roaming mode and connecting through networkmanager, that's how i got it to work
[10:59] <Java4Ever> nvidia binray drivers?
[11:00] <Gnea> Java4Ever: vesa and nvidia do not get along
[11:00] <Java4Ever> ok
[11:00] <amias> ubotu, !bootprompt -> john
[11:00] <Gnea> Java4Ever: well, use nv for now, then upgrade to the binary drivers once you have the desktop up and running (there's a special ubuntu method for it)
[11:00] <PriceChild> Gnea, vesa's kind of a standard... what card doesn't work with it?
[11:00] <mycroes> Gnea, it's just nvidia that's not getting along ;)

[11:01] <Rosiel> is here someone from germany who can help me with compiz fusion and a nvidia 8600gt?
[11:01] <Keule|On> i know - sorrry
[11:01] <^TalKz> also, how can i dual boot with windows xp ?... any idea?
[11:01] <^TalKz> run windows xp on my ubuntu
[11:01] <barata> anybody uses festival and loquendo TTS?
[11:01] <gnuskool_> justin535431321: you dual booting with xp or 2 diff distros?
[11:01] <Gnea> PriceChild: he's got a brand-spanking new HP laptop and is trying to load the VESA X driver on it - he needs to use NV in order for it to work
[11:01] <nbkr> Keule|On, Ok - no USB Device there. Did it ever work?
[11:01] <dyrne> Java4Ever: the basic nvidia binary install is 1) sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx; sudo nvidia-xconfig; sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart   but it can depend if you have a really new or really old card
[11:01] <PriceChild> Gnea, why?
[11:02] <PriceChild> Gnea, again what card is it?
[11:02] <Keule|On> yes it did
[11:02] <Gnea> PriceChild: most likely because it's so new that it's incompatible with the vesa. he said X isn't working at all.
[11:02] <Keule|On> and ther are a mouse connected
[11:02] <Gnea> PriceChild: it's an nvidia.
[11:02] <john> tat bootprompt returned no results
[11:02] <PriceChild> *head desks and moves on*
[11:02] <justin535431321> gnuskool_: no just ubuntu.
[11:02] <Keule|On> after a restart it wont work
[11:02] <^TalKz> i have windows xp, and ubuntu. i want to run windows xp on my ubuntu... is it possible?
[11:02] <stefano> how do i find out about the network card an ubuntu distribution supports?
[11:02] <PriceChild> ^TalKz, virtualise or dual boot?
[11:02] <Gnea> PriceChild: Video adapter
[11:02] <nbkr> Keule|On, What did you before that restart? Any updates or system changes?
[11:02] <^TalKz>  virtualise
[11:02] <Gnea> oops
[11:03] <Gnea> NVIDIA GeForce\u2122 7150M
[11:03] <PriceChild> stefano, best bet is to boot a live cd on whatever hardware has it, and see if it works
[11:03] <Gnea> straight from hp's website
[11:03] <gnuskool_> justin535431321: is it all on the same partition, or do you have more than 1?
[11:03] <PriceChild> never knew that one existed :S
[11:03] <nbkr> ^TalKz, Use virtualbox, qemu or vmware for that.
[11:03] <justin535431321> nope just one partition gnuskool
[11:03] <MOTZ> any guilde for broadcom 4311 on feisty ?
[11:03] <stefano> PriceChild, does ubuntu have any history supporting Nexxt cards?
[11:03] <usser> Gnea: hm hard to believe something can be incompatible with vesa
[11:03] <^TalKz> is it easy? can i install and configure it buy add/remove button?
[11:03] <moi_> bonsoir
[11:03] <Gnea> PriceChild: i agree that vesa *should* work with it, but he might as well just use the standard nv
[11:04] <dyrne> ^TalKz: i like vmware-server which is free from their site for linux but you might also google seamless desktop for ubuntu which is basiclly qemu and rdesktop
[11:04] <sarthor> i have 250 file for in my /etc/shaper for each of my netowrk user, I have to change my eth0 to eth1, Can i do this by any single commad??   my files sample is here  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36492/
[11:04] <PriceChild> Its definitely not "too new" for it to not work on it... :S
[11:04] <nuup> hi
[11:04] <Gnea> ^TalKz: no, it's a bit more involved than that
[11:04] <urthmover> I wish Fullscreen (F11) on Firefox (and most applications) still allowed whatever is designated to be Always on top to show as well....like Firefox big with a little irssi window in the lower left
[11:04] <Xyhthyx> MOTZ: Search ubuntuforums.org for "howto broadcom bcm43xx"
[11:04] <Keule|On> i wanted to install my dvb-t card
[11:04] <nuup> can anybody invite me to good torrent tracker ?
[11:04] <nuup> i d be very gratefull
[11:04] <Gnea> PriceChild: he said it wasn't working, i provided a solution that will work. :)
[11:04] <ptn107> MOTZ: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1071920&mode=linear
[11:04] <zlittell> i hate to do this but why do i only install a minimal shell ubuntu when i use PxE
[11:04] <dyrne> ^TalKz: not sure what easiest app would be
[11:04] <nbkr> ^TalKz, If you activate the commerical repository of Ubuntu and you're running feisty you should be able to install VMware. But you will need a license from vmware.com (for free).
[11:04] <^TalKz> once i've done something with vmware  and its scored up all my boot loading
[11:04] <^TalKz> :/
[11:05] <johndarc> salut
[11:05] <nuup> CAN ANYONE INVITE ME TO TORRENT SITE ?
[11:05] <PriceChild> Gnea, ok cool
[11:05] <ptn107> MOTZ: i have the bcm4318 in my compaq, but even after getting it to work for some reason I had to be really close to the wireless access point to connect
[11:05] <^TalKz> so what are you recommending on?

[11:05] <dyrne> nuup: i invite you to isohunt. come on in

[11:05] <nuup> rly fast
[11:06] <Xyhthyx> ptn107: Yeah, the bcm43xx module has very short range. Using ndiswrapper you get twice the range.
[11:06] <nuup> ;p
[11:06] <nbkr> Keule|On, So what did you do to install the dvb-t card?
[11:06] <croweboy> list
[11:06] <Kaur> is it normal that dmesg is full of ata1: soft resetting port?
[11:06] <nuup> so sad

[11:06] <nuup> i got ubuntu so theres no need to tell me abaout that
[11:06] <nuup> ;/
[11:06] <Java4Ever> gnea if i have nvida 7150 should i type nvidia-glx?(for legacy nvidia cards)?
[11:06] <ptn107> Xyhthyx: yeah but for some reason I could never get it to work, wish that it did
[11:07] <usser> Kaur: no
[11:07] <root____> zAo^: too bad. The Gnome directories have even not been recreated
[11:07] <root____> zAo^: Going for the vesa now
[11:07] <UrbenLegend> @ptn107: yeah it also has problems with the speed cuz the tx power is low, so its gets stuck at 11 mbps
[11:07] <nike^^> hi

[11:22] <SOja> hi
[11:22] <kris> okies..
[11:22] <SOja>  you now me?
[11:23] <ptn107> anyone know why apparmor would work right after installing, but not after a reboot
[11:23] <kris> have you gone to the nvidia website and downloaded the proprietary drivers for the card?
 SOja, Hi  ) now me?
[11:23] <Asuka321> no
[11:23] <PriceChild> adnan_, wait a minute... pm me what you've added to menu.lst please
[11:23] <tarvid_> is there an openoffice.org or abiword channel?
[11:23] <adnan_> pricechild ok
[11:24] <kris> I recommend you go and download that driver.
[11:24] <stdin> !nvidia | Asuka321
[11:24] <ubotu> Asuka321: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:24] <kris> thanks, ubotu... i was looking for that :P
[11:25] <Asuka321> alright, after that then what?
[11:25] <kris> it should allow you to change your screen res directly in Gnome
[11:25] <kris> it will populate the list with supported modes.
[11:25] <albertico> I have a packard bell easynote and when I close gnome session many times it get frozen, is it a know bug? doesnt happen all times, and it happen with xserver and xgl xserver, both
[11:26] <Asuka321> alright
[11:26] <ptn107> !apparmor
[11:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apparmor - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:26] <adnan_> pricechild: pmmed you dude
[11:26] <kris> all the easynotes my company have are runninf fine with fiesty and LTS
[11:26] <kris> feisty rather.
[11:27] <Asuka321> so, when i get into Xorg with sudo
[11:27] <Asuka321> i type the command lspci | grep -i nvidia
[11:27] <albertico> kris, Yes, works OK, but when I close gnome session, some times, it gets frozen
[11:27] <Asuka321> and that should do it?
[11:27] <XanKriegor> SOja,   
[11:27] <albertico> kris, or switching user
[11:27] <JoshJ> So, I'm having some problems with Java on Feisty. I have sun-java5-bin which is what my CS course requires me to use for java; but I want to use eclipse. The problem is, eclipse depends on the gnu java libgcj (4.1.2-0ubuntu5) and brings that in. Well, that's fine, I can set Eclipse to use sun java 5 in the settings, but I need the command line java and javac to be using sun java as well. How do I do that?
[11:28] <albertico> kraut, Not reset or shuwdown, only changing user or closing sessiond, and not allways :/
[11:28] <ltar> how can I list all the HDD's in my computer, in order to determine which is HDa, HDb, etc?
[11:28] <JoshJ> ltar: ls /dev | grep hda
[11:28] <kris> it should you, Askuka321
[11:28] <kris> do**
[11:28] <Xyhthyx> JoshJ: You have to set sun's java as the first java to look for.
[11:28] <ltar> also, how can I not have to remount my several HDD's each time I boot?
[11:28] <Asuka321> now, if I am booting off the cd, will this still work?
[11:28] <JoshJ> Xyhthyx: and how do i do that?
[11:29] <JoshJ> ltar:  though you would have to look at the ones returned in order to see which ones are correct... as far as mounting, you need to use the fstab.. there's probably an article on the ubuntu wiki about fstab
[11:29] <Xyhthyx> JoshJ: I forgot ;p but it's in ubuntuguide.org somewhere.
[11:29] <JoshJ> !fstab
[11:29] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[11:29] <kris> good point, how DO you do that
[11:29] <Zodiac> heya, does anyone know why I get this message: (emerald:23055): Wnck-WARNING **: Unhandled action type (nil)
[11:29] <Xyhthyx> JoshJ: I know it involves adjusting the java entries in a /etc file.
[11:29] <gnuskool_> justin535431321: check this out http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm#Re-install_Grub_with_Live_CD
[11:29] <JoshJ> fun :/

[11:29] <Zodiac> thx
[11:29] <JoshJ> !java
[11:29] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[11:29] <bascule> it will execute the first java in $PATH it finds
[11:29] <HelplessSEAL> Is there any way to have 3d hardware acceleration on vmware?
[11:30] <JoshJ> thanks bascule
[11:30] <bascule> np
[11:30] <Xera> Thanks bascule, that worked.
[11:30] <kris> Its a goddamn nightmare to get Beryl working on ATI :P I just gave up and decided to work for a living :P
[11:30] <Asuka321> also, there is another thing, will I be able to get xchat with just booting off the cd? because when I tried yesterday, it said the package couldnt be found
[11:30] <bascule> JoshJ: do you kno where to change it or how?
[11:30] <kris> hmm
[11:30] <bruenig> Asuka321, use gaim
[11:30] <kris> you should be able to..
[11:30] <HelplessSEAL> this is xp running vmware with ubuntu mounted
[11:30] <atdejong> ive got a question about java..  i installed the package from Sun, installed it like it told me to, word for word, and when i was done it said it was successfully installed, but it still wont work
[11:30] <kris> otherwise, do what he said.
[11:30] <bascule> Xera: welcome
[11:31] <Asuka321> i can access xchat with gaim?
[11:31] <Asuka321> or rather, this channel?
[11:31] <JoshJ> Asuka321: gaim lets you access irc
[11:31] <JoshJ> yeah
[11:31] <XanKriegor> how can i connect ti remote desktop 1. without warning for user 2. without session
[11:31] <speroni> /command
[11:31] <JoshJ> you just make an irc "account"
[11:31] <bruenig> atdejong, why didn't you use the package in the repository?
[11:31] <kris> did you install the dependancies in synaptic?
[11:31] <XanKriegor> help
[11:31] <JoshJ> which is kinda faking it but yeah
[11:31] <kris> it does it automatically.
[11:31] <speroni> i am using pidgin right now, its nice
[11:31] <JoshJ> bascule: possibly, i'm going to look it up on ubuntuguides.org...
[11:31] <Asuka321> alright, thanks
[11:31] <XanKriegor> how can i connect oi remote desktop 1. without warning for user 2. without session
[11:31] <kris> kk Askua
[11:31] <JoshJ> ..a.nd it's not there
[11:32] <atdejong> bruenig: i didnt see one in the add remove
[11:32] <JoshJ> bah. bascule you know how to change the paths?
[11:32] <aJoshw> I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu 64 Feisty. Am I in the right place?
[11:32] <khatahn> is the latest adobe flash beta version available as a ubuntu package somewhere?
[11:32] <atdejong> bruenig: should i use the apt get method?
[11:32] <ltar> arg. I can right-click the drive and click "mount", but nothing happens. it makes me angry that that's broken. so many things are broken.
[11:32] <JoshJ> atdejong: you should always use apt-get or synaptic
[11:32] <derekj212> is this the right place for trying for figure out desktop effects with an ATI X1600Pro?
[11:32] <ltar> [/whine] 
[11:32] <JoshJ> add/remove is really for noobs who have ZERO clue what they're doing :(
[11:32] <bascule> set the sun java dir first in $PATH in /etc/profile or ~/.bash_profile
[11:32] <bruenig> atdejong, sorry that ubuntu has 5 different package management schemes, I understand that is confusing, but yes you can get it via apt-get with sun-java6-jre, or you can locate it in synaptic under that same name
[11:33] <ltar> JoshJ: or for people who don't know the exact package name for apt-get
[11:33] <Xyhthyx> JoshJ: type 'update-java-alternatives' and pick sun's java.
[11:33] <bruenig> atdejong, make sure you remove the other one first
[11:33] <kris> apt-get or synaptic do it better than addremove anyway...they should swap it over.
[11:33] <JoshJ> ltar: that's what apt-cache search and the synaptic thing are for
[11:33] <XanKriegor> I need Radmin or DameWare analog for ubuntu. ViNO is bad for me
[11:33] <JoshJ> Xyhthyx: awesome, that looks like the best way to do it
[11:33] <atdejong> bruenig: i;ll just use the apt-get, that hasnt failed me yet
[11:33] <bascule> Xyhthyx: never knew that one .. thanks
[11:33] <kris> Radmin
[11:33] <kris> actually works in wine.
[11:33] <bruenig> stupid add/remove confusing people
[11:33] <ltar> JoshJ: oh. I had forgoten about apt-cache-search
[11:33] <kris> but it sucks a lot.
[11:34] <JoshJ> ltar: grep is quite possibly my favorite command
[11:34] <kris> if you do a sudo apt-get install vncserver
[11:34] <JoshJ> so apt-cache search foo | grep bar
[11:34] <JoshJ> is awesome :D
[11:34] <bruenig> sed > awk
[11:34] <XanKriegor> kris, For managment ubuntu woarkstation ?
[11:34] <bruenig> sed > grep
[11:34] <JoshJ> bruenig: not for simple stuff
[11:34] <Xyhthyx> JoshJ: You mean apt-cache search foo | grep foo :P
[11:34] <bascule> dpkg -S /some/file is cool and useful too
[11:34] <JoshJ> Xyhthyx: uh... why would you do that?
[11:34] <XanKriegor> kris, i support users and i need see its screens
[11:34] <kris> ok...
[11:35] <ltar> in any case... my single partition 80 gb ext3 hard drive is still unmounted...  /dev grep | hda returns four hda
[11:35] <ltar> 1 2 3 and 4
[11:35] <Xyhthyx> JoshJ: Well if you search foo and grep bar, you'll never find bar.
[11:35] <Xyhthyx> An nevermind ;p
[11:35] <derekj212> can anyone help me get xgl or compiz running?
[11:35] <aJoshw> Can anyone help me install Ubuntu 64 Feisty?  I've been getting an error when it tries to install the kernel.
[11:35] <JoshJ> and yeah, that update-java-alternatives is awesome
[11:35] <JoshJ> thanks
[11:35] <Xyhthyx> np
[11:35] <ltar> is there some way I can list my hard drives... with a clue as to which is which?
[11:35] <ltar> I have several
[11:35] <XanKriegor> kris, I install tightvnc but Xtightvncserver print error
[11:35] <dyrne> aJoshw: you have a 64bit cpu? ;p
[11:35] <bruenig> editing the PATH is better than alternatives in my book
[11:36] <JoshJ> ltar: places- computer works
[11:36] <bascule> ltar: cfdisk is pretty good
[11:36] <kris> ah..
[11:36] <atdejong> is there a list of programs that are installable using apt-get?
[11:36] <bascule> fdisk -l
[11:36] <clever> how would i recover the partition table after its been whiped by shity XP?
[11:36] <JoshJ> bruenig: when i loaded the /etc file, there wasn't even a path in it
[11:36] <clever> ive found the start of the partition
[11:36] <JoshJ> atdejong: yes
[11:36] <snocone> UrbenLegend: http://pastebin.com/m7e18dc58
[11:36] <Xyhthyx> atdejong: Sure, just launch Synaptic and check them all out.
[11:36] <JoshJ> atdejong:  packages.ubuntu.com is probably the easiest way to do it
[11:36] <bascule> PATH is a variable in /etc/profile
[11:36] <kris> hmm..
[11:36] <ltar> JoshJ: but I can't mount from places computer, I need to know the HDX designation for the HDD in question. it's nowhere to be found in nautilus
[11:36] <JoshJ> since you may not have all the repositories enabled
[11:36] <dyrne> aJoshw: will this be a general desktop machine? it may be that 64 bit is more trouble than it is worth to you at this point.
[11:37] <albertico> I have a packard bell easynote and when I close gnome session many times it get frozen, is it a know bug? doesnt happen all times, and it happen with xserver and xgl xserver, both
[11:37] <JoshJ> ltar: in that case why not just do ls /dev | grep hda

[11:37] <JoshJ> ltar:  then do ls on each of those to see which is which
[11:37] <Rosiel> anyone her who get Compiz Fusion with an GF8600GT running?
[11:37] <bruenig> JoshJ, you can replicate what grep does with sed for the most part without much more difficulty and the vast other things it can do
[11:37] <UrbenLegend> @snocone: yeah everything seems to be working fine
[11:37] <JoshJ> it's probably not the "cleanest" way to do it but it'll work *shrug*
[11:37] <kris> i have no idea without researching, of anything that could help
[11:37] <UrbenLegend> @snocone excpet the fact you can't connect
[11:37] <dyrne> Rosiel: id /join #ubuntu-effects and ask there as well
[11:37] <UrbenLegend> @snocone what does it do when you try to connect?
[11:38] <snocone> UrbenLegend: nothing.
[11:38] <J-_> http://pastebin.ca/682954 are those dependencies needed in a "secure system" or functional safe system?
[11:38] <snocone> UrbenLegend: what does roaming mean?
[11:38] <XanKriegor> kris, error - screen 0 already use ...
[11:38] <kris> not assigning to any specific location
[11:38] <kris> = roaming
[11:38] <XanKriegor> kris, error - display 0 already use ...
[11:38] <kris> will dhcp when it can
[11:38] <sarthor> i have 250 file for in my /etc/shaper for each of my netowrk user, I have to change my eth0 to eth1, Can i do this by any single commad??   my files sample is here  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36492/

[11:39] <nilsjoa> oh, sorry
[11:39] <ltar> JoshJ: ls /dev | grep hda lists the 5 partitions on HDA. this must be my 250 gb HDD. so I'll try grep HDB, and find two partitions on...  one of my three HDD's. HDC returns nothing. I still have no idea how to mount the hard drive labelled "80 gb old Ubuntu" in nautilus.
[11:39] <bruenig> ltar, sudo fdisk -l would be an easier way to go about that...
[11:40] <bascule> ltar: if it's SATA it will be sda
[11:40] <aJoshw> Thanks for all the help..... e_e
[11:40] <dyrne> sarthor: something like "sed -i s/eth0/eth1/g *"  ??
[11:40] <kris> Xan, thats odd...
[11:40] <kris> Have a look on the 'buntu wiki
[11:40] <ltar> bruenig: THAT's the command I was looking for!
[11:40] <ltar> thank you
[11:40] <UrbenLegend> snocone: are you using any encryption
[11:40] <snocone> UrbenLegend: so any idea what's wrong?
[11:40] <snocone> wep
[11:41] <sarthor> thank you dyrne , Can you not help in a bit detail?
[11:41] <Gnea> sarthor: try this: perl -pi -e 's/eth0/eth1/g' *
[11:41] <UrbenLegend> snocone: does it keep asking you for the password?
[11:41] <Tyle2> does anyone know how to adjust color on a nVidia ge force 4 restricted driver
[11:41] <kris> {{AFK}}
[11:41] <snocone> no, it doesn't do anything
[11:41] <Gnea> Tyle2: install nvidia-settings
[11:41] <UrbenLegend> snocone: and you have roaming enabled and you are using the network manager applet in your tool bar?
[11:41] <Tyle2> do i do that off nvidia .com
[11:42] <bjames> hi all
[11:42] <Gnea> Tyle2: no, with the package manager, it's part of ubuntu
[11:42] <cizarr> is there any one-click translators for linux? like babylon ?
[11:42] <snocone> UrbenLegend: I don't have roaming enabled now, no. and yes
[11:42] <kris> \afk
[11:42] <Tyle2> o ok
[11:42] <UrbenLegend> snocone: also bcm43xx can only do 11 mbps so if your router is set to 54 mbps only
[11:42] <snocone> UrbenLegend: that's fine, if I ever need faster, I'll deal with it then
[11:42] <UrbenLegend> snocone well you can't use the network manager applet without roaming enabled
[11:42] <bjames> I quite often do the following:  cat > FILE << EOF and I wanted to make this into a BASH script so I can just type makeme FILE and it has the same behaviour - how do I do it?
[11:42] <squee> UrbenLegend:  Are you sure about that?  Is it restricted to b only?  Or is it just your model
[11:43] <amias> sartor: actually you can do it with just sed - sed -i 's/eth0/eth1/' /etc/shaper/*
[11:43] <bjames> I've tried:  exec cat > $1 << EOF
[11:43] <UrbenLegend> squee: the tx power for bcm43xx driver is not powerful enough so its sutck at 11 mbps
[11:43] <bjames> but it doesn't work
[11:43] <bruenig> bjames, I did this with read before
[11:43] <bruenig> bjames, you aware of read?
[11:43] <squee> UrbenLegend:  alright
[11:43] <UrbenLegend> squee: says so on the website
[11:43] <bjames> yes
[11:43] <snocone> UrbenLegend: lemme go fiddle. I may get it right
[11:43] <P_Kable> does somebody here uses ddclient behind a router, by chance ?
[11:43] <bjames> I'll try it
[11:43] <ChildX> hello
[11:43] <bjames> cheers
[11:44] <squee> UrbenLegend:  I dont use any broadcom chipset card so i've never heard that
[11:44] <amias> bjames: see the useless uses of cat website
[11:44] <sarthor> Gnea, Thank you very very Much.. I love you brother, you solved my problem. thank you agani
[11:44] <bruenig> bjames, yeah so just have it echo ">" if you want it to look just like the cat thing, and then have it read each line and then test whether the line says EOF or not, if it doesn't, then append it to FILE, if it does, then exit
[11:44] <ChildX> how can i install java on Ubuntu 7.04 i386 desktop version?
[11:44] <amias> P_Kable, do you mean dhclient ?
[11:44] <bruenig> bjames, have to do a loop obviously
[11:44] <dyrne> amias: that command is nowhere cryptic enough. you should have put it in a perl script
[11:44] <P_Kable> ddclient amias ddclient
[11:45] <P_Kable> dyndns wan IP update client
[11:45] <amias> dyrne: i know , sometimes i worry that unix is getting to user friendly ;)

[11:50] <boojah> i just set up ssh here.. i created keys and such, and opened port 22 for my box on the router. i only have this box here.. so i can't check how the remote connection will go. but if i try to use putty on this box i can't use my dyndns address (connection refused) but localhost workes. is this because im trying to go back trough my own interface?
[11:50] <speroni> i am having trouble getting the wifi on my ubuntu to work
[11:50] <amias> albertico, sounds like a bug to me , you could try setting up the framebuffer to use the same resolution as X to prevent mode changes that might be tripping the bug

[11:53] <snocone> UrbenLegend: ok, I'm connected to the network. but still no internet. where do I go from here?
[11:53] <ironfroggy> what are each of them for?
[11:53] <ChildX> do you have Bojan 2.0 installed?

[11:54] <ChildX> ironfroggy, install Bojan 2.0
[11:54] <Kworth> ChildX: /etc/cron.hourly is excecuted by root , isn't it?
[11:54] <ironfroggy> im sorry i didnt know you were talking to me
[11:54] <Asuka4321> alright, i'm still not getting how to change my resolution to 1440x900
[11:54] <bruenig> Kworth, the things in cron.hourly are yes
[11:54] <ChildX> Kworth, what?
[11:54] <Kworth> bruenig, thanks
[11:54] <Surlent> wow. I still use 800x600
[11:54] <brmassa> guys, i installed windows after kubuntu on a fat32 partition. now i want to access the partition its saying: "hal-storage-fixed-mount refused uid 1000"
[11:54] <ironfroggy> i tried to start through the web admin, but it asks for a password and i have no idea what it is. i never had a place to configure one when i installed cups.
[11:54] <Kworth> ChildX, bruening already answered me , but thanks
[11:55] <bruenig> Kworth, you can do a user crontab though, with crontab -e
[11:55] <Asuka4321> im in the sudo xorg, and i typed Ispci | grep -i nvidia, but it didn't do anything
[11:55] <Java4Ever> it still doesn't work, someone tell me how to install nvidia binary files if all i have is Ubuntu live cd
[11:55] <UrbenLegend> snocone: you're connected but no internet?
[11:55] <Kworth> bruenig, yeah but i want a backup task so I need root
[11:55] <snocone> yeah
[11:55] <UrbenLegend> @snocone can you access your router?
[11:55] <ChildX> i'm a noob on linux :D
[11:55] <Java4Ever> i see so many people have problems with ubuntu
[11:55] <snocone> yes
[11:55] <stefg> brmassa: #kubuntu
[11:55] <UrbenLegend> snocone: as in router configuration page and stuff like that?
[11:55] <ChildX> ubuntu is a shit-load of fuck
[11:55] <Java4Ever> :D
[11:55] <UrbenLegend> language
[11:56] <Kworth> Java4Ever, 32 or 64bit
[11:56] <Surlent> GNOME reminds me of the old Macintosh...
[11:56] <Kworth> ?
[11:56] <bascule> ChildX: was that good or bad?? :)
[11:56] <Java4Ever> 32
[11:56] <ironfroggy> what is this bojan?
[11:56] <brmassa> stefg. its not a specific to kubuntu.
[11:56] <stdin> !language > ChildX
[11:56] <davidthedrake> Can anyone give me a link to a guide on how to use VirtualBox with a pre-existing windows installation? Everything I'm finding for resources shows me how to use virtual box to install a new OS.
[11:56] <ChildX> FUCK YOU ALL  !!!
[11:56] <snocone> UrbenLegend: well, I didn't try to configure my router. but I imagine it would work
[11:56] <Asuka4321> I have a widescreen monitor with the best resolution of 1440x900 except currently, none of the default ubuntu settings let me higher that 1280
[11:56] <Kworth> Java4Ever, Just download the files from Nvidia.com and start the programm
[11:56] <Asuka4321> how can I fix this?
[11:56] <Almighty_Henaro> Hey guys how do you change resolution in KDE?
[11:56] <Lamego> davidthedrake, I am not sure you can use an installed windows on virtualbox
[11:56] <bruenig> Almighty_Henaro, #kubuntu
[11:56] <Lamego> unless you create an image from an installtion
[11:56] <snocone> UrbenLegend: I had signal bars showing
[11:57] <bascule> Almighty_Henaro: control centre peripherals monitor
[11:57] <Almighty_Henaro> Okay e_e
[11:57] <UrbenLegend> snocone: well cuz if you can access your router config but not the internet i'd say something wrong with dns
[11:57] <Java4Ever> kworth the problem is i cant not download when i start ubunt, cause my broadcom card doesnt' work!
[11:57] <kapo> i just enabeld my ati card to restricted drivers and i try to run my desktop effects to run 3d desktop it says the composite extension is not available is that.ptw i have internal card on motherbord
[11:57] <boojah> stefg: im not sure what i gotta do with openssh.. if i have sshd running, port 22 open, and created the keys, shouldn't i be able to access remotely?
[11:57] <Almighty_Henaro> How do I get to control center?
[11:57] <davidthedrake> Lamego, Gotcha. Know of any virtualization software that will allow for the use of pre-existing installations?
[11:57] <Asuka4321> !nvidia
[11:57] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:57] <bulmer> snocone: or the route table is not correct
[11:57] <Kworth> Java4Ever, Don't u have an USB Stick?
[11:57] <stefg> boojah: actually yes
[11:57] <Java4Ever> yeah , i have
[11:57] <snocone> bulmer: elaborate on this router table.
[11:57] <ironfroggy> where does the cups web admin get the username and passwords it accepts? i dont know how to configure that.
[11:58] <bascule> Almighty_Henaro: off the start menu but #kubuntu is the place
[11:58] <Kworth> Is there something like Acronis True Image for Ubuntu, if yes how is it called?
[11:58] <Lamego> davidthedrake, I believe vmware does, but even it does it is a complex setup, due to the differences between your real OS and the VM HW, from a device driver configuration perspective
[11:58] <bulmer> snocone can you paste into pastebin your result of  netstat -ran
[11:58] <UrbenLegend> snocone: okay that's a good step forward though, at least the driver seems to be working, but def check on next restart if you can access router config. Go to your dns tab and see if its listing your router private ip as a dns server
[11:58] <bruenig> ironfroggy, you need a root password, shhh don't tell anyone I told you that, they will kill me
[11:58] <boojah> stefg: but if i try to use the dyndns address (at least from here, the localhost) it seems it tries to access the router
[11:58] <stefg> boojah: try sudo/etc/init.d/ssh restart ... just to make sure
[11:59] <Kworth> Is there an tool with wich I can create an Image of an harddisk and restore it lateron, I tried Simple Backup but it doesn't work like its supposed to
[11:59] <Kworth> ?
[11:59] <stefg> !info partimage | Kworth
[11:59] <ubotu> kworth: partimage: backup partitions into a compressed image file. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.4-17 (feisty), package size 268 kB, installed size 944 kB
[11:59] <Rosiel> ubuntu-effects
[11:59] <davidthedrake> Lamego, Alright. Simplicity would be a good thing at this point. I've already had tons of fun just getting Ubuntu to work on my Laptop. Thanks for the info though :)
[11:59] <bulmer> ironfroggy: lppasswd
[11:59] <bascule> Kworth: the most definite way id dd if=/dev/hd?? of=dump.img
[12:00] <Asuka4321> I'm trying to download a driver from nvidia so that I can reach 1440x900 on my graphics card. with Ubuntu 7.04, do I select Lunux x86 or linux x64?
[12:00] <TuPari> When I try to boot my newly install system it just says GRUB and freezes
[12:00] <bascule> then to restore it dd if=dump.img of=/dev/hd??
[12:00] <boojah> stefg: ssh is running, i can access myself if i use the loopback address (duh) but is there anyway to make sure its accessable from the outside
[12:00] <TuPari> I think grub can't handle my raid card
[12:00] <stefg> Asuka4321: don't use that
[12:00] <stefg> !fixres | Asuka4321

[12:00] <POVaddct> boojah: you cannot test that from inside
[12:00] <stefano_> Does anyone know the way to force a gigabit network card to 1000?
[12:00] <sambiase> hi there...i wonder if there is a kubuntu small enough to run from a USB stick and still be able to save information...
[12:00] <sambiase> ?
[12:00] <doddi> someone offer help why i cant see my harddrive on the live CD - so i cant gpart or install?
[12:00] <TuPari> sambase how big is the stick?
[12:00] <Java4Ever> i think windows is much better, everything works perectly, no need to fuck with drivers
[12:00] <stefano_> mii-tool only shows till 100base-TxFD
[12:01] <sebsebseb> I carn't enable the Nivida driver in Gutsy. I am on the Feisty live CD at the moment. sudo nvidia-glx-config enable Error: /etc/X11/xorg.conf or /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum are missing from your system.
[12:01] <boojah> POVaddci: :( well i guess i just have to wait then
[12:01] <ironfroggy_> got disconnected. so, are the creds cups wants for a real user?
[12:01] <doddi> its a SATA drive
[12:01] <Asuka4321> i dont think i need to restart my x
[12:01] <ironfroggy_> and if that user is in lpadmin, shouldnt that be enough?
[12:01] <sambiase> TuPari: i would like something around 1GB
[12:01] <sebsebseb> Please be sure that your xserver package is installed correctly. I assume I got to add the missing file from some where to my Gutsy install, by mounting it and making it so I can write to it. carn't remember how to do that either
[12:01] <sebsebseb> and where to get the missing file?
[12:01] <stdin> Java4Ever: watch the language please
[12:01] <Java4Ever> swith wo windows guys:)
[12:01] <pvl1> mulstisync wont load
[12:01] <TuPari> yes you can use the standard ubuntu cdrom
[12:01] <Asuka4321> ubuntu isn't letting me reach 1440x900 for my screen resolution
[12:01] <Java4Ever> switch to windows
[12:01] <TuPari> use syslinux on the usb drive and copy all files from the cdrom
[12:01] <sebsebseb> you have to mess around with drivers a bit in Windows as well,  depending on what hardware is being run
[12:01] <bascule> Java4Ever: I shouldn't bite but I'm gona, try install X or vista on this laptop from a raw cd, see how far you get, ubuntu picked it all up out-the box
[12:01] <sebsebseb> by the way Java4Ever
[12:02] <stdin> !ot | Java4Ever

[12:02] <sambiase> TuPari: right... would that work with kubuntu as well? i prefer KDE....
[12:02] <TuPari> It should
[12:02] <POVaddct> boojah: (i just tested it from here)
[12:02] <UrbenLegend> Java4Ever: don't go to the DARK SIDE
[12:02] <sambiase> TuPari: how big is a final installation of Kubuntu?
[12:03] <kkathman> hi sambiase :)
[12:03] <TuPari> dunno, but it fits on a cd, doesn't it?
[12:03] <bruenig> sambiase, 2 gigs it the minimum
[12:03] <usser> sambiase: mine takes up 3 gb
[12:03] <bruenig> is*
[12:03] <bulmer> stefano_: mii-tool -F 100baseTx-FD eth0
[12:03] <Asuka4321> nevermind, i think if i actually install ubuntu, it will let me access 1440x900 once it detects my settings, currently i am running off a live cd
[12:03] <quaal> http://lwn.net/Articles/248227/
[12:03] <quaal> bout time
[12:03] <Dead2Fall> hi
[12:03] <bascule> Asuka4321: yeah that'l help get some config files changed anyway :)
[12:03] <bjames> cheers for the help all - I made my own script in the end ;)
[12:03] <pvl1> multisync wont load
[12:03] <bjames> bye
[12:03] <sarthor> I have to 2 line for internet, one is Cable modem, and other is ADSL Modem, both of my ips are dynamic, Can i run these both isps from one linux server to share internet to my lan users, if yes then how??
[12:04] <sambiase> right...thankssss....gotta try....but the thing is that I dont just want to move the files from the CD to the USB and then not be able to save changes to the USB
[12:04] <stefano_> bulmer, but i could go to 1000Mbps... I have the switch and my desktop at Gigabit.
[12:04] <ironfroggy_> What does a stopped state of a printer actually mean?
[12:04] <sausage1337> does anyone know how i can block ad servers by using the hosts and hosts.deny files?
[12:04] <ironfroggy_> does that just mean its waiting for things? it also says accepting jobs.
