[12:04] <ironfroggy_> i just assumed it meant i needed to do something.
[12:05] <Kworth> Is there an partimage command to not include a directory?
[12:05] <bascule> sausage1337: in /etc/hosts say 0.0.0.0      nastyads.com
[12:05] <stefg> sarthor: you want to do 'bonding'... http://www.howtoforge.com/network_bonding_ubuntu_6.10
[12:05] <adnan_> pricechild: i got it all sorted
[12:05] <sausage1337> bascule: thanks, i'll try it. will it take effect immediately?
[12:06] <bascule> should do
[12:06] <Kworth> where are the logs of my cron saved?
[12:06] <Oriez> who can i setup the wi-fi to work on my ubuntu
[12:06] <stefg> !wifi | oriez
[12:06] <ubotu> oriez: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:06] <PriceChild> adnan_, wooo well done :)
[12:06] <kapo> beryl: No composite extension
[12:06] <adnan_> pricechild: it was quite easy actually once the kernel loaded it needed to know the root drive so i changed the entry in grub to "kernel    /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda3" :)
[12:07] <PriceChild> adnan_, ah cool, will try and remember that... but a bit too tired :P
[12:07] <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
[12:07] <bulmer> stefano_: oh..you prolyhave to use ethtool
[12:07] <shadbolt> ok who wants to convert a complete noob
[12:07] <brmassa> Im getting error when i try to access a FAT partition. why?
[12:07] <sausage1337> bascule: lol, it works. pages load so much faster without those annoying flash ads. thanks!
[12:07] <bascule> np
[12:07] <adnan_> pricechild: lol man i still think ubuntu wees all over windows too much i find it amazing a free OS can knock the crap out of big corporate names
[12:07] <Oriez> that not help me, i don't connection on my ubuntu the only thing i can do is download on windows and than run it on ubuntu
[12:08] <nbkr> shadbolt, convert?
[12:08] <bascule> there are lists of /et/hosts folks have made up on line
[12:08] <shadbolt> nbkr can i pm u?
[12:08] <stefano_> bulmer, i looked it up... ethtool nor mii-tool allow gigabit configuration.
[12:08] <nbkr> shadbolt, sure - but if you post your problems here, than everybody can help you. Not just me.
[12:08] <macd> Oriez, hes trying to tell you to read the help page for wifi problems, and if that doesnt help then come back and ask
[12:08] <vader1102> question,, is there a wrist break program out there?
[12:08] <adnan_> pricechild: well i must catch some sleep now, got work in the morning, just thought i'd pop in to say i solved the problem hehe cheers dude speak again
[12:08] <macd> !wifi | Oriez
[12:08] <ubotu> Oriez: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:09] <bulmer> stefano_: it said something it will only display 100mbps even though it is operating at 1gig..check dmesg it says
[12:09] <Kworth> where are the logs of my daily.cron saved?
[12:09] <UnoMomento> Hey, ppls
[12:09] <macd> Kworth, typically that is just in syslog
[12:09] <pyrak> anyone know where i can get the mac keynote in a linux-friendly format?
[12:09] <Oriez> stefg - its too complicated
[12:09] <UnoMomento> try wtite in xterm: apt-get moo
[12:09] <UnoMomento> =)
[12:10] <stefg> Oriez: than you probably have to use the commercial support
[12:10] <pyrak> or perhaps somehow get or emulate the quicktime browser plugin
[12:10] <stefg> !support | Oriez
[12:10] <ubotu> Oriez: the official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org
[12:10] <usser> UnoMomento: heh ))
[12:10] <UnoMomento> :)
[12:11] <nbkr> UnoMomento, See the last sentence of "apt-get help"
[12:11] <UrbenLegend> snocone: haha how is it going so far?
[12:11] <snocone> UrbenLegend: nothing was typed in the dns tab.
[12:11] <UnoMomento> nbkr =)
[12:12] <UrbenLegend> snocone: type in your router's private ip
[12:12] <UrbenLegend> like 192.168.2.1 or something like that
[12:12] <shadbolt> i use dreamweaver and photoshop alot does ubuntu have a good replacement for these or would i end up running that windows mod thingy?
[12:12] <UrbenLegend> then it should get the dns from the router which gets it from isp
[12:12] <snocone> I see
[12:12] <bruenig> shadbolt, vim is good for html
[12:13] <shadbolt> and graphics?
[12:13] <usser> shadbolt: i think gimp can do alot of photoshop things
[12:13] <UrbenLegend> if that doesn't work even try opendns
[12:13] <bascule> bruenig: :) cheeky!
[12:13] <steel_lady> A quetion: we have 512M of ram. I installed ubuntu with the swap of 1G. Now there is an offer and we are thinking of buying 2G of RAM. how will it affect the system considering only 1G of swap?
[12:13] <shadbolt> k thx ubuntu virgin here i go ;)
[12:13] <bruenig> shadbolt, they have gimp but it is not equal to photoshop, you will have to see if it can do all you need
[12:13] <Oriez> there is nothing that you can just run on your machine and the wi-fi will work?
[12:13] <usser> steel_lady: most likely no,
[12:14] <bascule> steel_lady: it will be ok
[12:14] <macd> steel_lady, no effect at all, it may just stop using swap.
[12:14] <cafuego> steel_lady: You won't be able to hibernate, but othrwise it does not matter, it will only make the system (much) faster.
[12:14] <usser> shadbolt: install gimp theres a windows version see how it handles
[12:15] <bascule> in what way is hibernate different from suspend?
[12:15] <steel_lady> uI was even considering the expansion of the swap partition, but from my last experience, I don't believe gparted would want to handle it since it was refusing similar job on another computer
[12:15] <stefg> Oriez: not all wlan adapters are fully linux compatible. some work out of the box, some need some tweaking, some won't work at all. Make sure you investigate the Linux driver situation before purchasing hardware for a Linux OS
[12:16] <delskorch> shadbolt: Don't waste your time with Gimp. The interface will damage your brain.
[12:16] <cafuego> lies
[12:16] <bruenig> delskorch, bout 3 min late
[12:17] <cafuego> You get used to th gimp Ui fast enough, and then you won't need to waste time on photoshop anymore.
[12:17] <atarinox_> are there any vpn client's for linux w/ a gui frontend?
[12:17] <savetheWorld> or use photogimp which tries to map Photshop's menu's into gimp
[12:17] <macd> atarinox_, gppp
[12:17] <cafuego> Certainly not seeing as he'd mostly do web stuff, and thus not need cmyk.
[12:18] <Distro^Junkie> I found my new best friend today
[12:18] <cafuego> atarinox_: network-manager has a couple of vpn plugins.
[12:18] <Oriez> stefg - why? do you know any Wireless-N device that are fully support linux
[12:18] <ciaron> are there any flac players for ubuntu that have an icecast plugin?
[12:18] <Distro^Junkie> its name is virtualbox lol
[12:18] <stefg> !wifi |  Oriez
[12:18] <ubotu> Oriez: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:18] <stefg> read it
[12:19] <programmer324> hello everyone; hey; perl coding question; am i able to files similar to the .h (header files) from c/c++?
[12:19] <Oriez> stefg - it easy if i have any connection to do researches on ubuntu
[12:19] <atarinox_> macd: gppp in the repos doesnt mention anything about vpn...
[12:19] <stefano_> bulmer, Seems the internet was wrong, if i did ethtool eth2 it gave me all the info, and you can set it with ethtool aswell.
[12:20] <stefano_> Is ubuntu configured properly for high network speed transfers?
[12:20] <stefano_> and how do i find out the transfer speed of, say a nfs file transfer
[12:20] <stefg> Oriez: what make and model is your wifi adapter (chipset)?
[12:20] <bruenig> programmer324, take it to #perl
[12:20] <cafuego> stefg: time it
[12:20] <macd> stefano_, use "time"
[12:20] <Oriez> stefg - don't give me this, you have to be pro to understand what they are talking
[12:21] <stefano_> macd, how?
[12:21] <unagi> i can already tell that this is going to be a tough one to fix.........i recently installed nvidia drivers 100.14.something and everytime i restart x it will not start again unless i install the drivers again.....anyone know how to fix this?
[12:21] <macd> stefano_, 'time cp /pathto/copy /path/to/copy/to'
[12:21] <stefano_> macd, but that doesn't display the transfer speeds?
[12:21] <macd> stefano_, you cant do simple math?
[12:21] <cafuego> stefano_: it displays the time used, and you know the size, do the math :-)
[12:21] <stefg> unagi: yes... by uninstalling the nvidia-package and using the official method :-)
[12:22] <mark231> i can't play video files with mplayer
[12:22] <mark231> i get this error message
[12:22] <mark231> http://img180.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=29701_Screenshot-Fatal_error1_122_71lo.jpg
[12:22] <unagi> what method?
[12:22] <stefano_> macd, lol i wanted to see realtime speeds but.. ok
[12:22] <mark231> someone knows how to fix it
[12:22] <mark231> ?
[12:22] <m0u5e> anyone know how to get freeBCD working w/ vista? i'd preferably like to use the vista bootloader rather than grub
[12:22] <stefg> !nvidia | unagi
[12:22] <ubotu> unagi: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:22] <unagi> that guide uses the restricted drivers yes?
[12:22] <stefg> unagi: yes
[12:22] <cafuego> stefg: You can easily hack `cp' to display transfer status.
[12:22] <cafuego> arrgh
[12:22] <cafuego> stefano_: You can easily hack `cp' to display transfer status.
[12:23] <unagi> thats the problem.....restricted drivers causes maya to crash so i need to use the nvidia drivers
[12:23] <anna-[bot] > UBUNTU SUCKS - ubuntu is good only when its workin'!!!!!!!!!!!
[12:23] <stefano_> Will network trafic be slowed down if a pc has 500 Mhz proc?
[12:23] <macd> stefano_, even so, a peak in transfer speed doesnt mean a thing, you dont measure a single point of speed the average over a large chunk makes a good calulation
[12:23] <emeriste> Ubuntu always works.
[12:23] <stefg> unagi: what chipset? (lspci | grep VGA)
[12:23] <cafuego> stefano_: If you use `scp' yes.
[12:23] <ionstorm> anna-[bot] , ubuntu always works
[12:24] <ionstorm> ubuntu has better compatibility than wind0ze
[12:24] <macd> stefano_, now if you want to tune nfs and the tcp stack you could use something like IOzone and use its nfs test suite to fine tune
[12:24] <cafuego> stefano_: via nfs, not necessarily. But you may find the disks aren't fast enough to handle 100Mbit
[12:24] <stefano_> macd, ok... I do get your point ^^
[12:24] <m0u5e> i find it really sad that my buntu laptop is far faster in response time than my vista laptop (which is twice as fast, and has a much better gpu)
[12:24] <unagi> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce Go 7400 (rev a1) stefg
[12:24] <anna-[bot] > emeriste: yha, without the internet
[12:24] <stefano_> cafuego, lets say it is a IBM PC 300GL, this thing is old :D, would it be able to do 1000Mbps?
[12:25] <stefg> unagi: oh yes... geforce go .... known problem child, but not unmanageable
[12:25] <cafuego> m0u5e: I hear that if you unplug vista from the network and don't try to play media files, that might improve <heh>
[12:25] <Agiofws> hi
[12:25] <Agiofws> a freind is using ubuntu getteing this message whet trying yo update   http://rafb.net/p/0GaVDL29.html  can somone take a look ?
[12:25] <cafuego> stefg: No, the drives wouldn't keep up with that sort of data speed.
[12:25] <unagi> so what can i do stefg?
[12:25] <cafuego> stefano_: ^^
[12:25] <macd> stefano_, doubtful
[12:26] <Agiofws> ?
[12:26] <macd> cafuego, isrris autocomplete is horrid ;P
[12:26] <anna-[bot] > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs this is fucking unreadable at all
[12:26] <macd> xchat ftw.
[12:26] <stefano_> macd, Is there a way to test write speeds within the computer itself?
[12:26] <vader1102> cafuego, awesome job on the bcm wireless stuff!!
[12:26] <cafuego> stefano_: You're looking at ~ 100Mb/sec, which is fater than what standard SATA2 can read, let alone write.
[12:26] <m0u5e> cafuego: lol isnt that quaint? i happen to be doing both :/
[12:26] <macd> stefano_, yes, 'man hdparm'
[12:26] <davidthedrake> Agiofws, do you have any other update managers open (Synaptic Package Manager, Add/Remove... etc.)
[12:26] <firecraft> hi is it possible to use my dedicated box with huge bandwidth to download files to my localbox with ssh tunneling, i'm not sure just asking.
[12:26] <macd> cafuego, dont forget network transfer is Mb disk is in MB
[12:26] <cafuego> m0u5e: If you just let it sit there and don' touch it, it'll be quite fast ;-)
[12:26] <macd> stupid hardware manufacturers
[12:27] <m0u5e> cafuego: if it werent for the fact that its a lot easier in vista to do things, i'd totally install buntu on my new top
[12:27] <cafuego> macd: yup
[12:27] <zef> cant get aptitude to find freenx, have followed this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX, my system is ubuntu 7.04 on amd64, how do i get freenx?
[12:27] <stdin> Agiofws: tell them to make sure synaptic is closed and to run "sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[12:27] <Agiofws> davidthedrake,  she will take allok now
[12:27] <macd> nvm, you meant 100Mb for gig ethernet, I misread ;P
[12:27] <davidthedrake> Agiofws, I seem to recall getting a similar message when I had one open in the background.
[12:27] <m0u5e> cafuego: i just wont have time to play with stuff once school starts, so i just have to hunker down untilt  his vista storm blows over :/
[12:27] <anna-[bot] > GO FUCK YOUR SELVES
[12:27] <stefano_> macd, If i get a faster drive,... like my desktops at 7200 rpm... I think the one in the server box is at 7200 too.
[12:27] <cafuego> anna-[bot] : So you don't want help, you just want to troll?
[12:28] <stefano_> macd, will it then be motherboard bus speeds limit?
[12:28] <Erich85> Hello all.  I'm trying to get Netbeans to work with Feisty Fawn, but the "License Agreement" window that first opens is empty and I can't proceed further.
[12:28] <unagi> stefg?
[12:28] <stefg> unagi: try sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[12:28] <cafuego> stefano_: You'll get maybe 15MB/sec write speed
[12:28] <cafuego> stefano_: Nowhere *near* 100MB
[12:28] <Agiofws> stdin,  what will that do
[12:28] <unagi> still restricted eh?
[12:28] <stefano_> cafuego, lol what kind of hard drive would i need to use up a 1000 connection?
[12:28] <unagi> ok ill give it a try and see if maya still crashes
[12:29] <cafuego> stefano_: If you need 1Gbit write speed, you'll be looking at an iscsi san or something <heh>
[12:29] <m0u5e> cafuego: how's gnome nowadays? i switched to xubuntu a while ago since it was ridiculously slow on my laptop... has it gotton any faster? :/
[12:29] <cafuego> m0u5e: It's never been slow for me; but I do have a reasonable amount of ram.
[12:29] <m0u5e> anyone here got SYNCTOY working with wine?
[12:29] <m0u5e> cafuego: hmm yeah :(
[12:29] <stdin> Agiofws: that should fix that error and make sure all the packages that may be partially installed are configured correctly
[12:29] <stefano_> cafuego, are those expensive hdds? I have a very fast proc on my destop. Doesn't that help?
[12:29] <m0u5e> cafuego: also, i like the xfce4-goodies/plugins better :D
[12:29] <cafuego> vader1102: thankyou, you're welcome :-)
[12:29] <unagi> anyone else think that what pc companies are doing to m ake more money off common components should be illegal?
[12:30] <CrazyTB> What's the easiest way to enable 2 CPUs on a brand-new ubuntu-server running on AMD x2?
[12:30] <m0u5e> cafuego: i'm sorry to say, but the gnome weather-plugin completely blows
[12:30] <Erich85> I'm trying to get Netbeans to work with Feisty Fawn, but the "License Agreement" window that first opens is empty and I can't proceed further.  Can someone help me?
[12:30] <stefano_> cafuego, i have a sata hdd...
[12:30] <unagi> 400 bucks for a hard drive??
[12:30] <ironfroggy_> the cups docs say i can start and stop a printer with the enable and disable commands but they seem completely unrelated
[12:30] <ubuntu> Ok, i'm can someone help with the wi-fi setting
[12:30] <cafuego> CrazyTB: Install the -generic kernel, which it should already have.
[12:30] <ubuntu> Ok, i'm stuipd, can someone help with the wi-fi setting
[12:30] <m0u5e> ubuntu: nm-applet should be auto configing your wifi? :)
[12:30] <unagi> -wonders what CrazyTB means by enable 2 cpus
[12:30] <cafuego> stefano_: You'll want hardware raid, decent controller...
[12:30] <UrbenLegend> erich85: is it just the license text box
[12:30] <m0u5e> ubuntu: whats wrong with it?
[12:31] <hanasaki> can someone help and telnet to my IP on port 52525 and let me know what they get?  ???
[12:31] <cafuego> stefano_: Should approximate $lots
[12:31] <stefano_> cafuego, mobo has nvidia nforce 590, i don't have raid set up...
[12:31] <atarinox_> can somebody explain this step of a tutorial for me...."Place your .pcf configuration files in /etc/opt/cisco-vpnclient/Profiles/"...where would I find my .pcf config files?
[12:31] <ubuntu> help is not to say:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs go figure
[12:31] <cafuego> stefano_: No, *Actual* raid, not nvraid.
[12:31] <Erich85> UrbenLegend: Though it shows as empty for me, and when I close it, nothing else comes up
[12:31] <unagi> whats ur ip hanasaki
[12:31] <muszek> hi... is  there any way to discover what's device name (i.e. hda) of the disks I have plugged in?  I need to do it in cli (doing it over ssh).
[12:31] <m0u5e> ubuntu: ?
[12:31] <hanasaki> 69.76.135.37 unagi
[12:31] <UrbenLegend> Erich85 does anything else show up like buttons or anything like that or is the WHOLE WINDOW blank?
[12:31] <CrazyTB> cafuego, I'm going to boot with vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic
[12:31] <emosamurai> Heya. I'm using mplayer, and whenever I try to open the DVD using it, the video window expands and then contracts. Why is that?
[12:32] <UrbenLegend> Erich85 are you running compiz or beryl
[12:32] <cafuego> CrazyTB: that should see both cores, check /proc/cpuinfo
[12:32] <stefano_> cafuego, oh. lol then im fed, spent some money upgrading to 1gb LAN :(
[12:32] <CrazyTB> unagi, currently, with -server kernel, /proc/cpuinfo lists only one CPU
[12:32] <unagi> could not resolve 69.76.135.37:52525/telnet: Name or service not known
[12:32] <stefano_> cafuego, what about games?
[12:32] <UrbenLegend> Erich85 cuz the java re that comes with ubuntu doesn't work well with composited window managers
[12:32] <m0u5e> cafuego: btw, bcm43xx-fwcutter in your repos will no longer get apsta.o (the link is 404)
[12:32] <cafuego> stefano_: That's OK, see... nwo at least the lan will *not* be a bottleneck, ever.
[12:32] <hanasaki> unagi:  its "telnet 69.76.135.37 52525"
[12:33] <cafuego> m0u5e: That's not my package <heh>
[12:33] <m0u5e> cafuego: your 4300 firmware works though :)
[12:33] <Erich85> UrbenLegend: So, I should disable all my fancypants things to get it to run?  No Beryl?
[12:33] <m0u5e> cafuego: oh :X
[12:33] <UrbenLegend> yes
[12:33] <stefano_> cafuego, ^^, true. This mobo can have simultaneus FD 2 NICs
[12:33] <cafuego> The bcm43xx-firmware is, the -cutter is not.
[12:33] <UrbenLegend> Erich85 cuz its something to do with the java run time
[12:33] <UrbenLegend> erich85 the latest jre and latest compiz fusion fix this problem
[12:33] <ubuntu> You're all fuckers, motherfuckers. you just ignoring me. You know what is the problem of the Ubuntu project? IT'S THE PEOPLE.
[12:33] <m0u5e> wow vista defrag fails... any recommendations on what i can do to defrag so i can SHRINK my partition?
[12:34] <unagi> says im connected
[12:34] <Erich85> UrbenLegend: How different is the new Compiz Fusion to Beryl?
[12:34] <m0u5e> ubuntu: stop trolling, ive been talking to you for the past 10 minutes :/
[12:34] <unagi> wow ubuntu has issues
[12:34] <cafuego> !ohmy | ubuntu
[12:34] <emosamurai> Grrr... How do mPlayer open DVD?
[12:34] <ubotu> ubuntu: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:34] <unagi> nothing is wrong with ubuntu or the people
[12:34] <unagi> you need the psycho distro of linux
[12:34] <UrbenLegend> erich85: pretty similar in terms of configuration you'll have a blast
[12:34] <m0u5e> can ubuntu not see my replies?
[12:34] <unagi> youd fit right in
[12:34] <CrazyTB> cafuego, do you know where I can find the differences between -server and -generic?
[12:34] <hanasaki> unagi:  please paste the output in a private IM to me?
[12:34] <UrbenLegend> snocone: how is it?
[12:34] <ubuntu> ubotu shut up
[12:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about shut up - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:34] <UrbenLegend> LOL
[12:35] <stefano_> cafuego, zomg... i think i have witnessed a fluke. 170 MBs in 3 seconds.
[12:35] <unagi> Trying 69.76.135.37...
[12:35] <unagi> Connected to 69.76.135.37.
[12:35] <unagi> Escape character is '^] '.
[12:35] <cafuego> stefano_: You could probably set up raid0+1, that should help write speed somewhat... but you'll be buying disks then.
[12:35] <kkathman> lol
[12:35] <unagi> erm
[12:35] <stefano_> cafuego, i will try again.
[12:35] <unagi> -laughing at ubuntu
[12:35] <emosamurai> unagi, was that directed at me?
[12:35] <unagi> was what directed at you
[12:35] <cafuego> stefano_: Yeah, if that fits in ram; it won't be all written to disk yet, I'd say.
[12:35] <emosamurai> The psycho distro of Linux.
[12:35] <snocone> UrbenLegend: whenever anything is in either the domain field or the dns ip field, firefox spins forever instead of what it was doing before, just saying it couldn't connect
[12:35] <zef> cant get aptitude to find freenx, have followed this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX, my system is ubuntu 7.04 on amd64, how do i get freenx?
[12:35] <unagi> stefg are you still here?
[12:36] <cafuego> oh ffs
[12:36] <cafuego> bloody children
[12:37] <troubled> :/
[12:37] <m0u5e> rofl?
[12:37] <m0u5e> wtf was that?
[12:37] <muszek> hi... my father (instructed over the phone...) plugged in a second hard drive (partitioned and formatted, used before) into his computer.  I ssh'ed to it, but can't mount anything (tried hda1, hdb1, hdc1, hdd1, sda1, sdb1, sdc1 and sdd1).  is there any way to find out what's going on?
[12:37] <m0u5e> we're under attack! MAN THE STATIONS
[12:37] <cafuego> At least it's nice & quiet eh
[12:37] <LadyNikon> meh
[12:37] <snocone> it's harpoons, dammit
[12:37] <m0u5e> did anyone else just get dcc spanned?
[12:37] <snocone> MAN THE HARPOONS
[12:37] <m0u5e> *spammed
[12:37] <LadyNikon> m0u5e: yes welcome to freenode
[12:37] <giggety> FUCK YEAH SEAKING
[12:37] <cafuego> m0u5e: Yeh, everyone did.
[12:37] <m0u5e> lol
[12:37] <m0u5e> good lord no
[12:37] <recon> where'd that come from?
[12:37] <cafuego> m0u5e: people with non-crap client didn't disconnect ;-)
[12:37] <m0u5e> lol :D
[12:38] <stefg> !dcc
[12:38] <ubotu> There are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit
[12:38] <AndrewB> !laguage " giggety
[12:38] <cafuego> muszek: `dmesg' to see if it was detected.
[12:38] <AndrewB> !laguage | giggety
[12:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about laguage - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:38] <snocone> UrbenLegend: ok, so I think I put the wrong things in the dns tab
[12:38] <giggety> AndrewB, fail
[12:38] <AndrewB> Eh.. don't swear.
[12:38] <SynchroM> anyone know of a live ubuntu CD that has a netboot server for installing on machines with no CD/floppy?
[12:38] <muszek> cafuego: dmesg | grep WHAT HERE?
[12:38] <m0u5e> someone get rid of the internet hate machine plz.
[12:38] <LadyNikon> lol@dcc trigger
[12:38] <UrbenLegend> snocone: what did you put?
[12:38] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[12:38] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:38] <cafuego> muszek: dmesg | less -> use eyeballs
[12:38] <LadyNikon> ...
[12:39] <snocone> UrbenLegend: I thought I put my router's ip...
[12:39] <muszek> cafuego: what should my eyeballs look for?
[12:39] <SynchroM> rather than trying to set up dhcp/tftp every time
[12:39] <m0u5e> hmm how do you configure flood filters in xchat-gnome?
[12:39] <cafuego> muszek: The drive you sent your dad ;-)
[12:39] <UrbenLegend> snocone: what is your router's ip?
[12:39] <muszek> cafuego: thanks :)
[12:39] <snocone> UrbenLegend: 216.67.26.254
[12:39] <clever> my client flooded out:S
[12:39] <UrbenLegend> snocone: are you sure that's not your public ip?
[12:40] <snocone> no, that's 216.67.26.203
[12:40] <stefano_> lol... so we were hacked?
[12:40] <manolo> hello
[12:40] <m0u5e> stefano_: ?
[12:40] <casio_> how can i mount a hfsplus partition with write permissions ?
[12:40] <snocone> UrbenLegend: I... think? should I try 10.0.1.1?
[12:40] <UrbenLegend> snocone: private ips should be something like 192....
[12:40] <cafuego> No, an angry child did "something funny"
[12:40] <PriceChild> I am about to set a number of bans to help people fix their routers... one moment
[12:40] <snocone> UrbenLegend: well shit
[12:40] <jvai> wassup channel
[12:40] <snocone> where would I find that
[12:41] <UrbenLegend> snocone: you're on your mac right?
[12:41] <snocone> yeah
[12:41] <UrbenLegend> snocone: try finding your private ip from there
[12:41] <stefano_> Is hacking hard?
[12:41] <hanasaki> dammit spammers
[12:41] <UrbenLegend> snocone: not familiar with mac but i 'll google
[12:41] <Netham45> was it someone in here who sent those DCC requests?
[12:41] <nbkr> stefano_, depends on how you define "hacking"
[12:41] <stefano_> I am at uni and i want to connect to some wireless hubs without passwords.
[12:41] <tomaw> Netham45: here and a few other places
[12:41] <jobalo> 
[12:41] <stefano_> I mean, they have passwords.
[12:41] <Netham45> tomaw, Ok
[12:41] <Netham45> I was just wondering
[12:42] <jobalo> 
[12:42] <Netham45> it flooded my client and my client couldn't handle it.
[12:42] <Netham45> and died
[12:42] <P_Kable> !wiki ssh
[12:42] <kingKonqueror> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ssh
[12:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wiki ssh - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:42] <stefano_> Does Ubuntu-Server edition run faster that Ubuntu-Desktop edition?
[12:42] <PriceChild> another set coming.... sorry :)
[12:42] <clever> dont know who caused that spamage
[12:43] <Netham45> don't ban me, it wasn't my router.
[12:43] <eyeballzz2> i'm having trouble getting an uncorrupted copy of ubuntu. i go to the library (the only place i can access broadband) dl the iso to my flash drive and transfer that to a windows computer at home. is this the reason for corruption?
[12:43] <air0day> When I make a desktop shortcut to an .sh file (which runs fine from commandline), it won't run.  Any ideas why?
[12:43] <clever> my crappy client didnt show the source
[12:43] <nbkr> stefano_, Not really - Desktop and Server are the same, exept that server doesn't install the Gui by default.
[12:43] <Netham45> iserver or something
[12:43] <vader1102> When is the next LTS version due out?
[12:43] <kitche> vader1102, 08.04 or so
[12:43] <PriceChild> vader1102, april
[12:43] <BigToe7000> !vnc
[12:43] <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
[12:43] <vader1102> awesome guys thanx........
[12:43] <Netham45> so when the next LTS version comes out, is 6.06 offically dead?
[12:44] <stefano_> nbkr, I have some very slow hardware, Proc @ 500mhz, small hdd 10gb. Is there an ubuntu that would be real fast and small?
[12:44] <PriceChild> Netham45, no, dapper's supported till 2011 ont he server
[12:44] <UrbenLegend> snocone: what router do you have?
[12:44] <Netham45> ah, ok
[12:44] <PriceChild> Netham45, 2008 on desktop
[12:44] <Netham45> ok
[12:44] <nbkr> stefano_, Maybe xubuntu is a lite bit faster as it doesn't use heavy weighted Gnome or KDE.
[12:44] <snocone> UrbenLegend: airport express
[12:44] <vader1102> I don't like to use these 6 month ones as I support clients on this machine and yeah switching OS's every 3-6 months is hard on the mind and soul lol
[12:44] <eyeballzz2> so... anyone else delt with file corruption by usb xfer
[12:44] <Netham45> how long are Edgy/Feisty/Gutsy supported for?
[12:44] <stefano_> nbkr, i just want console, tty's.
[12:45] <air0day> What's weird is that it runs from command line just fine.  Any ideas?
[12:45] <qwstar> in evolution, is there a faster way to enter dates besides the whole 9/5/2007? i'd like just to be enter 'thursday' or 'tomorrow' and have it calculate the correct date for me
[12:45] <nbkr> stefano_, then use the server edition. I doesn't install a gui.
[12:45] <jvai> is xfce a WM or DE?
[12:45] <unagi> can anyone tell me how to connect to this channel from the virtual terminal?
[12:45] <kitche> jvai, DE
[12:45] <tschaka> air0day do u exec it with sh NAME in the shortcut?
[12:46] <jvai> ooooo ty
[12:46] <AndrewB> unagi: will need a client like irssi
[12:46] <UrbenLegend> snocone: i dunno it could be the 10.0. what ever
[12:46] <air0day> no, it just points right to the sh file.. what should i make the command?
[12:46] <tschaka> sh FILE.sh i guess
[12:46] <UrbenLegend> snocone: if not you can always try the opendns dns servers
[12:46] <Atlantiz> hey guys i deleted my panel the one at the top how do i get it back
[12:46] <unagi> son of a
[12:46] <air0day> that doesn't work either
[12:46] <snocone> UrbenLegend: yeah, I did (opendns, that is). but it didn't seem to work
[12:46] <unagi> im gettign an 'opengl not configured properly'
[12:46] <unagi> how do i fix?
[12:46] <snocone> i'll try 10.0.1.1 now
[12:47] <tschaka> air0day gimme a sec, i'll try :P
[12:47] <lupin> Hi im on the Tribe 5 of Gutsy and tried to install the nvidia-glx from restricted manager and it my X wont start says something about libwdm or something
[12:47] <Zemus> How do I switch from metacity to compiz fusion without using the beryl-manager? There's a simply command you can access from alt + f2 that I can't remember. I'm using gnome. Any and all help is appreciated.
[12:47] <air0day> thanks
[12:47] <MrMarten> Can someone help with installing a orbicam on my acer aspire 5100
[12:47] <stdin> lupin: gutsy support in #ubuntu+1
[12:47] <lupin> ty stdin
[12:47] <unagi> man this is frustrating
[12:47] <Atlantiz> hey guys i deleted my panel...the whole program list and the top of the desktop...is there a way to get it back?
[12:47] <Fathefner> how do i add a printer
[12:47] <unagi> ive totally screwed up my ubuntu
[12:47] <Fathefner> thats on the network
[12:47] <Fathefner> how do i add a printer thats on the network?
[12:48] <tschaka> air0day oops, it works here :o
[12:48] <m0u5e> unagi: what did you do?
[12:48] <air0day> what the hell
[12:48] <tschaka> did u try different sh files?
[12:48] <m0u5e> unagi: unless you chmown sudo, you should be fine xP
[12:48] <air0day> well i need to run this specific .sh file
[12:48] <air0day> and it runs from command line without a problem
[12:48] <tschaka> with ./ or with sh?
[12:49] <stefano_> 1 minute transfering 170 MBs is not bad, right?
[12:49] <air0day> either way works from command line
[12:49] <muszek> cafuego: found a problem... my father was just told that plugging the power to the disk is recommended :)
[12:49] <jvai> Fathefner, use the printer's ip as "host"
[12:49] <tschaka> create a linking file? :D with cd DIR and ./FILE.sh in it.
[12:49] <cafuego> muszek: <heh>
[12:49] <Fathefner> i dont know that "host" ip
[12:50] <qwstar> is there any way to make evolution's date parsing a little less strict..at least so that i can enter "9/6" instead of "9/6/2007" all the time
[12:50] <tatters> been trying to run apt-cache  setup the server machine ok but client is responding with error  500 Can't connect to ubuntu:80 (Bad hostname 'ubuntu')
[12:50] <cafuego> stefano_: it's a lot longer than I put up with from my 100mbit network.
[12:50] <air0day> ill try it
[12:50] <jvai> if it is a network'd printer, just go to the printer, print out the configuration
[12:50] <stefano_> cafuego... lol
[12:51] <stefano_> cafuego, did you tweak your settings?
[12:51] <tschaka> air0day could also be u set the paths wrong, or you need to cd into the directory first, before executing the file, especially when it depends on stuff in the same directory.
[12:51] <cafuego> stefano_: Still using nfs? Tweak the rsize and wsize mount options to say 32Kbit
[12:51] <stefano_> cafuego, what is the math for size and time, to get the speed?
[12:51] <air0day> well i can run it from another directory by giving the full path
[12:51] <air0day> no problem
[12:51] <cafuego> stefano_: Yes, mine run at 8192
[12:51] <Zemus> !resolution
[12:51] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:51] <cafuego> stefano_: speed is M/sec -> size divided by time
[12:52] <tschaka> mkay
[12:52] <ironfroggy_> When the cups local site asks me for a username and password, what does it want?
[12:52] <ironfroggy_> as in, what user?
[12:52] <cafuego> stefano_: On Gb, try wsize=32768,rsize=32768
[12:52] <stefano_> cafuego, ok... So the settings should only be applied to my side?
[12:53] <cafuego> stefano_: On the client side, yes
[12:53] <cafuego> stefano_: You *do* have a Gbit switch, right and decent cat5?
[12:53] <stvray> There is an exploit that would force executable data into the operating system when a jpeg is viewed...  Can some please tell me where it can be found ?
[12:53] <unagi> i really need help with nvidia drivers if anyone can.............ive crippled my system
[12:54] <stefano_> cafuego, i have a Dlink gigabit switch and cat5 with all the pins
[12:54] <cafuego> cat5E?
[12:54] <Fulk> pphp
[12:54] <jvai> cat5 = ethernet cable
[12:54] <cafuego> if th cable isn't up to scratch, you could lose a lot of speed
[12:55] <cafuego> But I suppose that should then be listed as errors in `ifconfig'
[12:55] <snocone> ah, there you are
[12:55] <UrbenLegend> okay
[12:55] <UrbenLegend> snocone: so how did it go?
[12:55] <snocone> so 10.0.1.1 didn't work
[12:55] <UrbenLegend> agh
[12:56] <stefano_> cafuego, how do i specify these mounting options... i dont want to have fstab auto mounting.
[12:56] <snocone> could what bulmer was saying about the routing table be a problem?
[12:56] <emosamurai> Hey. When I'm in the terminal or emacs and I hit the end of the terminal and hit right or down, then my computer beeps. How do I turn it off?
[12:56] <jvai> lol
[12:56] <cafuego> stefano_: Then add 'noauto' in fstab too :-)
[12:56] <ironfroggy_> the best documentation i could find just tells me to give the "correct username and password" to cups, but how am i supposed to know what that is?
[12:56] <UrbenLegend> snocone: i dunno i didn't have to change anything when i configured mine
[12:56] <kitche> emosamurai, either rmmod pcspkr or set something in your .bashrc which I know but escapes me right now :)
[12:56] <snocone> UrbenLegend: is there anything you did that I haven't done?
[12:57] <unagi> how do i see what version nvidia driver im using
[12:57] <UrbenLegend> snocone: your bcm43xx mdule starts up everytime you boot right? you don't have to modprobe it everytime?
[12:57] <cellofellow> emosamurai: for some reason some terminals, like screen terminals, don't beep.
[12:57] <snocone> I don't know...?
[12:57] <cafuego> unagi: dpkg -l nvidia-glx
[12:57] <cellofellow> lsmod | grep dcm
[12:57] <emosamurai> YES THANKYOU!!!!! MUHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA!
[12:58] <snocone> UrbenLegend: it must. I'm connected to our network
[12:58] <unagi> NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org driver means restricted right?
[12:58] <UrbenLegend> snocone: and the router config works right?
[12:58] <cellofellow> unagi: yes
[12:58] <stefano_> cafuego, aren't the 8196 default settings?
[12:58] <snocone> I don't know. where is the router config?
[12:59] <jvai> is there a terminl command that gives me a "follow" while i'm in the GUI? & gives me the output as i use the mouse?
[12:59] <cafuego> stefano_: These days, perhaps... I haven' checked the manpage <heh>
[12:59] <din> is there a frame buffer splash for ubuntu?
[12:59] <usser> so im running vista rediness advisor on my ubuntu machine ))) lets see how it works out
[12:59] <unagi> how do i uninstall that restricted driver
[12:59] <UrbenLegend> you type in your router's private ip and it should lead to a configuration page
[12:59] <cafuego> manpage says 4096 is the default
[12:59] <snocone> type it in where?
[12:59] <UrbenLegend> also try this ip 208.67.219.137
[12:59] <UrbenLegend> into your browser
[12:59] <cellofellow> din: usplash, the default splash, uses the framebuffer if it's there.
[01:00] <snocone> that's opendns, right?
[01:00] <snocone> I was using .222.222 and .220.220
[01:00] <ironfroggy_> What group do i need to be in to use the administrative features of the cups web interface?
[01:00] <UrbenLegend> well that was google's ip
[01:00] <UrbenLegend> from ping
[01:00] <kyncani> jvai: that gives you a "follow" ? (whazzat)
[01:00] <cafuego> stefano_: Oh, actually, I'm using 32768 on the nfsv3 server, the 8192 is with the crusty nfsv2 nas.
[01:00] <din> cellofellow: that's the bootup screen right? i want a background for my console.
[01:01] <stefano_> oh
[01:01] <cellofellow> oh, umm
[01:01] <UrbenLegend> snocone: cuz if i am right you should be able to access websites by ip
[01:01] <kitche> emosamurai, this will tell you how to completely disable that beep for everything http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-to-linux-disable-or-turn-off-beep-sound-for-terminal/
[01:01] <jvai> kyncani, well, like as i use the gui, a shell, that would give me output as if i used the terminal,
[01:01] <din> i just didn't wante to have to go through the process of recompiling my kernel
[01:01] <cellofellow> din: i've never looked into that. I've seen some distros like DreamLinux that have that built in, but I always thought it was weird.
[01:01] <jvai> as a way to learn the comands
[01:01] <nickrud> ironfroggy_: iirc lpadmin
[01:02] <jvai> oktanouc, lke if i clicked on firefox, the terminal would show me the command for that
[01:03] <ironfroggy_> nickrud: so any idea why giving the username and password of a user in the lpadmin group isnt be accepted?
[01:03] <snocone> ok, be back soon
[01:04] <din> cellofellow: i used it on gentoo. i suppose there's no easy way to do it. heh
[01:04] <cellofellow> there may be, I just don't know. Keep looking. Who am I?
[01:04] <nickrud> ironfroggy_: then the other alternative is admin .  used to be one had to adduser cupsys shadow to use the web panel, but I haven't looked closely the last couple releases
[01:04] <kyncani> jvai: there is no command when you click on firefox, it's just an x event picked up and interpreted by firefox. Kde applications can be sent commands with dcop though, but it's specific to kde apps and they won't have a dcop interface to everything.
[01:05] <din> eh, fbsplash looks promising, i just wanted to apt-get install bootsplash or something. :)
[01:05] <nownott> not having any luck in #linux, im trying to install hostap on my box and i cant seem to figure out how to do it
[01:06] <tatters> been trying to run apt-cache  setup the server machine ok but client is responding with error  500 Can't connect to ubuntu:80 (Bad hostname 'ubuntu') the only thing I cant find anything like that error in google
[01:06] <ironfroggy_> nickrud: well this isnt a recent install, so what is that command to do?
[01:06] <ironfroggy_> i mean, i get that it adds cupsys to shadow group, but hows that fix this?
[01:06] <ironfroggy_> should i be using the cupsys user?
[01:06] <jvai> oooo kyncani nothing for gnome like dcop?
[01:06] <nickrud> ironfroggy_: sudo adduser cupsys shadow ; sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart. It allowed password access to the webpanel
[01:07] <kyncani> jvai: don't think so
[01:07] <nickrud> ironfroggy_: true thru dapper I think
[01:07] <jvai> aaaw, i want to learn the shell
[01:07] <jvai> lika pro..
[01:07] <Ahmed-Bahaa> hello people i get a strange error
[01:07] <Ahmed-Bahaa> when i press caps lock
[01:07] <cafuego> ^a^e a
[01:08] <kyncani> jvai: well, use the shell more then and X apps less
[01:08] <jvai> lke if i dragged a folder into another, a command that would follow that, & give me that output, if i were to do it in the sell
[01:08] <cafuego> just 'mv'
[01:08] <Xadloki> Hi, could anyone help a little ? I've been trying to share a folder from ubuntu with a mac on my local network and I gotten to the point where I can browse the mac using ftp but I can't see a shared folder that I have in Ubuntu on the mac, I do see a server on the mac network, but there's no option to connect to it
[01:08] <kyncani> jvai: when you drag a folder into another, nautilus does not use shell commands.
[01:09] <jvai> aaaw ok
[01:09] <CluelessFred> anybody have experience with unstable wireless connections here?
[01:09] <Ahmed-Bahaa> when i press caps lock i get this error: An error occurred while loading or saving configuration information for gnome-settings-daemon. Some of your configuration settings may not work properly.
[01:10] <Ahmed-Bahaa> ??
[01:10] <Ahmed-Bahaa> Please !
[01:10] <ironfroggy_> nickrud: alright, thanks! im one step closer.
[01:10] <barz|> hi. can i search for a certain pattern inside a file when i'm reading that file using the less program?
[01:10] <ironfroggy_> so... what does it mean now for the job itself, not the printer, to be stopped? and how i can unstop it?
[01:10] <nickrud> ironfroggy_: what version are you using
[01:10] <Ahmed-Bahaa> :-/
[01:10] <ironfroggy_> dapper
[01:10] <unique_> dose anyone know of a good gui to copy copy protected cds?

[01:15] <Liott> cafuego - where can i discover how to upgrade from 6.06 to 7.04?
[01:15] <Ahmed-Bahaa> nickrud:  ok i will try this
[01:15] <P235> You can only upgrade 6.10 to 7.04
[01:15] <UrbenLegend> snocone: did you try accessing your router's config page fomr linux?
[01:15] <P235> 6.06 you'll have to get a disc, I believe
[01:16] <snocone> UrbenLegend: yeah, it didn't work
[01:16] <snocone> that is, assuming I have the correct internal ip
[01:16] <Xadloki> anyone care to help me solve this mac to ubuntu sharing thing ?
[01:16] <nickrud> Ahmed-Bahaa: no promises, but if that's cleared, then possibly you bound the wrong thing to the capslock key somewhen
[01:16] <snocone> I'll go look for the book that came with it
[01:16] <hanasaki> what is a good package that will update dyndns with mulitple hosts and mx?

[01:17] <jvai> snocone, are u on a wifi network? & is it locked? tat may be an issue
[01:17] <unagi> how do i reset xorg.conf?
[01:17] <CluelessFred> okay, my wireless card only seems to work sporadically.  Where do I start looking?
[01:17] <annihilus> also glxgears is not smooth
[01:17] <P235> Liott, have you tried checking the disc for errors?

[01:17] <sarthor> Hi, by starting squid, i am getting error in my log messegs "Squid Parent: child process 24536 exited due to signal 6", how to trace the error?
[01:17] <Liott> p235 - is there a utility for that in 6.06?
[01:17] <PriceChild> MetCom, right click the panel, add to panel, then choose the battery meter
[01:18] <nickrud> larson9999: when you consider what came for about 20 years before unforgiven, another 15 years seems not to long

[01:22] <sarthor> My squid is not running, due to this i am unable to do some googleing, i am new to linux, so please help me to start my squid,
[01:22] <Some_Person> WikiBoxes on Wikipedia
[01:22] <Liott> p235 - no, it offers the screen where i can pick from kernal builds and memory tests.
[01:22] <sarthor>  "Squid Parent: child process 24536 exited due to signal 6", how to trace the error?
[01:22] <Xadloki> ok... what would be the best and easiest way to share one folder between 2 computers simultaneously ? I've tried ethernet but it's just not working. please I need advise
[01:22] <kitche> sarthor, easy squid process 24536 errored out
[01:23] <UrbenLegend> snocone: type in ifconfig in the console
[01:23] <jvai> sarthor, insatll firestarter firewall, to help config iptables, i had the same issue
[01:23] <nickrud> larson9999: eh )
[01:23] <Liott> p235 - will i need to upgrade to 6.10 first?
[01:23] <edz> i have an ati x1600, i installed the drivers to it, and i went to the restricted devices manager and clicked on it and it says its in use but when i do fglrxinfo its still giving me the mesa drivers instead of the ati drivers
[01:24] <CluelessFred> bah!  !@#$%^&* wireless...
[01:24] <sarthor> jvai, it was running be some changes in squid, but i dont know where i have take mistake in squid conf. i have removed the squid, but still the prob after reinstalling
[01:24] <snocone> UrbenLegend: hmm, I just noticed that I have the option of choosing between a 10.0., a 172.16., or a 192.168. internal ip
[01:24] <usser> edz: did u restart x server?
[01:24] <edz> yeah
[01:24] <Distro^Junkie> Liott: what version of ubuntu are you running ?
[01:24] <kitche> sarthor, Signal 6 is SIGABRT A process dying with this signal is usually due to it calling the abort(3) function. That generally indicates that the process itself has found that some essential pre-requisite for correct function is not available and voluntarily killing itself, rather than the process being killed by the kernel because it ran over resource limits or looked at memory addresses funny or something.
[01:24] <Liott> distro - 7.04
[01:24] <saikobee> So on this Ubuntu machine I installed kubuntu-desktop
[01:24] <saikobee> And now it's all messed up
[01:24] <saikobee> kdm won't start
[01:24] <saikobee> and /etc/init.d/gdm start
[01:24] <UrbenLegend> snocone: but your router should only be one of those
[01:24] <nickrud> Ahmed-Bahaa: you'd scrolled off when I came back; unusual errors are interesting ;)
[01:24] <P235> Distro^Junkie, Liott is running 6.06 and is trying to upgrade to 7.04
[01:24] <saikobee> complains gdm isn't the default
[01:25] <usser> edz: hm do this cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep fglrx
[01:25] <kitche> sarthor, so squid child process is killing itself
[01:25] <saikobee> how does one fix this?
[01:25] <evilnone> im new to ubuntu how do i change the default theme in ubuntu?
[01:25] <usser> edz: in console, and tell me what it says
[01:25] <edz> edz@endz:~$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep fglrx
[01:25] <edz>         Driver      "fglrx"

[01:25] <nickrud> evilnone: system->preferences->themes
[01:25] <jvai> sarthor,  i just use the defaut, it defaults to localhost, 127.0.0.1 i think it is
[01:25] <snocone> UrbenLegend: I know, this is in my router's configuration (in osx). I can choose. I'm choosing 192 for simplicity
[01:25] <Distro^Junkie> gksu "update-manager -c" < Liott run this command in terminal
[01:26] <UrbenLegend> snocone: k what's the full ip though?
[01:26] <snocone> 192.168.1.1
[01:26] <UrbenLegend> okay
[01:26] <jvai> router
[01:26] <sarthor> letme reinstall .. and will try to run the default
[01:26] <usser> edz: hm
[01:26] <Distro^Junkie> if it says that you are up to date then refresh the update manager
[01:26] <UrbenLegend> snocone: then put that ip into the dns tab in your network preferences
[01:26] <unagi> how do i remove nvidia 100.14.11
[01:26] <ubuntu09> aplications menu doesnt open. anybody?
[01:27] <Liott> Distro^Junkie - it simply tells me that my system is up to date
[01:27] <jvai> ok sarthor
[01:27] <Distro^Junkie> then you should get a upgrade button
[01:27] <edz> any ideas?
[01:27] <Distro^Junkie> Liott: try refreshing the update manager
[01:27] <Liott> Distro^Junkie - no button
[01:27] <usser> edz: hm
[01:27] <ubuntu09> applications menu doesnt open. anybody?
[01:27] <Distro^Junkie> hmmm
[01:28] <rob_p> sarthor: check your squid logfiles, cache.log, etc. for other clues too.
[01:28] <Liott> Distro^Junkie: - actually i would like to wipe the drive and start over...
[01:28] <nickrud> ubuntu09: try killall gnome-panel in a terminal
[01:28] <ironfroggy_> test jobs started from the cups web interface just say "Stopped" and never print, and pages printed from a windows client say they print, but never even show up on the cups queue. what could cause both?
[01:28] <Distro^Junkie> Liott: why not just download 7.04 ?
[01:28] <sarthor> rob_p, i have cleared that all logs. this time i have deleted /var/spool/squid too. reinstalling squid
[01:29] <unagi> how do i remove nvidia 100.14.11
[01:29] <Liott> Distro^Junkie: - i did and even burned it onto a dvd
[01:29] <usser> edz: did u try fixes from binary driver howto??
[01:29] <usser> edz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[01:29] <Distro^Junkie> does it work ?
[01:29] <ubuntu09> nickrud - didnt help
[01:29] <jvai> sarthor, did u install firestarter?
[01:29] <Liott> Distro^Junkie: - i can see the files but it won't boot from the dvd
[01:29] <nickrud> ubuntu09: delete it from the panel, then re-add it
[01:29] <sarthor> jvai, No.
[01:29] <ubuntu09> did that to. nothing
[01:29] <Distro^Junkie> what did you use to burn it ?
[01:29] <edz> usser, i did.
[01:30] <ubuntu09> also my skype wont load up
[01:30] <edz> let me try some of the others on the bottom
[01:30] <jvai> firestarter would help control the beast that is iptables sarthor
[01:30] <nickrud> sounds like something deeper then ...
[01:30] <Liott> Distro^Junkie: - i think it was the native ubuntu feature
[01:30] <maedhros> How do I change screen resolution? My resolution is not listed in "Screen Resolution Prefrences".
[01:30] <ubuntu09> i wonder if its a memory thing
[01:30] <P235> can someone tell me the difference between gstreamer0.10-plugins-good/ugly/bad?
[01:30] <sarthor> squid running.
[01:30] <rob_p> sarthor: Cleared the logs?  Why?  There's usually valuable clues in daemon logfiles. You shouldn't be deleting them...
[01:31] <sarthor> jvai, it was problem iwth var/spool/squid.
[01:31] <Distro^Junkie> did you burn it as a iso image ?
[01:31] <jvai> oooo ok
[01:31] <sarthor> i think due to SElinux
[01:31] <Liott> Distro^Junkie: - if i can only get 6.06 to boot from the dvd i think it will give me what i want
[01:31] <jvai> sarthor, run netstat -a to see open connections
[01:32] <sarthor> rob_p, i used to cleard the logs with echo -n '' >/var/log/squid/access.log, is it the right way?
[01:32] <Liott> Distro^Junkie: i think it was a single image :687MB
[01:32] <nickrud> P235: apt-cache policy gstreamer0.10-plugins[good|ugly|bad]  have explanations
[01:32] <CluelessFred> okay, I'm at a dead-end on this wireless issue.  Can anybody provide some assistance, please?
[01:32] <crimsun> P235: see the package descriptions.  Briefly, they contain different codecs depending on the license.

[01:32] <Distro^Junkie> yes but you may have only burned it as a data image not a bootable image
[01:32] <rob_p> sarthor: No need to clear the logs.  They will be rotated and eventually fifo-dropped by the logrotate process...
[01:32] <Liott> Distro^Junkie: - Doh!
[01:33] <Distro^Junkie> just reburn it as a bootable image

[01:34] <kitche> Jacob, cp <file> /usr/lib/
[01:34] <nickrud> jacob_: why would you want to put a file in there, it's a system directory you really don't want to add to except with a package manager
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> jacob_: gksudo gedit will let you write to that folder
[01:35] <ubuntu09> applications menu wont open. anyone?
[01:35] <vader1102> ubuntu09, tried a reboot lately?
[01:35] <ubuntu09> yes
[01:35] <vader1102> ok
[01:35] <ubuntu09> nothing works

[01:36] <Xadloki> why is it so goddamn difficult to share one folder between to computers that are right next to each other while beeing so easy to share over the web with computers miles away ?
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu09: DId you run either of those scripts, are you using beryl or desktop effects etc

[01:37] <ubuntu09> i have envy installed. but its been fine for 2 days
[01:37] <Austinhawk> any suggestions on which software to use for a webcam?
[01:37] <nickrud> deeper problems, indeed
[01:38] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu09: There is your problem...

[01:38] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!

[01:40] <Drk_Avenger> Hi guys!
[01:40] <ScorpKing> youknowme: Mbps and Kb/s are not the same thing. 300Kb/s is about 1.5Mbps if i'm not mistaken.
[01:41] <usser> Drk_Avenger: hello
[01:41] <elzbal> youknowme: 300kBytes/sec is pretty good for a 1.5mBit connection.
[01:41] <Drk_Avenger> I'm sorry to say Ubuntu was so slow for me
[01:41] <usser> ScorpKing: no 300kb/s is 3 Mbps

[01:46] <tryan345> anyone here dealt with the new dell inspirons or vostros and hd audio?
[01:46] <Matir> is there a way to NOT require membership in the plugdev group for a user to automatically have USB drives mounted?

[01:47] <nickrud> Matir: none that I've heard of, plugdev is supposed to handle all hot plugging
[01:47] <nickrud> Luke: yes, you'd just have to choose it under Sessions on the login screen

[01:48] <Moniker42> or how do i get which region my keyboard is from from the tty?
[01:48] <rockets> I can't get anything to play the quicktime file.
[01:48] <unagi_> can someone please help me with nvidia drivers
[01:48] <Plantain> hey, after a hard reboot my desktop is blank (but there's still files in /home/user/desktop), can anyone shine some light on this?
[01:48] <UrbenLegend> snocone: i am sorry i am totally just dry, i have done everything i described for my card and i dunno what is wrong with yours
[01:48] <snocone> well fuck. :(
[01:48] <CluelessFred> jack_sparrow:  that web page on wireless assumes it's not working - it is, but sporadically, and I don't know why or how to fix it.
[01:48] <UrbenLegend> snocone: have you tried ndiswrapper yet?
[01:49] <snocone> I don't know, should I?
[01:49] <Jack_Sparrow> CluelessFred: Did you install with ndiswrapper or fwcutter
[01:49] <unagi_> !nvidia
[01:49] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:49] <usser> Parisi: i was wrong))
[01:49] <LukeEkblad> boyam:  will this mess up my computer or somthing?
[01:49] <UrbenLegend> snocone: its a separate driver, you might have more luck with that
[01:49] <CluelessFred> jacksparrow:  neither, took the defaults, and I'm using the "ultimate ubuntu" pseudo-distro.
[01:49] <Plantain> nevermind, fixed it
[01:50] <snocone> but I thought it didn't work with airport
[01:50] <nickrud> ultimate ubuntu?
[01:50] <usser> Mr-Snick: so whats your problem?
[01:50] <CluelessFred> jacksparrow:  if I can fire up Wireless Assistant - I can usually get it to work, but I don't know why.
[01:50] <unagi_> can anyone please help me figure out how to uninstall the nvidia drivers i installed
[01:50] <Jack_Sparrow> CluelessFred: Then you might need to ask them...
[01:50] <Parisi> usser, Ya, i was starting to have second doubts, but i did the math on my own and it turned out right.
[01:50] <bascule> Moniker42: loadkeys
[01:50] <xOR> hi
[01:50] <CluelessFred> jacksparrow:  my impression was that it was a standard ubuntu 7.04 build with additional apps already on the DVD?
[01:51] <bascule> unagi_: ./NVIDA-foo-blsh uninstall
[01:51] <UrbenLegend> snocone: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff
[01:51] <boyam> LukeEkblad, it's ubuntu just with a different set of packages and apps....it didn't mess my computer up...not sure what it will do for you...
[01:51] <bascule> unagi_: ./NVIDA-foo-blsh --uninstall

[01:51] <Jack_Sparrow> CluelessFred: They will know what tools and add ons they put on their better than I will...
[01:51] <LukeEkblad> boyam:  ok, but dose it remove anything? or just install stuff
[01:52] <boyam> LukeEkblad, go to the website in ubotu's message and check it out
[01:52] <unagi_> no such file or directory bascule
[01:52] <UrbenLegend> snocone: k i gtg you're on your own good luck
[01:52] <CluelessFred> jacksparrow:  so perhaps a reinstall using the standard 7.04 build and see if I have the same problems?
[01:52] <bascule> did you install from the .sh
[01:52] <unagi_> yes
[01:52] <unagi_> er

[01:53] <snocone> jvai: I doubt it
[01:53] <Jack_Sparrow> driver
[01:53] <bascule> yeah that ./NVI<tab> --uninstall from the directiry containing the .run thingy
[01:53] <boyam> LukeEkblad, it's an OS based on ubuntu.....are you running ubuntu now?
[01:53] <snocone> thanks urbenlegend. :)
[01:53] <CluelessFred> jacksparrow:  ok, we'll see what happens.  as in http://wiki.ubuntu.com?
[01:53] <unagi_> ./nvi comes up with nothing
[01:53] <jvai> snocone, if u r on dsl, like verison, they have a funky way of assigning mac addresses, reset the modem
[01:54] <gonzoism> i ran sudo apt-get install kernel-package then cd /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.22.10-generic/ &&sudo cp /boot/config-2.6.22.10-generic .config      now if i config'd saved, and built would i have the same kernel as stock gutsy kernel i'm using now ?

[01:54] <xOR> anyone can help me ? i need to enable direct3d support for vmware. but i've got this error -> libxdamage.so.1 not found ... the lib is installed (i've found under /usr/lib). copy libXdamage.so.1 under the tree /usr/lib/vmware/lib not solve the problem
[01:54] <bascule> are you sudo/root is X running?
[01:55] <troyj> i'm having trouble with xfce and /etc/hosts
[01:55] <gonzoism> xOR i think you need to make a symlink
[01:55] <LukeEkblad> boyam:  yes
[01:55] <unagi_> x is running and i am sudo
[01:56] <usser> so vmware 6.0 supports 3d rendering?
[01:56] <xOR> gonzoism: i've make symlink from /usr/lib/libXdamage.so.1.1.0 to /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libXdamage.so.1/libXdama.so.1. but no solve the problem, the error message continue to appear
[01:56] <usser> can u play games on that??
[01:56] <Pici> usser: News to me if I can.
[01:56] <gonzoism> xOR i've ran into that before, and looked it up either on the forums or google.  seems like it just needed a symlink.  you might try pasting the error message into google.com/linux  or  other searches.  (sorry i don't have the exact command for you, i'm not a rtfm kind of guy)
[01:56] <unagi_> i REALLY do not want to reinstall ubuntu
[01:57] <bascule> gonzoism: .config goes in the /usr/src/linux-<version> dir not headers
[01:57] <usser> Pici: xOR was talking about direct3d support
[01:57] <snocone> meh, I'm done for the day.
[01:57] <Pici> usser: Right. I know.
[01:57] <dawiz> can anyone help with ndiswrapper?
[01:57] <xOR> usser: no vmware workstation (but direct3d his supported from 5.5) i use vmware-server (the method is same. edit .vmx file of the virtual machine and add mks.enable3d = true)
[01:57] <gonzoism> bascule how do i get that ?  cause kernel-package installs that headers dir.  its like 56m big...  so i think its really the kernel.  maybe ?  i dunno
[01:57] <snocone> thanks all for the help
[01:58] <unagi_> after installing nvidia 100.14.11 x will not start saying no screens found.........how do i fix this or how do i uninstall the drivers?
[01:58] <new2linx> anyone here use firewire with a sa3250hd and mythtv?
[01:58] <bascule> unagi_: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf so it uses nv instead of nvidia
[01:58] <boyam> LukeEkblad, then the quickest way to get a feel for edubuntu is to do a sudo apt-get install edubuntu-desktop.........this will give you a taste of edubuntu...it doesn't remove anything...it adds to what you have installed..
[01:58] <unagi_> im using nv
[01:58] <unagi_> now what
[01:58] <bascule> gonzoism: I always build vanilla kernels, distro kernels don't recompile well in my experience
[01:59] <tatters> anyone using the package apt-cacher (apt cache sharing for LAN) know anything about error  500 Can't connect to ubuntu:80 (Bad hostname 'ubuntu'),ive googled and read man and can find no info so far,
[01:59] <unagi_> bascule you dont mean that as a long term fix do you?
[01:59] <gonzoism> bascule   yeah, i'm trying to get it to quit freezing then get the patch to ubuntu people
[01:59] <xevil>  I have a permissions problem with konqueror... I can only get it to browse the internet as the superuser.  Any Suggestions?
[01:59] <LukeEkblad> boyam:  ok awesome.  So this would be good if i'm in school?
[01:59] <bascule> unagi_: and what is the problem exactly?
[01:59] <veynom> how do i run a shell script?
[01:59] <usser> xOR oh ok
[01:59] <bascule> gonzoism: kernel patches, good luck
[02:00] <usser> veynom: usually by "bash scriptname"
[02:00] <unagi_> the problem is x will not start unless im running nv drivers
[02:00] <dawiz> can anyone help with ndiswrapper?
[02:00] <unagi_> how do i fix this
[02:00] <dawiz> i keep getting invalid driver
[02:00] <fulio> is akamaru engine any good?
[02:00] <veynom> is a shell script just a plain text file with commands in them then?
[02:00] <bascule> veynom: yes
[02:00] <usser> veynom: yep
[02:00] <veynom> brb
[02:00] <boyam> LukeEkblad, it depends, bulk of the apps are geared towards grade school level...however there are some apps geared towards high school/college...
[02:01] <xOR> gonzoism: i cannot found any help on google.com/linux :/
[02:01] <LukeEkblad> boyam:  ok, cool
[02:01] <dawiz> anyone?
[02:01] <LukeEkblad> boyam:  thanks!
[02:01] <unagi> bascule: do you have any clue how to fix this?
[02:01] <bascule> unagi_: if you managed to ./NVI<tab> to install --uninstall option will work, but you have to be out of x same as install
[02:01] <boyam> LukeEkblad, if you don't like it just reverse the process and do a apt-get remove edubuntu-desktop
[02:02] <unagi> no i didnt ./nvi to install.........it was sudo sh NVIDIABLABLAH.run
[02:02] <gonzoism> bascule   you do vanilla kernels ?   i think that might be the way i'll go just to get some progress.. i've been stuck for a week for a lack of info.  or at least understandable info.     i guess i can grab the kernel from the archive, and use the config from /boot/config-'uname -r'   and patch and then what ?  i've never did the initrd.gz thing...  mind laying it out for me /
[02:02] <dawiz> i manually copied the driver files to /etc/ndiswrapper/wusb54gv2
[02:02] <diamondjed> I am new to using ubuntu.  When I buy components for my computer do I need to make certain that they offer linux drivers?  For instance I was considering buying this SATA controller but Linux/Ubuntu is not listed in the OS(s) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815124006
[02:02] <boyam> LukeEkblad, preceed apt-get with sudo....of course you knew that already :P
[02:02] <LukeEkblad> boyam:  alright, thanks
[02:02] <dawiz> when i run ndiswrapper -l i get invalid driver

[02:03] <techjim> hey guys I have some dynamic wifi clients roaming round my network and I hope to get them access to the nfs server hosted on my ubuntu server.  inside shared folders, I can select allowed hosts for nfs.  I want to specify the entire network as my wifi users get pushed IPs.

[02:11] <FFForever> skyfalcon866, it is???, how come if i backup a music cd it isn't?
[02:11] <gonzoism> skyfalcon866 i think watching them might be too.
[02:11] <bascule> gonzoism: it seems easy enough
[02:11] <xOR> i need to trace child process with strace. it's possible ?
[02:11] <dawiz> anyone?
[02:11] <skyfalcon866> FFForver: i dont know i just know it is illegal to rip a DVD that you do not own
[02:12] <bascule> but if you are building a kernel just config it properly and you won't need ramfs or initrd
[02:12] <FFForever> skyfalcon866, it is just to make a copy of it....
[02:12] <P235> Are microsoft fonts necessary for any purpose or is it a matter of preference?  Can I do without them?
[02:12] <usser> FFForever: only css encrypted dvds
[02:12] <maedhros> How do I change screen resolution? My resolution is not listed in "Screen Resolution Prefrences". I've tried rerunning dpkg-reconfigue xserver-xorg AND just adding the resolution to xorg.conf :(
[02:12] <veynom> how do i put a comment in a shell script?
[02:12] <bascule> #comment here
[02:12] <CluelessFred> how do I determine which drivers are loaded?
[02:12] <FFForever> usser, you can't decrypt css without breaking the law in the us?
[02:12] <skyfalcon866> FFForver: if you dont own but i am not sure if it is illegal to make a copy of dvd you own try googleing it
[02:13] <bascule> CluelessFred: lsmod
[02:13] <dawiz> is there a room that can help with this issue?
[02:13] <gonzoism> bascule    you just mkinitramfs ?  or what ?
[02:13] <overclucker> veynnom # note
[02:13] <bascule> skyfalcon866: it is legal in the uk
[02:13] <skyfalcon866> bascule: i live in the usa not uk
[02:13] <bascule> gonzoism: well add things to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
[02:13] <FFForever> same here?, go bush :D i voted for him XD
[02:14] <Mr-Snick> usser: i needa kno how to isntall vmware
[02:14] <bascule> like root fs and ide
[02:14] <CluelessFred> bascule:  thank you
[02:14] <xOR> strace can trace process create with the lib pthread and not fork ?
[02:14] <bascule> np
[02:14] <usser> FFForever: u can only if the program with which u decrypt is closed otherwise whole protection scheme goes down the drain, since u can easily modify the pgm to not only decrypt for viewing but rip the copy-protected dvds
[02:14] <realnewguy> hey there im trying to move a gdm theme to /usr/share/gdm/theme from my desktop, but i cant copy and paste because i need permission, how do i do this through the gui?

[02:15] <usser> FFForever: program that decrypts the dvd on the fly for u to watch
[02:15] <CluelessFred> different tack:  does the LiveCD have wireless drivers on it, or do you have to install to get them working?
[02:15] <bascule> gonzoism: just put rootfs and IDE/SATA drivers as * instead of <M> and take ir from there
[02:15] <FFForever> overclucker, tell ppl why?, that i think bush is a good prez and that he does the job good?
[02:15] <realnewguy> hey there im trying to move a gdm theme to /usr/share/gdm/theme from my desktop, but i cant copy and paste because i need permission, how do i do this through the gui?
[02:15] <FFForever> tell ppl what***
[02:15] <overclucker> FFForever, correct
[02:15] <gonzoism> bascule   that is all that the initrd.gz was for,  to get access to the modules ?
[02:15] <FFForever> overclucker, but it is true....
[02:15] <astro76> !politics
[02:15] <ubotu> Please take political discussion to ##politics. Thank you!

[02:16] <keen> ok, k3b seems cool, how about a program to convert avi, divx, etc to dvd format?
[02:16] <FFForever> usser, what is vhs?
[02:16] <bascule> yes, stuff neede to actually get to the point the machine can execute /sbin/init
[02:16] <bascule> like the hdd for example :)

[02:16] <usser> FFForever: video tapes ))
[02:17] <keen> gonzoism, thanks again =)
[02:17] <realnewguy> what is the 'delete' command for the terminal?
[02:17] <FFForever> usser, i thought no one used them anymore...
[02:17] <sheldon> I just installed a openssh server and I cannot connect to it remotely.  There is no firewall.  Please help
[02:17] <gonzoism> bascule   hell.  i would have rebuilt fedora kernels a long time ago if i knew i could have just bypassed initrd.gz
[02:17] <usser> keen: try ffmpeg
[02:17] <gonzoism> bascule   thanks.
[02:17] <usser> FFForever: thats the idea ))))
[02:17] <bascule> sure it's much easier to ignore it all together gonzoism
[02:17] <bascule> np
[02:17] <usser> FFForever: no one cares
[02:17] <gonzoism> keen   have you checked out devede ?
[02:17] <FFForever> usser, i like my myth tv :D i don't care :D
[02:17] <keen> usser thanks, i'll look at that too

[02:18] <TecTec> Question? to update from Ubuntu 5 to Ubuntu 7 do I need to use a CD?
[02:18] <diamondjed> is there an online computer store that specializes in products compatiable with linux?
[02:18] <gonzoism> skyfalcon866   me too !  :)
[02:19] <Veinor> I'm running Feisty on an HP Pavilion dv9235nr with Beryl 0.2 and the nvidia restricted driver. Sometimes the computer totally freezes and doesn't even respond to control-alt-sysrq. What would cause this?
[02:19] <CluelessFred> does the LiveCD have wireless drivers on it, or do you have to install ubuntu to get them working?
[02:19] <realnewguy> hey how do i delete a file in the terminal?
[02:19] <realnewguy> whats the command?
[02:19] <gonzoism> diamondjed   linuxcompatible.org  or .net or .com   also, dell sells ubuntu machines.
[02:19] <batags> anyone direct me to a site where I can add a resume program????
[02:19] <Veinor> realnewguy: rm
[02:19] <Beda> rm filename
[02:19] <realnewguy> ty
[02:19] <keen> gonzoism, i liked it alot, tho if i tried to put more than one video file on a dvd, it would only play the first file
[02:19] <Mr-Snick> usser: Yes
[02:19] <gonzoism> diamondjed   so, dell.com  :)
[02:19] <bascule> heh, I will leave this very well working ubuntu laptop for the time being, I'll break it soon though, don't worry :))
[02:19] <Veinor> realnewguy: be careful, there's no easy way to undelete files deleted with rm
[02:19] <realnewguy> how about for removing directorys?
[02:19] <mtx1> anyone know of a good am2 motherboard for linux?
[02:19] <Veinor> rm -rf <directory>. be VERY careful with that.
[02:20] <keen> gonzoism, is there a gui for mencoder
[02:20] <TecTec> Question? to update from Ubuntu 5 to Ubuntu 7 do I need to use a CD?
[02:20] <Beda> rm -d
[02:20] <gonzoism> keen   ah.  maybe you have to work with the dvd menus.  (not program menus)  or something.  i see what you are saying, that will be cool when you make it.
[02:20] <realnewguy> tyvm
[02:20] <gonzoism> keen   gmencoder maybe ?

[02:20] <bascule> beware the power of the enter key ...
[02:20] <realnewguy> ahh cool ty
[02:21] <Beda> be careful with that
[02:21] <bascule> it takes no prisoners
[02:21] <Beda> there's no way back
[02:21] <usser> diamondjed: there is system47 or 74 something like that
[02:21] <don_pucci> hey all

[02:21] <don_pucci> any thoughts?
[02:21] <Beda> whatever you delete with this command can't be restored
[02:21] <gonzoism> keen   konverter is a kde front end to mencoder
[02:22] <realnewguy> so how do i move a file from my desktop to the /usr/share/gdm/theme dir? i cant do it through the cut and paste because i need persmission
[02:22] <gonzoism> keen   acidrip is too i think
[02:22] <Beda> as you're a real new guy, it's my duty to warn :D
[02:22] <realnewguy> :P
[02:22] <usser> diamondjed: oh here we go system76.com
[02:22] <MarcN> I have a MOV file I want to get some screen caps from.  What is the best tool?
[02:22] <bascule> keen: what do you want to convert?
[02:22] <Beda> if you don't have permission, you can't do it
[02:22] <bascule> MarcN: gxine
[02:22] <realnewguy> :S
[02:23] <realnewguy> well can i do it through the terminal?
[02:23] <Beda> no
[02:23] <realnewguy> im trying to install this gmd theme :S
[02:23] <bascule> sudo cp /the/theme /etc/gdm/<blah>
[02:23] <MarcN> bascule: to take screen caps?  There is a specific 2 seconds I want to pull out.
[02:23] <realnewguy> and the instructions says to move the file
[02:23] <Beda> if you become super user, you can do it
[02:23] <realnewguy> cool ty bascule
[02:23] <realnewguy> will that move the whole directory or the file though?
[02:23] <diamondjed> usser: thank you.  I need parts and accessories more so then systems
[02:23] <keen> bascule, i have some avi files of a tv show, i wanna burn em to dvd so i can watch em on my tv
[02:23] <bascule> MarcN: well other than that I dunno
[02:23] <KevinOman> is there any way to recover a file I just deleted, its not in the trash folder
[02:24] <realnewguy> last time i tryed i moved the whole desktop dir by accident lol
[02:24] <MarcN> bascule: my kids are in a 30s commercial for those 2 seconds.  I was looking for some editing tool

[02:25] <KevinOman> anyone?
[02:25] <Ray_at_UW> KevinOman: I think it's gone.
[02:25] <usser> KevinOman: u fucked ))
[02:25] <KevinOman> @#%@#^
[02:25] <jvai_> smh
[02:25] <bascule> well I dunno if kino can edit quicktime or not ...
[02:26] <KevinOman> it was 3.5gb
[02:26] <usser> KevinOman: u deleted it from console?
[02:26] <KevinOman> no from Ktorrent
[02:26] <Veinor> I'm running Feisty on an HP Pavilion dv9235nr with Beryl 0.2 and the nvidia restricted driver. Sometimes the computer totally freezes and doesn't even respond to control-alt-sysrq. What would cause this?
[02:26] <KevinOman> I thought I was stopping the seed
[02:26] <KevinOman> it was the remove button
[02:27] <MarcN> bascule: I'll give kino a try.
[02:27] <usser> KevinOman: sorry never used ktorrent but i think it stores incomplete downloads somewhere and doesnt delete them all that simple
[02:27] <davidthedrake> Veinor, could be any number of things... is there any kind of behavior that you can do to recreate the problem?
[02:28] <veynom>  does anyone make a laptop that fully supports Linux?
[02:28] <bascule> MarcN: yeah if not ffmpeg can almost certainly do it with the shell
[02:28] <usser> veynom: take a look at system76.com
[02:28] <davidthedrake> veynom, Dell and more recently HP both do. Toshiba offers one too I think.
[02:28] <scratchme> Hi all.
[02:28] <bascule> but a gui would be nice
[02:28] <IndyGunFreak> veynom: uh, Dell, you can order them w/ Ubuntu
[02:28] <FFForever> does linux/ubuntu/etc have a government backdoor login anywhere in the source code?
[02:28] <Veinor> davidthedrake: usually if I set the screensaver to one of the GL ones and leave it run overnight, it triggers it
[02:28] <Veinor> FFForever: No.
[02:28] <MarcN> veynom: My hp/compaq nc6400 is pretty nice.  Just missing the thumbprint reader it seems.
[02:29] <usser> FFForever: yep famous bash quote says that u can use tab completion on the password
[02:29] <bascule> Veinor: sounds like overheating
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> i have an old compaq laptop, everything works fine on it(but i don't have/use wireless, so ymmv)
[02:29] <KevinOman> oh well ill just download it oner night
[02:29] <usser> FFForever: thats a joke though )
[02:29] <scratchme> I was told when you want to update your samba mount points in /etc/fstab, you use, "sudo mount -a".  What's the proper way to update the system to stop accessing inaccessible shares?
[02:29] <FFForever> usser, thats what they want us to think?
[02:29] <Veinor> bascule: might be it. I know often it'll weird out if I put it on a soft bed.
[02:29] <FFForever> usser, has anyone gone through the code to see?
[02:30] <Veinor> FFForever: Yeah.
[02:30] <usser> FFForever: dude its open source what do u think )))
[02:30] <bascule> Veinor: that *IS* it then
[02:30] <Downix> I think I know the answer, but I have to ask... any way to install ubuntu over a network from a floppy?
[02:30] <Veinor> bascule: Suggestions on what to do?
[02:30] <bascule> compressed air throught the vents
[02:30] <FFForever> Veinor, usser, ppl are lazy...., i doubt anyone went through all of the source just to check for backdoor logins.....
[02:30] <Absenth> where does apt install php on feisty?
[02:31] <IndyGunFreak> Downix: not sure about Ubuntu, but i know Debian etch has a pretty good Network/floppy install.
[02:31] <Veinor> ffforever: there's only certain parts of the source that it could be in, and there are certain strings that would have to be present.
[02:31] <bascule> it'll probably cough up a load of dust Veinor :)
[02:31] <usser> Absenth: try which php or whereis php
[02:31] <IndyGunFreak> !install | Downix
[02:31] <ubotu> Downix: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[02:31] <FFForever> Veinor, like?
[02:31] <Veinor> ffforever: I'm not familiar with the source myself, so Icouldn't say.
[02:31] <Absenth> usser: no result, and php:
[02:31] <Downix> IndyGunFreak: I know about debian, just 1 disk short a floppy for it  I have 4 disks, but it needs 5
[02:31] <davidthedrake> Veinor, gotcha... I had a similar problem and found that I had to add some additional options in my xorg.conf for GL-based screensavers.
[02:31] <davidthedrake> Veinor, but I'm running on a dv6436nr
[02:32] <overclucker> FFForever, some people think it's fun to browse source code for errors
[02:32] <IndyGunFreak> Downix: hmm, well, floppies are cheap.
[02:32] <realnewguy> im trying to copy a tar called "login-scan-fusion.tar.gz" from /home/xen/Desktop to /usr/share/gdm/themes  i tryed the "cp" terminal command but it says "cp: cannot stat `login-scan-fusion.tar.gz': No such file or directory.   what am i doing wrong?
[02:32] <Veinor> davidthedrake: actually, it might be overheating. the odd thing is that if I try the Braid one, it freezes up for about a minute.
[02:32] <Veinor> and then responds.
[02:32] <atarinox> getting this message when i try to run my vpnclient..."could not attach to driver. Is kernel module loaded?"....would this mean that it's not starting when my pc boots?
[02:32] <FFForever> overclucker, u mean ppl who are 30+ living in there parents attice/basement?
[02:32] <Downix> IndyGunFreak: being lazy and not wanting to get out of the house  8)
[02:32] <IndyGunFreak> Downix: i take it you have no way to burn/boot a cd/dvd
[02:32] <ffm> How do I delete a key from the ubuntu keyservers.
[02:32] <moofoo> hello, is there a way to dump Quicktime based rtsp streams? mplayer's LIVE555 does not seem to work..
[02:32] <IndyGunFreak> Downix: understood.. been there myself.
[02:32] <ffm>  I am the owner, and would like to revoke it.
[02:32] <davidthedrake> Veinor, It may be overheating. Have you tried to prop your laptop up to make sure that it's getting plenty of airflow?
[02:32] <overclucker> FFForever, not just them ;)
[02:32] <bascule> realnewguy: cd esktop then repeat your command
[02:33] <astro76> ffm, you have to generate a revocation certificate and upload it to the keyserver
[02:33] <davidthedrake> Veinor, In addition: do you notice any other GL oddities?
[02:33] <bascule> cd Desktop rather
[02:33] <ffm> astro76, how?
[02:33] <overclucker> FFForever, but they do their part
[02:33] <Veinor> davidthedrake: nope.
[02:33] <usser> realnewguy: try sudo su and then cp $HOME/Desktop/login-scan-fusion.tar.gz /usr/share/gdm/themes
[02:33] <fujin_> heh, can anyone tell me when the /etc/cron.daily jobs are executed?
[02:33] <fujin_> like, a time?
[02:33] <realnewguy> ahh ok ty
[02:33] <FFForever> overclucker, what part is that?
[02:33] <Veinor> fujin_: just a guess, but midnight as measured by the clock on your computer.
[02:34] <fujin_> a guess isn't really what I'm after, thanks though.
[02:34] <overclucker> there part of the source browsing
[02:34] <astro76> ffm, http://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual.html#REVOCATION
[02:34] <realnewguy> now it says Unknown id: cp ?
[02:34] <Veinor> realnewguy: what's the exact command
[02:34] <Veinor> that you're typing
[02:34] <overclucker> their share
[02:34] <ffm> thx
[02:34] <realnewguy> xen@XEN:~/Desktop$ sudo cp $HOME/Desktop/login-scan-fusion.tar.gz /usr/share/gdm/themes
[02:34] <slavik> http://pastebin.com/mfb93b68 (more of a gloat)
[02:34] <davidthedrake> Veinor, Hrm. Sorry man. I still get an occasional freeze-up on my laptop. I've just attributed it to oddities or occasional heat difficulties. I noticed that my laptop would freeze when leaving it overnight even with Vista too though... so that may be further indication.
[02:35] <usser> realnewguy: u cant use sudo with cp for some reason
[02:35] <Veinor> i've used sudo with cp.
[02:35] <usser> Veinor: how??
[02:35] <Veinor> it's cd that doesn't work with sudo
[02:35] <realnewguy> oh, can i use su instead?
[02:35] <Veinor> sudo cp
[02:35] <Veinor> just like normal.
[02:35] <bascule> davidthedrake: it is heat I assure you, I am a repair tech, see it all the time
[02:35] <fujin_> Veinor, 25 6  * * * root  test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || run-parts --report /etc/cron.d
[02:35] <fujin_> aily
[02:35] <fujin_> from /etc/crontab
[02:35] <FFForever> why would u sudo cd /location?
[02:35] <fujin_> so 6:25 every morning ;] 
[02:35] <davidthedrake> bascule, Oh yea? Specifically with the HP dv#### laptops?
[02:35] <Veinor> yeah, that'd be it then.
[02:36] <usser> Veinor: oh yea
[02:36] <penney> Can anyone tell me how to change shutdown privileges so that the MythTV group can shutdown?
[02:36] <Veinor> ffforever: to do stuff in a directory you don't have access to? I dunno.
[02:36] <bascule> davidthedrake: al sorts really, but there may be a BIOS issue
[02:36] <bascule> my shop does about 40 machines a week
[02:36] <FFForever> Veinor, i thought that was what sudo -i | cd /location was for?
[02:36] <Veinor> i'll try try blasting it with compressed air, then disabling beryl if that doesn't work
[02:36] <davidthedrake> bascule, *nod* that was something that I wasn't ruling out. It's so hard to tell with 3d difficulties and hard-freezes. Thanks for the info though.
[02:36] <bascule> np
[02:37] <Veinor> the other odd thing i've noticed is that sometimes i can move the mouse around, but nothing else works.
[02:37] <realnewguy> uh oh
[02:37] <realnewguy> i made a big stuff up
[02:37] <Veinor> what?
[02:37] <realnewguy> a very big stuff up :S
[02:37] <Veinor> what'd you do?
[02:37] <davidthedrake> Veinor, I also get the same thing. Responsiveness normally returns within a couple minutes though.
[02:37] <usser> OMG
[02:37] <bascule> there is a utility for windows called prime95, so run that cause it doesn't strain gfx cards just cpu, then you will know for sure
[02:37] <Veinor> ok, I guess I'm just impatient then.
[02:37] <usser> he did didnt he??
[02:37] <davidthedrake> Veinor, by couple minutes I meant couple moments.
[02:37] <realnewguy> i previously accidnetly moved my desktop dir to /usr/share/gdm/theme, then i deleted it
[02:38] <overclucker> lol
[02:38] <Beda> hahahaha
[02:38] <realnewguy> now my desktop has icons, but when i click on them, they just dissapear :S
[02:38] <Veinor> i was expecting you killed your root directory...
[02:38] <astro76> realnewguy, mkdir ~/Desktop
[02:38] <usser> hehehe
[02:38] <realnewguy> ;(
[02:38] <Beda> that's normal for a real new guy
[02:38] <Veinor> mkdir ~/Desktop will fix that
[02:38] <realnewguy> where do i mkdir from?
[02:38] <Veinor> any terminal
[02:38] <Beda> anywhere
[02:38] <Ray_at_UW> cd ~

[02:39] <Veinor> yeah
[02:39] <Beda> yes
[02:39] <astro76> realnewguy, yes
[02:39] <Pici> usser: 1) you can do `sudo cp` 2) its reccomended that sudo -i is used instead of sudo su
[02:39] <usser> Pici: gotcha
[02:39] <Veinor> ~/Desktop is the same as /home/xen/Desktop (~ means home directory)

[02:44] <travis_> i get > and nothing
[02:44] <realnewguy> man i got to teach myself these terminal comands seriously :S
[02:44] <davidthedrake> travis_, K, so it sounds like ndiswrapper is installed but you don't have any drivers installed through it.
[02:45] <travis_> a pipe or an l
[02:45] <davidthedrake> The letter L
[02:45] <bascule> realnewguy: add a test user and mess about in there, leave a reallog-in for other stuff
[02:45] <realnewguy> ok ty
[02:45] <travis_> travis@travis-laptop:~$ sudo ndiswrapper -i home/travis/drivers/dr71wu.inf
[02:45] <travis_> Password:
[02:45] <travis_> driver dr71wu is already installed
[02:45] <travis_> travis@travis-laptop:~$ ndiswrapper -|
[02:45] <travis_> >
[02:45] <MarcN> bascule: aha -- I use ffmeg to convert the MOV to AVI and cut down to the 2 seconds I wanted. Then used kino to get the 41 frames in JPG that I wanted.  Sweet.
[02:45] <travis_> nvm its saying invaled driver
[02:45] <Amy_Lynn> any other suggestions then?  all of my friends are on yahoo msgr
[02:45] <Ray_at_UW> Amy_Lynn: I just installed Pidgin. Just go here: http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=1307, download the pidgin-data first, it will install for you, and then download pidgin, and it will be all installed for you. You'll find it under Applications>Internet>pidgin. I'm using it right now. :D
[02:45] <davidthedrake> ;)
[02:45] <travis_> with -l
[02:45] <davidthedrake> *nod* That lists the drivers installed with ndiswrapper
[02:46] <Ray_at_UW> Amy_Lynn: Pidgin supports all your messengers from Yahoo, to MSN, even Jabber/Gmail
[02:46] <mrdude> question, im behind a router, and have apache2 running, the outside world can see my website at its ip address, but when i type the ip address from within the network it comes out refused
[02:46] <mrdude> anyone have any idea whats going on here?
[02:47] <bascule> MarcN: nice work :)
[02:47] <bascule> realnewguy:
[02:47] <travis_> ya i get invalid driver
[02:47] <bascule> ] 
[02:47] <bascule> hmm
[02:47] <davidthedrake> travis_, sounds like you'll want to work with reinstalling the driver.
[02:47] <bascule> linuxcommand.org
[02:47] <aguitel> anyone know to configure mouse to work with one click in the desktop ?
[02:47] <travis_> dr71wu : invalid driver!
[02:48] <travis_> how would i do that
[02:48] <davidthedrake> mrdude, Are you saying that you can type the IP address in your browser and you see your website except when you're inside the network?
[02:48] <s0y> anyone know why certain video streams look a lot worse on ubuntu than my win box?
[02:49] <realnewguy> ah ok ty
[02:49] <Ray_at_UW> s0y: That's kind of open ended, What file, what codec, and what players are you using?
[02:49] <aguitel>  anyone know how configure mouse with one click open aplications in the desktop ?
[02:49] <overclucker> s0y, crappy codecs?
[02:49] <mrdude> david: right, i just tried from somebody elses house and everyone else can see it
[02:49] <bascule> aguitel: gconf-editor thingy
[02:49] <s0y> Ray_at_UW, not sure about the file (mms stream?) and smplayer/vlc vs. wmp, mpc, winamp
[02:49] <mrdude> but from within my network, it wont come up unless i do a http:// 192.168.0.3
[02:49] <aguitel> bascule ,in terminal ?
[02:50] <Random832> is there a way to make a script run whenever i start gnome?
[02:50] <bascule> well alt+F2
[02:50] <mrdude> it worked before i put the router in
[02:50] <Random832> so i can, e.g. do xmodmap stuff that's not covered by the gnome control panel
[02:50] <astro76> mrdude, that's perfectly normal with the router
[02:50] <Veinor> random832: yeah
[02:50] <jvai_> aguitel, -system-preference-mouse?
[02:50] <travis_> davidthedrake, how would i unistall my ndiswrapper driver, and do you think it will work, and i also say a native driver tutorial and it looks really long to do
[02:50] <mrdude> so is there a work around?
[02:50] <Random832> Veinor: how
[02:50] <Veinor> random832: system->user preferences->sessions
[02:50] <mrdude> can i make an alias or something ?
[02:50] <Random832> k
[02:50] <Random832> thanks
[02:50] <travis_> davidthedrake, but i also have a broadcom in my laptop that i gave up on
[02:50] <Ray_at_UW> s0y: Hrm... :) I'd look in google then. Probably codecs if anything.
[02:51] <davidthedrake> travis_, I'm running on one right now
[02:51] <astro76> mrdude, it's the firewall rules, on some you might be able to change it my modifying the rules, or just use the local IP

[02:51] <davidthedrake> travis_, bcm43x
[02:51] <travis_> mine is a 4311
[02:51] <travis_> x?
[02:51] <aguitel> jvai ,there are not option to configure one click in the mouse
[02:51] <davidthedrake> *nod* bcm43xx = 4311 too.

[02:52] <kkubasik> hey, anyone here an ubuntu member and at a machine with their key?
[02:52] <ikunat> Hi all, I am a bit new to Linux and I am trying to get by strictly with documentation but I am having a bit of a problem finding out where I can find out 'specifically' which drivers are being used for my devices. I do not seem to be able to see this info in Device Manager. Where can I find this information?
[02:53] <bascule> apps nautilus preferences actually aguitel sorry
[02:53] <astro76> Drizzt321, no, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Suspend2Kernel
[02:53] <kkubasik> planet.ubuntu.com is either hacked or spammed or typo'ed
[02:53] <Drizzt321> astro76: thanks, maybe I won't use ubuntu for my laptop then :\
[02:53] <pike_> J-_: apropos volume label

[02:53] <travis_> davidthedrake, and in my bios i have a thing that says activeate with fn+f2 key or a program liek quickset
[02:53] <J-_> pike_: sorry?
[02:53] <kkubasik> someone should prob revert the http://pygi.pykix.net/Kix entry
[02:53] <Matir> kkathman, planet.ubuntu.com works for me

[02:54] <epax> I need some help with changing my resolution and refresh rate. I'm on feisty and i have radeon 9550. Only refresh rate i can use is 60 and 75 hz and highest resolution is 1024x786.
[02:54] <pike_> J-_: apropos or man -k searches through all the man pages for a term so its a good way to find commands
[02:54] <kkubasik> at least until Mario gets a chance to fix it and submit his real blog
[02:54] <davidthedrake> travis_, There are a lot of guides out there on how to install the card. I wouldn't be able to answer any specifics as to why yours isn't working unfortunately.
[02:54] <bascule> then follow the path apps nautilus preferences
[02:54] <bascule> then double click on click_policy and change it to single
[02:55] <travis_> davidthedrak, thank you il try again on google looking around
[02:55] <travis_> davidthedrake, but how could i uninstall the drivers out of ndiswraper to try again
[02:56] <HeqipNuvodux> anybody use mpd?
[02:57] <HeqipNuvodux> for empeethree playback?
[02:58] <davidthedrake> travis_, Honestly I'm not entirely sure. I know you can remove drivers from being used by ndiswrapper by using ndiswrapper -r but I'm not entirely sure what process you may need to go through in order to get your drivers working agian.
[02:58] <davidthedrake> *again
[02:58] <travis_> well thank you for trying
[02:58] <travis_> good night
[02:59] <davidthedrake> travis_, Sure thing, sorry I couldn't give you the 'magic answer'

[03:08] <aguitel> anyone know how arrange the icons in gnome dektop <'
[03:08] <shiznix> is anyone aware of an easy tool such as 'checkinstall' to create .deb packages, checkinstall has a known bug atm that tries to overwrite bin/gcc amongst others :(
[03:08] <jrib> shiznix: what bug?
[03:09] <shiznix> trying to get away with not having to create a special chrooted build environment to create some custom .deb's
[03:09] <shiznix> jrib: hold on, i'll grab the link
[03:10] <shiznix> jrib: http://checkinstall.izto.org/cklist/msg00230.html
[03:10] <shiznix> that user had it try to overwrite bin/ld, my use of it had it try to overwrite bin/gcc
[03:11] <unagi> can anyone help me with nvidia driver problems please http://pastebin.com/m5add8c40
[03:12] <jrib> shiznix: it's dated february and it says the fix would be out next week though?  Are you sure the bug exists in the version of checkinstall in the repositories?
[03:12] <dom_> i need help
[03:12] <andrew_> what is the code for installing a TAR.gz file?
[03:12] <unagi> i really need to figure out how to fix this
[03:12] <goldbond> i am trying to remember how to set automatic backups... chrontable? chronjob?
[03:13] <goldbond> what is the program called?
[03:13] <jrib> !checkinstall > shiznix (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:13] <unagi> !x
[03:13] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:13] <dom_> i just installed beryl and my title bars are gone
[03:13] <astro76> !cron | goldbond
[03:13] <ubotu> goldbond: 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
[03:13] <jrib> shiznix: regardless, the workaround described in taht wiki page for *another* bug should take care of your issue
[03:13] <andrew_> anyone know what the code is to install a tar.gz file?
[03:13] <shiznix> jrib: yes, the latest version is still at 1.6.1 both in the repos + at checkinstall's homepage
[03:13] <goldbond> thanks
[03:13] <dom_> i just installed beryl and my title bars are gone
[03:14] <Veinor> dom: did you install beryl and emerald?
[03:14] <Taladan> hey, kind of an odd question, but does anyone know any map-making software for linux?  Kind of like Campaign Cartographer or anything like that?  I'm looking for something to use in DND games.
[03:14] <dom_> yeah
[03:14] <shiznix> !checkinstall
[03:14] <ubotu> checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[03:14] <overclucker> andrew_, tar -xjvf archive.tar.gz or bz2
[03:14] <Veinor> you see a gem icon in the upper-right corner?
[03:14] <jrib> shiznix: or you could just properly create your debs :)
[03:14] <dom_> yeah, the red one
[03:14] <usser> andrew extract it and then open up console and do cd /folder/towhich/uextracted and then do ./configure sudo make install
[03:15] <Veinor> right click, then 'reload window decorater'
[03:15] <shiznix> jrib: heh, by properly you mean in a chroot build env. ?
[03:15] <david__> How can I get sound? Have sound blaster PCI. Can not get it to work.
[03:15] <dom_> k, i did, now what
[03:15] <Veinor> that didn't work?
[03:15] <dom_> nothing happened
[03:15] <dom_> 
[03:15] <Veinor> sorry
[03:15] <jrib> shiznix: not necessarily, just create the debian/ directory yourself instead of asking checkinstall to do so
[03:16] <jrib> !packaging > shiznix (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:16] <shiznix> hmm ok
[03:16] <shiznix> !packaging
[03:16] <ubotu> The packaging guide is at http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/New for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResources - See also !backports
[03:16] <cafuego> Meine name ist Karl, I am expert.
[03:16] <jrib> shiznix: I tell ubotu to message you so the channel doesn't get spammed
[03:16] <overclucker> andrew__, tar -xf archive.tar.gs then cd arvhive then ./configure && make && make install
[03:17] <dom_> i just installed beryl and my title bars are gone
[03:17] <shiznix> jrib: oops yes, i just found the PM's - still getting used to this irc lcient :|

[03:17] <jrib> dom_: try #ubuntu-effects for help with taht
[03:18] <teimu> could anyone refer me to some documentation on how cron, or other schedulers work, at the CPU level. I'm curious how cron knows when execute tasks without constantly checking if "is it time yet?", which would eat up a CPU i think.
[03:18] <astro76> teimu, it only checks once a minute
[03:18] <overclucker> teimu, man cron

[03:26] <mdszepher> Are there any guides on editing GRUB's OS order?
[03:26] <NMajik> usser: Sorry for the wait, I ran into a tiny issue. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36512/
[03:26] <SpudDogg> mdszepher, edit /boot/grub/menu.list
[03:26] <CoasterMaster> croweboy: nope, just ask away
[03:26] <usser> mdszepher: yep just edit it
[03:26] <jrib> croweboy: you just ask and if someone knows the answer, they answer.  You can repeat about every 15-20 minutes to get some fresh eyes on the issue.  YOu may want to try other support options since your video card is kind of rare
[03:26] <croweboy> oh you mean like repeat myself ten times ?
[03:27] <jrib> !support > croweboy (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:27] <SpudDogg> mdszepher, it might me menu.lst, i cant remember

[03:28] <SpudDogg> how do i get my monitor to display 1280x1024? i edited xorg.conf, then just got a blank screen.  however, i know my monitor supports it
[03:28] <diamondjed> I need to buy a NIC, the two I am looking at are made by Intel/HP and Linksys.  Neither one claims what drivers they have or support.  Do you think my chances are good that these will run on Ubuntu?  Is this something I should typically be concerned with?
[03:28] <usser> NMajik: hm where did u get that Dell monitor was it connected to the comp? if it was what res it was running at??
[03:28] <SpudDogg> diamondjed, are they wired or wireless?
[03:28] <diamondjed> wired
[03:29] <gpled> SpudDogg: do you see the color depth in the xorg.conf file?
[03:29] <diamondjed> spudDogg: wired, just your basic NIC
[03:29] <SpudDogg> diamondjed, i am pretty sure basically any wired nic will work, but im not sure
[03:29] <frogzoo> SpudDogg: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[03:29] <diamondjed> SpudDogg: I think so too.  Thank you
[03:29] <NMajik> usser: I just had a CRT I plugged in for the initial install. I didn't use it for anything else so I'm not sure of the res

[03:29] <frogzoo> diamondjed: intel is linux friendly, linksys isn't (cisco)
[03:30] <SpudDogg> gpled, hmm, i dont know how to find out
[03:30] <frogzoo> diamondjed: you're right to check before you buy hardware that there's a workable linux driver
[03:30] <slop> is there a way to change the directory name my ipod mounts to?  it's mounting to 'IPOD', i need it to mount to 'ipod'.
[03:30] <usser> NMajik: ok in the monitor section put this HorizSync	30-69
[03:31] <SpudDogg> diamondjed, frogzoo is right about cisco, stay away if you can
[03:31] <gpled> SpudDogg: not sure how to tell. i just know which one my monitor will do.  pick the second form the bottom.   thats my guess, and only leave 1280x1024 in there
[03:31] <usser> NMajik: pfft with a space after sync and this 	VertRefresh	50-120
[03:31] <croweboy> any idea's about that video card
[03:31] <usser> NMajik: with a space too
[03:31] <overclucker> gpled, locale -a
[03:31] <SpudDogg> gpled, will do when my VM OS is done installing.  thanks.  do you think i should just reconfigure xorg.conf?
[03:32] <gpled> SpudDogg: you can set them all like that, so you cant go wrong
[03:32] <rafaelfeito> !keymap
[03:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about keymap - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:32] <SpudDogg> gpled, that's what i did before, and got the black screen
[03:32] <rafaelfeito> !keymaps
[03:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about keymaps - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:32] <gpled> overclucker: what does locale -a do?
[03:32] <overclucker> gpled locale -a shows you locales
[03:33] <gpled> SpudDogg: try hitting ctrl alt +    +from the nubpad
[03:33] <NMajik> usser: OK so Horiz Sync 30-69 and Vert Refresh 50-120?
[03:33] <frogzoo> rafaelfeito: man xmodmap
[03:33] <gpled> overclucker: looking for color depth
[03:33] <RickH> I have a situation.  One PC upgraded the kernel from 2.6.20-16.29 to 2.6.20-16.31.  It broke the sound card.  2.6.20-15.27 still works, but 16.31 does not.  I have another PC with 16.29 image and headers.  How can I get them from other PC to broken one?
[03:33] <usser> NMajik: yep also where it says subsection display depth 24
[03:33] <SpudDogg> gpled, that changed my resolutions, but not to 1280x1024
[03:33] <RickH> What folders and/or files need to be copied over?
[03:33] <croweboy> does anyone know if its possible to get ubuntu to work with a XGI Volari family 1.06 graphics card
[03:33] <threefcata> hi everyone, how do i keep tomcat from starting at booting?
[03:34] <usser> NMajik: in modes add this "1280x1024@60"
[03:34] <threefcata> remove the script in init.d?
[03:34] <overclucker> gpled, that's not keymap related
[03:34] <funkja> Hi. I have a dell Vostro 1400 and I am running Gusty Tribe 5. My DVD drive does not work and stuff I see online tells me to load the piix module. Yet I get "FATAL: Module piix not found."
[03:34] <SpudDogg> gpled, i think i just need to run 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[03:34] <Gnea> RickH: look for the .deb files in /var/cache/apt/archives/
[03:34] <jrib> funkja: join #ubuntu+1 for help with gutsy
[03:34] <RickH> Gnea:  Thanks.
[03:34] <frogzoo> RickH: dpkg -L linux-image-2.6.20-15-generic
[03:34] <funkja> thanks
[03:34] <NMajik> usser: OK
[03:34] <SpudDogg> gpled, but i cant because im installing an OS at the moment :(
[03:35] <pgar23> anyone know how to dual monitor with 2 gfx cards?

[03:35] <Grungebunny> Hello I seem to be having an issue with Torrents.. nothing ever seems to download.. not even a single bit..
[03:35] <usser> NMajik: now try restarting X
[03:35] <gpled> overclucker: think you have my chat mixed with someone else.  have no idea what your talking about
[03:35] <usser> NMajik: save xorg.conf first
[03:35] <SpudDogg> Grungebunny, it's possible your tracker requires a certain client
[03:36] <usser> NMajik: and then do CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE
[03:36] <RickH> frogzoo:  How will that list help me?
[03:36] <overclucker> gpled, my bad, lol
[03:36] <pgar23> NMajik who r u talking to?
[03:36] <SpudDogg> Grungebunny, i would recommend installing bittornado, most trackers like that one
[03:36] <gpled> SpudDogg: your dpkg idea should work.  i sometimes have to do it
[03:36] <NMajik> pgar23: usser is helping me
[03:36] <SpudDogg> gpled, im just so damn scared to hose my system :/
[03:37] <pgar23> Nmajik do u have aim?
[03:37] <pgar23> or msn>
[03:37] <gpled> SpudDogg: no you got me thinking. how do you tell what color depth you are running?
[03:37] <croweboy> how do i make my text show up darker
[03:37] <gpled> s/no/now
[03:37] <rafaelfeito> frogzoo: thanks, but there's no answer at man xmodmap about what is keymap now...
[03:37] <gpled> croweboy: in what program?
[03:38] <croweboy> Xchat
[03:38] <Evanlec> okay, so i installed the nvidia driver from restricted drivers panel, blew up the display, how do i sanely go about getting the nvidia drivers?
[03:38] <_aaa> I'm running ubuntu 7.04, have Dell 725 printer, all hooked up but not working, where can I get help?
[03:38] <NMajik> usser: On a related note, how can you do a select all, paste in nano?
[03:38] <gpled> croweboy: Settings -> Preferences
[03:39] <NMajik> usser: This remote system is xubuntu and I'm not used to mousepad
[03:39] <pgar23> you can find info about the printer on ubuntuforums.org
[03:39] <mcherm> I could use some help. I'm trying to run UpdateManager to upgrade to 7.04 (FeistyFawn). But when I try it says I need to free up 300M in /usr. /usr has ~900M free. What gives?
[03:39] <SpudDogg> gpled, thats a good question...i'm sure someone knows though.  uncle google is no help on that
[03:39] <_aaa> okay, ty
[03:39] <usser> NMajik: dunno it always bugged me too
[03:39] <pgar23> DUAL MONITOR anyone?
[03:39] <usser> croweboy: linuxprinting.org might be of help
[03:40] <SpudDogg> NMajik, to copy/paste in nano, you have to cntrl+shift+c / v respectively
[03:40] <NMajik> SpudDogg: OK, thank you. How can I do a select all?
[03:40] <usser> croweboy: is it dell725?
[03:40] <croweboy> i went in to prefrences but its not exactly clear what effects the text collor
[03:40] <croweboy> not useing a printer
[03:41] <SpudDogg> NMajik, i dont think you can do that with the purpose of deleting.  you have to just cntl+k to delete each line at a time
[03:41] <croweboy> usser,,, talkin about text in the chat window
[03:41] <goldbond> is it possible to set chron jobs for root?
[03:41] <NMajik> SpudDogg: OK, thanks then
[03:41] <pgar23> is there any documentation online about dual monitoring with two graphics cards?
[03:41] <pgar23> anyone know any good url's?
[03:41] <SpudDogg> NMajik, but, if you're editing system files, i would not recommend deleting lines.  just use # to comment the lines you dont want
[03:41] <usser> croweboy: sorry
[03:41] <gpled> croweboy: try foreground
[03:41] <rafaelfeito> where I find keymaps-file on feisty?
[03:42] <SpudDogg> rafaelfeito, 'locate <filename>
[03:42] <croweboy> kk thanks gpled
[03:42] <gpled> np
[03:42] <NMajik> SpudDogg: I doing this a horrible, round-about way. But, now that I've started, I feel obligated to finish this way
[03:42] <gpled> goldbond: think you get to say what user you want it to run under
[03:42] <croweboy> hey
[03:42] <croweboy> still very light
[03:42] <usser> NMajik: so did it work?
[03:43] <rafaelfeito> SpudDogg: i already did this, but didn't find keymaps-file, could you help me?
[03:43] <overclucker> rafaelfeito, /etc/fonts/
[03:43] <gpled> croweboy: set you background to some light gray
[03:43] <croweboy> kk
[03:43] <SpudDogg> rafaelfeito, well, is keymaps-file actually the file name?
[03:44] <pgar23> DUAL MONITOR url's???
[03:44] <gpled> croweboy: i have my background set to #F0F0F0
[03:44] <rafaelfeito> SpudDogg: no, i'm using a program that needs my actual keymap file whre describes which keybord i'm using..etc
[03:44] <NMajik> usser: Sorry, I'm going slowly with this. I'll try to let you know in the next couple of minutes
[03:45] <gpled> foreground #000000
[03:45] <SpudDogg> rafaelfeito, try /usr/share/rdesktop/keymaps, or /usr/share/keymaps.  those are my best guess.  other than that, i have no idea
[03:46] <croweboy> i still cant seem to get my text to not show up as light grey color
[03:46] <josh_> hey
[03:46] <josh_> any gay or bi guys in here?
[03:46] <unagi> is it possible to write a script so that when a program that automatically saves a file before it crashes, crashes, the script locates the saved file and reopens it when the program crashes?

[03:48] <craigbass1976> anyone got an espon cx6000?  Ever since we changed the black ink, we get "check scanner status" when we run iscan
[03:48] <SpudDogg> rafaelfeito, there is a file at /usr/share/rdesktop/keymaps/pt-br  that is probably the one
[03:48] <craigbass1976> Didn't know if there were some reconfiguration voodoo we forgot to go through after the switch
[03:48] <SpudDogg> cant anyone kick josh_?

[03:49] <SpudDogg> Toma-, yea he is.  i didnt see that line :(
[03:49] <rafaelfeito> SpudDogg: i've tested, but didn't works
[03:49] <usser> NMajik: hm, ok
[03:50] <usser> NMajik: pbbly should have connected the screen in the first place =)
[03:50] <SpudDogg> rafaelfeito, man i have no idea then.  there are some really knowledgeable people around here.  keep asking, someone will help you
[03:50] <xjkx> how many extended partitions can i have
[03:50] <macd> is it normal on boot for a machine with multiple drives to have device assignments change on each boot, i.e. drive1 isnt always sda sometimes its sdc and so forth
[03:50] <rafaelfeito> SpudDogg: tnx anyway
[03:50] <macd> xjkx, I think the limit is in the 1000's
[03:50] <tonyyarusso> xjkx: "a lot" (I've never hit the limit, if there is one)
[03:51] <SpudDogg> macd, that can happen.  to make sure that doesnt happen, mount them with the UUID instead of /dev/<drive>
[03:51] <xjkx> i heard its one, and i couldnt create one more
[03:51] <devo> Is VMWare free?
[03:51] <n8r0n>  xjkx:  I am not sure that there is a limit
[03:51] <macd> SpudDogg, see, I do have the main drive done by UUID and it is the one changing constantly
[03:51] <n8r0n> devo: player and server are free
[03:51] <SpudDogg> devo, vmware is free for you and me, yes
[03:51] <ejh2> vmware server is free
[03:51] <xjkx> i think you are seeing it as logic partitions, i can create many, but extendes seems its only one :S
[03:51] <macd> xjkx, thats primary partitions
[03:51] <xjkx> primary can be four
[03:51] <SpudDogg> macd, there is a command to get the UUIDs for each device, but i cant remember right now
[03:51] <macd> one primary, then  on extended logical within that
[03:51] <usser> NMajik: what is suggest is to lower down the values of vertrefresh to 60 and Horizsync to 64
[03:52] <usser> in the monitor section
[03:52] <macd> SpudDogg, yeah I know it, but the drive moun ted via UUID's still changes
[03:52] <SpudDogg> macd, oic.  that's weird
[03:52] <SpudDogg> macd, sorry, i read your second to last line incorrectly
[03:52] <macd> its possible they all have to be by UUID for that work, thats my next option
[03:53] <macd> xjkx, I think I read what you said wrong too, yes only one extended partition per drive (logical)
[03:53] <macd> so one single extended then multiple logical partitions within that
[03:53] <NMajik> usser: Strange, I changed xorg.conf back to it's backup and restarted and now I can't ssh in
[03:54] <usser> NMajik: heh, do u have a monitor connected to it?
[03:54] <usser> NMajik: cause these things really do require a monitor
[03:54] <NMajik> usser: nope
[03:55] <NMajik> usser: Haha, I'm starting to get that impression
[03:55] <unagi> is it possible to write a script that automatically opens a program right after it crashes?
[03:55] <usser> NMajik: once u set it up u can trash it
[03:55] <|neon|> what is a good usenet news reader with a friendly gui?, thx
[03:55] <gogeta> unagi yes
[03:56] <SpudDogg> |neon|, i used to use klibido
[03:56] <death11284> eh..crap..i'm basically everyone else here..anyone have experience with radeon x1950 on ubuntu dapper?
[03:56] <usser> NMajik: heres the datasheet for your screen http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/monitors/84779/specs.htm
[03:56] <NMajik> usser: Haha, I restarted it again (manually this time) and I'm in via VNC
[03:56] <gce> trying to reinstall ubuntu feisty after failed apt-get upgrade wanna keep my dual boot config but the feisty installer does not show existing partitions.  How to get the installer to see existing partitions
[03:56] <usser> NMajik: with old x settings huh?
[03:57] <NMajik> usser: Yeah, I'm going to try to change them one more time.
[03:57] <unagi> gogeta how
[03:57] <gogeta> gce thats odd it should see any partations you have
[03:57] <usser>  NMajik: what is suggest is to lower down the values of vertrefresh to 60 and Horizsync to 64] 
[03:57] <|neon|> SpudDogg: kewl it seems that it would do what i need i just installed it and it ssems promising thx again
[03:58] <gce> gogeta: even when I select manual it doesn't show the existing partitons
[03:58] <gogeta> unagi well you have to wirhgt it to check for the prosses and if its not running to open it
[03:58] <NMajik> usser: Ok, will do
[03:58] <SpudDogg> |neon|, no prob
[03:58] <meoblast001> hi
[03:58] <gogeta> gce sounds like a cruppted partation
[03:58] <meoblast001> i would like 2 applications to start up with Ubuntu... how do i do this?
[03:59] <death11284> anyone wanna help with the nightmare of an AGP ATI card on dapper? : /
[03:59] <gce> gogeta: don't think so ... I can mount the partitions without problem via terminal window
[03:59] <NMajik> usser: so 30-64 and 60-120 ?
[03:59] <usser> NMajik: yep
[03:59] <gogeta> beiblast add them to the startup
[03:59] <gogeta> LOl
[03:59] <usser> NMajik: oh no 30-64 and just 60
[04:00] <NMajik> usser: ok. How would *you* restart X?
[04:00] <gogeta> neoblast are they command line or gui
[04:00] <usser> NMajik: i'd just do CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE
[04:01] <NMajik> usser: Should I see an immediate change? I'm having doubts that that keystroke is being sent properly
[04:01] <unagi_> so what would the command for checking a process be
[04:01] <unagi_> or could i do it with cat
[04:01] <croweboy> does anyone know how to make ubuntu run with an XGI Volari Family 1.06 graphics card
[04:01] <gogeta> neoblast you can add them to the gnome startup when you login if there guis
[04:01] <unagi_> or how would i get it to constantly check
[04:01] <usser> NMajik: this should disconnect u from vnc
[04:02] <usser> NMajik: if that dont work just restart the comp
[04:02] <gogeta> You'll find the tool on the System \ Preferences\ Sessions menu item
[04:02] <unagi_> gogeta any ideas?
[04:02] <n8r0n> neoblast: add them to the sessions
[04:02] <MrBlonde> *:  i am having a problem with repeating keys when i type in anything in X.  i have tried several things to fix it such as reconfiguring X, editing /etc/modules, and resetting the delay times, but nothing has worked.  can anyone offer other suggestions?
[04:02] <gogeta> unagi it should see them
[04:03] <MrBlonde> i should also mention that turning repeat keys off is not a good solution for me
[04:03] <gogeta> unless there not partations
[04:03] <makuseru> !tor
[04:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tor - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:03] <unagi_> what would the command be
[04:03] <NMajik> usser: OK... well I feel dumb
[04:03] <usser> NMajik: huh? why?
[04:03] <NMajik> usser: I'll just restart the darn thing
[04:03] <gogeta> are the image files or something
[04:03] <gogeta> they
[04:04] <NMajik> usser: That restarted my local machine
[04:04] <unagi_> maya files
[04:04] <usser> NMajik: ahahaha

[04:06] <dom_> does anyone know if the i810 driver supports glx 1.3?
[04:06] <unagi_> what would i search for
[04:06] <gu23gh> SpudDogg, I have installed the Desktop

[04:06] <gu23gh> seams rather too easy
[04:06] <ninnemana> can anyone tell me how i can install ubuntu without removing my video card at inital setup? i get an xserver error on start up
[04:07] <NMajik> usser: Well, I can connect with SSH, but VNC is shot again
[04:07] <SpudDogg> gu23gh, i would just use ssh to start the vnc server, then when done shut it back down for security reasons
[04:07] <astro76> gu23gh, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH
[04:07] <craigbass1976> What happened to iscan?  Removed it with apt, and now when I try to install it again, I get "no such package" or some such.
[04:08] <gu23gh> coool thanks guys; Problem now is i have got a dynamic IP and it changes, is there a tool so it automatically reconnects to the new ip ?
[04:08] <SpudDogg> gu23gh, in winblows i used to use no-ip.org, but i dont know of a linux client for it
[04:08] <croweboy> when i try to use my XGI Volari graphics card for ubuntu it says signal our of range when ubuntu starts to load ,, can someone help me figure out why

[04:09] <gu23gh> SpudDogg, Whats the client called ?
[04:09] <usser> NMajik: hm pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[04:09] <astro76> gu23gh, a lot of routers have support for dyndns.org built in, if you don't have one there are linux clients
[04:10] <SpudDogg> gu23gh, "No-IP DUC" or something like that
[04:10] <croweboy> when i try to use my XGI Volari graphics card for ubuntu it says signal our of range when ubuntu starts to load ,, can someone help me figure out why

[04:18] <MoLE_> monkeyBox, You will need to edit /etc/apt/source.list manually - I suggest using nano
[04:18] <m0> How do I kill everything and remove them from my processess
[04:18] <monkeyBox> What does it mean when apt says "The following packages have been kept back"?
[04:18] <m0> I tried killall eclipse it doens't work

[04:19] <Kr4t05> Okay, I have a wireless issue. Don't worry! I've all ready configured ndiswrapper and the like... I'm just having some connection-sharing woes.
[04:19] <cry0> Hey, does anybody know of a way to set a Terminal window off to the side in a way that, say I maximize a window, the terminal is still showing?
[04:19] <tatters> Gnea  on a live cd the drive mounts normally and is accessable ,it only after a recent update this error occured, I reinstalled updated and again same error , runnig fsk now
[04:20] <SpudDogg> VMWare rules!
[04:20] <Netham45> anyone know any remote administration tools for Ubuntu/Windows?
[04:20] <m0> cafuego: I accidenly edited the "eclipse" /usr/bin/eclipse to run eclipse, so it ran it infinitly
[04:20] <Netham45> I have webmin on my Ubuntu server
[04:20] <cafuego> m0: killall -s 9 eclipse

[04:20] <Kr4t05> Netham45: ssh. :P
[04:20] <Netham45> MoLE_,  I have SSH to both the Windows and the Ubuntu servers
[04:20] <andrew_> what is chmod to make all access?
[04:20] <cafuego> m0: Did you ctrl-c or ctrl-z the shell?
[04:20] <nytemyst> hello everyone
[04:20] <Gnea> tatters: did the kernel update?
[04:21] <andrew_> what is chmod to make all access?
[04:21] <MoLE_> Netham45, so what are you trying to do that ssh can't
[04:21] <m0> cafuego: no
[04:21] <andrew_> what is chmod to make all access?
[04:21] <Kr4t05> andrew_: 777, is all permissions for all users. Not very safe, though.
[04:21] <andrew_> anyone please?
[04:21] <john> gnea: i receive 404 when clicking the link to mafia.or.id
[04:21] <Gnea> !repeat | andrew_
[04:21] <ubotu> andrew_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[04:21] <cry0> I am basically trying to set up a terminal panel at the top/side of the screen
[04:21] <overclucker> chmod 0777
[04:21] <m0> cafuego: now it works, the -s
[04:21] <TyphoidHippo> Anybody know why samba transfers might go about 20 times slower in Ubuntu than in Windows? I tried a few things suggested in forums a while back, with no luck.  Figured I'd ask in here real quick before I try switching my entire network over to NFS (with my fingers crossed that that will be faster) sorry this is so long...
[04:21] <m0> cafuego: thank you sir
[04:21] <cafuego> m0: np :-)
[04:21] <Kr4t05> andrew_: Also, yeah, what the bot said.
[04:21] <Netham45> well, SSH is slow and painful.
[04:21] <Netham45> and it trys eating my soul.
[04:21] <andrew_> that doesnt work
[04:21] <Netham45> andrew_, chmod 777 <filename>
[04:21] <m0> cafuego: it was annoying luckly ubuntu is smart , and if it sees a lot of processes it stops them all (of the same process)
[04:22] <andrew_> are you sure it is chmod  777?
[04:22] <andrew_> i know
[04:22] <andrew_> it isnt working
[04:22] <Netham45> are you root?
[04:22] <andrew_> yah
[04:22] <andrew_> it looks like it does but it doesn't
[04:22] <m0> cafuego: it was just rexecuting at lightspeed the bash script which points to that same bashscripts :x
[04:22] <sanguinarius> andrew_>  chmod 744 ;)

[04:23] <andrew_> it says it is still there
[04:23] <andrew_> but in explorer it isnt.. any ideas?
[04:24] <overclucker> andrew f5
[04:24] <Gnea> john: it's a commercial (meaning: you have to PAY for it) set of printer drivers for linux for canon and some other printers
[04:24] <andrew_> what do you mean?
[04:24] <cry0> Sorry to repeat, but has anybody heard of trying to make a terminal panel?  I want kinda like a split screen, having a terminal window at the top and the rest of the screen below it.
[04:24] <Kr4t05> Alright, bare with me... I have to machines: a desktop with one wired and one wireless network adapter, and a laptop, with a disabled wired and an installed wireless network adapter. I've been reading and re-reading the WiFiDocs most of the day, today, and I can't seem to get the desktop to share the connection with my laptop.
[04:24] <tatters> Gnea:yup all update went well can u look this thread over it seems relevent https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/98751
[04:24] <overclucker> andrew_, refresh
[04:24] <Kr4t05> Any clues?
[04:24] <jrib> !screen > cry0 (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:24] <andrew_> You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "disk".
[04:24] <andrew_> thats what it says
[04:24] <jrib> cry0: oh wait, I don't understand what you mean
[04:24] <MoLE_> !screen
[04:24] <ubotu> screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[04:24] <john> gnea: well any solution to get?
[04:25] <Gnea> john: try this one: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1380393
[04:25] <opt01> serbaguna
[04:25] <TyphoidHippo> If it is of help or relevance - the problem is only with samba, and only with Ubuntu clients...  This laptop (running ubuntu) transfers over FTP and HTML from my server plenty fast, and any windows machines that may find themselves in my house can transfer files via samba to and from my server (which is running Ubuntu, also) plenty fast as well.
[04:25] <tatters> Gnea: its a bit over my head the part about normal behaviour
[04:25] <andrew_> anyone? a file is not letting me even see it now
[04:25] <nytemyst> how do you get to other rooms
[04:25] <andrew_> how do you chmod it
[04:25] <jrib> nytemyst: /join #other-room
[04:25] <overclucker> andrew_, chmod -R 0777 /media/disk
[04:25] <tatters> this is an intentional behavior from the maintainer of HAL
[04:25] <SpudDogg> are there any programs out there to rip dvds, better than dvd::rip?
[04:25] <cry0> jrib: I want a terminal window acting like the GNome panel

[04:25] <overclucker> andrew_, chmod -R andrew /media/disk
[04:25] <ravtux> hi
[04:26] <usser> Kr4t05: u want the desktop to act as a gateway to the internet?
[04:26] <andrew_> i OMG OMG THANKS SOOO MUCh
[04:26] <ravtux> I need a bit of help
[04:26] <Kr4t05> SpudDogg: AcidRip has never failed me yet. It's simpler then DVD::Rip
[04:26] <john> gena: this for pixma mp760 does this work for ip1000?
[04:26] <Kr4t05> usser: Yessir.
[04:26] <MoLE_> cry0, like the terminal in quake?
[04:26] <andrew_> it had all my music :-P
[04:26] <usser> nytemyst: /join #roomname
[04:26] <SpudDogg> Kr4t05, how's the quality though?
[04:26] <overclucker> no prob ;)
[04:26] <usser> Kr4t05: i assume desktop runs ubuntu?
[04:26] <jrib> cry0: yakuake maybe?
[04:27] <Gnea> tatters: tried this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/98751/comments/4
[04:27] <MoLE_> cry0, what jrib suggested
[04:27] <Kr4t05> SpudDogg: Depends on the settings you use. If you know what you're doing, you can get pretty good quality. I've used it serveral times, the automatic settings produce a good quality file compressed to about 700MB.
[04:27] <tatters> Gnea: fsk has given me message /lost+found not found.  Create<y>?
[04:27] <cry0> Not quite sure... Basically, I want a terminal window that acts just like the GNome panel, sitting above all the windows.
[04:27] <Kr4t05> usser: Kubuntu, and Windows dual-booting.
[04:27] <usser> Kr4t05: i think u need to dig in the linux bridging docs, i've never done such a setup
[04:28] <Kr4t05> Rest assured, Windows gets very little uptime, these days.
[04:28] <usser> Kr4t05: but may i suggest buying a router which are not at all that pricey
[04:28] <tatters> do I need a lost+found ?
[04:28] <Kr4t05> Only to scratch the occasional gaming itch.
[04:28] <SpudDogg> Kr4t05, I tried acidrip before, but i suppose i couldnt get it working or something.  i HATE running VMware with windows just for AutoGK
[04:28] <jrib> cry0: if that's what you want, then just right click on your terminal and hit "always on top" after making it the dimensions you want
[04:29] <Kr4t05> usser: Hrm... I looked at them at Walmart, perhaps they just like to overcharge on electronics, though.
[04:29] <jrib> cry0: ah, tilda is like yakuake too if you want to try those
[04:29] <Pelo> tatters, if you remove it  the system will make another one
[04:29] <cry0> But then it blocks the top part of the full screen windows, I want the windows to maximize to the bottom of the terminal
[04:29] <usser> Kr4t05: wireless one costs about 50-60 bucks
[04:29] <tatters> ok then I guess no harm removing
[04:29] <cry0> I literally want a terminal panel
[04:30] <Kr4t05> usser: Although, the knowledge gained through this will be greatly beneficial for when I do decide to build my own router. :)
[04:30] <jrib> cry0: see if either of those two programs do it, I've never used them so I can't tell you
[04:30] <usser> Kr4t05: yea its true
[04:30] <Gnea> tatters: uhm.... you said you could mount the drive on a livecd?
[04:31] <Kr4t05> usser: That, and good ones are much more expensive than $50, from what I'm seeing here.
[04:31] <tatters> yes it mouns fine live cd then mounted fine after install,,only after upgrading did the problem reoccur
[04:31] <Gnea> tatters: yeah, i hope that doesn't harm the rest of the data on there...
[04:32] <tatters> Gnea: I got a      back up of whole drive locked away :)

[04:38] <cry0> Basically, I want a terminal screen working on a panel
[04:38] <Pelo> slavik,  it does for me
[04:38] <diatribe> cry0 your best bet ould be to set margins for your desktop where no window can be placed, then set a terminal to that size and place ti there, using devilspie to keep size/sticky state/etc
[04:38] <mneptok> pending: who uses FTP in 2007?

[04:39] <mactimes> Pelo: usser: What would be the difference between VMware Player and VMware Server?
[04:40] <slavik> Pelo: any suggestions?
[04:40] <Pelo> cry0, right click the applet,  select properties or preferences see if any options apply
[04:40] <diatribe> openbox or xfce would be better suited to your request
[04:40] <slavik> mactimes: vmware player cannot create vm images
[04:40] <cry0> Or how do I set margins on my desktop?  I already looked through that Pelo, but thanks
[04:40] <usser> mactimes: exactly ))
[04:40] <slavik> and vmserver can actually be used for production on a server, where many people can use it
[04:41] <Pelo> mactimes, for player you need to have a ready made virtual machine,   in server you can make your own  ie you set up the machine and install the os you want on it
[04:41] <diatribe> like I said I dunno on gnome, in xfce it is in the control panel and openbox you can use obconf I believe
[04:41] <diatribe> I'm quite sure it is possible though
[04:41] <jrib> ramza3: are you on feisty btw?
[04:41] <mactimes> slavik: usser Pelo Oh, Ok.  I guess I'll take the server then =)  Thank you very much for your help! =)
[04:41] <diatribe> if it is in gnome control center you would be looking for window margins/borders something like that
[04:41] <slavik> mactimes: np, server is free anyway :P
[04:42] <tatters> what the difference between pmount and mount?
[04:42] <ramza3> jrib, yes, fiesty; http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36522/
[04:42] <mactimes> slavik: =)  I don't need the player if I have the server, right?
[04:42] <Pelo> slavik, I have two hdd, one ide , one sata,  ubuntu on the sata, sata as the boot hdd in the bios, windows on the ide ( when I installed windows I had the ide as boot hdd) ,  when I installed ubuntu the bios was set to boot the sata and the installation did all the work
[04:42] <slavik> mactimes: correct
[04:42] <mactimes> slavik: Thank you a lot!! =)
[04:43] <slavik> Pelo: interesting, when I chmod into the isntall, grub doesn't see any disks
[04:43] <jrib> ramza3: weird, you have no comments at the top of the file?  /usr/share/mime/packages/freedesktop.org.xml indicates it looks for -- at the beginning of files to conclude it is a vhdl doc
[04:43] <tatters> hmm I cannot work out if this a feature or a bug
[04:44] <diatribe> tatters: ?
[04:44] <Pelo> slavik, get the grub super cd , and I think it should allow you to remake a menu and proper options
[04:44] <nytemyst> hi everybody
[04:44] <usser> nytemyst: hello
[04:44] <slavik> Pelo: where?
[04:45] <tatters> Concerning fixed hard drives ( previous comment ), this is an intentional behavior from the maintainer of HAL Martin Pitt, if PolicyKit is not included (and this is the case in Feisty) :
[04:45] <slavik> Pelo: by booting from the cd?

[04:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about yahoo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:46] <Pelo> slavik,  I think somwhere toward the end of the last link,  you get a link for the super grub cd ,  you boot from that and you get a butload of options
[04:46] <usser> nytemyst: great, whats your problem?
[04:46] <Pelo> slavik, no gutsy doesn't boot for me ,  at all , but that might have to do with the fact that I haven'T insatlled it
[04:47] <diatribe> pelo: ;p
[04:47] <nytemyst> i cant load yahoo   says it aint supported
[04:47] <diatribe> nytemyst what client are you using
[04:47] <slavik> Pelo: I meant the livecd
[04:47] <tatters> Gnea: gnome-mount --device /dev/hdb1 --mount-point store gnome-mount 0.6 resolved this issue
[04:47] <usser> !pidgin | nytemyst
[04:47] <ubotu> nytemyst: pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[04:47] <Pelo> nytemyst, you mean yahou instant messager ?
[04:47] <skinnypuppy1334> What do you have to do to edit desklets?
[04:47] <nytemyst> ubantu
[04:48] <Pelo> slavik,  you can't do it from the live cd, you need the supergrub cd or whatever it is called
[04:48] <usser> skinnypuppy1334: u have to know python to edit actuall apps
[04:48] <Pelo> skinnypuppy1334, open the source for the desklets as root probably
[04:48] <tatters> hmm what exactly then does gnome-mount --device /dev/hdb1 --mount-point store gnome-mount 0.6   Do
[04:48] <slavik> k
[04:48] <krammer> how can I enable 3d acceleration with kde manager?
[04:48] <Zemus> Hey everyone, is pidgin not in the repos yet?
[04:49] <Pelo> tatters, where are you getting this ?
[04:49] <kkathman> Zemus:  its not, no
[04:49] <usser> Zemus: nope and wont be
[04:49] <Pelo> krammer,  you'd have to ask in #kubuntu
[04:49] <skinnypuppy1334> usser how about for basic things like changing the size? I don't want to create but what to open with?
[04:49] <tatters> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/98751
[04:49] <kkathman> Zemus:  use the gaim-beta instead
[04:49] <krammer> can you direct me please?
[04:49] <skinnypuppy1334> I can rightclick view source on a desklet but can't edit it
[04:49] <usser> skinnypuppy1334: well usually they are simple renamed zip files
[04:49] <CompJunki> How do i get my berly drivers working again, all i did was a restart and they dont work ?
[04:50] <Pelo> tatters, man gnome-mount
[04:50] <nytemyst> anyone from mo
[04:50] <CompJunki> software rather
[04:50] <Zemus> kkathman, usser, I just reinstalled ubuntu, and I remember easily installing pidgin in like, 5 minutes... I just can't remember how I did it now. Perhaps I found a deb? What do you think is the easiest way for me to go about that?
[04:50] <skinnypuppy1334> .display files?
[04:50] <phpusmo> how can I change the root pass?
[04:50] <CompJunki> is it recommended to use gksu nvidia-settings
[04:50] <kkathman> Zemus:  Im sure you can go to their site and get what you need probably to install or compile
[04:50] <krammer> passwd
[04:50] <Pelo> CompJunki, ask in #beryl
[04:50] <CompJunki> ok
[04:50] <CompJunki> thanks
[04:51] <phpusmo> krammer, I am not a sudoer
[04:51] <kousotu> anyone know how I could FTP to an xbox360 hooked on on Lan dirrectlyto my wireless Laptop?
[04:51] <phpusmo> and I don't know the pass for root
[04:51] <krammer> ty
[04:51] <wolferine> evening
[04:51] <phpusmo> or any other sudoer account
[04:51] <Zemus> Ah, I remember now. I got it from getdeb.net. And yeah, I tried to compile from source, but there were errors (as always).
[04:51] <nytemyst> hi wolferine
[04:51] <Zemus> :P
[04:51] <Frogzoo> phpusmo: don't use root - it's pointless
[04:51] <phpusmo> Frogzoo, well I need to be a sudoer
[04:51] <wolferine> hey nytemyst
[04:51] <Pelo> phpusmo,  same as your user password, there is no actual root in ubuntu  you just use sudo to run the commands
[04:51] <phpusmo> or I can't do anything
[04:51] <phpusmo> Pelo, my user account is not sudoed
[04:51] <nytemyst> hey how do you get an email account on ubantu???
[04:51] <kkathman> Zemus:  not surprising - Im not sure what the delay is in getting in the repos tbh - its in other distros already
[04:52] <Frogzoo> phpusmo: boot to recovery mode, & add yourself to admin group 'sudo adduser phpusmo admin'
[04:52] <Pelo> phpusmo, who installed ubuntu on your comp ?
[04:52] <Zemus> kkathman, usser said it never will be? :P
[04:52] <phpusmo> Frogzoo, when I go into recovery mode it asks for the root pass
[04:52] <Dekkard> o: don't use root - it's pointless
[04:52] <Dekkard> 22:51 < phpusmo> Frogzoo, well I need to be a sudoer
[04:52] <Dekkard> 22:51 < wolferine> hey nytemyst
[04:52] <usser> Zemus: in gutsy it will
[04:52] <kkathman> Zemus:  oh really .. hmm hard to believe
[04:52] <phpusmo> Pelo, teacher
[04:52] <Zemus> kkathman, no idea
[04:52] <Zemus> usser, cool
[04:52] <wolferine> Dekkard, arrow up works better :P
[04:53] <Pelo> phpusmo, then I tink you need to ask your teacher to give you admin privileges
[04:53] <kkathman> most can hold off 1 more month I reckon, Zemus :)
[04:53] <kkathman> the gaim-beta works just as well
[04:53] <nytemyst> hey dekkard
[04:53] <kkathman> the only diff is the look and feel mostly
[04:53] <phpusmo> Pelo, yeah but he doesn't remember the root pass himself
[04:53] <Mr-Snick> Can anyone please tell me how to install VmWare workstation on ubuntu feisty?
[04:53] <nytemyst> how r u guys tonight
[04:53] <CompJunki> anyone on this channel had problems with beryl after install and reboot?\
[04:54] <usser> Mr-Snick: download x64 tar.gz from vmware site
[04:54] <CompJunki> well not after
[04:54] <nickrud> !vmware
[04:54] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[04:54] <CompJunki> but when you reboot
[04:54] <Zemus> kkathman, it's installed ;)
[04:54] <usser> Mr-Snick: extract it and run the install script
[04:54] <Pelo> Mr-Snick, you'll need the source or a deb file , I guess you can get it from the vmware site but I think you need to pay for it
[04:54] <SkareCrow> I have 2 servers. I have 1 10/100 NIC and 1 gigabit NIC on each server. I run a CAT5 from the router to server 1 and I run a CAT5 from the router to server 2 then I run a CAT6 from server 1 to server 2. Server 1 is connected to the internet, Server 2 is. If I unplug the CAT6 from server 1 the internet connection drops, I can no longer download packages, etc... until I plug it back in. But the CAT5 is what comes from the router.
[04:54] <Frogzoo> CompJunki: frequently, beryl's a bit hit & miss
[04:54] <Mr-Snick> h ok
[04:54] <phpusmo> ?
[04:55] <Pelo> SkareCrow, I think you might have better luck asking for help on this in #networking
[04:55] <SkareCrow> Yea, figured I should ask there.
[04:55] <CompJunki> Frogzoo:  what can i do about it ?
[04:55] <phpusmo> Pelo, my teacher himself doesn't remember the pass
[04:55] <jaime> ok so I am running a 64bit system over here, does that mean I will need to download w64codecs to play .wmv files?
[04:55] <Frogzoo> CompJunki: check the forums/google for a fix - usually it's versions of video driver/beryl
[04:55] <Zemus> jaime, no.
[04:56] <jaime> w32codecs are good?
[04:56] <Frogzoo> SkareCrow: your routing sux
[04:56] <Zemus> jaime, yep
[04:56] <jaime> word pimp
[04:56] <Pelo> phpusmo, I don'T have a solution for you,  unless you boot the live cd , backup yoru data, reinstall yourself and make sure you remember the passwords
[04:56] <Zemus> jaime, hahahaha
[04:56] <CompJunki> Frogzoo:  what ?
[04:56] <phpusmo> Pelo, oh so there is no other way?
[04:57] <Pelo> phpusmo, I don'T know of one,  and the point of passwords are pretty much to keep ppl form doing what you would need to do
[04:57] <nickrud> Mr-Snick: that wiki page is out of date, it's available from the feisty-commercial repo :  add the line    deb http://archives.canonical.com/ubuntu/ feisty-commercial main   to your sources and install vmware-server
[04:58] <Kousotu> anyone know how I could FTP to an xbox360 hooked on on Lan dirrectlyto my wireless Laptop?
[04:58] <CompJunki> Frogzoo:  i dunno its the latest i install directly from the link i was told to use
[04:58] <Pelo> Kousotu, try the forum
[04:58] <CompJunki> but still no luck
[04:58] <jaime> ok so I need the w32codecs and libdvdcss codecs, and they are illegal, what will honestly happen if i download them?
[04:58] <Kousotu> ok, u.. might I add, and keep ubuntu frm thinking it's a router
[04:58] <nickrud> jaime: the come knocking
[04:59] <nytemyst> hey are they other rooms you can go to
[04:59] <jaime> like 100% for sure?  And I get sued or what?
[04:59] <Pelo> jaime, the mpaa and riaa will come to your house and kill your pets
[04:59] <[set] > how do you connect to a WPA network? I only see a WEP password type when i go to the properties of my wifi interface
[04:59] <jaime> man, good thing all i have is a goldfish
[04:59] <anon2000> hey, quick question. on gnome-look.org, what is the difference between GTK2 themes and metacity themes? they both seem to change the look of the same things, but theyre in different categories so theyre obviously different.. somehow
[04:59] <[set] > my goldfish got pregnant and died
[04:59] <nickrud> jaime: flush him, he'll prefer it in the long run
[04:59] <jaime> ok let me rephrase the question
[04:59] <Pelo> jaime,  I would not sacrifice my goldfishes for music
[05:00] <john> where can i find canon channel
[05:00] <jaime> am i in the same amount of danger downloading movies as I am downloading these codecs?
[05:00] <jrib> anon2000: gtk2 is for buttons and other controls, metacity is for window borders
[05:00] <Pelo> jaime,  I know the dvd one is illigal in some areas , but I didnT' now about the win32codecs
[05:00] <[set] > anyone know how to connect to WPA network?
[05:00] <nickrud> anon2000: metacity changes the borders, gtk2 themes change the appearance of the pixels inside
[05:00] <Netham45> does anyone know a program I can use to ping a specific IP every hour or so and make a log on the speed/connection status?
[05:00] <[set] > Netham45: create a script
[05:01] <[set] > with bash
[05:01] <jaime> i just opened up automatix 2 for the first time and the first message i read is how they will own my life if i download these codecs
[05:01] <nickrud> !automatix | jaime
[05:01] <ubotu> jaime: 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)
[05:01] <Pelo> jaime,  we donT like automatix here ,  you can insall all it provides eaitly enough from repos and deb files
[05:01] <nickrud> !medibuntu | jaime get those from here:
[05:01] <ubotu> jaime get those from here:: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[05:02] <jaime> I know, I know, the only reason I got it is to install these damn codecs, because you cant get them anywhere else
[05:02] <jrib> jaime: yes you can
[05:02] <jaime> what what what?
[05:02] <jaime> i was lied to
[05:02] <anon2000> ah i see, thanks jrib and nickrud ... all this time i had only been downloading metacity themes, i just discovered that i was missing a lot
[05:02] <jrib> jaime: read what nickrud just had the bot say
[05:02] <narothepharoh> have been having a number of troubles with ubuntu. I do like it I just cant depend on it it freezes alot and I have had to reinstall like 4 times, now my dvd/cd drives are not being read. I am fairly new to linux a former windows user I am very familiar with that os. I really dont know what to ask you accept if you know how I can fix these issues. Any help would be very much appreciated.
[05:02] <nickrud> jaime: and that's just one of the ways
[05:02] <FFForever> how do i use rsync to download ubuntu?
[05:03] <jaime> wow, good god, its like microsoft hates anyone that doesn't hug on their hang low
[05:03] <Pelo> FFForever, I don'T think that's what rsync is for
[05:03] <macd> not quite
[05:03] <d4rkmonkey> SELECT password FROM users WHERE email= $_POST['email']  <--- that make sense?
[05:03] <[set] > WPA network, how?
[05:03] <d4rkmonkey> oops
[05:03] <d4rkmonkey> sorry wrong channel
[05:03] <macd> FFForever, you could use wget
[05:03] <FFForever> rsync won't work for me...
[05:03] <[set] > lol d4rkmonkey
[05:03] <nickrud> FFForever: I don't think it's available that way; or torrents are popular and helpful
[05:03] <d4rkmonkey> shhhh
[05:03] <[set] > that works though
[05:03] <FFForever> i mean wget....

[05:03] <ubotu> [set] : Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:03] <jaime> so get rid of automatix right now?
[05:04] <macd> FFForever, rsync isnt for downloading, its for syncing backups across multiple hosts
[05:04] <FFForever> i need rsync lol
[05:04] <narothepharoh> hello can neone help me?
[05:04] <Pelo> jaime,  that would be best
[05:04] <FFForever> ok..., it can still download :D
[05:04] <Pelo> FFForever, man rsync
[05:04] <nickrud> jaime: yes, you will be happy you did in about a month and a half
[05:04] <macd> FFForever, if you need to install it, 'sudo apt-get install rsync'
[05:04] <macd> !info rsync
[05:04] <ubotu> rsync: fast remote file copy program (like rcp). In component main, is standard. Version 2.6.9-3ubuntu1.1 (feisty), package size 255 kB, installed size 500 kB
[05:04] <FFForever> i have it :D
[05:04] <macd> you just said you need rsync
[05:04] <FFForever> can i use rsync to download just 1 file?
[05:05] <nickrud> does ubuntu provide rsync?
[05:05] <ari_stress> morning
[05:05] <jaime> so sudo apt-get remove automatix2?
[05:05] <john> do we have dev here that can help me how to install my canon printer pls send help
[05:05] <macd> FFForever, you cant use rsync to download from ubuntu areas.
[05:05] <nickrud> I mean access to the disks?
[05:05] <don_pucci> can anyone here help me with network manager?
[05:05] <Pelo> FFForever, as far as I know rsync is to "sync" files on diffrent devices
[05:05] <macd> FFForever, rsync requires user accounts with access on both machines to work, its NOT a download client.
[05:05] <Pelo> don_pucci, it is better if you ask specific questions
[05:05] <anon2000> automatix is rather useless nowadays, i used to use it back on previous releases to install codecs but even that's automated in ubuntu now..

[05:10] <Pelo> Nighthawk420,  and did you try the binaries ?
[05:10] <linux_user400354> when is goosty goose going to be stable
[05:11] <narothepharoh> pelo here is the errormount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
[05:11] <narothepharoh> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
[05:11] <narothepharoh>        missing codepage or other error
[05:11] <narothepharoh>        in some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[05:11] <narothepharoh>        dmesg | tail  or so
[05:11] <nickrud> linux_user400354: when it stops drinking, I guess
[05:11] <Pelo> narothepharoh, what command do you use to mount ? or does it mount automaticaly ?
[05:11] <narothepharoh> pelo it is pretty old but it seems to work good
[05:11] <Pelo> narothepharoh, from what you are saying I wouldn'T say it works pretty good
[05:12] <don_pucci> too many people in here to get a response :(
[05:12] <Pelo> don_pucci,  too few helpers
[05:12] <nickrud> narothepharoh: do that tail -f /var/log/syslog thing I mentioned; it'll get you the "useful info"
[05:12] <don_pucci> yes...that too
[05:12] <narothepharoh> pelo i cant even open the drive. i go to computer and try to open the drive or drives and it gives me the message. it has worked in the past it has just recently started
[05:12] <Nighthawk420> Pelo wat binaries?
[05:13] <Pelo> don_pucci,  repeat your query periodicaly,  but understand that the support here comes from other users like you,  we don'T know everything
[05:13] <nickrud> don_pucci: did you right click the icon, and turn on wireless?
[05:13] <macd> don_pucci, you should left click then click manual config then disable manual
[05:13] <don_pucci> yes..wireless works fine
[05:13] <Pelo> !ati > Nighthawk420  check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[05:13] <don_pucci> i am unable to disable manual...there is no such option
[05:13] <macd> i.e. click manual config, select your adapter, then select dhcp, rather than static
[05:14] <don_pucci> it is dhcp macd
[05:14] <macd> then, whats the problem?
[05:14] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  would you say it started since the last kernel update ?
[05:14] <don_pucci> wireless works fine...but i have no options to join or even search for other wireless networks
[05:14] <Nighthawk420> Pelo, will that fix it?
[05:14] <narothepharoh> nickrud that doesnt work
[05:14] <narothepharoh> pelo yes i think so
[05:14] <nickrud> narothepharoh: no output when you put in the cd?
[05:14] <macd> don_pucci, you havent been messiing around in /etc/network/interfaces have you?
[05:14] <Pelo> Nighthawk420, I don'T know if it will but that is the next step
[05:15] <don_pucci> macd..no
[05:15] <narothepharoh> nickrud there is nothing
[05:15] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  try rebooting and grom grub select the previous kernel,  should be the 3rd option from the top
[05:15] <macd> don_pucci, I know on my feisty laptop if there is only one visible AP I dont get a list of AP's
[05:15] <macd> it just connects to the only one available
[05:15] <jaime> Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[05:15] <jaime> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[05:15] <jaime> is only available from another source
[05:15] <jaime> E: Package w32codecs has no installation candidate
[05:15] <don_pucci> i posted the prob in the forums under http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=543740&highlight=networkmanager
[05:15] <don_pucci> i know for sure there are other networks
[05:15] <jaime> no matter where i try to download the w32 codecs
[05:15] <jaime> it doesn't work, any suggestions?
[05:16] <don_pucci> just cannot view them like the windows checker can
[05:16] <Gumby> quick question for people.  Can anyone tell me if it matters whether I am trying to gather/inject/crack wep with a wireless b card.  obviously it will be slower but does it really matter?
[05:16] <Pelo> jaime,   go in synaptic and install all the gstreamer 10 you see
[05:16] <nickrud> jaime: did you go to http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repository.php and follow the instructions?
[05:16] <Gumby> whoops, lol.  wrong channel
[05:16] <macd> don_pucci, are you using kde?
[05:16] <don_pucci> gnome
[05:16] <jaime> i went to the website and followed the instructiosn
[05:16] <Nighthawk420> im gunna go try this
[05:16] <narothepharoh> pelo there is a bunch of different crap when i reboot now too all these different options to boot from are you sure it will be there
[05:16] <moritz> as long as the card is supported
[05:17] <macd> don_pucci, could you pastebin the output of 'cat /etc/network/interfaces' for me
[05:17] <newubuntuser> may i ask question
[05:17] <whta> so will this fglrx update finally make my ati card not suck?
[05:17] <Pelo> narothepharoh, it will be in the boot menu , where you chose your os ,
[05:17] <nickrud> jaime: put your /etc/apt/sources.list on a pastebin, please
[05:17] <Pelo> newubuntuser, yes you may
[05:17] <jaime> umm, you mean copy my sources list and put it on here?
[05:17] <nickrud> jaime: yes, on paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:18] <narothepharoh> pelo i updated from synaptic a bunch of different stuff thats when it all started and when i got more options to boot from
[05:18] <jturek> hey, my Gnome session is slow, when i drag windows accross the screen, its slow to render... what would cause this?  I have an intel 915 video card Gutsy
[05:18] <newubuntuser> i have problem, im trying to write to a usb drive formatted in ntfs , it tells me i dont have write permissions, im using the latest version of ubuntu
[05:18] <goldbond> i am trying to write an echo statement to log my backups. how do i include the date?
[05:18] <narothepharoh> pelo i will try and i will get back asap to let you know
[05:18] <Frogzoo> jturek: glxinfo |grep vendor
[05:18] <Pelo> narothepharoh, that is what I am wondering about , so I am suggesting that you boot the previous kernel,  you can do so when you get to the boot menu , it should be the 3rd option from the top
[05:19] <don_pucci> macd..i pasted in PM
[05:19] <macd> I dont get PM's use pastebin plz

[05:21] <Pelo> jplove71,  you don't send triggers to other ppl when you want the info for yourself
[05:21] <jplove71> Pelo, Xinerama won't work for me.  Already tried it.

[05:22] <macd> don_pucci, then restart network-manager
[05:22] <nickrud> jaime: each distribution compiles their packages to work together; when you start mixing from different distribution, things start to conflict. Sarge is from debian, and an old debian at that; many of those packages can and will break your machine.

[05:23] <jaime> so how do I get to my sources.list, can i do it through the konsole?
[05:23] <larry1981> hi, anybody can help me with a ltsp problem ?
[05:24] <Pelo> jplove71, look up your videocard model in the forum that's the only thing I can think of
[05:24] <macd> don_pucci, 'sudo cp /etc/network/interfaces /etc/network/interface.old'
[05:24] <youknowme> whats a good temp monitoring program?
[05:24] <jplove71> Pelo, I'm running dual 7600GTs
[05:24] <IdleOne> jaime: /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:24] <Pelo> larry1981,  asking specific quesitons is more likely to get you help
[05:24] <macd> everyone has questions, but they know your answer isnt right ;)
[05:24] <Pelo> jplove71, don't tell me , I don'T know about this stuff, check in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org
[05:24] <macd> jplove71, use nvidia-settings-manager
[05:25] <macd> jplove71, applications --> system tools --> nvidia settings
[05:25] <macd> assuming you use the nvidia BLOB
[05:25] <jturek> Frogzoo: is there a way to get ubuntu to detect things like it never knew before?  For example on fist install, things were fine
[05:25] <slavik> so, how easy is it to get nvidia drivers working? does the restricted driver manager have the latest nvidia driver?
[05:25] <jaime> idleone, just type that in the konsole?
[05:25] <macd> jturek, that happens every boot.
[05:25] <Nighthawk420_> i tried that and i cant get the files cuz i dont have a connection yet
[05:25] <larry1981> Well, when I boot my laptop from LAN, it load edubuntu thin client, but then when gnome is suppose to appear on screen, i see a dark spot on the middle of the screen then the screen become darker, darker, darker untile it is almost all black
[05:25] <macd> youknowme, lmsensors.
[05:25] <IdleOne> jaime: you want to edit the file type sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:25] <Stevo> does anyone know what might be causing my screen to go black (like it turned off black) at bootup?  i can hit ctrl+alt+bckspc and the CLI shows briefly.  i eventually have to power down via the power button.  the CLI is shown at that moment as well, but for only a moment.
[05:25] <youknowme> slavik, yes, its fairly straightforward
[05:25] <jturek> macd: can i get Ubuntu to froget my settings though, so on reboot it makes a new xorg.conf?
[05:26] <nickrud> jaime: gedit /etc/apt/sources.list ; that will open it read only, and you can copy it from there. How'd you get those extra source lines in?
[05:26] <slavik> youknowme: because it doesn't usually have latest fglrx :P
[05:26] <macd> jturek, just run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[05:26] <Stevo> the last error i see is that timidity isn't configured, but what's that got to do with my screen?
[05:26] <MicrosoftSpy> Anyone had any experience with Gutsy and Dual Monitors
[05:26] <Frogzoo> jturek: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:26] <macd> MicrosoftSpy, what video card do you use, and video driver?
[05:26] <slavik> MicrosoftSpy: I wish I did :( gutsy5 livecd won't boot for me
[05:26] <Pelo> MicrosoftSpy,  anything gutsy related should be directed to #ubuntu+1
[05:27] <MicrosoftSpy> macd: NVIDIA non prop driver GEFORCE 8400 GS video
[05:27] <Nighthawk420_> does gutsy do a better job with ati cards?
[05:27] <jturek> ok, reloading X thanks guys
[05:27] <nickrud> Nighthawk420_: marginally
[05:27] <macd> MicrosoftSpy, well unless your a purist just use the nvidia blob, and then use nvidia-settings
[05:27] <Nighthawk420_> should i try it out?
[05:27] <don_pucci> macd...how do i restart network manager?
[05:27] <nickrud> Nighthawk420_: at least on mine.
[05:28] <macd> MicrosoftSpy, but if you do want to use non blob, you can use twinview
[05:28] <MicrosoftSpy> mac: The prop driver breaks, won't display anything
[05:28] <Pelo> don_pucci, terminal   nm-applet restart I think
[05:28] <nickrud> Nighthawk420_: you've been rassling this for a long time, maybe it's worth a chance.
[05:28] <macd> don_pucci, actually it should already reflect the changes you made
[05:28] <Nighthawk420_> should i try it cuz im still having the prob with the xserver
[05:28] <Nighthawk420_> yea
[05:28] <Nighthawk420_> can i get it on the site or where?
[05:29] <macd> MicrosoftSpy, define breaks? X doesnt start of the display is garbled, the 8400GS is supported by nvidia-glx
[05:29] <jaime> nickrud, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36525/
[05:29] <Pelo> Nighthawk420_, in #ubuntu+1
[05:29] <Matir> is it possible to enable s-video out on an ATI card without the proprietary driver?
[05:29] <macd> Matir, I've heard conflicting answers there
[05:29] <Matir> macd, any idea where i'd start?  i've looked at the forums and at the wiki
[05:29] <larry1981> Anyone can tell me why my ltsp client hang up just before entering gnome with a strange picture that just become darker on the screen and nothing else working (example: ctrl-alt-2 does not work)
[05:30] <macd> Matir, the forums most likely have tons of hits, is there any erason you dont want to run the ati proprietary driver?
[05:30] <IdleOne> jaime: Automatix repos = BAD!
[05:30] <jplove71> SIgh... Still no luck on getting dualhead to work.
[05:30] <MicrosoftSpy> macd: Yes the screen is garbled. At the moment with the non prop driver it will display the same image to both monitors. However I wish to use the second monitor as an extension to the first
[05:30] <IdleOne> jaime: that is what broke whatever is broke
[05:30] <macd> MicrosoftSpy, ok, look into twinview
[05:30] <Pelo> larry1981,  if you don'T get an answer try doing a search in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[05:30] <negen> can any one tell me how to open  openoffice with out using my systems  current theme
[05:30] <nickrud> jaime: I'm going to edit that a lot, and put another copy up for you to look at. What happened was, you copied the medibuntu repos wrong
[05:30] <macd> !twinview  | MicrosoftSpy
[05:30] <ubotu> MicrosoftSpy: xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[05:31] <MicrosoftSpy> macd: Thank you :)
[05:31] <Matir> macd: mostly philosophical, but i've had bad experience with them once before (my machine would repeatedly lock up hard)
[05:31] <Nighthawk420_> hey macd how do u but that line in in the middle of that command
[05:31] <Pelo> negen, you can go in  tools > options > display Ithink and change the theme there , or the icons at least
[05:31] <macd> Matir, well if your a purist so be it ;), but I think most of the bugs are gone from the past ones
[05:31] <macd> Nighthawk420_, thats called the PIPE its below your backspace key
[05:32] <Pelo> negen,  the ppl in #openoffice.org may also know how to do what you ask if that is not it
[05:32] <Matir> macd, well, my card is too old (9200SE) to be supported by the newer drivers, so i'm stuck with old ones if i want proprietary
[05:32] <macd> Nighthawk420_, you can also pipe many commands together in a shell, such as 'ps ax | grep nautilus' lists all active processes and isolates the nautilus ones.
[05:32] <negen> there is some sort of command that i cant type when i type ooffice wirter
[05:32] <annihilus> has anyone had any luck syncing their windows mobile smartphone with ubuntu
[05:32] <negen> if i type somthing in front of that it will use  a differant theme
[05:32] <nickrud> jaime, well you didn't actually. be back in a moment
[05:33] <macd> Matir, gotcha, the oldest I've personally troubleshot was a 9500 rev2
[05:33] <darkness> can anyone tell me where i can control what services startup on ubuntu server?
[05:33] <Pelo> negen,  what is the issue you have excatly ? so we can figure how what you are trying to do ?
[05:33] <macogw> darkness: /etc/init.d/
[05:33] <annihilus> or has anyone had luck with eve file browsing the sd card through usb on a smartphone
[05:33] <negen> well i use a dark theme and i want to open openoffice with a  light theme
[05:33] <darkness> macogw: i want to control what scripts in /etc/init.d/ run at bootup
[05:33] <Matir> macd, i wish i knew if the s-video was a 3rd output or if it tried to clone the VGA or something
[05:33] <Samurai_Dan> need help with SB450
[05:33] <Samurai_Dan> Crimsun you around ?
[05:33] <simplechat> hey
[05:33] <negen> becouse other wise is usly black  typeing on black background
[05:33] <Pelo> negen, as in window borders and such ?
[05:34] <macd> Matir, but I do see some info on a quick google regarding GATOS working for older ati cards without proprietary drivers
[05:34] <simplechat> i'm thinking of building a small project for ubuntu, as a small encryption library that allows non-root users to access things similar to tc
[05:34] <Pelo> negen,  I thinkk you'll need to so that from the option menu in OOo
[05:34] <negen> right now the only thing that is working is if i type sudo first then ooffice wirter
[05:34] <Matir> macd, ok, i'll take a look -- much appreciated
[05:34] <simplechat> by extracting to /dev/shm and then softlinking that to the users homedirectory (after decryption)
[05:34] <simplechat> does this seem interesting?
[05:34] <sean_^> no
[05:34] <macd> Matir, let me know what happens, I might want to add some info to my brain ;)
[05:34] <negen> but i dont want to open in sudo all the time
[05:35] <Pelo> negen, that works because you are running OOo as root and root has the basic ubuntu theme set
[05:35] <darkness> How can i see exactly what scripts from /etc/init.d are runned at startup?
[05:35] <sean_^> runned?
[05:35] <sean_^> what does that word mean?
[05:37] <Pelo> negen,   OOo,  menu bar > tools > options : OpenOffice.org > appearence , you can set your colors there

[05:39] <sport> hey this is offtopic and i know it is but you guys are so darn helpful i thought maybe someone would help me. how many inches or pixels wide is a website (before the width scroll appears)
[05:39] <macd> don_pucci, thats network-manager, can you verify the file you changed stayed that way, and restart gnome
[05:39] <Pelo> samiam, ask a question and if someone can help they will try
[05:39] <don_pucci_> sport...it depends on the users resolution
[05:39] <dudeicles> I have a question
[05:39] <macd> sport, that depends on the clients screen resolution
[05:39] <don_pucci_> ok,,i will check and restart
[05:40] <don_pucci_> bbias
[05:40] <dudeicles> before I ask, I ask that I don't get crud for wanting to use this program. lol
[05:40] <dudeicles> I installed ies4linux and it worked on kubuntu, now i'm using gnome and it won't load up. any ideas?
[05:40] <johnficca1> do they have a gamecube emulator for ubuntu?
[05:40] <nickrud> jaime: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36526/   I commented out some duplicates, added some multiverse, and commented out the automatix and debian stuff. That one should work for you
[05:40] <sport> thanks don_pucci and macd i thought that might be the case
[05:40] <Pelo> sport,  I think I've read that the 1024x768  is the most used rresoltuions atm so it would need to be less then that ,  950 would probably do
[05:41] <ZenOswyn> i messed up one of my programs configurations terribly, so i deleted the directory and decided to uninstall/reinstall the package, but it's not replacing the config files. is there an apt-get command switch i should use for this?
[05:41] <jaime> ok so how do I fix it?  Where do I paste it?
[05:41] <Pelo> !ies4linux | dudeicles
[05:41] <ubotu> dudeicles: ies4linux is a script that quickly and effortlessly helps you install 3 versions of IE in Wine. Information can be found at http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page including instructions specifically for Ubuntu. ies4linux is aimed at web designers and ie-only sites, so please, dont use any of the IEs to navigate! Use Firefox!
[05:41] <nickrud> jaime: open a terminal, and type      cd /etc/apt/
[05:42] <Pelo> ZenOswyn, what directory did you remove ?
[05:42] <dudeicles> Pelo: There are actually some sites my wife frequents that won't let her visit unless she has IE. lol
[05:42] <dudeicles> thank you Pelo BTW
[05:42] <Samurai_Dan> Anyone help with ALSA  SB450 sound problem ?
[05:42] <File13> uh oh, tonyyarusso spells bad news
[05:42] <jaime> nickrud, so now I'm good to install w32codecs?
[05:42] <ZenOswyn> Pelo: it was my /etc/apache2/sites* directories. they files got mismwatched and i wanted a fresh start with it
[05:42] <don_pucci_> macd...i dont think the gui is the same for gnome
[05:43] <Pelo> dudeicles, I didn'T question your use of ie,   I donT realy have an opinion, I know some webmaster use it to test
[05:43] <macd> don_pucci, network-manager for gnome and kde do act/look different, but thats expected behavior
[05:43] <dudeicles> Pelo: Sorry it was ubotus opinion not your. lol
[05:43] <Flannel> ZenOswyn: don't manually delete files that are under package management.  Complelely remove the packages they belong to (that's with --purge in apt-get) and then reinstall.
[05:43] <nickrud> jaime: no, a few more steps I need to take you through. First, we'll make a backup of your sources so you have a copy of how it was before I changed it, then we'll write the new ones and then get the codecs
[05:44] <Pelo> ZenOswyn, usualy the files you need to delete are in /home/username/.apache  or some such,   try going into synaptic,  remove completely reboot and then reinstall
[05:44] <jaime> word pimp, i appreciate your help a lot
[05:44] <don_pucci_> macd...that is the question i have been asking since the beggining
[05:44] <nickrud> jaime: so first,  after you've done the cd command, type        sudo cp sources.list sources.list.before-nickrud-mucked-about  (or something you'll remember ')

[05:47] <narothepharoh> pelo are you there?
[05:47] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  yes
[05:48] <narothepharoh> it is working now thank you
[05:48] <ZenOswyn> Pelo: Ok, I did that and after a reboot I reinstalled apache, but it's still not replacing that directory
[05:48] <jaime> Ok i get a bunch of warnings and bad device stuff
[05:48] <logreeval> Hello, this isnt that big of a deal, but when i click on a few certain programs, the loading cursor doesnt show, its annoying, anyone knwo how to fix it?
[05:48] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  do you want me to tell you how to set your previous kernel as the new boot default ?
[05:48] <nickrud> jaime: that's ok, gedit will open & we can use it.
[05:48] <narothepharoh> one more question. do you know how to burn xiso.bin file to disk
[05:48] <afuchs> i need to clear the master boot record for /dev/sda, so my bios will use /dev/sda2 (which has the bootable flag set on it)
[05:48] <Pelo> ZenOswyn, mabe that dir is not needed
[05:48] <narothepharoh> pelo yes please
[05:48] <nickrud> jaime: so you can see the original sources.list in gedit?
[05:49] <jaime> yessir
[05:49] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  in the terminal   gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst   find the correct entry and move the lines to the top of the list of bootable kernels ( not hte top of the file )
[05:50] <nickrud> jaime: delete it all, then copy and paste from the text box on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36526/  . Don't use the one with the line numbers
[05:50] <afuchs> or just make windows boot from the live cd, bypassing grub
[05:50] <narothepharoh> pelo it is already at the top
[05:50] <Pelo> narothepharoh, then it shoudl be the default , nvm then
[05:51] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  for the .bin file  gnomebaker usualy can do it , but they usualy have a .cue file that accompanies them
[05:51] <jaime> ok pimpstray, then save it?
[05:51] <slavik`lap> Pelo: I know why gutsy and feisty 64bit didn't boot, because of usplash
[05:51] <nickrud> jaime: ) yes, then put it back up on the pastebin again so I can be sure you got it all ;P
[05:51] <narothepharoh> pelo i believe it is i think i choose the wrong one to staet up with just to see what it was i guess i feel kinda dumb but thanks for your help
[05:52] <Pelo> afuchs,  get the grub super cd,  check the last link in the instrucitons ubotu  will give you ,somehwere towards the botom of the page

[05:55] <afuchs> !ask
[05:55] <Pelo> AlucardX86, I think you need t use samba but I donT' knwo much about this kind of stuff
[05:55] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:55] <AlucardX86> samba?
[05:55] <KCB_> How do I tell if my syslog daemon is listening for incoming network syslog messages?
[05:55] <[1] Netham45> looking for a PHP proxy that requires a password to use.
[05:55] <AlucardX86> im not super advanced ubuntu user
[05:56] <AlucardX86> wat is samba?
[05:56] <Pelo> AlucardX86, it's for comunicating with other cmps n linux
[05:56] <ckin2001> !samba
[05:56] <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
[05:56] <IdleOne> jaime: sudo apt-get update then try to get w32codecs
[05:56] <nickrud> jaime: I have the exact line in my sources.list, and can get it. Odd. Could you put up the output from the apt-get update command , like the one you did the first time
[05:56] <Pelo> !samba | AlucardX86
[05:56] <ubotu> AlucardX86: please see above
[05:56] <AlucardX86> ohhh
[05:56] <AlucardX86> but wait
[05:57] <AlucardX86> the hard drive im trying to share is an fat32 partition
[05:57] <jaime> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36528/
[05:57] <Pelo> AlucardX86, pleas don't use the enterkey as punctuation
[05:57] <AlucardX86> and i have static ip addressing in my home network
[05:57] <AlucardX86> oh
[05:57] <Pelo> AlucardX86, linux reads fat32 natively
[05:57] <AlucardX86> yes
[05:57] <Pelo> and you can set static ips in  menu > system < network
[05:58] <AlucardX86> yes
[05:58] <AlucardX86> but im not sure how to make linux recognize the ps3 or viceversa
[05:58] <jplove71> How can I find out the BusID of my video cards?
[05:58] <fulio> if i delete the lower panel am i able to replace it agn?
[05:59] <Pelo> AlucardX86, that why you need to install and run samba , to see other comps and hdd and share the folders and such
[05:59] <E-mu> why isn't a log created in /var/log for the init phase part of the boot?
[05:59] <Kilroo> I wonder why the rechargeable batteries in my cordless mouse need recharging so much less frequently in Linux than they did in Windows.
[05:59] <AlucardX86> alright
[05:59] <fulio> if i delete the lower panel am i able to replace it agn?
[05:59] <AlucardX86> I thought the native support for linux networks was all i needed?
[05:59] <nickrud> jaime: looking at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36527/ , the one that was written to /etc/apt/sources.list, there is only one uncommented medibuntu, so it's strange that the run says it sees two.
[05:59] <Pelo> fulio,  just right click an empty space on the top pannel and select add a pannel ,  the  move it to the botom of the screen,  right lick on it and select add to pannel and you can add the applets you want
[06:00] <IdleOne> Kilroo: because now you type more in the terminal and click less on BSOD :)
[06:00] <Pelo> AlucardX86, could be, I'm not very good with this home netwrok stuff
[06:00] <AlucardX86> you know when you first try to share a folder and it asks you what kind of network it is?
[06:00] <AlucardX86> oh
[06:00] <AlucardX86> oh well
[06:00] <Mexel_> LOADS of people here. xD
[06:00] <nickrud> jaime: make sure you didn't accidently remove a # in the file, then run the update again
[06:00] <FFForever> how do i get selinux to work on ubuntu?
[06:00] <jaime> word
[06:00] <Pelo> AlucardX86,  you can also try to look up the info in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org  search before posting
[06:01] <AlucardX86> at least you gave me a pointer, so thank you pelo. and yes i will look in the forums (i just thought there would be a simple thing to do

[06:05] <wonton_> newubuntuser, did u install ntfs-3g?
[06:05] <redheat> to install the package, no matter what I type nothing happens
[06:05] <IdleOne> gerath: open the ports
[06:05] <newubuntuser> wontonyes
[06:05] <Pelo> redheat,  ubuntu does not use rpm packges it uses deb
[06:05] <redheat> nothing gets extracted or something like that
[06:05] <afuchs> ntfs3g-conf, or something like that if someone can remember exactly what it was
[06:05] <gerath> With one how do i find the port Azureus uses
[06:05] <redheat> Pelo, they have only three types of packages on the website
[06:05] <redheat> .rpm, .tar.gz, and .yum
[06:06] <redheat> they don't have any .deb
[06:06] <Pelo> redheat, you can install flach from synaptic It's in the repos , flash-nonfree-pluggin
[06:06] <wonton_> did u from console ntfs-3g /dev/sdwhatever /media/whatever?
[06:06] <jplove71> Pelo, are you familiar with lspci?
[06:06] <IdleOne> redheat: heh what Pelo said ^^^
[06:06] <Pelo> !flash | redheat

[06:07] <IdleOne> lufthanza: gksu
[06:07] <Pelo> !info lspci
[06:07] <ubotu> Package lspci does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:07] <wonton_> newubuntuser, did u from console ntfs-3g /dev/sdwhatever /media/whatever?
[06:07] <Pelo> jplove71,  sorry , I got a bit confuse,  lspci does little mroe then list the pci devices on your computer
[06:07] <nickrud> !easysource  | jaime: then I guess your best bet is to go here, and start from scratch
[06:07] <ubotu> jaime: then I guess your best bet is to go here, and start from scratch: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[06:07] <newubuntuser> wonton, i followed these instructions https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G

[06:08] <ehc> how can I turn the numlock on by default?
[06:08] <redheat> thank you all have a nice day and take care
[06:08] <Fezzler> Are there unique command-line commands to Ubuntu or are its command shared by all Linux varients
[06:08] <Pelo> ehc, in your bios I expect
[06:08] <IdleOne> !numlock
[06:08] <ubotu> To enable Number Lock by default, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NumLock
[06:08] <ttmrichter> OK, silly question time: how do I get a vncviewer (under Edgy) to pass control characters, etc. on to the server side?
[06:09] <maedhro1> Still, is it allright to use the KDE adept-installer on my Ubuntu Gnome machine?
[06:09] <wonton_> newubuntuser, did you use manual way or automatic way?
[06:09] <jplove71> Pelo, hmm...  Okay.  I'm just trying to find out what the BusID's are for my video cards so I can properly configure a dual monitor display.
[06:09] <Pelo> Fezzler,  ubuntu uses bash by default , I think that most linux distros do as well
[06:09] <newubuntuser> automatic since im a new user of linux
[06:09] <ttmrichter> Like say use ctrl-shift-T in a VNC window to open a new tab in a gnome-terminal.
[06:09] <Pelo> jplove71,  you can probably get that from   menu > system > prefs > hardware info
[06:10] <jaime> oh wow, nickrud, is this going to be tough to do?
[06:10] <wonton_> newubuntuser, did u gksu ntfs-config, from console?
[06:10] <jplove71> Pelo, Yea, I looked there fist but don't really see anything that says "BusID" specifically.  Been googling for a bit now and haven't had much luck.
[06:10] <nickrud> jaime: no, you select your sources (I'd suggest you go no lower than seveas) and paste them into /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:10] <jplove71> Pelo, fist = first
[06:11] <Gat0rvean> Can anyone guide me to sync my Palm Treo 750 on Ubuntu Feisty, via VMware if need be?
[06:11] <nickrud> jplove71: lspci in a terminal, the numbers at the beginning are the pci bus id's

[06:12] <nickrud> IdleOne: yes, missed that. Do you see anything wrong with http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36526/ ?
[06:12] <jplove71> nickrud, Since I have two identical video cards, would the first one listed via lspci be the primary card?
[06:12] <nickrud> IdleOne: I may need glasses
[06:13] <macd> vehicl1, what error do you get?
[06:13] <nickrud> jplove71: no idea, really, sorry.
[06:13] <jplove71> nickrud, kk, ty.  Guess I'll experiment and find out.  =D
[06:13] <macd> jplove71, chances are its the lower of the 2 device id's
[06:14] <jplove71> macd, That's what my guess is, also.  ty
[06:14] <IdleOne> nickrud: lemme look
[06:15] <wonton_> newubuntuser, is the usb drive mounted now?
[06:15] <newubuntuser> wonton yes i did
[06:15] <wonton_> newubuntuser, but you can-t write?
[06:15] <hydoskee> if I think I've apt-get enough stuff to mess up a my lamp install (php won't display), how can I fix it? short of a reinstallation?
[06:15] <KCB_> I'm having trouble making my sysklog daemon listen for network syslog messages.  I have the -r switch in the init.d/sysklog file, but a netstat -a command doesn't show anything listening on port 514.  Any suggestions?
[06:15] <newubuntuser> ok it works i had to do it from terminal window
[06:16] <Pelo> g'night folks
[06:16] <macd> hydoskee, you may have to add the php stuff to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

[06:20] <jpiccolo> nickrud, do you know anything about compiling ffmpeg
[06:20] <jpiccolo> ?
[06:20] <maedhro1> In the Synaptic Package Manager, when I dl and install certain items, it asks for the ubuntu CD. Why?
[06:21] <nickrud> IdleOne: gotta slog ;)
[06:21] <IdleOne> slog?
[06:21] <nickrud> jpiccolo: yes, it's something that I avoid, I hate those big messy things
[06:21] <yjwong> maedhro1, some packages are already included on the CD

[06:22] <maedhro1> yjwong: Is there a way to avoid this prompt?

[06:22] <yjwong> yep, just remove the CD ROM repositories
[06:22] <yjwong> System -> Administration -> Software Sources, then uncheck all the CD ROM entrie

[06:26] <redheat> hi guys, sorry for bugging you again..
[06:26] <E-mu> SOmeone mentioned in here a application called "bootChart" the other day when I was looking for an application that will Log the Init phase of the boot process. That BootCHart charts the process but does not give you a log of the services started and if there were any errors during that boot phase
[06:27] <redheat> how do I add the mutliverse repository..I'm trying to add flash to my firefox, and on this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash
[06:27] <E-mu> is there any other way to log the INIT or sysinit phase of the linux boot process???
[06:27] <jamin> has anyone been able/heard of the problem people are having after the last update, sound no longer works. "No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found."

[06:27] <lupin> anyone have any ideas?

[06:28] <Javid> did you get the PM from ubotu?
[06:28] <E-mu> its crazy no one thought of doing that?

Then, the rest of them are extended partitions: sda5 Vista partition, sda6 /root, sda7 swap. I installed Vista first, then thinking Ubuntu would detect it, Ubuntu. It did not detect Vista however and now I cannot get it to boot Vista. I have modified the /boot/grub/menu.lst to include what is ty
[06:32] <nickrud> rickey: you can update to dapper, that's the release that's good until 2009. a sec I'll pull up the link for you

[06:32] <aztec13> wait im checking
[06:33] <hydoskee> yjwong - I installed apache2-mpm-prefork  with the same result
[06:33] <yjwong> aztec13, um, he meant, changing the volume in game :P
[06:33] <narothepharoh> did you get that lupin?
[06:33] <lupin> yeah I have sound in game but I cant control the volume
[06:33] <lupin> yes narothepharoh
[06:33] <yjwong> hydoskee, try checking whether Apache is up (using System Monitor or similar tools)
[06:33] <lupin> ahh DrPppr242 a fellow phoenician
[06:33] <narothepharoh> thank you lupin i appreciate it
[06:33] <hydoskee> yjwong - it's not, but I knew that
[06:33] <DrPppr242> hi lupin
[06:34] <yjwong> you have to start it then
[06:34] <hydoskee> yjwong - and /etc/init.d/apache2 restart does nothing
[06:34] <hydoskee> yjwong - I've run through the level 1 stuff already
[06:34] <nickrud> rickey: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades
[06:34] <lupin> i thought this place was as dry on linux as it was on water
[06:34] <yjwong> uh, does nothing? now that's weird
[06:34] <hydoskee> yjwong - start | stop does nothing also
[06:34] <yjwong> did you install apache2-utils?
[06:34] <yjwong> i guess apache2ctl is required
[06:34] <hydoskee> yjwong- yeah
[06:35] <DrPppr242> lupin you should check out the channel $ubuntu-arizona sometime
[06:35] <hydoskee> yjwong - that's not a package available
[06:35] <lupin> on freenode?
[06:35] <DrPppr242> yep
[06:35] <CompJunki> hi lupin
[06:35] <yjwong> hydoskee, tried "apache2ctl start"?
[06:35] <DrPppr242> it's the arizona loco channel
[06:36] <lupin> awesome

[06:36] <lupin> my encounters with the natives would of never led me to believe there would be more then 2 linux users here :P
[06:36] <yjwong> ah, but you mentioned before that apache2-mpm-prefork was installed
[06:37] <hydoskee> it was
[06:37] <hydoskee> I explicitly installed it'

[06:47] <Frogzoo> binarydigit: doesn't seem like linux liked your SD reader
[06:47] <slackzer> Well, I'm going to go verify the right order, but you said 4 and I realized I had it wrong.
[06:48] <nickrud> slackzer: hope to see you with a different problem next time (or no problem would be better)
[06:48] <randy026> heh
[06:48] <aztec13> Slackzer did you catch the link i threw you ?
[06:48] <lupin> i guess you cant start games with compiz on
[06:49] <Frogzoo> lupin: nope
[06:49] <nickrud> lupin: that is usually true
[06:49] <lupin> is this an issue with compiz that is being worked on?
[06:49] <randy026> it's being worked on
[06:49] <slackzer> yes Az. Usually I don't have probs with dual booting. But, I've never actually used a seperate boot partition, so I thought that had a role in my malfunction. ok, menu.lst modified, going to test. danke folks
[06:49] <lupin> or does no one ever play games on Linux enough :P
[06:49] <lupin> cool
[06:49] <sirskeleton> excuse me but how do i mount iso images in ubuntu?
[06:49] <randy026> actually it does work now.
[06:50] <geekberg> I get nothing, i checked the control center and its set to automount, but it only detects my seagate if its on when I boot the sys
[06:50] <randy026> I "think" anyway
[06:50] <nickrud> sirskeleton:   sudo mount -o loop /dev/<device> <mntpoint>
[06:50] <fabio> salve qualcuno ha idea di come installare composite??
[06:50] <overclucker> geekberg, did you try plugging it into a different usb port?
[06:51] <sirskeleton> ty
[06:51] <lupin> is there a way to like open file browser as root?
[06:51] <teaton> can someone help me get my wireless card working in ubuntu please?

[06:52] <sub-> Every time I install a package with aptitude, it attempts to install some other package that I'm not even trying to install (it's not a dependency).
[06:52] <geekberg> just did same thing its not picked up, but other devices like flash drives, cameras are picked up when hot swapped, but not this seagate drive
[06:52] <xfiles_ken> Pici:
[06:53] <aztec13> does anybody know how to reformat a mp4player(chipod) ?
[06:53] <sub-> It's probably some package I attempted to install/do something with earlier, and obviously did something wrong.
[06:53] <nickrud> randy, sudo isn't good with gui apps, it can write config files as root owned if the user makes a change to their preferences. gksu or gksudo prevents that
[06:53] <randy026> chipod? lol
[06:54] <aztec13> yea
[06:54] <overclucker> geekberg, then i don't know what the problem is = (
[06:54] <sub-> Is there some sort of file that has a list of packages aptitude should attempt to install at a later time or something?
[06:54] <kishan> does any one know how to play mms playlist in ubuntu
[06:54] <nickrud> sub-: could you put the output of the aptitude run on a pastebin?
[06:54] <teaton> well, guess im not cool enough to be helped at the moment, google will have to suffice.   ill try back later.
[06:54] <randy026> well if it mounts it as a hard drive then you could..
[06:54] <aztec13> chinese + ipod = "chipod"
[06:54] <nickrud> teaton: missed it, but I probably won't know the answer anyway )
[06:54] <sub-> I guess. I'll have to think of something else to install :P
[06:55] <randy026> I get it but still..
[06:55] <nickrud> sub-: try sudo apt-get -f install , see if you get errors there
[06:55] <docmur> Hello all
[06:55] <geoguroo7> Howdy folks
[06:55] <docmur> I'm trying to use the glib.h header
[06:55] <geoguroo7> Just finished install of 7.10
[06:55] <randy026> howdy
[06:55] <sub-> Ooh. I do.
[06:55] <eyec0n> 7.10 is awesome isn't it
[06:55] <geoguroo7> Pretty snazzy
[06:55] <geekberg> h
[06:55] <geekberg> I'll just reboot, It seems the only way this drive is picked up
[06:55] <geoguroo7> I love the effects of like, minimize, close, ect.
[06:55] <randy026> eyec0n, yes it is
[06:56] <docmur> and I did #include</usr/include/glib-2.0/glib.h> but when I compile it I get total garabage out put
[06:56] <eyec0n> I wish there was a gui for compiz but that shouldn't be too much longer
[06:56] <Frogzoo> any idea why the vmware player downloaded from vmware, needs to be reconfgured after a reboot?
[06:56] <eyec0n> thats my only gripe with the release so far
[06:56] <randy026> eyec0n, there is but it is in gutsy
[06:56] <nickrud> docmur: you should probably ask on ##c
[06:56] <sirskeleton> would this be the correct command sudo mount -o loop /dev/cdrw dban-1.0.7_i386.iso
[06:56] <sub-> nickrud: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d57d21d93
[06:56] <docmur> okay
[06:57] <geoguroo7> I'd like automatix, but meh.
[06:57] <randy026> and you can install it via third party
[06:57] <randy026> automatix is not good
[06:57] <geoguroo7> My bad?
[06:57] <geoguroo7> I found it pretty handy on my old machine.
[06:57] <overclucker> sirskeleton, i don't think so. . .
[06:57] <nickrud> sub-: that's the bcm43xx-fwcutter trying to get a driver to get the firmware code. do you have a broadcom chip?
[06:58] <randy026> It can mess up your system..
[06:58] <elkbuntu> geoguroo7, you wouldnt like it much if it messed up your system, which it does to alot of people
[06:58] <Frogzoo> sirskeleton: nope, doesn't look right to me...
[06:58] <geoguroo7> So can Ubuntu.
[06:58] <randy026> If it worked for you then that is cool
[06:58] <overclucker> sirskeleton, are you trying to muont an iso to a folder?
[06:58] <randy026> eh
[06:58] <Frogzoo> sirskeleton: sudo mount -o loop dban-1.0.7_i386.iso /mnt/dban
[06:58] <sirskeleton> im trying to mount it to a cd
[06:58] <Hydrate> hi people
[06:58] <Frogzoo> sirskeleton: well you can't
[06:58] <sub-> nickrud: Yes.
[06:59] <randy026> operator error
[06:59] <nickrud> sub-: is it working?
[06:59] <elkbuntu> geoguroo7, unless you're messing with the development version, Ubuntu isnt going to re-map your fstab, or remove half of the software on your computer
[06:59] <sub-> nickrud: yep
[06:59] <Frogzoo> sirskeleton: sounds like you want cdemu
[06:59] <overclucker> sirskeleton, nope got to 'write' it to cd, or 'burn' it to one
[06:59] <geoguroo7> No, it'd just remove windows if you install wrong.
[06:59] <randy026> eh
[06:59] <slackzer> nickrud: Still get 'Invalid Device Requested. So, I'm betting it has something to do with a boot partition rather than writing to the MBR.
[06:59] <nickrud> sub-: you must be using ndiswrapper then. you can uninstall bcm43xx-fwcutter and lose the error
[06:59] <randy026> operator error
[07:00] <geoguroo7> Anything you'd suggest that's like Automatix?
[07:00] <sirskeleton> and how would i do that im trying to get dban on a cd
[07:00] <randy026> yeah do it yourself
[07:00] <geoguroo7> lawl
[07:00] <geoguroo7> Okay.
[07:00] <sirskeleton> sorry im clueless as of yet
[07:00] <randy026> it's not hard really..
[07:00] <overclucker> sirskeleton, right click on iso, and click write to disk
[07:00] <nickrud> slackzer: I'm not a real grub expert; I always install windows in its preferred place, xd1 to avoid issues with that beast
[07:00] <sirskeleton> ah
[07:01] <Creed> I cant seem to get to Google, can anyone help me? Ive tried TreeWalk DNS (my own server), OpenDNS, and Comcast DNS...nothing can go to google.com (all subdomains work though--mail.google.com for example).
[07:01] <overclucker> sirskeleton, or menu > places > cd/dvd creator
[07:01] <slackzer> The irony is, I setup my partitions in a live cd invironment, installed Vista, and it wrote boot params to the boot partition.
[07:02] <nickrud> sub-: if it doesn't uninstall cleanly, use    sudo dpkg -r --force-remove-reinstreq bcm43xx-fwcutter
[07:02] <jdavis_> I am trying to get s-video to work with my radeon 7500 in xorg. It already works in the CLI or mplayer (when run from the CLI). Any hints?
[07:02] <Hydrate> can ubuntu be installed as a replacemnt operating system on symbian phones? or perhaps another form of linux?
[07:03] <slackzer> So... nothing on the Vista install, so I'm going to try to reinstall and then just use the other howto's on grub dual-booting. Can't locate a single other person that's encountered what I have.
[07:03] <slackzer> Thanks for your help, I need sleep now.
[07:03] <nickrud> slackzer: ah, did the same thing, using gparted. I ended up having to go back and do it again, with cfdisk.  Try   sudo fdisk -l ; that told me my partition table was fubar'd
[07:03] <aztec13> I discovered the coolest radio set up that I catch scanners of live police/fire/railroad/marine/ham/sirrus/etc >The scanners to me is the best I keep a page tabbed at bearcat that has a drop down you pick any state to catch the local call signs so you know what theyre talking about. http://www.bearcat1.com/radio.htm#coolirisThere is a streamer in many of the players, but it's tricky to get...
[07:03] <slackzer> no errors for me
[07:03] <sub-> nickrud: thanks. For some reason I thought I *wasn't* using ndiswrapper, but I guess I am.
[07:03] <aztec13> ...the scanners to run. Amarok I had about the best luck. But if you really want to tap into this get "Tunapie" it runs off my xmms so its real light and it plays everything. I am finally listening to howard stern again !
[07:04] <nickrud> oh, well. gotta feed the beast
[07:04] <Creed> I cant seem to get to Google, can anyone help me? Ive tried TreeWalk DNS (my own server), OpenDNS, and Comcast DNS...nothing can go to google.com (all subdomains work though--mail.google.com for example).
[07:05] <Coded1> Creed try first 72.14.205.99
[07:05] <davidthedrake> Good evening/morning everyone :)
[07:06] <KP> Ello
[07:06] <stickto> hello
[07:06] <nanonyme> morning
[07:06] <Creed> Coded1, that works fine (already tried it) but I cant get the domain to load hte page.
[07:06] <stickto> here is noon, :)
[07:06] <Coded1> if you ping it does it resolve?
[07:06] <nanonyme> anyone else using gutsy than me?
[07:06] <nickrud> nanonyme: a bunch in #ubuntu+1
[07:07] <Creed> Coded1, yup, resolves to the correct address. "The connection was reset" is the error I get when trying to load it.
[07:07] <nanonyme> right. i'll join that too then
[07:07] <Coded1> creed, then your problem is not dns, what browser are u using?
[07:07] <Tech_1> Ok: Where can I get flash for 64 bit.
[07:07] <Creed> Coded1, all browsers give the same results. IE, Opera, Firefox, Marathon
[07:07] <nickrud> Tech_1: adobe hasn't released one yet
[07:07] <randy026> nanonyme, I am
[07:08] <nickrud> !flash64 | Tech_1
[07:08] <ubotu> Tech_1: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[07:08] <CompJunki> Tech_1:  you cant.
[07:08] <sirskeleton> ty overclucker it worked *hugs*
[07:08] <Tech_1> I know..that _ucks.
[07:08] <CompJunki> Tech_1:  i already tried
[07:08] <CompJunki> lol
[07:08] <Tech_1> I tried...(thanks).
[07:08] <Coded1> Creed: can any other machines in your house (if any) connect to it?
[07:08] <CompJunki> Tech_1:  use the 32bit one
[07:08] <CompJunki> that's what im on
[07:08] <CompJunki> same
[07:08] <randy026> nanonyme, also #ubuntu+1 is for gutsy
[07:08] <CompJunki> really
[07:08] <geoguroo7> Add model in Screen and Graphic Preferences?
[07:08] <Tech_1> Will it work for viewing?.
[07:08] <nickrud> Tech_1: I got it going once, but there's no real reason to fight that stuff, 64 bit is still best for servers, not desktops
[07:09] <overclucker> sirskeleton, you just need to get oriented to ubuntu, that's all
[07:09] <CompJunki> Tech_1:  yea
[07:09] <`eric-> how would i go about upgrading pidgin... i keep getting notifications on new versions...?
[07:09] <Tech_1> I agree nick..hanks.
[07:09] <Creed> Coded1, Im on a different Internet connection than the other machines but yes, other machines work fine. Using a proxy on one of the other machines also works fine. Can't be Comcast as my neighbor can get to Google (same setup, shared wifi).
[07:09] <CompJunki> lol
[07:09] <nickrud> !pidgin | `eric-
[07:09] <ubotu> `eric-: pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[07:09] <CompJunki> 64bit is for server
[07:09] <Tech_1> Thanks guys..have a super day and keep..Ubuntu(in).
[07:09] <CompJunki> i guess
[07:10] <CompJunki> you can't play games on a 64bit system either
[07:10] <Creed> What country is the .im domain for?
[07:10] <nanonyme> randy026, had a lot of dependency problems?
[07:10] <GNine> i got Gaim in my feisty
[07:10] <eyec0n> aol is so gay... way to be 7 years late
[07:10] <Coded1> Creed: i dunno
[07:10] <`eric-> nickrud: thanks but i know that... i just want to know the proper process of upgrading.. i'm sorta knew to this whole linux thing.. so should i apt-get remove first... then install the new one..? or what?
[07:10] <CompJunki> lol
[07:10] <CompJunki> aol is gay
[07:10] <CompJunki> lol
[07:10] <nickrud> or video processing, that kind of specially written compiled stuff
[07:10] <davidthedrake> Creed, I hear Google is a great search engine for things you don't know.
[07:10] <randy026> nanonyme, no
[07:11] <Coded1> davidthedrake: lol he sais he cant get google :)
[07:11] <Creed> lol IRC is an even better search engine for totally random crap that 1 out of a 1000 might actually know :)
[07:11] <nickrud> `eric-: hm, let me look at that a sec ;)
[07:11] <Creed> lol and that davidthedrake
[07:11] <davidthedrake> Heh
[07:11] <davidthedrake> *shrug* How can you not connect to Google?
[07:12] <davidthedrake> I mean seriously, in this day and age, that sounds like a personal problem. "I'm sorry doctor, I just can't seem to Google like I used to!" "Well, take three of these once a day and everything will be fine..."
[07:12] <Creed> beats the hell outta me...just doesnt wanna load. ping resolves right address, other machines on the same connection work fine...its specific to my machine as both my Ubuntu and Windows cant get to it.
[07:12] <nanonyme> randy026, i've only noticed stuff with trivial stuff like localisation of some programs and the xubuntu-kubuntu-ubuntu hybrid that i have :)
[07:12] <yjwong> Creed, what about accessing via the IP address directly?
[07:12] <Creed> yjwong, works fine but I would like to get it working via the domain :(
[07:12] <geoguroo7> k, so I clicked add model in the screen and graphics page...
[07:13] <Coded1> Creed: i think i know, check your hosts file
[07:13] <nickrud> `eric-: these look like good instructions: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-pidgin-instant-messanger-in-ubuntu.html
[07:13] <cafuego> CompJunki: All the games I pay run fine on my 64bit system
[07:13] <geoguroo7> I add a windows driver, correct?
[07:13] <yjwong> Creed, then we have a solution there.
[07:13] <Coded1> i bet theres a listing for google in there
[07:13] <Coded1> /etc/hosts
[07:13] <Creed> Coded1, if it was a hosts file issue mail.google.com shouldn't resolve either :( Checked it before trying anything (not exactly a newbie to this kinda thing)
[07:13] <CompJunki> cafuego:  you cant play quake 3 tho
[07:14] <`eric-> i should rephrase my question :)
[07:14] <yjwong> System -> Administration -> Network, under "Hosts", add the IP address as an alias to www.google.com
[07:14] <cafuego> CompJunki: I don't see why not
[07:14] <Coded1> Creed: y do you have a host listing for mail.google.com
[07:14] <gerath> any one know how i can install ubuntu on my Xbox i read some where that you can
[07:14] <`eric-> what is the proper process to upgrade applications? first remove then insatll.. or will the new install overwrite the old install?
[07:14] <CompJunki> cafuego:  i do, it tells me
[07:14] <Coded1> your host file is only for stuff not on your dns server
[07:14] <cafuego> CompJunki: So run it in a 32bit chroot.
[07:14] <CompJunki> they haven't supported 64bit
[07:15] <yjwong> `eric-, most of the time it is perfectly fine to overwrite the old install
[07:15] <davidthedrake> gerath, I would say that Google would be a better resource for that.
[07:15] <CompJunki> and how would you do that cafuego ?
[07:15] <gerath> ok thanks
[07:15] <`eric-> yjwong: ok cool.. so for pidgin i should be cool
[07:15] <Creed> Coded1, my hosts file has localhost and the hostname for a local server, nothing else. Im just saying if it was a hosts file issue then mail.google.com shouldnt resolve either as an entry for google.com would overide any subdomains for google.com
[07:15] <Coded1> Creed: what is in your hosts file?
[07:15] <nickrud> `eric-: and if it isn't, it'll tell you. That's what good about package management
[07:16] <Coded1> Creed: well you got me man
[07:16] <Coded1> i dunno
[07:16] <cafuego> CompJunki: debootstrap and dchroot
[07:16] <Creed> Coded1, im blaming Google...thou have failed me Google :(
[07:16] <nickrud> Creed: think you might be blacklisted )
[07:16] <davidthedrake> Must be Goobuntu
[07:16] <davidthedrake> ;)
[07:16] <yjwong> Creed, add the www.google.com in the hosts file :)
[07:16] <yjwong> pointing to the IP address retrieved from the ping command
[07:16] <Creed> nickrud, lol my MAC address blacklisted?! My neighbor gets on Google fine (same Internet)
[07:17] <cafuego> CompJunki: Though with ia32-libs, it may even run unmodified. A whole much of my opengl stuff does.
[07:17] <Coded1> Creed:  sorry man but out of evreyone here i think they just dont like you for some reason
[07:17] <nickrud> Creed: they must *really* hate you , what'd you do :)
[07:17] <Coded1> maybe its because your not using googletalk or their nifty calendar apps
[07:17] <Creed> >< Come on! Googling for Britney Spears blad pictures cant be grounds for blacklisting!
[07:17] <randy026> lol
[07:17] <yjwong> lol :P
[07:17] <troubled> cafuego: a convert I take it? :)
[07:17] <CompJunki> cafuego:  yea?  id probely stick with 32 till i have learn howto
[07:18] <Creed> lol I use both Gtalk and Gcal Coded1
[07:18] <krammer_> anybody good with kde
[07:18] <unagi> can anyone hepl me create a script to automatically open a crash file after a program crashes
[07:18] <troubled> Creed: no internet? you got ip?
[07:18] <eyec0n> those michael jackson pictures you tried to search for got you blacklisted
[07:18] <CompJunki> i'm a newb at linux
[07:18] <CompJunki> hehe
[07:18] <Creed> unagi, try #bash, great people for scripting needs :)
[07:18] <nickrud> CompJunki: what he means is, he runs a 32 bit inside the 64 bit ;)
[07:18] <unagi> ty
[07:18] <unagi> ty
[07:19] <CompJunki> nickrud: smart man isn't he
[07:19] <Javid> ubuntu 32 should work fine even on a 64 bit cpu, right?
[07:19] <Creed> troubled, lol I kinda need Internet to be on IRC, its just Google thats crapping out on me :(
[07:19] <eyec0n> maybe I should get little high
[07:19] <Creed> Javid, yep, works fine.
[07:19] <troubled> Creed: dsl?
[07:19] <nickrud> CompJunki: oh, yes, indeed he is skilled
[07:19] <Creed> trogdor, Comcast cable
[07:19] <Javid> I say should, because it isn't
[07:19] <Creed> oops
[07:19] <cafuego> Javid: Unless it an itanium or itanium 2 (in which case: hahahaha) - yes.
[07:19] <Creed> troubled, comcast cable
[07:19] <Javid> creed, comcast sucks the cock
[07:19] <Javid> :p
[07:19] <CompJunki> nickrud:  i know, i have feelings about him/
[07:19] <randy026> Comcast banned me for a year!!
[07:20] <randy026> bastards
[07:20] <eyec0n> comcast is better than the 56k
[07:20] <Creed> Javid, monopolzing SOB's make me use it :( I need low ping for gaming, else Id be with Qwest
[07:20] <krammer_> Randy: for what?
[07:20] <troubled> Creed: so dns irc and mostly everything works, just not your http, and only for some sites?
[07:20] <CompJunki> nickrud:  not gay feelings btw
[07:20] <cafuego> awww :-(
[07:20] <davidthedrake> Heh... everyone wants to be the next big LPB
[07:20] <Creed> troubled, only for google, EVERY other site works. All subdomains of Google work (Gtalk connects fine, I can get to my gmail, etc)
[07:20] <randy026> Well they kept saying I was using 850 gigs a month
[07:21] <CompJunki> nickrud:  no i m totally 100% male.  i can point you to the right direction if you need assistance
[07:21] <jyf1987> who can send me a r8169.o enabed on linux2.0.x
[07:21] <randy026> and I wasn't..
[07:21] <nickrud> lol
[07:21] <troubled> Creed: whats the exact error? no proxy involved? what browsers? any thing else?
[07:21] <Javid> !dvd
[07:21] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[07:21] <Creed> randy026, o.O lot of heavy users in your area then...I pull nearly 1.25TB a month average and they have only contacted me about upgrading my package to a powerboosted one (cheaper).
[07:21] <cafuego> jyf1987: Dude. Don't *EVER* load kernel modules you get from someone on irc.
[07:21] <randy026> It was the modem that was faulty cause my dsl modem the lights don't blink at all when im not using it and the cable modem did all the time
[07:21] <CompJunki> lol
[07:22] <cafuego> jyf1987: Anyway, that's gbit ethernet right? Would 2.0.x even support hardware that new?
[07:22] <jyf1987> cafuego: why?but i need this
[07:22] <Creed> troubled, all browsers fail (IE, Firefox, Marathon, Opera), no proxy (works with a proxy), The connection was reset is the error message.
[07:22] <randy026> Creed, no they pulled it from the MAC address
[07:22] <troubled> cafuego: bah, your no fun. wheres your sense of adventure? ;)
[07:22] <cafuego> jyf1987: For a kernel 2.0.x? Why?
[07:22] <Javid> Is there a method to make apt recognize my manual firefox install?
[07:22] <cafuego> Javid: `equivs'
[07:22] <jyf1987> cafuego: cause i have a mini linux using kernel 2.0.x on my usb disk
[07:23] <Javid> !info equivs
[07:23] <ubotu> equivs: Circumvent Debian package dependencies. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.0.7 (feisty), package size 18 kB, installed size 128 kB
[07:23] <Javid> huzzah
[07:23] <kahrytan> Javid, or do something to benefit thecommunity and build a deb from sourcecode
[07:23] <Coded1> i have an agp 4x ati rage 128 , dmesg | grep vga, gives me agpgart: putting agp v2 dev @ xxxxxxx in to 1x mode
[07:23] <cafuego> jyf1987: let me have a look
[07:23] <Coded1> how do i get it to goto 4x?
[07:23] <Javid> BECAUSE I KNOW HOW TO DO THAT ^_^
[07:23] <jyf1987> cafuego: how do i show it to you ?
[07:24] <troubled> Creed: what about mail.live.com?
[07:24] <Javid> Anyway, nobody'd want my install, I'm a godless FF 1.5 heathen.
[07:24] <nickrud> Javid: it won't manage  your files for you , but it will tell any package that asks that firefox is installed
[07:24] <cafuego> Hmm, v2.0 seems to not be available from kernel.org anymore
[07:24] <Javid> that's what I wanted
[07:24] <Creed> troubled, I can resolve every other domain and the pages load fine, its just the google.com domain (excluding all subdomains).
[07:25] <cafuego> jyf1987: 99% sure that hardware isn't supported under 2.0.x kernels; your better bet is to update the usb key distro.
[07:25] <southernman1> Howdy!
[07:25] <cafuego> TO something not from the early 1990's
[07:25] <z0rz> How can I burn cd images?
[07:25] <troubled> Creed: every other dns? what does: host www.google.com  say?
[07:25] <cafuego> hmm, mono might run 2.0.40
[07:26] <jyf1987> cafuego: i see then why cant i mount harddisk in that disk?my hardisk is a sata disk
[07:26] <nickrud> z0rz: right click the iso, and select burn
[07:26] <jamin> has anyone been able/heard of the problem people are having after the last update, sound no longer works. "No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found."
[07:26] <z0rz> nickrud: It's a daa file
[07:26] <cafuego> jyf1987: The 2.0.x kernel is over ten years old, SATA did not exist when I was created, so it doesn't support it.
[07:26] <nickrud> z0rz: k3b is the most accomplished cd burner, check that one out
[07:26] <Creed> troubled, tried other DNS servers, tried my own DNS servers. google.com points to what its supposed to point to (64.233.167.99)
[07:26] <z0rz> nickrud: Is that for KDE?
[07:27] <nickrud> z0rz: uses kde libs, but runs fine in gnome. Don't let on, but most gnomer's have it installed
[07:27] <davidthedrake> Creed, google.com has a few different A records actually.
[07:27] <troubled> Creed: yes every other dns query is failing? what does ifconfig report for errors and such on your inet nic?
[07:27] <jyf1987> cafuego: thank you,and is there any mininal ubuntu on usbdisk ?
[07:27] <troubled> Creed: also, your running your own bind? is it forwarding to isp, or root servers only?
[07:28] <Javid> Does anyone know if the Emerald theme repositories are having trouble? I'm trying the non-GPL one and it gives me errors.
[07:28] <cafuego> jyf1987: None that i know of, but that's not saying much.
[07:28] <z0rz> nickrud: K.. thanks
[07:28] <Coded1> Creed; try wget -dvS --no-proxy www.google.com >> outfile
[07:28] <cafuego> jyf1987: Have a google for 'damn small linux' and see if they support usb key booting
[07:28] <Creed> troubled, no errors, nothing is wrong on my end, google is being a meany :( and i run treewalk dns server on my win server and it goes to root servers, secondary is using opendns.
[07:28] <fulio> Does awn have any cool efffects, liike kiba docks?
[07:28] <cafuego> jyf1987: ... and you will want something with a 2.6.x kernel, at least.
[07:28] <Coded1> if that works then it is your machine
[07:28] <Creed> jyf1987, DSL supports USB key booting, their wiki has a how-to :)
[07:29] <jyf1987> i have dsl linux ,but i like ubuntu
[07:29] <troubled> Creed: secondary is opendns, and oddly enough, every other query fails?
[07:29] <jyf1987> actualy like the apt-get install,:>
[07:29] <Creed> jyf1987, I would recommend slax though, modules are pretty nifty.
[07:29] <fulio> Does awn have any cool efffects, liike kiba docks?
[07:29] <cafuego> jyf1987: Ubuntu can run off a livecd and store data onto a usb key
[07:29] <Javid> jyf1987, any debian distro will have apt-get
[07:29] <Coded1> it will at least tell you exactly what is happening each step, pastbin it ill take a look at it if you want
[07:29] <cafuego> jyf1987: ... if the key is big enough, you could boot the ISO off the usb key actually
[07:29] <Javid> not sure if DSL is debian
[07:29] <Creed> troubled, no queries fail, everything resolves fine and it starts to load the page, then connection reset error.
[07:29] <troubled> cafuego: so, you a full convert to ubuntu?
[07:30] <cafuego> troubled: Nope
[07:30] <davidthedrake> Hrm, I've noticed there's quite a few more people here really late at night than during the evening.
[07:30] <cafuego> troubled: I run virtualised OpenBSD
[07:30] <jyf1987> my usbdisk support usb-hdd,then i want to use it like a harddisk
[07:30] <troubled> cafuego: traitor! ;)
[07:30] <cafuego> troubled: And pretty much all Xen domUs are etch.
[07:30] <Javid> davidthedrake, linux users are nocturnal
[07:30] <cafuego> The dom0 is feisty, though
[07:30] <rabiddachshund> I can't change my screen resolution to anything larger than 1024x768. :/
[07:30] <cafuego> Linux monolith 2.0.40 #79 Fri Mar 5 01:23:52 CET 2004 i586
[07:31] <davidthedrake> Javid, gotcha. I have always been nocturnal. But have only within the last couple years loved the Linux.
[07:31] <cafuego> troubled: ... and a slackware 3.0 (libc5) machine :-)
[07:31] <troubled> Creed: so you have watched the wire and google's ip is sending the RST?
[07:32] <Creed> troubled, no RST packets...just *BAM*...dead without warning.
[07:32] <Coded1> Creed; did you try that wget ?
[07:32] <troubled> Creed: tcp isn't self terminating ;)
[07:32] <cafuego> Creed: Are you trying to google "liquid explosives sydney" ?
[07:32] <Coded1> lol
[07:32] <Creed> troubled, my PC is possessed then :'(
[07:33] <Coded1> maybe its that new drm stuff
[07:33] <davidthedrake> Douse it in stale beer, cover it in used tissues and run for your life.
[07:33] <Coded1> ;)
[07:33] <Creed> Works fine on my DSL line though (dual-NICs)
[07:33] <geoguroo7> Is there a way to fall back roll-back with Ubuntu?
[07:33] <Creed> And its my PC and Comcast as Ive tried my neighbors and all the college students living there and they can use Google fine.
[07:34] <geoguroo7> fall back/roll back*
[07:34] <Coded1> maybe google's data is cached somewhere wrong?  have you tried flushing your dns?
[07:34] <ikunat> hi all... I have an interesting problem when I preview screen savers.. my computer seems to sing.
[07:34] <aztec13> How could I make money tattooing something to do with ubuntu or firefox on myself ?
[07:34] <Creed> Coded1, yep, flushed my DNS, emptied all my cache...Even so a few hundred F5's should clear things up :(
[07:34] <Coded1> ikunat: sing ?  thats neat
[07:34] <Creed> ikunat, sing?!
[07:34] <ikunat> i mean.. not from the speakers either. very strange.. anyone heard of that before?
[07:35] <Coded1> is it telling you to eat your pet, mine did that once
[07:35] <Creed> ikunat, my CPU (yes the actualy CPU) makes noises during boot and when its sitting idle...
[07:35] <Coded1> ....
[07:35] <ikunat> i enabled the three dee drivers for my ati card and wow.. i am worried a chip is going to bust
[07:35] <Coded1> lol
[07:35] <nickrud> geoguroo7: not really ...
[07:35] <troubled> Creed: curious: ping 72.14.207.99
[07:35] <geoguroo7> I take what I said back earlier, 7.1 Sucks
[07:35] <Creed> troubled, ping works perfectly fine, tried it before with Coded1 and a few others.
[07:35] <ikunat> nope.. not like that.. did not do that before I enabled three dee drivers
[07:36] <nickrud> geoguroo7: ah, give it a couple days, it'll heal itself
[07:36] <troubled> Creed: but did you try _that_ ip?
[07:36] <rabiddachshund> is there a config file somewhere that I have to modify to allow resolution larger than 1024x768?
[07:36] <troubled> Creed: if you know about rfc1918 you know where im going with this
[07:36] <geoguroo7> I sure do hope so
[07:36] <geoguroo7> I'm tired of Force Quiting every few seconds
[07:36] <overclucker> ikunat, GPU?
[07:36] <Creed> troubled, yup, normal reply.
[07:36] <troubled> ok
[07:36] <nickrud> geoguroo7: been here been bit , got healthy before
[07:37] <ikunat> gpu??? sorry I am a nube
[07:37] <davidthedrake> rabiddachshund, you might be thinking of /etc/X11/xorg.conf however, that's a file that should only be altered with extreme caution.
[07:37] <ikunat> ah.. never mind
[07:37] <nickrud> !fixres | rabiddachshund
[07:37] <ubotu> rabiddachshund: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:37] <davidthedrake> That too. 'cause ubotu is basically God.
[07:37] <kkathman> he's just a bot :)
[07:37] <kkathman> lol
[07:38] <rabiddachshund> thanks!
[07:38] <troubled> Creed: http://72.14.207.99/ ??
[07:38] <Creed> troubled, Im pretty sure its not a private address issue heh
[07:38] <overclucker> ikunat, graphic card?
[07:38] <ikunat> I am not sure if it is gpu or not.. but it sounds like heavy interference on a CB radio or something
[07:38] <troubled> Creed: was worth a shot, never know :)
[07:38] <Creed> troubled, goes to Google like its supposed to (IP's work fine, its just the domain that fails).
[07:38] <ikunat> ok... ati mobility radeon 1600
[07:38] <overclucker> ikunat, kind of wistleing?
[07:39] <ikunat> yep.. kind of whistling
[07:39] <troubled> Creed: well, my blame would be your opendns. it makes up 50% of your dns servers, which matches your dns query problems
[07:39] <ikunat> very disconcerting
[07:39] <overclucker> yup
[07:39] <Creed> troubled, tried it without opendns, tried it with just my own, just comcast, just opendns, just 4.1.1.1 (forgot whos that one is)...nada
[07:40] <overclucker> could be your graphics card just does that on a high load
[07:40] <troubled> Creed: but did you clear your caches each time?
[07:40] <Creed> ikunat, might be your LCD making the noise, my macbook did the same when I ran games
[07:40] <davidthedrake> ..
[07:40] <ikunat> at first I thought I was having audio halucinations.. I am on oxycodone for pain.
[07:40] <troubled> Creed: if opendns fubar a google dns for some reason and you cache it, changing dns wont matter in the OS cache
[07:40] <ikunat> so kind of freaked me out
[07:40] <Creed> troubled, heh Im not a newbie PC user >< Yeah I cleared it every single time, even rebooted for the heck of it.
[07:40] <overclucker> or that it's clock frequency is wrong
[07:41] <aztec13> Is anyone familiar with a good way to secure a ubuntu run computer with low memory? I was thinking what about just encrypting everything would it work how do i do it ?
[07:41] <troubled> Creed: so all dns works 100% via command, just not when you use http+dns?
[07:41] <overclucker> lol
[07:41] <Creed> troubled, even if opendns screwed it up, why can my neighbors get ot it? We're on the same line (shared wifi) and the DNS servers set in the router is my treewalk dns first, then opendns
[07:41] <ikunat> Creed: do you know if it is going to hurt my screen? it does seem to be coming from there
[07:42] <Creed> troubled, correct, and only for google, other domains resolve fine.
[07:42] <Creed> ikunat, wont hurt it, just annoying as heck when doing stuff without sound.
[07:42] <troubled> Creed: the only thing i could think off that could be off if not dns would be something like ECN or clamped mtu's, but your answers seem to eleiminate both those
[07:42] <overclucker> ikunat, don't overload it too much at first
[07:43] <Creed> ikunat, i have somewhat the same issue with my surround setup, if theres nothing playing or headphones are plugged in but the volume is turned up, the speakers pick up AM stations..crappy ones too :(
[07:43] <troubled> Creed: you got a wire capture of one of the problem connections for us to go over?
[07:43] <Creed> troubled, lol Google just hates me :(
[07:43] <ikunat> Creed: thanks.. one more question if you do not mind... since I enabled my three dee graphics acceleration for the card I am no longer able to see those screensavers in full screen.
[07:44] <Creed> troubled, Im on Windows at the moment, how would I do that on here?
[07:44] <troubled> Creed: wireshark is for windows too
[07:44] <Creed> ikunat, Im a pretty big ATI hater so your best bet would be to ask anyone else in here :)
[07:44] <ikunat> Creed: oh no.. .not the sound.. all my volume is off.. my GF is sleeping beside me
[07:44] <kshah> how can i force crontab to execute immediately and then check the log?
[07:44] <troubled> Creed: how did you detect the non existent RST packet last time?
[07:45] <Creed> troubled, totally forgot about wireshark ><
[07:45] <ikunat> Creed: I am as well.. unfortunately I liked the look of this comp so I thought... "perhaps they got it together in the last few years"... nope.
[07:45] <Creed> troubled, was on Ubuntu then (using a bouncer so I dont get kicked off IRC)
[07:45] <troubled> ...
[07:46] <davidthedrake> What can I install for Firefox that will work for Quicktime media online?
[07:46] <ikunat> overclucker.. how about you.. any ideas on the three dee probs I am having?
[07:46] <overclucker> yeah
[07:46] <Creed> ikunat, heh if you can still return it or exchange it, Id go for a nvidia based lappy
[07:46] <ikunat> i wish.. but it was in the car accident with me
[07:46] <troubled> :~
[07:47] <Jordan_U> davidthedrake, Totem ( the default player ) works great with the right codecs
[07:47] <noiesmo> !mozilla-mplayer | davidthedrake
[07:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mozilla-mplayer - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:47] <overclucker> ikunat, you may have an incompatible driver
[07:47] <ikunat> and I grabbed it while i was working up in fort mcmurry in the oil sands
[07:48] <davidthedrake> Hrm. k
[07:48] <noiesmo> davidthedrake: theres package called mozilla-mplayer
[07:48] <troubled> Creed: anyways, let me know if you can get a capture of the session
[07:48] <Jordan_U> davidthedrake, First try right clicking the file and choosing "Open In Movie Player" that will let Totem do it's Codec finding foo, and if it finds the codecs you need they will work from "Movie Player" and Firefox as they are basically the same App ( the plugin that is )
[07:48] <overclucker> ikunat, what card are you using anyways?
[07:49] <Jordan_U> davidthedrake, If that doesn't work try installing w32codecs ( which is a bit harder and more proprietary )
[07:49] <ikunat> I agree.. I just do not know where else I can get one.. I may have to try the one from ATI but it requires a version of xfree86] 
[07:50] <Jordan_U> ikunat, fglrx?
[07:50] <Creed> troubled, gmm TCP checksum overload...
[07:50] <ikunat> Jordan_t.. what is that?
[07:50] <troubled> Creed: lrn2fltr
[07:50] <banyunet__> purwokerto
[07:51] <Jordan_U> ikunat, The proprietary GFX driver from ATI, I assume that is what you are talking about?
[07:51] <ikunat> i was thinking about using that one yes
[07:51] <Jordan_U> ikunat, That does not require xfree86.
[07:51] <ikunat> I tried everything i saw in universe first
[07:51] <Jordan_U> ikunat, Just enable it in System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[07:51] <ikunat> have done that already
[07:52] <Jordan_U> ikunat, What are you trying to accomplish now?
[07:52] <ikunat> that is when it started making the sound and not displaying three dee screensavers in full screen
[07:52] <aztracker1> anyone know of a list somewhere that lists supported raid cards for ubuntu.. I just need a simple raid1 pci sata2 card...
[07:52] <Jordan_U> ikunat, Ahh, sorry I missed that coming in late
[07:52] <ikunat> All I need to do now is get the three dee acceleration working
[07:52] <aztracker1> could go pcie 4x
[07:53] <ikunat> np.. I appreciate any efforts made
[07:53] <Jordan_U> aztracker1, Why not do real Soft RAID instead of Fake hardware RAID that is really Soft RAID anyways?
[07:53] <Frogzoo> aztracker1: why not use software raid?
[07:53] <ikunat> I will try download the ones I just saw on the ati site... see if it works for me or blows up my system
[07:53] <patros> aztracker1 - you could use a software raid, if you have the hd's on a seperate connector you shouldn't have any real performance hit
[07:54] <aztracker1> Jordan_U, well, I would like to install to a raid1 drive..
[07:54] <overclucker> ikunat, try to get the driver from ati web site
[07:54] <Creed> troubled, TCP Checksum Overload is the only thing out of the ordinary when I try to go to Google. Compared with using my DSL line and thats the only difference.
[07:54] <aztracker1> no install options for raid1
[07:54] <ikunat> yep.. I am off to do just that
[07:54] <ikunat> thanks all
[07:54] <Frogzoo> !raid | aztracker1
[07:54] <ubotu> aztracker1: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[07:54] <Jordan_U> ikunat, Ok, just know that they will need to be re-installed with any updates to the kernel.
[07:55] <ikunat> thanks...
[07:55] <Jordan_U> aztracker1, Are you using the alternate CD?
[07:55] <Creed> Just read today that ATI was going to start to release their own open source drivers...something to look forward to ikunat
[07:55] <ikunat> no bleep!! its about bleeping time!!! bleep!
[07:55] <troubled> Creed: what is saying "overload"?
[07:55] <aztracker1> Jordan_U, nope, was using regular cd..
[07:56] <brownie17> hi guys, i'm trying to configure the source for gtkpod, but it says i need libgpod-1.0, so i downloaded that and installed it, then i ran configure again on gtkpod and it tells me that i need version 0.5.2 of libgpod, the internet tells me the most current version is 0.4.2 what do i do?
[07:56] <Jordan_U> aztracker1, The regular CD does not support RAID, or really any type of advanced configuration
[07:56] <Lucios> how to uninstall file from tar.gzip?
[07:56] <Lucios> install using make install
[07:56] <aztracker1> Jordan_U, the alt cd does?
[07:56] <Jordan_U> Lucios, What are you trying to install, chances are there is an easier ( and better supported ) way
[07:56] <Lucios> to uninstall using what?
[07:56] <Creed> troubled, Checksum: 0x0c7e [incorrect, should be 0x3126 (maybe caused by "TCP checksum offload"?)
[07:56] <Jordan_U> aztracker1, Yes
[07:57] <aztracker1> Jordan_U, okay.. downloading now.. :) thx
[07:57] <Lucios> Jordan_U: i install samba
[07:57] <Jordan_U> aztracker1, np
[07:57] <Lucios> using tarball
[07:57] <Jordan_U> !Samba | Lucios
[07:57] <ubotu> Lucios: 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
[07:57] <Lucios> i want to remove it
[07:57] <southernman1> can anyone point me to a server channel?
[07:57] <overclucker> Lucios, from source dir make uninstall
[07:57] <Jordan_U> Lucios, Sorry, I misread that as you trying to install rather than uninstall
[07:58] <southernman1> for general server info and advice...
[07:58] <Frogzoo> southernman1: this is a server chan
[07:58] <brownie17> hi guys, i'm trying to configure the source for gtkpod, but it says i need libgpod-1.0, so i downloaded that and installed it, then i ran configure again on gtkpod and it tells me that i need version 0.5.2 of libgpod, the internet tells me the most current version is 0.4.2 what do i do?
[07:58] <troubled> Creed: and just for google? hmm, doesnt seem like a good thing your packets are being altered apparently
[07:59] <Jordan_U> southernman1, #networking, ##bash, ##linux, here, depends on what you are asking about specifically
[07:59] <aztracker1> it would be nice if the fakeraid vendors (promise, highpoint etc) would simply release FOSS drivers..
[07:59] <southernman1> Frogzoo and Jordan_U: Thanks...
[08:00] <Jordan_U> southernman1, np
[08:01] <southernman1> Generally, am curious about hardware requirements to run a copy of wordpress and serve a different site with basic static html....
[08:01] <southernman1> and... concern about what a 1.5 dsl line will handle comfortably
[08:02] <southernman1> *ducks for the laughter and spewing of spit from said laughter*
[08:02] <troubled> southernman1: i could see any computer that still runs with decent amount of ram being able to handle a measly dsl line :)
[08:03] <troubled> southernman1: unless the hd/ram cant handle 1.5mbits, then you gotta upgrade just a tad ;)
[08:03] <southernman1> troubled: when you say decent amount of ram. Are you refering to more than 256mb?
[08:04] <troubled> southernman1: well, even 128mb works fine for my db here. but it really depends on how much data your talking about serving initially
[08:05] <troubled> southernman1: static html is no biggie, but anytime you involve a web server and db, you run into efficiency problems with queries, which ram usually helps address
[08:05] <kshah> what is wrong with sudo mount localhost:/mydir /mydir
[08:05] <troubled> thats a very general case though. really depends on lots of var's though
[08:07] <southernman1> troubled: Thank you very much... The dynamic stuff concerned me more than anything. My old PII 350 just doesn't have the ram capabilities it's going to require for the serving of such...
[08:07] <rathel> Anyone else using rtorrent?
[08:08] <southernman1> sure for a while it would be ok, but in relatively short order it would be a problem...
[08:08] <dystopianray> rathel: i used to use it
[08:08] <southernman1> troubled: Thanks again! :)
[08:08] <rathel> dystopianray, Do you know if you can limit the number of active torrents?
[08:08] <troubled> southernman1: np
[08:09] <dystopianray> rathel: it's likely a setting in the config file
[08:09] <rathel> dystopianray, I've been looking but I cannot find it.. lol
[08:10] <troubled> southernman1: consider this box. 750mhz, 128mb, 250gig, still <100ms sql select time on a ~100mb db with index's. And I expectthe same speeds even with multiple gig db
[08:10] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[08:11] <Kitsun> Is it possible to load text into the clipboard using a terminal command?
[08:11] <raddy> fsck script is frequently closing unexpectedly
[08:11] <raddy> Is it dangerous?
[08:12] <southernman1> troubled: that's better than what little info I've found on calcuating these things have led me to believe.
[08:12] <FreeDance> hi all
[08:13] <FreeDance> hey can anyone tell me how to see so i can edit the code for games such as tux racer and what not
[08:13] <southernman1> troubled: Can you point me to a site / docs to help determine this sort of thing?
[08:13] <dystopianray> FreeDance: you want the source code to tux racer?
[08:14] <FreeDance> well kinda like is there a way i can look at it and edit it and other games?
[08:14] <troubled> southernman1: can't think of anything off hand. though your kinda getting into theoretical performance. it all really depends on the index's used by the software for its data storage
[08:14] <dystopianray> FreeDance: anything that is open source, yes
[08:14] <dstadulis> quick question: when I run sudo gparted I cannot change my partition at all, format move resize, does not work and there is a lock icon next to both of my 2 partitions any sugjestions?>
[08:14] <FreeDance> awesome ..how?
[08:15] <kkathman> greetings -  in compiz-fusionI have somehow lost that feature that when you move the cursor to the upper right, all the windows come up - anyone know what controls that?
[08:15] <patros> dstadulis - the partition is probably mounted? try the gparted live cd
[08:15] <kishan> kkathman, i think the expo plug in not sure again
[08:16] <troubled> southernman1: basically, 1.5mbit isnt a whole lot. the system would have little problem serving up the static content (unless your hammering your hd with some file copies etc). But the db stuff is all dependant on the design of what your using. but i would suspect <1sec minimum on all selects if cpu load isnt spiked from admin activity
[08:16] <kkathman> kishan:  ok I'll try that
[08:16] <dystopianray> FreeDance: sudo apt-get source <packagename> i suppose
 its in genral settings
[08:16] <xjkx> ubuntu has too much options to load, how do i load it on lilo?
[08:16] <dstadulis> patros: how would one prevent the secondary partition from being mounted when booting?
[08:16] <raddy> Anybody there?
[08:16] <troubled> southernman1: at least, for 1.5mbit, i cant see you being able to saturate the db access before you do your dsl
[08:16] <FreeDance> kkathman and keyboard shortcuts
[08:17] <patros> if the partition is a secondary one that isn't being used for /home or anything like that you can just unmount it
[08:17] <zunanarief> is the VGA card SIS 6323 support by ubuntu 7.04
[08:17] <dstadulis> k I'll try that
[08:17] <dystopianray> zunanarief: it should work
[08:17] <troubled> southernman1: may I ask exactly how many hits per second you are hoping for?
[08:17] <kkathman> FreeDance:  yeah that Expo was check already and I thought I had it once :)
[08:17] <FreeDance> sick thanks man
[08:18] <ikunat> Jordan_u, Creed, and Overclucker... Thanks all for you suggestions. I have figured it out and all is (moderately) well. Have a great night.
[08:18] <dstadulis> patros: thanks btw
[08:18] <southernman1> troubled: honestly, I've not even considered it. :(
[08:18] <kishan> kkathman check show desktop
[08:18] <patros> dstadulis: np - did that work for you
[08:19] <southernman1> troubled: maybe that's a sign in and of itself!
[08:19] <kkathman> FreeDance:  ahh the Expo plug does give me the view of the panes,  bit I was looking for that view that you see all the windows you have open shrunk to one screen
[08:19] <dstadulis> patros: I tried to unmount in gparted and it gave me an error and said I should unmount it manually, I try doing it using umount?
[08:19] <patros> dstadulis - what's the mount point?
[08:20] <kishan> kkathman, did u try show desktop
[08:20] <southernman1> troubled: for a new site with 0 google listings and relying on software linking / backlinking, traffic may be a while coming
[08:20] <troubled> well, for me to query 1 user out of my tables 137000 id's, it took me 47ms on first query, 0ms on subsequent. so assuming  50ms on each query, your probably looking at about 20-30 requests per second+. I wouldnt expect to survive a slashdotting though
[08:21] <kkathman> kishan:  yes - afraid that didnt work either :(
[08:21] <dstadulis> patros:  "umount: /media/sda3 mount disagrees with the fstab
[08:21] <dstadulis> "
[08:21] <southernman1> troubled: understood
[08:21] <kishan> oops kkathman,i have it working i donnot what works for what did  u enable the cube
[08:21] <patros> dstadulis: so "sudo umount /media/sda3" doesn't work?
[08:22] <kkathman> kishan:  yes the cube is enabled and rotate cube is too
[08:22] <dstadulis> patros: sudo did the trick
[08:22] <kkathman> kishan:  what about your zooms ??
[08:22] <kishan> kkathman, try trail focus
[08:22] <southernman1> One hot slashdotting could take the server out in no time! gotcha
[08:22] <patros> dstadulis: cool
[08:22] <troubled> southernman1: figure your wordpress prolly does about 10 queries per page, so make that 2-3 pages per second given the old cpu and a fairly large (10000+ element tables in all your db)
[08:23] <dstadulis> patros: thank you very much saved what could have been a big pain
[08:23] <kkathman> kishan nope :(
[08:23] <troubled> southernman1: and consider that most time spent on a site is idle time. figure out your expected avg time to page and you can prolly factor that into that 2-3pg/s estimate
[08:24] <H0lyD4wg> i have two soundcards and ubuntu randomly selects which one to use on boot. how do i make it consistently select the same one every time?
[08:24] <patros> dstadulis: np - glad i could help
[08:24] <kishan> try #ubuntu-effects
[08:24] <patros> holyd4wg: take one out :)
[08:25] <kishan> kkathman, #ubuntu-effects ask your question there
[08:25] <kkathman> yeah I did - no answer at present :(
[08:26] <raddy> fsck script is frequently closing unexpectedly
[08:26] <raddy> Is it dangerous?
[08:26] <quaal> anyone know why my right and left mouse buttons will correctly go forward/back pages in firefox but in nautilus and epiphany it controls the horizontal scrolling ?
[08:27] <southernman1> troubled: so with a old cpu and little ram, the box itself would be more a bottleneck than the dsl line?
[08:28] <unagi> anyone here by chance use maya?
[08:29] <troubled> southernman1: i would say more the other way around. sql kinda complicates it though.
[08:31] <southernman1> troubled: ok... I have the answers I was looking for. for now at least.
[08:31] <southernman1> troubled: great help you were!
[08:31] <southernman1> *no sarcassm
[08:31] <troubled> np, go run a benchmark though
[08:32] <southernman1> will do
[08:33] <southernman1> bbl

[08:38] <shiznix> am looking for a no nonsense, up to date guide for creating a simple .deb package (note that 'checkinstall' cannot be used due to it's overwriting system files bug)
[08:38] <xjkx> is this root=UUID= really needed in grub?
[08:38] <shiznix> i was pointed to http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/basic-debhelper.html , which i followed to the letter, and all commands work fine, but i'm left at the end with still no .deb package
[08:39] <shiznix> documentation incomplete ?
[08:39] <shiznix> or does someone know of an alternative guide ?
[08:39] <Yasumoto> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=51003

[08:43] <tongueroo> there a command to quickly find out which version of linux my virtual hosting is running?
[08:43] <koolrans> hi
[08:43] <_nix_> cat /proc/version
[08:44] <koolrans> I had a question regarding kdevelop on ubuntu 7.04
[08:44] <doktoreas> wich ubuntu version should i installa on a intel dual core?
[08:44] <koolrans> I am developing an application using kdevelop. Is there a way I can debug it as root
[08:44] <ari_stress> doktoreas: feisty 7.04 64bit would be great

[08:45] <shiznix> Yasumoto: YES, thank you - 'dpkg-buildpackage' was what i needed
[08:45] <ironmatar> uner 30! most of the time
[08:45] <doktoreas> ari_stress: it's the dual core 64bit?
[08:46] <bascule> ari_stress: is there good reason to use 64bit on core2 duos?
[08:46] <_nix_> doktoreas: I think there is 64 bit support on core2 duos
[08:46] <bascule> just cause I have one and I thought about it
[08:46] <shiznix> hm..the ubuntu official packaging docs state to use 'debuild -S' which is a wrapper for 'dpkg-buildpackage', but for some reason it does everything except build the .deb :/
[08:47] <ari_stress> doktoreas: bascule: i'm thinking of replacing my 32bit to 64bit on my core duo too
[08:47] <shiznix> 'debuild -S' i mean ...
[08:47] <doktoreas> thank you very much
[08:49] <tongueroo> thanks _nix_
[08:49] <tongueroo> another simple question, how can i find out if ImageMagick is installed?
[08:49] <ironmatar> http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com   why does this place always run so darned slow!!!!!  im good for 190k plus and this one regularly posts under 30!
[08:50] <ironmatar> sometimes Less than 10k
[08:50] <tongueroo> i did "which identify" which will tells me that it is available
[08:51] <RAOF> shiznix: The '-S' means "build a source package only", so it's not going to build .debs :)
[08:51] <tongueroo> identify is an ImageMagick function
[08:51] <tongueroo> but i would like to know the version that is installed...
[08:51] <shiznix> RAOF: AHA! :D
[08:52] <D4wgzilla> i have two soundcards and ubuntu randomly selects which one to use on boot. how do i make it consistently select the same one every time?
[08:52] <ironmatar> ????? isent the data avliabe for dload faster than under 30 kb a second?

[08:54] <GuHhH> hey
[08:55] <GuHhH> please, i need some help... i can't boot my ubuntu distro. what can i do to solve the problem?
[08:55] <kahrytan> z0rz, You must want to use keyboard exclusively almost
[08:56] <_nix_> GuHhH: what happens when you try to boot?
[08:57] <z0rz> kehWhat?
[08:57] <GuHhH> it just stop loading when loading dvd-rom drivers
[08:57] <z0rz> kahrytan: What?
[08:57] <GuHhH> _nix_: it just stop loading when loading dvd-rom drivers... its so strange because i used it before with  no problem
[08:58] <koolrans> I need some help with sudoers
[08:58] <koolrans> I want my username to not ask for password
[08:59] <z0rz> koolrans: EDITOR=gedit sudo visudo
[08:59] <koolrans> I tried jack ALL - NOPASSWD:ALL but it does not help
[08:59] <z0rz> koolrans: Find this line: system_usernameALL=(ALL) ALL
[08:59] <koolrans> it still ask for passwd
[08:59] <_nix_> GuHhH: as soon as you power on the system, press escape to enter the grub menu, press 'e' on the highlighted entry and press 'e' again on the "kernel" line. remove the words quiet and splash, press enter, press 'b'. this should give you move info
[08:59] <z0rz> koolrans: Replace it with: system_usernameALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
[08:59] <z0rz> koolrans: And then reboot
[08:59] <twigs> Hi, new user, having trouble with installation on an averatec laptop; freezes when loading cdrom drivers to start installation
[09:00] <z0rz> koolrans: No space between jack ALL
[09:00] <GuHhH> _nix_: i removed the splash... but not the quiet...
[09:00] <_nix_> GuHhH: btw, there's also a possibality that a disk inside the drive might be causing the problem
[09:00] <GuHhH> _nix_: it was empty
[09:01] <koolrans> so it should be "jack ALL=NOPASSWD:ALL"
[09:01] <koolrans> z0rz: can I apply the changed without reboot
[09:01] <koolrans> i am remotely connected
[09:01] <koolrans> and if i reboot
[09:01] <koolrans> i cannot vnc
[09:02] <z0rz> koolrans: I think so

[09:06] <twigs> any help?
[09:06] <kahrytan> balazspek, Does your bios support it?
[09:07] <cwo_ndirian> hi
[09:07] <balazspek> kahrytan, yes of course...
[09:08] <kahrytan> balazspek, You read DSL's documentation?
[09:09] <kogler> Hi all. I'm running ubuntu with KDE (though not kubuntu as such) and whenever I flick to a tty console, the text is enormous and I can't read everything.
[09:10] <gvsa123> hello
[09:10] <kahrytan> you installed kde through ubuntu
[09:10] <balazspek> irc://irc.freenode.net/kahrytan,isnick, yes but the base was same like the others.
[09:11] <gvsa123> i can test whether ubuntu will work well on my presario 2720 notebook using the live cd right? like check whether all hardware are working, easy access buttons and stuff?
[09:11] <kahrytan> balazspek, http://wiki.debian.org/BootUsb?
[09:11] <kogler> kahrytan yes... ?
[09:11] <JonJ> gvsa123: Yeah, you can
[09:11] <balazspek> i made a part with bootable flag, syslinux /dev/sdb1, and made a config file and put the files from the iso.
[09:11] <kogler> I've done it before without issue...
[09:12] <kahrytan> kogler, Why did you install it?
[09:12] <riaal> okey, my teacher tells me there is no way I have 100mbit internet.. when im downloading a torrent it never drops under 10mb/s whats the most accurate way (and coolest =)) to messure internet speed in ubuntu?
[09:12] <gvsa123> JonJ: so any potential problems would be immediately obviously by using the live cd? no difference between installing?
[09:12] <kogler> because I wanted to. that's not really important.
[09:12] <Ed_L> riaal: speedtest.net ?
[09:13] <kahrytan> http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/
[09:13] <riaal> Ed_L, Fore some reason he laugts at it... This is a collage teacher with cisco IE diploma ;)
[09:13] <kahrytan> balazspek, How is that guide?
[09:13] <bullgard4> Update Manager informs that there is a newer version available of the DEB program package dpkg-dev than is installed on my Ubuntu 7.04. But Update Manager does not allow me to select this check box. Why? (Such never happened to me before.)
[09:13] <balazspek> kahrytan, same... fdisk, format, syslinux, copy
[09:13] <kahrytan> then follow it
[09:13] <JonJ> gvsa123: Probably, yeah
[09:13] <balazspek> kahrytan, i saw that...
[09:14] <gvsa123> JonJ: waaaahhh... is this my windows login name and password the live cd is asking for?
[09:14] <JonJ> If it works on the liveCD it will work when you install it
[09:14] <riaal> but I figure, If I can messure the time from when I start downloading it to when I unrar it.. there can be no argument
[09:14] <kahrytan> balazspek, Debian wiki tells you how to partition cuz you need mbr
[09:14] <JonJ> gvsa123: It's been some time since I've used the LiveCD, in what context is it asking for pass/user?
[09:15] <gvsa123> JonJ: the login for Ubuntu
[09:15] <balazspek> kahrytan, I have 20 pages about that theme...
[09:15] <kahrytan> balazspek,  and if it doesnt work. then you can't boot from it
[09:15] <JonJ> gvsa123: It's not the windows-pass.
[09:15] <balazspek> kahrytan, of course i red debian wiki pages...
[09:16] <gvsa123> JonJ: i realized that... tried every combnation already. what then?
[09:16] <JonJ> Tried using the user "ubuntu"?
[09:16] <balazspek> kahrytan, MBR okay, vmlinuz ok, but after....
[09:16] <kahrytan> I have never done it nor would i. I like keeping my flash drives.
[09:17] <CarlDOT> Wow I have actually managed to install something
[09:18] <balazspek> kahrytan, did you make a boot usb install?
[09:18] <kahrytan> balazspek, No
[09:19] <balazspek> kahrytan, on the pages looks like very simple but I can't understand what happened after loading...
[09:19] <kahrytan> writedown errors
[09:20] <balazspek> kahrytan, may be
[09:20] <kahrytan> balazspek, You do know that it will reduce the flash drive's lifespan?
[09:20] <balazspek> kahrytan, or... some file(s) are missing...
[09:20] <gvsa123> that's weird. i can't get into the live cd... it's asking me for a username and pass
[09:20] <balazspek> kahrytan, really? why?
[09:21] <kahrytan> balazspek, It has finite amount of writes
[09:21] <magic_ninja> is anyone getting this msg
[09:21] <scguy318> magic_ninja: yep
[09:22] <scguy318> balazspek: probably like 10k write cycles
[09:22] <balazspek> kahrytan, hmmm... how many times can I write? 10000?
[09:22] <riaal> I need an onscreen clock that shows seconds, preferly a big one
[09:22] <magic_ninja> getting really slow inet usage
[09:22] <magic_ninja> can't connect to bnet or google
[09:22] <nox-Hand> When I "ls" a folder, and it's contents is coloured GREEN - what does that mean?
[09:22] <Frogzoo> !enter | magic_ninja
[09:22] <ubotu> magic_ninja: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:22] <scguy318> riaal: xclock? :P
[09:22] <JonJ> gvsa123: After a quick google search(And my own recollection) it appears that asking for a user/password on the livecd is not the correct behaviour, so it might be that your cd image is corrupt
[09:23] <z0rz> What program should I use to monitor my system stats?
[09:23] <kahrytan> balazspek, use external hdd with usb
[09:23] <Frogzoo> riaal: either xclock but also osd is not what you asked for but worth a look
[09:23] <z0rz> like a gui to top (kinda)
[09:23] <magic_ninja> z0rz: gnome-system-monitor
[09:23] <balazspek> kahrytan, thanks the infos... if i found the right solution or the problem at me i will inform you.
[09:23] <kahrytan> balazspek, 2.5" notebook drive in a case.
[09:23] <balazspek> kahrytan, ok
[09:23] <gvsa123> JonJ: ah i see... man.. i just gave the other one, probably the one i used before, to someone else... crap!
[09:23] <Frogzoo> riaal: osd_clock that is
[09:23] <kahrytan> balazspek, so it's tiny and small.
[09:23] <magic_ninja> i'm going to try to reset my cable modem
[09:23] <balazspek> kahrytan, do you have a solution for that?
[09:24] <Frogzoo> z0rz: htop might be what you want
[09:24] <balazspek> kahrytan, or same as usb boot?
[09:24] <bullgard4> English help wanted: What is the English name of a document that describes the purpose of a certain program and how to use it. I think 'program description' is not a good name for that.
[09:24] <kahrytan> balazspek, I don't know. never done it
[09:24] <Frogzoo> bullgard4: functional specification but OT
[09:25] <scguy318> bullgard4: manual? man page?
[09:25] <gvsa123> JonJ: nevermind.. i'll just wait a couple of weeks for gutsy before i get rid of xp... thanks...
[09:25] <kahrytan> balazspek, It should be noted that flash drives have a limited number of read/write events in their life span, and when their number is up, will apparently fail completely and without warning or hope of recovery (unlike disk drives which give warning signs, and from which data may be recoverable). The more intensively one uses a flash drive, the sooner it will fail.
[09:25] <Frogzoo> bullgard4: manual is good, also user guid
[09:25] <doktoreas> anyone knows if the core2 duos support 64bit?
[09:25] <gvsa123> JonJ: aha! i still have edgy!
[09:26] <kahrytan> balazspek, To the above poster: Flash _cells_ have a limited read/write lifespan, the limit being between 100,000 and 1,000,000 writes. Flash drives actually come with extra cells to be used in the event of a failure. Booting Linux off of a flash drive actually involves fewer writes to the drive than it would seem; in fact, it should not be much different than just using a flash drive to carry around document
[09:26] <magic_ninja> hrm my inet is still running incredibly slow but at least something is showing up now, i have a new interface because i got a new cable modem and it uses ethernet instead of USB, will the new interface have ipv6 on by default even if i have turned it off on the previous interface
[09:26] <balazspek> kahrytan, yes but unfortunatelly there is no warning at the usb sticks.
[09:26] <kahrytan> screw it. http://pogue.blogs.nytimes.com/2006/06/30/30pogues-posts-3/ , balazspek
[09:26] <CarlDOT> Hi, I have just installed Ubuntu on my laptop so that I can dual boot and I was just wondering if you could give me a little bit of advice as a complete and utter newbie to all things Linux
[09:27] <bullgard4> scguy318, Frogzoo: Thank you very much.
[09:27] <magic_ninja> CarlDOT: http://www.google.com/linux is all you need
[09:27] <gvsa123> JonJ: oh there you go... the same live cd worked
[09:27] <scguy318> CarlDOT: whats the question?
[09:27] <gvsa123> weird cd's
[09:27] <JonJ> Hm
[09:27] <JonJ> Strange
[09:28] <CarlDOT> and that will bring only results pertaining to Linux scguy318?
[09:28] <balazspek> kahrytan, thank you.
[09:28] <kahrytan> balazspek, They said to use puppylinux
[09:28] <bragi> join #prototype
[09:28] <kahrytan> balazspek, to limit read/writes to drive
[09:29] <CarlDOT> I'm looking for a bandwidth monitor and information on how to get my wireless network card to work and my sound card also
[09:29] <root___> wow
[09:29] <CarlDOT> Once I have those essentials I can play around with what is available
[09:29] <scguy318> CarlDOT: there should be system applet that lets you monitor network
[09:29] <balazspek> kahrytan, i will check that dist.
[09:29] <scguy318> CarlDOT: and pastebin of your lspci output would help
[09:29] <CarlDOT> Where would I find it scguy318?
[09:29] <scguy318> !pastebin | CarlDOT
[09:29] <ubotu> CarlDOT: 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)
[09:29] <kahrytan> balazspek, WHy do you want to use bootable drive?
[09:30] <scguy318> CarlDOT: right click a panel, add new item, then i think system monitor
[09:30] <kahrytan> balazspek, Isn't the live cd better?
[09:30] <kahrytan> balazspek, There is software to customize ubuntu live cd i believe.
[09:32] <CarlDOT> Got the system monitor, will that be something that gets reset every time that I reboot?
[09:32] <doktoreas> so for the core duos i should download the AMD64 bit?
[09:32] <doktoreas> also if it is intel?
[09:32] <GuHhH> hi
[09:32] <GuHhH> i need some help, i can't load my ubuntu distro, even on recovery mode...
[09:33] <scguy318> CarlDOT: yes, applets remain on the tray until you remove them
[09:33] <balazspek> kahrytan, yes of course but usb stick for booting the linux and run some programs... not for install.
[09:33] <gvsa123> ay... i can't try out the desktop effect on the live cd?
[09:33] <kahrytan> balazspek, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[09:33] <kahrytan> balazspek, Live CD can be used to run apps too
[09:34] <balazspek> kahrytan, but may better to customize a live CD and install some programs but i cannot write onto...
[09:34] <scguy318> gvsa123: prob not, your card probably needs proprietary driver for it to work, and you would have to reboot me thinks for tha
[09:34] <kahrytan> balazspek, Use Flash drive to save docs to it
[09:34] <CarlDOT> Is there anything that will monitor my network bandwidth that is accumulative? I am on a monthly cap and need to be able to have a running total so that I don't go over
[09:34] <balazspek> kahrytan, i will use a postgreSQL DB also.
[09:34] <balazspek> kahrytan, okay...
[09:35] <gvsa123> scguy318: i see... but i should be able to go online from the cd right?
[09:35] <Glock> Hiya. Just wondering if wireless network cards are going to work on Feisty =)
[09:35] <balazspek> kahrytan, i working on both solution... or... start the distrib. with form CD and backup for usb stick...
[09:35] <gvsa123> scguy318: the default brown of ubuntu looks better on my notebook than it does on the desktop... lol
[09:36] <balazspek> kahrytan, the data on usb stick only need until next restart...
[09:36] <scguy318> Glock: sure, but if it doesnt work out of box, lspci output would help :)
[09:36] <scguy318> Glock: pastebin the latter
[09:36] <scguy318> gvsa123: yes
[09:36] <JonJ> gvsa123: Do you know what kind of wireless card you have?
[09:37] <gvsa123> JonJ: PCMCIA linksys WPC54G
[09:37] <Glock> scguy318, Thank you. =) I'm checking before I buy a card. ^_^
[09:37] <kahrytan> balazspek, SQL use might hinder a live cd
[09:38] <gvsa123> man i can't remember if i heard the ubuntu drums...
[09:38] <scguy318> CarlDOT: http://www.linux.com/feature/50649, but overkill for you
[09:38] <scguy318> CarlDOT: theres probably something inthe repo
[09:39] <gvsa123> JonJ: saw it in the device manager, but with a different name...
[09:39] <JonJ> gvsa123: It looks like it has got a broadcom chipset. It may need some firmware or maybe even the windows .inf file to work.
[09:39] <hendo> hello
[09:40] <hendo> i want to install windows me on here using wine can i do that
[09:40] <hendo> i have ubuntu fiesty

[09:43] <Creed> hendo, Id go with either qemu or vmware server
[09:43] <scguy318> Savage-{: not entirely sure but I think System -> Preferences (or is it Administration) -> Sound?
[09:43] <hendo> ok
[09:43] <hendo> whats qemu
[09:43] <Savage-{> yeah I think that will just use gnome applications for that sound though let me try it
[09:43] <GuHhH> Creed: i guess so... but im trying the original one...
[09:44] <scguy318> hendo: QEMU is a VM, not sure if the Ubuntu Wiki has VM guides
[09:44] <hendo> ok
[09:44] <hendo> so what do i do
[09:44] <Creed> hendo, open source virtualization software, vmare server is closed source but free, vmware workstation is closed source and pay but much faster than server (and any other vm software imo)
[09:44] <scguy318> hendo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware(
[09:44] <scguy318> oops
[09:44] <scguy318> hendo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware
[09:44] <Rexor_Moon> I have a question
[09:44] <Creed> shoot Rexor_Moon
[09:45] <Rexor_Moon> how do I go about installing a game, Nexuiz, from a folder on my desktop
[09:45] <hendo> thanks will look now
[09:45] <scguy318> Rexor_Mood: what kind of game is it, native or Windows, and what do you have?
[09:45] <Creed> Rexor_Moon, whats inside the folder? (give some filenames)
[09:46] <Rexor_Moon> data, Nexuiz.app
[09:46] <Rexor_Moon> those are two
[09:46] <Creed> Anyone know what VPN software Hamachi/LogMeIn uses? Or how to do something similair (minus the lag that comes with openvpn).
[09:46] <Rexor_Moon> Nexuiz-SDL.app is another one
[09:46] <scguy318> Creed: Hamachi is proprietary stuff, freer stuff would be OpenVPN or SSH (not really VPN tho)
[09:46] <CarlDOT> Right I have found vnstat which seems good enough to do what I want it to do, onto the install....do I have to extract the package to the desktop before I do the make and then make install commands?
[09:46] <Creed> Rexor_Moon, that is a Mac application. I dont believe you can run that in Ubuntu without emulating OSX or another Mac OS.
[09:47] <scguy318> CarlDOT: what package do you have? is it a deb or tar?
[09:47] <CarlDOT> tar.gz
[09:47] <Rexor_Moon> nexuiz isn't mac
[09:47] <scguy318> CarlDOT: okay, a tarball, extract to an empty directory
[09:47] <scguy318> CarlDOT: take a peek at INSTALL/README
[09:47] <Creed> scguy318, yeah :( Issue with OpenVPN is the latency when gaming. SSH cant really do what I want :(
[09:47] <dew> Anyone work with Screenlets before?
[09:47] <scguy318> CarlDOT: then do: ./configure, then make, then sudo make install
[09:47] <scguy318> CarlDOT: you need to install build-essential first, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:48] <Creed> Rexor_Moon, Files with a .app extension are commonly known as Mac Applications.
[09:48] <Rexor_Moon> hmmm
[09:48] <CarlDOT> That's a command line thing right?
[09:48] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, not sure if you've seen this, but Nexuiz is availale through the synaptic repositories https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Nexuiz
[09:48] <Jordan_U> CarlDOT: What are you trying to install?
[09:48] <Rexor_Moon> I think I got it from a linux dl mirror though
[09:48] <scguy318> CarlDOT: yep
[09:48] <Savage-{> scguy318, hey I got it... asoundconf set-default-card Audigy2
[09:48] <Creed> Rexor_Moon, if its on a Mac there should be a port for Ubuntu/Linux as Mac is *nix based, same with Ubuntu.
[09:48] <scguy318> Savage-{: ah, cool :)
[09:48] <nanonyme> Creed, get dedicated servers to do the vpn tunneling?
[09:48] <CarlDOT> vnstat Jordan_U
[09:48] <scguy318> Savage-{: ty for that tidbit
[09:48] <Savage-{> or asoundconf set-default-card Headset
[09:48] <tonyyarusso> Creed: claims to be cross-platform - looking into it
[09:48] <Savage-{> np
[09:49] <unagi> can someone help me figure out why every time i restart x server doesnt start unless i 'sudo apt-get remove nvidia* && sudo apt-get install linux-generic && sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new"?
[09:49] <Jordan_U> !info vnstat | CarlDOT
[09:49] <ubotu> carldot: vnstat: console-based network traffic monitor. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.4-4 (feisty), package size 25 kB, installed size 172 kB
[09:49] <unagi> restart the pc that is
[09:49] <Rexor_Moon> thanks
[09:49] <Rexor_Moon> dgjones
[09:49] <Jordan_U> CarlDOT: Just use synaptic and install it like anything else
[09:49] <scguy318> CarlDOT: ah, so you dont have to play with the tarball after all, our repos seem to have it
[09:49] <unagi> !info envy
[09:49] <ubotu> Package envy does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[09:49] <Creed> nanonyme, still thats going through a gateway, the way Hamachi does it is a direct connection with other Hamachi users. No additional gateways (aside from the ones needed to get from 42.7.2.55 to 56.22.77.45 (examples).
[09:49] <nanonyme> ah
[09:49] <Creed> unagi, envy has to be downloaded off its website.
[09:49] <CarlDOT> Oh, so I get it the same way that I got xchat?
[09:50] <scguy318> CarlDOT: yep, Synaptic or sudo apt-get install vnstat
[09:50] <Jordan_U> CarlDOT: Yes, make sure you have universe enabled though
[09:50] <nanonyme> Creed, just wondering since afaik cpu issues are the most likely latency generators in vpn if you have a working broadband connection
[09:50] <Jordan_U> CarlDOT: ( System -> Administration -> Software Sources to enable universe if it isn't already )
[09:50] <CarlDOT> How do I enable universe?
[09:51] <CarlDOT> beat me to it
[09:51] <CarlDOT> lol
[09:51] <scguy318> CarlDOT: if you're running Feisty, I think universe should already be enabled
[09:51] <Creed> nanonyme, the latency is generated as the connection from PC1 to PC2 has to go through GATEWAY (gateway is on a DSL line). The CPU is plenty fast for it, quad-core.
[09:51] <Jordan_U> scguy318: Universe is not enabled by default in any version
[09:51] <CarlDOT> I am running the latest build, 119 updates from the ISO
[09:51] <scguy318> Jordan_U: really? i thought Feisty enabled that, i could be wrong tho
[09:52] <kdxx> http://www.alt-bin.com/index.php?pg=fd&ch=alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.complete_cd
[09:52] <Creed> scguy318, sadly no :( Not even enabled on...bah done even remember what codename 7.10 has.
[09:52] <tonyyarusso> Jordan_U: scguy318 is correct; feisty+ has all repos enabled.
[09:52] <southernman1> Jordan_U: I think it is... just installed feisty last night
[09:52] <kdxx> i want the text in the gray box
[09:52] <Jordan_U> scguy318: It offers to enable it if you try to install something from Add / Remove that needs it
[09:52] <southernman1> on a spare machine
[09:52] <scguy318> Jordan_U: I don't use Add/Remove, so I have no idea
[09:52] <CarlDOT> I have the Community Maintained Open Source ticked, is that all I have to do to switch it on?
[09:53] <scguy318> CarlDOT; yes
[09:53] <Jordan_U> southernman1: scguy318 I guess I was wrong :)
[09:53] <southernman1> Jordan_U: I edited the clean installation sources.list and universe was uncommented
[09:53] <scguy318> Jordan_U: np :)
[09:54] <southernman1> Jordan_U: no worries, I was just excited I acutally knew something! :p
[09:54] <CarlDOT> Right it's installed, how do I access it?
[09:55] <hendo> player but how does it work
[09:55] <scguy318> CarlDOT: vnstat in Terminal
[09:55] <scguy318> CarlDOT: ya i know no pretty GUI :(
[09:55] <scguy318> CarlDOT: http://humdi.net/vnstat/ shows what you can do
[09:55] <scguy318> CarlDOT: or vnstat --help
[09:56] <Creed> hendo, you cant create virtual machines with VMWare Player, that is only for running pre-existing VM's. You need Vmware Server or something else that can make VMware compatible VM images/configuration files.
[09:56] <hendo> how do you get vmplayer to work
[09:56] <hendo> ok
[09:56] <dew> ....
[09:56] <hendo> you got the link
[09:56] <gce> hendo: www.howtoforge.com has some howtos on this i believe
[09:57] <CarlDOT> Ah this is more complicated than I thought
[09:57] <Creed> hendo, you can use vmplayer afterwards to run the VM's but server is needed to create it. Check vmware.com for the server download hendo.
[09:57] <scguy318> CarlDOT: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/bandwidth-monitoring-tools-for-linux.html
[09:57] <TataraKutere> urgent, need help: i have installed fprot antivirus to scan my xp files, but it also found an infected file in xfprot folder called eicar.com... anybody have an idea of this (fprot can't disinfect or delete the file)...!!!
[09:58] <jhaig> hendo: Alternatively, you can try downloading a virtual appliance from vmware - http://www.vmware.com/appliances/
[09:58] <scguy318> TataraKutere: eicar.com is an anti-virus test file
[09:58] <tonyyarusso> erm, Rexor_Moon quit :(
[09:58] <Creed> bah beaten to it :(
[09:58] <tuxcrafte1> hello guys, i forgot the commandline command were I can set up my default email and Internet browser, can somebody enlighten me again?
[09:58] <scguy318> TataraKutere: AVs are supposed to be able to recognize it as a test for proper functionality
[09:58] <TataraKutere> ...:/ realyy
[09:58] <scguy318> TataraKutere: safe to delete
[09:58] <TataraKutere> i can't delete it, neither fprot
[09:59] <TataraKutere> should it be kept if it's harmless?
[09:59] <scguy318> TataraKutere: yeah its ok
[09:59] <Creed> TataraKutere, do you have write access enabled on the xp partition? thats prolly why you cant delete it.
[09:59] <scguy318> TataraKutere: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EICAR_test_file
[09:59] <TataraKutere> ok, thought i was in trouble (trouble usually finds me, the most new ones, and firstly me.:)).
[09:59] <TataraKutere> Thanks a lot scguy318..:)
[10:00] <dew> Anyone know if there's a way to prevent windows from minimizing when you use the "show desktop" button
[10:00] <Creed> TataraKutere, lol dont do anything that will make sure you get infected and youll never be :) I havnt recieved any virus or worm in 2 years, use antivirus software to scan once a month just in case.
[10:01] <southernman1> dew: I think that's the reason for the "show desktop" button, to minimize all windows
[10:01] <Creed> lol
[10:01] <scguy318> CarlDOT: got the link?
[10:01] <tonyyarusso> dew: Isn't that the point of that button...
[10:02] <dew> tony, southern... Yes, but it's also minimizing my Screenlets....
[10:02] <CarlDOT> Yeah scguy318, just tried installing a deb package but it failed
[10:02] <kraut> moin
[10:02] <CarlDOT> it was the bandwidthd package
[10:03] <scguy318> CarlDOT: what is the error?
[10:03] <scguy318> CarlDOT: copy terminal output to pastebin please
[10:03] <CarlDOT> Hold on, I'll have to run the install again to get it
[10:04] <chuck`_> anyone have experience with using samba to access shares on a Win2K system?
[10:04] <scguy318> CarlDOT: bandwidthd is in our repo, dont have to get it from SourceForge, if thats what ur using
[10:04] <Rexor_Moon> question again, while Nexuiz 2.3 is dling
[10:04] <scguy318> CarlDOT: a simple sudo apt-get install bandwidthd should do it
[10:05] <Rexor_Moon> how do install a program from a file on my desktop?
[10:05] <scguy318> Rexor_Moon: what file is it, and is it binary?
[10:05] <Rexor_Moon> my subject of install right now is Noctis
[10:05] <Rexor_Moon> and I don't think it's binary
[10:05] <scguy318> Rexor_Moon: what's the name of the file?
[10:05] <Rexor_Moon> noctis.zip
[10:05] <scguy318> Rexor_Moon: if you extract it to an empty folder what are some of the files inside?
[10:06] <Rexor_Moon> data, gallery, manual, modules, and GO!.EXE
[10:06] <Rexor_Moon> this possibly means it's only windows then
[10:06] <scguy318> Rexor_Moon: sounds like Windoze
[10:06] <Rexor_Moon> damnit
[10:06] <scguy318> Rexor_Moon: if its a DOS game, then probably DOSBox
[10:06] <scguy318> Rexor_Moon: if Windows then dear Wine
[10:06] <Rexor_Moon> DOS
[10:07] <scguy318> Rexor_Moon: you probably would want to use DOSBox, should be in our repos
[10:07] <kv250> hi everyone! i just added http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable non-free to my sources.list - is there a way to see what packages are in that repository??
[10:07] <scguy318> kv250: yes, open up Synaptic, and Software Sources I think
[10:07] <Rexor_Moon> I'm almost hundred percent positive, although the newest version, Noctis V, is actually being programmed in a supposedly original language called Linoleum
[10:07] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, if you download the linux version, you don't need to install it, you should just unzip the folder, and double click the relevant nexuiz-linux-???.sh file
[10:08] <kv250> if i enter that url in browser i get 404
[10:08] <southernman1> *question...
[10:08] <Rexor_Moon> dgjones: I was talking about a different game now, since Nexuiz 2.3 is still downloading
[10:08] <rathel> I'm having trouble executing a script I keep getting: 39: Syntax error: "("       What is that telling me and how would I fix it? I can't see what is wrong with the script.
[10:08] <southernman1> conky - where is it?
[10:08] <dew> Grr
[10:08] <scguy318> kv250: go to Synaptic, and then Software Sources
[10:08] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, right, sorry, i thought you were still lookiung at nexuiz
[10:09] <CarlDOT> How do I paste into the pastebin scguy318, it just told me that I look like a spammer and have to enable Javascript but I have it enabled already
[10:09] <Rexor_Moon> dgjones: it's ok, I am still, but it's not over 62% done yep
[10:09] <Rexor_Moon> yet*
[10:09] <scguy318> CarlDOT: it should be a simple matter of cut and paste, strange
[10:09] <scguy318> CarlDOT: bandwidthd is in our repos, so you dont have to use the packages from SourceForge
[10:10] <CarlDOT> ah right I have it now, it was just a matter of using my full username on here
[10:10] <CarlDOT> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36532/
[10:10] <Rexor_Moon> anyhow, that always irritates me, when Windows is used for gaming instead of Linux
[10:10] <Rexor_Moon> doesn't matter I suppose
[10:10] <southernman1> *found conky howto at u-g.com
[10:11] <scguy318> CarlDOT: strange, are you using the package from SourceForge?
[10:11] <kv250> scguy318: ok but it doesnt show what packages are in that repo
[10:11] <CarlDOT> Tried the sourceforge one and then the sudo apt-get command
[10:11] <CarlDOT> both failed the output is from the sudo command
[10:12] <scguy318> CarlDOT: okay, remove the bandwidthd by doing
[10:12] <scguy318> CarlDOT: sudo apt-get remove bandwidthd
[10:12] <CarlDOT> okay
[10:12] <scguy318> CarlDOT: then do sudo apt-get install bandwidthd again
[10:12] <rathel> I'm having trouble executing a script I keep getting: 39: Syntax error: "("       What is that telling me and how would I fix it? I can't see what is wrong with the script.
[10:12] <scguy318> CarlDOT: if that should feil again, then just remove, then sudo apt-get clean, then reinstal
[10:13] <scguy318> CarlDOT: i can see that apt-get is trying to install the SourceForge package
[10:13] <CarlDOT> for the clean command I need to add bandwidthd to the end of the command right?
[10:14] <scguy318> CarlDOT: no, just sudo apt-get clean
[10:14] <CarlDOT> same error after the clean
[10:14] <scguy318> CarlDOT: error processing? hum
[10:14] <CarlDOT> error code 1 again
[10:15] <dew> Anyone out there with an idea
[10:15] <scguy318> CarlDOT: mm, do sudo apt-get --purge bandwidthd
[10:15] <scguy318> CarlDOT: then install again, if that fails
[10:15] <scguy318> CarlDOT: then I wil find you the packages from the Ubuntu repo
[10:16] <scguy318> CarlDOT: and ill give you the links for instal
[10:16] <CarlDOT> Invalid operation bandwidthd from the purge command
[10:17] <scguy318> CarlDOT: oh oops mah bad, sudo apt-get --purge remove bandwidthd
[10:17] <mojojojo_> my Applications and System Menus are gone... how can I restore them???
[10:17] <unagi> ccan someone explain to me why i have to uninstall and reinstall my nvidia drivers every time i restart?
[10:17] <scguy318> mojojojo_: right click, add new item, Main Menu applet?
[10:18] <CarlDOT> Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal.
[10:18] <Savage-{> scguy318, hey that didn't work for enemy territory though
[10:18] <Savage-{> scguy318, still trying to figure out what to use
[10:18] <Savage-{> but gnome is using the other sound device
[10:18] <rathel> I'm having trouble executing a script I keep getting: 39: Syntax error: "("       What is that telling me and how would I fix it? I can't see what is wrong with the script.
[10:18] <CarlDOT> This is much harder than I thought it would be, lol
[10:18] <Frogzoo_> mojojojo_: try  sudo gconf-schemas --register desktop_gnome_interface.schemas
[10:19] <hendo> i just downloaded vmware-player and it is a tar.gz
[10:19] <ribena007> CarlDOT don't give in :P when you get it working its worth it lol
[10:19] <CarlDOT> although having said that, it's getting me used to the old command line and terminal use so it's all good :)
[10:19] <scguy318> CarlDOT: mm, uh oh, i think SF deb scrweed stuff up
[10:19] <hendo> how do you install it
[10:19] <scguy318> CarlDOT: mmmmmm
[10:19] <unagi> please........how can i solve this
[10:19] <mojojojo_> scguy318,  this won't work
[10:19] <mojojojo_> Frogzoo, ok, I'' try that, just a sec
[10:19] <scguy318> CarlDOT: sudo apt-get -f remove bandwidthd
[10:19] <CarlDOT> nah I'm not giving up, I'd love to be able to do all my day to day stuff in Ubuntu, once I get it figured completely I want to switch to it completely
[10:20] <scguy318> CarlDOT: i think what happened was
[10:20] <CarlDOT> okay
[10:20] <scguy318> CarlDOT: you tried to upgrade from the broken SF package
[10:20] <hendo> do i need to go into terminal to install
[10:20] <scguy318> CarlDOT: causing utter failure
[10:20] <unagi> ccan someone explain to me why i have to uninstall and reinstall my nvidia drivers every time i restart?
[10:20] <scguy318> hendo: prob
[10:20] <scguy318> unagi: mebbe the xorg.conf changes arent keeping?
[10:20] <mojojojo_> Frogzoo, no... I'm afraid menus didn't reappear
[10:20] <unagi> why would that be
[10:21] <hendo> it is a tar.gz
[10:21] <CarlDOT> same error on the remove command, the message about reinstalling before removing
[10:21] <scguy318> unagi: dunno, whats the specific X Server error?
[10:21] <unagi> no screens found
[10:21] <Frogzoo_> mojojojo_: log out/back in
[10:21] <CarlDOT> I attempted to reinstall twice from sourceforce .deb file
[10:21] <unagi> or screens found but no usable configureation
[10:21] <scguy318> CarlDOT: can you copy that single line about reinstalling? i want to look it up
[10:21] <hendo> what do i open the tar.gz with
[10:22] <CarlDOT> Yep, one sec
[10:22] <CarlDOT>  Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
[10:22] <CarlDOT>  reinstall it before attempting a removal.
[10:22] <scguy318> ty
[10:22] <CarlDOT> That's what it says
[10:23] <CarlDOT> The specific error that it is giving is...
[10:23] <CarlDOT> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[10:23] <scguy318> CarlDOT: sudo dpkg --force-remove-reinstreq -P bandwidthd
[10:23] <scguy318> CarlDOT: then proceed with install from repo
[10:24] <scguy318> CarlDOT: dont play with the SF deb anymore :P
[10:24] <rathel> I'm having trouble with a script I keep getting: 39: Syntax error: "("       What is that telling me and how would I fix it? I can't see what is wrong with the script.
[10:24] <CarlDOT> lol...I won't, that returned an error too
[10:24] <CarlDOT> I'll stick it in the paste bin
[10:24] <hendo> i cant open this tar.gz
[10:24] <unagi> i really dont understand this.............i have to reinstall the drivers every time??
[10:25] <CarlDOT> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36533/ scguy318
[10:25] <SlimeyPete> unagi: sounds like the module isn't being loaded on boot
[10:25] <furenku> when i checkout from cvs do i also need to install afterwards?
[10:26] <SlimeyPete> furenku: yes. CVS just grabs source code. You need to compile and install.
[10:26] <mojojojo_> Frogzoo_, I din't help either...
[10:26] <scguy318> CarlDOT: ty lemme look
[10:26] <unagi> it talks about a module mismatch
[10:26] <CarlDOT> k scguy318
[10:27] <SlimeyPete> unagi: see http://episteme.arstechnica.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/96509133/m/249002876831
[10:27] <Rexor_Moon> ok, nexuiz finished dling
[10:27] <hendo> i cant install vmware player
[10:27] <scguy318> CarlDOT: imma take this shot: lemme get the link for the Ubuntu deb

[10:30] <Frogzoo_> mojojojo_: ask in #gnome I guess
[10:30] <scguy318> CarlDOT: sure I guess, or sudo dpkg -i
[10:30] <Rexor_Moon> and how do I go about enabling the extra repositories?
[10:30] <SlimeyPete> !universe | Rexor_Moon
[10:30] <josehc> ola
[10:30] <ubotu> Rexor_Moon: 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
[10:30] <scguy318> CarlDOT: if this feils, then I have THE one I will fall back to
[10:30] <scguy318> CarlDOT: be a bit messy though, the SF deb did a number
[10:30] <SlimeyPete> Rexor_Moon: follow those instructions
[10:31] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, have you downloaded the version in synaptic, or the latest version, i though it was the latest version you'd mentioned?
[10:31] <Rexor_Moon> yes
[10:31] <CarlDOT> Failed again mate
[10:31] <unagi> i dont understand this
[10:31] <unagi> what is the nvidia kernel and how do i get rid of it
[10:32] <CarlDOT> That's the last time I goto sourceforge in linux
[10:32] <CarlDOT> lol
[10:32] <scguy318> CarlDOT: checkinstalling tarball would be preferred :P
[10:32] <scguy318> CarlDOT: o
[10:32] <scguy318> CarlDOT: ok
[10:32] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, all i did with the version from sourceforge was to unzip the file to a folder, open the folder and double click one of the two files ending in .sh, there was nothing to do with installing, everything was in the folder ready
[10:32] <CarlDOT> How do I do that?
[10:33] <CarlDOT> the checkinstalling tarball I mean
[10:33] <scguy318> CarlDOT: if you were doing a checkinstall
[10:33] <scguy318> CarlDOT: you would go through the whole ./configure && make routine
[10:33] <kogler> I'm having issues with my tty consoles namely, the font is way too large and it goes off the screen
[10:33] <scguy318> CarlDOT: then u do sudo checkinstal, fill in stuff, it makes a DEB for you
[10:33] <scguy318> CarlDOT: ok
[10:33] <scguy318> CarlDOT: back to the issue
[10:33] <Rexor_Moon> dgjones: thing is, I don't know where to unzip the files to
[10:33] <CarlDOT> ah right I have no idea about that at the moment
[10:33] <lobosque> how do i mount a ntfs hd to be writeable?
[10:33] <CarlDOT> I am a complete novice at this stuff
[10:34] <CarlDOT> With xchat I actually got it from http://seerofsouls.com/dists/dapper/contrib/binary-i386/
[10:34] <CarlDOT> Just clicked the deb file and it all installed for me
[10:34] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, to start with, just unzip it to your desktop, or somewhere in your /home folder, that way you'll have all the access rights needed to create the folder etc
[10:34] <scguy318> CarlDOT: okay, time to edit /var/lib/dpkg/status
[10:34] <furenku> i cant find where cvs checked out the files!!! how can i see this??
[10:35] <scguy318> CarlDOT: yeah i know this is getting WAY too complicated
[10:35] <CarlDOT> I'm ready mate....only way to learn :)
[10:35] <scguy318> CarlDOT: and apologies for pain but yeah
[10:35] <lobosque> how do i mount a ntfs hd to be writeable?
[10:35] <scguy318> lobosque: sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[10:35] <scguy318> lobosque: then run NTFS config util
[10:35] <scguy318> CarlDOT: you want cmd-line or GUI?
[10:35] <lobosque> scguy318 i did
[10:35] <lobosque> but it still not working
[10:35] <CarlDOT> Which is better?
[10:36] <CarlDOT> You choose...I have to learn either way
[10:36] <scguy318> CarlDOT: whatever floats your boat or makes you comfortable
[10:36] <Rexor_Moon> dgjones: k, that's already been done.  Btw, will I get the same results by using the synaptic package manager?
[10:36] <scguy318> CarlDOT: lets go with nano
[10:36] <scguy318> CarlDOT: sudo nano /var/lib/dpkg/status
[10:36] <kogler> I've also experienced some issues with the graphics, such as freezing when swapping between tty and Graphical.
[10:36] <scguy318> CarlDOT: press Ctrl-W, type bandwidthd
[10:36] <kogler> HAs anyone else had similar issues?
[10:36] <WONToN> lobosque, sudo chmod -R 0777 /media/ntfsdisk
[10:36] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, i'm not sure about synaptic, i would have thought that would install it somewhere else (but i don't know where)
[10:36] <scguy318> CarlDOT: then Enter, you should be taken to a line that says Package: bandwidthd
[10:37] <CarlDOT> yep got it
[10:37] <scguy318> CarlDOT: change the Status line under it to Status: install ok installed
[10:37] <scguy318> CarlDOT: then press Ctrl-O, then Enter, then Ctrl-X to exit
[10:37] <Rexor_Moon> well, right now it says that it's downloading the files on synaptic, so I'm wondering if it actually is getting the real 2.3 version I want or merely an older version
[10:37] <scguy318> CarlDOT: then lets try to remove that package
[10:38] <CarlDOT> done
[10:38] <CarlDOT> Which version of the command do you want me to use to get rid of it?
[10:38] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, by putting it in you /home folder, it effectively restricts access to whoever's folder it belongs to, i'd expect synaptic would put it somewhere with common access for all users and probably add an entry to the games menu
[10:38] <lobosque> the problem is that
[10:39] <scguy318> CarlDOT: um, the dpkg one
[10:39] <Rexor_Moon> dgjones: thing is, I can't see yet, as it's actually downloading it says
[10:39] <scguy318> CarlDOT: i forgot what it was exactly momento
[10:39] <lobosque> with "sudo fdisk -l | grep NTFS | awk '{print $1}'" it do not show the partition that i want
[10:39] <CarlDOT> force remove yes?
[10:39] <scguy318> CarlDOT: sudo dpkg --force-remove-reinstreq -P bandwidthd
[10:39] <scguy318> yep
[10:39] <scguy318> CarlDOT: cross fingers, else we can try to perform an upgrade
[10:40] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, once its installed, just have a quick look, that website i linked to before suggested that the synaptic version wasn't the most up-to-date, but would be the recommended one
[10:40] <scguy318> CarlDOT: to upgrade simply do sudo apt-get upgrade
[10:40] <scguy318> CarlDOT: and where do you live CarlDOT?
[10:40] <kogler> Is it possible to change my tty font size?
[10:40] <WONToN> lobosque, what does it show
[10:41] <CarlDOT> UK, I have a new error, I'm pasting it
[10:41] <Frogzoo_> kogler: you mean tty, not xterm ?
[10:41] <scguy318> ok
[10:41] <lobosque> it shows hdb1 and hdb5
[10:41] <Poet_with_a_Gun> Anyone got a minute to help me with a problem?
[10:41] <Rexor_Moon> dgjones: well answer me this then, is the synaptic given access to the same files which the add/remove programs function has access to?
[10:41] <CarlDOT> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36534/
[10:41] <WONToN> lobosque, what do you want it to show?
[10:42] <Frogzoo_> Poet_with_a_Gun: we don't know
[10:42] <Rexor_Moon> yep
[10:42] <iplayfast> I'm stuck with one desktop. Anybody know how to make 8?
[10:42] <Rexor_Moon> you were right, it's the older version on synaptic
[10:42] <scguy318> CarlDOT: try upgrading
[10:42] <lobosque> WONToN  before,how do i see the name "hda, hdb" off all partitions?
[10:42] <CarlDOT> Another error
[10:42] <Poet_with_a_Gun> LOL does it depend on the question?
[10:43] <Poet_with_a_Gun> Frogzoo: Does it depend on the question?
[10:43] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, i'm not sure about synaptic and add/remove programs, i would have thought so though
[10:43] <WONToN> lobosque, just fdisk -l
[10:43] <CarlDOT> Seems very similar to the last one
[10:43] <Poet_with_a_Gun> sorry lagging a touch.
[10:43] <scguy318> CarlDOT: same issue, hum
[10:43] <atlas95> hello
[10:43] <atlas95> is Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N working with gusty?
[10:43] <southernman1> atlas95: Hi there
[10:43] <CarlDOT> Shall I paste the upgrade error?
[10:43] <Rexor_Moon> dgjones: it seems that synaptic has the same file database to draw from as add/remove programs
[10:43] <scguy318> CarlDOT: no thats ok
[10:43] <lobosque> WONToN it do not show me anything
[10:43] <scguy318> CarlDOT: im thinking
[10:43] <Jowi> Poet_with_a_Gun, the more descriptive your question is the larger the chance you get a good answer :)
[10:43] <CarlDOT> k
[10:44] <CarlDOT> At least I know how to use nano so far
[10:44] <ktostaki> Can you tell me how can I stop/start apache server?
[10:44] <Frogzoo_> Poet_with_a_Gun: we can't help with personal issues
[10:44] <Rexor_Moon> dgjones: anyhow, how do I go about installing the 2.3 version I manually got?
[10:44] <WONToN> lobosque, did u sudo fdisk -l ?
[10:44] <southernman1> ktostaki: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload
[10:45] <southernman1> ktostaki: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start
[10:45] <Poet_with_a_Gun> Here goes then. My system has two hd's hooked up to it. One is NTFS and is called "storeage" and the main Linux and called "filesystem" I had access to both just dandy and perfect. I could read and write to both beacuse I got the NTFS configuration tool. Well I just used ENVY to get nvidia working properly and now I can't mount my storeage drive.
[10:45] <southernman1> ktostaki: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop
[10:45] <CarlDOT> Wow, Linux is so light in terms of what it uses on the system
[10:45] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, if you've got the zipped file and extracted the folder, just navigate into the folder and look for the two files ended .sh, one of those will run the game, i didn't need to do anything else to install
[10:45] <kogler> Frogzoo_ erm, well it's the one that appears when I hit ctrl alt F*
[10:45] <CarlDOT> I wish I'd given it a bigger partition now
[10:46] <Poet_with_a_Gun> It's also telling me that I need to boot windows twice when I try to use the NTFS tool, but I was just dirty mounting it and all *was* well. There is no windows any more.
[10:46] <scguy318> CarlDOT: anything critical on the Ubuntu sytem?
[10:46] <scguy318> CarlDOT: cuz you just might get your wish :P
[10:46] <CarlDOT> Critical?
[10:46] <scguy318> CarlDOT: like important
[10:46] <scguy318> CarlDOT: any personal stuff you need to keep? back it up
[10:46] <CarlDOT> Nah, it's less than 2hrs old
[10:46] <CarlDOT> lol
[10:46] <scguy318> CarlDOT: im at wits end tbh :(
[10:47] <Rexor_Moon> dgjones: ok good that works, but how do go about actually making it so it appears in the game menu?
[10:47] <scguy318> CarlDOT: i reallllly dont want to play with dpkg internals
[10:47] <CarlDOT> I can get the bookmarks again they're on my server
[10:47] <WONToN> Poet_with_a_Gun, there's a linux tool to fix that, i just can't remember it )X
[10:47] <CarlDOT> Reinstall?
[10:47] <scguy318> CarlDOT: i think prob editing the bandwidthd script or wutever
[10:47] <scguy318> CarlDOT: yes
[10:47] <Frogzoo_> kogler: /etc/default/console-setup
[10:47] <scguy318> CarlDOT: would be it but I am clueless on that
[10:47] <scguy318> CarlDOT: and getting late its 3:47 AM and I have school :P
[10:47] <CarlDOT> Is that as simple as booting back into Vista, resizing the partition and then overwriting the existing Linux partition?
[10:48] <scguy318> CarlDOT: absolutely
[10:48] <southernman1> scguy318: where are you? ifn' you don't mind
[10:48] <WONToN> lobosque, did sudo fdisk -l work?
[10:48] <scguy318> southernman1: Dallas, Texas
[10:48] <aztec13> A few weeks back I discovered yet another absolutely free  really cool thing to be found in Ubuntu. Live Police/Fire/Rail/Marine Scanning for 100's of places even some foreign. In almost every music player or Jukebox you'll find a podcast/streamcast capable for these channels. Some better then others, and for some reason you may have to "toy" with plug-ins and lib's.  But not with "Tunapie"...
[10:48] <dgjones> Rexor_Moon, adding it to the game menu, i'm not sure about, you'd be better asking generally in the channel for that, i never bothered adding it to the menu
[10:48] <aztec13> ...it seems to come complete. It runs off my Xmms so it's extremely lightweight. To get started search "scanner" and voila ! Your results should start piling up. Here is a list of all local call signs, signals, and jargon. http://www.bearcat1.com/radionv.htm
[10:48] <Poet_with_a_Gun> it's not "ntfs configuration tool" is it because that's just ot let me write to the ntfs drive.
[10:48] <scguy318> CarlDOT: next time around
[10:48] <kogler> Frogzoo_ command not found
[10:48] <scguy318> CarlDOT: give /home its own partition :P
[10:48] <southernman1> scguy318: mississippi
[10:48] <Frogzoo_> kogler: it's a file - you edit it
[10:48] <scguy318> CarlDOT: i apologize for the inconveinence
[10:48] <scguy318> southernman1: cool
[10:48] <Rexor_Moon> ok anybody, how do I go about making a game appear in the game menu?
[10:48] <scguy318> CarlDOT: 2 hrs old install wiped :P :(
[10:48] <CarlDOT> How do I give /home it's own partition?
[10:49] <scguy318> CarlDOT: when you are running the installer
[10:49] <scguy318> CarlDOT: do manual partitioning
[10:49] <scguy318> CarlDOT: and create another ext3 part and give it mount point /home
[10:49] <CarlDOT> Nah mate, it's my fault for messing around with what I didn't know
[10:49] <lobosque> WONToN i have two nfts partition, but i can mount just one!
[10:49] <scguy318> CarlDOT: i should have told u to just use repos
[10:49] <ktostaki> southernman1: hmm... if I use this: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop It seems that it does not work because the startup site is still loaded when I want.
[10:49] <WONToN> Rexor_Moon, system > preferences > main menu
[10:49] <CarlDOT> So 2 partitions and a swap file?
[10:49] <scguy318> CarlDOT: i probably misinterpreted your thing
[10:49] <scguy318> CarlDOT: yeah
[10:49] <scguy318> CarlDOT: if you got enough mem u might not even need swap thb
[10:49] <lobosque> WONToN it do not work not even if i do it manually
[10:50] <WONToN> lobosque, what are you doing to mount them?
[10:50] <scguy318> CarlDOT: as usual backup :)
[10:50] <CarlDOT> Excellent, I'll do that and then start again. I appreciate the help mate, I know a little more than I did when this started thanks to you :)
[10:50] <scguy318> CarlDOT: and sorry for the pain
[10:50] <scguy318> CarlDOT: np
[10:50] <lobosque> WONToN https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G
[10:50] <CarlDOT> Ah I don't have any back-ups just the factory restore disk
[10:50] <lobosque> the manual way
[10:50] <CarlDOT> mp3 and video are on external HDD
[10:50] <scguy318> CarlDOT: well, just backup your personal stuff :)
[10:50] <scguy318> CarlDOT: kk cool
[10:50] <southernman1> ktostaki: did you setup a new site in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled?
[10:50] <CarlDOT> The laptop itself is only a few days old, I haven't had time to move them over yet
[10:50] <CarlDOT> lol
[10:51] <lobosque> WONToN i'm gonna reboot
[10:51] <WONToN> k
[10:51] <Frogzoo_> someone recommend a text based mp3 player ?
[10:51] <CarlDOT> So I get xchat AND bandwidthd from the synaptic thing yes?
[10:51] <scguy318> CarlDOT: im gonna jet, got school in a few hours, g/l with reinstall
[10:51] <WONToN> i'll be here
[10:51] <scguy318> CarlDOT: yep
[10:51] <scguy318> CarlDOT: stick with the ubuntu repos and you will be safe :D
[10:51] <kogler> Frogzoo_ I don't that that's the issue. I suspected driver issue, but I've set xserver to its default
[10:51] <southernman1> scguy318: gnite
[10:51] <scguy318> night
[10:51] <CarlDOT> No worries mate...appreciate your help :)
[10:51] <CarlDOT> Sleep well :)
[10:52] <ktostaki> southernman1: No. MaybeI should use this sudo /etc/init.d/apache stop not this: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 sto
[10:52] <scguy318> have a good night one more thing where r u anyway?
[10:52] <Frogzoo_> kogler: changing that file will change font size in your ttys - I've done it myself
[10:52] <scguy318> CarlDOT: if you dont mind, where do you live?
[10:52] <southernman1> ktostaki: are you using apache1.x.x or apache2.x.x
[10:52] <scguy318> oh you left pfft
[10:53] <southernman1> lol @ scguy318 - he's cool like that
[10:53] <southernman1> oops
[10:53] <Poet_with_a_Gun> well dammit. All my vids are on that drive :(
[10:53] <kogler> Frogzoo_ I'm sure you have. I've also tried it, and it's not making any change.
[10:54] <ktostaki> southernman1: I don't know. This command works: /etc/init.d/apache stop and this also: /etc/init.d/apache stop
[10:55] <southernman1> ktostaki: you must be using apache 1 version then... What OS are you using Dapper, Feisty?
[10:55] <ktostaki> southernman1: Dapper.
[10:56] <southernman1> ktostaki: odd... me too. swore I used apache2 in the commands given you
[10:56] <southernman1> anyone back that up / confirm that?
[10:57] <ktostaki> southernman1: but commands for apache 2.0 works too, but there is any effect but when I use command for apache 1.3 then I cant enter startup site
[10:58] <ktostaki> southernman1: There is:  * Stopping apache 2.0 web server...  and also  * Stopping apache 1.3 web server...
[10:58] <southernman1> ktostaki: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[10:59] <southernman1> ktostaki: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload - these should work period
[10:59] <ktostaki> southernman1: This dont have any effect.
[11:00] <ktostaki> southernman1: This command also have not any effect.
[11:00] <southernman1> ktostaki: if you have not setup a new site (other than the default) then it will only load the default site.
[11:00] <southernman1> ktostaki: to create a new site do these following commands...
[11:01] <TylerJGillies> when i play a sound in firefox it locks my sound device so i can't play a sound in audacity even when i close the page that was playing the sound in firefox. anyone have a solution please? :)
[11:01] <southernman1> ktostaki: sudo cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/default /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite
[11:01] <ktostaki> southernman1: I know, but it seems that only this command do any effect: /etc/init.d/apache stop and /etc/init.d/apache start and thats all.
[11:02] <Poet_with_a_Gun> So okay, I can dirty mount my ntfs drive and access it via the CLI but I can't see it via the gui. Any ideas how to fix it?
[11:03] <Poet_with_a_Gun> And how to get rid of the need to "run windows twice yadda yadda?"
[11:03] <kdxx> i want to insert a line of text every 86 "words" delimeterd by 1 space in a text file, can anyone help me please?
[11:04] <southernman1> ktostaki: sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites_available/mysite (edit as you need it to be)
[11:04] <southernman1> ktostaki: sudo a2dissite default && sudo a2ensite mysite
[11:04] <ktostaki> southernman1: Do you know why I have apache and apache 2 directories in /etc? I only want have one apache not twice.
[11:04] <MoLE_> kdxx, I'd probably start with "man sed"
[11:05] <ktostaki> southernman1: But why I should do this all commands?
[11:05] <southernman1> ktostaki: the only reason *should* be that you have installed both of them for some reason
[11:05] <Poet_with_a_Gun> well dangit. Maybe I'll have better luck on the boards :(
[11:05] <paul_> Hello...
[11:05] <southernman1> ktostaki: at this point, I don't know... not until you get your apache installation squared away
[11:06] <Fiskus> haloo
[11:06] <southernman1> ktostaki: are you running a pure server or a desktop with a server installed on top
[11:07] <ktostaki> southernman1: It is my personal computer. And I have installed apache long days ago.
[11:08] <southernman1> ktostaki: you need to do sudo aptitude --purge apache ( to remove apache 1.3 including configuration files)
[11:08] <ktostaki> southernman1: Hmm... does php 5 can use apache 1.3?
[11:08] <bullgard4> Update Manager informs that there is a newer version available of the DEB program package dpkg-dev than is installed on my Ubuntu 7.04. But Update Manager does not allow me to select this check box. Why? (Such never happened to me before.)
[11:09] <southernman1> ktostaki: you may even want to remove all instances of apache php and any databases you have installed and start clean
[11:09] <Rexor_Moon> I'm wondering about something, in the users and groups menu under system/administration/users and groups, is root supposed to be there as a user?
[11:09] <ktostaki> southernman1: you know because I have already installed php5 and sinaptic have installed some files...
[11:09] <southernman1> ktostaki: yes... it can
[11:09] <jhaig> Rexor_Moon: Yes, although by default you cannot log in as root (on Ubuntu)
[11:10] <southernman1> ktostaki: you can remove it all in synaptic or via the command line with the --purge flag
[11:10] <Rexor_Moon> I know, and I don't want to, but what I'm saying is, am I right in thinking that it would be extremely unwise to delete the root user account?
[11:10] <jhaig> Rexor_Moon: Erm, yes I think it would be unwise.
[11:10] <Rexor_Moon> lolz, thought so
[11:10] <ktostaki> southernman1: I will uninstall every apache and php 5 package. It is a good idea, isn't it?
[11:10] <Jordan_U> bullgard4:What does "sudo apt-get upgrade" show ( use pastebin )
[11:10] <Jordan_U> ?
[11:10] <southernman1> lol with jhaig
[11:10] <jhaig> Rexor_Moon: I'm not sure, but I would guess that it would prevent you from doing any admin tasks ever again.
[11:10] <Rexor_Moon> lolz, good thing I didn't do anything to it then
[11:11] <southernman1> ktostaki: I think it would be at this point
[11:11] <gnuskool_> :D
[11:11] <Frogzoo_> kogler: oh - you have to reboot
[11:11] <ktostaki> southernman1: ok
[11:11] <Jordan_U> Rexor_Moon: You can't delete root
[11:11] <Rexor_Moon> hmm, really?
[11:12] <sc|martin> guten morgen. gibt es eine ubuntu minimal version? ich brauche nur was zum testen, klein und schnell.
[11:12] <jhaig> Rexor_Moon: "sudo" runs a command as another user, not as yourself but with admin rights as you might think that it does.  If a user (eg, 'root') does not exist then you cannot run things as that user.

[11:12] <Rexor_Moon> Jordan_U: if it really is impossible to delete root, then how does it make it appear as if it's possible to do so under user settings in the users and groups menu?
[11:12] <sc|martin> thx
[11:13] <sc|martin> nice day
[11:13] <southernman1> ktostaki: you still there?
[11:13] <Jordan_U> Rexor_Moon: I am not sure what that would do, but I seriously doubt you could remove the root user, and if you could you could get it back by booting into single user mode
[11:14] <Bysmeden> need some help installing gfx card, i got the fil Nvidia-linux....run tried to start it with Sh but i didnt work , any ideas ?  total newbie
[11:14] <ktostaki> southernman1: Yes. Give me a moment.
[11:14] <southernman1> ktostaki: have a look at this link if you've not done so already... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[11:14] <Rexor_Moon> hmm, well I'm not keen to mess around with it
[11:14] <jamyskis> hi everyone...does anyone know of a quick and easy way to create a wireless access point under ubuntu with a wlan usb key? i have the wlan and wmaster interfaces in iwconfig and ifconfig but im not sure how to get it visible to my laptop and psp
[11:15] <Rexor_Moon> anyhow, I have to delete a file under my home folder, and I'm denied the rights to modify or delete the file since I'm not root
[11:15] <southernman1> ktostaki: ok, but I'll be signing off shortly.
[11:15] <jhaig> Jordan_U: Could you boot into single user mode if root doesn't exist?  The single user you are booted into is root.
[11:15] <Rexor_Moon> so, I'm assuming I'll have to terminal and then sudo, but I don't know where to go past that point.
[11:15] <Jordan_U> jamyskis: Did you try creating a new wireless network in network-manager?
[11:15] <ktostaki> southernman1: ok. thanks for help at this point:)
[11:16] <jhaig> Rexor_Moon: What permissions and ownership does the file have?
[11:16] <Rexor_Moon> jhaig: the owner is root
[11:16] <southernman1> ktostaki: we didn't get anything resolved really, but you'll be able to get where you want to be with that link and the help of others here
[11:16] <Jordan_U> jhaig: For some reason I think it would work, though now that I think of it I am not sure where the shell that you would be brought to would be defined if you deleted /root
[11:17] <jhaig> Rexor_Moon: You can delete it with "sudo rm <filename>"
[11:17] <ktostaki> southernman1: Yes but thx for interest.
[11:17] <m4st3r> Hi all
[11:17] <jamyskis> Jordan_U: i did, and all it does is disconnect my wired network connection such that i dont have internet anymore
[11:17] <southernman1> gnight - good morning (as the case may be) to ktostaki, Jordan_U, and everyone else
[11:17] <jhaig> Rexor_Moon: In general, to use sudo you just need to type sudo followed by the command you want to execute.  By default, sudo runs it as root.
[11:17] <jamyskis> Jordan_U: and my psp doesnt find the wlan connection then anyway
[11:18] <nooga> hi
[11:18] <ktostaki> southernman1: see you;] 
[11:18] <southernman1> ktostaki: your welcome :)
[11:18] <m4st3r> plz recommand blog about ubuntu
[11:18] <Jordan_U> m4st3r: None
[11:18] <Rexor_Moon> jhaig: thing is, I just want to remove that particular file, I don't want to remove everything called Nexuiz on my computer
[11:18] <nooga> i'd like to upgrade from dapper to some higher version via apt-get upgrade
[11:18] <Jordan_U> m4st3r: Stay away from blogs in general
[11:18] <nooga> is it risky?
[11:18] <m4st3r> Jordan_U, I dont got it
[11:19] <Jordan_U> m4st3r: The wiki and other official documentation is almost invariably better
[11:19] <stefg> m4st3r: http://planet.ubuntu.com/
[11:19] <nooga> hm?;/
[11:19] <m4st3r> Jordan_U, aha ok copy that
[11:19] <Jordan_U> m4st3r: Though to be clear for Ubuntu news and such Blogs are fine I guess
[11:19] <m4st3r> Jordan_U, thanks :)
[11:20] <Jordan_U> m4st3r: np :)
[11:20] <Aminux> i have a question,ubuntu run in 32bit color or 24bit color?
[11:20] <m4st3r> Jordan_U, np? whats that?
[11:20] <nooga> I'd like to upgrade from dapper to some higher version via apt-get upgrade. is it risky?
[11:20] <Jordan_U> Aminux: 24 bit color in Linux is the same as 32 bit in windows
[11:20] <Jordan_U> m4st3r: No Problem
[11:21] <m4st3r> Jordan_U, aha :)
[11:21] <Aminux> Jordan_U: thats weird cuz the colors look different for worse in Ubuntu
[11:21] <Rexor_Moon> so, if I go "sudo rm Nexuiz, will it only remove the Nexuiz file in my /home folder as I wish it to?
[11:21] <nooga> :(
[11:22] <Jordan_U> Aminux: Can you give an example screen shot?
[11:22] <jhaig> Rexor_Moon: It will do what "rm Nexiuz" would do if you had permissions, so yes it would only delete the single file.
[11:22] <Aminux> Jordan_U: i can but not right now
[11:22] <yjwong> Aminux, the extra 8 bits on Windows is the alpha channel
[11:22] <Jordan_U> Rexor_Moon: If you are ever not sure use "rm -i
[11:23] <Aminux> yjwong: so,how do you fix the alpha channel on ubuntu?
[11:23] <stefg> nooga: ubuntu upgrades do not support skipping versions, so to get from 6.06 to 7.04 you're facing *two* upgrades (6.06 -> 6.10 -> 7.04) That's risky and inefficient. rather see !clone and consider to do a backup and a fresh feisty install
[11:23] <Rexor_Moon> hmm, it tells me that it can't do it because Nexuiz is a directory
[11:23] <yjwong> Aminux, you don't need to fix
[11:23] <Jordan_U> Rexor_Moon: The -i makes it ask you if you are sure you want to delete for every file that it would delete if you ran the command without -i ( poorly worded explanation, but hopefully you get what I mean )
[11:23] <stefg> !coning | nooga
[11:23] <yjwong> Windows's 32-bit color isn't real
[11:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about coning - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[11:23] <gypsymauro> hi
[11:24] <Aminux> yjwong: so ive heard
[11:24] <nooga> oh
[11:24] <yjwong> Your monitor can only display 24-bits maximum, and the transparency is simulated by software/hardware
[11:24] <Aminux> yjwong: but still color depth looks better in xp
[11:24] <nooga> ubotu: thnx

[11:24] <gypsymauro> I'm trying to use ubuntu live for resize a NTFS partition it works a little but after a while it mounts the partition automatically and the resizing fails..
[11:24] <yjwong> Aminux, not sure, but a screenshot would be great. Both does not have difference to me (at least on two of my computers running Ubuntu)
[11:25] <Rexor_Moon> Jordan_U: hmm, I wonder what it means, it says that it can't remove the file I want to remove because that file is a directory
[11:25] <jhaig> Rexor_Moon: Use rmdir to delete directories.  Also, the directory needs to be empty first.
[11:25] <Aminux> yjwong: where can i post the screenshot?
[11:26] <yjwong> Aminux, just anyway. Imageshack is OK too.
[11:26] <Jordan_U> Rexor_Moon: You need to either use rmdir if it's empty or add -R ( rm -i -R )
[11:26] <Rexor_Moon> ok, it worked, thanks Jordan_U

[11:26] <jscinoz> hey guys, i want to install a java application, if i have a choice between a normal java version or a GCJ version, which should i use?
[11:26] <lobosque> amarok is crashing when i open it, and i want to reset all the configuration. how do i?
[11:26] <Jordan_U> jscinoz: Depends on the application
[11:27] <jscinoz> Sancho, a GUI for mldonkey
[11:27] <joycetick> anybody know of a good channel to get help on recovering files from a corrupt hdd? (using xp)
[11:27] <yjwong> lobosque, I don't use KDE, but all the relevant settings should be in ~/.amarok/ (correct me if i'm wrong though)
[11:27] <ikonia> joycetick #windows
[11:27] <lobosque> yjwong i'm in gnome
[11:28] <jhaig> Jordan_U: The -r switch for rm should come with a health warning.  ;-)
[11:28] <joycetick> ikonia: thx... why didnt i think of that :P
[11:28] <yjwong> ah, you are running Amarok in GNOME. But the location for configuration should be the same.
[11:28] <beeew> can anyone do an apt-get in here?
[11:28] <yjwong> You might want to consider Exaile, an Amarok clone for GNOME.
[11:29] <beeew> can someone verify the ubuntu.com server is down?
[11:29] <symonc> Hi Ubuntuers! I'm trying to work recursively through a directory tree of WAVE and CUE files, applying the command "cuebreakpoints *.cue | shnsplit -o flac *.wav" --- I want to use the 'find' command, but I'm getting nowhere.  I'm hoping that someone here will be able to produce a command to do the trick!
[11:29] <yjwong> nope, archive.ubuntu.com is not down
[11:29] <overclucker> lobosque, just delete ~/aramok/ , it won't hurt anything
[11:29] <Jordan_U> beeew: Might be a DNS problem on your end
[11:29] <beeew> yjwong, you can successfully do an apt-get?
[11:30] <yjwong> yep
[11:30] <beeew> damn you
[11:30] <beeew> !
[11:30] <yjwong> lol?
[11:30] <beeew> :P

[11:40] <Wess> Hi All, I installed Kubuntu with grub as a boot loader. It works fine. The problem is that grub.config does not exist in boot/grub/grub.config  . Any idea where itshould be or how I can change the grub config??
[11:41] <Jordan_U> Wess: /boot/grub/menu.list
[11:41] <yjwong> Wess, the Grub configuration is stored in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:42] <Vini-L> I'm having real trouble getting my mic to work
[11:42] <Wess> menu.lst does exist---  Thanks folks
[11:42] <Vini-L> I have an hda intel card
[11:43] <Vini-L> and I already had to compile the rc alsa libs and do some modprobe weirdness to get sound coming out
[11:43] <Vini-L> but I can't get the mic to work
[11:43] <beeew> mirror change it was..now it works..thanks guys..
[11:44] <stefg> !intelhda | Vini-L
[11:44] <ubotu> Vini-L: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[11:44] <Vini-L> I did that already
[11:45] <vip> Somebody configure WPA through interfaces?
[11:45] <Vini-L> stefg: That got outgoing sound working (well that and some other forum posts)
[11:45] <stefg> Vini-L: have you checked your mixer settings? Sometimes you have to select Mic-2, or unmute he input

[11:47] <ccharles> hi! pressing F1 in Ubuntu gives me the help screen. this happens for any relevant application, so i presume its a gnome setting. can I disable this? i.e. everytime I hit F1, i don't want to see *any* help ?
[11:47] <IxvY78c3R> Hello

[11:48] <stefg> !shortcuts | ccharles
[11:48] <ubotu> ccharles: 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
[11:48] <Jordan_U> Vini-L: Just to be sure, they don't have "MM" at the bottom?
[11:48] <Vini-L> Only the "Front" meter
[11:48] <ccharles> stefg: surprisingly, gnome's keyboard shortcuts don't work for stated purpose
[11:48] <Vini-L> which I turned up, and then all of the sudden skype is coming out of a speaker even though I have my headset on!
[11:49] <Spaz1331> I want to set up a tunnel (ssh or ipsec?) between my laptop PC and my desktop PC so that when I'm at college I can do whatever I want, i.e. check/send email -- the college filters just about everything.  Can I run a port 80 VPN from my desktop with ubuntu?
[11:51] <jpa_> hi
[11:51] <Spaz1331> of course my ISP probably filters ports 80 and 443 outbound, but it's worth a try, I suppose..if it's possible
[11:51] <jpa_> i am running debian is it possible to install programs without root rights into my home folder?
[11:52] <jpa_> or are there any other apps like firefox or thunderbird which work without root rights?
[11:52] <stefg> jpa_: #debian ?
[11:52] <jpa_> yes
[11:53] <Aminux> yjwong: can i send you the picture instead?
[11:53] <stefg> jpa_: this is #ubuntu, which is different from #debian... /j #debian for your question
[11:53] <jpa_> okay thx

[11:54] <krychek> hi, im trying to do modprobe -r snd_hda_intel but i get:  FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel is in use.    what should i do?
[11:54] <Jordan_U> Aminux: If you send it to me I will host it for a while so others can see it also
[11:54] <Spaz1331> so, nobody here has any idea about setting up a VPN server on ubuntu?
[11:55] <CarlDOT> All sorted :)
[11:55] <gnuskool_> Spaz1331: yes ubuntu shares the abiltiy of all unices of having good remote admin, use ssh
[11:55] <Jordan_U> Aminux: Well, put it on my Google page, not really hosting :)
[11:55] <Spaz1331> well I don't want remote admin per se.. I want to be able to tunnel from my laptop when at college because they filter just about everything useful

[11:56] <yjwong> Aminux, I don't see any problems with colors, only with the fonts
[11:56] <Jordan_U> Ornedan: Swap partition I think
[11:56] <Spaz1331> thanks stefg
[11:56] <Aminux> yjwon: what kind of problems?
[11:57] <yjwong> the fonts are quite jagged
[11:57] <Aminux> yjwon: i turned off the antialiasing
[11:57] <yjwong> as in, they are not smooth :P
[11:57] <Ornedan> Jordan_U: Was afraid of that. (Just added more sticks of memory and hibernate stopped working)
[11:57] <gnuskool_> Spaz1331: also check this http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-pptp-gui-to-connect-windows-vpn-in-ubuntu.html
[11:58] <Ornedan> Is it possible to set it to write to some other location?
[11:58] <stefg> Ornedan: you need as much swap as you've got ram
[11:58] <yjwong> yeah. no problem with colors.
[11:58] <Jordan_U> Ornedan: You could set up a swap file
[11:58] <Spaz1331> thanks gnuskool_
[11:58] <Aminux> yjwon: ok, i will try to fix the fonts
[11:59] <Ornedan> (IMO, writing hibernation file to swap is a bad idea anyway... What if used RAM + used swap > total swap at the moment of hibernation?)

[12:08] <hagabaka> i notice that ubuntu installs java libraries into /usr/share/java, but there seems to be no way to load them automatically; i have to explicitly list the .jar files in classpath, even if they're dependencies of the installed libraries. is there a solution for that?
[12:09] <KleRoi> hello, i have a small problem with grub.. i've installed windows after ubuntu and then i fixed grub with the super grub cd, but still when the pc boots and the grub menu shows, i don't have windows in there but only ubuntu... i can still boot windows using the boot partition menu in the grub cd but it's annoying to have to use it all the time!
[12:10] <ikonia> KleRoi edit your menu.lst file
[12:10] <ikonia> KleRoi: to include the windows partition
[12:10] <overclucker> KleRoi, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:10] <overclucker> yup
[12:11] <KleRoi> oh okay ikonia, how do i do that? i mean what do i have to write down?
[12:11] <ikonia> KleRoi if you look on the help.ubuntu.com website there are many examples of menu.lst files
[12:11] <ikonia> KleRoi: edit the windows one to match your partitions

[12:15] <ikonia> jaime this is an ubuntu support channel not gaming discussion, you may find it better to discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:16] <mon^rch> Nighthawk420: gutsy's X is wonky... compiz + opengl apps makes X crash. just a note
[12:16] <Jordan_U> Nighthawk420: What is the problem you were having with Feisty?

[12:23] <Txukie1982> hello
[12:23] <Extravert> How do I use a .deb file?
[12:23] <gnuskool_> CarlDOT: if a channel is working it'll have green below it, grey means muted, press m to unmute, use arow keys to increase volume
[12:23] <CarlDOT> every level seems to be at the highest gnuskool_
[12:23] <Turbo1> I am new to this system
[12:23] <Jordan_U> !deb | Extravert
[12:23] <ubotu> Extravert: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[12:24] <renzo17> CarlDOT: do you know what audio chipset you have? type "lspci -v" for info
[12:24] <Turbo1> Can i maybe find someone to help me
[12:24] <waziri> what is vm swappiness=0 ?
[12:24] <renzo17> !ask | Turbo1
[12:24] <ubotu> Turbo1: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:24] <Jordan_U> Nighthawk420: Ok, then do that then run "sudo ifconfig eth0" then "sudo dhclient eth0" ( connecting and configuring with DHCP ) then "sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx" ( installs the driver ) then "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose "fglrx" as the driver when asked
[12:25] <jaime> so I am trying to get quicktime to work in ubuntu, what codecs do i need?

[12:25] <Frogzoo_> waziri: setting swappiness=0 isn't a great idea, it disables swap
[12:25] <beginner> i somehow can't use the wget-command properly, i always get this return ERROR 404: Not found. sb got an idea?
[12:25] <overclucker> waziri, http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/07/memory-swap-management/#comment-77307
[12:26] <Turbo1> I can get any updates to be installed. I click the orange box in the corner and then it opens and when i click install nothing happens

[12:31] <Jordan_U> !anyone | amimusa
[12:31] <ubotu> amimusa: 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?

[12:32] <Frogzoo_> which is to say, the linux equivalent of picasa is.. picasa
[12:32] <amimusa> what can I install ?
[12:32] <gnuskool_> in system settings sound,  enable sound server uncheck it

[12:34] <jaime> would gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list open it in another window, like a text editor?
[12:35] <Karotte> I'm trying out compiz fusion at the moment (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion), but it sheems that the CTRL-Keys doesn't work while running compiz.. any ideas why?
[12:35] <ziroday> jaime: if you already have gedit open it will open it in a tab
[12:35] <Karotte> I can't switch desktops and nothing
[12:35] <jaime> word pimp
[12:35] <Jordan_U> Nighthawk420: I am going to sleep, but once you have done that the driver will be installed, at that point either reboot or run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" to get into X
[12:36] <beginner> is there any good ubuntu tutorial online, which can be recommended
[12:36] <ziroday> beginner: for what?
[12:36] <jaime> so I just re-edited my sources.list and now i want to install w32codecs and I know I can do it through medibuntu, does anyone know where the tutorial is?
[12:36] <beginner> in general
[12:36] <ziroday> beginner: ubuntuguide
[12:36] <beginner> thx
[12:36] <manny> didnt realise picasa has a linux port !!!
[12:36] <ikonia> jaime don't use medibuntu
[12:36] <ziroday> beginner: help.ubuntu.com
[12:36] <ikonia> jaime just install them through synaptic
[12:37] <jaime> i have adept, is and it doesn't show up on there
[12:37] <yjwong> ikonia, libdvdcss isn't shown in Synaptic due to licensing issues
[12:37] <ikonia> jaime you need to enable the correct rpo
[12:37] <ikonia> yjwong no, it doesn't but he's not aksing to install libdvdcss
[12:37] <jaime> ikonia, im new to ubuntu, english please
[12:38] <ikonia> jaime that is english, if you read the link you where sent it will walk you through it
[12:38] <yjwong> jaime, you wanted to install codecs?
[12:38] <ikonia> !restrictedformats >jamie
[12:38] <jaime> yeah, what link?

[12:38] <gnuskool_> CarlDOT: what kernel u got, if you dont know, put this in term, uname -a
[12:38] <Sp4rKy> ikonia: it's jaime not jamie :)
[12:39] <ikonia> ahhh
[12:39] <ikonia> well spotted
[12:39] <ikonia> thanks
[12:39] <Sp4rKy> np
[12:39] <jaime> i didn't even notice

[12:39] <jaime> ok ikonia i already did all that, and it still didn't show up under adept
[12:39] <ikonia> jaime that doesn't tell you to use adept
[12:39] <ikonia> so you've not read it
[12:39] <renzo17> CarlDOT: i've been doing some reading and it appears upgrading to (compiling) the latest alsa-driver should make it work
[12:39] <ikonia> that tells you the exact command you need
[12:39] <jaime> so should I get synaptic?
[12:39] <CarlDOT> gnuskool_: Linux carl-laptop 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Fri Aug 31 00:55:27 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[12:40] <bastid_raZor> beginner http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[12:40] <ikonia> jaime no - you should follow the docuemtn exactly
[12:40] <vanessa> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[12:40] <CarlDOT> sounds hard renzo17
[12:40] <renzo17> CarlDOT: it does but i promise its really not..........you want me to walk you through it?
[12:40] <CarlDOT> I'd appreciate that :)
[12:41] <CarlDOT> Thank you :)
[12:41] <renzo17> go to www.alsa-project.org and download the latest alsa-driver to your home folder
[12:41] <CarlDOT> That's the one above desktop isn't it?
[12:41] <renzo17> CarlDOT: alsa-driver-1.0.14
[12:42] <renzo17> CarlDOT: it is yeah but you can download to desktop if you like, makes no difference
[12:42] <jaime> ikonia im using kubuntu, is that going to make a difference?  Because what I'm using is adept installer and those instructions dont work
[12:42] <CarlDOT> Downloading
[12:42] <CompJunki> sup
[12:42] <CarlDOT> lil bit slow
[12:42] <CarlDOT> aaaaaaaah got it
[12:43] <renzo17> CarlDOT: did you save to home/desktop?
[12:43] <ikonia> jaime I'll say it again, those instructions do not tell you to use adept or synaptic - they tell you the exact commands to use. Its very clear your not reading it
[12:43] <CarlDOT> It's on my desktop but I can move it if it makes it easier
[12:43] <livingdaylight> i'm torn between pclos and ubuntu... i see pclos although much smaller community and backing is tops on distrowatch.... is there a good reason for this?
[12:43] <CarlDOT> That I do know how to do
[12:43] <CarlDOT> lol
[12:44] <renzo17> CarlDOT: nah thats fine, open up a terminal and run "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[12:44] <gnuskool_> OMG in 10 minutes I'll be officially late for meeting my girlfriend for lunch, just thot I'd share that...c yaz
[12:45] <CarlDOT> Done
[12:45] <renzo17> CarlDOT: now run "cd Desktop"
[12:45] <CarlDOT> Done
[12:46] <haka4> rere_cutey
[12:46] <renzo17> CarlDOT: then "tar xjf alsa-driver*"
[12:46] <stefg> livingdaylight: consider that ubuntu / kubuntu / xubuntu count as three distros on DW.... so to have correct numbers you'll have to sum that up. PCLOS is /far/ behind if you look at that
[12:46] <haka4> rere
[12:46] <CarlDOT> Done with no output, just a new command line
[12:47] <renzo17> CarlDOT: fine, now "cd alsa*"
[12:47] <frojnd> !java
[12:47] <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
[12:47] <CarlDOT> Done
[12:47] <renzo17> CarlDOT: now we are going to compile it. so your terminal will spew out loads of text but thats fine
[12:47] <CarlDOT> k
[12:47] <livingdaylight> stefg, ahhh.... good point.... is ubuntu stable though.... i've just had someone tell me it is... also that ubuntu doen't give true root priviledges
[12:48] <renzo17> CarlDOT: run " ./configure "
[12:48] <bastid_raZor> true root~!
[12:48] <renzo17> CarlDOT: let me know when it finished
[12:48] <ikonia> livingdaylight someone telling you that is ill-informed
[12:48] <CarlDOT> Done
[12:48] <Jordan_U> !sudo | livingdaylight
[12:48] <ubotu> livingdaylight: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:48] <renzo17> CarlDOT: now run " make " and wait till its finished
[12:49] <CarlDOT> You weren't kidding about the spewing of text lol
[12:49] <livingdaylight> ikonia, ahhh.. maybe just a ubuntu hater
[12:49] <renzo17> CarlDOT: lol nope
[12:49] <ikonia> livingdaylight, no just ill-informed
[12:49] <stefg> livingdaylight: 1.) stable software is an illusion :-)  2.) ubuntu has its rough edges, but the most usable day to day distro on the desktop yet (what else do you expect to hear in #ubuntu? :-o ) 3.) ubuntu uses sudo instead of a root account
[12:49] <renzo17> CarlDOT: makes you feel all geeky inside doesnt it
[12:50] <stefg> !sudo | livingdaylight
[12:50] <ubotu> livingdaylight: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:50] <CarlDOT> lol, I'm too much of a new born when it comes to this to feel anywhere near geeky mate! lol!
[12:50] <CarlDOT> Gimme a month though and I'll be on my way
[12:50] <CarlDOT> lol
[12:50] <renzo17> lol......took me a few months but i finally realised my "inner geek"
[12:51] <CarlDOT> I'm hoping to replace Vista with Ubuntu eventually, at the moment though it's just a partition
[12:51] <CarlDOT> Then I'll be truly happy
[12:51] <CarlDOT> lol
[12:51] <stefg> !enter | CarlDOT
[12:51] <ubotu> CarlDOT: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:52] <CarlDOT> sorry stefg
[12:52] <gnuskool_> why do people dislike vista?
[12:52] <CarlDOT> Old habits :(
[12:52] <CarlDOT> I just don't like windows full stop gnuskool_. It's always caused me problems.
[12:53] <CarlDOT> Done renzo17
[12:53] <renzo17> CarlDOT: realised i may have missed something in the configure step, but we'll keep going and see if this works anyway......if not, we'll try again with the correction
[12:53] <CarlDOT> ok
[12:53] <renzo17> CarlDOT: sweet, finally run " sudo make install "
[12:53] <mon^rch> vista is "too" secure
[12:53] <Jordan_U> gnuskool_: I don't like the lack of freedom
[12:53] <jaime> ok so I followed the advice here...https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats...verbatim, and xine still wont play .avi files
[12:54] <renzo17> jaime: why not use vlc, its in the repos and has all codecs built in?
[12:54] <CarlDOT> Done and I have a message saying that the channels are muted by default
[12:54] <renzo17> jaime: sudo apt-get install vlc"
[12:54] <jaime> word pimp, is it easy to use?
[12:54] <mon^rch> jaime: vlc is nice, will work and has some nice skins ;)
[12:54] <TataraKutere> hi, i have a trouble with NTFS Configuration Tool, it does not do it's job, i can't write to partitions i just formatted today with GPartEd
[12:55] <renzo17> CarlDOT: ignore that for the mo. you need to reboot, and then see if your sound works........
[12:55] <renzo17> CarlDOT: come back and let me know how it goes
[12:55] <TataraKutere> should i reinstall it?
[12:55] <jaime> mon^rch, i dont have to install codecs or anything to play .wmv or avi, it works perfect as is?
[12:55] <CarlDOT> Ah, will do. See you in 2
[12:55] <renzo17> TataraKutere: did you use " sudo apt-get instal ntfs-config "?
[12:56] <TataraKutere> not sure, i've been busy with things on the system for couple of days, maybe i installed it from synaptic.. renzo17
[12:56] <fluxdude> I don't normally run ubuntu, but I have one which has a bind dns server on it, and I don't know why in the logs I get permission denied to one of the zone files when the bind process is running as named, and the file is -rw------- 1 named named   718 2007-09-06 12:34 named.file
[12:56] <fluxdude> any ideas?
[12:56] <mon^rch> jaime: vlc plus gstreamer-good, bad, and ugly codecs (incl multiverse) ;)
[12:57] <jaime> mon^rch, just go to adept and I should find those codecs?
[12:57] <renzo17> jaime: no codecs required for vlc, all copiled into/built into the player itself
[12:58] <mon^rch> yup
[12:58] <nonickforme> Can anyone help me with getting php5-memcache package installed?
[12:58] <nonickforme> Found the package here: http://ftp.cica.es/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/php-memcache/
[12:58] <mon^rch> (I install the codecs anyway)
[12:58] <TataraKutere> renzo17: i think i had done it, tried now 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove etc...
[12:58] <jaime> wow, i wish someone would have told me that before I muffed around with xine and totem for a week of my life
[12:58] <realnewguy> hey guys ive got ubuntu fiesty, how do i upgrade to gutsy?
[12:58] <CarlDOT> Rebooting in Linux is so much quicker
[12:58] <CarlDOT> Still no sound renzo17
[12:59] <renzo17> TataraKutere: go to a terminal and run " ntfs-config " (if it complains about permissions slap a sudo in front
[12:59] <renzo17> )
[12:59] <realnewguy> anyone?
[12:59] <ikonia> realnewguy you don't
[12:59] <realnewguy> oh ok
[12:59] <stefg> fluxdude: there is #ubuntu-server , asked there, too?
[12:59] <ikonia> realnewguy: gusty is not stable

[12:59] <Jordan_U> !gksudo | renzo TataraKutere
[12:59] <ubotu> renzo TataraKutere: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[12:59] <TataraKutere> renzo17: could you write the commands for me, i'm to new to do that..:(
[12:59] <ikonia> n
[12:59] <realnewguy> ah kk, ty
[12:59] <ikonia> oops
[01:00] <TataraKutere> ok, I'll try
[01:00] <realnewguy> just having problmes with my ATi Radeon :S
[01:00] <jaime> ok so Ive been using azureus and every time i go to open it, it opens but then closes about ten seconds later, any suggestions?
[01:00] <ikonia> realnewguy thats not going to be fixed by moving to gusty
[01:00] <realnewguy> ive got a ATI Radeon X800, and it doesnt run beryl or compiz fusion or anything :S
[01:00] <Jordan_U> jaime: switch to the open source JVM
[01:00] <ikonia> jaime try launching it from a terminal command line so we can get some debugging. I suspect its a jvm issue
[01:00] <realnewguy> speaking of that, how do i set my xorg.conf back to its default settings?
[01:00] <CarlDOT> I agree with what people were saying about Vista too gnuskool_, the continual pop-ups and having to edit security settings is the biggest pain in the neck that I have experienced on Windows apart from the crashing
[01:00] <jaime> ok how do I do that?
[01:01] <Jordan_U> realnewguy: debxconfig
[01:01] <jaime> or what do i type i should say
[01:01] <ikonia> realnewguy ati cards/drivers are a real pain
[01:01] <TataraKutere> it warns as  "can't find device with uuid... etc"..:(
[01:01] <ikonia> jaime oopen a terminal and type the name of executable
[01:01] <Jordan_U> ikonia: realnewguy But they are about to get a LOT better :)
[01:01] <realnewguy> debxconfig in terminal?
[01:01] <ikonia> Jordan_U if you read the press release they are
[01:01] <realnewguy> really? how are they meant to get alot better?
[01:01] <stefg> jaime: the ubuntu package is (or was) broken. First get an update, delete your ~/.azureus -dir. If it still doesn't work uninstall the ubuntu-package and get the sourceforge installer
[01:01] <TataraKutere> renzo17: it warns as  "can't find device with uuid... etc"..:(
[01:01] <jaime> word, whats the paste bin website?
[01:01] <renzo17> Jordan_U: one week isnt it? still no aiglx (yet!!!!)
[01:02] <savvas> realnewguy: you should've kept a backup of the file, as all manuals say about backup and then tell you how to install/use beryl
[01:02] <realnewguy> oh :S
[01:02] <renzo17> TataraKutere: i have no idea what that means, sorry
[01:02] <ikonia> !pastebin >jaime
[01:02] <gnuskool_> CarlDOT: im getting a new pc that comes with it pre installed, oh well, will just have to format it clean :D
[01:02] <TataraKutere> ok, thanks
[01:02] <Jordan_U> ikonia: Or if you look at the benchmarks, or the fact that they are releasing specs ( without an NDA )
[01:02] <renzo17> CarlDOT: any luck yet?
[01:02] <nonickforme> Anyone know how I can get around\fix this? http://pastie.caboo.se/94552
[01:02] <ikonia> Jordan_U I hope your right, we'll see ;)
[01:03] <ikonia> Jordan_U ati experience leaves me wanting proof not talk
[01:03] <CarlDOT> My laptop is only a few days old, the pop-ups have already got me wanting to throw it out of the window
[01:03] <CarlDOT> No sound yet renzo17
[01:03] <jaime> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36542/
[01:03] <Jordan_U> ikonia: I have never believed ATI before
[01:03] <renzo17> nonickforme: install phpapi?
[01:03] <ikonia> Jordan_U exatly, so we'll see what comes out
[01:03] <stefg> nonickforme: does a simple 'sudo apt-get -f install' resolve the dependncy?
[01:03] <nonickforme> renzo17, ive got the dev package installed
[01:03] <Jordan_U> ikonia: I think this is different though, only time will tell
[01:04] <renzo17> Jordan_U: ikonia check phoronix, they been testing the drivers recently with pretty spectacular result
[01:04] <nonickforme> stefg, it solves it by removing this package.
[01:04] <gnuskool_> CarlDOT: follow the instructions here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449&highlight=riptide
[01:04] <CarlDOT> I have been back into alsamixer in terminal and made sure that the options available are unmuted
[01:04] <CarlDOT> ok
[01:04] <CarlDOT> Thank you :)
[01:05] <stefg> nonickforme: i see... so you got to track down phpapi-20060613+lfs and install that first
[01:05] <nonickforme> hrm ok
[01:05] <renzo17> CarlDOT: have you checked alsamixer again make sure they arent muted?
[01:05] <CarlDOT> yes renzo17
[01:05] <renzo17> CarlDOT: missed last post sorry, you want to try it the way i should have explained earlier
[01:05] <renzo17> ?
[01:05] <nonickforme> It calls it a virtual package http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/virtual/phpapi-20060613+lfs
[01:06] <CarlDOT> okay, lol
[01:06] <renzo17> CarlDOT: open a terminal and run " cd Desktop/alsa* "
[01:07] <CarlDOT> Done
[01:07] <nonickforme> stefg, its a "virtual package", i do have all 3 things it provides installed.
[01:07] <ulive> Hi :) I need some help with the Ubuntu Live CD version 7.10 Tribe 5
[01:07] <renzo17> CarlDOT: then run " ./configure --with-cards=hda-intel --with-sequencer=yes "
[01:07] <savvas> ulive: try #ubuntu+1 :)
[01:07] <ulive> tnx
[01:07] <jaime> ikonia, did you see the pastebin thing
[01:08] <stefg> nonickforme: yeah, reading about it as i type.... clever new concept of which i do not have any clue yet :-\
[01:08] <CarlDOT> Done
[01:08] <cornell_work> Having some difficulty getting feisty fawn installed on a Dell GX260.  First try with Livecd went ok, but the machine wouldn't boot after a short while.  Tried again, kept failing partitioning harddrive.  Tried alternate i386 disk, install went well, but won't boot from drive.  Did  observe machine reporting low battery (CMOS, I assume, it's a desktop) and having no configuration, and having to search for IDE configuration.
[01:08] <nonickforme> Is there any way to just remove the dependancy on it? The packages binaries should still work.
[01:08] <renzo17> now do "make" and then "sudo make install" again..........when all thats finished reboot and let me know if you have sound
[01:08] <CarlDOT> will do, thank you :)
[01:09] <Orthenner>  
[01:09] <Orthenner>  
[01:09] <cornell_work> I'm assuming that this is not so much an ubuntu problem, but a hardware problem.  Can anyone confirm that it works well on a Dell GX260?
[01:10] <Orthenner> ctulhu eat my brain
[01:10] <Nighthawk420> hey everyone IM ON UBUNTU NOW!!!!!!!!!
[01:10] <Nighthawk420> thank yall so much
[01:10] <renzo17> Nighthawk420: congrats, happy ubunting
[01:10] <savvas> Nighthawk420: welcome on board
[01:10] <stefg> cornell_work: Define 'failed to boot'. if the bios keeps loosing settings (most notably the LBA setting for the hd) any OS would have trouble finding its boot files
[01:10] <Nighthawk420> tyty il be back tonight i need help settin stuff up i gotta go to school blahhh
[01:10] <Nighthawk420> peace
[01:10] <cornell_work> Cool Nighthawk420
[01:10] <Orthenner> savvas - do you love ctulhu???
[01:10] <SoulChild> Hey all, when i shutdown my notebook i get a bunch off messages from NetworkManager, is there a way to deactivate ?
[01:11] <cornell_work> stefg: restart, blank screen, nada
[01:11] <savvas> Orthenner: ?
[01:11] <stefg> cornell_work: so it's obviously the bios, which doesn't even perform a POST
[01:12] <Orthenner> savvas oh sorry! Greatest Ctulhu
[01:12] <savvas> Orthenner: njet panjimaem rskir :)
[01:12] <manny> how do you do web albums in picasa2... i only see blogger option
[01:13] <Orthenner> ????? what????
[01:13] <savvas> Orthenner: #ubuntu-ru
[01:13] <cornell_work> So this does sound like hardware, stefg, (Don't know about the POST, there are times when monitors don't wake up in time to display that) ?   Any chance a fresh battery would help?  Or does this sound like a dead BIOS?
[01:13] <Orthenner> savvas - i don't understand you
[01:13] <savvas> Orthenner: same here :)
[01:13] <Orthenner> savvas - i am not russian
[01:13] <nonickforme> stefg, heh, dpkg --force-all
[01:14] <kogler> Hi, I'm adjusting the resolution for my tty consoles... but I keep getting errors on bootup. I can't remember exactly the wording, but it was some thing about the number I gave with "vga=789" being invalid.
[01:14] <savvas> Orthenner: your ip is :) and by the way, it's not a good idea to be root and irc
[01:14] <kogler> Anyone else had such an issue?
[01:14] <cornell_work> Orthenner, your message at 0710 was in Russian, or something that looked like it
[01:15] <CarlDOT> Still no sound renzo17
[01:15] <nooga> mm
[01:15] <ulive> savvas: It seems quite dead in +1 .. perhaps the answer lies here.. do you know if you can open the CDrom drive on the LIVE cd?
[01:15] <nooga> is it really not possible to dist-upgrade from 6.06 to 7.04?
[01:15] <Orthenner> Cornell work - oooops!!!
[01:15] <stefg> cornell_work: (POST == power on self test). The messages about installed memory, detected IDE drives and stuff, which come up even before grub... I can't tell if the bios is broken, or just needs a fresh battery (even the mobo itself can be bad). See if you can finf hardware info on the web
[01:16] <renzo17> CarlDOT: ok open a terminal and run " modprobe snd-hda-intel " (put a sudo infront if it complains about permissions)
[01:16] <savvas> ulive: probably you can, the live cd is loaded as much as possible in memory. but if you try and run something that will need to load something from the cd, then probably it'll be broken :)
[01:17] <batags> how can i change background colors ?
[01:17] <Hatapka> IRC client Xchat, pls setting http proxy???
[01:17] <ulive> savvas: I just got an answer.. it seems you can't... but tnx for the answer :)

[01:19] <renzo17> thats fine then, now try all the following too " modprobe snd-pcm-oss "    " modprobe snd-mixer-oss "    " modprobe snd-seq-oss " then run alsamixer, check everything is unmuted and test your sound

[01:24] <CarlDOT> Thanks for trying, does seem strange that it'll work with the Live CD but not the full install....I'll try and work through that thread, the more I do in Linux the more I like it.
[01:24] <renzo17> goodluck
[01:24] <DuClare> glick, I'm quite sure it's none of what you mentioned
[01:24] <DuClare> glick, try ethtool
[01:24] <stefg> kogler: you need information which vesa-modes your bios accepts. if you pass an invalid number, you'll get an error. so carefully step up reso and color depth to see what is supported, and what not
[01:25] <savvas> nooga: there are several packages that are not supported anymore, so it's better to upgrade using the "alternate" version: http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/

[01:26] <cornell_work> Thanks stefg, what I meant was that the POST is sometimes offered before the monitor's ready to display, so I don't always see one.  The time that the low battery message came out was when the POST should've been displayed, never seen that one before.  But thanks again, I wanted a reality check before I went too far.  I'm surprised that there's a hardware problem, it's surplused from my company and three years old, as opposed to used unt

[02:03] <elfgoh> dystopianray: then when is it coming?
[02:03] <stefg> steel_lady: yeah... gparted is of very limited use with ntfs... so rather use some windows-tool to deal with windows partitions
[02:03] <dystopianray> elfgoh: there won't be another alpha, beta is the next release
[02:04] <steel_lady> stefg, I can not use win program since I can not enter windows any more
[02:04] <kitche> brownie17, well you couldn't have since 0.5.2 is the newest version
[02:04] <stefg> steel_lady: check in tehe user-admin applet if you belong to right groups ... fuse, admin or whatever is necessary
[02:04] <elfgoh> dystopianray: ic.. so the release schedule is nt updated.
[02:04] <brownie17> kitche, if so, i can't find it. sorry if i'm being a complete retard here.

[02:06] <steel_lady> stefg, luckily I didn't have so many important things, just one
[02:06] <nbkr> giggety, sudo apt-get --purge remove mysql-server
[02:06] <omagreb> i just installed ubuntu 7.04 on an older dell with an embeded i810 video chipset

[02:06] <omagreb> all is well but i get a black "band" across the middle of the screen
[02:07] <ikonia> oops
[02:07] <steel_lady> but stefg, I had a friend who died who did resizing in dapper without the problem and I think it was with gparted
[02:07] <brownie17> kitche, before i install 0.5.2 from source do i need to uninstall 0.4.2?
[02:07] <__ele__> jrib: ok! I will change it...be back in a minute
[02:07] <nbkr> gustavo, maybe amavis has another config file?

[02:08] <TheZanke> I have Ubuntu Linux with VMware Server, I am on a Vitrual XP Pro and have VMware tools installed.... How do I drag and drop items from Ubuntu to XP?
[02:08] <TheZanke> i have seen it done
[02:08] <stefg> steel_lady: gParted sometimes works, sometimes not. that depends on several factors, but I've come to the conclusion that gparted is so slow and unreliable that i prefer not to trust it
[02:08] <Dark_Rain> stefg, i agree with yoy
[02:08] <Dark_Rain> you
[02:09] <Dark_Rain> usualy ... is not such a good ideea to resize a partition
[02:09] <idefixs> omagreb: have you verified that the monitor itself is ok?
[02:09] <dystopianray> TheZanke: I don't think it's possible with linux
[02:10] <TheZanke> dystopianray, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3XyXl0I3Wg that guy has my EXACT setup and he does it... but i dont know if he is using VMware Server, Workstation, or Player
[02:10] <steel_lady> stefg, that is strange for me, I thought that for those sensitive issues linux is always more realible. Since this issue is so important, I don't know why they didn't put priority for this kind of program...
[02:10] <idefixs> TheZanke: there is a way to create a "shared folder" for host and guest. however i cant remember th how
[02:10] <dystopianray> TheZanke: probably workstation
[02:11] <gholen> Frogzoo_, Got it working :) Thanks for the helt :)
[02:11] <kitche> TheZanke, that feature is only in vmware workstation
[02:11] <dystopianray> TheZanke: vmware server isn't intended for regular desktop usage and has no need for drag and drop or other nonsense
[02:11] <gholen> *help
[02:11] <__ele__> jrib: Hmm: it seems that by clicking as normal user on that .desktop file it can't find the java path
[02:11] <jrib> __ele__: what's the exact error?
[02:11] <__ele__> jrib: java not found
[02:12] <m4st3r> hi all.
[02:12] <jrib> __ele__: how did you install java?
[02:12] <stefg> steel_lady: as long as you deal with native linux things, gparted works. the problem is ntfs and the fact that it is proprietary. MS won't tell the specs, so everything in Linux about ntfs is reverse-engineerd.
[02:12] <m4st3r> I installed compiz-fusion on kubuntu 7.04 but I cant see window name line....
[02:12] <m4st3r> How can i solve it?

[02:13] <m4st3r> jrib: thanks

[02:13] <dystopianray> __ele__: why not install the jre through apt?
[02:13] <elfgoh> dystopianray: anyway, y the change in schedule

[02:13] <Solaris444> excuse me guys, but am I able to ship ubuntu to my customers?
[02:13] <dystopianray> __ele__: this has been possible for as long as I can remmeber

[02:14] <Dark_Rain> yes you can say that Ubuntu is GPL
[02:14] <echelon-3> hey
[02:14] <echelon-3> hwo do i SSH into my uni with ubuntu
[02:14] <Dark_Rain> windows is not
[02:15] <dystopianray> there are trademark issues though
[02:15] <Solaris444> Dark_Rain: I mean can ubuntu come pre-installed on a machine i build and am going to be paid for.
[02:15] <stefg> steel_lady: just type 'dmesg | less' in a console and read the babble ... you don't need to understand everything, but if the kernel really complains, you'll recognize
[02:15] <Dark_Rain> echelon-3, ssh localhost -l username
[02:15] <Ben_Cs> my ipod mounts automatically.   i can eject it only with "sudo eject". how can i eject it without "sudo"?
[02:15] <Dark_Rain> or
[02:15] <jrib> echelon-3: ssh user@host  in the terminal
[02:15] <Dark_Rain> ssh ipaddress -l username
[02:15] <echelon-3> what about password
[02:15] <dystopianray> echelon-3: ssh uniuser@uniserver
[02:15] <jrib> echelon-3: you will be prompted
[02:15] <Dark_Rain> it will prompt for one
[02:15] <echelon-3> ok
[02:15] <ootm> I want to see if my ubuntu server has been powered off without being shutdown. What's the best way to check that? or whats the best indicator in the system logs to show a clean shutdown?
[02:16] <ticked> mornin all, no newbie questions today, just lurking to see what i can learn
[02:16] <Dark_Rain> last
[02:16] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: you only need to umount it then you can disconnect it
[02:16] <Dark_Rain> ootm, last is the command
[02:16] <ootm> Dark_Rain, thanks
[02:17] <Solaris444> dystopianray: care to enlighten me?
[02:17] <echelon-3> whats this RSA key host BS
[02:17] <__ele__> jrib: if i install java just as the bin, do i have to set the path somewehere else too, then only in the .bashrc's?
[02:17] <echelon-3> when i try to SSH in it says host key verification failed
[02:18] <XenThraL> hi, having trouble building wxSQlite3, ./configure just gives me: "configure: error: cannot run /bin/bash build/config.sub" anyone know how I can fix this?
[02:18] <dystopianray> Solaris444: i am not a lawyer, i'd recomend contacting canonical about it
[02:18] <steel_lady> stefg, http://pastebin.com/m7b7a0cd4
[02:18] <Solaris444> ok thanks
[02:18] <Dark_Rain> echelon-3,
[02:18] <nbkr> echelon-3, Host keys are used to identify a host. To make sure you're connection to the correct one.
[02:18] <echelon-3> ok
[02:18] <stefg> steel_lady: your filesystem is toast
[02:18] <echelon-3> so how do i make it not care
[02:18] <gordonjcp> Solaris444: yes, it can
[02:18] <arjayc> Solaris444: There is also http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/licensing to look at
[02:18] <jrib> __ele__: I'd recommend using the packaged version since security updates are then taken care of for you.  But, yes, you would need to set the path in your GNOME environment in a file like ~/.xprofile or just use the full path to the java executable in your script
[02:19] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: but when i "umount" it the busy light indicator is on. if i "eject" it, only then it's off
[02:19] <nbkr> echelon-3, There is no way to make it not care. Host Key Verfication is an important part of SSH security.
[02:19] <steel_lady> stefg, it does this for every of my 4 SDs. what can I do?
[02:19] <dystopianray> Solaris444: http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/trademarkpolicy
[02:19] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: the light indicates that data is being transferred?
[02:19] <nbkr> echelon-3, But you can delete the approriate value in ~/.ssh/know_hosts. Than you will be asked again if you trust that host.
[02:19] <__ele__> jrib: yea i will do install the packages...just wanted to know how to deal with bin files anyway:) thx for your help!!
[02:20] <jrib> __ele__: np
[02:20] <Dark_Rain> echelon-3, in you home directory you will find .ssh/known_hosts
[02:20] <dystopianray> Solaris444: looks like you'll need a trademark license
[02:20] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: yes.
[02:20] <renzo17> hi all, i have Fesity set up as a primary domain controller for a small XP Pro based network. if i was to have to reinstall and set it up again can i use it with the accounts on the windows pc that i already have setup to use the pdc without it creating a new local account on the client machines? i ask because we had a massive HD failure a while ago, and i replaced fedora with fesity, set it...
[02:20] <renzo17> ...up with the same settings, but when people went to log back in on their xp machines, it created a new local account for them........is this avoidable?
[02:20] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: data is being transferred after you unmount it?
[02:20] <Dark_Rain> open it with a text editor and remove that line that contain the host you are trying to connect
[02:20] <Solaris444> ah i see
[02:20] <jrib> echelon-3: 'man sshconfig'  will have an option somewhere that will "make it not care"
[02:20] <stefg> steel_lady: hmmm... do you have another system where you can verify if the SDs are really broken? Can be a read problem, so the kernel only thinks the filesystem is corrupt
[02:20] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: it's what the light says
[02:20] <ticked> wait, i do have a newbie question, anyone know where i can get a list of terminal commands?
[02:21] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: what is transferring data to it?
[02:21] <Dark_Rain> and then try to connect again with ssh
[02:21] <Pici> !terminal | ticked
[02:21] <ubotu> ticked: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[02:21] <jrib> echelon-3: oops, that should be 'man ssh_config'
[02:21] <dystopianray> ticked: ls /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin
[02:21] <steel_lady> stefg, I am using them normally on my PDA
[02:21] <XenThraL> anyone can give me a hand at all?
[02:21] <Dark_Rain> XenThraL,
[02:21] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: don't know (the thing is in WinXP the light blinks for a sec. and then stops, so it's safe to remove. in ubuntu it blinks all the time till "eject")
[02:22] <Dark_Rain> what is the problem
[02:22] <Dark_Rain> :)
[02:22] <XenThraL> ->hi, having trouble building wxSQlite3, ./configure just gives me: "configure: error: cannot run /bin/bash build/config.sub" anyone know how I can fix this?
[02:22] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: as long as it's unmounted it's safe to remove
[02:22] <XenThraL> :)
[02:22] <steel_lady> stefg, I had a lot of experience of problems with SD cards on ubuntu
[02:22] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: you sure?
[02:22] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: yes
[02:22] <echelon-3> dude
[02:22] <echelon-3> there is too much there
[02:22] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: ok thanks
[02:22] <echelon-3> doesnt anyone know ?
[02:23] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: the device is designed with windows in mind, and is deceptive when used with a different system
[02:23] <Dark_Rain> seems like your config.sub is missing
[02:23] <XenThraL> it isn't
[02:23] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: becuase windows has no concept of mounting or unmounting
[02:23] <Pici> echelon-3: Were you asked a yes or no question when you tried to ssh out?
[02:23] <Dark_Rain> echelon-3, you cand safly remove that file
[02:23] <XenThraL> tried changing it to executable
[02:23] <XenThraL> but that didn't do any good
[02:23] <stefg> steel_lady: your pda maybe happy with a broken fat filesystem and happily write on it until the inevitable happens. backup the data if you can and reformat the cards with ubuntu., or try a fsck on them (unmount them before)
[02:23] <nbkr> echelon-3, To get back to your system via ssh, just delete the appropriate value in ~/.ssh/known_hosts - than you will be asked again.
[02:23] <nbkr> echelon-3, the errormessage should tell you which line to delete.
[02:24] <Pici> nbkr: He isnt trying to ssh into his own system.
[02:24] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: but for some reason the "eject" script does the unmounting in the "windows" way :)
[02:24] <Dark_Rain> Pici,  i saw that
[02:24] <echelon-3> ok
[02:24] <ticked> thanks Pici and dystopianray
[02:24] <Dark_Rain> and is ok for any host
[02:24] <XenThraL> Dark_Rain: could you perhaps then try to build it, see if you encounter the same issue?
[02:24] <savvas> Ben_Cs: yes, eject saves all the pre-cached stuff and then removes the icon from the desktop, and then you can remove it safely
[02:25] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: it doesn't unmount, it ejects
[02:25] <IdleOne> XenThraL: you have build-essential installed
[02:25] <IdleOne> ?
[02:25] <XenThraL> yes
[02:25] <nbkr> Pici, Yes, not to localhost. But I assume that it is his/her system he/she is sshing to.
[02:25] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: but ejection has umount as a part of it i guess
[02:25] <nbkr> Pici, just another maschine :-)
[02:25] <Pici> nbkr: s/he said that it was their university's server that they were trying to ssh into.
[02:26] <nbkr> Pici, oh - ok, I missed that line. Sorry.
[02:26] <realnewguy> hey sorry if this offtopic but is gnome-look.org website down atm? i cant access it
[02:26] <Pici> nbkr: No need to be sorry, just fyi-ing
[02:26] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: well whatever script your using may be calling unmount before calling eject, but umount and eject are two different things
[02:26] <anandanb1> realnewguy: its working fine for me
[02:27] <nbkr> realnewguy, gnome-look.org is working form my side.
[02:27] <XenThraL> hum, seems like I can build an older version of the package, 1.6, just fine
[02:27] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: i see. ok, thanks
[02:27] <XenThraL> problem is in this new configure script I suppose
[02:27] <IdleOne> !eyecandy > realnewguy check out the msg from ubotu
[02:27] <IdleOne> gnome-look works here also
[02:27] <realnewguy> cool ty
[02:27] <realnewguy> must be me for some reason then :S
[02:28] <anandanb1> realnewguy: try to refresh the page
[02:28] <realnewguy> ok
[02:28] <omagreb> hello need help with ubuntu
[02:28] <realnewguy> nothing :S
[02:28] <brownie17> !ask | omagreb
[02:28] <ubotu> omagreb: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:29] <taime1> i have disabled my startup programs in the sessions manager, but they keep starting up, what gives?
[02:29] <IdleOne> omagreb: anything specific or you need help with the entire OS?
[02:29] <realnewguy> strange i can view other sites np's but just gnome look?
[02:29] <brownie17> realnewguy, magic
[02:29] <realnewguy> sorry magic?
[02:29] <omagreb> i just installed ubuntu 7.04 and i get a black band across the screen
[02:29] <omagreb> the video chipset is an i810e
[02:29] <savvas> realnewguy: try holding shift and press the reload button
[02:30] <dystopianray> omagreb: what if you use the vesa driver?
[02:30] <realnewguy> still nothing :S
[02:30] <omagreb> yeah i probally could do that but I have used releases prior to 7.04 and did not have this problem
[02:31] <Shay_cyber5482> hi all plz need some help here .. i am trying to install the ubuntu 7.04 server edition . my computer have 8 giga of ram but the installion got stuck , when i am using just 2g ram it working ok ?
[02:31] <IdleOne> realnewguy: you using any popup blockers or anything else that might be blocking that site only?
[02:31] <realnewguy> ive got adblock and noscript installed
[02:31] <IdleOne> realnewguy: disable adblock and try reloading
[02:31] <savvas> realnewguy: www.gnome-look.org ?
[02:31] <ybite> tha
[02:31] <realnewguy> yup
[02:31] <ybite> huy
[02:32] <dystopianray> Shay_cyber5482:  are you installing 32-bit ore 64-bit ubuntu?
[02:32] <mon^rch> 8 gigs of ram O_o
[02:32] <nbkr> Shay_cyber5482, If you have more than 4GB Ram you have to use the 64 Bit version.
[02:32] <omagreb> it is almost as if 1/4 of the screen is blank
[02:32] <brownie17> what is the command to uninstall something you installed from source?
[02:32] <brownie17> is it make uninstall?
[02:32] <savvas> realnewguy: check the domain again, maybe you mistyped it :)
[02:32] <ybite> nothing
[02:32] <anandanb1> Shay_cyber5482: install with 2gb RAM and then add after you install
[02:32] <Shay_cyber5482> 64 bit
[02:32] <realnewguy> disabled adblock, still not working :S
[02:32] <IdleOne> realnewguy: now disable noscript and give it a shot
[02:33] <realnewguy> kk
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> brownie17,
[02:33] <nbkr> brownie17, there is no general way to uninstall something you installed from source.
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> apt-get remove pkg-name
[02:33] <brownie17> nbkr, yeah, i figured that.
[02:33] <Shay_cyber5482> dystopianray i am trying to install the 64 bit version
[02:33] <brownie17> Dark_Rain, from source apt-get will still work?
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> ohh sorry
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> :)
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> my mistake
[02:33] <taime1> why would my disabled startup programs Continue To Start Up?
[02:33] <brownie17> Dark_Rain, it's cool.
[02:33] <realnewguy> still not working :S
[02:33] <realnewguy> weird!
[02:33] <nbkr> brownie17, If the developer managed to add a "uninstall" target in the makefile, it could work that way. But most of the makefiles don't have that.
[02:33] <IdleOne> realnewguy: you must have some addon that is blocking that site disable all or one at a time until you figure out wich one
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> in general make remove or make uninstall  should work
[02:34] <brownie17> nbkr, something needs to be done about that.
[02:34] <realnewguy> ok
[02:34] <nbkr> Ok - most of the make files I have seen didn't have that :-)
[02:34] <IdleOne> realnewguy: have you been playing with iptables/firestarter?
[02:34] <anandanb1> Shay_cyber5482: If you have no problem in installing with 2GB of RAM you can do that first and add the other 6GB later
[02:35] <realnewguy> nope
[02:35] <realnewguy> havent touched iptables, or even installed firestarter
[02:35] <nbkr> brownie17, You can use "checkinstall"  instead of "make install". Checkinstall is a small script that will create a .deb file.
[02:35] <IdleOne> realnewguy: port forwarding / blocking?
[02:35] <nbkr> You can install and uninstall that.
[02:35] <omagreb> has anyone had problems with the i810e video chipset using ubuntu 7.04
[02:35] <realnewguy> i can view other sites no problem, but just gnome look i cant access anymore
[02:35] <brownie17> nbkr, o rly? and that will work with any source?
[02:35] <realnewguy> ive got portforwarding for gtk-gnutella network
[02:35] <jrib> !checkinstall > brownie17 (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:36] <nbkr> !checkinstall > nbkr
[02:36] <brownie17> jrib, nbkr that is so cool
[02:36] <IdleOne> realnewguy: wouldnt affect it. possible you got banned from the site?
[02:36] <realnewguy> ive only ever dl a package or two from gnome-look, id be very suprised if theyd banned me :S
[02:37] <realnewguy> ive never entered the forums on that site(if they have a forum)
[02:37] <Lacrymology> can someone help me set up my ubuntu so's I can write in japanese without it changing the locale in half my programs?
[02:37] <brownie17> guys, i just spent two hours compiling gtkpod from source, and all the tiny little support packages it needs, and then i got this error which i don't know how to fix, "gtkpod: error while loading shared libraries: libgpod.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[02:37] <doktoreas> hi to all
[02:38] <giggsey> How do I force dapper to remove mysql-server?
[02:38] <doktoreas> got a trouble with my laptop..as i start ubuntu, the fan stays always on
[02:38] <doktoreas> nver stops
[02:38] <giggsey> It's still got some files on there
[02:38] <doktoreas> *never
[02:38] <fannagoganna> hi, is there an installation CD of Ubuntu 7.04 that allows one to keep his LVM partitions and data, such as what happened with Ubuntu 6.06?
[02:38] <dyrne> brownie17: never had an issue with the gtkpod in repos up to ipod version 5.5 gen
[02:38] <IdleOne> realnewguy: no other addons?
[02:38] <fannagoganna> Even the alternate Ubuntu 7.04 CD only allows me to delete previously existing LVM partitions
[02:38] <realnewguy> apart from gmail nope
[02:38] <realnewguy> gmail extension i mean
[02:39] <brownie17> dyrne, it doesn't support video playlists, it cannot tag videos as Tv shows, and it deleted all my audio playlists everytime i open it. according to the changelog all of these problems have been solved in the newer version
[02:39] <IdleOne> realnewguy: I dont think that would have anything to do with it but disable and see
[02:39] <realnewguy> ok
[02:39] <Zweistein> Hello, I've upgraded to Feisty Fawn and sleeping on my laptop (by using fn+suspend) no longer works. However, using uswsusp s2ram --force works. How do I change the mechanism that is triggered by the Suspend key to s2ram --force?
[02:40] <omagreb> need help with i810
[02:40] <Aminux> how do i install more fonts in Ubuntu?
[02:40] <realnewguy> still not working :S
[02:40] <IdleOne> !fonts | Aminux
[02:40] <ubotu> Aminux: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[02:40] <Lacrymology> !japanese | Lacrymology
[02:40] <Aminux> thankios
[02:40] <echelon-3> hy
[02:40] <echelon-3> hey
[02:40] <IdleOne> realnewguy: sorry I dont know what else it could be
[02:40] <Lacrymology> damn, I thought that'd work
[02:40] <echelon-3> ive SSH'd into my uni
[02:40] <echelon-3> how do i copy files from my uni onto my own HDD
[02:41] <Dark_Rain> scp
[02:41] <Dark_Rain> if you have linux
[02:41] <realnewguy> ok ty anyway
[02:41] <taime1> why would my disabled startup programs Continue To Start Up?
[02:41] <echelon-3> ubuntu i have
[02:41] <Dark_Rain> scp then
[02:41] <echelon-3> can you give me a simple command that will work
[02:41] <echelon-3> to xfer all files in a dirctory from my uni onto my HDD
[02:41] <DuClare> echelon-3, assuming you can ssh to your uni, scp username@uni:/path /local/path/
[02:42] <omagreb> this is pointless
[02:42] <IdleOne> realnewguy: hang around and try asking now and then someone will be able to figure it out
[02:42] <jrib> echelon-3: you can use sftp or scp on the command line or just go to file -> connect to server in nautilus (the file manager) and use the gui
[02:42] <DuClare> echelon-3, to copy directories recursively, use the -r flag
[02:42] <Dark_Rain> DuClare,  you are fasst
[02:42] <Dark_Rain> :P
[02:42] <echelon-3> i dont get it
[02:42] <DuClare> Dark_Rain, I'm not. :\
[02:42] <echelon-3> ok i am in the directory right now i want to copy all the contents
[02:42] <echelon-3> onto some folder on my current HDD
[02:43] <Dark_Rain> scp * username@yourcomputer:/path/to/copy
[02:43] <nbkr> echelon-3, You don't need ssh connection open for coping files. Just go to "places-> connect to server" on your Gnome Desktop.
[02:43] <Dark_Rain> or like nbkr
[02:43] <Dark_Rain> :D
[02:43] <echelon-3> default port for this
[02:43] <Dark_Rain> i'm more of command line freak
[02:43] <echelon-3> nkbr ?
[02:44] <Dark_Rain> 22
[02:44] <DuClare> of course there are some apps that bring sftp to gui. eg. with konqueror you can enter sftp://host:port/path
[02:44] <echelon-3> uh
[02:44] <Aminux> What does this mean?  " Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed."
[02:44] <nbkr> echelon-3, nbkr is my nickname - not an application or something :-)
[02:44] <echelon-3> i did it and nothing happened?
[02:44] <DJ-_-> Hi, I am installing ubuntu-server-7.04. I have installed it earlier on this machine too, but this time the install is stuck on "Select and Install Software" on 85%, I have tried a couple of times now but have not been successful, I also verified the integrity of the cd which shows that the cd is valid. Any ideas?
[02:44] <DuClare> echelon-3, what did you do exactly?
[02:44] <jrib> Aminux: what did you do to get that?
[02:44] <echelon-3> click connect
[02:45] <Aminux> i did this gksu nautilus /usr/share/fonts/truetype
[02:45] <echelon-3> it just closes the APP
[02:45] <echelon-3> gg
[02:45] <echelon-3> i dont even know what the yourcomputer is suppose to be
[02:45] <jrib> Aminux: nautilus should have still opened up?
[02:46] <DuClare> echelon-3, are you at the uni or home right now?
[02:46] <echelon-3> home
[02:46] <nbkr> echelon-3, You're using gnome? Have a look at the desktop there should be a shared folder now.
[02:46] <Aminux> jrib: yes,but i cant write anything inside
[02:46] <jrib> Aminux: write anything inside where?
[02:46] <echelon-3> ah yepo
[02:47] <DuClare> echelon-3, then open a local terminal (don't ssh to uni), enter the directory (using cd) where you want the files, then run `scp -r username@unihost:/path_at_uni ./`. It'll ask for your password just like it does with ssh
[02:47] <Aminux> i meant copy anything inside /usr/share/fonts/truetype
[02:47] <DuClare> and then will copy
[02:47] <DuClare> to whichever path you CD'd to.
[02:47] <jrib> Aminux: what are you trying to accomplish?
[02:48] <rm130> renzo17, hello?
[02:48] <Aminux> im trying to install a couple of new fonts
[02:48] <jrib> !fonts > Aminux (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:48] <renzo17> rm130: hi
[02:48] <rm130> I'm the guy from yesterday
[02:48] <rm130> trying to get 3d working
[02:48] <rm130> do you remember?
[02:48] <jrib> Aminux: you can use ~/.fonts as your user
[02:48] <renzo17> of course, any luck?
[02:48] <DigeratiX> does edubuntu come with any porn filtering software?
[02:48] <taime1> why would my disabled startup programs Continue To Start Up in gnome?
[02:48] <rm130> well I haven't gotten the chance until now after I left yesterday
[02:48] <skoenman> does anbody know what the max space is that a NAS can handle?????
[02:49] <Aminux> jrib: thats exactly where im getting my directions from
[02:49] <rm130> on synaptic I installed unichrome
[02:49] <faileas> skoenman: more than you can put on a system ;)
[02:49] <renzo17> DigeratiX: not sure but i beleaive ubuntu christian edition does, dans guardian or something
[02:49] <rm130> but that removed the xserver-xorg-video-via
[02:49] <jrib> Aminux: is there a reason you are not just using ~/.fonts?
[02:49] <DigeratiX> k
[02:49] <IdleOne> taime1: how did you disable them?
[02:49] <skoenman> faileas so you say more than 10TB
[02:49] <renzo17> rm130: what removed it?
[02:49] <taime1> IdleOne: sessions manager
[02:49] <Pici> DigeratiX: I'm not sure. #edubuntu may provide the answer for you.
[02:49] <DigeratiX> ok
[02:49] <rm130> synaptic, after I installed xserver-xorg-video-unichrome
[02:50] <faileas> skoenman: probably. a NAS is little more than a special purpose system
[02:50] <skoenman> yeah well
[02:50] <renzo17> rm130: and have you tested to see if 3d is working?
[02:50] <skoenman> faileas we do cctv systems and we have worked out for 44 cameras to record 30 days we nee about 10TB
[02:51] <Aminux> jrib: i have to say that im not yet familiar with linux,so i dont know what ~/.fonts means
[02:51] <rm130> not yet, I also forgot how to add that 1 line into my xorg file
[02:51] <echelon-3> hy
[02:51] <echelon-3> hey
[02:51] <echelon-3> in ubuntu
[02:51] <faileas> if your file systems can handle it, and you have enough network IO, you shouldn't have an issue
[02:51] <Pici> !enter
[02:51] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:51] <echelon-3> how can i see how much bandwidth i am using
[02:51] <echelon-3> lol :)
[02:51] <beginner> is there any difference between the desktop and the server version, besides the gui?
[02:51] <skoenman> faileas what filesystem do you suggest???
[02:51] <faileas> skoenman: it will be a hardware bottleneck, not a software bottlenext
[02:51] <faileas> *neck
[02:51] <faileas> erm
[02:51] <skoenman> faileas i use ext3
[02:51] <renzo17> rm130: i cant even remember what the line was. can you?
[02:51] <skoenman> k
[02:51] <faileas> ext3 would work
[02:52] <skoenman> cool thanks
[02:52] <renzo17> option vbe true or something?
[02:52] <jrib> Aminux: ah, ~ just means /home/YOUR_USERNAME .  .fonts will be hidden by default so, as your user (not root/sudo) open nautilus and go to view -> show hidden files.  If .fonts does not yet exist, create it and then just copy your fonts in there
[02:52] <nbkr> echelon-3, there is the console command iftop - or you could use the system monitor panel applet.
[02:52] <rm130> renzo17, no but I remember that it went under: Section "Device"
[02:52] <faileas> skoenman: you will probably need to worry about network bottlenecks, and hard drive bottlenecks though
[02:53] <IdleOne> taime1: I am guessing that the changes you are making in Sessions Manager are not being saved but I dont know how to make it so it saves them
[02:53] <skoenman> faileas were most probably gonna put in gigabit switches so that should sort it
[02:53] <taime1> crummy
[02:53] <faileas> skoenman: and hard drives on raid, i suspect
[02:53] <skoenman> faileas yes raid 0
[02:53] <IdleOne> taime1: find out where that data is saved and see if you cant edit the config file
[02:54] <faileas> yeah, should not be an issue then ;)
[02:54] <skoenman> faileas why???
[02:54] <Aminux> jrib: it just says permission denied
[02:54] <jrib> Aminux: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[02:54] <renzo17> ok i got it, rm130 , i'll port the instructions in a paste bin
[02:54] <renzo17> !paste
[02:54] <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)
[02:55] <faileas> skoenman: why not? if hardware can handle it the san should handle it ;p
[02:55] <rm130> renzo17, thanks a lot
[02:55] <skoenman> faileas ok cool
[02:55] <Shay_cyber5482> hi can someone tell me shortly about the software "sun grid" ? (what is the purpose of the software etc..)
[02:55] <Shay_cyber5482> sun grid engine
[02:55] <skoenman> here comes a 20drive pc ....LOL
[02:55] <hendrixski> umm, this morning my laptop just stopped working off of battery.  The battery monitor recognizes the battery, and that it's charged, but as soon as I unplug the power cable it turns off as if the battery weren't even there :-(
[02:55] <kane77> how do I create/connect to bluetooth PAN? or how do I make ad-hoc wifi network?
[02:56] <hendrixski> It's old enough that it's not worth taking it to a shop, what do I do?
[02:56] <rm130> hendrixski, your battery is gone bad I guess
[02:56] <stefg> hendrixski: that probably means that a cell has burst inside the battery pack
[02:56] <nanonyme> might or might not be worth it to buy a new battery
[02:56] <nanonyme> depends a bit
[02:57] <alcoholic> any good firewall for ubuntu ?
[02:57] <hendrixski> stefg, rm130, nanonyme,  I have 2 batteries though, and neither of them work on it... which makes me think it's a problem with the laptop itself
[02:57] <renzo17> alcoholic: firestarter / iptables
[02:57] <AndrewB> !firewall | alcoholic
[02:57] <ubotu> alcoholic: 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).
[02:57] <nanonyme> ah
[02:58] <hendrixski> alcoholic, the linux kernel comes with a firewall inside of it, if you want to monitor it then install firestarter :-)
[02:58] <kauer> hendrixski: do you have another laptop you could test the battery in?
[02:58] <renzo17> rm130: have a look, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36564/
[02:58] <hendrixski> kauer, I do not, nobody at my LUG has a similar laptop
[02:58] <stefg> hendrixski: yeah... true. so the switching logic might have gone bad. Does it happen from live CD, too?
[02:59] <rm130> renzo17, Thanks. What's the command to be able to edit the xorg.conf?
[02:59] <rm130> renzo17, nevermind lol
[02:59] <hendrixski> stefg, oh, so it may be a software thing you think?
[02:59] <rm130> See that you already put the instructions :D
[02:59] <nn-laptop> help! I installed a ubuntu system it gets to the boot menu then all text disipers no boot info --- Nothing ;;; when it gets to graphic mode gdm you see the cursor for a secound then it switches video mode then nothing i can even get to a shell please help me fix this?
[02:59] <kauer> hendrixski: well, you might try the vendor or your local computer store. Even just putting a mltimeter across the terminals would inducate if there is a basic problem...
[02:59] <renzo17> quick question all, is glxgears a valid test to see if 3d is working?
[02:59] <nanonyme> not really
[02:59] <renzo17> rm130: line 3 of the pastebin
[02:59] <stefg> hendrixski: just to verify that it's not just an acpi /apm error
[02:59] <nanonyme> at least if you're interested of knowing if you have direct rendering on
[02:59] <Vendeta> has anyone got ereseva working??????? (its like gtalk with voip on linux)
[02:59] <nanonyme> i've heard glxgears can do emulation
[03:00] <hendrixski> kauer, wow, I totally didn't think of that
[03:00] <renzo17> nanonyme: i see, so hows a good way to test it?
[03:00] <nanonyme> renzo17, glxinfo|grep direct
[03:00] <alcoholic> 2.6.20-15-server #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:41:34 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[03:00] <kauer> hendrixski: it's just a battery...
[03:00] <Pingviller> hey guys
[03:00] <alcoholic> so it dont have iptables
[03:00] <alcoholic>  :s
[03:00] <renzo17> nanonyme: thanks
[03:00] <Pingviller> I just found my harddrive full
[03:00] <Pingviller> and the files that filled it up can't be seen :(
[03:01] <kauer> hendrixski: what kind of laptop is it?
[03:01] <hendrixski> stefg, cool well, I'm dual booting Ubuntu feisty and edgy, I guess I'll try it on edgy
[03:01] <hendrixski> kauer it's a toshiba portege tablet PC
[03:01] <stefg> hendrixski: does this relate to the latest kernel update in any way? Like this was the first boot after kernel update?
[03:01] <nbkr> Pingviller, Try to empty the trash. Gnome and KDE put a hidden Trash folder on every drive. Even on USB - Sticks.
[03:01] <rm130> renzo17, weird the command didn't work
[03:01] <kauer> hendrixski: toshiba is a reputble brand; the local dealer should be able to help.
[03:01] <hendrixski> kauer, now, that kind of test they can do on the battery and on the laptop hardware itself right?
[03:01] <nbkr> Pingviller, if that doesn't help there are some more tools to locate the files.
[03:01] <Pingviller> nbkr: trash is empty
[03:02] <renzo17> did you put the # in? i just put there to show it was a command, start ttyping the command from gksudo onwards rm130
[03:02] <nbkr> Pingviller, What drive is it, that is full. The normal harddisk of the PC or an external disk?
[03:02] <rm130> renzo17, yeah that's what I did
[03:02] <hendrixski> stefg, I don't think so, I did my updates last week... I usually do them every month or two
[03:02] <renzo17> rm130: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:02] <Shay_cyber5482> hi, i want to download software named "sun grid engine" in the website i have 2 download format : rpm or tar.gz .. for ubuntu system what format to download ?
[03:02] <Pingviller> nbkr: I just got one disk :)
[03:03] <stefg> hendrixski: ok, so that aparently  doesn't relate...
[03:03] <nucco> hi
[03:03] <Geophage> i'm running ubuntu on a g3 imac, which is having trouble booting after a power outage. nautilus won't start, there are clock application errors, and this happens even after booting from a live cd. any ideas?
[03:03] <nucco> is it possible to do webfiltering with squid?
[03:03] <hendrixski> stefg, why does the new kernel have even more ACPI problems?
[03:03] <rm130> renzo17, gedit: command not found
[03:03] <renzo17> Shay_cyber5482: have you searched synaptic first for the package?
[03:03] <renzo17> you using gnome/xfce/kde?
[03:03] <nbkr> Pingviller, Ok than run "du -hs /* 2>/dev/null" on the console (without the quotes of course). That will show you where most of the space is used.
[03:03] <hendrixski> stefg, I mean, ubuntu feisty just always had problems waking up certain devices on this thing, like the USB drive, etc.
[03:03] <stefg> hendrixski: i wasn't saying it has any more or less acpi problems... i was just running down the checklist for probable hints
[03:04] <jono> anyone know how to stop a device being busy - namely a sound card - no running processes are using it - can I force it to flush out all data and become free again?
[03:04] <Shay_cyber5482> renzo what is "synaptic" ? (sorry about my english)
[03:04] <rm130> renzo17, installing gedit
[03:04] <koshari> can anyone tell me why samba is so slow?
[03:04] <Pingviller> nbkr: it's all in /home
[03:05] <stefg> jono: the sound daemon might be hogging it. killall esd ?
[03:05] <nbkr> koshari, did you mount a share with mount -t smbfs ?
[03:05] <hendrixski> stefg, ah,  Ok.  So I'm gonna try booting into my other ubuntu partition and see if it works... then if not I'll take it to a computer store like kauer suggested
[03:05] <renzo17> rm130: gedit is just a text editor.......there are others
[03:05] <jono> stefg: nope
[03:05] <nbkr> Pingviller, Then run "du -hs /home/* 2>/dev/null" - that will show you which homedir is wasting disk space.
[03:05] <realnewguy> hey guys is there some way to scan a windows partition for viruses/trojans with ubuntu?
[03:05] <rm130> hey renzo17, if I run glxgears how can I find out that 3d is working?
[03:06] <renzo17> RealNclamav
[03:06] <renzo17> realnewguy: clamav
[03:06] <renzo17> i got that wrong, refresh the pastebin for the proper command
[03:06] <hendrixski> oh, jono the NY Loco team wanted to talk to you about how to throw a conference, and get event insurance and all that stuff
[03:07] <jono> hendrixski: right
[03:07] <rm130> brb gonna restart X
[03:07] <Shay_cyber5482> renzo17 : from where i can download the package "synaptic" ?
[03:08] <Pingviller> nbkr: hmm feels like some numbers are missing
[03:08] <renzo17> Shay_cyber5482: System -> Admin -> Synaptic Package Manager ....................you already have it
[03:08] <hendrixski> jono, I may be the only one awake from the NY group, but, I think the question was if you know how others did it... since we think you'd be the right guy to talk to about something like that
[03:08] <nbkr> Pingviller, Pardon?
[03:08] <realnewguy> so i can scan windows for viruses with clamav?
[03:09] <taime1> clamwin
[03:09] <jono> hendrixski: its best to ask on loco-contacts :)
[03:09] <koshari> nbkr i dont want to mount the share, i just want to browse to it and move it, iam getting pultry 4mbs where on the same connection with apache the file runs atr full network speed (100mbs)
[03:09] <renzo17> realnewguy: should be able to yeah if you can see the windows share from your linux box
[03:09] <Pingviller> nbkr: 2 GB are not listed in the directory that should be the directory where it is
[03:09] <hendrixski> jono Ok
[03:09] <AngryElf> how do I add themes that have been downloaded from gnome-look.org?
[03:09] <TimeTraveller> anyone know a good ssh klient that can store passwords secure ? would be nice if it supports VNC also...
[03:09] <realnewguy> yup my windows partition is mounted, and i can look through it
[03:09] <Pingviller> which is the exact amount of space that vanished when I cancelled a torrent-file
[03:10] <stefg> AngryElf: just drag'n'drop it into the theme-manager
[03:10] <realnewguy> ive got ubuntu and windowsxp on the same HD, just i partitioned it in half
[03:10] <nbkr> Pingviller, Maybe there are just not accessible for your user. Try to do the command with sudo: "sudo du -hs /home/* "
[03:10] <sluimers> My printer doesn't print very well... every colour image comes out faint blue
[03:10] <mon^rch> AngryElf: drag&drop them onto the theme manager
[03:10] <AngryElf> stefg: it says invalid file format -- iom' dragging in the *gz file
[03:10] <Shay_cyber5482> renzo17 : after i runing synaptic what version of "Sun grid engine 6.1" i need to download ? rpm or tar.gz ?
[03:10] <hendrixski> jono, is that an IRC channel? it's empty :-(
[03:11] <Pingviller> nbkr: still no trace of it
[03:11] <nbkr> koshari, Browsing and moving? In Nautilus?
[03:11] <Pingviller> nbkr: got a friend saying I should remove my profile and make a new one to solve it :(
[03:11] <jono> hendrixski: its a mailing list on lists.ubuntu.com :)
[03:11] <stefg> AngryElf: then the package might contain subarchives...
[03:11] <dyrne> sluimers: what driver ya using? check linuxprinting.org with google search like 'site:linuxprinting.org printermodel'
[03:11] <Pingviller> but that just feels so incredibly lame
[03:11] <renzo17> Shay_cyber5482: neither, everything in synaptic is already built specially for ubuntu (.deb files) just tick the box (if you can find it) and then click Apply, it will then download and install the package for you
[03:11] <hendrixski> jono,  oh... :-( I should've googled.  Cool, thanks for you time :-)
[03:11] <sluimers> dyrne, I use the reccomended driver bj8pa06n.upp
[03:12] <koshari> nbkr , yes browsing using nautilas / network
[03:12] <nbkr> Pingviller, I wouldn't do that - only as kind of last resort. Is it a special file your are searching for. Did you try to find it with "find" ?
[03:12] <rm130> okay my computer jammed up when I tried glxgears
[03:12] <Frogzoo> after every boot, to run the vmplayer (d/ld from vmware, not the repos) I have to rerun the vmware-config.pl script - any ideas how to make the config permanent?
[03:12] <renzo17> rm130: what does " glxinfo | grep direct " output?
[03:12] <sluimers> dyrne, it's a canon smartbase MP360
[03:12] <jono> hendrixski: np :)
[03:13] <rm130> direct rendering: Yes
[03:13] <Pingviller> nbkr: I don't know the filenames, just that freeloader ran out of space on harddrive and cancelled the download and I then deleted it but now the files are missing instead of deleted
[03:13] <rm130> renzo brb
[03:13] <AngryElf> stefg: doing "install theme" on the *.theme file doesn't work either :(
[03:13] <AngryElf> ....i get this on a bunch of themes
[03:13] <AdvoWork> hi there. is anyone on here using zimbra?
[03:13] <nbkr> Pingviller, Whats freeloader?
[03:13] <Pingviller> nbkr: torrent-client
[03:13] <Ayabara> !ati
[03:13] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:14] <Pingviller> ATI/nVidia made easy.. Envy-script, it kicks some royal behinds
[03:14] <stefg> AngryElf: then you might not have installed the right gtk-engines. Ususally the theme description should provide info which engine it's written for
[03:14] <nbkr> Is there a hidden folder .freeloader on your homedir?
[03:15] <taime1> why would my disabled startup programs Continue To Start Up in gnome?
[03:15] <nbkr> koshari, Is the samba server setup correctly - seems that it is a problem there and not necessarly on the client.
[03:15] <HaNNiBaL80> hello
[03:15] <visof> hello
[03:16] <rm130> renzo17, now glxgears works for some reason. I didn't do anything
[03:16] <Pingviller> nbkr: not that I can see I get alot of others but not .freeloader/
[03:16] <rm130> like I can see those gears moving
[03:16] <HaNNiBaL80> when using terminal server client to acess win2003, how can I switch back to ubuntu ?
[03:16] <cypherdelic> My gnome is crashing when i start GL Apps, i get back to gdm :( for example Cedega OpenGL Test
[03:16] <renzo17> rm130: so did you makes the changes and restart x?
[03:16] <rm130> on xorg?
[03:16] <cypherdelic> yes
[03:16] <visof> hi
[03:17] <renzo17> rm130: yeah
[03:17] <nbkr> Pingviller, What does df -h report? Just to make sure the disk is really full and not only freeloader reporting it.
[03:17] <rm130> renzo17, yeah I did when I restarted and tried glxgears it jammed up
[03:17] <renzo17> rm130: but now works ok?
[03:17] <Pingviller> nbkr: I'm using file browser to check available space
[03:17] <rm130> glxgears does, but like programs don't
[03:17] <AngryElf> stefg: i install gnome-art...maybe i'm missing something else?
[03:17] <mariqn> How to save files over NTFS when i'm using Ubuntu 7.04 ?
[03:18] <renzo17> rm130: even with glxgears closed?
[03:18] <faileas> mariqn: NTFS 3G

[03:28] <anandanbu> ubotu: thanks
[03:28] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[03:28] <Dr_willis> anandanbu,  i find it 'best' to keep windows and linux both on their own Hard drives. Or failing that. with a single hd. Install windows first to the first partition, (hda1) then let  (k)ubuntu have the rest of the 'unalllocated' space and auto-partition the unallocated space automaticiallye
[03:29] <Dr_willis> The GpartedLivecd (about 50mb download) is darn handy for 'resizing' partitions. Gparted/qtparted is on the ubuntu live cds also.
[03:29] <renzo17> anandanbu: Dr_willis may be more help than me
[03:29] <stefg> anandanbu: be aware that you will loose the grub bootloader in your MBR because windows just overwrites it. Have your Ubuntu CD ready or d/l the super grub disk to be able to boot to ubuntu again
[03:29] <anandanbu> Dr_willis: actually i have installed gparted in my system but not able to partititon it
[03:30] <Dr_willis> anandanbu,  note the use of 'live cd' :) every time we mention gparted.
[03:30] <koshari> well i set the samba server up all the ways i could and the xfer rates are still lousy, it has to be a sanba thing as apache serving the same files across the same network it full ethernet speed.
[03:30] <anandanbu> stefg: i have the ubuntu7.04 cd would that solve my problem
[03:30] <renzo17> rm130: the openchrome driver is available in gutsy apparently.........so must be quite new.....
[03:30] <Dr_willis> You can NOT (well dont want to) resize the partition you got mounted/booteed off of.
[03:30] <felipernb> hello, i have an acer laptop with sis760 video card. the monitor screen can display until 1280x800, but my external monitor handles better 1440x900, i want to set each one with its own resolution but with the clone of the image, is it possible?

[03:31] <serici>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY okls74
[03:31] <stefg> anandanbu: yes, you need to boot to Live CD and then restore grub from there (and make some changes to allow dual booting to your /boot/grub/menu.lst)

[03:34] <ccccs> i had windows installed and i dual booted with ubuntu, and somehow ubuntu had intertet connection without me configuring anything
[03:34] <Dr_willis> koshari,  the smb config file has some tips in the comments for making it work a little faster.
[03:34] <ccccs> my ISP cut off my connection and i changed ISP, i removed windows and in a few days im getting the new connection
[03:34] <ccccs> what do i have to change so i can connect to the internet?
[03:35] <koshari> dr willis, the machine thats serving the samba shares is a friends and will be serving media to a winxp machine,  because LAMP server the files so well were looking at loading firefox with the vlc plugins and just serving the media from apache through the web browser

[03:38] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[03:38] <CompJunki> who loves linux here ?
[03:38] <sam1338> you
[03:38] <cypherdelic> sam1338: ;) yeah that is probably a good way but not a nice one
[03:38] <ccccs> so any help for me?
[03:38] <CompJunki> hehe
[03:39] <Pici> sam1338: It uses something based off of parted, which I believe is the same thing that the debian installer uses, its been a while since I used debian.
[03:39] <cypherdelic> WE
[03:39] <CompJunki> I
[03:39] <DuClare> I love metal
[03:39] <Pici> !offtopic | CompJunki
[03:39] <ubotu> CompJunki: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:39] <CompJunki> lol
[03:39] <sam1338> thats like you saying you love a hammer
[03:39] <danielax> Hey guys. I've got firefox 2.0.0.6. It silently fails to start. Some probing later, it says it's missing libxpcom.so. A LD_LIBRARY_PATH to it's location removes the error, but it still fails silently, error code 1. Google doesn't seem to have anything beyond that.
[03:39] <CompJunki> Pici:  stop being so strict
[03:39] <CompJunki> i was only chatting
[03:39] <CompJunki> nicely
[03:39] <cypherdelic> i love marihuana, my girlfriend and linux
[03:39] <cypherdelic> muhahaha
[03:39] <CompJunki> so pick on someone your own size
[03:39] <ccccs> so any help for me?  ..........
[03:40] <CompJunki> or ill hate ubuntu
[03:40] <Morrowyn> ccccs, what does your xorg logs tell you?
[03:40] <stefg> !Coc
[03:40] <CompJunki> cos your moanie gits
[03:40] <ubotu> The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/
[03:40] <kane77> how do I create ad-hoc wifi?
[03:40] <CompJunki> that wear glasses ?
[03:40] <ccccs> Morrowyn my xorg logs? what does xorg have to do with my problem?
[03:40] <Morrowyn> it crashes doesn;t it?
[03:40] <Pici> CompJunki: I don't care if you like Ubuntu or not. I just ask that you take your offtopic stuff to #ubuntu-offtopic.
[03:40] <DuClare> ccccs, umm, if the new ISP uses DHCP like I assume your old one did, then there's nothing to change
[03:40] <CompJunki> xorg should be ditch
[03:40] <CompJunki> and re-done
[03:41] <ccccs> DuClare but i got a new username/password
[03:41] <CompJunki> in 32bit GUI
[03:41] <nbkr> Pingviller, Sorry I have been offline for a while. You could do "ls -R /home > ~/files.txt" to have all files below /home listed in the file /home/youruser/files.txt. But that are sure very much files to have a look at.
[03:41] <Morrowyn> oops sorry cccs wrong person :P
[03:41] <DuClare> ccccs, uhh o_O username/password for what?
[03:41] <cypherdelic> I have another problem to solve: At bootup i get maintenance shell because of fsck cant find the UUID, i simply can press Enter followed by CONTROL-D and everything works, but its annoying me
[03:41] <jrib> CompJunki: if you don't have a support question or are helping someone else, please move the discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic.  and stop pressing enter to break up your thoughts!  no more warnings
[03:41] <ccccs> my connection.. oh.. im not very good with computers.. sorry
[03:41] <cypherdelic> anyone does know how to fix that
[03:41] <Dr_willis> cypherdelic,  edit the fstab , fix the uuid entry.
[03:41] <Pingviller> nbkr: that would mean a crapload of files :P
[03:41] <ccccs> im just telling you what they told me
[03:41] <Morrowyn> was meant at cypherdelic
[03:41] <ccccs> Morrowyn okay heh :P
[03:42] <Morrowyn> :)
[03:42] <NET||abuse> Anyone ever used a nice app for viewing mail log files? something that can group up details to do with one incoming email, de-obfusticate the huge bulk of information in those logs?
[03:42] <DuClare> ccccs, you don't usually need an username/password to actually CONNECT (unless it's a dial-up)
[03:42] <cypherdelic> Morrowyn: yes i.e glxgears crashed
[03:42] <cypherdelic> Dr_willis: how do i know which is the correct one?
[03:42] <ccccs> DuClare okay, awesome then :D
[03:42] <ccccs> thanks
[03:42] <nbkr> Pingviller, correct. It will list all files. If you do "ls -Ra > ~/files.txt" it will even list the hidden ones.
[03:42] <DuClare> ccccs, I believe that username/password pair is for email or some personal settings that you can change on your isp's site or something..
[03:42] <CompJunki> :(
[03:42] <Dr_willis> !uuid
[03:42] <ubotu> To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  sudo blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[03:43] <ccccs> aah i see.. something like a profile/account then
[03:43] <cypherdelic> Dr_willis: UUID=c15898bc-ec27-478a-b6f5-dcffa133dc14 /               reiserfs notail          0       1
[03:43] <CompJunki> you hate me ?
[03:43] <DuClare> ccccs, yep
[03:43] <cypherdelic> cypherdelic@HaeckFlaisch:~$ !uuid
[03:43] <cypherdelic> bash: !uuid: event not found
[03:43] <Dr_willis> cypherdelic,  that !uuid factoid is worth reading.. OR ya can always use the old fashioned /dev/hd## or whatever style info.
[03:43] <Dr_willis> cypherdelic,  thats A BOT command.
[03:43] <stefg> cypherdelic: first run 'sudo blkid' to refresh /etc/blkid.tab' than take a look at that file and compare to /etc/fstab if the UUID's are the same. Finally inspect the # kopt= .... -line in /boot/grub/menu.lst if your kernel options are set to the right uuid after update-grub
[03:43] <Dr_willis> irc 101. :)
[03:44] <Dr_willis> !bot

[03:45] <juan> can you remove the firefox crash warning
[03:45] <danielax> Hey guys. I've got firefox 2.0.0.6. It silently fails to start. Some probing later, it says it's missing libxpcom.so. A LD_LIBRARY_PATH to it's location removes the error, but it still fails silently, error code 1. Google doesn't seem to have anything beyond that.
[03:45] <danielax> juan: what crash warning? can you elaborate?
[03:46] <stefg> danielax: is that on 32bit or 64 bit?
[03:46] <danielax> stefg: 32, p3 coppermine
[03:46] <AboSamoor> can you tell me about a tutorial or thread to learn how to start SWAT service ?
[03:46] <juan> danielax:  when you shutdown your system without clossing firefox it thinks it crashed, so when you start firefox it pops up a warning
[03:47] <Pici> !swat | AboSamoor this might help
[03:47] <ubotu> AboSamoor this might help: 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
[03:47] <cypherdelic> stefg: the UUID from blkid, fdisk and menu.lst (kernel line and kopt) are equal
[03:47] <ccccs> i still prefer 1.5 over 2.0 .. crashes less for me
[03:47] <danielax> juan: so if you close firefox before shutdown - does it go away?
[03:48] <stefg> danielax: strange... shouldn't happen. have you tried a fresh profile (without extension and default skin) . Could be some extension is ill-behaving
[03:48] <cypherdelic> I have another problem to solve: At bootup i get maintenance shell because of fsck cant find the UUID, i simply can press Enter followed by CONTROL-D and everything works, but its annoying me
[03:48] <cypherdelic>  the UUID from blkid, fdisk and menu.lst (kernel line and kopt) are equal
[03:48] <juan> yes, its because firefox cant tell the diference between a shutdown and a crash
[03:48] <danielax> stefg: trying that now
[03:48] <fn0rd> Ello
[03:49] <danielax> juan: sorry - I'm a little confused. Can you close ff manualy before shutting down?
[03:49] <cypherdelic> stefg , Dr_willis : Do you have any further ideas?
[03:49] <inc_> hi all
[03:50] <fn0rd> When I used breezy, on booting up there was a screen with a list of set up tasks going by
[03:50] <juan> danielax: yes but im trying to reconfigure mine so i dont have to
[03:50] <fn0rd> but now with feisty its just a progress bar graphic
[03:50] <fn0rd> on feisty how can i get the list on bootup?
[03:51] <stefg> cypherdelic: hmmm.... then maybe rebuilding the initrd could help (not sure if there's any uuid info stored within). sudo update-initramfs
[03:51] <danielax> stefg: that workd a treat - thanks :)
[03:51] <danielax> juan: ok - now I understand
[03:51] <W9ZEB> is there a reason that aliass added to ~/.profile would not be sourced when logging into 7.04
[03:51] <danielax> juan: try looking in about:config
[03:51] <W9ZEB> specifically after gnome launches, when opening an xterm
[03:52] <genii> fn0rd: for one time only, hit ESC during GRUB, edit default kernel line that is loading to remove splash and quiet. For Every time, make these changes in the /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:52] <danielax> juan: (ie type about:config into the ff address bar)
[03:52] <cypherdelic> stefg can't i just disable fsck at bootup?
[03:52] <nour> hey people, can somebody guide me i want to connect to the internet with ubuntu 7.04 with a virtualbox
[03:52] <inc_> i have a problem, with key layout. Dapper with Gnome (may some libs broken) http://pastebin.ca/684016  I can not change layout at all. How can i fix it please?
[03:52] <excalibas> Can someone help with a Wubi instalation that went wrong?
[03:52] <cypherdelic> stefg: i mean, it doesnt work so atm so its useless
[03:52] <giRL> surabaya
[03:52] <fn0rd> Thanks genii!
[03:53] <danielax> excalibas: I suggest trying theWubi support channel
[03:53] <MOTZ> that is toooo long
[03:53] <juan> danielax: ive tried that but theres only 1 option and it stops the tabs being restored
[03:53] <MOTZ> last time it was muchg more shirt
[03:53] <stefg> cypherdelic: yes, by setting the dump and pass colums to  0 0 ... in /etc/fstab. But i would only use that as a temporary fix and investigate further what's going on
[03:53] <genii> fn0rd: np
[03:54] <excalibas> danielax: is there an irc channel for that?
[03:54] <cypherdelic> stefg: im not experienced enough
[03:54] <TheZanke> is it possible to get my mic working in my VMware XP Pro?
[03:54] <cypherdelic> stefg: thats why i am here
[03:54] <danielax> excalibas: according to the website at wubi-installer.org/support.php, no, but for support you should use the forum thead referred to on that page
[03:55] <stefg> cypherdelic: does 'ls -gG /dev/disk/by-uuid' turn up the right uuid for your /-drive?
[03:55] <imxoteb>  
[03:55] <blah123> hi, is it possible to make the ubuntu taskbar group similar items, like all my open office docs are listed under openoffice and then I can click that for a list of the open docs?
[03:55] <stefg> !ru
[03:55] <ubotu>    #ubuntu-ru       /  Pozhalujsta vojdite v #ubuntu-ru dlq pomoshchi na russkom qzyke
[03:56] <excalibas> danielax: ok, i will try to use the forums, thanks
[03:56] <neott> Hi Guys :)
[03:57] <cypherdelic> stefg: its the same but it finally boot up that way so i guess it actually is the right uuid
[03:57] <danielax> juan: hmm
[03:57] <jrib> blah123: it does that when you have enough windows open or you can have it always do it if you right click on the window list and go to "preferences"
[03:57] <danielax> juan: Maybe the firefox irc channel could help
[03:57] <danielax> juan: it seems to be to be more of a ff issue than a ubuntu issue
[03:57] <nour> hi neott , can u guide me i want to connect to the internet with ubuntu 7.04 with a virtualbox :P
[03:58] <danielax> nour: pardon my ignorance, but what's a virtualbox?
[03:58] <Johto> danielax: emulator
[03:58] <cypherdelic> stefg: can i replace the uuid by /dev/sda3 in all three files
[03:58] <Johto> danielax: like vmware
[03:58] <danielax> Johto: ah thx.
[03:59] <Johto> danielax: check what vmware is, then you have better idea, its "virtual pc" inside pc
[03:59] <nour> danielax: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtualbox :D
[03:59] <gudegnaw> I am on an Xp curretnly wanting to VNC to my ubuntu at home. Problem is, my ubuntu box is behind a school firewall and does not have an outside IP. I can, however connect (SSH) into a lab computer running Debian and then SSH into my machine from there on. How can I bounce off the the debian machine to my ubuntu if I want to VNC to my machine?, SSH tunneling, ideas {tools available on XP right now : PuTTY, RealVNC}
[03:59] <cypherdelic> stefg: can i replace the uuid by /dev/sda3 in all three files?
[03:59] <danielax> Johto: I'm familiar with the concept, just not that implementation
[03:59] <stefg> cypherdelic: sure... just be aware that kernel updates (and update-grub in the following) might have surprising consequences. also edit the #kopt - line in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:59] <sparr> I would like to connect to my VPN at work.  It Just Works with our windows xp clients.  I can get kvpnc to say that I am connected, and i have a somewhat sensible looking ppp0 device after that, but nothing else seems to work.  Help?
[04:00] <cypherdelic> stefg: i mean both menu.lst and fstab
[04:00] <danielax> gudegnaw: ah - you have a nice school. Mine won't let me ssh out at all
[04:00] <stefg> cypherdelic: yes
[04:00] <cypherdelic> stefg: why do they have consequences, do they change my sda*
[04:00] <dyrne> sparr: cat /etc/resolv.conf make sure the dns is a 10.0 something or whatever your internal dns servers are
[04:00] <dyrne> sparr: might be all it is
[04:00] <danielax> gudegnaw: maybe port forward with putty, then use realvnc
[04:00] <TimeTraveller> i just downloaded open ssh ... unpaced it and run ./configure .. now i tried to write make but got the answer "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop." what can this be ?
[04:00] <gudegnaw> danielax, the debian machine is a server our proff set up a while ago and it does have a static ip
[04:01] <cypherdelic> stefg: or do kernel updates just again replace /dev/sda3 by UUID?
[04:01] <Pici> TimeTraveller: Why did you do that? openssh is in the Ubuntu package repositories.
[04:01] <stefg> cypherdelic: if the #kopt- line is wrong, your /menu.lst gets written wrong and your machine might fail to boot (root-fs not found)
[04:01] <danielax> TimeTraveller: if you want openssh, you might find it easier to install it with aptitude/synaptic
[04:01] <gudegnaw> I am just not sure how to forward my ubuntu's connection via the debian and make it available for VNC
[04:01] <dyrne> sparr: usually i just use vpnc. so i do like sudo vpnc --domain=mycompanydomain     then vpnc prompts me for the fields it needs if i havent setup a config file to tell it
[04:01] <cypherdelic> stefg: but it should always be sda3
[04:02] <cypherdelic> because i use sda1 for swap
[04:02] <cypherdelic> sda2 is an crypted real big one
[04:02] <danielax> gudegnaw: so with putty, ssh into the deb
[04:02] <skyfalcon866> will i notice a speed difference with a i386 kernel
[04:03] <MasterShrek> skyfalcon866, as opposed to what?
[04:03] <gudegnaw> danielax: and how do I forward the port once SSHed into the Deb?
[04:03] <skyfalcon866> a generic kernel
[04:03] <danielax> gudegnaw: man ssh has a good guide
[04:04] <skyfalcon866> is pentium 3 686 or 386
[04:04] <MasterShrek> skyfalcon866, maybe, it may not be extremely noticeable though
[04:04] <Pici> skyfalcon866: Just use the generic kernel. Why do you want to install i386/i686?
[04:04] <cypherdelic> stefg: i will reboot now, good luck
[04:04] <sparr> dyrne: vpnc: hash comparison failed:  (ISAKMP_N_AUTHENTICATION_FAILED)(24)
[04:04] <danielax> gudegnaw: I'm not an ssh-port-forwarding-funky-port-hopping-school-networking-geius, so I might not be able to do that much good
[04:04] <sparr> dyrne: im skipping the ipsec id and ipsec secret prompts
[04:04] <skyfalcon866> i might get speed boost if the kernel is optimized for the processor right?
[04:05] <Dr_willis> skyfalcon866,  a littel.. dont expect much. :)
[04:05] <skyfalcon866> ok then
[04:05] <skyfalcon866> i am using gutsys kernel right now in my fiesty box
[04:05] <Pici> skyfalcon866: I dont think you will notice anything.
[04:05] <Jack_Sparrow> skyfalcon866: You could do more by adding ram
[04:06] <skyfalcon866> i already maxed out my ram to 512
[04:06] <danielax> skyfalcon866: though you may if you benchmark before/after, and if you compile your own kenel
[04:06] <skyfalcon866> i got an older chipset intel 815e
[04:06] <skyfalcon866> pentium 3 933Mhz
[04:06] <taffy-nay> A recent updtae has broken some bindings in compiz (specifficly <Comtroll><Alt>Right for cube spinning)....has anyone else experiensed this
[04:06] <danielax> skyfalcon866: Yeah - P3 all the way :) I'm using one too :)
[04:06] <Dr_willis> skyfalcon866,  you may want to be using some of the lighter desktops then. :)
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> skyfalcon866: That should run ok as long as you dont try desktop effects and all that
[04:07] <danielax> skyfalcon866: (eg XFCE)
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> skyfalcon866: X is lighter
[04:07] <skyfalcon866> why Gnome is running faster than windoze xp does
[04:07] <degrit> 'ullo
[04:07] <degrit> I seem to have lost the ability to use ALT+xxxx to use special characters - any clues on what the problem might be ?
[04:07] <danielax> Jack_Sparrow: although arguably less user friendly :P
[04:07] <Dr_willis> skyfalcon866,  because the linux/gome/programers work harder at making things more efficneit. :)
[04:07] <stefg> !effects | taffy-nay
[04:07] <ubotu> taffy-nay: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> danielax: agreed
[04:08] <skyfalcon866> Does ubuntu support dual core processors or muti processors
[04:08] <stefg> !gutsy | taffy-nay
[04:08] <ubotu> taffy-nay: 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
[04:08] <Dr_willis> skyfalcon866,  yes.

[04:08] <Pici> skyfalcon866: read above ^
[04:09] <stefg> skyfalcon866: got more than 32 cores? :-)
[04:09] <b33r> Will I notice big difference if I add another 256MB of ram? I currently have 256MB
[04:09] <jrib> blah123: what desktop environment are you using?
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> b33r: It is worth the $
[04:09] <W9ZEB> what does ubuntu 7.04 use that's similar to ~/.xinitrc
[04:10] <stefg> b33r: the best you can do! 512 MB is sthe sweet spot for ubuntu
[04:10] <skyfalcon866> no i only got 1 core processor
[04:10] <blah123> jrib: I'm gnome gutsy but I found my problem I right clicked on the wrong part of the panel
[04:10] <b33r> Jack_Sparrow, not really I have RD-RAM PC1066 they are expensive =/
[04:10] <blah123> jrib: thanks
[04:10] <jrib> blah123: ah ok, np
[04:10] <Dr_willis> W9ZEB,  i was wondering that myself the other day. I recall seeing some xdefaults entry in gdm/kdm once.. but not lately.
[04:10] <skyfalcon866> i am looking into a new dual core processor
[04:10] <skyfalcon866> what is better amd or intel
[04:10] <danielax> b33r: probably - it means that instead of writng to hard-disk (slow), stuff is done in memory (fast)
[04:10] <realnewguy> guys!! i made a bit of a stuff up!! :S
[04:11] <Pici> skyfalcon866: Ask in ##hardware

[04:15] <realnewguy> :SSS
[04:15] <realnewguy> not working!!!
[04:15] <realnewguy> i cant do anything :S
[04:15] <realnewguy> how do i remove the firestarter entry from the session entry?
[04:15] <realnewguy> wihtout using the gui, cause gui not working :S
[04:15] <danielax> realnewguy: remove firestarter?
[04:15] <danielax> realnewguy: sudo apt-get remove firestarter maybe?
[04:15] <jrib> realnewguy: ~/.config/autostart/ will have a .desktop file for firestarter
[04:16] <realnewguy> ahh ok ty
[04:16] <danielax> realnewguy: try jrib way first :)
[04:16] <realnewguy> so if i remove that, it shouldnt try load everytime i log in?
[04:16] <Pici> realnewguy: I believe you can also use the failsafe entry to load gnome without starting startup apps.
[04:16] <GNine> firestarter seems to be a very stable application
[04:16] <realnewguy> failsafe dont work either :S
[04:16] <sparr> most of the cisco vpn software that i can find wants a group name and group password.  my work vpn has a windows domain, is that the group name?  what would the group password be?
[04:16] <realnewguy> its the fact i need permission to run it, which i forgot about
[04:17] <Wooksta> i've just installed feisty on my home pc, is there a way to get my usb webcam "trust 360 spacecam" working?
[04:17] <mewt> the latest xserver update makes xserver die if you try play any games..anyone else got this ?
[04:17] <realnewguy> so in the session thing, i added the entry, but for the command to load firestarter i forgot the "sudo" and just used "firestarter"
[04:17] <XenThraL> can anyone tell me how to flush/reset/drop/whatever all incoming connections in the list @ firestarter?
[04:17] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware | Wooksta
[04:17] <ubotu> Wooksta: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[04:17] <echelon-3> I cant SSH into my uni
[04:17] <danielax> Wooksta: well - what happens when you plug it in?
[04:17] <echelon-3> it comes up with Host key verification failed
[04:18] <echelon-3> it says the offending key is on line 3 but i removed all the content from the file
[04:18] <Wooksta> danielax, i can see it in lsusb so its recognised, just not sure how to configure it
[04:18] <W9ZEB> exit
[04:18] <jrib> echelon-3: what file?
[04:18] <danielax> echelon-3: that's really an ssh issue, but it probaly means that the uni's key has changed - try ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
[04:18] <dyrne> echelon-3: just rm -fr ~/.ssh ;)
[04:18] <nickrud> realnewguy: remove the firstarter reference in ~/.config/autostart
[04:18] <danielax> Wooksta: what does lsusb say about it?
[04:19] <realnewguy> kk done, ill log back out and try again, thanks again guys :)
[04:19] <jrib> danielax: ~/.ssh/known_hosts right?

[04:20] <neo2> hi
[04:20] <shelia_> Hello Everyone. How do I change my password in my ubuntu login screen?
[04:20] <realnewguy> awesome it worked :) :)
[04:20] <danielax> Wooksta: do you have any programs that are failing, or are you just plugging it in and hopeing something cool happens?
[04:20] <realnewguy> thanks again guys :)
[04:20] <dyrne> shelia_: do you know the current one?
[04:20] <neo2> does anybody have a asus a6va notebook and feisty fawn installed?
[04:20] <shelia_> yes
[04:20] <nickrud> shelia_: system->admin->users & groups
[04:20] <shelia_> thnx
[04:21] <Wooksta> danielax, i'm hoping to use the webcam with skype, but any test apps i can use to see that the webcam is working would be great
[04:21] <GNine> sarcasm duly noted daniela
[04:21] <GNine> :-P
[04:22] <neo2> the new fglrx-drivers don't work with my graphics card, everytime i install them i get a terrible grey screen on startup
[04:22] <realnewguy> how safe is it to portforward without firestarter on ubuntu? because firestarter is always picking up these events from the port ive forwarded
[04:22] <Moniker42> i'm installing feisty at the moment, how do i create NTFS partitions?
[04:22] <taffy-nay> ubotu: I'm using Fiesty not Gutsy
[04:22] <UpgradeBoy> Moniker42: gparted
[04:23] <danielax> Wooksta: I'm kind of out of my depth here... I was hoping it was something more simple :-P I don't actually have a webcam, so I'm not sure
[04:23] <danielax> Wooksta: oh - hang on:

[04:23] <ubotu> Wooksta: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[04:23] <Pici> taffy-nay: Ubotu is a bot.
[04:23] <Wooksta> nice one :)
[04:23] <danielax> Wooksta: try that :)
[04:23] <taffy-nay> i just realised
[04:23] <echelon-3> YES
[04:24] <echelon-3> thankyou dyrne
[04:24] <Wooksta> danielax, cheers
[04:24] <taffy-nay> am feeling a bit silly now
[04:24] <echelon-3> what was the -fr option?
[04:24] <GNine> !gutsy | taffy-nay
[04:24] <ubotu> taffy-nay: 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
[04:24] <danielax> echelon-3: sorry - lost you there - the -fr option to what?
[04:24] <Moniker42> i'm on the livecd, and gparted won't let me delete the linux-swap partition
[04:24] <realnewguy> how safe is it to portforward without firestarter on ubuntu? because firestarter is always picking up these events from the port ive forwarded?
[04:24] <echelon-3> rm -fr ~/.ssh
[04:24] <Pici> GNine: ?
[04:25] <danielax> echelon-3: -f = force, don't ask, -r = recuse into directory. man rm for more info
[04:25] <GNine> yah.. i hacked ubotu to say that
[04:25] <GNine> :-P
[04:25] <Svish> What do you do when an INSTALL file tells you to ./configure and then make, but make just returns "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop."?
[04:25] <Svish> "
[04:25] <danielax> realnewguy: "safe" is a relative term. For example I run my box without any firewall
[04:25] <stefg> realnewguy: understand that firestarter isn't the firewall, but a /frontend/ to the firewall inside the kernel, iptables. this runs all the time firestarter is just the gui
[04:25] <echelon-3> cool
[04:26] <Moniker42> i'm on the livecd, and gparted won't let me delete the linux-swap partition - how do i delete it?
[04:26] <danielax> Svish: it means you haven't installed a compiler
[04:26] <stefg> !iptables
[04:26] <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).
[04:26] <Svish> daffa: it does? But I just installed build-essential
[04:26] <danielax> Svish: if you are trying to install a program, there's usually an easier way
[04:26] <echelon-3> is there a reason i cant 'connect to server' to copy files from my uni anymore
[04:26] <jhatlelid> Hi, how di I install cc1plus on Ubuntu Feisty Fawn?
[04:26] <echelon-3> i did it just before
[04:26] <realnewguy> ahh ok cool, just that i use gtk-gnutella to dl music, so i portforward, is portforwarding safe at all?
[04:26] <stdin> Svish: looks like you need to run automake/autoconf
[04:26] <echelon-3> when i do it says cannot connect to server
[04:26] <ante> hi all
[04:27] <Svish> im trying to install afps-ng and probably FUSE, cause it says that it needs that
[04:27] <danielax> echelon-3: then that's a connection (network) issue, rather than a ssh issue
[04:27] <Svish> and both reports that same message
[04:27] <Svish> automake?
[04:27] <echelon-3> why would it be a connection issue?
[04:27] <stefg> realnewguy: that depends on the details
[04:27] <ante> does someone know a program for home financial budget managment ?
[04:27] <danielax> Svish: tryi aptitude/synaptic to install them first
[04:27] <Pici> Svish: Fuse is in the repositories. there is no need to compile it.
[04:27] <echelon-3> nevermind, its working now
[04:27] <danielax> echelon-3: kool
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> ante: You might look at gnucash
[04:28] <realnewguy> well im using a p2p network, so i have port 6xxxxxx portforwarded to my LAN address from my router,
[04:28] <GNine> if firewall doesnt block port forwarding, why are you troubled
[04:28] <juan> danielax: thats for the help earlier i found a solution on the mozilla forums
[04:28] <Svish> Pici: it is? I tried searching for it, but It didnt find it
[04:28] <realnewguy> oh ok, sorry i didnt know that
[04:28] <danielax> wow. hangin out in IRC is so much cooler than trying to hack on wordpress.
[04:28] <Pici> !fuse | Svish
[04:28] <ubotu> Svish: FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE.  Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here:  http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems
[04:28] <Svish> danielax: couldnt find it
[04:29] <danielax> juan: kool - no probs :)
[04:29] <danielax> Svish: do you have universe enabled?
[04:29] <juan> why does compiz require fuse?
[04:29] <Svish> danielax: oh, that could be it maybe.. ill check :)
[04:29] <Psy-X> ok
[04:29] <Pici> juan: Compiz doesnt require fuse.
[04:30] <Pici> juan: Where did you get that idea?
[04:30] <Svish> danielax: yes, they are all active
[04:30] <Svish> danielax: the repositories+
[04:30] <danielax> hmm. what exactly where you looking for?
[04:30] <Svish> danielax: oh, I think I might have found it now...
[04:31] <ante> jack_sparrow , ty m8 i will check
[04:31] <nour> sudo dhclient <yourinterface> <-- whats interface ?
[04:31] <nanonyme> ethX, likely
[04:31] <GNine> however, compiz is not theoretically native to ubuntu
[04:31] <juan> Pici im not sure im sure i spoted it when using synaptic to install compiz,
[04:32] <Pici> juan: Are you thinking of compiz-fusion?
[04:32] <dfgas_> is there a repo for the gnome 2.20 rc?
[04:33] <dfgas_> don't want to really compile it
[04:33] <juan> Pici:  yes, sorry wrong project but im still confused as to why fusion require fuse
[04:33] <GNine> either way ..  i dont think compiz is noob friendly
[04:34] <ante> how can i install: sudo apt-get install w32codecs ? it says it refers to another package
[04:34] <lnx^> heya
[04:35] <lnx^> i just bought a new acer acerpower s290 desktop computer
[04:35] <sparr> ante: read it again.
[04:35] <lnx^> bios detects both SATA disks fine, but ubuntu only detects the first one
[04:35] <stdin> ante: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/WindowsCodecs
[04:35] <Pici> juan: compiz-fusion does not require fuse. Either the repositiory you were using is really messed up, or you are thinking of something else.
[04:35] <GNine> !w32codecs | ante
[04:35] <ubotu> ante: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[04:35] <ante> ty guys
[04:35] <FatalError> is there a separate package repository for experimental/candidate packages?
[04:35] <genii> stdin: Did you manage to get that 64 bit source to compile for you?
[04:35] <lnx^> it only detects the one connected to ata1 - if i change sata ports for the disks, ubuntu only detects the one connected to ata1
[04:36] <jhatlelid> Anyone here using EMC Networker / Legato for Backup of a Linux Server ?
[04:36] <stefg> lnx^: standard kernel? what does sudo fdisk -l say?
[04:36] <juan> im guessing it was the repository, it installed it because there was a fuse plugin or something, just realised it was a 3rd party repo so not ubuntus fault
[04:36] <lnx^> stefg: yeah i'm booting it with the feisty installation disk
[04:36] <stdin> genii: yeah, I just did "find . -exec touch -t 2007010101 {} \;" and it compiled then :)

[04:37] <Svish> what version of automake should I install?
[04:37] <dyrne> kev8707: occationally ive had to use wine to run ie6 or firefox to get some flash content. that is very rare though
[04:38] <frojnd> hello there

[04:38] <genii> Svish: Whatever latest one Synaptic presents as an option should be fine
[04:38] <lnx^> stefg: i didn't find any, just that "ata2: SATA link down (SStatus 0 Scontrol 0)"
[04:38] <Jack_Sparrow> lnx^: Just a thought , but did you look at the size to make sure it wasnt seeing a single raid or something like that.

[04:39] <bond`> "partition does not end on cylinder boundary",  is this bad?
[04:39] <frojnd> pppoeconf won't automatically connect to to the internet when computer starts. I have to do it manualy even though I set during the pppoeconf installation to connect automatically. Is this maybe because I have DHCP ?
[04:39] <lnx^> Jack_Sparrow: oh that could be the case, there are no specs about this computer and both disks are 160gb sata ones. what do you mean by looking at the sizes?
[04:39] <Pici> kev8707: Flash is messy under linux. Unfortunately, this is proprietary software and there really isnt anything we can do to fix the problem.  The issue is known.

[04:40] <dwa> Albert: what's wrong with it?
[04:40] <erUSUL> lnx^: that only means that in that port there is nothing attached afaik (that's the msg i get)
[04:40] <stefg> lnx^: and double check the cble connector for tight fit

[04:52] <erUSUL> !wine | Rico
[04:52] <ubotu> Rico: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:52] <Rico> the only Linux experience i have is from TAFE, doing Cert III
[04:52] <Svish> danielax: ah, ok. well thanks for the help so far anyways :) good night
[04:52] <stefg> lnx^: so try that... apart from some cosmetical stuff i find gutsy already quite usable. Would be interesting if the gutsy kerenl fixes that
[04:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Rico: There are lots of ways to set one of these up, I dual boot.. ie select XP or Ubuntu on power-up
[04:53] <danielax> Rico:  an aussie then?
[04:53] <GNine> !cedega | Rico
[04:53] <ubotu> Rico: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[04:53] <Rico> yes, an Aussie :P. I'm going to do a duel boot, but would like to go full Linux or as much as possible
[04:54] <Rico> how about Direct X and drivers, are they covered with wine and cedega?
[04:54] <danielax> Rico: I'd just go for it. Put it on a spare computer if you can though, because if anythign goes wrong, at least you've go a computer to fall back on
[04:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Rico: What software do you use on WIndows would you like to find an equivalent one for linux
[04:54] <erUSUL> Rico: you need linux drivers... directX is implemented in wine
[04:54] <degrit> Rico: check out the #cedega and #winehq channels too
[04:54] <Rico> well my video card
[04:55] <Rico> and other hardware, would they be compatible with Linux
[04:55] <danielax> Ubuntu runs better than 'doze on older hardware, so if you've got a slightly older box lying around, put it on that
[04:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Rico: SO it looks like you want to mostly run "WIndows" games
[04:55] <danielax> !hardware|Rico
[04:55] <ubotu> Rico: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[04:55] <erUSUL> Rico: dunno what hardware do you have? nvidia is better supported than ati in video cards
[04:55] <florent_> houl...
[04:56] <Rico> ATI X1950GT
[04:56] <Rico> lol
[04:56] <gnuskool> :D
[04:56] <erUSUL> Rico: anything alse is fairly well supported
[04:56] <GNine> id do a dual boot .. use windows for gaming .. but thats not too purist now
[04:56] <erUSUL> !ati | Rico
[04:56] <ubotu> Rico: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:56] <degrit> my ALT+xxxx doesn't seem to work anymore for typing characters, can anyone help ?
[04:56] <GNine> :-P
[04:56] <Rico> lol
[04:56] <iain88> can anybody help me with Apache?'
[04:57] <Rico> i know that ill have to keep XP on, but the more i can move to Linux the better.
[04:57] <gnuskool> iain88: spit it out
[04:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Someone posted a press release about ati drivers yesterday..
[04:57] <iain88> doesn't let me display php files - asks me to save them
[04:57] <erUSUL> genii: if you read the tech news today you will see that ATI (AMD) is trying to solve that...
[04:57] <Rico> solve what?
[04:57] <erUSUL> genii: http://linux.slashdot.org/linux/07/09/06/1335230.shtml
[04:58] <Dex-Freudii> Hi all
[04:58] <genii> erUSUL: Thx, i'll read
[04:58] <iain88> don't know why - i installed it through synaptic last night and it worked fine, along with PHP5, but today its just asking me to save the php files rather than display them
[04:58] <danielax> Rico: the drivers for the ati/nvidia drivers are closed-souce (=bad)
[04:58] <Rico> so when i install Ubutu, it will boot up and then ill have to install the drivers from there, or installation?
[04:58] <stefg> !faq
[04:58] <ubotu> A list of common questions and answers about Ubuntu: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions - Official documentation: http://help.ubuntu.com - IRC FAQ: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRCResourcePage
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> degrit: did you enable desktop effects..beryl..compiz etc
[04:58] <Rico> i do have a fair bit of knowledge on computers in general, so i know closed-souce is bad =(
[04:58] <Dex-Freudii> is there a way of setting my PC as a wireless access point without using a router?? I need a wireless conection to another PC but I don't have a router
[04:58] <degrit> Jack_Sparrow:  no
[04:59] <Jack_Sparrow> degrit: Just asking as I lost my shortcuts when I enabled effects
[04:59] <danielax> iain88: have you got libapache2-mod-php?
[04:59] <Dark_Rain> Dex-Freudii, ad-hog infrastructure
[04:59] <iain88> i'll check, but if its required then i should imagine so - all was well yesterday
[04:59] <Jack_Sparrow> hoc
[04:59] <Dark_Rain> hoc
[04:59] <erUSUL> Rico: in feisty (last version) you simply go to System>Admin>Restricted drivers and enable the drivers there
[05:00] <degrit> Jack_Sparrow: and where would u set it up again ?
[05:00] <Dex-Freudii> ad-hog? what is that?
[05:00] <GNine> there are some open source nvidia drivers
[05:00] <danielax> Rico: cool - sorry :)
[05:00] <Dark_Rain> ad-hoc
[05:00] <Dark_Rain> my mistake
[05:00] <Jack_Sparrow> degrit: Set up what?
[05:00] <__ele__> i wanna have a own repository on my external hard disk...what is the best way to download all packages from packages from packages.ubunutu.com?
[05:00] <degrit> Jack_Sparrow: the shortcuts
[05:00] <Jack_Sparrow> degrit: in the gconf-editor
[05:00] <degrit> I wouldn't have thought the typing of ascii with alt+number was a keyboard shortcut
[05:00] <lnx^> stefg: what kinds of cosmetical problems are there in gutsy?
[05:00] <Dex-Freudii> Dark_Rain: what is ad-hoc?
[05:01] <degrit> Jack_Sparrow: care to elaborate ?
[05:01] <danielax> __ele__: apt-mirror (IIRC) and apt-cache might be worth a look
[05:01] <Dark_Rain> http://compnetworking.about.com/cs/wirelessfaqs/f/adhocwireless.htm
[05:01] <Jack_Sparrow> degrit: one sec.
[05:01] <stefg> lnx^: gdm theme not changing is the most obviuos, nothing serious. but gutsy talk is in #ubuntu+1
[05:01] <Dex-Freudii> thnx
[05:01] <__ele__> danielax: and other possibilities?
[05:03] <danielax> __ele__: not sure - i don't ahve the bandwidth. But lots of people have tried it before, so there should be plenty on google - mirroring a repository to a external hd or somethign like that
[05:03] <Jack_Sparrow> degrit: Here is how I have my shortcuts  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36575/
[05:03] <GNine> ha! there r not even ops in that gutsy channel
[05:03] <iain88> danielax: yes, libapache2-mod-php is installed
[05:03] <AngryElf> anyone know why it takes 3-4 seconds to come out of my screensaver?  maybe the crappy ATI driver?
[05:03] <danielax> GNine: you need to be gusty to enter :P
[05:04] <GNine> i did penetrate the channel.
[05:04] <danielax> ah well. Time for the southern-hemispherians to sleep. Night/morning/day/evening/whatever to you all
[05:04] <degrit> Jack_Sparrow: ok but these are quick-launch shortcuts right ? I can't type for example fancy brackets with alt+0123
[05:04] <genii> __ele__: apt-mirror is best for what you are asking. If you want some custom repo with perhaps homemade or gathered useful debs, look into Falcon (from Seveas)
[05:04] <Pici> GNine: Just because there is no one opped does not mean there are no ops.
[05:04] <Jack_Sparrow> degrit: Correct... we are talking about two different things
[05:05] <__ele__> danielax: thx! maybe i just tried the wrong keywords for google;)
[05:05] <GNine> technically correct, mr picci
[05:05] <GNine> heh
[05:06] <tatters> after a recent update my second hard drive failed to mount, reading bug tracker I found a Fix  "gnome-mount --device /dev/hdb1 --mount-point store", however I after to do this each time I restart is there a way I can make it permenet?
[05:06] <genii> __ele__: FYI when I used apt-mirror here, the repo size was about 32Gb . so be prepared to wait a while if you use it.
[05:06] <iain88> ok.... so does can anyone help me with getting php files to display in http://localhost ? i have libapache2-mod-php installed
[05:06] <degrit> not being able to type brackets like this makes the comp kinda useless to me P:
[05:07] <Jowi> tatters, if it is always plugged in you can probably use the session manager.
[05:07] <Jack_Sparrow> degrit: You may be able to define another key combo to do it..
[05:07] <tatters> Jowi  it is a fixed hard drive
[05:07] <nathan> what's a good video editing software for ubuntu, with features similar to VirtualDub(Mod) ?
[05:08] <Pici> degrit: Check your keyboard preferences. It sounds like your keyboard was detected incorrectly.
[05:08] <Dex-Freudii> Dark_Rain: do you know how do I set my SSID in ubuntu?
[05:08] <tatters> so basically I save my session and it will do the mounting without any intervention?
[05:08] <Morrowyn> nathan, i havent come across something similar like virtualdub yet on linux, there is kino
[05:08] <Morrowyn> ffmpeg
[05:08] <Jowi> tatters, that's the idea. but i don't use gnome so I could be wrong. another opiton you have is to set it up in fstab
[05:08] <radek> Dark_Rain try wifi-radar
[05:09] <Jowi> !fstab | tatters
[05:09] <ubotu> tatters: 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
[05:09] <Dark_Rain> radek, was not for me
[05:09] <Dark_Rain> :)
[05:09] <Dark_Rain> was for Dex-Freudii
[05:09] <nathan> Morrowyn: cool I'll check it out; hey is it easy to replace sound with a song using that?
[05:09] <Dark_Rain> thx anyway
[05:09] <Dex-Freudii> thnx
[05:10] <degrit> Pici: any idea which of the settings is the culprit ? it worked last time I wrote some code and I haven't changed keyboard since
[05:10] <frager> iam looking fordosemu for feisty fawn 64-bit
[05:10] <Morrowyn> nathan, there is cinelerra, dunno in what state it is in
[05:10] <GNine> sometimes a mounted partition would unmount after a reboot or a log out; sometimes it does not get affected by this actions.  doesnt bother me, though. just a note.
[05:10] <radek> Dark_Rain oh, sorry :)
[05:10] <degrit> and btw the ALT key by itself works, I can use the windows' menus with it
[05:10] <__ele__> genii: thx!
[05:11] <Dark_Rain> np radek
[05:11] <Dark_Rain> :)
[05:11] <genii> __ele__: np
[05:11] <Pici> degrit: I dont have a gui session in front of me that I can check, sorry. I have a strong feeling that the setting you are looking for is in there.
[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Is gksudo thunar or pcman any less dangerous that gksudo nautilus.. they are a bit lighter?
[05:12] <Pici> Jack_Sparrow: The only reason its dangerous is because you are root.
[05:12] <Morrowyn> nathan there is avidemux you might wanna check
[05:12] <nathan> Morrowyn: k thanks again
[05:12] <Gilbear> #quit
[05:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Pici: I thought it was also because nautilus was bloaty and more prone to crash
[05:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Pici: I do like the fact that when running thunar as root it comes up with a warning header in red.. nice touch
[05:15] <Dex-Freudii> could anyone help on configuring my wifi-radar for ad-hoc connections?
[05:16] <eyec0n> wow, todays update for 7.10 is only 26 megs... suprising
[05:16] <Pici> Jack_Sparrow: You can run the gnome theming application using sudo to set a distinct theme for your sudo'ed applications if you want as well.
[05:16] <Dex-Freudii> (acknowledgments go to Dark_Rain and radek)
[05:17] <radek> pls, does anybody know a program which allow pasting frequently phrases, such as e-mails addresses, user names etc.?
[05:17] <DrFrasierCrane> hey I get IO errors in linux with certain dvd media, but it's read without errors in Windows - even in Windows XP that I''m running inside VirtualBox in Ubuntu

[05:18] <pibe86> foro another ubuntu*
[05:18] <User409> it may be using an other read speed with vbox
[05:19] <Morrowyn> pibe86 you need to bridge the two nics, i guess
[05:19] <pibe86> User409: vbox? si it a software?
[05:19] <dyrne> pibe86: i believe the firestarter frontend to iptables can do this
[05:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Pici: How do I kill the terminal window behind an app I run as sudo.. isnt there an extension I can add
[05:19] <pibe86> Morrowyn:  qhat is nics?
[05:20] <pibe86> what*
[05:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Network interface card
[05:20] <Dex-Freudii> could anyone help on configuring my wifi-radar for ad-hoc connections?

[05:20] <pibe86> ok

[05:22] <br25> damn not here
[05:22] <dyrne> Jack_Sparrow: if you plan to leave term open just gksu thunar&  but if you wanna close the term after thunar is opened you need to use nohup gksu thunar&   thats the only way i know
[05:23] <Morrowyn> but maybe there is a tool/gui frontend to do it for you
[05:23] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks

[05:29] <eyec0n> theres a hundred or so multi-protocol clients, find one.
[05:29] <Pici> shdt: There are gdm themes on gnome-look.org
[05:29] <tck> snooker, or you can use pidgin (successor to gaim)
[05:30] <kkathman> pidgin isnt (hasnt been) available in the repos tho :(

[05:37] <Frogzoo> eyec0n: plz don't discuss gutsy here - peeps will do something silly
[05:37] <bruenig> degrit, iirc alt characters don't work like that, you need to use the character map
[05:37] <ootm> Avec, pasting that link into a browser shows 404
[05:37] <Mba7eth> I have installed tftp server on my box .... and now i tell my router to copy come files their but my box is refuseing ... anyone knows why?
[05:37] <SpudDogg> is it normal that glxgears gets 10,000+ FPS, but maxes my processor out at 100%?
[05:38] <bruenig> 10,000 fps is not normal I am pretty sure
[05:38] <loa_dude> greetings.  has anyone successfully used S/MIME with evolution ?
[05:38] <ootm> Avec, you could replace the http://gr.  with http://gb.  that will work
[05:38] <Pici> SpudDogg: glxgears is not a benchmark
[05:38] <degrit> bruenig: please explain ? (of course I mean typing that sequence to obtain a bracket)
[05:38] <Frogzoo> Mba7eth: make /var/lib/tftpboot/ mode 777 & the files mode 777
[05:38] <tatters> eyec0n: strangely upgrading gives entirly different problems than a clean install,my touchpad does not work on upgrade but does on clean install of later release
[05:38] <xazo> Mba7eth, you need to allow anonymous access to your share to upload TFTP router config
[05:38] <eyec0n> wtf
[05:38] <SpudDogg> Pici, i know that, but i was just wondering if it's normal to max out my CPU?
[05:38] <eyec0n> ok i've had no problems at all
[05:38] <bruenig> degrit, isn't there a character map in the menus?
[05:38] <degrit> bruenig: there sure is
[05:39] <SpudDogg> bruenig, not enough or too much?

[05:39] <gustavo> can anyone help?
[05:39] <bruenig> SpudDogg, seems a bit high
[05:39] <eyec0n> tatters, thats odd
[05:39] <degrit> bruenig: it's hard to believe though that linux developers must copy text from the character map everytime they write an IF :)
[05:39] <youknowme> spuddogg, how fast is your CPU? do you have 3d on your grphx card?
[05:39] <Avec> ootm: in sources.list ?
[05:39] <bruenig> degrit, there are brackets on most keyboards
[05:39] <eyec0n> Frogzoo, why cant I talk about a release... this is an ubuntu channel  right... Is this the redhat channel? No, gimmie a break
[05:40] <degrit> bruenig: besides, it worked last time I used it, and I haven't changed the keyboard configuration (at least not knowingly) since
[05:40] <SpudDogg> youknowme, its a Athlon 4000+ running at 2.4Ghz, with a Radeon X850XT
[05:40] <ootm> Avec, rename your sources.list to sources.list.old
[05:40] <tatters> theres a bluetooth bug in tribe 5 which fails to go away yet a upgrade from tribe 3 and the bug dissapears
[05:40] <Mba7eth> xazo : how can i do that?
[05:40] <ootm> Avec, then paste this into a new sources.list http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36577/
[05:40] <degrit> bruenig: on my keyboard I have round and square brackets, to do the fancy ones I need alt+0123 and alt+0125
[05:40] <ootm> Avec, thats my sources.list - runs off the uk servers

[05:41] <youknowme> spuddogg, so your card is ATI? Do you have the 3d drivers installed or did you just leave it stock from when you installed?
[05:41] <leetcharmer> hihi :D
[05:41] <bruenig> SpudDogg, that is more impressive than what I have going here, but I am at 788 fps
[05:41] <SpudDogg> youknowme, no, i installed the ati driver for it

[05:45] <Dr_willis> or was it fixmbr ?
[05:45] <SpudDogg> youknowme, im interested to find out too.  im installing 3dmark via wine-doors now, but it probably wont work
[05:45] <Meyvn> dyrne: thank you
[05:45] <Tominator> Does anybody know, whether there ist a good gnome implementation of a speech recognition software (e.g. sphinx) for dictating to Open Office for example?

[05:47] <Keule|On> does anyone know if beryl is working on ubuntustudio as well as on the normal ubuntu?!
[05:47] <SpudDogg> youknowme, this is interesting http://www.desktoplinux.com/news/NS6395384305.html
[05:47] <Roham> When I drag a text-object from e.g. firefox to another window , X hangs and it restarts back to the login page... in the sys log it says that gdm_slave_xioerror_hanler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0
[05:47] <Roham> what should I do
[05:47] <youknowme> spuddogg, wait... then how did youi know you were getting 10,000fps?
[05:47] <SpudDogg> when you run glxgears via terminal, it will tell you the output in 5 sec increments
[05:48] <SpudDogg> youknowme: when you run glxgears via terminal, it will tell you the output in 5 sec increments
[05:48] <Meyvn> dyrne: I can't do that since I can't get it installed, I guess I'll have to make a GRUB rescue disk?
[05:49] <madrazr> hi all
[05:49] <dyrne> Meyvn: it depends on what you want to do. are you looking to get rid of all linux and just back to windows?
[05:50] <dyrne> Meyvn: or fix grub

[05:50] <madrazr> httpd is not running on my system, can some one tell me how to run it?? Its not present in /etc/init.d/ directory also
[05:50] <mike3_> hey guys, is there a good tutorial on how to setup mirroring (raid 1) on Ubuntu?
[05:50] <youknowme> spuddogg, see, I didn't know that. Pretty cool, but I see no reason for it to max out your cpu. I mean, I get 2133 FPS with it and I only use les then half of CPU. weird.
[05:50] <madrazr> can some one tell me how to start it
[05:50] <dyrne> Meyvn: the installer is failing too?
[05:50] <eyec0n> someone email me a doobie
[05:50] <Meyvn> dyrne: which has Vista on it and previously OpenSuse, I deleted the OpenSuse partition
[05:50] <Meyvn> dyrne: yes
[05:50] <Morrowyn> madrazr  sudo /etc/init.d/apache start i believe
[05:51] <dyrne> Meyvn: what is the prob with installer? just blank screen or what
[05:51] <Meyvn> dyrne: it drops me into a terminal Busy Box 1.3 (initramfs)
[05:51] <bytech> Does anybody have any suggestions on a program for making letterheads and business cards that works with Ubuntu and Freespire?? I am looking for a program comparable to Print Shop Deluxe.
[05:51] <dyrne> Meyvn: easisest thing may be to use alternate install cd available on ubuntu.com
[05:51] <madrazr> Morrowyn: that fails saying some error "httpd (no pid file) not running"
[05:51] <Meyvn> dyrne: it says it can't access tty
[05:51] <SpudDogg> youknowme, i booted into "the other operating system" just to see if it does the same thing there, and it does.  (using ATITool's equivalent of glxgears)
[05:52] <madrazr> Morrowyn: it also says "no listening sockets available, shutting down Unable to open logs"
[05:52] <Ornedan> What exactly is the /dev/mapper directory?
[05:52] <minimec> hi folks. Can anyone tell me where I can select some bigger font for my evolution mail prints. The mails are printed in a real ugly way.
[05:52] <Morrowyn> madrazr have a look in the apache logs, maybe you apache.conf has a typo in it somewhere
[05:53] <youknowme> spuddogg, well then I GUESS it must be somewhat normal then. I know linux isn't all that good at utilizing power efficiently.  But if it does the same in "the other OS" then it must be...
[05:54] <Morrowyn> 10 cd's left to rip.... :-)
[05:54] <minimec> one mail left to print :-(

[05:55] <heathen> can someone please help me?
[05:55] <server24> Pici what ???
[05:55] <madrazr> Morrowyn: that file is empty
[05:55] <Morrowyn> heathen, maybe, depends on your problem
[05:55] <Meyvn> dyrne: thanks a bunch

[05:56] <Dr4k3> Hello, after the installation of ubuntu ( in text mod, the live doesn't work ), I got an error 21 GRUB :s
[05:57] <Morrowyn> madrazr, thats a pity. you might want to check if you have something else listening on your http port
[05:57] <heathen> i don't even get to the live desktop, morrowyn. could it be that i need drivers for the hardware?
[05:58] <Morrowyn> madrazr  netstat -an | grep LIS  and see if your port is in the list if so, that could be the problem
[05:58] <Ornedan> heathen: Try booting with noapic
[05:58] <minimec> heathen: Looks like your graphics card makes some problems. Try a Knoppix live CD. Then have a look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf (maybe copy it on a stick) ;)
[05:59] <jamyskis> hi all...does anyone know what might cause the alt-tab app switcher to stop working? i was playing around with compiz fusion and have now uninstalled it but alt+tab doesn't work now. im guessing its something in gconf but im not sure...
[05:59] <Morrowyn> heathen, you might want to use different vga options when booting on a laptop i always used vga=771 option, but yours might be different
[05:59] <heathen> oh, how i miss pure debian
[05:59] <drama1981> theres also vesa and vga=normal (these may help)
[05:59] <Keule|On> is here someone wanna answer to my questions.....? and please... dont tell me i should tell the question.... i did it!
[05:59] <heathen> thanks alot morrowyn
[06:00] <minimec> heathen: There are always some pros and cons. I also use both distributions.
[06:00] <heathen> i'll see if that works. i thought i might have been driver issues, but i tore through all the docs
[06:00] <jamyskis> Keule|On: for my sake you're going to have to repeat your question because i wasnt here when you wrote it
[06:01] <heathen> yeah. that's alright. my next big ( or little if you want ) is putting DSL on a stick
[06:01] <Keule|On> is there a significant difference between ubuntu and ubuntustudio - that makes it difficult to use beryl?
[06:01] <heathen> and then it's on to dual booting with XP
[06:01] <Keule|On> and i have a nVidia card... Go 6600
[06:02] <blademonkey> test
[06:02] <Morrowyn> Keule|On dunno, what's the difference between ubuntu and ubuntustudio in the first place?
[06:02] <jamyskis> Keule|On: i think studio uses a low-latency kernel by default if memory serves, although i dont think that would make a difference
[06:02] <jamyskis> Keule|On: other than that the only differences are the design and the preinstalled packages
[06:03] <eyec0n> fuck. Flash files alone are gonna drive me back to windows
[06:03] <Keule|On> ok that was my thought too jamyskis
[06:03] <Howitzer> Hiya all
[06:03] <Morrowyn> Keule|On, i'd try it, as long as you have the proper nv drivers installed, i don't think it will pose a big problem then
[06:03] <Pici> !ohmy | eyec0n
[06:03] <ubotu> eyec0n: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:03] <UrbenLegend> eyec0n: why? there flash 9 for linux?
[06:03] <eyec0n> this is ridiculous. Crash crash crash and more crach
[06:03] <jamyskis> anyone any thoughts on my question about the app switcher
[06:03] <jamyskis> ?
[06:03] <eyec0n> because all flash does on linux is crash
[06:04] <Ornedan> Keule|On: Have you tried recent Compiz versions instead of Beryl? Beryl merged back with them a while back
[06:04] <bk__> hi ,i have a mysql server on a ubuntu lamp server and i can only create a database as root.
[06:04] <Keule|On> Morrowyn: do you think? i installed it and i have often black windows
[06:04] <UrbenLegend> eyec0n: what version of flash do you have and what site are you visiting?
[06:04] <Pici> eyec0n: You could try using gnash instead of flash.
[06:04] <eyec0n> youtube, and the newest one
[06:04] <bk__> what do i do to make normal users able to create databases
[06:04] <UrbenLegend> pici: gnash is a very poor substitute imo
[06:04] <Keule|On> do you have a packet of compiz?
[06:04] <heathen> eyecon: i've never had it crash on my systems. gat any error reports?
[06:04] <RAdams> Kuele|On: the new compiz is much more stable than the old beryl versions
[06:04] <Keule|On> compiz fusion.... Ornedan
[06:04] <jamyskis> Keule|On: Thats a bug from an old beryl release...update your nvidia drivers and upgrade to compiz fusion
[06:04] <Pici> UrbenLegend: imo too, but I dont think it crashes.
[06:04] <eyec0n> its a common problem with flash video on linux i've already researched the hell out of it
[06:04] <UrbenLegend> eyec0n: does it crash on viewing, or crashes after a while?
[06:04] <eyec0n> it switchs
[06:05] <Morrowyn> bk__ let them use ooo - calc ;-)
[06:05] <RAdams> eyec0n, have you tried gnash?
[06:05] <Anlar> eyec0n: never crashed for me. everything has worked
[06:05] <UrbenLegend> eyec0n: there have reports that increasing the cache of firefox will stabilize it, although i have never had troubles with flash myself
[06:05] <bk__> Morrowyn: ....
[06:05] <eyec0n> nope, from what i've heard everyone says gnash is worse.
[06:05] <Ornedan> Keule|On: Sorry, no. However, I think someone did maintain Ubuntu packages. At least, used to
[06:06] <Keule|On> from synaptic ? jamyskis
[06:06] <minimec> eyec0n: I cannot confirm that. The new flash does quiet good, even on a old PIII 800 with feisty. No crashes.
[06:06] <Morrowyn> bk__, j/k i'd go for phpmyadmin if you use mysql that is
[06:06] <jamyskis> Keule|On: there are two repositories floating around...one for compiz fusion and one for bleeding edge nvidia drivers
[06:06] <UrbenLegend> eyec0n: which version of flash are you using?
[06:06] <bk__> Morrowyn: i have phpmyadmin and webmin
[06:06] <eyec0n> hm. well there seems to be thousands upon thousands of links of people having the same problem. Not really ubuntu related I guess
[06:06] <Ornedan> Keule|On: http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=1012 <- Looks like the repos mentioned on this thread might help
[06:06] <kbrosnan> eyec0n: you should check to see if you have more than one version of flash installed and the flash that is install is the most up to date version
[06:06] <bk__> Morrowyn: but the problem is that nromal users cant creatate new databases, just root
[06:06] <jamyskis> Keule|On: alternatively you can update the nvidia drivers by downloading them from the nvidia site and installing them yourself - its not all that difficult
[06:07] <eyec0n> kbro, thats one of the first things I did, that doesn't matter
[06:07] <Morrowyn> bk__, you need to give them privileges to create databases, check the mysql manual on how to do that
[06:07] <RAdams> What is the name of the ubuntu offtopic channel?
[06:07] <Keule|On> thanks! i do it - when my firefox will work again :)
[06:07] <eyec0n> the only explination i've found is on a thread in the konquorer forums and they say its a problem with flash
[06:07] <danielronin> is ikonia here?
[06:07] <kbrosnan> eyec0n: do you know if you are using adobe flash or gpl flash (gnash)
[06:07] <ikonia> yes
[06:08] <ikonia> just turned my screen back on
[06:08] <Keule|On> that was great help thanx so far!
[06:08] <WaxyFresh> i want to host my own website,what package do i need to install for such a thing
[06:08] <jamyskis> RAdams: #ubuntu-offtopic *gg*
[06:08] <ikonia> perect timing
[06:08] <UrbenLegend> eyec0n: try increasing the cache and see how far that gets you
[06:08] <elYase> hello i want to reinstall Ubuntu in a new fresh instalation , any good guide or advices to keep all my data and settings?
[06:08] <danielronin> ikonia, i just wated to let know you know that i finall fixed my boot issues
[06:08] <RAdams> jamyskis: lol... how can I not remember that?
[06:08] <ikonia> danielronin fantastic,  can you explain how ?
[06:08] <jamyskis> RAdams: too obvious *gg*
[06:08] <Anlar> eyec0n: I've nearly ever seen any problems.. but they must be related to kde/konqueror then. gnome is once more superior as usual :)

[06:08] <dyrne> elYase: you can move /home to a sep partition. that is a good idea to do anywhat
[06:08] <dyrne> anyway
[06:09] <danielronin> i had to mount the drive after creating a temp dir, and edit menu.lst with vim
[06:09] <danielronin> i guess what we were doing to install GUB clean was still using my edited settings
[06:09] <minimec> elYase: That should be quiet simple. Use the same /home Partition (without Formatting it ;-) ) and copy /etc on a stick.
[06:09] <eyec0n> anlar, i'm on gnome. I'm saying the people on that board were the only ones to give a good answer, it applies with flash/mozilla (mozilla, firefox, konq, etc)
[06:09] <heathen> Morrowyn: i'm having issues. how do i find wich vga option to use?
[06:09] <elYase> minimec, what about apt archive?

[06:11] <ikonia> danielronin no problem, I thought we where using hd0,4 and hd0,5 yesterday and you where still having problems
[06:11] <UrbenLegend> eyec0n: did you try increasing the cache yet?
[06:11] <Rosiel> anyone here who get an GeForce 8600GT with the nvidia-glx-new running?
[06:11] <Ornedan> How do I create new PVs in LVM? 'pvcreate /dev/hda4' fails with error message 'Failed to write physical volume "/dev/hda4"'
[06:11] <eyec0n> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=flash+video+mozilla+crash&btnG=Search
[06:11] <minimec> elYase: The apt configuration is in /etc/apt. The deb files are in /var.
[06:11] <ikonia> Ornedan does hda4 exist ?
[06:11] <eyec0n> urbenlegend, i'm gonna try that right now
[06:11] <Ornedan> ikonia: Yes
[06:11] <ikonia> Ornedan show me ls -la /dev/hda4
[06:11] <Anlar> eyec0n: have you caught any error when running ie. firefox from terminal and getting it to crash?
[06:12] <danielronin> well, what we were doing wasn't really changing GRUB i think
[06:12] <danielronin> possibly bc i had already made changes or maybe because the menu.lst~ is with the original settings is saved beside it
[06:12] <Morrowyn> heathen, uhm, can't remember how i found that out. Did you try vga=771 when asked to install ubuntu to disk (press f6 iirc)
[06:12] <danielronin> but your advice fixed it
[06:12] <minimec> elYase: I fyou have a good internet connection download the debs again.
[06:12] <ikonia> danielronin well, I'm pleased
[06:12] <Ornedan> ikonia: brw-rw---- 1 root disk 3, 4 2007-09-06 18:48 /dev/hda4
[06:12] <danielronin> i just had to manually edit menu.lst with vi
[06:12] <Pici> SpudDogg: There is a #winehq channel that you might get a better response from.
[06:12] <eyec0n> nope, it just closes
[06:12] <SpudDogg> Pici: cool, thanks
[06:12] <heathen> i think it's the default. let me check
[06:12] <ikonia> Ornedan: and you're doing "sudo pvcreate /dev/hda4"
[06:12] <Anlar> eyec0n: most of those links do not have anything to do with any relevant issue..
[06:12] <eyec0n> errr, n/m
[06:12] <dyrne> heathen: occationally ive had to use the hex value like vga=0x317 or somesuch
[06:12] <UrbenLegend> eyec0n: you've uninstalled libflash0c2?
[06:12] <jshriver> good afternoon everyone
[06:13] <Ornedan> ikonia: root@Utumno:~# pvcreate /dev/hda4
[06:13] <eyec0n> I never installed it...
[06:13] <jshriver> How can you reinstall grub using the live cd?
[06:13] <elYase> minimec, will there be a problem if i copy my /etc folder, then reinstall Ubuntu, an then copy back /etc? because there will be configurations files without the corresponding packages
[06:13] <ikonia> Ornedan ughhh your root
[06:13] <heathen> great...how i love hex values....
[06:13] <Ornedan> ikonia: Only for maintenance
[06:13] <UrbenLegend> check if it is installed
[06:13] <ikonia> Ornedan: lets have a look at fdisk -l /dev/hda
[06:13] <heathen> thanks morrowyn
[06:13] <UrbenLegend> eyecon: you never now
[06:13] <Morrowyn> heathen did it work?
[06:14] <danielronin> ikonia: do you think if i set up another ext3 partition in the freespace, will it be on the partition table before my kubuntu root, requiring more edits
[06:14] <hc-> Hello. I want to use Apache2 with SSL, without running the 'apache2-ssl-certificate'-commando. Does anyone here have a good howto guide?
[06:14] <Morrowyn> np heathen
[06:14] <hc-> ??SSL
[06:14] <Jack_Sparrow> danielronin: yes
[06:14] <wd1> the contents of my /tmp are not being flushed fully at reboot, is there any way i can change this?
[06:14] <heathen> hang on. it's trying to load
[06:14] <hc-> Hm.. What's the bots trigger?
[06:14] <SlimeyPete> !
[06:14] <ikonia> danielronin if your only free space is before, then yes, however you can use gparted to move partitions around, to a limit, so if you move the data around so that free space is hafter sda5 - you'll be fine

[06:15] <eyec0n> urben, you know how to change cache size in gran paradiso?
[06:15] <minimec> elYase: Well, that's true, but normally that shouldn't be a big problem. They don't take much space.
[06:15] <heathen> grrrrr.....
[06:15] <UrbenLegend> eyec0n: preferences->advanced->network
[06:15] <heathen> where's my baseball bat....
[06:15] <eyec0n> drrrr... didn't see the tabs :D
[06:16] <heathen> nope. doesn't seem to work
[06:16] <Morrowyn> what kind of laptop do you have heathen?
[06:16] <heathen> it hung again.
[06:16] <drama1981> heathen: what exactly is happening? black screen? error?
[06:16] <eyec0n> ok, change it from 50 to 200megs i'll see if that does anything
[06:16] <heathen> IBM ThinkPad I-Series
[06:16] <Frogzoo> anyone figured out how to set the irq for the fglrx driver?
[06:16] <chrisz2> http://palagyik.act4trees.com/
[06:16] <afterlife> Someone's know an Ide for C/C++ )
[06:16] <heathen> you need the dmesg output?
[06:16] <eyec0n> most of the files I watch are 20-40megs so I assume that fills up the cache quickly?
[06:16] <elYase> minimec, the thing is that for example xorg.conf will be configured for NVidia, if i have not installed the drivers then xorg.conf will be wrong, so i think that will bring me many problems
[06:16] <UrbenLegend> afterlife: i use codeblocks
[06:16] <elYase> minimec, dont you agree?
[06:17] <afterlife> it is on repository ?
[06:17] <jesson> help how do i get higher screen resolution ??
[06:17] <drama1981> heathen:  sata or ide drives? i ran into a similar prob due to a buggy ide controller
[06:17] <afterlife> UrbenLegend it is on repository ?
[06:17] <heathen> drama1981: no, it goes to the faux xp boot screen, works for a cuople seconds and then hangs while loading the live desktop
[06:17] <UrbenLegend> afterlife: no, you have to download from the site and install the debs yourself, although on the forums there are some repos from other people
[06:18] <heathen> ide, i think.
[06:18] <afterlife> Ok thanks UrbenLegend
[06:18] <drama1981> try ide=nodma
[06:18] <dyrne> !fixrex | jesson
[06:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fixrex - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:18] <dyrne> !fixrex | jesson
[06:18] <dyrne> lol
[06:18] <heathen> hmmm. thanks. i hadn't actually thought of that.
[06:18] <UrbenLegend> eyec0n: actually, it doesn't fill up quickly cuz firefox does do a lot of management over it
[06:18] <dyrne> jesson: what is your card? ati ? nvidia? intel?
[06:18] <eyec0n> Also, http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:unofficial&hs=Hbe&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=youtube+mozilla+crash&spell=1 gives more accurate results that relate to my issue
[06:18] <drama1981> it may work but it will be rather slow
[06:19] <minimec> elYase: Well if you put the /etc back on the same machine, I don't understand your problem. If your change the machine, then you probably want to change the /etc/X11 and use the new one. That's true.
[06:19] <Jack_Sparrow> !res

[06:19] <MekApelsin> msg ubotu bla
[06:19] <heathen> yeah, it might be.
[06:19] <jesson> nvidia
[06:19] <heathen> oh well, at least it's got a decent processor
[06:20] <jesson> im using nvidia and when i go to preference > resolution i can only choose 3 resolution in it, but i want a higher reso.. how do i do that?
[06:20] <UrbenLegend> eyecon: the first links are related to non adobe flash plugins
[06:20] <dyrne> jesson: what model? is it like  a 6600 or really new or what?
[06:20] <jesson> new
[06:20] <eyec0n> dont click the first link :p
[06:20] <jesson> its new
[06:20] <drama1981> i had to use that switch once but it was really slow due to the fact the the hdd ran in pio mode as opposed to dma
[06:20] <jesson> on xp i had a wide variety if resolution to choose from
[06:20] <minimec> elYase: Or... before changing /etc install the restricted drivers on your machine to be shure that the packages are installes.
[06:20] <UrbenLegend> eyecon: haha, okay go to synaptic, search for flash, and make sure you only have flashplugin-nonfree installed, just do that for me okay?
[06:20] <heathen> right. i've missed my linux.
[06:21] <heathen> got stuck working in xp for about six months.
[06:21] <eyec0n> alright, i'm also seeing if I find anything in here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=340811
[06:21] <dyrne> jesson: pasting this into a terminal may work: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new; sudo nvidia-xconfig; sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart    <-- if this breaks something use the command 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and choose vesa driver and default for other questions
[06:21] <drama1981> i hate xp but i have one xp and one ubuntu box as my parents refuse to learn linux
[06:21] <elYase> minimec, i can do that with video drivers but i dont know if im going to have similar problems with other configuration files
[06:21] <ikonia> drama1981 this is a support channel
[06:22] <Anlar> ikonia: this is a support channel, not whining channel
[06:22] <ikonia> Anlar do'nt be pedantic.
[06:22] <heathen> yeah, well if you know how to dd this dsl iso to a flashdrive, that would be awesome.
[06:22] <Py7h0n> Is this a right place to ask a few questions about hardware probs, os shall I go somewhere else?
[06:23] <minimec> elYase: As I said. I don't think so, but even then rename the new /etc to /etc-new, as backup.
[06:23] <dyrne> jesson: vesa or nv driver nv may be better
[06:23] <elYase> im thinking to install Gutsy, where can i read opinions about the current state?
[06:23] <ikonia> Py7h0n hardware problems with ubuntu - or hardware problems
[06:23] <MekApelsin> Py7h0n: ask away, if someone knows they will try to answer, hopefully
[06:23] <ikonia> elYase its in alpha, some problems alrady
[06:23] <dyrne> jesson: those only support 2d though the nvidia driver is only real option for 3d
[06:23] <Py7h0n> IN ubuntu.
[06:23] <jesson> hmm no i think i remember when i installed my ubuntu it asked me  to choose resolution on the list and i only choose 3 of it
[06:23] <eyec0n> elYase, i've been using it for a little over a month. Haven't found anything wrong with it, although its still alpha
[06:24] <elYase> eyec0n, you have a standard machine?
[06:24] <eyec0n> elYase, only thing that gets old is downloading 100+ megs worth of updates everyday
[06:24] <diatribe> elYase: been using it for about 5 months it works
[06:24] <heathen> got any other ideas morrowyn?
[06:24] <diatribe> haha yes

[06:24] <Py7h0n> Well, problem is with SATA DVD burner failing to write properly.
[06:24] <eyec0n> elYase, Inspiron B130 laptop
[06:24] <ikonia> it doesn't "work" its in alpha, hardware and software configuration issues will effect different people in different ways
[06:24] <Dr_willis> Hmm. ive yet to SEE a Sata DVD/CD/Burner..
[06:24] <Py7h0n> I tracked this down to HAL interfering with write process.
[06:24] <Morrowyn> heathen, sorry, you might wanna search online if someone else had the same problem as you have
[06:24] <diatribe> ikonia: well it "works" for me
[06:25] <ikonia> !worksforme
[06:25] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/
[06:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Dr_willis: I have one
[06:25] <ERGLupin> im having a problem where when in games I cant control the volume of the PC Im not sure where the problem lies but would like to figure it out
[06:25] <diatribe> he asked for an opinion
[06:25] <diatribe> if you scroll back
[06:25] <Dr_willis> Jack_Sparrow,  it just seems weird. they have taken so long to get 'common'
[06:25] <dyrne> jesson: i dont really know gnome so i tend to do this manually: gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf  if you scroll to near the bottom it will list res for depth 24 from left (greatest) to right you can add em there and save then alt-ctrl-backspace to restart x but if youre not using nvidia and have a new card id recommend it
[06:25] <heathen> yeah, i suppose i'll go find my baseball bat and release some of this tension and anger
[06:25] <ikonia> diatribe I know, but "works for me" has little value
[06:25] <elYase> diatribe, so you havent had any serious issue?
[06:25] <Py7h0n> I disabled HAL for the drive and everything works OK, but I lost disk auto-detection.
[06:25] <Dr_willis> Jack_Sparrow,  about every new pc these days have sata hd's - but even my new machine i just bouight has ide dvdburner.
[06:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Dr_willis: Works like a charm but was a bit pricy..
[06:26] <jesson> im making a basic script on python and when i try to run it on terminal i get this error  IndentationError:
[06:26] <diatribe> elYase: no problems on mine, acer aspire laptop with sis chipset
[06:26] <Py7h0n> I wonder if it is problem on Linux-side or on drive side...
[06:26] <Morrowyn> have fun with that heathen
[06:26] <Dr_willis> Jack_Sparrow,  yea guess thats the reason.. wonder why they are more $$$.
[06:26] <heathen> oh, i will
[06:26] <Morrowyn> :-)
[06:26] <drama1981> Jack_Sparrow:  pricy? my sata dvd burner was only like 50 bucks
[06:26] <UpgradeBoy> jesson: why on earth would you ask that here as opposed to python irc channel?
[06:26] <elYase> diatribe, eyec0n ,ok thanks ill installit
[06:26] <Anlar> Dr_willis: laptops are sata all the way unless if you buy b-quality crap.. and perhaps some desktop ide drives as well, but it will take time until the price tips the type
[06:26] <Py7h0n> jesson: Verify you don't mix spaces and tabs.
[06:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Dr_willis: It was partly due to the brand...
[06:26] <heathen> i've got two of the exact laptops, and neither wants to take feisty
[06:26] <diatribe> odd
[06:27] <ikonia> heathen define "take fesity"
[06:27] <ERGLupin> hencho en mexico?
[06:27] <jesson> ok let me paste the script ph7hon
[06:27] <eyec0n> heathen, same as me?
[06:27] <wapa> k  ases
[06:27] <heathen> can't install feisty on my lappy
[06:27] <youknowm1> test
[06:27] <wapa> k  ases
[06:27] <ERGLupin> im having a problem where when in games I cant control the volume of the PC Im not sure where the problem lies but would like to figure it out
[06:27] <diatribe> wellif feisty wont install I am not sure trying to install gutsy would make it work
[06:27] <Dr_willis> Jack_Sparrow,  of course WHEN will the cost of DL-Media drop. :)
[06:27] <heathen> huh, eyec0n?
[06:27] <chazco> Hi - is it possible to reinstall Ubuntu without losing my data on the partition?
[06:27] <elYase> diatribe, eyec0n ,well everything is programed over Feisty, i mean in the main things no?
[06:27] <ERGLupin> Dr_willis I think DL is pretty cheap now
[06:27] <eyec0n> what kind of laptop do you have?
[06:27] <jesson> 'x' = raw_input('type a number: ') thats the line where i get error phy7on and also is there an irc python channel ??
[06:27] <Enselic> diatribe: why not? gutsy have newer software
[06:27] <Mba7eth> hi all
[06:27] <diatribe> there are new packages added, packages removed, other changes
[06:27] <heathen> ibm thinkpad i-series
[06:28] <Enselic> jesson: #python
[06:28] <diatribe> but as was stated it is not a stable reloease as yet
[06:28] <Dr_willis> ERGLupin,  last i looked it was like 10x the cost of single layer. Whats the Per $ for a single DL disk in your area?
[06:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Dr_willis: Brand is plextor... DVD-r are very reasonable.. I buy in spindles of 100
[06:28] <eyec0n> elYase, my experiance with gutsy has been awesome. I've had no errors with it yet
[06:28] <diatribe> I mean if you want to try then I won't tell you not too, nothing ventured nothing gained
[06:28] <bluefox83> chazco, yeah, you'd need the alternate installer cd, then just skip to the reinstallation part, or use the repair function
[06:28] <jesson> 'x' = raw_input('type a number: ') any error on that?
[06:28] <Mba7eth> if i have a tftp server where i can get file from it but can't put files in it ? anyknow knows the problem
[06:28] <ERGLupin> i get mine from www.supermediastore.com typically
[06:28] <elYase> diatribe, yea but i mean inestabilities should come only in the new packages no'
[06:28] <Dr_willis> Jack_Sparrow,  how about the DVD-DL disks :)
[06:28] <diatribe> new/upgraded
[06:28] <chazco> Ah, thanks bluefox83... will try to borrow a good connection and download it
[06:28] <Enselic> Mba7eth: most likely a configuration problem of the ftp server
[06:28] <ERGLupin> about $1.50 a disc
[06:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Dr_willis: What is dvd-dl ?
[06:29] <Enselic> Mba7eth: make sure to configure it so that users get write access
[06:29] <ERGLupin> which is pretty pricey compared to SL
[06:29] <drama1981> dual layer
[06:29] <Dr_willis> Jack_Sparrow,  Dual Layer.
[06:29] <diatribe> if you glance over the gutsy forums you will be able to tell more
[06:29] <Py7h0n> jesson: line seems OK, but python is picky on intendation - it uses it as code-blocks guide.
[06:29] <bluefox83> Jack_Sparrow, dual layer
[06:29] <Jack_Sparrow> dual layer duh
[06:29] <ERGLupin> but it has come down a lot since the 360 got hacked
[06:29] <Mba7eth> Enselic : thanks but how to do that ?
[06:29] <elYase> diatribe, yea but in that case wont be more unsafe than a Feisty upgrade dont you think
[06:29] <Dr_willis> ERGLupin,  Heh - the price of DL has droped since 360 got hacked?
[06:29] <Enselic> Mba7eth: please refer to the documentation of the server
[06:29] <neverblue> morning
[06:29] <bluefox83> Py7h0n, i wrote a little python script for xchat and amarok, it's soooo freakin picky =(
[06:29] <ERGLupin> Dr_willis yeah a decent amount
[06:29] <elYase> diatribe, how do i get to the Gutsy forums?
[06:30] <Py7h0n> You should indent with spaces OR tabs, not both.
[06:30] <diatribe> well if you cant install feisty at all, then trying to install gutsy isnt exactly going to do any damage ;)
[06:30] <Dr_willis> I officially hae a whole spindle of old Linux CD/DVDs now. :)  i can wallpaper the room!
[06:30] <eyec0n> Mba, for what purpose is the tftp server for :p
[06:30] <Dr_willis> must be 200 disks.
[06:30] <diatribe> hold will link
[06:30] <ERGLupin> when I first hacked mine I had to pay about $50 for 15
[06:30] <jesson> wat do u mean? so wats wrong? i tried typin it on terminal ex. python hello.py
[06:30] <bluefox83> Dr_willis, holly shiznit!
[06:30] <Dr_willis> bluefox83,  some of them are quite old. :0
[06:30] <bluefox83> :O
[06:30] <Py7h0n> bluefox83: I use pyton daily - i take intendation as advantage, as it enforces cleaner code.
[06:30] <Anlar> my 360 stays unmodified.. as the online games are anyways the best :)
[06:30] <diatribe> elYase: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=238
[06:30] <Mba7eth> Enselic : I followed a howto but it askes for changes in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp   .... but i can't find this file any where
[06:30] <elYase> diatribe, thank you very much
[06:31] <Dr_willis> Heck i just this weekend. got an Xbox. :) 2 of them.. given to me.
[06:31] <Enselic> Mba7eth: if you want it, create it
[06:31] <bluefox83> Py7h0n, could you maybe help me fix my script?
[06:31] <ERGLupin> im having a problem where when in games I cant control the volume of the PC Im not sure where the problem lies but would like to figure it out
[06:31] <Py7h0n> bluefox83: sure, drop it on priv, I'll take a look .
[06:31] <Enselic> ERGLupin: can you change volume outside of the game?
[06:32] <dyrne> i always give my old consoles away.. gave ff7 away not too long ago. found out its worth a pretty penny these days
[06:32] <ERGLupin> Enselic yea
[06:32] <Enselic> ERGLupin: what game doesnt it work in?
[06:32] <diatribe> ERGLupin: does the game have volume controls?
[06:32] <ERGLupin> DOom 3 and Open Arena
[06:32] <ERGLupin> well Im talking about the volume buttons on my keyboard
[06:33] <Ornedan> Seems like my problem might be related to this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evms/+bug/55743 . What exactly is EVMS? And can I uninstall it without breaking anything if I'm using LVM?
[06:33] <Enselic> ERGLupin: might be that the program that interpretes the volume keypresses don't recive them when the game is running
[06:33] <diatribe> ERGLupin: that would be my guess also
[06:33] <ERGLupin> i agree
[06:33] <ERGLupin> I just want to fix it :P
[06:33] <Anlar> write a letter to the makers of the game
[06:34] <ERGLupin> maybe like edit a config file for the game to set up the game to interrupt it
[06:34] <ERGLupin> ehh not interrupt
[06:34] <ERGLupin> interpret it
[06:34] <diatribe> if you change focus from the game do they work again?
[06:34] <drama1981> ERGLupin: running fullscreen i assume. my volume keys never work when im running anything fullscreen
[06:34] <ERGLupin> dont know its full screen never tried
[06:34] <ERGLupin> damn thats ok I guess just could crank the volume before I go in and use my speakers controls
[06:35] <jesson> df
[06:35] <bluefox83> Py7h0n, heads up in pm
[06:36] <drama1981> anybody know much about networking? i need to network a ubuntu and windows box together. no router just a direct connection through a crossover cable. i use ubuntu studio and other is winxp
[06:36] <heathen> morrowyn: any clue what pnpbios is?
[06:36] <ikonia> plug and play bios
[06:36] <jesson> is there a command i can use on terminal to search for a certain directory??
[06:36] <drama1981> just need to move files and folders back and forth
[06:36] <heathen> ah. alright. so, lets try that.
[06:37] <Soup_> how do you FORCE a program to close?
[06:37] <Pici> jesson: find /dir/to/search/in -name filename
[06:37] <heathen> anyways, drama, i don't know how to do that. sorry
[06:37] <Pici> Soup_: kill program
[06:37] <drama1981> heathen:  np
[06:37] <ikonia> drama1981: ubuntu studio has its own support services, ubuntu-studio is not supported by ubuntu
[06:37] <Soup_> rguments must be process or job IDs
[06:37] <Soup_>  how do i find that?
[06:37] <ikonia> Soup_: ps
[06:37] <selinuxium> Hi All,   I have ghosted an IDE drive to a larger SATA drive. I have changed the hdaX's to sdaX's in fstab and grub. But on booting it says it cannot see /dev/sda6....  Any ideas
[06:37] <ezra> pls help. i downloaded frostwire. i cant make it work. i already downloaded and installed jre6
[06:38] <ikonia> selinuxium does /dev/sda6 exist on the disk ?
[06:38] <heathen> alright, well since i just obliterated my other lappy, i'm gonna try to install feisty on this one, so i will talk to you all later hopefully
[06:38] <drama1981> heathen: look in the bios for plug & play os. try disableing it once
[06:38] <Aminux> jrib: what graphic card do you have?
[06:38] <selinuxium> ikonia: yes, it is the boot partitino
[06:38] <selinuxium> ikonia: doh!
[06:38] <ikonia> selinuxium are you certain , have you booted from the livecd to check ?
[06:38] <selinuxium> yes
[06:39] <Pici> !samba | drama1981
[06:39] <ubotu> drama1981: 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
[06:40] <selinuxium> ikonia: ^^^
[06:40] <drama1981> ty Pici ill check that out once
[06:40] <ikonia> selinuxium so if you boot from a livecd you can see /dev/sda6 ?
[06:40] <ikonia> selinuxium its not referencing the disk via uuid in menu.lst is it ?
[06:40] <selinuxium> ikonia: yes, i can mount it and see the contents...
[06:41] <selinuxium> ikonia: nope, i have editted there as well. And it is a standard path.
[06:42] <ikonia> selinuxium something very wrong there then
[06:42] <tag> So when I mount a windows share through nautilus, and I try and navigate through it...it shows the proper top-level directory list, but when I try and open a sub folder it complains the sub folder doesn't exist and the folder disappears, then when I hit refresh - the folder comes back
[06:42] <Py7h0n> bluefox83: Soryy, but IRC ate the whole intendation :/
[06:42] <kreativefinally> hi
[06:42] <selinuxium> ikonia: yep! :) I am glad I was heading down the right path though! :)
[06:43] <ikonia> selinuxium is it grub that complains or the kernel booting
[06:43] <Flamekebab> I've got four identical WD hard drives, SATA2, 500GB each. I'm trying to setup a machine that treats the four like one, so I can then format it to have an enormous partition for storing video data
[06:43] <keymoo> hi how do i return an environment variable? echo .. something?
[06:43] <kreativefinally> hm
[06:43] <ikonia> Flamekebab thats not a create idea, you should look at softrware raid and lvm
[06:43] <Pici> keymoo: echo $ENVNAME
[06:44] <ikonia> s/create/great
[06:44] <Pici> keymoo: Where envname is the variable name
[06:44] <kreativefinally> hey
[06:44] <selinuxium> ikonia: when the kernel is booting, i see it do some acpi stuff then it waits for /dev/sda6/    then nothing and it dropsinto emergency console.
[06:44] <keymoo> pici: thanks
[06:44] <beerfan> is there something like "envy" for ati drivers?
[06:44] <Flamekebab> ikonia: I know. Sadly, trying to figure out how to do this seems to return loads of guides for doing RAID-1
[06:44] <keymoo> how do i set an environment variable?
[06:44] <ikonia> selinuxium ahhh, I bet your chipset drivers are still the old ones in /etc/modules.conf
[06:44] <kreativefinally> processor is 1 divided by the clock rate (in Hz)
[06:44] <Pici> !envy | beerfan
[06:44] <ubotu> beerfan: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[06:44] <SpudDogg> has anyone here ever ran quake 4 (linux)
[06:44] <ikonia> Flamekebab its very straight forward. What part is not clear
[06:44] <ikonia> SpudDogg yes
[06:44] <SpudDogg> ikonia: did it run nicely?
[06:45] <ikonia> SpudDogg: very
[06:45] <SpudDogg> ikonia: what are your system specs?
[06:45] <beerfan> Pici: the ATI driver in restricted manager leaves my friends video slow
[06:45] <ikonia> they where are the time (different now) and AMD FX55 an Nvidia 7900 and 2 gig of ram
[06:45] <Flamekebab> ikonia, if by very clear you mean I have to be intimately acquainted with cylinder numbers, flags and so on
[06:46] <ikonia> Flamekebab you don't need to know anything like that
[06:46] <bluefox83> Py7h0n, would you prefer i pasted to a pastebot, then gave you the link?
[06:47] <Flamekebab> ikonia, I'm just not really sure where to start. I've installed Ubuntu many times before, but this is a bit out of the usual for me, so I'm not sure what kind of guide I should be looking for
[06:47] <Flamekebab> perhaps it's ridiculously simple, I hope so!
[06:47] <ikonia> Flamekebab do you want to install onto this big disk ?
[06:47] <ikonia> Flamekebab thats not quiet so straight forwad, you have to use the server install to isntall to raid at the moment I think
[06:48] <ikonia> or the alternative cd image
[06:48] <Flamekebab> Well I'd like one big disk which I can then divide into an EXT3 partition and a massive JFS partition
[06:48] <Flamekebab> I'm planning on this being both a media server for my flat, but also a MythTV box
[06:48] <Crustacean-Bo1> Can anybody tell me where to find a good proxy?
[06:49] <Pici> !offtopic | Crustacean-Bo1
[06:50] <ubotu> Crustacean-Bo1: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:50] <erstazi> hello Pici
[06:51] <web_knows> does compiz fusion run on onboard boards? :)
[06:51] <web_knows> like a SiS savage
[06:51] <erUSUL> !info squid | Crustacean-Bo1
[06:51] <web_knows> or it only runs on 'good' boards?
[06:51] <ubotu> crustacean-bo1: squid: Internet Object Cache (WWW proxy cache). In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.5-4ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 625 kB, installed size 1600 kB
[06:51] <ikonia> web_knows: onboards are normally a little weak
[06:52] <web_knows> yeah, I agree
[06:52] <Pici> web_knows: A savage? I dont think that card supports 3d acceleration. Does it?
[06:52] <erstazi> Does anyone know if editing the .gtkrc-2.02 for foreground colors effects xchat? I changed the foreground colors for the panel and now xchat is using the same color, which is blah!
[06:52] <web_knows> Pici, not sure, need to check
[06:52] <bluefox83> web_knows, it will run on *some* onboard video chips, ones that have built in 3d acceleration
[06:52] <web_knows> while trying to run compiz
[06:52] <ikonia> web_knows: it doesn't
[06:52] <erUSUL> web_knows: intel ones work but SiS does not have a working 3d driver (not sure about Via opencrhome??)
[06:52] <web_knows> I got
[06:52] <web_knows> --
[06:52] <pupi120290> i have problem in network printing. printer does not print anything. the ipp is ipp://192.168.1.2/printers/HP_Deskjet_5740. i even added a rule to the firewall to allow connections from 192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0. what should i do?

[06:53] <web_knows> uh
[06:53] <bluefox83> erstazi, you edited your gtk theme foreground colors, and xchat is a gtk app...surely you should realize that it'll change...
[06:53] <web_knows> sorry
[06:53] <mholmberg> how do i do a clean compile with g++ ?
[06:53] <web_knows> I though 3 lines were ok
[06:53] <web_knows> but anyway
[06:53] <tag> Can anyone tell me why it would be that when I open up a windows share, the root directory list is correct...but when I try and open a sub folder I get a message saying that folder doesn't exist.  'Couldn't find "smb://..../Consumer"'
[06:53] <web_knows> I see compiz is not going to run on my board
[06:53] <erstazi> bluefox83: of course, but I thought just changing for the panel colors would be sufficient, KDE offers that, why not GNOME?
[06:53] <web_knows> it's to cheap :)
[06:53] <erUSUL> darklordveynom: "clean compile" ??
[06:53] <web_knows> too*
[06:54] <darklordveynom> where it deletes the object file
[06:54] <web_knows> but thanks giys
[06:54] <bluefox83> erstazi, because it's not kde :P
[06:54] <web_knows> guys
[06:54] <pupi120290> anyone help me? i tryed  telnet 192.168.1.2 631 but connection is refused. dont understand it.
[06:54] <bluefox83> erstazi, i don't like that feature either..i would dearly like it if my taskbar could be transparent, without my xchat window being transparent
[06:54] <ikonia> pupi120290 what is running on 631 ?
[06:54] <darklordveynom> well, what would be the standard command to compile a c++ file in g++ ?
[06:54] <Enselic> pupi120290: can you ping it?
[06:54] <erUSUL> darklordveynom: use make or delete the objects files yourself
[06:54] <Py7h0n> bluefox83: got the code, what's the problem?
[06:55] <bluefox83> pupi120290, try port 21
[06:55] <ikonia> darklordveynom: his is ubuntu support - no c++ 101
[06:55] <erUSUL> darklordveynom: g++ file.cpp
[06:55] <pupi120290> ikonia: printer port; have problems in network printing
[06:55] <ikonia> darklordveynom: there are development channels for learning
[06:55] <heathen> hello. i'm back, minus a laptop
[06:55] <erstazi> bluefox83: well thats different, I can have the panels transparent but the default foreground colors (the font colors) need change for dark backgrounds
[06:55] <ikonia> pupi120290: doesn't look like its listening then
[06:55] <bluefox83> Py7h0n, when i load it...it displays whatever is playing in amarok once every single second instead of once when the song changes
[06:55] <pupi120290> bluefox83: i tryed port 21 no answser
[06:56] <bluefox83> pupi120290, maybe nobody's home :X
[06:56] <erstazi> I do realize these are GTK issues but I thought maybe someone had some experience in giving an app a different foreground color instead of the panel
[06:56] <selinuxium> see you later all! :)
[06:56] <ikonia> erstazi thats not an issue, thats normal behaviour
[06:56] <pupi120290> 192.168.1.2 is in the network ping functions
[06:56] <ikonia> pupi120290: yes, so its on the network
[06:57] <ikonia> pupi120290: but that doesn't mean a daemon is listning on a port
[06:57] <erstazi> ikonia: I would like to think of it as an issue when you have a dark background and you cannot see the text, accessibility in mind
[06:57] <pupi120290> ikonia: short what ports should be open so that i can do network printing?
[06:57] <bluefox83> pupi120290, can you log in to 192.168.1.2 from the actual terminal? it sounds like either sshd is off or your ip isn't in the /etc/hosts.allow
[06:57] <apfel> Anyone using Samsung's X-dock dockingstation with ubuntu? Does it work?
[06:57] <ikonia> pupi120290 ??? how is the printer on the network ?
[06:58] <ikonia> pupi120290: is it connectd to a server, or a print server or something like that
[06:58] <pupi120290> the printer is connected to 192.168.1.2. i like to print from 192.168.1.3
[06:58] <ikonia> pupi120290 ok - so is 192.168.1.2 running ubuntu ?
[06:58] <Py7h0n> bluefox83: "if file is not current:" bothers me. What is "file" in this context?
[06:58] <pupi120290> yes
[06:59] <ikonia> pupi120290: ok - how are you sharing the printer, via samba or cups direct
[06:59] <pupi120290> cups i think
[06:59] <ikonia> pupi120290: what do you mean, you think. You set it up
[06:59] <bluefox83> Py7h0n, whatever is returned trigger_cb function for file
[06:59] <pupi120290> im not sure i setted it up under settings->printer
[06:59] <ikonia> pupi120290 ahh, ok
[06:59] <bluefox83> Py7h0n, i want it to return whatever is stored as the playing file
[06:59] <Kaur> Hi.
[07:00] <Kaur> I have a problem with feisty
[07:00] <Kaur> it's about brightness controll
[07:00] <Nhui> I am having a strange problem. I have compiz running on ubuntu 7.04. I update some packages and now the cube doesn't rotate when I press CTRL+ALT+RIGHT but it does when I turn it left. Someone had that probem before
[07:00] <ubu> hello,what's the name of the firefox extention manager in gutsy gibbon
[07:00] <ubu> ?
[07:00] <aesebu55> I have a GE909 game pad. The buttons work but the up/down/left/right wont work. The stuff I found using google doesn't work. Please help.
[07:00] <ikonia> ubu gusty support is in #ubuntu+1
[07:00] <ubu> ikonia, thanks
[07:01] <kbrosnan> ubu: inside firefox tools -> addons -> extensions
[07:01] <ks> how do I remove startup script in ubuntu ?
[07:01] <ikonia> ks: remove the app, or rm the script
[07:01] <Py7h0n> bluefox83: First point - "file" is a name of a function. Don't overwrite it with a variable.
[07:01] <nixgirl> hello, i'm from italy, i've installed feisty on my pc everything fine but cdrw.. :(
[07:01] <ks> ikonia no update-rc ?
[07:02] <ikonia> ks: well, thats not what you asked, you ask how to remove it
[07:02] <dfgas_> what is a good softphone to use? i am using gusty and xlite don't work
[07:02] <bluefox83> Py7h0n, shoudl i rename it to current_file?
[07:02] <pupi120290> ikonia: it is setup under cups
[07:02] <ubu> kbrosnan, yes but that can't install them via apt-get...i'll ask #ubuntu+1
[07:02] <dif>  dfgas_: you could use ekiga
[07:03] <Kaur> when I unplug or plug in my laptop the brightness level changes as it has to. The problem is that when I boot up my laptop it uses the brigtness value from the last boot and doesn't care if it is plugedi in or not. How to solve this?
[07:03] <dfgas_> dif, i want to use fwd with it, can i?
[07:03] <ks> does it matter if it's /etc/init.d/myscript.sh or  /etc/init.d/myscript ?
[07:03] <ks> also how do I debug startup errors ?
[07:04] <Py7h0n> bluefox83: Yes, for a beginning. And then - this variable is local for trigger_cb . You won't see it from autoupdate
[07:04] <int86> feisty has stoppped my CMOS clock
[07:04] <ks> i have my script working when run in terminal, but not on boot
[07:04] <dif>  dfgas_: I'm not familiar with "fwd" what is it?
[07:04] <yurimxpxman> I forget.. what's the command to send a document to the printer?
[07:04] <bluefox83> Py7h0n, can i set it to global?
[07:04] <Py7h0n> Make assignment current_file="" just after imports.
[07:05] <dfgas_> dif, freeworlddialup
[07:05] <Py7h0n> This will make this global and work as expected.
[07:06] <bluefox83> Py7h0n, how do i store that so that i can compair it to whatever is actively being played?
[07:07] <dif>  dfgas_: you shouldn't have a problem, Ekiga supports SIP and it looks like FWD uses SIP for pretty much everything they do
[07:07] <gilles> I have a problem to install the nvidia driver for my geforce 7600 gs but there is this error in the messages.log    http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36586/

[07:11] <sudobash> hey is there a reason why when i nmap -v -v -P0 a remote ubuntu machine it returns about every port it tries as open...
[07:11] <Aminux> i got a noob question
[07:11] <Aminux> how do i setup the refresh rate for Ubuntu
[07:11] <int86> I thought my mobo is fragged
[07:12] <bruenig> Aminux, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:12] <Aminux> the only refresh rates i see here are 60hz
[07:12] <ks> what exactly 'defaults' mean in update-rc ?
[07:12] <sudobash> is it security prevention or are those ports really open?
[07:12] <Aminux> i cant get higher
[07:12] <ks> is it just runlevels ?
[07:12] <Aminux> :)
[07:12] <sudobash> it tells me every port is open
[07:12] <nickrud> ks: yes
[07:13] <sudobash> hey is there a reason why when i nmap -v -v -P0 a remote ubuntu machine it returns about every port it tries as open...
[07:13] <sudobash> 7.06
[07:13] <ianm_> can anyone recommend an alternative to TrueCrypt?  something that works with all kernel versions that Ubuntu offers?
[07:13] <Aminux> for instance if i wanted to have a 1024x768 75hz generic monitor
[07:13] <Aminux> how do i do this?
[07:14] <SpudDogg> anyone know what this error means?  im trying to play quake for linux "ERROR: SDL_SetVideoMode failed: Couldn't find matching GLX visual"
[07:14] <sudobash> they must be closed cause they wont let me telnet to it
[07:14] <sudobash> need to install glx sdl libs
[07:14] <gilles> what must I do when I have  API mismatch: the client has the version 1.0-9755, but

[07:14] <urthmover> yaay linux
[07:14] <ks> nickrud what about arguments like start ?
[07:15] <ks> nickrud i've forgatten to add it
[07:15] <ks> forgotten
[07:15] <nickrud> ks: start will start up a service ; if you look at /etc/init.d/screen, you'll see a pretty clear skeleton of how it works

[07:17] <Aminux> the proprietary or the one that comes with Ubuntu?
[07:17] <nickrud> !best | Aminux
[07:17] <mortenwb> thanx!! :D

[07:17] <maynards-girl> how can i figure out how much my processor is being used.  Will free do that?
[07:17] <kitche> maynards-girl, free is for memory
[07:17] <Aminux> ok,
[07:18] <dweez> maynards-girl, use top
[07:18] <Aminux> i mean the fastest driver

[07:20] <MOTZ> how can i disable the passwort at starting from ubuntu fo wlan ?
[07:20] <node357> hello, does DRI support ATI Radeon 7000 ?
[07:20] <ks> nickrud how do I know why startup script fails on boot ?
[07:21] <node357> !dri
[07:21] <ubotu> dri is direct rendering infrastructure, a framework for allowing direct access to graphics hardware under the X Window System in a safe and efficient manner.
[07:21] <ks> nickrud works in terminal session
[07:22] <evri2> GUYS,how can i stop my GPU from SCALING?
[07:22] <r3tard> no wai
[07:22] <evri2> it runs at 100mhz but it should run at 455mhz FFS
[07:22] <nickrud> ks: you running the script from the terminal using /etc/init.d ?
[07:22] <ks> nickrud yes
[07:22] <ianm_> evri2: scaling what ?
[07:23] <nickrud> ks: then the script is probably not linked into /etc/rc2.d ; is this a new script of your own? if so, run sudo update-rc.d defaults, that will set up the links used at startup in /etc/rc*.d
[07:24] <_0_PaS_CooL> Bonjour
[07:24] <evri2> ianm_: when computer doesn't need GPU power,my GPU speed goes down 450mhz to 100mhz
[07:24] <evri2> how can i prevent that?
[07:24] <node357> maybe turning off powernowd
[07:24] <node357> only thing I can think of since im a noob
[07:25] <ks> nickrud i did that
[07:25] <wimt> Could anyone tell me why my wireless network does not connect when my laptop comes out of standby? I have to go into network and disable and then re-enable it and it works fine.
[07:25] <node357> hello, does DRI support ATI Radeon 7000 ?
[07:25] <ks> nickrud update-rc.d  mongrel.sh start 90 2 3 4 5 .
[07:25] <ianm_> evri2: that sounds like something the hardware does itself, or the driver handles, no?
[07:26] <nickrud> ks, then possibly your script is depending on something that hasn't been started yet. take a look at /etc/var/log/syslog ; if you're lucky there's something from your app's failed startup in there.
[07:26] <node357> greta so I dont even know if I can use my vid card.. great
[07:26] <node357> there's no escape from Microsoft is there??/
[07:26] <node357> I just need some help
[07:27] <amee2k> hello everyone
[07:27] <node357> hi :(
[07:27] <MOTZ> something with keyr zu bekommen ring
[07:27] <silwol> hello
[07:27] <amee2k> is there a tool to create an audio cd image (i.e. no direct burning) from wave files?
[07:27] <ks> nickrud ok
[07:27] <Flamekebab>  if the partitions are in XFS or JFS, samba will still allow windows and mac users to read and write to them?
[07:28] <node357> amee2k I think you need mkisofs
[07:28] <youknowme> How would I go about overclocking a video card in ubuntu?
[07:28] <node357> which I think is in the cdrtools package
[07:28] <amee2k> hm... i thought that could only create iso images for data CDs
[07:28] <node357> youknowme nvclock or in your system BIOS
[07:29] <node357> amee2k I believe there's a mode to make audio cd filesystem too
[07:29] <node357> but I could be wrong
[07:29] <node357> I'm a noob
[07:29] <cox377> can anyone recommend me a good vnc client, i've used the xtightvncviewwe and vncviewer - but when i hit F8 to come out it doesnt always work, bascally sometimes I loose keyboard alltogether
[07:29] <youknowme> node357, I don't know. I have a geforce 7300 LE and ubuntu..
[07:29] <nickrud> ks, you could add the -v switch to the shebang in your script; that should show you the execution of your script during startup
[07:29] <node357> youknowme, the only app I know to tune GeForce is nvclock package
[07:30] <AngryElf> how do I reinstall apache?
[07:30] <Pici> amee2k: Most of the cd bruning programs I've used in Ubuntu have 'burn to image' function.
[07:30] <Flamekebab> if partitions are in XFS or JFS, samba will still allow windows and mac users to read and write to them, won't it?
[07:30] <harleyquinn> Does anyone have the time to handhold a n00b through a lexmark printer install?? :D
[07:30] <AngryElf> i've tried removing and installing apache2 -- but that doesn't effectively work...
[07:30] <youknowme> node357, so I'd find that in synaptic?
[07:30] <node357> ugh I know theres some command to purge config files and stuff but I dont know what it is
[07:30] <node357> youknowme, yeah you should finnd it if you search in synaptic
[07:30] <amee2k> i was hoping for a tool without X interface
[07:30] <UncleD> I'm fully upgraded from Breezy to Fiesty now :DDDDD
[07:30] <node357> not sure how well the app works though
[07:31] <node357> amee2k, maybe grip would work for you
[07:31] <node357> amee2k, it takes a lot of configuration but it is graphical
[07:31] <amee2k> i just makes things faster
[07:31] <nickrud> UncleD: that must have taken some doing ;)
[07:31] <UncleD> I do have a question though. I have multiple processors in my machine. What is the latest smp kernel? linux-image-2.6.12-10-686-smp is what I see on apt-cache search.
[07:31] <nickrud> !smp | UncleD
[07:31] <ubotu> UncleD: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[07:31] <UncleD> nickrud: It took about 2-3 days most of the time spent downloading.
[07:31] <nickrud> UncleD: lol, I figured
[07:32] <youknowme> node357, there is nvclock,nvclock-gtk and nvclock-qt... Which one do I need?
[07:32] <Pici> !away > wimt|food
[07:32] <nickrud> UncleD: and uname -a in a terminal will show you if you already have smp
[07:32] <f00fat> Flamekebab> it is no problem - Samba is like a layer
[07:32] <node357> youknowme, if you want a graphical interface you probably want nvclock-gtk
[07:32] <node357> unless you are using Kubuntu then get the QT version
[07:33] <youknowme> node357, thanks. I'll let you know how it goes
[07:33] <nickrud> ks: you still about?
[07:33] <UncleD> nickrud: I'm not new to linux. Ive been using it 9 years.
[07:33] <node357> youknowme, ok good luck!
[07:33] <amee2k> hm... if mkisofs can do it, i can't figure out how :(
[07:33] <FFForever> how do i use rsa keys to login on ssh without a password?
[07:33] <nickrud> UncleD: saves me some typing then :)
[07:33] <UncleD> nickrud: I know how to see that I'm clearly not running an smp kernel. When I went from breezy to fiesty, it vanished.
[07:33] <Haggis> anyone here
[07:33] <AngryElf> anyone know how to reinstall apache fromt he ground up??
[07:33] <node357> nope :(
[07:33] <node357> lol
[07:33] <DABcore> hello everyone, I've problems installing dabcore driver for Bosch/Technotrend DAB card. could anybody help me, please?
[07:33] <UncleD> nickrud: Linux mint 2.6.20-16-386 #2 Fri Aug 31 00:51:58 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[07:33] <nickrud> UncleD: hm, I run the generic, and get smp. Odd.
[07:33] <Haggis> see when u put the ubuntu disc in it just sits at loading for about 5 mins is that normal??
[07:34] <nickrud> UncleD: install generic or lowlatency for smp
[07:34] <UncleD> nickrud: show me your uname?
[07:34] <node357> Haggis, it takes a few minutes sometimes
[07:34] <node357> try leaving it for 20 see if it works then

[07:34] <Haggis> ok no prob i shall try again
[07:34] <amee2k> FFForever: google for "ssh public key authentication howto" or something
[07:34] <node357> good luck
[07:34] <Haggis> 20 mins are u serious
[07:34] <nickrud>  UncleD: Linux aias 2.6.22-10-generic #1 SMP Wed Aug 22 08:11:52 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux

I know, I can download .deb and install manuallt, any other way ?
[07:35] <amee2k> FFForever: the key word here is "public key authentication".it should bring pu loads of howtos
[07:35] <UncleD> nickrud: how did you get 2.6.22-10
[07:35] <ks> nickrud nothing there
[07:35] <Pici> !gutsy | manopulus
[07:35] <ubotu> manopulus: 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
[07:35] <Haggis> when running a fresh install from cd yeah?
[07:35] <nickrud> UncleD: gutsy
[07:35] <UncleD> nickrud: I dont see 2.6.22-10...
[07:35] <node357> manopulus, do what I do and use the 32 bit version, much easier if you want a desktop system
[07:35] <UncleD> gutsy? Is that the next version?
[07:35] <int86>  feisty has stoppped my CMOS clock
[07:35] <node357> manopulus, 32 bit Ubuntu I mean
[07:35] <ks> nickrud how do I load the script the last one ?
[07:35] <manopulus> Pici: anyway, question should be eaxctly same for feisty. no mater
[07:35] <nickrud> ks: one more command: invoke-rc.d mongrel start stop, goes thru the links like the startup will
[07:35] <harleyquinn> Ok, I have a Lexmarx 3100 series printer, I'm running feisty, I have a fast machine, I'm dual booted with XP.  I need a walk-through on how to install the printer.
[07:35] <node357> Haggis, yep
[07:35] <UncleD> !gutsy
[07:35] <f00fat> nichrud: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[07:35] <amias> int86: cool , now you have all the time in the world
[07:36] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1

[07:36] <UncleD> gotcha!
[07:36] <node357> harleyquinn, I hope you dont have my Lexmark model, because it doesnt work in GNU/Linux at ALL :(
[07:36] <Enselic_> DABcore: please ask a specific questin
[07:36] <manopulus> node357: thanks, yep, I agree, was 32-bit, installed 64 to check performance (increased a bit0
[07:36] <harleyquinn> node357, is it the 3100?
[07:36] <node357> Lexmark 1200 series printers dont work
[07:36] <jaggy> hi :p

[07:36] <DABcore> I'm trying to install dabcore dirver
[07:36] <ubotu> manopulus I think this is what you are looking for: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[07:36] <ks> nickrud yeah this works fine

[07:37] <f00fat> nickrud: sorry
[07:37] <ob1101> so i've gotta reset my xorg stuff, is there a simple way to do this?
[07:37] <Anlar> criminy: find from packages.ubuntu.com or by installing apt-file
[07:38] <jaggy> node357 how u knw that :s
[07:38] <nickrud> f00fat: np, I get out of sync here all the time
[07:38] <node357> just an educated guess that's all
[07:38] <Paulieshomepc> was  wondering  where  any  good  sites  were  at  explaining  how  to  configure  web cam s
[07:38] <hironimus> Does anyone have any idea why an environment variable that I've set and exported in /etc/profile (and /etc/bash.bashrc just for kicks) doesn't show up when I run a script via sudo? (I'm on Dapper Drake server...)
[07:38] <DABcore> I don't really how much more specific should i be :)
[07:38] <smultron> i have a realtek ethernet card which Ubuntu doesn't seem to support (because I can't get online). any suggestions?
[07:38] <node357> sometimes "hacking" means messing around with a system to make stuff work
[07:38] <UncleD> nickrud: Are there any advantages in ubuntu vs debian?
[07:38] <amias> Paulieshomepc, ubuntuforums
[07:38] <jaggy> :p  oh nvm then xd
[07:38] <criminy> Ah, thank you Anlar. I wasn't away of packages.ubunut.com
[07:38] <node357> :)
[07:38] <criminy> aware*
[07:39] <Paulieshomepc> been there havent seen anything  that  starts  at the  very start
[07:39] <ks> nickrud if I do 'update-rc.d  mongrel.sh defaults' does it run 'start' by default ?
[07:39] <harleyquinn> I've figured out how to extract the driver to the desktop, I figured out how to install the driver, I just failed to install it as sudo.. what I'm hung up on is how to edit /ect/fstab..
[07:39] <nickrud> UncleD: configuration, pretty much. things you'd have to set up yourself in debian have 'sane
[07:39] <danielronin> can anone here walkme through creating an ext3 partition with CLE, qtpartd GUI won't offer the option of creating an ext3 or reiserfs

[07:39] <acoc> hey guys, I've got a bin dir in /opt that ubuntu doesn't pick up, how do I add it
[07:39] <node357> harleyquinn, no idea on what to do with fstab file :(
[07:40] <node357> !path
[07:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about path - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:40] <Enselic_> acoc: add /opt/bin to the PATH env
[07:40] <harleyquinn> well I know what to do with it, I just can't remember how to edit it...
[07:40] <node357> what, no path?
[07:40] <nickrud> ks: no, defaults simply set up the links ; man update-rc.d will give you the gory details. You should look in /etc/rc2.d to be sure your script got linked
[07:40] <Dr_willis> acoc,  you could edit the users .bashrc and add it to their path. 'export PATH=$PATH:/opt/bin'
[07:40] <node357> acoc, http://www.linuxheadquarters.com/howto/basic/path.shtml
[07:40] <node357> oops
[07:40] <Enselic_> acoc: or edit /etc/environment
[07:40] <ob1101> does anybody know how i can get tiny irc to stop telling me about people comeing and going, its filling up the screen with crap

[07:50] <criminy> packages.ubuntu.com says /etc/init.d/apache2 is in apache2.2-common, but a sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 won't install it
[07:50] <DABcore> what are possible reasons of driver compile failure?
[07:50] <Pici> jesson: sudo apt-get remove dante-server
[07:51] <kitche> DABcore, no kernel headers or kernel source
[07:51] <ob1101> its a X800
[07:51] <DABcore> but they are installed
[07:51] <f00fat> danielronin> mke2fs -j /dev/hdX
[07:51] <jesson> pici why do u think i keep getting that error? is there any file that i should confgure? if so which dir or wat command?
[07:51] <DABcore> could they be misconfigured?
[07:51] <Pici> jesson: I dont know. Why did you install dante?
[07:51] <ob1101> all these assholes joining and leaving are cluttering the fuck out of my monitor
[07:51] <criminy> It's even listed in dpkg-query -L apache2.2-common
[07:51] <PriceChild> !ohmy | ob1101
[07:51] <ubotu> ob1101: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:52] <PriceChild> ob1101, you might want to read up on the /ignore command
[07:52] <ob1101> i didnt get enough time to write that command down, dam thats annoying
[07:52] <jesson> i wanted to make this computer my sock 4 server
[07:52] <tovella> ob1101: some people actually do experience network connectivity problems.
[07:52] <nickrud> criminy: apt-cache search apache2 ; pick an mpm to install
[07:52] <Pici> jesson: You should check out the documentation for dante then.
[07:52] <DABcore> how do I make sure I have everything working in order to compile a driver?
[07:53] <MrP> Hello
[07:53] <MrP> Is libapache-mod-ssl for apache 1 or 2?
[07:53] <ob1101> its not network connectivity stuff i just dont want tinyirc to tell me every time
[07:53] <f00fat> danielronin: the best is you use following commands:
[07:53] <f00fat> mke2fs /dev/hdx
[07:53] <f00fat> tune2fs -O has_journal -o journal_data /dev/hdx
[07:53] <f00fat> tune2fs -O dir_index /dev/hdx
[07:53] <criminy> I have already installed an mpm
[07:54] <Morti> does anyone know where I might find drivers for the Logitech Dinovo Desktop set?
[07:54] <monster> i pushed an ubuntu clone to another machine with different hardware specs, is there something i can "dpkg-reconfigure" so it using the proper modules? the machine runs kinda slow.
[07:54] <nickrud> DABcore: in general , you need to install build-essential and linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[07:54] <Pici> f00fat: Please use a pastebin next time.
[07:54] <tovella> ob1101: "joining and leaving" is sometimes do to connection problems, i mean.
[07:54] <zomg_> I get Input/output error when i try to burn. Worked great yesterday. Any idea on whats causing it? I use Growisofs in U0704 burning DL DVD verbatim media, pioneer 111d burner latest firmware. :-[ READ DISC INFORMATION failed with SK=4h/ASC=08h/ACQ=01h] : Input/output error
[07:54] <f00fat> Pici: sorry, was too fast ...
[07:54] <DABcore> nickrud: how do I check if it's installed?
[07:54] <apfel> Anyone successfully using a docking station with ubuntu?
[07:54] <MrP> I'm using fiesty fawn and I can't seem to be able to find apache2-ssl-certificate... where is it at?
[07:54] <nickrud> DABcore: dpkg -l <package> ; ii in the first two columns means installed
[07:55] <ob1101> so i needed to use dpgk -reconfigure *something*?...
[07:55] <MindSpark> Edgy, running dual head, 1 x LCD on laptop and 1x External LCD. External LCD is distorted and same resolution as Lappie LCD. Any suggestions ?
[07:55] <Morti> no one knows where to find drivers for the Logitech Dinovo Desktop set?
[07:56] <ticked> another newbie question...when i am reading help files and such and i see multiple lines to type into terminal am i correct in assuming that its safe to copy and paste all the lines at once or should i enter them one at a time?
[07:56] <nickrud> f00fat: I've understood that mkfs.ext3 does that for me, it doesn't?
[07:56] <PriceChild> ticked, do one at a time just incase... so you can see if they succeed
[07:56] <jesson> wat is the themes for ubuntu windows??
[07:56] <ticked> ko
[07:56] <criminy> ahh, weird. I had to /reinstall/ the mpm package.
[07:56] <MindSpark> ticked, I'd pipe them
[07:56] <PriceChild> jesson, could you expand a little on your question please? I don't understand.
[07:56] <ticked> thanks PriceChild
[07:56] <DABcore> No packages found matching build-essential.
[07:56] <criminy> and it still didn't show up x.x
[07:56] <MindSpark> ticked, try man2html
[07:57] <ticked> mindspark  pipe them??
[07:57] <nickrud> DABcore: then it's not installed. dpkg often returns no info on packages not actually installed
[07:57] <Malachi> Does anyone know what Microsoft Math is, what it does, and if there is a Linux alternative?
[07:57] <ob1101> i'm gonna go kill myself
[07:57] <MindSpark> ticked, what format are the helpfiles in ?
[07:57] <Malachi> I'm trying to prevent someone from installing Windows just to try out this program.
[07:57] <PriceChild> Malachi, instead could you tell me what you would want to do? for example.... "write nice looking equations"
[07:57] <DABcore> nickrud: I'll try installing using synaptic
[07:58] <PriceChild> Malachi, as I am unfamiliar with microsoft math and what it does
[07:58] <Pici> Malachi: iirc Microsoft Math is just a way to do mathematical symbols.
[07:58] <f00fat> nickrud: yes, it does it too.
[07:58] <ticked> MindSpark i am at this website http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/enable_compizfusion_in_ubuntu_feisty/
[07:58] <Malachi> PriceChild: I don't know what it does either.
[07:58] <Malachi> Pici: So OpenOffice Math should do the same?
[07:58] <node357> what about OpenOffice Calc ?
[07:58] <jesson> lol i mean im on this site called gnomelook.org and i dont see a theme package for ubuntu all i see is icon theme for icon ofcourse ,wallpapers screesaver and many more but i cant find something for windows like  for taskbar
[07:58] <steveatlocalhost> hey
[07:58] <monster> anyone know how to get ubuntu to reconfigure to new hardware?
[07:58] <Malachi> Pici: I thought it solved it, too...
[07:58] <ben__> or qalculator
[07:58] <node357> blar. lol
[07:58] <nickrud> f00fat: ok, had a sinking feeling I was missing out on something
[07:58] <MindSpark> ticked, and you want to copy it's content ?
[07:58] <Pici> Malachi: I could be wrong.
[07:58] <node357> 3d calculator, yay
[07:59] <Malachi> qalculator is nice.
[07:59] <node357> I love the name, never tried qalculator though
[07:59] <nickrud> monster: it does that automatically each time you  boot pretty much .... except for graphics
[07:59] <ticked> the stuff it said to type in terminal, i have done all the lines for other things i was doing and all worked well, but i just wanted to make sure i wasnt doin somethin stupid
[07:59] <Pici> !away > bluefox83
[07:59] <Morti> how do I install bluetooth?
[07:59] <bluefox83> pichu0102_, it wont display more than once, it'll be ok :P
[08:00] <bluefox83> er, pici :P
[08:00] <monster> nickrud: i pushed a clone from an hp box to a emachine, the specs are good on the emachine, but it seems to be running sub par.
[08:00] <Pici> bluefox83: read the message from ubotu.
[08:00] <monster> i figured it was something to do with different hardware
[08:00] <Jefones> how do I see the running daemons?
[08:00] <ticked> i am just gonna start typin it in line by line and stop pasting so maybe i will learn this stuff
[08:00] <joakim-> anyone here know if gmusicbrowser has got an IRC channel?
[08:01] <Azzkikr> Jefones: you mean every running process?
[08:01] <DigeratiX> anyone know where some sis 5598/6326 ubuntu video drivers are?
[08:01] <stdin> !away > bluefox83[away] 
[08:01] <nickrud> monster: I can suggest running lspci, that lists the modules the kernel loaded to run your machine. You can check to see if the modules matching your hardware best are being used.
[08:01] <monster> ok
[08:01] <node357> oh, feel the burn of NICKLEN
[08:01] <ticked> well i will be back soon for my next newbie question thanks
[08:01] <ticked> p.s. i love ya all
[08:01] <Jefones> my gnome start is very slow
[08:01] <blerd> !ask
[08:01] <node357> <3
[08:01] <FFForever> !info
[08:01] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about info - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:02] <PriceChild> DigeratiX, i "think" you can change the video card driver line in /etc/X11/xorg to "sis"
[08:02] <DigeratiX> ok
[08:02] <jesson> wat does gdm theme means ??
[08:02] <DigeratiX> i will backup the conf and try
[08:02] <jesson> is it for ubuntu??
[08:02] <nickrud> jesson: the login screen theme
[08:02] <DABcore> what do I do if dpkg -l linux-headers-$(uname -r) returns Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
[08:02] <Pici> jesson: gdm = gnome display manager = the screen you see when you login
[08:02] <jesson> is it for ubntu ?
[08:02] <Azzkikr> jesson: it's is the startup screen for Gnome
[08:02] <ebirtaid> jesson: gdm is your login screen
[08:02] <jesson> i c  wat about the windows theme wat is it called?
[08:03] <nickrud> jesson: it's for the login screen; works with gdm, which ubuntu uses
[08:03] <jesson> like my taskbar wats the specific theme for it
[08:03] <ebirtaid> jesson:  gtk theme
[08:03] <nickrud> jesson: metacity for window borders, gtk2 themes for the pixels inside
[08:03] <Jefones> Azzkikr, my gnome start is very slow
[08:03] <jesson> let me dl , how do i intall it?
[08:03] <node357> nickrud, which one includes the title bar?
[08:03] <arose> Any idea why my second sound card disapears when I plug in a TV card?
[08:04] <nickrud> node357: metacity
[08:04] <Pici> !changethemes > jesson
[08:04] <node357> nickrud, thanks!
[08:04] <node357> so buttons and stuff are GTK2
[08:04] <nickrud> yes
[08:04] <node357> arose, maybe IRQ conflicts
[08:04] <Azzkikr> Jefones: first, try starting in safe mode, see how much time that takes
[08:05] <Jefones> Azzkikr, ok... thanks
[08:05] <nickrud> monster, reading back it's lsmod , doh
[08:05] <DABcore> nickrud: how do I reconfigure kernel source?
[08:05] <Azzkikr> Jefones: you could do that to rule out if it's Gnome, or the system startup itself
[08:05] <RichW> Hey, Is there any way to auto-login to the keyring?
[08:05] <arose> node357, acording to lspci one sits on 10 and the other on 20
[08:05] <RichW> My WPA password is stored in it
[08:05] <RichW> and I have to type it at startup
[08:05] <Azzkikr> Jefones: once it's started up (ie. you get a login screen) you can startup gnome by typing:  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[08:05] <nickrud> DABcore: big subject :) I haven't done it for a couple years, so i don't have a decent link to give you, sorry
[08:05] <RichW> This isnt ideal as I will run the computer as a server
[08:06] <Morti> I'm new to linux, could someone suggest some reading material?
[08:06] <node357> arose, ok sorry... was just an uneducated guess :/
[08:06] <monster> nickrud: http://rafb.net/p/jNB20J70.html
[08:06] <Jefones> Azzkikr, ok
[08:06] <Pici> !wiki | Morti, good place to start
[08:06] <ubotu> Morti, good place to start: http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu development documentation wiki. If you are looking for system help, please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community - the Ubuntu community documentation.
[08:06] <Azzkikr> Jefones: you know how to boot in safe mode?
[08:06] <Morti> thanks :)
[08:06] <DABcore> nickrud: is it default option for the headers to be unconfigured or did I mess something up?
[08:06] <monster> nickrud: the machine is a emachine t2240
[08:06] <nickrud> monster: ah, you were away when I corrected my advice: I wrote lspci when I should have said lsmod ;)
[08:06] <monster> info at http://www.shopping.com/xPF-E-Machines-T2240
[08:07] <monster> oh ok
[08:07] <node357> I hate doing stuff that needs kernel source code :(
[08:07] <node357> it never works!
[08:07] <nickrud> DABcore: what do you mean by unconfigured?
[08:07] <arose> node357, they coexisted for a while, then the soundcard disapeared, then it apeared again and now it's gone for good
[08:07] <DABcore> nickrud: dpkg gives:| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
[08:07] <node357> :(
[08:07] <nickrud> node357: you nearly always only need the headers for your running kernel ; linux-headers-$(uname -r)  (and I agree, it can be frustrating)
[08:07] <monster> nickrud: http://rafb.net/p/mYa3Jl42.html
[08:07] <node357> I have no idea what might cause that, sorry :(
[08:08] <node357> ok nickrud, that's kinda handy to know thanks :)
[08:08] <monster> FUCK
[08:08] <node357> ouch
[08:08] <monster> oh pardon my french

[08:08] <estela> ola
[08:08] <Azzkikr> Jefones: yes, thats the one
[08:08] <nickrud> DABcore: thats an index to interpreting the info on the line actually listing the headers

[08:09] <Azzkikr> Jefones: let me know
[08:09] <nickrud> DABcore: you should put them on a pastebin, that way everyone can see and help
[08:09] <nickrud> !pastebin | DABcore

[08:22] <nickrud> DABcore: see how the line with linux-headers has ii at the beginning? that means it's installed, and the next action on it is to keep it installed. See the key at the top of that output
[08:23] <nickrud> DABcore: got to go, get ready for work. See you around, and good luck with whatever module you're after ;)
[08:23] <DABcore> nickrud: is it possible not to mess with the kernel source and headers, but use some other way to compile? like make-kpkg
[08:23] <DABcore> nickrud: thanks! good luck :)

[08:26] <crooked> hello all !
[08:27] <Evanlec> anyone help me with grub? :(
[08:27] <nivvy> hey guys, i accidentally deleted su [don't ask] , and i need the executable--is there a deb package i can install?
[08:27] <nivvy> or can someone email me a copy of su? id really appreciate it -- its ubuntu a64
[08:27] <teimu> does anyone know how i can ftp somewhere with implicit SSL using only the command line?
[08:27] <crooked> I never done that!
[08:27] <crooked> lol
[08:28] <nivvy> Evanlec, whats wrong?
[08:28] <Evanlec> nivvy, it appears to have screwed up my windows boot
[08:28] <Vorbote> teimu: use lftp "ftps://blah"
[08:28] <nivvy> as in it wont boot into it anymore?
[08:28] <teimu> thanks Vorbote
[08:28] <Evanlec> if i hit "windows" on the grub menu it gives me some errors
[08:28] <Evanlec> yea
[08:28] <nivvy> like you cant boot that partition?
[08:29] <Evanlec> right, its actually a seperate physical drive
[08:29] <Evanlec> but yes
[08:29] <Evanlec> installed windows vista to hd0,0 and ubuntu after to hd1,0
[08:29] <nivvy> ah
[08:30] <BoSJo> Is there a shortcut bar like the one that was included in "Office XP" for Windows?
[08:30] <Evanlec> but it was weird, even after i had deleted ubuntu and windows and re-installed windows, there was still some weird grub text showing up when i booted windows
[08:30] <Evanlec> then i installed ubuntu again hoping it would fix itself, and now it wont even boot
[08:30] <nivvy> well if its on a seperate physical drive
[08:30] <nivvy> it might have something to do with the ribbon cable
[08:31] <Evanlec> same text shows up when windows boots, and then it gets a blue screen (i think) but its very quick
[08:31] <nivvy> are they PATA drives?
[08:31] <xnfcre> with fiesty fawn and an ICH8 chipset, sata hdd, and atapi cdrom drive, it doesnt load ide_generic automatically and can't therefore load the livecd
[08:31] <Evanlec> SATA
[08:31] <Evanlec> both sata
[08:31] <xnfcre> what is the correct way to fix this?
[08:31] <nivvy> ah then thats not a problem
[08:31] <nivvy> i had something similar happen with vista but on the same drive, but i havent resolved that yet =/
[08:31] <nivvy> sorry not of much help
[08:31] <Evanlec> i did switch the cables around
[08:31] <xnfcre> i was able to get it working with a USB dvdrom to install it, but then after the install it still doesnt load ide_generic automaticlaly
[08:31] <doddi> i have a problem with my drive - i have vista partition and another partition that i want to stick ubuntu onto on my SATA drive. when i run the liveCD it cant see my harddrive at all (not just the partitions but the actual drive), if i change the setting to RAIS drive in bios the liveCD then finds the drive - but my Vista wont boot....any suggestions?
[08:32] <Evanlec> would switching the sata cables around make trouble ?
[08:32] <doddi> ^^RAID
[08:32] <Evanlec> even if i did it before i installed windows/ubunut ?
[08:32] <tuqann> hi, anyone knows how to hookup a samsung mobil phone via usb to bitpim???
[08:33] <xnfcre> i realize i can just put ide_generic into /etc/modules.whatever, but I'd really like a way to make the livecd work
[08:33] <xnfcre> is there a better way to do this?
[08:34] <nivvy> so...is anyone willing to hook me up with a copy of ubuntu amd64 su? i just need the executable...
[08:35] <Evanlec> nivvy did u look in the repository?
[08:35] <kitche> nivvy, why don't you have it?
[08:35] <nivvy> because i accidentally removed it
[08:35] <nivvy> slip of the finger
[08:35] <Moniker42134> ummmm.... my recycling bin is stuck =(
[08:36] <nivvy> so i just need to put that back into /bin
[08:36] <nivvy> (hopefully)
[08:36] <tuqann> Anyone knows how we can Bitpim to work with a usb cable rather than a com port???
[08:36] <stefg> !find su
[08:36] <ubotu> Found: acpi-support, binfmt-support, gksu, gnome-games, hfsutils (and 342 others)
[08:36] <nivvy> its not a package
[08:36] <nivvy> afaik
[08:37] <xnfcre> its part of login
[08:37] <xnfcre> the package
[08:37] <stefg> nivvy: it's probably something like ubuntu-base, so reinstalling that will restore it
[08:37] <Pici> nivvy: Its in the login package. Reinstall that.
[08:37] <nivvy> alright
[08:37] <nivvy> is there a force reinstall command? sudo apt-get ___
[08:37] <kahrytan> Pici, isn't it meta package?
[08:37] <Evanlec> tuqann i believe usb ports (atleast in windows) create a "virtual com port"
[08:38] <stefg> nivvy: sudo apt-get install --reinstall ...
[08:38] <nivvy> alright, lets give it a shot
[08:38] <nivvy> thanks
[08:38] <degrit> 'allo
[08:38] <AngryElf> er, how do I get java 1.5?
[08:38] <xnfcre> has anyone experienced this stuff with the ICH8 not loading ide_generic?
[08:38] <Evanlec> anyone know how to fix my windows install that got messed up by ubuntu
[08:38] <tuqann> Evanlec: well, i plugged the thing, nothing happened, installed Bitpim, didn't detect, installed MoPOL nothing happened
[08:38] <xnfcre> i should say, with an ICH8 chipset, and sata hdd
[08:39] <simu> hello I have a strange problem, my Trash shows up with the contents of /var/run
[08:39] <degrit> my ALT key doesn't work anymore for typing extended ascii (alt+code), can anyone help ? pretty please
[08:39] <nivvy> awesome guys
[08:39] <kitche> degrit, that has been turned off
[08:39] <nivvy> it worked, thanks a lot
[08:39] <simu> if I delete stuff, it is beeing shown in the Trash folder (aside of the files in /var/run)
[08:39] <tuqann> Evanlec: installed ubuntu and now you don't get a boot?
[08:39] <Evanlec> tuqann - i would say read up bitpim docs, see if u can make the usb port act as a virtual comp port
[08:39] <Evanlec> tuqann, installed ubuntu after windows, and now windows wont boot
[08:40] <degrit> kitche: please explain ? who turned it off P:
[08:40] <kitche> degrit, the ubuntu devs turned it off since most users don't use it
[08:40] <tuqann> Evanlec: do you get the GRUB boot screen, or the machine jumps immediately to Ubuntu?
[08:40] <Evanlec> got the grub boot screen, has windows vista option
[08:40] <airstrike> hello
[08:40] <degrit> kitche: we are of course talking of the same thing, e.g. alt+0123 gives a fancy bracket, right ?
[08:41] <Evanlec> which si set correctly, but upon booting windows it gives me some text and a blue screen
[08:41] <Evanlec> well if its a blue screen its very quick, hardly see it
[08:41] <giggety> BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH
[08:41] <Evanlec> ya
[08:41] <kitche> degrit, yes
[08:41] <degrit> kitche: can I turn it back on ? I am a developer and my keyboard only has round and square brackets - it's quite a problem to me
[08:42] <nitro4ce> hi. i plugged a pendrive and it was automatically mounted at /media/disk. it is not in /etc/fstab and i want to add it. how can i add it?.. i mean i want to know the /dev/something path i need to add.
[08:42] <tuqann> Evanlec: Vista is a lot less friendlier than XP when it comes to multiple boots, i would suggest GRUB's recovery CD, it would reinstall GRUB and fix the boot. But this very well could be a Vista incompatibility
[08:42] <Evanlec> hmm
[08:42] <Evanlec> ok
[08:43] <neol> !nvidia
[08:43] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:43] <kitche> degrit, it's probably have to add something to inputtrc
[08:43] <degrit> kitche: ...what ? P:
[08:43] <Jowi> nitro4ce, "mount" in a teminal should tell you
[08:43] <Evanlec> tuqann, is there a recovery CD or is it a floppy? :(
[08:44] <airstrike> i use a compal hel80 laptop and my keyboard volume keys are working inaccurately. they are changing the PCM-2 volume, not the master volume. any ideas?
[08:45] <tuqann> Evanlec: the recovery CD is very small, a few MBs only, and there is a floppy option and a USB option, but depending on some machine floppy and usb might not work. if you have a blank laying around the download isn't big at all
[08:45] <Evanlec> can u link me? ;p
[08:45] <tuqann> Evanlec: alreadying googling :P
[08:47] <Evanlec> okay i found somethin
[08:47] <Evanlec> its called SUPER GRUB DISK
[08:47] <Evanlec> lol
[08:47] <Evanlec> http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/?section=download
[08:47] <tuqann> Evanlec: that's the one
[08:47] <Evanlec> cool
[08:48] <kc5goi> Can someone tell me if the newalias utility is installed when I install Postfix?  Right now it is not on my system.
[08:48] <Evanlec> how do i burn an iso onto my usb flash drive?
[08:48] <tuqann> you can check if the problem was just a boot thing or vista
[08:48] <Evanlec> just extract it?
[08:48] <tuqann> Evanlec: a very important note
[08:48] <genii> kc5goi: Yes, thats part of postfix
[08:48] <tuqann> Making Vista's drive the home of GRUB can fix the problem
[08:48] <kc5goi> genii: thanks.  The alias file exists so that was my assumption.
[08:49] <genii> postalias newalis et al
[08:49] <Evanlec> ok
[08:49] <tuqann> rather than making the grub's home the linux drive
[08:49] <degrit> ahhhhh I found the brackets
[08:49] <degrit> well hurrah
[08:49] <Evanlec> i thot grub installed itself to the mbr anyway?
[08:49] <kc5goi> I did not look for postalias, I am moving from sendmail to postfix tomorrow.
[08:49] <tuqann> well mbr could be on any of the drives
[08:50] <Evanlec> right but if i installed windows on hd0,0 then its probably on that one
[08:50] <tuqann> check in the options how to make Vista's drive (C:) the one
[08:50] <Evanlec> ohhh
[08:50] <Evanlec> actually u know what
[08:50] <tuqann> not necessary
[08:50] <kc5goi> Evanlec, there is a site that covers how to put linux ditros on usb.
[08:50] <WhereIsMyMind> heLLo
[08:50] <Evanlec> i DID change the cables around so that the drive that used to be hd0 is now hd1
[08:51] <Evanlec> so i betcha theres a leftover mbr on it or something
[08:51] <kc5goi> Look for pendrive linux.
[08:51] <tuqann> nice one! :P
[08:51] <Evanlec> kc5goi, i just want toput the contents of grub recovery disk on my flash drive
[08:51] <tuqann> Evanlec: get the usb version then, different than the CD image
[08:51] <kc5goi> ah, I see.  I came in late so I was not sure what you wanted to achieve.
[08:52] <Evanlec> but tuqann i did this before i installed windows/or ubuntu
[08:52] <Evanlec> but windows still shwoed some strange linux text when it booted up, even tho i had no linux installed on either drive
[08:52] <Evanlec> now it shows that text but it goes to a blue screen and restarts
[08:53] <Evanlec> tuqann, where do u see the usb version?
[08:53] <Metal03> Hello everyone, I'm having an issue trying to start World of Warcraft.

[08:56] <tuqann> Evanlec: good luck and home it works, ciao
[08:56] <graulich> my two ubuntu machines refuse to communicate via smb. what do I do?
[08:56] <Evanlec> tuqann, tx
[08:57] <elzbal> graulich: try NFS.
[08:57] <Vorbote> graulich: are both in the same workgroup?
[08:57] <A[D] minS> !ldap
[08:57] <ubotu> LDAP is the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. For more information and installation instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer
[08:58] <graulich> Vorbote, just a few minutes ago I could transfer files between them just fine, but I switched them from wifi to lan to get better speed and now they're blind to eacother.
[08:58] <graulich> elzbal, when I use nfs I don't know how to access the folder on the other machine.
[08:59] <Vorbote> graulich: you'll need to explore the network again in both machines and mount the volumes. That's one of the features of CIFS over TCP/IP... (Blame the creator).
[09:00] <graulich> Vorbote, but before they just saw eachother with no further intervention
[09:01] <Vorbote> Yes, of course, but the connections you created are pointing to different IPs and surely in different network subclasses.
[09:01] <Vorbote> That are not accesible to your machines anymore.
[09:01] <Vorbote> The physical route is not there.
[09:01] <xfiles_ken> Pici:
[09:01] <graulich> the point is I didn't manually create any connections
[09:02] <Pici> xfiles_ken: ?
[09:02] <graulich> I just used places>network and saw the other machine right away
[09:02] <csete> Does anyone know if there is a way to guarantee one-way sync with rsync?  I want to back up my photos to my ISP, but never have accidental changes propagate back.
[09:02] <Mushy> Ey guys, error 21 on ubuntu server ed? whuts the problem most likely?
[09:02] <Mushy> v 7.04
[09:02] <xfiles_ken> Pici: Looked at you in
[09:02] <jonesy> trying to run zabbix under feisty using the zabbix-server-mysql package, but it apparently doesn't require that mysql server be installed, so things are a bit b0rk3d now. Where is the SQL file to populate the initial zabbix database?
[09:03] <jonesy> I've installed mysql, I created the database, but I can't find 'mysql.sql' to put tables in it and stuff.
[09:03] <eugman> is there a glulxe interpreter in the repos?
[09:04] <darrend> anyone tell me where the trackerd (desktop search daemon) stores its index?
[09:04] <ethan> is there a way to vnc into fluxbox from XP?
[09:04] <graulich> Vorbote, how am I supposed to find the shared folder if it doesn't just show up on the network?
[09:05] <Vorbote> graulich: restart the samba server in both machines.
[09:05] <Fred_Sambo> join #ubuntu-maine
[09:05] <Fred_Sambo> doh
[09:05] <graulich> Vorbote, how do I do that?
[09:05] <genii> sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[09:05] <elzbal> ethan: There are a number of VNC clients for windows.
[09:05] <codeshah> hrrmpf... grub didn't show anything @ start... just the cursor
[09:05] <graulich> thx genii
[09:05] <Jowi> Mushy, are you having RAID or not on those disks (i suspect you have more than one disk)? you can try to change the disks order in CMOS/BIOS.
[09:06] <genii> graulich: yer welcome
[09:06] <elzbal> ethan: I've used both RealVNC and TightVNC for Windows, and they both work as advertized.
[09:06] <Frede> Hola. I downloaded Ubuntu and put it on a bootable CD. It won't allow me to burn CDs using the built-in burner. It says that I should insert a CD or CD-R with at least 700 MB space which I do but it doesnt work. The CDs work fine in XP
[09:06] <Vorbote> graulich:   With GNOME: System->Administration->Services. Click on disable and apply, reenable and apply again.

[09:16] <netizen80> Jack_Sparrow: eheuehe thanks for your help
[09:16] <A[D] minS> so ow i can fix this issue
[09:16] <A[D] minS> how*
[09:16] <xfiles_ken> Pici: shutdown +60 ?
[09:17] <Frede> so this is a support channel, right?
[09:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Frede: We try..
[09:17] <Pici> xfiles_ken: That should work.
[09:18] <Frede> I downloaded Ubuntu and put it on a bootable CD. It won't allow me to burn CDs using the buiNautilus  burner. It recognices the CD but when I start to burn it says that I should insert a CD or CD-R with at least 700 MB space which I do but it doesnt work. The CDs work fine in XP

[09:19] <xfiles_ken> Pici: What after the LINUX 60 minute automatic shut-offs orders are?
[09:20] <Frede> Not writing an ISO but files. When I select "Burn to CD" it says "initializing" and then stops and tells me to insert a CD with enough space (which is already in the CD-recorder)
[09:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Frede: Have you installed to the hard drive?
[09:20] <xfiles_ken> What after the LINUX 60 minute automatic shut-offs orders are?
[09:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Frede: What size is the file you are trying to write..
[09:21] <Frede> It's a Windows XP disk which is browseable through Nautilus. There are many files (content of My Documents)
[09:21] <Jack_Sparrow> xfiles_ken: You asked that two lines ago, we still see it but no one knows the answer...
[09:22] <rockets> What application does this?
[09:22] <rockets>  foff
[09:22] <rockets> The program 'foff' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[09:22] <rockets> sudo apt-get install foff
[09:22] <xfiles_ken> Jack_Sparrow: why?
[09:22] <rockets> Make sure you have the 'universe' component enabled
[09:22] <rockets> bash: foff: command not found
[09:22] <stefg> Frede: so you are trying to write files to an open Multisession CD or what?
[09:22] <Jack_Sparrow> xfiles_ken: Why dont we know the answer... gee...
[09:22] <Frede> A blank CD. Tried different brands and CD and CR-RW but it won't work
[09:23] <xfiles_ken> Jack_Sparrow: This should be a very simple question
[09:23] <dyrne> rockets: youre wondering about universe?
[09:23] <mnemo> I accidently downloaded the latest "eye of gnome" and did "make install"... how can I undo that so I get the original version that shipped with my Ubuntu??? I mean, can I like force apt-get to re-install the original version?
[09:23] <Jack_Sparrow> xfiles_ken: FOr starters I cant make much sence of your question
[09:23] <Glave-work> how can you mark a drive 'clean' in a raid5 array? I had 2 drives get removed from the array because I had a timeout issue due to a cable, and now I'd like to assemble that array again, but I'm being told I don't have enough devices (5 out of 7)
[09:25] <xfiles_ken> Jack_Sparrow: Here LINUX master is not should be more?

[09:26] <tgelter> facugiach: use "du"
[09:26] <barretj> as it is now, i have to mouse-over the battery icon to get a tooltip which displays the percentage remaining
[09:26] <FFForever> what does ubotu run?
[09:26] <inaety> barretj: IIRC right click it and say "display always"
[09:27] <stefg> Frede: so i assume somthing in your configuration isn't right, so the CD Burner isn't recognised. I'd suggest installing brasero or k3b, so you can look at your CD-Burner properties. Also make sure you have burn rights (this means being in the right groups in the System-Admin-users control applet)
[09:27] <barretj> inaety: there is no "display always" option
[09:27] <xfiles_ken> Jack_Sparrow: I want to study English

[09:28] <tgelter> facugaich: or do you want to know how much free space is available?
[09:28] <barretj> ah, i just found another thing in the "add to panel menu", called "battery charge monitor" which does what i want
[09:28] <FFForever> yeah*
[09:28] <barretj> thanks guys
[09:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Frede: try installing k3b and see if that lets you do it.
[09:28] <PriceChild> FFForever, no, why do you want it?
[09:28] <facugaich> tgelter: sorry, I meant what you said
[09:28] <FFForever> pidgin rocks :D
[09:28] <Frede> So how to install K3b on a boot CD, hmmmmm
[09:29] <FFForever> and ofc i want it...
[09:29] <tgelter> facugaich: so that'll work for you then?
[09:29] <Pici> PolitikerNEU: Gutsy has not been released yet and should not be run on production systems.  Please direct questions to #ubuntu+1
[09:29] <FFForever> i just hate compiling......
[09:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Frede: It will install, do you have two drives I assume
[09:29] <PriceChild> FFForever, then seen as you don't know why you want it... i suggest you don't break your system by trying to get it.
[09:29] <FFForever> i like the new ui
[09:29] <facugaich> tgelter: No, I want to know how much free space is avaliable
[09:29] <PriceChild> FFForever, its the same ui
[09:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Frede: You can alsu setup a persistent usb if you have a small one handy
[09:29] <FFForever> no
[09:29] <PriceChild> minute changes
[09:30] <FFForever> they made some gfx changes :), looks so much better
[09:30] <Frede> Nope one drive. This is a WIndows machine that I want to rescue files from before I attempt to repair it.
[09:30] <FFForever> id break my systems 100+ times to use it :D
[09:30] <facugaich> tgelter: there's a command that shows it for every partition I don't remember which
[09:30] <Frede> Can I install k3b on a USB stick and run from there?
[09:30] <PriceChild> FFForever, then wait till october and it will be in ubuntu 7.10 which you can upgraed to
[09:30] <Metal03> hi there, I typed "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable" and now when I boot it says that my X server can't start...  What can I do?
[09:30] <FFForever> i am not going to upgrade
[09:30] <FFForever> i don't like the new compiz fusion
[09:30] <FFForever> i like beryl :D
[09:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Frede: You should be able to install live, you will just lose it when you reboot.
[09:31] <tgelter> facugaich: df
[09:31] <TheMafia> can someone tell me what sed line would tell me any line that does not contain exactly 17 characters
[09:31] <Frede> OK, so where can I get this k3b?
[09:31] <facugaich> tgelter: that's it, thank you
[09:31] <PriceChild> FFForever, you really don't sound like you know what you're doing at all... I strongly advise against upgrading packages to those outside the repositories.
[09:31] <tgelter> facugaich: no problem
[09:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Frede: synaptic for one
[09:31] <devo> Why is it sometimes I can see the application icons in my workspaces and then it disappeared? How do I get the icons back?
[09:31] <xfiles_ken> Jack_Sparrow: bay
[09:32] <xfiles_ken> Pici: bay
[09:32] <FFForever> PriceChild, if ubuntu has a up2date repo that comes with all the latest untested stuff ill use it :D, know any?
[09:32] <Frede> synaptic.com or? I am total newbie at Ubuntu
[09:32] <blekos> hi, i've come accross a problem both in feisty & gutsy
[09:32] <Pici> FFForever: There is no Offical Ubuntu repo like that.
[09:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Frede: system..admin...synaptic
[09:32] <FFForever> arch linux had pidgin the beta release of pidgin the next day in pacman
[09:32] <FFForever> prici know any non official ones?
[09:32] <PriceChild> FFForever, there are backports but they won't have pidgin
[09:33] <blekos> the UUID of my HD changes (or changes in the linux file) so i cannot boot in linux
[09:33] <Frede> Btw I don't have an Internet connection on this machine either
[09:33] <PriceChild> FFForever, arch uses a rolling release, ubuntu doesn't
[09:33] <FFForever> i have enabled all the repo's in my sources.list :D
[09:33] <FFForever> i wish ubuntu would...
[09:34] <cooc> My Azureus uses 99% CPU power every other minute stalling all applications. My CPU is AMD64 4000+ and Ubuntu is Feisty Fawn. I tried looking it up on the forums but with no result. Can anyone help me with this?
[09:35] <dyrne> cooc: not very helpful but id suggest using deluge or transmission instead of az
[09:35] <legion_nux> maybe you should try to use some other bito clients
[09:35] <dyrne> cooc: utorrent works well using wine also
[09:36] <dyrne> cooc: are you sure sun jre is installed?
[09:36] <legion_nux> you have the choice deluge, ktorrent, qbittorent,...
[09:36] <marnik_> does anyone know what the problem might be: I had windows XP on laptop, resized with gparted to make room for ubuntu, rebooted (and let windows repair), booted in xp (everything was fine)
[09:36] <cooc> Hmm. That may be the final solution but I'm kind of fascinated by this particular problem and I want to try some solutions before giving up
[09:36] <marnik_> installed ubuntu, rebooted, everything works fine
[09:36] <cooc> dyrne, I'm not sure. How do I check this?
[09:36] <umteenth> um ... so it works
[09:36] <marnik_> hibernated in ubuntu, and booted in windows this mornning
[09:36] <devo> umteenth: Lol.
[09:36] <marnik_> and now, when I boot, I see "Grub loading" for a fraction of a second
[09:37] <marnik_> and the laptop reboots
[09:37] <marnik_> over and over and over
[09:37] <marnik_> I used the livecd to check my /boot grub files, but the menu.lst seems just fine
[09:37] <marnik_> any known bugs?
[09:38] <Jack_Sparrow> marnik_: you might look at super grub repair cd...
[09:38] <dyrne> cooc: i think it should be in /usr/lib/jvm so if ya ls /usr/lib/jvm you should see sun stuff not just the open jre but i hardly touch java so not sure
[09:38] <nios> hey, where can i get a nice working source.list ?
[09:38] <tgelter> do you guys know how I can add a graphic to the top of the screen during boot/shutdown like I've seen with other distros (gentoo for example)? I've turned off the ubuntu splash and enabled colored text, but can't figure that piece out
[09:38] <Jack_Sparrow> !easysource
[09:38] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[09:38] <cooc> dyrne, so it's not something I can check with apt-get?
[09:38] <mariqn> Someone knows program for downloading torrents ? (Ubuntu) ?
[09:39] <marnik_> Jack_Sparrow: any hints on where to start? Google has a lot of hits on "grub super repair"
[09:39] <mewt> mariqn, last one i used was azureus
[09:39] <FFForever> how do i make a deb?
[09:39] <Jack_Sparrow> marnik_: It is a bootable repair cd...
[09:39] <dyrne> cooc: yeah you can use dpkg -l| grep -i sun
[09:39] <mariqn> mewt thank you

[09:39] <nios> Jack_Sparrow: thanks man
[09:40] <Jack_Sparrow> marnik_: http://geocities.com/supergrubdisk/
[09:40] <Jack_Sparrow> nios: np
[09:40] <cooc> dyrne, now I'm confused. I can't find usr/lib/jvm and that command which you posted doesn't really do anything from the terminal. What am I doing wrong?
[09:40] <marnik_> Jack_Sparrow: could it be that windows tries to repair the MBR without telling me?
[09:41] <dyrne> cooc: nothing if that does give ya something it prob isnt installed follow this link:
[09:41] <umteenth> marnik_  -- no
[09:41] <CruX> hello
[09:41] <dyrne> !java | cooc
[09:41] <ubotu> cooc: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[09:41] <dyrne> cooc: just to be safe do a sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun  after you install it
[09:41] <umteenth> you would have to run fdisk /mbr or similar
[09:42] <Jack_Sparrow> marnik_: No telling what windows might try to do , but it usually only hits the mbr during install... is this XP?
[09:42] <cooc> Okay, I will look at this. Thank you for helping me, dyrne. Thanks for answering, legion_nux.
[09:42] <rockets> dyrne, no im wondering what application tells me to go install stuff that isnt there
[09:42] <CruX> where i can set disk io scheduler ? i wanna set anticipatory for all sata drives and noop for usb keys
[09:42] <legion_nux> no problem
[09:42] <rabiddachshund> my xorg broke. :/
[09:42] <barnydan> Anyone in here farmiliar with qdvdauthor?  I keep getting errors when I try to make my DVD with it. Could someone help me with the command lines that qdvdauthor generates?
[09:43] <rabiddachshund> I tried to add the 1280x800 resolution by following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto but it won't load up at all now.
[09:43] <nios> Jack_Sparrow: i still get problem
[09:43] <nios> http://pastebin.com/m5099396c
[09:43] <Jack_Sparrow> rabiddachshund: Can you explain what is broken or a description of the problem
[09:43] <nios> check there
[09:44] <Jack_Sparrow> nios: You didnt add the key for medibuntu
[09:44] <dyrne> rockets: oh, that'd be kina hacky
[09:44] <Pelo> barnydan,  do you realy need to use dvdauthor ? or would a more simple dvd app do you just as well ?
[09:44] <rabiddachshund> It gives me an error "caught signal 11. Server abort." and dumps me into a command line
[09:44] <dyrne> kinda
[09:44] <nios> how to add it?
[09:44] <rockets> dyrne, no, theres ALREADY an app that does that. im wondering what it is
[09:45] <Jack_Sparrow> nios: let me find the link.. it should be where you found the info onmedibuntu
[09:45] <rockets> dyrne, go type in the command for smoething you dont have installed, like foff and watch what happens
[09:45] <nios> plo
[09:45] <nios> oki*
[09:45] <rockets> or sl
[09:46] <Jack_Sparrow> nios: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu   about 1/3 down the page
[09:46] <rabiddachshund> I can view the detailed output but it doesn't detect any resolutions available.
[09:46] <Pelo> barnydan, ?
[09:46] <barnydan> Pelo I want to put a video in the background of the menu.
[09:46] <nios> great
[09:46] <Jack_Sparrow> nios: wget -q http://packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update
[09:46] <nios> thx
[09:47] <Jack_Sparrow> nios: that is assuming feisty
[09:47] <Pelo> barnydan, yeah ok  then the one I had in mind won'T do , it's more for your basic home stuff
[09:47] <barnydan> Pelo, I have DVDstyler working.  but it doesn't give me any options to add video background or change the look of buttons.
[09:47] <dyrne> rockets: im on debian atm so its not installed.  ive seen that though on my ubuntu box.
[09:47] <Jack_Sparrow> rabiddachshund: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:48] <Trash_> Test.
[09:48] <rabiddachshund> that just runs the autodetect script again, right?
[09:48] <barnydan> Pelo thats ok.  thanks for reponding to me.
[09:48] <Trash_> sweet
[09:48] <rabiddachshund> fyi, I'm dual booting vista/feisty so I have to reboot to get to linux.
[09:48] <tators> what distribution should I d/l to make the best postgres server
[09:48] <Jack_Sparrow> rabiddachshund: correct, just select your hardware or select vesa and max res of 1024x768 to get back in
[09:49] <Pelo> barnydan, I was gonna suggest devede but it only does a simple text menu with a png for a background,  no way (yet) to change any of the details
[09:49] <Tominator> hi
[09:49] <Tominator> Does anybody know, whether there ist a good gnome implementation of a speech recognition software (e.g. sphinx) for dictating to Open Office for example?
[09:49] <rabiddachshund> Do I just run that command by itself?
[09:49] <Jack_Sparrow> rabiddachshund: if you want you can try sudo nano and find a backup of your xorg
[09:50] <rabiddachshund> hm. ok. One last question though.
[09:50] <barnydan> Pelo,  yeah I have devede working aswell.  its a great app for converting any type of video into a dvd format, without thining about it.
[09:50] <rabiddachshund> that's the same command that's in the howto. What are the other 2 commands for?
[09:50] <LinuxMafia> hi
[09:50] <barnydan> thining = thinking lol
[09:50] <Jack_Sparrow> rabiddachshund: That is from a cli....
[09:50] <[Thom] > Why wouldn't SVN save a certificate even if I have accepted it (p)ermanently?
[09:50] <[Thom] > I know this isn't #SVN but they don't know in #SVN
[09:50] <rabiddachshund> cli?
[09:50] <Pelo> barnydan,  you can also use it to create your dvd file structure and basic menu,  then you can edit that with qdvdauthor
[09:51] <dyrne> Tominator: im not aware of any really good open speech recognition soft.
[09:51] <Jack_Sparrow> rabiddachshund: command line interface...  like a dos prompt
[09:51] <rabiddachshund> ah
[09:51] <LinuxMafia> any one knows how can i install older version of bcm43xx-fwcutter
[09:51] <LinuxMafia> it fails to install
[09:51] <Tominator> dyrne: Oh well... that's a pitty... :-/
[09:51] <rabiddachshund> ok. Thanks!
[09:51] <LinuxMafia> and any thing i want to install gives me error because of bcm43xx-fwcutter
[09:52] <effie_jayx> !automatix
[09:52] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[09:52] <Metal03> WOW!  Ok...  I had a major crash!!  I typed in "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable" and then rebooted and then my Xserver couldn't start!!  I had to manually reconfigure it, and now my resolution and everything needs to be reconfigured...  I need to install drivers for my Nvidia EN7900GT video card...  anyone can help so I don't have issues like that AGAIN!!
[09:52] <Pelo> barnydan, this might help   http://qdvdauthor.sourceforge.net/
[09:52] <barnydan> Pelo do I need to have a basic menu to use with qdvdauthor?  I've just been trying to make a menu starting from scratch.
[09:52] <[Thom] > Anyone?
[09:53] <dyrne> Tominator: its one of those things we really could use someone stepping up and giving a grant or something for dev work.
[09:53] <Pelo> barnydan, I expect you can do both,  I was just thinking that if you started from something that already existed and edited what you wanted it would just make things simpler
[09:54] <LinuxMafia> any one?
[09:54] <codeshah> hey guys: I tried loading the livecd on my precision m4300... but after the screen with ubuntu & the bar going left & right, it just hung with a cursor... I tried both 7 and 6.06 versinos on the 6.06 one it said decompressing... ok... booting ... that's it
[09:54] <codeshah> any ideas?
[09:54] <Tominator> dyrne: well yeah, but I'm not the right one :) I have no idea of linux-coding :D
[09:54] <Jack_Sparrow> LinuxMafia: what version do you have now?
[09:54] <LinuxMafia> Jack_Sparrow, i just installed ubuntu
[09:55] <Pelo> barnydan, from what I,ve seen of he structure created for menues by the lastest devede (6.31 I thnk),  the background image is recoded as a mpeg, so substituting any mpeg (ie a movie) would probably work , the buttons I don'T know about
[09:55] <Jack_Sparrow> LinuxMafia: What version... feisty?
[09:55] <LinuxMafia> Jack_Sparrow, but now any thing i want to install i get error that is related to it
[09:55] <LinuxMafia> Jack_Sparrow, yes
[09:55] <Trash_> How do you know which version?
[09:55] <barnydan> Pelo that is interesting.
[09:56] <barnydan> Pelo though this qdvdauthor should work.  the Tutorials make it look so simple!
[09:56] <Jack_Sparrow> LinuxMafia: What all have you run or installed, that usually works quite well
[09:56] <Jack_Sparrow> LinuxMafia: Did you try envy or automatix scripts...  (Both very bad ideas)
[09:56] <barnydan> Pelo though the script that it generates is already looking odd to me.  its calling for files that don't exist.
[09:56] <badz> has anyone has issues getting compiz to work with an ati x800 aiw + xgl on feisty??
[09:56] <Pelo> barnie, should there is probably just a little bit of cody that you have wrong
[09:56] <LinuxMafia> Jack_Sparrow, when i run "sudo apt-get install unrar-free" i get this
[09:57] <neverblue> badz, try in #ubuntu-effects
[09:57] <Pelo> barnydan, can I get an exemple ?
[09:57] <LinuxMafia> dpkg: error processing bcm43xx-fwcutter (--configure):
[09:57] <LinuxMafia>  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[09:57] <badz> thanks neverblue
[09:57] <Pelo> barnydan, of a file name
[09:57] <LinuxMafia> Jack_Sparrow, ^^
[09:57] <neverblue> \np
[09:57] <barnydan> Pelo, just an example  "mencoder -oac pcm -ovc lavc -ss 00:00:00 -endpos 00:00:05 -o "/tmp/Unnamed/Main Menu VMGM/background/clip.avi" "/tmp/Unnamed/Main Menu VMGM/background/clean.avi""  It never generated these files, and I never gave them to it.
[09:58] <barnydan> pelo do you want me to send you the whole script.
[09:58] <Jack_Sparrow> LinuxMafia: Try again in synaptic and see if you can get more details on the error
[09:58] <Pelo> barnydan, those names might just be place holder for you to change for the correct files when you have them
[09:58] <LinuxMafia> Jack_Sparrow, synapttic?
[09:58] <LinuxMafia> Jack_Sparrow, Connecting to boredklink.googlepages.com|72.14.203.118|:80... connected.HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found
[09:58] <tyoc> hey people, I have burned the super GRUB disk, tryied the hints in "recovering GRUB" an not get my system back...
[09:58] <Jack_Sparrow> LinuxMafia: system admin synaptic.. and you did not answer my earlier question..
[09:59] <DigeratiX> i have a folder FULL of good backgrounds and want them to be available to all users when they click on CHange Background, where was it that I need to copy them too?
[09:59] <tyoc> I still get error 21 for GRUB
[09:59] <barnydan> Pelo none of the tutorials say anything about editing these scripts. unless I over looked that part.
[09:59] <Pelo> barnydan,  I wouldn't know what I am looking at, I took one look at qdvdauthor a long time ago and decided it was so much more then I realy needed ( or wanted_
[09:59] <LinuxMafia> Jack_Sparrow, no , is the asnwer
[09:59] <tyoc> I think I will reinstall Ubuntu again... I have some extra free space in my disk...
[09:59] <barnydan> Pelo,  D'oh!  its exacly what I'm looking for, but its not working. :(
[10:00] <Pelo> barnydan, personnaly I am surprised to see filenames as .avi in a dvd script I thought they were all supose to be .vob or somesuch
[10:00] <Jack_Sparrow> LinuxMafia: I am leaving for lunch, maybe someone else will have an answer
[10:00] <LinuxMafia> Jack_Sparrow, thanks
[10:00] <barnydan> Pelo, I'm thinking about trying to find a tutorial on how to do these menu's manualy.
[10:00] <barnydan> Pelo same here.  I expected *.vob, or *.mp2 or *.mpg
[10:00] <Pelo> barnydan,  dvdauthor is the cli version of qdvdauthor, you might want to look into that
[10:00] <barnydan> Pelo, but the thing is, when I run the script, it just says those files are not found.
[10:01] <el_taco> what's a good video editor for linux. I have an mpg that I need to optimize for the web
[10:01] <barnydan> cli?  command line?
[10:02] <Pelo> barnydan,  take something you have and rename it to match those files and copy them to the specified dir  see what happens when you run the script  that will at least give you an idea of what 's what
[10:02] <barnydan> Pelo is cli short for command line
[10:02] <Pelo> barnydan,   Command Line Interface
[10:02] <barnydan> Pelo, ok thanks.  I guess I'm still a noob.
[10:03] <Pelo> barnydan, we're all noobs , about some stuff
[10:03] <kane77> anybody uses powertop?
[10:04] <mike3_> ohhhhhhh bannanas
[10:04] <barnydan> Pelo sorry, I didn't put your name that one question, so I typed it again.  Noticing how it highlights when you adress my name.
[10:04] <Pelo> barnydan, like I said,  make a couple of avi sample files and rename them to the files specified that you donT' have , make them each a different thing so you can tell them apart  so you will know which is which and what they do in the script
[10:04] <tom__> al_taco: cinelerra is pretty industrial. Seems there may be Ubuntu issues.
[10:04] <Pelo> barnydan,  but I am guessing they are just placeholder for something you need to specify afterward
[10:05] <kane77> why does power top say "no ACPI power usage estimate available" what do I need to configure?
[10:05] <Pelo> barnydan,  as in qdvdauthor is there to generate the script not to encode the dvd files
[10:05] <moi-meme> greetings, I am running Vista/Ubuntu and have a couple issues: I tried to reinstall Ubuntu and it simply added another partition and now I have three partitions on the HD rather than overwriting the original Ubuntu installation. Any ideas?
[10:05] <ConfidentiaL> is it best to use the nvidia restricted drivers or nvidia's binary drivers for best performance?
[10:05] <LinuxMafia> all :any one can tell me how can i delete list of packages want to be in installed from dpkg list?
[10:05] <stdin> kane77: you need to not have the power cable in
[10:05] <booster_> hey guys...i have a question...my linux machine running a p3 cpu with 512mb of ram.....is locking up...any way to figure out why???
[10:06] <Force> Hi
[10:06] <barnydan> Pelo ok I'll give that a shot.   Thanks for helping me.   I'll probably be looking into dvdauthor cli.  I'm going to slowly chip away at this for the rest of the day.
[10:06] <dom_> how do i install tar.bz2?
[10:06] <Pelo> moi-meme,  you probably needed to use the manual partitionning option and specify what went were,  ubuntu is n't windows it doesn't automaticaly overwrite everything else
[10:06] <LinuxMafia> some one
[10:06] <Force> does anyone of you know how to add fvwm-crystal to the window-managers?
[10:06] <stdin> dom_: is's an archive, you have to extract it
[10:07] <kane77> stdin, oh, ok :)... also it says something about nodetailed statistics and CONFIG_TIMER_STATS in kernel...
[10:07] <Pelo> barnydan, it does sound like a nice little project
[10:07] <moi-meme> ok. thanks. other versions of Linux would overwrite anything you asked it to
[10:07] <DigeratiX> i have a folder FULL of good backgrounds and want them to be available to all users when they click on CHange Background, where was it that I need to copy them too?
[10:07] <dom_> stdin: so i open it with the archive thing, then extract it?
[10:07] <stdin> kane77: you need to be running a 2.6.22 kernel to use it
[10:07] <stdin> dom_: yeah, there then should be some instructions in there

[10:08] <bruenig> !alsa
[10:08] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[10:08] <Jowi> !clone | LinuxMafia (is this what you meant?)
[10:08] <ubotu> LinuxMafia (is this what you meant?): To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate

[10:28] <codeshah> pelo, it's an nvidia
[10:28] <Pelo> PriceChild, k , I'll shut up now
[10:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy | JohnStys
[10:29] <PriceChild> Pelo, I hate this error
[10:29] <codeshah> pelo, it's 256MB card I believe... let me check
[10:29] <Metal03> Ok, I really need help...  I tried to install drivers for my Nvidia video card and xserver wouldn't start...  I used "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and now it works but it's crappy!!!  I need help to correct all I've done and make sure I now upgrade and install my video card drivers properly!!  (I only have 800x600 resolution available!!  please HELP!!  I have a Asus Nvidia GeForce EN7900GT...  I shouldn't have only 800x600!! h
[10:29] <Jack_Sparrow> PriceChild: You are really quick today
[10:29] <PriceChild> codeshah, this is feisty?
[10:29] <Yarcanox> Peol it doesn't work. I tried mounting it, but nothing happens. writing on /dev/fd0 with the image copying command line tool dd still doesn't work. I can't open the folder too. How cna I fidn out the last device that has been plugged in? (no matter if it has been mounted or not)
[10:29] <Yarcanox> this way I could try to find out which device it is
[10:29] <PriceChild> !test
[10:29] <ubotu> failed
[10:29] <Pelo> codeshah, regardless of wheter or not it is the video card causeing this problem you should use the alternate install cd to install on a computer using a nvidia video card
[10:29] <codeshah>  pelo, nvidia quadro fx 360m, 512M turbo cache (256 Dedicated)
[10:29] <JohnStys> yah whats this deal with envy, is it bad?
[10:30] <JohnStys> i just dont know what else to do
[10:30] <PriceChild> !envy
[10:30] <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!
[10:30] <codeshah> pelo, thanks . i didn't know that . let me do some reading then .
[10:30] <JohnStys> i have had this problem for like 2 months now
[10:30] <DeadToRights> ok i have a picture of my problem, i cant see users list if anyone have anyidea on how to help me please feel free to help: this is the problem: http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/9407/screenshotcz6.png
[10:30] <Pelo> Yarcanox,  I suggest you try searching for usb floppy or for the model of your drive in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[10:30] <RoboticTao> Metal03: Did you install the Nvidia drivers with sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx?
[10:30] <zero^> !envy > /dev/null
[10:30] <Yarcanox> ok.
[10:30] <JohnStys> huh????
[10:30] <Yarcanox> I'll ask later how to get the last plugged-in device
[10:30] <Ray_at_UW> !linuxcommands
[10:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about linuxcommands - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:30] <Yarcanox> watching film now...
[10:31] <RoboticTao> Metal03: If you do have the driver installed you can edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and change the driver used from "vesa" to "Nvidia" and it will work.
[10:31] <Ray_at_UW> !regularexpressions
[10:31] <PriceChild> RoboticTao, no capital letters
[10:31] <codeshah> pelo, so the alternate cd is text based ... will this mean I will have to do a lot of headscratching after to get desktop working? :)
[10:31] <DeadToRights> anyone please help me:http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/9407/screenshotcz6.png
[10:31] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnStys: You probably have had the problem as long ago as you tried envy
[10:31] <RoboticTao> PriceChild: oh yeah, whoops
[10:31] <Pelo> codeshah, no need to read  the alternate install cd works with a text based intaller,  ( no live desktop) , the problem is that ubuntu does not include nvidia drivers out of the box because they are not FOSS ,  you just have to install them after
[10:31] <sorush21> what about my keyboard problem
[10:31] <PriceChild> codeshah, I think it'll just work fine... just a problem with the live cd iirc...
[10:31] <PriceChild> codeshah, I don't know though :)
[10:32] <codeshah> ok, thanks . Ill give it a shot
[10:32] <Pelo> codeshah, the alternate cd will install a vesa driver temporaraly, you'll get the desktop after the installation no problem
[10:32] <RoboticTao> Metal03: So change it from "vesa" to "nvidia"
[10:32] <Metal03> RoboticTao : I installed it with the synapsis and then (as said in the info) type "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable"  That's when I couldn't reboot
[10:32] <JohnStys> i just tried envy today and the same thing happened tht always happed, xsever chrash
[10:33] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnStys: What drivers are you trying to install and where did they come from
[10:33] <JohnStys> i have tried all diff kinds
[10:33] <DeadToRights> no one can help me with that?
[10:33] <Pelo> JohnStys, look up your card model in here maybe there is a note on it   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[10:33] <DeadToRights> please?
[10:33] <JohnStys> from official ATI website
[10:33] <Pelo> DeadToRights, it's a busy channel , can you please restate your problem , consicely
[10:34] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnStys: Ok.. trying to install nvidia anything and ati drivers... will never work
[10:34] <DeadToRights> ok i have a picture of my problem, i cant see users list if anyone have anyidea on how to help me please feel free to help: this is the problem: http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/9407/screenshotcz6.png

[10:37] <JohnStys> i just want this to work!!!!!!!1
[10:37] <DeadToRights> pelo, not working i cant move anything.. as you can see in the picture.
[10:37] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnStys: Since you already installed envy.. I would suggest a fresh install and follow the instructions/link I gave you
[10:37] <gatotamy> hola
[10:37] <Bsims> Ray_at_UW: or cheat and do grep "a|b" file
[10:37] <JohnStys> what are you talking anbout a nvidea config app?
[10:37] <JohnStys> i never used one of those
[10:37] <askand>  How do I turn of "snappines" in compiz?
[10:37] <Bsims> Does the current amarok work with the new ipods announced the other day?
[10:37] <Pelo> DeadToRights,  you are using try right clicking all over the place see if you have a menu with display options
[10:37] <JohnStys> damn
[10:37] <cineva> I can't save the modifications I've made to /etc/X11/xorg.conf. It says that I don't have permission. I am running a wubi installed version of ubuntu and it didn't asked or talled me anything about the root account. Is there a workaround?
[10:38] <Pelo> DeadToRights,  btw  xchat-gnome sucks ,  install xchat instead
[10:38] <JohnStys> i have installed this OS like 14 times today!!!!!! very user unfriendly
[10:38] <Bsims> cineva: make them again this time with sudo vi what /path/to/whatever
[10:38] <DeadToRights> i dont really understand in all of this
[10:38] <DeadToRights> but ill try installing other thing
[10:38] <Pelo> JohnStys,   when you first instal do you get a working desktop ?
[10:39] <JohnStys> i will try to reinstall os (again) and follow those instructions, but i am sure the same thing will happen and i will have to install OS again
[10:39] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnStys: Then I must have misread something... ... the answer is still the same... since you have installed envy... I cant help.. and you should start with a fresh install and follow the link.
[10:39] <JohnStys> yes i get a working desktop
[10:39] <veynom> why is my XP partition mounted as read-only, and how can i change it?
[10:39] <cineva> make what again?
[10:39] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnStys: After base install.  do a full backup... so you wont need to reinstall again.
[10:39] <JohnStys> desktop work but it is using my onboard grahics controller
[10:39] <Pelo> JohnStys, and did you frist try to use the restricted drivers in  menu > system > admin > restricted drivers ?
[10:39] <JohnStys> i want to use the one i baught
[10:39] <Bsims> veynom: ntfs write support is experimental
[10:40] <Bsims> veynom: sometimes it works and sometimes it eats your drive and molests your pets
[10:40] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnStys: Have you disabled the onboard in the bios?
[10:40] <JohnStys> yes and the system crashes on reboot
[10:40] <Pelo> JohnStys,  then  disable your onboard and install using the alternate insatll cd
[10:40] <doddi> anyone that can hopefully help me with a SATA drive issue? ill ask anyway.......
[10:40] <Ray_at_UW> Bsims: none of those ways work. I can grep for a separately and get results, and grep for b separately and get results.  But when I try "a|b" I get nothing, and when I try a\|b I get nothing as well...
[10:40] <JohnStys> cant disable onboard, onls set it down from 32 meg to 16 meg
[10:40] <vince__> hi all
[10:40] <Ray_at_UW> bsisms: bash hates me. :(
[10:40] <Bsims> Hrm Ray_at_UW let me do some googling
[10:41] <nanonyme> use zsh?
[10:41] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnStys: I have never seen a system that would not let you disable the onboard card, either in the bios or with a jumper on the board
[10:41] <Pelo> JohnStys, and if it crashes on reboot, don'T reinstall just boot the recovery mode and type   sudo dpkg-reconfigure  xserver-xorg , then select the vesa driver
[10:41] <Ray_at_UW> bsims: I'll google too. >.>
[10:41] <JohnStys> however i did set my primary graphic to be the PCI one
[10:41] <newubuntuser> i want to install the ubuntu lamp server, can i install it alongside the desktop, or do i need to totally reinstall/reformating this drive and then install the gui?
[10:41] <cineva> is there a default password for the root account?
[10:41] <JohnStys> no change
[10:41] <Jack_Sparrow> !root
[10:41] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[10:41] <vince__> does some body have 1 minute to help me : my wifi dongle USB stoping at randoe time

[10:42] <vince__> I think it is the USB driver ..?
[10:42] <Doctor_Nick> cineva: you can change the root password by doing 'sudo passwd', but its not recommended

[10:43] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnStys: IT looks like your hardware is not configured correctly... You should be able to disable the onboard card and get the boot screen even with no os...  if you dont get that then everything from there will be wrong

[10:45] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnStys: If you pull the add on card and do an install things will go fine...   If you correctly install and setup your hardware for the second card everything will be fine..
[10:45] <Ray_at_UW> Bsims: Hmm... That doesn't seem very "superonelinepowerful" to me. >.> Maybe egrep will help. Thanks for your help. :) I'll keep looking.

[10:53] <jsg> I'm having problems getting audio capture to work. It doesn't work in skype playback (I know there is an issue with the audio capture program in fiesty).  Before I have to recompile the kernel or kernel modules as dictated by the guides in : http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=420&OSID=45&CatID=3140&SubCatID=154             I wanted to know if there was anything else I can do.
[10:53] <PriceChild> hunteke, an incredible amount of testing goes into each iso
[10:53] <stavrosopsilos> make menuconfig gives me a bunch of errors, what should I do?
[10:53] <PriceChild> stavrosopsilos, compiling a kernel?
[10:53] <hunteke> oh. . . do you have a link to more reading about that so that I don't have to keep taking up your time?

[10:56] <brian_> What is there an advantage with compiz fusion over beryl? or is one just as good as the other???
[10:56] <UrbenLegend> beryl and compiz merged
[10:56] <UrbenLegend> to create compiz fusion
[10:56] <jsg> brian: compiz fusion is the future, the merging of the two projects and a more streamlined design...
[10:56] <UrbenLegend> so think of compiz fusion as the new one, GO AND GET IT
[10:57] <PriceChild> hunteke, https://iso.qa.stgraber.org/ is where the iso testing happens
[10:57] <jsg> brian: check wikipedia for more
[10:57] <jsg> anyone help with my sound issue?
[10:57] <brian_> should I switch from beryl to compiz fusion? would you guys recommend that?

[11:00] <Spee_Der> Good afternoon everyone.
[11:00] <hooT> Jack_Sparrow: could you elaborate? I'm at my whits end trying
[11:00] <Jack_Sparrow> hooT: Just select ubuntu desktop under options where you login and set to default
[11:00] <mocha> I need something that can scan directories and sub-directories and generate a jewel case cover

[11:00] <mtx1> i have an amd 64 939 nvidia chipset system....i am upgrading to a am2 nvidia chipset....will i need to reinstall ubuntu or should it work out of box?
[11:00] <harry> hi - do you know how to start apps after crash automatically?
[11:00] <gnuskool> Spee_Der: aloha
[11:00] <Vorbote> hooT: "sudo dpkg remove libqt3-mt" is a start.
[11:01] <jsg> gnuskool: do you know a definitive way to check the microphone?
[11:01] <hooT> Jack_Sparrow: I tried that, and I still have KDE applications under the menues (Terminal, notepad and a few others) that I can't rid myself of no madder what
[11:01] <jsg> in case I'm missing something simple
[11:01] <Spee_Der> gnuskool, aloha....  how's things on the island ?
[11:01] <thedash> is there any way to make the mail-notification plugin for Evolution to always display the 'new mail' icon if there are unread messages, instead of just the newest one ?
[11:01] <serhat> hi
[11:01] <Jack_Sparrow> hooT: if ubuntu desktop is now your default use synaptic or whatever to uninstall kubuntu-desktop
[11:02] <Jack_Sparrow> hooT: terminal is not a kde app
[11:02] <mbah> jhgligh
[11:03] <jsg> Going to try install audacity to see if the microphone works there.
[11:04] <jsg> It's a frickin pain that if I need to compile sound modules etc, that this isn't already done by manufacturers
[11:04] <gnuskool> jsg, nah im used to playback issues, but lately ppl have mic problems
[11:04] <grayhane> how can I burn a CD image of a Audio CD to my hard drive ?
[11:04] <jsg> their argument would probably be a lack of build machines for each and every linux distro & kernel combinatino

[11:15] <clouder> I installed lm-sensors, and it told me to add some stuff into /etc/modules  How do I get those modules loaded?  Is there a command I can run or do I just have to reboot?
[11:15] <DeadToRights> i cant see hebrew on ubuntu..
[11:15] <Ray_at_UW> booster_: more details please?
[11:15] <bruenig> hmm
[11:15] <gnuskool> booster_: what do the logs say?
[11:15] <DeadToRights> installed and everything but yet cant see
[11:15] <awilkins> Ok, OOo Impress crashes when you start a slideshow
[11:15] <erUSUL> clouder: with 'sudo modprobe modulename'
[11:16] <harry_> @clouder: sensors at terminal
[11:16] <awilkins> That's a bit of a deal breaker with wifey
[11:16] <harry_> it should run fine
[11:16] <Aminux> can i run windows games in ubuntu?
[11:16] <Widget> is this the right channel to ask about wifi type stuff like wpa?
[11:16] <booster_> well im running a p3 cpu with 512 mb ram.....and im using Ubuntu 7.04 as my os....and it freezes up....like locks up i cant figure it out
[11:17] <awilkins> Aminux: With limited success using Wine and the like, yes
[11:17] <harry_> wow eg run fine under wine - dx games wont run
[11:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Aminux: Not natively.. but there are ways...
[11:17] <Aminux> but they have to be installed in ubuntu?
[11:17] <jsg> audacity gives me an error when I select alsa as source and not oss... that doesn't help me much
[11:17] <clouder> erUSUL: thanks, you too harry_
[11:18] <erUSUL> !wine | Aminux
[11:18] <gnuskool> booster_: got any usb or external HDs connected?, does it fix itself, or how do you get it to normal?
[11:18] <ubotu> Aminux: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:18] <kkathman> lol OSS is pretty defunct iirc :)
[11:18] <erUSUL> clouder: np
[11:18] <Ray_at_UW> booster_: When doe sit lock up?
[11:18] <Aminux> that is what is keeping me from using ubuntu
[11:18] <Aminux> ive tried wine
[11:18] <Ray_at_UW> Aminux: Probably want to stick with dual boot for games.
[11:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Aminux: How about dual booting..
[11:18] <Aminux> but some games simply dont work
[11:18] <stavrosopsilos> join/ #ubuntu-gr
[11:18] <awilkins> Aminux: Yeah, I'd dual boot for games too
[11:18] <veynom> !API
[11:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about api - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:18] <PriceChild> Aminux, then run them on windows
[11:18] <Aminux> yeah
[11:18] <Aminux> thats what i do
[11:19] <Aminux> but its a shame
[11:19] <booster_> i have to press the power button to turn it off....i had a 2nd hdd in the case...but it was a win xp disk..i took it out to see if it was my problem
[11:19] <xamox> anyone know why my extra drives you need to be root to access them? how can I make it so that anyone can read/write to my extra drives (they are ext3 format already)
[11:19] <awilkins> I mean, it's a shame, I wish more games houses would port their games to Linux
[11:19] <Ray_at_UW> booster_: So it locks up during shut-down?
[11:19] <Aminux> yeah
[11:19] <Ray_at_UW> awilkins: Too bad that's not cost effective. Hardly any linux users out there.
[11:19] <booster_> no it just locks up when im running it...like i was on here a lil while ago asking for help and it did it to me again
[11:20] <Ray_at_UW> booster_: What kind of lock? no responses to any input?
[11:20] <ninjabooty> I'm willing to develope for open platforms exclusively
[11:20] <Widget> the wpa howto for ubuntu says that I should be able to select WPA for my wifi card (prism54) but I can't.  it works manually with wpa_supplicant tho
[11:20] <booster_> no mouse movement no key strokes just locks up
[11:20] <Ray_at_UW> booster_: And this didn't happen in windows?
[11:21] <ninjabooty> but more than anything I need a stable distro that I can recommend to people who don't know jack about computers
[11:21] <ninjabooty> especially when those people are running Pentium Klamath cores ,etc
[11:21] <Ray_at_UW> ninjabooty: Ubuntu is out then. Considering you can't even make desktop shortcuts via the GUI
[11:21] <jsg> alsamixer is all max volumes :(
[11:22] <booster_> umm no i dont think i ever had that problem with windows....i have 2 hdds but i took the one with the windows xp out so now all i have is the linux hdd in the tower
[11:22] <kkathman> Ray_at_UW:  of course you can make shortcuts - who said you couldnt ?
[11:22] <erUSUL> xamox: make folders in the extra drives and make that folderes accesable by the useres you want
[11:23] <ninjabooty> I think the phrase "plug and play" actually means something to people who don't know the first thing about it
[11:23] <Ray_at_UW> kkathman: I haven't been able to figure out how to make shortcuts to the desktop with the GUI
[11:23] <kkathman> Ray_at_UW:  what exactly are you trying to do??
[11:23] <Pc_Dark> is there an aptitude/apt-get for compiz-fusion
[11:23] <stavrosopsilos> I'm running ubuntu, I downloaded the most recent kernel from kernel.org and now I want build it from source in UML

[11:24] <Ray_at_UW> kkathman: I want to make a shortcut to it and put the shortcut on the desktop
[11:24] <erUSUL> stavrosopsilos: User mode linux?
[11:24] <stavrosopsilos> erUSUL yup
[11:24] <Jack_Sparrow> booster_: You might try dmesg in a terminal and scroll back and try to find the error...
[11:24] <kkathman> Ray_at_UW:  ok so basically you want an icon on the desktop to point to a mounted drive?
[11:24] <T3hMikey> My sound has decided to spontaneously stop working, and I have no idea why. Does anyone have any ideas what I might have done?
[11:24] <ninjabooty> is there an ubuntu for people who only want a 25MB install?

[11:35] <janux-xmind> can someone help me to use xen

[11:35] <gnuskool> jsg, arecord is a command line recorder, run it in term

[11:37] <Jowi> ward_, let him start up in rescue mode (also called failsafe, should give him a login prompt at least) and perhaps comment out the usage of keys in proftpd.conf? see if it boots at least.
[11:37] <ward_> Jowi, he isntalled the CLI version
[11:38] <danielronin> can anyone assist in making GRUB recognize another distro i just installed (everthing except bootloader)
[11:38] <Jowi> ward_, i don't mind which version he installed.
[11:38] <ward_> Jowi, so there's no menu for recorvery, but he just decided to install again on a larger disk

[11:46] <arooni__> stdin, E: Package w32codecs has no installation candidate
[11:46] <r30> stuff i copied earlier onto this drive is disappearing like crazy
[11:46] <arooni__> stdin, i have gutsy; is that the reason why?

[11:52] <Creed> Why cant automatic installers be made for Fusion :( Much better to get people to switch if all they have to do is run an installer program.

[11:53] <bobodclown> MitchM: thx
[11:53] <MitchM> bobodclown, rgr - yw
[11:53] <PriceChild> Creed, fusion is alpha software and should not be a reason to get oeople to switch to ubuntu
[11:53] <stdin> arooni__: it's probably buffering
[11:53] <logan_> how do I get to xorg.conf?
[11:54] <danielronin> gnuskool: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36632/
[11:54] <Creed> lol Was just using Fusion as an example...Apple has it down with .app packages, why not ubuntu? (yeah I know about .deb's but theyre not available for stuff that will actually make people want to switch).
[11:54] <arooni__> stdin, do i need to resatrt
[11:54] <mantynel> JOIN
[11:54] <nich2chien_> logan_: locate xorg.conf
[11:54] <stdin> arooni__: shouldn't have to
[11:54] <Creed> logan_, it would be easier to reconfigure X as messing with xorg.conf is a last resort.
[11:54] <stdin> logan_: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the location

[11:55] <newubuntuser> ive been looking without anyfinds of a lamp package, so i guess i need to download the individual packages. is this true?
[11:55] <stdin> arooni__: that's because some work, some don't, depends on the exact codec
[11:55] <logan_> Now when I try to get back into it, it says DbDriver "config" config.dat is locked by another process
[11:55] <Creed> stefg, Im not here to start a fight, Im just telling others about my view, if people dont wanna listen then dont, Im not forcing anyone to.
[11:56] <stdin> newubuntuser: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[11:56] <gnuskool> danielronin: were you given the 'initialize' option when setting up bt2 partition?
[11:56] <youknowme> I'me having overclocking problems with my GeForce 7300 using coolbits, the settings don't stick. Help?
[11:56] <kkathman> logan_:  did you try a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[11:56] <Pici> youknowme: ##windows
[11:57] <danielronin> i set up an ext2 partition with qtpartd and changed it to ext3 with command, never encountered 'initialize' option
[11:57] <logan_> Yes, I tried that and it froze while I was doing it, and now I cant get back into it.
[11:57] <youknowme> Pici I'm not running windows
[11:57] <danielronin> actually, i think it might be the initrd that's messing it up
[11:57] <logan_> Isn't there a hotkey for restarting x
[11:57] <stefg> Creed: no fight intended... it's just that some concepts are so ingenius that they aren't comprehensible after 3 months of use. Ubuntu usses packages and a package manager. and for a reason
[11:57] <kkathman> logan_:  well ctrl-alt-backspace
[11:58] <stdin> logan_: yes, but it's not a "hotkey" and not a clean way to do it
[11:58] <Pici> youknowme: Hrm. I guess coolbits does exist for Linux, sorry.
[11:58] <youknowme> logan_, Crtl +Alt+ bcksp is one way to do it. I'm pretty sure at least.

[12:00] <Euphidime> I'm having a problem with my mouse, and it's driving me absolutely insane. I can use the scroll wheel to scroll up/down in windows, but I can't use it as a "middle click" when I press down on it. Any idea what would cause that?
[12:00] <MaxMtp> where can I find check system log for messages from 'loadndisdriver'
[12:00] <Pici> youknowme: I'm obviously not familiar with it, I dont think I could be of much help
[12:00] <kkathman> Euphidime:  what do you want that middle click to do?
[12:01] <kkathman> Euphidime:  mine defaults to "paste"
[12:01] <Euphidime> kkathman: The same thing it does in Win*, I suppose. Like, if I middle click tabs in Firefox it closes them. And if I middle click URLs it opens them in new tabs.
[12:01] <Euphidime> That's all I really used it for.
[12:01] <kkathman> Euphidime:  you may have to configure those specifically in the applications
[12:01] <Aminux> are there any good games for ubuntu?
[12:01] <danielronin> gnuskool: i just made a change to menu.lst, i removed the initrd line, and gave it the savedefault and boot options, gonna give it a go
[12:02] <elzbal> Euphidme: Middle-click is even more useful on Unix/Linux... if you hightlight something, it "copies", and middle-click will paste.  :)
[12:02] <Euphidime> elzbal: Not for me
[12:02] <Euphidime> It's just not registering the middle click at all
[12:02] <psiko_> for me copies
