[12:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs-progs - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:05] <BoSJo> stefg : thanks :-)
[12:06] <Braxt> hey all I'm trying to install unrar, but the terminal says its been obsoleted. what should I try?
[12:06] <Euphidime> I should note that pressing both left/right mouse buttons at the same time to simulate a middle click works, and does what I expect it to. It just doesn't work with the mouse wheel.

[12:08] <unagi> anyone know how to get the battery monitor to display more accurate results of how long you have left?
[12:08] <Slart> Otacon22: try typing "file yourimagefile". you'll get a short description of the file
[12:08] <Nighthawk420> hey everyone
[12:08] <Nighthawk420> happy to say yall helped me get ubuntu up and running
[12:08] <Nighthawk420> im on it now and running wireless
[12:09] <Slart> Nighthawk420: sweeet.. we'll refer all questions about wireless to you then ;)
[12:09] <shwouchk> hi
[12:09] <codeshah> Hey guys: it seems my NVIDIA FX Quadro 360M is not supported by Ubuntu??? ... What should I do ...
[12:09] <shwouchk> Is there a way to install ubuntu w/o a CDROM drive?
[12:09] <codeshah> It says chipset unknown nvidia chip found, and I don't see it on the list of supported items
[12:09] <stefg> !nvidia
[12:09] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:10] <scguy318> shwouchk: network boot, perhaps USB
[12:10] <Nighthawk420> lol Slart... all i will tell in return is Update when you start up ubuntu for the first time and they will have an update hehe
[12:10] <Slart> shwouchk: I suppose you could install it from a USB-memory stick if you really really wanted
[12:10] <codeshah> Im wondering if I can at least get into the visual desktop X system ... right now I'm in command line hrrmpf
[12:10] <Nighthawk420> codeshah that will fix ya up
[12:10] <codeshah> nighthawk420, thanks
[12:10] <Slart> Nighthawk420: hehe.. whatever works =)
[12:10] <Nighthawk420> make sure u have an eithernet connection while your doing it tho
[12:10] <Nighthawk420> lol slart
[12:10] <shwouchk> slart, scguy318: I dont think this mobo supports booting from USB, but theres PXE available
[12:10] <casio_> v
[12:11] <scguy318> shwouchk: i suppose you could setup another machine for network boot, some info in Ubuntu Wiki i thik
[12:11] <shwouchk> Does anyone here run an ubuntu server btw? and would recommend it?
[12:11] <Slart> codeshah: you should be able to use the open source nvidia driver.. you won't get accelerated 3d though.. but it should work for a regular office desktop
[12:11] <cineva> does anyone know how to stop the X Server ?
[12:11] <psiko_> Otacon22, "ls" in the directory tath contains the image file
[12:11] <scguy318> shwouchk: the Ubuntu Wiki covers other alternative methods
[12:11] <scguy318> cineva: stop it completely or reboot?
[12:11] <codeshah> slart, thanks, I'm just going through this binary driver tutorial
[12:12] <scguy318> cineva: to stop it, do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop i think
[12:12] <shwouchk> hmmm
[12:12] <codeshah> nighthawk420, the instructions on the binary driver page assumes I'm in Gnome .. Im in command line right now .. how do I get into X?
[12:12] <shwouchk> actually, is there a way to convert debian to ubuntu?
[12:12] <stefg> shwouchk: no
[12:12] <codeshah> crap, my card is not in http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9755/README/appendix-a.html
[12:13] <Slart> shwouchk: I don't really know how the ubuntu installer works.. perhaps it can be run from just about anything.. perhaps it *has* to be a cd... my uninformed guess is that it will work from anything you can boot from.. it might take a lot of work but I'd say it can be done
[12:13] <psiko_> shwouchk, im using ubuntu server as http server w/ php and mysql... for me its great..
[12:13] <Nighthawk420> get it from the repos
[12:13] <Nighthawk420> hey question myself yall how do i turn of the system beep
[12:13] <shwouchk> psiko_: home server or prod?
[12:13] <Slart> codeshah: the nvidia binary driver install says you have to be in gnome? hmm.. what does it tell you to do in gnome?
[12:14] <psiko_> shwouchk, home...
[12:14] <codeshah> slart, sorry not gnome but it says I go to "System" -> "Administration" etc
[12:14] <Nighthawk420> codeshah you dont have to be in gnome believe me I was stuck in text interface for 5 days while fixing it... dont worry youll get it eventually
[12:14] <Slart> codeshah: ok.. and what does it tell you to do in there?
[12:14] <codeshah> nighthawk420, lol 5 days!? :)
[12:14] <Nighthawk420> just enter in the commands
[12:14] <Nighthawk420> yes 5 days cuz of a fuggin ATI card hehe
[12:14] <chris_> hello
[12:14] <codeshah> slart, restricted device manager ... then aparently it picks something automatically out of nvidia-glx-legacy, nvidia-glx etc.
[12:15] <scguy318> shwouchk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[12:15] <chris_> my sound sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. not it just doesn't. has anyone else experienced this?
[12:15] <shwouchk> scguy318: thanks
[12:15] <scguy318> shwouchk: the Installation without CD section
[12:15] <chris_> *now it just doesn't
[12:15] <Slart> codeshah: ah.. well you should be able to install nvidia-glx yourself.. just using apt-get
[12:15] <codeshah> oh, hmm ok lemme try
[12:15] <Slart> codeshah: try "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx"

[12:39] <scguy318> stavrosopsilos: the original question?
[12:39] <stefano> scguy318, yes, even compiled it myself to have the latest
[12:39] <stavrosopsilos> how do I use user mode linux?
[12:39] <bruenig> stavrosopsilos, this might not be the best room for that, ##linux or even #gentoo or other advanced distros
[12:39] <stavrosopsilos> thanks
[12:39] <knoppix> it is a wireless g linksys card
[12:40] <scguy318> stefano: ndiswrapper -l shows the driver as loaded properly?
[12:40] <scguy318> stefano: or is there the pesky alternate driver?
[12:40] <kitche> stavrosopsilos : http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/ tells you how to use it
[12:40] <stefano> scguy318, ndiswrapper shows the right driver, the card and that it is present and also an alternate driver (r818x)
[12:41] <scguy318> stefano: you have to blacklist the alternate driver
[12:41] <stefano> yes
[12:41] <stefano> scguy318, i can even see the networks, but if i try to connect, it says nothing until it times out
[12:41] <scguy318> stefano: anything in syslog?
[12:42] <stefano> i discussed syslog here, ppl thought it was alright
[12:43] <Pie-rate> will the ubuntu installer overwrite my /home/jschall directory if i reinstall ubuntu without formatting my home partition?
[12:44] <protocol2> astro76, I was going to tell him to use Envy
[12:44] <logan_> I have beryl-manager installed, but I want to upgrade to the beryl compiz fusion thing, should I uninstall what I have now and how do I do that
[12:44] <astro76> bruenig wins :P
[12:44] <protocol2> codeshah, have you ever heard of a program called "Envy" ?
[12:44] <astro76> !envy
[12:44] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[12:44] <rickey> boy up gradeing from breezy to dapper is a pain
[12:45] <scguy318> Pie-rate: no
[12:45] <scguy318> Pie-rate: dont believe so
[12:45] <meoblast001> hi
[12:46] <protocol2> or if you google up "envy" that will lead you to the website for the installer etc
[12:46] <knoppix>  can someone help me please
[12:46] <meoblast001> i tried the ubuntu effects but they didnt help.... my beryl doesnt make windows transparent until the first time they go out of focus
[12:47] <meoblast001> how do i fix this
[12:47] <codeshah> protocol2, no never heard of envy
[12:48] <protocol2> codeshah, pretty good program...
[12:48] <bruenig> !envy | protocol2 codeshah
[12:48] <ubotu> protocol2 codeshah: 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!
[12:48] <rickey> ive been trying to update all day to dapper from breezy , i can clear my list  but it wont update wen i put in the command
[12:48] <knoppix> does anyone know how to use airsnort
[12:49] <protocol2> codeshah, most good things are a use at your own risk of course ;)
[12:49] <bruenig> protocol2, that's ridiculous
[12:49] <knoppix> anyone in here that can helo me with airsnort
[12:49] <Evilbadwrong> How do I get permission to unzip a file into a root folder?
[12:49] <protocol2> bruenig, not really
[12:50] <codeshah> thanks
[12:50] <codeshah> lol
[12:50] <codeshah> protocol2, ill give it a try :)
[12:50] <scguy318> knoppix: error msg?
[12:50] <brian_> there are only 2 viewports when running compiz fusion.. how do i add two more?
[12:50] <logan_> I want the compiz fusion package, apt-cache only shows compiz
[12:50] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: unzip as root via sudo
[12:50] <knoppix> there is no error messege
[12:50] <bruenig> codeshah, if it fails, direct all support questions as protocol2 and no one else, as you have been warned
[12:50] <ikonia> there is no current fusion package for 7/04
[12:50] <ikonia> 7.04
[12:50] <knoppix> the programme is running but there is nothing on the search
[12:50] <Evilbadwrong> scguy318: What's the exact command, please?
[12:51] <ikonia> knoppix: where did you get the program
[12:51] <ikonia> from the ubuntu repo's ?
[12:51] <bruenig> to*
[12:51] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: gksudo file-roller for the GUI
[12:51] <ikonia> I can't see it in the repos
[12:51] <kitche> ikonia, of course not but they tell you how to compile it from source on their website
[12:51] <knoppix> it comes with knoppix 5.1 linux
[12:51] <ikonia> kitche: I know this, hence why I said there is no
[12:51] <protocol2> bruenig, I will be of some great help ;)
[12:51] <ikonia> knoppix: this is ubuntu support - not knoppix
[12:51] <twiztr> What command do I use from terminal to create a new user, from root?
[12:51] <ikonia> twiztr: sudo useradd
[12:51] <knoppix> where can i get knoppix support then
[12:51] <ikonia> twiztr: man useradd first
[12:51] <bruenig> protocol2, hopefully you have read through the source and will be able to troubleshoot, or I guess hopefully it won't fail as it does so often and we won't have to worry with it
[12:51] <kitche> ikonia, and I told you where to get compiz-fusion from their website they might have a .deb made
[12:52] <ikonia> knoppix: read the knoppix website
[12:52] <protocol2> bruenig, Its as easily as routing him back to where he started if it doesnt :)
[12:52] <knoppix> ok thaks
[12:52] <ikonia> kitche I don't want compiz
[12:52] <bruenig> protocol2, no it isn't, you do not in what state it left the machine
[12:52] <scguy318> knoppix: wow, you're using Knoppix? all this time you should have been in #knoppix
[12:52] <twiztr> And if that doesnt work, how do I make it so I can use the root account from the graphic login. I cn do it when im at one of the other ttys, but noot tty7, or whatever
[12:52] <AboSamoor> hi all, do you have any idea about stratego game on ubuntu ?
[12:52] <bruenig> that is the problem with abstraction
[12:52] <protocol2> bruenig, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg isnt that complicated to use
[12:52] <Xero> Knoppix.
[12:52] <ikonia> kitche: I was responding to someone who asked how to install compiz fusion as he couldn't see it in the repo
[12:52] <bruenig> protocol2, and what if the nvidia modules is installed
[12:52] <bruenig> module*
[12:52] <codeshah> bruenig, lol, maybe I should just forget it :)
[12:52] <bruenig> protocol2, you going to run him through deleting that?
[12:53] <Evilbadwrong> scguy318: It still says I don't have permission to extract archives even after using gksudo.
[12:53] <codeshah> i got it working now
[12:53] <codeshah> well just the vesa
[12:53] <codeshah> but it's good enough
[12:53] <meoblast001> hello.. i need to know what i did wrong that makes it so windows are not transparent until they are first put out of focus... anyone have any ideas?
[12:53] <codeshah> I'm getting full resolution and everything
[12:53] <codeshah> so... maybe it's not worth the ris :)
[12:53] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: hmmm, sudo -s, then file-roller?
[12:53] <protocol2> bruenig, the installer makes a backup and is reversable
[12:53] <rickey> why did my computer catch on fire wen i typed  sudo  kiss my ass i n ter
[12:53] <ikonia> rickey: please don't be silly
[12:54] <Evilbadwrong> scguy318: I'm sorry, I'm a total newbie...can you please spell it out for me? What exactly would I type into the terminal?
[12:54] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: sudo-s, then file-roller :)
[12:54] <scguy318> *sudo -s
[12:54] <Evilbadwrong> file-roller?
[12:54] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: its the GUI for archive extraction, isn't it?
[12:54] <stdin> !gksu
[12:54] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[12:54] <protocol2> bruenig, but as he stated.... its truly up to him
[12:54] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: what's the command that you are using to extract?
[12:55] <WhiteGulls> I have Mumbles 0.4 installed, and I'm having an issue with it not taking the proper focus -- it keeps appearing under Firefox.
[12:55] <Evilbadwrong> scguy318: That's what I'm asking you! lol
[12:55] <Netham45> does ubuntu server have apache/php/mysql(lamp) installed on default?
[12:55] <WhiteGulls> Is there any way I can tell Gnome to make the windows pop up?
[12:55] <bruenig> protocol2, yeah I know but people do things you tell them to do in here without really knowing what they are doing (if they knew they wouldn't be in here right?) so it is important to let them know
[12:55] <rickey> ok ill ask this question only one more time , will someone help me grt  my breezy to dapper up grade started?
[12:55] <safruhani> bruenig: i agree with you
[12:55] <protocol2> codeshah, and of course there is always the right documentation for installing nvidia drivers in the wiki's
[12:56] <kitche> Netham45, ubuntu server has an option to install it by default
[12:56] <ninjabooty> Netham54: ubuntu server has an option from the init screen to install a LAMP ... totally automated
[12:56] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: you asked how to extract with root permission, just do gksudo file-roller and then open the archive from it
[12:56] <ikonia> rickey: not the best idea, better to do a clean install
[12:56] <rickey> the rigth way
[12:56] <ninjabooty> makes it almost too easy :D
[12:56] <rickey> i dont have dsl
[12:56] <ikonia> rickey: how is that relevent ?
[12:56] <Evilbadwrong> scguy318: We're not speaking the same language, here.....
[12:56] <johnficc1> is where a way to install ubuntu w/o a cdrom drive?
[12:57] <rickey> 54 hours on dail up
[12:57] <protocol2> bruenig, understood
[12:57] <kitche> !install | johnficc1
[12:57] <ubotu> johnficc1: 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
[12:57] <ikonia> johnficc1: you can net boot, but its a reasonable time to setup
[12:57] <ikonia> rickey: but upgrading is still the same ammount of net traffic
[12:57] <Netham45> 4j
[12:57] <scguy318> johnficc: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[12:57] <rickey> i have a friend with dsl ,that did it in 7 our,s
[12:57] <logan_> How do I get compiz fusion, I use 7.04, and I just installed
[12:57] <johnficc1> ikonia: do you know a good how to for that
[12:57] <protocol2> bruenig, my first choice should have been to route him to the wiki's for fiesty :) and gave him envy as a secondary option
[12:57] <ikonia> rickey: borrow his dsl then
[12:58] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: okay, tell me what you are doing when you encounter the root permission issue?
[12:58] <ikonia> johnficc1: kitche has just sent you a good url
[12:58] <protocol2> anyways
[12:58] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: I would simply do Alt-F2, gksudo file-roller, enter pass, open archive, extract to w/e
[12:58] <kmak> lately my DVD and WMV playback has green lines all around the screen (in VLC and totem; works in gxine). Anyone know what is causing this???
[12:58] <johnficc1> ok
[12:58] <Evilbadwrong> I have a file on my desktop called "map_pack.zip". I want to extract this file to a root folder (where the game is installed). What exactly do I type into the terminal so that it will extract?
[12:58] <nn> hi I seem to have a cd drive that shows up as scd how do i enable DMA or something equivelent to it to the scsi based ide device??
[12:59] <ninjabooty> does gzip do pkzip files?
[12:59] <ikonia> nn: its probably already enableed
[12:59] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: sudo unzip zipfile.zip -d/whereveritis?
[12:59] <ikonia> ninjabooty: don't think so
[12:59] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: or just launcher gksudo file-roller to get GUI with root permission
[12:59] <hellop> how do I remove the hda1 icon from desktop?
[01:00] <ikonia> hellop: it appears when you mount the disks
[01:00] <dom_> i just installed wubi, and my sound doesnt work
[01:00] <ikonia> dom_: we don't support wubi here
[01:00] <hellop> ikonia, I know
[01:00] <hellop> ikonia, it must be removed at all cost
[01:00] <kitche> HellDragon, if you don't want any disk icons on your desktop it's in gconf-editor
[01:00] <Tixer> I want to host a SOCKS proxy on my FF Ubuntu Server. What programs can I do this with?
[01:01] <kitche> opps HellDragon that was for hellop
[01:01] <HellDragon> heh
[01:01] <hellop> maybe it can't be removed because it's become too much a part of the OS
[01:01] <nn> ikonia: then why is my dvd reading to slow
[01:01] <cafuego> Tixer: apt-cache search socks -> see what it lists
[01:01] <scguy318> Tixer: antinat, though i dont think its in the repo
[01:01] <kitche> hellop: it's in gconf-editor to remove all disk icons fromt he desktop
[01:01] <dom_> is there any solution to why my sound is gone though?
[01:01] <hellop> kitche, tks
[01:01] <nn> ikonia: and it also says it cant enable it with hdparm
[01:01] <cafuego> !info dante-server
[01:01] <ubotu> dante-server: SOCKS (v4 and v5) proxy daemon (danted). In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.18-2.1 (feisty), package size 121 kB, installed size 336 kB
[01:01] <Evilbadwrong> scguy318: Thank you, that worked. Sorry for the misunderstandings.
[01:02] <scguy318> Evilbadwrong: np, we're here to learn :)
[01:02] <hellop> I was being sarcastic.. you know can't remove IE from windows and all..
[01:02] <kmak> can anyone help with video playback problems?? dvd's and some wmv files have green lines around edge of screen
[01:02] <valemon> Is there a tray icon for gnome xchat?
[01:02] <Netham45> I didn't install lamp on install for my server, and APT doesn't know it, how do I install it?
[01:02] <ikonia> valemon: its a plugin as I recall
[01:02] <Netham45> I could of sworn APT was used for it
[01:02] <valemon> thanks
[01:02] <kitche> !lamp | Netham45
[01:02] <ubotu> Netham45: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[01:02] <scguy318> valemon: no idea but I think theres an app in repo to allow all apps to have a tray icon
[01:03] <kitche> Netham45, install apache mysql php
[01:03] <scguy318> valemon: alltray is the name
[01:03] <Moniker42> what does the --purge option do when used on the apt-get command?
[01:03] <ikonia> Moniker42: man apt-get
[01:03] <scguy318> Moniker42: removes the package and its configuration files
[01:03] <Moniker42> scguy318, thanks
[01:03] <klaus_> hm
[01:05] <valemon> The alltray application really useful and easy to use. Thank you
[01:05] <ScorpKing> in gnome is there a .directory file on the desktop?
[01:06] <kitche> ScorpKing, only if you make one
[01:06] <scguy318> ScorpKing: there is no ".directory" file on my Desktop :P
[01:06] <Tixer> !info antinat
[01:06] <ubotu> Package antinat does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[01:06] <scguy318> Tixer: its not in the repo
[01:06] <Netham45> http://netham45.dyndns.org/ <= can someone see if they can connect?
[01:06] <Tixer> Any other SOCKS alternatives? Dante-server isn't working.
[01:06] <ScorpKing> kitche:  what is the BgImage= option is for?
[01:06] <scguy318> Tixer: cafuego suggested dante-server
[01:06] <Netham45> nothing on it yet, just want to make sure it is publically visible.
[01:07] <shwouchk> If I would dd an ubuntu image to one HDD partition and set it to boot, would it boot up like a CDROM?
[01:07] <kitche> Netham45, yes
[01:07] <scguy318> Tixer: you can build antinat from source
[01:07] <kitche> ScorpKing, for what?
[01:07] <Netham45> 'k
[01:07] <scguy318> Tixer: i havent tried checkinstalling it and not sure how that would work out
[01:07] <Tixer> scguy318: I'm a noob. Not building from sauce.
[01:07] <ScorpKing> kitche: yes
[01:07] <Keule|On> hi there
[01:07] <scguy318> Tixer: it's usually a matter of sudo apt-get install build-essential, ./configure && make && sudo make install, but
[01:07] <scguy318> Tixer: lemme look for alternatives
[01:07] <kitche> ScorpKing, umm what are ypu talking about you asked me what BgImage= then just said yes without anwsering my question
[01:08] <Keule|On> i have a problem with compiz.... black windows....
[01:08] <Keule|On> does anyone have tis porb tooo=?
[01:08] <ScorpKing> kitche: soz. i'm getting there. one sec. lol
[01:08] <kitche> ScorpKing, sicne BgImage= can be for anything
[01:08] <scguy318> Keule: you have restricted driver installed?
[01:09] <bzaks> someone please help!!! my wireless keeps dieing, and coming alive and dieing and coming alive
[01:09] <bzaks> This is so annoying, there's nothing out of the ordinary in the logs
[01:09] <scguy318> bzaks: weak signal?
[01:09] <ScorpKing> kitche: i wan't to have a different background for each folder and i thought maybe BgImage= will work for that but it doesn't or i'm using it wrong.
[01:09] <scguy318> Tixer: what exactly isn't working with dante-server?
[01:09] <Keule|On> compiz tells me i installed a standard driver
[01:09] <bzaks> no, it's great signal, I'm only 40 ft (max) from the ap
[01:09] <kmak> Anyone seeing green bars on edge of screen when playing DVDs in VLC???
[01:09] <Keule|On> but i installed nvidia
[01:09] <scguy318> kmak: no
[01:10] <Netham45> I want to be able to give certain users sftp access to /var/www/<folder> only. I don't want them able to access anything outside their folder at all.
[01:10] <Netham45> any ideas?
[01:10] <ScorpKing> kitche: each folder will have it's own .directory file of course. :)
[01:10] <kitche> ScorpKing, I have no idea about that
[01:10] <kmak> fuck fuck fuck cunt cunt cunt
[01:10] <Keule|On> scguy318: i have no idea
[01:10] <Netham45> !language | kmak
[01:10] <ubotu> kmak: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:10] <ScorpKing> kitche: ok. thanks anyway.
[01:10] <ikonia> kmak: that language is not acceptable
[01:10] <bzaks> is there a way to double check signal strength when you're on manual configuration and not roaming mode?
[01:10] <kitche> ScorpKing, I don't use gui really just for xchat and web browsing really
[01:11] <ScorpKing> Netham45: one way is to chroot the users.
[01:11] <c_j> !host
[01:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about host - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:11] <c_j> !hostname
[01:11] <ubotu> Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab
[01:11] <bzaks> ktiche: if you want to be a real man and not use the gui, you should use linx (sp?)
[01:11] <scguy318> *Lynx
[01:11] <bzaks> thanks scguy
[01:11] <ninjabooty> !women
[01:11] <ubotu> The women and men of the Ubuntu women project hang out in #ubuntu-women. Encouraging women to use linux? Read http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Encourage-Women-Linux-HOWTO/ for some suggestions compiled by women who use Linux on how to do so effectively.
[01:11] <Netham45> ScorpKing, how would I do that?
[01:11] <codename> i need some help
[01:12] <cafuego> Netham45: There is a patch to chroot ssh if a user's homedir contains a /./ string.
[01:12] <codename> Is there any program out there where I can underclock my Nvidia card
[01:12] <bzaks> underclock?
[01:12] <ScorpKing> Netham45: what ftp server do you use?
[01:12] <Netham45> cafuego?
[01:12] <ekie95> ok need help only can access index page by typing 192 address but static ip need help tried everything
[01:12] <BlehBleh> msg nickserv identify ReactioN
[01:12] <codename> or like
[01:12] <BlehBleh> orz
[01:12] <Netham45> I have OpenSSH
[01:12] <BlehBleh> lol
[01:12] <cafuego> h4x!!!
[01:12] <BlehBleh> hehe
[01:12] <cafuego> BlehBleh: Change yer password dude
[01:12] <codename> tweak my clockiing sttetings
[01:12] <BlehBleh> yarly. lol
[01:13] <cafuego> Netham45: http://chrootssh.sourceforge.net/download/ -> you will need to patch your openssh.
[01:13] <Netham45> Ok
[01:13] <bzaks> Is there a way to test signal strength without being in roaming mode?
[01:13] <codename> Is there any program out there where I can underclock my Nvidia card
[01:13] <IrishDave> hey, can anyone direct me to the best place to get a driver for windows to read the linux file systems? i have found a few but im wondering if there is a recommended one
[01:13] <scguy318> bzaks: doesnt network-manager give the bars?
[01:13] <bzaks> not in manual configuration
[01:13] <cafuego> Netham45: ... it's not hard to do. A few simple steps.
[01:13] <bzaks> and my card doesn't work in roaming mode
[01:13] <slavik> amd64 feisty, wine44, no cyrilic input :( (displaying cyrilic is fine)
[01:14] <kitche> IrishDave, there is really only one for ext2 and it's http://fs-driver.org/ that should be trusted
[01:14] <bzaks> of course, I'm pretty adamant about not compiling the ra2500 drivers, I'm trying to prove that ubuntu will work out of the box just fine
[01:14] <scguy318> IrishDave: http://www.fs-driver.org/
[01:14] <scguy318> ktche beat me to it
[01:14] <tdyer> hey, i tried "installing" the nvidia drivers by selecting them in the restricted drivers module, and now i just get a black screen...
[01:14] <IrishDave> thanks kitche and scguy318
[01:14] <scguy318> tdyer: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:14] <slavik> tdyer: what card?
[01:14] <cafuego> Netham45: You will want the osshChroot-4.3p1.diff file.
[01:14] <tdyer> gforce 6200le
[01:14] <kitche> IrishDave, if your wondering ext2=ext3 just that ext3 can journal
[01:14] <slavik> I found that the feisty restricted manager has old nvidia driver (had to get it from nvidia's site)
[01:15] <Netham45> what 'bout the 4.5 tarball?
[01:15] <cafuego> Netham45: Avoid.
[01:15] <cafuego> Netham45: I'll talk you through it.
[01:15] <tdyer> i tried using envy, it gave me the same result
[01:15] <Netham45> Ok...
[01:15] <IrishDave> time to go to windows :'( i cant wait until I no longer need to and dont need to use windows, thanks kitche
[01:15] <cafuego> Netham45: Open a shell, go to /usr/src
[01:15] <Netham45> lemme re wget the right file
[01:15] <cafuego> ok
[01:15] <oxeimon> can anyone hear me
[01:15] <ScorpKing> no not really
[01:16] <booster_> me either
[01:16] <bzaks> Oxeimon: what? What was that?
[01:16] <ekie95> i type in my 192.168.xx.xx address i get my page but how do i get it so everyone can see it? like a static ip address
[01:16] <jrib> Aminux: nvidia 7600 GT
[01:16] <oxeimon> lol thanks
[01:16] <oxeimon> :-D
[01:16] <ScorpKing> lol
[01:16] <oxeimon> just want to say, you guys are all awesome
[01:16] <bzaks> ekie95: what exactly do you mean?
[01:16] <tdyer> ekie95 have you opened your firewall? on your nat router?
[01:16] <ScorpKing> we know...
[01:16] <ekie95> yes i have
[01:16] <tdyer> have you pointed it to your server with port 80?
[01:16] <bzaks> Put your computer on the DMZ, but make sure all your financial records are one there too...
[01:16] <bzaks> :-P
[01:16] <slavik> ekie95: are you allowed to have a server on your connection?
[01:17] <hellop> my friend Devin is a noob
[01:17] <ekie95> yes
[01:17] <slavik> bzaks: even though commical, please don't give such advice :)
[01:17] <tdyer> lastly, do you have a static ip?
[01:17] <cafuego> !noob
[01:17] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[01:17] <ekie95> no dhcp
[01:17] <slavik> ekie95: your isp is supposed to provide you with a static ip address
[01:17] <ninjabooty> ok, i've never used ubutunu except for one time I did the server lamp thing ... and anyother time back in the warty days
[01:17] <ikonia> quit bed time
[01:17] <bzaks> sorry slavik, I've been reading "The Art of Intrusion" by Mitnick, and it's reminding me of my weak sauce script kiddie day
[01:17] <bzaks> days***
[01:17] <jvai> lol uall wrong
[01:17] <tdyer> go get a dyndns like account, and set it to your dynamic ip
[01:18] <Netham45> ok
[01:18] <Netham45> cafuego, I got it downloaded
[01:18] <slavik> bzaks: that advice is perfectly good for offtopic channel though ;)
[01:18] <tdyer> you should then be able to type xyz.dyndns.org and get your page
[01:18] <ninjabooty> I've got a friend with wireless internet and I'm pretty sure that nothing in 'nix is going to support it
[01:18] <Netham45> the osshchroot-4.3p1.diff
[01:18] <Netham45> now what?
[01:18] <cafuego> Netham45: cd to /usr/src in a terminal, and download the ubuntu ssh source: 'apt-get source openssh-server'
[01:18] <slavik> ninjabooty: what card is it?
[01:18] <Netham45> cd /usr/src
[01:18] <ekie95> how
[01:18] <ninjabooty> Belking USB wireless adapter
[01:18] <Netham45> oops
[01:18] <cafuego> heh
[01:18] <cafuego> *other* terminal ;-)
[01:18] <slavik> ninjabooty: do lsusb and pastebin the output
[01:19] <ninjabooty> should I just give her an orinoko and call it good?
[01:19] <ekie95> can't i make a dhcp in to a static ip
[01:19] <Netham45> nothing bad will happen if I do this locally at the server as opposed to over an SSH terminal, right?
[01:19] <slavik> ninjabooty: yes ^^
[01:19] <ninjabooty> I'm not there atm and if I was I'd have nothing to pastebin with
[01:19] <slavik> k
[01:19] <bzaks> ekie95: yes you can, but you're going to need your ISPs permission if you want it visible on the WAN
[01:19] <tdyer> ekie95: umm go to dyndns.org and sign up, its free. you can pick your hostname, you can probably get a program that will automatically change your ip whenever it changes
[01:19] <cafuego> Netham45: No, it'll be fine, I did this same thing on my remote production box 3 days ago.
[01:19] <Netham45> Ok
[01:20] <Netham45> hot the source downloaded
[01:20] <Netham45> got*
[01:20] <cafuego> Hold on, I'll do the same here.
[01:20] <ekie95> i am on cable
[01:20] <tdyer> yeah, im in canada where the isp's arent complete arse's...
[01:20] <bzaks> ekie95: tdyer is also on target with that
[01:20] <Netham45> 'k
[01:20] <r3tard> hm
[01:20] <r3tard> hilol
[01:20] <sukki> hi
[01:20] <cafuego> Next step: Install compiler and tools: 'sudo apt-get install build-essential devscripts'
[01:20] <r3tard> Whats up? :)
[01:20] <Netham45> cafuego, this is a brand new install, all I have installed is lamp and openssh-server
[01:20] <bzaks> does anyone know if ubuntero.com is using an ubuntu server?
[01:20] <cafuego> Netham45: *nod*
[01:20] <bzaks> that would be a bit of delightful irony
[01:20] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[01:20] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:21] <bzaks> sorry PriceChild, I'll leave :)
[01:21] <ninjabooty> I'm not sure what to do, how do you give someone 'nix when they've never even seen cmd.exe in action?
[01:21] <sukki> gtk+ >= 2.6 not found.
[01:21] <sukki>         Note: You might have the lib but not the headers
[01:21] <sukki>  <-- what apt-get package do i need to install
[01:21] <Netham45> Ok, got those packages installed
[01:21] <cafuego> Netham45: .. and also install 'fakeroot' actually
[01:21] <Netham45> ok, fakeroot installed
[01:21] <wanger> hi guys!
[01:21] <cafuego> Now cd into 'openssh-4.3p2'
[01:21] <sukki> ive tried looking for it but cant find the correct package
[01:21] <Pelo> ninjabooty, you tell them that they can get a butload of free apps from one easy source  synaptic
[01:22] <Netham45> 'k
[01:22] <ninjabooty> well, not if their internet doesn't work
[01:22] <kitche> sukki, libgtk2.0-dev
[01:22] <ninjabooty> LOL
[01:22] <cafuego> Next step: apply th chroot patch: 'patch -p1 --dry-run < /path/to/the/patch.diff
[01:22] <KrnlKlink> can you install ubuntu to a iscsi target?
[01:22] <SpudDogg> Does anyone know how to enable direct rendering?
[01:22] <Pelo> ninjabooty,  you can supply them with the dvd,  covers most of them
[01:22] <sukki> ty
[01:22] <cafuego> Netham45: That will do a dry run, ie: tell you if the patch would apply OK, but not actually apply it.
[01:22] <Netham45> ok, it is thinking now.
[01:22] <ninjabooty> is it going to autodetect and everything?
[01:23] <cafuego> Netham45: If it reports no errors, run 'patch -p1 < /path/to/the/patch.diff' to actually apply the patch
[01:23] <jrib> SpudDogg: what video card?
[01:23] <Pelo> ninjabooty, I basicaly had the same problem with my aunt,  but the up shot was that she needed an os in french so it was an easier sales
[01:23] <Netham45> Ok
[01:23] <Pelo> ninjabooty,  audodetect ?
[01:23] <Netham45> no errors so far
[01:23] <cafuego> ok
[01:23] <tdyer> how can i disable the previosuly installed nvidia driver, i am logged in as root, in recovery mode
[01:23] <cafuego> patch should be finished, it only needs to patch 3 files or so.
[01:23] <slavik> Pelo: any idea if it's possible to tie a  locale to a user? (russian for one, english for another?)
[01:23] <Netham45> no...
[01:24] <Netham45> still thinking
[01:24] <jrib> !xconfig > tdyer (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:24] <ker> #ubuntu-es
[01:24] <ninjabooty> well, these days people are trying to run Windows Vista on Deschutes Pentium IIs
[01:24] <cafuego> Netham45: That's not right, you used < and not > right?
[01:24] <slavik> lol
[01:24] <Netham45> oops
[01:24] <slavik> unixware: sco owns you :P
[01:24] <ninjabooty> it just doesn't cut it ... windows xp doesn't cut it
[01:24] <Netham45> I completely overlooked the '<'
[01:24] <Netham45> there
[01:24] <Netham45> no errors
[01:24] <Pelo> ninjabooty, if I get your question,  after you have installed, if you put the install cd or dvd back in the cdrom , the comp will detect it and ask you to add it to synaptic,  same goes for "extra" cd or dvd you might have made with  aptoncd
[01:24] <cafuego> Netham45: Beats my Klamath ones
[01:24] <cafuego> Netham45: cool
[01:24] <unixware> slavik, :P
[01:24] <Netham45> ok
[01:24] <Netham45> patche
[01:25] <Netham45> patched*
[01:25] <slavik> ninjabooty: I read a joke of someone installing gentoo on a 286 :)
[01:25] <fenixx> \join #ubuntu-es
[01:25] <Netham45> now what?
[01:25] <cafuego> Netham45: Next step, increment the package version, so it won't overwrite it the second we install. 'dch -i'
[01:25] <cafuego> Netham45: That will open a text editor
[01:25] <Pelo> slavik, for the interface?  I think you can yes,  you do the language support thingy from that user's account
[01:25] <fenixx> #join \ubuntu-es
[01:25] <Netham45> ok
[01:25] <slavik> Pelo: you mean the package or the session thing?
[01:25] <cafuego> Netham45: The first line contains "1:4.3p2-8ubuntu2"
[01:25] <cafuego> Change that to "1:4.3p2-8ubuntu1+chroot"
[01:26] <cafuego> So we know it's the normal one, with chroot patch applied.
[01:26] <fenixx> como me cambio de canal
[01:26] <slavik> and I can't get russian input to work in wine apps, any ideas?
[01:26] <jrib> fenixx: /join #ubuntu-es
[01:26] <Netham45> you mean ubuntu2+chroot, right?
[01:26] <Pelo> slavik, I mean you log in as the user you want to localise,  and go to  menu > system > prefs > language support , select the correct language for that user
[01:27] <Pelo> slavik, I donT' knwo about language in wine,  you'd have to ask in #winehq
[01:27] <walkover> hey what is the ubuntu after feisty called and when will it be officially relased?
[01:28] <Pelo> walkover, Gutsy Gibbon 7.10 , ie  october 2007
[01:28] <walkover> thanks
[01:28] <walkover> gutsy gibbon ;D
[01:30] <Pelo> weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
[01:32] <Jacob> and freenode floods itself
[01:32] <[1] Netham45> aah!
[01:32] <Jacob> wow.
[01:32] <Palintheus> mmm netsplit
[01:32] <PriceChild> !netsplit
[01:32] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[01:32] <Banditu> :z
[01:32] <jvai> net split?
[01:32] <cafuego> Netham45: The 2 is what dch did, the original was 1.
[01:32] <cafuego> And add a nice description after the asterisk.
[01:32] <cafuego> Then save the file
[01:32] <cafuego> Sorry, I am lagging like mad, may drop out...
[01:32] <Pelo> sigh ....

[01:32] <Bicx> I want to get rid of my Windows install disk so that it will cause the least amount of harm to the world as possible. How should I do this?
[01:33] <ninjabooty> incinerator
[01:33] <lashmoove> put it in the sun..
[01:33] <lashmoove> it should get clear
[01:33] <ninjabooty> send it to me, I'll give to a hobo
[01:33] <lashmoove> nice science project
[01:33] <Pelo> Bicx, use it as a coaster
[01:33] <neztit1> can some one help me by vdr application????
[01:33] <charly17201> anyone have time to chat with a newbie to linux? i'm an old dos person but having problems with installing software and navigating around.
[01:33] <scguy318> charly17201: what's the question?
[01:34] <andresj> Bick, I'd recommend you use gparted to remove the windows partition, and then create a new linux partition there or grow your existing one
[01:34] <lashmoove> how would I set firefox to use ktorrent in gnome?
[01:34] <ninjabooty> Bicx: what's the CD-key?
[01:34] <charly17201> scguy: so many, but the first one is changing directories
[01:34] <bzaks> I can't wait til October
[01:34] <foutrelis> Hello. How can i run a program (example: /home/username/folder/program) as user "username" when the system boots in Ubuntu server?
[01:34] <[1] Netham45> thank you freenode for adding a generous 10mb to my logs.
[01:34] <coyote_> where can I get fedora linux help?
[01:34] <bzaks> is the new Gutsy Gibbon beta stable?
[01:34] <scguy318> charly17201: To change directory in the terminal, use cd?
[01:34] <kev_b> charly17201: same as DOS, 'cd'
[01:34] <bzaks> I wanna format
[01:34] <scguy318> coyote_: #fedora
[01:34] <ninjabooty> makefs :D
[01:35] <charly17201> i've tried that, but either i'm not using the right syntax or i'm not understanding the directory structures
[01:35] <Q_Continuum> charly17201, https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/basic-commands/C/ will help
[01:35] <nickrud> bzaks: so so, ask for more info on #ubuntu+1
[01:35] <Bicx> ninjabooty: I am not actually getting rid of a Windows disc. I'm just experimenting with ways to instantly become friends with Linux users ;)
[01:35] <scguy318> charly17201: oh, the path syntax
 isn't it restricted?
[01:35] <scguy318> charly17201: on *nix, paths are delimited by /
[01:35] <Aishiko> hi all, got a techie type question, Is there a way to force the download and reinstallation of a package I think is corrupted?  Terminal commands are ok espcially if it's witht eh pat-get command
[01:35] <charly17201> scguy - yes
[01:35] <Pelo> coyote_, check the fedora site for an irc channel
[01:35] <ninjabooty> damnit, I need XP
[01:35] <ninjabooty> :P
[01:35] <scguy318> charly17201: the root is /, cd /home/charly17201 (if that exists)
[01:35] <scguy318> charly17201: as an example
[01:35] <unixware> ese coyote_ #linux.mx
[01:35] <coyote_> thx
[01:35] <Pelo> ninjabooty, no you don'T , take a deep breath, it will pass
[01:36] <nickrud> Aishiko:   aptitude reinstall
[01:36] <ninjabooty> nah, I don't need XP, a friend of mine does
[01:36] <Netham45> lol
[01:36] <kev_b> charly17201: 'pwd' command will tell you your current directory
[01:36] <scguy318> coyote_: restricted? dont think so
[01:36] <charly17201> ummm, is it that i'm using 'terminal' that is wrong?
[01:36] <bzaks> ninja
[01:36] <Pelo> ninjabooty, freinds don't let freinds us MS
[01:36] <bzaks> gotta public FTP?
[01:36] <bzaks> I understand the need for XP
[01:36] <andresj> charly17207, in linux you use '/' instead of '\'
[01:36] <scguy318> charly17201: there is no issue with Terminal, what are you doing thats causing an issue?
[01:36] <bzaks> my GF needed it, laptops suck sometimes... especially broadcom ones with sketchy connections
[01:36] <hellop> xp pwnz
[01:37] <kev_b> charly17201: can you give an example of what you've tried and maybe we can correct it
[01:37] <ninjabooty> mmm ... cookie
[01:37] <Aishiko> thank you is that at the end of the command string "sudo apt-get install 'program/package' aptitude reinstall"?
[01:37] <ninjabooty> where's all the vistas at?
[01:37] <ninjabooty> booyah1
[01:37] <charly17201> scguy- just trying to get to the right directory to run an install..... ket me try this now....
[01:37] <Netham45> Im on Vista.
[01:37] <jrib> Aishiko: no, 'sudo aptitude reinstall PACKAGE' is the syntax
[01:37] <LadyNikon> im sorry
[01:37] <Pelo> ninjabooty, on store shelves,  no one buys them
[01:37] <ninjabooty> is fiesty good for running in VPC?
[01:37] <nickrud> Aishiko: no, it's a replacement for apt-get ; I'm ingrained ;)   apt-get install --reinstall   is another way
[01:37] <Aishiko> ahhh thank you :), I'm learning!  I do most of my packages via apt-get now
[01:37] <scguy318> ninjabooty: depends on the specs of the host, VMware seems to be a better product imho
[01:38] <ninjabooty> I tried doing freebsd in vpc and it went ape ...
[01:38] <Pelo> ninjabooty,  vpc ? virtual pc ?  ubu has vmware in the repos
[01:38] <scguy318> charly17201: ls is directory listing
[01:38] <slavik> brain teaser: if slash denotes that the previous "word" is a directory, then what is the name of the root directory? (it's not "/")
[01:38] <scguy318> Pelo: prob VMware Player, not rly useful for creating VMs
[01:38] <scguy318> Pelo: mebbe VMware Server
[01:38] <ninjabooty> I was happy with vpc up until that point
[01:38] <Aishiko> OK so apt-get reinstall = aptitude reinstall?
[01:38] <Q_Continuum> charly17201, bookmark this one for later viewing: http://www.google.com/search?q=Linux+command+line+intro
[01:38] <kev_b> slavik: null?
[01:38] <Pelo> scguy318,  feisty has vmware server in the repos
[01:38] <jrib> !who | Aishiko
[01:38] <nickrud> Aishiko: apt-get install --reinstall = aptitude reinstall
[01:38] <ubotu> Aishiko: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[01:38] <ninjabooty> what I really want is for all my OS to be on pen drives
[01:38] <slavik> Aishiko: no, even though they accomplish the same thing :)
[01:38] <scguy318> Pelo: rly? cool
[01:39] <slavik> kev_b: null ... what?
[01:39] <bzaks> scguy: you need a key for it though
[01:39] <lashmoove> how can I set gnome to use ktorrent instead of bittorrent?
[01:39] <bzaks> you can't just install it
[01:39] <kev_b> slavik: root directory
[01:39] <slavik> kev_b: nvm, I was looking for 'null string' but null will do fine
[01:39] <jrib> !defaultapp > lashmoove (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:39] <LinAsH> hey, with radeon driver and dynamicclocks option, how to be sure that frequency scaling is effective? is there other settings to enable it?
[01:39] <Aishiko> slavick, hh OK thank you, I'm going to ry it now
[01:40] <Netham45> cafuego__?
[01:40] <Pelo> lashmoove, sure you can,  but yuou can also use deluge torrent or utorrent on wine or a lot of others
[01:40] <charly17201> scguy: here's what i just did an results.... did a 'dir' command and 'pwd' tried to change directory to the desktop. pwd returned /home/me and dir returned desktop as a directory. typed in cd /home/me/desktop and it returned "no such file or directory"
[01:40] <kev_b> slavik: I hear it prefers to be called Steve tho
[01:40] <slavik> LinAsH: dynamic clocks or dynamic ticks?
[01:40] <ScorpKing> Pelo: with vmware-player you can still easily create vm's. no need for the workstation.
[01:40] <bzaks> charly: are you using bash?
[01:40] <cafuego__> Netham45: ... still on phone. gimme a minute...
[01:40] <Netham45> Ok
[01:40] <kev_b> charly17201: instead of 'dir' try 'ls'
[01:40] <Netham45> can you /msg me when you are ready?
[01:40] <slavik> kev_b: hmm, I though it was Bob
[01:40] <lashmoove> pelo: ktorrent works for me.. I just want it to be default.
[01:40] <charly17201> um.... bash?
[01:40] <ninjabooty> microsoft is just like mayonaise ... once you realize how discusting it is.
[01:40] <scguy318> bzaks: most likely yes
[01:40] <bzaks> (good point kev_b)
[01:41] <jrib> charly17201: "Desktop", not "desktop".  linux is case-sensitive
[01:41] <lashmoove> pelo:nvmd
[01:41] <scguy318> charly17201: /bin/bash is the default shell in Terminal
[01:41] <jrib> !cli > charly17201 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:41] <clever> f'ing splits
[01:41] <bzaks> Does anyone know how to integrate tomcat and apache so I can do php AND Jsp?

[01:45] <charly17201> scguy: i'm looking at a/the wine application. i have one work program (excel)  i need to be able to work all the graphics
[01:45] <Savage-{> xazo, you need the dev package of evolution
[01:45] <Bicx> Has anyone on here tested the new ATI drivers, or are they even out yet?
[01:45] <kev_b> chris_: what version of ubuntu, which browser and which flash version?
[01:45] <xazo> where do i get dev packages of evolution?
[01:45] <Savage-{> do a search in snaptic
[01:45] <CountX> hi room!!
[01:45] <bzaks> Chris_ do you have a 64bit or 32bit version?
[01:46] <SpudDogg> Aishiko: well, im working on Oblivion right now...I'll let you know how it goes, but what's the problem with Ashen Emp?  Have you tried wine-doors for your directx install?
[01:46] <chris_> 7.04 32bit, adobe 9 flash player
[01:46] <Savage-{> synaptic
[01:46] <chris_> firefox 2.0.0.6
[01:46] <bzaks> That should be fine then Chris_
[01:46] <Nighthawk420> hey i messed sumthin up lol but now i need to set up my wired connection in the text interface... something like "ifconfig eth0" and then there  is another one to do after that... wehat do i need to do next???
[01:46] <jrib> xazo: evolution-exchange is in the repositories, there's no need to compile it
[01:46] <xazo> is snaptic a web site?
[01:46] <chris_> yeh well it was, until just now
[01:46] <CountX> im looking for some help installing linux on a couple machines
[01:46] <Ahadiel> xazo, evolution-dev
[01:46] <tyoc> some one know of a little distro, that can boot HD partitions directly????
[01:46] <chris_> for some reason i cant get sound on it anymor
[01:46] <bzaks> This might sound lame Chris_ but have you rebooted?
[01:46] <Savage-{> do a search for evolution and you will find a evolution dev package along witht he standard package
[01:46] <chris_> hmm
[01:46] <chris_> no
[01:46] <Ahadiel> xazo, sudo apt-get install evolution-dev
[01:46] <chris_> mayb firefox needs a restart actually
[01:46] <xazo> ok. will try that
[01:46] <chris_> i did just change the sound driver selection
[01:47] <ScorpKing> charly17201: it's /home/me/Desktop
[01:47] <Nighthawk420> hello?
[01:47] <charly17201> i do love this ubuntu tho.  i haven't turned my windows computer on in over a week
[01:47] <jrib> xazo: just get evolution-exchange and save the compiling step...
[01:47] <Savage-{> CountX, i'm thinking something is needing the source files though for exchange
[01:47] <ScorpKing> lol. reading up..
[01:47] <Aishiko> SpudDogg Wine-Doors?  I've not heard of it.  basicly I get to the point where  it asks me to pick a server (only 2 servers) and no matter which one I click it gives me a login error and then I can't click on a different server even though it sayes to do just that
[01:47] <masse> hi
[01:47] <charly17201> ScorpKing: yes i got it. thanks tho.
[01:47] <CountX> Savage-{: no, actually i havent started :P, i installed fedora 7 on my laptop and didnt like it
[01:48] <ScorpKing> charly17201: ya i was reading on top of the post. lol
[01:48] <CountX> Savage-{: was wondering if ubuntu would be easier
[01:48] <xazo> so, after I do the apt-get install evolution-dev. do i then run the ./configure and make and make install?
[01:48] <Savage-{> oh
[01:48] <Savage-{> yeah it is
[01:48] <Savage-{> Fedora is just a beta testing distro if you ask me
[01:48] <Nighthawk420> growlll
[01:48] <bzaks> Ninjabooty: you still really need an XP ISO?
[01:48] <Nighthawk420> someone told me it this morning on here why dont any of yall know it?
[01:48] <jrib> xazo: no, you don't need evolution-dev.  All you do is 'sudo apt-get install evolution-exchange' and you are done
[01:48] <charly17201> ScorpKing- yes, i've got like a dozen more links that ppl have sent me to look at too.
[01:48] <Ahadiel> xazo, apt-get installs it for you O_O
[01:48] <CountX> Savage-{: well, i myself would like to learn about linux, but i dont need a hasle, but my  father isnt as technically inclined, and i want to hook him up with linux
[01:48] <squeakyp> hey everyone
[01:48] <Savage-{> they use they community to test and them implement them into RHEL
[01:48] <ninjabooty> I don't, but she sure does
[01:48] <Nighthawk420> someone told me it this morning on here why dont any of yall know it?
[01:49] <squeakyp> i can't get my audio to work, where do i get alsaconf?
[01:49] <ScorpKing> charly17201: here is another great link. http://freeos.com/articles/3102/
[01:49] <Nighthawk420> hey i messed sumthin up lol but now i need to set up my wired connection in the text interface... something like "ifconfig eth0" and then there  is another one to do after that... wehat do i need to do next???
[01:49] <Savage-{> CountX, definetly ubuntu
[01:49] <scguy318> ifconfig up eth0?
[01:49] <xazo> kewl. i just and am running the apt-get install evolution-dev. that will install evolution-exchange for me?
[01:49] <scguy318> *eth0 up
[01:49] <bzaks> NightHawk
[01:49] <cafuego__> Netham45: Okay then. Did you add adescription after the asterisk?
[01:49] <Nighthawk420> thers another one tho
[01:49] <Nighthawk420> u do it after it
[01:49] <Netham45> ?
[01:49] <charly17201> thanks everyone! i'll be back later more than likely as i explore this new system.
[01:49] <CountX> Savage-{: for both of us?
[01:49] <bzaks> nighthawk: after the eth0 up: type in dhclient3
[01:49] <Savage-{> CountX, you will have to get the codecs though for movies
[01:50] <cafuego> Netham45: In the editor, after running dch...
[01:50] <ninjabooty> honestly, I wish there was a non-profit organization that *gave* people legit copies of XP just so people wouldn't have to pirate the virus infected crap that only does more harm than good in the end
[01:50] <Netham45> no
[01:50] <jrib> xazo: no, the evolution-dev will not install evolution-exchange.
[01:50] <bzaks> ninjabooty: go to offtopic
[01:50] <wundaboy> what rss reader is popular?
[01:50] <CountX> Savage-{: yes, my father watches a lot of movies, mostly divx/xvid
[01:50] <ninjabooty> like "prove you have food stamps and we'll just give you XP SP3 and Office2k7"
[01:50] <scguy318> ninjabooty: XP is already virus infected out of box ;)
[01:50] <cafuego> Netham45: You changed the version to 1:4.3p2-8ubuntu1+chroot, add a small description after the asterisk.
[01:50] <ScorpKing> ninjabooty: what's the fun in that?
[01:50] <Savage-{> CountX, yeah just run totem movie player and it will automatically download them
[01:50] <cafuego> Netham45: ... when done, save and exit the editor.
[01:50] <Savage-{> when you play the file
[01:50] <CountX> Savage-{: i would like to learn about linux as i go, dabling in a little here, little there, but still be able to switch back to xp for work
[01:51] <jvai> oo i need to upgrade from dapper...
[01:51] <Aishiko> why buy XP when Linux is free?
[01:51] <scguy318> CountX: prob dual-boot
[01:51] <tdyer> xp is free too ;-)
[01:51] <wundaboy> anyone? recommended rss reader?
[01:51] <Aishiko> coubntX why buy XP when Linux is free?
[01:51] <CountX> scguy318: is that hard?
[01:51] <jrib> wundaboy: liferea
[01:51] <Netham45> ok
[01:51] <cafuego> Netham45: Then, make sure all required depends for building are installed: 'sudo apt-get build-dep openssh-server'
[01:51] <bzaks> Aishiko: because Flash the authoring studio won't work well on wine
[01:51] <scguy318> CountX: no, the installer guides you through such a process
[01:51] <Netham45> apt-get build-dep openssh-server
[01:51] <ninjabooty> there's no such thing as a free lunch
[01:51] <scguy318> CountX: just make sure not to select use entire disk ;)
[01:51] <Netham45> god damn
[01:51] <Aishiko> Brazka ohh OK
[01:51] <Savage-{> CountX, If you want to know about everything go Gentoo, if you don't want to get that into it (which is very into it) then I would do debian.
[01:51] <xazo> i ran the apt-get install evolution-dev and it completed. When I open evolution its still on same version 2.10.1
[01:51] <CountX> scguy318: oh sweet cool
[01:52] <xazo> not 2.10.3
[01:52] <CountX> scguy318: i'll still back my files up tho, just incase i still screw it up :P
[01:52] <Savage-{> CountX, Gentoo will show you everything of how the system is built
[01:52] <cafuego> xazo: Yes, -dev is a set of development headers, not a -dev version of the actual software.
[01:52] <CountX> Savage-{: gentoo?
[01:52] <Savage-{> yeah
[01:52] <scguy318> CountX: i think the Gentoo people have a fine CLI game called rm -rf /
[01:52] <bzaks> CountX: Gentoo is not for the faint of heart
[01:52] <Netham45> lol
[01:52] <bzaks> scguy: LOL
[01:52] <PriceChild> scguy318, please do not post that int his channel ever again.
[01:52] <ninjabooty> I consider most 'nix a massive quagmire ... I can take it though
[01:52] <CountX> then its not for me :P
[01:52] <scguy318> PriceChild: sorry
[01:52] <rdvon> Hello, I was installing an hp photosmart c5100 using the hplip program, the printer is on a network and seems to be not working, it is not hardware related as far as I know.. The problem is it will start loading when I turn it on, but than after that it will give me a red green blue bar pattern.
[01:52] <defishguy> Hello everyone
[01:53] <Netham45> cafuego, it needs to download ~150mb of packages.
[01:53] <ninjabooty> but someone that just wants to play their copy of fallout too can't and doesn't want to
[01:53] <wundaboy> CountX, I came from Gentoo and was skeptical at first ... but Ubuntu is just SO EASY
[01:53] <cafuego> Netham45: What!!
[01:53] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[01:53] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:53] <wundaboy> I just started using it
[01:53] <jrib> xazo: is there a good reason for compiling 2.10.3 instead of using the version in the repositories?
[01:53] <Netham45> that is what the command said.
[01:53] <jrib> !who | xazo
[01:53] <ubotu> xazo: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[01:53] <bzaks> rdvon: use cups
[01:53] <Netham45> ...
[01:53] <Netham45> >(
[01:53] <ninjabooty> ubuntu must be the easiest I've used thus far
[01:53] <bzaks> cupsys*
[01:53] <cafuego> Netham45: 150Mb of apckages or 150mb used after install?
[01:53] <rdvon> bzaks: it's a printer problem..
[01:53] <rdvon> :|
[01:53] <Netham45> after install
[01:53] <Netham45> wtf
[01:53] <Savage-{> Gentoo takes a lot of dedication and time, but I learned more about linux with that than any distro
[01:53] <cafuego> Ok, that's probably about right.
[01:53] <cafuego> Annoying, but right.
[01:53] <defishguy> I've got a corrupt tarball that was made by sbackup in Feisty.  Does anyone have a suggestion on recovery?
[01:53] <PriceChild> !offtopic | Savage-{
[01:53] <ninjabooty> but then I run into stuff like "why does FTP take 40 seconds to log in with the default install"
[01:53] <ubotu> Savage-{: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:54] <xazo> jrib, when i run apt-get evolution-exchange i get this reply ---> evolution-exchange is already the newest version.
[01:54] <CountX> i have a fedora 7 install on a ext3 partition, but i installed xp on a dif partition and M$ wrote over the mbr, so now i want to isntall a new distro....thats the jist of my story
[01:54] <xazo> what other repository are you speaking of?
[01:54] <CountX> plus my dad needs a free, legal, OS
[01:54] <Grungebunny> Digg had some post not too long ago of the most popular linux distros.. I think gentoo was 2nd or 3rd.
[01:54] <Aishiko> bbl
[01:54] <jrib> xazo: is there a good reason for compiling 2.10.3 instead of using the version 2.10.1 in the repositories?
[01:55] <Netham45> cafuego, ok, that is done
[01:55] <Savage-{> CountX, you can do grub-install /dev/sda to rewrite the bootloader
[01:55] <Netham45> now what?
[01:55] <ninjabooty> gentoo is tight, if you like having an OS with no X that installs in less than 50MB :D
[01:55] <Savage-{> CountX, when in linux
[01:55] <ninjabooty> at least ... that's what I'd use it for
[01:55] <xazo> 2.10.1 doesn't have the exchange connector
[01:55] <defishguy> I've got a corrupt tarball that was made by sbackup in Feisty.  Does anyone have a suggestion on recovery?
[01:55] <xazo> jrib,
[01:55] <jrib> !compiling > xazo (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:55] <CountX> all he does is edit MS doc files, which i believe there is something on linux that can open them, and browse the web....how hard is it to read excel spreadsheets in unubtu?
[01:56] <Ahadiel> CountX, easy, OpenOffice
[01:56] <scguy318> CountX: easy, OpenOffice
[01:56] <scguy318> oops
[01:56] <kitche> CountX, depends if they are office 2007 format or not
[01:56] <ninjabooty> doesn't corel own staroffice now?
[01:56] <CountX> some are
[01:56] <jrib> xazo: you need to do 'sudo apt-get install build-essential && sudo apt-get build-dep evolution-exchange' and then do the normal ./configure routine (see ubotu's message)
[01:56] <boson> How do I find the working directory of a running job?
[01:56] <kitche> ninjabooty, umm no Sun owns staroffice and always have
[01:56] <tyoc> Hey people, I have installed ubuntu in a free space I have in the HD
[01:56] <scguy318> ninjabooty: StarOffice and OpenOffice are Sun
[01:56] <Savage-{> boson, ps
[01:56] <ninjabooty> ah, k
[01:56] <tyoc> now restarting the PC I get GRUB error 21

[01:57] <tyoc> Hey people, I have installed ubuntu in a free space I have in the HD, then after restart I get GRUB error 21, I dont know what is happening
[01:58] <Netham45> don't ban me, it is this crappy client that I need to change
[01:58] <Netham45> it was my client, not my router
[01:58] <kitche> !exploit
[01:58] <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
[01:59] <codeshah> how can I find out my Sun JVM version?
[01:59] <kitche> codename, java -version
[01:59] <kitche> codeshah, java -version or --version
[01:59] <tyoc> If after an installation of Ubuntu I get GRUB error 21, what mean taht???
[02:00] <codeshah> k.. and I guess I can manage that through apt-get ...
[02:00] <kitche> tyoc, 21 : Selected disk does not exist. This error is returned if the device part of a device- or full file name refers to a disk or BIOS device that is not present or not recognized by the BIOS in the system.

[02:01] <neztit1> w8 the wrong here???
[02:01] <CountX> can you get the UI running on a server ubuntu?
[02:01] <tyoc> I have the assumption that in the first boot it will do it OK
[02:01] <Netham45> cafuego, are you still here?
[02:01] <Ahadiel> CountX, sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[02:01] <slavik> CountX: yes, by installing needed/proper stuff (or ubuntu-desktop package :))
[02:01] <PriceChild> Netham45, I'm trying to sort it out sorry.
[02:01] <Spee_Der> Good night all, time for some zzz's. . .   Work comes too early for me...... Cheers. . .
[02:01] <CountX> thanks!!!!
[02:01] <Netham45> Ok
[02:01] <Netham45> no problem.
[02:02] <PriceChild> Netham45, it has been resolved, sorry about that.
[02:02] <Netham45> It's Ok
[02:02] <slavik> CountX: ubuntu-desktop depends on the needed/proper stuff but also includes extra stuff
[02:02] <Netham45> just a mistake, mistakes happen. :D
[02:02] <veynom> is there a program in linux to tell my my CPU and system temperature?

[02:02] <lns> has anyone tried porting the "system-config-users" user management tool to Ubuntu?
[02:03] <slavik> CountX: why do you need/want X on a server?
[02:03] <Ahadiel> lns, the current dialog doesn't suffice?
[02:03] <CountX> slavik: to get on irc...
[02:03] <kitche> tyoc, don't know how to fix it sicne I can't find much information on how to fix it might want to check out grub's homepage though
[02:03] <lns> Ahadiel, nope
[02:03] <Ahadiel> lns, o-o, how so?
[02:03] <lns> Ahadiel, it has many bugs/weirdnesses which make it very hard in a large environment
[02:03] <slavik> CountX: find bitchx or irsii
[02:03] <ninjabooty> where's all the irssi at ?

[02:04] <kitche> codeshah, yes what are you on edgy or feisty
[02:04] <Ahadiel> lns, ah :>
[02:05] <codeshah> feisty (7.04?)
[02:05] <slavik> codeshah: download the jdk/jre via synaptic and the use update-alternatives to change it :)
[02:05] <CountX> slavik: oh damn i need another cat5e...
[02:05] <slavik> CountX: sorry, I don't spin copper wires :P
[02:05] <lns> Ahadiel, one strange thing is that it doesn't tell you that it doesn't apply changes until you actually exit the app
[02:05] <elzbal> codeshah: Sun java 5 and 6 are both available via synaptic.
[02:05] <coz_> ok guys I have mplayer installed however when I insert a dvd totem open s by default how to make mplayer the default player/
[02:05] <lns> Ahadiel, that's just crazy to me
[02:06] <Ahadiel> lns, hrm yeah that is strange, I'll see what I can dig up
[02:06] <CountX> slavik: i wish i could
[02:06] <tyoc> Or some 1 know a boot manager that can detect automatically the HD and partitions and launchd them??
[02:07] <cafuego> Netham45: When all that download is done, 'fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage -b'
[02:07] <jrib> coz_: system -> preferences -> removable drives and media
[02:07] <lns> Ahadiel, i could give you a big list, if you have anything to do with the package ;)
[02:07] <coz_> jrib, ok let me look :)
[02:07] <Netham45> shit, I g2g
[02:07] <Netham45> bbl
[02:08] <lns> Ahadiel, no sort/search ability, strange default demands on password strength (just let us decide already), ...
[02:08] <Ahadiel> lns, nah I don't, I"m just some guy :>
[02:08] <SpudDogg> Arrgh, Oblivion on Ubuntu looks like a no-go for right now
[02:08] <xazo> jrib, I just ran the commands to install evolution-exchange; sudo apt-get install build-essential & sudo apt-get build-dep evolution-exchange, ./configure and make and make install.
[02:08] <jrib> xazo: ok
[02:08] <xazo> jrib, after install, i open evolution and is still version 2.10.1 and not 2.10.3
[02:08] <xazo> when i click on about
[02:08] <coz_> jrib, thanks guy duh  i sort of new this but had removed  removable media from withing  alacarte    thanks again :)
[02:09] <ninjabooty> is there an ubuntu livecd?
[02:09] <jrib> xazo: were there errors?  You might need to restart or something because I have no idea how evolution-exchange works but it probably stays open in the background
[02:09] <Grungebunny> ninjabooty of course
[02:09] <wundaboy> I am trying to backup my blackberry and i installed barry but when i open it, it says 'no rim devices found'
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib: fyi.. I got bumped to unregged even though I have auto identify..  Konversation might be a little slow in identifying me.. Not a biggie, just wanted to let someone know..
[02:10] <ScorpKing> tyoc: see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub/+bug/8978
[02:10] <wundaboy> do i need to enable anything for the usb?
[02:10] <xazo> jrib, if it worked, i should be able to open evolution, click on ABOUT and have correct version. yes?
[02:11] <xazo> i will close it again and check again.
[02:11] <ninjabooty> ok, by livecd I mean, boot and run linux without touching the hard disks
[02:11] <FFForever> is there anything like launchy (a windows app) or quick silver (same thing for mac...) for linux?
[02:11] <jrib> xazo: evolution-exchange probably runs in the background and the old one is still running
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> ninjabooty: YEs
[02:11] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: thanks, you're probably right about it just being slow in identifying
[02:12] <ninjabooty> is it just an option from the boot screen or what?
[02:12] <xazo> ah
[02:12] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib: No worries...
[02:12] <savvas> if I switch from x86 to amd64 version, do I have to format the /home/ partition as well?
[02:12] <Jack_Sparrow> ninjabooty: There is livecd and server and alt...
[02:12] <seamus_> savvas: nope
[02:13] <savvas> thanks seamus_ :)
[02:13] <ninjabooty> should I just get gnoppix?
[02:13] <Jack_Sparrow> ninjabooty: No, Ubuntu is really nice
[02:13] <CountX_> yay
[02:13] <xazo> brb.. reboot to see if makes difference in version for evolution
[02:13] <savvas> ninjabooty: what was the question?
[02:13] <xazo> peace out.
[02:13] <ninjabooty> ok, so this fiesty iso that I'm downloading, i'll be able to livecd from it?
[02:14] <kitche> ninjabooty, if it's desktop ues
[02:14] <Jack_Sparrow> ninjabooty: Yes, as long as you did not get server or alt
[02:14] <elzbal> ninjabooty: If it's the regular CD, yes.
[02:14] <CountX_> hey can an op please boot CountX, thats a ghost
[02:14] <ninjabooty> *sweet*
[02:14] <savvas> yes ninjabooty :) you press enter as soon as you see the boot menu from the cd

[02:15] <Souppy> can someone tell me what I need to chance? I installed ubuntu with ALT CD (dos) and now when I do updates its ALWAYS asking for me to install the UBUNTU CDROM? How do I get it all back to the internet for updates?
[02:15] <CountX> Ahadiel: thanks you :D
[02:16] <CountX> i was in unreged limbo for a while
[02:16] <kitche> Souppy, comment the cdrom in your sources.list
[02:16] <radioaktivstorm> does anyone know how to completely reset wireless configuration? i want a clean slate.... my wireless is a mess... it will not obtain ips from open access points (like my school's) consistently. its driving me crazy and im considering reinstalling... but maybe there is a better way to fix this... reinstalling all of my applications and what not between problem sets and stuff.... not such a good idea. any suggestions?
[02:16] <monst--> savvas: http://pastebin.com/m311709c0
[02:17] <DjViper> radioaktivstorm: hmm, do you have a seperate /home partition?
[02:17] <charly17201> thanks to all that helped me earlier. it worked great!
[02:17] <Souppy> deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.04 _Feisty Fawn_ - Release i386 (20070415)] / feisty main restricted??
[02:17] <Souppy> comment that line?
[02:17] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[02:17] <kitche> Souppy, yes all the cdrom lines
[02:17] <tyoc> ScorpKing: thanks for the link, I will check it out, actually I have downloaded another boot manager, I will check if that work... anyway, my problem come after switching of mother board...
[02:17] <radioaktivstorm> DjViper, yes i do. however, i would rather not have to reinstall all of my junk
[02:17] <Souppy> ok thanks lets see
[02:17] <monst--> savvas: here is the other error http://pastebin.com/m21cbada4
[02:18] <savvas> monst--: have you tried: sudo apt-get install --reinstall mailscanner && sudo apt-get remove --purge mailscanner
[02:18] <CountX> can someone help me, im alittle confused as to the major differences between ubuntu and fedora...
[02:18] <SeveredCross> =-O
[02:18] <SeveredCross> Sorry, wrong window. :)
[02:18] <SeveredCross> Well.
[02:18] <ScorpKing> tyoc: it's a common problem but can be fixed.
[02:18] <SeveredCross> For one, Ubuntu's Debian based
[02:18] <Souppy> thanks
[02:18] <SeveredCross> Fedora is Red Hat based.
[02:18] <Souppy> hoep that works
[02:19] <chris_> is there anything like launchy (a windows app) or quick silver (same thing for mac...) for linux?
[02:19] <SeveredCross> Different package management systems, different philosophy, etc.
[02:19] <monst--> savvas: trying now
[02:19] <Souppy> also I was told to enable true type fonts how?
[02:19] <CountX> SeveredCross: and red hat is a corporate?
[02:19] <charly17201> could anyone send me a link that explains how/what to do once i've downloaded a ".bin" file to... i guess decompress it and install it?
[02:19] <SeveredCross> Red Hat is an "Enterprise" Linux yeah
[02:19] <Grungebunny> chris_ I believe gdesklets has app launchers
[02:19] <SeveredCross> Fedora is the free arm of Red Hat.
[02:19] <monst--> savvas: same errors
[02:19] <Jack_Sparrow> charly17201: the place where you got the bin should have instructions
[02:19] <CountX> ok maybe i should rephrase, the major, important differences
[02:19] <tyoc> ScorpKing: I have listed from a guy that when you install, the installation "get married" with the hardware parts... thus changing my motherboard as trashed my boot
[02:20] <chris_> ..., i can't live without my quick silver (lol), any idea of some names?
[02:20] <Jack_Sparrow> charly17201: Of course it is always better to stick with the reops and the package manager
[02:20] <charly17201> Jack_Sparrow: yeah, but they are written for someone that is not new to linux.
[02:20] <savvas> monst--: sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get -f install
[02:20] <Jack_Sparrow> charly17201: They are written to be way easier than doing it yourself
[02:20] <charly17201> jack_sparrow: reops???
[02:20] <Jack_Sparrow> repos
[02:21] <XiXaQ> charly17201, repositories.
[02:21] <Jack_Sparrow> charly17201: What are you trying to install
[02:21] <cishpix> what should I use in my network if I want to make a server like PDC but for linux-linux machine?
[02:21] <CountX> how might i switch from fedora to ubuntu, without loosing files?
[02:21] <charly17201> XiXaQ: thanks
[02:21] <Jack_Sparrow> CountX: data shouldnt be a problem.. apps.. not gonna work
[02:21] <Nehal> i have a usb flash drive and i want to write a floppy boot image to it, i do 'dd if=imgfile of=/dev/sdc' but that doesn't seem to work, (i get some register output when i try to boot).. is there any way to get this to work, my bios doesn't have any FD boot emulation option
[02:21] <ScorpKing> tyoc: that's pissible. go throught the link i gave you, the solution is on there.
[02:22] <XiXaQ> CountX, that's difficult, and alot of work. The easiest, would probably be to save your home directory and do a clean install, then replace the home.
[02:22] <monst--> savvas: first 2 commands worked, last one gave same error
[02:22] <CountX> i have like, an HD movie, and a lot fo games, thats all
[02:22] <savvas> CountX: if you have your /home/ in a different partition than / (root) then you shouldn't lose any files from your home dir
[02:22] <CountX> like a 12gb movie file, and then like 30gb of games
[02:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Nehal: What image are you putting on the disk.. a dos boot floppy or?
[02:22] <CountX> its all on one partition
[02:23] <tyoc> OK ScorpKing, I g2 read, first I will try another thing I found, then I return back to read ;)
[02:23] <savvas> CountX: then you must slash it in two :)
[02:23] <SuperLag> 00 17 * * * /home/oracle/code/bash/DST_script
[02:23] <SuperLag> correct me if I'm wrong... but that should run DST_script at 5pm, right?
[02:23] <ScorpKing> tyoc: might be easier to read. :)
[02:23] <savvas> monst--: did it clean up anything?
[02:23] <CountX> savvas: dang?
[02:24] <Nehal> Jack_Sparrow: a linux one, it works when i 'dd' to a regular floppy and try to boot that... the boot sector is included in the file so i don't think that's the problem
[02:24] <CountX> savvas: that sounds....difficult
[02:24] <monst--> savvas yes
[02:24] <savvas> CountX: well the easiest thing is to do what XiXaQ said.. transfer to another hard disk/partition... borrow from a friend :)
[02:24] <ScorpKing> tyoc: I changed the second drive from <code>auto-detect</code> type to <code>manual</code> and <code>LBA</code> and then both operating systems could boot from GRUB without errors.
[02:24] <monst--> but not mailscanner unforunately
[02:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Nehal: where did you get that image, I would like to get a copy
[02:24] <devilsreject> is there an easy way to burn divx movies in ubuntu?
[02:24] <albertmk>  I need help. I am Kubuntu user (#kubuntu users cant help me). I made a mistake by reconfiguring my video driver and it is a mess now. I want to know how I can recover my old drivers configurations that were installed during kubuntu installation.
[02:24] <CountX> savvas: i dont have any friends....that would lend me a HDD
[02:24] <charly17201> okay, question about the package manager. do i need to 'move' the bin file to a specific location in order for the package manager to see that it is on the computer?
[02:24] <Nehal> just a second, i'll get the link
[02:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Nehal: thanks...

[02:33] <orion1> there is a default one that it loads
[02:33] <Netham45> cafuego?
[02:33] <savvas> orion1: try deluge from www.deluge-torrent.org
[02:33] <kitche> devilsreject, making a video dvd is not the same as a data dvd you have to convert the divx file into something that the dvd can use like a vob
[02:33] <ScorpKing> tyoc: it gets changed often but it will be there.
[02:33] <StaticKrunch> after about 5 minutes my mouse stops working my neighbor says its a driver conflict and i should download a linux driver for my mouse but i cant find any
[02:33] <kitche> devilsreject, unless your dvd player can use divx then just put the divx file on the dvfd
[02:34] <kitche> dvd*
[02:34] <CountX> debian vs. ubuntu?

[02:37] <sukki> can someone help me with that? i think im missing something key to compiling it
[02:37] <sukki> but im not sure
[02:37] <Nehal> Jack_Sparrow: for me, yes it does... just not from a usb drive
[02:37] <monst--> savvas: someone mentioned i could manually remove it from the cache
[02:37] <clouder> Sometimes when I play WoW, my comp just freezes and I'm forced to reboot.  The thing amarok still runs and plays music fine, and the mouse still moves, but nothing else.  No repsonse to mouse clicks or keyboard input unless I do alt-ctrl RB. Anyone know of a way I can just kill wine or something so that I don't have do reboot entirely?
[02:37] <monst--> so it doesnt think its installed
[02:37] <ScorpKing> tyoc: do you have the link to the screenshot?
[02:37] <Nehal> Jack_Sparrow: my guess is it's looking for an MBR ... :/
[02:37] <monst--> then i could install it over it

[03:09] <dmct> hello, i'm trying to install gretl, an econometrics application, but i get the following error: "checking for PNG support in gnuplot... no"
[03:09] <dmct> i've tried looking all over the net, but can't find a solution, could some of you guys help me?
[03:09] <dmct> I'd appreciate it
[03:09] <Pelo> dmct, try installing gnuplot
[03:10] <dmct> it's already intsalled
[03:10] <dmct> sorry, installed
[03:10] <T3hMikey> Lately, my sound hasn't worked. A while ago, I tried plugging into my motherboard's sound rather than my sound card, and it worked for a while. Then, my computer froze up, and now neither of them works. I have no idea why it's not working, and it was working just fine last night. Anyone have any ideas why?
[03:10] <Pelo> dmct,  I see 3 packages with gnuplot in the name you might want to consider insalling those as well
[03:11] <T3hMikey> I plugged into the motherboard to see if that would get around the problem, to clarify
[03:11] <Gswain> Anyone Know why a pure-ftpd-mysql package would not be trying to query mysql?
[03:11] <Pelo> T3hMikey, start with review these proceedure
[03:11] <Pelo> !sound | T3hMikey
[03:11] <ubotu> T3hMikey: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[03:11] <dmct> Pelo, you mean that gnuplot depeds on those packages?
[03:11] <kitche> Gswain, you have to configure it most likely?
[03:11] <T3hMikey> Pelo, I've already gone over the sound FAQ on the Ubuntu site. Every time I have trouble, it never helps. At all.
[03:11] <q_a_z_steve> wep leap help?

[03:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about leap - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:12] <Pelo> dmct, I mean that it is possible that the png support is in those packages
[03:12] <kitche> T3hMikey, what does alsamixer tell you what your sound is it's at the top
[03:12] <Pelo> T3hMikey, that's all I can provide, maybe someone else has an idea
[03:12] <CountX> oh snap, while installing ubuntu-desktop on a server, im getting errors
[03:12] <Pelo> CountX,  what's the error ?
[03:12] <T3hMikey> kitche, what do you mean? It... shows that I should have maxed sound. I don't get any sort of message or anything
[03:12] <CountX> when setting up the fonts, its failing to save to cache
[03:12] <dmct> pelo, which packages, btw
[03:13] <kitche> T3hMikey, at the top of it it tells you what sound card it's using if any at all
[03:13] <Pelo> dmct,  open synaptic and search for  gnuplot
[03:13] <q_a_z_steve> I cannot find a guide to get leap working on my live CD? I guess I need to get 0.6.5 of the network manager but how do I apt-get ???
[03:13] <CountX> can anyone help me
[03:13] <Ryuho> hey anyone, is comando anti-virus/spyware stuff any good?
[03:13] <Gswain> kitche: well I didn all the configuring from the tutorial. but I notice that when i just run /etc/init.d/pureftpd start it throws a -l pam option in there and i thought the whole purpose of having a pure-ftpd-mysql package is that it would look it up in mysql bey default
[03:13] <Pelo> CountX, try looking up the exact error msg in the forum  I don't have a clue
[03:13] <Netham45> I need an SSH server that will let me specify the folders other users have access to. I want them to have access to /var/www/<username> only.
[03:13] <ninjabooty> ok, I've never done a wireless linux before and I won't be here to ask questions later ... anything I should know about getting someone's USB wireless adapter working?
[03:13] <Pelo> Ryuho, you don'T realy need an AV in linux
[03:13] <foug> is there a better program than "gimp"? for editing images and such
[03:13] <kitche> Gswain, no I believe pureftpd-mysql just installs the mysql extensions for pureftpd
[03:13] <T3hMikey> kitche, oh, that, yeah, I made sure to tinker with the settings for both the motherboard and my sound card. No luck. There's also a mystery third option of no help or known origin...
[03:13] <ninjabooty> and if not, how can I help someone code a driver for it?
[03:13] <Ryuho> oops sorry, wrong window
[03:14] <Ryuho> i meant for windows
[03:14] <CountX> Pelo: poo...
[03:14] <CountX> Pelo: nothing

[03:15] <CountX> Pelo: nope, first time
[03:15] <CountX> Pelo: its still trying to do stuff, its just getting funky errors
[03:15] <Gswain> kitche: i cant seem to find where I would configure it to use an auth by default. i tried looking all through its init script and I cant seem to find where I would set that switch, i even looked around in /etc/pureftpd/conf and didnt see anything
[03:15] <dmct> pelo, except for the "gnuplot-mode"
[03:15] <Pelo> dmct, that's all I could realy provide , check on the site for the app see if they have a faq aboutthis
[03:16] <bzaks> Long story: I downloaded Ubuntu Server Edition, and to double check it, I rebooted the computer I am and did the CD test, then when I try to install on the server, it says that a certain file won
[03:16] <dmct> ok
[03:16] <CountX> Pelo: its bitchin about missing files and such here and there

[03:16] <Pelo> CountX,  if the install is still going, wait until it is finished before you start worrying it might be nothing havng to do wit the fact that some packages are already instaleld
[03:16] <ckin2001> Netham45, ssh server doesn't need to do this - unix file permissions are your friend
[03:17] <CountX> Pelo: alright....but i havent really installed anything on this server, i just need a desktop for a while tonight, and then im going to turn it back into a servefr
[03:17] <ninjabooty> wtf? fiesty won't burn
[03:17] <ninjabooty> I'll bet this is sony's fault
[03:17] <Pelo> bzaks, are you using a live cd or an alternate install one ?
[03:17] <bzaks> Server CD
[03:17] <bzaks> (so it's a text based installer)
[03:17] <benanz1> I installed the subversion version of the uvcvideo module for my isight, how can I tell if it's being used instead of the stock Ubuntu version?
[03:18] <ckin2001> benanz1, kernel module?
[03:18] <benanz1> ckin: yes
[03:18] <ckin2001> benanz1, lsmod
[03:18] <Pelo> bzaks, hmm,  server cd is basicaly just the alt cd with a few extra packages in the default install , you could try with the go to cli install and then install the extra packages you need
[03:18] <southafrikanse> hello. I've reconfigured Xorg for higher screen resolutions. Now how can I change my resolution?
[03:18] <bzaks> Okay, I'll try it.
[03:18] <foug> what's the command to see my used and free space on my hard drive?
[03:18] <ckin2001> df
[03:19] <Pelo> southafrikanse, should be in menu > system > prefs > screen rez , if the one you want'T isn'T there ,  edit xorg.conf and add the rez you want then restart X
[03:19] <southafrikanse> Pelo, thank you
[03:20] <benanz1> the stock Ubuntu version installs in "/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/usb/media/uvcvideo.ko" but the svn version installs in "/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/video/usb/media/uvcvideo.ko" -- how to tell which one is being loaded?
[03:20] <ninjabooty> what's with DVD-RWs not being able to write to CDs? pisses me off to no end?
[03:20] <tators> wheres the command prompt on feisty
[03:20] <tators> I hate this gui
[03:20] <foug> is it safe to delete the tmp folder?
[03:20] <Pelo> ninjabooty, I don'T have that problem , might be the quality of the media
[03:21] <ectospasm> foug:  you probably don't want to remove the tmp directory entirely, several daemons/programs rely on it being there
[03:21] <Pelo> ninjabooty,  I think I've read something about sony dvd-rw not writing to realy realy cheap cds
[03:21] <benanz1> tators: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal or CTRL-ALT-F2
[03:21] <kitche> foug: not really unless you want your X to break
[03:21] <nickrud> foug: no; you can delete the contents, but the directory is needed
[03:21] <foug> ectospasm: k thank you
[03:21] <ninjabooty> well, these are really cheap CDs, fo sho
[03:21] <foug> kitche: lol k
[03:22] <foug> nickrud: hmmm so basically if i know what's in there i don't need i'm safe?
[03:22] <ectospasm> foug:  and I wouldn't delete anything in there that you can't identify
[03:22] <Pelo> ninjabooty,  so much for being trifty
[03:22] <nickrud> foug: see ectospasm
[03:22] <foug> ectospasm: k, thanks
[03:22] <Jose> HII
[03:22] <ninjabooty> note to self, Memorex is a shit-brand
[03:22] <foug> nickrud: aye :P
[03:22] <Jose> SOMEONE TO HELPME
[03:22] <tators> benanz: thanks, is there a way to make it not full screeN?
[03:22] <Netham45> what is the autorun for bash?
[03:22] <foug> so you guys know a command i can use in terminal to see how much free space i have on my hard drive?
[03:22] <Pelo> Jose,  we need actual qustions
[03:22] <ckin2001> foug - df
[03:22] <Jose> WHAT'S THE COMMAND TO REPAIR THE HD IN UBUNTU
[03:22] <maedhros> ...
[03:22] <Netham45> !caps | Jose
[03:22] <ninjabooty> been nothing but an onslaught of problems even since I bought this batch of CDs
[03:22] <benanz1> tators: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[03:22] <ubotu> Jose: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[03:22] <Pelo> Jose, we can read small case
[03:23] <foug> ckin2001: sweet, what does that stand for?
[03:23] <xtv-ca> "invalid compressed format" problem installing kubuntu. Some ideas?
[03:23] <Pelo> Jose,  define repair ?
[03:23] <ckin2001> foug, disk free i think
[03:23] <tators> benanz: I did ctl-alt-f2 -- how do I get out of full screen?
[03:23] <Netham45> what is the file that bash executes on run?
[03:23] <ckin2001> foug, du - disk usage, but you have to pass it options to make it pretty
[03:23] <kitche> foug: df -h makes it "human" readable
[03:23] <foug> ckin2001: hmm k, got a link to more info on it? some of this stuff i don't recognize, like procbususb and udev and such
[03:23] <benanz1> CTRL+ALT+F2 to go to full screen terminal CTRL+ALT+F7 to go back to BUI
[03:23] <benanz1> GUI
[03:23] <nickrud> Netham45: not autorun, but /etc/profile , /etc/bash.bashrc, ~/.profile and ~/.bashrc are places you can put things for bash to read when a terminal is started
[03:23] <Netham45> Ok
[03:23] <tators> thanks benanz
[03:23] <Netham45> yu
[03:23] <Netham45> ty*
[03:23] <ckin2001> foug, not really, just man df :p
[03:23] <tobias> grr, i got my laptop to suspend once (on a new install), then i ran the updates, and now i can't suspend anymore
[03:23] <foug> kitche: ahh cool
[03:24] <kitche> Netham45, ~/.bash_profile also
[03:24] <foug> ckin2001: o yea man, i always forget about that, lol
[03:24] <tobias> i tried (a) the old kernel and (b) turning off the ATI drivers, but neither of those worked
[03:24] <shelia_> i need to put a parental lock on my program, can someone explain how i do this?
[03:24] <nickrud> er, not ~/.profile (always type those a few times till I get the one I want)
[03:25] <kitche> nickrud, well it uses ~/.profile also not .bashrc though
[03:25] <bulmer> Netham45: if you mean at logon -- those are run..but if you are just running bash  from a terminal, they dont get executed
[03:25] <Pelo> shelia_,  create a user account for your kids and then deni permsssion to certain progs,  not sure how you do it but I think that is the way to go
[03:25] <benanz1> does this server support encryption?
[03:25] <kitche> nickrud, .bashrc is used for interactive shells unless you source it in .bash_profile
[03:25] <Jose> Pelo, i can't install ubuntu in my pc
[03:25] <mangojambo> hi ... is there here from glasgow scotland ?
[03:25] <shelia_> we tried but they just keep logging on under my name even after change of password. is there a way i can do it under my account?
[03:25] <nickrud> kitche: I seem to lose that sequence about 10 minutes after relearning it :)
[03:26] <Jose> it stop when it's in 15%
[03:26] <nickrud> sort of like relativity
[03:26] <Pelo> Jose, the cd won't boot ? it boots but you can't perform the install ?  the install starts but something happens ?
[03:26] <kitche> nickrud, myself I put everything in .bashrc and have it sourced but I m gettign away from bash
[03:27] <benanz1> shelia_: are their accounts allow to 'administer the system'?
[03:27] <Netham45> gah
[03:27] <nickrud> kitche: that's how I get around it as well
[03:27] <shelia_> no
[03:27] <Netham45> I need an sftpd that will let me specify one folder the user has access to.
[03:27] <Pelo> Jose, try using the alternate install cd , it requires less resources to install might be easier on your comp
[03:27] <nickrud> had to go look again, to remember which sourced which
[03:27] <Netham45> I want the user to have access to /var/www/<user>/*
[03:27] <Netham45> and subdirs
[03:27] <Jose> Pelo, I can load the alternate an the desktop cd but When  it is isntalling it stops in 15%
[03:27] <benanz1> They shouldn't be able to change their own password if set as limited user.  I think that's an admin task
[03:28] <shelia_> it would just be easier to block the programs on my account because they keep getting the password
[03:28] <Jose> Pelo, I tried with mandriva 2007
[03:28] <nickrud> benanz1: yes, they can change their own password.
[03:28] <benanz1> how are they getting the password?
[03:28] <Jose>  so the same happens
[03:28] <matthew_> does anyone know an easy way to download the divx codec, i dowloaded the linux version and installed it in root but it doesnt work is there an easier way or something i am doing wrong
[03:28] <shelia_> we don't know
[03:28] <xtv-ca> no ideas about solving my "invalid compressed format" problem? :-(
[03:28] <shelia_> can we not block them on my account
[03:29] <Jose> But, mandriva sais: make chkdsk/f
[03:29] <linuxgeekery> xtv-ca: just got here, what's the problem? :)
[03:29] <xtv-ca> well, just I try to install kubuntu and it says "invalid compressed format"
[03:29] <linuxgeekery> xtv-ca: when booting the livecd?
[03:29] <Pelo> Jose,  pre partition your hdd ,  make 3 partition   one / 5-10 gig ext3, /swap 2xram , the rest for /home ext3 ,   then use manual partitonning when you get to that step,   and only let the installer format the / partition , that might help , it will cut down on some of the work
[03:29] <xtv-ca> yes
[03:30] <linuxgeekery> xtv-ca: did the OS itself get a chance to load or is this the boot menu?
[03:30] <xtv-ca>  err=1
[03:30] <aztec13> excuse me wat is the other ubuntu off topic # ?
[03:30] <xtv-ca> i am in the menu
[03:30] <xtv-ca> with "start or install kubuntu", "start kubuntu in dafe graphics mode", ...
[03:30] <linuxgeekery> xtv-ca: ok... couple of things that could be a problem
[03:30] <aztec13> xero, how do i get back ?
[03:30] <xtv-ca> *safe
[03:30] <unagi__> whats the command to see your cpu information?
[03:30] <Netham45> cafuego, are you here? Please say you are here.
[03:31] <linuxgeekery> xtv-ca: first, the downloaded iso (or somehow during the burn) is corrupted
[03:31] <aztec13> uboutu ?
[03:31] <Intangir> hey
[03:31] <xtv-ca> nero told it was burned without problems
[03:31] <maedhros> xtv-ca: Is there an alternative to check the consistency of the disk?
[03:31] <Intangir> how do i install mono? on ubuntu
[03:31] <linuxgeekery> xtv-ca: do you still have the ISO file?
[03:31] <xtv-ca> yes
[03:31] <xtv-ca> should I compare them?
[03:32] <linuxgeekery> xtv-ca: I would recommend doing an md5 check - ubotu will tell you how :)
[03:32] <linuxgeekery> !md5 > xtv-ca
[03:32] <john|g> afbeae1c2db6bd9e31eef146c1f84806
[03:32] <Jose> Pelo, I made  the chkdsk/f command and I installed Mnadriva but now ubuntu 7.04 ca'nt make changes in the HD,
[03:32] <benanz1> Set their user accounts so that they can't administer the system, then change the root password so it's not guessable, then change the executable permissions on the apps you don't want them to use to be your user's group/root only.  Make a group called "kids" or something and add them to it.  Then blacklist that group from running any of your apps.
[03:32] <aztec13> does anyone know how i can reformat my "chipod" mp4 player  ?
[03:32] <nickrud> shelia_: there's a gnome gconf key section called lockdown; you can use it to prevent them from using the terminal or run command dialog; if you edit the menu to what you want them to run, that may do it.
[03:32] <linuxgeekery> xtv-ca: just follow the link in the message ubotu sent :)
[03:32] <unagi__> !offtopic
[03:32] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:32] <aztec13> Can it be done from ubuntu ?
[03:32] <Jose> Pelo, I'll try with the latest version of GPARTED
[03:32] <Pelo> Jose, I'm not sure what changes you are talking about , sorry , I think your problem is a bit over my head
[03:33] <Intangir> how do i install mono? on ubuntu
[03:33] <linuxgeekery> !mono
[03:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mono - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:33] <xtv-ca> ok, I veryfy it, thanks
[03:33] <nickrud> !info mono
[03:33] <ubotu> mono: Mono CLI (.NET) runtime. In component main, is optional. Version 1.2.3.1-1ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 1 kB, installed size 24 kB
[03:33] <kitche> unagi_, what cpu info since it's /proc/cpuinfo
[03:34] <broofa> Xorg.conf help(please): How do you get Xorg to switch ServerLayouts based on what monitors are connected?
[03:34] <benanz1> anyone have luck with an iPhone syncing in Ubuntu?  just curious.
[03:34] <shelia_> how do i access that program?
[03:34] <broofa> I have a laptop, that may/may not be connected to external monitor.
[03:34] <Pelo> benanz1, I'd check in the forum for something like that
[03:34] <Jose> pELO, ubuntu can't delete partitions so I can't install ubuntu, because I need to delete partitions of mandriva to install ubuntu
[03:35] <Intangir> Could not find dependent assembly L"Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls"
[03:35] <Intangir> install the Windows version of Mono to run .NET executables
[03:35] <Intangir> what do i do?
[03:35] <Pelo> Jose,  ubuntu mounts the partition at start up on the live cd, you need to unmount them first
[03:35] <linuxgeekery> Intangir: what are you trying to run?
[03:35] <Intangir> a windows app written for .net
[03:35] <nickrud> shelia_: it's called gconf-editor , and the keys are under apps/desktop/gnome/lockdown. But having read what benanz1 just said, if they're even halfway bright they could probably get around this
[03:36] <Intangir> says im missing assemblies
[03:36] <Intangir> how doi  install mono assemblies
[03:36] <kitche> broofa, hmm not sure on feisty I know gutsy might have a feature for that though
[03:36] <linuxgeekery> Intangir: I'm not totally sure, but I think you might have to run it in Windows (or maybe wine) if it's built for windows... but I'm quite ignorant about mono :P
[03:36] <Jose> Pelo, Must I unmount the partitions before to begin the installation
[03:36] <Chillen> , im trying to download ubuntu for my laptop, but cant figure out which one to download, any help?
[03:37] <linuxgeekery> Chillen: What kind of laptop do you have?
[03:37] <n3tfury> without having to install all three, which do you think uses the least resources? amarok, banshee, or exaile?
[03:37] <Chillen> toshiba
[03:37] <Pelo> Jose, you shouldnT' have to but if you partition manualy you might have to
[03:37] <shelia_> Are there any other options then?
[03:37] <Pelo> Jose,  meaning I realy donT' know
[03:37] <nickrud> Chillen: you should get the alternate 32bit, for most reliable install and easiest operation
[03:37] <sukki> http://pastebin.com/m268a18e4 can someone take a look at this error and help me out for a sec? It's a path problem
[03:38] <Chillen> nickrud: where can i download it?
[03:38] <benanz1> sheila_:the gconf method is easily circumventable (if they know how to use google).  To truly lock them down you need to use UNIX user/group permissions.
[03:38] <linuxgeekery> Chillen: I would get "Standard personal computer" one
[03:38] <linuxgeekery> Chillen: works for 99.9% of PCs/Laptops
[03:38] <Chillen> wjere can i donwload that

[03:42] <Chillen> 64-bit PC?
[03:42] <randy026> No error.
[03:42] <cdm10> randy026: so, what happens when you try to install?
[03:42] <randy026> I click install now on mozillas webpage and nothing happens...

[03:43] <shelia__> i have kids under my groups, but when i click on properties nothing comes up
[03:43] <nickrud> Chillen: if you're ok with a text install, get the alternate. And if you have a 64 bit processor, you can use the 64 bit install, but 32 bit is easier to run for most users ; for example, you have to jump through hoops to get media, java & flash to work in firefox
[03:43] <randy026> If I wait long enough the add on box will pop up and act like it is going to install / download but it times out
[03:43] <randy026> shelia_, no
[03:43] <mathaeous> it gives me an error about the "(" symbol
[03:43] <cdm10> randy026: Have you tried in safe mode?

[03:48] <randy026> No one seems to know why lol sigh..
[03:48] <shelia__> does anyone know how i change the settings for a particular group
[03:48] <cdm10> randy026: did you try in safemode like I said?
[03:49] <nickrud> Random832: nope
[03:49] <shelia__> i don't know how to get to that, i know very little about navigating computers
[03:49] <taime1> how can i tell what motherboard i have in my laptop?
[03:49] <randy026> cdm10, yes it does the same thing
[03:49] <robert__> and where are the setting for the bindings located for compiz?
[03:49] <Tixer> Holy crap, I never realized Vista was this bad.
[03:49] <cdm10> shelia_I'm not sure what sort of groups you're talking about.
[03:49] <nickrud> shelia_: sorry, but I've never tried to lock people out of some stuff; not ignoring you, just have no help to offer
[03:49] <shelia__> that's fine
[03:49] <cdm10> randy026: hmm, I have no idea... try renaming your .mozilla folder to force it to create a new config
[03:49] <Xenguy> Tixer: it's DRM hell for one thing :-/
[03:49] <Tixer> I installed it for my media center, and I'm just trying to get freakin' VNC working, and it's acting like a dick.
[03:50] <randy026> hmm ok
[03:50] <nickrud> randy026: ooh, did you run sudo firefox ever?
[03:50] <rafaelscj> how do I to install lilo?
[03:50] <cdm10> nickrud: whoah, good call
[03:50] <shelia__> i was told to add my kids to the groups and then set which programs they could access. but idk how to do that
[03:50] <Pelo> !lilo | rafaelscj
[03:50] <ubotu> rafaelscj: lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[03:50] <randy026> nickrud, no not that I know of
[03:51] <ninjabooty> !slackware
[03:51] <ubotu> Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems)
[03:51] <ninjabooty> interesting
[03:51] <cdm10> randy026: open your home folder, do ctrl-h, find .mozilla, and rename it .mozilla.org
[03:51] <cdm10> shoot
[03:51] <nickrud> randy026: just for kicks:   sudo chown -R <you>:<you> .mozilla
[03:51] <cdm10> .mozilla.old
[03:51] <cdm10> randy026: actually, listen to nickrud, he knows what he's talking about :)
[03:52] <Pelo> ninjabooty, ther are close to 300 distros of linux,  slackware is the oldest one still being maintined i beleive, it is very stable ,and runs on very little hardware
[03:52] <kitche> hmm my users and groups applet is broken lol doesn't matter I don't use it just wanted to check it out
[03:52] <taime1> how can tell what motherboard is in my laptop?
[03:53] <ninjabooty> I started out on slack 3 or 4 I believe
[03:53] <ninjabooty> 40Mhz AMD 386
[03:53] <kitche> Pelo: yep it's the oldest :)
[03:53] <rockets> Anybody know why Tribe 6 hasn't been released yet?
[03:53] <Pelo> taime1, look up the model on the makers website
[03:53] <rafaelscj> Pelo, do you use slackware?
[03:53] <pawan1234> hi
[03:53] <cdm10> rockets: because it hasn't?
[03:53] <randy026>  sudo chown -R randy026:randy026 .mozilla
[03:53] <randy026>  like this correct?
[03:53] <cdm10> !gutsy | rockets
[03:53] <ubotu> rockets: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[03:53] <kitche> rockets, because they didn't want to release it maybe?
[03:53] <rockets> cdm10, what a stupid thing to say.
[03:53] <taime1> Pelo: unfortunately, its not listed on the manufacturer's site
[03:53] <rockets> cdm10, now you've said one stupid thing, and one non-helpful thing
[03:53] <cdm10> rockets: no, your question is a stupid thing to ask... they just haven't gotten to the point where they want to release another alpha CD
[03:54] <Pelo> rafaelscj, no I tired to install it when i started with linux last year but I wasn'T up to the challenge yet,  way to noob,  I haven't realy given it a try since
[03:54] <cdm10> rockets: and, you're asking in the wrong place.
[03:54] <nickrud> o-O
[03:54] <kitche> rockets, as most people say it will be released when it will be
[03:54] <Pelo> taime1, try google
[03:54] <rockets> Because they haven't is still a stupid thing to say.
[03:54] <taime1> ive done everything short of opening it up
[03:54] <ninjabooty> agh
[03:54] <Pelo> taime1, or possibly here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:54] <pawan1234_> xmms player latest version wanted
[03:54] <ninjabooty> I knew I remembered that from somewhere
[03:54] <cishpix> Anyone can help me??? What should I use for linux-linux machine like PDC in samba??
[03:54] <kitche> pawan1234_, hmm the latest should be in the repos but not sure since xmms is old
[03:55] <techjimbo> Pelo: Linux Distro Timeline, if you're interested.  http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/5090/linuxdistrotimeline75cr6.png
[03:55] <ninjabooty> the next Ubuntu should be Horny Harriet Hotpants - R. Crumb
[03:55] <cdm10> rockets: anyway, ask in the right place, and you'll probably get a better answer
[03:55] <Kr0ntab> hehe
[03:55] <randy026> nickrud, yeah that doesnt work either
[03:55] <Tixer> I swear to god, if I see another UAC popup, I'm going to stab my HTPC with a fork.
[03:55] <robert__> 9800 SE is using the restricted drivers best in ubuntu for compiz - fusion?
[03:55] <Pelo> techjimbo, i've seen that map before I was just telling ninjabooty about slackware
[03:55] <cdm10> rockets: just to tell you, you won't notice any real differences when they release Tribe 6. It's just a CD. You'll get updated to it automatically through normal updates in Gutsy.
[03:55] <Blazin> .lol
[03:55] <nickrud> randy026: then try cdm10 's solution, moving ~/.mozilla out of the way so you create a new config
[03:56] <pawan1234_> what time is it
[03:56] <randy026> trying it now
[03:56] <rockets> cdm10, yes but right now Tribe 5 wont boot on my PC
[03:56] <NickPresta> !repos
[03:56] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[03:56] <techjimbo> Pelo: Slack on then. :D
[03:56] <rafaelscj> Pelo, I use zipslack, do you know how to install lilo in a "filename.img"?
[03:56] <rockets> cdm10, or rather it boots but x just restarts over and over
[03:56] <Pelo> pawan1234_, 21.56 est
[03:56] <cdm10> rockets: so, try Tribe4, if you can find it, and update it. Or use the alternate CD.
[03:56] <techjimbo> any1 have any trouble with printing from mozilla?  the fonts show up smaller then print preview suggests
[03:56] <pawan1234_> cant change nickname
[03:56] <Pelo> rafaelscj, I don'T sorry
[03:56] <cdm10> rockets: either way, this is the wrong place to talk about it. Please go to #ubuntu+1
[03:56] <Pelo> rafaelscj,  there is a #lilo
[03:57] <Pelo> rafaelscj, nvm , it gets redirected to #freenode
[03:57] <kitche> rafaelscj, might want to ask ##slackware also but not sure if people even know how to use zipslack anymore :)
[03:57] <pawan1234_> hi
[03:57] <randy026> Yeah it all reset to default but, yet again same thing happens .. sigh
[03:58] <kitche> Pelo: probably due to Lilo most likely the guy that ran freenode but died
[03:58] <nickrud> randy026: try sudo aptitude reinstall firefox , if you haven't already that is
[03:58] <Pelo> kitche, ? when was this ?
[03:58] <randy026> maybe I should just download startard firefox and not the ubuntu version
[03:58] <pawan1> my azureus died
[03:58] <randy026> ok
[03:58] <kitche> Pelo: last year I believe
[03:58] <Blazin> ;\
[03:58] <Blazin> sup
[03:58] <nickrud> randy026: and those are the three things I can think of ;)
[03:58] <rafaelscj> Pelo, I used "dd if=/dev/hda ..." and I got a image of my mbr.
[03:58] <Pelo> pawan1, congradulations,  now you can get a client that won't eat half of your resources
[03:58] <randy026> well thanks for your help anyway :)
[03:59] <pawan1> which one
[03:59] <cdm10> pawan1: Azureus on Ubuntu is really flaky.
[03:59] <Pelo> rafaelscj,  stop telling me about this ,  it's over my head
[03:59] <Jack_Sparrow> rafaelscj: I would suggest you use 462 and not 512 to get mbr without the partition info
[03:59] <cdm10> pawan1: when it dies, it won't start up again until you delete ~/.azureus (which will erase your azureus config)
[04:00] <rafaelscj> Jack_Sparrow, do you know how to install lilo in a file: "filename.img"?
[04:00] <rafaelscj> Jack_Sparrow, is it possible?
[04:01] <randy026> Yeah that doesnt work either... oh well
[04:01] <bulio> what is the default config file location for zabbix agent in ubuntu?

[04:01] <techjimbo> any1 have any trouble with printing from firefox?  the fonts show up smaller then print preview suggests

[04:04] <needhelpPleaseo> anyone know where i can find the settings config file for compiz so i can manually edit them with out the manager??
[04:04] <bulio> ok
[04:04] <Flannel> bulio: Doesn't look like there is one.  But there are some samples in /usr/share/zabbix-agent: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?searchmode=filelist&word=zabbix-agent&version=feisty&arch=i386
[04:04] <bulio> found it

[04:06] <Flatfender> nickrud, and kitche, I do have XGL installed, and my ATI driver looks to be correct
[04:06] <mojo_> excuse me
[04:06] <mojo_> can someone show me which channel to discuss about Gutsy?

[04:06] <rafaelscj> Jack_Sparrow, did you use slackzip?, I want to add it to NTLDR... I got it before, but I forgot
[04:06] <mojo_> thanks every
[04:07] <mojo_> such a fast response
[04:07] <mojo_> happy with Ubuntu community :)

[04:07] <Pelo> mojo_, we do what we can
[04:07] <cdm10> rafaelscj: I missed the beginning of your question, why don't you want to use grub?
[04:08] <ichioni> question... im new to linux, although i had a semester of unix, im  trying to run wine in ubuntu64 i went here (http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit) and did as it said, but i cant get it to run
[04:08] <jrib> ichioni: how are you trying?
[04:08] <cdm10> ichioni: In Ubuntu, you need to install applications through the Ubuntu repositories.
[04:08] <cdm10> ichioni: try running the command < sudo aptitude install wine >
[04:09] <cdm10> ichioni: that should install wine from the Ubuntu software repositories
[04:09] <cdm10> !repos > ichioni
[04:09] <ninjabooty> Kool Keith should be the name of an Ubuntu release
[04:09] <aesebu55> I have 2 different USB gampads that work in jcalibration but the up/down/left/right won't work in FCE. I have tried several things I found on google but nothing is helping me
[04:09] <rafaelscj> Jack_Sparrow, I want to add zipslack in the NTLDR. for that, I need to have a mbr image
[04:09] <jrib> cdm10, ichioni: wine isn't in ubuntu's repositories for amd64, so ichioni will need to add winehq's repositories.  But, ichioni, you have no need to be building wine
[04:09] <stdin> ichioni: see http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[04:09] <jrib> !wine > ichioni (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:09] <cdm10> jrib: damn, sorry 'bout that
[04:10] <cdm10> ichioni: disregard what I said, I was wrong about that.
[04:10] <mojo_> excuse me again, is there much difference b/w original kernel and ubuntu kernel?
[04:10] <cdm10> rafaelscj: why are you asking about how to install zipslack into ntldr? Neither have anything to do with Ubuntu.
[04:11] <ninjabooty> when new patches, etc come out for ubuntu is there a utility for automated updates or do I have to think more like a sysadmin?
[04:11] <cdm10> ninjabooty: you'll see a notification that'll prompt you to install updates
[04:11] <Severin> Can someone help me install FlashPlayer?
[04:12] <cdm10> Severin: on x86 ubuntu, use < sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree >
[04:12] <sukki> hey is aclocal something i should have?
[04:12] <jrib> ninjabooty: update-manager shows up in your notification area and tells you about them, then you tell it to proceed
[04:12] <cdm10> ninjabooty: it's quite easy to use
[04:12] <sukki> because i cant figure out how to install aclocal through apt-get
[04:12] <jrib> sukki: what are you compiling?
[04:13] <sukki> jrib: xf86-video-intel
[04:13] <sukki> jrib: its a video card driver
[04:13] <jrib> sukki: that is different than what the "xserver-xorg-video-intel" package provides?
[04:13] <NickPresta> Pelo, you sure seem to like me ;)
[04:14] <Pelo> NickPresta, sorry ;-)
[04:14] <sukki> jrib: i think so. http://intellinuxgraphics.org/download.html
[04:14] <sukki> jrib: unless the new x.org has it included now
[04:14] <Extravert> Hello.  If I have problems installing a deb file, can I just extract it and move the files into place manually?
[04:14] <tobias> question about X terminals -- what ever happened to good old copy-on-select and paste-on-right-click support?
[04:15] <tobias> i tried gterm, xterm, eterm, ... none of them seem to behave as i'd like
[04:15] <ahugh3s> Just to ask a general app question sorry... for those who have seen Launchy on windowns is there an equivalent in ubuntu. if you dont know what Im talking about it.. this is hotkey/index on the start-menu. So press alt+space. type fir.. enter would launch firefox. Very verry good way to navigate
[04:15] <odai> I'm on feisty, and when I use gparted to try to edit my partition, it won't allow me to do anything, all of the options are grayed out....and help?
[04:15] <xtv-ca> linuxgeekery, thanks, the iso file was corrupted:  "WARNING: 1 of 1 computed checksum did NOT match"
[04:15] <drgonzo> hello all
[04:16] <cdm10> odai: run gparted from a livecd, not from your system.
[04:16] <drgonzo> I've got a CA0106 audio chipset in my computer. I've setup alsa using asoundconfig, and speaker-test plays to all my 4.1 speakers. But gnome audio controller only works with the front speaker channel. SO does all my audio software
[04:16] <sukki> jrib: should i be trying to install the new x.org instead?
[04:16] <cdm10> odai: download the gparted livecd from the gparted site, I find it more reliable than gparted from the Ubuntu livecd
[04:16] <drgonzo> have I left something out ?
[04:16] <odai> cdm10: alright thanks
[04:16] <ichioni> thanks guys that worked :D
[04:17] <NewUser> hello everyone
[04:17] <NewUser> can anyone help me with what I thought was the most basic thing of all?
[04:17] <jrib> sukki: the description for xserver-xorg-video-intel says "This package is built from the X.org xf86-video-intel driver module.".  Make sure you need to compile before you do so.  aclocal is in the "automake" package (you can use packages.ubuntu.com or !apt-file in the future to figure out what package provides a file)
[04:17] <drgonzo> Amarok for example won't play to any other speakers
[04:18] <crdlb> sukki, what intel video chip do you have?
[04:18] <dutch_> NewUser: might help if you tell us what that is :)
[04:18] <NewUser> I am having trouble installing!!!
[04:18] <sonny> Anyone know of a good ubuntu software for membership management.  Specifically a rifle and pistol club.  Any good club management program would work.
[04:18] <dutch_> NewUser: what kind of trouble
[04:18] <NewUser> I am tryng to do a dual-boot
[04:19] <NewUser> with windows
[04:19] <CountX> sonny: if you find one, i would sure like to know
[04:19] <dutch_> NewUser: i assume Windows is already installed?
[04:19] <NewUser> so I try running the live cd of 7.04
[04:19] <NewUser> yeah
[04:19] <dutch_> NewUser: okay then, you plug in the LiveCD, and...
[04:19] <CountX> !who !NewUser
[04:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about who !newuser - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:19] <DjViper> NewUser: whats the problem?
[04:19] <NewUser> and it keeps freezing during the 7 install steps
[04:19] <CountX> !who NewUser
[04:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about who newuser - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:19] <sonny> countx I have found some but they want a lot of money and we don't have much.
[04:19] <NewUser> different steps
[04:20] <dutch_> NewUser: at any specific time, or a seemingly random time?
[04:20] <CountX> sonny: surely theres an OSS sulution???....right
[04:20] <sukki> crdlb: x3100
[04:20] <Jabapyth> how do you stop arecord, after you've started it?
[04:20] <cdm10> Jabapyth: ctrl-c?
[04:20] <Xero> killall -9 arecord
[04:20] <NewUser> sometimes it is during the partitioning, sometimes jsut when I type in my name info
[04:20] <sonny> Countx: yes but just thought there should be something around that would do the job
[04:21] <dutch_> NewUser: does it only freeze during the installer, like if you just run and use the LiveCD for a while, will it freeze?
[04:21] <crdlb> sukki, tbh it would probably be easier to use gutsy than compile major parts of X from source
[04:21] <don-o> i did an upgrade from edgy to feisty. everything went okay until the reboot - it looks like the initramfs did not have ide drivers! i recovered by using an older kernel still in the grub menu. just an FYI
[04:21] <NewUser> not so far
[04:21] <CountX> sonny: what are you exactly trying to manage in that club?
[04:21] <Jabapyth> cdm10: ya, but that just kills it.
[04:21] <crdlb> sukki, and I *think* feisty's xserver-xorg-video-intel should work
[04:21] <sukki> crdlb: gutsy isnt out yet though
[04:21] <xazo> jrib, im trying to use a VPN program. I imported a Cisco PFC file, attempt to connect. it fails. I wonder if security on Ubuntu is blocking this VPN connection. Any ideas?
[04:21] <NewUser> only when I try to install
[04:21] <Jabapyth> cdm10: I want to tell it to stop recording..
[04:21] <NewUser> so then i tried to install the 6.06.1 version
[04:21] <cdm10> Jabapyth: won't killing it do that?
[04:21] <sonny> CountX:  Mostly just the membership with mailing capabilities.
[04:22] <sukki> crdlb: feisty does have a version of it yes but like, its not recent
[04:22] <NewUser> but that wouldn't even boot
[04:22] <sukki> crdlb: not recent enough to have my card in it
[04:22] <crdlb> sukki, neither are the drivers you're trying to install from git :)
[04:22] <Jabapyth> cdm10: im not sure whether it needs to close/finish anything...although ill try that.
[04:22] <sukki> crdlb: seriously? i thought they had them in it
[04:22] <crdlb> sukki, no I mean those drivers aren't released either :)
[04:22] <CountX> sonny: hmm, cant help ya
[04:22] <aztracker1> sukki, you're having trouble with X3100 (intel?) with feisty?
[04:22] <jrib> xazo: by default, ubuntu ships with no iptables rules so no ports are blocked
[04:23] <sonny> CountX:  I use a MS DB now but just thought I might find a better way.
[04:23] <sukki> aztracker1: yes i am
[04:23] <aztracker1> sukki, hmm... I was able to run the live cd on my x3100 based mb without issue..
[04:23] <sukki> aztracker1: for example desktop effects freeze my computer. WoW on wine crashes before the load screen
[04:23] <aztracker1> well, issues with the fakeraid I had..
[04:23] <sonny> CountX:  Would just as soon get away from MS.
[04:23] <sukki> aztracker1: it works but its not like... full support
[04:23] <aztracker1> gotcha..
[04:24] <aztracker1> so, basically, when using opengl it crashes/lockes
[04:24] <sukki> yeah
[04:24] <sukki> or d3d
[04:24] <dutch_> btw, if anyone wants to just give me some quick info, whats the best method for basic virtualization nowadays on Ubuntu. is it QEMU/KQEMU, or user-mode linux, or anything else?
[04:24] <CoasterMaster> dutch_ I use qemu
[04:24] <aztracker1> may be best running the gutsy preview/alpha.
[04:24] <sukki> dutch_: virtualbox, xen, vmware
[04:24] <sukki> dutch_: i use virtualbox
[04:24] <ninjabooty> ok, just booted fiesty for the first time ... what are the odds that this is going to word with my friend's wal-mart belkin USB wireless that she just bought?
[04:25] <dutch_> CoasterMaster: has KQEMU been freed yet, or is it still proprietary?
[04:25] <crdlb> sukki, you just need to realize that if you do this, no one will be able to support you :)
[04:25] <aztracker1> dutch_, I'm partial to vmware player/server
[04:25] <CoasterMaster> dutch_: I have no idea, sorry
[04:25] <dutch_> sukki: isnt virtualbox proprietary?
[04:25] <crdlb> whereas with gutsy, you at least get #ubuntu+1
[04:25] <b14ck> what command will show me how much ram i have?
[04:25] <sukki> dutch_: sort of. you can check the licensce yourself, but its free for personal use
[04:25] <dutch_> thanks for all the reponses on virtualization. anyone have any experience with user-mode linux? maybe comments?
[04:25] <ahmed> how can i install breyl?
[04:25] <dutch_> sukki: i see. thanks for the info
[04:26] <sonny> Ninja:  100%
[04:26] <dane2> does anyone else have a problem with Feisty starting up? like weird colored lines and stuff?
[04:26] <sukki> crdlb: well im going to install gutsy when it releases in october anyways but until then id like to get the gfx to work
[04:26] <|thunder> Hey all, is it possible to make a specific window appear ABOVE the gnome panels ?
[04:26] <b14ck> what command will show me how much ram i have?
[04:26] <mneptok> b14ck: free -m
[04:26] <ninjabooty> sweet deal
[04:26] <ninjabooty> I'm on it then
[04:26] <aztracker1> dutch_, wish I could help with that.. I haven't really worked with it.. I usually have windows and linux vms, so vmware is best for me.
[04:26] <b14ck> ty
[04:26] <sukki> crdlb: automake is already installed too and its not fixing the aclocal problem
[04:27] <xazo> jrib.  I get a connection failed (timeout) error when trying to connect to work using KVpnc. I imported my Cisco PFC file.
[04:27] <dutch_> aztracker1: yeah, thats understandable. unfortunately i dont use any non-free software though, so...yeah.
[04:27] <Flatfender> How can I check to see if XGL is installed properly?
[04:27] <usser> Flatfender: theres only one way to find out, take the blue pill ))
[04:27] <aztracker1> dutch_, understandable... if it weren't for work, and my love for asp.net, I would be all free software.
[04:27] <jrib> xazo: I don't know about that
[04:27] <sycho_> I have a new problem i have never seen before. I just did a fresh install of XP and ubuntu. I just got done loading grub. my error is that now I can boot into ubuntu with no problem however when I try to boot into XP it just loads the grub menu again. It dosn't throw any errors. any ideas what Ithe problem is?
[04:27] <ahmed> how install beryl on ubuntu
[04:27] <DeadLock> hi all. Whats the terminal line to see all the harddrives i have an where they are mounted.
[04:28] <aztracker1> mod-mono is getting close though.
[04:28] <dutch_> well, i understand work, but yuck, you like asp.net? ;-)
[04:28] <nickrud> !beryl | ahmed
[04:28] <ubotu> ahmed: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[04:28] <sonny> List free memory:  free
[04:28] <aztracker1> dutch_, asp.net rules.. (yes, I've used RoR too.. just like asp.net better)
[04:28] <|thunder> Im am starting to think that it is impossible to make a window appear above the gnome-panels
[04:28] <ubuntu_> the ist and 2nd time i installed ubuntu it says i didnt create a swap file. the problem is that i did create a swap file. does this mean ubuntu doesnt utilize swap if necessary?
[04:29] <usser> DeadLock: try mount, it shows all the active mounts, not all harddrives though
[04:29] <NewUser> can anyone help me install Ubuntu to begin with, it freezes on me
[04:29] <drada> I need help configuring WMP54GS on Edubuntu fresh install, please...
[04:29] <dutch_> aztracker1: perchance, have you tried django?
[04:29] <nickrud> |thunder: no; but you can make the panels minimize
[04:29] <cafuego> asp.net is good only compared to asp (without .net)
[04:29] <aztracker1> dutch_, nope.. is that the python one?
[04:29] <dutch_> aztracker1: its a fun one, definitely at least worth a looksie. yeah its python.
[04:29] <|thunder> nickrud; thanks, i saw the auto-hide. but thats a gay option. Why do they always have to be on top ?
[04:29] <s> hello
[04:30] <aztracker1> cafuego, I like it the best, second would probably be cfm, third php, fourth jsp/tomcat
[04:30] <nickrud> |thunder: so you can see them? ;)
[04:30] <aztracker1> dutch_, python always seemed so alien to me.
[04:30] <cafuego> aztracker1: It's an abomination, is all I can say. truly awful.
[04:30] <dutch_> aztracker1: ooooo, its hands down the most natural, easy-to-use language i've ever encountered in my life
[04:30] <|thunder> nickrud; i want XP to run in win4lin, but be above the panels. still visable on other desktops
[04:30] <shinichizio> Can I ask how to intentionally downgrade a program here?
[04:30] <aztracker1> dutch_, lol.. I like c-style languages myself.
[04:31] <NewUser> can anyone help me
[04:31] <dutch_> cafuego: im gonna have to agree with you on this one. especially since it's non-free
[04:31] <ubuntu_> the ist and 2nd time i installed ubuntu it says i didnt create a swap partition.  the problem is that i did create a swap partition. does this mean ubuntu doesnt utilize my swap if necessary?
[04:31] <dutch_> aztracker1: i hate to break it to you, but python ic c-style :)
[04:31] <xazo> anyone here use KVpnc while importing a Cisco *.pcf file?????
[04:31] <aztracker1> dutch_, mod-mono is free.. ;)
[04:31] <dutch_> aztracker1: s/ic/is/
[04:31] <aztracker1> dutch_, again, always seemed alien to me.
[04:31] <sukki> is there any way of upgrading to gibbon via terminal or is burning the isos and doing an 'upgrade' the best way to do that
[04:32] <unagi> !info virtualbox
[04:32] <ubotu> Package virtualbox does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:32] <sukki> also can i upgrade from beta to full
[04:32] <unagi> !virtualbox
[04:32] <ubotu> VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox
[04:32] <nickrud> |thunder: try running xp in vmware-server you can make it truly full screen. But getting above the panels; maybe using brightside or devilspie. Those are the only two things I can think of offhand that might allow that
[04:32] <ubuntu_> the ist and 2nd time i installed ubuntu it says i didnt create a swap partition.  the problem is that i did create a swap partition. does this mean ubuntu doesnt utilize my swap if necessary?
[04:32] <mojo_> is there anyway to install Ubuntu on USB Flash drive? (a proper way - not the lame way of copying from live-cd)
[04:32] <kelsa|martalli> ubuntu_:
[04:33] <kelsa|martalli> ubuntu_:  I think you still have to tell the installer to use the swap partition as a swap
[04:33] <dutch_> mojo_: not that i know of, but you might try damn-small-linux
[04:33] <|thunder> nickrud; thank you for the reply. ill have a look] 
[04:33] <bzaks> Can anyone tell me which is more reliable: the CD Self check or an md5sum of the cd?
[04:33] <bzaks> one failed and one didn't
[04:33] <bulmer> mojo_: there are tutorials for to do such
[04:33] <mojo_> bulmer: pls lead
[04:34] <bulmer> mojo_ hang on..let me google
[04:34] <ubuntu_> kelsa - i had no option to tell it
[04:34] <dane2> ubuntu always gave me option to just intall to my flashdrive if I had them in, have you tried the non-live cd?
[04:34] <sukki> whats the reccommended way to upgrade to gibbon?
[04:34] <sukki> cds?
[04:34] <nickrud> bzaks: if the install goes well, you'll have a datapoint ;)
[04:34] <bzaks> hahahaha, yeah
[04:34] <bzaks> that's the problem
[04:34] <nickrud> sukki: ask on #ubuntu+1 , they'll know better
[04:34] <bzaks> getting the install to work in the first place
[04:34] <bzaks> thanks Nickrud
[04:34] <ubuntu_> is there a way to find out if my swap is seen by ubuntu?
[04:35] <nickrud> bzaks: well, that's a datapoint also ;P
[04:35] <Paddy_EIRE> ubuntu_, type df in a terminal
[04:35] <dane2> anyone know if there are Smartlink drivers that support the 2.6.20 kernel or whatever is in 7.04?
[04:35] <bulmer> mojo_: okay..found some .. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=515
[04:36] <ubuntu_> df? whats that do
[04:36] <bzaks> yeah, except this computer has me left in a haze of sillyness... I can't get ANYTHING to install on it
[04:36] <mojo_> bulmer: let me chk
[04:36] <bzaks> man it up! :)
[04:36] <kelsa|martalli> If I am doing an upgrade by apt-get, is there a way to know that a restart s necessary?  In the GUI, it will put the little round arrows up, but on doing an office-wide update through ssh, I guess I would like to know when its time with a siople command or flag on the apt-get
[04:36] <mojo_> bulmer: eh? wallpaper?
[04:37] <nickrud> ubuntu_: cat /proc/swaps
[04:37] <NewUser> can anyjbody help me with installing??????
[04:37] <Rev> anyone farmiliar with Explore2fs

[04:37] <Rev> like, it sees a drive
[04:37] <Pelo> bzaks, yes  I am
[04:37] <Rev> but i don't think it's MY drive
[04:37] <ubuntu_> nickrud - shows no data
[04:38] <NewUser> it freezes on me in the 7 install steps
[04:38] <Rev> can't even see my home folder
[04:38] <nickrud> ubuntu_: then no swap
[04:38] <Pelo> Rev,  please don'T use the enter key for punctuation
[04:38] <ubuntu_> nickrud- can i fix that?
[04:38] <nickrud> Rev: what do you see?
[04:38] <Rev> sorry
[04:38] <bzaks> Pelo: okay, I have the alternative version downloaded burned and ready to start
[04:38] <nickrud> ubuntu_: did you make a swap drive?
[04:38] <Pelo> NewUser, which step is that ? I haven't seen the installer in about 4 monts
[04:38] <goalieca> anyone use pop gmail?
[04:38] <Rev> my drive > usr > then a bunch of other stuff
[04:38] <ubuntu_> i did but it said i didnt. but i did
[04:38] <Pelo> bzaks,  have fun
[04:38] <Rev> lost and found and usr are the only two folders in the root
[04:38] <bzaks> first off: is there a way to disable DMA? I know that my mobo freaks out giving SQUASHFS errors if it's own (learned from trying to install gentoo)
[04:39] <Pelo> goalieca, I do ?
[04:39] <Sevk> When i tuned xinetd service off on my server, the ssh connecting time become very quick .
[04:39] <NewUser> it is different steps different times
[04:39] <Pelo> bzaks,I can'T answer that
[04:39] <nickrud> Rev: that looks like you have a usr partition; are there any other partitions available to view?
[04:39] <NewUser> I have tried it multiple times and it never works, but stops at different times
[04:39] <bzaks> It's okay, I'm just really tired of failing
[04:40] <bzaks> I can't get ANYTHING to install on this server
[04:40] <nickrud> ubuntu_: put the output of     sudo fdisk -l      and the contents of  /etc/fstab on a pastebin
[04:40] <bzaks> it doesn't matter which HD
[04:40] <bzaks> or anything
[04:40] <Sevk> The SSH connecting time become very quick .
[04:40] <bzaks> it just doesn't work
[04:40] <Pelo> NewUser, step 7 should always be the same step,  you mean it starts theinstall and then just freezes while installing ?
[04:40] <bulmer> bzaks: grub has option for nodma
[04:40] <Rev> nickrud, nope, but actually, i have 2 programs, neither of which were working but i put what i needed into a strange folder that i can now see i can access so

[04:40] <bzaks> bulmer: thanks, but I'm just trying to install
[04:40] <nickrud> Rev: cool
[04:41] <goalieca> pelo: okay.. gmail pop'd pretty much just allows you to read mail.. but not really tag,modify, coordinate folders like draft etc. right?
[04:41] <Pelo> ubuntu_,  donT' paste in the channel
[04:41] <NewUser> no, I never get tot the actual install, it stops during one of the 7 steps prior to that
[04:41] <nickrud> ubuntu_: you have no swap
[04:41] <bulmer> bzaks: you can interrupt that..and on console1 i believe you can then insert that
[04:41] <bzaks> This is the i386 version
[04:41] <xirv> hi all

[04:41] <pawan1> hi
[04:41] <Pelo> goalieca, as far as I know , it just works as a pop when you use it with a local client,  what you do on your own computer won'T change what 's on the gmail site
[04:41] <nickrud> ubuntu_: no, that's a linux partition, not a swap.
[04:41] <pawan1> hi
[04:41] <xirv> im just starting out with linux
[04:42] <randy026> hi
[04:42] <xirv> its great so far!!

[04:42] <Rev> i just tried to copy the file with 'diskinternals linux reader' and it said, 'read error, cannot find drive requested, access is denied, file save error'

[04:42] <NickPresta> Rev, yes?
[04:43] <cast> bzaks: and how did gentoo fail?
[04:43] <Pelo> NewUser,  I'm gonna suggest you get the alternate install cd, it's got a text based installer,  it 's a bit easier on the computer resources, so it should insall stragiht through
[04:43] <usser> kornerr: u talking about XGL maybe?

[04:44] <cast> or bootstrap the OS with a cd, depends how you want to do things
[04:44] <kornerr> Because Ubuntu has problems with workspaces without it
[04:44] <pawan1> torrent client for ubuntu
[04:44] <randy026> xirv, do you have the proper drivers installed for 3d acceleration?
[04:44] <bzaks> I believe I can install it, it's just that Knoppix is it
[04:44] <usser> xirv: try Enemy Territory, OpenArena, Americas army
[04:44] <kornerr> That can set number of workspaces in Beryl, i guess
[04:44] <bzaks> it's the only live CD I've had ANY luck with
[04:44] <xirv> randy
[04:44] <bzaks> not the Gentoo Live CD or DVD
[04:44] <randy026> Yes Enemy Territory!
[04:44] <nickrud> it might be, but you're gonna have to split off some for a swap
[04:44] <pawan1> azureus
[04:44] <Pelo> pawan1,  deluge torrent, get it from their site,  or utorrent running on wine ( still the best regardless of wine)
[04:44] <usser> xirv: cube is pretty good too
[04:44] <kornerr> omg, ppl
[04:44] <bzaks> not the Ubuntu Live CD or DVD
[04:44] <xirv> ubuntu is asking for something called ati restricted drivers
[04:44] <ubuntu_> nickrud - in /etc/fstab it says hda2 is swap
[04:44] <xirv> should i install that?
[04:44] <randy026> You want though yes.
[04:45] <Jack_Sparrow> xirv: There is a recent update of sauerbraten
[04:45] <goalieca> pelo: i'm not needing help.. i'm just wondering about the technology in general
[04:45] <xirv> ok
[04:45] <usser> xirv: yea u may want to install it if u have ati video card
[04:45] <xirv> yea
[04:45] <nickrud> Rev: I'm having a hard time visualizing what you're seeing ....
[04:45] <randy026> I think I dont have a ATI card but you want that
[04:45] <xirv> i have a radeon x1950pro

[04:51] <Pelo> kornerr,  if you are using oneof the beryl compiz thingys they take over the workspace stuff, you need to set the number of workpacd trhough the effects manager , wichever it is,  becaue of the cube thing

[04:52] <simplechat> very usefull
[04:52] <Pelo> don_pucci, the logs are in /var/log   I might suggest you check in  admin > services disable all theones you donT' use
[04:52] <randy026> dane2, no I am.. but that's what happen when you use vista thinking it will be soo cool to have a accelerated desktop and then you see Vista
[04:52] <mnereson> nickrud: ty
[04:52] <arghh2D2> xirv: i lost the book mark, sorry.  try to google: open source games ubuntu

[04:53] <simplechat> one question: can you put two different virtual desktops on different moniters?
[04:53] <Pelo> winbond,  for the mouse I themes I guess you just dragdrop the package theme manager
[04:53] <simplechat> like if i have two moniters, one can have each desktop?
[04:53] <CountX> hey, while trying to install ubuntu on my laptop and its freezing at "loading kernel modules..."

[05:11] <CountX> MasterShrek: what reason would there be for it not working?
[05:11] <MasterShrek> im not too sure rancidlm try in #alsa, youll probably get a solution much quicker

[05:12] <MasterShrek> im not too sure CountX, what version of ubuntu are u using?
[05:12] <arrrghhh> at least i would think it would be the same linux-headers-`uname -r`
[05:12] <doctormo_> http://meglyman.deviantart.com/art/Edgy-Eft-64270266
[05:12] <spucky> MasterShrek: you seem to be very intelligent about Ubuntu which is why I keep bugging you. My external drive is formatted with ReiserFS so I can't try it under Windows. The drive turns off when I unplug the USB cable and turns back on when I plug it in.
[05:13] <arrrghhh> what else would i need to install?
[05:13] <CountX> MasterShrek: the latest

[05:13] <doctormo_> http://meglyman.deviantart.com/art/Feisty-Fawn-64270350
[05:13] <MasterShrek> spucky, you might need to load a kernel driver for reiserfs, its possible that it would load it on boot if the drive was plugged in, and possible not load it while the system is running

[05:16] <arrrghhh> so... does anyone have any ideas as to why it says i don't have libc installed and linux-headers-`uname -r` is installed?
[05:16] <stdin> doctormo_: ok you can spam someone elses work in #ubuntu-offtopic if you want, but not here
[05:16] <MasterShrek> arrrghhh, try sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:16] <arrrghhh> oh!
[05:16] <MasterShrek> arrrghhh, it will install quite a few things, but its worth it
[05:17] <arrrghhh> good point... it doesn't list that
[05:17] <MasterShrek> its a metapackage
[05:17] <arrrghhh> as a thing to install.. i'll try that thanks!  yes i remember that package now... i bet it's not installed
[05:17] <rancidlm> MasterShrek: do u know of a way to wipe my sound settings from /etc/
[05:17] <doctormo_> stdin: I have a problem with my computer, it keeps on telling me off for posting links
[05:17] <stdin> doctormo_: try turning it off then
[05:17] <Rev> haha nickrud
[05:17] <usser> hahaha
[05:17] <Rev> ubuntu won't even load now
[05:17] <doctormo_> stdin: good idea
[05:18] <Rev> says it's some kind of kernal error, in read mode only
[05:18] <usser> hahaha
[05:18] <Rev> wtf's that
[05:18] <arrrghhh> MasterShrek: thanks again, i bet that's it... that needs to be added to the nvidia install process!
[05:18] <File13> can you get video drivers up and working on a PPC mac?
[05:18] <MasterShrek> not really rancidlm
[05:19] <MasterShrek> arrrghhh, not really, most distros come with compilers and such standard
[05:19] <nickrud> Rev: what whas it?
[05:19] <Rev> what was it?
[05:19] <arrrghhh> well the nvidia-glx-new package didn't work...
[05:19] <CountX> MasterShrek: noapic nolapic acpi=off, that added to the boot options fixed it
[05:19] <MasterShrek> arrrghhh, i wouldnt know about that package, i used nvidias driver from their site
[05:20] <nickrud> Rev: ah, found the rest of what you said.
[05:20] <Rev> said 'disk in read mode only', then tried to load a rescue shell, or something to that effect, then it can't, and then it tells me that apt-get is not installed, and to install it with apt-get install apt
[05:20] <arrrghhh> MasterShrek: i'm using nvidia's driver from their site...
[05:20] <CountX> MasterShrek: the audio is all glitchy though....any reason for that?
[05:20] <Rev> which i can't do
[05:20] <MasterShrek> CountX, yea i guess i didnt think of that, never had to use it, but ive heard it will work somtimes
[05:20] <arrrghhh> at any rate, i'm gonna go try this!
[05:20] <MasterShrek> no idea on the audio CountX, choppy audio during the livecd you mean?
[05:21] <CountX> yes
[05:21] <CountX> very choppy and sloooow
[05:21] <MasterShrek> it will prolly work fine after the install
[05:21] <Pie-rate> why is totem so damn retarded when it comes to buffering video properly before playing it?
[05:21] <MasterShrek> CountX, you have to remember the entire os that you are entering is loading from a cd, much slower than a hard drive
[05:21] <CountX> i hope...could it be that because its a laptop that it should be so slow
[05:21] <Pie-rate> every single time i find an embedded video, i HAVE to copy the location and download it.
[05:21] <MasterShrek> Pie-rate, totem sucks, use xine or mplayer
[05:21] <nickrud> Rev: no, I've seen others with that error, but don't know how to fix
[05:22] <Pie-rate> MasterShrek: how do i switch to xine?
[05:22] <CountX> MasterShrek: its still loading the setup dialog....
[05:22] <CountX> o.O
[05:22] <arpenker> hello.world.
[05:22] <Pie-rate> MasterShrek: does installing totem-xine or whatever make it use xine to play videos?
[05:22] <arpenker> where have any people.
[05:22] <MasterShrek> i dunno Pie-rate, i just dont use totem at all, straight xine
[05:22] <Pie-rate> MasterShrek: oh
[05:23] <Pie-rate> MasterShrek: it'd be nice if they fixed totem
[05:23] <MasterShrek> are u talking embedded videos in firefox Pie-rate ?
[05:23] <arpenker> I am the ubuntu new user.please help me.
[05:23] <Pie-rate> MasterShrek: yes.
[05:23] <MasterShrek> !ask | arpenker
[05:23] <ubotu> arpenker: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:23] <arpenker> why I can't hear the sound?
[05:23] <MasterShrek> Pie-rate, i think theres a mplayer plugin for firefox, should work pretty good
[05:23] <WaltzingAlong> mozilla-mplayer
[05:23] <MasterShrek> ugh i hate sound cards
[05:23] <IgorSobreira> hey guys...where can i find the gutsy unstable live cd for download?
[05:23] <IgorSobreira> is possible?
[05:24] <MasterShrek> IgorSobreira, http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/tribe3
[05:24] <WaltzingAlong> a friend's computer keeps getting disconnected from the network (ethernet). which sorts of things are available to determine the cause?
[05:24] <arghh2D2> Question- If i'm setting up an SSH sever, should i be using sudo, or no?
[05:25] <MasterShrek> IgorSobreira, http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/tribe5
[05:25] <IgorSobreira> thanks
[05:25] <arghh2D2> Question- If i'm setting up an SSH sever, should i be using sudo, for things such as ssh-keygen or no?
[05:25] <MasterShrek> arghh2D2, you shouldnt have to set it up really, just install the program from apt
[05:25] <WaltzingAlong> arghh2D2: well yes, sudo aptitude install openssh-server
[05:26] <kishan> !ssh >> arghh2D2
[05:26] <arghh2D2> MasterShrek: so when i go home and my mom needs this computer looked at, i dont need anything, just log into this IP with the client?
[05:27] <usser> arghh2D2: depends if your moms comps is behind router or not?
[05:27] <MasterShrek> should be arghh2D2 assuming the firewall / router allow it
[05:27] <usser> arghh2D2: if it is forwarding 22 port should do it
[05:27] <Extravert> hello
[05:28] <MasterShrek> hello Extravert
[05:28] <arghh2D2> Ok, so whats all this stuff about public and private keys good for?
[05:29] <arghh2D2> is there an SSH server somewhere i could log into for practice?
[05:29] <WaltzingAlong> arghh2D2: your own! :D
[05:29] <usser> arghh2D2: well ssh has a couple of options to encrypt stuff public private keys are usually stronger than just plain password
[05:29] <WaltzingAlong> arghh2D2: ssh localhost
[05:29] <usser> arghh2D2: u can login to my machine
[05:30] <Extravert> how would I use Open Offices to put custom footers for each page?
[05:30] <WaltzingAlong> Extravert: in writer?
[05:30] <usser> arghh2D2: lemme just create a user for u )
[05:30] <arghh2D2> usser,cool
[05:30] <Extravert> WaltzingAlong: yes
[05:31] <WaltzingAlong> Extravert: insert menu , header/footer
[05:31] <UglyRoot> What can I use to play MIDI? I downloaded Kmid and Amorak --- and they do not work
[05:31] <UglyRoot> no sound
[05:32] <Extravert> WaltzingAlong: that doesnt allow you to make custom footers for EACH page.
[05:33] <WaltzingAlong> Extravert: you want different content in footers on each page?
[05:33] <WaltzingAlong> Extravert: easy stuff like page numbers?
[05:33] <usser> arghh2D2: aa what the hell just do ssh arg@whom.homeunix.org
[05:33] <hacim> i've got a madwifi ath0 wifi card, and it keeps going out. I try unloading the modules and reloading them, but it doesn't come back unless I reboot
[05:33] <Extravert> WaltzingAlong: well I need page numbers but it has to start from the second page
[05:34] <usser> how to send a private message??
[05:34] <WaltzingAlong> usser:  /msg user message
[05:34] <usser> WaltzingAlong: thnx
[05:34] <Extravert> WaltzingAlong: I could just make another document for the first page.
[05:34] <WaltzingAlong> Extravert: well then you may need to set the first page to be the title page. by the way, for any documents of length i would suggest learning LaTeX
[05:34] <arghh2D2> ok usser, now what?
[05:34] <usser> arghh2D2: asks for password?
[05:34] <arghh2D2> yep
[05:35] <usser> arghh2D2: right well being unable to send u priv msg here u go 1234567 is the pass
[05:35] <usser> ))
[05:36] <UglyRoot> How do I play MIDIs? Kmid and Amorak dont work
[05:36] <UglyRoot> no sound
[05:36] <ancor> aloooo
[05:36] <stdin> !midi
[05:36] <ubotu> Trouble playing MIDI files? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MidiSoftwareSynthesisHowTo
[05:36] <WaltzingAlong> UglyRoot: ask twice more for the answer ;)
[05:36] <WaltzingAlong> doh stdin beat me to it
[05:37] <arghh2D2> usser i tried to pm you
[05:37] <Lisa_manieZ> gfdjbfgh
[05:37] <usser> arghh2D2: yea u cant )
[05:38] <usr13> Where is the log for updates.  (Screen resolution seems to be stuck at 640x480 and I have no clue why.)
[05:38] <Flatfende1> When using KDE how do I adjust my monitor refresh rate
[05:38] <CaptLloyd> I am sure I'm the 300000th person to ask this, but any idea when Tribe-6 will be available?
[05:38] <Ryuho> anyone know if comondo anti-virus / anti-malware program is good?
[05:38] <Palintheus> !gutsy | CaptLloyd
[05:38] <Ryuho> crap uhh sorry wrong window
[05:38] <ubotu> CaptLloyd: 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
[05:39] <usser> arghh2D2: well i see u logged in
[05:39] <ancor> ljkuktyjvchtytikuykg
[05:39] <CaptLloyd> Thanks
[05:39] <ancor> ??????????????????????
[05:39] <arghh2D2> ok, so from my house to my mums house i would type: ssh username@ip.add.re.ss?
[05:39] <usser> arghh2D2: yea
[05:39] <usr13> I tried using System -> Preferences ->Screen Resolution  but was no other option besides 640x480
[05:39] <arghh2D2> sweet, thats freeakin simple
[05:40] <usser> arghh2D2: why yes it is )))
[05:40] <arghh2D2> thanks usser
[05:40] <WaltzingAlong> arghh2D2: correct. you may also look into setting up openvpn or even dynamic dns at the other so then you can use ssh -CX username@nameyouset.org
[05:40] <arrrghhh> ok... so now i can install the nvidia drivers but they break X every time now!
[05:40] <Flatfende1> Anyone?
[05:40] <Frogzoo> anyone suggest how to get fglrx to use a different irq? setting "fglrx irq=7" in /etc/modules doesn't work..
[05:40] <WaltzingAlong> Flatfende1: xorg.conf i think
[05:41] <ancor> aloooo
[05:41] <jetscreamer> irq?
[05:41] <jetscreamer> why would fglrx use an irq
[05:41] <Flatfende1> Ok, so I can't change it directly from KDE like I could in Gnome
[05:41] <arghh2D2> WaltzingAlong: cool, i'll look into that...what about logging into an X session through ssh, is it possible?
[05:42] <usr13> Video card is Nvidia
[05:42] <arrrghhh> arghh2D2: you can tunnel vnc thru ssh
[05:42] <usr13> [GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x
[05:42] <arrrghhh> and there's a thread on logging into the X session remotely...
[05:43] <usr13> So where is the log for updates?
[05:43] <jetscreamer> use the nvidia driver in restricted modules usr13
[05:43] <arrrghhh> usr13: probably in /var/logs/ somewhere
[05:43] <jetscreamer> !nvidia
[05:43] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:43] <arghh2D2> cool, some new acronymns to learn about, apreciate it
[05:43] <cheebz88> anyone know if wireless is a pain in the ass with ubuntu as it is with arch?
[05:43] <WaltzingAlong> arrrghhh: yes; may also look into nomachine's NX tech or freenx; ssh -CX user@host will enable compression and tunnel X. so then once connected to host you could start konqueror or whatnot, but it will get tunneled to the machine from which you connected to the user@host
[05:44] <arrrghhh> ja
[05:44] <WaltzingAlong> cheebz88: do not know how it is in arch but has been great for me with a few different cards thus far with dapper->feisty
[05:45] <cheebz88> WaltzingAlong: hmm, i have an airlink card
[05:45] <UglyRoot> TiMidity ++ is for KDE. it still doesnt play a MIDI :(
[05:45] <arrrghhh> but that wasn't my question... and i've been thru every nvidia driver install... and the one that worked before was the manual install by downloading that .run file and stopping X and installing from the command line... worked great before, now it breaks X even when i do a nvidia-xconfig.
[05:46] <Rev> arrrghhh, the official one didn't work?
[05:46] <Rev> oh, you know what worked for me?
[05:46] <arrrghhh> that's the one i'm describing... breaks X every time i try to implement it
[05:46] <WaltzingAlong> cheebz88: have experience with the ipw2100 and the bcm43xx, not the airlink sorry
[05:46] <Rev> hmm, how did i do it...the official one didn't work with me either
[05:47] <Rev> it was like, something in the system tabs, 'unsigned drivers' or something
[05:47] <Rev> did you try it?
[05:47] <Flatfende1> Changing my xorg.conf didn't seem to help my refresh rate problem, anyone else know how I can change it within KDE on Ubuntu?
[05:47] <jetscreamer> arrrghhh: http://linux.hfds.com/files/n-i.txt ... messy, but works. grep -i paravirt /boot/config-`uname -r` first.. y is bad.
[05:47] <arrrghhh> yes, restricted drivers - but that didn't let me setup my 2nd monitor
[05:47] <idiot> i'm having some troubles using openal for sound...its giving me slightly poppy playback.  someone suggested rtprio...can someone point me in the right direction of what to do or where to look?  running edgy 6.10
[05:47] <Rev> oh
[05:47] <Moniker42> hey, i'm wondering if there is some kind of switch to plug and unplug a firewire cable? does such a device exist?
[05:47] <Rev> sorry
[05:48] <WaltzingAlong> Flatfende1: kmenu / system settings / monitor and display / refresh
[05:48] <Moniker42> i mean... i know this isn't really an ubuntu specific thing, but it's bugging me ;)
[05:48] <cheebz88> WaltzingAlong: well, when i first installed ubuntu it wasn't working for a peenchinpepper but is there any way that maybe downloading some type of patch or drivers or something for it would help?
[05:48] <tego> now i setup ubuntu on xp but the grb boot cannot see xp ptw i setup xp on :d partion not on c:
[05:48] <jetscreamer> arrrghhh: see also http://linux.hfds.com/files/xorg.conf.debian
[05:48] <WaltzingAlong> cheebz88: i would think so. have you searched the ubuntu help wiki using the details of the card as the query?
[05:49] <cheebz88> WaltzingAlong: no, but i'll give it a shot.  thanks for your help man
[05:49] <arrrghhh> the nv driver works... but it was my understanding that when i ran the 'official' nvidia installer it would switch the driver to 'nvidia'
[05:49] <WaltzingAlong> cheebz88: cheers
[05:49] <xtv-ca> hi, I'm newbie and I need a recomendation: should I install the root partition with ext2 or ext3 type?
[05:49] <WaltzingAlong> Flatfende1: care to share what you hope to do by changing the refresh?
[05:49] <stdin> xtv-ca: ext3
[05:49] <WaltzingAlong> xtv-ca: ext3
[05:49] <arrrghhh> xtv-ca: ext3...
[05:49] <xtv-ca> thanks XD
[05:50] <tego> now i setup ubuntu on xp but the grb boot cannot see xp ptw i setup xp on :d partion not on c:
[05:50] <winbond> how can i open a file as root from within the explorer
[05:51] <WaltzingAlong> winbond: eek! :D
[05:51] <Flatfende1> waltzingAlong, this sounds stupid, but when I try that path it tries to send me to a website
[05:51] <winbond> WaltzingAlong: what does that mean?
[05:52] <arrrghhh> winbond: why do you want to do that... just run whatever command in the terminal
[05:52] <ckin2001> winbond, right click, open with other application, custom command, gksudo "command to edit with"
[05:52] <WaltzingAlong> winbond: i was frightened ;)
[05:52] <Flatfende1> WaltzingAlong, I plan on changing it to a different refresh rate because a monitor I want to use wont work because of the refresh rate that is set
[05:53] <WaltzingAlong> Flatfende1: how far did you get? to the menu? to system settings? to monitors and displays?
[05:53] <WaltzingAlong> Flatfende1: are you switching monitors while X is running?
[05:53] <Textbook> uh.. this might be a stupid question, but I keep reading about Applications > System Settings ... I don't have that, lol
[05:53] <WaltzingAlong> Textbook: ;) there is a link for that off of the kmenu in KDE
[05:53] <Textbook> not using KDE, using Gnome
[05:53] <WaltzingAlong> Textbook: nods
[05:54] <WaltzingAlong> Flatfende1: you could also try in #kubuntu
[05:54] <winbond> ckin2001: wow, isnt there anything better
[05:54] <TwinX> !dkn dkn
[05:54] <ckin2001> winbond, terminal
[05:54] <Flatfende1> I'll try in kubuntu, I got it in Gnome, but cant find the directory in KDE thanks
[05:55] <winbond> ckin2001: lol, i said better
[05:55] <yagami> does anyone know how to enable 3D acceleration ( I am looking at beryl here ) on chrome9 integrated graphics?
[05:55] <yagami> usually found on via MOBOs
[05:56] <WaltzingAlong> Flatfende1: i was not telling you of a directory, but a path of icons to click in KDE
[05:56] <yagami> i already have the xorg-driver (I think) and am using it- but when I enable desktop effects. all it gives me is a white screen.
[05:59] <usser> yagami: better buy some cheap nvidia card 5200 would do just fine
[05:59] <threat> hey, I would like chinese fonts to display correctly in terminal instead of diamonds with question marks in it
[05:59] <threat> what would the chinese local package be callec?
[06:00] <ganes1> how to register to join #python
[06:00] <BHSPitMonkey> Hey all.
[06:00] <usser> whats up
[06:00] <yagami> usser, all in good time- hoping to grab 'em 8600/8700 geforce babies...err...rather monsters.
[06:00] <threat> and do I need to switch to that locale in order for the chinese symbols to diplays correctly?
[06:00] <usser> Pelo:  go to sleep P)
[06:00] <yagami> but for now, i'll have to make do, i suppose :(
[06:00] <usser> err :P
[06:01] <BHSPitMonkey> So I have a machine here running Ubuntu, and it freezes (kernel-level) ALL the time.  The only reproduction step for the crashes is "try to use the computer at all for a bit".  Where do I begin tracking down the problem?
[06:01] <ckin2001> ganes1 - try /msg nickserv for instructions
[06:01] <usser> yagami: was saving money for that one too
[06:01] <ganes1> usser:how to register to join #python?
[06:01] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, can we have some details on the machine ?
[06:01] <ganes1> ckin2001:thaks
[06:01] <Pelo> ganes1, /nickserv help
[06:02] <yagami> usser, already have it then?
[06:02] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, it's a Dell Optiplex GX150
[06:02] <BHSPitMonkey> Restricted nVidia driver
[06:02] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, do you expecct me to know the specs of all the dell computers ?  cpu men video hdd , etc
[06:02] <zerocoll23> hi
[06:02] <cheebz88> BHSPitMonkey: you have to have a network connection to install the driver
[06:03] <usser> yagami: nah never got enough i spend it all on beer
[06:03] <Pelo> hello zerocoll23
[06:03] <BHSPitMonkey> cheebz88, what are you getting at?
[06:03] <yagami> lol, good choice.
[06:03] <zerocoll23> hello pelo
[06:03] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey,  he wasn't paying attention , carry on
[06:03] <cheebz88> :] 
[06:04] <zerocoll23> no hablo ingles
[06:04] <usser> yagami: i should pbbly cause the card i use now ati9800, well lets say all the fans just fell off of it cause of heat )))
[06:04] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, is it possible your computer freezes when you are viewing flash video in ff ?
[06:04] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, most of those specs you just asked for probably won't be relevant in a solution.  However, a quick Google yields: http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/opgx150/en/ug/specs.htm
[06:05] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, the freezes can occur at any time.  For instance, you log into GNOME and open a menu, or browse firefox normally, etc.
[06:05] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey,  ...
[06:06] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey,  what is the cpu of your computer,  how much memory do you have , how big is your hdd ?
[06:06] <BHSPitMonkey> It's never a specific action that triggers the crashes, so I'm having a really hard time beginning to track down the issue.
[06:06] <WaltzingAlong> BHSPitMonkey: bad ram?
[06:06] <BHSPitMonkey> HDD is 300GB, the processor info is shown on that last link I sent over
[06:06] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey,  is this a laptop ?  could suspend just engage ramdomly ?
[06:06] <BHSPitMonkey> WaltzingAlong, that's my suspicion, though memtest86+ yielded no errors
[06:06] <zerocoll23> alguien que hable espaol
[06:06] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, it's a desktop.
[06:07] <WaltzingAlong> BHSPitMonkey: ah so far so good then. do you have one 300gb ext2 partition ? :D
[06:07] <kkathman> !es | zerocoll23
[06:07] <ubotu> zerocoll23: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[06:07] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, if you can't be bothered to jsut type the info I ask for , I won'T bother either,  thanks
[06:07] <BHSPitMonkey> WaltzingAlong, I don't recall, but if you really want to know I can df it and copy over the results.
[06:08] <WaltzingAlong> BHSPitMonkey: pelo asked for some data too; ok pastebin the mount results
[06:08] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, that's quite all right;  most sociable people would prefer no assistance at all over hostile assistance.
[06:08] <BHSPitMonkey> Just a sec, WaltzingAlong;
[06:09] <Count1> anyone here install ubuntu on a laptop recently?
[06:09] <tonyyarusso> Count1: that's a pretty vague question
[06:09] <WaltzingAlong> Count1: yes
[06:09] <Pelo> Count1,  it's always better to ask specific question,  greater chance of getting help
[06:09] <Count1> tonyyarusso: well im installing 7.04 on an hp dv9000z and i wa wondering if any one could help
[06:10] <Count1> /ns ghost CountX fsaimage
[06:10] <BHSPitMonkey> WaltzingAlong, there is one primary partition, then an extremely large extended partition containing a small logical / and a very big /home
[06:10] <tonyyarusso> Count1: Why not tell us the problem you're having?
[06:10] <Count1> tonyyarusso: as of now, sound issues, and wireless wont work
[06:11] <Count1> i think i need help with getting codecs to work
[06:11] <WaltzingAlong> BHSPitMonkey: using ext2? reiserfs? ext3?
[06:11] <ganes1> Pelo:how to establish dail up internet connection in ubuntu?
[06:11] <wolfson1> any idea why Nautilus throttles the CPU when I try to open a terminal?
[06:11] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, one last thing-  for your benefit here, and anywhere else on IRC, you might want to have a look at the ubotu's "pastebin" factoid, and why such sites are popularly preferred to pasting large blocks of text in a busy channel.
[06:11] <Pelo> ganes1, you can enter info in menu > sysem > admin > network
[06:12] <BHSPitMonkey> WaltzingAlong, I think it might be reiser.  One sec.
[06:12] <Pelo> !dailup | ganes1  but this might also help
[06:12] <Count1> bcm43xx, yet i cannot get it to work
[06:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dailup - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:12] <WaltzingAlong> Count1: i have bcm43xx working
[06:12] <wolfson1> Count1: I do too
[06:12] <BHSPitMonkey> WaltzingAlong, only the really large /home partition is reiserfs.
[06:12] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, I beg your pardon ?
[06:12] <Count1> can you help me?
[06:13] <WaltzingAlong> BHSPitMonkey: well that seems fine
[06:13] <WaltzingAlong> Count1: sure
[06:13] <Count1> WaltzingAlong: thanks bro
[06:13] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, you asked for a full set of specifications, I provided a link to such.  It's common practice on IRC, since it would have been rude of me to paste it all in-channel.
[06:14] <wolfson1> Count1: do you know specifically which broadcom card it is?
[06:14] <jbinder> For some reason Virtualbox is showing the start menu bar in windows
[06:14] <WaltzingAlong> BHSPitMonkey: i too would have preferred you just provide the 3 details than to browse the data on the link
[06:14] <jbinder> Isn't it not supposed to show the start menu?
[06:14] <jbinder> In seamless mode?
[06:14] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey,  I asked for basics about your system,   mine is a celeron 2.4 , with 1gig ram, 2 80gig hdd,  onboard everthing intelchipset  , that doesn't take a page
[06:15] <WaltzingAlong> Count1: which device is it according to lspci ?
[06:15] <MrAndrews> Can anyone tell me of a good site to look up obitchuaries?
[06:15] <BHSPitMonkey> WaltzingAlong, no "browsing" was required, aside from the obvious act of clicking the link.  If the page was dense with other information, I would not have used it.
[06:16] <Pelo> MrAndrews, you mean obituaries ?
[06:16] <WaltzingAlong> BHSPitMonkey: i clicked the link, the browser loaded. i was looking for cpu, hdd, ram, but there was a lot of other data there too
[06:16] <jbinder> Obituaries
[06:16] <dika_doank> ltsp edubuntu 7.04 nfsmount : need a path
[06:17] <dika_doank> ?
[06:17] <Arkanvs> hi
[06:17] <thegreenblob> hello
[06:17] <Pelo> dika_doank,  come again ?
[06:17] <Pelo> hello thegreenblob
[06:18] <dika_doank> ltsp edubuntu 7.04 nfsmount : need a path ?
[06:18] <Pelo> dika_doank, I'm sorry I don'T know what that means,  can you tell me where / when you are getting this ?
[06:18] <arrrghhh> ok... so restricted drivers and official (manual) install just break X... and i can't use nvidia-settings without setting this up...
[06:19] <Pelo> arrrghhh,  if the restricted drivers fail you move to the binaries
[06:19] <Pelo> !nvidia | arrrghhh
[06:19] <ubotu> arrrghhh: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:19] <OrTigaS> hi! how to add grub to external hard drive?
[06:19] <arrrghhh> yea... i've been through ALL of that
[06:19] <dika_doank> my client ltsp up and i see that
[06:19] <Pelo> OrTigaS, set the external hdd as your boot drive in the bios whenyou install ubuntu on it
[06:20] <OrTigaS> but there's "error 22"  :)
[06:20] <Pelo> arrrghhh, and did you do the bit where you go in xorg.conf and change nv for nvidia ?
[06:20] <BHSPitMonkey> I apologize for any inconsideration displayed on my own part.  At the time, I just responded to a request(?) for "the specs of all the dell computers ?  cpu men video hdd , etc"
[06:20] <OrTigaS> thats why i ask how to add grub :)
[06:20] <arrrghhh> Pelo: yes, and X works but nvidia-settings doesn't...
[06:21] <cheebz88> i can't play any media in my firefox web browser, is there some sort of plug-in i have to install?
[06:21] <chanakya> Does ubuntu install properiatery drivers by default , i am having a intel motherbard and beryl is working without any extra hassle , It`s using any properiatery driver or not ?
[06:21] <BHSPitMonkey> Past etiquette aside, I could really use any light shed on the issue.  Troubleshooting these crashes is a wild goose chase.
[06:21] <Pelo> OrTigaS, this is what error 22 is  22 : No such partition
[06:21] <Pelo>     This error is returned if a partition is requested in the device part of a device- or full file name which isn't on the selected disk.
[06:21] <arrrghhh> cheebz88: there's a ton... depends on the media you're trying to play.  i find mplayer plugin or kaffine is best
[06:22] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, I still need the info I asked for , and not a link to a spec page
[06:22] <OrTigaS> Pelo:  ok tnx
[06:22] <arrrghhh> cheebz88: and of course there's flash and java etc...
[06:22] <Gnea> cheebz88: try this in a terminal: apt-cache search mozilla media
[06:22] <Pelo> OrTigaS,  is ubuntu installed on the external hdd ?
[06:23] <freetos> when trying to play a file in audacity it gives me an error, saying " error while opening sound device.  Please check the output device settings and the project sampling rate"  any suggestions
[06:23] <Gnea> cheebz88: and apt-cache search mozilla plugin
[06:23] <JohnFlench> Does anyone know how to integrate Ubuntu with tablet pc notebook or can direct me to some documentation?
[06:23] <Pelo> freetos,  find the prefs in audacity and make sure the sound device is set to alsa
[06:23] <freetos> Pelo: it is
[06:23] <chanakya> Does ubuntu install properiatery drivers by default , i am having a intel motherbard and beryl is working without any extra hassle , It`s using any properiatery driver or not ?
[06:23] <Pelo> JohnFlench, I'd give the forum a search on this and I'd also try and look up your model here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[06:23] <OrTigaS> Pelo:  it was intalled on that hd when it is in internal pc, i just pulled it out and put it in external casing(usb)
[06:24] <cheebz88> arrrghhh: thank you, i am installing :] 
[06:24] <arrrghhh> cheebz88: np
[06:24] <JohnFlench> thanks Pelo
[06:24] <Pelo> freetos, that's all I have, maybe try some of the other devices available and see if they work better
[06:24] <KenjehXD> Is there a list of working wireless cards for Feisty?
[06:24] <Pelo> freetos,  tehre is also a #audacity where you might try asking
[06:24] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, there's an Intel P3 933MHz, with 512MB RAM (aftermarket), 300GB hard disk (aftermarket) and an nVidia Geforce4 (PCI, may or may not be aftermarket)
[06:24] <arrrghhh> chanakya: does it really matter that much?  i don't think it does by default, but if you told it to then yea...
[06:25] <freetos> Pelo: thanks
[06:25] <freetos> Pelo: enjoy, this is a song me and a friend did
[06:25] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, which version of ubuntu did you install ?
[06:25] <Pelo> freetos,  I don't allow dcc or private msg,  thanks for the thought but no thanks
[06:25] <cheebz88> arrghhh: after install, do i need to restart my computer or just firefox?
[06:25] <arrrghhh> Pelo: when i changed the nv to nvidia, X loads but nvidia-settings doesn't give me the settings panel i'm used to seeing...
[06:25] <chanakya> arrrghhh: Yep, it matters i don`t want any properiatery stuff in my machine
[06:26] <arrrghhh> cheebz88: should be just firefox...
[06:26] <Pelo> arrrghhh, but you do get a pannel ?
[06:26] <arrrghhh> chanakya: then don't install any
[06:26] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, 7.04 was installed fresh, but the UbuntuStudio repo/metapackage was installed over it.
[06:26] <arrrghhh> Pelo: yea... but it's not a panel where i can change any settings with my monitors
[06:27] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey,  I assume you did try reinstalling ?
[06:27] <BHSPitMonkey> 2.6.20-16 generic is the kernel being run, by the way.
[06:27] <Pelo> arrrghhh, that maybe all you get with that videocard
[06:27] <DoctorMO> I have a problem with a new dell machine and it's funky nvidia card; basiclly the owner reinstalled ubuntu and it seems it requires a very new version of the nvidia driver
[06:27] <BHSPitMonkey> ^ That really is a troublesome nick to have to address  :P
[06:28] <DoctorMO> So I downloaded the run, deinstalled all the things I was supposed to and installed it
[06:28] <arrrghhh> Pelo: ... i had this workin on xubuntu 7.04 just the other day!  i switched to mint to see what it was like, i couldn't get the video card configured right and now when i switch back to xubuntu same issue!
[06:28] <shifty-> is tehre a package for that awn app thats like the mac os x bar/
[06:28] <Pelo> arrrghhh, I'm stumped
[06:28] <arrrghhh> i've had this working before... the steps i took last time and different result... it breaks X...
[06:29] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, anything special on your computer ? any app you configured from source ? anything not out of the box ?
[06:29] <arrrghhh> durn it!
[06:29] <DoctorMO> the problem is that it won't load: API mismatch, driver version doesn't match the kernel driver
[06:29] <CountX> why would totem freeze when trying to play an mp3?
[06:29] <nickrud> arrrghhh: probably you're missing one little thing you did last time ...
[06:29] <DoctorMO> which is really wrong since I uninstalled all the nvidia-glx stuff
[06:29] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, I believe the condition existed before the latest fresh install, I'd have to ask the owner.  I was hoping to possibly pinpoint the problem at hand, though I'm not sure if we can get any log info from the crash times.
[06:30] <GNine> at least you dont have to deal with ATI
[06:30] <meffie> http://digg.com/linux_unix/Bradley_Kuhn_and_Max_Spevak_to_speak_at_Ohio_Linux_Fest
[06:30] <Pelo> shifty-,  you have to google for it ,  there is a page with 3rd party repos
[06:30] <meffie> please digg
[06:30] <chanakya> arrrghhh: I am not installing anything from repo, It`s a default ubuntu base installation
[06:30] <shifty-> Pelo: its called awn, right?
[06:30] <Pelo> shifty-, avant windows navigator
[06:30] <Pelo> window
[06:30] <shifty-> Pelo: thanks
[06:30] <arrrghhh> it's possible all the stuff i tried to install messed up the default install... ugh
[06:31] <DoctorMO> GNine: that is a comfort to me right now
[06:31] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, all that comes to mind is an autopackage, which isn't running during the crashes anyway.  We -have- installed VirtualBox, which brings along its own kernel module, but I have the same version installed on my own machine with no problems.
[06:31] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, cogigating but not coming up with much
[06:31] <kkathman> ./msg sPin  ahh ok lets see now :)
[06:31] <nickrud> chanakya: if you don't have ubuntu-restricted modules installed, you're not using a proprietary driver
[06:31] <kkathman> what>
[06:31] <kkathman> hmm
[06:31] <kkathman> weird ??
[06:31] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, if the RAM were the culprit, would memtest86+ have revealed it?
[06:31] <GNine> glx is not so bad to mess with .. unless you want to tinker with compiz.. but thats offtopic
[06:31] <GNine> :-P
[06:32] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, vb does sound like a possible culprit,  do you always have it running when he comp crashes ?
[06:33] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, no.   As mentioned earlier (I think, maybe I said it in a different #), it's crashed just after login, after opening the applications menu.
[06:33] <dika_doank> i am using edubuntu 7.04 with ltsp 5
[06:33] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey,  ram problems aren't just damage ram , could just be that you use up all the memory,  512 meg with a virtual machine running ontop of the host os is not a lot
[06:33] <dika_doank> when my client booting 1st time it's successfull. that was yesterday
[06:34] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, is it hot where you are ? could a overheating protection in the bios shut down the comp ?
[06:34] <dika_doank> but now, it shown nfsmount : need a path. anyone help pls
[06:34] <GNine> i would call synaptic.. check the history of installed/uninstalled stuff.. and kind of do a manual undo of anything recent that might have caused any current issues
[06:34] <Pelo> dika_doank, when do you get this message ?
[06:35] <dika_doank> when i start my client
[06:35] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, like I said, nothing running or dragging the system down, although virtualbox's kernel module does load at startup.  My worry about the RAM is a possible mismatch, which I have yet to investigate into.
[06:35] <Pelo> dika_doank, check into the overheating thing
[06:35] <CountX> whenever i try and play any audio or video with any player, the application freezes
[06:35] <bbman> is anyone on here who can help me/
[06:35] <Pelo> dika_doank,  do you have a nfs partition on your comp ?
[06:35] <dika_doank> overheating thing ?
[06:35] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, I'm not sure about overheating, though it's not shutting down;  it's locking up.
[06:35] <BHSPitMonkey> dika_doank, he meant me.
[06:36] <Pelo> dika_doank, the overheating thing was not meant for you
[06:36] <CountX> can anyone help?
[06:36] <bbman> I am having a problem where I had to switch computers and now the ethernet in the new system isn't being seen by the new system?
[06:36] <bbman> it is the same hard drive but new computer
[06:36] <dika_doank> pel ?
[06:36] <dika_doank> pelo ?
[06:36] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, he said your name instead of mine.  Chill.
[06:36] <bullgard4> Is there a ordinary name for the 'sysfs' identifier?
[06:37] <bbman> It went from an intel based dell to a home built nvidia based motherboard with an nvidia ethernet and a marvell ethernet board
[06:37] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, on my mobo , I have settings to slow down the comp when it overheats not shut it down,  if the settings are to low ... , I jsut guessing here, I realy don'T have enough to go on, sorry
[06:37] <Pelo> dika_doank,  do you have a nfs partition on your comp ?
[06:37] <teKnofreak> bbman, is your ethernet card detected ?
[06:37] <bbman> ubuntu doesn't have kudzu what can I use to get it to detect it
[06:37] <dika_doank> no
[06:37] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, to describe the crashes, first the entire screen becomes "unclickable", and then after a short grace period, the cursor also becomes static.
[06:37] <bbman> should I use lspci to find out if it is?
[06:38] <bbman> I can tell that one of the ethernet ports is live from the lights but that is all
[06:38] <teKnofreak> bbman, yes
[06:38] <winbond> when i hover the mouse over a menu item i get a popup with the same name, how can i get rid of it?
[06:38] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, hmmm
[06:38] <Pelo> dika_doank,   realy don'T know
[06:38] <teKnofreak> bbman, do `sudo mii-tool` and check if the link is fine
[06:38] <CountX> any audio, any video i try and play, freezes any application i try and play it with
[06:39] <bbman> it sees both ethernet controllers via lspci
[06:39] <Gaaston> Hello
[06:39] <CountX> any help!??
[06:39] <teKnofreak> CountX, how much RAM do you have ?
[06:39] <GNine> try different software.. one will work
[06:39] <CountX> teKnofreak: 2gb
[06:39] <bbman> it says no mII interfaces found
[06:39] <bbman> it says that SIG******* failed on eth1
[06:40] <bbman> I looked at dmesg and it didn't say that it was probing anything
[06:40] <suupaabaka> Does anyone here use Enlightenment with Ubuntu?
[06:40] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, what you discribe sound to me like a system low on resources, ram and cpu ,  ( usualy because something heavy is running ), off the top of my head  but since it seems to be video related, you might want to give the binary drivers a try
[06:40] <bbman> I am using Ubuntu 6.0.6 server
[06:40] <teKnofreak> suupaabaka, e17 ?
[06:41] <Pelo> bbman,  is anyone currently helping you ?
[06:41] <mosno> suupaabaka: probably just the elitists :)
[06:41] <suupaabaka> teKnofreak: e16, was more what I'm looking for, but e17 might have the same problem.
[06:41] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, sorry, what binary drivers?
[06:41] <suupaabaka> haha yeah :P
[06:41] <bbman> I think teknofreak is
[06:41] <Pelo> !nvidia | BHSPitMonkey
[06:41] <ubotu> BHSPitMonkey: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:41] <teKnofreak> Pelo, if you can please
[06:41] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, I AM using the nvidia driver.
[06:41] <suupaabaka> basically, I get huge icons on some menus, making those menus unusable
[06:42] <Pelo> teKnofreak, I dno't think I can ,  bbman was not using anyones nick and I thought he was talkning to the air ,
[06:42] <bbman> I just need to know how to get my system to reprobe for needed modules to make my new ethernet controllers work on the system
[06:42] <BHSPitMonkey> suupaabaka, but really readable! :D
[06:42] <CountX> teKnofreak: any help?
[06:42] <teKnofreak> Pelo, he he ok.
[06:42] <teKnofreak> CountX, are you playing from CD/DVD ?
[06:42] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey,  not the restriced drivers from the admin menu ,  I meant the binaries, the ones that are a pain to install
[06:43] <suupaabaka> BHSPitMonkey: That's an extremely optimistic way of looking at it, yes :P
[06:43] <MrAndrews> Anybody know of something other than gstreamer to make my soundcard louder?
[06:43] <CountX> teKnofreak: no, ive tried all sorts of places
[06:43] <shifty-> where do i get the packages xcomposite, and xdamage
[06:43] <bbman> does anyone know how to do this?
[06:43] <hackel> I tried to add wicd to STOP_SERVICES in /etc/default/acpi-support but it seems to have no effect when I resume from standby.  Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?;
[06:43] <MrAndrews> !gstreamer
[06:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gstreamer - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:43] <bbman> I saw discover is the new kudzu to a point but isn't doing anything for me
[06:43] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, ah.  What leads you to "seems to be video related"?
[06:43] <Pelo> MrAndrews, in the terminal  type alsamixer make sure every slider is up
[06:43] <CountX> teKnofreak: different codecs, all sorts of separate files, with 3 separate players, all resulting in the application freezing just before playing
[06:43] <shifty-> !xdamage
[06:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xdamage - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:44] <MrAndrews> I got alsa up already
[06:44] <MrAndrews> I need something else
[06:44] <teKnofreak> CountX, check xsession-errors
[06:44] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, the screens freezes and then so does the mouse
[06:44] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, also, maybe I could investigate into a way of logging my resource usages.
[06:44] <bbman> Pelo or teknofreak???
[06:44] <Pelo> bbman,  I cannot help you
[06:44] <teKnofreak> bbman, might me your network card is not detected, might be drivers
[06:45] <MrAndrews> Pelo: Can I use antyhing besides alsa?
[06:45] <suupaabaka> hmm, i can't even find any solution to this on the forums... that's a first!
[06:45] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, I figure that's just due to the driver-accelerated cursor, though.  And I don't understand why a video-related issue would bring it down so hard- you can't even switch tty's, or use NUMLOCK.
[06:45] <CountX> teKnofreak: where
[06:45] <winbond> when i hover the mouse over a menu item i get a popup with the same name, how can i get rid of it?
[06:46] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, there are some pannel apps tha you could use to diplay your cpu and mem usage, also some gdeskets for the same purpose,  and something called grlkll ( can never remember that one, I'll hve to look it up)
[06:46] <GNine> fix xserver
[06:46] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, if the video shares the memory of the mobo .... possibly
[06:47] <bbman> well lspci knows both ethernet devices but I don't know how to get the modules to be set up to load so it will work
[06:47] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, gkrellm is the other applet to display resources I was thinking of
[06:47] <winbond> Pelo: gkrellm or something like that
[06:49] <winbond> and its my good day
[06:49] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, silly qustion here but do you have a /swap on your comp ?
[06:49] <arghh2D2> Does anyone know why my virtual terminals (ctrl alt F2 - F6) come up with huge fonts that arent even completely on the screen and how to fix it?
[06:50] <maestrojed> I just set my Ubuntu desktop (feisty) to be a LAMP server.  By default /var/www belongs to root which means I can't work in it via the gui.  Is there any reason I should not change the ownership and group to my account (I am only running one main account)
[06:50] <winbond> when i hover the mouse over a menu item i get a popup with the same name, how can i get rid of it?
[06:51] <Pelo> winbond, probably you an turn it off in gconf-editor  do a search for tooltip
[06:51] <winbond> anyone know of an app that can copy xbox360 games (for linux)
[06:51] <GNine> same name or description of it
[06:51] <GNine> bleep
[06:51] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, yup
[06:51] <arghh2D2> Does anyone know why my virtual terminals (ctrl alt F2 - F6) come up with huge fonts that arent even completely on the screen and how to fix it?
[06:52] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, ok that's pretty much all I have,   you can also try doing a search in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[06:52] <GNine> xbox360 security is nice . no hacks for that yet
[06:53] <GNine> bleep
[06:53] <taime1> whats the easiest way to install a broadcom wireless card?
[06:53] <Pelo> taime1,  do a search for the model in the forum
[06:54] <GNine> yay, forum
[06:54] <GNine> tasty
[06:54] <taime1> well, ubuntu thinks its a dell 1390, so im not sure what the model is
[06:55] <Pelo> taime1, check the documentation ?
[06:55] <arghh2D2> The fonts and/or screen size is way to big and bleeding off the edge of my monitor on my virtual terminals.  Anyone know how to fix that?
[06:55] <GNine> xserver
[06:55] <Pelo> arghh2D2, check the forum , for terminal resolution
[06:55] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, I've switched it to the nv driver, and we'll be doing our damnest to make it freeze.  No luck so far, but we have lucky streaks on the thing anyway.
[06:56] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey,  best of luck
[06:56] <Pelo> dewbie,  I'm not that skinny
[06:56] <GNine> i was about to throw my puter down the cliff and then ubuntu happened.
[06:56] <BHSPitMonkey> Maybe you're big-boned.
[06:56] <BHSPitMonkey> Like, extrusively so.
[06:57] <Pelo> GNine, the expression is " out the windows tm"
[06:57] <BHSPitMonkey> GNine, you'd make a good testimonial generator for Canonical's web team.
[06:57] <Pelo> BHSPitMonkey, that made very litle sense
[06:57] <GNine> well.. whatever floats your boat.. i prefer to throw things down the cliff
[06:57] <BHSPitMonkey> Pelo, which?
[06:57] <Pelo> extrusively so
[06:58] <BHSPitMonkey> Ah.  So your ribs are so large as to extrude from your torso.
[06:58] <shifty-> where can i get the package xdamage and xcomposite
[06:58] <Pelo> ic
[06:58] <shifty-> im trying to compile avant-window-manager and it says those arent found
[06:58] <Pelo> shifty-, did you check in synaptic ?
[06:58] <BHSPitMonkey> Rather than the converse, anorexic approach.
[06:58] <CountX> is anyone here willing to help me, i cant play mp3's and when i do get video to play its glitchy and doesnt have sound...
[06:58] <Kagar> Can I reinstall ubuntu via terminal?
[06:58] <GNine> there is a level of security involved too.. someone might pick up that puter you just threw out the window
[06:58] <Kagar> revert everything back to default?
[06:59] <GNine> i dont think theyl go after the one down the cliff
[06:59] <Pelo> Kagar,  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:59] <Kagar> ah, danke, thought it was something like it.
[06:59] <Pelo> Kagar,  that will only reinstall the packages you removed that were part of the default install
[06:59] <CountX> Pelo: you seem helpful, can you help me?
[07:00] <Pelo> CountX,  what is your issue ?
[07:00] <gogeta> pretty cool
[07:00] <gogeta> my windows partation now runs nativy and under vmware
[07:00] <Kagar> Pelo : but not return my settings back to default?
[07:00] <CountX> Pelo: messed up sound, and cant play video
[07:00] <shifty-> thanks Pelo
[07:00] <CountX> Pelo: video acts funky
[07:00] <Kagar> Pelo : say my soundcard and wifi / video settings
[07:00] <Pelo> Kagar,  what do you mean by settings ?
[07:00] <Kagar> Well, just wondering if there was an easier way than fresh install.
[07:00] <gogeta> kagar?
[07:01] <Kagar> Yes?
[07:01] <CountX> Pelo: i will brb
[07:01] <gogeta> thers always a way whats the issue
[07:01] <Pelo> Kagar, for the video  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:01] <GNine> i like linux cuz there are NO standard solutions to anything
[07:01] <GNine> :-P
[07:01] <shifty-> Pelo: does ubuntu-desktop just reinstall all the gnome desktop stuff, and not set it back to default settings?
[07:01] <Pelo> shifty-,  just reinstall the default install packages
[07:01] <teKnofreak> shifty-, it does install all gnome desktop stuffs
[07:01] <Kagar> gogeta : Well, I've just played with too many settings to remember what I did. So, just wondering if I could go back to fresh install settings without having to reinstall everything.
[07:02] <Pelo> shifty-,  the settings are stored in the /home folder in hidden folder for each app
[07:02] <shifty-> ok
[07:02] <shifty-> cause i isntalled kubuntu-desktop and i dont like the kubuntu boot screen haha
[07:02] <gogeta> kagar well if you rember yout defult settings
[07:02] <teKnofreak> Kagar, from next time take a back up before editing
[07:02] <GNine> lol
[07:02] <teKnofreak> ;)
[07:02] <Kagar> aye.
[07:02] <gogeta> shifty just change it
[07:03] <gogeta> or rewmove splash from the boot loader
[07:03] <psiko_> anyone knows how config nxserver??
[07:03] <shifty-> gogeta: how?
[07:03] <Pelo> shifty-, go in synaptic search for splash and remove the kubuntu ones
[07:03] <mike6546> how do you see how much room is left on your linux partition?
[07:03] <shifty-> ok
[07:03] <bulmer> mike6546: df -h
[07:03] <gogeta> it will boot old school text then
[07:03] <Pelo> mike6546, menu > system > admin> system monitor , last tab
[07:03] <gogeta> then go to x
[07:03] <GNine> check your synaptic history .. might refresh your memory as to what have you done to your poor system
[07:04] <teKnofreak> shifty-, http://technofreakatchennai.wordpress.com/2006/12/22/switching-between-ubuntukubuntuxubuntu-uspalsh/
[07:04] <shifty-> teKnofreak: thanks
[07:04] <mike6546> is there anyway to shrink an ntfs partition and increase my ext3 partition size in linux?
[07:04] <abyan> yuni_gemini
[07:04] <gogeta> yes mike
[07:05] <shifty-> teKnofreak: hah i did the same as you, tried out kde and liked hnome better
[07:05] <Pelo> when count x comes back tell him to go in synaptic,  search for gstreamer and install all the gstreamer 10 packages he sees
[07:05] <Pelo> I'm out, g'night
[07:05] <teKnofreak> shifty-, nope i like kde better :P
[07:05] <arghh2D2> Is there a way to change resolution for virtual terminals without affecting my GUI resolution?
[07:05] <mike6546> gogeta: how?
[07:05] <gogeta> you can use the gpartationd live disk or the ubuntu installer just go to the partation setup and manule
[07:05] <shifty-> teKnofreak: doh'
[07:05] <gogeta> those changes are set instantly
[07:05] <psiko_> how config nxserver??
[07:05] <gogeta> after your done there you whont need to install anything
[07:06] <gogeta> sence your just resizing
[07:06] <teKnofreak> shifty-, am not for "gnome vs kde" both have their pros and cons, intelligent people use both
[07:06] <mike6546> alright and this won't lose any of my files?
[07:06] <ant-> it might
[07:06] <yuni> yuni_gemini
[07:06] <gogeta> shouldent
[07:06] <shifty-> teKnofreak: thats true, something about gnome just catches my eye moreso
[07:06] <gogeta> but resizing is a pretty fun game of luck
[07:06] <gogeta> shit does happon sometimes
[07:06] <GNine> u better backup
[07:07] <mike6546> gogeta: would partition magic be a better bet?
[07:07] <arghh2D2> Does anybody know if  there's a way to change resolution for virtual terminals without affecting my GUI resolution?
[07:07] <mike6546> in windows
[07:07] <Kagar> meh, I'm going to reinstall ubuntu anyways, just wondering if there was a faster way, thanks to those who helped.
[07:07] <teKnofreak> shifty-, alt+space katapault is better than alt+f2 ;)
[07:07] <gogeta> it would if it supported ext3
[07:07] <gogeta> it doesent thow
[07:07] <mike6546> bah
[07:07] <arghh2D2> i guess i come with the tough questions
[07:08] <gogeta> using gparationd should work
[07:08] <teKnofreak> there is nothing tough, there is only less known
[07:08] <mike6546> k
[07:08] <gogeta> it woked for me
[07:08] <gogeta> but i was also installing
[07:08] <gogeta> i dont knoe how it will rect to the ext3 partation with data on it
[07:08] <mike6546> well i am trimming down my ntfs partition to it's minimum size and that scares me
[07:08] <mike6546> k
[07:09] <gogeta> best to leave some room on it
[07:09] <gogeta> windows hates that
[07:09] <GNine> ntfs and ext3 arent exactly friendly with each other
[07:09] <mike6546> lies
[07:09] <mike6546> i have to shrink my windows partition so i can install windows he he the irony
[07:09] <GNine> ext3 will kill ntfs eventually.. its just a matter of time   muahahaha
[07:10] <gogeta> dont get it
[07:10] <gogeta> shirnk it to install windows
[07:10] <mike6546> qemu
[07:10] <gogeta> you can use vmware and run your real windows install
[07:10] <mike6546> qemu = emulation of an os
[07:10] <mike6546> is it free?
[07:10] <gogeta> i do
[07:10] <sutabi> Anyone know why when I record from /dev/dsp I get a loud buzzing sounds, yet if I use "arecord -f dat -d 2800 screencast.wav" it records without it..
[07:10] <gogeta> vmware server and player are
[07:11] <mike6546> i'll check it out
[07:11] <gogeta> lemmie grab the guide
[07:11] <mike6546> thanks
[07:11] <gogeta> its easy
[07:11] <gogeta> you make another hardware profire in windows
[07:11] <gogeta> and use that to install the vmware drivers
[07:12] <mike6546> !vmware
[07:12] <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
[07:12] <gogeta> http://www.venturecake.com/a-simple-guide-to-using-your-existing-windows-install-apps-in-ubuntu/
[07:12] <mike6546> thanks dude
[07:12] <gogeta> easy and it works
[07:12] <gogeta> makes it so you can run windows both nativly and under vmware
[07:12] <mike6546> do you think it would be fine to use visual studio to compile crap using vmware?
[07:12] <CountX> anyone know how to get ubuntu to tell me the battery level on my laptop?
[07:13] <gogeta> yea
[07:13] <mike6546> k good
[07:13] <mike6546> thanks
[07:13] <gogeta> or you can just bot into windows
[07:13] <gogeta> boot
[07:13] <gogeta> only thing if you boot into vmware mode make shure to unmount it in linux
[07:13] <arghh2D2> Hello!  I need to adjust my screen resolution on VIRTUAL TERMINAL.  99% of all the documentation i've been sifting through deals with xorg.conf and i dont want to change that because that is fine but when i hit ctrl alt f() it shows huge fonts that bleed off the edges of the screen...help?

[07:14] <psiko_> how configure nxserver??
[07:14] <gogeta> beryl is now knoen andd compiz-fusion
[07:15] <gogeta> they remerged
[07:15] <kishan> !beryl
[07:15] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:15] <CountX> thegreenblob: it says im running on battery power, im not, and that its at 0%
[07:15] <RyuhoKudo> how hard would be it be to set up a wireless network with ubuntu
[07:15] <thegreenblob> CountX: Hmm... Not sure then.. Sorry.
[07:15] <RyuhoKudo> wired internet connection with a wireless card brodcasting
[07:15] <CountX> poo
[07:16] <CountX> can linux play h.264?
[07:16] <gogeta> yes
[07:16] <thegreenblob> yeah.
[07:16] <gogeta> and rather well
[07:16] <CountX> how
[07:16] <Irreducibilis> Can ubuntu play PC games?
[07:16] <CountX> i cant find any decoder on the repos
[07:17] <Irreducibilis> "Games for windows"
[07:17] <endlessurf> so i don't know if this is an ubuntu thing or router/modem set up but i seem to be limited to a 150kb/s even though when i go to a download speed checker it says 1500kb/s,  help any one....
[07:17] <slapfaceware> how do i instlal beryl in ubuntu
[07:17] <teKnofreak> RyuhoKudo, wireless network as in you want to access wireless ?
[07:17] <gogeta> threw cedega it can play some
[07:17] <teKnofreak> endlessurf, doesn't trust download speed checkers
[07:17] <thegreenblob> CountX, I installed the codecs using automatix.
[07:17] <gogeta> slap apt-get install beryl
[07:17] <CountX> automatrix?
[07:17] <arghh2D2> Hello!  I need to adjust my screen resolution on VIRTUAL TERMINAL.  99% of all the documentation i've been sifting through deals with xorg.conf and i dont want to change that because that is fine but when i hit ctrl alt f() it shows huge fonts that bleed off the edges of the screen...help?  Am I asking the impossible?  Am I even beeing seen here?
[07:17] <thegreenblob> CountX, http://www.getautomatix.com/
[07:18] <endlessurf> teknofreak the modem says about the same thing though.....
[07:18] <gogeta> its a auto installer app but some call it unsecure
[07:18] <elkbuntu> thegreenblob, using feisty?
[07:18] <kishan> slapfaceware, try compiz fusion
[07:18] <teKnofreak> thegreenblob, you now using Ubuntu 7.04 ?
[07:18] <thegreenblob> Yeah.
[07:18] <slapfaceware> kishan, why
[07:18] <RyuhoKudo> teKnofreak i want to set up a ad-hoc
[07:18] <RyuhoKudo> using ubuntu
[07:18] <RyuhoKudo> is that possible
[07:18] <elkbuntu> thegreenblob, that was a dangerous waste then. you install codecs in feisty by trying to run the related media file
[07:18] <teKnofreak> RyuhoKudo, you mean your  Ubuntu machine to be a gateway for the wireless network ?
[07:18] <elkbuntu> thegreenblob, it then searches for you and installs them like that
[07:18] <thegreenblob> Meh. It worked. :P
[07:18] <RyuhoKudo> yes Tech3030
[07:18] <RyuhoKudo> or.. teKnofreak
[07:19] <kishan> slapfaceware, its much more better than beryl...beryl community now develop under name compiz fusion
[07:19] <teKnofreak> thegreenblob, try playing your media file, codecs get downloaded and installed, media plays.. as simple as that
[07:19] <elkbuntu> thegreenblob, it's ruined alot of peoples computers. removed programs they wanted, overwritten configuration and made systems unbootable, so please dont recommend it
[07:19] <winbond> synaptic is just a front end to apt like adept , right?
[07:19] <arghh2D2> Hello!  I need to adjust my screen resolution on VIRTUAL TERMINAL.  99% of all the documentation i've been sifting through deals with xorg.conf and i dont want to change that because that is fine but when i hit ctrl alt f() it shows huge fonts that bleed off the edges of the screen...help?  Am I asking the impossible?  Am I even beeing seen here?  Seriously, would someone please just acknowledge that my question is being poste?
[07:19] <teKnofreak> winbond, righto
[07:20] <teKnofreak> winbond, synaptic --> apt --> dpkg
[07:20] <thegreenblob> >_<
[07:20] <slapfaceware> but they require opengl?
[07:20] <gogeta> yes
[07:20] <overclucker> arghh2D2, i see you
[07:20] <elkbuntu> arghh2D2, you're being seen, but i dont know how to fix that
[07:20] <winbond> teKnofreak: ty
[07:20] <gogeta> all 3d window managers use opengl
[07:20] <Irreducibilis> Can I boot ubuntu from a 2GB flash drive?
[07:21] <arghh2D2> Thank you overclucker and elkbuntu!
[07:21] <arghh2D2> ok then
[07:21] <cookie-102> hello
[07:21] <gogeta> irreducibils yes i think dapper
[07:21] <teKnofreak> Irreducibilis, does your bios support booting from USB ?
[07:21] <cookie-102> hello everybody
[07:21] <RyuhoKudo> ill ask again when it calms down a bit
[07:21] <gogeta> i used to say no but someone showed me otherwise
[07:21] <Irreducibilis> teKnofreak: Indeed it does
[07:21] <cookie-102> windows has an option extend windows on second  monitor, how do I do that on ubuntu
[07:22] <teKnofreak> Irreducibilis, then you can
[07:22] <arghh2D2> i guess i had enough for a night anyhow
[07:22] <cookie-102> hello
[07:22] <teKnofreak> !ask | cookie-102
[07:22] <ubotu> cookie-102: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:22] <gogeta> LOL
[07:22] <cookie-102> I did ask already
[07:22] <gogeta> dumb bot
[07:22] <teKnofreak> he he
[07:22] <Irreducibilis> Yes, but how do I go about putting it on the USB drive, such as the partitioning and stuff?
[07:22] <teKnofreak> cookie-102, i saw 3 hellos from you, proly i should have used !patience
[07:23] <teKnofreak> ;)
[07:23] <gogeta> pendrive linux has guides
[07:23] <cookie-102> well, nobody answered me
[07:23] <Irreducibilis> HELLO!!! HOW R JOO?!
[07:23] <Irreducibilis> :D
[07:23] <RyuhoKudo> lol
[07:23] <teKnofreak> Irreducibilis, google for "booting ubuntu from pendrive"
[07:23] <Irreducibilis> okay...
[07:23] <cookie-102> My question was, how can i extend my workspace on anothe monitor
[07:23] <teKnofreak> !patience | cookie-102
[07:23] <ubotu> cookie-102: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[07:23] <teKnofreak> now i did it :P
[07:23] <overclucker> Irreducibilis, http://www.linux-live.org/
[07:24] <gogeta> cookie thats a good one i knoe it can be done but i forgot the app name
[07:24] <Irreducibilis> hmm
[07:24] <cookie-102> gogeta: Thank You, for answering
[07:24] <aum> cookie-102: use your monitor driver settings prog to set up twinview, and drag your compositor window into the second monitor
[07:25] <gogeta> i knoe edting the xorg config can do multi displays or 1 big display
[07:25] <aum> cookie-102: for example, if using nvidia drivers, the prog is nvidia-settings
[07:25] <gogeta> there it is
[07:25] <aum> cookie-102: also, google for how to set up twinview
[07:25] <cookie-102> well, I am running ubuntu not windows
[07:25] <overclucker> Irreducibilis, though i would reccomend using a less feature rich distro for usb boot
[07:25] <gogeta> cookie nivida still has those settings in linux
[07:26] <cookie-102> ok, thx
[07:26] <nathan> is there a way to add a picture in the beginning of a video file in avidemux ?
[07:26] <bourne> hi... is there a problem to install /home into the same / partition? Do the transfer account wizard preserves all my information from my current /home installation?
[07:27] <gogeta> bourne if you just make a / partation .home will be there
[07:27] <gogeta> hats aruldy done
[07:27] <teKnofreak> bourne, you mean moving /home to existing / ?
[07:27] <bourne> i know but kinda if I have a well working system... and when 7.10 is released... will it preserve everything?
[07:28] <bourne> or will something break?
[07:28] <gogeta> well
[07:28] <gogeta> having only a / means if something brakes thats it
[07:28] <teKnofreak> nothing *should* break with 7.10 as nothing have since mty breezy days
[07:28] <teKnofreak> i have a / and /home within it
[07:29] <gogeta> that means you only have /
[07:29] <teKnofreak> bourne, ^^
[07:29] <teKnofreak> means i do not have a separate partition for /home
[07:29] <bourne> i see
[07:29] <skinnypuppy1334> I'm running xp in a vmware server on ubuntu 7.04, works great. Can I install vm software on my other linux machines on the lan and run that same virtual machine from any of them? Sorry noob question.
[07:29] <bourne> but it's important, isnt' it?
[07:30] <CountX> ubuntu still wont tell me my correct battery charge level
[07:30] <scrimple> hello, how do you install gnome-ppp when you can't use your modem but have internet on another machine?] 
[07:30] <CountX> can anyone point me in the right direction
[07:30] <bullgard4> Is there an ordinary name for the 'sysfs' identifier?
[07:30] <teKnofreak> bourne, you can line without a separate /home provided you are not going to screw up things yourselves and do not want to share /home
[07:31] <bourne> oh i see
[07:31] <teKnofreak> scrimple, use the other machine as the gateway to internet
[07:31] <CountX> teKnofreak: hey man, i cant get ubuntu to read my battery level
[07:31] <CountX> it reads as 0%
[07:31] <Irreducibilis> What is the smallest linux distro ever?
[07:31] <Irreducibilis> Besides DSL
[07:31] <CountX> DSL
[07:31] <CountX> damn...
[07:31] <scrimple> how do i do that?
[07:31] <bourne> i still have to access a fat32 partition for data, between linux and windows... fat32 is ok for this?
[07:31] <teKnofreak> Irreducibilis, Damn Small Linux
[07:31] <bourne> or is the ntfs stable enough
[07:31] <faileas> Irreducibilis: build your own ;)
[07:31] <CountX> puppy linux
[07:32] <slapfaceware> compiz is window manager? or have to use it with kde gnome?
[07:32] <CountX> LFS is hard
[07:32] <overclucker> Irreducibilis, dsl is debian
[07:32] <overclucker> LFS rocks
[07:32] <CountX> but its hard
[07:32] <faileas> Irreducibilis: its more a question for #linux tho ;)
[07:32] <CountX> not noob friendly
[07:32] <ninjabooty> while I'm impressed with Fiest, I still could not get the wireless USB adapter to work
[07:32] <scrimple> was wondering if you could download the file and then install it on the other
[07:32] <overclucker> at first it is, yeah
[07:32] <teKnofreak> Irreducibilis, as other have started telling names.. if you want usb bootable linux try knoppix on usb :)
[07:33] <skinnypuppy1334> heard slax will do usb also
[07:33] <ninjabooty> http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=272959 <-act peculiar in Fiesty
[07:33] <overclucker> Irreducibilis, of slax (slackware based)
[07:33] <ninjabooty> I'm not experienced with wireless networking in nix
[07:33] <teKnofreak> scrimple, ya, then change your repos to the local machine.. have an apt-server running on the another machine
[07:33] <ninjabooty> but it was like, it had two wireless adapters: wlan0 and wmaster0
[07:34] <Irreducibilis> I already have DSL bootable from a 128MB usb drive
[07:34] <ninjabooty> I could see the wireless access point, but I couldn't use it
[07:34] <Irreducibilis> But if I bought a 2 gig, I was hoping to use Ubuntu
[07:34] <Irreducibilis> So, Ill try that....
[07:34] <scrimple> thanks but it sounds a bit complicated for me
[07:35] <cast> Irreducibilis: debian should run from usb fine enough me thinks
[07:35] <Irreducibilis> okay...
[07:36] <bourne> is NTFS drive writer stable enough
[07:36] <bourne> or should I just go with fat32 if i want to share a partition with winxp
[07:36] <Polygon89> bourne, ntfs-3g is stable, ive been using it for a while, been writing stuff to my ntfs drive and i have not noticed any problems
[07:37] <cast> Irreducibilis: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/179 fwiw
[07:37] <bourne> Polygon89: so it should be OK then, to share a NTFS partition...
[07:38] <Polygon89> bourne, yeah thats what i do. I just have my windows partition mounted and i can read/write to it fine
[07:38] <Polygon89> bourne, but just use it to share, dont actually install linux on it (i dont think you can lol)
[07:38] <gogeta> well
[07:38] <gogeta> using ntfs read wright all the time isnt good
[07:39] <hackel> How does sleep work in Ubuntu?  It seems like it's not running anything in /etc/acpi...
[07:39] <Kagar> It's not possible to move unallocated space in front or behind a partition is it?
[07:39] <daprie> I'm having problem getting my sound to work... any suggestions?
[07:39] <gogeta> daprie thats kinda vage
[07:39] <Kagar> I have a block of unallocated space in front of a partition, and I want it to move in front so I can combine it with another partition.
[07:40] <Kagar> Without having to have 4 partitions
[07:40] <gogeta> kager it will grab any unused space
[07:40] <daprie> ok... I have an Nvidia mobo with an onboard sound card
[07:40] <gogeta> if your resizing or making
[07:40] <bourne> which scheme partition is good, for a long term linux installation, with sharing windows for a while... (in the future I will remove windows..)
[07:40] <Kagar> ah, so I don't have to worry about gparted? I should let the step thing take place?
[07:40] <daprie> I've tried to do all that was recommended on the forum including rebuilding the alsa drivers, but nothing has helped
[07:40] <Polygon89> bourne, how big is your drive?
[07:40] <bourne> 40 GB
[07:41] <cast> bourne: use lvm, :),
[07:41] <Polygon89> bourne, how nice, the same size as mine lol
[07:41] <cast> long term without lvm may hurt a bit
[07:41] <bourne> LOL
[07:41] <Polygon89> bourne, so your gonna be sharing with windows on this as well?
[07:41] <bourne> i wished i had more, but then i dont use that space
[07:41] <Polygon89> bourne, including a installation of windows?
[07:41] <bourne> yes
[07:41] <Kagar> continuous ==  unallocated space?
[07:42] <bourne> i have to... because of my... fiancee
[07:42] <bourne> and foobar2000
[07:42] <overclucker> lol
[07:42] <bourne> lol
[07:42] <Polygon89> bourne, thats gonna be tricky... your not going to have much space for personal files lol
[07:42] <winbond>   cast what does lvm do?
[07:42] <ninjabooty> so I couldn't get the USB wireless adapter to work, any thoughts? I could see working for ubuntu just to find esoteric hardware junk that doesn't work well with it :D
[07:42] <cast> make the windows partition as small as you can get away with, then when you're tired of it make it an lvm pv and incorporate it in one of your volume groups  :)
[07:42] <Kagar> my HD is set up like Unallocated | windows | unallocated | swap
[07:42] <overclucker> bourne, once you settle the deal windows is of?
[07:42] <nathan> is there a way to add a picture in the beginning of a video file in avidemux ?
[07:42] <Kagar> will it grab all the unallocated if I choose the use largest continuious?
[07:42] <Kagar> or just the biggest unallocated
[07:43] <Polygon89> bourne, i would recommend for a long term linux/windows installation, 10 gb for each OS
[07:43] <bourne> i thought this:
[07:43] <Polygon89> how much ram do you have
[07:43] <overclucker> linux | swap | storage | winblows
[07:43] <gogeta> kagar yes it should
[07:43] <daprie> anyone?
[07:44] <bourne> [ swap 1GB ]  - [ ext3  10GB ]  - [ ntfs  4GB ]  - [ fat32 25 GB ] 
[07:44] <CoasterMaster> Is there a way to sync windows mobile phones with ubuntu?
[07:44] <gogeta> borne linux 8 gb sap1 gb rest winblows
[07:44] <overclucker> bourne, swap first!?!
[07:44] <bourne> swap first
[07:44] <cast> bourne: why 1gb of swap? whats the most swap you ever use? i doubt its more than 384mb..
[07:44] <bourne> wont it be as close as possible to the files of linux
[07:44] <Polygon89> bourne, how much ram do you have
[07:45] <bourne> yes, my Pagefile in windows is.. now...
[07:45] <gogeta> 512 ddr2 ram = 1 gb swap
[07:45] <Polygon89> you dont need that much swap
[07:45] <gogeta> shure do
[07:45] <bourne> 589MB
[07:45] <sauvin> windows is a hog. It NEEDS a pagefile. Linux almost doesn't.
[07:45] <Polygon89> at the very least you need equal to the amount of ram you do
[07:45] <Irreducibilis> For my winXP box, I have 512mb ram and 4096mb pagefile swap
[07:45] <Polygon89> no you dont :D
[07:45] <Irreducibilis> Because it NEEDS it to run well
[07:45] <cast> bourne: windows isn't linux....
[07:45] <daprie> gogeta, I posted more info about the problem a while ago... do you know anything that I can try?
[07:45] <Polygon89> if you want to suspend to ram you need a swap partition equal to your ram
[07:45] <gogeta> dapre?
[07:45] <bourne> the pagefile in windows here.. is inbetween 300-500 mb
[07:46] <Polygon89> so bourne what im suggesting
[07:46] <daprie> yeah?
[07:46] <cari> Does Windows use the page file before it even touches the ram?
[07:46] <bourne> if i run openoffice....
[07:46] <bourne> will it write to swap?
[07:46] <Irreducibilis> It uses the ram and then goes to pagefile when it runs out of ram
[07:46] <Polygon89> bourne, 10 gb for each operating system, either 512 mb or 1 gig for swap (you decide) and the left over space /home
[07:46] <gogeta> i missed the issue
[07:46] <daprie> ok, I can't get my sound card to work
[07:46] <gogeta> yea a nivida
[07:46] <gogeta> now i rember
[07:46] <Polygon89> bourne, you need swap. if you ever want to suspend your gonna need it,, and if you ever run out of ram for some reason then random processes wont get killed if you have swap
[07:46] <gogeta> probly the hd card
[07:46] <daprie> I've tried everything suggested on the forum, still not working
[07:47] <Irreducibilis> daprie: What kind of sound card?
[07:47] <cari> daprie: That's what i came in here for too
[07:47] <daprie> Nvidia onboard
[07:47] <cari> i have sound just not 5.1
[07:47] <bourne> but i dont need a 1GB swap
[07:47] <bourne> as the pal is saying
[07:47] <bourne> ?
[07:47] <gogeta> i think that cards not working some say using the intel driver works
[07:47] <gogeta> other say it still failes
[07:47] <daprie> I've tried that as well
[07:48] <sauvin> I think the erstwhile conventional wisdom was that you need twice the amount of swap as you do RAM. I have large swap myself, but top keeps saying it's barely ever used.
[07:48] <bourne> windows puts its swap file in the firsts sectors of the disc... but that wont happen in linux right
[07:48] <bourne> i dont need a swap in the beginning
[07:48] <cast> Polygon89: you don't *need* swap ;)
[07:48] <gogeta> linux uses its own swap partation
[07:48] <daprie> anything else you can think of?
[07:49] <cast> Polygon89: you probably only want swap
[07:49] <sauvin> I don't know where linux puts its swap if it doesn't have a swap partition.
[07:49] <overclucker> bourne, linux first
[07:49] <bourne> i know but i am doing a point here... the disk stroking
[07:49] <Polygon89> cast, you dont need it but if you want to suspend, and if linux ever runs out of ram your screwed without it
[07:49] <gogeta> simple linux doesent
[07:49] <bourne> i dont want it to "full stroke" because of a swap partition in the end of it
[07:49] <gogeta> no swap partation no swap
[07:49] <Polygon89> its a good idea to have it.
[07:49] <Irreducibilis> My current WinXP swap says that it is using 450MB out of 4451MB
[07:49] <teKnofreak> sauvin, is your RAM >=2GB ?
[07:49] <sauvin> One gig.
[07:49] <bourne> ya know when the drive does a full stroke
[07:49] <bourne> loses performance
[07:49] <teKnofreak> sauvin, better have a swap for worst case
[07:50] <daprie> nvm folks... apparently my issue is not that important... this is the second time that this chatroom has been useless for me!
[07:50] <gogeta> not if you have a fast drive
[07:50] <sauvin> I have swap simply out of habit. Four gigs, iirc.
[07:50] <bourne> that is why i thought was in the beginning
[07:50] <Polygon89> bourne, your swap partiton is just a seprate partition
[07:50] <teKnofreak> daprie, this is not chat room*
[07:50] <cast> Polygon89: you can run out of ram with swap too :)
[07:50] <daprie> what is it then
[07:50] <Polygon89> cast, but its harder
[07:50] <gogeta> linux only uses swap if it runs out of ram
[07:50] <teKnofreak> daprie, this is a support channel by volunteers for Ubuntu
[07:50] <bourne> so...
[07:50] <gogeta> or to store stuff for faster loading later
[07:50] <daprie> isn't this suppose to be where I go to get help with Ubuntu issues
[07:51] <Polygon89> gogeta, not it doesnt, on mine it sometimes uses swap and i still have free ram left
[07:51] <sauvin> Unlike Windows, which starts using a pagefile in anticipation of running out of ram, because it knows it will.
[07:51] <bourne> (linux)-(swap)-(ntfs)-(ntfs) ??
[07:51] <overclucker> linux | swap | storage | winblows
[07:51] <teKnofreak> daprie, s/got to get/most probably get/
[07:51] <sauvin> daprie, what's your ubuntu issue?
[07:51] <Polygon89> bourne, whats the second ntfs partition for?
[07:51] <bourne> storing data only
[07:51] <overclucker> boubbin_, lookin good
[07:51] <nicholaspaul> i use 'sudo ifconfig ath0 *********' to set my ip, but when i type ifconfig again, the ip is different. doesnt ifconfig set the ip?
[07:51] <bourne> i will access that data from both linux and win
[07:51] <daprie> I can't get my soundcard to work... it's an Nvidia on board soundcard
[07:51] <cast> daprie: my two cents: buy a real sound card. my nvidia integrated sound mobos have a lot of static
[07:51] <overclucker> boubbin_, srry
[07:52] <Polygon89> bourne, hmm, if you make that your home folder that might be a little interestering
[07:52] <gogeta> well bourne if your pcs gonna memery threash thers not mutch you can do for performace
[07:52] <Polygon89> bourne, cause ntfs doesnt keep partitions
[07:52] <gogeta> other then more ram
[07:52] <winbond> nvidia doesnt make soundcards
[07:52] <Polygon89> bourne, i mean permissions
[07:52] <bourne> it can't be ext3
[07:52] <bourne> because windows wont acess it
[07:52] <bourne> i need win to acess it
[07:52] <myriadar> good morning, how do I navigate in Windows-directories which have 2 names, e.g. Program Files? cd Program Files give me an error
[07:52] <sauvin> There IS an ext2 driver for Windows.
[07:52] <Polygon89> sauvin, but that causes A LOT of problems
[07:52] <Slart> myriadar: try Program\ Files
[07:52] <daprie> onboard means that it's built into a nvidia motherboard... the chipset is nvidia CK804
[07:53] <sauvin> It does?
[07:53] <psiko_> "Progran Files"
[07:53] <overclucker> bourne, and driver for ext3
[07:53] <astro76> myriadar, cd "Program Files" or cd Program\ Files
[07:53] <gogeta> mynadar linxu uses dirrent commands
[07:53] <astro76> myriadar, also tab-completion helps
[07:53] <daprie> which makes it an nvidia onboard soundcard
[07:53] <Polygon89> sauvin, oh yeah, i used it and fsck got mad at me and had to recheck it cause it always failed
[07:53] <winbond> daprie: what motherboard u got?
[07:53] <myriadar> great, thx!
[07:53] <MeRodent> myriadar, or just tab complete
[07:53] <Polygon89> sauvin, cause its only ext2.. not ext3.. so the jorunal gets screwed up
[07:53] <gogeta> spaces are normal app\ app
[07:53] <myriadar> and cu :) have a nice day
[07:53] <gogeta> vs just a space
[07:53] <nicholaspaul> Anyone know why a wifi card wont pick an IP with DHCP????
[07:53] <overclucker> bourne, but winblows can't handle ext properly
[07:53] <nicholaspaul> can i force it?
[07:53] <Polygon89> bourne, i would suggest making like a 1-2 gb home partition
[07:53] <cari> is ext2 the one that lets you write to ntfs?
[07:53] <daprie> Biostar TForce4 SLi
[07:54] <Polygon89> bourne, that way your home folder has the correct permissions and you can just store all your data on that ntfs partition
[07:54] <bourne> polygon: is that partition necessary
[07:54] <kahrytan> starvinmarvin, whats that for
[07:54] <starvinmarvin> No idea. I just found it.
[07:54] <Polygon89> im not sure, but ntfs does not support permissions, i dont know if something is going to be screwed up if you have your home on ntfs
[07:54] <bourne> wait a minute your getting me wonrg
[07:54] <kahrytan> @lart starvinmarvin
[07:54] <starvinmarvin> You were the first person I saw after my discovery.
[07:55] <kahrytan> thought so. doesnt work here
[07:55] <bourne> that DATA partition must be shared from WIn and Lin
[07:55] <bourne> it cant be ext3
[07:55] <bourne> and it can't be a /home
[07:55] <bourne> its just like a big trash can
[07:55] <sauvin> cari, for writing to ntfs, you need either an ntfs driver or ntfs-3g.
[07:55] <Polygon89> ah
[07:55] <winbond> daprie: the audio chip is Realtek ALC850
[07:55] <Irreducibilis> O_O Does ubuntu support 2 x 1TB drives in raid?
[07:55] <kahrytan> Polygon89, 2gb /home is way to small
[07:55] <cari> sauvin: Ah yes that one.
[07:55] <overclucker> bourne, fat32/
[07:55] <daprie> winbond: It's a Biostar TForce4 SLi mobo
[07:55] <gogeta> baourne thers a way to get windows to se ext3
[07:55] <Polygon89> so that works then
[07:55] <Polygon89> kahrytan, not if he doesnt store anytthing on it
[07:56] <iliketofrolic> can i create a ext3 partition from ubuntu if the space is already free?
[07:56] <kahrytan> Polygon89, could download games
[07:56] <sauvin> Sure can!
[07:56] <yetengji> how do i get the UUID for fstab?
[07:56] <faileas> Irreducibilis: probably
[07:56] <kahrytan> Polygon89, he could install windows apps for wine
[07:56] <faileas> iliketofrolic: repartition with gparted and you could
[07:56] <overclucker> iliketofrolic, yeah, cfdisk
[07:56] <nicholaspaul> Q: when i type 'ifconfig, to view my wifi settings, i have ath0, lo and wifi0-00 listed. whats the last one?????
[07:56] <cari> sauvin: Husband just upgraded to Gutsy from Feisty after i got the mouse side buttons, some advanced keyboard buttons, and 5.1 sound back.
[07:56] <Polygon89> bourne, so that works, just have like 10 gb Linux (root), 512-1 gig Linux (swap) 10 gb Windows whatever else left ntfs storage
[07:56] <Polygon89> kahrytan, he is going to have a ntfs partition for storing everything
[07:56] <overclucker> iliketofrolic, man cfdisk before using it
[07:57] <bourne> but...
[07:57] <iliketofrolic> alright brb i am on the 6.06 live cd and gparted won't format but it can delete
[07:57] <gogeta> poly why
[07:57] <cari> sauvin: Now I have to remember how i did that in the first place and write it down for future use ... gah
[07:57] <Chillout2k7> Hi everyone... just installed Ubuntu for the first time, after choking on Vista. Having some difficulties connecting with my wireless adapter, and was hoping someone could give me a hand. Looks like the device drivers are good, and the network manager shows the wireless connection under Manual Configuration, but it still won't connect (checked security settings etc.) Am i missing something?
[07:57] <iliketofrolic> k
[07:57] <bourne> there comes the issue, wouldnt fat32 be more stable
[07:57] <gogeta> why not use ext3
[07:57] <Polygon89> you cant install winxp on fat32
[07:57] <gogeta> you can
[07:57] <kahrytan> Polygon89, NTFS in Linux is slow as .. <sensor>
[07:57] <Polygon89> oh wait
[07:57] <Polygon89> hmm
[07:57] <Polygon89> no its not i use it
[07:57] <nicholaspaul> Can nobody help??
[07:57] <myriadar> hello again ^^" another problem has popped up
[07:57] <overclucker> bourne, fat32 for storage is a good idea
[07:57] <sauvin> You CAN install Windows on FAT32. You don't WANT to, but you CAN.
[07:57] <Polygon89> not if you want a stable winxp installation you dont lol
[07:57] <gogeta> if you make a fat32 partation you can install xp on it
[07:57] <bourne> kahrytan thats good information
[07:57] <winbond> daprie: how do u know the its the soundcard thats not working
[07:58] <faileas> kahrytan: ntfs-3g is quite fast IMO
[07:58] <MeRodent> Polygon89, there's a stable windows?
[07:58] <kahrytan> faileas, It is quite slow to me
[07:58] <bourne> but NTFS + FAT should be ok?
[07:58] <gogeta> why not just ext3 thow
[07:58] <gogeta> you can make windows see it
[07:58] <overclucker> Polygon89, there's no such thing as a stable win xp installation!
[07:58] <faileas> true
[07:58] <Polygon89> gogeta, that ext driver for windows sucks
[07:58] <myriadar> to configure wine for using lotus notes on ubuntu7.04, I need to open /.wine/config, but I cant find the file in my home-dir
[07:58] <faileas> overclucker: personally i disagree
[07:58] <Polygon89> gogeta, i used it, completely fed up my journal, had to run fsck every time i booted into linux after writing to it
[07:59] <myriadar> anyone has stolen my config-file? ^^
[07:59] <kahrytan> bourne, You can use a Windows tool to access ext3 partition. (read only)
[07:59] <gogeta> i guess ntfs or fat32 for storage is his bet then
[07:59] <Polygon89> so bourne i guess you could just have 10 gb linux 10 gb windows 512mn-1gig swap and whatever else fat32 storage.....
[07:59] <cari> woohoo i did manage to fix my 5.1 ...
[07:59] <faileas> personally when i multiboot, i go for one shared FAT partition, and a native partition per OS
[07:59] <kahrytan> bourne, fs-driver.org/ for ext3 for windows
[07:59] <winbond> daprie: looks like it should work fine with alsa driver
[07:59] <mike6546> this is iliketofrolic, how do i open cfdisk for my second HD?
[07:59] <gogeta> but sotring stuff above 2 gigs in fat32 is a pain
[07:59] <Polygon89> kahrytan, again that driver sucks
[07:59] <Polygon89> kahrytan, thats only a ext2 NOTE THE 2
[08:00] <bourne> yeah.. native partitions for OSes
[08:00] <overclucker> faileas, then maybe it's me that's unstable, lol
[08:00] <Polygon89> kahrytan, so if he uses that with ext3 it doesnt record the journal = screwed up
[08:00] <bourne> and fat32 for storage
[08:00] <cast> mike6546: cfdisk /dev/hdX? or /dev/sd ...etc..
[08:00] <mike6546> k thx
[08:00] <faileas> overclucker: with a nick like that?  maybe ;p
[08:00] <overclucker> lol
[08:00] <bourne> so fat32 is safe bet
[08:00] <kahrytan> Polygon89, Hence read only part
[08:00] <bourne> for storage
[08:01] <overclucker> bourne, yes
[08:01] <Polygon89> kahrytan, he needs that for storage so that wont work
[08:01] <myriadar> to configure wine for using lotus notes on ubuntu7.04, I need to open /.wine/config, but I cant find the file in my home-dir <-- no clue?
[08:01] <gogeta> as long as its not above 2 gigs
[08:01] <cast> bourne: yip. if its sub 4gb files
[08:01] <bourne> fat32 supports up to 32gb
[08:01] <kahrytan> Polygon89, I think fat32 is best
[08:01] <gogeta> not for files
[08:01] <Polygon89> fat32 partition wise
[08:01] <cast> ignore gogeta, he uses fat16 D:
[08:01] <bourne> should be fine with 25gb at 16k cluster
[08:01] <teKnofreak> myriadar, if am not wrong you can create one and try
[08:01] <gogeta> LOL
[08:01] <manas> I am trying to set up ssh -- when I try to ssh localhost, I get connection denied.
[08:01] <Polygon89> fat32 cannot have files over 4 gb
[08:02] <bourne> i dont have 4gb files..
[08:02] <bourne> LOL
[08:02] <manas> Hi
[08:02] <Polygon89> then that works :D
[08:02] <gogeta> yep
[08:02] <nicholaspaul> Can anyone help me with my wifi troubles/ I cant get it to fetch an IP via DHCP.
[08:02] <Polygon89> its only a real problem with like games that have massive archives
[08:02] <codename> any way i can update my ipod using ubuntu
[08:02] <daprie> winbond: what driver do I use though?
[08:02] <myriadar> this howto speaks of "add this to the config" :/ http://www.nsftools.com/tips/UseNotesWithWine.htm
[08:02] <cast> Polygon89: and isos. and backups. and video.
[08:02] <teKnofreak> nicholaspaul, is there a link ?
[08:02] <overclucker> nicholaspaul, are you connected to a dhcp server?
[08:02] <Polygon89> cast, backup programs are usually smart enough to split backups into 4 gb chunks
[08:03] <manas> hi -- I am trying to install ssh into my localhost and I get 'connection refused'. I have added myself to hosts-allow.
[08:03] <nicholaspaul> teKnofreak a link? overclucker i'm not connected, but i'm trying to
[08:03] <manas> anyone have any idea of how to fix this
[08:03] <kahrytan> bourne, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_systems
[08:03] <Polygon89> cast, i also have entire dvds that are less then a GB on my hard drive, so i think he is fine
[08:03] <teKnofreak> nicholaspaul, connected/link as in active physical connection.. do "sudo mii-tool"
[08:03] <nicholaspaul> overclucker static ip settings under 'network' dont work,
[08:03] <leafw> anybody tried gutsy on a T60p
[08:03] <jesson> im trying 2 download cedega how can i dowload it from terminal?? i tried apt-get install cedega_timedemo and it doesnt work
[08:03] <jesson> im trying 2 download cedega how can i dowload it from terminal?? i tried apt-get install cedega_timedemo and it doesnt work
[08:03] <nicholaspaul> teKnofreaki cant ping in or out.. i'll check that command.
[08:03] <gogeta> lol
[08:04] <winbond> daprie: u probably have alsa already installed, what are you trying to play , and what errors are u getting if any?
[08:04] <gogeta> whers the old run comand window
[08:04] <fredde_> is there an GUI for opening ports ?
[08:04] <teKnofreak> gogeta, alt+f2
[08:04] <overclucker> nicholaspaul, is dhcp started?
[08:04] <nicholaspaul> teKnofreak 'No MII interfaces found"
[08:04] <cast> Polygon89: that makes no sense...a dual layer dvd is 8.5GB, a single layer 4.7GB
[08:04] <gogeta> oh
[08:04] <codeshah> hey guys, I just installed Aptana on my machine ... I am wondering where to place it . What is best practices? Currently this is just on my user account folder
[08:04] <nicholaspaul> overclucker the router is up and running, do i have to start it from Ubuntu?
[08:04] <daprie> winbond:  I ran "lspci -v" and it picked up the sound card... I don't really know what else to try to make sure that it's the sound card that is the problem
[08:04] <teKnofreak> nicholaspaul, is your eth(x) up ?
[08:04] <myriadar> I have feisty on a r60, leafw
[08:04] <overclucker> nicholaspaul, the client
[08:05] <daprie> winbond: I'm just trying to play a CD and I'm getting no errors
[08:05] <nicholaspaul> overclucker i have to restart the client? How do i do that?
[08:05] <teKnofreak> nicholaspaul, if there is a link b/w your machine and the router, mii-tool should show it up
[08:05] <nicholaspaul> teKnofreak  oh its ath0. it shows up in ifconfig
[08:05] <onespinalcracker> I don't seem to be able to receive files via DCC using xchat. Is there a FAQ or some published checklist to see if I'm overlooking something?
[08:05] <jesson> how can i download cedega from terminal ?
[08:05] <nicholaspaul> teKnofreak oh i see. I'm 'trying' to connect wirelessly
[08:05] <Polygon89> cast, as in a dvd ripped as a video file, less then 1 gb
[08:05] <codeshah> hey guys, I just installed Aptana on my machine ... I am wondering where to place it . What is best practices? Currently this is just on my user account folder
[08:05] <mike6546> how do i access the new ext3 partition that i just made?
[08:05] <Polygon89> cast, not a actual dvd iso
[08:05] <daprie> winbond: It just sounds like it's been muted although in alsamixer it isn't
[08:05] <overclucker> nicholaspaul, sudo ifconfig ath0 dhcp sart
[08:05] <teKnofreak> nicholaspaul, ahh.. run dhclient3*
[08:06] <teKnofreak> nicholaspaul, without the star
[08:06] <kahrytan> cast, DVDs don't have vob files larger then 2gb
[08:06] <teKnofreak> nicholaspaul, sudo dhclient3
[08:06] <winbond> daprie: alsamixer can have 2 or 3 different sliders which cintrol the same volume, play around with it
[08:06] <teKnofreak> mike6546, mount it
[08:06] <kahrytan> Polygon89, don't need an iso to burn a dvd
[08:06] <winbond> daprie: usually its first 2 from the left,
[08:07] <daprie> winbond: I actually did that before I came on here... nothing helped
[08:07] <Polygon89> kahrytan, i was talking about how i had a ripped dvd movie file on my hard drive that was less then 1 gb, nothing about burning
[08:07] <qazwsx> are there any linux progs that can unzip *.hqx files ?
[08:07] <daprie> yeah, I tried those
[08:07] <nicholaspaul> teKnofreak that did the trick, thanks ! So do i have to use that command regularly?
[08:08] <cast> Polygon89: FWIW you didn't just rip, you ripped and performed lossy compression...
[08:08] <overclucker> mike6546, sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/disknameherre /media/mountpointhere
[08:08] <cari> anyone know what repo automatix is in? (gutsy)
[08:08] <cd\> DCC SEND "RANDOM NUMBERS"
[08:08] <bourne> so
[08:08] <kahrytan> Polygon89, and each file is less then 1.1gb
[08:08] <bourne> i see here that FAT32 is so limited
[08:08] <nicholaspaul> overclucker whats the diff between 'sudo ifconfig ath0 dhcp start' and 'sudo dhclient3' ?
[08:08] <teKnofreak> nicholaspaul, nope.. it should run it when you bootup.. dhclient3 is for wireless
[08:08] <bourne> would it be better to store my storage in NTFS?
[08:08] <Hobbsee> nalioth: ping
[08:08] <nicholaspaul> teKnofreak and what does that do?
[08:08] <nicholaspaul> There's a nalioth here
[08:08] <nicholaspaul> ?
[08:09] <teKnofreak> nicholaspaul, dhclient3 queries the dhcp server thru wireless interface for a dhcp
[08:09] <bulmer> nicholaspaul: that seems a wrong sequence of commands
[08:09] <nicholaspaul> teKnofreak ahhh
[08:09] <cast> kahrytan: you two seem to be talking a subset of dvd, that being dvd-video. ahh, not important!

[08:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mtab - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:09] <teKnofreak> nicholaspaul, would have told it right in the beginning if I knew it was wireless ;)
[08:09] <bourne> Is this article FUD?
[08:09] <nicholaspaul> overclucker yEA. GOTCHA!!

[08:10] <nicholaspaul> overclucker sorry, i meant 'yea, gotcha'
[08:10] <mike6546> sorry
[08:10] <daprie> winbond: I have followed all of the steps in this thread on the forum: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449&highlight=nvidia+on+board+sound+problems
[08:10] <overclucker> lol
[08:10] <nicholaspaul> teKnofreak LOL
[08:10] <kahrytan> b14ck, http://www.videolan.org/developers/libdvdcss.html  and homepage for vlc or in repos
[08:10] <nicholaspaul> thorry!
[08:10] <mike6546> how do i mount the second partition on hdb?
[08:10] <bourne> Polygon89: is this article FUD http://cquirke.mvps.org/ntfs.htm
[08:10] <mike6546> that's why i kept using uboto
[08:11] <b14ck> kahrytan: there is no libdvdcss2 in the repos
[08:11] <overclucker> mike6546, sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb2 /media/mountpoint
[08:11] <kahrytan> b14ck, http://www.videolan.org/developers/libdvdcss.html
[08:11] <teKnofreak> mike6546, ubotu can answer that it knows.. it is not Google ;)
[08:11] <b14ck> kahrytan: do i have to build it myself?
[08:11] <kahrytan> b14ck, It is there. VLC is in the repos. no
[08:11] <winbond> daprie: you can try to update the kernel /system ,
[08:11] <b14ck> kahrytan: how ddo i get it installed then?
[08:12] <overclucker> mike6546, where mountpoint is the folder you chose to mount it on
[08:12] <neol> does some one know which is the channel for Linux-mint
[08:12] <kahrytan> b14ck, goto the site first
[08:12] <b14ck> kahrytan: im there
[08:12] <winbond> daprie: which kernel r u running
[08:12] <b14ck> kahrytan: in the releases section
[08:12] <b14ck> kahrytan: do i need a .deb?
[08:12] <mike6546> k
[08:12] <kahrytan> b14ck, yes
[08:12] <overclucker> mike6546, do man mount from console
[08:12] <neol> which is linux-mint channel
[08:12] <b14ck> kahrytan: how do i install the .deb?
[08:13] <kahrytan> b14ck, just open it on the desktop
[08:13] <bulmer> dpkg -i deb
[08:13] <Polygon89> bourne, its not that limited, just cant store bigger then 4 gb files
[08:13] <Polygon89> bourne, and it fragments more, but so does ntfs... so i think using it would be better cause linux supports it better
[08:13] <daprie> winbond: not sure really... is there a command that I can run to get that info?
[08:13] <onespinalcracker> Can anyone help with DCC file receiving issues on xchat?
[08:13] <winbond> neol: irc.spotchat.org #linuxmint.com
[08:14] <jesson> i recently download torrent from add/remove program but i cant find them on my application menu where do ubuntu install programs? which folder? the /bin ??
[08:14] <b14ck> kahrytan: ok got it isntalled. now how do i use vlc to play my dvd?
[08:14] <codeshah> hey guys... sorry just a newbie question : I downloaded this app for development called aptana ... Im trying to figure out where to put it . What is the best practice? ...
[08:14] <kahrytan> jesson, which one?
[08:14] <winbond> daprie: uname -r
[08:14] <neol> winbond, thanks
[08:14] <overclucker> jesson, try /usr,
[08:14] <kahrytan> b14ck, Goto the synaptic and install VLC
[08:14] <cast> codeshah: depends. is it a source package?
[08:14] <b14ck> kahrytan: already did
[08:15] <codeshah> cast, no its just that ... like eclipse .
[08:15] <daprie> winbond: 2.6.20-16-generic
[08:15] <kahrytan> then open disc
[08:15] <codeshah> cast, its sitting in my home dir right now :)
[08:15] <kahrytan> b14ck, Open Disc (ctrl-d)
[08:15] <jesson> bittorrent for linux i downloaded it but i cant find it
[08:15] <bourne> a ubuntu installation will take up to how much space?
[08:15] <b14ck> kahrytan: when i do that, vlc just crashes
[08:15] <kahrytan> b14ck, Doesnt for me.
[08:16] <codeshah> cast, any ideas? Do I just move it somewhere ?
[08:16] <craig__> If I need to clone my /dev directory on to another disk (building a new root), how do I do that?
[08:17] <winbond> daprie: do this, sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:17] <xaxxon> any idea how to find out if I can install ubuntu server to an onboard raid device?
[08:17] <kahrytan> b14ck, My vlc automatically opens when dvd is inserted too
[08:17] <b14ck> thats interesting
[08:18] <winbond> daprie: then reboot and hope for the best, i cant really help u any more, sry
[08:18] <kahrytan> b14ck, open vlc and the put dvd in.
[08:18] <b14ck> kahrytan: you knwo what
[08:18] <b14ck> vlc doesnt work
[08:18] <b14ck> but now
[08:18] <b14ck> totem works
[08:18] <b14ck> oddly enough
[08:18] <b14ck> so i guess libdvdcss2 worked with totem for me
[08:18] <xaxxon> I set up the drives in the bios, but linux just sees them as individual drives.. I know that linux tends to disregard the bios for a lot of things.. but I'd like to install my os to a raid-1 mirror
[08:18] <b14ck> thats all i really need
[08:18] <b14ck> thanks
[08:19] <bullgard4> Is there an ordinary name for the 'sysfs' identifier?
[08:19] <winbond> daprie: also , which app did u use to play the cd?
[08:19] <xaxxon> the board has an adaptec and intel raid mode.. but I've tried both and a 'normal' install doesn't work with either..
[08:19] <daprie> winbond: sound juicer
[08:20] <daprie> winbond: Thanks for the help!  I really appreciate it.
[08:20] <aleix> hello! Quick question, does anyone know if Upstart has replaced Cron (I know it replaced init)?

[08:21] <aleix> Hello, sorry if doubleposting, has Upstart replaced Cron?
[08:21] <kornerr> what package contains dpkg-scanpackages?
[08:21] <winbond> daprie: np, im not much of help
[08:21] <Flannel> aleix: no, upstart replaced init
[08:22] <cast> xaxxon: often those builtin 'raid' features is only fakeraid and people suggest you don't use it at all, not sure if thats your case or not
[08:22] <Flannel> aleix: I don't believe upstart is trying to replace cron.  But, I suppose it might be.
[08:22] <aleix> yep i did know that... but i've read somewhere that upstart would eventually also replace cron... sounds wierd, but is it possible?
[08:22] <frogzoo> aleix: I greatly doubt it
[08:22] <aztec13> >	i am just starting firestarter. i want to know if i should check ip address assigned via DHCP ? i have cable but i had problems with hooking up when i 1st got this cpu so i ran a ethernet cable but does that affect me in anyway now when im setting this all up ? how secure is firestarter who am i safe from now or what ? what exactly are its up sides and down sides ? and will having it now...
[08:22] <Flannel> aleix: sure.  You'll just have an event like "at 10am" which triggers whatever.
[08:22] <aztec13> ...affect my interacting with a new host acct or will it effct ant of the developmental things ? somebody fill me in pls
[08:23] <aleix> quote: "For example, Mac OS X cron is handled by "launchd" (and is not used for anything by default). Ubuntu is going to be changing init soon (see Replacing init with Upstart), and Upstart will eventually replace cron entirely"
[08:23] <frogzoo> aztec13: -> google
[08:23] <Flannel> aleix: Ah, yes, I just found it on the webpage.  Yes, it is slated/already/whatever replacing cron.
[08:23] <frogzoo> !info firestarter
[08:23] <ubotu> firestarter: gtk program for managing and observing your firewall. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.3-2ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 396 kB, installed size 1920 kB
[08:25] <aleix> ok... so i've been using ubuntu server for quite a while and had never had the need to use cron... but now I find that scripts won't run... specially interested in cron.daily for backup purposes.... is this also wide known?

[08:26] <bulmer> codeshah: you can have your data from fat partitions
[08:26] <frogzoo> grrr
[08:26] <aurous> yes, you need to mount the windows drive in linux to be able to read info in it

[08:29] <kahrytan> Who wants to help me figure out why Totem won't play dvds despite the fact codecs and libdvdcss2 is installed?
[08:29] <punsad> kahrytan: is it only totem that is giving you the problem? did you try xine?
[08:30] <aurous> Kahrytan: what error messages are you getting?
[08:30] <kahrytan> punsad, xine doesnt work either
[08:31] <kahrytan> no input plugin
[08:31] <kahrytan> codecs are installed
[08:32] <punsad> kahrytan: did you try googling your problem?
[08:32] <aurous> does it see the dvd?
[08:33] <punsad> kahrytan: that's a good question from aurous.  Are you able to mount data dvds?
[08:33] <dstadulis> I recently installed rEFIt and now I get this error message when I boot: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36658/ ?
[08:34] <Azures> hi
[08:34] <dstadulis> hello
[08:34] <kahrytan> totem uses gstreamer right?
[08:34] <teKnofreak> what is the corresponding conf file for Preferences-->Windows settings ?
[08:34] <kahrytan> punsad, it plays in vlc.
[08:34] <Azures> im having problem i can't access the internet with Ubuntu
[08:34] <Azures> it deteced my nw card
[08:34] <Azures> RTL8139
[08:34] <_SiLENT_> helloo
[08:35] <_SiLENT_> that's my network card :)
[08:35] <punsad> kahrytan: hmm.... so totem and xine don't work, but vlc does.  strange
[08:35] <codeshah> is there a tutorial on what best practices for linux app install is -> particularly directories . I have aptana and ies4linux, and I dont like them sitting in my home dir ... where should I Place them
[08:35] <punsad> codeshah:/ /usr/localbin
[08:35] <aurous> azures: is it a wireless card?
[08:35] <Azures> no distro seems to work with my internet its dsl with a 2wire gateway
[08:35] <punsad> codeshah:/ /usr/local/bin  I mean
[08:36] <Azures> RTL8139 isnt wireless
[08:36] <Azures> its ethernet
[08:36] <codeshah> punsad, thanks . that is for the executable, right ?
[08:36] <punsad> codeshah: right
[08:37] <codeshah> punsad, what about the app ... I assume I place the app somewhere and then link the executable there .
[08:37] <kahrytan> punsad, Totem uses gstreamer?
[08:37] <Polygon89> kahrytan, totem and either use gstreamer or xine
[08:37] <_SiLENT_> hey guys who can help me with transferring to ubuntu from M$ winblows
[08:37] <Polygon89> kahrytan, can**
[08:37] <cast> _SiLENT_: i'd install openssh and use winscp on the windows box :)
[08:37] <punsad> kahrytan: no idea
[08:38] <ziggy> Qustion Can i remote to my windows harddrives that i have map out on the server ??
[08:38] <_SiLENT_> cast, u speak to a nooby lamer
[08:38] <faileas> _SiLENT_: i
[08:38] <_SiLENT_> cast, I didn't get a word
[08:38] <punsad> codeshah: app?  not sure what you mean here.  I consider the app the binary
[08:38] <kahrytan> Polygon89, by default gstreamer
[08:38] <_SiLENT_> faileas, what?
[08:38] <faileas> _SiLENT_: i'd repartition with gparted and dual boot initially
[08:38] <codeshah> punsad, oh, is that how it is? hmm
[08:38] <Polygon89> kahrytan, yes by default
[08:38] <codeshah> punsad, for example, something like eclipse ...
[08:38] <faileas> see what i said initially ;)
[08:39] <cast> _SiLENT_: well, ok. guess we have to resolve a few things. spell words properly, for a start, and openssh is how most of the non-windows world remotely/securely logs into computers and/or moves files about
[08:39] <faileas> _SiLENT_: get things working, and once everything is 'ok' *then* delete the windows system
[08:39] <kahrytan> Polygon89,  yet totem doesnt play dvds
[08:40] <Polygon89> kahrytan, that is a bug with gstreamer atm i know what your talking about however
[08:40] <_SiLENT_> cast, and wht is  winscp?
[08:40] <Polygon89> kahrytan, you want me to give you instructions on how to get totem playing dvds?
[08:40] <kahrytan> Polygon89, yeah
[08:40] <_SiLENT_> faileas, I have very expensive internet traffic right now
[08:40] <Polygon89> kahrytan, have to install the libdvdcss2 package from the mediubuntu repos
[08:40] <_SiLENT_> faileas, should I wait till I have better?
[08:40] <faileas> _SiLENT_: i was assuming its the same system?
[08:40] <Polygon89> kahrytan, have to install totem-xine and xine-ui
[08:40] <cast> _SiLENT_: the program you'd use in windows to access the openssh server running....oh. wait. i see. is the ubuntu computer the same was the windows computer?
[08:40] <faileas> you wouldn't need internet
[08:41] <kahrytan> Polygon89, libdvdcss2 is already installed
[08:41] <faileas> want ubuntu? get the livecd delivered to you, free ;)
[08:41] <kahrytan> and not using xine
[08:41] <Polygon89> kahrytan, then make sure that libdvdread and libdvdnav are installed
[08:41] <_SiLENT_> faileas, I requested a CD
[08:41] <faileas> !shipit
[08:41] <ubotu> shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[08:41] <Polygon89> kahrytan, watching dvds with totem-gstreamer is impossible at the moment. its a bug
[08:41] <punsad> _SiLENT_: it takes a little while
[08:41] <_SiLENT_> I already did tht thankx
[08:41] <Polygon89> kahrytan, totem-xine is essentially the same thing. you wont notice a difference.
[08:41] <_SiLENT_> yep I am waiting
[08:42] <randy026> I have a 1440 x 900 screen it looks fine when it boots to the desktop but when the nividia logo comes on my whole screen goes haywire
[08:42] <faileas> _SiLENT_: well then you wouldn't need internet until you decided you wanted to install or update packages
[08:42] <randy026> when I go to screen saver or try to play games it reboots X something isnt right
[08:42] <kahrytan> Im determined to get it work
[08:42] <Polygon89> kahrytan, however if you MUST have totem-gstreamer, and cannot bear to install totem-xine, just install VLC and it will play it fine
[08:43] <kahrytan> Im leaving gstreamer in
[08:43] <Polygon89> kahrytan, its a bug within the program. i know what your talking about, it will start to play when you put the dvd in, but then you actually go to play>dvd then it says there is no codec
[08:43] <Polygon89> kahrytan, it doesnt remove gstreamer, it just removes totem-gstreamer and installs totem-xine and the xine libs
[08:43] <Geoffrey2> I'm reinstalling feisty, I have about 95,000 MB available for / and /home, how should I allocate that between the two directories?
[08:43] <_SiLENT_> look, guys. this is my situation: I have slow expensive internet and gonna gave a better one soon. Also one more computer purchase is planned. Should I wait untill all this happens and only then dive the linux world? what do you think?
[08:44] <_SiLENT_> right now i have only one pc
[08:44] <faileas> _SiLENT_: personally, try the live CD, get used to it, iron out annoyances. you can do all that now
[08:44] <_SiLENT_> now? how?
[08:44] <faileas> with  a live CD, if you mess up just reboot ;)
[08:44] <punsad> _SiLENT_: when will you switch internet connections?
[08:44] <Polygon89> _SiLENT_, you can just download the feisty live cd and then you can hold off on updates till you get a better connection, and then you can use the live cd to reinstall if you get a new computer
[08:45] <_SiLENT_> what is a liveCD?
[08:45] <hendo> hello i have ubuntu fiesty installed
[08:45] <_SiLENT_> is the ubuntu CD I requested a liveCD?
[08:45] <Polygon89> _SiLENT_, yes
[08:45] <_SiLENT_> hmmm
[08:45] <_SiLENT_> ok
[08:45] <punsad> _SiLENT__: pop in the cd, and you get a working linux system after boot
[08:45] <hendo> i want to run windows inside ubuntu
[08:45] <Polygon89> _SiLENT_, a live cd is the installation cd, but when you put in your computer, it actually boots up ubuntu from the CD into your ram
[08:45] <kahrytan> Polygon89, I'm not removing gstreamer. period
[08:45] <punsad> hendo: there's several articles on how to do that
[08:45] <hendo> yes
[08:46] <Polygon89> kahrytan, it does not remove gstreamer. it just removes totem-gstreamer.
[08:46] <daschl> hello guys. today's tribe 6 release?
[08:46] <_SiLENT_> now tell me plz, will ubuntu be as easy as windows for me?
[08:46] <punsad> hendo: linus magazine had one in the July 2007 edition
[08:46] <daschl> _SiLENT_, depends on what you want to do
[08:46] <Polygon89> _SiLENT_, if you are not a huge gamer you should be fine.
[08:46] <hendo> yes
[08:46] <punsad> _SiLENT_: no
[08:46] <overclucker> Geoffrey2, 6gb / | 1-2gb swap | 1-x gb /home
[08:46] <kahrytan> Polygon89, which I wont remove
[08:46] <hendo> you got the link for it
[08:46] <_SiLENT_> not gamer AT ALL
[08:46] <daschl> _SiLENT_, so what do you do in your daily computer-life?
[08:47] <_SiLENT_> evryhing else
[08:47] <Polygon89> kahrytan, well then enjoy not being able to play dvds with it until gstreamer fixes it, which atm with gutsy tribe 6 is still not fixed.
[08:47] <codeshah> my windows partition is mounted on /dev/sda2 ... now, when I open the music player (Amarok) I want to go to my My Music folder on that partiiaon ... and play from there ... but it doesnt show it in Amarok ... do I have to move the files over?
[08:47] <Polygon89> kahrytan, try VLC, it doesnt use gstreamer as its backend and can play DVD's fine (it has the codec built in)
[08:47] <_SiLENT_> browsing, e-mail, video, audio, etc.
[08:47] <bluebanana> hi, my older computer, at bootup, says "Insert system disk and press enter." last time i tried it, it booted up to ubuntu fine. what's wrong?
[08:47] <Polygon89> _SiLENT_, then you should be fine
[08:47] <bluebanana> I unscrewed the case off but everything looks connected
[08:47] <_SiLENT_> well for windows, for example I installed 100 apps
[08:47] <overclucker> codeshah, ntfs-3g?
[08:47] <bluebanana> Bios thinks that I don't have a hard drive.
[08:48] <bluebanana> which is funny, because i have 2 hard drives attached
[08:48] <Geoffrey2> _SiLENT_, be patient...if you're used to Windows, it may take a little while to get used to an operating system that does things the RIGHT way :)
[08:48] <kahrytan> Polygon89, I see what you mean with totem
[08:48] <hendo> hey punsad would you have the link for the magazine
[08:48] <kahrytan> totem doesnt do menus so fuck it
[08:48] <_SiLENT_> Geoffrey2 :)
[08:48] <kahrytan> oops sorry
[08:48] <_SiLENT_> all apps in windows are expensive
[08:48] <faileas> Geoffrey2: i don't personally find there's that much of a difference till you get down to compiling, and things like that
[08:48] <faileas> _SiLENT_: not true
[08:48] <Polygon89> kahrytan, yeah just use totem-xine, its the exact same program only it uses xine backend instead of gstreamer, and you can still use gstreamer
[08:48] <_SiLENT_> faileas, I mean the good ones
[08:48] <Polygon89> kahrytan, in other programs..
[08:49] <booster> hey guys i need some help with the pcsX emulator....i need to know were to put the plugins and bios files
[08:49] <faileas> in fact, i use most of the same, free apps in windows and linux
[08:49] <hendo> so how do you run windows inside unbuntu
[08:49] <faileas> hendo: vmware
[08:49] <kahrytan> Polygon89, but does totem use menus?
[08:49] <hendo> yes
[08:49] <Polygon89> kahrytan, the problem with totem-gstreamer and dvds is some bug
[08:49] <Polygon89> kahrytan, so it screws up with dvd menus
[08:49] <punsad> hendo: http://www.advicesource.org/ubuntu/Run_Existing_Windows_Instalation_On_Ubuntu_With_Vmware_player.html
[08:50] <Polygon89> kahrytan, but with totem-xine menus and everything works perfectly
[08:50] <sauvin> there's nothing wrong with being a "mostly windows" guy, faileas, the "wrong" would be in trying to convince other people to be that wayl
[08:50] <kahrytan> Polygon89, It's totem-gstreamer bug?
[08:50] <faileas> sauvin: there is no right or wrong way, only users ;)
[08:50] <_SiLENT_> well, I dunno, as I have no money I need to use help of pirates (oops, I didn't say that). But I wanna get legal, that's why I wanted to move from winblows to ubuntu
[08:50] <Polygon89> kahrytan, either that or just a gstreamer bug, its reported on launchpad
[08:50] <punsad> hendo: that's not a link for the magazine.. but it's similar
[08:50] <nanonyme> faileas, did you mean: lusers
[08:50] <kahrytan> Polygon89, For how long?
[08:51] <hendo> thanks punsad
[08:51] <hendo> i will look now
[08:51] <faileas> _SiLENT_: other than games ... most of my apps on either OS are free ;)
[08:51] <faileas> nanonyme: probably ;)
[08:51] <nanonyme> since root is always right anyway :)
[08:51] <_SiLENT_> faileas, that means you don't use as many as I do :)
[08:52] <nikolam> Hello, Why is (x)ubuntu giving root shell to Anyone who is behind machine, if some od UUID`s for disk partitions change before boot??
[08:52] <nanonyme> sounds like a feature
[08:52] <nikolam> giving root shell to anyone, is serious security risk
[08:52] <Polygon89> kahrytan, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/28596
[08:52] <nanonyme> not really
[08:52] <faileas> _SiLENT_: the basics, VLC for DVDs, Paint.net for drawing (one of two apps i can't get on linux), gaim/pidgin IM, thunderbird for mail, firefox or opera for web (and rarely k-meleon on older windows systems), gnu utils on windows cause i'm a wget whore ;)
[08:52] <Terrasque> nikolam: because the Shit(TM) just hit the Fan(TM)
[08:53] <nanonyme> nikolam, well, do you have a BIOS password? if not, any local user can have root
[08:53] <punsad> hendo: from my experience and hardware, I'm not able to run virtualization at a decent enough speed.
[08:53] <Polygon89> kahrytan, it is not fixed as of gusty tribe 5 (ive tried)
[08:53] <nikolam> That is just silly
[08:53] <nanonyme> btw, is that the so-called "single user mode"?
[08:53] <bluebanana>  `1
[08:53] <nanonyme> which is used for maintanence
[08:53] <faileas> _SiLENT_: all those apps other than PDN run on both ;)
[08:53] <_SiLENT_> faileas, there! I choose BEST software :) VLC sux in playing DVDs, for example
[08:54] <nikolam> Ubuntu is SO unecure
[08:54] <nanonyme> so are most linuxes
[08:54] <_SiLENT_> unsecure????
[08:54] <Terrasque> nikolam: you want to know security risk? take a windows machine, boot with live cd. Oh, full access. Boot with a password changer disc. Ooh, i got r00t! Local acces =all bets are off
[08:54] <punsad> _SiLENT_: vlc sux?  i thought it works find
[08:54] <Polygon89> nikolam, in almost any linux distro, all someone has to do is take your hd out and put it in another computer = complete access
[08:54] <nikolam> You say Dabian is unsecure also?
[08:54] <punsad> s/find/fine/
[08:54] <nanonyme> you have to crypt the partitions if you don't want an insecure linux
[08:54] <rockets> Wow
[08:54] <cast> nanonyme: wait...what? how?
[08:54] <rockets> i thought suse was more popular
[08:54] <faileas> _SiLENT_: VLC has libdvdcss ;). and there's not too many dvd players
[08:54] <rockets> the #suse room only has 200 people
[08:54] <hendo> ok
[08:54] <nanonyme> cast, anyone can chroot of a livecd
[08:54] <faileas> Terrasque: true of any other OS.
[08:55] <cast> nanonyme: anyone with physical access to a computer can do whatever the hell they want. thats not in the realm of linux to prevent
[08:55] <_SiLENT_> faileas, for example I use AnyDVD+Cyberlink PowerDVD
[08:55] <nikolam> Anyway, I will implement encryption for /home from now on..
[08:55] <Terrasque> faileas: true of any os
[08:55] <nanonyme> cast, that was the realm nikolam was talking about
[08:55] <_SiLENT_> AnyDVD does css stuff
[08:55] <m4st3r> hi
[08:55] <m4st3r> I have a big problem
[08:55] <punsad> _SiLENT_: what's your point?
[08:56] <m4st3r> My computer cpu is amd64,
[08:56] <nikolam> But it IS to linux to prevent to giving ROOT access to everyone on Every (f) reboot..
[08:56] <m4st3r> i wanna install ubuntu..
[08:56] <punsad> AnyDVD isn't free
[08:56] <nanonyme> but true, if someone gains physical access to the computer, you've already lost
[08:56] <punsad> nanonyme: do it then
[08:56] <_SiLENT_> that's what I AM SAYING
[08:56] <Polygon89> nikolam, no it doesnt.....
[08:56] <m4st3r> How can i install ubuntu on amd64?
[08:56] <nanonyme> punsad, do what?
[08:56] <_SiLENT_> good software isn't free usually in windows
[08:56] <kahrytan> Polygon89, Over a year and no one fixed it?
[08:56] <ipx_> m4st3r: that is not a problem
[08:56] <punsad> that was meant for m4st3r
[08:56] <cast> m4st3r: grab the amd64 cd
[08:56] <faileas> _SiLENT_: and what will you use instead on linux? ;)
[08:56] <kahrytan> Polygon89, It's time to upgrade restrictedformat wiki to use xine
[08:57] <ipx_> m4st3r: you can use the regular 32-bit version (recommended) or the newer 64-bit version (not recommended)
[08:57] <_SiLENT_> faileas, i don't know linux! I hope things are better there, aren't they
[08:57] <_SiLENT_> ?
[08:57] <punsad> _SiLENT_: define better
[08:57] <nanonyme> faileas, maybe some security-enhanced branch of linux with key-based hard disk encryption?
[08:57] <cast> they are better :)
[08:57] <_SiLENT_> punsad, what do u want me to define?
[08:57] <nanonyme> so that it can't be opened without a chip you always carry with you
[08:57] <cast> freedom is always better thna the converse, even if you can't get microsoft flight simulator to run.
[08:57] <punsad> _SiLENT_: it's just a joke
[08:57] <m4st3r> ipx_, punsad, cast : amd64 version is installed on my computer..
[08:57] <Polygon89> kahrytan, dont look at me
[08:57] <ward_> stupid question for a stupid GUI: how do i change the textcolor in open office? if i click it the text becomes red i can't choose the color
[08:58] <Polygon89> kahrytan, id like for this to be fixed as much as you ;)
[08:58] <ipx_> m4st3r: if you're having problem with it, i'd recommend you to install the 32bit-version
[08:58] <m4st3r> ipx_, punsad, cast : regular i386 version is print log and down
[08:58] <faileas> nanonyme: same would work on windows ;) i;ve seen mil spec encrypted systems running win 98!
[08:58] <ward_> how do i change the textcolor in open office? if i click it the text becomes red i can't choose the color
[08:58] <_SiLENT_> punsad, sorry for stupid moves, my English sux :)
[08:58] <kahrytan> Polygon89, I got ODD.
[08:58] <faileas> cast: personally freedom is running whatever OS i wanna run ;)
[08:58] <nanonyme> faileas, true :) most OS's can be secure if given enough effort
[08:58] <Irreducibilis> Except Vista
[08:59] <m4st3r> ipx_, log message is "mp-bios bug : 8254 timer not connected to io-apic"
[08:59] <shiznix> anyone know why imagemagick version hasn't been updated in over 2 years (same old version has just made it into Gutsy also) ?
[08:59] <punsad> that was meant for m4st3r
[08:59] <faileas> nanonyme: with windows part of it is user culture, admin by default is a ****ing bad idea ;)
[08:59] <ipx_> m4st3r: sorry cant help you there
[08:59] <punsad> oops
[08:59] <nanonyme> :D
[08:59] <m4st3r> ipx_, yeah thanks :)
[08:59] <m4st3r> punsad, what's mean?
[08:59] <nanonyme> faileas, it's been partly corrected in vista
[08:59] <punsad> m4st3r
[08:59] <ipx_> m4st3r: google some if you cant make it :)
[08:59] <_SiLENT_> so how do u guys search for good soft in linux/ubuntu. I windows I do it through google...
[08:59] <faileas> then again, on my first distro i kept a root shell open all the time ><
[08:59] <punsad> m4st3r: that was a typing mistake
[08:59] <m4st3r> ipx_, yeah
[09:00] <nanonyme> faileas, if you use admin as everyday use, it wants you to confirm about every program start
[09:00] <punsad> _SiLENT_: same with linux.. use google
[09:00] <faileas> nanonyme: yeah, but still *education* is what makes a system secure. after a while people get complacent
[09:00] <kahrytan> Polygon89, Whats the difference between xine and gstreamer?
[09:00] <faileas> _SiLENT_: google and apt-get ;)
[09:00] <_SiLENT_> OK
[09:00] <Polygon89> kahrytan, no idea, but it plays all my videos the same as gstreamer.....
[09:01] <punsad> _SiLENT_: but to search what's *available* you can do thinks like : apt-cache search mp3   (to see what mp3 available software is available... this doesn't mean its good)
[09:01] <faileas> nanonyme: i might partitally switch to ROS for windows based systems once it gets outa alpha, its really interesting
[09:01] <kahrytan> Polygon89, I tried with xine. Ill stick to vlc
[09:01] <root__> ubuntu
[09:01] <root__> ola
[09:01] <_SiLENT_> so are there more free alternatives in linux soft to non-free stuff in windos?
[09:01] <root__> xD
[09:01] <kahrytan> Polygon89, Mostly because my media apps use gstreamer
[09:01] <Polygon89> kahrytan, it doesnt remove gstreamer
[09:01] <faileas> root__: you should know better than to irc as root ;)
[09:01] <bobodclown> lo all< having problem with sound in ubuntu, doesnt work sometimes when boot, have to reboot until it works, taking more reboots recently, any dieas? Feisty with a SB live 1024 card
[09:02] <Pie-rate> well shit. i think i may've just found a bug in evolution. i had a recurring event set up to play REALLY LOUD music at 7:30 in the morning, and it just started playing at 12:00 in the morning.
[09:02] <Polygon89> kahrytan, i have totem-xine installed, and exaile uses gstreamer and it still works fine
[09:02] <ward_> ok i'm gonna have to look for an alternative for openoffice, because the GUI is extremely bad
[09:02] <faileas> _SiLENT_: yeah, OOo for MS office etc
[09:02] <punsad> _SiLENT_: there often are alternatives
[09:02] <_SiLENT_> for example, OO is better than M$O?
[09:02] <faileas> ward_ : koffice?
[09:02] <daschl> Has anyone information about the tribe 6 release today???
[09:02] <punsad> _SiLENT_: if you've been an office user for a long time, you might find open office not so good
[09:02] <_SiLENT_> or the same?
[09:02] <_SiLENT_> punsad, why?
[09:02] <kahrytan> Polygon89, I know that
[09:02] <frogzoo> is there any way to set a theme for a kde app that's running in gnome ?
[09:02] <faileas> _SiLENT_: the real question is does OOo do what you want ;)
[09:03] <_SiLENT_> as for Office, I use only basic functions there
[09:03] <punsad> _SiLENT_: because you are so used to office adn the way it works
[09:03] <nanonyme> faileas, never heard
[09:03] <Pie-rate> _SiLENT_: for most people, Openoffice.org is way more than sufficient.
[09:03] <kahrytan> Polygon89, Which is better xine or gstreamer for web media?
[09:03] <Polygon89> daschl, it may be released later today.... but if your impatient install tribe 5 and you'll just update to tribe 6
[09:03] <sauvin> Depends on how "expert" he is with office. I used office for many years and found openoffice actually kinda genial.
[09:03] <Polygon89> kahrytan, i think the embedded firefox media player is mplayer... not sure what that uses
[09:03] <frogzoo> kahrytan: gstreamer is only a plugin, not a player like xine/gxing/mplayer/vlc
[09:03] <kahrytan> it's totem
[09:03] <kahrytan> totem-mozilla
[09:03] <_SiLENT_> I guess the best way to know is to "touch everything with your own hands":)
[09:03] <daschl> Polygon89, well i dont want to try it on my machine i want to know what and if there are new features.. the printing feature description in tribe5 impressed me :>
[09:04] <daschl> Polygon89, and, of course the xorg config tool
[09:04] <faileas> nanonyme: its a bit like a totally scratch built reimplimentation of windows, GPL. unlike windows, its properly documented and open source ;)
[09:04] <kahrytan> what plugin for .mov files?
[09:04] <faileas> nanonyme: www.reactos.org
[09:04] <Polygon89> daschl, the feature freeze was like in tribe 5 so its just bug fixes in tribe 6...
[09:05] <_SiLENT_> but as I have no good internet, I'll have to wait
[09:05] <Geoffrey2> is there any instance I'd want reiserfs instead of ext3?
[09:05] <bobodclown> scratch that, i got it working
[09:05] <punsad> _SiLENT_: do you get charged per kb downloaded/
[09:05] <daschl> Polygon89, oh.. but new artwork may be present :>
[09:05] <sauvin> Geoffrey, reiserfs is said to be a better choice if you have millions of SMALL files.
[09:06] <punsad> _SiLENT_: I used debian with a dialup connection for a while.  it worked fine
[09:06] <bobodclown> If you press ctrl-alt-1 to go into command line, how do you get back to xwin? :)
[09:06] <Polygon89> daschl, well the ubunu devs are human.. they are most likely sleeping and will release today
[09:06] <DJ_Danni> Hello
[09:06] <_SiLENT_> punsad, I get charged per bit :)
[09:06] <xjkx> hi i need lilo to load ubuntu
[09:06] <punsad> it was so cool.. any time I did apt-get install XXX... it would automatically dial up to the ineternet
[09:06] <codeshah> any ruby on rails coders here?
[09:06] <sauvin> .oO(dialup!?)
[09:06] <ward_> faileas, thanx for the tip, i can't even change the damn textcolor in openoffice!
[09:06] <daschl> Polygon89, i know ;) ... but there are different time zones :D .. i thought maybe a wiki page is up but it doesnt matter for now.. thank you :)
[09:06] <kahrytan> xjkx, is there a reason to not use grub?
[09:06] <punsad> _SiLENT_: forget it then... linux requires a lot of data to download
[09:07] <DJ_Danni> I have a Webserver and i have .aspx at my Server but how do i install asp Support? When i try to browser.asp or .aspx i only see the Codes.
[09:07] <punsad> sauvin: I've been using linux since 98
[09:07] <_SiLENT_> punsad, that's what I am talking about, shall wait until I buy that damn sat
[09:07] <punsad> used RedHat 6.1 then switched to debian potato
[09:07] <zoredache> DJ_Danni: aspx is an 'iis' thing
[09:07] <DJ_Danni> Can somone help me with that?
[09:07] <punsad> _SiLENT_: I think so
[09:08] <xjkx> kahrytan, yea i couldnt make slack be added, and now that lilo is installed i dont even know how to grub-install, i ran the livecd but grub-install didnt work, anyway, lilo is installed and i want it  to load
[09:08] <punsad> _SiLENT_: unless you want to spend $$$
[09:08] <zoredache> I don't know of any free 'asp/aspx' tools that you can run on #ubuntu... perhaps someone else does though
[09:08] <DJ_Danni> zoredache what do you mean?
[09:08] <jesson> how can i run .exe file ???
[09:08] <_SiLENT_> sending $$$ is not our way :)
[09:08] <_SiLENT_> *spending
[09:09] <sauvin> That depends on what the .exe is, jesson.
[09:09] <punsad> _SiLENT_: for example... if you do a simple 'apt-get install gnucash' or something like that -- it will want to install all the other packages that are required to make gnucash work
[09:09] <DJ_Danni> zoredache what do you mean?
[09:09] <jesson> its a bot for chat program used for connecting to b.net
[09:09] <zoredache> I mean asp/aspx won't run on apache with software included in ubuntu
[09:09] <punsad> _SiLENT_: wait till you get internet that doesn't charge per bit
[09:09] <_SiLENT_> punsad, does it inform about all downloads?
[09:09] <jesson> when i try to use wine i get an error
[09:09] <overclucker> jesson, for winblows?
[09:10] <aldaek> who are you with that charges per bit?
[09:10] <zoredache> or at least I don't know how
[09:10] <jesson> its a bot for b.net
[09:10] <jesson> starcraft game
[09:10] <punsad> _SiLENT_: yes.. it will show you what needs to be downloaded and ask if you want to proceed
[09:10] <DJ_Danni> zoredache how can i then run asp/aspx?
[09:10] <_SiLENT_> aldaek :) kidding, just really expensive traffic
[09:10] <ninjabooty> I think the free software movement needs their own TLD
[09:10] <ninjabooty> oh wait ... it's .org
[09:10] <ninjabooty> nevermind
[09:10] <zoredache> DJ_Danni: install windows?
[09:10] <ninjabooty> but like ... [dot] oss ... or [dot] free
[09:10] <aldaek> .oss :)
[09:10] <DJ_Danni> nowhay
[09:11] <aldaek> lol
[09:11] <zoredache> or wait until you find someone who knows more about it then I do
[09:11] <xjkx> why noone knows how to add ubuntu to lilo?
[09:11] <jesson> anyone?? how can i run .exe application ??
[09:11] <DJ_Danni> ok
[09:11] <punsad> xjkx: lilo is old
[09:11] <_SiLENT_> OK, thank you guys for useful info
[09:11] <punsad> jesson: wine
[09:11] <aldaek> wine... or a few other applications that mimic windows
[09:11] <aldaek> or install windows in a vm
[09:11] <jesson> ok punsad ill paste the error i get when i use wine
[09:11] <xjkx> punsad, i have the latest version of it, if they didnt develop anything newer is because it is not needed
[09:11] <_SiLENT_> I hope to kill M$ in my computer soon :)
[09:12] <aldaek> lol
[09:12] <punsad> _SiLENT_: if you have the time and patience, it can be done
[09:12] <_SiLENT_> punsad, thanx
[09:12] <_SiLENT_> have a nice time
[09:12] <_SiLENT_> bye
[09:12] <jesson> err:module:import_dll Library MSVBVM60.DLL (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\jesson\\bot\\eternalchat.exe") not found
[09:13] <punsad> _SiLENT_: you too.
[09:13] <jesson> err:module:import_dll Library MSVBVM60.DLL (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\jesson\\bot\\eternalchat.exe") not found
[09:13] <jesson>    thats wat i get when i use wine

[09:15] <andruk> the prop. nvidia driver does not work under any install method (ubuntu's installer, envy, using bin blob from nvidia, or automatix - all on a fresh install).  it may be a hardware issue, i am not sure.  (XFX Geforce 7600 GT, I have used appropriate versions of the driver, etc).  my machine reboots and freezes after loading gnome completely.  is there a way i can see what is going wrong?
[09:15] <jesson> and where shud i put that?? after i download it?
[09:15] <ninjabooty> how's ubuntu with installing dependancies?
[09:15] <NemesisD> anyone know how i would find out what the default system font is for ubuntu? specifically i need to figure out what font the update manager is using
[09:15] <ahoj23> hey everyone. can someone spare a few minutes to help me get java to work on kubuntu edgy?
[09:15] <aldaek> doesnt say where
[09:15] <Nutter-Tools> http://www.funzu.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1566&Itemid=49
[09:15] <Creed> jesson, the same folder as the .exe should make wine pick it up
[09:16] <jesson> ok let me try
[09:16] <Creed> jesson, if not then google for "visual basic libraries wine"
[09:16] <aldaek> for wine.. the c:/windows/system32 folder
[09:16] <andruk> NemesisD: Sans, Sans Bold, and monospace is what my machine is (i havent changed it fro default).  do you want more info?
[09:16] <aldaek> whatever wine has configured for that
[09:16] <bobodclown> NemesisD: it might say in System>Perferences>Font
[09:16] <Montaro> for a once off fix, just dump it in Z:\\home\\jesson\\bot\\
[09:16] <andruk> *from
[09:16] <NemesisD> andruk, i havent change anything else so its probably the same
[09:17] <Pie-rate> this is really quite annoying. i never set evolution to annoy me at midnight, but its alarm went off at the wrong time.
[09:17] <jesson> dumpt it?? u how? can u explain further
[09:17] <overclucker> jesson, you can get the dll at http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvbvm60
[09:17] <xjkx> hi i want to add ubuntu to lilo, please read http://www.pastebin.ca/685209
[09:17] <Montaro> extract the file, copy it, whatever you want to call it
[09:17] <Creed> jesson, lol he just meant stick it in the same folder as the eternal.exe file
[09:17] <mike6546> when i try to install windows xp in qemu it says "Line 1 of the inf file \i386\txtsetup.sif is invalid
[09:17] <andruk> NemesisD: for applications, documents, and desktop: sans; for window titles: sans bold; for fixed with font: monospace
[09:17] <mike6546> how do i fix it?
[09:18] <co_bi_sala3> Dim4s_co0L
[09:18] <jesson> i C let me try then
[09:18] <NemesisD> andruk, alright, thanks :)
[09:18] <ninjabooty> what's a good unix for capitalists?
[09:18] <overclucker> xjkx, is /boot/boot correct?
[09:18] <andruk> NemesisD: np
[09:18] <Nutter-Tools> mike6546 what if you crate an unattended install so it by passes that .sif
[09:19] <andruk> ninjabooty: mac.  period.
[09:19] <aldaek> any in bed with MS... j/k
[09:19] <Montaro> mike6546: http://www.wahlau.org/windows_xp_under_qemu_with_ubuntu_breezy .. i know its breezy but it should still pass
[09:19] <mike6546> how do i do that?
[09:19] <ninjabooty> you can make money with things using a bsd style license right?
[09:19] <xjkx> yea /boot has the boot of slackware, the one lilo.conf is, /boot/boot is the /boot of ubuntu that i copied
[09:19] <ahoj23> i'm sorry, can anyone help me with getting jre to work under kubuntu edgy, please?
[09:19] <Nutter-Tools> mike in xp folder is deploy.cab unzip that file and use setupmgr.exe
[09:19] <jesson> can someone tell me wat does Compiling and Installing WineCVS with WineTools do
[09:19] <xjkx> overclucker.
[09:19] <Pie-rate> ninjabooty: you can make money with linux. you sell services, not software.
[09:19] <Creed> ahoj23, tried the .bin installer from Java website?
[09:20] <ninjabooty> so if I make a game for OSS, it's has to be a MMORPG that I charge for?
[09:20] <ahoj23> Creed, I think I did...it didn't work, iirc
[09:20] <ahoj23> but let me try it another time
[09:20] <overclucker> xjkx, why don't you just give ubuntu it's own partition?
[09:20] <Pie-rate> ninjabooty: you don't HAVE to license your game under the GPL
[09:20] <ninjabooty> ah
[09:21] <zcat[1] > Is there any software in ubuntu that will even try to read or write ooxlm files? (like .docx) -- obviously nothing in the standard repos, and I can't find anything on google either
[09:21] <andruk> computer is locking up after installing proprietary nvidia driver.  what log files can i check to see what going on?
[09:21] <xjkx> overclucker, ubuntu has its own partition, hda5
[09:21] <Pie-rate> ninjabooty: furthermore, you can even sell the service of burning a CD
[09:21] <aldaek> just that if you add any gpl based software into your program... then you might want to read the gpl about it
[09:21] <Creed> ninjabooty, if you use any GPL'ed code then you have to release that code.
[09:21] <Pie-rate> ninjabooty: if you wanted to, you could box up ubuntu and put it on a retail shelf for $200 right next to the $250 Windows CD.
[09:21] <ahoj23> Creed, I remember now...I did this on my laptop, but couldn't get it to work on this pc. I remember just getting a package named ubuntu-essentials or something in the like
[09:22] <Baktaah> Anyone with a Intel N wireless, and nvidia 8600m card, that managed to get ubuntu to work?
[09:22] <rrichie> hi
[09:22] <Pie-rate> ninjabooty: you just have to distribute the source code as well.
[09:22] <aldaek> s/laptop/notebook
[09:22] <Creed> ahoj23, Automatix also has Java as well as plugins for it for Firefox, give that a shot :)
[09:22] <zcat[1] > ummm.. there's plenty of non-free software for linux.. never been an issue with that! Lots of completely propriatory games and stuff.
[09:22] <mike6546> how do i bypass the .sif?
[09:22] <Pie-rate> !automatix | ahoj23
[09:22] <ubotu> ahoj23: 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)
[09:22] <Creed> The unreal series for one :)
[09:22] <aldaek> where are the good proprietary games for linux?
[09:22] <rrichie> when i apt-get upgrade it says : no such file or directory during the process. can anyone help me ?
[09:22] <Pie-rate> Creed: automatix is bad.
[09:22] <ahoj23> Creed, ah, thank you
[09:23] <Pie-rate> ahoj23: automatix is bad.
[09:23] <aldaek> why?
[09:23] <Creed> If it works for people it works, if it breaks they learn not to use it anymore
[09:23] <Montaro> it just is.
[09:23] <Pie-rate> ahoj23: you can get Java and the Java plugins from apt-get
[09:23] <zcat[1] > Nothing stops you from writing completely propriatory stuff for Linux, you just have to write or buy everything yourself, you can't use existing GPL stuff if you don't want to share the result under the same terms
[09:23] <ahoj23> I can?
[09:23] <Pie-rate> Creed: if it breaks their install, they have to reinstall if they don't know how to troubleshoot the problems it causes.
[09:23] <andruk> computer is locking up after installing proprietary nvidia driver.  what log files can i check to see what going on?
[09:23] <ninjabooty> what's OpenGL?
[09:24] <overclucker> xjkx, a full lilo.conf would be nice
[09:24] <Pie-rate> ahoj23: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin
[09:24] <Sevk> OPENGL FOR LINUX IT IS FREE
[09:24] <ahoj23> Pie-rate: merci, I'll try that
[09:24] <Creed> whoa, a floaty comma
[09:24] <Sevk> DIRECT-X FOR WINDOWS
[09:24] <aldaek> one of the terminals gives a log on bootup... f6 i think... ctrl + f6/
[09:24] <aldaek> ?
[09:24] <mike6546> nutter-tools: check you pm
[09:24] <Baktaah> Anyone with a Intel N wireless, and nvidia 8600m card, that managed to get ubuntu to work?
[09:25] <zcat[1] > Anybody answer my question.. what software is available for Linux that will do stuff with .docx or other ooxml files..?
[09:25] <xjkx> overclucker, its the only part that actually matters :> the other things are slackware loading and win98
[09:25] <aldaek> baktaah, work on the wireless first.. if necessary, you may have to use your wired network for the downloading of files...
[09:25] <aldaek> then work on nvidia
[09:25] <Nutter-Tools> mike6546 didnt get anything... make sure u registered with freenode, otherwise you cant private message
[09:26] <Pie-rate> ninjabooty: OpenGL stands for Open Graphics Library. It's like Direct-X. Basically it's a cross-platform (windows, linux, mac, xbox if you want to hack it, whatever) library that allows programmers to write 3d graphical programs.
[09:26] <Baktaah> aldaek I have tried both, cant get the wireless work in feisty, but in gutsy I can get the 2d to work
[09:26] <mike6546> how do i bypass .sif?
[09:26] <mike6546> like you said
[09:26] <overclucker> xjkx, what happens when you try to boot ubuntu?
[09:26] <xjkx> overclucker, my guess is that ubuntu needs to be chainloaded, it has a chainload +1 in grub, but on lilo, when you loader= like in chainload, there is no +1, they expect you to put a device i think, then its just crazy
[09:26] <Pie-rate> xjkx: try booting an ubuntu iso from qemu
[09:26] <xjkx> it opens some safebox or something
[09:27] <ninjabooty> gcc -o opengl_app.c woot -ogl :D
[09:27] <teKnofreak> zcat[1] , 00xml ?
[09:27] <ninjabooty> I <3 ogl
[09:27] <teKnofreak> i thought they voted against ooxml :-?
[09:27] <zcat[1] > teKnofreak, yeah, apparently it's crossplatform and widely supported...
[09:27] <andruk> zcat[1] : if nobody has answered your question then nobody probably knows.  i for one would refrain from using a format that is not official, but i do sympathize with those who are forced to do so.
[09:27] <ahoj23> Pie-rate, thanks, it works now, yymd!
[09:27] <xjkx> Pie-rate, why would i want to do that
[09:27] <Nutter-Tools> mike6546 - find deploy.cab in winxp cd, uncompress it and run setupmgr.. it will guide you step by step to creating unattended answer file, then it will tell you to paste it in place of the old files
[09:28] <Pie-rate> xjkx: to test that its windows thats broken and not QEMU?
[09:28] <Pie-rate> xjkx: are you sure your XP disc is good?
[09:28] <ninjabooty> I just want to make a sim city clone that doesn't suck
[09:28] <teKnofreak> zcat[1] , crossplatform ? LOL.. widely supported ? LOL
[09:28] <Nutter-Tools> mike6546 - if you need more details the #windows room is very helpful
[09:28] <xjkx> Pie-rate, i believe i am not the one you think i am, i dont even have winxp
[09:29] <Pie-rate> xjkx: oh
[09:29] <teKnofreak> ninjabooty, changing the rules of nature is soo bad ;)
[09:29] <mike6546> hmm
[09:29] <andruk> zcat[1] : i would double check your arguments for using ooxml...it seems that it is not quite as good as hoped
[09:29] <ninjabooty> I want to learn Core ASM
[09:29] <ninjabooty> :(
[09:29] <mike6546> i googled it and it looks like this error is related to creating your own custom xp install cds
[09:29] <Pie-rate> xjkx: i'm tired, fscking evolution decided to wake me up with the alarm that was meant to go off at 7:30 for no reason whatsoever.
[09:29] <ninjabooty> and NVASM
[09:29] <mike6546> but this is default cd
[09:30] <overclucker> xjkx, do you have any real reason for sticking with lilo, or is it just loyalty?
[09:30] <zcat[1] > andruk, Advice from Groklaw was to go ahead and give it a try, and write up any problems or incompatablities.... that's what I'm trying to do!
[09:30] <Nutter-Tools> mike6546 - yea its another option thats all, since you saaid your .sif file throws an error
[09:31] <zcat[1] > so problem #1, finding software under Linux that even pretends to have made a half-assed effort to handle ooxml..
[09:31] <andruk> zcat[1] : ah.  then document away my friend.
[09:31] <andruk> wait...why should anybody try to use ooxml if it isnt standard?
[09:31] <Tijn> what is a common directory to extract my apps to?
[09:31] <ninjabooty> it's ooxml just microsoft trying to ugh ... mess with sweden?
[09:31] <Pie-rate> zcat[1] : why the hell would anyone want to handle ooxml?
[09:32] <ninjabooty> "The nice thing about standards is that there is so many of them to choose from"

[09:32] <xjkx> overclucker, i have, i couldnt make grub load slackware, then i rly needed slackware to load THAT time, and i reinstalled slack and then chose lilo to be installed, now i dont want to reinstall ubuntu and have grub and try again to make it load slackware, i think the coolest way is to make ubuntu be loaded by lilo
[09:33] <andruk> is there a quick way to fix grub?  (that is put out by ubuntu?)
[09:34] <nanonyme> only if you know what's wrong?
[09:34] <andruk> ah, so theres no way to simply resintall grub, have it scan the disks for bootable partitions, and generate its own menu.list?
[09:35] <overclucker> xjkx, i have no clue wether or not ubuntu needs to chainload  = (
[09:35] <overclucker> andruk supergrub
[09:36] <xjkx> overclucker, checkout /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:36] <andruk> overclucker: ah, thanks.
[09:38] <overclucker> xjkx, it appears at some point i installed it on an extra disk, and no chainloader option
[09:38] <xjkx> i will try to run livecd and install grub again
[09:38] <xjkx> be right back
[09:40] <ninjabooty> is there an open web browser plugin that does the same thing as Flash?

[09:47] <chuy_max> codeshah: apt-get remove nginx

[10:32] <Keule|On> hi there
[10:32] <Keule|On> how can i start the xserver setup... my gui crashed
[10:33] <gogeta> knoe something funny
[10:33] <gogeta> my sound cord works better in linux
[10:33] <gogeta> card
[10:33] <Xander> im as real as jesus
[10:33] <gogeta> keula startx
[10:33] <zcat[1] > gogeta, I have a whole BOX of cards (sound, network, TV tuner, etc..) that ONLY work in Linux..
[10:34] <beni> should I switch of the .bash_history feature of my server or not? I mean its often used maliciously to gather information isn't it?
[10:34] <gogeta> mine works better lol
 dpkg --reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:34] <gogeta> it sees my amp bord windows doesent
 sorry, it's this: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:34] <zippy_> beni, no point...really its just history of previously executed commands
[10:34] <Xenu> that just may be about the dumbest BS ive heard Zcat. Where do you buy your hardware? Did you design it yourself?
[10:34] <gogeta> he said it crashed he asked how to restart it
[10:35] <zcat[1] > heaps of older hardware only works in Linux, because they never bothered to update the drivers or the company went out of business and you just can't find drivers for windows any more..
[10:35] <gogeta> lol not reconfigure
[10:35] <Extravert> w00t w00t w00t
[10:35] <beni> zcat[1] : ack
[10:35] <zcat[1] > .. and plenty of new hardware works ootb in Linux, but needs drivers for windows
[10:35] <zippy_> zcat, you can run them on freedos, which aint linux ;)
[10:36] <zcat[1] > run what on freedos?
[10:36] <Xenu> If its that old why don't you just spend $50 for some old POS and have twice the power?
[10:36] <zippy_> zcat, you obselete hardware
[10:36] <zippy_> your*
[10:36] <Xenu> Or better yet why dont you just throw some trash out of your house.
[10:36] <Keule|On> chuy_max : my linux tells me - that xserver isnt installed?
[10:37] <zcat[1] > Why throw stuff away if it still works perfectly well?
[10:37] <Keule|On> and i typed sudo dpkg.... in
[10:37] <Evanlec> how can GRUB still exist after i've installed windows vista partition taking the whole drive and running FIXMBR ??
[10:37] <zippy_> good point, i love deprecated hardware :)
[10:37] <Xenu> Because its worthless. What function does it serve you?
[10:37] <overclucker> Xenu, hey! i cherish my trash
[10:37] <m_> how do i install vmware server in ubuntu x64
[10:37] <Frogzoo> Evanlec: cos it's harding on your 2nd drive
[10:37] <Flannel> !grub | Evanlec
[10:37] <ubotu> Evanlec: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:37] <Evanlec> Frogzoo, 2nd drive is disconnected
[10:37] <zcat[1] > I have no money. Free hardware that's a little old is much better than no hardware at all
[10:37] <chuy_max> Keule|On xserver-xorg ?
[10:37] <Xenu> I took an apple IIe box and put a P3 back when they came out and I thought I was lame.
[10:38] <Flannel> Evanlec: oh, sorry.  I'll stop misreading your questions.
[10:38] <Keule|On> oh thanx!
[10:38] <Frogzoo> Evanlec: then you didn't delete grub I guess
[10:38] <zevah> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[10:38] <Xenu> Zcat I can only have hope in that youre under the age of 15 and cannot get a job.
[10:38] <Evanlec> Frogzoo, i guess not, everytime i boot up, right before windows splash screen i see some grub text display quickly
[10:38] <Keule|On> is nv an abriviation for nvidia in the setup?
[10:38] <nanonyme> meh, you can still have 0 budget for computers if you have a job
[10:39] <Evanlec> Frogzoo, which wouldnt be a problem, except that last time i installed ubuntu on my 2nd drive, windows wouldnt boot up anymore
[10:39] <gogeta> LOL
[10:39] <SlimeyPete> Keule|On: nv is he name of the open-source nvidia driver
[10:39] <Keule|On> is nv an abriviation for nvidia in the setup?
[10:39] <Keule|On> ok
[10:39] <Keule|On> so its nvidia
[10:39] <zippy_> Keule, yes, nv are the drivers implemented by the folk at xorg,
[10:39] <SlimeyPete> yeah
[10:39] <Evanlec> Keule|On, dont even try the nvidia option ;p
[10:39] <Keule|On> good so i have an nv - card - and i take this )
[10:39] <overclucker> xenu, there is a place for people like u: ##windows
[10:40] <Keule|On> what? Evanlec =?
[10:40] <Keule|On> i dont get you
[10:40] <Evanlec> Keule|On, im saying, dont use the "nvidia" driver in the xorg config
[10:40] <Evanlec> i tried it before, dont work
[10:40] <zippy_> Keula, if you want support for 3D Acceleration, OPenGL and all the useless crap .. i suggest you install rthe "nvidia" drivers
[10:40] <SlimeyPete> Keule|On: there is "nv" and "nvidia" - "nv" is the one you want to start wih.
[10:40] <Evanlec> use nv instead
[10:40] <SlimeyPete> during setup it's the only one available anyway
[10:41] <Evanlec> yea what SlimeyPete said
[10:41] <SlimeyPete> so... yes, you've selected the right option, go for it :)
[10:41] <Evanlec> afterwards u can install the nvidia drivers
[10:41] <Keule|On>  i dont have nvdia in my xserver options
[10:41] <Evanlec> ok well then forget about it
[10:41] <zippy_> nvidia is not implemented by xorg
[10:41] <zcat[1] > 'nv' is the opensource driver, it always works, but doesn't have 3d. 'nvidia' is the binary-only driver that does 3d, but will only work if all your libraries are compatable, you have a supported card, and the moon is in the correct phase..
[10:41] <SlimeyPete> yeah, you won't do. You have to install it later if you want it. Choose "nv" for now - it should work fine :)
[10:41] <Evanlec> lol zcat[1] 
[10:42] <zippy_> or you can use "vesa"
[10:42] <zippy_> i think
[10:42] <Evanlec> how can GRUB still exist after i've installed windows vista partition taking the whole drive and running FIXMBR ??
[10:42] <zevah> hiiiiiiiiiiii
[10:42] <zevah> hello
[10:42] <dunnowatname> :( xubuntu is slow
[10:42] <Keule|On> thanx
[10:42] <SlimeyPete> zippy_: you can, but it's not a good idea unless you're desperate
[10:42] <Keule|On> i hope it will work
[10:42] <snoop> hi
[10:43] <zippy_> SlimpeyPete, yea just throwing out random options lol..
[10:43] <overclucker> dunnowatname, xubuntu is less taxing than gome based
[10:43] <zcat[1] > I think vesa would work.. but nv should work better
[10:43] <overclucker> *gnome
[10:43] <jarnos> dunnowatname, do you know a faster option?
[10:43] <AdvoWork> hi there, does this: chgrp filter /opt/zimbra/postfix/conf/disclaimer chmod 750 /opt/zimbra/postfix/conf/disclaimer  basically set the user filter to have permisson to run the disclaimer file?
[10:44] <zippy_> !chmod > AdvoWork
[10:44] <aleix> does anyone know if there is a particular channel to talk about dhcpd server?
[10:45] <zippy_> aleix, in particular ?.. setting up a dhcp connection?
[10:45] <zcat[1] > aleix, I've set up dhcp servers once or twice...
[10:45] <aleix> i need to know how to log request from all clients and ip given
[10:46] <zcat[1] > aleix, dhcp keeps a lease file somewhere, can't rememebr where off the top of my head. I think it also logs them to /var/log/messages when it hands them out
[10:47] <aleix> yes, the dhcpd.leases file i know where it is and it is fine, as long as you have not defined hosts on your dhcpd.conf... these are not log into the leases file...
[10:48] <aleix> i found it... my mistake... it goes to local7 log facility... thanks anyway!
[10:48] <zcat[1] > aleix, cool, glad to help :)

[11:15] <kornerr> i do exactly this ^^^
[11:15] <savvas> oh :)
[11:15] <gogeta> so you borked your apy list
[11:15] <gogeta> LOL
[11:15] <TheZanke> Goodnight(morning) #ubuntu!
[11:16] <kornerr> no
[11:16] <kornerr> there's some stupid thing about ubuntu
[11:16] <kornerr> i don't get what it is
[11:16] <gogeta> you broke it
[11:16] <gogeta> LOL
[11:16] <kornerr> no i didn't
[11:16] <kornerr> stop loling
[11:16] <gogeta> LOL!!!!!
[11:16] <kornerr> stupid
[11:16] <savvas> uh.. kornerr people usually use "aptoncd" to backup their packages
[11:17] <gogeta> best bet is to set everything back to defult and add your cd threw the gui
[11:17] <kornerr> i have dvds as isos
[11:17] <gogeta> soo
[11:17] <gogeta> just mont em first
[11:17] <kornerr> and mounted to /media/UbuntuRep/d{1,2,3,4}
[11:17] <gogeta> and add em
[11:17] <kornerr> and so i don't want to burn them
[11:18] <savvas> hm..
[11:18] <kornerr> it can't add them
[11:18] <gogeta> i said mount them
[11:18] <kornerr> i tried
[11:18] <kornerr> it said it's not cdrom
[11:18] <gogeta> then it will see it as a dvd
[11:18] <kornerr> heh
[11:18] <savvas> kornerr: I think there's a glitch here, I tried alternate upgrade with a mount in /media/ too, which couldn't detect the packages
[11:18] <gogeta> you mount the iso using loopback
[11:19] <kornerr> i know
[11:19] <kornerr> i did already
[11:19] <gogeta> then add it
[11:19] <savvas> kornerr: have you tried to burn the dvds on rewriteable media?
[11:19] <gogeta> the installer whent knoe the diffrence
[11:19] <kornerr> it can't add
[11:19] <kornerr> it says IT"S NOT CDROM
[11:19] <gogeta> then  you didnt mount it is a standerd isp
[11:19] <gogeta> iso\
[11:19] <savvas> gogeta: actually it does :) I already tried and it barks for some installations
[11:20] <kornerr> :/
[11:20] <gogeta> oh
[11:20] <gogeta> never did befor
[11:20] <kornerr> what do you mean std iso?
[11:20] <gogeta> standerd
[11:20] <kornerr> mount -o loop iso /mnt/d1
[11:20] <kornerr> isn't that std?
[11:21] <gogeta> mount myiso.iso /mnt/iso/ -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0
[11:21] <UNDERsoN> What name of package for GUI VPN client
[11:21] <kornerr> it's mounted
[11:21] <kornerr> how do i add it?
[11:21] <kornerr> apt-cdrom add doesn't do it
[11:21] <gogeta> should see it as a cd
[11:22] <kornerr> hm
[11:22] <kornerr> as a cd...
[11:22] <gogeta> doesent matter
[11:22] <gogeta> lol
[11:22] <gogeta> a cd with 4.6 gigs of storage
[11:22] <gogeta> lol
[11:22] <kornerr> it only says 'insert cdrom'
[11:22] <gogeta> i say bug
[11:22] <kornerr> what bug?
[11:23] <gogeta> it should see it as a insterted cd rom
[11:23] <gogeta> unless it looks elsewhere
[11:24] <kornerr> df -hT: /media/windata/ISOs2/Ubuntu Feisty 7.04/7_04_dvd4.iso
[11:24] <kornerr>            iso9660    3,2G  3,2G     0 100% /media/UbuntuRep/d4
[11:24] <gogeta> have you tryed mounting it to media cdrom0
[11:24] <gogeta> trick it into thinking its in your real drive
[11:25] <kornerr> but that doesn't solve anything
[11:25] <kornerr> atp-cdrom that is
[11:25] <kornerr> however it works
[11:25] <gogeta> if it looks tere it does
[11:25] <kornerr> i need all 4 dvds at once
[11:25] <gogeta> there
[11:25] <kornerr> cuz packages are on all 4
[11:25] <kornerr> so each requires another
[11:25] <gogeta> well if that works thats 1 step salved
[11:26] <kornerr> lol
[11:26] <kornerr> it won't be able to install
[11:26] <fop> hello
[11:26] <gogeta> have you tryed making cdrom 1 2 3 4 in the mdea dire and mounting there
[11:26] <savvas> you could merge them i think
[11:26] <fop> i have a quick question for anybody willing to help me
[11:26] <kornerr> hm
[11:26] <gogeta> i bet it looks in meda dir
[11:26] <kornerr> savvas: how?
[11:27] <Frogzoo> fop: congratulations
[11:27] <gogeta> cdrom1 and so on and mounting there
[11:27] <fop> jee thanks
[11:27] <kornerr> :/
[11:27] <kornerr> hm
[11:27] <fop> anyone know how to move the garbage bin to the dektop?
[11:28] <gogeta> or you can make a script to swap out the isos on cdrom 0
[11:28] <gogeta> when you need to change
[11:28] <Frogzoo> fop: it's a metacity option within gnome editor
[11:28] <kornerr> wait, lemme check if that works
[11:29] <erUSUL> fop: open the gconf-editor and go to the nautilus section
[11:29] <Frogzoo> erUSUL: nautilus not metacity? ok
[11:30] <erUSUL> Frogzoo: yep
[11:30] <gogeta> they dont always need to be in the drive anyways only when your using them
[11:30] <savvas> fop: yes, you make a launcher for trash:
[11:30] <erUSUL> fop: go to  apps>nautilus>desktop and  check trash_icon_visible
[11:30] <zevah> hii
[11:31] <fop_> kk
[11:32] <kornerr> nah, doesn't work
[11:32] <gogeta> so cdrom0 is the only working one
[11:33] <gogeta> it has to only look at real drives in the script
[11:33] <hendo> cant download vmplayer why
[11:33] <gogeta> only thing i can think of
[11:33] <kornerr> i need a help with rep
[11:33] <kornerr> that is the only solution
[11:34] <gogeta> well if cdrom0 works you can just swap the isos as nedded
[11:34] <hendo> i downloaded vmplayer wont open
[11:36] <hendo> i have me windows on my ide harddrive and i want to run it in unbuntu
[11:37] <kornerr> hendo: use virtual box
[11:37] <erUSUL> !vmware | hendo
[11:37] <ubotu> hendo: 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
[11:37] <gogeta> kormerr you try a tools called aptoncd
[11:37] <hendo> okay
[11:37] <Morten_> !ifort
[11:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ifort - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:37] <gogeta> http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2007/04/create-backup-of-installed-packages.html
[11:38] <gogeta> that tool adds respo disk
[11:38] <realnewguy> hey guys im trying to dl a torrent using bitornado, ive also just tried azureus and the default bitorrent client, but im getting "problem connecting to tracker - (111, 'connection refused') how do i solve this?

[11:42] <Ornedan> What system does Ubuntu use for hibernation?
[11:45] <gogeta> komerr hears a guide
[11:45] <gogeta> http://www.howtoforge.com/dvd_images_of_ubuntu_repositories
[11:46] <slapfaceware> should i install install cd or alternate cd
[11:46] <kornerr> crap
[11:47] <kornerr> it asks for cdrom too
[11:47] <kornerr> and when i try to use iso
[11:47] <gogeta> try that guide
[11:47] <gogeta> it shows everything from building to adding them
[11:47] <booster> hey guys.....im new to linux...can anyone tell me how to change a Usplash screen,.....if so what  kind of files should i be looking for??
[11:47] <__ZiGgy__> How do i unzip ????
[11:47] <nbkr> slapfaceware, Depends on your system. If it is able to run the install (live) cd that us that one.
[11:48] <erUSUL> __ZiGgy__: unzip file.zip or use file-roller
[11:48] <slapfaceware> nbkr, so which one should i get
[11:48] <Frogzoo> booster: first install gnome-art
[11:48] <nbkr> slapfaceware, How shall I know what your what system you have?
[11:48] <Frogzoo> booster: then sys -> admin -> login
[11:49] <slapfaceware> nbkr, it's just normal 4 year old pc
[11:49] <__ZiGgy__> so just install  file-roller
[11:49] <nbkr> slapfaceware, Then I would give a try to the normal install cd.
[11:49] <erUSUL> __ZiGgy__: or use unzip from command line
[11:49] <kornerr> no
[11:49] <slapfaceware> of which
[11:49] <kornerr> nothing about iso
[11:49] <slapfaceware> nbkr, which one should i get
[11:49] <__ZiGgy__> don't know the command lines yet still new to linux
[11:50] <nbkr> booster, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto
[11:50] <slapfaceware> desktop iso or alternat
[11:50] <nbkr> slapfaceware, As I that the normal install CD - thats the Destkop ISO.
[11:50] <__ZiGgy__> i guess it keeps on saying error occurred during the unzipping
[11:50] <gogeta> mkisofs -f -J -r -o ubuntu-dvd-0.iso ubuntu-dvd/ubuntu0
[11:50] <Morten_> Hey, anyone tried to INstall Intel Fortran Compiler on ubuntu 7.04?
[11:51] <gogeta> to build a iso
[11:51] <__ZiGgy__> n/m man i'll try downloading somthing els and see if it fixes the problem
[11:51] <gogeta> humm
[11:51] <gogeta> but you have nion working isos
[11:51] <kornerr> wait
[11:51] <kornerr> i'll try to redo the things again
[11:52] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi
[11:53] <booster> hey can anyone tell me what the command is to run as root ???
[11:53] <kornerr> sudo -i
[11:54] <Frogzoo> booster: why do you need to run as root? just use sudo
[11:54] <slapfaceware> what's wrong run as root?
[11:54] <Frogzoo> slapfaceware: running as root with trip you up, sooner or later
[11:55] <slapfaceware> why
[11:55] <slapfaceware> how
[11:55] <booster> im trying to learnmy way around the terminal...and i wanna know some of the basic commands.....to instll apps
[11:55] <slapfaceware> will running as root with trip you up too?
[11:55] <slapfaceware> or just me
[11:55] <Frogzoo> slapfaceware: some combinations of 'rm' & shell expansions can be unfortunate
[11:56] <slapfaceware> so?
[11:56] <slapfaceware> i still don't see how they are related
[11:56] <Frogzoo> slapfaceware: root powers should only be used when absolutely necessary
[11:57] <slapfaceware> define absolutely necessary here
[11:57] <Textbook> when nothing else works
[11:57] <slapfaceware> also, when you say root power, do you mean sudo, su, or both?
[11:57] <Textbook> use it as a last resort is what he's saying
[11:58] <nbkr> slapfaceware, Systemadministration tasks. Things that a normal user is not allowed to do.
[11:58] <aztec13> file:///home/aztec13/TerminalCommands.pers
[11:58] <bl4val> how do i access a shared ubuntu folder from Vista? it' tells me to type a username and password but i don't know them.
[11:58] <slapfaceware> does sudo give you root power? does su give you root power?
[11:58] <nbkr> bl4val, Share? What kind of Share? NFS, SMB?
[11:59] <Textbook> slapfaceware: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudo
[11:59] <bl4val> nbkr: SMB
[11:59] <aztec13> xkill Kills a running program exit Exits the terminal reboot Reboots the system halt Shutsdown the computer startx Starts xwindows from terminal man man(command)shows help files info info(command) shows help files --help (command)--help shows help files su Allow you to login as Super User
[11:59] <aztec13> ls "Lists" the contents of the directory pwd Displays "present working directory" cd cd (name) change directory TO:(name) mkdir mkdir (name) Makes new directory rmdir rmdir (name) Removes directory clear Clears the terminal window
[11:59] <nbkr> bl4val, Try the login credentials of the user that created the shared folder on gnome.
[11:59] <slapfaceware> i'm trying to figure out the difference between su and sudo here, and why and why not one should be used
[11:59] <slapfaceware> and whatnot
[12:00] <bl4val> nbkr:  i did, and i also tried root.
[12:00] <aztec13> goto off topic
[12:00] <nbkr> slapfaceware, sudo runs a command as root and exists after the command is run.
[12:00] <aztec13> not u sorry
[12:00] <SlimeyPete> slapfaceware: su puts you into a root shell, sudo just temporarily gives root permissions whilst you're running a given process
[12:00] <Frogzoo> bl4val: create a samba passwd for your user 'sudo smbpasswd bl4val'
[12:00] <SlimeyPete> they give you the same perms.
[12:01] <nbkr> slapfaceware, su is used to change permantely to root - without the need to logout and login again.
[12:01] <slapfaceware> so su is quite good, why sudo
[12:01] <Tomcat_> !rootsudo
[12:01] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:01] <Frogzoo> sudo answers some of the weaknesses of su
[12:01] <booster> ok quik question...after downloading a package  to my desktop what are the steps to install it???
[12:02] <bl4val> Frogzoo: sudo: sambapasswd: command not found
[12:02] <Frogzoo> 4 why sudo > su c google
[12:02] <zorg_the_false> q. i got a .deb available in a website and would to advice my user on how to install it easily, is there a way to get apt-get or dpkg to read the .deb directly from the http server, instead of first doing wget and then dpkg ?
[12:02] <Frogzoo> bl4val: create a samba passwd for your user 'sudo smbpasswd bl4val'
[12:02] <nbkr> slapfaceware, Let me make an comparssion. Imagine you have a door to a safe. You can open the door, pass it, and afterwards it closes itself. Thats the way sudo works.
[12:02] <nanonyme> sudo is also nice because you can define that user A can run program 1 with privileges X and program 2 with privileges Z
[12:03] <nbkr> slapfaceware, su is like opening the door, locking it, so it can't close it self.
[12:03] <Safe_> how did one write to change the permissions on a dir from root to everybody?
[12:03] <nanonyme> instead of as superuser
[12:03] <bl4val> Frogzoo: now it's working :D
[12:03] <slapfaceware> with su im in shell, can i not type exit to leave the room?
[12:03] <zorg_the_false> Safe_: chmod a+w /mydirname
[12:03] <bl4val> Frogzoo: but i dont need to type in the password when i connect from vista. whats the password for then?
[12:04] <Safe_> zorg_the_false, thanks big time-
[12:04] <zorg_the_false> Safe_: no problem
[12:04] <nbkr> slapfaceware, so you can use su if you need root previlegdes for a longer time. sudo is for one time usage. Thats one different between sudo and su. But there are others. Like it is possible to have a normal user run a command as root without allowing him to do everything root can do
[12:04] <hgamoue> yes
[12:06] <slapfaceware> what things su can do and sudo cannot?
[12:07] <Morten_> Hey, Ive just installed the Intel Fortran Compiler. But how do I use it now? -- At my school, we just type "ifort -o xx.f90 xx.x" but ifort does not exist is says
[12:07] <Morten_> is = it
[12:07] <nbkr> slapfaceware, do as if you logged in as root.
[12:08] <Safe_> zorg_the_false, hm, can i make it recursive as well?
[12:08] <Morten_> .
[12:08] <zorg_the_false> Safe_: sure chmod -R a+w /mydirname
[12:08] <nbkr> Morten_, What fortran compiler did you install gfortran ?
[12:08] <Morten_> Intel Fortran Compiler
[12:08] <nbkr> Morten_, or g77 ?
[12:08] <savvas> my hard disk and dvd-rw drive are detected in bios and windows xp, but in ubuntu not. what's wrong? they're not listed in /dev/
[12:09] <Morten_> nbkr: uhm, I downloaded it from intels page
[12:09] <nbkr> Morten_, Ok, and after downloading? What did you do?
[12:09] <zhanx> anyonre know where the codecs for vlc are kept so i can try to get nsv working, also can xmms do video or just audio?
[12:09] <aztec13> i just put firestarter in and im just going through the wizard and as im googling around i see it has alot of P2P set up advice and it ties into a certain server caz its the same ip in each tutorial,now that i put in firestarter does it do anything to my ability to grab torrents/files from frostwire or do i have to set it up for it ?
[12:09] <nbkr> savvas, Are you running the Live CD?
[12:09] <Morten_> nbkr: I followed the install manuel, that was provided
[12:09] <Safe_> zorg_the_false, hm, doesnt seem to work, still cant access the files.
[12:10] <savvas> nbkr: no, I have dual-boot windows xp and ubuntu
[12:10] <nbkr> Morten_, Doesn't that manual have a information about how to start the compiler?
[12:10] <zorg_the_false> Safe_: ok try "sudo chmod 777 /mydirname; ls /mydirname"
[12:10] <nbkr> savvas, So what does lspci show you?
[12:10] <Morten_> nbkr: im looking for it.. but i cant seem to find it :(
[12:10] <Safe_> sure,
[12:11] <SlimG2> How do I define the metric in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[12:11] <savvas> nbkr: http://pastebin.ca/685354
[12:11] <nbkr> Morten_, You could use find to locate the application. But it is probably easier to just install the fortran compiles that are shipped with ubuntu.
[12:11] <Safe_> ah there, thanks again zorg_the_false. ;)
[12:12] <overclucker> savvas, maybe it's a udev issue
[12:12] <Morten_> nbkr, yeah, but I didn't know what to intall. I just installed what we are using at my university.
[12:12] <nbkr> savvas, Are those disks SATA devices? Than they should be on /dev/sda1 and /dev/scd I think.
[12:13] <nbkr> Morten_, apt-cache search fortran should list the g77 - Compiler. And if you have the universe-repository working it should list gfortran also. Try one of those.
[12:13] <zorg_the_false> Safe_: :)
[12:13] <zhanx> anybody?
[12:13] <Morten_> nbkr, okay, thx alot! :)
[12:14] <zhanx> nsv - network streaming video on linux?
[12:14] <nbkr> zhanx, Tryied VLC?
[12:14] <zhanx> tried i get sound
[12:14] <nbkr> But?
[12:14] <zhanx> no video
[12:15] <savvas> nbkr overclucker: this problem appeared ever since I changed from socket A motherboard to intel core 2 duo => I didn't format the root partition and install the system again, is that wrong? also, the 80-pin wire connects them both and they are both detected as PATA. they should be /dev/hda and /dev/hdb as far as I know. no they're not SATA, my 2 sata disks are detected successfully :(
[12:15] <nbkr> What kind of file do you try to play? WMV Files, Avi, DVDs?
[12:16] <zhanx> streaming nsv. winamp format from in2stream.com *which*they say works with vlc
[12:16] <overclucker> savvas, you might want to try reinstalling, if isn't too much trouble
[12:17] <nbkr> savvas, lspci shows "Unknown device" for that IDE Controller. Maybe it is not supported.
[12:17] <nbkr> zhanx, Maybe a codec missing. What do they use as video codec?
[12:17] <overclucker> savvas, maybe you need to compile your own kernel
[12:17] <zhanx> th stream forvideo appears to be VP61
[12:17] <Gernimo> Hello
[12:18] <zhanx> on the video info
[12:18] <savvas> overclucker: i'm using i386, I'll try the amd64 one

[12:18] <cryptos> can i increase/decrease brightness of monitor of my laptop from shell?
[12:18] <Gernimo> I need help to installing my laptop wifi card :/
[12:18] <zhanx> they use a NPnsv._vp3_mp3.dll for windows
[12:19] <nbkr> Gernimo, Just ask your questions :-)
[12:19] <overclucker> might help, but i was thinking maybe you needed to compile the kernel to add pata support, not as a module
[12:19] <Gernimo> It s a intel 4965AGN
[12:19] <savvas> nbkr: thank you too, I'll check if there's a support problem
[12:20] <zhanx> is there away to run winamp in ubuntu?
[12:20] <Gernimo> It s ask me to install the mac subsytem and when I try it s write : Kernel Makefile not found at '/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/source/'
[12:20] <zhanx> should check the wine db first eh?

I lost my paper that had the commands on it... I remember one said "ifconfig rth0" and then there was one right after it... Please help

[12:23] <Nighthawk420> thats wat i meant hehe
[12:23] <Nighthawk420> i know that one

[12:23] <Nighthawk420> it has eth0 in it also
[12:23] <Nighthawk420> thats all i member
[12:23] <Ornedan> Nighthawk420: Might be 'dhclient eht0', then

[01:04] <notig> Any virtualisation gurus out there?
[01:05] <ijimene> pla
[01:05] <edn2> not a guru, but am a user
[01:05] <ijimene> ola
[01:06] <notig> is it possible to play with networking with virtualisation using the host OS and guest OS to communicate... like host an apache server on the host OS and use the guest os to get at it?
[01:06] <notig> I cannot seem to ping my guest OS from the HOST os or vice versa
[01:06] <edn2> yes - need to think of the ways
[01:07] <edn2> one way i use is to openvpn from guest to host
[01:07] <notig> with virtual box my guest OS windowxp IP is set to 10.0.2.15
[01:07] <edn2> but i know there are others ... lemme check my config
[01:07] <Karotte> I'm using mutt as mailprogram and vim as editor. I want my mails to have iso-8859-15 encoding when I sent them. I set send_charset to "us-ascii:iso-8859-15:utf-8" in mutt. When I send the mail, the umlauts are encoded in iso-8859-15, but the Content-Type: Header has "utf-8" set. Any ideas why?
[01:07] <notig> but i cant ping ubuntu the Host os which is 192.168.1.103
[01:08] <marlun> Will I be able to play quacke2 if I install both the quake2 and quake2-data packages? Or do I still need the Quake2 CD?
[01:09] <renzo17> marlun: as far as i remember you still need the CD
[01:09] <SlimeyPete> marlun: you'll need the CD
[01:09] <edn2> notig - i run a host-only as well as a bridged adapter
[01:10] <marlun> Know any place which explains how to install it with the CD because I have a very old Quake2 cd but what do I need from it?
[01:10] <gogeta> marlun probly just the wad files
[01:11] <marlun> ah i found an article on the ubuntu help website.
[01:11] <notig> edn2 - how can i do any networking if i cant ping from host to guest or vice versa?
[01:11] <gogeta> quake2 is opensource so alot of the mods for it are standalone now
[01:12] <edn2> notig - still checking my config ... i know the vpn connection allows it, checking my settings
[01:14] <edn2> notig - i'm using openvpn over the host-only adapter ... which adapter are you using?
[01:15] <edn2> notig - vmware, right?
[01:15] <notig> edn2 - virtualbox
[01:16] <shadowhywind> hay all, when i use dhcpcd it assigns me a different ip then what i want. I know there is a file that holds the last ip. But i can't remember where. Any ideas?
[01:16] <edn2> notig - ah, i see.  is there a host-only network connection? (i'm using vmware)
[01:16] <guardian> can someone please recommend an upnp server software: ushare ? mediatomb ? other that is better ?
[01:17] <realnewgu1> hey guys, my sound has stopped :S
[01:17] <realnewgu1> im getting no sound all of a sudden!?
[01:18] <notig> edn2 - sorry that is a little over my head... but i am on a network with a linksys router... the host system is ubuntu and the IP address is 192.168.1.103 .. the guest is xp and it is 10.0.2.15
[01:18] <realnewgu1> is there someway to set the sound back to default or anything?
[01:20] <edn2> notig - the ip address you will use to accsss your host system (from the guest) will probably be different as it looks like your host is providing a different network for the guest to play on.  what does your guest say the gateway is?
[01:21] <edn2> notig - "ipconfig" from the xp command prompt
[01:21] <notig> edn2 - 10.0.0.2
[01:21] <notig> edn2 - http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/181
[01:22] <notig> shoudl i get vmware instead of virtualbox?
[01:22] <slapfaceware>  vmware is better, but it works better in windows instead of linux
[01:22] <slapfaceware> no offensive but lots software just work better in windows than in linux
[01:23] <faileas> slapfaceware: i suppose. ;)

[01:35] <LinuxSeeker> i am having problem to install it via the normal way
[01:35] <LinuxSeeker> the install fails @ 66%
[01:35] <Pici> LinuxSeeker: Grab the AlternateCD off the download page.
[01:36] <LinuxSeeker> ok
[01:37] <LinuxSeeker> I have had Ubuntu befora and installed it with the i386 cd,i've tried the alternative one too,but it says that i've to use i368 or x86
[01:38] <kousotu> [06:37]  <kousotu> I;m having some major freeze-upswith ubufox
[01:38] <kousotu> [06:38]  <kousotu> how would I got about fixng them?
[01:40] <Pici> LinuxSeeker: I dont mean the 64bit CD, I mean the alternativeCD.
[01:41] <LinuxSeeker> ah ok
[01:41] <LinuxSeeker> okie donkey
[01:42] <Pici> LinuxSeeker: There is a checkbox on the lower part of the download page that asks if you need the alt-cd
[01:49] <aztec13> familiar at all with firestarter,nothing fancy just a basic config?
[01:49] <aztec13> i tried setting it up and i went through the wizard it woulnt let me enable sharing cause i didnt have any other device eth0? to choose from and it says you cant run them both off the same one
[01:50] <bullgard5> I have followed the debug procedure outlined in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend and obtained almost the same result: "hash matches drivers/base/power/resume.c:46". Resume from Suspend-to-Disk works, but not Resume from Suspend-to-RAM. What should I do with driver resume.c now?
[01:50] <booster> hey is there a way to change the login sounds for ubuntu???
[01:50] <bullgard5> booster: yes
[01:51] <aztec13> can somebody help? i even started with a tutorial the problem is i dont have any multiple choice connections like I see in every tutorial
[01:51] <booster> is it simple???
[01:51] <Pelo> aztec13, you don'T have them or you don'T see them ?
[01:51] <bullgard5> booster: yes
[01:52] <booster> google ???
[01:52] <aztec13> probably both
[01:52] <bullgard5> booster: no
[01:52] <Pelo> aztec13, then skip the step and proceed to the next one
[01:52] <ant30> hey people
[01:52] <aztec13> i just have a modem with ethernet i dont know what else it wants
[01:52] <ant30> have got any body a Vostro Dell with Ubuntu ?
[01:53] <Pici> aztec13: As far as I know, you need two network cards if you intend on sharing your connection to another computer.
[01:53] <ant30> I have got problems to launch X with the  nvidia 8400M
[01:53] <aztec13> i did a few diff combos and however it is now i cant get it to enable and still have a internet connect
[01:53] <Pelo> ant30,  it's better to ask a specific question , but if it's truly a model issue you can look it up here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[01:54] <aztec13> but like if i want to use frostwire does that count?
[01:54] <Pelo> aztec13, yes frostwire would could as an internet app
[01:54] <Pelo> would count
[01:55] <aztec13> so just when i go to use it i can turn the firewall off right?
[01:55] <ant30> thanks pelo
[01:56] <Optimus_Prime> hello robot
[01:56] <Pelo> aztec13, this is a firewall issue ? i thought this was a  wireless thing ( sorry I came in late)   you can set frostwire to use a specific port,  check in the prefs
[01:56] <Pici> aztec13: Can you explain from the beginning again what you are trying to do.
[01:56] <aztec13> basic firewall conjfig
[01:56] <Pelo> ant30, did you try the restricted drivers in the admin menu ? yes ?  ok proccede to the binaries
[01:57] <aztec13> 1 computer
[01:57] <ant30> ooooh, its now run with vesa controller
[01:57] <Bacta> Hi how can I mess up someones Ubuntu box???
[01:57] <Pelo> aztec13, personnaly I donT' find anything basic about the firewall in linux,  it's a bit over my head so I don'T use it
[01:57] <aztec13> no network just me
[01:57] <Bacta> i want to hack it real badass
[01:57] <laga> hi. does ubuntu have a boot log? i'd like to see the stuff that scrolled by when i booted the box.
[01:58] <Tomcat_> laga: It's all in syslog.
[01:58] <Pici> laga: check in /var/log/boot
[01:58] <Some_ux> Hi, need help setting up ubuntu server on a Hardware Raid 1
[01:58] <Pelo> !raid | Some_ux
[01:58] <ubotu> Some_ux: 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
[01:59] <Some_ux> thanks, checking
[02:01] <laga> Pici: /var/boot/log is from july ;)
[02:01] <Some_ux> I dont understand, i have hardware raid and all the help is about software raid
[02:01] <Pici> laga: er, /var/log/syslog is better
[02:01] <laga> Tomcat_: do we know each other from IRCnet?
[02:01] <Pelo> Some_ux, I'm not very knowledgable about raid stuff but since it's harware raid won't the os jsut see it as one hdd anyway ?<
[02:02] <Tomcat_> laga: I doubt it. Last time in IRCnet was... 1996 to 1998 or something.
[02:02] <laga> Pici: thanks. looks like the messages i'm looking for are missing. i get some errors from fsck.xfs
[02:02] <laga> Tomcat_: k, just wondering :)
[02:02] <Tomcat_> :-)
[02:02] <Pelo> Some_ux,  you can also do a search in the forum for  "hardware raid" that might turn up smething
[02:02] <Tomcat_> laga: Unfortunately, "Tomcat" is a well-used name ;)
[02:02] <Some_ux> it appears that the Ubuntu CD does not recognize the hardware raid
[02:02] <Pici> laga: check some of the other stuff in /var/log/ All of the logging stuff is in there.
[02:02] <Some_ux> I did search the forums but could not find anything clear
[02:03] <laga> Pici: i did. nothing came up... i guess i'll try a reboot later, write down the exact message and grep again. thanksa for the help
[02:03] <Micksa> oof.
[02:03] <Micksa> okay, let's see if I get anywhere here.
[02:03] <Pelo> Some_ux, ask around periodicaly you aren'T the first one to ask , I remember other ppl asking you should try asking at different times of day
[02:04] <Some_ux> thanks
[02:04] <booster> is there a package that will change the sounds in ubuntu???
[02:04] <Micksa> so I just recently did a dist-upgrade on my feisty laptop, and it seems to be rather enthusiastic about the swapping now, even though I have plenty of free memory.
[02:04] <Pelo> Some_ux, one thing I do remember is you need the alternate install cd,  don'T know if the server install cd works
[02:04] <Pelo> booster,  you mean the system sound theme ?
[02:05] <DarkED> how do i install something using svn? for instance, svn co https://kibadock.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kibadock/trunk kiba for kiba-dock
[02:05] <booster> yes
[02:05] <Pelo> booster, check in gnomelook.org
[02:05] <booster> ok
[02:05] <DarkED> ahh, nevermind, sorry :)
[02:05] <Pelo> !theme | booster  there might also be some info in here
[02:06] <ubotu> booster  there might also be some info in here: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[02:06] <Pelo> Micksa, so you are running gutsy now ?
[02:06] <Micksa> no, still feisty.
[02:06] <Micksa> it installed a new kernel.
[02:06] <tyas> 02 06 1987
[02:06] <Micksa> it seems to really want to swap stuff.
[02:07] <Pelo> Micksa, that's not a dist upgrade then just a regular update
[02:07] <zhanx> got vp61 working..after installing every codec i could find, and then running mplayer via command line
[02:07] <Pelo> Micksa, type uname -r , what's your kernel ?
[02:07] <Micksa> 2.6.20-16-generic
[02:07] <zhanx> feisty
[02:08] <Pelo> Micksa, well I can only say that I also update the kernel and this is not happening to me,  can you tell which app is using up all the swap ??
[02:08] <ctothej> i installed ubuntu-desktop after initially installing kubuntu, but my update tray notification does not show. how can I make this run again at startup to notify me of updates?
[02:09] <Micksa> no but I have about 800M free out of 1G
[02:09] <Micksa> and ~200M in swap
[02:09] <Pelo> ctothej, check in the specs in synaptic
[02:09] <jrib> ctothej: is "update-notifier" installed?
[02:09] <ALVAN> hi all
[02:10] <Pelo> Micksa, is your hdd trashing ?
[02:10] <Micksa> thrashing, yes :)
[02:10] <ALVAN> has someone installed ubuntu with dmraid ?
[02:10] <ALVAN> or other linux but with dmraid
[02:10] <ctothej> jrib: no it was not... should simply installing it do the trick? or do I have to add it to sessions?
[02:10] <aguitel> hello everybody
[02:10] <Micksa> the computer feels like I'm using too much memory, every app is sluggish and a lot of things cause disk thrashing, even though I have 800M free
[02:11] <aguitel> anyone helpme with ubuntu desktop ?
[02:11] <Micksa> you know what, I'll try turning off swap for a bit
[02:11] <jrib> ctothej: it should add itself to /etc/xdg/autostart/ automatically and should run unless a user disables it
[02:11] <Micksa> I think I have had this problem before
[02:11] <ctothej> jrib: thank you bro
[02:11] <Micksa> and there is a /proc param or similar that you can set to fix it
[02:11] <Micksa> but I forgot what it is
[02:11] <Jeruvy> any pointers on installing ubuntu on an external sata drive?  Using the alt cd I can get it installed, get it to the point to reboot, then it generates 'Error loading OS' message.
[02:11] <Micksa> like, a swap low water mark or something
[02:11] <Pelo> Micksa, try booting the previous kernel and see if it still does it,  if it does , check which apps are running and which , see if there is one that might be responsible rather then the kernel ( might be a conbination of one app on the new kernel but what ever)
[02:11] <jrib> ctothej: but update-notifier is a dep of ubuntu-desktop, so it's strange it is not installed
[02:12] <aguitel> when i minimeze firefox to the system try it desapears ,where i find it ?
[02:12] <ctothej> jrib: very true. i am running ubuntu no problem right now, should I file it as a bug?
[02:12] <Pelo> later folks
[02:13] <jrib> ctothej: I'd try to recreate it or at least have the output from APT that you got when you install ubuntu-desktop
[02:13] <zhanx> ok, looking for the start script.rc but its not in the location i am use to after switching to ubuntu
[02:14] <jrib> zhanx: what are you trying to do?
[02:14] <zhanx> add a program to start up
[02:14] <jrib> zhanx: when your user logs in?
[02:14] <zhanx> yes
[02:14] <ctothej> jrib: is it still logged from a few weeks ago?
[02:14] <jrib> !startup > zhanx (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:14] <aguitel> when i minimeze firefox to the system try it desapears ,where i find it ?
[02:14] <zhanx> k
[02:15] <zhanx> !startup
[02:15] <ubotu> To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[02:15] <kbrosnan> aguitel: on one of the other desktops?
[02:15] <jrib> ctothej: depends what you used.  I know /var/log/aptitude* is usually pretty detailed.  Not sure about other stuff
[02:15] <aguitel> kbrosnan ,at all
[02:16] <jrib> aguitel: how are you minimizing to the system tray?  It doesn't do that by default right?
[02:16] <zhanx> used to just editing file..nice to have an interface i guess
[02:17] <aguitel> jrb ,it make click in right corner to minimeze (sign -) and it desapears
[02:17] <WaxyFresh> hi how do i get applications to autostart when starting ubuntu?
[02:18] <jrib> aguitel: ah, in your panel, do you have the "window list" applet?
[02:18] <defrysk> WaxyFresh, preferences > sessions
[02:18] <zhanx> !nautilus
[02:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nautilus - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:18] <jrib> !info nautilus
[02:18] <ubotu> nautilus: file manager and graphical shell for GNOME. In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.18.1-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 645 kB, installed size 1568 kB
[02:18] <aguitel> jrb ,what panel are you talking about ?
[02:18] <zhanx> k
[02:19] <zhanx> i'll get it some day
[02:20] <jrib> aguitel: right click on some empty space on one of your panels (the grey bars at the top and bottom of your screen) and then go to "add to panel..." and add the "window list" applet
[02:20] <Some_ux> Pelo: will attempt to use alternate CD when i finish downloading it
[02:20] <ZAKhan> how do i create a VCD from an avi ?
[02:20] <aguitel> jrb ,ok
[02:21] <aguitel> jrb ,thanks
[02:23] <Flamekebab> My extra partitions are auto mounted, but as root, meaning I can't write to them. How can I fix this? (linux partitions, not NTFS)
[02:23] <cdavis> anyone have bacula installed?
[02:23] <cdavis> I get errors on bacula-console-gnome and wondered if it was just my machine, I can't find any reported bugs
[02:23] <jrib> Flamekebab: use chmod/chown to change the permissions where they are mounted.  Treat them just like any other file...
[02:23] <jrib> !permissions > Flamekebab (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:24] <Flamekebab> Isn't it possible to get them to mount at login, so to speak?
[02:24] <christoffernors> evilidler
[02:24] <Flamekebab> I can't seem to get the permissions to update recursively
[02:24] <jrib> Flamekebab: you just said they were already automatically mounted
[02:25] <puvneet> hi does any on eknow how to solve  grub error 22
[02:25] <jrib> Flamekebab: where are you mounting them and what type of data is on them?
[02:26] <puvneet> so can some one help me
[02:26] <Flamekebab> yeah, they are already mounted, but as root, it would seem.
[02:26] <jrib> Flamekebab: right, you need to use chmod/chown on them
[02:26] <Flamekebab> they're mounted in /media/
[02:26] <TelnetManta> can anyone tell me where to find the Firefox_wallpaper.png file?
[02:27] <TelnetManta> I cant find it on my system and I want to back it up
[02:27] <jrib> TelnetManta: what is Firefox_wallpaper.png?
[02:27] <TelnetManta> when you set an image as your background from inside firefox it gets that name
[02:27] <jrib> Flamekebab: what permissions are you trying to give and how are you trying?
[02:28] <n3tfury> TelnetManta:  did you check hidden files when searching
[02:28] <Flamekebab> I'm trying to make them 0777
[02:28] <TelnetManta> i just did locate Firefox_wallpaper.png
[02:28] <Flamekebab> and I've managed it to some extent
[02:28] <jrib> Flamekebab: join me in #ubuntu-classroom

[02:29] <n3tfury> TelnetManta, try here /usr/share/pixmaps/mozilla-firefox.png
[02:29] <Jeruvy> any pointers on installing ubuntu on an external sata drive?  Using the alt cd I can get it installed, get it to the point to reboot, then it generates 'Error loading OS' message.
[02:29] <TelnetManta> n3tfury: Checkbox where? Im searching in a term window

[02:34] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?

[02:36] <jrib> TelnetManta: well try:  find ~ -name Firefox_wallpaper.png
[02:36] <puvneet> how do you update ubuntu 5.04
[02:36] <Pici> puvneet: 5.04 has not been supported for about a year.
[02:37] <defrysk> puvneet, maybe its wiser to do a fresh install
[02:37] <berniekun> 
[02:37] <ctothej> zhanx: none that I have heard of, but then again, it is not a major topic that I see. you are going to use it for work?
[02:37] <jrib> TelnetManta: I just tried here and it shows up as ~/Firefox_wallpaper.png so maybe try setting the picture as background again?
[02:38] <berniekun> puvneet $sudo apt-get upgrade
[02:38] <berniekun> puvneet $sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[02:38] <puvneet> i realize that but i have no choice because my other computer has a grub 22 error and need to update the bootloader and to do that i need to burn a rescue disk for xp and to do that i need to install brasero and finally to do that i need an update on 5.04 just to tell you my problems
[02:38] <Pici> berniekun: It wont work. There 5.04 and 5.10 are no longer supported.
[02:38] <Alessio88>

[02:41] <familie> hello world, I installed the new ubuntu the first time from scratch on a box in our network and I'm really gonna puke now: a) Why was GParted removec from the setup?? b) Why was XChat removed from the std installation? c) Why in hell wasn't I promted to enter a root password during installation?! What happened to ubuntu :(
[02:41] <familie> Now I'm sitting here without any root password wtf?
[02:41] <Alessio88> sudo
[02:41] <Alessio88> su
[02:41] <jrib> !root > familie (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:41] <zhanx> familie,  dont worry the root password tripped me out too, i just reset it
[02:42] <jrib> !root > zhanx (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:42] <Pici> zhanx: please dont suggest that.
[02:42] <familie> zhanx, how to reset it?
[02:42] <jrib> familie: don't reset it, read the private message ubotu sent you
[02:42] <booster> yup
[02:42] <puvneet> so can anyone help me is there an app to erase and rewrite cd's in ubuntu 5.04
[02:42] <familie> jrib, why was it removed?
[02:42] <jrib> familie: what was what removed?
[02:42] <zhanx> oh umm.. well ok
[02:42] <Pici> !hoary | puvneet
[02:42] <familie> I mean why was it changed.. the root password
[02:42] <ubotu> puvneet: Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog) was the second release of Ubuntu.  End Of Life: October 31, 2006. See !eol for more details.
[02:43] <zezom> is there a 64bit version of ubuntu? or can I just use the normal installer disk and it will figure out that I need 64bit support on it's own?
[02:43] <familie> zezom, on ubuntu.com there is one
[02:43] <jrib> zezom: there is, but on a desktop system you should use i386 anyway
[02:43] <Jeruvy> any pointers on installing ubuntu on an external sata drive?  Using the alt cd I can get it installed, get it to the point to reboot, then it generates 'Error loading OS' message.
[02:43] <puvneet> what is eol
[02:43] <Pici> !eol | puvneet
[02:43] <ubotu> puvneet: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates for an Ubuntu release stop. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/LifeCycle
[02:43] <zezom> familie, jrib thanks guys
[02:43] <renzo17> zezom: releases.ubuntu.com
[02:43] <Pici> puvneet: It is no longer supported.
[02:43] <familie> Jeruvy, did you change the boot order in your bios?
[02:44] <jrib> familie: it wasn't changed.  Ubuntu uses grants sudo rights to the first user instead of setting a root password
[02:44] <jrib> s/uses//
[02:44] <TelnetManta> jrib: What did you try? Do you mean that you see it at ~/
[02:44] <familie> jrib, great and now I need to setup another account in order to use ssh?
[02:44] <jrib> familie: if you want to
[02:44] <Jeruvy> familie: the boot order in bios is not affected by external drives
[02:44] <puvneet> is there a way to upgrade to the new version with having to burn and install a whole new version and just upgrade over the internet
[02:44] <puvneet> with out having...
[02:45] <familie> Jeruvy, I gotta do it in my scsi-card's bios
[02:45] <Jeruvy> familie: it's not scsi, its eSATA
[02:45] <jrib> TelnetManta: I found an image in firefox, right click -> set as background, then I looked in /home/jrib and there was a file called "Firefox_wallpaper.png"
[02:45] <renzo17> puvneet: apt-get can upgrade a distro for you
[02:46] <Jeruvy> familie: however setup detected it as SCSI 6 (sde) partitioned and formatted ok.  But does not boot.
[02:46] <puvneet> what is the command
[02:46] <familie> Jeruvy, oh, sorry i misread that
[02:46] <glance> Hellu
[02:46] <ctothej> !dist-upgrade | puvneet
[02:46] <renzo17> puvneet: which version are you upgrading from --->  ??
[02:46] <ubotu> puvneet: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:46] <Pici> puvneet: Perhaps if you were only one release behind, yes. But you are not.  I suggest you backup and download the Feisty install disk and do a clean install.

[02:52] <dxa> does ubuntu use bash?
[02:53] <Hippu> dxa: ubuntu uses dash by default
[02:53] <Pici> dxa: Yes. But /bin/sh is linked to dash.
[02:53] <dxa> why?
[02:53] <dxa> what are the differences and why prefer dash over bash?
[02:53] <Pici> dxa: It uses bash for login sessions, but dash for /bin/sh it is supposedly more lightweight.
[02:53] <Tomcat_> dxa: dash needs less memory and starts faster.
[02:54] <dxa> but does it have the same features?
[02:54] <Tomcat_> dxa: No... less features. That's why it's more lightweight :)
[02:54] <Pici> dxa: Its not 100% compatible.
[02:54] <jrib> dxa: it's supposed to be posix compliant.  If a script claims to use /bin/sh, it is supposed to work
[02:54] <monkeyBox> Can anyone point me to a php-4 installation howto for ubuntu feisty?  I've googled and everything I've come up with is just a story about how php4 is now unsupported.

[02:55] <jrib> dxa: scripts that rely on bashisms are supposed to have #!/bin/bash instead of #!/bin/sh in other words

[02:56] <npnufn> where can I get the Pidgin for Ubuntu?
[02:56] <SlimeyPete> !pidgin
[02:56] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[02:56] <npnufn> I see only win/Fedora/Redhat ports.
[02:56] <private_guy> Hi there guys, I cannot access my wireless using a WAP Security code, there is no option for WAP, only WEP, im running ubuntu 7.04 :P

[02:59] <thor> I am having problems installing ntfs-3g in dapper. Synaptics refuses to install it as some libraries are not the correct version. Anyone know how to get the latest?
[02:59] <renzo17> private_guy: is network manager not taking care of it for you?
[02:59] <npnufn> Pici; do u know any location where I can get Feisty port of Pidgin.
[02:59] <private_guy> renzo17: not really, there is only a WEP option and not a WAP option :(
[02:59] <Pici> npnufn: No, I do not. Sorry.
[03:00] <renzo17> private_guy: do you mean WPA?
[03:00] <private_guy> *WPA sorry :P lol
[03:00] <private_guy> renzo17: *WAP sorry :P lol
[03:00] <private_guy> renzo17: *dam.. im so tired, i mean WPA lol
[03:01] <thor> private_guy: I had the same problem not getting wpa with network manager. Turned out the card I was using can't support it in linux.
[03:01] <private_guy> thor: Mine is supported on Linux because I read it in the ubuntu forums, mine is called Belkin :P
[03:01] <renzo17> private_guy: network manager should support it by default, if not, you may have to play with wpasupplicant manually, see here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[03:02] <usser> hello everybody
[03:02] <private_guy> renzo17: If it doesn't support it in default, what does it mean then? that my wireless card isn't support?
[03:02] <renzo17> private_guy: not necessarily, it just may not be configured properly, i'm not much an expert on wireless
[03:03] <npnufn> Is there any one who knows how to install pidgin in my Feisty box.
[03:03] <IrishDave> hey, does anyone know if it's possible to share a music library on a ubuntu machine with a machine using itunes (like itunes can share it's library with other itunes machines)

[03:07] <tparcina> how to run graphical program as root? (gedit)
[03:07] <renzo17> tparcina: gksudo gedit
[03:08] <npnufn> renzo17; in the earlier I thought like that.  but ubotu is answering like a real person.
[03:08] <erUSUL> tparcina: gksudo
[03:08] <renzo17> tparcina: e.g. " gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list "
[03:08] <yaiba> renzo17 :  try to install my card with ndiswrapper and dmc43xx-firmware but it's doesn't work

[03:08] <tparcina> I get message - cannot open display :(
[03:08] <renzo17> yaiba: whats the card make/model?

[03:11] <superbenk> hello
[03:11] <superbenk> maybe a silly question... how do I tell the Ubuntu Server install to load a 3rd party driver during install?
[03:11] <tparcina> renzo17: I can't start it as root :(
[03:12] <superbenk> I'm used to dd or dd= as a kernel boot option in CentOS, but I don't know how Ubuntu does it
[03:12] <Silly_Wabbit> Hi all :-)
[03:12] <renzo17> yaiba, your wireless is actually a broadcom 43xx..........have a look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405990&highlight=broadcom+1390
[03:12] <renzo17> tparcina: what are you trying to do?
[03:12] <s_v_e_n> hello, Im looking for precompiled packages OpenGroupware for Dapper LTS   -- any Ideas ?
[03:13] <renzo17> tparcina: as in which file you editing?
[03:13] <yaiba> renzo17 : thx
[03:13] <zhanx> can i install a RPM on ubuntu?
[03:13] <erUSUL> !alien | zhanx
[03:13] <wottam> hi
[03:13] <ubotu> zhanx: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[03:14] <renzo17> zhanx: yeah you can, best way is to use alien to convert it to a deb then install it.......best bet though is to find a deb version already compiled for you
[03:14] <tparcina> renzo17: /home/tomo/Desktop/test.txt
[03:14] <zhanx> renzo17,  thats a no go there aint one
[03:14] <renzo17> zhanx: have you chacked the debian repos or getdeb?
[03:14] <EvaLuaTe> if i installed xubuntu-desktop and removed it, it didn't remove all the files and dependencies that were installed during the xubuntu-desktop install, is there a way i could completely remove it ?
[03:15] <renzo17> tparcina: you shouldnt need to be root to edit a file in your home folder
[03:15] <zhanx> getdeb? and besides it commerical software so it shouldn't be there
[03:15] <berent> where do i put the ttf files?
[03:15] <tparcina> ok, then /etc/xinet.d/Xvnc :)
[03:16] <berent> where do i put the ttf files for viewing a new font type on my browser?
[03:16] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: xubuntu-desktop is only a meta-package.........i thinkk you need to uninstall everything individually by name
[03:16] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: hold on, theres a guide
[03:16] <EvaLuaTe> ouch :/
[03:17] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: just copy+paste the command here http://www.shivanjaikaran.com/blog/?p=49
[03:17] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: its only one command, its just very long
[03:18] <renzo17> tparcina: for that file you do need to be root so run " gksudo gedit /etc/xinet.d/Xvnc "
[03:18] <EvaLuaTe> renzo17, yeah, copy/paste would be very nice, but i'm in command line right now
[03:18] <EvaLuaTe> thanks anyway, that helps :)
[03:19] <jrib> EvaLuaTe: without X?
[03:19] <h1st0> EvaLuaTe: you could enable mouse and do copy and paste
[03:19] <tparcina> renzo17: look at this - http://slexy.org/paste/4727
[03:19] <Silly_Wabbit> Hi, just installed Ubuntu ( my first linux experience :-) ) I'm having a problem playing the video "experience Ubuntu" in Movie Player: I get a audio, but blank screen which breaks up when I try to re-size it during playback. I did some reading, but can't find the answer. I managed to get to the "multimedia systems selector" window via the CLI. Under the "video" tab it says "Device not supported" so maybe that's my problem? I really have tried to figure
[03:19] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: you may be able to view it with linx (or lynx....i forget how its spelt)
[03:19] <EvaLuaTe> yeah, without X, the normal thing ubuntu server edition comes with
[03:19] <jrib> EvaLuaTe: you can copy and paste with screen as well
[03:20] <jrib> EvaLuaTe: or you could wget the html file and then edit to only have the command, lots of options :)
[03:20] <usser> EvaLuaTe it lynx
[03:20] <usser> err its

[03:21] <renzo17> tparcina: are you at a command line (i.e. no X running?) if so use nano instead i.e.  " sudo nano /etc/xinet.d/Xvnc "
[03:21] <usser> Hanusz_Leszek isnt he you?
[03:21] <Hanusz_Leszek> we are friends we are looking for him

[03:25] <Ircownik> hello. I've got a problem with Feisty: I can't install anything - all check boxes are yellow. Can anyone help me with that, pls?
[03:26] <berniesama> what is your favorite bt client?!
[03:26] <Silly_Wabbit> Hi, I have a problem with playing video in "Movie player" can somebody help, please? :)
[03:26] <berniesama> silly -> check synaptic and install gstreamer
[03:27] <Frosty|IDle> install vlc :D
[03:27] <berniesama> you need the video framer for movie player
[03:27] <Frosty|IDle> that software can play almost anything :)
[03:27] <Ircownik> check boxes are green, of course
[03:27] <Silly_Wabbit> @berniesama - I'll try that, thanks for yourhelp :)
[03:27] <Daverocks> why are you guys automatically assuming it's a codec problem?
[03:27] <Daverocks> Silly_Wabbit: you said it was the "experience ubuntu" video you couldn't play?
[03:27] <kkathman> thats flash isnt it ?
[03:27] <Silly_Wabbit> yes, just installed linux and this video won't play
[03:28] <Daverocks> kkathman: ogg
[03:28] <selinuxium> hi all, I have just installed a vanilla feisty but I have no sound now... I can see the card in lspci... just plain weird!
[03:28] <kkathman> ahh I had forgot :)
[03:28] <EvaLuaTe> i am connecting to the internet through an fiber connection, and when connecting my ubuntu 6.06 computer directly to the modem it won't connect, it only connects if i do i through a router, does anyone have a solution for this ?
[03:28] <Ircownik> anyone?
[03:28] <Frogzoo> !sound | selinuxium
[03:28] <Silly_Wabbit> I get audio, but no video :)
[03:28] <ubotu> selinuxium: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[03:29] <berniesama> Daverocks: if you are experience you would have asked a more advanced question, hence I guessed it was the GStreamer problem
[03:29] <Daverocks> Silly_Wabbit: sounds like totem is having trouble with video out, what graphics card do you have?
[03:29] <sipior> selinuxium: is your account a member of the audio group?
[03:29] <stefg> selinuxium: intel hda ?
[03:29] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: wget http://www.manorfarmpork.co.uk/xubuntu_remove.txt
[03:29] <EvaLuaTe> yeah, thanks renzo17, i think i managed to remove it
[03:29] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: then you can just open the file in nano/vim/pico and copy paste the command
[03:30] <EvaLuaTe> :)
[03:30] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: cool,
[03:30] <selinuxium> Frogzoo: I don't believe it, I have been struggling with this one for a bit. Turns out for some reason it decided to use the digital outs as standard! Thanks for you help all
[03:30] <Silly_Wabbit> Sorry, I'm not too sure what card it is. I have some integrated card. I managed to get to the "multimedia selector" box and it says under device: "unsuported" What do you think?
[03:30] <selinuxium> sipior: stefg Cheers ^^^^
[03:30] <Ircownik> I've been using ubuntu for quite a long time and I have'nt had such a problem before, that's why I asked
[03:30] <Daverocks> berniesama: fair enough, but he clearly said earlier in the channel (before i jutted in) that it was the experience ubuntu sample video that he couldn't play, which is ogg
[03:31] <stefg> Silly_Wabbit: what does lsci | grep audio say?
[03:31] <stefg> Silly_Wabbit: what does lspci | grep audio say?
[03:31] <Frogzoo> selinuxium: yeah, trap for new players that is
[03:31] <Daverocks> stefg: uh, his audio is ok, it's just the video
[03:31] <stefg> Oh... thanks for the hint
[03:31] <Silly_Wabbit> @stefg Sorry, I don't know what you mean, this is my first experience with linux
[03:32] <Ircownik> the other thing is I cannot enable nvidia drivers with restricted dirivers managemetn tool.
[03:32] <stefg> Silly_Wabbit: nerver mind... i was way off... that was a terminal command
[03:32] <Ircownik> both on ubuntu or xubuntu
[03:32] <Silly_Wabbit> and yeah, it's the sample video "experience ubuntu" i get sound but no video
[03:32] <Silly_Wabbit> @stefg no problem, thanks for trying to help :)
[03:32] <stefg> Silly_Wabbit: using dsktop effects?
[03:33] <Silly_Wabbit> @stefg  yes, I have them turned on :)
[03:33] <stefg> Silly_Wabbit: turn them off and try again
[03:33] <Frogzoo> Silly_Wabbit: what file type is that?
[03:33] <renzo17> .ogg
[03:33] <Silly_Wabbit> @stefg thanks, I will try that, and let you know what happens
[03:33] <kkathman> whats the link to the video btw ?
[03:34] <Silly_Wabbit> @frogzoo it's ogg vorbis the "experience ubunto" sample video
[03:34] <Silly_Wabbit> brb, going to try turning off the desktop effects :)
[03:34] <kkathman> stefg yeah I was going to try it here since I have fusion effects running
[03:34] <Silly_Wabbit> thanks all :)
[03:34] <berent> for some reasons stand-by mode of feisty doesnt work for me. It shuts down with some errors printing like usb closing ....
[03:34] <Daverocks> kkathman: it's in /usr/share/example-content/
[03:34] <EvaLuaTe> ok, so i got a tip to install PPPoE for my internet connection to work, i did, but i have no grafical interface, is there a way to configure PPPoE throught the terminal ?
[03:34] <kkathman> ok thanks Daverocks
[03:34] <berent> because of this my processor fan runs all thru the day
[03:34] <EvaLuaTe> s/throught/through/

[03:36] <EvaLuaTe> pppoeconfig command not found :/
[03:36] <Daverocks> kkathman: but your hardware configuration is different to Silly_Wabbit's
[03:36] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: sudo pppoeconf soz
[03:36] <stefg> EvaLuaTe: sudo pppoeconf
[03:36] <EvaLuaTe> yeah, works now :)
[03:36] <EvaLuaTe> thanks guys
[03:37] <Daverocks> kkathman: sometimes xgl causes other problems on angry hardware, and turning it off often helps
[03:37] <kkathman> Daverocks:  oh sure thats true...but just saying that its plays fine with compiz-fusion running in all its glory :)
[03:37] <kkathman> with nVIdia, I used to turn it off on my other distro
[03:37] <kkathman> Im not 100% sure that you can in compiz-fusion
[03:38] <stefg> In general XGL works quite flawless with nvidia-stuff on nvidia-glx, but reverse-blows hard on ATi
[03:39] <EvaLuaTe> hmm, it says the Access Concentrator of my provider did not respond, any idea what the cause could be ?

[03:41] <private_guy> renzo17: Hi there again :), i installed WPA supplicant and anything else as shown on Ubuntu, but i still dont see a WPA option
[03:41] <EvaLuaTe> stefg, i unplugged the cable out of the router and plugged it into the modem, shouldn't it work now ?
[03:42] <private_guy> Hi there everybody again :), i installed WPA supplicant and anything else as shown on Ubuntu, but i still dont see a WPA option
[03:43] <stefg> EvaLuaTe: yes... sometimes it take a reboot or a modem reset. But why aren't you just using the router? Its doing all ther pppoe stuff and on the LAN end everything is just etherent
[03:43] <Guus__> hey, i have a question about the Network Manager applet
[03:44] <EvaLuaTe> well, i got multiple IP's from my ISP and i don't know how to set up my router so i could connect through multiple IP's through it, so i think it would be easier to just directly connect to the modem
[03:44] <Frogzoo> Guus__: that's nice for you
[03:44] <Guus__> ive created 2 profiles, ISP and OpenDNS, currently the ISp is the default one
[03:44] <Guus__> but how do i make the OpenDNS profile the default one
[03:44] <christoffernors> can i delay or advance subtitles in xine player?
[03:44] <Guus__> ?
[03:44] <renzo17> private_guy: did you follow that guide on the link and wpa is still not an option in network manage? did you reboot/restart?
[03:45] <stefg> EvaLuaTe: rather invest time in understanding your router. The NAT and (hopefully) builtin firewall are too neat to waste
[03:45] <Frogzoo> christoffernors: not afaik, nice feature though
[03:46] <EvaLuaTe> stefg, this is a bit complicated, as some of the application connecting to the internet do not recognize their real IP, they reply their local IP address, like 192.168.2.100 and stuff like that, and i don't know how to make them work :/
[03:46] <stefg> EvaLuaTe: port forwarding
[03:46] <christoffernors> damn
[03:46] <renzo17> private_guy: try running " wpa_gui " from the terminal and see if a dialog box pops up
[03:47] <EvaLuaTe> stefg, i did port forwarding, but it doesn't work
[03:47] <EvaLuaTe> or maybe i just didn't do it right ...
[03:47] <n3tfury> EvaLuaTe : why would your ISP give you multiple ip's?
[03:47] <EvaLuaTe> because i paid for them ? :P
[03:47] <n3tfury> i missed why you would do that tho
[03:47] <n3tfury> what's the purpose
[03:48] <EvaLuaTe> because i want to make a little server
[03:48] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: you need to do nat on the router
[03:48] <EvaLuaTe> hmm
[03:48] <Jeruvy> Frogzoo: why do you 'need' to do nat?
[03:48] <stefg> EvaLuaTe: and to not fall victim to next script-kiddie taking over your box and using it as spam relay you should rather invest time in understanding your router, your setup and your apps :-)
[03:49] <Frogzoo> Jeruvy: well you don't if you have multiple ips
[03:49] <EvaLuaTe> hmm
[03:49] <n3tfury> yeah, if you're going to setup a server, you need to know the ins and outs of that router.
[03:49] <EvaLuaTe> ok guys, thanks :)
[03:49] <Silly_Wabbit> /exit
[03:50] <Silly_Wabbit> /leave
[03:50] <usser> Silly
[03:50] <Jeruvy> Frogzoo: I don't know about around your home, but here every connection I can get allows me 2 IP's.  IF I want more I simply pay for more.  NAT is great and wonderful, but having two IANA routable addresses is handy.
[03:50] <soc> hi
[03:50] <soc> how can i add passwords to seahorse/gnome-keyring-manager???
[03:51] <usser> Jeruvy dudu your isp rocks )) 2 ips pfft i barely get one ))

[03:51] <Jimmey> I accidentally wrote grub to my NTFS Windows partition, and in doing so, broke it. I ran testdisk to fix the boot sector of the NTFS partition, and that made the file system readable by Ubuntu, at least - But when I try to boot into Windows, I just get "Starting up... GRUB." I get this when I select the Windows entry in GRUB, and again after I ran "fixmbr" in the Windows CD's recovery console. Why won't Windows boot?

[03:54] <Daverocks> c01100011: mount -t ntfs /dev/hdX /mnt/
[03:54] <Daverocks> c01100011: of course replacing hdX with the actual drive
[03:54] <soc> c01100011:  afaik you have to boot windows again, if it was unmounted uncleanly ...
[03:54] <stefg> c01100011: be aware that ntfs-fix doe not actually fix anything (in the sense of chkdsk) it just resets the 'clean' bits so you can moutn again rw, but that can be risky
[03:54] <Cool> I have instaled Ubuntu server on IBM Think pad 380XD
[03:54] <soc> ntfs-fix, does something, but it doesn't work as expected
[03:54] <c01100011> no, there is a way to fix an unproperly unmounted ntfs

[03:55] <tuqann> hi, i lost write access to some folders on my FAT32 drive, while others i still have read/write access on them. it's my music folder, and i share it with my XP system (different drive). any ideas how that happened? and how to get write access back
[03:55] <soc> so does someone know how i can save passwords to seahorse/gnome-keyring-manager?
[03:56] <Flamekebab> Any suggestions why other users on my network can't read or write to my samba shares?
[03:56] <LadyNikon> Flamekebab: their permissions arent set?
[03:56] <Jeruvy> tuqann: not a ubuntu question, but simply turn off the 'read only' flag on your fat files.
[03:56] <usser> Flamekebab did u add sambausers with smbpasswd
[03:56] <stefg> tuqann: so you can write to some folders on the same physical drive ?
[03:56] <Jeruvy> Flamekebab: no permission
[03:57] <Cool> I have a problem when Ubutu boot i have Grub Menu  after that on screen i see Settup and mashine automaticaly reboot what is it
[03:57] <tuqann> yes
[03:57] <tuqann> on my D (FAT32) a few folders have the "X" mark on them and other don't
[03:57] <Cool> may be hardware problems
[03:57] <Cool> ??
[03:57] <tuqann> plus i used to have write access to that folder before

[04:08] <lukasl> Hmm, I was reading I can install flashplayer 9 with flashplugin-nonfree
[04:08] <ShackJack> Does Ubuntu use a local DNS cache by default or is the DNS generally cached in the router?
[04:08] <lukasl> is that obsoleted info?
[04:08] <Guus__> lukasl, you can
[04:08] <stefg> Cool: boot the CD and choose the memtest option on CD. let it run for at least one hour before you stop it. That will tell you about your ram

[04:18] <usser> Xman if u have boot cd boot into recovery console and do 'fixmbr'
[04:18] <Dr_willis> Xman,  windows xp = boot xp cd, use its 'rescue/recovery/fix console' and the 'fixmbr' and perhaps 'fixboot' commands.
[04:18] <drilus> how do i install graphic drivers for ubuntu? everything is working fine but things are sluggish

[04:23] <Jeruvy> ok I'm in 'rescue' mode, I need to find my ubuntu install out of 5 disks.  It was sde when I installed it, but I'm now given a choice that does not include sde.  I have sda1, sda2. sda5, sdb1, sdd1.  How can I know which to select for rescue mode?
[04:23] <ikonia> Cool: skype doesn't work with a webcam on linux
[04:23] <ikonia> Cool: I don't think any way
[04:24] <cooc> I'm running Ubuntu on my AMD64 4000+ and everything seem to run a bit slow compared to Windows. The USB Mouse will hang when the system load is bad and so will applications. The system load gets bad just by surfing and viewing a video :( Any suggestions?
[04:24] <renzo17> when i boot my laptop up, network manager automatically connects to some other guys wireless in my building (his is unprotected) and i have to disconnect from his and the connect to mine. is there a way to set network manager to automatically connect to my network when i boot up?
[04:24] <Broc223> cooc: use windows
[04:25] <cooc> I hope you don't mean that
[04:25] <usser> cooc u most likely dont have video drivers installed do glxinfo | grep direct in console and paste output
[04:25] <Daverocks> cooc: you installed the amd64 version of ubuntu?
[04:25] <ikonia> 4usser what video card do you have ?
[04:25] <Arcad3> can u paste me ur  /etc/hosts?
[04:25] <MrKeuner> why shoul/should not be afraid of third party debian packages?
[04:25] <ikonia> MrKeuner debian is not ubuntu
[04:25] <usser> Arcad3 i just did like 10 lines above pastebin link ))
[04:25] <MrKeuner> ikonia: deb packages I tried to mean
[04:25] <nanonyme> although the answer to third-party packages is: if you trust the author, there's nothing wrong in using those
[04:26] <nanonyme> although the author is the only guy who gives support for them
[04:26] <ikonia> MrKeuner they can potentially do damage or require dependencies that your system doesn't have or update your system with newer incompatible versions
[04:26] <estab> servus
[04:26] <estab> oh..
[04:26] <Frogzoo_> cooc: you running 64bit?
[04:26] <nanonyme> support for unofficial packages is through unofficial support channels :)
[04:26] <ezebe> hi folks, i'm having some keyboard shortcut issues, can anybody give me some advice?
[04:26] <cooc> usser, I'm pretty sure my video driver is working fine. I used envy to install the latest. Daverocks, I don't think I installed the 64 bit version - also, I have read that some applications will be harder to install using that particular version
[04:26] <estab> which Vnc server must I use to login in a running X session?
[04:27] <MrKeuner> ikonia: can deb file erase a file /etc/testfile or write over it?
[04:27] <renzo17> !envy | cooc
[04:27] <ubotu> cooc: 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!
[04:27] <Frogzoo_> ezebe: I advise you to actually say what your problem is
[04:27] <usser> cooc still do glxinfo | grep direct so we all be sure its not it )))
[04:27] <ikonia> MrKeuner deb file can do anything - it executed with root permissinos
[04:27] <npnufn> I just installed Pidgin, but it is missing guification plugin,  does any one know about this?
[04:27] <Daverocks> cooc: yep, there tends to be more application incompatibility
[04:27] <jiam> renzo17: on your /etc/network/interfaces  you can set wireless-essid
[04:27] <usser> cooc i dont trust envy )))
[04:27] <cooc> direct rendering: Yes
[04:27] <Daverocks> usser: cooc gives a general description of slowness and you instantly assume video driver problem? wtf?
[04:27] <mikebot> What's the difference between Opera and Opera-static?
[04:28] <estab> no idea?
[04:28] <renzo17> jiam: thanks, i was under the impression that nm-applet ignored the interfaces file....?
[04:28] <mweichert> any ms exchange users here?
[04:28] <Daverocks> cooc: anything in particular using up CPU?
[04:28] <cooc> I don't know about Envy. It seemed to install without any problems and the machine worked no better before
[04:28] <usser> Daverocks i dont assume, i only suppose since its the most common reason
[04:28] <renzo17> mweichert: yeah
[04:28] <jatx> mweichert: lol yeah
[04:28] <jiam> renzo17: it does not ignore
[04:28] <ezebe> sure, i got my wireless keyboard special function keys all working yesterday, but today mysteriously the playpause one quit on me. m strangte thing is, the system/prefs/keyshortcts window sees it still, it's just that whatever i set it to do doesn't happen... i'm a bit stumped
[04:28] <Frogzoo_> !anyone | mweichert
[04:28] <ubotu> mweichert: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:28] <SlimeyPete> mikebot: static has the QT libraries compiled-in, non-static requires you to already have them installed.
[04:29] <mikebot> SlimeyPete: What are the QT libraries?
[04:29] <cooc> I tried to study the list of running processed but it seems nothing in particular stands out as eating up all my CPU
[04:29] <Guus__> ive created 2 profiles in the nework manager applet, ISP and OpenDNS, currently the ISP is the default profile on bootup but how do i make OpenDNS the default profile at bootup?
[04:29] <mweichert> does exchange 2007 have any standard way of accessing calendars, such as ical?
[04:29] <usser> cooc how about memory?
[04:29] <SlimeyPete> mikebot: they're programming libraries which handle GUI stuff (like GTK). There's a fairly good chance you already have them installed.
[04:29] <cooc> I got 4GB and nothing is even denting that
[04:29] <Arcad3> thanks i was offline
[04:29] <ezebe> ubotu: i spose it's just people trying to be polite
[04:30] <Pici> ezebe: ubotu is a bot.
[04:30] <Dr_willis> a polite bot.
[04:30] <Dr_willis> :)
[04:30] <mikebot> SlimeyPete: SO then is there any advantage to opera-static? Because I know I'm using static instead of just plain Opera.
[04:30] <cooc> A problem scenario could be surfing with Firefox while chatting and listening to music. Changing between the applications and initating new actions in those programs will take a lot longer than what I'm used to
[04:30] <SlimeyPete> mikebot: no advantage, really, no.
[04:31] <Frogzoo_> ezebe: politeness isn't good netiquette - your prelim is spam
[04:31] <grungehead> i've got the problem, that when i connect by the gnome VPN-Connection Manager to a VPN-Network, my DNS and Searchdomains gets lost... how can i fix that?
[04:31] <onats> i inserted a usb portable hard drive, how do i determine what its filesystem type is?
[04:31] <mikebot> SlimeyPete: OK, thanks.
[04:31] <ezebe> ok, i like talking to bots, they're always friendly
[04:31] <Urilockz> is gutsy gibbon the next release of ubuntu?
[04:31] <Mba7eth> hi all guys how to set my NIC to full duplex mode ?
[04:31] <Dr_willis> Urilockz,  yes.
[04:32] <ikonia> onats: if you just mount it, it should work it out if the file system is supported
[04:32] <ikonia> Mba7eth ethtool
[04:32] <mweichert> renzo17: how do you access your calendar from ubuntu?
[04:32] <Urilockz> oh right ok
[04:32] <Daverocks> cooc: well the typical thing that happens when you switch programs and initiate new actions in programs is more RAM writing than usual, but i don't see how it could be slow RAM writing
[04:32] <onats> ikonia, hi. yes, i can see the files, but unable to paste onto it..
[04:32] <Frogzoo_> Urilockz: gutsy is alpha - to be released in october sometime
[04:32] <Urilockz> /chat ubotu
[04:32] <Mba7eth> ikonia : thnks
[04:32] <ikonia>  onats ok so its probably mounted read only
[04:32] <Urilockz> how do I talk to ubotu
[04:32] <cooc> I have no idea about this because I'm fairly new to Linux but what about the Kernel? Could it be that it's not the 'right' kernel I'm using?

[04:33] <renzo17> mweichert: i dont sdaly, i boot xp..... there may be a way to do it in thunderbird or evolution though
[04:33] <ikonia> if you open a terminal and type "mount" tell me what type of file system it is
[04:33] <gnub> is it possible to activate swap on a usb stick on live cd_
[04:33] <onats> ikonia, that's why i asked the first question...:)

[04:35] <DeadLock> I want to reformat a harddrive from the commandline. Is there a way?
[04:35] <Dr_willis> DeadLock,  you wish to totally erase the hard drive? thats doable.
[04:35] <ikonia> DeadLock: yup, what file system do you want
[04:35] <DeadLock> ext3.
[04:35] <stefg> DeadLock: a hardrive or just a partition?
[04:35] <renzo17> DeadLock: parted, but make sure drive is unmounted first
[04:35] <erUSUL> DeadLock: make partitions? reformat filesystems?
[04:35] <ikonia> DeadLock: mke2fs -j /dev/$harddisk_name
[04:35] <renzo17> DeadLock: or use gparted livecd, can have gui without installing it to disk then
[04:35] <DeadLock> fdisk -l wills how if it mounted or no?
[04:35] <onats> renzo17, thanks!
[04:35] <ikonia> DeadLock: with sudo
[04:36] <Dr_willis> DeadLock,  mount command. :)

[04:36] <Dr_willis> partition the hd. format the partitions. mount them whever ya want.
[04:36] <Daverocks> cooc: no ;)
[04:36] <Daverocks> cooc: every binary is different
[04:37] <Frogzoo_> cooc: stick with 32
[04:37] <grungehead> why does the gnome VPN-Network manager delete my DNS settings at a connection?
[04:37] <Frogzoo_> cooc: how much swap did you configure?
[04:37] <cooc> Well, boo hoo :( This is a bit frustrating. I know something isn't right but it's hard to describe and I don't know what to check.

[04:38] <Frogzoo_> cooc: what is being slow?
[04:38] <Soupy> Does anyone use terminal services for ubuntu? Ive installed FreeNX but looking for something else thats easier/better Map drives etc remotely?
[04:38] <cooc> A lot of different applications seem to run slow. Sometimes they go fine and sometimes they go really slow. Not from reboot to reboot but through one session

[04:39] <Ward1983> gnub, try /nick
[04:39] <Frogzoo_> cooc: have you tried running top/htop to see if there's a process(s) taking all the cpu?
[04:39] <radu> what is the proper wat to set the IOelevator to anticipatory at boot?
[04:39] <stefg> cooc: inspect the systemmonitor who's eating up the cpu cycles..... ati drivers are popuar to blame, too

[04:41] <Soupy> Does anyone use terminal services for ubuntu? Ive installed FreeNX but looking for something else thats easier/better Map drives etc remotely?
[04:41] <cooc> I'm looking at it right now and nothing in particular is eating up anything. It's very strange but when I browse a website it will hang for a second before changing to the link I pressed
[04:41] <cooc> I get the same sensation when changing the song or pressing a tab in Konversation

[04:42] <Jeruvy> ok, why does ubuntu installer see my drive as sde, but 'rescue mode' can't detect it?
[04:42] <DeadLock> I did S
[04:42] <DeadLock> mediapc@ubuntumedia:~$
[04:42] <DeadLock> Bah sorry. I did that command to turn my drive into ext and it still shows up as my old filesystem.
[04:43] <cooc> I'll take a look at the WebBrowsing in a minute. The feel of the system is just telling me that it's not a series of different problems but one interconnected one
[04:43] <DeadLock> I used 'sudo mke2fs -j /dev/sdc1'
[04:43] <ezebe> :Frogzoo_ i've had a look in gconf and the key is correctly assigned by the pfreferences app, it just doesnt do anything - it's being seen by the preferences app but not by the rest of the system or something. any other ideas?
[04:43] <Ward1983> what do i need to change this to? i'm on Feisty "XLIB = /usr/lib/libc.sa /usr/X386/lib/libX11.sa /usr/lib/libm.sa"
[04:43] <ikonia> DeadLock thats the right command
[04:43] <stefg> cooc: look at your memory usage. any swap involved yet?
[04:44] <Frogzoo_> ezebe: did you map that key in another app? like amarok?
[04:44] <ezebe> I dont think so, but it is amarok i'm using... i'll have a look thanks
[04:45] <cooc> Mem:   3370440k total,  3194336k used,   176104k free,    34856k buffers
[04:45] <cooc> Swap:  4409800k total,    17464k used,  4392336k free,  2821244k cached
[04:45] <cooc> That doesn't look right
[04:45] <cooc> I know for sure there's 4GB in there of pure hardware RAM
[04:46] <stefg> cooc: you'd need the server kernel to fully address 4GB
[04:46] <aantn> When using pbuilder it tells me ".pbuilderrc does not exist". Is that a problem?
[04:46] <Ward1983> 4GB :s
[04:46] <joq> how do I shrink partitions
[04:46] <joq> ?
[04:46] <cooc> Okay, I can probably live without that. What is eating all the RAM? No application on the list uses more than a few % of the total RAM and yet that paste shows it's full
[04:46] <Ward1983> overkill lol
[04:46] <Soupy> Does anyone use terminal services for ubuntu? What are my choices? I need to connect to my Ubuntu machine from work and have file access
[04:46] <ezebe> Frogzoo_: amarok has all shortcuts set to default, key still not readable by anything other than the prefs app
[04:47] <Frogzoo_> cooc: that's normal
[04:47] <usser> Soupy ssh is the way to go
[04:47] <stefg> cooc: so funny as it sounds. Too much Ram can be bad for performance
[04:47] <erUSUL> cooc: 2821244k <--- Disk cache
[04:47] <genii> cooc: Maybe your onboard video is using some
[04:47] <stefg> cooc: look at free -m
[04:47] <cooc> no onboard video
[04:47] <Soupy> usser I need the entire GUI not just folders
[04:47] <Ward1983> lol that would be funny, 4gb of ram and onboard video :d
[04:48] <cooc> I'm looking at free -m
[04:48] <Soupy> I want to control the desktop remotely from a session
[04:48] <Urilockz> My keyboard is messed up when I go into Xgl. the technical keys like #|"!$ are in different places. Any ideas?
[04:48] <toxic> hello, i'm looking for a howto or help for installing the intel graphic drivers (not the i810) on my ubuntu feisty...
[04:48] <usser> Soupy vnc is pretty cool )
[04:48] <Frogzoo_> cooc: just temporarily try disabling swap with 'sudo swapoff /dev/###'
[04:48] <stefg> cooc: nothing keeps you from installing the server kernel along the standard one and trying it.Grub will let you choose which kernel to boot. Would be interesting...
[04:48] <erUSUL> cooc: with 4Gb i will ook into using the server kernel or compiling one more suited to address all memory
[04:48] <rafaelscj> !vnc
[04:48] <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
[04:49] <Soupy> VNC is good, but VNC does nto resize for sessions etc.. My desktop is 1680x1050 and VNC makes it use that size
[04:49] <cooc> Allright, stefg and erUSUL. I'll look into that later. I'll try that command right now, Frogzoo_
[04:49] <usser> Soupy well most vnc clients support scaling
[04:49] <cooc> It says no such file or dir
[04:49] <cooc> oh i gotta find it
[04:50] <Vlet> Soupy: Have a look at this: http://www.movingtofreedom.org/2007/02/16/howto-remote-desktop-with-vnc-in-ubuntu-edgy-gnu-linux/
[04:50] <Soupy> usser what server do you use fro VNC on ubuntu?  Krfb?
[04:50] <Ward1983> what do i need to change this to? i'm on Feisty "XLIB = /usr/lib/libc.sa /usr/X386/lib/libX11.sa /usr/lib/libm.sa"
[04:51] <cooc> Frogzoo_, there is nothing that looks like a swap dir in my /dev/. How can I locate it?
[04:51] <idiot> how do i figure out if realtime-lsm is running?  and do i need a newer version of ubuntu to make sure it works properly?  i'm running edgy
[04:51] <usser> Soupy i only login remotely to an existing x session so i use x11vnc
[04:52] <rafaelscj> Soupy, why don't you use just FTP?
[04:52] <usser> Soupy x11vnc can be easily started from the terminal
[04:53] <Soupy> Im trying to connect to my desktop as a user and have full access not just file access
[04:53] <Xiittah> 7join #ubuntu-fi
[04:53] <Soupy> Like a citrix user does..
[04:53] <Soupy> I need full control of Firefox etc..
[04:53] <bunderburg> is it possible to enable swap on a usb stick while using livecd_
[04:53] <rafaelscj> Soupy, i used SSH...
[04:54] <usser> rafaelscj he wants gui too )
[04:54] <bunderburg> or to enable swap on HD while using live cd
[04:54] <Soupy> SSH allows just folder access
[04:54] <Ward1983> lol
[04:55] <bunderburg> >S
[04:55] <usser> 
[04:55] <usser> aawww
[04:55] <praet> Soupy: what si wrong with vnc?
[04:55] <Pici> Soupy: You could try freenx
[04:55] <codeshah> hi guys: I can remove nginx from my machine ... how can I force some application off?
[04:55] <usser> Soupy use vnc, krfb is cool too easy to setup
[04:55] <Pici> codeshah: How did you install the program?
[04:55] <Pici> !freenx | Soupy
[04:55] <Soupy> Pici im using freeNX do you use it?
[04:55] <ubotu> Soupy: FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[04:55] <codeshah> Pici: i dont recall installing it ... its in the synaptic manager ...
[04:56] <Soupy> I have some featurees I can not use

[04:57] <ticked> yesterday compiz-fusion killed my Ubuntu, every time i try to open something it starts to open then nothing is there...
[04:57] <codeshah> this nginx thing is annoying ... it restarts every time I try to remove it
[04:57] <darkriser> codeshah: any msg?
[04:58] <Soupy> ubotu do you use FreeNX?
[04:58] <Ward1983> ticked, you load compiz-fuion on boot?
[04:58] <codeshah> http://pastie.caboo.se/94901
[04:58] <cooc> ticked try alt+f2 and then type "compiz --replace --indirect-rendering"
[04:58] <Pici> Soupy: ubotu is not a human, it is a bot.

[04:58] <codeshah> Stopping nginx: invoke-rc.d: initscript nginx, action "stop" failed.

[04:59] <ticked> Ward1983 nope i diddnt
[04:59] <erUSUL> samtb: do 'sudo update-pciids' and try lspci again
[04:59] <darkriser> codeshah: then something like sudo /etc/init.d/nginx stop
[04:59] <codeshah> update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/nginx exists during rc.d purge (use -f to force)
[05:00] <Ward1983> ticked, to unload compiz-fusion do alt-F2 and type metacity --replace
[05:00] <darkriser> codeshah: so try -f switch :)
[05:00] <codeshah> yeah :)
[05:00] <ticked> what i want to know tho is, i want to put the i386 version of Ubuntu 7.04 instead of the AMD-64. can i just reinstall or will that mess up grub?
[05:00] <samtb> but shouldn't it list raw pci ids for unknown ones?
[05:00] <codeshah> ok its done ... now remove again?
[05:00] <codeshah> aaah
[05:00] <codeshah> didn work
[05:00] <codeshah> argh

[05:01] <codeshah> the service was stopped
[05:01] <SuperLag> ticked: grub is part of the install process, so you can redo your bootloader

[05:01] <renzo17> ticked: it will resetup grub for you when you install i386
[05:01] <darkriser> and update-rc.d worked?
[05:01] <codeshah> darkriser, yeah that it said
[05:01] <codeshah> removing any system startup links....
[05:01] <usser> rafaelscj win2003 server supports up to 1000
[05:01] <darkriser> great
[05:01] <darkriser> remove now
[05:01] <codeshah> then sudo /etc/init.d/nginx stop .. . it wasn in there
[05:01] <lumpki> ticked, just install the new kernel
[05:01] <lumpki> and reboot
[05:01] <codeshah> darkriser, same error ... and nginx restarted :(
[05:01] <ticked> SuperLag and renzo17 awsome, i thought it would but i was worried
[05:02] <darkriser> the start-up script must be somewhere:)
[05:02] <codeshah> yeah ... can I search for it somehow ? Hmm whre could it be
[05:02] <darkriser> try which nginx
[05:02] <rafaelscj> usser, winXP suports up to 10, right?
[05:02] <codeshah> /usr/sbin/nginx

[05:02] <lumpki> ticked, use synaptic...
[05:03] <ticked> had ubuntu on for two days and managed to kill it
[05:03] <usser> rafaelscj i dont think winxp is equipped with vpn server
[05:03] <lumpki> well, if your at that stage, i guess reinstall
[05:03] <rafaelscj> usser, yes, it is. XP pro
[05:03] <mosno> is qemu-make-debian-root broken in feisty for a base feisty install image? /usr/sbin/qemu-make-debian-root: 81: cannot open /tmp/mount.11888/etc/inittab: No such file
[05:04] <mosno> ie. maybe the script doesn't know about upstart
[05:04] <rafaelscj> usser, may you connect to my vpn server?
[05:04] <Pici> rafaelscj: If you have a Windows question, I suggest you ask in ##windows
[05:04] <ticked> i could try using synaptic but then i have to try to figure out how to get firefox back to its original state, i guess that would be fairly doable tho eh?
[05:04] <Ward1983> ticked, next time maybe you can choose a tutorial which doesnt allready load compiz-fusion on boot, its also better to be abel to switch (sometimes video can give troubles, etc)
[05:05] <usser> heh
[05:05] <ticked> i dont think the tutuorial had me load compz-fusion on boot but i could recheck
[05:05] <Ward1983> ticked, then what exactly is wrong with your comp? i'm a bit confused lol

[05:06] <darkriser> did it work?
[05:07] <Ward1983> ticked, ok, not sure if i can help, but i installed compiz-fusion at least 5 times 2 weeks ago or so
[05:07] <codeshah> darkriser, no ... the service stopped ... when i did apt-get remove --purge nginx, it restarted again .
[05:07] <usser> rafaelscj well the way i remember it it only supports remote modem connection or connectio through serial line
[05:07] <darkriser> and sudo update-rc.d nginx remove did work?
[05:08] <usser> rafaelscj for real vpn u may use openVPN
[05:08] <codeshah> yeah
[05:09] <Xteven> hi, can anyone help me debug networkmanager ?
[05:09] <codeshah> darkriser, yeah ... im gonna start removing stuff from this machine ... maybe its some weird dependenci
[05:09] <darkriser> this means the service shouldn't start after next reboot
[05:09] <Xteven> I'm connected to network (obviously), but the network manager is still looking for an IP address
[05:09] <darkriser> so try toreboot and remove it
[05:09] <rafaelscj> usser, there is tunneling for vpn connections.
[05:09] <ticked> i used this turorial http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/enable_compizfusion_in_ubuntu_feisty/  and when it loaded i had no windows borders so i was trying some fixes on that page and ubunto locked up when i tried this compiz --replace then when i booted up again my problem was there.
[05:09] <Xteven> one of the 2 dots is green, the other isn't
[05:09] <Ward1983> ticked, and you also tried alt-F2 and then typed metacity --replace ?
[05:09] <usser> 72.14.207.99

[05:12] <Vlet> Xteven: That generally means you've connected, but can't get an IP
[05:12] <zhanx> i am converting with alien and this time with scripts or is that a waste of time?
[05:13] <Vlet> Xteven: are you on wireless? Are you sure your password is correct and/or you're using the right type of authentication?
[05:13] <Ward1983> ticked, untill compiz --replace ? lol did you try metacity --replace or not
[05:13] <Ward1983> ?
[05:13] <dcox> join #apsc
[05:13] <ticked> hmm if its on that site i did, lemme look.
[05:13] <Ward1983> ticked, and can i have the tutorial link please?
[05:14] <Ward1983> ticked, no wait lol
[05:14] <Ward1983> ticked, metacity --replace is to UNLOAD compiz-fusion
[05:14] <Xteven> Vlet: I'm on wired network
[05:14] <zhanx> is there a chatroom out there for CAC cards and linux?
[05:14] <ticked> Ward1983 no it dont look likei tried metacity --replace
[05:14] <jiam> Xteven: where do you think is the problem then?
[05:14] <Xteven> Vlet: but /etc/init.d/networking already fixed my IP, I don't know what networkmanager is still trying to do
[05:14] <SuperLag> Guys, I need help with cron. I don't have a lot of time to devote to the issue. Anyone have an Amazon Wishlist item that they want? http://pastie.caboo.se/94989
[05:15] <Ward1983> ticked, then just try it now, that shoudl unload compiz and make your system work again, then you can try and fix it from there
[05:15] <zhanx> !info CAC
[05:15] <Xteven> do networkmanager and /etc/network/interfaces work together nicely ?
[05:15] <realnewguy> hey guys, everytime i try install a GTK 2.X theme it says "the file format is invalid" why is this?
[05:15] <ubotu> Package cac does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[05:15] <Vlet> Xteven: maybe it's confused :) Maybe try logging out and back in and see if it's still confused
[05:15] <Xteven> Vlet: I rebooted, and the problem was still there
[05:16] <n3tfury> ticked: if that fails you an you have to start over, use this tutorial instead http://forlong.blogage.de/article/2007/8/26/The-best-way-to-install-Compiz-Fusion-on-Ubuntu-Feisty
[05:16] <Xteven> does networkmanager have a log or a verbose setting ?
[05:16] <realnewguy> does ubuntu fiesty come with gtk 2.x?
[05:16] <jiam> Xteven: they do both work nicely
[05:16] <ticked> Ward1983 i have to leave now i a gonna be over where that computer is in a little bit, i will drop back in here then right after i try metacity --replace
[05:16] <ticked> thanks a ton and i will be back on here soon as i can

[05:17] <Ward1983> ticked, aaaah you're not at the computer :-) that's why i was confused
[05:17] <pdlnhrd> is there anybody with scsi knowledge that can tell me if a ultra320 drive would work in a ultra160 port but just at the lower speed?
[05:17] <n3tfury> lol
[05:17] <jiam> Xteven: where do you think is the problem then?
[05:17] <Xteven> jiam: then how come I have an IP address, but networkmanager think I don't ?

[05:18] <n3tfury> np man, best compiz-fusion tut i've seen :)
[05:18] <n3tfury> GL
[05:18] <Xteven> jiam: I think the problem is that networkmanager looks somewhere it shouldn't look, for an existing network config
[05:18] <Vlet> Xteven: searching ubuntu forums... can't find anything related... but you are connected right? maybe just life with it for now... especially if you have a static IP - you could just disable the network manager :)
[05:18] <genii> pdlnhrd: Yes they work fine on any SCSI controller.
[05:18] <jiam> Xteven: i dont why..but do you see any problem of connectivity?
[05:18] <ticked> hopefully not in XP but in ubuntu LOL
[05:18] <n3tfury> =] 
[05:18] <pdlnhrd> genii:  thanks... it is hard to find big ultra160 drives
[05:18] <Xteven> Vlet: well, I use dhcp and things work
[05:18] <genii> pdlnhrd: Yeah I know.
[05:18] <zegevrijt> Dutch consumer organisations . gets thousands of complaints about windows vista and has recomended people to look at ubuntu :)    was in dutch news today.. ..  is that worth some champagne?
[05:18] <Xteven> Vlet: but I can't help to wonder if networkmanager will think that all is lost at some point, and try to reset my network
[05:19] <Xteven> jiam: not yet
[05:19] <jiam> Xteven: where is the issue really? you can not connect?
[05:19] <Xteven> the issue is that networkmanager is not managing my network
[05:19] <mosno> lol "Debian" -- does this mean that Lenovo are allowed to ship with a non-Debian kernel to support newer hardware?
[05:19] <Xteven> it's doing *something* but I have no idea what
[05:19] <kaptengu> how can I change folder for received files with gnome-obex-server?
[05:19] <mosno> re. SEJeff's link
[05:19] <jiam> Xteven: then dont rely on it, use the command line and use of route or ip command
[05:19] <Urilockz> I tried mounting an iso with gisomount and the disk was not detected, is there a better iso mounting tool I can get?
[05:19] <Xteven> and in the meantime, I already have an IP address and connected to the network
[05:19] <Vlet> Xteven: well, not to say that this isn't a problem/bug, but you could go to your Preferences->Session and disable network manager from starting
[05:20] <Xteven> what use is networkmanager then ?
[05:20] <SEJeff> mosno, It probably means stock Debian. Maybe etch?
[05:20] <Xteven> i thought it was one of the top new features in 7.04
[05:20] <SEJeff> Xteven, roaming and wireless
[05:20] <jiam> Xteven: you can purge the route tables cache
[05:20] <Xteven> are you saying I should disable it ?
[05:20] <SuperLag> zegevrijt: is there an English translation of that announcement?
[05:20] <jiam> Xteven: i say use other tools to confirm what you have..dont rely on one
[05:20] <kaptengu> I don't want files to be received to Desktop...so how can I change folder for received files with gnome-obex-server?
[05:21] <mosno> SEJeff: ie. im running Feisty and the kernel in it is too old for my hardware -- so I dont see this working for new laptops, but they'd probably pick older lappies
[05:21] <Xteven> jiam: and how should I do that ?
[05:21] <SEJeff> mosno, You might try Gutsy once they release the beta at the end of the month
[05:21] <SuperLag> mosno: what do you mean it's too old for your hardware?
[05:21] <jiam> Xteven: learn the usage of ifconfig, route and the ip command
[05:21] <SEJeff> mosno, It works flawlessly on my T60
[05:21] <mosno> SEJeff: i tried a Tribe a month ago, I think i'll just wait for the stable release of Gutsy
[05:21] <Xteven> jiam: I don't think you understand the situation
[05:22] <Xteven> my problem is not that I can't get on the network, because I am connected
[05:22] <Xteven> and I know how to use all the networktools
[05:22] <mosno> SuperLag: it's a Santa Rosa laptop from Asus -- i had to build a 2.6.22.3 vanilla to get ether and wifi working
[05:22] <Xteven> but networkmanager for whatever reason, thinks I'm not connected
[05:22] <neverblue> morning
[05:22] <mosno> SuperLag: and with the wifi i had to grab iwlwifi and its firmware too
[05:22] <jiam> Xteven: do you rely on one tool to tell you things or you use other tools to confirm ?
[05:22] <SuperLag> mosno: what drivers is it using?
[05:22] <Xteven> and I want to know why
[05:22] <Xteven> jiam: do you see how I am talking to you ?
[05:22] <n3tfury> lol
[05:23] <n3tfury> wth
[05:23] <Xteven> jiam:  I am online
[05:23] <Xteven> and network works
[05:23] <Xteven> I need no tools to confirm that
[05:23] <Vlet> Xteven: Well, seems no one here knows why... I'd suggest searching the forums
[05:23] <jiam> Xteven if you believe its the nm then you can submit a bug report
[05:23] <mosno> SuperLag: ooh i like ether *was* supported in Feisty default kernel, it was just the wifi... *shrug* maybe i could have applied the patch to the default kernel, i just found it easier to patch against vanilla
[05:23] <Xteven> Vlet: ok, thx for the help
[05:23] <mosno> s/i like//
[05:24] <dcox> hello
[05:24] <JohnStys> i need help installing my ATI graphics card, all tht happens when i install driver is my xserver crashes, have tried all tutorials and drivers from all sources ( including the vendor) and nothing seems to work. please help me
[05:24] <stregone> YOOOOOOoo
[05:25] <jaime> flash doesnt work in firefox after Ive gone to a website that has quicktime videos, does anyone know whats up?
[05:25] <mosno> jaime: restart the browser (make sure the process dies)?
[05:25] <Vlet> JohnStys: When it crashes, it asks if you want to see the error messages... what does it say?
[05:25] <jaime> yeah I do that, but I want to fix it, not just work around it
[05:26] <Vlet> JohnStys: The relevant message should be near the bottom
[05:26] <JohnStys> device not found is all that i understand from it
[05:26] <mosno> jaime: nfi, browsers are evil
[05:26] <mosno> ie. the web is evil
[05:27] <jaime> I'm on gorillamask.net and I'm watching vids, and about every tenth vid is quicktime and I'm tired of having to close firefox and reopen it
[05:27] <kev_b> r irc.finalgear.com
[05:27] <stefg> JohnStys: so take 1.) a deep breath, b.) a systematic approach :-) First, what card do you have? (lspci | grep VGA)
[05:27] <jaime> does flash work in the kubuntu browser?
[05:27] <johnnylittle> hey guys
[05:27] <mosno> jaime: konqueror? :)
[05:28] <johnnylittle> i just built a new pc with quad core...
[05:28] <jaime> mosno, yes
[05:28] <stefg> jaime: #kubuntu will know
[05:28] <johnnylittle> does the new ubuntu like it?
[05:28] <JohnStys> I have a ATI Radeon x1300 VisionTek ( 256mb of gddr2 memory)
[05:29] <JohnStys> ubuntu says that the card is supported
[05:29] <JohnStys> i mean the website tht is
[05:29] <zhanx> ok i know its a bad idea but i need to install rpms
[05:29] <stefg> JohnStys: and you are now here on your ubuntu system? (probably running with some vesa or 2d driver) ?
[05:29] <johnnylittle> i tried a few linux distros and they would not boot
[05:29] <Sopor> test
[05:29] <JohnStys> vesa yes
[05:30] <johnnylittle> i really need a nice linux distro that will fully support my q6600 core2 quad
[05:30] <JohnStys> as far as i know
[05:30] <Vlet> JohnStys: Perhaps you could copy your xorg.conf to a backup (sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup) and then sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:30] <pupi120290> hello^^ I use ubuntu feisty and on my dell no boot splash is shown. i only can see a black screen. how can i fix that?
[05:30] <JohnStys> i thinj ubuntu craetes tht as default?
[05:30] <mjrclark> I am using a q6600 on gutsy fine, fine on fiesty before.
[05:30] <johnnylittle> nice
[05:31] <johnnylittle> does it have beryl?
[05:31] <Jowi> pupi120290, do you eventually get the login screen?
[05:31] <johnnylittle> i have 2 gig ddr2 and a 7600gs nvidia gfx
[05:31] <stefg> JohnStys: so have you followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI  ? If yes, what did fail?
[05:31] <pupi120290> Jowi. i do get the gdm login screen
[05:31] <rory> hey
[05:31] <johnnylittle> mjrclark how do you like your quad?
[05:31] <Vlet> JohnStys: yes ubuntu creates an xorg.conf by default, but it may help to regerate one
[05:32] <Jowi> pupi120290, try set the correct framebuffer resolution (or turn it off to see the text mode boot messages):
[05:32] <JohnStys> ill try tht, but i am sure i have alraedy done it and all thts going to happen is a xserver crash and i donty know how to get out of that blue sceen to my desktop, and i have to reinstall OS evertime
[05:32] <Jowi> !framebuffer | pupi120290
[05:32] <ubotu> pupi120290: If you would like information on framebuffers, please visit: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer
[05:32] <JohnStys> \(have reinstalled 17 times this week trying all the methods
[05:32] <pupi120290> Jowi: ill look at it
[05:32] <mjrclark> johnnylittle; L like it muchly, berly is called compiz-fusion now, and it worked before I started borking it using the gutsy alphas, worked a charm
[05:33] <rory> i dont really know if someone has ever heard of this problem but when i wanna read a document (pdf) which is made with latex, the font is really "ugly" totaly grubby
[05:33] <johnnylittle> great do they have the new ubuntu on newsgroups?
[05:33] <`Matir> is it just me, or is there no clear way to indicate whether a bug is in feisty, dapper, gutsy, etc. unless the reporter places it in the bug description?
[05:33] <Jowi> pupi120290, see the bottom of page for different framebuffer modes. 791 is quite normal to use.
[05:33] <johnnylittle> my isp doesn't allow torrents
[05:33] <holotone> I can ssh locally to my machine, but can't reach the same machine remotely; Do I need to do some portforwarding at my router to make this work?
[05:33] <`Matir> holotone, yes, normally port 22 unless you've changed it
[05:33] <holotone> `Matir: thanks
[05:33] <holotone> !
[05:33] <publico> hello
[05:34] <publico> hello
[05:34] <johnnylittle> should i get kubuntu or just get ubuntu and install kde? i dont know what way is better
[05:34] <kkathman> johnnylittle:  how would they tell the diff between a torrent and any other download?
[05:34] <stefg> JohnStys: don't panic. you can alway boot to recovery mode and restore the backup of /etc/X11/xorg.conf to return to the previous state. no need to reinstall
[05:34] <johnnylittle> the ports i guess
[05:34] <johnnylittle> if you google comcast and torrents it says but i didn't care to read
[05:34] <kkathman> well they might block traffic on certain ports, but that's inconsequential for the most part
[05:35] <johnnylittle> oh!
[05:35] <johnnylittle> i remember
[05:35] <usser> johnnylittle i ubuntu with kde would be better
[05:35] <johnnylittle> they dissallow uploading
[05:35] <kkathman> what??
[05:35] <johnnylittle> so it kills speeds
[05:35] <johnnylittle> eg.
[05:35] <kkathman> ive never heard an ISP disable uploading
[05:35] <johnnylittle> i get 14k MAX on torrents
[05:36] <genii> kkathman: Me either
[05:36] <zegevrijt> isp cant completely disable upload
[05:36] <zegevrijt> then stuff wont work
[05:36] <johnnylittle> i get 750k - 1.5 meg on news groups
[05:36] <kkathman> now ive heard of them monitoring and gating people that seem to have lots of download traffic
[05:36] <genii> bandwidth shaping etc
[05:36] <zegevrijt> you get 14 k on torrens coz you forgot to us eport forwarding in your router
[05:36] <johnnylittle> whats the newest release i'll check ng's for it
[05:36] <usser> kkathman heh monitoring i got a letter in my mailbox suggesting i stop with pirating movies ))
[05:36] <stefg> people there was a story on /. about comcast acting funny, but take that to #ubuntu-offtopic plz
[05:37] <johnnylittle> i'm not a noober i know how to port forward
[05:37] <kkathman> comcast is pretty big and I cant imagine them putting those restrictions on their subscribers - if they did I'd cancel so fast it would make them wonder
[05:37] <zegevrijt> well normaly that would result in 14k
[05:37] <stefg> people there was a story on /. about comcast acting funny, but take that to #ubuntu-offtopic plz
[05:37] <kramer3d> hey guys if I do wget something where is that file saved by defalut

[05:37] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:37] <johnnylittle> yeah i dont want to be off topic though
[05:37] <th30d0r3> hi, can someone help me? suddenly the whole theme is missing, no window borders no nothing....
[05:37] <usser> kramer3d to the dir u executed wget from
[05:37] <johnnylittle> soo.. whats the latest release..?
[05:37] <Jowi> kramer3d, in the directory you're currency in
[05:37] <Jygzy-> how do you 'ls' so that the newest files are at the bottom?
[05:38] <jetscreamer> the comcast thing seems kinda bogus to me.. i have comcast. i read that story. btw force encryption.
[05:38] <kkathman> usser:  yeah Ive heard of that - it usually turns out to be spam or a hacker that has found out about you and playing a prank
[05:38] <stefg> th30d0r3: did you activate desktop-effects?
[05:38] <th30d0r3> yes i did
[05:38] <johnnylittle> n/m i'll go google i guess
[05:38] <modor> I used Tovid to create a DVD. Tovid did not show any errors, and the DVD plays on my home theater. what is wierd is that I cannot copy this dvd, Tovid sees it as a blank
[05:39] <johnnylittle> it's still 7.0.4?
[05:39] <Jygzy-> how do you 'ls' so that the newest files are at the bottom?
[05:39] <usser> johnnylittle yep
[05:39] <modor> k3b sees it as a black disc, even though it plays on regular player
[05:39] <modor> blank disc i mean
[05:39] <stefg> th30d0r3: you need some setting in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to get it back.
[05:39] <johnnylittle> ubuntu uses emerge right?
[05:39] <stefg> !effects | th30d0r3

[05:40] <scratchme> Hi all.  Does anyone know a good guide for ircii/BX ?  I'm trying to get a basic script together to just split the screen for privmsg and channels, that's about all.  I have it split, but I'm looking for some detailed docs without typing /help every 5 sec.
[05:40] <johnnylittle> f that ubuntu is better anyways
[05:40] <Pici> Jygzy-: ls -ltr
[05:40] <johnnylittle> looks slick
[05:40] <Jowi> Jygzy-, -r should reverse the order
[05:40] <johnnylittle> and runs smooth
[05:41] <kramer3d> hi im trying to do sudo make uninstall for ndiswrapper and it keeps giving me "Not all installed files are removed, as different distributions install ndiswrapper files at different places.
[05:41] <kramer3d> Run uninstall as many times as necessary until no "removing" messages appear below."  and ive kept running like 50 times no luck
[05:41] <modor> I understand that Tovid disc burning is still experimental. The dvd it made works in normal player. media appear to be finalized. so why is it coming back as a blank disc?

[05:48] <brokenboxen> in vista, if i right-click the DVD drive icon, I get an eject option, which works even when the drive is empty. The analogous option in Ubuntu Feisty does not work when the drive is empty; a problem since my drive is broken, and can't be opened manually. Any suggestions?
[05:48] <private_guy> stefg: Okay, i have already assured that my network card works, well that whats Ubunutu's website says, my wireless is Belkin
[05:48] <thostr> anyone using vmware server with ubuntu 7.04?
[05:48] <private_guy> *Belkin Wireless Card
[05:48] <TheZanke> brokenboxen, paperclip
[05:48] <SlimeyPete> brokenboxen: use "eject" from a terminal?
[05:48] <pike_> TheZanke: do as TheZanke 'xhost +127.0.0.1' if that doesnt work do xhost - or xhost + to just disable it i forget which is permissive
[05:48] <genii> brokenboxen: eject -t /dev/cdrom
[05:48] <johnnylittle> does 7.0.4 like the geforce 7600gs?
[05:49] <SlimeyPete> brokenboxen: you could put the "eject" command into a shell script and shove that on your desktop for easy access
[05:49] <theron> johnnylittle:  I haven't had any issues with my 7900gts and 7.0.4
[05:49] <pike_> brokenboxen: paperclip?
[05:49] <slavik> any idea why grub would detect hard drives in a different order? (between being booted by BIOS and after ubuntu is loaded)
[05:49] <johnnylittle> ok
[05:50] <stefg> slavik: some bios do stupid things
[05:50] <johnnylittle> what about dual vga/dvi and component?
[05:50] <johnnylittle> theron
[05:50] <private_guy> Please somebody help me with my wireless card, why wont it connect to my router? It just says connecting and does nothing ?
[05:50] <TheZanke> pike_, it was + thank you
[05:50] <Textbook> brokenboxen: yeah, eject from the terminal works, I just tried it, so make a shortcut for it
[05:50] <brokenboxen> eject -t /dev/cdrom had no effect. paperclip no good either.
[05:51] <pike_> TheZanke: np
[05:51] <slavik> stefg: the interesting thing is that this is a sata board, but my IDE drives (on a controller card) are seen after my sata hard drive (when grub is loaded by bios)
[05:51] <private_guy> Okay one question, the MAC address on windows, is it the same on Linux?
[05:51] <uber_alles> prived
[05:51] <SlimeyPete> brokenboxen: try just "eject" on its own
[05:51] <SlimeyPete> no arguments
[05:51] <slavik> that is how I would expect it to be, but the kernel still assign it /dev/sdd (like it did on my old 32bit system)
[05:51] <slavik> private_guy: yes, the MAC address is stored on the card itself :)
[05:51] <orionr> private_guy: yes
[05:52] <marcfp> hi
[05:52] <TheZanke> brokenboxen, since all my HDDs are sata.. my cd drives are /dev/hda and  /dev/hdb.... you have to make sure though..
[05:52] <genii> brokenboxen: If you know what device use that in the command instead of cdrom eg:  eject -t /dev/sdc     or so
[05:52] <stefg> slavik: yeah, that's pretty plausible. the bios prefers the internal adapter, the kernel starts with the pata drives
[05:52] <private_guy> Then guys, howcome it just says Connecting to my router and does nothing else? I entered the details and WPA code 100% right.. so what im i doing wrong :(
[05:52] <slavik> private_guy: MAC address is almost like a serial number, except it can be manipulated within the network stack
[05:52] <marcfp> does anybody form this channel have an ahtec laptop ? i can't see the temperature of my hd
[05:52] <slavik> stefg: but because they are on a controller card (PCI), they appear as SCSI and get put in first, weird IMO
[05:53] <stefg> slavik: this is where libata for pata kicks in
[05:53] <stefg> !uuid | slavik
[05:53] <ubotu> slavik: 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)
[05:53] <private_guy> Then guys, howcome it just says Connecting to my router and does nothing else? I entered the details and WPA code 100% right.. so what im i doing wrong :(
[05:53] <z421> hello
[05:53] <slavik> stefg: that stuff is fine ... but the root parameter gets messed up when doing update-grub :(
[05:53] <slavik> !hello
[05:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hello - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:54] <slavik> !hi
[05:54] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:54] <slavik> bah
[05:54] <brokenboxen> just plain eject was the ticket (I looked it up, eject -t is to CLOSE the drive). I'm happy! Thanks!
[05:54] <BillH> Hi, thanks
[05:54] <private_guy> Then guys, howcome it just says Connecting to my router and does nothing else? I entered the details and WPA code 100% right.. so what im i doing wrong :(
[05:54] <stefg> slavik: get your #kopt= .... line in /boot/grub/menu.lst fixed
[05:54] <BillH> i have to leave to set up xchat for another server
[05:54] <slavik> kopt is fine
[05:54] <slavik> it's the root option :)
[05:54] <slavik> or is kopt different from the kernel line?
[05:55] <private_guy> Then guys, howcome it just says Connecting to my router and does nothing else? I entered the details and WPA code 100% right.. so what im i doing wrong :(
[05:55] <TheZanke> Someone please answer private_guy ...
[05:55] <private_guy> Yeah thanks :(
[05:55] <Pici> private_guy: There is no need to repeat so frequently.
[05:56] <Vlet> If no one has anything to sugggest, no one is going to answer
[05:56] <stefg> slavik: the menu.lst file is full of magic comments which control update-grub. look at the 'groot' line (not sure if it's exactly that, but you'll find if you open your eyes)
[05:56] <private_guy> Because nobody is answering me Pici, i have asked it from the beginning :(
[05:56] <Pici> private_guy: Perhaps no one is answering because no one knows the answer.
[05:56] <Textbook> and you keep asking every minute, when the same people who were here a minute ago didn't answer you
[05:56] <private_guy> Pici: Okay then sorry :(
[05:57] <slavik> stefg: found it, should I set it to 0,0 or 0,1? (0,1 is my /boot partition)
[05:57] <stefg> private_guy: but you are starting to spam the channel, and annoying peple are served /lst/ here
[05:57] <slavik> private_guy: what card?
[05:57] <private_guy> slavik: Belkin Wireless Card
[05:57] <slavik> usb?
[05:57] <private_guy> No
[05:57] <Vlet> What model?
[05:57] <slavik> pci? pcmcia?
[05:57] <private_guy> Slavik: Internal Wireless Card

[05:58] <UrbenLegend> vedisq: enable the canonical commercial repo
[05:58] <stefg> slavik: depends on what grub thinks is your /boot
[05:58] <slavik> ahh, do lspci and pastebin it
[05:58] <private_guy> I opened my motherboard but couldn't find anything :(

[05:58] <slavik> private_guy: pastebin output of 'lspci'
[05:58] <zhanx> ok having lots of fun trying to get my CAC reader working anyone think extracting the rpm sources and complining will help?
[05:59] <slavik> stefg: it thinks that it's 3,1 but that is wrong, my /boot is (0,1)
[05:59] <Vlet> private_guy: open a terminal and type: lspci > ~/Desktop/results.txt
[05:59] <Textbook> lol
[05:59] <Vlet> private_guy: and then paste the contents of the results.txt file to paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:59] <Textbook> he's gone
[05:59] <Blazeix> private_guy left
[05:59] <stefg> slavik: as seen from bios or as seen from kernel? The bios view is improtant
[05:59] <slavik> from bios
[05:59] <Vlet> oh, I have join/leave's on ignore :)
[05:59] <slavik> hence why it is the correct one ;)
[06:00] <vedisq> how do i indtall real player in ubuntu 7.04 x64
[06:00] <UrbenLegend> vedisq: hold on while i find the repo
[06:00] <vedisq> ok
[06:01] <UrbenLegend> vedisq: deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main
[06:01] <Carroarmato0> I need some help changing the keyboard layout of a laptop... I can't login because the default layout is set to Russian! :)

[06:01] <uber_alles> gg
[06:01] <slavik> Carroarmato0: ooh ... toughie, did you set the hotkeys to change groups?
[06:02] <Textbook> or listen to UrbenLegend
[06:02] <Carroarmato0> slavik: what do you mean?
[06:02] <slavik> Carroarmato0: in windows, you would use alt+shift or some such to switch layouts, did you set up the same in ubuntu?
[06:02] <private_guy> Hi there all, I have just found my Wireless Card's Model, WIreless G+ Desktop Card Belkin F5D70001
[06:03] <private_guy> Is that supported on ubuntu?
[06:03] <UrbenLegend> vedisq: then go to synaptic, click reload, and then search for real player, then install it
[06:03] <Carroarmato0> slavik: no that's not my situation...
[06:03] <slavik> private_guy: did you pastebin the output of lspci?
[06:03] <private_guy> slavik: What do you mean?
[06:03] <slavik> Carroarmato0: hmm ... try to change the language in session options or soemthing
[06:03] <Whisper> How come ubuntu is so slow in X in my machine? doesnt float when i move vindows eg...i got a core2duo at 2.13 ghz and 2gb ram and a nvidia card
[06:03] <Carroarmato0> slavik: I tried that but it doesn't WORK! :(
[06:04] <slavik> private_guy: run lspci in terminal and submit the results to pastebin
[06:04] <slavik> !pastebin | private_guy
[06:04] <ubotu> private_guy: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:04] <bannerman> Ever since I setup LDAP, when I use sudo and then do some other stuff and then try to sudo again it won't accept my password the 2nd time. I have to disconnect and wait like 10 mins before I can sudo again. It's driving me nuts. Anyone know what I might have broken?
[06:04] <private_guy> so I open the terminal and just enter "lspci"?
[06:04] <Carroarmato0> slavik: is there I file I could modify by mounting the hard disk in a live-cd session?
[06:04] <slavik> Carroarmato0: I suggest going to the gnome channel and ask them what you can change
[06:04] <private_guy> slavik: so i open the terminal and just enter "lspci"?
[06:04] <Textbook> lspci ~/Desktop/results.txt
[06:04] <slavik> Carroarmato0: yes there is, I just dunno what it is ...
[06:04] <slavik> private_guy: yes
[06:04] <private_guy> Textbook: are you talking to me :)?
[06:04] <Carroarmato0> slavik:  ok thx
[06:05] <slavik> the copy the text and paste it on that web site, not in this channel
[06:05] <slavik> Textbook: you forgot the rediction operator :)
[06:05] <Textbook> I was copying what you told him to write earlier :)
[06:05] <Textbook> so you're pointing out your own mistake :P
[06:06] <Blazeix> No, you need the '>' symbol
[06:06] <Textbook> oh, crap, you had that
[06:06] <Textbook> touche
[06:06] <Vlet> private_guy: it looks like that card uses the broadcom chipset, which may require you installing ndiswrapper... see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper

[06:07] <private_guy> Vlet: Thanks, I will check that out :)

[06:10] <Mexel> Hey guys.
[06:10] <Mexel> I have a question.
[06:10] <bannerman> Anyone know why sudo would be refusing my password the 2nd time I try to authenticate? Works the first time. Have to disconnect and wait 10 mins to sudo again.
[06:10] <Mexel> Many actually.
[06:10] <Vlet> Mexel: ask away
[06:10] <Mexel> Well i just installed Ubuntu the other day and like an UBER noob.
[06:10] <Mexel> Well i'm trying to install build essential
[06:11] <Mexel> via sudo
[06:11] <Mexel> and i got this error
[06:11] <stefg> bannerman: looks like someone installed failed-to-ban .... :-) no seriously i have no clue
[06:11] <Mexel> "Error: dependancy is not satifyable: libc6-dev|libc-dev"
[06:11] <slavik> Mexel: enable all the repositories :)
[06:11] <winbond> Mexel: sudo apt-get install build-essential?
[06:11] <bannerman> stefg: Hehe. Well thanks for reading my question anyway!
[06:11] <kramer3d> hi if I did sudo ./ndiswrapper_setup how would i undo that?
[06:11] <Mexel> wunbound, tried that.
[06:11] <stefg> bannerman: that's over ssh?
[06:11] <kramer3d> as in uninstall
[06:11] <bannerman> setfg: yeah.
[06:12] <bannerman> sorry about slaughtering your name heh
[06:12] <winbond> Mexel: id doesnt work, sudo build-dep build-essential
[06:12] <Vlet> Mexel: What did you install or do before that?
[06:12] <pupi120290> hello. the best resolution to show the splash screen on my dell computer is vga=771. the problem is that the boot splash screen is not correctly adjusted on screen. i see ubuntu-logo half of the logo at the right side of the screen and a half at the left side of the screen. can anyone help me?
[06:12] <Mexel> Ok brb, lemme try that

[06:12] <vedisq> how can i download videos from youtube in firefox ,i am using ubuntu 7.04
[06:13] <Vlet> vedisq: Download, or view?
[06:13] <will_> I know there is a firefox plugin for that
[06:13] <slavik> vedisq: "download embeded" plugin in firefox :)
[06:13] <stefg> bannerman: so i'd look at the ssh_config. there might be some overstrict policy on the server
[06:13] <corpse_> there is some sort of plugin
[06:13] <bannerman> stefg: ok cool, thanks!
[06:13] <corpse_> which downloads it it .flv
[06:13] <UrbenLegend> vedisq: use videodownloader extension
[06:13] <corpse_> format
[06:13] <Mexel> winbound, got another error ...
[06:14] <vedisq> thanx slavik
[06:14] <kramer3d> vedisq:  to download you need an extension, to view you need flash
[06:14] <Mexel> "sudo: build-dep: command not found"
[06:14] <will_> really stupid question - when I am looking at terminal instructions, sometimes there is a semicolon at the end of the line, am not sure If I should actually type in the semicolon or if that's just a code to enter something else, like a carraige return - can anyone help?
[06:14] <vedisq> kramer3d: i have flash
[06:15] <pupi120290> hello^^ my bootsplash screen is not shown properly. i get either a black screen or a wrong adjusted ubuntu-logo whatever i set vga=<mode>

Every doc i've sifted through is telling me to edit xorg.conf but my X resolution is perfect and i dont want to change it.  Is there a way to adjust resolution for virtual terminals without messing with X res?
[06:15] <UrbenLegend> vedisq: download embedded only downloads the flash app, not the video itself, it can however dl embedded quicktime movies
[06:15] <winbond> Mexel: what, something must be messed up with your install
[06:15] <angelic_venus> Hello all =). Does anyone know if the postfix package (2.3.8-2) on 7.0.4 is supposed to provide library file '/usr/lib/postfix/dict_sdbm.so'?

On my office computer I seem to have an extra option to open programmes in Wine Windows Emulator as well as the option for Wine. On my home computer I only have the option for wine. I do have Wine Doors on my home computer that isn't on my office computer. I have looked around and Wine Windows Emulator only seems to bring up info on Wine... I have
[06:18] <orko3001_>  uninstalled and reinstalled Wine - I think - but no luck. I don't know what I did different on my office computer
[06:18] <orko3001_> any ideas?
[06:18] <orko3001_> pls?
[06:18] <Vlet> Mexel: Did you install all the available updates first?
[06:18] <nickrud> Vlet: he had  an incomplete command :  Mexel: id doesnt work, sudo build-dep build-essential
[06:18] <private_guy> OKay im installing ndiswrapper, its my first time to install a program on Ubuntu, now can somebody help me to install it?
[06:18] <Arme> Anlar: your? :D
[06:18] <sam1338> how do i shorten my lvm /home partition by about 7gb and then create a new 7gb ext3 partition?
[06:19] <Mexel> nickrud, i tried that. got an error
[06:19] <Anlar> Arme: How is it setup?
[06:19] <slavik> private_guy: did you find a tutorial? if so follow it, if you have problems, then come and tell
[06:19] <Mexel> Vlet, no i have no connection to the net on that box.
[06:19] <private_guy> slavik: Can you guide me to one please :)
[06:19] <nickrud> Mexel: depends on the error; it's on the cd
[06:19] <slavik> sam1338: read the man page or docs on using lvm
[06:19] <arghh2D2> private_guy: System>Administration>Synaptic find and check ndiswrapper and click apply
[06:19] <winbond> Mexel: lol, yeah , that will do it
[06:19] <winbond> mex, u need net connection
[06:20] <Mexel> nickrud, i know it's there, i copied the .deb to my desktop.
[06:20] <arghh2D2> clickity clickity click
[06:20] <slavik> private_guy: no, since I never installed it. but ubuntuforums and the ubuntu wiki is supposed to have it
[06:20] <Arme> Anlar: I don't understand
[06:20] <private_guy> slavik: private_guy: System>Administration>Synaptic find and check ndiswrapper and click apply, is that all i have to do?
[06:20] <Vlet> Mexel: Then I wonder if it has something to do with the current version of build-essential relying on an updated version of a package that you haven't updated... just a thought
[06:20] <Mexel> winbound, i can't figure out how to connect to the net.
[06:20] <arghh2D2> private_guy: yes
[06:20] <slavik> private_guy: find a howto, but that is the start
[06:21] <zodium> what's a good password manager for ubuntu? like KeePass for windows +)
[06:21] <winbond> Mexel: are you on diaup or broadband
[06:21] <arghh2D2> I have a problem.  When I open a virtual terminal (ctrl alt fn) my screen resolution is off, huge fonts bleeding off the screen.  Every doc i've sifted through is telling me to edit xorg.conf but my X resolution is perfect and i dont want to change it.  Is there a way to adjust resolution for virtual terminals without messing with X res?
[06:21] <slavik> zodium: keyring :)
[06:21] <Mexel> winbound, 56k OOOOH YEAH
[06:21] <zodium> oh
[06:21] <zodium> :V
[06:21] <stefg> zodium: gnome-keyring, as it's already installed :O
[06:21] <nathan> my VLC and MPlayer work fine but the regular totem one just plays black.. how can I fix that
[06:21] <slavik> arghh2D2: you mean the tty? that has to do with passing the proper vga parameter to the kernel at boot time
[06:21] <zodium> just use VLC or Mplayer?
[06:22] <zodium> my totem doesn't work either, but VLC works great
[06:22] <winbond> mex, i cant help u with dial up sorry, but what deb package u said u have on the desktop?
[06:22] <slavik> nathan: may I suggest SMPlayer in case you stick with Mplayer? (it's a nice front end to mplayer)
[06:22] <arghh2D2> slavik, could you point me toward some relevant documentation please?
[06:22] <nathan> when I go to web pages it plays some things with totem
[06:22] <icecruncher> what can I do when i get a /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lharu error when running make?
[06:22] <arghh2D2> or recommend a good google search string?
[06:22] <stefg> nathan: that's a known bug with totem-gstreamer on some systems iirc. if you reall need totem you could install totem-xine as a workaround
[06:23] <slavik> arghh2D2: linux vga kernel option
[06:23] <Vlet> arghh2D2: Check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer
[06:23] <zodium> how the heck does keyring work >:(
[06:23] <nathan> stefg: I don't really care about totem if there's a way to have the system use a different default
[06:23] <slavik> arghh2D2: it will be something like 'vga=791' or something (that one is for 1024x768 I think)
[06:23] <Mexel> winbound, hte build-essential p[ackage
[06:23] <UrbenLegend> nathan: i had that problem when i didn't install all the codecs i needed, install all the gstreamer plugins, make sure you have the multiverse repos enabled
[06:23] <stefg> nathan: where's the probem? right-click-> properties-> open with...
[06:24] <arghh2D2> thanks slavik, Vlet
[06:24] <nathan> stefg: first off I want to double-click since it's faster. and secondly that doesn't affect streaming
[06:24] <Martin^_-> Guys, i got a really distubing problem. My mouse optical freeze, i need to reboot my computer so fix this, am on windows atm and i have read on internet that many other have the same problem!!

[06:28] <Pici> vedisq: I have not heard of that happening.
[06:28] <UrbenLegend> nathan: there is a preferred applications thing, but it doesn't set it for multimedia files, i am not sure though
[06:28] <nathan> nickrud: that lets you set 2 default programs, internet and terminal
[06:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Martin^_-: gksudo gedit etc/X11/xorg.conf - Find in that file - Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" -Replace with "ExplorerPS/2" is one other change I made..
[06:29] <vedisq> so its not possible

[06:29] <Vlet> nathan: If you want to change which application is used for open a file type by default, right click on one of the files, go to properties, and click the 'open with' tab
[06:29] <nathan> UrbenLegend: thanks I'll read that
[06:30] <Vlet> nickrud: hehe :)
[06:30] <stew> is there a way to 'subscribe' to a package so i will be notified when there are new uploads for a given package?
[06:30] <icecruncher> If I have my own libraries, where do I add them or copy them to?
[06:30] <nickrud> Vlet: it's a text substitution in xchat ;)
[06:30] <stefg> stew: update-manager takes care of that... already done for you :-)

[06:30] <ph8> it says translucent windows is buggy
[06:30] <ph8> *understatement cough*

[06:30] <Jack_Sparrow> icecruncher: Your own lib's.. as in collection of debs?  sorrry if that is a dumb question
[06:31] <nickrud> nathan: it would be nice to have a central location
[06:31] <Vlet> nathan: but as far as what application is used for streaming, that's set in firefox's preferences
[06:31] <stew> stefg: i'm looking to keep track of a package i'm backporting manually, so update-manager wont work in this case afaik
[06:31] <CraZy675> can you create a mysql database with just one line of shell? if so how?
[06:31] <nathan> nickrud: I agree; however I don't really care at this point since I only have 1 or two filetypes needing tweaking... but once I'm power using that will bug me for sure

[06:32] <lame> hello everzbody
[06:32] <nathan> vedisq: donno, I'm stuck on pornotube.com
[06:32] <icecruncher> Jack_Sparrow: so I was wondering where to add them so they get scanned
[06:32] <horza> I have just had the same problem with nginx
[06:32] <nathan> neol: don't use utorrent man
[06:32] <vedisq> lol
[06:32] <onats> what's the best email client available, that i can use to synchronize contacts also with my PPC?
[06:32] <nathan> neol: just use deluge, it's practically the same thing
[06:32] <horza> codeshah: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=453053&highlight=nginx
[06:32] <stefg> stew: so what are you trying to track? Source code changes in the CVS or ubuntu package updates ?
[06:32] <kidbuntu> when installing applications. where is the files installed. at "/" or at the "home". this is the first time i tried having separate partition for "home"
[06:32] <horza> nginx breaks Ubuntu badly
[06:33] <Vlet> neol: check out http://deluge-torrent.org/
[06:33] <usser>  onats that'd probably be evolution
[06:33] <onats> usser, better than thunderbird?
[06:33] <stew> stefg: ubuntu package updates
[06:33] <nathan> neol: I was a utorrent user so dude I'll tell you the differences if you want
[06:33] <tek-ops> my /var partition is always filing up, and I noticed that all the debs that have been installed through apt are kept in /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:33] <tek-ops> can I delete them?
[06:33] <horza> codeshah: Add "exit 0" as the 2nd line in /etc/init.d/nginx
[06:33] <neol> ok how do i run any software on wine . ?
[06:33] <tek-ops> or are they needed in case of removal?
[06:33] <nathan> tek-ops: what do you think
[06:33] <nathan> whoops
[06:33] <codeshah> horza, thanks . I should search the forums, not just google :)
[06:33] <lame> plz sby help me to setup grub cuz ubuntu dont start
[06:34] <tek-ops> nathan, my thought are they wouldn't keep them for no reason
[06:34] <lame> pm
[06:34] <tek-ops> I just want to know what the reason is
[06:34] <horza> codeshah: np. apt-get remove nginx will now work
[06:34] <zhanx> neol, wine ~/home/of/the/app/app.name
[06:34] <tek-ops> can anyone clarify why they're kept there?
[06:34] <stefg> stew: but of a different version? so you are on, say, dapper and want to track updates in Feisty?
[06:34] <stew> stefg: yes
[06:34] <genii> kidbuntu: Applications don't normally install into the home partition. most of them end up someplace like /usr/sbin    or places like that
[06:34] <neol> tek-ops: the reason i'm using utorrent is it automatically open the port, but azureus and bittorrent doesnot
[06:34] <Jack_Sparrow> icecruncher: You can sudo to create that folder and copy whatever to it.
[06:34] <shiv_j> how do I install new mouse themes that I downloaded from gnome-look
[06:34] <nathan> neol: you can use that to run utorrent -and it will work- but I'm telling you right now deluge is practically a clone of it and it
[06:34] <kidbuntu> genii: so its in the" /"
[06:34] <codeshah> horza, I deleted /etc/init.d/nginx ause i got annoyed... is there a way to get it back ? :)
[06:35] <nathan> it's open source and native =] 
[06:35] <tek-ops> neol that's not what i'm asking
[06:35] <Jack_Sparrow> shiv_j: drag and drop into the theme manager
[06:35] <genii> kidbuntu: Simplified immensely, yes.
[06:35] <shiv_j> Jack_Sparrow: thanks let me tryt
[06:35] <tek-ops> anyone here from the development project?
[06:35] <kidbuntu> genii: thanks.
[06:35] <Mexel> winbound, ya still there?
[06:35] <horza> codeshah: Try "cat > /etc/init.d/nginx" then type "#!/bin/bash" then "exit 0" followed by ctrl-D
[06:35] <icecruncher> Jack_Sparrow:  this is all as root, still don't work, unless I'm using wrong syntax (ld -L directory)
[06:36] <shiv_j> Jack_Sparrow: that did not work
[06:36] <usser> neol just prfix the *.exe file with wine like that "wine stuff.exe"
[06:36] <stefg> stew: hmmmm..... i could think of adding only feisty-security *sources* to your sources.lst, then update manager will alarm you if a new source package is available. But tat's rather ugly
[06:36] <lame> please help me to configure grub in pm. plz plz plz
[06:36] <Jack_Sparrow> icecruncher: go to term...  gksudo nautilus and see if you can make that folder... use that command sparringly.. nautilus is rather bloated
[06:37] <Mexel> "dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privlages"'
[06:37] <Mexel> o.O
[06:37] <icecruncher> Jack_Sparrow:  could you expalin?
[06:37] <Frogzoo> tek-ops: you can reduce the size of the apt cache in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20archive
[06:37] <Jack_Sparrow> shiv_j: explain did not work.. did you drop the tar onto the theme manager and get any response
[06:37] <usser> Mexel did u do sudo dpkg?
[06:37] <tek-ops> frogzoo, do I need to keep them at all?
[06:37] <stew> stefg: this is also for a headless remote server that won't be having gconf2 or synaptic installed
[06:37] <Mexel> erm. no xD
[06:37] <Mexel> haha
[06:38] <neol> usser: nathan Vlet thanks. ;) i will test both deluge and utorrent. one which works better, will use that. ;)
[06:38] <Mexel> That might be why.

[06:40] <icecruncher> Jack_Sparrow: it's like a linker you should have it... lol when I compile i get an error, so I try to add the folder with lybraries or copy them to a place where all the others are

[06:40] <Frogzoo> tek-ops: it just makes sense to have 10 or 20 meg put aside for apt
[06:40] <Jack_Sparrow> icecruncher: Sorry, I dont compile anything... maybe someone that does can help or this link...

[06:47] <cr0n> hi, any particular reason that the latest version of ubuntu, including the alternate and server cd/installation do not see a intel onboard RAID device, but every other distro does including fedora etc. ? i really want to run ubuntu but i need the raid to be seen at install already rather than software later on? the ubuntu install always sees two drives even though raid is configured, fedora etc shows one raid array, which is correct
[06:47] <winbond> Mexel:  ok so did u do sudo dpkg -i build-essential_11.3+i386.deb
[06:47] <freetos> the .so file that asmn require wanted to be put in /opt/tls/lib, should i add this path to a file(not sure which one) and run ldconfig, cause it doesn't work now
[06:48] <heatxsink> thx
[06:48] <zhanx> is there a way to run a command a su or sudo at boot?
[06:48] <Vlet> cr0n: are you getting errors about being unable to determine the size of the drives, etc?
[06:48] <Mexel> winbond: well i did sudo apt-get install build-essential

[06:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vga - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:48] <Mexel> winbond: and it said building tree etc.
[06:48] <tek-ops> is there any harm in deleting all of the .deb files in /var/cache/apt/archives ?
[06:48] <Mexel> winbond: but it couldn't find the deb package
[06:49] <winbond> Mexel: apt-get will not work without becouse the computer is not connected to the net, unless the packeage is on the cd
[06:49] <Mexel> winbond:  the build-essential IS on the CD.
[06:49] <heathen_> anyone know how to install feisty on an i series thinkpad?
[06:49] <cr0n> Vlet: nope, not at all, its all perfect just that it shows two drives. its SATA configured RAID
[06:50] <winbond> Mexel: which cd? ubuntu or urs?
[06:50] <cr0n> Vlet: and im talking about at the partitioning stage of the setup, doesnt show any form of RAID configuration as all the recommended sites with screenshots show
[06:50] <heathen_> ubuntu

[06:55] <Jack_Sparrow> private_guy: Stop

[06:56] <Carroarmato0> I need some help to enable an SD-card reader on a laptop of a friend.
[06:56] <ikonia> bannerman: then stefg's explaination is probably spot on
[06:57] <ylle> Like, the edgy eft version.
[06:57] <Hobbsee> private_guy: ...
[06:57] <heathen_> winbond: try using the go-to-folder button, place the cursor thems in there and try to use them
[06:57] <ikonia> ylle: define old, version or none-gnome version
[06:57] <ylle> nongnome version.
[06:57] <alesan> hi is there a tool to understand which CPU I have in my system?
[06:57] <private_guy> stefg: I just runned lspci and couldn't find ndiswrapper, do you want to see the results of the Ispci?
[06:57] <alesan> don't tell me /proc/cpuinfo
[06:57] <Tomcat_> alesan: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[06:57] <bannerman> stefg: isn't the administrators group called "adm" though
[06:57] <winbond> ylle: yeah , i need that too, the modded x-chat is stripped way too much
[06:58] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: what if i tried sudo apt-get install the_whole_deb_name_thinger   ?
[06:58] <Tomcat_> alesan: then... screwdriver :)
[06:58] <alesan> Tomcat_, I cannot understand if it's a core 2 duo or a p4 with HT
[06:58] <helpneed> does anyone have an ideea about pppoe truble?
[06:58] <alesan> the computer is open but I'd need to take away the heatsink etc
[06:58] <al> Thought I'd pop back and say it turns out it's the desktop I have to configure, not twinview
[06:58] <alesan> not so easy
[06:58] <al> ok bai ^_^
[06:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: copy the deb to that folder
[06:59] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: the var/cache/apt/archives foldeR?
[06:59] <stefg> bannerman: the truth is: admin is the sudoers group
[06:59] <helpneed> guys please
[06:59] <ylle> Hum.
[06:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: yes. copy build essientals to there
[06:59] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: ok let me try that, then what do i do  after that?
[06:59] <ylle> I guess I'll have to go and download all those -dev packages and compile.
[07:00] <private_guy> *Hi there guys, im having problems connecting to my Wireless ROuter! The wireless card is Belkin F5D70001 which is 100% supported on ubuntu, but when i click connect, it just says "COnnecting to Null" and does nothing, what shall i do ? :(
[07:00] <bannerman> stefg: yeah, I'm a member of a group called admin... just wondering where the username "administrator" is coming from
[07:00] <ylle> I remember having a belkin wireless card once.
[07:00] <winbond> heatxsink: where is the go to folder button? and which folder?
[07:00] <ikonia> private_guy: stop, you've just asked that, people are responding to you
[07:00] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: wdf.. "error: you do not have permissions to write to that folder" ...
[07:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: try to do it again.
[07:00] <stefg> bannerman: some windows user working on that box? :-)
[07:00] <bruenig> bannerman, there shouldn't be a user adminstrator unless you made one
[07:00] <ylle> I also remember snapping it in half.
[07:00] <ylle> hum.
[07:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: sudo  or gksudo if using gui or nautilus
[07:01] <tek-ops> the answer is
[07:01] <tek-ops> aptitude autoclean
[07:01] <tek-ops> or even aptitude clean
[07:01] <ylle> I've never used a belkin card that worked 100% for me.
[07:01] <tek-ops> thanks
[07:01] <private_guy> ikonia: I only said it once :S
[07:01] <heatxsink> winbond:  ?
[07:01] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: you totally lost me there, i'm a new Ubuntu user xD
[07:01] <fop__> can some1 point me in the direction of a good guide to enable xgl
[07:01] <ylle> But then again, I've only used 3 of them.
[07:02] <winbond> heatxsink: wrong nick, sry
[07:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: Answer first.. what are you trying to compile
[07:02] <arghh2D2> private_guy: read up on the howtos and patiently follow the instructions...i had a belkin wireless pcmcia card working under ubuntu once so dont get discouraged.

[07:05] <private_guy> Is Belkin F5D7001 Supported on ubuntu because im having problems with it connecting to my router :(
[07:05] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: but don't know how, i think i installed the dricer for my modem.
[07:05] <elvirolo2> i am trying to transfer 80 GB of data from my desktop computer to my laptop. I have already tried doing it using wifi and NFS, but it either gets very slow or just stops. I've been thinking of transferring the data via ethernet, as I have a Linksys WRT54G router. However, when i connect the laptop (192.168.1.103) to the router, it can"t ping the router itself (192.168.1.1) or the PC... why is that ?
[07:05] <Vlet> private_guy: It seems no one knows how to help you at this time. You might be better off starting to search ubuntuforums
[07:05] <winbond> eyec0n: did it crash when hitting backpage or when watching?
[07:05] <halsteadj> I know this is not the right IRC but I need some help.  Is their any GREP experts in here?  I need to know how to speed GREP up.  I want to search only the first line of 2500+ files for a text string.  Can anyone help or tell me where to look?
[07:05] <eyec0n> when hitting backpage
[07:05] <Carroarmato0> Frogzoo: hmm... i noticed I don't have any SD cards next to me... but thanks for the tip!

[07:05] <Jack_Sparrow> private_guy: A router is a router.. it dosent care what os you are running
[07:05] <winbond> eyec0n: firefox?
[07:06] <eyec0n> anything from mizilla
[07:06] <eyec0n> mozilla
[07:06] <sllik> I just installed the ubuntu server, and for some reason it can't read the data from the cdrom... any ideas?
[07:06] <ikonia> sllik: what happens ?
[07:06] <eyec0n> konqourer does it, galeon does it, mozilla does it, firefox does, etc, etc
[07:06] <sllik> if I ls /media/cdrom there is nothing there
[07:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: Find the modem by going to a terminal and typing dmesg | grep ttyS
[07:06] <stefg> elvirolo2: tip #1: look at rsync for that job.  Your router might be set to not accept icmp
[07:06] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: k
[07:06] <winbond> eyec0n: i know the fix for it, it worked well for me , maybe it will work for you, the fix is for firefox
[07:06] <ikonia> sllik: probably not mounted
[07:07] <eyec0n> winbond, where at?
[07:07] <winbond> eyec0n: hold a sec
[07:07] <jughead> I just installed kubuntu feisty and it installed the 2.6.20-16-generic kernel.  I have a P4 with hyperthreading and would like to install the i686 smp kernel.  Can I do that through the adept package manager?
[07:07] <elvirolo2> stefg: ok thanks :)
[07:07] <sllik> ikonia, if it weren't mounted would it still be in /media/cdrom?
[07:07] <eyec0n> winbond, this things been driving me nuts I gotta restart everytime I wanna watch a new video on youtube :p
[07:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: It should show up as ttyS5    or 1 or 2 or you get the idea
[07:07] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: "bas: command not found"
[07:07] <Megaqwerty> jughead: yes, it is listed under linux-image
[07:07] <stefg> !generic | jughead
[07:07] <ubotu> jughead: 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)
[07:07] <Vlet> sllik: sudo mount /dev/cdrom perhaps
[07:07] <ikonia> sllik: no - as there would be no data mounted on /media/cdrom
[07:07] <Jowi> jughead, I think the generic is smp enabled already... (someone correct me if i'm wrong)
[07:08] <Megaqwerty> jughead: oh, maybe not then
[07:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: Did you cut and paste?
[07:08] <stefg> jughead: no action to be taken, you're already running the optimal kernel
[07:08] <eyec0n> it seems to work better with firefox2 than Granparadiso

[07:08] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: ok wait, i types dmsg instead off dmesg, yes i got a bunch of numbers
[07:08] <ylle> uh..
[07:09] <Jowi> Sos``, /etc/udev/rules.d/
[07:09] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: last line is numbers and something about my Conexant HSF modem
[07:09] <winbond> eyec0n: you need to edit /etc/firefox/firefoxrc as root and add this line export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1
[07:09] <ylle> I think I found the uh, solution to my x-chat problem.
[07:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: Already not good as many conexant are winmodems or soft modems...
[07:10] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: right Well it's the only modem i got on there.
[07:10] <sllik> Vlet, there is no cdrom in dev
[07:10] <figmentj13> hello room
[07:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: What number/port is it using
[07:10] <ylle> just, go "sudo apt-get install xchat", and It'll work.
[07:10] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: lemme see
[07:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: It should show up as ttyS5    or 1 or 2 or you get the idea
[07:10] <sllik> ikonia, i got a cdrom in /media
[07:10] <ylle> winbond: heysuo
[07:10] <figmentj13> I just installed ubuntu
[07:10] <ylle> *sup

[07:11] <Megaqwerty>  !ask | figmentj13
[07:11] <ubotu> figmentj13: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:11] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: ttySHSFO
[07:11] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: is the last line
[07:11] <stefg> Mexel: are you trying to get ubuntu online over that modem? (sorry wasn't paying proper attention) . Jus a hint: most of the winmodems require the -386 kernels because the drivers cannot handel smp enabled kernels (which are default in ubuntu)
[07:11] <figmentj13> um i am trying to make my win mobile 5 phone work
[07:11] <Mexel> stefg: yes i am
[07:11] <jughead> thanks for the responses.  Just to be sure, is there a command to see if 2 CPUs are showing up?
[07:11] <Mexel> stefg: but i'm be back in a few minutes
[07:11] <Mexel> soryr
[07:11] <sllik> ikonia, what?
[07:11] <fyrestrtr> jughead: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[07:11] <figmentj13> to sync
[07:11] <ikonia> sllk you said you got a cdrom in /media
[07:11] <winbond> eyec0n: "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1" without the quotes, also check you xorg.conf and make sure its set to 24bit color
[07:12] <sllik> ikonia, yeah, but there is nothing there!
[07:12] <teimu> is there a way to make my vnc sessions with an ubuntu box use GDM, instead of X?
[07:12] <ikonia> sllik: yes, because its not mounted
[07:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: Test in terminal using  sudo screen /dev/ttyS0  You should now be in a Modem terminal window so type "ATZ" then return It should respond with OK
[07:12] <eyec0n> winbond, i'm retesting to see if it still crashes
[07:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: I have never seen one come up as ttySHSFO

[07:26] <Sos``> hmm....
[07:26] <Jowi> benkong2, because all runlevels start g/k/xdm
[07:27] <benkong2> Jowi; oh.... ok
[07:27] <Jowi> benkong2, simply remove it in /etc/init.d/rc3.d
[07:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: You might consider using your parents broadband for the updates.. burn to cd and carry it home
[07:27] <Jack_Sparrow> FofiN: I used fwcutter and was very simple
[07:27] <benkong2> cool thanks
[07:27] <Sos``> i still don't know how to make rules for unplugging USB device :/
[07:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: If they will let you have a partition on their system for ubuntu.. even better
[07:27] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: right
[07:27] <Jowi> benkong2, /etc/rc3.d i meant
[07:27] <kishan_> how to register my nic here

[07:28] <edulix> hi
[07:28] <edulix>  how can I listen to the audio embed to a jpeg image done with an hp (photosmart 735) camera?
[07:28] <marnik> I have a problem, I installed Ubuntu, grub boots both windows and ubuntu, but when I spend the whole day at the office and i get home at night, the bootloader no longer works
[07:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: I got these at frys in calif
[07:28] <marnik> i see "grub loading" for a fraction of a second and the pc keeps rebooting
[07:29] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: never heard of it, I'm in Albama myself
[07:29] <Sos``> marnik: run liveCD and type "grub-install" in terminal
[07:29] <marnik> is it possible that windows xp overwrite a part of the bootloader or someting like that?
[07:29] <FofiN> exit
[07:29] <Jowi> edulix, the few cameras that have that function that I have tried actually create an mpeg out of the jpeg + wav
[07:29] <Eo> DevideZero, I don't undestand, I'm a French little boy :p
[07:29] <Sos``> marnik: yes it does
[07:29] <arghh2D2> mexel, try best buy or circuit city and the like
[07:29] <nathan> I have apache going and it works in that I can sometimes reach my website but usually it takes forever and then says timed out...
[07:29] <Mexel> arghh2D2: Radioshak maybe?
[07:29] <marnik> Sos``: but it has happened to me twice now, yesterday and today, I'm not planning on booting from the livecd everytime I boot, so I'm looking for the problem
[07:29] <Sos``> can you tell me how to make a rule for unplugging a device :] 
[07:30] <codeshah> hey guys, I just installed apache2, but localhost doesnt work on my browser still ... also there is no /etc/apache2/httpd.conf (do I need this around?)
[07:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: You should have no problem finding a hardware modem that will work.. you can check our wiki for hardware that will work so you can look for different models
[07:30] <edulix> Jowi: so I had bad luck?
[07:30] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: ok
[07:30] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: wqhats the wiki link xD
[07:30] <arghh2D2> Mexel: better yet, order one online from a site like newegg.com ... even cheaper
[07:30] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware
[07:30] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[07:30] <Sos``> marnik: windows antivirus is probably rtestoring the mbr
[07:30] <Mexel> arghh2D2: Tigerdirect?
[07:30] <arghh2D2> Mexel: not sure about radio shack
[07:30] <Jowi> edulix, no, that's not what I meant. try to open it in totem or mplayer.
[07:30] <nathan> I have apache going and it works in that I can sometimes reach my website but usually it takes forever and then says timed out... that's if I use my other computer. if I use the same computer as apache and do localhost, it works
[07:31] <edulix> ok I'll try
[07:31] <marnik> Sos``: that might be the problem, but I don't have the antivirus password :/
[07:31] <arghh2D2> Mexel: just be sure to check the site Jack_Sparrow just ubotu'd for you
[07:31] <marnik> Sos``: thanks for the info, now I know where to start
[07:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: One other option.. get a usb stick... set it up as persistent. run livecd in persistent mode on parents computer and save your archives to the usb
[07:32] <marnik> is it possible to create an USB-drive to use as bootdevice? That way I can boot into linux using the USB stick
[07:32] <edulix> jowi: bingo
[07:32] <qwxyr> is the table 'PREROUTING' in iptables usually there by defaulte, or do I need to do something?
[07:32] <Jowi> edulix, :)
[07:32] <sllik> ikonia, if I do mount /cdrom it says "Special device /dev/scd0 not found"
[07:32] <Jack_Sparrow> marnik: yes
[07:32] <gccfanboy> does anyone use alex file system on linux?
[07:32] <nathan> do I want totem-xine or totem-gstream for streaming videos?
[07:32] <DevideZero> Eo , can you see this ? http://yes.walla.co.il/?w=1/7082/1156790
[07:32] <remi____> hi all

[07:33] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: on that wiki
[07:33] <Eo> DevideZero, okay
[07:33] <marnik> Jack_Sparrow: would you know where to start?
[07:33] <ikonia> sllk for some reason  your cdrom is not being seen by your system
[07:33] <ikonia> sllik: check your syslog
[07:33] <remi____> what is the most "finished" and "polished" light distro derived from ubuntu ?
[07:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: I know that model of airlink works from personal experience...
[07:33] <gener1c> jack is as free as a sparrow
[07:33] <Jack_Sparrow> marnik: I googled it and found linux on usb or something like that
[07:34] <Eo> DevideZero, it is in Chinese and I do not speak Chinese
[07:34] <gener1c> DSL?
[07:34] <zarul> gosh...anyone had this error before  "E: Invalid record in the preferences file, no Package header
[07:34] <zarul> "
[07:34] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: Well i can't find anything on tigerdirect about the AirLink
[07:34] <nathan> I have apache going and it works in that I can sometimes reach my website but usually it takes forever and then says timed out... that's if I use my other computer. if I use the same computer as apache and do localhost, it works
[07:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: let me see what I can find
[07:34] <zarul> what
[07:34] <Jowi> edulix, i really like that feature. looking at a pic and hearing the sounds is for me more alive than a movie. strange but nice.
[07:34] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks ALot jack.
[07:35] <edulix> =)
[07:35] <zarul> tell me if you have the solution for that..google is not helping with that..
[07:35] <DevideZero> someone can see this ? http://yes.walla.co.il/?w=1/7082/1156790
[07:35] <edulix> Jowi: now I need to extract the sound to an external audio file.. do you know how to do that? note that only mplayer opened the file

[08:08] <Akiro> thanks guys i think i got it

[08:09] <bravo_delta> steveatlocalhost: ok, thank you

[08:09] <steveatlocalhost> bravo_delta, sorry i cant be more helpful
[08:09] <ticked> i think i am running into trying to do stuff on AMD-64 version
[08:09] <ticked> running into problems that is
[08:09] <stefano_> pupi120290, o i think the tool isnt just right. youre from germany? then check out wiki.ubuntuusers.de, search for bootsplash, but the startup manager is a nice tool anyways
[08:10] <_johnjosephbachi> am i correct that i cannot upgrade from one LTS to another, i have to go through an unstable first?
[08:10] <steveatlocalhost> _johnjosephbachi, the other versions are not unstable, they just have less support. but yes, unless you use a CD and reformat
[08:10] <steveatlocalhost> brb food
[08:10] <Aviator> can somebody explain why i have this timezone oddities?
[08:10] <wimpies> steveatlocalhost : You are talking X here.  I would like to export the disk over NFS so the mount point must be the same.
[08:11] <_johnjosephbachi> steveatlocalhost: right, not unstable, just didn't know how to refer to them :)
[08:11] <stefano_> _johnjosephbachi, you can upgrade to feisty if you want or wait for next month and upgrade to gusty, its not less stable
[08:11] <bravo_delta> steveatlocalhost: anyway, thanks for your help, bye ;)
[08:11] <pupi120290> stefano_: im from germany: ok ill chek the ubuntu-wiki
[08:11] <_johnjosephbachi> stefano_: i think the ubuntu of "support" is a little ambiguous to me in this case
[08:11] <elvirolo2> can anyone tell me why I can ping my router from my desktop computer, but not from my laptop when the latter is connected via ethernet?
[08:11] <_johnjosephbachi>  /s/ubuntu/ubuntu notion
[08:12] <Aviator> i have set timezone to gmt+2, but the clock reports gmt-2
[08:12] <stefano_> pupi120290, ubuntuusers.de is the place to go if youre german, great community, huge wiki and everything, i'm just here to help, just about every question i have is aready answered in their wiki
[08:12] <PriceChild> _johnjosephbachi, support meant critical security and bug fixes, paid support by canonical, and the goodwill of the community.
[08:12] <_johnjosephbachi> PriceChild: ah okay.
[08:13] <codeshah> hey, guys, I have a regular US Intl Keyboard layout, but my quotation mark does not work ... any dieas?
[08:13] <_johnjosephbachi> thanks folks.
[08:13] <codeshah> I have to press twice to get this 
[08:13] <pupi120290> i know. i have to set the usplash size then set the correct size in the menu.lst
[08:13] <ianm_> is there software for finding duplicate files in a directory tree?
[08:13] <Aviator> codeshah, it works like that if u set keyboard to us
[08:13] <Aviator> change it to something else
[08:14] <stefano_> _johnjosephbachi, also, all versions experience the same support (in terms of bugfixes and everything), the LTS is just supported longer, intresting if you dont plan to change your system in a while, or if you have a system that is really critical and has to run smoothly all the time, then its likely you dont want to change anything
[08:14] <codeshah> aviator, oh hmm thats odd ... ok .
[08:14] <stefano_> _johnjosephbachi, i encourage you to upgrade to gutsy in a month

After reinstall, the printers don't actually print.  I've added/removed both USB printers, numerous times, and all the jobs do is go from a status of printing: to stopped: .... been googling it, but not having much luck
[08:18] <_johnjosephbachi> stefano_: okay great. thanks. we'll use the newest version now then, and upgrade to LTS next month and stick with that
[08:19] <ompaul> NoVaRaif, why server, if you want to do printing from that you need to do cups and that is beyond the help I can offer in this channel, it involves a reasonable amount of reading

[08:32] <wolfwalker>  What I have: A laptop with a slow internal hard drive with Win XP on it, and a fast 500 gb external hard drive. What I want to do: Install Ubuntu to the external hard drive, but in such a way that if the laptop is connected to the external hard drive it will boot Ubuntu, but if it's not connected it will boot Windows.
[08:32] <PriceChild> xMMGx, how do you connect to the internet?
[08:32] <wolfwalker>  Is this possible?
[08:32] <PriceChild> Aviator, please don't give "advice" like that :)
[08:32] <Falstius> wolfwalker: does the laptop support boot from USB?
[08:32] <xMMGx> PriceChild: uhm,i have broadband, router .. :s
[08:32] <wolfwalker>  If it is possible, would it be better to set bios to boot from usb hard drive first, or to use a small distro (DSL?) just for the bootloader?
[08:32] <Aviator> he said he used virtualbox
[08:32] <wolfwalker>  Yes, USB boot
[08:32] <PriceChild> wolfwalker, its "probably" possible but not worth the effort imo
[08:33] <PriceChild> xMMGx, wireless, usb ethernet?
[08:33] <Falstius> wolfwalker: just configure the bios to boot usb first.  Then you don't have to mess with multiple boot loaders
[08:33] <xMMGx> PriceChild: usb ethernet
[08:33] <wolfwalker>  So grub is installed on the external hard drive?
[08:33] <big_area> can gparted resize partitions without deleting their contents

[08:34] <xMMGx> PriceChild: oops, ethernet
[08:34] <Falstius> wolfwalker: you should google for how to install ubuntu to an external drive.  You might have to use something like syslinux.

[09:09] <Sos``> hey, I made a file /etc/udev/rules.d/25-local.rules http://rafb.net/p/Y3vLYe12.html and when i connect my device, nothing happens... what's wrong?
[09:09] <Xiittah> how do i go back to the reconfiguration?
[09:09] <garette> P_Kable,  :?
[09:09] <MezhaKuilis> i tried to restart x server /init.d/?dm probably, and got black window
[09:09] <MySpace> but now I want to use Ubuntu as my main OS
[09:10] <heatxsink> anyone?
[09:10] <rathel> How can I secure-erase a file?
[09:10] <MySpace> and In undecided between vanilla ubuntu and Edubuntu for for the PC that the whole family uses
[09:10] <Sos``> scrap your hd :P
[09:10] <savvas> lol
[09:11] <savvas> rathel: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/utils/secure-delete
[09:11] <s_v_e_n> @rathel: erase it and dd the free space an the patrtiton with zeros
[09:11] <MySpace> Um using Uvuntu ultimate in me PC but I dont know wich distro to go with for the family PC
[09:12] <savvas> s_v_e_n: why don't you explain him how to reinvent the wheel while you're at it? :p
[09:12] <MySpace> any sugestions would be apreciated
[09:12] <xjkx> what do i use to burn a vcd?
[09:13] <s_v_e_n> rathel: are you familiar with the commandline and the dd command ?
[09:13] <savvas> MySpace: there is no ubuntu ultimate.. unless I'm wrong. Kubuntu has a lot of applications and if you need a lot of stuff pre-installed, then kubuntu is the way to go :)
[09:13] <MySpace> there is about 4  Kids and 2 adults that will be using that PC and its cause of the kind i was pondering on Edubuntu
[09:13] <xMMGx> hmm, PriceChild is busy
[09:13] <rathel> Thanks for the solutions.
[09:13] <s_v_e_n> savvas: I didntknow there is such a package
[09:13] <savvas> xjkx: maybe k3b supports it, i'm not sure though
[09:14] <rathel> s_v_e_n, No but I'll look into it.
[09:14] <xjkx> no k3b please
[09:14] <xMMGx> can somebody help me connect to the internet with ubuntu (on virtualbox) ?
[09:15] <s_v_e_n> rathel: the solution to use secure-delete istmuch better , i guess
[09:15] <savvas> xjkx: well.. then you'll have to use brasero for gnome :) but there is no "make vcd" option :p You'll have to manually set any folders if they are required
[09:16] <xjkx> i have brasero and as you said it has no dvd project
[09:16] <craig_> can someone tell me how I would prevent KDE from booting on startup and have the system boot into the console?

I Google for a solution and found a referance to a driver called foo2xqx , that was designed for the printer, but I don't find a deb for it. Some one please help!
[09:20] <bruenig> frojnd, that sounds about right
[09:20] <Tausen> chief: Thanks, but I have it installed, but I start singleplayer
[09:20] <Vlet> kane77: Check out a package called 'bootchart'
[09:20] <frojnd> bruenig, yes but why is a process still there
[09:20] <Tausen> *but I can't start singleplayer
[09:20] <vreer> frojnd: only when using sudo it works
[09:20] <Martin^_-> Anyone can tell me why my optical mouse freezez.
[09:20] <MySpace> the media HDD has a fat32 partition for sharing with other OSs
[09:20] <ConstyXIV> would 4GB be good enough for a basic install of ubuntu and a few apps?
[09:20] <chief> Tausen: are you sure you copied all the pk4 files over?
[09:20] <vreer> ConstyXIV: yes
[09:20] <bruenig> frojnd, what process is it?
[09:20] <kane77> Vlet, does that draw time after you enter login info?
[09:20] <Martin^_-> Anyone can tell me why my optical mouse freezez.
[09:20] <Tausen> chief: Yeah, I even deleted them and recopied them over
[09:21] <frojnd> bruenig, vreer snd-bt-scod(5641):
[09:21] <Vlet> kane77: not sure :-/
[09:21] <bruenig> frojnd, that some sound thing?
[09:21] <frojnd> bruenig, I think its bluetooth
[09:21] <Vlet> kane77: sounds like something is stalling... like you have to wait for something to time out or something
[09:21] <chief> Tausen: so, you get the intro vids and then get the game menu, what happens when you try to start a singleplayer game?
[09:21] <heatxsink> non-graphical installer for ppc please?
[09:22] <Martin^_-> Anyone can tell me why my optical mouse freezez.
[09:22] <bruenig> frojnd, I don't know, perhaps it respawns
[09:22] <Tausen> chief: I click new game, select skill level, and the loading starts. Then when its when like 15%, it crashes back to the main menu
[09:22] <MySpace> but as for the HDD with the actual OS its a 160GB that had  a 100GB partiotion for  XP so I got like 48 GB for Ubuntu
[09:22] <kane77> Vlet, yeah.. well I'm trying to find out what it is...
[09:22] <heatxsink> can someone please point me to the non-graphical installer for ppc please?
[09:22] <chief> Tausen: can you start a multiplayer game?
[09:22] <heatxsink> the live cd isn't working for me
[09:22] <Martin^_-> Anyone can tell me why my optical mouse freezez.
[09:22] <Tausen> chief: One sec, I'll go try...
[09:22] <vreer> Martin^_-: more info plz
[09:22] <Sergemine> Hi guys! I just got a HP M1005 MFD Priner/Copier/Scanner and am trying to install it in ubuntu. Has anyone aver been able to use it with Ubuntu? I Google for a solution and found a referance to a driver called foo2xqx , that was designed for the printer, but I don't find a deb for it. Some one please help!
[09:23] <Martin^_-> vreer , my mouse ( optical ) just freezez, and i need to reboot my computer!
[09:23] <Martin^_-> At random times
[09:23] <some_ux> whats this talk about an alternate CD for RAID ?
[09:23] <Martin^_-> Sometime i can be on for 2 hours, sometimes 10 seconds
[09:23] <MySpace> and I want o have a separet /home partition and a swap partition but I have no I die how big the Home partition should be
[09:23] <some_ux> Alternate Boot CD
[09:23] <kane77> Vlet, it might be: 1) network (I recently tried to set up a ad-hoc wifi) 2) bluetooth.. I tried setting up a PAN 3) graphic card (??)
[09:23] <blaster> conect and reconect the mouse see if that helps
[09:23] <kane77> Vlet although I have no idea where to look for causes...
[09:23] <vreer> Martin^_-: hm, dunnothere; may check if urq is not used double
[09:24] <vreer> irq*
[09:24] <Martin^_-> vreer explain more, am new and trying to learn linux but this problem making it hard
[09:24] <vreer> Martin^_-: isn't unique for linux
[09:25] <Martin^_-> Don't know what you're talking about anyway
[09:25] <vreer> it's too long ago for me to check out; sry
[09:25] <MySpace> I was thinking out of the 48GB haveing a 10GB for  Ubuntu,36 for home and 2 GB for swap. Is that OK or should the Ubuntu partitione be bigger then the home partition?
[09:25] <vreer> Martin^_-: that i do
[09:25] <vreer> yo are just disappointed
[09:25] <Martin^_-> Also vreer i need to add 1280x1024 as resolution
[09:25] <savvas> xjkx: try the application devede
[09:25] <vreer> maybe someone else knows more
[09:25] <weezy> Martin: Does the light turn off?
[09:25] <Xiittah> Im trying to reconfigure my x server but when it ask for the color depth and i choose 24 bit the command screen comes over the screen and i cant continue reconfigurating
[09:25] <Xiittah> how do i go back to the reconfiguration?
[09:26] <Martin^_-> i have added the 1280X1024 in xorg.conf
[09:26] <Tausen> chief: I just tried - can't create a multiplayer game either
[09:26] <Martin^_-> And restart X, but still icant have 1280X1024 as resolution
[09:26] <bruenig> MySpace, that sounds about right, I would personally make swap smaller but if you don't think you need the disk space then whatever
[09:26] <Sergemine> Hi guys! I just got a HP M1005 MFD Priner/Copier/Scanner and am trying to install it in ubuntu. Has anyone aver been able to use it with Ubuntu? I Google for a solution and found a referance to a driver called foo2xqx , that was designed for the printer, but I don't find a deb for it. Some one please help!
[09:26] <chief> Tausen: the only thing I can recommend is to start it from a console. When it crashes, look over the output in the Terminal and try Googling around. Sorry I can't be more help.
[09:27] <MySpace> thanks
[09:27] <MySpace> one last question
[09:27] <Tausen> chief: Alright, thank you very much. You don't know anything about "idPlayer::UpdateModelSetup() - Can't find default model (model_player_marine)" then?
[09:28] <MySpace> when i install a progran tu ubuntu that has a separet home partiotion does it install to the os partition or to the ho0me partition?
[09:28] <chief> Tausen: not really
[09:28] <`Aleks`> Hi all
[09:28] <Tausen> chief: Alright, thank you very much for your help
[09:29] <scorp123> MySpace: the home partition is just for your own settings ... programs always go to the OS partition, e.g. /usr ....
[09:29] <savvas> MySpace: it installs in the / (root) partition, in /home/user/ you will have every program's configuration for each user separately
[09:30] <MySpace> nice
[09:30] <Vregh> Hey, uh, what console command do you use to re-enable the mouse if, like a crashed program or something makes it stuck?
[09:31] <MySpace> so say in that scenario if I do a clean intall of a new distro the all my programs would be gone but not the settings?
[09:31] <weezy> what wireless cards do you guys use?  I keep buying crappy ones not well supported by ubuntu
[09:31] <scorp123> MySpace: that's the idea behind a separate /home partition
[09:32] <MySpace> so i would only have to reinstall the os clean and the progrmas but no redo my settings righ?
[09:33] <savvas> MySpace: exactly :) I just formatted the / partition and installed the 64-bit version
[09:33] <recon> Is there a way to tell GPG to automatically fetch a public key if I try to use one I don't have?
[09:33] <scorp123> MySpace: only if you are so wise not to overwrite your /home partition again during the installation :-)
[09:33] <winbond> so how do i install new mouse icons?
[09:33] <MySpace> I apreciate that heads up
[09:33] <savvas> recon: that would be a breach of security, manual commands is the way to go, or in the software sources (system > administration)
[09:34] <MySpace> I shall be carefull on new distro installs
[09:35] <xMMGx> can anybody help me ! connect to the internet with ubuntu (on virtualbox) ?
[09:35] <MySpace>  dude's im so exited to finally fully jump in the linux/Ubuntu wagon
[09:35] <bruenig> don't slash those two
[09:36] <MySpace> I'v noteced more and more people converting to linux after vista for some reason
[09:36] <Ornedan> Which suspend/hibernation system is used in Ubuntu?
[09:36] <vreer> xMMGx: i'm sorrydunno about virtualbox, exc. its' some virtualisation thing
[09:36] <rathel> I'm still new to scripting, how would I make a script to back a folder and subfolders into another folder overwriting with the newly modified files but keeping the rest the same?
[09:36] <savvas> xMMGx: vmware server would be easier. try the NAT way on virtualbox, it should be easy enough. By the way, the only operating system I managed to install was windows on virtualbox, it doesn't even support windows 98/Millenium
[09:36] <scorp123> MySpace: "some reason" ?? I'd say Vista is *the* reason :-)
[09:37] <vreer> rathel: sounds like you want a good backup program :)
[09:37] <MySpace> lol
[09:37] <rathel> vreer, Know of 1?
[09:37] <vreer> (can't help you scripting)
[09:37] <bruenig> vista is not the reason
[09:37] <MySpace> Im goint to convert every one in my family by next summer
[09:37] <bascule> scorp123: just for interest can you expand on that cause it isn't that bad for bugs/instability IMO
[09:38] <Ornedan> rathel: Not a script, but sounds like rsync might help you
[09:38] <sanzky> hi, does anyone knows how to bridge 2 connections? I have a dhcp server with 2 interfaces, I need to bridge them
[09:38] <savvas> MySpace: $500 was enough for me to buy a $20 book about linux and install a free and readable operating system :)
[09:38] <scorp123> bascule: I don't need to expand anything. Vista is from Microsoft. Microsoft sucks. End of topic. :-)
[09:38] <bruenig> people buy linux books?
[09:38] <MySpace> yup
[09:38] <vreer> rathel: amanda is famous
[09:38] <rathel> Ornedan, Okay I'll look into it thanks.
[09:38] <some_ux> What is LVM ?
[09:38] <vreer> or idd rsync
[09:38] <xtknight> !LVM | some_ux
[09:38] <ubotu> some_ux: 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
[09:38] <savvas> yes bruenig, people support people who write about it :)
[09:38] <xtknight> some_ux, logical volume management for doing RAID and combining disks
[09:39] <bruenig> savvas, but everything is on the interwebs I mean why would you do that
[09:39] <MySpace> Im going to go for a dual boot of vista and ubuntu myself on my PC
[09:39] <foug_> has anyone downloaded the new version of opera? 9.5? I'm confused as to which version to get, you can see them all here; http://snapshot.opera.com/unix/9.50-Alpha-1/
[09:39] <bascule> scorp123: sure, but I don't see that many machines beung returned with software impossibilities as yet and I work in a *really* busy retail store
[09:39] <xtknight> foug_, do you know your machine type?
[09:39] <bruenig> foug_, intel-linux more likely
[09:39] <xtknight> foug_, probably ppc-linux, intel-linux, or x86_64-linux
[09:39] <RoboticTao> rathel: Are you using Bash?
[09:40] <foug_> xtknight: well i have an amd processor, if there's a command i can put into terminal i can find out
[09:40] <savvas> bruenig: because I love to read typed text with a hard cover - and unfortunately i don't have a printer :)
[09:40] <xtknight> foug_, uname -a
[09:40] <MySpace> i got to say in just going to use vista for gaimg and mybe work
[09:40] <scorp123> bascule: why oh why would anyone *return* a machine? Just boot it with Ubuntu, *pooof!!* Vista is gone and you get a real OS.
[09:40] <MySpace> i mean gaming and work
[09:40] <foug_> xtknight: hmmm, didn't really give me a good answer. i686? lol
[09:40] <xtknight> foug_, 32-bit
[09:40] <chief> foug_: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[09:40] <xtknight> foug_, i686=32-bit, x86_64=64-bit
[09:40] <bruenig> savvas, seems easier to just identify something you don't understand google to find it out and just do that until you know it all
[09:40] <bascule> scorp123: not that many retail buying punters know this as yert
[09:40] <rathel> RoboticTao, Yeah.
[09:41] <xtknight> foug_, i686 happens to be called intel there so use intel-linux
[09:41] <scorp123> bascule: possible. But as for Vista: It's a resource hog. Linux on the same hardware runs so much smoother and better. :-)
[09:41] <foug_> xtknight: cat /proc/cpuinfo says amd 64 processor
[09:41] <foug_> chief: thanks
[09:41] <xtknight> foug_, you're running 32-bit ubuntu
[09:41] <xtknight> foug_, you need not your CPU's arch but your OS's architecture from uname -a
[09:42] <foug_> xtknight: ahhh i see
[09:42] <foug_> xtknight: so intel-linux is the one to download then?
[09:42] <xtknight> foug_, amd64 CPUs (as you can see) can run both 32 and 64bit OS
[09:42] <xtknight> foug_, ya
[09:42] <MySpace> i was thinking that it would probanly make more scince if my ubunto OS partoting is bigger then my home partition, scince the home partition is just for setting. Or Is it better the other way around?
[09:43] <foug_> xtknight: http://snapshot.opera.com/unix/9.50-Alpha-1/intel-linux/ is the new page after clicking intel-linux, what does 5-6-shared mean?
[09:43] <xtknight> foug_, then there appears to be many options there.  i would choose the latest version (.10) and static.  static reduces problems running the program on a system with a lot of libraries.
[09:43] <bascule> scorp123: undobtedly this true, the resource use is horrible and it's biggest set back
[09:43] <xtknight> foug_, with shared you're taking a chance that your system has what opera needs.  static ensures that library X is included in Opera itself so there are no problems
[09:43] <xtknight> shared is a bit smaller
[09:43] <bruenig> MySpace, your non home partition will not likely get over 5-6 gigs, mine is at 3.73 gigs right now, the home partition just stores settings but also because it is writable by the user is where you generally keep your other files, music, videos, documents, pictures etc which is why it is made so much bigger
[09:44] <foug_> xtknight: hmm, so opera-9.50-20070903.10-static-qt.i386-1567.tar.gz ?
[09:44] <bruenig> foug_, the deb
[09:44] <xethorn_> Hello
[09:44] <MySpace> ok that answers my questins fully
[09:44] <xtknight> foug_, right
[09:44] <xtknight> deb
[09:44] <foug_> bruenig: opera-static_9.50-20070903.10-static-qt_i386.deb ? xtknight
[09:44] <xtknight> foug_, ya
[09:44] <MySpace> thatnk you guys for your great and pronp help
[09:44] <foug_> awesome you guys rule, thanks
[09:45] <MySpace> I shall get on installing Ubunto then
[09:45] <xtknight> foug_,  actually 98% of people will probably download what you are (for ubuntu)
[09:45] <savvas> foug_: that's an alpha release, I'd be careful with it
[09:45] <xethorn_> I'm looking for some help. I use a macbook pro and a samsung screen. I want to disconnect my macbook pro when the computer is connected to the samsung screen. I didn't find a solution with google and yahoo! ...
[09:45] <xethorn_> so, if someone can help me ...
[09:45] <MySpace> bye every one
[09:45] <foug_> xtknight: ahhh i see
[09:45] <foug_> savvas: yea i know but it says it's a lot faster and i havn't heard anything bad about it, have you?
[09:45] <xethorn_> my macbook pro +screen
[09:46] <oxeimon> hey, I want to set up some permanent aliases on my newly installed ubuntu, how do I do it?
[09:46] <discworld> When playing a game I often press and hold the Alt key down and simultaneously press my right mouse button. This is irritating because a semi screen pops up at the mouse pointer asking me to switch work stations etc. How do I change this so that the screen doesn't appear so it doesn't affect my gameplay?
[09:46] <savvas> foug_: I never touch alpha releases, only beta :) That's why I haven't installed the new ubuntu release yet
[09:46] <bruenig> oxeimon, /etc/bash.bashrc iirc
[09:46] <foug_> savvas: ;P
[09:46] <kain> buona sera
[09:46] <xtknight> savvas, i wish i had chosen the way you have when it comes to Gutsy
[09:46] <xtknight> :p
[09:46] <kain> c'e' qualche italiano
[09:47] <xtknight> !it | kain
[09:47] <ubotu> kain: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[09:47] <kain> pardon
[09:47] <vreer> great bot :)
[09:47] <kain> good evening
[09:47] <vreer> !botsnack for ubotu
[09:48] <foug_> what are the commands to upgrade/update through terminal?
[09:48] <DrFrasierCrane> hey my update from feisty to gutsy was interrupted, how can I make it finish the work?
[09:49] <idiot> trying to install flash correctly in firefox/mozilla, is there an apt-get that i can use?
[09:49] <foug_> idiot: no you have to get it from adobe's site i think
[09:49] <foug_> idiot: just go to youtube and it'll tell you where you to go since you don't have the plugin
[09:49] <foug_> idiot: then there will be instructions in the .tar
[09:50] <recon> savvas: yeah, i suppose you're right. it's gpg --recv-keys (identifier), right?
[09:50] <idiot> yikes...just crashed
[09:50] <erUSUL> DrFrasierCrane: at which stage was it interrupted?
[09:50] <chief> idiot: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[09:50] <Aminux_> !antialiasing
[09:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about antialiasing - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:51] <savvas> recon: is it about the apt (.deb) packages?
[09:51] <oxeimon> why dont I have any manual pages in the terminal?
[09:51] <recon> savvas: no, some people I know.
[09:51] <DrFrasierCrane> erUSUL, at configuring pckages, for example gnome doesn't have session configured :( I think I'll run dpkg-reconfigure -a
[09:51] <croSmiley> does enyone have experience with connecting evolution to ms exchange server 2003?
[09:51] <oxeimon> I just installed ubuntu, and I have no manual entries for anything
[09:52] <erUSUL> DrFrasierCrane: first do 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' to make sure everything is instaled
[09:52] <rathel> !flash | idiot
[09:52] <ubotu> idiot: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[09:52] <savvas> recon: oh, download seahorse from applications > add/remove :) then applications > accessories > passwords and encryption keys
[09:52] <DrFrasierCrane> eracc, yes it is
[09:52] <DrFrasierCrane> erUSUL, yes it is
[09:52] <recon> savvas: ok.
[09:52] <recon> savvas: too bad you can't do it from inside of evolution.
[09:53] <erUSUL> DrFrasierCrane: then it's ok to run dpkg-reconfigure -a
[09:53] <DrFrasierCrane> erUSUL, ok doing it right now
[09:53] <savvas> recon: well... I don't really know, I use gmail's web interface :)
[09:53] <winbond> so how do i install new mouse icons?
[09:53] <dj_baggio> what codecs should I download to use rmvb?
[09:53] <DrFrasierCrane> oxeimon, what do you type in the terminal?
[09:53] <oxeimon> man alias
[09:53] <oxeimon> for example
[09:53] <DrFrasierCrane> oxeimon, and what is the error ?
[09:53] <savvas> winbond: you get the microphone and say: "gimme some new mouse icons"
[09:54] <oxeimon> "No manula entry for alias"
[09:54] <oxeimon> *manual*
[09:54] <erUSUL> oxeimon: alias is a internal shell command there is no man page for alias or cd
[09:54] <DrFrasierCrane> erUSUL, yes there is
[09:54] <Jowi> winbond, you install them to your ~/.icons directory. then you set them with gcursor (for example)
[09:54] <erUSUL> oxeimon: man bash <<< look here for info on alias
[09:54] <xtknight> oxeimon, "man bash" ?
[09:55] <xtknight> "apropos alias" doesnt show man bash tho which is interesting
[09:55] <Jowi> !info gcursor
[09:55] <idiot> how do i enable the "multiverse"
[09:55] <ubotu> gcursor: gnome cursor theme managing software. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.061-ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 14 kB, installed size 152 kB
[09:55] <xtknight> !multiverse | idiot
[09:55] <ubotu> idiot: 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
[09:55] <erUSUL> !repos | idiot
[09:55] <erUSUL> DrFrasierCrane: ??
[09:56] <DrFrasierCrane> erUSUL, I have man page for alias
[09:56] <Stavros> How can I upgrade to Gutsy from Feisty on a headless machine?
[09:56] <winbond> Jowi, do i put a tar package there, folder or unzipped icons?
[09:56] <DrFrasierCrane> erUSUL, and cd, too
[09:56] <xtknight> Stavros, edit sources.list to include gutsy and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:56] <Stavros> xtknight: isn't there a more "official" way?
[09:56] <xtknight> Stavros,  change feisty->gutsy rather
[09:56] <oxeimon> "bash.bashrc"...are the commands in this file executed every time the system loads up?
[09:56] <xtknight> Stavros,  for headless machines?  nope
[09:56] <Jowi> winbond, you put the unzipped folder there. so if you install the grounation cursor the path will be /home/user/.icons/Grounation/
[09:57] <Stavros> xtknight: will that break anything perchance?
[09:57] <linbox> is there anyone that can help me quickly with a dual boot issue? i'd appreciate it
[09:57] <Vlet> Is there a way to send video out my card's svideo while still having my desktop come out of vga?
[09:57] <Stavros> linbox: what's up?
[09:57] <linbox> i've exhausted all of my googling efforts
[09:57] <xtknight> Stavros, it could, obviously, but most commonly if you have third party repositories.  i have never upgraded a headless machine so i dont know what would happen, but that is how i would attempt it
[09:57] <Vlet> linbox: just ask away - no need to ask to ask :)
[09:57] <winbond> Jowi, alright, thanks
[09:57] <shaun_> hey
[09:57] <Stavros> xtknight: ah, okay, thanks a lot :)
[09:57] <Jowi> winbond, to install system wide you put the untarred/unzipped folder in /usr/share/icons
[09:57] <shaun_> i tried to install torrentflux but i didnt have mysql installed so i had to abort
[09:57] <linbox> well here's the deal, i installed XP SP2 on my 80 gb (hdb) then installed ubuntu...dapper on my 40 gb drive (hda)
[09:58] <shaun_> and now i cant install any other programs because its always tries to remove torernt flux
[09:58] <shaun_> but it cant fully remove it
[09:58] <shaun_> and i get the error
[09:58] <shaun_> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[09:58] <Jowi> shaun_, try to install it first and then remove it.
[09:58] <savvas> Stavros: katevazeis to alternate cd ubuntu gutsy tribe 5 apo to http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/tribe-5/ kai akoloutheis tis odigies: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading#head-0aee739ab0dfe9702a69ee3d316f5926d5d31807
[09:58] <linbox> but then in all of my wisdom i deleted the partition using  the winxp install disk, and recreated it hoping to reinstall
[09:58] <shaun_> okay
[09:59] <linbox> but it says it needs to edit the linux drive to install...for the MBR i'm guessing
[09:59] <Stavros> savvas: aha, elega omos an ginetai meso apt-get giati den exei othoni to mixanima
[09:59] <Vlet> shaun_: or try: sudo apt-get -f
[09:59] <linbox> so i was wondering if there was a way to do so without starting out from scratch
[09:59] <Stavros> linbox: what needs to edit the linux partition?
[09:59] <Jowi> linbox, you need to tell us more details. you deleted which partition, and you recreated it in otder to reinstall what?
[09:59] <linbox> the win xp install
[09:59] <savvas> Stavros: a ok tote :P
[10:00] <Jowi> s/otder/order
[10:00] <linbox> sorry, i deleted the 80 gb (hdb) partition with the win xp install disk
[10:00] <Vlet> linbox: so it sounds like your MBR was overwritten by windows installer..?
[10:01] <Jowi> linbox, still lack details. hdb was XP or Ubuntu?
[10:01] <SyNaPtiCo`> ...
[10:01] <linbox> ok hda: ubuntu hdb: was winxp, but i deleted partition
[10:02] <thedash> any command to tell if a file is a valid image ?
[10:02] <linbox> mbr was overwritten on hda i'm guessing.
[10:02] <Vlet> linbox: check out the second response on: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-24113.html
[10:02] <Stavros> linbox: and what do you need to do?
[10:02] <linbox> install windows on hdb
[10:02] <Jowi> linbox, ok. so you deleted the *windows* partition and then recreated it. you then installed XP back. So now you need to re-install grub i guess?
[10:02] <Stavros> linbox: why can't you just install them?
[10:02] <martinn> Help, i got no sound!
[10:02] <linbox> but the win xp install says it needs to edit hda, but cannot
[10:03] <Stavros> linbox: remove hda?
[10:03] <Jowi> !sound | martinn
[10:03] <ubotu> martinn: 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
[10:03] <linbox> nope.
[10:03] <Stavros> why not? :P
[10:03] <linbox> well it's technically removeable
[10:03] <CokeMan> i need a little help with a raid 5 setup. I have added a drive and switched drives around. from what i can tell, the drives that comprised the original raid have been automatically detected by mdadm and as far as i can tell mdadm says the raid is active without any problems. However, i cannot seem to mount the volume. to mount a raid5, the command is just mount -t ext3 /dev/md0 /media/Raid5. Correct?
[10:03] <DarkED> hey all
[10:03] <linbox> lol
[10:03] <DarkED> how can i change the icon of every folder on the system?
[10:03] <Stavros> linbox: no, i mean remove it, install xp, plug it in again

[10:05] <Stavros> linbox: as long as you set hda as primary

[10:06] <linbox> lol k.
[10:06] <Jowi> connor, for which video card?
[10:06] <CokeMan> i need a little help with a raid 5 setup. I have added a drive and switched drives around. from what i can tell, the drives that comprised the original raid have been automatically detected by mdadm and as far as i can tell mdadm says the raid is active without any problems. However, i cannot seem to mount the volume. to mount a raid5, the command is just mount -t ext3 /dev/md0 /media/Raid5. Correct?
[10:06] <linbox> i never would have thought of that.
[10:06] <Crack> ajajjaaaj.....

[10:06] <slavik> I have an SSH mount, how can I remove the icon from the desktop?
[10:06] <Crack> yo estoy en linux desde vmware
[10:06] <DarkED> how can i get into the 'File Types and Programs' preferences in ubuntu's version of gnome?
[10:06] <linbox> i guess i'll be back in a bit
[10:06] <vreer> muchos anos ...
[10:07] <linbox> thanks for your help, i'll be back to chill
[10:07] <DarkED> apparently it's usually in applications > desktop preferences
[10:07] <Vlet> slavik: right click it and select 'unmount'
[10:07] <DarkED> but ubuntu doesn't have that menu
[10:07] <Stavros> linbox: by the way
[10:07] <vreer> pero como dice el bot: para apoyo vaya a #ubuntu-es ...
[10:07] <linbox> yeah?
[10:07] <Jowi> connor, although i think there is a 3rd party driver install in an icon in the tray in Feisty at least....
[10:07] <Stavros> linbox: you'll probably need to reinstall grub
[10:07] <Stavros> or add another entry for windows
[10:07] <linbox> k
[10:07] <linbox> i can handle that
[10:07] <connor> Okay.
[10:07] <vreer>  mi espanol ni mi cinecia de linux es bastante bien;o)
[10:07] <Stavros> just do grub-reinstall i think
[10:07] <discworld> how do I get off the ability to Alt+Right click?? It gives up a screen that disturbs me, how can I set this off?
[10:07] <linbox> i manually edited it before, and when it tried to boot windows i got the "NTLDR" missing
[10:08] <linbox> so i tried to reinstall windows, format the drive, etc...that's how i got into this mess
[10:08] <savvas> linbox: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall grub && sudo update-grub
[10:08] <Vlet> discworld: don't alt-right click?
[10:08] <Stavros> linbox: yeah, that does suck, but it shouldn't happen if windows is on another hard drive
[10:08] <Stavros> if you do get that again, edit c:\boot.ini
[10:08] <Stavros> to point it to the correct hard disk
[10:08] <linbox> k
[10:09] <discworld> Vlet, ah but I do it many times in this game I play, and the window pops up wich is very disturbing
[10:09] <linbox> one step at a time here, i'm gonna pop this drive out

[10:12] <Euphidime> I'm having a problem running WoW under Wine that isn't mentioned in the guide on the wiki. I'm setting the gxApi to opengl in Config.wtf, but for some reason it's still using Direct3D (It prints errors about Direct3DCreate9 to the console.)
[10:12] <Jowi> thedash, "file picture.tif"
[10:12] <Milbur> Would it be insanely hard to modify the login screen of ubuntu to be completely custom? What i'd want is to be able to place the login bar text box anywhere and have it over top of a video or image in the background in addition to playing a sound file of my choosing. Will I need to get into actual coding for this?

[10:13] <Stavros> workstation you have to buy
[10:13] <chief> free as in beer
[10:13] <Stavros> yeah
[10:13] <homeskillit> free is better sometimes
[10:13] <thedash> ah
[10:13] <thedash> I had looked at that, but didn't take it far enough, thanks :)
[10:13] <winbond> thank you , thank you , can i install it with apt-get?
[10:14] <Stavros> winbond: i think there's a repository
[10:14] <RenatoSilva> how do I make Gaim make bold the messages sent to me in IRC????
[10:14] <Stavros> winbond: if not, it's easy to download and install it
[10:14] <Stavros> winbond: although i think you might need a patch if you get an error, just google the error and you'll find it easily

[10:15] <Stavros> Pc_Dark: depends on your country
[10:15] <Vlet> discworld: here's an idea.. hit alt-F2, type gconf-editor, go to Apps > metacity > general and change mouse_button_modifier to <Super> and logout/in

[10:43] <teste> like make the ctrl c with another function in the same time
[10:43] <ron_> jrib :]  yes how easy. thankyou bruddaman.
[10:44] <jrib> francois: ok, lets try to get english to work first.  Is myspell-en-us installed?
[10:44] <SuperLag> I want to fire off some reports that run on an Ubuntu server, to an open relay and mail them to a group of people. This box would send mail but never receive. What would be the best setup for that?
[10:44] <bruenig> teste, are you talking about trapping ctrl c or are you talking about terminating something in the same way control c terminates things
[10:44] <Jowi> betatest20, then i have no idea...
[10:44] <teste> copy something with another function in the same time
[10:44] <francois> jrib: yes,
[10:44] <Alejandr0> hello, i need help installing quake 4, it says i dont have permission to install in usr/local/games
[10:44] <randy026> How do you change icon sets in gnome?
[10:45] <betatest20> Jowi: no biggie, thanks for your suggestions!
[10:45] <Grungebunny> alejandr0 try sudo b4 the command?
[10:45] <francois> jrib: argh, found my problem, using english CA, and not english US in openoffice
[10:45] <jrib> francois: ok, in openoffice, go to tools -> Languages and ensure that the default lang is "English (USA)".  Also, make sure there is an "ABC" icon with a checkmark to the left of "English".  Do the same for Language Settings -> Writing Aids .... ah ok :)
[10:45] <francois> jrib: thanks for jogging my mind, :) ,
[10:45] <Graywulf> anyone?
[10:46] <Alejandr0> Grungebunny, no sudo, its an installer, like an exe
[10:46] <teste> Could you help ? do you know how the ctrl c function works on linux ?
[10:46] <MrObvious> Alejandr0: Is it a Winblows app or is it for Linux?
[10:46] <jrib> randy026: system -> preferences -> themes
[10:46] <Alejandr0> its for linux
[10:46] <bruenig> teste, you have yet to explain what you are wanting to do, I have asked you to clarify and you aren't doing so, so I don't know what you want
[10:46] <jrib> teste: it sends SIG INT
[10:46] <chief> Alejandr0: you must use sudo to install to /usr/local/games
[10:46] <semyneu> neverblue, can we talk ok private or something like that ?
[10:46] <Alejandr0> its a .eun file
[10:46] <MrObvious> Alejandr0: sudo ./quake.file.exe
[10:47] <johnon> hi.i have a question:if command 'ls -d' lists only the names of folders, why i see only period after type this command?
[10:47] <Alejandr0> .run
[10:47] <randy026> jrib, what about if I am using compiz-fusion and emerald does that make a difference?
[10:47] <MrObvious> or .run
[10:47] <vreer> Jowi: lke I thought - i need eepro100 or ee100; eepro100 is inserted en listed in lsmod
[10:47] <MrObvious> johnon: The folder you're in now doesn't have any subfolders. The . means current folder.
[10:47] <randy026> I don't seem to have "Themes" there
[10:47] <jrib> randy026: I don't think so, but give it a try and come back if it does.  You may want to ask in #ubuntu-effects if what I said doesn't work
[10:47] <neverblue> semyneu, no sorry, im at work, I answer when I can help
[10:48] <randy026> k thx
[10:48] <Graywulf> I found this step while trying to fix my audio problem Most sound applications output to card0 by default. In some cases, other audio devices (like a USB MIDI Keyboard) might be recognized as a soundcard and take card0, bumping your real soundcard to card1.  and typed in cat /proc/asound/cards like it says... and my card is bumped to card1, how can I change it?
[10:48] <Radamanthys> hello people

[10:48] <teste> I have a application that need so many ctrl c to make so the people here need something to make the ctrl c and after with just one ctrl v paste everything into a file the application is a x3270
[10:48] <jrib> johnon:

[10:48] <Usrl> How do I wipe a USB flash drive? I'm trying to put DSL embedded on it
[10:48] <Alejandr0> ok, i will try
[10:48] <oxeimon> hey guys, how do I get openSSH?
[10:48] <jrib> johnon: ls defaults to your current directory.  So ls -d  shows your current directory (.)
[10:48] <Vlet> teste: by 'ctrl c' do you mean copy?
[10:49] <teste> Yes
[10:49] <Vlet> oxeimon: sudo apt-get install ssh
[10:49] <Vlet> teste: ctrl-shift-c
[10:49] <adac> how to let qemu boot from hard disk?
[10:49] <Jowi> Graywulf, "asoundconf list" to see the list of the sound cards. then use asoundconf set-default-card nameofcard"
[10:49] <Vlet> teste: when in a terminal
[10:49] <vreer> oxeimon: sudo apt-get install ssh
[10:50] <Vlet> teste: so you can ctrl-shift-c from a terminal, and then ctrl-v into a text editor or whatever
[10:50] <oxeimon> vreer/vlet: how did you find that out
[10:50] <Friendly_hazard> hey does Core 2 duo count as x64?
[10:50] <johnon> jrib: so could you help me:how to list all folders in my current directory?
[10:50] <oxeimon> can you give me some quick tips on how apt-get works?
[10:50] <teste> it didn't work
[10:50] <jrib> teste: you can use 'xclip' to put stuff into clipboards
[10:50] <saritor> oxeimon: to search use "sudo apt-get search ssh"
[10:50] <Jowi> Graywulf, sorry should be: then use "asoundconf set-default-card nameofcard"
[10:50] <teste> yes i'm using it
[10:50] <Friendly_hazard> hey does Core 2 duo count as x64?
[10:50] <Ornedan> ikonia: Hi again. Thanks for the help yesterday. I got the LVM commands to work properly after uninstalling EVMS
[10:50] <jrib> johnon: ls -d */   should work
[10:51] <vreer> oxeimon: to find out: apt-cache search ssh
[10:51] <vreer> there you find waht apps there are ro isntall
[10:51] <teste> but itappend but don't copy to clipboard so I have the append but not the copy command
[10:51] <vreer> to install*
[10:51] <jrib> !who | teste
[10:51] <ubotu> teste: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[10:51] <chief> Friendly_hazard: yes
[10:51] <shawn34> everything i click on is being double clicked, i rebooted same issue. any ideas?
[10:51] <Vlet> oxeimon: well, I just knew off the top of my head, but if you were to open 'synaptic package manager'  and search for openssh, it should come up
[10:51] <Jowi> Friendly_hazard, yes. but 32 bit ubuntu works well on it.
[10:51] <saritor> oxeimon: to find out more about apt-get type "man apt-get" in a terminal, or use google =_
[10:51] <semyneu> neverblue ok, than answer this: I see this written:  "prob/bus/usb/devices" I can't find it in Ubuntu :| i fount something in  /dev/bus/usbdevices but it is empty :|
[10:51] <jrib> Friendly_hazard: yes, but you want to use 32bit ubuntu unless you have a very good reason not to
[10:51] <Friendly_hazard> k
[10:51] <johnon> jrib: thank you.
[10:51] <betatest20> Jowi: I found a semi solution: /apps/metacity/general/reduced_resources if ticked the animation is gone, but you only see a wireframe of the window if you move it.
[10:52] <jrib> johnon: actually, that won't show hidden folders, so you may want:  ls -d */ .*/
[10:52] <Friendly_hazard> i get to a login screen when i try to install, but i dunno the login or password
[10:52] <neverblue> semyneu, i think you should read it all, not just ask questions about each 'wall' you reach
[10:52] <teste> thank you7 I didn't know
[10:52] <jrib> Friendly_hazard: have you verified that the iso was burned without errors?
[10:53] <Friendly_hazard> i dled it 2x, both times didnt work
[10:53] <skyfalcon866> any one use JFS
[10:53] <oxeimon> saritor: "sudo apt-get search ssh" returns "E: Invalid operation search"
[10:53] <Jowi> betatest20, typical. gnome (or metacity as the window manager is called) is making it difficult to tweak things nowadays.
[10:53] <chief> oxeimon: apt-cache search
[10:53] <winbond> Friendly_hazard, password and login for live session?
[10:53] <saritor> oxeimon: try "sudo aptitude search ssh"
[10:53] <Friendly_hazard> uhhhh not sure
[10:54] <johnon> jrib: thank you for helping me.if you can now could you explain me why it is ' */ '?
[10:54] <Jowi> betatest20, you can replace metacity with something else if you like though (I won't go into details about that since you have so many to choose from)
[10:54] <winbond> Friendly_hazard, did u install it or just runing from cd?
[10:54] <Friendly_hazard> cd
[10:54] <Vlet> oxeimon: also, apt-cache search yadda will work
[10:54] <oxeimon> is that ssh any different from openssh?
[10:54] <jrib> johnon: * is everything that does not start with a dot, */ will only match directories because of the / at the end (files can't have '/' at the end, but directories can have subdirectories)
[10:54] <slipttees> please smeone can help me ?
[10:55] <winbond> Friendly_hazard, it should be , guest guest, or root root  , same login/password

[10:55] <slipttees> http://www.lostlabyrinth.com/index.php?p=download

[10:56] <Jowi> Friendly_hazard, you should not get a login screen for the live cd if you downloaded it from ubuntu.com. that is strange. if you did download it from ubuntu.com try the alternate cd.

[11:09] <Grungebunny> CountX what kinda laptop?
[11:09] <CountX> gnurph69, well your going to have to have X running to control it with X
[11:09] <bruenig> CountX, /proc/acpi/battery
[11:09] <bruenig> CountX, should be in there
[11:09] <Jowi> Cyrus25801, it sends email
[11:09] <gnurph69> firekool:  no - X is installed on both systems.  In fact, I get a login screen on my X remote system - but when I use the same username/password, it fails.
[11:09] <CountX> bruenig, i dont have that folder
[11:09] <MrObvious> Cyrus25801: If you were to have an e-mail account, it has to store the e-mail and download it from an e-mail server.
[11:09] <Friendly_hazard> hey the login/pass doesnt work
[11:09] <gnurph69> CountX:  already running.
[11:09] <bruenig> CountX, you aren't using acpi?

[11:10] <CountX> bruenig, no, no acpi folder
[11:10] <gnurph69> firekool / CountX:  can I log in twice with the same userID?  is that why it won't let me do it?
[11:10] <bruenig> CountX, yeah you probably need to get in on that

[11:16] <Friendly_hazard> anyone?
[11:16] <warbler> !sound
[11:16] <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

[11:18] <Pelo> iam4HIM,  you do a search in the forum for the model and also for the generic therm  joystick , and you can also check here  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport

[11:18] <xp_killer> Friendly_hazard: what can i try help u with?
[11:19] <MrObvious> Cyrus25801: Sorry I had a customer. I'm at work. The company probably has their own e-mail accounts and setup.
[11:19] <winbond> Friendly_hazard, something is messed up, there root/root should work, but i dont think there should be any password when u are booting from the cd
[11:19] <Pelo> redbox, swf files will play in mplayer
[11:19] <winbond> Friendly_hazard, shouldnt
[11:19] <vreer> redbox: or vlc for that matter
[11:19] <MrObvious> Friendly_hazard: Reburn your CD. You burned a bad CD.
[11:19] <Friendly_hazard> i dled it twiec
[11:19] <CowzRule> Where can I download the latest version of the Gutsy LiveCD?
[11:20] <saritor> spacebass, How is that working out for you? I plan on setting mine up in a couple weeks after I move
[11:20] <Friendly_hazard> and burned it 2x
[11:20] <winbond> someone told me that rar will extract 7z files, so i installed it , but it says archive not supported when i try to extract it, what can i do?
[11:20] <MrObvious> winbond: That means a badly burned image. I've seen it before.
[11:20] <MrObvious> !7z
[11:20] <ubotu> Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[11:20] <Pelo> CowzRule, don'T think there is a live cd out yet but you can ask in #ubuntu+1
[11:20] <CowzRule> Thanks
[11:20] <SpaceBass> saritor, done it serveral times...just upgrading to new hardware now
[11:20] <MrObvious> Friendly_hazard: Try running a md5 check against the ISO and the CD.
[11:21] <Cyrus25801> MrObvious: is there maybe a tut that could explain in more detail
[11:21] <Friendly_hazard> how
[11:21] <goober> update-java-alternatives to update jre, i think?
[11:21] <MrObvious> Cyrus25801: What are you wanting to do? Set up a server?
[11:21] <saritor> spacebass, maybe I will have to bug you then for some advice when i get it setup ;) This will be my first server setup
[11:21] <MrObvious> !md5sum | Friendly_hazard
[11:21] <ubotu> Friendly_hazard: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more
[11:21] <SpaceBass> saritor, glad to help in any way I can ... remember the nick and /msg me .. I try and avoid this zoo as much as I can :)
[11:22] <MrObvious> Friendly_hazard: Or there are utilities that you'll need to google for Winblows.
[11:22] <pinkfreud> hi all, i'm trying to install ubuntu 7.07 PowerPC on my mac powerbookg4 (to dualboot), and i have 10 gig set aside, but it doesn't even get to the install screen when i boot from the cd; it was slow and hangs on a light orange screen. i did Ctrl-Alt-F1, and some text there said there was an error parsing some node.  can anyone help me get the installer running?
[11:22] <saritor> spacebass, will do
[11:22] <steveatlocalhost> pinkfreud: are you using the PPC version of ubuntu?
[11:22] <winbond> MrObvious, fileroller doesnt work either for the 7z file
[11:22] <MrObvious> Friendly_hazard: Or you can even try the alternate installer.
[11:23] <connor> Im stuck on htis part of the graphics drivers downlooad
[11:23] <MrObvious> winbond: Try reading that URL. You might need to install something for 7z.
[11:23] <CowzRule> I found it http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/tribe-5/
[11:23] <connor> Open the the /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common file with an editor
[11:23] <pinkfreud> steveatloc: yes, i downloaded a Live somethingorother especially for ppc
[11:23] <connor> whats an editor
[11:23] <goober> "Check CD for Defects" the next time you load the livecd
[11:23] <MrObvious> Friendly_hazard: Try the Check CD for Defects too.
[11:23] <Pelo> CowzRule,  you do realise that gutsy isn'T final yet right ? that tribe 5 is an alpha release ?
[11:23] <steveatlocalhost> pinkfreud, live CD? lol, check the cd for defects in the install menu, and if theres nothing wrong, try the alternate install CD
[11:24] <CowzRule> Pelo, Yep I do. Thanks
[11:24] <pinkfreud> steveatloc: hm, where's the install menu again? is that the black and white text?
[11:24] <Cyrus25801> MrObvious: yes i would like to so that i can learn how. but i was under the impression that without a domain that i could setup my own email addresses. like : me@Cyrus25801.com and so on
[11:24] <gcreator> exit
[11:25] <pinkfreud> (which i hit Tab btw, and even tried live-powerpc-nosplash or whatever)
[11:25] <Pelo> gcreator,  /exit
[11:25] <MrObvious> Cyrus25801: More than likely you'll need a domain that supports it first off. You might check no-ip.com or godaddy.com for more.
[11:26] <winbond> MrObvious, got it , thanks
[11:26] <steveatlocalhost> pinkfreud, yeah, its the b/w menu with the ubuntu logo
[11:26] <MrObvious> winbond: YW.
[11:26] <Friendly_hazard> md5 hashes are the same
[11:27] <MrObvious> Friendly_hazard: Are you burning to CD-Rs or CD-RWs?
[11:27] <Friendly_hazard> RW
[11:27] <CountX> jiam, still no webcam
[11:27] <pinkfreud> steveatloc: ok, i'll find the help page about checking the install cd for defects, and then try the alternate install... thanks much, i may be back later :)
[11:27] <CountX> jiam, fixed my battery thing tho
[11:27] <MrObvious> Friendly_hazard: Burn to just Rs and it should work better. IDK why but it's very picky. I've tried it before.
[11:27] <Friendly_hazard> damn im out of Rs
[11:27] <steveatlocalhost> pinkfreud, Haha, ok good luck. sorry im not loads of help. im not a mac user myself, let alone a ppc user
[11:27] <osxdude|laptop> How do I show then ENTIRE cube in Compiz?
[11:27] <MrObvious> Friendly_hazard: I know lol.
[11:27] <redbox> vreer: for some reason I can't get any swf's to play in vlc
[11:28] <pinkfreud> heh np, you were very helpful! :) byebye
[11:28] <steveatlocalhost> osxdude|laptop, control+alt+click and drag
[11:28] <MrObvious> Friendly_hazard: You might see if the alternate installer ISO will burn okay on CD-RWs and stuff.
[11:28] <NuCobra> Can someone help me on how to switch my X Server to TrueColor mode (24 or 32 bit).
[11:28] <jiam> CountX: umm is your webcam plugged in? is it powered? is it detected? what kind? usb?
[11:28] <steveatlocalhost> NuCobra, have you edited your xorg.conf?
[11:28] <osxdude|laptop> Oh I got it...thanks steveat,
[11:28] <osxdude|laptop> oops
[11:28] <knix_> How can I back up a directory on a windows machine to an Ubuntu file server automatically/daily?
[11:28] <steveatlocalhost> osxdude|laptop, haha no problem
[11:28] <CountX> jiam, its internal, on my laptop lid
[11:28] <Friendly_hazard> what does the CD do with the password request i get?
[11:28] <Cyrus25801> MrObvious: i have setup something similar with dyndns.org. so lets say i have setup cyrus.homelinux.org and i have software on my pc that udates my ip address to that domain can i setup a mail server at home so that i can have anything@cyrus.homelinux.org
[11:29] <steveatlocalhost> knix_: try google, it always helps for things like that
[11:29] <NuCobra> no i am new at this and don't know how
[11:29] <MrObvious> knix_: You'll need cron for one. Then you could do cp -a /path/to/winblows /path/to/backup on the cron job.
[11:29] <knix_> steveatlocalhost, well I thought I would try here before I go that route.
[11:29] <MrObvious> !cron | knix_
[11:29] <ubotu> knix_: 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
[11:29] <knix_> ty MrObvious
[11:29] <jiam> CountX: does it show up on dmesg ? or lshw?
[11:29] <MrObvious> knix_: YW.
[11:29] <steveatlocalhost> knix_ haha ok, well sorry im not any more help
[11:29] <MrObvious> knix_: Hopefully that points you in the right direction.
[11:29] <knix_> steveatlocalhost, np
[11:29] <knix_> ty
[11:30] <steveatlocalhost> NuCobra: in a terminal, type: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:30] <osxdude|laptop> steveatlocalhost, and my zoom isn't working...
[11:30] <CountX> jiam, hwo would i do that
[11:30] <steveatlocalhost> NuCobra, exactly like that
[11:30] <MrObvious> Cyrus25801: Does homelinux support e-mail serving? It's really complicated to get your own e-mail server set up from what I hear. I have a friend who runs web servers for a living and he told me that.
[11:30] <CowzRule> 
[11:30] <steveatlocalhost> osxdude|laptop, on beryl/compiz? is it set up?
[11:30] <osxdude|laptop> Yup, steveatlocalhost
[11:31] <neol> how do i open all the ports in my ubuntu fiesty. ?
[11:31] <panfist> hello how can i see if my wireless card is configured correctly? i plugged it in to my laptop, booted up and it shows up in the system > network gui tool and if i do ifconfig -a i see a new interface, but i cant discover any new networks with with the normal gui tool, or wifi-radar. thank you
[11:31] <steveatlocalhost> osxdude|laptop, hmm, whats the key combo your using?
[11:31] <Friendly_hazard> what does the CD do with the password request i get?
[11:31] <jiam> CountX: very carefully..on an xterm..type  dmesg and look for the cam, or  lshw  and look for the cam
[11:31] <weezy> neol: iptables -f ?
[11:31] <seeb> my wireless adapter is listed in the network-setting list. does that mean that it is supported ? since i dont find a way to enter my wlan password and encryption type
[11:31] <steveatlocalhost> NuCobra, then go to the bottom. there is all the screen info there
[11:31] <weezy> neol: iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT ?
[11:31] <jiam> Friendly_hazard: you sure it prompted you for password while using the livecd?
[11:31] <osxdude|laptop> steveatlocalhost: Control+Alt+equal for zoom in and Control+Alt+minus for zoom out.
[11:32] <neol> weezy: after that, then their is no need to use lokkit or firestarter ??
[11:32] <Pelo> neol, if you haven't closed them you don'T need to open them  the firewall is not enabled by default,  I assume youa re using azureus ?
[11:32] <neol> weezy: will that release all the ports. ?
[11:32] <steveatlocalhost> osxdude|laptop, hmm, that seems to be right. re check your settings manager,
[11:32] <Cyrus25801> MrObvious: ok cool.i will get someone to actually show me at their work. for now i will play with something a little eaiser. what about a http server
[11:32] <weezy> oh, no it won't
[11:32] <Friendly_hazard> well it loaded and then it loaded and it asked me to login
[11:32] <jiam> neol: to check firewall rules... sudo iptables -vL
[11:32] <NuCobra> steveatlocalhost, asks for a password
[11:32] <MrObvious> Cyrus25801: Much easier.
[11:32] <MrObvious> !apache | Cyrus25801
[11:32] <ubotu> Cyrus25801: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[11:33] <neol> Pelo: i'm trying to use utorrent in wine, but in that port is not getting forwarded.
[11:33] <steveatlocalhost> NuCobra, put in your user password that you log in with
[11:33] <Pelo> neol,  you have a router ?
[11:33] <NuCobra> steveatlocalhost k it open but how to edit lol i am new
[11:33] <neol> i'm trying all the commands u guys suggested.
[11:33] <steveatlocalhost> NuCobra, It looks like it isnt typing it, but it is, just type it and hit enter
[11:33] <neol> Pelo: yes i have a router.
[11:33] <MrObvious> Cyrus25801: For a web server you are already set up with the DNS. You'll just need to set up port 80 to your server IP on your NAT Router if you have one. Then it's just setting up Apache which is quite easy.
[11:33] <osxdude|laptop> steveatlocalhost. Zoom is enabled, the shortcuts are set...I don't see what is wrong.
[11:33] <fernando__> Hi People, here have a simple tutorial to connect the bluetooth in ubuntu?
[11:33] <Pelo> neol,  then you need to forward the port in the router ,  to a static ip ,
[11:33] <MrObvious> !bluetooth | fernando__
[11:33] <ubotu> fernando__: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[11:34] <Friendly_hazard> well it loaded and then it loaded and it asked me to login
[11:34] <steveatlocalhost> NuCobra, ok, so scroll to the bottom, and look at the screen settings and just change the numbers from 16 bit to 24
[11:34] <MrObvious> fernando__: Like that? :p
[11:34] <weezy> neol: I haven't used any of those products you listed, but the default firewall for linux is iptables, and iptables -f will flush all rules
[11:34] <neol> Pelo: all the ports are open in my router, but ubuntu seems to be blocking the ports.
[11:34] <Pelo> neol,  you can set the static ip in menu > system > admin > network , select the connection , properties,
[11:34] <steveatlocalhost> osxdude|laptop, i have no idea then, you checked the forum?
[11:34] <Pelo> neol, uncheck the upnp
[11:34] <fernando__> MrObvious, no... This tutorial don't confiure many services
[11:34] <MrObvious> neol: What are you trying to open a firewall for?
[11:34] <fernando__> transfer of files (receive and send)
[11:34] <osxdude|laptop> no, I will now i guess, steveat.
[11:34] <osxdude|laptop> Dang nick completion
[11:34] <MrObvious> fernando__: Okay well I tried. Maybe if you post your specifics in your question and your device informaiton someone might be able to help.
[11:35] <neol> slow slow guys at a time so many suggestions i'm getting too confused here, one by one plz,  thanks to everybody for response.
[11:35] <steveatlocalhost> osxdude|laptop, Lol, sorry i cant help more
[11:35] <MrObvious> neol: lol

[11:37] <MrObvious> !pastebin | NuCobra
[11:37] <ubotu> NuCobra: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:37] <NuCobra> that is what it waz
[11:37] <ewook> MrObvious: well, that was obvious ;)
[11:37] <steveatlocalhost> homeskillit: you need an OS for an old PC?
[11:37] <chief> homeskillit: in my experience, 128MB is too little, even for Xubuntu, but YMMV
[11:37] <Pelo> MrObvious, I might be over qualified
[11:38] <steveatlocalhost> NuCobra: you checked google? or your settings?

[11:38] <homeskillit> I have xubuntu
[11:38] <steveatlocalhost> homeskillit: have you got internet on it?
[11:38] <Flannel> homeskillit: You need to use the alternate CD to install, but they'll install and run on 128.  Even ubuntu will, although slowly.
[11:38] <contradiction-pi> hi, my laptop gets a kernel panic and/or completely freezes within one minute of booting without being plugged in. however, if i boot while plugged in and then unplug the adapter, it's fine. how do i fix this?
[11:38] <MrObvious> Pelo: My area of expertise is networking so I know a lot about firewalls and NAT devices but I'm not that familiar with iptables.
[11:38] <Pelo> homeskillit, is it installed or are you talking about the live cd not loading ?
[11:39] <NuCobra> steveatlocalhost, yes tryed google, and what settings you mean?

A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[11:43] <octoberdan> Is there a way to generate a new xorg.conf? Perhaps reconfigure the xorg package or something?
[11:43] <Pelo> homeskillit,  that might be why your system is sluggish beryl on a 128meg RAm is a little much to ask
[11:43] <zylche> Anyone here use kino? I tried converting a perfectly functional .avi [in vlc and any other player]  but when I import it the sound is just noise and the picture is just a dark green background.
[11:43] <MrObvious> fernando__: Don't abuse the bot dude. You can do a /query ubotu and play with him in there. We don't like the extra text flooding us out, even a little bit.

[11:49] <MrObvious> Hydrate: At the command line type apt-file and push Enter. What is the output? If it's more than like 2 lines use a pastebin please.
[11:49] <Pelo> neol, ok start another torrent, that might help
[11:50] <neol> Pelo: ok wait.
[11:50] <mike-a> MrObvious, no don't know, its a standard realtek laptop onboard NIC prolly compiled in kernel

[11:50] <MrObvious> mike-a: Okay can you post the chipset?
[11:50] <steveatlocalhost> anyone need any help with steam games not working?
[11:50] <blix_> what else would I need

[11:52] <blix_> google?
[11:52] <UrbenLegend> blix_: in synaptic
[11:52] <Pelo> blix_,  the actual name of the package is sun-java5-jre

[11:52] <blix_> right

[11:52] <UrbenLegend> blix_: if you can't find it, go to system->administration->software sources and enable all the repos except source code
[11:52] <Pelo> blix_,  if you want 6 you hve to enable backport
[11:53] <steveatlocalhost> kanuha, then put in: -dxlevel 70 novid -gl -opengl
[11:53] <MrObvious> mike-a: I'm not on Linux so do something for me. Put this in a terminal and type cd / && sudo find | grep 8139 and give me the output in a pastebin please.
[11:53] <rathel> Any vi guides? I keep screwing things up lol
[11:53] <weezy> sun packages are multiverse, or universe...so make sure they're enabled
[11:53] <steveatlocalhost> kanuha, and it should eliminate the problem
[11:53] <kanuha> steveatlocalhost, this one 'env WINEPREFIX="/home/eddie/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\Steam\' and this one 'env WINEPREFIX="/home/eddie/.wine" WINEDEBUG="fixme-all" wine "C:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe" -applaunch 240'
[11:53] <UrbenLegend> blix_: yeah backport there you go

[11:53] <steveatlocalhost> kanuha, read my other thing i put and follow it
[11:53] <UrbenLegend> blix_: actually while you're at it enable multiverse too
[11:53] <MrObvious> frost0: Hmm I don't remember which file that it installs it to.
[11:53] <kanuha> steveatlocalhost, where should I add that info?
[11:54] <rathel> chief, Thanks looking into it.
[11:54] <blix_> lol
[11:54] <MrObvious> frost0: If I remember right VMware uses a single file which you can customize that is somewhere.
[11:54] <MrObvious> Hydrate: I didn't get it.
[11:54] <blix_> this is quite frustrating I don't find any of this packages in Syn[atic
[11:54] <steveatlocalhost> kanuha, open steam, click on the game, click properties, then click set launch options
[11:54] <frost0> MrObvious, huh
[11:55] <NuCobra> steveatlocalhos, Do you think i would have the same issues i am having if i did not have 6.06?
[11:55] <UrbenLegend> blix_: did you enable multiverse too?
[11:55] <Pelo> blix_, close synaptic , open a terminal , type  sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre
[11:55] <UrbenLegend> Pelo: sun-java 6 is in multiverse
[11:55] <blix_> ok Pelo

[11:55] <UrbenLegend> Pelo: he has to enable the multiverse repo
[11:55] <blix_> one sec
[11:55] <steveatlocalhost> NuCobra: there is more likely to be more support for version 7.04. i would upgrade
[11:56] <Pelo> UrbenLegend, since when ?
[11:56] <UrbenLegend> Pelo: quite a while ago, if you search in synaptic there's an entry, in properties it says its part of multiverse
[11:56] <Pelo> UrbenLegend,  if he doesn,T get it with apt-get tell him how to enable multiverse and backport
[11:56] <steveatlocalhost> dfletcher: is it a steam game? it could be a video bug easy to remedy
[11:56] <NuCobra> steveatlocalhos, can i do that form with in 6.06 or do i need to uninstall an then run the download?
[11:57] <dfletcher> steveatlocalhost, should I try that same trick you just explained about CS?
[11:57] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Can you post it to a pastebin please?
[11:57] <UrbenLegend> blix_: go to software sources again and enable both multiverse and backport repos, then click reload in synaptic, then search for sun java, and scroll all the way down to find it
[11:57] <kanuha> steveatlocalhost, thx, I'll give it a try
[11:57] <steveatlocalhost> NuCobra, just open a terminal and type sudo apt-get dist upgrade

[12:01] <puff> I've gotta thinkpad t43p, with dock, and a space LCD monitor.  I'm running both now, but both are showing the same image.  I did some googling on how to have each monitor show a different virtual workspace, but it seems to be pretty hairy... is this still the case, or is it a solved problem now?
[12:01] <PiRoMaNo> Ok, Ubotu....I was installing all the updates...And my computer crashed
[12:01] <Pelo> neol,  meet me in #pelo please
[12:01] <MrObvious> Hydrate: But you got what I needed. At a terminal type sudo apt-get install apt-file really fast then do the other comamd.
[12:01] <neol> ok
[12:01] <PiRoMaNo> Now it keeps sayin I have to run dkpg --configure a
[12:01] <ubuntu_> windows messed up my ubuntu
[12:01] <ubuntu_> idk wat to do
[12:01] <Hydrate> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36734/
[12:01] <MrObvious> !enter | PiRoMaNo
[12:01] <PiRoMaNo> But in order to do that I have to be a "superuser"
[12:01] <ubotu> PiRoMaNo: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:01] <Hydrate> thats waht i get for the install apt-file
[12:02] <PiRoMaNo> How do i login into the superuser?
[12:02] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Okay. Well you did a pastebin successfully.
[12:02] <Hydrate> lol
[12:02] <MrObvious> mike-a: Okay try sudo modprobe 8139 and see if it works.
[12:02] <kousotu> !grub | ubuntu_
[12:02] <ubotu> ubuntu_: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[12:02] <darwin81> I'm trying to install a printer. It gives me the option of "High Quality Image (Gutenprint CUPS) (expert)" or "High Quality Image (Gutenprint CUPS) (simple)". What is the difference between the two and what should I pick?
[12:03] <mike-a> MrObvious, no it doesn't!
[12:03] <flyingoober> PiRoMaNoL: use su
[12:03] <MrObvious> Hydrate: You might need to update your repos and install new ones.
[12:03] <UrbenLegend> darwin81: the difference is the complexity of the printing setup
[12:03] <PiRoMaNo> I typed su and then my password but tells me authentication failure
[12:03] <Hydrate> MrObvioius: how can i do that?
[12:03] <chief> !root | PiRoMaNo
[12:03] <ubotu> PiRoMaNo: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[12:03] <Megaqwerty> PiRoMaNo: sudo su
[12:03] <MrObvious> mike-a: I thought so. Try sudo modprobe RTL8139
[12:03] <mike-a> MrObvious, nope
[12:03] <steveatlocalhost> anyone got problems with steam games?
[12:03] <javaJake> PiRoMaNo: su is NOT recommended! Never use it unless required!
[12:03] <MrObvious> mike-a: 8139cp
[12:03] <UrbenLegend> darwin81: i think you should use the expert driver, cuz the simple one is pretty useless and you can't tweak it to get good printing
[12:04] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Try this:
[12:04] <croSmiley> what passcode should i enter in my mobilephone when trying to connect with bluetooth?
[12:04] <mike-a> MrObvious, works, trying to connect
[12:04] <MrObvious> !sources | Hydrate
[12:04] <ubotu> Hydrate: 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
[12:04] <Megaqwerty> croSmiley: whatever you want.
[12:04] <MrObvious> mike-a: I knew it was one of those. There you go. Now if it doesn't work do that after each boot.
[12:04] <MrObvious> mike-a: I can't remember how to make it permanant.
[12:04] <croSmiley> Megaqwerty: how do i se passcode on ubuntu?
[12:04] <croSmiley> *set
[12:04] <strabes> does anyone know if there's a way to make rhythmbox play something you searched for by hitting enter? right now I have to use the mouse...
[12:05] <mike-a> MrObvious, still no DHCPOFFERS
[12:05] <MrObvious> !easysource | Hydrate
[12:05] <ubotu> Hydrate: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[12:05] <Megaqwerty> croSmiley: when you connect from the phone, a box should pop up on Ubuntu
[12:05] <blix_> right Im in root
[12:05] <MrObvious> Hydrate: First try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[12:05] <bzaks> They should update the source-o-matic to include the google repos
[12:05] <blix_> Im sure there is another way of getting to root, but I basically typed in sudo -i
[12:05] <mike-a> MrObvious, wireshark is empty too although Im on a HUB with 5 other guys
[12:05] <blix_> and it worked
[12:05] <MrObvious> mike-a: Well that's a start. At least it's working. Try sudo dhclient
[12:06] <blix_> my prob is...saying dpkg is locked...
[12:06] <Megaqwerty> croSmiley: if not, make sure you have bluetooth and bluez-utils installed
[12:06] <blix_> so need to close synaptic
[12:06] <bzaks> mike-a dhclient3 not dhclient
[12:06] <UrbenLegend> blix_: just do it the gui way
[12:06] <Hydrate> MrObvious: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[12:06] <MrObvious> bzaks: Okay.
[12:06] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Okay.
[12:06] <bzaks> Sorry MrObvious, didn't mean to step on you like that
[12:06] <blix_> can't find package
[12:06] <blix_> :-(
[12:06] <mike-a> MrObvious, already did that, no offers
[12:06] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Let me do some research. You're gonna need to update your repos then.
[12:06] <UrbenLegend> blix_: go to software sources and enable the multiverse repo, and click reload
[12:06] <croSmiley> Megaqwerty: i have, and can see my phone but cant connect, since the phoe is asking for a passcode
[12:06] <Megaqwerty> croSmiley: oh, the package is called bluez-pin
[12:07] <UrbenLegend> blix_: in synaptic
[12:07] <MrObvious> mike-a: Huh. Odd.
[12:07] <croSmiley> Megaqwerty: I have it
[12:07] <MrObvious> mike-a: Maybe reboot? :|
[12:07] <mike-a> MrObvious, my thought exactly
[12:07] <Megaqwerty> croSmiley: which side are you initiating the connection from?
[12:07] <lotug> ubuntu 7.04, apache2, virtual hosting howto?
[12:07] <blix_> Im on 6.0
[12:07] <MrObvious> Hydrate: You'll need to do what !easysource said.
[12:07] <mike-a> MrObvious, tried al my kernels, .15 + .16 lowlatency and generic
[12:07] <blix_> 6.06
[12:07] <MrObvious> !easysource
[12:07] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[12:07] <UrbenLegend> blix_: ooohhh, darn
[12:08] <blix_> I'll update this in a couple of weeks
[12:08] <slipttees> hey
[12:08] <slipttees> extrat file ta.gz ?
[12:08] <blix_> appears there are some useful updates in 7.04
[12:08] <slipttees> tar.gz ?
[12:08] <slipttees> tar -zxvf file ?
[12:08] <mike-a> MrObvious, and windows just gets an IP
[12:08] <Megaqwerty> slipttees: tar xvjf file
[12:08] <croSmiley> Megaqwerty: when initiating from ubuntu, phone says that someone is trying to connect and asks for passcode
[12:08] <UrbenLegend> blix_: i thought you were feisty, shoot i dunno how to get java 6 in older versions, its not in backport either
[12:08] <LinuxUser22> #0,0
[12:08] <kanuha> steveatlocalhost, that option just made my screen horrible in CS Source
[12:08] <blix_> it's ok
[12:09] <blix_> I've opened up the multiverse repositiry
[12:09] <Megaqwerty> croSmiley: how did you initiate from Ubuntu? (I've never figured it out, I always initiate from the phone)
[12:09] <steveatlocalhost> kanhua: what was wrong with it? describe it
[12:09] <croSmiley> Megaqwerty: when trying from phone i see my computer but then it asks again for passcode, and ubuntu doesnt respond
[12:09] <MrObvious> Hydrate: I wish I was on Linux so I could answer your original question directly. :(
[12:09] <blix_> and it dpkg finds the package now
[12:09] <blix_> :-)
[12:09] <blix_> now lets see if limewire installs
[12:09] <croSmiley> Megaqwerty: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[12:09] <Megaqwerty> croSmiley: when doing it from the phone, enter any passcode you want, and then enter the same one when the box pops up on ubuntu
[12:09] <PiRoMaNo> Why isn't my open programs showing up on my bar?
[12:09] <kanuha> steveatlocalhost, I get all kinds of artifacts on the screen when playing
[12:09] <revilodraw> which is better, virtualbox or vmware server?
[12:09] <ubuntu_> ive recovered grub, but now ubuntu wont load
[12:09] <UrbenLegend> blix_: oh wow, okay
[12:09] <mike-a> MrObvious, shall I try it in recovery mode, see if maybe NetworkManager or something is interfering?
