[12:10] <croSmiley> Megaqwerty: ohh :)
[12:10] <blix_> thanks UrbenLegend
[12:10] <steveatlocalhost> kanhua: ok, remove the -gl and -opengl and change 70 to 90 and give that a shot
[12:10] <MrObvious> mike-a: You could.
[12:10] <MrObvious> Hydrate: You there?
[12:10] <kanuha> steveatlocalhost, ok
[12:10] <PiRoMaNo> How do I run Recovery?
[12:10] <mike-a> MrObvious, alright wish me luck, see you in a bit
[12:10] <UrbenLegend> blix_: np
[12:10] <MrObvious> mike-a: Maybe lol. I don't believe in luck but have fun.
[12:10] <croSmiley> Megaqwerty: thanks a lot, this was so stupif :D
[12:10] <MeRodent> PiRoMaNo, add the notification area to your panel
[12:10] <Megaqwerty> croSmiley: you're welcome
[12:11] <Hydrate> MrObvious yes
[12:11] <PiRoMaNo> MeRodant: how?
[12:11] <MrObvious> Hydrate: There you are. Sorry I lost track of you. What stage are you at? Also, why are you needing gnome.h?
[12:11] <MeRodent> PiRoMaNo, right click on the panel. Choose add and pick it from the window.
[12:11] <croSmiley> Megaqwerty: ahh, multisync works, this is my day!
[12:11] <revilodraw> which is better, virtualbox or vmware server?
[12:11] <Megaqwerty> croSmiley: Congratulations! Glad I could help.
[12:12] <PiRoMaNo> MeRodant: Not like that. I mean I have firefox running. But it's not on the Bar, so I can click between x-chat and firefox
[12:12] <Hydrate> MrObvious I am learning C and unfortunately cannot compile any gnome applicationsd without it, ive just performed and apt-update and its done alot mroe than it has before i reset my sources list
[12:12] <MrObvious> revilodraw: There's also qemu. I've never used Virtualbox but I've used VMware and qEMU and I can't say which one is better. I'd say VMware is better.
[12:12] <revilodraw> piromano: also add 'window list' to the panel
[12:12] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Ahh.
[12:13] <PiRoMaNo> How do I do that revilodraw?
[12:13] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Okay did you rebuild your sources then? If so what happens with sudo apt-get install apt-file ? Does it install successfully or give the same error as before.
[12:13] <MrObvious> ?
[12:13] <blix_> My aim: Ubuntu, XP, Vista
[12:13] <revilodraw> MrObvious: lol thanks...
[12:13] <MrObvious> revilodraw: YW.
[12:13] <blix_> should I use GRUB to bootload these?
[12:13] <dumbass> can um, like, someone help me?  my box woe not turn on
[12:13] <blix_> do people still use LILO I thnk it's called?
[12:14] <revilodraw> PiRoMaNo: right click on the panel, and click on add to panel, then look for 'window list'and double click that shizz
[12:14] <Hydrate> MrObvious: apt-file http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36736/
[12:14] <dumbass> blix_: competent people do, try slackware
[12:14] <MrObvious> blix_: Grub. And it should boot fine.
[12:14] <blix_> slackware?
[12:14] <blix_> I don't really want to install another Linux dis
[12:14] <dumbass> blix_: yeah, it's a little nicer and doesn't break all the time
[12:14] <PiRoMaNo> I did revilodraw nothing happened
[12:14] <Tiradin> blah... Anyone have any suggestions for installing Ubuntu on a IBM Thinkpad T32?
[12:14] <blix_> lol
[12:14] <blix_> so what u doing in Ubuntu?
[12:14] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Ok good news. Do a sudo apt-file update and it'll take a few minutes. Let me know when it's done.
[12:15] <Pici> fragment: http://www.thinkwiki.org
[12:15] <dumbass> blix_: i need um, like, help because my box woe not turn on
[12:15] <Tiradin> [-] Pici[-]  thanks
[12:15] <Tiradin> sorry abou tthe colours.
[12:15] <dumbass> oh, btw, blix_ you can find out all about slackware in ##slackware
[12:15] <Tiradin> bout*
[12:15] <revilodraw> PiRoMaNo: did you also add 'window selector'? and if so, what problem are you having which u cant fix?
[12:15] <MrObvious> dumbass: Why are you suggesting slack here? Also I don't like your nick personally.
[12:15] <blix_> yeah I've been referred to slackware
[12:15] <blix_> might add a partition for it
[12:15] <dumbass> MrObvious: I'm sorry that you're oversensitive.  I hope you can overcome your differences.
[12:16] <blix_> unpacking sun
[12:16] <blix_> :-)
[12:16] <Tiradin> T23, actually...
[12:16] <MrObvious> blix_: You can try Slack, but Ubuntu has support for booting XP and Vista I believe through Grub. It should work out of the box.
[12:16] <dfletcher> Hydrate, maybe I've missed something here, but can't you get gnome.h with: sudo apt-get install libgnome-dev libgnomeui-dev  ?
[12:16] <revilodraw> dumbass: no offence, but ur nick isnt a great incentive to follow ur advicd
[12:16] <blix_> yeah, I've yet to try Grub
[12:16] <dumbass> MrObvious: actually, vista boots fine from lilo on slackware install
[12:16] <Pici> Tiradin: This channel is +c, the rest of us dont see any colors/formatting :)
[12:16] <Hydrate> MrObvious: no, ive installed and reinstalled those pacakges yet the file still isnt on my computer
[12:16] <PiRoMaNo_> revilodraw: Still nothing...I had ubuntu installed before and It didn't do that. ANd It's still not working
[12:16] <blix_> will Grub let you mess around with the partitions on your HDD?
[12:16] <mike-a> MrObvious, well im in single user now, didn't even have to configure anything just got the right IP right away
[12:17] <dumbass> blix_: no, but lilo will
[12:17] <MrObvious> dumbass: Yes but is this ##slackware? No. It's #ubuntu so you should give out Ubuntu advise or stay out.
[12:17] <blix_> does Lilo have more advance capability?
[12:17] <dumbass> MrObvious: oh, sorry, I was fixing his problem with ubuntu.  Please stop harrassing me.
[12:17] <MrObvious> blix_: Yes Grub will. Ignore him please. Grub is more advanced than Lilo AFAIK.
[12:17] <dumbass> blix_: yeah, it's also easier to change the look and feel of it
[12:17] <MrObvious> mike-a: Cool.
[12:18] <blix_> mmm...ok Grub it is
[12:18] <ubuntu_> ubuntu wont load
[12:18] <dumbass> blix_: lilo is also more stable
[12:18] <Hydrate> MrObvious apt-file update is done
[12:18] <blix_> lol
[12:18] <ubuntu_> it freezes as its loading
[12:18] <blix_> I'm going to try Grub first
[12:18] <MrObvious> blix_: But Grub is designed to have more features but Lilo is for ease of use.
[12:18] <MrObvious> blix_: And Ubuntu can be used with Lilo but I've never done it.
[12:18] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Okay apt-file search gnome.h
[12:18] <dumbass> MrObvious: not true....there's nothing grub can do that lilo can't do with a little less work
[12:18] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Which package is it in?
[12:18] <blix_> mmm, appears to be advantages and disadvantages for both
[12:19] <blix_> I'll try Grub first
[12:19] <Hydrate> ubuntu_ it does that alot for me too, at first i thought it was my pc but after installing it on 3 of them im assuming its a bug in ubuntu
[12:19] <MrObvious> blix_: Yeah as grub is native to Ubuntu anyway. It should work. If you have problems poeple here or on the forums are more than willing to help.
[12:19] <marsje> what happened to the gutsy tribe-6 release?
[12:19] <Tiradin> Will Ubuntu run quite smoothly on this laptop? (Thinkpad T23)
[12:19] <ubuntu_> well the thing is, it used to work, but then i tried dualbooting windows
[12:19] <dumbass> blix_: as it's default with ubuntu, that's a good call, but honestly, if you get more into linux, you'll want slackware, anyway
[12:19] <ubuntu_> and now niether will load
[12:19] <PiRoMaNo> How do I run a recovery?
[12:19] <MrObvious> Tiradin: You might look on the forums for Thinkpad T23 (http://ubuntuforums.org)
[12:19] <blix_> so how does one install and use Grub...I want to eventually have Ubuntu, XP, Vista on boot
[12:20] <dumbass> Tiradin: you might have to use slackware-- you can see which works better by using a slax cd and comparing it to an ubuntu livecd
[12:20] <Tiradin> [-] MrObvious[-]  Thank you
[12:20] <MrObvious> Tiradin: YW.
[12:20] <bzaks> Can anyone help me figure out what's going on? My computer keeps freezing on on the "libc6-udeb". I checked the bug reports, and there's nothing really solid on it... but I've tried with 3 different CD drives. (including one that has been used to install ubuntu on this very machine)
[12:20] <Hydrate> MrObvious http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36738/\
[12:20] <MrObvious> dumbass: Would you stop please. DOn't make me involve the chanops.
[12:20] <blix_> I would ideally like to have different partitions formats
[12:20] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[12:20] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:20] <dumbass> MrObvious: I don't much appreciate being called that, and please leave me alone while I correct the ubuntu problems as they arise.
[12:20] <blix_> so XP, Vista - NTFS, and Ubuntu - ext3
[12:20] <Hydrate> ubuntu_ the only way i have found to fix this problem is to disconnject my wireless keyboard as it boots
[12:21] <bzaks> blix_ yes
[12:21] <blix_> right now my whole hard drive is on ext3...which is really frustrating trying to install XP and Vista
[12:21] <dumbass> blix_: in lilo you type 'liloconfig' and it automatically sets it all up for you
[12:21] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Try sudo apt-get install libgnome-dev libgnome2-dev libgnomeui-dev
[12:21] <blix_> 'automatically' - thats got to be too good to be true
[12:21] <dumbass> blix_: you'll want to install xp and vista _first_ or use a livecd after the installs
[12:21] <MrObvious> PriceChild: dumbass is trying to get people to use slackware instead of offering suggesitons for Ubuntu.
[12:21] <MrObvious> *suggestions
[12:21] <dumbass> blix_: i do it all the time
[12:22] <PiRoMaNo> Does anyone know if mIRC works with WINE?
[12:22] <dumbass> PiRoMaNo: it does
[12:22] <Hydrate> MrObvious http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36739/
[12:22] <MrObvious> PiRoMaNo: I used it. Yes. But xchat is better IMO.
[12:22] <aztec13> don't bite my head off :) but i saw you gentlemen were having trouble with a doual boot.I wanted to share this reference I think is possibly the best avail. it could probably help you guys out http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/
[12:22] <bzaks> PiroMano: why would you want to use mIRC over wine?
[12:22] <Tiradin> PrioMano: Yes it does, and I agree with MrObvious.
[12:22] <MrObvious> PiRoMaNo: Just make sure you don't install xchat-gnome.
[12:22] <dumbass> aztec13: no need for a book
[12:22] <MrObvious> PiRoMaNo: You'll need to change your sources around to get it. Try !easysource
[12:22] <aztec13> not a book
[12:22] <MrObvious> !easysource | PiRoMaNo
[12:22] <ubotu> PiRoMaNo: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[12:22] <PiRoMaNo> Because all my IRC scripting is in mIRC...and I dislike x-chat.
[12:22] <z0rz> If I were to hand make the partitions for Ubuntu... What would I need .. Just an ext3 and a swap partition?
[12:22] <blix_> dumbass, well whatever it takes to install Vista, XP and Ubuntu on one HDD
[12:23] <dumbass> MrObvious: that's not true at all-- please don't give bad advice.  mIRC runs with a default install of wine.
[12:23] <blix_> I've been advised it's best to install Vista first
[12:23] <bzaks> z0rz: pretty much
[12:23] <dumbass> blix_: it is, it likes to take over the bootloader
[12:23] <blix_> and then your choice of Linux distro first
[12:23] <MrObvious> dumbass: I said it works. Read what I said and stop flaming me.
[12:23] <PriceChild> blix_, install ubuntu last so you don't have to worry about the bootloader
[12:23] <PriceChild> MrObvious, dumbass please lets stay on topic, ignore each other if need be
[12:24] <nerdboy1024> can anyone tell me how to control another ubuntu computer from another location
[12:24] <z0rz> bzaks: what else would I n\weed to do specifically?
[12:24] <MeRodent> blix_, if you want Vista, XP and ubuntu. Install XP first then VIsta then ubuntu.
[12:24] <PriceChild> nerdboy1024, ssh?
[12:24] <blix_> PriceChild ... that is the intention
[12:24] <Drule> You guys look like you could do with a good joke.
[12:24] <Drule> A priest and a rabbi walk into a bar
[12:24] <Drule> except there is no rabbi
[12:24] <PriceChild> !offtopic | Drule
[12:24] <ubotu> Drule: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:24] <Drule> fine.
[12:24] <jplove71> lol Drule
[12:24] <bzaks> z0rz: go to #tempchat
[12:24] <nerdboy1024> price, no i need to control gnobe
[12:24] <Drule> Be that way.
[12:24] <MrObvious> nerdboy1024: Do you want command line or through like VNC?
[12:24] <blix_> MeRodent ..ok..well my laptop came with VIsta
[12:24] <blix_> so I'm waiting for the recovery discs to arrive
[12:24] <nerdboy1024> vnc
[12:24] <dumbass> blix_: or you could install lilo with a livecd and avoid the whole mess of bootloaders altogether, just remembr which dev/hd# has your linux kernel on it and which partitions have what os's installed-- best to write it out on paper while you're doing it
[12:24] <blix_> so Vista goes on first
[12:24] <MrObvious> !vnc | nerdboy1024
[12:25] <ubotu> nerdboy1024: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[12:25] <MeRodent> blix_, It's just that VIsta will dual boot with XP. You may have problems getting it to work the other way around.
[12:25] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Did you get those installed?
[12:25] <PiRoMaNo> MrObvious: Does AIM work with wine? And can you link me to a site that has a list of items that works with wine?
[12:25] <blix_> dumbass..thanks for the advice, I will need to carefully plan this out
[12:25] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Did it work?
[12:25] <blix_> I messed my Vista partition before
[12:25] <robotpoke> hello, how do i determine the amount of ram on my computer in kubuntu?
[12:25] <evri2> which repo do you suggest for compiz-fusion?
[12:25] <blix_> and even managed to remove the HDD recovery portion
[12:25] <neol> can someone tell me how to open an port in iptables. ???
[12:25] <MrObvious> PiRoMaNo: No clue. Try winehq (might be winehq.com but you may have to google the link).
[12:25] <PriceChild> !effects | evri2
[12:25] <dumbass> blix_: depends on which bootloader you use, honestly-- if you messup the order you can still fix it.  I wouldn't worry about your vista partition--- if I understand right it's ntfs which you can prepare with fdisk
[12:25] <ubotu> evri2: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[12:25] <nerdboy1024> MrObvious, any particular VNC u recommend?
[12:26] <Hydrate>  MrObvious yes i did and no it has not worked, i am still missing the file
[12:26] <PriceChild> neol, what are you really trying to do?
[12:26] <Inquisitoramous> where can I get the 64bit version of Fusion-icon?
[12:26] <Esteth> PiRoMaNo: Use GAIM / Pidgin for IMing, which is native. winhq's appdb tells you about compatibility
[12:26] <PriceChild> !effects | Inquisitoramous
[12:26] <astro76> robotpoke, not sure about kde but in any linux terminal type: free -m
[12:26] <PiRoMaNo> I don't like Gaim >.>
[12:26] <MrObvious> PiRoMaNo: But there are ways to get on AIM's service like pidgin.
[12:26] <ubotu> Inquisitoramous: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[12:26] <blix_> GAIM is bit simple, but works
[12:26] <neol> PriceChild: try to get an port forwarded sign in utorrent which is running in wine.
[12:26] <dumbass> blix_: try pidgin
[12:26] <MrObvious> nerdboy1024: For a client on Winblows Unreal. For a Linux server Tight.
[12:26] <aztec13> qik Q I have a WAV of a bell on my desktop.Xfce mail notifier has 2 spots for entering commands ,1 if you clk the icon and 1 to ap something with a positive mail in box.What are the commands to set it so the bell trips on each of these events?
[12:26] <robotpoke> astro76: perfect, thanks!
[12:26] <PriceChild> MrObvious, please suggest gaim.
[12:26] <Esteth> blix_: I'm using pidgin, and i don't see whats so simple about it really :S
[12:26] <blix_> lol
[12:27] <MrObvious> PriceChild: Gaim was replaced by pidgin. So I suggest pidgin :p.
[12:27] <blix_> pdigin..another bootloader program?
[12:27] <MrObvious> PriceChild: Actualy it was renamed.
[12:27] <PriceChild> MrObvious, pidgin is not in ubuntu. So please suggest gaim as it works perfectly.
[12:27] <lotug> Need detailed instructions on setting up Virtual Hosting on Apache2, Ubuntu 7.04, please.
[12:27] <dumbass> pidgin is the new gaim-- it's by the same people-- gaim is an abandoned project
[12:27] <Esteth> blix_: pidgin is the new gaim, after AOL hassled them about the name.
[12:27] <MrObvious> PriceChild: Not only that but the guy doesn't like gaim. :\ But okay.
[12:27] <neol> ??
[12:27] <blix_> ah right
[12:27] <PriceChild> !lamp | lotug
[12:27] <ubotu> lotug: 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+)
[12:27] <bzaks> PriceChild: why is pidgin not in ubuntu?
[12:27] <PriceChild> bzaks, it will be in ubuntu 7.10 in october
[12:27] <blix_> k
[12:27] <MrObvious> !info pidgin
[12:28] <blix_> !info pidgin
[12:28] <ubotu> Package pidgin does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[12:28] <t5_4a> meh
[12:28] <bzaks> YAY GUTSY GIBBON!
[12:28] <blix_> oops
[12:28] <PriceChild> bzaks, ubuntu only gets critical security and bug fixes after release to ensure stability
[12:28] <t5_4a> pidgin sounds dumb
[12:28] <bzaks> I'm so pumped
[12:28] <dumbass> though, if the process here is suggesting inferior, obsolete software, I would suggest gaim for an _ubuntu_ setup
[12:28] <t5_4a> they should have kept the name :/
[12:28] <blix_> it won't catch on
[12:28] <chief> t5_4a: blame AOL
[12:28] <Esteth> bzaks: Because 7.04 wasn't realeased in time. pidgin runs fine under 7.04 though
[12:28] <neol> can someone help me on how to unblock a port. ?
[12:28] <dumbass> blix_: it already has
[12:28] <PriceChild> dumbass, it is not obselete, it works perfectly
[12:28] <t5_4a> oh was there a lawsuit or something?
[12:28] <dumbass> PriceChild: ubuntu or gaim?
[12:28] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[12:28] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:29] <MrObvious> It's possible to set up pidgin via the installer on pidgin's site for Linux just fine. But we have been requested to say gaim I guess.
[12:29] <meoblast001> hello... i ussually dont try to rush people in here, but i have little time and i need to know something... i need an MTP or MSC driver for my MP3 player.... where can i get this?
[12:29] <neol> MrObvious: can u help me, cause pelo could not come up with a solution.
[12:30] <ochosi> houston, we have a problem. i just wanted to put the nvidia module into my kernel, ran the "sudo m-a update" and then the "prepare" commands and when i wanted to enter "m-a auto-install nvidia" i forgot the nvidia and now the module-assistant keeps on putting ALL the packages he can into my kernel... is there any way of undoing this and removing all the useless modules from my kernel?
[12:30] <lotug> ubotu: thanks, I've already installed, MySQL, PHP, Apache2 and it works with default install.  But after following FAQ's on how to setup Virtual Hosting, it crashes.  I am not sure what I am missing.  So am looking for something that guides you step by step.
[12:30] <dumbass> MrObvious: well that makes perfect sense.  Let's suggest more buggy, older software for a distro that prides itself on using the newest versions of software regardless of regressions in the functionality of that software
[12:30] <PriceChild> lotug, ubotu is a bot
[12:30] <MrObvious> neol: No. I g2g sorry.
[12:30] <dumbass> MrObvious: why not just build gaim/pidgin from source?
[12:31] <MrObvious> dumbass: PriceChild is an op and has requested we suggest gaim.  I agree in your case but that's beyond my control.
[12:31] <neol> MrObvious: ok,, then i'm also going. :(, looks like no one can help.
[12:31] <dumbass> installers aren't to be trusted, anyway until a universal package manager is fgond to be stable
[12:31] <bzaks> I use pidgin, just because gaim would crash
[12:31] <MrObvious> neol: Just ask generally in the channel.
[12:31] <PriceChild> dumbass, MrObvious gaim is in ubuntu and _is supported_ by ubuntu
[12:31] <Hydrate> MrObvious any ideas?
[12:31] <PriceChild> dumbass, MrObvious please don't suggest pidgin as its simply not needed and a hell of effort
[12:31] <sidu> sudo apt-get install php5-gd  -- successful in other pc -- but gives me an error in this pc -- any idea ?
[12:32] <bzaks> GD is great! Images on the fly!
[12:32] <MrObvious> Hydrate: I need to go. :( No clue. You might have to try google.
[12:32] <neol> how do i unblock or use some firewalls like firestarter or lokkit to get a forwarded port for my utorrent. ???? :)
[12:32] <MrObvious> PriceChild: I wasn't.
[12:32] <dumbass> PriceChild: it's gaim with a different name-- it's by the same people; it's simply a newer version of the same program.  gaim = pidgin.
[12:32] <PriceChild> MrObvious, never said you were
[12:32] <PriceChild> dumbass, please re-read what I said.
[12:32] <sidu> can not install package
[12:32] <osxdude|laptop> I am trying to use a P2K program called moto4lin. It seems to not be connecting. The phone has been connected to P2K before on a Windows computer
[12:32] <bzaks> pidgin = gaim - some fun plugins
[12:32] <dumbass> PriceChild: I did and respoded articulately.
[12:32] <Flannel> neol: You need to do the forwarding at your router, not your computer
[12:32] <Hydrate> MrObvious alright thanbk you, but i came here because i gave up with google, heh, im sure il find a way
[12:32] <osxdude|laptop> How can I fix this?
[12:32] <Phlosten> howdy all
[12:32] <scipio> neol, that has nothing to do with the default firewall. you have to fiddle with your router
[12:32] <MrObvious> Hydrate: Sorry. Try ##c
[12:33] <neol> Flannel: but all the ports r open in my routers, but ubuntu seems to be blcoking the ports.
[12:33] <bzaks> osxdude|laptop: use a VM (would be my best choice)
[12:33] <neol> scipio: i have already configures my router.
[12:33] <Hydrate> MrObvious will do
[12:33] <Esteth> dumbass: While i agree with you, i think PriceChild knows fine well that pidgin is just a continuation of gaim, but he also knows that there is no .deb in synaptic for pidgin, and as such it can be difficult to obtain for linux newbies.
[12:33] <osxdude|laptop> bzaks...any other choises
[12:33] <Phlosten> has anyone had experience with a Laser brand usb KVM, or any other usb KVM that doesnt connect to Ubuntu properly?
[12:33] <dumbass> So we're using grub because it's newer and gaim because it's older and ....what version of the kernel?  not the latest stable release....?

[12:33] <lns> Is there a way to force group permissions on files/dirs under Linux (non-samba, we're talking native linux ext3 filesystem)?
[12:33] <dumbass> Esteth: it takes 5 minutes to write an installation script, even from source
[12:33] <neol> anyone who can help me here. ? or
[12:34] <MrObvious> dumbass: You really like to cause trouble don't you?
[12:34] <PriceChild> lns, what are you really trying to do?
[12:34] <Flannel> neol: You'd have to forward the port on your router, so it knows where to go.  Ubuntu has no software firewall turned on by default, so unless you've blocked things, you won't need to unblock them.
[12:34] <dumbass> MrObvious: I am progressive and intellectual-- things that are stupid or inferior are to be rejected.
[12:34] <PriceChild> !offtopic > dumbass
[12:34] <MrObvious> neol: BTW you may have the router incorrectly set up. If you want come back and I'll be on tomorrow to try to go through the router with you. You might call your router manufacturer and see if they have any ideas.
[12:34] <lns> PriceChild, I'm trying to create a dir (/home/share/computerlab) and have all files created in that dir forced to have g+rwx perms for 'computerlab' unix group.
[12:34] <bzaks> osxdude|laptop: just out of curiosity: have you tried using WINE to run the same program?
[12:34] <Hodapp> dumbass: "progressive" and "intellectual" are not titles you bestow upon yourself, only that others can bestow upon you.
[12:34] <PiRoMaNo> Back <.<
[12:34] <MrObvious> Bye everyone.
[12:35] <PriceChild> !offtopic > Hodapp
[12:35] <neol> Flannel: ok i tried a port on my azureus where i got an port forwarded message but if i use the same port in utorrent the port is not forwarded.
[12:35] <dumbass> Hodapp: it's not my fault you don't understand the world around you, or the societies that preside in it.
[12:35] <PriceChild> lns, so what's wrong?
[12:35] <osxdude|laptop> bzaks. I will try that.
[12:35] <bzaks> good luck!
[12:35] <Hodapp> dumbass: Would you like to go to #politics?
[12:35] <dumbass> Hodapp: meet me in #offtopic
[12:35] <Flannel> neol: Is azureus still open?  You might check netstat to see if the port's in use
[12:36] <jplove71> So... I finally get my dual monitor display to work only for it to break CompizFusion.  Anyone have some ideas/suggestions on how I may go about getting CF to work again?
[12:36] <lns> PriceChild, ..? maybe I just thought of my own answer...does the user's primary group have to be 'computerlab' for them to create a file with group ownership of 'computerlab' ?
[12:36] <neol> MrObvious: i already spoke to them in detail and after checking my router from their place they said that all the ports r open for me, and i personally resetted my router.
[12:36] <jplove71> (I know this should be asked in #ubuntu-effects, but no response there)
[12:36] <dumbass> lns: it helps
[12:36] <osxdude|laptop> bzaks. Trying now
[12:36] <neol> Flannel: azureus is closed.
[12:36] <PriceChild> lns, a user has to be in the group to assign its ownership to something... but you are in lots of groups.
[12:36] <Hodapp> dumbass: You're not there... have you conceded?
[12:36] <dumbass> Hodapp: no, I was blowing you off.
[12:37] <lns> PriceChild, correct. So I guess the question is "how do you force a certain group to own all files within a certain directory?"
[12:37] <neol> Flannel: same ports cannot b used simultaneously at a time.
[12:37] <neol> Flannel: with 2 difff apps
[12:37] <Hodapp> dumbass: You've conceded. Don't even bother discussing it here.
[12:37] <dumbass> lns: a script and cron
[12:37] <jrib> lns: you may want to look at Access Control Lists
[12:37] <dumbass> Hodapp: sorry, I missed that.
[12:37] <lns> jrib, are you saying that's the only way to accomplish it? I can't use standard ext3 file perms to do this?
[12:37] <Hodapp> dumbass: Anything further is to be said in #offtopic.
[12:38] <jrib> lns: you can force group ownership with setgid on the directory but it won't affect the actual group permissions the file is created with

[12:38] <dfletcher> Hydrate, I have a question about your prob: are you seeing the file in /usr/include/gnome-1.0/gnome.h but it's just not working in your c proggie? if so, try compiling like this: gcc `pkg-config gnome --cflags` source.c -o myproggie

[12:38] <Flannel> PiRoMaNo: why not use a native client?

[12:38] <slackware_> find your wine directory, run the file

[12:39] <Flannel> !automatix | jplove71
[12:39] <ubotu> jplove71: 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.

[12:45] <Jowi> PiRoMaNo, most likely yes.
[12:45] <dfletcher> Hydrate, add --libs to the pkg-config part, so it reads `pkg-config gnome --cflags --libs`

[12:46] <neramos> does anyone know a good and simple to use firewall command line for Ubuntu server ?

[12:46] <Hydrate> dfletcher the same error

[12:47] <ompaul> slackware_, ??
[12:47] <GoAuLd> wich version of ubuntu should i download for a "INTEL CORE 2 DUO KAPTOP" 32 BIT or 64 Bit ?
[12:47] <PriceChild> slackware_, please do not abuse the bot.
[12:47] <hmpmstrH> cgi proxy help anyone?
[12:47] <slackware_> PriceChild: wouldn't "man iptables" be more functional?
[12:47] <neol> GoAuLd: how much of ram do u have. ?
[12:47] <MeRodent> neol, my guess would be that the firewall is totally open
[12:47] <GoAuLd> 4 GB
[12:47] <jrib> GoAuLd: you can use either, but 32bit is recommended for a desktop system.  I wouldn't recommend using 64bit unless you have a very good reason
[12:48] <neol> MeRodent: yes that is what i thought too. thx
[12:48] <GoAuLd> jrib why ?
[12:48] <PriceChild> neramos, as slackware_ has pointed out, you should also read "man iptables" - type it into a terminal and you get hte manual :)
[12:48] <neol> GoAuLd: go for 64 bit.
[12:48] <GoAuLd> wich is faster?
[12:48] <jrib> GoAuLd: closed source things like flash and sun java plugin are not available for 64bit, so you will have some extra work if you want them
[12:48] <neramos> PriceChild thx

[12:49] <slackware_> so uh....who's in charge in this cracker shack?
[12:49] <neol> GoAuLd: apps which require huge ram, than 64 bit is required, if ur using normal apps then stick to 32 bit
[12:49] <dfletcher> Hydrate, well that's weird. can you pastebin the output of just running pkgconfig gnome --cflags --libs please?
[12:50] <slackware_> digitalspaghetti: what's the problem?  did you forget your problem?
[12:50] <lns> jrib, awesome. I honestly forgot all about the sticky bit. =) now is there any way to force g+rwx perms on files created in a certain dir?
[12:50] <nj786__> how do i save a document in openoffice so that if i email it to somebody that document (windows user) they can read it?
[12:50] <bzaks> can anyone help me set up a network install?
[12:50] <GoAuLd> but using 64 will give me at least speed improvement?
[12:50] <PriceChild> GoAuLd, not very noticable....
[12:50] <jrib> lns: I only know of using ACLs to do that
[12:50] <dfletcher> Hydrate, err sorry, that should have been "pkg-config"

[12:50] <digitalspaghetti> slackware_, no i'm trying to install MySQL on a Ubuntu server
[12:50] <neol> GoAuLd: it depends on the apps u use.
[12:50] <MrObvious> Hi.
[12:50] <digitalspaghetti> but i'm getting the error i've pasted
[12:50] <PriceChild> GoAuLd, only significantly on things like openssh server, heavy mysql databasing and video encoding
[12:50] <lns> jrib, ok... thanks buddy you've been a great help!
[12:50] <neol> MrObvious: i thought u had left :P
[12:50] <GoAuLd> ok then i will use 32
[12:51] <slackware_> digitalspaghetti: wrong OS for MySQL use-- ubuntu is a desktop oriented system-- you need a semi, like slackware.  you can find out about it in ##slackware
[12:51] <jrib> lns: np, hope you find a good solution
[12:51] <GoAuLd> the hughest app i use is tremulous, a game

[12:52] <astro76> slackware_, this channel is to help people with UBUNTU
[12:52] <slackware_> or everytime you pull up a shell
[12:52] <nj786_> slackware, are you talking about the application of the link?

[12:52] <slackware_> astro76: I agree and am using it accordingly
[12:52] <lns> slackware_, ugh...that wouldn't work on a live system with 20+ users on it at the same time
[12:52] <lns> thanks thou
[12:52] <slackware_> nj786_: openoffice.org has a channel on htis server

[12:56] <bzaks> Perhaps you should uninstall and reinstall mysql using apt-get
[12:56] <bzaks> because it said this:0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. 1 not fully installed or removed.
[12:56] <digitalspaghetti> fresh install bzaks
[12:57] <slackware__> digitalspaghetti no, don't uninstall, read the manual!
[12:57] <digitalspaghetti> yea, it downloaded already bzaks
[12:57] <bzaks> I would say a fresh install would probably fix it fastest
[12:58] <MeRodent> Any suggestions (apart from run slackware) as to why one of my computers craps itself when running X800 with xgl since the kernel update? Despite it woking perfectly using MESA GL?
[12:58] <Downix> ok, does anyone know Athlon models well?
[12:58] <Hydrate> im going bed, night all
[12:58] <bzaks> I use an Athlon Model
[12:58] <bzaks> 'night hydrate
[12:58] <kitche> MeRodent, how did you install the fglrx?
[12:58] <Downix> I have a CPU that lists as a Sempron 3200+, but it's a SocketA
[12:58] <digitalspaghetti> bzaks, fresh 7,04 server installed, all i've installed is php5 and apache2, nothing else
[12:58] <Downix> there is no SocketA Sempron 3200+'s listed anywhere
[12:58] <neol> Downix: so ?
[12:59] <bzaks> Downix: is this going to affect functionality?
[12:59] <Downix> I'm trying to identify the proper FSB for it
[12:59] <bzaks> 400 Mhz
[12:59] <nj786_> slackware, nobody is responding
[12:59] <chris_punches> hehe
[12:59] <MeRodent> kitche: Before the update following the instuctions to get Beryl working on ati. Following the update using both apt-get and installing restricted drivers.
[12:59] <Downix> ok
[12:59] <chris_punches> Wow your ops are idiots.
[12:59] <JzaMedia> Hi all I'm looking for some dutch peepz who know something about FTD
[12:59] <cafuego> Daar heeft geen van ons enig idee over.
[01:00] <bzaks> digitalspaghetti: do a sudo apt-get remove mysql
[01:00] <Flannel> nj786_: does OOo not offer to save as .doc?
[01:00] <xivulon> can someone pls tell me what are the
[01:00] <bzaks> and then do an install
[01:00] <Ghlave> any raid gurus present?
[01:00] <cafuego> !ask
[01:00] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:00] <bzaks> okay, I've got class
[01:00] <bzaks> see you guys later!
[01:00] <bzaks> bai!
[01:00] <logan> I have a stero output, line in, and microphone jack on my sound card. In windows I was able to set the line in to be the rear channel for my 5.1 and the microphone port as the center/sub channel. Is this possible in linux?
[01:00] <nj786_> Flannel: ooo?
[01:00] <MeRodent> kitche, But the problem is only using xgl. It occurs with the native ati or vesa drivers too.
[01:00] <Downix> I was concerned because the only 3200+ SocketA's I've seen listed could be 333Mhz or 400Mhz
[01:00] <Flannel> nj786_: OpenOffice.org
[01:00] <Downix> but both were AthlonXP's, not Semprons
[01:00] <xivulon> can someone pls tell me what are the access seettings of /dev/console? ls -al /dev/console
[01:00] <jplove71> Flannel, Yes, OOo does offer to save as .doc format.
[01:01] <nj786_> Flannel: if its a .doc windows users can read it on word?
[01:01] <cafuego> xivulon: 600
[01:01] <Tiradin> I know this isn't Ubuntu related, but would anyone happen to know how well SuSE would run on something with 256 of ram -.-
[01:01] <cafuego> 0600 even
[01:01] <jplove71> nj786_, Yes.
[01:01] <Jimmey> I am trying to render a 3D scene using the yafray renderer supplied in Ubuntu's repositories, which used to run fine. It's not running alot more slowly, and the renderer's toll on the system seems to be greater. In the system monitor, I notice that yafray's using most of the system's ram, although the ram is never in 100% use, and even some of the swap partition - Why is it all of a sudden taking so long, and using so much of the c
[01:01] <Iradigalesc> Is any package necessari to use python locales? I tryed to use en_US but it dosn't work
[01:01] <kitche> MeRodent, well native ati and vesa drivers can't use xgl anyways what does xgl do when it crashes
[01:01] <xivulon> cafuego thx
[01:01] <nj786_> jplove71: ok thats what i wanted to know thanks lol
[01:01] <dfletcher> what is it with all the questions/comments about other dists today?! get a room people!! ;D
[01:01] <nj786_> Flannel: thats all i wanted to know thanks
[01:01] <jplove71> nj786_, np  =)
[01:02] <MrObvious> Ahh better.
[01:02] <Flannel> nj786_: yes.  rtf would also work, but you'll lose some formatting.  Also, you can save as a pdf too, then they can open it in acrobat (not edit though, if you're looking for editability)
[01:02] <MeRodent> kitche, looks like the screen is redrawn multiple times on top of itself.
[01:02] <Downix> dfletcher: I could start talking OpenBSD and scare them off?
[01:02] <dfletcher> :P
[01:02] <xivulon> cafuego. what do you get if you run: check-foreground-console;echo $?
[01:02] <Downix> dfletcher: The wrath of Theo!!!
[01:02] <flyingoober> ls
[01:02] <poul|raider> What is the most used window manager on ubuntu atm`=?
[01:03] <PriceChild> poul|raider, metacity
[01:03] <MrObvious> Probably Gnome guessing by the amount of people on here.
[01:03] <cafuego> xivulon: 0
[01:03] <Downix> poul|raider: AmiWM!  8)
[01:03] <_ropak_> poul|raider, xfce
[01:03] <xivulon> cafuego: hmm I get 2
[01:03] <neol> +1 for gnome
[01:03] <poul|raider> PriceChild, hows that compaired to beryl?
[01:03] <dfletcher> gnome is a wm? news to me ;)
[01:03] <jplove71> MrObvious, Gnome is not a window manager.  It is a desktop environment.
[01:03] <poul|raider> :P
[01:03] <PriceChild> poul|raider, metacity is the default 2d window manager
[01:03] <MrObvious> jplove71: Well technicalities. Whateer.
[01:03] <MrObvious> *whatever
[01:03] <erlinux> im justing testing opera's irc
[01:03] <PriceChild> poul|raider, beryl/compiz talk in #ubuntu-effects
[01:03] <neol> sorry that was metacity.
[01:04] <cafuego> xivulon: I think you;'ll need to use the source, the tool has no --help option or manpage.
[01:04] <poul|raider> well is beryl still being worked on? belived it was stoped
[01:04] <cafuego> xivulon: Actually, perhaps 'strace check-foreground-console'
[01:04] <PriceChild> poul|raider, #ubuntu-effects
[01:04] <poul|raider> half a year since i had linux booted up :)
[01:04] <MeRodent> poul|raider, it's merged with compiz
[01:04] <poul|raider> oki PriceChild
[01:05] <jplove71> What folder do downloaded themes go in?
[01:05] <neol> /.themes jplove71
[01:05] <neol> in home directory jplove71
[01:05] <MrObvious> jplove71: ~/.themes
[01:05] <MrObvious> neol: :p
[01:05] <neol> ;)
[01:05] <MrObvious> neol: Now I'm in Linux and I am free :D.
[01:06] <kitche> poul|raider, beryl is a "dead" project
[01:06] <xivulon> cafuego how do I interpret the result?
[01:06] <PiRoMaNo> WHere'd that Jowi fella go?
[01:06] <neol> MrObvious: so what :)
[01:06] <poul|raider> btw, i normaly use windows as it find it better to game on(wow). But i dont get much for having a new grafic card in linux gaming do i?
[01:06] <MrObvious> neol: I'm not on Winblows anymore.
[01:06] <MrObvious> neol: Was it you trying to use uTorrent? Or was that someone else?
[01:06] <neol> MrObvious: hehe, it was me
[01:06] <Jimmey> poul|raider, what do you mean?
[01:06] <xivulon> cafuego: open("/dev/console", O_RDWR)            = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
[01:06] <MrObvious> poul|raider: Do you have an NVidia or ATi card?
[01:07] <Downix> hmm... trying to get a USB drive to mount in RW mode
[01:07] <neol> MrObvious: tell me what to do now. ?
[01:07] <Downix> and having little luck
[01:07] <poul|raider> nvidia 8800
[01:07] <MrObvious> neol: Did you ever geti tt o work?
[01:07] <ochosi> hi, i installed the wacom-kernel-source via m-a "by accident" (long story...). could anyone tell me how to remove it since it seems to be in the way of installing fakeroot
[01:07] <MrObvious> poul|raider: There are drivers.
[01:07] <neol> MrObvious: does not work.
[01:07] <poul|raider> i am just getting the feeling that windows get more out of it then when playing in linux? is it just me or?
[01:07] <MrObvious> ochosi: What happens with sudo apt-get remove wacom-kernel-source ?
[01:07] <kitche> Downix, hmm for me USB's are mounted RW auto but is this a drive and not a thumbdrive?
[01:07] <Downix> kitche: It's a 60GB HD
[01:08] <MrObvious> neol: Okay so the router is fine because you have Azuerus working right?
[01:08] <kitche> Downix, formatted as what?
[01:08] <neol> MrObvious: yes sir
[01:08] <Downix> kitche: FAT32
[01:08] <Jimmey> poul|raider, my nVidia performs better on Linux
[01:08] <kitche> Downix, then you should have permissions to write to it
[01:08] <xivulon> cafuego: I do not understand how I am supposed to open /dev/console rw if the permission is 0600, who comes that is not an issue for you?
[01:08] <Downix> kitche: I'll tinker to make it work
[01:09] <poul|raider> ok, Jimmey
[01:09] <MrObvious> neol: Hmm. Can you remove the firewall then? I don't think Ubuntu comes with a firewall stock.
[01:09] <neol> MrObvious: plz do tell fast the solution, coz its 4.40 AM and i have got to sleep buddy.
[01:09] <massimo_> i cannot understand
[01:09] <jeeves__> has anyone found a fix for the sound on Toshiba laptops yet?
[01:09] <cafuego> xivulon: Check for the function call that fails and causes the tool to exit with status 2.
[01:09] <neol> MrObvious: i have already uninstalled all the firewalls.
[01:09] <ochosi> MrObvious: oh my dear. sometimes it's really easy. sorry for bothering, it's already late and i've had some wine :) thanks anyway!
[01:09] <kitche> !iptables | MrObvious
[01:09] <ubotu> MrObvious: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[01:09] <Downix> ok, got it
[01:09] <xivulon> cafuego: it's open("/dev/console", O_RDWR)            = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
[01:09] <mariocesar_bo> Hi all, how can I know the IP of the PC's connected to my network from the command line?
[01:09] <poul|raider> btw, is it totaly stupid of me to ect have a game on a window disk and run it directly from it without copying it over on the linux drive?
[01:09] <MrObvious> kitche: I know Ubuntu can DO iptables, but it's not enabled by default.
[01:10] <xivulon> cafuego: that sounds normal since permission is 600
[01:10] <massimo_> can I restart?
[01:10] <bruenig> MrObvious, kind of is
[01:10] <kitche> MrObvious, sure it is it's just has no rules
[01:10] <Noah0504> Without installing every gstreamer package under the sun, I need an easy way to encode and read either AAC or MP3.  MP3 will do just fine.
[01:10] <neol> MrObvious: dont deviate from the topic. come back.
[01:10] <cafuego> xivulon: Hmmm.
[01:10] <jplove71> neol, You lost me on that.  I don't have a /.themes folder in my home directory.
[01:10] <MrObvious> neol: Hmm. Can you just use Azuerus then?
[01:10] <cafuego> xivulon: Mine does the same, but still returns 0.
[01:10] <massimo_> wich is the topic?
[01:10] <xivulon> cafuego: how can you open the file r/w?
[01:10] <neol> jplove71: click on show hidden files and folders. :P
[01:10] <MeRodent> jplove71, /. folders are hidden.
[01:10] <Jimmey> poul|raider, depends upon the game
[01:10] <cafuego> xivulon: I can't.
[01:10] <MrObvious> jplove71: Open a terminal and type cd ~/.themes and if it's not there it's hidden.
[01:11] <MrObvious> jplove71: Open a terminal and type cd ~/.themes and if it's not there it's not made. It's a hidden folder *
[01:11] <logan> I installed compiz but when I go to config it, it says it isn't running. How do I make it run?
[01:11] <xivulon> cafuego: what does strace show?
[01:11] <jplove71> neol, nvm, I found it.  It's just .themes
[01:11] <MrObvious> !effects | logan
[01:11] <cafuego> open("/dev/console", O_RDWR)            = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
[01:11] <ubotu> logan: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[01:11] <Downix> trying to back up my 120GB HD onto a 60GB external... this is going to get ugly....
[01:11] <cafuego> exit_group(2)
[01:11] <poul|raider> Jimmey, thinking of wow here as i most licky wont stop useing windows totaly, so would be nice to just run it from the same folder
[01:11] <zerwas> is it possible to have an automated command to remove the "nvidia" in xorg.conf and set it to "nv"?
[01:11] <cafuego> But echo $? still shows 0.
[01:11] <neol> MrObvious: but i get good speed on utorrent in windows than in azureus in linux, so i wanna use utorrent dude.
[01:12] <crabgrass> alright guys, about to begin installing xfce/ubuntu on a headless box to use as a backup platform. any reccomendations on a filesystem for backups? reiser? ext3?
[01:12] <MrObvious> neol: Hmm. I understand.
[01:12] <xivulon> cafuego: ???
[01:12] <cafuego> xivulon: Mind you, I'm not supposed to be able to write to /dev/console a snormal user.
[01:12] <mccool> hi guys if anyone can help me with this i will be really greatfull, my keyboard has just stoped working in xorg but yet it works fine at the gdm and in a virtual console, is there a key combination that disables the keyboard that i may have accidently pressed?
[01:12] <bruenig> zerwas, a clean swap with nothing else is just sed 's/nvidia/nv//'
[01:12] <Jimmey> poul|raider, try http://appdb.winehq.org
[01:12] <MrObvious> neol: Maybe you should work on it later after you get some sleep.
[01:12] <Downix> WinXP/2k dual-boot HD went loco
[01:12] <neol> MrObvious: LOL
[01:12] <zerwas> bruenig, ok, looks easy. but how would the whole command look like?
[01:12] <Downix> turns out XP damaged it's own filesystem
[01:12] <MrObvious> neol: Besides I think my family is here. I g2g again :\
[01:12] <ugarit> I want a particular script to run when a user logs in and another one when they logout, they're using bash, how do I do that?
[01:12] <xivulon> cafuego: codes is: fd = open("/dev/console", O_RDWR); DIEIF((fd < 1));
[01:12] <bruenig> zerwas, sed 's/nvidia/nv//' -i /etc/xorg.conf
[01:12] <neol> MrObvious: runnning away :P
[01:13] <bruenig> zerwas, sed 's/nvidia/nv/' -i /etc/xorg.conf
[01:13] <zerwas> bruenig, ah, -i...thank you very much bruenig!
[01:13] <zerwas> bruenig, :-))
[01:13] <neol> MrObvious: bye i'm 2 going to sleep now. :)
[01:13] <poul|raider> Jimmey, think you missunderstood me, its not about if its posible. just if linux read/write from a windows disk as fast as from the filsystem linux use itself?
[01:14] <bruenig> poul|raider, test it with hdparm
[01:14] <poul|raider> bruenig, ye might do that. gotta get ubuntu installed first. dling the disk atm :)
[01:14] <Scorpus> Hi
[01:14] <nj786> is there photoshop for ubuntu?
[01:14] <Downix> poul|raider: I find Linux to have between a 10-15% speed edge over WinXP on the same disk, 35-45% faster over Vista
[01:15] <bruenig> nj786, no
[01:15] <PriceChild> nj786, the gimp
[01:15] <Downix> nj786: ever tried The Gimp?
[01:15] <nj786> Downix: yea it sucks
[01:15] <neramos> hey, when i try to save the files to this location i get "Permission denied" although i did this "sudo iptables-save > /etc/iptables.up.rules" ; any ideas ???
[01:15] <bruenig> Downix, I don't think you quite understand what poul|raider is asking
[01:15] <nerdboy1024> MrObvious, thanks, for the info, but i am having a problem Error: Can't open display:
[01:15] <poul|raider> Downix, i am not compairing, just talking about reading from a window ntsf disk from linux
[01:15] <nj786> Downix: can you download photoshop?
[01:15] <Downix> bruenig: quite possible
[01:15] <MeRodent> ugarit, check the /etc/bash.bashrc file
[01:15] <Downix> nj786:  never tried
[01:16] <poul|raider> *giggle* dont even remember if its ntsf its called :D
[01:16] <nj786> PriceChild: can you download photoshop?
[01:16] <Downix> poul|raider: I'm doing it right now, backing up my NTFS system
[01:16] <mccool> hi guys does anybody know if there is a keyboard shortcut to disable the keys under Xorg
[01:16] <PriceChild> nj786, you must pay
[01:16] <poul|raider> oki, Downix
[01:16] <nj786> PriceChild: pay?
[01:16] <kitche> nj786, adobe photoshop it big money also
[01:16] <PriceChild> nj786, its commercial software? You have to pay for a license?
[01:16] <jrib> mccool: disable what keys?
[01:16] <nj786> PriceChild: what if you have a cd? how do you get it to wotk
[01:16] <nj786> work
[01:16] <Downix> poul|raider: My 2k/XP install is doing badly, so I'm backing up my key files to an external before I blow it away
[01:16] <PriceChild> nj786, maybe wine
[01:16] <mccool> jrib, yeah key presses so the keyboard does not work
[01:17] <nj786> PriceChild: alright
[01:17] <poul|raider> Downix, oki
[01:17] <kitche> PriceChild, nj786 from what I understand CS does not work in wine
[01:17] <Anlar> nj786: winehq.com/appdb, but only ANCIENT versions work with wine
[01:17] <jrib> mccool: oh I see, interesting question, but I don't know the answer
[01:17] <neramos> anyone pleaase
[01:17] <nj786> kitche: ahh that blows...
[01:17] <neramos> hey, when i try to save the files to this location i get "Permission denied" although i did this "sudo iptables-save > /etc/iptables.up.rules" ; any ideas ???
[01:17] <poul|raider> Anyone know if the beryl/compiz thing got the frame capture module as beryl had in version 3.0?
[01:17] <Downix> poul|raider: Earlier today I was using VPN to dump the whole compressed archive to a remote system as well.
[01:17] <poul|raider> :)
[01:17] <mccool> jrib, its just i think i may have pressed it as my keyboard has stoped working under Xorg
[01:18] <Downix> poul|raider: so, I'd say Linux handles NTFS just file
[01:18] <jrib> mccool: oh, can you still click and open menus with the mouse?
[01:18] <mccool> jrib, yep
[01:18] <xivulon> cafuego: any idea? I checked the code, it should return 2 if open-rw fails. Whith what permissions do you run check-foreground-console?
[01:18] <mccool> jrib, just cant type anything
[01:18] <jrib> mccool: I would just reboot then
[01:18] <poul|raider> oki, only problem with my wow would be then that the config.wtf is diff from windows to linux
[01:18] <mccool> jrib, i have it just the same when i come back on it
[01:19] <nerdboy1024> caughemulephotoshot+activation+crackcaugh
[01:19] <Downix> poul|raider: you'd need wine, but otherwise it's pretty straight forward.  To simplify things, I might recomment Cedega.
[01:19] <mccool> jrib,  do you know of anyway to reset xorg or to clear out the session?
[01:20] <Downix> poul|raider: I'm a CoH fan over WoW tho
[01:20] <poul|raider> ye ye, i have been running wow before n
[01:20] <jrib> mccool: hmm, have you seen if your keyboard works on another OS or livecd?
[01:20] <mccool> jrib, to see if that helps
[01:20] <poul|raider> tho
[01:20] <poul|raider> but i had it 2 places, one for linux one for windows.
[01:20] <nj786> nerdboy1024: u there>
[01:20] <poul|raider> so would be nice if i just could run it from the same location
[01:20] <Downix> poul|raider: That's always safer.
[01:20] <poul|raider> just changing the wtf file depending on what os i am on
[01:21] <mccool> jrib, yeah im on windows at the moment, and it works find under a virtual console.  Its been working fine for several months as well under linux but I was pressing a few buttons today lol, and now its stoped working :-(
[01:21] <poul|raider> but well, would be nice if creative released the x-fi drivers
[01:21] <jrib> mccool: does it work at the login screen for ubuntu?
[01:21] <ugarit> besides the fuse group what other group must the standard user be in to be able to mount via sshfs, i get permission denied?
[01:21] <mccool> jrib, yep
[01:21] <jrib> mccool: ah, and with a new user you create?
[01:22] <mccool> jrib, how do you mean
[01:22] <Esteth> is there a torrent client for linux/ubuntu that allows me to select only particular files from it to download? currently using uTorrent under wine, which works, but is winey.
[01:22] <xivulon> Does anyone get 2 when running: check-foreground-console;echo $?
[01:23] <jrib> mccool: try creating a new user (ctrl-alt-f1 to get to the terminal, 'sudo adduser testuser', alt-f7 to get back to the login screen in X), login with "testuser" and see if the keyboard works then.  If it does, it means it's a user configuration issue
[01:23] <jrib> Esteth: azureus has that feature I *think*
[01:23] <mccool> ok il try that out and see if that works
[01:24] <Downix> now, if I could only get samba to cooperate
[01:24] <mccool> jrib, if it is a user configuration thing is it easy to fix
[01:24] <jrib> mccool: well, it means it's probably some .file in your HOME, we just have to find it
[01:25] <mccool> jrib, thanks for your help i apreciate it
[01:25] <erlinux> does firefox/sunbird/thunderbird share libraries???
[01:25] <mccool> jrib, ill give it a go now
[01:25] <erlinux> cuz i run all of them
[01:25] <jrib> mccool: np, come back afterwards
[01:25] <Esteth> jrib: thanks :)
[01:25] <mccool> jrib, sure ill let you know how i got on
[01:25] <mccool> jrib, speak to you in a bit
[01:26] <xivulon> is /bin/check-foreground-console supposed to be setuid?
[01:26] <ugarit> which initilization file is used when a user logs in via GNOME?  I want to run a particular script as login and logout.
[01:26] <Erich85> Hi all.  I'm trying to use Compiz-Fusion, but when I try to pull up the settings manager, it's a no go.  Nothing happens.  I had Beryl before this without a problem.
[01:26] <PriceChild> !startup | ugarit
[01:26] <ubotu> ugarit: 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
[01:26] <d4rkmonkey> Erich85 what settings manager?
[01:26] <PriceChild> !effects | Erich85
[01:26] <ubotu> Erich85: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[01:27] <bruce__> #GAYTH
[01:27] <Erich85> d4rkmonkey: Compiz-Fusion's, which is accessible either by system->preferences, or by right clicking on the tray icon.  To configure which effects are visible.
[01:28] <d4rkmonkey> Erich85 are you talking about the Compiz Config Settings Manager, or system>preferences>desktop effects ?
[01:28] <ugarit> ubotu: what about at logout?
[01:28] <Erich85> d4rkmonkey: The former
[01:29] <xivulon> what are the permissions of /bin/check-foreground-console in your case?
[01:29] <kahrytan> Hello
[01:29] <d4rkmonkey> Erich85 have you tried reinstalling ccsm?
[01:30] <mcoolio> jrib, the keyboard is working fine under a dummy account
[01:30] <mcoolio> jrib, so as you said it must be a user configrationg thing
[01:30] <Erich85> d4rkmonkey: What is ccsm?
[01:30] <xivulon> cafuego: what are your permissions for check-foreground-console?
[01:31] <zezom> I'm running synergy and I would like it to start when the login screen appears. is there a way to do this?
[01:31] <iliketofrolic> how do i reinstall grub after installing XP?
[01:31] <simplechat> put your ubuntu disk back in?
[01:31] <d4rkmonkey> Erich85 short form for compiz config settings manager, I don't feel like typing the whole world, package name is compiz-config-settings-manager I believe
[01:31] <jrib> mcoolio: ok, I would start renaming .FILE to .FILE.backup for the other user and seeing if you can narrow it down.  I'd start with renaming ~/.config, ~/.gnome*, and ~/.gconf .  Then try the account again.  You get the idea?
[01:31] <Menth> !grub
[01:31] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto

[01:32] <timewriter> hi
[01:32] <timewriter> how much swap space i need for Feisty ?
[01:32] <mcoolio> jrib, yeah thats a good idea
[01:32] <Downix> I use 4GB for mine
[01:32] <timewriter> hm
[01:33] <timewriter> i have 2 Gb of ram
[01:33] <Downix> but I go by the rule, twice as much swap as you have RAM
[01:33] <mcoolio> jrib, thanks for you help
[01:33] <jrib> mcoolio: np
[01:33] <timewriter> so the rule is still on charge
[01:33] <mcoolio> jrib, i might be out for a little while lol
[01:33] <timewriter> ok
[01:33] <timewriter> thanks
[01:34] <kitche> Downix, man that rules is no good anymore
[01:34] <Downix> kitche: I've been running since slack 3.0
[01:35] <fivetwentysix_> I have a question, when I look at a darker image, say a black picture, my screen darkens, how do I prevent this from happening?
[01:36] <Erich85> Here's a question.  Recently I noticed that when I boot Ubuntu, from turning on my computer, I get a black screen after the Ubuntu graphic loads.  The only way to avoid this is to dick around in recovery mode for a bit, login, then type exit twice, to boot the GUI.
[01:38] <xivulon> I have a problem: check-foreground-console returns 2 and that block gnome-power-manager. Any idea how to fix that?
[01:38] <Jimmey> I have a 7.1 capable sound card - If I plug some speakers into one of the other jacks on the card, should that work? Or do they all need to be plugged into one woofer
[01:40] <etale> hi all: audio has seemed to stop working for video in mozilla.... this seemed to happen when i was loading several clips from cnn at once.  youtube has no audio now as well... even after restarting the computer. any hints?
[01:40] <rockets> Is there any way to repair a bad superblock?
[01:41] <rockets> I get a magic number wrong error
[01:41] <scipio> is there any tag editor for audio files (mp3/flac etc) the can tag them with minimum work? maybe one that is able to look up information on the internet?
[01:42] <fivetwentysix_> Uhh
[01:42] <fivetwentysix_> I can't remove this program
[01:42] <fivetwentysix_> That i installed accidently in synaptic package manager

[01:49] <bruenig> mauri, stop
[01:49] <Lo_Pan> maybe if you ask a few more times
[01:49] <Lo_Pan> someone will respond
[01:49] <sammy> does anyone know of any issues installing from the minimalcd vs the full iso?
[01:49] <robsta> is there a packet for (x)ubuntu equal to superkaramba ?
[01:49] <azt> anybody know which could be the deal with this problem?
[01:50] <bruenig> stop saying packet
[01:50] <d4rkmonkey> !superkaramba
[01:50] <ubotu> superkaramba is an application that gives you interactive eye-candy on your desktop. To get themes for it, head over to http://kde-look.org
[01:50] <robsta> isnt it for kde only?
[01:50] <bruenig> robsta, you can use superkaramba on anything
[01:50] <fivetwentysix> What's the shell command for deleting a directory?

[01:50] <robsta> ahhhh thank you bruenig
[01:50] <fivetwentysix> thanks
[01:51] <Esteth> what internet browser (shell based) is the reccomended one ?
[01:52] <bruenig> !best | Esteth
[01:52] <ubotu> Esteth: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[01:52] <glenn> why does ubuntu see my PSP's memorcy card at 160mb free when ther is 1200mb freE?
[01:52] <mauri>  <bruenig> tell me
[01:52] <mauri>  <bruenig> tell me i don't understand stop
[01:52] <bruenig> !attitude | mauri
[01:52] <ubotu> mauri: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[01:53] <Esteth> bruenig: i never said "best", but "reccomended". Much as Firefox and gedit are "reccomended"
[01:53] <bruenig> I don't recommend gedit
[01:53] <Pelo> glenn, I get something similar with my mp3 player,  think it's bacause of the way that kind of memory is formated
[01:53] <MeRodent> glenn, most consoles measure mb whereas ubuntu is probably measureing mB
[01:53] <mauri>  <bruenig> i don't know how to use irc
[01:53] <glenn> how do we fix?
[01:53] <glenn> I mean I have to be able to get on it?

[02:07] <Flannel> sidu: You'll want to add the security repository.  And maybe feisty-updates too.  It's probably easiest to regenerate your sources.list,
[02:07] <Flannel> !easysource | sidu

[02:08] <astro76> mauri, they might be able to better answer in #kubuntu too
[02:08] <Flannel> sidu: oh, I see you have updates.  but you'll want security too
[02:08] <super-6-1> iut picks up any sound made
[02:08] <mauri> orionr thanks i will try
[02:08] <Jimmey> I have a 7.1 capable sound card - If I plug some speakers into one of the other jacks on the card, should that work? Or do they all need to be plugged into one woofer?
[02:08] <Gm4n> what command-line partitioner does ubuntu use?
[02:09] <Gm4n> erm, correction, text based
[02:09] <sidu> Flannel: i was using optus source -- can not get my php5-gd -- so i just updated my source to iinet -- no good ? i m dummy - no idea what source means
[02:09] <bruenig> Gm4n, use whichever one you want
[02:09] <Flannel> !repository | sidu
[02:09] <ubotu> sidu: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource

[02:10] <bruenig> Gm4n, haven't memorized the steps, are you on graphical?
[02:10] <Szego> Does anyone know if any version of ubuntu server supports a PowerPC G4 processor?
[02:10] <Flannel> Szego: Edgy does officially.  Dapper does too.  Feisty does unofficially

[02:11] <Gm4n> bruenig: no, text-based
[02:11] <bruenig> Gm4n, probably parted
[02:11] <Flannel> Gm4n: Might be easier to just ask specific questions here.  What you need help with?
[02:11] <mauri> hi all, I've a problem with my webcam....someone can help me please?
[02:11] <Szego> I just wanted to setup something at home for me to SSH into, do you think Feisty is a wise choice?
[02:11] <Gm4n> Flannel & bruenig: the goal is to make a macbook dual-boot fiesty
[02:11] <sidu> Flannel: a bit reading ..
[02:11] <octoberdan> Why wouldn't sudo follow a symbolic link that is followed when I run the command without sudo? http://pastebin.ca/686454
[02:12] <Gm4n> so I'm trying to delete the "windows" partition created by boot camp (apple's partitioner), and replace it with an ext3 and a swap partition
[02:12] <sidu> Flannel: australia got 3 sources, my office pc use pacific -- and it damaged my mysql db -- so i m not going to use it again
[02:12] <octoberdan> "/opt/jruby" is a symbolic link to /opt/jrub.version
[02:12] <rockets> What advantage is there to using UUIDs when I don't have a lot of disks, like on a laptop for example
[02:12] <Flannel> sidu: All repositories have the same files
[02:13] <sidu> Flannel: shall i change to optus again? it took a while to update again :(
[02:14] <PiRoMaNo> MrObvious You here?
[02:14] <Flannel> sidu: you don't need to change at all.  Use whatever works.  And actually, you can just copy your first two lines from the paste, change the feisty to feisty-security, and be done with it.
[02:14] <nme> ok, well i got my sound working.. For some reason it switched Sound cards on me...
[02:15] <nme> Next question!
[02:15] <PiRoMaNo> Do i need an Antivirus on Linux?

[02:45] <nathan> this is weird, i extracted some icons I downloaded but when I click on the icon and try to change it, they don't show up in there
[02:45] <Pelo> DeadLock,  you do realise this will wipe it clean right ?
[02:45] <vocx> evri2|purepwnage, are you running the 64 bit version of Ubuntu?
[02:46] <MrObvious> DeadLock: Do you need to back up data?
[02:46] <evri2|purepwnage> vocx: 32
[02:46] <Pelo> DeadLock,  you'll have to delete your ntfs partiton and make a ext3 partiton in the empty space ,  man parted for the various commands
[02:47] <Gaming1> Pelo: well, I use thunderbird in windows so, if I am in XP and want to read my mail in evolution....
[02:47] <baktaah> Anyone that got a 8600m card, and that has managed to get it to work in 3d?
[02:47] <vocx> evri2|purepwnage, K8 then. Although I'm not sure what apt-build does?

[02:58] <wolferine> hmm, how can I check the root password, not the sudo password ?
[02:59] <Pelo> sasimon19,  what does supergrub have to do with a storage partiton ?
[02:59] <MrObvious> ubuntu09: Odd.
[02:59] <MrObvious> wolferine: You can reset it with sudo passwd root I think.
[02:59] <ubuntu09> mrobvious is thet because my isp only has me down for 1 compter
[02:59] <heatxsink> anyone around that has installed ubuntu on a PPC?
[02:59] <wolferine> guess I would have to reset, as it would be encrypted
[02:59] <MrObvious> Pelo: I think they lost their MBR.
[02:59] <sasimon19> MrObvious, I reinstalled my mbr.. it was at the beginning of the partition that I accidentally installed grub on a non-bootable drive
[02:59] <CountX> MrObvious, how do i add the ro, read only, oprtion to the fstab line?
[02:59] <MrObvious> ubuntu09: I don't think so. What IP does the active computer get? What's the first number?
[02:59] <sasimon19> Pelo, I used it to replace the mbr after vista skrewed it up (I knew the problem was coming)
[03:00] <MrObvious> CountX: Google is what I'd suggest lol.
[03:00] <wolferine> thanks Obvious
[03:00] <Pelo> MrObvious, it's not a boot partition , shouldn'T matter
[03:00] <ubuntu09> 68
[03:00] <sasimon19> Pelo, but then I skrewed up when I installed a partition
[03:00] <MrObvious> Pelo: Oh well :p.
[03:00] <sasimon19> Pelo, not partition... a boot thing to a partition
[03:00] <MrObvious> ubuntu09: You aren't getting NAT working right then.
[03:00] <Pelo> sasimon19, i still think ppl in ##windows would be better equiped to tell you how to recover a ntfs partition
[03:00] <sasimon19> did you look at the screen shot?
[03:01] <MrObvious> ubuntu09: You'll need to buy a NAT capable router.
[03:01] <ubuntu09> NAT?
[03:01] <sasimon19> alrite I'll try
[03:01] <sasimon19> thanx though
[03:01] <Pelo> sasimon19,  I thought the problem was that you coudln't mount it to recover the data
[03:01] <MrObvious> ubuntu09: Yeah. Your IP range needs to start with 10, 172.16, or 192.168
[03:01] <vocx> !root > wolferine
[03:01] <wolferine> sweet
[03:01] <CountX> MrObvious, i cant find anything
[03:01] <wolferine> vocx, that was unnecessary :)
[03:01] <MrObvious> CountX: Try googling ntfs fstab
[03:01] <ubuntu09> mine is a linsys 5 port
[03:01] <Pelo> !ntfs-3g | CountX
[03:01] <ubotu> CountX: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:02] <MrObvious> ubuntu09: It's probably a switch.
[03:02] <CountX> i went there
[03:02] <CountX> no luck
[03:02] <CountX> tells me my drives are currups
[03:02] <Pelo> CountX,  jst install ntfs-3g,  andt the -config package and then run the config applet from applications > system tools
[03:02] <ubuntu09> mrobvious i remember my xp showed me 192 as ip
[03:03] <ubuntu09> before the router
[03:03] <MrObvious> CountX: There is a way to force it to mount with 3g if "corrupted" and you know for sure it's not especially if you just had an unclean shutdown.
[03:03] <sasimon19> CountX, thats why I said to see what windows does with it first if you can
[03:03] <tigran> Hi. Has anyone here set up code::blocks successfully/
[03:03] <winbond> Tigge, whats that
[03:03] <MrObvious> ubuntu09: Hmm. I can't say I guess. The IP address you have now is a 68.x.y.z number right?
[03:04] <wolferine> you may be suprised, but at some point in a person's life of Ubuntu, they may require a root password
[03:04] <winbond> tigran, whats that
[03:04] <ubuntu09> yes mr o
[03:04] <tigran> winbond: a compiler
[03:04] <bruenig> wolferine, shhhh, they will find you and kill you for mentioning that
[03:04] <tigran> winbond: well an IDe
[03:04] <tigran> http://www.codeblocks.org/
[03:04] <wolferine> bruenig, ignorance is bliss?
[03:04] <ubuntu09> mrobvious do i need special software?. the router didnt have any
[03:04] <wolferine> :)
[03:05] <winbond> Tigge, ok, just curious, dont know anything about it though
[03:05] <MrObvious> ubuntu09: What is your default gateway? Is it a 192 or a 68?
[03:05] <ubuntu09> 68
[03:05] <tigran> winbond: i get this message codeblocks: error while loading shared libraries: libwx_gtk2u_aui-2.8.so.0: cannot open shared object file:
[03:05] <bruenig> code blocks is ugly as hell
[03:05] <winbond> tigran, , ok, just curious, dont know anything about it though
[03:05] <CountX> i played with ntfs-3g and got it with -o ro
[03:05] <tigran> ok
[03:05] <MrObvious> ubuntu09: I'd try buying a new router myself. My recommendation would be a LInksys WRT54G and modding it to DD-WRT.
[03:05] <winbond> tigran, sry
[03:05] <MrObvious> CountX: Good.

[03:09] <joshritger> MrObious: does what work, windows loads fine
[03:10] <ubuntu09> actually i though i did buy a router. i didnt notice it said hub on the box lol
[03:10] <MrObvious> joshritger: Winblows. If it didn't then I would suspect hardware.

[03:13] <MrObvious> BlankDenim: GRRRRRRRRR! You bad person. You'll get banned just for that.

[03:16] <monknight> can anyone give me some help with my sound card its a realtek ixp sb400?
[03:16] <MrObvious> oxeimo1: apt-get comes from Debian. Synaptic is a GUI. Aptitude is an  update from apt-get I guess.

[03:16] <vocx> oxeimo1, read their manual pages "man aptitude", they are frontends to apt-get

[03:17] <nameless> someone knows how to setup a mic on ubuntu ?

[03:17] <goose> is there a plugin for Rythembox that lets you play protected m4p files?
[03:17] <Pelo> nameless,  in the terminal,  type alsamixer,   select capture , make sure that the sliders are up and not muted
[03:17] <ce^> net
[03:18] <nickrud> DeadLock: you need to unmount the ntfs partition first; and since you're doing system maintenance, you'll need sudo
[03:18] <MrObvious> goose: You mean like ones off of itunes or something?
[03:18] <eyec0n> goose, I dunno if that would be legal. there might be software to strip the drm
[03:18] <DeadLock> it's not mounted
[03:18] <DeadLock> It hasnt been mounted. It's not in my fstab or anything.
[03:18] <goose> MrObvious, yes. I made the mistake of buying some itunes music files and now I can't play them on ubuntu
[03:18] <WaxyFresh> MrObvious: fglrx^
[03:19] <Flannel> goose: You can de-DRM them if you have OSX or windows and itunes.  Then you'll have them.  Check out Hymn (its on sourceforge, I believe)
[03:19] <MrObvious> goose: You'll need to find a way to remove DRM. I'd rather not get involved in that for legal reasons.
[03:19] <MrObvious> /ban Flannel
[03:19] <TooNamI> goose: there is a program in mac and windows that removes the drm (gulp might have to use wine)
[03:19] <MrObvious> lol
[03:19] <nickrud> DeadLock: how about putting the output of      sudo fdisk -l     on a pastebin, I'll help you identify the options for cfdisk

[03:20] <nameless> this
[03:20] <goose> Flannel or TooNamI, what's the name of the program? and does it have to run on windows?
[03:20] <Pelo> nameless, yeah, ok , in ventrilo make usre youhve the correct sound device selected,
[03:20] <Pelo> nameless,  try them out one by one if you have to
[03:20] <TooNamI> i use one on my mac --- i dont remmber the name of the windows one -- its freeware though
[03:20] <MrObvious> goose: I guess I can say this. You could always burn an audio CD and rip it to mp3 or some other format.
[03:20] <DeadLock> nickrud: Here you go. http://pastebin.com/m3e381d7f
[03:20] <Pelo> and nameless  make sure the mic is plugged in the correct socket ,
[03:21] <nameless> ok
[03:21] <MrObvious> /ban MrObvious
[03:21] <Pelo> nameless, also it might be a good idea to test the mic in sound recorder or something to make sure it actualy works
[03:21] <eyec0n> heh
[03:21] <Shadow6363> hmm, whats a good program to design websites with or whats  a good channel to discuss said question in?
[03:21] <Pelo> MrObvious,  I can have someone take care of that for you if you want to
[03:22] <MrObvious> Pelo: Lol no ty.
[03:22] <nickrud> DeadLock: so, obviously sdc :)      sudo cfdisk /dev/sdc  ;  and in the screen, change the filetype to linux
[03:22] <vocx> MrObvious, although you are providing good advices, I feel you also talk too much.
[03:22] <dbe> Any suggestions how to make software based psyschedelic audio synth free?
[03:22] <eyec0n> goose, you could always just redownload with Azureus or gtk-gnutella
[03:22] <monknight> I'm new to ubuntu and installed 7.04, having problems with my sound card its an intergrated any tips?
[03:22] <goose> eyec0n, I'd prefer to stay away from p2p
[03:22] <eyec0n> sissy
[03:22] <dbe> Is SuperCollider a good choice?
[03:22] <TooNamI> goose   have u tried to covert the songs in itunes ?
[03:22] <DeadLock> omg im a moron
[03:22] <Xero> itunes are lose.
[03:23] <DeadLock> i was doing sdc1
[03:23] <DeadLock> >.<
[03:23] <goose> TooNamI, it refuses to convert them
[03:23] <nameless> Pelo, the sound recorder doesn't record anything
[03:23] <nameless> :(
[03:23] <nickrud> DeadLock: yeah, it's the disk, not the partition ;)

[03:23] <Flannel> goose: Hymn
[03:23] <goose> Hymn?
[03:23] <goose> ok, thanks!
[03:23] <jplove71> Pelo, $43US/month
[03:23] <Pelo> nameless, I would give the forum a  search for how to
[03:23] <eyec0n> dude, looks like your out .99 cents for all those itunes songs
[03:23] <TooNamI> lol yep thats the one
[03:23] <DeadLock> Omg ic an't believe it was that simple.
[03:24] <TooNamI> i couldnt remmber the name of that program
[03:24] <Xero> is there anything that removes DRM?
[03:24] <Veinor> QTFairUse
[03:24] <dbe> jplove71: Ovo-pumpuisms = 500$/month
[03:24] <jplove71> dbe, Huh?
[03:24] <TooNamI> anyone have any ideas how to reset a program in ubuntu ?
[03:24] <sasimon19> #effects is gone where do I go for beryl help?
[03:24] <dbe> jplove71: Just comparing it with the vaule of my diet calculator.
[03:24] <Veinor> toonami: define reset. do you mean close?
[03:24] <nickrud> DeadLock: ok, now you need to put the ext3 filesystem on the partition ;   sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdc1
[03:25] <Pelo> jplove71,  that actualy sounds like a good deal,  but i would  probably go with a slower speed and a lower bill myself ,  I'M just cheap
[03:25] <TooNamI> Veinor, i enabled the opengl preview in k9copy and now it just crashes... it runs under sudo though
[03:25] <Pelo> sasimon19,  #ubuntu-effects  #beryl #compiz-fusion
[03:25] <Xero> #compiz-fusion
[03:25] <DeadLock> nickrud it tells me 'No primary partitions are marked bootable. DOS MBR cannots boot this. Toggles bootable flag of the current partition'
[03:25] <Xero> Doh. Forgot the /join
[03:25] <Xero> Sorry.
[03:25] <TooNamI> I want to reset the application but apt-get remove and the reinstalling it seems to be leaving a config file or something
[03:25] <jplove71> Pelo, Well, here's the thing.  I have the 6mb download plan.  The 22mb you see is a bonus from the ISP called Blast.
[03:26] <Veinor> toonami: oh, reset all the settings.
[03:26] <Pelo> jplove71, any limits ?
[03:26] <TooNamI> just for k9copy
[03:26] <nickrud> DeadLock: you'll have a grub mbr, right? And the bootable flag is irrelevant for ext3 and grub, iirc
[03:26] <vocx> TooNamI, "sudo aptitude purge <program>" It purges the configuration files.
[03:26] <jplove71> Pelo, For downloading?  Yea.  It's 150GB/month
[03:26] <Pelo> jplove71, I don't have a limit
[03:26] <Flannel> TooNamI: or with apt-get, the --purge flag.  Or in synaptic, "complete removal"
[03:27] <DeadLock> nickrud: Adding filesystem as we speak. I still can't believe I was messing up with such a simple thing.
[03:27] <jplove71> Pelo, I have yet to download more than 100GB/month
[03:27] <winbond> can someone look at this compiling log of vmmon module and tell me what the problem is ?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36748/

[03:27] <eyec0n> jplove71, damn I could fill my hard-drive up twice a month :p

[03:27] <eyec0n> yeah
[03:28] <Gaming1> Pelo: If I use Thunderbird on both XP and Ubuntu will the mail between these two be synchronised?
[03:28] <eyec0n> the dvd burner helps
[03:28] <TooNamI> Its still crashing --- sudo k9copy is still working but i think its still picking up the opengl option somewhere
[03:28] <andrewL> will anyone help me set up an ftp server
[03:28] <Stevo> hello?
[03:28] <Flannel> !hi | Stevo
[03:28] <ubotu> Stevo: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:28] <monknight> new to ubuntu have 7.04 installed sound cards not working and getting the occasional lock-up
[03:28] <andrewL> will anyone help me set up an ftp server
[03:29] <bruenig> Gaming1, no, you could probably script something on the linux to windows side to sync them, not sure on the windows to linux side
[03:29] <Pelo> Gaming1, I don't know for sure but I am guessing it would be easier to do , you can try asking in #thunderbird
[03:29] <Gaming1> OK and thanks
[03:29] <eyec0n> andrewL, I could but I cant guarentee its saftey in the real world.
[03:29] <oxeimon> is there an easy way to transfer files to the computer that I'm ssh'ing to?
[03:29] <bruenig> oxeimon, scp
[03:30] <DeadLock> nickrud: thanks alot.
[03:30] <Stevo> has anyone successfully ran wireless internet with a linksys card and router under Feisty?
[03:30] <nickrud> DeadLock: yw
[03:30] <zaius> i really like scp syntax, it makes sense
[03:30] <vocx> andrewL, there is a whole subforum on servers and security in ubuntuforums.org I'd go check there.
[03:30] <nocaps> Hi everyone, does anyone knows if making a: dd if=boot.bin bs=512 of=/dev/fd0 | will ruin the fat12 file system? thanks a lot
[03:31] <nameless> anyone use ventilo here ?
[03:31] <nameless> :|
[03:31] <andrewL> okay thanks
[03:31] <DeadLock> nameless: yes
[03:31] <vocx> Stevo, surely. But it is not the Linksys card. But the "chipset" in it that gives information. Check ubuntuforums.org in the wireless section.
[03:31] <wolferine> wasnt there a .deb for pidgin on their site?

[03:32] <Pelo> wolferine,  on get-deb.com I think
[03:32] <Stevo> vocx> thanks.
[03:32] <nameless> DeadLock: could u learn me howto get the mic working on ventrilo ?

[03:32] <wolferine> its onto at that URL
[03:32] <TooNamI> is there a cmd to purge all the dependencies for a package ?
[03:32] <Pelo> actualy  http://www.getdeb.net/
[03:33] <nickrud> nocaps: that will write a bit for bit copy of boot.bin to the floppy, erasing anything that was there
[03:33] <zaius> the traffic on this channel is impossible to keep up with
[03:33] <wolferine> thanks Pelo
[03:33] <nichos> hi all - when I have banshee open (even paused) i don't get any sound from uneal 2004. Is there a way to make this work?
[03:33] <nocaps> nickrud: oh so that's the problem, then how do I copy only the first 512 bytes
[03:33] <Pelo> zaius, that is why we put the names ofthe ppl we talk to in each line
[03:33] <Stevo> i really don't see a helluva lot of traffic here.
[03:34] <vocx> TooNamI, normally aptitude and apt-get get rid of dependencies. However you can "aptitude show <package>" list the dependencies and try to remove them manually.
[03:34] <nickrud> nocaps: you're trying to write from, or to the disk?
[03:34] <Xero> Porno.
[03:34] <Moniker43> hey, my edgy install cd is stuck on 64%, any idea why that is?
[03:34] <eyec0n> xchat is feature packed enough to highlight the persons name if they put your name first :)
[03:34] <_johnjosephbachi> is `aptitude upgrade` conservative about downloading kernels? (or more generally-- requiring a reboot)
[03:35] <nocaps> nickrud: I'm trying to copy boot.bin to the floppy
[03:35] <eyec0n> Moniker, its corrupt?
[03:35] <Pelo> Moniker43, try installing with the alternate isntall cd , it usaly easier on the comp

[03:35] <Pelo> the name can be anywhere in the line eyec0n

[03:36] <ubotu> WaxyFresh: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[03:36] <eyec0n> thats handy
[03:36] <nickrud> nocaps: add the option count=1 to what you have (1 block of 512 bytes)
[03:36] <DeadLock> nameless: Can you see my posts in whisper?
[03:36] <zaius> Pelo: i find more technical questions get lost quickly
[03:36] <nocaps> nickrud: ok let me try, thanks a lot!
[03:36] <Pelo> eyec0n,  it allows for better grammar and also lets you know if ppl are talking about you instead of just to you
[03:37] <eyec0n> hah
[03:37] <Pelo> zaius, they do ,  which is why brevity is a must
[03:37] <nickrud> TooNamI: you can also try apt-get autoremove
[03:37] <nameless> DeadLock: where ?
[03:37] <nameless> :O
[03:37] <Pelo> later folks
[03:37] <zaius> Pelo: is there a hackers channel, for people working on the code side of things?

[03:38] <nickrud> zaius: #ubuntu-devel or -dev, I forget which
[03:38] <eyec0n> slashzul, get an osx theme :p
[03:38] <xirv> hi all
[03:38] <slashzul> hey thats why I ask....
[03:38] <_johnjosephbachi> can someone offer me help with aptitude?
[03:38] <eyec0n> gnome-look.org or kde-look.org
[03:38] <slashzul> osx theme...
[03:38] <nickrud> _johnjosephbachi: sure
[03:39] <_johnjosephbachi> nickrud: is `aptitude upgrade` conservative about downloading kernels? (or more generally-- requiring a reboot)
[03:39] <TooNamI> slashzul, google: osx gnome theme
[03:39] <TooNamI> there is a detailed step by step for doing osx look including the dock ... use beryl or compiz to enable expose`
[03:39] <zaius> nickrud: thx
[03:40] <nickrud> _johnjosephbachi: it will do the exact same as apt-get would ; if it's a security fix without a base package change, you'll need to reboot. If it's with a base package change, you can reboot to the new kernel when you want.
[03:40] <zippo> can kde be installed only on kubuntu?
[03:40] <zippo> or can it be also installed on ubuntu?
[03:40] <xirv> it can be installed in all ubuntus
[03:40] <mrspinx> I was wondering what update manager to use i have  been using aptitude is synaptic compatible ?
[03:40] <xirv> right?
[03:40] <mtx1> just got a  22" monitor that requires 1680x1250 native resolution, when i have my xorg configured to run at that resolution my monitor is in the bottom left corner and i cant adjust it. but i can adjust it at any lower resolution with no problems? is it a problem with the monitor or  my config?
[03:40] <nickrud> zippo: no, install kubuntu-desktop and choose kubuntu from the session options when you log in
[03:40] <Flannel> zippo: Kubuntu and Ubuntu are the same, just with different default GUIs
[03:40] <Megaqwerty> Does anyone know how to browse bluetooth shares? In Windows it's "My Bluetooth Places" I don't want to have to switch to Windows to get this functionality, so...anyone know?
[03:40] <_johnjosephbachi> nickrud: okay, thanks
[03:40] <_johnjosephbachi> nickrud: will it tell me if i need to reboot?
[03:41] <zippo> so 7.02 of ubuntu is the same as what version of kubuntu?
[03:41] <winbond> can vmware server be installed with apt-get?
[03:41] <nickrud> _johnjosephbachi: not as clearly as the update-manager would; I usually reboot on a kernel change
[03:41] <_johnjosephbachi> ok

[03:42] <ubotu> MaxL: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[03:42] <Flannel> MaxL: The best... protocol?

[03:42] <Megaqwerty> indeed
[03:42] <MaxL> nickrud, gaim messes with my buddy lists
[03:43] <zippo> so 7.02 of ubuntu is the same as what version of kubuntu?

[03:49] <OrTigaS> where?

[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Is there a gui front end for python 2.5 in the repos?
[03:49] <talcite> Flannel: there's no gui
[03:49] <mrspinx> Hey is synaptic the same as ubuntu?
[03:49] <mrspinx> as apt-get imean
[03:49] <Flannel> talcite: fair enough.  /etc/network/interfaces then
[03:50] <Flannel> mrspinx: apt-get is a command line program, Synaptic is a GUI frontend
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> mrspinx: yes and aptitude.
[03:50] <OrTigaS> i cant get you :(
[03:50] <talcite> Flannel: It's not working. I've tried iface dhcp and static

[03:51] <mrspinx> Will apt-get  mess with aptitude?
[03:51] <OrTigaS> now i get... thanks
[03:51] <Megaqwerty> Flannel: nope
[03:52] <Flannel> mrspinx: They all share the same package database.  They all interface the same stuff.
[03:52] <Megaqwerty> Flannel: that's connecting, nothing about browsing.
[03:52] <Flannel> Megaqwerty: Define "browsing"
[03:53] <dbe> Common sense isn't very common
[03:53] <mrspinx> Flannel: I  see updates with synaptic that i don't see with aptitude
[03:53] <Megaqwerty> Flannel: I want to view the files on my phone, when through USB, it would show up as a USB Mass storage Device, in Windows, I can go to "My Bluetooth Places" And browse the phone in the same way.
[03:53] <Megaqwerty> Flannel: I wanted to know how to do the same in Linux
[03:54] <mrspinx> thats why im asking if they conflict

[03:54] <Megaqwerty> Flannel: yeah.

[03:55] <Megaqwerty> ziroday: It only talks about connecting, which I have no problem doing
[03:56] <dbe> Megaqwerty: Linux is not an abbrevarion but a kernel. GNU is an OS.
[03:56] <dbe> Megaqwerty: I don't mean to be rude.
[03:56] <Megaqwerty> dbe: as I said, I truncate it to Linux for brevity, while I know full well the full name

[03:58] <dbe> Megaqwerty: I think you would like the dist.
[03:58] <Chillyboarder> wuts the graphics program for ubuntu
[03:59] <dbe> Megaqwerty: It's approved by FSF.
[03:59] <Chillyboarder> u know how laptops its blurry, forget the program i had found out long ago
[03:59] <Megaqwerty> dbe: I'm sorry, you must be talking to the wrong person. I'm just here for bluetooth support.
[03:59] <sam1338> whats the best way to configure the lvm on my hdd?
[03:59] <Flannel> sam1338: during install?
[03:59] <dbe> Megaqwerty: sorryo then, I'm very software political.
[03:59] <sam1338> Flannel after install
[03:59] <dbe> sorry*
[03:59] <Chillyboarder> wuts the graphics program for ubuntu
[04:00] <scratch_> Chillyboarder: Gimp?
[04:00] <Chillyboarder> no
[04:00] <Chillyboarder> what is that tho?
[04:00] <chief> Chillyboarder: you need to be a little more specific
[04:00] <sam1338> Flannel resizing one to make space for an increased size in another to be more specific
[04:00] <Chillyboarder> umm
[04:00] <Megaqwerty> dbe: that's fine, while I love the FSF's philosophy, I'm not against using closed source apps. Even Linus Himself fells the same way.
[04:00] <talcite> hi guys. Under what circumstances would an interface have an IP, subnet and everything else... but not be able to ping websites?
[04:00] <dbe> Megaqwerty: I wrote the Sovix WRS (sv.gnu.org/p/sovix/).
[04:00] <Megaqwerty> Flannel: I'm checking out the file sharing app.
[04:00] <Chillyboarder> when I installed ubuntu last time on my laptop, it was blurry, the size of screen was offset
[04:00] <scratch_> Chillyboarder: (GNU Image Manipulation Program - GIMP)
[04:00] <Chillyboarder> i didn't have a program to configure it
[04:00] <dbe> Megaqwerty: You mean non-free, I see.
[04:00] <Flannel> Megaqwerty: gnome-bluetooth will put Apps > ACcessories > Bluetooth File Sharing in your menu.
[04:01] <Flannel> sam1338: So, you're already installed on LVM then?
[04:01] <sam1338> Flannel correct
[04:01] <Megaqwerty> Flannel: yeah, I ran it, all it does is put an icon in my tray though...unless you can tell me how better to use it.
[04:01] <Chillyboarder> ok thats wut every1 uses sratch_?
[04:01] <sam1338> Flannel just ubuntu on a 200gb hdd
[04:01] <scratch_> Chillyboarder: What are you trying to do with these images, just look at them, or modify them, or...?
[04:01] <Chillyboarder> scratch_: every1 uses GIMP then?
[04:02] <Chillyboarder> not images, my whole desktop screen
[04:02] <Megaqwerty> Chillyboarder: I do, and I love it
[04:02] <wolferine> 'linux-headers-2.6.20-16/ or linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic/' which is the location of the kernel source ?
[04:02] <Chillyboarder> the screen resolution
[04:02] <Flannel> sam1338: ah.  Alright, uh, LVM on ubuntu is the same as LVM anywhere else.  So any LVM tutorial/whatever will help.
[04:02] <joshritger> what programs can i use to test a hd drive to see if it is dead?
[04:02] <scratch_> Chillyboarder: It seems to be a competent program, at what it does.
[04:02] <Chillyboarder> scratch_: I need a program to configure screen resolutions
[04:02] <joshritger> I am booted from a live cd and i have a net connection
[04:02] <Megaqwerty> joshritger: well...badblocks will check for bad blocks on the drive....
[04:02] <Flannel> Megaqwerty: I have no idea.  Ive never used it
[04:03] <gerath> I have some wired stuff happen with ubuntu when i on a web page the screen sometimes fade out then back in any one know of this happening to them
[04:03] <CaptLloyd> joshritger:  dd
[04:03] <scratch_> Chillyboarder: Then GIMP will fail you.
[04:03] <Chillyboarder> lol
[04:03] <dbe> joshritger: df, testdisk, mount.
[04:03] <CaptLloyd> joshritger:  badblocks
[04:03] <Megaqwerty> Flannel: I guess I should check /usr/share/doc then...
[04:03] <Chillyboarder> scratch_: any idea what I need?
[04:03] <joshritger> is badblocks in synaptic?
[04:03] <scratch_> Chillyboarder: If you're running gnome you can go to system>preferences>Screen resolution.
[04:03] <dbe> joshritger: GNU PARTED.
[04:03] <Megaqwerty> joshritger: yeah
[04:04] <dbe> Megaqwerty: What are you trying to do?
[04:04] <Chillyboarder> scratch_: gnome is in the basic ubuntu and what other ones?
[04:04] <Megaqwerty> joshritger: in the e2fsprogs package
[04:04] <Chillyboarder> scratch_: and what ubuntu version would be best to install?
[04:04] <Megaqwerty> dbe: trying to view my phone's filesystem through bluetooth, similar to Windows' "My Bluetooth Places"
[04:04] <dbe> Chillyboarder: gNewSense 1.1 Stable i386.
[04:04] <Chillyboarder> scratch_: and its not just the screen resolution, but the quality, since you ccant get a driver for it.
[04:04] <joshritger> i got a bunch of buffer I/o errors on a hdb1 when i loaded the live cd, would that indicate a bad drive?
[04:05] <mneptok> !info bonnie++ | joshritger

[04:05] <CaptLloyd> joshritger:  you may have a scratched CD
[04:05] <Chillyboarder> ty dbe hopefully will help.
[04:05] <gerath> Is there a way with ubuntu to scan disk or check for bad block on hdd
[04:05] <scratch_> Chillyboarder: The most recent version is nice. Do you have drivers for your video card?
[04:05] <dbe> Megaqwerty: I've never done that, I'm agaisnt the computerstorage law in Europe.
[04:05] <Chillyboarder> I have windows drivers lol?
[04:05] <sk8inrox> Does anyone know how to install beryl or compiz fusion with an ati radeon..i've tried like every tutorial and all I get is no title bars(no minimize etc.) Just paid 130 bucks for a new card and I really want this to work.
[04:06] <Chillyboarder> scratch_: I have windows drivers lol.
[04:06] <Megaqwerty> dbe: okay, I'm unfamiliar with that as I'm in the States
[04:06] <usser> gerath: fsck
[04:06] <dbe> Megaqwerty: Do you know what VeriChip or RFID is?
[04:06] <Megaqwerty> dbe: I know what RFID is
[04:06] <scratch_> Chillyboarder: -eyeshift- Ubuntu has pretty good driver support. Gnome is the default window manager with it and has a graphical means to adjust your resolution.
[04:07] <dbe> Megaqwerty: VeriChip is an human implemented RDID chip.
[04:07] <Chillyboarder> I installed it like 6 months ago and had lots of problems
[04:07] <gerath> Thanks usser
[04:07] <Chillyboarder> since not as supported.
[04:07] <Chillyboarder> for drivers
[04:07] <scratch_> Chillyboarder: What sort of hardware do you have?
[04:07] <Megaqwerty> dbe: hmm...interesting...so, it's like tagging for animals?
[04:07] <Chillyboarder> intel chipset
[04:07] <dbe> Megaqwerty: For another art, humans.
[04:08] <Chillyboarder> intergrated
[04:08] <CaptLloyd> Which intel integrated chip is it?
[04:08] <dbe> Megaqwerty: It's more scary then intresting if you study the subject for a couple of months (my mentor is RMS).
[04:09] <Chillyboarder> 945gm intel express chipset
[04:09] <Megaqwerty> dbe: it has to be consensual, so...I'd call it interesting.
[04:09] <gerath> i been also having my window when on a webpage or in miro the window sometimes black out and then back in any one know of this to be bug. and sometimes forces me to forces Quit the window
[04:09] <dbe> Megaqwerty: I'm ok with that, I'm not trying to set you up.
[04:10] <nickrud> Megaqwerty: not to jump in here (blatant lie) but I've already heard about a security company that requires it for employment in it's video spying department
[04:10] <holzmodem> hii, is there a tool like tortoise svn (win), which is integrated in the file system

[04:11] <shwouchk> I can't get either of ralink 2500 cards (usb&pci) to work... I followed the guides... help?
[04:11] <scratch_> Chillyboarder: Huh. I'd think an Intel Chipset would be better supported.
[04:11] <Flannel> holzmodem: KDE has one.  Not sure about gnome.  http://kdesvn.alwins-world.de/
[04:12] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: Have you tried 7.04?
[04:12] <Megaqwerty> dbe: I know what the last two are...the latter, congrats, second to last, while noble, I can't endorse
[04:12] <Chillyboarder> flannel:yes?
[04:12] <nickrud> holzmodem: it's not complete, but: nautilus-script-collection-svn
[04:12] <Chillyboarder> flannel:and lil after i reinstalled windows I had found a program to cinfigure it.
[04:12] <Chillyboarder> flannel: small program in the darkness lurkin, now forget it

[04:26] <dbe> Chillyboarder: Use RealTek
[04:27] <dbe> chief: Intel 1000+ is most non-free.
[04:27] <Flannel> MeRodent: that shouldn't be an issue.  Depending on what you're using, you might need to delete and recreate your root partition.

[04:27] <timewriter> i need ftpd server
[04:27] <timewriter> and i dont know which one to choose
[04:28] <timewriter> pure-ftpd or proftpd
[04:28] <ZenMasterJG> hey all, i had a question about the ubuntu install cd.
[04:28] <MeRodent> Flannel, using live cd as apt is not longer available on the system.
[04:28] <dbe> timewriter: Use Proftdd, glftpd is non-free.
[04:28] <Flannel> MeRodent: do you have a separate home partition?
[04:28] <Pici> ZenMasterJG: Just ask.
[04:28] <Chillyboarder> dbe: is realtek just linux?
[04:28] <spowers> timewriter: do you have special requirements for your ftpd or just plain old ftp?
[04:28] <Flannel> MeRodent: How did you get rid of apt?
[04:28] <dbe> timewriter: proftpd even.
[04:28] <spowers> timewriter: such as vhosting?
[04:28] <Pelo> shiv_j, then try putting the unpacked arhived in /home/user/.icons and then selecting the theme form the mouse dialog in system > prefts
[04:28] <timewriter> i just need a door to login to my box from otherplaces
[04:28] <ZenMasterJG> it worked on every other machine i tried to install ubuntu on, but on this laptop when it loads the live-cd the graphics dont work
[04:28] <timewriter> to get some files i need
[04:28] <MeRodent> Flannel, tasksel removed it.
[04:28] <MrDeadLock> Is there a program that monitors hard drives by way of SMART like there is in windows?
[04:28] <dbe> Chillyboarder: It's usally implemented in the Linux Kernel.
[04:28] <timewriter> from storage hdds
[04:28] <timewriter> no vhost

[04:28] <spowers> there's a package called "ftpd" that will do what you want probably
[04:29] <nickrud> MeRodent: try fsck'ing the partition; I've seen posts on the forums about it being a slightly corrupt disk causing that message
[04:29] <ZenMasterJG> the screen goes black and then it turns white from the edges inward. its weird.
[04:29] <spowers> whichever one ubuntu is defaulting to these days
[04:29] <timewriter> pure-ftpd - Pure-FTPd FTP server
[04:29] <MeRodent> Flannel, it seemed to be intent on removing all of ubuntu.
[04:29] <Pici> ZenMasterJG: The LiveCD is not compatible with all hardware. If you are trying to install, try using the alternate CD.
[04:29] <timewriter> i find this attractive
[04:29] <dbe> spowers: What are you trying to do?
[04:29] <bknitram> Hi, I used the restricted drivers installer to install the nvidia legacy drivers. After rebooting, my screen resolution dropped. Is there any way to fix it
[04:29] <spowers> dbe: i'm trying to confuse people, but i also want to try out xorg 7.3
[04:30] <dbe> timewriter:  apt-cache show proftpd
[04:30] <ZenMasterJG> Pici: yeah, i was gonna do that, just lazy about burning another disk ;) the alternate cd will be able to figure out the hardware properly for the install, though?
[04:30] <Chillyboarder> dbe: also, wine, would you be able to use that to install windows drivers?
[04:30] <MeRodent> Flannel, I killed tasksel as soon as I recognised that some of the items being removed were actually part of ubuntu rather than just lamp.
[04:30] <Pici> ZenMasterJG: Yep, it should.
[04:30] <shwouchk> I can't get either of ralink 2500 cards (usb&pci) to work... I followed the guides... help? please?
[04:30] <dbe> spowers: How does that relate to ftp servers+
[04:30] <dbe> ?
[04:30] <Pelo> bknitram, there is a package called nvidia config in the repos,  install it , itshould give you dialogs to fix it ,  or edit the xorg.conf file to add the extra res you need
[04:30] <timewriter> and what do i look for ?
[04:30] <Flannel> MeRodent: Thats really odd.  Anyway, do you have a separate home partition?
[04:30] <ZenMasterJG> Pici: ok, thanks. i'll stop being lazy and burn another cd then ;)
[04:30] <dbe> Chillyboarder: I don't use non-free stuff at all.
[04:30] <timewriter> Section: universe/net
[04:31] <dbe> Anyone want to be 100% GNU hacker?
[04:31] <Pelo> timewriter, just use the search button in the tool bar
[04:31] <whatever_> irc.binrev.net
[04:31] <timewriter> what for Pelo  ?
[04:31] <MeRodent> Flannel, nope it's on the root partition. I can access the partition but I would obviously prefer to reinstall without formatting it.
[04:31] <timewriter> i just want to know which ftpd server version is the best
[04:31] <Pelo> timewriter, nvm I thought you were trying to locate a package
[04:31] <timewriter> thats all
[04:31] <timewriter> no i didnt :)
[04:31] <Pelo> !best
[04:31] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[04:31] <timewriter> lol
[04:32] <Chillyboarder> dbe: any idea which laptops dell sells ubuntu with? maybe can request one of there drivers.
[04:32] <Flannel> MeRodent: What you'll want to do is (even if its temporary, although a separate home partition is always a good thing), create/migrate to a separate home partition.  It's best to do it from a liveCD, which, lo and behold, you're running
[04:32] <nickrud> MeRodent: take a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=511910 , maybe that fits
[04:32] <dbe> Chillyboarder: Use Intel on laptops since gNewSense is ported to that arch.
[04:32] <Flannel> MeRodent: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/
[04:32] <ZenMasterJG> Pici: one other question, i've got a Turion 64bit dual core processor. should i go for the x86 or 64 bit version? I've heard just go with x86, but i've also heard that the turion dual core is weird w/ x86 stuff
[04:32] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  check the dell site, all the info is there
[04:32] <Downix> I still can't get ubuntu to compile apps as easily as I'm used to
[04:33] <Chillyboarder> im trying =\
[04:33] <visioncig> can't speak chin here??
[04:33] <Flannel> MeRodent: Then what you'll do is reformat / (and anything else), but not /home, so you'll keep your data
[04:33] <NaNO2x> has anyone had experience using picard?
[04:33] <nickrud> Downix: what issues are you having
[04:33] <Pici> !zh | visioncig
[04:33] <ubotu> visioncig: For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[04:33] <Pelo> !cn | visioncig
[04:33] <dbe> Chillyboarder: I don't recommend Dell since they team with Microsoft, that would be an incorrect political statment.
[04:33] <Chillyboarder> lol my laptop is a Dell Inspiron 640m.
[04:33] <Flannel> dbe: Please take non-support to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks.
[04:34] <Downix> nickrud: well, first I couldn't get AROS to compile, then I couldn't get gcc to compile as a cross-compiler.  I know it's something in the makefile, but I'm dumbfounded as to what I'm overlooking
[04:34] <Pici> ZenMasterJG: You will have issues with proprietary programs under 64 bits such as Flash.
[04:34] <alecwh> Hello! I'm having a strange problem... I can run Totem perfectly without Compiz-fusion, but when I turn compiz on, Totem crashes (just exits) when I play any video. What's wrong?
[04:34] <dbe> Flannel: Ask people to ask me the right questions rather.
[04:34] <nickrud> Downix: ah, you're beyond the type of compilation help I can offer ;)
[04:34] <ZenMasterJG> Pici: x86 will work ok then? i'll probably stick with that for now, at least. Thanks again.
[04:34] <Pelo> visioncig, I don'T allow private msg,  please talk to me in the chanel
[04:34] <dbe> Pici: Gnash?
[04:34] <whatever_> irc://irc.binrev.net/#602
[04:34] <Pici> ZenMasterJG: x86 will definitly work.
[04:34] <Downix> nickrud: I'm in the grey borderline of black gcc magic

[04:35] <xazo> Anyone. How can I verify if I have the Kernel Header files for /lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/build ? I see many files in that directory but I am unsure if they are indeed the Kernel Header files. Thanks.
[04:35] <Pici> whatever_: Please stop.

[04:36] <alecwh> Hello! I'm having a strange problem... I can run Totem perfectly without Compiz-fusion, but when I turn compiz on, Totem crashes (just exits) when I play any video. What's wrong?
[04:36] <nickrud> xazo: dpkg -l | linux-headers* | grep 15-generic ; if the first two characters on that line are ii, it's installed
[04:36] <whatever_> goddamn, i didn't mean to
[04:36] <Pelo> shwouchk,  did you try with ndiswrapper ?
[04:36] <shwouchk> Pelo: not really an option
[04:36] <stdin> bullgard4: bash is just a shell, there are other shell. a script is just a list of commands to run in sequence
[04:36] <usser> bullgard4: oh yea there are a lot of scripts, php, perl, python, ruby u name it )))
[04:36] <Pelo> alecwh, ask in #compiz-fusion
[04:37] <nickrud> xazo: erm, one two many characters in that line, corrected:  dpkg -l  linux-headers* | grep 15-generic
[04:37] <Pelo> shwouchk, why not ? donT' they have a windows driver ?
[04:37] <usser> err scripting languages rather
[04:37] <alecwh> Thanks Pelo.
[04:37] <Chillyboarder> anyways
[04:37] <Chillyboarder> dbe:flannel:pelo:thx for ur help
[04:38] <bullgard4> usser:  Thank you for explaining.
[04:38] <nickrud> especially when he left without his issue fixed :)
[04:38] <shwouchk> Pelo: no, I can't get it into the box
[04:39] <bullgard4> stdin: I disagree. A list of commands in sequence is no script. This simple list would not run anything.
[04:39] <MeRodent> If I just resize the existing ubuntu partition, it should leave the existing install and home directories shouldn't it?
[04:40] <dbe> MeRodent: That depends how you rezise it.
[04:40] <stdin> bullgard4: it would run the commands
[04:40] <Pelo> shwouchk,  put the install cd in ,  you should get a msg asking if you want to use it as  a repos ,  say yes,  then you can install ndiswrapper from apt-get / synaptic  if that doesn't work,  browse the install cd,  under  /pool/man/N
[04:40] <MeRodent> dbe, using the livecd installer
[04:40] <dbe> MeRodent: I have no clue what the GUI partitioner useing (PARTED)?
[04:40] <dbe> using*
[04:40] <Pelo> what was chilly's issue ?
[04:41] <nickrud> dbe: gparted , yes
[04:41] <shwouchk> Pelo: the only way to get a net connection is via the wifi cards which aren't working
[04:41] <dbe> nickrud: GNU PARTED is nice. But I don't know how the front-end works.
[04:41] <Pelo> shwouchk,  ndiswrapper in on the install cd,  you don'T need to get it over the internet
[04:41] <beg1689> is there an easy way to stop gnome-panel from starting?
[04:42] <bullgard4> stdin: I repeat: A simple list would not run the commands. Full stop.
[04:42] <nickrud> dbe: I just use cfdisk, the one time I used gparted I snarfed the disk, bad partition table.
[04:42] <shwouchk> Pelo: I do need the windows drivers
[04:42] <stdin> bullgard4: sure it would, why not?
[04:42] <dbe> nickrud: I use fdisk still.
[04:42] <Pelo> shwouchk,  the cd that came with the card ?
[04:42] <Xyhthyx> beg1689: System->Preferences->Sessions remove gnome-panel
[04:42] <usser> bullgard4: yea i dont think i get your point to, why not?
[04:42] <dbe> shwouchk: For what?
[04:42] <xazo> ii  linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic 2.6.20-15.27   Linux kernel headers for version 2.6.20 on x
[04:42] <nickrud> xazo: that means the headers are installed
[04:43] <shwouchk> Pelo: that might work.. how would I extract the drivers off the EXE though?
[04:43] <xazo> kewl.. thanks a lot . you people are awesome!
[04:43] <shwouchk> dbe: rt2500 based wifi cards
[04:43] <alecwh> Hello! I'm having a strange problem... I can run Totem perfectly without Compiz-fusion, but when I turn compiz on, Totem crashes (just exits) when I play any video. What's wrong?
[04:43] <nickrud> xazo: one more test:  uname -r : make sure those headers match your running kernel
[04:43] <dbe> shwouchk: I would use a firmware free card.
[04:43] <Pelo> shwouchk, how are you getting on the internet atm ?  can't you get the drivers from the intenet and then transfer then to linux using eitehr a fat32 partiton or a flash driver or something ?
[04:44] <dbe> shwouchk: see fsf.org and click on resources > hardware.
[04:44] <dbe> shwouchk: I cooperate with them
[04:44] <Pelo> shwouchk, you might be able to extract the .exe with the archive manager in ubuntu but I am not srue
[04:44] <Pici> dbe: That is hardly a solution.
[04:44] <Paulieshomepc> how d all
[04:44] <shwouchk> dbe: yes, that's a bit late to do right now... are you sure these need firmware?
[04:44] <bullgard4> usser: At least a bash script needs at the beginning a special code in order to be run. I beleive this starting code is called a she-bang. Otherwise the bash would not run the list of commands.
[04:44] <dbe> Pici: I don't care, I give recommendations on free solutions, not non-free.
[04:44] <nickrud> dbe, we're a bit casual here, suck 'em in, then convert ;)
[04:44] <Paulieshomepc> lol dbe
[04:44] <bullgard4> believe
[04:45] <dbe> Paulieshomepc: ?
[04:45] <shwouchk> Pelo: I use it on another box which does have linux.. no way to move the data though
[04:45] <brad_> hi
[04:45] <Paulieshomepc> i  give non free
[04:45] <dbe> Paulieshomepc: Oh.
[04:45] <Paulieshomepc> how  bout  some free advice  on libpurple
[04:46] <dbe> I prefer freedom over everything, no matter solution.
[04:46] <shwouchk> besides, theres no need to convert me.. I have linux on 4 boxen
[04:46] <brad_> can someone help
[04:46] <Paulieshomepc> cant sseem to get  it installede

[04:46] <brad_> i have linux ubuntu ultimate and automatix2 came standard
[04:47] <brad_> but wont work wen it downloads aux codecs
[04:47] <nickrud> brad_: if you haven't used automatix, don't
[04:47] <Pici> !automatix | brad_
[04:47] <ubotu> brad_: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[04:47] <Paulieshomepc> whos  got  libpurple
[04:47] <Paulieshomepc> i  cant seem to  get a good  download of it
[04:47] <astro76> brad_, you should install the real Ubuntu
[04:47] <brad_> whats the advantage?
[04:47] <nickrud> !codecs | brad (there are solutions to that problem here)
[04:47] <usser> Paulieshomepc: thats from pidgin?
[04:47] <ubotu> brad (there are solutions to that problem here): For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:47] <Pelo> brad_, get the regular cd , and install it you can get everyitng that is in ultimate online no problem and you don'T have a butload of stuf you don't need with thedefault install
[04:47] <Paulieshomepc> its  part of  pidgins  nightmare
[04:48] <Paulieshomepc> debian  s  download  seems to be broken or  spomething
[04:48] <cellofellow> I have an old laptop I just installed on. The sound chipset is a VIA VT82C686 AC97. When I play something it just keeps cutting out.
[04:48] <brad_> got ya thanks...
[04:48] <usser> Paulieshomepc: u trying to install pidgin?
[04:48] <dbe> brad_: Depends if you looking for a stable version of Ubuntu or a stable version of freedom.
[04:48] <bullgard4> usser: I do not understand your message "bullgard4: bash script.sh". What does it mean? Be more verbose.
[04:48] <brad_> although got to love not having to dowmload everything
[04:48] <Paulieshomepc> ya i have pidgin installed
[04:48] <mallards_> does anyone have experience with the cisco anyconnect vpn client on 7.04 ... it installs and connects, but the routing tables or tunnel seems to be broken?
[04:48] <nickrud> brad_: it's not the advantages, it's the disadvantages of automatix. Some of it is harmless, other parts less so
[04:49] <Pelo> brad_, you did download everthing when yo downloaed the 6 dvd of the ultimate editon ( or whaever it is ) this way you just dl what you actualy want
[04:49] <Paulieshomepc> cant  connect to chats  or  servers  so  i looked  for  libpurple  and its  not installed
[04:49] <Hitiek> is Tribe CD 6 going to be released? is it delayed or will it not be released at all?
[04:49] <brad_> theres no point in automatix
[04:49] <beg1689> tribe cd 6 is a milestone
[04:49] <Xyhthyx> Tribe = actual release.
[04:49] <Xyhthyx> *tribe 6
[04:49] <nickrud> Hitiek: ask on #ubuntu+1 , they'll more than likely know
[04:49] <Paulieshomepc> down load  libpurple and  su  it to  configure  and it  doesnt  do  jack
[04:49] <Pelo> Hitiek, ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:49] <beg1689> if you are up to date then afaik you already have whatever would be on it
[04:49] <usser> bullgard4: you can always run script by manually specifiyng the interpreter sort of telling bash to try to run commands in this particular file so command 'bash scriptname' will always run a script even if its not executable
[04:49] <dbe> How many percent in the Ubunutu resp. is non-free?
[04:49] <beg1689> it is being used as a milestone only
[04:50] <usser> bullgard4: and doesnt have a she-bang
[04:50] <brad_> my friend installed ubuntu ultimate on his laptop yesterday and it went without a hitch BUT
[04:50] <Hitiek> nickrud, Pelo: ahh, thanks
[04:50] <alecwh> Hello! I'm having a strange problem... I can run Totem perfectly without Compiz-fusion, but when I turn compiz on, Totem crashes (just exits) when I play any video. What's wrong?
[04:50] <beg1689> no problem here
[04:50] <nickrud> dbe: a large percentage is dealing with media playback, wireless firmware, etc

[04:50] <brad_> hi
[04:51] <dudeicles> does anyone here know an easy way to uninstall Kubuntu?
[04:51] <brad_> does any1 know the problem?
[04:51] <Pelo> alecwh,  compiz doesn't play nice with any video player , ask in #compiz-fusion for a solution if they have one
[04:51] <Sonicadvance1> I have two partitions on my drive Partition 1 is just for the Ubuntu install and Partition 2 is for the home directory. now, If I already have my username in the home directory "sonicadvance" and I go to install it and make the user "sonicadvance" in the installer, does it overwrite my settings and Files?
[04:51] <dbe> nickrud and Pelo; Thanks.
[04:51] <Paulieshomepc> sure  reformat  your  harddrive ??
[04:51] <bullgard4> usser: I see. Thank you very much for explaining. I will do further reading in due time.
[04:51] <Flannel> Sonicadvance1: no.  Make sure that partition (the home one) is set to not format, just use.
[04:51] <co_hardcore_new_> #dallnet
[04:51] <brad_> install another distro over it
[04:51] <nickrud> dudeicles: sudo apt-get remove libqt3-mt will remove nearly all
[04:51] <dbe> nickrud: Reminds me of DTD compability for websites.
[04:51] <Pici> brad_: Ubuntu Ultimate is a 3rd party modification of Ubuntu, as such we are not sure what is different and cannot pproperly provide support for it.
[04:51] <cellofellow> I just ran lsmod and it comes out that it is using the snd_via82xx module.
[04:52] <nickrud> dbe: I know what a dtd is, but not the context ;)
[04:52] <Sonicadvance1> okay, thank you for the confirmation Flannel
[04:52] <v_> winzip keeps saying tar files are an unknown filetype. I'm trying to install amarok in vista.
[04:52] <Paulieshomepc> someone send  me their  libpurple   in debian plz
[04:52] <brad_> thanks
[04:52] <dbe> nickrud: I'm the author of sv.gnu.org/p/sovix
[04:52] <dbe> nickrud: See sovix.org
[04:52] <dudeicles> nickrud: that's all I'll need to do?
[04:52] <cellofellow> wait, it wants to work now.
[04:52] <usser> Paulieshomepc: install pidgin from source, its not that hard actually
[04:52] <nickrud> dbe: I took a look at it earlier earlier.
[04:52] <Pelo> Sonicadvance1,  if the /home/user matches the username when hyou install it will just use that folder and use the info in it , nothing gets deleted, if it,s another username a new /home/uswer folder will be created tomatch , the other one will remane to allow you to create a matching user
[04:53] <whatever_> v, use 7zip.
[04:53] <dbe> nickrud: And enter 'read' in the CLI in the footer.
[04:53] <usser> Paulieshomepc: just do sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall
[04:53] <dbe> nickrud: Oh, well, see the read function anyway.
[04:53] <Paulieshomepc> usser  did  install from source  when installing it  says  if  ya dont have  this  file  to leave  out usr  bin plugins
[04:53] <v_> Whatever -- will 7zip work in vista?
[04:53] <Sonicadvance1> Okay, cya
[04:53] <nickrud> dudeicles: it will remove nearly everything, not every trace but probably 95%. The rest , well, it doesn't take much room and won't be active
[04:53] <Paulieshomepc> so i did  and  now  i  get  no chat  lol
[04:54] <brad_> im using ordinary ubuntu rite now, when i use the command to turn on compiz-fusion my screen goes black and then comes back on and metacity is still on
[04:54] <dbe> I gotta sleep, sorry if I'm being lame here, got little to do.
[04:54] <dudeicles> cool
[04:54] <usser> Paulieshomepc: bah, how strange

[04:54] <whatever_> idunno if 7zip works in vista.  most likely though.
[04:55] <usser> Paulieshomepc: are u on amd64? cause i have a deb for amd
[04:55] <cellofellow> it's cutting out again. Maybe it's gxine.
[04:55] <Pelo> mallards_,  start with the restricted drivers in the admin menu , ifthose don't work use the binaries
[04:55] <v_> zyklodeus -- Its not showing up in windows registry and I am trying to fix the framerates in call of duty 2. I've got the latest nvidia drivers but cod2 uses direct X 9 and I only have direct x 10 and direct x 9 legacy -- i think maybe its a direct X issue??
[04:55] <whatever_> does anything work in Vista?
[04:55] <Paulieshomepc> user  its an intel i believe  dell demension??
[04:55] <usser> Paulieshomepc: if u do use checkinstall it makes compiling stuff easier, just make sure to carefully read what checkinstall doing at every point of time

[04:56] <mallards_> Pelo, the restricted drivers wont work with 3d apps
[04:56] <Pelo> !ati | mallards_ then proceed to the binaries
[04:56] <Paulieshomepc> user  thanks  for the  info  i  generally  never  have  a problem with installing anything so i rarely if ever  do a check install so  i will this time
[04:56] <ubotu> mallards_ then proceed to the binaries: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:56] <usser> Vorondil: gwenview
[04:56] <cellofellow> Vorondil: I just use gqview. :)
[04:57] <Paulieshomepc> tc all back to the  install  board lol
[04:57] <v_> I'm just going to downgrade my direct X
[04:57] <mallards_> ubotu and Pelo - i have tried both
[04:57] <brad_> sorry about all the questions im a new linux user
[04:57] <Pelo> mallards_, those are the only solutions
[04:57] <Pici> brad_: no problem, everyone was a new user once.
[04:57] <xazo> I encounter error when installing vpnclient-linux. A solution is to do this but I dont know what it means to do ---> Simply sed or patch out any references to linux/config.h with linux/autoconf.h
[04:57] <TooNamI> hello     i have a nvidia card and i the drivers are installed and running but i am getting an error of libGL.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[04:57] <oranye> nova
[04:57] <Pelo> brad_,  donT apologise for being new, as long as you learn we are happy
[04:58] <TooNamI> any ideas on how to fix this when i am running k9copy
[04:58] <TooNamI> ?
[04:58] <brad_> why is it that my update manager decided to tell me i have 148 new updates and when i look at them, they are all programs i already have
[04:58] <brad_> thanks
[04:58] <cellofellow> brad_: that's new versions of same stuff.
[04:58] <Pelo> TooNamI, do a search in the forum for the exact error msg,  I know there is a fix for that I just don'T know it ,   www.ubuntuforums.org
[04:59] <Pelo> brad_, they are updates , Ie new versions of the apps
[04:59] <cellofellow> brad_: that's what the updates are. Installing new stuff is just installing new stuff or sometimes backports (new stuff).
[04:59] <Pelo> brad_,  you only get updates for packages you have installedd
[04:59] <nickrud> brad_: probably bug & security fixes, your dvd files of those are out of date
[04:59] <TooNamI> im still trying to fix this k9copy :(
[04:59] <mallards_> Pelo and ubotu - are you aware of anyone who has an ati card that runs 3d without any bugs?
[04:59] <brad_> thanks everyone
[04:59] <chief> mallards_: ubotu is a bot ;-)
[04:59] <nickrud> mallards_: I did, once :)
[05:00] <TooNamI> mallards_,   i run ubuntu fine with ati 9600 pro
[05:00] <usser> mallards_: 3d stuff like games? or u mean beryl?
[05:00] <TooNamI> ermm did run fine
[05:00] <Pelo> mallards_, ubotu is a bot ,  we use it to trigger standard repleis to common quesitons
[05:00] <mallards_> google maps ...
[05:00] <mallards_> that kind of stuff
[05:00] <Vorondil> cellofellow: Nifty, thanks.  :)
[05:00] <MrDeadLock> DOes anyone here use a WEB based torrent client on ubuntu?
[05:00] <lufis> I tried cleaning up some disk space and removed some stuff. Now when I try to update the repos I get this error: E: Archive directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing.
[05:00] <TooNamI> yep multi desktop with 3d
[05:00] <usser> mallards_: my 9800 runs pretty smooth
[05:00] <Pelo> mallards_, and I don'T use ati / nvidia cards myself , which is why I send ppl the ubotu how to

[05:01] <xazo> how do I install a *.diff file?

[05:01] <chief> MrDeadLock: I believe there's a Firefox extension for handling torrents
[05:01] <Pelo> MrDeadLock, look up azureus in wikipedia,  scroll to the bottom of the page there should be alink for comparision or torrent clients,  or a list of .

[05:02] <mallards_> anyone know about the cisco anyconnect vpn client?
[05:02] <mallards_> =)
[05:02] <bruenig> xazo, .diff files are usually patches, you need to patch a file with it
[05:02] <Pelo> mallards_, you can try asking in #ubuntu-effects , it needs 3d capabilites they might know how to fix your problem , but no garranties
[05:02] <xazo> bruenig. i have a file called whatever.diff. how do I apply patch?
[05:03] <bruenig> xazo, what file is it supposed to patch?

[05:12] <nickrud> Kagar: is synaptic or the update-manager or add/remove open?

[05:14] <nickrud> http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ Moniker43
[05:14] <Pelo> kagar it's possyble you hve another installer that is zombie process, restart and retry
[05:14] <Kagar> CURSES! Hmm, this is strange.
[05:14] <Kagar> Well, I had already rebooted 2 times.
[05:14] <nickrud> LukeEkblad: if you used dpkg to install it, you can use synaptic to uninstall it
[05:14] <Xero> Pelo, can you think of anything that I could do?
[05:14] <kidbuntu> how do i install this theme 65316-HuDan.tar.gz
[05:14] <Pelo> LukeEkblad, you should be able to remove it from synaptic ,  or just sudo apt-get remove wine
[05:14] <Moniker43> nickrud, aha - thanks. i think that's me fallen foul yet again to the nasty new ubuntu website ;)
[05:15] <nickrud> Moniker43: file a bug :)
[05:15] <Moniker43> Kagar, will it still not let you run synaptic?
[05:15] <Kagar> And does Zombie Process mean it won't show up in my process list?
[05:15] <Pelo> Xero,  not realy , sorry , I'm only good with the easy stuff
[05:15] <Kagar> I'll try and start synaptic

[05:15] <Kagar> Synaptic works.
[05:15] <Pelo> Kagar, no a zombie would show ,
[05:15] <Moniker43> Kagar, okay good. close synaptic and apt-get should work
[05:15] <Kagar> oh, wait
[05:15] <Kagar> hmm
[05:15] <Moniker43> Kagar, you are running apt-get as root, yes?
[05:16] <Pelo> Xero, the ppl in ##linux might be able to help
[05:16] <Kagar> I ran the add / remove, started synaptic and got this.
[05:16] <nickrud> kidbuntu: system->prefs->themes, and drag & drop the theme file onto the dialog window
[05:16] <Moniker43> Kagar, to run it as root precede the command with "sudo" and enter your root password when it asks
[05:16] <Kagar> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[05:16] <Xero> Meh. Screw it.
[05:16] <Pelo> Moniker43, he's trying to run gedit on the desktop
[05:16] <LukeEkblad> I just uninstalled wine but its still there, i tryed to uninstall it every way i know!

[05:16] <Kagar> could be repositories?
[05:16] <kidbuntu> nickrud: thanks
[05:16] <Moniker43> Kagar, i've had that problem before - dpkg can be a pain in the ass sometimes... keep asking till an expert answers ;)
[05:16] <nickrud> Kagar: ah, do that in a terminal , with sudo
[05:17] <Pelo> Kagar,  close gdebi and run ths sudo dpkg--configure -a command in the terminal

[05:18] <nickrud> and he takes all the credit!
[05:18] <cari> nickrud: Was orginially attempting to mount the Quake III CD to follow instructions from a post. I resorted to the music disk as i figured the Q3 disk might be the issue
[05:18] <Kagar> ha ha, fixed it.
[05:18] <Kagar> apt-get -f install
[05:18] <Pici> LukeEkblad: Did you expect it to remove any applications that you installed using wine?
[05:19] <Xero> R.O.F.L Kagar
[05:19] <Kagar> Sun-java6-bin was corrupted during a last install
[05:19] <Kagar> and I guess it didn't shutdown all the way

[05:19] <Kagar> ANd hey Xero
[05:19] <Xero> You made a newb mistake not doing that first.
[05:19] <LukeEkblad> Pici:  i was hoping
[05:19] <Kagar> I am a newb though.. :(
[05:19] <Xero> Oh. Sorry then.
[05:19] <Pelo> Kagar, why did you install java from a bin ? sun-java6 is in the backport repos
[05:19] <cari> nickrud: Correct. No icon on desktop. That is why I navigated to the /media dir
[05:19] <Pici> LukeEkblad: You'd have to run the uninstalls from within wine to completely remove them.
[05:19] <brad_> thanks all. bye
[05:19] <Kagar> Pelo It's for a game that I got off of getdeb.net
[05:20] <nickrud> cari: ok, take out the cd, open a terminal, and type    tail -f /var/log/syslog  in the terminal. That will show a log of what happens when you put the cd back in.
[05:20] <Pici> LukeEkblad: You could also remove ~/.wine/ and also remove the menu using the menu editor if my suggestion is not an option.
[05:20] <Pelo> Kagar, same java , just easier toinstall
[05:20] <Kagar> yay! ^_^

[05:26] <fondor1> Hi all.  Question about NFS shares between Ubuntu 7.04 and XP Pro.  I've got a sucessful NFS server running on Ubuntu - I've tested with two separate ubuntu machines, both can read and write fine.
[05:26] <bigcx2> will bring in the client and server
[05:26] <TooNamI> ermm enabled openGL on k9copy
[05:26] <fondor1> I followed the method outlined in the following post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=310168 and everything was working correctly up to mapping the network drive.  Browsing to my share location (\\192.168.0.7\home\patrick) (which windows can see), I select it and click finish.
[05:26] <Pelo> cellofellow, you need to ask specific questions
[05:26] <fondor1> It pops up a dialog saying "Attempting to connect to \\192.168.0.7\home\patrick..."  Then a second dialog pops up saying "NFS Login Sucessful"  and "You are currently logged in as:   UserName: rakai  UID: 1000  Primary GUID: 1000", then says choose yes to accept that login or no to change the settings.
[05:26] <fondor1> Selecting Yes will bring up the XP network prompt for a username and password.  I have only one user on each computer, and neither of these users will login.  When I enter any credentials and click ok, it eats the info and spits the same prompt for credentials again.
[05:27] <fondor1> So far there's a pretty limited pool of resources dealing with this problem (at least that I found).  Does anyone have any experience in this realm of networking?
[05:27] <NEWLINUXUSER> WOW USE ARE SMART
[05:27] <LukeEkblad> Pici:   awesome dude, it is done :)
[05:27] <cellofellow> Pelo: I want to use the wireless card. I looked on the documentation and it says ndiswrapper only. But it does not show when I run lspcmcia. Is there something I missed?
[05:27] <cari> nickrud: Which version are you running, btw?
[05:27] <LukeEkblad> thanks pici!
[05:27] <nickrud> cari: gutsy
[05:27] <cellofellow> I dunno how to get more specific.
[05:27] <Pelo> fondor1,  did you try asking in #networking ?
[05:27] <RyanT5000> how do i make samba sync up with my normal unix user database?
[05:27] <RyanT5000> (on Feisty desktop)
[05:28] <fondor1> negative, but that's because I didn't realize it existed...! ;)  omw, thanks
[05:28] <cari> nickrud: I was actually happy in Feisty. I managed to get my extra mouse buttons, extra keyboard buttons working. And read/write to the NTFS.
[05:28] <CyberMad> does anyone here use KDE Fax on Ubuntu? Is that works ?
[05:28] <Pelo> cellofellow, ndiswrapper is a linux app that allows you to use a windows driver for a device that doesn,T have a linux driver
[05:28] <Thunor> Is it possible to ssh into yourself as a different user?
[05:28] <nickrud> RyanT5000: I'm told you can use pam to sync between smbuser and passwd ; that's a pointer, not an offer of knowledge
[05:28] <Pelo> Nighthawk420,  hello ?

[05:34] <Pelo> cellofellow,  did you do a search in the forum for your card model ?
[05:34] <spuddogg_> Pelo, i've been to those sites but can't decide.  i was asking if anyone had any recommendations
[05:34] <NEWLINUXUSER> WHY CANT I USE CAPS
[05:34] <NEWLINUXUSER> IT IS MY TRADE MARK
[05:34] <adayah> ive followed the wiki on ubuntu forums and still no wireless extensions
[05:34] <adayah> used ndiswrapper and the driver
[05:35] <vexati0n> "CAPS! It's like cruise control for cool!"
[05:35] <faileas> as if ;)
[05:35] <spuddogg_> vexati0n, lol
[05:35] <adayah> anyone got one of these working
[05:35] <Pelo> SpudDogg,  those sites also have ratings and most downloaded notes
[05:35] <neramos> adayah: which card is it ?
[05:35] <vexati0n> actually i made it up while in a period of deep and gothy depression :( i burned black candles and prayed to the god of black lace
[05:35] <adayah> usb adapter....the wusb54gsc
[05:35] <neramos> adayah: which card is it, laptop in build ?
[05:35] <adayah> linksys

[05:36] <nickrud> lol
[05:36] <adayah> people on the forums claim to have it working but ive tried several tricks and none work
[05:36] <vexati0n> i'm using the new default theme for fedora
[05:37] <nickrud> vexati0n: what's that?
[05:37] <vexati0n> it's one of my favorite GTK themes so far :/
[05:37] <vexati0n> um
[05:37] <vexati0n> i forget. hold on.
[05:37] <adayah> but i am new to this terminal stuff too
[05:37] <fondor1> Well, no response from #networking, so you guys might be my last hope. ;)
[05:37] <faileas> vexati0n: you actually got fedora booting? ;)
[05:37] <winbond> adayah, get what working?
[05:37] <adayah> the wusb54gsc usb wirless adapter
[05:37] <neramos> adayah: did you use this help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=225206 ??
[05:37] <vexati0n> nickrud: it's called Nodoka
[05:37] <overclucker> fondor1, do you have a pass set for the user you want to login as?
[05:37] <adayah> let me check
[05:37] <Nutubuntu> What did nickrud say? I missed it by seconds ...
[05:38] <Pelo> fondor1, don't dispair you need patience,  and try at different times of day
[05:38] <cellofellow> Pelo: I did not search the forum, but I did find the card in the community docs and it says it needs ndiswrapper. Still, the pcmcia stuff isn't even turning it on.
[05:38] <adayah> yes, that the forum post i followed
[05:38] <fondor1> Pelo: User is setup, and has a password, yes.  User on the Ubu machine is patrick, windows is rakai.
[05:39] <Pelo> cellofellow,  the forum might contain howtos and the problems/solustions of other users installing it
[05:39] <overclucker> fondor1, xphome?
[05:39] <cari> nickrud: Would it work attempting to mount the drive in terminal?
[05:39] <cellofellow> Pelo: ok.
[05:39] <bobbyyu> Can someone please tell me what does "job-hold-until-specified" mean?
[05:39] <fondor1> overcclucker: Negative, XPPro.
[05:39] <Pelo> fondor1, could it be that on the receiving end you need to setup a ... guest password and user ?
[05:40] <neramos> adayah:  u running ubuntu 7.04 ?
[05:40] <Pelo> bobbyyu, what app do you get this in ?
[05:40] <fondor1> Pelo: As in, create a second account specifically for the use of connecting via the NFS share?
[05:40] <bobbyyu> Printing
[05:40] <adayah> yes 7.04 feisty fawn is what i have....specifically Ubuntu Studio 7.04
[05:40] <bobbyyu> Pelo: I was printing a test page
[05:40] <Pelo> fondor1, possibly or an account in nfs ? I realy dont, know about this stuff ,  but something saying  ok allow ppl to connect using this username/password
[05:41] <neramos> adayah:  this is the one you need -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=459617
[05:41] <neramos> adayah:  this should work
[05:41] <Pelo> bobbyyu, no printer specfied maybe ?
[05:41] <cari> gonna reboot the system ... (it works for windows, can't hurt to try in linux hehe)
[05:41] <adayah> ok will try this out
[05:41] <adayah> thanks!
[05:41] <Pelo> bobbyyu,  or no port set
[05:41] <neramos> adayah:  welcome
[05:41] <bobbyyu> I did specify a printer what do you suggest me do?
[05:41] <bobbyyu> It's a network printer
[05:42] <bobbyyu> It's hooked to another computer (connected)
[05:42] <whatever_> rebooting linux is typically not going to change anything
[05:42] <Pelo> bobbyyu, it's abit over my head
[05:42] <overclucker> fondor1, i suggest you install linux on the other coputer, lol
[05:42] <bobbyyu> You don't know?
[05:42] <fondor1> Pelo: I hesitate to create a new user in the system, especially because I know that NFS shares work flawlessly when connecting Ubuntu to Ubuntu.
[05:42] <neramos> bobbyyu: its a network printer connected to an other pc ?
[05:43] <NaNO2x> is there a good program for ubuntu that can automate id3 tags that includes genres?
[05:43] <bobbyyu> Yes
[05:43] <fondor1> Overclucker: lol, I have both, actually ;) though school requires XPPro for expensive software...
[05:43] <overclucker> fondor1, or wine, or crossover
[05:44] <Pelo> fondor1, said I don'T know much about this, but I thougt you needed to use samba to communicate wth a windows machine
[05:44] <cari> yay ... whatever was happening before, i now has optical drives!
[05:44] <neramos> bobbyyu: I would try to make the ip static, put it in the router as static or reserved mac address so you get always the same IP. then you should connect to the printer all the time
[05:44] <vexati0n> gah
[05:44] <vexati0n> stupid google
[05:44] <overclucker> is pelo melo?
[05:44] <bobbyyu> neHow do I make the IP static?
[05:45] <Pelo> overclucker,  high-strung if you must know
[05:45] <neramos> bobbyyu: system -> administration -> printer -> then add the ip of your printer
[05:45] <neramos> bobbyyu: it depends on the router
[05:45] <PPPP> I'm not sure how to change this within ccsm. If i have a few windows opened, if I click on the back one, there is an animation of the windows sliding. How do I change it/turn it off?
[05:45] <cellofellow> Pelo: ok, I got the card to show. It appeared in lspci instead of lspcmcia for some reason.
[05:46] <bobbyyu> What's the IP of my printer? How do I find that out?
[05:46] <bobbyyu> Is it the same ip as my other comptuer that's connected to the printer?
[05:46] <Pelo> PPPP, sounds like ou have the effects enabled,  instll compiz-config from synaptic
[05:46] <neramos> bobbyyu: most of the new routers have something called address reservation; meaning its a dhcp server giving a random normally ip address but now, due to address reservation giving it the same ip all the time (meaning static)
[05:46] <Pelo> cellofellow,  congrats
[05:46] <fondor1> Overclucker: Might work, but MatLab can have issues however, and I have never been able to get Orcad's PSpice working properly.
[05:47] <neramos> bobbyyu: okey i think that due to the fact that the printer is connected to your pc, I would say the printer IP is the ip of your computer
[05:47] <PPPP> Pelo: yup, thanks
[05:48] <bobbyyu> WHich computer? This one or the one that's connected to the other computer
[05:48] <fondor1> Pelo: NFS is a different protocol, used usually between *nix systems.  Since this machine is the only windows machine on the network however, I would prefer not to have to install samba and have two different shares running on the same folder.
[05:48] <neramos> bobbyyu: the computer that is connected with your printer
[05:48] <Pelo> fondor1, I'll make a note of that
[05:48] <bobbyyu> I'll try
[05:48] <fondor1> Pelo:  Microsoft released a free tool to be able to read NFS shares specifically.
[05:48] <neramos> bobbyyu: or is your printer connected to a hub or your router ?
[05:49] <nickrud> vexati0n: can hardly tell the difference; is it supposed to be compiz enhanced or something
[05:49] <vexati0n> no, it's just a knock-off of clearlooks but i like it better. seems smoother and less distracting.
[05:49] <bobbyyu> No
[05:50] <vexati0n> nickrud: also i like the theme "Glory Simplex," but it isn't finished yet or something.
[05:50] <neramos> bobbyyu: okey then i would say the ip of your printer is the ip of the pc connected to it
[05:50] <nickrud> I'll sit with it for a while; I think I'm either going to love or hate the blue line around this text box
[05:51] <vexati0n> nickrud: lol.. yeah that's so you can tell what box you're typing in! cause there's no other way you'd know....
[05:51] <bobbyyu> What should I pick? IPP, Windows Printer(SMB), Unix Printer(LPD), or TCP /Socket (in Admin - Printer)
[05:51] <vexati0n> cursors are obsolete.
[05:51] <bruenig> it also indicates which box is selected, if you are a keyboarder who uses tab to get between fields
[05:52] <vexati0n> keyboards are obsolete too
[05:52] <overclucker> vexati0n, booo!
[05:52] <nickrud> Brain Taps!!
[05:52] <vexati0n> with new Cybernetic Mind-Control for Ubuntu
[05:52] <bruenig> keyboard > mouse
[05:52] <neramos> bobbyyu: it say smb
[05:53] <vexati0n> bruenig: that is true.
[05:53] <vexati0n> but you forget the rest of it... Telekenesis over Ethernet > Keyboard > Mouse
[05:53] <bobbyyu> That's what I tried, I can't put an IP address because there's no IP address to fill out
[05:54] <overclucker> vexati0n, with tinfoil hat as a firewall
[05:54] <vexati0n> no better solution.
[05:54] <BatteryHuman> After setting up my video drivers (nvidia gforce mx4000) I can't get a screen resolution of over 640x480. what can I do?
[05:55] <overclucker> that way i won't have to upugrade my firewall
[05:55] <neramos> bobbyyu: fuck i am stupid sorry m8t....
[05:55] <Pelo> BatteryHuman, there is a nvidia config pakcage in the repos you can add extraresolutions from there I think
[05:55] <nickrud> BatteryHuman: I've been told that you can use nvidia-settings (you may have to install)
[05:55] <neramos> bobbyyu: use the smb and use the printer as a network share like
[05:55] <BatteryHuman> nvidia-settings only allows me to go up to 640x480
[05:55] <neramos> bobbyyu: but I have never done that before so i cant help you there
[05:56] <vexati0n> BatteryHuman: pretend it's 1993 and be happy with what you got, whiner!
[05:56] <neramos> bobbyyu: sorry m8t
[05:56] <bobbyyu> That's ok, I'll look elsewhere

[06:05] <nickrud> BatteryHuman: the log says X couldn't get any info from your monitor to auto set modes ; you need to add the refresh rates for your monitor to your xorg.conf, I'll post a link
[06:05] <moparisthebest> so delete the whole folder

[06:06] <cellofellow> I have the Windows drive that works with this card here. How can I find the driver files for it? The card is Linksys WPC11 and the chipset is RealTek RTL8180L.
[06:06] <cellofellow> oh, and it's a Windows ME drive.
[06:06] <cellofellow> Are drivers normally in \Windows\System\Drivers\?
[06:06] <cellofellow> no, that's rather empty.
[06:07] <usser> cellofellow: they usually in system32
[06:07] <moparisthebest> google it cellofellow, there are many driver sites
[06:07] <moparisthebest> they could be on your drive, I dont really know :/
[06:07] <mathaeous> anyone in here know anything about kiba?

[06:08] <spuddogg_> what's the easiest way to make sure a program loads on boot?
[06:09] <TooNamI> moparisthebest,  ----  I figured it out
[06:09] <neramos> spuddogg_: system-> administration -> services
[06:09] <moparisthebest> good :)
[06:09] <neramos> spuddogg_: add you program there
[06:10] <spuddogg_> neramos, any idea how to make it run a console command?
[06:10] <TooNamI> ur got me on the right track  ---   i did a remove then did a locate k9copy     found a dir in .kde/share/config  and it had the ini file there

[06:16] <winbond> when i setup the vm in vmware, should i run it as sudo or user?
[06:16] <Jeanpaul145> winbond: vmware should be able to be run in user, from a logical pov
[06:16] <nickrud> winbond: ran vmware as a user, and used a dir I had write privileges to
[06:17] <Jeanpaul145> hi nickrud
[06:17] <nickrud> Jeanpaul145: hi, any luck
[06:17] <Jeanpaul145> nopez

[06:18] <Jeanpaul145> no probz winbond
[06:18] <Jeanpaul145> m'kay
[06:18] <nickrud> I'm good at the things I do ;)
[06:18] <MrObvious> Jeanpaul145: The best place to get advice is on the forums. http://ubuntuforums.org

[06:21] <ubotu> Jeanpaul145: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:21] <d4rkmonkey> just felt like doing that...
[06:21] <Realist_> New networked HP P2015DN just installed. I have it installed in Ubuntu. When I send a print job to it it will only print if I push the Go button. Until then the amber light flashes. I am sure its a setting somewhere but I can not find it.
[06:21] <Jeanpaul145> sorry
[06:22] <Thurin1> I installed Ubuntu but was stuck with a refresh rate of 60hz no matter what, I know my monitor can do up to 85hz in high-res in windows... however I cannot find my V/H Syncs which Xorg asks for... does anyone know if there is a way to find this information in windows? - And would the same h/v sync values be reliable in Linux?
[06:23] <Thurin1> Because I love Ubuntu... but I cannot stand 60hz :(
[06:23] <nickrud> Thurin1: the numbers would be the same, if you can find them. Look under the right clicky desktop, advanced? (me don't use windows much)
[06:23] <winbond> nickrud, so i need to set the location of the vm somewhere in my home folder , right?
[06:23] <nickrud> winbond: that would work,yes.
[06:23] <Jeanpaul145> Thurin1: I've always noticed that on a crt srceen, higher refresh rates are accompanied by a good videocard driver
[06:24] <MrObvious> Thurin1: It's playing with your xorg.conf. Just copy the resolutions and change the Hz to the desired one.
[06:24] <winbond> nickrud, , k , ty
[06:24] <MrObvious> Thurin1: If there's not a GUI to do it with.
[06:25] <sea4ever> omg! This channel is idle!! *cannot look* 'must...type.../part...without....looking!'
[06:25] <evri2|purepwnage> a kernel that is compiled in virtual machine will work on normal machine?I don't want to mess my OS while compiling it.
[06:25] <galpa> #ubuntu-es
[06:25] <nickrud> evri2|purepwnage: the kernel you compile in the virtual machine doesn't affect the host machine ...
[06:26] <evri2|purepwnage> nickrud: does it work for host machine?
[06:26] <MrObvious> :|
[06:26] <Jeanpaul145> I've got another question, this time about grub
[06:26] <MTecknology> How can I connect to a wireless network that requires a key from cli?
[06:26] <MrObvious> Jeanpaul145: You may not eat grubs unless you really like them.
[06:26] <Jeanpaul145> I have a Vista partition, and then installed ubuntu on a logical partition
[06:26] <nickrud> evri2|purepwnage: I've never thought about it, but since I run stock ubuntu installs inside the vm, I don't see why not.
[06:27] <MrObvious> Jeanpaul145: Oh wait you had a question about Grub, not grubs.
[06:27] <spuddogg_> How in the heck do you add programs to 'Services' so they start on boot?
[06:27] <MrObvious> MTecknology: It's something in iwconfig
[06:27] <Jeanpaul145> but there is no Vista entry in the grub menu
[06:27] <Thurin1> Ok...
[06:27] <Jeanpaul145> hehe MrObvious indeed :-P
[06:27] <evri2|purepwnage> nickrud: i don't want mess with my OS.So i will install a new virtual machine just to compile kernel.But does that kernel will work in my normal OS?
[06:27] <nickrud> spuddogg_: put the script in /etc/init.d/ , and run sudo update-rc.d <script> defaults ; that will set it up as a service
[06:27] <MTecknology> MrObvious, is there any quick tutorial you would know of?
[06:27] <evri2|purepwnage> k
[06:27] <Thurin1> But under XORG, you must enter Horizontal sync and Vertical refresh'es - you cannot simply enter a refresh rate....
[06:28] <MrObvious> Jeanpaul145: Try searching on the forums for grub vista
[06:28] <Thurin1> And if I put the wrong ones.. I will physically break my CRT.. :|
[06:28] <nickrud> evri2|purepwnage: ah, when you compile a new kernel, it goes alongside the old kernel ; you can boot from either. No problemo
[06:28] <MrObvious> MTecknology: Lemme look at the command itself.
[06:28] <onats__> which is better? evolution or thunderbird?
[06:28] <MrObvious> MTecknology: I always use the Gnome network manager and it works okay.
[06:28] <Pkdo2> hi guys and girls
[06:28] <Jeanpaul145> I tried to add the entry with the chainloader +1 entry
[06:28] <nickrud> Thurin1: try googling the fcc number on the monitor
[06:28] <Jeanpaul145> it doesnt work
[06:28] <spuddogg_> nickrud, im trying to put 'Beryl Manager' there.  Where would I find / how would I make a script to start that?
[06:28] <Jeanpaul145> but, I'll search
[06:28] <Thurin1> As for the driver, yeah.. but unfortunately - it's a Radeon 7000, not supported by the binary ATI driver and the radeon drive included in Xorg has a bad DDC method - well for the 7000/VE anyways.
[06:28] <MTecknology> MrObvious, me too, but I;m trying to not use gdm to save on battery life
[06:28] <Pkdo2> I just finished installing my ubunto but im having problems
[06:28] <Thurin1> nick, That's a very good idea.
[06:29] <nickrud> spuddogg_: oh, that: put it in System->Preferences->Session
[06:29] <MrObvious> MTecknology: man iwconfig
[06:29] <MTecknology> aight :) ty
[06:29] <MrObvious>               Examples :
[06:29] <MrObvious>                    iwconfig eth0 key 0123-4567-89
[06:29] <nickrud> spuddogg_: beryl is not a service ;)
[06:29] <spuddogg_> nickrud, that was easy enough. thanks
[06:30] <TooNamI> thanks im outz
[06:30] <MTecknology> MrObvious, thanks :) i'll try that when my gf goes offline :), does that require sudo to edit things?
[06:30] <MrObvious> Okay.
[06:30] <MrObvious> MTecknology: I think so.
[06:30] <Pkdo2> I cnat move or rezise my windows!!!
[06:31] <MTecknology> wow... I'm starting to write my scripts in cobol...
[06:31] <cheebz88> hey does anyone know if you can use voice chat in yahoo through kopete?
[06:32] <mikg> hey does anyone know anything about putting ubuntu on a CF card for use with a NEC mobile pro 900?
[06:32] <nickrud> Pkdo2: if you hold down the alt key, can you move the windows?
[06:32] <onats__> my 5-in-1  built.in card reader does not automatically mount the drives when i insert a card...
[06:33] <Pkdo2> no
[06:33] <MrObvious> cheebz88: No clue.
[06:33] <Pkdo2> they have no title bar and that alt technich wont work
[06:33] <nickrud> Pkdo2: can you see a title bar at the top of the window? not the menu
[06:33] <Pkdo2> no
[06:33] <MrObvious> :|
[06:33] <nickrud> Pkdo2: type alt-f2 , and then enter metacity
[06:33] <Pkdo2> it acuured right after the gpu driver install if that helps
[06:35] <rathel> Is there anyway I can see when I installed ubuntu?
[06:35] <Jeanpaul145> I'm off, thanks for the advice
[06:36] <Pkdo2> I do but nothibng happens
[06:36] <nickrud> rathel: ls -l /root/lost+found is probably correct
[06:36] <mikg> anyone know anything about ubuntu on a CF card for use with a NEC mobile pro 900?
[06:36] <nickrud> rathel: erm, ls -l /lost+found , that is
[06:36] <Pkdo2> i cant resize my windows ither
[06:37] <nickrud> Pkdo2: your problem is you don't have a window manager running; how'd you install the video driver?
[06:38] <rathel> nickrud, It says permission denied and when I use sudo I get "Total 0"
[06:38] <dcnstrct> has anyone here tried ubuntu on the ps3 ? is it a pain to setup ?
[06:38] <Pkdo2> something called envy i velieve
[06:38] <nickrud> rathel: erm, I'm really bad tonight:   ls -l -d /lost+found
[06:39] <winbond> i need to choose buslogic or lsi logic for scsi on a vm, how do i know which one to schoose? by the way , i dont have any scsi devices
[06:39] <nickrud> Pkdo2: ok, I'm going to give you a link. I have never tried envy, but people I trust added this to the fact datbase
[06:39] <nickrud> !envy
[06:39] <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!

[06:40] <nickrud> yeah, I hope someone does what mjg59 did for automatix
[06:40] <cheebz88> alright i promise last question
[06:40] <pergesu> hey does anyone know where postgres puts the include files when you install it?
[06:40] <cheebz88> can someone tell me how to use wine, after i've installed it
[06:41] <cheebz88> i'm trying to play diablo 2
[06:41] <cheebz88> er, install it
[06:41] <nickrud> pergesu: unless you've installed the matching -dev package, you don't have the headers
[06:41] <pergesu> nickrud: ah, okay, thanks
[06:41] <mikg> anyone know anything about putting ubuntu on a CF card for use with a NEC mobile pro 900?
[06:41] <MrObvious> cheebz88: wine (programname)
[06:42] <cheebz88> MrObvious: ..i don't believe i remember the name of the .exe file
[06:42] <nickrud> mikg: have you tried searching the forums? Some of them can be quite good, with really obscure stuff ;)
[06:42] <Jordan_U> cheebz88, ##winehq , if the program works without extra configuration then just run "wine /path/to/program.exe" or Double click it ( I think that works, don't use wine much myself though )
[06:42] <faileas> mikg: assuming its mounted correctly on the system, i think there's no reason why it shouldn't install
[06:42] <RobDaGlob> cheebz88:  make sure to run wine /media/cdrom/setup.exe from a directory OTHER THAN /media/cdrom
[06:43] <Pkdo2> after installing the driver it said domthing about automaticalli configuring the xor.conf (recomended) or something and I chose to automaticalli configure it as it was recomended but aftert I had no titlebar or any means of moving/resizing my windows
[06:43] <RobDaGlob> cheebz88, if you run the setup command from INSIDE the cdrom directory, when it goes to switch discs you'll have problems..
[06:43] <MrObvious> cheebz88: Then browse the folder or do a cd /folder/name && ls exe
[06:43] <nickrud> Pkdo2: I have no clue what envy did, sorry
[06:43] <cheebz88> ok thanks i'll give it a shot
[06:43] <MrObvious> Whoop
[06:43] <MrObvious> ls | grep exe
[06:43] <Jordan_U> mikg, You might want to copy over the LiveCD instead of doing a regular install, among other things it will be much more compact and won't wear out the flash as fast
[06:43] <dom_> anyone good w/ compiz?

[06:44] <dom_> i get desktop effects, but no window decorations
[06:45] <Pkdo2> can i try to reinstall the video driver manually from the nvidia page?
[06:45] <DerangedDingo> dom_: try running "compiz --replace" in a terminal
[06:45] <nickrud> Pkdo2: welcome, and I'm sorry that your first lesson is don't let scripts from outside of the ubuntu install mess with your machine
[06:45] <dom_> have been
[06:45] <zhanx> kind of stuck. ubuntu fails to finish booting to gnome so i am here text base
[06:45] <DerangedDingo> hmm
[06:45] <RobDaGlob> dom_, install the emerald package and then run compiz --replace -c emerald
[06:45] <Pkdo2> well so far so good its the onlyy problem i have
[06:45] <MrObvious> Pkdo2: You can, but unless the driver Ubuntu provides gives you problems then it's not needed.
[06:46] <okasa> vlc has all of a sudden stopped playing my dvd's and only my dvds, its as if it detects the dvd and then dosent play it, any ideas?
[06:46] <Jordan_U> Pkdo2, Try using the envy uninstaller, then use restricted manager ( not sure how well envy's uninstaller is though... )
[06:46] <nickrud> zhanx: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, and choose vesa , see if you get a usable screen
[06:46] <zhanx> is there away to see what ubuntu is hung up on at boot?
[06:46] <Pkdo2> I dont have the vanilla ubuntu I have a one dubbed ultimate edition by the way

[06:49] <Jordan_U> Pkdo2, Like I said, try using the envy uninstaller then use System -> Administration -> Restricted Manager
[06:49] <RobDaGlob> Pkdo2, what is your question?  something about xorg.conf?
[06:49] <nickrud> olrrai: I saw someone with that issue before, but couldn't solve it. he did; I think he found something on the forums
[06:49] <olrrai> ok

[06:52] <nickrud> gynix: you mean it says X can't start?
[06:52] <gynix> no x is fine
[06:52] <MrObvious> gynix: What kind of driver were you trying to remove?
[06:52] <RobDaGlob> Pkdo2, try running "metacity --replace"
[06:52] <gynix> its just the system>windowswirelessdrivers crashes when i load it
[06:52] <gynix> wireless card
[06:52] <zhanx> nickrud the reconfig, no good, x starts but it never gets to the login screen, i was trying to install a finger print reader and had t reboot
[06:52] <cheebz88> wow, those guys in #winehq are real assholes
[06:52] <Extravert> hello I get this error from synaptic " The package mfc440cncupswrapper needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it."
[06:53] <nickrud> zhanx: try removing the fingerprint module ;)
[06:53] <zhanx> oh yea... good piont
[06:53] <MrObvious> Extravert: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[06:53] <raviusa26> MrObvious: I am in Orlando, FL
[06:53] <cheebz88> they sent me to a broken link and then kicked me after i said it was broken
[06:53] <MrObvious> raviusa26: Cool.
[06:53] <MrObvious> cheebz88: Sorry dude. Just go wine path/to/exe.exe
[06:53] <MrObvious> cheebz88: If you can't find it then look for it using your file manager.
[06:54] <Extravert> MrObvious: I get same error after sudo apt-get update
[06:54] <gynix> i even tried spt-get remove/install ndisgtk
[06:54] <okasa> can anyone help me figure out why my vlc player wont play dvds anymore?
[06:54] <raviusa26> MrObvious: Cool. I tested Ubuntu for the first time after getting so tired of the Microsoft Monopoly. I have to tell you it was so easy to install and get it to work that I didn't even bother to try Windows VIsta. Can you believe this?
[06:54] <RobDaGlob> okasa, did you recently update any multimedia components or anything?
[06:55] <kishan_> raviusa26, good job
[06:55] <MrObvious> Extravert: Okay did it update then?
[06:55] <cheebz88> MrObvious: but it doesn't show up in the cdrom folder for some reason
[06:55] <raviusa26> okasa: There are many things that could be wrong. Give it a lspci -vvv and tell us if you see the DVD
[06:55] <nickrud> Extravert: you will have to remove it with     sudo dpkg -r --force-remove-reinstreq mfc <whatever>
[06:55] <zhanx> is there a way to turn off parts and joins in tirc?
[06:55] <Pkdo2> I uninstalled them throuh envy and then the retricted manager to disable it
[06:55] <MrObvious> cheebz88: Try mounting the CD-ROm then.
[06:55] <MrObvious> *ROM
[06:55] <MrObvious> raviusa26: Yeah I don't play monopoly much either.
[06:55] <okasa> RobDaGlob: i dont believe so no
[06:55] <okasa> raviusa26: ok one sec
[06:55] <cheebz88> there we go
[06:55] <cheebz88> ok i just need to mount it now then i supposed
[06:55] <cheebz88> how might that be done?
[06:56] <MrObvious> cheebz88: man mount
[06:56] <Pkdo2> im going to restart and ill be back to see waht happens
[06:56] <raviusa26> MrObvious: I never bother to test Windows Vista. Ubuntu was so easy and all of my devices worked just perfect.
[06:56] <Pkdo2> thanx guys
[06:56] <nickrud> Pkdo2: luck
[06:56] <MrObvious> cheebz88: I'll give you a hint: The mount location is /dev/cdrom and the mountpoint is /media/cdrom usually.

[06:57] <kishan_> just asking raviusa26
[06:57] <nickrud> MrObvious: it's a package that he tried to dpkg -i , or from a no longer enabled repo. There's only one way out :)
[06:57] <virtuoussin13> is no longer detected
[06:57] <raviusa26> kishan_: Yes. I have been programming for 3 years now in ColdFusion. http://www.adobe.com/coldfusion/
[06:58] <MrObvious> nickrud: Yeah remove it I know.
[06:58] <raviusa26> kishan_: Are you a programmer?
[06:58] <virtuoussin13> anyone heard of this happening?
[06:58] <kishan_> no no raviusa26

[06:58] <MrObvious> visioncig: I can.
[06:58] <MrObvious> visioncig: Be more specific please.
[06:58] <nickrud> MrObvious: and only one command: try looking at man dpkg , and searchinf for remove-reinstreq
[06:59] <kishan_> nooo i am into sceince life sceince grad raviusa26
[06:59] <MrObvious> nickrud: Cool. I might once I get some sleep.
[06:59] <MrObvious> :\
[06:59] <Jordan_U> visioncig, I would assume that a large percentage of the 1,045 people in this channel are accessing it via wireless ( myself included )
[06:59] <nickrud> MrObvious: it's one of the more important commands, and you'll have need of it here regularly ;)
[06:59] <raviusa26> kishan_: I am a computer science student and I also do a lot of computer programming. I did a lot of IT work as well as and started my own company doing consulting.
[07:00] <raviusa26> kishan_: www.sunshinetechsolutions.com Sunshine Technology Solutions, LLC
[07:00] <virtuoussin13> sorry, but yeah, this is kinda annoying, I only updated recently, within the paste week, and after restarting, my sound card wasn't even detected, much less work
[07:00] <MrObvious> nickrud: I'm used to apt-get more than dpkg myself. :\
[07:00] <kishan_> ooh nice all the best for you project raviusa26
[07:00] <MrObvious> raviusa26: It's cool that you can program like that.
[07:00] <nickrud> MrObvious: likewise; it's about the only dpkg command I use for actual package management. But anyway.
[07:00] <raviusa26> kishan_: I love programming. It fills all the empty spaces in my life.
[07:01] <cheebz88> GOT IT
[07:01] <cheebz88> that took a hot minute
[07:01] <raviusa26> MrObvious: Yep. I have been doing it for too long now.
[07:01] <gynix> anyone have ndisgtk fail to load
[07:01] <MrObvious> raviusa26: I'm not a good programmer. I've tried.
[07:01] <virtuoussin13> I'm using an hda intel soundcard if that matters
[07:01] <MrObvious> cheebz88: Great.
[07:01] <cheebz88> MrObvious: ahh programming lore
[07:01] <kishan_> raviusa26, its nice are u writing any code for open source
[07:01] <MrObvious> virtuoussin13: What matters is that your thing isn't working. :\
[07:01] <raviusa26> MrObvious: It is ok. Not everyone can be a programmer but I am sure there are other things you can do. How about IT?
[07:02] <MrObvious> raviusa26: Yup. I've got an AS in that already. :D
[07:02] <raviusa26> kishan_: No. ColdFusion is more web oriented.
[07:02] <nickrud> gynix: it looks like you'll have to fall back on the command line ndiswrapper command
[07:02] <gynix> that works fine
[07:02] <raviusa26> MrObvious: I got an AS as well in Computer Science.
[07:02] <gynix> but the window was working

[07:02] <kishan_> ooh i c raviusa26 good opensource needs some hard core programers like you
[07:02] <gynix> h/o ill remove the driver i added see if it fixes it
[07:03] <bullgard4> I read in forum.ubuntuusers.de "Our Notebook Barebones are from Compal and Quanta. Quanta produced the Powerbook G4 and the 17 inch iMac." What is a 'notebook barebone'?
[07:03] <makuseru>  hi, im having a problem with audacity, when i try to playback somthing it says "Error while opening sound device, Please check the output device and sample rate" what does this mean and how can i fix this
[07:04] <cc> I just got a laptop with (what I believe) is an Atheros wireless card. lspci calls it "Atheros Communications, Inc. Unknown device 001c (rev 01)", but "ifconfig" doesn't see any ath interface at all, only an eth0 wired interface and lo. Grepping through dmesg for "ath" returns the following lines: http://rafb.net/p/HpoXKM44.html   Anyone know what's going on? Thanks in advance :)
[07:04] <Jordan_U> bullgard4, I assume this is translated from German?
[07:04] <nickrud> bullgard4: sounds like marketing speak to me
[07:04] <Extravert> MrObvious: How would I add the package to the database?
[07:04] <cc> The restricted-modules package IS installed
[07:04] <kishan_> nickrud, what does it mean what does one want
[07:04] <Jordan_U> cc, Does restricted Manager see it?
[07:04] <cc> Jordan_U, yes
[07:04] <okasa> has anyone installed the libdvdcss library manually to fix dvd playbacks?
[07:04] <overclucker> cc, use iwconfig for wireless
[07:05] <MrObvious> Extravert: I think it's time to do that command nickrud suggested. I'm tired. :\
[07:05] <Jordan_U> !anyone | okasa
[07:05] <cc> Jobias, it sees "Atheros Hardware Access Layer"\
[07:05] <ubotu> okasa: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:05] <nickrud> kishan_: um, if I picked that up right, most people are users, not stupid :)
[07:05] <onats> how do i know if my built-in memory card reader is supported in ubuntu?
[07:05] <Jordan_U> cc, And does enabling it make the card work?
[07:05] <cc> overclucker, iwconfig also only sees eth0 and lo
[07:05] <bullgard4> nickrud: Even though marketing speak, this term seems to convey a meaning.
[07:05] <ubuntu__> ubuntu wont load
[07:05] <gynix> fixed it
[07:05] <cc> Jordan_U, nope, it's been enabled from the very start.
[07:05] <Jordan_U> onats, Can you try the LiveCD?
[07:05] <kishan_> yes nickrud i am user too
[07:05] <nickrud> bullgard4: maybe sort of like dell or gateway, just a shell you add options to?
[07:06] <cellofellow> I unblacklisted the r818x wireless driver, and now my WPC11v4 is working without ndiswrapper. It has the name wlan0. Only thing is, when I try to connect to my network, it cuts the last letter off of the essid.
[07:06] <gynix> somehow a rouge driver called modules.ndiswrapper got in there i removed all the drivers and the gui came back alive
[07:06] <MrObvious> onats: Google your cardname and type linux in google.com
[07:06] <gynix> and reinstalled the windows drivers
[07:06] <Jordan_U> cc, Can you pastebin the output of "iwconfig" ?
[07:06] <MrObvious> cellofellow: So add another letter to the essid beyond what you type in.
[07:06] <bullgard4> nickrud: Ah! this makes sense to me. --  Thank you very much.
[07:06] <cellofellow> hmmm, maybe
[07:06] <nickrud> kishan_: likewise. Was a programmer years ago, though.
[07:06] <cellofellow> MrObvious: your nickname is great.
[07:07] <MrObvious> :)
[07:07] <cc> Jordan_U, sure, but it's very boring: http://rafb.net/p/aay1ve55.html
[07:07] <Extravert> MrObvious: I tried all of the commands.  the deb file was a failed install and it cant be removed because it was never installed.
[07:07] <virtuoussin13> yeah
[07:07] <nickrud> Extravert:   sudo dpkg -r --force-remove-reinstreq <package>
[07:08] <ubuntu__> i need help, ubuntu wont load after i tried to dual boot
[07:08] <cellofellow> MrObvious: BINGO! That did the trick. Yipppeeeee! I had a lot less trouble with the wifi card than I expected. Sweet.
[07:08] <MrObvious> :)
[07:08] <Jordan_U> ubuntu__, Did you install windows after Ubuntu?

[07:11] <kishan_> what is xrdb is like zombue in my system monitor
[07:11] <ubuntu__> Kishan and Jordan_U i installed windows afterward, and also reinstalled grub, i did however delete my linux swap, is that bad?
[07:11] <gynix> question how do i change which entry grub defaults to using
[07:11] <nickrud> bullgard4: the kernel
[07:12] <bullgard4> nickrud: Ok. I will enquire.
[07:12] <kishan_> no its not ubuntu__ if u just reinstalled grub now u should able to boot into ubuntu
[07:12] <nickrud> bullgard4: dmesg is the messages the kernel produces while it's booting
[07:12] <virtuoussin13> and goodmorning MrObvious
[07:13] <DBeta> Hello Ubuntuians.
[07:13] <ZAKhan> how do i install a bin file?
[07:13] <nickrud> kishan_: X server resource database utility
[07:13] <ubuntu__> Kishan, well when i try, it freezes, and when i try to do it in safe mode, it freezes at the message "Begin: waiting for root file system"
[07:13] <bullgard4> nickrud: I know dmesg. I have read dmesg output, and dmesg.txt indeed contains a magic number.
[07:13] <kishan_> what is that nickrud
[07:13] <nickrud> bullgard4: ah, sorry. Sometimes I get over specific
[07:14] <kishan_> ubuntu__, how much time u waiting let is boot completely donnot switch off
[07:14] <Jordan_U> ZAKhan, What are you trying to install?
[07:15] <nickrud> kishan_: it's a low level utility used by X to pass information to it's clients; see man xrdb for the gory details
[07:15] <ZAKhan> Jordan_U, helix player
[07:15] <ubuntu__> KIshan ok ill leave it to go soon then, ty
[07:15] <Extravert> nickrud: I tried all commands to fix that broken package.  I think the package was corrupted.  How would I manually add it?
[07:15] <nickrud> Extravert: do you still have the deb?
[07:15] <virtuoussin13> I'm not so great with kernel stuff, by the time ubuntu has booted, the soundcard isn't detected
[07:15] <kishan_> thanks nickrud
[07:15] <Extravert> nickrud: yes
[07:16] <virtuoussin13> I see something at boot about alsa complaining it can't find a soundcard, but that goes by pretty quickly, and I have no idea why its happening
[07:16] <nickrud> Extravert: have you tried  sudo dpkg -i on it again?
[07:16] <DBeta> This i810 bug is really pissing me off. In case you guys haven't dealt with it or read about it, it came in a recent update. It causes the i810 graphical chipset to draw(or rather not draw) a black band on the screen, covering up anything under it, making the display almost useless.
[07:16] <bullgard4> nickrud: No, you are not over-specific, I believe. I still would like to know more about these magic numbers, and I will endeavor now  to learn more about them because I have a resume-from-suspend-to-RAM problem.
[07:16] <Extravert> nickrud: I tried installing it many times all failed.
[07:16] <nickrud> Extravert: bear with me, I gotta go thru a checklist

[07:26] <nickrud> Kalivos: that is, if you have most any ati card
[07:26] <ratffno> stunatra: how to login to yahoo chat rooms using gaim ?
[07:26] <Plantain> thanks nickrud
[07:26] <Mexel> pie
[07:26] <stunatra> ratffno, go to TOOLS > ROOM LIST
[07:26] <nickrud> virtuoussin13: if you run the previous kernel, do you still have sound?
[07:26] <overclucker> cheebz88, join #winehq for wine issues
[07:27] <Kalivos> nickrud: I was following this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=488385 until it said that I can relogin (prior to compiz install). And it's looking fuzzy at this point :-/
[07:27] <kidbuntu> when downloading then installing applications usually they also download and install the necessary sub requirements right?
[07:27] <punsad> kidbuntu: yup
[07:27] <cheebz88> overclucker: they are assholes, they kicked me after they sent me a broken link and i simply said it was broken
[07:27] <ratffno> stunatra: awesome thanks buddy
[07:27] <punsad> kidbuntu: that's the beauty of apt-get
[07:27] <virtuoussin13> that's a good question, I don't think so, because I don't think a new kernel was released recently (I could be very wrong) it only started after installed some updates, and as far as I can tell the updates only effected network protocols and what not
[07:27] <stunatra> ratffno, you're welcome ;)
[07:28] <overclucker> cheebz88, that's a little harsh = \
[07:28] <nickrud> Kalivos: I'm not sure what the problem would be; the people in #ubuntu-effects or #compiz-fusion or #beryl know a lot more about this stuff
[07:28] <Plantain> anyone know what exactly the "ati" driver is? (What project?)
[07:29] <cheebz88> overclucker: yeah, so is kicking someone that's just looking for a little help and not being rude.  i feel like it's the least i could say for them
[07:29] <kidbuntu> punsad: ok now here's the question. what if i reformatted and reinstalled ubuntu, and then i just copied all the files that goes straight to var/cache/........ and i installed the application again just using the sudo dpkg. will that work just fine like apt-get?
[07:29] <Moufou> the software ubuntu  require i lot memory and video ???
[07:29] <overclucker> cheebz88, , i meant what they did, lol
[07:29] <nickrud> virtuoussin13: ls /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image* -l will tell you when you last installed a kernel
[07:30] <rockets> Anybody know any video players that can use gstreamer OTHER then totem?
[07:30] <cheebz88> overclucker: oh lol, yea man its ridiculous
[07:30] <Plantain> What would be the preferred driver for a Radeon 9550? ati/radeon/fglrx?
[07:30] <virtuoussin13> alright
[07:30] <Kalivos> nickrud: I just noticed that the link you sent me requires older drivers. I'll try those. Thanks for your time.
[07:30] <punsad> kidbuntu: as long as you are using the same version of ubuntu
[07:30] <virtuoussin13> I'm on windows right now, let me restart here...
[07:30] <nickrud> Kalivos: hm, is that good time or bad time :)
[07:31] <olrrai> nickrud: I solved the problem: sudo nvidia-settings
[07:31] <Moufou> the software ubuntu requiere a lot memory and video ???
[07:31] <Kalivos> nickrud: Good time :)
[07:31] <kidbuntu> punsad. yes the 7.04. will it just automatically search the entire system for the necessary sub requirements that i also copied?
[07:31] <nickrud> olrrai: ah, the 55, 56, 57 problem?
[07:31] <Sonicadvance1> keeps saying my second NIC isn't ready and I'm not sure how to fix it
[07:31] <mike6546> how do you mount an .iso as if it were a cdrom?
[07:31] <punsad> kidbuntu: dpkg I don't think will do this.  Only apt-get
[07:31] <Moufou> the software ubuntu requiere a lot memory and video ???
[07:31] <olrrai> nickrud: yes!
[07:31] <nickrud> mike6546: sudo mount -o loop /dev/cdrom /mnt
[07:32] <nickrud> olrrai: I'll try to remember this time :)
[07:32] <punsad> dpkg should, however, complain of missing dependencies
[07:32] <olrrai> :)
[07:32] <Extravert> nickrud: http://pastebin.com/d14e18ee8
[07:32] <Moufou> the software ubuntu requiere a lot memory and video ???
[07:32] <nickrud> Moufou: 512M mem, and video cards, even old ones work
[07:33] <cheebz88> anybody know if kopete supports yahoo chat?
[07:33] <olrrai> see u later guys
[07:33] <punsad> Moufou: I'd have at least 512MB.  700MB+ would be better
[07:33] <Moufou> so if a have a 256  will work fine?
[07:33] <Moufou> memory
[07:33] <punsad> Moufou: use damnsmalllinux
[07:34] <ratffno> exit
[07:34] <punsad> Moufou: you can't expect to run all the bells and whistles with 256 MB of ram
[07:34] <kidbuntu> punsad: will it work fine with the apt-get command but the same procedure that i said. Lets say that i don't have an internet access but i do have the sub requirements somewhere in ubuntu or should i place it first to somewhere but using the "apt-get"
[07:34] <nickrud> Extravert: cd into the directory where the deb file is,  and type     sudo dpkg -i mfc44<tab> meaning hit the tab key, if you get a full file name you've found the file
[07:34] <Moufou> i have the cd today i rebot it same like i have windows xp or vista rigth???
[07:34] <dudeicles> how can I run bitchx in a window and not terminal?
[07:35] <nickrud> Moufou: yes, a complete desktop. Not like xp, though, better :)
[07:35] <alanhaggai> cheebz88, did you mean the IM or chat rooms?
[07:35] <cheebz88> alanhaggai: i just wanted to start up a voice chat with my friend, i think it's considered a room though
[07:35] <nickrud> Moufou: and 256 is not enough for ubuntu. Not really
[07:35] <punsad> kidbuntu: you are treading uncharted territory from what I've ever done.  I just know that I download .deb files and install them sometimes with dpkg -i  and I know that this does go as smoothly as when I do apt-get
[07:36] <nickrud> kidbuntu: yes, if the deb is in the archive, it will install just fine with apt-get
[07:37] <Moufou> ok yeah i will install onmy another laptop have 1 gb of memory  i jets want to know some inf to be safe i guest reboot like  vista and xp delete everything and star with ubunto
[07:37] <punsad> dudeicles: not sure what you mean.. why not have a terminal in a window?
[07:37] <OMEG1> can anyone please tell how i can make xmms play mp3s over a network
[07:37] <cheebz88> alanhaggai: any luck?
[07:37] <alanhaggai> cheebz88, sorry. No idea about it.
[07:37] <kidbuntu> nickrud: really awesome feature of ubuntu. Now i don't have to always worry whenever i'm having trouble of reinstalling ubuntu then downloading the whole applications again
[07:37] <punsad> OMEG1: I think there's a 'add url' button, isn't there?
[07:37] <the_padawan> hi all, i'm trying to use a NES emulator (mednafen) but i get no sound. I've tried two different emulator softwares. Amarok plays music just fine. This used to work. Any ideas?
[07:38] <cheebz88> anyone else know anything about starting up a yahoo voice chat using kopete?
[07:38] <cheebz88> or any other messaging client for that matter?
[07:38] <Moufou> nick ubunto have the xgl on it?
[07:38] <Moufou> or not
[07:38] <OMEG1> na and when i d click on the file, nothing happens
[07:39] <nickrud> kidbuntu: do a couple of things, though: look in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20archive , and change the maxage and maxsize , those control the size of the archive and might delete something you don't want to lose
[07:40] <nickrud> Extravert: haven't forgotten you :)
[07:40] <raviusa26> --> back
[07:40] <Moufou> thanks4 your help nick
[07:40] <nickrud> Extravert: are you using sudo ?
[07:41] <nickrud> Moufou: yes, xserver-xgl
[07:41] <Moufou> i will install the cd now and see
[07:41] <nickrud> Moufou: that one will have to downloaded from the net
[07:42] <Moufou> so dont come with the cd have to download from the server

[07:44] <ratffno> i am able to get the yahoo chat rooms listed but not able to join any yahoo chat room help me please
[07:44] <nickrud> Moufou: yw, and welcome to ubuntu
[07:44] <ratffno>  i am able to get the yahoo chat rooms listed but not able to join any yahoo chat room help me please. i use gaim.
[07:45] <nubuntunagger> NAGIOS help...
[07:45] <nubuntunagger> can i ask someone here..
[07:45] <stunatra> ratffno, I had the same trouble...
[07:45] <quaal> how do i save an epiphany session
[07:45] <stunatra> ratffno, you have to sign on the real Yahoo Messenger and verify your account before you can attend chats.
[07:45] <ratffno> stunatra: yes rooms r there. but it is not joining any chat room
[07:46] <nubuntunagger> noboy uses nagios?
[07:46] <Extravert> nickrud: Sry was away.  I use sudo.
[07:46] <stunatra> Sign on Yahoo MSGR on Windows, join a chat, and it will ask you to verify your account, then you should be able to join Yahoo Chats on GAIM.
[07:46] <ratffno> stunatra: how to sign in to the real yahoo msnger
[07:46] <nickrud> Extravert: E: Couldn't lock list directory..are you root?
[07:46] <stunatra> on Windows or Virtual Machine.
[07:46] <ratffno> stunatra: i use windows , ubuntu on dual boot
[07:47] <stunatra> Yahoo for Linux is terribly outdated. I don't even think it supports chat rooms.
[07:47] <Extravert> nickrud: I know it says that but I ALWAYs use sudo to get root
[07:47] <stunatra> Well, reboot into Windows and sign on Yahoo MSGR
[07:47] <ratffno> stunatra: i can't use both win and linx at the same time
[07:47] <stunatra> You can using Virtual Machines lol
[07:47] <stunatra> You only have to verify your account once and then you're all set
[07:47] <nickrud> Extravert: ls in the terminal shows you the file mfc44...deb ?
[07:48] <ratffno> stunatra: how do i use virtual machines
[07:48] <Extravert> nickrud: yes
[07:48] <stunatra> It's not necessary to use VM, in your case, ratffno.
[07:48] <n2diy> Can I create a link in a gedit file, that will open an other gedit file?
[07:48] <ratffno> stunatra: ok then how do i login to yahoo chat rooms. pls help me. thanks.
[07:49] <Moufou> if i install the software ubuntu what about antivirus and firewall?
[07:49] <d4rkmonkey> Moufou don't really need antivirus or firewall in Ubuntu, it comes secure.
[07:49] <stunatra> ratffno, reboot your PC, boot into Windows. Sign on Yahoo Messenger in Windows and join a chat room, it will ask you to verify your account and then you should be all set.
[07:49] <n2diy> Moufou: firewall is installed, and you don't need to worry about window's virii
[07:50] <ratffno> stunatra: i know this works in windows. is it not possible in linux ?
[07:50] <nickrud> Extravert: ok do this:    sudo apt-get install java-package    .  java-package is small, so it'll be quick.  Paste the complete run on the pastebin
[07:50] <stunatra> ratffno, the only way you can get into chats on GAIM is to verify your acct using Yahoo MSGR on Windows... but you will only have to verify it ONCE
[07:51] <n2diy> Can I create a link in a gedit file, that will open an other gedit file?
[07:51] <Moufou> lololo ok cool so to install the xgl  on ubuntu i have to go to a diferent web page and dowload it from there
[07:51] <nickrud> n2diy: no, it's only a text editor
[07:51] <Jordan_U> n2diy, Like a hyperlink?
[07:51] <nickrud> Moufou: no. Read that link I gave you
[07:52] <n2diy> Jordan_U: Yes, and roger nickrud.
[07:52] <ZAKhan> how do i make helix as default player for web links?
[07:52] <FairyPrincess> hai...........................
[07:53] <overclucker> roger, roger, what's out vector victor?
[07:53] <nickrud> ZAKhan: open the firefox preferences, go to the content section, and file types are at the bottom
[07:54] <FairyPrincess> hai..................................
[07:54] <Moufou> ok cool thanks
[07:55] <nickrud> FairyPrincess: ...................hai
[07:55] <mzuverink> I have a ac97 modem on my laptop, can anyone point me in the direction of getting it working?
[07:55] <ZAKhan> nickrud, rm or ram is not listed there?
[07:56] <nickrud> ZAKhan: try the two RA 's & SMIL
[07:56] <nickrud> ZAKhan: I'm suprised also
[07:57] <FairyPrincess> woi leh gabung ga?
[07:57] <n2diy> no
[07:58] <quaal> is iceweasel supposed to be available in the feisty repos ?
[07:58] <Extravert> nickrud: http://pastebin.com/d7c1bc2a
[07:58] <Flannel> quaal: firefox is
[07:58] <quaal> Flannel, firefox sucks
[07:59] <nickrud> Extravert: there would be a bunch of other stuff, apt does a lot of things before calling dpkg
[07:59] <sidu> Help: tried apt-get install php5-gd -- but get this msg: php5-gd: depends on : libt1-5 (>= 5.0.2) - package can not be installed
[07:59] <Jordan_U> quaal, Because it has a trademarked icon it sucks?
[07:59] <Extravert> nickrud: thats all
[07:59] <Caydel_> hi all
[07:59] <Caydel_> I am having some troubles
[07:59] <quaal> Jordan_U, what ?
[07:59] <sidu> more ref on http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/libs/libt1-5 -- but i do not know howto install
[07:59] <quaal> is iceweasel not different than firefox ?
[07:59] <idiot> i've installed realtime-lsm (running feisty) and try to 'modprobe realtime' but saying that realtime not found...is this how i enable realtime support and check that its running?
[07:59] <nickrud> Extravert: then you have a problem :)
[08:00] <Caydel_> fresh Feisty install, however, after logging in, GNome never fully loads
[08:00] <Extravert> nickrud: =(
[08:00] <Flannel> quaal: correct
[08:00] <Caydel_> it hangs halfway
[08:00] <Jordan_U> quaal, Think about the name :)
[08:00] <Caydel_> does anyone know why this is? Or how to fix it?
[08:00] <quaal> correct it is not different ?
[08:00] <quaal> k
[08:00] <Flannel> quaal: They are identical except branding
[08:00] <FairyPrincess> woi.........................
[08:00] <quaal> so i guess i'm still using epiphany then
[08:00] <Jordan_U> quaal, It has a few differences but they are very minor
[08:00] <quaal> firefox using 150mb ram is unacceptable
[08:01] <Flannel> quaal: iceweasel would do the same.
[08:01] <Extravert> nickrud: At least I got my printer working =/ at the cost of my installation system..
[08:01] <nickrud> Extravert: It's possible that it's the dpkg status file that's fubar'd ; I don't know enough about apt & dpkg to mess with that remotely. this was a lexmark?
[08:01] <quaal> Flannel, k
[08:01] <Flannel> sidu: which repositories are you using?  (the url to the repos itself)
[08:01] <Jordan_U> Flannel, iceweasel does have a few differences, it won't suggest installation of proprietary plugins for instance
[08:01] <Flannel> Jordan_U: For the differences he's looking for, theyre the same.
[08:02] <sidu> hi Flannel : it took me half day to refresh the source -- still got this err :(
[08:02] <Extravert> nickrud: lexmark?
[08:02] <OMEG1> s there a way to make ctrl-alt-del work like windows in ubuntu 7.047
[08:02] <nickrud> Extravert: a lot of lexmark drivers break dpkg; but not this bad.
[08:02] <sidu> Flannel: what is repositories ?
[08:02] <Flannel> sidu: You've got something funky going on, that's for sure.  Do you have anything in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/?  Any files in that folder?
[08:02] <Flannel> sidu: pstebin your sources.list (again)
[08:02] <sidu> Flannel: let me check ...
[08:03] <Extravert> nickrud: this was from the brothers official site
[08:03] <nickrud> Extravert: so were the lexmarks
[08:03] <Extravert> nickrud: o
[08:03] <Moniker42> can i hotplug a sound card/
[08:03] <Moniker42> *card?
[08:03] <sidu> Flannel: : there is nothing in above dir
[08:04] <Flannel> sidu: Alright, that's expected (and makes things simpler). pastebin your sources.list
[08:04] <orbisvicis> !webdav
[08:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about webdav - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:04] <nickrud> quaal: it's only 106 on my machine :)
[08:04] <sidu> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36760/
[08:04] <quaal> nickrud, only.
[08:04] <OMEG1> A music messaging session has been requested. Please click the MM icon to accept.
[08:05] <Flannel> sidu: Ah.  I see your problem.  You removed the regular feisty repos
[08:05] <nickrud> quaal: I used epiphany when I was running 256M, with more I don't see an issue, except maybe an aesthetic one
[08:06] <winbond> when i min/max the windows there are black bars around it, how do i get rid of it,  and how do i get rid of tooltips?
[08:06] <sidu> Flannel: ? i did not do anything -- just use the package-manager to change source to default -- and it took me 5-6 hours ... :
[08:06] <quaal> nickrud, i have 1gb
[08:06] <quaal> with firefox running there is a considerable slowing down
[08:06] <sidu> Flannel: so what should i do now ?
[08:06] <Flannel> sidu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36761/
[08:06] <Flannel> sidu: use that one.  You changed feisty to feisty-security, instead of adding
[08:07] <Ste-Foy> :)
[08:07] <Ste-Foy> kubuntu
[08:07] <sidu> Flannel: ah?!! dear me -- i missed your point in the am -- changed instead of adding :(
[08:07] <Flannel> sidu: That's fine.  This updated sources.list should fix your problems
[08:08] <sidu> Flannel: ok - i m updating now - hope not another 5 hours ;;; :(
[08:09] <LukeEkblad> Hello, has anyone ever heard of Swap Boost? If so, how do I get this and make it work?

[08:10] <Flannel> sidu: sudo apt-get update
[08:10] <yigal> Does anyone know if there is a way to listen to www.pandor.com on the command line like last.fm?
[08:10] <nickrud> winbond:  in gconf-editor: for the panel, /apps/panel/global/tooltips_enabled ,
[08:10] <yigal> sidu: sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
[08:10] <yigal> :)
[08:10] <Flannel> yigal: he's trying to install stuff, not upgrade anything.
[08:10] <yigal> Flannel: ah
[08:11] <sidu> yigal ? ?? i already typed -- seems ....
[08:11] <yigal> sidu: just came on board sorry dude
[08:11] <sidu> yigal : :)
[08:11] <yigal> nickrud: where dude?
[08:12] <linux_stu> can someone give me a link to a website that would describe how to install a .tar.gz archive?
[08:12] <nickrud> yigal: in metacity, there's keys for moving windows to the side & top of the screen, and the corners
[08:12] <nickrud> iirc, those were some things he listed that he hated not having
[08:13] <yigal> nickrud: true that, I have moved on from GNOME and KDE but the keybindings in metacity are actually pretty good as far as things go
[08:13] <Flannel> LukeEkblad: tar.gz is just a compression/etc type, there are a number of different ways to install one, based on whats inside of it.  This is a probable method htoug
[08:13] <winbond> nickrud, did it, but the tooltips are still there, do i need to reboot?
[08:13] <scguy318> linux_stu: I can't think of a link, but I can tell you how to
[08:13] <LukeEkblad> Um, how do I "Run" somthing?
[08:13] <marciowsd3> UIA
[08:13] <Flannel> !compile | LukeEkblad
[08:13] <ubotu> LukeEkblad: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:13] <nickrud> winbond: try killall gnome-panel in a terminal
[08:13] <linux_stu> ok scguy318 i have the file VMware-workstation-6.0.0-45731.i386.tar
[08:13] <nickrud> winbond: it'll start right back up
[08:13] <sidu> Flannel: sudo apt-get update -- finished now -- then what ?
[08:13] <linux_stu> scguy318, is it possible to install it through the package manager?
[08:13] <LukeEkblad> Flannel:  wait, i have to install somthing first?
[08:13] <koshaboi> When is Tribe6?
[08:13] <Flannel> sidu: install php5-gd
[08:13] <nickrud> yigal: I still miss sawfish sometimes
[08:14] <Flannel> LukeEkblad: what?
[08:14] <scguy318> linux_stu: if theres a pre-existing deb in the repo, then sure, otherwise, you can do checkinstall
[08:14] <scguy318> linux_stu: im assuming its a code tarball?
[08:14] <koshaboi> The release date for Tribe6 was September 6th, when is it coming out?
[08:14] <yigal> nickrud: I am a die-hard DWM user and fanboy :_
[08:14] <LukeEkblad> Flannel:  i have to install somthing to make swapboost work?
[08:14] <Flannel> koshaboi: Don't believe it is.  More info is probably available in #ubuntu+1
[08:14] <yigal> nickrud: s/:_/:)
[08:14] <sidu> Flannel: now happy now -- working :D
[08:14] <Flannel> LukeEkblad: That page gives step by step instructions
[08:14] <linux_stu> scguy318, i don't know.  check this out: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Workstation
[08:15] <nickrud> yigal: I'll have to look into it, I've been feeling in a rut. I'm thinking that having my hand held for a couple of years was nice, but ...
[08:15] <linux_stu> scguy318, is it safe to follow those instructions?  i have been told in the past to not install packages outside of the package manager?
[08:15] <AeroStick> hey ladies
[08:15] <scguy318> linux_stu: sure, why not?
[08:15] <sidu> Flannel: sometimes i wonder if i could have a ubuntu neighbour - so that - i can watch you and learn
[08:15] <sidu> :)
[08:15] <winbond> can you believe there are 72 security fixes for xp since sp2, hows that for a secure os?
[08:15] <AeroStick> I'm tired of re installing ubuntu, but won't give it up...
[08:15] <LukeEkblad> Flannel:  I dont get how to do it, can you tell me pleas?
[08:16] <linux_stu> scguy318, how would i go about uninstalling it then if it wasn't even registered in apt?
[08:16] <scguy318> winbond: XP is the most successful virus to date
[08:16] <scguy318> linux_stu: is there no uninstall script with the tarball?
[08:16] <linux_stu> hmm
[08:16] <linux_stu> i will see
[08:16] <Sonic1> I'm having some problems with Firestarter than I can not seem to fix, anyone able to help me with Firestarter?
[08:16] <Flannel> LukeEkblad: Theres steps on that page.  First put your USB in, then run `./swapboost.sh -n` and that's it.
[08:16] <winbond> AeroStick, why are u keep reinstalling
[08:16] <AeroStick> Have a serious graphic card problem: computer locks up when i open the screensaver control panel
[08:16] <sauvin> Sonic1, I'm running FireStarter; I'll help if I can but I make NO promises.
[08:17] <nickrud> lol, I'm not compiling my window manager just to change an option
[08:17] <LukeEkblad> Flannel:  ok, how do i run somthing>  I forgot
[08:17] <yigal> nickrud: DWM is the ultimate no hand holding but it has to be what you want, you know :) Its fast, and customizable more than pretty much any other window manager.
[08:17] <sidu> Flannel: haha -- i m working with GD now -- thanks many great great great :D :)
[08:17] <Flannel> sidu: glad you got it figured out
[08:17] <nickrud> yigal: I have no doubt :)
[08:17] <AeroStick> winbond, several reasons, most hardware i think, than my curiousity
[08:17] <Sonic1> sauvin, Well, right now, It seems Firestarter works fine as it doesn't come up with any errors, but my 360 I have hooked up to it can't get an IP
[08:17] <winbond> AeroStick, which video card?
[08:17] <sidu> thanks bye
[08:18] <AeroStick> f.ckin. gigabyte radeon 9550 (but 256mb memory) card
[08:18] <sauvin> What's a 360?
[08:18] <Flannel> LukeEkblad: open a terminal to the directory the script is in, chmod a+x swapboost.sh then ./swapboost.sh -n
[08:18] <DuClare> sauvin, xbox I assume
[08:18] <AeroStick> on a kt600 via motherboard
[08:18] <Sonic1> sauvin, It's an Xbox 360
[08:18] <sauvin> I can't help with xboxes.
[08:18] <alloy_> hey what's a good gnome app to encode mp3s?
[08:18] <Flannel> !cli | LukeEkblad
[08:18] <ubotu> LukeEkblad: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[08:18] <sauvin> alloy: from what source?
[08:18] <Flannel> LukeEkblad: that page has a good rundown, if you're looking to re-learn
[08:18] <alloy_> sauvin: cd
[08:19] <c_newbie> anyone know how to create raid 10?
[08:19] <Sonic1> eh, that's fine, It's probably just a problem with Firestarter though sauvin
[08:19] <AeroStick> winbond: i have a f.ckin. gigabyte radeon 9550 (but 256mb memory) card
[08:19] <alloy_> my daughter just got a cd, but the drive in her imac is stuffed :-)
[08:19] <AeroStick> winbond: 1.5 kingston ddr400 ram
[08:19] <winbond> AeroStick, so why wont u use the radeon?
[08:19] <sauvin> It might be, Sonic1. I don't know a damn thing about xboxes, what they are or how they work.
[08:19] <nickrud> allbert: grip or soundjuicer
[08:19] <nickrud> smack
[08:19] <linux_stu> scguy318, there is a file vmware-uninstall.pl
[08:19] <DuClare> Sonic1, well, it's probably blocking the 360's connection, you need to find out what ports or stuff the 360 needs and open / allow those ports and stuff
[08:19] <alloy_> nickrud: i guess that was for me :-) thanks i'd forgotten their names :-)
[08:20] <nickrud> alloy_: yw ;)
[08:20] <Sonic1> DuClare, It can't even gain a IP though
[08:20] <sauvin> Does it require dhcp?
[08:20] <AeroStick> winbond: well i suppose it's one of the reasons i needed to reinstall ubuntu as trying that part, so need a good hand to help..:)
[08:20] <DuClare> Sonic1, yes, I assume your firewall (which you start with firestarter) is simply blocking whatever the xbox needs to get an IP & connectivity. it's a matter of configuring your firewall properly..
[08:21] <AeroStick> winbond: i need to learn; what works for what... i'm getting better about it (learning) but need some more to make it stable..:)
[08:21] <winbond> AeroStick, there is a easy way to install the fglrx driver from the repos
[08:21] <scguy318> alloy_: Sound Juicer?
[08:21] <sahafeez> can anyone tell me if the driver for the 802.11b air port card on a ibook g3 is supported by wpa?
[08:21] <nickrud> alloy_: to do mp3's with soundjuicer, you might need to add a mode: see the very end of preferences in the help, the big red box
[08:21] <Textbook> somebody say something about Xbox?
[08:22] <Textbook> lol
[08:22] <AeroStick> winbond: can you help me about it, i don't want to do any steps wrong, all my (precious) files are stored in ext3 partitions, don't want to lose them, and don't want to waste my time nonsencely anymore... (PLEASE)..:(
[08:22] <winbond> !fglrx | AeroStick
[08:22] <ubotu> AeroStick: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:22] <ubuntu23> is it possible to install a tar.gz archive through apt somehow?
[08:22] <scguy318> !compiling | ubuntu23
[08:22] <ubotu> ubuntu23: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:22] <scguy318> ubuntu23: and then checkinstall
[08:22] <yigal> alloy_: crip, only because of the name - no its actually a very good cli ripper for cd's
[08:22] <nalpha> guys, how to install ldap in ubuntu? what's kind of package?
[08:23] <ubuntu23> thanks scguy318
[08:23] <scguy318> ubuntu23: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall
[08:24] <AeroStick> winbond: i have a card which everybody knows called ati radeon 9550, but it's slightly different from other 9550's; because it has 256 memory and it's gigabyte card, which created for overclocking in xp...
[08:24] <yigal> scguy318: there just has to be something better than checkinstall
[08:24] <onats> ubuntu usb
[08:24] <ThE> ja...
[08:24] <AeroStick> winbond: so i have to be careful about it, because i'm reallh tired of installing ubuntu again and again...:(
[08:25] <nickrud> nalpha: slapd is the ldap server
[08:25] <LukeEkblad> Flannel:  when I run swapboost command, do i run it in the terminal or what?
[08:25] <AeroStick> winbond: r u there?
[08:25] <Moniker42> can i hotplug a sound card?
[08:25] <ThE> don't overclock it...
[08:25] <nickrud> nalpha: you might want to run apt-cache search openldap, see if you need any of the utils
[08:25] <nalpha> nickrud: and what's package that I need to build a complete LDAP server?
[08:25] <yigal> winbond: why are you installing an ldap server?
[08:25] <winbond> AeroStick, how is it any different , ram size doesnt matter
[08:25] <scguy318> Moniker42: if of the USB variety sure
[08:25] <nickrud> nalpha: see above :)
[08:25] <nalpha> !ldap
[08:25] <ubotu> LDAP is the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. For more information and installation instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer
[08:26] <Extravert> nickrud: hmm dpkg seems broken.  It says that im missing an action... sudo dpkg -r <file>
[08:26] <cew_chuby> ria
[08:26] <nalpha> nickrud: okey thanx
[08:26] <winbond> yigal, im not
[08:26] <Moniker42> scguy318, umm.... PCI? :)
[08:26] <AeroStick> winbond: okay, then let me tell one thing, maybe could be helpful; i could install the ati drivers by myself from ati's official site with some help from ubuntu documentation
[08:27] <nickrud> Extravert: doesn't sound good, you're right. I'm decent with apt & dpkg, but your error messages are things I've never seen
[08:27] <scguy318> Moniker42: then probably hotplugging it would fail and fry your comp
[08:27] <AeroStick> it was ok, but the 3d support never appear out, and even watching a movie were a torture...
[08:27] <scguy318> Moniker42: internal devices cannot be hotplugged else fail
[08:27] <winbond> AeroStick, go here,  it tells u exactly what to do https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[08:27] <cew_chuby> fedytrfkhlok
[08:27] <Moniker42> scguy318, yes i didn't think so - but i can't be bothered rebooting =\
[08:27] <cew_chuby> hukygiuyboi;
[08:29] <Extravert> nickrud: maybe I just uncovered some bugs
[08:29] <LukeEkblad> Flannel:   are you sure i dont have to download somthing?  All i do is run ./swapboost.sh -n?   In the terminal or how do i run it?
[08:29] <nickrud> Extravert: no, probably that package trashed some database ;)
[08:29] <winbond> AeroStick, which version of ubuntu r u using?
[08:29] <AeroStick> winbond: i've been dealing with them almost for a month... i live in turkey, means english is not my main language, but probably as you see it's not hard for me to understand what i read....:(
[08:29] <Extravert> nickrud: Oh noes
[08:30] <jesson> how do i make an iso file from my my /media/cdrom0/ ? is there a command i can use??
[08:30] <csh> da jia hao
[08:30] <jesson>  how do i make an iso file from my my /media/cdrom0/ ? is there a command i can use??
[08:30] <zhanx> !media

[08:30] <scguy318> jesson: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=isofile.iso bs=4096?
[08:30] <jesson> wat??/
[08:30] <Extravert> nickrud: I need to find a way to make dpkg forget I ever had that package.
[08:30] <scguy318> jesson: thats the command
[08:30] <AeroStick> winbond: i have feisty fawn, automatically updated yesterday night.(..again and again again and again and again...)
[08:30] <jesson> ill just write it?? and where would the output iso file be stored??
[08:30] <scguy318> jesson: in the current directory of the shell
[08:31] <zhanx> crap whats the ! for non free codec at medibuntu or soemthing like that again
[08:31] <jesson> and where is that?
[08:31] <nickrud> scguy318: any particular reason to use 4096, I've been using 1024
[08:31] <zhanx> !codecs
[08:31] <scguy318> nickrud: probably not, thats the value I like

[08:31] <zhanx> there is its
[08:31] <LukeEkblad> you there flannel?
[08:31] <scguy318> jesson: pwd in the Terminal
[08:31] <rathel> Is there away to enable/disable the screen saver on the command line?
[08:31] <scguy318> jesson: for a GUI way, I think mebbe Acetone or something
[08:32] <scguy318> jesson: AcetoneISO2
[08:32] <yigal> rathel: yes but I don't use gnomescreensaver anymore, but I am sure there is a way :)
[08:32] <jesson> scguy ? u play sC? can u explain further wat pws in terminal means???
[08:32] <chuy_max> excuse me, how can I search text files that contain "string" in them?
[08:32] <AeroStick> winbond: i also need to say that, now (with a new installed feisty fawn) "the desktop effects" seems to work, but when you start shaking the windows with the mouse (mean just moving) there are artifacts on the screen (like a part of window is staying on the desktop even you move it outta there) and then system locks up again, and then you have to press the reset button on the computer case..:(
[08:32] <Lo_Pan> grep string file.txt
[08:32] <yigal> chuy_max: grep
[08:33] <yigal> chuy_max: grep files string
[08:33] <scguy318> jesson: pwd = command in the Terminal to find the current directory of the shell, if you want to change that type cd "wherever"
[08:33] <chuy_max> yigal, so grepping the whole text?, isn't any easier way to do it with find?
[08:33] <chuy_max> yigal, grepping the entire directory, sorry
[08:33] <yigal> chuy_max: find is used to find a file, not a string in a file
[08:33] <onats> does anyone have any experience booting ubuntu from a usb on a powerbook G4?
[08:33] <scguy318> jesson: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/path/to/isofile.iso bs=4096
[08:33] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, Compiz breaking should not require you to pull the plug
[08:33] <hengha> how come my kubuntu feisty did not auto-mount the cd or usb devices when media plugged ?
[08:34] <yigal> chuy_max: just grep a directory, no worries, it should work fine
[08:34] <ubuntu23> if i can't do ./configure with the .tar.gz of a package (it has its own install.pl file), is it possible at all to install it through the package manager?
[08:34] <winbond> AeroStick, install the fglrx driver, it probably wont help , if not brake things, but new ati driver is coming out soon, should be much better
[08:34] <AeroStick> Jordan_U: no, it should, because nothing works (ctrl+alt+backspace, or anything).
[08:34] <scguy318> ubuntu23: what is the package?
[08:34] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, Did you try switching to a console with ctrl+alt+F1 ( F7 to get back to X ) ?
[08:34] <ubuntu23> scguy318, vmware workstation
[08:35] <yigal> chuy_max: my  bad its, using the man file, grep patter file(s)
[08:35] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, Or alt+sysrq+k ?
[08:35] <nickrud> rathel: gnome-screensaver-command --inhibit
[08:35] <AeroStick> Jordan_U: yes i tried, but it does not matter, because i think it becomes a hardware lock up
[08:35] <ant1> btw, my country changed the time yesterday because of DST, why didn't Ubuntu update my time ?
[08:35] <nickrud> rathel: I thought it might be worth looking up for later ;)
[08:35] <ant1> my country changed the time yesterday because of DST, why didn't Ubuntu update my time ?
[08:36] <AeroStick> Jordan_U, winbond: like, overclocking the card more than it's capacity, you know?
[08:36] <chuy_max> yigal, I thought there must be an easier way, I have to make a long command to know the file that contains the command
[08:36] <chuy_max> *that contains the string
[08:36] <Chavao> !ops Rapha_
[08:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ops rapha_ - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:36] <Rapha_> !ops  Chavao
[08:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ops  chavao - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:36] <scguy318> ubuntu23: hmm, not sure about managing in APT, prob would take a bit of work
[08:36] <Extravert> nickrud: Found the solution: Remove the suspected files from /var/lib/dpkg/info/ and do a "sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq <package>"
[08:36] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, I have had freezes where nothing I could do locally gave any response but I got it back connecting with ssh
[08:36] <Rapha_> Te, brazileiro ae?
[08:36] <nickrud> Extravert: great! (have to remember that)
[08:36] <ubuntu23> scguy318, i guess i will have faith in its uninstall script if i ever need to do that
[08:37] <scguy318> ubuntu23: alrighty, apologies for not being able to assist more
[08:37] <ubuntu23> scguy318, no problem
[08:37] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, It is not easy to completely freeze a *nix box :)
[08:37] <AeroStick> Jordan_U: ssh? (i don't know what is it yet..:( )
[08:37] <yigal> chuy_max: what is the situation?
[08:37] <Rapha_> Sabiam que o Ubuntu e muito engraado?
[08:37] <nickrud> ubuntu23: you know that vmware-server is available from the feisty-commercial repo?
[08:37] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, Do you have more than one computer?
[08:37] <AeroStick> maybe the freezing thing is my computer, not the OS
[08:37] <ant1> Hello ?
[08:37] <AeroStick> yes, i have a notebook of my beyonce's
[08:38] <Rapha_> O programa 'apt-get' no est instalado atualmente. Voc pode instal-lo digitando:
[08:38] <Rapha_> apt-get install apt
[08:38] <Rapha_> bash: apt-get: comando no encontrado
[08:38] <Rapha_> haiuahuia
[08:38] <LukeEkblad> I just opened open office and for some reason theres no icons, only words
[08:38] <yigal> bad bad Rapha_
[08:38] <Jordan_U> !ssh | AeroStick
[08:38] <ubotu> AeroStick: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[08:38] <ubuntu23> nickrud, yeah i know. how much better is workstation?  maybe it would be worth going for server
[08:38] <munki> Rapha_: wow! - english please ?
[08:38] <LukeEkblad> how do i fix this?
[08:38] <AeroStick> Jordan_U: but it has a f.cking vista, and i can't use ubuntu on that (sellers pigs, hp, warrantied system, etc...)
[08:38] <tonyyarusso> munki: command not found, presumably
[08:38] <Rapha_> munki: is a comand Ubuntu of my friende
[08:39] <tonyyarusso> AeroStick: Ubuntu should have no effect on warranty status, afaik.
[08:39] <c_newbie> hello, which one is faster for r/w, is it raid 0 or raid 10
[08:39] <scguy318> Rapha_: #ubuntu-pt?
[08:39] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, ssh ( especially with -X ) is one of my favorite features
[08:39] <pupi120290> !hi
[08:39] <AeroStick> tonyyarusso: i know, but it's not my subject know..:)
[08:39] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:39] <nickrud> ubuntu23: Can't you try workstation for a limited time?
[08:39] <AeroStick> Jordan_U: yes, listening to you to hear a little about it...
[08:40] <Rapha_> Where you from?
[08:40] <ubuntu23> nickrud, i already have already used workstation.  i just haven't used server
[08:41] <AeroStick> Jordan_U: okay, deal, who will connect me from an open port from my modem to my computer to help, or get over with that crashing situation?
[08:41] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, ssh lets you run commands on one machine from another, like VNC but without the overhead
[08:41] <nickrud> ubuntu23: it's only an apt-get away for testing
[08:41] <ubuntu23> yeah
[08:41] <anais1> ciao
[08:42] <nickrud> ubuntu23: I'd be interested in your experiences ;)
[08:42] <gyaresu> Hey folks. Anyone got an idea why there is no /tmp/dbus-*randomsting* socket for apps to connect to. I have dbus daemon running http://pastebin.com/m7829970b
[08:42] <AeroStick> Jordan_U: oh, cool, ! you mean, now i have to learn how to connect my ubuntu from a vista... come on!
[08:42] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, And it is very secure and also has hundreds of other uses ( transferring files, getting through firewalls ... )
[08:42] <ubuntu23> nickrud, i am configuring my system to dual boot both windows xp and xubuntu, and be able to virtualize both from the other
[08:42] <hangthedj_server> what is the name of the new ubuntu users site, not the ubuntu-users.org but the ubunteros or something like that.
[08:42] <nickrud> ubuntu23: the actual partitions, or just images?
[08:43] <ubuntu23> nickrud, the actual partitions
[08:43] <nickrud> that's geekdom :)
[08:43] <hangthedj_server> ubuntero.com
[08:43] <ubuntu23> nickrud, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Configure_a_dual_boot_windows_linux_to_be_able_to_open_each_os_in_vmware
[08:43] <b0ys9oTAlon3> #gim
[08:44] <bullgard4> What mechanism 'locks a kernel up'? As in /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/Documentation/sysrq.txt
[08:44] <ubuntu23> nickrud, the reason i'm doing it is that no linux user on my campus has been able to connect to the wireless network (crazy encryption, authentication, stuff like that), and i want to be able to use the wireless network while using linux
[08:45] <Montaro> ubuntu23: also look at http://www.vmware.com/download/server/open_source.html
[08:45] <AeroStick> guys: just tell me please: i know that there are two kind of graphic card drivers; one from ati's and other from ubuntu developers, right?
[08:45] <AeroStick> (for ati cards i mean)
[08:45] <nickrud> ubuntu23: that's a legitimate reason, but I don't think the reason has to be legit, it's just elegant
[08:45] <ubuntu23> lol yeah, it's pretty sweet
[08:46] <OMEG1> is there a way to snyc your home folder with a network folder, like a sort of backup, so everytime i shutdown/reboot/logoff it will run and sync the folders
[08:46] <nickrud> AeroStick: roughly true, yes
[08:46] <AeroStick> winbond, Jodan_U: you don't believe me, do you...:(
[08:46] <sahafeez> hey, am i reading this right no wpa on apple airport 802.11b cards in linux
[08:47] <AeroStick> nickrud: okay, when i install ubuntu; the graphic card driver is which from ubuntu developers, but/and there's a restricted driver from ati kept on system if i'd like to install, right?
[08:47] <Demon_King> what up all
[08:47] <gyaresu> sahafeez: if it's a 'b' card then probably not. Got a link?
[08:47] <gyaresu> Re-post: Hey folks. Anyone got an idea why there is no /tmp/dbus-*randomsting* socket for apps to connect to. I have dbus daemon running http://pastebin.com/m7829970b
[08:48] <nickrud> AeroStick: yes ...
[08:48] <ubuntu23> nickrud, can vmware server really be installed through apt?  i don't see it as an available package
[08:48] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, Basically, yes. Though the restricted driver isn't actually installed, Restricted Manager needs to have an internet connection to grab it for you
[08:49] <sahafeez> gyaresu - pretty much and link that you google for that has airport linux wpa
[08:49] <nickrud> ubuntu23: add deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main
[08:49] <sahafeez> it is strange as it is supported under os x.
[08:49] <ubuntu23> k thanks nickrud
[08:50] <AeroStick> Jordan_U, nickrud: that's all okay. just the first step, i typed: "glxinfo |grep direct" in terminal, and the result looks fine: "direct rendering: yes"
[08:50] <nickrud> AeroStick: then you have either the one from ubuntu or the one from the manufacturer's site
[08:50] <AeroStick> Jordan_U, nickrud: but, you see, this is a new ubuntu, i just installed it and done the updates (automatic)
[08:50] <Curs0r> !samba
[08:50] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[08:51] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, The open source driver supports 3D for many cards
[08:51] <nickrud> AeroStick: what card do you have?
[08:51] <psiko_> !nxserver
[08:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nxserver - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:52] <AeroStick> Jordan_U, nickrud: so now this is the driver from ubuntu developers. here's the serious matter: the computer compeletely locks up when i click above on system>preferences>screen saver and then one of the 3d screen savers name
[08:52] <AeroStick> nickrud: i have a GIGABYTE ATI Radeon 9550 (256mb)
[08:53] <Curs0r> my smb.conf says browsable = yes but the guide states that True should be used. Which is right?
[08:53] <ubuntu23> nickrud, are vmware tools not available through apt?
[08:53] <ray_> get "Envy" for video driver installations, it is simple to install and works well
[08:54] <AeroStick> Jordan_U, nickrud: when an 3d screen saver (in the window, not full screen) appears, the computer is gone, no hdd workin, no cursors, nothing, no keyboard entrance, nothing matters but the reset button
[08:54] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, Just so you know the driver is not actually written by Ubuntu, it is written by Linux developers and packaged by Ubuntu
[08:55] <figmentj13> ok i really have struggled throught this. I really need help finishing installing my sync for my windows mobile 5 phone
[08:55] <AeroStick> that's ok Jordan_U, i have no problem with it. i just need to describe to a new user who i am
[08:56] <nickrud> ubuntu23: I remember there being some kernel modules with tools in the name (I'm on gutsy)
[08:56] <ray_> I need help with installing SiteSpinner on my Ubuntu Fiesty
[08:56] <AeroStick> Jordan_U, nickrud: an info: i could install the restricted drivers (the ati's one) but i even could not watch movies, it's so slow and the 3d support ain't working, even it's written in xorg.conf...:(
[08:56] <ubuntu23> nickrud, yeah i see the kernel modules.  would that be all i need to install?
[08:57] <nickrud> ubuntu23: should be. I didn't really start using vmware until I was already on gutsy, had to use the vmware ones
[08:57] <figmentj13> how do i obtain root access?
[08:57] <nickrud> !root | figmentj13
[08:57] <ubotu> figmentj13: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[08:57] <ubuntu23> ok thanks nickrud
[08:57] <Frogzoo> nickrud: discussion of gutsy #ubuntu+1
[08:58] <PiRoMaNo> How do I run The linux version of aim?
[08:58] <nickrud> Frogzoo: explaining why I can't help with his fiesty, not explaining gutsy :)
[08:58] <Frogzoo> PiRoMaNo: gaim
[08:58] <AeroStick> Jordan_U, nickrud: man, i don't have enough to rebuild the wholw system now (lord knows i will never by an ati or epox or and amd ever again)
[08:58] <nickrud> Frogzoo: vmware, that is
[08:58] <Frogzoo> nickrud: yeah, but you know noobs see 'gutsy', then want to run it
[08:58] <codeshah> hey guys, how do I get the console to ask me for confirmation befoer something is delted with 'rm' ? ...
[08:58] <kidbuntu> whats the alacarte menu equivalent in ubuntu 7.04?
[08:58] <nickrud> Frogzoo: point taken
[08:58] <Sonicadvance1> Is there any way to get Ubuntu to stop Scaling my CPU without using emifreq-applet?
[08:58] <scguy318> codeshah : rm -i
[08:59] <scguy318> codeshah : you can alias it I think
[08:59] <PiRoMaNo> Frogzoo: Don't want GAIM, I want AIM
[08:59] <Amaranth> kidbuntu: Right click on 'Applications' and choose 'Edit Menus'
[08:59] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, Actually ATI has done some *Very* good things recently
[08:59] <AeroStick> Jordan_U, nickrud: I'm thinking to by another agp card, but it also cost a lot for me now
[08:59] <kidbuntu> Amaranth: thanks
[08:59] <codeshah> scguy318, alias it ?
[08:59] <PiRoMaNo> Frogzoo: aim.com offers a linux version, But I'm having trouble
[08:59] <scguy318> codeshah: alias rm='rm -i'
[08:59] <codeshah> aah
[08:59] <codeshah> thx
[08:59] <Frogzoo> Jordan_U: when's this new high performance fglrx driver coming?
[08:59] <Amaranth> PiRoMaNo: Why do you want AIM?
[08:59] <AeroStick> Jordan_U: probably, but it's not a solution for my wasted months.
[08:59] <PiRoMaNo> Amaranth: Because I like it >.>
[08:59] <scguy318> PiRoMaNo: k wuts the prob
[08:59] <Jordan_U> AeroStick, And I think that has a lot to do with the fact that they are now owned by AMD
[09:00] <Amaranth> PiRoMaNo: gaim/pidgin works better
[09:00] <codeshah> scguy318, and does that stay permanently or do I have to alias it in a system-wide config ?
[09:00] <kidbuntu> !games
[09:00] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[09:00] <PiRoMaNo> Amaranth: Pidgin don't work. And I don't like Gaim
[09:00] <scguy318> codeshah: it should stay, shell setting I think
[09:00] <Amaranth> PiRoMaNo: they're the same thing
[09:00] <codeshah> thx scguy318
[09:00] <scguy318> codeshah: you could always play safe and stick -i
[09:00] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, Don't remember, Betas are out for some though
[09:00] <faileas> pidgin is gaim, renamed thanks to the AOL legal department
[09:00] <PiRoMaNo> Amaranth: Pidgin is newer and has newer features. Gaim doens't have them. When i install pidgin it has nothing but boxes
[09:00] <AeroStick> Jordan_U: yes, it's a really good thing, but they're too late... and when they could compete with nvidia or intel, they're raise the prices up, there's no difference
[09:01] <scguy318> PiRoMaNo: you installing from source, or using the Debuntu repo?
[09:01] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, I am referring more to the "releasing" of specs ( though a NDA is less than ideal )
[09:01] <PiRoMaNo> scguy318: Installing what? Pidgin?
[09:01] <scguy318> PiRoMaNo: and wats the prob with AIM for Linux?
[09:01] <nickrud> Debuntu?
[09:01] <scguy318> PiRoMaNo: yeah
[09:01] <scguy318> nickrud: random website with a repo that contains latest Pidgin
[09:01] <nickrud> ah
[09:01] <kidbuntu> can someone help me install the game "flight gear"
[09:01] <PiRoMaNo> scguy318: Pidgin isn't in the synatpic program...So I install it using wine, Is there a better way?
[09:02] <AeroStick> okay, finally, Jordan_U, nickrud, and all other hears: give an advice about an agp card, i'll look for a second hand from internet, tired enough..:)
[09:02] <AeroStick> ...listenin...:)
[09:02] <scguy318> nickrud: PiRoMaNo: you have to add the Debuntu repo
[09:02] <nickrud> AeroStick: sorry about the problems, but hardware ;
[09:02] <scguy318> kidbuntu: sudo apt-get install flightgear?
[09:02] <PiRoMaNo> scguy318: WHat's that?
[09:02] <PiRoMaNo> scguy318: And how do I get it?
[09:02] <nickrud> scguy318: don't use gaim (but I know someone who wants pidgin, so thanks)
[09:02] <AeroStick> which nvidia card is better then ati radeon 9550 (it should be agp for now)
[09:03] <Frogzoo> Jordan_U: ok, thanks
[09:03] <figmentj13> how do i check firewall ports
[09:03] <kidbuntu> scguy318: thanks. didnt knew that'll work
[09:03] <nickrud> kidbuntu: sudo aptitude install flightgear ?
[09:03] <scguy318> PiRoMaNo: scratch that, you could build from source or obtain the many Pidgin packages
[09:03] <kidbuntu> nickrud: apt-get worked just fine
[09:03] <scguy318> PiRoMaNo: the site seems to be down at the moment
[09:03] <PiRoMaNo> scguy318: Ah...Well
[09:04] <scguy318> PiRoMaNo: so what was the issue with AIM for Linux?
[09:04] <AeroStick> in here; turkey, computer user who cares about customers jokes a couple of word: "i'm a dog (slave) of ati (or amd)...
[09:04] <AeroStick> ...for me... it's over
[09:04] <nickrud> figmentj13: run a scan from another computer
[09:04] <scguy318> kidbuntu: you'll prob also want fgfs-base
[09:05] <nickrud> argh, lagg, that's why I'm so slow
[09:05] <PiRoMaNo> scguy318: sorry accidentally closed mirc
[09:05] <scguy318> PiRoMaNo: np so wut was the issue with AIM for Linux?
[09:05] <AeroStick> it's 10:00 am here, and i'm trying to heal a graphic card which insists on sayin' "i wanna suicide" and jumps off the mainboard!
[09:05] <Frogzoo> figmentj13: google 'shields up' - they will scan your ports
[09:05] <PiRoMaNo> scguy318: I PMed you
[09:05] <AeroStick> i even bought a good cooler with a fan for it man..:'(
[09:06] <scguy318> PiRoMaNo: didnt receive, oh, Debuntu site appears up, http://repository.debuntu.org/
[09:06] <scguy318> PiRoMaNo: just follow directions at bottom and then install pidgin
[09:06] <kidbuntu> scguy318: i'll try that
[09:08] <nickrud> AeroStick: you could probably remove the dri stanza in /etc/X11/xorg.conf ; it'll kill gl but you should be able to run
[09:08] <bizkut> gutsy rocks!
[09:08] <AeroStick> nickrud: stanza?
[09:09] <PiRoMaNo> scguy318: I'm confused lol
[09:09] <nickrud> AeroStick:    take a look at the file, near the bottom
[09:09] <nickrud> AeroStick: stanza == section
[09:09] <figmentj13> ok i am at the last stages and just need some guidence
[09:09] <figmentj13> for syncing wm5
[09:10] <AeroStick> nickrud: okay, then what'll happen
[09:10] <nickrud> AeroStick: you won't have direct rendering
[09:10] <AeroStick> nickrud: (can you explain a little bit, gl... etc)
[09:10] <nickrud> AeroStick: back up the file, make the change, what have you got to lose?
[09:11] <AeroStick> well, this is what i also could have if i install ati's drivers, i wanna use them
[09:11] <AeroStick> nickrud: may i ask what the 0666 numbers mean there?
[09:12] <nickrud> AeroStick: there are three sources for drivers: the open source ati/radeon, which we're assuming you are using (you can see in that file) the restricted ones from ubuntu (a repackaging of ati's, a little old) and the newest from ati itself. Have you tried the restricted ones?
[09:12] <nickrud> AeroStick: it's permissions, allowing all to read and write to the video buffer (I think :)
[09:13] <AeroStick> nickrud: yes, i did, 3d were not working, and it was a torture to try to watch a movie even from vlc..:(
[09:13] <nickrud> AeroStick: did you reboot?
[09:14] <AeroStick> yes, sure, i did all the steps, but one thing, i had enabled the restricteds first, then i begin to install ati drivers from explanations from ubuntu site, but...
[09:15] <flaccid> is it possible to do casper-rw for usb pendrive persistent using fat32 instead of ext2?
[09:15] <dbanie> hi..all
[09:15] <shaffy> sup homeslice
[09:15] <AeroStick> but that page said to enable it later, i did not know that off course
[09:16] <AeroStick> nickrud: i have only 3 lines in section "device"
[09:17] <nickrud> AeroStick: that's all you need
[09:17] <AeroStick> nickrud: the identifier, the driver line and bus id
[09:17] <AeroStick> could that be about the screen?
[09:17] <viril> question: i want to run a program like "smbtree" but i don't want to keep on "sudoing" since i'm the only one using my computer. what can i do please?
[09:17] <g0dd3ss> hai everyone, would anybody here be able to recommend a program that I can use to automatically generate, from a folder of images, a webgallery with html + thumbnails n stuff?
[09:17] <AeroStick> (the problems)
[09:17] <MeRodent> blecch. 1024x768  is just wrong.
[09:17] <flaccid> https://wiki.kubuntu.org/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent <-- can anyone tell me if i can do both partitions fat32?
[09:17] <kousotu> [02:16]  <kousotu> something crashd X how di I check what?
[09:18] <nickrud> AeroStick: if all else fails, you can reinstall, and go straight to ati. Start with a clean system, since you're not sure what's borked. Not the most elegant of solutions, but ...
[09:18] <kenjy> where can I find a ubuntu 3d acceleration guide
[09:19] <AeroStick> nickrud: i reinstalled system for about times i can't remember how many...

[09:21] <nickrud> viril: you can add the line  virii   ALL = /usr/bin/smbtree   to /etc/sudoers (only edit this file with the command visudo !!)
[09:21] <Amaranth> kenjy: System->Administration->Restricted Drivers Manager
[09:21] <kenjy> Amaranth: I did it but when I restarted my system it was at 640x480

[09:25] <viril> nickrud, how did you know that smbtree is in /usr/bin/smbtree? what command is it again? i forgot. thanks!

[09:26] <Amaranth> kenjy: Option "UseEDID" "false" <--add that to the device section
[09:27] <viril> nickrud, i edited using visudo and still asking for password. i created a simple script or shortcut for it by the way, called "s" so that i don't have to type the whole "smbtree" thing
[09:27] <AeroStick> nickrud: what is "lspci -v" info opens from terminal, and where it stored, do you know?

[09:27] <winbond> do the vmware tools need to be installed from the host or the guest os?
[09:28] <nickrud> viril: try pointing your sudoers file at your script
[09:28] <Amaranth> kenjy: That's all I know about nvidia and screen resolution problems
[09:28] <nickrud> AeroStick: it pulls the information dynamically from the system, I'd assume from /proc
[09:28] <AeroStick> winbond, nickrud: what is "lspci -v" info opens from terminal, and where it stored, do you know?
[09:28] <kenjy> Amaranth now Im going to spam you
[09:28] <Amaranth> kenjy: if 640x480 defined in your xorg.conf as a valid resolution? try pressing Ctrl-Alt-Numpad +
[09:28] <AeroStick> okay, thank you...:)
[09:28] <viril> nickrud, i even tried smbtree, bypassing the script, no go
[09:28] <Amaranth> kenjy: I don't think so.
 viril: try pointing your sudoers file at your script --> err how :D
[09:29] <AeroStick> nickrud: do you have any information about the rovclock thing?
[09:29] <kenjy> Amaranth: I have 1280x1024 in my xorg
[09:29] <kenjy> where is the ubuntu nvidia guide?
[09:29] <shaffy> thanks a lot frogzoo and ubotu
[09:30] <dmind> hola
[09:30] <Amaranth> kenjy: pastebin your xorg.conf
[09:30] <nickrud> viril: the same as you did for smbtree,  (visudo edits your /etc/sudoers file) and that's straight from the man page, I looked it up again before trusting my memory
[09:30] <nathan> my vlc doesnt have sound but my mplayer and movie player do. Hoever, I have to turn my volume all the way up to even hear it... can anyone help me?
[09:30] <winbond> AeroStick, lspci is a command on Unix-like operating systems that prints detailed information about all PCI buses and devices in the system
[09:30] <dmind> somebody speak spanish?
[09:31] <viril> nickrud, ehehehe, anyway i'm reading the man file right now. thanks for pointing me to the right direction! :)
[09:31] <Rexor_Moon> Can someone please tell me what's the terminal command to remove/delete a file?
[09:31] <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
[09:31] <Xiittah> how do i go back to the reconfiguration?

[09:31] <mochaRHW> hello
[09:31] <dmind> Debian Rules
[09:32] <mochaRHW> I was wondering if anyone in here uses Ubuntu with a Pro-92 radio scanner?
[09:32] <Ahadiel> phoenixx, if you installed it through apt, it will start automatically
[09:32] <kenjy> Amaranth: http://rafb.net/p/uQqYz445.html
[09:32] <AeroStick> winbond: so the rovclock? i saw some prescribtions about overclocking to the same model card i owned on linux
[09:32] <phoenixx> [#ubuntu] 
[09:32] <mochaRHW> I am unable to get the 2 Linux based programs to work with my Pro-92
[09:32] <phoenixx> umm, [#ubuntu] 
[09:32] <phoenixx> I am running on a livecd
[09:33] <Amaranth> kenjy: 	VideoRam	16384
[09:33] <Amaranth> kenjy: get rid of that, change DefaultDepth to 24
[09:33] <nickrud> AeroStick: no, I know nothing about rovclock
[09:33] <winbond> AeroStick, what do u need overclocking for?
[09:33] <phoenixx> also, what package is the kernel sources and what package is diffutils and findutils?  apt-get can't find them it seems
[09:33] <sirskeleton> im working on handbrake but when i start a rip and convert i get this error message /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /home/sirskeleton/Desktop/HandBrake/HandBrakeCLI) any ideas of a fix?
[09:34] <kenjy> Amaranth : I set 16 because with 24 is not working
[09:34] <kenjy> Amaranth: I get 640x480 if I delete the Videoram and if I change 16 to 24depth
[09:34] <Rexor_Moon> I've got a quandary
[09:35] <AeroStick> some things (people or stuff, or cars) need to be forced to be stronger, like a bmw, it does not like to be driven in the city, eats up its life, it needs more speed and power usage on highways, so maybe..:D
[09:35] <nathan> my vlc doesnt have sound but my mplayer and movie player do. Hoever, I have to turn my volume all the way up to even hear it... can anyone help me?
[09:35] <winbond> Xiittah, sudo dpkg -reconfigure xserver-org
[09:35] <Phlosten> anyone have a solution for Ubuntu's incompatibility with USB KVM's?
[09:35] <nickrud> AeroStick: what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger!
[09:35] <AeroStick> sure..:D
[09:35] <Amaranth> kenjy: i dunno then man
[09:35] <faileas> nickrud
[09:35] <winbond> do the vmware tools need to be installed from the host or the guest os?
[09:35] <Frogzoo> Phlosten: try a different kvm ?
[09:35] <nickrud> hi, faileas
[09:35] <faileas> : OR makes you VERY sick
[09:35] <AeroStick> nickrud: if kills you, you can reinstall yourself..:D
[09:36] <kenjy> Amaranth where is the wiki or the ubuntu documentation for nvidia?
[09:36] <faileas> winbond: yes
[09:36] <Amaranth> kenjy: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg
[09:36] <kenjy> or ubuntu don't have any doc?
[09:36] <Rexor_Moon> hmm, for some reason even when I type, "sudo rm (name of folder)" it doesn't let me delete the folder
[09:36] <faileas> winbond: i mean guest ;)
[09:36] <Amaranth> kenjy: start over with a fresh xorg.conf
[09:36] <Amaranth> kenjy: and don't make any manual changes to it
[09:36] <kenjy> Amaranth my xorg.conf its ok
[09:36] <Rexor_Moon> it says that either there's no such folder or that it's a directory, either way not letting me do it
[09:36] <Phlosten> Frogzoo, i'm kinda reluntant to do musical KVM purchases when something simple like this should work
[09:36] <kenjy> Amaranth I know enof to edit the xorg.conf
[09:36] <Phlosten> it works perfectly fine in Fedora :/
[09:36] <sirskeleton> anyone? :(
[09:36] <Amaranth> !nvidia | kenjy
[09:36] <ubotu> kenjy: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:36] <nickrud> Rexor_Moon: rm -r to delete a folder with something in it, rmdir to remove an empty directory
[09:37] <Amaranth> kenjy: all we have is installation instructions, the rest is black magic that is as likely to break things as fix them
[09:37] <Frogzoo> Phlosten: if there's no usb drivers for a usb device, nothing the kernel devs can do about it
[09:37] <AeroStick> nickrud: what's god happening there for, does he clean our graves ever? no, he/or she/or both ever tried to rebuild our nasty packages in our brains to stop killing each other and other (plants, animals, nature..) ?..:D
[09:37] <winbond> faileas, so if im running xp as guest under linux, i need to log into xp and go download vmware tools for xp and install?
[09:37] <Phlosten> Frogzoo, but it works fine in Fedora, so its something Ubuntu specific :/
[09:37] <AeroStick> nickrud: off course: NO..:D
[09:38] <Frogzoo> !offtopic | AeroStick
[09:38] <ubotu> AeroStick: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:38] <AeroStick> ok, stopped..:)
[09:38] <faileas> winbond: no need to download, just click on the install tools option, and it should make a cd appear in vmwarw
[09:38] <faileas> you can install from there
[09:38] <Rexor_Moon> k thanks nickrud
[09:39] <nathan> my vlc has no sound but mplayer and totem do. however they are not at all loud enough even on full volume. can anyone help?
[09:39] <Rexor_Moon> sigh, a friend of mine, while helping me fix a problem via OpenSSH, claims that he created a backdoor into my linux kernel
[09:39] <Rexor_Moon> for himself of course
[09:39] <Frogzoo> nathan: you enabled external amp in volume control settings?
[09:40] <nickrud> not a friend, unless he's lying , in which case he's not a friend
[09:40] <winbond> faileas, i see, i clicked it but nothings happening, it sais on the bottom "u so not have vmtools installed"
[09:41] <Rexor_Moon> nickrud: meh, he does that kinda stuff, laughs about it
[09:41] <nathan> Frogzoo: I don't see an option for that
[09:41] <nickrud> winbond: explore the cd :)
[09:41] <Rexor_Moon> thing is, I don't know if he really did do it, and if he did, I don't know enough about programming to find it and destroy it
[09:41] <sirskeleton> >	im working on handbrake but when i start a rip and convert i get this error message /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /home/sirskeleton/Desktop/HandBrake/HandBrakeCLI) any ideas of a fix?
[09:42] <nathan> should it be set to alsa or oss?
[09:42] <nickrud> Rexor_Moon: there's a couple of packages which are supposed to be able to find most:  chkrootkit   and   rkhunter
[09:42] <scguy318> you can try ALSA
[09:42] <Rexor_Moon> nickrud: I'll check them out, see if I can use em
[09:43] <nickrud> Rexor_Moon: they're in the repos
[09:43] <Rexor_Moon> nickrud: repos?
[09:43] <ZAKhan> which is a good software to rip music Cdz to mp3?
[09:44] <vreer> ZAKhan: grip
[09:44] <scguy318> Rexor_Moon, Ubuntu repositories, sudo apt-get install chkrootkit rkhunter
[09:44] <scguy318> ZAKhan: Sound Juice?
[09:44] <winbond> nickrud, i see now, thats neat, thanks
[09:44] <Rexor_Moon> ah, k
[09:44] <nickrud> Rexor_Moon: repositories, where synaptic looks for software
[09:44] <nathan> still no sound from vlc
[09:44] <Frogzoo> Rexor_Moon: 1st thing to check is for a suid shell with: sudo find / -perm -4000 -exec ls -l {} \;
[09:44] <nickrud> winbond: I'm getting a little sneaky in my answers, I coulda been explicit. Means time for me to go ... enjoy
[09:45] <ZAKhan> scguy318, I tried Sound Juicer but it doesnto give me and opton to rip to MP3 . though it has a listing g under preferences
[09:46] <nathan> wait this is weird, vlc is playing sound for this file but not another
[09:46] <Frogzoo> nathan: you have to edit preferences & check the checkbox for Mic Boost to see it
[09:46] <Frogzoo> nathan: ah, External Amp that is
[09:47] <nathan> Frogzoo: I don't see either
[09:47] <figmentj13> some please help
[09:47] <figmentj13> im on my hands and knees
[09:47] <jp_> bonjour
[09:47] <scguy318> ZAKhan: hmm, check the profiles?
[09:47] <Frogzoo> nathan: sound -> volume control
[09:47] <scguy318> figmentj13: wut
[09:48] <figmentj13> ok i am trying to set up wm5 to multi sync but i can get the config/ don't understand
[09:48] <nathan> I'm in volume control
[09:48] <Rexor_Moon> hmm, how will I know if it's found something?
[09:48] <ZAKhan> scguy318, yes i did .. the listing is in profiles but it doesnot appear when i in the optput format
[09:48] <ZAKhan> output format
[09:49] <amorphous_> does anyone know of any reason why three hp1018 printers have failed in the last 24 hours in different parts of town? they.re all on ubuntu systems and the machines cannot see the printers any more... :/ cannot re-install them because they can't be seen.
[09:49] <icecruncher> hi, i forgot my user name on a ubuntu box, any help?
[09:50] <stdin> icecruncher: your user name?
[09:50] <jp_> i have a pb : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36743/
[09:50] <Rexor_Moon> Frogzoo: what do I look for now that the find process is completed?
[09:50] <icecruncher> installed it a while ago, put it in the office, now it's broke, but can't log in
[09:50] <figmentj13> or not
[09:50] <DuClare> icecruncher, look at /etc/passwd
[09:51] <mauri> hi all
[09:51] <stdin> icecruncher: start up in recovery mode and do "grep 1000 /etc/passwd" to get your username
[09:51] <Frogzoo> Rexor_Moon: check the creation date for today
[09:51] <Rexor_Moon> Frogzoo: well, it wasn't created today
[09:51] <Rexor_Moon> soo, yeah
[09:51] <mauri> 've a problem with adept_manager
[09:51] <Rexor_Moon> I actually don't remember on what date this happened
[09:51] <TuTUX> i screwed my sudoers file and I cannot use sudo now, how could i fix it?
[09:51] <Rexor_Moon> it was relatively recently
[09:52] <icecruncher> stdin: but I cannot log in...
[09:52] <xjkx> why there is no seamonkey in repositories
[09:52] <stdin> icecruncher: recovery mode
[09:52] <Frogzoo> xjkx: seahorse ?
[09:52] <icecruncher> it is
[09:52] <icecruncher> even then x crashes
[09:52] <DuClare> icecruncher, you don't need x
[09:52] <nathan> Frogzoo: http://img361.imageshack.us/img361/1351/screenshotzw8.png
[09:52] <mauri> Hi all, i'm not be able to use my webcam..someone can help me?
[09:52] <stdin> icecruncher: press Esc when booting and you'll see the grub menu list, then you can login to recovery mode (no X)
[09:53] <TuTUX> i screwed my sudoers file and I cannot use sudo now, how could i fix it? anyway i can edit the sudoers file without sudo?
[09:53] <Frogzoo> Rexor_Moon: that command should have been: sudo find / -perm -4000 -exec ls -ld {} \;
[09:53] <ZAKhan> vreer, how do i change the filename in grip?
[09:53] <stdin> TuTUX: in recovery mode, yes
[09:53] <winbond>   8dsxft6666666666666666666666666<------- my cat says hi
[09:53] <xjkx> Frogzoo: no i meant that project similar to firefox
[09:53] <TuTUX> stdin, thx a lot
[09:54] <acetoline> bah, I hate robs_
[09:54] <icecruncher> stdin, thnks, what if can't recall password
[09:54] <mauri> Hi all, i'm not be able to use my webcam..someone can help me?
[09:54] <icecruncher> ?
[09:54] <Rexor_Moon> Frogzoo: ok, now what?
[09:54] <Frogzoo> nathan: file -> change device -> alsa ?
[09:55] <stdin> icecruncher: whilst in recovery mode still, you can use "passwd YourUsername" to change it (replacing "YourUsername" with your username)
[09:55] <Frogzoo> Rexor_Moon: look for a recent file that doesn't belong - of course without good sys admin skills, you're not likely able to find this
[09:55] <nathan> it's on the also already
[09:55] <nathan> alsa*
[09:55] <Rexor_Moon> well hmm let me see...
[09:56] <nathan> HDA Intel (Alsa Mixer)
[09:56] <Rexor_Moon> is there a way for me to narrow down the results through a terminal command, as in exclude all results except this date to this date?
[09:56] <icecruncher> stdin: thnks for all the help
[09:56] <stdin> icecruncher: :)
[09:56] <vreer> ZAKhan: duno by heart,rtfm
[09:58] <ompaul> !rtfm
[09:58] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[09:58] <nathan> whats rtfm and jfgi
[09:58] <chuy_max> jfgi
[09:58] <chuy_max> :P
[09:58] <ompaul> read the fine manual and just read it on google
[09:58] <kkathman> rtfm = read the f***ing manual :)
[09:59] <nathan> ok thanks
[09:59] <kkathman> ompaul:  you paraphrase so nice :)
[09:59] <Xiittah> What is the command to remove serverx
[09:59] <nathan> actually I think read the f***ing MAN page would be better =] 
[09:59] <kkathman> thats the origin
[09:59] <kkathman> but its cleaned up in places
[09:59] <Rexor_Moon> Frogzoo: hmm, well if I go by dates, the most recent date on the list, appearing several times, is 8/22/07
[09:59] <chuy_max> Xiittah if you know what you are doing: sudo apt-get remove xserver-xorg
[10:00] <longage> example:  #$$$ hardware file ##$$##   <--any one-liner command to remove any character before hardware word except white space?
[10:00] <ompaul> nathan, no cos the use of "MAN" as opposed to "man" would be a different command
[10:00] <Rexor_Moon> thing is, that's pretty long ago already, longer ago than this event even happened
[10:00] <nathan> ompaul: you got me there
[10:00] <Xiittah> Thanks chuy_max
[10:00] <ompaul> nathan, ?
[10:01] <nathan> well I'm still at square one. my vlc plays sound for some files and not others, and all sound in vlc and mplayer and totem is too quiet to be pratical at all..
[10:02] <Frogzoo> Rexor_Moon: which files?
[10:02] <Rexor_Moon> Frogzoo: I'm tellin' ya, going by date doesn't matter
[10:02] <Frogzoo> nathan: tried turning volume up in vlc/mplayer?
[10:02] <Rexor_Moon> Frogzoo: the most recent date is too far in the past
[10:02] <bauer> permission for anonymos to see portlet_news, where dop i set that. ?
[10:02] <Frogzoo> Rexor_Moon: 22/8's recent, yes?
[10:03] <Rexor_Moon> Frogzoo: 8/22 yeah
[10:03] <nathan> Frogzoo: volume is all the way up on my speakers, on the volume control in vlc, and the volume control in gnome.
[10:03] <Rexor_Moon> as in August 22
[10:03] <LordDeLaCepa> someone knows how to read source code from a deb pkages???
[10:03] <LordDeLaCepa> from a .deb
[10:04] <Frogzoo> LordDeLaCepa: if it's not a source deb, can't be done
[10:05] <Frogzoo> Rexor_Moon: well if your friend had root and you want to fix it, reinstall
[10:05] <LordDeLaCepa> and every .deb have a source deb o there is a way to get it?
[10:06] <Frogzoo> LordDeLaCepa: apt-get source package
[10:06] <LordDeLaCepa> great
[10:06] <LordDeLaCepa> thanks very mutch
[10:06] <Rexor_Moon> Frogzoo: well yeah, I can do that, but that's freaking time consuming and tedious, I think that's a last resort measure
[10:07] <Frogzoo> Rexor_Moon: ok, so lesson learned
[10:07] <Rexor_Moon> Frogzoo: lols, guess so
[10:08] <Rexor_Moon> Frogzoo: sigh, never use OpenSSH
[10:08] <LordDeLaCepa> another question... why everybody prefer dpkg than aptitude???
[10:08] <BaD_CrC> freespire 2.0 != your friend
[10:08] <LordDeLaCepa> there is a rason?
[10:09] <BaD_CrC> it's a bigger word to spell out, that's it. :)
[10:10] <MeRodent> I know this should be in effects but anyone else loose their window borders with beryl and work out how to fix it?
[10:10] <LordDeLaCepa> ok, allways be curious about that
[10:10] <ompaul> MeRodent, then #ubuntu-effects is the place to ask
[10:10] <LordDeLaCepa> thanks to all
[10:10] <LordDeLaCepa> sal
[10:11] <LordDeLaCepa> i go i don't understand your lenguaje
[10:11] <ppj> Hey in grub's menu.lst what command defines which will be the default OS to load, is it just the first one?
[10:11] <mauri>  Hi all, i'm not be able to use my webcam..someone can help me?
[10:11] <icecruncher> my install does not recognize the lan connection, how to configure it?
[10:12] <MeRodent> #ubuntu-effects
[10:12] <icecruncher> when I open network admin, all I see is a modem connection
[10:12] <ompaul> MeRodent, then /join #ubuntu-effects
[10:12] <chuy_max> icecruncher, so?
[10:12] <icecruncher> network cable is plugged in, but is not recgnized
[10:13] <ompaul> icecruncher, what kind of a lan connection have you got?
[10:13] <zippyy> icecruncher, dhcpcd eth0  or eth1 whatever your accord array is.
[10:13] <chuy_max> icecruncher, does your NIC appear in ifconfig?
[10:13] <BaD_CrC> i miss my wired connection. :(
[10:13] <icecruncher> dhcp
[10:14] <Zta> Is it udev that takes care of the basic device recognition, configuration, and module loading when i insert a bluetooth pcmcia card?
[10:14] <icecruncher> chuy_max: nic?
[10:14] <DuClare> ppj, default 0
[10:14] <DuClare> ppj, default # will make entry # the default
[10:14] <vreer> icecruncher: network card
[10:14] <ppj> DuClare: yeah i just saw that, so i assume Default=1 = the 2nd in the list
[10:15] <DuClare> yeah, I guess so
[10:15] <chuy_max> icecruncher, nic == network card, check the output of ifconfig command in a terminal
[10:15] <ppj> thanks
[10:15] <icecruncher> no, all I have is the loopback
[10:15] <chuy_max> icecruncher, what about ifconfig -a
[10:15] <Frogzoo> Zta: actually that's HAL
[10:15] <BaD_CrC> what kind of nic is it? it may be a driver issue.
[10:16] <icecruncher> chuy_max: there is a sit0
[10:16] <DuClare> ppj, http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#default
[10:16] <chuy_max> icecruncher, take it up then, ifconfig sit0 up
[10:16] <chuy_max> icecruncher, and then: dhclient sit0
[10:17] <mauri>  Hi all, i'm not be able to use my webcam..someone can help me?
[10:17] <nathan> is there any way to get the voume up higher?
[10:17] <nathan> volume*
[10:17] <nathan> well I'm still at square one. my vlc plays sound for some files and not others, and all sound in vlc and mplayer and totem is too quiet to be pratical at all..
[10:17] <chuy_max> nathan, usually you get better speakers :)
[10:18] <chuy_max> nathan, try alsamixer
[10:18] <BaD_CrC> nathan: open a terminal and run 'alsamixer'
[10:18] <nathan> chuy_max: my speakers are _loud_ on other OS
[10:18] <BaD_CrC> set PCM to 100
[10:18] <grayhane> need some help with totem, cannot skip forward or back without freezing up
[10:18] <rothchild> morning, does anyone have a usb hard drive working properly and being automounted in either feisty or gutsy?
[10:18] <DuClare> nathan, check out "wave", "pcm" and maybe different channels like front, center and back in alsamixer
[10:18] <nathan> it's already at 100; they are all at 100
[10:19] <nathan> except the last two which are input I think
[10:19] <mauri>  Hi all, i'm not be able to use my webcam..someone can help me?
[10:19] <grayhane> rothchild, I have a flash / usb that boots up my system
[10:19] <Frogzoo> rothchild: very common, please state your issue without the preliminaries
[10:19] <icecruncher> chuy_max, the how can I change where it asks for dhcp from? it currently 255.255.255.255
[10:20] <Frogzoo> icecruncher: 255.255.255.255 is local broadcast, and usually is what you want
[10:20] <icecruncher> my router is on 192.168.1.1
[10:20] <rothchild> grayphane I'm all good with thumbdrive and phone etc this is a seagate usb hard drive
[10:20] <chuy_max> icecruncher, ehrm, you specify to listen from a specific NIC
[10:20] <Frogzoo> icecruncher: that's fine
[10:20] <nathan> let me be a little more clear; when I use xmms, my sound is loud as hell.. it's only when I play videos and movies that it's too quiet
[10:20] <rothchild> formated fat32
[10:20] <chuy_max> icecruncher, you have to listen, you don't use a specific IP address
[10:20] <rothchild> doesn't automount
[10:20] <nathan> also my sound doesn't work on vlc at all in SOME files but does in others..
[10:20] <NEsTor|away> hi all, how to encode on the fly flow wma not ask why, ogg better ... but it must wma
[10:21] <Zta> Frogzoo, once you think you get one hardware subsystem to know, they replace it with somehting else =)
[10:21] <fuzzy> how do i run a .run?
[10:21] <rothchild> fdisk -l sees it but no automagic
[10:21] <BaD_CrC> windows media seeking isn't all that great in any linux distro. it's a limitation of the w32codecs.
[10:22] <rothchild> previously I could make it work (under gutsy) with pmount-hal sdb1 but that has been broken now too
[10:23] <icecruncher> chuy_max: so using dhclient, i don't get a connection
[10:23] <rothchild> more info here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/114777
[10:23] <fuzzy> how do i use a .run file? i couldnt google it because it just pulls up other stuff
[10:24] <Zta> Frogzoo, About a year ago successfully followed this document to make my Debian laptop recognise and setup my CF bluetooth card.  But the files don't exist on my new Ubuntu.  Can you or anyone else help me how to apply this to udev/hal?  Please see section "Configuration" here: http://www.triptico.com/software/bluetooth.html

[10:29] <nathan> when I use xmms, my sound is loud as hell.. it's only when I play videos and movies that it's too quiet

[10:37] <rothchild> hi can anyone confirm that they have a usb hard drive (proper spinning one not a thumb drive) working under either feisty or gutsy (ie being automounted on connection)? I am gathering data for a bug report because it seems to be seriously broken in both versions
[10:38] <ompaul> rothchild, I don't but my mate does, and it works on feisty for him
[10:38] <joq> http://pastebin.com/d4e705c33
[10:38] <rothchild> ompaul do you know how the drive is formated?
[10:38] <ompaul> rothchild, fat32 iirc

[10:39] <kenjy> guys I wanna build a photo album in a CD but I can't find a open source alternative to do it, I don't wanna build a video slideshow cd ... can you recomend me a program?
 I probably grep the result
[10:39] <chuy_max> *would grep
[10:39] <Meroigo> what's grep?
[10:39] <rothchild> dang! Thats what I got and I get no joy - I've been all over the config
[10:40] <ubuntu65> how can in install vmware tools in feist fawn?
[10:40] <chuy_max> Meroigo: locate mp3 | grep /home/meroigo
[10:40] <ompaul> joq, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto more information there - you appear to have a broken command line ;-)
[10:40] <ubuntu65> in apt, all i see is vmware-tools-modules
[10:40] <chuy_max> Meroigo something like that
[10:40] <Meroigo> nice, i'll try it out :)
[10:41] <rothchild> ompaul do you know if your mate has read / write working ok on that drive too?
[10:41] <mauri> Markon c6
[10:41] <lwizardl> Hi
[10:41] <lwizardl> how do I change the name giving to a drive ?
[10:41] <ompaul> rothchild, just check sys pref removable disks and drives for auto mount setting - and yes he has full functionality
[10:41] <lwizardl> i have drives called disk, disk-1,disk-2,disk-3
[10:42] <ompaul> rothchild, cos we moved a full repo (all 33 gigs of it) from one machine to another with it
[10:42] <RichiH> is there any edubuntu-gui for KDE?
[10:42] <panny> i have a question about gutsy gibbon
 you mount drives wherever you want, this is not windows
[10:42] <Meroigo> chuy_max: is there a command where I have to press a button to se the next screen of results? I can't scroll upp to see the first results
[10:42] <chuy_max> Meroigo, less
[10:42] <ompaul> RichiH, afik no, #kubuntu may have a better answer
[10:43] <panny> will updates be unavailable in 7.04 when 7.10 is released. can i still use 7.04 and get updates and stuff
[10:43] <lwizardl> chuy_max, i know that they are mounted where i want them, but the display name on them are disk, disk-1,disk-2,disk-3 I would rather have them as something else
[10:43] <Meroigo> chuy_max: thanks
[10:43] <chuy_max> Meroigo pipe the result if you need to
[10:43] <Meroigo> how do i pipe?
[10:43] <ompaul> panny, you can use 7.04 until 8.10 for updates
[10:43] <rothchild> ompaul thanks (i guess! ;-)) I've been up and down this one and have no joy in either feisty or gutsy
[10:43] <ompaul> panny, year / month and 18 months support
[10:44] <panny> ah i see
[10:44] <chuy_max> Meroigo: with | symbol, eg, locate mp3 | less , or you can use locate mp3|grep /home | less

[10:44] <Xiittah> I have been trying to reconfigure my xserver but it allways stops when i choose the color depht then a little piece of command line pops to the bottom and i cant continue configurating
[10:44] <Xiittah> How do i get back to reconfiguraring
[10:44] <panny> and i dont want to find out certain things dont work
[10:44] <Xiittah> ?
[10:44] <Meroigo> chuy_max: aha, yes, i did that, but thanks anyway :)
[10:44] <ompaul> panny, lts is long term support and 6.06 is supported (not packages updated too often only on big breaks but security fixes until 9.06 desktp and 11.06 server
[10:44] <chuy_max> rapid, useradd or adduser, both do different things, check out the manpages
[10:45] <GIn> !kde
[10:45] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE) . Latest KDE version is 3.5.7 for Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[10:45] <rothchild> ompaul sorry one last q is this in feisty we are talking about?
[10:45] <ompaul> rothchild,  yearp
[10:45] <Meroigo> it says "END.." how do i escape it so I can write new commands, chuy_max ?
[10:45] <rapid> adduser: Only one or two names allowed.
[10:45] <rothchild> ompaul ta!
[10:45] <ompaul> rapid, you use system - administration - users and groups
[10:45] <ubuntu65> in apt, all i see is vmware-tools-modules
[10:45] <ubuntu65> how can in install vmware tools in feist fawn?
[10:46] <xjkx> i read a tutorial talking about rc.conf but cant find it on ubuntu
[10:46] <rapid> ompaul, over ssh? :)
[10:46] <ompaul> chuy_max, don't hand out cli when there are gui tools unless asked for them - make it easy on  new users that is the whole idea :)
[10:46] <chuy_max> Meroigo, q, when in doubt, read the manpages
[10:46] <RichiH> ompaul: k, thanks
[10:46] <Meroigo> okay
[10:46] <LiquidValium> anybody in here got myspaceIM working in linux?
[10:47] <ompaul> rapid, ahh ssh -X user@IP gksu users-admin
[10:47] <LiquidValium> about the only thing I can't get straight
[10:47] <chuy_max> ompaul, what are you talking about? :|, cli kicks ass
[10:47] <chuy_max> :D
[10:48] <panny> ompaul , what happens after 8.10.  there just wont be any updates to 7.04?
[10:48] <ompaul> panny correct
[10:48] <chuy_max> ompaul, and if you read all the way up, Meroigo was using console
[10:49] <Meroigo> chuy_max: i'm pretty sure I have alot of *.doc files on my network mounts I've mounted to /mnt, but it doesn't seem to find them. doesn't it cache network mounts?
[10:49] <Latty> Hey all, I have a problem trying to set up LVM, I do a vgcreate (vgcreate -v data /dev/sdb3 /dev/sdc2) and get '/dev/sdb3 not identified as an existing physical volume' 'Unable to add physical volume '/dev/sdb3' to volume group 'data'.' - and Ideas as to how to get this to work?
[10:50] <ompaul> panny, have a look at this: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases
[10:50] <chuy_max> Meroigo, locate searches in a database, it doesn't search in the hard disk
[10:50] <Meroigo> okay, maybe I can try find.
[10:50] <chuy_max> Meroigo, it has the advantage to be pretty fast, but the drawback is that you won't see newer files
[10:50] <Meroigo> those files are old.
[10:51] <Meroigo> i thought it refreshed the database from time to time
[10:51] <chuy_max> Meroigo, use updatedb then
[10:51] <chuy_max> Meroigo no it doesn't you do it manually
[10:51] <panny> ompaul, cheers :-)
[10:51] <Meroigo> ah, okay
[10:52] <ompaul> Meroigo, to find them - sudo updatedb on the command line then use locate -i filename the -i is ignore case
[10:52] <Latty> Forgot to run it as root, of course.
[10:52] <ompaul> !rootsudo | Latty
[10:52] <ubotu> Latty: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:52] <Latty> it's the obvious stuff that gets you every time.
[10:52] <Latty> ompaul: Yeah I know, I just said I realised.

[11:00] <Xiittah> I have been trying to reconfigure my xserver but it allways stops when i choose the color depht then a little piece of command line pops to the bottom and i cant continue configurating
[11:00] <Xiittah> How do i get back to reconfigurating?
[11:01] <stdin> isidoro: you can do "script -c command" or just run script to log everything you do and see in the shell
[11:01] <Meroigo> ompaul: http://static.pici.se/pictures/BNUMcOyNe.png look there.. as you can see, there are *.txt files somewhere on /mnt/amdlagring but locate doesn't show them. I have updated the db too. :/ do you know why?
[11:02] <isidoro> stdin: and how can i specify a name and position of the log file?
[11:02] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi!
[11:02] <stdin> isidoro: with -a
[11:03] <ompaul> Meroigo, did you run sudo updatedb?
[11:03] <isidoro> stdin: script - a /home/namefile    ?
[11:03] <Meroigo> yes ompaul
[11:03] <stdin> isidoro: yep
[11:03] <isidoro> :-) I try
[11:05] <ompaul> Meroigo, so in /etc/updatedb.conf is it pruning mnt ?
[11:05] <Meroigo> gonna chec
[11:05] <Meroigo> k
[11:06] <isidoro> stdin: :-) yesssss   works     thank you.
[11:06] <stdin> :)
[11:06] <Meroigo> ompaul: ah, # filesystems which are pruned from updatedb database
[11:06] <Meroigo> cifs are there
[11:06] <Meroigo> and I use cifs for my mounts
[11:06] <ompaul> Meroigo, and I wonder how that impacts stuff ;-)
[11:07] <Meroigo> ;] 
[11:07] <Meroigo> gonna try to change it and updatedb again

[11:10] <Tsukasa> hey how do you edit places
[11:11] <diiba> Hi
[11:11] <bdnuggin> anyone know a resource for compizfusion title bars gone missing?
vi places</joke> -- Tsukasa nano is an editor - but what are you trying to edit ?
[11:11] <diiba> I have a question regarding grep command
[11:11] <diiba> How do I exclude the search pattern for output?
[11:12] <diiba> *from
[11:12] <ompaul> diiba, grep -v thing-you-dont-want
[11:12] <diiba> Ty
[11:12] <Tsukasa> ompaul, you know the menu at the top, places
[11:12] <Tsukasa> ompaul, i want to add some places
[11:12] <Tsukasa> i cant edit it though
[11:13] <Tsukasa> or i dont know where to rather. the menu editor doesnt list places
[11:13] <diiba> Oh that wasnt quite what I expected
[11:13] <diiba> Im searching with PATTERN"*"
[11:13] <diiba> And i dont want to have the pattern on the output
[11:13] <diiba> Only the "
[11:13] <diiba> Only the "*"
[11:14] <ompaul> Tsukasa, no idea
[11:15] <ompaul> diiba, if you find FooBar all you want is the bar?
[11:15] <diiba> Yep
[11:15] <diiba> Yep so Im searching Foo
[11:16] <ompaul> diiba, do you want to ignore the Bar where Foo is also is existing?
[11:16] <diiba> Yep so Im searching Foo* and all I want is the output of * (in this case Bar)
[11:16] <diiba> No
[11:16] <diiba> I want the bar from all the bars, even if there is foo
[11:17] <ompaul> diiba, not the function of grep, what you want to do now is maybe use "cut" or a bit of python/perl or sed or some such to remove the foo
[11:17] <diiba> Ok, Ill take a look to sed manuals and bit of googlin
[11:17] <diiba> Thanks
[11:17] <ompaul> diiba, as you know what foo is
[11:18] <ompaul> diiba, sorry what bar  is why not just count it?
[11:18] <ompaul> diiba, I am finding it hard to work out what you are trying to do if not just count something
[11:18] <ompaul> diiba, your use case is not obvious
[11:18] <diiba> Actually i think I just figured it out
[11:19] <diiba> Cant just explain it in english, I
[11:19] <Lhademmor> My Ubuntu is lagging / is slow. Is there any way to defragment Ubuntu in order to make it faster?
[11:19] <diiba> 'm bit worked out right now.
[11:19] <Tsukasa> how do you add a user to a group?
[11:20] <IntuitiveNipple> Tsukasa: on the command-line, or from Gnome menus?
[11:20] <Tsukasa> IntuitiveNipple, either
[11:20] <IntuitiveNipple> System > Administration > Users and Groups
[11:20] <ompaul> Lhademmor, not really, that is not where you get performance improvement from, you may get a lot from more ram, what is the spec of your machine, you might be better with sudo apt-get install xubuntu and then running the xfce window manager if the box is low on resources
[11:20] <IntuitiveNipple> or, usermod -aG <group> <user>
[11:21] <realnewguy> hey guys, how do i check for updates for ATI drivers through the terminal?, ive got the ATI CCC version 8.35.5

[11:25] <NuCobra> What is the Command for up dating?
[11:25] <Lo_Pan> apt-get update?

[11:25] <ompaul> sudo apt-get upgrade << that brings in the files
[11:26] <NuCobra> thank you
[11:26] <gumby11> hi
[11:26] <NuCobra> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[11:26] <gumby11> i wonder why i can talk here and not debian :-(
[11:27] <limejuic1> i want to reduce the font of the console, which one can see by pressing alt+ctrl+F1 ..F6
[11:27] <limejuic1> how to do it?
[11:27] <limejuic1> some one suggest giving vga option while boot ( but in that case i want to find out what all vga options are available)
[11:28] <Lhademmor> ompaul: It's 768 MB RAM I think. Also, 1.something GHz CPU, so the specs are all right, and it has always been working good. Mainly, it was just firefox that lagged a little when visiting http://nyhederne.tv2.dk
[11:28] <Tsukasa> hey question
[11:28] <Tsukasa> i just installed gutsy and the update manager (first run) is complaining about doing a partial upgrade and it says 2 packages will be removed
[11:28] <Tsukasa> normal?
[11:28] <ompaul> Lhademmor, so maybe it is a bandwidth issue on either end
[11:28] <limejuic1> what does this file /etc/defaults/console-setup do?
[11:29] <limejuic1> SOS
[11:29] <Tsukasa> its removing xsane and gimpprint
[11:29] <gumby11> tsukasa: thats supposed to do that when theres a conflict
[11:31] <NuCobra> ompaul, can i download it an run it?
[11:32] <ompaul> NuCobra, do that "sudo dpkg --configure -a"   you need to
[11:32] <Lhademmor> ompaul: Could be, yes.
[11:33] <NuCobra> ompaul, it won't let me 'E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.'
[11:33] <ompaul> NuCobra, I said .....    sudo dpkg --configure -a    ..... you need to do that before you do anything else
[11:34] <Tsukasa> hey i want to add a command to be executed on system startup as root... where do i stick it
[11:35] <onats> does anyone have any idea on how to create a usb bootable ubuntu system?

[12:38] <rausb0> joakim: yes, in /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:38] <KenSentMe> Can i test the changes i made to /etc/fstab without restarting the system?

[12:41] <joakim> Yes
[12:42] <rausb0> joakim: can you paste your sources.list file on http://phpfi.com ?
[12:42] <joakim> ok
[12:43] <tom17bombadil_> KenSentMe: i am not sure, but is it not 'source /etc/fstab' to make the system read the new config?
[12:43] <N3oXid> I'm trying to make my Promise Controler card to work : anyone could help me ?
[12:44] <KenSentMe> tom17bombadil_, i found it. I just need to run mount share to test if it works

[12:52] <Thomas64> morning all. Is there anyone here that has some insight into new nvidia cards (8800 series) and ubuntu? :)
[12:53] <MeRodent> Thomas64, what did you want to know?
[12:53] <NuCobra> ompaul, can i use other apps wile i wait? like firefox?
[12:54] <Thomas64> well, I've been trying to get my card to work "properly" in ubuntu but I've had no luck. I'm new to ubuntu, I've installed it from the livecd (ubuntu 7.04 64 bit) and I'm trying to install the nvidia drivers for my card.
[12:54] <NewG> hi! Could anyone point me out site for Ubuntu recommended hardware
[12:55] <Frogzoo> !hardware | NewG
[12:55] <ubotu> NewG: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[12:55] <NewG> thanks
[12:55] <MeRodent> Thomas64, bugger. I've got a step by step set of instructions on how to install the drivers but the file was deleted. I'll try find the website for you.
[12:55] <joakim> Back again
[12:56] <joakim> what was the link to that site where I could post the code?
[12:56] <Thomas64> that'd be great. I've tried a few tutorials but I always come up short at some point. Last time it was something about and x-server. Tried to disable it and everything blacked out. I need someone to hold my hand through the whole process :\
[12:56] <rausb0> joakim: phpfi.com
[12:57] <marlun> I've got ubuntu installed on my Acer laptop and Ubuntu keeps freezing for a couple of seconds. I've checked the memory and it's not that I run out of memory it doesn't matter how much or little I've got running.
[12:57] <joakim> http://phpfi.com/261447
[12:57] <joakim> There
[12:57] <NewG> if I should choose between ati radeon 7000+ or matrox G4, which one would be more stable? I'm not interested of 3D and speed
[12:57] <johnnylittle> hey
[12:57] <johnnylittle> just a little help with partitioning?
[12:58] <johnnylittle> i have installed xp then vista
[12:58] <Disorganized> Hey all, I just recently tried to run apt-get on a breezy box that I rarely update. And it's coming back with 404s on all the repos, i tried an apt-get update and after checking the url, http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/    breezy is no longer listed in the dists
[12:58] <rausb0> joakim: you cannot do "apt-get update" without sudo
[12:58] <johnnylittle> now i'm partitioning for ubuntu
[12:59] <rausb0> joakim: and you certainly didn't paste your /etc/apt/sources.list. yours must have duplicate entries.
[12:59] <johnnylittle> when i partition for ubuntu i want ext3 and
[12:59] <Disorganized> so, anyone know what's up with the breeze repo?
[12:59] <Disorganized> err breezy heh
[12:59] <johnnylittle> does it need to be pri or logical
[12:59] <johnnylittle> ?
[12:59] <MeRodent> Thomas64, you on the ubuntu machine or another one?
[01:00] <Thomas64> well, I'm on the ubuntu machine now. I'm dual booting vista and ubuntu, and currently in ubuntu
[01:00] <joakim> Darn, Im such a beginner.. Now the Update manager works
[01:00] <ompaul> Disorganized, breezy is no longer supported
[01:00] <Disorganized> crap, that's what i was afraid of.
[01:01] <Disorganized> so, how reliable is apt-get upgrade?
[01:01] <Disorganized> hehe
[01:01] <johnnylittle> does anyone know?
[01:01] <Disorganized> or can i even do that
[01:01] <MeRodent> Thomas64, I'll keep looking for the site then as you have to stop X and gdm to setup the drivers. In the meantime download the linux nvidia drivers from the nvidia site.
[01:01] <johnnylittle> i have a 160 gig sata
[01:01] <ompaul> Disorganized, from there to here is bad
[01:01] <Disorganized> not recommended then?
[01:01] <johnnylittle> 60 xp 60 vista 30 in ext3 logical?
[01:01] <ompaul> Disorganized, you upgrade version to version
[01:01] <johnnylittle> 2gig swap?
[01:01] <tluca1> does anyone know how I can actually get apt to work properly with a Password authenticated proxy?
[01:01] <tluca1> I have looked on the web
[01:02] <ompaul> Disorganized, so I strongly suggest you download and do  afresh install
[01:02] <tluca1> nothing has got apt working
[01:02] <Cyber_Stalker> didav
[01:02] <Cyber_Stalker> Disorganized
[01:02] <joakim> but I did post the content of my sources.list-file, it was what was generated on the site. Anyway, it seems to work fine now, and I thank you for your help!
[01:02] <Cyber_Stalker> jsut download the latest one
[01:02] <Cyber_Stalker> its alot eayer then the whole upgrade process
[01:02] <Cyber_Stalker> + downloading the new release will be shorter and take less cap :P
[01:03] <Disorganized> rough, but i was sort of expecting that. I guess I'll call the hosting company and have them throw a 2nd drive into the box and do a fresh install. thanks guys.
[01:03] <stdin> johnnylittle: doesn't matter much, go with primary if you want
[01:03] <johnnylittle> ok
[01:03] <Cyber_Stalker> hmm
[01:03] <johnnylittle> i just want xp and vista to boot still
[01:03] <jrib> tluca1: is 'export http_proxy=http://username:password@proxyserver.net:port/' not working?  Or have you tried using apt.conf?
[01:03] <Cyber_Stalker> joakim
[01:03] <Cyber_Stalker> jonn
[01:03] <johnnylittle> i have 35 gig free
[01:04] <johnnylittle> for ubuntu and swap
[01:04] <Cyber_Stalker> johnnylittle give me 2 seconds to check what mine or
[01:04] <Cyber_Stalker> are*
[01:04] <johnnylittle> i got 2 gig ddr2 and 256 gig vid ram
[01:04] <tluca1> jrib, I can't remember, I will try it again
[01:04] <johnnylittle> k cool
[01:04] <tluca1> jrib, where do I put that line?
[01:04] <A[D] minS> !bcm44xx
[01:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bcm44xx - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:04] <jrib> tluca1: in your shell
[01:04] <Cyber_Stalker> johnnylittle my swap is set as logical and space used as storage is set as primary
[01:05] <tluca1> jrib, just type that in directly?
[01:05] <jrib> tluca1: yes, that will be enough to test it in that shell
[01:05] <tluca1> jrib I will try now
[01:05] <joakim> yes?
[01:07] <Moez> Hello ! I have this message when i try to install a package in terminal : "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?"
[01:07] <Moez> An idea ?
[01:07] <johnnylittle> so os is primary
[01:07] <tluca1> Moez, it looks like it
[01:07] <Cyber_Stalker> yea
[01:08] <Cyber_Stalker> all of them should be
[01:08] <tluca1> moez, ddoes it do that every time?
[01:08] <alesan> re
[01:08] <ZoKo> hi
[01:08] <tluca1> moez, even immediately after a boot
[01:08] <tluca1> ?
[01:08] <alesan> I am using kubuntu and I like to keep the kubuntu-desktop, but, I would also like to use gnome. which package should I install?
[01:08] <Cyber_Stalker> umm Moez
[01:08] <Cyber_Stalker> is synaptic open>
[01:08] <Cyber_Stalker> ?
[01:08] <NuCobra> ompaul, it takes along time to do all the config am i right?
[01:08] <tluca1> alesan, why can't you have both?
[01:09] <alesan> tluca1, what?
[01:09] <tluca1> alesan, I have in the past
[01:09] <Moez> tlucal : I install the systeml yesterday. When i put for exemple "sudo apt-get install XXX"
[01:09] <tluca1> oh, sorry
[01:09] <tluca1> alesan, ubuntu-desktop
[01:09] <alesan> tluca1, I want to keep kubuntu-desktop.
[01:09] <zapzig> hi, what is the command for converting video_ts and audio_ts to iso?
[01:09] <alesan> I just want the option for gnome
[01:09] <ompaul> NuCobra, if it breaks mid install yes, might be faster to reinstall looking at the amount of time - but now the question is, do you have 5 mins more and will it be finished then or would a reinstall be faster
[01:10] <AndrewB> Moez: check synaptic isn't open, that you are doing any updates, or you have another apt-get process going.
[01:10] <Turbooster> hi there
[01:10] <tluca1> alesan, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop - you can have both at the same time
[01:10] <Moez> Cyber_Stalker : Oh ! Synaptic is open yes. Excuse me :)
[01:10] <Cyber_Stalker> lol
[01:10] <Moez> Thank you for help guys !
[01:10] <Cyber_Stalker> its a pleasure :P
[01:10] <alesan> tluca1, I don't know how to explain. if I install ubuntu desktop all the startup logo and things will be chenged to ubuntu
[01:10] <tluca1> alesan, the option will appear for GNOME in the 'session' list on the logon screen
[01:10] <alesan> I want to keep the kubuntu ones, just have to start gnome
[01:11] <AndrewB> I think if you install kubuntu-artwork it would fix that alesan.
[01:11] <Turbooster> My NTFS drives aren't mounted anymore under gutsy. I noticed the change of description from h** to s** and now back but didn't get the change to h** to work
[01:11] <NuCobra> ompaul, very true, :-D
[01:11] <jrib> Turbooster: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[01:12] <Turbooster> sorry forgot again ;)
[01:12] <graulich> my laptop's speakers stay active when headphones are plugged in. how can I change this?
[01:12] <tluca1> alesan, maybe try a switcher to switch the bootscreen back?
[01:12] <tluca1> I don't know
[01:12] <alesan> AndrewB, I find this entire procedure not correct. why should I install ubuntu-desktop? isn't there a package only for gnome? I guess yes and I will try
[01:12] <alesan> thank you anyway
[01:12] <alesan> bye
[01:12] <tluca1> alesan, good point yes, probably?
[01:12] <tluca1> why can't you use adept to do it and search for GNOME?
[01:13] <JRDezine> hi all
[01:13] <AndrewB> hi JRDezine
[01:13] <graulich> my laptop's speakers stay active when headphones are plugged in. how can I change this?
[01:14] <JRDezine> does anyone know which file to edit to make the ubuntu splas screen stay up longer?
[01:14] <dappermuis> why would you want it to stay up longer? that means a longer boot time
[01:15] <JRDezine> i'm aware of that - i just want it to stay up for wee bit longer
[01:15] <JRDezine> is there a way to do that?
[01:15] <jrib> tluca1: if that command worked, you'll need to make it permanent
[01:16] <marysman> hello all
[01:16] <marysman> is this the right place to ask about servers
[01:16] <tluca1> jrib I don't know yet I have a direct connection as well for now I will need to wait until that is blocked until i test It won't I?
[01:16] <mdkaneda55> hey, how can i easily mount my local / (root) partition in the Live CD with write permissions?
[01:17] <dappermuis> JRDezine, ok - i don't think it will be very easy to do though, you'll essentially be telling the boot up process to stop or slow down
[01:17] <dappermuis> marysman, ask away
[01:17] <dappermuis> mdkaneda55, with sudo
[01:17] <jrib> tluca1: oh, ok.  Note taht if you use the gui (system -> preferences -> network proxy  and use "details" to fill in password info), it should work, but you may need to reboot for the settings to take affect in your terminals.
[01:17] <JRDezine> dappermuis: Ok thanks anyway - I thought it may have at least a minimum time somewhere
[01:18] <tluca1> jrib, oops, should have said (Forgot), i am using KDE
[01:18] <tluca1> jrib, the odd thing is thatsome repos work, others don't
[01:18] <jrib> tluca1: hmm, there might be some gui there too, but idk
[01:18] <dappermuis> JRDezine, the ubuntu splash screen is called in the menu.lst grub configuration file, check out the options you can pass to grub when it boots
[01:19] <JRDezine> hmm, just had a thought - anyone use the gnome splash manager?
[01:19] <JRDezine> dappermuis: Thanks very much i'll have a look and get back to everyone:D
[01:19] <tluca1> jrib, 'but idk'?
[01:19] <jrib> tluca1: but I don't know
[01:19] <tluca1> jrib, ok
[01:19] <dappermuis> np
[01:19] <tluca1> never mind
[01:20] <NuCobra> ompaul, can i get the 2 commands again i am going to reinstall
[01:20] <tluca1> thankyou, bye
[01:21] <steel_lady> people, what's the time? Since we installed feisty, both of our computer clocks went nutts!!!
[01:21] <CdBi-Tux> hi all
[01:21] <bullgard4> English help wanted: man apt-get writes: "upgrade is used to install the newest versions of all packages currently installed on the system from the sources enumerated in /etc/apt/sources.list." In /etc/apt/sources.list I can only see a list of repository web addresses. What is there 'enumerated'?
[01:21] <CdBi-Tux> i need to record my x session for an howto
[01:21] <CdBi-Tux> what program can I use?
[01:22] <jrib> bullgard4: "enumerated" means "listed"
[01:22] <daedra> what do I do with a freeshell.org account?
[01:22] <zapzig> what is the command for converting video_ts and audio_ts to iso?
[01:22] <bullgard4> jrib: Ok, there is no difference?
[01:22] <wanger> steel_lady: 1122 GMT, i've had some fun with system clocks during installs =)
[01:22] <jrib> bullgard4: not in taht context, no
[01:22] <dappermuis> zapzig, there's no easy command to do that
[01:22] <daedra> theres things I need it for... but I can't think of how to use it
[01:23] <bullgard4> jrib: Thank you for explaining.
[01:23] <ompaul> NuCobra, sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade <<< the first one gets the list of files available, the second gets the files themselves
[01:23] <steel_lady> wanger, are you sure?
[01:23] <wanger> steel_lady: yep, 1223 BST where i am
[01:24] <steel_lady> wanger, ok now I feel better
[01:24] <l0vErBoY> hi
[01:24] <NuCobra> ompaul, and the config command?
[01:24] <ompaul> bullgard4, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enumeration for more info
[01:24] <dappermuis> CdBi-Tux, xvidcap
[01:24] <zapzig> dappermuis, I used mkisofs once just can not remember the rest of the command
[01:25] <ompaul> NuCobra, if it fails it will give you that to run again, just stick sudo in front of it
[01:25] <wanger> steel_lady: hehe good stuff, the problem i had was that my system clock was too far out for ntpdate to sync it for me, so i just had to do it manually once
[01:25] <NuCobra> ompaul, ok
[01:26] <steel_lady> wanger I did it manually for my bf but he told me it went crazy again the next day
[01:26] <steel_lady> and I already thought that I am crazy and lost 5 hours
[01:26] <wanger> steel_lady: does he dual-boot?
[01:27] <bogdomania> hello all...im trying to install a daemon and in the shell says that the c compiler doesn`t work
[01:27] <Thomas64> does anyone have a few minutes to guide me through a nvidia driver install? :)
[01:27] <wanger> steel_lady: with windows i mean..
[01:27] <steel_lady> wanger yes
[01:28] <steel_lady> wanger but I think he wasn't booting in win these days
[01:28] <steel_lady> it has something to do with it?
[01:28] <IdleOne> bogdomania: install build-essential
[01:29] <wanger> steel_lady that'll probably be it, windows handles time in a more primitive way than linux, always insists on the hardware clock being at local time, whereas linux keeps the hardware clock at UTC and just deals with it
[01:29] <rapid> how would i scp blah to foo at -P 31337 anyone? :)
[01:29] <bullgard4> ompaul: Thank you very much.
[01:29] <steel_lady> wanger, 5 hours?
[01:29] <gordonjcp> scp -P31337 blah foo:
[01:30] <wanger> steel_lady: although linux can (has to so windows doesn't fuck it over) do both
[01:30] <gordonjcp> rapid: the clue is in the question ;-)
[01:30] <wanger> steel_lady: depends where you live
[01:30] <gordonjcp> wanger: yeah
[01:30] <keithhhhh> Im having problems writing to my fat32 partition....  this is my fstab entry.  /dev/hda5 / ext3 noatime 1 1
[01:30] <keithhhhh> /dev/hda7 /mnt/fat32 vfat umask=0 0 0
[01:30] <keithhhhh> none /proc proc defaults 0 0
[01:30] <keithhhhh> /dev/hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0
[01:30] <gordonjcp> the "right" way to do it is to have the hardware clock at UTC
[01:31] <keithhhhh> any advice?
[01:31] <IdleOne> !language | wanger
[01:31] <ubotu> wanger: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:31] <wanger> steel_lady: and the time of year, i found it a bit of a nightmare to wrap my brain around what was going on =)
[01:31] <gordonjcp> wanger: that way you can say that your hardware clock is either the onboard clock or an external clock source with no problems ;-)
[01:31] <steel_lady> wanger but I think it also might be the battery in his case
[01:32] <nb_au> Sometyimes when i open a program either its height or width is sert to the screen size and cant be changed?
[01:33] <wanger> steel_lady: i'd say that's unlikely if your clock's out by ~exactly 5 hours, which i'd imagine it is
[01:34] <nb_au> any ideas?
[01:34] <steel_lady> wanger he is not at home now and i don't remember if it was 5 hours exactly
[01:34] <uptownben> Hi all. I've been seeing some wierd behavior on my notebook running ubuntu. After a short while sitting idle the screen saver kicks in and my wifi card (pcmcia) shuts down. anyone seen this before?

[01:45] <IdleOne> null__: np
[01:45] <nb_au> johnny well if they dont work as-is, you could try using ndiswrapper
[01:45] <nb_au> daedra: probably XFCE
[01:45] <null__> IdleOne: in etch the package is called like this. but i can't find this package on the ubuntu here
[01:45] <dbe> nb_au: And GNOME is part of the GNU project, KDE is not.

[01:48] <lindar> #winehq is kinda empty, but I'm having a problem. For some reason on my husband's machine (a dell laptop refurb), when I run FL Studio 7, the CPU usage meter jumps up to 99% when nothing on the machine is being used, so no matter what, it wont play. What's going on?
[01:49] <dappermuis> lindar: not in direct responbse to your question but have you checked out lmms as an alternative to FL
[01:49] <dappermuis> ?
[01:50] <nb_au> Matic`Makovec: its a ubuntu bug, goto Removable drives and media in preferences and add a "gksudo " to the beginning of the command for cameras

[01:50] <BlackDark> what kernel is the best to use on a via cpu based machine ?
[01:50] <BlackDark> i386 or generic ?
[01:50] <dappermuis> lindar: LMMS aims to be a free alternative to popular (but commercial and closed- source) programs like FruityLoops, Cubase and Logic giving you the ability of ...
[01:50] <stolp> Hi, I'm having problems connecting to imap in ubuntu. Tested ecolution and thunderbird. Allthough telnet to the same imap server works. Anyone got ideas?
[01:50] <nb_au> Meroigo: goto ubuntu.com and search for Tribe 5 or Tribe 6, should list some of the new features on the alpha test download page
[01:50] <IdleOne> null__: yes there is because I use it. ( you running xchat-gnome? )
[01:50] <dappermuis> lindar: lmms.sourceforge.net/
[01:50] <Matic`Makovec> nb_au, hm, where is that Removable drives section supposed to be?
[01:51] <Meroigo> nb_au: okay
[01:51] <nb_au> Matic`Makovec: System -> Preferences
[01:51] <null__> IdleOne: yes i have xchat-gnome installed. like a default install, i didn't change since "welcome to ubuntu" after install
[01:51] <lindar> I'll check it out. Awesome.
[01:51] <johnnylittle> it doesn't show any devices
[01:52] <IdleOne> null__: ok try this  apt-cache search xchat-common tell me what it shows you
[01:52] <Matic`Makovec> nb_au, great, thanks. I'll test it out now
[01:52] <nb_au> johnnylittle: okay, your probably better off searching ubuntuforums for this next bit but do a search on ndiswrapper there and you should find the relevant instructions
[01:52] <johnnylittle> i'll just do it tomorrow
[01:52] <lindar> By any chance would anybody know of an open source or free (linux) version of Rosetta Stone?
[01:52] <null__> IdleOne: will do..
[01:52] <johnnylittle> thanks
[01:52] <nb_au> lindar: whats it do?
[01:53] <lindar> Language aquisition.
[01:53] <DuClare> what does that mean..
[01:53] <nb_au> lol
[01:53] <nb_au> yeah, what does it do exactly
[01:54] <Matic`Makovec> Hrm, I got that sudo popup now, entered the password and again nothing happened after entering the password :x
[01:54] <lindar> Rosetta Stone? Well... it's supposed to teach you to speak a foreign language the same way a child does. It speaks to you in whatever language you've installed, and it shows you pictures.
[01:54] <danya> hello .. I'm having problems with aMSN .. when I launch it .. and click on the tray icon .. It doesnt work ..
[01:54] <nb_au> Matic`Makovec: u added that gksudo bit to the beginning, not replaced right?
[01:54] <lindar> For example, it'll have three pictures, one with a person that's blonde, brunette, and one with red hair. It'll say in whatever language, "The girl has red hair." and then you click on the one with the red hair.
[01:54] <lindar> It never says a word in English.
[01:54] <nb_au> lindar: id imagine thered be similar programs, though i dont know the names of any
[01:55] <IdleOne> lindar: I dont think there are any linux versions
[01:55] <Matic`Makovec> nb_au, gksudo gnome-volume-manager-gthumb %h <-- this is how I have it there under Cameras section
[01:55] <nb_au> and it doesnt open the Camera dialog?
[01:55] <lindar> I'm just looking for something similar. Does anybody know of any linux-based language aquisition programs?
[01:55] <Matic`Makovec> It opens that dialog where I click the "Import pictures" and then I enter the sudo password
[01:55] <Matic`Makovec> And...that's it, nothing happens afterwards
[01:56] <nb_au> Matic`Makovec: check your home folder
[01:56] <nb_au> :P
[01:56] <daedra> rosetta stone is sickwicked
[01:56] <null__> IdleOne: ok. guess i have to leave channel to uninstall xchat :)
[01:56] <daedra> can't think of any comparisons
[01:56] <IdleOne> lindar: thats what i mean I dont believe there are any programs like that for linux due to the amount of manpower and time it would take to create/maintain such a application
[01:56] <null__> apt-cache search xchat | awk '{ print $1 }' | xargs apt-get remove && apt-get install xchat-common
[01:56] <null__> <- quit

[01:57] <DIL_> trigeer
[01:57] <Matic`Makovec> nb_au, there aren't any pictures in /home/matic . Does it create a special folder for them?
[01:57] <nb_au> Matic`Makovec: yes should be dated
[01:57] <nb_au> 2007-xx-yy
[01:58] <nb_au> or something like that
[01:58] <slimjimflim> has anybody managed to play counterstrike in wine?
[01:58] <DIL_> quit

[02:13] <bullgard4> Why does dist-upgrade retain the package dpkg-dev? (http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/14688/)
[02:13] <null__> only kernel can init a reboot, i think...

[02:15] <Plantain> Hey, under OS X I'm used to two finger scrolling, where I can drag two fingers rather than one across my touchpad to scroll up/down a page, is there a way to do this under Ubuntu?
[02:15] <teqin> did the wiki page (or its content) move to some other address ?
[02:16] <jxxxt> nb-au, usually it is a change page but I do not think it is flash

[02:16] <teqin> Jack_Sparrow: ok. but I have a little different problem
[02:16] <jxxxt> Jack_Sparrow, not sure that it is flash   seems to happen when several pages are open

[02:20] <teqin> Jack_Sparrow: and HAL (i think) wrote to /etc/fstab the same device UUID for both hda7 and hdb5
[02:20] <jxxxt> Jack_Sparrow, Hmmn! you might have some thing there before the computer goes down the last page does not load correctly
[02:20] <teqin> Jack_Sparrow: so now when i click (in gui) on /media/hda7 i get contents of hdb5.
[02:21] <Jack_Sparrow> teqin: You can post your fstab to the pastebin if you want us to look
[02:21] <teqin> i removed hda7 line from /etc/fstab
[02:21] <jxxxt> Jack_Sparrow, I will reduce my multi tasking and see if that does make a difference
[02:21] <teqin> Jack_Sparrow: ill use paste...
[02:22] <Jack_Sparrow> teqin: Pastebing.. do NOT paste in channel
[02:23] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: I did now, but I don't know the best way to do that.  I would just copy them over.  I suppose you could make /var/cache/apt/archives/ a symlink too
[02:24] <ubuntu> neo_user
[02:24] <ubuntu> hello
[02:24] <teqin> Jack-Sparrow: paste of my /etc/fstab: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36770/
[02:24] <ezra64> hello!
[02:24] <teqin> but, as I sad earlier, i deleted hda7 line from the file.
[02:25] <ardo> hello
[02:25] <ardo> hello ubuntu freaks
[02:25] <ubuntu> a noob would like to ask... i had an installation of ubuntu 7.04 then i installed windows vista now i can't boot to my ubuntu OS and it always defaults to vista.  how do i fix this to give me a choice which to boot? thanks
[02:25] <Jack_Sparrow> teqin: I dont know if the diskmounter script works with the new uuid thing
[02:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !grub
[02:26] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:26] <teqin> also, i used "hal-device --remove" command to remove entry with hda7 and wrong uuid
[02:26] <Jack_Sparrow> teqin: One sec while I look it over and check something
[02:26] <rx> hi. what can i do to view a window that is too tall to be viewed completely? the latest ati drivers display too much options with no scrollbar :|
[02:26] <Jack_Sparrow> teqin: Do you know the uuid of hda7?
[02:26] <ubuntu> im a noob and i don't wanna mess up the installs can anyone step me through? thanks
[02:26] <rx> i need at least to see the options (maybe i dont need em)
[02:27] <rx> can i take a snapshot of a window even if its not completely displayed?
[02:27] <teqin> i think that the root of the problem is that hal-device command sees both hda7 and hdb5 with the same "volume.uuid".
[02:27] <teqin> i don't know how to get uuid from ntfs filesystem. (how HAL get's it)
[02:27] <CuriousYellow> hi
[02:28] <teqin> ill paste hal-device output...
[02:28] <rausb0> teqin: blkid /dev/hda7
[02:28] <pigasus> #irc.degaff.net
[02:29] <CuriousYellow> i've just insalled Compiz-fusion using the Wiki, every thing is fine although I'm trying to find an authentication key for the sources it instructs you to add to the sources.list ppa.launchpad.net
[02:29] <teqin> paste of hal-device output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36771/
[02:30] <teqin> rausb0: thanks
[02:30] <mauri> hi all..someone can help me in order t ocnfigure my webcam
[02:30] <CuriousYellow> apt-get keeps giving me authentication warnings
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> rausb0: that didnt give me the full uuid
[02:31] <Jack_Sparrow> CuriousYellow: WHat sources did you add?
[02:31] <teqin> but blkid didnt give me uuid, only filesystem type (ntfs).
[02:31] <CuriousYellow> Jack_Sparrow: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/amaranth/ubuntu feisty main
[02:31] <tatters> decided to switch my home network over fully, to ubuntu linux,there will be no window boxes on my network nor in the future, and wondering about which is best NFS or Samba
[02:31] <mattrixx653> test
[02:31] <rausb0> Jack_Sparrow: but blkid is what udev uses to create /dev/disk-by-uuid/
[02:32] <Jack_Sparrow> CuriousYellow: Were there instructions on the site about the gpg key?
[02:32] <dappermuis> tatters: if you're just going to have linux boxes then I'd go with nfs
[02:32] <CuriousYellow> no, this is the page i used: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion
[02:32] <erf3d> hi all
[02:32] <tatters> dappermuis: yup just linux
[02:32] <mandh> i have file "test"  , and want to remove the last 30 line of the file , any idea plz
[02:32] <teqin> so the actual question is: how to make HAL see proper (and different) UUIDs for both NTFS filesystems
[02:33] <dappermuis> tatters: then go for nfs
[02:33] <Jack_Sparrow> rausb0: What can I enter on a command line to get the full uuid  ...  sudo vol_id -u device    ?
[02:33] <rausb0> Jack_Sparrow: maybe. try it. i don't have any ntfs partitions here.
[02:33] <sam__> Does anybody know an easy way to resize lvm partitions?
[02:34] <teqin> i tried to restart udev and to restart whole machine but it didnt help.
[02:34] <mauri> hi all..someone can help me in order t ocnfigure my webcam
[02:34] <teqin> sam__: lvresize command
[02:34] <tatters> how do u create a roaming profile in a linux network, is there any package that I need?
[02:34] <teqin> sam__: but first you must resize (shrink) the filesystem on lvvolume
[02:36] <rx> hey
[02:36] <N3oXid> Hi.
[02:36] <teqin> Jack_Sparrow: ill try the vol_id command...
[02:36] <rx> what can i do to view the content of a window which is too big?
[02:36] <rx> i cant get high res, of course
[02:36] <Gosh1> So, how do I add my own applications to the gnome menu? (F.i i've compiled pidgin myself, how do I add it to the list?)
[02:37] <N3oXid> I've got a problem with a S-ATA RAID controler card?
[02:37] <N3oXid> Looking for some help.
[02:38] <teqin> "vol_id -u /dev/hda7" gives me the same UUID as "vol_id -u /dev/hdb5". Result is "A04C8AAA4C8A7AB4". Is this a bug ?
[02:38] <Jack_Sparrow> teqin: Try that diskmounter link... save it to your desktop and run it
[02:38] <wers> I am running Thunderbird's accound wizard for the first time and I do not understand the "Server" stuff

[02:55] <Invisionfree> ezra64: How?>
[02:55] <Jack_Sparrow> I have a persistent mode usb.  I want to have any downloads that would normally go into var/cache/apt/archives to end up on the stick for transfer to a non networked machine.  How do I do this, and how hard would it be to have a script on the usb that would set it up that way?
[02:56] <ezra64> during the install it prompts for partitioning
[02:56] <Ethan> Invisionfree: I am not sure that's fully safe
[02:56] <ezra64> select the partition and then select edit
[02:56] <Invisionfree> ezra64: It always says it can't complete the operation.
[02:56] <ezra64> well, a full backup is reccomnended
[02:56] <loudmicro> alsa is the devil T-T
[02:57] <Invisionfree> Honestly, if I lose it, no big deal..Just wanted to try and save my MP3s/Movies
[02:57] <ezra64> there may be something going on then, i rezized my vista partition to make room
[02:57] <Invisionfree> I go try again >.<

[03:02] <axel_s> rausb0, why does ubuntu use scsi emulation?

[03:05] <digitalspaghetti> Jack_Sparrow, it's a VPS, so it's only running apache2, mysql and php5
[03:05] <rausb0> digitalspaghetti: something eats up your memory. try running "top" in a terminal and press "M" for sorting by mem usage.
[03:05] <Grungebunny> does k9copy work fairly well?
[03:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Grungebunny: yes
[03:06] <digitalspaghetti> rausb0, when i try to top i get the -bash: fork: Cannot allocate memory
[03:06] <Grungebunny> jack_sparrow does it make the iso of sorts so you can easily burn to dvd?
[03:06] <digitalspaghetti> i'll reboot see if i can do it
[03:06] <rausb0> digitalspaghetti: do you have a gui running?
[03:06] <digitalspaghetti> rausb0, no just logging in remotly using ssh
[03:07] <digitalspaghetti> command line
[03:07] <dbanie> hi...im using feasty on ACER Aspire 4310,but cannot use my modem,i already detected using scanModem,the modem vendor is conexant, does anyone now the driver for conexant on ACER 4310

[03:09] <booster> ok ill look it up
[03:10] <rausb0> booster: first of all you have to identify which chipset your card has

[03:15] <savetheWorld> !guide
[03:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about guide - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:15] <Ethan> Michael : not really but this version works fine for me
[03:15] <savetheWorld> !setup
[03:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about setup - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:15] <usser> president: lost? can u be more specific?
[03:15] <IgorSobreira> i found a bug in ubuntu 7.04...i cant enter any folder in nautilus...how can i report it?
[03:15] <Vendeta> can someone help me in checking whether filesharing is working in my xchat??? i recently started using IRC
[03:15] <administrator> hi
[03:15] <president> no i can find my ways here and there
[03:15] <savetheWorld> !install
[03:15] <ubotu> 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
[03:15] <Ethan> Michael: chech internet first to see if someone has managed to install Ubuntu with your laptop
[03:16] <president> it's just my printer whos giving me a rough time
[03:16] <Michael> Ok, thanks for the info.
[03:16] <digitalspaghetti> rausb0, ok I'm getting memory allocation errors on my site now, but i'm still not out of memory, there is still 215460k free
[03:16] <petali> #mexico irc.sega.com
[03:16] <president> i just discovered that you dont just click install and go take a coffee
[03:17] <Jack_Sparrow> IgorSobreira: that isnt common, please explain.. have you done many things as root?  have you used Envy or automatix?
[03:17] <president> i just add this program to chat
[03:17] <rausb0> digitalspaghetti: memory allocation errors also occur if a program requests more memory than availble
[03:17] <usser> president: hehe well welcome ))), which model is that, a good source for print info on linux is www.linuxprinting.org
[03:17] <president> this thing about dependacies is complicated
[03:17] <szachista> hi
[03:18] <szachista> is it possible to have console background?
[03:18] <szachista> i mean tty, not gnome-console or other emulators
[03:18] <tatters> been trying to work out the best way to have my home folder follow me on my home network
[03:18] <usser> president: hm dependencies are not complicated, they usually are taken care of for u if u use synaptic or apt to install programs
[03:18] <president> i dowload the driver use the so command and an error shows up
[03:18] <president> su
[03:19] <president> su - then make
[03:19] <rausb0> szachista: do you mean changing background color or having a background pic in console?
[03:19] <usser> szachista: ctlr+alt+f1 takes u to console ctrl+alt+f7 takes u back
[03:19] <Pici> !sudo | president
[03:19] <ubotu> president: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:19] <IgorSobreira> Jack_Sparrow: no...i've just tried to open a folder in nautilus...but it closes an opens again in same place...with a bug-log.txt
[03:20] <szachista> rausb0: i mean having background pic
[03:20] <szachista> rausb0: i was using bootsplash, but is dead now and i'm looking for some alternatives
[03:20] <szachista> i wonder if usplash/splashy from ubuntu can do that
[03:20] <rausb0> szachista: in frambuffer text console it's not possible without patching the kernel. in vga 80x25 text console it's impossible.
[03:21] <Jack_Sparrow> IgorSobreira: I just cant see it as a bug.  It seems that something has been done to change or mess it up..
[03:21] <Xero> Sweet. Awn has a notify area.
[03:21] <szachista> rausb0: what patch do i need?
[03:21] <IgorSobreira> Jack_Sparrow: hm..maybe i need to upgrade it...
[03:21] <rausb0> szachista: don't know. i don't care about bg pics in console.
[03:21] <shwouchk> How can I use my gentoo server to pass on dhcp to another machine? (does it have to be some sort of NAT, or can I create a 'virtual nic' to connect to my router?

[03:30] <SubSonik> greetings all
[03:30] <president> ok i know this command a bit thanls rausb0
[03:30] <Aminux___> can i use the tv option on ubuntu?
[03:30] <nannan> I am running out of space in my root partition. I want to mount /usr and /var to another partition. Can I jus copy the two folders as such to the new partition and then set soft links to /usr and /var. I am constrained to try someother things as resizing with live CD as I am runnin Ubuntu on my VMWare
[03:31] <aguitel> Ethan ,somebody say to use this command in neccesary case to repair instalation with live cd
[03:31] <rausb0> president: if you know this command, why do you download gcc as a .tar.gz archive?
[03:31] <SubSonik> Having a bit of problems with modelines. can anyone offer some help?
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> nannan: you can burn var/cache/apt/archives to a cd or dvd to get some breathing room..
[03:31] <president> now question usser: now that ive dl this crap, then unzipped it ? should I format ? -kidding
[03:31] <Aminux___> when i try to connect to the tv i cant get a signal
[03:31] <rausb0> president: which "crap" do you refer to?
[03:31] <president> gcc
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> nannan: I am looking to move that folder to a dif partition.. I think all I need is an fstab entry

[03:33] <Xero> me___, try 'sudo passwd'
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> !root | me___
[03:33] <ubotu> me___: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[03:33] <nannan> Jack_Sparrow: /var/cache isn't that big enough .. I need more space
[03:33] <Aminux___> SubSonik: what graphic card do you use?

[03:34] <ubotu> jewels: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[03:34] <bullgard4> Using a 2.6.20generic kernel and a laptop computer, how can I access the SysRq function of the PntScr/SysRq key? The procedure outlined in /usr/src/linux-sources-2.6.20/Documentation/sysrq.txt fails.

[03:35] <Aminux___> SubSonik: i guess we use diferent drivers

[03:37] <SubSonik> Can anyone help me out with a modeline problem?
[03:37] <LadyNikon> SubSonik: ask your question..
[03:38] <siringha> engine
[03:38] <jenda> How can I make openoffice actually use a myspell dictionary that I installed? (Czech language)
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> jewels: What happens when you plug in a usb deive, have you tried more than one device?
[03:38] <LadyNikon> maybe someone will know
[03:38] <president> yes i' m sure according to my researches -- here is my link and driver name http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/
[03:38] <SubSonik> LadyNikon, Basically, I cannot get it to work. The resolution works, but the overscanning is still there.
[03:38] <jewels> yes i tried my camera, PDA etc... and it does nothing
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> jewels: Is that one device,,
[03:39] <SubSonik> I was trying to use xvidtune, but no matter what I do with it, it tells me my settings are wrong.
[03:39] <jrib> jenda: tool -> options -> language (or similar)  then make sure your default language is cz and it has an "ABC" with a checkmark to the left.  Do the same for the spellcheck language in "Writing Aids"
[03:39] <jewels> no it is 3 different devices
[03:39] <SubSonik> I used the online modline generators, but no luck.
[03:39] <uptownben> If I leave my ubuntu machine idle for a few minutes, the pcmcia network card goes down and the system locks up.. what could it be?
[03:39] <jenda> jrib: but I don't want it to be default
[03:39] <MaRoUaNe_> hello everyone , I want to install modem in my computer , I have sagem eagle4, I did everything in the forum and I installed it and configured connexion, but I don't know how to log in internet , I have feisty
[03:39] <president> i'ts an HP laserjet 1018... But my question had also general interest. I'm a bit confused regarding of how external program should be installed (zipped or package)
[03:39] <Turbooster> I changed from typer to chooser (or whatever they are called) in 'Users and groups' and now I have to connect via XDMP wich I don't want to do and can't. How to change this back in recovery mode?
[03:39] <rausb0> president: so which printer of those do you have?
[03:39] <uptownben> just about when the screen saver should start up.
[03:39] <jenda> jrib: and no, it doesn't have the ABC checkmark
[03:40] <SubSonik> keymaster: any ideas?
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> jewels: HAd to ask with the new multi function devices.. supported usb devices just show up...  you may want to look at the link for hardware for info on specific devices.
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware | jewels
[03:40] <ubotu> jewels: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:40] <shwouchk> I keep getting errors such as: "No program "lvdisplay" found for your current version of LVM" whenever I try to do any lvm operation... why?
[03:41] <Michael> Is wine just a program that runs with .exe extensions or does it work like gnome too ? (confused and new to linux  ^_^ )
[03:41] <jrib> jenda: did you restart openoffice after installing the package?
[03:41] <jenda> jrib: yes, and the computer
[03:41] <zachary> where is sources.list?
[03:42] <vreer> zachary: /etc/apt
[03:42] <zachary> thANKS
[03:42] <jrib> jenda: are you on feisty?  I installed myspell-cs-cz, restart OOo writer and Czech has the "ABC" now
[03:42] <CuriousYellow> Michael: Wine allows you to run Windows applications on Linux.
[03:42] <jenda> jrib: yes, on feisty :/
[03:42] <jewels_> could it be that my portable is not compatible with ubuntu. I know that when i install a regular windows XP  there is about 10 drivers are not installed but if i use the recovery cd all the drivers are tere
[03:42] <jenda> jrib: and it doesn't have the ABC - i tried to set it default "for this document only", still nothing
[03:43] <jrib> jenda: how about when you go to "writing aids" and set it for the spellchecker?
[03:43] <ksivaji> .pk3 is a compressed file is there any tool in ubuntu to uncompress it
[03:43] <rausb0> president: and you already tried with the cups drivers provided by ubuntu?
[03:44] <Michael> CuriousYellow: So It can not be used as a kind of an emulator... Than what is that that I see on the net about Wine Desktop ?
[03:44] <SubSonik> Can anyone help get my modeline working? I have tried xvidtune, editing xorg.conf, and the online modeline generators but no luck.
[03:44] <shwouchk> I keep getting errors such as: "No program "lvdisplay" found for your current version of LVM" whenever I try to do any lvm operation... why?
[03:44] <shwouchk> How can I use my ubuntu server to pass on dhcp to another machine? (does it have to be some sort of NAT, or can I create a 'virtual nic' to connect to my router?)
[03:45] <Turbooster> How can I disable a XDMCP-login in recoverymode to be able to login like normal?
[03:45] <Martin^_-> My mouse freezez sometimes in ubuntu, i have tryed almost everything. Am kinda new to linux and i WANT to learn more but the mouse issue its making it hard for me, if someone could spend some time with me and help me solve this freaking annoying mouseproblem!
[03:45] <jenda> jrib: bingo ;)
[03:45] <jenda> jrib: thanks
[03:46] <jenda> jrib: it took a while to find the required checkbox there, but it was there afterall.
[03:46] <amee2k> if i grep a file like "grep -v regex file", how can i redirect grep's output to the file it is grepping?
[03:46] <Johto> Martin^_-: USB or PS2 ?
[03:46] <Martin^_-> Optical USB
[03:46] <rausb0> president: btw, printer manufacturers like hp and minolta should be boycotted for not giving support to the open source driver developers
[03:46] <jenda> amee2k: how about grep -v regex file >> file ?
[03:46] <Martin^_-> I have seen on the internet that many have the same issue
[03:46] <CuriousYellow> Michael: it's not an Emulator, more like compatibility layer. You can install Wine using Synaptic, or going to the command line and typing 'sudo apt-get wine'
[03:47] <Johto> Markos: do you have PS2 port in your computer? try that..it seems you have problems with USB devices, check BIOS settings too
[03:47] <Martin^_-> But i dont find a working answer
[03:47] <Johto> Martin^_-: do you have PS2 port in your computer? try that..it seems you have problems with USB devices, check BIOS settings too
[03:47] <usser> Michael: wine is a sort of an emulator. But not really its just an alternative implementation of windows API functions, it allows windows programs to communicate with linux,unix systems by translating windows commands into linux ones
[03:47] <amee2k> jenda: `grep -v regex file >file` wipes the file when it opens it, so grep will open an empty file. >> appends to the file
[03:47] <CuriousYellow> Michael: you can then run .exe programs by typing wine program.exe
[03:47] <Martin^_-> I dont got a mouse with PS2
[03:47] <Johto> Martin^_-: ok, try to investigate if some BIOS settings are wrong...
[03:47] <usser> rausb0: hp?? hp is pretty cool i think
[03:47] <Martin^_-> Johto, they work perfectly in windows
[03:47] <Johto> Martin^_-: seems like your usb "hangs"
[03:48] <jenda> amee2k: I aparently didn't get your question then :)
[03:48] <Martin^_-> Is there a special nios for linux?
[03:48] <Martin^_-> biis*
[03:48] <Martin^_-> bios*
[03:48] <rausb0> usser: http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/ look at this page
[03:48] <usser> rausb0: got linux drivers and everything, best printing support for linux i ever seen
[03:48] <Johto> Martin^_-: no
[03:48] <SubSonik> Can anyone help get my modeline working? I have tried xvidtune, editing xorg.conf, and the online modeline generators but no luck.
[03:48] <Martin^_-> Johto but it works in windows, why do i have to change anything then.
[03:48] <Johto> Martin^_-: i was just thingking if your computer bios had some weird settings relative to usb..
[03:48] <Michael> CuriousYellow , usser : Ok, that I know "program".exe But thanks for giving me info about it not being an emulator :)
[03:48] <Martin^_-> Johto i go to bios and have a look
[03:48] <amee2k> jenda: i want to grep the file. grep dumps the output to its stdout. i want to redirect its stdout to the file it is grepping
[03:48] <jenda> amee2k: ah, now I do... perhaps "grep -v regex file > tempfile ; mv tempfile file" ?
[03:49] <Martin^_-> i'll be back!
[03:49] <amee2k> jenda: that is what i'm doing now, but i was hoping for a way to get rid of the temporary
[03:49] <amee2k> it really is annoying and i'm grepping rather large files (> 1G)
[03:50] <jenda> amee2k: I see. I don't know how to do that, sorry.
[03:50] <amee2k> hm...
[03:50] <rausb0> usser: they used to have good linux support, but they keep changing printers to totally different protocols w/o providing drivers and that sucks
[03:50] <jrib> amee2k: seems like you want sed, not grep
[03:50] <president> you're right rausb0 they should be boycotted (but it's a good product though) I went through the unexisting online chat service this morning
[03:50] <amee2k> hm...
[03:50] <amee2k> jrib: i'll have a look
[03:51] <Slyker> Hello I started using Ubuntu a little while ago but I have been having trouble writing to my removable hard drive
[03:51] <president> what command EXACTLY should I use for gcc ? sudo ...etc
[03:51] <Michael> One more thing, What type should I use when formating the hard ? ext3 ?
[03:51] <rausb0> president: when you follow the instructions on the foo2zjs web site, where do you get stuck?
[03:51] <b0uncer> Michael: that depends on what you need. Most people are ok with ext3
[03:52] <usser> rausb0: hm
[03:52] <zippyy> Michael, ext3 seems like the way to go although i prefer rieserfs
[03:52] <president> rausb0 i just copy paste the problem : IT returns as an error
[03:52] <rausb0> president: but please to do not paste here
[03:52] <rausb0> president: use phpfi.com to paste
[03:53] <president> np
[03:53] <Slyker> is there a way to change the default mount options so that I can by default write on my removable drive?
[03:53] <SubSonik> Can anyone help get my modeline working? I have tried xvidtune, editing xorg.conf, and the online modeline generators but no luck.
[03:54] <i3luefire> hello all
[03:54] <osxdude|laptop> !modeline
[03:54] <ubotu> A Modeline is a config line in the X server configuration file that gives info about a connected display and how to drive it at a specified display resolution. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFree86_Modeline for more details. Here are 2 links to generate modelines which fit your monitor: http://bohne-lang.de/spec/linux/modeline/ and http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl
[03:55] <Michael> Does Ubuntu format Everything od can I select what drive to format ?
[03:55] <Martin^_-> Am back
[03:55] <osxdude|laptop> SubSonik. Regenerate the xorg.conf. The command is in the xorg.conf
[03:55] <osxdude|laptop> Micheal: Your choice
[03:55] <Martin^_-> I was in bios and looked at the USB configuration, 3 things were enable! " USB Controller " " USB 2.0 Controller " USB Legacy help "
[03:55] <osxdude|laptop> Nice
[03:55] <osxdude|laptop> Now you can USB boot
[03:56] <Martin^_-> what?
[03:56] <Martin^_-> I have a problem with USB mouse, it freezez
[03:56] <Martin^_-> seems like nothings wrong in bios
[03:56] <usser> heheh

[03:56] <fuoco> for some reason my firefox on linux is really heavy, whereas in windows and in mac osx it is really fast - is there some problem with my settings ?
[03:56] <a2> hi
[03:56] <jenda> jrib: gargh, only to find out that the myspell dictionary doesn't know half the words anyway :D
[03:57] <president> Error: /usr/include/stdio.h is not installed!
[03:57] <jrib> jenda: a chance to contribute then ;)
[03:57] <Martin^_-> Johto
[03:57] <Martin^_-> You saw what i typed?
[03:57] <usser> president: gcc is not installed
[03:57] <jenda> jrib: very much so, but only after I hand this in ;) </ot>
[03:57] <Martin^_-> I was in bios and looked at the USB configuration, 3 things were enable! " USB Controller " " USB 2.0 Controller " USB Legacy help "
[03:58] <bruenig> president, ubuntu splits header files, its a pain
[03:58] <rausb0> president: this file should be there if you have build-essential installed
[03:58] <president> sudo apt-get install build-essential i just did that thanks
[03:58] <usser> president: ok do which gcc and paste the output here
[03:58] <bruenig> it isn't installed with gcc
[03:59] <usser> bruenig: are u sure???
[03:59] <SubSonik> osxdude|laptop: I know the command and the syntax, and I have made the modeline with different resolutions, refresh rates, etc. but it grabs the resolution and leaves the overscan
[03:59] <ckd> everybody can help me with avant? http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/14694/
[03:59] <usser> bruenig: im pretty sure it is
[03:59] <president> /usr/bin/gcc
[03:59] <bruenig> !find /usr/include/stdio.h
[03:59] <rausb0> bruenig: it is
[03:59] <usser> bruenig: at least stdio.h
[03:59] <ubotu> File /usr/include/stdio.h found in libc6-dev
[03:59] <bruenig> no
[03:59] <Martin^_-> My mouse freezez sometimes in ubuntu, i have tryed almost everything. Am kinda new to linux and i WANT to learn more but the mouse issue its making it hard for me, if someone could spend some time with me and help me solve this freaking annoying mouseproblem!
[03:59] <rausb0> bruenig: i mean gcc
[03:59] <Tonar> after the boot sequence there are still messages coming which destroy my tty1 login prompt?
[03:59] <rausb0> bruenig: /usr/bin/gcc is installed with gcc
[03:59] <rahim> while shutdown / is busy message is displyaed
[03:59] <bruenig> rausb0, yeah but that wasn't the question
[04:00] <usser> bruenig: well ye gcc depends on libc so it gets installed with it
[04:00] <rausb0> bruenig: /usr/include/stdio.h is in libc6-dev, but that one should be installed by build-essential
[04:00] <rahim> and it never shutdown
[04:00] <osxdude|laptop> SubSonik. Hmmm...did you search the forums?
[04:00] <rahim> yes
[04:00] <usser> bruenig: unless of course he didnt install from the net
[04:00] <bruenig> usser, are you sure? I don't think it is
[04:00] <rahim> no answer yet
[04:00] <Martin^_-> My mouse freezez sometimes in ubuntu, i have tryed almost everything. Am kinda new to linux and i WANT to learn more but the mouse issue its making it hard for me, if someone could spend some time with me and help me solve this freaking annoying mouseproblem!
[04:01] <rausb0> usser, bruenig: libc6-dev is a dependency of build-essential, so it should be installed
[04:01] <SubSonik> osxdude: yep. found the free online modeline generators and tried those with different parameters jsut in case. Also got some tips on trying xvidtune but it doesn't let me change the screen size
[04:01] <NuCobra> ompaul, ok so now how do i get it to update?
[04:01] <bruenig> rausb0, it is, but he was asking him to see if gcc was installed as some sort of measurement of whether stdio.h was installed and that is a flawed way to do so
[04:01] <usser> bruenig: oh turns oout libc6 is not a dependent its recomended wow ))
[04:01] <Johto> Martin^_-: what other USB devices you have currently CONNECTED?
[04:01] <Martin^_-> Hmm
[04:01] <rahim> any body elp
[04:01] <Martin^_-> Only mouse
[04:01] <osxdude|laptop> SubSonik, what kind of Video card do you have
[04:01] <adib> which program do I use to convert wmv videos to mpeg for DVD creation ?
[04:02] <amee2k> jrib: sed dumps its results to stdout too :(
[04:02] <SubSonik> osxdude, GeForce 6500
[04:02] <e\ectro_> what is the best way to clone an ubuntu install
[04:02] <e\ectro_> ?
[04:02] <burepe> does ubuntu have support for firewire?
[04:02] <osxdude|laptop> lol I have a GeForce 5600 SubSonik
[04:02] <bruenig> amee2k, if you want sed not to dump the results to stdout, use -i
[04:02] <Johto> Martin^_-: when and how long are these "pauses" ?
[04:02] <i3luefire> i am new to ubuntu and new to Linux i have been using linux for about 2 months now and i have installed many different versions of ubuntu to find the one that works best for me but my girlfriend and the rest of the people that use my computer still want to use windows xp    so my problem is i need to uninstall all of the different versions of ubuntu that show up in my grub boot loader and...
[04:02] <i3luefire> ...reinstall the one that i like the most and then make windows xp the default OS on the grub loader i have tried to make it the default several different times by editing the "/boot/grub/menu.lst file" but i was unsuccessful can anyone here help me?
[04:02] <SubSonik> osxdude, they are good cards
[04:02] <Martin^_-> Untill i restart my comp
[04:02] <Plantain> Hey, my iBook G4 with Ubuntu 7.04 doesn't sleep when I close the lid, how can I get it to sleep?
[04:02] <Martin^_-> If your meaning the freezez
[04:03] <Johto> Martin^_-: freezes?
[04:03] <osxdude|laptop> SubSonik, yup. What kind of connection are you using? I mean monitor.
[04:03] <Johto> Martin^_-: what do you mean by that?
[04:03] <Martin^_-> The mouse just freezez as i said
[04:03] <rausb0> president: ls -l /usr/include/stdio.h
[04:03] <a2> use frostwire
[04:03] <Johto> Martin^_-: list all your hardware so i can undertand better
[04:03] <adib> e\ectro_: use an live boot system and then simply dd the whole disk
[04:03] <NuCobra> how can i update from 6.06 to 7.04?
[04:03] <amee2k> bruenig: ty :)
[04:03] <Johto> Martin^_-: motherboard, cpu etc...
[04:03] <president> rausb0 u da man !
[04:03] <SubSonik> I have the computer plugged in via DVI to my Sony KP-57WS5WS520 tv
[04:04] <bruenig> !upgrading | NuCobra have to go to 6.10 then 7.04
[04:04] <ubotu> NuCobra have to go to 6.10 then 7.04: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes

[04:04] <burepe> a2  is frostwire a package?  Do I just plug and play?
[04:04] <Martin^_-> Johto you got the information in privv
[04:04] <Michael1982> why don't work /list ?
[04:04] <president> lets go to final step and it should work rausb0 (no more dependacies)
[04:04] <Johto> Martin^_-: no i didnt...
[04:04] <e\ectro_> adib: I just want a replica of the packages..  I can do a sudo dpkg --get-selections |grep install > installed-packages.txt  and then just cat installed-packages.txt | xargs sudo apt-get install  but it would take a long time
[04:04] <NuCobra> ubotu, thank you
[04:04] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)

[04:04] <SubSonik> osxdude, I have the computer plugged in via DVI to my Sony KP-57WS5WS520 tv
[04:04] <osxdude|laptop> SubSonik...can you switch to VGA for now? I hear that using DVI to HDMI adapters wont work.
[04:05] <Martin^_-> os: Windows XP Home Edition - SP 2 :: cpu: Intel Core2duo, 1.87 GHz :: mem: 412/2047 MB (20%) :: gfx: MSI NX7600 GT (nVidia GeForce 7600 GT) (1280x1024x32bit 60Hz)
[04:05] <Martin^_-> There you go
[04:05] <Martin^_-> ASUS
[04:05] <Johto> ok
[04:05] <rausb0> president: then i really don't know why foo2zjs doesn't find the file. it's there.
[04:05] <osxdude|laptop> Nice Comp, Martin6_-
[04:05] <Martin^_-> :(
[04:05] <osxdude|laptop> Nice Comp, Martin^_-
[04:05] <Martin^_-> :(
[04:05] <a2> i3luefire: look at 'title......'
[04:05] <SpeCon> Hi all i have some technical questions about ubuntu. When you are running a wireless network at home, is there any problem to access the internet then ? Is there already an utility available into the desktop cd ?
[04:05] <president> it find it now tx again
[04:05] <SubSonik> osxdude, nope, the tv doesn't have vga, just rca, svideo, or DVI. The card has DVI, Svid or vga
[04:06] <Plantain> SpeCon: Ideally, it'll work out of the box
[04:06] <rausb0> president: why didn't find it before?
[04:06] <SpeCon> Plantain: thanks
[04:06] <i3luefire> what? the faq?
[04:06] <adib> e\ectro_: I don't know. In our office we do the dd way, which is create an image and store that back
[04:06] <bruenig> SpeCon, depends on the card
[04:06] <president> sometimes u just need guidance rausb0
[04:06] <rausb0> president: you don't tell us everything
[04:06] <osxdude|laptop> SubSonik. You have a VGA to DVI adapter?
[04:06] <rahim> 13luefire:  edit the menu.lst and change the default number to set XP as default bootup OS
[04:06] <Johto> Martin^_-: all i can guess its somehting in your chipset(usb devices) that bogs down and freezes..its sofware/driver/kernel/module problem..you now just need to figure out the common nominator
[04:06] <Johto> Martin^_-: like trying differend linux distros and stuff..see if it keeps doing the same
[04:06] <Michael1982> why don't work /list ?
[04:06] <SubSonik> osxdude, nope. I have a DVI to DVI cable going from the DVI port on the card to the DVI port on the tv

[04:07] <bruenig> !repeat | Michael1982
[04:07] <ubotu> Michael1982: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[04:07] <b0uncer> Michael1982: you shouldn't be doing that
[04:07] <Martin^_-> Johto why dont ubuntu fix this?
[04:07] <b0uncer> it's a bad idea usually
[04:07] <Tonar> I am using a minial ubuntu installation and my login prompt gets overided with boot messages.
[04:07] <Michael1982> it's the system
[04:07] <a2> in /boot/grub/menu.lst, look at 'default   0' and 'title windows xp'
[04:07] <Johto> Martin^_-: eh? i dont have any problems, you have !
[04:07] <Tonar> How can i prevent it
[04:07] <president> sudo apt-get install build-essential i had to do that (my printer is not fully installed yet but it should work) tx rausb0
[04:07] <SpeCon> Plantain: also when you boot the desktop cd on the computer, you have the incon to install the full installation off ubuntu. Can you tell me what will happen when you double click the incon ? The software will be downloaded and installed with a wizard?
[04:07] <Martin^_-> Johto, alot of people got the same problem as me, you think it would work with a PS2 device?
[04:07] <Martin^_-> cause i got one at hom
[04:07] <Johto> Martin^_-: like i said, i dont believe its the HARDWARE that causes that
[04:07] <i3luefire> ok hold on
[04:07] <osxdude|laptop> See, SubSonik. I have never used  the DVI port on my card. This is difficult
[04:07] <Plantain> SpeCon: It'll install off the CD
[04:07] <Johto> Martin^_-: its someting to do with the USB
[04:07] <a2> 'default 0' means the first line with 'title...' will be the default in booting
[04:08] <osxdude|laptop> Did you try SVid?
[04:08] <bruenig> SpeCon, it's already on the disk
[04:08] <Martin^_-> Then you think it will work with PS2?
[04:08] <SubSonik> osxdude, what gets me is that using modeline to fix the overscan should be the same process no matter what connection, no?
[04:08] <SpeCon> Plantain: Okay thank you, i need to install a computer this evening for a friend with ubuntu thats why i ask these questions. Never installed it myself but i worked on linux in the past allot.
[04:08] <Johto> Martin^_-: try with another distro, use some live-cd distros so its easy and fast to try
[04:08] <Plantain> SpeCon: No problems, should be a breeze
[04:08] <osxdude|laptop> SubSonik, I belive so...
[04:08] <SpeCon> Plantain: Last question, Is ubuntu user friendly for people who never worked with linux... Because the guy doesn't have much computer experience.
[04:08] <Johto> Martin^_-: if your mouse works ok with anotehr distro, then its easy to say its sofware side problem, not your hardare
[04:09] <Johto> hardware
[04:09] <Plantain> SpeCon: It's the friendliest of distros in most peoples opinions
[04:09] <SoulChild> Hey when trying to "modprobe sndihda-intel" i get "FATAL: MOdule does not exists,.. but i have the module file in my kernel path in "/lib/modules/",... what's wrong there???
[04:09] <jacob> how can i watch dvd movies on ubuntu?
[04:09] <Frogzoo> anyone know how to get a jpg logo to display on the console/ttys ?
[04:09] <SpeCon> Plantain: Yes that was my tought to lol
[04:09] <SubSonik> osxdude, so if we assume that to be true, then my problem is, I cannot get the modeline to change the overscan
[04:09] <Johto> Martin^_-: then you can start by thinkering what sofware/driver causes that ...
[04:09] <Frogzoo> jacob: with gxine/vlc/mplayer
[04:09] <a2> if u wanna make the second 'title...' as  default, change 'default 1'
[04:09] <osxdude|laptop> !modeline
[04:09] <ubotu> A Modeline is a config line in the X server configuration file that gives info about a connected display and how to drive it at a specified display resolution. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFree86_Modeline for more details.

[04:10] <ckd>  /exec sayclip
[04:10] <ckd> sayclip
[04:10] <Frogzoo> SoulChild: sudo modprobe ?
[04:10] <sjefen6> This page holds no content: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UniversePackages
[04:10] <osxdude|laptop> SubSonik, can I see you xorg.conf
[04:10] <a2> so, count the line with 'title' from 0 (zero)
[04:10] <SoulChild> Frogzoo: yes i did sudo ,...
[04:10] <SpeCon> Plantain: For example when you download a file from the internet and you want to install the file or program, You don't need to go into console to Unzip the file with tar -xzvf etc ???? because this will be hard for my friend. So its user friendly for normal computer work like downloading programs installing them etc.... Like on windows ?
[04:10] <SoulChild> Frogzoo: i am not thaqt stupid
[04:10] <SubSonik> osxdude, sure, i'll send it in a PM
[04:10] <osxdude|laptop> okay
[04:10] <Veinor> jacob: also, sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[04:10] <Plantain> SpeCon: No, there's a friendly installer named Synaptic
[04:10] <Veinor> otherwise you can't play them.
[04:11] <osxdude|laptop> Just send the Modelin, SubSonik or the Display section
[04:11] <gutts[away] > Ceci est un chan sur debian
[04:11] <Plantain> SpeCon: It lets you search for and install any of the apps in the ubuntu repos (I think there's over 10,000 now?)
[04:11] <SpeCon> Plantain: okay great
[04:11] <Veinor> c'est un chan sur debian en anglais, gutts[away]  :P
[04:11] <Frogzoo> SoulChild: try 'sudo modprobe sndihda_intel'
[04:11] <SpeCon> Plantain: tell me more about it please
[04:12] <Veinor> et c'est sur ubuntu, ne pas debian
[04:12] <SpeCon> Synaptic is a program like winzip or winrar right?
[04:12] <gutts[away] > dsl
[04:12] <SubSonik> Modeline "1280x720@60" 74.48 1280 1336 1472 1664 720 721 724 746 -hsync +vsync
[04:12] <SpeCon> its to unzip files?
[04:12] <SoulChild> Frogzoo: I did !
[04:12] <Plantain> SpeCon: Once you're in Ubuntu, just go System --> Administrator --> Synaptic Package Manager. That's it.
[04:12] <Veinor> specon: no, it's something that isn't like really anything in windows
[04:12] <b0uncer> SpeCon: it takes some time to get used to the "Linux way" of doing things if you're moving from another OS, say Windows, but if you're a complete computer newbie, it should be easier to learn things from start, than re-learn things differently..in my opinion over the years is that nowadays Linux can be more user-friendly than any other OS (except for Mac OS X maybe, they're on the same line).
[04:12] <SubSonik> mode "1280x720@60"
[04:12] <SpeCon> Plantain: okay and you will find 10 000 numbers of software in there right?
[04:12] <Plantain> Yes
[04:12] <Veinor> specon: yeah.
[04:12] <SpeCon> like Amsn and stuff like that
[04:12] <SpeCon> niceeeeeeeee
[04:12] <SpeCon> ;)
[04:13] <Frogzoo> SoulChild: s/-/_/
[04:13] <SubSonik> from monitor and screen sections respectively
[04:13] <a2> if u see 'title  WINDOWS XP' in the 4th group of 'title', then fill 'default 5'

[04:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about man chroot - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:13] <SpeCon> Plantain: Thanks for the assist, i appreciate it :) cya later
[04:13] <Martin^_-> Johto, a guy said " This really worked for me. I'm already working an hour without a freezing mouse. " after he disable USB Legacy
[04:13] <Martin^_-> think it worth a try?
[04:14] <Plantain> SpeCon: fyi, there's 27309 packages in the normal repositories ;)
[04:14] <president> rausb0 it does't work ..
[04:14] <faileas> aguitel: try man chroot in console ;p

[04:14] <SpeCon> Plantain: Sorry one more question, How much will a full installation take on the hardisk ?
[04:14] <president> i m on the .ppd driver installation
[04:14] <Plantain> SpeCon: Less than 2GB
[04:14] <SpeCon> Plantain: because i gonna install ubuntu on this computer aswell
[04:14] <SpeCon> Plantain: okay thanks
[04:14] <jacob> veinor i get "E: Packate libdvdcss2 has no installation candidate'
[04:14] <Plantain> Veinor: apt-cache stats | grep Total
[04:15] <kenjy> guys I have xubuntu installed in spanish, but all my gnome apps (gnomebaker, soundjuicer, gnome-cd, gnome-record ...) are in english, is there a way to change them to spanish (my little sister only talk spanish jeje)
[04:15] <b0uncer> ksivaji: isn't that some game file?
[04:15] <Veinor> jacob: oh right, hold on a sec.
[04:15] <drock> My Gnome desktop and panels take forever to come up after a reboot or login.
[04:15] <ksivaji> b0uncer it is a game file
[04:15] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: 2GB is a lower bound. i'd reserve 4-6 to have lots of space for future packages :)
[04:15] <b0uncer> ksivaji: why do you want to extract it? :)
[04:15] <b0uncer> try PeaZip if nothing else works
[04:16] <howlingmadhowie> drock: is it waiting for something? try booting without the splash and quiet options
[04:16] <ksivaji> b0uncer to run from konsole
[04:16] <drock> k, ill try that.
[04:16] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: okay will think about that
[04:16] <Plantain> SpeCon: I use Ubuntu as my main OS, and it usually sits about 5GB fully kitted out with my usual array of apps (which is a lot of apps)
[04:16] <Johto> Martin^_-: surely is !
[04:16] <Johto> Martin^_-: USB lagacy you can disable !
[04:16] <a2> use AUTOMATIX2 to wacht video
[04:16] <SpeCon> Plantain: okay
[04:16] <Veinor> jacob: try libdvdread3
[04:16] <Johto> Martin^_-: as the name says legacy ..compatible mode for older USB devices,
[04:16] <drock> Howlingmad: would it wait for my Samba shares in fstab to mount?
[04:16] <dgjones> !automatix | a2
[04:16] <ubotu> a2: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[04:16] <b0uncer> ksivaji: though I'm not really sure if it can extract pk3..I've never even thought that anybody would want to exctract it
[04:16] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: and running out of space is just annoying :(
[04:17] <b0uncer> basically you'll need a program that can extract it, then just run that prog
[04:17] <Johto> Martin^_-: that surely is a good thing to try, go disable it immediatly !
[04:17] <Plantain> Sleep time, 'night all
[04:17] <usser> ksivaji: google says pk3 are just zip files so mv yourfile.pk3 yourfile.zip && unzip yourfile.zip
[04:17] <Veinor> jacob: follow the directions at http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[04:17] <howlingmadhowie> drock: i think it would. you can also have a look at the boot messages. i just like watching it boot :) you can find messages in /var/log/messages for example (there are lots of messages in /var/log for all sorts of things)
[04:17] <b0uncer> ksivaji: try typing peazip and hitting ENTER..see if Ubuntu offers to tell you something about it :)
[04:18] <SpeCon> Plantain: For example, Does linux support programs like for graphical design or special software to view photo's. Or software to prepare a movie out off your videocam ? Like when i go on vacation and i want to prepare my video on my computer and i want to put all the peaces in one video. You know what i mean?
[04:18] <a2> go to http://www.getautomatix.com/wiki/index.php?title=Installation
[04:18] <kenjy> guys I have xubuntu installed in spanish, but all my gnome apps (gnomebaker, soundjuicer, gnome-cd, gnome-record ...) are in english, is there a way to change them to spanish?
[04:18] <drock> howling: thanks, ill go to the logs
[04:18] <Plantain> SpeCon: As a general rule, there's software for everything under Linux ;)
[04:18] <rothchild> hi can someone tell me how to turn off the american dictionary in open office so that it respects my english (UK) spellings? (and uses it by default - I've set the language and locale settings but it's still underlining things where it wants to put a z rather than an s)
[04:18] <Veinor> SpeCon: There are several webcam video capture programs available for linux, yes. Same for photo viewing; not sure about CAD.
[04:18] <SpeCon> Plantain: LOL okay ;) nice to hear that
[04:18] <ksivaji> bash: peazip: command not found
[04:18] <SpeCon> Plantain: And specially its freee lol
[04:18] <b0uncer> like I thought
[04:18] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: cinerella and kino could interest you
[04:18] <b0uncer> ksivaji: how about 'sudo apt-get peazip' ?
[04:18] <ksivaji> b0uncer bash: peazip: command not found
[04:18] <b0uncer> not sure if it's in the repos..
[04:19] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: okay willl look that up
[04:19] <ksivaji> E: Invalid operation peazip
[04:19] <osxdude|laptop> I have 2 usb ports
[04:19] <Veinor> it's not in the repos
[04:19] <usser> ksivaji: mv yourfile.pk3 yourfile.zip && unzip yourfile.zip !!!!
[04:19] <b0uncer> usser: is .pk3 file a zip file?
[04:19] <vikku> Do we have options of Make, makefile in Ubuntu ?
[04:19] <anandanbu> Has anybody here used Scribes text editor and could help me with adding the templates to it
[04:19] <Veinor> ksivaji: but don't include the exclamation points
[04:19] <Gh0Sty2K> d#
[04:19] <usser> b0uncer: it is
[04:19] <b0uncer> ok
[04:19] <b0uncer> well, sorry...of course the first step would have been 'file somefile.pk3' :)
[04:19] <osxdude|laptop> I have 2 usb ports. One on the back of the laptop, another on the side. Which ACM device would the Side port be?
[04:20] <jacob> Veinor: whenever i pop in the disc, totem movie player runs and says "Totem could not play 'dvd:///media/cdrom0
[04:20] <b0uncer> that should have revealed it
[04:20] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: when it comes to cad, you can try qcad, but i've never used it myself
[04:20] <Gh0Sty2K> Folks, im trying to install Ubuntu and it keeps freezing at the partition aspect, im using the Live CD how can i get past the partition aspect?
[04:20] <ksivaji> usser ya i tried that also "yourfile.zip is not a valid zip file"
[04:20] <Veinor> jacob: did you follow the directions at http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[04:20] <Gh0Sty2K> Its installing on an NTFS drive which has win2003 server
[04:20] <jacob> Veinor "There is no plugin to handle this movie
[04:20] <jacob> Veinor, let me have a look into that
[04:20] <Veinor> do that and it should work.
[04:21] <vikku> Do we have options of Make, makefile in Ubuntu ?
[04:21] <afief_> Anybody has n idea how to convert an H.264 MKV file with AAC audio into a DVD?
[04:21] <Veinor> vikku: what do you mean by that?
[04:21] <howlingmadhowie> drock: do you find samba slow in general? i was forced to work on a windows network recently and the shares were really slow between computers. so samba may just be a lot slower than nfs in general
[04:21] <salah> Hi. Any idea how I can get my last ext3 partition back? It is probably on hdb1 or hdb2
[04:21] <usser> ksivaji: did u type the exact command i gave u, did u substitute the names with names of your file
[04:21] <Gh0Sty2K> ?
[04:21] <Gh0Sty2K> Anyone
[04:22] <howlingmadhowie> afief_: i'm sure transcode can do it, but don't ask me how. the command line options for transcode are numerous
[04:22] <ksivaji> usser ya i replace yourfile to actual file name
[04:22] <Gh0Sty2K> ffs
[04:22] <vikku> Veinor: well, these are utilities/commands to help build/install ur software packages
[04:22] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: The problem is when you want to install kino, you need to download and install several other programs first before it can compile kino
[04:22] <a2> Gh0Sty2K: open System>Administration>GParted
[04:22] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: Not that user friendly lolll
[04:23] <usser> ksivaji: heh now that is weird, do u have the write permission to the directory u are in in other words where is that pk3 file located give the full path
[04:23] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: Kino should be in the repositories
[04:23] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: Linux distro makers should do something about that :p to help newbees
[04:23] <Some_ux> being a newbie is not fun
[04:23] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: okay
[04:23] <Veinor> vikku: I know, make and makefile. I've built stuff from source before.
[04:23] <a2> Gh0Sty2K: unmount all partitition
[04:23] <Gh0Sty2K> a2: i only have gnome partition manager
[04:23] <ksivaji> usser ya i have it seem that file is corrupted wait will paste the output here ok
[04:23] <Some_ux> I want to setup ssh and have absolutly no idea where to start
[04:23] <a2> Gh0Sty2K: or......in terminal, type: sudo umount -a
[04:23] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: This evening i will join this channel with the ubuntu computer :p if i need help or something like that
[04:23] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: so just go to system->administration->synaptic, search for kino and click install
[04:23] <SpeCon> yep
[04:23] <usser> ksivaji: use pastebin plz
[04:23] <SpeCon> and thats it ?
[04:23] <Veinor> some_ux: you mean connect to an ssh server?
[04:23] <astro76> Some_ux, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto
[04:24] <Gh0Sty2K> a2:  even though its listed as boot, is it ok to remove mount?
[04:24] <usser> !pastebin | ksivaji
[04:24] <ubotu> ksivaji: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:24] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: it will install every needed part of software to do the install
[04:24] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: yepp. it'll automatically install all dependencies and configure the software
[04:24] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: without doing it manually, it does do it automaticly cool
[04:24] <SpeCon> niceeeeeeeeee
[04:24] <SpeCon> ;)
[04:24] <Some_ux> astro76: thanks
[04:24] <vikku> Veinor: do you have any site where i can get basics of this
[04:24] <usser> SpeCon: hehe
[04:24] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: that's what package management is about :)
[04:24] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: Blow windows for life. Did you check there vista o my fuking god
[04:24] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: SOOOO bad
[04:24] <a2> Gh0Sty2K: before u install ubuntu, use Gpartition to manage your harddisk
[04:25] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: i haven't yet seen vista
[04:25] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: they will never learn it how to rule the world
[04:25] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: its very bad, nice layout and desktop but sucks
[04:25] <Gh0Sty2K> a2:  i unmounted like u said, and now its sitting there saying scanning devices
[04:25] <Some_ux> But perhapes i need to start by asking, is SSH even legal ?
[04:25] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: many bugs and mistakes again like in xp
[04:25] <anandanbu> Has anyone here tried out Scribes text editor
[04:25] <usser> Some_ux: pffft of course its legal
[04:25] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: unfortunately, most people believe microsoft already does rule the world (and when it comes to the oem desktop market, they do)
[04:25] <a2> Gh0Sty2K: or....in windows, use Partitition Magiq, and provide at least 5GB empty partititon
[04:25] <ksivaji> anandanbu kate is best
[04:26] <usser> Some_ux: what do u mean even legal??
[04:26] <SlimeyPete> Some_ux: 'm not aware of any country that bans it. China might, I guess.
[04:26] <allblacks_> i need help : i wanna watch some TV over the internet and i need a UK ip so i can watch it , its required by that tv channel itv.com how can i make my RO Ip to be a UK ip??????????///
[04:26] <Some_ux> some countries, prohibit the use of encryption
[04:26] <anandanbu> ksivaji: yeah but scribes i prefer
[04:26] <rothchild> hi can someone tell me how to turn off the american dictionary in open office so that it respects my english (UK) spellings? (and uses it by default - I've set the language and locale settings but it's still underlining things where it wants to put a z rather than an s)
[04:26] <Gh0Sty2K> a2: i wanna remove win server its shite and crashes all the time, so i cud fdisk and give the full partition..
[04:26] <a2> Gh0Sty2K: yes gnome partition manager....
[04:26] <SlimeyPete> allblacks_: you don't.
[04:26] <Veinor> allblacks_: Definitely outside the scope of this channel.
[04:26] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: The computer i will install it on is a HP computer, should not be any problem i guess ? I got the Desktop CD ubuntu for Intel computers. My dad uses an AMD but works on this AMD aswell how can you explicate this to me ?
[04:26] <usser> allblacks_: google for uk free proxy servers
[04:26] <Gh0Sty2K> a2:  but why is it sitting there scanning devices?
[04:26] <vikku> Veinor: do you have any site where i can get basics of this
[04:27] <a2> Gh0Sty2K: its ok
[04:27] <Veinor> vikku: of how to build from source?
[04:27] <Michael1982> i search the german channel of ubuntu.
[04:27] <usser> SpeCon: HP comps are generally pretty linux friendly
[04:27] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: intel is here a specification for a chip design. intel i386 compatible chips are made by lots of companies
[04:27] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: And why is there a difference about the processors ? intel AMD etc
[04:27] <H0lyD4wg> i have two soundcards (one onboard, one PCI) and ubuntu randomly chooses which one to use at boot. how do i make it consistently select the same one every time?
[04:27] <Gh0Sty2K> a2:  i cant get it to partition, it just sits there scanning devices..
[04:27] <vikku> Veinor: or rather why we need to ?
[04:27] <SpeCon> usser: okay
[04:27] <vikku> Veinor: i did a reading in tldp
[04:28] <turbo> I accidentaly enabled XDMCP login how can I turn my login back to normal from recovery mode?
[04:28] <jetscreamer> udev rules Gh0Sty2K
[04:28] <jetscreamer> errr
[04:28] <turbo> wich config files do I need to change?
[04:28] <Gh0Sty2K> jetscreamer: ?
[04:28] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: the important thing isn't the company that makes the chip but the instructions the chip supports. intel i386 is an "instruction set", AMD64 is another one (which contains i386 and adds some new ones)
[04:28] <booster> i dont think my wifi card has a working driver
[04:28] <jetscreamer> udev rules H0lyD4wg
[04:28] <SpeCon> this is an AMD 64 bit processor
[04:28] <kenjy> how can I know all the rc daemons started at boot?
[04:28] <SpeCon> at home
[04:28] <Some_ux> ok reading http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/openssh-server.html in conjunction with https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto
[04:28] <jetscreamer> the login manager one turbo
[04:29] <Veinor> some_ux: are you in israel?
[04:29] <jetscreamer> see also /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[04:29] <SpeCon> howlingmadhowie: I know that my friend bought him a new computer from HP with a dual processor i guess intel not sure
[04:29] <SpeCon> i hope it works
[04:29] <richard_> hey is there a way to share files using cifs? I am having issues sharing a multi-user db file with smb...
[04:29] <jetscreamer> kenjy: ls /etc/rc2.d
[04:29] <Some_ux> Veinor: yes
[04:29] <Veinor> vikku: tldp?
[04:29] <jetscreamer> !tldp
[04:29] <ubotu> documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com
[04:29] <SpeCon> Be back later i'm gone now cya this evening in this channel bye and thanks for all the support
[04:29] <allblacks_> guys the TV is free but i need that IP that all if they would charge money i would pay but nobody is broadcasting rugby in RO
[04:29] <turbo> jetscreamer: What is the login manager one?
[04:29] <vikku> Veinor: yeah , why so sarcastic abt tldp
[04:30] <jetscreamer> turbo: under system settings
[04:30] <Tonar> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=426669&highlight=Login+messages <- got the same problem
[04:30] <howlingmadhowie> SpeCon: probably. the X2s from AMD are also dual core. the chip will certainly support the i386 instruction set and may support the amd64 instruction set. just put the amd disk in the drive and see what it does. if amd64 isn't supported it will tell you soon enough :)
[04:30] <Veinor> some_ux: I think it's legal there.
[04:30] <fuoco> for some reason my firefox on linux is really heavy, whereas in windows and in mac osx it is really fast - is there some problem with my settings ?
[04:30] <jetscreamer> turbo: or hand edit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[04:30] <jetscreamer> back it up first
[04:30] <Some_ux> Veinor: thanks
[04:30] <SpeCon> okay thanks
[04:30] <SpeCon> byebye
[04:30] <Veinor> vikku: I just didn't know what it was; I wasn't being sarcastic.
[04:30] <osxdude|laptop> say OS X please
[04:30] <turbo> thanks I'll try
[04:30] <osxdude|laptop> :)
[04:30] <faileas> osxdude|laptop: OS ten ;p
[04:30] <GIn> kubuntu use QT3, right?
[04:30] <howlingmadhowie> fuoco: do you have a bittorrent software running at the same time?
[04:31] <turbo> Ah and btw how can I list the latest changes I made?
[04:31] <Veinor> vikku: the reason that I imagine for it is that it can be a problem compiling everything for the different distributions, so the burden of doign that is shifted to the end-user. Plus compiling gives them more options, such as enabling/disabling certain features.
[04:31] <fuoco> howlingmadhowie: occasionally yes, but not all the time, and firefox seems heavy all the time
[04:31] <theuser_> i have a problem
[04:31] <theuser_> i instal ubuntu
[04:31] <a2> Gh0Sty2K: do u wanna to install linux only in your hardisk? or u wanna use dualboot? win and linux?
[04:32] <theuser_> next to my xp
[04:32] <astro76> !enter | theuser_
[04:32] <ubotu> theuser_: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:32] <howlingmadhowie> fuoco: then i don't know. let me think. maybe something will occur to me
[04:32] <nephish> if i set up a cron job, does it run as root ? can i make it run as my main user ( the first user set up on install ) ?
[04:32] <theuser_> and what happen no boot mnu to choose between xp en ubunte
[04:32] <vikku> Veinor: just that iam looking for resource who could tell me y one would prefer doing make and tinker with makefile
[04:32] <jetscreamer> everybody has their own crons.. so yes
[04:33] <nephish> ok, how do i pull that off, jetscreamer ?
[04:33] <astro76> theuser_, does it boot into linux or windows?
[04:33] <nephish> by ownership of the cron script?
[04:33] <vikku> Veinor: i 've been reading so much but still not able to draw a sort of framework as to why we do all this
[04:33] <theuser_> astro in linux
[04:34] <i3luefire> a2^ did you get my msg?

[04:35] <usser> allblacks_: in firefox go to edit->preferences->advanced->connection settings
[04:35] <Veinor> professorsnapper: that's why we're here, to answer and ask questions.
[04:35] <jrib> bhargi: sudo a2enmod
[04:35] <i3luefire> how can i stop this constant disconnecting and reconnecting of the freenode server?
[04:36] <Martiiin> Johto, i turned off USB legacy, and now my mouse hasnt freeze... yet
[04:36] <bhargi> jrib, when i do sudo a2enmod php 5 is not listed
[04:36] <usser> allblacks_: tick manual proxy configuration and enter ip and port i gave u, tick use this proxy for all server protocols
[04:36] <usser> allblacks_: and u should have uk ip
[04:36] <jrib> !lamp > bhargi (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:36] <howlingmadhowie> Veinor: in that order :)
[04:36] <vila> hi everybody
[04:37] <i3luefire> i keep getting the msg "Connection to irc://freenode/ (irc://irc.freenode.net/) closed."
[04:37] <professorsnapper> Thanks Veinor. Just wondering about getting Feisty to work under Parallels 2.5....
[04:37] <vila> can someone tell me how to install ubuntu ultimate 1.4 online, without cd, from feisty?
[04:38] <i3luefire> what is ubuntu ultimate 1.4 online?
[04:38] <astro76> vila, ultimate is a 3rd party modification of ubuntu and hence unsupported, but you can install all that software from Ubuntu
[04:38] <torajiro> hello
[04:38] <astro76> especially since it uses automatix
[04:38] <vila> right
[04:38] <allblacks_> now the guys from itv.com are idiots they need Windows media player to watch the games
[04:38] <eddiestone> is anybody using ubuntu Gusty here?
[04:39] <vila> but saw it and liked the configuration, heh
[04:39] <i3luefire> not me
[04:39] <a2> i3luefire: yes, i did. but i didnt see 'title windows'
[04:39] <professorsnapper> Sorry, I'll be more specific. I can't seem to get desktop effects happening on my macbook, and I wonder if anyone has satisfactorily got Feisty fully running on Parallels 2.5
[04:39] <usser> allblacks_: haha now do apt-get install mozilla-mplayer
[04:39] <i3luefire> hmm
[04:39] <inflater> hey all :)
[04:40] <Martiiin> I dont got any sound
[04:40] <usser> allblacks_: sudo apt-get rather
[04:40] <i3luefire> let me look again
[04:40] <Martiiin> I dont got any sound, dont know whats wrong!
[04:40] <howlingmadhowie> professorsnapper: have you tried things like glxgears?
[04:40] <i3luefire> you are right
[04:40] <torajiro> id like to ask if anyone knows wether its possible for compiz-fusion plugins like ring switcher or app switcher to show contets of the windows even when that windows are minimized. thanks
[04:40] <professorsnapper> howling: what's glxgears?
[04:40] <bhargi> jrib, i read the document and installed llibapache2-mod-php5 even then i am unable to enable php5 module with command sudo a2enmod php5
[04:40] <i3luefire> maybe i copied the wrong file
[04:41] <inflater> i have a smal problem, when I want to compile SDL under Ubuntu Feisty Fawn, it just complains about that gcc cantmake executables

[04:47] <Kr0ntab> have you installed "build-essential" ?
[04:47] <osxdude|laptop> SubSonik, it wouldn't show the resolution right away,...Hey, after you copy it change the resolution in System > Prefrences > Screen Resolution.
[04:47] <osxdude|laptop> I g2g now
[04:47] <professorsnapper> howling: thanks - the gears look OK (between 700 - 900 FPS).

[04:52] <Gentoo> Hi every body
[04:52] <professorsnapper> howling: I get a blank screen for 30secs, then it reverts to previous / normal
[04:52] <zyth> How do I make sound juicer stop opening automatically whenever I insert a CD?

[04:53] <howlingmadhowie> professorsnapper: oops :( that doesn't sound good. i can't think of a reason why it would go that wrong.
[04:53] <booster> will someone please help me figure out this wifi driver problem im having ???
[04:53] <b0uncer> booster: what problem
[04:53] <MaxL> hey
[04:53] <howlingmadhowie> professorsnapper: you're using the 32-bit version on a virtual machine inside osx?
[04:53] <MaxL> Anyway I can get Ubuntu to write in NTFS?
[04:53] <bhargi> jrib, i have one php test file which started to work  now but my local joomla installation still not working
[04:54] <professorsnapper> howling: that sounds about right...
[04:54] <jrib> bhargi: don't know anything about joomla
[04:54] <Otacon22> i can't install xv beacuse the package looks obsolete for apt,  what can i do?
[04:54] <Gentoo> sudo su
[04:54] <professorsnapper> howling: I'm using Parallels 2.5 as my VM software
[04:54] <bhargi> jrib, i mean in side joomla directory i have  a index.php file which is offered for download instead of parsing
[04:54] <booster> well my wifi card wasnt installed from setup so i gotta use ndiswrapper to use the card...well i got the driver in the window now..but under the driver it says Hardware Present:No
[04:54] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > MaxL (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:55] <jrib> bhargi: try the troubleshooting steps on the wiki (clear your browser cache for one)
[04:55] <howlingmadhowie> professorsnapper: then i really don't know what it could be. i'd imagine there are some problems with /etc/X11/xorg.conf but i've never used linux on a modern apple, so i don't know what the right settings would be
[04:55] <vladuz976> my speakers are mute. No sound. I adjust the volume in gnome but it the icon stays MUTE with the little red cross and no sound what soever
[04:55] <vladuz976> can anybody help?
[04:55] <jrib> Gentoo: /join #ubuntu-es
[04:55] <b0uncer> booster: then it's the wrong driver I suppose
[04:55] <bhargi> jrib, yep thanks a lot it working
[04:55] <Pc_Dark> I installed adept, now, how do I get it to when I open the program, it runs as sudo?
[04:55] <Gentoo> Thanks
[04:56] <b0uncer> booster: when you've got a right driver for the chip, and install it, it should say hw is present..until that, your driver is probably wrong
[04:56] <bhargi> jrib, thank bye
[04:56] <jrib> bhargi: np, bye
[04:57] <professorsnapper> howling: I appreciate your thoughts/ effort anyway. I seem to remember some postings on the forums which suggested that Feisty wouldn't fully work on Parallels 2.5 - I had to use a workaround to even load it.
[04:57] <booster> well i tried the one on the cd that came with the card,....and i went to the site and dloaded one from there still no luck
[04:57] <Pc_Dark> can someone please help me?
[04:57] <b0uncer> booster: which card is it?
[04:57] <b0uncer> booster: lspci | grep Wireless
[04:58] <howlingmadhowie> professorsnapper: i understand. is there some other virtualisation software for osx you could try?
[04:58] <Kr0ntab> Pc_Dark, just ask the group
[04:58] <howlingmadhowie> professorsnapper: i imagine there's a version of qemu
[04:59] <astro76> Pc_Dark, from the command line: kdesu adept
[04:59] <astro76> Pc_Dark, the menu entry should be set up that way
[04:59] <Pc_Dark> astro76: How do I edit gnome menu entries?
[04:59] <astro76> Pc_Dark, why are you using adept in gnome? there is synaptic
[04:59] <faileas> yeah theres kju for os x, which is a pretty nice qemu varient
[04:59] <jetscreamer> Pc_Dark: it should 'just work'
[04:59] <jetscreamer> if it doesn't you need something
[05:00] <Martiiin> How do i open tar.gz formats in ubuntu?
[05:00] <Pc_Dark> astro76: I'm trying to figure out why openoffice.org publisher isn't installed, I thought I might need adept
[05:00] <Pc_Dark> Martiiin: tar -xzvf
[05:00] <professorsnapper> Howling: I hear VMware is good, but having already shelled out $80-odd, I was reluctant to cough up more... shall I type qemu in the console? ;)
[05:00] <SubSonik> how do i get the default xorg.conf off the instalation CD, or reset the xorg.conf to the original setting?
[05:00] <jetscreamer> tar x...nm
[05:00] <b0uncer> booster: also when writing to me, please write my nickname in the beginning of the line so I'll see it easier from this text load :)
[05:00] <Martiiin> Pc_Dark am new to linux so... what?
[05:00] <jetscreamer> read line 17 or so of xorg.conf SubSonik
[05:00] <howlingmadhowie> Martiiin: click on them. i think gnome will unpack them automatically. if not, right-click and extract here or extract to directory
[05:01] <jetscreamer> file-roller rocks
[05:01] <astro76> Pc_Dark, openoffice.org doesn't have a publisher, instead the writer is a very capable page layout program itself

[05:04] <jetscreamer> sebrock: ^^
[05:04] <b0uncer> booster: ok..isn't familiar to me, but anyway. how did you install the windows driver with ndiswrapper exactly?
[05:04] <booster> drag and drop
[05:05] <b0uncer> ok
[05:05] <minopausa> hi babies
[05:05] <sinisterguy> has anyone had any success with bitpim and the samsung u740 phone on feisty?
[05:05] <howlingmadhowie> sebrock: actually, it's easier than that. usually the contents of /etc/rc2.d, /etc/rc3.d, /etc/rc4.d and /etc/rc5.d are the same. they are just symbolic links to the scripts in /etc/init.d
[05:06] <Meyvn> hey all, I am trying to install Ubuntu 7.04 on my new Fujitsu Siemens Amilo P2530, using the Alternate Install CD (since the Live CD failed to work). Ubuntu installs but fails to boot X server, it finds a display device, but no suitable drivers. Where do I go from here?
[05:06] <sebrock> I know, its already fixed :D
[05:06] <b0uncer> booster: there's a chance it's a Dlink card actually, or something close to that, and the chip on the card could be tricky
[05:06] <rob_p> sebrock: man update.rc.d
[05:06] <b0uncer> but let's see..
[05:06] <sebrock> update-rc.d was what I was looking for
[05:06] <b0uncer> which ndiswrapper version did you install, booster?
[05:06] <Some_ux> ok, so ssh works
[05:07] <Meyvn> Oh, I'm using an ATI card (Mobility X2300 128 MB)
[05:07] <b0uncer> booster: ndiswrapper -v
[05:07] <booster> b0uncerwell the name of the card is a trendnet TEW-423PI

[05:10] <Invisionfree> Can someone help me to resize a Windows Vista partition (NTFS Format) I am using Ubuntu Live CD and it's all I hace

[05:10] <b0uncer> booster: and do you have the Ubuntu package 'ndiswrapper-utils-1.8' installed?
[05:10] <b0uncer> that's needed
[05:11] <Invisionfree> Can someone help me to resize a Windows Vista partition (NTFS Format) I am using Ubuntu Live CD and it's all I have <- Sorry for the repeat, I might've slightly err...Typoed, but I fixed ot

[05:11] <tatters> I running on a fujisu seiens m7400
[05:12] <b0uncer> booster: this page ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper ) should help you out..I'd still try to use the drivers off the CD, and before following those steps on the help site, purge all ndiswrapper packages with 'apt-get remove --purge ndiswrapper-package-name-here'
[05:12] <keito> does anyone on here have openarena that can give me the ip of the master server -- found in the settings menu of the game
[05:13] <booster> b0uncer  .  ...i installed the OS then i put the disk back in after i rebooted and i installed the package i needed to run the ndiswrapper
[05:13] <Kr0ntab> SubSonik, are you trying to get a specific resolution?
[05:13] <Invisionfree> Can someone help me to resize a Windows Vista partition (NTFS Format) I am using Ubuntu Live CD and it's all I have, any suggestions?
[05:13] <Pc_Dark> how do I create more workspaces

[05:13] <Meyvn> hey all, I am trying to install Ubuntu 7.04 on my new Fujitsu Siemens Amilo P2530, using the Alternate Install CD (since the Live CD failed to work). Ubuntu installs but fails to boot X server, it finds a display device, but no suitable drivers. Where do I go from here? Btw, I'm using an ATI Mobility X2300 GPU
[05:14] <Invisionfree> Hydrate: I don't think it works well with Vista partitions.
[05:14] <Some_ux> ok, so now i've setup my linux box with samba, but i cant log into it, from the vista desktop
[05:14] <Some_ux> what do i need to setup ?
[05:14] <Kr0ntab> SubSonik, oic....  and silly question im sure, but have you adjusted the monitor?
[05:14] <usser> Some_ux: smbpasswd -a
[05:14] <Hydrate>  Invisionfree a vista partition should be no different from an XP one, the only issue you shoulld have is to do with it being NTFS
[05:15] <usser> Some_ux: add a user that can connect remotely
[05:15] <Some_ux> usser: ok
[05:15] <SubSonik> Kr0ntab, it is not a monitor, it is a sony KP-57WS520 tv. PS. no such thing as dumb question. I admit I am a bit of a noob and might have overlooked something
[05:15] <usser> Some_ux: sudo smbpasswd -a
[05:15] <Hydrate>  Invisionfree i installed ubuntu dual booting from vista, doing exactly what im saying, but i ended up removing vista because it pailed in comparrison
[05:15] <tatters> if I synched my entire /me/home inc .hidden from my desktop to my laptop, is there anything I might need to filter out to prevent problems?
[05:15] <Invisionfree> I like Vista, but registration is bugged..
[05:16] <realnewguy> hey guys, ive been using ubuntu for about a week now, but ive noticed that everytime i need to do some tasks that require admin authority i use the 'sudo' in the CLI, but how do i define the root user name and password?
[05:16] <Hydrate>  Invisionfree i just fouund it was slower, especially for gaming, i tripple my vista framerate in ubuntu. not to mention if you download compiz fusion, looks wise ubuntu owns
[05:16] <usser> realnewguy: u dont really want to do that on a desktop pc
[05:16] <jdubb> Does AMD62 X2 work on ubuntu, or any linux distro for that matter?
[05:16] <usser> realnewguy: in a server it makes sense
[05:16] <realnewguy> oh ok then, ty
[05:16] <Some_ux> realnewguy: sudo passwd
[05:16] <usser> jdubb: it should work
[05:16] <Kr0ntab> SubSonik, ahh... understood.  I woulld just be guessing as I really haven't run into that issue.
[05:16] <Some_ux> I think
[05:17] <Kr0ntab> SubSonik, well with a smaller device anyway.
[05:17] <Some_ux> not sure, been using ubuntu for 2 days :P
[05:17] <Pichu0102> Does anybody know of a Linux command line AIM client that can send a message on a timed basis?
[05:17] <jdubb> I just bought a new ASUS MN2-SLI DELUXE  motherboard with AMD64 X2 and it keeps locking up on every install  :(
[05:17] <SubSonik> Kr0ntab, hey, I have been at this for three days now. any help would be appretiated.
[05:17] <rob_p> realnewguy: It's considered better practice to continue to use sudo and leave the root login disabled.
[05:17] <b0uncer> booster: did you notice my privmessage?
[05:18] <realnewguy> ive done "chmod 0700 home/joe" i got told its necessary, what does this permission 0700 do?
[05:18] <usser> jdubb: if u have a ubuntu dvd u can try command line installation mode
[05:18] <usser> jdubb: when does it lock?
[05:18] <Invisionfree> Hydrate: Like I said, it won't resize it...I did sudo gparted and it won't resize :(
[05:18] <rob_p> realnewguy: Who told you to do that?
[05:19] <realnewguy> i read it somewhere actually sorry, i wasnt told directly,
[05:19] <nephish> if i do not have nfs open to the internet (closed off by firestarter) would it be safe to have an nfs share chmod 777 for my home LAN ?
[05:19] <Invisionfree> Is it possible to resize your only partition from the Ubuntu live CD?
[05:19] <rob_p> realnewguy: Well, it's debatable.  Basically it makes your home dir only accessible by your user.
[05:19] <Some_ux> smbpasswd -a does not work
[05:19] <jdubb> after loadig drivers.  its weird...ive been trying to install openfiler and at one point it did make it in the install, but i stopped it to look at something and ive never been able to install it or anything else
[05:20] <realnewguy> ah ok, well i guess it didnt hurt then
[05:20] <salah> any idea to my problem?
[05:20] <b0uncer> booster: sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-utils-1.8 ndisgtk && sudo ndisgtk
[05:20] <jdubb> ive tried text install from a CD and still the same thing...i cant even do a MEDIA CHECK
[05:20] <vladuz976> my speakers are mute. No sound. I adjust the volume in gnome but it the icon stays MUTE with the little red cross and no sound what soever
[05:20] <usser> Some_ux: sorry sudo smbpasswd -a yourusername
[05:21] <Invisionfree> vladuz976: Have you tried right clicking it and unchecking "Mute" ?
[05:21] <zero> hey guys, i got some source code how the hell do i install it?
[05:21] <vladuz976> Invisionfree, no
[05:21] <MrObvious> zero: Careful on the language. And what kind of code is it?
[05:21] <Invisionfree> Try it then vladuz976 :O
[05:21] <jdubb> usser: any ideas?
[05:21] <tatters> where does koffice applications store user data
[05:22] <vladuz976> Invisionfree, thanks. you know also when I plug in headphones, i hear sound on both speakers
[05:22] <tatters> korganizer etc
[05:22] <MrObvious> tatters: Just a guess but it might be ~/.koffice or ~/.kde
[05:22] <GillesM> hello since an upgrad with gusty or perahps other thing I have the boot message : kernel panic not init found any idea ?
[05:22] <zero> well i got it in tar lets say
[05:22] <shwouchk> I installed php and I am told it does not support sqlite... what should I do to enable it?
[05:22] <astro76> !compile | zero
[05:22] <ubotu> zero: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[05:22] <Invisionfree> That I'm not real sure of vladuz976, is it plugged in fully?
[05:22] <Invisionfree> Is it possible to resize your only partition from the Ubuntu live CD?
[05:22] <vladuz976> Invisionfree, yes, this has been a problem for a while
[05:22] <MrObvious> zero: Just make sure there isn't a deb first that you can get through Ubuntu.
[05:23] <vladuz976> Invisionfree, always on the speakers and the headphone
[05:23] <zero> lol wel... i mean its moblock
[05:23] <vladuz976> really annoying when you wanna use skype to make a call
[05:23] <zero> so i dunno excactly what it is
[05:23] <tatters> nope nothing there with thoise names or anything resembling
[05:23] <MrObvious> vladuz976: I wonder why. :\
[05:23] <zero> but for some reason wen i try compiling it in terminal
[05:23] <zero> i cand cd to dekstop
[05:23] <GillesM> /hoin #ubuntu-fr
[05:23] <Pc_Dark> is there anything like ctrl+alt+del in ubuntu to kill a program
[05:23] <zero> from home
[05:23] <Pc_Dark> without command line?
[05:23] <vladuz976> MrObvious, because everybody can hear the full conversation
[05:24] <shwouchk> I installed php and I am told it does not support sqlite... what should I do to enable it?
[05:24] <MrObvious> vladuz976: I was being sarcastic. :p
[05:24] <Xyhthyx> Pc_Dark: Command line is still the best way to kill programs, but there's the system monitor.
[05:24] <Some_ux> ok, so now vista sees the user but it cant find any folders on the linux machine
[05:24] <MrObvious> shwouchk: Wouldn't mysql be better?
[05:24] <MrObvious> !lamp
[05:24] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[05:24] <astro76> Pc_Dark, system > administration > system monitor
[05:24] <GillesM> since an upgrad with gusty or perahps other thing I have the boot message : kernel panic not init found any idea ?
[05:24] <Pc_Dark> Thanks
[05:24] <vladuz976> MrObvious, sorry, i am little frustrated
[05:24] <MrObvious> vladuz976: It's okay.
[05:24] <Invisionfree> Pc_Dark?!
[05:25] <Xyhthyx> Pc_Dark: You can make a ctr+alt+del shortcut for system monitor but it won't launch if you lock up, a terminal will.
[05:25] <astro76> Pc_Dark, you can also run xkill (from command line or alt+f2) then click on the window of a program to kill
[05:25] <BBking> Somebody any idea why I can't change my resolution to 1440 x 990 ?
[05:25] <BBking> My driver is installed
[05:25] <Invisionfree> Is it possible to resize your only partition from the Ubuntu live CD?
[05:25] <shwouchk> MrObvious: I have mysql, but Im the only one who will use the server, and it is simpler to configure and more secure...
[05:25] <vladuz976> MrObvious, ubuntu is just not ready for laptops I think. just too many things to deal with to get it working
[05:25] <MrObvious> shwouchk: MySQL is pretty easy to set up. I even set up MySQL for Amarok. lol
[05:25] <astro76> GillesM, try #ubuntu+1
[05:25] <Invisionfree> vladuz976: Can I tell you I'm running Ubuntu on my laptop
[05:26] <Aminux> why do i get a blanc screen everytime i try to activate the effects on ubuntu_
[05:26] <wers> I can't access certain sites. I cant open digg, I cant connect to Y!M, etc... what could the reason be?
[05:26] <vladuz976> Invisionfree, and everything working ok?
[05:26] <MrObvious> vladuz976: Eh IDK. I diagree somewhat. I think Linux with everything can be a problem.
[05:26] <GillesM> thanks astro
 Somebody any idea why I can't change my resolution to 1440 x 990 ?
 My driver is installed
[05:26] <Textbook> Aminux: you running an AIGLX driver or XGL?
[05:26] <MrObvious> vladuz976: Hardware support is really improving though.
[05:26] <tparcina> how to check, from CLI, is some service running?
[05:26] <Aminux> Textbook: running AIGLX driver
[05:27] <MrObvious> BBking: Does it not give an option when you change the resolution?
[05:27] <vladuz976> MrObvious, i think it's a great OS for servers and programmers maybe, but for the average joe it takes too much time to configure
[05:27] <BBking> No it does not
[05:27] <BBking> It's not in the list Mr0bvious
[05:27] <Invisionfree> Is it possible to resize your only partition from the Ubuntu live CD?
[05:27] <MrObvious> vladuz976: The thing is, it's a different mentality from Windows. You need to remember it's gonna be different by nature but it teaches you more about your computer.
[05:27] <binarydigit> Invisionfree: what kind of partition
[05:27] <bulmer> tparcina: ps -aux
[05:27] <MrObvious> BBking: Okay you'll need to edit xorg.conf. Do you know how?
[05:27] <Invisionfree> binarydigit: NTFS
[05:27] <Textbook> BBking: run sudo dpkg -reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:28] <BBking> No actualy
[05:28] <vladuz976> MrObvious, I want to do print, I cannot use any of my designs, because Linux apps don't have color management. I just don't understand why people put time into writing software that is not usable in reality
[05:28] <kidbuntu> !nexius
[05:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nexius - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:28] <binarydigit> Invisionfree: you can use gparted but im not sure if it comes on the livecd, you could apt-get install it from the livecd though
[05:28] <Aminux> Textbook: so,what could be causing this ?
[05:28] <Textbook> BBking: pick your driver, then it will give you a list of resolutions, use the space bar to select the ones you want
[05:28] <MrObvious> vladuz976: Try gimp? :\
[05:28] <Invisionfree> binarydigit: I did, and it is not resizing it..
[05:28] <Textbook> Aminux: #ubuntu-effects
[05:28] <Some_ux> ok, so how do i share a linux folder to the vista desktop
[05:28] <binarydigit> Invisionfree: ....
[05:28] <MrObvious> BBking: Okay type in a terminal gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:28] <shwouchk> MrObvious: sqlite is simpler
[05:29] <vladuz976> MrObvious, I understand, I used to enjoy that as a student, i was running archlinux, now i am working and and with ubuntu on my laptop i just cannot keep up with others
[05:29] <Invisionfree> binarydigit: What?
[05:29] <MrObvious> shwouchk: Whatever. I'm not sure honestly. Google might be the best bet.
[05:29] <BBking> done Mr0bvious
[05:29] <binarydigit> Invisionfree: gonna fill me in on the .... or just ending it like that?
[05:29] <vladuz976> MrObvious, i am talking about gimp. it has no color management, and it won'T have it anytime soon
[05:29] <vladuz976> MrObvious, not even the new release does
[05:29] <binarydigit> any error msgs?
[05:29] <shwouchk> MrObvious: for future reference, you need php-sqlite
[05:29] <tparcina> bulmer: yes, but I would like to check status of services. I need command that is similar to "service status ftpd" on RHEL
[05:29] <Invisionfree> binarydigit: You don't need it filled in, I told you, it just won't resize it :D
[05:29] <MrObvious> BBking: 1 min
[05:30] <binarydigit> Invisionfree: can then i cant help you ;)

[05:33] <sirjoebob> anyone know of any?
[05:33] <zero> guys, how do i enable my back and forward buttons on the side of my mouse in ubuntu?
[05:33] <winbond> i3luefire, couls be bad ram, run the memory test from the ubuntu cd
[05:33] <MrObvious> i3luefire: PSU maybe. Or RAM.
[05:33] <Kr0ntab> vladuz976, have you looked at the package gimp-ufraw ?

[05:34] <zero> thnx alot ubotu
[05:34] <BBking> yes
[05:34] <MrObvious> zero: That's a bot. Say thanks astro76  :P

[05:35] <i3luefire> i will try putting a new power supply in
[05:35] <i3luefire> it just froze up
[05:35] <mauri> do someone know how to converter mp3 to wav
[05:35] <i3luefire> could not do anything
[05:35] <MrObvious> BBking: Okay you see it sorts it by depths. Do you see like 800x600, 1024x768, etc.?
[05:35] <alesan> hallo, is it possible to install a i386 package on ubuntu64? (skype)
[05:35] <alesan> if not, *why* not?
[05:35] <MrObvious> i3luefire: Okay yeah try that. Then if it doesn't work run memtest from the Ubuntu CD.
[05:36] <BBking> Yes Mr0bvious
[05:36] <admin21ten> hello all!
[05:36] <MrObvious> BBking: Let me guess, there is no 1400 whatever resolution you want, right?
[05:36] <BBking> Exactly :)
[05:36] <MrObvious> BBking: I think you said 1450x1000?
[05:36] <rob_p> i3luefire: Is the processor overheating?  Check the processor fan, ensure good case airflow, etc.
[05:36] <BBking> 1440 x 990
[05:37] <i3luefire> i did run the memtest from the ubuntu DVD on the second or third time i did a clean install
[05:37] <winbond> i3luefire, and u should use xubuntu, cause u dont have much ram
[05:37] <lgc> !paste
[05:37] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:37] <MrObvious> BBking: Eh 10 by 10 off. Okay at the end after the 1280x1024 on each depth push Tab and type in "1440x990" on the depth lines. I would probably only do it for 16 and 24 bit depths.
[05:37] <i3luefire> i dont think the proc is over heating
[05:37] <astro76> i3luefire, 512 MB is plenty of ram for Ubuntu
[05:38] <i3luefire> i even tried underclocking it to 533MHZ
[05:38] <MrObvious> i3luefire: I'm still saying PSU.
[05:38] <rob_p> i3luefire: Power supplies are cheap so it couldn't hurt.
[05:38] <astro76> i3luefire, 230 Watts is pitifully small for adding high end graphics cards and such
[05:38] <winbond> astro76, in ur opinion, i think anything less than 1gig is not enought
[05:38] <BBking> There is no 1280 x 1024 too :/
[05:38] <MrObvious> winbond: He doesn't need XUbuntu as Gnome or KDE can run fine on 512MB of RAM. I run Gnome on 512.
[05:38] <MrObvious> BBking: Okay well you get the idea I think.
[05:39] <BBking> Yeah :)
[05:39] <BBking> Trying it
[05:39] <BBking> now
[05:39] <MrObvious> BBking: THen when you're done just push File->Save. Then hit Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to restart X.
[05:39] <BBking> Okay
[05:39] <i3luefire> thanks for all the help. all of you.
[05:39] <winbond> MrObvious, i know it will run, but xubuntu will run faster
[05:39] <MrObvious> i3luefire: YW.
[05:39] <MrObvious> winbond: True.
[05:39] <Darius> hello
[05:39] <astro76> winbond, I agree but it still works well, and most new users in here do not want xfce
[05:39] <MrObvious> winbond: But it's his system.
[05:39] <sirjoebob> if ubuntu doesnt do well on 512, use xubuntu. i have a pc with a p3 and 256 meg of ram running xubuntu with a tv tuner
[05:39] <MrObvious> Darius: Yo!
[05:40] <MrObvious> sirjoebob: Lol that's funny.
[05:40] <MrObvious> BBking: Let me know if it works.
[05:40] <sirjoebob> it runs great
[05:40] <Xyhthyx> I've been using Ubuntu on 512 for a year now, been running wonderfully even with all the stuff I've put in it.
[05:40] <BBking> Ofcourse
[05:40] <sirjoebob> zero lag. running linksys wireless
[05:40] <MrObvious> sirjoebob: Of course! It's linux. :)
[05:40] <Darius> this has probably been asked 1000 times, but how do I go about changing my refresh rate in ubuntu?
[05:40] <admin21ten> anyone in here running ubuntu-server?
[05:40] <MrObvious> BBking: Okay I await the answer. :)
[05:40] <MrObvious> !ask | admin21ten
[05:40] <ubotu> admin21ten: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:41] <MrObvious> Darius: Let me look a secodn.
[05:41] <sirjoebob> lol. i used to run ubuntu on my lappy with 512M of ram and an intel celeron M.... so, it should run fine
[05:41] <Darius> okey...
[05:41] <sirjoebob> i have since upgraded to 1.5 GB of ram so i can run virtualbox w/o lag
[05:42] <MrObvious> Darius: Hmm It's in xorg.conf under Section "Device" for your GPU.
[05:42] <BBking> Hmm
[05:42] <Darius> okey...
[05:42] <Darius> on sec...
[05:42] <MrObvious> Darius: I'm sure there is a way to do it through Gnome.
[05:42] <BAdz> anyone familiar with libvisual?
[05:43] <revilodraw> can i use an apple airport with ubuntu?
[05:43] <sirjoebob> so , does anyone know of a cheap usb tv tuner that will run OOB with ubuntu? RCA connections preferred....
[05:43] <MrObvious> !ask | BAdz
[05:43] <ubotu> BAdz: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:43] <Darius> yes, but the trouble is that...
[05:43] <Darius> in nvidia setting I kan only get 85hz....
[05:43] <BAdz> ok... i dont know how to get any visualizations for amarok
[05:43] <illusion> :O
[05:43] <BAdz> i have libvisual installed... but idk where to get any visuals
[05:44] <davidfwatson> I just booted my ubuntu install into recovery mode because I am now using a lower resolution screen than I used to and I can't see what's going on when it boots normally. How do I lower the default resolution?
[05:44] <revilodraw> is it possible to use an apple airport with ubuntu?
[05:44] <MrObvious> Darius: Try reading this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=469981&highlight=change+refresh+rate
[05:44] <nbkr> davidfwatson, System -> Settings -> Resolution
[05:45] <MrObvious> revilodraw: What chipset does it use? I got a feeling it's BCM 43xx.
[05:45] <davidfwatson> I'm in recovery mode, which is a command line prompt
[05:45] <Kr0ntab> BAdz, libvisual-0.4-plugins
[05:45] <BBking> Mr0bvious: Not working yet. But I bet it's my bad, installed Ubuntu earlier today.
[05:45] <nbkr> revilodraw, Airport is the Apple Accesspoint, correct? It's not a wlan card? Than it should be no problem if apple doesn't use a propriatry protocol.
[05:45] <BBking> How did I open that config file?
[05:45] <MrObvious> BBking: Did you File/Save?
[05:46] <MrObvious> BBking: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:46] <BAdz> Kr0ntab: ive installed libvisual-0.4-plugins
[05:46] <BBking> Yes, I did
[05:46] <BAdz> but do i have to create my own visuals?
[05:46] <i3luefire> i also picked up another computer from the surpluss store with a very similar config including a good asus mobo and 230psu but it is a dual slot1 P3 500MHZ with 768MB ram in the form of 2x 256MB sticks plus 2x 128MB sticks and it runs fine but i  cant get Amarok to work on it under kde. it just keeps loading and loading and loading and loading and loading....

[05:46] <MrObvious> Whoa!

[05:47] <Kr0ntab> BAdz, Ohhh.... i see....
[05:47] <BBking> True, sorry
[05:47] <MrObvious> BBking: It's okay. It's quiet this morning fourtinately.
[05:47] <nbkr> revilodraw, You have to setup your wireless card. This can be done via the network manager or by edititing some configuration files.
[05:47] <MrObvious> BBking: Try putting the 1440x990 before 1024x768
[05:48] <BBking> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36794/
[05:48] <revilodraw> nbkr: im using wireless internet now.. if i were to buy an apple airport, would ubuntu recognise it? how? sorry for asking lotgs of questions
[05:48] <i3luefire> that one came with a 40GB HD though
[05:48] <Kr0ntab> BAdz, libvisual has a wiki... but its documentation is quite sparse...
[05:49] <i3luefire> and i got it for $5 too
[05:49] <faileas> revilodraw: it should, but there's better routers for the money IMO
[05:49] <Invisionfree> Guys, if I wish to resize a VISTA partition, and I only have an Ubuntu Live CD, how would I do it? GParted is not doing it for me :(
[05:49] <zero> wat is the default password for my root account
[05:49] <BAdz> :/ arite ill check it out. thanks Kr0ntab
[05:49] <nbkr> revilodraw, Airport is a wireless access point, just like the one you're using now.
[05:49] <Kr0ntab> BAdz, but they do have a channel here, #libvisual
[05:49] <MrObvious> revilodraw: Is this a wireless NIC?
[05:49] <BBking> Mr0bvious, restart again?
[05:49] <dug> !root | zero
[05:49] <ubotu> zero: 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
[05:49] <faileas> invasionfree: partion manager in vista
[05:49] <MrObvious> revilodraw: IMO I'd get a Linksys WRT54G or if you can afford it a WRT54GL and mod it to DD-WRT so it works great.
[05:50] <revilodraw> MrObvious: whats an NIC? yeh, but my router cant connect to speakers or printers
[05:50] <erlinux> hi
[05:50] <nbkr> revilodraw, Everything you did with your current access point has to be done with the new one. Sorry, but I can't tell you more. I never used an apple airport.
[05:50] <MrObvious> BBking: Use Ctrl+Alt+Backspace.
[05:50] <nbkr> revilodraw, NIC = A network card.
[05:50] <MrObvious> BBking: Yeah try it.
[05:51] <MrObvious> revilodraw: Why would an AP need to connect to a speaker or printer? That's what a computer does, not an AP.
[05:51] <MrObvious> revilodraw: Unless you have networked devices that you can use which is really high end probably.
[05:51] <davidfwatson> is there a a way to change the default resolution from grub for just one boot?
[05:51] <BBking> Can't choose it yet :|

[05:54] <Clavi> Question: Compared to "the two other" big os'es, Ubuntu (gnome/xfce/and KDE i've tried) has "slower" window buildup. Moving windows over other windows (dependable on programs) show clearly the window beeing drawn.
[05:54] <neramos> hows everyone ?
[05:54] <MrObvious> !hi | neramos
[05:54] <ubotu> neramos: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:55] <tparcina> what ftpd is sugested to be used with Ubuntu?
[05:55] <Clavi> I've seen this in every version LInux I used. Is there a way to get rid of this?
[05:55] <MrObvious> !ftp | tparcina
[05:55] <ubotu> tparcina: FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[05:55] <MrObvious> !ftpd | tparcina
[05:55] <ubotu> tparcina: FTP servers: !ftpd, !proftpd, !pure-ftpd, !twoftpd, !vsftpd, !MuddleFTPd, !wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: !PureAdmin, !GProftpd (for !GNOME), !KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP
[05:55] <dug> tparcina: you might want to use an ssh server instead of an ftp server
[05:55] <MrObvious> tparcina: Take your pick. lol
[05:55] <neramos> tparcina: easy use would be kasablanca
[05:55] <overclucker> Clavi, better graphics card support
[05:56] <MrObvious> Clavi: What kind of GPU do you have?
[05:56] <tparcina> dug: why?
[05:56] <realnewguy> hey guys is there someway to setup ubuntu so that i can log into my home pc from my uni? (taking into account that the pcs at uni run windowsxp though ;S)
[05:56] <neramos> realnewguy: yes ssh
[05:57] <dug> tparcina: ssh is more secure, transmissions are encrypted.  but if you just want a public ftp server, read only, that could work fine too
[05:57] <tparcina> MrObvious: yes, I was hoping there is one that's recommended by distribution
[05:57] <qaldune> realnewguy install ssh server and use putty at your uni pc
[05:57] <neramos> realnewguy: ssh on a usb stick and run if from there and ssh into your home pc
[05:57] <MrObvious> realnewguy: VNC.
[05:57] <Clavi> Nvidia 128 megs. Mind you, I compare it with XP under dual boot.
[05:57] <Invisionfree> Can someone help me resize a VISTA NTFS partition? GParted will not do it.
[05:57] <erlinux> how do i get flash on opera?
[05:57] <neramos> Invisionfree: you need to install ntfs drivers
[05:57] <Distro^Junkie> Invisionfree: use the vista partitioner
[05:57] <Moufou> how i install ubuntu  with windows vista any ideas
[05:58] <faileas> invasionfree: do it from vista
[05:58] <realnewguy> cool, can i find vnc/ssh server in synaptic? (im a gui noob)
[05:58] <jetscreamer> Invisionfree: vista has a resizer
[05:58] <MrObvious> Clavi: What is the output of the following terminal command? cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep nv
[05:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Clavi: what video drivers are you using and what model nvidia
[05:58] <jetscreamer> yes realnewguy
[05:58] <Some_ux> ok, so i see a printer in the Linux server but i cant see any folders ?
[05:58] <rob_p> tparcina: FTP is insecure.  SSH offers adequate file transfer support via scp and sftp.  It's worth looking into...
[05:58] <faileas> Moufou: repartition from vista, install ubuntu in the new partition
[05:58] <tparcina> dug: I was thinking maybe some sort of secure ftp
[05:58] <MrObvious> erlinux: IDK how but I got it to work. :\
[05:58] <Some_ux> from samba
[05:58] <erlinux> k
[05:58] <Moufou> any tutorial how i do that
[05:59] <MrObvious> erlinux: I'll have to find it for you.
[05:59] <tparcina> rob_p: can you recommend one sftp?
[05:59] <rob_p> tparcina: I use cmdline sftp.
[05:59] <MrObvious> erlinux: http://www.opera.com/linux/docs/plugins/install/
[05:59] <Distro^Junkie> wife likes ubuntu and I like gentoo so the compromise was to use virtualbox and install gentoo lol
[05:59] <rob_p> tparcina: ...but I'm sure there are graphical ones out there.
[05:59] <Clavi> MrObvious:  Driver "nvidia"
[05:59] <nonix4> Hmm, to use intelfb... do I need anything besides video=intelfb in menu.lst?
[06:00] <MrObvious> Clavi: Okay so you have the NVidia driver installed. Good.
[06:00] <erlinux> k
[06:00] <MrObvious> Clavi: Are Desktop Effects enabled?
[06:00] <rob_p> tparcina: From a windows box, you can use winscp.
[06:00] <Clavi> Jack_Sparrow: driver used is normal nvidia, dont know the exact model card, but its' fairly new
[06:00] <Moufou> any tutorial how i do that
[06:00] <tparcina> rob_p: I don't need graphical, I'll try that one. what's package name - sftp?
[06:00] <Jabu> hi
[06:00] <MrObvious> Jack_Sparrow: I just checked and he has the NVidia driver installed fine.
[06:00] <rob_p> tparcina: man sftp
[06:01] <rob_p> tparcina: You should already have it.
[06:01] <tparcina> rob_p: what's winscp?
[06:01] <Jack_Sparrow> MrObvious: did you look at xorg at all
[06:01] <MrObvious> Moufou: Try google.
[06:01] <MrObvious> Jack_Sparrow: Yup.
[06:01] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[06:01] <tparcina> rob_p: ok, I'll try sftp. thank you
[06:02] <Clavi> MrObvious: yes, I tried without too, that helps a lot. Not redrawing window while resizing/moving also helps a lot. But it's still not as responsive as I hoped.
[06:02] <MrObvious> Jack_Sparrow: I had him output cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep nv and the output was Driver "nvidia" or somethign like that.
[06:02] <rob_p> tparcina: WinSCP is a windows client that supports scp, sftp, etc. in case you need to transfer files using a windows box.
[06:02] <dug> tparcina: yeah you can do secure file transfers (sftp) with ssh, see for example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSH_file_transfer_protocol
[06:02] <Some_ux> ok, me be stupid. I forgot to uncomment stuff from the smb.conf
[06:02] <Some_ux> works now
[06:02] <MrObvious> Clavi: Hmm odd.
[06:02] <Moufou> so i have to install one more tieme the vista and do the partition in order to instal ubunto?
[06:02] <Jack_Sparrow> MrObvious: I would still like to see the xorg pasted to the pastebin... but ok
[06:02] <MrObvious> Clavi: How much system RAM do you have installed?
[06:03] <rob_p> tparcina: It's what my clients use to access their content on my server.
[06:03] <MrObvious> Jack_Sparrow: You can have him do that but you'll find what I did checked xorg.conf for which driver he had.
[06:03] <rob_p> tparcina: Anyway, good luck.
[06:03] <Clavi> MrObvious: Enlightenment really speeded things up, but I'm missing the environment when I don't have it ;)
[06:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Clavi: How did you install that driver?
[06:03] <cappiz> where can i get the source for compiz-fusion? is it the same as 	 compiz-0.5.2.tar.gz ?
[06:03] <tparcina> rob_p: dug: thank you both. If I stuck somwhere I'll contact channel.
[06:03] <Clavi> MrObvious: 256 I think
[06:03] <bullgard4> How can I run the SysRq function on a x86 laptop computer using kernel 2.6.20-16generic? Pressing the SysRq key doesn't do it.
[06:03] <rob_p> tparcina: welcome

[06:05] <tparcina> bye guys
[06:05] <Invisionfree> Can someone help me resize a VISTA NTFS partition? GParted will not do it.
[06:05] <MrObvious> Clavi: I wonder if you can try optimizing Gnome or something as you're using a lot of memory apparently just booting the computer. That's why it's slower. Try getitng at least 512 if you can.
[06:05] <Jack_Sparrow> How do we see how much  swapping is going on... any desktop effects turned on?
[06:05] <neramos> Invisionfree: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009

[06:05] <faileas> Moufou: you can do it from vista, no need to reinstall
[06:06] <Clavi> MrObvious: you don't suffer from visible redraws? your desktop system is as responsive as with xp/osx?

[06:06] <Moufou> but how i do that thats my question
[06:06] <MrObvious> Clavi: I also have 512MB of RAM on an AXP and FX5200.

[06:09] <logan> I just want to be able to run Beryl
[06:09] <MrObvious> Jabu: Okay you can't run VMware from 64 bit so I'd just say get the Desktop 32 bit.
[06:09] <Pc_Dark> so there's no GUI, MrObvious
[06:09] <PriceChild> tech13, wine is in the repositories, sudo apt-get install wine

[06:10] <Gh0Sty2K> Folks ive installed ubuntu and want to set it up as a file server for my windows network, do i need to install samba?
[06:10] <Gh0Sty2K> Where can i get the best user guide to setup a samaba server
[06:10] <PriceChild> Gh0Sty2K, if you want windows to take files from linux then yes
[06:10] <MrObvious> Clavi: A 5GB swap is rediculious IMO. How are you using that much? What do you have open?
[06:10] <PriceChild> !samba | Gh0Sty2K
[06:10] <ubotu> Gh0Sty2K: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[06:10] <MrObvious> PriceChild: Lol.
[06:10] <overclucker> Clavi, try this from console sysctl -w vm.swappiness=100
[06:10] <Pc_Dark> MrObvious: it looks like cmd line to me?
[06:10] <i3luefire> will some one please open a private chat with me to help me with making windows my default OS in grub?
[06:10] <i3luefire> i have already tried changing the default number several times but it never seems to work and it always seems to reset the default back to 0.
[06:10] <i3luefire> also i tried about 6 different installs of ubuntu on my second hard drive and would like to remove them all and do a new clean install with the version and options and packages that i have finally settled on as the ones that i like.
[06:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Clavi: Too much.. a bit overkill, on the overall but you are swapping quite a bit to disk...
[06:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Sept 07 got first lines from shrimpani on #Voyager
[06:11] <Jack_Sparrow> It saves the first 4 files to the desktop
[06:11] <Jack_Sparrow> It needs to give them a file extension with a date as in xorg.conf.09072007.10.31.am or similar
[06:11] <Jack_Sparrow> He is also working on saving a text copy of fdisk -l and an image of the boot sector to the same desktop folder
 Moufou: you can do it from vista, no need to reinstall
[06:11] <Jabu> MrObvious: Actually it is quiete easy... The stuff I am concerned with is that I don't know what it is doing "behind that window"
 but how i do that thats my question
[06:11] <MrObvious> Pc_Dark: I can't say from here.
[06:11] <dug> tech13: what version of wine do you want that has the fix?  You can get a more recent deb by adding a new source to apt-get: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[06:11] <MrObvious> Holy flood!
[06:11] <Jack_Sparrow> very sorry folks
[06:11] <Clavi> MrObvious: I'm running xfce, Konsole, maybe a Firefox and settings. That's it ;)
[06:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Please understand that was not intentional
[06:11] <MrObvious> i3luefire: Just edit the grub.conf and put make default under the Winblows entry.
[06:11] <faileas> Moufou: IIRC diskpart. never done it myself, but its part of the disk management plugin
[06:12] <MrObvious> Clavi: Wow you are swapping a lot thoug.
[06:12] <tech13> dug:  according to the guys in #winehq, it was fixed after 0.9.44, which is the last .deb.
[06:12] <Gh0Sty2K> it says Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg received a segmentation fault.
[06:12] <i3luefire> the other people that use my main computer dont like ubuntu
[06:12] <Gh0Sty2K> what does that mean?
[06:12] <Clavi> overclucker: what does it do?
[06:12] <Moufou> i pass  thanks 4 help any way
[06:12] <i3luefire> i thought i had to set the default number
[06:12] <i3luefire> in the menu.lst file
[06:13] <overclucker> Clavi, if you do sysctl -w vm.swappiness=100 then it will make you unload to swap more often, it's good if you have less ram
[06:13] <faileas> !compiz-fusion
[06:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about compiz-fusion - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[06:13] <Gh0Sty2K> What does Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg received a segmentation fault. mean?
[06:13] <Gh0Sty2K> It happens when i use apt-get install samba
[06:13] <Clavi> overclucker: cool... do I need to put that in a script at startup too?
[06:14] <Pc_Dark> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion easy enough

[06:14] <overclucker> Clavi, sysctl -w vm.swappiness=100 goes from 0 to 100, 60 is ubuntu default
[06:14] <dug> tech13: i bet they'll update that deb soon, but if you want to compile yourself, you might try adding linux headers: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[06:14] <lesshaste> are there any apps for detecting which wireless networks are available?
[06:14] <bruenig> lesshaste, iwlist
[06:14] <overclucker> to change permanantly, do: vim /etc/sysctl.conf (change vim to your default editor) and add this new line to the end: vm.swappiness=100
[06:15] <Clavi> MrObvious: what would you recommend for swap?
[06:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Thankfully there were no family secrets stored in my buffer.  FYI the script that saves a copy of xorg,fstab,sources,and grub boot now works.
[06:15] <MrObvious> i3luefire: Oops I ment menu.lst file.
[06:15] <reallyjoel> What do I do with the .run driver file I just downloaded from ATI? ./ doesn't work.
[06:15] <dug> lesshaste: if wireless is working, you can just click on the icon in the top bar and see all the access points in range, or one command line type: iwlist scan
[06:15] <overclucker> but it may not suit your purposes to use 100,
[06:15] <bruenig> Jack_Sparrow, four lines long?
[06:15] <MrObvious> Clavi: Dunno. I'd say a Gig. buy some more memory right away.
[06:15] <overclucker> you could try 90
[06:15] <nathan> when I use xmms, my sound is loud as hell.. it's only when I play videos and movies that it's too quiet and vlc (only vlc) has no sound in some files and sound in others..
[06:15] <lesshaste> dug, thanks.. I was looking for something will continuosly monitor the networks while I walk around
[06:15] <bruenig> or you could do it with a for loop in 3
[06:15] <Jack_Sparrow> bruenig: YEp about that

[06:18] <BBking> Realy weird >_<
[06:18] <BBking> *Really
[06:18] <MrObvious> BBking: If you can't get it maybe someone else will have an idea. Did you change the resolution?
[06:18] <bruenig> Some_ux, if it is a conventional file system hierarchy complaint thing that you are compiling yourself, it is conventional to put it in /usr/local
[06:18] <reallyjoel> tonyyarusso, I get a new line. No feedback whats so ever
[06:18] <MrObvious> BBking: I mean through Gnome.
[06:19] <tonyyarusso> reallyjoel: that's normal
[06:19] <BBking> Uh...how?
[06:19] <Gh0Sty2K> Is it possible to get Ubuntu to verify against a windows 2000 Active directory user account? If so how?
[06:19] <_Ulver_> h1st0, I'm using Xchat but 'by standard' it's really simplory. I can install plugins, I know but do you know another one?
[06:19] <bruenig> Some_ux, if it is not fhs complaint, you should stick it in its own directory in /opt
[06:19] <reallyjoel> tonyyarusso, so now what?
[06:19] <BBking> I just went to System etc
[06:19] <PriceChild> _Ulver_, xchat or xchat-gnome ?
[06:19] <_Ulver_> xchat
[06:19] <MrObvious> BBking: Guh. IDK honestly. I think if you go System -> Preferences -> Desktop something or Display something.
[06:19] <reallyjoel> tonyyarusso, nvm =)
[06:19] <tonyyarusso> reallyjoel: In Linux, the system assumes that things will work, and only bothers telling you if something went wrong, as opposed to Windows, which gets excited when it succeeds and gives you a "Yay!!" popup.
[06:20] <Some_ux> ok
[06:20] <reallyjoel> tonyyarusso, yeah but I have no idea what chmod does, or why I had to execute it on the file first
[06:20] <MrObvious> _Ulver_: Make sure you don't use xchat-gnome. It's a bug of Ubuntu to install that by default. :\
[06:20] <tonyyarusso> reallyjoel: sets the executable bit on the file

[06:33] <Pici> afs: Ask us the question and perhaps we can answer.
[06:33] <ompaul> i3luefire, so what you do is in a terminal: sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst  and in there you will have a word "default" and it will at the moment have a value of 0 - you need to change this to a higher number, 0 is the first entry in the list of grub that is booted, and you can count the entries below that until you come to windows or whatever its name is and then remove the number 0 and replace it with that number have a nice day

[06:37] <i3luefire> ?
[06:37] <ikonia> blinker: mount it and then type "mount" and see what its mounted
[06:37] <dudeicles> BBking: You may not have nvidia-glx installed
[06:37] <ikonia> i3luefire I'd strongly advise against it
[06:37] <bruenig> dug, I did not tell him to compile it, I am just saying that when you direct him don't tell him it is hard to compile when it isn't
[06:37] <scoin> !hi | scoin
[06:37] <Invisionfree> bruenig: The resize/move options, etc., don't work without sudo >.<
[06:37] <dug> bruenig: you need to take a nap, you are being verbally abusive and an asshole to boot
[06:37] <i3luefire> what may happen?
[06:37] <bruenig> dug, instead just tell him what to do without the incorrect unnecessary side note
[06:37] <ikonia> dug easy on the language
[06:37] <BBking> dudeicles: i'll look up the link you gave earlier on
[06:37] <MrObvious> i3luefire: Why? You can do it from Linux using several methods already mentioned. Plus it may kill something big.
[06:38] <ikonia> i3luefire corruption of your boot partition / driectory
[06:38] <bruenig> Invisionfree, use gksudo when doing graphical applications
[06:38] <Invisionfree> gksudo/
[06:38] <Invisionfree> Wtf is that?
[06:38] <i3luefire> the why is i would have to reboot
[06:38] <i3luefire> i dont like that
[06:38] <dudeicles> BBking: try 'sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[06:38] <bruenig> Invisionfree, but that shouldn't effect the problem, is the windows drive mounted?
[06:38] <dug> bruenig: he is a complete beginner to compiling.  he has never run make before in his life.  You are being an asshole to suggest that I was wrong to let him know that compiling wine from source would not be so easy.
[06:38] <i3luefire> but ok
[06:38] <faileas> i3luefire: and windows and unix text files are not the same, you'd need a unix compatable text editor
[06:38] <afs> Pici: trying that now, seems to make 'some' progess-  it is installing newer packages now, but some are still kept back
[06:38] <MrObvious> Invisionfree: It's a command to run GUI apps as root. It's like sudo only for X apps.
[06:38] <ikonia> i3luefire pardon ?
[06:38] <Invisionfree> bruenig: , not as far as I can tell, but them again, I'm not sure what I'm looking for
[06:39] <Pici> MrObvious: gksudo
[06:39] <ompaul> !language | dug
[06:39] <ubotu> dug: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:39] <bruenig> dug, it is the easiest possible compile, ./configure make make install is the easiest possible ones, there are hard compiles which require a bunch of configure options and patching and such, but wine is not one of those
[06:39] <afs> Pici: thanks for the pointer
[06:39] <Pici> afs: sometimes it takes a few upgrades to get all the packages.

[06:40] <ikonia> shwouchk thats only a personal opinion though
[06:40] <Jabu> Uboto you are cool
[06:40] <k31th> i have xp on this machine for games... and it only sees 3gb... i know this is a crappy limit by ms buit i didnt realise 32bit was as low as 4gb ??
[06:40] <MrObvious> dudeicles: Don't treat the bot like that!!!!!!!!1
[06:40] <dudeicles> BBking: That was the error you got when you ran that command in terminal?
[06:40] <afs> Pici: this might take me some time

[06:40] <BBking> Yes.

[06:40] <ikonia> k31th thats not relevant in this channel
[06:40] <shwouchk> what is more recommended - lvm or evms?
[06:40] <dudeicles> type it exactly like this

[06:40] <ikonia> ikonia your welcome to join me in #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to discuss it a bit more

[06:41] <Invisionfree> nano /etc/mtab?
[06:41] <PriceChild> liam, irc is for talking.
[06:41] <Pici> BBking: sudo -K
[06:41] <i3luefire> it is just that i have tried so many times to do the things that everyone here has suggested and it never seems to work. and i am getting frustrated. can i run my linux under a VM to do the edit?
[06:41] <bruenig> Invisionfree, yeah or just cat /etc/mtab, its a short file
[06:41] <Invisionfree> K
[06:41] <liam> and you can also download files
[06:41] <afs> Pici: at least this time I'm making a 'edgy'stop in between. my box didnt like the dapper->feisty transition
[06:41] <ikonia> i3luefire no as thats a different install
[06:41] <MrObvious> k31th: I know this is off topic but you'll need to install 64 bit Winblows. There is a problem with 32 bit and 4GB as MFT uses it up.
[06:41] <dudeicles> Pici: What does sudo -K do?
[06:41] <PriceChild> liam, what do you want?
[06:41] <faileas> liam: you can't use irc to download, you can send and recieve files via DCC, but not 'download'
[06:41] <Pici> afs: Yes, it isn't reccomended that you skip releases when upgrading.
[06:42] <BBking> same error if i run that Pici
[06:42] <liam> thats the same as downloading
[06:42] <k31th> MrObvious: yeah, i just wondered if ubuntu would see the full 4gb.
[06:42] <ikonia> k31th: if you use 64 bit it would
[06:42] <k31th> does anyone play CS in Cedega?
[06:42] <martiiin_> What does i get "  [ Error writing /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Permission denied ]  "
[06:42] <MrObvious> k31th: Probably not.
[06:42] <Pici> dudeicles: resets the sudo timestamp
[06:42] <Invisionfree> bruenig: I see no /dev/sda# in it
[06:42] <dudeicles> hmmm
[06:42] <Pici> martiiin_: You need sudo privs to write to it.
[06:42] <Jabu> Another maybe comon question i guess: Will i need further stuff to harden ubuntu?
[06:42] <MrObvious> k31th: But 64 bit works better in Linux than Winblows.
[06:42] <dudeicles> he's still having the error though
[06:42] <liam> i just want some apps for ubuntu
[06:42] <k31th> i see.
[06:42] <ikonia> MrObvious thats not true, but this is offtopic
[06:42] <bruenig> Invisionfree, ok and that is the disk with ntfs?
[06:42] <Pici> liam: Use the package repositories.
[06:42] <k31th> ther eis not 64bit flash player etc tho ?
[06:43] <MrObvious> Jabu: As in making Ubuntu more secure?
[06:43] <PriceChild> liam, Applications > Add/Remove...
[06:43] <PriitM> Hi! Font sizes are too big in java appelts. I've tried installing sun-java6-fonts, msttcorefonts, changed font.properties and font.config. tried different brousers. using ubuntu 7.04
[06:43] <MrObvious> Jabu: Unless it's a server that is exposed to the Internet that does a lot of critical applications, probably not.
[06:43] <Invisionfree> bruenig: Yes, /dev/sda1 holds Vista on an NTFS formatted partition
[06:43] <Jabu> MrObvious: yes. Firewall, ip filter, you know...
[06:43] <liam> it's not there it has dissapeard
[06:43] <MrObvious> Jabu: I haven't seen any viruses really for Linux yet.
[06:43] <bruenig> Invisionfree, ok and there is no option to delete the partition in gparted?
[06:43] <MrObvious> Jabu: They exist but not like on even OS X.
[06:43] <markelhas> hi ppl need to restore my toolbars, how can i do that!? at the moment i've to start gonome safe seesion to have bars.
[06:44] <Invisionfree> bruenig: There is, but I don't wanna lose my files :(
[06:44] <Jabu> MrObvious: yepp, i know, but i dont need to use a virus if somone opens me adoor
[06:44] <bruenig> Invisionfree, you can't partition without losing your files
[06:44] <bruenig> Invisionfree, I mean format without losing
[06:44] <dudeicles> BBking: Try Synaptic Package Manager
[06:44] <MrObvious> Jabu: Is this a critical server or just a small end server or a desktop?
[06:44] <Invisionfree> bruenig: All I'm trying to do is resize, not format...
[06:44] <Jabu> MrObvious: means, i am curious about privacy
[06:44] <markelhas> need to restore my toolbars, how can i do that!? at the moment i've to start gonome safe seesion to have bars. Any tips!
[06:44] <BBking> But what does this mean: sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Sep  8 20:15:51 2007
[06:44] <MrObvious> markelhas: Do you mean your toolbars that gnome has/
[06:44] <ikonia> BBking: you clock is wrong
[06:44] <ikonia> your
[06:45] <MrObvious> BBking: Clock is off.
[06:45] <MrObvious> :p
[06:45] <markelhas> MrObvious, yaps the default
[06:45] <Pici> BBking: Did you run `sudo -K` like I suggested?
[06:45] <PriitM> Hi! Font sizes are too big in java appelts. I've tried installing sun-java6-fonts, msttcorefonts, changed font.properties and font.config. tried different brousers. using ubuntu 7.04
[06:45] <BBking> Yes, same error
[06:45] <Pici> BBking: What about sudo -k
[06:45] <bruenig> Invisionfree, what happens when you try to resize?
[06:45] <Jabu> MrObvious: this will be a small end desktop (i guess). But i think i will run a torrent client... so it will serve as a server in that case
[06:45] <markelhas> MrObvious, they are gone
[06:45] <BBking> Pici: same error
[06:45] <dug> PriitM: what is an example applet with fonts too big
[06:45] <liam> is there another way of getting add and remove instead of  the package manager?
[06:45] <Invisionfree> bruenig: It just says it can't do it =\
[06:45] <aztec13> its thw weirdest thing i havent been able to get gmail to open the only thing i can think why its hanging and wont open the page is that its ssl

[06:46] <markelhas> MrObvious, when i login just the desktop :P
[06:46] <dug> PriitM: i mean, can you show me a real applet so I can see if the fonts are big on my system too
[06:46] <bruenig> Invisionfree, try resizing it down by 1 mb or something really small
[06:46] <Invisionfree> bruenig: Would you like a screenshot of it?
[06:46] <bruenig> no
[06:46] <dudeicles> BBking:  try this. Open' System>Administration>Time and Date
[06:46] <dudeicles> make sure it's set to 2007
[06:47] <Invisionfree> bruenig: Nope, 3 MB fails
[06:47] <aztec13> you got one of gmail?
[06:47] <markelhas> MrObvious, any tips!
[06:47] <dudeicles> then use the bottom button to synchronize as well
[06:47] <dudeicles> see if that helps
[06:47] <bruenig> Invisionfree, I've never resized ntfs, I know it can be done but I don't know under what conditions, perhaps the drive is fragmented?

[06:59] <nathan> why is it that for my new account test//testing to sudo he needs to put in HIS password, testing ??
[06:59] <dudeicles> did you reboot?
[06:59] <dug> Gosha: google for 'ubuntu twinview' and you'll see some tips
[06:59] <BBking> Yes dudeicles
[06:59] <Gosha> Okay, thanks
[06:59] <jzl> bruenig: awesome, care to tell me what the -e is?
[06:59] <beerfan> Anyone had problems with latest compiz fusion not showing window borders for WINE apps?
[06:59] <bruenig> jzl, you need to check the man page of whichever terminal you are using, but it stands for execute
[06:59] <bruenig> jzl, some of them are -x
[07:00] <bruenig> jzl, basically the command reads, launch the terminal and execute script.sh
[07:00] <dudeicles> BBking: You may also need to install nvidia-settings
[07:00] <BBking> sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings?
[07:00] <dudeicles> yeah
[07:00] <jzl> bruenig: ok.. just the default one on ubuntu under the Accessories menu
[07:00] <bruenig> jzl, I think that is gnome-terminal, I don't know how the parameters work for it
[07:00] <Aminux> how do i install AIGLX?
[07:00] <BBking> :o Maybe that's it
[07:01] <BBking> installing now
[07:01] <dudeicles> BBking: I hope so.
[07:01] <afs> markelhas: are you sure you are running a gnome-session?
[07:01] <nathan> why is it that for my new account test//testing to sudo he needs to put in HIS password, testing ??
[07:01] <BBking> me 2 :)
[07:01] <jzl> bruenig: I will look into that... thanks a lot
[07:01] <dudeicles> BBking: I know it too me a lot of searching to figure it out.
[07:01] <bullgard4> English help wanted: Doing 'gnome-keybinding-properties' in a Gnome terminal will open a dialog. What is the English name of this dialog as seen in its upper row?
[07:01] <markelhas> afs, think so
[07:01] <shwouchk> I keep getting warning from aptitude about mdadm.conf defining no arrays. can I safely Ignore it or should I define them?
[07:01] <ian_001> is there a light weight graphical archive tool anyone can recommend that i might fnid in the repos?
[07:01] <markelhas> afs didn't change to other
[07:02] <markelhas> but i going to try it again
[07:02] <beerfan> bullgard4: "Keyboard Shortcuts"
[07:02] <bullgard4> beerfan: Thank you very much.
[07:02] <dug> ian_001: search synaptic package manager for 'svn' for example, and it will list some graphical front-ends
[07:02] <BBking> Dudeicles
[07:02] <dudeicles> brb i'm hungry
[07:02] <dudeicles> yeah
[07:03] <BBking> Do i have to restart?
[07:03] <Jabapyth> I tried to apt-get nvu, but it couldnt fing it. What repository do I need to add?
[07:03] <Jabapyth> *find
[07:03] <ikonia> Jabapyth nvu is dead
[07:03] <dudeicles> BBking: if you don't see it right awya, I would. That's was how I got mine to work.
[07:03] <ikonia> its been forked
[07:03] <Jabapyth> ...:(
[07:03] <Jabapyth> into what?
[07:03] <ikonia> can't remember the name
[07:03] <dudeicles> BBking: if all taht don't work the last thing I did was the auto resolution checker and rebooted.
[07:03] <ikonia> amv or something
[07:03] <ian_001> i meant for looking at the contents of zip files and other archive types
[07:03] <BBking> i can start nvidia-settings in the terminal
[07:03] <BBking> but i can't configure the resolution
[07:04] <ian_001> i am using openbox and dont have nautilus installed
[07:04] <BBking> auto resolution checker?
[07:04] <BBking> Where can I get it?
[07:04] <dug> ian_001: if you double click a zip or .tar.gz file, nautilus (gnome's file manager) will let you explore them
[07:04] <kdubois> how do you set the side button on a wacom stylus to function as a right click, as opposed to scrollwhell click?
[07:04] <dudeicles> so it says
[07:04] <dudeicles> BBking:  let me find you the link
[07:04] <nathan> can anyone explain to me sudo? why would only knowing your own password be good enough for root access?
[07:04] <PriitM> dug: thank you for the help! I manage to solve the problem with installing java jre 5 :)
[07:04] <dudeicles> BBking: It lets you choose how high you want your resolution, but the first time I did it, it didn't work
[07:04] <dudeicles> BBking: maybe it will work for you. brb
[07:04] <Jabapyth> ikonia: is therer something like nvu I can get?
[07:04] <faileas> nathan: its not quite root account but root privledhes
[07:05] <SeveredCross> !sudo | nathan
[07:05] <ubotu> nathan: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:05] <BBking> dudeicles i'll restart now
[07:05] <ikonia> Jabapyth no idea
[07:05] <faileas> sudo gives you root for just that one co,,ad
[07:05] <faileas> command
[07:05] <quaal> why when i'm burning a dvd with k3b does the growisofs process use all my cpu and the buffers goto 0% ?
[07:05] <Aminux> hello
[07:05] <dudeicles> !resolution | BBking
[07:05] <ubotu> BBking: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:05] <Aminux> can anyone help pls
[07:05] <Vlet> I'm trying to hook my hdtv up via svideo, and even thought I've set the right resolution, the display is shrunk down, only taking up a portion of the center of the screen... anyone know why?
[07:05] <Gh0Sty2K> how do i restart swat
[07:05] <nathan> I just assumed you needed the root password to do the commands. Is there a way to set it up where users can run root commands by entering the root password?
[07:05] <Gh0Sty2K> it does not seem to recognise the command
[07:06] <SeveredCross> Gh0Sty2K: sudo /etc/init.d/swat restart
[07:06] <kdubois> nathan, you can switch to the superuser with the 'su' command...
[07:06] <Aminux> how can i install ATI open drivers?
[07:06] <Gh0Sty2K> SeveredCross:  says command not found
[07:06] <Gh0Sty2K> SeveredCross:  but i have installed it as far as i am aware
[07:06] <kdubois> Aminux: i think they're installed by default, at least for radeons....
[07:06] <SeveredCross> Gh0Sty2K: Are you sure it's installed? That's the standard way to restart a daemon.
[07:06] <logan_> I am trying to use the restricted NVIDIA driver but when I click it nothing happends
[07:07] <Gh0Sty2K> SeveredCross:  let me recheck
[07:07] <nathan> kbrosnan: I made an account test//testing . when he clicks on synaptic package manager I want it to ask for the root password.
[07:07] <dgjones> Jabapyth, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kompozer
[07:07] <Aminux> kdubois: i uninstalled them by mistake
[07:07] <Journeyman> is there a way to make it so when I use apt to install it puts the program all in /usr/local/PROGRAM
[07:07] <kdubois> Aminux: was it an uninstall of the binaries, or did you just disable it in xorg.conf?
[07:07] <Journeyman> rather than spreading it out among /usr/bin /usr/lib /etc and so on
[07:08] <Aminux> binaries
[07:08] <Jabapyth> dgjones: thaks so much!
[07:08] <Aminux> the xorg.conf is unchanged
[07:08] <afs> nathan: there *is* no root password
[07:08] <logan_> I am trying to use the restricted NVIDIA driver but when I click it nothing happends
[07:08] <SeveredCross> I don't understand why you want to make everyone know the root password.
[07:08] <SeveredCross> How many users are going to be using the box?
[07:08] <nathan> afs: there *is* a root password on my system
[07:08] <SeveredCross> Then modify sudo
[07:08] <SeveredCross> You need to edit /etc/sudoers
[07:09] <afs> nathan: ah. ok ;-) sudo is a per-user privilege thing, it wont ask for the root password
[07:09] <kdubois> Aminux: try sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati
[07:09] <afs> (you can use 'su' if you want to enter that one
[07:09] <SeveredCross> Well.
[07:09] <SeveredCross> Sudo can ask for the root password.
[07:09] <SeveredCross> It does on almost every other distro.
[07:09] <nathan> SeveredCross: because if I set it up that way, I could install programs and administer without having to log in as myself or root to do it, and at the same time the user wouldn't be able to mess anything up
[07:09] <SeveredCross> nathan: Then just remove them from the admin group.
[07:09] <beerfan> nathan: sudo bash
[07:09] <SeveredCross> Nobody but users in the admin group can use sudo
[07:10] <kdubois> nathan, you can specify what users get sudo access, you know
[07:10] <SeveredCross> No, not sudo bash, sudo -s or sudo -i
[07:10] <afs> nathan: i'd use sudo -s
[07:10] <Aminux> kdubois: it says already installed
[07:10] <nathan> SeveredCross: I want to be able to administer from anyone's account
[07:10] <reallyjoel> Do I have to do something for executables to be doubleclick-able?
[07:10] <nathan> as in click on synaptic package manager
[07:10] <SeveredCross> Man, you're making this situation complicated.
[07:10] <kdubois> Aminux: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-video-ati
[07:10] <beerfan> nathan: no you don't
[07:10] <ZAKhan> how to install flash 9?
[07:10] <tuqann> hi, anyone knows why sometimes my Ubuntu system when moving large number of files at the same time or big files from my EXT to my FAT32 they disappear when i boot to my XP system?
[07:10] <PriceChild> reallyjoel, chmod +x /path/to/file
[07:10] <nathan> I just assumed this was how it was set up this whole time and I'm kind of surprised it's far less secure than I thought
[07:10] <Aminux> kdubois: nothing happened
[07:11] <SeveredCross> Modify /etc/sudoers, and if sudo is modified to ask for the user's password and not the root password at the ode lefvel, recompile sudo.
[07:11] <beerfan> ZAKhan: sudo apt-get install flash-nonfree
[07:11] <SeveredCross> nathan: How is it LESS secure to not have a root password?
[07:11] <kronos> can anyone help me with maildrop in a virtual mail setup ? I need maildrop for quota, but I can't get it to work.
[07:11] <PriceChild> beerfan, flashplugin-nonfree
[07:11] <SeveredCross> Not having a root password prevents you from a lot of different attacks.
[07:11] <dug> reallyjoel: or right click the file in nautilus, go to properties,and make it executable
[07:11] <nathan> SeveredCross: because now any old bum who has sudo access is exactly the same as a full root
[07:11] <reallyjoel> PriceChild, I mean the behavior of the file browser
[07:11] <quaal> what is a good burning program
[07:11] <SeveredCross> Then remove their sudo access! Or limit the commands they can run.
[07:11] <PriceChild> reallyjoel, should normally work fine, will ask you whether you want to read or execute
[07:11] <kdubois> Aminux: something might have happened. make sure that somewhere in you xorg.conf the ati driver is specified, and then restart your xserver. hopefully the reconfiguring took effect
[07:11] <SeveredCross> quaal: K3B is probably the best.
[07:11] <ZAKhan> beerfan, "E: Couldn't find package flash-nonfree"
[07:12] <quaal> SeveredCross, it sucks
[07:12] <nathan> SeveredCross: that means all you need for root access is ANYONE's access who is on sudo
[07:12] <SeveredCross> Gnomebaker?
[07:12] <quaal> i'm getting 0% buffer while burning a dvd at 4x
[07:12] <quaal> unacceptable
[07:12] <beerfan> ZAKhan: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[07:12] <nathan> that's dissapointing to me and I think I need to take a break right now..
[07:12] <SeveredCross> nathan: Yeah but that's a bit harder to accomolish.
[07:12] <beerfan> ZAKhan: sorry
[07:12] <SeveredCross> You need to guess a username first.
[07:12] <SeveredCross> Those are a lot harder to guess compared to just trying root and guessing a root password.
[07:12] <kdubois> ZAKhan: download from adobe's website, extract the packages and then put the .so file in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
[07:12] <dudeicles> BBking: Is it workign now?
[07:12] <SeveredCross> Despite what you may think, it ends up being more secure, at least IMO.
[07:12] <reallyjoel> PriceChild, Konqueror doesnt say or do a thing when I doubleclick a file that i executable according to Konqueror itself
[07:13] <nathan> SeveredCross: having full access to many users is not more secure than only to one imo.
[07:13] <reallyjoel> i=is
[07:13] <PriceChild> reallyjoel, ahhh i was thinking you were talking nautilus in ubuntu, I don't know sorry
[07:13] <Aminux> kdubois: is this section correct ?
[07:13] <marrabld> can anyone help me. i am trying to install the libmad.0 for K3B.   I didi through the synaptic but K3b is teilling me that it cant find it.
[07:13] <BBking> Dudeicles: I booted up my pc, and I got an error, which prevented me starting ubuntu, so I installed sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[07:13] <user12345> Does anyone here know if, given that I can't boot feisty from the Live CD but can install Dapper, that if I manage to upgrade to feisty ill lose access to the drives again?
[07:13] <SeveredCross> marrabld: sudo apt-get install libmad0
[07:13] <Aminux> kdubois: Section "Extensions"
[07:13] <Aminux> 	Option		"Composite"	"Enable"
[07:13] <Aminux> 	Option		"Composite"	"0"
[07:13] <Aminux> EndSection
[07:13] <BBking> And no it's not working
[07:14] <ZAKhan> beerfan, after installing it usopen.org still gives an error "This application requires features of Flash 9, at minimum"
[07:14] <nathan> it would be more secure if you had no one on the sudo ilst, *I see that*, but in a situation where I don't want to have to log in as root all the time it's kind of insecure.
[07:14] <SeveredCross> nathan: I really don't see your point. If you don't want everyone to have root access, remove their sudo privileges.
[07:14] <dudeicles> BBking: try the link from ubotu

[07:14] <marrabld> tryed that, still K3b says cant find it
[07:14] <beerfan> ZAKhan: you have to restart firefox
[07:14] <ZAKhan> beerfan, i did
[07:14] <beerfan> ZAKhan: sorry then ;-)
[07:14] <SeveredCross> If you want to be able to administer from their accounts, you can always use a combination of su and sudo to change to your user first and then sudo to do whatever you need.
[07:14] <scipio> ZAKhan, that site gives me problems as well. flash works for other websites
[07:14] <high-freq> anyone know how to tell which package has libdvdcss2 in it?
[07:14] <shwouchk> please help! I can't setup an lvm logical volume... heres the error I get: http://rafb.net/p/qbbCFq63.html
[07:14] <dudeicles> BBking: I hope that helps you buddy. I have to go, but if you are here in like half an hour to an hour I'll see if I can help you again
[07:15] <dug> !flash
[07:15] <ubotu> 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
[07:15] <BBking> dudeicles: Thanks very much :)
[07:15] <Aminux> kdubois: is that it?
[07:15] <kdubois> Aminux: no, thats not the right section. running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" will reconfigure the x server best it knows how. hopefully that will solve your problem. to look for the driver, run cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep ati to find it...
[07:15] <BBking> i'll be on
[07:15] <nathan> SeveredCross: my point is this: imagine a network of 40 people using ubuntu. every time you want to install something on someone's computer you have to go over and log out completely and then log in as root just to do it because they don't have sudo access. waste of time imo. wouldn't it be much nicer to have it where all you had to do is go to synaptic and type in the root pw?
[07:15] <beerfan> Anyone know how to solve no window borders for WINE apps?
[07:15] <shwouchk> help!
[07:15] <Aminux> kdubois: ok,time to reset
[07:15] <SeveredCross> nathan: Then like I said, look into editing /etc/sudoers to your whims.
[07:16] <SeveredCross> And if sudo is compiled in to ask for the user and not the root password, recompile sudo.
[07:16] <afs> nathan: thats not the way it works
[07:16] <nathan> beerfan: http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?p=26001 it's unsolved
[07:16] <pespin> can anyone help me with a gtk programming trouble or redirect me to another IRC channel?
[07:16] <afs> nathan:  if you're administrating large networks and need to fix something on a specific computer you dont go over to fix it, you login remotely and do your magic.
[07:16] <beerfan> nathan: thanks for the link. Saw that but hoped it was solved elsewhere
[07:17] <kdubois> pespin: #gtk is good, and the gtkmm documentation has a great tutorial for C++
[07:17] <nathan> SeveredCross: that wouldn't help anything because I would still have to log out and back in as root
[07:17] <SeveredCross> No.
[07:17] <SeveredCross> That would help because you'd make sudo ask for the root password.
[07:17] <shwouchk> please help! I can't setup an lvm logical volume... heres the error I get: http://rafb.net/p/qbbCFq63.html
[07:17] <user12345> I can't get my dell to find my "Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx Gigabit Controller" NIC using Dapper, do you think feisty would find it better?
[07:17] <SeveredCross> !repeat | shwouchk
[07:17] <SeveredCross> Bah.
[07:17] <dug> pespin: also I'd add that there are a lot of gtk related channels on the irc.gimp.net server

[07:17] <nathan> SeveredCross: orly? let me take another look at that.
[07:17] <ZAKhan> scipio, does it work with opera?
[07:17] <SeveredCross> nathan: If you modify it right, it should.
[07:18] <SeveredCross> I don't know much about it.
[07:18] <pespin> dug: ok I'll try
[07:18] <SeveredCross> man sudo is your friend.
[07:18] <rathel> I'm trying to make a script, and I need to use the "if/then/else" statement, how do I use it with a running app, I mean like "if gimp is running then do..."?
[07:18] <markelhas> afs, solved i've create a launcher in desktop calling gnome-panel
[07:18] <scipio> ZAKhan, don't have opera installed. btw if you want to see the results you can switch to the html version or go to another site :)
[07:18] <pespin> kdubois: I'm already in the #gtk channel (user Sharwin_F) and well.... its quite silently xD
[07:18] <ronald__> epale
[07:18] <nathan> I only see like 3 lines of code, none of which are obviously what I need
[07:18] <afs> markelhas: good!
[07:18] <markelhas> afs, the alt-f2 only work when the gnome-panel is active
[07:18] <bruenig> rathel, the way I usually do it is if [ -n "$(ps -a | grep gimp)" ] 
[07:18] <omegaweopon> Can anyone assist me in a compiling question
[07:18] <dug> user12345: are you trying to get wireless to work with your dell wireless card?
[07:18] <ZAKhan> scipio, the live screboard is something nice
[07:18] <markelhas> afs, thnks for the help
[07:19] <bruenig> rathel, the way I usually do it is if [ -n "$(ps -A | grep gimp)" ] 
[07:19] <SeveredCross> Actually, you probably want man sudoers
[07:19] <rathel> bruenig, Ah thanks I'ma try that.
[07:19] <blinker> I need help with corrupt data on my drive. I ran fsck and it gets an error while scanning inodes. how would I go about fixing this problem?

[07:19] <Desolato1> anyone able to answer a few questions about installing 7.04 (feisty)?

[07:20] <ubotu> Deolato1: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:20] <SeveredCross> nathan: The flag you're looking for is rootpw by the way.
[07:20] <SeveredCross> Read man sudoers
[07:20] <nathan> SeveredCross: ok I will thanks
[07:20] <nathan> SeveredCross: I can see that I might need this option soon so I want to be prepared for it is all.

[07:21] <threat> Desolato1: hehe
[07:21] <nathan> Desolato1: the question is ~ do you want to keep the xp and data?
[07:21] <Desolato1> no
[07:21] <threat> Desolato1: use ext2 or 3 then
[07:21] <dug> Desolato1: You can install an extension in windows xp to access linux drives, such as explore2fs.  I'd choose ext3

[07:22] <threat> ifs2
[07:22] <nathan> Can someone explain to me what Topz Brainstorm is?

[07:22] <threat> http://www.fs-driver.org/
[07:22] <SeveredCross> Desolato1, 512 MB?
[07:22] <Desolato1> and what type to make the swap partition? primary or logical?

[07:22] <nathan> threat: for me that would be 6gb of swap =] 
[07:23] <Desolato1> On xp I got 512 standard, with max of 1 gig...I guess 512 is enough
[07:23] <threat> nathan: nice
[07:23] <user12345> is it true that I need to upgrade to Edgy from Dapper before I can upgrade to feisty?
[07:23] <fulio> where can i download  xwinwrap, and im using fiesty.

[07:23] <Desolato1> (05:22:39 PM) Desolato1: and what type to make the swap partition? primary or logical?
[07:23] <BBking> Eventually, my resolution is 1440x990 !!
[07:24] <BBking> :-D
[07:24] <BBking> Thanks all
[07:24] <dug> user12345: it doesn't appear so.  Here are some tutorials: http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&q=upgrade+edgy+to+feisty&btnG=Google+Search
[07:24] <user12345> what chance do you think that the alternate feisty CD will work when the regular one doesnt?
[07:24] <dug> user12345: you might try the ubuntu gutsy tribe 5 cd if the feisty cd won't load up for you
[07:24] <realshiva> hi guys im searching for a shell for gnome, with that i can do copy and paste
[07:25] <Desolato1> user12345: you'd better make a fresh install
[07:25] <nathan___> who asked about xwinwrap?
[07:25] <jrib> realshiva: a shell or termiinal emulator?
[07:25] <Pici> !gutsy | user12345
[07:25] <ubotu> user12345: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[07:25] <Desolato1> 05:23:54 PM) Desolato1: (05:22:39 PM) Desolato1: and what type to make the swap partition? primary or logical? -- can anyone answer?
[07:25] <realshiva> jrib,  sry i mean a terminal emulatior
[07:25] <beerfan> realshiva: ctrl-shift-v to paste
[07:25] <nathan___> I did some massive detective work and found out where to download xwinwrap for you! here it is --> http://www.google.com/search?&q=xwinwrap  <--then click the very first link!
[07:25] <mosimea> I've created a new user, logged in as that user, but found the screen resolution at 1920x1440 rather than a preferred 1600x1200, as my first user is set up.  I can open the Nvidia settings and change the resolution but cannot seem to save the settings.  How is this possible to do, or how might I set a global default resolution?
[07:26] <realshiva> you are kidding me ...
[07:26] <jrib> realshiva: ctrl-shift-c and ctrl-shift-v let you copy and paste in gnome-terminal.  Or, just hilight to copy and middle click to paste (I prefer this)
[07:26] <dug> Desolato1: logical is fine.  it doesn't matter, except that you can only have so many primary partitions (4 i think)
[07:26] <Desolato1> dug: thanks
[07:26] <nathan___> can anyone tell me what Topaz Brainstorm is?
[07:26] <beerfan> realshiva: ctrl-c does something else in a terminal than "copy"
[07:26] <user12345> ok, the root cause of me not being able to use feisty CD is something about the hard drives, heres a page with someone with the same problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279884
[07:26] <eddiestone> automatix website is offline. there are any alternative website where I can get automatix ?
[07:27] <Pici> !automatix | eddiestone
[07:27] <ubotu> eddiestone: 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.

[07:27] <nathan___> user12345: have you checked the disc for defects?
[07:27] <blinker> nathan__: did you try googling it? ^^
[07:27] <Tiradin> I'm running Ubuntu's liveCD on a ThinkPad T23 beside me, and I'm trying to decide if it's running slow because it's off a CD or if it's because it only has 256MB of ram...
[07:27] <eddiestone> Pici: very useful, thanks
[07:27] <Gosha> What should I use instead of Amarok in gnome?
[07:27] <nathan___> blinker: yes I have thank you though
[07:27] <Pici> Tiradin: Probably the lack of RAM.
[07:27] <blinker> =p
[07:27] <Tiradin> Another issue I have is that I had to replace the original hard drive with a much smaller one (Around 500mb, i believe.) Will I still be able to install/run Ubuntu with such a small drive?
[07:27] <beerfan> Gosha: rhythmbox
[07:27] <Desolato1> last time I visited this room there was a bot which could guide you through installing
[07:28] <mosimea> Gosha: Banshee
[07:28] <user12345> nathan: no, I can try that, i'm almost done with the alternate CD download and if that doesnt work Ill try checking for defects
[07:28] <underdog5004> Tiradin, probably not the graphical version.
[07:28] <eddiestone> automatix website is offline. there are any alternative website where I can get automatix ? or anybody can send it to me? (feisty 32 bits)
[07:28] <dug> Tiradin: probably both I'm afraid :)
[07:28] <underdog5004> Tiradin, if it was me, I'd install the CLI version and add gui components manually
[07:28] <nathan___> user12345: I had strange troubles with an ubuntu install, turned out to be the disc so I'd start there; takes about 8 minutes
[07:28] <Gosha> Hmm, okay, thanks.
[07:28] <nathan___> Tiradin: no you can't install the full version on that paperweight
[07:29] <nathan___> Tiradin: I believe you need a 2 gb for it.
[07:29] <dug> Gosha: in addition to Banshee, there is Muine
[07:29] <Tiradin> Could anyone suggest a better distro of Linux to install on this then? perhaps DSL? :P

[07:29] <Moez_> An idea how to fix the MBR ? I buy a new machine, and i would like to delete ubuntu from the old machine.
[07:29] <Tiradin> It runs Gnome i'm assuming? :P
[07:29] <dug> Tiradin: yeah DSL is good, see pendrivelinux.com

[07:30] <ZAKhan> is there a way to install shockwave?
[07:30] <Tiradin> This is only temporary... in a couple of weeks I'll be able to purchase a replacement drive.

[07:31] <ZAKhan> bruenig, other then wine?

[07:31] <bruenig> ZAKhan, no
[07:31] <nathan___> Tiradin: why not sell 3 popsicle sticks and buy a bigger drive =/
[07:31] <Desolato1> can ubuntu get my files from windows, like ff (fx whatever) profile (I need my list of passwords), and stuff from thunderbird, etc?
[07:31] <Tiradin> [-] Pici[-]  thank you anyway :P

[07:32] <beerfan> Desolato1: course
[07:32] <cyphase> ZAKhan: you mean cypher1? ;)
[07:32] <Pici> Desolato1: The liveCD install will attempt to get your stuff from your windows profile.
[07:32] <Tiradin> nathan___ - the hard drive that came in the laptop was a 20gb, and it doesn't sound too healthy... it rattles when handled... previous owner took it in and they said it may be cracked inside or something....
[07:32] <Desolato1> that's good
[07:32] <ZAKhan> oh yeah sorry
[07:32] <cyphase> ZAKhan: np
[07:33] <nathan___> Tiradin: try puppy linux, that says it's a complete up-to-date desktop suite in 28-70 MB

[07:34] <faileas> beerfan: possible
[07:34] <faileas> i did at least ;p
[07:34] <bruenig> beerfan, that's pushing it, I would go lighter than xubuntu myself but you could press it

[07:38] <joshritger> dug: just wanted to make sure that I didn't mess anything up before I did go ahead and replace all the files
[07:38] <beerfan> Desolato1: the live cd runs from ram. If you run the partition editor it will mount your hard drive partitions. You'll have to determine what noises you're hearing for yourself
[07:38] <Desolato1> nice! thank you!
[07:38] <kane77> it never stops amusing me...
[07:38] <Desolato1> well I don't have anything started except gaim & ff
[07:39] <kingKonqueror> is anyone familiar with using evolution as a usenet newsreader?
[07:39] <BBking> eat <<
[07:39] <Desolato1> btw, why does fetsy include evolution by default and not thunderbird?
[07:39] <BBking> kingKonqueror use klibido
[07:40] <beerfan> evolution is the gnome standard mail app
[07:40] <dug> Desolato1: prob. because evolution is a gnome application
[07:40] <Desolato1> >.>
[07:40] <ConstyXIV> Desolato1: we've always inc. evolution
[07:40] <Desolato1> dapper had tb
[07:40] <Gosha> How do I close a terminal tab without ending the process i started in it?
[07:40] <Desolato1> as DEFAULT
[07:40] <beerfan> Desolato1: if you want TB, install it
[07:40] <kingKonqueror> is that another newsreader, BBking? if so, i already have another one (Pan) but I am trying to consolidate things into evolution
[07:40] <ConstyXIV> no, not that i remember
[07:40] <Desolato1> well I know, I was just asking
[07:40] <beerfan> Gosha: run stuff with ALT-F2
[07:40] <BBking> That's an other newsreader yes.
[07:41] <dug> Gosha: after you've already started it I'm not sure.  But before you do, you can run "nohup yourcommand &"  and then be able to close the terminal
[07:41] <Gosha> beerfan: ?
[07:41] <Desolato1> AFAIK 6.06 had tb as default, 7.04 has ev
[07:41] <Gosha> ..
[07:41] <Gosha> nohup?
[07:41] <Gosha> .. *tries*
[07:41] <ConstyXIV> evolution has been default since breezy (5.10)
[07:41] <Gosha> .. why the &?
[07:41] <dug> Gosha: and an ampersand at the end to run it in the background
[07:41] <Gosha> I see
[07:41] <jrib> Gosha: nohup or screen.  Or disown the job after you run it
[07:41] <beerfan> it'll still die if terminal is closed though
[07:42] <Gosha> or, wait?
[07:42] <Gosha> .. in the background?
[07:42] <Gosha> As in, it won't show up?
[07:42] <dug> Gosha: no, i mean as a separate thread
[07:42] <kane77> how do I list mountet partitions and their sizes? (esp. swap)
[07:42] <Desolato1> anyway, I'll go to install, I'll come here if I have any questions
[07:42] <Desolato1> wish me luck
[07:42] <jrib> kane77: df -h
[07:42] <Gosha> .. It worked without the &, what is the difference, I don't get it.
[07:42] <dug> Gosha: try for example "nohup gedit &" then close terminal.  gedit will still be running
[07:43] <Gosha> ..
[07:43] <Gosha> well
[07:43] <Gosha> If i take the & away it's still running when i close the terminal
[07:43] <jrib> Gosha: to see what the & does try 'gedit &' vs 'gedit' (and try to use your terminal)
[07:43] <kane77> jrib, that should list also swap, right?
[07:44] <Gosha> ..
[07:44] <Gosha> No difference, jrib
[07:44] <neol> /server irc.spotchat.org
[07:44] <dug> Gosha: without the &, you can't continue to use the terminal.  the app blocks input.  With the &, it runs in a separate thread and you can continue typing in the terminal
[07:44] <Gosha> Oh
[07:44] <Gosha> I see, thanks
[07:44] <beerfan> Gosha: & has no effect on what you want to do
[07:44] <Gosha> I understand now, thanks. ^^
[07:44] <drock> What log has Gnome messages?  I wanna see what's happening during login.

[07:56] <brand0con> hi all.  I'm running a dual boot setup with 2 hard drives but my windows drive is making the click of death and im having a replacement sent.  ive backed up my data that i need but wheni  try to remove the secondary/xp drive grub wont boot.  its like it depends on the secondary drive.  is there a dependency there?  are boot records recorded on that drive somehow even tho it was ntfs
[07:56] <tarelerulz> I have web cam and I would like to know how to use it under ubuntu ?
[07:56] <Dimitar> hey... i want to be a SHOUTcast DJ on ubuntu 7.04.. is there any progs. for doing this? Help, Please.
[07:57] <Pici> Evil_`: w3m is the name of one such terminal web browser
[07:57] <chief> Dimitar: Icecast is pretty nice
[07:57] <cappiz> some gutsy support chan?
[07:57] <dug> Evil_`: there are command line clients like elinks (web browsing) wget (fetch & download a url), etc.
 thanks
[07:57] <Evil_`> ah ok, thanks :o
[07:57] <realshiva> Dimitar, look for the programm muse
[07:57] <nickrud_> drock: did you leave the localhost on the line with the 127.0.0.1 ; mine is 127.0.0.1 localhost aias  ; /etc/hostname is aias  . Make sure you don't have a domain name added
[07:57] <rejoice> codeshah, normally its http://xxxx/exchange, but u can try it once
[07:57] <Dimitar> ok
[07:57] <Dimitar> tnx
[07:57] <rejoice> codeshah, hv 2 accounts with the above
[07:58] <drock> nickrud_:  yeah line is -->  127.0.0.1 localhost myhostname
[07:58] <MartinW> I've got a very old PC with 128mb RAM (It was top of the line ;-) ) which I plan to set up with Linux and donate to a school. This is the only computer the school is going to get so I won't need networking. Would edubuntu work (Preferably LTS) or should I go for xubuntu? Perhaps another flavor of linux? What would you reccomend?
[07:58] <nikom1> I'm liking Ubuntu... but why does GAIM use nikom1 as my name :/? I told it to use nikomo
[07:58] <nikom1> /name nikomo
[07:58] <alexbOrsova> nikom1: well from the screenshot I can see you don't have these settings 1440 x 900 @ 60Hz
[07:58] <nikom1> ...
[07:58] <dug> brand0con: just a guess but 2 things to check are your /boot/grub/menu.lst file (see that it doesn't refer to the second drive), and also go into your bios and turn off the secondary drive support
[07:58] <nickrud_> drock: and /etc/hostname is only hostname ?
[07:58] <nikom1> alex
[07:58] <nikom1> I took the picture when I was changing my resolution
[07:58] <drock> nickrud_:  true
[07:59] <alexbOrsova> nikom1: well then what does it look like when you're running those settings?
[07:59] <nikom1> I had it on 1440x900 when I took it
[07:59] <dudeicles> MartinW: Did you check the Ubuntu website for edubuntu specs?
[07:59] <nickrud_> drock: hm, that's the most common reason for gnome to be really slow starting apps, looking for something network wise ...
[07:59] <MartinW> I couldn't find them. I did search quite a bit.
[07:59] <nikom1> The ones I inputted? I'm currently on 1280x800 and it's perfect
[07:59] <drock> nickrud_:  I have some Samba shares in fstab.  could it be that?
[07:59] <dug> nikom1: someone else is using the name nikomo on freenode at the moment
[07:59] <nikom1> AH
[07:59] <nikom1> k
[08:00] <brand0con> dug: i already uncommented menu.lst to not include the irrelevant options (good guess tho thats what i thought of too).  ill try to disable the drive via bios.  i guess ill just keep my figers crossed that when the new drive comes it will seemlessly replace the one that its dependent on

[08:00] <drock> nickrud_: k, i'm gonna comment those out of fstab and restart. thanks
[08:00] <MartinW> Thanks
[08:00] <sauvin> Firestarter is just a front end to iptables, correct? This means that the firewall configured with firestarter is active the moment the computer wakes up, and not just when I get around to firing up firestarter, correct?
[08:00] <dudeicles> MartinW: Check this site out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToCookEdubuntu/Chapters/HardwareRequirements
[08:00] <Pici> sauvin: Yes.
[08:01] <alexbOrsova> nikom1: are the refresh rates correct? the ones listed on the product page are 55-75Hz vertical, 30-83kHz horizontal
[08:01] <sauvin> Where would there be a log of iptables activity?
[08:01] <joshritger> what do i need to playback mp3's with fiesty
[08:01] <dudeicles> XMMS is a nice program if you liked Winamp on Windows
[08:01] <sauvin> joshrigger, the list is pretty long; there are all KIND of things to play them.
[08:01] <dudeicles> joshritger:  ^^^^^
[08:01] <Gosha> Trying to enable twinview, how do I know what to set here? : Option    "SecondMonitorHorizSync" "31-82
[08:01] <cafeden> hi all
[08:01] <nikom1> alex, there's just 60Hz on the resolution selection screen nothing else
[08:01] <joshritger> sorry i mean what codecs do i need
[08:02] <dug> sauvin: yes, the first time you run firestarter, iptables is configured, and it remains with that configuration even when firestarter is not running
[08:02] <Flannel> joshritger: if you try and play an mp3, feisty should prompt you to install the codecs
[08:02] <MartinW> Thanks.
[08:02] <nikom1> Also, I asked a person on my favourite forums thru a PM
[08:02] <joshritger>  ok
[08:02] <alexbOrsova> nikom1: hold on a sec
[08:02] <nikom1> I got this answer: "It looks like a configuration problem with X or GTK. Try a different window manager, one that isn't GTK based, see if that changes it. If not, reset your xorg.conf."
[08:02] <neol> joshritger: mpeg* codec
[08:02] <sauvin> dug, I thank you. where would iptables keep a log?
[08:02] <dudeicles> joshritger: What do you men by codecs for mp3's?
[08:02] <joshritger> i can't remember what rhythmbox needs to play mp3's

[08:03] <dudeicles> lol that didn't help at all
[08:03] <Aval0n> I heard a rumor that it did somehow.
[08:03] <dudeicles> MrObvious: Thanks for pointing that out.
[08:03] <DarkAvenger> Hi, Im new to irc and ubuntu. Could someone help me with a networking/hardware problem?
[08:03] <dug> sauvin: just a guess.  actually i searched and it may be /var/log/messages or /var/log/dmesg

[08:04] <asil> hi to all
[08:04] <DF3_> Hi. Is there a way to install Ubuntu WITHOUT grub?
[08:04] <Flannel> Aval0n: Why would it do that?
[08:04] <nickrud_> sauvin: in /var/log/syslog , lines like Sep  3 21:38:05 aias kernel: [13984.772000]  Inbound IN=wlan0 OUT=
[08:04] <Flannel> DF3_: you need the alternate CD
[08:04] <nikom1> Yeah. Some other boot handler :D
[08:04] <asil> have a c compiler with gnu
[08:04] <MrObvious> Gosha: Oops. It's in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and you can read the file and find the answer.
[08:04] <DF3_> No way with the original cd?
[08:04] <asil> ubuntu
[08:04] <DF3_> Desktop cd?
[08:05] <zachary> !flash
[08:05] <dug> Gosha: you'll need to google for your monitor's model number and find the resolution and refresh rate, or look in any .inf files included on the install cd with the monitor
[08:05] <ubotu> 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
[08:05] <markelhas> MrObvious, yes , problem solved thnks
[08:05] <Flannel> DF3_: Desktop CD provides very few options, no.
[08:05] <MrObvious> markelhas: Great.
[08:05] <MrObvious> markelhas: What did you do?
[08:05] <Aval0n> does ubuntu feisty let you map to windows share without samba installed?
[08:05] <drock> nickrud_:  yeah, that samba entry in fstab was clogging up the works
[08:05] <MrObvious> !lilo
[08:05] <ubotu> lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[08:05] <DF3_> Flannel: So Can I overwrite it with lilo later? because when I did that, grub still loaded
[08:05] <asil> i need c compiler with ubuntu
[08:05] <MrObvious> :\
[08:05] <asil> have any
[08:05] <nickrud_> drock: cool, I'll add it to my list ;)
[08:05] <asil> you knw
[08:05] <Flannel> DF3_: sure, I don't see why not
[08:05] <alexbOrsova> nikom1: you know, you used to have more options when setting monitor settings. I haven't had to mess with those settings for a while though
[08:06] <MrObvious> DF3_: What do you need Lilo for?
[08:06] <DF3_> MrObvious: grub gives me problems
[08:06] <alexbOrsova> nikom1: there used to be a monitor option in System -> Administration
[08:06] <MrObvious> DF3_: Like?............
[08:06] <markelhas> MrObvious, i've create a laucher in the desktop with gnome-panel and execute
[08:06] <DarkAvenger> Ok, well my onboard internet, which was working when i installed Ubuntu, wont work anymore. Its really weird, it wont even connect to the router. Im using the same machine with a different added card.
[08:06] <DF3_> MrObvious: Not loading, and now it says "no image called "linux" found"
[08:06] <drock> nickrud_: now to find a way to use a samba share as my music library in Exaile
[08:06] <dug> asil: in terminal run: sudo apt-get install build-essential   You may also need to install the linux-headers for your kernel to build some projects
[08:06] <Flannel> Aval0n: No.  Samba is the protocol.  That's like asking if you can ... uh, play music without speakers.
[08:06] <drock> nickrud_: thanks!
[08:06] <MrObvious> DF3_: Hmm. Have you tried reinstalling Grub?
[08:06] <DF3_> MrObvious: Last time it got stuck at Loading, Please wait..
[08:07] <DF3_> MrObvious: Back then? Yep.
[08:07] <alexbOrsova> nikom1: I'll keep looking but I think those are the only options available now
[08:07] <asil> hi
[08:07] <MrObvious> Hmm.
[08:07] <nickrud_> drock: I'd suggest wrapping the exaile command in a script that mounts & unmounts the shares only when it's running
[08:07] <codeshah> rejoice, thanks - any issues i should know about btw compared to outlook
[08:07] <markelhas> MrObvious, i tryin to install avant-window-navigator do u know the repository for it!?
[08:07] <MrObvious> DF3_: Grub usually works so that's odd. Have you posted on the forums?
[08:07] <nickrud_> drock: and, obviously, already present
[08:07] <MrObvious> !info avant-window-navigator
[08:07] <DF3_> MrObvius, No.
[08:07] <ubotu> Package avant-window-navigator does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:07] <drock> nickrud_: k, ill explore
[08:08] <MrObvious> DF3_: ubuntuforums.org Try posting under Install problems.
[08:08] <nikom1> alex, I'm running apt-get xorg-driver-fglrx atm and try sudo aticonfig after installation
[08:08] <drock> nickrud_:  any other media players that can use samba shares as libraries
[08:08] <MrObvious> Or using search.
[08:08] <Flannel> markelhas: Avant has its own repository, http://awn.wetpaint.com/page/Ubuntu+Feisty+Repository?t=anon
[08:08] <n00dl3> DF3_: It may not be pointing to the right drive to load linux from. Ive seen this happen before.
[08:08] <MrObvious> Flannel: Thanks for the help there.
[08:08] <asil> is there anyone who can send me a compiler which cempile c code
[08:08] <DF3_> MrObvious, Forget grab, I just want lilo. but now I have two other problems. First, "no image called... blah blah" and the other is I suspect grub is loading before lilo even though lilo overwritten the MBR
[08:08] <nikom1> Someone used !resolution which helped me a bit :D
[08:08] <alexbOrsova> nikom1: go for it

[08:19] <yotam> nickrud_: I hoped it would be that simple. is there a free web server that I can use for this?
[08:19] <bruenig> Ashfire908, it creates a bzipped tape archive

[08:20] <Desolato1> I got a question about partitioning. If I partition using XP's setup disk it always leaves 8 MB free space, Should I leave 8 MB when partition using Ubuntu's partitioner or can I use up every bit?
[08:20] <bruenig> Ashfire908, a bzipped tarball maybe that makes more sense
[08:20] <nickrud_> yotam: you could check out the ones at http://www.submitside.com/free_storage.html
[08:20] <dug> foug_: mtasc might be the right name i meant, not flasc :) see tutorials here: http://www.mtasc.org/#download
[08:20] <yotam> I tried using opensvn but I just didn't manage to understand the svn thingy
[08:20] <Ashfire908> Flannel i saw
[08:21] <Flannel> Desolato1: You don't need to leave 8mb, no.  Your disk geometry might make that 8mb stick out though.
[08:21] <foug_> dug: awesome thanks man
[08:21] <Desolato1> I guess I'll leave it to be safe. * MB isn't that much anyway

[08:36] <Gecko> Hey there. How would you guys recommend migrating a complete file system from one disk to another?
[08:36] <pvl1> my live cd doesnt do recovery
[08:36] <marginoferror> nickrud_: As far as I can tell, zero.  But I don't know where to look other than the man page
[08:36] <bruenig> Gecko, dd
[08:36] <CyberCod> is there any way to make a temporary "repository" from another computer on the LAN so I don't have to wait for all the packages to download slowly from the repos?
[08:36] <Gecko> bruenig: the disks aren't of the same size...
[08:36] <nickrud_> marginoferror: I was just there myself, no luck. I don't know where the canonical source comes from ...
[08:36] <bruenig> Gecko, does that matter?
[08:36] <Flannel> Gecko: find and cpio, like the debian manual recommends.  http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/
[08:36] <Gecko> bruenig: also, I want to be able to exclue certain dirs like /dev and /home
[08:37] <Flannel> Gecko: except, don't move just your home, move your whole thing.
[08:37] <bruenig> Gecko, you could tar it all up perhaps
[08:37] <dug> pvl1: you can boot up to the ubuntu cd, then edit files on your main hard drive, or run fsck to repair a drive, or gparted to format/partition, etc.
[08:37] <Gecko> bruenig: I think I'll stick to Flannels guide.... Taring seems like a waste of time
[08:37] <Chousuke> CyberCod: you can copy the other machine's /var/cache/apt/ to the target machine
[08:37] <nickrud_> CyberCod: yes, look here for various options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories
[08:38] <Arcad3z> hi.i've addes ubuntustudio repos
[08:38] <marginoferror> nickrud_: Okay, thanks anyways.

[08:38] <nickrud_> marginoferror: my language of choice is simple ;)
[08:38] <tarsier> Anybody ever have issues with Flash not having sound in Firefox?
[08:38] <CyberCod> cool... I'm hoping to make a repo because I don't want to copy ALL the packages across, just the ones that are part of the normal update
[08:38] <Arcad3z> if i install ubuntu studio on ubuntu will break my ubuntu?
[08:39] <Flannel> Arcad3z: It shouldnt.  You might ask in #ubuntustudio to double check there aren't any migration issues.  They'll know
[08:39] <Gecko> Flannel: thanks for the guide. It's a bit more messy than I thought (no --exclude option to find), so I have to go to single user mode and unmount everything but / to do it I think...
[08:39] <CyberCod> Arcad3z, nope, I started with ubuntu, then added the ubuntustudio repository and installed the Ubuntu-Studio-desktop package
[08:39] <kronos> anyone?
[08:39] <CyberCod> works just fine
[08:39] <nickrud_> CyberCod: you might find apt-proxy useful then
[08:40] <MrObvious> kronos: What's your question?
[08:40] <BBking> dudeicles: ?
[08:40] <CyberCod> apt proxy?  will check it out
[08:40] <Flannel> Gecko: LiveCD would work better.
[08:40] <Gecko> Flannel: not really. I can do both fine
[08:40] <MrObvious> BBking: Did you get that one thing working yet?
[08:40] <kronos> MrObvious: I need help on a system with postfix & maildrop with virtual mailboxes? I can't figure out how to make maildrop to drop maildirsize and deliver messages in mailbox instead of /home/vmail/Maildir file
[08:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Does persistent mode work in Feisty?  I know it does in Dapper..
[08:40] <CyberCod> what about making a DVD full of .debs ?   would that be workable?
[08:40] <Flannel> Gecko: You could --exclude, you can modify the find however you want.  That's just the basics on moving home (and presumably your whole home)
[08:40] <joe__> why cant my desktop effects be enabled?
[08:40] <soothsayer> nickrud_: Why is apt-proxy better than approx?
[08:41] <MrObvious> kronos: Try #postfix?
[08:41] <HAL9090> does ubuntu studio have the same capabilities as ubuntu, also?
[08:41] <Flannel> Gecko: just, the find/cpio option is the best method
[08:41] <HAL9090> er...
[08:41] <nickrud_> soothsayer: cuz I've I've used it? ;)
[08:41] <dug> Jack_Sparrow: not according to pendrivelinux.com  You need to use dapper, or else another distro like damnsmalllinux or slax
[08:41] <kronos> MrObvious: ok
[08:41] <shwouchk> please help! I can't setup an lvm logical volume... heres the error I get: http://rafb.net/p/qbbCFq63.html
[08:41] <Gecko> Flannel: actually, the smart thing is to use find -mount so it doesn't move over other mount points, which I just what I need...
[08:41] <Jack_Sparrow> dug: thanks, I have working Dapper setup
[08:41] <CyberCod> HAL9090: yup, its the same system, just with some extra window dressing, and some premade packages for media creation
[08:41] <dudeicles> BBking: ?
[08:41] <Flannel> Gecko: Ah, I understand what you're doing.
[08:41] <HAL9090> thnx

[08:46] <medfly> kwafo1, youll have to use english in here.
[08:46] <soothsayer> Gosha: I assume /etc/init.d/apached stop
[08:46] <MrObvious> kwafo1: If you're gonna just flood pointless characters go somewhere else. If you have an Ubuntu question then you can stay.

[08:49] <KevinOman> thanks
[08:49] <kane77> chief, I just discovered the ctrlproxy, but then I would need some irc proxy...

[08:50] <goundy> oh Pici yeah thanks :)
[08:50] <medfly> dudeicles, cd ~/Desktop
[08:50] <dudeicles> I type 'cd /home/dudeicles/desktop/
[08:50] <MrObvious> neol: Try http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=irc+proxy&btnG=Google+Search
[08:51] <dudeicles> medfly: Is it that easy?
[08:51] <dudeicles> LOL
[08:51] <medfly> dudeicles, you need to use a capital letter
[08:51] <scguy318> dudeicles: capital D, Linux is case sensitive
[08:51] <MrObvious> !away > mro
[08:51] <kane77> neol, dunno.. but it is quite hady if you want to stay connected (for example on my laptop).. I just reconnect.. and dircproxy/ctrlproxy fetches the stuff I missed...
[08:51] <MrObvious> !away > MrObvious
[08:51] <neol> MrObvious: i already tried that.
[08:51] <dudeicles> ah
[08:51] <clintfish> greetings can someone help me with a problem by compiling gimp 2.4?
[08:51] <winbond> is there a gui ftp client in ubuntu?
[08:51] <neol> MrObvious: u devil :)
[08:51] <Flannel> winbond: Places > Connect to Server
[08:51] <kane77> winbond, gftp
[08:51] <Digital_P> Hey, where is include/linux/config.h????
[08:52] <medfly> winbond, sudo apt-cache search gui ftp gives me results..
[08:52] <dudeicles> Desktop is capitalized
[08:52] <dudeicles> lol
[08:52] <MrObvious> neol: I'm not sure this is the right channel for that. There is a ##freenode I believe the channel is.
[08:52] <Pici> Digital_P: /usr/include/linux/
[08:52] <Digital_P> I'm trying to compile something and it's failing because there's no config.h!!! I've searched all over the system.
[08:52] <kane77> winbond, kftpgrabber, kasablanca
[08:52] <Digital_P> Pici: Already checked, not there.
[08:52] <Digital_P> I installed my kernel headers.
[08:53] <medfly> Digital_P, did you use ./configure?
[08:53] <Xyhthyx> Digital_P: Do you have the build essentials?
[08:53] <mindframe-> if i currently have / /usr /var /home /boot and /tmp mounted on separate partitions, will it hurt anything if i change /etc/fstab to mount everything to / and reboot?
[08:53] <neol> MrObvious: but those proxies dont work,
[08:53] <nikomo> Haha, Ubuntu thinks my broken MP3 player that I use as a memory stick now is a MUVO
[08:53] <adithveeres2> can we install NCTUNS networking software
[08:53] <nickrud_> mindframe-: yes
[08:53] <dug> Digital_P: do you have the kernel headers for your current kernel though?  sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[08:53] <nikomo> Doesn't matter, still works perfectly
[08:53] <neol> MrObvious: dont know y.
[08:53] <mindframe-> nickrud_, should i leave /boot alone?
[08:53] <adithveeres2> which version of nctuns
[08:53] <dudeicles> has anyone here ever used Aurora Gtk Engine?
[08:53] <spanks> any1 know how to do a dual boot setup with xp and ubuntu when they are both already installed (seperate disks)
[08:54] <KevinOman> MrObvios that link doesn't work for me
[08:54] <nickrud_> mindframe-: if you have created those as separate partitions and installed stuff on them, you need to mount them to the same point.
[08:54] <medfly> spanks, if you installed ubuntu after windows, youll get grub working. if not, you can just install it
[08:54] <shwouchk> Flannel: saw it?
[08:54] <shwouchk> Flannel: sorry, for the delay - I installed pastebinit but didn't remember then name of the app in ubuntu
[08:54] <mindframe-> so i need to copy the files over first
[08:54] <Digital_P> Xyhthyx: Probably not...
[08:55] <KevinOman> anyone know how to reset mysql password?
[08:55] <Gosha> ...
[08:55] <nickrud_> mindframe-: you could back up the entire system (beyond what I can walk you through here) and reformat your hard disk to a single partition for / , and restore.
[08:55] <winbond> does filezilla run good on ubuntu?
[08:55] <Gosha> how do I create a directory? OTZ .. in the terminal
[08:55] <Troy23> any1 know how to get gnome to work with ubuntu server???
[08:55] <spanks> medfly: i installed ubuntu after windows, but quite honestly i dont understand instructions which i have read to get it to work
[08:55] <Xyhthyx> Digital_P: sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[08:55] <neol> spanks: u better reisntall grub.
[08:55] <medfly> Troy23, just getting it using the package system doesnt work?

[08:56] <nikomo> ubotu doesn't know mkdir?
[08:56] <dudeicles> guess not. lol
[08:56] <nikomo> makedir hurr
[08:56] <nickrud_> mindframe-: it's doable, but I'd have to think hard about the steps I'd take. Not something I do every day :)

[08:57] <asil> what type of software used in ubuntu when it developed can you explain
[08:57] <user12345> I'm having problems booting the liveCD of Feisty, theres a bunch of failures with the hard drives (lots of ataX: GH Error, IDENTIFY error...) but I am able to boot with dapper, I saw something on a forum about using the UUIDs from fstab to get around the problem, does anyone know how to do that?
[08:57] <asil>  im ay happy with you
[08:57] <asil> ok
[08:57] <hehehe> apa-apaan dong
[08:57] <Pici> dudeicles: What are you looking for?
[08:57] <dug> winbond: in ubuntu, go to Places menu, then "connect to server", enter info, and it should mount on desktop.  you can double click to go in
[08:57] <nikomo> 180mb worth of updates to install... ARGH
[08:57] <logan_> How do I set up my other ubuntu computer that is connected to a printer to accept a connection to print from this computer?
[08:58] <nikomo> I'm gonna visit the bathroom, excuse me D:
[08:58] <hehehe> wahat are you doing
[08:58] <flush> wtf is this
[08:58] <flush> some partition is owned by group "plugdev" and hell, as root i "do not have the permission to change owner of that group"
[08:58] <flush> wtf??
[08:58] <dudeicles> Pici: just wondering why ubotu didn't know what mkdir was
[08:58] <logan_> What networked printer protocol should I be using
[08:58] <MrObvious> user12345: The easy solution is you downoaded a bad ISO or a bad burn of a CD.
[08:58] <dudeicles> Pici: Thought maybe i mispelled it.
[08:58] <hehehe> what are you visit the bathroom
[08:58] <yotam> isn't any other way apart from SVN to mount a folder over the internet?
[08:59] <Pici> dudeicles: Because each of those entries are manually added, and we have no reason to add every single command.
[08:59] <MrObvious> yotam: What kind of folder?
[08:59] <nickrud_> flush: lsattr on the root of the partition, maybe that's set
[08:59] <rambo3> cvs ?
[08:59] <rambo3> ftp
[08:59] <Xyhthyx> yotam: SVN is not really mounting a folder, but yes.
[08:59] <hehehe> yotAM : are yoy doing
[08:59] <user12345> obvious: checked the CD and tried the alernate CD, no joy, same error
[08:59] <Xyhthyx> yotam: There's CVS, SVN, Bazzar and git.
[08:59] <radioman_> how to surf on web when downloading torrent via bitswash, i can't load any page?
[08:59] <magicrob1tmonkey> hey, im looking for a lightweight alternative to mythvideo. Anyone know of anything good?
[08:59] <MrObvious> yotam: Do you mean downloading directories, etc.? Or what esactly?
[08:59] <dudeicles> Pici: I unerstand. just wonderging.
[08:59] <flush> nickrud_  i do "lsattr /media/sda5" ?
[08:59] <logan_> What networked printer protocol should I be using to connect two ubuntu computers?
[09:00] <Pici> yotam: Are you looking for a versioning system?
[09:00] <dug> radioman_: sounds like it might be using up all your bandwidth
[09:00] <rambo3> magicrob1tmonkey,  dod you try freevo
[09:00] <yotam> I want to make a folder on my machine that will be synchronized over the Internet with other location. I won't have other machine to do it so I thought about FTP or svn but I just can't find anything about it
[09:00] <howlingmadhowie> logan_: i think you mean cups (port 631)
[09:00] <yotam> Xyhthyx: what are bazzar and git?
[09:00] <rambo3> magicrob1tmonkey,  also elisa
[09:00] <dug> magicrobotmonkey: the VLC player can play any video format
[09:00] <Xyhthyx> yotam: SVN is a version control system. I think FTP will better suit your needs.
[09:00] <faileas> yotam: rsync?
[09:01] <logan_> Yes, what do I have to do on my other computer to listen/accept CUPS connections
[09:01] <logan_> and how do I get the URI
[09:01] <Pici> yotam: bazaar, git, svn and cvs are all version control systems.
[09:01] <MrObvious> yotam: FTP would be better IMO.
[09:01] <mindframe-> nickrud_, what if i cp -R / to /home, which is currenty /dev/hda8, and set /dev/hda8 to mount at / ???
[09:01] <MrObvious> !ftpd

[09:01] <nickrud_> flush: no, where the partition is mounted , like /media/whatever ; but this is just a stab in the dark, I'm not sure how plugdev works
[09:01] <MrObvious> !proftpd
[09:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about proftpd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:01] <MrObvious> :\
[09:01] <yotam> only I need a public location for ftp
[09:01] <flush> nickrud_ i never head of plugdev before today actually..
[09:01] <MrObvious> yotam: Get a no-ip, download the DUC, port forward ports 20 and 21 on your router and set up ProFTPD.
[09:01] <MrObvious> www.no-ip.com
[09:02] <__ZiGgy__> QUSTION Who can tell me how to hook up the MAP Harddrives on my XP Computer to my Linux one???
[09:02] <nickrud_> mindframe-: that's a possibility, I'd think carefully about the flags I gave to cp. I don't use the more arcane ones often enough

[09:02] <Gm4n> !sarge -> etch
[09:02] <mindframe-> k, yeah i should probably tell it to keep permissions
[09:02] <Gm4n> whoops, wrong window. my bad.
[09:02] <nickrud_> flush: it's part of the automounting system. I take it on faith right now
[09:02] <MrObvious> yotam: A no-ip is a DNS service so you can download the stuff.
[09:02] <MrObvious> yotam: I'll bbl.
[09:03] <Xyhthyx> yotam: I think what you want is a place to host your files?

[09:03] <yotam> Xyhthyx: yes. but I want it to be at synch with folders on my machine
[09:03] <nickrud_> mindframe-: but you definitely should be talking to someone who does a lot of system admin, not me :)

[09:04] <shwouchk> please help! I can't setup an lvm logical volume... heres the error I get: http://rafb.net/p/qbbCFq63.html
[09:04] <nickrud_> chief: des gnash work on ppc?
[09:05] <Xyhthyx> yotam: Set up your own FTP, but something tells me you can't/don't want to have a computer hosting at home.
[09:05] <zachary> I don't think so... I tried gnash
[09:05] <chief> nickrud_: i'm not sure, I've never used the PPC architecture
[09:05] <_gpg_> i've some fonts problems, some of my applications are running using monospace-9 makeing text unreadable, i didnt change this mysef and dunno how it happened !
[09:06] <yotam> no, the whole Idea is for my computer to be backed up over the web. and my data to be acceessed regardless of my home computer situation
[09:06] <yotam> I admit that no IP is better then nuthing tho
[09:06] <mindframe-> nickrud_, gonna try this out in a vm before i do it on the real thing :)
[09:06] <nickrud_> mindframe-: wise idea :)
[09:06] <_gpg_> i would like to use annother font applied to all my application but donnu how (system -> pref -> fonts are already set to Sans-10)
[09:06] <yotam> Xyhthyx:  no, the whole Idea is for my computer to be backed up over the web. and my data to be acceessed regardless of my home computer situation
[09:06] <Xyhthyx> yotam: Probably not going to find many free solutions to that.

[09:07] <rambo3> _gpg_, what do you mean

[09:08] <splitfish> I'm attempting to create a modular Ubuntu setup on my flash drive, installation goes smoothly and my only problem thus far is the booting/installation of a bootloader. (I don't wish to affect the MBR permanently on the host's computer.) Any advice is appreciated, thanks in advance.
[09:08] <scguy318> nickrud_: i tested latest 0.8.1, YouTube doesnt seem to work 4 me
[09:08] <scguy318> splitfish: install GRUB to the flash device?
[09:08] <MrDeadLock> How do i open port 22 on my ubuntu server?
[09:08] <rambo3> splitfish, did you read !install
[09:08] <nickrud_> scguy318: good to know, I see it's claiming it
[09:08] <tatters> anyone used unison to sync koffice data between laptop and desktop?
[09:08] <Xyhthyx> yotam: All I can suggest is to upload stuff to a filefront accout, or similar service.
[09:09] <zachary> I'm pretty sure I tried gnash... ty though
[09:09] <scguy318> nickrud_: well, I know YouTube has made changes, but yeah
[09:09] <chief> I did get Gnash to play YouTube, but no audio and playback was kinda choppy
[09:09] <MrDeadLock> sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT, DOes this look correct?
[09:09] <splitfish> scguy318: I've tried specifying (sda) for the installation of GRUB but I get a fatal error everytime

[09:16] <i3luefire> is there a way to fix my MBR by making it like it was pre-linux?
[09:16] <Fxyz4ever> when i open a program, its icon doesn't appear in the trayicon, what happened?
[09:16] <awacs> i3luefire: yep, boot your xp cd and go into recovery console then at the prompt type fixmbr - google it and you'll get in-depth instructions

[09:18] <__ZiGgy__> having problems with video grahics and videos playing on Ubuntu anysuggestions on fixxing my problems
[09:18] <rambo3> __ZiGgy__, you xv overlay
[09:18] <chief> zachary: sudo apt-get install gnash mozilla-plugin-gnash
[09:18] <__ZiGgy__> Wtf is Xv Overlay bro ??
[09:19] <chief> !gnash | zachary see this too
[09:19] <ubotu> zachary see this too: An open source flash replacement.  It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/
[09:19] <lumi> hello
[09:21] <_Bart_> I have a problem when I shutdown I only see black screen and hear some system beeps
[09:21] <_Bart_> and it doesn' t shutdown
[09:22] <medfly> _Bart_, shutdown -h now ?:P
[09:23] <_Bart_> medfly: yes that works :S
[09:23] <_Bart_> medfly: How can I fix the normal shutdown??
[09:23] <celador> Hello. I can't seem to get any sound on my Ubuntu Feisty installation?
[09:24] <Disorganized> hey peeps, here's an odd one for you. I'm looking for an app that can take a wav file, and compare it with another wav file, to see if the voice is the same. I'm trying to build a voice recognition password system for a website
[09:24] <celador> what should I do?
[09:24] <zachary> gnash definately isn't working.. it just creats a flashing box in firefox
[09:24] <nikomo> :( I don't like how I can only use one apt-get at a time, I'm downloading 160mb worth of updates so I can't get my ethernet-share thru wifi working
[09:25] <Pici> nikomo: Huh? I'm not sure what you think running two would do.
[09:25] <chief> zachary: well, it's still beta software
[09:25] <year0369> join #ubuntu-de
[09:25] <nikomo> Pici, mayby some conflicts?
[09:25] <Pici> nikomo: Yes.
[09:25] <nikomo> I can't understand why tho
[09:26] <ulisse> 'lo guys
[09:26] <Pici> nikomo: Thats just the way dpkg is designed.
[09:26] <nikomo> meh
[09:26] <Xyhthyx> nikomo: You can only use one package manager at a time, but you can still install many packages at a time.
[09:26] <_Bart_> Someone knows how to fix the shutdown problem?
[09:26] <MrObvious> yotam: Did you get it working?
[09:26] <Fxyz4ever> when i open a program, its icon doesn't appear on tray icon, why?
[09:26] <yotam> no.
[09:26] <nikomo> meh, only 26mins left on update downloads
[09:27] <yotam> I just can't understan the idea of that svn
[09:27] <MrObvious> yotam: Okay sorry I had to leave like that.
[09:27] <yotam> that's ok
[09:27] <nikomo> SVNs = awesome
[09:27] <Pici> d4rkmonkey: You might want to search on freshmeat or sourceforge, that is very specialized software.
[09:27] <d4rkmonkey> Pici what?
[09:27] <Pici> d4rkmonkey: Sorry, wrong person.
[09:27] <d4rkmonkey> Pici lol, its ok
[09:27] <Pici> Disorganized: You might want to search on freshmeat or sourceforge, that is very specialized software.
[09:28] <Xyhthyx> yotam: SVN is a version control system. http://subversion.tigris.org/
[09:28] <yotam> what I need is to update  a folder on my machine with a folder over the web.
[09:28] <Disorganized> Pici, ya it is
[09:28] <yotam> Xyhthyx: yeah, that far I got
[09:28] <yotam> Xyhthyx: yeah, that far I got
[09:28] <Disorganized> i'm not even sure how reasonable the idea is
[09:28] <upgrdman> im unable to get to a gui or a cli on my ubuntu install, so i booted the alternate cd and chose rescue and got a shell. so i typed in bash, and they i typed in dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but im getting an error about "unknown terminal bterm"
[09:28] <yotam> Xyhthyx: but I don't understand why it won't work
[09:28] <everamzah> w00t
[09:28] <MrObvious> yotam: Okay what I"m talking about is making your computer a FTP server.
[09:29] <yotam> Xyhthyx: do you know about any svn service for non programers?
[09:29] <SeveredCross> Will a rescue shell get you to a shell on the installed system>
[09:29] <slipmaster> I installed a PCI card with serial ports so I can connect to a com port for cisco router config.  I cannot get com1 or com2 with gtkterm.  Is there something I need to do to the ttyS ports to make this work?
[09:29] <Pici> Disorganized: I'll be honest, I think its a very ambitious idea and probably will be very hard to get it to work properly.
[09:29] <SeveredCross> *installed system
[09:29] <upgrdman> SeveredCross, ues
[09:29] <Disorganized> well, that's what i'm thinking too
[09:29] <upgrdman> yes
[09:29] <Xyhthyx> yotam: No, because SVN is for programmers ;p
[09:29] <winbond> how can i enable copy/paste in vmware between host and guest os?
[09:29] <SeveredCross> Okay. Wasn't sure.
[09:29] <zachary> how do I force quit?
[09:29] <zachary> an app
[09:29] <SeveredCross> winbond: That needs VMware Tools installed in the Guest.
[09:29] <yotam> MrObvious: yeah I understood after reading a lil about no-ip but it isn't good anough for me
[09:29] <SeveredCross> zachary: Alt-F2, type in xkill
[09:29] <MrObvious> !kill | zachary
[09:29] <SeveredCross> Then point the skull to the app you wanna kill, and click.
[09:30] <yotam> I need it also for backup, I tend to mess around to much with my machine
[09:30] <ubotu> zachary: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[09:30] <Poul^Laptop> I just installed ubuntu from the live cd. having a nvidia 8800 card, what is the next step to config the grafic properly?
[09:30] <upgrdman> SeveredCross, any idea why its freaking out about bterm when im in bash?
[09:30] <MrObvious> yotam: So a FTP server won't work? I would think it would.
[09:30] <winbond> SeveredCross, i got it installed, but copy./pase doesnt work
[09:30] <niaGirl> hi, i am having a problem getting my desktop to connect to the internet.  when connected directly to the modem, it states it is connected and yet doesn't give me access to the internet.  I have an 82562ez 10/100 ethernet controller (rev 02)
[09:30] <Disorganized> the basic idea, is that since flash has access to the system microphone. use flash to record the user saying a phrase. then save that file into a tmp file on the box. then execute a process to compare that file with another wav file, if they match, return status 1, if not return status 2
[09:30] <MrObvious> zachary: Read that last link ubotu posted about the terminal, specifically the killing part.
[09:30] <SeveredCross> upgrdman: Might be something related to the way dpkg-reconfigure works..Why not just edit xorg.conf by hand?
[09:30] <frojnd> hello
[09:30] <frojnd> does anyone know any program that can make DVDrip ? and also destroy security of dvd ?
[09:30] <niaGirl> i am running feisty
[09:30] <Disorganized> maybe i should be on rentacoder hehe
[09:30] <SeveredCross> winbond: You might be missing a setting somewhere.
[09:31] <MrObvious> yotam: As long as you were to have a decent connection on the computer you need to share from then you would be okay.
[09:31] <howlingmadhowie> frojnd: do you mean the program called dvdrip, or a program for ripping video dvds?
[09:31] <yotam> MrObvious: ftp would be good but only if it runs on an online machine. I could leave my machine at the uni running constantly but then I won't get back up for it
[09:31] <MrObvious> yotam: G2g again ;\
[09:31] <yotam> g2g?
[09:31] <zachary> nice that worked... I'm having problems playing an avi on the server with VLC
[09:31] <yotam> sorry
[09:31] <upgrdman> SeveredCross, well heres the thing. i have a new nvidia 8800 which is known for being difficult to use in ubuntu/linux because you have to use the propreitary drivers to get it to work. I cant even see the gui startup or x.... and ctrl-alt-f1 or f2 dont bring me to a cli
[09:32] <SeveredCross> upgrdman: You should be able to boot into recovery mode.
[09:32] <SeveredCross> or wait for X to crash.
[09:32] <SeveredCross> Then get to a terminal when X crashes.
[09:32] <yotam> Xyhthyx: so isn't there a decent way to mount a web folder on my machine?
[09:32] <rambo3> niaGirl, did you try restarting modem or using other internet apps
[09:32] <upgrdman> SeveredCross, hum... is recovery mode one of the choices in grub?
[09:32] <SeveredCross> Yes upgrdman.
[09:32] <SeveredCross> There's some choice that should be something like recovery mode or something
[09:32] <niaGirl> well, i only tried getting on google
[09:33] <niaGirl> that's when i realized it wasn't working
[09:33] <Xyhthyx> yotam: Yes, but like I said, if you host it yourself.
[09:33] <SeveredCross> Yeah, there should be a recovery mode option.
[09:33] <Arcad3z> how can i restart some services using init and not ruin my uptime ?
[09:33] <SeveredCross> Arcad3z: sudo /etc/init.d/service-name restart
[09:33] <niaGirl> the ubuntu forums states that this controller is only auto configured in edgy but i'm hoping i can continue to use feisty
[09:33] <Arcad3z> some kind of sistem restart
[09:34] <Arcad3z> but not to ruin my uptime
[09:34] <Arcad3z> init 0?
[09:34] <SeveredCross> No!
[09:34] <frojnd> howlingmadhowie, a program for ripping DVDs
[09:34] <retour> Does USB and PS2 keyboards use different hardware ports ?
[09:34] <SeveredCross> I just told you Arcad3z.
[09:34] <rambo3> !modems | niaGirl,
[09:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about modems - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:34] <kitche> Arcad3z, a system restart will kill your uptime
[09:34] <SeveredCross> sudo /etc/init.d/service-name restart
[09:34] <yotam> Xyhthyx: that's not that good, still I'll be needing to back a machine by hand
[09:34] <Arcad3z> yes
[09:34] <SeveredCross> If you wanna restart Apache, sudo /etc/init.d/apache restaart
[09:34] <poornapraveen> Hey all! i recently deleted my ubuntu partition from windows and i am having issues with the grub now... it cant boot up my laptop since linux was the default . can anyone help me?
[09:34] <niaGirl> i'm sorry?
[09:34] <Gosha> http://cookie.hopto.org/hehu4.png <-- Using lighttpd, how do make it avaliable for other people? Chaning on the picture itself?
[09:34] <Arcad3z> i want something similar
[09:34] <Gosha> +g
[09:34] <rambo3> niaGirl, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Modems
[09:34] <Arcad3z> init 0 does the job?
[09:34] <SeveredCross> poornapraveen: Press Escape when oyu first see Grub loading.
[09:34] <Arcad3z> the to go back to init 3
[09:34] <SeveredCross> Arcad3z: Um...init 0 kills everything.
[09:34] <kitche> Arcad3z, init 0 is the samething as shutting down your pc
[09:34] <shizzo> hi all, i want to start cfdisk on my /dev/sda but there is an message: Bad logical partition 9: enlarged logical partitions overlap... what can i do?
[09:35] <rambo3> niaGirl, is it telephone or broadband modem ?
[09:35] <SeveredCross> Arcad3z: Honestly, that's a STUPID way to do it.
[09:35] <SeveredCross> Use the scripts in init.d
[09:35] <Arcad3z> init 1
[09:35] <SeveredCross> That's what they're bloody there for.
[09:35] <Arcad3z> ?
[09:35] <SeveredCross> Unless you wanna restart syslogd or something
[09:35] <SeveredCross> What are you trying to restart?
[09:35] <Xyhthyx> yotam: That's what most people do. Burn backups and keep backup documents in usb drives.
[09:35] <Arcad3z> i updated to ubuntustudio
[09:35] <Arcad3z> and needs restart
[09:35] <user12345> im trying to use break=top as an option to the install and it appears to break before the keyboard works, is there something else I can tell break? like break=middle?
[09:35] <Arcad3z> i have 200 Clients ...
[09:35] <yotam> yeah, only I know I loose them.
[09:36] <awacs> Poul^Laptop: There should be a "Restricted Drivers Manager" running on the taskbar. Open it up and it should give you the option to choose the driver for your card. Try: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[09:36] <SeveredCross> Um, that's gonna be a restart for a newer/different kernel.
[09:36] <SeveredCross> I believe anyway.
[09:36] <Arcad3z> yes ..
[09:36] <Gosha> Why do I get a 403 - Forbidden on all my web-servers? ( nginx  & lighttpd ) the index.html is fine however, why is this?
[09:36] <SeveredCross> I think Ubuntu Studio uses -lowlatency
[09:36] <zachary> I right click on the avi, but it doesn't give me option to open with VLC
[09:36] <SeveredCross> Then you have to reboot your whole PC.
[09:36] <SeveredCross> You can't boot into a new kernel without a full reboot,.
[09:36] <splitfish> Thanks for the help everyone.
[09:36] <yotam> let's say that I have a windows machine that would be constantly online. can I turn it into an ftp server?
[09:36] <Arcad3z> ok ...
[09:36] <poornapraveen> Hey Servedcross, esc doesnt seem to help. the screen reads GRUB loading stage1.5. says please wait and then its Error 17
[09:36] <Arcad3z> i will reboot
[09:36] <radioman_> ..hmm, i close all torent, but still i cant accees any web page ;/, whats that?
[09:36] <howlingmadhowie> zachary: then select "open with" and enter "/usr/bin/vlc" as the program to open the file with
[09:37] <Xyhthyx> yotam: Yes, and you can set it up to securely access it from anywhere.
[09:37] <niaGirl> rombo, i looked throught that information but the link for tested modems doesn't lead anywhere
[09:37] <sven_oostenbrink>  Hi there, I am having some problem with apt-get update, and there was this very quick but complex solution for it, one of the bots could tell me with the right command.. anybody knows what I am talking about?
[09:37] <SeveredCross> poornapraveen: Bizarre...
[09:37] <SeveredCross> poornapraveen: Got a Windows CD?
[09:37] <yotam> is there a web guide for this?
[09:37] <sven_oostenbrink> given error by apt-get is ""The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened
[09:37] <poornapraveen> yeh i do
[09:37] <Gosha> !403
[09:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 403 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:37] <SeveredCross> You're gonna need to boot from it, then get to a recovery console when it gives you the option (you'll have to press R)
[09:37] <Gosha> !404
[09:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 404 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:37] <Gosha> lol
[09:37] <SeveredCross> Then, at the recovery console, type fixmbr
[09:37] <Poul|Raider> awacs, checking the link but dont see any thing on the taskbar
[09:37] <Gosha> 404 not found
[09:38] <Xyhthyx> yotam: For windows sFTP servers, of course. Google is your friend :)
[09:38] <nikomo> Damn updates are making me fall asleep
[09:38] <poornapraveen> yeh i went through the repair... but that still didnt help
[09:38] <yotam> ok.
[09:38] <SeveredCross> fixmbr didn't help?
[09:38] <yotam> and my ubuntu machine?
[09:38] <christoffernors> Hi. When i attach my external monitor to my laptop the image shows up fine. But when i wanna play a movie it's just a black screen in all other video players than totem. Anyone know how to solve this?
[09:38] <Xenguy> sven_oostenbrink: check /etc/apt/sources.list  ?
[09:38] <howlingmadhowie> poornapraveen: grub installs a pointer in the mbr pointing to the grub installation. by wiping ubuntu from your harddrive you also deleted your boot manager. to be able to boot an operating system from the harddrive, you will have to install a new boot manager
[09:38] <Vlet> My nvidia card keeps defaulting to the vga port as primary (if I have something plugged in there) when I want it to default to dvi.. how do I do this?
[09:38] <poornapraveen> well fixmbr kinda scared me
[09:38] <awacs> Try: System  Administration  Restricted Devices Manager.
[09:38] <poornapraveen> it said it might mess up all data
[09:38] <Xyhthyx> yotam: You can also set one up on ubuntu/linux.
[09:38] <SeveredCross> Bah!
[09:38] <SeveredCross> fixmbr is safe.
[09:38] <poornapraveen> and it prompted me if i should go ahead

[09:38] <poornapraveen> oh ok
[09:38] <SeveredCross> I've used it dozens of times.
[09:38] <rambo3> niaGirl, is it telephone or broadband modem ? if you type in search box on top modem you will get alot of them like this : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbAdslModem?highlight=%28modem%29
[09:38] <retour> How to check on my machine what hardware uses what port?
[09:38] <SeveredCross> You're not likely to lose all your data, at least not in my experience.
[09:39] <Dome_> in which directory can i find the systemsounds pls?
[09:39] <SeveredCross> retour: sudo lscpi -vv probably.
[09:39] <nikomo> !FTPd

[09:39] <poornapraveen> is there a way i can remove or fix grub from the live CD? and jus have it bootup with windows?
[09:39] <SeveredCross> poornapraveen: No.
[09:39] <sven_oostenbrink> Xenguy, that should be good, I did not change it since last time
[09:39] <SeveredCross> Like howlingmadhowie said, you removed GRUB.
[09:39] <yotam> Xyhthyx: I didn't understand the last one...
[09:39] <SeveredCross> Whe you removed your Ubuntu partition.
[09:40] <scguy318> poornapraveen: reinstall Windows MBR i guess?
[09:40] <SeveredCross> GRUB's MBR pointer is still there, but GRUB is not.
[09:40] <Xenguy> sven_oostenbrink: I think the error points there, but I could of course be wrong -- maybe you want to verify the permissions on the file too
[09:40] <poornapraveen> hmm ok... i will reboot using winodws CD then..
[09:40] <slipmaster> I have a PCI card with serial ports that I am trying to use gtkterm with.  I figure that ttySx ports aren't being used since this is a PCI card...so how do I figure out what /dev my pci card serial ports are on?
[09:40] <Dome_> in which directory can i find the systemsounds pls, still don't find them....
[09:41] <niaGirl> broadband
[09:41] <nickrud_> Dome_: /usr/share/sounds
[09:41] <howlingmadhowie> poornapraveen: there are a number of third party boot managers you can install which fit in the mbr. grub itself is just too big for the mbr (it can do a huge amount).
[09:41] <poornapraveen> thanks severedcross,scguy ,howlingmadhowie
[09:41] <poornapraveen> thanks all
[09:41] <poornapraveen> oh ok..
[09:41] <MrObvious> yotam: okay back.
[09:41] <GNine> whats the command to ignore all joins/quits (in channel)
[09:41] <Dome_> thank you nickrud_ !
[09:41] <poornapraveen> but how can i install it wheni  cant get into any OS?
[09:41] <realshiva> hi guys, i included dmx_usb.ko in /etc/modules, but when i reboot, he dont include the module.
[09:41] <MrObvious> yotam: Sorry I'm at work and can't be dedicated to this channel.
[09:41] <retour> Severed: nogo
[09:42] <realshiva> he also dont write anything about the modul in syslog
[09:42] <Usrl> GNine: that will depend on your client. Mine (chatzilla) does it automatically
[09:42] <realshiva> what a i do wrong ?
[09:42] <Meyvn> I'm trying to get X server to start (on my laptop), but it keeps giving me errors, I have tried reconfiguring xserver-xorg 13 times with no luck. It seems X can't find compatible VESA modes. My latop uses a ATI Mobility X2300 GPU.
[09:42] <GNine> got xchat
[09:42] <winbond> SeveredCross, im using the server, it doesnt support copy/pase, i think only the workstation does
[09:42] <kitche> GNine, depedns on client  but /ignore #ubuntu +JOINS +QUITS +PARTS does it for some
[09:42] <zachary> I type in "usr" or my user name?
[09:42] <GNine> 10-4
[09:42] <rambo3> niaGirl, ok those should work out of the box. did you setup gateway and other info in network configuration ?
[09:42] <yotam> MrObvious: It's totally ok. I think I'll go with setting up an ftp server at work and will try and keep the machine on
[09:43] <Paolo> ciao
[09:43] <Paolo> thera are italian boy
[09:43] <MrObvious> yotam: I personally think that a FTP server will work. Where are the two machines that you need to access?
[09:43] <howlingmadhowie> poornapraveen: sometimes you can download a boot loader to a floppy, a usb stick or a cd. then you boot from this medium.
[09:43] <MrObvious> yotam: You mentioned a university and work, is that it?
[09:43] <upgrdman> is it possible to disable the gui bootup? im having problems with it
[09:43] <poornapraveen> would u recommend any bootloaders?
[09:43] <Digital_P> OK, I still have no linux/config.h -- I installed kernel headers and build-essential
[09:43] <zachary> usr/bin/vlc.... didn't do anything
[09:43] <MrObvious> poornapraveen: Grub works for Ubuntu okay.
[09:43] <Digital_P> I'm really ticked.
[09:43] <Devo> How do I uninstall programs from the terminal?
[09:43] <Poul^Laptop> awacs, after that i got the blue screen saying x server not configured?
[09:44] <yotam> MrObvious: yes. one machine at home and the second at uni. I'm only setting it up now so it will take me some time
[09:44] <Digital_P> Devo: apt-get remove <package>
[09:44] <Usrl> Devo: depends on how you installed it
[09:44] <Devo> Thanks.
[09:44] <zelva> devo: sudo apt-get remove
[09:44] <Xenguy> Devo: apt-get remove program-name
[09:44] <Paolo> exume
[09:44] <MrObvious> Digital_P: One second I'll look it up.
[09:44] <Xenguy> Devo: er, sudo that
[09:44] <MrObvious> yotam: Okay which do you want the server to be on?
[09:44] <Paolo> can you help me?
[09:44] <Paolo> i would like a channel in italian
[09:44] <niaGirl> no, i just have it set to autodetect
[09:44] <_Bart_> To install nvidia drivers I need to know what module for my kernel I must install, can I see that somewhere?
[09:44] <Frogzoo> !it | Paolo
[09:44] <ubotu> Paolo: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[09:44] <yotam> the machine at the uni
[09:45] <niaGirl> auto for dhcp
[09:45] <upgrdman> anyone? is it possible to force a non gui bootup? im not talking about disabling x or gdm... but it actual boot up...
[09:45] <howlingmadhowie> yotam: unless you really have to use ftp, i'd recommend tunneling file shares through an encrypted connection (ssh)
[09:45] <niaGirl> which is what i have set on xp on this laptop i'm typing from
[09:45] <dnz_x> Sysinfo for 'uslu': Linux 2.6.18.8-86 running KDE 3.5.7, CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.70GHz at 600 MHz (1200 bogomips), HD: 167/431GB, RAM: 1241/1256MB, 99 proc's, 1.37h up
[09:45] <Xenguy> upgrdman: I usually install 'rcconf', then use that to turn gdm on and off at boot
[09:45] <MrObvious> yotam: Okay then. Is it in your dorm or something? Because the problem I forsee is that the university might block the ports for a FTP server.
[09:45] <kitche> upgrdman, remove quiet and splash from menu.lst
[09:45] <Usrl> upgrdman: What do you mean GUI boot? The splash scren?
[09:45] <e> fn'upgrdman: do you mean removeing the splash screen at boot?
[09:45] <upgrdman> yes the splash
[09:45] <niaGirl> rombo, this laptop i'm using now is connected with a wired connection.  it is also set to dhcp and auto config
[09:46] <MrObvious> yotam: Or do you have your own dedicated connection apart from the university?
[09:46] <nikomo> !fi | nikomo
[09:46] <yotam> MrObvious: yes. it's in the lab I'm working in.
[09:46] <e>  remove quiet and splash from menu.lst
[09:46] <Frogzoo> upgrdman: disable gdm, and remove 'splash' & 'quiet' options in /boot/grub/menu.lst, then run 'sudo update-grub'
[09:46] <howlingmadhowie> poornapraveen: sorry, i don't know of any particular boot loaders which fit in the mbr. maybe wikipedia could help you
[09:46] <upgrdman> kitche, where is menu.lst
[09:46] <Reval> hello
[09:46] <Poul^Laptop> whats the command for configure the x-server?
[09:46] <_Bart_> To install nvidia drivers I need to know what module for my kernel I must install, can I see that somewhere??
[09:46] <MrObvious> yotam: So you can port forward okay, or you have a public IP?
[09:46] <e> /boot/grub
[09:46] <upgrdman> o thx Frogzoo
[09:46] <yotam> MrObvious: and no, I don't have a dedicated connection. off with that Idea
[09:46] <Digital_P> MrObvious: Finding anything? I couldn't find it on packages.ubuntu.com
[09:46] <SpudDogg> I've got a brand new feisty install on my desktop, and any key i press changes the screen resolution making even logging in impossible.  I've installed feisty a bunch of times before and never had this problem.  Any ideas?
[09:46] <zachary> anyway to add vlc to the open with menu?
[09:46] <MrObvious> howlingmadhowie: That might help.
[09:46] <rambo3> niaGirl, can you ping the modem
[09:46] <MrObvious> Digital_P: I had to install apt-file
[09:46] <funman> oups
[09:46] <zelva> upgman /home/username/.config/xfce4/desktop/menu.xml
[09:47] <MrObvious> Digital_P: It'll take a while.
[09:47] <yotam> MrObvious: this is to big for me, I don't think I'll remember that.
[09:47] <Digital_P> MrObvious: OK. thanks.
[09:47] <MrObvious> yotam: So I guess a FTP server won't work probably.
[09:47] <niaGirl> i would have to disconnect from here and then reconnect after attempting to ping the modem
[09:47] <niaGirl> how do i ping it?
[09:47] <Reval> Is there a way for me to upgrade to fiesty or install fiesty when the cd won't work for a computer?  I have hoary on that one now, but when I try to install fiesty, the cd rom drive seems to crap out =(
[09:47] <niaGirl> i'll go and then come back.
[09:47] <yotam> howlingmadhowie: I don't know how to do that.
[09:47] <MrObvious> yotam: Crud. Do you have a 3rd place that you could put this server? Or do you have a connection you could get for just the server like DSL or Cable?
[09:47] <yotam> howlingmadhowie: and I need something mounted
[09:47] <scguy318> !install | Reval
[09:47] <ubotu> Reval: 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
[09:47] <k31th> for web hosting 2 dns servers in different data centres should surfice?
[09:48] <wil> irc.freenode.com
[09:48] <MrObvious> wil: It's .net not .com
[09:48] <PlayMeNow> hi
[09:48] <howlingmadhowie> yotam: and don't worry about blocking ports. if you have access to the ftp server and the ftp client you can assign different ports
[09:48] <yotam> MrObvious: nope. I don't want to leave the machine on at home.
[09:48] <poornapraveen> hey severedcross! it says my computer has a nonstandard mbr and that fixmbr might damage the partition tabloes
[09:48] <SpudDogg> I've got a brand new feisty install on my desktop, and any key i press changes the screen resolution making even logging in impossible.  I've installed feisty a bunch of times before and never had this problem.  Any ideas?
[09:48] <rambo3> !network
[09:48] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:48] <MrObvious> !hi | PlayMeNow
[09:48] <ubotu> PlayMeNow: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:48] <SeveredCross> Don't worry about that.
[09:48] <poornapraveen> ok! :)
[09:48] <niaGirl> !network
[09:48] <niaGirl> ?
[09:48] <SeveredCross> It says that because WIndows doesn't expect to see anything but Windows' MBR loader there.
[09:48] <niaGirl> i'll brb
[09:49] <SeveredCross> It sees Grub and goes "What is this? Me no understand."
[09:49] <yotam> howlingmadhowie: you mean that I can tell my machine at work to use port 80 for ftp and so to my machine at home?
[09:49] <howlingmadhowie> yotam: the problem with ftp is that everything you send is unencrypted unless you send it inside an encrypted connection (a vpn, for example)
[09:49] <upgrdman> hum, removing quiet and splash helped a little, but my screen is still going black shortly after bootup... like after the kernel loads but as soon as would come up it goes all black. in recovery mode i can boot up just fine tho! ugh...
[09:49] <MrObvious> yotam: Yeah I hear ya. But the problem I forsee at a university is that they will have it so you can't set up a FTP server without talking to the IT admins for your specific case.
[09:49] <niaGirl> thanks for everything so far rombo
[09:49] <winbond> can i save my virtual machine, then install workstation instead of the server and just load my saved VM??  or will i have to set it up from scratch?
[09:49] <poornapraveen> :) ok
[09:49] <PlayMeNow> I want to boot ubuntu & xp with ntldr because grub is way too slow (compared to grub from ub 6.06 and ntldr)
[09:49] <PlayMeNow> is there any way?
[09:49] <rambo3> niaGirl, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetAndNetworking?highlight=%28networking%29
[09:49] <howlingmadhowie> yotam: yeah, you could do that. there's no law saying ftp has to use port 23 (or whichever port it is)
[09:49] <yotam> MrObvious: I never thought about that.
[09:49] <MrObvious> yotam: You might be able to set up a server at home or at a 3rd party place and leave that open.
[09:50] <MrObvious> yotam: I've tried this already lol..
[09:50] <Digital_P> SpudDogg: Good for you. So am I. :\
[09:50] <SpudDogg> Digital_P:   you need help with something?
[09:50] <MrObvious> Digital_P: Found it. Try the packages xen-headers-2.6.16 xen-doc-2.6.16
[09:50] <yotam> howlingmadhowie: that's a good Idea. as the most important thing I'll be sending is my master, I belive using an unsecure connection won't be to bad
[09:50] <PlayMeNow> [22:49]  <PlayMeNow> I want to boot ubuntu & xp with ntldr because grub is way too slow (compared to grub from ub 6.06 and ntldr)
[09:50] <Digital_P> MrObvious: What is xen?
[09:51] <SpudDogg> I've got a brand new feisty install on my desktop, and any key i press changes the screen resolution making even logging in impossible.  I've installed feisty a bunch of times before and never had this problem.  Any ideas?
[09:51] <anto9us> PlayMeNow: no, you can alter the timing on grub though see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:51] <niaGirl> brb
[09:51] <yotam> MrObvious: home is not an option. about 3rd party place, I tried to find a site that will do that.
[09:51] <Digital_P> MrObvious: W/E, if it has the files... :) Thanks!
[09:52] <zachary> so when I use vlc, I can't open files that are on the network... anyone know why?
[09:52] <yotam> howlingmadhowie:is there a way to mount a folder from my windows machine at the uni to a computer at home via ssh?
[09:52] <Gosha> How do I change permissions trough the terminal?
[09:52] <poornapraveen> ok... it seems to work so far... i am not seeing grub!
[09:52] <Gosha> !permissions
[09:52] <poornapraveen> thanks alot severedcross!
[09:52] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[09:52] <PlayMeNow> also, will ext2 IFS work with ext3?
[09:52] <zachary> only desktop and sample
[09:52] <poornapraveen> and thanks everyone else!
[09:53] <Poul^Laptop> how do i config the xserver thing, sudo nvidia-xconfig    whats the command after that
[09:53] <kitche> PlayMeNow, yes since ext2=ext3 but ext3 has journaling added
[09:53] <Xenguy> Gosha: chmod (and chown)
[09:53] <howlingmadhowie> yotam: you'd have to install an ssh server on the windows machine. don't ask me how to do that. mounting folders over ssh is a pretty standard thing on *nix computers however, so there must be software to enable it on windows
[09:53] <MrObvious> Digital_P: Also try ruby1.8-dev ruby 1.9-dev libuclibc-dev
[09:53] <MrObvious> digital_p: I would suggest trying those packages one at a time, and if it doesn't work uninstall it, then go to the next.
[09:54] <MrObvious> yotam: Hmm this is a tough one.
[09:54] <yotam> ok. I'll just have to find some windows guru to do it won't I...
[09:54] <Xenguy> howlingmadhowie: I have installed an ssh server on a windows box before.  I think I used 'cygwin', but don't remember the exact process anymore.  It can be done, if need be
[09:54] <Xenguy> er, yotam ^^^
[09:54] <MrObvious> yotam: No I've set up FTP servers before and know how, but it's just you need a network that you can configure yourself.
[09:54] <SpudDogg> I've got a brand new feisty install on my desktop, and any key i press changes the screen resolution making even logging in impossible.  I've installed feisty a bunch of times before and never had this problem.  Any ideas?
[09:54] <probono> hi all, is there a way to set GNOME fonts (for dialogs, menus, etc.) from the CLI? (In which config file are the fonts saved?)
[09:54] <MrObvious> yotam: The problem is getting past a NAT router. :(
[09:54] <veracruzano> Enter text here...hola alguna amiguita para charlar
[09:54] <yotam> yes Xenguy?
[09:55] <sauvin> How is French language support added so that I don't get ? for accented characters?
[09:55] <MrObvious> !es | veracruzano
[09:55] <ubotu> veracruzano: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[09:55] <Xenguy> yotam: see the line above
[09:55] <nikomo> finally updates got downloaded
[09:55] <MrObvious> yotam: I wonder if you could buy webspace with FTP access or find a friend who has a box you could set up for a FTP server or SFTP server.
[09:56] <yotam> Xenguy: thanks I'll hope I'll remember ony of that once my machine is up
[09:56] <SpudDogg> nobody knows my keypress problem?
[09:56] <anto9us> yotam: you can forward ports 139 and 445 over ssh, smb (windows shares) uses one or the other as I recall
[09:56] <MrObvious> yotam: Or you could buy a DSL/Cable broadband account and put it in your dorm.
[09:56] <veracruzano> hola
[09:56] <MrObvious> anto9us: The problem is fiinding a place to forward ports.
[09:56] <MrObvious> anto9us: He's at a university.
[09:56] <sauvin> How is French language support added so I don't get question marks (or other sillinesses) every time an accented character is cat'ed to the terminal?
[09:56] <Xenguy> yotam: don't remember it, just log the channel or take softcopy notes :-)
[09:56] <rambo3> !locales | sauvin,
[09:56] <ubotu> sauvin,: To set up and configure your locales, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf
[09:56] <BBking> mr0bvious: there is a real weird thing: my resolution suddenly jumped to 640x480 after a reboot and i can
[09:56] <yotam> anto9up: thanks, as I told Xenguy, I'll try and remember that
[09:56] <BBking> setit back
[09:57] <sauvin> Thanks!
[09:57] <triptec> I'm getting a syntax error...unexpected token 'STUFF,'
[09:57] <triptec> ./configure: line 21547: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(STUFF, sigc++-2.0 libcurl >= 7.12.0 libtorrent >= 0.11.6,'
[09:57] <MrObvious> yotam: Do you have an option of getting a dedicated connection in your dorm or something?
[09:57] <BBking> * I can't set it back
[09:57] <upgrdman> anytime i run sudo update-grub it reset my menu.lst to the way it was before i edited it... wtf?
[09:57] <triptec> can't find anything about it...
[09:57] <MrObvious> yotam: You can always come back and find me or someone else here who is helpful too.
[09:57] <Xenguy> yotam: BTW I have lost track of your original request, but FWIW I use 'unison' to mirror/synchronize all my files at work to home, and vica versa
[09:57] <MrObvious> BBking: Yikes!
[09:57] <TheIronChef> can someone help me .... i have vista insalled and when i put in my ubuntu cd to do an indstall it syas can't access ttyjob contorl turned off ....... any sugestions?
[09:57] <MrObvious> BBking: Unfourtinately IDK really on that one.
[09:57] <BBking> Indeed >_<
[09:57] <nikomo> 119 updates.. taking a while
[09:57] <BBking> dudeincles?
[09:57] <yotam> MrObvious: I have one at home, it's only that I'm about to move to a small apratment and my pc is really load
[09:57] <shwouchk> please help! I can't setup an lvm logical volume... heres the error I get: http://rafb.net/p/qbbCFq63.html
[09:58] <veracruzano> alguna dama en linea?
[09:58] <MrObvious> BBking: Just ask a general question or try posting on the forums for help I guess. :(
[09:58] <BBking> Hmm
[09:58] <Gosha> how do I search apt-get? Is it possible?
[09:58] <Gosha> !apt-get
[09:58] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[09:58] <MrObvious> yotam: Okay get DSL or Cable at your apartment then.
[09:58] <BBking> Really struggling with Ubuntu.
[09:58] <yotam> Xenguy: I tried to find a way to sych them with an online storage
[09:58] <nickrud_> Gosha: apt-cache search
[09:58] <Usrl> Gosha: apt-cache search
[09:58] <Gosha> okay, thanks
[09:58] <Meyvn> I'm trying to get X server to start (on my laptop), but it keeps giving me errors, I have tried reconfiguring xserver-xorg 13 times with no luck. It seems X can't find compatible VESA modes. My latop uses a ATI Mobility X2300 GPU.
[09:58] <Xenguy> Gosha: apt-cache search keyword  ?
[09:58] <BBking> Maybe I format my disk :)
[09:58] <scguy318> ThelronChef: try starting the CD with all_generic_ide
[09:58] <MrObvious> yotam: Then you should be able to set up the FTP server at home.
[09:58] <BBking> and put Vista on it
[09:58] <TheIronChef> i have tried that
[09:59] <Meyvn> Aside from that, how can I configure my network cards from console?
[09:59] <upgrdman> anyone know why update-grub would reset my menu.lst?
[09:59] <MrObvious> BBking: Nah don't do that. Vista is worse. IDK why you're having problems. :(
[09:59] <Xenguy> yotam: 'unison' will synch between windows and linux boxes for example
[09:59] <MrObvious> upgrdman: Because that reinstalls grub.
[09:59] <TheIronChef> i took evryting off the boot options except genric.all_generic_ide=1
[09:59] <BBking> Mr0bvious: I don't know too :(
[09:59] <voraistos> Meyvn yourgraphics card doesnt have a 2d core, and the company that makes them sucks
[09:59] <scguy318> ThelronChef: why? you should have simply added the string all_generic_ide to the end
[09:59] <yotam> Xenguy: I tried it before and onlu got angry
[09:59] <MrObvious> BBking: Are you willing to reinstall Ubuntu?
[09:59] <upgrdman> MrObvious, o ok... so if i edit my menu.lst i do not need to run update-grub to have my changes effected?
[09:59] <MrObvious> BBking: That might help you at least get 1024x768 back.
[09:59] <BBking> Exactly what I was typing
[09:59] <howlingmadhowie> BBking: can you paste your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file?
[10:00] <BBking> reinstalling is the option i think
[10:00] <BBking> yes sec
[10:00] <lapinferoce> hello
[10:00] <MrObvious> upgrdman: If you know how then you should be able to do so just fine. But if you're unsure then ask.
[10:00] <Meyvn> voraistos, strangely VESA works in OpenSUSE 10.2, but not in Feisty
[10:00] <Xenguy> yotam: setup took be a bit of exploring/time, but it works great once you get it setup.
[10:00] <MrObvious> howlingmadhowie: He's having problems getting 1440x990 on his monitor and now can't get even 1024x768 which worked.
[10:00] <MrObvious> BBking: Make sure you pastebin it please!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
[10:01] <Xenguy> yotam: the GUI is 'unison-gtk' BTW
[10:01] <voraistos> Meyvn strange indeed i have done a bit of work on ati cards, but i havent got one of those. lemme check
[10:01] <PlayMeNow> how cna I make grub hightlight xp by default instead of ubuntu?
[10:01] <upgrdman> i just need to put a # in front of the "quiet splash" part of my ubuntu line... the splash at bootup wont work for me and all i get is a black screen
[10:01] <rambo3> MrObvious,  yeah 1440x990 is a tricky one
[10:01] <BBking> The weird thing is, Mr0bvious, I have not changed the file before the reboot
[10:01] <howlingmadhowie> MrObvious: this sounds like an nvidia problem...
[10:01] <BBking> ^
[10:01] <TheIronChef> could someone message me please.... I am basically a noob at this but I am getting a strange error when installing
[10:01] <Poul^Laptop> gtk-warning **: cannot open display:  when trying to nvidia-settings
[10:01] <yotam> Xenguy: Thanks. I'll try and remember all of that once the machine is up. I think I'll try first to have an ssh connection with the machine at the uni
[10:01] <BBking> howlingmadhowie: It is -_-
[10:01] <scguy318> ThelronChef: why? you should have simply added the string all_generic_ide to the end
[10:01] <scguy318> ThelronChef: repeating message from be4
[10:01] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: You'll have to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst for part of it. If I had 5 secs I'd google it.
[10:02] <Jowi> upgrdman, better put in a vga=normal to disable the framebuffer. or set a supported resolution for your card.
[10:02] <TheIronChef> oh really? I didnt know I had to do that
[10:02] <Jowi> !framebuffer | upgrdman
[10:02] <scguy318> ThelronChef: you did stick the string to the end? because you said you removed all the boot options
[10:02] <ubotu> upgrdman: If you would like information on framebuffers, please visit: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer
[10:02] <Xenguy> yotam: yes, unison relies on ssh, so verify the latter works first
[10:02] <TheIronChef> what is the axact line I should add?
[10:02] <upgrdman> Jowi, o ok thx
[10:02] <scguy318> ThelronChef: press space, then "all_generic_ide" without quotes
[10:02] <TheIronChef> ok thank you i will try that
[10:02] <scguy318> ThelronChef: when you press F6 at the CD boot menu
[10:02] <TheIronChef> right
[10:02] <BBking> Mr0bvious: http://rafb.net/p/JU86Tn55.html
[10:03] <TheIronChef> I will try and if i dont return then it worked haha ... thanks alot!
[10:03] <howlingmadhowie> BBking: of course, you could always use the "vesa" driver. then the display would work, but you'd lose 3d-acceleration.
[10:03] <no0n> I downloaded nero linux and untar'd it.  Now i have two folders with subdirs - 'etc' and 'usr'.  how can I install nerolinux from here?
[10:03] <Gosha> Can I assign a vncviewer to a screen? the ctrl-alt-f* ones, you know.
[10:03] <BBking> vesa?
[10:03] <MrObvious> BBking: The 15 bit depth has an extra enter on that line. You might want to fix it.
[10:03] <scguy318> no0n: why do you need to untar it? there should be a deb for Nero Linux
[10:03] <scguy318> no0n: you can simply install the package with sudo dpkg -i
[10:03] <no0n> i searchd the reps and couldnt find it
[10:04] <voraistos> Meyvn this gpu of yours, its very recent, isnt it ?
[10:04] <scguy318> no0n: Nero provides debs for download
[10:04] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Type gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst and enter your password.
[10:04] <rambo3> BBking, did you try other refresh sync
[10:04] <Meyvn> voraistos, yes it is, it a brand new laptop
[10:04] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: I'm editing from windows
[10:04] <BBking> Uhh... what do you mean?
[10:04] <howlingmadhowie> BBking: your xorg.conf looks okay. can you paste /var/log/Xorg.0.log as well?
[10:04] <Xenguy> no0n: maybe install k3b instead of nero
[10:04] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Eww reboot to Linux first please.
[10:04] <no0n> okay well i'll do that, but in the future.  if you untar'd it and had those two folders what would you do from there?
[10:04] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: ok
[10:04] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: When you are back get my attention.
[10:04] <no0n> Xenguy: im trying to burn a uif
[10:04] <BBking> Ofc howlingmadhowie
[10:05] <scguy318> no0n: i have no clue, i dont think Nero provides tars anyway
[10:05] <rambo3> My settings are :         HorizSync       30-60     VertRefresh     50-75
[10:05] <Xenguy> no0n: never heard of it
[10:05] <scguy318> no0n: they simply have RPMs and DEBs on their site
[10:05] <GNine> heh
[10:05] <howlingmadhowie> BBking: you could try upping horizsync and vertrefresh to some ridiculously high values just to check if that's the problem, but i think the newer nvidia cards tend to ignore those fields anyway
[10:05] <voraistos> Meyvn well, the latest ati cards if i remember right only have a 3d core, 2d is being emulated throough the driver. try updating the driver -but i thought ubuntu was using the latest ones- or, use the proprietary one, called fglrx
[10:05] <MrObvious> no0n: Why do you need nero? K3b works as good anyway.
[10:06] <Xero> DEB DEB DEB! Why isn't it UBU? (I know Ubuntu is based on Debian, but I'm bored, so I decided to ask)
[10:06] <scguy318> MrObvious: K3b doesnt do .uif
[10:06] <Meyvn> voraistos, I'll try fglrx, thanks!
[10:06] <BBking> It's really a shame, it doesn't work that easy :(
[10:06] <MrObvious> scguy318: Ahh.
[10:06] <Xenguy> scguy318: just avoid the proprietary crap in the first place :P
[10:06] <Poul^Laptop> anyone who can assist me get this working, configure my nvidia grafic card, i keep getting blue screen when booting up
[10:06] <MrObvious> Convert it? Download a better image?
[10:06] <Poul^Laptop> got a geforce 8800
[10:06] <scguy318> MrObvious: sure I guess, im not the one using Nero Linux :)
[10:06] <howlingmadhowie> BBking: once i've got the nvidia driver working on my computer, i never touch it again...
[10:07] <voraistos> Meyvn here is a link for you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[10:07] <BBking> Haha
[10:07] <Meyvn> voraistos, thanks for the help

[10:12] <dudeicles> how long is the normal time ot install Ubuntu?
[10:12] <Aval0n> can ubuntu see windows shares by default without installing samba?
[10:12] <voraistos> rio: ok what do you wanna do then
[10:12] <BBking> Mr0bvious, I don't bother reinstalling
[10:12] <MrObvious> BBking: I'm using google so let me find some solutions via google please.
[10:12] <XiXaQ> I'm having problems with colours in ubuntu. I've just built a new machine that uses an onboard vga. The colours are way too dark.. How can I fix this?
[10:12] <d4rkmonkey> dudeicles depends on your computer.
[10:12] <rio> bat for ltsp linux april 2008
[10:12] <rio> but
[10:12] <dudeicles> I noticed last time it took me about an hour to install..
[10:12] <MrObvious> BBking: And chances are a reinstall may not fix it.
[10:12] <sauvin> dudeicles, when I installed ubuntu on my laptop, it took less time than to make a pot of coffee.
[10:12] <PlayMeNow> ok
[10:12] <BBking> Mr0bvious: if you really insist
[10:12] <sarthor> Hi, I am new to linux, here is my postfix main.cf configuration, problem is, that when my clients send emails, so the reciver, reviece the email in there bulk folder, not inside the inbox, i am using postfix a simple MTA.

[10:13] <rio> I want to install ubuntu 7.04 and make ltsp
[10:13] <dudeicles> I know that's slow but damn... lol
[10:13] <BBking> I'm now taking a shower so, please pm me if you have got something useful
[10:13] <scguy318> sarthor: dont spam, do you have your DNS server set properly?

[10:13] <dudeicles> sauvin: what are the specs of your laptop?
[10:13] <MrObvious> BBking: K
[10:13] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: ok i'm on ubuntu
[10:13] <dudeicles> must be much better than my desktop. lol
[10:13] <d4rkmonkey> DuClare Probably less than an hour, I'm not 100% sure though... it also depends on how you're partitioning I think.
[10:13] <dudeicles> BBking: check ya later
[10:13] <howlingmadhowie> MrObvious: now he has both of us trying to fix his problem...
[10:13] <BBking> Mr0bvious: another thanks

[10:13] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Ok type gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:13] <MrObvious> howlingmadhowie: I'm googling it.
[10:13] <scguy318> sarthor: many mail servers resolve the sending machine, if theres some sort of DNS misconfiguration they may reject
[10:13] <dudeicles> can I use my ubuntu cd to format a HD prior to install?
[10:13] <rio> but I confused how abot printer sharing in ubuntu LTSP
[10:14] <sarthor> scguy318, pasted wrongly, Yes DNS are set there in my resolv.conf and in my my named.conf.optioion too
[10:14] <veracruzano> hola alguna nena

[10:14] <sauvin> dudeicles, it's an HP DV8315nr, if that helps. What kind of specs you looking for?
[10:14] <MrObvious> BBking: Yup.
[10:14] <veracruzano> hola damitas
[10:14] <sarthor> scguy318, Can we put forwarders here in this main.cf file?
[10:14] <MrObvious> BBking: howlingmadhowie: Can we join another channel?
[10:14] <dudeicles> was just wondering processor speed and ram
[10:14] <PlayMeNow> (gedit:6317): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[10:14] <PlayMeNow> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[10:14] <voraistos> rio: there are some tools (with gui !!! ) out there for that. i didnt set anything like that up before, but on the wiki there should be something
[10:14] <BBking> #myproblem
[10:14] <MrObvious> BBking: howlingmadhowie: I got one already set up (#eocf) if that is okay.
[10:15] <tobi1canobe> shwouchk, try modprobe dm_mod
[10:15] <voraistos> !ltsp
[10:15] <ubotu> LTSP is the Linux Terminal Server Project, which adds thin-client support to Linux servers. See chapter 3 of the !edubuntuhandbook, http://www.ltsp.org and/or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Terminal_Server_Project
[10:15] <scguy318> sarthor: but your actual DNS server should have MX record and all that
[10:15] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: ok it started gedit (not sure why the error, whatever)
[10:15] <MrObvious> howlingmadhowie: Can you join #eocf?
[10:15] <howlingmadhowie> BBking: btw. are you sure you mean 990 and not 900?
[10:15] <scguy318> sarthor: I'm not an expert in MTA configuration but thats my understanding, prob others can enlighten
[10:15] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Okay give me a minute.
[10:15] <BBking> 990
[10:15] <BBking> sure
[10:15] <shwouchk> tobi1canobe: I use raid0 so it is loaded...
[10:16] <BBking> It has worked at that resolution
[10:16] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Ok lemme google this 1 sec.
[10:16] <squeakyp> i have a video_ts folder, what's the quickest way to burn it to a dvd?
[10:16] <sarthor> scguy318, I am a cable internet runner, and i dont have my any private smtp server running,
[10:16] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: ok
[10:16] <squeakyp> i need dvd burning software that will burn it in dvd-video mode
[10:16] <dudeicles> how can I check the HD space on my computer?
[10:16] <squeakyp> dudeicles: go into that drive in nautilus and it will tell you in the status bar
 yes, I see wiki but not usefull, I try with cups but there are another problem
[10:16] <pl9> @dudeicles : df -h
[10:16] <scguy318> squeaky: k3b?
[10:17] <squeakyp> scguy318: heh, preferably gnome-based ;) should i just use k3b then?
 with cups I sharing printer with ip
[10:17] <scguy318> squeaky: thats fine, doesnt really matter
[10:17] <dudeicles> next big question
[10:17] <squeakyp> i never properly installed kde, only the dependencies needed
[10:17] <scguy318> sarthor: u probably need something dedicated for that mail server coz
[10:17] <dudeicles> I used this hard drive to test ubuntu
[10:17] <squeakyp> mmk then, thx scguy318
[10:17] <scguy318> sarthor: the whole DNS bit
[10:17] <tobi1canobe> shwouchk, what's in /proc/misc
[10:17] <scguy318> sarthor: other than that I can't say more
[10:18] <dudeicles> is there a way to copy all teh settings and stuff from this HD to another formatted HD?
[10:18] <rio> but if an error or busy, server computer n client with local printer must be restart
[10:18] <dudeicles> like Windows you could use Norton Ghost to copy all settings and everything.
[10:18] <sarthor> scguy318, Ok.
[10:18] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Can you copy/paste the whole thing to a pastebin?
[10:18] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Do you know what a pastebin is?
[10:18] <PlayMeNow> nopw
[10:18] <PlayMeNow> *nope
[10:18] <shwouchk> tobi1canobe:  63 device-mapper is one of the things if that's what you looked for...
[10:18] <SpudDogg> man, keyboard errors are no fun
[10:19] <scguy318> dudeicles: partition copy? dd? :P
[10:19] <dudeicles> copy from one HD to another
[10:19] <tobi1canobe> shwouchk, ok,never mind then.
[10:19] <pl9> dudeicles:  assuming same HD sizes: dd -if /dev/hda -of /dev/hdb  with a source and b destination
[10:19] <user12345> sweet!!! gutsy worked thanks whoever suggested it
[10:20] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Okay go to the pastebin link in the /topic
[10:20] <dudeicles> oh ok
[10:20] <dudeicles> the HD would be much larger
[10:20] <dudeicles> like this is 12 gig and the other would be 80 gig
[10:20] <scguy318> pl9 dd if=...?
[10:20] <voraistos> rio. your printer is on its own or attached to your server ?
[10:20] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Then copy/paste the whole menu.lst file contents to the URL for the pastebin in that textbox, then push Submit and give me the resulting URL.
[10:20] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: k
[10:20] <pl9> dudeicles:  I would sugest partimage
[10:21] <dudeicles> sudo apt-get install partimage?
[10:21] <[VASCO] size> hello guys, i'm trying to start my live cd of ubuntu 7.04 but it didnt load; i get a black screen after it 'loads' the ubuntu load screen
[10:21] <shwouchk> tobi1canobe: any other insight?
[10:21] <shwouchk> please help! I can't setup an lvm logical volume... heres the error I get: http://rafb.net/p/qbbCFq63.html
[10:21] <tobi1canobe> shwouchk, nope, sorry
[10:21] <MrObvious> [VASCO] size: Any errors? Try redownloading and running a MD5sum check on the ISO and burning at 2-4x on a CD-R.
[10:21] <MrObvious> !md5sum
[10:21] <ubotu> To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more
[10:21] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Getting it?
[10:21] <ninix> hi, anyone is using QNX Momentics here ? (install on ubuntu machine)
[10:21] <[VASCO] size> MrObvious i used the ubuntu check defects
 no, the printer attach to client
[10:22] <[VASCO] size> and it says that all is onk
[10:22] <[VASCO] size> ok
[10:22] <scguy318> ninix: I'm not, but whats your question?
[10:22] <rio> so server LTSP dont have printer
[10:22] <MrObvious> [VASCO] size: Okay that's my idea then. Try the alternate CD to install.
[10:22] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36824/
[10:22] <PlayMeNow> there ya go
[10:22] <jarjarbinks> anyone know if you have to install something to view webcams over YIM?
[10:22] <[VASCO] size> MrObvious i just downloaded 1 cd :/; the live
[10:22] <scguy318> [VASCO] : try alternate CD, then we can rectify graphics issue after install
[10:22] <rio> I set LTSP ini lts.conf
[10:22] <rio> I set LTSP ni lts.conf
[10:23] <ninix> scguy318: i got some problem... with the compiler and DBG. it wont compile (build all from the menu)
[10:23] <[VASCO] size> scguy318 ok
[10:23] <MrObvious> [VASCO] size: Well that's what i'd suggest.
[10:23] <foug_> is anyone here good with bluefish?
[10:23] <user12345> !nvidia
[10:23] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:23] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ I've used a bit, what do you need?
[10:23] <rio> I set LTSP in lts.conf, add printer lq2180 = lp0
[10:23] <MrObvious> [VASCO] size: scguy suggested what I was meaning to suggest too.
[10:23] <rio> the printer is working
[10:23] <jarjarbinks> anyone know if you have to install something to view webcams over YIM?
[10:23] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: how can i preview a website? in DreamWeaver there was two windows, one for coding and one of what the page looked like. Does bluefish have anything like that?
[10:23] <[VASCO] size> MrObvious yeah yeah;t
[10:23] <rio> but the probelm is when i must sharing the printer
[10:24] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: See the line that says ## default num at the top?
[10:24] <[VASCO] size> MrObvious i will try the safe mode graphics mode
[10:24] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ one second.
[10:24] <scguy318> ninix: i wouldn't know :(
[10:24] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: k
[10:24] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: yes
[10:24] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Ok under that see default: 0?
[10:24] <PlayMeNow> yes
[10:24] <foug_> !equivalents
[10:24] <ubotu> A comprehensive list of of Windows-equivalent applications in Linux can be found at http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WhatWindowsUsersWant
[10:25] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ I don't think that there is...
[10:25] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: xp is 4th on the list, so that would be 3?
[10:25] <MrObvious> Yeah right I think so.
[10:25] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: ahh, is there a better html program for linux that's imilar to dreamweaver?
[10:25] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ dreamweaver's one sucked anyways, never gave me anything accurate.
[10:25] <tobi1canobe> shwouchk: what about ls -l /dev/mapper ?
[10:25] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ uhh I'm not sure. you can try screem or geany, I personally just use gedit
[10:25] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Buut thats what you set.
[10:25] <BlackDark> hi
[10:26] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: ?
[10:26] <BlackDark> my system, installed with festy, do some kernel panics every 4-5 days
[10:26] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: well, i would too but i havn't used HTML since freshman/sophmore year (5 years ago haha) and i just need to make a simple page for my friend who is a drummer
[10:26] <BlackDark> how can I figure out why it's kernel panicing ?
[10:26] <logan_> When I click shut down, ubuntu restarts. My computer didn't do this in windows so I don't think it is a BIOS problem. Any clue?
[10:26] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: So play with that setting, the Default: # and it'll set it to the entry you want. It might be 4 I'm not sure. If it boots into memtest you'll know why.
[10:26] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Try 3 first.
[10:26] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: ok
[10:27] <cje> hi, I am a volunteer in San Francisco, California, trying to support a public middle school with FOSS.  Ubuntu Feisty, specifically.  We are trying to move the school to FOSS.  Right now we are trying to network a Feisty box as the new file server, but we are having problems talking to the legacy Windows desktops.  Anyone familiar with solving this problem?
[10:27] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: it was faster to do from windows >.>
[10:27] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ ok, if you do have dreamweaver you can get it working in linux, I have my copy working but I haven't used in it a while. I can get you the link if you want
[10:27] <PlayMeNow> *would be faster
[10:27] <nikom1> How do I run a file with WINE? I mean, what directory?
[10:27] <foug_>  d4rkmonkey sure please\
[10:27] <MrObvious> PlayMeNow: Yes but Winblows can mess up your system editing it like that.
[10:27] <scguy318> nikom1: cd to where the EXE file is, then wine "file.exe"
[10:28] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: are there any better image editting programs out there than the gimp? Pixel32 looked really nice but it's not free software
[10:28] <BlackDark> nikom1:  wine exefile.exe
[10:28] <MrObvious> cje: As in using Winblows File Sharing to get it to work?
[10:28] <MrObvious> cje: I'm not expert but all I know is that you want Samba to do it.
[10:28] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ http://luiscosio.com/how-to-dreamweaver-and-flash-8-running-on-ubuntu-dapper It is dreamweaver 8 though, and i'm not sure if it works for newer versions. You also require it installed on a version of windows.
[10:28] <BlackDark> cje:  samba with ldap = more or less active directory
[10:28] <PlayMeNow> MrObvious: ok thanks
[10:28] <sk8inrox> Where do I add the force option in my etc/fstab?
[10:28] <cje> MrObvious, we are trying to move to an all FOSS environment eventually.
[10:29] <BlackDark> sk8inrox: what option ?
[10:29] <nikom1> .... I can't understand the cd command properly....
[10:29] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: ahhh i see, i'll probably just stick to the open source linux stuff than, i just installed Amaya and it has the preview feature
[10:29] <BlackDark> sk8inrox: add the option after default
[10:29] <nikom1> What directory does it start at? /home/?
[10:29] <BlackDark> like defaut,myoption
[10:29] <sk8inrox> BlackDark, force
[10:29] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ ok
[10:29] <PlayMeNow> nikom1: open terminat and type: cd <the path where to go>
[10:29] <scguy318> nikom1: it starts in your current directory, or if you supply an absolute path
[10:29] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: are there any better image editting programs out there than the gimp? Pixel32 looked really nice but it's not free software
[10:29] <MrObvious> cje: No clue. There might be a place to ask specific to FOSS or something.
[10:29] <scguy318> nikom1: then it follows the absolute path
[10:29] <sk8inrox> BlackDark, I tried that and it said the line was bad
[10:30] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ GIMP is very powerful if you learn how to use it.
[10:30] <BlackDark> sk8inrox: what do you try to do ?
[10:30] <nikom1> cd to desktop would be /home/*user*/desktop ?
[10:30] <cje> MrObvious, we have samba.
[10:30] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: ehhh i hate the way it's setup, i'm way to use to photoshop's layout and shortcuts
[10:30] <MrObvious> cje: Try #samba then

[10:31] <uptownben> Hi All. I have ubuntu installed on my ibm x24 notebook, I am using a wireless pcmcia card(RT61). Whenever I leave the system idle for a while the network card shuts down and the system locks up. This does not happen when connected to a wired network. any ideas?
[10:31] <sk8inrox> BlackDark, Im trying to enable read/write on ntfs and I used ntfsfix and it said to add force to the fstab file
[10:31] <scguy318> nikom1: capital sensitivity, and cd ~/Desktop
[10:31] <MrObvious> nikom1: Linux is case sensitive. Watch that.
[10:31] <nikom1> I forgot UNIX is case-sensitive
[10:31] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: ahh
[10:31] <sk8inrox> BlackDark, YOu want me to pastebin my fstab?
[10:31] <BlackDark> yes pls
[10:31] <realshiva> ./magicq: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by ./magicq) <-- libc6 is installed what does he want from me ?!
[10:31] <tobi1canobe> shwouchk, do you have a /dev/vg directory ?
[10:32] <sk8inrox> BlackDark, I get line 11 and 13 as bad with this http://pastebin.com/m33d4b3b5
[10:32] <swx1> Is there anyone who can help me linking ccsm to desktop effect in gutsy?
[10:32] <shwouchk> tobi1canobe: no
[10:32] <chief> swx1: ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:32] <swx1> thx
[10:32] <MrObvious> realshiva: Are you trying to compile magicq?
[10:32] <tobi1canobe> shwouchk, have you set up vg at all yet ?
[10:33] <realshiva> MrObvious, yes
[10:33] <Flannel> shwouchk: Try modprobe dm-mod
[10:33] <scguy318> realshiva: sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev?
[10:33] <Fxyz4ever> is better beryl or compiz?
[10:33] <BlackDark> sk8inrox: so you want to force a locale=en_US.UTF-8 ?
[10:33] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: ok amaya kinda sucks, how can i preview stuff in bluefish?
[10:33] <Jabu> Are 1150 users "normal" in #ubuntu?
[10:33] <Flannel> Jabu: yep
[10:33] <foug_> yes Jabu
[10:33] <sk8inrox> BlackDark, That was already there
[10:33] <foug_> biggest channel on this server, Jabu
[10:34] <shwouchk> tobi1canobe: yes... you saw my paste!
[10:34] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ I don't think you can...
[10:34] <nikom1> Anyone with experience on running Steam with WINE?
[10:34] <codeshah> How do you guys play quicktime or windows media files on UBUNTU?
[10:34] <codeshah> or is it possible?
[10:34] <nikom1> It's telling me Steam is already running
[10:34] <sk8inrox> BlackDark, Should I remove it
[10:34] <MrObvious> realshiva: Try installing libc6

[10:34] <dgjones> Jabu, maybe down to 1000 at a quiet time, and up to 1500 when gutsy gets released
[10:34] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: i can't preview what i'm making at all? i'd have to save it, upload it to a server then go to the address?
[10:34] <scguy318> nikom1: and I've done Steam on Wine be4
[10:34] <Jabu> Okay... alot
[10:34] <scguy318> nikom1: it may help to use latest Wine from Budgetdedicated
[10:34] <tobi1canobe> shwouchk, I'm talking about pvcreate vgcreate that you need to do before you can lvcreate
[10:34] <mc_> my "down arrow key" doesnt work anymore when scrolling, any thoughts why?
[10:34] <MrObvious> scguy318: Got a URL?
[10:34] <d4rkmonkey> foug_ not that I know of, if its just HTML you can open that in your browser, instead of http:// its like file:// then the directory in firefox and that can preview it I guess
[10:34] <BlackDark> sk8inrox: yes
[10:35] <Jabu> One day this channel cant hold all the questions that will come up
[10:35] <sauvin> codeshah, I use mplayer.
[10:35] <realshiva> MrObvious, libc6 is installed, scguy318  that was not the missing paket :-(
[10:35] <foug_> d4rkmonkey: hmm, k

[10:35] <scguy318> Jabu: ubotu is a bot, its just an automated program

[10:37] <BlackDark> frost0:  ln -s filename symlink
[10:37] <scguy318> MrObvious: ah, http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[10:37] <Jabu> So i use !anything
[10:37] <MrObvious> Cool thanks scguy318
[10:37] <nikom1> What's the latest version of WINE? I got 0.9.44
[10:37] <chief> Jabu: yes, but don't go overboard
[10:37] <scguy318> nikom1: that is latest

[10:38] <shwouchk> please help! I can't setup an lvm logical volume... heres the error I get: http://rafb.net/p/qbbCFq63.html
[10:39] <scguy318> nikom1: you can do the whole reg patch
[10:39] <_Bart_> Help, installed nvidia drivers now X wont start
[10:39] <realshiva> nikom1, yes you do!
[10:39] <nikom1> :(
[10:39] <scguy318> realshiva: not rly, you can add a reg entry to have it use times new roman or somethin
[10:39] <Esteth> Anyone know why alltray just doesn't work for me? clicking on a window when it asks me to, it doesn't seem to register my click at all. It _does_ close when i click on the "click me to close" box though
[10:39] <scguy318> nikom1: not rly, you can do the reg patch
[10:39] <realshiva> scguy318, but i think you need it to compilate
[10:39] <frost0> BlackDark, here is the issue. i'm still new with ssh using ssh, and i want to run the same game just off of another port...so the admin said create symlinks in another directory and run it from there.
[10:39] <BlackDark> _Bart_: did you reboot or load the nividia module ?
[10:39] <frost0> BlackDark, i guess, know that i know....i still don't get it :)
[10:40] <scguy318> realshiva: you dont need tahoma.ttf for steam, just do the reg patch as documented in Wine AppDb
[10:40] <scguy318> realshiva: just add some font substitute reg entry
[10:40] <shwouchk> tobi1canobe: wtf? it just worked
[10:40] <Invisionfree> o
[10:40] <_Bart_> BlackDark: I did a reboot
[10:40] <BlackDark> frost0 never played with that game
[10:40] <Flannel> shwouchk: Looks like it might be bug related, although the dm-mod should have fixed it.
[10:40] <tobi1canobe> shwouchk, wierd
[10:40] <frost0> BlackDark, huh
[10:40] <BlackDark> ask for details to the admin
[10:40] <realshiva> scguy318,  k i dont want to play, i want to compilate MagicQ ^^

[10:42] <shwouchk> tobi1canobe: do I need to do anything to have it available every boot, or will it work?
[10:43] <dispraekailo> Hello.  My hard drive recently crashed, and I had to reinstall ubuntu on a sata hdd; The only disk I had available was edgy, so I followed the instructions on http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2007/03/upgrade-ubuntu-610-edgy-eft-to-ubuntu.html to upgrade to feisty as I did with my last install, via console...
[10:43] <tobi1canobe> shwouchk, most likely the startup scripts will find it for you. the fedora ones do anyhow
[10:43] <dispraekailo> However, after logging in with gdm, the desktop does not load.. the system has not frozen, in that I can still move the mouse, but I cannot access other tty's either.
[10:43] <chiefinnovator> What's the best virtualization software for Ubuntu?
[10:43] <realshiva> scguy318, is allready the newest version
[10:43] <dispraekailo> How might I repair this install?
[10:43] <chiefinnovator> What's the best virtualization software for Ubuntu?  Vmware, virtualbox, Xen, or other?
[10:44] <nikom1> I just spent a minute figuring why it wouldn't copy tahoma.ttf
[10:44] <chief> !best | chiefinnovator
[10:44] <ubotu> chiefinnovator: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[10:44] <nikom1> It's because it wasn't tahoma.ttf, it was Tahoma.ttf.... grr @ case-sensitivity
[10:44] <nikom1> I'll have to get used to that
[10:44] <MrObvious> chiefinnovator: vmware might work okay for you.
[10:44] <MrObvious> chiefinnovator: Or qEMU
[10:44] <BlackDark> dispraekailo: apt-get -f install
[10:44] <dispraekailo> I did that.
[10:44] <BlackDark> then apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:45] <BlackDark> to finish the isntall
[10:45] <dispraekailo> again? I've done those twice already.

[10:46] <realshiva> scguy318, do you have a link  to the source?
[10:46] <nikom1> Aight, I added tahoma.tff, it doesn't look like crap anymore, but I still haven't figured out how to fix the "multiple Steam.exe's running" thing
[10:46] <mike6546> how do you open a process with high priority?
[10:46] <BlackDark> _Bart_:  what did you do ? using the tool restricted drivers install ?
[10:46] <booster> b0uncer  .  ...i installed the OS then i put the disk back in after i rebooted and i installed the package i needed to run the ndiswrapper
[10:46] <erUSUL> mike6546: man nice
[10:46] <the_padawan> hello all, regarding the lowlatency kernel which i find useful for midi editing, is there any disadvantage to the lowlatency kernel? why is there a non-lowlatency kernel?
[10:46] <BBking> Mr0bvious, what was the channel?
[10:46] <_Bart_> BlackDark: No I did it the old way because its kubuntu
[10:46] <scguy318> nikom1: wineserver -k?
[10:47] <scguy318> nikom1: kills all Wine processes
[10:47] <nikom1> scguy, give me a second
[10:47] <MrObvious> BBking: Did it work?
[10:47] <MrObvious> BBking: #eocf
[10:47] <BlackDark> did you install the restricted drivers packages ?
[10:47] <Ubu7> can anyone help me out ? cannot start X - I can't set xauth entries...
[10:47] <BlackDark> for your kernel
[10:47] <nikom1> OH wait
[10:47] <scguy318> mike: renice it?
[10:47] <nikom1> I know what it is
[10:47] <uptownben> Anyone seen ubuntu lock up after being idle
[10:47] <BaD_CrC> no
[10:47] <nikom1> It's the stop at 26% updating bug
[10:47] <Flannel> the_padawan: lowlatency gives priority (read: most of the processor) to the application you're using.  You really can't multiprocess worth much with it.  Certainly not with multiple users
[10:47] <nikom1> I'll check how to fix it
[10:47] <scguy318> nikom1: you can try the older EXE installer
[10:48] <scguy318> mike: increasing priority with renice can only be done as super-user
[10:48] <scguy318> mike: so sudo
[10:48] <nikom1> I'm trying wine steamTmp.exe SelfUpdate "Steam.exe" 14

[10:49] <scguy318> nikom1: try the older Steam installer, clean out the .wine directory
[10:49] <scguy318> nikom1: then just use the EXE installer
[10:49] <nikom1> Where can I find the old one?
[10:49] <scguy318> nikom1: instead of the MSI
[10:49] <scguy318> nikom1: moment
[10:49] <nikom1> k

[10:50] <mike6546> great
[10:50] <Flannel> the_padawan: where do you see the lag?
[10:50] <nikom1> Looks like it's going to complete it
[10:50] <scguy318> ipx1: i have a PCMCIA card that works with ndiswrapper
[10:50] <nikom1> Thanks scguy and mike
[10:50] <scguy318> ipx1: Linksys, forgot wut model tho
[10:50] <the_padawan> Flannel, i guess that might be part of the problem, i'm using guitar pro 5 with wine
[10:50] <mike6546> np
[10:50] <ipx1> scguy310:  is your card WPC54GS ?
[10:50] <scguy318> ipx1: lemme see
[10:51] <scguy318> ipx1: WPC54G v1.2
[10:51] <scguy318> ipx1: ndiswrapper works 4 me
[10:51] <shwouchk> I have a linux (ubuntu) server which is connected to the net via 1 nic, and has another one which is currently unused. I would like for a second machine to connect to the network via the available and get an IP from on the network, and also have the original server connectable from the network. how can that be acheived? (The docs I read regarding bridges didn't accomodate for that)
[10:51] <Flannel> the_padawan: oh, wow.  Thats... well, I have no idea.  Sounds complicated though.  And its likely that wine is causing some issues.  Why don't you try a native midi sequencer, and see how that goes.
[10:52] <the_padawan> Flannel, will do, any recommendations?
[10:52] <mindframe-> what options would be wise when using cp for complete filesystem backup?
[10:52] <chiefinnovator> Process question.  Is it bad to kill a process?  For example I have a Python script, and I want to handle certain regular errors in it by automatically killing it and relaunching it.  Is that an ok thing to do?
[10:52] <bulmer> shwouchk: come again?
[10:52] <Invisionfree> Does installing sun-java6-jre mean website applets will load?
[10:52] <Flannel> the_padawan: if you're just crunching stuff, procuding a .midi file from ... uh, the GUI thing, you don't need the -lowlatency.  It's designed for live streaming (where lag will show) or live capture.  If you're just number crunching, lag isn't an issue
[10:52] <ipx1> scguy318: (sorry didn't look at screen up close): I attempted to load ndiswrapper and it didn't work.  If you don't mind, what steps did you take?
[10:52] <chiefinnovator> Or would it cause memory problems, or affect system stability?
[10:53] <astro76> Invisionfree, you'll also need sun-java6-plugin
[10:53] <Invisionfree> Thanks astro76
[10:53] <bulmer> chiefinnovator: a script is designed to run once..so it should be okay
[10:53] <e\ectro_> with the fglrx driver, is anyone able to get beryl 2.1 working correctly?

[10:53] <shwouchk> bulmer: I have a home network. I have a server connected to it. I want to have another machine connected to the server via a second nic and to get an IP on my home network. (and still have the server accessible)
[10:53] <nikom1> updating platform files
[10:53] <chiefinnovator> bulmer, even if I kill it while it's still running?  I'd basically be killing the Python interpreter.
[10:53] <scguy318> ipx1: you have to remember to blacklist the alternate driver module
[10:53] <bulmer> shwouchk: shwouchk you want your server acting as router?
[10:53] <Jabu> I recieve an error about missing permissions if i run the command iptables -L      .... Can somebody give me a hint
[10:54] <ipx1> scguy318: ?
[10:54] <Flannel> shwouchk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing?highlight=%28Sharing%29
[10:54] <bulmer> chiefinnovator: you can kill it
[10:54] <nikom1> is there a way to make a shortcut on Desktop that could first do a terminal command and then another?
[10:54] <mordaunt> how do you list all the files installed by a package?
[10:54] <bulmer> chiefinnovator: interpreters are not daemons
[10:54] <mordaunt> from the command line
[10:54] <shwouchk> bum
[10:54] <Flannel> nikom1: && or ; will concat two commands (so will ||)
[10:54] <the_padawan> Flannel, it's just annoying when i'm listening back to what i've written to hear breaks in the music
[10:54] <shwouchk> bulmer: yes. but to also have it's own IP.
[10:54] <scguy318> ipx1: i added blacklist bcm43xx to the end of my /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[10:54] <astro76> mordaunt, dpkg -L <packagename>
[10:55] <Flannel> the_padawan: Have you tried the non-lowlatency kernel?
[10:55] <scguy318> ipx1: because ndiswrapper -l as alternate driver that conflicts with ndiswrapper
[10:55] <the_padawan> yeah, it was much worse
[10:55] <mordaunt> astro76: thanks
[10:55] <scguy318> ipx1: shows it
[10:55] <the_padawan> Flannel, yeah, it was much worse
[10:55] <nikom1> Flannel, how do I go on actually making something that can run a command in terminal?
[10:55] <ipx1> scguy318:  ok I will give that a shot.
[10:55] <shwouchk> Flannel: thanks, taking a look
[10:55] <bulmer> shwouchk: the other client can have a fix or if you run a dhcp server can have different ip on same subnet as the server
[10:55] <ipx1> scguy318:  thanks.
[10:55] <Flannel> nikom1: The command you'll put in for the shortcut doohickey, will be whatever you want it to run
[10:56] <Alagwin> I'm having a problem with Lilo on boot giving me L 99 99 99 99 99
[10:56] <Alagwin> Any ideas?
[10:56] <scguy318> ipx1: to check if your wireless card driver has loaded properly, ndiswrapper -l
[10:56] <nikom1> Oh wait, I just right-clicked desktop and it had a thing that's directly translated into English: "Create Starter"
[10:56] <nikom1> or something like that
[10:56] <nikom1> I'll just use that
[10:56] <Flannel> the_padawan: Id try a native program.  I have no idea what they are, I'd ask in #ubuntustudio.  They may be able to give you more details on -lowlat with wine as well.
[10:56] <ipx1> scguy318:  ok -- checking now....
[10:57] <the_padawan> Flannel, thanks a lot man, will look into it
[10:57] <Red_linuxprobs> can someone help me pls to create a working network bridge? German would be nice...

[10:57] <MrObvious> Err
[10:57] <shwouchk> bulmer: I want it to have a different IP on the same subnet as a server. and of course also be connectable.
[10:58] <bulmer> shwouchk: sure it is possible

[10:58] <bruenig> was that for me?
[10:58] <MrObvious> bruenig: Kinda :p. I saw PriceChild do it earlier.
[10:59] <JerKB> can someone help me with a VNC question?  The vnc server is running and I can connect to it from computers on the local network using the internal network IP (192.168.15.4) but cannot connect from outside the network (using external IP), it returns "connection refused."  Ports 5500, 5800, and 5900 are forwarded tcp and udp and still doesn't seem to make a difference.
[10:59] <bruenig> were you looking for !nickspam
[10:59] <MrObvious> But I think he used a different factoid.
[10:59] <bruenig> that hardly qualifies as nickspam though
[10:59] <png> after suspend, my network-manager didnt work. so ive restarted dbus  but now there is no sound. try to reboot but again no sound.  before suspend everything was perfect.
[10:59] <MrObvious> JerKB: Connect to the outside IP.
[10:59] <MrObvious> bruenig: I"m messing with you :p.
[10:59] <PupUser5cbd42> jp
[11:00] <MrObvious> JerKB: You might not have the ports forwarded correctly.
[11:00] <Jabu> JerKB: if it is a router maybe it has an additional firewall interface
[11:00] <nikom1> My starter thingy refuses to work
[11:00] <tapas> in firefox youtube flashvideos don't show here.
[11:00] <nikom1> I got cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Ohjelmatiedostot/Steam/; wine Steam.exe on the command to be executed thing but it won't work
[11:00] <shwouchk> bulmer: any pointers to info on how to do it?
[11:00] <tapas> the sound plays but the screen stays white [the player isn't shown]

[11:00] <MrObvious> JerKB: For example my Linksys requires my computers to be a static IP to do a port forward to them or DMZ.
[11:00] <JerKB>  From a computer outside the network I've tried connecting to the external IP (69.252.194.214:0) it returns "connection refused."  ports are forwarded.
[11:00] <nikom1> It says the starting cd failed
[11:01] <bulmer> shwouchk: yes, you want the client have fix ip?
[11:01] <MrObvious> nikom1: Is the CD mounted?
[11:01] <JerKB> My Internal IP is static, and this computer is DMZ host
[11:01] <nikom1> cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Ohjelmatiedostot/Steam/; wine Steam.exe starting failed no such file or directory
[11:01] <nikom1> It's not a CD
[11:01] <MrObvious> Nevermind.
[11:01] <tapas> bruenig: flashplugin-nonfree is already the newest version.
[11:01] <Jabu> JerKB: routers are evil
[11:01] <MrObvious> nikom1: Try cd ~/.wine...... && wine Steam.exe
[11:01] <nickrud> JerKB: could you isp be doing the blocking? (it blocks 25 here)
[11:01] <shwouchk> bulmer: no. I want it to get IPs from dhcp
[11:01] <bruenig> tapas, do you have gnash or flashplayer-mozplugin or whatever it is installed as well
[11:01] <png> after suspend, my network-manager didnt work. so ive restarted dbus  but now there is no sound. try to reboot but again no sound.  before suspend everything was perfect.
[11:01] <MrObvious> JerKB: Okay do only a port forward OR DMZ, not both.
[11:01] <tapas> bruenig: i'll check

[11:02] <Jabu> 69.252....
[11:03] <ubuntujavahelp> bruenig: install java
[11:03] <bruenig> ubuntujavahelp, ok that's not java, its sun-java6-jre

[11:04] <MrObvious> JerKB: It works :D
[11:04] <nikom1> Anyone that knows how to launch a program with a launcher?
[11:04] <MrObvious> JerKB: It asked me to type a password.

[11:04] <Nevermind> ok i'm used to xubuntu, but with ubuntu can you just put into terminal sudo app-get xmodmap
[11:04] <bulmer> shwouchk: then you have to NAT and enable ip_forward on that server too
[11:04] <Ubu7> can't start x
[11:04] <nickrud> ubuntujavahelp: you'll want the sun-java6-plugin as well , for firefox

[11:05] <shwouchk> bulmer: aha
[11:05] <Jabu> Someone here using moblock?
[11:05] <nikom1> cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Ohjelmatiedostot/Steam/; wine Steam.exe runs fine in Terminal but not with launcher
[11:05] <Ubu7> well I still have a problem....anyone ?
[11:05] <nickrud> ubuntujavahelp: check the repos you have enabled with apps->add/remove->preferences
[11:06] <nickrud> nikom1: write a small script that does that, put it in ~/bin and use the launcher to call that
[11:06] <shwouchk> bulmer: will the downstream machine be reachable via it's IP?
[11:06] <ticked> newbie question of the day, actually i already kinda asked this one, and pretty much know the answer i just wanna ask again incase i mess stuff up, i have the AMD-64 version on but wanna put the i386 on, if i just install and let it repartition the drive, will it over write the grub on the harddisk with xp on it. ubuntu lives on a second harddisk
[11:06] <bulmer> shwouchk: yes
[11:07] <nikom1> Write a small script? You mean cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Ohjelmatiedostot/Steam/; wine Steam.exe into one of those nice UNIX files that don't have an extension?
[11:07] <nikom1> Wait
[11:07] <nikom1> forget it
[11:07] <mauri> someone can elp me with my webcam
[11:07] <nikom1> WINE was nice enough to create an icon for me

[11:07] <nickrud> nikom1: lol
[11:07] <nikom1> I just didn't notice because I have IRC on fullscreen D:

[11:16] <xir2> hi, i have a problem with audio playback of an .mp4 file in vlc under ubuntu
[11:17] <shwouchk> bulmer: I found a guide for that.. the hard part is passing dhcp through.. do I need to do anything else to have it reachable or will the dhcp forwarding acheive that?
[11:17] <xir2> sound is full of hisses
[11:17] <spanks> larryone: there is one thing im curious about.  the default root during ubuntu installation won't work.  when i attempt to continue installation is says a root is not defined

[11:17] <ignasietax> hi
[11:17] <scguy318> timholum: sudo apt-get remove kde4base-data?

[11:17] <Jabu> LinuxLlama: YAY he is back
[11:17] <spanks> could this be the problem
[11:18] <bulmer> shwouchk: you have to install a dhcpd on the server
[11:18] <LinuxLlama> sorry. i had an urge to do that. i didnt need help...
[11:18] <larryone> spanks, I'm not quite sure what you mean

[11:19] <ice109> erUSUL i saw statistical analysis under tools before but now i don't see it

[11:21] <vlt> smfenn: Yes, but not htat one.
[11:21] <vlt> that*
[11:22] <Jabu> Is it personal?
[11:22] <shwouchk> bulmer: and?
[11:22] <larryone> smfenn, if it's technical and related to ubuntu then ask away
[11:22] <sacamano> hey, got a question, when i load a video, it sometimes has a green bar across the top of the video..usually only for divx and stuff
[11:22] <cappiz> someone here happend to have a working xorg.conf with 1600x1200 setup and fglrx ? :)
[11:22] <larryone> sacamano, which player?
[11:22] <bulmer> shwouchk: let me ask you..did you read that tutorial yet?
[11:22] <corpcomp> A ubuntu virgin here. How do I change or get a list of repositories for apt from the command line?
[11:23] <sacamano> larryone, it happens under VLC, Gxine, Totem, Mplayer, etc.
[11:23] <Pici> corpcomp: /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:23] <shwouchk> bulmer: I read it briefly and am following it now
[11:23] <qaldune> corpcomp edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:23] <larryone> corpcomp, cat /etc/atp/sources.list
[11:23] <Jordan_U> For gdm there is an option to set a "FailsafeXServer" script, does anyone here know of any example of such a script? ( For reference, doesn't matter what it does as long as it works at doing something )?
[11:23] <nickrud> cappiz, have you been to the fixres page yet?
[11:23] <vlt> corpcomp: aptitude is fine
[11:23] <bulmer> shwouchk: read it thoroughly please before asking again..let it absorb a bit
[11:23] <larryone> sacamano, could be your driver for your card
[11:23] <nikom2> and now I wait 10-15 mins when Ubuntu copies my GCF's from my Windows to my WINE Steam installation
[11:23] <shwouchk> bulmer: ok..
[11:24] <larryone> look for current version and upsdate?
[11:24] <cappiz> nickrud, no... :) got a link? i dont have a xorg.conf atm :S managed to delete it
[11:24] <corpcomp> OK, well I found the file, but how do I find a list of repositoies, the NZ repository is down and I want to change it.
[11:24] <smfenn> heh, sorry. I'm having a problem getting my xserver to work. I've tried most of the things suggested in the forums, but they haven't helped much
[11:24] <vlt> corpcomp: Oh, sorry, list of repos ... that's in /etc/apt/sources.lst
[11:24] <sacamano> hmm larryone, do you know how to figure out that?
[11:25] <larryone> sacamano, what video card?
[11:25] <smfenn> all i can get at the moment is a garbled bright orange ubuntu desktop
[11:25] <sacamano> ATI X300 i think
[11:25] <dispraekailo> I've done apt-get dist-upgrade and install -f 3-4 times now, and there is nothing else left to upgrade to the latest version of feisty while switching over from edgy, however whenever I try to log into gnome (or even xfce, which I just installed), it doesn't load anything after logging in... the screen is just blank with a <operable> cursor.
[11:25] <Jordan_U> cappiz, If it was the one made by Ubuntu ( i.e. you havn't edited it manually ) run "sudo debxconfig" to get it back
[11:25] <dispraekailo> How might I fix loading gnome or xfce?
[11:25] <cappiz> k
[11:25] <scottb> Hi - can someone help me get setup using a santa rosa chipset and a bios that doesn't support SATA-compatibility mode. Do I need alternate install cd
[11:25] <scottb> ?
[11:26] <cappiz> but still i want the fixres
[11:26] <cappiz> :)
[11:26] <Jordan_U> For gdm there is an option to set a "FailsafeXServer" script, does anyone here know of any example of such a script? ( For reference, doesn't matter what it does as long as it works at doing something )?

[11:26] <vlt> corpcomp: You can look for repositories in the ubuntu wiki. Browsers for cmd line are "links" "elinks" "lynx" ...
[11:26] <larryone> sacamano, I'd be going for google at this stage if no-one else in here has the answer up their sleeves
[11:26] <nickrud> cappiz: just above ;)
[11:26] <cappiz> thanks :)
[11:26] <mauri> someone can elp me with my webcam
[11:26] <larryone> sorry I couldnt be of more help
[11:26] <cappiz> btw. debxconfig doesnt work :)
[11:26] <christoffernors> I have a clean installed ubuntu on my IBM THINKPAD T42. For some reason i lost the OSD's when changing volume, lcd brightness and so on.. How to get it back?
[11:27] <nickrud> cappiz: then try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:27] <Pici> christoffernors: Read the guide for your laptop on http
 The source.list file only contains information about the nz repos, where can I find a list of alternate repos so I can change it?
[11:27] <christoffernors> Pici: ??
[11:27] <FFForever> what is the max # of files mv can move?
[11:27] <Pici> christoffernors: er, http://www.thinkwiki.org, they have alot of information about linux on thinkpads
[11:27] <larryone> FFForever, probably 256
[11:27] <bruenig> corpcomp, the nz repos are the same as the other repos
[11:27] <larryone> or something
[11:27] <FFForever> why 256?
[11:27] <marcel> how can I change booting sequence with XP being first?
[11:28] <larryone> FFForever, man mv
[11:28] <astro76> FFForever, there's no limit, but there's a limit on the length of a command line. What are you doing?
[11:28] <triptec> is there anyone here that have installed rtorrent from source???
[11:28] <Pici> FFForever: unlimited
[11:28] <christoffernors> i lost it after i installed the tpb package..
[11:28] <SlimeyPete> marcel: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:28] <SlimeyPete> !grub
[11:28] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[11:28] <FFForever> mv won't move 22k of files....
[11:28] <FFForever> said the list was to long...
[11:28] <anto9us> FFForever: I don't think there is one, if it's limited at all then it would probably be limited by memory
[11:28] <SlimeyPete> mv is limited, as is cp. Not sure of the numbers but we have trouble with it at work.
[11:28] <astro76> FFForever, are you using find or something?
[11:28] <SlimeyPete> ls is also limited.
[11:29] <larryone> FFForever, where from where to? what file system?
[11:29] <Pici> FFForever: How are you trying to move them?
[11:29] <marcel> what do I change in menu.lst?
[11:29] <bruenig> SlimeyPete, you can use xargs to get around problems with mv and cp
[11:29] <FFForever> mv ./fonts/*.ttf ../../.fonts/
[11:29] <larryone> marcel: near the bottom of the  file
[11:29] <bruenig> SlimeyPete, I assume you mean that there are too many files and so it messes up or some such
[11:29] <SlimeyPete> yeah
[11:30] <larryone> marcel, there is a seperator which prints the "Other Opersting Systems" thing
[11:30] <larryone> marcel, move everything below this line to the place above the linux boot config stuff
[11:30] <astro76> FFForever, BASH expands the *, and the command line becomes too long, you can use find with xargs
[11:30] <rathel> Hi!
[11:31] <larryone> then pastebin your file and send me the link so I can look at ti
[11:31] <FFForever> xargs?
[11:31] <christoffernors> THIS SUCKS!!!!
[11:31] <mordaunt> astro76: xargs suck
[11:31] <n-iCe> Hi i installed ubuntu server how can i connect it to the internet?
[11:31] <Pici> christoffernors: calm down.
[11:31] <nikom2> Trying to run xfire installation with WINE gives me an error that I don't have admin rights
[11:31] <Pici> nikom2: Ask about it in #winehq
[11:31] <nikom2> gonna try something I've been developing in my mind for the last few mins
[11:32] <Flannel> n-iCe: Assuming its plugged in, to everything, it's already connceted.
[11:32] <scguy318> nikom2: set winecfg WIndows version to Windows 98
[11:32] <larryone> christoffernors, take it easy - it's an odd problem that relates to your particular hardware platform
[11:32] <larryone> google might give you an answer quicker then this channel
[11:32] <scguy318> nikom2: i will warn you, Xfire user list appears corrupted in Wine
[11:32] <christoffernors> i have been googling for hours
[11:32] <n-iCe> Flannel yeah wireless
[11:33] <timholum> scguy318: thanks for the help, i got it fixed
[11:33] <rathel> How would I be able to disable/enable the screensaver on mplayer start/close in a script?
[11:33] <Flannel> n-iCe: Ah.  Wireless.  Why would you run a server on wireless?  Anyway...
[11:33] <cornell> What would be the easiest way to install 32-bit Firefox on a feisty amd64 installation?
[11:33] <larryone> can I put a grub MBR on a CD and boot it?
[11:33] <Flannel> !wifi | n-iCe
[11:33] <ubotu> n-iCe: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:34] <nikom2> Start xfire when WIndows starts... yeah that's gonna be a problem :P
[11:34] <Pici> !chroot | cornell
[11:34] <ubotu> cornell: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[11:34] <nikom2> hehe
[11:34] <timholum> i had to dpkg -f --force-all 4 different packages, o well :) they where all kde packages and i use gnome :)
[11:34] <LinAsH> rathel, If you use KDE, kpowersave can do that
[11:34] <cornell> Thanks Pici
[11:34] <stdin> rathel: mplayer can take a -stop-xscreensaver option to do that
[11:34] <marcel> so do I change TITLE to WIndows XP ?
[11:34] <n-iCe> Flannel how is the command to know if is detecting it? ipconfig ?
[11:35] <Flannel> n-iCe: ifconfig might be what youre looking for
[11:35] <rathel> stdin, really? I didn't see that. Ima go look for the option thanks for the tip.
[11:35] <askand> I really dont understand how to make an ftpserver..
[11:35] <riaal_> okey, what is the quickest way to set up and manage an ftp server?
[11:36] <larryone> marcel, pastebin your file
[11:36] <n-iCe> Flannel and how can I configurate it, my wireless isn't in the site
[11:36] <larryone> and send me the link
[11:36] <marcel> how do I paste bin?
[11:36] <scguy318> !pastebin | marcel
[11:36] <ubotu> marcel: 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)
[11:36] <mordaunt> riaal_: you can install windows xp and put it on the internet without a firewall.. your ftp server will be installed in minutes!
[11:36] <Flannel> n-iCe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo
[11:36] <christoffernors> Its always the bloody same thing. One problem gets solved.. Another pops up!!
[11:37] <nikom2> I need a shortcut to wineserver -k lol
[11:37] <rathel> stdin, would that work with gnome-screensaver?
[11:37] <riaal_> mordaunt: do you really find that funny? :S
[11:37] <Usrl_> stupid question: what's the command to go up one directory?
[11:37] <nikom2> usrl cd
[11:37] <Pici> Usrl_: cd ..
[11:37] <Usrl_> Pici: thanks
[11:37] <Karti> or cd ..
[11:37] <larryone> christoffernors, what's your biggest problem with ubuntu right now
[11:37] <larryone> ?
[11:37] <stdin> rathel: should do, if it respects the xscreensaver settings
[11:37] <mordaunt> riaal_: yes
[11:37] <n-iCe> Flannel isn't wireless card it's an usb , is the same?
[11:38] <christoffernors> there's several.. but right now im just mad at the whole OSD thing that has disappeared
[11:38] <rathel> stdin, Cool, thanks I'll try that out next time I watch video.
[11:38] <christoffernors> I was trying to get the external monitor stuff to work
[11:38] <Flannel> n-iCe: should be similar, I don't really know much about wifi
[11:38] <chamunks> i want to install vista on my windows partition but want to retain my ubuntu installation is there a way to reenable my grub loader post vista install?
[11:38] <christoffernors> installed the tpb package.. and baddabing.. no OSD anymore
[11:39] <Pici> !fixgrub | chamunks
[11:39] <ubotu> chamunks: 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
[11:39] <askand> Can someone help me understand ftpservers..I installed vsftpd and am able to connect to the ftpserver if I write my computers ip..but if my friend write the same ip it doesnt work..why?
[11:39] <chamunks> pici thanks
[11:39] <chamunks> Pici, thanks
[11:39] <qaldune> askand tell your friend to ping that ip
[11:39] <scguy318> askand: have to port forward, and use public IP
[11:39] <larryone> christoffernors, try uninstall that package
[11:39] <Pici> askand: Does the ip address that you gave out start with a 192 or a 10. ?
[11:40] <christoffernors> I did that.. Still the same problem
[11:40] <Adlai> If I've written a bunch of /dev/urandom with dd to a hard drive, but stopped it before the end, what do I need to do to try to recover data that wasn't lost?
[11:40] <Adlai> should I just fix the partition table and try to mount the partition?
[11:40] <christoffernors> It seems as something has been overwritten or something is now missing
[11:40] <larryone> christoffernors, it worked previously?
[11:40] <larryone> ok
[11:40] <JarG0n> I thought FSPOT had a backup server attached to Google?
[11:40] <JarG0n> server=service
[11:40] <christoffernors> larryone: Yeah.. thats the it
[11:41] <larryone> so it's a thinkpad
[11:41] <marcel> here is the address : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36833/
[11:41] <christoffernors> larryone: yup t42
[11:41] <larryone> has keys on they keyboard for adjusting the screen
[11:41] <george> this is killing me, what's a good cd image burning program (thats free, hehe)
[11:41] <christoffernors> larryone: yes
[11:41] <larryone> george, gnome baker
[11:41] <cweagans> can anyone help me with a PlaneShift error
[11:41] <nikom2> george, imgburn
[11:41] <Pici> Adlai: Just curious, why did you do that?
[11:41] <nikom2> well
[11:41] <Adlai> Pici: a bit tired and hung over and not really thinking
[11:42] <admin21t1n> can someone help me figure out why dns lookup isn't working?
[11:42] <nikom2> I was expecting you're on Windows because you could use Ubuntu's one on LInux
[11:42] <Adlai> it's not a big deal, the information isn't critical, I'd just like to try
[11:42] <christoffernors> larryone: you think you have an idea of what to do?
[11:42] <larryone> christoffernors, i'm think in g of where the keyboard mapping is stored
[11:42] <smfenn> I'm on a G4 mac with an ATI 128 rage graphics card and i'm having problems getting xserver to start.
[11:42] <larryone> but cant recall
[11:42] <Welshy> I still haven't been able to get ubuntu to run properly :/
[11:43] <Welshy> Err, run properly again.
[11:43] <codeshah> how do I check if mod_rewrite is enabled ?
[11:43] <cornell> Any comment on why feisty install wants to partition SCSI1 (0.0.0) (sda) - 40.0GB ATA ST340016A?
[11:43] <askand> Pici yes
[11:43] <Jordan_U> smfenn, Has it ever started on this comp?
[11:43] <Adlai> but does fixing the partition table sound like a sane way to attack this?
[11:43] <christoffernors> larryone: the keys are working properly.. im just missing the OSD when changing volume and stuff
[11:43] <Pici> askand: Those are "private" IP addresses that only exist within your home network.
[11:43] <cweagans> can anyone help me with some problems with PlaneShift?
[11:44] <Jordan_U> Adlai, I doubt that any of the data is still easily recoverable
[11:44] <askand> Pici: yeah..I though so too..I have never understood have to make it something els then "private"? :(
[11:44] <Adlai> darn
[11:44] <larryone> Welshy, is it booting?
[11:44] <marcel> how can I erase my posting from pastebin ?
[11:44] <Jordan_U> Adlai, How important is the data?
[11:45] <larryone> christoffernors, by OSD you mean...?
[11:45] <smfenn> jordan, i've managed to get a garbled bright orange ubuntu desktop using my current xorf.conf.
[11:45] <christoffernors> larryone: on screen display
[11:45] <larryone> on screen display?
[11:45] <larryone> aah
[11:45] <larryone> guessed
[11:45] <n3tury> Adlai , i just got here, but if you need recovery software go here http://www.grc.com/spinrite.htm
[11:45] <christoffernors> larryone: before there was a big sqaure showing the volume when i was changing it
[11:45] <doomie> Hello. While trying to apt-get upgrading my ubuntu (7.04 server), I'm getting a lot weird errors. The one that are prolly most important are: Perl lib version (5.00503) doesn't match executable version (5.008008) at /etc/perl/Config.pm line 7. and debconf: Perl may be unconfigured (DynaLoader object version 1.04 does not match $DynaLoader::VERSION 1.03 at /etc/perl/DynaLoader.pm line 80.. Do you have any idea what tha tmeans / how t
[11:45] <Jordan_U> smfenn, Using "vesa" or "ati" >
[11:45] <larryone> so do the keys actualy work? does the volume/brightness actually change?
[11:46] <Jordan_U> smfenn,  > == ? :)
[11:46] <Keule|On> hi there
[11:46] <Pici> askand: You need to figure out what your external IP is by using something like whatismyip.com  You also need to forward port 21 from your router to your computer
[11:46] <larryone> it just doesnt display the nice pretty graphics it once did?
[11:46] <thing> Anyone know how translations in launchpad are merged with translation directly in the apps itself?
[11:46] <smfenn> using fbdev, i don't have a vesa option on my ppc mac and ati didn't work.
[11:46] <Keule|On> i have a problem with the compiz.real its always on 100% ... how can i reset all the stuff?
[11:46] <larryone> Welshy, are you able to boot?
[11:46] <nikom2> Why does it say ^V when I try to paste into Terminal with ctrl+v?
[11:46] <christoffernors> larryone: yes i does.. im just missing the popups on the screen showing me what im doing
[11:46] <winbond> doomie, are upgrading 7.04 to what?
[11:46] <Keule|On> i have a problem with the compiz.real its always on 100% ... how can i reset all the stuff?
[11:47] <doomie> winbond I'm just upgrading some packages.
[11:47] <shwouchk> bulmer: ok I read it thoroughly and that's not what I need
[11:47] <christoffernors> larryone: exactly.. i like nice pretty graphicks :D
[11:47] <doomie> Sorry, I've formulated it wrong.
[11:47] <Yendor> my wireless network card is suddenly showing eth0 "no wireless extensions." when I attempt iwconfig... Why have I lost my wireless connection..what is wrong :S
[11:47] <Jordan_U> smfenn, What do you get when you just run "xinit" ? ( should be just an xterm ) Is it "garbled" also?
[11:47] <bulmer> shwouchk: what do you not need?
[11:47] <__ZiGgy__> Jordan
[11:47] <larryone> christoffernors, does stuff display when you change with the mouse on the gnome panel icon?
[11:47] <__ZiGgy__> whats up
[11:47] <Keule|On> i have a problem with the compiz.real its always on 100% ... how can i reset all the stuff?
[11:47] <dgjones> !repeat | Keule|On
[11:47] <ubotu> Keule|On: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:47] <smfenn> i haven't tried xinit
[11:47] <christoffernors> larryone: no.. dont think it did before either
[11:47] <askand> Pici: oh ok thanks.. If I use dhcp, is my external IP different each time?
[11:48] <Jordan_U> Yendor, Wireless cards are hardly ever labeled eth0, are you sure it isn't eth1 or something else?
[11:48] <smfenn> do i run that from the command line or is it a driver?
[11:48] <scguy318> askand: no
[11:48] <__ZiGgy__> its getting a little better for me i'm getting use to linux finley
[11:48] <smfenn> you'llhave to excuse my linux ignorance.
[11:48] <shwouchk> bulmer: what I found at least, described the ubuntu server as being a NAT router.
[11:48] <Jordan_U> smfenn, Stop X and run that command
[11:48] <Keule|On> its fine to get an reaction :)
[11:48] <Yendor> it could be Jordan yet I can only see only one eth..that is eth0 may I have lost eth1 somehow?
[11:49] <mauri> someone can elp me with my webcam
[11:49] <Keule|On> does anyone have this problem?
[11:49] <Jordan_U> For gdm there is an option to set a "FailsafeXServer" script, does anyone here know of any example of such a script? ( I just need it for reference, doesn't matter what it does as long as it works at doing something )
[11:49] <marcel> can anyone take a look at my booting sequence and help me change it  to XP first ? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36833/
[11:49] <Pici> askand: It might be, it depends on your ISP.  For example, I'm supposed to get a dhcp address from my ISP, but I've had the same one for the past 2 years.
[11:49] <winbond> doomie, do sudo apt-get update , then sudo apt-get install --fix-missing
[11:49] <Yendor> I used to work on wireless on my laptop then I rebooted and this happened
[11:49] <bulmer> shwouchk: what do you not need?
[11:49] <larryone> christoffernors, you know what package did that display stuff?
[11:49] <Jordan_U> marcel, Move it above the "Automagic Kernel" section
[11:50] <setite> hey can someone help me
[11:50] <askand> Pici: oh okej..nice..and forwarding port 21.. that I do in the router?
[11:50] <christoffernors> larryone: i'm affraid not.. it was just there after a clean install of ubuntu
[11:50] <Jordan_U> Yendor, I assume you are getting this info by running "iwconfig" ?
[11:50] <vreer> setite: ask...
[11:50] <Yendor> yes sir
[11:50] <setite> i ordered a dedicated rig, and im waiting for it, in the meantime i installed ubuntu-server on my spare pc.. i need help getting it set up
[11:50] <Sergemine> Hi guys, Does anyone know if the 6th Alfa release of Ubuntu was supposed to to be released on September 6th? If that is right, d'you know why there is a delay?
[11:51] <Pici> askand: Yes.
[11:51] <marcel> what part is supposed  to be moved  above?
[11:51] <Jordan_U> Sergemine, There will be no Alpha 6 release

[11:52] <setite> anyone... for now i installed it and then turned the rig on.. nothing else has been done on the rig.. trying to ssh into it
[11:52] <Jordan_U> smfenn, Sorry, run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[11:52] <discworld> !sound
[11:52] <nikom2> I can't get CSS to run thru WINE, it exits without an error
[11:52] <Pici> Sergemine: Read my link above for information why Tribe 6 is not being released.
[11:52] <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
[11:52] <setite> im using putty

[11:53] <Keule|On> is it possible to reset all the beryl or compiz stuff?
[11:53] <setite> Pici i suppose i made the mistake of assuming that is on by default
[11:53] <Jordan_U> Keule|On, apt-get --reinstall --purge any related packages
[11:53] <smfenn> ok, i've done that, but i no longer seem to have a command line to run the xinit command.
[11:54] <Pici> setite: Just install the package ssh, it will include the server and client.
[11:54] <vlt> Hello. I have "BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=YES" in /etc/default/bootlogd -- Where is the boot output logged to?
[11:54] <setite> k
[11:54] <Jordan_U> smfenn, press ctrl+alt+F1 ( may also need to press FN on macs )
[11:54] <doomie> winbond it's asking me whether I want to install packages. If I press "y", it's bringing alot of weird perl errors again.
[11:54] <smfenn> ah
[11:54] <Welshy> Does anybody have any idea why when I run my install of Ubuntu it gets stuck at the orange screen after the login/brown status box appear?
[11:55] <shwouchk> bulmer: didn't I describe what I do need to you in detail? it's not that it had stuff I didn't need - it didn't have stuff I NEED - having the machine connected to the server get an IP from the main router and be connectable by a discreet IP and also have the server connectable by it's own IP...
[11:55] <illovae> hello
[11:55] <Keule|On> Jordan_U: can you specify=
[11:55] <shwouchk> I have a linux (ubuntu) server which is connected to the net via 1 nic, and has another one which is currently unused. I would like for a second machine to connect to the network via the available and get an IP from on the network, and also have the original server connectable from the network. how can that be acheived? (The docs I read regarding bridges didn't accomodate for that)
[11:55] <marcus_> Excuse me. How does one rewrite xorg.conf?
[11:55] <gnuskool> shwouchk: maybe loog in boot log
[11:55] <Pici> marcus_: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:55] <shwouchk> gnuskool: what??
[11:56] <Welshy> How do I reset/reconfigure server x?
[11:56] <Pici> Welshy: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:56] <Yendor> Is there perhaps a way to rest the network configuration in kubuntu to default please?
[11:56] <nikom2> .... how do I substitute a space in a cd command?
[11:56] <marcus_> Pici: Thank you very much.
[11:56] <smfenn> ok when i run xinit, i get a black and white screen with a small white box in the corner with the command prompt.
[11:56] <Jordan_U> nikom2, Escape it with a \
[11:56] <Pici> nikom2: escape the space with a slash \
[11:56] <Xyhthyx> nikom2: By using a \ before each space.
[11:56] <gnuskool> shwouchk: maybe look in boot log
[11:56] <bulmer> shwouchk: okay, can you clarify what you meant by get ip from network..which network do you refer to? you realize there are two,  per the way you described?
[11:57] <shwouchk> gnuskool: what would I see there?
[11:57] <vlt> shwouchk: I thin that was for me
[11:57] <nikom2> thanks
[11:57] <drebs> hello
[11:57] <shwouchk> vl
[11:57] <shwouchk> vlt: aah, cool
[11:57] <vlt> gnuskool: What file is it? /var/log/boot
[11:57] <Sergemine> Pici, thank you very much! Great! just waht I needed to know. One other Q ten. I want to download a testing iso to test printer compatibility. What would be the best choice for me: downloading the Tride5 iso, or the daily snapshot? Are the daily snapshots usable? At least always bootable? May be a strange question, but I never tryed one.
[11:57] <vlt> ?
[11:57] <drebs> i am having trouble with usb in a sis motherboard and ubuntu 6.06, does anyone have a clue?
[11:57] <winbond> doomie, dont know, u must have messed something up? fix broken should be able to fix whatever was wrong
[11:57] <gnuskool> yeah
[11:57] <mauri> someone can elp me with my webcam
[11:57] <vlt> That file is empty
[11:57] <profoX`> What happened to the art.ubuntu.com website?
[11:58] <vlt> gnuskool: ^
[11:58] <Pici> Sergemine: The daily isos have been oversized lately. If you want to test the Tribe 5 iso might be the best.

[11:58] <Keule|On> is it possible to reset all the beryl or compiz stuff?
[11:59] <Jordan_U> smfenn, Good, then it is a Gnome problem rather than an X problem most likely, try running "gnome-session &"  in the xterm "the window with a command prompt"
[11:59] <Keule|On> Jordan_U: gave me a hint - but i dont know how to make it
[11:59] <profoX`> !art

[12:00] <mochaRHW> Hello, anyone in here use Ubuntu with a radio scanner such as the Pro 92?
[12:00] <Yendor> My wireless network card is suddenly showing eth0 "no wireless extensions." when I attempt "iwconfig"... I lost my wireless connection, can you help me please?
[12:00] <png> i ve no sound after suspend. (ibm r50 laptop). any ideas?
[12:00] <drebs> mochaRHW: what's a radio scanner?
[12:01] <winbond> doomie, try to enable multiverse if u havent , then redo the commands
[12:01] <gnuskool> shwouchk: var/log/messages ?
[12:01] <smfenn> ok, i'm run the gnome-session command and have arrived back at the garbled orange desktop.
[12:01] <mochaRHW> A scanner, like a VHF-UHF radio
[12:01] <shwouchk> gnuskool: not me
[12:01] <mochaRHW> like a police/fire scanner
[12:01] <Jordan_U> smfenn, Good, then it is a Gnome problem rather than an X problem most likely, try running "gnome-session &"  in the xterm ("the window with a command prompt")
[12:01] <gnuskool> vit: var/log/messages ?
[12:02] <mochaRHW> I'm asking because I am having problems interfacing mine with a programming utility called tk92
[12:02] <Jordan_U> smfenn, Good, then it is a Gnome problem rather than an X problem most likely, try running "gnome-session &"  in the xterm ("the window with a command prompt") (sorry if you have seen this multiple times, my wireless keeps disconnecting so I am not sure if it got through the other times )
[12:02] <mr_H> hello, what repository do i need to add, so i can have gnash 0.8.1 ?
[12:02] <MikeTheC> Hello all...
[12:02] <Cailen> hey i was just wondering if anyone knows if there is an active sync for linux?
[12:02] <Cailen> or some equivalent
[12:02] <Sergemine> Pici, may I ask you once again. The problem I am having is that the printer-driver-deb-package that contains my printer's driver is very old in Feisty - December 2006, the Gusty deb-package of the driver is MUCH newer - August 2007/ IS THERE A WAY TO FORCE  dpkg / or apt-get to instal the newer incompatible with this release version???
[12:02] <booster> can anyone in here tell what i got to do to update ndiswrapper from 1.22 to1.47 ??
[12:02] <shwouchk> bulmer: ok, Ill be as clear as is physically possible. I have a router, A connected to the Internet and serving IPs to network AA. I have a server, B connected to network AA via nic 1. Server B has it's own IP and can be reached from other machines in the network. I have a computer, C which I would like to also have an IP in network AA, and be reachable, as well as reach the net. C needs to get an IP via dhcp. The only possible way to have C
[12:02] <shwouchk> connect to network AA is via nic 2 on Server B. I would like to know how to acheive that goal.
[12:02] <smfenn> jordan, i've run the gnome-session command and i've come back to my original garbled orange desktop
[12:03] <riaal_> How do I deny a user fome loging in true SSH?
[12:03] <booster> can anyone in here tell what i got to do to update ndiswrapper from 1.22 to1.47 ??
[12:03] <GoodHabit> Hello. Is it possible to view UFS or UFS-2 under ubuntu?
[12:03] <discworld> how do I record sound in ubuntu? the GSR doesn't work :<
[12:04] <Jordan_U> GoodHabit, I don't think so
[12:04] <Cailen> can anyone tell me if where i can find an equivalent active sync for ubuntu if there is one?
[12:04] <bulmer> shwouchk: thats more better, clearer and specifics
[12:04] <Keule|On> is it possible to reset all the beryl or compiz stuff?
