[12:04] <bascule> amidaniel: you might also need to 'sudo tune2fs -c 0 /dev/hd?'
[12:04] <bascule> if it is ext2,3
[12:05] <unperson> gnewsensival:  Ypu can check the md5 hash of the ISO against those from the Ubuntu.com site.
[12:05] <unperson> I can't say  where exactly you'd find them.
[12:06] <unperson> (of  course, BT will already check things against what the tracker says)
[12:06] <bascule> unperson: they are in the download dir of the ISOs on servers
[12:06] <A2t3c13> couple of quick command questions if i may

[12:08] <bascule> kemik: well if you deleted a bunch of stuff might still show full until you flush the buffers 'sync' does this
[12:08] <bascule> it's a long shot
[12:08] <Mez> hmmles, can anyone paste me an example of their xorg.conf from feisty/edgy?
[12:08] <kemik> bascule: i've rebooted aswell :X

[12:09] <Ashbringer> Hello, I lost power recently and now among other things, dpkg seems broken. There's a large amount of gibberish in my available file, and dpkg says it can't parse it. Is there anything I could do?
[12:09] <Mez> Asuka, thats not answering my question.. why would I be asking for an example of somenoe else's xorg.conf from feisdty/edgy if I had one of my own ?

[12:11] <A2t3c13> this was the how to i used www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-tor-with-vidalia-gui-on-ubuntu.html but i dont even care if i get it to work anymore id be happy just going back yo the way it was
[12:11] <Kl4m> Is totem xine-based
[12:11] <kemik> bascule: erh, im a fool.. should have done fsck /dev/hdc1 ofcourse.. the partition ;D

[12:12] <Mez> Kl4m, I want one so I know what to put in my modyules section as it seems that my Xine playback istn working due to that not being set up in gutsy)
[12:12] <bascule> kemik: oh yeah, missed that myself, I forced a format on a drive like that once, lost all the data of course ... :)
[12:12] <kemik> :X
[12:12] <Mez> and Asuka thanks, just telling em to check query will do ;)
[12:12] <Sir_Sidd> How do you get Ktorrent to run in the backround even if the user logs out of the system?
[12:12] <kemik> 12 or so years ago i accidentally used FDISK on the wrong partition... :C
[12:12] <bascule> lol, so easy to do
[12:13] <kemik> specially if you're doing it late@night
[12:13] <pike_> kemik: bet you've never overwritten your partition with /dev/urandom before ;p
[12:13] <pike_> that sucked
[12:13] <kemik> pike_: well, not never done that.. guess you have :X
[12:13] <bascule> yeah or you are sure the comps knackered and you know everything, i do it all the time :)
[12:13] <A2t3c13> i einstalled TOR with videlia off a tutorial i found that seemed nice but it didnt take and weirder still is some other junk poped up i never heard off in my development"Qt 4 designer, assustant and linguist
[12:14] <A2t3c13> bascule: were you helping me?
[12:14] <bascule> A2t3c13: they are ok, just mwans you installed Qt stuff, probably via a kde app
[12:14] <bascule> A2t3c13: I don't kow whats gone wrong
[12:15] <A2t3c13> www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-tor-with-vidalia-gui-on-ubuntu.html
[12:15] <bascule> yeah but is your machine now unfunctional?
[12:15] <A2t3c13> i dumped the first part in and never made it past
[12:15] <tarelerulz> can you use the ubuntu installer cd to redo the mast boot record with out have to reinstall stuff
[12:15] <kynes> about my earlier question, deleting .gconf folder from user's home is sufficient to have Mint's custom GUI in your account
[12:15] <A2t3c13> look cant i go back to a restore point somehow?
[12:16] <bascule> tarelerulz: yeha grub-install /dev/hda or whatever
[12:16] <bascule> A2t3c13: nah no restore points
[12:16] <Pici> A2t3c13: Ubuntu does not have restore points.
[12:16] <Asuka> when trying to install guild wars I get a million fix me errors
[12:16] <A2t3c13> are you kidding?
[12:16] <Asuka> i havent found anything in appdb
[12:16] <tarelerulz> Well, that see ubuntu install and windows? so I don't have to config that all again
[12:17] <Pici> A2t3c13: I don't kid.
[12:17] <slug> hello
[12:17] <slug> i'm having a problem with the livecd
[12:17] <A2t3c13> i looked in symantes and videlia isnt even on my installed programs ?
[12:18] <yakov> night
[12:18] <A2t3c13> sorry synaptic
[12:18] <bascule> A2t3c13: videla won't be, you installed from source
[12:18] <xmOD> i have 2 hard drives.. HDD A on which ubuntu edgy is installed and HDD B on which windows is installed... now the problem is that when i switch on the comp the linux bootloader comes into play shows me if i want to start windows or linux... now what i want to do is that i wanna uninstall linux from HDD A and make it so that even when both drives are connected windows starts by default which mean that i want to use HDD A and B both for windows... how do i do 
[12:18] <bascule> synaptic can only track what it installed, go back to source dir and try make uninstall
[12:18] <A2t3c13> so how do i just get rid of the 128MB it took to put it all in to begin with?
[12:19] <rathel> How do you make a file inaccessible to all users except for when you sudo? what chmod would I use?
[12:19] <bascule> xmOD: you need an XP disc go to recovery consle from booting it and say 'fixmbr'
[12:19] <snooo> hi
[12:19] <arkanes> you would have had to install a bunch of -dev packages in order to build that, you can remove all those, make uninstall, and delete the tree that you extracted it from
[12:19] <fujin_> rathel, own it root:root, mod 700 or similar
[12:19] <arkanes> installing from source when you're new enough to Ubuntu (or Linux) to expect restore points is not the wisest of choices
[12:19] <InsomniaCity> Hi! Is there a UDP echo service I can enable on ubuntu?
[12:20] <snooo> exit
[12:20] <fujin_> can enable it with inetd/xinetd
[12:20] <bascule> rathel: sudo chmod 700 the/file
[12:20] <GinoPertile> Hello! I'm with a problem in XAMPP under Ubuntu.
[12:20] <fujin_> I'm with a problem with your english
[12:20] <GinoPertile> My problem is that I want to put files inside http://localhost/my_home_dir and I made a symbolic link to ~/public_html ... but nothing happens... I get an error when I try to access http://localhost/my_home_dir --- Forbidden.
[12:20] <GinoPertile> Someone could help me?
[12:20] <A2t3c13> i tried running the script exchanging install for remove and auto remove to no avail
[12:20] <fujin_> FollowSymlinks in your apache configuration
[12:20] <xmOD> @bascule: but linux is on HDD A and windows is on HDD B.. so when i do the fixmbr thing, the bootloader will be deleted from HDD A, right?
[12:20] <fujin_> or just use UserDir
[12:21] <rathel> bascule, thank will try that.
[12:21] <InsomniaCity> fujin_: yeah thought so, but my inetd.conf is blank
[12:21] <buka> guenas
[12:21] <bascule> A2t3c13: make uninstall, not all source builds support it though
[12:21] <slug> I am having a problem getting the livecd to boot on my laptop. I can boot any other distro's livecd and it boots just fine, but the ubuntu, kubutnu cds won't finish loading

[12:22] <SpudDogg> Does anyone know if we can download the new ATI 8.41 driver yet?  If so, where?
[12:22] <SeveredCross> It's still beta, those guys that did the review got a copy from ATI for review.
[12:22] <GinoPertile> fujin, Yes... I'm looking at that ... XAMPP by default has FollowSymlinks :   Options FollowSymLinks
[12:22] <buka> gracias
[12:22] <xmOD> bascule: but linux is on HDD A and windows is on HDD B.. so when i do the fixmbr thing, the bootloader will be deleted from HDD A, right?
[12:22] <vector3df> Is Edubuntu part of the official Ubuntu "project"?

[12:22] <WillieDaPimp> i need some serious help

[12:23] <CountX> can someone help me change the settings in armyops, i changed the renderer from opengl to software, and it crashed and wont start up now
[12:23] <bascule> xmOD: yes
[12:23] <xmOD> bascule: thx i will try that
[12:23] <A2t3c13> okay what exactly do i put in terminal ? and what next?
[12:23] <bascule> but rewritten by the windows mbr, this is what fixmbr does
[12:23] <arkanes> CountX: there's probably a dotfile in your home directory
[12:24] <WillieDaPimp> every time i try to install any app on a fresh install of fiesty i get the following error -- E: /var/cache/apt/archives/java-common_0.25ubuntu2_all.deb: files list file for package `openprinting-ppds' is missing final newline
[12:24] <bascule> A2t3c13: follow the instrunctions that you did to the point that you ran make install, and then run make uninstall
[12:24] <ikonia> WillieDaPimp any application at all ?
[12:24] <CountX> arkanes, no its not doted, it visable
[12:24] <WillieDaPimp> ikonia: yep any at all
[12:24] <arkanes> CountX: well there you go then
[12:25] <ikonia> WillieDaPimp what happens if you do "sudo apt-get update"
[12:25] <CountX> arkanes, i just cant find the file to change
[12:25] <bascule> A2t3c13: I can't psychically know the directory structure on your machine, you made the dir that is called viladia-? some where, goto that dir
[12:25] <A2t3c13> do you mean ut the same install in and eveything just the way it was then after add thia?
[12:25] <arkanes> CountX: then how do you know it's visible?
[12:25] <SpudDogg> Does anyone know if we can download the new ATI 8.41 driver yet?  If so, where?
[12:25] <ikonia> SpudDogg ati is the only official place to get them
[12:25] <ikonia> if they are not on ati's site - they are not out
[12:25] <SeveredCross> Didn't I already say that you couldn't?
[12:25] <CountX> arkanes, because i changed the settings with a text file in the windows version before
[12:26] <gnizzub> quit
[12:26] <A2t3c13> if you will look at the script you should be able to see i never did anything
[12:26] <kemik> cant figure this out
[12:26] <tarelerulz> any of you have a error five on grub?  I was booting for small hard drive and I thought I set up my big hard drive to boot
[12:26] <poncho> need help with compiz fusion, the problem is if i mazimize a app. then i can see toolbars... please help
[12:26] <A2t3c13> www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-tor-with-vidalia-gui-on-ubuntu.html
[12:26] <bascule> A2t3c13: sure, if it supports make uninstall, if not then you will have to put up with the extra files lying around until you develop the skills and knowledge to delete them manually :))
[12:26] <SeveredCross> You can't, the guys who got them from ATI just got them for a review from ATI, they sent them to them.
[12:26] <CountX> arkanes, i just dont know where it was, dont remem, and i dont know if its the same in the linux port
[12:26] <arkanes> CountX: well, this isn't windows, and it's certainly possible that it's a dotfile here
[12:26] <WillieDaPimp> ikonia: no problem with apt-get update......it worked fine
[12:26] <SpudDogg> ikonia: they don't have it for download yet, but people are talking about it like they already have it
[12:26] <ikonia> SpudDogg then they are not using the officail releases
[12:26] <SpudDogg> ikonia: cool, thanks man
[12:26] <ikonia> WillieDaPimp try "sudo apt-get install openssh-server"
[12:26] <ikonia> WillieDaPimp as a test
[12:26] <A2t3c13> thats the thing amigo i dont have spare space tp play with
[12:27] <bascule> A2t3c13: well you live and learn ... :)
[12:27] <bascule> beware the power of the enter key
[12:27] <SpudDogg> SeveredCross: yes, it is a bad habbit of mine to only read what displays as read.  I did not mean to ignore you
[12:27] <WillieDaPimp> ikonia: 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 179 not upgraded.
[12:27] <WillieDaPimp> E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[12:27] <WillieDaPimp> E: Unable to lock the download directory
[12:27] <kemik> Problem: i remove files on my HD, however there's no more space freed up. (using rm -rf, so i figure it wouldnt go to a .Trash folder either)
[12:27] <A2t3c13>  i thought linux was supposed to be a self cleaning and flush out all that junk with auto-remove,purge and crap like that?
[12:27] <SpudDogg> i mean red
[12:27] <ikonia> WillieDaPimp and you used sudo  ?
[12:27] <ikonia> WillieDaPimp do you have synaptic or aptitude open ?
[12:27] <WillieDaPimp> ikonia: yes
[12:28] <WillieDaPimp> ikonia: synaptic
[12:28] <ike_tech> anyone know where I can find Rhythmbox 0.10.0 compatible radio stations?
[12:28] <InsomniaCity> Is it safe to restart inetd when I'm not at the box? Might I lose connectivity to normal services if I made a config error?
[12:28] <ikonia> WillieDaPimp close synaptic
[12:28] <ikonia> WillieDaPimp you can't have two package managers open at one
[12:28] <ikonia> once
[12:28] <KevinOman> can someone look at this for me? Im trying to install gazpacho from apt and I get these errors http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37155/
[12:28] <jeff_> hello
[12:28] <A2t3c13> well i might as well get the thing to work if im going to be stuck with the stuff anyways
[12:29] <ikonia> KevinOman you've compiled and linked this against a new version of python in /usr/local
[12:29] <A2t3c13> i cant believe i cant just restare it to a previous point in time
[12:29] <A2t3c13> thats just unheard of
[12:29] <WillieDaPimp> ikonia: ok i closed it and ran the same command as before in the terminal and got the same error
[12:29] <ikonia> KevinOman its conlfciting with its self in /usr and /usr/local
[12:29] <ikonia> WillieDaPimp never seen that one before, I'll have to do a little digging
[12:29] <A2t3c13> im really steamed now
[12:29] <ikonia> WillieDaPimp no idea off the top of my head
[12:30] <jeff_> I just wanted to save some people the head ache I went through when trying to launch multiple X servers
[12:30] <vip3rousmango> Hey, I
[12:30] <arkanes> A2t3c13: for the record, if you'd done the same thing in windows, system restore wouldn't help you
[12:30] <A2t3c13> my own dumb fault but steamed non the less
[12:30] <KevinOman> ikonia, first I downloaded the tarball and tried to install it, it didn't work, then I found it in apt and it didn't work either, I think you are right. any idea on how to fix it?
[12:30] <ripzay> erver irc.quakenet.org
[12:30] <bascule> A2t3c13: no it isn't unheard of
[12:30] <vip3rousmango> I'm having trouble connecting my Cybershot Camera via USB to kubuntu; it won't reconginze the camera or even acknowlage that something has been plugged in, anyone able to helP?
[12:30] <jeff_> ctrl+alt+F(x); xinit -- :1 vt(x); startfluxbox
[12:30] <ikonia> KevinOman well, you've well and truly borked your system as it thinks python 2.5 (not the correct version) is installed in both /usr/local and /usr
[12:31] <corey_> hello?
[12:31] <jeff_> hello corey
[12:31] <WillieDaPimp> ikonia: if it helps ' last night when i installed this xubuntu fiesty version at the end of the install it said pretty much the same error it said that it was unable to uninstall openprinting-ppds or something like that
[12:31] <SpudDogg> corey_: are you answering a phone ;)
[12:31] <corey_> I am a fairly new user and I just had a question, a quick one at that
[12:31] <A2t3c13> for the record i did nt mean to insinuate just cause windows has restore points it was any better then the gum on the bottom of my shoe
[12:31] <jeff_> shoot
[12:31] <SpudDogg> corey_: what's the question
[12:31] <corey_> just need to double check one thing first, brb
[12:31] <KevinOman> ikonia, what do you suggest?
[12:31] <arkanes> A2t3c13: I'm not clear what you expect to happen automatically, or exactly what problem you have
[12:31] <jeff_> lol ok
[12:32] <arkanes> A2t3c13: are you trying to figure out how to delete things?
[12:32] <alix> hi everyone
[12:32] <bascule> A2t3c13: lol, but it is a win technolgy, I think new OSX will have it too
[12:32] <ikonia> KevinOman either do a mass tidy up of gtk, but I'd do a clean install to a known good state
[12:32] <ikonia> KevinOman this could cause problems for anything else that uses gtk/python at later times
[12:32] <alix> i have a problem configuring the new lyx using deb version
[12:32] <A2t3c13> yea this guy did a nice job of helping me its just my own stupidity that is dragging me down
[12:32] <ikonia> alix where did you get the new version ?
[12:33] <alix> on lyx site
[12:33] <bascule> A2t3c13: well lets call it a learning experience
[12:33] <ikonia> alix get support from the lyx site as its not an ubuntu package
[12:33] <bascule> don't beat yourself up to much
[12:33] <vip3rousmango> I'm having an issue trying to access my digicam via USB. Ubuntu won't recognize that the cam is even connected and on USB mode.. anyone have an idea on how to correct this?
[12:33] <jeff_> lsusb
[12:33] <jeff_> see if it's detected at all
[12:33] <alix> there is nothing i can do ?
[12:33] <A2t3c13> i guess i didnt expect it to be so permenant and its not like i have 100gb hard disc to spare 128mb of useless garbage
[12:33] <ikonia> alix get support from the lyx site - its not a package made or supported by ubuntu
[12:34] <vip3rousmango> jeff_: where? in console?
[12:34] <KevinOman> ikonia, is there any way to keep my home folder and reinstall?
[12:34] <jeff_> yes
[12:34] <A2t3c13> ive only got 10gb and every bit has to count
[12:34] <kemik> ugh.. /etc/fstab looks messy after the edgy upgrade
[12:34] <alix> ok
[12:34] <ikonia> KevinOman is /home on a seperate package ?
[12:34] <corey_> k, so im having trouble getting beryl to function. I got it installed but the actually 3d effects arent working. I think its a conflict with my video card (radeon moility m7 (7500 series). does anyone know of a driver update or something of the sort that may fix this problem. I googled a bit but couldnt find much other than people having similar issues
[12:34] <ikonia> oopd
[12:34] <ikonia> KevinOman is /home on a seperate partition
[12:34] <KevinOman> ikonia nope
[12:34] <alix> but what about the one supportded by ubuntu. How can i install the last version
[12:34] <ikonia> KevinOman back it up somewhere else then
[12:34] <KevinOman> ikonia ok, thanks
[12:34] <jeff_> corey idk anything about that (I use fluxbox)
[12:34] <ikonia> alix wait for ubuntu to package it
[12:35] <jeff_> but have u tried envy?
[12:35] <mike01> how do i enable kbfx?
[12:35] <mike01> i installed it and configured it
[12:35] <mike01> but still have the old menu
[12:35] <vip3rousmango> jeff_: ok it found it... now how to I access it?
[12:35] <corey_> k, thanks anyways. just checking to see if anyone experienced anything similar
[12:35] <A2t3c13> i cant wait to get a new computer and actually learn this stuff myself instead of dragging my behind here to make a fool of myself
[12:35] <jeff_> that was just a preliminary test to see if it was detected idk if it's possible to access
[12:35] <vip3rousmango> jeff_: it says Bus 005 Device 003: ID 054c:0010 Sony Corp. DSC-S30/S70/S75/F505V/F505/FD92 Cybershot/Mavica Digital Camera
[12:36] <jeff_>  054c:0010 google that
[12:36] <alix> how can i install the 1.4.4 version it is not in the repository
[12:36] <bascule> A2t3c13: you are learning, that is how we do
[12:36] <vip3rousmango> jeff_: ah. ok, can do.
[12:36] <jeff_> that's the Identification number
[12:36] <A2t3c13> sorry to bother you guyz thank you for all your help
[12:36] <corey_> is there something similar to beryl that runs on older video cards?
[12:36] <ikonia> alix you wait for ubuntu to package it
[12:36] <ikonia> alix why do you want that version ?
[12:36] <A2t3c13> yea well to be honest i wouldnt waste my time using "chat" unless it was about ubuntu
[12:37] <A2t3c13> ive never chatted in my life
[12:37] <unperson> ikonia: Ok, sorry about  the long delay.  I found a kubuntu feisty live CD I had and booted up with that.  I installed mdadm with apt-get and tried the command you said (after doing sudo -s).  I found that installed mdadm caused it to go through the setup script.  it found the two partitions but named them md1 and md2.  I tried doing 'mdadm --manage /dev/md1 --check", but it says it doesn't understand the option '--check'.
[12:37] <alix> i have a problem using the current version using frensh
[12:37] <bascule> A2t3c13: but just for the record insta;;ing from source is not somethng that you shoul do unless you know the full consequences
[12:37] <jeff_> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gthumb/+bug/24746   try reading that thread vip3r
[12:37] <jeff_> the guy describes a similarish problem
[12:37] <ikonia> alix log a request to ubuntu to package it
[12:37] <vip3rousmango> jeff_: ok thanks, i'll check it out and come back
[12:37] <jeff_> kk
[12:37] <alix> thanks ikonia
[12:37] <ikonia> unperson you'll have to man mdadm to find the check option correct falg
[12:37] <A2t3c13> i had NO idea what i was doing which is something i have to stop
[12:38] <A2t3c13> im just too impulsive
[12:38] <elzbal> A2t3c13: To be fair, that's how we all learned.  :)
[12:39] <elzbal> A2t3c13: Just a sanity check... did you try "make uninstall"? It may or may not work, depending on whether the developers implemented it.
[12:39] <UncleD> Is there a better way to do a backup of my system than this? test=$(uname -r)'_'$(date '+%m%d%y').tar.gz
[12:39] <UncleD> tar -vzcf $test --exclude /tmp --exclude /var/run --exclude /dev --exclude /proc --exclude $test --exclude /backup $* /
[12:39] <A2t3c13> thank you very much for you kind words of encouragement but ive not felt that as the general feeling of concensus on the ubuntu channels
[12:39] <fujin> UncleD, rsnapshot
[12:39] <unperson> ikonia:  the portion of the man page on manage mode only seems to list options relating to adding or removing a device or setting one as faulty.
[12:40] <SimplySeth> is there a package that does color syntax for php pages  in vim ?
[12:40] <ikonia> unperson the problem appears to be that mdadm thinks you have two meta devices - not one
[12:40] <UncleD> fujin: Ok I apt-get installed it. Why is it better?
[12:40] <ikonia> hence why / can't be mounted as md0 does not exist
[12:40] <A2t3c13> alot of bashing and snooty attitude and many people that cdont really want to help anyone
[12:40] <ikonia> md1 and 2 do
[12:40] <elzbal> A2t3c13: People here have a tendancy to be short-worded. I wouldn't take that as a feeling of unhelpfulness. (If people wanted to be unhelpful, they wouldnt be here in the first place)
[12:40] <fujin> SimplySeth, apt-get install vim && vi bla.php, type :syntax on
[12:40] <fujin> or put it in your vimrc
[12:40] <fujin> UncleD, you configure it once and then put it in a crontab, it understands incremental/differential/full backups
[12:40] <fujin> can run it across rsync over ssh to remote servers if necessary
[12:41] <SimplySeth> fujin .vimrc .. okay
[12:41] <ikonia> A2t3c13 this channel is really busy, and your chatter in it disrupts the support process, hence why people are short. You can chatter about it all day in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:41] <A2t3c13> they are just showing off that they know how, you dont, and they will dump a feww lines on you not bothering to explain
[12:41] <UncleD> fujin: Very awesome. You favor it to mondo?
[12:41] <SimplySeth> fujin that was easy .. thanks
[12:41] <Spaz1331> wireless problem: 1> worked great in kernel x.x.x.15, 2> now that I'm on kernel x.x.x.16, when I boot or un-sleep I have to put in the wireless password over and over and over before it actually connects :(  any idea what's up with that?
[12:42] <A2t3c13> soory i forgot i wasnt on offtopic! lol i appologize, thank fellaz for the help
[12:42] <ikonia> Spaz1331 bug it network manager, I believe its logged in launchapd
[12:42] <unperson> ikonia:  To clarify, there are two RAID0 devices (if that's the right term).  One for / and one for /home.   It was the case before that / was /dev/md0  and /home was /dev/md1.
[12:42] <A2t3c13> bye
[12:42] <Spaz1331> ikona - thanks~!
[12:42] <Spaz1331> err iknoia
[12:42] <ikonia> unperson ok - so run a check on both and try to mount both as a test
[12:42] <unperson> ikonia: But you may be right about it looking for md1 wather than md0.
[12:42] <bascule> unperson: have you pasted mdadm.conf anywhere?
[12:43] <Sos``> sudo mkdir /boot/dos returns 'permission denied' why?
[12:43] <bascule> you aren't in  sudoers file?
[12:43] <unperson> ikonia:  I'm still not precisely sure how to "run a check".  I'll have to look through the man page a bit.  Then i'll try to mount them.
[12:43] <tarelerulz> I had second hard drive I think I rewrote the mbr so that If  second hard drive is no in anymore That I can't boot my system
[12:43] <jeff_> XMMS is the only reliable music player :(
[12:44] <fujin> mpd+gmpc2
[12:44] <fujin> makes xmms look unstable
[12:44] <jeff_> I'll give it a try
[12:44] <bascule> jeff_: XMMS is super table undoubtedly
[12:44] <fujin> well, any of the frontends. gmpc is prety sweet ;)
[12:44] <bascule> table or even stable :)
[12:44] <unperson> bascule:  You mean the mdadm.conf file on the root partition itself?
[12:44] <fujin> ncmpc for the win, if gmpc isn't available ;] 
[12:44] <jeff_> I like banshee but it constantly crashes
[12:44] <bascule> unperson: yeah
[12:45] <bascule> rhythmbox seems OK so far
[12:45] <jeff_> I think I may check out amarok
[12:45] <mrdude> hi, ever since i put in a router I cannot get 90% of torrents to download, i assume it has something to do with it, anyone know what i need to do? ive already forwarded all the ports it asks for tried a few different configurations, nothing seems to be working
[12:45] <vip3rousmango> amarok is alright, but is a little resource heavy than most other media players
[12:45] <jeff_> banshee is like a flashier rhythmbox
[12:45] <unperson> bascule:  I have not.  Until I manage to mount the disk I can't get to it.  And presumably if the disk can't be mounted then that's not the root of the problem, right?
[12:45] <bascule> jeff_: amarok is absolutely superb and very but not totally stable
[12:45] <mrdude> anyone know what im missing?
[12:45] <jonesgeek> Hi all.  I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my Intel Mac Mini (just Ubuntu, no other OS)  The disk that I've installed off of was labeled Ubuntu 7.10.  I'm having trouble with X displaying to my tv (kds-r60xbr1 dvi->hdmi).  With xserver-xorg-video-i810 driver, it will only display 640x480.  I've also tried the xserver-xorg-video-intel driver, but I can't even get 640x480 out of it.  I've also tried banging my head against it, but that hasn
[12:45] <bascule> unperson: I see
[12:46] <CoasterMaster> Is shrinking NTFS partitions using gparted generally a safe operation?
[12:46] <jeff_> I know I like to run light but I have 60+gb of music, so I love the search feature
[12:46] <jeff_> yes
[12:46] <Grungebunny> coasterMaster worked for me without a hitch
[12:46] <mrdude> amarok is great for large music collections
[12:46] <jeff_> but you better make sure to defrag the ntfs filesystem first
[12:46] <vip3rousmango> or if you have to have that itunes feel..
[12:46] <bascule> unperson: where then are you trying to mount it, is it the / at boot time?
[12:46] <jeff_> I know but I like to run light
[12:46] <jeff_> lol
[12:46] <jeff_> that's why banshee was good for me
[12:46] <vip3rousmango> likewise, xmms all the way!
[12:46] <jeff_> it was a happy medium
[12:47] <unperson> ikonia:   When you were talking about checking, were you meaning examine?
[12:47] <jeff_> but XMMS just works
[12:47] <jeff_> never had a crash
[12:47] <mrdude> in ktorrent i keep getting "An error occurred while loading the torrent. The torrent is probably corrupt or is not a torrent file."
[12:47] <mrdude> to just about everything
[12:47] <tarelerulz> coastermaster I shrank my ntfs partition and have been use it for months So I would say yes
[12:47] <vip3rousmango> ok see, don't use ktorrent
[12:47] <mrdude> i know
[12:47] <Evanlec> mrdude, try deluge ;p
[12:47] <vip3rousmango> mrdude: try deluge
[12:47] <vip3rousmango> aha yeah..
[12:47] <Evanlec> hah
[12:48] <mrdude> yeah deluge doesnt give me an error message
[12:48] <SeveredCross> Wow, that was creepy
[12:48] <SeveredCross> Deluge owns.
[12:48] <mrdude> but it just doesnt work
[12:48] <jeff_> Deluge has been unstable for me lately
[12:48] <mrdude> it wont download the file
[12:48] <Evanlec> deluge is the best bt client ive used on ubuntu anyway
[12:48] <vip3rousmango> and your sure you opened all the ports you need?
[12:48] <jvai> <-- trying to get into itunes store wit rythmnbox, almost there.... just give me a few more years
[12:48] <jeff_> na
[12:48] <mrdude> yeah
[12:48] <jeff_> transmission is the best hands down
[12:48] <Evanlec> course uTorrent still better...wish they would release a linux port
[12:48] <Grungebunny> I like Azureus
[12:48] <mrdude> 4444 then i set up 49152-49159
[12:48] <vip3rousmango> az is just too heavy with that much java :(
[12:48] <jeff_> deluge is nice, but it has nothing on transmission
[12:48] <mrdude> azureus same deal, just sits there not downloading
[12:48] <jeff_> agreed
[12:48] <Grungebunny> Evanlec you can wine utorrent..
[12:49] <Evanlec> Azureus crashes on me, i didnt like the way it used a java wrapper thing, felt bloated
[12:49] <mrdude> i loved ktorrent while it worked
[12:49] <Grungebunny> mrdude you behind a router?
[12:49] <jeff_> I hate java
[12:49] <vip3rousmango> yup
[12:49] <Evanlec> Grungebunny, i know...but that adds the overhead of wine...messiness
[12:49] <gtk_sp>  /msg NickServ sendpass gtk_sp  plinio.triana@gmail.com
[12:49] <ikaros> Hello
[12:49] <jeff_> hi
[12:49] <Evanlec> ktorrent has to load the kde files tho which i didnt like
[12:49] <mrdude> Grungebunny yes i am
[12:49] <newdude> hey guys, im trying to compile some source code, ive successfully used './configure' now im ment to use 'make' but when i type in 'make' the terminal says: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.  what am i doing wrong?
[12:49] <slug> hello, anyone able to help me with a livecd problem
[12:49] <Grungebunny> evanlec I saw a very simple howto to run utorrent on ubuntu
[12:49] <mrdude> Grungebunny i know it has something to do with it i just cant figure out how to work around
[12:49] <Grungebunny> mrdude that could be the issue. the ports aren't open.
[12:50] <Evanlec> Grungebunny, with wine? i know i did it thru wine before
[12:50] <mrdude> Grungebunny i figured that , but they are open
[12:50] <newdude> anyone?
[12:50] <vip3rousmango> newdude: you have cd to the dir where you did the ./configure yes?
[12:50] <newdude> yup
[12:50] <jeff_> hmm
[12:50] <unperson> brascule:  I'm not sure I understand the question.  My problem is as follows:  My / partition is on a RAID0.  After I upgraded to Feisty, the boot process craps out in the middle and spits me out at the initramfs prompt.  It appears that it can't mount the RAID that contains the system /.
[12:50] <jeff_> did u install build-essential
[12:50] <jeff_> s
[12:50] <jeff_> build-essentials'
[12:50] <Grungebunny> mrdude have you checked this site yet? http://www.portforward.com/
[12:50] <Evanlec> Grungebunny, u know how to set default app for torrent files?
[12:51] <fujin> unperson, that's probably due to mdadm being upgraded
[12:51] <fujin> unfortunate, and not very easy to fix
[12:51] <fujin> raid0 is stripe or mirror?
[12:51] <fujin> I always forget.
[12:51] <Grungebunny> evanlec not off the top of my head.. what I do is download the torrent do desktop then click/drag it to whatever torrent app I wanna use.
[12:51] <jeff_> browse from the firefox save thing
[12:51] <Evanlec> raid 0 = stripe
[12:51] <fujin> If it's stripe, you're fucked
[12:51] <jeff_> when you go to open or save a torrent
[12:51] <vip3rousmango> Evanlec: just right click on a torrent file and choose which program to use to run it, and click always use this program and ur system will associate for you
[12:51] <jeff_> select open
[12:51] <PriceChild> !ohmy | fujin
[12:51] <Ubotu> fujin: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:51] <fujin> Ah the joys of software raid ;] 
[12:51] <Evanlec> Grungebunny, yea tats what i do now...
[12:51] <jeff_> and then switch the program
[12:51] <newdude> is there something i have to put after 'make'?
[12:52] <jeff_> make and then make install
[12:52] <mrdude> no
[12:52] <vip3rousmango> nope
[12:52] <Evanlec> vip3rousmango, i dont see a "always use this program" only see that in windows
[12:52] <mrdude> looks like it costs money though
[12:52] <newdude> :/
[12:52] <jeff_> sorry pal
[12:52] <newdude> make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[12:52] <vip3rousmango> Evanlec: well in KDE it has that....
[12:52] <newdude> :/
[12:52] <vip3rousmango> Evanlec: let me check.. one sec
[12:52] <Evanlec> vip3rousmango, well kde users are sposed to be in #kubuntu arent they? ;p
[12:52] <fujin> newdude, did you ./configure first?
[12:53] <fujin> ./configure should generate a makefile and other stuff.
[12:53] <newdude> yup i successfully did ./configure
[12:53] <vip3rousmango> Evanlec: ahaha yeah, cept no one could help me with my issue there..
[12:53] <KevinOman> how can I mount my windows partition in nautilus with root priveleges
[12:53] <A2t3c13> bascule: what was it again sudo make uninstall or was it sudo make remove?
[12:53] <newdude> theres a 'Makefile.in' in the dir now after i used './configure'
[12:53] <fujin> did you run 'make' in the same directory you ran ./configure in?
[12:53] <jeff_> sudo mount /dev/sdax
[12:53] <newdude> yup
[12:53] <KevinOman> the partition shows up on my desktop but I can't write to it
[12:54] <fujin> uh
[12:54] <fujin> maybe ./autogen.sh
[12:54] <fujin> where did you get this package?
[12:54] <fujin> have you tried reading the readme/install file?
[12:54] <newdude> its a game called UFO
[12:54] <jeff_> o
[12:54] <newdude> i read the install file
[12:54] <jeff_> kevin
[12:54] <fujin> yes, and? what does it say to do
[12:54] <newdude> and it says do ./configure then make, then make install
[12:54] <d4rkmonkey> anyone know how to get a 360 Guitar Hero 2 controller working in Ubuntu?
[12:54] <jeff_> u need to use pmount I think
[12:54] <jeff_> so install pmount
[12:54] <WillieDaPimp> ikonia, i seemed to fix it, well sort of, i found that if i ran 'sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.lists' it started installing packages after i ran that.....i don;t know how smart it was to delete those files but it hasn't seemed to destroy anything.....yet
[12:54] <CoasterMaster> When I try to unmount my NTFS drive (right click on desktop icon -> unmount), I get an error: Can not unmount volume....under details: umount: /media/sda2 mount disagrees with the fstab
[12:54] <newdude> i got the ./configure part right, just make is not working :S
[12:55] <jeff_> and then replace mount with pmount
[12:55] <jeff_> if that doesn't work idk what to tell you
[12:55] <SpudDogg> Is there any way to force "Restricted Drivers Manager" to show a driver so I can enable it?  Ever since I installed VMWare, I cannot enable the ATI proprietary driver for my video card.
[12:55] <unperson> ikonia: Ok, I tried "manage --examine /dev/md1' and got an error message about no md superblock.  I then tried 'manage --examine /dev/sda3' and got output about the RAID device that didn't seem to indicate any error.  I assume that just means examine  is supposed to be run on the physical device.
[12:55] <A2t3c13> bascule?
[12:55] <jvalencia> hi
[12:55] <jeff_> hi
[12:55] <jvalencia> one question
[12:55] <unperson> ikonia:   I then mounted /dev/md1 which mounts ok and is, indeed, the / filesystem.
[12:56] <jvalencia> i have installed ubuntu on my laptop
[12:56] <jeff_> ok
[12:56] <Pici> !enter
[12:56] <jeff_> good choice
[12:56] <Ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:56] <Aop2717> howdy
[12:56] <Grungebunny> jvalencia /hi5
[12:56] <jeff_> ok sorry
[12:56] <jvalencia> i udpated ubuntu, but since then the graphical interface dos not start
[12:56] <A2t3c13> can some body please tell me if the command is make uninstall or make remove?
[12:56] <Pici> A2t3c13: Try both, it wont hurt.
[12:56] <A2t3c13> thanks which first?
[12:57] <jeff_> log in, and then type startx
[12:57] <newdude> ahh its ok ive got it now, i just ran ./configure again, now a makefile has appeared, working now :)
[12:57] <jeff_> lol
[12:57] <A2t3c13> any-others worth trying?
[12:57] <KevinOman> jeff_: I did that but how do I get a file browser up? it said it was already mounted under /media/sda1
[12:57] <Pici> A2t3c13: It doesnt matter, like I said, its what the developer has setup as the makefile targets
[12:57] <unperson> ikonia: So now that I have it mounting from the kubuntu live CD, now the question is how do I get it to mount during the boot sequence of my actual Ubuntu install that's on the HD.
[12:57] <jvalencia> yes i do that, but how can i make to make start automactilly
[12:57] <KevinOman> jeff_: so I umount and tried pmount but it said device was not removeable
[12:57] <jeff_> you could type sudo nautilus
[12:58] <A2t3c13> yea makes sense thanks again!
[12:58] <Aop2717> I've just installed Ubuntu on my desktop, and have a partition i created in windows that i want to partition into space that ubuntu can use and have found the disks manager application and am just curious which format type i should use
[12:58] <jeff_> o ok
[12:58] <Pici> jeff_: gksudo fyi.
[12:58] <fujin> Aop2717, ext3
[12:58] <Pici> Aop2717: Ext3
[12:58] <slimjimflim> hi...having some issues copying single quote characters from evince to other applications.  can this be caused by missing or fonts?
[12:58] <fujin> or reiser3, but ext3 is recommended
[12:58] <Aop2717> and the access path should there be anything there?
[12:58] <newdude> sorry this sounds dumb but im really new to linux: whats the difference between the 'sudo' comand and the 'gksudo' comand?
[12:59] <jeff_> thanks Pici
[12:59] <fujin> newdude, gksudo has a GTK interface
[12:59] <mrdude> ~/quit
[12:59] <PriceChild> !gksudo | newdude
[12:59] <Ubotu> newdude: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[12:59] <newdude> cool ty
[12:59] <jeff_> I'm not sure then kevin sorry
[12:59] <jvalencia> jeff ideas??
[01:00] <fujin> Aop2717, the access path is where it is mounted afterwards, I'd use something like /mnt/blah
[01:00] <fujin> or mount it as /home or something.
[01:00] <jeff_> umm
[01:00] <Aop2717> ok thanks everyone
[01:00] <KevinOman> jeff pici, either way I do it sudo or gksudo, it won't let me write to that folder
[01:00] <wycked> compiz-fusion
[01:00] <wycked> oops
[01:00] <jvalencia> sorry
[01:01] <jvalencia> jeff, you were saying?
[01:01] <m12> hi guys, i have problem runing command: apache2-ssl-certificates -days 3650 . it does not accept this command ? what wrong ?
[01:01] <jvalencia> ideas?
[01:02] <deb4evr> lots of people.
[01:02] <Pici> m12: Thats not a command.
[01:03] <KevinOman> how do I access my windows partition when it says that it is read only, I have tried gksudo nautilus, but there is still a lock on the folder
[01:04] <Pici> !ntfs-3g | KevinOman
[01:04] <Ubotu> KevinOman: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:04] <Pici> KevinOman: ntfs is not writeable using the standard ntfs driver
[01:04] <Grungebunny> KevinOman all I have to do is double click it, it asks me for password and im in...
[01:05] <MrDeadLock> anyone here use moblock?
[01:05] <Pici> KevinOman: Are we talking about a windows partition on the same computer as the ubuntu install? or some sort of share?
[01:06] <KevinOman> pici it is the same drive
[01:06] <hexstar> can linux support 64 processor machines?
[01:06] <Pici> hexstar: Yes.
[01:06] <sgtmattbaker> I have sshd and vnc running on my ubuntu.  I have the remote desktop where it is allowed, but when I try to putty in from another pc on the network (or try to vnc ) it just times out.  I can login both ways if the server PC is  running cygwin
[01:06] <newdude> sudo apt-get moo
[01:06] <AnRkey> hexstar, yes it does
[01:06] <Pici> KevinOman: You need to follow the directions above about mounting windows partitions then.
[01:07] <Alfa> hello everyone !...
[01:07] <unperson> Hmmm...Since I can't boot properly with my current initrd image since upgrading to feisty, could I just copy initrd.img.old to initrd.img and boot that way?  or will that be bad?
[01:07] <disinterested> i cannot mount my new hd?
[01:07] <AnRkey> hexstar, http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-amd64.iso
[01:08] <sgtmattbaker> I have sshd and vnc running on my ubuntu.  I have the remote desktop where it is allowed, but when I try to putty in from another pc on the network (or try to vnc ) it just times out.  I have port 22 on the router forwarded.. and this works in windows
[01:08] <MrDeadLock> Does moblock have an IRC channel?
[01:08] <voltron> what is the compiz setting called that will disable the default effect that slides windows around and under a newly raised window?
[01:08] <riccardo> hi to all
[01:08] <KevinOman> pici you mean the link you sent me
[01:08] <newdude> does anyone know if ati has actually released the latest driver yet?
[01:08] <mmlinux> how do i get a gui for wine in ubuntu
[01:08] <Pici> KevinOman: Yes, the link ubotu sent
[01:08] <vip3rousmango> newdude: not that I know of.. you'd have to google and check
[01:09] <jeff_> good luck with anything ati
[01:09] <mmlinux> like an add/remove panel ect,
[01:09] <Bukozzi> some can help .. i'm newbie ubuntu user
[01:09] <vip3rousmango> mmlinux: if you want to config wine just type: winecfg in a terminal
[01:09] <vip3rousmango> ahah yeah, ati is a pain
[01:09] <Lambd1> Is ca.archive.ubuntu.com down?
[01:10] <jeff_> personally idc about free vs. proprietary as long as it works well
[01:10] <vip3rousmango> mmlinux: if you want to remove apps you installed via wine just go into terminal and type: wine uninstaller
[01:10] <jeff_> well that and I don't have to pay for it ;)
[01:10] <vip3rousmango> lol, yeah that's key
[01:10] <d4rknorris> mmlinux since you left #ubuntu+1 I didn't get to quite explain where .wine is, when I said ~/.wine that means that .wine is in your home directory, ~ is like /home/yourname/
[01:10] <jvalencia> jeff
[01:10] <jeff_> yes
[01:10] <jvalencia> about my question
[01:10] <jeff_> whats up
[01:10] <jvalencia> sorry, do you have any idea??
[01:11] <jeff_> did u try startx?
[01:11] <Pici> Lambchops: Looks to be down from here.
[01:11] <AnRkey> Lambchops, try another mirror here >> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors
[01:11] <jvalencia> yes, but i want to make it run as were installed in the beginning
[01:11] <bobby> tyrob
[01:11] <mmlinux> its not there
[01:11] <Lambchops> Pici: Thanks :)
[01:11] <jeff_> but did startx work?
[01:11] <mmlinux> theres no .wine directory in my home
[01:11] <jvalencia> yes
[01:11] <vip3rousmango> mmlinux: you need to make sure you can view hidden files
[01:11] <jvalencia> it did
[01:11] <jeff_> ok
[01:12] <vip3rousmango> mmlinux: anything with a . infront of it is a hidden file folder
[01:12] <mmlinux> <<<I guess i need to be root nautilus?
[01:12] <mmlinux> i checked show hidden files and nothing
[01:12] <jeff_> I'm no expert on this but  type vi .xinitrc
[01:12] <vip3rousmango> mmlinux: no, just open ur home folder.. and go to View > Show Hidden Files
[01:13] <jeff_> and tell me what it says
[01:13] <vip3rousmango> wait what?! theres nothing there?...
[01:13] <kitche> mmlinux, if you didn't run wine yet that .wine folder would not exist
[01:13] <mmlinux> holy shister thats alot of folders
[01:13] <RedEyess> here goes
[01:13] <AnRkey> mmlinux, type this in a console to see the wine dir
[01:13] <RedEyess> i have a 3945 intel wireless thing
[01:13] <sgtmattbaker> anyone help with putty login to ubuntu?
[01:13] <RedEyess> and i have read what i can
[01:13] <mmlinux> <<<<found it here it is!!!
[01:13] <AnRkey> nautilus ~/.wine
[01:13] <mmlinux> hehe
[01:14] <RedEyess> how do i get it to work?
[01:14] <kitche> sgtmattbaker, did you install openssh-server on this ubuntu?
[01:14] <sgtmattbaker> yeah
[01:14] <sgtmattbaker> port forwarded on router
[01:14] <kitche> sgtmattbaker, what is your issue exactly with logging in remotely
[01:14] <KevinOman> anyone here running gutsy?
[01:14] <sgtmattbaker> putty wont connect, but it does if I am running sshd under cygwin in windows.. so ubuntu is at fault
[01:14] <voltron> KevinOman: yes
[01:15] <jeff_> kevin gutsy kernel right here
[01:15] <sgtmattbaker> like if the server pc is windows I can do it
[01:15] <Pici> KevinOman: #ubuntu+1 for all gutsy questions... and alot of people running it.
[01:15] <AnRkey> KevinOman, I'm on the ape now
[01:15] <sgtmattbaker> but I want to login to ubuntu it jsut times out
[01:15] <bkhype> how do i get opengl to run under ubuntu with a hppavillion dv1000 laptop?
[01:15] <mmlinux> how do i remove a program from wine since i dont have grapihcal add/remove like pclinux
[01:15] <voltron> Pici: thanks, didn't know about that chan
[01:15] <vip3rousmango> mmlinux: go into console/terminal and type: wine uninstaller
[01:15] <jvalencia> does anyone knows how to make the graphical interface start without to login in the console and run startx?
[01:15] <tarelerulz> How do you redo the master boot record with out reinstalling ubunut
[01:15] <RedEyess> bkhype: what's your video card?
[01:16] <KevinOman> cool thanks guys
[01:16] <vip3rousmango> mmlinux: it will give you a windows-ish looking uninstaller
[01:16] <bkhype> integrated intel card
[01:16] <KevinOman> just wanted to know if it was stable enough to use right now
[01:16] <kitche> sgtmattbaker, is openssh-server even started?
[01:16] <sgtmattbaker> yeah
[01:16] <sgtmattbaker> I could do a loopback login
[01:16] <mmlinux> the program i installed isnt there
[01:16] <mmlinux> great
[01:17] <mmlinux> so now im stuck with a game that doesnt work.....
[01:17] <Nosense> hi
[01:17] <kitche> sgtmattbaker, by chance this is on two seperate machines right?
[01:17] <Noah0504> Do any of the media players sync podcasts to the podcast directory on an iPod?
[01:17] <Nosense> im new
[01:17] <AnRkey> KevinOman, don't use Gutsy if you are not very experienced with linux
[01:17] <Pici> mmlinux: Theres #winehq if you need some more specific help.
[01:17] <Nosense> whar is trhe difference doing a partition for /
[01:17] <KevinOman> ok AnRkey
[01:17] <Nosense> and a partition for /home
[01:17] <Nosense> on a installation ?
[01:17] <sgtmattbaker> kitche: yeah, putty wont connect to ubuntu, but it will connect to a windows pc running cygwin (I have been doing it for awhile)
[01:17] <kitche> Noah0504, yes amarok might do what you want or banshee
[01:17] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: these machines are on same subnets?
[01:17] <Pici> Nosense: You need a partition for / regardless.
[01:18] <sgtmattbaker> same network
[01:18] <sgtmattbaker> yes
[01:18] <sgtmattbaker> all internal IPs
[01:18] <Noah0504> kitche: I'm about to try out Amarok, but I know Banshee doesn't.
[01:18] <Pici> Nosense: You can put a seperate one for /home if you want to keep all your own stuff (documents,etc) separate from everything else.  It can be helpful when you upgrade.
[01:18] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: do a iptables -vL  to see if you're ubuntu has any firewall rules
[01:18] <sgtmattbaker> ok
[01:18] <tarelerulz> What I did was I install ubuntu on other hard drive and I think I redid the mbr and it the grub menu.lst I just put in the other ubuntu I had on my system manually.  When I took out the second hard drive my system will not boot any thing and I get error 5 from grub? help
[01:18] <fujin_> sgtmattbaker, so, you've installed openssh-server on your machine, and another machine can't ssh to it?
[01:18] <kitche> Noah0504, hmm seems liek it does here
[01:18] <omturyx> Nosense, / is where the root partition is mounted. .. whereas /home is optional ( and where home directories are created)
[01:18] <fujin_> sounds like a network issue :\
[01:18] <fujin_> or firewall obviously
[01:19] <sgtmattbaker> yeah
[01:19] <bkhype> amarok is buggy
[01:19] <Nosense> so i will do just 3 partitions fine ?
[01:19] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: whats the result of that iptables -vL
[01:19] <Noah0504> kitche: Hmm, maybe I just need to try again.
[01:19] <sgtmattbaker> it says I need to be root
[01:19] <Nosense> 1 boot ... 2 swap 3 filesystem its fine ?
[01:19] <omturyx> Nosense, even only 1 partition (/) would do fine. You may create another one for swap.
[01:19] <sgtmattbaker> all I got was this:
[01:19] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: then do so,  sudo iptables -vL
[01:19] <Netham45> frick
[01:19] <sgtmattbaker> Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
[01:19] <sgtmattbaker>  pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination

[01:20] <kitche> Noah0504, my ipod is no good or else I would see if it syncs up right but according to their page it handles podcasting
[01:20] <kitche> !paste | sgtmattbaker
[01:20] <Ubotu> sgtmattbaker: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:21] <bkhype> redeyess any luck ?
[01:21] <gnewsensical> !trainubuntu is a project idea about ubuntu marketing with the first rough draft kept at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37158/
[01:21] <KurdishSniper_> hiya
[01:21] <sgtmattbaker> so yeah
[01:22] <sgtmattbaker> what is going on with my ssh
[01:22] <KurdishSniper_> i am very new to Linux (aka I installed it today for the first time), and i am trying to install Beryl on it, but i seem to find it difficult..
[01:22] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: you are able to ping the ubuntu ?
[01:23] <KurdishSniper_> I dont yet have internet connection on the laptop with ubuntu 7.04
[01:23] <vip3rousmango> KurdishSniper_: i suggest learning more about the system before you install beryl
[01:23] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: nothing special configs on your ubuntu ?
[01:23] <KevinOman> sgtbuttmaker what are you trying to do?
[01:23] <KurdishSniper_> i typed in "sudo aptitude install beryl beryl-manager emerald-themes
[01:23] <tarelerulz> kurdishsniper  I had to use ndiswrapper and find the windows drive so I could use my wireless card
[01:23] <joeamined> hi folks
[01:24] <bascule> hey
[01:24] <KurdishSniper_> and it says couldnt find any package whose name or description matched "beyrel"...
[01:24] <joeamined> is there an application to view time in many time zones
[01:24] <joeamined> a sort of international clock ?
[01:24] <jrib> KurdishSniper_: do you know about compiz fusion?
[01:24] <KurdishSniper_> tarlerulz, i have a 3G datacard, and that is my worry for later, now i just want to install beyrl to hehe ;-)
[01:24] <kitche> KurdishSniper_, well of course it won't find beyrel sicne it's beryl and not beyrel
[01:24] <KurdishSniper_> jrib; as i said, i installed ubuntu today for the first time
[01:25] <KurdishSniper_> sorry my bad Kitche, i misstyped it.
[01:25] <tarelerulz> Does ubuntu by default over write the mast boot record ?
[01:25] <sgtmattbaker> yeah it wont ping it either.  it works if the server pc is running windows.. arrg
[01:25] <tarelerulz> when it installs
[01:25] <bascule> yes
[01:25] <KurdishSniper_> i mean here
[01:25] <jrib> KurdishSniper_: well beryl is no longer being developed.  You should use compiz fusion instead.  The people at #ubuntu-effects can help you with that
[01:25] <kitche> KurdishSniper_, but you need to enable more repos to get beryl
[01:25] <the_hatter> Anybody familiar with Capistrano? I am trying to deploy my application, but it fails with >> LoadError: no such file to load - - openssl).
[01:25] <arkanes> KurdishSniper_: You need to add the beryl repositories before that will work, and work on beryl has halted in favor of compiz fusion
[01:25] <KurdishSniper_> okay cool Jrib, thanks.. ill try compiz fusion
[01:26] <bascule> arkanes: what about emerald?
[01:26] <joeamined> anyone can help for my question please ?
[01:26] <bascule> what id you ask>
[01:26] <jrib> !please > joeamined (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:26] <GregVernon> Hey, I've searched the forums abit.  I'm trying to install Gnome on a server edition box.
[01:26] <kitche> bascule, emerald is part of compiz-fusion
[01:26] <KurdishSniper_> thanks guys, ill try downloading Compiz fusion and installing it.
[01:26] <joeamined> an international clock in ubuntu ?
[01:26] <bascule> kitche: I see, thanks
[01:26] <Pici> joeamined: Have you searched for it in the repositories?
[01:26] <GregVernon> I can't get x to start properly, anyone dealt with these problems before?
[01:26] <sgtmattbaker> I can ping the computer I am trying to login from from here, but not vice versa
[01:26] <KurdishSniper_> But where am i meant to put the downloaded files?!
[01:26] <jrib> joeamined: http://www.timeanddate.com/ works well for me
[01:26] <joeamined> pici yes but didn't find one
[01:26] <ootm> is there any software like clarkconnect that will turn an ubuntu server into a gateway/router - i dont want to install the full clarkconnect
[01:27] <krool> anyone know how to compile the kernal?
[01:27] <Pici> !kernel | krool
[01:27] <Ubotu> krool: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[01:27] <meglo> :|
[01:27] <kitche> KurdishSniper_, #ubuntu-effects can help you with compiling compiz-fusion or installing it not sure if they have ubuntu packages made or not on their forums
[01:27] <GregVernon> or at least know of a forum post on how to install X on a server edition?
[01:28] <krool> Why does it take forever for ubuntu to start up i want to get rid of the generic drivers and just use the ones for my computer
[01:28] <ootm> GregVernon, apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[01:28] <Pici> !compiz | KurdishSniper_ I think there is a howto for fusion here
[01:28] <Ubotu> KurdishSniper_ I think there is a howto for fusion here: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[01:28] <KurdishSniper_> Kitche; thanks ever so much pal
[01:28] <kitche> GregVernon, sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg will install X if you want a gui install kde or gnome or xfce4
[01:28] <Asuka> I
[01:28] <GregVernon> ootm- done!
[01:28] <KurdishSniper_> !compiz
[01:28] <GregVernon> kitche, would xserver-xfree86 work?
[01:29] <Pici> KurdishSniper_: read what Ubotu said.
[01:29] <Asuka> I'm trying to copy a file in /usr/lib but it says that I dont have permission to write to this file
[01:29] <kitche> krool, hmm takes about 2 seconds here or so to bootup
[01:29] <kitche> GregVernon, yes but that's not maintained as much as xorg is
[01:29] <jeff_> asuka
[01:29] <krool> kitche, yeah why not 40 seconds
[01:29] <sgtmattbaker> bulmer: I can ping the pc that I was trying to login to, but it cannot ping me (still running ubuntu)
[01:29] <GregVernon> alright, so I should uninstall that and install xorg?
[01:29] <Asuka> yes?
[01:29] <KurdishSniper_> Thanks ever so much Ubotu
[01:29] <jeff_> sudo cp /file /location
[01:29] <kitche> krool, because my computer is fast?
[01:29] <KurdishSniper_> Pici just did thanks bro
[01:29] <VSpike> joeamined: you can also add international clock to iGoogle home page
[01:29] <bascule> joeamined: gworldclock
[01:29] <jrib> Asuka: what are you actually trying to accomplish?
[01:29] <modor> Hello, I am new to streamripper. I notice the programs cuts short the ending of tunes, so that the beginning of the next isn't missed
[01:30] <Pici> joeamined: Searching just for 'clock' returned a bunch of results, some of them look good.
[01:30] <kitche> GregVernon, if you want xfree86 gets updates about every year but xorg gets about every few months
[01:30] <joeamined> ok thank you very much
[01:30] <krool> kitche, my computer is an intell Core 2 duo with 2 gb of ram
[01:30] <Asuka> There is a program called yamIpod
[01:30] <modor> can streamripper create a playlist, to duplice the same order so that mp3 player doesn't sound weird?
[01:31] <Asuka> designed for linux users with ipods
[01:31] <Asuka> and it told me I need to copy a certain file into my usr/lib

[01:34] <Asuka> The sudo cp isn't working, it says that no such file or directory
[01:34] <Shadow6363> hmm, is shockwave possible in ubuntu and if so, how does one install it?
[01:35] <vip3rousmango> tarelerulz: no, but windows likes to be a huge bully and oust ubuntu from the /boot
[01:35] <codeane_> recommended free burning software?
[01:35] <Pici> Grungebunny: iirc, you can just close it and it will stay in the tray.
[01:35] <Pici> !burning

[01:37] <Pici> A2t3c13: You need to install build-essential to compile things.
[01:38] <bascule> A2t3c13: it didn't install you have nothing to worry aboyt, just remove the vidalia directory :)
[01:38] <A2t3c13> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-tor-with-vidalia-gui-on-ubuntu.html this tutorial im doind dosent make mention of any compiling?
[01:39] <codeane_> recommended ubuntu ftp client?
[01:39] <tschaka> codeane_ gftp
[01:39] <codeane_> thx
[01:39] <bascule> A2t3c13: as soon as you see ./configure there is compiling going on :)
[01:39] <Pici> A2t3c13: make = compiling
[01:39] <A2t3c13> okay can we go off onn to xubuntu-espanol for a second Please
[01:40] <Pici> A2t3c13: I dont speak spanish.
[01:40] <A2t3c13> join xubuntu- spanish
[01:40] <PriceChild> AHEM - I apologise about these banforwards, but these affected users need to fix themselves :)
[01:40] <Asuka> What is the df command?
[01:40] <bascule> Asuka: disk free
[01:40] <A2t3c13> it dosent matter nobody is on the channel and im not reistered so private chat wont work
[01:40] <dimeotane> anyone know why xubuntu liveCD was freeking slow on a pIII-800mhz with 128MB of pc100 RAM?  I'd thought it would run faster...
[01:40] <bascule> Asuka: df -h is nicer output
[01:41] <bascule> dimeotane: faster than what?
[01:41] <Asuka> what's it used for? also how would i mount my ipod somewhere inside /mnt or /media with read/write access?
[01:41] <TerraMaster> Hey
[01:41] <bascule> well it shows partttion, I know nothing of iPods
[01:41] <TerraMaster> I think im regesterd now
[01:42] <dimeotane> bascule: faster than a snail
[01:42] <Pici> !ipod | Asuka
[01:42] <Ubotu> Asuka: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[01:42] <KurdishSniper_> Okay another problem, i need to get my 3G data card working and get on the net from my Ubuntu. I have downloaded the Driver file named (driver.tar.gz) and it contains 2 files ending with patch.
[01:42] <TerraMaster> Is there any way to add on to my file system (in space?)
[01:42] <bascule> dimeotane: snails are pretty quick if you are a slug, but live cds are very slow, cd has low transfer rate compared to hdd
[01:42] <dimeotane> bascule: I put it on a pIII laptop and it was quite a bit faster so I'm confused
[01:43] <KurdishSniper_> a tutorial tells me to type sudo make && install
[01:43] <TerraMaster> Is there any way to add on to my file system (in space?)
[01:43] <FFForever> anyone know how i can speed up ubuntu?
[01:43] <Pici> TerraMaster: Do you have free space on your harddrive?
[01:43] <TerraMaster> yes
[01:43] <bascule> dimeotane: could be DMA on the drive or just a slow x?? speed on the drive, could be lots of things
[01:43] <A2t3c13> xubuntu-spanish channel okay pls?
[01:43] <Pici> TerraMaster: Use gparted from a live-cd
[01:44] <KurdishSniper_> biut nothing happens it tells me no targets specified, I have put the File on Desktop
[01:44] <bkhype> anyone found a fix for helping games that run 3d accl things badly?
[01:44] <PriceChild> !es | A2t3c13
[01:44] <Ubotu> A2t3c13: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:44] <TerraMaster> ok then
[01:44] <dimeotane> bascule: good point... perhaps the CDROM was only 8x instead of 24x
[01:44] <TerraMaster> now where did I put that cd.....
[01:44] <FFForever> how come kubuntu never gets any of the kool stuff?
[01:44] <rootvzla> hi PriceChild
[01:44] <bascule> yeah that woulf=d make a sizeable difference to performance
[01:44] <KurdishSniper_> FFForver: from what i read, because its cool enough as its ;-)
[01:44] <sgtmattbaker> why cant I ping the ubuntu computer?
[01:44] <PriceChild> Hi rootvzla
[01:45] <sgtmattbaker> but the ubuntu can ping it
[01:45] <bascule> sgtmattbaker: cause the ubuntu machine drops SNMP?
[01:45] <Pici> bascule: icmp you mean.
[01:45] <sgtmattbaker> I dunno
[01:45] <ziggy23> I have an external hard drive connected to my computer but Ubuntu does not recognize it.  Is there any easy way to force the drive to mount, and is there any easy way to for a relative Linux newbie to fix things so it does not happen again?
[01:45] <bascule> yeah thats the ine, thanks :P
[01:45] <A2t3c13> xubuntu spanish are you going to ubuntu spn or wats the dealio?
[01:46] <sgtmattbaker> so what is wrong with ubuntu
[01:46] <bascule> I gonna get used to this keyboard too at some point
[01:46] <modor> good evening again
[01:46] <VSpike> sgtmattbaker: if you can get packets one way and not the other then it is most likely either routing issue or a firewall issue
[01:47] <kousotu> that was rude jrib
[01:47] <sgtmattbaker> then how do I make ubuntu work right
[01:47] <sgtmattbaker> where I can ping it
[01:47] <lg_> hello, hey guys anybody knows which one web framework ubuntu.com site uses?
[01:47] <modor> can streamripper create a playlist that duplicates its recording order, so that tunes moreorless blend?
[01:47] <VSpike> sgtmattbaker: are they on the same physical network?
[01:47] <sgtmattbaker> yes
[01:47] <sgtmattbaker> if they are both windows I can ping em
[01:47] <jrib> kousotu: ?
[01:47] <KurdishSniper_> Guys, I have to install a Driver for my Datacard, I have the  Linux driver which is called Driver.tar.gz and it contains two files linux-nozomi.patch and nozomi-be.patch. and i read that i have to use the command  "sudo make && make install"
[01:47] <Netham45> ^_^
[01:48] <VSpike> sgtmattbaker: you mean the ubuntu machine is dual boot and if you boot into windows, you can ping it?
[01:48] <KurdishSniper_> where should i place the tar.gz file? and do i need to extract it?!
[01:48] <sgtmattbaker> yeah
[01:48] <sgtmattbaker> I can ping the machine when it runs windows
[01:48] <sgtmattbaker> I can even remote logi
[01:48] <sgtmattbaker> n
[01:49] <bascule> KurdishSniper_: this is a complicated operation involving patching and recompiling a kernel, not to be trifled with by anyone
[01:49] <Gate> I am trying to use /etc/security/groups.conf to allow non-local users to access to groups like audio, anyone tell me if I am on the right path? if so, why does "* ; tty* ;*;Al0000-2400;audio" not work
[01:49] <KurdishSniper_> bascule: I have the full tutorial, and i am stock at that step.
[01:50] <shal3r^> I am having wlan0: link is not ready error when i try to connect to wireless. My wireless card is found and it`s rtl8180. What i can try to do to fix this?
[01:50] <KurdishSniper_> I usually am good at following tutorials, but not sure, where am i meant to place the driver file and if i should extract it or not...
[01:50] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: are you logged on to that ubuntu? can you ping the windows host?
[01:51] <bascule> KurdishSniper_: ok tar zxvf /path/to/Drivers.gz in the /usr/src/linux-<version> directory
[01:51] <Tech-Mike> ok...got a prob with mounted drive (hbd1)
[01:51] <bascule> KurdishSniper_: em not tar zxvf, gunzip
[01:51] <A2t3c13> it did install cause unless im mistaken im on their server
[01:51] <astro76> Gate, no, you would add the user to the desired group in /etc/group, or with GUI through system>administration>users and groups
[01:51] <KurdishSniper_> Bascule: many thanks bro
[01:51] <bascule> A2t3c13: the gui didn't
[01:51] <KurdishSniper_> ill try that...
[01:51] <Gate> astro76: they are LDAP authenticated via pam. no way to enumerate the users locally
[01:52] <Tech-Mike> the drive has been workn (mounting correctly) for the last week, now all of a sudden...it wont access it, shows its mounted but cant do anything with it
[01:52] <ziggy23> I have an external hard drive connected to my computer but Ubuntu does not recognize it.  Is there any easy way to force the drive to mount, and is there any easy way to for a relative Linux newbie to fix things so it does not happen again?
[01:52] <A2t3c13> all the developmental TOR stuff i have no want for at all and it seems like i am on them currently
[01:52] <Gate> hm. but /etc/group may handle if for me
[01:52] <bascule> KurdishSniper_: I think the easier way is to copy the .gz to /usr/src/linux<version> dir and gunzip it there
[01:53] <Pici> A2t3c13: you could ask in #tor
[01:53] <astro76> Gate, oh ok, I have no LDAP experience, but I'm pretty sure groups.conf isn't what you want
[01:53] <A2t3c13> my home name is there in the terminal and after it says videlia $
[01:53] <Gate> astro76: the simplification is I need to add users without having them existing locally.
[01:53] <A2t3c13> good idea but is any body even going to be there?
[01:54] <A2t3c13> nevermind thats a bad idea
[01:54] <Nyle> +hi
[01:54] <Tech-Mike> ...
[01:54] <Fonz82> hey guys
[01:55] <Nyle> I have a directory with 900 files in it, and they are extentionless.  I would like to add .pxt to the end of each filename.  How can I do this?
[01:55] <fxef> hello all
[01:55] <tarelerulz> Can't ubuntu ext3 work on a 500 gb hard drive ?
[01:55] <Dr_Willis> Nyle with a little bit of shell scripting - normally. Theres a few gui-bulk-renamer tools out also.
[01:55] <bascule> for i in *; do mv "$i" "$i".pxt; done <-- assuming all files are ok to be changed
[01:55] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz it works on mine.
[01:55] <vader1102> are the Canadian mirrors having problems? Could not connect to ca.archive.ubuntu.com:80 (206.167.141.10), connection timed out
[01:55] <vader1102>  this is what happens on the last 2 updating from the command
[01:56] <shal3r^> Nyle, for i in *; do mv $i $i.pxt; done
[01:56] <tarelerulz> any of you ran windows for a second hard drive ?
[01:56] <fujin> Nyle, for i in *; do mv $i $i.pxt; done
[01:56] <shal3r^> something like that
[01:56] <fujin> lol..
[01:56] <Nyle> bascule: could you maybe explain this to me ?
[01:56] <KurdishSniper_> Bascule: thanks bro, i am following your advice.
[01:56] <Nyle> I would rather not type a command in without really knowing how it works
[01:56] <shal3r^> :D
[01:56] <fujin> man bash
[01:56] <bascule> KurdishSniper_: ok
[01:56] <fujin> Nyle, man bash
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz yes. Its been done befor. :) depends on which version of windows, and how it got installed. you may have to tell grub to 'swap' the drives. assuming you mean a actual DRIVE not a partition.
[01:57] <shal3r^> I am having wlan0: link is not ready error when i try to connect to wireless. My wireless card is found and it`s rtl8180. What i can try to do to fix this?
[01:57] <bascule> Nyle: well are all 900 files in the same dir and no other files present?
[01:57] <PriceChild> Nyle, the first bit, "for i in *" tells bash that you want to assign i to every file in the CWD then do something with it.
[01:57] <Dr_Willis> Nyle theres dozens of bash gutides out there. :)
[01:57] <PriceChild> Nyle, the next part, "do mv $i $i.pxt;" says to move all of the i's from the previous part to their filename plus the extension
[01:57] <PriceChild> Nyle, the last bit "done" tells bash you're finished
[01:58] <tarelerulz> Dr_Willis , I mean real drive. I could not get windows or
 I have a win HD
[01:58] <tarelerulz> br
[01:58] <tarelerulz> %systemroot%\system32\cmd.exe
[01:59] <sgtmattbaker> bulmer: I am logged into ubuntu and can ping the windows pc (the ony I was trying to login from)
 not sure what you mean?
[02:00] <amjad> hello i have a question why does ubuntu does not use rpm and use apt
[02:00] <tarelerulz> I have windows on second slave drive and 500 gb drive is on mast
[02:01] <_mattd> does dapper make for a stable hosting option?
[02:01] <Gate> Ubuntu is debian based, amjad
[02:01] <Gate> debian invented .deb
[02:01] <amjad> ok
[02:01] <Pici> amjad: Well, Ubuntu is based off of debian which uses deb(apt) and not rpm
[02:01] <dgc2002> Would anybody be bored enough to help me with a partition question?
[02:01] <Gate> amjad: there is a holy war .rpm vs. .deb, they are slightly different ways of thinking if I am not mistaken.
[02:01] <tarelerulz> I was wondering if there is away to tell grub how to boot windows from second drive  . I know ubuntu can do that
[02:02] <Gate> Ubuntu can, but the windows boot.ini file will be the problem there, tarelerulz, tried it myself.
 What do you want to do?
[02:02] <Nyle> whoops
[02:02] <Grungebunny> revolutions per minute vs debbie for short.
[02:02] <Nyle> my wireless keyboard just died
[02:02] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: do this on ubuntu as root to see if you are detecting the ssh logon ..     tail -f /var/log/auth.log
[02:02] <Nyle> probably the batteries
[02:02] <Nyle> thanks guys
[02:02] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz you proberly need to manually add the proper grub ebntry to the config file. using the right commands to 'swap' the 2 hard drives. google for 'grub boot second windows drive' for examples of such entries.
[02:02] <Gate> tarelerulz: if you get boot.ini configured properly it will work fine, I think.
[02:02] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: then attempt the putty from your windows
[02:03] <osxdude|lap> 'Ello, I am trying to use tilp and I don't know which connection to use if I am using USB. What connection would I use?
[02:03] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz OR use the bios and tell IT to boot the 2nd hd when you want to boot to windows. (done that also)
[02:03] <Dr_Willis> windows can get irate when it boots off a drive it was not installed to (or the drive got moved)
[02:03] <dgc2002> I'm asking my question anyways :P I installed Ubuntu when my Windows HD died, i now have 2 hard drives working, one 70g one 400g. My 400g is used as storage so far. I installed ubuntu..i don't even know what hd its on, i go to install windows again and there are 3 partitions...i can't install XP on any of them without eraseing everything, and i'm hesitant to randomly format a partition. Could somebody help me figure this out =d
[02:03] <shal3r^> I am having wlan0: link is not ready error when i try to connect to wireless. My wireless card is found and it`s rtl8180. What i can try to do to fix this?
[02:04] <sgtmattbaker> I found it out... for some reason the internal IP is now 192.1.68.1.90 instead of .93 cause I am on ubuntu.. and my router doesnt even have that listed..
[02:04] <AndrewB> !ops
[02:04] <Ubotu> Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Burgundavia, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos, tonyyarusso, PriceChild, Amaranth, jrib, jenda, nixternal, Myrtti, mneptok or Pici
[02:04] <Dr_Willis> dgc2002  best would be to dedicate one drive just for windows and other for linux.
[02:04] <banda> I cant buut back on to ubuntu
[02:04] <troubled> AndrewB: ?
[02:04] <Pici> ?
[02:04] <banda> I mean I cant log back on to ubuntu!!!
[02:04] <shal3r^> I am having wlan0: link is not ready error when i try to connect to wireless. My wireless card is found and it`s rtl8180. What i can try to do to fix this?
[02:05] <PriceChild> Pici, read the backlog please... ;)
[02:05] <AndrewB> heh
[02:05] <dgc2002> Dr_Willis I figured i'd do that, but i'm not sure which partition is holding linux atm, so i'm not sure if its already on the 400gig hd i want it on
[02:05] <tarelerulz> I had my second hard drive  with ubuntu on it and I booted from it all the time.  when I took it out I could not boot anything on the main drive  on drive one
[02:05] <Dr_Willis> dgc2002   installing windows after linux. can be a hassle. :()   Normally i put windows on the first hd., and linux on the 2nd hd. if i need - i can remove the 2nd hd. so windows dont mess with it on an install.
[02:05] <AndrewB> Unless you have quits joins and parts on ignore
[02:05] <sgtmattbaker> bulmer: I found it out... for some reason the internal IP is now 192.1.68.1.90 instead of .93 cause I am on ubuntu.. and my router doesnt even have that listed..
[02:05] <banda> Im now using my live cd to try to fix it!!
[02:05] <dgc2002> Meh :(
[02:05] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz sounds like you confused grub.
[02:05] <dgc2002> I wanted to keep one HD purely storage, the 400g one is ideal
[02:05] <Dr_Willis> Grub is one of those tools thats worth learning/reading/experimenting with. :)
[02:06] <banda> I get a "/home in use error"
[02:06] <osxdude|lap> 'Ello, I am trying to use tilp and I don't know which connection to use if I am using USB. What connection would I use?
[02:06] <dgc2002> I've tried to open grub in Ubuntu but failed to do so >.>
[02:06] <Dr_Willis> dgc2002 then you will need to resize the linux installs.
[02:06] <tarelerulz> I get error 5 now
[02:06] <tarelerulz> I can't boot anything
[02:06] <Dr_Willis> dgc2002 then after windows isntalls  you will have to edit teh grub menus, and reinstall grub. and perhaps the fstab entries also.
[02:06] <sgtmattbaker> why did my internal IP address change for my PC when I booted Ubuntu?
[02:06] <shal3r^> omg, i am asking my question every 5 minutes for somw last hours and nobody can answer :(
 When Ububtu installed Grub it added my Win drive to Grub.
[02:06] <sgtmattbaker> the IP isnt even listed on the page...
[02:07] <banda> cI cnat log in any more
[02:07] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: your ubuntu client requested an ip and it got .93 or it was given .93 by the router's dhcp server
[02:07] <sgtmattbaker> bulmer: no it is .90
[02:07] <dgc2002> I have Grub partition editor but i can't create a new partition on either drive. I'll keep messing with it, i don't have anything installed on linux that i can't delete. So i  might just uninstall Ubuntu, install XP on whatever i can without formating(i have information on the 70gig i wanna keep same with the 400g) then figure it out from there
[02:07] <tarelerulz> Ubuntu add my windows too and I add the other ubuntu myself
[02:08] <sgtmattbaker> when I am in Windows (or was in windows I havent tried it yet) it was .93
[02:08] <jvai> shal3r^, right clik on network manager, set it for "wlan"
[02:08] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: whichever, so you have to know the ip address of the remote host you need to connect to..
[02:08] <tarelerulz> I am lost as to  why grub  can't find windows or ubuntu
[02:08] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: then try it
[02:08] <sgtmattbaker> bulmer: but why did it change from .93 to .90 when I booted into Ubuntu?  and why isnt that IP listed on the router page (the IP works)
[02:08] <tarelerulz> I don't think i put grub on the second hard drive
[02:08] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: your ubuntu client requested an ip and it got .93 or it was given .93 by the router's dhcp server
[02:09] <sgtmattbaker> but it isnt .93
[02:09] <shal3r^> jvai, i think that its not related to my problem
[02:09] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: its not guaranteed same ip will always be given
[02:09] <bulmer> by the dhcp server
[02:09] <jvai> oo my bad @ shal3r^
[02:09] <sgtmattbaker> then why isnt the IP listed on the router page
[02:09] <sgtmattbaker> it has the .93 one like it was in windows
[02:10] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: i dont know what you are looking at, read it carefully, go refresh it again, ie clear your browser cache when viewing
[02:10] <tarelerulz> How do I just rewrite grub so I can use my system again

[02:10] <shal3r^> jvai, stop these bad jokes. i am fu*king tired off becouse of that wireless card. i am fighting with it all day
[02:10] <sgtmattbaker> and it says 192.168.1.93 and unknown for the device type
[02:10] <sgtmattbaker> but .90 doesnt show up
[02:11] <Edi> hello...im so depressed :(
[02:11] <coreymon77> oh, wireless card problems?
[02:11] <jvai> shal3r^,  is it an external wifi card?
[02:11] <coreymon77> what card?
[02:11] <shal3r^> jvai, PCI card
[02:11] <dgc2002> Dr_Willis, the only reason i'm even bothering with dual booting is because WoW hangs up while trying to load existing chars...i need my WoWarcrack!!
[02:11] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: what about the .90? i told you, dhcp does not guarantee doling out same ip unless configured specific way
[02:11] <shal3r^> realtek, rtk8185
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> dgc2002 just give it up man.. Your life will be better for it. :)
[02:12] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: count how many ip addresses the dhcp had dole out...does it add up?
[02:12] <dgc2002> NOEESSSS. You give it up when you live 20 miles from the nearest town and all you see are fields and cows :P
[02:12] <jvai> driver issues shal3r^ , i had fits with them...
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> dgc2002 irc is the ultimate MMORPG.
[02:12] <^Ocean^> okay I got a dual-os System..   Reinstalled windows accidiently killed the MBR So grubs not there..   Off a live CD is there a boot option I can pass just too have it boot up the hda2 partition, vs tryin to boot the live CD so i can reload grub ?
[02:12] <coreymon77> dgc2002: take this as your chance to overcome your addiction
 grub should be installed to masters drive.
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> on IRC no one knows you are a cow.
[02:13] <jvai> dapper on up versions just fart on external cards
[02:13] <dgc2002> I'm not really addicted to it, i know game addiction..lost 4 years of my life to RuneScape :P This is more of a time waster, and a way to stay in contact with a good friend that moved away :P

[02:14] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz now that you have clarired it.. you need to 'reinstall the windows boot record' after removing the linxu drive.
[02:15] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz boot the xp rescue mode and use the 'fixmbr' command.
[02:15] <bulmer> ^Ocean^: once you are booted off of the liveCD, then chroot /, then mount the partition where grub should be, and then do a grub-install   man the pages for correct options
 I think part of Grub is installed on the Linux drive
[02:16] <Dr_Willis> Grub is normally on the MBR of HD #1 - if its accessing files on hd #2 and you remove hd #2 - well it gets broken.
[02:16] <orionr> firefox has been cashing very often now does anyone have any advice of how to fix that?
[02:16] <^Ocean^> bulmer, so mount /dev/hda2 /mnt  then , chroot /mnt
[02:16] <Dr_Willis> if thers no linux on the system now. No need for grub on hda any more
[02:16] <dgc2002> I spose my problem may be fixed if winehq actually had a working download link for the latest Wine 64bit version >.>
[02:16] <rathel> I am having a issue with my WiFi on my laptop, it works but when I go afk and come back it stops working, than I have to disable and enable the card to get it working, how can I keep it working? thanks.

[02:16] <Dr_Willis> dgc2002 im suprised there even IS a wine64bit version.
[02:16] <bulmer> ^Ocean^: no, once you have booted off the liveCD , just chroot /
[02:16] <Grungebunny> orionr is it when you've watched an inbedded video clip like on youtube?
[02:17] <rathel> coreymon77, atheroes.. I believe. lemme look.

[02:17] <sgtmattbaker> bulmer: I dont understand.. I ahve to go though be back in 30 minutes
[02:17] <Grungebunny> orionr I got the same issue
 if you want to boot only master drive you must rebuild the MBR

[02:18] <orionr> Grungebunny: it didnt used to do it for me did it do it for you?
[02:18] <annihilus> is anyone here using uswsusp and also have an intel wireless card
[02:18] <rathel> coral, it's built-in.

[02:18] <bulmer> osxdude|laptop: does TILP have a manual you can read? maybe google for the manual ?
[02:18] <Pelo> annihilus, you might have better luck looking it up in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org
[02:19] <macogw> PhilKC: you around?
[02:19] <annihilus> Pelo, thanks, checked there just having no luck so i gave it a try :)
[02:19] <bulmer> osxdude|laptop: we also dont know what selections there is if any..clarify what you meant by which connection to use?
[02:19] <DavidCraft> how do you figure out the free space on a disk??
[02:19] <tarelerulz> my hat is off to the people that make ubuntu if I am see this right .  What does map (hd0) (hd1) map (hd1) (hd0)
[02:19] <bulmer> DavidCraft: df -h
[02:19] <rathel> DavidCraft, df -h
[02:19] <coreymon77> rathel: do you know the actual card though?
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz that would swap hd0 with hd1 -
[02:20] <rathel> coreymon77, nope my laptop is sony pcg-k23.
[02:20] <tseug> hello,  question:  how do i see if an unwanted client is mooching my internet?
[02:20] <Pelo> annihilus, in here it's better to ask specific questions then to ask for general help or a user with relevent knowlegde,   ppl might not know about yor peripheral but they might know about what you need to do
[02:20] <tarelerulz> Dr_willis I hope that means I could boot windows from the second drive
[02:21] <Pelo> tseug, wifi ?  access your router and  see who's connected to it
[02:21] <phogg> tseug: I'd add an iptables rule to log forwards of unexpected IPs. Assuming a NAT'd wireless box.
[02:21] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz thats one way to do it.. assuming windows was installed to the 2nd hd while it was actually a first hd..
[02:21] <annihilus> Pelo, understood, just expending some options
[02:21] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz trivial to try it and see. :)
[02:21] <tarelerulz> I hope if I did not miss up grub to bad on it or mrb or something . I could butt windows.
[02:21] <tseug> oh, if i access my router, it will tell me who's connected?
[02:22] <tseug> now,   how do i access my router
[02:22] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz you can edit/add/do grub commands from the grub menus. :)  if ya know how.
[02:22] <tseug> for windows, i can't seem to do anything with it
[02:22] <macogw> seanw: you around?
[02:22] <Dr_Willis> Grub is a bit amazing.
[02:22] <coreymon77> tseug: 192.168.1.1 usually works
[02:22] <Pelo> tseug,  in windows ?  open the dos windows type iptable , find the gateway ip,  put that in your browser
[02:23] <macogw> tseug: depends on the router.  on linksys ones, go to 192.168.1.1 in firefox, log in with username admin and password admin (unless you changed it, which if you don't know how to find it is unlikely)
[02:23] <bulmer> tseug: Pelo meant ifconfig not iptable to find the gateway ip
[02:23] <Pelo> bulmer,  he asked for windows
[02:24] <tseug> ok thanks for your help
[02:24] <bulmer> rather ipconfig  i make a typo too
[02:24] <dgc2002> OH i know what question i can ask! =d For some reason i can't edit/save certian text files, because they are read only. I'm wondering how i can change this, i can't seem to find a way >.>
[02:24] <bulmer> windows command is...easy to forget.. :)
[02:24] <phogg> dgc2002: chmod u+r thefile
[02:25] <tarelerulz> It worked . I can boot windows from the second hard drive. Ubuntu makes . I love you guys for make my dreams come true
[02:25] <phogg> dgc2002: but if a file is read-only it is probably also owned by another user, so that wont wor
[02:25] <dgc2002> You have no clue how far you just went above my head
[02:25] <Pelo> tarelerulz,  if you are instlling windows to another hdd,  make sure that the windows hdd is set to boot in the bios first,  otherwise it misght mess up your mbr on the ubuntu hdd
[02:25] <dgc2002> I'm the only user on this computer
[02:25] <Grungebunny> dgc2002 you can also sudo gedit the txt file.. if thats what it is.
[02:25] <phogg> dgc2002: Most file managers have permissions modification in the file properties window.
[02:25] <^Ocean^> Can I get a net boot CD Too boot a Partition
[02:25] <Pelo> bulmer,  espcialy if you haven't realy used windows in over a year
[02:25] <^Ocean^> Can I get a netinstall boot CD Too boot a local linux Partition
[02:26] <DavidCraft> I try to log in and I get this message, what does this mean ->'gdm could not write your athorization file'
[02:26] <phogg> dgc2002: you want Read permission. But probably you will not have permission to change permissions on the file, since if it's read only you are probably not the owner. Only the owner and root can cange permissions.
[02:26] <Pelo> ^Ocean^, what ?
[02:26] <rathel> I need some help with Atheros WiFi on my laptop, it works at first then I go afk come back then it doesnt work, I then have to disable than re-enable it.
[02:27] <Pelo> DavidCraft,  do a search for the error msg in the forum and in google , I'm sure you'll find a fix
[02:27] <phogg> dgc2002: even if you are the only human-user of the computer there are still probably at least a dozen other 'users' on the system who own certain files for security reasons, most notably root.
[02:27] <orionr> Grungebunny: reinstall your flash plug should help someone on the firefox irc told me that
[02:27] <dgc2002> Hmm, i'm the only user on this computer i'm not sure how, durring the instilation, i managed to not make my account owner
[02:27] <^Ocean^> Pelo: I have ubuntu installed on /dev/hda2 windows on /dev/hda1  re-installed windows,   killed grub   cant boot linux,  I have a ubuntu net-install boot CD  Can i use that CD too boot my /dev/hda2 partition ?
[02:27] <DavidCraft> Pelo: thanks for the AWSOME tip...
[02:28] <phogg> dgc2002: what file are you having trouble with?
[02:28] <dgc2002> Config.wtf
[02:28] <phogg> dgc2002: a file is owned by the user who created it, unless ownership is changed later. Most files on your system will not be owned by your user's account. This is by design.
[02:28] <Pelo> ^Ocean^,  get the supergrub cd , or grub super cd , or something,  you can restore the ubuntu mbr with that , check the links ubotu will give you , some where near the bottom of one of those page there is a link

[02:29] <Pelo> DavidCraft,  if you have some problems with grub after ward let me know , I've done this a few times
[02:30] <phogg> dgc2002: so it's an external disk? Is it formatted NTFS?
[02:30] <dgc2002> Its a 2ndary hard drive
[02:30] <dgc2002> I formatted it in windows, i believe in NTFS
[02:31] <DavidCraft> um it says I have 0 k free... iv deleted things and it still shows as 0 bytes free.  what exacly is going on
[02:31] <phogg> dgc2002: ah, that explains it. Linux support for NTFS is still evolving. Most distributions up until just recently provide read-only support, no write support, on ntfs.
[02:31] <simmerz> do the live cds for ubuntu have debootstrap on them?
[02:31] <DARKGuy> hey guys, is there a way to make my left-alt key "work" when I'm using some programs? Diablo II and WoW don't take the left alt key in account, and I've disabled the ralt_switch line in xorg.conf and I'm running it in a single X with no DE or WM. Any help?
[02:31] <dgc2002> Well shit XD
[02:31] <Pelo> DavidCraft,  what bit are you doing exactly ?
[02:31] <orionr> does anyone know how to uninstall the flash plug?
[02:31] <dgc2002> I have a VERY slow internet connection or i would simply re-install WoW under this account and just update it
[02:31] <xfreakk> I FUCKING LOVE LINUX
[02:31] <phogg> dgc2002: For ubuntu I am not sure... maybe the newest one uses ntfs-3g, but I doubt it. You'll need to copy the filke to somewhere else to write to it, or get ntfs-3g working. There are some howtos on that.
[02:31] <DARKGuy> ME TOO >_>
[02:31] <Pelo> orionr,   in synaptic flash non free
[02:32] <DavidCraft> Pelo: I accedently filled the disk I was on
[02:32] <xfreakk> hey is there a WoW for linux
[02:32] <DavidCraft> and it says there is no free space left
[02:32] <dgc2002> Allright, i'll try a few options i'm throwing around
[02:32] <DARKGuy> no, you gotta emulate it through wine
[02:32] <tiax> DARKGuy: are you using GNOME? Chances are it catches alt+mouseclick+mousemovement as "move the window" (which can be turned off)
[02:32] <dgc2002> Thanks for the help :) The linux community lives up to its good name ;)
[02:32] <orionr> Pelo: i removed it from there but flash is still working on webpages??
[02:32] <tarelerulz> I boot into windows and it says it found new hardware the hard drive . I have ext3 drive install for windows .   If I run the wizard will it try to format the drive
[02:32] <Pelo> DavidCraft, how did you accidently do this ?
[02:32] <DavidCraft> so i deleted about 40mb of stuff and it still shows no free space
[02:32] <DARKGuy> tiax: nope, I said I'm running it in a bare X with no Desktop Environment or Window Manager, plain xinit :P

[02:32] <xfreakk> does wine have a GUI
[02:32] <DavidCraft> it is a 4 gig drive, and I installed some updates
[02:32] <Pelo> orionr,  search in /home/user/.mozilla  delete the stuff there
[02:32] <kapace> why can't you use sudo for gtk apps?
[02:33] <DARKGuy> xfreakk: it's easy, and it has a GUI for configuring - gotta get used to the terminal ;) - www.winehq.org
[02:33] <Pelo> orionr, delete the flash stuff there
[02:33] <astro76> !gksudo | kapace good explanation at this link
[02:33] <Ubotu> kapace good explanation at this link: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[02:33] <tarelerulz> Don't want to undo all the ubuntu magic I got going and be back to  squre one
[02:33] <xfreakk> DARKGuy: Thanks and im getting used to it, just havent figured out Jack and Wine

[02:38] <DavidCraft> Pelo: I am root, and the autoclean didnt seam to do anything
[02:39] <astro76> DavidCraft, dumb question, but you're running from the system that is out of space? (not a livecd?)
[02:39] <nugget93> ok 1.) My up and down keys don't work so i cant select Windows, Im dual booting                        2.) How can i edit the GRUB so it automatically runs windows?

[02:41] <frogzoo> nugget93: 2) to change grub's default OS, change 'default' in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:41] <Pelo> nugget93,  open ubuntu , type gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst   change the default line for the number of the windows entry,   the numbering starts at 0 ,  and from the boot menu you can use numbers to select your os I beleive

[02:43] <Pici> macogw: pm
[02:44] <Pelo> nugget93,  now that I think about it , if you can'T use the keyboard properly before you get to grub this is not a problem with ubuntu or grub, this is either a problem with your bios or with your keybaord
[02:44] <xfreakk> hey guys im back

[02:46] <astro76> !gksudo | Grungebunny xfreakk
[02:46] <Ubotu> Grungebunny xfreakk: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[02:47] <Grungebunny> or gksudo
[02:47] <xfreakk> grungebunny : thnx
[02:47] <Pelo> xjman, if you know where to get it yeah no problem
[02:47] <astro76> Grungebunny, I know it works for gedit... but it's bad to recommend :)
[02:47] <Pelo> LinuxProbie, how are you getting his update ? throught the ubuntu update manager or is this cvs on azureus ?
[02:48] <Lambchops> is there a good way to get the "build-essential" stuff since ca.archive.ubuntu.com is down?
[02:48] <astro76> Lambchops, change to archive.ubuntu.com
[02:48] <Pelo> Lambchops, it's on the install cd
[02:48] <CountX> how do you get the emerald themer to apply the theme?
[02:48] <Kissablysoft> hi all
[02:48] <Lambchops> How to I change to archive.ubuntu.com?
[02:49] <Pelo> CountX, ask in #ubuntu-effects

[02:49] <Spaz1331> network-manager question -- how do you get rid of a VPN settings....  (My college supposedly has PPTP setup, but not really, so I want to get rid of the cruft now)
[02:49] <macogw> CountX: should just have to click it...should automatically change your window borders
[02:49] <astro76> Lambchops, easiest way is for that is to edit /etc/apt/sources.list by hand (gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list)
[02:49] <Lambchops> okay, thanks :D
[02:49] <Lambchops> You guys are SO HELPFUL!!!
[02:49] <astro76> Lambchops, but you could use system>admin>software sources too
[02:50] <macogw> Spaz1331: left click on NM, go to VPN -> configure VPN, then delete the ones you dont want anymore
[02:50] <DaveG> hey, i'm using hte ubuntu live CD, and any time i try and boot i just get a blank screen and nothing displays, but i've got into safe mode and it works now... doesn't ubuntu 7.04 like a DVI cable with a geforce 8800 ?
[02:50] <Spark> hi, why does linux/config.h not exist in linux-headers-generic on feisty?
[02:51] <DARKGuy> hey guys, is there a way to make my left-alt key "work" when I'm using some programs? Diablo II and WoW don't take the left alt key in account, and I've disabled the ralt_switch line in xorg.conf and I'm running it in a single X with no DE or WM. Any help?
[02:51] <Spark> it does in many other kernel versions, but seems to have been forgotten for 2.6.20
[02:51] <Spaz1331> macogw I think I did that a week ago... when I do it now the list is empty, but it still has a radio button for the test VPN I'd setup, lol
[02:51] <Spark> this file is required for things to compile, but i have no idea what it actually is
[02:51] <Spark> or where the bug lies
[02:51] <astro76> DaveG, I think it's the geforce 8800 period http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-328379.html
[02:52] <macogw> Spaz1331: so there are no VPN options listed, but you want to take VPN off the menu?  you can just uninstall network-manager-vpnc
[02:52] <Kissablysoft> I have a VT82C686 on-board sound system, and the hardware information says that it recognizes it, and has loaded the via82xx driver for it, but still have no sound. Any ideas?
[02:52] <Spaz1331> macogw apt-get says Package network-manager-vpnc is not installed, so not removed
[02:52] <jrib> 3~/sb end
[02:53] <macogw> Spaz1331: then how'd you get vpn stuff into your network manager?

[02:53] <fabiodf2> hi... anyone have the DEB package wammu 0.22 ?
[02:53] <Ciorapel> hello . How do I make my NTFS writable ?
[02:53] <astro76> !ntfs-3g | Ciorapel
[02:53] <Ubotu> Ciorapel: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions

[02:54] <macogw> Spaz1331: setting up PPTP added VPN?
[02:54] <Spaz1331> macogw probably by following a ubuntu forum post on setting up PPTP... and I can't find any text config file that refernces that "testing @ yok" vpn that's in the list still
[02:55] <DaveG> astri76 i also have another install of ubuntu on another hard disk... it does the exact same thing as when it boots to the live cd. any ideas on how to fix that?
[02:55] <LinuxProbie> astro76, thx
[02:55] <macogw> Spaz1331: did you have network-manager-vpnc before and uninstall it already?
[02:55] <Ciorapel> thanx alot !
[02:55] <astro76> DaveG, same video card?
[02:55] <DaveG> astro76: yeah
[02:55] <Spaz1331> macogw that, or when I setup IPSec, but I configured that through the command line -- never touched NM.  I don't think I ever had NM-vpnc installed
[02:55] <fabiodf2> hi... anyone have the DEB package wammu 0.22 ?
[02:55] <astro76> DaveG, I would assume it's the same issue then
 I have an old slackware 4.0 install CD  Can I get Lilo too BOOT my partition up ?  From the CD ?
[02:56] <Spaz1331> macgw maybe I could install NM-vpnc then do a complete removal to 'clean up'
[02:56] <macogw> Spaz1331: hmm weird...i was gonna say maybe if you had the package before, it was using plain remove instead of remove --purge that left it... have you rebooted since you tried undoing things, by any chance?
[02:56] <astro76> !info wammu | fabiodf2
[02:56] <Ubotu> fabiodf2: wammu: Phone manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.17-1 (feisty), package size 201 kB, installed size 1040 kB
[02:56] <macogw> Spaz1331: yeah you could try installing it then "sudo apt-get remove --purge network-manager-vpnc"
[02:56] <Ciorapel> Mounting /media/sda5 failed.
[02:56] <DaveG> astro76: so i guess i have to reinstall my drivers yeah?
[02:57] <Spaz1331> I'll try that out,,, thanks macogw!
[02:57] <DARKGuy> hey guys, is there a way to make my left-alt key "work" when I'm using some programs? Diablo II and WoW don't take the left alt key in account, and I've disabled the ralt_switch line in xorg.conf and I'm running it in a single X with no DE or WM. The ALT key --works-- when I hold the left shift key though... it's confusing :/. Any help?
[02:57] <astro76> DaveG, both those links mention installing the drivers from nvidia's site
[02:57] <DaveG> astro76: both? i only saw one xD
[02:58] <orion1> is anyone here an expert with the network-manager program?

[02:58] <xyverz> yes
[02:58] <xyverz> it does
[02:58] <astro76> DaveG, I just googled nvidia 8800 ubuntu ;)
[02:59] <dgc2002> Does anybody know a site with a mirror of Wine 0.9.44 64bit version?
[02:59] <LinuxProbie> o.o'
[02:59] <ziroday> My F* keys dont work on my wireless logitech keyboard. Anyway for me to map them correctly?
[02:59] <Sajes> Then I must've configured them wrong, or something..  Whenever I disable X, it goes to a black screen and doesn't align with the monitor correctly.
[02:59] <macogw> Sajes: yes, they're there, but if you have an X3000/i965, you'll want xserver-xorg-video-intel instead of -i810
[02:59] <LinuxProbie> Uhm has anyone else's apt-get said this -  This APT has Super Cow Powers. Moo!
[02:59] <dgc2002> THe actual link on winehq is down...and i believe that will fix the problem i have
[02:59] <macogw> LinuxProbie: yes, that's an easter egg
[02:59] <Sajes> Let me check what modle I have.
[02:59] <Sajes> module*
[02:59] <macogw> LinuxProbie: try typing "apt-get moo" and see what happens
[03:00] <Ciorapel> I got a problem on ntfs-config
[03:00] <Sajes> Okay. It's an Intel(R) 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics controller. :o
[03:00] <Sajes> Integrated.
[03:00] <Ciorapel> $LogFile indicates unclean shutdown (0, 0)
[03:00] <Ciorapel> Failed to mount '/dev/disk/by-uuid/5E7C56BC7C568F21': Operation not supported
[03:00] <Ciorapel> This is the error
[03:01] <MikeTheC> apt-get moo is awesome...
[03:01] <macogw> Sajes: 845 should work with the default ones
[03:01] <macogw> Sajes: does your regular gui work right?
[03:01] <Sajes> Yes.
[03:01] <Sajes> But after the X server stops it doesn't align with my monitor properly for some reason.
[03:01] <macogw> Sajes: if it's *just* the virtual terminal, it's probably framebuffer.  ive heard old intel's were weird so you need to turn on framebuffer
[03:02] <Sajes> Where would I do that? :o
[03:02] <pianoboy3333> What programs can I use for a logitech web cam? Ex, for taking pictures, using them with pidgin... etc
[03:02] <Dr_Willis> or turn off framebuffer. :)
[03:02] <arkanes> anyone have any suggestion for a launchy-style application for gnome? deskbar applet is glitchy and doesn't accept the alt-space hotkey
[03:02] <orion1> for some reason the network-manager is picking up my wirelesses network and saying its name is linksys but its not. but when i go to connect to other wireless netowrk and type in its real name it works fine. any idea why that is?
[03:02] <macogw> Sajes: you can do it on each boot in grub, or you can add it to /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:03] <Grungebunny> arkanes did you check out gdesklets?
[03:03] <macogw> orion1: its probably connecting to somebody else's network
[03:03] <Max_-> Please help me with my X server problem : http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070911160221AAy7OY8
[03:03] <arkanes> Grungebunny: I didn't see any that work the same way
[03:03] <orion1> macogwa: im not 100% sure
[03:03] <Sajes> Ah. Thanks. Now I have another question - If I emulate Windows in Linux, will I be able to use my Winmodem to connect in the virtualized Windows, and use that connection in Ubuntu?
[03:03] <Grungebunny> Max_ try posting it in ubuntuforums.org as well
[03:04] <Ciorapel> Guys. $LogFile indicates unclean shutdown (0, 0) on NTFS-Config. I DO NOT have windows :|
[03:04] <macogw> Sajes: there's a line in /boot/grub/menu.lst (use "gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" to mess with it) that starts with #defoptions, you add vga= and a number (check google for the number)
[03:04] <Sajes> I tried the linuxant drivers for my modem but.. sadly, they must not be compatible with my modem. :o
[03:04] <arkanes> Sajes: I would be amazed beyond believe if that worked
[03:04] <macogw> Sajes: i dont think the network can be shared in that direction, just the reverse
[03:05] <macogw> Sajes: perhaps the windows drivers + ndiswrapper?  does anyone know if ndiswrapper works for things besides wireless?
[03:05] <Sajes> Ah.. So I should just invest in a hardware modem?
[03:05] <root__> hi guys, i've a problem with my ati drivers
[03:05] <fabiodf2> i need wammu 0.22, anybody have the DEB package ?
[03:05] <astro76> Sajes, pretty much
[03:05] <arkanes> ndiswrapper was originally invented for winmodems, so odds are good
[03:05] <macogw> root__: yeah, every ati user does ;)
[03:05] <simmerz> do the live cds for ubuntu have debootstrap on them?
[03:05] <root__> my monitor is dislocated
[03:05] <Ciorapel> So ... nobody knows why I get the NTFS error ? :|
[03:05] <arkanes> hardware modems are better for a lot of reasons though, back when it mattered I spent the extra 30 bucks on one and never regretted it
[03:06] <root__> if i set it well trought monitor options, when I start windows, it appears with a bad view
[03:06] <gkirk> hey all, I'd like to set up a mail server on ubuntu, but I don't have much experience with that, and I'm a little wary of it being used as a mail relay and such. all the how-tos for postfix on ubuntu seem more elaborate than what I need
[03:06] <Sajes> arkanes, I heard they were better because it uses the actual hardware to do all of the work, unlike winmodems.
[03:06] <LinuxProbie> how do I change the permissions of a folder, and everything within it?
[03:06] <jackson> Hi, I was wondering if any of you have experience installing Ubuntu from Vista without the use of any Cds/DVDs
[03:06] <root__> i've installed fglrx but nothing...
[03:06] <arkanes> Sajes: thats correct
[03:06] <orion1> does anyone know if there is a way to clear all the networks that you have connected to and stored the keys in your computer from network-manager?
[03:07] <Xenguy> jackson: chmod -R
[03:07] <macogw> LinuxProbie: chmod, but what are you changing?  if it's outside /home, *don't do it unless you know /exactly/ what you are doing*
[03:07] <Sajes> arkanes, Cool. Are all external modems hardware modems, or do I still have a chance of getting an external winmodem? That would bite.
[03:07] <arkanes> Sajes: I don't really know, it was years ago that I got mine
[03:07] <Ciorapel> How do I clean NTFS logfile ?
[03:07] <LinuxProbie> macogw, I;m changing the folder for my azureus so it can update itself.
[03:07] <riotkittie> i cant connect again.  i hate wireless. :|
[03:07] <jackson> Xenguy, eh? I don't believe that had anything to do with what I was asking
[03:07] <youknowme> Is there another program similar to Speedfan that I can use to check temperatures and change fan speeds in Linux?
[03:07] <arkanes> Sajes: they're generally labelled as hardware modems if they are, and unlabelled if not
[03:07] <PidG30n> Anyone willing to help me sort of my nvidia problem on ubuntu 7.10 herd 5?
[03:07] <Xenguy> jackson: right
[03:07] <astro76> orion1, system>administration>keyring manager, you might have to right click and edit menus to add it
[03:07] <PidG30n> pm me, if so... this chat is crowded
[03:07] <Sajes> Ah. I'll check Newegg and Tigerdirect to see if I can find a cheapish decent one.
[03:07] <macogw> PidG30n: #ubuntu+1 probably is

[03:09] <BAdz_> is there a fix for gdesklets to appear on each desktop workspace at login?
[03:09] <LinuxProbie> Xenguy, doing it that way gives me an error says I;m missing an operand
[03:10] <SnarkyTwit> you can have a cd sent to you Jackson
[03:10] <kitche> !wubi | jackson
[03:10] <Ubotu> jackson: wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[03:10] <Xenguy> LinuxProbie: it's just wrong syntax probably; what are you typing then?
[03:10] <Grungebunny> jackson there is wubi.. but I don't know if it works on vista.. it may just be xp.
[03:10] <youknowme> Is there another program similar to Speedfan that I can use to check temperatures and change fan speeds in Linux?
[03:10] <CountX> under system>shutdown it wont let me shut down, just log out and staqndby, hibernate, no shutdown or restart
[03:10] <LinuxProbie> chmod -R /opt/
[03:10] <kitche> youknowme, lm-sensors has fancontrol
[03:10] <jackson> I've heard bad things about wubi
[03:10] <bigmb> Is there any way with terminal to get system specs (amount of RAM, processor speed, etc)
[03:10] <Dr_Willis> jackson so hae i
[03:11] <macogw> LinuxProbie: nothing outside of ~ should have higher permissions than 755
[03:11] <Grungebunny> jackson I run it on a comp in which the cd rom doesn't work.. ive had no issues with it.
[03:11] <Sajes> Oh, yeah.. one more problem.. I'm not sure what's causing this - But on boot-up, you know how you get the loading screen with the orange bar? well.. I don't.
[03:11] <Pc_Dark> bigmb, top
[03:11] <kitche> bigmb, yes but to get a nice layout for all of htem at once you need a shell script
[03:11] <youknowme> kitche, I have googled and googled but I cannot figure out how to actually USE lm-sensors. Help?
[03:11] <macogw> LinuxProbie: why do you need to chmod /opt to update it?
[03:11] <Sajes> I tried it on a friends comp with Live CD and it worked fine and showed the screen.. but not on my computer.
[03:11] <jackson> Grungebunny, is it actually a real install of Ubuntu, or more like a Live CD?
[03:11] <Grungebunny> jackson real install.. with dual boot and all.
[03:11] <LinuxProbie> macogw, because that may be the reason it can't update.
[03:11] <bigmb> how about, then, just to see how fast the processor is?
[03:12] <macogw> LinuxProbie: how are you updating it?
[03:12] <jackson> alright, thanks
[03:12] <Grungebunny> jackson the only difference there isn't a separate partition..
[03:12] <macogw> LinuxProbie: with a deb or compiling?
[03:12] <LinuxProbie> macogw, from inside azureus itself.
[03:12] <LinuxProbie> macogw, it updates itself.
[03:12] <macogw> LinuxProbie: run azureus as root
[03:12] <macogw> LinuxProbie: and update it that way
[03:12] <LinuxProbie> macogw, that didn't help.
[03:12] <matax> good night
[03:12] <Dr_Willis> You are better off installing azureus/running it from a users home dir. if you want it to auto-update
[03:13] <Xenguy> LinuxProbie: I hesitate to make a recommendation because I don't think you should be changing permissions there - could be risky :-/
[03:13] <macogw> LinuxProbie: "gksu azureus" then update doesn't work?  root has access to everything, so if as root it doesn't work, that's not the problem
[03:13] <Dr_Willis> azureu's auto updating + package managing.. can cause.. issues. :)
[03:13] <macogw> yeah
[03:13] <Dr_Willis> I just install it as my user, in his own home dir.
[03:13] <Dr_Willis> MUCH safer
[03:13] <matax> i'm no speak english, need help with a program gEDA

[03:13] <Sajes> Hm.. Anyone know if TRENDnet is a good modem brand? It says it works in Linux, so now I just need to know if it's a reliable modem brand-name.
[03:14] <macogw> most programs have their autoupdaters  disabled when packaged
[03:14] <macogw> matax: what language do you speak?

[03:15] <jmdc> I'm trying to use socket 8081, and having problems. A website I want to connect to uses that port, and I can't get to it. Other machines confirm that the website is up. Back on this machine, I've flushed iptables and still have no luck. Then I thought to test the port by having sshd listen on 8081. After restarting sshd, I get a reset by peer  error when I try to connect on 8081.
[03:15] <Sajes> The one I'm looking at is a Serial Port modem. I was told that most USB modems drop the connection often.
[03:15] <regfire> anyone recommend a good video capture device(preferred USB) for Myth? The catch is I need firewire capture also.
[03:15] <Dr_Willis> Sajes you are refering to a good old Dialup Modem?
[03:15] <matax> i'm speak spanish
[03:16] <Sajes> Oh yes. :) I forgot to mention I was on dial up lol.
[03:16] <Darryl> Ok I got a major problem with Ubuntu, can someone help me out?
[03:16] <macogw> Sajes: there's none thatll just go from cat3 to cat5?
[03:16] <Jordan_U_> !es | matax
[03:16] <Ubotu> matax: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[03:16] <macogw> matax: va a #ubuntu-es
[03:16] <Sajes> Not sure. I didn't check.
[03:16] <macogw> Sajes: i think we assumed that.  there aren't (as far as i'm aware) winmodems of any other type
[03:16] <matax> no no alli no saben mada de eso :S
[03:17] <LinuxProbie> macogw, That seems to have worked, but I don't wanna have to run azureus from the terminal all the time...
[03:17] <macogw> LinuxProbie: just for updates would you have to do that
[03:17] <macogw> LinuxProbie: normally, you should not run it as root...bad for security
[03:17] <Sajes> ;) quite frankly I don't know what you're talking about with "cat3" and "cat5" , all I know is they're a wire type for phone lines.
[03:17] <macogw> Sajes: cat3 = phone line, cat5 = ethernet
[03:17] <regfire> anyone recommend a good video capture device(preferred USB) for Myth? The catch is I need firewire capture also.
[03:18] <Darryl> I ran into a serious problem after installing nVidia drivers for my 8800 GTX card...X Window won't start, says to fix GDM then restart it. Then goes to what looks like a giant Terminal window
[03:18] <Sajes> Oh, I see. In that case, I have cat3.
[03:18] <macogw> matax: no hablo mucho espaol, lo siento
[03:18] <macogw> Sajes: right so im asking if there are any modems that take in a phone line and output ethernet instead of serial
[03:19] <regfire> anyone?
[03:19] <macogw> Sajes: i have no idea if they exist, but that's why i'm asking
[03:19] <Sajes> Not sure, I've never seen one like that.
[03:19] <matax> solo queria saber del program gEDA algun user manual
[03:19] <arkanes> I used to have a home router that had a serial port and could dial up a modem, then route that connection
[03:19] <arkanes> I doubt you can even buy them anymore though

[03:20] <arkanes> if you can, mine was from SMC
[03:20] <regfire> ?
[03:20] <sdfsdfwer234> does anyone know of a free online backup solution that would work with linux?
[03:20] <Sajes> Excellent. From what I've read about the modem I mentioned earlier, they're good for internet use but suck for faxing.. I don't do much faxing though.
[03:20] <Max_-> Please help me with my X server problem : http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070911160221AAy7OY8
[03:20] <matax> thaks good night
[03:21] <macogw> matax: no penso.  yo he estudiar espaol en escuela, pero en 5 aos? no.
[03:21] <regfire> i must be doing something wrong then
[03:22] <macogw> regfire: try asking in mythtv's irc channel
[03:22] <matax> macogw: esta bien yo te entiendo bien tranquilo gracias por responder seguire buscando
[03:22] <macogw> regfire: they'd know better than we would
[03:22] <regfire> thanks
[03:22] <Ignominy> what is the channel for beryl.
[03:22] <Sajes> Is Edubuntu better for starting out on Linux? ;o
[03:22] <LinuxProbie> what does a little padlock in the upper left corner of an icon mean?
[03:23] <macogw> Sajes: its the same as ubuntu but with educational software (like periodic table, spanish conjugation, math, etc)
[03:23] <Dr_Willis> LinuxProbie write protected would be my guess
[03:23] <sgtmattbaker> bulmer: what did you mean by counting the IPs DHCP gave out? like how many addresses are visible on the router page?
[03:23] <robbomx> Hello fellow ubuntu users, I have been having a big problem with my firewall latelt
[03:23] <robbomx> lately*
[03:23] <Sajes> Oh. Then I guess I'll use that one on my laptop.
[03:23] <robbomx> I am using Feisty Fawn
[03:23] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: yes
[03:23] <robbomx> but i really wanna turn the firewall off
[03:24] <LinuxProbie> and the commandline strong to make something executable?
[03:24] <macogw> matax: en #ubuntu-es, pide una pregunta y espera
[03:24] <robbomx> cause i want to play a game which need the firewall off
[03:24] <Darryl> Anyone>?
[03:24] <Grungebunny> robbomx firestarter?
[03:24] <bulmer> easy to turn off the firewall, iptables -F, iptables -t nat -F
[03:24] <robbomx> grungebunny, im not sure whether that is compatible with FiestyFawn
[03:24] <sgtmattbaker> bulmer: there are the same amount of devces that are connected to the internet, but it shows my Windows computer anme and the 192.168.1.93 that Windows had.  It doesnt show bill-desktop and 192.169.1.90
[03:24] <sgtmattbaker> like it should
[03:25] <robbomx> can u guys give me code on what to type in terminal
[03:25] <matax> buenas noches!!!
[03:25] <craigbass1976> gnumeric somehow became the default for opening up xls files.  How did it happen, and how do I switch it back to oocalc?
[03:25] <matax> good night
[03:25] <macogw> matax: adios
[03:26] <macogw> craigbass1976: i think if you right click an xls and go to properties you can set the default app
[03:26] <Ignominy> what is the channel for ubuntu effects?
[03:26] <Darryl> Can someone help me with my nVidia 8800GTX, it seems to have completely screwed up my Ubuntu install..GDM no longer works, just boots to a terminal
[03:26] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: you have to learn how to account for them...count it correctly, match the ip to each mac addresses
[03:26] <macogw> robbomx: firestarter is definitely compatible with firestarter
[03:26] <macogw> Ignominy: #ubuntu-effects :P
[03:26] <Ignominy> ah, too easy.  thanks.  :)
[03:26] <robbomx> macogw sorry what? lol
[03:27] <sgtmattbaker> the 192.168.1.93 is the same mac address as this pc.
[03:27] <sgtmattbaker> but for ubuntu I know it is 192.168.1.90 but it doesnt show up on the router page
[03:27] <Dr_Willis> Darryl you mean it boots to the 'console'  (black screen with LOGIN: at the bottom) ?
[03:27] <macogw> robbomx: you said youre not sure if that's compatible with feisty. i said there's firestarter for feisty, yes it's compatible
[03:27] <robbomx> macogw i went to the site to download firestarter, i cant find the download for Fiesty Fawn
[03:27] <macogw> sgtmattbaker: that's not a MAC address, it's a subnet IP address
[03:27] <sgtmattbaker> the IP for this PC changed because of Ubuntu's request and the router does not say it happened
[03:27] <Darryl> Dr_Willis: yES
[03:27] <sgtmattbaker> no, the mac is right
[03:28] <sgtmattbaker> the subnet changed when I booted into ubuntu
[03:28] <bulmer> sgtmattbaker: you need to prefix your responses to me with my nick, or i'll miss it
[03:28] <macogw> sgtmattbaker: 192.16.1.x is not a MAC address
[03:28] <Dr_Willis> Darryl ive heard the 8800 has issues with the nvidia drivers in the repos.. Not sure what the proper fix is. May want to check the ubuntu forums. I just got a new box with an 8800 also.. Not tried Linux on it.. YET. :)
[03:28] <sgtmattbaker> yeah I know...
[03:28] <Dr_Willis> Darryl thats to be later this week.
[03:28] <macogw> sgtmattbaker: MAC addresses are a series of hex (i think?) doubles separated by :
[03:28] <sgtmattbaker> macogw: it changed but I know that the .93 is now .90
[03:29] <sgtmattbaker> it is the same computer therefore the same mac address
[03:29] <kitche> Darryl, you have to install nvidia manually to use it to it's fullest
[03:29] <robbomx> Well guys, can you help meh? with the whole firewall thing.. i mean, ive been looking at the download part of the firestarter site
[03:29] <sgtmattbaker> ex: aa.bb.dd.ee.ff and so on
[03:29] <robbomx> and it doesnt have a link for Fiesty Fawn
[03:29] <robbomx> http://www.fs-security.com/download.php
[03:29] <nickrud> robbomx: look in synaptic ; if you see an app you want to use, before you go anywhere to download it, see if you can get it with synaptic furst
[03:29] <Darryl> Dr_Willis: Good luck. I downloaded the repository that Ubuntu brought up and it installed fine, on reboot GDM fatal errored and wouldn't load. So now I'm stuck with console and no idea how to get my GDM to work again
[03:30] <robbomx> where do i get synaptic
[03:30] <Dr_Willis> Darryl edit the xorg.conf file. change  'Driver 'nvidia'' back to 'Driver 'nv'" restart X. :)
[03:30] <nickrud> robbomx: top menu bar, system -> adminstration -> synaptic
[03:30] <Dr_Willis> Darryl or any of a dozen other ways to reconfgure X abck to the 'nv' driver. not the 'nvidia' one.
[03:30] <Darryl> where is xorg.conf located I'm a newb to nix but not consoles/terminals..
[03:30] <nickrud> Darryl: /etc/X11
[03:31] <robbomx> Okay, well im doing a search now.
[03:31] <macogw> Darryl: easiest way to do it is to use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg"
[03:31] <Darryl> I read somewhere about changing it to "vesa" what does that do
[03:31] <robbomx> im installing..
[03:31] <macogw> Darryl: vesa is a works-with-everything 2D driver.  nv is an nvidia-specific 2D driver
[03:31] <Onyxyte>  k
[03:31] <Darryl> ah on
[03:32] <nickrud> robbomx: when synaptic is open, hit clt-f to open a search dialog
[03:32] <Darryl> Any links to the proper way to install the nVidia drivers?
[03:32] <Grungebunny> whats is RMVB format ?
[03:32] <julian2495322> anyone know how to change wine resolutions?
[03:32] <macogw> Darryl: i think vesa would give you like low res and maybe low depth...
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> robbomx: YOu dont need to install firestarter unless you are wanting to open a port for a specic reason.  By default, you are protected.  Go to grc.com and do the shields up test to verify this for yourself
[03:32] <macogw> Darryl: well, you can try nvidia.com's driver, which isn't supported in ubuntu officially, but does tend to work
[03:32] <Darryl> So it seems this is a hit or miss kind of deal with nvidia's
[03:32] <macogw> Darryl: "not supported officially" means you have to recompile the driver each time there's a kernel update
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: vesa max res is 1024x768 x 24
[03:33] <Darryl> Yeah I'm looking to get 1650x1050 + the 3d acceleration
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> !nvidia
[03:33] <Ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:33] <GregVernon> hey guys, I'm having a hard time getting x server to work
[03:33] <macogw> Darryl: not really....nvidia is guaranteed to work in linux overall, just whether or not your card is so new we don't support it yet is a different thing.  with ati, it's hit-or-miss...less than a year old it'll be a b****
[03:33] <robbomx> Okay guys, well ive just Stopped the firewall.. now im going to test the game.. if it doesnt work ill tell you
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: The 8800 is a new card, better drivers will follow...
[03:34] <GregVernon> the problem seems to be with xterm, if I post a log, would anyone know what the problem is?
[03:35] <Darryl> Jack_Sparrow: yeah I understand that I don't plan on getting 100% from the card but atleast enough to have an enjoyable experience
[03:35] <nickrud> GregVernon: logs are nice, yes ;)
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: HAve you tried enabling the restricted drives.. the one click solution.. or is it available to you
[03:35] <bra1> um...ANYONE get guild wars working on intel 945gm/gu...wine....and ubuntu?
[03:36] <robbomx> Okay guys it still says i have a firewall still blocking the network for the game
[03:36] <Darryl> Right now I'm stuck on a low resolution, and visualy Ubuntu right now is very unpleasing to the eye
[03:36] <nickrud> robbomx: you behind a router?
[03:36] <robbomx> im using gamespy... well its an internal gamespy
[03:36] <robbomx> yeah i am
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: That does not answer my question
[03:36] <robbomx> nickrud yes
[03:36] <nickrud> robbomx: open the port on the router
[03:36] <robbomx> nickrud how
[03:36] <Darryl> Jack_Sparrow: Yes that is what got me into that mess, I went the restricted drivers route and downloaded it through there
[03:36] <Darryl> Jack_Sparrow: It installed fine, but on reboot fatal error with GDM and went to console
[03:36] <nickrud> robbomx: and forward it to you. That's gonna depend on your router.
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: system... admin... restriceted drivers
[03:36] <GregVernon> nickrud, here: http://slexy.org/paste/4805
[03:36] <bra1> i can run it on low....but its still a very low 3fps...any tips?
[03:37] <robbomx> Nickrud, how though>
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: ok.. so did you sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: Can you post your xorg to the pastebin?
[03:37] <robbomx> Nickrud: how though???
[03:37] <nickrud> robbomx: I don't know, you have to point your browser to the address of the router, and configure it. Should be in your router manual
[03:38] <Darryl> Jack_Sparrow: Yes I done that and it started to download nvidia glx
[03:38] <nickrud> GregVernon: that is a really, really odd error. What did you do??
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   will not cause it to start a download
[03:39] <Darryl> If I'm able to connect via dialup from console, then access the paste bin some how yes
[03:39] <rami> hello, my fav website has switched servers, and hence IP, however my ISP's DNS server is still not updated...how could I update it locally to open the website? Thanks in advance
[03:39] <GregVernon> nickrud, I have no idea
[03:39] <nickrud> GregVernon: do sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg , and select gnome from the sessions options. See if that works.
[03:39] <GregVernon> ok
[03:39] <pjman> Hi - I downloaded Google Earth from http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html and ran "sh GoogleEarthLinux.bin". I'm getting an md5 error during the "Verifying archive integrity". Anyone else have this problem?
[03:39] <nickrud> GregVernon: or kde
[03:39] <Explosif> hey all, im having some issues getting my opod shuffle to work.  somehow the permissions got changed to the point that all the files are read only and cannot be changed by the average user.  Ive tried using the chmod command "chmod og=rw /media/IPOD" but that didnt work.  Does anyone have any advice?
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> pjman: means a bad download
[03:39] <Darryl> Jack_Sparrow: No but the Restricted Drivers did, which is what got me into this mess, it downloaded and installed a nVidia GLX
[03:40] <osmosis> whats the speed different between running and i386 distro, vs running an amd64 copy of a distro ?
[03:40] <pjman> Jack_Sparrow - I've tried clearing my cache and redownloading. It's finishing fine...
[03:40] <dcroxton> !mic
[03:40] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mic - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:40] <bigmb> shamefully, I have the noooooobiest question ever. How do I install the C libraries?
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: Yea, I got that, but then the sudo dpkg....
[03:40] <Explosif> is there a way to reformat it and completely start from scratch?
[03:40] <Darryl> Ok I will boot into Ubuntu and input that into Console
[03:40] <xfreakk> bigmd : you have to compile them
[03:40] <dcroxton> Can anyone help with a microphone problem?
[03:41] <bigmb> hrm. I should have to sudo ___________ and have it taken' care of
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: before you go..
[03:41] <Darryl> I'm on Vista at the moment since I'm stuck with nothingbut console on Ubuntu
[03:41] <axxium> the C libs have to be in your system for many of the apps to even run.
[03:41] <xfreakk> bigmd : stay away from source programs try to find what you need on the synaptic package manager
[03:41] <GregVernon> nickrud, I don't get the option to select a window manager using that command
[03:41] <limp> hi
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: accept all the defaults and select medium when it comes to the monitor options
[03:41] <bigmb> I'm getting crazy errors.....stdio.h is not htere nor is stdlib.h :(
[03:41] <Darryl> Jack_Sparrow: YES?
[03:41] <limp> how do I add libcurl to my php installation without reinstalling php?
[03:42] <rami> anybody got a suggestion for my problem?
[03:42] <arkanes> bigmb: you need libc6-dev
[03:42] <xfreakk> bigmd : you need to download libraries
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl:  Does livecd work and can you post your xorg to the pastebin
[03:42] <Darryl> Ok
[03:42] <xfreakk> bigmd : do what arkanes said
[03:42] <nickrud> GregVernon: ok.  type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm  , that should take you to a graphical login screen, with the session option. If it doesn't, hit alt-f7, see if it's there. alt-f1 should bring you back where you are
[03:42] <macogw> pjman: you can get google earth from the medibuntu repos
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: If nothing else, select vesa a max res of 1024 and simple
[03:42] <macogw> pjman: do you have those repos enabled?
[03:42] <southafrikanse> hello. I was watching films on youtube and suddenly I lost sound!
[03:42] <Darryl> Jack_Sparrow: I have the Ubuntu CD in my drive but it still brings up console
[03:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: that will get you back in.. after you run dpkg   type startx
[03:43] <bigmb> got it, thanks
[03:43] <limp> how do I add libcurl to my php installation without reinstalling php?
[03:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Darryl: Try to get nvidia to reconfigure startx  if fails... select veas to get in and post xorg
[03:43] <macogw> rami: i think if you know the ip address you can put it in /etc/hosts like "favesite.com 182.45.23.167" or something
[03:43] <Lord_Spidey> hey there
[03:44] <robbomx> I dont know how to forward my port to myself...
[03:44] <nickrud> limp, sudo apititude install php5-curl     aptitude search php5- will show you some more modules
[03:44] <GregVernon> nickrud, I think the problem is more fundamental then that...
[03:44] <GregVernon> hold on
[03:44] <Lord_Spidey> how do i get my wmp11 linksys card working i cant find drivers for it
[03:44] <nickrud> limp: *aptitude
[03:44] <Darryl> Jack_Sparrow: Ok, Thank you I will do that now
[03:44] <nickrud> GregVernon: probably, doing the simple things first
[03:44] <limp> it won't reset my php5 config ?
[03:44] <pjman> macogw: I'll try that, thx. I was hoping to get the latest version straight from the maker :-)
[03:45] <nickrud> limp: no, it will add to it . See /etc/php5/conf.d/ for how it works
[03:45] <limp> ok thanks :)
[03:45] <macogw> Lord_Spidey: first find out what chipset it has http://linux-wless.passys.nl and see if it's rated green
[03:46] <codeane_> using ubuntu i would like to browse to a windows box which is in another subnet and therefore doesn't show up in nautilus, i can ping the machine by name, using go locations in nautilus doesn't work
[03:46] <Lord_Spidey> wohoo its green
[03:46] <macogw> Lord_Spidey: and what chipset does it say?
[03:46] <rami> macogw: that didn't work. The admin has this message up: For Windows, your hosts file is normally located at: c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts or c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
[03:47] <Lord_Spidey> sec lemme check
[03:47] <macogw> rami: windows?
[03:47] <macogw> rami: admin of what?
[03:47] <expertninja> how can I mount my normal home directory as read/write so I can chroot to it and try to fix crap?
[03:47] <limp> do I need a reboot for effect ?
[03:47] <expertninja> I'm using a livech
[03:47] <LinuxProbie> is the ubuntu repository down?
[03:47] <dcroxton> codeane_: can you type in the location bar //<machinename>/<sharename>?
[03:47] <rami> I am on Ubuntu, but I meant that the admin of the website has this tweak for windows to update the IP on a windows machine
[03:47] <macogw> rami: ok the hosts file on linux is /etc/hosts
[03:48] <rami> well I added those two lines in /etc/hosts didn't work
[03:48] <macogw> rami: oh put the IP address first
[03:48] <nickrud> limp: no it should have installed itself and be ready to rumble
[03:48] <macogw> rami: 2 lines?
[03:48] <rami> yes they are two lines
[03:48] <macogw> rami: see how it says 127.0.0.1 <tab> localhost?  just do it like that
[03:48] <limp> curl_init() is still not recognized function
[03:48] <macogw> rami: i only told you one line
[03:48] <CokeMan> i have a raid using mdadm. i switched all my sata cables around while putting another hard drive in the case. however all information i've managed to get on the raid, it appears to have the right drives and the /dev/md0 device is active, however every attempt i've attempted to mount it, it tells me to specify the filesystem, i've specified the file system and it tells me it is incorrect.
[03:49] <CokeMan> can anyone help me get it working again please?
[03:49] <nickrud> limp: you might need to restart apache, if that's where you're seeing that
[03:49] <codeane_> no, says couldn't find "/machine/folder" even though i typed "//machine/folder"
[03:49] <rami> macogw: I meant i added two lines one with www. and one without
[03:49] <robbomx> HOW DO I Port forward?!
[03:49] <limp> argh forgot the dir, do you know it ?
[03:50] <macogw> rami: oh.  did you do it IP address first or second?
[03:50] <bruenig> robbomx, consult your routers documentation
[03:50] <limp> oh
[03:50] <limp> got it
[03:50] <rami> yes IP (space) URL
[03:50] <Lord_Spidey> i got this
[03:50] <Lord_Spidey> it looks like its red
[03:50] <Lord_Spidey> http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_chipset.php?chipset=InProComm
[03:50] <fatcatmatt> wow...i have an all-night project...my boss' laptop and installing ubuntu on it.  quite the task, i tell ya what.  it's a custom gateway so i might be needing some help later :S
[03:51] <bigmb> so...my code has undefined references to trig functions....is there possibly a header I'm missing?
[03:51] <dcroxton> codeane_: I'm afraid I have about exhausted my Samba knowledge. :)  Except if you try browsing smb:///.
[03:51] <Flatfender> Is there a way to format a flash drive on ubuntu?
[03:51] <limp> works! thanks nickrud :)
[03:51] <bruenig> bigmb, well see if whatever you are including is in /usr/include
[03:51] <bigmb> kk, ty
[03:51] <Ciorapel> Helo. I have a partition that I mounted /ext2/ if I remember well on the ubuntu setul. Now, every boot I have to remount the partition , and when I double click it promts for admin password. I can't write on the partition aswell. I tried formating the partition to NTFS with gparted but still no effect.
[03:52] <Ciorapel> *ubuntu setup
[03:52] <nickrud> bigmb: a rule of thumb:  take the lib that the code says is missing, put    lib   on the front, and apt-cache search <construct> | grep dev   finds it 90% of the time
[03:52] <fatcatmatt> ciorapel:  try formatting it ext3 and change the /etc/fstab
[03:52] <CountX> i cant shut down ubuntu without holding the power button, under system>quit there is no shutdown or restart
[03:52] <bruenig> nickrud, I think he is talking about something he wrote
[03:52] <fatcatmatt> countx: is there an icon by the clock?
[03:52] <Ciorapel> fatcatmatt. Can you be more specific. I'm a noobie :)
[03:52] <CountX> yes
[03:52] <GinoPertile> Hello folks. I'm having some issues running XAMPP. I can't make work "FollowSymlinks" in Apache. I have xampp installed on /opt/lampp with DocumentRoot in /opt/lampp/htdocs ... there I created a symlink to /home/myuser/public_html ... but I get FORBIDDEN when I try to access localhost/myuser
[03:52] <codeane_> dcroxton, thx, what worked was smb://machine/folder
[03:52] <CountX> fatcatmatt, yes
[03:52] <bruenig> nickrud, not a configure script error
[03:53] <tarelerulz> any of you every have windows not see your samba share or then typing in the ip ?
[03:53] <fatcatmatt> countx: try that then
[03:53] <CountX> fatcatmatt, same thing, no shutdown or restart
[03:53] <nickrud> bruenig: probably true there also, if he's linking a lib with no headers
[03:53] <fatcatmatt> ciorapel: go into gparted "sudo gparted" and format the drive as ext3
[03:53] <mymy_> hello
[03:53] <dcroxton> codeane_, awesome, it's nice to answer a question for a change.
[03:53] <fatcatmatt> ciorapel: if you dont have it, then install it using the add/remove
[03:54] <Lord_Spidey> wait i got it
[03:54] <logreeval> How do you find out how much memory Ubuntu is recognizing?
[03:54] <Lord_Spidey> :)
[03:54] <nickrud> logreeval: free
[03:54] <fatcatmatt> ciorapel: it will come up after install under the system > administration menu
[03:54] <mymy_> Does anybody knows if we can change the cpu scheduler at runtime ?
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Flatfender: yes.. you can use cli or gparted.. available with synaptic
[03:54] <logreeval> nickrud: what?
[03:54] <fatcatmatt> logreeval:  install sysinfo from the add/remove
[03:54] <tarelerulz> Windows can't find my samba other then when I put the ip in ? Is windows just sucking or have I config samba wrong ?
[03:54] <nickrud> logreeval: that will tell you about your memory
[03:54] <codeane_> dcroxton, thanks that was very helpful
[03:55] <CountX> fatcatmatt, anything?
[03:55] <logreeval> fatcatmatt and nickrud thanks
[03:55] <fatcatmatt> countx: what do you mean, anything?  there should be a shutdown option icon to the right of your clock unless you have removed it
[03:55] <Ciorapel> fatcatmatt i still can't write on the partition :)
[03:56] <CountX> fatcatmatt, no its there, but the menu it brings up doesnt have a shutdown or restart
[03:56] <fatcatmatt> ciorapel: it's a trick.  open a terminal and type "sudo mkdir /media/disk"
[03:56] <nickrud> Ciorapel: did you write a filesystem to it?    sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/<device>
[03:56] <fatcatmatt> countx: hmm...that gets me...
[03:57] <Ciorapel> root@ciorapel-linux:~# sudo mkdir /media/disk
[03:57] <Ciorapel> mkdir: cannot create directory `/media/disk': File exists

[03:58] <ThatGuy> test
[03:58] <BernieMac> could I run visual studio in wine? or would I be better off to just forget it and boot in XP?
[03:58] <mymy_> any idea about kernel scheduler ?
[03:58] <nickrud> fail
[03:58] <Ciorapel> fatcatmatt: no ... Is labeled DISK
[03:58] <fatcatmatt> NEVERMIND about the label, what's the drive called?!
[03:58] <bruenig> BernieMac, just write it in a text editor and compile it, what's the problem
[03:59] <Ciorapel> Volume : disk
[03:59] <fatcatmatt> what's the system recognize it as?  SDA
[03:59] <fatcatmatt> i wanna yell at you
[03:59] <fatcatmatt> listen ciorapel, is it SDA and then a NUMBER
[03:59] <BernieMac> No problem, just wondering if it would be easier to boot on the other OS, thanks for the help
[03:59] <Ciorapel> fatcatmatt:

[04:03] <riotkittie> feh. maybe i should just suck it up and go the ndiswrapper route.
[04:03] <fatcatmatt> ciorapel: it shouldn't
[04:03] <frogzoo> Ciorapel: check your /etc/fstab
[04:03] <fatcatmatt> somebody else plz help him

[04:04] <Jack_Sparrow> darryl: not if it is working.. or do you want me to look at it anyhow
[04:04] <riotkittie> if you properly formatted... i cant see how it would revert to ext2
[04:05] <darryl> Jack_sparrow: Well it doesn't seem the drivers are working. I'm still stuck with 1024x760 resolution.

[04:16] <Pelo> david_,  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:16] <david_> thx a ton
[04:17] <Grungebunny> Pelo lets say im not able to change an icon by rt clicking and going to properties.. how would I then go about changing it?
[04:17] <Pelo> Grungebunny,  not a clue
[04:17] <Grungebunny> lol
[04:18] <Demolitio> thanks coaster :D
[04:18] <CoasterMaster> Demolitio, no problem
[04:18] <Grungebunny> Anyone know how to change an icon if you cannot do it by rt clicking and going to properties? (such as volume and main menu)
[04:18] <Demolitio> err pelo.. btw.. there's noone in #thunderbird :P
[04:18] <davidosa> hello folks
[04:18] <Pelo> Demolitio,  there is also #mozilla
[04:19] <JeevesMoss> is there a test script for PHP5 that shows why it's not connecting to MySQL?
[04:20] <davidosa> how does one boot from a live cd?
[04:21] <JeevesMoss> davidosa:  burn the CD, drop it ino the drive, then tell the PC's BIOS to boot from the CD-ROM
[04:21] <Pelo> davidosa, it depends on your computer,  most have a key you can press on startup to select the boot device,  f8 on mine, or you can change the boot order in the bios
[04:21] <Grungebunny> Anyone know how to change an icon if you cannot do it by rt clicking and going to properties? (such as volume and main menu)
[04:21] <Helzibah> davidosa: shut your computer down, insert CD, start computer and pay attention to boot-up screens, there should be a button to press to get to "setup" or "bios" settings
[04:21] <Pelo> Grungebunny, do you know how to change the icon from the right click ?
[04:21] <nickrud> Grungebunny: change the .desktop definition in /usr/share/appliations
[04:21] <nickrud> *applications
[04:22] <Demolitio> ok.. there's people in there, thanks pelo :D
[04:22] <Grungebunny> Pelo yeah but some icons don't have that option
[04:22] <Helzibah> davidosa: then it sholud be obvious hov to change your comp to boot from CD
[04:23] <Ignominy> is the following text good?    Using X configuration file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf".

[04:23] <Dynamicc> hey can anyone help me
[04:23] <CoasterMaster> !ask | Dynamicc
[04:23] <Ubotu> Dynamicc: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:23] <davidosa> it's not me who has the issue, a friend of mine with a Windows PC. I use Ubuntu in a virtual environment on my Mac.
[04:23] <davidosa> I'll see if he burned the cd properly..
[04:23] <Pelo> Xenown,  what is the issue ?
[04:24] <Dynamicc> !ask How do i install conky 1.7.4on ubuntu
[04:24] <chris32680> anyone know where apache2 puts the htdocs dir with a default install?
[04:24] <nickrud> chris32680: /var/www
[04:24] <chris32680> nickrud: thanks
[04:24] <Xenown> I recently installed Windows, used this method I found on a guide online to try to reinstall GRUB as Windows wiped it out, but ever since then I've been getting Error 15: File Not Found
[04:24] <Pelo> Dynamicc,  sudo apt-get install conky
[04:24] <Dynamicc> !ask But it says i have the latest installed when i dont
[04:24] <Pelo> Xenown,  hold on
[04:24] <Xenown> I used Super Grub Disk to load myself onto ubuntu, but how do I fix the GRUB Loader, so that both windows and ubuntu run at the same time
[04:24] <Xenown> ok Pelo =o
[04:25] <riotkittie> you have the latest ver available in the repos, apparently. you can compile from source, i suppose...
[04:25] <nickrud> Dynamicc: that's the latest that's precompiled by ubuntu ; you could compile and install it yourself
[04:25] <Pelo> Xenown,  you get the message when you try to boot which os ?
[04:25] <Dynamicc> !ask never mind
[04:25] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask never mind - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:26] <Pelo> Dynamicc, I don''T allow private msg please talk to me in the channel
[04:26] <Xenown> When I reboot, it says it loads GRUB, but it doesn't and just displays that error
[04:26] <Pelo> Xenown, ah,  did you get the supergrub cd ?
[04:26] <riotkittie> oh woe is me.
[04:26] <Xenown> Yeah, burnt it this morning
[04:26] <Xenown> I don't know if this is odd, but I used the "Boot windows from another partition" option and it booted me into Ubuntu
[04:27] <Xenown> I think my menu.lst is heavily messed up or something
[04:27] <nickrud> ;)
[04:27] <RoSmecher> anyone here polish?
[04:27] <Ignominy> is the following text good -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37166/
[04:28] <Pelo> Xenown,  ok this is what I think it happening,  your new grub repair does not point to the /boot/ folder in the correct partition for ubuntu ,   not sure which options you need to use in the grub cd but that's basicaly it,   you'll need to navigate the menues to figure it out
[04:28] <Pelo> !pl | RoSmecher
[04:28] <Ubotu> RoSmecher: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[04:28] <Xenown> oh
[04:28] <Pelo> Xenown,  do you get my meaning ?
[04:28] <nickrud> Ignominy: well, it's not necessarily bad
[04:29] <Ignominy> does it indicate that my video driver has been updated in some way?
[04:29] <nickrud> Ignominy: what did it, that's the pertinent question
[04:29] <taris> sup pelo
[04:29] <Ignominy> "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37166/"
[04:29] <Xenown> I do get it, but I can't figure out which option'll do it, I tried using most of the options, ended up with the no changes
[04:29] <Ignominy> oops sorry
[04:29] <nickrud> Ignominy: no, only an option added to your current config
[04:29] <Pelo> hello taris  , the usual,  just talking noobs off the ledge
[04:29] <Ignominy> "sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals" is what created that text
[04:30] <taris> pelo lol sure? thought it was the other way around :D
[04:30] <xazo> I just downloaded ISO for Ubunut Ultimate from VMWare Appliances. How do I open this in VMplayer?
[04:30] <xazo> I see no *.vmx file
[04:30] <nickrud> Ignominy: then it did exactly what you asked it to, that's an option you just set for your nvidia driver
[04:30] <faileas> xazo: you'll need to gave a VMX file at the very least
[04:31] <nickrud> Xenown: if you'd put the output of mount , sudo fdisk -l and your current menu.lst on a pastebin
[04:31] <Morydd> I'm trying to get my wireless connection working on a laptop, but when I run "sudo ifup eth1" I get SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
[04:31] <Pelo> Xenown, if I recall correctly,  when you restore the grub mbr ( phase one) you get ask which partition /boot is on ,  that's all I recall, you just need to follow the correct  menu path,  ie,  restore  linux ( as opose to windows) ,  then what ever you get asked
[04:31] <Ignominy> :) that's good to hear.  something going right.
[04:31] <xazo> what is gave a vmx file...?
[04:31] <Pelo> !wifi | Morydd  have you read this ?
[04:31] <Ubotu> Morydd  have you read this ?: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:32] <Xenown> nickrud, one sec
[04:32] <nickrud> xazo: it's probably a package you have to unpack some how
[04:32] <Pelo> xazo,  a vmx filke is a virtual machine for vmware
[04:33] <faileas> vmx is the config file for vmware
[04:33] <xazo> Ok. the file I downloaded from VMWare.com for Ultimate Ubuntu 1.4 is ISO. I mounted the iso to /mnt/ubuntu. there i do not see any vmx
[04:33] <xazo> hhmm
[04:33] <faileas> you need it to tell vmware what the disk images are, how much ram to use ect
[04:33] <xazo> ok, how can I make a vmx file from iso??
[04:33] <faileas> the appliance sucks then ;p
[04:33] <faileas> you can't
[04:33] <nickrud> lol
[04:33] <Ignominy> ok, next problem: I have the ntfs-3g package installed and I am unable copy or paste from my ntfs hard drives.
[04:33] <faileas> 2 options
[04:33] <sixblades> Hey, I'm having trouble getting an installation going with the graphical CD for Fiesty Fawn 7.04. I select "Install Ubuntu" and the bouncy progress bar comes on for awhile, then the loading bar gets to "half a square" and stops for a few minutes, then goes to a black screen with a blinking "_".
[04:33] <Pelo> xazo,  an iso is  disk image they are meant to be burned to a cd or a dvd
[04:33] <nickrud> Ignominy: install the ntfs-config package
[04:33] <Xenown> nickrud, should I PM you the links?
[04:34] <faileas> 1) have a vmx file made at easyvmx.com
[04:34] <faileas> 2) upgrade to vmware server
[04:34] <nickrud> Xenown: nah, put them here, someone else might offer a look
[04:34] <Pelo> xazo,  I think you need to ask this stuff in #vmware
[04:34] <Ignominy> nickrud, did that as well.
[04:34] <xazo> i did...lol
[04:34] <Xenown> http://pastebin.com/m44d41379 <-- fdisk
[04:34] <xazo> ask in vmware
[04:35] <Xenown> http://pastebin.com/mdca5e84 <--- menu.lst
[04:35] <nickrud> Ignominy: thats about all I know about ntfs-3g, I don't write to ext3 with windows or ntfs with linux
[04:35] <spiderworm2> hey all, what would the symptoms be on an ubuntu system if the computer doesnt have enough power?
[04:35] <TheGline> Hi, anyone about? I have a question, something that's stumped a few folks
[04:35] <xazo> thanks for the ideas..
[04:35] <josiah> alright I just purchased myself a Wireless-G WG311v3 and got a fresh copy of ubuntu installed. Could anybody help walk me though setting this nic up?
[04:35] <TheGline> The search function in my install of Ubuntu's Help utility is messed up, and I have no idea what happened.
[04:35] <Pelo> xazo,  you have vmware server ?  go have a iso for ubuntu ?  burn the iso to a cd or dvd ,  then start up vmware, create a new virtual machine, and then boot the live cd from vmare and install ubuntu on it , which is damn silly in my opinon
[04:36] <nickrud> Ignominy: I only read: I'm gonna be booting into that os to use anything I would have written, so I just read it from there
[04:36] <sixblades> josiah: search for ndiswrapper on the forums, if that doesn't work, maybe look into fwcutter as a last resort (due to the limited 11 Mbps)
[04:36] <Pelo> !wifi | josiah
[04:36] <josiah> bot down?
[04:36] <Xenown> anyone find the mistake? =x
[04:36] <nickrud> Xenown: hdb3 is your xp?
[04:36] <Ubotu> josiah: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:36] <Xenown> yeah
[04:36] <TheGline> When I use search on Ubuntu Help  in a live-CD version of the program, I get results that make sense. When I run the exact same searches on the desktop Ubuntu install, I get stuf that seems to be from a completely different repository of documents. I can't figure out for the life of me how this happened or how to fix it.
[04:36] <Pelo> josiah, lagging apparently
[04:37] <databoy2k> hey all I'm having an install issue with the latest Ubuntu. When running the liveCD, I have to change the screen resolution off VGA in order to boot, or I get a black screen with my caps lock light flashing. My question is how do I set that same option for booting Ubuntu, because after installing it to my hard disk when it attempts to boot I get the same black screen.
[04:37] <nickrud> Xenown: well, hda1 is hd0,0 not hd1,0
[04:37] <Ignominy> nickrud, my WinXP install has gone bad (corrupt driver, I think) and repeated attempts to fix the install aren't going so well.  What I'm trying to do with the ntfs-3g is transfer files from one ntfs drive to another ntfs so I don't loose data.  any suggestions?
[04:37] <nickrud> Xenown: unless your linux is on hdb1
[04:38] <Xenown> yeah it's on hdb1
[04:38] <Pelo> databoy2k, which videocard do you use ?
[04:38] <databoy2k> ATI Radeon x800
[04:38] <Pelo> databoy2k, you can't use the live cd you need the alternate install cd
[04:38] <TheGline> I did try reinstalling the help / docs packages, but that didn't seem to make any difference.
[04:38] <Xenown> root directly is on /dev/hdb1
[04:38] <nickrud> Ignominy: put it on an ext3, when you finally fix your windows, read it with an ext3 driver
[04:38] <Pelo> gotta go ppl , g'night
[04:38] <databoy2k> thanks pelo!
[04:38] <Xenown> *directory
[04:38] <Xenown> >_>
[04:39] <josiah> Ok I think I found a good one. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Netgear_WG311_v3
[04:39] <nickrud> Ignominy: that's just a personal pref, I'm real conservative with my data. I didn't switch to ext3 from ext2 for a couple of years
[04:39] <john> hey
[04:39] <josiah> lets hope it works better than the last two linksys cards
[04:39] <coldsteal> hello
[04:39] <xfreakk> hey guys
[04:39] <riotkittie> josiah: good luck
[04:39] <TheGline> Any ideas about what might be going on?
[04:39] <nickrud> Xenown: did you run sudo grub-install ?
[04:39] <nickrud> Xenown: cuz nothing leaps out at me
[04:40] <john> quick question....i am having a problem configuring my sound with a wintv card....the video works but the line out will not work with my sound card....anyway to bypass this?
[04:40] <Xenown> should I try that again?
[04:40] <xfreakk> When i used synaptic package manger or apt-get to install anything it gives me an earlier error from Drupal5.1 anyone know how to fix this
[04:40] <bruenig> xfreakk, what error
[04:40] <xfreakk> bruenig : g: error processing drupal-5.1 (--configure):
[04:40] <xfreakk>  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[04:40] <xfreakk> Setting up g++-4.1 (4.1.2-0ubuntu4) ...
[04:40] <xfreakk> Setting up libstdc++6-4.1-dev (4.1.2-0ubuntu4) ...
[04:40] <xfreakk> Setting up g++ (4.1.2-1ubuntu1) ...
[04:41] <bruenig> xfreakk, remove drupal
[04:41] <xfreakk> bruenig, how can i do that
[04:41] <xfreakk> o nevermind
[04:41] <xfreakk> lol
[04:41] <nickrud> Xenown: yes, that's what I'd do. But, just for grins, do sudo aptitude reinstall grub first
[04:41] <sixblades> Is anyone here knowledgable about failed fiesty installs (or can redirect me to a room that would)?
[04:42] <akio> i just booted from a pxe, i couldnt connect to an archive mirror of ubuntu
[04:42] <john> is there anyway to have my wintv card play directly through my sound blaster card without using a cable from lineout to line in?
[04:42] <akio> i selected to execute a shell
[04:42] <akio> now im stuck
[04:42] <databoy2k> sixblades i'm a complete newbie but if it's the same issue I had I might have some advice :P
[04:42] <riotkittie> sixblades: elaborate, please. where/how did it fail?
[04:42] <coldsteal> im looking for Gutsy Gibbon
[04:42] <sixblades> Ok, it's the graphical install of 7.04
[04:42] <bruenig> !gibbon | coldsteal
[04:42] <Ubotu> coldsteal: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[04:42] <sixblades> I select the install and get the bouncy load bar
[04:42] <sixblades> that's fine
[04:43] <Xenown> nickrud; okay mate, did that, now what?
[04:43] <akio> can someone help me with this install?
[04:43] <nickrud> Xenown: sudo grub-install /dev/hda (hda is your primary boot drive, right?)
[04:43] <sixblades> then it stops and starts the "real" loading bar, except it stays stuck at almost no progress for a few minutes, then goes to a blinking "_" on a blank screen
[04:43] <overclucker> akio, what are you trying to install
[04:43] <coldsteal> bruenig: is there an alfa i can install
[04:43] <Xenown> Yeah first boot device
[04:44] <bruenig> coldsteal, read what ubotu said to you
[04:44] <Xenown> altho both OSes are in hdb
[04:44] <riotkittie> sixblades: and the system locks up?
[04:44] <sixblades> Yes
[04:44] <vader1102> night folks just got called back into work..... 4th night in a row........
[04:44] <sixblades> It's not a console terminal
[04:44] <sixblades> I can't navigate at all
[04:44] <databoy2k> sorry dude then i'm out
[04:44] <sixblades> I can type and such, but that's about it
[04:44] <databoy2k> but thanks for the info folks night night!
[04:44] <BernieMac> Is there a check disk for ubuntu?
[04:44] <CoasterMaster> !fsck | BernieMac
[04:44] <Ubotu> BernieMac: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[04:44] <riotkittie> sixblades: try the alternate install CD :|
[04:44] <Pici> coldsteal: Gutsy only in #ubuntu+1 please.
[04:44] <sixblades> Although the system is responding to mouse input, because it "sleeps" after awhile and returns after a mouse move
[04:45] <Xenown> Should I reboot or check, or should I edit for Windows XP on menu.lst?
[04:45] <sixblades> riot: I've tried the alternate CD, with limited success
[04:45] <coldsteal> Pici: okay
[04:45] <Morydd> hmmm... seems there's no way to get the network connection working without a network connection. Fun.
[04:45] <riotkittie> any 12 year olds want to come fix my wireless? i'll pay you like ten bucks.
[04:45] <nickrud> Xenown: I'd reboot to check
[04:45] <riotkittie> sixblades: limited? how so?
[04:45] <Xenown> nickrud; okay, I'll brb
[04:45] <sixblades> riot: if I select the text only install then it does fine until the "Selecting and installing software"
[04:45] <nickrud> Xenown: luck :)
[04:45] <BernieMac> alright thanks
[04:45] <sixblades> riot: it gets to about 6%, then locks up and with a "Please wait..." for a few minutes
[04:46] <sixblades> riot: then the entire screen turns red and it has a "This installation step has failed!"
[04:46] <akio> im installing via pxe, i need to link up with an ubuntu archive....
[04:47] <akio> how do i do this?
[04:47] <overclucker> geez, pidgin really sucks; hardly usable
[04:47] <riotkittie> bruenig: that was ... tsk tsk.
[04:47] <nickrud> o|
[04:47] <riotkittie> sixblades: sorry, i'm completely clueless :\
[04:47] <sixblades> riot: haha, yeah, that's ok
[04:47] <sixblades> riot: it's a really wierd situation, I'm looking into alternate boot methods now
[04:48] <nickrud> sixblades: have you run the disk test from the menu?
[04:48] <josiah> ok first issue... when i go to install ndiswrapper-utils it tells me "Error: Dependency is not satisfieable: libc6". When I go into the package manager it tells me its installed.
[04:48] <jrsims> hey, I lost my windows in GRUB. How do I fix?
[04:48] <overclucker> akio, you know about sysnaptic?
[04:48] <jrsims> Windows XP
[04:48] <sixblades> riot:yeah, the disk is fine. I've done the md5 checks and the disk test on the graphical AND the alternate install cds; both check out fine.
[04:48] <coldsteal> overclucker: get irssi +screen &bitlbee:D
[04:48] <overclucker> heh, i'm used to ircii
[04:49] <riotkittie> ok. did i not come in here at some point earlier waxing poetic about having managed to connect to my wireless? or was that some hallucination on my part?
[04:49] <Poul^Laptop> where would be a good place to get help setting up gpg and evolution+?
[04:49] <sixblades> Poul: the forums, perhaps
[04:49] <nickrud> jrib: add this http://pastebin.com/m2b62075a to the very bottom, below the AUTOMAGIC line , it's assuming windows is on first drive, first partition
[04:50] <nickrud> jrsims: um, the above was for you
[04:50] <nickrud> we heard something about ndiswrapper, yes
[04:50] <TheGline> Repost of earlier ... The search function in my install of Ubuntu's Help utility is messed up. When I use it in a live-CD version of the program, I get results that make sense. When I run the exact same searches on the desktop Ubuntu install, I get stuf that seems to be from a completely different repository of documents. I can't figure out for the life of me how this happened or how to fix it.
[04:51] <johwil> jrsims: try Super Grub Disk
[04:51] <jrsims> nickrud: thanks
[04:51] <nugget93> Hey can anyone tell me any cool things i can do with linux
[04:51] <holotone> How can I safely skip the auto fsck @ 27th boot? I've got a large hard drive, so it'll take forever, and I"m working on a deadline..!
[04:51] <nickrud> jrsims: and if that doesn't work, see super grub disk ;)
[04:51] <TheSpazzz> Get eveyone... I'm having a problum with Ubuntu Feisty
[04:51] <riotkittie> we hard something about ndiswrapper from whom?
[04:51] <Flannel> holotone: `sudo touch /fastboot` before you reboot
[04:52] <TheSpazzz> When I run the Live CD and then search from the help screen, I get a ton of results
[04:52] <TheGline> Spazzz, looks like I logged on here same time you did
[04:52] <TheSpazzz> when I install from the Desktop, I get none
[04:52] <TheSpazzz> Oh hey Gline
[04:52] <Flannel> holotone: (that file goes away next boot, you'll need to recreate it)
[04:52] <nickrud> something to the effect of "ok, darn it, I may have to use that piece of dung"
[04:52] <TheGline> Spazzz, I just posted about this problem a second ago :D
[04:52] <holotone> Flannel: I'm stuck in fsck, is the problem.. How do I get out?
[04:52] <johwil> jrsims: http://aquariusoft.org/~johwil/Grub/
[04:52] <TheSpazzz> *laughs* alrighty
[04:52] <akio> hello
[04:52] <holotone> I need to just skip the fsck and boot right into feist asap
[04:52] <TheGline> I don't think anyone's had an answer for me, though
[04:52] <Flannel> holotone: Ah. I don't know if you can or not.
[04:52] <akio> i need to enter in an archive mirror for ubuntu
[04:52] <JeevesMoss> can someone give me a hand to figure out this PHP/mySQL problem and why I can't connect to the databse!!
[04:52] <holotone> Flannel: Curses.... Thanks anyhow!
[04:52] <akio> so i can install via this pxe
[04:53] <riotkittie> oh yea, that. i've changed my mind. but i did manage to connect to one of my networks earlier!!  but i havent been able to do it since booting into XP and coming back  :\
[04:53] <overclucker> TheGline: help isn't very useful at this point, if you can, just go to ubuntu fornums
[04:53] <akio> overclucker: can you help with this?
[04:53] <riotkittie> which is like. grr. :\
[04:53] <TheGline> overclucker: Nothing there seemed to really help. The problem with looking for help with help is that using "help" as a search term is, well, useless ....
[04:53] <riotkittie> so now i'm wired. <twirls finger>
[04:54] <josiah> woot! ndiswrapper finally works.. score one netgear
[04:54] <nickrud> TheGline: some of the docs have been updated; you might simply be searching a later set
[04:54] <josiah> and ndiswrapper
[04:54] <josiah> and ubuntu
[04:54] <josiah> and the open source community
[04:54] <josiah> and not microsoft
[04:54] <riotkittie> i almost miss my netgear. not quite. but almost.
[04:54] <TheGline> nick: That's fine -- I just want to know how that's the case or not.
[04:54] <josiah> poor connection but the bastard works lol
[04:54] <TheGline> nick: The thing is, the live CD help search actually made sense. The current search returns stuff which is entirely inapplicable, so it's either gotten much worse or my install is just broken.
[04:55] <TheGline> I can post screenshots of this if people need top see.
[04:55] <nickrud> TheGline: look at the changelog in /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-docs
[04:55] <riotkittie> at least i could connect constantly with that. albeit only to my unsecured network. and it was a lot cheaper than my dlink :\
[04:55] <TheGline> nickrud: OK, BRB
[04:55] <cookie_> hello everybody
[04:56] <overclucker> akio, ask nickrud: i'm not currently on an ubuntu box and i forgot where repo sources go
[04:56] <cookie_> hello
[04:56] <cookie_> How can I speak over microphone in gaim
[04:56] <TheGline> OK, I got the changelog open
[04:56] <TheGline> Most recent set of changes:
[04:56] <TheGline> ubuntu-docs (7.04.4) feisty; urgency=low
[04:56] <TheGline>   * debian/control: Add missing Pre-depends: on dpkg for bzip2 compression
[04:56] <TheGline>     support.
[04:56] <TheGline>   * debian/rules: Use the same 'poorly translated' barrier for the server
[04:56] <TheGline>     parts of ubuntu-doc, and raise the bar to 30%.
[04:56] <TheGline>   * debian/rules: Add -o /dev/null to msgfmt calls to avoid writing
[04:56] <TheGline>     messages.mo into the root directory.

[04:56] <akio> nickrud: can you help me with a pxe install?
[04:56] <nickrud> !sourceomatic | akio
[04:57] <nickrud> akio: never done a pxe , but if its only sources you need, I can probably help with that
[04:57] <cookie_> anybody, how can I speak over microphone in gaim
[04:57] <Ubotu> akio: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[04:57] <ckarini> i need beryl help...
[04:57] <akio> i just need to enter in a url for the release
[04:57] <tlk> can anyone help me with getting nvidia settings and nvidia glx to be installed at the same time
[04:57] <nickrud> akio: where abouts are you living? country, I mean
[04:57] <akio> im not running ubuntu yet
[04:57] <akio> us, florida
[04:57] <akio> i just booted via pxe
[04:57] <akio> its an OLD laptop
[04:58] <johwil> cookie_: try skype for linux
[04:58] <akio> latitude ls
[04:58] <cookie_> johwil: I need gaim
[04:58] <Poul^Laptop> "add your key ID into the text field" what is the key id??
[04:58] <TheGline> It just seems like the Help function is searching in a completely different place than before, but there's no obvious way to fix that.
[04:58] <tlk> can anyone help me with getting nvidia settings and nvidia glx to be installed at the same time
[04:58] <akio> nickrud: got any tips?
[04:58] <johwil> cookie_: are you sure it should work?
[04:58] <nickrud> akio: a sec fone
[04:58] <jrib> tlk: nvidia-glx includes nvidia settings, don't install the separate package
[04:59] <cookie_> johwil: or a yahoo messenger client for linux that allows me to speak over microphone
[04:59] <tlk> jrib:how do i run nvidia settings
[04:59] <jrib> tlk: 'nvidia-settings'
[04:59] <johwil> cookie_: sry, havnt tested
[05:00] <tlk> jrib: in the termanal?
[05:00] <jrib> tlk: yes
[05:00] <nickrud> akio: if all it's asking is a url, I'd assume that http://us.archive.ubuntu.com would suffice
[05:01] <akio> im getting an error when i try that one
[05:01] <akio> im not sure what it needs
[05:01] <Ants> cookie_: i don't think voice and video are well supported in linux
[05:01] <kishan_> cookie_, i donnot think there is voice support in yahoo messenger for linux
[05:01] <tlk> jrib: thank you very much?
[05:01] <tlk> much.*
[05:01] <jrib> tlk: np? :P
[05:01] <akio> nickrud: im at the point where its asking for an archive server
[05:02] <kishan_> u need to use ekiga or gizmo or skype for voice support cookie_
[05:02] <akio> nickrud: it says please enter the directory in which the mirror of the ubuntu archive is located
[05:02] <nickrud> akio: ah,
[05:02] <Bassxman1> hi everyone
[05:03] <overclucker> "
[05:03] <akio> nickrud: it seems to be hooked up properly, although i cant try and ping from where i am at this point
[05:03] <akio> nickrud: if i tried getting a shell it is extremely limited
[05:03] <m12>  i cant use apache2-ssl-certificate , is there workaround this bug ?
[05:04] <Ants> man, that'd be a huge plus for linux in general if there were better instant messenger integrations w/ msn, yahoo, etc...
[05:04] <mathaeous> Have a somewhat stupid question
[05:04] <mini-me> hey, normally i have a nice window with rounded corners when i raise or lower my sound. But after a restart it is again the old grey rectangle. Does any of you have an idea which program is responsible for this?
[05:04] <nickrud> akio: try  dists/feisty  the the directory
[05:04] <mathaeous> When you right click and select 'set as background image' in Ubuntu, is there anywhere to go and copy that file so it can be used later?
[05:05] <akio> nickrud: tried /ubuntu/dists/dapper
[05:05] <bruenig> mathaeous, its in /usr/share somewhere, go find it
[05:05] <nickrud> akio: that is the path
[05:05] <Bassxman1> can someone help me get sound on ubuntu?
[05:05] <mathaeous> Thanks bruenig
[05:06] <mojo> i have a question, does anyone here know where I can find technical doc on casper-rw? (the persistent USB Ubuntu partition)
[05:07] <mathaeous> Bassxman1, what exactly is the issue you're having?
[05:07] <nickrud> akio: lik I said, I've never done a pxe install so I'm pretty much just stabbing in the dark here.
[05:07] <josiah> what is the best network management software for wireless?/
[05:09] <Bassxman1> i have no sound
[05:09] <Frogzoo> josiah: chillispot ?
[05:09] <Moniker42> hey, how do i increase the buffer size of totem?
[05:09] <nickrud> Bassxman1: what chip & laptop?
[05:09] <mathaeous> Do you know what kind of sound card you have?
[05:09] <gerath> I having a hard time trying to install linux on my Xbox any suggestions i have been too many sites that tell you how but i still not sure
[05:09] <holly_> hello is there any way to resize the with of the gnome panel?
[05:10] <Bassxman1> i have a sound blaster 16
[05:10] <patrick__> Hi, Im trying to install ubuntu on my laptop, and with the partition manager it says to use the largest contiuous free space, as i want to keep a partition for XP, is this the option i should choose?
[05:10] <Bassxman1> im new to this OS so i really have no idea what i am doing
[05:10] <Frogzoo> gerath: maybe try #linux or elsewhere
[05:11] <ViC> patrick backup your files and partition your hd with your windows first
[05:11] <gerath> sorry about that i thought i was that the xbox chat
[05:11] <mathaeous> Do you know how to open a terminal window?
[05:11] <Frogzoo> !sound | Bassxman1
[05:11] <Ubotu> Bassxman1: 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
[05:11] <nickrud> Bassxman1: the old isa one?
[05:11] <patrick__> ViC: what does that option do? i dont have any files other than a copy of MatLab i want to keep on the windows version
[05:12] <Bassxman1> yeah
[05:12] <johwil> Bassxman1: try http://www.cs.cornell.edu/w8/~djm/ubuntu/feisty/#fix-sound
[05:12] <Bassxman1> i have that terminal open now
[05:12] <mathaeous> for craps and gigles, try the following:
[05:12] <mathaeous> /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[05:12] <Ants> patrick__: the simplest way, imo, is to manually partition. your windows is probably hda1; so install ubuntu on a partition other than hda1.
[05:12] <josiah> Frogzoo: im sorry i needed to specify more clearly. Im just looking for some better software than what comes with ubuntu for picking up wireless signals and connecting tothem
[05:12] <johwil> Bassxman1: try http://www.cs.cornell.edu/w8/~djm/ubuntu/feisty/#fix-sound
[05:13] <holly_> hello is there any way to resize the width of the gnome panel?
[05:13] <mathaeous> holly, do you want to resize the width or the height?
[05:13] <innova-pc_> hola
[05:13] <innova-pc_> your speack spanish
[05:14] <patrick__> Ants: when i try to use the ubuntu partion manager the manual way it doesn't work, it just hangs up
[05:14] <rathel> What are the other dtach commands? I just know ctrl+\ is go back to the terminal.
[05:14] <mathaeous> holly?
[05:14] <Ants> patrick__: you don't get to the screen where it asks for the mount points?
[05:14] <Frogzoo> josiah: network manager is actually good when it works & is set up properly
[05:14] <johwil> Bassxman1: or http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_configure_sound_to_work_properly_in_GNOME
[05:14] <patrick__> Ants: no i dont
[05:15] <holly_> mathaeous the width,
[05:15] <epiclulz> oh, hello
[05:15] <epiclulz> i am on UBUNTU!
[05:15] <epiclulz> woohoo
[05:15] <josiah> Frogzoo: ok cool thank you. Im only getting 4/5 bars on this and the computer right next to in running KNetworkManager off of Kubunut is getting all 5 thats why I ask
[05:16] <mathaeous> That I'm not so sure about.  I know you can get kiba-dock and it's fully customizable in both width and height...the gnome panel itself I'm not so sure about
[05:16] <patrick__> with the guided -use the largest contiuous free space it says it will make two new partions, would that work or what does taht do?
[05:16] <nickrud> Bassxman1: was away, did you find a fix yet
[05:16] <holly_> mathaeous: K Thank you.
[05:17] <nomasteryoda> howdy riddlebox
[05:17] <Ants> patrick__: it does precisely what it says, i.e., make 2 new partitions.
[05:17] <patrick__> okay thanks Ants
[05:17] <Bassxman1> im trying something right now
[05:17] <Frogzoo> josiah: not really a network manager issue but lower, in the driver or the card  itself
[05:17] <Ants> patrick__: i just hope you pay enough attention to ensure that windows doesn't get wiped out
[05:18] <nickrud> Bassxman1: if it doesn't work, there's some instructions for a sb16 (blast from the past!) at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToSetupSoundCards
[05:18] <josiah> Frogzoo: ah ok... damned lol
[05:18] <CountX> how can i share a file on ubuntu that a windows machine can access over a network
[05:18] <nomasteryoda> patrick__, you should go slow and be sure...
[05:18] <Bassxman1> ok...thx
[05:18] <epiclulz> anyone know how to fix ubuntu fonts? they dont seem very smooth.
[05:18] <Ants> good luck, patrick__ . and heed nomasteryoda's warning.

[05:21] <stuporglue> I keep getting the error "fork: Resource temporarily unavailable" -- any ideas? Google says it might be because I'm out of memory and swap -- how can I see how much memory programs are using?
[05:21] <bruenig> stuporglue, use top
[05:21] <Mikenichie> does anybody know a command line tool that would replace all the periods in the file with a space?
[05:22] <bruenig> Mikenichie, sed 's/\./ /g' -i textfile
[05:22] <Kr0ntab> any text editor...
[05:22] <Mikenichie> much thanks
[05:22] <stuporglue> Should firefox be using 123m of swap?
[05:22] <Bassxman1> i tried the guide and i get this error    FATAL: Error inserting snd_es18xx (/lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/kernel/sound/isa/snd-es18xx.ko): No such device
[05:22] <epiclulz> bruenig, i installed that.. i dont see the fonts in preferences though
[05:22] <bruenig> epiclulz, just restart the x server
[05:23] <patrick__> Ants:...alright im installing
[05:23] <patrick__> i tried using a different partioner and i think its working haha i hope!
[05:23] <Testure> are SoundConverter and soundKonverter the only mp3 converters for Ubuntu?
[05:24] <nickrud> Bassxman1: that sounds like the wrong module for the card
[05:24] <Hodapp> mp3 convertors?
[05:24] <bruenig> Testure, transcode, mencoder, ffmpeg
[05:24] <nickrud> lame
[05:24] <john> is there anyway to have my wintv card play directly through my sound blaster card without using a cable from lineout to line in?
[05:24] <Hodapp> encoders? decoders?
[05:25] <akio> is there a better channel for pxe?
[05:25] <Bassxman1> oh...so what do i do now?
[05:25] <akio> nickrud: is there a better channel for pxe?
[05:25] <nickrud> Bassxman1: look at that page I gave; it explains how to set up the non-pnp card you have
[05:25] <scratchme> Hi all.
[05:26] <Bassxman1> ok
[05:26] <john> anyone?
[05:26] <scratchme> I have a VM I run in VMWare Workstation 6.  When I use the network more than lightly, the sound crackles, and the VM stutters.  Any tips on how to troubleshoot this?
[05:26] <ziroday> john: i highly doubt it, they do put the cable in for a reason :)
[05:26] <scratchme> As an aside, none of my Windows VMs do that.
[05:26] <Hodapp> scratchme: what guest OS?
[05:27] <john> right but why is my sound card not recognizing it?  thanks
[05:27] <scratchme> Guest is Ubuntu Linux 7.04, pre-allocated HDs.
[05:27] <ziroday> john: you mean the line in?
[05:27] <nickrud> akio: I don't know, really. I do know that people who know it in their sleep come thru here
[05:27] <john> yeah....
[05:27] <akio> grrr
[05:27] <johwil> laaaag...
[05:27] <Testure> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[05:27] <JeevesMoss> can anyone help me with this PHP/MySQL problem?
[05:27] <ziroday> john: what do you mean by not recognizing it. It should just play through the sound card out to your speakers
[05:28] <Testure> how do i fix that
[05:28] <ziroday> Testure: run sudo dpgk --configure -a as it says
[05:28] <bruenig> Testure, like it says run sudo dpkg --configure -a
[05:29] <josiah> what does gnome use for its archiving tool? like ark for kde
[05:29] <bruenig> josiah, file-roller maybe, I am not sure it has a built in archiver
[05:29] <john> hey
[05:30] <Testure> sudo: dpgk: command not found
[05:30] <john> thanks for your help....i plug it from my line out to my line in and nothing.
[05:30] <bruenig> Testure, dpkg not dpgk
[05:30] <john> but if i plug my speakers into the line in it works
[05:31] <MaXcAbE> hi

[05:32] <MaXcAbE> stuporglue sabes necesito poner mi real name en el xchat-gone
[05:32] <MaXcAbE> y no se como hacerlo
[05:32] <bruenig> josiah, I don't quite understand the point of a gui archiver myself
[05:32] <Bassxman1> i still cant figure it out
[05:32] <Testure> which locale file should i check
[05:32] <josiah> its quick
[05:33] <bruenig> josiah, not as quick as cli
[05:33] <Helzibah> MaXcAbE: /join #ubuntu-es
[05:33] <ziroday> john: therefore its either the cable or the wintv card
[05:33] <josiah> bruenig: its quicker for me... im slow at navigating
[05:33] <aliverius> anybody here using satanic ubuntu?
[05:33] <john> do you think it could be the wintv drivers?
[05:34] <alex__> anyone familiar with the program mono, used for programming VB?
[05:34] <bruenig> aliverius, yeah I am a dev
[05:34] <stuporglue> Maxcabe -- no se, no uso xchat
[05:34] <Sajes> What's Satanic Ubuntu? :O
[05:34] <aliverius> ubuntusatanic.org
[05:34] <aliverius> bruenig, great work!
[05:34] <scratchme> Hodapp at the time it does it, Xorg CPU seems abnormal (like 40+%).  Also top doesn't respond normally so it's hard to tell.
[05:34] <scratchme> Is there a better realtime process visualizer than top?
[05:35] <Bassxman1> can anyone help me with my sound problem?
[05:35] <mneptok> scratchme: htop
[05:35] <bruenig> aliverius, thanks
[05:35] <aliverius>  i adore ubuntu satanic edition
[05:35] <mneptok> alex__: .NET is not VB
[05:35] <nickrud> Bassxman1: I'm no sound expert, but I can help you follow those instructions.

[05:36] <nugget93> hey guys whats up, can anyone think of anything cool that i can do with linux?

[05:36] <Bassxman1> i never did this stuff before
[05:36] <Sajes> Is Ubuntu Satanic edition developed by the Ubuntu team or a third party team? :o
[05:36] <nickrud> Bassxman1: are you at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToSetupSoundCards

[05:39] <josiah> bruenig: when i do wine explorer.exe it doesnt do anything
[05:39] <Sajes> It's supposed to be out in "late /07". 3 more months and it's early /08.

[05:42] <mneptok> alex__: are you a VB coder? or a .NET coder?
[05:42] <patrick__> for setting up a new ubuntu partion do you want ext3 or ext2
[05:42] <nickrud> Bassxman1: just let it keep the old one. There was other stuff in that file you opened, right?
[05:42] <alex__> i have VB.NET class

[05:43] <nickrud> Bassxman1: after you save it, type     cat /etc/modules    and verify it's ok
[05:43] <FreeDance> are you dual booting?
[05:43] <co_cappucino> #surabaya
[05:43] <patrick__> im trying, i have it on this machine, but my laptop ive had many issues trying to install ubuntu as well as having my xp
[05:43] <scratchme> This is my /proc/irq  http://pastebin.ca/692971  How do I tell if I've got some sort of IRQ conflict causing the sound/network issue I seem to be having?
[05:43] <Bassxman1> its ok
[05:44] <alex__> mneptok, i just need a linux replacement for Microsofts Visual Studio
[05:44] <mneptok> alex__: does the class include a license for Visual Studio?
[05:44] <FreeDance> without formatting its very hard
[05:44] <mathaeous> OK, Anyone know anything about amarok?
[05:44] <Parkin_m9999999> hi all
[05:44] <mathaeous> hi Parkin
[05:44] <alex__> yeah, but then i have to emulate, and i was hoping to avoid it
[05:44] <nickrud> ok, next step:     sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa_sb16            (use the driver name so it's obvious)
[05:44] <FreeDance> tho possible
[05:44] <alex__> i heard mono was a replacement, but i can't get it run
[05:44] <patrick__> yeah
[05:44] <nickrud> Bassxman1: that will be an empty, new file
[05:45] <mneptok> alex__: there is Eclipse
[05:45] <patrick__> ive been playing around, i think i finally got it, just the ubuntu partioner keeps messing up
[05:45] <alex__> isn't that java?
[05:45] <Bassxman1> it is
[05:45] <FreeDance> yup i had the same thing
[05:45] <Parkin_m9999999> <just installed ubuntu for the first time and strugging to get monitor to the right resolution could anyone help? :)
[05:45] <mneptok> alex__: or you can use RealBasic and actually get educated instead of indoctrinated
[05:45] <FreeDance> whats happening for you?
[05:45] <cdm10> !res | Parkin_m9999999, see if this helps
[05:45] <Ubotu> Parkin_m9999999, see if this helps: 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
[05:45] <patrick__> it just stops at parts or wont give me the same options each time i try
[05:45] <mneptok> alex__: Eclipse is a Java app, but an IDE for many languages
[05:45] <FreeDance> ahh...
[05:45] <patrick__> its really odd, but im getting there
[05:45] <FreeDance> sucks dosent it
[05:46] <patrick__> yeah
[05:46] <FreeDance> lol
[05:46] <nickrud> Bassxman1: ok, now hightlight the line in the instructions that starts with options snd-sb16 , move the mouse to the terminal window and press the middle button
[05:46] <alex__> is that what you'd recommend? i just have to make sure the code is still implimented the same
[05:46] <FreeDance> the grub loader keep stuffing up for me
[05:46] <patrick__> and i couldnt find any other good partioners, so i was going to try installing another distro and then just converting it to ubuntu
[05:46] <FreeDance> and i had to re install ubuntu like 6 times
[05:46] <mathaeous> I just installed Amarok, ran it, loaded, played the demo sound, froze, I had to kill, wouldn't load again, restarted X, it still won't load...anyone face this issue?
[05:46] <bruenig> FreeDance, why would you do that
[05:46] <bruenig> mathaeous, run it in the terminal
[05:47] <FreeDance> use windows partion
[05:47] <cdm10> patrick__: have you tried the GParted LIveCD? Sometimes when Ubuntu's partitioner (also GParted) doesn't work, it works.
[05:47] <mathaeous> it just goes to the next line and hangs, no error message, program doesn't load...
[05:47] <bruenig> mathaeous, hmmm
[05:47] <patrick__> yeah the gparted live cd didnt work for me, i might try it again, thanks cmd10
 because it keep stuffing up grub
[05:47] <Bassxman1> uhm...where are the instructions?
[05:47] <ubuntu> i have fedora installed on my machine. can i install ubuntu without deleting fedora
[05:47] <bruenig> FreeDance, you don't have to reinstall the whole thing to tinker with grub
[05:47] <nickrud> Bassxman1: that web page I gave you
[05:47] <bruenig> FreeDance, just put the live cd in
[05:47] <epiclulz> why are all my fonts look so jagged?
[05:47] <Xaelgrim> Hi, I was wondering if someone would be interested in helping my with the 7.04 installation?
[05:47] <FreeDance> Patrick> did u try windows partioner?
[05:48] <patrick__> no i dont think i have
[05:48] <mneptok> alex__: you could ask your prof if you can work in RB ;)
i aint usen live cd /got it
[05:48] <FreeDance> patrick it worked for me
[05:48] <patrick__> but i have the partions now, just need to make the 'free space' a mount point, and have the swap one too
[05:48] <FreeDance> ahh ok
[05:48] <cdm10> patrick__: you can't mount free space
[05:48] <Xaelgrim> i downloaded ubuntu but my machine doesnt seem to detect the cd
[05:48] <Bassxman1> ok...i got it
[05:48] <alex__> we tried that, he's anal
[05:49] <cdm10> alex__: wha?
[05:49] <nickrud> Bassxman1: close and save, cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-sb16 to verify again
[05:49] <mneptok> alex__: please don't insult the anal-retentive by comparing them to Windows sheep
[05:49] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: what do you mean, it won't detect it? When you reboot the computer with the CD in, does it not boot to it?
[05:49] <epiclulz> someone help me... all my fonts look jagged. even with smoothing, they look like smoother version of jagged edges
[05:49] <patrick__> cmd10, im using the partioner to take the free space, make it a ext3 with a "/" mount point
[05:49] <patrick__> or at least trying haha
[05:49] <cdm10> patrick__: the making it an ext3 comes before the / mount point
[05:49] <user_> Is there something for firefox that will let you save .flv's off youtube without going to keepvid or youtubex to download?
[05:50] <alex__> thing is, he's a linux user, i mean if it's going to be complicated, i have xp on my pc, just don't want to use it
[05:50] <cdm10> user_: look on addons.mozilla.org, i think there's something.
[05:50] <Banie_> hai
[05:50] <Banie_> how to fix this
[05:50] <cdm10> patrick__: you mount it after you create the partition.
[05:50] <Banie_> eh kat screen kuar failed to start the x server your grafical interface
[05:50] <Banie_> failed to start the x server your grafical interface
[05:50] <alex__> i'm just stuck on mono, because a kid in my class, said it's the exact same as visual studio, i just can't get it work
[05:50] <mneptok> alex__: show him http://realsoftware.com
[05:50] <Xaelgrim> I understand Im not the only one seeking help here, but if someone has a chance I really need help with the installation of Ubuntu 7.04
[05:50] <Banie_> not set correctly
[05:50] <Bassxman1> ok...it there
[05:51] <mneptok> alex__: write once, run on Win/OSX/Linux
[05:51] <luckyone_> when you enable desktop effects how do you get the cube to rotate?
[05:51] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: I just tried to help you... if you answer my question, I'll be able to help you more.
[05:51] <mathaeous> Xaelgrim, what problem are you having?
[05:51] <nickrud> Bassxman1: ok, now    sudo modprobe snd-sb16   ; there should be no output at all
[05:51] <Xaelgrim> cdm10: may i pm you?
[05:51] <mneptok> alex__: and if you know VB, you're 95% ready for RealBasic
[05:51] <luckyone_> I can see the other beryl/compiz-ish effects, but not the cube
[05:51] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: sure, but I prefer if you keep it in the channel. That way, other people can help if they see something they know how to fix.
[05:51] <alex__> is there a free version of realbasic?
[05:52] <Bassxman1> ok there is no output
[05:52] <cdm10> luckyone_: hmm, the normal desktop effects in Ubuntu have weird defaults, so the cube doesn't always work.
[05:52] <Xaelgrim> ok np,
[05:52] <Xaelgrim> well i d/l the latest version and burnd a cd
[05:52] <mneptok> alex__: free demos
[05:52] <cdm10> luckyone_: try asking in #ubuntu-effects, there's a way to get the cube properly enabled
[05:52] <nickrud> Bassxman1: now type     alsamixer     and run up the volumes to about 70%
[05:52] <mneptok> alex__: http://realsoftware.com/users/visualbasic/
[05:52] <Xaelgrim> but when i restart my computer it doesnt detect it
[05:52] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: Okay. Do you know if your computer is set up to boot from the CD?
[05:53] <luckyone_> cdm10: thanks for the redirect!
[05:53] <Xaelgrim> yes, it is
[05:53] <Bassxman1> ok
[05:53] <mneptok> alex__: http://realsoftware.cachefly.net/REALbasic2007r4/REALbasicLinux.deb
[05:53] <mneptok> alex__: there's your free demo
[05:53] <patrick__> okay now its hung up on partitions formatting -creating ext3 file system for / in partition #3 of IDE3 mast.....
[05:53] <patrick__> at 5%
[05:53] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: when you burned the CD, how did you do that?
[05:53] <n00dl3> basic o_O
[05:53] <alex__> does the demo expire or just restrict my usage?
[05:53] <Bassxman1> its on 70%
[05:53] <patrick__> should i leave it or what?
[05:53] <mneptok> alex__: 30 days, i think
[05:53] <mathaeous> Xaelgrim, in your bios, set the optical device as your 1st boot option.
[05:53] <nickrud> Bassxman1: ok, play some music
[05:53] <Xaelgrim> I copied all the files that came in the .zip to my d: drive then burned them
[05:54] <mneptok> alex__: i *believe* it's feature complete but time limited
[05:54] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: that's not what youre supposed to do.
[05:54] <alex__> ok, i'll give it a try
[05:54] <Xaelgrim> eh?
[05:54] <mneptok> alex__: and no, i have no relationship with Real Software ;)
[05:54] <nickrud> Bassxman1: to exit, hit escape.  Also, be sure you raised master/main and pcm
[05:54] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: it's not a zip, it's an ISO. You don't burn the files in it to the disk, you burn the ISO as an image. Windows doesn't come with the necessary software to do that, so I'll find a free one that does, hold on a sec.

[05:55] <alex__> but just for kicks, do u know why i'd get this message when starting mono "Usage is: mono [options]  program [program-options"
[05:55] <josiah> every time I reboot my computer I have to run "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper"... is there a way to make it run automatically?
[05:55] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: the link at the end of the ubotu message should help
[05:55] <mathaeous> ISOBurn
[05:55] <mathaeous> I believe that's freeware
[05:55] <nickrud> infrarecorder also
[05:55] <mathaeous> google it
[05:55] <alex__> and then when i run mono program i get this "Cannot open assembly program."
[05:55] <Xaelgrim> thank you for your help cdm10
[05:55] <cdm10> mathaeous: the Ubuntu wiki recommends one i think
[05:55] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: no problem
[05:56] <LM1> I don't have a problem, but I do have a question.   I previously had integrated ATI graphics, then I upgraded to a new Nvidia 8600gts card.      Before with the ati graphics my computer LCD screen WOULD NOT turn its backlight off,   but now with my new nvidia card it shuts off the backlight just fine... any ideas on what would cause this?
[05:56] <Combatjuan> Does my nVidia display driver automatically update when I apt-get dist-upgrade or do I have to do something manually?  When I apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2-6-20-386, it tells me that it is already the newest version but I'm not sure I believe it.
[05:56] <mneptok> alex__: Mono is not an app, it's a runtime.
[05:56] <mneptok> alex__: you use Mono to invoke .NET apps. like you would a JVM.
[05:56] <mneptok> it's not an IDE
[05:56] <LM1> Combatjuan,  ubuntu never ugrades anything unless its for security purposes
[05:57] <alex__> ah, so this kid in my class didn't know what he was talking about?
[05:57] <mneptok> LM1: not entirely true. there's backports.
[05:57] <Combatjuan> LM1: By "automatically" I mean "automatically" when I tell it to apt-get dist-upgrade.
[05:57] <cdm10> Combatjuan: I'd recommend that you use Ubuntu's normal upgrade tool rather than using apt-get for that purpose.
[05:57] <Combatjuan> Sorry about that.
[05:57] <nickrud> LM1: ati sucks?
[05:57] <cdm10> Combatjuan: only if the new version has been released in the repos.
[05:57] <mneptok> alex__: Mono is a framework that allows development and execution of .NET code on Linux. nothing more.
[05:57] <NT> not anymore
[05:57] <cdm10> Combatjuan: and that only happens for security reasons normally
[05:57] <LM1> oh... I dunno I never do that... I have killed to many systems doing that so I just reformat
[05:57] <Combatjuan> Ubuntu's normal upgrade?  What is more normal at installing things than apt?
[05:57] <NT> ati,  is going opensource
[05:58] <NT> soon
[05:58] <LM1> yeah it figures
[05:58] <LM1> just as soon as I buy nvidia
[05:58] <Rubin> what piece of gnome is responsible for automounting usb disks?
[05:58] <nickrud> it still sucks, it might not real soon now
[05:58] <LM1> I wanted to go ati, but then I thought... no their linux driver support sux
[05:58] <cdm10> Combatjuan: Well, I'm not very experienced with APT, but isn't dist-upgrade not normally what you should be using all the time? Ubuntu has an upgrade tool, I suppose it just does what you're doing, though.
[05:58] <mneptok> alex__: my guess is that once your prof understands that RealBasic is the real inheritor of VB, he'll make the jump.
[05:58] <LM1> so I spent $30 on an nvidia card
[05:58] <LM1> LOL
[05:58] <nickrud> Rubin: hal does that
[05:58] <Bassxman1> it works
[05:58] <Bassxman1> thanks
[05:59] <nickrud> Bassxman1: yw
[05:59] <Combatjuan> cdm10: What do you use to upgrade?
[05:59] <LM1> oh well at least my lcd screen turns off now when idle... man that was annoying
[05:59] <ohyouguys> anyone's fonts look messed up? completely not smooth and jaggy. how do you fix this
[05:59] <zwenx> hi
[05:59] <alex__> well i'll definitely mention it
[05:59] <LM1> so annoying... that and my resolution was stuck at 1024x786
[05:59] <cdm10> Combatjuan: Are you not using a GUI? 'cause when updates are released to the repos, I get a little notification prompting me to update.
[06:00] <alex__> thanks for your help mneptok
[06:00] <zwenx> heh, guys, compiz is amazing :)
[06:00] <nickrud> cdm10: is there a particular reason the upgrader should be used over dist-upgrade?
[06:00] <BillyBeans> hi
[06:00] <zwenx> hi
[06:00] <mneptok> nickrud: the GUI updater has had more attention than other tools.
[06:00] <BillyBeans> has anyone tried solaris 10?
[06:00] <Combatjuan> cdm10: I use KDE (Kubuntu) but I'm kind of a command line sort of guy.  I get notifications for security upgrades but I generally upgrade daily and dist-upgrade when the changelog on the kernel seems beneficial.
[06:00] <zwenx> i'm using gnome ubuntu
[06:00] <hehehe> leh kenalan
[06:00] <zwenx> KDE is way to windows like for me
[06:01] <nickrud> mneptok: attention, sounds good.
[06:01] <Combatjuan> zwenx: Explain?
[06:01] <Bassxman1> ok...here is another  problem....how can i use my mic?
[06:01] <zwenx> it takes a very long time to load
[06:01] <hehehe> halo
[06:01] <zwenx> it tries to focus too much on GUI
[06:01] <zwenx> compared to xfce or gnome
[06:01] <zwenx> or even fluxbox
[06:01] <lotus-blade> how do I get ssh to work?  I try to do an apt-get on it and there is no match and I try to find it on the system and there is nothing there either
[06:01] <nickrud> ah, mic's, it seems everyone has problems with mic's. Bassxman1 no, I have never used a mic. I'm just a fuddy duddy I guess
[06:02] <cdm10> nickrud: I don't actually know, but for some reason I thought it did something more than a simple apt-get upgrade.
[06:02] <Combatjuan> zwenx: I disagree fully.  But that's the beauty of Linux, is it not?  (-8
[06:02] <zwenx> apt-get update
[06:02] <zwenx> apt-get upgrade
[06:02] <zwenx> apt-get install ssh
[06:02] <Bassxman1> hmm...ok
[06:02] <zwenx> give that a try
[06:02] <zwenx> or try a simple google search
[06:02] <alex__> mneptok; i found something new http://www.monodevelop.com/Image:Md-main.png that's an exact replica of Visual Studio
[06:03] <nickrud> cdm10: I thought it did a dist-upgrade, but I can imagine that there are some things it does that used to be in the notes, like installing ubuntu-desktop (maybe) I guess I should read the changelog some day
[06:03] <alex__> i just missed the Develop part before
[06:03] <Combatjuan> lotus-blade: The ssh package is for both client and server.  Once you install it you should be able to ssh into that computer right off the bat.
[06:03] <bullgard4> find / needs 50 minutes on my Ubuntu 7.04 computer with an Intel M processor. Is there a benchmark to compare the performance of several Linux computers for operations like find?
[06:03] <zwenx> anyone have compiz?
[06:03] <hehehe> halo
[06:04] <cdm10> nickrud: From using the Gutsy tribes, it seems that it doesn't normally do a dist-upgrade... several times, it said that it couldn't complete a normal upgrade, and that it would do a distribution update. I guess that's when it does a dist-upgrade. When a new release is out, it automatically goes through the sources.list changing, and maybe installs your desktop metapackage.
[06:04] <nickrud> bullgard4: did you have find drop all that to the console?
[06:04] <Sajes> bullgard4, it takes me 5 minutes.. but then again, it's got nothing on in other than Ubuntu and the preinstalled software that Ubuntu comes with. (Using an Intel Pentium 4)
[06:04] <Combatjuan> bullgard: You can use the command "time" before "find /" and it will tell you how long it took.
[06:04] <hehehe> halo
[06:05] <Xaelgrim> cdm10: I just tried to burn ubuntu to an image file with nero but I dont think im doing it right
[06:05] <Netslayer> is there any advantage to putting the root partition infront of the swap partition on a drive?
[06:05] <nickrud> cdm10: a dist-upgrade can remove or add packages, and a regular update cannot. That's probably what it's talking about.
[06:05] <Combatjuan> bullgard4: So "$time find /"  Does that help?
[06:05] <chuy_max> forwarding X through ssh is very slow, is there another option that doesn't use encryption?
[06:05] <Stanley> Someone mind helping me out setting the geometry on 4 xterm's to fit perfectly and evenly on my screen. Preferably in private chat.
[06:05] <bullgard4> nickrud: I do not understand you precisely. I did a 2>/dev/null at the end of my find command
[06:06] <nickrud> bullgard4: so, no, you didn't. :)
[06:06] <cdm10> nickrud: yep, that's what it said. I haven't seen a dist-upgrade happen in a release version of Ubuntu when using Update Manager, I guess it really only goes on during alpha testing and distribution upgrades
[06:06] <Parkin_m9999999> i am trying to get my hdtv to display its native resolution (1366*768) on ubuntu on my mobo gfx card.. could anyone help? :)
[06:06] <dragon> has any one figured out how to get yahoo chat rooms with the new protocol
[06:07] <Xaelgrim> cdm10: I just tried to burn ubuntu to an image file with nero but I dont think im doing it right
[06:07] <riotkittie> MADNESS. i swear, somebody created this adapter and this chipset  solely to drive me insane
[06:07] <nickrud> cdm10: normally dist-upgrade is run only when changing distributions (hence the name) and I'd venture a guess that update-manager is choosing, hopefully intelligently :) Like I said, I need to read the changelog
[06:07] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: try following Ubuntu's instructions in the link I sent you through Ubotu. Here, I'll do it again:

[06:09] <dragon> well now when you log onto yahoo and try to get into a room it asks you to authenticate what program work for that
[06:09] <Parkin_m9999999> i am trying to get my hdtv to display its native resolution (1366*768) on ubuntu on my mobo gfx card.. could anyone help? :)

[06:11] <cdm10> perds: at any rate, let's try to get your Firefox back. Go to Applications>Accessories>Terminal please
[06:11] <makaveli> i'm trying to get the linksys wpc300n working on ubuntu edgy and i used ndsik to install driver bcmwl5.inf but it is not showing up in the network connections tools help pleasy
[06:11] <cdm10> CMA: Could you try your question again?
[06:11] <CMA> with hd-media you can install from on a hard-disk with a .iso image without cd
[06:11] <overclucker> josia man modprobe.d
[06:11] <nickrud> tedonio1: you probably have an option set somewhere in the panel; if you can identify what the path to the config in gconf-editor, you can delete the entire config and it should reappear when you restart the panel
[06:11] <perds> I'm at terminal window now cdm10
[06:11] <cdm10> CMA: What is hd-media? Is there another word you could use?
[06:11] <tedonio1> thanks nick, I will try that.
[06:12] <cdm10> perds: type this: < sudo aptitude reinstall firefox >
[06:12] <cdm10> perds: that may not work, if not, try < sudo aptitude reinstall mozilla-firefox >
[06:12] <cdm10> perds: if that doesn't work, try both again, but this time use install instead of reinstall
[06:12] <bullgard4> nickrud: Your answer " bullgard4: so, no, you didn't. :)" is not really helpful.
[06:12] <nickrud> tedonio1: that's a guess, I've not used wcid myself
[06:12] <chuyyx> yi
[06:12] <CMA> hd-media not has oter name, is te correct, a kernel with an initrd image than can i use for instal from a hardisk reading content of a iso image

[06:14] <dragon> thank you
[06:14] <Caydel_> does anyone know why ca.archive.ubuntu.com is down?
[06:14] <bullgard4> Combatjuan: What is $time supposed to effect? I do not know such a command. Please explain.
[06:14] <cdm10> CMA: Ah, hard disk. I'm not familiar with installing that way, but if it helps, I know that once you install any version of Ubuntu, you can install another one (like Kubuntu) right over it.
[06:14] <Combatjuan> CMA: hd-media is an image or a program or what?  Is there a website to use?
[06:14] <Parkin_m9999999> CMA: could you help me...? i really have no idea what i am doing on linux
[06:14] <Parkin_m9999999> Combatjuan: thanks :p
[06:14] <Combatjuan> bullgard4:  The command is simply "time".  The "$" was there to show that you would run it as root from the command line.
[06:14] <CMA> ahh google
[06:14] <CMA> :p
[06:15] <cdm10> Combatjuan: # is root, not $ :)
[06:15] <Parkin_m9999999> CMA: just installed linux today >_>

[06:15] <cdm10> heh
[06:15] <Bassxman1> thats weird.....my mic sound is coming in my headset
[06:15] <cdm10> Bassxman1: you can turn that off in the volume control
[06:15] <mathaeous> I read somewhere that Amarok could display the lyrics of a song that's playing, is this true, and if so, how do I use this feature? Anyone?
[06:16] <CMA> oh Parkin_m9999999, surf the web hehe
[06:16] <bullgard4> Sajes: What does "to get nothing in other than" mean? Say this in other words please.
[06:16] <cdm10> mathaeous: yes, just go to the Context tab, and along the top there's a Lyrics button.
[06:16] <Combatjuan> bullgard4: So for instance, if I do "time ls", it prints the listing of the current directory and then it says something like "took 0.01 seconds to display, 0.001 seconds of processor time"
[06:16] <Sajes> ....? I didn't say that.

[06:17] <rexkwando> I decided to give desktop-effects a go, but nothing works.  I have a compatible setup, but compiz-core keeps asking for an upgrade, no matter how many times I upgrade it... any ideas?

[06:20] <tonyyarusso> perds: what do you mean you don't have a web browser?
[06:20] <cdm10> perds: however, since you have no browser, it's of little use.
[06:20] <bullgard4> Combatjuan: Thank you very much for explaining. But I am looking for a more universal benchmarking tool which can make meaningful comparisons about the computing performance or power  of several Linux computers when doing operations like find / -type f -exec grep '<findstring>' {} +
[06:20] <cdm10> perds: do < sudo aptitude install firefox >
[06:20] <Combatjuan> CMA: Me entiendes?
[06:20] <CMA> si
[06:20] <nickrud> perds: do you have a gui?
[06:20] <cdm10> nickrud: yeah, his firefox is just gone
[06:20] <Xaelgrim> cdm10: Ok I followed the link you sent me however the file I downloaded in the /rar format didnt contain a .iso file
[06:20] <perds> I accidently remove firefox using add/remove under application
[06:20] <tonyyarusso> cdm10: how'd he pull that off?
[06:20] <tonyyarusso> oh
[06:20] <nickrud> cdm10: oh, how in the world ...
[06:20] <cdm10> perds: can you type firefox in the command prompt and tell me what happens?
[06:20] <chetnick> hi guys i have a problem with my wireless Netgear wg511t card. I am on ubuntu feisty and it worked fine. Everything looks fine it just dont see the device

[06:21] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: I'm not familiar with that way of installing, please install from the ISO.
[06:21] <perds> I'm a newbie:)
[06:21] <Kechiwa> hi
[06:21] <Xaelgrim> I would if I could find one

[06:21] <nickrud> perds: lol, not not quite if you've picked that up :)
[06:21] <tonyyarusso> perds: You've been told three options - have you tried any?
[06:21] <perds> I dont even know wat command to type
[06:21] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: go to ubuntu.com, they're right there

[06:23] <pierrefermat> hello all. i installed fawn couple of days back, and changed my xorg.conf to enable beryl. I installed the latest updates, which apart from other stuff, installed the
[06:23] <pierrefermat>  2.6.20-16-generic kernel. when i tried booting into this, X threw an error saying "cannot load intel,module not found." when i changed the driver to i810, stuff works.this happens in both in 2.6.20-12-generic and 2.6.20-16-generic kernels after the update. could somebody help me in this please?

[06:24] <cdm10> nalioth: I realize that, but why the ban?
[06:24] <cdm10> nalioth: nvm, it was a ban-redirect
[06:24] <jmak642> so i'm looking for an app like visio
[06:24] <jmak642> anyone know of anything?
[06:24] <tonyyarusso> cdm10: not to mention that it was being _removed_
[06:24] <cdm10> tonyyarusso: I saw a ban, i guess that was just a ban-redirect though.
[06:24] <bullgard4> nickrud: I expected an objective answer. Not an answer that depends on a particular person. But you gave me an answer that depends where a person, namely you, is going. This is subjectivism, and I was not looking for such.
[06:24] <cdm10> perds: try doing < sudo aptitude install epiphany-browser > to get another browser.
[06:24] <nalioth> cdm10: if you look, that was a ban _removal_

[06:25] <devinderbhullar> hi
[06:25] <devinderbhullar> how do i kill a process in ubuntu
[06:25] <nickrud> bullgard4: no. if you read back , you'll see that I asked a question. You answered it with what you did. I said that my thoughts were not applicable. Objective.
[06:25] <Combatjuan> jmak642: Is Visio is a Microsoft Office's drawing program?  Open Office has a Drawing part that is supposedly a competitor.  I don't know how they comparte though.
[06:25] <devinderbhullar> ctrl c does not work
[06:25] <Xaelgrim> cdm10: I went to http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download like it says to do on the help page you sent me to
[06:26] <Xaelgrim> the problem is I cant seem to find an iso
[06:26] <Combatjuan> devinderbhullar: Is it a console process or a gui process?
[06:26] <devinderbhullar> a console process
[06:26] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: it's right there. Click the Start Download button and you'll get an ISO.
[06:26] <Kechiwa> tonyyarusso: starting Gnome dispaly manager fail
[06:26] <devinderbhullar> perl process
[06:26] <Xaelgrim> I did
[06:26] <Xaelgrim> and it keeps downloading that .rar with all the files in it
[06:26] <omturyx_h> Combatjuan, you can try 'dia'
[06:26] <Combatjuan> devinderbhullar: If console, ctrl-c should work.  If it doesn't, get a new console and type "sudo killall <PROGRAMNAME>"
[06:27] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: are you sure it's not an ISO that your RAR program is opening?
[06:27] <devinderbhullar> how do i get the PROGRAMNAME
[06:27] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: save it to the desktop, see what it is...
[06:27] <Xaelgrim> yes, because there are multiple files
[06:27] <parkin_m> i am trying to get my hdtv to display its native resolution (1366*768) on ubuntu on my mobo gfx card.. could anyone help? :)
[06:27] <XorgConf> when ichange from Driver		"intel" to driver"i810" things work
[06:27] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: ISOs can look like that too, if an archive program wants to open them. Please do as I asked and save the file to your desktop.
[06:27] <Combatjuan> devinderbhullar: It would be the command that you typed.  Otherwise, you can type "ps -AL" and look through the list of processes to find the one that might be it.
[06:27] <omturyx_h> devinderbhullar, try ps ax |less
[06:28] <Kechiwa> dunno why xorg cannot restart
[06:28] <Xaelgrim> cdm10: Ive done that
[06:28] <Xaelgrim> its on my desktop
[06:28] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: and what is the file called?
[06:28] <Xaelgrim> ill chceck
[06:28] <Kechiwa> any idea?
[06:28] <Xaelgrim> ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386
[06:28] <Combatjuan> devinderbhullar: If you are in KDE, you can press Ctrl-Escape and it will show you all the running processes and various data on them and you can easily kill the process from there.  Not sure if gnome has an equivalent.
[06:28] <Xaelgrim> and the second one i d/lk is ubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386
[06:28] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: right click it and go to properties, tell me what it shows you there.
[06:28] <XorgConf> folks, could you please help me with my X issue.. please look into my prev msgs. thanks
[06:29] <Combatjuan> Kechiwa: Have you looked at /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
[06:29] <Xaelgrim> ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
[06:29] <devinderbhullar> ok its called usr/bin/StartManager.pl
[06:29] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: yep, it's an ISO. Seriously.
[06:29] <parkin_m> i am trying to get my hdtv to display its native resolution (1366*768) on ubuntu on my mobo gfx card.. could anyone help? :)
[06:29] <devinderbhullar> how can i kill this processs

[06:29] <Xaelgrim> why does it look like a .rar
[06:29] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: because it's set to open with your RAR program
[06:29] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: check out the last link in the Ubotu message, it'll tell you how to burn the ISO.
[06:30] <cdm10> Xaelgrim: this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[06:30] <CMA> ot, and so crazy: I can burn cd-rom with 'cat' command?
[06:30] <XorgConf> hello cdm10.. could you please help me with my xorg.conf?i installed fawn couple of days back, and changed my xorg.conf to enable beryl. I installed the latest updates, which apart from other stuff, installed the
[06:30] <XorgConf>  2.6.20-16-generic kernel. when i tried booting into this, X threw an error saying "cannot load intel,module not found." when i changed the driver to i810, stuff works.this happens in both in 2.6.20-12-generic and 2.6.20-16-generic kernels after the update.
[06:31] <Combatjuan> devinderbhullar: I suspect that that perl script  would run under the perl process but someone more knowledgable would have to confirm.  If you're not running anything else under perl, try "killall perl".
[06:31] <cdm10> XorgConf: I have no idea how to help you, please don't ask specific chatroom members for help unless you have a good reason to believe that they will know how to help you.
[06:31] <XorgConf> sorry.
[06:32] <Combatjuan> cdm10: Being requested by name in an IRC channel is the sincerest form of flattery.  (-8
[06:32] <cdm10> Combatjuan: yes, but it still bugs me, just because I don't know enough to actually answer the question :)
[06:33] <cdm10> XorgConf: Sorry if I was harsh, it's just that I've read your question at least 3 times. If I could have helped you, I would have by now :)
[06:33] <juan> does anyone know hoe to configure a microphone?
[06:33] <Combatjuan> XorgConf: Have you ever gotten X to start up with the intel driver?  I've never had a computer with one.
[06:33] <XorgConf> i understand. yes. it was actually working fine before the update!
[06:33] <mon^rch> how do I make an iso in linux?
[06:33] <cdm10> XorgConf: try the command < sudo aptitude install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` >
[06:33] <cdm10> mon^rch: do you want to make an ISO image of some files, or copy a disk to an ISO image?
[06:34] <mon^rch> disk
[06:34] <Combatjuan> XorgConf: It looks the package that contains that driver is called xserver-xorg-video-i810  do you have that package installed?  Perhaps it was removed by the update?
[06:34] <cdm10> XorgConf: make sure you're booted up into your latest kernel when you do that, and the ``'s are not quotes, they're the little thing above the ~
[06:34] <XorgConf> acutlly the intel driver is opensource, it is a standard module of the kernel (it was,)
[06:34] <mon^rch> cdm10: I want to copy a disk to iso
[06:34] <cdm10> mon^rch: right click on the CD when it shows up on your desktop, and click Copy Disc. In the Copy To box, choose FIle Image.
[06:34] <Extravert> Does Brother produce better laser printers than HP?
[06:35] <XorgConf> i have acatually booted back to my original kernel

[06:35] <NT> just $100
[06:35] <NT> yup
[06:35] <NT> and it does its job
[06:35] <Extravert> wat?!
[06:35] <cdm10> NT: wait a sec, I'm looking for a laser printer!
[06:35] <Extravert> where
[06:35] <Combatjuan> XorgConf: But even booting back into your original kernel won't bring that package back if it was uninstalled in an upgrade.  (I'm shooting blind here)
[06:35] <cdm10> NT: can I talk to you in #ubuntu-offtopic?
[06:35] <NT> havent worried about ink for like 2 years
[06:35] <perds> do you have any chatroom for greenhorn?...... your way too advance for me.... I can't comprehend some of the things your texting in this room
[06:35] <NT> ok sure
[06:35] <NT> mmm, how do u go there
[06:36] <nickrud> XorgConf: but if you install the xserver-xorg-video-intel you can use
[06:36] <cdm10> NT: type /j #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:36] <nickrud> *it
[06:36] <Combatjuan> perds: This is it.  (-8  What are you trying to do?  I missed your problem
[06:36] <XorgConf> duno..i tried looking into the kernel modules..they seem to be fine
[06:36] <mon^rch> cdm10: tyvm
[06:36] <perds> btw cdm10 I tried sudo aptitude install.... and reinstall firefox
[06:36] <perds> but it cannot find the program
[06:37] <XorgConf> nickrud, am trying to do it now
[06:37] <vontux> hello, how would I create password protected files using "ark" or another gui linux archiving program?
[06:37] <Combatjuan> perds: In a console type "locate bin/firefox"
[06:37] <shadow-theif> sup dudes
[06:37] <Kechiwa> my sound so slow
[06:37] <perds> first I should learn how to paste in the paste bin.... I cant go  using http://.....because I dont have firefox....
[06:37] <Kechiwa> even i set to maximum
[06:38] <tonyyarusso> perds: use a different browser then
[06:38] <Combatjuan> perds: Are you running Gnome or KDE or something else?
[06:38] <XorgConf> i think the kernel update/something else blew away the xserver-xorg-video-intel pkg.  Package xserver-xorg-video-i810 is to be removed.
[06:38] <nickrud> perds: install pastebinit , you can use it to paste from a console
[06:38] <XorgConf> Package xserver-xorg-video-intel is not installed.
[06:38] <perds> I type locate bin/firefox but nothing happen after typing
[06:38] <XorgConf> Selecting previously deselected package xserver-xorg-video-intel.
[06:38] <vontux> hello, how would I create password protected files using "ark" or another gui linux archiving program?
[06:38] <tonyyarusso> perds: did you update the database first?
[06:39] <nickrud> XorgConf: please don't paste, and it appears that the i810 is the preferred driver
[06:39] <tigran> hey in network the computers dont show but if i access it by smb://ip it does, how can i fix this?
[06:39] <perds> how do I update the database tony.... I'm just new... so new... I just installed linux today..
[06:39] <XorgConf> sorry. ok
[06:39] <Combatjuan> nickrud: Nice tip with the pastebinit.  That's pretty neat.
[06:40] <tonyyarusso> perds: 'sudo updatedb'
[06:40] <nickrud> Combatjuan: really helpful for a dead X
[06:40] <XorgConf> let me restart my X and check. thanks nickrud,cdm10
[06:40] <jmak642> is dia as close as i can get to visio?
[06:41] <perds> combat..... I dont know wat a KDE or gnome is.... I'm totally ignorant
[06:41] <perds> I did sudo updatedb tony
[06:41] <omturyx_h> jmak642, I think so.. but it is far behind as of now.
[06:41] <Combatjuan> perds: It sounds like firefox might really not be installed.  The thing is, it's part of the default install (and has been for years).  What did you use to install Ubuntu?
[06:41] <omturyx_h> Is there an oo.org component like dia?
[06:41] <jmak642> omturyx: yeah its really sad
[06:41] <perds> its a two CD given to me by a friend combat
[06:41] <CMA> ramdisk_size for alternate cd installer?
[06:42] <perds> one is install... the other one is live
[06:42] <omturyx_h> I could not draw some ER diagarams with dia.. it is next to pathetic.
[06:42] <tigran> in network the computers dont show but if i access it by smb://ip it does, how can i fix this? *using samba
[06:42] <tonyyarusso> perds: errrrr, what version are you using?
[06:42] <Combatjuan> jmak642: I'm told scribus is a pretty good vector graphics program for linux.  Not sure if that is the sort of thing you are doing with Visio but graphics aren't really my department.
[06:42] <perds> says.. ubuntu for human beings.... version 5.10 for your pc
[06:42] <jesson> u download a java package from terminal j2sdk1.4 it installed already but how come i dont see it in ubuntu startmenu ?? isnt j2sdk an IDE for java?
[06:42] <tonyyarusso> perds: That version is obsolete and no longer supported, FYI.
[06:42] <jmak642> Combatjuan: ok.  i'll check it out.  i am messing with floorplans
[06:43] <omturyx_h> is there a channel for kernel related stuff?
[06:43] <perds> ohhh... where can I get a new one tony?...
[06:43] <tigran> jesson: use netbeans for a java ide if you're looking for one
[06:43] <CMA> jesson, sdk is the sdk not an ide
[06:43] <tonyyarusso> perds: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[06:43] <perds> I'm sorry tony.. I'm a total ignoramus
[06:43] <CMA> jesson, a good ide is netbeans: netbeans.org
[06:43] <jesson> how about a compiler and IDE for c++ ?
[06:44] <tigran> jesson: code::blocks
[06:44] <jesson> softwre that has the both
[06:44] <omturyx_h> what is wrong with gvim ?
[06:44] <omturyx_h> I feel gvim is an ide... :-D
[06:44] <jmak642> what about a program like autocad?
[06:44] <perds> but I can't do it here because I dont have firefox... right now... the only way to do it is to reinstall the whole package... and then of course I will have a firefox then I can download the new version tony
[06:45] <tigran> help me with my question! haha
[06:45] <tigran> n network the computers dont show but if i access it by smb://ip it does, how can i fix this?
[06:45] <Combatjuan> jmak642: I told you wrong.  I didn't mean Scribus (that's a Pagemaker clone (it still might work for you)) I mean inkscape.  Ah.  Sorry.
[06:45] <perds> Is there any way to get the new version at my current situation tony?
[06:45] <CMA> jesson, anjunta is good ide if you has gnome or xfce, build-essential package has common compilers and some tools
[06:46] <tonyyarusso> perds: yes
[06:46] <vontux> Is there a gui application in ubuntu that allows you to create password protected archive files? I can't seem to find that ability on "ark" , "xarchiver"
[06:46] <davidthedrake> Good evening everyone :)
[06:46] <xp_prg> can someone tell me the easiest way to rip a dvd to a video format small and easy enough to upload to youtube please?
[06:46] <CMA> ramdisk_size for alternate cd installer?
[06:46] <perds> can you guide me tony if you wont mind?
[06:46] <nickrud> perds: you can run this in a terminal:    wget -c http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
[06:46] <perds> btw... where did cdm10 go?
[06:46] <tonyyarusso> perds: How much RAM do you have?
[06:47] <jesson> how do i run build essential u download it already . sudo apt-get installed build-essential installed already . wat is on it? how do i run it?
[06:47] <vontux> xp_prg: what formats caqn you upload to youtube?
[06:47] <tonyyarusso> perds: Do you have a 32-bit or 64-bit processor?
[06:47] <perds> 512 MB tony
[06:47] <vontux> xp_prg: there is .ogg which "thoggen" would create
[06:47] <xp_prg> I think lots
[06:47] <perds> wud that be enough?
[06:47] <tonyyarusso> perds: yes
[06:47] <xp_prg> ogg is not video though is it?
[06:47] <perds> ok tony I'll do it
[06:47] <Flannel> jesson: build-essential downloads a bunch of stuff, compilers, libraries, other parts of the standard toolchain.  ARe you trying to compile something?
[06:48] <vontux> xp_prg: it is both audio and video
[06:48] <Combatjuan> xp_prg: Ogg has lots of different codecs, ogg vorbis is audio, ogg theora is video.
[06:48] <nickrud> xp_prg: ogg is a container, it can carry audio or video
[06:48] <Shockman> can someone help pls
[06:48] <Shockman> somehow i erased my /tmp/
[06:48] <jesson> yah i am trying to complie a cpp , how do i make it executable ?
[06:48] <tonyyarusso> perds: All right, open up a terminal, and try this: 'wget http://ftp.belnet.be/pub/mirror/ubuntu.com/releases/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent' (without the quotes)
[06:48] <Combatjuan> It should be possible for perds to just paste a new /etc/apt/sources.list and then update and dist-upgrade, should it not?
[06:48] <Shockman> and now i cant login
[06:48] <CMA> jesson, the compilers are console based, gcc, g++, etc, install anjunta ide, you can search with apt-cache search keyword
[06:48] <tonyyarusso> Shockman: /tmp gets erased every time you reboot, for one
[06:48] <Flannel> !compile | jesson
[06:48] <Ubotu> jesson: 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!)
[06:48] <CMA> plase someone help me
[06:49] <CMA> ramdisk_size for alternate cd installer?
[06:49] <zwenx> hey
[06:49] <jesson> so here wat i do g++ helloworld.cpp ? something like that ??
[06:49] <perds> its downloading right now using the first command you suggested tony:)
[06:49] <zwenx> Guys, I have a question please tell me when you guys can help
[06:49] <Shockman> but i erased personally while i was in the session
[06:49] <Scunizi> CMA: 196mg
[06:49] <jesson> where do the output file go?
[06:49] <vontux> Shockman: could you try manually recreating it with a live cd?
[06:49] <Shockman> now i cant login
[06:49] <Combatjuan> jesson: If it is just one file then do "g++ -o <EXENAME> something.cpp"
[06:49] <davidthedrake> !ask | zwenx
[06:49] <Ubotu> zwenx: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:49] <Shockman> vontux: i could if i knew how
[06:49] <tonyyarusso> perds: That will be just a small file that tells another program how to get the rest - we'll get to that in a moment
[06:49] <zwenx> Oh
[06:49] <zwenx> ok lol
[06:49] <zwenx> um ok, first off
[06:49] <Combatjuan> jesson: (Where "<EXENAME>" is what you want to call it and "something.cpp" is the name of the source file.
[06:49] <Shockman> vontux: im using live cd right now
[06:50] <zwenx> my sound card isn't working
[06:50] <tigran> in network the computers dont show but if i access it by smb://ip it does, how can i fix this?
[06:50] <jesson> where do the output file go?
[06:50] <CMA> yes, jesson read the man page plase, install doc off gcc and read the manual, or surf the web google is you friend and it is more extensive
[06:50] <perds> Its at 3% now tony
[06:50] <CMA> s/off/of/
[06:50] <zwenx> my sound card is a Sigmatel Stac9200 HDA ATI
[06:50] <zwenx> and it recofnizes it
[06:50] <Combatjuan> CMA: Is it just me or did you suddenly learn to speak English really well?
[06:50] <zwenx> and i can edit the volume
[06:50] <zwenx> but nothing plays
[06:50] <tigran> jesson: just install code::blocks, its an IDE, a lot easier
[06:50] <vontux> Shockman: pop the ubuntu cd in boot with it...and then mount your hd, and then mkdir /disk name/tmp
[06:50] <ubrnub> is there any way to run md5sum on a livecd?
[06:50] <omturyx_h> tigran, first check if the ip address is pinging. . $ping <IPADD>
[06:50] <CMA> nothing
[06:50] <jmak642> so is there any cad program i can get?
[06:50] <zwenx> anyone? =/
[06:50] <jesson> wat command shud i type to install code block?
[06:51] <perds> btw tony... wud you like me to do the second command you suggested?
[06:51] <CMA> Combatjuan, you are creazy
[06:51] <vontux> Shockman: do you know how to mount?
[06:51] <zwenx> I guess no one will help me ='[
[06:51] <Shockman> can i copy the /tmp/ from the livecd to ubuntu instalation directly_
[06:51] <tonyyarusso> perds: what kind of internet connection do you have btw?
[06:51] <tigran> omturyx_h: it does, i can access it by smb://ip, but the computer doesnt show in Network
[06:51] <zwenx> I hate my life
[06:51] <zwenx> xD
[06:51] <tonyyarusso> perds: as soon as it's done, yes
[06:51] <perds> cable tony
[06:51] <vontux> Shockman: you should be able to, but you need to have the hd mounted
[06:52] <vontux> Shockman: so do you know how to mount?
[06:52] <Shockman> vontux: its already mounted,but i dont previleges to write
[06:52] <tonyyarusso> perds: and you're only at 3% downloading a .torrent file?
[06:52] <jmak642> anyone tried qcad?
[06:52] <vontux> hmmm
[06:52] <tigran> xwenx: did you install the codecs?
[06:52] <perds> its 698MB tony
[06:52] <zwenx> what codecs?
[06:52] <Shockman> doesnt the livecd mount it automaticly?
[06:52] <overclucker> Shockman, where is it mounted?
[06:52] <vontux> Shockman: even using the sudo command?
[06:52] <zwenx> tigran: what codecs
[06:52] <tigran> zwenx:gstream
[06:52] <perds> right now its at 64MB
[06:52] <Shockman> it says disk
[06:52] <tonyyarusso> perds: Ah, you must have either already started getting the torrent, or stripped the .torrent from the filename.  That's fine.
[06:52] <zwenx> hmm would an.. apt-get install gstream
[06:52] <zwenx> do?
[06:52] <overclucker> Shockman, /media/disk?
[06:52] <omturyx_h> which program to run to see a list of packages available?
[06:52] <Combatjuan> zwenx: Try playing a simple .wav file to check and see if it is a codec issue.
[06:53] <Shockman> i see disk in the desktop
[06:53] <zwenx> it doesn't work
[06:53] <overclucker> ok
[06:53] <nickrud> zwenx: on the snd hda, you need to create a file,   /etc/modprobe.d/snd_hda_intel ,    and add the single line to it:   options snd_hda_intel model=3stack
[06:53] <vontux> Shockman: unmount it, and remount it and do the copying from the command line
[06:53] <gogeta> ??
[06:53] <gogeta> whats shockman doin\
[06:53] <zwenx> ok hold on
[06:53] <tigran> zwenx: go to add/remove and search gstream and install the codecs then try
[06:53] <Shockman> vontux: i dont know how to do it
[06:53] <overclucker> Shockman, from console do sudo chmod -R 0777 /media/disk
[06:54] <zwenx> ok hold on
[06:54] <gogeta> zewnx ubuntu will automaticly install any missing codecs
[06:54] <Shockman> executing
[06:54] <nickrud> zwenx: or, another model, see http://alsa.opensrc.org/Hda to identify
[06:54] <zwenx> i have gstream
[06:54] <Shockman> taking forever
[06:55] <zwenx> didn't work
[06:55] <vontux> Shockman: open the command line and type "df" and then send me the results that have "/dev" in front of them
[06:55] <davidthedrake> gogeta, zwenx is having less trouble with codecs and more trouble with just getting any sound to play.
[06:55] <Shockman> vontux: hold on,im unmounting
[06:55] <Shockman> done
[06:55] <Shockman> unmounted
[06:55] <Shockman> now what_
[06:55] <Shockman> ?
[06:55] <overclucker> Shockman, from console do sudo chmod -R 0777 /media/disk
[06:55] <vontux> Shockman: open the command line and type "df" and then send me the results that have "/dev" in front of them
[06:55] <overclucker> when mounted
[06:56] <vontux> overclucker: yeah that makes more sense :) clearer directions
[06:56] <overclucker> df | grep /dev
[06:56] <Shockman> its unmounted
[06:56] <nickrud> zwenx: the problem is, you have to reboot to test each module
[06:56] <zwenx> nothing is working
[06:56] <zwenx> yes
[06:56] <zwenx> i have the codecs
[06:56] <zwenx> it recognizes my device
[06:56] <zwenx> but sound will not play
[06:56] <zwenx> i'v been in alsa-mixer
[06:56] <zwenx> turned up all of the bars
[06:56] <zwenx> unmuted them all
[06:56] <tonyyarusso> !enter | zwenx
[06:56] <Ubotu> zwenx: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:56] <zwenx> still nothing
[06:56] <Shockman> df
[06:56] <zwenx> cat /proc/asound/modules
[06:56] <zwenx> 0 snd_hda_intel
[06:57] <tigran> omturyx_h: any ideas?
[06:57] <gogeta> zeenx what you tyring to play
[06:57] <nickrud> you need to create a file,   /etc/modprobe.d/snd_hda_intel ,    and add the single line to it:   options snd_hda_intel model=3stack or another model, see http://alsa.opensrc.org/Hda to identify
[06:57] <vontux> Shockman: type: df in the terminal, a program under application > accessories called "terminal"
[06:57] <gogeta> mp3?
[06:57] <zwenx> nick
[06:57] <zwenx> i did that
[06:57] <omturyx_h> tigran, sorry .. no. I am not a windows n/w guy.

[06:58] <imbecile> ok guys, I know nobody wants me to use trevino repo but how do I find key? im going to temporarily use it to install AWN
[06:58] <faileas> eh
[06:58] <nickrud> zwenx: you have to reboot to test, and you have to identify your module
[06:58] <Evanlec> hey so lets say somehow i installed ubuntu onto my external USB Drive that had all my data on it. any reasonable software available to recover my ntfs data?
[06:58] <zwenx> hold on nick
[06:58] <zwenx> so what do i do
[06:58] <zwenx> i made that file
[06:58] <riotkittie> if nobody wants you to use the repo, chances are they have good reason for it, and as such, its unlikely they'll give you a key for it
[06:58] <faileas> Evanlec: testdisk could probably recover some of it
[06:58] <zwenx> do i need anything else?
[06:58] <vontux> Shockman: ok, as expected there since you unmounted, lets see if /dev/sda1 is your hd, type: "blkid /dev/sda1"
[06:58] <faileas> as long as it wasn't overwritten
[06:58] <faileas> erm
[06:58] <Evanlec> faileas, alright, is that freeware?
[06:58] <nickrud> zwenx: no. If you have the right model chosen
[06:58] <imbecile> thats pretty lame
[06:58] <faileas> Evanlec: testdisk ;p
[06:59] <faileas> yup, open source, and in the ubuntu livecd i think
[06:59] <riotkittie> what's lame? not giving you the key?
[06:59] <Evanlec> k
[06:59] <tigran> omturyx_h: k i guess i can live with smb//ip ..w/e
[06:59] <tigran> omturyx_h: thanks anyways
[06:59] <Shockman> vontux
[06:59] <Shockman> overclucker
[06:59] <faileas> it may not be 100%, naturally anything overwritten may be gone
[06:59] <overclucker> hmm
[06:59] <overclucker> ?
[06:59] <vontux> Shockman: yes
[06:59] <Shockman> i unmounted
[06:59] <gogeta> you can get the key easly its called google
[07:00] <Evanlec> faileas, cuz it seems like data recovery software ive used in windows dont even wanna touch the ext3 partition, only wanna do "raw" data recovery
[07:00] <Shockman> and pasted df
[07:00] <imbecile> riotkittie:  yeah pretty much. I KNOW awn works on it.. i tried installing from getdeb and that one is messed up
[07:00] <gogeta> inporting keys is easy
[07:00] <zwenx> so i just must restart?
[07:00] <faileas> Evanlec: wierd. testdisk works on windows for ext3
[07:00] <imbecile> gogeta:  I just need to find the dang thing
[07:00] <gogeta> but if none whats to tell thers a good reasion
[07:00] <overclucker> vontux suggested [aste us "blkid /dev/sda1"
[07:00] <overclucker> paste*
[07:00] <omturyx_h> Try rtools from www.r-tt.com for data recovery....
[07:01] <faileas> you won't be able to read the disk, but it restores it anyway
[07:01] <vontux> Shockman: ok now do what I said so I can see if you have /dev/sda1 as your hd so I can tell you how to remount your hard drive, then you can follow overclucker's instructions
[07:01] <Evanlec> faileas, oh...so since my data on the drive was...well mp3's and stuff, but a lot of windows files, would it be better to run this in windows?
[07:01] <zwenx> hey nick you there?
[07:01] <faileas> Evanlec: TBH dosen't matter
[07:01] <davidthedrake> imbecile, http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org/
[07:01] <nickrud> zwenx: to free up the used module, and load the new. Did you go to that page and figure out your model?
[07:01] <davidthedrake> imbecile, Looks like it might help
[07:01] <Shockman> i did "blkid /dev/sda1"
[07:01] <zwenx> WARNING: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base line 39: ignoring bad line starting with 'options'
[07:01] <Evanlec> k
[07:01] <omturyx_h> faileas, the best one I have seen yet is rtools (www.r-tt.com)
[07:02] <Dark_Rain> morning guys
[07:02] <Evanlec> omturyx, but that isnt free is it?
[07:02] <gogeta> zwebx check your script
[07:02] <Shockman> done blkid /dev/sda1
[07:02] <gogeta> thats script error
[07:02] <vontux> Shockman: were there any results if so put them in here
[07:02] <imbecile> davidthedrake:  DOH! right on the front page.. thx alot
[07:02] <Shockman> no results
[07:02] <zwenx> no i didn't
[07:02] <davidthedrake> imbecile, No prob. I use 'em for my Compiz so yea ;)
[07:02] <zwenx> what must i do?
[07:02] <overclucker> Shockman, what name do you want sda1 mounted as, instead of 'disk'?
[07:02] <omturyx_h> I think so...
[07:03] <davidthedrake> imbecile, Y hablo espanol tambien.
[07:03] <vontux> Shockman: ok try "blkid /dev/sdb1
[07:03] <imbecile> davidthedrake:  no
[07:03] <Shockman> vontux: the drive appears to be mounted
[07:03] <zwenx> nick i'm sorry for sounding like such a noob
[07:03] <nickrud> zwenx: argh, typos, sorry snd-hda-intel
[07:03] <zwenx> please just give me a step by step, that would help
[07:03] <davidthedrake> imbecile, And there are a lot of spanish sites that list Trev as a repo
[07:03] <vontux> Shockman: ok then but didn't you say you unmounted it?
[07:03] <Shockman> i did
[07:03] <overclucker> Shockman, or to list all disks you can do fdisk -l
[07:04] <Shockman> but its there now
[07:04] <imbecile> ahhhh
[07:04] <zwenx> what was the page again? nickrud
[07:04] <vontux> Shockman: if you unmounted it then it is not mounted
[07:04] <Combatjuan> Goodnight everyone.  Happy linuxing.
[07:04] <Shockman>  fdisk -l showed no results
[07:04] <nickrud> zwenx: replace snd_hda_intel with snd-hda-intel , got kernel reporting and module naming mixed up http://alsa.opensrc.org/Hda
[07:04] <Shockman> but i can browse the disk
[07:04] <overclucker> Shockman, how about sudo fdisk -l ?

[07:12] <astro76> makaveli, it's a file so you need to open it with something, try gedit /var/log/syslog
[07:12] <gogeta> perds firefox should update itsself
[07:12] <overclucker> makaveli,  /var/log/syslog isn't a command. . .
[07:12] <makaveli> oh gotcha
[07:12] <zwenx> perds: apt-get update followed by apt-get upgrade
[07:13] <overclucker> cat is though
[07:13] <Parkin_m9999999> could someone help me with getting my MSI K9AGM2-FIH mobo (With ATI oboard gfx) to display native HDTV 1366x768 resolution??
[07:13] <Shockman> overclucker: what now?
[07:13] <tonyyarusso> perds: as described on the wiki
[07:13] <vontux> hello, how would I create password protected zip files with a gui app? is there such an application for ubuntu?
[07:13] <gogeta> parkin i told you
[07:13] <perds> gogeta.. It didn't update.. because... I have the old version of ubuntu
[07:13] <nickrud> zwenx: not a command, but an instruction to the user. look at the example. See where it says, model=6stack-digout? you got some kind of stack. Find the right model, modify the file, and get sound :) You have to look at your machine, and slow down.
[07:13] <overclucker> Shockman, now do sudo chmod -R 0777 /media/sda3
[07:13] <Parkin_m9999999> gogeta, i sent you private message
[07:13] <Parkin_m9999999> no response
[07:13] <Parkin_m9999999> (i do not know how to do this)
[07:13] <gogeta> didnt get it
[07:14] <zwenx> nickrud: i am still unsure of where to start =/
[07:14] <erik__> Question.. I can't see anything but my "home" folder. How do i see the other stuff?
[07:14] <TheZanke> http://yro.slashdot.org/yro/07/09/12/0011209.shtml
[07:14] <nickrud> zwenx: at the beginning. Go to the page, find your model. Modify the file in /etc/modprobe.d to match. Several examples are on that page. Reboot to test.
[07:15] <gogeta> parkin what ati card is it
[07:15] <zwenx> nickrud: how do i know which model i am?
[07:15] <Shockman> overclucker: ok
[07:15] <Shockman> overclucker: ready
[07:16] <Parkin_m9999999> pm'd
[07:16] <nickrud> zwenx: look at the page, look at your machine, which describes your machine? That's why I can't take you any further, I can't see your machine
[07:16] <overclucker> now, add the line '/dev/sda3 /media/sda3 ext3 defaults 0 0' to /etc/fstab
[07:16] <zwenx> nickrud: all i see is     *  3stack 3-jack in back and a headphone out
[07:16] <zwenx>     * 3stack-digout 3-jack in back, a HP out and a SPDIF out
[07:16] <zwenx>     * 5stack 5-jack in back, 2-jack in front
[07:16] <zwenx>     * 5stack-digout 5-jack in back, 2-jack in front, a SPDIF out
[07:16] <zwenx>     * 6stack 6-jack in back, 2-jack in front
[07:16] <zwenx>     * 6stack-digout 6-jack with a SPDIF out
[07:16] <zwenx>     * w810 3-jack
[07:16] <zwenx>     * z71v 3-jack (HP shared SPDIF)
[07:16] <zwenx>     * asus 3-jack
[07:16] <zwenx>     * uniwill 3-jack
[07:16] <gogeta> parkin i dont think its working
[07:16] <zwenx>     * F1734 2-jack
[07:16] <astro76> !paste | zwenx
[07:16] <Ubotu> zwenx: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)

[07:17] <gogeta> what ati is it
[07:17] <Parkin_m9999999> gogeta:its the onboard gfx for MSI K9AGM2-FIH
[07:17] <zwenx> nickrud: all i see are a whole bunch of .. 3dstab and stuff
[07:17] <gogeta> you can type lspci to see if you dont knoe
[07:17] <Parkin_m9999999>  http://msicomputer.co.uk/index.php?func=prodfaq&prod_no=1165&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=&cat3_no=#menu
[07:17] <gogeta> yea but what model
[07:17] <Parkin_m9999999> aah
[07:17] <Parkin_m9999999> erm not sure
[07:17] <zwenx> nickrud: i know your still there and i'm grateful for your help ^^
[07:18] <Shockman> ok,whats next
[07:18] <Parkin_m9999999> type lspci?
[07:18] <gogeta> well then do lspci
[07:18] <zwenx> nickrud: but i feel like i'm getting no where
[07:18] <Parkin_m9999999> terminal?
[07:18] <Shockman> /dev/sda3 /media/sda3 ext3 defaults 0 0' to /etc/fstab
[07:18] <overclucker> now, see if you can move files to sda3
[07:18] <gogeta> you should see something like this
[07:18] <gogeta> 00:09.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200]  (Secondary) (rev 01)
[07:18] <trojan_co> trojan_co gatel
[07:18] <nickrud> zwenx: it describes what's on the machine. What's on your machine (I sound like a credit card commercial)
[07:18] <gogeta> yea
[07:18] <overclucker> Shockman, hopefully minus the single quote
[07:19] <zwenx> nickrud: sorry but.. what describes what's on my machine?
[07:19] <zwenx> nickrud: i sound like an idiot -.-
[07:19] <riotkittie> cigarette ashes are on my machine :o
[07:19] <Shockman> i copied exactly like this /dev/sda3 /media/sda3 ext3 defaults 0 0' to /etc/fstab
[07:19] <nickrud> zwenx: um, it says,  3-jack in back, a HP out and a SPDIF out <-- that's a description of a machine
[07:19] <Parkin_m9999999> 01:05.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device 7919
[07:20] <gogeta> thats the sound card
[07:20] <overclucker> Shockman, remove the single quote from end
[07:20] <Parkin_m9999999> LOL
[07:20] <gogeta> looks for display
[07:20] <Shockman> overclucker: it works
[07:20] <Parkin_m9999999> 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device 791e
[07:20] <Shockman> but
[07:20] <vontux> hello, how would I create password protected zip files with a gui app? is there such an application for ubuntu?
[07:20] <Parkin_m9999999> sry i cpy paste wrong line ;)
[07:20] <gogeta> it doesent knoe
[07:20] <gogeta> humm
[07:20] <Shockman> some files i cant move but the have a lock
[07:20] <theone> hey anyone know how to get dual monitor support up and running?
[07:20] <gogeta> knoe what pc it is
[07:20] <Shockman> *they
[07:20] <gogeta> can chick what it comes with
[07:20] <zwenx> nickrud: sorry about that i'm back
[07:20] <gogeta> check
[07:20] <overclucker> Shockman, where are the files, sda3?
[07:21] <Parkin_m9999999> sorry i dont understand gogeta
[07:21] <_phil_> hej.
[07:21] <Krimpet> hmm, for some reason half the time if i switch over to a virtual terminal from X, then switch back, X crashes -- is there any particular reason this would be happening?
[07:21] <gogeta> what model pc it is
[07:21] <Parkin_m9999999> do you mean what model motherboard?
[07:21] <gogeta> no pc model
[07:21] <Parkin_m9999999> i built pc myself...
[07:21] <gogeta> like dell xps 1000
[07:21] <gogeta> oh
[07:21] <nickrud> zwenx: there's not much more I can do, other than suggest you put a bunch of pictures on the web somewhere :)
[07:21] <Ants> Shockman: are you trying to mount a disk?
[07:21] <gogeta> well what moterbord works
[07:21] <gogeta> if you knoe
[07:21] <Shockman> copying livecd /tmp/ to sda3 /tmp/
[07:21] <Parkin_m9999999> yeah i know
[07:21] <Parkin_m9999999> sec
[07:21] <Shockman> so far so good
[07:22] <Parkin_m9999999> this one:
[07:22] <zwenx> nickrud: please explain in laymans terms what i need to do, for example, do i need to look at how many ports i have, or type in something? or what?
[07:22] <Parkin_m9999999> http://msicomputer.co.uk/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1165&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=&cat3_no=
[07:22] <overclucker> Shockman, is sda3 have linux on it?
[07:22] <Shockman> yea
[07:22] <nickrud> zwenx: it describes the ports you have. If you don't know what an spif port looks like, google for a picture
[07:22] <nickrud> *spdif
[07:22] <Shockman> lets hope this works
[07:22] <overclucker> heh
[07:23] <Shockman> otherwise i have to install from fresh
[07:23] <gogeta> odd it doesent say what video controler it has
[07:23] <Parkin_m9999999> yea :/
[07:23] <zwenx> nickrud: so basically i have to do "modprobe snd_hda_intel model = something"
[07:23] <Parkin_m9999999> this is why i am posting lol
[07:23] <davidthedrake> nickrud, is there anything advantageous to using the spdif port to the regular headphone/speaker jack? I have both and was wondering if you might know.
[07:23] <overclucker> Shockman, are you on the distro you are copying?
[07:24] <theone> spdif is better quality
[07:24] <Shockman> yea
[07:24] <nickrud> zwenx: if you don't have the module running yet, sure that will work. If the module's loaded and something's trying to use it, rmmod -f might take it out
[07:24] <Shockman> is that ok?
[07:24] <Parkin_m9999999> gogeta: any ideas?
[07:24] <overclucker> Shockman, you might get stuck on kcore
[07:24] <gogeta> hyea
[07:24] <gogeta> found it
[07:24] <gogeta> its a readion x serise
[07:24] <nickrud> davidthedrake: spdif is better quality
[07:24] <Shockman> how do i get around that?
[07:25] <overclucker> Shockman, boot to live cd then copy
[07:25] <zwenx> nickrud: ok i have SPDIF it seems, what do i do now?
[07:25] <davidthedrake> nickrud, *shrug* Fair 'nuf.
[07:25] <limejuic1> hmm:(
[07:25] <gogeta> x1250
[07:25] <Shockman> overclucker: im on live cd
[07:25] <nickrud> zwenx: experiment
[07:25] <vontux> hello, how would I create password protected zip files with a gui app? is there such an application for ubuntu?
[07:25] <overclucker> oh hmm
[07:25] <Shockman> thats how i got here
[07:25] <zwenx> nickrud: what are the model names?
[07:25] <Shockman> :)
[07:25] <zwenx> nickrud: for SPDIF
[07:25] <gogeta> pretty new card
[07:26] <nickrud> zwenx: the page.
[07:26] <Parkin_m9999999> any way to get around this problem?
[07:26] <Parkin_m9999999> it would be really nice to have the real resolution for my screen
[07:26] <gogeta> i dont think it can display hd
[07:26] <Shockman> overclucker: i copied /tmp/ from livecd to replace what i erased in /tmp/
[07:26] <gogeta> under linux
[07:26] <davidthedrake> I'd like to say for the record: having Ubuntu on your laptop rules. That is all.
[07:26] <gogeta> lemmie look more
[07:26] <zwenx> nickrud: one last thing, what is a 5-jack and a 2-jack?
[07:26] <overclucker> lol
[07:26] <nickrud> zwenx: ah, now that's why I suggest experimentation
[07:26] <overclucker> Shockman, howd you erase tmp?
[07:26] <Parkin_m9999999> it has HDMI output, but i would settle for VGA output (as long as at native res)
[07:26] <jmak642> davidthedrake: i know, but what sucks is i gave my laptop to my brother so now i only have my desktop
[07:26] <Shockman> manually
[07:27] <overclucker> heh
[07:27] <Shockman> i was doing spring cleaning
[07:27] <zwenx> nickrud: ok how should i exprement? try all the different models? that have SPDIF?
[07:27] <Shockman> for space
[07:27] <overclucker> lol
[07:27] <nickrud> zwenx: sure
[07:27] <gogeta> parkin you can install atis drivers
[07:27] <davidthedrake> jmak642, Oooo... that sucks. Get two monitors so you can pwn him. Ubuntu + Compiz + Monitor*2 = pwn.
[07:27] <Shockman> guess i overdid it
[07:27] <gogeta> but you whont be able to use compiz
[07:27] <Parkin_m9999999> what is compiz?
[07:27] <gogeta> 3d desktop
[07:27] <zwenx> nickrud: i'll get back to you hold on a sec
[07:27] <Shockman> gogeta: me
[07:27] <overclucker> Shockman, did you look in .Trash?
[07:27] <Shockman> ?
[07:27] <jmak642> davidthedrake: i run at 1920x1200, no reason for dual display
[07:27] <Parkin_m9999999> ok that is no problem
[07:27] <Ants> compiz begat beryl
[07:27] <Parkin_m9999999> and how do i install atis driver?
[07:28] <Evanlec> compiz works on two monitors only with nvidia cards :(
[07:28] <Shockman> let me see
[07:28] <_phil_> i have kernel 2.6.22-11-generic installed and restricted-modules to the kernel. but unfortunately my wlan-interface will not be recognized from iwlist. what am i missing? it works with kernel 2.6.20-16.
[07:28] <gogeta> sudo apt-get update  sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic restricted-manager
[07:28] <Parkin_m9999999> (did you find a link about it - maybe you could post it also?)
[07:28] <davidthedrake> jmak642, I used to think the same thing. I love my CRT ub3r resolution. However, having two discreet desktops to work on is fucking priceless.
[07:28] <jmak642> davidthedrake: though i trying to strongarm my dell account exec into giving me another one of these sweet 24 inchers and a dual mount
[07:28] <gogeta> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[07:28] <Shockman> where is the trash folder?
[07:28] <gogeta> then you should just check fglx
[07:28] <NT> how can u list the different subchannels here
[07:28] <Evanlec> _phil_, can i ask why you upgraded your kernel ?
[07:28] <astro76> Shockman, what are you trying to do? you don't need anything in /tmp, it can all be safely deleted
[07:28] <Parkin_m9999999> ok great, one sec :)
[07:28] <_phil_> gogeta: is up to date.
[07:28] <gogeta> it should work
[07:28] <davidthedrake> jmak642, I totally feel you though :)
[07:29] <zwenx> nickrud: i keep getting this error WARNING: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base line 39: ignoring bad line starting with 'options'
[07:29] <_phil_> Evanlec: just because the 2.6.20-16 has a problem with overheating.
[07:29] <Shockman> astro76: i deleted it manually while in the session
[07:29] <davidthedrake> jmak642, You can get 1400x900 flat panels for $200 or less now.
[07:29] <Shockman> and i now i cant login
[07:29] <gogeta> phil
[07:29] <nickrud> zwenx: you have a typo. I've given you some good examples. You're gonna have to do some work on your own
[07:29] <Evanlec> _phil_, overheating? you dont say...what hardware does this effect?
[07:29] <gogeta> overheating
[07:30] <gogeta> disable acpi in your boot loader
[07:30] <gogeta> i had that issue ebfor to
[07:30] <jmak642> davidthedrake: yeah but now they are making a 27 and a 30, the 30 is bigger than my desk
[07:30] <davidthedrake> jmak642, I mean, don't get me wrong, I'd love one that big. But 19" for 200 bux or less. Let's be real. :)
[07:30] <nimrodicus23> what kind of wireless tools does the ubuntu liveCD come with?
[07:30] <astro76> Shockman, oh you deleted the actual directory, just need go to where it's mounted under your livecd, and mkdir tmp
[07:30] <gogeta> acpi=off
[07:30] <perds> tonyyarusso..... Its done downloading the iso file
[07:30] <_phil_> Evanlec: my notebook gets really hot using 2.6.20-16 and it gets really loud.
[07:30] <gogeta> and if some devices whont power up
[07:30] <_phil_> gogeta: i need acpi.
[07:30] <gogeta> acpi=off apm=off
[07:30] <overclucker> nimrodicus23, wireless-tools
[07:30] <perds> I did not understand why it has to have 3 ETA
[07:30] <nimrodicus23> sweet
[07:30] <Shockman> astro76: i tried that before
[07:30] <nickrud> Shockman: and sudo chmod 1777 /tmp
[07:30] <Shockman> didnt work
[07:31] <gogeta> well better then melting your laptop
[07:31] <jmak642> davidthedrake: you may be right, where are you gettin these 19's?
[07:31] <tonyyarusso> perds: 3 what?
[07:31] <davidthedrake> jmak642, You seen the new Dell ub3r flat-screens that are completely clear in design but offer ridiculous resolutions?
[07:31] <Parkin_m9999999> *just installing (thanks so much for helping btw gogeta)
[07:31] <gogeta> let the bios handel the power managment
[07:31] <davidthedrake> jmak642, Newegg has 'em
[07:31] <astro76> Shockman, what did you try? probably need sudo mkdir
[07:31] <mikubuntu> is there any fix to music files 'skipping' when i try to multitask on my dell lat 600?
[07:31] <Evanlec> gogeta, do you think thats a good idea in general with feisty?
[07:31] <davidthedrake> jmak642, And Bestbuy had 'em for 169 for Clearance at some stores.
[07:31] <gogeta> parkin you will probly need to restart it for it to take effect
[07:31] <perds> at 73%.... it has an ETA 10:32am
[07:31] <jmak642> davidthedrake: nah i havent seen these dells either
[07:31] <gogeta> then you should be able to get the high rez
[07:31] <Parkin_m9999999> ok
[07:31] <davidthedrake> jmak642, They're not in mass production that I know of, but they're hot as hell.
[07:32] <perds> at 100% its has ETA of 00:00
[07:32] <jmak642> davidthedrake: dell is on my hatemail list these days
[07:32] <Shockman> astro76: i created the dir /tmp/ but it still complains about something
[07:32] <davidthedrake> jmak642, Why so?
[07:32] <Shockman> related to /tmp/
[07:32] <jmak642> davidthedrake: well, 6 weeks ago we placed an order for 12 laptops
[07:32] <tonyyarusso> perds: erm, that's how many minutes:seconds are left, not time of day
[07:32] <Shockman> whats this for?  sudo chmod 1777 /tmp
[07:32] <jmak642> davidthedrake: and as of this afternoon they had not shipped
[07:32] <davidthedrake> jmak642, Ubuntu equipped ones?
[07:32] <perds> ohh ok
[07:32] <nickrud> Shockman: the permissions needed by tmp
[07:32] <astro76> Shockman, yeah do that, it might be the problem
[07:32] <nimrodicus23> how can I discover wireless networks with the liveCD?
[07:32] <Parkin_m9999999> brb :)
[07:32] <jmak642> davidthedrake: nah, winblows ones from their medium business division
[07:32] <nimrodicus23> I can't seem to get wireless-tools to work
[07:33] <_phil_> gogeta Evanlec what is wrong about using 2.6.22-11?
[07:33] <tonyyarusso> perds: Now just insert a blank CD-R into your drive, right-click the ISO file in Gnome, and select "burn to disk"
[07:33] <jmak642> nimrodicus23: what wireless card do you have?
[07:33] <macogw> jmak642: that's been happening a bit.  someone on the loco mailing list ordered over 2 months ago and gets a call every monday from a robot telling him it'll be another week.  he finally canceled the order
[07:33] <nimrodicus23> it's the one built into the M2N32 SLI Deluxe Wireless Edition
[07:33] <astro76> Shockman, /tmp needs to be SUID but owned by root, meaning a file created by a user in /tmp can be modified by that user but no one else
[07:33] <Evanlec> _phil_, nothing i guess but it seems like its causing you some issues
[07:33] <Shockman> hmm
[07:33] <jmak642> macogw: yeah i called lenovo today
[07:33] <nimrodicus23> And that's an Asus board
[07:33] <jmak642> has anyone had any experience with lenovo
[07:33] <astro76> Shockman, so you might need to chown root:root your tmp also
[07:33] <nimrodicus23> that it came with
[07:34] <Evanlec> _phil_, any other advantages in that kernel release besides the overheating thing?
[07:34] <davidthedrake> jmak642, Ahh... fair 'nuff. That sucks. Sorry to hear that. A friend of mine ordered one of the Ubuntu ones at 10am the moment they went on sale. He's like it a lot. But, I bought a 700 dollar HP from Best Buy that runs it better
[07:34] <perds> ok tony
[07:34] <macogw> jmak642: nice keyboards on their laptops
[07:34] <_phil_> Evanlec: no.
[07:34] <nimrodicus23> Ubuntu recognizes it, and let's me enter in networks, but I don't know of any networks around me
[07:34] <Shockman> astro76: i dont know how to all that
[07:34] <riotkittie> ugh. dell. :|    i had the misfortune of stopping at their kiosk the other day.
[07:34] <nimrodicus23> I'm wondering if there's a tool that will show me networks that are nearby
[07:34] <tonyyarusso> !offtopic
[07:34] <Ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[07:34] <_phil_> Evanlec: but i do not want to have a notebook which is loud like hell and hot like hell. i cannot work with such thing.
[07:34] <jmak642> nimrodicus23: do you know if there are in fact any networks present?
[07:35] <Evanlec> _phil_, right, well makes sense i guess
[07:35] <davidthedrake> Sorry tonyyarusso
[07:35] <perds> tonyyarusso after burning this CD... this would be my startup disk right ?
[07:35] <gogeta> i hope thast driver doesne crash on the poor guy lol
[07:35] <nimrodicus23> jmak642, yes I do
[07:35] <nimrodicus23> I know there are several available
[07:36] <gwylly> Hi, I have 'deb file:/path /' in my sources.list, but getting errors like 'Failed to fetch file:/path//path/xxx.deb  File not found' when using apt. Any ideas?
[07:36] <_phil_> Evanlec: perhaps i should switch back to debian and configure the restricted modules wie module-assistant myself. that worked. just tried to give ubuntu a chance.
[07:36] <Shockman> how do i open sda3 in command line?
[07:36] <overclucker> Shockman, cd /media/sda3
[07:36] <Shockman> so that i can do this sudo chmod 1777 /tmp
[07:36] <jmak642> nimrodicus23: it will show anything it can reasonably connect to on the network manager from what i have seen, but i am sure there are some folks here that can show you a scanner.  i had a problem with the card i use where the machine seemed to recognize it but it couldnt see any networks.  i had to change the driver.  search on the ubunto forums after you figure out the exact model of the wifi chip
[07:36] <gogeta> shockman
[07:36] <gogeta> ?
[07:36] <jmak642> s/ubunto/ubuntu
[07:36] <nimrodicus23> I know for a fact the wifi card works
[07:36] <tonyyarusso> perds: yes
[07:37] <overclucker> Shockman, do sudo chmod 1777 /media/sda3/tmp
[07:37] <jmak642> how?
[07:37] <nimrodicus23> it gives me the option to switch over to it
[07:37] <nimrodicus23> and there's a bar that represents signal strength
[07:37] <Shockman> chmod: changing permissions of `/media/sda3/tmp': Operation not permitted
[07:37] <nimrodicus23> and it goes up and down throughout the day
[07:37] <_phil_> thanks for trying to help.
[07:37] <Stui> greetings all :D
[07:37] <Evanlec> _phil_, yea, im not sure, i havent recompiled any kernels since redhat 7 ;p
[07:37] <Shockman> sudo
[07:37] <perds> thanks tony..... youre such a big help
[07:37] <Shockman> i forget
[07:37] <overclucker> heh
[07:37] <_phil_> bye.
[07:37] <perds> I'll just wait for this cd to finish burning
[07:37] <jmak642> nimrodicus23: yah, i'm not sure i can help, i dont know enough about linux yet
[07:37] <tonyyarusso> perds: np
[07:38] <Shockman> done
[07:38] <Stui> I was hoping someone could help me out with an issue I'm having trying to start monodevelop
[07:38] <nimrodicus23> k, I just switched over to the wireless card, and it said, "This network requires security"
[07:38] <nimrodicus23> so I know it's able to see networks, but it won't let me choose which ones
[07:38] <Shockman> so,if everything is ok,this should work
[07:38] <jmak642> hmm
[07:38] <nickrud> gwylly: if you've set up the packages.gz already , it'd be 'deb file:/path ./
[07:39] <Shockman> overclucker: anything else?
[07:39] <fatcatmatt> custom computer here...how do i get the proper sound driver?
[07:39] <Shockman> astro76
[07:39] <overclucker> not sure
[07:39] <Shockman> ok,time to reset
[07:39] <astro76> Shockman, that should do it
[07:40] <jmak642> nimrodicus23: try an app called swscanner
[07:40] <Shockman> astro76: it was the permission to write in /tmp/ that needed to changed
[07:40] <Shockman> astro76: right?
[07:40] <nimrodicus23> kk
[07:40] <nimrodicus23> it should be on the liveCD shouldn't it?
[07:41] <astro76> Shockman, yes
[07:41] <Shockman> im new
[07:41] <Shockman> ok
[07:41] <Shockman> brb
[07:41] <Shockman> thanks everyone
[07:41] <jmak642> nimrodicus23: its in the repository, try to install it from the synaptic package manager under system>administration
[07:42] <davina> its time to give up those hacked copies of vista a stick with ubuntu http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9035478
[07:42] <gogeta> LOL
[07:42] <gwylly> nickrud: Just tried that, not working. Exact line is 'deb file:/media/sda5/packages ./'
[07:43] <nickrud> gwylly: go over this page, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Personal and check your setup
[07:43] <gwylly> nickrud: Ok, and thank you
[07:43] <gogeta> parkin is back
[07:43] <Parkin_m9999999> hi
[07:43] <gogeta> guess it worked
[07:43] <Parkin_m9999999> erm
[07:43] <Parkin_m9999999> well it doesnt let me have 1366
[07:43] <Parkin_m9999999> only 1280
[07:43] <Parkin_m9999999> :/
[07:44] <Parkin_m9999999> 1280*720
[07:44] <riaal> Know it is offtopic but what is fedoras version of ubuntus apt-get? (running it on my ps3)
[07:44] <gogeta> yea 720p isnt it
[07:44] <Parkin_m9999999> i just checked my xorg.conf file
[07:44] <Parkin_m9999999> and this is blank(?)
[07:44] <davina> riaal i think its yum
[07:44] <gogeta> you can add that rez if you whant
[07:44] <gogeta> but it might fail
[07:44] <jmak642> davidthedrake: whoa i almost just rammed a cigarette into my lcd!
[07:44] <perds> tonyyarusso: I can't find the ISO file that I've just downloaded? you mentioned another command after performing the wget -c http://releases.......what was that agaain?
[07:45] <Parkin_m9999999> my hdtv says: mode not supported for 1280*720
[07:45] <Parkin_m9999999> but native resolution of it is 1366*768
[07:45] <davidthedrake> jmak642, And why, good sir, would you try to accomplish a feat such as that?
[07:45] <nickrud> speaking of lcd screens, what's the best cleaning solution?
[07:45] <tonyyarusso> perds: do you still have the terminal up?
[07:45] <gogeta> odd hdtv
[07:45] <Parkin_m9999999> and also now my xorg.conf file is blank(this a problem?)
[07:45] <perds> yes
[07:45] <tonyyarusso> perds: what's the output of 'pwd' ?
[07:45] <jmak642> davidthedrake: well i was reading that page about the black screen of darkness and going for the ashtray
[07:45] <davidthedrake> Parkin_m9999999, Having a blank xorg.conf file is usually a very bad thing.
[07:46] <Parkin_m9999999> :/
[07:46] <gogeta> he enabled fglx
[07:46] <perds> /home/perds.... tony
[07:46] <gogeta> try closing it
[07:46] <tonyyarusso> perds: Okay, so go to Places > Home Folder, and you should see it
[07:46] <davidthedrake> jmak642, Ahaha... ha... ha... *wipes away the almost existent fake tear* black screen...
[07:46] <overclucker> Parkin_m9999999, make sure you are looking in the right dir. . .
[07:46] <Shockman> it worked!
[07:46] <davidthedrake> jmak642, ;)
[07:46] <Shockman> :D
[07:46] <overclucker> heh
[07:46] <gogeta> yea no config x would not have loaded
[07:46] <Parkin_m9999999> is xorg.conf a typical file that i can just copy paste back in
[07:46] <Parkin_m9999999> ?
[07:46] <gogeta> its defebntly there
[07:46] <Parkin_m9999999> /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[07:47] <Shockman> astro76: there was 1 complaint however
[07:47] <gogeta> lol
[07:47] <Parkin_m9999999> it opens... but it is blank
[07:47] <Parkin_m9999999> :/

[07:52] <gogeta> well the modes there
[07:52] <Parkin_m9999999> i had it working under windows before at this res
[07:52] <gogeta> just change it in prefrences
[07:52] <nickrud> copy it to a cd
[07:52] <davidthedrake> Wow. Cool to think there's 1000+ people in here at the wee hours of the mornin'
[07:52] <jmak642> when i go in gnome to system>quit, i dont have options for shutdown or restart, how do i get those back?
[07:52] <nickrud> davidthedrake: for you wee hours, maybe
[07:53] <kidbuntu> some help please. how can i change my splash screen. i downloaded chrome-theme.so.tar.gz from gnome look org
[07:53] <davidthedrake> nickrud, True. Where you at?
[07:53] <Parkin_m9999999> could it have something to do with refresh rate
[07:53] <Parkin_m9999999> or vsync?
[07:53] <nickrud> !usplash | kidbuntu
[07:53] <Ubotu> kidbuntu: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[07:53] <gogeta> humm
[07:53] <nickrud> davidthedrake: west coast usa
[07:53] <Parkin_m9999999> maybe i need to configure some extra stuff?
[07:53] <Shockman> what is this sudo: must be setuid root
[07:53] <gogeta> no if the modes there
[07:53] <gogeta> it should load it
[07:54] <davidthedrake> nickrud, Gotcha. I'm in Mountain. But I work in eye-tea for a living so I gotta be up and running by 10/11 in the am.
[07:54] <fatcatmatt> kidbuntu: search add/remove for splash screen.  i have it installed on mine.  after installed, it's under System > Prefs
[07:54] <nickrud> Shockman: what did you do to your permissions :)
[07:54] <Parkin_m9999999> this is the monitor --> http://www.play.com/Electronics/Electronics/4-/924634/Samsung-32-LE32R74BDX-XEU-Freeview-HD-Ready-Widescreen-IDTV-LCD-TV/Product.html
[07:54] <Parkin_m9999999> (just so u know im not making 1366*768 up :P )
[07:54] <Shockman> i cant do sudo -s
[07:54] <fatcatmatt> im working on a laptop that has nothing working...sound, wifi...just got the video fixed
[07:55] <Shockman> oh oh
[07:55] <davidthedrake> Parkin_m9999999, That's a pretty ridiculous resolution, I must say.
[07:55] <Parkin_m9999999> 1366*768 is quite a standard resolution for widescreen hdtvs
[07:55] <nickrud> Shockman: back in the live cd , sudo -i  ;  chmod u+s /path/to/mount/usr/bin/sudo
[07:55] <gogeta> iis the 1336 rez on a diffrent mode?
[07:55] <ticus_> hi
[07:55] <Shockman> nickrud: im no longer in the livecd
[07:55] <Parkin_m9999999> i have had it run 1366 under windows through vga
[07:55] <Parkin_m9999999> so i dont think so
[07:56] <Ants> omg. that's the rez for a 32' wide?????
[07:56] <gogeta> you can add it as your first mode on your display
[07:56] <nickrud> Shockman: you will be as soon as it boots back up; although you might be able to do this in recovery mode
[07:56] <fatcatmatt> ants...32'?!
[07:56] <davidthedrake> Parkin_m9999999, Ahhh..... fair 'nuff. I don't watch much T.V. Find that it rots the brain quicker than meth. And that's a terrible drug.
[07:56] <gogeta> linux should load it by defult then
[07:56] <Ants> sorry, 32"
[07:56] <Shockman> nickrud: im in the installed ubuntu
[07:56] <kidbuntu> nickrud: are the steps still the same with edgy?
[07:56] <Ants> hahah
[07:56] <fatcatmatt> lol ants
[07:56] <nickrud> Shockman: do you have a root password?
[07:56] <Shockman> yeas
[07:57] <Parkin_m9999999> yeah its 720p
[07:57] <nickrud> kidbuntu: I'm not sure, but I think so
[07:57] <fatcatmatt> ill search, ants
[07:57] <Parkin_m9999999> hmm, kinda at a loss now
[07:57] <AArchnix> Hiya... trying to update from clean install, it seems that ca.archive.ubuntu.com is down. Anyone have another?
[07:57] <nickrud> Shockman: then you can just go to root and do      chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo
[07:57] <Parkin_m9999999> got it in the conf file but not showing up under the drop down
[07:57] <Parkin_m9999999> gonna restart see if that wakes it up
[07:57] <Parkin_m9999999> brb
[07:57] <nickrud> Shockman: suid root means that whoever runs it, it runs with root permissions
[07:57] <gogeta> lol
[07:58] <fatcatmatt> ants: A built-in NTSC/ATSC tuner means you can watch both analog and digital programming at the widescreen (16:9) display panel's 1366 x 768 pixel (720p) native resolution, which is perfect for HDTV content.
[07:58] <fatcatmatt> ants: http://www2.shopping.com/xPO-Panasonic-TC-32LX70
[07:58] <Ants> fatcatmatt: wow. i did not know that.
[07:58] <Shockman> nickrud: i tried  gksudo chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo
[07:58] <stjepan> anyone knows what's the player on this screenshot? http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/6811/dirtyoq5.png
[07:58] <gogeta> hdtv = high def trash video
[07:58] <gogeta> lol
[07:58] <Shockman> still cant switch to root
[07:59] <Parkin_m9999999> *baffled*
[07:59] <AArchnix> Shockman: Why gksudo, that's for graphical programs only, no?
[07:59] <gogeta> look at display 0
[07:59] <gogeta> see what modes its using
[07:59] <AArchnix> i.e. gksudo gedit, but sudo chmod
[07:59] <Parkin_m9999999> how to look at display 0?
[07:59] <gogeta> in your xorg config
[07:59] <Shockman> because  chmod u+s /usr/bin/sudo
[07:59] <Shockman> didnt work
[07:59] <dxm_> what is this error in the inicialization of compiz fusion
[07:59] <dxm_> texture_from_pixmap support
[08:00] <nickrud> Shockman: sudo is sudo , you have to change the permissions of sudo and sudo can't do that right now
[08:00] <Shockman> hmm
[08:00] <dxm_> Fatal: Failed test: texture_from_pixmap support
[08:00] <Shockman> so,how do i it?
[08:00] <nickrud> Shockman: have a true root password, boot into recovery mode, or boot the live cd is the only ways
[08:00] <gogeta> you should see section screen
[08:00] <nemik> did they new libpam update in gutsy break anything for anyone?
[08:00] <gogeta> and the modes its using
[08:01] <AArchnix> nikrun: I though gksudo just called sudo, is that really a workaround? What about logging in as root and changing sudo, then reseting it to default. Just brainstorming.
[08:01] <nickrud> AArchnix: if he had a root password, it'd work.
[08:01] <jmak642> what is the release date for gutsy?
[08:01] <Shockman> nickrud: once in the livecd what do i do?
[08:01] <riotkittie> wee. i am either totally amazing or have messed what little success with my adapter i've had, up.  in a moment, i shall know. oooh, ahhh.
[08:01] <AArchnix> nikrud: sorry, you're too quick ;)
[08:01] <nickrud> AA you just came in late, and a sec, I have some links for mirrors
[08:02] <AArchnix> Cool... thanks.
[08:02] <dxm_> somebody can help me? what's is this error? Fatal: Failed test: texture_from_pixmap support
[08:02] <Parkin_m9999999_> now after the restart other resolutions arent showing.... (w t f lol)
[08:02] <Parkin_m9999999_> how to look at display 0?
[08:02] <nickrud> AArchnix: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors
[08:02] <nemik> did they new libpam update in gutsy break anything for anyone?
[08:02] <AArchnix> Many thanks nickrud.
[08:02] <kidbuntu> fatcatmatt: how i'm gonna install my downloaded splash screens
[08:02] <Shockman> brb
[08:02] <Naisenu> hrm i think i has broken nvidia drivers, results of "glxinfo | grep version" are here: http://attachr.com/9562
[08:02] <nickrud> Shockman: try booting into recovery first
[08:03] <riotkittie> apparently, i did neither.  :] 
[08:03] <dxm_> nickrud, help?
[08:03] <fatcatmatt> kidbuntu: did you search for that in the add/remove?
[08:03] <nickrud> dxm_: not a clue, without context. And honestly, probably not then. What are you running?
[08:03] <jetscreamer> Naisenu: did you ever apt-get install nvidia-glx or whatever?
[08:04] <kidbuntu> fatcatmatt: yes i did. and i just installed it.  i saw it right in system--->splash screens. after that theres nothing to choose from
[08:04] <dxm_> nickrud, compiz -- replace &
[08:04] <Naisenu> jetscreamer: Yes.  nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel-common are installed
[08:04] <nickrud> dxm_: ah, ask in #ubuntu-effects , #compiz-fusion they know that stuff well if they're there
[08:04] <dxm_> thanks
[08:05] <AnAnt> Hello, how do I setup an adhoc wireless network between 2 laptops running Ubuntu ?
[08:05] <gogeta> parken section screen
[08:05] <Ants> YOU'RE just an ant; i am many.
[08:05] <jetscreamer> try apt-get install --reinstall maybe, or rebuild the module.. not sure
[08:06] <gogeta> it should show what modes its set to display
[08:06] <parkin_m> (ahhhh)
[08:06] <AnAnt> Ants: good, so maybe you can answer my question then :)
[08:06] <nickrud> pin!
[08:06] <parkin_m> sry i keep getting dc
[08:06] <parkin_m> how to look at display 0?
[08:06] <fatcatmatt> kidbuntu: try drag and dropping your downloaded screen
[08:06] <gogeta> thats display 0
[08:07] <tarnto1> anyone here know why sound would be lost whilst logging in...same thing would happen even after a reboot...?
[08:07] <kidbuntu> fatcatmatt: i tried that.  it doesnt work
[08:07] <Ants> AnAnt: sorry, i know very little about wireless.
[08:07] <Naisenu> hrm it would help if Synaptic actually connected to anything
[08:07] <nickrud> DISPLAY=":0" ?
[08:07] <AnAnt> Ants: np
[08:07] <fatcatmatt> no install button?  lol kidbuntu

[08:12] <parkinMmm> gogeta all the higher resolutions have now disappeared from the select
[08:12] <faileas> tico1: use imap? ;) alternately i set them to delete only mails that are deleted on the client. works alright, even if its a small hack
[08:12] <parkinMmm> (drop down)
[08:12] <parkinMmm> any idea why this is caused?
[08:12] <you_bgt> ad

[08:13] <Naisenu> okay ... i think my system has issues ... i can't download packages from Synaptic
[08:13] <jetscreamer> fix it
[08:13] <jetscreamer> !sources
[08:13] <Ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[08:13] <parkinMmm> wb gogeta :p
[08:13] <johnww> tarnto1 are you able to play mp3s
[08:13] <Klonoa> For anybody running Compiz Fusion, has anyone else run into issues with it recognizing all the different work spaces?
[08:13] <tico1> faileas, well i have imap and pop the problem is when i check my email with outlook , outlook delete the copy of the server
[08:13] <parkinMmm> gogeta all the higher resolutions have now disappeared from the drop down menu (any idea why?)
[08:13] <gogeta> switch to a irc we can pm in
[08:13] <tarnto1> johnww: nothing not a sound
[08:13] <Naisenu> jetscreamer: No. I can find them. They just won't download.
[08:13] <faileas> tico1: you can set it not to
[08:13] <gogeta> maybe you made a error
[08:14] <nickrud> Naisenu: are you using the canadian repos, there's been a couple people here saying they're down
[08:14] <johnww> tarnto1 but you hear stuff for like 3 seconds when u logging in?
[08:14] <tico1> faileas, but i need use the same data base like sync... and check in ubuntu but have the same at the same time in ubuntu
[08:14] <Naisenu> ah yes they are the canadian ones
[08:14] <tarnto1> johnww: yes...but not the whole piece
[08:14] <faileas> hmm
[08:14] <vontux> my "password" option is not usable under the edit option of the "Archive Manager" is that a bug?
[08:14] <jetscreamer> use us?
[08:14] <jetscreamer> u.s.
[08:14] <nickrud> Naisenu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors
[08:15] <faileas> t too sure the
[08:15] <jetscreamer> make backup
[08:15] <tico1> faileas, sorry win xp and ubuntu
[08:15] <nickrud> vontux: don't know ;)
[08:15] <parkinMmm> can we move to another channel or something gogeta??
[08:15] <riotkittie> i think i'm finally within reach of my secured network. but it's 2am, and this is likely a sleep deprived delusion on my part
[08:15] <gogeta> i enabled my pm abiltys
[08:15] <vontux> nickrud: hmm...thx
[08:15] <faileas> tico1: not too sure how to still
[08:15] <gogeta> ill get your messnages now
[08:15] <parkinMmm> ok
[08:15] <nickrud> vontux: read those docs, you might have to create an archive first
[08:15] <johnww> tarnto1: your screwed it looks like linux has really shitted on you
[08:16] <parkinMmm> *sent you msg
[08:16] <astro76> vontux, not all archive types support passwords, if you make a .zip it will be enabled (of course zip password protection is not really secure)
[08:16] <gogeta> weard
[08:16] <gogeta> what you usin
[08:16] <johnww> tarnto1: delete linux, give up, and buy windows vista
[08:16] <nickrud> vontux: it is in the modify section, after all
[08:16] <tico1> faileas, thanks !
[08:16] <astro76> gogeta, you have to register your nick to PM on Freenode
[08:16] <astro76> !register
[08:16] <Ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[08:16] <vontux> astro76: so it won't allow me to create a password for say .tar.gz?
[08:16] <parkinMmm> i can read your pms
[08:16] <gogeta> my nick is registerd
[08:16] <faileas> tico1: hmm?
[08:16] <astro76> vontux, no
[08:16] <overclucker> johnww, what are you saying!?!
[08:16] <gogeta> been for years
[08:16] <LT1Caprice57L> hey there fellas, anyone know where ubuntu's default wallpapers would be stored?  and if that would also apply to linux mint
[08:17] <johnww> he has a nasty sound problem
[08:17] <dustin_> Broken package error...cant fix it...anyone help?
[08:17] <astro76> gogeta, you have to register to send
[08:17] <Shockman> back
[08:17] <vontux> nickrud: the instructions in the help say to open an archive and select "password" under edit, but "password" is not selectable
[08:17] <johnww> his sound plays for like 2 seconds then quits
[08:17] <riotkittie> if you want to sell vista, get a job at staples.
[08:17] <kidbuntu> can someone help me configure the splash screen in feisty
[08:17] <gogeta> parkin you probly need to register
[08:17] <tarnto1> johnww: i have had this problem quite often...done a few reinstalling ...still it's kept coming back!!!
[08:17] <nickrud> vontux: have you created an archive yet?
[08:17] <vontux> nickrud: I read the docs buddy :)
[08:17] <gogeta> astro i am registerd
[08:17] <nickrud> lol
[08:17] <vontux> nickrud: yep
[08:17] <parkinMmm> register where? ^^
[08:17] <astro76> gogeta, yeah but you're trying to talk to people
[08:17] <Shockman> nickrud: im in the livecd
[08:17] <tico1> faileas, ?
[08:17] <astro76> gogeta, they need to register
[08:17] <LT1Caprice57L> I have Linux Mint running on my sister's laptop, and there's a default wallpaper I particularly like that is not branded, but I can't find them for the life of me
[08:17] <gogeta> yea
[08:17] <nickrud> vontux: then I'm not sure, I just looked around
[08:17] <faileas> tico1: did something i say work? ;p
[08:17] <parkinMmm> i will register, tell me where :)
[08:17] <johnww> tarnto1 maybe it a bad sound driver?
[08:18] <LT1Caprice57L> and I figured since LM is just Ubuntu with preinstalled software maybe someone could help...
[08:18] <Shockman> what do i do now
[08:18] <dustin_> can anyone help with this "broken package" issue?
[08:18] <vontux> nickrud: ok well thx anyway
[08:18] <nickrud> Shockman: ok, is your root partition mounted read/write?
[08:18] <Shockman> nope
[08:18] <johnww> whats the name of your sound card do a $lspci
[08:18] <LuYu> does anybody here use wlan in ubuntu?
[08:18] <LT1Caprice57L> LuYu: affirmative
[08:18] <Shockman> sda3
[08:18] <Dark_Rain> LuYu,
[08:18] <davidthedrake> LuYu, Yup
[08:18] <LT1Caprice57L> on both this and the LM laptop
[08:18] <tarnto1> johnww: via8237
[08:18] <Dark_Rain> what is the problem with wlan
[08:18] <tico1> faileas: no really ... but thanks for your time ;)
[08:18] <Dark_Rain> ?
[08:19] <faileas> LuYu: with an older intel wifi card. yeah
[08:19] <LT1Caprice57L> depends on youur hardware
[08:19] <nickrud> Shockman: ok, sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
[08:19] <LuYu> it seems like the config for wireless is nearly all command line
[08:19] <LuYu> and i right?
[08:19] <hansteam> Is there a way to have set up a desktop for one workspace without affecting the others?
[08:19] <LT1Caprice57L> you on a laptop or desktop
[08:19] <faileas> nope
[08:19] <johnww> tarnto1: one moment sir
[08:19] <Shockman> nickrud: ok
[08:19] <gogeta> this is nicer
[08:19] <faileas> i set mine up using network manager
[08:19] <LT1Caprice57L> Mine worked out of the box on both computers...
[08:19] <LuYu> you mean gnomes network manager?
[08:19] <Shockman> nickrud: next
[08:19] <tarnto1> johnww: cheers
[08:19] <faileas> WEP or unencrypted. i think gutsy supports WPA
[08:20] <faileas> yup
[08:20] <LuYu> well, ive got usb nics, and neither of them work at all
[08:20] <davidthedrake> !question | LuYu
[08:20] <Ubotu> LuYu: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:20] <nickrud> Shockman: ok, cd /mnt/usr/bin
[08:20] <tico1> LuYu i used network manager in gnome ubuntu dapper, and it work perferct
[08:20] <LuYu> although the kernel modules are generally loaded correctly
[08:20] <gogeta> outch
[08:20] <johnww> tarnto1: please type "vi /etc/asound.conf"
[08:20] <Shockman> my sda3 is not showing
[08:21] <tico1> LuYu, i have a link with the how to, give a sec
[08:21] <vontux> nickrud: haha, I didn't notice the file extension, I thought I had .zip, but it was .tar.gz which doesn't currently support passwords....
[08:21] <LuYu> kewl
[08:21] <LuYu> thanks
[08:21] <astro76> vontux, never will ;)
[08:21] <nickrud> Shockman: we mounted it on /mnt so   cd /mnt/usr/bin
[08:21] <astro76> vontux, if you really need security, you should encrypt with gpg
[08:21] <Shockman> nickrud: my ubuntu disk aint here
[08:21] <gogeta> lol
[08:21] <parkin123134141> *screams*
[08:21] <LT1Caprice57L> no ideas where the default wallpapers are stored, anyone?
[08:21] <davidthedrake> .........
[08:22] <gogeta> parken when you register a nic you gotta use hat one
[08:22] <parkin123134141> gogeta do u have msn or something
[08:22] <gogeta> that
[08:22] <gogeta> LOL
[08:22] <tarnto1> johnww: done....
[08:22] <parkin123134141> :
[08:22] <parkin123134141> :p
[08:22] <astro76> parkin123134141, after you register you have to identify
[08:22] <nickrud> Shockman: did you get any error when you ran that mount command
[08:22] <vontux> astro76: nah, not real security, just some a minor block for people trying to access my files who I need to let use my computer :)
[08:22] <Shockman> nickrud: no error
[08:22] <johnww> tarnto1: please go to this website "http://blog.hulboj.org/pl/2006/02/via8237-sound-problem-linux.html"
[08:22] <parkin123134141> gogeta do u have a gaim account?
[08:22] <gogeta> heh
[08:22] <Naisenu> Okay. I have reinstalled nvidia-glx & nvidia-kernel-common and it's still having issues (http://attachr.com/9562)
[08:22] <parkin123134141> before i shoot myself
[08:22] <tico1> LuYu: use apt-get network-manager-gnome
[08:22] <gogeta> registering on irc
[08:22] <gogeta> easy
[08:22] <astro76> vontux, you should create a user for guests, and make your files unreadable by others
[08:23] <nickrud> Shockman: does ls /mnt   show  root  boot   usr   var  etc?
[08:23] <davidthedrake> vontux, chown the files to a user only you have access to ;)
[08:23] <tico1> LuYu: after install it disable all the conections except lo and then restart
[08:23] <Shockman> nickrud: wait
[08:23] <LuYu> ive got network manager
[08:23] <LuYu> and its running
[08:23] <Shockman> nickrud: i tried to mount again and mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda3 is already mounted on /mnt
[08:24] <tico1> LuYu: what  is the problem?
[08:24] <nickrud> Shockman: that's where it should be.    cd /mnt/usr/bin
[08:24] <LuYu> so, youre saying if i restart networkmanager, it will detect the nics
[08:24] <Shockman> nickrud: but i only in the console window
[08:24] <LuYu> well, the kernel modules arent assigning virtual addresses to the nics
[08:24] <nickrud> Shockman: thats fine, just type the command in the console
[08:24] <tarnto1> johnww: vi /etc/asound.conf...i should ignore this command now?
[08:24] <LuYu> one is a prism_2
[08:24] <LuYu> and the other is a zd1211b
[08:24] <gogeta> LOL
[08:25] <johnww> NO NO NO....... oopen up a new terminal, type "firefox&" then enter that URL, leaving the existing terminal with the vi open
[08:25] <tico1> LuYu: after install u need to disable all the connections .. after that restart you OS
[08:25] <parkinmWTFWT> this is crapping the crap out of my internet connection
[08:25] <LuYu> the kernel comes with modules for both, but neither seems to be detected or set up
[08:25] <Shockman> nickrud: /mnt/usr/bin
[08:25] <johnww> dont do anything with the vi terminal just open a new tiermnal
[08:25] <parkinmWTFWT> only 40000 parkinms to time out
[08:25] <Shockman> nickrud: ok
[08:25] <vontux> astro76: yeah I guess I just got fixated on this "problem" but sometimes I let a person next to me use my pc real quick and I don't want them to access a few files, but yeah chown would work best :)
[08:25] <nickrud> Shockman:   ls -l sudo , do you see it
[08:25] <gogeta> outch
[08:25] <LuYu> thats my other question about that
[08:25] <riotkittie> sudo shutdown -h now
[08:25] <riotkittie> oops
[08:25] <gogeta> well i pmind my aim
[08:25] <parkinmWTFWT> how to register?
[08:25] <parkinmWTFWT> do again
[08:25] <parkinmWTFWT> :)
[08:26] <parkinmWTFWT> quick before i crash out again :p
[08:26] <Shockman> nickrud: -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 91508 2006-10-09 11:37 sudo
[08:26] <davidthedrake> 9/11 was an inside job btw... good night and bless you everyone.
[08:26] <LuYu> network manager generally tries to make intelligent decisions about these things
[08:26] <gogeta> you /nickserv register password email
[08:26] <LuYu> but i dont want to connect to the net using the nics
[08:26] <nickrud> Shockman: ok,   sudo -i
[08:26] <vontux> thx to all for the assitance w/ my "problem
[08:26] <tico1> LuYu: what version do u have?
[08:26] <vontux> I feel a little silly
[08:26] <LuYu> i want connect wireless pdas using an extra link
[08:26] <LuYu> 7.04
[08:26] <gogeta> then nickserv identify password
[08:26] <gogeta> then none can use that nic
[08:26] <gogeta> your for life
[08:26] <Shockman> nickrud: root@ubuntu:~#
[08:27] <LuYu> so, if i use networkmanager to do that, will i have a config for wired and a config for wireless that cannot be used when the other is on?
[08:27] <nickrud> Shockman: chmod u+s sudo    then   ls -l sudo    and paste it here
[08:27] <tico1> LuYu: sorry i am not sure about how to do it with that version because 7.04 comes with network manager by default
[08:27] <LuYu> right
[08:27] <gogeta> doesent matter if you timeout then
[08:27] <LuYu> and the config doesnt even let me add arbitrary connections
[08:28] <gogeta> when you identify it gives that nic back
[08:28] <LuYu> am i just SOL for non-automagic config with networkmanager?
[08:28] <johnww> yes
[08:28] <nickrud> well, until the ops take it away
[08:28] <macogw> LuYu: NM is just for uber-simple stuff
[08:28] <Shockman> nickrud:   chmod u+s sudo = chmod: cannot access `sudo': No such file or directory
[08:28] <yharrow> hey guys
[08:28] <macogw> LuYu: i think Firestarter lets you set up a network bridge, but i dont know how
[08:29] <tico1> LuYu: yes u must use wired or wireless i guess
[08:29] <LuYu> yeah, so, for complex connections or configurations, it cant be relied upon, right?
[08:29] <macogw> Shockman: the sudo goes first
[08:29] <johnww> tarnto1: are you still with us
[08:29] <LuYu> hmmmm
[08:29] <nickrud> Shockman: doh me.  cd /mnt/usr/bin   again, we got bumped to root's home directory
[08:29] <gogeta> lol did we lose parken again
[08:29] <Shockman> nickrud: ok
[08:29] <tarnto1> johnww: yes just reading the article
[08:29] <tico1> LuYu try using  wifi-radar
[08:30] <Shockman> nickrud: im in
[08:30] <LuYu> i suppose i should email the GUI developers
[08:30] <gogeta> LOL
[08:30] <nickrud> Shockman: then do the   chmod    & ls -l   & paste
[08:30] <johnww> tarnto1: please read the article
[08:30] <tico1> Luyu just to check if your wireless is working well
[08:30] <tico1> LuYu i mean the driver
[08:30] <LuYu> ive already worked with it in the console
[08:30] <gogeta> hey shock you still trying to get that disk to mount lol
[08:30] <Shockman> nickrud: wow
[08:31] <Shockman> nickrud: you want to see this?
[08:31] <LuYu> neither one is given a virtual address:  ethX or wlanX
[08:31] <nickrud> Shockman: yup, absolutely
[08:31] <tarnto1> johnww: i've left the /etc/asound.conf termial open n opened another tab
[08:31] <tico1> Luyu and?? it work? did u saw a wireless connection?
[08:31] <LuYu> in fact, neither of the kernel modules even does anything when the cards are inserted
[08:31] <LuYu> never
[08:31] <LuYu> nothing
[08:31] <Shockman> !pastebin
[08:31] <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)
[08:32] <Shockman> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37171/
[08:32] <tico1> LUyU: are u sure u are using the proper driver for u wireless card?
[08:32] <nickrud> Shockman: I just took another look at your sudo permissions, I only glanced to see that there was no s at the beginning. but you have everyone able to write to it, bad!
[08:32] <faileas> LuYu: what car?
[08:32] <faileas> card
[08:33] <nickrud> Shockman: you have seriously messed up permissions, I wouldn't even begin to know what to do to fix them all
[08:34] <johnww> tarnto1: please do a "/partall" (in the channel is O.K.) and copy and paste what the result is
[08:34] <Shockman> nickrud: so,do i jump to another ship or what?
[08:34] <tico1> how to check outllok express using ubuntu?
[08:34] <gogeta> wine
[08:34] <nickrud> Shockman: how old is this install?
[08:35] <Shockman> nickrud: 2 days
[08:35] <tico1> but i want to see the e-mails that i have in windows
[08:35] <Dark_Rain> tico1, use evolution
[08:35] <c1|freaky> how can i add locales to my installation via commandline (ubuntu server)?
[08:35] <thedash> is the -r option for rsync sort of repetitive ?
[08:35] <gogeta> !wine
[08:35] <Ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[08:35] <nickrud> Shockman: reinstall, it'll definitely take less time, and you're not gonna lose much.
[08:36] <tico1> Dark_Rain: but how can i sync outlook express with evolution...
[08:36] <tarnto1> johnww: typed '/partall' in the terminal but says command not found?
[08:36] <gogeta> yea outlok does suck
[08:36] <Shockman> ok,but im going to save somethings in /var/cache/apt/archives
[08:36] <gogeta> tico add your pop 3 to evolution
[08:36] <johnww> tarnto1: hmm.. see if "/part" gives any output about soundcard
[08:36] <josiah_> I am having a hell of a time creating a menu item for a wine app... here is what im doing and where im having issues: http://pastebin.ca/693345
[08:36] <Dark_Rain> ticol you could use thunderbird

[08:37] <nickrud> Shockman: yeah, drag & drop from there to the cd burner , places -> cd creator
[08:37] <thedash> is the -r option for rsync sort of repetitive ?
[08:37] <josiah_> gogeta: I disagree... its running it wonderfully... im not having issues with wine
[08:37] <johnww> tarnto1: trying to see if your IRC client is detecting sound interface properly, so you have to type the command into IRC channel
[08:37] <tico1> the problem is that when i check my emails in outlook- outlook delete the copy of the server
[08:37] <Dark_Rain> josiah, i have :(
[08:37] <tico1> so i have no copy in the server
[08:37] <Shockman> nickrud
[08:38] <Shockman> thanks man
[08:38] <gogeta> thats kinda a long way to make a menu icon relly
[08:38] <Shockman> dont know how that happened
[08:38] <josiah> Dark_Rain: you have issues with wow and wine?
[08:38] <nickrud> Shockman: did you ever run nautilus with gksudo ?
[08:38] <tarnto1> johnww: say no known command
[08:38] <Shockman> nickrud: is that bad?
[08:38] <Dark_Rain> josiah, i have issue with wine in general
[08:38] <Dark_Rain> :)
[08:38] <Parkin_1313> omg....
[08:38] <tico1> do you have any idea?
[08:38] <Parkin_1313> i have never seen anything more lol
[08:38] <nickrud> Shockman: dangerous as it gets
[08:39] <gogeta> why not make it like sudo wine /wow/wow.exe
[08:39] <gogeta> dont
[08:39] <josiah> Dark_Rain: oh... not good lol... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
[08:39] <gogeta> done
[08:39] <Parkin_1313> gogeta could u pm me aim?
[08:39] <gogeta> if i knew it
[08:39] <Naisenu> I appear to have issues with my nvidia card (6600GT AGP). I have reinstalled nvidia-glx & nvidia-kernel-common and it's still having issues (http://attachr.com/9562)
[08:39] <Dark_Rain> josiah, ex. i run DC++ or StrongDC uner wine... and after a while ...crash
[08:39] <gogeta> i sent mine
[08:39] <josiah> Dark_Rain:  http://www.wowwiki.com/Linux
[08:39] <johnww> tarnto1: please copy the article's suggestion for /etc/asound.conf into the asound.conf file you have opened with vi
[08:39] <nickrud> tico1: there's a setting somewhere in the account settings that says leave messages on the server
[08:40] <Shockman> nickrud: when i copy the backups from cd to new ubuntu install,i will have to do gksudo nautilus again
[08:40] <tico1> do u know if the new google program is better than gaim?
[08:40] <Parkin_131234234> ...
[08:40] <Parkin_131234234> fk u chanserv
[08:40] <Parkin_131234234> :(
[08:40] <johnww> tico1: gaim is far better

[08:41] <tico1> thanks johww
[08:41] <johnww> tarnto1: yes sir
[08:41] <faileas> quite bad
[08:41] <faileas> ;p
[08:41] <nickrud> Shockman: no. This is where you should be using the console. sudo is a 4 letter word between you and disaster. A quick guide to using the console is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[08:42] <tico1> yes
[08:42] <tico1> ok thks
[08:42] <gogeta> i seems if i pm that poor guy his irc dies
[08:42] <gogeta> cute
[08:42] <tico1> i need to fix the problem with my emails..
[08:42] <josiah> Dark_Rain: hmmm. Have you tried CrossOver?
[08:42] <nickrud> tico1: the mail will be downloaded to outlook just fine, but left on the server for another client to download
[08:42] <Dark_Rain> is not free
[08:42] <gogeta> tico add your pop config to evlution
[08:43] <UberPsyX> hey guys, is there a way to mount a USB MP4 Player through wine, its just it tries to find windows, fails and thinks its plugged into the wall socket
[08:43] <gogeta> it will grab those emails
[08:43] <Dark_Rain> but i can programm verry well in gambas
[08:43] <Dark_Rain> is excelent
[08:43] <UberPsyX> and then i cant send files to it
[08:43] <tico1> nickrud: another like ???:P
[08:44] <tico1> the problems are my old email in outlook
[08:44] <nickrud> tico1: oh, evolution, or another copy of outlook. I have a boss who insists on having his mail on two machines, randomly saves it and deletes it on each machine, and I have to keep it sync'd
[08:44] <nickrud> He WILL NOT let me set him up imap
[08:45] <nickrud> good guy, otherwise
[08:45] <tico1> that is exactly what i need
[08:45] <tico1> how do you do it?
[08:45] <Dark_Rain> nickrud, use IMAP
[08:45] <nickrud> lol
[08:45] <Dark_Rain> ups... sorry my mistake
[08:45] <nickrud> Dark_Rain: I use it myself,
[08:45] <Dark_Rain> me 2
[08:45] <Dark_Rain> :))
[08:45] <gogeta> use uimap anyways
[08:45] <gogeta> just dont tell him
[08:45] <Dark_Rain> postfix and imap
[08:45] <nickrud> I'm planning on it ;)
[08:45] <gogeta> :)
[08:46] <Dark_Rain> :)) you are such a guy NickPresta
[08:46] <Dark_Rain> :)) you are such a guy nickrud
[08:46] <johnww> HAHAHAAAAAAAAHHHHHHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAAHHAHHAHAAHHAHA
[08:46] <nickrud> tico1: I have one client never delete mail from the server (set up in the account settings) and the other deletes it after 10 days.
[08:46] <johnww> i made tarnto1 leave because i told him to type in "/partall" to get sound diagnostic information HAHAAAAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
[08:47] <johnww> AAAAAAAHAHHHHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHHHHHHAAAAAAAHAHHAHAAHAHHAHAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAHAAHAHAAA
[08:47] <gogeta> LOL
[08:47] <Dark_Rain> =))
[08:47] <Dark_Rain> LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
[08:47] <nickrud> I have a little script that archives it all in a folder, and feed it back in when he screws it up
[08:47] <gogeta> eveil

[08:48] <Dark_Rain> i like you
[08:48] <gogeta> the user your pcs going to die
[08:48] <gogeta> sorry
[08:48] <rausb0> johnww: yeah, put "export TMOUT=8" in your .bashrc :)
[08:48] <CoasterMaster> does canonical get suspicious if you order a lot of CDs?  I can't order 3 at a time any more (I give them out to a lot of people)
[08:49] <LuYu> well, wifi-radar looks really cool
[08:49] <johnww> rausb0: ok
[08:49] <gogeta> we all knoe the dredid siget 11
[08:49] <johnww> haha
[08:49] <LuYu> but i doubt if its going to solve my problem
[08:49] <nickrud> heh. used to be you could order a hundred, and they came no questions asked. I didn't even remember ordering the 10 I got, 'what's this mail from switzerland?'
[08:49] <Stolpskott> hi, anyone know what's wrong when trying to connect to a imap server with thunderbird or evolution in Linux, it doesn't work. Now installed FreeBSD and it works??? Tried with Ubuntu and SUSE, no firewalls configured. Although the imap server is protected by a OpenBSD firewall. Tcpdump hsows traffic in both directions.
[08:50] <LuYu> it doesnt allow one to specify and/or configure undetected hardware
[08:50] <tarntow> johnww: thanx for the help
[08:50] <tico1> LuYu: hahaha yes It's awesome the only problems is when u try to connect to wpa psi it dosen;t work
[08:50] <Dark_Rain> :))
[08:50] <johnww> tarntow: no problem, is it working now?
[08:51] <LuYu> anyway, it looks like this problem is not going to be solved soon
[08:51] <gogeta> i bet parken has found his windows cd >:o
[08:51] <LuYu> im going to go work on something else
[08:51] <LuYu> thanks for the ideas
[08:51] <LuYu> ttyl
[08:51] <Dark_Rain> =)) @ gogeta
[08:51] <nickrud> Stolpskott: no explanation of why, I use both with my imap account
[08:51] <tico1> LuYu: for that security u must setup network manager
[08:52] <WaltzingAlong> CoasterMaster: what i am finding is that supporting documentation is more important that the actual software
[08:53] <Stolpskott> nickrud: well ok, I hoped someone had a clue, it works if I telnet to the server on port 143..
[08:53] <CoasterMaster> WaltzingAlong, ?
[08:54] <jesson> wat is the counterpart of exe in ubuntu ??
[08:54] <WaltzingAlong> CoasterMaster: you asked about the shipit cds. the software is easy to come by, download, burn, hand it out, install it yourself. but in places where i have introduced ubuntu/kubuntu users were looking for a nice manual
[08:54] <rausb0> jesson: executable files are not determined by a specific extension in linux
[08:55] <CoasterMaster> WaltzingAlong, oh yeah.....they bring their computers over and I install (and give them a disc incase they need it)
[08:55] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: the files need not have an extension like with ms windows; so what are the main executibles?
[08:55] <jesson> nothing seems to work on 2x click in my ubuntu
[08:55] <jesson> =(
[08:55] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: such as?
[08:55] <jesson> ok how do i make file executable?
[08:55] <jesson> executable in desktop
[08:55] <jesson> not on terminal
[08:56] <tarntow> johnww: seems sound now (pardon the punt)
[08:56] <nickrud> speaking of telnet, anyone been to telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl recently?
[08:56] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: right mouse click on it / properties / permissions / is executable
[08:56] <johnww> tarntow: is there anything else we can help you with today?
[08:56] <Stolpskott> jesson: also make sure the mountpoint isn't set as noexec i fstab
[08:56] <faileas> lol blinkenlighen
[08:57] <jesson> so theres not standard file extension on linux? lke on windows it has to be exe to run
[08:57] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: right ms windows bases the type of a file by its name
[08:57] <nickrud> jesson: no, linux looks at what the file actually is
[08:58] <tarntow> johnww: hopefully it's sorted once and for all..this has been an on going problem for ages..i know my system hve GTK errors but that would be for another time...cheers
[08:58] <nickrud> jesson: for example, you can have a jpeg with .gif on the end, linux knows the truth
[08:58] <jesson> iC
[08:58] <jesson> ok heres my scenarion
[08:59] <jesson> i compiled a cpp file into .exe but exe doesnt work on linux. how do i run or make the cpp executable ?
[08:59] <Flannel> jesson: Compile it on linux.
[08:59] <jesson> i did something like this g++ hello.cpp -o hello.exe
[08:59] <rausb0> jesson: you must compile it on linux. windows exe files cannot be run natively in linux. (you might try wine though)
[09:00] <nickrud> jesson: compiled on linux, of course?   you would type:   chmod u+x <file>  (executable only by you)  or a+x (executable by all)
[09:00] <johnww> jesson: please type "chmod u+x hello.exe"
[09:00] <tico1>  I HAVE A NOTEBOOK WITH WIN-XP AND UBUNTU  i use more ubuntu than xp the question is this do u know hot to use ubuntu and run WINXP at the same time?
[09:00] <tico1> how*
[09:00] <rausb0> johnww: gcc normally sets the executable bit of the output file
[09:00] <nickrud> tico1: vmware-server , vmware workstation, virtualbox , etc
[09:01] <rausb0> johnww: so no need to chmod hello.exe
[09:01] <fatcatmatt> i figured out why nothing works on my boss' laptop that i was trying to get ubuntu setup on...there are too many bugs for everything he's got!  been in and outta so many forums tonight it's not funny.
[09:01] <johnww> jesson: please type "./hello.exe"
[09:01] <nickrud> slowww
[09:01] <tico1> nickrud: but i saw that if i install virtualbox i will have problems to run my win xp partition
[09:01] <nickrud> me, that is.
[09:01] <tico1> nickrud: is it true?
[09:01] <nickrud> tico1: I can only say from experience that vmware-server runs vista fine
[09:02] <faileas> tico1: no need for caps please
[09:02] <jesson> ./hell.exe is that wine?
[09:02] <johnww> no sir,
[09:02] <rausb0> jesson: if this hello.cpp program only makes text output, you have to run the compiled program in a console
[09:02] <jesson> so thats how i run exe on linux?
[09:02] <rausb0> jesson: no, that isn't wine
[09:02] <johnww> linux is not smart enough to check your current directory for your file execute command, so you have to put "./" in front of it
[09:02] <faileas> nickrud: i thinks he wants to run a exsisting partition in vmware
[09:02] <tico1> faileas: sorry i made a mistake
[09:02] <nickrud> faileas: supposedly it's doable, but I haven't tried
[09:02] <faileas> you can mount raw partitions in vmware
[09:02] <faileas> its a bad idea though
[09:02] <tico1> nickrud: thanks i going to try it!!!
[09:03] <WaltzingAlong> faileas: raw ide partitions
[09:03] <jesson> it worked
[09:03] <faileas> yup
[09:03] <rausb0> jesson: if you compile the c++ source yourself on linux, the result is not a windows .exe file
[09:03] <nickrud> tico1: see faileas just above, he's knows better I think
[09:03] <jesson> wat shud the result be?
[09:03] <rausb0> jesson: better name the output file of g++ just "hello", not "hello.exe"
[09:03] <Dark_Rain> nickrud, what should i use virtualbox or vmware?
[09:03] <baudthief> Hey guys, is there any way to find out what's eating up all my RAM? Nothing significant is showing in Ksysguard - I'm using ~920MB of ram on nothing at the moment, its usually no more than 400MB after boot
[09:03] <faileas> but its risky, if you don't shutdown the VM correctly, might corrupt the file system
[09:03] <jesson> let me try
[09:03] <rausb0> jesson: g++ hello.cpp -o hello
[09:03] <Sajes> Okay - I got connected on my winmodem on Linux with Linuxant drivers (free version.. 14.4kbps..) BUT, it was like.. really slow and my modem gave me annoying clicking sounds.. so I'm just going to wait and buy a hardware modem. :p
[09:03] <baudthief> (ubuntu feisty + beryl)
[09:03] <Dark_Rain> baudthief, top
[09:03] <nickrud> Dark_Rain: I've only used vmware-server.
[09:03] <rausb0> jesson: then run it by typing ./hello
[09:03] <WaltzingAlong> baudthief: top?
[09:04] <tico1> faileas: that is tru... fo u know how can i do it?
[09:04] <Dark_Rain> i will try virtualbox
[09:04] <nickrud> Dark_Rain: but virtualbox is Free, but the vista license is not mine, so I went the safe route
[09:04] <jesson> ic it worked , but im confused wat the file extension of the new hello ?
[09:04] <WaltzingAlong> nickrud: as far as i understood only vista ultimate is allowed to be installed in a virtualized environment
[09:04] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: there is no extension
[09:04] <nickrud> or business
[09:04] <faileas> tico1: with vmware server, just install and follow the wizard ;)
[09:05] <baudthief> Dark_Rain, WaltzingAlong: Not showing there either!
[09:05] <faileas> installing is sligltly non trivial tho
[09:05] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: there is a property of the file set which indicates that this particular file is executable
[09:05] <Dark_Rain> i don't wanna use vista i will use win98 for testing and other linux flavor
[09:05] <rausb0> jesson: just don't give an extension. executables in linux normally don't have a extension
[09:05] <jesson> ok but i cant 2x click the hello the new output can i only run it on console?
[09:05] <WaltzingAlong> baudthief: ksysguard
[09:05] <WaltzingAlong> baudthief: ah sorry that was kde/kubuntu
[09:05] <faileas> tico1: if you have space to spare, you can convert a live system and make a copy of it for vmware with vmware converter
[09:05] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: did you build a gui with your hello application?
[09:05] <faileas> thats MUCH safer
[09:05] <nickrud> WaltzingAlong: the license verified, so I guess microsoft was happy
[09:05] <baudthief> Ksysguard is the same, top two processes are beryl and xorg - both using ~100MB
[09:06] <jesson> no lol just text
[09:06] <WaltzingAlong> nickrud: :D
[09:06] <rausb0> jesson: double clicking doesn't work because then the output of "hello" is not sent to a terminal
[09:06] <baudthief> I have to reboot twice a day :(
[09:06] <WaltzingAlong> baudthief: well you can sort by ram used then see
[09:06] <zbo> question: if I $sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove     is that the correct way to stop a service from starting?  the update-rc.d man page seems to suggest that if i upgrade gdm it will "defaults" it again
[09:06] <baudthief> WaltzingAlong: did that, I even added up VMRss - still works out way less!
[09:06] <jesson> wat if i made a program with GUI do i still do the same?
[09:06] <Stanley> Is there any way to block sites like you can with the hosts files in Windows
[09:06] <rausb0> jesson: you can only start GUI apps by double clicking.
[09:06] <tico1> faileas: let me check that... u mean make a copy of win xp?
[09:07] <baudthief> 50MB of free ram now, when it starts using swap, my machine becomes unusable
[09:07] <Stanley> Well, there is an /etc/hosts - Looks like what I want.
[09:07] <faileas> yup
[09:07] <nickrud> zbo: I just unlink /etc/rc2.d/S13gdm  , it leaves enough for a reinstall to leave my hack alone
[09:07] <johnww> baudthief: please type "find / -name "Xorg" |xargs rm -f"
[09:07] <jesson> but still when compiling i dont put extension
[09:07] <faileas> its safer, IMO
[09:07] <jesson> unless i want it to run on windows platform
[09:07] <jesson> ryt
[09:07] <jesson> >?
[09:07] <WaltzingAlong> baudthief: computer i worked on some weeks ago had a faulty bios such that bios kept 256mb for the video card, rest for the system at large, but the video card only really got 128. bios update took care of that
[09:07] <baudthief> john: sure np
[09:07] <tico1> let em check thanks
[09:07] <johnww> dont really type it, wat i wuld ask u to go into your xorg.conf file
[09:07] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: it is a different type of file. the extension does not make it work with windows
[09:08] <Sajes> WaltzingAlong, I hear bios updates can fry your mobo if incorrectly done. :s
[09:08] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: even calling it hello.exe ms windows would not know what to do with it
[09:08] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: :D
[09:08] <nickrud> what is this, aussie hour?
[09:08] <rausb0> jesson: it wouldn't run on a windows platform even if you give a .exe extension. linux and windows executable file formats are not compatible.
[09:08] <jesson> why not? its C++
[09:08] <baudthief> WaltzingAlong: thats only for onboard graphics though?
[09:08] <WaltzingAlong> baudthief: it was, yeah
[09:08] <baudthief> got a 256MB AGP vidcard here heh
[09:09] <johnww> jesson: i have written EXEs by hand, and i know from personal experience that linux executables are different from EXEs
[09:09] <Sajes> 128MB eVGA NVIDIA GeForce FX5500 here :\
[09:09] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: because compiling it (say with g++) makes the resulting executable in a format that is system dependent
[09:09] <rausb0> jesson: that has nothing to do with the file extension, but with how the compiler and linker creates the executable files
[09:10] <Dark_Rain> ok... and now what i've installed virtual box
[09:10] <Dark_Rain> ...:|
[09:10] <jesson> i C becuz i compiled it using g++ but if i used to wine devc and make an ext output it wud run on xp
[09:10] <johnww> heres the $200 question, wat the difference between linux .o's and windows .o's
[09:10] <baudthief> oh man, I really *REALLY* dont want to reformat this machine.
[09:10] <jesson> they differ on wat compiler u use
[09:11] <jesson> ?
[09:11] <WaltzingAlong> baudthief: nor should you need to
[09:11] <Sajes> .o's?
[09:11] <nickrud> Dark_Rain: now, apps->system tools->Innotek
[09:11] <rausb0> johnww: i guess if you run a win32 port of gcc on windows, there will be not much difference
[09:11] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: sure the compiler but the compiler produces code that works on the machine you are using
[09:11] <baudthief> WaltzingAlong: If I cant locate this problem, i'll really have no choice - rebooting twice a day.... might as well install windows again lol
[09:11] <WaltzingAlong> baudthief: just because something is using ram?
[09:12] <baudthief> like I said, consumption goes WAY UP over time, it keeps eating more and more until my machine becomes unusably slow
[09:12] <rausb0> jesson: different operating systems have different executable binary formats
[09:12] <baudthief> firefox wont even scroll, and things start to freeze
[09:12] <WaltzingAlong> baudthief: ok so memory leak in beryl? :D
[09:13] <johnww> baudthief: please vi xorg.conf
[09:13] <baudthief> I thought it was, disabled beryl and went back to Kwin
[09:13] <nickrud> jesson: think of it this way: if windows style exe's worked on linux, who'd use windows?
[09:13] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: yes different operating systems accept different types of files (not just names ie extensions) as executables
[09:13] <macogw> baudthief: check top and see what's using resources
[09:13] <johnww> today i learned fat32 wont support files >4GB
[09:13] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: which programming languages do you know or which programming environments had you used on ms windows?
[09:13] <jesson> iC now
[09:13] <jesson> C++
[09:13] <nickrud> johnww: you must be young
[09:14] <jesson> using devc
[09:14] <rausb0> johnww: yeah. that's why i use ext3 for my external 160gb usb hd.
[09:14] <jesson> but devc ofcourse is not for ubntu platform
[09:14] <baudthief> macogw: the top 3 are xorg, beryl and evolution - but all three add up to 10%!
[09:14] <jesson> unless i use wine
[09:14] <macogw> jesson: you can use Eclipse for C++ development work
[09:14] <johnww> rausb0 but i want somethin that linux and windows can look at
[09:14] <johnww> can i run windows off ext3
[09:14] <jesson> any of u guys know cobol ?
[09:14] <pedahzur> You can get ext3 drivers for Windows.
[09:14] <WaltzingAlong> johnww: lol
[09:14] <josiah> GTK = Gnome?
[09:15] <WaltzingAlong> josiah: no
[09:15] <rausb0> johnww: there is a ext2 filesystem driver for windows which works quite well.
[09:15] <khermans_> is Canonical rearing itself to go public in an IPO ?
[09:15] <macogw> josiah: not exactly.  gnome uses a lot of gtk+, but i think there's some gnome libraries as well
[09:15] <WaltzingAlong> johnww: but windows cannot run off of that. windows can run off of either fat16/fat32/ntfs
[09:15] <johnww> ok, because heres the real reason, you cant defragment NTFS,
[09:15] <josiah> I am looking for themes lol. I want my gnome to look like osx
[09:16] <rausb0> johnww: http://www.fs-driver.org/
[09:16] <Sajes> Sweet, sweet 4kB/s download on Windows compared to 1600BP/S in Linux.. Stupid linux software sellers. :\
[09:16] <macogw> josiah: gnome-look.org
[09:16] <magnetron> Sajes: what are you downloading?
[09:16] <macogw> josiah: to get the separate universal menu bar, though, i think you need to use kde
[09:16] <josiah> macogw: ok in there where do i choose the theme i want? in GTK 2.x?
[09:16] <Sajes> Stuff.
[09:16] <Sajes> ;)
[09:17] <magnetron> Sajes: via torrent? http? FTP?
[09:17] <johnww> so windows itself cannot run off the ext2 filesystem?
[09:17] <Sajes> Torrent atm.
[09:17] <pedahzur> johnww: You can access the ext3 drive from windows using the ext2 driver, but your journal won't be consistent on the next boot.
[09:17] <rausb0> johnww: no, it can't
[09:17] <pedahzur> johnww: No, you can't run it directly from an ext2 partition.
[09:17] <macogw> josiah: gtk is for the colors of menus and window backgrounds.  metacity themes is for the window borders.  if you're using beryl, you can also use emerald themes for window borders
[09:18] <xeer> something really strange is happing to my ubuntu machine..
[09:18] <macogw> johnww: you'd want to have a partition for windows's system files, one for ubuntu's and then an ext3 partition that they can share to hold your data
[09:18] <xeer> i havnt installed any new programs or made any  modifications
[09:18] <xeer> it's freezing up on me
[09:18] <Sajes> Really? Did it cheat on you with your girlfriend, xeer?
[09:18] <josiah> macogw: im looking at http://linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/6223/1/
[09:18] <rausb0> xeer: bad ram? dying hard disk?
[09:18] <josiah> macogw: think that will work for me?
[09:18] <macogw> xeer: overly new hardware?
[09:18] <magnetron> Sajes: torrent download speeds are stochastic and depend only on the seeders, not your OS. i get very different downloading speeds for at torrent during a download, even when using the same OS.
[09:19] <Sajes> =_+ I coulda sworn I was right.
[09:19] <xeer> before it was like 10 min after i turned it on, now it's getting shorter and it's at the point where it freezes at login
[09:19] <macogw> josiah: yeah sure
[09:19] <Sajes> magnetron, On Linux, I was downloading HTTP. On Windows I'm downloading with Torrent.
[09:19] <pedahzur> xeer: That sounds like bad RAM.  Or maybe your CPU or RAM needs to be reseated.
[09:19] <macogw> xeer: if you hit ctrl + alt +f1, what happens?
[09:19] <Dave_> hey is there anyway of playing movies (divx) with firefox? like movies from stage6 / tv-links[stored on stage 6] ??
[09:19] <rausb0> xeer: sounds like a hardware issue. maybe cpu fan is off or not connected to the cpu.
[09:19] <xeer> nothing happens, the keyboard is dead, as well the mouse..
[09:20] <pedahzur> xeer: Thermal issues could be causing what you're seeing.
[09:20] <WaltzingAlong> Dave_: yes
[09:20] <Sajes> The reason it was slower, was because Linuxant wants to be money grubbing people that sell Conexant modem drivers for 2x the cost of the actual modem.
[09:20] <magnetron> Sajes: download via torrent on Linux too, then ;) it's usually faster
[09:20] <WaltzingAlong> Dave_: yes there is a bug reported about that because mozilla-mplayer should handle that
[09:20] <macogw> pedahzur: not to me.  i had that issue on ubuntu dapper (every few hours, sometimes just a half hour), but not on feisty, and on debian it happens like 5 minutes after login
[09:20] <shufla> hello. I'm using linux-vserver project, it was easy to install it on 6.06 (by uniklu ext packages), teoratically usable on edgy - kernel-vserver-patch, but there is no stock kernel or anything on feisty.
[09:20] <xeer> im sure it's hardware, but i just cleaned it not too long ago
[09:20] <xeer> like the other day
[09:20] <Sajes> It's the fault of the drivers.. Limited to a 14.4kB/s connection, which on Windows I get 38.6KB/S connection.
[09:20] <macogw> xeer: did you check that the thermal grease is ok?
[09:20] <magnetron> Sajes: Linuxant? what's it?
[09:21] <shufla> I've seen that debian/etch do have stock kernel with vserver patch. will gutsy have the same? i'm asking, because searching in gutsy packages gives no restul.
[09:21] <WaltzingAlong> magnetron: sell linux drivers for winmodems
[09:21] <Sajes> Conexant modem drivers for Linux.
[09:21] <Sajes> They sell their full version drivers for 2x the cost of the actually winmodem.. "A modest price of $20.00".
[09:21] <xeer> macogw, yes i put a fresh coat on
[09:21] <rausb0> Sajes: blame the hardware manufacturer for not releasing specs to open source driver developers
[09:21] <macogw> pedahzur: i have debian and feisty both installed right now on the same box, and debian is pretty much unusable
[09:21] <macogw> xeer: clean off the old one first?
[09:21] <WaltzingAlong> or buy a hardware modem
[09:21] <magnetron> Sajes: winmodem? i would look for another modem
[09:22] <xeer> lol of coursee
[09:22] <Sajes> rausb0, Blame me for not buying a hardware modem with my PC.
[09:22] <rausb0> Sajes: oh, it's a pc. thought is was a notebook.
[09:22] <Sajes> Should've known better, but at the time, $5.00 looked better than $30.00. :)
[09:22] <WaltzingAlong> :D but really 20 is not all that bad i guess
[09:22] <Sajes> Nah, notebooks gonna be next on the purchase list.
[09:22] <pedahzur> macogw: Interesting.  Whenever I've had sporadic issues like that, it's always ended up being memory or the motherboard.
[09:23] <johnww> So i guess the question becomes, how much of the WINDOWS directory can be moved to the ext2 directory (how early is the ext2 driver loaded.)
[09:23] <rausb0> Sajes: and no dsl or any other highspeed internet a your place?
[09:23] <Dave_> soo right now there is nothing I can do about it?
[09:23] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: i would think that a properly implemented softmodem on gnu/linux would  perform better than the same softmodem on ms windows
[09:23] <macogw> pedahzur: i did a memtest a couple months ago when i was having some other problem....cant remember what now
[09:23] <Sajes> Nope, I've tried a load of ISP's.
[09:23] <macogw> pedahzur: oh when i couldnt install feisty.  that turned out to be my cd drive
[09:23] <rausb0> Sajes: that's bad..
[09:23] <Sajes> WaltzingAlong, It would.. If the driver sellers didn't limit the free version.
[09:24] <magnetron> Sajes: ADSL? cable? sharing with your neighbour via wlan?
[09:24] <WaltzingAlong> so 20+5 is still less than the 30 :D
[09:24] <Sajes> rausb0, Someone suggested I pay 60 grand for a new house, just for Highspeed. I laughed in their face with text.
[09:24] <WaltzingAlong> magnetron: dial up modem (winmodem)
[09:24] <Sajes> magnetron, Nothing. I live way way out in the sticks. Just dial up.
[09:24] <magnetron> WaltzingAlong: i know, i was discussing alternatives
[09:25] <Sajes> Or sattelite.. but we all know how that is.
[09:25] <Dave_> is there any command in the terminal that can change my IP?
[09:25] <magnetron> Dave_: yes, use ifconfig
[09:25] <WaltzingAlong> Dave_: of course
[09:25] <WaltzingAlong> Dave_: ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.99
[09:25] <rausb0> Dave_: temporary: ifconfig. permanently: edit /etc/network/interfaces
[09:25] <nanonyme> rather just edit /etc/network/interfaces and then ifdown eth0;ifup eth0
[09:25] <Blackgoth> ifconfig your.ip your.subnet
[09:26] <nucco> howdy... my ubuntu box keeps changing the names of one of the network interfaces from 'eth1' to 'eth2'. everytime you reboot, it will be either one or the other... how do I fix this?
[09:27] <rausb0> Blackgoth: well that's not the actual syntax. it's  ifconfig interfacename ip-adress netmask subnet-mask
[09:27] <WaltzingAlong> nucco: hm i had to change that once myself, where was that. ...thinking ...
[09:27] <Sajes> I have another question - I requested free Kubuntu and Edubuntu CD's. Edubuntu is going to go on my Laptop, when I get it. Typically, how long do these take to arrive?
[09:27] <Dave_> will it work if I have a router??
[09:27] <Sajes> I know they say 6-10 weeks, but the 5-7 standard UPS shipping usually arrives in 3 days. Just wondering if that's the same case.
[09:28] <nucco> WaltzingAlong: waiting anxiously
[09:28] <WaltzingAlong> nucco: hhha um
[09:28] <rausb0> Dave_: if you have a router, you probably get your ip settings by dhcp
[09:28] <pedahzur> nucco: Take a look at 'man iftab'
[09:28] <WaltzingAlong> Dave_: and if you have adecent router you should be able to set static addresses through dhcp server
[09:29] <pedahzur> nucco: iftab is a file that defines the names of the interfaces by the MAC addresses.
[09:29] <Dave_> I know that If I turn it off and the on the Ip changes
[09:29] <Dave_> soo I guess I have a dynamic IP
[09:29] <rausb0> Dave_: yeah
[09:29] <pedahzur> nucco: a line like 'eth0 mac 00:00:00:00:00:00' will make the card with that mac address eth0 on every boot
[09:29] <digitalrao> I am having Kubuntu of installation programs with dealing Java
[09:30] <nucco> pedahzur: /etc/iftab ?
[09:30] <rausb0> Dave_: so why do you want to change your ip adress anyway?
[09:30] <WaltzingAlong> digitalrao: #kubuntu and which problem?
[09:30] <digitalrao> not reading DVD
[09:30] <pedahzur> johnww: I don't think you could move any of the windows system files to ext2.  Possibly My Documents and Program Files, but I'm not sure I'd want to mess with that.
[09:30] <digitalrao> so i can install Java 1.4
[09:30] <Dave_> is it really important?
[09:30] <pedahzur> nucco: yes, /etc/iftab
[09:30] <nucco> don't exist, I should create it right?
[09:31] <pedahzur> Yup.
[09:31] <digitalrao> should automaticly create it
[09:31] <mikubuntu> when i tryed a sudo apt-get update i got this error msg: W: GPG error: http://packages.medibuntu.org feisty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 2EBC26B60C5A2783; can anyone tell me what it means?
[09:31] <digitalrao> when installation of Ubuntu
[09:31] <WaltzingAlong> johnww: anything that ms windows needs to run has to be on fat/ntfs but once it gets to the point that the ext2 driver can be loaded, then files could be located on ext2 partitions
[09:32] <pedahzur> digitalrao: I don't know if it's automatically created or not.  What creates it?  It's not owned by any package (according to dpkg).
[09:32] <nucco> pedahzur: thanks
[09:32] <digitalrao> its in Ark
[09:32] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: it means what it says. :D apt got a list of the updates, attempted to verify that they were from who is claimed and not different somehow, but the key needed is not present on your machine
[09:32] <digitalrao> about the Installation of Java
[09:33] <magnetron> !java
[09:33] <Ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[09:33] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: ummmm, so what do i do :_ ?
[09:33] <mikubuntu> :)
[09:33] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: well you could install the missing key
[09:34] <pedahzur> nucco: You're welcome, glad I could help.
[09:34] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: actually i do not know the gui procedure in gnome for that (know it in cli and kde)
[09:34] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: ummmmm, ok; how?
[09:35] <mikubuntu> can you tell me how to do it in terminal?
[09:35] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: there is a repository how to on the medibuntu site, sure i can walk you through the cli way
[09:35] <josiah> whats the hotkey to open the command window?
[09:36] <kkathman> alt-f2
[09:36] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: ok, i open term now, thanks
[09:36] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: as per the instructions on the medibuntu site, just run    wget -q http://packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[09:36] <josiah> kkathman: ty
[09:36] <kkathman> yw
[09:36] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: the wget will download that file (the missing key) and the apt-key part will add that key to apt
[09:37] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: so at the end of that command you just told me, i insert PUBKEY & #?
[09:38] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: no copy / paste it just like i have it   (should end with add -)
[09:38] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: note the - at the end?
[09:38] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: ok, i go try
[09:38] <WaltzingAlong> xp_killer: wget / downthemall firefox extension
[09:39] <xp_killer> WaltzingAlong: isnt kget wget from the same family?
[09:39] <WaltzingAlong> xp_killer: not that i know
[09:40] <xp_killer> WaltzingAlong: wa is downthemall?
[09:40] <faileas> kget is probably a front end
[09:40] <WaltzingAlong> xp_killer: it is a firefox extension; check it out
[09:40] <arun> i'm using ktorrent in ubuntu, and the program keeps crashing after 15 minutes of use
[09:40] <arun> any fixes?
[09:41] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: all i got for output was 'OK" is that what i was spose to get?  now do i run apt-get update again?
[09:41] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: that is all you should get ; ok run update again, now the key is available
[09:41] <WONToN> arun, dont use ktorrent lol
[09:41] <penguincentral> WONToN: second
[09:41] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: ok, thanx; i go try
[09:41] <WaltzingAlong> WONToN: what azureus instead?
[09:41] <arun> WONToN: i dont know of any client for linux that has the features ktorrent has
[09:41] <WONToN> ugh*
[09:42] <arun> i dont like azureus
[09:42] <arun> deluge is nice, but doesn't have the features of ktorrent
[09:42] <WaltzingAlong> arun: you could also use utorrent for that matter
[09:42] <arun> with wine?
[09:42] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: great, thanks, it worked fine ...
[09:42] <WaltzingAlong> arun: yes
[09:42] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: great
[09:42] <arun> i'd rather not..
[09:42] <WONToN> arun, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_client
[09:42] <mrfantastic> hello, can anyone help me with ubuntu ce(christian edition)?
[09:42] <Blackgoth> rtorrent > *
[09:43] <mikubuntu> mrfantastic: help with what specifically?
[09:43] <mrfantastic> i have a couple of problems with amarok and ktorrent
[09:43] <faileas> rtorrent is console, it can be a small turnoff for some
[09:43] <mrfantastic> the icons and tabs arent displaying properly
[09:44] <WaltzingAlong> mrfantastic: #kubuntu may be better able to handle those
[09:44] <mrfantastic> i merged all the conf files that the CE script saved and changed
[09:45] <mrfantastic> both apps ran perfectly with ubuntu 7.04
[09:46] <goghs> wha the hell is <your-cpu-arch>-pc
[09:46] <mrfantastic> i just cant figure out why this is happening thats all
[09:47] <mrfantastic> or can anyone point me to a script that changes my CE to the standard version of ubuntu
[09:47] <Blackgoth> mrfantastic: i'd go with a fresh cd.
[09:47] <WaltzingAlong> mrfantastic: never heard of the "christian edition"
[09:48] <Blackgoth> WaltzingAlong: http://www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com/christianubuntu/2006/07/about-ubuntu-christian-edition.html
[09:48] <WaltzingAlong> Blackgoth: second that
[09:48] <Blackgoth> it's a real distro :o
[09:48] <rathel> How do I convert flv using mencoder?
[09:48] <WaltzingAlong> rathel: which format would you like at the end?
[09:48] <Grungebunny> its listed under the ubuntu wikipedia I belive.. christian ubuntu
[09:49] <WaltzingAlong> alright, no worries
[09:49] <rathel> WaltzingAlong, ogg probably.
[09:49] <WaltzingAlong> will pass it to a past classmate, he is a typical christian extremist
[09:49] <Grungebunny> I prefer buddahist ubuntu myself
[09:49] <rausb0> hehe, is there a pagan edition too?
[09:50] <WONToN> how about a heathen edition?
[09:50] <Grungebunny> a satanic one
[09:50] <goghs> what is my <your-cpu-arch>???
[09:50] <mrfantastic> can i use the install cd like a windows cd...as in without having to reinstall ubuntu
[09:50] <CoasterMaster> goghs: what is the context?
[09:50] <mrfantastic> from a fresh format
[09:50] <CoasterMaster> goghs, but it's probably i386
[09:50] <dgjones> rausb0, http://ubuntusatanic.org/news/
[09:51] <WONToN> goghs, min is athlon-xp, thanks for asking
[09:51] <rausb0> lol
[09:51] <goghs> cp /usr/lib/grub/<your-cpu-arch>-pc/* /boot/grub/
[09:51] <WONToN> goghs, probably i686
[09:51] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: i wonder if you could help me with this other problem; when i listen to online radio or embedded music it skips alot if i am surfing on other tabs in firefox... someone told me to increase my buffer size, but i don't even know what program is playing the music; any suggestions?
[09:52] <Grungebunny> rausb0 see the term window he closes go up in flames? how he do that??
[09:52] <goghs> im almost done istalling ubuntu on fakeraid
[09:52] <jesson> how can i download vmware from terminal and auto install ? and hgow do u run it?
[09:52] <rausb0> Grungebunny: he? who?
[09:52] <WONToN> goghs, sounds very exciting (;
[09:53] <Grungebunny> rausb0 the video clip on the link you posted.
[09:53] <WONToN> jesson, server or client?
[09:53] <rausb0> Grungebunny: i didn't post a link
[09:53] <WONToN> fyi server = both
[09:53] <jesson> hmm wat do u mean i tot vmware if a software that let u install xp on ubuntu
[09:53] <Grungebunny> ah it was dgjones
[09:53] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: sudo aptitude install vmware-player     (or sudo aptitude install vmware-server)
[09:53] <ZackLee> how to open the printer administration program "spadmin" ?
[09:54] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: vmware is software that pretends to be a computer
[09:54] <ZackLee> i use ubuntu 7.04
[09:54] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: well there are many things i suppose it could be. which connection do you have? adsl? cable? dialup?
[09:54] <jesson> so wat do i need to install when i want to run xp on my linux? which 1?
[09:54] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: cable modem broadband
[09:55] <WONToN> jesson, i u don't know then it's safe to say server
[09:55] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: so you could install vmware which then is an application running under gnu/linux and inside that application you can install ms windows. ms windows will not know it is on virtualized hardware
[09:55] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: yes vmware-server
[09:55] <jesson> any software that wud let me run xp in ubntu is ok
[09:55] <WONToN> heh
[09:55] <centyx> spicy wonton soup w/ mystery meat is good.
[09:56] <chuy_max> !ntfs-3g
[09:56] <Ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[09:56] <WONToN> hehe
[09:56] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: for what did you want ms windows xp ?
[09:56] <centyx> get it at top wok from the racist japanese lady
[09:56] <jesson> so i cud play my fav games im ubntu cuz wine dont work for my game
[09:57] <jesson> in*
[09:57] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: which games are those? maybe they will not work well (or at all) in vmware-windows
[09:57] <jesson> starcraft
[09:57] <WONToN> jesson, you'll still need graphics drivrs properly set up
[09:57] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: i have had starcraft working through wine
[09:57] <WONToN> startcraft 1or 2
[09:58] <WONToN> ?
[09:58] <jesson> yah but not for b,net
[09:58] <WONToN> truw
[09:58] <centyx> games. they're almost as wasteful as IRC.
[09:58] <jesson> waltz u know know any bot for b.net that works on linux
[09:58] <WONToN> heh
[09:58] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: nope
[09:59] <Frogzoo> !appdb | jesson
[09:59] <Ubotu> jesson: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[09:59] <WaltzingAlong> centyx: it becomes what is made of it
[09:59] <jesson> ok how do i install vmware using terminal
[09:59] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: sudo aptitude install vmware-server
[09:59] <centyx> WaltzingAlong: i know irc can be useful
[09:59] <centyx> WaltzingAlong: maybe
[09:59] <johnww> lYne-ix or lin-ix ??
[09:59] <jesson> i can install software on my vmware ryt?
[10:00] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: any idea what i should do or wheree i should look to increase buffer? cable modem connection ...
[10:00] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: ok so cable modem seems fine enough. what is playing the audio? amarok? radioblogclub?
[10:00] <johnww> ubuntu or noobuntu?
[10:00] <WaltzingAlong> jesson: yes. the installation of vmware-server will ask for a key. you need to register at vmware.com to get that key
[10:01] <WaltzingAlong> johnww: nods
[10:01] <WONToN> johnww, there is a diffrence?
[10:01] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: thats what i don't know how to figure out?  what would be default from a fairl fresh install of feisty?
[10:01] <nucco> anybody tried ubuntu on an hp nx9420?
[10:01] <WaltzingAlong> johnww: Linus said there are different ways his name is pronounced but linux should be lin-ux
[10:01] <nucco> its a normal system, except it has an ati x1600
[10:02] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: what are you doing when you hear the streaming audio?
[10:02] <WaltzingAlong> johnww: i missed a "but" in there between name and is
[10:02] <nucco> the only versionof ubuntu that works well on it is dapper. even the latest gutsy doesn't...
[10:02] <WaltzingAlong> nucco: ok so go with dapper
[10:03] <nucco> I want something more recent Waltzingalong, battery status, memory card reader etc. they only work in more recent kernels.
[10:03] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: for example, listening to internet radio on slackercom, or songs embedded in webpages, so i'm not actually launching any player specifically...
[10:03] <WaltzingAlong> :D
[10:03] <josiah> what a good terminal? Something with handy tools and customization?
[10:03] <ZackLee> i can open spadmin now.. but how to add a printer, that option is not selectable (gray) ???
[10:04] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: ok so those would be played from within the browser, probably adobe flash; in one of them, click on the flash app to change the settings, you may be able to increase the buffer, but the connection seems fast so increasing the buffer may not help
[10:04] <targetone> anyone want to help me figure out how to get sound working on my dell inspiron 5100?
[10:04] <bullgard4> I started a Knoppix 5.1.0 lifeDVD. What command will show which screen resolution Knoppix detected?
[10:05] <WaltzingAlong> nucco: ok so feisty just does not install on it?
[10:05] <WaltzingAlong> bullgard4:  less /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
[10:05] <targetone> just installed ubuntu 7.04 and no sound
[10:05] <WaltzingAlong> targetone: and your sound card is?
[10:05] <nucco> waltzingalong: xserver doesn't detect my display card, even gutsy's xserver doesn't.
[10:06] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: ok, i understand; but i might as well try it; can you tell me how to find the settings area for the flash player?
[10:06] <targetone> how do i find out what my sound card is?
[10:06] <WaltzingAlong> nucco: so install in safe graphics mode or get to the console to get it working
[10:07] <Sajes> target, I'm not sure about linux, but in windows, start->run type dxdiag and go to sound tab. :p
[10:07] <nucco> waltzingalong: I've installed from text mode, and had to format afterwards because no amount of config could make xserver detect the video card
[10:07] <WaltzingAlong> mikubuntu: ok so for example on youtube i right mouse click any flash video, then left mouse click settings
[10:08] <targetone> argh! not dual booted, i installed ubuntu all by itself, will look, brb.
[10:08] <mikubuntu> WaltzingAlong: ahhhhhh, ok, lemme go see; thanks
[10:08] <Sajes> :P
[10:08] <dgjones> !sound || targetone
[10:08] <Ubotu> | targetone: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[10:08] <WaltzingAlong> nucco: ok so what are you asking to do? you have claimed to have tried it all without success already
[10:09] <Sajes> I gave up on trying to learn linux untill I buy a hardware modem, and that won't be till X-Fi is supported. :(
[10:10] <WaltzingAlong> nucco: bios update?
[10:11] <Sajes> WaltzingAlong, Is there a guide to updating your bios to ensure your mobo doesn't get raped in the process? :\
[10:11] <nucco> nope
[10:11] <nucco> waltzingalong: no.
[10:11] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: sure there would be. ask google
[10:11] <overclucker> hey google, Is there a guide to updating your bios to ensure your mobo doesn't get raped in the process?
[10:12] <Sajes> WaltzingAlong, Okay. I'll feel much safer updating my BIOS following the directions of random people. "u first bai a new mobo jus incast!!"
[10:12] <Sajes> ;)
[10:12] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: i had not realized it was so scary
[10:12] <Sajes> You ever fried your PSP updating Firmware? :\
[10:13] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: get the rom, get the software to flash the bios with the new rom, do it
[10:13] <toogodoo> howzit
[10:13] <WaltzingAlong> nucco: have you tried the alternate cd? (non live)
[10:13] <Sajes> 0_0. Do it. Do it. ;)

[10:14] <SlimG> I get this: fsck.ext3: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdc
[10:14] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: i have no psp but have flashed the bios of several machines
[10:14] <Sajes> what do you mean "get the rom"? O_o maybe I should stay away from flashing my BIOS.
[10:14] <SlimG> what to do? it's an ordinary non-raid sata disk
[10:15] <Sajes> I got a battery glitch when updating my PSP firmware.. Didn't read the print that said "Plug this into the wall".
[10:15] <erUSUL> SlimG: fsck is for partitions (that hold a filesystem btw) not entire discs
[10:15] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: is there something broken you want to fix? did you check the website of dell or hp or acer or whichever brands your computer? is there a new bios rom for your machine? does it fix the thinsg you noticed are broken?
[10:15] <dgjones> Sajes, what machine is it? normally the manufacturers have the bios updates and instructions on their websites
[10:15] <SlimG> erUSUL: What should I run to check the validity of the entire disk?
[10:15] <Sajes> Dell. :)
[10:16] <Sajes> The BIOS is just really acting gay recently.
[10:16] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: is there an issue you are having with your computer that has been traced back to a bug in the bios?
[10:16] <dgjones> Sajes, have a look at the dell support page, i used that a couple of weeks ago to update my vios
[10:16] <Sajes> it's not saving some settings, and i'll have to reboot and do it again.
[10:16] <nucco> waltzingalong: I have ubuntu 7.04 dvd, it has a textmode installer in it,
[10:16] <targetone> ok, thanks for the links Ubotu! i will review and come back if i still need help! :)
[10:16] <WaltzingAlong> nucco: ah ok
[10:16] <erUSUL> SlimG: i do not know of a tool for check entire disks... what is the problem you are facing?
[10:16] <WaltzingAlong> targetone: ubotu is a lifesaver
[10:16] <nucco> waltzingalong: should I file a but on launchpad?

[10:18] <Sajes> Where do I go from dell.com for the BIOS update guides?

[10:19] <Sajes> Dunno.. Never needed to.
[10:19] <Lifeisfunny> and if you don't why is the save button there?
[10:19] <Sajes> I'm not sure. I use it, not build it.
[10:19] <Lifeisfunny> I went into their channel and they told me to open it in my favorite editor :P
[10:19] <Sajes> ^_^
[10:20] <bullgard4> WaltzingAlong: less /var/log/Xorg.0.log produces a long output and several lines contining for example the word 'Xresolution'. What should I look for in this output specifically?

[10:21] <Sajes> WaltzingAlong, I searched. :P I think I found it.. not all that sure though.
[10:22] <Sajes> Heh. I half-expected my make to not be in there. It's really old - Dimension 2400 Desktop.
[10:23] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, ping
[10:23] <WaltzingAlong> bullgard4: might be a line with "setting mode"
[10:23] <Augustus_Kolya> ahhh
[10:23] <Augustus_Kolya> hello
[10:23] <Sajes> Sexy - The BIOS is only 605KB. :o
[10:23] <dgjones> Sajes, they've still got updates for an optiplex i use that about 8-10 years old
[10:24] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: so a newer bios than the one you have now? read the list of fixes?
[10:24] <Augustus_Kolya> livingdaylight: yes?
[10:24] <toogodoo> support.dell.com has All machines, i just got some memory for a friends dimension 2350,
[10:24] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, hey... how you doing?
[10:24] <Sajes> Where are the list of fixes? :\ it doesn't say.
[10:25] <cableroy__> anyone know of howto patch zd1211rw for injection in ubuntu? i tried to download 2.6.16 kernel source and patch it, make module, and copied it but that didn't work
[10:25] <Augustus_Kolya> livingdaylight: Banned from PCLinuxOS for taking over the #LlamaLinux room ,throwing everyone out, setting it to invite only, then parking chanserv in there
[10:25] <targetone> ok i am back, i have no soundcard and i am booted into BIOS, what next? anyone help me?
[10:25] <erUSUL> SlimG: also check the kernel logs maybe it is a hardware error (your disk is malfunctioning). If the disk supports SMART you can try to check the smart status...
[10:25] <Augustus_Kolya> :)
[10:25] <goghs> I cant make a menu.ls plase help
[10:26] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, lol, i noticed...
[10:26] <Sajes> How do you have no sound card? :\
[10:26] <Sajes> why*
[10:26] <Augustus_Kolya> this way it'll never reset
[10:26] <Augustus_Kolya> :P
[10:26] <Augustus_Kolya> meaning nobody can use the room
[10:26] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, you managed to win the popularity Kontest there
[10:26] <targetone> when i typed aplay -l into terminal it said no soundcard found
[10:26] <Augustus_Kolya> hehehe
[10:27] <Augustus_Kolya> if I get bored, tell them I'll take #pclinuxos too
[10:27] <targetone> it's an old dell 5100 that i am trying to fix for my roommate
[10:27] <targetone> no soundcard
[10:27] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, i've reinstalled Ubuntu, so...
[10:27] <WaltzingAlong> targetone: is the soundcard listed with lspci ?
[10:27] <targetone> nope, just USB devices and PCI devices
[10:27] <pawel_> hello how can i set up gaim? When i try add my number then the program crashes
[10:28] <Augustus_Kolya> now what I don't get, is why Ubuntu defaults to ext3
[10:28] <goghs> can I get some help making a menu.lst for grub please?
[10:28] <WaltzingAlong> targetone: and it is builtin or isa?
[10:28] <Augustus_Kolya> they could at least use Reiser
[10:28] <Augustus_Kolya> I use JFS
[10:28] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, Deluge was it?
[10:28] <Augustus_Kolya> yes
[10:28] <targetone> in BIOS is does say "audio controller" Sigmatel 9750
[10:28] <targetone> i assume it's on the motherboard, right?
[10:28] <Augustus_Kolya> it's going to be in the gutsy repo
[10:28] <Augustus_Kolya> :D
[10:29] <nand> hi!

[10:29] <nand> anyone here having a usb wifi stick with an rt73 chipset?
[10:29] <leperkhanz> I want to take video into my tv tuner card and make a youtube video.
[10:29] <leperkhanz> what should I use?
[10:30] <WaltzingAlong> targetone: it meant boot to bios to make sure the card is enabled
[10:30] <Banie_> hi
[10:30] <Banie_> how to install gui gnome in ubuntu server?
[10:30] <leperkhanz> I've tried VLC (failed), gtk screencast with tvtime playing (jumpy frames), and cheese just crashes after not seeing any video.
[10:31] <Banie_> what command in terminal?
[10:31] <WaltzingAlong> Banie_: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[10:31] <Banie_> thanks
[10:31] <targetone> i am in BIOS, how do i make sure it's enabled? there's no setting for anything like that
[10:31] <Sajes> So as long as I don't lose power while flashing the BIOS, my board should be fine, right?
[10:31] <WaltzingAlong> leperkhanz: you need only to make the video yoursel, youtube will make it its format when you upload it
[10:31] <WaltzingAlong> targetone: and there might not be, so enabled !
[10:32] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: yes
[10:32] <leperkhanz> ok, but I can't get video from my VCR to my computer and be smooth.
[10:32] <WaltzingAlong> Sajes: that and the psp gods have not followed you
[10:32] <leperkhanz> it plays fine in tvtime, I tried to do a screencast, but it's super hi res and jumpy.
[10:32] <Sajes> Ah. It's because I skipped some text that looked like an agreement to me.. I never read those.
[10:33] <leperkhanz> is there a video capture program that is easy to use?
[10:33] <Sajes> They should make it in big red letters that say 'THIS IS NOT AN END-USER AGREEMENT!'
[10:34] <IsleVegan> Is there a way to make the effects of "sudo iwconfig wlan0 power on" last beyond a reboot?
[10:34] <leperkhanz> Tried Picasa under wine (no device), cheese (no device), tvtime and screencast, very jumpy and too hires.
[10:34] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, i thought konqueror was a pretty amazing file manager... very integrated and easy to use... but it got really tough throwing data back and forth from external usb storage device. I could send from external hd but not from pclos... it got really complicated
[10:34] <Augustus_Kolya> inteKraged you say>
[10:34] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, plus wireless didn't work and no one could help so, it was easier to reinstall ubuntu
[10:34] <Augustus_Kolya> *inteKrated
[10:35] <livingdaylight> kekeke
[10:35] <Augustus_Kolya> if Ubuntu works just dandy, I see no reason to switch
[10:35] <leperkhanz> i am sad in pants.
[10:35] <Augustus_Kolya> the difference between distros is usually only skin deep
[10:35] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, well, its not perfect either... ^^
[10:35] <leperkhanz> find me a perfect distro.  I will love you forever.  Ubuntu is a really good one though.
[10:36] <overclucker> leperkhanz, LFS!
[10:36] <targetone> hrm, so aplay -l says no soundcard and it's not listed in BIOS. lspci -v lists no soundcard either, wtf?
[10:36] <leperkhanz> lfs?
[10:36] <overclucker> linux from scratch
[10:36] <Augustus_Kolya> I don't Know, this Kubuntu Kould Katch on, it is really Kool, korrekt?
[10:36] <leperkhanz> w, t, f,?: "Why the Fuss?"
[10:36] <Lifeisfunny> yeah, Ubuntu does the user-friendly objective pretty good
[10:36] <livingdaylight> how do i open wireless assistant in root?
[10:37] <leperkhanz> "Why the Failure?"
[10:37] <overclucker> hehe
[10:37] <overclucker> works for me
[10:37] <Sajes> leperkhanz, Don't say that.. I'm about to flash my BIOS.. :(
[10:37] <overclucker> he
[10:37] <targetone> what the f*ck, argh!!!! anyone help?
[10:37] <leperkhanz> Lifeisfunny: Yeah, but I want me some good old fashioned, I can record TV functionality in my Ubuntu.
[10:37] <leperkhanz> *sigh*

[10:38] <overclucker> hehe
[10:38] <Augustus_Kolya> is it just me, or is pretty much every really horrible distro defaulting to KDE?
[10:38] <jvalencia> help with Atheros wireless card
[10:38] <overclucker> hoho
[10:38] <overclucker> haha
[10:38] <leperkhanz> lol, I am not a kde fan either.
[10:38] <Augustus_Kolya> it's like, thats your first sign anymore
[10:39] <nand> jvalencia, what is your pb?
[10:39] <overclucker> that's cause they've modulated xorg7x
[10:40] <jmak642> ok, can someone help me understand what is going on with my grub?
[10:40] <overclucker> jmak642, what is it telling you
[10:40] <overclucker> ?
[10:40] <wikibeens> Hi all. I received a message about IO erros when installing software on W2K under Vmware.
[10:40] <jvalencia> i can't connect to any wirless connection
[10:40] <wikibeens> I then had other problems and had to reboot.
[10:40] <jmak642> a long time ago i sorted it out, i have to tell it to boot from hd (2,0), i just rebooted and now its telling me about somesuch not found, and i edit it back to 0,0 and it works
[10:41] <nand> jvalencia, ok let's see in pm
[10:41] <wikibeens> Now I get only a GRUB command line when rebooting into my machine
[10:41] <jvalencia> I have follow all the step of one thread atheros ar5007eg on satellite u305
[10:41] <jvalencia> but now
[10:41] <jmak642> then fsck says all my disks havent been checked in 1116 days and it checks them all
[10:41] <jvalencia> ubuntu doesn't recognize my wireless card
[10:41] <wikibeens> I've tried using a live disk but it tells me the file system is not known. However, it can read /etc on the disk
[10:41] <overclucker> jmak642, what is going on with your bios?
[10:41] <wikibeens> any assistance with this would be most appreciated
[10:41] <directhex|work> chance of recovering a file from an overwritten ext3 partition?
[10:41] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, there's alot i appreciate about kde... much more centralized and integrated... konqueror is amazing file manager... only thing bothering me is the K-thing
[10:41] <jmak642> overclucker: i havent done anything to my bios
[10:42] <overclucker> k
[10:42] <overclucker> grub is on hdx,x ?
[10:42] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, i prefer how gnome looks by default, but everything is all over the place and doesn't seem as well together
[10:42] <targetone> ugh! i guess i am gonna scrap it. i cannot make any sense of this issue. thanks for the links Ubotu.
[10:42] <livingdaylight> not as seamless
[10:42] <jmak642> well my system has 2 sata disks and 2 ata disks
[10:42] <livingdaylight> and kde4 is gonna be even better
[10:43] <overclucker> good job !ubotu
[10:43] <Augustus_Kolya> livingdaylight: It used to be like that
[10:43] <Augustus_Kolya> Ubuntu fixed GNOME and made it integrate much better
[10:43] <Augustus_Kolya> and that stupid KDE, errr, Microsoft idea, of a file manager/web browser was truly horrible
[10:43] <livingdaylight> still got a long way to go after checking out pclos for a few days, in comparison
[10:44] <Augustus_Kolya> and hopefully in KDE4 you can remove Konqueror and use that, Dolphin or whatever it is
[10:44] <livingdaylight> no, it works
[10:44] <Augustus_Kolya> it looks like they aped Nautilus
[10:44] <jmak642> overclucker: and it seems like it disks numeration to grub is always jumpin around.  the bios is set to boot off sata 1, and linux sees ata 1 and 2 as sda and sdb, and sata 1 and 2 and sdc and sdd
[10:44] <jmak642> and only grub gets shifty on me
[10:44] <overclucker> sdc1 is root?
[10:45] <thedash> does rsync work over smb connections ?
[10:45] <jmak642> overclucker: sdc is root
[10:45] <Augustus_Kolya> well, Kubuntu leaves you with, KONQUEROR, no Firefox or anything by default
[10:45] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, that's what they need to do.. Ape Gnome looks and keep kde funktionality
[10:45] <Augustus_Kolya> I booted it up and I was like "You're kidding me, right?"
[10:45] <centyx> gnome ftw.
[10:46] <centyx> :P
[10:46] <jvalencia> nand
[10:46] <jvalencia> any ideas?
[10:46] <Augustus_Kolya> so Ubuntu has decided to put in two incompatible browsers, depending on which version of their OS you get
[10:46] <nand> jvalencia, you didn't answer my questions in pm...
[10:46] <Augustus_Kolya> and whats worse is that it's Konqueror
[10:46] <jvalencia> which one
[10:46] <jmak642> overclucker: any recomendations?
[10:47] <overclucker> are you moving the disks around?
[10:47] <nand> jvalencia, i read you in pm. You don't read me?
[10:47] <jvalencia> no i don't
[10:47] <jmak642> overclucker: no i havent opened it up in months, prolly got a whole dustbunny farm in there
[10:47] <nand> lol strange Oo
[10:48] <dgjones> nand, jvalencia have you both registered your nicks?
[10:48] <nand> no
[10:48] <jvalencia> just did that
[10:48] <nand> ok i should register then
[10:48] <jmak642> overclucker: its really strange because i didnt make any changes, i shut down about 40 minutes ago and booted up after like 15 or 20 and then dealt with fsck and this grub smack
[10:48] <dgjones> nand, you need to register for pm's
[10:48] <dgjones> !register | nand
[10:48] <Ubotu> nand: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[10:48] <nand> ok i will
[10:48] <jmak642> overclucker: i did install some updates from synaptic
[10:49] <overclucker> did grub update?
[10:50] <overclucker> i kno that when i've updated grub, it has always reset (hd0,0) to (hd1,0), the little stinker. . .
[10:50] <jmak642> overclucker: thats the thing when i booted it was looking for hd2,0
[10:51] <jmak642> overclucker: i dont see that it updated in the history
[10:51] <overclucker> right now i'm not using te grub from repos
[10:51] <overclucker> compiled from source
[10:51] <josiah> k9copy failes at the beginning of read... am i missing some codecs or something? I followed the !dvd. Got libdvd3read
[10:51] <lnx_> why ntfs-3g mount my ntfs drivers on the desktop ?
[10:51] <overclucker> updates won't touch it
[10:52] <jmak642> overclucker: i think the thing for me to do is just put 2 entries in my grub configuration so i can just choose the other if the primary doesnt work.
[10:52] <jmak642> overclucker: can you remind me where that blasted grub conf file is?
[10:52] <overclucker> jmak642, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:52] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, for example i've added external hd to bring in my folders and i'd like to be able to right click on a folder and see 'move' or 'copy' to, option like in konqueror, but i don't
[10:52] <jmak642> overclucker: thanks
[10:53] <overclucker> jmak642, cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/oldmenu.lst
[10:53] <livingdaylight> is it gksudo to open apps as root?
[10:53] <dgjones> lnx_, is it mounting them to desktop, or is it just a link to them? normally nautilus puts a link to mounted removable media on the desktop
[10:53] <livingdaylight> sudo and gksudo?
[10:54] <overclucker> livingdaylight, gk is for gtk+ apps, sudo for console
[10:54] <jmak642> overclucker: the "savedefault" entry is what determines the default or just the first entry?
[10:54] <Augustus_Kolya> cut/paste
[10:54] <livingdaylight> overclucker, thx
[10:54] <overclucker> default
[10:55] <leperkhanz> Ok, I installed mythtv, now how do I record a show?
[10:55] <quique_> hi
[10:55] <leperkhanz> lol
[10:55] <wikibeens> !register | wikibeens
[10:55] <centyx> bleh.
[10:55] <overclucker> jmak642, browse through menu.lst, i belive there is an option in there to not overwrite old values
[10:56] <overclucker> aka(hd2,0)
[10:56] <lnx_> how i can unmount all the ntfs drivers that have been mounted with ntfs-3g ?
[10:57] <ro> hi
[10:57] <lnx_> dgjones , its mount one of them ( the windows D )
[10:58] <dgjones> lnx_, do you not want the drive mounted at all, or just not the icon/link on your desktop
[10:58] <jmak642> overclucker: i see alot of options
[10:58] <lnx_> dgjones , i just dont want them to have icon on desktop
[10:59] <andie> help
[10:59] <overclucker> jmak642, i think it's either # lockold=true or # updatedefaultentry=false
[10:59] <Sajes> Anyone know how to recover data from a floppy if it's been accidentally deleted?
[10:59] <jmak642> overclucker: i think that updatedefaultentry=false?
[10:59] <rommelandrea> hi!
[10:59] <overclucker> that's my bet
[11:00] <toogodoo> if i install ubuntu and it dont install right...to return to normal is all i gotta do is to resize my drive to eat up the linux stuff then edit the boot.ini to eliminate reference to linux and thats all, right!!!???
[11:00] <rommelandrea> sorry for my english but i'm italina
[11:00] <Sajes> Oh, by the way, My BIOS was the latest version.. No need to flash it. Still doesn't address my problem lol.
[11:00] <rommelandrea> I would get a internet site
[11:00] <jmak642> overclucker: what does the "savedefault" entry in the kernel options do?
[11:01] <leperkhanz> what apps use libgnome-speech?
[11:01] <Sajes> toogodoo, or you could just format your linux partition..
[11:01] <dgjones> lnx_, in a terminal window, type "gconf-editor" without the quotes, and find the applications section, in that find Nautilus, and then Desktop, there should be a setting called "volumes visible" which is checked, if you uncheck it, the volumes will still be mounted, just not shown on the desktop
[11:01] <overclucker> i have no clue
[11:01] <overclucker> lol
[11:01] <rommelandrea> i have try with wget http://sitename.it/* but it's not possible
[11:01] <jmak642> overclucker: i guess i should man grub
[11:02] <overclucker> not useful, lol i just did
[11:02] <jmak642> haha
[11:03] <lnx_> dgjones , i have no this program gconf-editor ( im kde user )
[11:03] <overclucker> it's probably # updatedefaultentry=false
[11:03] <jmak642> overclucker: but that just keeps updates from overwriting my entries right?
[11:03] <overclucker> correct
[11:03] <jmak642> overclucker: i dont think i got an update
[11:04] <overclucker> hmm
[11:04] <jmak642> overclucker: it looks like something went haywire, all the sudden grub started seeing sdc at 0,0
[11:04] <jmak642> overclucker: instead of 2,0
[11:04] <dgjones> lnx_, in that case, i don't know, i don';t use kde, i was assuming you used gnome, presumably there's a similar application though
[11:06] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, any other hot tips? :D
[11:07] <overclucker> jmak642, i dunno what to tell you, but keep your eyes open for unidentified variables. . .
[11:07] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, installed Deluge and ready to put it to use :p
[11:07] <jmak642> overclucker: i'm gonna hassle the people in #grub and see if they know anything
[11:07] <overclucker> he
[11:08] <overclucker> i wanna hear. . .
[11:08] <Augustus_Kolya> yeah, make sure it's using Protocol Encryption, random ports, and Full Allocation
[11:08] <livingdaylight> *gulp....
[11:11] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, for up and download speeds can i leave default if not sure?
[11:11] <thedash> bleh, I have a smb share visible and writeable, but I can't remember my password and such for it, would that be stored anywhere ?
[11:12] <Augustus_Kolya> yeah
[11:12] <Augustus_Kolya> should be fine
[11:13] <Augustus_Kolya> worst that could happen, you see it running too slow
[11:13] <Augustus_Kolya> and tweak it later
[11:13] <livingdaylight> ok
[11:13] <livingdaylight> sure
[11:13] <blackest> does anyone know how to get wireless channels 12 and 13 to work in managed mode in ubuntu

[11:25] <hype_> hi there
[11:25] <bullgard4> randr states 'Physical' = 332 x 212mm although my rule measures 332 x 205 mm. In what file can I correct the y value permanently?
[11:25] <ziggystar> Hi. Is the following sentence correct English? "This can be compensated for by doing this and that."
[11:25] <hype_> is anyone using a saitek eclipse keyboard ? http://www.saitekusa.com/USA/prod/eclipse.htm  Just wondering if its working on linux.
[11:25] <bullgard4> ziggystar:
[11:26] <hype_> ziggystar , "by doing", not "for by"
[11:26] <bullgard4> ziggystar: Yes. But my mother's language is not English.
[11:26] <ziggystar> Isn't the meaning of "to compensate for" slightly different than "to compensate"?
[11:27] <sauvin> ziggystar, there's a problem with the preposition's placement.
[11:27] <bullgard4> ziggystar: Yes, there is a minute difference.
[11:28] <ziggystar> Hmmm. Somehow I thin I should use the version with "for".
[11:28] <ziggystar> But I'm not sure if I can write it that way.
[11:28] <benpicco> Hi, I at the only linux pc in a windows network, all have the same hardware, but while the other clients get up to 100kb/s (even up to 700kb/s when using parallel downloads) i only get ~20kb/s and often downloads even stop because of a timeout - what could cause this?
[11:28] <sauvin> "the probem can be addressed by doing so and such".
[11:28] <SmileyRL> I wanna  manually edit the partition table. But how do i divide 100gb?
[11:28] <ziggystar> I need to use compensate.
[11:29] <dWho> hi anyone found a way for cmi8X soundcard to work with ubuntu edgy/feisty/etc?
[11:29] <benpicco> does out proxy just hate other os?
[11:29] <ziggystar> I don't know if I have to use the version without "for" or if what I wrote is correct English.
[11:29] <jmak642> overclucker: thanks for your help man
[11:29] <ziggystar> Any native speaker here?
[11:29] <overclucker> no prob, i was curious of what it was
[11:30] <xptical> Can I use a Ubuntu CD to check the integrity of a hard drive?  Kinda like Memtest checks memory?  I have a possible failing laptop hard drive.
[11:30] <Ciorapel> Hello. I have a partition ext3 on my /dev/hda3 , and after every restart when I double click the partition It promts for my administrator password, and I can't write anything on it. How do I make a normal partition out of that ?
[11:30] <ziggystar> @xptical Yes you can.
[11:30] <overclucker> ziggystar, sounds fine to me(;

[11:31] <jmak642> overclucker: i am not sure he's right, like i said if what he said was true the disks would have just incremented 0,0 becoming 1,0 and 2,0 becoming 3,0, but there is alot of wiggle room for intel/pheonix to make me eat my words
[11:31] <dWho> i found this modules snd-cmipci ... tried modprobe with no errors except sound still not detected... ubuntu seems to detect only the default sound card to be specific only the built-in card
[11:31] <xptical> How?
[11:31] <A2t3c13> im config localpurge in my terminal, HOW do i make a selection say like a box mark?
[11:32] <jmak642> overclucker: for now i think i just wont reboot until gutsy comes out
[11:32] <A2t3c13> if i highlight the box and press enter it wont let me go on
[11:32] <xptical> I know FSCK works for a linux partition...what command checks the hard drive for errors?
[11:32] <overclucker> jmak642, lol
[11:33] <ziggystar> fsck does also work for other types of partitions.
[11:33] <A2t3c13> do i press a letter when i highlight the box? WHAT LETTER?
[11:33] <sauvin> I think he's asking for a surface check.
[11:33] <ziggystar> You can specify the type by writing fsck.vfat e.g.
[11:33] <xptical> yeah, the disk is currently unpartitioned
[11:33] <dWho> anyone found a way to make ubuntu detects the new sound pci sound card?
[11:33] <xptical> and WinXP fails to install on it
[11:33] <xptical> so I think the drive may have a few bad sectors
[11:34] <A2t3c13> HOW DO I MAKE A SELECTION ON A TERMINAL INTERFACE???
[11:34] <xptical> ir just be failing outright
[11:34] <shal3r> I am unable to use wireless on ubuntu 6.

[11:34] <Ciorapel> I have a partition ext3 on my /dev/hda3 , and after every restart when I double click the partition It promts for my administrator password, and I can't write anything on it. How do I make a normal partition out of that ?
[11:35] <jmak642> Ciorapel: edit /etc/fstab and put "user" in the options for that mountpoint
[11:36] <Ciorapel> ok ..I try now
[11:36] <jmak642> Ciorapel: do not do that if your root partition is on hda3
[11:36] <Ciorapel> no is not :)
[11:36] <jmak642> Ciorapel: because everyone that logs in can delete your bootloader or something terrible
[11:36] <A2t3c13> HOW DO I MAKE A SELECTION ON A TERMINAL INTERFACE?
[11:36] <A2t3c13> PLEASE
[11:36] <Ciorapel> And it will be writable after that ?
[11:37] <A2t3c13> WHAT DO I FUCKING PRESS TO MAKE A SELECTION INSIDE A TERMINAL???
[11:37] <MindSpark> hi, I am using xubuntu edgy and I want to change the resolution, I am currently using 1024x768 and want to switch to 1280x1024, but the display settings simply don't have this resolution as an option, any ideas ?
[11:37] <Lamego> A2t3c13, please lower your CAPS LOCK
[11:37] <overclucker> A2t3c13, terminal works fine
[11:37] <MindSpark> A2t3c13, if you don't have gpm or something that allows you to use your mouse on a terminal, that won't be easy
[11:37] <jmak642> Ciorapel: yeah, by default only root can write to a partition
[11:37] <Lamego> A2t3c13, you must install the gpm package
[11:38] <jmak642> Ciorapel: by putting user in the options you say that users can edit data on there by default
[11:38] <MindSpark> if you're talking about X terminal, then you might want to ctrl-shift-c
[11:38] <Ciorapel> Oh .. and I have to manually mount it by double click it every boot
[11:38] <jmak642> Ciorapel: put auto in there too
[11:38] <A2t3c13> what do i press to make a selection to configure my localpurge?
[11:38] <Wieter> Hi guys
[11:38] <MindSpark> A2t3c13, what's localpurge ?
[11:39] <overclucker> !localpurge
[11:39] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about localpurge - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:39] <Ciorapel> jmak642: what is the command for editing /etc/fstab ? :D (I'm noobie)
[11:39] <overclucker> durr
[11:39] <MindSpark> heh
[11:39] <jmak642> Ciorapel: i'd prolly use gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[11:39] <overclucker> gksu gedit
[11:39] <overclucker> lol
[11:40] <Ciorapel> My partition is not there :)
[11:40] <Ciorapel> /hda3/
[11:40] <MindSpark> ok, how do I change resolution ?
[11:40] <MindSpark> can anyone help me out here ?
[11:40] <A2t3c13> okay there are abunch of selections usually i highlight it and press enter and it works when i come to something like this before in terminal
[11:40] <jmak642> Ciorapel: this is a good string to use for your options rw,auto,user,exec,async,errors=remount-ro 0
[11:40] <MindSpark> A2t3c13, can you please explain
[11:40] <MindSpark> what you are trying to do ?
[11:40] <A2t3c13> if i try it now it just skips out of it
[11:40] <jmak642> Ciorapel: then you have to add it, but i forget the command to look up the uuid for the partition
[11:41] <MindSpark> jmak642, hdparm
[11:41] <MindSpark> ?
[11:41] <Ciorapel> If you can, tell me exactly how to write that file ... :) .. Told you i'm a noob :D

[11:42] <penguincentral> hi
[11:42] <A2t3c13> im trying to pick the languages that are left behind in my system i installed purge and it is going to dump all the goofy language files i will never need therfore giving me more space
[11:42] <MindSpark> oh, uuid for a partition can be found in the /sys or /proc dirs
[11:42] <Ciorapel> overclucker: and UUID ?

[11:51] <hetauma> of course I'm not skipping a major release
[11:51] <Ciorapel> Thanx a lot jmak642 !!!!
[11:51] <jmak642> then make sure the folder /media/hda3 exists, if not create it as root
[11:51] <Frogzoo> hetauma: how did you manage to miss the bit about gutsy being alpha and unsupported?
[11:51] <overclucker> heh
[11:52] <jmak642> Ciorapel: then do sudo mount /dev/hda3
[11:52] <dure> 
[11:52] <hetauma> Frogzoo: we are just one month away from the release... it won't be that bad :D
[11:52] <overclucker> yes it will

[11:53] <hetauma> kk sorry
[11:53] <overclucker> hmmm
[11:53] <overclucker> i wonder who originally came up with the idea of pastebin

[11:59] <shal3r> nothing usefull there

[12:01] <panny> how do i stop it?
[12:01] <Ciorapel> No
[12:01] <anton111> no
[12:01] <overclucker> panny, ctrl-c
[12:01] <panny> i can only stop it by killing it in system monitor
[12:01] <panny> ah cool
[12:01] <panny> cheers
[12:01] <panny> :-)
[12:01] <overclucker> and to continuue wget -c
[12:02] <overclucker> (not related to ctrl-c)
[12:02] <jmak642> Ciorapel: is there anything on the partition? have you run fsck on it?  i can only think it is getting errors on mount and remounting read only
[12:03] <overclucker> ciorapel pastebin fdisk -l
[12:03] <Ciorapel> jmak642: I formatted the partition and the lost+found dir appeard. That's all.
[12:03] <Ciorapel> One moment
[12:04] <overclucker> !paste
[12:04] <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)
[12:04] <dgjones> Ciorapel, who owns the partition? is it root or your user?

[12:04] <Ciorapel> dgjones: 5 minutes ago I put it to user
[12:05] <Augustus_Kolya> livingdaylight: welcome
[12:05] <livingdaylight> its sooooo fast!
[12:05] <dgjones> Ciorapel, i had the same thing last night setting up automounting of a partition that was owned by root, after i'd chmod'd the partition i had rw access from command line, but not from nautilus, i had to reboot so that nautilus picked up the partition changes properly
[12:06] <overclucker> Ciorapel, sudo chmod -R 0777 /media/hda3
[12:06] <Ciorapel> dgjones: I rebooted million tims
[12:06] <shal3r> I am unable to use wireless on ubuntu 6. I see my wireless card in ifconfig and i can configure it via ifconfig or ubuntu networking tool, but have this error in dmesg: "wlan0: link is not ready". My wireless PCI card is Realtek RTL8185L (module r818x). What i can try to solve this?
[12:06] <n2Ob> anyone???
[12:07] <Ciorapel> Omg. It works
[12:07] <Ciorapel> Thanx a ton !
[12:07] <jmak642> overclucker: you win

[12:07] <overclucker> nooga, Ciorapel wins
[12:07] <overclucker> doh!
[12:07] <overclucker> no,
[12:07] <livingdaylight> Guys... Deluge is one sweet app.... sweeeeeeet...
[12:08] <jmak642> Ciorapel: you can change the mount point to something like /home/ciorapel/smut if you want to keep your filesystem looking chipper
[12:08] <jmak642> dang he left
[12:08] <vreer> n2Ob: google gives several options ...
[12:08] <penguincentral> jmak642: such as life...
[12:08] <shal3r> I hate ubuntu.
[12:08] <nanonyme> change your distro and channel?
[12:09] <incorrect> if i was to compile an c app, would i expect it to be an elf binary or an a.out?
[12:09] <shal3r> nandemonai, i am using gentoo for last 4 years, but today i need to setup two ubuntu workstations for one office
[12:09] <shal3r> and there isn`t anyone who can help with wifi
[12:09] <gnuskool> shal3r: so you need help or no?
[12:10] <jmak642> shal3r: are you using ndiswrapper?
[12:10] <shal3r> gnuskool, yes. i am asking there two days, every 10-15 minutes and nobody gives any hints
[12:10] <shal3r> jmak642, no
[12:10] <panny> is edubuntu available as an alternate install?

[12:15] <Ubotu> MonsieurBon: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:16] <MonsieurBon> jmak642, do you know, where I find the UUID for my partition?
[12:16] <overclucker> !pottymouth | MonsieurBon
[12:16] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pottymouth - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:17] <MonsieurBon> predaeus, yeah i know and I'm sorry. I just think it's weird that ubuntu get's preinstalled on PC and is made user friendly and then something like that happens
[12:17] <overclucker> ubotu, you need to expand your vocabulary
[12:17] <Layer8> is it possible to have a second monitor connected to my laptop using a different resolution for it?
[12:17] <dgjones> !uuid | MonsieurBon
[12:17] <Ubotu> MonsieurBon: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  sudo blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[12:17] <shal3r> What`s best way to install any package while i am on ubuntu6 livecd? Can i write *.deb files to USB stick and then install them on livecd?
[12:17] <dfmr_> dzien dobry
[12:17] <predaeus> MonsieurBon, sudo blkid
[12:17] <jmak642> MonsieurBon: run blkid to get the uuid
[12:18] <MonsieurBon> dgjones, predaeus, thx
[12:18] <overclucker> shal3r, maybe a jail
[12:18] <silentmind> I'm thinking of buying this wireless card :  http://www.maplin.co.uk/module.aspx?ModuleNo=219511&doy=12m9 , could someone please confirm if it's the same one listed on the compatibility list here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBelkin
[12:18] <predaeus> MonsieurBon, I know, I've got the same problem and have to fix it on every update because I don't know either where the wrong config is persistent.
[12:18] <Plantain> Hey, I can find a module in menuconfig with search, but when I go there I can't see it, I think it's because it's got a "NETDEVICES=y" next to it in search, but I'm not sure, can anyone help?
[12:18] <jmak642> MonsieurBon: you can edit the /boot/grun/menu.lst file and remote the # in front of updatedefaultentry=false
[12:18] <shal3r> overclucker, what?
[12:18] <jmak642> predaeus: you too
[12:18] <overclucker> !jail
[12:18] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jail - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:18] <overclucker> boo
[12:18] <overclucker> chroot
[12:18] <jmak642> except you need to put grub instead of grun
[12:19] <predaeus> jmak642, ah ok, thanks
[12:19] <MonsieurBon> jmak642, well but that entry needs to be updated if there's a new kernel, doesn't it?
[12:19] <Plantain> Found it...
[12:19] <dgjones> silentmind, if you're not sure, have a look at www.linuxemporium.co.uk, they sell wireless cards aimed at working with linux, they may have one you can be certain of
[12:19] <jmak642> MonsieurBon: yep, so if you don't want grub to tinker with it, you cant have it both ways
[12:19] <shwouchk> yo
[12:20] <shwouchk> what the fuck? I updates lighttpd by a minor version and the config got screwed
[12:20] <silentmind> dgjones: thanks! but I'm in a bind and need to buy a card now
[12:20] <jmak642> MonsieurBon: when you get a kernel rev update you just have to edit the file and add an entry for the new kernel
[12:20] <shwouchk> updated*
[12:20] <shal3r> what`s name for ubuntu 6.0.6? edgy?
[12:20] <shwouchk> shal3r: yes

[12:20] <dgjones> silentmind, Belkin's change, i've got 3 different pcmcia cards with the same model number, 2 work but need ndiswrapper, the other works out of the box
[12:20] <predaeus> !ohmy | shwouchk
[12:20] <Ubotu> shwouchk: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:21] <MonsieurBon> reboot
[12:21] <MonsieurBon> cu
[12:21] <dgjones> shal3r, 6.06 is dapper, 6.1 is edgy, 7.04 is fiesty
[12:21] <silentmind> dgjones: looks like I'll just have to bite the bullet, thanks
[12:21] <dgjones> silentmind, i think when i bought from linux... it was next day delivery if that help
[12:22] <jmak642> what is the best wireless card to get if you hate your pos realtek wifi card?
[12:22] <odoaliu> hi
[12:23] <shwouchk> oh nm it just placed a file which was now loaded as default
[12:23] <shwouchk> :)
[12:23] <overclucker> jmak642, linus suggests intel, but any aetheros would be better
[12:23] <shwouchk> byebye then
[12:23] <gs246> how to check my GID and UID on network drive?
[12:23] <Augustus_Kolya> yeah, well that might be a problem since intel wireless is only on laptops with Intel processors and Intel graphics
[12:24] <overclucker> intel = open drivers
[12:24] <Augustus_Kolya> which I will be damned if I use any of that
[12:24] <dgjones> jmak642, atheros seems to work otb for pcmcia cards from my experience
[12:24] <overclucker> hehe
[12:24] <Augustus_Kolya> Broadcom is doable but tricky

[12:30] <Parkin_131234234> :(
[12:30] <gogeta> at least the standerd mode is working
[12:30] <dgjones> cherva, could be a faulty cd, or livecd thats not working with the hardware, have you also tried the alternate install cd, or maybe a copy of ubuntu 6.06 that might work
[12:30] <gogeta> bit it will not switch to hd
[12:30] <Parkin_131234234> that was working earlier :(
[12:31] <Parkin_131234234> does ANYONE know how to get 1366 working on ATI?

[12:32] <Parkin_131234234> bad idea :/
[12:32] <gogeta> i think you need to do a manule setup
[12:32] <gogeta> and im no hd expert
[12:32] <Parkin_131234234> i think i will have to resort to the lowest of low life skum
[12:32] <gogeta> lol
[12:32] <Parkin_131234234> sign my life away
[12:33] <Parkin_131234234> to bill

[12:33] <dgjones> !enter | Parkin_131234234
[12:33] <Ubotu> Parkin_131234234: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:34] <gogeta> over man i tryed every trick i knoe for him
[12:34] <gogeta> i think its the driver
[12:34] <gogeta> go figure
[12:35] <Parkin_131234234> I really think it is still some deep rooted configuration problem, i bet its just one tiny line of code in the right place which would make it work properly.
[12:35] <overclucker> i heard theres a possibinlty  of ati going open for their drivers. . .
[12:36] <livingdaylight> is it still not possible to customize each workspace differently in gnome?
[12:37] <Xero> livingdaylight, try wallpapoz
[12:37] <Xero> you'll have to get it somewhere besides an ubuntu repo though.
[12:38] <livingdaylight> Xero, wallpapoz sucks resources... in kde one can configure each workspace without wallpapoz...
[12:38] <Xero> livingdaylight, then use the K desktop manager with the GNOME panel. I've seen it done, just not beautifully.
[12:39] <livingdaylight> Xero, would be great to see more configurability in gnome ....
[12:39] <Xero> livingdaylight, yes it would.
[12:39] <Sevk> any software like Downloader for X ?
[12:39] <overclucker> tribe7 hehe
[12:39] <Frank_> how do i disable the login at startup?
[12:39] <Xero> Sevk, try FlashGot for Linux.
[12:40] <Xero> Erm, Firefox.
[12:40] <Sevk> OK
[12:40] <shal3r> jmak642, ok, i installed ndiswrapper and loaded *.inf driver for my card and it`s showing up in ndiswrapper -l. what to do now?
[12:40] <Xero> Frank_, system>administration>login window
[12:40] <Sevk> I like it in windows:    www.xunlei.com
[12:40] <Frank_> thx
[12:40] <Xero> you should be able, in one of those tabs, put your username in a box and it will auto login you.
[12:40] <cherva> a frend of mine want to install ubuntu on a Seagate SATA 2 HDD but the livecd ot 7.04 doesn't want to boot it hangs when the ubuntu logo comes up any suggestions ?

[12:41] <overclucker> cherva, reburn the cd
[12:41] <Xero> I've had faulty discs before. The one I installed from had no icons anywhere.

[01:06] <contessa> hhp21 ?
[01:07] <hhp21> "dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run dpkg --configure -a to correct the problem"
[01:07] <hhp21> So I do that
[01:07] <Mohd> I have a problem, sound is no longer working not in Youtube not in Rythmbox I can't even play music. I think i screwed things up. Help.

[01:07] <hhp21> I have 32 updates waiting to be installed
[01:07] <hhp21> it's been like this forever, I've rebooted it a thousand times.
[01:07] <GuHHH> hi can i use 32bits apps on 64 bits arch?
[01:08] <GuHHH> hhp21: why that?
[01:08] <ikonia> GuHHH its not very easy to do so
[01:08] <contessa> hhp21 ...reboot ..and THEN run dpkg --configure  ..without touching the packet manager
[01:08] <hhp21> GuHHH: Why what?
[01:08] <hhp21> I didn't touch the package manager, I was running sudo apt-get update, that's the only way I could get the error.
[01:08] <hhp21> Synaptic just freezes
[01:08] <GuHHH> why so many reboots? you only need one.
[01:09] <contessa> GuHHH  ...you need to install a chroot
[01:09] <hhp21> GuHHH: over a period of time from swapping hardware
[01:09] <Mohd> I have a problem, sound is no longer working not in Youtube not in Rythmbox I can't even play music. I think i screwed things up. Help.
[01:09] <alx_> hi all
[01:10] <alx_> I've a problem with grub and dual boot...
[01:10] <alx_> may someone help me ?
[01:10] <alx_> basically I can't find where to install grub, and how to configure the grub entry to boot xp
[01:10] <hhp21> contessa: Do you have any idea what it might be?
[01:10] <contessa> alx_  ... maybe ...grins ... I just wasted a day playing with a machine that didnt want to know about 32 bit windoz
[01:10] <alx_> the standard installation of ubuntu make things wrong
[01:11] <contessa> hhp21 .... you MUST reboot ... and then run dpkg --configure as root in a terminal ... BEFORE you do anything else
[01:11] <alx_> contessa : I once obtained to start grub and load the linux kernel
[01:11] <hhp21> Any other instructions before I do that?
[01:11] <alx_> but that install failed to start winXP
[01:11] <contessa> um ... no
[01:11] <hhp21> okay
[01:12] <alx_> NOW I'm in a situation where if I FIXBOOT/FIXMBR with XP CD XP starts
[01:12] <contessa> alx ... set up the partitions using linux ...then install Xp ..then install linux
[01:12] <alx_> contessa: can't do, there are 3 HD full of DATA....
[01:12] <toogodoo> aloha
[01:12] <DGMurdockIII> anyone wear crocs or clogs?
[01:12] <contessa> alx .... then install the OS on a fourth hd  ...
[01:12] <Mohd> I have a problem, sound is no longer working not in Youtube not in Rythmbox I can't even play music. I think i screwed things up. Help.
[01:13] <ikonia> DGMurdockIII this is a support only channel
[01:13] <ikonia> Mohd what did you do before it stopped working
[01:13] <contessa> Mohd ..have you tried reinstalling ALSA ?
[01:13] <DGMurdockIII> anyone wear crocs or clogs?
[01:13] <alx_> contessa: the os is already installed, now I'm with a live chrooted into it
[01:13] <alx_> trying to figure out where's the grub problem
[01:13] <Mohd> Ikonia I don't remember, Asound.conf perhaps?
[01:13] <ikonia> DGMurdockIII this channel is for ubuntu support discussion only, please take offtopic disucsion to #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:14] <Mohd> Contessa: How can that be done?
[01:14] <contessa> alx ..can you get into the boot partition ?
[01:14] <alx_> contessa: yes
[01:14] <AndrewB> DGMurdockIII: see pm
[01:14] <contessa> can you get at /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[01:14] <ikonia> alx_ what do you get when you boot the PC ?
[01:14] <aidan> anyone know a tool to pull the images from a PDF file?
[01:14] <alx_> ikonia: now just the write  GRUB
[01:15] <contessa> pdfimage ?>
[01:15] <AndrewB> aidan: pdfedit might do it..
[01:15] <alx_> maybe I did a wrong root (hd0,3) setup (hd1) command before
[01:15] <ikonia> alx_ you just see the word "grub"
[01:15] <alx_> ikonia: NOW yes
[01:15] <ikonia> alx_ setup is normally your first boot drive (hd0)
[01:15] <alx_> this PC boots form the second HD
[01:15] <ikonia> alx_ and "root" is where your /boot directory is
[01:15] <contessa> hd9,1
[01:16] <contessa> hd0,1
[01:16] <DGMurdockIII> then can you tell me where i can fin a crocs linx distro
[01:16] <alx_> ok, so root (hd0,3) is right
[01:16] <ikonia> DGMurdockIII Last request - please, this channel is for ubuntu support requests ONLY
[01:16] <alx_> and setup (hd1) is the MBR of the second HD which is where the bios points to
[01:16] <AndrewB> DGMurdockIII: try asking in ##linux
[01:16] <ikonia> alx_ that sounds reasonable
[01:16] <alx_> I'll try again
[01:17] <Mohd> Ikonia, I have been playing with the sound options to fix youtube no sound issue. I edited asound.confg and firefox file. That's all. I tried to set up a pulse driver server but I didn't know how to do that correctly. Any of those might affected my sound device?
[01:17] <ikonia> Mohd firegox file ?
[01:17] <chuxxsss> every time I install nvidia legacy they change to a newer one
[01:17] <ikonia> firefox file ?
[01:17] <Mohd> Ikonia: Firefoxc
[01:17] <clip> in which path do i find ffmpeg configure, when i installed with apt-get
[01:17] <ikonia> Mohd first thing to do is look at your sound mixers
[01:18] <ikonia> Mohd see if anything stands out
[01:18] <alx_> ikonia, contessa: rebooting... if things goes fine "Thanks in advance", if not... well, I'll come back here :-P
[01:18] <ikonia> feeding time
[01:18] <alx_> bye
[01:18] <alx_> (for now)
[01:18] <phogg> clip: Eh? ffmpeg's configure script is only for building it. For a binary insall you don't need it
[01:19] <chuxxsss> anyone
[01:19] <Mohd> Ikonia I have USB headset that has its OWN sound card. Ubuntu works perfectly with it i can see (Logitech USB headset (ASLA Mixer) and according to Ubuntu, its connected and should working properly.)
[01:19] <Mohd> Alsa mixer*
[01:20] <clip> phogg: ah, ok. but i get an error: that the ffmpeg heeaders are not found, and that a should make sure that i bult ffmpeg with --enable-shared for shared libs
[01:20] <Pici> clip: if you are trying to compile something that requires ffmpeg, you need an ffmpeg -dev package.
[01:21] <phogg> clip: if you installed a binary package for ffmpeg then you have no contorl over that. If you want the ffmpeg headers install the ffmpeg dev package.
[01:21] <clip> ok thx
[01:21] <gnuskool> Mohd: did youy backup the file you changed asound? if not do you remember the changes you made?
[01:21] <chuxxsss> every time I install nvidia legacy they change to a newer one
[01:21] <Ayabara> how can I check what resolution is output to my monitor?
[01:21] <Mohd> gnuskool, I created that file, i didn't have it before.
[01:22] <joejaxx> Ayabara: run: xrandr
[01:22] <contessa> chuxxsss: everytime I install nvidia-glx  they install nvidia-legacy ..I guess the system knows what it is doing
[01:22] <joejaxx> Ayabara: the one with the asterisk is the current resolution
[01:22] <Mohd> gnuskool, I have reinstalled Alsa " sudo aptitude install alsa-oss" and didn't work yet.
[01:23] <chuxxsss> no
[01:23] <DexterF> hi
[01:23] <Ayabara> joejaxx: thanks a lot. that showed only one screen, though I have another one connected to the docking station on my laptop. hmm.
[01:23] <chuxxsss> all I what is the nvidia driver to run opengl in KDE
[01:23] <joejaxx> Ayabara: ah
[01:24] <hhp21> Who was helping me with dpkg-configure?
[01:24] <gnuskool> Mohd: do you have the link to the tutorial you are using to install pulse?
[01:25] <Mohd> gnuskool, one minute.
[01:25] <joejaxx> Ayabara: try --screen screennumhere
[01:25] <chuxxsss> It is upseting when you have to gdm stop the display system to fix the problem
[01:25] <joejaxx> Ayabara: i do not have dual screen so i cannot test that
[01:25] <joejaxx> hold on bbl
[01:25] <hhp21> Guyyss I need help with this so bad.
[01:25] <chuxxsss> contessa: any ideas
[01:25] <hhp21> contessa
[01:26] <hhp21> that's who was helping me
[01:26] <Mohd> gnuskool, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_setup_PulseAudio_Sound_Server
[01:26] <hhp21> You told me to reboot and then run sudo dpkg --configure
[01:26] <chuxxsss> sorry
[01:26] <hhp21> it spit out that --configure needs at least 1 argument
[01:26] <hhp21> so I did -a
[01:26] <hhp21> and it froze again.
[01:27] <phogg> clip: do not /msg without asking first!
[01:27] <Mohd> gnuskool, I'd suspect that its from the codecs. But i installed most of the sound codecs.
[01:27] <phogg> clip: private conversations are selfish.
[01:28] <hhp21> contessa?
[01:29] <clip> phogg: i didn't wan't to bother the others
[01:29] <chuxxsss> bye all
[01:29] <contessa> am looking it bup
[01:29] <hhp21> bah
[01:29] <hhp21> I have to go
[01:31] <Dave__> is there anyway to reset all the graphic setting ive changes? or atleast most of them?
[01:31] <gnuskool> Mohd: did sound work before you installed this?
[01:32] <phogg> clip: if you ask in a private message you limit your chances of getting help. Worse, if you ask in a private message others with similar problems do not benefit from the answer.
[01:32] <abc[defence] > hello,all
[01:32] <Mohd> gnuskool: Yes, it worked. But it didn't work on flash movies like Youtube. So I tried to play with it to make Youtube sounds work. And it seemed what i did made it go worse :(
[01:32] <Mohd> gnuskool : I don't know if its from the PulseAudio.
[01:33] <contessa> night all
[01:33] <phogg> clip: as it happens in this case I cannot help you. So now where are you? Back to asking in the channel, but after wasting time.
[01:33] <penguincentral> hi.  does anyone know how to move directories using the terminal??
[01:33] <Mohd> gnuskool : I edited this file aswell using "sudo gedit /etc/environment"
[01:33] <gnuskool> Mohd: if you type killall pulse audio, then try play sound you know if its some other problem or something caused by pulse
[01:34] <Mohd> "$ killall PulseAudio   $PulseAudio: no process killed"
[01:35] <Pici> Mohd: its case sensitive, probably all lowercase
[01:36] <mccall> ver irc.kolumbus.fi
[01:36] <GuHHH> ps ax |grep pulse
[01:37] <GuHHH> then killall (app)
[01:38] <Mohd> gnuskool : I think the problem is that I edited this file "gksudo gedit /etc/asound.conf" Not from the pulseaudio
[01:38] <Trini_Man> how do i fix this error
[01:38] <Trini_Man> could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[01:38] <Trini_Man> its with synaptic package manager
[01:38] <gnuskool> Mohd: more likely a flash and firefox problem, did you alter firefox settings  FIREFOX_DSP="none"
[01:38] <gnuskool> to: FIREFOX_DSP="aoss"
[01:39] <gnuskool> Mohd: that file is specific to pulse audio, the problem you have seems to be with all flash streams
[01:39] <Mohd> gnuskool : Done that, but now i can't play even music on my Linux. Nothing with sound work.
[01:39] <Ar-Pharazon> Hello, quick question: What language are keyboard layouts written in?
[01:39] <gnuskool> Mohd: what version flash you install?
[01:40] <Mohd> gnuskool : I have the latest.
[01:41] <aalib> hey
[01:41] <jonathan_> hello everybody
[01:41] <Ar-Pharazon> What language would "key	<AE01> {	[		1,	    exclam 	] 	};" be in? Anyone?
[01:41] <aalib> any one arnd?
[01:42] <aalib> hey
[01:42] <aalib> i need help with sumthin..
[01:42] <jrib> juzzy_: why?  what do you want to do?
[01:42] <aalib> stolaris
[01:42] <predaeus> juzzy_, do you need to reboot, or do you just need a terminal?
[01:42] <dgjones> !anyone | aalib
[01:42] <juzzy_> Install the nvidia drivers
[01:42] <Ubotu> aalib: 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?
[01:42] <juzzy_> won't let me install in X
[01:42] <jrib> !nvidia > juzzy_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:42] <gordonjcp> juzzy_: that's a different problem
[01:42] <juzzy_> thank you
[01:42] <Mohd> gnusskool: I will restart and it might fix the problem, I will see you in a minute.
[01:43] <Ar-Pharazon> No one wants to play guess the language then?
[01:43] <gordonjcp> juzzy_: for future reference what you want to do is /etc/init.d/gdm stop to get rid of X while you fiddle with stuff
[01:43] <ilsa> Anyone else having trouble accessing respositories in the past few hours?
[01:43] <predaeus> juzzy_, hit ctrl-alt-F1, type "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm stop", isntall whatever you want, then run "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm start" and you should be back in X. else get back with alt-f7 to X.
[01:43] <juzzy_> gordonjcp: thats it
[01:43] <gordonjcp> juzzy_: but that's not what you want for installing the NVidia drivers
[01:43] <gordonjcp> juzzy_: assuming you're on plain vanilla Ubuntu Feisty, you want the restricted packages thing
[01:44] <azi`> hm.. i need to install a unstable version of libdrm through apt-get but apt-get insists that the "proper"  version is already installed, how do i make it install the *latest* version?
[01:44] <leperkhanz> What is the best way to record video from a tvtuner card?
[01:44] <jonathan_> anybody know what is topaz?
[01:44] <juzzy_> Fiesty upgraded to gutsy..
[01:44] <jonathan_> I heard it's a new gnome panel?
[01:45] <marioosz> where is it defined that when i press alt+f2 the console switches to /dev/tty2 ? i mean how can i map key that if i press lets say alt+f12 it doesnt switch the console to /dev/tty12 but to /dev/my_own_tty ?
[01:46] <kujo> I just installed ubuntu, and when it asked me for my username and password, I entered what I thought i made for them, and is says it's incorrect. I've tried typing them in over and over again, with the same result. Anyone know how to change the password or something?
[01:47] <bobbob> did you set your password during the install?
[01:47] <kujo> yes
[01:47] <dgjones> kujo, have you got caps lock on? remember is case sensitive
[01:47] <bobbob> that was my next question
[01:47] <kujo> let me check
[01:47] <bobbob> try different case
[01:48] <dgjones> caps lock (i think should be off) my usernames are always created in lowercase
[01:48] <kujo> oh, that was it :P
[01:48] <kujo> i'm so stupid
[01:48] <Mohd> gnuskool, still doesen't work
[01:49] <dgjones> kujo, don't worry, easy mistake to make
[01:49] <gnuskool> Mohd: whats in /etc/firefox/firefoxrc ?
[01:49] <Mohd> Can anyone tell me what is the default asound.conf file is? My mistake for being over-confident and not backing it up.
[01:49] <Mohd> gnuskool : Hang on.
[01:49] <gnuskool> kujo, O_o
[01:50] <Mohd> # which /dev/dsp wrapper to use

[01:59] <Wizard> ikonia: so.. i'm not sure which version did i download :P
[01:59] <nanonyme> ah, true
[01:59] <ikonia> aalib there isn't one
[01:59] <dgjones> mythtv_, , you could try getdeb.net, but even if there's a more recent version there, don't forget it'll be an unsupported version
[01:59] <UeB> hallo, i have just upgraded to 7.04 and have the following problem: my externel harddrives are now mounted under different names as before the upgrade the causes several applications that use data form these disks to fail
[01:59] <Wizard> i'll check :)

[02:00] <ikonia> UeB change their entries in /etc/fstab to the correct mount points
[02:00] <nanonyme> ikonia, imo better idea to install stable and dist-upgrade to gutsy anyway though...
[02:00] <ikonia> Batelje is your machine overclocked at at all
[02:00] <Wizard> OK
[02:00] <Wizard> i have 7.04
[02:00] <Batelje> no i dont think so
[02:00] <ikonia> nanonyme not really
[02:00] <nanonyme> why not?
[02:00] <Batelje> it worked fine
[02:00] <nanonyme> worked for me :)
[02:00] <IdleOne> Batelje: /join #ubuntu-mozillateam they can help you figure out the problem and fix it with you
 why not?
[02:00] <ikonia> oops
[02:00] <UeB> ok i try
[02:00] <sadmin> helo
[02:00] <sadmin> guys
[02:00] <Wizard> the problem is: installer wants to create 'newworld' boot partition
[02:00] <sadmin> how i delete my firefox cache
[02:01] <sadmin> from command line
[02:01] <sadmin> any idewa
[02:01] <Batelje> ok thnx idleone
[02:01] <ikonia> nanonyme I don't want to get into a long discussion on it, but basiclly your introducting another elemetent of unknown, what if there is a problem with the upgrade, what if some packages remain from the 7.04 install - its taining the gusty test/platform
[02:01] <nanonyme> it's a graphical browser, why on earth are you trying to tamper it with a command line?
[02:01] <ikonia> nanonyme more so why its in a development phase
[02:01] <Wizard> i have 100MB for that, but when i select it refuses to format it
[02:02] <ikonia> Wizard 100 meg for what ?
[02:02] <Wizard> for newworld boot
[02:02] <nanonyme> ikonia, well, i use it on exactly the same platform as him ;) it's nice to have the newest updates on at least my laptop because my hardware isn't that well supported
[02:02] <Wizard> ikonia: but ubuntu installer automagically selects it as / and does not want to format/use it
[02:02] <ikonia> nanonyme the os isn't supported so its a pointless disscussion
[02:02] <Wizard> and i cannot continue installation
[02:02] <nanonyme> i know, i'm on #ubuntu+1 :)
[02:03] <Svish> is there a good alternative to spotlight in mac os x for ubuntu?
[02:03] <Pici> Wizard: Don't use the guided partition then, repartition it manually
[02:03] <nanonyme> that is, also on that channel
[02:03] <westwoon> any1 know how to connect to other channel?
[02:03] <Pici> westwoon: /join #channelname

[02:06] <_johny> hi
[02:07] <john-pine> I have a ICH5/ICH5R audio chipset
[02:07] <UeB> @ikonia in the file /etc/fstab neither the old or new mount names of the external drives are mentioned (i never mounted them by my self by the way, always just plugged them in and waited for automount)
[02:07] <Pici> !kernel > cableroy__ (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[02:07] <john-pine> with AC'97 drivers
[02:07] <john-pine> but no sound
[02:07] <UeB> only the internal hard dirves are mentioned there
[02:07] <spike> hi
[02:07] <UeB> and the cdrom
[02:08] <animesh> hi
[02:08] <spike> what do I need in my source.list for breezy? archive.ubuntu.com/... doesnt work
[02:08] <cableroy__> Pici, i need to recompile since i need to patch a driver
[02:08] <spike> iirc it's old-releases something, but I cant find it
[02:08] <jrib> spike: you need to upgrade, breezy is EOL
[02:08] <Pici> cdbaric: That question is better suited for #crossover , also see http://www.codeweavers.com/support/
[02:08] <DexterF> asked the other way: how do I change font hinting for gtk2 apps when I'm not in Gnome?
[02:08] <animesh> when i am trying to boot my system it giving the error " Kernel panic - not syncing : Fatal exception in interrupt"
[02:08] <john-pine> anyone knows how to configure sound with ubuntu?
[02:09] <Pici> !sound > john-pine (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[02:09] <animesh> what will be probable error?

[02:10] <animesh> i have tried to boot with ubuntu live CD but got the same error
[02:10] <Batelje> mmm stange animesh
[02:10] <jrib> spike: old-releases.ubuntu.com .  At least don't connect it to the internet if you want to keep it on breezy for some reason since you aren't getting security updates any more
[02:10] <Batelje> did your ubuntu worked before it ?
[02:10] <Pici> jrib: /me makes not of that.
[02:10] <animesh> yeah
[02:11] <animesh> it worked well before
[02:11] <Batelje> and when did it happend ? after updates ?
[02:11] <spike> I wonder why that doesnt work then, I did put old-releases.ubuntu.com in my source list, but it still errors
[02:11] <clip> i need some help with ffmpeg, especially with ffmpeg-php. can sb help me?

[02:16] <livingdaylight> jrib, nice command... but when i put the path into gmail notifier it crashed... and not its not respondind
[02:16] <Pici> Mar1: Proprietary applications have little support for 64bits, e.g. flash.
[02:16] <Starcraftmazter> Just got a new comp, with SATA drives, and Ubuntu 7.04 doesnt want to detect them
[02:16] <deepkfiz> well, how do i download and use a p2p client like e-mule?
[02:16] <sadmin> pici u there
[02:16] <ryaren> Which DC client do you offer?
[02:16] <Mar1> ok. then i'll stick with my current
[02:16] <sadmin> hey i want to clear my firfox cache
[02:16] <Starcraftmazter> does anyone know how to make Ubuntu (7.04) detect SATA hds for installation and beyond
[02:16] <livingdaylight> jrib, i thought i'd would be something like $firefox or something
[02:16] <Mar1> thanks for the help though.. apprechiate it!
[02:16] <Pici> sadmin: I dont know how to do that. Sorry.
[02:16] <LadyNikon> deepkfiz: search for the program in synaptic. then select it for download
[02:16] <sadmin> its ok
[02:16] <deepkfiz> what is synaptic?
[02:17] <LadyNikon> !synaptic
[02:17] <Ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto

[02:17] <JuJuBee> I have a dell optiplex gx620.  I loaded kubuntu just fine, but when I go to restart or shutdown, it sometimes (mostly) hangs.  The screen shuts down and the computer stays powered up.  I  end up having to power off.  Yesterday someone told me to try acpi=off apm=on but that did not work.  Any suggestions?
[02:17] <Pici> sadmin: although its probably in preferences, under advanced, on the network tab.
[02:17] <livingdaylight> ....also, i have a question about webinar... Synaptic tells me that its installed, yet i can't find it anywhere in my apps menu... and typing the word in command line doenst work either
[02:17] <LadyNikon> deepkfiz: see the link above
[02:17] <Starcraftmazter> yo, does anyone know about SATA harddrive detection and Ubuntu
[02:18] <LadyNikon> Starcraftmazter: please be patient.  If you dont get your answer here.. please see the forums
[02:18] <Starcraftmazter> yeh...I was kind of hoping to install it now
[02:18] <printk> Starcraftmazter, and be more specific.  What sata controller?  It should be detected upon boot.
[02:18] <john-pine> hi
[02:18] <deepkfiz> ok... :) thx
[02:19] <john-pine> I tried everything I could find on help.ubuntu.com
[02:19] <jrib> livingdaylight: I use mail-notification

[02:21] <xazo> hhmm.
[02:21] <LadyNikon> Starcraftmazter: then i would suggest looking at the forums to see if someone has already had your issue.  This is a volunteer based channel.  So you may not always have someone here who understands your problem

[02:37] <livingdaylight> can someone help me out with this slight mystery: i've got webinar installed but can't find it... :/
[02:38] <gnuskool> john-pine: basically, what you need to do is go to alssa homepage and download latest alsa source, then compile it
[02:39] <rausb0> livingdaylight: you can get a file list of a installed package by typing  dpkg -L packagename  in the terminal

[02:44] <deepkfiz> it doesnt work... i dont really know how to use the terminal :D
[02:44] <gnuskool> john-pine: sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) module-assistant alsa-source
[02:44] <dgjones> mojo, in that case, i'm not sure, i was going to suggest using the windows recovery console and the fixmbr command but that doesn't seem relevant in this case
[02:44] <kemik> why use UUID for the mount operation in ubuntu (since edgy). what are the benefits?

[02:45] <livingdaylight> anyone familiar with webilder? how i might launch it first time if its not in apps menu?

[02:46] <kemik> but if i re-arrange my disks in hardware.. they'll have the same UUID and be mounted on the same mountpoints.. ?
[02:46] <dgjones> mojo, if you remove grub, what are you going to install in its place?

[02:49] <john-pine> gnuskool: yea but I give up, I'm gonna reinstall a recent ubuntu version
[02:49] <john-pine> thank u anyway
[02:49] <bullgard4> is 'udev' an abbreviation for 'universal device manager' or for what?
[02:50] <Ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[02:50] <ikonia> bullgard4 just name
[02:50] <gnuskool> john-pine: no problem
[02:50] <ikonia> unique device
[02:50] <bullgard4> ikonia: hm

[02:51] <wers> thanks
[02:51] <morpheus> anyone know how to stop mythtv from booting on my ubuntu box?
[02:52] <ikonia> morpheus remove the init script, or disable it
[02:52] <kidbuntu> help please. I bought a ZEN Vplus mp4 player. I can't get it work in ubuntu. It only charges the mp4 if windows is the booted up. not with linux
[02:52] <morpheus> how? i cant even get on to the box, mythtv takes over and when I exit it...it freezes my box :(
[02:52] <MrAdministrator> is it possible to revert my ubuntu installation to the way it was before i installed mysql apache2 and zabbix server monitoring?
[02:52] <kemik> morpheus: boot in safe-mode or sth?
[02:52] <ikonia> morpheus interupt the boot process
[02:53] <MrAdministrator> like after my first reboot from the live cd
[02:53] <morpheus> ok, so thats a new one on me, how do i do that?
[02:53] <tatters> if I use a duel boot can I share the swap partition or does each distro need it own?
[02:53] <ikonia> morpheus safe mode from the grub menu
[02:53] <morpheus> k
[02:53] <dgjones> tatters, yes
[02:53] <MrAdministrator> does anyone know if there is a way to revert my ubuntu installation back to factory defaults
[02:54] <kemik> MrAdministrator: remove teh stuff you'ev installed ?
[02:54] <tatters> dgjones: thnx
[02:54] <MrAdministrator> kemik: thats what i want to do, but i want to do it so that NONE of the config files for anything are there eg. apache2 mysql, and zabbix
[02:55] <MrAdministrator> kemik: is there a way just to go back to the default packages?
[02:55] <MrAdministrator> kemik: other than apt-get remove --purge?
[02:55] <dgjones> MrAdministrator, probably easier and quicker to do a fresh install
[02:55] <kemik> as dgjones said.
[02:55] <MrAdministrator> hmm can i do that on top of this installation?
[02:55] <willo> nice nick.
[02:55] <MrAdministrator> like go back to my live CD and redo the installation?
[02:55] <kemik> MrAdministrator: do you have stuff on the computer you need to save ?
[02:56] <MrAdministrator> not yet
[02:56] <kemik> just reinstall then
[02:56] <kemik> from the c
[02:56] <kemik> cd
[02:56] <dgjones> MrAdministrator, if you don't need to save anything, just install and tell the installed to format the partitions & it'll wipe everything
[02:56] <MrAdministrator> cool,, now where the heck did i put that cd...
[02:56] <morpheus> ok, have booted in safe mode, how do i find the bits of mythtv I want to stop from booting?
[02:57] <Mr_J_> i have a problem with my monitors frequency.
[02:57] <Mr_J_> xorg is editted with the correct settings for this LCD
[02:58] <Mr_J_> the problem is when I check the resolution the frequency is always wrong
[02:58] <bahadunn> how is SLI support in ubuntu?
[02:58] <Mr_J_> so I have to change it with Nvidia settings
[02:58] <bahadunn> I suppose it depends on the graphics driver support
[02:58] <Mr_J_> is it a bug? how would I double check my monitors frequency?
[02:59] <Layer8> hi
[02:59] <Mr_J_> hi
[02:59] <labmicro4> hi all, someone can help me with an Ubuntu NIS/NFS Client ?
[02:59] <gnuskool> Layer8: hi
[03:00] <Layer8> where does gnome cache the display settings?
[03:00] <labmicro4> the NIS can autenticate the user.
[03:00] <Layer8> i changed my setup to big desktop
[03:00] <labmicro4> but cannou mount the home directory
[03:00] <phiras1> How can I know my WLAN card model ?
[03:01] <deepkfiz> hello every1! as i am completely new to ubuntu, could someone please explicably explain to me how you install a good p2p program?
[03:02] <deepkfiz> thx
[03:02] <dgjones> Mr_J_, sounds like either the wrong driver installed, or maybe the frequency settings are wrong in xorg, i'd start by checking the monitor manual to find the correct HorizSync & VertRefresh settings and check them against xorg.conf
[03:02] <Mr_J_> dgjones: I already did that
[03:02] <Tawanda> hi guys how do i get wepcrack to install and work on  my laptop,i've got an intel pro wireless card
[03:02] <Mr_J_> I have the Automatix nvidia driver
[03:02] <Mr_J_> and I changed xorg.conf manually to make sure
[03:03] <erUSUL> deepkfiz: go to ubuntu-guide.org and get a hold on how things are done in linux/ubuntu. For a start go to menu Aplication>Add/remove apps
[03:03] <gnuskool> deepkfiz: which prog you wanna use?
[03:03] <elkbuntu> Mr_J_, you are aware how dangerous automatix is, aren't you?
[03:03] <ikonia> Mr_J_ automatix is not supported here
[03:03] <ikonia> !atuomatix
[03:03] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about atuomatix - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:03] <dgjones> Mr_J_, that could be the problem then having used Automatix
[03:03] <ikonia> oops
[03:03] <ikonia> !automatix
[03:03] <Ubotu> Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[03:03] <Tawanda> hi guys how do i get wepcrack to install and work on  my laptop,i've got an intel pro wireless card
[03:03] <Mr_J_> so I should just use nvidias stuff and try again?
[03:04] <Mr_J_> direct from the page
[03:04] <Mr_J_> right?
[03:04] <ikonia> Mr_J_ your system is now unsupported
[03:04] <Mr_J_> -.-'
[03:04] <ikonia> Mr_J_ automatix is not supported here
[03:04] <Tawanda> hi guys how do i get wepcrack to install and work on  my laptop,i've got an intel pro wireless card
[03:04] <Mr_J_> I get that
[03:04] <elkbuntu> yep. you may need to reinstall to get rid of what automatix has done
[03:04] <Mr_J_> if I unninstall, then is it supported?
[03:04] <ikonia> Tawanda you stop asking every 20 seconds and explain what you've done so far
[03:04] <ikonia> Mr_J_ no
[03:04] <Mr_J_> lolol
[03:04] <ikonia> Mr_J_ a fresh install is the only way
[03:05] <Mr_J_> great support you are
[03:05] <ikonia> we are not support
[03:05] <ikonia> that was the point
[03:05] <Tawanda> ikonia i've just installed linux
[03:05] <ikonia> Tawanda thats the best information you've got
[03:05] <ikonia> ?
[03:05] <Tawanda> i've got the tars
[03:05] <Tawanda> and a guide from the net
[03:05] <rausb0> Mr_J_: automatix is unsupported here
[03:05] <ikonia> Tawanda right I suggest you ave a read through the basic welcome and howto docs from http://www.ubuntu.com
[03:06] <jorvis_> can anyone help me get networking working on my new install?
[03:06] <ikonia> Tawanda as your not in a position to even report your own system

[03:06] <Tawanda> see i have the tars
[03:06] <ikonia> Tawanda right so what have you done so far  as all you have told me is "I've installed linux"
[03:06] <Tawanda> and  i did tar abc.tar

[03:06] <Tawanda> then make install
[03:07] <Pici> Tawanda: What are you trying to install?
[03:07] <Tawanda> wepcrack
[03:07] <Tawanda> the guide says

[03:08] <ikonia> ben_underscore yup, postgress support for the application is in #postgress
[03:09] <bahadunn> ben_underscore: what about it

[03:09] <ikonia> ben_underscore but if its related to ubuntu I 'll help
[03:09] <Pici> radek: I don't speak polish.
[03:09] <Tawanda> when i try    cd /tools/wifi/deps  it fails
[03:09] <Tawanda> no such directory
[03:09] <ben_underscore> ikonia: it's a general question, but on ubuntu so i'll try them. thanks
[03:09] <ikonia> ben_underscore good man !
[03:09] <bahadunn> no one seems to use SLI with linux it seems
[03:09] <ikonia> ben_underscore nice to see someone using good support processes
[03:09] <radek> bye all
[03:10] <ikonia> bahadunn I have done in the past
[03:10] <porky> hello people
[03:10] <bahadunn> ikonia: and how is support in ubuntu?
[03:10] <npu_l_n>  ikonia; is that  #postgress or something else.
[03:10] <ikonia> bahadunn variable depending on card and motherboard an drivers at that moment in time
[03:10] <ikonia> npu_l_n pardon ?
[03:10] <npu_l_n> there is no one in that channel.
[03:10] <bahadunn> ikonia: maybe it will get really good with ati opening up
[03:10] <jorvis_> no networking gurus in here?  i'm going to cry just a little
[03:10] <ikonia> bahadunn doubtful
[03:10] <ben_underscore> ikonia: we should have an expert system thingy that people can select via questions what irc channel is appropriate for them
[03:10] <Pici> npu_l_n: I think #postgresql
[03:10] <bahadunn> ikonia: why do you doubt?
[03:11] <ikonia> jorask the question
[03:11] <gustavo> its postgre
[03:11] <ikonia> bahadunn not appropriate to discuss in here
[03:11] <monkeyBox> Hi all.  I'm trying to hack a package that I already have installed.  I downloaded the source and compiled it successfully, and tried to use checkinstall to install it as a package.  Unfortunately, it says I have errors while trying to install the package:     dpkg: error processing /home/bend/src/eel-2.18.0/eel_2.18.0-1_i386.deb (--install):     trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/gcc', which is also in package gcc.    Why is it trying to overwrite gcc?
[03:11] <npu_l_n> thanks pici;
[03:11] <Pici> ben_underscore: There is http://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[03:11] <ikonia> Pici bang on
[03:12] <bahadunn> ikonia: if I intend to sell ubuntu machines and I am considering ubuntu running on an SLI machine then I feel it is very appropriate for this channel
[03:12] <kaktuskatta> Hi! I have an issue regarding WLAN. I've already visited various guides on ubuntuforum.org support site, but it didn't help me. I need some help to connect to a encrypted wireless network. I know that the card is working, because I've been able to connect to encrypted nets elsewhere. I don't know what's wrong, but nothing happens after I type the WPA-key!
[03:12] <Bothered> is it definitely impossible to recover deleted data on an ext3 partition?
[03:12] <bahadunn> ikonia: unless there is some #ubuntu-sli channel hiding somewhere
[03:12] <ikonia> bahadunn not really, as sli support is not an ubuntu issue its a kernel/3rd party driver issu that is a moving target
[03:12] <Tawanda> is there an atp-get command for wepcrack
[03:12] <bahadunn> fine
[03:12] <ben_underscore> Pici: thanks, that's excellent. the wonders of the ubuntu community
[03:12] <ikonia> Tawanda search the repo and see if there is a package
[03:13] <Tawanda> what is repo
[03:13] <ikonia> kudos to you ben_underscore
[03:13] <macogw> Bothered: unless you can pick through the disc block by block and know how each file's beginning and end look to find them...yes

[03:13] <macogw> Bothered: or pay someone like $1000 to do it
[03:13] <Tawanda> thanks
[03:13] <ikonia> Tawanda as I said I suggest you read the basic welcoe and howto documents on http://www.ubuntu.com

[03:13] <jonnymac> In desperate need of help
[03:14] <ikonia> jonnymac then ask the question
[03:14] <jonnymac> time =essence
[03:14] <Bothered> !ask
[03:14] <kaktuskatta> Any WLAN-wizards here?
[03:14] <Ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:14] <jonnymac> I partitioned my hard drive
[03:14] <kaktuskatta> ;)
[03:14] <Pici> !enter | jonnymac
[03:14] <Ubotu> jonnymac: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:14] <jonnymac> and now windows office , oh sorry, in my windows startup won't let me send word files
[03:15] <ikonia> jonnymac you'll get windows support in #windows
[03:15] <Pici> jonnymac: ##windows rather
[03:15] <ikonia> jonnymac this channel is for ubuntu support
[03:15] <Bothered> macowg: k, thanks for the help - time to get my back up drive out
[03:15] <ikonia> isn't #windows a redirect ?
[03:15] <Pici> ikonia: it might be.
[03:15] <jonnymac> I know I'm on ubuntu now, but the thing is my windows partition doesn't let me send or transfer any Office files
[03:16] <erUSUL> !ntfs | jonnymac
[03:16] <Ubotu> jonnymac: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[03:16] <ikonia> jonnymac again, not really an ubuntu problem, windows support is in the channel ##windows
[03:16] <jonnymac> It converts them to docx that I can't open or print on other people's , ah ok sorry and thank you
[03:16] <erUSUL> jonnymac: if you want to be able to writte files on your windows partitions from ubuntu you have to set up ntfs-3g
[03:17] <kemik> ntfs-3g is safe?
[03:17] <stefg> i'd say yes
[03:17] <jonnymac> I'm a complete newbie, only been on ubuntu since last night
[03:18] <erUSUL> jonnymac: docx is new 2007 office format not compatible with anything. just use 2003 doc format or better yet use OO.org in windows and linux
[03:18] <jonnymac> ah... everything is explained
[03:18] <jonnymac> ok thank you
[03:18] <Tasmaniac> matter of intrest ntfs-3g only for local harddrives/partions or network ones as well?
[03:18] <gnuskool> deepkfiz: go to synaptic packet manager, click search, type in peer-to-peer, then choose a p2p prog from there
[03:18] <stefg> kemik: the only point to look at is that theres no ntfs-filesystem checking utility in Linux. If your ntfs gets unmounted unclean you need a windows chkdsk
[03:18] <thomas__> hi @ all
[03:19] <Pici> Tasmaniac: only for local drives, samba/network drives work differently
[03:19] <Tasmaniac> Pici ok was just wondering if  it would fix me other prob :)
[03:19] <Layer8> hi all!
[03:19] <Layer8> i set up a big desktop config
[03:19] <erUSUL> Tasmaniac: is for ntfs partitions hence the name in other words only local drives... for SMB shares there are the smbfs and cifs modules
[03:20] <npu_l_n> why my 2.66 GHz system is taking much time to boot compared to 1.0 GHz system.  OS ubuntu 7.04. even though this is in seconds, but the difference is a difference.
[03:20] <Layer8> but my second monitor is being used with 1400x1050 as my first display...
[03:20] <ikonia> npu_l_n different hardware, detection boot up options etc etc
[03:20] <Layer8> i configured it to 1280x1024 in my xorg.conf
[03:21] <stefg> npu_l_n: depending on your hardware and install there might be more services started. also that's dependendant on harddrive performance
[03:21] <kemik> stefg: ok, that sounds reasonable.. (if i use ntfs, odds are i'm using a dualboot environment, ;) )
[03:22] <stefg> npu_l_n: you could speed up the boot by once adding 'profile' to the boot parameters. So the boot gets profiled and the preloading is optimized
[03:23] <jorvis_> anyone know how to find out the nic card model in a dell xps m1330 ?
[03:23] <npu_l_n> stefg; yeah, I have problem with the hard drives.  many times attempted to optimize them, but no luck.
[03:23] <ikonia> jorvis_ its a broadcom
[03:23] <stefg> npu_l_n: so don't write that to menu.lst, just edit the parameters once manually (and after kernel updates and config changes)
[03:23] <jorvis_> ikonia: know which?  and which module should I use?  e1000, tga3?
[03:24] <dgjones> jorvis_, Dell website - use the support option and enter the tag number, that should give you details of what the original configuration was
[03:24] <ikonia> jorvis_ broadcom isn't e1000, thats intel
[03:24] <ikonia> jorvis_ do an lspci
[03:24] <ikonia> jorvis_ or look on the dell website
[03:24] <npu_l_n> stefg; do you know any thing about uninterruptible status that many times the processes  under go.
[03:24] <jorvis_> lspci just yields "Broadcom unknown device"
[03:24] <ikonia> jorvis_ look on the dell website
[03:25] <jorvis_> actually, "Broadcom unknown device 1713"
[03:25] <npu_l_n> stefg; this is related to hard drive that's why I am asking.
[03:25] <Chrom_> hi all
[03:25] <stefg> npu_l_n: no, but you might ask in #hardware
[03:25] <gnuskool> Layer8: im not sure i understand what it is youre trying to do...you want same resolution on both monitors?
[03:25] <jonathan_> somebody know how to install topaz brainstorm?
[03:26] <ikonia> jonathis it in the ubuntu repos ?
[03:26] <Chrom_> I have a problem with a microsd card and ubuntu. I have a memory card reader that works perfectly with normal sdcards. now I just got a microsd with an sdcard adapter and the device is not correctly mounted
[03:26] <Layer8> gnuskool, no, i have one with 1400 and one with 1280...I'd like to have a big desktop. but gnome always uses 1400 for both displays...
[03:26] <deepkfiz> is there someone here from israel?
[03:26] <Chrom_> syslog sais: mmcblk0:<3>mmcblk0: error 2 transferring data
[03:26] <DShepherd> jonathan_, i dont think that''s available just yet. its just a concept.. an idea.. nothing else.. as far as I know anyways..
[03:26] <Chrom_> and a lot of end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 0
[03:26] <gnuskool> deepkfiz: go to synaptic packet manager, click search, type in peer-to-peer, then choose a p2p prog from there
[03:26] <jonathan_> anybody here?
[03:26] <jonathan_> !
[03:27] <Chrom_> onlots of sectors

[03:42] <ikonia> jorvis_ I explained this to your yesterday

[03:43] <gustavo> ikonia: really?
[03:43] <gustavo> but its a linux related.
[03:43] <ikonia> jorvis_ ooh maybe someone else then, I definatly went through this with someone with a similar nick yesterday
[03:43] <ikonia> gustavo this is ubuntu specific support
[03:44] <Pici> gustavo: It may very well be, but this channel is _only_ for Ubuntu support. #debian and ##linux also exist, you can try there.
[03:44] <gustavo> ubuntu is not linux?
[03:44] <gustavo> lol
[03:44] <jorvis_> ikonia: how did you do the original install?

[03:47] <zzYzz> IIIIIIIIIIIII love ubuntu(P)
[03:47] <ben_underscore> stefg: apologies.
[03:47] <jorvis_> ikonia: and which 3rd party module did you use?
[03:47] <bullgard4> What is meant by 'callout' as in man (7) udev: "cdrom_id (8) - udev callout to determine the capabilities of cd/dvd drives"?

[03:47] <ikonia> joris don't have the details as I'm not on that laptop at the moment

[03:48] <jorvis_> ikonia: do you remember if you installed the 32 or 64-bit ubuntu?
[03:48] <erUSUL> bullgard4: it is a helper program that is called (called out ;P) by udev when it wants to query optical drives
[03:48] <ikonia> jorvis_ did it on both, I ended up with 32bit as I had no requirement for 64bit on the laptop, but tested both
[03:48] <yanger> pike_, that restarted the panals, but didn't fix the clicky issue
[03:48] <ikonia> jorvis_ the latop in questio won't benifit from 64bit
[03:49] <jorvis_> is this channel logged?  I'd like to check out that conversation from yesterday

[03:49] <testperm> hi
[03:49] <testperm> I have a slight problem/question
[03:49] <stefg> !ask
[03:49] <Ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:49] <testperm> im setting up a LAMP server, and i have truoble with the user permissions
[03:50] <ikonia> testperm can you be more speicifc please
[03:50] <testperm> stefg: im asking, read, dont tell me to give you somethign to read
[03:50] <ikonia> testperm drop the attitude stefg was right
[03:50] <profanephobia> calm down kiddies
[03:50] <testperm> ikonia: i want this scenario: every suer has a public_html, ti shoudl be able to list files. but the others users arent supposed to be able to ls the other users home dirs
[03:51] <jorvis_> ikonia: yesterday you talked to someone named 'Secher'
[03:51] <ikonia> testperm thats nothing to do with lamp
[03:51] <testperm> ikonia: i know
[03:51] <ikonia> jorvis_ try the day before
[03:51] <testperm> ikonia: thats why i said user permissions
[03:51] <ikonia> testperm so why are you talking about lamp ?
[03:51] <stefg> !permissions
[03:51] <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
[03:51] <testperm> ikonia: i wasnt talking to lamp. i was just telling what im using, that can help you to understand what i want.
[03:51] <niekie> testperm: If you only set the permissions on the users home directory to +x, then they'll be able to traverse that directory, but not ls in it.
[03:52] <ikonia> testperm ok - very easy the /home dir needs to be 711 so that the owner can read or write and the web server can execute
[03:52] <niekie> They will be able to read the files in it if they know the name of the file and the permission is set to allow reading from everyone.
[03:52] <testperm> ikonia: if i set the chmod to 711, then every uesr can ls that dir
[03:52] <ikonia> testperm no they can't
[03:53] <ikonia> testperm ok change the users home dir to $user:webserver and do 710 and put the apache user in the webserver group
[03:53] <gustavo> sorry for the question, but im designing a website, and i would like to have your opinions... tell me good sites for linux tutorials (for services configurations/install)?
[03:54] <ikonia> gustavo www.tlpd.org
[03:54] <ikonia> gustavo but as said earlier this is a channel for ubuntu support, not generic linux
[03:54] <niekie> !apache | gustavo
[03:54] <Ubotu> gustavo: 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+)
[03:54] <pike_> yanger: sorry i dont have alot of exp with gnome. this is only an issue using mouse in gnome-panel? maybe someone else here can offer advise
[03:54] <gustavo> okay, but i understand, but everyone here uses linux
[03:54] <testperm> ikonia: thanks. its working now..
[03:54] <gustavo> niekie: ?
[03:54] <stefg> !offtopic | gustavo
[03:54] <Ubotu> gustavo: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:55] <yanger> pike_, it's ok, someone will help :P
[03:55] <Pici> gustavo: We have an #ubuntu-offtopic channel if you want to talk about general stuff.
[03:55] <gustavo> okay, okay
[03:55] <niekie> gustavo: I thought you needed help with setting up services like LAMP.
[03:56] <gustavo> niekie: thanks, but i would like a site as www.howtoforge.com
[03:56] <jorvis_> ikonia: I couldn't see anything useful in the logs from 9/11 in your conversation with Secher, other than you did it and it works fine.  The term "1330" never appears in the logs from 9/10
[03:56] <ikonia> jorvis_ It was the last few days and %100 in this channel I explained someone about it
[03:56] <testperm> ikonia: when i set it to 711 last time, the webcerver couldnt list it
[03:56] <gnuskool> gustavo, ubuntuforums.org has a search feature that might be of use
[03:57] <gustavo> gnuskool: thanks :)
[03:57] <gnuskool> gustavo, also check launchpad.net, it has an ubuntu section too
[03:57] <gustavo> ikonia: that site has nothing :D
[03:57] <ikonia> gustavo www.tldp.org is one of the biggest documentation sites for linux - so yes
[03:58] <gustavo> ikonia: okay, u typed tlpd.org before :D
[03:58] <gustavo> gnuskool: thanks again
[03:59] <gnuskool> gustavo, ;D
[04:01] <yanger> whoa, pike_ suddenly, the menus are working again...
[04:01] <_Lemon_> Hey all, I have two wireless routers and 3 pc's (2 Windows, 1 Linux). One of the wireless routers has the Internet, the Linux box can connect to that wireless via wireless and then the Linux box connects to the other wireless router via a wire.  The idea is that the 2 Windows clients then connect to the second wireless router ("Miaow") and then get access to the Internet connection via Miaow...
[04:01] <_Lemon_> ...-> Linux box -> first wireless router. If I replace the Linux box with a Windows machine and share the connection it works as intended, however I'd rather use Linux. Where would I go about in setting this up?
[04:01] <yanger> maybe there was some lag somewhere ;\
[04:02] <gerro> Lemon: what?
[04:03] <kidbuntu> !frostwire
[04:03] <Ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[04:03] <gerro> Lemon: let me get this straight linux> wireless router > reg router < 2 windows comp         and regular router connects to internet?
[04:03] <pike_> yanger: just be grateful. dont question it.  ;p
[04:03] <yanger> yep
[04:03] <yanger> :) thanks.
[04:03] <_Lemon_> gerro: The 2 Windows PCs connect via the wireless router
[04:04] <_Lemon_> and the Linux is connected to both routers
[04:04] <gerro> Lemon: so the linux computer has direct connection to the regular router?
[04:04] <_Lemon_> Yes
[04:04] <gerro> Lemon: You want to remove the regular router all together and have the linux box sending internet connection to the wireless router?
[04:04] <gerro> Lemon: do you have 2 network cards?
[04:04] <_Lemon_> I have 2 network cards, a wireless and an Ethernet
[04:05] <_Lemon_> The problem is I can't remove a router out of the scene because of the distance (5 floor house...)
[04:05] <gerro> Lemon: here is a sort of bridging scheme were talking about over in #debian it might give you an idea on the commands. But also you'd need to setup decent iptables firewall for the windows comps
[04:05] <gerro> http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/TransparentBridge
[04:06] <gerro> Lemon: or if you want to work scrictly at layer 3 could use some iptables forwarding rule
[04:06] <_Lemon_> ok, so it's a matter of setting up iptables correctly to get the Windows machine's stuff routed?
[04:06] <alx_ari> hi all
[04:07] <gerro> Lemon: yes unless you do it at layer 2 with a sort of switching method
[04:07] <alx_ari> I was here before talking with ikonia and contessa
[04:07] <alx_ari> I managed to configure grub
[04:07] <_Lemon_> ahhh, ok - I'm not sure how permanent this is so what would you think would be the easiest to go about? heh
[04:07] <gerro> Lemon: but you want it to act as a router so yeah setup iptables
[04:07] <alx_ari> but I cannot start WInXP
[04:07] <alx_ari> just ubuntu entry works...
[04:07] <_Lemon_> ok, thank you gerro :)
[04:07] <mthed> How can i copy a folder in terminal
[04:07] <gerro> Lemon: if you play around with iptables commands none of the settings are permanent until you save them, so toy around all you like
[04:08] <gerro> Lemon: it mainly screws with stuff in /proc which is stored in memory
[04:08] <jrib> mthed: cp -a
[04:08] <_Lemon_> ok, cheers again.
[04:09] <SuperLag> Do you guys know of any mail client that will allow you to run it from a script with a canned message, and (most importantly) allow multiple attachments? I've been using mutt, but it seems to only allow a single attachment.
[04:10] <mthed> jrib: you mean if i want to copy say for example a folder named muzak  i just write cp -a muzak?
[04:10] <gerro> SuperLag: pine?
[04:10] <jrib> mthed: well, you need to copy it somewhere: cp -a muzak /some/other/place
[04:10] <_Lops88_> ciao a tutti
[04:10] <rausb0> mthed: cp -a muzak /target/directory
[04:11] <mthed> how do i copy to root?
[04:11] <jrib> mthed: why do you want to do this?
[04:12] <_Lops88_> c' qualcuno che parla italiano

[04:12] <jrib> erm, _Lops88_ , that was for you
[04:12] <shad0w> hi all
[04:14] <Christina18> Problem! Error appears when trying to run a perl file.  'Forbidden - You don't have permission to access file.cgi on this server.' It does not appear when accessing php and html files. I have set all permissions 777. What is wrong?
[04:14] <Linux-Daemon> hey i need help compiling C++ on linux?
[04:14] <Linux-Daemon> any ideas?
[04:14] <ferric84> I partitioned a hard drive to dual boot win & ubuntu, which works fine.  I'm using ubuntu's boot loader.  If I, through windows, delete the ubuntu partition, will this screw my window's mbr somehow?  what is the best way to remove ubuntu in this case?
[04:15] <jrib> Linux-Daemon: g++ -o file file.cc    after you install the "build-essential" package.  Then run './file' to execute your program
[04:15] <Flannel> ferric84: Do you have a windows CD?
[04:15] <boojah> im setting up a ubuntu server to act as a file/print server in my home.. we've been provided a dns server from our ISP but i want to set the ubuntu server as static.. where do i type in the DNS address?
[04:15] <_Lops88_> i have installed ubuntu alternate 64bit in text modo...but when i try tu start the system the screen stay black.....whay? what i can do?
[04:15] <ferric84> flannel: not sure, probably somewhere
[04:15] <SuperLag> boojah: /etc/resolv.conf
[04:15] <Linux-Daemon> jrib: Can i do this with a shell script thing?
[04:15] <boojah> SuperLag: thanks
[04:16] <jrib> Linux-Daemon: you should look into writing Makefiles
[04:16] <Linux-Daemon> kk
[04:16] <ikonia> boojah you can't set static IP's, you ISP does that, always best to let your ISP manage you IP/DNS config
[04:16] <Flannel> ferric84: When you delete your Ubuntu partition, GRUB will still be trying to boot to grub (which is on your Ubuntu partition).  You need to fixmbr with a windowsCD, or just keep the /boot part of your Ubuntu partition (You can shrink it down tiny to like 50Mb or whatever)
[04:17] <jrib> _Lops88_: can you get to a tty by hitting ctrl-alt-f1?
[04:17] <shad0w> !bcm43xx-fwcutter
[04:17] <boojah> ikonia: its alot better to have the server as a static IP address. in case the router gives out new ip addresses
[04:17] <ikonia> boojah you can't do that
[04:17] <Linux-Daemon> jrib: This is my launcher i found online.
[04:17] <Linux-Daemon> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37200/
[04:17] <boojah> ikonia: what do you mean i can't set a static ip addres?!?! /etc/network/interfaces
[04:17] <nooga> ehh
[04:18] <jrib> Linux-Daemon: yes, I guess that works too
[04:18] <boojah> ikonia: i just want to know where i type in the dns address im gonna use
[04:18] <ikonia> boojah if you set a static IP address your server may not negotiate with your ISP if it expects to server out dhcp to you
[04:18] <Linux-Daemon> jrib: So do i make the .Cpp and then run it on the shell?
[04:18] <kitche> boojah, don't mind ikonia if you have a router between the server and the modem you can do it dns info goes into /etc/resolv.conf
[04:18] <boojah> ikonia: my router is the gateway, everything gets send there.. lol
[04:18] <cookie_> hello
[04:18] <ikonia> boojah ahhh so its static on your private IP
[04:18] <nooga> how to install flash plugin for firefox under 64-bit feisty?
[04:19] <cookie_> what is libc6 and how do I get it?
[04:19] <jrib> Linux-Daemon: yeah, basically, but you need to still pass the path to your .Cpp to the script

[04:20] <g011um> hi i'have a qustion about debian packaging
[04:20] <cookie_> My libc6 is damaged, where can I get a new one?
[04:20] <ikonia> cookie_ how is it damaged ?
[04:20] <boojah> kitcha: cant i just set it static in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[04:21] <kitche> boojah, yes that's where you set it
[04:21] <boojah> kitcha: ok thanks alot
[04:21] <cookie_> ikonia: I tried to install linuxdcpp and it says there is a problem with libc6
[04:21] <kitche> boojah, but man interfaces tells you what you need to set it static in that file
[04:21] <ikonia> cookie_ what is the problem and how did you try to install linuxdcpp ?
[04:21] <cookie_> through a debisn package
[04:21] <cookie_> debian
[04:21] <ikonia> kitche  you where right, I thought he was trying to set a pulic static ip
[04:21] <ikonia> cookie_ debian packages are not menat for ubuntu
[04:22] <ikonia> cookie_ they run on a different set of dependencies
[04:22] <cookie_> ikonia: ok, then how should I install it
[04:22] <epiclulz> how do you start AWN? i just installed it from repositories, i click AWN Manager, and nothing happens?
[04:22] <ikonia> cookie_ get the package from the ubuntu repo
[04:22] <cookie_> repo?
[04:22] <ikonia> cookie_ yes, the ubuntu software repo, that package managers like apt-get, synpatic and aptitide connect to

[04:31] <kaiyilen> is the version i7m running
[04:32] <kaiyilen> and the situation im running it under
[04:32] <Pici> kaiyilen: you are vnc-ing from Windows?
[04:32] <kaiyilen> yes
[04:32] <Pici> kaiyilen: This may be a windows problem then, you could try asking in ##windows too (unless they shooed you here)
[04:32] <mthed> How can i save my iptables rules?
[04:32] <visioncig> ubotu:i love here!!
[04:33] <kaiyilen> i7ll ask there
[04:33] <mthed> i tried iptables -save but it didn't work :(
[04:35] <Pici> mthed: Its a bit slow in here today, you could ask in #iptables
[04:35] <gerro> mthed: iptables-save
[04:36] <gerro> no space
[04:36] <mthed> got it. i used space earlier :)
[04:36] <_Lops88_> exusme .... I have a nvidia geforce 8600m and at the start of X the screen stay black....how I can do?
[04:36] <Mersault> I've just installed feisty on a new computer with an IDE system disk, and I have four SATA drives that I want to setup with RAID0. The mobo has an nforce chipset which supports RAID. Is using dmraid with the nforce chipset my best bet? What are my options? I don't have any previous RAID experience, so I'm hoping someone here has a bit of advice.
[04:37] <gerro> lops88: eh yours is rather new I'd say remove what is currently installed for nvidia and grab latest driver from nvidia site
[04:37] <LinuxMafia> hi all
[04:37] <gerro> lops88: or install gutsy
[04:37] <niekie> !hi | LinuxMafia
[04:37] <Ubotu> LinuxMafia: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:37] <lewnidas_> hi :)
[04:37] <LinuxMafia> i installed unrar-free but i dont have rar command
[04:38] <gerro> hiiiii
[04:38] <LinuxMafia> any one can direct me
[04:38] <niekie> LinuxMafia: that's why it is called unrar :-)
[04:38] <kaiyilen> theres no one in #windows
[04:38] <jrib> LinuxMafia: for the "rar" command, you need "rar.  If you just want to unrar stuff, then get rid of "unrar-free" and install "unrar" since "unrar-free" is pretty useless
[04:38] <Helzibah> kaiyilen: try ##windows
[04:38] <jrib> !rar > LinuxMafia (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:38] <kaiyilen> thats where i7m at
[04:38] <LinuxMafia> thakns'
[04:38] <gerro> LinuxMafia: dunno I use 7z
[04:39] <lewnidas_> i saw in ubuntu.com that versiov 7.04 is only 1 cd....
[04:39] <Rainarrow> Hello, I have some question about the Linux permission system
[04:39] <niekie> lewnidas_: indeed it is :-)
[04:39] <gerro> lewnidas_: yes one cd
[04:39] <lewnidas_> is any progs in???
[04:39] <niekie> lewnidas_: basic programs.
[04:39] <Rainarrow> Say, if I have a r----- file in a rw----- directory, would I be about to write to it?
[04:39] <niekie> lewnidas_: if you need more advanced programs, you can download them with an easy installer.
[04:40] <gerro> Rainarrow: dunno I just google for chmod calculator and be on my merry noob way
[04:40] <relix> Hey, I'm trying to set up ffmpeg for video conversion for an ipod video
[04:40] <niekie> lewnidas_: but you get an Internet Browser, music and video player, an IM client, a few games, and a word processor standard.
[04:40] <lewnidas_> niekie and if u don't have dsl...?
[04:40] <gerro> Rainarrow: any other directories there to base your assumption on?
[04:40] <relix> I'm trying the method in this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=114946
[04:40] <relix> under heading "Installing ffmpeg"
[04:41] <niekie> lewnidas_: you can order an Ubuntu CD. The downloads can't be ordered, I think.
[04:41] <kaiyilen> Any idea on what i need to do to solve this? Any idea on what i need to do to solve this...?
[04:41] <relix> when I follow those steps, however, I get an error "ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.50: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[04:41] <relix> "
[04:41] <Rainarrow> gerro, I am just playing with those permissions, I tried to create a file as root in my home directory
[04:41] <niekie> lewnidas_: you can get Ubuntu for free on a CD if you need it.
[04:41] <Rainarrow> it get 644 by default, so I shouldn't be able to write to it
[04:41] <niekie> lewnidas_: it will be mailed to you for free, if you want.
[04:41] <Rainarrow> however, actually I could
[04:41] <gerro> niekie lwenidas: you can order the ubuntu package that comes with everything in the repositories I think its like 3-5 discs or so
[04:41] <Drazha> Rainarrow, the directory must have the rwx------ at least in order to be accessible
[04:41] <niekie> lewnidas_: it will only contain the standard programs though.
[04:41] <m42> hello,  I am having trouble connecting to a certain website
[04:41] <m42> I did a traceroute
[04:42] <niekie> gerro: you can?
[04:42] <Rainarrow> however, when I did that again in another directory, say, /tmp
[04:42] <npnufn> how can I keep a process in memory even after closing it?
[04:42] <m42> !pastebin
[04:42] <Ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:42] <Rainarrow> create a file as root, then switch to my user to try write to it
[04:42] <gerro> Rainarrow: awesome program http://www.ezau.com/latest/tools/chmod.html
[04:42] <Rainarrow> then I could no longer write it
[04:42] <MrDeadLock> Is there a way to make a LOG file, POST to a HTML file every 10-20 seconds, So that i'd be able to remotely watch certain log files, from my ntework and just see a compilation of log files in a html document.
[04:42] <kaiyilen> I am using windows to VNC into ubuntu and some of my critical keys are missing/scrambled. such as the equal key is replaced by a minus key and so the quotation marks are replaced by the number two...Any idea on what i need to do to solve this?
[04:43] <LinuxMafia> thanks alot guys
[04:43] <Rainarrow> Drazha, I noticed that, I think directories must be executable to be accessible
[04:43] <LinuxMafia> thanks for help
[04:43] <praet> MrDeadLock: cat -v logfile > html.htm
[04:43] <lewnidas_> iz anywhere any screenshots of the installer that ubuntu use to get more programs??
[04:43] <Drazha> Rainarrow, depends on who is the owner of the file, if you create a file as a root user and set read only for file owner, you cant edit it with any other user then
[04:43] <m42> can someone please take a look at my traceroute and tell me who I need to contact http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37204/
[04:43] <Matir> Anyone know how to enable the s-video output on the X.org ati driver?
[04:43] <praet> MrDeadLock: i would make a php script that pulled the data out at page refresh
[04:43] <m42> this website has been down for two weeks now and I am not sure who to contact
[04:44] <m42> I guess it would be the last hop?
[04:44] <MrDeadLock> praet: Is there any guide or help, that i might start learning how to do that?
[04:44] <bullgard4> What do P, N, L, S, E mean in http://paste.debian.net/36920?
[04:44] <Rainarrow> Drazha, actually my question is that whether the permission of a directory override those files under it
[04:44] <Drazha> Rainarrow, nope
[04:44] <Drazha> Rainarrow, the permissions the directory has are permissions of the directory, not the file...
[04:44] <epiclulz> what's a good program i can use for .PAR2 files in ubuntu?
[04:44] <dgjones> m42, are you trying to access bluetack.co.uk?
[04:45] <Rainarrow> Drazha, I could delete a file, which has rw-r--r--, owned my root, and located in my home directory, using my username
[04:45] <m42> yes
[04:45] <Drazha> Rainarrow, there are ways to set so called "sticky" permissions, but as a noob you'd probably wanna stay clear of that
[04:45] <m42> it works with tor
[04:45] <dgjones> m42, in that case, the site is up and working
[04:45] <macogw> Drazha: is that t?
[04:45] <kaiyilen> I am using windows to VNC into ubuntu and some of my critical keys are missing/scrambled. such as the equal key is replaced by a minus key and so the quotation marks are replaced by the number two...Any idea on what i need to do to solve this?
[04:45] <Rainarrow> Drazha, however, I can't do the same in the directory /tmp
[04:46] <ari_> a.a.a. almost finished
[04:46] <Drazha> Rainarrow, ah, are you sure? always use "id" to see what user you are as... and in Ubuntu you can sometimes pick up the root userid and then it stays with you until it times out
[04:46] <alcoholic> i have installed XAMPP on ubuntu fiesty server it works fine however i want  to change the ssl certificate its currently showinghow to do that
[04:46] <ari_> grub troubless :'(
[04:46] <rausb0> Rainarrow: deleting the file is a write operation on the directory where the file is located, not on the file itself
[04:46] <ari_> ikonia, :-P
[04:46] <BleedingMoon> /server irc.nix.co.il
[04:46] <Drazha> macogw, yes
[04:46] <Rainarrow> Oops
[04:46] <rausb0> Rainarrow: you own the directory where the file was, so you could delete it
[04:47] <Pici> bullgard4: Path,Name,Symlink, Environment, and something.  udevinfo --help explains it a little bit.
[04:47] <rausb0> Rainarrow: creating/deleting files are write operations on directories
[04:47] <bullgard4> Pici: Thank you very much for explaining.
[04:47] <rausb0> Rainarrow: writing _to_ a file is a write operation on a file
[04:48] <m42> is there a way to find away around a bad network connection
[04:48] <macogw> Drazha: other evil trick to pull on people using certain file systems....chattr immutable :P
[04:48] <Rainarrow> Hello rausb0, thanks for explaning
[04:48] <m42> like if your traceroute fails
[04:48] <Rainarrow> rausb0, I did test a little more
[04:48] <rausb0> Rainarrow: and /tmp is a special case
[04:48] <Rainarrow> what's special about /tmp?
[04:48] <Drazha> macogw, best one is to drop the laptop from the 5th floor onto your head with ubuntu installed on it... who says Linux is not lethal? :)
[04:49] <macogw> rausb0: which is why i'm compiling in /tmp :) the quota on ~ on the school's server is too low for me to compile gcc
[04:49] <rausb0> Rainarrow: /tmp has the "sticky" bit set, so it is writable for anyone, but files can only be deleted by their owners
[04:49] <macogw> Drazha: hah....i did drop the hard drive out of my laptop.  put it back, rebooted, fsck fixed two inodes, and everything's dandy
[04:50] <Rainarrow> rausb0, so the "sticky" permission meant every file in a dir get the dir's sticky permission
[04:50] <Johbe> What's the latest version of ubuntu? I'm running Feisty now, but is there some "unstable" branch?
[04:50] <Johbe> I need an updated version of emerald.
[04:50] <rausb0> Rainarrow: no. new files or dirs in /tmp do not inherit rwxrwxrwx permissions
[04:50] <RichW>  #linux
[04:50] <RichW> oops
[04:50] <Drazha> macogw, but did you drop it on yer head? :)
[04:51] <macogw> Johbe: feisty is the most recent release
[04:51] <macogw> Johbe: gutsy is unstable, so if you're a newb, stay back
[04:51] <rausb0> Rainarrow: but they can only be removed by the one who created them. of course, root can remove them too.
[04:51] <Johbe> I'm not a newb. Just new to ubuntu.
[04:51] <Devious_> hello all, can some1 help a complete newb to linux please? i dont know how to compile a downloaded program, and i dont quite understand instructions...
[04:51] <Johbe> Been debianized for 5+ years.
[04:51] <boojah> does anyone know why i can't copy/paste in a putty session? tried everything, mouseclick, shift+insert etc
[04:51] <macogw> Johbe: most in this channel are newbs, so it's standard warning
[04:51] <Johbe> Ofcoures.
[04:52] <stevnblinux> Does anyone know a good source for svn help?  I have tried the #svn channel but no response.
[04:52] <Rainarrow> rausb0, ok, so how do I tell if a file/dir has a sticky bit?
[04:52] <Rainarrow> rausb0, or sticky bit is a exclusive feature of dirs?
[04:52] <macogw> Johbe: anyway though, i'm not sure if beryl is in gutsy at all. i think it has compiz fusion instead, so i dont think it has emerald
[04:52] <Devious_> any?
[04:52] <macogw> boojah: did you try middle click?
[04:52] <Devious_> any1?
[04:52] <rausb0> Rainarrow: sticky bit is only valid for directories. ls -l shows them as drwxrwxrwt
[04:53] <macogw> Devious_: why do you need to download?
[04:53] <macogw> Devious_: er i mean, compile
[04:53] <Rainarrow> Hello, Devious_, I think you could tell us what in the instruction you can't follow
[04:53] <Johbe> okay I'll check it out, might need to replace it then.
[04:53] <Pici> Devious_: What program?
[04:53] <rausb0> Rainarrow: notice the "t" instead of "x"
[04:53] <macogw> Devious_: you should be able to get pretty much all you need from the repositories
[04:53] <Johbe> 1064 upgraded, 140 newly installed, 9 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
[04:53] <Johbe> Need to get 861MB of archives.
[04:53] <Johbe> After unpacking 487MB of additional disk space will be used.
[04:53] <Johbe> Do you want to continue [Y/n] ? Y
[04:53] <Johbe> ugh.. :P
[04:53] <Rainarrow> rausb0, ok I see
[04:53] <macogw> Johbe: first update after install?
[04:54] <Pici> Johbe: Pleaes refrain from pasting to the channel, it causes uneeded scroll, use a pastebin instead.
[04:54] <Johbe> dist-upgrade from feisty -> gutsy.
[04:54] <rausb0> Rainarrow: if /tmp would be just rwxrwxrwx, it would be a security problem
[04:54] <Rainarrow> rausb0, now I see that my /tmp is listed as draxraxrwt
[04:54] <Johbe> Pici: Yeah sorry.
[04:54] <Devious_> im looking here: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_compile_a_program_from_source_code
[04:54] <macogw> Johbe: ooo
[04:54] <Devious_> but i cant do it
[04:54] <Devious_> and im trying to install Wing-IDE
[04:54] <Pici> Devious_: But _what_ are you trying to compile?
[04:54] <Devious_> Wing-IDE
[04:54] <rausb0> Rainarrow: not a, but w
[04:54] <macogw> Johbe: you might know this already, but make sure 3rd party repos are disabled (if they havent made a gutsy one yet it'll get angry)
[04:54] <Rainarrow> rausb0, ok it's a typo
[04:54] <Rainarrow> sorry
[04:55] <rausb0> Rainarrow: ah okay
[04:55] <macogw> i assume you know to change your sources.list
[04:55] <Johbe> I just replaced all feisty with gutsy and did update/dist-upgrade
[04:55] <Devious_> can i talk to some1 for a minute or to in PM, im totaly confused?
[04:55] <Johbe> it didn't complain about anything.
[04:55] <macogw> Johbe: ok
[04:55] <Johbe> so I suppose the repositories are working as intended.
[04:56] <Helzibah> Devious_: what errors are you getting? (Can't promise to help, but more info is needed!)

[04:56] <m42> if a traceroute fails but the site is working fine when you check it with TOR who do you call to fix it
[04:56] <m42> your isp or the last server in the traceroute
[04:56] <Access> hello
[04:56] <Access> Where would I find, the mounted C drive for Wine...
[04:56] <macogw> access: ~/.wine
[04:57] <Matir> m42: well, if someone is blocking it, it would be the last server in the traceroute
[04:57] <SlimeyPete> /home/username/.wine/c_drive I think, Access
[04:57] <SlimeyPete> or something similar
[04:57] <Access> I cant see it in Nautilus
[04:57] <Access> Is it invisible?
[04:57] <macogw> access: yes, hidden. hit ctrl+h
[04:58] <Helzibah> Access: folders starting with "." are all hidden
[04:58] <macogw> access: all config folders start with .'s and are therefore hidden
[04:58] <Access> oh ffs, I thought hiding shit was a Mac/Windows thing :P
[04:58] <Access> *Serverely disapointed*
[04:58] <Access> Can I just show all permadently?
[04:58] <MacDrunk> so nobody sleppexx
[04:59] <macogw> access: if you ctrl+h it'll stay shown til you do that again
[04:59] <Access> okay cool
[04:59] <Access> Thanks :D
[04:59] <Access> Oh thats much better
[04:59] <Access> Now I might be able to understand where the hell everything is
[04:59] <nooga> heh, it seems i failed to install skype in 32 chroot
[04:59] <Johbe> 50% downloaded :)
[05:00] <Johbe> exciting, it will probably mess up my X server and everything else tho :P

[05:07] <webpirate> I found a new bug with the new Kernel....anyone willing to help?
[05:08] <webpirate> The bud is that none of my 3 digital cameras work in ubunut
[05:08] <webpirate> man I  an't spell today
[05:08] <Matir> webpirate, did they work before?
[05:08] <webpirate> Yes..
[05:08] <webpirate> they workes before the kernel update..
[05:08] <walkover> thats not a pretty solution
[05:08] <walkover> ill do without
[05:09] <Rainarrow> roadfish, in synaptic there is a "Mark for Manual Installation" option in the right-click menu
[05:09] <Rainarrow> roadfish, guess it's related with your problem
[05:09] <webpirate> Then I formatted and re-install ubuntu to see if I messed something up...after clean install and kernel update not working still..
[05:09] <webpirate> they work with Fedora 6...
[05:09] <webpirate> I REFUSE to go back to windows....
[05:10] <Pici> webpirate: new kernel? Are you on Feisty or Gutsy?
[05:10] <webpirate> Feisty...
[05:10] <Rainarrow> webpirate, I can't see how camera is related to kernel, what do you mean, that your camera doesn't work?
[05:10] <mthed> i have to go back to windows for the games, but i still use linux for anything else.
[05:10] <erUSUL> webpirate: you can use the old one

[05:18] <Rainarrow> crazylazy, I guess it's difficult at least

[05:21] <Scunizi> I'm going to put Ubuntu on my wifes machine with her xp in a VM.  Should I use Feisty until Gutsy final or just go with Gutsy and let it do the upgrades?
[05:21] <webpirate> then in the programs you have to tell it to use XV
[05:21] <webpirate> like in xine or mplayer
[05:21] <_Lops88_> how can move to usb drive by text command??
[05:21] <Oney_> Can anyone help me pleeeeeaaaase?
[05:21] <dgjones> Scunizi, better stick with fiesty as gutsy is still in development and isn't always guaranteed to work
[05:22] <Scunizi> _Lops88_: cd /media/nameofusbdrive
 Whats up?
[05:22] <crazylazy> Is gutsy a new kubuntu?
[05:22] <faileas> no
[05:22] <dgjones> !gutsy | crazylazy
[05:22] <Ubotu> crazylazy: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[05:22] <faileas> its a new everything ;)
 I am new to Linux so I apologize, but I'm trying to figure out how to change the theme of the panels.
[05:22] <Scunizi> dgjones: are we out of alpha and into beta with Gutsy yet?
[05:22] <KlrSpz> where the hell do these stupid ass names come from?
[05:22] <SlimeyPete> crazylazy: new ubuntu, kubuntu, edubuntu, everything :)
[05:22] <webpirate> what do you mean by panels?
[05:22] <KlrSpz> gutsy? fiesty?
[05:23] <crazylazy> soo gutsy has the new features that kde didn't have before?
[05:23] <dgjones> Scunizi, i think its still alpha with bug fixes coming through, you're best asking that in #ubuntu+1
[05:23] <KlrSpz> gutsy != kde
 I have beryl themes and such but the only thing I can't change is the panels (like taskbar/start menu)
[05:23] <SlimeyPete> KlrSpz: people suggested them when Ubuntu started out IIRC. They're all adjectives followed by animal names.
[05:23] <Scunizi> dgjones: thanks
[05:23] <mthed> Oney_If your using ubuntu go to system > preferences > theme
[05:23] <SlimeyPete> crazylazy: no,but you will be able to install kde4 from Adept
[05:23] <KlrSpz> SlimeyPete: odd... but alright
[05:24] <faileas> kde4 is out?
[05:24] <SlimeyPete> Gutsy Gibbon is the full name, IIRC
[05:24] <webpirate> What do you want to change?
[05:24] <crazylazy> So it doesn't have a login list like in winxp?
[05:24] <SlimeyPete> faileas: not yet
[05:24] <webpirate> like the icons and stuff like that?
[05:24] <Jowi> Oney_, beryl only take care of the look of the window border. the buttons, scrollbars, panel etc is gnome (gtk to be exact)
 this shows some of the window themes, but I use beryl for my window themes, I'm looking to change the look of the taskbar.
 yeah, that's what I'm trying to change.
[05:24] <znag> hello, anyone here using a creative x-fi card and can confirm that its working with feisty?
[05:25] <mthed> ah, okay. Sorry, don't know about that.
[05:25] <crazylazy> Does gutsy have login lists like winxp?
[05:25] <Jowi> Oney_, mthed is right. you need to have a look in the gnome theme preferences.
[05:25] <webpirate> I am not sure if you can change it with beryl but you can change things on the task bar seperatly my right clickin one things
[05:25] <Pici> crazylazy: I believe you can setup a login list in your GDM login settings.
[05:26] <crazylazy> Can somebody hack my computer and install gutsy?
[05:26] <KlrSpz> ??????????//
[05:26] <crazylazy> Would you need my ip too hack me?
[05:26] <faileas> i doubt
[05:26] <KlrSpz> what the hell is wrong with you
[05:26] <Jowi> crazylazy, your nickname suit you so well :)
[05:26] <Pici> crazylazy: Gutsy is not yet released. It is not ready for people to run it who are not testing it.
[05:27] <webpirate> Yes....GDM or KDM have login lists in the settings
[05:27] <crazylazy> So can you hack me and give me feisty?
[05:27] <Oney_> And another question I have, I've seen a lot of screenshots where the bottom panel is replaced with a panel similar to OS X, how can I get that?
[05:28] <faileas> crazylazy: sure, put the cd in, and start the install ;p
[05:28] <crazylazy> I can't boot from cd's
[05:28] <Svish> how can I restart for example only the ubuntu gui?
[05:28] <webpirate> Settings --> System Administration --> Login Manager
[05:29] <dgjones> crazylazy, change your boot order in the bios, that normally works
[05:29] <selinuxium> Hi all, is there a whitepaper for setting up a SOHO ubuntu office?
[05:29] <webpirate> The OSX panel is called KXdocker....but warings it's really buggy
[05:29] <Jowi> crazylazy, 1. download the feisty cd from ubuntu.com. 2. Enter your BIOS/CMOS settings and set that the cdrom should be bootable (or that the cdrom should boot before the harddisk) 3. pop the cd in the drive and reboot the computer. 4. once booted, click on the install icon on the desktop.
[05:29] <crazylazy> It has a bios password, it is a laptop, and i can't find the bios battery

[05:42] <biotrox> so i ask how to in channel pdigin
[05:43] <biotrox> and they ask me to do the command i paste in at http://pastebin.com/d6bc77b93
[05:43] <dgjones> biotrox, have you tried www.getdeb.net for a package you can install?
[05:43] <Oney_> and there is the biggest list of things in here and they aren't catagorized like, [cough] windows[/cough] 
[05:43] <Jowi> [coca1ne] , /join #myownchanneltotestscriptin and test it in there.

[05:46] <linux__alien> [coca1ne] : and i pressed tab but it didnot find the partition so i gave find /boot/grub/stage1
[05:46] <paulcooperorama> why can a windows machine get files from this ubuntu machine?
[05:46] <Skyfalcon866> Jowl: go to getdeb.net and get pidgin from there
[05:47] <webpirate> There are programs for windows that can read linux filesystems...
[05:47] <linux__alien> [coca1ne] : and after that i gave root(hd1) and then enter and then gave setup(hd1) and enter though it says updated but nothing happens
[05:47] <webpirate> so no worries...
[05:47] <Jowi> biotrox, I have edgy and the build-dep for "gaim" works. perhaps check your repos and try another repo...
[05:47] <linux__alien> [coca1ne] : nothing happens] 
[05:47] <Pici> paulcooperorama: Are you talking about sharing  over a network?
[05:47] <paulcooperorama> pici -- yes
[05:47] <linux__alien> [coca1ne] : could you please help me ?
[05:47] <Oney_> I know I'm supposed to get help in ubuntu effects but no one there is responding and the help I need is just finding a setting I changed by accident and can't find to change it back, so can someone here help me? =\
[05:47] <Pici> !samba > paulcooperorama (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[05:48] <paulcooperorama> pici --  I have samba installed
[05:48] <Pici> Oney_: What setting?
[05:48] <webpirate> A question for real linux users> Do you ever get the feeling that some people should just stick to windows....
[05:48] <Pici> webpirate: #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:48] <Oney_> When I hover over a window with my mouse for a few seconds it takes focus, even if I don't click on it.
[05:48] <Oney_> I remember setting it but can't find where it was. Stupid me... LoL
[05:48] <linux__alien> could some one help me please? there is no one to help me
[05:48] <webpirate> oh yea...sorry...forgot
[05:49] <Pici> Oney_: I dont remember where that is... I usually stay far away from it though.
[05:49] <Skyfalcon866> i dropped windows back in may 2007
 whats up
[05:49] <paulcooperorama> pici -- I can give files to them but they can not get on my machine
[05:49] <Oney_> Can someone help me find it? =S
[05:49] <linux__alien> webpirate: thanks for your reply
[05:49] <webpirate> I am on my 2nd year windows free..
[05:49] <linux__alien> webpirate: i installed ubuntu 7.04 and then installed windows XP and it over wrote my MBR and i cannot lose my data
[05:49] <Pici> paulcooperorama: I believe that the link in the samba factoid should tell you how to set that up.
[05:50] <Pici> paulcooperorama: There are more steps than just installing samba
[05:50] <linux__alien> webpirate: now i dont know how to recover GRUB so had a look at the manual and did the following mentioned in the web site
[05:50] <linux__alien> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[05:50] <linux__alien> webpirate: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[05:50] <webpirate> so windows boots up with no linux options? is that right?
[05:50] <linux__alien> webpirate: yes
[05:50] <linux__alien> webpirate: i dont get GRUB menu at all
[05:51] <webpirate> well there are 2 things you can do.....
[05:51] <linux__alien> webpirate: ya tell me please
[05:51] <cappiz> how can i completly reinstall init files/conf ?
[05:51] <webpirate> 1) somewhere in the grub manual there should be options to repair the MBR or you can download a program for windows that lets you read linux filesystems...
[05:52] <webpirate> I will see if I can find the grub command
[05:52] <stefg> linux__alien: not even an *Press esc to enter menu* ?
[05:52] <linux__alien> webpirate: one sec just have a look at this link
[05:52] <Oney_> no one can help me find that setting? =(

[05:53] <biotrox> jowl | i'm searching in getdebs.. from my edgy.. but didn't find any pidgin for my edgy :(
[05:53] <Pici> biotrox: Its possible a deb does not exist for edgy.
[05:53] <bibstha> how to switch keyboard layout by a shortcut?
[05:53] <webpirate> I would suggest getting a program for windows that read Lnux Filesystems get your files and then start over...installing windows first..then linux
[05:53] <bibstha> i have to use mouse right now
[05:53] <webpirate> Or Linux only.....
[05:54] <Jowi> biotrox, me neither. it dos not exist. but as you tried "gaim" exist and its sources as well.
[05:54] <Jowi> s/dos/does
[05:54] <linux__alien> webpirate: thats for RedHat i believe
[05:54] <biotrox> i'm using gaim right now
[05:54] <biotrox> just want to install pidgin
[05:54] <biotrox> :(
[05:54] <linux__alien> webpirate: but for ubuntu i gave u a link but that does not work
[05:54] <Jowi> biotrox, but the error you showed from the pastebin was to build-dep gaim.
[05:54] <linux__alien> webpirate: whats given in that link does not work
[05:55] <linux__alien> but thats what people say here
[05:55] <linux__alien> i dont know how that works
[05:55] <linux__alien> that does not work at all
[05:55] <biotrox> ya and i don't know what the command is really for..
[05:55] <biotrox> :D
[05:55] <biotrox> beginner
[05:55] <webpirate> should work for any linux distro
[05:55] <Oney_> I'm getting irritated trying to figure this damn thing out. I've went through every single setting 6 times so far and can't find it.

[05:56] <Skyfalcon866> when will ext4 be able to use
[05:56] <Oney_> Where should I get help configuring synergy?
[05:57] <Skyfalcon866> can i use gutsy now
[05:57] <Pici> Oney_: You could try #synergy
[05:57] <webpirate> That help page all looks right....
[05:57] <linux__alien> stefg: is there an easy method to just recover the data . Its very urgent for me and hence i got hold of a link but i dont know whether is that the proper way to do it. Someone here gave me the link
[05:57] <webpirate> there is a slight chance that you delelted the partition....
[05:58] <Skyfalcon866> how do i install the latest kernel
[05:58] <linux__alien> webpirate: i dont get the menu
[05:58] <Pici> Skyfalcon866: If you have to ask... its probably not a good idea.  We are still testing and as such things will not work and may break your system.
[05:58] <Skyfalcon866> ok
[05:58] <rafaelscj> hi all
[05:58] <webpirate> If you just need to get files...just go here
[05:59] <Jowi> biotrox, this is what i found: http://softwaredave.blogspot.com/2007/05/pidgin-on-ubuntu-610-edgy-eft.html
[05:59] <Skyfalcon866> could i try the tribe live cd/
[05:59] <Skyfalcon866> ?
[05:59] <webpirate> http://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/
[05:59] <Oney_> Pici, I tried # synergy and there are only 4 users, no one responding. =\
[05:59] <stefg> linux__alien: 1.) Don't panic 2.) breathe :-) .3.) i came in late, so did not get the beginning. So you installed windows after ubuntu, and windows overwrote ubuntus bootloader, so you have no grun now? That's no big deal
[05:59] <Pici> Oney_: Its the unnoficial support channel, so I'm not very surprised.
[05:59] <linux__alien> if i install Ubuntu again in the same place will Ubuntu try to recover the existing installation ?

[06:03] <anand> thepenguin37: can't you do apt-get remove postfix and then delete the /etc/postfix directory ?
[06:03] <stefg> thepenguin37: use the --purge option with apt-get remove, and doublecheck /etc for a postfix dir to delete
[06:03] <anand> _nand_: if i plug it out, the system works perfect

[06:14] <riaal> Im using Eterm on my desktop, is there some way I can remove the icon from the bottomfeeld?
[06:14] <gustavo> just do: grub-install /dev/hda
[06:14] <linux__alien> i ve 2 hdds and when i typed root ( and pressed tab . i got hd0, hd1 and hence i gave setup hd0  but does not work
[06:14] <ikonia> grub-install isn't the best way to fix a grub issue
[06:14] <linux__alien> sudo grub-install /dev/hda
[06:14] <linux__alien> /dev/hda does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
[06:14] <linux__alien> this is what i get

[06:16] <anand> _nand_: what is this bug and any possible way to get around it ? or do i have to change the card ?
[06:16] <_nand_> anand: could you check the name of the driver loaded for it? lsmod  | grep rt
[06:16] <anand> _nand_: sure
[06:16] <stefg> linux__alien: run 'sudo fdisk -l' in a terminal and put the results to pastebin
[06:16] <anand> _nand_: the driver is rt61

[06:18] <rafaelsc1> How do I to extract a .exe file?
[06:18] <Furthur> abhi_ : any problems?

[06:19] <Furthur> refaelsc : extract? you mean stand alone archive extract?
[06:19] <_nand_> anand: it fixed my problem
[06:19] <gustavo> linux__alien: grub-install --root-directory=/boot /dev/hdc

(these are existing windows users, i dont want to create new users on the windows boxes)
[06:19] <anand> _nand_: ok cool. I will check it out rite now.
[06:19] <linux__alien> stefg: any clues?
[06:19] <xazo> good afternoon
[06:19] <anand> _nand_: thanks for all the help. will update here once i get it running :)
[06:20] <astomper>  I forgot my Fkirefox password, is there anyway to reset it?
[06:20] <gustavo> linux__alien:  try this -> grub-install --root-directory=/boot /dev/hdc
[06:20] <linux__alien> stefg: i want GRUb in my MBR
[06:20] <Furthur> abhi_ : I believe a quick sudo apt-get install sun-java6-doc should do it
[06:20] <MrDeadLock> I use putty to connect to my linux server. Everytime I connect, and then just close the putty window, does that leave an open connection/terminal in my servers memory? or does it kill that connection when i close putty.
[06:20] <_nand_> anand: ok i'd like to hear the results :)
[06:20] <abhi_> Furthur, : thanks man.
[06:20] <gustavo> MrDeadLock: what service?
[06:20] <Furthur> abhi_ : np take it easy... I was actually working on that last night
[06:21] <stefg> linux__alien: 1.) the partition table on /dev/hdc is a mess... 2.) funny enough there is no hda. This means both drives are attched to the second IDE channel (very unclever) and the first drive on first channel is either not present, or a CD rom (super unclever). This may be the cause that grub strikes
[06:21] <gustavo> MrDeadLock: ssh?
[06:21] <xazo> i've used TAR to extract file to directory (vmplayer for linux). how do I install vmplayer ? Here is listing of file in directory -->  bin  doc  etc  FILES  installer  lib  sbin  system_etc  usr  vmware-install.pl
[06:21] <rafaelsc1> how do i to extract .exe files?
[06:21] <anand> _nand_: sure
[06:22] <xazo> if .exe file is created as extractable, only way
[06:22] <xazo> otherwise no can do
[06:22] <Furthur> rafaelsc1 : please elaborate... are you talking about a self extracting archive?
[06:22] <Furthur> rafaelsc1 : try wine
[06:22] <Furthur> !wine
[06:22] <Ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:22] <Jackal> 11111111111111111
[06:22] <xazo> !vmware
[06:22] <Ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[06:22] <rafaelsc1> Furthur, wine is extracting but very very slow
[06:23] <xazo> !tar
[06:23] <Ubotu> Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[06:23] <stefg> linux__alien: since there's only one Linux OS on that system, i'd use the super grub disk and let that autofix for you. you need to look at it from grubs perspective, which is different from the kernel perspective
[06:23] <Jackal> ! nvidia
[06:23] <Ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:23] <linux__alien> stefg: how do i rectify this partition table problem should i reconnect everythig?
[06:23] <MrDeadLock> gustavo: Yes SSH.
[06:23] <Furthur> rafaelsc1 : wine is not an emulator and so extracting should technicaly take just as long as you would on windows
[06:23] <gustavo> MrDeadLock: why dont you just do 'logout' or 'exit'?
[06:24] <Furthur> rafaelsc1 : unless you know for a fact that it should be very speedy and that wine is the culprit
[06:24] <MrDeadLock> I'll start. I just wanted to know whether or not it closes on its own on the servside.
[06:24] <xazo>  i ran "./vmware_install.pl" to manually install vmwware player from tar file.
[06:24] <abhi_> Furthur, : after downloading the javadocs from sun, how do u install the the doc folder in jdk
[06:24] <epiclulz> anyone know where to get tahoma font?
[06:24] <epiclulz> it's not in core ms fonts
[06:25] <rafaelsc1> Furthur, I don't want to spend one entire day extracting 1 Gb, so...
[06:25] <roadfish> my new DVD-reader causes downloading (from my dial up modem) to halt. how can I fix this problem? when I install a new DVD-reader (in place of an old one), is there anything that I should reconfigure?
[06:25] <stefg> linux__alien: would help. generally put harddisks on different controllers, so jumper them both as master, attach hdc to IDE-channel one (so it becomes hda), and jumper hdd as master, so it becomes hdc...
[06:25] <GardenHose> question: how do you get an ip from a router at command line
[06:25] <GardenHose> dhcp isn't working for me
[06:25] <GardenHose> dhcpcd*
[06:25] <boojah> how can i make existing users in a windows workgroup autenticate itself with the samba server when they log on. also, how do i get the users home folder in the fileserver to map as a letter in My Computer
[06:25] <Furthur> abhi_: you might wanna try installing jdk and jre the same way as you did with javadocs
[06:26] <linux__alien> stefg: if i change that should i reinstall Ubuntu and windows again?
[06:26] <riaal> Anyone know how to put more then 9 cases in a script?
[06:26] <MrDeadLock> gustavo: So if i dont go to 'exit' or 'logout' its still on the server ad a process?
[06:26] <Furthur> abhi_ : they would probably work better toghether although It probably wont make much of a difference...I believe its your ide that you should point the javadocs location to
[06:26] <rausb0> riaal: you mean more than 9 arguments?
[06:27] <boojah> join #samba
[06:27] <Furthur> rafaelsc1: 1gig normally takes a little while
[06:27] <stefg> linux__alien: no... it just takes some configuration. I'd fix the harddisk connections and run the super grub disk... autofix should work
[06:27] <Shockman> after a big update should i reboot or logout ?
[06:27] <linux__alien> stefg:thanks
[06:27] <linux__alien> will do that
[06:27] <slashzul_> what tools are available for broad management of many ubuntu workstations?
[06:27] <linux__alien> stefg: i should just change the jumper settings in both hard disks right?
[06:27] <Furthur> rafaelsc1: again, unless it stalled because of wine, you wont find it much faster on windows
[06:28] <Furthur> rafaelsc1: patience my friend
[06:28] <abhi_> Furthur, . yes
[06:28] <stefg> linux__alien: hdc is already a master, just connect it to the other port, hdd needs a jumper job, but stays on the same connector
[06:28] <Deepa> I booted a Ubuntu CD and want to install it
[06:28] <Deepa> unfortunately I have not access to a mouse
[06:29] <linux__alien> stefg:in the motherboard right?
[06:29] <rafaelscj> Furthur, I think under windows it was faster :(
[06:29] <mdh> Hi... is there a way to install Ubuntu on a system today (ie not ordering stuff that needs to be delivered) if you do not have any blank CD's around?
[06:29] <gabby> How do I completly remove an application, if I've made a complete has of all it's config files, and I want a fresh install of it?
[06:29] <Deepa> any suggestions on how to mark Install that's on the desktop?
[06:29] <astomper>  I forgot my Firefox password, is there anyway to reset it?
[06:29] <slashzul_> apt-get remove packagename
[06:29] <Furthur> abhi_ : you need to know the location of javadocs? look up the package in synaptics and check under properties > installed files
[06:29] <slashzul_> what tools are available for broad management of many ubuntu workstations?
[06:29] <stefg> linux__alien: no besides the IDE connector on the harddisk. there's a drawing on top of the hd-enclosure...
[06:29] <slashzul_> is ubuntu scalable for large corps?
[06:29] <gabby> slashzul_: That just removes the package - I thought you needed other options to remove every associated file too
[06:30] <bastid_raZor> when i insert a dvd-r i get a popup asking what to do with it.. how do i disable that pop up?
[06:30] <Furthur> gabby: in synaptics : completly remove package next time
[06:30] <MrDeadLock> Is there a way to close all  SSH sessions? that are running on the server.
[06:30] <GardenHose> question: how do you get an ip from a router at command line, dhcpcd isn't working for me
[06:30] <abhi_> Furthur: ok
[06:30] <Furthur> gabby: for now, filter as status and find it in Not installed (residual config)
[06:30] <rafaelscj> Furthur, it is a winrar self-extracting
[06:30] <stefg> !install | mdh
[06:30] <Ubotu> mdh: 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
[06:30] <rausb0> Deepa: open the file manager with alt-f1 menu, places, desktop
[06:30] <faileas> shut down openssh sever?
[06:31] <ikonia> MrDeadLock sudo kill -9 `ps -ef | grep sshd | awk '{print $1}'`
[06:31] <nox-Hand> What would be the easiest way to record my screen without making everything lagg like hell? :)
[06:31] <mdh> thanks
[06:31] <karhu_> can anyone in here help me with beryl there doesnt seem to be anyone around in the ubuntu-effects channel
[06:31] <rausb0> Deepa: there you should see the installed icon and select it
[06:31] <rausb0> *installer
[06:31] <ikonia> karhu_ thats the correct support location
[06:31] <bastid_raZor> nox-Hand: get a better computer
[06:31] <kevinO> how do i add a custom splash screen to ubuntu?
[06:32] <karhu_> yeah i know but there doesnt seem to be anyone about i waited for quite a while
[06:32] <ikonia> kevinO bootsplash or grub splash ?
[06:32] <nox-Hand> bastid_raZor: lol, but what app would you recommend?
[06:32] <gabby> Furthur: Is there a way to do that using the command line?
[06:32] <ikonia> karhu_ its is an active channel
[06:32] <kevinO> ikonia: a bootsplash
[06:32] <aguitel> when i try to boot in win xp nothing happens ,how fix this ?
[06:32] <stefg> karhu: XGL related questions are considered offtopic in here (otherwise the channle would be even more busy than it is now)
[06:32] <bastid_raZor> nox-Hand: that i wouldn't know ;)
[06:32] <ikonia> !bootsplash >kevin0
[06:32] <nox-Hand> =D
[06:32] <kevinO> thanks
[06:32] <Furthur> rafaelscj: im quite sure winrar self extraction is fully supported, if you are sure that it would be faster on windows then perhaps exdtract on windows and trasfer by usb or other method
[06:32] <rafaelscj> Furthur, how do I to extract a .rar file? wine?
[06:32] <Furthur> rafaelscj: personally I find applicaitons in wine are faster in linux
[06:32] <Taladan> rafaelscj: apt-get install unrar
[06:32] <karhu_> ok well how do i remove beryl from a term then please ??
[06:33] <Taladan> then unrar x <file>
[06:33] <kevinO> !bootsplash | kevinO
[06:33] <rafaelscj> Taladan, thanks
[06:33] <ikonia> karhu_ you've just been told its off-topic 3 times, why haveyou just asked ?
[06:33] <stefg> aguitel: you mean your ubuntu does not boot anymore?
[06:33] <rafaelscj> Furthur, tnks you
[06:33] <kevinO> ikonia: ubotu didnt know anything
[06:33] <shaffy> would anyone be able to help me connect to my WPA wireless network?  i'm running ubuntu 7.04, and am having trouble connecting.
[06:33] <karhu_> im now asking for an apt-get command to remove a package i have installed sorry to upset u but i just need a hand
[06:33] <Furthur> rafaelscj: I believe once unrar is installed, you can extract by simply right clicking the file in question and clicking "extract here"
[06:34] <ikonia> karhu_ beryl is more than a package, its a whole lot of changes, even to remove
[06:34] <ikonia> apt-get remove is the package removal command though
[06:34] <aguitel> stefg ,my problem is with win xp ,now i am in ubuntu
[06:34] <rafaelscj> Furthur, i will try it
[06:34] <karhu_> ikonia thankyou
[06:34] <stefg> aguitel: this is nt a windows support channel :-)
[06:34] <Furthur> rafaelscj : good luck ;)
[06:35] <aguitel> stefg, how fix grub?
[06:36] <stefg> aguitel: so you don't have a 'windows' item in your boot menu?
[06:36] <hammy> Hello, i just revomed beryl completely with synaptic and reinstalled it afther, but it seems to use the same ini parameters
[06:36] <JeevesMoss> can someone give me a hand figuring out my my LAMP server won't show PHP pages, and when it does, it won't connect to the MySQL DB?
[06:36] <ikonia> hammy apt-get remove --purge
[06:36] <riotkittie> if i cant use network-manager(-gnome?) its kosher to remove it, eh?
[06:36] <ikonia> JeevesMoss define won't connect
[06:37] <drhumanist> hi, i cannot use bluetooth services in feisty
[06:37] <stefg> !beryl | hammy
[06:37] <Ubotu> hammy: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[06:37] <drhumanist> is there a graphical interface?
[06:37] <hammy> oke, tnx, is that better than synaptic?
[06:37] <aguitel> stefg, it appears in the grub list but do not boot in windows when i press enter key to that
[06:37] <Nikonskewl> greetings
[06:37] <gluttony> where do i go to turn of that sound that plays at the login screen?
[06:37] <drhumanist> i installed all packages relevant
[06:37] <Nikonskewl> While in school the networking picked up a wap as encrypted.. but its not.
[06:37] <Enquest> I have the following problem:  "locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory"
[06:38] <Furthur> riotkittie : unless it a dependency for other apps, its just another package, dont see why not
[06:38] <Nikonskewl> anyone ever had that problem? It didnt show it as encrypted yesterday
[06:38] <stefg> aguitel: the probably the 'chainloader' entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst points to the wrong partition. Did you change your partition layout?
[06:38] <JeevesMoss> ikonia:  well, first....  any scripts (in PHP) that were trying to connect (to do an install, etc) or web apps could not connect to do a DB query, but now, my server won't even serve up php pages.  have a look @ www.penn-tawsha.net
[06:38] <kevinO> ikonia, !bootsplash didnt work
[06:38] <linux4me> i'm trying to install fiesty from a usb drive following https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/installation-guide/i386/boot-usb-files.html, where can i find initrd.gz.  i followed the istructions and the usb drive boot up until the choose language screen and freezes at that point. any ideas on how to troubleshoot?
[06:38] <kevinO> !bootsplash
[06:38] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bootsplash - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:38] <Furthur> glutonny : System : administration : login window
[06:38] <Enquest> when i do dpkg-reconfigure locales I can't set the languages
[06:38] <gabby> How to I remove a package via the command line, so that not only is the package gone, but all the config files, every last trace? with apt?
[06:38] <aguitel> stefg ,ony reinstalling ubuntu i did
[06:39] <Nikonskewl> !aptget
[06:39] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about aptget - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:39] <drhumanist> any help on graphical Bluetooth interface?
[06:39] <ikonia> JeevesMoss you need to do the AddType and AddHandler lines in apache, make sure you have php installed as it nomrmally adds them for you
[06:39] <Furthur> gabby: add --purge
[06:39] <stefg> aguitel: so where does your windows live ?
[06:39] <kevinO> does anyone know how to change to a custom bootsplash?
[06:39] <stefg> !usplash | kevinO
[06:39] <Ubotu> kevinO: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[06:40] <gabby> Furthur: That's it I remembee now!
[06:40] <JeevesMoss> ikonia:  do you know of a good "howto" on the net that shows the complete list of deps required?
[06:40] <kevinO> thanks
[06:40] <Furthur> gabby: or hunt down your ini probably simply in a hidden folder (folder with . in front) in /home/user
[06:40] <fantazyia> I am having an issue with my MS explorer 4.0 mouse being very sluggish.  clicks dont always register and dragging windows is sometimes almost impossible.  Does anyone else have this issue or know how to possibly fix it?

[06:40] <ikonia> sorry
[06:40] <gluttony> Furthur, thanks, i didnt notice that
[06:40] <ikonia> JeevesMoss you don't need a how to for deps - as the ubuntu package manager finds all the deps for you
[06:40] <ikonia> JeevesMoss how did you install php / apache / mysql  ?
[06:40] <Furthur> gluttony : np man
[06:41] <JeevesMoss> ikonia:  yes, I've installed them in mysql, apache, php5
[06:41] <ikonia> JeevesMoss did you use synaptic/apt-get
[06:41] <JeevesMoss> ikonia:  yes
[06:41] <ikonia> JeevesMoss if you do "dpkg -l | grep php5" do you get many results returned ?
[06:42] <ikonia> JeevesMoss are you using ubuntu fesity ?

[06:45] <JeevesMoss> ikonia:  apache2ctl?
[06:45] <ikonia> JeevesMoss yes, apache2ctl restart
[06:45] <stefg> aguitel: wait.... there's something really wrong with your partition table on sda1.... as i see just now
[06:45] <ikonia> JeevesMoss sudo apache2ctl restart
[06:45] <bigbang14> ubuntu cant detect disks in my drive, i dont know if its a faulty drive or software
[06:45] <gluttony> what do i need to do to so i can write files to my windows drive, or access my linux drive from windows?
[06:45] <ikonia> gluttony for linux to windows you need to either use samba or ntfs-3g packages
[06:46] <francois> gluttony: and you can install drivers for the windows to read and write to linux ext2/ext3
[06:46] <martin_> hi everyone, would anybody to tell me how to reorganise my music library into the folder structure artist/album/tracks.mp3 with easytag? apparently it's possible but i can't work it out
[06:46] <RainCT> hi
[06:46] <JeevesMoss> ikonia:  I just use /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[06:46] <ikonia> JeevesMoss ok, thats reasonable
[06:46] <aguitel> stefg ,i yes windows is in sda :menu.list :http://pastebin.com/d7e58ffa1
[06:46] <rausb0> ikonia: samba is not for windows accessing linux files on the same machine
[06:46] <ikonia> JeevesMoss check out your apache config dir and look for AddType lines for php
[06:46] <ikonia> rausb0 I didn't say it was
[06:46] <gluttony> ikonia, what do i need to do to do that?
[06:47] <RainCT> is there a way to let a script be executed as root by users without sudo privileges?
[06:47] <Helzibah> !hi RainCT
[06:47] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hi rainct - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:47] <ikonia> thats why I said samba or ntfs-3g depending on requirements
[06:47] <rausb0> ikonia: i thought it was a dual boot scenario
[06:47] <gluttony> francois, where do i get those drivers?
[06:47] <JeevesMoss> ikonia:  what specifically am I looking for?
[06:47] <ikonia> rausb0 I don't know, he wo'nt say
[06:47] <ikonia> JeevesMoss I've just told you exactly what your looking for
[06:47] <bigbang14> ubuntu cant detect disks in my drive, i dont know if its a faulty drive or software
[06:47] <ikonia> gluttony https://help.ubuntu.com search for ntfs-3g
[06:47] <CoasterMaster> !ntfs-3g | gluttony
[06:48] <Ubotu> gluttony: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[06:48] <stefg> aguitel: teh menu.lst looks good for a windows living on sda1... but have a look: sda1 isn't a valid partition. something broke your partition table on /dev/sda
[06:48] <francois> gluttony: just google it, quite easy to find,
[06:48] <francois> gluttony: if you're really stuck i'll find them for you
[06:48] <JeevesMoss> ikonia:  it's still telling me (from the web browser) to save the PHP file
[06:49] <CoasterMaster> francois: already linked him
[06:49] <stefg> aguitel: high time for a backup
[06:49] <gluttony> francois, google what? just windows ext2/3 drivers?
[06:49] <aguitel> stefg ,ok
[06:50] <francois> gluttony: yup, and coastermaster linked you up already, check it out
[06:50] <francois> can someone help me with tomsrtbt ?
[06:50] <Oney> #beryl
[06:50] <bastid_raZor> how would i disable the popup that shows up when i insert a blank dvd?
[06:50] <francois> can someone help me install ubuntu on a machine that can't boot from cd ?
[06:51] <rausb0> francois: tomsrtbt is a single floppy distro and has nothing to do with ubuntu
[06:51] <stefg> !install francois
[06:51] <gluttony> oh, he linked me how to write to the windows drive right? thats what the page im on says
[06:51] <rausb0> francois: so it is rather off topic
[06:51] <stefg> !install | francois
[06:51] <Ubotu> francois: 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
[06:51] <francois> rausb0: i know, but I have no other way to think how to load up ubuntu on this machine,
[06:51] <CoasterMaster> gluttony, yeah, that will show you how to write to windows drives
[06:51] <rausb0> francois: why?
[06:52] <stefg> francois: usb port available?
[06:52] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, francois, ikonia, thank you
[06:52] <francois> rausb0: its a old machine, and doesn't have the original cd rom drive, so after crashing i don't have the drivers for it, so it doesn't boot from cdrom anymore, and i can't think of other way to boot ubuntu
[06:52] <francois> stefg: can't get them to work, its a old Pentium 2
[06:52] <rausb0> francois: how old? how much ram?
[06:53] <francois> rausb0: 128mgs of ram, old pentium 2, 233mhz
[06:53] <rausb0> francois: you won't have much fun with such an old machine and a recent distro
[06:53] <Tomcat_> bastid_raZor: Removable media settings
[06:54] <francois> rausb0: I know, but I just want it to run terminal, no X
[06:54] <gabby> francois: Take out the HD, do an install on it, then put it back into the PII
[06:54] <francois> gabby: you mean throw the hd into another computer ?
[06:54] <stefg> francois: you can try the SBM-floppy, which could get you to boot the CD, or you can try if you manage to do a netinstall from floppy
[06:54] <rausb0> francois: ah okay. and the only boot medium is floppy?
[06:54] <Tenso> Francois: id reccomend damn small linux
[06:54] <gabby> francois: Yes, I'm going to assume - it's got IDE drives?
[06:54] <rausb0> Tenso: the cd drive is broken..
[06:54] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, i just got an error when i ran ntfs-config
[06:55] <francois> gabby: yes, ide drives
[06:55] <CoasterMaster> gluttony, what is the error?
[06:55] <riaal> anyone running devilspie?
[06:55] <francois> stefg: sbm floppy eh ?
[06:55] <bastid_raZor> Tomcat_: thanks.. that should of been easy to find but i'm retarded and can only read the white letters
[06:55] <gabby> francois: Okay, then do an install on another computer, maybe use Damn small linux, but personally, I'd suggest xubuntu - giving you a super fast window manager etc
[06:55] <stefg> !sbm
[06:55] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sbm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:55] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, Mounting /media/sda1 failed.
[06:55] <Tenso> Hmm... You can use a usb stck but maybe not in such an old machine
[06:55] <gluttony> Volume is scheduled for check. Please boot into Windows TWICE, or
[06:55] <gluttony> use the 'force' mount option. For example type on the command line:
[06:55] <gluttony>     mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/disk/by-uuid/7339971A61F9BC7A /media/sda1 -o force
[06:55] <gluttony> Or add the option to the relevant row in the /etc/fstab file:
[06:55] <gluttony>     /dev/disk/by-uuid/7339971A61F9BC7A /media/sda1 ntfs-3g defaults,force 0 0
[06:56] <gabby> SBM, Super Boot Manager - If I remember correctly.... or is that just what I call it?
[06:56] <Pici> !paste | gluttony
[06:56] <Ubotu> gluttony: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:56] <rausb0> gabby: smart boot manager
[06:56] <francois> gabby: smart boot manager i think
[06:56] <godlygeek> So, as of feisty or gutsy, is there any way to get hibernate (swsusp? uswsusp?) to use a swap file, rather than a swap partition?
[06:56] <the^user> is ther a sulotiom
[06:56] <rausb0> gabby: yes, that's maybe worth a try
[06:56] <stefg> Francois Smart boot manager.. a floppy which has some bios functions so that it allows to boot from CD, even if the Bios doesn't do it
[06:56] <the^user> if xp not boot
[06:56] <the^user> and thje ndhl boot is gone for xp
[06:56] <gabby> francois: So - What's your next course of action gonna be?
[06:56] <francois> stefg: ok, thanks, i'll give this all a try, i'll be back soon, let you guys konw :)
[06:56] <hunteke> I'm having problems with network manager app, namely getting it set up.  How do I add it to the list of applets that I can add to my desktop bar, or, alternatively, how do I directly add it to the desktop bar?  Of note: I did not install Feisty off the iso, I upgraded from edgy via inet
[06:56] <CoasterMaster> gluttony, that means one of your windows drives is damaged (and ntfs-3g drivers will refuse to load it).  by following the directions you have (typing the command in or editing /etc/fstab) you can force ntfs-3g to mount it
[06:57] <hunteke> can anyone help?
[06:57] <francois> gabby: try smart boot manager, and then try removing the hard drive
[06:57] <gabby> francois: Brilliant, that's what I would have done
[06:57] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, is it save to do that?
[06:57] <stefg> francois: freedos and loadlin ?
[06:57] <gluttony> safe*
[06:58] <francois> stefg: i don't know what those are ?
[06:58] <CoasterMaster> gluttony, yeah, for the most part, but you might want to boot back into windows to fix the drive
[06:58] <gabby> stefg: Lets not kill him! lol
[06:58] <rausb0> stefg: i don't know if loadlin can handle kernel 2.6
[06:58] <stefg> francois: i'll tell you if the SBM floppy dosn't work
[06:58] <stefg> rausb0: good point
[06:58] <francois> stefg: ok thank you, be back soon
[06:58] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, sadly i have been trying forever to fix it. i do a check disk and tell it to fix errors and it doesnt do anything
[06:59] <rausb0> stefg: last time i used it was with 2.4.27
[06:59] <CoasterMaster> gluttony, how old is the drive?
[06:59] <hunteke> regarding network manager applet (nm-applet), can someone point me towards where to ask?
[06:59] <dstadulis> if I want to run dosbox on ubuntu, which version should I choose? gentoo, fedora, beos?  http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/download.php?main=1
[06:59] <gabby> Anyone in here good with using metasploit?
[06:59] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, pretty new, i got the laptop a few months ago
[07:00] <stefg> !info dosbox
[07:00] <Ubotu> dosbox: A x86 emulator with Tandy/Herc/CGA/EGA/VGA/SVGA graphics, sound and DOS. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.65-1 (feisty), package size 506 kB, installed size 1388 kB
[07:00] <CoasterMaster> gluttony, hmmm. you should be fine forcing a mount....just copy and paste that mount command it gave you and see if it works
[07:00] <stefg> dstadulis: that one!
[07:00] <stefg> dstadulis: don't download, apt-get rather
[07:01] <dstadulis> got it
[07:01] <rausb0> dstadulis: don't download it from http://dosbox.sourceforge.net, install it as a package with apt-get
[07:01] <dstadulis> lol I already have it
[07:01] <dstadulis> my memory is failing
[07:01] <Rotterdam> sudo apt-get install dosbox (Feisty)
[07:01] <dstadulis> :/
[07:02] <rausb0> dstadulis: run memtest86 on yourself :)
[07:02] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, ok i forced it, should i run nfts-config? see, the drive works which is the wierd part, to me its weird
[07:02] <dstadulis> honestly I should
[07:02] <Gizmo_the_Great> Hi. If someone said to you "Have you downloaded and installed the FUSE developer libraries and include files?" what do they mean?
[07:02] <Gizmo_the_Great> FUSE is an application BTW
[07:03] <CoasterMaster> gluttony, is the drive mounted now?
[07:03] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, it said it was
[07:03] <CoasterMaster> gluttony, can you write to it?
[07:03] <faileas> Gizmo_the_Great: probably the _devel filed for fuse
[07:03] <stefg> Gizmo_the_Great: that means you need to apt-get the fuse-*-dev packages
[07:03] <faileas> files
[07:03] <hunteke> !info nm-applet
[07:03] <Ubotu> Package nm-applet does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[07:03] <rafaelscj> do you know if wine runs programs that wasn't installed?
[07:04] <faileas> it can run portable windows apps
[07:04] <faileas> and things like utorrent
[07:04] <PriceChild> !info network-manager | hunteke
[07:04] <rausb0> Gizmo_the_Great: fuse is filesystem in userspace. apt-get install libfuse-dev
[07:04] <Ubotu> hunteke: network-manager: network management framework daemon. In component main, is optional. Version 0.6.4-6ubuntu7 (feisty), package size 234 kB, installed size 584 kB
[07:04] <willo> now why would you run utorrent with wine?
[07:04] <fermatstheorem> hello all. question on the gnome network applet - how do i make it give me the status message (disconnected/acquiring IP/ connected/blink when i get data)
[07:05] <riaal> I need some help, I have installed fedora on my ps3 and wont to acces my ubuntu nfs share, I get permission denied. I have isolated to problem to be folder access (777 works) any sugestios on what to do if I don't want the files to be 777 ?
[07:05] <Gizmo_the_Great> rausb0, stefg faileas - that is what I thought but I have already installed libfuse-dev
[07:05] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, yup thanks. just curious, can you think of anywhere i can get help dealing with the dirty drive?
[07:05] <rausb0> Gizmo_the_Great: what are you trying to compile?
[07:05] <CoasterMaster> gluttony, i
[07:05] <stefg> willo: because azureus sucks even more, and ktorrent and deluge aren't real competitors ?
[07:05] <CoasterMaster> gluttony, i'm  not sure, unfortunately
[07:05] <hunteke> PriceChild: thank you.  Problem is that I've installed it via Add/Remove Programs, yet it doesn't show up as an applet to put in the bar.  Any ideas?
[07:05] <faileas> then you have what you should need i think Gizmo_the_Great. personally i just add devel packages as errors pop up on compile ;)
[07:06] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, ok, thanks anyways. is there a windows irc channel?
[07:06] <hunteke> nor is it in the Internet menu, like it claimed when I installed it . . . :-(
[07:06] <PriceChild> hunteke, network-manager-gnome as well?
[07:06] <fermatstheorem> riaal, check which user/group is accessing via the nfs share. and set the permissions to u,g,o accordingly
[07:06] <willo> stefg, can't we just conclude that torrents sucks?
[07:06] <Leftmost> Is it possible to get only the Ubuntu patchset for a package? I.e. if I wanted to look specifically at the changes between a base package and the Ubuntu version, how would I go about that?
[07:06] <willo> :-)
[07:06] <Helzibah> gluttony: ##windows
[07:06] <hunteke> PriceChild: no, did not see that as an option.  will look through synaptic now . . .
[07:06] <rafaelscj> fermatstheorem, it should show it by default if you use dhcp
[07:06] <stefg> willo: i'd call that inverse blowing .... (heading for #ubuntu-offtopic)
[07:06] <Gizmo_the_Great> rausb0, I am trying to runn AFFUSE which is a slightly adjusted version of AFUSE for the Advanced Forensic Format util (www.afflib.org) but whenever I do it says "affuse: FUSE support is disabled."
[07:07] <fermatstheorem> rafael, it doesnt show blurbs like the update manager even if itis set as DHCP
[07:07] <riaal> fermatstheorem: I find this stange, If I have a share on my server with 770 and user: riaal group:riaal can I just make a user named riaal on the ps3 and it will work? :S
[07:07] <Gizmo_the_Great> faileas,  I am trying to runn AFFUSE which is a slightly adjusted version of AFUSE for the Advanced Forensic Format util (www.afflib.org) but whenever I do it says "affuse: FUSE support is disabled."
[07:07] <dstadulis> faileas: ktorrent is a very very close match to utorrent and runs native
[07:07] <rausb0> Gizmo_the_Great: maybe the configure script of AFFUSE is broken
[07:07] <willo> stefg, well, i'd rather contribute in making some of the existing linux torrent apps better, instead of emulating windows programs :)
[07:08] <Gizmo_the_Great> rausb0, thats what I wondered but the bloke who wrote it is a genius and I don't want to insult him!
[07:08] <willo> and come on, is azeurus really so bad?
[07:08] <rafaelscj> fermatstheorem, ah, you're right, only the icon change
[07:08] <fermatstheorem> riaal, i don't think it might work unless you use a single source of authentication like LDAP/directory server, i may be wrong. but you do give auth. credentials while trying to access..right?
[07:08] <coz_> guys real quick    when will gutsy be released?
[07:08] <fermatstheorem> rafaelcj..yeah, that drives me nuts
[07:09] <Helzibah> coz_: october, not sure exactly
[07:09] <Helzibah> which day

[07:09] <rausb0> Gizmo_the_Great: is it part of the afflib tarball?
[07:09] <Gizmo_the_Great> rausb0, yes

[07:10] <progek> I have a tomcat server running and placed my lan IP under my router's dmz to get it accessible from the outside. Problem is, if my computer reboots my lan IP changes. Is there a way to keep the lan IP static?
[07:10] <hunteke> I also just did a dpkg -i of the network-manager-gnome_0.6.4-6ubuntu7_i386.deb that it downloaded
[07:10] <hunteke> no luck :-(

[07:11] <fermatstheorem> helziha..you are da geek..trying to hug an irc bot!
[07:11] <dstadulis> Guest_40: which ati card do you have?
[07:11] <Helzibah> fermatstheorem: of course, bots need love too!
[07:12] <stefg> Guest_40: tried the 'safe graphics mode' ?

[07:12] <Guest_40> nope
[07:12] <progek> anyone know how I can keep my computers lan ip static? when I reboot it changes
[07:12] <fermatstheorem> did i try booting at all, Guest_40?
[07:12] <Guest_40> i don't even know how to boot into text now that i think about it
[07:13] <stefg> fermatstheorem: just set it in the network configuration applet
[07:13] <ikonia> progek internet facing ip ?
[07:13] <fermatstheorem> go to system-admin->netowrk and make it static,progek
[07:13] <progek> thanks
[07:13] <stefg> fermatstheorem: sorry... misread line
[07:13] <Bigcha>  /SERVER irc.ircnet.org
[07:14] <fermatstheorem> tis ok stefg
[07:14] <faileas> dstadulis: u torrent is just an example of an app that runs without install ;)
[07:14] <fermatstheorem> Guest_40
[07:14] <fermatstheorem> did you check the boot order in the BIOS?
[07:14] <Nalleman> I would like to have some help with finding some easy program for designing web pages with ubuntu.
[07:14] <fermatstheorem> is it booting into ur Hardrive OS, Guest?
[07:15] <gluttony> CoasterMaster, for accessing linux from windows, i should have mentioned that the windows i have is vista
[07:15] <stefg> !nvu
[07:15] <Ubotu> kompozer is a WYSIWYG HTML editor for easily creating web pages, and the continuation of the dead Nvu project.  It will be in the Ubuntu repos for 7.10 ("gutsy"); meanwhile for other versions add the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list:  "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tonyyarusso/ubuntu {dapper,edgy,feisty} universe"  (pick your release and list it without brackets, and no quotes)
[07:15] <Guest_40> it pulls up the ubuntu boot menu
[07:15] <faileas> hmm?
[07:15] <faileas> NVU died?
[07:15] <NET||abuse> Anyone know of an open community type of project like drop send?
[07:15] <bullgard4> What kind of files are stored in /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.20/Documentation/hwmon/ ? What is meant by 'hwmon'? No doubt that this is an abbreviatiation for hardware monitor.
[07:15] <tonyyarusso> !nvu =~ /dapper,//
[07:15] <fermatstheorem> then what happens..did you choose the ubuntu intall menu?
[07:16] <faileas> tonyyarusso: wha?
[07:16] <fermatstheorem> Nalleman, you can also try amaya
[07:16] <Guest_40> yes but then i just get a black screen and my monitor tells me the horizontal and vertical refresh rates are wrong
[07:16] <rafaelscj> bullgard4, should it be HP?
[07:16] <tonyyarusso> Filbert: no dapper build available in PPA at this time.
[07:17] <Nalleman> fermatstheorem, stefg thank you
[07:17] <Gizmo_the_Great> rausb0, just tried downloading FUSE from Sourceforge and ran ./configure && make && make install but it still doesn't work. Gives me the same error.
[07:17] <bigbang14> i can mount cds in my drive
[07:17] <fermatstheorem> did you try booting into the safe mode, Guest?
[07:17] <bullgard4> rafaelscj: I do not know. Rather not.
[07:17] <fermatstheorem> monitor refresh will not come up during initial boot..strange..
[07:17] <tonyyarusso> faileas, rather
[07:18] <cox377> this may seem like a strange question, is there anyway to add apt-get & .deb functionality into a non debian based Linux OS?
[07:18] <Guest_40> tried safe mode, just a black screen
[07:18] <fermatstheorem> Gizmo, i suggest you use the apt-get to get FUse,
[07:18] <stefg> Ati's fuuny idea of vesa bios or a frambuffer
[07:18] <fermatstheorem> i installed it the other day without any trouble,GIzmo
[07:18] <faileas> tonyyarusso: hmm, apparently they stopped development last year, i really haven't been keeping up ^^
[07:18] <tonyyarusso> faileas: yeah - kompozer is the continuation of the code
[07:19] <SiToad> hi, just wondering if anyone has an x1900 setup with beryl with 3D acceleration? - Am I right in assuming that if it is possible I would have to use XGL?
[07:19] <fermatstheorem> cox, it can be built, actually debian can work even with BSD
[07:19] <cox377> fermatstheorem: whats BSD?
[07:19] <fermatstheorem> Sitoad, you need not use xgl, you can enable AIXGL
[07:20] <fermatstheorem> cox. BSD is a family of unix like OS
[07:20] <fermatstheorem> similar to linux
[07:20] <faileas> cox377: unix ;)
[07:20] <stefg> BSD== blue screen of death .... or was it berkeley system distribution  ?
[07:20] <SiToad> fermatstheorem - thanks I thought so
[07:20] <faileas> actually debian is kinda kernel portable. it also runs on solaris
[07:20] <fermatstheorem> leading BSD OS's are freebsd, netbsd and openbsd
[07:20] <cox377> lol
[07:20] <faileas> stefg: thats BSOD ;)
[07:20] <cox377> fermatstheorem: do you know smoothwall?? the router based OS?
[07:21] <genii> Berkely Software Development
[07:21] <fermatstheorem> not much..
[07:21] <bigbang14> i cant mount cds in my drive is this a hardware problem or software?
[07:21] <rafaelscj> "beastie"
[07:21] <mike1234> hi guys i have just installed apache2 and having some problems getting the userdir module to work, does any one have any experinces with appache
[07:21] <fermatstheorem> bigbang.. do a dmesg|tail and check if there ar any errors
[07:21] <fermatstheorem> thrown by CD drive
[07:21] <cox377> fermatstheorem: well basically I want to try get apt-get support into my smoothwall to as I cannot be ******ed to install everything by command like
[07:22] <cox377> line*
[07:22] <cox377> anyone got any ideas?
[07:22] <Pici> mike1234: You might try asking in #apache
[07:22] <stefg> bigbang14: to find that out you need to look at 'dmesg' and the /etc/fstab file. if you don't understand you can use pastebin and show the link in here
[07:22] <mike1234> yeah thats proably a better idea, thanks pici,
[07:23] <fermatstheorem> cox, i aint sure smooth wall deals with .deb installs
[07:23] <NemesisD> hi all, for some reason ssh keeps closing with "connection reset by peer" after about 2 1/2-3 minutes. just to test this i connected and did while date ; do sleep 10; done and it reset me after about 2 mins 40 seconds
[07:23] <cox377> fermatstheorem: i dont think it does, but would it be difficult to add deb support?
[07:23] <rafaelscj> !alien
[07:23] <Ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[07:24] <fermatstheorem> cox, nothing is impossible, it is all a matter of coding :p , it aint trivial
[07:24] <cox377> fermatstheorem: :s
[07:24] <fermatstheorem> did you check if it supports yum or any other repos based install...
[07:25] <fermatstheorem> Nemsis, check you netowrk connectivity
[07:25] <cox377> fermatstheorem: no mate, good start though me things
[07:25] <stefg> NemesisD: does the server restart its sshd quite often? connection reset looks like a sshd restart...
[07:25] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, what specifically about it? i know i can definitely connect and do some things with ssh, run apps and soforth, i just can't do it for long
[07:26] <NemesisD> stefg, it shouldn't but how can I tell?
[07:26] <bigbang14> i cant see cds in my drive any more, i use to be able to see them. this is my "dmesg" im not sure if its hardware or software http://pastebin.com/m76b74e76
[07:27] <stefg> NemesisD: by looking at the servers /var/log/syslog. but it's odd behaviour, Anyone knows if ssh has a timeout option which might be wrongly configured ?
[07:27] <fermatstheorem> bigbang,can you do a dmesg|tail and past itplease
[07:27] <marsjannno> Hi all. I am looking for app that i could use to vuedo edit (add subbs, cut copy etc.) for ubuntu,. Can you tell me is there anny app that i could use for this?

[07:28] <soc> hi

[07:28] <bigbang14> fermatstheorem, here you go http://pastebin.com/m230aa7e0
[07:29] <soc> i installed opera, now every link open in opera instead of firefox
[07:29] <soc> how can i set that back to firefox?
[07:29] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, ok can i do that from ssh? i'm not familiar with how to enable telnet or use it
[07:29] <bigbang14> fermatstheorem, nothing about cds in there
[07:29] <fermatstheorem> 1.you need to install telnet-server package, and open telnet port, Nemeiss
[07:29] <fermatstheorem> yup, bigbang,
[07:30] <neilthereildeil> where can i get help withmoutning a cd image?
[07:30] <bigbang14> fermatstheorem, my fstab has a cdrom entry
[07:30] <fermatstheorem> can you open the hardware info in the sytem-?adminstration and check if CD drive is listed there?
[07:30] <neilthereildeil> its a cd image
[07:30] <bigbang14> i think it is
[07:30] <neilthereildeil> i have u use /dev/loop
[07:30] <neilthereildeil> thats what i read about mounting cd images
[07:30] <woooooosh> !java | Znortfl
[07:30] <Ubotu> Znortfl: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[07:30] <Scunizi> I need suggestion on different partitions to create on a new Feisty install to facilitate upgrading later. Seperate /home for sure, /root at 10 gig? what else should I seperate?
[07:31] <bigbang14> fermatstheorem: it is
[07:31] <Znortfl> thanks woooooosh.
[07:31] <dgjones> !iso | neilthereildeil, does this help?
[07:31] <Ubotu> neilthereildeil, does this help?: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[07:31] <fermatstheorem> can you mount it explicity useing mount command?
[07:31] <stefg> bigbang14: sr 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 means that the kernel sees the drive. check /etc/fstab if your cdrom is really /dev/sr0
[07:31] <bigbang14> fermatstheorem: tells me theres no media
[07:31] <neilthereildeil> but it asks for a FS type
[07:31] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, i'm in a different state than this server so any sort of port forwarding that has to be done I need to put in a request over the phone, what port do i need to open and what do i do after its open
[07:31] <fermatstheorem> !telnet
[07:31] <Ubotu> telnet is not safe. Please use ssh instead. See !ssh
[07:32] <Scunizi> !ssh
[07:32] <Ubotu> 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/
[07:32] <fermatstheorem> doyou have any other service open NemesisD?
[07:32] <Tenso> /clear
[07:32] <fermatstheorem> like some httpd/ftp?
[07:32] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, apache2 and mysql i believe
[07:32] <Distro^Junkie> can someone tell me where I can upgrade amarok to 1.4.7 instead of 1.4.5 ?
[07:32] <alnux> hello
[07:32] <bigbang14> stefg: i will link you my fstab
[07:32] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, i am not sure if that port is set to forward though, its intended to be run locally
[07:32] <fermatstheorem> Scunizi, if multiple users need to share data, have a separate parition may be /data
[07:32] <milou_> hello
[07:32] <fermatstheorem> and you can back it up
[07:33] <soc> Distro^Junkie: is it in backports?
[07:33] <Distro^Junkie> believe so
[07:33] <neilthereildeil> dgjones: its a cue/bin set, not an iso
[07:33] <fermatstheorem> if apache is up, can you access the pages deployed Nemsis?
[07:33] <bigbang14> stefg: http://pastebin.com/m294c8e41
[07:33] <stefg> k
[07:33] <Distro^Junkie> http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty-backports/kde/ <--- here ??
[07:33] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, from my remote machine or from the ssh server locally?
[07:33] <alnux> I just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu my iMAC PowerPC using dual boot w/OSX. I'm looking to install compiz-fusion right now anyone have any suggestions or links before doing so?
[07:34] <fermatstheorem> !compiz
[07:34] <Ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:34] <soc> Distro^Junkie: then install it from there!
[07:34] <fermatstheorem> there ya go alnux
[07:34] <Scunizi> fermatstheorem: thanks.  One user on this machine.  what I'm looking for is maybe I should seperate /usr & /tmp ?? or other directories that are part of the system
[07:34] <soc> enable the backport repo if necessary before that+
[07:34] <stefg> bigbang14: see... your cd drive is reffered as /dev/scd0 ... try changing this to /dev/sr0
[07:34] <fermatstheorem> from your ssh client machine
[07:34] <fermatstheorem> Nemsiss
[07:34] <bigbang14> stefg: does that tell you anything?
[07:34] <bigbang14> stefg:*ok
[07:34] <soc> Scunizi: why would you want to seperate /usr?
[07:35] <stefg> bigbang14: see above.
[07:35] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, apparently not
[07:35] <fermatstheorem> scunizi,if it is single user, your exisint parition is fine
[07:35] <fermatstheorem> Nemesis, are there stuff deployed in the apache server?
[07:35] <bigbang14> stefg: should i restart?
[07:35] <stefg> bigbang14: you might need to rebot after that, because the automounter needs a restart
[07:36] <HenriqueNeto> Qual  mesmo o canal oficial do ubuntu brasil?
[07:36] <alnux> thanks
[07:36] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, its just a couple of php applications we are testing out, its not meant to be connected to from outside machines
[07:36] <stefg> !pt | HenriqueNeto
[07:36] <Ubotu> HenriqueNeto: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[07:36] <fermatstheorem> Nemesis 1.Check ifyou can access other machines via ssh (if available)
[07:37] <Scunizi> soc, just throwing it out there.. what directories do I need to keep intact if I do a fresh install of a system to keep my progs. & data other than /home ?
[07:37] <soc> mh nothing
[07:37] <fermatstheorem> Nemsis, i am trying to isolate the prblem , either the netwokr at client is messeudp/ ur server network si messed up/sshd is messedup
[07:37] <dgjones> neilthereildeil, could you convert it to an iso and then mount the iso? that may be one answer if you've got the time for it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManageDiscImages#head-65775046fa84004829af94da725c2a62e214f1bb
[07:37] <centyx> orc_orc: ah... what would you suggest? ratpoison?
[07:37] <Scunizi> soc: also, is 10 gig enough for root or should it be more or less?
[07:38] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, unfortunately this is the only ubuntu machine on the facility I believe and the only one set up to use ssh
[07:38] <sPiTeFuLL> Chousuke: Hey :)
[07:38] <fermatstheorem> if there are any other servces that are open, try accessign them, ftp/sftp anything Nemsis
[07:38] <soc> maybe copy /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /etc/apt/sources.list too, if you added something manually
[07:38] <soc> 10gb is enough
[07:38] <sPiTeFuLL> Ok WHo Needs CADEGA ?! MSG MEGivin away 4 free... :)
[07:38] <fermatstheorem> Nemesis, can your colleagues access the box both locally/remotely?
[07:39] <faust> sPiTeFuLL, go away.
[07:39] <sPiTeFuLL> aww.. i just wanto
[07:39] <soc> but /home is enough
[07:39] <faust> If we needed Cedega, we'd be perfectly capable of getting it ourselves.
[07:39] <Rynoo> On ubuntu, which device would be my microphone-in?
[07:39] <sPiTeFuLL> help those who dont have VISA cards :)
[07:39] <faust> Giving away licenced software for free is simply just not cool.
[07:39] <Scunizi> soc: cool.. I've set up 2 other machines. This one is for my wife and I want to get it right ( :) ).. She'll be running xp in a vm as well.
[07:39] <sPiTeFuLL> and they wanto play win games on Linux :)
[07:39] <soc> Scunizi: /usr doesn't stand for "usr", but for "unix special resources"
[07:39] <samiii> hello
[07:39] <samiii> hello
[07:39] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, i could check, theyre usually pretty busy, but would they just set the router to forward port 80, or maybe on the LAN try to ssh to the machine's IP?
[07:39] <sPiTeFuLL> ok wha eva... =/
[07:39] <samiii> any one can help me
[07:39] <soc>  Scunizi: /usr doesn't stand for "User"
[07:39] <bigbang14> my cd drive will still not detect cds
[07:39] <Myrtti> !ask | samiii
[07:39] <Ubotu> samiii: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:39] <Scunizi> soc.. k
[07:39] <samiii> i couldnt play mpeg files
[07:40] <niekie> faust: it is... if the licensor gives it away :-)
[07:40] <samiii> what shall i do ?//
[07:40] <bigbang14> it cany boot from them either
[07:40] <stefg> !piracy
[07:40] <samiii> i m new user of ubuntu
[07:40] <Ubotu> piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o
[07:40] <fermatstheorem> Nemesis, if theycan access the box, in its own lan just fine, sshd is fine
[07:40] <faust> niekie, true, true. But not if it's not allowed to distribute according to the licence.
[07:40] <niekie> faust: I was talking about some freebies you can sometimes get :-)
[07:40] <bigbang14> stefg: did work
[07:41] <fermatstheorem> if you can access other resources oif the box fine, then the network is fine
[07:41] <stefg> bigbang14: nice :-)
[07:41] <bigbang14> stefg: *didnt
[07:41] <stefg> bigbang14: not nice :-(
[07:41] <bigbang14> stefg: i cant boot from the cd either
[07:42] <bigbang14> stefg: which was the same before
[07:42] <fermatstheorem> if your other resources also fail to connect, you rmight have to talk to the box's netowrk guy to forward the ssh port
[07:42] <Irchaa> Hey, anybody know any good programs for linux capturing videos of everything you do on the screen?
 Someone please help, I just installed Kubuntu on my old laptop, by accident I did it in 1024x768 and my laptop only works on 800x600, I just set it to 640x480 in x.conf but it still loads at 1024x768
[07:42] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, so what would be to blame then if that is the case? i mean im even able to connect and use the functionality of ssh, just that it disconnects me after about 3 mins
[07:42] <Mike3> how do I fix?
[07:42] <Irchaa> fraps t hingies?
[07:42] <niekie> :-(
[07:42] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, ssh's port is definitely set to forward in the router
[07:42] <niekie> Err.. wrong channel.
[07:42] <bigbang14> stefg: not sure if its a hardware problem
[07:42] <stefg> bigbang14: then it could really be a hardware problem. So the kernel sees the controller, but the mechanics might be bad, so it just doesn't mount
[07:42] <Pici> Mike3: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[07:43] <fermatstheorem> Nemesis. my gut feeling is flaky netowkr
[07:43] <Rynoo> is there a device listing for the microphone-in on ubuntu?
[07:43] <samiii> i i want to play mpeg files in ubuntu what shall i do ???
[07:43] <fermatstheorem> Rynoo, that sur mic socket
[07:43] <Rynoo> say what?
[07:43] <fermatstheorem> samii,you need the restrcited plugins for gstreamer
[07:43] <bigbang14> stefg: that really annoys me, its new and its the second thing to go wrong, first the power supply then this
[07:43] <fermatstheorem> thats your mic socket ,rynoo
[07:44] <Rynoo> yea
[07:44] <Rynoo> but is there a device lable for it?
[07:44] <epiclulz> anyone know how to convert non-utf cyrillic id3 tags to utf? i get this (author of mp3) instead of actual text ""
[07:44] <Rynoo> like /dev/blahblah?
[07:44] <fermatstheorem> rynoo, are you useing ALSA/OSS?
[07:44] <bigbang14> stefg: any way to test it so i can send it back?
[07:44] <jacob> can somebody help me? I reinstalled ubuntu and installed a couple of plugins and now i can't hear any music through my media players, not even vlc.
[07:44] <stefg> bigbang14: you could consider changing your vendor :-). but a power supply failure might damage other components, too
[07:44] <NemesisD> fermatstheorem, so what would be the solution if that were the case
[07:44] <Rynoo> ferm: yes
[07:44] <Rynoo> well, not sure really.
[07:45] <fermatstheorem> NemesisD, your network dude has to find out where the packets are getting dropped, starting from teh server end till ur end
[07:45] <samiii> what kind of this help is
[07:45] <bigbang14> stefg: any way to test it so i can send it back?
[07:45] <Rynoo> ferm: mind if I private message you?
[07:46] <WaxyFresh> hi i just installed opensuse for something new to play with and i no longer have all my kernal options in grub only the first one which dosent suport my sound card how can i reinstall the ubuntu version of grub
[07:46] <kalpik> samiii, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:46] <Rynoo> fermatstheorem, mind if I private message you? (sorry)
[07:46] <Pici> !patience | samiii
[07:46] <stefg> bigbang14: what error do you get if you try a manual mount (like 'sudo mount /dev/sr0 /mnt' ) ?
[07:46] <Ubotu> samiii: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[07:46] <fermatstheorem> rynoo - system->pref->sound
[07:46] <crowley1028> Hey, can i use Wine to "install" an exe for windows?
[07:46] <kalpik> crowley1028, sure! why not?
[07:46] <bigbang14> stefg: mount: No medium found
[07:46] <Rynoo> fermatstheorem, Sound Capture is ALSA
[07:47] <stefg> bigbang14: but there is a CD in the drive?
[07:47] <samiii> Couldn't find package ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:47] <crowley1028> Kalpik: Can you help me in a second when i get started with it?  (it always gives me problems haha)
[07:47] <stefg> bigbang14: but there is a *Data* -CD in the drive?
[07:47] <bigbang14> stefg:sure is
[07:47] <kalpik> crowley1028, sure!
[07:47] <crowley1028> (yay)
[07:47] <jrib> samiii: did you add teh multiverse repository?
[07:47] <Sajes> ... * You have left channel #ubuntu (requested by elkbuntu)
[07:47] <Sajes> What's that about?
[07:47] <samiii> no
[07:47] <bigbang14> stefg: the ubuntu live cd
[07:47] <Rynoo> fermatstheorem, so what would the device listing be for it? like /dev/alsa?
[07:47] <jrib> samiii: you need to to get ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:47] <samiii> ok but how i can get it
[07:48] <fermatstheorem> unlike OSS, alsa deals with it difrerntly
[07:48] <jrib> samiii: system -> administration -> software sources (see ubotu for more details)
[07:48] <samiii> i told u i switched from xp to ubuntu
[07:48] <Mike3> I deselect 1024x768 and 800x600 adn save again, But then I re-enter Configuring Xserver-xorg (Package Configuration) and there reselected.
[07:48] <jrib> !multiverse > samiii (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:48] <Mike3> I deselect 1024x768 and 800x600 adn save again, But then I re-enter Configuring Xserver-xorg (Package Configuration) and there reselected.
[07:48] <fermatstheorem> ti doesng tiveyou the path of hte virtual file, but a hardware name
[07:48] <Rynoo> oh
[07:48] <stefg> bigbang14: try if the drive can play a stupid audio-cd . the laser could be damaged
[07:48] <fermatstheorem> rynoo, try testing with sound recorder
[07:48] <Rynoo> so should I switch to OSS?
[07:49] <Rynoo> the sound recorder works fine
[07:49] <fermatstheorem> and check in alsamixer if the volume is set
[07:49] <fermatstheorem> OSS isold
[07:49] <crowley1028> Okay i just "installed" wine, now how do i install program1.exe from my desktop?
[07:49] <fermatstheorem> deprecated
[07:49] <crowley1028> if my path is /home/someone/Desktop
[07:49] <Rynoo> it works, what I'm trying to do is find the device name so I can stream audio via shoutcast server from a scanner.
[07:49] <EagleCros> hi
[07:49] <stefg> !wine
[07:49] <jacob> i can't play any music in my media players, anybody knows how to fix the problem?
[07:49] <EagleCros> just one quick question
[07:49] <bigbang14> stefg: can you dumb that down abit
[07:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Mike3: I think it alwasy tries to add those in.. You can manually remove then from the xorg with nano or gedit
[07:49] <Ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:49] <Jack_Sparrow> jacob: what format are the files
[07:49] <Rynoo> fermatstheorem, mind if I private message you?
[07:50] <jacob> mp3
[07:50] <fermatstheorem> rynoo, i donot have an immediate answer, sorry, i probably haveto research it myself
[07:50] <jacob> Jack_Sparro: mp3
[07:50] <Rynoo> ah okay
[07:50] <EagleCros> does the installer in 7.04 repartition the disk nicely? i.e. if the disk has a windows partition which has been in use for some time, will it erase it or will in smartly move the data so that it does not suffer any harm?
[07:50] <kalpik> crowley1028, just type wine <program.exe> from your terminal
[07:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !mp3

[07:50] <Ubotu> samiii: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[07:50] <Rynoo> but you're saying, that OSS has a virtual path, and ALSA doesn't?
[07:50] <jacob> Jack_Sparrow: without any experience, i installed many plugins hoping that it would play my mp3 files, but it doesn't work
[07:51] <Jack_Sparrow> jacob: do you install w32codecs?
[07:51] <bigbang14> stefg i put in an audio but no luck
[07:51] <stefg> bigbang14: just insert a music CD. a lot of players just issue Drive commands (that is the drive plays by itself, no mounting necessary). if even this fails, then probably the laser is dead
[07:51] <jacob> Jack_Sparrow: let me see....
[07:51] <fermatstheorem> rynoo, alsa doesnt write to /dev/dsp etc
[07:51] <Jack_Sparrow> jacob: Does it play other file types
[07:51] <pi3> What is the kernel grub line for the last Ubuntu linux image?
[07:51] <Gowrav> hi room ... i have my download corrupted for desktop ubuntu.. can i go a head with server !!! whats the main difference ??
[07:52] <genii> savedefault ?
[07:52] <Jack_Sparrow> kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-16-generic
[07:52] <bigbang14> stefg: i dont think mine can play without mounting
[07:52] <fermatstheorem> rynoo, i suggest you try lookin into alsa config. i may notbe able to help you here
[07:52] <Rynoo> brb
[07:52] <jrib> Gowrav: well do you want a server or a desktop?
[07:52] <EagleCros> come on, I just won't believe that nobody knows the answer!
[07:52] <fermatstheorem> gawrav- ubuntu server/desktop differences are listedin the ubuntu site
[07:52] <bigbang14> stefg: tomorrow i will try the drive in my other pc
[07:52] <jrib> !please > EagleCros (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:52] <Gowrav> infact i want to try ubuntu .. even a bit new to linux as well
[07:52] <Irchaa> !ut
[07:52] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ut - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:53] <pi3> Jack_Sparrow: could you please copy me your /boot/grub/menu.lst ? I made some mistakes :(
[07:53] <jacob> Jack_Sparrow: i'm installing one last codec, it think is this one. It's called Xine extra plugins
[07:53] <jrib> !who | Gowrav
[07:53] <Ubotu> Gowrav: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[07:53] <EagleCros> jrib: ok....
[07:53] <kalpik> Gowrav, i would suggest desktop.. use torrents to fix a corrupted download
[07:53] <jrib> Gowrav: the server won't have a GUI by default.  So if this is your first time on linux, I'd recommend downloading the desktop again
[07:53] <stefg> bigbang14: so for a final verdict i'd need hands-on access... But it appears to me that the broken power supply probably has damged the CD drive as well. From the software side things look normal
[07:53] <Jack_Sparrow> pi3: Let me paste it up  but copy what you need as I dual boot and mine will be different
[07:54] <bigbang14> stefg: the light flashes on when i insert a cd but i cant here spinning and when it did work it made funny noises like it was scrapping
[07:54] <Gowrav> kalpik: how to make it correct with torrent .. i have image burned on cd .. it boots well but then on install screen it says kernal image corrupted
[07:54] <Neatchee> I'm still waiting (3 days now) for some help with a segfault when trying to run gnome-keybinding-properties.  Is there anyone who can help me?  I know it's a rather technical question, so if there's a better place to ask (already tried the forums), please let me know.
[07:54] <Gowrav> thanx jrib
[07:54] <bigbang14> stefg: *hear
[07:54] <jrib> EagleCros: it asks you if you want to shrink the partition to make space, but I'd recommend backups (you should have them anyway)
[07:54] <Jack_Sparrow> pi3: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37218/
[07:54] <jacob> Jack_Sparrow: nope, last codec installed doesn't work
[07:54] <stefg> bigbang14: if the laser is dead that makes sense...
[07:54] <Arcad3z> can someone guide me to a tutorial ...i'm trying to make an openvpn + pptpd network on ubuntu for windows clients
[07:54] <pi3> thank you
[07:55] <kalpik> Gowrav, just start downloading the torrent.. and point to your corrupted file.. it will download only the corrupted parts
[07:55] <EagleCros> jrib: ok, so *theoretically* and *if everything works* it will not erase everything as in the old days, right?
[07:55] <jacob> Jack_Sparrow: if it's more helpful, i reinstalled ubuntu from fedora
[07:55] <bigbang14> stefg: i will probably send it back, no use to me dead. thanks for the help
[07:55] <Jack_Sparrow> jacob: Did you follow the instructions on the page I linked?  Have you ever run automatix or envy ?
[07:55] <jrib> EagleCros: yes, that is what is *supposed* to happen
[07:55] <rendo> Is there a program that can be used to isolate sound tracks from music?
[07:55] <EagleCros> thank you very much jrib :))
[07:55] <PleegWat> I've got a desktop installation of ubuntu, but I've also installed the lamp packages. This gets me a user called www-data which the webserver runs under. However I want also to be able to use this account from a terminal, and that doesn't seem to be working.
[07:55] <Gowrav> kalpik: but what if i have this burnt cd from cyber cafe .. can i copy it back to hdd in windows to work as you said....
[07:56] <pupster> Hello, does anyone know how to detect a monitor when its plugged in? It doesn't show up in dmesg, or the log for xorg .. anyother suggestions?
[07:56] <zackattack> how do I figure out how much free space I have on my hard drive, and where any files greater than 10MB are?
[07:56] <EagleCros> have a nice day (or whatever it is in your time zone)!
[07:56] <jrib> PleegWat: why do you want to use that user from a terminal?
[07:56] <zackattack> through the CLI
[07:56] <kalpik> Gowrav, yeah.. you could try that
[07:56] <Jack_Sparrow> rendo: If you mean rip single tracks of audio.. yes.. sound juicer
[07:56] <jrib> zackattack: df -h, and use 'du'.  See 'man du'
[07:56] <rendo> Jack_Sparrow:  I mean something that can say isolate just the guitar track from the music file
[07:56] <Arcad3z> PleegWat:sudo bash the su www-data
[07:56] <jrib> zackattack: oh, actually, 'find' will work for that
[07:56] <zackattack> jrib  ?
[07:56] <Jack_Sparrow> rendo: Not that I am aware of.
[07:57] <skinnypuppy34> There is a disk useage analizer
[07:57] <Gowrav> kalpik: means making nrg image file back from cd .. one last question .. from where i can get best torrent client and what is ubuntu's torrent address ..
[07:57] <zackattack> jrib what kind of syntax?
[07:57] <jacob> Jack_Sparrow: come again?
[07:57] <jrib> zackattack: you can use the 'find' command to search for files larger than a certain size.  I don't know the syntax offhand, see 'man find' and ping me if it's still not clear after a while
[07:57] <skinnypuppy34> applications, accesories, disk useage analyzer
[07:57] <dwxreaper> is there a tutorial for configuring NICs.  for some reason i can't ping my server, but then I reboot and I can
[07:57] <Jack_Sparrow> jacob: Did you follow the instructions on the page I linked?  Have you ever run automatix or envy ? What part of that dont you understand..
[07:57] <PleegWat> I need the htdoc files, or at least some, to be writable by the webserver user, so they need to be owned by him, but most of the files are from a SVN repo, so I need cli access to update that
[07:57] <pupster> zackattack, just go into Applications -> Accessories -> Disk Usage Analyzer (Ubuntu 7.04)
[07:57] <pi3> Jack_Sparrow: is the root UUID parameter necessary?
[07:57] <dwxreaper> it appears random, i think it has to do with my NIC configs.  static routes, etc.
[07:57] <Arcad3z> i have a network running ubunru (dhcp +iptables) clients always change MAC address to get connected
[07:57] <dwxreaper> is there some kind of tutorial
[07:58] <kalpik> Gowrav, you would have to make an ISO image.. try ImgBurn for making it.. and utorrent is the best torrent client for windows IMHO
[07:58] <WaxyFresh> hi my sound card only seems to work when useing the 2.6.20.15 kernal and not teh 2.6.20.16 one any ideas on why this would be?
[07:58] <Jack_Sparrow> pi3: dont copy mine..it wont work
[07:58] <zackattack> jrib: find -size 10024k
[07:58] <Arcad3z> someone told me to use openvpn and pppoe
[07:58] <zackattack> jrib: do I need to add anything before the -size? like a . ?
[07:58] <Arcad3z> where can i find a tutorial?
[07:58] <Gowrav> kalpik: thanx trying what you said ...
[07:58] <pupster> Hello, does anyone know how to detect a monitor when its plugged in? It doesn't show up in dmesg, or the log for xorg .. anyother suggestions?
[07:58] <jrib> PleegWat: I still don't see why you need to login as www-data
[07:59] <jacob> Jack_Sparrow: automatix and envy and i didn't get the link
[07:59] <Neatchee> I'm still waiting (3 days now) for some help with a segfault when trying to run gnome-keybinding-properties.  Is there anyone who can help me?  I know it's a rather technical question, so if there's a better place to ask (already tried the forums), please let me know.
[07:59] <PleegWat> well, I may be making a logic error
[07:59] <PleegWat> what do you think I need to set it up as?
[07:59] <fermatstheorem> pupster, i ain't sure much but you can try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[07:59] <fermatstheorem> pupster, i aint sure but you can try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

[07:59] <SteffeN> I detected some bad blocks. Do I need to exchange the HDD or is there a way to repair the blocks/mark them? Its a vfat (WinXP) Partition.
[07:59] <jrib> zackattack: find / -size +10G     it seems

[08:01] <Jack_Sparrow> !root > Rotterdam
[08:01] <stefg> !root | Rotterdam
[08:01] <Ubotu> Rotterdam: 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
[08:01] <zackattack> jrib: damn, it doesn't specify that it in the manpage!
[08:01] <woooooosh> lol, i love that

[08:01] <Ubotu> From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[08:01] <Rotterdam> i just installed feisty for the first time
[08:01] <zackattack> jrib: and it doesn't say anything about G!

[08:04] <ph8> nothing in dmesg stefg
[08:04] <ph8> it's weird

[08:04] <ph8> but suddenly everything usb (not my ps/2 keyboard) stops working

[08:06] <WaxyFresh> hi wahts teh most up to date kernel for ubuntu
[08:06] <jrib> JeevesMoss: regarding the local mail, cron will mail your user errors it encounters. So if you run 'mutt' for example, you get useful info

[08:10] <WaxyFresh> hi i need a newer kernel and walmarts all out,where do i find the newest kernel with a easy guide to follow,besides !kernal
[08:10] <Neatchee> kalpik: because i'm not prepared to say that it's a bug in the software.  It seems more likely at this point that there's a problem with my installation/configuration
[08:10] <Jack_Sparrow> WaxyFresh: Why do you need a newer kernal
[08:11] <whileimhere> xaelgrim? You get that last URL?
[08:11] <hmmm> Anyone here used qt4 designer with kdevelop with success?
[08:11] <fermatstheorem> waxy, do you wnat to recompile the lates kernel source?
[08:11] <RedEyess> how do I get wireless to start on reboot?
[08:11] <WaxyFresh> Jack_Sparrow: becuase the one im useing dosent support my sound card

[08:12] <Larry1981> Someone is trying to crack my wireless router password because the latest firmware update from Linksys appear as WEP encryption instead WPA in software as Netstumbler (even if Windows Wireless client sees it as WPA). So what I did is block the MAC adress of this guy. But Now, I sees in the LOGS that he is trying to connect like 2000-3000 times a day. Is there a way to find this guy ? Since I have his MAC address, could I use a s
[08:12] <Jack_Sparrow> WaxyFresh: I take it you checked and the newer one does support it?
[08:12] <fermatstheorem> Waxy, did you check if hte sound card is upported by ubuntu, because, unless your kernel is fairly old sound mostly works out of box
[08:13] <niekie> Larry1981: I think Netstumbler might misdetect stuff sometimes.
[08:13] <Ward1983> how large is a CLI installation? someone i know wants to get it on a 1GB flashdisk

[08:13] <Larry1981> So my question is: Can I scan the signal strengh of a wireless card ? Or transform my laptop into a "wireless router" so I let the guy connect then scan the signal strenght ?
[08:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Ward1983: I think he will need a 2gig
[08:13] <gordonjcp> Ward1983: a CLI installation of what?
[08:13] <keito> jrib: Installed: 1.1.4-2ubuntu3
[08:14] <WaxyFresh> Jack_Sparrow: well my sound card only seems to work when using the 2.6.20.15 kernel and not the 2.6.20.16 and 2.16 gives me problems with my usb drive so i want to try a newer one.it was the suggestion i got from #kernel

[08:14] <woooooosh> Neatchee, i can't help you (sorry) - but just want to say that I'm having not segfault when opening from terminal or menu - it must be something in ure config
[08:14] <niekie> Larry1981: why do you want to do that?
[08:14] <gordonjcp> Ward1983: don't see what's "of course" about it
[08:14] <WaxyFresh> Ward1983: i thought it was like 400mb not sure
[08:14] <Ward1983> Jack_Sparrow, is there any other way to make ubuntu fit on a GB ?
[08:14] <Ward1983> gordonjcp, what cahnnel are you in?
[08:14] <stefg> Ward1983: ubuntu-server (base only) can get away with that... make sure you apt-get clean after upgrades and uninstall old kernels
[08:14] <Larry1981> niekie: I did a mistake, it is a D-Link router... and my wireless gaming adapter sees it as WPE encryption also so this is really a firmware bug. Older firmwares was ok

[08:15] <gordonjcp> Ward1983: you could be talking about anything, from a full distro to a particular app

[08:15] <JeevesMoss> what is the proper usage of the "ln" command?  I'd like to create a link in a directory to another directory so that the FTP program can have multi access points without remapping a bunch of shit
[08:15] <Larry1981> niekie: To ask the guy to stop trying to crack a wep key on my network.
[08:15] <fermatstheorem> what is the versionof the new kernek ti supports?
[08:15] <fermatstheorem> if ubuntu aint has it you prbably have to hand-compile it
[08:15] <JeevesMoss> niekie: just keep rotating it, or use a RADIUS server.
[08:15] <jrib> JeevesMoss: ln -s TARGET NAME
[08:15] <niekie> JeevesMoss: ?
[08:15] <jrib> JeevesMoss: for symbolic links
[08:16] <Neatchee> woooooosh: yes, i know it's something in my config, because simply moving my ${HOME} directory (thus giving gnome a clean configuration) will solve the problem.  The issue is that I don't know if it's a problem in gnome, or a conflict with some other program
[08:16] <gordonjcp> Larry1981: just keep rolling a new key, or use mac-based auth

[08:16] <gordonjcp> Larry1981: or - and this could be even more fun - configure DHCP to always hand off the same IP address to him
[08:16] <niekie> Larry1981: I'm confused, sorry.
[08:16] <gordonjcp> Larry1981: and then redirect his traffic

[08:20] <WaxyFresh> xerxe: ubuntu ultimate?whats that?
[08:20] <jrib> samling: this is the wrong way to install things on ubuntu.  You should be using a package manager
[08:20] <jrib> !software > samling (see the private message from ubotu)
[08:20] <fermatstheorem> ubuntu ulimate - all the packages in all the universe/multiverse severs installed!
[08:20] <xerxe> a distro of 1,92 gb
[08:21] <xerxe> with many aplication by default
[08:21] <WaxyFresh> fermatstheorem: why do you need them all??
[08:21] <fermatstheorem> WaxyFresh: thaks for the tip, best wishes for the kernel compile, mine is a lean,mean, fast one after some tweaks
[08:21] <samling> (jrib): Thanks. :) I'll see how this goes.
[08:21] <fermatstheorem> WaxyFresh: thats the ultimate edition! kidding
[08:21] <k3ks> why is apt not removen all the folders created on the installation of an programm on uninstalling it?
[08:22] <urilockz> ok so i a m checking
[08:22] <xerxe> so anyone can help me with ati drivers?
[08:22] <jrib> samling: what do you want to install glibc for btw?
[08:22] <gordonjcp> k3ks: because they may contain user data
[08:22] <osmosis> how can I revert my config files back to original for a particular package?
[08:22] <Hooloovoo> I'll just bug report my sound problem and see if anyone else have it.
[08:22] <Doitle> Has anyone here had any luck installing drivers for a Agere Et131x ethernet card?
[08:22] <urilockz> 01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV380 [Radeon X600] 
[08:22] <xerxe> a short tutorial will be usefull
[08:22] <neumind> !offtopic _Andrew
[08:22] <Slart> k3ks: because sometimes you want to keep your config files and other stuff you created with the program?
[08:22] <WaxyFresh> xerxe: | !ati
[08:22] <fermatstheorem> xerxe -install it from restricted drivers
[08:22] <k3ks> gordonjcp: so i have to remove all of them manually?
[08:22] <JeevesMoss> what is the command to connect to a remote system from shell? isn't is "ssl <username>@<host> ?
[08:22] <WaxyFresh> !ati | xerxe
[08:22] <Ubotu> xerxe: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:22] <gordonjcp> k3ks: you could just ignore them
[08:22] <davetarmac> basically the problem is that the computer keeps freezing when I'm doing things over the network - transfering a few files between machines via FTP is a prime example. I used to have a WEP network but now I'm connecting to a WPA-PSK one. Although it seems to connect OK, could this be the problem?
[08:22] <_Andrew> ??
[08:22] <gordonjcp> k3ks: are you *sure* they're not needed?
[08:22] <WaxyFresh> so xerxe why do you need all teh packages?
[08:22] <fermatstheorem> JeevesMoss: ssh usernam@host
[08:22] <Slart> JeevesMoss: ssh computername works for me =)
[08:22] <k3ks> but i want to reinstall the prog and have the new config files
[08:23] <gordonjcp> davetarmac: WPA generally belongs more to the problem set than the solution set
[08:23] <JeevesMoss> Slart:  thanks
[08:23] <xerxe> i guess not
[08:23] <xerxe> u can install them after
[08:23] <keito> jrib: any help? just restarted to no avail
[08:23] <Neatchee> kalpik: The package i had installed was gtk2-engine-qtpixmap Removed it, restarted gdm, but still no luck :(
[08:23] <davetarmac> gordonjcp: does it sound to you that it could be causing my system to lockup?
[08:23] <k3ks> gordonjcp: it's about the apach2 files
[08:23] <xerxe> but it is smore easy 4 a guy like me
[08:23] <samling> (jrib): I was attempting to install something that used bluetooth, but was getting errors, so I did some searching around and read that they might be glibc-related. I guess if I'm installing glibc the wrong way I'm probably installing the program the wrong was a well, so I'll look into that. XD
[08:23] <jrib> keito: how about the "libmad0" package?
[08:23] <samling> I'm...very new at linux in general. :D
[08:23] <gordonjcp> davetarmac: unlikely, but if that's the only change you've made since the problem started...
[08:23] <jrib> samling: right
[08:24] <keito> yep
[08:24] <defcons> hello
[08:24] <samling> But I try. :P
[08:24] <keito> not *missing* a nything as it worked fine
[08:24] <defcons> does anyone have a thinkpad T60?
[08:24] <kalpik> Neatchee, oh ok! i once had this problem with gtk-engines-qt.. sorry couldnt help you! :(
[08:24] <fermatstheorem> Thanks all. G'day.
[08:24] <defcons> I'm having problems getting the in-built mic to record
[08:24] <davetarmac> actually - I did put on Gnome-Art the other night, could this cause an issue?
[08:24] <keito> something has gone pearshaped with amarok
[08:24] <defcons> on fesity
[08:24] <Neatchee> kalpik: well you've given me something to think about.  A starting point at least :)
[08:24] <keito> jrib: ^^
[08:24] <xerxe> hey thanks 4 the fast reply

[08:26] <Slart> Doitle: if the same packages are installed and you're looking the the same repos it shouldn't be like that

[08:35] <ipx1> Hi -- do you guys know whether or not Ubuntu can read windows-based external hard drives (like Western Digital)?
[08:35] <Lockyy> jack, guy or google?
[08:35] <defcons> Slart, 1.4.0.99
[08:35] <Jack_Sparrow> samiii:   Did you read my response
[08:35] <lnx_> jrib , http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37230/
[08:35] <Doitle> My ubuntu can detect my WD NTFS hard drive
[08:35] <xjman> I'm having a problem getting a wireless card to work. I used a guide a help.ubuntu.com about the wireless card but it still doesn't work. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Netgear_WG311_v3?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDevice%29 is the guide I used. Is there something that was left out?
[08:35] <Doitle> you have read only access to NTFS drives
[08:36] <Slart> defcons: nice.. same as I use.. go into options.. check the sound devices
[08:36] <ipx1> Doitle: I mean...can I save data on it?
[08:36] <Doitle> no you can't save data to it
[08:36] <defcons> Slart, yes I did
[08:36] <jrib> lnx_: k
[08:36] <keito> jrib: any ideas?
[08:36] <ipx1> Doitle: o i get it.
[08:36] <Slart> defcons: ok.. what are your options for sound in?
[08:36] <keito> jrib: should I remove and reinstall?
[08:36] <defcons> Slart, default device
[08:36] <Doitle> You can copy files from the hard drive however
[08:36] <Doitle> and then modify them
[08:36] <lnx_> jrib , know what i need todo ?
[08:36] <jrib> keito: try renaming ~/.amarok (or whatever it is) to see if it matters
[08:37] <jrib> lnx_: I said already, make a backup and edit the file to get rid of the duplicate
[08:37] <Slart> defcons: and if you click on it you can chose from about 5 different things.. all named more or less the same?
[08:37] <ipx1> xjman:  What model of netgear is it?
[08:37] <sgtmattbaker> when I remote desktop into ubuntu the keyboard is messed up.  when I type say the letter k it will register a ' and if I type h it will register as k and so forth.  Also, it is unusually slow, and I cannot use the backspace key.  I am using tightvnc through a putty ssh tunnel
[08:37] <defcons> Slart, yes
[08:37] <defcons> Slart, I don't know which one I should use
[08:37] <ferronica> how to use evolution mail for yahoo?

[08:38] <Slart> defcons: ok.. we'll go to the gnome volume control then.. it's the one you get if you right-click on the speaker thingy in the task bar
[08:38] <keito> yep
[08:38] <defcons> ferronica, then read the tutorial that yahoo gives
[08:38] <ferronica> defcons: to use evolution i need paid account in yahoo
[08:39] <defcons> Slart, yeah, I've been using Linux for a while actually. I'm just trying to resolve the bug

[08:39] <seraph34> am I live?
[08:39] <seraph34> Am I live?

[08:41] <Argazm> hi peeps, could someone tell me which uses LESS memory to run, Ubuntu or Kubuntu ???
[08:41] <keito> jrib: k (don't then what though? - reinstall?)
[08:42] <samling> (There are other hci_[somethingsomethings]  as well)
[08:42] <xerxe> tell me how to do that
[08:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Argazm: Kubuntu is a bit more bloated (my opinion)
[08:42] <xerxe> xorg ?
[08:42] <jrib> keito: I meant: I don't know what else to suggest.  Yeah, try reinstalling and if no one here knows, you can try #kubuntu.  Also check bugs.ubuntu.com
[08:42] <sgtmattbaker> when I remote desktop into ubuntu the keyboard is messed up.  when I type say the letter k it will register a ' and if I type h it will register as k and so forth.  Also, it is unusually slow, and I cannot use the backspace key.  I am using tightvnc through a putty ssh tunnel

[08:43] <sgtmattbaker> ferronica: from what I have read, you must be a yahoo subscriber yto use the pop email for yahoo
[08:43] <ladydoor> ferronica: You can use something like yosucker (not in the repos) to download the mail...I don't know that they let you use a mailreader
[08:43] <ladydoor> ferronica: And you couldn't send mail from it
[08:44] <Argazm> you using Ubuntu just now Jack ???
[08:44] <Slart> defcons: you can check in /proc/asound/pcm and see which device has capture devices
[08:44] <ferronica> sgtmattbaker: i am yhaoo user
[08:44] <ferronica> sgtmattbaker: i am yahoo user

[08:51] <xjman> I still can't seem to get my wireless card set up.
[08:51] <Jack_Sparrow> samiii: It should have shown you a link that you post here for people to be able to find it
[08:51] <Sajes> so, argazm, wouldn't you be a bit steamed if you accidentally downloaded the wrong one? (plus the waste of a cd).
[08:52] <samiii> yes

[08:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: I am not a blog kinda guy...  I just write stuff I need or what I get paid to write
[08:52] <Argazm> Sajes: I have no idea what your on about ?!?  I'm looking for a way to enable my S3 UniChrome 3D graphics...
[08:53] <Sajes> ... Nevermind..
[08:53] <sutty> Jack_Sparrow , so can 128 mb ram possibly make it run?
[08:53] <riaal> where is the repos stored?
[08:53] <jrib> lnx_: pastebin the file
[08:53] <samling> Does anyone know why, when using gcc, I get an error such as: "undefined reference to 'hci_disconnect'"?
[08:53] <Jack_Sparrow> sutty: I think the alt cd will go that low.. but better of getting some more ram
[08:54] <sutty> ah, thank you
[08:54] <bsm> hi, where the fucking hell is the intel ipw3945 driver in gutsy?
[08:54] <bsm> hm, that was no smart question
[08:54] <Jack_Sparrow> !omg

[08:55] <mikefoo> I have a dns bind master/slave setup, when I make a change on master, the slave seems to get the changes.. 10+ minutes later.. is there a setting for this time frame?
[08:55] <Pici> bsm: Gutsy questions only in #ubuntu+1 please.
[08:55] <genii> mikefoo: ndc restart
[08:55] <lnx_> jrib , it big than i can paste

[08:55] <riaal> where is the repos file stored?
[08:55] <mikefoo> genii: on the master or slave?
[08:56] <riaal> /etc/?
[08:56] <Pici> riaal: /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:56] <Jack_Sparrow> riaal: your question does not make sense....  repos are online, are you asking where the downloaded files are..the debs?
[08:56] <riaal> Pici, thanks. suprincingly
[08:56] <genii> mikefoo: On master. It pushes out the latest dns entries when you restart the bind server
[08:56] <riaal> dfdf
[08:56] <samiii> \E: Type 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu' is not known on line 33 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:56] <samiii> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[08:56] <riaal> =)
[08:56] <Jack_Sparrow> riaal: If so then they are in var/cache/apt/archives
[08:57] <Pici> samiii: Can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file?
[08:57] <johwil> samling: that usually means you need to make it a prototype...
[08:57] <genii> mikefoo: Also remember to increment of course the time counter in the dns file
[08:57] <angela_> hello my friend
[08:57] <samling> (johwil): How do I do that? :|
[08:57] <samiii> how
[08:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Pici: Already treid a couple times to get him to do that
[08:57] <julian2495322> how come my internet on ubuntu is 2 times slower than windows?
[08:57] <Paddy_EIRE> Pici, do you know how I subscribe to ubuntu's the fridge calendar
[08:57] <mikefoo> genii: yes, but why isn't it an instance update?  why does it take 20min if I dont do anything?
[08:57] <angela_> alguien habla espaol?
[08:57] <johwil> in the header: foo(...);
[08:57] <jrib> lnx_: can you dcc it to me then?

[08:58] <aguitel> angela _what up
[08:58] <Skelet0n> Ubuntu hates me
[08:58] <Skelet0n> i need help
[08:58] <Pici> samiii: Open /etc/apt/sources.list in your favorite text editor, copy everything and paste it here:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[08:58] <johwil> samling: in the header: foo(...);
[08:58] <Argazm> julian, must just be your settings... I'm using Ubuntu and Opera and it flies a lot faster than WinXp
[08:58] <angela_> ok
[08:58] <lnx_> jrib , yes
[08:58] <Pici> samiii: It once you submit it, it will give you a link
[08:58] <genii> mikefoo: Because you are not stopping bind then changing then restarting it. Otherwise it just has a system cronjob when it propogates
[08:58] <angela_> thank
[08:59] <samiii> then
[08:59] <veynom> so i have quite the conundrum here
[09:00] <samling> (johwil): I'm rather new to linux in general, is there a place I can read how to do it more thoroughly?
[09:00] <angela_> can I use my english?
[09:00] <genii> mikefoo: You could conceivably make it push the tables earlier by altering crontab for bind user
[09:00] <veynom> my dvd-rom won't mount my diablo2 disc, but somehow i'm making an iso of it
[09:00] <angela_> my english is slow
[09:00] <veynom> my english is english
[09:00] <angela_> XD
[09:02] <Sajes> English is my first language.. actually, It's my only language.. :o Maybe I should crack a few books open. "Spanish for Dummies", "German for Dummies". Wonder if they exist.
[09:02] <angela_> I want to be useful and to practise my english
[09:02] <ewaters> I migrated from debian to ubuntu. In debian, if I type "perl -Ilib t/0<TAB>", it'll autocomplete the filename t/0*.  In Ubuntu, I can't figure out how to enable this bash autocomplete.  I have uncommented the bash_completion in my .bashrc file and in the global /etc/profile file, but it still won't do filename completion for the second arg of a perl call.
[09:02] <veynom> why does it say "unable to mount cd, there is probably no media in the drive" when its sitting here making an iso
[09:03] <Sajes> :D No idea.
[09:03] <jrib> lnx_: I believe there should be an empty line on line 13192 right before "Package: libgtksourceview1.0-0
[09:03] <bsm> thanks pici
[09:03] <jrib> lnx_: I believe there should be an empty line on line 13192 right before "Package: libgtksourceview1.0-0" -- remember, make the backup first

[09:04] <Sajes> I have a question - is Linus Torvalds pronounced Lee-Nuhs Taur-Vaulds?
[09:04] <xjman> Is there anyone here running a wireless network?
[09:04] <Nofilicity> Me
[09:04] <xjman> Think you can help me get mine started?
[09:05] <Nofilicity> Hmm. The network itself or connecting to it?
[09:05] <veynom> how do i report that bug

[09:05] <xjman> Getting the card to work. It shows its there in the console, it shows that I have the correct driver installed on ndiswrapper but it doesn't work or even show up in GNOME
[09:06] <Nofilicity> hmm
[09:06] <Nofilicity> did you modprobe it?
[09:06] <xjman> Yes
[09:06] <Nofilicity> One minute.
[09:06] <Skelet0n> any1 willing to help me?
[09:06] <Argazm> whassup Skelet0n
[09:06] <xjman> When I modprobe does it give me an output of some sort?
[09:06] <Nofilicity> No
[09:06] <lnx_> jrib , cool its work thanks !
[09:06] <davetarmac> OK, this is getting unreal now. The network connection will randomly drop, pickup, drop, pickup but even when it's picked up I cannot transfer any data
[09:07] <davetarmac> I looked at the connection information in nm-applet and it didn't have an IP address which is why
[09:07] <Nofilicity> Did you do depmod -a
[09:07] <Nofilicity> Did you do "depmod -a"?*
[09:07] <davetarmac> but what I don't get is why it drops in the first place
[09:07] <jrib> lnx_: np, glad it worked
[09:07] <xjman> No, the guide I was following didn't mention that
[09:07] <Skelet0n> On boot i get a  cannot start X server msg
[09:08] <boojah_> is there a way for me to get my file server under places? like mapping drives in windows (sort of)
[09:08] <davetarmac> does anyone have any ideas?
[09:08] <Nofilicity> xjman, http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,installation/
[09:08] <Nofilicity> Read that :)
[09:08] <xjman> Thank you nofilicity
[09:08] <Skelet0n> Argazm-On boot i get a  cannot start X server msg
[09:08] <VWJ1bnR1> Well, Open Sound System detected my card.  What do I need to do to make it work?
[09:08] <epiclulz> are the ntfs drives automatically mounted by ubuntu read-only, right?
[09:08] <Nofilicity> Yw. Tell me if it still doesn't work
[09:08] <Argazm> Skelet0n: is this from a live cd or an HD install ?? and did it use to work
[09:09] <davetarmac> one thing I did notice whilst poking around in the keychain is that I have 2 network connections of the same name, only one is all lowercase and one is sentance case (the correct one). Could this be causing a conflict?
Am I lacking you to the respect?
[09:09] <jorgen> Hello i got a prob.. My screen resolution is maximum 1024x780 on my radeon 9200... and i have followed the instruction on the ubuntu pages.. ??
[09:10] <jorgen> the drivers are installed
[09:10] <Some_ux> hi, need some advice on amd Cooln'Quiet for ubuntu
[09:10] <Nofilicity> Wait
[09:10] <Nofilicity> Whats the problem, jorgen?
[09:10] <matthew_> jorgen is 1024x768 the max resolution on the 9200?
[09:10] <matthew_> jorgen: how is your xorg.conf set up?
Am I lacking you to the respect?
[09:11] <julian2495322> can anyone help get my internet up to speed. its really slow right now
[09:11] <jorgen> dont know.. iam a noob.. but i haved followed the xorg install of drivers on the ubuntu pages
[09:11] <matthew_> julian2495322: what does it return when you type ping -c 4 yahoo.com in terminal?
[09:11] <boojah_> jorgen you might have to enter an option for higher screen resolution in /etc/X11/xorg.conf  under the Section "Screens"
[09:12] <jorgen> is that a file .. and where can i find it
[09:12] <jorgen> oki
[09:12] <praet> jorgen: is that the max res in System > Preferences > Screen resolution
[09:12] <matthew_> jorgen: you need to be sudo to edit the xorg.conf
[09:12] <Nofilicity> jorgen, you can find it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf ;p
[09:12] <Skelet0n> Argazm-At first on live Cd the screen used to go with a sort of white line across it, then i changed from VGA to higher res and it loaded, i installed and it was ok for a while but it still sometimes went white on Boot and shut down. Now i installed nvidia drivers with ENVY and now there are 2 differnt versions of Ubuntu in GRUB and when I start if comes Up with a "cannot start X server" error

[09:13] <matthew_> julian2495322: I don't think it's an OS issue
[09:13] <Argazm> Skelet0n: looks like the nvidia driver you installed went wrong or is the wrong one...
[09:13] <praet> jorgen: open a terminal and type: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:13] <matthew_> julian2495322: when did it become slow?
[09:13] <Argazm> unfortunately I dunno how to undo that... sorry
[09:13] <xjman> Nofilicity now it tells me "  FATAL: Could not open /lib/modules/2.6.20-generic/modules.dep.temp for writing: permission denied Every time I run depmod -a it tells me that

[09:13] <jorgen> iknow can see

[09:16] <Roly[] > is this channel for ubuntu server aswell?
[09:16] <matthew_> julian2495322: I can guarantee you it has nothing to do with the fact that you're using linux though
[09:16] <haggimaus> how i can get windows back????

[09:16] <julian2495322> ok
[09:16] <samiii> genii i didnt get you sorry ?
[09:16] <haggimaus> why ubuntu if you can have windows??
[09:16] <boojah_> jorgen: was that all? are there no  Depth           24 ?
[09:16] <matthew_> julian2495322: the virtual machine has to interface with linux first to get access to the network
[09:16] <julian2495322> maybe its a setting somewhere?
[09:16] <haggimaus> thats just stupid
[09:17] <haggimaus> what is with all the games
[09:17] <julian2495322> yea i know that matthew
[09:17] <julian2495322> i thought it was really weird too
[09:17] <jrib> haggimaus: plesae keep it related to support
[09:17] <Tripokey> Skelet0n try typing dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg it might help

[09:18] <kevinl> anyone here know much about casper/live-initramfs? I am trying to build an ubuntu-based live CD with "live-helper" , but according to debian-live, ubuntu does something nasty in the bootup process that breaks things.
[09:18] <jrib> haggimaus: /join ##windows
[09:18] <chimp> I have an annoying question, every now and then when i boot to xp instead of ubuntu and boot back to ubuntu later, i get error 22 (no partition) because it for some reason changes menu.lst so that the hard drive specified is different
[09:18] <julian2495322> i dont know where to go from here
[09:18] <chimp> Any ideas?
[09:18] <nonix4> Hmm, what kind of a joke is smokeping depending on exim4 | mail-transport-agent ??
[09:18] <jrib> haggimaus: did you install ubuntu over windows or is windows still on your drive?
[09:18] <SpudDogg> haggimaus: just because you dont know how to use ubuntu does not mean it sucks.  it's actually very awesome
[09:18] <matthew_> julian2495322: try popping a live CD into the system and see how the ping goes
[09:18] <haggimaus> widnwos is gone jrib
[09:18] <genii> samiii: Do:   gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list   and go to the line it told you. Put before the http:   part just the word deb and then a space before the http part is. Save the file. then issue: sudo apt-get update
[09:18] <haggimaus> i think
[09:18] <Tripokey> julian2495322: try looking up which dns servers windows is using
[09:18] <julian2495322> good idea
[09:18] <boojah_> haggimaus: did you format you entire drive when you installed ubuntu?
[09:18] <haggimaus> i have no idea
[09:19] <haggimaus> i used free space
[09:19] <matthew_> julian2495322: I don't remember if you can set MTU and TTL in linux but those settings may have changed for some reason
[09:19] <Tripokey> julian2495322: and paste them to /etc/resolv.conf
[09:19] <julian2495322> ok
 haggimaus, this is a windows channel
[09:19] <SpudDogg> haggimaus: so you're blaming ubuntu because YOU didn't read the instructions?
[09:19] <haggimaus> oh great
[09:19] <Argazm> why doesnt the Ubuntu Live CD come with ndiswrapper and gparted already installed... those are important!
[09:19] <julian2495322> ok il try that
[09:19] <haggimaus> hgere you tell me i should got to windows
[09:19] <haggimaus> and there they tell me i should got here
[09:19] <boojah_> haggimaus, if you had free space, and you used free space, then your windows partition is still on the drive
[09:19] <bassgoon> *sigh* <Kiryn_> go to ##ubuntu or #ubuntu and ask those assholes
[09:19] <matthew_> julian2495322: that's the only reason I can think of that would cause a slow down, but I think it might affect the VM as well, so it's weird
[09:19] <haggimaus> so what the ... is going on in here?!?!
[09:19] <julian2495322> do i get the dns information by using ipconfig in windows
[09:19] <jrib> haggimaus: then just put your windows cd in the drive and reboot.  Then install windows over ubuntu (delete the ubuntu partition using the installer)
[09:19] <haggimaus> is there a documentary how to get windows back?
[09:19] <jrib> !enter | haggimaus

[09:20] <julian2495322> yea
[09:20] <matthew_> julian2495322: why are you looking for DNS info?
[09:20] <SpudDogg> jrib, is this guy for real?  something tells me he's a regular playing a joke or something
[09:20] <julian2495322> because it was suggested
[09:20] <haggimaus> it really sucks for newvsb just installing ubuntu without thinking..... ALL MY GAMES are gone noiw,, it dont seem to be there and windows ist gone...  FOR EVER.....   omg
[09:20] <matthew_> julian2495322: your pings are the problem, not bad DNS server, or else you'd have no problem by putting in an IP address
[09:21] <jorgen> hello.. i reconf the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and put the 1280x1024 option in.. but nothing changed when i rebooted.. dont get the option when i try to change the resolution
[09:21] <regeya> haggimaus: pre-install research is a must...as you've learned the hard way.  you have my condolences.  I did the same thing on my first linux install in '96
[09:21] <Juhaz> yes, not thinking does tend to suck. better not do that in the future
[09:21] <xjman> Are you using KDE or GNOME jorgen
[09:21] <jrib> haggimaus: I've told you how to install windows again.  Keep the offtopic discussion in #ubuntu-offtopic, not here
[09:21] <matthew_> julian2495322: Well give the liveCD a try, it should work. But yeah, DNS info is in ipconfig
[09:21] <jorgen> gnome
[09:21] <Argazm> I've never gone back to XP since I installed Ubuntu... the only thing I'm having troubles with is the quicktime plugin for Opera...
[09:21] <julian2495322> ok
[09:22] <dwxreaper> ubuntu sucks because it doesn't have good remote control features, but i like it
[09:22] <samiii> Could not save the file /etc/apt/sources.list.
[09:22] <boojah_> haggimaus: if you used free space, ubuntu creates a new partition on the unallocated space that wasn't in use, it doesn't touch windows at all.. if its gone you must have somehow deleted the windows partition
[09:22] <Pici> !offtopic
[09:22] <Ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:22] <haggimaus> lol you fools :D
[09:22] <xjman> Jorgen, have you gone to System > Screen Resolution?
[09:22] <samiii> i cant save it
[09:22] <haggimaus> i was just joking
[09:22] <jorgen> yes
[09:22] <chimp> Sorry to ask again, but lots of spam in here
[09:22] <Skelet0n> Anyone else have any advice before i try tripokeys method?
[09:22] <chimp> I have an annoying question, every now and then when i boot to xp instead of ubuntu and boot back to ubuntu later, i get error 22 (no partition) because it for some reason changes menu.lst so that the hard drive specified is different
[09:22] <SpudDogg> thought so jrib :)
[09:22] <xjman> What happens when you try and change it
[09:23] <matthew_> haggimaus: It seems you're the only one laughing at your joke
[09:23] <boojah_> haggimaus: you have a very bad humor :P
[09:23] <SpudDogg> haggimaus: i called you when you started...look back, you'll see
[09:23] <edwin> whats the support for USB wireless adaptors on ubuntu?
[09:24] <SpudDogg> edwin: are you thinking of ndiswrapper?
[09:24] <chimp> Bah so my problem is strange and unknown thats going to make it more difficult
[09:24] <boojah_> jorgen can you make a new pastebin of you xorg.conf?
[09:24] <matthew_> chimp: the best solution is to remove windows altogether =P
[09:24] <xjman> Ok, depmod -a won't work at all. It just gives me a fatal error and the file path
[09:24] <edwin> well all i know is my friend has a laptop with usb wireless card
[09:24] <chimp> Matthew, such a good solution, and so close to doing it as well :P
[09:24] <neo_> \quit
[09:25] <matthew_> chimp: but yeah, that's a pretty strange problem. Does it scan your drive when you boot xp?
[09:25] <chimp> Nope
[09:25] <chimp> I have to boot live cd
[09:25] <matthew_> chimp: hmm I see...
[09:25] <chimp> and open boot.lst
[09:25] <matthew_> chimp: oh? that's really strange
[09:25] <chimp> keeps changing from hd0 to hd1
[09:25] <Skelet0n> Argazm-At first on live Cd the screen used to go with a sort of white line across it, then i changed from VGA to higher res and it loaded, i installed and it was ok for a while but it still sometimes went white on Boot and shut down. Now i installed nvidia drivers with ENVY and now there are 2 differnt versions of Ubuntu in GRUB and when I start if comes Up with a "cannot start X server" error
[09:26] <matthew_> chimp: xp shouldn't be able to access ext3 partitions, much less modify files...
[09:26] <Skelet0n> Anyone-At first on live Cd the screen used to go with a sort of white line across it, then i changed from VGA to higher res and it loaded, i installed and it was ok for a while but it still sometimes went white on Boot and shut down.

[09:26] <Skelet0n> soz for double
[09:26] <matthew_> chimp: perhaps grub is autodetecting something incorrectly?
[09:26] <chimp> Indeed, problem though is that its only happened to me after having booted into xp
[09:26] <Argazm> Skelet0n: sorry dude, I dunno how to reset your drivers... looks like they didnt install properly or they are the wrong ones...  check the ubuntu forums to see how to reset your gfx card back to norm
[09:26] <chimp> Maybe coincidence
[09:26] <matthew_> chimp: yeah. Does it happen repeatedly?
[09:27] <chimp> happened about 4-5 times now
[09:27] <CoasterMaster> !jeos
[09:27] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jeos - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:27] <chimp> Last time was just there now
[09:27] <chimp> and i got pissed off
[09:27] <matthew_> chimp: what's the options under the xp boot line in grub?
[09:27] <chimp> Livecd takes ages to boot :P
[09:27] <CoasterMaster> !grub
[09:27] <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
[09:27] <matthew_> chimp: yeah =P. Are you on it right now?
[09:27] <Gowrav> Hi room.. since i am not able to download the ubuntu fromnet due to slow net speed and its even not available to me here, but since i do have debian and ubuntu is based on debian .. is there any chance to download minimum files to convert debian into ubuntu ?? might be a silly question but if possible ....
[09:28] <chimp> root		(hd0,0)
[09:28] <chimp> savedefault
[09:28] <chimp> makeactive
[09:28] <chimp> chainloader	+1
[09:28] <chimp> is what i have under xp one
[09:28] <Devo> Does anyone here use teamspeak on Ubuntu?
[09:28] <matthew_> chimp: ahh crap I've got to head out, try playing around with those options a bit. I'm not sure what the "savedefault" option does.
[09:28] <chimp> And nah, i got off livecd after fixing it
[09:28] <matthew_> chimp: good luck
[09:28] <njan> Guys, haggimaus has popped into ##windows with a grub problem..
[09:29] <chimp> cheers
[09:29] <chimp> cya
[09:29] <njan> from the sounds of it, ubuntu hasn't setup a chainloader entry in grub.conf and he doesn't get the option to boot into windows after installing ubuntu.
[09:29] <njan> Can someone help him out to configure it properly? :)
[09:29] <VWJ1bnR1> join #ubuntu-oregon
[09:29] <Pici> Gowrav: Crossgrading is really not a good idea.
[09:29] <RedRose> I have an External 320 Gb HDD, USB connected, what is a good filesystem type that wll allow it to be seen both in linux(Ubuntu) and windows?
[09:29] <nickrud> Gowrav: not really ... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuDistributors is probably your quickest way
[09:30] <julian2495322> well now both are slow. so it must me my router or modem
[09:30] <Some_ux> this is odd, doesnt webmin support temperature readings ?
[09:30] <hybernate> is there some way to find out why the loading bar freezes for like one min in the middle of the start up?
[09:30] <edwin> which is the best supported pcmcia network card ?
[09:31] <nickrud> njan: suggest he get the super grub disk
[09:31] <genii> hybernate: during grub, hit ESC. edit the default kernel line which is loading to remove quiet and splash. then it will show you what part it is working on when the slowdown occurs
[09:32] <Some_ux> ok this is weird ? dont they consider CPU temperature readings something which system administrators may want to perform ???
[09:32] <samiii> i can not save my source.list ?
[09:32] <hybernate> thx
[09:32] <RedRose> samiii, Are you logged in as root?
[09:32] <RedRose> samiii, or are you using sudo?
[09:32] <samiii> yes
[09:32] <haggimaus> thanks njan
[09:33] <RedRose> samiii, what file editor are you using?
[09:33] <gerro> Some_ux: that is odd, what sort of conditions are the rooms the computers are in?
[09:33] <njan> haggimaus, yvw. There should be a guide on this somewhere - it's probably just easiest to be walked through. I'm sure there are folk in here who do this all the time.. *looks around*
[09:33] <Max_-> I've been suggested to go to /usr/src/... to go to the kernel source directory... but I get 4 directories... which one is the good one?  linux-headers-2.6.20-15  linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic  linux-headers-2.6.20-16  linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic
[09:33] <samiii> from terminal
[09:33] <pike_> edwin: cisco makes well supported cards
[09:33] <nickrud> njan: haggimaus I got a couple minutes, I guess ;)
[09:33] <Argazm> has anyone ever gotten a Belkin UPS working properly under Ubuntu ???
[09:33] <njan> haggimaus, you basically just need to be adding a chainloader entry in grub with /dev/sda1 (hd0,0) as the partition...
[09:34] <njan> nickrud, http://pastebin.ca/694399 <= there's the output of fdisk -l /dev/sda on his system :)
[09:34] <RedRose> samiii, I mean what are you using to manipulate sources.list? nano, gedit, etc?
[09:34] <Some_ux> gerro: i was reffering to the Linux web administration tool called webmin. it does not show the host cpu temperature
[09:34] <samiii> gedit
[09:34] <SpudDogg> anyone running the 8.41 ati driver yet?  looks like it was released today
[09:35] <samiii> redrose gedit
[09:35] <RedRose> samiii, Ok, are you opening gedit from the terminal or from gnome?
[09:35] <samiii> from terminal
[09:35] <mitcheloc> hey guys, i've got a problem, i'm running edgy, was working for a while, but now when i sign in the screen seems to flash and then i get sent back to the login screen...?
[09:35] <RedRose> so you did a sudo gedit in the term
[09:36] <haggimaus> bye all!
[09:36] <samiii> yes redrose
[09:36] <nickrud> haggimaus: add this http://pastebin.com/m37fbdfd to the end of /boot/grub/menu.lst  after the AUTOMAGIC line
[09:36] <Pockets> Hello all, I've got a question. I'm having some major problems connecting my new Ubuntu box to my rt61 wireless. I don;t have a wired connection here. It was suggested that I install a new version of the kernel. Where whould I get one to put on a CD? I've looked everywhere.
[09:36] <haggimaus> after that just reboot Nickrud??
[09:36] <RedRose> samiii, do you know what error message you are getting when you attempt to save?
[09:36] <samiii> yes
[09:37] <SpudDogg> does anyone know what this error means?  ./packages/Ubuntu/ati-packager.sh: 175: dpkg-architecture: not found
[09:37] <SpudDogg> Error: unsupported architecture:
[09:37] <haggimaus> thanks!!
[09:37] <genii> redrose Should be gksudo for gnome graphical apps
[09:37] <Some_ux> I'm sure i am doing something wrong, surely you can read cpu temperatures on an ubuntu system
[09:37] <nickrud> haggimaus: yes, you should be able to boot your windows; if you see something about grub on the screen, but no choices, hit escape to see them
[09:37] <RedRose> but won't sudo be just as effective?
[09:37] <Pockets> Additionally, it's been suggested I SHOULD be using linux-image-i386 instead of linux-image-generic. How would I fix that one?
[09:37] <gerro> some_ux: only if computer has thermal sensors on the cpu can you see temperature
[09:37] <gerro> some_ux: acpi -t would show it
[09:38] <samiii> i just put deb before http and want to save the file but it gave me error that canot save the file becaise of permisasion
[09:38] <esperegu> saluton
[09:38] <nickrud> SpudDogg: you should install dpkg-dev to get dpkg-architecture
[09:38] <gerro> samiii: do it as root
[09:38] <RedRose> samiii, ? In firefox?
[09:38] <SpudDogg> nickrud: will try.  thanks
[09:38] <samiii> \E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[09:38] <samiii> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? ..redrose i got this message
[09:38] <Some_ux> gerro: it shows 40deg Celcius
[09:39] <esperegu> if I upgrade to the current beta of 7.10 will I then automaticly get the release version via the updates when it comes out?
[09:39] <nickrud> RedRose: don't use sudo with gui, it doesn't set some permissions correctly, and can make your configs writeable only by root. Use gksudo
[09:39] <Tripokey> samiii: try changing your sources from synaptic instead
[09:39] <genii> samiii: If you are in console/terminal anyhow, use nano then. eg:   sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list    then make the change of putting the missing deb part in before the http part. then use ctrl-x to exit. Choose Y when it asks to save
[09:39] <bullgard4> esperegu: yes.
[09:39] <esperegu> bullgard4: thx
[09:39] <chimp> matthew_, if you are there at all
[09:40] <samiii> ok genii
[09:40] <chimp> i think i may have sorted it
[09:40] <esperegu> my nvidia is not working
[09:40] <esperegu> bullgard4: I hope that it does in 7.10
[09:40] <genii> samiii: The error you just put describes that something like apt-get or synaptic is using the dpkg system as well. You may not be able to save the file even as root
[09:40] <nickrud> esperegu: while the devel process is going, be sure to use dist-upgrade or the upgrade-manager to get any package installation changes
[09:40] <Max_-> I've been suggested to go to /usr/src/... to go to the kernel source directory... but I get 4 directories... which one is the good one?  linux-headers-2.6.20-15  linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic  linux-headers-2.6.20-16  linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic
[09:41] <esperegu> nickrud: not standard upgrade? (will my install be fucked?)
[09:41] <omturyx_w> how do I check the list of available packages?
[09:41] <omturyx_w> which command?
[09:41] <Andy80> hi
[09:42] <bullgard4> esperegu: I do not have any special information about nvidia in 7.10. I have only made the experience personally that every new Ubuntu release I used had a better hardware recognition and support.
[09:42] <samiii> wow it works
[09:42] <nickrud> esperegu: upgrade won't add/remove packages, dist-upgrade will. During devel, sometimes packages are added removed, and upgrade won't handle it correctly
[09:42] <genii> samiii: OK now: sudo apt-get update
[09:42] <rrittenhouse> The file /var/spool/mail/root file is 6.6GB and it seems the mail command is hanging - any ideas?
[09:42] <Tripokey> Max_- dont know what you are tryong to do but the one with the highest number is probably the one you are using
[09:42] <Andy80> could someone please copy-paste me the right source.list urls for feisty, please? or tell me where I can fin them. Thanks :)
[09:42] <samiii> ok genii so u r back now n thanx again
[09:42] <nickrud> esperegu: but any other gutsy questions really belong on #ubuntu+1
[09:42] <bullgard4> esperegu: You may enquire more specifically in channel #ubuntu+1
[09:42] <esperegu> nickrud: just  run dist-upgrade ?
[09:43] <genii> samiii: np
[09:43] <esperegu> k. thx
[09:43] <Tripokey> Max_-: and the files in the generic folders are just links to its non generic counterparts
[09:43] <samiii> genii ....E: Malformed line 33 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist)
[09:43] <samiii> n also thanx redrose
[09:44] <veynom> how do i kill my x-server?
[09:44] <CoasterMaster> veynom, CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE

[09:44] <Kitsu[home] > Is Daniel Chen here?
[09:44] <samiii> genii ....E: Malformed line 33 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist)
[09:44] <CoasterMaster> veynom, it will automatically kill and restart X (and all programs running in it)
[09:45] <regeya> veynom: if you're using default runlevel for ubuntu desktop, it should start up again, CoasterMaster
[09:45] <genii> samiii: I think it would just be easier if you used the pastebin website and pasted the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list file there. Then we can make changes needed, you can copy the changes back and try again.
[09:45] <regeya> sounds like you probably are
[09:45] <veynom> k
[09:45] <regeya> I meant that to go toward veynom CoasterMaster

[09:48] <Some_ux> based on stress
[09:48] <pike_> gbw: might get a quicker response in #kubuntu
[09:49] <Paddy_EIRE> Some_ux, use the frequency scaling applets and choose a govern from there

[09:49] <Some_ux> i dont run Ubuntu with gnome

[09:49] <Paddy_EIRE> oh
[09:49] <genii> Damn. i sometimes forget ppl don't know diff between paste and pastebin
[09:49] <gbw> pike_, i will give it a try, but actually, it is ok if i use other software, do you know any software?
[09:49] <Some_ux> it's completly CLI
[09:49] <xeer_> when ubuntu loads, i do hear a quick crackle i'm assuming means it's loading the driver

[09:52] <Ubotu> samiii: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)

[09:52] <genii> samiii: That way anyone who cares to can go see it
[09:52] <Snaury[home] > Some_ux: that module allows you to set frequency. Then daemons actually change it. In Gnome "CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor" does that, just add it to your panel.
[09:53] <veynom>  I'm trying to install my nvidia driver and it says i'm running an x-server, how do i get to where it's just command line?

[09:57] <leladia> how do i change the value of my c-shell prompt?
[09:57] <genii> samiii: pm does not seem to be working with you either. Did you register the name "samiii" to freenode yet? If not pm won't go
[09:57] <samiii> genii did u got the file now ??
[09:57] <noor> finally
[09:57] <noor> alright guys i need help :D
[09:58] <teamwork> chimp, you'll need ntfs-3g, as well, in order to mount it . that, in co-ordination with fstab, will have your ntfs drive on boot.
[09:58] <genii> samiii: No, did not get it
[09:58] <Some_ux> OK, so how do i install powernowd ?
[09:58] <leladia> so that each time i change my shell from bash to c i will get the same prompt!

[09:58] <chimp> cheers
[09:58] <samiii> i just paste in parts now
[09:58] <teamwork> !ntfs-3g | chimp
[09:58] <Ubotu> chimp: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[09:58] <noor> need help making VLC play WMV files :D
[09:58] <chimp> yeah, i can already access the partitions easy enough
[09:58] <genii> samiii: If you paste your sources.list in here you will be booted. Even if it is in parts.
[09:58] <chimp> just they need mounted on boot up each time
[09:58] <southernman1> busy bot... eh?

[10:00] <fakenick> why not? :o

[10:03] <Sajes> Does anyone know where that audioclip of Linus saying Linux is?
[10:03] <teamwork> noor, installing windows *after* linux can be complicated.
[10:03] <thedash> regeya :: I told it to run verbosely as well, and so far it's not very helpful, it says it built the file list, then the cursor is blinking after the first file name [which happened to be a very large file] , and my network is pegged
[10:03] <johwil> noor: want some VCL help?
[10:03] <regeya> Sajes: should be on kernel.org, I think it's in SillySounds
[10:04] <rdz> hi all. i've a queation regarding 'evolution': is there some way to display mails in plaintext instead of html, if both are available?

[10:07] <samiii> firefox

[10:14] <noor> johwil i can play wmv's with mplayer but i cant stream them
[10:14] <genii> samiii: the problem is that the entries for canonical have no second part like the other entries. For now just put a # in front of those 2 entries. Edit as before, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:14] <noor> johwil: http://www.jumptv.com/en/channel/activatv/        does that website work on your comp?
[10:14] <johwil> noor: what went wrong with libvlc0
[10:15] <fakenick> bibuy fellas =)
[10:15] <Gowrav> hi room.. downloaded and burnt CD of ubuntu Distro in cyber cafe and at home it shows kernal image corrupted ..now  I made ISO file back from CD by ImgBurn with some read errors. and bit torrent client downloaded ... not how i can download the error areas only in this file .. if you can help please ...sorry for repeat entry but really need to do so ...
[10:15] <samiii> `ok
[10:15] <stefg> Gowrav: If you are using a Bittorrent client you could try to present the iso to it and do a check on it, hopefully it works
[10:15] <noor> johwil: i dunno it seems as if i have 2 vlc's installed and it wont play any wmv's :(
[10:15] <Tripokey> noor : you could try http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=379
[10:15] <VWJ1bnR1> Is there a site where I can check out distro ratings?
[10:15] <noor> tripokey i will try now
[10:15] <Gowrav> stefg: tahnx for your replay .. but thats my problemi don't know how ..
[10:15] <magnetron> VWJ1bnR1: distrowatch
[10:16] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, oh I can recieve the rss as well as the ical in evolutions calendar
[10:16] <southernman1> VWJ1bnR1: www.distrowatch.com
[10:16] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, I can not figure out how to add it
[10:16] <johwil> noor: no it doesnt
[10:17] <noor> Johwil: the website dosent work for you either 0_o strange
[10:17] <noor> tripokey how do i install it
[10:17] <southernman1> magnetron: guess I'm not quick enough ;)
[10:17] <Mizugori> hi
[10:17] <delta____> Hey there! I have a question regarding the Midnight Commander: If I recall correctly, the midnight commander used to have a "[background] " button to let mc e.g. copy files as a background task. Today, however, I cannot seem to find it. Where should I look?
[10:17] <southernman1> Hi Mizugori
[10:17] <Mizugori> is there a good program
[10:17] <Mizugori> for linux
[10:17] <Tripokey> noor : sry... i missed the warning on that page.. it wont work with the wine version that is in the repository
[10:17] <Mizugori> to burn image files to disc
[10:17] <stefg> Gowrav: the procedure is different in each program, you should rather see the guides for the clients. If you can wait a couple of weeks, there's a service called shipit. they send ubuntu CDs for free
[10:17] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, is the type caldav, or 'on the web'
[10:18] <delta____> Mizugori: I would recommend Gnome Baker
[10:18] <stefg> !shipit | Gowrav
[10:18] <Ubotu> Gowrav: shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[10:18] <centyx> Mizugori: cdrecord
[10:18] <noor> tripokey how do i install wine
[10:18] <genii> samiii: Then as before (in case you forgot) ctrl-x to exit, choose Y to save then enter to keep same name. After this, again with: sudo apt-get update
[10:18] <Mizugori> ok so like
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> !wine
[10:18] <Ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[10:18] <Mizugori> apt-get install gnome baker
[10:18] <Tripokey> noor : sudo apt get install wine
[10:18] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, I'm trying to figure it out myself :)
[10:18] <Mizugori> apt-get install cdrecord
[10:18] <Mizugori> etc
[10:18] <southernman1> Mizugori: right click on the file and select burn to cd or use cdrecord on the cli
[10:18] <Mizugori> ?
[10:18] <Paddy_EIRE> :)
[10:18] <magnetron> Mizugori: standard ubuntu supports image burning, just right click the .iso or .cue and select burn
[10:18] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, i've figured out how to do it once... but not subscribe
[10:18] <noor> tripokey will try now :D
[10:18] <Paddy_EIRE> oh.. yeah me to
[10:18] <Mizugori> oh cool
[10:18] <Tripokey> noor : then you run winecfg to setup your environment
[10:18] <genii> AFK a couple minutes
[10:18] <centyx> magnetron: hey that's great.
[10:19] <delta____> Mizugori: sudo aptitude install gnomebaker
[10:19] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, I just downloaded the .ics before and used file > import in evolution
[10:19] <noor>  sudo apt get install wine
[10:19] <noor> tripokey sudo: apt: command not found
[10:19] <Gowrav> Ubotu: | stefg : very thanx for that service but i am really stucked some where and need to do this fast ..I know if i would have fast internet connection then i could download it again .. but ...okey checking bit torrent clients mannual .. but is it possiblewith bittorrent clien to find the corruption in downloaded file !!
[10:19] <noor> :'(
[10:19] <delta____> noor: use aptitude :)
[10:19] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, although the functionality is no good If its not subscribed
[10:20] <southernman1> noor: sudo apt-get or sudo aptitude
[10:20] <samiii> genii still same eror     E: Malformed line 33 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist)
[10:20] <magnetron> centyx: i know, it's so intuitive. people get surprised when it's much easier than in windows or macosx
[10:20] <southernman1> noor: don't forget the dash between apt and get    apt-get
[10:20] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, pitty no one on the fridge thought to add a guide :] 
[10:20] <Tripokey> noor : ooops typo by me sry do as southernman1 says
[10:20] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, i'll think of something
[10:20] <Paddy_EIRE> :)
[10:21] <centyx> magnetron: i always use cdrecord or cdrdao. i never would have thought of doing it that way.
[10:21] <VWJ1bnR1> southernman1, I was thinking more of a short list-like rating.
[10:21] <delta____> Is there any reason people still prefer apt-get over aptitude?
[10:21] <noor> ill try it southernmanl
[10:21] <southernman1> Tripokey: it's all good ;)
[10:21] <inimesekene> any instructions to help with installing the new fglrx yet?
[10:22] <noor> dosent work for me guys
[10:22] <southernman1> VWJ1bnR1: that's the only one I know of... Pricechild or bot may have better link for distro rankings
[10:22] <logixoul> hi
[10:22] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, like this is plain english http://www.poly.edu/calendar/main.php?view=subscribe
[10:22] <fastputty> somone know hwta the hell is tat http://pastebin.com/m10bd47d5
[10:22] <stefg> Gowrav: that is very likely to end up in a broken and worthless file... I can understand your situation, but it is beyond the scope of this channel to do application support on BT-clients. Check if there's a specialized support chat for your preferred BT-client
[10:22] <noor> trypokey dosent work :'(
[10:22] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, http://gnomejournal.org/article/8/evolution-20 looks maybe useful
[10:22] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, ppl on the fridge need a good kick :P
[10:22] <Some_ux> how do i get a list of all current processes
[10:22] <southernman1> logixoul: hi there
[10:22] <Some_ux> ?
[10:22] <Gowrav> stefg: thanx ...checking
[10:23] <delta____> fastputty: Looks like an upstream problem
[10:23] <delta____> noor: Could you give some details?
[10:23] <fastputty> delta____: upstream? what do you mean
[10:23] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, http://icalshare.com will let it happen!!! :)
[10:23] <noor> http://www.jumptv.com/en/channel/activatv/    IF THIS WEBSITE WORKS FOR ANY ONE PLAYES THE VIDEO PLEASE help me
[10:23] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, i'll just search for existing fridge and if not will add it then we'll share the feed :)
[10:23] <Paddy_EIRE> :D
[10:23] <genii> back
[10:23] <Paddy_EIRE> I love you
[10:24] <noor> delta: i cant seem to play this site http://www.jumptv.com/en/channel/activatv/
[10:24] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[10:24] <delta____> Paddy_EIRE: I recommend egroupware for .ics sharing
[10:24] <fastputty> delta____: what do yo mean by upstream
[10:24] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, maybe... maybe not... erm...
[10:24] <genii> samiii: OK, is : sudo apt-get update        working properly and finishing now?
[10:24] <Tripokey> noor : another approach you can try is to install windows in a virtual computer using vmware and qemu
[10:24] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, bah maybe not :'(
[10:25] <Paddy_EIRE> delta____, what I'm trying to do is subscribe to the fridge's calendar http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event
[10:25] <southernman1> noor: the video plays for me :/
[10:25] <VWJ1bnR1> PriceChild, do you happen to know of a web page with a short list view of linux distro ratings?
[10:25] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, grrr
[10:25] <noor> tripokey ill have that as an option ty
[10:25] <delta____> fastputty: I meant it seems to be a problem with the program itself, as it is supplied by the authors, not with the people who download, compile and re-package it
[10:25] <PriceChild> !best | VWJ1bnR1
[10:25] <Ubotu> VWJ1bnR1: 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.
[10:25] <stefg> !shockwave | noor
[10:25] <Ubotu> noor: Shockwave is currently only available for Windows. To run it under !Wine, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Shockwave
[10:25] <noor> southernmanl dood what are you using?
[10:25] <fastputty> delta____: ok..... O_O
[10:25] <genii> VWJ1bnR1: Doesn't distrowatch have all them on right side in order of how many downloads?
[10:25] <teamwork> i'd love to use evolution. but is it possible to set up multiple, separate accounts on it?
[10:26] <TTilus> teamwork: at least i have  ;)
[10:26] <southernman1> noor: just basic Ubuntu with gstreamer plugins
[10:26] <t6524> I am trying to get my WG511T PCMCIA Card to work while connected to my desktop Feisty PC via a PCMCIA to PCI Adapter Card. The WG511T Card was recognized in the 'hardware information' - it even showed up in the Restricted Drivers Manager (HAL). But it would not show up in the Network Manager. I then used NDISWrapper to install the WIndows Driver - the driver installed - but within NDIS - the Hardware shows as NOT being installed.
[10:26] <noor> ubotu does it really need shockwave?
[10:26] <teamwork> TTilus, yeah?  the two accounts aren't lumped togethe in the same "inbox"?
[10:26] <Paddy_EIRE> thx for the link but egroupware is over kill in my situation
[10:26] <TTilus> teamwork: edit -> preferences
[10:26] <newdude> hey guys, how do i run .run files through the terminal? im trying to run the new ati driver but its a .run file, im not sure how to get em going through the terminal
[10:27] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, I'm calling in backup
[10:27] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[10:27] <TTilus> teamwork: well, you _can_ have them share inbox if you set it up that way, but at least i have separate inboxes
[10:27] <VWJ1bnR1> genii, Yeah.  I guess I'm looking for something where I can choose how I want to see the ratings.
[10:27] <newdude> anyone?
[10:27] <teamwork> TTilus, oh ok.  i guess I just need to play around with it more.  :)
[10:27] <delta____> Could it be the ubuntu package of "Midnight Commander" doesn't feature a [Background]  button for letting copy/move operations run in the background?
[10:28] <newdude> how do i run .run files?
[10:28] <TTilus> teamwork: do you pull your mail to your box?
[10:28] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, I would love to get this running... then the ubuntu-ie team would be one more step in the organised direction :) .. also would help with getting a LUG sorted for my neck of the woods
[10:28] <defrysk> newdude, sh blah.run
[10:28] <delta____> newdude: bash
[10:28] <newdude> ty
[10:28] <teamwork> TTilus, yes, i download my email to my inbox.  it's just, I never could figure out how to not download my wife's mail to the same inbox.
[10:28] <TTilus> teamwork: i use my accounts via imap
[10:28] <ambrose_> HEY GUYS
[10:29] <defrysk> teamwork, set your wifes email to junk

[10:29] <TTilus> teamwork: dunno if you can have multiple "this computer" accounts
[10:29] <noor> alright guys im downloading WINE XD
[10:29] <ambrose_> wine isnt aviable for power pc huh?
[10:30] <t6524> I am trying to get my WG511T PCMCIA Card to work while connected to my desktop Feisty PC via a PCMCIA to PCI Adapter Card. The WG511T Card was recognized in the 'hardware information' - it even showed up in the Restricted Drivers Manager (HAL). But it would not show up in the Network Manager. I then used NDISWrapper to install the WIndows Driver - the driver installed - but within NDIS - the Hardware shows as NOT being installed.  Any thought
[10:30] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, we're/they're stumped I'm afraid.
[10:30] <dgjones> teamwork, either create a rule so that male to your wifes account goes into a specific folder, or create another user on the system that your wife can log into with her own settings/email account only
[10:30] <teamwork> TTilus, it's just too easy to do in Thunderbird.  I can name the accounts whatever I want, and they're all nice and separated. bah.
[10:30] <nando> hi guys.... i am searching a way do generate binary deltas for linux and windows binaries. are there some tools out there which can handle both?
[10:30] <Tripokey> noor : if you follow this guide you will get the latest version of it : http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[10:30] <Denied> hello
[10:30] <Mizugori> hey guys FYI xfreakk is a 300 dollar euro whore, just in case you're looking for a good time
[10:30] <Paddy_EIRE> yeah.. seems to be a problem thx for the help PriceChild
[10:30] <TTilus> teamwork: hum, wifes?  the problem is you should not be using the same user account in the first place!
[10:30] <ambrose_> ha already there
[10:30] <Mizugori> *dollar euro = euro
[10:30] <ambrose_> =] 
[10:30] <noor> thx tripokey
[10:31] <VWJ1bnR1> From a paranoid standpoint, how good is the security in DSL-N compared to Ubuntu?
[10:31] <southernman1> Mizugori: keep it civil
[10:31] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, I'll settle myself with setting up evolution for pgp
[10:31] <TTilus> teamwork: your user account is yours and your wife should have her own
[10:31] <r2d2rogers> Possible stupid question, but can anyone point me to a good gpg key server or at the right FAQ?
[10:31] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, pgp?
[10:31] <rathel> Paddy_EIRE, I found a soltuion for you.
[10:31] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, oh completely different?
[10:31] <Paddy_EIRE> gpg
[10:31] <Paddy_EIRE> :P
[10:31] <Denied> yo can some1 tell me a good irc bot for my server something simple
[10:31] <Mizugori> lol
[10:31] <PriceChild> !supybot | Denied
[10:31] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about supybot - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:31] <Paddy_EIRE> rathel, oh

[10:31] <teamwork> TTilus,  all she does is download email and surf the web about once every two weeks. setting up a separate account isn't necessary.
[10:31] <Mizugori> i told them ur a 300 euro whore
[10:31] <xfreakk> Question : Anyone know of any CMS's for webservers that use SQLITE because i cant get mysql working
[10:31] <Sajes> sheetz. :\
[10:31] <rathel> Paddy_EIRE, /usr/lib/evolution-webcal/evolution-webcal http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event/ical/all/all
[10:31] <rathel>  Pu that in terminal.
[10:31] <Mizugori> and they told me to keep it civil
[10:32] <Sajes> how do I change my password -_-
[10:32] <Mizugori> i was just trying to advertise a bit for you
[10:32] <PriceChild> Sajes, /msg nickserv set password <newpassword>
[10:32] <Denied> tank you
[10:32] <xfreakk> lol
[10:32] <Mizugori> i mean, i know you're broke and everything
[10:32] <Tripokey> Sajes type passwd
[10:32] <PriceChild> Sajes, no </>'s
[10:32] <Denied> i meant thankS*
[10:32] <Sajes> FUCK
[10:32] <Denied> :P
[10:32] <PriceChild> Sajes, and watch the language please :)
[10:32] <TTilus> teamwork: setting up separate account is so fast and easy that your argument just does not play  ;)
[10:32] <Sajes> woot changed it.
[10:32] <Mizugori> wait r there rules in here
[10:32] <Mizugori> like people dont like if u say fuck??
[10:32] <teamwork> TTilus, i substitute my reality in place of yours and I win.  :)
[10:33] <TTilus> teamwork: and you can just switch users back and forth
[10:33] <dgjones> !ohmy | Mizugori
[10:33] <southernman1> kick em price
[10:33] <TTilus> teamwork: d'uh!
[10:33] <Ubotu> Mizugori: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:33] <Mizugori> what the heck does ohmy do
[10:33] <delta____> teamwork: You do not even need to log-in to the other account if all you want is run a problem. "xhost local: && sudo su otheracc ..." does the job quite nicely
[10:33] <Mizugori> and no offense but i doubt too many kids are on here learning linux
[10:33] <Paddy_EIRE> rathel, how should that command look? like this sudo /usr/lib/evolution-webcal/evolution-webcal http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event/ical/all/all
[10:33] <Dr_Willis> !bot

[10:33] <SoulChild> How do I make gthumb the default application if i doubleclick a picture ???
[10:33] <defrysk> Mizugori, you'd be surprised
[10:34] <teamwork> delta____, riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
[10:34] <Paddy_EIRE> Mizugori, its just nicer that all.. profanity is the strongest weapon of the weak mind
[10:34] <rathel> Paddy_EIRE, No sudo, it doesn't give an output but it'll be in evolution next time you open it.
[10:34] <Mizugori> that sounds like someone a soccer mom would say
[10:34] <xfreakk> Question : Anyone know of any CMS's for webservers that use SQLITE because i cant get mysql working
[10:34] <southernman1> nice job Paddy_EIRE ;)
[10:34] <SoulChild> How do I make gthumb the default application if i doubleclick a picture ???
[10:35] <delta____> xfreakk: How about pmwiki? ;-)
[10:35] <TTilus> teamwork: setting up a separate account is Kosher(TM) way of handling your situation and will probably help you avoid several other problems too
[10:35] <xfreakk> delta: no i dont know about pmwiki
[10:35] <Paddy_EIRE> rathel, bash: /usr/lib/evolution-webcal/evolution-webcal: No such file or directory
[10:36] <xfreakk> delta: but i will check it out
[10:36] <Paddy_EIRE> thats from typing this rathel '/usr/lib/evolution-webcal/evolution-webcal http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event/ical/all/all'
[10:36] <delta____> xfreakk: 80% of the time, you don't need a full-blown CMS to do what your client wants :)
[10:37] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, that file isn't meant to be executable is it?
[10:37] <rathel> Paddy_EIRE, hmm.. I don't what to tell you, I'm still kind of new to linux, it worked for me without problems.
[10:37] <Paddy_EIRE> rathel, hm
[10:37] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, I dunno.. rathel reckons it works for him
[10:37] <xfreakk> delta: Roger that...thank you

[10:38] <stefg> !install | Gowrav
[10:38] <Ubotu> Gowrav: 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

[10:39] <Sajes> Oi, I'm 15 years old.. So, I decided to learn Linux early.. But, I'm at the computer 24/7. I've been using windows for too long.
[10:39] <Gowrav> Ubotu: : stefg thanx reading now ..
[10:39] <Dr_Willis> Too long? heh.. I got computers older then you. :)
[10:39] <southernman1> lol
[10:39] <Sajes> :D actually, so do I.
[10:39] <delta____> Gowrav: If you *really* want to avoid burning a disc, you could run a VMWare "VM Application" of Ubuntu, then use debootstrap to copy files to a partition of your disk
[10:40] <NT117> Sajes, if you get Compiz Fusion working properly ,  then u can show off to ur friends how  l33t u r
[10:40] <Sajes> I ripped a pentium II stick CPU out of my old computer to see if it would sell.. Noone bought it.
[10:40] <Dr_Willis> Some of the old-skool-fundamental knowledge of linux  - is a bit hard to get now a days. :) you got too many easy ways to do things.
[10:40] <FurryNemesis> Sajes, pity, I'd buy it
[10:40] <Sajes> :o what for, nemesis?
[10:40] <NT117> lol
[10:40] <FurryNemesis> Sajes, find other old kit and build a superfast DSL box with it
[10:40] <NT117> u can make a half-decent NAS box outa a PII
[10:41] <FurryNemesis> NAS?
[10:41] <NT117> Network Attached Storage lol
[10:41] <Gowrav> delta____: meanse download vmware from ???? and run it in windows and follow the instructions of vmware ....as easy as that or as mannual as linux !!!
[10:41] <bannerman> Is there a way to make bind9 resolve hostnames without the fully qualified domain name? ie "nslookup hostname" instead of "nslookup hostname.reallylongdomainname.com"
[10:41] <noor> DANM IT!!!
[10:41] <noor> lol
[10:41] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, works for me!!! :D
[10:41] <delta____> Gowrav: Sorry, no it doesn't get any easier than burning a cdrom
[10:41] <Sajes> :D I guess that would work. But I built my own core 2 duo computer.. accidentally fried the mobo somehow. So now I have to buy another motherboard.
[10:41] <Paddy_EIRE> GRRR
[10:41] <FurryNemesis> NT117, you mean like a backup box
[10:42] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, what did you do
[10:42] <mathaeous> Is there an alternative to Wine for Ubuntu?
[10:42] <NT117> sort of
[10:42] <Gowrav> delta____: then i'll preferwritting a CD ;)
[10:42] <Sajes> Cedega?
[10:42] <FurryNemesis> mathaeous, cedega, but you have to pay for it
[10:42] <gerro> anyone know how to install mesa driver on ubuntu or debian?
[10:42] <delta____> Gowrav: Heh, okay :)
[10:42] <dgjones> !cedgea | mathaeous
[10:42] <NT117> well, it could also hold some of my  huge xvid movie collection
[10:42] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cedgea - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:42] <FurryNemesis> gerro, should be there by default
[10:42] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, /usr/lib/evolution-webcal/evolution-webcal http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event/ical/all/all
[10:42] <leladia> is it possible to see other people within my network even though they have windows o/s?
[10:42] <NT117> u can download cedega illegally,  quite easily
[10:42] <gerro> FurryNemesis: not if you use the minimal install
[10:42] <dgjones> !cedega | mathaeous
[10:42] <Ubotu> mathaeous: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[10:42] <FurryNemesis> gerro, oops
[10:42] <stefg> NT117: but the cost of electricity for running it 24/7 over a year or so will sum up to more than a modern ARM based NAS costs to buy.... all 'save the planet' considerations put aside
[10:43] <nikolam> Hello, If somehow changed my fonts (monospace) and it looks now blend and lowsy (including this chat text) how should I make it look like before upon install?
[10:43] <FurryNemesis> in that case, sorry, I'm not sure - it's not in the repos?
[10:43] <ThePianoGuy> hi guys
[10:43] <delta____> leladia: Sure, open nautilus, press Ctrl+L, type smb://hostname/sharename
[10:43] <NT117> lol,  i live in an apartment,   i have a fixe bill for Electricity
[10:43] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild,  :(  'bash: /usr/lib/evolution-webcal/evolution-webcal: No such file or directory'
[10:43] <gerro> FurryNemesis: there a lot of mesa related stuff in the repos, its the requirement for any sort of 3d graphics I think but either way I want to install it
[10:43] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, sudo apt-get install evolution-webcal
[10:43] <ThePianoGuy> anyone succeeded in running macosx under ubuntu using vmware, qemu, virtualbox, bochs or any other emulators?
[10:43] <FurryNemesis> gerro, just a sec
[10:43] <daschl> what happened to tribe-6 ??
[10:44] <PriceChild> !gutsy | daschl
[10:44] <Ubotu> daschl: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[10:44] <Bajo> hi everyone, how do I play dvds in ubuntu?
[10:44] <PriceChild> !dvd | Bajo
[10:44] <Ubotu> Bajo: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[10:44] <Bajo> what do I need to install?
[10:44] <mathaeous> Is there a version of Wine taht works with ubuntu that  also works with libc6 2.6.1?
[10:44] <PriceChild> mathaeous, sudo apt-get install wine
[10:44] <Sajes> Unfortunately, I'm using an unsupported sound card (X-Fi Xtreme), so there'll be no Linux gaming for me, at least, untill they release drivers.
[10:44] <tseug> bajo,   okle works
[10:44] <Bajo> thanks
[10:44] <Sajes> genii, I thought coffee gave people headaches..
[10:45] <FurryNemesis> gerro, try http://www.mesa3d.org/
[10:45] <defrysk> Sajes, buy a generic cheap soundcard
[10:45] <tseug> bajo i think caffeine can play them too,  but it might be just a .avi .mpg .mp3.. etc player.. not sure
[10:45] <Myk_> caffine is actully perscribed to some people to cure headaches
[10:45] <tseug> bajo   kaffeine*
[10:45] <mathaeous> that has dependencies that conflict with my libc6 2.6.1 (requires 2.5)
[10:45] <pi3> Will Ubuntu detect other operating systems like Fedora after installing and add them automatically to menu.lst?
[10:45] <bruenig> pi3, no
[10:45] <defrysk> pi3, yes
[10:45] <gerro> FurryNemesis: Yeah I found that and was reading some but don't want to compile it from source should be in repository some where
[10:45] <pi3> :O
[10:45] <bruenig> defrysk, it used to not
[10:45] <mathaeous> is tehre a way to downgrade to 2.5 or is there a newer version of wine out there?
[10:45] <defrysk> bruenig, yes
[10:45] <Sajes> defrysk, I have 7.1 speakers. They'd be no good without 7.1 channels - and even then, a junk soundcard would do them no justice.
[10:45] <genii> Sajes: I normally have 10-12 coffee a day without ill effect.Today i have another headache unrelated to the coffee.
[10:45] <jacob_> I can't play dvd movies on the totem movie player.
[10:45] <bruenig> defrysk, it detects windows but not other *nixes
[10:45] <FurryNemesis> gerro, then sorry, I'm not sure
[10:46] <FurryNemesis> try the forums?
[10:46] <jrib> !dvd > jacob_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:46] <defrysk> bruenig, yes it does
[10:46] <Bajo> tseug, I can't find okle
[10:46] <bruenig> defrysk, how does it know where the find the kernel?
[10:46] <Paddy_EIRE> rathel, PriceChild GENIUS utter GENIOUS :D
[10:46] <Sajes> genii, That's a lot of coffee. I drink pop.. Don't like the taste of coffee.
[10:46] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[10:46] <Bajo> ah, someone just sent me a link, sorry :)
[10:46] <defrysk> bruenig, it just detects so shus ;)
[10:46] <gerro> FurryNemesis: know if their site has some deb packages?
[10:46] <yellowChicken> i have bittorrent installed as default, how to run it form command line?
[10:47] <joris_> Did somebody ever use alien here?
[10:47] <bruenig> defrysk, I could see it detecting debian, but other distros have different conventions as it concerns kernel images and whatnot
[10:47] <tseug> bajo  hmm try   ogle
[10:47] <defrysk> debian and ubuntu detect other distros by default
[10:47] <rathel> Paddy_EIRE, lol It wasn't me, It was on Lifehacker.com awhile back.
[10:47] <defrysk> fedora and mandrake do not
[10:47] <tseug> bajo (that's another version of okle,  but i prefer okle)
[10:47] <defrysk> bruenig, and trust me, i know
[10:47] <southernman1> tseug: it's not nice to ogle mother nature
[10:47] <genii> sajes: Yes, I am trying to cut down. Pop or carbonated things do not agree with me. I am awaiting my first shipment now of caffeine gum.
[10:48] <Zombie> Does anyone know how to use l2tpd under Ubuntu
[10:48] <stefg> !traffic | genii
[10:48] <Ubotu> genii: NOTICE - There is a lot of traffic in this channel at the moment. Please try to keep your sentences into a single message, avoid repeating the same question multiple times, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org for pasting, remember to mention the nickname of the person you're addressing, and join #ubuntu-offtopic for anything that is not Ubuntu support. Thank you for understanding!
[10:48] <gerro> yellowChicken: dunno I just use bit tornado with gui
[10:48] <pi3> defrysk, bruenig, I don't know what to do now
[10:48] <jrib> joris_: why?
[10:48] <tseug> southernman1,  :P
[10:48] <defrysk> pi3, ubuntu detect other distros
[10:48] <defrysk> and also windows
[10:48] <joris_> i just converted a rpm but it will not launch
[10:48] <bruenig> defrysk, seems unlikely to me, I've heard complaints before about it not detecting other unixes, but if you say it does
[10:48] <joris_> any idea why?
[10:48] <Sajes> genii, They aren't as strong as coffee. NoDoz pills are 200mg of Caffeine, and they're "as safe as a cup of coffee!". You can buy them at any store over the counter.
[10:48] <southernman1> tseug: lol
[10:48] <defrysk> bruenig, it does
[10:49] <defrysk> geez
[10:49] <mindframe-> what's a good openvpn client for linux?
[10:49] <defrysk> pi3, just make sure to install ubuntu last
[10:49] <bruenig> pi3, it doesn't matter anyways, all you would need to do is edit grub
[10:49] <pi3> defrysk, well great then, do you suggest me to first install Fedora 7 or Ubuntu 7.04?
[10:49] <Sajes> genii, Supposedly bad for your liver, though.
[10:49] <pi3> oktanouc, right
[10:49] <bruenig> defrysk, you said debian, that is not as reassuring because debian and ubuntu are the same thing
[10:49] <cap_gemo> 2 mindframe: networkmanager is a good openvpn client, they say, but I actually could never configure it correctly
[10:50] <stefg> Sajes:, genii  #ubuntu-offtopic is the perfect place for this chatter, but please don't add to the scrolling speed in here with offtopic stuff
[10:50] <defrysk> bruenig, i test many distros and ubuntu and debian always detect other distros
[10:50] <genii> sajes: I'm getting in trouble for offtopic in here when it's busy so I'm gonna be quiet now unless i'm giving support. :)
[10:50] <Sajes> Heh. My bad.
[10:50] <defrysk> debian simply rules
[10:50] <FurryNemesis> sorry, gerro  - keep on looking - but what so you need mesa for anyway?
[10:50] <gerro> defrysk: that is why ubuntu is debian based ;)
[10:51] <gerro> FurryNemesis: I have this really old ati card that uses mach64 driver however there is bug with the hardware that is security issue and best to use mesa
[10:51] <bruenig> defrysk, I would like to see that script because I just can't imagine how they know where the kernel is and what kernel line to provide period as far as arguments are concerned
[10:51] <defrysk> pi3, and afa Fedora is concerned , its hopelessly overcomplex with yum and slower the molasses in the ice age
[10:51] <defrysk> then*
[10:51] <gerro> FurryNemesis: I also need some mesa development files to compile the mach64 driver
[10:51] <FurryNemesis> gerro, woah
[10:51] <anachronoks> Hi, I was just wondering, is it possible to add entries into the keyring manually?
[10:51] <nanonyme> defrysk, you mean 'than'?
[10:51] <cap_gemo> hey, guys, is there yet anyway to use Beryl with ATI Radeon card?
[10:52] <anachronoks> I've been searching on Google for ages, haven't found anything.
[10:52] <defrysk> nanonyme, yes
[10:52] <bruenig> defrysk, I mean what happens if I rename /boot to /whatever, would it detect that?
[10:52] <FurryNemesis> well the dev files *are* in the repos, so you could just grab those
[10:52] <defrysk> nanonyme, tippically dutch typo
[10:52] <galaxy> now default my desktop gnome plz
[10:52] <galaxy> now default my desktop gnome plz
[10:52] <galaxy> now default my desktop gnome plz
[10:52] <delta____> bruenig: Easy as looking at the current lilo or grub conf :)
[10:52] <FurryNemesis> as to the rest......
[10:52] <gerro> FurryNemesis: I keep getting an error about missing kernel modules so I think I might need mesa fully installed :(
[10:52] <thedonvaughn> galaxy: ?
[10:52] <bruenig> delta____, but if I have two distros installed, I don't have two grubs installed
[10:52] <FurryNemesis> erk
[10:52] <defrysk> bruenig, it detect kernels or whatever on other partitions
[10:52] <Pc_Dark> am I not allowed to use music I bought on iTunes in ubuntu?
[10:53] <Pc_Dark> thats kinda mean :(
[10:53] <gerro> FurryNemesis: I got the driver from here dri.sourceforge..net
[10:53] <defrysk> bruenig, dont ask me how , it just does
[10:53] <thedonvaughn> Pc_Dark: just burn 'em to a CD then rip again in Ubuntu
[10:53] <delta____> bruenig: If you have two distros configured so that you can boot to either, your current grub/lilo installation is okay and can be used as a base for the new one
[10:53] <Pc_Dark> isnt that bad?
[10:53] <thedonvaughn> Pc_Dark: blame Apple.  Worse than M$ in my opinion
[10:53] <southernman1> Pc_Dark, your allowed iturnes is at blame
[10:53] <galaxy> no kdeesktop   default desktop gnome !
[10:53] <Myk_> cap_gemo Im a noob-I have a Radeon 7000 and have yet found out how to get the s-cid out going...any tips?
[10:53] <FurryNemesis> sourceforge is DOWN?
[10:53] <bruenig> delta____, how does it know where to find grub
[10:53] <thedonvaughn> Pc_Dark: why is that bad?  You bought the songs didn't you?
[10:54] <bruenig> delta____, the config that is
[10:54] <belgarath_> Anyone know how to renice Nautilius ???
[10:54] <Pc_Dark> yeah I bought them
[10:54] <mthed> thedonvaughn: There's something worse than M$, that's harsh.
[10:54] <adurity> Sf is down??
[10:54] <Pc_Dark> itunes store for $.99 each
[10:54] <defrysk> bruenig, ubuntu detected all 6 kernels installed on my debian partition
[10:54] <thedonvaughn> mthed: yup Apple, by far.

[10:54] <bruenig> defrysk, debian == ubuntu, no shit
[10:54] <delta____> bruenig: grub seems to know where to find it, so all one would have to do is find grub in the boot sector :)
[10:54] <FurryNemesis> or not, my bad
[10:54] <thedonvaughn> sorry, no more offtopic here.
[10:54] <bruenig> defrysk, but would it detect my arch kernel, it is not named the same
[10:54] <mthed> funny, i thought it was impossible :)
[10:54] <defrysk> bruenig, and also always detected mandriva, fedora and frugalware
[10:54] <scratchme> Hi all.  What is the recommended course of action if you slave a problem drive, and you are trying to recover some files off it.  When you mount using, "mount -t ext3 /dev/hdc3 /mnt/oldhd", you get this:  http://pastebin.ca/694535
[10:55] <thedonvaughn> scratchme: bad drive.  not too much u can do
[10:55] <thedonvaughn> scratchme: maybe try changing the cable
[10:55] <FurryNemesis> sorry gerro I'm as clueless as you - but you might try the debian repos too as a last resort
[10:56] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, I get this http://pastebin.com/d4bb24277 when I try to open an encrypted mail
[10:56] <dgjones> FurryNemesis, sourceforge seems ok to me - at least the front page has come up
[10:56] <bruenig> it would be interesting to test the script, based on my conception of how you would go about doing it, it would have to be buggy
[10:56] <defrysk> pi3, just make sure to back up your menu.lst of fedora just in case
[10:56] <delta____> scratchme: The very first thing to do would be pulling an image. If your drive is shutting down, you better hurry
[10:56] <cheeseboy> how do i reload locale without reboot?
[10:56] <FurryNemesis> yeah my bad
[10:56] <Jowi> scratchme, have you tried to fsck it?
[10:56] <FurryNemesis> .net.com is not a valid url ending :P
[10:56] <mthed> Do old adventure games work well in ubuntu using the dosbox?
[10:56] <Jowi> s///
[10:56] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, you've encrypted a mail, sent it to yourself and you can't unencrypt it?
[10:56] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, the mail in question is one I received from launchpad a while back to confirm my account
[10:56] <scratchme> delta____ I don't really need most of the drive, just a few files, if it's possible.
[10:56] <luite_> scratchme: if possible, try to copy the entire drive to an image first (using dd_rescue or something), if you can still read at least some of the sectors and you really need the data
[10:57] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, ah
[10:57] <scratchme> Jowi, just fsck /dev/hdc ?
[10:57] <gerro> FurryNemesis: comp I'm working on is running debian but I'm wondering if I would have same issue with minimal ubuntu install seeing as repositories sorta similar
[10:57] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, i'd do that on the cli myself
[10:57] <stefg> scratchme: looks bad... get smartmontools and look if this drive still has some signs of life. if yes you might use testdisk to see if it can read the partition table. then fsck and see waht you can recover
[10:57] <Jowi> !fsck | scratchme
[10:57] <Ubotu> scratchme: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[10:57] <luite_> Jowi: if your drive is faulty, do not use fsck, it may destroy more data
[10:57] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, I know my passphrase but as that message says its unavailable
[10:57] <FurryNemesis> gerro, no idea
[10:57] <scratchme> Can dd_rescue do an image of user data only?  The only other drive in the system is the same size.
[10:57] <southernman1> scratchme: you can use partimage to copy the drive...
[10:58] <gerro> scratchme: it also starts on boot after so many reboots
[10:58] <Jowi> luite_, that's news to me. gonna read up about it.
[10:58] <southernman1> scratchme: you can also use testdisk to recover data from a bad drive... good program IMO
[10:58] <kurumin> 123
[10:59] <stefg> scratchme: dd_rescue does a complete image, even of unused blocks, and ignores badblocks along the way. it doesn't know about 'user data'
[10:59] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, is it safe for me to paste the output of gpg --list-keys
[10:59] <thinkmassive> how can I stop xwindows without shutting down? so I have a command line?
[10:59] <Jowi> thinkmassive, "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[10:59] <southernman1> thinkmassive, CTRL + ALT + F!
[11:00] <southernman1> thinkmassive, CTRL + ALT + F1
[11:00] <scratchme> fsck gives this:  http://pastebin.ca/694543
[11:00] <scipio> thinkmassive, you have several "desktops": ctrl+alt+F1-6. ctrl+alt+f7 is X
[11:00] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, I think so
[11:00] <PriceChild> Paddy_EIRE, but no need
[11:00] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, oh
[11:00] <thinkmassive> Jowi: thanks
[11:00] <Bajo> I did all the steps required in order to play DVDs, but it keep not working... xine says "No demuxer found - stream format not recognized"
[11:00] <Jowi> thinkmassive, ...or you can do what southernman1 say, although it won't shut down Xorg, simpy give you a console.
[11:00] <thinkmassive> everyone else: I said stop, not switch to a console
[11:01] <thinkmassive> I'm trying to load a remote x session
[11:01] <stefg> scratchme: looks bad... time to look for the backups
[11:01] <southernman1> Jovi, thanks for the info
[11:01] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, I have to entries for myself and Im not sure which is the one that I remember the passphrase for
[11:01] <scratchme> stefg, you think the drive is kaputz?
[11:01] <Gringo_> read this: http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/09/12/1747202
[11:01] <Gringo_> ?
[11:01] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, an early botched attempt
[11:01] <Gringo_> this really is awesome news !
[11:01] <southernman1> thinkmassive, pardon me!
[11:02] <Paddy_EIRE> PriceChild, but I have a working one and I want evolution to use it how do I confirm which one to delete and which to keep :S
[11:02] <stefg> scratchme: yup... sudo apt-get smartmontools. this will let you read the SMART output of the drive. Probably it will just say: 'I'm already dead'
[11:02] <zippy>  anyone seen this error with starting kde  before "xmkmf/imake not found"
[11:03] <gerath> I just installed AVG Antivirus on my computer i saw the post on Linux.com witch read dalily it scanned about 7000 objects but came back with 4 Errors or folders that it could not check and yes i only scan form my user account on down. Anyone know anything about this suject..

[11:04] <southernman1> scratchme, http://www.sysresccd.org/Download has the tool "testdisk" that's been mentioned also
[11:04] <belgarath_> Anyone know how to store a renice of a process ?
[11:04] <Jowi> gerath, check which directories and what filepermissions and owner they have.
[11:04] <southernman1> scratchme, it's a really easy to use data recovery tool
[11:05] <gerath> ok thanks will do right now
[11:05] <noor> how do i upen respitories list again?
[11:05] <Jowi> gerath, "ls -l /home/gerath/foldername" will tell you if you don't use a graphical file manager.
[11:05] <jrib> belgarath_: what do you mean?
[11:05] <southernman1> noor: sudo nano /etc/apt/souces.list ?
[11:05] <scope006> anyone have any ideas on how to get a cd to mount?
[11:06] <noor> k thx
[11:06] <scope006> i've tried the forums and read a thread on a similar prob but no resolution yet
[11:06] <southernman1> scope006, does putting a cd in the tray not work?
[11:06] <Jowi> scope006, sudo mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom
[11:06] <scope006> yeah nothing mounts
[11:07] <centyx> scope006: can you eject it?
[11:07] <scope006> device does not exist when i try and do that
[11:07] <southernman1> scope006, you checked the cables (power and data) to the drive?

[11:07] <scope006> it's a dell laptop and i installed from that cdrom
[11:07] <scope006> works in windows

[11:07] <belgarath_> jrib   I want to make nautilus perform little faster.... made it perform very welll with renice -5 .... but how do I make this happen everytime I boot?
[11:08] <scope006> all my hd partitions are /dev/sda#, cdrom says it should be /dev/hda but doesn't mount/exist
[11:08] <scope006> first noticed it when i installed k3b and it said "no recorders or readers detected"
[11:08] <daedra> !boot
[11:08] <Ubotu> Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[11:09] <centyx> scope006: did eject work?
[11:09] <^neo^> hi
[11:09] <southernman1> scope066, try uninstalling k3b?
[11:09] <daedra> belgarath_: whack your command in /etc/rc.local before the line exit 0
[11:09] <scope006> eject: tried to use `/dev/hda' as device name but it is no block device
[11:09] <scope006> eject: unable to find or open device for: `cdrom'
[11:09] <^neo^> can someone help me
[11:09] <Gowrav> i have 3 dvds for debian packages .. can i use the packages on ubuntu or i have to get another package for ubuntu again..
[11:09] <^neo^> im kind of new in ubuntu and linux
[11:09] <^neo^> i managed to screwup my initial user account
[11:09] <belgarath_> thx deadra!!  :D
[11:10] <centyx> scope006: type dmesg|grep -i cd-rom
[11:10] <scope006> come to think of it today is the first day in a month i even popped a cd in this thing
[11:10] <^neo^> how to i remake the superuser initial account
[11:10] <centyx> well
[11:10] <PriceChild> ^neo^, what have you broken?
[11:10] <_eMaX_> hi
[11:10] <centyx> scope006: do dmesg|less then search for CD-ROM or CDROM
[11:10] <stefg> scope006: look at the output of the 'dmesg'-command in a terminal to get a clue which device name your drive has gotten
[11:10] <PriceChild> ^neo^, lets try and fix the problem rather than work around it
[11:10] <^neo^> my initial user account with high privs
[11:10] <_eMaX_> anyone here uses vmware w/ linux as host os?
[11:11] <^neo^> i tryed deleting it first and was trying to make it again because i couldnt startup the menu editor
[11:11] <scratchme> stefg btw, testdisk was able to mount the drive and read the structure.
[11:11] <scratchme> I just need it to mount normally so I can copy the files out.
[11:11] <centyx> scope006: if you've never used less, / is search and q is quit, space is go down
[11:11] <southernman1> scratchme, doesn't sound good
[11:12] <scope006> yeah not seeing anything in dmesg
[11:12] <scope006> gotta run ill mess with it tonight and report back
[11:12] <scope006> thnx =)
[11:12] <centyx> later
[11:12] <stefg> scratchme: good luck.... so get your stuff off the disk quickly. You could try a low level format afterwards to see if the drive is still useful for something
[11:12] <daedra> !renice
[11:12] <Ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about renice - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:12] <daedra> !info renice
[11:12] <Ubotu> Package renice does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[11:12] <^neo^> can anyone help me out?
[11:13] <^neo^> PriceChild:
[11:13] <PriceChild> ^neo^, I cannot help sorry.
[11:13] <Jowi> ^neo^, if by "recreate" you mean to create an account with sudo permissions?
[11:13] <^neo^> well when you install ubuntu
[11:13] <_eMaX_> anyone knows how to tune vmware running on linux? I've massive file i/o when running two vm's; one with 700 mb, one with 400 mb, the host system has 3gb of memory and should thus not be running into memory constraints
[11:13] <^neo^> you get a initial user account right
[11:13] <efbee> i'm using dd to backup a harddrive, will setting a block size cause problems? it seems to speed it up
[11:13] <^neo^> with higher privs
[11:13] <nbkr> ^neo^,  But with the Ubuntu live CD - you can use it to restore the user.
[11:14] <^neo^> how
[11:14] <^neo^> just put the cd in ?
[11:14] <^neo^> and the option pops up ?
[11:14] <Gowrav> i have 3 dvds for debian packages .. can i use the packages on ubuntu or i have to get another package for ubuntu again..
[11:14] <^neo^> okay gonna try it then
[11:14] <^neo^> thx
[11:14] <nbkr> ^neo^, No, unfortunately, its not that simple. But you can use the live cd, mount the root partition and restore the user.
[11:14] <Jowi> ^neo^, use the users admin tool, create a new user of type admin and add the groups you want ("admin" group is a must).
[11:14] <PriceChild> Gowrav, don't use debian packages/repositories on ubuntu
[11:14] <PriceChild> Gowrav, and vica verca
[11:15] <^neo^> oh
[11:15] <^neo^> thx jowi
[11:15] <^neo^> thats all ?
[11:15] <Zeke> Can anyone help me out with a wireless network card issue
[11:15] <^neo^> just make a user with admin group ?
[11:15] <stefg> efbee: why use dd ? that will take all unused blocks, only useful if you want to mount this image a s a loopfile later. i'd use partimage for a  compressed backup
[11:15] <Jowi> ^neo^, the first user you create during install is nothing special appart that it is a member of the "admin" group afaik
[11:15] <PriceChild> Jowi, if ^neo^ can do that, then he already has access to admin and needn't do it ;)
[11:15] <nbkr> ^neo^, You have to do this via a priviledged user that is already in the admin group.
[11:16] <assgrabber> hi
[11:16] <^neo^> okay thx
[11:16] <Jowi> PriceChild, that's what I am assuming :)
[11:16] <^neo^> cyas
[11:16] <assgrabber> ok i put a dvd in my computer
[11:16] <nikolam> Is there any GUI/frontend for making UDF CDRW disks? k3d dont have option for cd`s
[11:16] <southernman1> poor ^neo^
[11:16] <assgrabber> and it says cannot mount volume
[11:17] <assgrabber> invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume New
[11:17] <efbee> hadn't heard of partimage, will check that out
[11:17] <assgrabber> any ideas??
[11:17] <Jowi> assgrabber, is it empty?
[11:17] <assgrabber> no
[11:17] <nbkr> assgrabber, How did you try to mount the drive?
[11:17] <assgrabber> i just put it in
[11:17] <stefg> !info partimage | efbee
[11:17] <assgrabber> i didnt do anything
[11:17] <Ubotu> efbee: partimage: backup partitions into a compressed image file. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.4-17 (feisty), package size 268 kB, installed size 944 kB

[11:19] <nbkr> assgrabber, ubotu is a bot.
[11:19] <SpudDogg> are there any cool games for ubuntu that can be easily installed

[11:20] <SpudDogg> myth2?
[11:20] <SpudDogg> will try it
[11:20] <assgrabber> uh
[11:20] <assgrabber> it shoud be myth 2
[11:20] <assgrabber> sorry
[11:20] <assgrabber> space
[11:20] <Jowi> assgrabber, any other data DVD work?
[11:21] <stefg> Zeke: /You/ wasted a couple of keystrokes because you forgot sudo.... i waste enough time by hanging out in #ubuntu, so these 30 seconds don't hurt too much :-)

[11:24] <scratchme> I guess it helps to mount it as ext2 if it's an ext2 drive.

[11:24] <jskulski> any test utilities if anyone knows about

[11:38] <Stwange>  stefg - I have a DWL-520+ card (DLink airplus), on that link you botted to me, I found this link: # WifiDocs/Device/DWL-520vE1 - do you know if they are similar enough?
[11:38] <rafaelscj> PriceChild, okay, I will try it, thanks
[11:38] <gosha> ... There's no player that is as good as amaroK, is there?
[11:39] <MasterShrek> gosha, xine is my fav
[11:39] <gosha> I tried banshee ... But ... I have to research my music folder ... Banshee doesn't do that for me
[11:39] <MasterShrek> audacious for music...
[11:39] <Xero> gosha, I like MPD better than AmaroK because of its simplicity.
[11:39] <daedra> mpd with ncmpc frontend

[11:40] <Dustin___> Anyone know why I get a failure for the GUI when Ubuntu starts up?
[11:40] <Xero> Dustin___, be more specific.
[11:40] <Jowi> Dustin___, not without seeing an error code.
[11:40] <Xero> Dustin___, What does it say in the log?
[11:40] <gosha> MPD, eh?
[11:40] <Xero> gosha, yeah
[11:40] <stefg> Stwange: i don't know, but i'd just try.
[11:40] <bart_> hi, is there any documentation for getting ubuntu to detect lid closes on my dell inspiron 5100?

[11:40] <gosha> ... MPD= ?
[11:40] <Xero> Musicplayerdaemon
[11:40] <Stwange> Jowi, I've checked their support, and phone their technical support (who said we don't support Linux - despite his first question being what OS are you using, then giving my instructions for Windows for ten minutes), and I've checked the open source drivers, which are apparantly buggy. I was advised to just get another card, but I'd prefer to save the money :)
[11:40] <gosha> luls
[11:41] <daedra> Xero: how did you get your multimedia keyboard working?
[11:41] <rafaelscj> may I use a winmodem under vmware or qenu?
[11:41] <Dustin___> I'm using Wubi. The log would most likely be in that folder right?
[11:41] <daedra> I've got a volume tuner etc on mine
[11:41] <daedra> a dell
[11:41] <Xero> daedra, it 'just worked'. I used XBindKeys for the keys Ubuntu doesn't detect.
[11:41] <Ongaku> daedra lol awesome name
[11:41] <Xero> Mine's a Micro Innovations Elite.
[11:42] <Ongaku> I got a problem with installing a plugin into GAIM
[11:42] <Jowi> Stwange, you just had bad luck with the person you got. that info should be on dlinks homepage. let me have a look.
[11:42] <Xero> GAIM is discontinued. Pidgin, please.
[11:42] <gosha> What I want in my music player is library-researching and some kind of playlist/random playing from the library ...
[11:42] <Stwange> Jowi, thanks, I hate putting people out of their way
[11:42] <Ongaku> oh really?
[11:42] <fixeer> hi everyone, got a problem here. my load halts at NetworkManager, loading stage 5 of my eth0
[11:42] <Sajes> Can you use, say, Gnome-PPP on KDE?
[11:42] <Xero> gosha, mpd does that.
[11:42] <Ongaku> sorry, I just started using Ubuntu
[11:42] <Xero> Sajes, yes.
[11:43] <stefg> rafaelscj: that's plain useless... ususally the host does the actual network connection, and the guest uses it over a virtual router. and , fyi, pci devices are always owned by the host, the guest doesn't see it if the host doesn't
[11:43] <Ongaku> Is Pidgin the same thing as gaim?
[11:43] <Sajes> Oh- Good. No worries then :)
[11:43] <Sajes> Thank you.
[11:43] <Xero> Ongaku, Pidgin is Gaim 2.0
[11:43] <fixeer> my load halts at NetworkManager, loading stage 5 of my eth0. when i boot into recovery it works fine though, what could be wrong?
[11:43] <Ongaku> oh
[11:43] <Ongaku> I have that then
[11:43] <daedra> yep xbindkeys is what I want
[11:43] <Leonekl> hello folks
[11:43] <Dustin___> I checked my Wubi folder and there is no saved log of what I saw. IAll I understood was it was failing to initialize the GUI.
[11:43] <Ongaku> maybe I downloaded the wrong plugin
[11:44] <Zeke> How do I uninstall a driver that I have loaded in ndiswrapper
[11:44] <Leonekl> i got a quick question what kinda fonts are used to make the UBUNTU boot logos
[11:44] <Xero> Ongaku, it isn't version 2.0, it's "VERSION TWO POINT OH"
[11:44] <Sajes> I'm not sure what they were thinking when they made Pidgin... I think Gaim was better.
[11:44] <Leonekl> any ideas?
[11:44] <daedra> bee-arr-bee
[11:44] <PriceChild> Ongaku, gaim is supported here
[11:44] <Xero> Name change.
[11:44] <recruit8545> anyone know where i can get some xbmc scripts?
[11:44] <rafaelscj> stefg, even USB?
[11:44] <PriceChild> Xero, please don't suggest pidgin in here etc.
[11:44] <Ongaku> ah
[11:44] <gosha> :O
[11:44] <Xero> PriceChild, Gaim = pidgin...
[11:44] <PriceChild> Xero, nope it doesn't
[11:44] <rafaelscj> !pidgin
[11:44] <Ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[11:44] <Ongaku> it said that gtk-+2.0 was missing whilst i was doing ./configure
[11:45] <Xero> Told ya. New name for Gaim.
[11:45] <PriceChild> Xero, gaim is in the ubuntu repositories and is supported. Pidgin is a new gaim that isn't in ubuntu repositories yet and so isn't supported here.
[11:45] <recruit8545> xbmc scripts! anyone?
[11:45] <Xero> Ongaku, try installing some gtk stuff.
[11:45] <Ongaku> but it didn't say that the last time
[11:45] <Xero> Maybe 'apt-get install gnome-ppp'
[11:45] <Ongaku> before i had to get a dev pacakage i think
[11:45] <bruenig> Ongaku, you need to install a bunch of -dev files because ubuntu thinks its funny to separate headers
[11:45] <stefg> rafaelscj: try your luck, but i would be surprised if the virtualisation is so perfect that you can run a usb device driver over a virtualized usb port
[11:46] <thedonvaughn> bruenig: a debian thing technically.
[11:46] <Ongaku> oh
[11:46] <Ongaku> how would I do that then?
[11:46] <bruenig> thedonvaughn, either way
[11:46] <Zeke> When I run ndiswrapper -l its telling me that its the invalid driver for inffile
[11:46] <Xero> libgtk1.2-dev - Development files for the GIMP Toolkit
[11:46] <Xero> Install that.
[11:46] <bruenig> that looks like 1.2
[11:46] <Ongaku> how by apt-get?
[11:46] <bruenig> just a guess though
[11:46] <Xero> yea
[11:47] <Xero> *yes
[11:47] <Ongaku> okies

[11:47] <bruenig> I imagine it is that one ^
[11:47] <Xero> Install both to be safe, because gtk1.2 is legacy.
[11:47] <Ongaku> will that fix all that ./configure bs
[11:47] <bruenig> bloat
[11:47] <Xero> Ongaku, i think so.
[11:47] <Ongaku> ah cool, thanks
[11:47] <Xero> bruenig, he might need the 1.2 packages anyway.
[11:48] <Ongaku> I'm still learning to use this...just started a few days ago, so I only know apt-get install lol
[11:48] <bruenig> Xero, he should install everything in the repos, as he might need them

[11:48] <Xero> bruenig, ...
[11:48] <Xero> bruenig, you've verbally defeated me.
[11:48] <bruenig> Xero, your logic not mine
[11:49] <terrestre> this laptop connect to internet throw a pc, the pc is my gateway. but my ip is the same like the pc, i just cant get in the laptop throw ssh because my ip is the pc ip. and idea?
[11:49] <Xero> If he needs gtk, he should install gtk1.2 and gtk2.0, as some programs depend on 1.2
[11:49] <Ongaku> she
[11:49] <Xero> That's what I meant, but whatever.
[11:49] <Xero> Oh,
[11:49] <Xero> Ok.
[11:49] <Jowi> Stwange, dwl-520+ = TI, dwl-520 rev E = Prism3 SSF
[11:49] <Stwange> terrestre, is it actual a PC, or a router?
[11:49] <Xero> If she needs gtk, she should install 1.2 and 2.0, as some programs depend on 1.2
[11:49] <Ongaku> this that im installing installs gtk?
[11:49] <bruenig> Xero, programs at least none that I know of depend on both
[11:49] <Jowi> Stwange, TI = texas instruments
[11:49] <Stwange> Jowi, thanks, guessing that's not good news :)
[11:49] <VousDeux> Hello: I just got my new notebook and I have been trying to get the wifi adapter to work, but I'm getting nowhere. Is there something that makes this easy I may be overlooking?
[11:50] <bruenig> it would be odd to depend on different versions of the same library
[11:50] <rafaelscj> PriceChild, is gnucash  like "control of stock"?
[11:50] <terrestre> Stwange: its a pc, i have internet by usb modem
[11:50] <Xero> bruenig, whatever. you win.

[11:50] <Xero> wifi, imo, is annoying.
[11:50] <Stwange> terrestre, what you need is the equivalent of port forwarding, but I'm not sure how to advise you of that when it comes to using a PC instead of a router
[11:50] <thedonvaughn> bruenig: well some depend on 2.0 and some on 1.2
[11:51] <Xero> thedonvaughn, THANK YOU!!! That's exactly what i meant!
[11:51] <terrestre> i will search about it, thanks very much Stwange
[11:51] <bruenig> thedonvaughn, right but if you are compiling an application, it doesn't make sense to install both
[11:51] <bruenig> note "an"
[11:51] <Xero> bruenig, it does if you don't know what it depends on as in Ongaku's case.
[11:51] <thedonvaughn> bruenig: well sure, install the one you need.  he obviously doesn't sound like he knows. so both would suffice
[11:51] <the_cyber_guy> does ati crossfire works with linux
[11:51] <bruenig> Xero, he said the error was gtk+-2.0 I thought
[11:52] <Ongaku> yeah it was
[11:52] <Ongaku> said it was missing
[11:52] <Jowi> Stwange, found some more info. for the DWL-520+ you should use the ACX100 driver
[11:52] <thedonvaughn> was missing what?
[11:52] <Xero> Yep.
[11:52] <Ongaku> missing package gtk-+2.0
[11:52] <Xero> Missing gtk 2.0
[11:52] <andruk> what is the beryl settings manager called now?
[11:52] <printk> and you installed the dev ?
[11:52] <Xero> Okay. We've cleared this up. bruenig is the winner.
[11:52] <bruenig> there is no winner
[11:52] <Ongaku> the dev for gaim because it said missing before...then after that it said gtk was missing
[11:53] <Stwange> Jowi, I tried that under Fedora and it gave me the same problem I have now (I had to copy some firmware too), I guess I could give it a go under ubuntu (I think I tried it last time with ubuntu, but im not sure)
[11:53] <Ongaku> i'm gonna try this out right now..if it dont work ill tell ya
[11:54] <Jowi> Stwange, not that surprised. TI is usually not very keen on releasing specs for their chipsets.
[11:54] <andruk> what package do i install if i want to control beryl/compiz?
[11:54] <Stwange> terrestre, I think it's called tunneling in this case, try: http://www.rzg.mpg.de/networking/tunnelling.html
[11:54] <printk> andruk: well which one?  They are different
[11:55] <Ongaku> weird...now something else is missing
[11:55] <Stanley> #ubuntu-effects
[11:55] <Xero> Woo tribe 7 (dist upgrade)
[11:55] <printk> Ongaku: keep installing whatever is missing then :)
[11:55] <Jowi> andruk, beryl-manager for beryl at least if by control you mean change settings.
[11:55] <Ongaku> checking for libbonobo-2.0 >= 2.2... Package libbonobo-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libbonobo-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'libbonobo-2.0' found
[11:55] <Ongaku> configure: error: Library requirements (libbonobo-2.0 >= 2.2) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
[11:55] <Xero> Ongaku, apt-get install libbonobo-2.0
[11:55] <Xero> That one was obvious.
[11:55] <Ongaku> oh lol i didn't know it was that simple
[11:56] <Stanley> andruk: /join #ubuntu-effects
[11:56] <Xero> Ongaku, lol its ok
[11:56] <printk> Ongaku: "sudo aptitude search bonobo" install the require -dev.  We could be here all day installing your missing deps.  This is how you do it yourself

[11:57] <Xero> also, install mpc and gmpc

[12:00] <Xero> edit that and comment out the cd stuff.
[12:00] <tehrandom> Xero: i added a line to that
[12:00] <Xero> bonobo, not bono
[12:00] <tehrandom> ah... thank you
[12:00] <Xero> oh crap
[12:01] <Xero> my update is gonna reset gdm
[12:01] <Xero> bye for a minute
[12:01] <stefg> tehrandom: understand that the linux-source package is usually so out of date that it hurts. they are just meant to pretend installed sources to building device driver modules. if you really need to have the actual source of your kernel you need a git-pull as described in !kernel
[12:01] <gosha> See you, Xero
[12:01] <Asuka> !ipod
[12:01] <Ubotu> For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[12:01] <Ongaku> still cant find
[12:01] <tehrandom> !kernel
[12:01] <Ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild

[12:03] <stefg> !vmware
[12:03] <tehrandom> stefg: yeah, i always use that
[12:03] <Ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[12:03] <tehrandom> stefg: i'm more worried about open-iscsi
[12:03] <IrishDave> hey, is there anyone here who uses the opera web browser?
[12:03] <tehrandom> stefg: Gutsy has an open-iscsi package, but dapper doesnt
[12:04] <tehrandom> stefg: the readme for open iscsi talks about having /usr/src/linux/build available
