[12:04] <cerneula> webpirate: aaaah OK thank you for the explanation now I understand
[12:04] <seraph34> DavidWilh not that I'm aware of... just Ubuntu 7.04
[12:04] <seraph34> hjmills 7.04
[12:04] <hjmills> seraph34, ok, thanks
[12:05] <webpirate> Ubuntu comes with a program called KRDC for remote computer viewing like Pcanywhere or gotomypc
[12:05] <notv> seraph34 i installed the driver, im not sure why its giving me a black screen
[12:05] <jimmygoon> !dual
[12:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dual - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:05] <jimmygoon> !monitors
[12:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about monitors - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[12:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about multihead - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:05] <webpirate> but you have to have someone on the other computer to let you in
[12:06] <cerneula> webpirate: right, I'll have a look at that
[12:06] <seraph34> notv ouch... can't really help you there... the only thing I noticed is that your x1200 isn't explicitly named in the drivers list there
[12:06] <jimmygoon> I just bought a Sambsung SyncMaster 225BW, and i don't know how to use it WITH the screen on my laptop, what is this called?
[12:06] <notv> i give up

[12:06] <amidaniel> jimygoon: What's your problem?
[12:06] <DavidWilh> why won't beryl work? :(
[12:06] <cerneula> webpirate: does that work like openvnc
 You need to look into creating an XGL login....then beryl will work...
[12:07] <webpirate> I would just be happy with opengl and ati......
[12:07] <seraph34> also, does anyone know why my xorg.conf file is completely empty
[12:07] <DavidWilh> oh. how do i do THAT?
[12:07] <webpirate> have to look it up on google...I don't remember
[12:07] <webpirate> but I remember that XGL was the way to get ATI working with compiz or beryl
[12:07] <NMajik> I recently tried to install amarok, and the install went without a hitch. However, when I ran /usr/lib/amarok/Install-MP3 the installation failed. Not being overly concerned by this, I used synaptic to "Completely Remove" amarok. But, when I went into Rhythmbox (which I haven't had an issue with before) and tried to play a file it would freeze. I tried a complete removal of rhythmbox which stops when purging configuration files. I reinstalled R

[12:08] <snoopeh> Can anyone help me, Im trying to set up a "Sandisk 4gb Cruzer Micro" flash drive, onto linux & I will wish to use it for windows also. Here is the output of http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37354/ . I basically just need some help setting it up.
[12:08] <seraph34> Bothered: yeah... It doesn't say anything at all
[12:08] <WaltzingAlong> NMajik: sudo aptitude install amarok ubuntu-restricted-extras
[12:09] <Bothered> seraph34: Are you definitely looking at the right file?
[12:09] <snoopeh> Output of dmesg*
[12:09] <hjmills> seraph34, does the wireless appear as an interface in the list in ifconfig?
[12:09] <seraph34> Bothered: um... I would assume so
[12:09] <Bothered> seraph34: If you are, then your x server is bust
[12:10] <amidaniel> snoopeh: Are you just trying to mount it rw? What is it formatted as?
[12:10] <webpirate> I am going shopping for a while.....back in a while if anyone needs help webpirate@hotmail.com
[12:10] <NMajik> WaltzingAlong: That should fix my amarok problem then, thank you. Any idea what went funny with rhythmbox; did the restricted-extras get modified somehow?
[12:10] <hjmills> snoopeh, format it as FAT for use with both linux and windows
[12:10] <snoopeh> hjmills:  how would I go about doing that?
[12:10] <hjmills> snoopeh, do you have gparted installed?
[12:10] <snoopeh> yes
[12:11] <hjmills> snoopeh, ok, open gparted up
[12:11] <snoopeh> done

[12:12] <WaltzingAlong> NMajik: i do not know
[12:12] <Numz> I've tried installing the openssh server using sudo aptitude install openssh-server but It still asks for the CD. Im trying to install without the use of a CD?
[12:12] <hjmills> seraph34, yes - the ra0 is your drive
[12:12] <snoopeh> still only recognises hdb / hdc
[12:12] <seraph34> that's what I was thinking
[12:12] <hjmills> snoopeh, make sure you click refresh devices in gparted
[12:12] <snoopeh> done that hjmills
[12:12] <snoopeh> (nothing new )
[12:13] <hjmills> snoopeh, can you pastebin the output from dmesg | tail for me after plugging the drive in
[12:13] <snoopeh> rgr
[12:13] <NMajik> WaltzingAlong: OK, thanks anyway

[12:20] <Abedegno> apt-get install openssh
[12:20] <Parkin_131234234> yeah i have heard about kate before
[12:20] <hjmills> i think you may need a partition within that though
[12:20] <Parkin_131234234> how does one switch to kde?
[12:20] <Sebboh> A little birdy told me that someone in here was working on some iphone stuff..  Eh?  Definately off topic, so I won't bring it up again unless one of you does. :)
[12:20] <Numz> Abedegno When i do that is askes for the CD

[12:21] <Sebboh> amidaniel, but, without the kioslaves, what is kate good for? :)
[12:21] <usser> Parkin_131234234: u dont have to switch to kde just do apt-get install kate the problem is that it pulls half the kde libs with it

[12:24] <Wooksta> jrib / stdin, can fstab do like a username:users permisions?
[12:24] <amidaniel> rockets: Oh, that's all specified in your xorg.conf I believe
[12:24] <seraph34> hjmills sudo iwconfig ra0 etc... didn't return anything at all, including any errors

[12:25] <amidaniel> erm .. not xorg .. what's it called ...

[12:26] <swarm> every howto i find has dead links in it... :\
[12:26] <WaltzingAlong> swarm: of course; specific questions yield specific answers
[12:26] <rockets> swarm, better then bcm43xx_fwcutter

[12:27] <Combat_Sheep> hi there
[12:28] <swarm> BCM43XG seems popular. I could deal with it only working on G.
[12:28] <seraph34> hjmills this is what it said, fyi http://pastebin.com/d77914329
[12:28] <snoopeh> hmm hjmills : Unable to open /dev/sda
[12:28] <hjmills> snoopeh, hmm
[12:28] <Combat_Sheep> can some one give me advice on a syslog issue please ?
[12:28] <swarm> I got ndiswrapper installed fine, but it just never showed up in the network applet
[12:28] <hjmills> seraph34, that should be connected on the network if the network uses those ip addresses
[12:29] <xst> How can I cut the first N bytes away from a binary file?
[12:29] <hjmills> seraph34, do you have any other connection to the net?
[12:29] <swarm> do you use the automated installer, rockets ?
[12:29] <seraph34> hjmills, just borrowing someone's ethernet port right now
[12:30] <seraph34> hjmills, that's what I'm using to connect right now
[12:30] <amidaniel> rockets: Hmm ... can't find it
[12:30] <hjmills> seraph34, try unplugging the ethernet and using wireless - if you need to then you may have to redo the iwconfig and dhclient bits
[12:30] <seraph34> hjmills, k
[12:30] <hjmills> seraph34, wait
[12:31] <Combat_Sheep> I would like to know if putting the following in the syslog.conf will allow me to capture syslog data from a separate server
[12:31] <Combat_Sheep> <logging level> @server ip address ??
[12:31] <hjmills> seraph34, yeah - go for it - that ip you got on wireless matches the ip you have for eth0 so it should be good
[12:32] <hjmills> snoopeh, did you run fdisk with sudo?
[12:33] <hjmills> snoopeh, do u have a windows machine around btw?
[12:33] <rockets_> whoops got disconnected
[12:34] <snoopeh> hjmills:  yes
[12:34] <rockets> man im getting RSI
[12:34] <snoopeh> hjmills:  (yes to both of those)
[12:34] <Numz> How can i install ssh without the need of a CD?
[12:34] <hjmills> snoopeh, if you have a windows machine it may be easier to plug it in, right click it in my comp and select format.
[12:35] <Combat_Sheep> use apt
[12:35] <usser> Numz: from the internet
[12:35] <rockets> Numz, your problem is that you need to comment the cd-related lines in your sources.list
[12:35] <Combat_Sheep> sudo apt-cache search ssh
[12:35] <rockets> then it will install from the internet and not ask you for a cd
[12:35] <rockets> Combat_Sheep, nono
[12:35] <rockets> your missing the problem
[12:35] <agroker> I cannot find the menu " System -> Administration -> Disks" what am i missing in FF installation?
[12:35] <Combat_Sheep> it worked for me
[12:35] <Oni-Dracula> anyone know how I would edit xorg.conf to disable some buttons?
[12:35] <Numz> let me try rockets
[12:35] <macogw> agroker: there is no system > admin > disks...there hasnt been since Dapper, i dont think
[12:35] <rockets> Combat_Sheep, yes it shows up but he/she's problem is the apt-cd lines in sources.list
[12:36] <Combat_Sheep> or the application manager is better
[12:36] <rockets> or deb-cd or whatever it is
[12:36] <agroker> macogw, oic, I got this answer from ubotu
[12:36] <macogw> Oni-Dracula: to disable buttons?
[12:37] <Numz> It wont allow me to edit sources using  edit /etc/apt/source.lst i think i need to install a text editor?
[12:37] <rockets> Numz, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:37] <hjmills> Numz, or gedit if you prefer a gui text editor
[12:37] <rockets> ewww
[12:38] <Oni-Dracula> macogw, I use btnx for my mx revolution mouse button bindings, but X still sees the back/forward buttons as mouse3 and mouse2
[12:38] <hjmills> seraph34, is it working?
[12:38] <seraph34> hjmills it didn't work
[12:38] <Oni-Dracula> macogw, so every time I hit back, the middle mouse signal is sent to apps and such
[12:38] <rockets> Numz, once thats done, apt-get update; apt-get install openssh-server
[12:38] <rockets> with sudo that is
[12:38] <macogw> Oni-Dracula: oh.  there might be some kind of program for configuring mice
[12:38] <hjmills> seraph34, bummer - did you try redoing the iwconfig and dhclient bits after unplugging?
[12:38] <seraph34> hjmills, it said "Trying to Join" and never finished connecting
[12:39] <seraph34> hjmills, yeah, didn't do anything
[12:39] <Combat_Sheep> hey Rockets you got a minute ??
[12:39] <rockets> Combat_Sheep, sure
[12:39] <hjmills> seraph34, hmm, odd, can you pastebin the output of sudo iwlist scan?
[12:39] <Combat_Sheep> thanks
[12:39] <rockets> Combat_Sheep, whats up
[12:39] <seraph34> hjmills, sure... one sec
[12:39] <Combat_Sheep> I have a small problem in that I have three servers I want to stream syslog from
[12:40] <rockets> Combat_Sheep, hah ive never done that
[12:40] <Parkin_131234234> two things i need to be able to do with the editor: 1) search/replace for new lines(carriage returns) and tabs. 2) prompt me (i.e when i type <img .. it should bring up box with src, id, class etc) anyone know of a suitable one??
[12:40] <Combat_Sheep> I have a central syslog server but i need to know what to add to the syslog.conf to allow the streams
[12:40] <rockets> Combat_Sheep,  so i donnu if i can help you
[12:40] <Combat_Sheep> oh ok
[12:40] <Numz> rockets what exactly am i #ing out?
[12:40] <Combat_Sheep> no worries
[12:40] <rockets> Numz, see the first few lines that refer to cdroms?
[12:40] <rockets> Numz, those
[12:40] <Combat_Sheep> I'll web search some more
[12:41] <seraph34> hjmills, here you go http://pastebin.com/d28b2ee89
[12:41] <hjmills> Parkin_131234234, i think screem and bluefish do the latter, vim and emacs probably do the former and can be made to do the latter i would think
[12:41] <rockets> Combat_Sheep, syslog.conf has a man page
[12:41] <hjmills> seraph34, thanks
[12:41] <usser> Combat_Sheep: hm i'd use cron for that
[12:41] <[_Snarf_] > Alright, I'm trying to set up XDMCP, but for some reason, it's not letting me log in.. It will get as far as the password, the spits out the error "ReadFromRFBServer: rdr::EndOfStream" when I try to "vncviewer localhost:5800", which is the port it's listening on
[12:41] <usser> Combat_Sheep: like setup a dedicated server with a share and have the other two server write their syslog to that folder every minute
[12:41] <rockets> [_Snarf_] , i dont thing XDMCP uses VNC  . . .
[12:41] <walkover> Hey! i have kubuntu nicely set up on my mashine. But i wonder if there is an easy way to compile all the whole lot for my particular mashine. something like "apt-get everything i already have, compile, and install it" does anyone know?
[12:42] <Combat_Sheep> got it
[12:42] <rockets> walkover, you cant autocompile things . . . ubuntu provides precompiled packages. you want gentoo
[12:42] <[_Snarf_] > err, sorry, xinetd
[12:42] <Combat_Sheep> I found it
[12:42] <rockets> walkover, if you want to autocompile lots of stuff, use gentoo
[12:42] <Combat_Sheep> I was right earlier, I guess I just double doubted
[12:42] <usser> walkover: u dont want that
[12:42] <usser> walkover: really it'd take weeks
[12:42] <rockets> yeah
[12:42] <Numz> rockets i've #'ed it what do i do to save? ^O?
[12:43] <rockets> Numz, yes.
[12:43] <WaltzingAlong> walkover: any reason the interest in compiling everything?
[12:43] <Numz> rockets is ^O Shift+O?
[12:43] <walkover> no... just to see
[12:43] <rockets> control-O
[12:43] <rockets> thats oh, not zero
[12:43] <WaltzingAlong> walkover: just to see if there was a command to do it or see how long it takes or what?
[12:43] <rockets> ^ always means control
[12:43] <walkover> i guess both
[12:43] <Numz> rockets ok now to install ssh?
[12:43] <walkover> if it takes weeks it might not be that interesting ;D
[12:43] <eamagoo> i need some help im running ubuntu server from 2 years without any problems and now it crash
[12:43] <rockets> Numz, sudo apt-get update
[12:44] <WaltzingAlong> walkover: like suggested, you may give gentoo a try
[12:44] <rockets> Numz, then sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[12:44] <doug__> WaltzingAlong,  ok i got it where u said
[12:44] <eamagoo> please help me
[12:44] <walkover> have amd64 and i saw that the packages were also for intel64 systems and i thought that it might not be optimal
[12:44] <[_Snarf_] > and according to /var/log/syslog, Sep 13 18:44:14 localhost xinetd[6888] : warning: can't get client address: Transport endpoint is not connected
[12:44] <rockets> !ask | eamagoo
[12:44] <ubotu> eamagoo: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:45] <eamagoo> at least to identify the problem
[12:45] <amio> hi I am having troubles with installing ubuntu from cd. which I have burned from the web site with text installation, when it reachs to "select and install companents" it reacs to 6% then it says failed completing instalation. so what should I do?
[12:45] <rockets> amio, burn another cd, and then when you put it in, check cd for defects, then try again
[12:45] <WhatTheHell> ubuntu christian edition, lol? what's the point?
[12:45] <rockets> WhatTheHell, its for idiots, thats what.
[12:45] <WhatTheHell> will be there some ubuntu homossexual edition?
[12:46] <Numz> rockets gah have to make some cat5e quick -.-
[12:46] <bruenig> WhatTheHell, http://gaybuntu.com/
[12:46] <kishan> amigo, how much time u wait before u swiitch off the instalation when it was at 6
[12:46] <amio> well I can not burn another because I dont have a cd rw just I had to make it some where else
[12:46] <WhatTheHell> NO KIDDING, RIGHT?
[12:46] <eamagoo> rockets i dont know waht to tell you the server sometimes hangs and sometimes reboot
[12:46] <WhatTheHell> ROFLLLL!!!!
[12:46] <rockets> WhatTheHell, i prefer ubuntu satanic edition http://ubuntusatanic.org/news/
[12:46] <WhatTheHell> i did see it, but it's just a skin
[12:46] <amio> anyway to check if the cd works? the cd is clean and runs good without troubles even I installed ubuntu with it more than 10 times
[12:46] <WhatTheHell> seems to be mocking ubuntu christian ed.
[12:47] <rockets> eamagoo, check the log files . . .
[12:47] <WhatTheHell> amio there's something to check
[12:47] <gnomefreak> guys please move to #ubuntu-offtopic to continue with whe non-official ubuntu builds
[12:47] <WhatTheHell> do dmesg
[12:47] <kishan> amigo, did it give any error message
[12:47] <WhatTheHell> i tought it was official
[12:47] <WhatTheHell> sorry
[12:47] <eamagoo> rockets i do that and i found logout from courier the last action before ubuntu restart in syslog
[12:48] <amio> how to check it?
[12:48] <rockets> gnomefreak, are you serious . . .
[12:48] <WhatTheHell> dmesg
[12:48] <gnomefreak> rockets: very
[12:48] <bruenig> we don't support CE in here because it is bundled with automatix right?
[12:48] <rotman> Hi all.. Is it posible to get a login screen where you can mouse-select the users in Kubuntu? (like the default KDE login screen)
[12:48] <rockets> gnomefreak, are you an op?
[12:48] <gnomefreak> rockets: very
[12:49] <vader1102> rockets, yes
[12:49] <rockets> oh well.
[12:49] <amio> can some one answer me please
[12:49] <rockets> The problem with #ubuntu-offtopic is that its usually dead.
[12:49] <WhatTheHell> amio do dmesg
[12:49] <usser> amio: repeat the question
[12:49] <WhatTheHell> or sudo dmesg
[12:49] <amio> what does that mean? and how can I do this?
[12:49] <eamagoo> im very frustrated
[12:49] <WhatTheHell> on the console
[12:50] <eamagoo> i dont know where to look at
[12:50] <amio> but with the sh# "low level"?
[12:50] <eamagoo> is there any way to make syslog more detailed
[12:51] <zaius> anyone know a good 'tail -f' replacement that is a bit more user friendly?
[12:51] <WhatTheHell> amio yes, i think you have to be root
[12:51] <rockets> zaigon, the syslog gui?
[12:51] <amio> well how can I be a root and I dont have linux installed even?
[12:51] <rockets> amio, you can boot off a live cd
[12:51] <amio> I am sure the cd is good just two days ago I have installed the system but needed to format for some reason
[12:51] <waldo323> /etc/syslog.conf
[12:51] <hjmills> seraph34, ok, i think I have found something for you
[12:51] <neverblue> eamagoo, what are you looking for ?
[12:52] <amio> well I have only debian live cd can it make something?
[12:52] <eamagoo> neverblue some help
[12:52] <seraph34> hjmills, woot... what do you have?
[12:52] <neverblue> eamagoo, thats a bit too obvious, something more specific ?
[12:52] <asfasgs> how can i install mirc to ubuntu
[12:52] <rockets> Anybody gotten the latest ATI driver working/
[12:52] <neverblue> !wine | asfasgs
[12:52] <eamagoo> neverblue the server hangs or reboot but i cant find anything on syslog
[12:52] <ubotu> asfasgs: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[12:53] <eamagoo> neverblue is there some way to improve the syslog
[12:53] <neverblue> eamagoo, server ?
[12:53] <rockets> asfasgs, thats not really necessary . . .
[12:53] <gordonjcp> eamagoo: sure it's not timing out waiting for some DNS thing?
[12:53] <eamagoo> neverblue a ubuntu 6.10 server i386
[12:53] <hjmills> seraph34, ok, from a guide here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/RalinkRT2500#head-6bad7dc86ff779d44bc5a0832ea4660e9a277a07
[12:53] <neverblue> eamagoo, that is an OS, not a 'server'
[12:53] <lhot> hello, im wondering how to access another computers files on my wireless lan, im running ubuntu 7.04, the other comps are windows xp sp2
[12:53] <rockets> eamagoo, sudo flux-capacitor --fix
[12:54] <amio> ?
[12:54] <hjmills> seraph34, it looks like you need to blacklist a driver and use ndiswrapper - the instructions look next to useless however
[12:54] <neverblue> eamagoo, so your having issues booting your computer ?
[12:54] <seraph34> hjmills, right
[12:54] <lhot> if anyone can help, itd be greatly appreciated
[12:54] <rockets> lhot, Places -> Connect to server
[12:54] <eamagoo> neverblue i dont understand you what do you waht to know
[12:54] <rockets> lhot, then select windows share
[12:54] <lhot> mmhmm
[12:54] <neverblue> eamagoo, whats the issue your having, one line, lots of detail please
[12:54] <hjmills> seraph34, for a start can you apt-get install ndiswrapper wpa_supplicant
[12:55] <neverblue> lhot, you need to share the drives on the windows boxes
[12:55] <rockets> hjmills, you dont apt-get install ndiswrapper, its already there, you install the userland tools
[12:55] <lhot> k
[12:55] <rockets> ubuntu has ndiswrapper by default
[12:55] <neverblue> lhot, when they are shared, you can view Places->Network
[12:55] <eamagoo> neverblue i have a ubuntu server 6.10 running apache, php, mysql, postfix, courier, mysql, proftpd
[12:55] <amio> I wonder how to install programs which comes as tar.gz on ubuntu . they come as files needed to be extracted so how can I make them a program. "I am new to linux and dont know manythings"
[12:56] <eamagoo> neverblue resently start on hangs and rebooting i cant find the reason
[12:56] <seraph34> hjmills, E: Could not find package ndiswrapper
[12:56] <hjmills> seraph34, ok, ill look more into that
[12:56] <seraph34> hjmills, thanks
[12:56] <neverblue> eamagoo, the system (being the computer with Ubuntu Server installed on it) is not booting properly ?
[12:56] <eamagoo> i checked the hard drive and its ok
[12:56] <weezy> amio: often they need to be compiled before you can run them
[12:57] <amio> weezy what you mean by compiled? what should I do?
[12:57] <hjmills> seraph34, sudo apt-get install ndisgtk wpa_supplicant
[12:57] <eamagoo> neverblue nop the system boots fine, but sometimes hangs or reboot
[12:57] <neverblue> eamagoo, hangs, when ?
[12:57] <eamagoo> neverblue it could take a few hours o 15 seconds
[12:57] <amio> a simple example lets say the psi messenger when I extract it or even  see the file I see folder like bin and other things
[12:57] <weezy> amio: Most software for linux comes as open source, which means they give you the source code, and you're free to make changes to it before using it
[12:57] <seraph34> hjmills, same, couldn't find package wpa supplicant
[12:58] <amio> I know but how to stick them to the ubuntu so they become a program that I can run?
[12:58] <seraph34> hjmills, I did however manage to dl ndiswrapper through the add/remove programs
[12:58] <neverblue> eamagoo, by reboot, what do you mean  ?
[12:58] <eamagoo> neverblue that is my problem i cant find out why or what is the program that cause the problem
[12:58] <rockets> Hey anybody here run parallels on ubuntu?
[12:58] <amio> some times they come as an installation packages so automaticly will be installed just I click install
[12:58] <hjmills> seraph34, sudo apt-get install ndisgtk wpasupplicant
[12:58] <neverblue> eamagoo, when, meaning, when you login, when you run something, when, please be more specific
[12:58] <amio> some times I just type apt-get install something
[12:58] <weezy> amio: where did you get the tar.gz from?
[12:59] <amio> but how about these
[12:59] <amio> from the psi website for example
[12:59] <seraph34> hjmills, already the newest version
[12:59] <amio> when I tried to download messenger
[12:59] <g0ju> hi
[12:59] <weezy> amio: did you download the source?
[12:59] <eamagoo> neverblue ubuntu restart in syslog
[12:59] <neverblue> eamagoo, good luck
[12:59] <eamagoo> neverblue thanks
[12:59] <amio> well when I went to the page all what I found is that link to download
[12:59] <hjmills> seraph34, ok, good
[12:59] <amio> let me see it
[01:00] <hjmills> seraph34, do you know the wireless card (model and make)
[01:00] <neverblue> eamagoo, if you cannot reply to my questions, I cannot assist you, if its a language barrier, then please, what is your language of choice ?
[01:00] <Sebboh> where does termcap live?
[01:00] <seraph34> hjmills, 05:09.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2500 802.11g Cardbus/mini-PCI (rev 01)
[01:00] <eamagoo> spanish
[01:00] <weezy> amio: Are you familiar with aptitude?  You may wish to search there, which will automate the install before downloading off the web
[01:00] <neverblue> !es | eamagoo
[01:00] <ubotu> eamagoo: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:00] <eamagoo> neverblue sorry for that
[01:00] <bkhyp1> anyone recomend a media player type software for ubuntu
[01:01] <seraph34> hjmills, that's all I know about it
[01:01] <vader1102> bkhyp1, I use VLC
[01:01] <weezy> amio: As in, "sudo apt-get install psi"
[01:01] <eamagoo> neverblue i do that but nobody knows
[01:01] <dcroxton> Could I please get some help with a mic that stopped working?
[01:01] <hjmills> seraph34, any idea what model number is on the card?
[01:01] <neverblue> eamagoo, well, your not having much luck then, I suggest being patient
[01:01] <eamagoo> neverblue i will try for a new time
[01:01] <bkhyp1> anything besides, vlc ?
[01:01] <vader1102> dcroxton, if I was on Gutsy...... maybe lol
[01:01] <amio> I can not get right now
[01:02] <seraph34> hjmills, no, it's internal and I don't have the paperwork here with me
[01:02] <amio> but just some programs you find the download link for few linuxes then I choose ubuntu and I get this file which is .tar.gz
[01:02] <hjmills> seraph34, ah ok, what make and model is the laptop?
[01:02] <weezy> amio: can't get to apt-get repositories or the psi website?
[01:02] <olejorgenb> hm.. sudo apt-get install smbfs
[01:02] <dcroxton> vader1102, how would that help?
[01:02] <eamagoo> neverblue the system sometimes stop responding my pings and ssh conections so i start looking for a reason
[01:02] <olejorgenb> Package smbfs is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[01:02] <olejorgenb> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[01:02] <olejorgenb> is only available from another source
[01:02] <olejorgenb> E: Package smbfs has no installation candidate
[01:02] <vader1102> bkhyp1, ok, then maybe Mplayer
[01:02] <dcroxton> I have thought of waiting for the Gutsy upgrade, as it is likely to break or fix it. :)
[01:02] <amio> no well not the psi I was mistakken sorry
[01:02] <neverblue> eamagoo, check the RAM, there is a memtest on the Ubuntu CD
[01:02] <eamagoo> neverblue i do nano syslog and start looking
[01:03] <amio> just few programs like some cd burners
[01:03] <seraph34> hjmills, MSI MegaBook L715
[01:03] <amio> or even anyothers
[01:03] <hjmills> thanks
[01:03] <amio> they come as extractable files
[01:03] <asfasgs> how can i connect irc on ubuntu? please tell me the quickest way
[01:03] <vader1102> dcroxton, I dont know if they have changed things in Gutsy for it or not
[01:03] <neverblue> olejorgenb, use pastebin next time please :)
[01:03] <hjmills> asfasgs, install xchat and open it
[01:03] <WaltzingAlong> bkhyp1: vlc mplayer xine
[01:03] <kishan> you should have .deb to install in ubuntu amigo
[01:03] <eamagoo> neverblue well that is a big problem for me, i need to do everithing remotelly
[01:04] <weezy> amio: generally the tar.gz files are zipped source code.  You can extract them using a gui, or typing tar -xvf whatever.tar.gz
[01:04] <neverblue> eamagoo, hardware issues cannot be handled remotely, sorry
[01:04] <olejorgenb> neverblue: ah, ok. I thought this was just under the reasonable limit
[01:04] <eamagoo> neverblue my answer how can i do to make syslog or other logs more detailed
[01:04] <neverblue> eamagoo, you cannot
[01:04] <damian> Hi guys,how are you?

[01:06] <dcroxton> \quit
[01:06] <neverblue> damian, from which machine ?
[01:06] <olejorgenb> damian: you have used "Shared folders"?
[01:07] <damian> neverblue: The ubuntu machines don't see each other
[01:07] <neverblue> !nfs | damian
[01:07] <ubotu> damian: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[01:07] <damian> ole: I will have to check that
[01:08] <damian> Ok, ubotu, thanks

[01:10] <weezy> Netham: ubuntu should take care of adding vista to grub, but it's easy to add after the fact, if it doesn't
[01:10] <LadyNikon> i even tried to add a colortheme..
[01:11] <seraph34> hjmills, cool, thanks
[01:11] <LadyNikon> and no dice

[01:12] <lhot> :(
[01:12] <NMajik> WaltzingAlong: However, rhythmbox is still freezing when it tries to open a file and amarok freezes when I open it
[01:12] <neverblue> lhot, in where, using what?
[01:12] <lhot> in ubuntu 7.04 using connect to server
[01:12] <seraph34> http://pastebin.com/d6b3ea2d hjmills
[01:13] <neverblue> lhot, what are you trying to do, please explain your situation a bit more
[01:13] <amio> weezy can I ask something?
[01:13] <weezy> amio: Sure
[01:13] <amio> which should be more big? the swap? or the ext3?
[01:13] <weezy> amio: ext3
[01:13] <lhot> i just want to get some files off my friends comp, and he lacks a cd burner, and i forgot my usb key
[01:13] <amio> and what is recommended for swap to be? 512 mb?
[01:13] <hjmills> amio, ext3
[01:14] <WaltzingAlong> NMajik: open either through the virtual terminal, see about any error messages
[01:14] <neverblue> lhot its a windows computer ?
[01:14] <hjmills> amio, 2xRAM but not more than 2 gb
[01:14] <WaltzingAlong> NMajik: maybe something has locked the /dev/dsp device?
[01:14] <weezy> amio: swap is your virtual memory.  You generally make it twice as large as your ram
[01:14] <lhot> yeah
[01:14] <epiclulz> what's a good site for getting games to work on ubuntu?
[01:14] <lhot> xp sp2
[01:14] <amio> how about lvm? what is it?
[01:14] <NMajik> WaltzingAlong: How would I do that?
[01:14] <neverblue> lhot and the drive on the windows computer is shared ?
[01:14] <anathematic> how can i find out which time of the day cron sets it's daily back ups?
[01:14] <WaltzingAlong> NMajik: start xterm or konsole; type amarok &           then watch for errors
[01:14] <lhot> umm ???
[01:15] <tlk> how do i make beryl start at startup (i tried the sessions mangaer)
[01:15] <amio> because when I installed from cd then made it giuded partition with lvm it made ext3 225 mb and swap was the rest of memory many gb's
[01:15] <lhot> how would i check?
[01:15] <neverblue> lhot, you have to 'share' the windows folders, before you can 'view' it in ubuntu
[01:15] <lhot> okay
[01:15] <neverblue> lhot, im sure a windows room could assist you with that
[01:15] <weezy> amio: what are you using lvm for?  are you partitioning or raiding strangely?
[01:16] <neverblue> possibly try #windows

[01:23] <amio> I have auto boot cd
[01:23] <weezy> amio: if this is the only operating system going on your machine, make sure you pay careful attention when partitioning that you use the entire drive, and reformat the entire harddrive
[01:23] <amio> with text installation
[01:23] <amio> not live then install
[01:23] <torahteen> Ok, sorry... was having trouble before for some reason... what's the package for gcc, ld, and all that fun stuff again?

[01:31] <Numz> weezy I wanted to know what to use for DNS servers
[01:31] <SlackBob> My question is what could be causing a connect to host <CENSORED> port 22: Connection refused when using ssh. I have port forwarding on, my ip shows 22 as open from external tests and i can ssh to my localhost
[01:31] <weezy> Numz: You set DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf

[01:32] <ulver> overclucker:it say say that i have 2 unsupported applications....what i can do?
[01:32] <hjmills> seraph34, now try rmmod again as root
[01:32] <stefg> SlackBob: you have openssh-server installed, havn't you?
[01:32] <dpml> I'm looking for the best way to read man documentation - is there something better than the 'man' console command ?
[01:32] <seraph34> hjmills, I did, same result
[01:32] <SlackBob> stefg: I do and can ssh into it from my intranet
[01:33] <overclucker> ulver, that depends on what they are
[01:33] <Floating> Anyone who installed the new ati drivers??? when i try i get a dh_testdir: Command not found
[01:33] <hjmills> seraph34, ok, i think you will have to reboot to get rid of that module you just blacklisted
[01:33] <seraph34> hjmills, ok, brb
[01:33] <hjmills> seraph34, unless you can toggle the wireless off at the hardware level with a switch on the lappy possibly
[01:33] <overclucker> ulver, and 'what' says u ahve 2 unsupported apps?
[01:34] <rockets> Anybody here know any tests I can do from within linux to see if there's anything wrong with my video card?
[01:34] <astro76> SlackBob, you can't ssh to the external IP from the internal network, your router does not allow  it
[01:34] <sukki> hey guys
[01:34] <dpml> rockets: what sort of video card is it?
[01:34] <sukki> im trying to either extract or mount a bin
[01:34] <sukki> or do something with it
[01:34] <sukki> how
[01:34] <rockets> dpml, ATI Xpress 1150
[01:34] <weezy> anyone know why I wouldn't be recieving PMs / Queries
[01:34] <rockets> laptop card
[01:35] <sukki> i was looking into bchunk to convert it to an iso but it needs a .cue file for that
[01:35] <dpml> rockets: sorry, can't help you with that one but other may be able to
[01:35] <sukki> so how can i work with a .bin file by itself
[01:35] <dunnthetown> I need help with wireless
[01:36] <NMajik> I'm running into issues with amarok on startup, namely it freezes. Does http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37370/ mean anything to anyone?
[01:36] <ulver> overclucker:that i don't have support and updates
[01:36] <dpml> rockets: have you installed the SysInfo tool? I found that v/helpful when sorting out video issues
[01:36] <nickrud> sukki: just what is it you want to do with this bin, and what is it?
[01:36] <reportingsjr> How long should it take to partition 36gb on an 80gb hd?
[01:36] <bslote> When I connect to a server through places > connect to server in gnome, where is it actually mounting the share?
[01:36] <rockets> dpml, nope ill check it out thanks
[01:36] <SlackBob> astro76: oh? ill look into that
[01:37] <astro76> SlackBob, your ssh server appears to be running fine though
[01:37] <dunnthetown> Can Ubuntu run on an Inspiron 2200?
[01:37] <dpml> rockets: just go to Add/Remove apps - seach for sysinfo and take it from there
[01:37] <SlackBob> astro76: huh?
[01:37] <vbabiy> hey whats the best way to upgrade java 6.2
[01:37] <nickrud> sukki: a bin is a file that's meant to be executed, usually to install some software
[01:37] <astro76> SlackBob, your IP is not hidden unless you get a hostmask from freenode, FYI
[01:38] <xazo> hello
[01:38] <Floating> Anyone who installed the new ati drivers??? when i try i get a dh_testdir: Command not found
[01:38] <astro76> SlackBob, it's generally good not to run on 22 externally, actually
[01:38] <xazo> how could a person take a linux ISO (500MB) and place it on USB Thumb Flash drive & make usb flash drive bootable so you can install linux from flash drive?
[01:38] <weezy> sukki: a .cue file is a descriptor for a .bin file.  You'll likely need both
[01:38] <SlackBob> ... I never even tought of that
[01:38] <reportingsjr> How long should it take to partition 36gb from an 80gb hard drives?
[01:38] <stefg> sukki: http://lj4newbies.blogspot.com/2007/06/mount-iso-cuebin-nrg-img-mdf-files-in.html
[01:38] <SlackBob> is 22 too common?
[01:38] <Sajes> In Ubuntu, how do I rip a music cd to .au (or whatever the Linux audio file standard is)?
[01:38] <SlackBob> to bots at least?
[01:38] <astro76> SlackBob, there will be hundreds of automated attempts daily
[01:38] <reportingsjr> Its been going for 10 minutes now, I'm wondering if this is an issue with the computer or boot disk
[01:38] <seraph34> hjmills, I'm back
[01:38] <overclucker> ulver, so you are trying to update, and it it tells you error, malformed ... on line 43 of sources.list?
[01:39] <reportingsjr> So, no one will help me? At all?
[01:39] <seraph34> hjmills, and it already tells me the module is in use
[01:39] <vbabiy> hey whats the best way to upgrade java 6.2
[01:39] <astro76> SlackBob, there's software you can install to automatically add IPs that try to connect more than a number of times to a banlist, too
[01:39] <weezy> sajes: I just use mp3 :)
[01:39] <ulver> overclucker:yes...and the list cannot be read
[01:39] <Numz> weezy how do i restart networking agani?
[01:39] <Sajes> weezy, That didn't answer my question.
[01:39] <dunnthetown> How can I get my wireless running?
[01:39] <nickrud> vbabiy: the best way would be to get the java-package from either gutsy or debian and turn the bin from java into a deb, and install it that way
[01:39] <SlackBob> facinating
[01:39] <SlackBob> thanks astro76
[01:39] <weezy> Numz: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

[01:40] <reportingsjr> Hello? Anyone here?
[01:40] <Numz> hmmmm, thats what i though weezy, it says no such command
[01:40] <nickrud> vbabiy: working on one
[01:40] <weezy> Numz: errr..you're in ubuntu right?
[01:40] <seraph34> hjmills, didn't type blacklist before the entry... gonna reboot again... brb
[01:40] <vbabiy> nickrud: how far alone are you
[01:40] <_2> is there some kind of command i can have init issue to flush eth0 before power off so i can also use wakeonlan to power back on ?
[01:41] <ulver> i don'y know and i don't know how to see it....
[01:41] <Numz> weezy yes
[01:41] <nickrud> vbabiy: just to the grid of which ubuntu version provides what java-package, and the most recent java supported by each
[01:41] <reportingsjr> .....
[01:41] <weezy> Numz: ls the contents of /etc/init.d and make sure "networking" is in there...it may just have lost it's +x
[01:41] <overclucker> ulver, gedit '/etc/apt/sources.list' and go down to line 43
[01:41] <DarkED> what is that little app for desktop-effects that runs in the tray and will let you configure it?
[01:42] <vbabiy> nickrud: do you know of any other ones out there
[01:42] <rockets> dpml, i dont see sysinfo . ..
[01:42] <Numz> weezy says there is no such directory or file when i sudo ls /ect/init.d/networking
[01:42] <dunnthetown> This is what happened when I tried those things: E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[01:42] <dunnthetown> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[01:42] <ulver> overclucker:the line 43 shows this:deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/feisty main
[01:42] <nickrud> vbabiy: there are probably a lot . java-package has been around for a while.
[01:43] <_2>    anyone ?      linux is leaving code in the nic or ram that prevents wakeonlan from powering up the box.    anyonw know anything about this ?
[01:43] <weezy> Numz: make sure you're spelling etc, not ect
[01:43] <dpml> rockets: just go to the Applications menus, select Add/Remove Application - search for sysinfo - it should appear
[01:43] <nickrud> dunnthetown: you have one of synaptic, update-manager, aptitude, adept open
[01:43] <rockets> dpml, i didthat . . .
[01:43] <overclucker> ulver, did u add anything to your sources.list?
[01:43] <dunnthetown> So what do I do?
[01:43] <nickrud> dunnthetown: or, you didn't use sudo :)
[01:43] <dpml> rockets: it didnt appear in the search?
[01:43] <dunnthetown> How do you use sudo?
[01:43] <rockets> dpml, no obviously
[01:44] <Numz> weezy: Yea, lol, that got it sorry
[01:44] <dpml> rockets: umm
[01:44] <_2> !sudo | dunnthetown
[01:44] <ubotu> dunnthetown: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:44] <ulver> overclucker:i think .....beryl
[01:44] <hjmills> how do I get the live cd to boot with the vesa driver?/
[01:44] <nickrud> dunnthetown:   sudo <command ....   just put that word in front of anything you want to do as administrator
[01:44] <seraph34> hjmills, now it says the module doesn't exist in /proc/modules
[01:44] <weezy> Numz: ha, great.  I was scared for you for a second
[01:44] <anathematic> !cron | anathematic
[01:44] <overclucker> ulver, try removing it,line 43 i mean
[01:44] <stefg> hjmills: choose 'safe graphics mode' in the boot menu
[01:44] <overclucker> then try updateing
[01:45] <hjmills> seraph34, as an error on boot?
[01:45] <Numz> weezy thanks a ton got it all working now just to get my rocketraid drivers installed :D
[01:45] <ulver> overclucker:i will try it
[01:45] <_2> no clue ?   no one ?
[01:45] <hjmills> stefg, i dont have a menu - i am booting from another partition on the drive as my cd drive isnt too reliable
[01:45] <weezy> Numz: Great to hear!
[01:45] <nickrud> _2: that something you might find in bugs.launchpad.net . Not very common probably
[01:45] <seraph34> hjmills, no, when I tried sudo rmmod rt2500
[01:45] <dpml> rockets: what happens when you search in Synaptic Package Manager?
[01:46] <hjmills> seraph34, thats fine - it wont have loaded so it doesnt need removing
[01:46] <rockets> found it with apt-cache search
[01:46] <hjmills> seraph34, if you now run sudo ndisgtk
[01:46] <_2> nickrud k
[01:46] <stefg> hjmills: the you have to inspect the syslinux config file what the parameters are for that
[01:46] <tretle> could someone help me with grub
[01:46] <nickrud> _2: or maybe something's on the forums
[01:46] <hjmills> stefg, what can i add to the kernel line in grub?
[01:46] <Shishire> X11 keeps telling me that it can't detect any screens, and refuses to load whenever i start the computer up.  Anyone know what I can do?
[01:46] <orionr> tretle | ask!
[01:46] <hjmills> stefg, ok, thanks
[01:46] <overclucker> ulver, i just checked, and beryl repo moved to http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/dists/feisty/
[01:47] <orionr> !ask
[01:47] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:47] <hjmills> Shishire, have you recently added any drivers?
[01:47] <tretle> i had vista installed on a different partition on the hardrive and it came up in the menu in grub before
[01:47] <rockets> wow sysinfo is great
[01:47] <_2> nickrud doesn't look like very many use wakeonlan/etherwake
[01:47] <tretle> but grup doesnt come up on startup anymore
[01:47] <Numz> weezy if you checkout http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA/bios_rr1740.htm do you think the RAID Management Utility will work in CLI or will i need to install a GUI?
[01:47] <Shishire> not on this install
[01:47] <hjmills> seraph34, now you can use that to add drivers and point it to the inf file in the stuff you extracted that I gave you
[01:47] <seraph34> hjmills, which file do I install?
[01:47] <Floating> gah
[01:47] <hjmills> seraph34, the inf from the archive you downloaded
[01:47] <rockets> dpml, hahai t shows no info under graphics card
[01:47] <overclucker> ulver, so try putting this on line 43 http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/dists/feisty/ main
[01:47] <tretle> and in the startup configurator when choosing the default os vista isnt there
[01:47] <Numz> weezy nevermind theres a CLI download =\
[01:47] <WaltzingAlong> !answer
[01:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about answer - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:47] <reportingsjr> Should I download ubuntu again if the install wont work?
[01:47] <hjmills> Shishire, what graphics card?
[01:48] <Shishire> intel integrated 845G
[01:48] <nickrud> _2: maybe you should file a bug, it might not get addressed right away (release crunch)
[01:48] <weezy> Numz: Yep, looks that way
[01:48] <reportingsjr> Should I download ubuntu again if the install wont work?
[01:48] <Numz> Can someone check out "http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA/bios_rr1740.htm" and tell me which driver i should download?
[01:48] <seraph34> hjmills, I pointed, It says "Hardware present: no"
[01:48] <Numz> What linux Red Hat?
[01:48] <_2> nickrud yeah.
[01:49] <hjmills> seraph34, darn, must be one of the other drivers - i thought that was it out of a 30/40 meg download - ill send some more over
[01:49] <nickrud> but it's interesting enough someone might pick it up :)
[01:49] <tretle> I was thinking it might have something to do with ntfs3g?
[01:49] <stefg> reportingsjr: the CD has a self test item in the boot menu, and you can even test the downloaded file with a md5sum
[01:49] <reportingsjr> Should I download ubuntu again if the install wont work?
[01:49] <seraph34> hjmills lol, ok

[01:49] <_2> there is nothing on launchpad about etherwake or wakeonlan
[01:49] <reportingsjr> stefg: I tried that, and it just started ubuntu up, and did nothing..
[01:49] <weezy> Numz: You'd probably be better off downloading the open source driver, and compiling it as a kernel module

[01:50] <mpav65> d
[01:50] <kman_> join #kurumin
[01:51] <reportingsjr> stefg: So, should I just download ubuntu?
[01:51] <stefg> reportingsjr: if even the selftest failed you can try to d/l again. but it could as well be a hardware problem
[01:51] <hjmills> seraph34, try all the inf files from there first - i have more if needed
[01:51] <Augustus_Kolya> Numz: I used to use Red Hat, then Mandrake, now Ubuntu

[02:02] <hjmills> Seraph, from the command line can you run sudo ndiswrapper -l
[02:02] <stefg> reportingsjr: actually that factoid is outdated.... bottom line: most filemanagers in ubuntu can be ftp-clients, but for a server you need to set something up
[02:02] <tank> anyone?
[02:02] <hjmills> Seraph, that will give you a list of the drivers you have installed
[02:02] <hjmills> Seraph, you can remove one with sudo ndiswrapper -r <driver name>

[04:05] (Netslayer/#ubuntu) anyone know where mdadm is called during boot?
[04:05] (gustavo/#ubuntu) Ferreto
[04:05] (threethirty/#ubuntu) whats going wrong beeew
[04:05] (bulmer/#ubuntu) beeew: cant the .deb package be de-installed?
[04:05] (Bjornalf/#ubuntu) beeew: what did you install and what's not working?
[04:05] (beeew/#ubuntu) i tried installing a new version of the new web server, nginx

[04:06] <amr> when i try to share a file i get this message 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: usershares are currently disabled
[04:06] <Netslayer> does a mount command on a raid device call mdadm to assemble and start an array?
[04:06] <pointone> Something wrong with apt-cache search? :O
[04:06] <gustavo> Ferreto: dosfstools
[04:06] <bulmer> beeew: how did you install it?
[04:07] <beeew> i used a .deb package and did what the blog said 'dpkg -i filename'
[04:07] <beeew> i know, dumb, dumb.. i'm a newb
[04:07] <bulmer> thats okay, you can de-install too
[04:07] <bruenig> beeew, I knew it would happen eventually, people start doing the windows and getting debs from getdeb and other places instead of a centralized repository maintained by the distro itself

[04:22] <N0Lif3> I use rtorrent as my bittorrent client. One feature that it lacks is the ability to grab torrents from rss feeds. I've read up on it, and I realize that I can use an rss reader to grab the torrents and download them to a folder that'll automatically start the torrent in rtorrent. The thing is though, I want to keep these operations within the terminal. Are there any terminal based rss readers that can do all this for me?

[04:22] <doug__> where do i go to get the .deb file for pidgin?
[04:22] <Stanley> Does the same codename for Ubuntu apply for the server dist? (Feisty Fawn)
[04:22] <jrib> vas: there is no such package in feisty.  You probably want -generic
[04:22] <doug__> !pidgin | doug__
[04:22] <kyled185> Stanley, yes
[04:23] <jepp> does anybody know how to connecto to a VPN (PPTP)??
[04:23] <Bjornalf> doug__: try www.pidgin.im
[04:23] <skel> jepp: I think freeswan / openswan can do that for you
[04:23] <DEA> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[04:23] <nickrud> beeew: do the same for /var/lib/dpkg/info/nginx.postinst
[04:23] <jrib> DEA: hello
[04:23] <gib> Does anyone know if there are issues with encryption using the 64-bit version of Firefox?  I just installed Kubuntu 64-bit on my uncle's new system and it won't work with his bank.  It works fine on his 32-bit Kubuntu system.
[04:23] <kanuha> what tribe version is gusty up to now?
[04:24] <nickrud> still at 5
[04:24] <jepp> skel, I tried with network-manager >> "VPN-Connection failed"
[04:24] <kanuha> nickrud, thx
[04:24] <Pici> !tribe6 | kanuha
[04:24] <ubotu> kanuha: Gutsy Gibbon (7.10) Tribe 6 is not a formal release, but rather a bugfixing milestone.  Please see http://tinyurl.com/3ytk9g for more information.
[04:24] <emoe> jepp:  I have also gottn connected usin network-manager
[04:24] <beeew> k
[04:24] <skel> jepp: turn on debug level logging and such.. see where its failing? key exchange or whatever
[04:24] <nickrud> so, I guess we're about at 5.45
[04:24] <kanuha> lol
[04:25] <mkrufky> hello, folks...  i used gparted from the feisty install disk to resize my NTFS partition, and immediately after resizing the disk, it auto-mounted, which prevented 3 more operations from executing.....   now i can neither boot ubuntu NOR windows...   is there any way to fix this?  i highly doubt there exists any fsck.ntfs  :'(
[04:25] <mkrufky> making matters worse -- this is a BRAND NEW dell laptop, i didnt even have a chance to play with it yet
[04:25] <mkrufky> and system restore wont run either :-(
[04:25] <gib> Anyone here running 64-bit and using Firefox?
[04:25] <mkrufky> gib: works fine for me
[04:25] <nickrud> mkrufky: I hope they gave you a system disk
[04:25] <doug__> how do i install pidgin-2.1.1.tar.bz2
[04:26] <skel> mkrufky: your best bet is to boot a livecd with ntfs support and just salvage important data before doing anything first
[04:26] <gib> with 128-bit encryption?
[04:26] <CountX> can someone please help me get the theme in emerald-themer to apply, it wont apply no matter how manyt imes i click it
[04:26] <mkrufky> nickrud: i have the system disk -- not helping.....  its hung on a black screen
[04:26] <jepp> skel, http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/14955/
[04:26] <anandanbu> I am not able to copy iso images from my Ubuntu 7.04 system to my external HDD as it fails at last, help needed
[04:26] <CountX> no one is helping in #ubuntu-effects
[04:26] <mkrufky> skel: there is no important data -- brand new laptop, but thanks
[04:26] <mkrufky> gib: i dont know
[04:26] <nickrud> mkrufky: you'll have to reformat the disk. Happened to me, I used cfdisk on the live cd to repair and restart
[04:26] <no_gatez_fan> 2.6.15-26-686 where can I get the kernel-source
[04:27] <beeew> nickrud, 2 files so far..are there more?
[04:27] <gib> That's his problem 64-bit Firefox works ok, and I even got flash working with a wrapper, but he can't log onto his bank.
[04:27] <CountX> any help please?
[04:27] <mkrufky> nickrud: so, i should use cfdisk to reformat the disk, THEN do the system restore, THEN try feisty install again?
[04:27] <gib> And like I said, it works fine for him on his 32-bit system.
[04:27] <nickrud> beeew: nope, those are the ones that had problems. Now do the dpkg -r --force-remove-reinstreq nginx
[04:27] <jepp> skel, what does this mean: "The synchronous pptp option is NOT activated"
[04:28] <nickrud> mkrufky: if you get get the data off like skel said, I'd try that first
[04:28] <mkrufky> nickrud: there is no data to be gotten -- brand new laptop
[04:28] <Aminux> ive got superuser privileges and still can save the xorg.conf,any ideas?
[04:28] <mkrufky> so, i will try that... thanks
[04:28] <nickrud> mkrufky: but yes, that's what I had to do.  fdisk told me the disk was hopeless
[04:28] <Aminux> *cant save
[04:28] <mkrufky> oof
[04:28] <skel> jepp: I'm no vpn pro I really don't know.. but that log isn't very helpful to me.. if I were you I'd fire up tcpdump or wireshark and see if there's anything you can see at a lower level
[04:28] <mkrufky> ok, well i will stick around and let you know what happens... thanks nickrud
[04:29] <jepp> skel, I will copy the whole log
[04:29] <Aminux> hello
[04:29] <nickrud> so, I will wait another year or two until I try gparted again. Burned twice, a third time I'm an idiot.
[04:29] <gustavo> mkrufky: cant u install linux?
[04:29] <meoblast001> what mount options are used on mtp
[04:29] <Aminux> can someone tell me why i cant edit my xorg.conf in superuser ?
[04:29] <skel> jepp: don't do it for my sake.. like I said, I don't know the product well, it was just a suggestion to look there for something helpful
[04:30] <jepp> ok
[04:30] <skel> jepp: if not there, see if you're making a connection at the lowest level via packet-sniffer.. or if there's a routing issue etc.
[04:30] <jepp> :(
[04:30] <mkrufky> gustavo: im sure i'll be able to....  but i need to use windblows on this machine also
[04:30] <skel> jepp: sorry I can't be of more help =/
[04:30] <mkrufky> of course, it will be primarily linux
[04:31] <nickrud> mkrufky: and you want help here? that's ... diabolical
[04:31] <gustavo> mkrufky: install linux... grub/lilo will find windows and you will be able to access both
[04:31] <Aminux> rhelp!
[04:31] <AncientRelic> can't get SWAT to work?
[04:31] <AncientRelic> I mean I can't
[04:31] <Aminux> rhelp!
[04:31] <mkrufky> nickrud: kernel developers are not experts on ntfs, lol
[04:31] <jrib> gib: 128bit encryption works fine for me in epiphany (and firefox as well I'm guessing)
[04:31] <nickrud> mkrufky: lol
[04:32] <Aminux> pls
[04:32] <mkrufky> gustavo: sounds possible... but, knowing how annoying windows can be, id rather have it installed and working again before bringing linux back up
[04:32] <Aminux> this has never happened b4
[04:32] <mkrufky> linux is the easy part -- always is, and always will be
[04:32] <henryenr> how can i install  vmware workstation into ubuntu
[04:32] <niuq> it doesnt exists a channel for java?
[04:33] <gustavo> niuq yes... #java
[04:33] <AncientRelic> henryenr, I'd check the manual #1 ;) the vmware forums #2
[04:33] <beeew> this has worked nickrud..
[04:33] <vas> hey why does my box keep telling me it cannot find the module when I run "sudo modprobe new_wlan_scan_sta".. the module is included in the restricted modules package (I have installed), yet this stil does not work.. help.. BTW I am on a MBP running feisty
[04:33] <Aminux> anybody going to help or not
[04:33] <henryenr> thanks
[04:33] <niuq> gustavo: no se porque no puedo entrar
[04:33] <nickrud> henryenr:      add    deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main     to your sources, and sudo aptitude install vmware-server
[04:33] <gustavo> niuq:  u need a registered nickname
[04:33] <nickrud> beeew: great. Nice to have a working machine again, eh?
[04:33] <emoe> jepp: what pptp server are you connecting to?
[04:33] <gib> I wonder what else could be different between 32-bit and 64-bit that would make him able to access his bank with the 32-bit FF, but not the 64-bit.
[04:33] <AncientRelic> gib, flash?
[04:34] <jrib> gib: what happens exactly?
[04:34] <l_r> hello
[04:34] <Aminux> unbelievable
[04:34] <AncientRelic> aminux, what's the problem?
[04:34] <skel> Aminux: all we know is that you said you can't get swat to work.. not much to go on there.
[04:34] <gustavo> mkrufky: it will give u less work if u install linux first :P
[04:34] <skel> Aminux: might want to work on your tact as well
[04:34] <ozozo> hi

[04:35] <nickrud> gustavo: opposite: he'd have to reinstall the mbr if he did linux first, cuz windows would overwrite it
[04:35] <IdleOne> echo "xserver-xorg-core hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections is not returning anything but I believe it is because I used Aptitude to set the hold. How do I remove the hold on the package so I can upgrade?
[04:35] <AncientRelic> aminux, you are doing a sudo gedit
[04:35] <TheDukeNY> Is there a way to add dual monitor support to Ubuntu?
[04:35] <Aminux> AncientRelic: yeah :)
[04:35] <vas> plz someone?
[04:35] <usser> TheDukeNY: depends on the video card
[04:35] <julien> i think so duke
[04:35] <gustavo> nickrud: its simple... just reinstall the grub with rescue cd
[04:35] <julien> i know someone who have made it
[04:35] <julien> not me
[04:35] <usser> TheDukeNY: ati and nvidia both have nice tools with their drivers that let u do that
[04:36] <gustavo> nickrud: better than reinstall windows
[04:36] <Netslayer> anyone know how to turn back on focus by mouse over with compiz-fusion? gutsy is annoying me with that
[04:36] <nickrud> IdleOne: in aptitude , locate xserver-xorg-core  and press shift-plus
[04:36] <gustavo> at least its my opinion :D
[04:36] <skel> vas: do you see the module anywhere in /lib/modules/kernel-ver etc
[04:36] <jrib> IdleOne: aptitude unhold
[04:36] <nickrud> gustavo: he wracked his ntfs partition, gonna have to put windows back on.
[04:36] <AncientRelic> aminux, sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf isn't doing anything?
[04:36] <vas> skel hold on let me check
[04:36] <Aminux> AncientRelic: when i try to save,it says the disk is only readable
[04:37] <TheDukeNY> usser: im using an x1400, where would I get these tools
[04:37] <mkrufky> gustavo: the problem is not simply booting
[04:37] <mkrufky> gustavo: the partition table has been corrupted
[04:37] <AncientRelic> aminux, stupid question, reboot and try again?
[04:37] <vas> skel: i have two folders in lob-modules.. one is 2.6.20-15-generic n teh other s the same except a 16 in the place of 15

[04:38] <gustavo> mkrufky: u were lucky then... did u erased the end of ur partition?
[04:38] <nickrud> man, it's been a while since I looked at aptitudes man page. When'd all those options come in?
[04:38] <TheDukeNY> how does that differ xinerama?
[04:39] <gustavo> unlucky i mean hehe
[04:39] <TheDukeNY> *from
[04:39] <vas> skel srry, whut do u mean? (srry to noob it up)
[04:39] <skel> vas: no problem.. if you do: cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`   that will put you at the root of the directory you need to check for the module
[04:39] <kevinO> AncientRelic:  are you trying to access a ntfs partition?
[04:39] <vas> skel: k, i was GUI but il jump into terminal
[04:40] <AncientRelic> kevinO, no
[04:40] <skel> vas: then do find . -name *new_wlan_scan_sta*
[04:40] <AncientRelic> kevin0, trying to set up a samba server
[04:40] <skel> vas: see if it returns anything
[04:40] <kevinO> ahh
[04:40] <doug__> how do i install pidgin?
[04:41] <vas> no such file or directory
[04:41] <IdleOne> nickrud:  thank you. jrib command would be sudo aptitude unhold packagename?
[04:41] <jrib> IdleOne: yep, afaict
[04:41] <skel> doug__: as far as I know, there's no official backport yet for pidgin and you can't build it from source without running into conflicts with gaim.. and you can't uninstall gaim without a little bit of trouble
[04:41] <kevinO> AncientRelic: do you have netkit-inetd installed?
[04:41] <IdleOne> jrib: cool thanks to you too
[04:42] <mkrufky> gustavo: i just resized it smaller
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: DId you get your modem going?
[04:42] <AncientRelic> kevin0, yup
[04:42] <vas> skel: hold on, it put me in the version w/ the prefix 16 at the end, i remember when I looked in the madwifi folder in here, it was empty, while the folder with the 15 at the end had the madwifi folder w/ stuff in it
[04:42] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: There ya r!
[04:42] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: no :'(
[04:42] <mkrufky> meanwhile... .i found a _much) better solution, gustavo and nickrud .....   ntfsfix
[04:42] <nickrud> IdleOne: I've got to become more aware of aptitude's command line; I haven't except for installing & uninstalling for years, and the options have multiplied
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: Did you get it yet?
[04:42] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: Don't know which CD to start with
[04:42] <skel> doug__: the question is.. how bad do you want it and why do you really need it.. do you just want it because you like the new icon.. then I might wait for a backport. otherwise follow the trail of removing gaim and building pidgin from source
[04:42] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: Yep.
[04:42] <nickrud> mkrufky: I know less about ntfs than you do ;)
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Are you plugged into com1
[04:42] <kevinO> AncientRelic: did you install it before or after swat
[04:42] <mkrufky> :-)
[04:43] <vas> skel: I think the older module version contained the madwifi while the new version dosen't, is there any way can transfer them...?
[04:43] <AncientRelic> kevin0, after
[04:43] <doug__> skel i had it while ago before i crashed gnome
[04:43] <Mexel> Well there's only one serial on the board.
[04:43] <doug__> skel i want it back
[04:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: One sec..
[04:43] <AncientRelic> kevin0, should I do a sudo apt-get remove swat?
[04:43] <un_dave> hey anyone here with a little time to tell me whether some hardware is going ot work with ubuntu?
[04:43] <skel> vas: you'd have to rebuild the module
[04:43] <IdleOne> nickrud: I use aptitude all the time for installing/uninstalling and dist-upgrade but never new that aptitude had so many other uses
[04:43] <AncientRelic> un_dave, what hardware?
[04:43] <IdleOne> new/knew
[04:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: Find the modem by going to a terminal and typing dmesg | grep ttyS
[04:43] <kevinO> AncientRelic:  did you edit /etc/inetd.conf and remove  #<off># from the line containing the word swa
[04:43] <vas> skel: well thats not good, what do you beleive I should do?
[04:43] <Mexel> Jack_Sparrow: Ok, one sec
[04:44] <kevinO> AncientRelic: swat not swa
[04:44] <AncientRelic> kevin0, yes
[04:44] <vas> skel: actually that madwifi folder in the older module contains the exact command I am looking for
[04:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Mexel: It should show up as ttyS0 Test in terminal sudo screen /dev/ttyS0
[04:44] <un_dave> AncientRelic, ok, well, i'm building a server, and planning to run ubuntu
[04:44] <AncientRelic> un_dave, I'm doing the same thing right now
[04:44] <cchance> Can some one tell me anything i can try if the modem on my fiesty responds when is called and dials but when it finishes with the ISP about a minute later it disconnects?
[04:44] <nickrud> IdleOne: it's been my primary package manager since nearly day one, but in interactive mode. at the time, apt-get was much more proficient at the command line, so I kinda bifurcated, and left one path alone.
[04:44] <cchance> it does this constantly
[04:44] <un_dave> AncientRelic,  can i paste the list somewhere right now?
[04:44] <AncientRelic> kevin0, "swat            stream  tcp     nowait.400      root    /usr/sbin/swat  swat"
[04:44] <skel> vas: be cautious.. kernel modules aren't compatible across versions typically
[04:45] <AncientRelic> un_dave, just spew it here

[04:50] <ubuntu>  thougth maybe some one here could help
[04:50] <vas> skel: remove, not disable it actually
[04:50] <un_dave> AncientRelic,  they're only 79$ each... and i wont be running them in SLI...
[04:50] <kevinO> un_dave, I have a bfg sli 7300 gts, what are you trying to do?
[04:50] <beeew> AncientRelic, you talkin about Frys?!
[04:50] <AncientRelic> beeew, yup
[04:50] <AncientRelic> beeew, I've been to almost all the store
[04:50] <un_dave> it's for a multihead setup. i have 3x 19" lcds
[04:50] <AncientRelic> stores
[04:51] <beeew> wow..frys fan..or computer stores in general?
[04:51] <nickrud> cchance:   you might get a hint by opening a terminal and running   tail -f /var/log/syslog    that will monitor your syslog when you run a ppp session
[04:51] <AncientRelic> un_dave, I just got a 7300GT for 55 bucks
[04:51] <skel> vas: I suppose you can always re-install it through synaptic, I was just saying you probably did an ubuntu update that updated your kernel and version of the driver.. so I was just suggesting to restart and pick an older kernel from the grub menu when you boot
[04:51] <AncientRelic> beeew, just an old time shopper
[04:51] <skel> vas: but whatever floats your boat =] 
[04:51] <un_dave> AncientRelic, thats 79$ Aussie dollars...
[04:51] <AncientRelic> beeew, I used to go to store #2 in Sunnyvale
[04:51] <KurdishSniper> hi people,  sorry i cant remember the channel where they help you with making ur ubuntu look good
[04:51] <AncientRelic> un_dave, ah
[04:51] <beeew> have u heard of central computers on stevens creek?
[04:52] <vas> skel: nah man, ur the captain of this boat, I am still a noob at this OS, i'm goin w/ whatever u say ;-) lol
[04:52] <AncientRelic> beeew, I remember them before they moved there, used to be on Homestead
[04:52] <nickrud> the best is palo alto
[04:52] <nickrud> and I'll remind us all it's off-topic
[04:52] <kevinO> KurdishSniper: are you talking about ubuntu-effects?
[04:52] <AncientRelic> nickrud, nope Woodland Hills
[04:52] <vas> so I should just boot into grub menu and I will be able to figure it out from there skel
[04:52] <beeew> i am the brother in law of those owners..any suggestions to kill frys?
[04:52] <un_dave> AncientRelic, still yours is slightly cheaper... but you americans get everything a bit cheaper :P
[04:52] <KurdishSniper> KevinO: that is right thanks
[04:52] <KurdishSniper> hehe
[04:52] <kevinO> np
[04:53] <AncientRelic> un_dave, yeah just our luck
[04:53] <beeew> (unless you haven't been there recently, understand)
[04:53] <AncientRelic> beeew, haven't for about 3 years
[04:53] <un_dave> AncientRelic, but anyway, the motherboard and graphics card should be fine? compatability wise?
[04:53] <skel> vas: =P
[04:53] <AncientRelic> un_dave, back OT should be overkill
[04:53] <AncientRelic> un_dave, I'd be running VMware workstation on that and loving it
[04:53] <vas> skel: alright ill go try that, thnx bud.. bb soon.. hopefully
[04:54] <skel> vas: good luck =] 
[04:54] <AncientRelic> un_dave, nividia FTW on Linux
[04:54] <un_dave> AncientRelic, OT ?
[04:54] <AncientRelic> un_dave, on topic
[04:54] <AncientRelic> un_dave, or off topic depending ;)
[04:55] <un_dave> AncientRelic, awesome. I'll buy it today then!
[04:55] <AncientRelic> un_dave, glad to help
[04:55] <AncientRelic> un_dave, I'm running Compiz-Fusion on my 7300 right now, it's lovely
[04:55] <kevinO> AncientRelic:  did you try and go to http://localhost:901
[04:56] <un_dave> AncientRelic, so how easy is vm to setup on ubuntu anyway?
[04:56] <AncientRelic> kevin0, most definitely
[04:56] <AncientRelic> kevin0, I just uninstalled and reinstalled swat as well
[04:56] <un_dave> could i run vista in the background, to stream media to my xbox 360 ? :D
[04:56] <kevinO> yeah 7300 is nice, i play halo 2 on it sometimes flawlessly
[04:56] <AncientRelic> un_dave, I run XP MCE in a VM on my box
[04:56] <AncientRelic> un_dave, and I can RDC right into it
[04:57] <AncientRelic> un_dave, its just like a terminal server without the expense ;)
[04:58] <un_dave> AncientRelic, sweet. so there's no point dual booting then i guess.
[04:58] <kevinO> does vmware supprt vista?
[04:58] <AncientRelic> kevin0, AFAIK 6.0 does
[04:58] <Poul|Raider> if i copyed a folder to my home dir with sudo, whats hte command to make it normal again so i can write in it without sudo rights?
[04:58] <AncientRelic> kevin0, just not sure about aero
[04:58] <kevinO> ok
[04:58] <WillieDaPimp> i keep getting errors like 'E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)' when i try to update fiesty
[04:58] <bruenig> Poul|Raider, sudo chown username:username -R directory
[04:59] <un_dave> AncientRelic, i'd assume the high end graphics stuff in xp/vista wouldnt work in vm ?
[04:59] <AncientRelic> un_dave, I play non 3d games in XP
[04:59] <jrib> bruenig: username:  is shorthand for username:username, saves a few keystrokes :)
[04:59] <skel> vas: any luck?
[04:59] <Poul|Raider> thx bruenig
[04:59] <bruenig> indeed
[04:59] <AncientRelic> un_dave, Direct3d support is a bit experimental
[05:00] <swiftnomad> anyone know of a good php editor that using hilighting like dreamweaver does..
[05:00] <un_dave> AncientRelic, what about 3d games ? :D
[05:00] <AncientRelic> un_dave, that's what Cedega is for
[05:00] <swiftnomad> ????
[05:00] <AncientRelic> un_dave, or wine
[05:00] <kalpik> swiftnomad, try bluefidh
[05:00] <WillieDaPimp> is there a way i can re-install or something without losing the programs i've installed and without losing my /home ???
[05:00] <LM1> what is the command to show the trashcan on the desktop
[05:00] <vas> skel: alright i am in the correct version, but that command still says module not found, I went to the current module folder (it brought me to the correct version), and the file is there in a folder called madwifi but the command does not work.. I am close thoough.. ha
[05:00] <jrib> swiftnomad: gedit does hilighting, so does gvim
[05:00] <Poul|Raider> bruenig, its still not accesable tho?
[05:00] <LM1> sorry I have forgotten
[05:00] <KurdishSniper> guys, what is the plug in that makes a window look like it gets burned as u close it?!
[05:00] <jrib> !icons > LM1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:00] <un_dave> AncientRelic, cool. i'll have to have a play from them
[05:00] <kalpik> swiftnomad, *bluefish
[05:00] <swiftnomad> ok
[05:00] <jrib> !effects > KurdishSniper (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:00] <AncientRelic> KurdishSniper, That's compiz-fusion
[05:00] <bruenig> Poul|Raider, ls -ld directory, paste output
[05:00] <kevinO> WillieDaPimp: is your home directory on a seperate partition?
[05:00] <WillieDaPimp> KurdishSniper, compiz-fusion or beryl
[05:01] <Poul|Raider> bruenig, dr-xr-x--- 15 raider raider 4096 2007-09-09 01:24 woW/
[05:01] <bruenig> Poul|Raider, chmod 755 directory
[05:01] <LM1> WOW
[05:01] <AncientRelic> WillieDaPimp, beryl, has been rolled back into Compiz, just let the name die ;)
[05:01] <LM1> thanks
[05:01] <KurdishSniper> jrib: i tried, no answer bro
[05:01] <KurdishSniper> compiz-fusion
[05:01] <skel> vas: are you sure the module isn't loaded already?
[05:01] <vas> in /lib/module/generic/madwifi/wlan_scan_sta.ko << that is the file I need to run sudo modpbobe new_wlan_scan_sta
[05:01] <LM1> that was like superfast!
[05:01] <WillieDaPimp> kevinO, nope, for some reason during my install it would fail if i had my /home on a seperate partition
[05:01] <jrib> KurdishSniper: the topic of the channel has links to instructions
[05:01] <vas> skel: this is a posibility my friend, let me check that out, is there an easy way to do it?
[05:01] <KurdishSniper> jrib: oh, okay, ill go for that... thanks pal.
[05:02] <AncientRelic> KurdishSniper, http://www.opencompositing.org/
[05:02] <Poul|Raider> working now bruenig
[05:02] <kevinO> WillieDaPimp:  the only way i know is to back up your home directory somewhere else then
[05:02] <WillieDaPimp> AncientRelic, yea i know, i think personally compiz-fusion and beryl both are a waste of ram
[05:02] <kevinO> WillieDaPimp:  i have a ntfs partiotion i use for that
[05:02] <skel> vas: if you just do lsmod
[05:02] <AncientRelic> WillieDaPimp, when you've got 4G of memory what the hell
[05:02] <pppoe_dude> anyone familiar with smartctl?
[05:02] <KurdishSniper> jrib: i've installed it already. im just looking for specific plug ins
[05:02] <WillieDaPimp> kevinO, yea thats what i was thinking about doing
[05:02] <kalpik> KurdishSniper, its under the animations plugin
[05:02] <jrib> KurdishSniper: oh, you probably have it.  You just need to configure it
[05:03] <WillieDaPimp> AncientRelic, cause you can have 4G of ram dedicated to coding :)
[05:03] <KurdishSniper> AncientRelic: thanks pal, ia m htere
[05:03] <pppoe_dude> if all the results are pretty far from the threshold after a long test, does that mean that the harddisk is ok?
[05:03] <KurdishSniper> kalpik: that is what i was looking for, thanks.
[05:03] <AncientRelic> gotta run for a bit all
[05:04] <kilin> hello hi!
[05:04] <vas> skel: it is not in there, neither madwifi, or the command (or any form of it)... and my wifi does not show up in network settings
[05:04] <kevinO> hello
[05:04] <kevinO> howe
[05:04] <WillieDaPimp> getting use to the ways of ubuntu is killing me, personally coming from a LFS, Gentoo, and Slackware background, ubuntu is totally different the way thngs are set up
[05:04] <skel> vas: what happens if you do modprobe madwifi (as root or with sudo) ?
[05:04] <kilin> can I ask you for a little problem i have with ubuntu?
[05:05] <kalpik> !ask | kilin
[05:05] <ubotu> kilin: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:05] <kilin> lol, you're right
[05:05] <kevinO> haha
[05:05] <WillieDaPimp> but i figured i might as well make the change cause ubuntu is the linux of the present and future, and i think it has the most potential in the desktop market
[05:05] <vas> skel: faltal madwifi not found,
[05:05] <kilin> i have some problems with .rm files
[05:05] <kilin> i play them with realplayer
[05:05] <jahnkeanater> does any one know how to use the py_compile module in python IDLE
[05:05] <kilin> but the audio is disturbed
[05:06] <skel> vas: hmm
[05:06] <kalpik> kilin, why dont you try playing them with VLC or Mplayer?
[05:06] <swiftnomad> how do I add files to public_html I cannot see them and I just installed apatche
[05:06] <kevinO> kilin: what do you mean by disturbed?
[05:06] <nickrud> WillieDaPimp: yea, things are different but it's consistent once you get the hang
[05:06] <ubuntu> beleza
[05:07] <kilin> i was searching for the english word... XD
[05:07] <jrib> swiftnomad: first you need to do 'sudo a2enmod userdir', then possibly restart apache, and then put files in your user's ~/public_html/
[05:07] <maxd> hello!
[05:07] <ubuntu> quais as novidades de jogos?
[05:07] <kalpik> swiftnomad, you would need to add the files to /var/www/html
[05:07] <kilin> i mean... not fluent
[05:07] <jrib> !br | ubuntu
[05:07] <ubotu> ubuntu: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[05:07] <WillieDaPimp> nickrud, yea, thats what i've heard, but using apt-get is nothing like emerege, etc-update, etc....
[05:08] <vas> skel: any ideas?
[05:08] <nickrud> swiftnomad:   sudo a2enmod userdir
[05:08] <kevinO> sorry kilin i dont know what you mean, i would just do what kalpik suggested
[05:08] <maxd> uh i accidently removed some stuff of the panel at the top right (updates, wenever rythmbox is running i dont see the little note) how do i put these back
[05:08] <maxd> ?
[05:08] <skel> vas: if the module is in the directory but you don't have madwifi support for that version, I'd go back to the last version you had support with it
[05:08] <kevinO> maxd right click the panel and click add to panel
[05:08] <kilin> uhm
[05:08] <kilin> ok
[05:08] <swiftnomad> I get an error: open: Permission denied
[05:08] <swiftnomad>  * Forcing reload of web server (apache2)...                                    apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
[05:08] <swiftnomad> httpd (pid 7128?) not running
[05:09] <kilin> so i'll search for vlc or mplayer on the repositories?
[05:09] <maxd> kevin0: i know that, but what do i add, to get what i not have?
[05:09] <skel> vas: or spend $30 and go get a card that has a better supported chipset like orinoco or something =P
[05:09] <kevinO> kilin: yes
[05:09] <kalpik> kilin, yes
[05:09] <nickrud> swiftnomad: you used sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start ?
[05:09] <skel> vas: is this an atheros card?
[05:09] <vas> skel: I never did, i've never tried this before, I am running on a mac book pro and I am using the section wifi from here to set up https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro
[05:09] <vas> skel: yes
[05:09] <amunra> What are good Anti-Virus'es for Linux - in Synaptic?
[05:09] <perl_cont> out of interest
[05:09] <vas> skel: I heard they were nice anyways
[05:10] <kilin> ok ty.. just another thing
[05:10] <jrib> amunra: no need for anti-virus, worry about using your computer :)
[05:10] <gundumfx> eddy
[05:10] <gundumfx> whats up
[05:10] <swiftnomad> apatche is running but I did: sudo a2enmod userdir
[05:10] <jahnkeanater> do u need anti virus
[05:10] <nickrud> amunra: clamav , but that's for cleaning mail for windows ; there's no anti-virus for linux itself
[05:10] <kilin> what program can i use to erase a dvd rw?
[05:10] <gundumfx> anyone knwo any new ubuntu hacks
[05:10] <amunra> jrib: ;) It's not for linux --- It to scan and clean out my Windows mnt :|
[05:10] <swiftnomad> than followed these instrutions
[05:10] <swiftnomad> Module userdir installed; run /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload to enable.
[05:10] <skel> vas: I'm sure its possible to get it working but if you don't know how to configure kernels and such, I wouldn't want to walk you through a kernel config blind
[05:10] <jrib> amunra: heh, clamav as nickrud suggested then
[05:10] <kevinO> maxd, im not sure, make sure you add "notification area" though
[05:10] <swiftnomad> and I did that of course.
[05:10] <maxd> ok
[05:10] <amunra> nickrud: Ok, so any ideas on how to clean out a windows mount ? :D
[05:10] <amunra> Ok..
[05:10] <amunra> I'll google away
[05:10] <skel> vas: I'm sorry =/
[05:10] <amunra> thanks guys
[05:10] <maxd> kevin0 that makes sense
[05:11] <Talcite> hey guys, I have a 3com 3c905cx, it doesn't seem to be able to be initialized
[05:11] <nickrud> amunra: no, I don't use windows much at all
[05:11] <amunra> nickrud: And why would you? :P
[05:11] <vas> does anyone here have any experience with getting madwifi to work?
[05:11] <kevinO> maxd, notification area is for anything like ubuntu updates , etc,etc
[05:11] <vas> skel: thnx for everything else bud i appreciate it
[05:11] <nickrud> amunra: work, work, work. But, they let me do as much on linux as I am able. Good people
[05:11] <maxd> kevin0 thanks!
[05:12] <jahnkeanater> how do i use py_compile
[05:12] <jahnkeanater> python
[05:12] <kevinO> yep :)
[05:12] <skel> vas: anytime, sorry I couldn't help more =[
[05:12] <swiftnomad> nickrud, did you see my error?
[05:12] <nickrud> swiftnomad: then I don't know what permission it's denying ; do you have your home unreadable?
[05:12] <swiftnomad> how do I check?
[05:13] <kevinO> Talcite: is that a modem or nic card you speak of?
[05:13] <nickrud> swiftnomad:  ls -l /home   mine is    drwxr-xr-x 126 rich     rich      4096 2007-09-13 17:19 rich  (r readable by me, group and others)
[05:13] <underdog5004> does anyone know how to burn a .cdr file?
[05:13] <xIke> anyone else getting spammed by tons of Arab users?
[05:14] <swiftnomad> nickrud, mine is: drwxr-xr-x 54 swiftnomad swiftnomad 4096 2007-09-13 20:04 swiftnomad
[05:14] <kevinO> underdog, did you try to right click the file and click write to disc?
[05:14] <Talcite> kevin0: that is a nic that I speak of
[05:14] <underdog5004> kevinO, doesn't have that option
[05:14] <underdog5004> I was hoping for a command line or something
[05:14] <Talcite> kevin0: it has difficulties being initialized
[05:14] <nickrud> swiftnomad: then that's ok, do the same on /home/swiftnomad for public_html
[05:14] <pacmanfan> does compiling from the terminal take advantage of dual cores?
[05:14] <jahnkeanater> is there a way to convert windows games to work on linux
[05:14] <underdog5004> !wine jahnkeanater
[05:14] <Talcite> kevin0: error while getting interface flags, is the exact error
[05:15] <underdog5004> !cedega jahnkeanater
[05:15] <phpusmo> is there a windows media services alternative for linux?
[05:15] <kevinO> underdog5004:  i dont know then i have never had to burn one of those, I would imaging you could find an app for it in the repos
[05:15] <swiftnomad> nickrud, I dont see a public_html listed.
[05:15] <jahnkeanater> i am using wine but i dont want to open wine and find the exe to start it evert time
[05:15] <jahnkeanater> every
[05:16] <slimjimflim> hi, i my internet just crapped out on me in feisty. i need to set the connection back to default...can anybody help?
[05:16] <nickrud> swiftnomad: that's where apache looks for public_html , your personal web serve.    If all you're looking for is the where does apache serve from by default, it's /var/www
[05:16] <kevinO> Talcite is it the only nic card your system has?
[05:16] <Talcite> kevin0: yes
[05:16] <phpusmo> anyone?
[05:17] <Talcite> kevin0: I'd prefer to have this one working, I have some replacements though I'm not sure they work either
[05:17] <swiftnomad> yes nickrud, but how do I view /ver/www because I cannot find it.
[05:17] <kevinO> talcite  what happens when you run ifconfig eth0 up
[05:17] <bruenig> jahnkeanater, write a script to do it, then create a .desktop file with Exec=thatscript and drop it in /usr/share/applications
[05:17] <nickrud> swiftnomad: and if you don't want to serve anything from your home dir, then a2dismod userdir
[05:17] <zetsumei1> hey
[05:17] <nickrud> swiftnomad: in a terminal,  cd /var/www
[05:17] <zetsumei1> anyone here
[05:17] <kevinO> yes were all here
[05:17] <swiftnomad> ok
[05:17] <zetsumei1> its to quiet in uf-beginners -_-
[05:17] <zetsumei1> who uses irssi
[05:17] <Talcite> kevin0: I get the error, error while getting interface flags: no such device"
[05:18] <nickrud> swiftnomad: for a quick tutorial on using the command line, go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[05:18] <zetsumei1> anyone know any other CLI based irc clients
[05:18] <zetsumei1> i have irssi now, and it's hard to use -_-
[05:18] <bruenig> bitchx
[05:19] <don_pucci> anyone experience system freeze on user logout or know where i can look in logs to tell why?
[05:19] <Flannel> zetsumei1: What are you having trouble with?
[05:19] <swiftnomad> nickrud, ok thanks but it told me when I ran:  cd /var/www Could no open location 'fire:///cd /ver/www' the location or file could not be found.
[05:19] <kevinO> Talcite: run lspci -v|grep -i ethernet and tell me what that says
[05:19] <zetsumei1> i just wanted to know if there were simpilar CLI irc clients besides irssi
[05:19] <pppoe_dude> how can i force an unmount even if the device is in use?
[05:20] <Numzie> how do i remove a user?
[05:20] <nickrud> swiftnomad: ah you wanna see from firefox  :)    127.0.0.1
[05:20] <phpusmo> is there a windows media services alternative for linux
[05:20] <aslan> Numzie: just use userdel username
[05:20] <zetsumei1> one question: how do i install fonts for openbox?
[05:20] <swiftnomad> I can see from firefox. but I cannot add things to see in firefox.
[05:20] <swiftnomad> =P
[05:20] <aslan> pppoe_dude: use umount -l /path/to/mount
[05:20] <Talcite> kevin0: 3com 3c905C-Tx-M[tornado]  rev78
[05:21] <nickrud> swiftnomad: well, now you've learned three important things:  how to turn on apache enhancements, where to put your html, and that you need to read up on the command line ;PP
[05:21] <gravemind> how do you upgrade to gutsy? Is it gksu update-manager -c -d?
[05:21] <don_pucci> anyone experience system freeze on user logout or know where i can look in logs to tell why?
[05:21] <pppoe_dude> aslan, do you know if that is safe to do if i want to perform a e2fsck?
[05:21] <zetsumei1> one question: how do i install fonts for openbox?
[05:21] <pppoe_dude> !repeat | zetsumei1
[05:21] <ubotu> zetsumei1: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[05:21] <nickrud> don_pucci: I saw that a lot with fglrx and beryl
[05:21] <aslan> pppoe_dude: not really sure.
[05:21] <Numzie> aslan lol i sent u a bunch of messages but im not authed so u didnt get em -.-
[05:21] <don_pucci> nickrud..im not using beryl
[05:21] <yetengji> i need some help with xorg
[05:22] <swiftnomad> nickrud, I dont feel like I learned anything since I'm unable to add files to the dir.
[05:22] <aslan> Numzie: ah I see
[05:22] <don_pucci> not sure about fglrx
[05:22] <kevinO> Talcite: Im guessing that its loding the incorrect drivers for your nic let me check a couple things
[05:22] <swiftnomad> or even open them.
[05:22] <aslan> well did you get it working with samba ?
[05:22] <nickrud> don_pucci: restricted driver for ati
[05:22] <Numzie> yea i did :)
[05:22] <Numzie> i turned off all permissions
[05:22] <nickrud> swiftnomad: /var/www is a protected system dir, you have to use your admin privileges ; that is, use sudo from the command line
[05:22] <don_pucci> according to restricted driver manager...i have none
[05:23] <nickrud> don_pucci: then otherwise, no I haven't. sorry
[05:23] <Talcite> kevin0: I'm using the 3c59x module
[05:23] <shaffy> noob question here.  when it says 'log of gnome,' how do i do that?
[05:23] <nickrud> swiftnomad: you really should take a quick look at that link I gave you
[05:23] <don_pucci> i think it is a gconf thing
[05:23] <don_pucci> not sure
[05:23] <shaffy> *log out of gnome
[05:23] <nickrud> shaffy: the off button on the top menu bar
[05:24] <aslan> Numzie: ok cool
[05:24] <Numzie> so yea aslan thanks for all the help bro, if you wouldnt mind logging out the ssh now :p
[05:24] <aslan> adding guest ok = yes, shoud have fixed it.
[05:24] <aslan> I'm out
[05:24] <swiftnomad> Yes Im aware of it. =P root@swiftnomad-desktop:/home/swiftnomad# cd /ver/www
[05:24] <swiftnomad> bash: cd: /ver/www: No such file or directory
[05:24] <aslan> run w
[05:24] <kevinO> Talcite: is there a module that starts with 3c905 or something like that
[05:24] <aslan> it wil show you who's logged in
[05:24] <nickrud> swiftnomad: /var/www
[05:24] <shaffy> hmm, okay nickrud, but it seems as though there should still be an interface somewhere, cause i have to input some commands
[05:24] <Torahteen> Hi everyone. I'm trying to compile Hydra. When I type "make" it gets to a file and mentions that there is no "openssl/*" file. I used apt-get install openssl, which worked, but then there's no openssl-dev package. Any idea where I can get the openssl headers?
[05:24] <Numzie> hmmm says ur still in aslan so i cant delete your account =\
[05:24] <aslan> nope, I'm not connected
[05:24] <swiftnomad> ok now it opened. I'll take a look. thank you nickrud.
[05:25] <nickrud> shaffy: oh, they're sending you to a virtual console.  alt-ctl-f1 - f6
[05:25] <Talcite> kevin0: not loaded atleast
[05:25] <LM1> I absolutely love ubuntu!
[05:25] <LM1> :D
[05:25] <Talcite> kevin0: only 3c59x
[05:25] <aslan> Numzie: try this
[05:25] <LM1> :)
[05:25] <aslan> ps auxwww|grep aslan
[05:25] <aslan> then kill that process
[05:25] <kevinO> Talcite: did you load that module manually?
[05:25] <Torahteen> Can I be heard?
[05:25] <shaffy> nickrud,  so either f1 through f6?
[05:25] <Torahteen> BTW, do I just have to make sure I sign in with nickserv before chatting here?
[05:25] <Talcite> kevin0: I did load it myself, but I didn't check to see if it was already loaded
[05:26] <Numzie> aslan how i kill it?
[05:26] <nickrud> shaffy: exactly, there are 6 virtual consoles you can use. You can reach them at any time during your session
[05:26] <aslan> Numzie: look for the PID and then run kill <pid>
[05:26] <Numzie> nevermind im just going to shutdown for tonight anyway
[05:26] <Torahteen> Hi everyone. I'm trying to compile Hydra. When I type "make" it gets to a file and mentions that there is no "openssl/*" file. I used apt-get install openssl, which worked, but then there's no openssl-dev package. Any idea where I can get the openssl headers?
[05:26] <nickrud> shaffy: hangover from the pre gui days, and still useful
[05:26] <aslan> Torahteen: don't double post so fast
[05:26] <don_pucci> getting frustrated...mandriva or debian is looking better everyday
[05:27] <kevinO> talcite, i would try to remove the module, restart and see if it will load a module for it. I t usually does it automatically
[05:27] <nickrud> Torahteen: libssl-dev
[05:27] <Torahteen> aslan I'm sorry, I thought that the first time didn't get accepted... I apologize
[05:27] <Talcite> kevin0: sure
[05:27] <Torahteen> nickrud, Thanks!
[05:27] <nickrud> Torahteen: and if you want to pm, yes
[05:28] <kevinO> Talcite:  I have never loaded any drivers for anything in ubuntu, it just works :D
[05:28] <setite> anyone here have torrentflux
[05:28] <kevinO> well accept for my printer
[05:28] <Talcite> kevin0: lucky =P I load them every now and then
[05:28] <Talcite> kevin0: this system especially
[05:29] <kevinO> are you running feisty?
[05:29] <Talcite> kevin0: feisty server
[05:29] <setite> anyone here using torrentflux
[05:29] <kevinO> ahh
[05:30] <kevinO> setite just ask your question
[05:30] <setite> ok
[05:30] <setite> well im trying to get it working
[05:30] <setite> but i need the bittornado python script
[05:30] <setite> or scripts
[05:30] <kevinO> did you install it form the repos?
[05:30] <setite> there is 3
[05:30] <Talcite> kevin0: err... I think my system stopped posting
[05:30] <setite> yes
[05:30] <don_pucci> is there a way to tell what vid card and driver i am using?
[05:30] <rockets> Anybody here using Parallels on ubuntu?
[05:30] <rockets> I'm wondering how it compares to vmware
[05:30] <kevinO> talcite stopped posting??
[05:31] <Talcite> kevin0: yeah... pretty strange
[05:31] <kevinO> you mean the errors?
[05:31] <Talcite> kevin0: I'll see what a cmos reset does
[05:31] <stephans> does anyone have a suggestion on what program to use to make a DVD with picture slide shows?
[05:31] <kevinO> oh lol
[05:31] <Talcite> kevin0: no, I mean POST, power on self test =S
[05:31] <kevinO> :)
[05:32] <kevinO> setite, i dont know how to help you, I use ktorrent
[05:32] <kevinO> it just works
[05:33] <Grungebunny> kevinO you just discovered the best slogan for that software "it just works"
[05:33] <kevinO> i think ive used it twice in the past 5 minutes:)
[05:34] <don_pucci> is there a way to tell what vid card and driver i am using?
[05:34] <kevinO> weird
[05:35] <Stix> is anyone here running ubuntu in VmWare ?
[05:35] <Stix> im wondering if its possible to have the video card to show up properly in ubuntu..
[05:36] <don_pucci> i cannot believe that this mature version of ubuntu has a bug when switching users
[05:36] <kevinO> don_pucci: theres probably a better way to do it but run lspci
[05:36] <juxhi> hey guys
[05:36] <franky123> hey, i just did sudo apt-get install mysql-server php5 apache2 php5-mysql. but i still get the error "undefined call to function mysql_connect". how to fix?
[05:36] <don_pucci> ya...i just figured that out...thx kevin
[05:36] <kevinO> oops lspci | more
[05:37] <don_pucci> i mean..its version 7.04
[05:37] <don_pucci> not windows 98
[05:37] <szerox86> Stix: there should be some documentation with VMWare on how to install the 'vmware tools' to get better video performance -- sorry I can't help you more, i'm going completely off of really old memories
[05:37] <|brad|> lshw is pretty sweet too
[05:37] <shaffy> nickrud, i'm back :)  i didn't know how to get out of that console.  when i hit alt-ctl-f1-f6, does it log me completely out of gnome, or can i return to it and my open applications?
[05:37] <Stix> szerox86: thanks.
[05:37] <nickrud> shaffy: sorry, the gui is on alt-ctl-f7 :)
[05:38] <don_pucci> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/78470
[05:38] <don_pucci> sigh
[05:38] <shaffy> hehe okay, so it bring me back?
[05:38] <shaffy> *brings
[05:38] <nickrud> Stix: ubuntu comes with a driver for inside vmware, that's no problem.
[05:39] <don_pucci> is debian based on ubuntu?
[05:39] <shaffy> nickrud, thanks dude.  much appreciated.
[05:39] <kevinO> lol
[05:39] <Flannel> don_pucci: it is
[05:39] <UberGeekInc> ubuntu is based on debian
[05:39] <Flannel> don_pucci: er, sorry.  other way around.
[05:39] <Stix> nickrud: well something isn't right.. its coming up as 'vmware display adapter'
[05:39] <don_pucci> ok...
[05:39] <Stix> do you know how i can fix it ?
[05:39] <don_pucci> thx
[05:39] <don_pucci> maybe i will try that instead of this release
[05:39] <shaffy> nickrud: another question.  is the console just like a terminal window?
[05:40] <kevinO> don_pucci: it seems your bug is fixed in gutsy
[05:40] <UberGeekInc> shaffy: no, but close
[05:40] <zetsumei> got a question: do i use scp while i'm sshed into another machine
[05:40] <nickrud> Stix: that's what it is
[05:40] <UberGeekInc> zetsumei: to copy files, you can use scp yes
[05:40] <don_pucci> kevin...ya...i have to wait until then
[05:40] <don_pucci> that is so stupid
[05:40] <Talcite> kevin0: it loaded 3c59x, same as before =/
[05:40] <Stix> ok, but is it possible to use ATI drivers in there ? otherwise i can't try beryl or compiz fusion..
[05:40] <Talcite> kevin0: and same result, flag errors
[05:40] <nickrud> shaffy: for most purposes, yes. No cut and paste (but if you install gpm you can cut and paste between terminals)
[05:40] <kevinO> don_pucci: also yould be downloading for a few days if you want debian
[05:41] <don_pucci> what do u mean kevin
[05:41] <shaffy> UberGeekInc: so, for a noob, it would be fair to say there are equal?  :)
[05:41] <nickrud> shaffy: gnome terminal is a 'terminal-emulator' by the way :)
[05:41] <kevinO> Talcite i dont know then :/
[05:41] <UberGeekInc> kevin0: netinst will only install what you need - you can do the same in ubuntu as well
[05:41] <Talcite> kevin0: aww, thanks anyways =D
[05:41] <kevinO> don_pucci: debian comes on 4 dvd's
[05:41] <brenbo> hello
[05:41] <kevinO> UberGeekInc: thanks for the info
[05:41] <franky123> hey, i just did sudo apt-get install mysql-server php5 apache2 php5-mysql. but i still get the error "undefined call to function mysql_connect". how to fix?
[05:42] <UberGeekInc> shaffy: for now, sure - but look for the differences later on
[05:42] <shaffy> nickrud: okay.  so the real deal is the console, not the gnome terminal.  thanks :)
[05:42] <nickrud> Stix: no, no ati & beryl in vmware
[05:42] <Grungebunny> why would you need to emulate the terminal in ubuntu?
[05:42] <Flannel> kevinO: You only need the first CD to install though.
[05:42] <Stix> nickrud: ok :(
[05:42] <shaffy> UberGeekInc:  thanks bro.  much appreciated.
[05:42] <brenbo> 
[05:42] <don_pucci> fine...then i will use mandriva or opensuse
[05:42] <UberGeekInc> franky123: configure mysql-server
[05:42] <nickrud> !cn
[05:42] <ubotu> For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk

[05:43] <ubotu>  #ubuntu-jp  #kubuntu-jp 
[05:43] <UberGeekInc> Grungebunny: traditionally, you can admin everything and anything through the terminal
[05:43] <Stix> can someone tell me how to remove the MBR from a disk? i had XP on this HD before and when i installed ubuntu on it it said it couldn't load the OS.
[05:43] <kevinO> don_pucci:  UberGeekInc just said you only need the first dvd
[05:43] <nickrud>  gives it away :)
[05:43] <shaffy> to anyone who can help me:  i've been getting a 4 min hang when i log onto my desktop followed by an error msg "There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon."  any ideas anyone?
[05:43] <don_pucci> ya..i am reading on their site now...

[05:43] <kevinO> don_pucci: ok good luck :)
[05:43] <zetsumei> do i use SCP WHILE i'm connected via ssh or what
[05:43] <don_pucci> thx...i guess
[05:44] <nickrud> zetsumei: no, it starts a fresh ssh session
[05:44] <supercool330> Can anyone help me with an ubuntu problem?
[05:44] <jmak642> supercool330: what you got?
[05:44] <don_pucci> it comes out in october right?
[05:44] <jmak642> don_pucci: something like the 18th i think was the date
[05:44] <UberGeekInc> kevin0: there is actually a 50 mb (?) image you can use to start the netinst image - you have to search through the ubuntu sites for it though (debian as well)
[05:44] <kevinO> Does anyone know if its possible Talcite's system is loading the wrond drivers for his nic card?
[05:44] <supercool330> So I loaded Ubuntu FF onto the second hd of my laptop worked fine but then when I try to boot it gets stuck on the third little bar thing
[05:44] <franky123> ubergeekinc: what should i change?
[05:44] <UberGeekInc> don_pucci: yup
[05:45] <zetsumei> i was just in a ssh session though
[05:45] <jmak642> supercool330: does the livecd start?
[05:45] <don_pucci> grr...i dont want to wait until then to be able to switch users
[05:45] <don_pucci> lol
[05:45] <nicholaspaul> I cant get to my wifi router :( I try sudo dhclient3 but it says No DHCPOFFERS received. What can i try next?
[05:45] <Stix> can someone tell me how to remove the MBR from a disk? i had XP on this HD before and when i installed ubuntu on it it said it couldn't load the OS.
[05:45] <perseus> guys i want to know which version of ubuntu is suitable for a linux new corner,, ubuntu,,kubuntu,,etc
[05:45] <kevinO> Talcite do you have a live cd?
[05:45] <UberGeekInc> franky123: install mysql-server, then go to /usr/share/doc/mysql-server/ (?) to read the readme to give you instructions - look for the debian readme
[05:45] <Talcite> kevin0: I do, should I give it a try?
[05:45] <thedonvaughn> perseus: all of 'em
[05:45] <supercool330> Havent tried that I used the Alternate text installer I have a fried who had problems with the live CD installation
[05:45] <zetsumei> !fluxbuntu give perseus
[05:45] <DARKGuy> Hey guys, how do I configure compiz-fusion to rotate the cube with the middle mouse button like Beryl used to do? I've asked in #ubuntu-effects and got no replies as of now, so sorry for asking in here :P
[05:46] <thedonvaughn> perseus: i'd recommend ubuntu tho
[05:46] <kevinO> yeah, i would and see if you can use it in there
[05:46] <daedalus__> ihello
[05:46] <jmak642> supercool330: try to start the computer with the livecd
[05:46] <supercool330> K it will take a bit to download and burn
[05:46] <kevinO> talcite, if you can then thats probably whats wrong..
[05:46] <daedalus__> if i keep getting this kind  of errors when executing a make command, what can i do to avoid them: /usr/include/linux/wireless.h:646: error: __s32 does not name a type
[05:46] <don_pucci> can i download gutsy unstable now?
[05:46] <evri2> how can i change the output filename on wget?
[05:46] <daedalus__> i think i might be missing something
[05:46] <perseus> aha

[05:50] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: do a `dmesg | less`
[05:51] <supercool330> what?
[05:51] <jmak642> what irc clients should i try?
[05:51] <jmak642> i have ksirc, not diggin it
[05:51] <nicholaspaul> jmak642:  irssi
[05:51] <kevinO> jmak i use xirc and pidgin
[05:51] <don_pucci> jmak...not xchat...i am very unimpressed with it
[05:51] <UberGeekInc> jmak642: bitchx for console and xchat for gnome
[05:51] <joejaxx> jmak642: irssi is amazing
[05:51] <nicholaspaul> sright joejaxx
[05:52] <niru> hello joejaxx
[05:52] <don_pucci> xchat is not very good imo
[05:52] <joejaxx> hello niru
[05:52] <||> irssi + screen = win
[05:52] <joejaxx> ||: :D
[05:52] <don_pucci> cant really configure very much
[05:52] <nicholaspaul> And irssi is even better with screen
[05:52] <||> hey joejaxx
[05:52] <jmak642> don_pucci: it must be better than ksirc
[05:52] <kevinO> i like pidgin cause i can have everything in one program
[05:52] <don_pucci> no idea
[05:52] <nickrud> screen addicts , pfft ;)
[05:52] <don_pucci> never used ksirc
[05:52] <joejaxx> ||: 23:52 Irssi uptime: 245d 13h 2m 18s :D
[05:52] <jmak642> !info screen
[05:52] <ubotu> screen: a terminal multiplexor with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation. In component main, is optional. Version 4.0.3-0.2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 571 kB, installed size 980 kB
[05:52] <don_pucci> i think mirc for win is best client ever
[05:53] <don_pucci> too bad there is no linux port
[05:53] <kevinO> hehe
[05:53] <thedonvaughn> don_pucci: ew
[05:53] <maxd> #compiz-fusion
[05:53] <jmak642> don_pucci: i dont have windows
[05:53] <||> kevinO: you can use bitlbee as a gateway to talk to the msn / icq / yahoo protocol etc in irc ... it's a pseudo-ircd
[05:53] <Talcite> kevin0: this is VERY strange, the liveCD works fine with it!
[05:53] <don_pucci> lol
[05:53] <don_pucci> i know that
[05:53] <jmak642> i am 100% ubuntu
[05:53] <don_pucci> i said too bad
[05:53] <Talcite> kevin0: it's also using the 3c59x module
[05:54] <don_pucci> im still looking for a good irc client
[05:54] <kevinO> Talcite, your system is loading the wrong module then
[05:54] <kevinO> err
[05:54] <jmak642> ok, gonna try this irssi
[05:54] <kevinO> maybe its setup differently
[05:54] <Talcite> kevin0: it's an edgy liveCD if anything
[05:54] <zetsumei> how do i install font for openbox
[05:54] <Talcite> kevin0: not 2.6.16
[05:54] <Talcite> kevin0: err the live CD is 2.6.17
[05:55] <kevinO> talcite i suggest you ask one of the other guys here, they might be able to help you out more, maybe breunig or jrib
[05:55] <kevinO> i havent seen them in a while though
[05:56] <supercool330> How do I do a dmesg|less in grub?
[05:56] <kevinO> Talcite: at least you know it can work :)
[05:57] <niru> joejaxx, i have usb that is bootable
[05:57] <zetsumei> how do i install font for openbox
[05:57] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: ah sorry - wasn't following the thread
[05:57] <niru> and it works fine in my system
[05:57] <Talcite> kevin0: yeah, atleast I know it works =D
[05:57] <Talcite> kevin0: no problem =D
[05:57] <Talcite> kevin0: thanks for all your help =D
[05:57] <niru> but in other systems it shows error as unablt to retrieve preconfgiurtion file
[05:58] <kevinO> no problem Talcite
[05:58] <niru> joejaxx, many i know y
[05:58] <don_pucci> how can u get list of users on the sidebar with xchat ffs
[05:58] <ganoush> can i emulate ubuntu in windows or vice versa?
[05:58] <supercool330> no problem
[05:58] <joejaxx> niru: what disc are we talking about?
[05:59] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: what are you seeing at the grub prompt?
[05:59] <explosiveFerret> hello everyone
[05:59] <niru> joejaxx, usb
[05:59] <supercool330> hmm strange I added the debug flag to my grub boo  comands and it loaded
[05:59] <joejaxx> ganoush: what do you mean by emulate
[05:59] <joejaxx> ganoush: like vmware?
[05:59] <daedalus__> whats simple-replay?
[05:59] <joejaxx> niru: no i mean what are you trying to load off of the usb
[05:59] <supercool330> or not now the bar on the startup screen finished but all I see is a black screen
[05:59] <niru> joejaxx, I have loaded os for installing through usb
[05:59] <ganoush> joejaxx: depends what vmware does
[06:00] <niru> joejaxx, which works very well in my systme
[06:00] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: could it be your monitor incorrectly set?  do you know if the system booted or not?
[06:00] <ganoush> i only have 1 computer and am running dual boot
[06:00] <niru> joejaxx, same usb when i take to another machine it shows unable to retrieve the.seed file
[06:00] <ganoush> it would be nice not to have to boot into ubuntu
[06:00] <ganoush> i'm just testing out apache/php jetty...
[06:00] <ganoush> internal stufff
[06:00] <explosiveFerret> I am looking for a way to run windows xp in ubuntu.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
[06:00] <joejaxx> ganoush: then you want vmware
[06:01] <niru> joejaxx, which if I pass manually through console mode ie find hd-media/,preseed_command hd-media
[06:01] <niru> everything goes well
[06:01] <ganoush> is vmware free?
[06:01] <don_pucci> hmmm
[06:01] <Pelo> ganoush, vmware allows to run a virtual computer inside a host os and have anothr os instaled on it,   you might want to start with wine wich allows you to run window applications in linux as if they were native
[06:01] <joejaxx> ganoush: yes http://www.vmware.com/download/server/
[06:01] <admin8tor> some vmware is free, the better ones are $$
[06:01] <don_pucci> turns out i am using xchat gnome...which is different that xchagt
[06:01] <don_pucci> no idea why
[06:01] <supercool330> No I am not sure if the OS booted and I', almost sure I havent set my monitor right
[06:02] <ganoush> so if i want to run ubuntu from windows i get the server for windows?
[06:02] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: do you know how to get into the grub edit menu?
[06:02] <don_pucci> brb
[06:02] <joejaxx> niru: ohhh you are talking about the debian installer
[06:02] <explosiveFerret> will vmware allow me to run windows, and thus office, through Ubuntu?
[06:02] <supercool330> I an gyessing that it is a video problem considering I can boot the comand line ust fine
[06:02] <niru> joejaxx, yes
[06:02] <Pelo> explosiveFerret, yes
[06:02] <joejaxx> niru: are those d-i directives in the preseed file?
[06:02] <Pelo> supercool330, what video card ?
[06:02] <niru> joejaxx, whcih d-i directives
[06:03] <supercool330> yes I know how to get into the grub edit menu that is how I turned debug on, in addition when I turned it off again it gets stuck at the third bar
[06:03] <explosiveFerret> cool thanks Pelo
[06:03] <supercool330> Gota check on video card give me a min
[06:03] <joejaxx> niru: hold on lets go to debian cutom
[06:03] <joejaxx> custom*
[06:03] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: ah - then thats easier.  if you can boot to cmd line then your issue is with config X
[06:03] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: do this `less /var/log/Xorg.0.log`
[06:03] <niru> joejaxx, ok
[06:04] <supercool330> Well the only way I can boot to comand line is with the recovery mode for ubuntu is that ok
[06:05] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: you can grep -i for error
[06:05] <explosiveFerret> he Pelo do you have any suggestions about what VMwhare I should use?
[06:05] <supercool330> grep -i?
[06:06] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: maybe - when you boot to a blank screen, can you do a [ctrl] [alt] [f3]  (for example)?
[06:06] <Pelo> explosiveFerret,  from the add/remove menu, install vmware-server you'll need to get a free registration from the vmware site , you'll get the exact info during the installation
[06:06] <don_pucci> ahhh...much better
[06:06] <supercool330> now I'm having issues booting the recovery thing give me a moment
[06:06] <explosiveFerret> NICE!!!
[06:06] <UberGeekInc> supercool330:  `cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i error`
[06:06] <kevinO> don_pucci: xchat gnome is no good
[06:07] <don_pucci> no kidding
[06:07] <don_pucci> lol
[06:07] <kevinO> :)
[06:07] <Pelo> kevinO,  we know , which is hy most of us use xchat
[06:07] <ozozo> don_pucci, the freedom to use a program and to copy to modify it it and to give it so that you think that it is good, is better than the others
[06:07] <explosiveFerret> ok one last question guys.  I am starting to play with web development and was wondering if anyone could suggest a solid WYSWYG development environment?
[06:07] <pacmanfan> so i'm trying to install gst-plugins, and on ./configure it's saying "checking for gstreamer-0.8 >= 0.8.11.1... configure: error: no GStreamer found"
[06:07] <UberGeekInc> explosiveFerret: IDE - emacs - web framework - rails
[06:07] <pacmanfan> yet i have both gstreamer 0.8 and 0.10 installed...
[06:07] <don_pucci> ozozoz..ok
[06:07] <don_pucci> :|
[06:08] <kevinO> Pelo: OK thank you for the information
[06:08] <Pelo> pacmanfan, go in synaptic remove all the gstreamer 8 and install all the gstreamer0.10
[06:08] <supercool330> It says the directory doesn't exist
[06:09] <pacmanfan> Pelo, i only installed gstreamer 8 AFTER i got the error with just gstreamer 0.10
[06:09] <Pelo> supercool330, what is your video card please and also what architecture of ubuntu are you using ( amd64 , x86, ppc ?)
[06:09] <Pelo> pacmanfan, didyou install ALL the gstreamer0.10 ?
[06:09] <supercool330> amd64 on my amd turion 64 dual core laptop
[06:09] <pacmanfan> i think so...
[06:10] <pacmanfan> i just downloaded the source and did ./configure > make > make install
[06:10] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: lets go back to grub - what is your kernel options?
[06:10] <pacmanfan> oh, and took care of the dependencies
[06:10] <Pelo> pacmanfan, open synaptic do  a search for gstreamer and see
[06:10] <kevinO> night yall
[06:10] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: did you install via the livecd?
[06:10] <don_pucci> Ferret....depends on what browser you are developing for
[06:10] <explosiveFerret>  don_pucci at the moment just firefox
[06:10] <supercool330> Video card is Nvidida GeForce Go 6150
[06:10] <don_pucci> free or pay?
[06:11] <supercool330> I installed with the text cd I am curently downloading the live cd to test that (it will take a little whilte)
[06:11] <Pelo> supercool330, video card ati or nvidia ?   you would do better to install  x86   , amd 64 doesn'T have drivers for all the ati and nvidia cards and some are impossible to get working
[06:11] <explosiveFerret> free, or else I would go dreamweaver
[06:11] <supercool330> DAMN I just deleted teh x86 iso
[06:11] <Pelo> supercool330,  and you won'T be able to use the live cd, you will absolutely need the alternate install one
[06:11] <don_pucci> um...try bluefish
[06:11] <don_pucci> or quanta?
[06:12] <explosiveFerret> don_pucci: thanks, I will look into those
[06:12] <don_pucci> np..good luck
[06:12] <jmak642> ok, i think i'm going to go with this xchat, not the gnome one though
[06:12] <supercool330> I'll try using the x86 and see if that helps again it will take a while to download any other ideas to try while it is working on that
[06:12] <don_pucci> jmak..ya..i just switched too
[06:12] <Pelo> jmak642, just goto add/remove and search for xchat,  click and enjoy
[06:12] <don_pucci> way better
[06:13] <pacmanfan> hmm
[06:13] <explosiveFerret> If I am trying to run windows on linux with VMware... do I need to player and the server or just the player?
[06:13] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: yes, boot to the blank screen, then do the [ctrl] [alt] [f2]  key combination.  do you end up at the command prompt?
[06:13] <Pelo> supercool330, take a walk, go see a movie,  have a late supper,  cuddle with a love one, cuddle with a pet (in the absence of a love one)
[06:13] <pacmanfan> Pelo, it shows a couple of my gst-plugins packages, but doesn't show gstreamer
[06:13] <Pelo> explosiveFerret,  jsut the server
[06:14] <don_pucci> ferret...u can use either...but the server is good...
[06:14] <phixnay> I'm trying to upgrade to gutsy, but upgrade-manager -d doesn't see it :(
[06:14] <supercool330> any opinions on the fastet download miror
[06:14] <explosiveFerret> what is the difference between the player and the server?
[06:14] <dmc68> howdy gang. quick install question. Going to DUAL BOOT XP and Ubuntu. Which do i install first?
[06:14] <tarelerulz> How would you run program that is installed on other Linux partition(ubuntu on small drive )  for say ubuntu on a biger drive
[06:14] <Flannel> phixnay: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy questions, thanks.
[06:14] <Flannel> dmc68: either.  But easier with windows first
[06:14] <Pelo> pacmanfan, did you enable all the repos ? are you sure you have the correct spelling ?
[06:14] <don_pucci> install windows first
[06:14] <don_pucci> waaaaaaaayyyyyyy easier
[06:14] <dmc68> ok thanx flannel that is what i thought
[06:14] <phixnay> Flannel: since I don't have gutsy yet, I think it's a feisty question
[06:14] <UberGeekInc> supercool330: use the netselect command to get the fastest mirror
[06:15] <supercool330> trust me their alocation is what is limiting the downlaod (I have goten speeds north of 2 megs/sec before)
[06:15] <tarelerulz> DMC68  , You can have windows on other second hard drive it you like I did that
[06:15] <Pelo> supercool330,  torrents
[06:15] <pacmanfan> Pelo, yep and yep
[06:15] <don_pucci> dmc68...why would update manager show u a pre-release
[06:15] <Flannel> phixnay: no, it's a gutsy question.  You'll need to make sure you have feisty-proposed enabled, and some other stuff, I dont know the details.  (Its a development version question because that upgrade isn't official yet)
[06:16] <Flannel> don_pucci: Because you pass it the -d argument
[06:16] <Pelo> pacmanfan,  that's all I have
[06:16] <pacmanfan> Pelo, but what i don't get is why gst-plugins doesn't recognize that i have gstreamer installed...
[06:16] <don_pucci> didnt see that..sorry
[06:16] <explosiveFerret> Pelo: what is the main difference between vm player and server?
[06:16] <Pelo> pacmanfan, how are you installing gst-pluggins ?
[06:16] <pacmanfan> the gst-good-plugins and gst-bad-plugins packages recognize it fine... just not gst-plugins
[06:16] <phixnay> Flannel: ok, I see what you meen
[06:16] <phixnay> thanks
[06:16] <pacmanfan> ./configure is where it fails
[06:17] <pacmanfan> trying to build from source
[06:17] <haseo> with time my system has become like more slow, and some times it makes littles stops, how can i mantain my system?? or waht can i do?
[06:17] <Pelo> explosiveFerret, with player you need a ready made virtual machine , with server you can make your own
[06:17] <alex_mayorga> !bluetooth
[06:17] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[06:17] <Pelo> pacmanfan, when buiding from source you very often need to install the -dev package of the dependency
[06:18] <pacmanfan> oooh
[06:18] <Pelo> pacmanfan, I did say "ALL" the gstreamer0.10 packages
[06:18] <pacmanfan> i thought there was only one...
[06:18] <pacmanfan> i just got the latest version from here: http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/src/gstreamer/
[06:18] <Pelo> pacmanfan, there are about a dozen gstreamer0.10 packages
[06:19] <Pelo> pacmanfan, use synaptic
[06:19] <pacmanfan> meh
[06:19] <explosiveFerret> Pelo: ack, it says server is commercial.  Is it free?
[06:20] <Pelo> explosiveFerret, it is free, but you need to register( for free) on the vmware site to get the S/N
[06:20] <BernieMac> !c++
[06:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about c++ - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:20] <explosiveFerret> spiffy
[06:20] <explosiveFerret> thx
[06:20] <abooker> Anyone with a knowledge of init around?
[06:20] <don_pucci> server and player are free
[06:20] <don_pucci> player cannot make vm's
[06:20] <Pelo> abooker,  it is better to ask a specific question, ppl may not consider themselves expert but might know the answer to your question
[06:20] <don_pucci> server has no sound support
[06:21] <pacmanfan> Pelo, in Synaptic i should it show All Available Applications, right?
[06:21] <explosiveFerret> I know some c+++ what do u need?
[06:21] <don_pucci> sorry
[06:21] <abooker> specifically anyone who can tell me how to get it to drop references to / after pivot_root
[06:21] <don_pucci> doing too many things
[06:21] <Pelo> pacmanfan, just use the search feature
[06:21] <pacmanfan> for "gstreamer"
[06:21] <Tsukasa> can someone please help me get ubuntu installed on my raid0 array? it has two ntfs partitions, one of which i want to keep the other i dont care
[06:21] <Pelo> pacmanfan, no for "big mac"
[06:21] <tripppy> when is 7.10 out?
[06:21] <macOSuX> hiiiiiii
[06:22] <don_pucci> october 18th i think
[06:22] <abooker> pelo, I'm a two finger typist, I was typing the second as you replied. :)
[06:22] <macOSuX> is 7.10 gonna have dmraid installer in it?
[06:22] <explosiveFerret> thanks for your help guys. :-D im out for the night while things DL and install
[06:22] <don_pucci> nite
[06:22] <Pelo> abooker, ;-)
[06:23] <arooni_> folks what is the equivalent control + alt + delete functoinality in linux (end a unresponsive app or process)
[06:23] <Pelo> arooni_, sudo killall -9 processname
[06:23] <abooker> pelo, so you gonna give me a pointer for being a good boy and asking specifically?
[06:23] <pacmanfan> Pelo, it finds GStreamer extra plugins, GStreamer ffmpeg video plugin, GStreamer pipeline editor, GStreamer pipeline runner, Movie Player, GStreamer plugin inspector, GStreamer plugins for AAC,etc..., GSTreamer plugins for MMS etc...,   and that's it!
[06:23] <macOSuX> arooni_:  kil procesS_id
[06:23] <arooni_> no GUI for this?
[06:23] <UberGeekInc> arooni_: will reboot on console, this can be disabled of course
[06:23] <Pelo> abooker, I don'T know the answer to your quesiton, sorry
[06:24] <don_pucci> nite all
[06:24] <Pelo> pacmanfan, are  you in synaptic or in add/remove ?
[06:24] <abooker> pelo know where I might look, or have better luck finding someone?
[06:24] <pacmanfan> i thought they were the same :o
[06:24] <macOSuX> is 7.10 gonna have dmraid installer in it?
[06:24] <pacmanfan> my bad!
[06:24] <Pelo> abooker,  you can try searching in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org or since this seems pretty generic you can also try asking in ##linux
[06:25] <abooker> It's not generic.  Telinit -u is how I'd normally do it, but not on 7.10
[06:25] <Pelo> pacmanfan,  both are frontends for apt-get but add/remove only shows applications while synaptic shows all available packages including libs and drivers
[06:25] <abooker> It may be bound up in upstart.
[06:26] <Pelo> abooker,  I mean a generic linux quesiton as in not distro specific
[06:26] <Talcite> hey guys, when did the ubuntu document storage go down?
[06:26] <pacmanfan> sweet
[06:26] <abooker> pelo It's not generic.  Telinit -u is how I'd normally do it, but not on 7.10
[06:27] <daedalus__> when trying to execute the make command for the airbase set of wireless tools, among others, i get this error: /usr/include/linux/wireless.h:941: error: __u32 does not name a type. i read in a forum that it was something related to the libnl libraries, i did an apt-get, everything went fine, but i still cant compile it, getting the same errors.... any ideas?
[06:27] <Pelo> abooker, ic, well I don'T but I'll beleive you, you seem to know more about it then I do ,  the forum then
[06:27] <Talcite> !ssh
[06:27] <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/
[06:27] <abooker> pelo cheers, I'll go have a firtle.
[06:27] <jmak642> arooni_, you can use ctrl + alt + backspace to restart your window manager
[06:27] <Talcite> blah. I need a better SSH tutorial
[06:28] <Pelo> daedalus__, also add the related -dev package if there is one
[06:28] <Talcite> there was a very good one at the UDSF, but it seems to have gone down... does anyone know of another?
[06:28] <MasterShrek> my ssh client always takes forever to connect...only in ubuntu and i dont know why
[06:28] <abooker> what do you need to know talcite?
[06:28] <Talcite> abooker: just how to set it up VERY securely
[06:28] <daedalus__> Pelo: thats what i did, sorry, apt-get install libnl-dev
[06:28] <Talcite> abooker: it has to face outside, so I can't risk anything
[06:29] <Talcite> abooker: and it needs a static address, so the risk is increased even more =/
[06:29] <Pelo> daedalus__, try apt-cache search libnl see if there are other packages that fit that might be usefull
[06:29] <Talcite> abooker: I'm already restricting the IP range and using secure trust relationships, but still
[06:29] <pvl1> i cant get ubuntu to recrod from my microphone
[06:30] <Steil> is there gui tool to setup compiz features in feisty?
[06:30] <abooker> talcite I think you may be fixating. :)  I've run and setup for large and small corporations, sshd facing the world
[06:30] <Poul|Raider> how do i configure so i can use all the buttons on my mouse, the 2 on the side works like the 2 normal(left and right) click atm
[06:30] <daedalus__> Pelo: is there a command to get all the libraries for ubuntu?
[06:30] <Talcite> abooker: hmm and what kind of security did you use?
[06:30] <Pelo> daedalus__,  I see a libnl1-pre6  package that could possibly be what you need
[06:30] <abooker> What specifically are you hoping to setup?
[06:30] <Pelo> daedalus__, sudo apt-cache search lib ?
[06:30] <pacmanfan> Pelo: i installed EVERYTHING to do with gstreamer via Synaptics, but to no avail...
[06:31] <Talcite> abooker: this server will contain all my back ups. Basically an over-glorified file server =P
[06:31] <FusionMan> Are there any DC clients other than dcqt dcgui ?
[06:31] <pacmanfan> i'm trying to install Mesk, and on ./configure it still says configure: error: No Gstreamer audio format plugins found
[06:31] <Pelo> daedalus__,  you might want to try with synaptic , the search fueature might yeald more detailed results
[06:31] <Talcite> abooker: It'll be able to transfer files from inside to an outside location
[06:31] <abooker> ranges, straight /etc/passwd to RSA ID's to knocks and iptables filters
[06:31] <Pelo> pacmanfan, i'm out of options
[06:31] <shaffy> does xubuntu or kubuntu use KDE?
[06:31] <pacmanfan> alrighty.. thanks
[06:31] <Pelo> pacmanfan, did you enable multiverse and backport ?
[06:32] <Talcite> abooker: RSA IDs? how do I set those up? knocks too
[06:32] <Scunizi> shaffy: kubuntu uses KDE
[06:32] <abooker> talcite like sftp?  Where do you see the bigest weakness?
[06:32] <FusionMan> for p2p clients, what are DC+ options?
[06:32] <Pelo> pacmanfan, did you check in synaptic to see if there was a gts-pluggins package ?
[06:32] <shaffy> Scunizi: does xubuntu still use gnome?
[06:32] <LiquidXTC> anyone here fluent with airmon-ng, some of the issues, and could give me a hand??
[06:32] <Talcite> abooker: well it'd have to be sftp for sure. However, even with a few compromised files I don't see too much of a problem, it's really people having root access to the system that I'm most worried about
[06:32] <Scunizi> shaffy, xubuntu uses xfce
[06:32] <KurdishSniper> guys which Dock is the bst to have on ur desk top?
[06:33] <pacmanfan> Pelo, multiverse is enabled, i don't see the backport option
[06:33] <abooker> talcite, not within ssh. :)  security is usually layered, there's nothing in an ssh faq that'll go through that, it's more general security
[06:33] <Pelo> LiquidXTC, it is better to ask a specific quesiton,  ppl who are not experts might know the answer anyway
[06:33] <macOSuX> wd to RSA ID's to knocks and iptables filters
[06:33] <macOSuX> 	<Pelo>	pacmanfan, i'm out of options
[06:33] <macOSuX> 	<shaffy>	does xubuntu or kubuntu use KDE?
[06:33] <Pelo> pacmanfan,  3rd tab
[06:33] <Talcite> abooker: a few other people will have access to the system, so I'm going to make them user accounts and restrict their access to a few folders
[06:33] <macOSuX> 	<pacmanfan>	alrighty.. thanks
[06:33] <macOSuX> 	<Pelo>	pacmanfan, did you enable multiverse and backport ?
[06:33] <macOSuX> 	<Talcite>	abooker: RSA IDs? how do I set those up? knocks too

[06:33] <macOSuX> 	<FusionMan>	for p2p clients, what are DC+ options?
[06:33] <Scunizi> shaffy: do you want gnome?  You can run several WM's on one machine.
[06:33] <macOSuX> 	<Pelo>	pacmanfan, did you check in synaptic to see if there was a gts-pluggins package ?
[06:33] <LiquidXTC> Thanx Pelo.. I will try to make it short
[06:33] <macOSuX> 	<shaffy>	Scunizi: does xubuntu still use gnome?
[06:33] <macOSuX> 	<LiquidXTC>	anyone here fluent with airmon-ng, some of the issues, and could give me a hand??

[06:34] <Talcite> abooker: I see... well where can I read up on security?
[06:34] <MasterShrek> !backports | pacmanfan
[06:34] <ubotu> pacmanfan: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging
[06:34] <macOSuX> polo

[06:35] <FusionMan> pib86 you can get gutsy now to test, but it was buggy when I tried.  ALthough some drivers were updated.

[06:36] <Pelo> pacmanfan, try www.getdeb.net then no warranty
[06:37] <abooker> BTW the root thing, why let someone in as root if you're concerned, make 'em connect as an unpriv user and use your regular tools
[06:37] <pacmanfan> heh
[06:37] <pibe86> ubotu:  wow, i learn something new today
[06:37] <Pelo> pacmanfan,  you are doing it from inside the source folder right ?
[06:37] <pibe86> learnt
[06:37] <pibe86> *
[06:37] <pacmanfan> yep
[06:37] <daedalus__> Pelo: hmmm... i am executing a make command... the last errors are: simple-replay.h:51: warning: long_options defined but not used and this one make: *** [simple-replay.o]  Error 1

[06:38] <LiquidXTC> I am attempting to install Airocrack-ng.. I have installed the latest MadWifi drivers, rebooted, used airmon-ng to stop ath0, checked with iwconfig, everything looked fine, but now that i have "sudo airmon-ng start wifi0" I suddenly have ath1 and ath2 working in monitor mode.. I only have one card.
[06:38] <pibe86> and, do ubuntu developers also work in ubuntu ultimate ?
[06:38] <abooker> talcite, you want dead tree refs or urls?
[06:38] <Pelo> daedalus__, no ./configure first ?
[06:38] <pibe86> Pelo:  ok, let me see
[06:38] <Talcite> abooker: err I'm not quite sure what dead tree refs are =/
[06:38] <Talcite> abooker: I have a lot of reading to do =D
[06:38] <Pelo> daedalus__, just to check  you did install build essential right ?
[06:38] <LiquidXTC> is this normal?? it does not look like the example
[06:38] <yigal> I manually mount my disks.  I am having a problem removing a folder that was used to pmount a usb device. I get the output rm: cannot remove directory `/media/sda': Permission denied
[06:38] <MasterShrek> pibe86, no, ubuntu ultimate is someone else adding to ubuntu
[06:39] <abooker> talcite, sorry, books or online references?
[06:39] <Pelo> pibe86,  sorry taht wasn'T for you , that was for pacmanfan
[06:39] <ganoush> so is there a way to delete ubuntu?
[06:39] <fermatstheorem> hello folks. a strange thing: i installed kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop . now, the display manager is xubuntu and the splash screen is kubuntu! i said "no" when it asked if i wanted kdm
[06:39] <yigal> can someone try and help me?
[06:39] <Pelo> pacmanfan,  check the readme file in the source folder and the instructions on the site
[06:39] <pacmanfan> k
[06:39] <fermatstheorem> ganoush: do you want to remove ubuntu from your computer?
[06:39] <Pelo> ganoush, just remove the partition
[06:39] <pibe86> Pelo:  ok
[06:39] <Talcite> abooker: ahhhhh I see... "dead tree" clever =P. well online would be ideal. I'm not sure if I can buy the books
[06:39] <pibe86> have you ever heard about gubuntu?
[06:39] <ganoush> fermatstheorem: yes
[06:40] <ganoush> the partition is too large
[06:40] <abooker> talcite A true poor sysadmin? :)
[06:40] <ganoush> i only need like 8gb partition
[06:40] <jmak642> !info gubuntu
[06:40] <Talcite> abooker: like all comp sci students =D
[06:40] <fermatstheorem> from your other OS - delete/format the parition
[06:40] <MasterShrek> !gubuntu
[06:40] <ubotu> Package gubuntu does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gubuntu - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:40] <ganoush> but won't that mess the boot manager 'grub' up?
[06:40] <daedalus__> Pelo: yeah, everything has gone all right, i think. i've been following some installation steps i found in a book and also help from guys here, and when i try to build the tools of airbase, the last step for the installation, i get that error. if i try to execute ./configure i get a no such file or directory, because i dont have one, i need to execute ./build.sh....
[06:40] <Pelo> pibe86, gubuntu does not exist asf are are I know,  following the canonical namiing skeem you probably mean regulare ubuntu wich uses gnome
[06:41] <fermatstheorem> ganoush: if your /boot is seperate parition, then no
[06:41] <fermatstheorem>  a strange thing: i installed kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop . now, the display manager is xubuntu and the splash screen is kubuntu! i said "no" when it asked if i wanted kdm
[06:41] <Pelo> daedalus__, that's all I have sorry
[06:41] <pibe86> Pelo:  no, gubuntu is a linux thata google is working on it
[06:41] <jmak642> oh i dislike google
[06:41] <yigal> I manually mount my disks.  I am having a problem removing a folder that was used to pmount a usb device. I get the output rm: cannot remove directory `/media/sda': Permission denied
[06:42] <yigal> can someone help me?
[06:42] <daedalus__> Pelo: ok, dont worry... thanks...
[06:42] <abooker> Ahh so, there's a few schools that post howto type info.  Take a quick peek at <a href="http://www.stanford.edu/group/itss-ccs/security/unix/Linux/">Securing a Linux System</a> and<a href="http://www.puschitz.com/SecuringLinux.shtml"> Linux Security: Securing and Hardening Linux Production Systems (Linux Security Cookbook / HOWTO / Guide)</a> and tell me if they look promissing?
[06:42] <Pelo> pibe86, ah,  I think I've seen somewhere that it was a hoaxs
[06:42] <Pelo> yigal,  sudo rm ...
[06:42] <IcemanV9> yigal: did you use 'sudo'?
[06:42] <yigal> Pelo & IcemanV9: yes, of course :)
[06:42] <||> when i installed xubuntu-desktop on top of an ubuntu install under amd64 none of the config applications would work, so i'm using kubuntu-desktop at the moment.  dunno if it's particular to my setup or what
[06:42] <jmak642> someone should take them to court for ripping off the name if they do make it
[06:43] <pibe86> Pelo: no it is not a hoax
[06:43] <IcemanV9> yigal: unmount first then
[06:43] <shaffy> what do people recommend?  i've been having trouble with gnome, so i am pondering between xfce and kde.  any opinions?
[06:43] <fermatstheorem> shaffy: kde is feature rich
[06:43] <Pelo> yigal,   sudo chmod /path username:username
[06:43] <daedalus__> how can i get all the libraries that ubuntu could possibly use?
[06:43] <yigal> IcemanV9:
[06:43] <yigal> IcemanV9: of course ty :)
[06:43] <IcemanV9> shaffy: you can install both, then decide on which you likes
[06:43] <shaffy> fermatstheorem: feature rich, in what sense?
[06:44] <shaffy> IcemanV9: thanks.  i might just have to do that.
[06:44] <||> yep kde is great, xfce runs somewhat faster depending how many windows you have running
[06:44] <yigal> Pelo: no, I don't want it to have my permissions or anyone other than root
[06:44] <Pelo> daedalus__, throught synaptic probably , there is aprobabaly a category you can use to display jsut the libs
[06:44] <fermatstheorem> shaffy: lots of nifty apps, konqueror file manager can do anything from doing remote ssh to ipod management
[06:44] <||> kde has cleaner integration thoughout its application base from experience
[06:44] <abooker> Err talcite, I need to leave for about 30 mins, does that look right?  If not will you be around long enough for me to continue?
[06:44] <Talcite> abooker: most definitely
[06:44] <Talcite> abooker: send me a pm though, I'll be around
[06:44] <shaffy> fermatstheorem:  thanks for the input.  i appreciate it.  :)
[06:44] <fermatstheorem> shaffy: the overall desktop has a clean integration
[06:44] <Talcite> abooker: thanks =D
[06:44] <fermatstheorem> shaffy: you are welcome
[06:45] <Pelo> yigal,  gksu nautilus   that will give you the filemanager as root you can try deleting from there
[06:45] <abooker> talcite np, but prep for the quiz when I get back. :-D
[06:45] <fermatstheorem> how do i change hte default dm?
[06:45] <Talcite> abooker: sure =P
[06:45] <flaccid> i need to d/l a .deb manually as apt is broken. where can i do this for the main repos?
[06:45] <yigal> Pelo: I have already done it IcemanV9 was right, I simply had to umount the volume.  It gave a terrible kernel problem but it is working, and I wouldn't be caught dead using nautilus - I use only the terminal
[06:46] <yigal> Pelo: :)
[06:46] <discor1> when I install ubuntu it gives me the option to use a proxy for the package manager. However I do not know how to configure apt to use a proxy after I've installed. Can anybody answer ?
[06:46] <Pelo> flaccid,  www.getdeb.net or possibly packages.ubuntu.com
[06:46] <doggo> god morning team
[06:46] <flaccid> Pelo: yes it doesn't link to the deb on packages.ubuntu.com
[06:46] <flaccid> is getdeb.net official?
[06:47] <flaccid> there is no ssh server on getdeb.net
[06:47] <discor1> hello is anyone familiar with the proxy server option on the ubuntu install?
[06:47] <Pelo> flaccid,  no but there are alot of package on it, you can also google for the exact pacakge name , you'll probably find it ,  and you can also browse the install cd
[06:48] <flaccid> i don't have an install cd, no luck on google so far
[06:48] <discor1> to use apt with a proxy instead of port 80
[06:48] <Pelo> discor1, try looking in menu > system > admin> software sources
[06:48] <Pelo> discor1, you can also set a proxy in menu >system > ADMIN > proxy
[06:48] <Pelo> but that one is for general insternet use
[06:48] <flaccid> also packages site does not say the exact .deb filename for the package
[06:49] <Pelo> flaccid, what's the package name ? more or less
[06:49] <flaccid> openssh-server
[06:49] <flaccid> don't know the filename however
[06:50] <Grungebunny> how do you tell what version of flash player you have installed?
[06:51] <Pelo> flaccid, accept the file
[06:51] <flaccid> Pelo: i am behind a corporate firewall, i cannot accept. where did you get that from
[06:51] <flaccid> hmmm it might come through
[06:51] <Pelo> flaccid,  from my install dvd
[06:51] <flaccid> crazy
[06:51] <flaccid> thanks a million
[06:52] <flaccid> is that dapper?
[06:52] <Pelo> feisty
[06:52] <flaccid> ok
[06:52] <flaccid> see if it works anyway
[06:52] <discor1> Pelo: I do not see system > ADMIN > proxy
[06:52] <Pelo> flaccid, it's not the only openssh server pacage , do you need the other ?
[06:52] <discor1> Pelo: the option is not in the sources either
[06:53] <flaccid> what is the other
[06:53] <Pelo> discor1, sorry the proxy thing is in prefs
[06:54] <IcemanV9> Grungebunny: in FX, type about:plugins
[06:55] <BernieMac> anyone know why my VLC player will stop playing video(but the audio continues) if I click the mouse or move the window?
[06:56] <Pelo> flaccid, I think that is all I have that might be related,   debian files might have more but I dont, remember the exact url
[06:56] <flaccid> thanks Pelo i see how i go
[06:56] <discor1> thanks Pelo
[06:57] <discor1> hahah
[06:58] <discor1> sorry if i think of a job ill let you know

[06:58] <flaccid> Pelo: dependency problems because its feisty
[06:58] <Grungebunny> icemanv9 neat little feature, thanks.
[06:58] <flaccid> i really need dapper package :(
[06:59] <IcemanV9> Grungebunny: no problem 
[06:59] <Pelo> flaccid, I hold on , iihave a dapper dvd somehere
[06:59] <Pelo> DevLilJohn,  ask a question and be patient
[06:59] <Talcite> hmm... would ssh over VPN or regular ssh be more secure?
[06:59] <Talcite> and what kind of work is involved in adding a random computer onto a VPN?
[06:59] <flaccid> sweet
[06:59] <DevLilJohn> setting a default program isn't working, it always uses the same program
[07:00] <DevLilJohn> sorry, let me retype that
[07:00] <Pelo> DevLilJohn, which prog ?
[07:00] <DevLilJohn> when i try to set a default program to open .avi files it doesn't work
[07:00] <DevLilJohn> it keeps using the wrong one
[07:00] <Pelo> DevLilJohn, pick an .avi file,  right click , select open with,  select other, select the prog you want
[07:01] <DevLilJohn> i did that but the program i want isn't on the list
[07:01] <DevLilJohn> and im not sure what the arguements are for VLC to work
[07:02] <IcemanV9> flaccid: for dapper, openssh-server 1:4.2p1-7ubuntu3.1 (with security fix)
[07:02] <BernieMac> could having the desktop effects on cause this issue?
[07:02] <Pelo> DevLilJohn, there is a feld at the bottom to select other programs,  jsut type vlc
[07:02] <tank> hello all
[07:02] <lordjodi> hello

[07:02] <swiftnomad> Hello Channel.
[07:02] <Pelo> tank,  this is #ubuntu what do you think
[07:03] <IcemanV9> tank: then, you're in the wrong channel :/
[07:03] <swiftnomad> question: when I run gksudo gedit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf it's nothing but an empty file..
[07:03] <DevLilJohn> ok when i do that it open the program but not with the .avi file
[07:03] <tank> pelo, not sure, im asking cause theres lots of people out there
[07:03] <sexcopter> hi, my friend's business email account is having major trouble with a spammer. is it possible for me, if i set up evolution to pick up it, to delete all messages from that address from the server?
[07:03] <sexcopter> even if it doesn't solve the source of the problem
[07:03] <tank> why the wrong chat ?
[07:04] <tank> actually
[07:04] <Pelo> sexcopter,  you can probably make a rule
[07:04] <tank> that was the wrong questions
[07:04] <tank> anyone in here running on an intel-mac?
[07:05] <nickrud> flaccid: you're looking for dapper's openssl pacakge
[07:05] <nickrud> ?
[07:05] <Pelo> sexcopter, does your freind have access to is account on the server itself, ( for retreival from another location)  you can probably set some tilters there
[07:05] <flaccid> nope openssh
[07:05] <Pelo> flaccid, I'm sending you the file,
[07:06] <nickrud> argh, I typed wrong : but http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=i386&file=pool%2Fmain%2Fo%2Fopenssh%2Fopenssh-server_4.2p1-7ubuntu3.1_i386.deb&md5sum=7e5acb93eb0243e1272f1ffed0145112&arch=i386&type=security
[07:06] <sexcopter> Pelo: it's with shawmail, have called them up and they can do a whole lotta nothing it seems. sigh.
[07:06] <swiftnomad> question: when I run gksudo gedit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf it's nothing but an empty file..
[07:06] <nickrud> flaccid: it's the latest security release from ubuntu for dapper
[07:07] <Stanley> Where the heck is the libapache2-mod-security package :(
[07:07] <Pelo> sexcopter, I can do that myself on by loggin in on my account which is what I was suggesting but if he can'T  rules in  evolutions can take care of it, just  if sender then move to trash
[07:07] <DevLilJohn> swifmad: there should be a reccomened http.config file in there somewhere
[07:07] <IcemanV9> Stanley: in main repo
[07:08] <nickrud> flaccid: and how is your apt broken?
[07:08] <flaccid> thanks guys
[07:08] <tank> anyone in here running on an intel-mac?
[07:08] <flaccid> something like this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=440883&page=2 . its actually a mate
[07:08] <Stanley> IcemanV9: What one?
[07:08] <Pelo> tank, they are few and far between , be patient
[07:08] <codehanger> mourning
[07:09] <tank> i know, just wondering
[07:09] <IcemanV9> Stanley: for the package libapache2-mod-security
[07:09] <DevLilJohn> tank: i whish i was does that count?
[07:09] <Pelo> codeane,  I beleive you mean morning, mourning is after a death
[07:09] <Stanley> IcemanV9: I know, what do I stick in my sources for the main repository>?
[07:09] <DevLilJohn> /name LilJohn
[07:09] <codehanger> :P Pelo
[07:10] <DevLilJohn> /?
[07:10] <Stanley> IcemanV9: I have the main restricted
[07:10] <nickrud> flaccid: you can change your cache size, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=233417 has instructions
[07:10] <swiftnomad> nickrud, can I ask you a question??
[07:10] <nickrud> swiftnomad: sure
[07:10] <flaccid> thanks i'll check it out
[07:10] <tank> ?? lol
[07:10] <nickrud> my knowledge is narrow but shallow
[07:10] <swiftnomad> when I run gksudo gedit /etc/apache2/httpd.conf it's nothing but an empty file.
[07:10] <IcemanV9> Stanley: it should be enabled already ... apt-cache search libapache2-mod-security
[07:10] <Stanley> IcemanV9: That is what I am saying, I cannot find it.
[07:10] <Stanley> IcemanV9: That's why I asked, where is it.
[07:11] <Pelo> Stanley, how are you searching ?
[07:12] <Stanley> Pelo: sudo apt-cache search libapache2 | grep security
[07:12] <DevLilJohn> swiftnomad: in the apache directory there should be a version of the http.config (called something slightly different) with recommened settings
[07:12] <Pelo> Stanley, how about just  sudo apt-cache search libapache
[07:12] <IcemanV9> Stanley: that's why i am telling you it is in the main repo ... you may want to try a different server
[07:12] <nickrud> swiftnomad: yes, debian/ubuntu uses a conf.d system for configuring apache. It uses mods-enabled (linked to chunks in mods-available) and sites-enabled (likewise) to do basic setup. And conf.d is used by apps to set their own needs.
[07:13] <Stanley> Pelo: It is not in there.
[07:13] <nickrud> swiftnomad: so instead of a single http.conf, it's broken into managable sizes. the idea is to allow other packages to modify apache's behavior without modifying any other packages files
[07:14] <daedalus__> Pelo: sorry to bother you, do you know what does linux-headers maps to ubuntu? they told me something about kernel-devel but its not working....
[07:14] <Pelo> Stanley,  are you sure there is such a package ?
[07:14] <IcemanV9> fwiw, from my search, it said "libapache2-mod-security - Tighten web applications security for Apache 2.x"
[07:15] <Pelo> daedalus__, I don'T know sorry kernel stuff is way over my head
[07:15] <daedalus__> Pelo: dont worry, thanks
[07:15] <Stanley> Pelo: I am 100% sure there is a package with that name, but obviously not in any of the default respositorys
[07:15] <Pelo> Stanley, then I suggest you try on google
[07:15] <daedalus__> does anybody here can help me with that, what does linux-headers maps for ubuntu?
[07:15] <tasmaniac> not sure if this is an ubuntu java or permission prob. I have managed to get ubuntu to join the win2k domain but if I try to run a jar file off the server it refuses to run but run it locally it does run?
[07:15] <Stanley> Pelo: You don't think I am already googling/
[07:15] <nickrud> swiftnomad: do   ls -l /etc/apache2/mods-enabled   .  You'll see that default is a link to a file in sites-available. If you look at that file, you'll see that it defines some basic directories, just like http.conf would
[07:16] <Pelo> Stanley, you'd be amazed at the kind of stuff ppl overlook ;-)
[07:17] <swiftnomad> you guys aree so smart.

[07:21] <Pelo> Stanley,what'S your architecture ?
[07:22] <daedalus__> how can i get the linux headers for ubuntu?
[07:22] <Stanley> For what?
[07:22] <nickrud> daedalus__: sudo aptitude install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[07:22] <Pelo> Stanley,  of your os , amd64, x86, ppc ?
[07:22] <Stanley> 64
[07:23] <nickrud> daedalus__: the uname thingy will make sure you get them for your running kernel
[07:24] <Pelo> Stanley, dl this  http://bytekeeper.as28747.net/debian-amd64/debian/pool/main/liba/libapache-mod-security/libapache2-mod-security_1.8.7-1_amd64.deb
[07:24] <Pelo> Stanley, do you know how to install a deb file from the commmand line ?
[07:24] <nickrud> wow, a sarge machine!
[07:25] <Stanley> Pelo: Yes
[07:25] <Pelo> k
[07:25] <GNine> ok.. so i installed this p2p software from website. i want to uninstall it. but, it wont show up in synaptic or thru add/remove option.  can i just delete its installation folder to get rid of it?
[07:25] <Pelo> GNine,  how did you install it ?
[07:26] <GNine> direct download from the website provider
[07:26] <Pelo> GNine, was the file ending ?
[07:27] <GNine> program was installed succesfully .. but i decided its not to my liking..
[07:27] <nickrud> Stanley: you plan on using this on an ubuntu machine?
[07:27] <Stanley> Pelo: I am getting some dependency errors. Says it depends on apache2-common. I have installed apache2.2-common
[07:27] <Pelo> GNine, what's the program name ?
[07:27] <GNine> azureus
[07:27] <Stanley> nickrud: Yes, why?
[07:27] <daedalus__> nickrud: there must be linux headers for the 2.60.20-15 kernel, right?
[07:28] <Pelo> Stanley,  still got thefirst link i gave you ?  search on that site
[07:28] <Stanley> Why would I install apache2-common if I have apache2.2-common?
[07:28] <Pelo> GNine, yeah,  delete the install folder,  and you could have just installed azureus from the repos , it's included
[07:28] <nickrud> probably won't work, binary compatibility and all that. It wouldn't work with dapper, I doubt highly it will work with feisty. If you really want it, you'd probably have to compile it.
[07:29] <Stanley> nickrud: Talking to me?
[07:29] <narg> What environment variable does a program use to search for .so's?
[07:29] <Pelo> Stanley,  I don't know,  and I give up , thnks
[07:29] <nickrud> Stanley: it's an old package , and yes
[07:29] <GNine> synaptic has it in its package list .. but it doesnt show as an already installed program..  even tho it is installed..
[07:29] <daedalus__> nickrud: it is likely that i'll find linux headers for kernel 2.6.10-15 right?
[07:29] <GNine> i just wanted a second opinion.. dont want my JRE messed up cuz of it
[07:30] <nickrud> daedalus__: yes, just using that command should bring them in
[07:30] <Pelo> GNine,  because it wasn'T installed using one of the ways synaptic handles files , that,s why
[07:30] <GNine> 10-4
[07:30] <daedalus__> nickrud: ok, thanks man, you have been of great assistance to me!
[07:30] <nickrud> daedalus__: yw :0
[07:30] <daedalus__> later to all!
[07:31] <daedalus__> good luck!
[07:31] <nickrud> Stanley: it's not available from the latest debian either, which is probably why it's not in ubuntu
[07:31] <PussyPirate> DCC SEND "startkeylogger" 0 0 0
[07:31] <Pelo> that still works ?
[07:32] <nickrud> I'm still alive
[07:32] <flaccid> ok i fixed my mates apt
[07:33] <sexcopter> Pelo: are you still there? I have evolution set up now with a rule. it's a pop server, and i don't want to untick the "leave messages on server" option for obvious reasons, but i want the messages from this one address to be actually deleted off the server. is this possible?
[07:33] <flaccid> via ssh server so all good thanks for help Pelo
[07:33] <nickrud> narg: it uses ld.so.cache to track libraries
[07:33] <Pelo> sexcopter, I wouldn'T know sorry
[07:34] <Pelo> sexcopter, but I donT thnk it is possible,  it'S one or the other
[07:34] <Venko> http://pastebin.com/m374fd1d2 <-- Suggestions?
[07:34] <ITwist> im completely new to linux and im trying to figure out how to download adobe flash player, could someone please help me?
[07:34] <Pelo> Venko, how about a qustion not just a link
[07:34] <Pelo> ITwist,  no need to dl
[07:34] <nalioth> hi nickrud
[07:34] <Pelo> !flash | ITwist
[07:34] <ubotu> ITwist: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[07:34] <Venko> Well, it's a big question with description in it.
[07:34] <nickrud> hey nalioth working late I see
[07:34] <dijungal> hey..
[07:35] <nickrud> Venko: damn small linux
[07:35] <nalioth> nickrud: working? never
[07:35] <sexcopter> Pelo: Hmmm, so do you think it's possible to just download message headers rather than download the messages?
[07:35] <Venko> Mmmk. I'll suggest that he use that
[07:35] <nickrud> heh. Answer I expect from you ;)
[07:35] <Pelo> sexcopter, sorry that,s a bit over my head at this point Ijust know the basic stuff
[07:36] <nickrud> see you Pelo
[07:36] <GNine> i still got a post-traumatic windows disorder to deal with here.   i need my pills... brb
[07:36] <Pelo> g'night folks
[07:36] <sexcopter> Pelo: ok, thanks anyway
[07:36] <dijungal> when is  the next ubuntu desktop release.... and what's the name?
[07:36] <Krimpet> does anyone know how to get GNU screen to recognize mouse clicks from xterm/gpm?
[07:36] <GNine> !gutsy
[07:36] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[07:37] <slimjimflim> can anyone tell me the purpose of the anachron process?
[07:37] <Krimpet> screen is awesome, but its utility is extremely limited for me because it doesn't seem to let me use the mouse in stuff like links and mc
[07:38] <abooker> Anyone know how to get init to drop open files on / after pivot_root?
[07:39] <KMFDMsux> I just have one quick question about Ubuntu (for now) ;)  -  Would it be possible to have Windows XP on one hard disk and Ubuntu on another somehow? :)
[07:39] <abooker> KMFDMsux Yes
[07:39] <nickrud> KMFDMsux: a very common choice, actually
[07:39] <Myrtti> KMFDMsux: install XP first
[07:39] <nickrud> KMFDMsux: just be sure to have windows on the first one, for simplicty
[07:40] <GNine> there are issues on sata drives though...
[07:40] <swiftnomad> do you need a virus scanner for linux??
[07:40] <Myrtti> XP has the tendency of overwriting mbr
[07:40] <Myrtti> swiftnomad: not especially, no
[07:40] <roshan> Hi ALL. I have made a few partition changes and I want them to mount automatically in Ubuntu. How can you update 'fstab'??
[07:40] <Myrtti> swiftnomad: unless you're running an email server
[07:40] <intan> hai leh knlan ga
[07:40] <Myrtti> !id | intan
[07:40] <ubotu> intan: join ke #ubuntu-id untuk membahas ubuntu dalam bahasa Indonesia
[07:40] <FunnyLookinHat> roshan, you can edit the fstab file with this command in a console:     sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[07:40] <swiftnomad> which I'm not. Thank's Myrtti.
[07:40] <KMFDMsux> I've been watching screencasts about Ubuntu all night and I REALLY want to use Ubuntu for my day-to-day stuff and have Windows as a fallback for sure-fire use of my portable MP3 player, external hard drive, digital camera, etc...
[07:41] <Myrtti> KMFDMsux: which mp3-player?
[07:41] <Myrtti> KMFDMsux: I'm pretty sure the hard drive and digital camera will work A-OK in Ubuntu
[07:41] <KMFDMsux> Creative Zen Xtra
[07:41] <roshan> FunnyLookinHat, I know about that. But I dunno the details of the drives/partitions. Can't I automatically update 'fstab'??
[07:41] <admin8tor> my digicam and HDDs work better in Ubuntu than they do in windows.
[07:41] <GNine> the only thing i would suggest windows for is to play games.. there are alternatives for linux purists tho..
[07:41] <FunnyLookinHat> roshan, As far as I know...  nope.   Try googling around for a good fstab tutorial.
[07:42] <user__> hai
[07:42] <user__> gi naps
[07:42] <KMFDMsux> Myrtti I'm sure they'd probably work too, but I'd REALLY hate to be wrong. ;)
[07:42] <Myrtti> KMFDMsux: it should work in Ubuntu with gnomad2 apparently
[07:42] <d-media> Does any one have a personal account through the college or personal webpages?
[07:42] <roshan> FunnyLookinHat, tried that too. came across something called 'fstab-sync' but i cant run that command from the terminal :(
[07:43] <Myrtti> KMFDMsux: but yeah, having a dualboot is still ok
[07:43] <FunnyLookinHat> roshan, sorry then.  I'm not aware of any automatic configuration tool.  : (
[07:43] <solid_liq> problems dist-upgrading from dapper to edgy
[07:43] <roshan> FunnyLookinHat, ok.. thanks
[07:43] <solid_liq> it keeps bombing out on cupsys
[07:43] <solid_liq> any ideas how to fix it?
[07:44] <KMFDMsux> I appreciate the help guys. :)  I'm definitely doing it, I'll order a nice huge hard drive and dual-boot it.  How hard would that be to switch between Windows & Linux if they existed on different HDs?  I've only ever partitioned a single drive when I tried a Red Hat distro about 5 years ago.
[07:44] <Alari> I'm having a weird issue with GRUB. When I put in a boot CD that also uses GRUB, it loads the GRUB menu from the hard drive instead.
[07:45] <abooker> KMFDMsux d/l the CD and run it live for a while
[07:45] <Myrtti> KMFDMsux: just a question of booting the computer and picking the OS of choice right after booting
[07:45] <solid_liq> Alari: check your bios boot order
[07:45] <admin8tor> boot order set in BIOA?
[07:45] <admin8tor> S
[07:45] <Myrtti> admin8tor: no
[07:45] <watercooler> ffs.. who said i wanted to join the ubuntu server? lol
[07:46] <roshan> Hi ALL. I have made a few partition changes and I want them to mount automatically in Ubuntu. How can you update 'fstab' automatically??
[07:46] <KMFDMsux> Myrtii: Would that require a swap partition on the main C: drive then?
[07:46] <watercooler> .leave
[07:46] <Alari> I checked BIOS boot settings, yes. This happens with any boot CD that uses GRUB
[07:46] <KMFDMsux> abooker: I've run the LIve CD and it's just teasing me to install it. :P
[07:46] <solid_liq> roshan: vim /etc/fstab
[07:46] <Myrtti> KMFDMsux: you might consider making a partition that both os's can use without mixing things up too much
[07:46] <abooker> How big's your windows install?
[07:47] <solid_liq> problems dist-upgrading from dapper to edgy, it keeps boming on cupsys, and I can't seem to apt-get -f install  it, any ideas?
[07:47] <Myrtti> KMFDMsux: and the partition type according to the OS most used
[07:47] <abooker> KMFDMsux I've installed multiple times by squeezing the windows partition a bit
[07:47] <roshan> solid_liq, tried that.. but i dont know the details of the drives.. automatic updation of fstab possible???
[07:47] <Myrtti> KMFDMsux: if you use windows more, take NTFS, if Linux, ext3
[07:47] <solid_liq> roshan: not that I know of, use what's there as a template
[07:48] <KMFDMsux> How would that work on separate hard disks, though?  What would I need to do to be able to boot from one OS to the other?
[07:48] <roshan> solid_liq, its not mounting if i change there :(
[07:48] <bart_> hello all

[07:49] <Myrtti> KMFDMsux: Linux installation detects that you've got Windows installed and suggests that it'll make dual boot for you

[07:58] <squarebottle> Hey. I'm a little bit concerned about... Well, it's saying that my CPU's temperature is 90 degrees celsius right now. The range it is staying inside of is 89-93 degrees, it seems. This is just at the BIOs little "PC Health Status" page. I didn't want to install an OS until I got to hear what you all thought about that.
[07:59] <AeroStick> alari: as i'm logging in to ubuntu, it gives an error like there's something ignored in my $home/.dmrc
[07:59] <AeroStick> it says check the /var/log/syslog folder
[07:59] <squarebottle> This isn't the first computer I've built, but... aren't the Core 2 Duo's supposed to run fairly cool?
[08:00] <squarebottle> And isn't 90 degrees pretty hot?
[08:00] <AeroStick> but i can't edit anything with neither sudo, nor i can't login as root with my own passwords

[08:13] <Jaggz1> what's it mean "supported until 2008" ?  I'm a bit worried because I still have Hoary Hedgehog on my laptop from 2.5 years ago, and there are no repositories of .deb packages available for it anymore
[08:13] <Jaggz1> and that sucks
[08:14] <Jaggz1> and now I want to install the server and I'm worried that they'll just drop the ball on me one day
[08:14] <gusto5> hello
[08:14] <dotjay>  IAm using ubuntu 6.06 LTS  i downloaded the tbz of vmware 6 workstation can anybody help in setting it up
[08:14] <swiftnomad> I have this program called: splash theme and it works fine.. I cannot remember where I got it.

[08:26] <Doitle> I have a really... seems kinda pointless ubuntu question. On my desktop here I have Keep Aligned checked. However my icons... they aren't lined up. It doesn't seem to do anything if I enable keep aligned or turn it off... Is that feature not working or something?

[08:27] <|brad|> Guest15457, ask in channel. someone might have the same question as you
[08:27] <Jaggz1> apt-get doesn't have a hoary repository anymore anyway
[08:27] <supercool330> I think the monitor settings are wrong I am reading that post like at the top of this page
[08:27] <GNine> just kidding.. sudo gives you super user .. powers

[08:32] <|brad|> bart_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager
[08:32] <Longfellow> Hello All
[08:32] <|brad|> bart_, or ask in #ubuntu-effects
[08:32] <fatcatmatt> i got a question.  right after i log in, the background is a certain color, then it shows my desktop.  how do i change that background
[08:32] <bart_> brad, ok
[08:32] <Flannel> Reaper: This is after the install (and subsequent reboot?) or while you're trying to boot the liveCD?
[08:32] <|brad|> BMT, run lspci and see what video card you have
[08:33] <Longfellow> Does anyone know an easy way to run Ubuntu with VMware on Windows Vista?
[08:33] <GNine> desktop effects are offtopic in this channel
[08:33] <GNine> just so you know
[08:33] <Longfellow> I have the Ubuntu install CD 7.04
[08:33] <UDZGuru> is there a way to install ubuntu so that it installs the boot loader onto a floppy disk and doesn't touch the master boot record?
[08:33] <BMT> is there a way to 'pipe' lspci to a text file ?
[08:33] <Longfellow> Does anyone know an easy way to run Ubuntu with VMware on Windows Vista?
[08:33] <Flannel> UDZGuru: Alternate CD will allow you to install no bootloader at all
[08:33] <fatcatmatt> longfellow: i would run vista inside ubuntu, not ubuntu inside vista.  i tried, ran like crap, and i have a powerful laptop
[08:33] <slimjimflim> can someone tell me if it's safe to disable rsync?
[08:33] <Flannel> BMT: lspci > file.txt
[08:33] <|brad|> lspci > lspci.txt
[08:33] <BMT> thanks
[08:34] <Longfellow> I have a pretty fast computer so im not worried about that
[08:34] <Reaper> flannel - emm, it loads a bunch of things on a black screen then goes to a funky screen and says there was some problem and would i like to diagnose it
[08:34] <fatcatmatt> it should be easy to setup, longfellow
[08:34] <Longfellow> I want to keep Vista as my primary OS and Ubuntu through VMWare
[08:34] <fatcatmatt> vista blows tho, longfellow
[08:34] <Flannel> Reaper: This is the first boot after you put the CD in, right?
[08:34] <UDZGuru> i read in the wiki about the alternate installation. but there was no mention of controlling the installation of a bootloader. that's why i'm asking
[08:34] <Longfellow> Whats the best way to install it through VMWare though?
[08:34] <Flannel> UDZGuru: Yes, the alt CD does.
[08:34] <Longfellow> im cant seem to figure it out
[08:34] <GNine> the funky screen is the fix the xserver cue
[08:35] <Reaper> flannel - yea
[08:35] <fatcatmatt> standard, longfellow
[08:35] <BMT> my Display controller is : Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller
[08:35] <fatcatmatt> .iso it up and do it that way, longfellow
[08:35] <Longfellow> the only options I have in VMware is Open and Download
[08:35] <Longfellow> ok
[08:35] <fatcatmatt> do open then
[08:35] <rockets> You know what would kick butt, a way to make totem-gstreamer fall back to totem-xine when it cant play something, or vice versa
[08:35] <Longfellow> know any good programs to create ISOs?
[08:35] <fatcatmatt> yeah, magiciso
[08:35] <rockets> Longfellow, acetoneiso
[08:35] <Longfellow> kk ty
[08:35] <astro76> Longfellow, go to easyvmx.com and create an empty virtual machine, open with vmware player, and install ubuntu into it
[08:36] <swiftnomad> I'd never use windows again. Im not a gamer so I have no reason to dual boot. linux ftw
[08:36] <BMT>  my Display controller is : Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller
[08:36] <progek> anyone know where I can find a older version of frostwire? I'm looking for the 4.13.1 branch
[08:36] <Flannel> Reaper: from what it looks like, you're having graphics card problems.  Try installing with the alternate CD, after installation, you'll be able to wrestle with your xorg settings to get it to work.
[08:36] <GNine> thats funny. i got the gstreamer and gxine working together
[08:36] <Longfellow> yeah im a big gamer, so windows for me, but i'd like to get ubuntu in VMware
[08:36] <Reaper> here let me show you where i type from in the black window
[08:36] <Reaper> here
[08:36] <Reaper>                                  here
[08:37] <Reaper>                                                                    here
[08:37] <Reaper>                                                                                                        here
[08:37] <Reaper>               here
[08:37] <Reaper>                                                    here
[08:37] <Flannel> Reaper: stop that.
[08:37] <logicalbomb> is there anyway to use custom start up processes?
[08:37] <BMT> can anyone help me with this :  my Display controller is : Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller
[08:37] <GNine> lol
[08:37] <fatcatmatt> haha reaper
[08:37] <Reaper> flannel get what i'm saying?
[08:37] <BMT> trying to get past the 1024x768 screen res
[08:37] <Flannel> Reaper: What on earth are you even talking about?  No, I dont
[08:37] <|brad|> BMT, what driver are you currently using
[08:37] <Myrtti> what on earth
[08:37] <|brad|> BMT, did you look at that link i sent you?
[08:37] <Reaper> but instead of saying "here" it says ubuntu@ubuntu~$
[08:37] <GNine> thats a nice res, bmt
[08:38] <BMT> yes i am following that
[08:38] <logicalbomb> if I wanted gdesklets to load on start up how would I get that to happen?
[08:38] <Flannel> Reaper: It gives you the prompt over and over again?
[08:38] <logicalbomb> and what causes slow start up?
[08:38] <serif> i have ubuntu 7.04 on my asus A6M series laptop.howto integrated usb webcab?
[08:38] <rockets> Anybody know how I can compile something into a deb?
[08:38] <BMT> i have a termainl window with a blue screen asking for the driver
[08:38] <BMT> i don't know what one to pic
[08:38] <Flannel> !checkinstall | rockets
[08:38] <ubotu> rockets: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[08:38] <swiftnomad> pick
[08:38] <serif> webcam?
[08:38] <|brad|> what are you currently using? do you know
[08:38] <BMT> what driver ?
[08:38] <rockets> Flannel, hmm, is it hard to use
[08:38] <BMT> i don't know
[08:38] <Reaper> flannel - whenever i hit enter
[08:39] <BMT> i did a lspci to tell me what type of video i have on this gateway laptop
[08:39] <rockets> so i do checkinstall -D make install?
[08:39] <Flannel> rockets: no, just like normal compiling, more or less.  That page has all the instructions.
[08:39] <GNine> 1024x768 is good for web browsing and reading and stuff.. anything higher and youll have to use glasses to read your screen
[08:39] <Flannel> Reaper: That is odd.  No idea what's causing that.  But again, alt CD will allow you to install, and then you can wrestle with getting X up afterwards.
[08:39] <Jaggz1> anyone use Ubuntu server?
[08:39] <BMT> i want highere than 1024x768
[08:39] <Reaper> flannel - how do i use this alternate cd?
[08:40] <console-> i run 1280x1024
[08:40] <serif> any help to my webcam ?
[08:40] <|brad|> BMT, cd into /etc/x11/ then run cat xorg.conf | grep -i driver
[08:40] <Flannel> Reaper: just like the otehr CD, only instead of booting to a liveCD, it'll boot straight to the installer.  The alternate CD is available at the same place you got the Desktop CD
[08:40] <upgrayedd> <-- webcamless also.. think i need to recompile kernel. but dont feel like it.
[08:40] <GNine> that a logical resolution right there.. but on 19inches?   console-?
[08:41] <logicalbomb> can anyone tell me how to utilize the linux-686 kernel
[08:41] <logicalbomb> I did the sudo apt-get install linux-686
[08:41] <upgrayedd> can anybody tell me why g3d isnt building into /usr/local/
[08:41] <logicalbomb> but I want to make sure it's the one being used
[08:42] <d-media> any one know where to get free webpages through colleges like personal web space or does anyone have account through one?
[08:42] <Reaper> flannel - should i use 6.06 or 7.04
[08:42] <fatcatmatt> reaper: 7.04
[08:42] <Reaper> flannel - will this get rid of whatevers on my comp now?
[08:43] <Flannel> Reaper: You'll be able to partition however you'd like.  Whether thats erasing the whole drive, or not
[08:43] <astro76> logicalbomb, there is no more linux-686 (the package exists for upgrades), Ubuntu just uses generic now
[08:43] <BMT> i am currently using i810
[08:43] <BMT> that is amazing to me
[08:43] <Reaper> flannel - when should i partition, before or after installing?
[08:43] <BMT> learning a lot tonight
[08:43] <supercool330> OK here is the error I'm getting Failed to start the X server. Then I also get Microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load failed.
[08:43] <crackintosh_> is there a linux utility for batch renaming filenames?
[08:43] <GNine> i810 worked fine for me too
[08:43] <Reaper> flannel - and 6.06 or 7.04
[08:44] <logicalbomb> astro76:  So I should remove it because it doesn't matter?  Because I installed it and restarted
[08:44] <BMT> but GNine using this i810 i can't get no high than 1024x768
[08:44] <abhibera> Which is less hassle free ATI or Nvidia? I am planning to buy a Vostro. I was choosing b/w the 1000 and 1400 series. The 1000 comes with Athlon 64 X2 and a 256MB ATI Radeon X1150. The 1400 has Core2Duo with an option of Intel X3100 or NVidia 8400GS 128MB. so what should i pick for ubuntu? i'm looking at value for money. the laptop will not be used for gaming. only will be used for development purposes.
[08:44] <faileas> Nvidia
[08:44] <GNine> can your monitor physically support any higher than that
[08:44] <faileas> uually
[08:44] <Flannel> Reaper: Partition before installation if you can.  Don't create the new partitions, just create freespace.  Create the linux partitions in the installer itself.
[08:45] <faileas> *Usually
[08:45] <|brad|> BMT, sudo cat xorg.conf | grep -i defaultdepth
[08:45] <Flannel> Reaper: as for 6.06 or 7.04, that's up to you.  You'll probably want 7.04 though.
[08:45] <|brad|> BMT, what does that say? 24?
[08:45] <Reaper> ok
[08:45] <BMT> @GNine...i would expect it would
[08:45] <BMT> a two processor laptop with a ultrabright wisescreen
[08:45] <astro76> logicalbomb, yes you can remove it
[08:45] <BMT> and 2 gigs of ram
[08:45] <BMT> why wouldn't it ?
[08:45] <astro76> logicalbomb, there's basically nothing in it
[08:45] <BernieMac> reaper you may have to use partition magic or gpart
[08:45] <rockets> nvr mind the package i want to install has a make uninstall
[08:45] <logicalbomb> astro76:  what about custom start up processes?  Can I launch programs on start up?
[08:46] <Kool-Aid> Oh goodie
[08:46] <BMT> to brad....what is 24 ?
[08:46] <Kool-Aid> I've been unbanned!
[08:46] <astro76> !boot | logicalbomb
[08:46] <BernieMac> the ubuntu partitioner would not work for me, only gpart would
[08:46] <ubotu> logicalbomb: 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
[08:46] <abhibera> faileas: was that a response for me?
[08:46] <|brad|> BMT, sudo cat xorg.conf | grep -i defaultdepth  <--- did you run that command?
[08:46] <upgrayedd> crackintosh_ try something like python import os import glop files = glop.glop *.txt for each in files os"instructions of rename"
[08:46] <BMT> oh......you must be talking about 1024x768
[08:46] <BMT> yes i did @ brad
[08:46] <GNine> yeah.. it would.. so.. i guess you should try xserver to go 32 bit and adjust screen resolution.. i still like 24bit
[08:46] <|brad|> ok
[08:46] <logicalbomb> I am using bum but it's a GUI ap that doesn't allow me to add custom startups
[08:46] <BMT> but wait no i didn't hold on
[08:46] <|brad|> ok
[08:46] <nanonyme> BMT, that's a bad way to talk to people. it might not hilight in a client
[08:47] <crackintosh_> haha upgrayedd
[08:47] <faileas> abhibera: yeah
[08:47] <nanonyme> use the nick as the first word
[08:47] <upgrayedd> has anyone here installed http://g3d-cpp.sourceforge.net/ ?
[08:47] <BMT> oh ok..thanks nanonyme
[08:47] <faileas> abhibera: though, ATI might be opening up specs soon
[08:47] <BMT> by no means do i want to disrespect anyone on here
[08:47] <abhibera> faileas: hmmmm :|
[08:47] <BMT> i am enjoying myself too much
[08:47] <abhibera> faileas: but which will give me less hassle?
[08:48] <nanonyme> BMT, it's not that, some people just might not notice what you say when they're not hilighted on this active a channel
[08:48] <faileas> abhibera: nvidia is 2 clicks to install drivers pretty much
[08:48] <plowdawg> does anyoe here use the gaim-latex plugin?
[08:48] <rockets> whats a good xine frontend other then totem or gxine
[08:48] <rockets> and kaffeine
[08:49] <upgrayedd> it compiles fine, but after           ./buildg3d install /usr/local           nothing is located in that directory
[08:49] <BMT> ok
[08:49] <abhibera> faileas: is there any point in saving a couple of hundred dollars and going in for the Dell Vostro 1000?
[08:49] <GNine> those ARE the good ones
[08:49] <GNine> lol
[08:49] <abhibera> faileas: it has an AMD Athlon X2 and ATI 256 X1150
[08:49] <Longfellow> Anyone know any free programs to create isos in windows?
[08:49] <abhibera> faileas: i plan to run only Ubuntu on it NO WINDOZE
[08:49] <faileas> abhiberaL i am not a fan of dells. IBM all the way for me ;p
[08:50] <faileas> Longfellow: #windows would be the place to aks that
[08:50] <faileas> ;p
[08:50] <Longfellow> Ok, sorry abotu that
[08:50] <|brad|> faileas, thinkpads are awesome
[08:50] <upgrayedd> i bought the xeon duo @ 1.8 and OC to 3.0ghz
[08:50] <rockets> GNine, yeah but i need totem-gstreamer, kaffeine sucks horribly, and so does gxine
[08:50] <rockets> im going to try codine
[08:50] <|brad|> rockets, vlc?
[08:50] <faileas> Longfellow: answer though, is imgburn
[08:50] <rockets> |brad|, thats not a vlc frontend
[08:50] <rockets> |brad|, xine frontend rather
[08:50] <abhibera> faileas: ibm is freakin expensive here. so i have to opt for a dell. it's cheaper for u guys in US
[08:50] <GNine> gxine works.. it might not have a sweet looking interface but it does the job
[08:50] <|brad|> why does it have to be xine?
[08:50] <faileas> i'm not in US
[08:51] <faileas> i'm in singapore. have had my thinkpad for 4 years or so
[08:51] <rockets> |brad|, it doesnt, i already have totem-gstreamer and vlc, i like to have xine as well because theres always at least one thing that i can only get one of the three to play
[08:51] <|brad|> ah
[08:51] <upgrayedd> <--- hopeless
[08:51] <rockets> I prefer xine, and i would use totem-xine if i could have totem-gstreamer side by side
[08:52] <rockets> the reason i wont use gxine is because it has a horrible playlist functionality
[08:52] <rockets> VLC and Totem have great playlist funtionality
[08:52] <GNine> tru
[08:52] <Syonyde> Hello
[08:52] <rockets> and by great, i mean i can drag folders on to it, not just files
[08:53] <rockets> ah and codeine has NO playlist functionality. fantastic.
[08:53] <BMT> i am going to assume after going thru setting up the driver using i128....all i have to is restart right ?
[08:53] <rockets> kaffeine it is.
[08:53] <GNine> good luck
[08:53] <BMT> thanks
[08:53] <|brad|> just restart x
[08:53] <GNine> kaffeine didnt like me
[08:53] <|brad|> you dont have to reboot the whole machine
[08:53] <rockets> Ok . . .kaffeine-gstreamer  . . . what the hell . . .
[08:53] <rockets> that makes ZERO sense.
[08:53] <BMT> too late ...lol
[08:54] <rockets> might as well have a totem-artsd plugin
[08:54] <upgrayedd> i wish we had a good gtk+ video & sound player.
[08:54] <|brad|> isnt i810 the driver you are supposed to use tho?
[08:54] <BMT> i ran into a problem guys
[08:54] <upgrayedd> me 2! ;P
[08:54] <BMT> almost looks like the BSOD from windoze
[08:54] <rockets> Why does kaffeine-gstreamer require kaffeine-xine
[08:55] <|brad|> BMT, does it say something about no screens found?
[08:55] <BMT> no
[08:55] <Poul|Raider> anyone who are good at sound devices. i had my sound working shortly but after a reboot i just cant get it playing again.
[08:55] <BMT> the gui is no disabled
[08:55] <|brad|> !alsa
[08:55] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[08:55] <BMT> and i am at a command prompt
[08:55] <HELPMEEEEEE> OMG!
[08:55] <Poul|Raider> useing pcm output from a onboard sound carc
[08:55] <HELPMEEEEEE> I CANT FIGURE THIS OUT
[08:55] <Poul|Raider> card
[08:56] <HELPMEEEEEE> HOW DO I GET MS OFFICE INSTALLED?!
[08:56] <|brad|> HELPMEEEEEE, lose the caps
[08:56] <faileas> !caps > HELPMEEEEEE
[08:56] <Poul|Raider> i got alsa selected
[08:56] <HELPMEEEEEE> this staroffice thing is a piece of crap
[08:56] <|brad|> then dont use it
[08:56] <HELPMEEEEEE> im running live cd? and i need to install office
[08:56] <Kool-Aid> HellDragon, Crossover Office
[08:56] <faileas> HELPMEEEEEE: older versions work in wine.

[08:56] <HELPMEEEEEE> WHAT IS THAT?!
[08:56] <BernieMac> How can I stop a non-terminating code in terminal?
[08:57] <|brad|> ctrl+c ?
[08:57] <GNine> openoffice comes with feisty ,, wth
[08:57] <astro76> HELPMEEEEEE, openoffice comes installed on the livecd, and quit with the caps

[08:58] <faileas> GNine: actually i'm the spy ;p
[08:58] <GNine> dammit
[08:58] <abhibera> faileas: it's cheaper there too
[08:58] <upgrayedd> lol
[08:58] <faileas> ( -faileas- VERSION xchat 2.6.8-1 Windows XP [Intel /1.40GHz]  )
[08:59] <faileas> abhibera: one thing i'd be concerned about with is wifi
[09:00] <BMT> ok i went thru the whle thing again.this time going back to my old driver
[09:00] <BMT> the i810
[09:00] <Stanley> Alright, this is fricking annoying.
[09:00] <BMT> isn't it startx
[09:00] <abhibera> faileas: why?
[09:00] <upgrayedd> I cannot get the stupid g3d Librarys to install properly.. i think... im not sure anymore :-,
[09:00] <BMT> to start the gui
[09:00] <abhibera> faileas: the dell cards are supported. u gotta dig a well to get them working
[09:00] <Stanley> When ever I open a new window, it opens it so the title bar is just out of reach on the top of my screen. If I move it, it reopens it in the same place
[09:00] <BMT> ok i got it.i think
[09:01] <BMT> startx
[09:01] <upgrayedd> *snot running out of nose*
[09:01] <rockets> ugh gstreamer is so bad at rendering video
[09:01] <rockets> if you zoom in at all it goes totally pixelated
[09:01] <faileas> abhibera: cause drivers for that on linux arn't always too easy to get working, even when they have FOSS drivers
[09:01] <rockets> no blending
[09:02] <GNine> mess with the video pluggin.. u might find something in there
[09:02] <rockets> you cant . . . . totem has no settings
[09:02] <GNine> sorry i dont sound too technical..  am a slacker
[09:03] <rockets> i'll just have to wait for gstreamer0.11
[09:03] <GNine> and am sleepy too
[09:03] <Kool-Aid> GNine, 'slacker' as in Slackware user?
[09:03] <gusto5> i have an odd, BAD problem

[09:04] <|brad|> with ubuntu i can just use it
[09:05] <faileas> gusto5: maybe its a placeholder?
[09:05] <|brad|> i dont have to compile everything myself
[09:05] <naim> Why Kino Can't Export Dv Files When I Try To Open Media File?
[09:05] <|brad|> anymore
[09:05] <gusto5> faileas, what does that mean?
[09:05] <naim> Why Kino Can't Export Dv Files When I Try To Open Media File?
[09:05] <Kool-Aid> |brad|, I haven't had to compile anything in a long while
[09:05] <Myrtti> naim: stop repeating
[09:05] <faileas> means it there cause its expected to be there, but there dosen't need to be anything there?

[09:05] <naim> JUST HELP ME!
[09:05] <naim> Hellow!?
[09:05] <gusto5> faileas, it doesnt need xorg.conf in /etc/x11/xorg.conf?!

[09:05] <HELPMEEEEEE> SWEET
[09:05] <upgrayedd> Instructions are....      buildg3d install <targetdir>         but after the build.. nothing was placed in Target Directory.. Its compiling with iCompile  could this be bug under ubuntu ?

[09:07] <faileas> gusto5: memory fails me, but there's a config script for that called  by apt
[09:07] <|brad|> Kool-Aid, so you are a slackware user?
[09:07] <Stanley> Is it possible to tell dpkg that I have the package one package depends on and use the .deb file
[09:07] <gusto5> even tried sudo su first, then sudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[09:07] <GreenDay> Hey?
[09:07] <gusto5> yeah, the one that lets me reconfigure X server?
[09:07] <notv> hello i followed a tutorial to install an fglrx driver but i get an (EE) no matching modes and i dont see fglrx in my /var/log/xorg.0.log
[09:07] <faileas> HELPMEEEEEE: alternately try kate or gedit. they are similar to notepad
[09:08] <Stanley> Both of the packages rely on each other.
[09:08] <Poul|Raider> I had my sound working, then after a reboot it was just gone?
[09:08] <faileas> gusto5: ja
[09:08] <GreenDay> Hellow?

[09:11] <imgood> what is this trolling you speak of?
[09:11] <rockets> GNine, I enabled Xv in xorg.conf and then told gstreamer to use Xv and now the video looks fantastic!

[09:12] <darx> I need to stop apache and mysql from running at startup.. how can I do so?
[09:12] <GreenDay> There Anybody Know Kino!?
[09:12] <aftertaf> imgood: use openoffice....
[09:12] <imgood> yea
[09:12] <rockets> !poop Myrtti
[09:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about poop myrtti - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:12] <aftertaf> GreenDay: yep

[09:13] <imgood> where is terminal?
[09:13] <Doitle> Terminal is at Airport
[09:13] <plowdawg> or latex
[09:13] <Myrtti> /me counts slowly to ten
[09:13] <imgood> im alergic to latex
[09:13] <aftertaf> oh dear, i see we need some ops here to do some kicking......
[09:13] <ubuntu> why
[09:13] <plowdawg> he isn't here for help
[09:13] <faileas> plowdawg: anyone who asks for frontpahe on linux is gonna faint if they are asked to use latex ;)
[09:13] <Myrtti> aftertaf: I'm just getting fed up here
[09:14] <aftertaf> Myrtti: ignore...... i know me 2
[09:14] <GreenDay> When i open a media file, kino ask me if i want to import dv files, i click ok and then he give me error "Fail To Open "However.avi.dvi" Why he fail!?
[09:14] <Myrtti> aftertaf: I'm an op... you know.
[09:14] <plowdawg> faileas: haha but if they see a document rendered by latex they will also faint
[09:14] <aftertaf> GreenDay: do you have a question about kino, ??
[09:14] <plowdawg> faileas: then they will want to learn it
[09:14] <aftertaf> Myrtti: your selfcontrol impresses me, then ;)
[09:14] <faileas> plowdawg: i thought latex looksw great?
[09:14] <rockets> Anybody know a good app for just displaying info about a video? Encoding, bitrate, etc
[09:14] <plowdawg> faileas: that is what i meant
[09:14] <Myrtti> I always try to give them enough slack
[09:14] <plowdawg> faileas: it looks so great
[09:15] <aftertaf> rockets: konqueror shows this in the file details.....
[09:15] <faileas> but.. requires damn near black magic to run ;)
[09:15] <aftertaf> Myrtti: yeah, you're a jedi ;)
[09:15] <astro76> rockets, use the file command
[09:15] <rockets> aftertaf but im not using kde and so does nautilus i just want more details

[09:19] <upgrayedd> can somebody hold my hand for a minute? Im not sure if my g3dlibs are installing correctly.. the instructions at http://g3d-cpp.sourceforge.net/manual/guideunix.html .. everything builds without error except for one tiny thing... When i look to /usr/local I dont see a /G3D-7.00/ directory.. its like the Install path didnt work...
[09:19] <aftertaf> this will let you import any recognised file. Kino natively works with SMIL project files or DVI video
[09:20] <smokinno0b> Hello?
[09:20] <aftertaf> imgood: ask a real question or be chastised....
[09:20] <smokinno0b> I need help?
[09:20] <rockets> Gutsy comes out on my birthday, lets have a party :-D
[09:20] <aftertaf> smokinno0b: ask your question
[09:20] <|brad|> upgrayedd, when you ./configure it ... you need to set the prefix=/where/you/want it to go
[09:20] <smokinno0b> Why are you so mean 2 me?
[09:20] <|brad|> upgrayedd, do a ./configure --help and read the options
[09:20] <|brad|> upgrayedd, probably at the top
[09:20] <GreenDay> aftertaf : kino fail when he export the dv file, so i can open it
[09:21] <smokinno0b> ok ok, dont help me, jsut tell me how to get to program files
[09:21] <aftertaf> smokinno0b: not mean, direct... 1045 people on here and a lot of trolling.... ;)
[09:21] <upgrayedd> thanks brad.. i thought the command ./buildg3d install /usr/local   took care of that
[09:21] <BMT> this is not working
[09:21] <|brad|> hrmm
[09:21] <smokinno0b> or my computer even
[09:21] <smokinno0b> i can find the drives
[09:21] <BMT> i have user the xserver.xorg bout four times now

[09:21] <ubotu> smokinno0b: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:21] <aftertaf> GreenDay: are you wanting to open an avi file for editing, or a dvi file?
[09:21] <|brad|> upgrayedd, i didnt look at the instructios but thats how it is normally when i compile something
[09:21] <smokinno0b> mmc snap ins?
[09:21] <BMT> and same ole results
[09:21] <Lunenfeld> Which package do i have to install to be able to watch DVDs on my laptop with Gutsy?
[09:21] <aftertaf> smokinno0b: because you expect an inferior OS, this is ubuntu.
[09:21] <upgrayedd> i guess the python script its using to compile is Fubar for xubuntu
 for edit
[09:22] <smokinno0b> ok
[09:22] <aftertaf> GreenDay: ok. avi or dvi?
[09:22] <smokinno0b> well i cant get my wintv card to work
[09:22] <smokinno0b> or my wintel modem
[09:22] <GreenDay> it's avi file

[09:22] <jords> I've got a weird problem with my HP NX5000 laptop and Kubuntu. The inbuilt speakers work fine, but If I suspend or hibernate ubuntu, and then restore, the speakers stop working. The laptop has volume up/down buttions for the speakers and a volume bar still appears on the screen when I press it, even though the speakers are'nt working. Headphones in the headphone socket still work after hibernation.
[09:22] <Flannel> smokinno0b: so, do so.
[09:23] <aftertaf> GreenDay: ok then......... dont choose Open File, choose Insert After
[09:23] <faileas> the volume bars are hardware level i think. so they should work
[09:23] <BMT> i have used the i810 driver, and the i740 driver......nether one woll let me change the station
[09:23] <|thunder> why would klogd be using 4.9 percent of my processor ?
[09:23] <jords> I've checked all the mixer settings and they look fine - no different from before hibernation when the speakers work
[09:23] <upgrayedd> brad, there isnt even a ./configure for it..
[09:23] <smokinno0b> lilo wont let me install windows

[09:23] <smokinno0b> and it interferes
[09:23] <smokinno0b> and it doesnt work
[09:23] <smokinno0b> so its broken
[09:23] <smokinno0b> and bad
[09:23] <|brad|> upgrayedd, im gonna read the install and see what it says
[09:23] <smokinno0b> cuz yea

[09:28] <Flannel> !away > Advert
[09:28] <Reaper> i've seriously been trying to dual boot for like 3 months and the guys at demonoid like to think they knw everything but they couldn't help me at all

[09:29] <Reaper> whats the problem
[09:29] <|brad|> notv, try and start x now
[09:29] <supercool330> Serioiusly though I think Ubuntu is not compatible with my monitor or something cuase everytime after startup I just get a black screen
[09:29] <Reaper> i think i might have run into every ubuntu problem
[09:29] <robert_> %Bwhee
[09:29] <Reaper> yep got that

[09:29] <|brad|> and every other night for that matter
[09:29] <supercool330> If I start in single mode I get a command line and I have tried all the video card and monitor fixes out there
[09:29] <supercool330> Ya I'm running desktop
[09:30] <faileas> demonoid is a great tracker, but i doubt they will know anything about tech support ;)
[09:30] <Reaper> yea it must be your system specs
[09:30] <Reaper> is it old?

[09:30] <Plantain> Demonoid is terrible
[09:30] <viviersf> has anyone tried building custom gutsy isos ?
[09:30] <Reaper> i like demonoid
[09:30] <|brad|> notv, reboot then
[09:30] <Plantain> It's not even a real private site
[09:30] <Reaper> i'm a member
[09:30] <faileas> Plantain: so?
[09:31] <robert_> Ugh- are there no elf dev libraries that come with freaking documentation?
[09:31] <faileas> it works pretty well speedwise
[09:31] <Reaper> i mean their library of torrents is lacking
[09:31] <Reaper> but i working with them
[09:31] <Plantain> faileas: It's slow, down often, lots of adverts, and lacks content
[09:31] <|brad|> upgrayedd, apt-get install javacc ??
[09:31] <faileas> erm
[09:31] <notv> |brad| xserver still failed to load
[09:31] <faileas> who the hell dosen't have adblock? ;p
[09:31] <|brad|> notv, what is the error?
[09:32] <faileas> their trackers seem decent, and they seem to be up for me, mostly
[09:32] <upgrayedd> ahh i tryped apt-get install javac ><
[09:32] <GNine> i need research on p2p type software
[09:32] <Reaper> flannel u there?
[09:32] <faileas> upgrayedd: install jre for javac
[09:32] <upgrayedd> k
[09:32] <Flannel> Reaper: Did you have a question? (did I miss one?)
[09:32] <|brad|> squid + adzapper is sweet
[09:32] <faileas> erm
[09:32] <faileas> no no
[09:32] <notv> |brad| (EE) no devices detected  fatal error no screens found
[09:33] <faileas> not jre
[09:33] <faileas> jdk
[09:33] <Reaper> flannel - i do now
[09:33] <GNine> hmm.. am starting to think not two ubuntu systems in this room are set up the same
[09:33] <Reaper> flannel - when you said once i install i'll have to mess around with it
[09:33] <GNine> heh
[09:33] <Reaper> what would u suggest
[09:33] <Flannel> Reaper: best to just ask, instead of asking to ask.  Even if I'm not around, someone else could always answer.
[09:33] <|brad|> notv, what card do you have?
[09:33] <[nrx] > mornin :)
[09:33] <Reaper> k
[09:33] <supercool330> Well I give up for tonight. I'm really tiered and I can try agani tomorrow =(
[09:33] <notv> radeon x1200
[09:34] <Reaper> supercool
[09:34] <gustavo> im trying to connect to a nfs server but it says i dont have permission
[09:34] <Flannel> Reaper: I have no idea.  It might work out of the box once you install.  But, I don't really know too much when it comes to graphics stuff, since I don't use it.
[09:34] <Reaper> don't give up
[09:34] <upgrayedd> Brad, I think that did it.. Thanks for holding my hand ;P i can be a tard at times.
[09:34] <notv> |brad| radeon x1200
[09:34] <Reaper> i've tried for months now
[09:34] <Reaper> and still no luck
[09:34] <|brad|> upgrayedd, glad to help
[09:34] <supercool330> I might just debian or some other build
[09:34] <Doitle> What does niceing means in htop?
[09:34] <tank> can someone help me with BOOTCAMP ?
[09:34] <GNine> supercool330, i spent 3 days to get my xserver alone to work when i first found ubuntu feisty
[09:35] <Flannel> Reaper: A lot of issues are liveCD specific, and work (to some extent or other) once you're actually installed.  Or installed and upgraded.
[09:35] <tank> it wont let me partition due to something about extended journaling?
[09:35] <Reaper> flannel - so what is it about this alternate cd that might work?
[09:35] <|brad|> i went through boot camp about 3 years ago... that wasnt fun
[09:35] <GNine> it will work.. tho.. trust me
[09:35] <xerawx> i can't wait till they get this new failsafe x server into ubuntu :p
[09:35] <tank> wait, are you guys talking bout dualboot?
[09:35] <supercool330> WOW I JUST FOUND A HOW TO FOR MY LAPTOP ON THE FORUMS
[09:35] <Reaper> wow
[09:35] <|brad|> easy buddy
[09:35] <Flannel> Reaper: the liveCD installs without X, it is a console-based menu sort of thing.  So you'll be able to install, and once you're installed, stuff is a lot more likely to work.
[09:35] <dromer> hi all, does anyone know a nice program for manipulating mp3-tags and filenames?
[09:36] <tank> im trying to dual boot with the ubuntu live CD

[09:36] <tank> what other os?
[09:36] <tank> ohh mac os x
[09:36] <dromer> thnx |brad| :)
[09:37] <Reaper> supercool, i know nothing about trying to get ubuntu to work excpet no matter what do not give up
[09:37] <|brad|> dromer, welcome :)
[09:37] <notv> |brad| any ideas?
[09:37] <gusto5> |brad|, thanks, rpkg fixes the resolution, but my xorg.conf remains empty
[09:37] <|brad|> Reaper, preach it brother!
[09:37] <elig> oh sorry my mac died last year
[09:37] <tank> anyone here using an intel mac?
[09:37] <notv> im not sure what to try next
[09:37] <Reaper> flannel - is linux good for laptops?
[09:37] <|brad|> notv, im reading about your prob. one second
[09:37] <dromer> Reaper: linux is good for everything ;)
[09:37] <faileas> Reaper: depends on what you want ;)
[09:38] <elig> lol
[09:38] <tank> reaper linux is good for everything
[09:38] <faileas> one of my laptops is linux, the other is windows
[09:38] <notv> thanks |brad|
[09:38] <tank> damn ditto dromer
[09:38] <BernieMac> reaper I'm running it on my laptop fine
[09:38] <Reaper> faileas - what do you mean? like games?
[09:38] <faileas> no OS is good for 'everything' ;p
[09:38] <Reaper> yea bernie?
[09:38] <dromer> not all laptop hw is supported though
[09:38] <Reaper> see
[09:38] <upgrayedd> GO |brad| hes on fire.. ;P
[09:38] <Reaper> i don't think mine is
[09:38] <|brad|> lol
[09:38] <elig> well any os has its pitfalls
[09:38] <tank> reaper try the live cd and soak your feet first before yu go all out
[09:38] <notv> this is the tutorial i followed for the ati card https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[09:38] <BernieMac> depends on your laptop whether it will run well. Mine was installed and ran fine right away
[09:39] <Reaper> i've been to a few websites that show different models and the distros that have worked with them so far
[09:39] <Reaper> and they don't even list my model
[09:39] <[nrx] > what's your model?
[09:39] <elig> anyone using beryl?
[09:39] <Reaper> toshiba satellite p205-s6347
[09:39] <Doitle> whereas our room mate's laptop had insane amounts of problems with the live cd. It had none of his drivers. Neither wireless nor Ethernet so he couldn't connect and get his video drivers... it was a mess...
[09:39] <andruk> !codec
[09:39] <[nrx] > Reaper: it'll run fine on that :)

[09:39] <GNine> i didnt know jack about linux ..  no experience..  i installed the thing and now am like a linux guy or something
[09:39] <Geoffrey2> anyone know how to set up a pdf plugin for Firefox?
[09:40] <GNine> heh
[09:40] <astro76> Geoffrey2, you want to print to pdf?
[09:40] <Reaper> thanks nrx i really needed to hear that, all this new stuff is scareing me
[09:40] <faileas> Reaper: i use one as a vmware and dev rig
[09:40] <[nrx] > Reaper: most tosh laptop's are fine.. especially for ubuntu
[09:40] <Reaper> faileas - i have no idea what that means
[09:40] <[nrx] > like this laptop.. is a toshiba equium and it's running fine :)
[09:41] <Reaper> thanks thats really comforting
[09:41] <GNine> setting X server was the single most painful thing to figure out .. they should work out something about that for beginners
[09:41] <Geoffrey2> astro76, no, be able to view pdfs through Firefox
[09:41] <elig> yeah xserver is a pain
[09:41] <elig> i was lucky
[09:41] <faileas> Reaper: i got one specifically for virtual machines. its a bit like a server with UPS on a budget ;p
[09:41] <[nrx] > understatement
[09:41] <notv> i have a toshiba satellite A215-S4807 and im having problems with the ati card and the wireless card
[09:41] <Reaper> i'm going to buy a server when i'm older
[09:41] <xerawx> GNine: there's work underway on a "failsafe" xserver
[09:41] <astro76> Geoffrey2, oh I don't know, I much prefer it the way it's set up to open separately in evince
[09:42] <Reaper> my built in wifi sucks
[09:42] <[nrx] > notv: what's the wireless card chip?
[09:42] <BernieMac> reaper I'm running it on a Dell Latitude D520, runs perfectly with desktop effects off. Gets a little glitchy at times with effects on
[09:42] <NemesisD> hi all, windows overwrote my mbr, im booted on the livecd, how do i get grub to overwrite it to allow for dual boot?
[09:42] <notv> atheros
[09:42] <Reaper> nrx - so ur stuff is ridiculously fast?
[09:42] <gusto5> okay, i get it
[09:42] <notv> ar5007eg i think
[09:42] <[nrx] > atheros shouldn't be a problem.. i'm running atheros here and it's all good
[09:42] <GNine> good to know.. but am talkin for future ubuntu linux users.. am beyond that threshold
[09:42] <|brad|> notv, ok i have something for you
[09:42] <gusto5> thanks |brad|
[09:42] <[nrx] > Reaper: at home, yes
[09:42] <notv> well, i havent tackled the card, im working on the gui first
[09:43] <|brad|> gusto5, i dont know what i did
[09:43] <notv> the wireless card that is
[09:43] <gusto5> |brad|, the dpkg command, fixed my res problem, so thanks =)

[09:43] <|brad|> gusto5, oh sweet. glad to helpl
[09:43] <Reaper> so is there a chance i won't be able to get online while using ubuntu?
[09:43] <Reaper> i seriously love this channel
[09:43] <gustavo> !flood
[09:43] <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)
[09:43] <notv> |brad| what a coincidence, i just stumbled upon that page myself :)
[09:43] <gustavo> can i paste 3 lines?
[09:44] <|brad|> notv, score
[09:44] <|brad|> the guy has a A215-S4697 which is prob close to what you have
[09:44] <notv> |brad| ive tried this already except for the sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:44] <Reaper> 72% done i'm sooooo excited
[09:44] <|brad|> crappy...
[09:44] <cesar_> help please i have a usb to serial converter and i get the following message:
[09:44] <BernieMac> reaper: yes there is a chance you won't have internet until you get the right drivers installed, which is problematic without internet

[09:44] <gusto5> is anyone here familar with using oidentd?
[09:44] <Geoffrey2> all I want to do is set up a plugin so when I find a pdf online i want to view, Firefox can launch the right application to view it....
[09:45] <Reaper> bernie - will it be that hard if i'm dual booting?
[09:45] <|brad|> notv, you even did the aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv ?
[09:45] <notv> |brad| i dont remember what exactly it said, but it was something about not applying to this session
[09:46] <BernieMac> reaper: thats what one of my friends did, took a day or two to get everything sorted out but he is running fine now
[09:46] <[nrx] > Reaper: this might sound complicated.. but you can always download the right drivers in your windows boot, then boot up linux, mount your windows partition and copy the drivers over
[09:46] <BernieMac> where mine just ran instantly
[09:46] <Reaper> not too bad
[09:46] <notv> |brad| id check now but i decided to try the dist upgrade first and then repeat the other steps? i dunno
[09:46] <Reaper> i mean usually when people say it's complicated i'm lost within 2 words
[09:46] <Reaper> but that i followed
[09:47] <Reaper> i mean i get the concept, i just may need help making the moves
[09:47] <[nrx] > it's all good :)
[09:47] <|brad|> notv, yea follow these steps and see what the outcome is... its a short  post so shouldnt take that long.. plus copy and paste is a wonderful thing
[09:47] <BernieMac> reaper: thats where these guys come in handy. They are brilliant
[09:47] <Reaper> things just ain't the same for a gansta
[09:47] <[nrx] > Reaper: best idea is if you can sit beside a PC that is connected to the net.. that way you can chat in here while setting up, too
[09:47] <Reaper> i've noticed
[09:47] <notv> yea...im on a different comp but im sure im getting the same stuff
[09:47] <Reaper> hhmmmm
[09:48] <notv> so close! but so far!
[09:48] <Reaper> i'd feel bad taking my roommates laptop while he's asleep
[09:48] <[nrx] > get vmware and boot your linux partition under windows then
[09:48] <[nrx] > :P
[09:48] <Reaper> 85% done, even more excited
[09:48] <Reaper> vmware?
[09:49] <[nrx] > yeah, ignore me. i'm just complicating things for you lol
[09:49] <|brad|> notv, what does X -version say?
[09:49] <GNine> heh.. by the time i found this channel... i didnt need it.. but i like showing some moral support
[09:49] <|brad|> anyone have any experience installing ubuntu on a sparc?

[09:50] <[nrx] > |brad|: yes
[09:51] <[nrx] > !pastebin > gustavo
[09:51] <Reaper> well i just wanted to know the general opinion of the channel
[09:51] <Reaper> ubuntu related
[09:51] <BernieMac> for what reaper?
[09:51] <gustavo> [nrx] : i guess 3 lines is allowed, dont?
[09:51] <[nrx] > gustavo: it's a bit messy if we're talking to someone else :)
[09:51] <|brad|> [nrx] , what kind of box was it?
[09:51] <GNine> mounting a file over a network.  interesting
[09:52] <[nrx] > |brad|: it was an ultra... and i stopped trying after 45 minutes :P hehe
[09:52] <GNine> :-/
[09:52] <Reaper> is ubuntu worth getting or is it so simple you can just jump to a harder distro
[09:52] <|brad|> [nrx] , boo
[09:52] <gustavo> /home/shared 192.168.2.0/24 (rw,no_root_squash,sync)
[09:52] <gustavo> :(
[09:52] <[nrx] > Reaper: stick with ubuntu just now :)
[09:52] <gustavo> why it doesnt work?
[09:52] <Some_ux> Scenario: One ubuntu server (moderately weak CPU) behind router. A second client running Windows attempting to access the network from a different location. Requirements: Client does not know Linux, wants to connect to a windows system. OK, so what are the best ways to get the Job done. I was thinking Xen+Installing XP on the Ubuntu machine. Is that a good idea ?
[09:52] <Reaper> i'm really excited to use it
[09:52] <|brad|> [nrx] , i got it to work on a blade 100 but we have a crap tone of ultra 10's and want to get one of those working for a project at work
[09:53] <BernieMac> reaper: can't really help with that question, but I'm loving ubuntu so far, its my first linux experience
[09:53] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: uhm
[09:53] <|brad|> [nrx] , the OBP on them is real real old. i think that might be the problem
[09:53] <[nrx] > |brad|: shouldn't be too much different from the blade, i just didn't have the patience at the time
[09:53] <GNine> ubuntu is the hardest thing to work with.. until it works.. then is like a breeze
[09:53] <Reaper> thanks bernie, your the guy i wanna talk to then
[09:53] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: what *exactly* are you trying to do?
[09:53] <GNine> oh.. well.. there is no spoon.. that is also tru
[09:54] <Reaper> bernie - were u using windows before ubuntu?
[09:54] <BernieMac> yeah, xp
[09:54] <|brad|> [nrx] , to get the blade to work we had to do a install ide=nodma. that fixed the install prob on the blade 100
[09:54] <BernieMac> dual booting actually
[09:54] <Reaper> bernie - think you'll ever go back?
[09:54] <gogeta> wow the ubuntu guys just shot themselfs in the foot with 7.10
[09:54] <[nrx] > |brad|: it's been a while since i got rid of all my sparcs.. what's the blade 100 spec?
[09:54] <|brad|> gogeta, its not done yet
[09:54] <gogeta> no
[09:54] <gogeta> enabling copmpiz by defult
[09:55] <Some_ux> I am trying to create a virtual XP computer whenever there is a need for one, the XP will run ontop of the Ubuntu server when required. Client will remote desktop to the "virtual" PC, will do so through VPN (or any other secure tunneling means)
[09:55] <gogeta> they just crashjed every ati user
[09:55] <BernieMac> reaper: I go back to windows when I need something from there, gaming is done in windows, beyond that, I like ubuntu
[09:55] <BernieMac> even learning to code in it
[09:55] <Aminux> hi
[09:55] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: oh ok
[09:55] <GNine> thanks for the report gogeta , i feel safer now.. i use nvidia
[09:55] <Aminux> i need some help ubuntu,please :)
[09:55] <Reaper> is there a program to manage your ipod music?
[09:55] <[nrx] > !ask
[09:55] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:55] <Reaper> for ubuntu
[09:55] <gogeta> lol
[09:55] <|brad|> [nrx] , i cant remember off the top of my head but i think its a 500 mhz with a gig of ram or something like that
[09:55] <Aminux> i made a mistake
[09:55] <|brad|> [nrx] , dunno for sur e
[09:55] <Aminux> cat /dev/zero > /zero;rm -f /zero
[09:55] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: seems a slightly convoluted way to do things
[09:56] <gustavo> damn :-(((
[09:56] <gustavo> im so unlucky
[09:56] <gogeta> they voted to have compiz installed and enabled by defult on 7.10
[09:56] <Reaper> my dl is complete!!!
[09:56] <gogeta> relly bad idea
[09:56] <Aminux> lost all disk space with that command
[09:56] <[nrx] > |brad|: and after running nodma, it installed no probs?
[09:56] <dgjones> Reaper, there's a few packages that seem to work ok with ipods & mp3 players
[09:56] <notv> |brad| i did all of the commands, sudo aticonfig --intial gave me uninitialised file found, configuring
[09:56] <Aminux> how can i get the space back?
[09:56] <dgjones> !ipod | Reaper
[09:56] <ubotu> Reaper: 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
[09:56] <Some_ux> gordonnjcp: are there better ways ?
[09:56] <gogeta> dont they relise a 3d desktop is more a toy then anything of real inportance
[09:56] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: well I don't really know what you're trying to do
[09:56] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: does the user need a particular Windows-only application, or something?
[09:57] <GNine> ouch, gogeta
[09:57] <gogeta> well it is
[09:57] <cesar_> thanks penis
[09:57] <gogeta> we wanna switch out apps we just make multi workspaces
[09:57] <notv> |brad| --overlay-type=Xv gave me warning video overlay and opengloverlay doesnt affect running session
[09:57] <notv> now what?
[09:57] <GNine> that i dont know then.. i had a headache with compiz last time i put my finger on it
[09:57] <gogeta> then you whont like 7.10
[09:57] <|brad|> notv, restart that bad boy and see what happens
[09:57] <aftertaf> try the backports version, if you want to risk it..... its god
[09:57] <Aminux> how can i undue this command  cat /dev/zero > /zero;rm -f /zero
[09:57] <Some_ux> gordonjcp: user is unfamiliar with linux, and will take too long to familiarize with + yes probably needs MS word
[09:57] <Reaper> hey i have a question about burning
[09:58] <trix> hello, do I just go ahead and ask a question?  got myself into trouble trying to upgrade wireless... now modprobe ipw2200 gives FATAL ERROR
[09:58] <|brad|> notv, cross your fingers also
[09:58] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: give them an XP desktop then
[09:58] <[nrx] > |brad|: lol
[09:58] <Aminux> any help is appreciated
[09:58] <Reaper> when i burn ubuntu to a cd should i not chose the fastest burning speed to lessen  chances of mistakes?
[09:58] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: or just give them and Ubuntu desktop and let them get on with it
[09:58] <gogeta> i like it its a cool toy but i like turning it off as well
[09:58] <gustavo> help with NFS?
[09:58] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: there is no practical difference for normal users
[09:58] <[nrx] > Reaper: wrong way around.. do disc at once and slower
[09:58] <BernieMac> reaper: shouldn't matter, the one we used was burned in I think 2 minutes
[09:59] <Some_ux> gordonjcp: how can i give them an XP desktop from a remote location ?
[09:59] <notv> ASHJKLFDAGL'HJDAJKAFDG
[09:59] <astro76> Reaper, it's usually fine, only if you have a problem
[09:59] <Aminux> can someone help?
[09:59] <dgjones> Reaper, a lower speed is normally recommended as it reduces the risk of bad burns, I normally use 4x
[09:59] <notv> BRILLIANT
[09:59] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: I don't understand your question
[09:59] <|brad|> notv, ?
[09:59] <gogeta> some_ux vnc
[09:59] <|brad|> notv, you achieved victory?
[09:59] <notv> |brad| much thanks
[09:59] <notv> indeed
[09:59] <Reaper> well i've had so many problems with ubuntu so far i'm gonna take the slow and steady path
[09:59] <Some_ux> well, I need something similar to vnc, except that there is no real machine
[10:00] <gogeta> lol reaper
[10:00] <BernieMac> good to be safe I suppose
[10:00] <Aminux> hello
[10:00] <gogeta> nio real machine?
[10:00] <[nrx] > Reaper: try a middle speed and disc at once
[10:00] <gusto5> is 0.5.2 compiz slated for ubuntu 7.10?
[10:00] <notv> i suppose i needed the dist upgrade
[10:00] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: why are they connecting to a remote machine at all?
[10:00] <notv> but i just made the install cd tonight
[10:00] <[nrx] > i just shit a brick. someone let off an airhorn outside the office window :(
[10:00] <gogeta> yea i dont understand
[10:00] <trix> ha
[10:00] <|brad|> apt-get dist-upgrade = upgrades everything it can on the system
[10:00] <Reaper> can someone answer a quick mIRC question for me?
[10:00] <trix> used to have an airhorn in my little prelude... rip
[10:00] <Reaper> or not here
[10:01] <gogeta> you whont a vnc connection but no real machine
[10:01] <[nrx] > Reaper: what's up|
[10:01] <Some_ux> The ubuntu server is Silent, small, energy efficient and works most of the time, other PCs dont work all day long
[10:01] <BernieMac> reaper: do you have your hdd already partitioned for ubuntu?
[10:01] <Aminux> can someone help ?
[10:01] <Reaper> yes bernie
[10:01] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: you haven't really given a clear statement of the problem
[10:01] <NemesisD> hi guys, trying to get my wireless adapter working (dlink dwl-g132), ive got ndiswrapper -l saying device present, and ive done modprobe ndiswrapper, but i'm not connected to the internet, what should i do now
[10:01] <|brad|> gordonjcp, im confused as well
[10:01] <supercool330> damn how did it get to 3 in the morning
[10:01] <Reaper> how do tell people i'm away cuz i was about to go to the bathroom and i don't want people to give me tips and me miss them
[10:01] <notv> |brad| do i need ndiswrapper to set up atheros?
[10:01] <gordonjcp> Reaper: don't
[10:01] <BernieMac> reaper: ok, just checking. that was my biggest problem
[10:02] <[nrx] > type /away not here
[10:02] <|brad|> notv, ive never used ndiswrapper...
[10:02] <gordonjcp> Reaper: just scroll back when you get back, if anyone's highlighted you
[10:02] <Aminux> can anyone help or not?
[10:02] <Reaper> thanks nrx
[10:02] <[nrx] > gordonjcp: :P
[10:02] <Some_ux> The problem is allowing a windows based remote access to the local network, where no real machine actually runs windows, there is only a linux box
[10:02] <Aminux> jesus
[10:02] <notv> somoene mentioned an open source one but i cannot recall its name...
[10:02] <NemesisD> notv, i believe one of my adapters had an atheros chip, you probably will
[10:02] <|brad|> notv, what was the model number of your laptop again?
[10:02] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: as I understand it, you have a server that you want to run a bunch of XP virtual machines on, and connect to them remotely from some other machine, is that right?
[10:02] <Reader> Is anyone here running two xgl sessions on two different monitors?
[10:02] <gordonjcp> shit, I'm late for work now
[10:02] <Some_ux> precisely
[10:03] <notv> |brad| Toshiba Satellite A215-S4807
[10:03] <Myrtti> gordonjcp!
[10:03] <gogeta> some_ux oh
[10:03] <[nrx] > im running atheros and not having any problems
[10:03] <gogeta> linux vnc servers are compatble with windows vnc viewers
[10:03] <[nrx] > worked right out of the box :)
[10:03] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: ok, why specifically do you want virtual machines running on the server?
[10:03] <|brad|> Some_ux, terminal services wont work?
[10:03] <gogeta> that whont be aproblem
[10:03] <gogeta> he said he wanted the desktop right
[10:04] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: incidentally qemu will allow you to do something like that with XP apparently
[10:04] <gogeta> if text only you can just use ssh
[10:04] <gogeta> and putty for windows
[10:04] <Some_ux> hehe, well partly because it will be fun to do so :) but mostly because the user is familiar with using VNC to connect to other places
[10:04] <dgjones> Aminux, looks like there's nobody around who can help at the minute, you'd be better asking again later on when more people come on line
[10:04] <gogeta> as i said
[10:04] <gogeta> a linux vnc server will conenct to a windows viewer
[10:04] <[nrx] > Aminux: or try #bash :d
[10:04] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: it's possible, it's not even particularly hard to do, but I have a sneaky feeling you're trying to solve the wrong problem
[10:04] <|brad|> notv, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=549015&highlight=Toshiba+Satellite+A215-S4807
[10:05] <|brad|> notv, someone was real nice and wrote everything down for you
[10:05] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: why do you want lots of virtual machines on one server?  What is the user running locally?
[10:05] <[nrx] > |brad|: nice find
[10:05] <upgrayedd> hey brad, one more for good measure.. Ill make this one easier. =D http://pastie.caboo.se/97122   If you wouldnt mind..
[10:05] <Some_ux> I don't want lots of virtual machines. Just one
[10:05] <gogeta> girdon didnt he say he wanted to connect to his linux server threw windows
[10:06] <[nrx] > upgrayedd: try sudo build.sh
[10:06] <gogeta> thats not a vm
[10:06] <Garcian> why cant they make ubuntu detect my hardware out of the box like windows can?
[10:06] <|brad|> upgrayedd, yea you need super user privs
[10:06] <gordonjcp> Some_ux: I *think* you're looking for qemu and seamless desktop
[10:06] <gogeta> or vmware
[10:06] <gordonjcp> Garcian: wow, windows can autodetect now?
[10:06] <Some_ux> not familar with qemu
[10:06] <gordonjcp> Garcian: what's not detected?
[10:06] <upgrayedd> ahh. how do i uptain superuser status ;P
[10:06] <Reader> Garcian: They try to but the hardware manufacturers are in bed with MS.
[10:06] <|brad|> gordonjcp, lol
[10:06] <Reader> ha ha ha
[10:06] <upgrayedd> obtain
[10:06] <|brad|> upgrayedd, with sudo
[10:07] <gogeta> vmware server free
[10:07] <|brad|> upgrayedd, sudo <command>
[10:07] <Reaper> i need to learn how to use mIRC better cuz if i did i would have found this channel months ago and been knee deep in ubuntu
[10:07] <gordonjcp> does windows come with a tcp/ip stack yet, or is that still something you have to get separately?
[10:07] <gogeta> prety easy
[10:07] <[nrx] > |brad|: without the ./
[10:07] <upgrayedd> yeah.. that didnt work either ;P
[10:07] <xerawx> anyone know if Gnash works in Opera?  Gnash 0.8 shows up in my plugin list in Opera but any flash just appears as a grey box :|
[10:07] <gogeta> it works best with windows as well
[10:07] <kel> Hi, how would I found out what file system is my external hard drive using? (/etc/fstab wouldn't help as I just plugged in the hard disk.)
[10:07] <gordonjcp> Reaper: or xchat, if you're in Ubuntu ;-)
[10:07] <upgrayedd> username@xubuntu:~/g3d-ruby/source$ sudo ./build.sh Password: sudo: ./build.sh: command not found
[10:07] <[nrx] > Reaper: this aint really the place for mIRC. try xchat :)
[10:07] <Reaper> xchat
[10:07] <upgrayedd> command not found with SUdo
[10:07] <Reaper> i'll keep that in minc
[10:07] <Reaper> mind
[10:07] <gogeta> lol
[10:08] <gordonjcp> upgrayedd: is build.sh in the directory you're in?
[10:08] <dgjones> Garcian, it depends on your hardware, i've not had a problem with autodetection, new hardware can be a problem, or hardware where the manufacturer is closely tied to MS & don't release open source drivers
[10:08] <Reader> mIRC's ok if you happen to be stuck on a work pc running windows
[10:08] <Reaper> the cd just finished so hopefully when i talk to you all in 5 minutes it will be from ubuntu
[10:08] <upgrayedd> yes
[10:08] <upgrayedd> build is in the directory
[10:08] <gordonjcp> upgrayedd: hm
[10:08] <Reaper> thanks for all the help, i can't say and mean it enough
[10:08] <Some_ux> gordonjcp: I don't want to run specific windows applications on linux. I want the user to be completely oblivious to the fact that a linux machine even exists
[10:08] <gordonjcp> well bear in mind, when you sudo you're not *quite* really running as root
[10:08] <upgrayedd> build.bat
[10:08] <upgrayedd> build.sh
[10:08] <upgrayedd> Capsule.cpp
[10:08] <gordonjcp> upgrayedd: try saying "sudo -i" and running from a root shell
[10:08] <xerawx> bleh.. i hate flash.. and i hate adobe/macromedia for not releasing the plugin source
[10:08] <Garcian> ubuntu has corrupted a lot of my memory keys
[10:08] <BernieMac> reaper: good luck!!
[10:08] <|brad|> gordonjcp, i was just gonna say that
[10:09] <Reaper> oh wait
[10:09] <Reader> Has anyone here ever tried to logout of two xgl sessions simultaneously with one logout button?
[10:09] <Reaper> is there anything i should know
[10:09] <upgrayedd> k ill try tat
[10:09] <Reaper> like when i first start up in ubuntu?
[10:09] <Reaper> commands that will save me?
[10:09] <Garcian> it wont show a progress bar when copying files to the memory key
[10:09] <dgjones> Reaper, good luck with the install
[10:09] <gordonjcp> later
[10:09] <|brad|> its probably gonna complain that you dont have g++ installed
[10:09] <xerawx> irssi in a screen session on ssh ftw.. never disconnect from irc again ;P
[10:09] <Reaper> me brad?
[10:09] <gogeta> some_ux then yes you whant vmware
[10:09] <|brad|> Reaper, no that was for upgrayedd
[10:10] <|brad|> sorry
[10:10] <gordonjcp> xerawx: yup
[10:10] <BernieMac> its going to have you install updates probably
[10:10] <Reaper> my fualt
[10:10] <Reaper> ok
[10:10] <Garcian> im sick of people who think its cool to not use a gui
[10:10] <|brad|> Garcian, haha
[10:10] <[nrx] > Reaper: you shouldn't have any problems.. just run with the install.. and take notes if there's errors or problems and then come back here :)
[10:10] <upgrayedd> root@xubuntu:/root/.local/share/Trash/files/g3d-ruby/source# sudo -i ./build.sh
[10:10] <upgrayedd> -bash: ./build.sh: No such file or directory
[10:10] <gordonjcp> Garcian: sometimes it's appropriate not to use a GUI
[10:10] <upgrayedd> wth .. i even used auto complete to get the filename
[10:10] <Myrtti> I love irssiproxy... I can use my own nick with mobile phone irc with it :->
[10:10] <Reaper> well i'll talk to you all soon
[10:10] <elig> i mean if your machin can run a gui and your happy with it who cares
[10:10] <|brad|> upgrayedd, do a sudo -i with nothing after it
[10:10] <[nrx] > Reaper: good luck :)
[10:10] <gordonjcp> Garcian: most of the time all I use a GUI for is running lots of terminal windows
[10:10] <|brad|> that will give you a root shell
[10:10] <kel> Hi, how would I found out what file system is my external hard drive using? (/etc/fstab wouldn't help as I just plugged in the hard disk.)
[10:10] <|brad|> then you can just do ./build.sh
[10:11] <gogeta> vmware emulates another pc
[10:11] <gordonjcp> kel: mount
[10:11] <omha> how can i get my turn screen light up and down to work on my laptop?
[10:11] <upgrayedd> ok brad.. i did a sudo -i now what ?
[10:11] <xerawx> its not just cool to not use a GUI.. its a question of which is more efficient for the task at hand
[10:11] <gogeta> lets you run windows inside linux
[10:11] <gordonjcp> kel: just "mount" on its own
[10:11] <gogeta> fully
[10:11] <kel> mount
[10:11] <Some_ux> ok, so VMWare on ubuntu is one way of doing it. Should i use Xen or VMware ?
[10:11] <kel> Ohh
[10:11] <notv> [nrx]  what model is your atheros?
[10:11] <gordonjcp> kel: not here, in a terminal ;-)
[10:11] <hochimoo> how do I set the gateway?
[10:11] <gogeta> vmware is free
[10:11] <kel> gordonjcp, thanks I love you
[10:11] <Garcian> windows xp has worked perfectly for me
[10:11] <|brad|> now do ./build.sh
[10:11] <gordonjcp> o_O
[10:11] <kel> gordonjcp, yea my comp is a bit slow :p
[10:11] <Reader> Then use windows xp Garcian
[10:11] <Garcian> 98 gave me problems
[10:12] <elig> curious as to if vmware is like the old virtualpc
[10:12] <gogeta> xen and others tend to need fast systems
[10:12] <kel> 555mhz Pentium III
[10:12] <Garcian> and vista...ugh
[10:12] <gordonjcp> Garcian: I've not tried Windows XP, is it any good?
[10:12] <Garcian> yes
[10:12] <upgrayedd> hmm after sudo -i i dont see anything in directory at all
[10:12] <GNine> wow .. 555 mhz
[10:12] <Some_ux> OK, so VMWare is more efficient ?
[10:12] <NemesisD>  trying to get my wireless adapter working (dlink dwl-g132), ive got ndiswrapper -l saying device present, and ive done modprobe ndiswrapper, but i'm not connected to the internet, what should i do now
[10:12] <elig> i dualboot xp pro
[10:12] <Garcian> best windows ve
[10:12] <gogeta> yea
[10:12] <|brad|> upgrayedd, Oops
[10:12] <antler> gordonjcp: haven't tried or never been on?????
[10:12] <compwiz18> can anyone suggest a good html editor that has php support?
[10:12] <Garcian> *version
[10:12] <|brad|> upgrayedd, you are in /root now
[10:12] <gordonjcp> antler: might have used it without realising that's what it was
[10:12] <hochimoo> compwiz18: vim
[10:12] <gogeta> it run xp on my 1.8 amd 512 ram 128 video quickly
[10:13] <|brad|> upgrayedd, cd to the directory you were at
[10:13] <Garcian> compwiz: dreamweaver
[10:13] <kel> GNine, yup, wouldn't run XP, let alone Vista
[10:13] <|brad|> upgrayedd, sorry i forgot aboout that
[10:13] <gogeta> other ran it horridly slow
[10:13] <gordonjcp> Garcian: I looked into getting Windows, but none of the software I use was properly supported
[10:13] <gogeta> vmware runs vista to
[10:13] <gogeta> like i would thow
[10:13] <gogeta> lol
[10:13] <GNine> kel, a walmart cash regiter is faster
[10:13] <upgrayedd> root@xubuntu:/home/wildfire/g3d-ruby/source# ./build.sh
[10:13] <upgrayedd> -bash: ./build.sh: Permission denied
[10:13] <|brad|> gordonjcp, lol ive never heard anyone say that before
[10:13] <Some_ux> ok, so vmware it is then. The other problem is raising the Virtual server on demand. is it possible ?
[10:14] <upgrayedd> is something funky with file permissions or what ?
[10:14] <|brad|> upgrayedd, ok something is jacked up
[10:14] <Garcian> i prefer BSD to linux
[10:14] <kel> GNine, really? dont they havr arm or something?
[10:14] <gogeta> ?
[10:14] <GNine> no offense.. but ubuntu makes alot of things feel better
[10:14] <|brad|> Garcian, free?
[10:14] <gogeta> so what
[10:14] <gogeta> do what
[10:14] <elig> i would like to run some little game from linux that are on my windows installation
[10:14] <Reader> anyone here know know anything about xgl sessions?
[10:14] <gordonjcp> |brad|: if you can come up with a way of running Ardour and LADSPA/DSSI plugins in Windows, then great
[10:14] <Garcian> yes freebsd is free
[10:14] <chuxxsss> kel: fdisk l
[10:14] <Garcian> lol
[10:14] <gordonjcp> |brad|: until I can use Windows for audio work, it's useless to me
[10:14] <|brad|> gordonjcp, i dont even know what you just said
[10:14] <gogeta> rasing on demand do you mean switching back and forth
[10:15] <elig> i only use it so my gf can play games
[10:15] <antler> gordonjcp: oh my god. windows kicks the lama's ass for audio work
[10:15] <Some_ux> I don't want the ubuntu machine to constantly run a virtual PC on the background. I only want it raised when the user needs to connect
[10:15] <|brad|> antler, lol
[10:15] <antler> audio production, audio mixing, etc
[10:15] <gordonjcp> antler: no it doesn't
[10:15] <antler> audio production?
[10:15] <gordonjcp> antler: none of the software I need runs in Windows
[10:15] <Garcian> goldwave
[10:15] <elig> true i have reason3 its wonderful
[10:15] <gogeta> that might not be possable
[10:15] <omha> gordonjcp, nope
[10:15] <antler> reason, cubase
[10:15] <|brad|> upgrayedd, you are root it shouldn't deny you anything
[10:15] <gordonjcp> antler: both useless to me
[10:15] <antler> what do you do, if i may ask
[10:15] <elig> i have sonar also
[10:16] <Some_ux> I am willing to get my hands dirty to make it work (i.e. program)
[10:16] <gordonjcp> antler: I write music
[10:16] <antler> gordon: cubase is for you
[10:16] <antler> but it's hella expensive
[10:16] <gordonjcp> antler: no, cubase is useless
[10:16] <upgrayedd> i know ><
[10:16] <Garcian> gordonjcp: linux wont make your music less shitty
[10:16] <[nrx] > notv: sorry. it's the 5212.. that's about all i can get out of it
[10:16] <|brad|> upgrayedd, do a ls -l build.sh
[10:16] <gordonjcp> antler: it doesn't do a thing I want
[10:16] <gogeta> you could probly make a script to start vmware when he connects
[10:16] <compwiz18> upgrayedd, chmod 755 build.sh
[10:16] <gogeta> but he would need to power up the xp emu
[10:16] <xerawx> gordonjcp: what audio apps do you use in linux?
[10:16] <gordonjcp> antler: the sequencer is good - just like I remember from the Atari days
[10:16] <u-foka> hy
[10:16] <elig> what would you want from an audio app gordon
[10:16] <antler> *gulp*
[10:16] <|brad|> compwiz18, you have the same thoughts as i
[10:17] <gordonjcp> xerawx: ardour, seq24 or rosegarden depending on what I'm working on, and a few soft synths

[10:17] <andruk> how do i install mp3 codecs for rhythmbox?
[10:17] <antler> that's the best thing u can say about cubase? the sequencer? hahaha

[10:18] <gordonjcp> antler: I mean basically I could live with Cubase for controlling and recording my hardware synths, but it hasn't got the plugins I need
[10:18] <compwiz18> hochimoo, sudo route add default gw x.x.x.x
[10:18] <gordonjcp> antler: which are, to be fair, highly customised
[10:19] <compwiz18> hochimoo, sudo route del default gw #note the corrected typo

[10:24] <gogeta> all he has to do then is push the big power on buttion
[10:24] <gogeta> it has the same gui the windows version does
[10:24] <faileas> Some_ux: actually i think vmware player has got a decent interface for noobs. NONE ;p
[10:24] <gogeta> well he needs server to make it
[10:24] <u-foka> nbody? :S
[10:25] <aftertaf> faileas: no, oolite is Elite, the space game, in gl :)

[10:29] <NemesisD> ok all, so i added my wlan0 to /etc/network/interfaces, but i can't seem to just ifup it, where do i configure this connection?
[10:29] <the^user> thnx i gonne look for it
[10:29] <omha> riaal, system -> settings -> gnome session
[10:29] <aftertaf> NemesisD: sudo ifup?
[10:30] <NemesisD> aftertaf,  i get No DCHPOFFERS received. when i do that
[10:30] <[nrx] > NemesisD: is your router running DHCP server|
[10:30] <aftertaf> NemesisD: using wep/wpa?
[10:30] <NemesisD> [nrx] , should be and no
[10:30] <NemesisD> no to aftertaf that is
[10:30] <Some_ux> OK, so assuming i will install vmware. do i need to create a new HD partition for it ?
[10:31] <aftertaf> NemesisD: argh. you on gnome? there should be a wifi networks tool. Can you see your access point in it?
[10:31] <Some_ux> I dont want the user to mess with the linux stuff
[10:31] <NemesisD> aftertaf, yes i can and i can see the name of it but it has no signal and I think i added that manually
[10:32] <aftertaf> NemesisD: and i take it from windows it works fine?
[10:32] <NemesisD> aftertaf, yes
[10:33] <aftertaf> NemesisD: what card again?
[10:33] <NemesisD> aftertaf, usb, dwl-g132 by dlink, also ndiswrapper shows both drivers as being installed, says device is present
[10:34] <aftertaf> NemesisD: i know that i didnt have to add anything to /etc/network/interfaces, ubuntu just found(tm) it.
[10:34] <aftertaf> when you lspci, do you see it?
[10:34] <Some_ux> Should i create a dedicated partition for VMWare ? or does it create a virtaul HD or something ?
[10:34] <NemesisD> aftertaf, lsusb shows it, 2001:3a02
[10:35] <Some_ux> never user virtualization software before
[10:35] <aftertaf> er yeah, lsusb... lol oops.
[10:35] <Some_ux> used
[10:35] <aftertaf> Some_ux: dont make a partition yet, unless you have space already, just use the file option.
[10:36] <Some_ux> is it more secure to create a separate partition ? does it even matter ?
[10:36] <aftertaf> NemesisD: hmm. a toughy. Never used that type of setup....... out of ideas (not that i had any really....)
[10:36] <aftertaf> Some_ux: for me, easier to use a file on a partiton already in plcae. you can also copy this file to another pc after
[10:37] <mosno> for anyone struggling with the full syntax of /etc/apt/preferences, check out: apt-get policy
[10:37] <NemesisD> aftertaf, also modprobe -r ndiswrapper freezes my system every time
[10:38] <aftertaf> NemesisD: argh! and i take it no native drivers for this usb card...
[10:38] <Some_ux> I meant to ask, if you dont create a separate partition, can the user unintentionally access stuff that does not belong to his virtual machine ?
[10:38] <aftertaf> no. black box. afaik
[10:39] <NemesisD> aftertaf, i don't know how you define native, also i know i've gotten it working before on a previous installation, same hardware too
[10:39] <aftertaf> NemesisD: ah the joys of linux. I have had that before........   native as in, not using windows drivers...
[10:40] <Ircha> Somebody please help :/ I'm trying to burn an .iso file to a dvd, it's about 4.3gb in size and i use K3B to burn it. It loads the file fine, but I can't burn it. The reason is it says "Burn medium" and under that "please insert an empty dvd+r((W) medium... and I can't find one. I have an empty dvd cd in my dvd burner thingy, but it won't show
[10:41] <NemesisD> aftertaf, no, im in ndiswrapper hell, but oddly ndiswrapper is reporting all is well, even iwconfig wlan0 looks right, i just can't get dchpoffers or start the connection
[10:41] <NemesisD> aftertaf, hmm strange, now sudo ifup wlan0 is saying interface already configured
[10:41] <|brad|> NemesisD, /etc/init.d/networking restart ?
[10:41] <aftertaf> NemesisD: all i can do is wish you good luck and may google present you with a workaround..... or here maybe...
[10:42] <gustavo> how can i free up hd space?
[10:42] <GNine> lol
[10:42] <GNine> sorry.. this Weeds show is too cool
[10:42] <[nrx] > gustavo: get rid of junk you don't need, uninstall apps that you don't need/use
[10:43] <gustavo> GNine: u like weed?

[10:43] <gustavo> someone wants sausages?
[10:43] <GNine> the show.. yes.. the other type .. yes.. and the garden variety.. nah
[10:45] <NemesisD> why the heck does my audio cd show up on my desktop when i put it in but i can't do mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom
[10:45] <|brad|> thats cause you dont mount audio cds
[10:45] <NemesisD> but i wanna
[10:45] <[nrx] > was just about to say that
[10:45] <|brad|> you cant. thats not how they work
[10:45] <NemesisD> i hate using serpentine for playing audio cds
[10:46] <NemesisD> i use exaile but for some reason open disc is greyed out
[10:46] <GNine> u dont need to mount dvds either.. l
[10:46] <Some_ux> ah, I almost forgot... The Linux box runs Ubuntu 64(pretty spiffy btw) will vmware run on it ? will it create 32bit XP with no problems ?
[10:49] <|brad|> someone needs to have a problem... im getting sleepy
[10:49] <j2daosh> quick question about hardware
[10:50] <j2daosh> i want to build a system with AMD AM2 dual-core cpu, but all the ones i'm coming across have 64 bit support. does that mean i have to get a 64 bit os and 64 bit applications?
[10:50] <|brad|> no
[10:51] <xerawx> no
[10:51] <Some_ux> getting VMware:  add-> deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main ->to /etc/apt/sources.list , then sudo apt-get update + sudo apt-get install vmware-server ?
[10:51] <xerawx> it means you can use a 64-bit os, but you don't have to.. they're backward compatible
[10:51] <|brad|> what he said
[10:51] <NemesisD> what file do i edit in ubuntu for network interface configuration
[10:51] <MannyZ> hello

[10:52] <olliwolli> hi i try to build an amd64 deb package of a program of mine, I already have the i386 package and tried to change the debian/control and debian/rules files but it did not work out. how can i build both i386 and amd64 packages on a i386 machine?
[10:52] <BernieMac> brad, any idea why my video media players do not like desktop effects?
[10:52] <MannyZ> is here anybody who knows about nvidia resolution settings?
[10:52] <|brad|> BernieMac, ive heard of that problem. but i dont know why they dont play nice with each other
[10:53] <|brad|> MannyZ, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:54] <BernieMac> |brad| thanks! I guess I'll just have to choose which one I want to play with at the time
[10:54] <joris> I try to compile kmobiletools and i get an error -> there seems to be a fix but i don't know how to use it... Maybe someone can point me in the right direction?
[10:54] <|brad|> BernieMac, sorry
[10:55] <BernieMac> |brad| not your fault! At least now I know that it isn't just my computer hating ubuntu
[10:55] <joris> here's the fix http://www.kmobiletools.org/node/314#comment-778
[10:56] <Liber> Hey
[10:56] <NemesisD> [nrx] , ok so is address the static ip or is it the address of the router
[10:57] <[nrx] > NemesisD: which address?
[10:57] <NemesisD> in /etc/network/interfaces
[10:57] <|brad|> NemesisD, address is the address you want the interface to have
[10:57] <Reaper> hey
[10:57] <BernieMac> reaper! you are alive!
[10:57] <[nrx] > wb Reaper. How did it go?
[10:57] <|brad|> NemesisD, you want to use dhcp tho right ?
[10:57] <Reaper> hahaha
[10:58] <Reaper> i barely made it out alive
[10:58] <NemesisD> |brad|, actually no, and ive got no connectivity it seems with dhcp
[10:58] <BernieMac> are you on ubuntu now?
[10:58] <|brad|> Netham45, ok
[10:58] <Reaper> it was so promising but to no avail, still no ubuntu
[10:58] <NemesisD> i doubt this will work
[10:58] <BernieMac> argh! what went wrong?
[10:58] <|brad|> NemesisD, have faith
[10:58] <Reaper> something about X
[10:59] <[nrx] > NemesisD: you will need to use iface <iface> inet static then
[10:59] <|brad|> freaking crap.... why is X giving ppl such a hard time tonight
[10:59] <Reaper> can u help me out brad?
[10:59] <NemesisD> [nrx] , before restarting the networking service?
[10:59] <BernieMac> talk to brad, hes a genius
[10:59] <|brad|> BernieMac, i wouldnt go that far
[10:59] <|brad|> or even close
[10:59] <[nrx] > NemesisD: you will have to put that line in your /etc/network/interfaces
[11:00] <Reaper> brad, so what do i do about X?
[11:00] <BernieMac> haha maybe not, but you are helping people rather than yelling, I've seen a lot of the yelling by people the last couple days
[11:00] <|brad|> what is your X problem?
[11:00] <|brad|> yelling at them will just turn them away... and thats no good
[11:01] <Reaper> it says their was a problem and then gives me the option to diagnose it or not
[11:01] <BernieMac> agreed, people like you keep people like me and reaper coming back
[11:01] <[nrx] > Reaper: need more information than that :)
[11:01] <Reaper> it said something about interface
[11:01] <Slacks2002> what do i need to know to create a self-installer for windows ?
[11:01] <pravin> How do I do this in python? Given ('a', 'b', 'c', 'd') I want to return ('ab', 'c', 'd')
[11:02] <|brad|> fr0nk, try apt-get install portmap try and restart mysqld after that
[11:02] <Myrtti> *yawn*
[11:02] <gordonjcp> pravin: #ubuntu-offtopic or #python ;-)
[11:02] <SlimeyPete> Slacks2002: With all due respect, you need to know which channel to ask in :) ##windows.
[11:02] <Slacks2002> sry guys pm if u wanna help me in my mishion
[11:03] <|brad|> ok Reaper, i assume you are on a dual boo machine right ?
[11:03] <NemesisD> zomgs, no errors on sudo ifup wlan0
[11:03] <Reaper> yep
[11:03] <|brad|> boot*
[11:03] <|brad|> hrmm
[11:03] <NemesisD> but still no connectivity
[11:03] <|brad|> NemesisD, nothing in /var/log/messages
[11:03] <|brad|> tail -f /var/log/messages
[11:03] <pravin> can't join any channel apart from this :(
[11:03] <BernieMac> NemesisD what does that command do?
[11:04] <[nrx] > NemesisD: what does iwconfig give you?
[11:04] <NemesisD> BernieMac, i assume it brings the connection up
[11:04] <BernieMac> pravin you may need to download the other xchat
[11:04] <|brad|> ifup = interface up. that brings the interface up
[11:04] <|brad|> ifdown does the opposite
[11:04] <NemesisD> brad, says ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
[11:04] <|brad|> whoa crazy
[11:04] <[nrx] > ;o
[11:04] <NemesisD> and then some crap about eth0 and eth1 which aren't connected
[11:04] <pravin> BernieMac,  where do i download the other one?
[11:04] <|brad|> link is not ready...
[11:05] <BernieMac> ahh, makes sense. I'm a bit new to linux, but the more I use it the more I don't wanna boot windows
[11:05] <Reaper> nrx can u help me with this X interface problem
[11:05] <NemesisD> [nrx] , what do you need from iwconfig, it gives me some info on my wireless device
[11:05] <crdlb> pravin, why can't you join any other channels?
[11:05] <BernieMac> pravin under applications go to add/remove and search for xchat
[11:05] <|brad|> Reaper, we can help ya out but we are gonna need more of the error message to diagnose the problem
[11:06] <[nrx] > NemesisD: just paste the output into pastebin
[11:06] <Reaper> ok i'll go start back up and actually pay attention this time haha
[11:06] <pravin> I have installed xchat from add/remove
[11:06] <BernieMac> pravin you want the IRC client, not the Gnome one
[11:06] <[nrx] > Reaper: take a note of the exact error message
[11:06] <|brad|> Reaper, sweet!
[11:06] <pravin> oh
[11:06] <|brad|> xchat ftw!
[11:06] <NemesisD> [nrx] , ill type it then i suppose, no internets on the comp in question, gimme a sec
[11:06] <crdlb> pravin, either is capable of joining multiple channels though
[11:06] <Arkygeek> hi.  how do i start the ssh server in feisty fawn? (kde)
[11:07] <crdlb> xchat is just more powerful than xchat-gnome
[11:07] <|brad|> Arkygeek, sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[11:07] <Arkygeek> thx dude :D
[11:07] <pravin> #python : You need to be identified to join that channel
[11:07] <|brad|> no problem
[11:07] <pravin> I get this message
[11:07] <BernieMac> pravin I would suggest listening to crdlb, he probably knows more than me
[11:07] <|brad|> oh
[11:07] <|brad|> you need to register your nick
[11:07] <BernieMac> I almost guarantee it
[11:07] <crdlb> !register | pravin
[11:07] <ubotu> pravin: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[11:07] <|brad|> http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup
[11:07] <Liber>  Pentium 3 Laptop 433mhz with 128 Ram and 6GB Hard drive , any chance to install ubuntu ??
[11:08] <|brad|> xubuntu maybe
[11:08] <crdlb> pravin, #python blocks users who aren't registered and identified (logged in)
[11:08] <pravin> !register
[11:08] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[11:08] <sauvin> 6GB drive, yes. 128mg RAM, um... um... um...
[11:08] <|brad|> gonna need the alt install cd
[11:08] <[nrx] > i can't remember the damn command to show available wireless networks.
[11:08] <|brad|> regular install cd wont work
[11:08] <Liber> I tried both ubuntu and xubuntu , lives wont boot up
[11:08] <[nrx] > it's gone right oot mah heed!
[11:09] <|brad|> it needs min 256Mb ram
[11:09] <NemesisD> [nrx] , http://pastebin.ca/697232
[11:09] <JonJ> iwlist <adapter> scanning?
[11:09] <Liber> the alt discs didnt help much
[11:09] <aftertaf> 128 ram is not a lot. no way you can boost to 256 at all?
[11:10] <JonJ> [nrx] : From terminal, iwlist ethX scanning? It does the trick on my computer.
[11:10] <[nrx] > JonJ: haha, yes, thanks
[11:10] <crdlb> pravin, by the way, you can't register that nick because it's already taken
[11:10] <JonJ> np
[11:10] <pravin> Thanks guys
[11:10] <Liber> I can buy more ram , but not till next week
[11:10] <crdlb> although it's so old that you could ask a freenode staffer to drop it
[11:10] <Augustus_Kolya> [nrx] : Won't boot up? As in, the computer ignores the disc and boots Windows anyway?
[11:10] <pravin> crdlb, I will register another nickk i suppose
[11:10] <[nrx] > iwconfig Augustus_Kolya huh?
[11:10] <[nrx] > oops
[11:10] <tomaw> pravin: you can have that one if you want it.
[11:11] <Augustus_Kolya> [nrx] : Is that what you mean?
[11:11] <Augustus_Kolya> or do you get an error message while Ubuntu is trying to boot?
[11:11] <[nrx] > NemesisD: can you try from terminal 'sudo iwconfig <iface> essid dlink
[11:11] <[nrx] > NemesisD: then take all other interfaces down, including wlan0 and bring wlan0 up
[11:12] <[nrx] > Augustus_Kolya: i don't have any problems.. and i have no idea what you're talking about lol
[11:12] <Augustus_Kolya> oh, I caught something about the disc not booting
[11:12] <[nrx] > not from me :)
[11:12] <Augustus_Kolya> OEM's like to set it so the computer won't boot off a CD
[11:13] <Stanley> Anyone know how to make it so my windows don't open on the top of my screen where the title bar is just outside my reach. I have tried moving the window and hoping it wouldn't open the same next time, but it does.
[11:13] <BernieMac> My ubuntu freezes on boot up if I leave my wireless card on, if I boot then enable, or disable before shutdown everything works fine. Thoughts?
[11:13] <[nrx] > Augustus_Kolya: that was Liber
[11:13] <NemesisD> [nrx] , ok no errors bringing it back up, now what
[11:13] <Augustus_Kolya> oh

[11:22] <Reaper> failed to start the X server (your graphical interface) it is likely that it is not set up correctly. would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?
[11:22] <Myrtti> Shazoo: I haven't done it myself so I don't know
well , thanks all the same .
[11:22] <mattuk> dmc68: is there not an install button on your desktop?
[11:22] <dmc68> did not see one
[11:22] <Reaper> give it to me staright doc...am i toast?
[11:23] <clip> |brad| , i compiled the extension, and everything seems fine, but when i run a testscript it's somehow not working
[11:23] <notv> |brad| i hate to bug you again but do you know what i should look for now?
[11:23] <dmc68> i am trying to do a dual boot from windows
[11:23] <dmc68> slid in the CD had it boot from CD
[11:23] <Reaper> oh dmc
[11:23] <|brad|> Reaper, have you sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg tried that command
[11:23] <NemesisD> [nrx] , no resolv.conf file, but theres a resolveconf directory with some other stuff in it
[11:23] <mattuk> yea, then what came up? a usable version of linux?
[11:23] <Liber> dmc68, you are suppose to run the Live CD and then install the system from within the live CD
[11:23] <[nrx] > Reaper: did you try and view the output?
[11:23] <|brad|> NemesisD, it should be a file
do you know the "server" install mode which can use in version 5.10 ?
[11:23] <dmc68> okie dokie thanx Liber
[11:23] <[nrx] > NemesisD: that's part of your problem. you should have /etc/resolv.conf
[11:23] <MannyZ> !java
[11:23] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[11:24] <Reaper> nrx yea
[11:24] <NemesisD> [nrx] , yeah for me all i have is /etc/resolvconfg/update-libc.d and soforth
[11:24] <OliverKrueger> HelloWorld
[11:24] <[nrx] > NemesisD: you need to create one.. with two lines
[11:24] <MannyZ> thanks [nrx] 
[11:25] <|brad|> clip, cd to /etc/php5/conf.d
[11:25] <|brad|> clip, do a ls and tell me if you see ffmpeg.ini in there
[11:25] <Reaper> the output said  "screens found but none have a usuable configuration
[11:25] <[nrx] > NemesisD: one line "nameserver 127.0.0.1" and second line "nameserver <ip of your router>"
[11:25] <[nrx] > MannyZ:  no problem
[11:25] <|brad|> Reaper, the output of what?
[11:25] <gustavo> aaaaaa
[11:25] <Reaper> of my X server
[11:25] <[nrx] > Reaper: you'll need to talk to |brad| about that one.. he seems to be working on all the X issues just now hehe
[11:26] <|brad|> notv, i cant remember what we did... you are the guy with the x1200 right?
[11:26] <clip> |brad|, no sth. wrong with ffmpeg?!
[11:26] <notv> what would cause my x server to work on reboot, then on a subsequent reboot, give me a black screen again?
[11:26] <notv> |brad| yes
[11:26] <|brad|> clip, i dont understand your last statment
[11:26] <OliverKrueger> After modprobe'ing cloop (and loop) my losetup fails with "ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Inappropriate ioctl for device". Im using a FeistyFawn (2.6.20-16). Does anybody give me a hint, how to debug?
[11:26] <NemesisD> [nrx] , ok done
[11:26] <clip> |brad|, it's not in there, does that mean there's sth. wrong with the ffmpeg installation
[11:27] <[nrx] > NemesisD: what's in /etc/hosts ?
[11:27] <Reaper> brad - the message said...failed to start the X server (your graphical interface) it is likely that it is not set up correctly. would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?
[11:27] <|brad|> notv and Reaper let me help clip for one sec i will be right with you guys
[11:27] <[nrx] > howlingmadhowie: :)
[11:27] <Reaper> ok
[11:27] <howlingmadhowie> echo "hello world!"
[11:27] <|brad|> clip, no all we have to do is create that file
[11:27] <|brad|> clip, its not hard
[11:28] <NemesisD> [nrx] , 127.0.0.1    localhost \n 127.0.0.1     Apollo-Prime
[11:28] <clip> |brad|, just create a ffmpeg.ini?
[11:28] <NemesisD> [nrx] , then some other lines about ip6, should i pastebin?
[11:28] <howlingmadhowie> for i in `users`; do echo hello $i; done
[11:28] <|brad|> clip, 1 second
[11:28] <Reaper> so what time is it where everyone is
[11:28] <gustavo> hey
[11:28] <clip> sre
[11:28] <[nrx] > add 127.0.1.1 Apollo-Prime
[11:28] <askand> If I made /var/www writeable for my user, would that be a securityrisk since it is the apacheroot?
[11:28] <[nrx] > i presume appolo-prime is your hostname
[11:28] <howlingmadhowie> how are things, [nrx] ?
[11:28] <[nrx] > howlingmadhowie: getting there slowly.. managed to get network at home working, sort of
[11:29] <[nrx] > howlingmadhowie: seems to be ipv6 issues
[11:29] <gustavo> is that normal that i cant connect to my wireless computers from another network? but they can get through me?
[11:29] <NemesisD> [nrx] , whoops that was my typo, it already says 1.1, not 0.1
[11:29] <howlingmadhowie> askand: i can't see it being a problem. /var/www just contains files you want apache to display anyway
[11:29] <OliverKrueger> askand: Your user(s) can alter your website. Depends on how you trust you users. :)
[11:29] <gustavo> is that normal that i cant connect to my wireless computers from another network? but they can get through me (in a cabled network - another network address)?
[11:29] <[nrx] > NemesisD: try restarting network sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart and bring your wlan up again see how that goes
[11:29] <howlingmadhowie> [nrx] : oh, that's interesting
[11:29] <[nrx] > and brb!
[11:29] <|brad|> clip, echo extension=ffmpeg.so > /etc/php5/conf.d/ffmpeg.ini
[11:30] <jose> anyone have an ipod classic?
[11:30] <Reaper> whats classic?
[11:30] <jose> i can't get it working in ubuntu
[11:30] <Reaper> is that with the 4 buttons?
[11:30] <jose> the new ipod
[11:30] <|brad|> clip, then sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload
[11:30] <|brad|> gosh i love this stuff
[11:30] <NemesisD> [nrx] , should i ifdown it after restarting networking
[11:30] <Reaper> haha
[11:30] <Ircha> I'm having trouble with windows Kubuntu. It's really hard to find things, install programs and get things to work and it's much easier with windows xp which i'm used with.. should i revert back to windows or should i keep struggling with linux you think? I'm not good at computers.
[11:30] <Reaper> brads the man
[11:31] <|brad|> Ircha, press on
[11:31] <howlingmadhowie> Ircha: installing programs on (k)ubuntu should be easy. where are you having difficulties?
[11:31] <Ircha> Well. With .tar.gz files, i unpacked them and after that i couldn't go any further howlingadhowie
[11:32] <|brad|> clip, are you still with me man?
[11:32] <clip> |brad|, ok i executed the commands, lets see
[11:32] <howlingmadhowie> Ircha: what are you trying to install? isn't it in the repositories?
[11:32] <|brad|> sweet
[11:32] <clip> (=
[11:32] <Reaper> don't mean to be rude but brad are you done?
[11:32] <Ircha> howlingadhowie Frets on fire, a game like guitar hero 2
[11:32] <|brad|> Reaper, i should be. we'll see what clip says
[11:32] <Reaper> k
[11:32] <howlingmadhowie> Ircha: let me see if i can find it on the net.
[11:33] <Ircha> it isn't my major problem though.. the biggest problems are all my internet browsers crash all the time, sometimes everything crashes, it's unstable and hard to work with too
[11:33] <askand> howlingmadhowie:  ok so people outside cannot edit these files somehow easier if I give my user writepermissions?
[11:34] <clip> |brad| it worked, thanks! you know about installing phpmotion?
[11:34] <|brad|> clip, yes :)
[11:34] <|brad|> i have a working install working on the box sitting next to me
[11:34] <|brad|> i have some probs with it tho
[11:35] <|brad|> it converts *.wmv great
[11:35] <|brad|> everything else... not so much
[11:35] <clip> |brad| (=, maybe you can help me when your finished with the others
[11:35] <|brad|> clip, ok
[11:35] <clip> that would be nice
[11:35] <TiaGo|SouZa> does somebody here knows if a pppoeconf gui was implemented in gutsy?!
[11:35] <|brad|> clip, sounds good to me
[11:35] <clip> sweet ^^
[11:35] <|brad|> Reaper, notv, ok boys lets get to work
[11:35] <[nrx] > NemesisD: yes
[11:35] <[nrx] > NemesisD: then bring it back up
[11:36] <Reaper> yay!
[11:36] <Reaper> do work son, do work
[11:36] <[nrx] > |brad|: lol
[11:36] <notv> |brad| should i inspect the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file?
[11:36] <|brad|> notv, has the x1200 what card do you have Reaper
[11:36] <|brad|> please
[11:36] <Reaper> where can i check to see?
[11:36] <howlingmadhowie> askand: to edit the files the user would have to have access to them. apache parses the files and sends html-code, it doesn't actually grant access to the files themselves
[11:37] <askand> howlingmadhowie: ok thanks
[11:37] <howlingmadhowie> Ircha: i've found the site and i'm downloading it. there doesn't appear to be a deb or an ubuntu repository anywhere for this program :(
[11:37] <|brad|> lspci | grep -i vga will tell you
[11:37] <notv> |brad| i dunno what this means but i spot [drm]  open result is -1 (no such device) open failed and also at the end
[11:37] <Reaper> im using windows right now
[11:37] <|brad|> Reaper, oh crap... yea i just remembered that
[11:37] <sauvin> $deity will forgive you, reaper.
[11:38] <NemesisD> [nrx] , still can't ping google, nor my router
[11:38] <|brad|> Reaper, ok. xp?
[11:38] <Reaper> vista
[11:38] <howlingmadhowie> Ircha: 66% downloaded :)
[11:38] <[nrx] > NemesisD: what's the error?
[11:38] <notv> |brad|, at the end fglrx (0): [drm]  removed 1 reserved context for kernel, unmapping 8192 bytes of SAREA 0x200 etc
[11:38] <TiaGo|SouZa> does ANYBODY here knows if a pppoeconf gui was implemented in gutsy?!
[11:38] <|brad|> notv, lol, i have no idea what that means
[11:39] <notv> me neither
[11:39] <notv> just an idea
[11:39] <|brad|> ok i need to think for a second
[11:39] <|brad|> by that i mean run down to my truck and get my laptop :)
[11:39] <Liber> ok , I managed to Install LinuxMint Xfce edition on my 128mb ram laptop
[11:39] <NemesisD> [nrx] , same, for google, unknown host www.google.com, for my router it says destination unreachable

[11:40] <howlingmadhowie> Ircha: it works for me. i just unplugged it and clicked on the fretsonfire executable and it started
[11:40] <[nrx] > NemesisD:  cat /etc/resolv.conf - what do you get?
[11:41] <pedro_dgv> they are not in the /usr/local/mysql
[11:41] <howlingmadhowie> Ircha: i mean extracted, not unplugged :)
[11:41] <MattJ> gusto5: Type uname -r in Terminal, what does it say?
[11:41] <gusto5> its a 386
[11:41] <gusto5> i want a 686, right?

[11:43] <gusto5> so what do i actually want?
[11:43] <gusto5> 2.6.20-16-686?
[11:43] <MattJ> gusto5: linux-image-generic
[11:44] <NemesisD> [nrx] , yes, wlan0
[11:44] <MattJ> Feisty uses the 'generic' kernel, which automatically switches
[11:44] <|brad|> laptop is booting up... gimme a sec
[11:44] <gusto5> okay, ill get the generic then

[11:44] <gusto5> MattJ, also, how do i remove older kernels from grub, and altogether?
[11:45] <MattJ> gusto5: I don't think there is any other way than editing /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:45] <Reaper> ok got it i think
[11:45] <[nrx] > NemesisD: sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid dlink
[11:45] <gusto5> MattJ, okay, so just gedit it right?
[11:45] <Reaper> could it be
[11:45] <[nrx] > NemesisD: sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
[11:45] <Reaper> X3100
[11:45] <MattJ> gusto5: gksudo gedit
[11:45] <NemesisD> [nrx] , ifdown first?
[11:45] <MattJ> gusto5: and make a backup copy of the file first
[11:45] <[nrx] > NemesisD: no
[11:46] <gusto5> MattJ, what's the command to make a backup again?
[11:46] <[nrx] > NemesisD: then iwlist wlan0 scanning - does it show your wifi?
[11:46] <ayu_> kopok
[11:46] <NemesisD> [nrx] , no scan results
[11:46] <MattJ> gusto5: Just copy the file... cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.lst.bak
[11:46] <|brad|> Reaper, richt click my computer
[11:47] <Reaper> i think i got it brad
[11:47] <|brad|> Reaper, once that is open click on device manager in the top left corner
[11:47] <Reaper> X3100
[11:47] <|brad|> another ati card.....
[11:47] <[nrx] > NemesisD: rmmod ndiswrapper
[11:47] <slawek> hello all
[11:48] <[nrx] > NemesisD: output?
[11:48] <|brad|> Reaper, wait a min. do you have an intel cpu?
[11:48] <gusto5> MattJ, brb, let's see how this goes
[11:48] <NemesisD> [nrx] , im going to give it a minute but i think this also happened with ndiswrapper -r, screen freezes, can't move cursor
[11:48] <NemesisD> [nrx] , and likely won't be able to restart x
[11:48] <zsz> thanks, you've been helpful :)
[11:49] <gustavo> !gtk2
[11:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gtk2 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:49] <gustavo> !gtk2.0
[11:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gtk2.0 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:49] <[nrx] > NemesisD: you have a problem with your driver/ndiswrapper then. it's not seeing the network at all which means it aint loading the correct driver
[11:49] <NemesisD> [nrx] , hmm
[11:49] <Reaper> brad, yea
[11:49] <NemesisD> theres actually 2 drivers
[11:50] <Reaper> brad i think it's GMA X3100
[11:50] <|brad|> NemesisD, do a lsmod and see if its loaded
[11:50] <[nrx] > NemesisD: yeah, lsmod
[11:50] <wolfmanz> What would cause 1 hard drive to be setup properly with the ntfs 3g driver and another hard drive i have connected doesnt seem to be able to write to to its ntfs partitions anyone know?
[11:50] <|brad|> Reaper, ok i think your card will be easier to fix cause its intel. i thought it was ati... ok cool
[11:50] <Reaper> yes!!!!
[11:51] <Reaper> something that might be easier
[11:51] <Reaper> i haven't heard that once since i've become interested in gettin linux
[11:51] <Moniker42> can ubuntu be installed via network?
[11:51] <Moniker42> as in, without a cd?
[11:51] <NemesisD> [nrx] , looks like ima have to hard reboot, hold please
[11:51] <[nrx] > NemesisD: k
[11:52] <howlingmadhowie> Moniker42: if your computer supports network boot, it must be possible
[11:52] <Moniker42> howlingmadhowie, network boot?
[11:53] <[nrx] > :x
[11:53] <MattJ> Moniker42: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot
[11:53] <|brad|> Reaper, try this
[11:53] <|brad|> Reaper, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=494943
[11:53] <howlingmadhowie> Moniker42: your computer has to be able to boot over the ethernet port. some computers can only boot from floppy, cd or harddrive.
[11:54] <howlingmadhowie> Moniker42: instructions for network install of ubuntu on a client compter capable of network booting can be found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot
[11:54] <notv> |brad| i went through the steps again and got my GUI back...is there something going on where its resetting my settings when i shut down?
[11:54] <NemesisD> [nrx] , ok see if what's loaded, ndiswrappers or the specific driver names
[11:55] <[nrx] > NemesisD: both
[11:55] <|brad|> notv, i dont know what would be doing that
[11:55] <notv> i hope its a fluke
[11:55] <|brad|> notv, as do i
[11:55] <[nrx] > NemesisD: i have to nip away for a bit, just been called to a meeting... sorry man :/
[11:55] <askand> Im having troubels with phpsupport on my apacheserver..when I try to load a php file in the browser, it tries to download the file..
[11:55] <Moniker42> thanks howlingmadhowie mat
[11:56] <NemesisD> [nrx] , ndiswrapper shows up as its own thing and under usbcore, but the specific drivers for the device, no
[11:56] <Moniker42> * thanks MattJ
[11:56] <NemesisD> [nrx] , oh ok, i need to get some sleep probably, when do you think youll be back in
[11:56] <|brad|> notv, i guess something that you could do is make a copy of your xorg.conf so if it does screw up all you would have to do is copy the working config to xorg.conf and then start x so you would have to reconfigure x all the time
[11:56] <[nrx] > about 45 minutes
[11:56] <[nrx] > lol
[11:56] <MattJ> Moniker42: np
[11:56] <NemesisD> [nrx] , ok, well i'll be back in like 6 hours ;)
[11:56] <|brad|> sleep... thats a good idea
[11:56] <[nrx] > NemesisD: best bet is to make sure your chip is supported.. get the right driver from madwifi and start again :)
[11:56] <|brad|> it is 6 am
[11:57] <[nrx] > NemesisD: ok :
[11:57] <[nrx] > :)
[11:57] <[nrx] > sleep?
[11:57] <[nrx] > hah
[11:57] <[nrx] > it's 11am ;p
[11:57] <clip> |brad|, so whats up? got time
[11:58] <|brad|> clip, looks that way...
[11:58] <[nrx] > howlingmadhowie: be ye there?
[11:58] <|brad|> its been a while since i installed phpmotion or whatever its called
[11:58] <gusto5> hi again MattJ question: how do i go about installing everything else the generic kernel needs?
[11:58] <clip> |brad|, ok, so i'll just tell you waht i did
[11:58] <|brad|> k
[11:59] <MattJ> gusto5: It will be installed for you, just use synaptic or apt-get
[11:59] <gusto5> MattJ, which is the one i need to get wireless working?
[11:59] <gusto5> im on an intel 3945 ABG card
[11:59] <[nrx] > *yawns*
[12:00] <MattJ> gusto5: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic
[12:00] <clip> |brad|, i installed lamp. then mplayer with apt-get, and it downloaded all codecs. then i installed ffmpeg (compiled it) and now ffmpeg-php. there is a tester.php, that shows that everythin is installed properly. but when i run the setup.php i get a blank screen
[12:01] <MattJ> gusto5: Sorry
[12:01] <MattJ> gusto5: Install linux-restricted-modules-generic
[12:01] <clip> |brad| i alredy looked up the forum, but there is no proper answer
[12:01] <gusto5> MattJ, will it matter if im already installing the other?
[12:01] <gusto5> =D
[12:02] <MattJ> gusto5: If you install the other one, it will never update
[12:02] <gusto5> MattJ, should i uninstall the other one, or just leave them both installed?
[12:03] <antler> is it bad to install new video drivers on top of older ones?
[12:03] <gusto5> or would the second one have called for the first one, MattJ
[12:03] <MattJ> gusto5: In Terminal, do this: sudo aptitude install linux-restricted-modules
[12:03] <gusto5> MattJ, says i have it all
[12:03] <MattJ> gusto5: and then do this: sudo aptitude markauto linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic
[12:04] <[nrx] > can't stop yawning
[12:04] <Reaper> brad, the site is for people already using ubuntu
[12:04] <MattJ> gusto5: Ok
[12:04] <blue|fox> Hello :> I've read that in the next major release of Ubuntu compiz is going to be enabled by default...it's very slow and unstable at this point on my PC though :/ Will there still be a way to turn it off?
[12:04] <gusto5> MattJ, have it all for both commands
[12:04] <MattJ> blue|fox: Of course
[12:04] <MattJ> gusto5: Ok, good
[12:04] <gusto5> time to reboot?
[12:04] <MattJ> Guess so :)
[12:05] <gusto5> ahaha, see you on the other side then =)
[12:05] <gusto5> thanks

[12:08] <gusto5> yay
[12:08] <Reaper> the topic is for people running ubuntu
[12:08] <Doitle> This is a very n00b question but, I have a HP C4100 series printer hooked up to Ubuntu, it shows up in the hardware manager but... I don't know how to tell things to print to it lol
[12:08] <perseus> hey guys
[12:08] <Doitle> I got the HP Software Toolbox off the add/remove and it seems like it should be compatible
[12:08] <perseus> i have a problem my ubuntu is not working on my Vmware
[12:08] <gusto5> MattJ, so wireless works, but how do i get the rest of the generic kernel-related things?
[12:09] <MattJ> gusto5: such as?
[12:09] <gusto5> MattJ, i have no idea =D
[12:09] <perseus> :S any help ?
[12:09] <|brad|> Reaper, you are running ubuntu, aren't you ?
[12:10] <MattJ> gusto5: You have everything I have :)
[12:10] <Reaper> no
[12:10] <blue|fox> Ahh...maybe it was just the old nvidia drivers that was making compiz unstable...I just turned it on and off again to test it out under feisty with the latest nvidia drivers and it works fine :> Not nearly as slow
[12:10] <gusto5> lol MattJ okay
[12:10] <MattJ> uname -a
[12:10] <gusto5> Linux Stephen-Asus 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Fri Aug 31 00:55:27 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[12:10] <gusto5> much better
[12:10] <MattJ> Better :)
[12:10] <Reaper> brad, i can
[12:10] <khamael> hello. I need help getting my scanner to work. it is listed in lsusb, but xsane won`t let it scan
[12:10] <Reaper> 't
[12:11] <Reaper> brad - i can't past the error message
[12:11] <Reaper> i'm gonna try something tho
[12:11] <Reaper> brb
[12:11] <Shoopuf> I want to start dual-booting Ubuntu, I have not installed it yet, and I am running Windows XP. Except, my only problem is I'm quite afraid that during the "partition" step I will lose some of my data. How can I avoid this, or am I paranoid?
[12:11] <|brad|> you are going to have print that out and download those files and burn them to a cd
[12:11] <MattJ> Shoopuf: You should always back up your data
[12:11] <|brad|> then boot into ubuntu
[12:12] <aioobe> question about mysql setup: I do not want to use mysqld_safe. The init-script seems to use this. Is there any nice way around this?
[12:12] <MattJ> Shoopuf: I have never lost any (and I have installed Ubuntu many, many times). But if you don't back up your data, you will lose it some day :)
[12:12] <BernieMac> Shoopuf like they said you should back up your data, however I resized mine(as did 2 of my friends) and we lost no data
[12:13] <ompaul> Shoopuf, as to what MattJ said that is the way forward
[12:14] <Frogzoo> Shoopuf: backup what you can't replace
[12:15] <BernieMac> Frogzoo thats exactly what I did, hooray for external drives
[12:15] <snegler> I have an external harddrive with all my music on. When I run Amarok I seem to loose write permission to this harddrive. I have no idea why. If I unmount the drive and mount it again, I will have write permission again (untill I run amarok) Any idea what causes this?
[12:15] <Doitle> So printing... do I hit custom and type in like lp0 or something? How do I know what the symbolic link to my printer is?
[12:16] <perseus> Guys
[12:16] <[nrx] > Girls
[12:16] <popapappo> how do i get source from a git://
[12:16] <perseus> My ubuntu is not working on VMware
[12:16] <gusto5> Thanks a bunch MattJ maybe ill catch you again the next time my kernel breaks, until then, tak
[12:16] <antler> perseus: *sob* *sob*
[12:16] <Shoopuf> MattJ, Frogzoo: Thanks. I will backup again. :) It's been a few months. But maybe I just wait until Gutsy Gibbon before dual-booting...
[12:16] <MattJ> gusto5: No problem, please do :)
[12:16] <perseus> hmmm
[12:17] <Liber> say , the Add/remove panel in ubuntu is Gnome only ?
[12:17] <perseus> werll really it'somting bad :S
[12:17] <perseus> something
[12:17] <Frogzoo> Shoopuf: heh, if you can't replace it & don't have it backed up already, gl
[12:17] <[nrx] > Liber: no
[12:17] <perseus> i don't know why, i installed it correctly
[12:17] <Plantain> How can I list all the partitions available, mounted or not?
[12:17] <perseus> whille booting only black screen
[12:17] <Frogzoo> Plantain: for x in a b c d e ; do sudo fdisk -l /dev/sd$x ; done
[12:18] <perseus> any idea guys ?
[12:18] <Plantain> Frogzoo: Thanks
[12:18] <popapappo> guys? how do iget source from a git repositry?
[12:18] <Frogzoo> man git?
[12:18] <perseus> i think no one has a clue for VMware
[12:18] <popapappo> i am too stupid
[12:19] <codi> git-clone or git-pull
[12:19] <BernieMac> !print

[12:25] <Wikzo> hi
[12:26] <gustavo> http://picpaste.com/topology.jpg can someone help me? my cabled pc cant access my wireless pc
[12:29] <djwisdom> perseus: on your vmware guest os installation, were you able to boot your ubuntu cd under vmware prior to installation?
[12:31] <humbolto> does anybody know a USB/NAS external HDD running on Linux? One which is know to be easy to adapt software wise.
[12:32] <gordonjcp> humbolto: what exactly are you looking for?
[12:34] <stefg> !apt
[12:34] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[12:34] <humbolto> gordonjcp: The HW specs are not important. All it needs to have is 30GB+ storage a NIC and Linux running on it. I want to run a streaming server on it, serving just one broadcast stream.
[12:35] <BMT> hello to all
[12:35] <BMT> i was working on my screen resolution last night....
[12:35] <BMT> got some good help from very good people ...but for some reason....using the different intel drivers did not work
[12:36] <BMT> my laptop was initially step to use i810 driver
[12:36] <el_xulo_wapo> weeeeee
[12:36] <BMT> my laptop was initially set up to use the i810 driver

[12:37] <Myrtti> and I was just about to remove him
[12:37] <BernieMac> my ubuntu stops during boot up if I shut down with my wireless card still enabled(laptop). If I wait and turn on after boot up and/or turn off before shut down everything is fine. Any thoughts?
[12:37] <djwisdom> ;)
[12:38] <Frogzoo> gustavo: from wired pc, traceroute to wireless pc
[12:38] <gordonjcp> humbolto: just build a PC then
[12:39] <gustavo> Frogzoo:

[12:39] <irnet> aiii
[12:39] <gustavo> Frogzoo: it tries to go outside
[12:40] <Frogzoo> BernieMac: add the driver module to MODULES in /etc/default/acpi-support might fix it
[12:41] <humbolto> gordonjcp: additional requirements: smallest possible form factor, price less then $500
[12:41] <bullgard4> Compared with dmesg the kern.log file includes additional absolute timestamps. Are there more differences yet?
[12:41] <upgrayedd> cowss... cowss need 3d programming.. cows cows..
[12:41] <BernieMac> Frogzoo: could you give any more instruction? I am real new to linux...
[12:41] <Frogzoo> gustavo: to the net?
[12:42] <gustavo> Frogzoo: yes
[12:42] <|brad|> BMT, back again?
[12:43] <[nrx] > wb
[12:43] <|brad|> hey hey
[12:43] <Frogzoo> gustavo: so add a route to the wireless subnet on the unwireless router
[12:44] <gustavo> frogzoo, okay, i will try it :)
[12:44] <kioloo> list
[12:44] <gustavo> my notebook cant shut down , what can i do? it doesnt responds
[12:44] <gustavo> damn!
[12:44] <Frogzoo> BernieMac: what's the name of the wireless interface?
[12:45] <moforilla> Im trying to install using the live cd, onto a emtpy drive, which I formatted, and which has no file system (had fedore on last).
[12:45] <BernieMac> PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network
[12:45] <moforilla> I get this message, "failed to create a file system",  "The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of scc3 (0,0,0) sda failed"
[12:46] <Frogzoo> BernieMac: lsmod |grep 3945 gives what?
[12:46] <blue|fox> I'm impressed with how well a dual core 1.86ghz performs for the price I paid for it...generates some neat rainbow tables in a decent amount of time ;>

[12:49] <Frogzoo> BernieMac: then reboot & see if that fixed it
[12:49] <BernieMac> ok, thanks Frogzoo! Rebooting now I'll be back to let you know in a minute
[12:49] <[nrx] > !women
[12:49] <ubotu> The women and men of the Ubuntu women project hang out in #ubuntu-women. Encouraging women to use linux? Read http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Encourage-Women-Linux-HOWTO/ for some suggestions compiled by women who use Linux on how to do so effectively.
[12:49] <[nrx] > :D!
[12:49] <Myrtti> huh?
[12:50] <Frogzoo> "Encouraging women to use linux" - oh cripes, that is so condescending...
[12:50] <[nrx] > lol i know
[12:50] <[nrx] > i can see the bra's being burnt already
[12:51] <Myrtti> /me sees her bra right on the place
[12:51] <steel_lady> is it possible to run a win screensaver in ubuntu? I have beautiful fairies...
[12:51] <|brad|> rofl
[12:51] <[nrx] > uhm
[12:52] <Reaper> brad
[12:52] <[nrx] > is it just me or is there a huge amount of irony there... !women... screensavers.. fairies..
[12:52] <Myrtti> [nrx] : why?
[12:52] <Myrtti> oh
[12:52] <Reaper> brad there?
[12:52] <[nrx] > Reaper: he went on vacation. To the moon.
[12:52] <h1st0> Does anyone know if I compile a custom kernel and boot to it.  Then I install nvidia.com drivers will it interfere with my stock kernel and nvidia-glx package?
[12:52] <|brad|> im kinda  here... been talking with clip
[12:53] <Reaper> dude i'm ready to throw in the towel
[12:53] <[nrx] > Myrtti: I presume you're female then? :)
[12:53] <Frogzoo> steel_lady: your fairies are binary incompatible I'm afraid
[12:53] <Reaper> nothing is easy
[12:53] <Reaper> everything is ridiculously complicated and seems like it's not worth it
[12:53] <Myrtti> [nrx] : /whois Myrtti and then google
[12:54] <Frogzoo> Reaper: the linux learning curve is steep at first, don't let anyone tell you otherwise
[12:54] <[nrx] > you must be female... maing it complicated for me instead of a simple, straight answer :P
[12:54] <BernieMac> Frogzoo: did not fix it. Boot froze in the same spot
[12:54] <h1st0> Reaper: what sort of problems are you having?  I'm assuming you are used to using Windows? Once you understand linux you will see many upsides.
[12:54] <BernieMac> Reaper: once you get it up and running it is amazing
[12:54] <h1st0> Reaper: What issue are you having?
[12:54] <Reaper> yea thats sounds great but i've wanted it up and running for like 3 months now and it's just not working
[12:54] <Myrtti> [nrx] : besides, it's a secondary thing for me and should be also for you
[12:55] <Reaper> there is no way 3 months of frustration are worth it
[12:55] <Myrtti> I prefer to be known by my linux/ubuntu skills more than my sex
[12:55] <Reaper> it will not start up
[12:55] <h1st0> Reaper: perhaps there is a lack of understanding its probably something simple.
[12:55] <[nrx] > Myrtti: calm down, it was a question. No undertones at all
[12:55] <Reaper> something is wrong with the Xserver
[12:55] <Myrtti> [nrx] : just a clarification, nothing more
[12:55] <h1st0> Reaper: Okay what is the error you are getting and what type of video card do you have?
[12:55] <Reaper> i have x3100
[12:56] <[nrx] > Myrtti: uhhh huh.
[12:56] <Loevborg> Guys, what's the "aptitude" equivalent of "apt-cache search term1 term2"? (i.e., conjunction)
[12:56] <h1st0> Reaper: who makes it? ATI Nvidia?
[12:56] <Reaper> intel i think
[12:56] <Frogzoo> Reaper: you tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"   ?
[12:56] <Reaper> yep
[12:56] <h1st0> Reaper: has it ever worked?
[12:56] <Reaper> put me through a long process that ends with nothing
[12:56] <Frogzoo> Reaper: grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:57] <[nrx] > fk
[12:57] <[nrx] > afk*
[12:57] <Reaper> yea all these commands are great but i'm not running linux right now
[12:57] <h1st0> Reaper: okay so you are on the computer you are trying to fix?
[12:57] <Reaper> yep
[12:57] <Frogzoo> Reaper: well we can't help you atm I guess
[12:57] <h1st0> Reaper: do you have internet access while you are in console on the computer?
[12:58] <Reaper> what?
[12:58] <Reaper> in console?
[12:58] <h1st0> Reaper: yes in text mode the little prompt that comes up after X bombs?
[12:58] <Frogzoo> Reaper: if you boot to linux, if you can get to a terminal with "ctrl alt f1" you can irc from there, while trying to fix X
[12:59] <h1st0> Frogzoo: is irssi on the cd?
[12:59] <Reaper> terminal?
[12:59] <h1st0> Reaper: a text terminal like a dos prompt in windows
[12:59] <Frogzoo> Reaper: as h1st0 points out, you'll need to install the irssi irc client to do this...
[12:59] <Reaper> yea
[12:59] <Reaper> how would i do that
[01:00] <h1st0> Reaper: boot to linux when X fails hit ctrl+alt+F1 and log in.  then type in sudo apt-get install irssi
[01:00] <Frogzoo> Reaper: from the command line 'sudo apt-get install irssi'
[01:00] <SlimeyPete> !apt-get
[01:00] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[01:00] <Amaranth> Reaper: Did Ubuntu work on the Live CD? I mean, it had to have for you to install it, right?
[01:01] <Reaper> i put the cd in
[01:01] <h1st0> Reaper: then once irssi is installed type it in the terminal "irssi"  without quotes ofcourse.  You can type in /server irc.freenode.net and then type in /j #ubuntu to connect to here.
[01:01] <Reaper> booted from it
[01:01] <Reaper> and it started to install
[01:01] <Reaper> then wouldn't let me go any further after the error
[01:01] <h1st0> Reaper: So you didn't use the live CD like GUI it was text based
[01:01] <Amaranth> Reaper: But the CD has a nice GUI, right? it's the 'Desktop CD'?
[01:01] <Reaper> yea
[01:01] <Reaper> GUI?
[01:01] <BernieMac> Frogzoo: do you have any other suggestion?
[01:01] <Amaranth> Reaper: GUI means windows and buttons and such
[01:02] <Amaranth> Reaper: Ok, what was the error?
[01:02] <Reaper> i turned the machine on with the cd in it
[01:02] <Amaranth> Reaper: I think these guys might be making things too complicated :)
[01:02] <Reaper> hit f12
[01:02] <Reaper> then booted from dvd
[01:02] <Reaper> then the ubuntu screen showed up
[01:02] <Reaper> no windows
[01:02] <Frogzoo> Reaper: oh the install didn't complete? well you should be trying to fix the install & rerunning it, rather than trying to fix a broken system
[01:03] <Reaper> no, it did complete
[01:03] <h1st0> Reaper: which cd did you download?
[01:03] <Amaranth> Reaper: Oh, it didn't even make it to the graphics in the installer?
[01:03] <Reaper> 7.04 desktop alternate cd
[01:03] <h1st0> Amaranth: I think he used the alternate iso
[01:03] <h1st0> yeap
[01:03] <Reaper> graphics?
[01:04] <Amaranth> Reaper: Ok so you did not use the CD that lets you _test_ if your computer works with Ubuntu before installing it
[01:04] <adac> I don't get vncserver to work correct with xfce...i only get grey window when i try to connect with vncviewer...anyone can help?
[01:04] <h1st0> Reaper: what type of PC do you have?
[01:04] <Amaranth> adac: Running compiz?
[01:04] <upgrayedd> my graphics where all wonkey, i had to install video drivers before i could ge into xserver
[01:04] <Reaper> i'm very mad right now and just want this retarded os to work, for the time i've put in, the results are not worth it
[01:04] <Reaper> it's a laptop
[01:04] <adac> Amaranth: no
[01:04] <Reaper> toshiba satellite
[01:04] <UDZGuru> hi there. just set up ubuntu 7.04 using the alternate iso
[01:05] <Amaranth> Reaper: You used the wrong CD to install it :/
[01:05] <h1st0> Reaper: oktanouc do you know what type of cpu like is it intel or amd
[01:05] <UDZGuru> now i activated the root account and did apt-get upgrade
[01:05] <Amaranth> Reaper: Do you know what kind of graphics card you have?
[01:05] <UDZGuru> this is what is get:
[01:05] <Reaper> oh now i'm dieing to know which one to use cuz i've already used all the desktop ones
[01:05] <Amaranth> Reaper: the 'alternative' CD is for advanced users
[01:05] <jrib> !enter | UDZGuru
[01:05] <ubotu> UDZGuru: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:05] <Amaranth> Reaper: If the 'desktop' CD doesn't work then your hardware doesn't work with Ubuntu
[01:05] <Frogzoo> BernieMac: yes, change the STOP_SERVICES=""    to     STOP_SERVICES="networking"
[01:05] <Amaranth> Reaper: At least not without some work
[01:05] <h1st0> Amaranth: thats not necessarily true
[01:06] <UDZGuru> http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/14972/
[01:06] <Reaper> i'd say 3 months is "some"
[01:06] <Amaranth> h1st0: Unless he has an ATI r500 it is pretty much true
[01:06] <gordonjcp> wooo, here goes
[01:06] <gordonjcp> I'm going to try installing XP
[01:06] <Reaper> nope
[01:06] <BernieMac> Frogzoo: what was the command to get there?
[01:06] <Reaper> i have X3100
[01:06] <h1st0> Reaper: use the go download the standard pc desktop cd.  NOt the alternate and boot to that.
[01:06] <Amaranth> Reaper: That's an r500
[01:06] <u-foka> hy can somebody help my with shorewall??
[01:07] <adac> Amaranth: where do you config or better which config file I have to edit for vncserver in ubuntu (xubuntu)?
[01:07] <h1st0> Amaranth: can't he use safe graphics mode or vesa drivers?
[01:07] <askand> Myaql gives me "Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)" why?
[01:07] <ajaxs> is beryl still been developed or has the whole process been shifted towards c-fusion ?
[01:07] <Frogzoo> BernieMac: gksu gedit /etc/default/acpi-support      find the line STOP_SERVICES=""       and make it read     STOP_SERVICES="networking"
[01:07] <askand> mysql*
[01:07] <Reaper> repeat that h1st0 in different words
[01:08] <Amaranth> Reaper: Plug your laptop into an ethernet cable, boot ubuntu in 'recovery' mode, run this command when it boots: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx && sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:08] <Amaranth> Reaper: write down that command so you remember it
[01:08] <UDZGuru> so. i enter apt-get upgrade (after doing apt-get update) and i get this: http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/14972/ anyone who knows what to do?
[01:09] <MeRodent> aMSN now requires tls. I have libgnutls13 installed according to synaptic. What do I need to do to fix this?
[01:09] <Amaranth> Reaper: it'll ask you a bunch of questions, just accept the defaults, choose yes, etc
[01:09] <Amaranth> Reaper: Except when it asks you what driver to use you want to choose 'fglrx' from the list
[01:09] <ajaxs> beryl-effects
[01:09] <Amaranth> adac: no idea
[01:10] <Amaranth> adac: my vnc experience is GNOME doing all the work for me
[01:10] <ajisin> hello
[01:10] <ajisin> :D
[01:10] <BernieMac> Frogzoo: it has STOP_SERVICES="mysql" already there. What do I do to add to that?
[01:10] <adac> Amaranth: For me its the same...only that fedora kde did all work ;)
[01:10] <Amaranth> Reaper: This is a known problem with new ATI cards, very annoying
[01:10] <osama_bin_laden> any new release from linux in ubuntu?
[01:10] <adac> don't buy ATi guys ;)
[01:11] <Frogzoo> BernieMac: STOP_SERVICES="mysql networking"
[01:11] <jrib> UDZGuru: runit like this so it's in english:  LANGUAGE=en apt-get upgrade
[01:11] <bullgard4> Compared with dmesg the kern.log file includes additional absolute timestamps. Are there more differences yet?
[01:11] <Amaranth> Luckily AMD just gave us specifications so Ubuntu 8.04 will at least have good 2D for these cards by default
[01:11] <Amaranth> of course that's over 6 months away
[01:11] <osama_bin_laden> ok
[01:11] <|brad|> 6 months is better then never

[01:19] <Myrtti> oOps: 1) don't repeat your question too often b) don't use excess flooding (lines, characters)
[01:19] <[nrx] > what the hell is "den"?
[01:19] <savvas> Myrtti: in separate folders or all in .fonts/ ?
[01:19] <Myrtti> savvas: which one you prefer

[01:19] <savvas> separate of course :)
[01:20] <ben_> I've got various external hard drives or volumes mounted or unmounted at varying times. When I start Feisty (GNOME), if one of these isn't mounted a gap in my workspace icons where it used to be is left. If I then mount that volume, it doesn't fill the gap but places itself underneath all my other icons. Basically it makes for a messy desktop and I keep having to "Clean up by Name". Is there...
[01:20] <Myrtti> I've tried just all in .fonts
[01:20] <ben_> ...an alternative to this?
[01:20] <Defult> hello
[01:20] <oOps> hi
[01:20] <gnubuntu> hey user
[01:21] <Frogzoo> ben_: disable volumes on the desktop?
[01:21] <Defult> I wonder how I can change defult startup operatingsystem between ubuntu and win xp
[01:21] <Frogzoo> Defult: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:21] <Defult> ok thanks
[01:21] <oOps> u can change dafult startup os
[01:21] <Moppa> anyone got any idea?
[01:21] <jrib> !please > Moppa (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:22] <Myrtti> jrib: /lastlog helps sometimes ;-)
[01:22] <jrib> Defult: look for the comments about "default", should be near the top
[01:22] <jrib> Myrtti: not people who just joined though
[01:22] <Myrtti> true
[01:22] <Moppa> jrib - sorry, didn't see that one
[01:22] <fatih> hi, i m newbie ubuntu user. i want to use desktop effects but i cant use them.  when i press  combinations like ctrl + alt + arrow , i cant see 3d effects. how can i fix it ?
[01:22] <ben_> Frogzoo: I want them to be there, I just want things to remain lined up when the mounted volumes chop and change. There's no point in GNOME leaving a gap where one of the icons was if it's not going to fill the gap when that icon comes back
[01:22] <BernieMac> Frogzoo: Thanks for trying! I really appreciate it. But if you don't have any more suggestions I'm gonna head to bed. Class in 2 and a half hours
[01:23] <Frogzoo> BernieMac: kk, cheers

[01:50] <[nrx] > AdmodX: it's all good :)
[01:50] <administrator> @h1sto ok let me check
[01:50] <Reaper> i said "if i got on a computer later today, could someone help me"
[01:50] <hrvatski1> i dont know how to do that
[01:50] <rambo3> !beryl
[01:50] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[01:50] <h1st0> Reaper: it would be a lot easier to help if you were online on one pc or even on the one you were trying to fix, while in linux.
[01:50] <administrator> hey! REAPER be clear please! we'll help you for sure!
[01:50] <h1st0> Reaper: And there are always people here 24/7
[01:51] <Reaper> who gave me the long command?
[01:51] <rambo3> hrvatski1: open terminal and type (imas #ubuntu-hr ako neznas): sudo apt-get remove --purge beryl beryl-manager emerald-themes
[01:51] <h1st0> Reaper: what the sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[01:52] <Reaper> yea
[01:52] <administrator> me! hehe
[01:52] <h1st0> Reaper: also you should try the desktop cd not the alternate.
[01:52] <Reaper> i have tried them all'
[01:52] <Reaper> the alternate one got me the furthest so far
[01:52] <KurdishSniper> guys, how can I make "compiz" and "Awat Windows Nav" to start at start up when ubuntu starts, rather than me doing it manually each time i log in?!
[01:52] <h1st0> Reaper: try the desktop cd and from the main menu try safe graphics mode option.
[01:52] <Tasmaniac> Moppa, whats ya /etc/network/interfaces file contain?
[01:52] <administrator> yeah! it seems it'll work with iphone! thanks
[01:53] <Reaper> don't work
[01:53] <JonJ> KurdishSniper: System -> Preferences -> Sessions
[01:53] <Moppa> Tasmaniac - auto eth2 iface eth2 inet dhcp
[01:53] <KurdishSniper> JonJ: thanks bro
[01:53] <Reaper> i'm going to bed, i have class in 4 hours
[01:53] <hrvatski1> rambo3 ok, done should it be completely removed now?
[01:53] <AdmodX> Moppa, Ohk thats good means we can actually load the module for your card. to asign IP run "ifconfig eth0 ${IP_ADDR} broadcast ${BROADCAST} netmask ${NETMASK} up"
[01:53] <h1st0> Reaper: alright but yes there will be people here later.
[01:53] <Reaper> ok
[01:53] <Reaper> thanks
[01:53] <Tasmaniac> moppa one line or 2?
[01:53] <JonJ> KurdishSniper: no problem :)
[01:53] <AdmodX> Moppa, substituting ${IP_ADDR} with your IP address, ${BROADCAST} with your broadcast address and ${NETMASK} with your netmask
[01:53] <Moppa> Tasmaniac - 2
[01:54] <rambo3> hrvatski1: beryl and config files are removed , so yes .
[01:54] <hrvatski1> and now i just reinstall
[01:54] <Moppa> AdmodX - what shall my broadcast adress be?
[01:54] <rambo3> hrvatski1: da

[01:55] <JonJ> KurdishSniper: I believe it's avant-window-navigator, you could check the terminal and see
[01:55] <rambo3> KurdishSniper: how about using tab complete
[01:55] <KurdishSniper> yeah it is
[01:55] <Tasmaniac> whoops shouldve put moppa in front of that

[01:56] <r_rehashed> MBR666: why are u using kdm on xubuntu? doesn't it defeat the purpose of using xfce?
[01:56] <KurdishSniper> rambo3: I am rather new to Linux, so i am trying things out here
[01:56] <h1st0> Reaper: if you check on www.ubuntuforums.org and search for x3100 you will see other peoples problems and how they fixed them.
[01:56] <MBR666> r_rehashed, 'cause i also have kde installed for whenever i want to use it
[01:56] <hrvatski1> rambo3 beryl is still installed though
[01:56] <jrib> Devo: use your windows cd to install windows on the virtual machine
[01:57] <Devo> jrib: What if I don't have a Windows cd?
[01:57] <jrib> Devo: then you can't have windows...
[01:57] <Devo> jrib: :'(
[01:57] <rambo3> hrvatski1: how do you know ?
[01:57] <MBR666> r_rehashed, anyway the point is i want to ditch kdm
[01:57] <crosby> anyone have any experience installing ubuntu on a sparc?

[01:58] <crosby> Moppa, broadcast is 192.168.0.255
[01:58] <AdmodX> Moppa, does ifconfig still show the same results ?
[01:58] <crosby> Moppa, broadcast is 192.168.0.0 is a network address
[01:58] <hrvatski1> rambo3 i tried the beryl settings manager and it opened and it is still green in the synaptic package manager

[01:59] <Moppa> AdmodX - no, now it shows ipnumber and so on. but no luck in pinging
[01:59] <hrvatski1> rambo3 it doesnt work euther
[01:59] <AdmodX> Moppa, thats okay. make sure you have both DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf
[02:00] <hrvatski1> rambo3
[02:00] <AdmodX> [nrx] , to what ?
[02:00] <hrvatski1> rambo3 does this matter at all?E: clvm: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3

[02:02] <doug__> why doesnt emerald themes start up whn i start the computer but beryl does
[02:02] <Jesus> [nrx] , Me?
[02:02] <AdmodX> Moppa, um are u able to contact your isp and retreive both your nameservers, because i have a feeling 192.168.0.1 isnt right.... and its a good idea to have both. Alternatively try this one 202.27.156.72
[02:02] <[nrx] > nm
[02:03] <AdmodX> lol
[02:03] <crosby> haha
[02:03] <Moppa> AdmodX - 192168.0.1 is my router
[02:03] <crosby> then that makes sense
[02:04] <rambo3> Moppa: it is correct
[02:04] <[nrx] > i'm bored :(
[02:04] <crosby> [nrx] , break something
[02:04] <Moppa> rambo3 - isn't my router supposed to be my nameserver?
[02:04] <AdmodX> Moppa, okay.. and you dont have dhcpcd installed ?
[02:04] <[nrx] > crosby: i did. The power adapter for my laptop. I'm having to hold the cable together with velcro
[02:05] <rambo3> Moppa: could be . whats wrong ?
[02:05] <Moppa> AdmodX - no
[02:05] <Cyclopes> what does 'apt-get autoremove' exactly does?
[02:05] <crosby> [nrx] , well thats no good

[02:06] <rambo3> Moppa: does dmesg | grep eth show any errors ?

[02:07] <crosby> [nrx] , why whats the problem?
[02:08] <anto> Heya.. i got a slight problem ever since i installed ubuntu 7.10 my music makes a sound att highpitch beats
[02:08] <Moppa> rambo3 - eth0 is identified (only got one nic in) but eth2 says link down
[02:08] <[nrx] > crosby: not entirely sure. Here at the office, I can get it on the wireless network with no problems.. at home, I'm having to select the network, drop to terminal and manually hit iwconfig with all the bits and even then, DNS is still an issue at times. It's taken me about 6 hours to get connectivity
[02:08] <[nrx] > crosby: i think it's ipv6 issues
[02:08] <hrvatski1> ramb3 i still get those three errors.

[02:09] <rambo3> Moppa: so what is your interface to router ?
[02:09] <[nrx] > crosby: no idea why either.. all i should have to change between home/office is essid and wep key
[02:09] <Tasmaniac> Moppa as in the iface you are trying to configure
[02:09] <KurdishSniper> guys, on windows i used to use cgywin, what do i use here to compile files (aka airsnort)?
[02:10] <Moppa> Tasmaniac - not anymore :S. but eth0 doesn't show up in ifconfig
[02:10] <rambo3> hrvatski1: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[02:10] <KurdishSniper> i mean on Ubuntu
[02:10] <IdleOne> KurdishSniper: sudo apt-get install build-essential will give you the tools needed to compile
[02:10] <KurdishSniper> IdleOne: thanks bro.
[02:11] <IdleOne> KurdishSniper: np
[02:11] <crosby> i only use 1 wireless network so i dont run into all kinds of problems
[02:11] <Moppa> rambo3 - i only got one installed atm
[02:11] <gogeta> and todays issue are lol
[02:11] <hrvatski1> rambo3 i just get a long list of errors, and it ends with the same three
[02:11] <[nrx] > crosby: definately something to do with wep key's too
[02:11] <jukkatron> i installed my pci wlan-card just now.. got it working.. but when i restarted.. the link quality shows 0 ?
[02:11] <Tasmaniac> moppa even in ifconfig -a?
[02:12] <KurdishSniper> "Couldn't find package build-essential"
[02:12] <rambo3> Moppa: and it is eth0. what do you get from typing : dhclient eth0
[02:12] <KurdishSniper> does that mean i have to download it?!
[02:12] <[nrx] > crosby: if i take wep off the router, it's fineish. but if it's on, it doesn't work right. the wep key is correct tho *shrugs* whatever tho :)

[02:19] <Some_ux> have not installed yet
[02:20] <Some_ux> just sniffing arround. trying to figure how tough it is going to be
[02:20] <gogeta> so your 64 bit install will run 32bit
[02:20] <ootm> Some_ux, it works fine on Feisty X86_64. I've installed it on quite a few servers
[02:20] <gogeta> well you gotta install it to see if thers any issues lol\

[02:21] <Some_ux> ootm: or did have to manually compile the thing
[02:21] <ootm> Some_ux, no - I always use the download from the vmware site - always have done

[02:25] <gogeta> apt-get install vmware-server
[02:25] <gogeta> done
[02:25] <gogeta> its outdated
[02:25] <[nrx] > |brad|: wb.
[02:25] <gogeta> vmware-server was beta then
[02:25] <Some_ux> ootm: cant reply, freenode has some sort of filtering
[02:25] <mkamal30> problem with real player
[02:25] <jukkatron> iwlist wlan0 scanning  wlan0   "no scan results"
[02:25] <ootm> Some_ux, ok
[02:25] <rambo3> Moppa: is this your problem ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/49121
[02:25] <ootm> Some_ux, just try it. it works fine
[02:25] <|brad|> [nrx] , |brad| = crosby
[02:26] <b33r> If I want to dual boot vista and feisty what OS should I install first?
[02:26] <hrvatski1> can anyone help me reinstall my ubuntu
[02:26] <ootm> Some_ux, never needed the anyany patch on ubuntu myself
[02:26] <Some_ux> ootm: i will try regular isntall
[02:26] <Some_ux> install
[02:26] <gogeta> and it will work
[02:26] <[nrx] > |brad|: you know, when you were as crosby and asked about sparc and ubuntu, i was gonna say "talk to |brad|"
[02:26] <gogeta> jeez
[02:26] <[nrx] > :P
[02:26] <ootm> Some_ux, yeh, if its packaged - use it :)
[02:26] <|brad|> haha
[02:26] <Cyclopes> where can i find 'ncurses-dev' ?
[02:26] <[nrx] > b33r: choice is yours, but maybe better installing Vista first.
[02:27] <gogeta> cough vista
[02:27] <ootm> b33r, I would always install windows first then linux second - purely because linux will then put grub as the boot allowing you to select win or linux
[02:27] <hrvatski1> HELP
[02:27] <gogeta> better idea
[02:27] <tomm1> Cyclopes, apt-get install libncurses-dev
[02:27] <gogeta> toos that vista in the bin
[02:27] <gogeta> install ubuntu
[02:27] <b33r> ok thanks for the info
[02:27] <Some_ux> ootm: you just wrote sudo apt-get install vmware-server ?
[02:27] <b33r> gogeta, I already have ubuntu
[02:27] <b33r> but I'm buying a new PC and I wanna try out vista on it
[02:27] <Moppa> rambo3 - i only got one card in atm
[02:27] <ootm> Some_ux, ive never done it like that - that was someone else here
[02:27] <b33r> just to check it out =)
[02:27] <gogeta> then just toss that vista cd in the bin
[02:28] <ootm> Some_ux, just try it :)
[02:28] <gogeta> i said it
[02:28] <gogeta> i installed it that way
[02:28] <|brad|> b33r, install vista first
[02:28] <Some_ux> ootm: I'm a linux newb
[02:28] <gogeta> no problem
[02:28] <Cyclopes> thanks tomm1
[02:28] <Moppa> rambo3 - and it diidn't work to assign dhcp during installation
[02:28] <b33r> ok thanks for the info guys
[02:28] <|brad|> b33r, vista will rewrite your mbr
[02:28] <b33r> that's what I was afraid of
[02:28] <gogeta> well he can burn the grub live cd
[02:28] <Moppa> rambo3 - i do have 2 entries in my iftab though
[02:28] <gogeta> and restore it after
[02:28] <[nrx] > vista doesn't like sharing a pc
[02:29] <gogeta> lol xp does it to
[02:29] <[nrx] > it gets all moody like a woman.
[02:29] <b33r> lol
[02:29] <ootm> hehe
[02:29] <hrvatski1> is there a system restore on linux

[02:29] <Myrtti> huh?
[02:29] <gogeta> wa
[02:29] <[nrx] > from/from*
[02:29] <gogeta> huh
[02:29] <rambo3> Moppa: that means ubuntu thinks you have 2 cards present
[02:29] <toxic_> 
[02:29] <|brad|> uh oh you woke her up
[02:29] <Moppa> rambo3 - what shall i do?
[02:29] <gogeta> linux system restore man that was a good one
[02:29] <tomm1> can anyone help me with alsa? i reinstalled it according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Lenovo3000C200_8922AZG but modprobe fails at snd_hda_codec
[02:29] <[nrx] > lol gogeta
[02:29] <Some_ux> ootm: so i need to register to get vmware ?
[02:30] <|brad|> !alsa
[02:30] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[02:30] <ootm> Some_ux, we all were at some stage
[02:30] <Moppa> rambo3 - but none of them are the mac that show up in ifconfig
[02:30] <|brad|> Some_ux, its a free register
[02:30] <gogeta> lol ootm back in redhat 6 days
[02:30] <gogeta> lol
[02:30] <Some_ux> |brad|: what does that mean ?
[02:30] <tomm1> |brad|, i know that, but alsa only supports my soundcard with a sourcecode patch, so i had to compile it myself
[02:30] <ootm> gogeta, RH9 for me
[02:30] <danux_> voil

[02:36] <Dark_Rain> gustavo, listen to [nrx] 
[02:36] <gustavo> [nrx] : its because he needs a server only for spamd
[02:36] <gustavo> its cpu hungry
[02:36] <gustavo> ;P
[02:37] <[nrx] > gustavo: i know.. that's what we're doing right now :P
[02:37] <[nrx] > it's in the process of being built

[02:46] <[nrx] > genii: :)
[02:46] <s0undt3ch> hello ppl
[02:47] <genii> [nrx] : Hi :)
[02:47] <s0undt3ch> I upgraded to grumpy, dam, video is really bad!!! now I'd like to downgrade and saw info here -> http://strongdynamic.blogspot.com/2004/11/apt-get-install-antidote.html <- yet, it does not work
[02:48] <s0undt3ch> what can I do to downgrade? I don't want an install from scratch please :)
[02:48] <Moppa> can anyone help me with my networkproblem?
[02:48] <npnufn> we have 20 systems in our office.  I would like to install a terminal server on each of them to administrate.  Which one is fast and efficient that can run on an avg system(1 GHz, 256MB);
[02:48] <gogeta> lol
[02:48] <gogeta> term servers are all lightwights
[02:49] <Tasmaniac> moppa another dumb question. Your router isnt set to only allow certain mac addresses is it?
[02:49] <gogeta> npnufn why not just use ssh
[02:49] <Moppa> Tasmaniac - nope
[02:49] <npnufn> gogeta; can you advice me some of the best servers which takes less resources.
[02:50] <Tasmaniac> moppa tried a different cable :)  (ok I'm clutching at straws)
[02:50] <Zerx> salve
[02:50] <gordonjcp> npnufn: what exactly are you trying to do?
[02:50] <Floating> can anyone tell me why ubuntu drains twice the batteri as vista did (which was insanely bad at using batteri) ?
[02:50] <Moppa> Tasmaniac - yes :P
[02:50] <gogeta> term servers
[02:50] <npnufn> a simple terminal is sufficient, ssh will have extra burden of encoding and decoding.
[02:50] <npnufn> I just want to admin all the systems from my system.
[02:50] <gordonjcp> npnufn: just a console?
[02:50] <npnufn> yes.
[02:50] <gogeta> thre 1ghz 256 mag machines
[02:50] <gordonjcp> use ssh
[02:50] <gogeta> ssh will work quickly
[02:51] <SlimeyPete> Floating: seems to depend on which laptop you have. I find that ubuntu is almost on a par with XP.
[02:51] <Zerx> mi sapete dire perch se con ubuntu feisty, se clicco su effetti desktop, mi da che l'estensione "Composite" non  disponibile?
[02:51] <gogeta> and is alot safer then a standerd term
[02:51] <npnufn> I'll try, but do you know any other terminal servers.
[02:51] <gordonjcp> npnufn: ssh is the standard, no reason to use anything else for it
[02:51] <Slacks2002> you guys wouldent hapen to know the microsoft phone numberz huh ?
[02:51] <Slacks2002> -.-
[02:51] <npnufn> safety is not important.  that's why I am looking for a simple one.
[02:51] <gordonjcp> npnufn: not really, there's telnet but no-one uses it these days
[02:51] <SlimeyPete> Floating: at a guess, your CPU isn't being throttled correctly, but I don't know how one would diagnose/fix that
[02:51] <gordonjcp> npnufn: except in extremely edge cases
[02:51] <gogeta> 1800microsoftsucks
[02:51] <gordonjcp> npnufn: ssh is as simple as it gets
[02:52] <gordonjcp> npnufn: if you configure it properly you don't even need a password ;-)
[02:52] <kekZpriester> well, on 1ghz machines you won't feel any difference between ssh and telnet - expect someone's cat-ing /dev/urandom

[02:53] <Slacks2002> I am looking for some help be it direct help or a point in the right direction or another hacking chat room like on irc or something. Anyway I need to know what I will need to learn to gain access to somebodys computer and take control much like Remote Desktop but secretly. I have 4 years to take what ever curses I need to or learn what ever languages I need to ect   ps Im talking about gaining access to {Windows}
[02:53] <npnufn> all the systems are sluggish due to the feisty.
[02:53] <gordonjcp> npnufn: shouldn't be sluggish
[02:53] <|brad|> Slacks2002, haha
[02:53] <jrib> !offtopic | Slacks2002
[02:53] <ubotu> Slacks2002: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:53] <npnufn> so I don't want to make them more sluggish with heavy services.
[02:54] <gordonjcp> npnufn: ssh isn't heavy
[02:54] <Zerx> mi sapete dire perch se con ubuntu feisty, se clicco su effetti desktop, mi da che l'estensione "Composite" non  disponibile?
[02:54] <pegger> npnufn: why are you wooried about ssh load
[02:54] <jrib> !it | Zerx
[02:54] <ubotu> Zerx: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[02:54] <gogeta> npufn xubuntu might be better for em
[02:54] <Floating> vista had only 3 hours of battery time - ubuntu has 1 hour - xp has 5 hours - can someone help me to get my battery to actually perform as xp with unbuntu?
[02:54] <gordonjcp> npnufn: I run sshd on a machine that's the equivalent of a 486-66MHz, and it makes absolutely no difference to the load
[02:54] <|brad|> ok im going to sleep now
[02:54] <gogeta> its a lighter version

[02:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about powermanagement - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:55] <npnufn> gogeta; gordonjcp, pegger.  thanks for the support.  I'll use ssh only.
[02:55] <LadyNikon> hmm
[02:55] <LadyNikon> Floating: linux and power management
[02:55] <Some_ux> what is the vmware client package good for ?
[02:55] <praet> LadyNikon: System > Preferences > Power management
[02:56] <Moppa> Tasmaniac - i think i can kiss you now :p. it worked with an other cable :P. don't really know why :P
[02:56] <LadyNikon> praet: thanks i was trying to find a good link for Floating to explain it
[02:56] <Floating> System > Preferences > Power management  doent allow much alterations
[02:56] <LadyNikon> there are some things you can do in the kernel
[02:56] <Tasmaniac> Moopa eek no thanks :) glad my stupid suggestions worked :)
[02:57] <LadyNikon> but its eh.. in reguards to power management.. at least the last time i tried
[02:57] <Tasmaniac> Moppa even
[02:57] <Moppa> Tasmaniac - haha. then my friend must have lied to me. i asked if it showed activity. and hes like "Yes".
[02:58] <Moppa> :P
[02:58] <LadyNikon> i cant remember the term
[02:58] <LadyNikon> side stepping or downstepping
[02:58] <LadyNikon> Floating: its when your cpu uses less power when you arent using it
[02:58] <Floating> ok
[02:59] <Tasmaniac> Moppa I'll send you the bill later :)
[03:00] <Moppa> Tasmaniac - :P
[03:00] <Moppa> Well, where do i find the configfiles for apache?
[03:00] <SlimeyPete> /etc/apache2
[03:01] <SeanTater> My computer won't multi-thread even though I have a dual core processor.. why?
[03:03] <SeanTater> I tried this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pthreads example  and compiled it, but uit shows that the execution is tatally serial..
[03:03] <Tasmaniac> moppa /etc/apache2
[03:03] <Moppa> Tasmaniac - thx
[03:04] <Tasmaniac> moppa that bills getting bigger :)
[03:04] <SlimeyPete> SeanTater: maybe you have to turn on thread support in your compiler (just a guess)
[03:04] <SeanTater> SlimeyPete: How would that be?
[03:04] <SlimeyPete> dunno. What language? C?
[03:05] <SeanTater> SlimeyPete: yes, and the code is on that wikipedia page
[03:06] <npnufn> how can I add multiple gateways to my network configuration?
[03:07] <Tasmaniac> moppa just to make you happy its taken me about 5 weeks of off and on trying to get wep working on ubuntu (finally read the help pages properly and found out the key needed - in it) :)
[03:07] <SlimeyPete> SeanTater: looks like gcc has a -pthread flag
[03:07] <SlimeyPete> might be worth a try
[03:08] <npnufn> like we have 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3 which are 3 routers.  I want to make the network much tolerable if one fails then the client should router to the 2nd router.
[03:08] <npnufn> is it possible?
[03:08] <SeanTater> SlimeyPete: I'll try that, just a second
[03:09] <SeanTater> SlimeyPete: still nothing, sorry, gtg

[03:14] <nickpierpoint> Hi everyone. I run Fedora at the moment but dislike having to do a CD (non-yum) upgrade with each new version. Do you find the Ubuntu upgrade process work for major upgrades? i.e. once installed can Ubuntu be upgraded indefinitely via the network.
[03:14] <amz`> ok, ok...
[03:15] <Some_ux> i do indeed get all the errors indicated in the posts i read
[03:15] <Some_ux> it is most certainly not a simple install
[03:15] <gordonjcp> amz`: or maybe "I know how to configure Debian but I'd rather just fling Ubuntu on then spend the time I saved with my girlfriend"
[03:16] <Augustus_Kolya> I could install Debian, the truth is it's just too much of a mess to screw around with
[03:16] <bingodeville> some_ux: is it erroring on configuration of VMMON?
[03:16] <amz`> know how to install AM-DR_SMC2532W-B_V1_V2_WPA
[03:16] <amz`> ?:>
[03:16] <amz`> wifi ;>
[03:16] <Some_ux> bingodeville: one of them
[03:16] <slackern> nickpierpoint: It usually works but there is always chances of things breaking though
[03:16] <declan> nickpierpoint: I think people prefer to do a fresh install each time, since that is more reliable. The internet upgrade is supposed to work, but a lot depends on how you have set up your system.
[03:16] <gordonjcp> amz`: cheap shitty binary-only driver wifi
[03:16] <Augustus_Kolya> go three versions back in Debian, and you're all the way to 1996
[03:17] <gordonjcp> amz`: no, and guess what, I don't need to
[03:17] <amz`> wher i can download ;P
[03:17] <amz`> *where
[03:17] <gordonjcp> amz`: because of the time I save using Ubuntu, I can afford to buy *real* wifi cards

[03:17] <bingodeville> Some_ux: vmware-any-any-update113 will fix the vmmon problem, I ran into that error installing vmware the other day
[03:17] <npnufn> how can I add multiple gateways to my network configuration?
[03:17] <npnufn> like we have 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3 which are 3 routers.  I want to make the network much tolerable if one fails then the client should router to the 2nd router.
[03:17] <Some_ux> bingodeville: I get a whole list of missing resource
[03:18] <Some_ux> s
[03:18] <npnufn> is it possible?
[03:18] <Some_ux> libX11 libc and some othersw
[03:18] <Augustus_Kolya> then theres the fantabulous 23 CD installation set
[03:18] <Augustus_Kolya> sweet
[03:18] <Augustus_Kolya> and a default installation that gives me tons of crap I don't need
[03:19] <bingodeville> some_ux: check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=183209 it sounds like you may be missing dependencies
[03:19] <Some_ux> attempting: sudo apt-get install  libx11-6 libxtst6 libice-dev libsm-dev libxt6
[03:19] <Augustus_Kolya> they put the whole repo on the CD's because Debian is the only operating system in the world that moves slow enough to get away with that
[03:20] <erik__> Hi All, I'm having a networking problem that seems very persistent and is quite weird (even while I'm no novice Linux user). Almost every time I load a page in Firefox or Konqueror I get "The connection was reset" or "Connection to host www.anything.com is broken." respectively. Every second reload it works, but all the externally sourced elements do not work (until I refresh it again). While this removes a lot of unwanted adds, it makes the use
[03:20] <erik__> of webapps and mashups unbearable and my 'reload' button is wearing out (figuratively speaking). The problem is quite low level as the cross browser nature suggests, nmap for example gives many lines of this on stdout: "Strange read error from 192.168.x.9: Transport endpoint is not connected". My resolv.conf's nameserver (only entry) is set to my router box. Another (WinXP) PC in the same network doesn't have THIS problem. Any hits? TIA!
[03:20] <tarntow> What would be the reason why only gxine has no sound but other applications are working fine?
[03:21] <gordonjcp> erik__: are you using Tor or something?
[03:23] <Some_ux> I will try the vmware-any-any-update109.tar.gz patch
[03:24] <OXIj> can kvm be used without a GUI?
[03:24] <jhaig> I've just seen an interview with Malcomy Yates (at VM World) on YouTube.  At the end he mentions a "tickless kernel" which should give better battery life.  What is a "tickless kernel" and, more importantly, what sort of battery might I be able to expect from my laptop which currently has Edgy, and a full battery last for 1.5 to 2 hours?
[03:24] <OXIj> it reguies qemu and i have only tty
[03:26] <erUSUL> jhaig: that feature entered in the 2.6.21 kernel iirc
[03:26] <jhaig> erUSUL: Yes, he mentions that Gutsy will have it.
[03:27] <DigeratiX> when I want to connect to the remote ubuntu at home that has remote desktop enabled and password protected, what port do I open on the router?
[03:27] <erik__> gordonjcp: No Tor here, no. Good suggestion though. I'm even not connected through wireless but direct ethernet.
[03:27] <jhaig> erUSUL: I meant to ask what sort of battery life might I expect if I upgrade to Gutsy.
[03:27] <erUSUL> jhaig: http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_21#head-8547911895fda9cdff32a94771c8f5706d66bba0
[03:27] <Kwafoo> how to install Edubuntu 's icon ?? except gnome-look ;it's look like ubuntu studio can install from source??
[03:28] <erUSUL> jhaig: hard to know you can install only the gutsy kernel on feisty and checkout. But the problems with battery life it is in userspace that wakes up the ekrnel more times per second that it should
[03:29] <huji> Hi all.
[03:29] <huji> Hi Ttilus
[03:30] <huji> A question I always asked myself is: Why don't we have a GUI apt-get
[03:30] <frogzoo> huji: it's called synaptic
[03:30] <dgjones> huji, do you mean something like synaptic
[03:30] <frogzoo> huji: there's also 'add/remove programs' in the menu
[03:30] <huji> yes, I mean something "like" synaptic
[03:30] <Some_ux> damn, still wont work, VMWare still cant find some files
[03:30] <huji> but with the powers of apt-get
[03:30] <jhaig> erUSUL: I was going to wait for the next LTS before upgrading, but if I can get better battery life I might consider it now.  Mind you, I procrastinated so long about upgrading to Feisty, so maybe it will be 6 months before I decide anyway.  :-)
[03:31] <Some_ux> this is anything but smooth
[03:31] <frogzoo> jhaig: you're on dapper? oh, battery will suck
[03:32] <jhaig> frogzoo: No, on Edgy.
[03:32] <huji> frogzoo, may be I'm wrong but neither add/remove nor synaptic are as good as apt-get
[03:32] <erUSUL> jhaig: http://www.linuxpowertop.org/success.php
[03:32] <jhaig> frogzoo: I think the battery is supposed to be 2 hours (based on Windows) and that is pretty much what I get.
[03:33] <frogzoo> jhaig: ok, cool
[03:33] <huji> frogzoo, or is it that I'm mistaken?
[03:33] <jhaig> frogzoo: but I wouldn't mind if it were longer.  :-)
[03:34] <erik__> gordonjcp: No Tor here, no. Good suggestion though. I'm even not connected through wireless but direct ethernet. (not sure if you got this, sorry if you're just taking your time, that would be fine)
[03:35] <handyguy33> has anyone been losing random files or folders?
[03:36] <Some_ux> i get cant find /usr/src/linux/include ?
[03:36] <Some_ux> what in the blazes ?
[03:36] <Jygzy-> checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X libraries. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[03:37] <sysmin> Anyone have an idea what would cause my display running at 1280x800 to display GTK items large?
[03:37] <erik__> sysmin: It has to do with the DPI setting, but I'm not sure where to configure that
[03:37] <Some_ux> ok, the installation asks me: What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
[03:37] <Some_ux> kernel ?
[03:38] <gordonjcp> erik__: hmmm, strange
[03:38] <gordonjcp> erik__: and this is on all apps?
[03:38] <erUSUL> Some_ux: 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)'
[03:38] <gordonjcp> erik__: have you got some really weird network card, or a really weird router/firewall?
[03:38] <Some_ux> erUSUL: verbatim ?
[03:39] <huji> something else
[03:39] <huji> do we have something like windows task manager?
[03:39] <erik__> gordonjcp: well, wget's also fail the first time but auto-retry and immediately work then. NIC has always worked fine
[03:39] <huji> where open processes are list, in a GUI?
[03:39] <erUSUL> Some_ux: yes without the '

[03:39] <Some_ux> k
[03:39] <xirv> i have a serious problem with ubuntu
[03:39] <xirv> can someone help?
[03:39] <erUSUL> huji: System>Admin>System Monitor
[03:40] <erUSUL> !ask | xirv
[03:40] <ubotu> xirv: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:40] <xirv> ok
[03:40] <erik__> gordonjcp: Let me reconnect with WIFI, not sure if I tried that as well, may give us some more info... (i need to have it working wire anyway)
[03:40] <xirv> well, everything was ok with my ubuntu install
[03:40] <xirv> until i made the foolish mistake of installing an alpha program
[03:40] <xirv> called xreal
[03:40] <xirv> it crashed my ubuntu install
[03:40] <xirv> so i pressed reset
[03:40] <huji> okay, Another question. Can we change Ubuntu (Gnome) to do something when the "windows" button of the keyboard is pressed?
[03:41] <xirv> when ubuntu was restarted it gave a message about the filesystem not being clean
[03:41] <bryan> i run xubuntu. i installed kde and kdm so i could run them whenever. i disabled kdm and now can't get in to x11. i wanted to remove kdm so i could put GDM in its place and remove KDE. how do i fix my issue here?
[03:41] <Illusia> wowee what a pack in here LOL
[03:41] <xirv> and when it got to gnome everything was slow to load
[03:41] <Some_ux> he asks me: do you want to use NAT networking ?
[03:41] <Some_ux> what is that ?
[03:42] <erUSUL> Some_ux: what are you installing?
[03:42] <DigeratiX>  when I want to connect to the remote ubuntu at home that has remote desktop enabled and password protected, what port do I open on the router? also ip : port is a no go with vnc
[03:42] <bryan> how do i reconfigure x11 display manager to use gdm from console?
[03:42] <Some_ux> erUSUL: VMWare
[03:42] <handyguy33> Files on my server are disappearing. Does anyone here have an idea why?
[03:42] <huji> any idea?
[03:43] <erik__> gordonjcp: Via wifi it is the same.
[03:43] <erUSUL> Some_ux: NAT i what routers do to serve a single connection to many machines (or just one). Oversimplifying of course
[03:43] <Paddy_EIRE> handyguy33, does anyone else but you have access
[03:43] <AeroStick> help
[03:43] <Some_ux> I see

[03:44] <ubotu> AeroStick: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:44] <taime1> theoretically, i can piece together an icon set, and tarball it for later use cant i?
[03:44] <erUSUL> pablo_: noacpi? but it seems overkill
[03:44] <Pici> taime1: Theoretically, yes.
[03:45] <AeroStick> this screen capables of 1680X1024, but choices are limited to 1024X768
[03:45] <baudthief> Any way to make ultravnc not create a new 'X' desktop, and just take control of an existing one?
[03:45] <taime1> well, they are all working so far on this box, so hopefully it will on others...
[03:45] <AeroStick> ok, (about the enter and punctuation)

[03:45] <syock> I cannot record on Sound Recorder. I've forgotten how to setup my mike so that it'll be used by the app
[03:45] <bryan> any ideas how to reconfigure x11 to use gdm? from console?
[03:45] <syock> Can someone give a hint?
[03:45] <aryr100> hello all
[03:45] <syock> Why do I have 3 capture/input source anyway?
[03:46] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, also have you tried the restricted drivers manager in 'system > administration > restricted drivers manager' ??
[03:46] <AeroStick> yes, i tried
[03:46] <Paddy_EIRE> and
[03:46] <aryr100> using this cmd ( sudo gedit /ect/apt/sources.list) when it opens i get a blank screen ?
[03:46] <SlimeyPete> aryr100: etc, not ect
[03:47] <bryan> :help
[03:47] <Floating> where do i edit kernel optins?
[03:47] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, did you read this yet http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:47] <Floating> *options
[03:47] <AeroStick> Paddy_EIRE, it did not work, so i installed envy and downloaded nvidia drivers, it's the same for now

[03:47] <Paddy_EIRE> !envy
[03:47] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!

[03:47] <sysmin> erik__: Thanks, it was actually a font rendering problem. I had to make a Gconf settings change. Appreciate it.
[03:47] <Floating> ok tx
[03:47] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, dont use envy I and basically everyone else will not support that
[03:48] <Some_ux> OK. so it says: The configuration of VMware Server 1.0.3 build-44356 for Linux for this running

[03:48] <Some_ux> what now ?
[03:48] <AeroStick> Paddy_EIRE, would you like me to check that link out or should i listen to you now?
[03:48] <bryan> ty for the help. got x started
[03:48] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, read the link first
[03:48] <AeroStick> ok, i can unintall it, but need a solution..:)
[03:48] <AeroStick> ok
[03:48] <AeroStick> Paddy_EIRE, now i'm checking (how will i uninstall it, synaptic?
[03:48] <erik__> sysmin: Glad I could help with so little help ;)
[03:49] <bryan> q
[03:49] <xir2> disconnected
[03:49] <xir2> so did anyone read my question?
[03:49] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, how did you install it.. try 'sudo aptitude purge envy'
[03:49] <AeroStick> Paddy_EIRE: should i uninstall that envy first?
[03:49] <AeroStick> ok, i'm tryin' now..
[03:50] <xir2> well?????
[03:50] <AeroStick> Paddy_EIRE: by the way, should i uninstall it after removing the nvidia drivers it did, or not?
[03:50] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, wait
[03:50] <Some_ux> what is the linux command used to get the list of working processes ?
[03:50] <erik__> xir2: You could repeat the question. It's not in my history buffer anymore
[03:50] <AeroStick> Paddy_EIRE... waiting...
[03:50] <Zenerek> ok guys i may soon be trying to read files from my other winxp box, point is i know i will have to deal with samba and i need a help guide, one that does not give all the needed extra options like man files
[03:51] <xir2> ok
[03:51] <xir2> i made the foolish mistake of installing a program called xreal on ubuntu
[03:51] <SlimeyPete> !samba | Zenerek
[03:51] <ubotu> Zenerek: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[03:51] <xir2> when i started it, it crashed ubuntu
[03:51] <xir2> i had to reset by pressing the reset button
[03:52] <xir2> when ubuntu restarted
[03:52] <xir2> it gave an error about the filesystem not being clean
[03:52] <nickpierpoint> declan, slackern: thanks. Sounds like it's pretty similar for Fedora and Ubuntu. The Yum approach is supposed to work but not recommended. I *thought* with Ubuntu the network install was the recommended approach for upgrades.
[03:52] <AeroStick> (Please listen to that one thing before the solution of my situation about graphic card: i had an ati rade on before, today i replaced it with an invidia (mean i bought another card), it was bad before, cause 3d were not working, now.....
[03:52] <xir2> everytime i start ubuntu now it gives fsck messages
[03:52] <xir2> and everything is slow to start
[03:52] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, I'm sorry but I do can not really help you any further, you have already used envy and I just dont support or endorse its use... you had a lesser problem before you used it!!  Keep asking here though someone may help you
[03:52] <AeroStick> .... i don't know, radeon could make ubuntu start in correct resolution at least..:(
[03:53] <SeanTater> SlimeyPete: I'm back -- any more advice on why multithreading isn't working?
[03:53] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, your resolution problem would have been easier to handle
[03:53] <AeroStick> Paddy_EIRE... we may not use 4 letter words, don't we...:( your were like that...
[03:53] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, ...?
[03:53] <xir2> well???
[03:53] <SlimeyPete> SeanTater: 'fraid I'm out of ideas, sorry. Try #gcc?
[03:54] <erik__> xir2: Maybe you need to do a clean fsck and really fix anything that can be fixed (hopefully you will not have a lot of problems). You can start ubuntu in repair mode by changing the kernel parameter and adding init=/bin/bash . You'll probably get busybox (minmal shell environment)
[03:54] <SeanTater> SlimeyPete: okay -- thanks
[03:54] <erik__> xir2: From there you can try to e2fsck -f /dev/[your problematic partition] 
[03:54] <AeroStick> how should i know, by reading... do you know how much things to be read on internet about linux stuff. i don't, but i can guess that it'll take more than a human being life time...:( :( :(
[03:54] <null> one question, what is the way to start the second kernel if the first fails on grub?
[03:54] <logreeval> Hi, i have three temps in the lm-sensors m/b, cpu and temp3......i was just wondering what the Temp3 is?
[03:54] <npnufn> how can I add multiple gateways to my network configuration?
[03:54] <AeroStick> i'm tired dudes...:(
[03:54] <xir2> how do i change the kernel parameter
[03:55] <Zenerek>  AeroStick what the prob?
[03:55] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, not at all.. If you had of read more than 1 page about envy on the official ubuntu forums or the official wiki atleast you would have been better informed
[03:55] <AeroStick> i am living in istanbul, means, my main language is known as turkish, and there's always almost noone that can help in turkish channel..:(
[03:55] <handyguy33> paddy EIRE: have you ever run across disappearing files before? I really have to fix this today. It's a company server and i'm holding up production.
[03:55] <AeroStick> nope Paddy_EIRE, you're not a reason
[03:55] <xir2> so i just type e2fsck -f /dev/[your problematic partition]  now, on the termindal?
[03:56] <AeroStick> the problem is resolution, and added.. the envy thing
[03:56] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, you could have at least asked about envy in here before you dove right in ;)
[03:56] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, go to #Paddy_EIRE
[03:56] <Zenerek> i have envy but never used it, i figured it was worth doing the hard way, was much easier than getting widescreen
[03:56] <erik__> gordon
[03:57] <boysaretoys> heiiiiiiiiii
[03:57] <AeroStick> i learned about it before these days, i told i's using an ati s.it, so i's crawling for help to get the 3d thing (i even could not watch movies), so in turkey we say: if you fall to the sea you (need to) hold on a snake...
[03:57] <AeroStick> :(
[03:58] <pablo_> erSUL: i did lspci -vv and i see that the nic and audio controller are using the same irq

[04:10] <sleon> sahil: looks like it is possible to make it work under linux
[04:10] <Paddy_EIRE> handyguy33, I would not be the best person to ask regards server related issues .. sorry
[04:10] <sahil> sleon, thanks a lot i am downloading the driver as we speak :D
[04:10] <AeroStick> you won't believe me what happened, Paddy_EIRE
[04:10] <Paddy_EIRE> ?
[04:10] <xirv> hello
[04:10] <sleon> sahil: and also read the gentoo thing too
[04:10] <xirv> again
[04:10] <sleon> sahil: http://tuxmobil.org/smart_linux.html
[04:10] <xirv> fsck gives a warning not to run it on a mounted partition
[04:10] <sleon> sahil: this is also a very good resource
[04:11] <AeroStick> Paddy_EIRE; immediately after restarting session, there appeared whole screen of nvidia logo..:D
[04:11] <sahil> i wanna try gentoo someday, but its only for very advanced users eh
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, thought so
[04:11] <AeroStick> it's the correct resolution now
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, nice one
[04:11] <Kwanun> is ubuntu good?
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> Kwafoo, no its terrible
[04:11] <AeroStick> i hope it won't cause locks again, i'll try the desktop effects now...
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> :P
[04:11] <handyguy33> could anyone give me some help. this is a very serious situation. again, i'm randomly losing entire folders from my server
[04:11] <Zenerek> aerostick: you got widscreen?
[04:12] <jhaig> handyguy33: What folders are disappearing?
[04:12] <Paddy_EIRE> Zenerek, I think his system locked up again
[04:12] <xirv> so what do i do?
[04:12] <xirv> how do i enter recovery mode?
[04:12] <Paddy_EIRE> Zenerek, I helped as best I could but he really should not have used envy
[04:13] <Kwanun> is ubuntu good?
[04:13] <handyguy33> jhaig; mostly shared folders on my compay's server. entire department folders have just disappeared
[04:13] <erik__> gordonjcp: Both NICs work fine (wired and wireless, it's laptop) running ubuntu. I've tried some stuff with nsswitch.conf to no avail.
[04:13] <Paddy_EIRE> xirv, restart comp.. then choose recovery option in grub
[04:13] <jhaig> handyguy33: Are you using automount?
[04:13] <gordonjcp> erik__: strange
[04:13] <Paddy_EIRE> xirv, press escape if need be to display your grub boot menu
[04:13] <handyguy33> i believe so, yes
[04:13] <gordonjcp> erik__: only computer on the network segment?
[04:14] <jhaig> handyguy33: Try accessing one of these directories that have disappeared.  Eg, try "ls /missing/directory/name"
[04:14] <erik__> gordonjcp: Together with an IP phone (working) and winXP laptop (working) and the router itself
[04:14] <Kwanun> is ubuntu good????????
[04:14] <Starcraftmazter> yes
[04:14] <Zenerek> Paddy_EIRE: well i chose to do it the hardway, i installed nvidia driver, which was easy, what was hard was getting my resolution of 1280x720 to work, i had to search the whole net to make it work
[04:14] <davidthedrake> Kwanun, Better than good.
[04:14] <handyguy33> jhaig; ok brb
[04:14] <erik__> gordonjcp: This one is running Kubuntu
[04:15] <Paddy_EIRE> Zenerek, you just put the appropriate entries in xorg.cong
[04:15] <Paddy_EIRE> easy
[04:15] <erik__> Kwanun: It's a bad place to ask this if you want a fair/unbiassed answer.
[04:15] <xirv> can i run fsck in recovery mode?
[04:15] <xirv> help. im a newbie to ubuntu, and i dont want to mess my filesystem up
[04:15] <Kwanun> ubuntu edutu xuntu,what's the difference
[04:15] <SlimeyPete> yeah, you can run it in recovery mode
[04:15] <SlimeyPete> Kwanun: different desktop environments
[04:15] <davidthedrake> Kwanun, different packages with different desktops
[04:15] <Paddy_EIRE> Kwanun, search the net google and become informed this is a support channel
[04:15] <Zenerek> Paddy_EIRE: oh i know that now, the question is where were you when i needed that info ;)
[04:16] <Paddy_EIRE> Zenerek, lol
[04:16] <handyguy33> jhaig; got "no such file or directory"
[04:16] <Kwanun> im new to it.which environments should i take
[04:17] <SlimeyPete> Kwanun: ubuntu or kubuntu are best for newbies.
[04:17] <Zenerek> Paddy_EIRE: yeah i ended up finding this site that has a custom xorg generator, with that and a little hand work i am enjoying my 1280x720
[04:17] <davidthedrake> Zenerek, you should familiarize yourself with the community section of help.ubuntu.com
[04:17] <SlimeyPete> because they're more "windows-like" than xubuntu
[04:17] <Kwanun> for laptops?
[04:17] <samu2> I'm running ubuntu 7.04 in parallels workstation on vista. every time i start it, i have to manually enable the network. how can I get it to automatically enable the wired network when i start ubuntu?
[04:17] <davidthedrake> Zenerek, it's an EXCELLENT resource for all things Ubuntu
[04:17] <SlimeyPete> Kwanun: how old's the laptop?
[04:17] <Kwanun> kubuntu is more on kde interface?or ubuntu supports kde interace?
[04:17] <Kwanun> it's a new laptop
[04:18] <snkenjoi> Hi guys, I've got some questions about installing/configuring my ATI card. Does anyone have a few spare mins to help me?
[04:18] <erik__> Kwanun: Ubuntu is widely supported. There are a couple of Ubuntu flavors. They say Ubuntu is most 'idiot proof', and I think that Kubuntu is a little bit more for the power users, but also a bit more similar to Windows
[04:18] <SlimeyPete> Kwanun: kubuntu is kde, ubuntu is gnome. H
[04:18] <Paddy_EIRE> Kwanun, you can use whatever DE you want
[04:18] <eNtRoPiA> hi to all people :)
[04:18] <faileas> Kwanun: kubuntu is ubuntu with KDE ;)
[04:18] <Jygzy-> hey how do i open XMMS from SSH Console?
[04:18] <eNtRoPiA> i've a little problem..
[04:18] <SlimeyPete> Kwanun: but you can turn ubuntu into kubuntu and vice-versa
[04:18] <SlimeyPete> just by installing a package
[04:18] <eNtRoPiA> .i've try to compile VMD on ubuntu Feisty..
[04:18] <Kwanun> ubuntu is just gnome right?
[04:18] <Jygzy-> ** CRITICAL **: Unable to open display
[04:18] <blackbox> hey
[04:18] <jhaig> handyguy33: OK, so that's not it then.
[04:18] <blackbox> anybody in here running ubuntu 7.04?
[04:19] <Zenerek> davidthedrake: hmm i'll keep that in mind.... i prefer most forms of help as long as i don't have to look at man files...some are just...hard to follow
[04:19] <eNtRoPiA> and i' have to modify the source code of VMD....the compiling going good...but when arrive to the end... it says me..
[04:19] <eNtRoPiA> Linking  vmd_LINUXAMD64 ...
[04:19] <eNtRoPiA> /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmolfile_plugin
[04:19] <eNtRoPiA> collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
[04:19] <eNtRoPiA> make: *** [vmd_LINUXAMD64]  Error 1
[04:19] <davidthedrake> Zenerek, the guides there have been super-helpful in all the installations on the many computers I've done. I usually don't have to look much further than there.
[04:19] <handyguy33> jhaig; can i contact you directly?
[04:19] <eNtRoPiA> how i can solve this? tanks..
[04:19] <jhaig> handyguy33: What directory specifically is disappearing?
[04:19] <blackbox> hey people
[04:19] <jhaig> handyguy33: In what sense?
[04:19] <davidthedrake> Hello blackbox
[04:20] <blackbox> hey david
[04:20] <Kwanun> sorry i don't get it?ubuntu is gnome by default and kubuntu is kde by default?
[04:20] <blackbox> anybody in here installed pidgin ?
[04:20] <davidthedrake> Kwanun, pretty much.
[04:20] <jhaig> Kwanun: Yes.
[04:20] <erik__> Kwanun: You got it
[04:20] <blackbox> having some problems
[04:20] <AeroStick> Paddy_EIRE; there's somn' wrong, computer locks; i think probably reaons is the refresh rate, who can tell me what values should be added to the monitor section
[04:20] <davidthedrake> !ask | blackbox
[04:20] <ubotu> blackbox: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:20] <snkenjoi> new ATI drivers, dual monitors, compiz, help, etc.
[04:20] <blackbox> i installed it from source and it runs but it doesn't display text
[04:20] <Kwanun> thx
[04:20] <Some_ux> I need some help with vmware. how do i use the thing once it is installed ?
[04:20] <blackbox> it just displays boxes
[04:20] <Kwanun> i'll download kde i think kde is cool
[04:20] <handyguy33> jhaig;just thru here, i've got quite a bit of text to write for a public page
[04:21] <jrib> !vmware > Some_ux (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:21] <Kwanun> does ubuntu support yum?
[04:21] <faileas> no
[04:21] <jhaig> handyguy33: If you mean via \msg, then yes, but if we stay in this channel  then someone else might be able to answer your questions.
[04:21] <faileas> it uses apt, and its front ends
[04:21] <blackbox> so can anyone tell me wtf is going on with pidgin?
[04:21] <handyguy33> cool
[04:21] <blackbox> it won't display text
[04:21] <jrib> Some_ux: basically, after you create the VM, you double click on it
[04:21] <obelix_> hi. anyone who knows about encoding? anyone from greece?

[04:22] <faileas> o0
[04:22] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, what is the exact model of your monitor..?  and I doubt the refresh rate would lock up your comp its something else
[04:22] <Zenerek> damn typos

[04:23] <AeroStick> Samsung SyncMaster 226BW, Paddy_EIRE
[04:23] <blackbox> well how do i remove something i installed from source?
[04:23] <jrib> Some_ux: try #vmware if no one here knows
[04:23] <family> who in here is using the 64bit ubuntu 7.04
[04:23] <handyguy33> jhaig; i created a folder in the home folder of the server (running dapper) then i created sub-folders for each of the department lead hands. they keep all of their important docs in those folders. two of those department folders disappeared and some random files in other folders.
[04:24] <Some_ux> jrib: reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware
[04:24] <baudthief> AeroStick: I've got two 226BW's, they rock!
[04:24] <faileas> blackbox: some apps have uninstall scripts, else you'd need to delete where its placed manually i suspect
[04:24] <obelix_> ubotu: ellinas eisai?
[04:24] <AeroStick> yeeeeaaaahh..:)
[04:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ellinas eisai? - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:24] <jrib> !anyone | family
[04:24] <ubotu> family: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:24] <AeroStick> but if you can configure the graphic card driver...:(
[04:24] <Mdk988654> blackbox: try the Pidgin packages from www.getdeb.net
[04:24] <AeroStick> (noooo.....:D)
[04:24] <genii> blackbox: If doing sudo make uninstall does not work, try either sudo make clean   or  sudo make dist-clean    ... in same dir you did original make install   from

[04:24] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:24] <Kwanun> kde vs gnome which is better
[04:24] <family> Ok, does the 64bit version suck ?
[04:25] <ninnemana> so i installed vista and the windows boot loader took over my desktop, now it won't let me access Ubuntu, can anyone help?
[04:25] <Zenerek> AeroStick: what is the problem?
[04:25] <baudthief> AeroStick: heh I had to turn the gamma up on my nvidia card
[04:25] <blackbox> thanks
[04:25] <blackbox> that works
[04:25] <gogeta> kwanum thats like bred vs water
[04:25] <gogeta> lol
[04:25] <family> can my wife run it without hassles, and needing to use work-a-arounds ?
[04:25] <hacked_kernel> How can I use my mobile as modem to connect to the internet through bluetooth from the laptop?
[04:25] <snkenjoi> will installing from the Ubuntu repositories give me the 8.41 driver?
[04:25] <SlimeyPete> Kwanun: try both and see for yourself. Everyone has their own preference.
[04:25] <jrib> family: don't use 64bit unless you know exactly why you need it.  You will have to do some extra work to get things like flash and sun java plugin
[04:25] <jhaig> handyguy33: I am guessing that the server is an NFS server.  Is it possible that something is getting mounted on top of /home?
[04:25] <blackbox> going to remove it and reinstall it again
[04:25] <blackbox> or something
[04:25] <Pici> family: Adobe does not provide a 64bit version of flash.  You will need to do some workarounds.
[04:25] <gogeta> there both good in there own ways
[04:25] <hawk> family: Depends on what she needs, but some third party stuff is 32bit only
[04:25] <family> Pici jrib thanks
[04:25] <obelix_> i can't read some files in greek. does anyone knows something about that?
[04:26] <gogeta> kde is the prettyest of all desktops for linux
[04:26] <Kwanun> what are the key differences between gnome and kde
[04:26] <Paddy_EIRE> http://static.tigerdirect.com/pdf/samsung-206bw-manual.pdf < here is the specifications of your monitor... although It is a certainty that it is *not* causing your system to lock up
[04:26] <gogeta> but for all that eye candy niceness it uses more system
[04:26] <snkenjoi> will installing from the Ubuntu repositories give me the 8.41 driver?
[04:26] <AeroStick> Zenerek; things on screen distorts and computer locks..
[04:26] <blackbox> sweet
[04:26] <handyguy33> jhaig; i don't think so. i do have an external hdd for backups but that's not taking precedence over the internal hdd.
[04:27] <blackbox> pidgin is running
[04:27] <snkenjoi> will installing from the Ubuntu repositories give me the 8.41 ATI driver?
[04:27] <gogeta> and gnome is a bit lighter on the system then kde but you lose the eye candy
[04:27] <blackbox> it's pretty wired
[04:27] <Kwanun> where's a nice place to download gnome and kde themes?
[04:27] <pravin> join #python
[04:27] <blackbox> i tought i removed with with that command you told me to use
[04:27] <Pici> Kwanun: Why dont you install both of them and choose for yourself.
[04:27] <jrib> !themes > Kwanun (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:27] <Paddy_EIRE> gogeta, I really dont understand the 'kde is pretty' debacle.. its awful looking.. kinda like fisherprice ;)
[04:27] <baudthief> I've got a hdd (from another box) i'd like to install ubuntu on, is it possible to overwrite the existing installation on that drive (currently Debian) but preserve all the files?
[04:27] <gogeta> LOL
[04:27] <jhaig> handyguy33: Do all other directories (eg, other home directories in /home) still exist?
[04:27] <baudthief> *preserve personal files, mysql, etc
[04:27] <Jack_Sparrow> snkenjoi: dont know ... but it will give you the one most likely to work
[04:28] <snkenjoi> cool
[04:28] <gogeta> compared to anything else kde is the nicest looking
[04:28] <Zenerek> Paddy_EIRE: in my case my monitor has no dac, so i had to make a custom xorg file, but does not's aerostick's have one?and should ubuntu not pick up the correcr resolution?
[04:28] <hacked_kernel> How can I use my mobile as modem to connect to the internet through bluetooth from the laptop?
[04:28] <snkenjoi> how do I configure it for say... dual monitors?
[04:28] <SlimeyPete> baudthief: only if you have a seperate /home partition
[04:28] <ninnemana> anyone know who i can add my ubuntu partition to the windows boot manager?
[04:28] <gogeta> ok other then maybe compiz
[04:28] <snkenjoi> ninnemana: wubi
[04:28] <baudthief> SlimeyPete: Damn! I also need /var/www, etc
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> snkenjoi: We have a link with instructions.. twinview maybe
[04:28] <ninnemana> wubi?
[04:29] <jhaig> handyguy33: Do you know when these directories disappeared?
[04:29] <AeroStick> Zenerek, do you have any idea what < Option "DPMS" > is?
[04:29] <snkenjoi> where is this magical link? :P
[04:29] <SlimeyPete> !twinview
[04:29] <handyguy33> jhaig; so far. i disconnected the server from the network and the disappearing act halted. but i need to find out why the files disappeared before i restore.
[04:29] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[04:29] <Kwanun> what about the aero effect?
[04:29] <handyguy33> jhaig; about 9:00 atlantic time

[04:29] <snkenjoi> awesome
[04:29] <Zenerek> AeroStick: hold on let me think
[04:30] <baudthief> SlimeyPete: Ok, well is it possible to "transplant" a drive from one machine to another with a different hardware configuration, and somehow get it to recognise the hardware changes?
[04:30] <ninnemana> snkenjoi; i have ubuntu installed it just doesn't show up on my windows boot loader
[04:30] <jhaig> handyguy33: Could they have been deleted accidentally by a user?
[04:30] <AeroStick> ok
[04:30] <gogeta> keanun compiz works best with gnome it has issues with kde
[04:30] <AeroStick> Zenerek... ok
[04:30] <baudthief> *without a complete reinstallation
[04:30] <Jack_Sparrow> baudthief: yes.. you can do that.. with ubuntu... xp wont
[04:30] <gogeta> if your going 3d its gonna be gnome
[04:30] <SlimeyPete> baudthief: hmm, in theory I guess... if the kernel has all the correct modules built in already
[04:30] <erik__> Anyone else want to give it a go at my problem? Almost every time I load a page in Firefox or Konqueror I get "The connection was reset" or "Connection to host www.anything.com is broken." respectively. Every second reload it works, but all the externally sourced elements do not work (until I refresh it again).  (Yeah gordonjcp, I imagine that you don't know what I could be either).
[04:30] <SlimeyPete> baudthief: but I've not done it mysel
[04:31] <Paddy_EIRE> AeroStick, did you get that link I sent you?
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> baudthief: Set it up with vesa video before you move it
[04:31] <snkenjoi> thanks Jack_Sparrow
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[04:31] <AeroStick> yes, but could not keep it because of crashing...:(
[04:31] <baudthief> SlimeyPete: It's Debian 3.1r0 - doesnt have x or anything, just used as a samba/web/mysql server
[04:31] <Paddy_EIRE> http://static.tigerdirect.com/pdf/samsung-206bw-manual.pdf
[04:31] <Kwanun> what's a grub boot
[04:31] <erik__> It seems to be DNS related, but I've tried various /etc/nsswitch.conf settings (and back to ubuntu default again)
[04:31] <gogeta> LOL
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !grub
[04:31] <gogeta> !grub
[04:31] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[04:31] <SlimeyPete> baudthief: all the better. Fewer things which can break ;)
[04:31] <Paddy_EIRE> DRAW
[04:32] <AeroStick> downloading the pdf
[04:32] <handyguy33> jhaig; possibly, but we've been using this type of setup for about a year, and everyone understands the risks of deleting files on the server. seems they disappeared right after being viewed and closed.
[04:32] <baudthief> SlimeyPete: haha - man if I had somewhere to dump the ~110GB of data on that drive, I would *LOVE* to format and install feisty on it - I have on pretty much every other machine heh
[04:33] <baudthief> the machine it was installed in has a dead mobo :\
[04:33] <gogeta> if it has a home partation thats no problem
[04:33] <blackbox> thanx for the help people
[04:33] <Jack_Sparrow> baudthief: You dont have to dump it all.. just 10 megs or so,   just enought for a partition
[04:34] <Zenerek> aerostick: http://webpages.charter.net/dperr/dpms.htm     for god's sake check google sometimes
[04:34] <gogeta> just dont format home
[04:34] <baudthief> Jack_Sparrow: I don't quite follow - you mean I only need some free space on the drive for an installation?
[04:34] <jhaig> handyguy33: Always the same directories?
[04:34] <baudthief> theres about 40gb free now
[04:34] <AeroStick> okay, gimme a minute
[04:34] <Jack_Sparrow> baudthief: yep...
[04:34] <handyguy33> jhaig; yes
[04:35] <Jack_Sparrow> baudthief: what format is that partition
[04:35] <baudthief> Jack_Sparrow: ext3 afaik
[04:35] <jhaig> handyguy33: The only thing I can think is that the program you are using to view the files is moving them before opening, for some reason.  Doesn't seem very likely, though.
[04:35] <Jack_Sparrow> baudthief: just let the installer resize it
[04:35] <Jack_Sparrow> no worries
[04:35] <jhaig> Have you tried to find the files on the client machines?
[04:35] <DroNix> hello, just want to say that I've finally got my Broadcom Wireless card to work
[04:35] <handyguy33> jhaig; could a windows virus destroy ntfs files residing on a linux server?
[04:35] <baudthief> sweet! is that a partition-magic-style resize, that takes hours if not days?
[04:36] <gogeta> no
[04:36] <jhaig> handyguy33: A windows virus could certainly delete files that the user has write access to.
[04:36] <gogeta> no they cant
[04:36] <Jack_Sparrow> baudthief: No, quite fast actually
[04:36] <aa^way> Hello! Im using "pppoeconf" to connect internet, how to make it auto dial? ive heard there is something like pppoe so it just connects with settings last set.. how you do it
[04:36] <Zenerek> AeroStick: in case you're wondering no i did not know what the option did...or i could have forgtotten, anyway you should probably leave it alone
[04:37] <gogeta> windows has to run for a windows vires to destory them
[04:37] <Jabberwock> any ops?
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> a windows virus rewuires a windows OS running in order to delete files
[04:37] <baudthief> Jack_Sparrow: Awesome! I'm gonna give that a shot now, thanks for your help
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[04:37] <DjViper> jhaig: no
[04:37] <Jabberwock> Jack_Sparrow: thanks to java that's not true
[04:37] <jhaig> gogeta, DjViper: Yes, but if the directory is being shared with a Windows machine, the Windows machine could delete the files.
[04:37] <gogeta> LOL
[04:37] <Jabberwock> and remote exploits do not require the host to be windows
[04:38] <Jabberwock> er client. can't type
[04:38] <gogeta> true
[04:38] <gogeta> best test
[04:38] <jhaig> Linux is running on the server but (I'm guessing) the clients are Windows.
[04:38] <gogeta> run test on clean windows machine
[04:38] <Jabberwock> Get MetaSploit 3 :) It will make you happier.

[04:38] <gogeta> see what happons
[04:38] <DjViper> jhaig: re-read the question ;)
[04:38] <handyguy33> jhaig; we use avg on our windows boxes and it hasn't found anything, but a virus could still be the culprit. i can't see a hacker doing anything, as we use a dedicated linux firewall
[04:39] <Jabberwock> handyguy33: what antivirus software?
[04:39] <Jabberwock> PC Cillin is ranked #1
[04:39] <gogeta> avg its freeware
[04:39] <Jabberwock> Symantec #6
[04:39] <handyguy33> jabberwock; avg
[04:39] <Jabberwock> oh you just said that
[04:39] <Jabberwock> I thought you were speaking poor english and saying 'average'
[04:39] <gogeta> its pretty decent
[04:39] <wib> hi! mir wlan looses connection from time to time and when it does i am not able to reconnect. i have to reboot evertime that happens. is there a quick way to restart all wlan related services in the console or something else i could do to avoid either connection losses or rebooting=
[04:39] <Jygzy-> HOW do you kill x server?
[04:39] <Jabberwock> You get what you pay for
[04:40] <Jabberwock> Jygzy-: ctrl+alt+backspace?
[04:40] <Pici> !windows
[04:40] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[04:40] <handyguy33> i guess so
[04:40] <Jygzy-> NOT ENOUGH
[04:40] <wib> Jygzy-: ctrl alt backspace
[04:40] <gogeta> naa in test avg did a better job then most pay ones
[04:40] <Jabberwock> Jygzy-: killall -9 Xorg
[04:40] <Jabberwock> Jygzy-: DONT TYPE IN ALL CAPS
[04:40] <Jabberwock> I don't know why but I don't like it.
[04:40] <gogeta> so you get alot
[04:40] <gogeta> it relly made norton look bad lol
[04:41] <Jabberwock> gogeta: Hmm.. I'm reading up again. I believe I used this years ago and had really bad experiences
[04:41] <gogeta> it was sad
[04:41] <Jabberwock> If it's the same one I'm thinking of
[04:41] <Jabberwock> Must've improved a lot
[04:41] <Jygzy-> how can i kill x
[04:41] <Zenerek> wtf8-) was that an official obotu message?:)
[04:41] <gogeta> killx?
[04:41] <Jabberwock> Jygzy-: killall -9 Xorg
[04:41] <Pici> Jygzy-: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:41] <Jabberwock> Or killall -9 X if it really is X
[04:42] <gogeta> ctrl alt backspace
[04:42] <gogeta> lol
[04:42] <Jabberwock> 10:40 < Jygzy-> NOT ENOUGH
[04:42] <Jabberwock> !!!!!
[04:42] <Jabberwock> You must be more telekenetic!
[04:42] <gogeta> rm -r -f ./
[04:42] <gogeta> LOL
[04:42] <gogeta> dont do that btw
[04:42] <Pici> gogeta: Please don't suggest that, even in jest.
[04:43] <Jabberwock> Yeah and don't type `init 6` either
[04:43] <Some_ux> this is annoying. it appears i need to install VMware player as well ????
[04:43] <faileas> as well?
[04:43] <Jabberwock> Some_ux: what is your goal?
[04:43] <gogeta> isnt it init 3
[04:43] <faileas> in addition to?
[04:43] <Jabberwock> such as
[04:43] <Fxyz4ever> Some_ux: virtual box is better
[04:43] <Some_ux> My goal is to run XP on top of ubuntu
[04:43] <Jabberwock> Some_ux: Ah. Haven't done it. Let me know how it goes.
[04:43] <jhaig> handyguy33: Sorry, I cannot help any more.
[04:43] <Some_ux> so far it goes badly
[04:43] <Some_ux> :P
[04:44] <ompaul> gogeta, never suggest that again - ever
[04:44] <Jabberwock> I gave up on vmware
[04:44] <gogeta> lol
[04:44] <faileas> Some_ux: If you want vmware, go for server, IMO. and yeah you need that or player i for vmware
[04:44] <Fxyz4ever> Some_ux: virtualbox is better than vmware and it's open
[04:44] <Jabberwock> I didn't have the time to learn all the config options.
[04:44] <gogeta> i said dont do it
[04:44] <gogeta> lol
[04:44] <gogeta> becides
[04:44] <gogeta> i didnt say sudo
[04:44] <gogeta> lol
[04:44] <Jabberwock> ompaul: May I private message you in regards to something, well, private?
[04:44] <Kwanun> what does it mean for ubuntu ,supported to 2008 and supported to 2009?
[04:44] <erik__> Some_ux: I agree VirtualBox works nicely. For winXP its very speedy as well
[04:44] <gogeta> it woulda just failed
[04:44] <neverblue> morning
[04:44] <ompaul> Jabberwock, you can most certainly try
[04:44] <Jabberwock> Here goes nothing!
[04:45] <wib> gogeta: dont suggest that because it is such an old joke :|
[04:45] <gogeta> ;)
[04:45] <Zenerek> gogeta: but what if some uber noob thought wait he forgot to add the suso part......=-O
[04:45] <gogeta> lol
[04:45] <Some_ux> too late for virtualbox, i already started with vmware
[04:45] <gogeta> then i guess he better find his install cd
[04:45] <faileas> Some_ux: got a howto? howtoforge has some good ones...
[04:46] <phoenix24> do I need to restart the network, inorder to enforce the rules just added to IPTABLES ?
[04:46] <faileas> doesn't virtualbox need a modded kernel?
[04:46] <Jabberwock> No.
[04:46] <Jabberwock> phoenix24 ^
[04:46] <Jabberwock> faileas: Is that vps software?
[04:46] <Kwanun> what does it mean for ubuntu ,supported to 2008 and supported to 2009?
[04:46] <Jabberwock> If so, yes
[04:46] <faileas> vps?
[04:46] <Some_ux> I installed the fracking server. now i need to install the player. but i get all sorts of problems
[04:46] <faileas> no no
[04:46] <Jabberwock> Kwanun: It means if you don't upgrade that version after 2008, you won't have support
[04:46] <faileas> you can't install server and player on the same system!
[04:47] <faileas> server has a 'console' app to access a VM
[04:47] <Pici> Kwanun: Ubuntu will continue to provide security patches and community support for those Releases until those dates.
[04:47] <Jabberwock> Don't you just do apt-get install vmware?
[04:47] <Jabberwock> Pici phrased that much better.
[04:47] <Pici> !vmware | Some_ux
[04:47] <ubotu> Some_ux: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[04:47] <Jabberwock> (S)he must've slept
[04:47] <Pici> Jabberwock: me = he
[04:47] <Jabberwock> Thanks :) Didn't want to offend
[04:47] <faileas> Some_ux: try "vmwareserver-console or vmware-serverconsole or... some combination of that
[04:48] <wib> when i do apt-get upgrade, will it upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 (when it's out)?
[04:48] <Jabberwock> I must have a different repo URL for vmware.. I'm pretty sure it's just 'vmware' on my system
[04:48] <Jabberwock> player anre server are there too
[04:48] <faileas> wib: no, i think
[04:48] <faileas> no
[04:48] <Kwanun> so 7.04 will only last to 2008? and while 6 will last to 2009?shouldnt the latest gives more support?
[04:48] <Jabberwock> wib: apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:48] <faileas> player and server will NOT work on the same system at the same time
[04:48] <dgjones> !lts | Kwanun
[04:48] <ubotu> Kwanun: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[04:48] <wib> Jabberwock: ah ok thx
[04:49] <Pici> Kwanun: 6.06 was an LTS version.
[04:49] <DroNix> hello, I'm using xchat and I need help connecting to another server
[04:49] <neverblue> DroNix, /server irc.server.org
[04:49] <Jabberwock> no
[04:49] <Pici> Kwanun: Those are useful for businesses who don't plan on upgrading every 6 months to the newest release.
[04:49] <Jabberwock> That'll disconnect you from here
[04:49] <Kwanun> what's lts
[04:49] <Kwanun> latest stable?
[04:49] <spdf> Long Term Support
[04:49] <Jabberwock> There should be a "new server tab" in your menus
[04:50] <neverblue> using /server -m irc.server.org will launch a new server tab
[04:50] <Jabberwock> Kwanun: 10:48 < ubotu> Kwanun: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[04:50] <Jabberwock> Recursively redundant
[04:50] <Jabberwock> such as, therefore.
[04:50] <Zenerek> Kwanun: dapper was meant to appeal to commercial peeps so they took longer in making it and will be supported long, i'm using right now, it is the most stable
[04:51] <Jabberwock> Is there a commercial version of ubuntu for amd64 that is more stable?
[04:51] <Some_ux> i downloaded vmplayer from the vmware site. foolishly, i expected it to be installed properly when i typed sudo ./vmware-install.pl
[04:51] <Jabberwock> I'd love to get that 3d desktop thing working. I can't recall the name
[04:51] <Some_ux> is there no such thing as a simple install ?
[04:52] <jhaig> Jabberwock: Compiz
[04:52] <Kwanun> why is it fedora installation so big but ubuntu so small as in only 700mb?
[04:52] <Jabberwock> Some_ux: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=OPC&q=ubuntu+vmware+feisty&btnG=Search
[04:52] <Kindredgarou> hi all
[04:52] <neverblue> Kwanun, why are you even asking such a question ?
[04:52] <Jabberwock> jhaig: Thanks :) Waiting for the site to load
[04:52] <neverblue> !hi | Kindredgarou
[04:52] <ubotu> Kindredgarou: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:53] <Kwanun> maybe about features and security
[04:53] <Kindredgarou> im kinda new to ubuntu as in im going to be migrating to it on my new machine and was after some general advice on things like AV and firewalls etc
[04:53] <jhaig> Kwanun: Fedora is based on Redhat which (in my opinion) installs lots of unnecessary junk by default.
[04:53] <Jabberwock> Kwanun: Fedora probably has more packages in the installation bundle?
[04:53] <_gpg_> hello
[04:53] <Kwanun> since fedora is bigger in size?
[04:53] <Pici> Kwanun: Ubuntu provides software repositories so that you dont need to install *everything* when you do the initial install.
[04:53] <_gpg_> i'm looking for VPN client (with gui) client, any suggestions pleas e?
[04:53] <Jabberwock> Kwanun: Linux is Linux. You install/remove what you want.
[04:54] <xdot__> hey all
[04:54] <Jabberwock> How you do that depends on the distro.
[04:54] <Zenerek> Kwanun: obvoiusly because fedora has more programs to install, thus the greater size
[04:54] <Jabberwock> apt is cool. yum is as slow as a paraplegic shrew
[04:54] <Jabberwock> imho
[04:54] <Kindredgarou> i have read some of the forums and it says that a firewall is not neccsessary but is available is this still accurate?
[04:54] <Jygzy-> Hey what is the default device for xorg.conf Device Driver?
[04:54] <Jabberwock> Kindredgarou: If you're already behind a router that has a built in firewall, it is not necessary
[04:54] <Pici> Jygzy-: usually it falls back to VESA by default iirc.
[04:54] <Jabberwock> Unless the router is insecure
[04:54] <Kindredgarou> im not  unfortunately
[04:55] <Jygzy-> so its vesa?
[04:55] <Jabberwock> Then you should enable a firewall
[04:55] <jhaig> Kindredgarou: Depends, but in general I would say that a firewall *is* necessary.
[04:55] <Jygzy-> nvidia isnt working
[04:55] <Jygzy-> just black
[04:55] <rayne3rr01> can i upgrade from dapper to fiesty
[04:55] <Kindredgarou> k ty any recomended for ubutu?
[04:55] <Fxyz4ever> why does my video card support 3D but compis doesn't work?
[04:55] <Pici> rayne3rr01: The reccomended upgrade path is from dapper->edgy->feisty.
[04:55] <neverblue> Kwanun, well you realize that an OS can come in many flavors, since ubuntu and fedora are both based on linux, you can imagine that many different types of packages could be installed on each OS, which would mean that each OS size could possibly never be the same
[04:55] <Pici> !upgrade > rayne3rr01 (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[04:55] <jhaig> rayne3rr01: I think you need to upgrade Dapper->Edgy and then Edgy->Feisty.
[04:55] <slackern> !upgrade
[04:55] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[04:56] <boyan_zlatkov> hello everyone
[04:56] <Kindredgarou> im goign straight to fiesty if that makes much diference
[04:56] <Zenerek> Jabberwock are you sure you don't need a firewall....i think you can never have enough protection...even have antivir
[04:56] <Kindredgarou> hi zlat
[04:56] <jordo23> How do you check to see if IPtables is running on a server (logged into root)?
[04:56] <boyan_zlatkov> can i get some help?
[04:56] <dgjones> !ask | boyan_zlatkov
[04:56] <ubotu> boyan_zlatkov: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:56] <Jabberwock> Zenerek: It can't hurt.
[04:57] <neverblue> Kwanun, further more, each package that is available to fedora is a different package then those for ubuntu as ubuntu is debian based, you install .deb, and fedora is based on red hat, which uses .rpms
[04:57] <jhaig> jordo23 Try: iptables -L
[04:57] <Jabberwock> I said it is not necessary if you're already behind one
[04:57] <Fxyz4ever> why does my video card support 3D but compiz doesn't work?
[04:57] <Kindredgarou> so are there any recomended firewalls for fiesty?
[04:57] <Jabberwock> jordo23: -L -n if you don't care about resolving hosts
[04:57] <jordo23> thanks
[04:57] <erUSUL> !firewall | Kindredgarou
[04:57] <ubotu> Kindredgarou: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:57] <boyan_zlatkov> i'm completely new in linux ana need some help - first i want to ask how to edit files in /etc/network directory
[04:58] <Kindredgarou> ty ubotu
[04:58] <erUSUL> boyan_zlatkov: with any text editor bot you need to use sudo or gksudo
[04:58] <neverblue> Kindredgarou, ubotu is a 'bot :)
[04:58] <Zenerek> Jabberwock well i'm a little paranoid...anyone heard of this new device called the alpha shield?
[04:58] <Jabberwock> boyan_zlatkov: I highly suggest reading online documentation.
[04:58] <Kindredgarou> sorry if i seem a bit dense this will be my first non MS os
[04:58] <boyan_zlatkov> i'l try now, thanks
[04:58] <Jabberwock> Zenerek: Yep :)
[04:58] <jordo23> Jabberwock: is there a way to see which version of Iptables is running?
[04:58] <Kindredgarou> lmao @myself
[04:59] <neverblue> boyan_zlatkov, what are you trying to do exactly ?
[04:59] <neverblue> boyan_zlatkov, what is your setup ?
[04:59] <boyan_zlatkov> tosetup my network
[04:59] <Jabberwock> Zenerek: Handy for wifi places!
[04:59] <tebu> testing
[04:59] <boyan_zlatkov> and printers
[04:59] <jhford> i want to give my computer to another person without reinstalling Ubuntu.  How to i change which user the sudo is linked to
[04:59] <Zenerek> Jabberwock what about dsl protection?
[04:59] <Jabberwock> vi /etc/sudoers.conf ?
[04:59] <Jabberwock> er /etc/sudoers
[04:59] <Kindredgarou> afk abit
[05:00] <neverblue> boyan_zlatkov, sorry, I thought the question involved 'first i want to ask how to edit files in /etc/network directory'
[05:00] <Jabberwock> Zenerek: Refresh my memory?
[05:00] <Jabberwock> I've had literally 8 hours of sleep in 4 days. so much freelance work
[05:00] <Pici> Jabberwock: its visudo
[05:00] <Zenerek> Jabberwock could the alpha shield help protect my dsl connection more?
[05:00] <erUSUL> jhford: add that user to the admin group
[05:00] <jhaig> jhford: In the "Users and Groups" configuration, set the user's properties to have rights to administer the system.
[05:01] <erUSUL> jhford: it's the easiest way imnsho
[05:01] <Jabberwock> Zenerek: Depending on how you use it yeah
[05:01] <Jabberwock> Zenerek: Your DSL router doesn't have a firewall?
[05:01] <jhaig> jhford: See System->Administration->Users and Groups
[05:01] <jhford> thanks!
[05:01] <Jabberwock> Isn't it a linksys or something?
[05:01] <Zenerek> Jabberwock no router only modem
[05:01] <Jabberwock> Wall -> Modem -> PC?
[05:02] <Jabberwock> IF you only have 1 computer, use iptables
[05:02] <Jabberwock> If you have more than one I'd invest in a router
[05:02] <Jabberwock> $50 should get you a linksys with a firewall and dhcp
[05:02] <neverblue> Jabberwock, who are you talking to ?
[05:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Monologue?
[05:03] <neverblue> appears so :)
[05:03] <ibara> he was answering zenerek
[05:03] <neverblue> he musta went for his 10th coffee
[05:03] <Jabberwock> neverblue: Hello there and once again it is good to see you. You're looking marvelous as always!
[05:04] <neverblue> lol
[05:04] <Jabberwock> neverblue: Still on my first redbull :/
[05:04] <Jabberwock> well for this morning
[05:04] <neverblue> !offtopic :)
[05:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about offtopic :) - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:04] <Jabberwock> lol
[05:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Jabberwock: That stuff is bad for ya..
[05:04] <jiju> hi all i am facing a problem with the Intel server board S3000AH SATA Raid in ubunutu. I am trying with the 7.04 server CD
[05:04] <boyan_zlatkov> this is what i'm asking: boyan@Turanaga:/etc/network$ sudo interfaces
[05:04] <boyan_zlatkov> Password:
[05:04] <boyan_zlatkov> sudo: interfaces: command not found
[05:04] <Jabberwock> Jack_Sparrow: You're right!
[05:04] <erUSUL> boyan_zlatkov: sudo nano interfaces
[05:05] <Jabberwock> boyan_zlatkov: Whoah slow down tiger
[05:05] <Jabberwock> Know what you're doing before you do it!
[05:05] <erUSUL> boyan_zlatkov: or for a GUI editor 'gksudo gedit interfaces'
[05:05] <jiju> any body with prior exp in this
[05:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Jabberwock: DO you feel any computer runnning java isnt safe?
[05:05] <Jabberwock> Jack_Sparrow: No
[05:05] <chickenFire> can someone help me fix my usb headset?
[05:05] <gordonjcp> depends what's wrong with it
[05:05] <Jabberwock> Any computer running a JVM that is vulnerable is unsafe
[05:05] <jiju> i did setup the raid array as specified..
[05:06] <neverblue> chickenFire, by fix you mean what ?
[05:06] <boyan_zlatkov> thanks erUSUL! This is what i need :)
[05:06] <chickenFire> Does someone has one under ubuntu?
[05:06] <Jabberwock> Just like any other vulnerable app
[05:06] <chickenFire> neverblue, I have no sound in the headset
[05:06] <jiju> but when booting into linux, I find the two SATA drives as sda and sdb
[05:06] <neverblue> chickenFire, what application are you using to listen to audio ?
[05:06] <Jabberwock> Nothing wrong with java from a security standpoint of the version you're using is secure
[05:06] <chickenFire> it is recognised by the kernel, by alsa, I got some sound level control, but nop, no sound.
[05:06] <jiju> i did expect it to be available as a single drive
[05:06] <x32> i am from brazil
[05:06] <chickenFire> I tried with SL, totem.
[05:06] <Zenerek> Jabberwock my bro has this good linksys wirlessg router but we did not have a reason to use it(suffered terribly and far too long on dialup:-!)now i got dsl....of course the speed sucks,i'm getting 190 plus when i should be getting 500 minimum
[05:06] <chickenFire> both worked with the first card (onboard sound intel)
[05:07] <x32> hello
[05:07] <jiju> the intel site say they have driver for RHEL and SuSE
[05:07] <x32> help me
[05:07] <neverblue> chickenFire, so totem as an example, have you setup the hardware device ?
[05:07] <neverblue> !ask | x32
[05:07] <ubotu> x32: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:07] <Jabberwock> Zenerek: Use the router now that you have DSL :)

[05:08] <boysaretoys> i don't like u
[05:08] <Jabberwock> eh?
[05:08] <Veinor> There are no icons at all on my desktop; everythign else appears to be working
[05:08] <Jabberwock> Is it sad that I consider being in here and helping users a 'break' from what I'm doing?
[05:09] <Jabberwock> Veinor: gnome?
[05:09] <Veinor> yeah, gnome
[05:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Veinor: HAve you been trying out effects and such
[05:09] <Jabberwock> Is nautilus running?
[05:09] <Jabberwock> Maybe your desktop is just empty :D
[05:09] <Veinor> i've got beryl installed, but disabled, as are desktop effects
[05:09] <Veinor> and no it's not; I know i have files there :P
[05:09] <Jabberwock> Oh.. can't help you there.
[05:09] <Veinor> nautilus isn't running
[05:10] <Veinor> ps aux | grep nautilus shows nothing, anyway
[05:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Veinor: The direct answer to my question would have been.. Yes, I was trying Beryl and Desktop Effects
[05:10] <Jabberwock> Veinor: I'm not sure if that is the process name, but try starting it via alt+f2
[05:10] <Veinor> yes I was trying, but they are both disabled. And I have never had issues with them in the past.
[05:10] <Jabberwock> I'm guessing here. I have no ubuntu around here at work, nor X
[05:11] <Veinor> that just opens a file browser window
[05:11] <Jabberwock> alt+f2 should open "Run command"
[05:11] <Jabberwock> hmm
[05:11] <Veinor> yeah, it did after I typed in 'nautilus' and ran it
[05:11] <eon_> my graphics performance is crapy man...it worked fine on windows but now when i open a small game i can't get more than 2fps...help?
[05:11] <Jabberwock> Ah okay
[05:11] <Jabberwock> Have you tried restarting xorg?
[05:11] <neverblue> !enter
[05:11] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:11] <Zenerek> Jabberwock i've never setup a router before anygood reading or guides?
[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Veinor: There is a degree of realtionship between effects and odd things..   How did you install the effects... Using any scripts like automatix or envy?
[05:12] <Veinor> I tried rebooting, too.
[05:12] <Veinor> jack_sparrow: apt-get/synaptic
[05:12] <Jabberwock> neverblue: Who was that directed at?
[05:12] <Veinor> i installed the drivers via the built-in RDM
[05:12] <[TnT] Neo> Could anyone help me installing my nvidia drivers on ubuntu?
[05:12] <PriceChild> [TnT] Neo, what card?
[05:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Veinor: Ok, just checking that you NEVER ran those
[05:12] <[TnT] Neo> geforce 6600
[05:12] <neverblue> Zenerek, portforward.com
[05:13] <neverblue> [TnT] Neo, Feisty ?
[05:13] <Veinor> this happened after i was playing around with themes... specifically, i tihnk after i installed gnome 2.18 from art.gnome.org
[05:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Veinor: WHat happens if you try to add a launcher to your desktop
[05:13] <neverblue> oh, sorry pricechild :)
[05:13] <Jabberwock> Zenerek: Run the cable modem to the uplink port on the router, turn the router on and setup your wifi card for dhcp.. then connect to the network :)
[05:13] <Veinor> there is no right-click menu
[05:13] <Jabberwock> But yes: http://www.wifihowto.org/
[05:13] <PriceChild> [TnT] Neo, system > admin > restricted driver manager
[05:14] <Veinor> when i try right-clicking, I get nothing.
[05:14] <Zeratul2k> Hi, everyone
[05:14] <SlimeyPete> !hi
[05:14] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:14] <kozo> hi
[05:14] <Zeratul2k> I have a problem with my ubuntu
[05:15] <Zeratul2k> I had an nVidia Geforce 6200 (and ubuntu worked perfectly there) but it broke down so I had to take it down
[05:15] <RichW> hey, I URGENTLY need help, I just installed the ubuntu gutsy updates and my network manager system tray icon in the corner has vanished. Is anyone else having this problem and does anyone have a fix?
[05:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Veinor: To be clear.. Where did you get  gnome 2.18
[05:15] <kozo> i have some problem whit the ubuntu 7.04 64 installer (it freezes evertime when i try to install it) :(
[05:15] <PriceChild> !gutsy | RichW
[05:15] <ubotu> RichW: 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
[05:15] <Veinor> ah, fixed it.
[05:15] <[TnT] Neo> Yes but i need my opengl
[05:16] <neverblue> !gutsy | RichiH
[05:16] <ubotu> RichiH: 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
[05:16] <neverblue> ops, sorry
[05:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Veinor: GReat.. what did you do?
[05:16] <PriceChild> neverblue, pinging freenode ops :P
[05:16] <Zeratul2k> Now when I try to start ubuntu (on my integrated graphics chip) but the X server won't start
[05:16] <Pici> neverblue: yah, I'd make sure you say oops next time.
[05:16] <Zeratul2k> it says "Screen Not Found" or something like that
[05:16] <Veinor> i was playing around with the stuff at http://blog.prashanthellina.com/2007/08/22/matrix-desktop/ so I had turned off /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop in gconf
[05:16] <kozo> i tryed ubuntu,kubuntu but it freezes on both
[05:16] <Veinor> i turned it back on and rebooted nautilus
[05:16] <SlimeyPete> Zeratul2k: try reinstalling the nvidia drivers
[05:16] <neverblue> ugh, it wasnt intentional :P
[05:17] <eon_> i need help with my graphics performance! anyone?
[05:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Veinor: Good to know ...
[05:17] <neverblue> !anyone | eon_
[05:17] <ubotu> eon_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[05:17] <Some_ux> vmplayer is not playing ball. it is refusing all attempts to be installed
[05:17] <SlimeyPete> eon_: if you have nvidia/ati, try installing the binary drivers. This usually aids performance.
[05:17] <Zeratul2k> but I don't have the nVidia card anymore
[05:17] <Veinor> on a side note, right now I have icons on my desktop for my various drives that don't show up at all when I ls ~/Desktop. is there any way to do soemthing similar for my home directory?
[05:18] <Zeratul2k> I'm running from the onboard chip
[05:18] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: Start by telling us your video card and monitor model
[05:18] <[TnT] Neo> I don't seem to find the admin section :s
[05:18] <SlimeyPete> Zeratul2k: oh right, I see. Check that the correct driver is enabled in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:18] <Fxyz4ever> ubotu: it's more polite to say anyone/anybody
[05:18] <eon_> I have a laptop with a SiS onboard card
[05:18] <neverblue> Some_ux, there is a #vmware channel on freednoe
[05:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Fxyz4ever: Ubunto is a bot...  robot
[05:18] <SlimeyPete> Fxyz4ever: ubotu is a bot :) No point talking to it
[05:18] <Fxyz4ever> yea i know
[05:18] <Some_ux> thanks
[05:19] <kozo> i have tryed PClinuxOS and i can install it whitout any problem
[05:19] <Zeratul2k> ok, will do. Back in a while
[05:19] <Zenerek>  Veinor: have you tried ls-a
[05:19] <eon_> but when i had windows it worked perfectly...and now i can't even start 3d chess
[05:20] <JonJ> Converting music with faac. I have this .wav file that I want to convert to an .m4b file for my girlfriend(Audio book). However, when I use faac file.wav -B 8  -P -X -w -o file.m4b -  it only gives me interferrence or noise. If I set a higher "b" I get smurf-like voices
[05:20] <gordonjcp> eon_: maybe you don't have the proper graphics drivers installed
[05:20] <kozo> what is wrong whit the installer (it dont like me) xD
[05:20] <Veinor> no, what I meant is this: when I put in a cd or whatever, an icon automagically appears on my desktop, an icon that doesn't represent an actual file in ~/Desktop. what I want is something like that, but for my home folder.
[05:20] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: so most likely you are at 1024 under vesa?  Can you post your xorg to the pastebin... see topic for the link..  and model of your laptop in here
[05:21] <Zenerek>  Veinor: so you want to make a link read up on the ln command
[05:21] <kozo> is here the ubuntu support xD
[05:21] <PriceChild> kozo, yes
[05:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Veinor:   example     type ln -s /dev/ttyS5 /dev/modem
[05:21] <eon_> jack_sparrow: this is the first time i use linux, i'm still learnig...can you help all the way trough? =P
[05:22] <coreyo> would it be better to get a hauppage pvr 350, or a hauppage pvr 500?  I've read a few reviews on various sites finding people that liked the 150/250's better.  Didn't know if there was anything to that?
[05:22] <Veinor> no, I don't want a link. I've run ls -a and I know the icons aren't symlinked, because there's no file in there to be symlinked period.
[05:22] <chickenFire> neverblue: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[05:22] <chickenFire> I will check that with totem...
[05:22] <chickenFire> It might shortcut alsa?
[05:22] <notv> what would cause me to have to reconfigure my xserver when i restart my computer?
[05:22] <kozo> i hope someone will help me (to find the right version for me to install)
[05:22] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: I will be happy to... but you need to answer my questions..  What Make and Model is your laptop...
[05:22] <e\ectro> anyone working on setting up an automated install of 7.04 for a corporate environment?
[05:22] <e\ectro> or has done it
[05:22] <Zenerek>  Veinor: no , the actual device to link to is in the /dev folder in root
[05:22] <kozo> i have a amd 3000 64 bit and 1 GB
[05:23] <SlimeyPete> kozo: just use the 32-bit (i386) version
[05:23] <SlimeyPete> it'll work fine.
[05:23] <eon_> my laptop id from a portuguese brand...but i can give you the hardware list
[05:23] <notv> yea i had to go the 32 route, 64 didnt work for me
[05:23] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: Anything that tells me the hardware info
[05:23] <kozo> why not the 64 bit version (what is wrong whit it)?
[05:23] <f0rqu3> help [TnT] Neo ok?
[05:24] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: SIS model or chipset
[05:24] <SlimeyPete> kozo: it's tricky to make Flash and Java work on 64-bit
[05:24] <turbotoast> hi all. could someone helop me with configuring my wep-wlan on my ubuntu laptop? I've read all the how-tos at ubuntuusers, but to no avail so far. Some help here?
[05:24] <PriceChild> kozo, 64 bit works fine... but a small amount of things are not quite as good as 32... for example flash is harder to get working... also wine
[05:24] <eon_> jack_sparrow: SiS model
[05:24] <PriceChild> SlimeyPete, java?
[05:24] <SlimeyPete> kozo: and 64-bit won't bring you any advantage on your system
[05:24] <PriceChild> SlimeyPete, it will
[05:24] <SlimeyPete> PriceChild: so I hear... has this changed?
[05:24] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: That was a quetion....   What model?
[05:25] <Fxyz4ever> 
[05:25] <PriceChild> SlimeyPete, however not significantly unless on heavy databasing, openssh, video encoding etc.
[05:25] <SlimeyPete> PriceChild: not noticeably
[05:25] <erUSUL> !cn
[05:25] <ubotu> For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk

[05:25] <Madnez> sorry was checking something
[05:25] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_:  Do this    gedit  /etc/X11/xorg.conf                in a terminal   and paste it to the pastebin
[05:25] <f0rqu3> maybe better
[05:25] <PriceChild> SlimeyPete, ah you're right about java sorry
[05:25] <notv> do i have to compile ndiswrapper?

[05:26] <Tsukasa> hey guys, is anyone here familiar with getting ubuntu to install on raid arrays? im sitting here on the livecd with ntfs-3g and dmraid installed
[05:26] <kozo> ubuntu but kubuntu also
[05:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Thanks
[05:27] <Viaken> Madnez: Ahhhh ok...well, anyway, the typical command to make and install just about anything is to cd to the folder and "./configure && make && make install"
[05:27] <SlimeyPete> Jamesinator: for free space, type df -h
[05:27] <Jamesinator> SlimeyPete: Thanks.
[05:27] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: How many times did I tell him to use the pastebin
[05:27] <Adlai> Tsukasa: you need to use the alternate CD
[05:27] <Viaken> Viaken: make/compile
[05:27] <[TnT] Neo> Could anybody help me with installing my geforce 6600 drivers on my ubuntu 7.04?
[05:27] <LadyNikon> so
[05:27] <Tsukasa> Adlai: why is that?
[05:27] <LadyNikon> can anyone take a look at this for me.
[05:27] <Madnez> yeah but how does the command work?
[05:27] <LadyNikon> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3364102#post3364102
[05:27] <Adlai> because it has support for installing to software raid
[05:27] <Viaken> Madnez: As in, what's it do?
[05:27] <Madnez> i mean typing just make doesnt work right?
[05:27] <Adlai> and the normal install CD doesn't
[05:27] <Madnez> no
[05:27] <Madnez> make (filename?)
[05:27] <LadyNikon> while you are looking at that
[05:27] <Tsukasa> Adlai: are you referring to dmraid?
[05:27] <PriceChild> !paste | eon_
[05:27] <ubotu> eon_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:27] <Adlai> yes
[05:28] <Tsukasa> Adlai: i installed it on the livecd
[05:28] <Tsukasa> its working
[05:28] <turbotoast> sorry to ask again, guys, bu this is driving me absolutely nuts: I can connect if I turn encryption off, but if I turn it on, it won't work, even if I give the correct key. Can someone help me, because I tend to get lost between /etc/network/interfaces and such stuff
[05:28] <LadyNikon> can someone tell me how to get colors in vi
[05:28] <Adlai> yes, but the installer on the normal livecd doesn't support installing to a raid array
[05:28] <[nrx] > turbotoast: that's the exact same problem i have
[05:28] <turbotoast> LadyNikon: try typing ":sy on" without quotes
[05:28] <LadyNikon> turbotoast: sy?
[05:28] <Adlai> I know, it seems annoying and non-intuitive
[05:28] <turbotoast> [nrx] : well, hello ten :D
[05:28] <Viaken> Madnez: By default, make looks for Makefile in order to know what to make. ./configure sometimes generates that, or does other nice "setting up" things... and the command I gave you was wrong, it'd be "./configure && make && sudo make install"
[05:28] <LadyNikon> turbotoast: lemme try that.. they had something different
[05:28] <turbotoast> LadyNikon: worked on mine. turns syntax highlighting on
[05:29] <Tsukasa> Adlai: ohh. cant i just make the partition via terminal and do a .... whats that debian command for changing where apt-get installs to
[05:29] <[nrx] > try iwconfig <iface> essid <essid> enc <key>
[05:29] <Tsukasa> Adlai: and just apt-get the entire installation
[05:29] <eon_> jack_sparrow: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37424/
[05:29] <Viaken> [TnT] Neo: I think the nvidia drivers are in multiverse, if you enable it.
[05:29] <turbotoast> [nrx] : already did so
[05:29] <Tsukasa> Adlai: debootstrap
[05:29] <Madnez> ...
[05:29] <Adlai> Tsukasa: well you can always perform the whole installation yourself
[05:29] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: How many times did I tell you to use the pastebin...
[05:29] <Madnez> ook
[05:29] <Madnez> i'm still lost
[05:29] <turbotoast> [nrx] : but let me try another time. do I have to do ifdown, ifup or something like that?
[05:29] <Adlai> that should work fine
[05:29] <Madnez> which command should i even use?
[05:29] <LadyNikon> yay
[05:29] <Viaken> Madnez: If you just type what I gave you, it'll do its thing. "./configure && make && sudo make install", then you can type "vulture" to run the game.
[05:29] <LadyNikon> turbotoast: thanks
[05:29] <Madnez> i've learnt that sudo is admin command
[05:30] <[nrx] > take it down first, try the iwconfig then back up again
[05:30] <Tsukasa> Adlai: that seems easier given that its like 3 or 4 terminal commands
[05:30] <[nrx] > seeif that works
[05:30] <LadyNikon> turbotoast: they had si on .. in another forum :/
[05:30] <turbotoast> LadyNikon: no problem
[05:30] <turbotoast> [nrx] : okay, let me try that. gimme a second.
[05:30] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: You didnt paste the important part
[05:30] <kozo> @SlimeyPete i tryed to install the 64 bit version of ubuntu and kubuntu also but it freezes on both

[05:31] <Viaken> Madnez: Don't surround it with quotes

[05:33] <faileas> putty is <3
[05:33] <suwandhi> ok, now how to set up my resolution to 1280X1204?
[05:33] <Roly[] > i have putty already actually
[05:34] <Viaken> Madnez: You'll catch on... It just takes time. :) Did you download vulture to your desktop or put it somewhere else?
[05:34] <Roly[] > ill wind openssh
[05:34] <turbotoast> [nrx]  ah, can't privmsg, because I'm not registered
[05:34] <Madnez> haha
[05:34] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: do you know the max resolution and sync rates for your hardware?
[05:34] <JuliusMensing> Hello
[05:34] <Madnez> thew it on desktop since pwd standard is on desktop
[05:34] <Madnez> and yeah its extracted
[05:34] <eon_> jack_sparrow: the max res. is 1024x768
[05:34] <JuliusMensing> just wanted to ask if anybody knows about how to run Ubuntu in VMPlayer the easiest way
[05:34] <Jack_Sparrow> suwandhi: : Start by telling us your video card and monitor model
[05:35] <eon_> Jack_Sparrow: I don know the sync
[05:35] <Madnez> guess linux isnt going to be like dos... cd... install x: F: delete .exe *.*
[05:35] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: you re at that now right
[05:35] <bijumon> help to download mono .net for ubuntu
[05:35] <Madnez> =.=
[05:35] <Viaken> Madnez: ok... "cd Desktop/vultures*"
[05:35] <Madnez> still this is good stuff
[05:35] <suwandhi> video card: nvidia geforce 7300 turbo cache,
[05:35] <eon_> Jack_Sparrow: Yeah
[05:36] <fermatstheorem> hello all. How do i set key bindings for compiz? how do i navigate the desktop cube?
[05:36] <Viaken> Madnez: Should take you to the folder...
[05:36] <neozen> hey there all
[05:36] <Jabberwock> Madnez: That's good! You've taken your first step into a larger world.

[05:36] <Viaken> Madnez: For future reference, "ls" lists what's in the current directory.
[05:36] <Madnez> crap!
[05:36] <Jack_Sparrow> suwandhi: :  Do this    gedit  /etc/X11/xorg.conf                in a terminal   and paste it to the pastebin
[05:37] <Madnez> forgotten the letter casing is important on linux
[05:37] <Jack_Sparrow> !pastebin
[05:37] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:37] <Madnez> GAK!!!
[05:37] <Madnez> no wonder it couldnt find the files...
[05:37] <neozen> have an issue w/ my graphics card... its an ati.... lspci says its a VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R250 [Mobility FireGL 9000]  (rev 02) its in a thinkpad t41
[05:37] <Jabberwock> Madnez: I have present for you: http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/~jbattat/computer/linuxReferenceCard.pdf
[05:37] <Viaken> Madnez: Yeah. That takes getting used to, too. :)
[05:37] <fermatstheorem> hello all. How do i set key bindings for compiz? how do i navigate the desktop cube?
[05:37] <Viaken> Jabberwock: Nice!
[05:37] <Jabberwock> Thanks! I googled it myself :D
[05:37] <ninhobomba> fermatstheorem: do alt-f2 and write ccsm
[05:38] <Jabberwock> Actually that is a good reference card.
[05:38] <Jack_Sparrow> fermatstheorem:  Ask in #Ubuntu-effects
[05:38] <Viaken> fermatstheorem: ctrl-alt click+drag will move the cube, by default.
[05:38] <LadyNikon> so..
[05:38] <eon_> Jack_Sparrow: the problem is...I've never had a performance that low...the image is clear...but its slow...very very slow
[05:38] <neozen> when I close the lid once X is started up.... display won't come back on when opening it again...
[05:38] <suwandhi_> now, to setup the resolution?
[05:38] <ninhobomba> fermatstheorem: thats settings for compiz... eaach effect has its own settings.. just look at the tabs
[05:38] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: How much ram do you have in the laptop
[05:38] <Jabberwock> neozen: Try pressing that lil thing that shuts your display off
[05:38] <Jabberwock> Hold it down for 2 seconds and release
[05:38] <Viaken> Madnez: After you get into the directory ...err...you'll need to install build-essential, so "sudo aptitude install build-essential"
[05:38] <Jabberwock> see if the screen comes back on
[05:38] <eon_> Jack_Sparow: 1Gb
[05:38] <neozen> Jabberwock: which thing is that?
[05:38] <LadyNikon> ubuntu is stating requesting a wep key for a wap that has no wep. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3364102#post3364102
[05:39] <Jabberwock> neozen: The thing that the lid hits when you close it.
[05:39] <suwandhi_> I can't install 915resolution
[05:39] <fermatstheorem> thanks. ctl+atl+drag works for beryl for me, and not for compiz. the gl-desktop pref doesnt seem to have an toptoin to set it
[05:39] <neozen> ah... ok... will try
[05:39] <Wikzo> I got an Acer Aspire 3680 laptop. When I use Ubuntu 7.04 it use a lot more power than Windows XP. Is there a way to get better battery life on my machine?
[05:39] <Jabberwock> On my acer laptop it's a little rubber peg sticking up above my function keys
[05:39] <eon_> Jack_Sparrow: 1Gb
[05:39] <Kwanun> what's gdk
[05:39] <Kwanun> sorry
[05:39] <Kwanun> gtk
[05:39] <Jabberwock> GIMP tool kit
[05:39] <Viaken> Jabberwock: On my Toshiba, it's a switch built into the case. I can't reach it without a paper clip. :P
[05:39] <Jack_Sparrow> eon_: I dont have any answers.  I do see a fair number of people with sis that are not happy with the quality of the drivers
[05:39] <LadyNikon> !gtk
[05:39] <ubotu> GTK is the !GIMP toolkit, which forms the base of !GNOME and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI
[05:39] <Jabberwock> Viaken: :(
[05:39] <Madnez> nice!
[05:40] <Madnez> ok seems im getting online updates
[05:40] <Jabberwock> Madnez: Print that out and read it. Sleep with it under your pillow. Record your voice repeating everything and give yourself auto suggestive lessons while you sleep.
[05:40] <Kwanun> so gtk themes is a gnome theme?
[05:40] <Viaken> Madnez: *nods* it'll take a second...not as long as the compile, though, but we'll get to that.
[05:40] <Kwanun> !gnome
[05:40] <ubotu> gnome is a project that provides two things: The GNOME desktop environment, an intuitive and attractive desktop for end-users, users, and the GNOME development platform, an extensive framework for building applications that integrate into the rest of the desktop.
[05:40] <Madnez> lol?
[05:40] <Jabberwock> Oh you think I'm kidding.
[05:41] <Jabberwock> LadyNikon: I love your D90
[05:41] <Viaken> Madnez: Let me know when you're ready for more. :)
[05:41] <eon_> Jack_Sparrow: well...thanks anyway! =)
[05:41] <Suxdavid3> hello!!
[05:41] <Madnez> bout the sleeping to bed yes
[05:41] <LadyNikon> Jabberwock: the nick is from hackers :p
[05:41] <Madnez> the rest i'm keeping :D
[05:41] <Suxdavid3> please help me!!!
[05:41] <neozen> Jabberwock: which Xorg driver are you using? the opensource one?
[05:41] <Jack_Sparrow> 1ask
[05:41] <Jabberwock> LadyNikon: lol! Haven't seen that movie since it came out. Nice.
[05:41] <LadyNikon> Suxdavid3: ask your question.
[05:41] <Viaken> Suxdavid3: I don't sux! :(
[05:41] <Jabberwock> neozen: No, a restricted one
[05:41] <Jabberwock> (NVidia)
[05:41] <Wikzo> I got an Acer Aspire 3680 laptop. When I use Ubuntu 7.04 it use a lot more power than Windows XP. Is there a way to get better battery life on my machine?
[05:42] <shaffy> does anyone know a quick command to uninstall the gnome/ubuntu desktop?  (i'm running kubuntu now on a previous ubuntu laptop)

[05:42] <Jabberwock> And honestly I do not have my ubuntu laptop here at work. Only fedora machines
[05:42] <zeratul2k> problem solved
[05:42] <neozen> Jabberwock: nvidia driver works w/ that chipset?
[05:42] <faileas> shaffy: sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop ?

[05:42] <Veinor> my camera only works with v4l2; what programs can I use to take a pictures after a set amount of tiem? (say, 10 seconds)
[05:42] <Madnez> thanks viaken
[05:42] <Jabberwock> neozen: I don't know what chipset it is to be honest
[05:42] <Suxdavid3> please||!!!!
[05:42] <zeratul2k> All I had to do was go into recovery mode and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg"
[05:43] <Madnez> any other commands i might need to know?
[05:43] <Jabberwock> The CPU is a a dual core amd64
[05:43] <LadyNikon> when i do iwonfig if "Encryption Key:off" does that mean no wep
[05:43] <Suxdavid3> who knows hot to install wow on linux contact me in private please!!!!!
[05:43] <spdf> Suxdavid3: Check out transgaming, they have a solution for that
[05:43] <Jabberwock> LadyNikon: Yes
[05:43] <LadyNikon> !winex > Suxdavid3
[05:43] <Zenerek> Suxdavid3 well you are in luck, others have told me wow works in wine
[05:43] <shaffy> faileas:  hmm, i don't think it worked.   it did not remove anything.
[05:43] <spdf> Suxdavid3: $5/mo, and they'll provide you with support as well
[05:43] <LadyNikon> Suxdavid3: see the following
[05:43] <LadyNikon> !wine
[05:43] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[05:44] <Jabberwock> bbiab
[05:44] <Suxdavid3> yesbut i doesn't know how to compile wine!!!
[05:44] <Viaken> Madnez: I haven't seen what's on the referenc card yet...
[05:44] <ltz> I'd use cedega for wow
[05:44] <LadyNikon> ltz: cedega = $
[05:44] <LadyNikon> !install
[05:44] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[05:44] <LadyNikon> bleh
[05:44] <r2r4> hello!i wanna a manpages-dev of tar.gz format, or some else except .deb--|  i went to google, but i found nothing i wanted...anyone can help me ??
[05:44] <ltz> You can compile it yourself with CVS too though
[05:44] <Viaken> Madnez: Did you do the "./configure && make && sudo make install" yet?
[05:44] <Madnez> yeah whats that ref card anyway?
[05:45] <Madnez> yup
[05:45] <LadyNikon> Suxdavid3: use synpatic
[05:45] <Madnez> its dling some files now
[05:45] <ltz> Anyway, I prefer the $ version
[05:45] <Suxdavid3> synaptic and!?
[05:45] <LadyNikon> Jabberwock: ya well its asking for a key
[05:45] <Suxdavid3> what i must search?!
[05:45] <LadyNikon> Suxdavid3: have you ever installed a package on ubuntu?
[05:45] <Suxdavid3> mm i don't understand i'm noob
[05:45] <digitalspaghetti> How can I set my local on Ubuntu server?
[05:45] <robdeman> hi all - how can I graphically display the sizes of files/folders ?
[05:45] <Viaken> Madnez: A bunch of gibberish will scroll by and eventually you'll get back to your prompt...then you can "vultures", I think to run it... I'm not sure what the name of it's going to be, honestly, though.
[05:45] <freepenguin> hello
[05:46] <robdeman> is there some sort of graphical dir tree / dir size tool?
[05:46] <Madnez> haha thats more than enough help
[05:46] <LadyNikon> !synaptic
[05:46] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[05:46] <r2r4> hello!i wanna a manpages-dev of tar.gz format, or some else except .deb--|  i went to google, but i found nothing i wanted...anyone can help me ?? plz ..
[05:46] <Helzibah> !hi | freepenguin
[05:46] <ubotu> freepenguin: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:46] <freepenguin> hello men
[05:46] <LadyNikon> Suxdavid3: see that link
[05:46] <Madnez> before im clueless... now at least i can fiddle a bit
[05:46] <Zenerek> Suxdavid3 you don't need to compile just install wine through synaptic
[05:46] <digitalspaghetti> I get these errors:  http://pastebin.digitalspaghetti.me.uk/20  <--- I need to set up my local, can anyone help?
[05:46] <ltz> Can you somehow show the Userlist permanently with X Chat or can you suggest me any mirc-likes?
[05:46] <Suxdavid3> one time i've installed synaptic how can i install wow?!?!
[05:47] <Stwange> hey can anyone help me? I'm trying to get nm-applet running on my system tray. I tried ps aux | grep nm-applet, and it shows "nm-applet --sm-disable" running, but it's not in gnome. I tried "kill 6003", then "nm-applet", but the terminal just hangs. I tried ALT-F2 -> "nm-applet" but it just shows it running on ps, it still doesn't run
[05:47] <LadyNikon> Suxdavid3: read that link that was posted to install wine
[05:47] <dennda> ltz: move your mouse to the right-hand-side of xchats window and pull the userlist from there to the left
[05:47] <Zenerek> Suxdavid3 for basics on starting with ubuntu visit www.ubuntuguide.com
[05:47] <urilockz> is there some sort of site where i can download all the useful programs i need, I just reinstalled and it will take hours to find them all
[05:47] <JuliusMensing> Hello, anybody knows how to get Ubuntu started in VMWare Player?
[05:48] <Madnez> btw
[05:48] <Madnez> guys hwo do i dual boot?
[05:48] <ltz> dennda: it isnt there at all
[05:48] <Madnez> i have the ubuntu normal and recov and windows
[05:48] <Viaken> Madnez: You installed Ubuntu over Windows?
[05:48] <dgjones> !dualboot | Madnez
[05:48] <Veinor> my camera only works with v4l2; what programs can I use to take a pictures after a set amount of tiem? (say, 10 seconds)
[05:48] <ubotu> Madnez: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookProFeisty
[05:48] <faileas> JuliusMensing: either get a premade vm, or make a config file at easyvmx.com
[05:48] <Viaken> ah...nifty
[05:48] <r2r4> join #man
[05:48] <Madnez> thanks
[05:48] <dennda> Madnez: depends on your situation. If Windows XP is preinstalled and you want to install ubuntu on the free disk space remaining, grub will automatically detect it and install a bootloader
[05:48] <Madnez> did that
[05:49] <faileas> JuliusMensing,  personlly vmware player sucks, server works better , and the same great ( 0 ) price
[05:49] <Madnez> but no bootloader
[05:49] <JuliusMensing> faileas, thanx a lot!!! :D
[05:49] <Madnez> it just separates ubunto with win
[05:49] <dennda> ltz: It sometimes is hidden on the right hand side. Try to shrink the xchat window by dragging the right edge to the left
[05:49] <Madnez> ubuntu
[05:49] <Stwange> ltz, try dragging the user list out from the right hand side
[05:49] <yurimxpxman> does the lpr command support ODT files?
[05:49] <faileas> JuliusMensing: what host (curious)
[05:49] <Stwange> damn you dennda :)
[05:49] <dgjones> ltz, are you using xchat or xchat-gnome?
[05:50] <ltz> oh, xchat-gnome
[05:50] <dennda> Stwange: yeah sorry man. ;)
[05:50] <Viaken> Madnez: Do you mean have both running at the same time? Dual booting is just having both on the system and being able to select one at boot time.
[05:50] <ltz> didn't know there was a difference, suggest me any cool irc clients? I've used mirc on windows
[05:50] <Madnez> aww damn
[05:50] <polycarp> #splunk
[05:50] <dennda> ltz: I do not like xchat-gnome. IMHO normal xchat is *much* better
[05:50] <dgjones> ltz, i use xchat, easy to install via synaptic
[05:51] <Madnez> thought simultaneous booting
[05:51] <Stwange> ltz, personally, I preferred xchat once I got used to it. Just try dragging the user list out from the right hand side like suggested, and that should help you
[05:51] <dennda> ltz: xchat (without -gnome) actually is a cool irc client (I do not use it, since I am a irssi fanboy, but I like it.)
[05:51] <ltz> got it
[05:51] <Reikachu> does anyone knowledgeable feel like talking to me about improving my laptop's battery life for a bit?
[05:51] <Viaken> Madnez: That is possible, but comes at a cost, and it's hard to do with a Windows install on the hard drive.
[05:52] <polycarp> join #splunk
[05:52] <Madnez> yeah i know
[05:52] <H3g3m0n> Reikachu:  You can try the new dynamic ticks kernel, and powertop
[05:52] <Stwange> sorry to repeat but, can anyone help me? I'm trying to get nm-applet running on my system tray. I tried ps aux | grep nm-applet, and it shows "nm-applet --sm-disable" running, but it's not in gnome. I tried "kill 6003", then "nm-applet", but the terminal just hangs. I tried ALT-F2 -> "nm-applet" but it just shows it running on ps, it still doesn't run
[05:52] <Madnez> if i use wine or cedega it's work
[05:52] <ltz> brb
[05:52] <Viaken> Madnez: The cost is one or the other has to be slower with no 3d acceleration.
[05:52] <Madnez> even wm
[05:52] <LadyNikon> please 2 halp with wireless.. <sigh>
[05:52] <Reikachu> H3g3m0n: thanks, I'll look into it
[05:52] <Madnez> lolz
[05:52] <fermatstheorem> Reikachu: in kubuntu with kde powemanagemtn you can set which power profile to run
[05:52] <dennda> Stwange: Is the notification tray active in your panel?
[05:52] <Madnez> then theres no way to play some of my nice win games on linux =.=
[05:52] <Stwange> dennda, yeah
[05:52] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: already played with power profiles
[05:52] <Madnez> sob sob
[05:53] <ltz> got my userlist now, thanks
[05:53] <Madnez> wine doesnt work well with all 3d intense games
[05:53] <dennda> ltz: yw
[05:53] <Viaken> Madnez: wine and cedega run Windows programs, but won't run windows. wine and cedega both support 3d acceleration...somewhat. :)
[05:53] <Madnez> yeah
[05:53] <Madnez> but they need win installed =.=
[05:53] <Madnez> my drive 80 gig was pure win
[05:53] <Madnez> cleared 1/4 for ubuntu
[05:54] <ltz> for wow cedega cvs would be best I'd say
[05:54] <Madnez> now need to figure how to remove 60 gig more =.=
[05:54] <Viaken> Madnez: I've had 3d intensive games work fine in wine. Many people play Counterstrike: Source, Half Life 2, or World of Warcraft in wine/cedega.
[05:54] <Madnez> ook
[05:54] <LadyNikon> eve-online runs in wine :D
[05:54] <bony> i have an all-in-one laserjet printer every thing is working fine. but i don't know how to configure fax in it. I read about hylafax but it say's that this is for serial port were as my printer is in network as well as connected through usb cable. i could send fax from the printer itself its work but i need to configure a system from which i could send and receive fax
[05:54] <Madnez> so do i still need to install win even though its on the com?
[05:54] <H3g3m0n> Reikachu:  Also you can use those cpu frequency adjusters and also undervolt the cpu
[05:54] <faileas> Madnez: delete things you don't need. use jkdefrag to defrag ;p
[05:54] <Meroigo> My ubuntu says I'm not priveleged to mount cd roms.. :P so I can't browse cd-roms normally... I have to write in terminal: sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom to be able to use cdroms =P
[05:54] <Reikachu> I've played with backports HAL, laptop-mode-tools, cpufreq governor profiles and vm.swappiness and squeezed it to about 2:30 - 3 hours
[05:54] <Meroigo> isn't there like a fix?
[05:54] <faileas> wine and cedega don't 'need' windows. they can use windows dlls
[05:54] <Meroigo> So I don't have to do terminal things to view a CD
[05:54] <Meroigo> :S
[05:54] <neozen> well Jabberwock that didn't work... computer just thought I closed the lid and wouldn't turn the display back on
[05:54] <Andeh> What is wrong with people!? I said that the meatballs I just ate tasted delicious and they banned me from #ubuntu-offtopic because I used a synonym that they thought was offensive, but is not.
[05:54] <Viaken> Madnez: Does it not show up in the GRUB menu? That first menu you see at boot?
[05:55] <Andeh> I used the word "faggot" which originally means "meatball"...
[05:55] <fermatstheorem> H3g3m0n: where can i find cpu freq adjusters in ubunutu?i've used yast in suse to do it.
[05:55] <Zenerek>  Madnez:  counterstrike? shooters linux has now if it could only run other games
[05:55] <Madnez> lolz
[05:55] <Madnez> yeah boot sees windows
[05:55] <Andeh> They just assume you hate homosexuals for no reason at all...
[05:55] <linux__alien>  i am using Ubuntu 7.04 and i want to establish a TCP Session within a PC infact i want to simulate TCP Connections as if my machine is connected to 10 peers. Can i do it using Xen
[05:55] <Madnez> damn longhorn
[05:55] <neozen> Jabberwock: funny thing is... there's nothing on the /etc/acpi/lid.sh script.... I moved the original contents elsewhere and just stuck in a blank shellscript...
[05:55] <Madnez> was a bitch to remove
[05:55] <Viaken> Madnez: Then you should just have to select it...
[05:55] <Zenerek> oops that was not meant for anyone in general
[05:55] <Reikachu> H3g3m0n: I'm using ondemand and monitoring it atm
[05:56] <Stwange> anyone have any idea about my network monitor?
[05:56] <Skiessi> they removed the ban, I think
[05:56] <Madnez> ubuntu helped me clear most of it but the bootup still has it =.=
[05:56] <ltz> anyone knows why my gdesklets window stays just grey after starting? not even a menu, just the normal window buttons
[05:56] <Stwange> I can tell you the commands I used to get rid of it if that helps...
[05:56] <Madnez> .... i like ubuntu!
[05:56] <Viaken> Stwange: Try "kill -9"?
[05:56] <Madnez> i just want win when i need the games :D
[05:56] <H3g3m0n> fermatstheorem:  I think its cpufreqd, its probally installed by default but on my system it doesn't seen to actually run even though it should work, ive never bothered to look into it too much
[05:56] <Madnez> not gonna bother loading it forever...
[05:56] <fermatstheorem> H3g3m0n: the cpufreqd command?
[05:56] <Viaken> Madnez: Like I said, you should be able to select it on boot up.
[05:56] <Madnez> =.= restart for a game
[05:56] <Madnez> sigh...
[05:56] <slint> can someone help me get my xserver working?
[05:57] <dennda> Madnez: try virtualizing it...
[05:57] <slint> i have an ati radeon x1200 card
[05:57] <Viaken> Madnez: Yep. :\ That's the current state of things until game devs decide Linux is a viable market.
[05:57] <Stwange> Viaken, same thing happens
[05:57] <Madnez> which one?
[05:57] <fermatstheorem> H3g3m0n: cpufreq-selector is available
[05:57] <Madnez> windows?
[05:57] <slint> i got it working, then restarted and it stopped working
[05:57] <dennda> yes
[05:57] <Madnez> heck no via!
[05:57] <Reikachu> H3g3m0n: the thing that helped the most was HAL backports to get proper backlight support
[05:57] <fermatstheorem> Reikachu: did you try cpu-freq-selector
[05:57] <Viaken> heck no?
[05:57] <H3g3m0n> fermatstheorem:  Hmm looks like it isn't on by default, apt-get install cpufreqd
[05:57] <Madnez> once they think linux is viable, we'll get viruses
[05:57] <Viaken> lol
[05:57] <Madnez> popularity = chaos :D
[05:57] <Zenerek> Madnez: there is a file  i forgot where that has the boot up options, you should just have to remove longhorn from the list
[05:58] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: I looked at cpufreq governance policies for a while, monitored it and decided the default ondemand policy was probably the best
[05:58] <dennda> oh definitely....
[05:58] <Madnez> stay strong and low = awesome
[05:58] <ltz> anyone knows why my gdesklets window stays just grey after starting? not even a menu, just the normal window buttons
[05:58] <neozen> Jabberwock: have narrowed the problem to X since closing and reopening display on XDM's screen doesn't exhibit the same behavior..
[05:58] <Tsukasa> do you guys reccommend the amd64 release?
[05:58] <Tsukasa> does it work well
[05:58] <somedude> is ubuntu good
[05:58] <ltz> I'm using amd64
[05:58] <dennda> Tsukasa: No *I* don't
[05:58] <neozen> ...wait... s/xdm/gdm/
[05:58] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: in practice ondemand runs me at my lowest frequency, 1ghz the majority of the time
[05:58] <ltz> no problems so far
[05:58] <H3g3m0n> fermatstheorem, Reikachu: Looks like there is powernowd and cpufreqd, im not sure what the diffrence is but they seem to override each other. powernowd is the default
[05:58] <ltz> everything just works great on amd64
[05:58] <fermatstheorem> Reikachu: i was a control freak with my old laptop,i had hard set it to run at 750Mhz :p it gave me 3.5 hrs
[05:59] <Tsukasa> ltz, okay, and amd64 works on intel 64 bit chips too right
[05:59] <somedude> does ubuntu get new software or only old stuff like debian
[05:59] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: I think 1ghz is the lowest supported by my chipset
[05:59] <ltz> right
[05:59] <Zenerek> Madnez: hmm i've wondered about that virus theory myself....
[05:59] <dennda> Tsukasa: No advantages (for the normal user) but software that doesn't work on 64bit (like flash). Last time I checked...
[05:59] <Tsukasa> ltz, because i know for a while there was a difference between amd64 and intel64
[05:59] <ltz> I've got intel core2duo too
[05:59] <fermatstheorem> H3g3m0n,Reikachu:is there a frontend for cpufreqd as found in yast of suse?
[05:59] <Tsukasa> dennda, flash works on 64bit o_0
[05:59] <Tsukasa> i think
[05:59] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: yes but it doesn't work by default because you have to chmod a file or two
[05:59] <dennda> Tsukasa: since?
[05:59] <Tsukasa> ltz right?
[05:59] <Viaken> Madnez: Linux does make it a bit harder to get viruses, though. The correct use of administrative rights helps a lot.
[06:00] <ltz> well, I think it does
[06:00] <dennda> Tsukasa: does it work the easy way? (Yet I do not see any advantage of using 64-bit...)
[06:00] <H3g3m0n> fermatstheorem: apt-cache search cpufreq shows some utils and applets that might be what you want
[06:00] <Meroigo> My ubuntu says I'm not priveleged to mount cd roms.. :P so I can't browse cd-roms normally... I have to write in terminal: sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom to be able to use cdroms =P isn't there like a fix so I can use cdroms without having to write stuff in the terminal?
[06:00] <ltz> let me check
[06:00] <Tsukasa> dennda, its 1337er
[06:00] <Jabberwock> you can edit /etc/fstab
[06:00] <Tsukasa> dennda, and theoritically faster
[06:00] <Jabberwock> And add the user option (man fstab)
[06:01] <Jabberwock> please excues my enter abuse, neverblue :P
[06:01] <dennda> Tsukasa: Only if one of your programs needs >4GB memory.
[06:01] <ltz> err for me flash works dennda
[06:01] <Tsukasa> dennda, not true
[06:01] <Viaken> Madnez: Granted, there's still going to be people who'll gladly download and run "CHECK OUT THIS COOL SCREENSAVER" mail attachments from strangers, but I do believe Linux has a better chance of resisting malware.
[06:01] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: I found http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/11/04/enabling-cpu-frequency-scaling/ helpful
[06:01] <dennda> ltz: ok that may have changed. It's been long since I last checked.
[06:01] <LadyNikon> ubuntu is stating requesting a wep key for a wap that has no wep. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3364102#post3364102
[06:01] <fermatstheorem> Reikachu, H3g3m0n: thanks
[06:01] <Madnez> ok its done
[06:01] <dennda> Tsukasa: What other advantage does 64-bit provide *at the moment* in terms of speeding up your system?
[06:01] <ltz> tsukasa: if you like opera, you gotta use a alpha or the i386 though
[06:02] <slint> someone please help me figure this one out
[06:02] <Madnez> viaken, linux already stops adware!
[06:02] <Viaken> Madnez: Try typing "vul" and hitting TAB.
[06:02] <Madnez> whatelse can i ask for? :D
[06:02] <fermatstheorem> Reikachu: i have done this when i used Redhat -changing it manually
[06:02] <Viaken> hehehe
[06:02] <Tsukasa> dennda, watch the leopard keynote, jobs shows off 32bit imaging program vs 64bit... the 64bit finished like like 1/9th the time
[06:02] <Madnez> nope
[06:02] <Madnez> tell me the kind of file i'm lookin for
[06:03] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: what I thought was most relevant was the bit at the bottom telling you to reconfigure the gnome-applets package to set the suid correctly
[06:03] <dennda> Tsukasa: well this is not #apple.
[06:03] <Tsukasa> dennda, thats assuming the app is built for 64bit... most apps just use it for a marginal speed gain
[06:03] <Otacon22> how can i convert a mpg video into a divx ?
[06:03] <Viaken> Madnez: It should just be a command at this point. Try "ls /usr/games"
[06:03] <Tsukasa> dennda, im not saying it is, its just a good demonstration
[06:03] <Viaken> Oh hold on...I'll just download the package myself and see what the command is. lol
[06:03] <ltz> anyone using gdesklets?
[06:03] <Hohlraum> is there a fix for the flash issue where you have to keep another flash video paused at all times in another window to keep it from crashing firefox?
[06:03] <Madnez> no vulture..
[06:03] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: I think it should let you select cpufreq speed through the default Panel applet
[06:03] <Madnez> =.=
[06:03] <Tsukasa> dennda, theres a big difference between *supporting* a technology and actually using it well
[06:04] <Madnez> theres a make file here
[06:04] <fermatstheorem> Reikachu: could you please explain what i shoudl do the the gnome-applets?
[06:04] <Jabberwock> Hohlraum: I don't have that issue.
[06:04] <dennda> Tsukasa: As far as I know it doesn't have any advantages. I may be mistaken. I will verify this myself. (Yet it is annoying if you need Software that isn't available for the 64-bit platform.)
[06:04] <H3g3m0n> dennda:  64bit only really helps with some specific tasks, such as video encoding, compression and such. Some people claim it seems snappier (it felt a bit that way to me). Also you can have more than 4gb of ram. But things like flash and some video codecs can be a bit of a pain to use (although its improved recently)
[06:04] <Grungebunny> itz yes
[06:04] <fermatstheorem> Reikachu: i did see one applet that displays feq
[06:04] <Hohlraum> Jabberwock: you use the repo flash or auto-installed via firefox?
[06:04] <Tsukasa> dennda, well, if your running winblows, the viruses arent compatible either ;)
[06:04] <axz> !flash
[06:04] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[06:04] <fermatstheorem> Reikachu: cpu freq scaling moinitor
[06:04] <Viaken> Hohlraum: I have that problem, too.
[06:04] <dennda> Tsukasa: I am not. By the way, H3g3m0n backs me up here ;)
[06:05] <Vegar> When I installed Ubuntu (Gutsy Gibbon), I accidentally installed grub in the MBR. Is there a backup of the original MBR?
[06:05] <ltz> grungebunny: any clue why my gdesklets windows stay grey after starting? no menu either (anyway its LTZ)
[06:05] <Wikzo> What is laptop mode, and how do I use it in Ubuntu 7.04? Is there anything I should know about it before trying it?
[06:05] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: I haven't tried this but if I understand the article correctly that applet should also allow you to select freq, but does not by default due to permissions. If you run sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-applets and answer "Yes" to the question regarding setting the suid of cpufreq-selector to executable
[06:05] <Jabberwock> Hohlraum: Actually I couldn't even tell you. It was some long, drawn out process because I'm using the 64bit feisty
[06:05] <Grungebunny> ltz oh I dunno I never had that problem. check the forums?
[06:05] <fermatstheorem> Reikachu: awright will try now
[06:06] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: it should work. There are some other interesting blogs about this on google. The bug he links to explains why it is not active by default
[06:06] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: I have to go but good luck
[06:06] <ltz> Grungebunny: window is supposed to have the title "gdesklets shell" though right?
[06:06] <Reikachu> fermatstheorem: he also explains what to do using chmod instead of dpkg-reconfigure, if that's preferable
[06:07] <Grungebunny> ltz yes the gdesklets gui does
[06:07] <fermatstheorem> Reikachu: but, wouldn't that be kinda userfriendly, to allow the applet to do it?
[06:07] <ltz> Grungebunny: just stays grey.. guess I've to look for it on the forums, thanks anyway
[06:08] <r2r4> hello!i wanna a manpages-dev of tar.gz format, or some else except .deb--|  i went to google, but i found nothing i wanted...anyone can help me ?? plz ..there are some online docments,but i want to download one copy to install onmy computer
[06:08] <Common2> Guys,  shouldnt the Ubuntu team develop some way of distrubuting updates and packages through bittorrent,
[06:08] <Common2> and use their central server to validate everything with hash checks
[06:09] <Madnez> viaken so done too? :D
[06:09] <fermatstheorem> Common2: that prevents nasty folks like me to inject a cute rootkit in the updates
[06:09] <NOT_guru> well   has anyone tried the new vid drivers from ATI?
[06:09] <NOT_guru> err
[06:09] <NOT_guru> amd
[06:09] <NOT_guru> err DAAMIT
[06:09] <Viaken> Madnez: Had to wait for it to download.
[06:10] <Common2> well, thats what the hash checks are for
[06:10] <H3g3m0n> bittorrent already does hashchecking anyway
[06:10] <Madnez> hehe
[06:10] <Madnez> yeah guessed as much
[06:10] <Viaken> Madnez: Did you "make nethack-home" or "make home" or what?
[06:10] <faileas> bittorrent is relatively slow compared to a good direct download ;)
[06:10] <Madnez> anyway not sure what im looking for now :D
[06:10] <Madnez> uhh nope
[06:10] <Viaken> faileas: Not if you get a good torrent. I frequently max out my connection with them.
[06:10] <Madnez> i have several versions of the old nethack...
[06:11] <Viaken> Madnez: Have you done the make command yet?
[06:11] <Madnez> not sure if i should remove or keep them
[06:11] <Common2> Can't all the linux distrs come to some agreement to this,  this way  updates and package downloads would be much faster
[06:11] <Common2> And the Ubuntu servers handle all the validations seamlessly
[06:11] <faileas> Common2: there won't be distros if they were all the same ;)
[06:11] <Madnez> how does the make work?
[06:11] <Viaken> Common2: Different people have different needs from their package managers.
[06:11] <H3g3m0n> Common2:  The problem with bittorrent is it requires people to upload, which means the torrents will need to remain active after the update is downloaded
[06:11] <Viaken> Madnez: You can keep them. Apparently vultures defaults to installing in your home directory.
[06:11] <fermatstheorem> Common2: thats the ecosystem, choice makes the species resilient to change
[06:11] <Common2> well, yea,  i know a lot of ppl who leave their pcs on 24/7
[06:11] <Madnez> make: Nothing to be done for `nethack'
[06:12] <linux__alien> how do i install Sun Java in Ubuntu?
[06:12] <Zenerek> faileas: i have not noticed such a difference, of course my speed suck, any examples?
[06:12] <linux__alien> can i install this package?
[06:12] <linux__alien> 2sdk1.4
[06:12] <linux__alien> Blackdown Java(TM) 2 SDK, Standard Editio
[06:12] <Viaken> Madnez: "make home"
[06:12] <H3g3m0n> Common2:  Also places like Australia have caps on the amount of data you can transfer and will even charge you excessive amounts for going over
[06:12] <Madnez> nope
[06:12] <Madnez> nothing
[06:12] <fermatstheorem> linux__alien: synaptic is ur friend
[06:12] <Common2> h, and is anyone from toronto  here
[06:12] <faileas> well personally
[06:12] <faileas> gotten torrents up to 20-30 kbps
[06:12] <linux__alien> fermatstheorem, yes i tried and got this package just want to know whether i can install this package ? 2sdk1.4
[06:12] <linux__alien> Blackdown Java(TM) 2 SDK, Standard Edition
[06:12] <Common2> cuz on october 26-27 i think is the opensource conference,  at York university
[06:12] <linux__alien> coz it says some Blackdown Java ?
[06:12] <faileas> with a direct download, up to 100 kbps? ;)
[06:13] <Viaken> I'm hoping conary catches on. Or deltup with Gentoo. Both transfer only the changes of each upgrade, rather than retransferring the entire package. It's verrrrrry nice.
[06:13] <faileas> blackdown is the gny java methinks
[06:13] <faileas> gnu
[06:13] <Viaken> IIRC, blackdown's not open source.
[06:13] <Common2> I tried the new sabayon dvd,  it's pretty fucking awesome
[06:13] <Viaken> !blackdown
[06:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about blackdown - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:13] <Common2> isnt blackdown the java replacement thingy
[06:14] <fermatstheorem> linux__alien: if you are 32bit ahd have enabled restricted repos you can get sun's own jre and sdk
[06:14] <usser> hey hey
[06:14] <H3g3m0n> Viaken:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackdown_Java
[06:14] <Viaken> Madnez: No? ...are you in Desktop/vultures-3.1.0?
[06:14] <Madnez> yeah kinda
[06:14] <Common2> What advantages would there be to using 64bit,  if you have like 4gb of ram,  would the system now be able to use it all?
[06:14] <Zenerek> faileas: well 23.kbytes sex is the best i can get torrent or direct pisses me because i'm supposed to have minimum 500 kbit a sec
[06:14] <maj> are there any repos that have libc6 >= 2.3.6-6
[06:14] <Viaken> kinda? lol
[06:14] <Madnez> renamed it :)
[06:14] <maj> ?
[06:14] <Viaken> Madnez: What's the output of "pwd"?
[06:15] <Viaken> "Despite widespread confusion, Blackdown is neither free software nor open-source software."
[06:15] <Madnez> make: Nothing to be done for `nethack'
[06:15] <gnomefreak> maj: dont change the version of libc6 on your system
[06:15] <faileas> Zenerek: you NEVER get as advertised
[06:15] <Madnez> sktop:~/Desktop/vultures$
[06:15] <Viaken> Madnez: What's "ls" show?
[06:15] <gnomefreak> maj: its unsafe and will break alot if not everything
[06:15] <man> rls
[06:15] <Common2> list
[06:15] <man> ls
[06:15] <Madnez> haha
[06:15] <Madnez> doc and nethack
[06:15] <Zenerek> faileas: yeah they say minimum 500 max 1000
[06:15] <Madnez> same as just now
[06:15] <man> chinese?
[06:15] <maj> gnomefreak, see, i cant install the latest clamav unless i update
[06:16] <doug__> hello?
[06:16] <Viaken> Madnez: Hold on...
[06:16] <maj> or is there a solution that doesn't involve building from source
[06:16] <maj> ?
[06:16] <doug__> i have a question
[06:16] <Madnez> must be missing something
[06:16] <gnomefreak> maj: if its not in the repos for your system like feisty-updates than dont play with it
[06:16] <doug__> about he printer setup for ubuntu
[06:16] <SEppl> http://www.news.com/8301-10784_3-9777136-7.html?tag=head
[06:17] <Viaken> maj, libc upgrades basically require recompiling the whole system.
[06:17] <Madnez> btw
[06:17] <axz> guys whats link for firefox 32 on 64bit
[06:17] <Madnez> where you get vul 3.1?
[06:17] <Madnez> thought 2.1 latest :D
[06:17] <Viaken> Madnez: Typo :)
[06:17] <Madnez> ahh
[06:17] <Madnez> was thinking site not updated.... or soemthing
[06:18] <msingh> anyone running ubuntu on amd64?
[06:18] <Viaken> Madnez: Ok, you're going to have to get the full package, I think. :(
[06:18] <Viaken> Madnez: Rather than just the nethack-only one
[06:18] <Madnez> haha
[06:18] <Madnez> unix?
[06:18] <fermatstheorem> msingh: i run 64bit ubuntu on my core2duo
[06:18] <Madnez> i have the unix package
[06:18] <Zenerek> Madnez well maybe it was a typo but you don't always get the latest apps if you go by the standard repos
[06:19] <Madnez> tried the add/remove
[06:19] <Madnez> no vulture
[06:19] <Madnez> only falcon
[06:19] <Viaken> Zenerek: He's trying to build the latest from source.
[06:19] <msingh> fermatstheorem, cool. anyting in particular to watch out for? how is the package support?
[06:19] <linux__alien> how do i enable restricted repos in Ubuntu
[06:19] <linux__alien> i need to install SUN Java
[06:20] <msingh> linux__alien, editing /etc/sources.dist
[06:20] <Viaken> msingh: Flash can be a bit of a pain.
[06:20] <fermatstheorem> msingh: the only problem is sunjre plugin for firefox
[06:20] <msingh> er, etc/apt/sources.dist
[06:20] <fermatstheorem> msingh: you might want to install 32 bit firefox if you want sun jre and flash
[06:20] <Viaken> msingh: I thought it was /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:20] <msingh> ah i see.. well i dont expect to have flash work properly anyway :)
[06:20] <Delta> where can I find help about AssaultCube?? My problem is that I try to run it but nothing happends ... I just cant execute it
[06:20] <Zenerek> Viaken; still my point is that you gotta go of the standard repos sometimes
[06:20] <fermatstheorem> msingh: flash works fine in 32 bit
[06:20] <msingh> Viaken, yes you are right, my memory is failing me
[06:20] <JuJuBee_> I have a usb->db9 converter so I can use minicom to console to a router.  When configuring minicom, what /dev do I use for it?
[06:21] <Zenerek> damn typos>:o
[06:21] <linux__alien> are these the repos?

[06:21] <linux__alien> fermatstheorem, i am sorry
[06:21] <Viaken> Madnez: You'll need to go to http://www.darkarts.co.za/project/vultures/download and get "Source code for full project".
[06:22] <michael> I'm new to Ubuntu and need to delete a file, but get a message that says i'm not the "owner", can some one help?
[06:22] <termipeitto> can someone recommend any usb-live-linux that is easy to install from windows?
[06:22] <dennda> michael: read "man sudo"
[06:22] <Geoffrey2> hmmm, for some reason Adobe Acrobat Reader is no longer included in any of the repositories?
[06:22] <fermatstheorem> linux__alien: check ifyou have added all the repos sys->admin->software sources
[06:22] <Viaken> !sudo
[06:22] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[06:30] <msingh> xconfigurator or something like that
[06:30] <ZeroA4> msingh, there is one from xorg (xorgcfg i think) and others from drivers like nvidia settings
[06:31] <fermatstheorem> msingh: sax2 in suse is wonderful, theonly option we have now is system->pref
[06:31] <dpml> ok - with 1173 people here - maybe someone knows how to configure ubuntu fiesty to play off the rack DVDs - I've tried everything in the readme files, I've gone though all of the ubuntu forums and installed X, Y and Z - but MoviePlayer still puts up the less than helpful dialog - "Totem cannot play this type of media (DVD) because you do not have the appropriate plugins to handle it.".  Is there anyone out there who can help?
[06:31] <Viaken> DroNix: What did you update from? to? Do you know what changed?
[06:31] <msingh> fermatstheorem, yes but that's close to useless .. it doesn't let me choose the native res of my lcd :(
[06:31] <H3g3m0n> msingh:  There is System>Prefrences>Screen Resolution but that will only work if the xorg.conf has the resolution in it already
[06:31] <msingh> ZeroA4, cheers, will try that.
[06:32] <DroNix> I installed everything from the update, when I restarted I had to reinstall my wireless driver and now I have no sound
[06:32] <fermatstheorem> msi

[06:32] <Viaken> DroNix: Were you changing from Edgy to Fiesty or was it usual updates?
[06:32] <Viaken> dpml: Be warned that libdvdcss2 may be illegal in the US.
[06:32] <DroNix> usual updates
[06:33] <msingh> fermatstheorem, i'll try that once i've finished downloading my 64bit live cd :)
[06:33] <DroNix> I have fiesty, just updated some stuff
[06:33] <DroNix> fiestey is 7.04 right?
[06:33] <dpml> I have  libdvdcss2 installed

[06:35] <Kazero> Hey all, quick question. I want to dual boot my windows an ubuntu copies. Heres the kicker: I know how to, but I lost my ubuntu CD. I also dont have any blank CDs or a USB key large enough to hold ubuntu. Any way to start the install from windows?
[06:35] <Viaken> DroNix: Open a terminal and type "lspci | grep audio"
[06:36] <Viaken> Kazero: Wubi. Let me get the site for you. It's unsupported, though.
[06:36] <Madnez> guys
[06:36] <Viaken> !wubi
[06:36] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[06:36] <Madnez> i found this black potion but auto pickup doesnt take it
[06:36] <Madnez> oops
[06:36] <Madnez> wrong channel
[06:36] <ColdFyre> i updated to tribe 5, now evolution no longer auto filters emails..i made sure the option is checked, removed/readded account even
[06:36] <fermatstheorem> Kazero: you need some isntall medium to kick off install from boot-up
[06:36] <DroNix> viaken: now what?
[06:36] <Viaken> Kazero: http://wubi-installer.org
[06:36] <Kazero> Viaken: Thanks. This will let me install 7.04 correct? Even 6.06 and doing dist upgrade would work I suppose.
[06:37] <Viaken> Kazero: It installs 7.04, yes.
[06:37] <fermatstheorem> Kazero: you might want to think about netboot
[06:37] <Viaken> DroNix: What did it output?
[06:37] <DroNix> nothing
[06:37] <ianm_> any recommendations for disk encryption?  something that works with any kernel version (ie not truecrypt) ?
[06:37] <Viaken> DroNix: That's a new one for me. I'm afraid I can't help you. :\
[06:38] <Augustus_Kolya> DO NOT USE WUBI
[06:38] <Augustus_Kolya> :P
[06:38] <Viaken> o.o
[06:38] <DroNix> viaken: is there a way to uninstall my audio driver update?
[06:38] <Oswy> Hey, I'm having a problem with Synaptic, can someone help me please?
[06:38] <Viaken> !mask
[06:38] <Kazero> fermatstheorem: Explain this netboot. Ive never heard of it before
[06:38] <ubotu> Tor & other common anonymizing proxies get abused to attack & spam Ubuntu channels, so they're blocked. Get a cloak from Freenode instead, and stop wasting your time with Tor: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks

[06:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about masking - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:38] <Oswy> None of the packages are showing up at all.
[06:39] <Augustus_Kolya> Wubi is slow and as soon as you use system updates, it'll break
[06:39] <Kazero> Augustus_Kolya: Really? Darn.
[06:39] <Oswy> I can paste the error message if needed.
[06:39] <Viaken> Augustus_Kolya: I just installed and ran system updates and it works... It is slow, tho.
[06:39] <Augustus_Kolya> that link was written by me, I tried it
[06:39] <Augustus_Kolya> it has a custom HAL Daemon
[06:39] <Viaken> ew
[06:39] <Augustus_Kolya> but system updates tries to overwrite it with a normal one
[06:39] <fermatstheorem> Kazero: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot
[06:40] <maj> can i use debian repos for ubuntu?
[06:40] <Stwange> sorry to repeat but, can anyone help me? I'm trying to get nm-applet running on my system tray. I tried ps aux | grep nm-applet, and it shows "nm-applet --sm-disable" running, but it's not in gnome. I tried "kill 6003", then "nm-applet", but the terminal just hangs. I tried ALT-F2 -> "nm-applet" but it just shows it running on ps, it still doesn't run. I'm actually tempted to do a reinstall just for that
[06:40] <Augustus_Kolya> then HAL can't initialize
[06:40] <dfgas> what is better of just these 2 cards, fx5200lp 128meg agp or a 9200se 128meg agp?
[06:40] <Augustus_Kolya> maj: I would SERIOUSLY advise not using Debian repos for Ubuntu
[06:40] <fermatstheorem> Kazero: ia m afraid even for this, u need some install meduim. you can download minimal install stuff and do ti
[06:40] <Oswy> Anyone? It should be a pretty quick fix, just adding something in a file somewhere, but I have no idea how.
[06:41] <Augustus_Kolya> maj: In fact, never install a foreign repo unless it's one you trust, and only has a particular package or two
[06:41] <bruenig> Oswy, close the gui pacifier and do "sudo apt-get update"
[06:41] <Augustus_Kolya> like Winehq
[06:41] <Viaken> Kazero: Best find yourself some install medium, then. lol
[06:41] <Oswy> bruenig: I'll try that, thanks.
[06:41] <plus_M2> I'm having trouble changing my default shell from tcsh to bash in my school account
[06:41] <jaro> Hey guys... can anyone help me to setup a wireless printer ??
[06:41] <Kazero> fermatstheorem: Problem is I have no medium. I do have a 6.06 64-bit copy, but it wont install on my laptop (Core Duo, which I thought had EM64T)
[06:41] <Scunizi> I loaded wine for both Dapper & Feisty (gnome) and when I run winecfg the text in the configuration box is TOTALLY un-readable. Does anyone know of a fix?
[06:41] <H3g3m0n> Might be possible to fix Wubi by transferring it onto a real partition: http://lubi.sourceforge.net/lvpm.html 
[06:41] <plus_M2> When I try to run chsh it gives me the error "chsh: *myname* not found in /etc/passwd"
[06:41] <Augustus_Kolya> kazero: 64-bit should work
[06:41] <Augustus_Kolya> kazero: does it kernel panic?
[06:41] <fermatstheorem> Kazero: core duo is em64t
[06:42] <Augustus_Kolya> or just skip the CD and head into Windows?
[06:42] <Oswy> bruenig: Didn't work.
[06:42] <Oswy> Still have the same error message.
[06:42] <Oswy> "E: The package virtualbox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[06:42] <Oswy> E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report."
[06:42] <Viaken> Oswy: Looks like you'll have to download the virtualbox deb again and reinstall it.
[06:42] <Oswy> k, so how do I do that?
[06:43] <Viaken> Or remove it entirely...
[06:43] <Viaken> Oswy: How did you install it the first time?
[06:43] <Oswy> I...have no idea.
[06:43] <Oswy> Sorry.

[06:47] <simone_> how can i get a registration?
[06:47] <Oswy> So Viaken, how do I just reinstall all my packages?
[06:47] <Viaken> Oswy: I'd recommend "aptitude remove virtualbox" then "aptitude update" and "aptitude upgrade"
[06:47] <Viaken> Then you can "aptitude install virtualbox" if things go well.
[06:47] <fermatstheorem> simone_: hi. could you be specific?
[06:47] <Oswy> OK, thanks.
[06:48] <Sijmes_> my feisty isnt recognising usb sticks anymore ...?
[06:48] <Viaken> ninnemana: Do you know what partition is your root install?
[06:49] <ninnemana> yeah
[06:49] <tomm1> do you know these three volume control buttons on most notebooks? well, since the last kernel upgrade the small volume popup comes, but it says that volume is at 0%. i also can't mute the sound. everything else works
[06:49] <ninnemana> i mounted my ext3
[06:49] <ninnemana> it's hdb1
[06:49] <Oswy> Viaken: "E: I wasn't able to locate a file for the virtualbox package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package. (due to missing arch)
[06:49] <Oswy> E: Couldn't lock list directory..are you root?"
[06:49] <Viaken> DroNix: I've had problems with my laptop and a STAC9200, but I have an nvidia chipset. Try searching ubuntuforums.org with "HDA ATI SB" and STAC92xx?
[06:49] <Oswy> wtf
[06:50] <Viaken> ninnemana: Ok...one second
[06:50] <DroNix> viaken: ok thx
[06:51] <Viaken> Oswy: You'll have to sudo all those, sorry, but that doesn't look like it's going to work... How about "dpkg -r virtualbox"?
[06:51] <Oswy> I did sudo those.
[06:51] <Viaken> ninnemana: Did you mount it to /mnt or /media?
[06:51] <tomm1> can anyone help with my sound problem?
[06:51] <ninnemana> mnt

[06:55] <axz> guys where to find repos of all other software for ubuntu?
[06:55] <selutha> need some help with fglrx driver install, I followed the guide here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI and when do a fglrxinfo it does say that the opengl vender string is ATI Technologies Inc. but when i run fglrxgears i get very low frames 250ish. Checking the Xorg log file i see this line: AIGLX: reverting to software rendering the only error i see before it is AIGLX error: dlsym for __driCreateNewScreen_20050
[06:55] <selutha> 727 failed (/usr/lib/dri/fglrx_dri.so: undefined symbol: __driCreateNewScreen_20050727). At this point i am getting lost on what to do next. Any one got a pointer?
[06:55] <tek-ops> here's a question
[06:55] <Nevermind> hey guys, how do i install Kubuntu aswell as my Ubuntu tht i got and be able to use both?
[06:55] <tek-ops> is it worse to eat McDonalds, at McDonalds or just as bad if you bring it back to work?  or worse to bring back?
[06:55] <ninnemana> when u run grub-install it tells me install_device not specified
[06:55] <tomm1> fermatstheorem, i have a realtek 862 soundcard provided by my intel chipset, it isnt supported by alsa, so i have to patch the sources at every kernel upgrade. this has always worked perfectly. since last kernel upgrade 2.6.20-15 -> 2.6.20.16, the sound still works after recompiling the alsa-module, but when i press the volume control keys, the small popup says that volume is at 0% although it is at about 60%. theres no reaction (except
[06:55] <tomm1> the popup) to pressing the volume buttons
[06:55] <Oswy> So Viaken, is there a way to just wipe/reinstall the package in itself?
[06:55] <neverblue> Nevermind, so you want to use KDE and Gnome, basically
[06:56] <Nevermind> neverblue, yeh
[06:56] <Viaken> ninnemana: Ah, sorry. "sudo grub-install /dev/hda" probably.
[06:56] <tomm1> fermatstheorem, i'm on feisty with gnome
[06:56] <Moduliz0r__> is it just me or is the default Ubuntu CD creator a complete load of crap that fails at every disc?
[06:56] <H3g3m0n> tek-ops:  I think its bad eitherway, try KFC instead
[06:56] <Viaken> Oswy: Have you changed your repos recently?
[06:56] <fermatstheorem> tomm1: ok...
[06:57] <fermatstheorem> tomm1: is alsamixer working fine?
[06:57] <Oswy> No, I just needed to check it out a while back and encountered this error.
[06:57] <neverblue> Nevermind, sudo aptitude install kdesktop (I believe)
[06:57] <tomm1> yes
[06:57] <Moduliz0r__> how would I burn an iso in Ubuntu Live CD?
[06:57] <roadfish> how do I make an image of a DVD onto my harddrive and then have kaffiene/mplayer/etc play from that image?
[06:57] <tomm1> the only thing is this popup and that theres no reaction on the buttons
[06:57] <neverblue> sorry, Nevermind
[06:58] <selutha> P.S. Is aiglx due to beryl? if so I want to remove it any pointers on that?
[06:58] <neverblue> its sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[06:58] <neverblue> !beryl | selutha
[06:58] <ubotu> selutha: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[06:58] <Moduliz0r__> how would I burn an iso in Ubuntu Live CD?
[06:58] <n3pla> the restricted driver must what gave me the use of my sd card... is there a place I cab get the deb or rpm and install it in mandriva instead of ubuntu
[06:58] <blubloblu> Moduliz0r__: how many cd-drives do you have?
[06:58] <H3g3m0n> Moduliz0r__:  You probally need to install gnomeburner or brasero which should install onto a livecd enviroment without problems
[06:58] <fermatstheorem> tomm1: i had had an unsupported audio card, but patching it made the volume controls work...
[06:58] <Moduliz0r__> I have 2 CD drives
[06:58] <fermatstheorem> tomm1: strange..

[06:59] <fermatstheorem> tomm1:system->pref->sound?
[06:59] <H3g3m0n> Moduliz0r__:  Installing works fine on the livecd
[06:59] <neverblue> Moduliz0r__, actually you can
[06:59] <Moduliz0r__> really?
[06:59] <blubloblu> Moduliz0r__: you should be able to install stuff
[06:59] <Oswy> k. thanks

[07:00] <ColdFyre> isn't it gnometoaster?
[07:00] <H3g3m0n> Sijmes:  Check 'dmesg | tail' from the console after inserting one
[07:00] <Viaken> ninnemana: *nods* ok "sudo mount /boot && sudo grub-install /dev/hda" lol
[07:00] <Moduliz0r__> ill try that

[07:01] <NET||abuse> Hi guys.. just setup apache2 and php5, trying to set some php_value directives in a .htaccess file,, /var/log/apache2/errors.log tells me "/path/to/file/.htaccess: php_value not alolowed here" what is causing that does anyone know?
[07:01] <ColdFyre> Moduliz0r__, gtoaster it is
[07:01] <ColdFyre> I just looked
[07:01] <tomm1> NET||abuse, which value do you want to set?
[07:01] <Moduliz0r__> ok
[07:01] <neverblue> NET||abuse, maybe try in #apache and in #php ?
[07:01] <tomm1> NET||abuse, not every php.ini value ist allow to be set in .htaccess files
[07:01] <Moduliz0r__> my Windows just ate it's anus, so I'm fed up and it's time to move back to ubuntu.

[07:02] <tom94130> hi, I have a problem with update manager, can anyone help?
[07:02] <fermatstheorem> tomm1: system > preferences ->sound
[07:02] <neverblue> !ask | tom94130
[07:02] <ubotu> tom94130: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:03] <Moduliz0r__> what console command would I do to list my CD Drives?
[07:03] <neverblue> Moduliz0r__, do you have no other options ?
[07:04] <tom94130> thanks neverblue, ok, I have an update stuck in update manager, it wants to update version x.x to version x.x, the same version; if I run the update it seems to work, but udpate manager says I still have the same update waiting
[07:04] <Moduliz0r__> no other options to do what?
[07:04] <neverblue> what you want to do
[07:04] <Moduliz0r__> I just need to see which drive is which
[07:04] <Viaken> tom94130: Is it compiz? :P
[07:04] <Sijmes> it seems to be there .. is in gnome partition editor too just doesnt auto mount to desktop anymore ..did 2 days ago ..?
[07:04] <ninnemana> Viaken: "mount: can't find /boot in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab" any ideas?
[07:04] <rafaelscj> Moduliz0r__, nano /etc/fstab maybe
[07:04] <Moduliz0r__> ok
[07:04] <tom94130> clear the update, it has been run and it is a little annoying to keep being reminded that I have an update
[07:05] <Viaken> ninnemana: Ah...don't suppose you know what partition it is? You can "sudo parted /dev/hdb" and type "p" to show your partition table for that drive.
[07:05] <neverblue> tom94130, in synaptic ?
[07:05] <tom94130> yes
[07:05] <[nrx] > lala :)
[07:06] <Sijmes> hi
[07:06] <Sijmes> is this allowed ...?
[07:06] <ninnemana> wait, what partition what is?
[07:06] <Viaken> Oswy: Don't suppose you know what version it was?
[07:06] <neverblue> tom94130, unselect the package, so its not trying to install it
[07:06] <Madnez> gonna sleep
[07:06] <Madnez> need sleep
[07:06] <neverblue> tom94130, or just remove/reinstall it
[07:06] <Madnez> be back later, ciao
[07:06] <[nrx] > question: why is it the only way i can get the network up and running here at home is by using iwconfig. Why can't i get it to work by using the network manager?
[07:06] <Oswy> Viaken: Nope, sorry.
[07:07] <Viaken> Oswy: The site says 1.5.0 is current. 1.4.0 seems to be in the repos? Try going to http://virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads and downloading the "Fiesty Fawn" deb and reinstalling it.
[07:07] <H3g3m0n> Moduliz0r__:  System>Prefrences>Hardware information, might have it
[07:07] <Moduliz0r__> gtoaster isn't on synaptic
[07:07] <foug> I have 2 buttons on my mouse that change the volume from high to low and after installing compiz-fusion the icon for it when i pressed the button has changed. Anyone know what i'm talking about?
[07:07] <tom94130> I thought of that, the package is compiz-core, and as a dependency it wants to remove ubuntu-desktop - will that cause problems or can I do it with out killing the desktop
[07:07] <rafaelscj> [nrx] , what did you try? manual IP?
[07:07] <Oswy> k, thanks
[07:07] <axz> !repo
[07:07] <Oswy> Il try that in a bit.
[07:07] <DrakeJustice> anybody in here have a custom usplash?
[07:07] <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
[07:07] <[nrx] > rafaelscj: yes, it's manual IP
[07:07] <axz> wtf can someone help me please?
[07:07] <ninnemana> Viaken: my ext3 is hdb1
[07:07] <Pici> !usplash | DrakeJustice I dont, but you can read this
[07:07] <ubotu> DrakeJustice I dont, but you can read this: 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
[07:08] <yetengji> what about the custom splash?
[07:08] <[nrx] > rafaelscj: the only way i can get it to work is by running iwconfig ath0 essid <essid> enc <wepkey>
[07:08] <[nrx] > then it works
[07:08] <neverblue> tom94130, yes, it will cause issues to remove that
[07:08] <kritzstapf> when i try to capture my line in, which is hearable through a feedback channel, the sounds gets kind of bad, i tried audacity and qarecord, both do the same.. (snd_ca0106) any ideas?
[07:08] <Viaken> ninnemana: Try "sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /boot && sudo grub-install /dev/hda"
[07:08] <neverblue> !anyone | axz
[07:08] <ubotu> axz: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:08] <DrakeJustice> pici that doesn't help... i need a guide for gutsy...
[07:08] <Pici> !flash64 | axz
[07:08] <ubotu> axz: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[07:08] <ninnemana> Viaken: /dev/hda does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
[07:09] <H3g3m0n> Moduliz0r__:  You might need to enable the repos on the livecd and apt-get update
[07:09] <NET||abuse> neverblue, i want to get this working just for nice urls in a wiki, here's the .htaccess file and error logs http://www.pastebin.org/2437
[07:09] <Pici> DrakeJustice: Then you should ask in #ubuntu+1   This channel is only for released versions.
[07:09] <Viaken> ninnemana: Try "sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /boot && sudo grub-install /dev/hdb" then... I didn't realize hdb was your main drive. lol
[07:09] <axz> i dont need Flash
[07:09] <axz> i need repos of other apps
[07:09] <Moduliz0r__> argh why is it so complicatedto burn an iso
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> !easysource
[07:09] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[07:09] <Viaken> axz: What apps?
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> axz whats apps exactly?
[07:09] <axz> that are ubuntu packges
[07:09] <neverblue> NET||abuse, my assistance was only to direct you to the proper channels
[07:10] <axz> like media apps
[07:10] <rafaelscj> [nrx] , did you try disable then enable that conection after configurating?
[07:10] <axz> or ati drivers
[07:10] <NET||abuse> neverblue, oh,, sorry :) ok,,
[07:10] <[nrx] > yes
[07:10] <axz> and updates of it
[07:10] <[nrx] > rafaelscj: yes
[07:10] <Pici> !enter | axz
[07:10] <ubotu> axz: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:10] <axz> oke
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> axz you may want to read up on the ubuntu packing system and apt-get. it makes it all rather easy once ya learn the basics
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> !apt
[07:10] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[07:10] <ninnemana> Viaken: so what we were trying to accomplish was to set me linux partition up with the boot flag right?
[07:10] <DrakeJustice> Pici, thx
[07:10] <n3tfury> Moduliz0r__: what's the problem
[07:10] <axz> guys i just stapt from opensuse to ubuntu open suse has webpage with all kind of repos
[07:11] <axz> thats why i ask my self does ubuntu have it
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> axz i just pasted that easysource site that does the same thing.
[07:11] <axz> ok ethx
[07:11] <axz> i check it out
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> axz but most of the opackages you need are in the basic repo sites. Which are not all enabled by default.
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> the package manager has options to enable them I belive with some check box's somewhere.
[07:11] <Moduliz0r__> n3tfury: I'm in Ubuntu Live CD and I need to burn an ISO image, but I have 2 CD drives
[07:11] <Pici> axz: Also System>Administration>Software Sources can help you as well.
[07:11] <bitwiseshiftleft> question: is it possible to get compiz to recognize multimedia/internet keys?  I'm trying to get it to use the back/next buttons on my keyboard for window switching
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> OR that add/remove program tool has them
[07:11] <neverblue> tom94130, you could check out at http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/index.en.html
[07:11] <Viaken> ninnemana: /boot is where files for boot are stored. The kernel, grub settings, etc. What I was trying to accomplish was installing GRUB, which is what I think you originally asked for?
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> It pays to learn the apt fundamentals. :0
[07:12] <Moduliz0r__> n3tfury: And the default CD creator seems to fail on any CD
[07:12] <neverblue> tom94130, I dont have time to consult the documentation myself
[07:12] <tom94130> neverblue,  any idea what I can do?  It seems I could wait for the next version of the package or ubuntu and hope that clears up the problem, is there anywhere I can go to get info on forcing synaptic to accept that the package in question is current?  Should I report a bug somewhere (where and what to send)?
[07:12] <n3tfury> Moduliz0r__: are you specifically telling it to burn an ISO image?
[07:12] <n3tfury> Moduliz0r__: not a boot cd, etc
[07:12] <Moduliz0r__> yes I right click the iso and select open with CD creator
[07:12] <Moduliz0r__> it's actually a Ubuntu ISO
[07:13] <n3tfury> Moduliz0r__: with the app open, choose burn iso instead
[07:13] <tom94130> thanks neverblue I'll have a look there, on second thoughts, I've looked there already :(
[07:13] <pvl1> if i have an obscure sound card, should ubuntu still be able to record from a microphone?
[07:13] <Pici> Moduliz0r__: Or "burn disk image"
[07:13] <blubloblu> pvl1: one way to find out
[07:13] <bitwiseshiftleft> ... for that matter, is it possible to get compiz to antialias or sync to vbl?
[07:13] <Moduliz0r__> how about xfburn?
[07:13] <Moduliz0r__> K3B?
[07:13] <n3tfury> yeah, i don't recall the default burner gui :)
[07:13] <pvl1> blubloblu well thats the thing, it apparently wont record
[07:14] <n3tfury> k3b is what i use
[07:14] <Moduliz0r__> ill try tht
[07:14] <Moduliz0r__> at
[07:14] <blubloblu> pvl1: what is the model?
[07:14] <n3tfury> okie
[07:14] <rafaelscj> does k3b work with gnome?
[07:15] <Pici> rafaelscj: Yes.
[07:15] <pvl1> blubloblu its a CS 4614/22/24/30
[07:15] <Moduliz0r__> I only have one spare blank disc, so if this buggers up I won't be happy, because I don't have a working OS on my HDD right now
[07:16] <n3tfury> Moduliz0r__: well, good luck. i just used it on 7.04 Ubuntu about an hour ago to burn this Sabayon live cd which i'm on right now.
[07:16] <rafaelscj> [nrx] , what icon does network-manager show?
[07:17] <pvl1> blubloblu cirrus logic
[07:17] <ninnemana> Viaken: so i rebooted to test grub, and now i get the grub command line, but that's it, no O/S list
[07:17] <Oswy> Viaken: Hmm, how do I open a program as root?
[07:17] <Oswy> I'm trying to install virtualbox 1.5.
[07:17] <cyberphaz> sudo
[07:18] <Oswy> Well, yeah, but how do I open a program through terminal?
[07:18] <Viaken> Oswy: "gksudo VBox" I think
[07:18] <ninnemana> Oswy: to open a program as root open terminal and type in sudo "program name"
[07:18] <Oswy> Oh, k.
[07:18] <Viaken> ninnemana: We may've mounted the wrong partition to /boot
[07:18] <[nrx] > rafaelscj: huh?
[07:18] <plus_M2> I'm having trouble changing my default shell from tcsh to bash in my school account
[07:18] <plus_M2> When I try to run chsh it gives me the error "chsh: *myname* not found in /etc/passwd"
[07:18] <Kwanun> ubuntu compilation can't burn with dvdr?
[07:18] <ninnemana> want me to give u a list of all my partitions?
[07:19] <Oswy> ninnemana: Command not found, it says when I do that.
[07:19] <Oswy> Well, I just put in the .deb file's name.
[07:19] <ninnemana> program doesn't exist then
[07:19] <Kwanun> ubuntu compilation can't burn with dvdr?
[07:19] <Oswy> Hmm.
[07:19] <Oswy> k
[07:20] <Viaken> Oswy: Oh, if you haven't installed the deb, you'll need to "sudo dpkg -i debname.deb"
[07:20] <Oswy> k
[07:20] <ninnemana> Viaken, i have hdb1 (ext3), hdb2 (swap), and hdb3 (ntfs-vista)
[07:21] <Oswy> Viaken: k, it's installed.
[07:21] <ninnemana> with the boot flag set on hdb1
[07:21] <Viaken> ninnemana: ls /mnt/hdb1/boot
[07:21] <Nevermind> how do i select what envirnment I want on startup if I got Ubuntu and Kubuntu installed?
[07:21] <Oswy> Yay, Synaptic works again!
[07:21] <Oswy> Thanks!
[07:21] <Kwanun> ubuntu compilation can't burn with dvdr?
[07:21] <Viaken> No problem :)
[07:21] <ninnemana> yeah hdb1 is set to boot
[07:22] <ninnemana> if i set vista to boot won't it try and replace grub with windows manager?
[07:22] <Viaken> ninnemana: Yeah. You shouldn't have to do that.
[07:22] <rafaelscj> [nrx] , isn't there a network-manager's icon?
[07:22] <Viaken> I'm just wondering what happened to your grub.cfg
[07:22] <ninnemana> where can i find it?
[07:22] <ninnemana> (or should i be able to find it)
[07:23] <Kwanun> ubuntu compilation can't burn with dvdr?
[07:23] <Viaken> ninnemana: /mnt/hdb1/boot/grub. May also be called menu.lst. Usually one's a symlink to the other, though I forget which way it goes.
[07:23] <Viaken> menu.lst apparestly
[07:24] <Kwanun> UBUNTU ISO CAN'T BURN TO DVDR?
[07:24] <chris_> er irc.rizon.net
[07:25] <Viaken> ninnemana: Does it exist?
[07:25] <ninnemana> Viaken: yeah, and it lists my o/s
[07:25] <Kwanun> UBUNTU ISO CAN'T BURN TO DVDR?
[07:25] <Kwanun> UBUNTU ISO CAN'T BURN TO DVDR?
[07:25] <SlimeyPete> stop shouting. It's rude.
[07:25] <Viaken> If I knew, I'd answer you, Kwanun
[07:25] <plus_M2> Could someone please answer my question about chsh
[07:25] <plus_M2> I'm having trouble changing my default shell from tcsh to bash in my school account
[07:25] <plus_M2> When I try to run chsh it gives me the error "chsh: *myname* not found in /etc/passwd"
[07:26] <Kilroo> Has anyone else tried the new fglrx and switched back to Mesa again already?
[07:26] <cyberphaz> why wouldnt the iso be able tp be put on dvdr
[07:26] <Viaken> plus_M2: Do you have admin rights on the machine?
[07:26] <cyberphaz> works for me
[07:26] <plus_M2> No
[07:26] <plus_M2> But shouldn't I be able to change my own default shell?
[07:26] <ninnemana> Viaken: but apparently it hasn't updated since i installed vista, because it still lists XP as an operating system
[07:26] <Viaken> plus_M2: You'd probably have to ask your admin, then. You may be in some type of chroot environment.
[07:26] <plus_M2> hmm
[07:26] <Viaken> ninnemana: It may call it XP. As long as it points to the right partition, you're good. You can change the name while you're there if you like.
[07:27] <Viaken> plus_M2: You could try "grep *yourname* /etc/passwd"
[07:27] <plus_M2> Not in there

[07:28] <Wikzo> How do I turn of my cd/dvd drive to save more power for my Acer Aspire laptop (Ubuntu 7.04)? Is there any way to do it in an options menu or somthing like that?
[07:28] <Ajedrez> How to Edit a PDF?
[07:28] <Oswy> OK, I just installed a program, but I have no idea where to find it.
[07:28] <Ajedrez> :)
[07:28] <Oswy> I installed it through the package manager, but what now?
[07:29] <Wikzo> Just type programname in the console
[07:29] <Wikzo> like "firefox"
[07:29] <Kwanun> use which command
[07:29] <Oswy> Oh.
[07:29] <Oswy> Right.
[07:29] <Oswy> Thanks.
[07:29] <Wikzo> it is very logical :)
[07:29] <Oswy> Yeah.
[07:30] <Wikzo> But in many times you can find the program in the Program menu bar
[07:30] <Wikzo> Which program is it?
[07:30] <Pici> Kwanun: whos on first?
[07:31] <Wikzo> How do I turn of my cd/dvd drive to save more power for my Acer Aspire laptop (Ubuntu 7.04)? Is there any way to do it in an options menu or somthing like that?
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> Wikzo if its not being used.. thats about as off as it gets I think.
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> Wikzo there are some laptop-mode tools in the repos to help power savings
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> !find laptop
[07:31] <ubotu> Found: laptop-detect, laptop-mode-tools, education-laptop, klaptopdaemon, laptop-mode (and 3 others)
[07:31] <robert_> hm, what's package name for the xscreensaver extension?
[07:32] <Wikzo> I have read about laptop mode, but unsure about what it does ...
[07:32] <holycow> guys i'm dist upgrading to feisty on one box and i have a whole bunch of dependencie requirements like this:  libbonobo2-0 (>= 2.15.0) but 2.14.0-0ubuntu2
[07:32] <holycow> the problem doesn't seem to be versioning but naming
[07:32] <Oswy> OK, another stupid question: "The VirtualBox kernel driver is not accessible to the current user. Make sure that the user has write permissions for /dev/vboxdrv by adding them to the vboxusers groups. You will need to logout for the change to take effect.."
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> read the description of it in the package manager.:) it sets some timeouts and other tweaks as far as i know.
[07:32] <holycow> what the hell is going on there?
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> !info laptop-mode
[07:32] <ubotu> laptop-mode: laptop-mode aims to reduce the power consumption of laptops. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4 (feisty), package size 13 kB, installed size 88 kB
[07:32] <epiclulz> which distro does linus use?
[07:32] <Oswy> Where would the vboxusers groups me/how can I add a user to it?
[07:32] <Myrtti> good evening everyone
[07:32] <Oswy> Wait, nvm, I think I found it.
[07:33] <Wikzo> Oswy: Maybe sudo? :)
[07:33] <Dr_Willis> !groups
[07:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about groups - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:33] <Oswy> I just checked the box in the system thingy.
[07:33] <Oswy> But by "logout" does that mean just the program, or entirely?
[07:34] <Dr_Willis> Oswy when you addyourself to a group. you need to totally logout.
[07:34] <Wikzo> Think the program, but not sure
[07:34] <Oswy> k, thanks.
[07:34] <[Trash] > Heya, sorry to barge in on you guys.. But can anyone reccomend a multi Server Irc Client for Fiesty(IE - one that lets me to connect to more than one IRC network at a time)?

[07:35] <kkerwin> Dr_Willis: Eh?
[07:35] <kkathman> Kwanun:  ok, so you download that, where do you tell the system to use it?
[07:35] <Dr_Willis> kkerwin the login screen is 'gdm'  - there are dozens of gdm themed you can get.
[07:35] <Nevermind> When you got Kubuntu and Ubuntu installed at sametime, can you switch between them other than the deault one you set
[07:35] <Kwanun> just get the gdm file and install it
[07:35] <Dr_Willis> Nevermind the login screen has a menu to pick which one to use.
[07:35] <kkerwin> Dr_Willis: Oh, I think you meant the last at kkathman.
[07:35] <Kwanun> once install you will have the login screen
[07:36] <Dr_Willis> kkerwin proberly. :)
[07:36] <Nevermind> ahhhhh
[07:36] <Nevermind> cheers

[07:48] <CyD> Henryenr, the package must be named something else
[07:48] <gnomefreak> Henryenr: -server isnt in repos
[07:48] <gnomefreak> its -player that is in repos
[07:49] <Dr_Willis> I thought the server was in the comercial repos?
[07:49] <Dr_Willis> !vmware-server
[07:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vmware-server - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:49] <gnomefreak> Dr_Willis: it might be
[07:49] <blockabey> Every time I try to move anything to File System I get an error message that says I don't have permission to write there
[07:49] <Henryenr> dang.. now i have to use  automatix to install it?
[07:49] <Dr_Willis> somne how i installed it with the package manager.
[07:49] <Dr_Willis> Henryenr NO you DONT ..
[07:49] <gnomefreak> Henryenr: no you dont and i wouldnt do that
[07:49] <Henryenr> ok.. what should i do
[07:49] <Dr_Willis> !find vmware-server
[07:49] <ubotu> Found: vmware-server-kernel-modules-2.6.20-15, vmware-server-kernel-modules-2.6.20-16, vmware-server-kernel-modules
[07:49] <jetscreamer> blockabey: put it under /home/you
[07:49] <gnomefreak> Dr_Willis: notice no package though
[07:49] <Henryenr> i tried installing it using  tar.gz   but didnt work earlier.. now this a new fresh install of ubuntu
[07:49] <CyD> blockabey, keep things in your home directory, unless you have some higher purpose here..
[07:49] <Dr_Willis> Henryenr its in some of the repos somewhere.. Ive isntalled it with apt-get install vmware-server befor.
[07:50] <Dr_Willis> now which.. i dont rember. :)
[07:50] <Henryenr> dr_willis,  can i get copy of your   sources.list

[07:50] <gnomefreak> see :)
[07:50] <Dr_Willis> would be my guess also.

[07:54] <BHSPitMonkey> the documentation for this realtek wifi card (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/RTL8180L) discusses using ndiswrapper, but the realtek driver page for the card actually has a linux driver there.  Is there a reason the documentation doesn't acknowledge it?
[07:54] <linuxftw> Anybody know what I should do about my install problem? is it somthing to do with mount point '/' ?

[10:07] (swarm/#ubuntu) greg2, i can't help you, but maybe i can point you in the right direction: www.ubuntuforums.org
[10:07] (gusto5/#ubuntu) when untarring, what do the xvzf stand for?
[10:07] (greg2/#ubuntu) i want to setup a LAMP on ubuntu desktop, but i do it, and php doesn't work
[10:07] (Dr_Willis/#ubuntu) Sergemine gnome and kde both should be useable.. -  if you really get tight for cpu/memory - you could set up fluxbox, or use xfce for a very light desktop.
[10:07] (jacob/#ubuntu) with the newest ubuntu how much of a struggle is it to do a clean install.   how hard will it be to reinstall the driver and get every thing working again
[10:08] (jon_/#ubuntu) can someone help me out a little with ndiswrapper
[10:08] (swarm/#ubuntu) they have countless tutorials on it
[10:08] (Augustus_Kolya/#ubuntu) GNOME is clean, functional, and well thought out
[10:08] (preaction_/#ubuntu) gusto5, eXtract, Verbose, Zipped, Filename. read man tar
[10:08] (Dr_Willis/#ubuntu) gusto5 try man tar. :) x = extract  f = file v = verbose
[10:08] (livingdaylight/#ubuntu) Augustus_Kolya, since we had those fun encounters over at '#pclinux i thought of you
[10:08] (swarm/#ubuntu) jon_, i'm looking for the same help. :)
[10:08] (Augustus_Kolya/#ubuntu) kde just has a lot of k's
[10:08] (jacob/#ubuntu) i agree
[10:08] (greg2/#ubuntu) i tried the tutorials, but they don't seem to work
[10:08] (lillian_/#ubuntu) but the bigger proplem is i wanted to talk to my sis in irland with my webcam and it only works with windows i think
[10:08] (swarm/#ubuntu) jon_, , what card you using?
[10:08] <lillian_> can you fix that too
[10:08] <jon_> im trying to sudo dpkg -i ndiswrapper-common_*.deb but i get no such file or directory

[10:09] <swarm> hmm
[10:09] <Augustus_Kolya> I like Beagle too much
[10:09] <[nrx] > uhhh.. you'll need to install pidgin for that :x
[10:09] <Augustus_Kolya> toever switch
[10:09] <Augustus_Kolya> :P
[10:09] <jon_> im in the /usr/share/doc and i see the file with ls
[10:09] <jon_> is this the correct file?
[10:09] <Augustus_Kolya> Beagle should be default in Ubuntu
[10:09] <jon_> i dl the packages from synaptic
[10:09] <[nrx] > afk - brb
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 you might want to clarify a bit as to what you are doing not just spout off error messages.
[10:09] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, qt code looks a lot more efficient... gtk code doesn't look very good... looks great on the outside though:p
[10:09] <axz> guys cant i just install xchat on ubuntu for 64bit?
[10:09] <lokki> Kopfgeldjaeger: Is there vlc flag for this ?
[10:09] <Reaper> who me nrx?
[10:09] <axz> because i installed gnome xchat
[10:09] <Augustus_Kolya> GNOME is plenty efficient
[10:09] <axz> well
[10:10] <meoblast001> Dr_Willis: i ran "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 -t vfat /mnt"
[10:10] <axz> cant change athing
[10:10] <Augustus_Kolya> if anything is wrong with Ubuntu, it's too darn many default services
[10:10] <ibara_> yeah, just install normal xchat
[10:10] <meoblast001> Dr_Willis: then "sudo chmod -R 777 /mnt"
[10:10] <jon_> can someone help me out?
[10:10] <Reaper> !ask
[10:10] <hb> axz unless you NEED a x86_64 system I would stay away from it.  there's very little support for it :(
[10:10] <meoblast001> Dr_Willis: and now im trying to copy music to /mnt/MUSIC
[10:10] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 you DONT chmod windows mountpoints that way. You need to use the umask=0002 or other options
[10:10] <Augustus_Kolya> axz: that is FUD
[10:10] <jon_> im trying to sudo dpkg -i ndiswrapper-common_*.deb but i get no such file or directory
[10:10] <Reaper> how do i check cd integrity?
[10:11] <Augustus_Kolya> hb: I've used 64-bit for ages
[10:11] <Augustus_Kolya> it's a lot better
[10:11] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, i agree that kde looks klunky but technically he says its superior... i wonder if it is true
[10:11] <Augustus_Kolya> just set up the libs
[10:11] <axz> Augustus_Kolya: is is possible to change user list or other things?
[10:11] <Augustus_Kolya> and you're all set
[10:11] <jon_> where do i find the package?
[10:11] <Dr_Willis> untill theres a problem.. :)
[10:11] <hb> ok, install flash on a 64bit system without hacks and i'll believe you.
[10:11] <Augustus_Kolya> axz: you mean add users
[10:11] <Augustus_Kolya> ?
[10:11] <axz> no change userlist
[10:11] <meoblast001> Dr_Willis: any idea?
[10:11] <OiPenguin> I'm trying to install Ubuntu, however my CD-player fails. XP is installed. Can I place the Ubuntu image on the XP desktop and use that to install? How do I do it? If it ain't possible, is there any other solution? Network install?
[10:11] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 mount it properly with the umask option like ive been saying.
[10:11] <ibara_> axz, just go ahead and install normal xchat
[10:11] <Augustus_Kolya> hb: thats not Ubuntu's fault, nspluginwrapper works fine
[10:11] <velko> Reaper, you have to compute the md5sum of the downloaded image and compare it to the one on the website you downloaded that image from (before burning the disc on cd)
[10:11] <shouji> hb: flash player? i did it
[10:12] <ibara_> you can configure it better
[10:12] <axz> like i cant change topic of the channel or do any thing..... thats why need full xchat gnome version is kinda wierd
[10:12] <Tech-Mike> i got flash on amd64 :-P
[10:12] <meoblast001> Dr_Willis: can you type the string out? i dont know what umask is
[10:12] <Augustus_Kolya> hb: and if Adobe would open source or comple for 64-bit it would work dandy
[10:12] <ibara_> axz, sudo apt-get install xchat
[10:12] <hb> as I said, without hacks and i'll believe you.
[10:12] <axz> 64bit version roxs only some problem with installing 32bit apps hb
[10:12] <Augustus_Kolya> axz: like what probs?
[10:12] <Augustus_Kolya> 32-bit libs work great
[10:13] <shouji> I didn't had any problems with x64 at any time
[10:13] <disinterested> being as of how no stations will load into exaile that something has happened?
[10:13] <bstock> anyone know any app to read .pdb ebook files?
[10:13] <Augustus_Kolya> I would never go back to 32-bit
[10:13] <Augustus_Kolya> period
[10:13] <meoblast001> Dr_Willis: there is no umask option
[10:13] <axz> well like xchat
[10:13] <axz> but thanks ibara_

[10:14] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 thers 10000's of optiuons.. :) you just havent read about them ..
[10:14] <Sergemine> Dr_Willis, what would be the prefered apps for XFCE? It is GTK based, right? Firefox grows very big when using it, is it the same with konqueror? My guess was that Konqueror+Kopete+KWord would load less libraries into memory since they are all KDE apps, while Firefox (Gecko) + Pidgin (GTK) + Abiword (don't know) may be taking more memory for libraries to go with them. AM I THNIKING RIGHT ???
[10:14] <meoblast001> where can i read about them
[10:14] <__ZiGgy__> virtualbox  or  VMware
[10:14] <Augustus_Kolya> ziggy: tried WINE?
[10:14] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows -t ntfs -r -o umask=0222, for example is   what i often use
[10:14] <meoblast001> and i dont have time for 10000 options
[10:15] <LOWLUX> what jumper setting do i put my IDE hard drive on for it to be seen in the bios??????????????
[10:15] <shouji> __ZigGy__: I use virtualbox, just works fine
[10:15] <__ZiGgy__> ok so witch one is the best to choose from
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 this is documented all over the  place. Use umask=0002
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> or 0000
[10:15] <neverblue> oh wow, you have many ! marks, I want to assist you :)
[10:15] <__ZiGgy__> alright i'm looking for the one thats easyest to install and run

[10:16] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, the point of the articel is not to create a typical religious kde vs gnome flame war, but talking about the difficulty from a develpers point of view with so many diferent DE's and the impact it has on Linux as a whole in captureing a largeer market share... I've long felt that Linux needs to consolidate its resources and have more standardization or at least integration to be more appealing to deve

[10:16] <ompaul> LOWLUX, best thing is not to repeat, and you want master and slave per ide cable
[10:17] <Dr_Willis> LOWLUX i always just set the jumpers to cable select.

[10:17] <steve_j> hi all
[10:18] <jon_> can i get a little help with ndiswrapper? im following a tutorial but im running into a few issues
[10:18] <Augustus_Kolya> for the most part, the UNIX design philosophy shows us that if you do something right the first time, you never have to go back and re-do it
[10:18] <Dazgar1> hi
[10:18] <swarm> ompaul, I have gone through a ton of those tutorials. None of them have worked - the hardware just never shows up.
[10:18] <LOWLUX> what jumper setting do i put my IDE hard drive on for it to be seen in the bios??????????????
[10:18] <steve_j> if i want to create a user to basically run svnserve and touch nothing else, how do i limit his powers? i've added a user via adduser and chowned the svn repos to that user's name
[10:18] <Dazgar1> how can i disable Xl in ubuntu please (7.10)
[10:18] <meoblast001> Dr_Willis: i still dont have permission
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001  you have been unmounting the drive not just remounting it?
[10:18] <craazy> ive been an ubuntu user for a while, i tried switching to suse, but ubuntu is just the fuckin best
[10:19] <meoblast001> Dr_Willis: unmounting.. yes
[10:19] <jon_> im having issues with the fesity packages for ndiswrapper
[10:19] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, did you read the article?
[10:19] <meoblast001> Dr_Willis: is that wrong
[10:19] <jon_> can someone help me get them working?
[10:19] <Augustus_Kolya> no, haven't yet
[10:19] <djs_2_6> LOWLUX - Already answered.  Read this - http://www.helpwithpcs.com/upgrading/install-hard-drive.htm
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows -t vfat   umask=0002          Should work.
[10:19] <velko> steve_j, the powers of this user depend on the groups it belongs to. per default only "users"
[10:19] <Sergemine> What takes less memory and CPU: 1. Konqueror + Kopete + KWord @ KDE,         or       2. Firefox + Pidgin + Abiword @ XFCE     ??? !!!
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 or failing that . you could set the uid/gid also and let it get mounted/owned by a specific user.
[10:19] <swarm> Augustus_Kolya, the problem with that is that it always gives error 404 - it's a broken package or something.
[10:19] <muki> can somean pls help me to instal the Intel 915GM video driver for my laptop?

[10:20] <meoblast001> Dr_Willis: how do u do that?
[10:20] <Mattw> how do i save out of a file that i sudo nano into?
[10:20] <christoffernors> Hi where can i remodify the shortcuts alt+left/right/up/down... You know... Go back/forward/up/down.....
[10:20] <steve_j> velko: how can i slap svnuser back down to being a mere user?
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 do what? set the uid= and  just like ya set the umask option.
[10:20] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, really? i think he makes real and valid arguements
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> a users uid.. is found by.. Hmm.. echo $UID (i think)
[10:20] <velko> steve_j, really? take a look to /etc/groups

[10:21] <Augustus_Kolya> oh hell no
[10:21] <Augustus_Kolya> not Automatix

[10:22] <Augustus_Kolya> Automatix is a great idea, but it's implemented in a way that WILL bork your OS
[10:22] <Dazgar1> muki: what to do ?
[10:22] <Augustus_Kolya> if not now, eventually
[10:22] <Dr_Willis> Augustus_Kolya some would argue that its not even that great and idea. :)

[10:22] <Dazgar1> how to disable xgl in ubunto 7.10 plz ?

[10:23] <Dazgar1> what do you want to do ?
[10:23] <ompaul> !automatix
[10:23] <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)

[10:23] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 you just need to learn the fundamentals I guess. you are doing somthing trivially wrong.
[10:23] <Augustus_Kolya> livingdaylight: It says Linux has 0.77% of the desktop, but estimates from 2004, before Ubuntu even really had legs, had it at closer to 3%
[10:23] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 or overlooking somthing.
[10:23] <craazy> Sergemine: firefox is a full featured web browser
[10:23] <Augustus_Kolya> Linux is at least even with Mac OS, if not slightly past

[10:25] <Augustus_Kolya> If 0.77% of PC users use Linux, that means the other 99.23% need to have their head removed from their intestinal tract

[10:25] <Sergemine> craary magnetro velko, could you please compare Epiphany to Firefox and Konqueror in functionality and eas of use . Please
[10:25] <zoneman53> I've been using Ubuntu for about two weeks and love it
[10:25] <Dazgar1> muki: you'll sure have a compilation step
[10:25] <Augustus_Kolya> Sergemine: I usually recommend Firefox first, Opera next
[10:26] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, the point is that the market share is not as great as it could be from a potential point of view if there was more of a cohesive front... He is talking from a developers point of view ... the necessity for standardization... gnome only came about as a reaction to kde's issues.. but once it joined gpl there was no longer reason for it to exist... now developers have a choice between too many DE's
[10:26] <__ZiGgy__> virtualbox_1.5.0-24069-1_Ubuntu_feisty_i386.deb is this correct
[10:26] <craazy> Sergemine" there is a reallly good comaprison
[10:26] <velko> Sergemine, it's as easy as ff. but has not so much plugins (i really miss some of them). it's a great browser
[10:26] <DigeratiX> set up sons pc, edubuntu, put a hp17 flat with it for a monitor and it will not show the edubuntu splash on startup and shutdown and no screensavers, all say out of sync and stuff, leftyfb what do I need to look at to change this behavior, the monitor would bark about being or needing to be 1280x1024 at 60hz and its fine once it gets to the login
[10:26] <craazy> if you google it
[10:26] <DigeratiX> there its set to 1280x1024/60
[10:26] <Geoffrey2> muki, I assume there's a reason you can't just use the intel drivers built into Ubuntu?
[10:26] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, and i wonder if LInux as a greater whole doesn't suffer for this in one way or another
[10:26] <Augustus_Kolya> livingdaylight: The average PC user has Windows, already set up and running, from the OEM, and if the OS can't wipe their butt for them
[10:26] <Augustus_Kolya> then they are stumped
[10:26] <muki> no i cant
[10:26] <Dazgar1> muki: don't you already have this along with ubuntu ?
[10:27] <swarm> ompaul, I spent all day yesterday reading that page. If it tells me how to deal with my card, I missed it. I read that page multiple times yesterday trying to figure out this card. I am not a newbie who comes here and asks and expects things to be handed to me on a silver platter without RTFMing first. I have been at this for about a week on my own, forums, wikis, man pages, etc... i'm lost. It has to be something simple, but I can't figure it

[10:27] <muki> my resolyiun is 1280x800 but ubuntu gives me one choice> 1024x768
[10:27] <Dr_Willis> meoblast001 This uses options (-o user,rw,exec,umask=000) to give absolutely everybody all the permission to all files on your DOS /dev/hda1 partition (you should ask yourself if this is really safe
[10:27] <OiPenguin> I'm trying to install Ubuntu, however my CD-player fails. XP is installed. Can I place the Ubuntu image on the XP desktop and use that to install? How do I do it? If it ain't possible, is there any other solution? Network install?
[10:27] <Jowi> DigeratiX, set the correct framebuffer resolution
[10:27] <Matthew_> how do i setup ssh?
[10:27] <kane77> anybody here uses gnash? I wonder how far did it get since I last tried it.. can it play video now?

[10:27] <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/

[10:28] <Augustus_Kolya> WUBI is evil!!!!
[10:28] <Geoffrey2> muki, did you install 915resolution?
[10:28] <Augustus_Kolya> it's slow and broken
[10:28] <zoneman53> Why??
[10:28] <__ZiGgy__> virtualbox_1.5.0-24069-1_Ubuntu_feisty_i386.deb ?????????????? is this the right one to get
[10:28] <Dr_Willis> Augustus_Kolya it actually worked for ya eh? :)
[10:29] <Dazgar1> muki: you'll have to install the kernel headers and compile the driver you've got from intel
[10:29] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, Linux does seem fragmented... united we stand divided we fall ...
[10:29] <Augustus_Kolya> try updating HAL Daemon on Wubi
[10:29] <__ZiGgy__> and if soo how do i install it ????
[10:29] <dhq> i have a mouse problem everything works well only its appearance is bad i mean i can see 3 mouse cursors together
[10:29] <Dr_Willis> Linux is not fragmented.. its flexiable. :)
[10:29] <zoneman53> I have it on another machine and it works ggood for me
[10:29] <Augustus_Kolya> and disk access speed is half what it is in a real Ubuntu install

[10:29] <zoneman53> Oh

[10:30] <Augustus_Kolya> he links to Amazon's top software 100's list to "prove" that nobody uses Linux
[10:31] <Geoffrey2> muki, either use apt-get from the command line, or go into the Synaptic Package manager
[10:31] <Augustus_Kolya> like it's gonna show up on Amazon when you order an Ubuntu disc from CANONICAL
[10:31] <kyoletta> irc.tin.it

[10:31] <muki> ok i'll try it
[10:31] <rathel> I've got a question, how come my mouse scroll-wheel is really sensitive if it's plugged in while ubuntu is booting? It's not so sensitive until I wait after ubuntu boots to plug it in.
[10:32] <feca> hi
[10:32] <Jowi> !915resolution | muki
[10:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 915resolution - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[10:32] <zoneman53> Pengiun I don't think so
[10:32] <Dr_Willis> OiPenguin No i dont think it can
[10:32] <zoneman53> It acts as a dual boot system
[10:32] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, scroll down to the example between the difference in code between qt and gtk to create a button that says 'hello world' and quits qhen you click on it... gtk code is 100%more efficient... I'm not a programmer but i know which one i would prefer to use ...

[10:33] <Sergemine> velco craazy Jowi and everyone THANK YOU GUYS A LOT ! One last question: Would I get more functionality with KDE + Konqueror + Kopete + KWord ??? Any chance for that ?
[10:33] <Geoffrey2> now, my question....I'm trying to set up Firefox so it can properly handle pdf files...so far I'm having zero luck, anyone willing to help me with it?
[10:33] <sergevn> rathel: Physicly or in your xserver?
[10:33] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, you're not focussing on the real issue... what the exact market share is of linux is not the point...
[10:33] <OiPenguin> What would than be my best option to achieve a pure Ubuntu system with a faulty CD-drive?
[10:33] <FusionMan> net install.
[10:33] <rathel> Sergemine, In xserver.
[10:33] <rathel> oops
[10:34] <Augustus_Kolya> livingdaylight: I'm sure that Miguel De Icaza is not going to force Ubuntu to bundle Silverlight, or enter a Microsoft backstab Linux deal
[10:34] <swarm> ompaul, I have followed the first link in there, but the hardware just "doesn't show up" - the second link is dead.
[10:34] <Dr_Willis> OiPenguin borrow someone elses cd drive.
[10:34] <rathel> sergevn in xserver.
[10:34] <feca> hello
[10:34] <Augustus_Kolya> I'm sure Ubuntu would switch to KDE before that happened
[10:34] <zoneman53> penguin the thing about WUBI is that it enables you to run Ubuntu on a FAT32 or NTFS partition
[10:34] <Geoffrey2> OiPenguin, um, if possible, a new CD drive?
[10:34] <Jack_Sparrow> OiPenguin: You probably could save your /home install to the drive and copy home over
[10:34] <FusionMan> FAT32 is supposed to be highly compatible
[10:34] <swarm> I have also tried the second post in that link, to no avail
[10:34] <Jack_Sparrow> wubi is a bad idea
[10:35] <Augustus_Kolya> this guy is like FUD central, trying to smear GNOME
[10:35] <swarm> ndiswrapper is installed - just the hardware doesn't show up.

[10:35] <ubotu> Augustus_Kolya: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:35] <Jowi> Sergemine, of course you would. but for a lighter system (less than 256-512MB ram and 1Ghz CPU) abiword is ok, firefox is ok, more alternatives here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems
[10:35] <sergevn> rathel: Ah ok, maybe because the user defined settings arent loaded yet (delay). Also having that with my pointer icons
[10:35] <Matthew_> alright i have a problem, i have ubuntu 7.0.4 setup and its got ssh installed, it has apache installed, and i cant connect to it, i have it setup with a dynamic ip also, it times out during a ping of its ip, but it can connect to the internet from the actual terminal and it pinged google and installed ssh fine over the net
[10:35] <OiPenguin> Thanks for suggestions. I'd like to try other options before replacing/borrowing a cd drive. Could you please refer to some step by step guides. I'm a non experienced linux users.
[10:35] <swarm> ompaul, i appreciate your help, but it doesn't seem you have specific experience with this card. thanks anyhow! :)
[10:36] <FusionMan> Question regarding secondary hard drive:  It is formatted ext3 and will mount in the Storage Device Manager (fstab gui) but still does not show up in computer.  Any suggestions?
[10:36] <livingdaylight> Augustus_Kolya, don't you think it would be great if as a developer you created something that could be used across the board? although choice is great ... sometimes we have to choose to say less is more... what i him argue is that standardization would be good for Linux on the whole
[10:36] <mindframe-> Matthew_, is therea firewall enabled?
[10:36] <SM_Barbie> Hi. I need to autostart a xmodmap. I normally do this in .xinitrc, will this work in Feisty Fawn?
[10:36] <OiPenguin> I do have Ubuntu installed on another machine. Is a network install simple or challenging?
[10:36] <Augustus_Kolya> livingdaylight: #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:36] <rathel> sergevn, Ah okay, just wondered why it does that, It works fine after I unplug it than plug it back in.
[10:36] <Jack_Sparrow> OiPenguin: Standard cd install is the easiest
[10:36] <Dr_Willis> OiPenguin not too hard i hear.
[10:36] <Jowi> anyone know where the 915resolution page has gone to?
[10:36] <Matthew_> mindframe- on the ubuntu?
[10:37] <Sergemine> Jowi, That's GREAT! Thank you!
[10:37] <FusionMan> noone in the know about Secondary harddrive installation?
[10:37] <mindframe-> Matthew_, yes
[10:37] <BernieMac> my ubuntu freezes on reboot if I have my wireless card on(laptop). If I turn it on after reboot or shut the card off before reboot I have no problems. Suggestions?
[10:37] <zoneman53> Penquin: download thwe WUBI.exe and run it on windows.. It will download the Ubuntu install to your hard rive and then set up the whole install for you. Its rweally easy
[10:37] <Jowi> muki, ah, here it is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:37] <sergevn> rathel: Oh you have to plug it out and in to get rid of the sensitivety?
[10:37] <Matthew_> i dont know, i downloaded the server 7.0.4 cd and installed it all i have added is ssh
[10:37] <OiPenguin> Is it possible to use the image stored on the XP desktop to install and replace Ubuntu?
[10:38] <rathel> sergevn, Yeah to make it normal.
[10:38] <Dr_Willis> FusionMan for my storage drives. i make each users a direcotry on them, and chown it to be owned by them. THEN i link that dir to their /home/user/ExtraStorage  location
[10:38] <jrib> SM_Barbie: maybe (why not try and see?), but I know ~/.xprofile should work, or ~/.gnomerc if you use gnome.  Even better, if you use ~/.Xmodmap, gnome should automatically detect it and run it
[10:38] <SM_Barbie> jrib: thank you
[10:38] <zoneman53> Penquin when your computer reboots you will have the option to run windows or run Ubuntu
[10:38] <sergevn> OiPenguin: You could first use Vmware to try ubuntu if that is what you mean
[10:38] <FusionMan> Dr_Willis: It will not even access my harddrive to what I can see.  It claims to mount it, but there's no visual representation of this in terms of a file browser.
[10:38] <Jowi> Sergemine, you're welcome. for file manager i use Thunar myself but pcmanfm is similar but lighter still.
[10:38] <OiPenguin> zoneman53: I got the impression that would result in an eternal dual boot. I'd like Ubuntu to replace XP.
[10:39] <Dr_Willis> FusionMan use the shell, try tghe mount command.
[10:39] <Jowi> Sergemine, oh and Rox-Filer is also pretty good on low mem systems
[10:39] <zoneman53> Penquin no I don't think so
[10:39] <sergevn> rathel: Hmm driver bug, also having that sometimes with other devices on Windows and Ubuntu machines.
[10:39] <Jack_Sparrow> zoneman53: wubi isnt great and can really mess up a system
[10:39] <sergevn> rathel: like usb Ethernet adapters.
[10:40] <rathel> sergevn, ah okay thanks for the info.
[10:40] <jon_> i cannot get ndiswrapper -i net5211.inf to work
[10:40] <OiPenguin> Messing up my system is ok. I want XP out and Ubuntu in.
[10:40] <boojah_> what is the channel for those who are testing gutsy?

[10:40] <alecw1> I have a math teacher who is requiring me to get a "graphing calculator). I really can't afford one, but I do have a laptop. Is there a good linux app for this?
[10:40] <sergevn> rathel: np mate
[10:40] <alecw1> To mimic a graphing calculator
[10:40] <FusionMan> Dr_Willis: In the console, it claims to be mounted, this is true as my StorageDeviceManager has mounted it.  But I still have no way to access it.
[10:40] <jon_> alecw1 what math class is it
[10:40] <alecw1> algebra II
[10:41] <DigeratiX> Jowi : mine has  ro quiet splash so if I want it to be right, would I make it  ro vga=795 quiet splash
[10:41] <jon_> you can find cheap graphing calculators on ebahy
[10:41] <Jack_Sparrow> zoneman53: works for me is fine... but dont froget to mention the dangers when promoting smomething
[10:41] <jon_> look for a ti83
[10:41] <alecw1> jon_: algebra II
[10:41] <zoneman53> Penquin then you only other option is get a cd drive that works and do a standard install
[10:42] <khamael> alecw1: the gnome calculator can be set to mre complex functions
[10:42] <jon_> alecw1 do you not need the calculator for in class?
[10:42] <BernieMac> alecw1: you are probably better off just buying one. You may want to use it in class(tests, quizzes) or for a future math class
[10:42] <zoneman53> Tyour right jack
[10:42] <boojah_> anyone know if there's a version for emerald-themes out for gutsy?
[10:42] <jon_> can someone tell me why i cannot get ndiswrapper to work?
[10:42] <Jack_Sparrow> zoneman53: not trying to stir anything up..  Your doing good
[10:42] <zoneman53> youYou're right Jack
[10:43] <zoneman53> No problem
[10:43] <jon_> will the synaptic packages work for common and utils?
[10:43] <Jowi> DigeratiX, if your video card support it, yes. you can try this resolution without making a permanent change to the system. have a look a bit further up the page "Temporary disable framebuffer in GRUB boot menu" but replace vga=normal with your value.
[10:43] <zoneman53> You guys have more experience with Ubuntu tha I do
[10:43] <FusionMan> How do you log in as a true root super user in Ubuntu?
[10:43] <Jack_Sparrow> !root
[10:43] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[10:43] <DigeratiX> ok
[10:43] <Jowi> DigeratiX, if that works, add it permanently to your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:43] <joebob777as7> what kernel does 6.06 have?
[10:44] <DigeratiX> gotcha
[10:44] <DigeratiX> will do, thanks
[10:44] <velko> FusionMan, sudo su
[10:44] <zoneman53> I'm an advanced windowAnd I can't type too ggog!!!
[10:44] <jon_> it looks like ill never have wireless
[10:44] <Jowi> DigeratiX, most vid cards support mode 791 in framebuffer mode.
[10:44] <Matthew_> how do i stop my ubuntu machine from pinging
[10:44] <joebob777as7> what kernel does 6.06 have?
[10:45] <Jack_Sparrow> jon_: What card do you have.. and what have you tried so far to get it working
[10:45] <Dr_Willis> Matthew_ you mean stop it from replying to ping requests?
[10:45] <Jowi> Matthew_, pinging ? what is your machine pinging?
[10:45] <boojah_> Matthew: stop it from pinging??
[10:45] <ianm_> Matthew_: responding to pings?
[10:45] <peniwize> Can someone tell me how to set the popup window text and/or background color?  I changed my theme colors so that mt normal text is white and my backgrounds are darker, but now the tooltips/popups have white text on light yellow and I can't read them.
[10:45] <Matthew_> no it is pinging google.com
[10:45] <Matthew_> and it wont stop
[10:45] <Matthew_> what is the command to make it stop
[10:45] <Matthew_> ?
[10:45] <Ray_at_UW> My resolution is terrible, I can only get 640x480, any suggestions on how to fix this? The screen resolution only gives me one option of 640x480
[10:45] <Jowi> Matthew_, ctrl-c
[10:46] <Matthew_> kk
[10:46] <ianm_> Matthew_: or close the terminal window ...
[10:46] <Dr_Willis> reboot! :)
[10:46] <boojah_> matthew: ctrl+z
[10:46] <Jowi> Matthew_, "ping -c 5 google.com" will ping goolgle 5 times.

[10:46] <Doitle> Where do programs installed into wine go?
[10:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Ray_at_UW: post your xorg.conf to the pastebin  and tell us the make and model of your video card and monitor
[10:46] <Jowi> google. bah :)
[10:46] <Ray_at_UW> Okay.
[10:46] <boojah_> matthew: dont know if this is in linux, but ctrl+shift+f6
[10:47] <Ray_at_UW> Where is my xorg.conf?
[10:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Doitle: something like .wine/Drive_C
[10:47] <Jowi> Doitle, /home/user/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/
[10:47] <boojah_> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Ray_at_UW: gedit  /etc/X11/xorg.conf     from terminal
[10:47] <jon_> Jack_Sparrow: atheros ar5007eg. i followed this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper   after i got the packages from synaptic, i tried to sudo dpkg -i ndiswrapper-common_*.deb
[10:47] <sergevn> Jack_Sparrow: not as root?
[10:48] <Doitle> I don't appear to have a .wine folder
[10:48] <Doitle> in my home
[10:48] <Jack_Sparrow> sergevn: Not as root yet... just want to read it and paste it
[10:48] <boojah_> Doitle: wineprefixcreate i think
[10:48] <boojah_> Doitle: or winecreateprefix
[10:48] <sergevn> Jack_Sparrow: Ah ok srry, missed a line there. ;)
[10:48] <Jowi> Doitle, "cd $HOME/.wine"
[10:49] <Jack_Sparrow> sergevn: np... will go gksudo gedit if and when we need to root him up
[10:49] <Skrypt> What's the package required to get K3b to burn mp3s?
[10:49] <OiPenguin> I may have found the appropriate solution: http://lubi.sourceforge.net/unetbootin.html Does anyone have any experience with this program?
[10:49] <Jowi> Doitle, I hope you didn't run wine with sudo. if you did it is probably in /root/.wine/
[10:49] <Doitle> no I didnt
[10:49] <joebob777as7> what kernel does 6.06 have?
[10:50] <Jack_Sparrow> skyion: I saw it using synaptic  searching all k3b
[10:50] <Doitle> I just went wine gp5.exe
[10:50] <Doitle> and it installed and I can't find the program nor any shortcut to it
[10:50] <sergevn> Never-ever run an app as root if you can run it as user by default. :)
[10:50] <jon_> Jack_Sparrow when i try sudo dpkg -i ndiswrapper-common_*.deb, i get no such file or directory
[10:50] <Jowi> Doitle, ok. type "winecfg" and see where the path to C: drive is set to-
[10:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Ray_at_UW: Still there... DO you know how to use the pastebin ?
[10:51] <Doitle> Looks like it went to my c drive...
[10:51] <Jowi> Doitle, this is a topic for #winehq but I can try to help a little bit at least :)

[10:51] <gnubuntu> anyone have  Pidgin
[10:51] <gnubuntu> 2.2.0 for ubuntu feisty installed?
[10:51] <dcroxton> Could I have some help with a microphone issue, pretty please? :)
[10:51] <Jowi> !ask | gnubuntu
[10:51] <ubotu> gnubuntu: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:52] <boojah_> jon_: what wifi card do you have?
[10:52] <Matthew_> anyone know how to install webmin?
[10:52] <P3nnywise> when i insert the dics with latest ubuntu version on it i get this msg:  /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[10:52] <jon_> boojah_atheros ar5007eg
[10:52] <pike_> gnubuntu: ln -s /usr/bin/gaim /usr/bin/pidgin
[10:52] <Jowi> dcroxton, gnubuntu : be specific with your questions and you have a higher chance of getting help
[10:52] <gnubuntu> oh i am a noob here
[10:53] <Doitle> Jovi what exactly am I looking for when I get into the winecfg?
[10:53] <Matthew_> anyone know the command to install webmin?
[10:53] <zoneman53> Penquin : I sdon't know but sounds like its doing the same thing as WUBI
[10:53] <Doitle> The path just says ../drive_c
[10:53] <boojah_> jon_: ok.. just chacking.. had some serious problems getting my wifi card up.. ultimatly i had to upgrade to gutsy
[10:53] <dcroxton> I haven't tried irc help yet -- I didn't want to go into too much detail before someone responded, but I'll try.
[10:53] <Jowi> gnubuntu, no need to apologise. the more details you give of the problem and what you have tried to do yourself to resolve it the better it is.
[10:53] <shooters> Matthew_: did you download the deb packages?
[10:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Doitle: you need to ask in #Winehq ....
[10:53] <Matthew_> i was told there is an apt-get method?
[10:53] <joebob777as7> what kernel does 6.06 have?
[10:54] <shooters> Matthew_: doesn't seem to be in the official repos, let me double check
[10:54] <gnubuntu> @jowi ok i don't ask again like that
[10:54] <jon_> boojah_ do you know what i can try to fix my problem?
[10:55] <Jowi> Doitle, "C: ../drive_c" usually means /home/username/.wine/drive_c/
[10:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Matthew_: apt-get install xxx
[10:55] <Doitle> There's no such thing as a hidden folder in linux is there?
[10:55] <dcroxton> The microphone stopped working in the last few weeks.  I was trying to use Gizmo.  I've checked the alsaconf settings and nothing seems wrong.  I've reinstalled the alsa libs.  I tried installing the latest alsa drivers, but I got errors when doing ./configure.
[10:55] <dcroxton> I don't know what else to try.
[10:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Doitle:    ./no
[10:56] <Matthew_> Jack_Sparrow: sudo apt-get install webmin?
[10:56] <shooters> Matthew_: it's not in the repos.. So apt-get wouldn't be able to install it..., but
[10:56] <Jowi> gnubuntu, :)
[10:56] <boojah_> jon_ i was unsuccessful in both ndiswrapper and the iwlwifi driver.. but i found out the the iwlwifi is built in the new kernel that comes in gutsy.. it might be true for you to
[10:56] <joebob777as7> what kernel does 6.06 have?
[10:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Matthew_: that should get it
[10:56] <boojah_> jon_ its working great now :P
[10:56] <Matthew_> jack_sparrow: that doesent work
[10:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Matthew_: Im tired here.. try it without sudo first
[10:56] <shooters> Matthew_: type "wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.360_all.deb" then "sudo dpkg --install webmin_1.360_all.deb"
[10:56] <Sajes> is there a way to switch between Gnome and KDE?
[10:56] <jon_> iw|wifi?
[10:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Matthew_: Use synaptic
[10:57] <Gizmo_the_Great> Hi. I have a folder that I have am trying to share using Samba. I have 'enabled sharing' of the folder. I have enabled my samba user account and set the samba password for my user account using smbpasswd. Every time I try to connect from another machine though it says 'Unable to connect to X Y Z. Permission is denied'. Any ideas?
[10:57] <shooters> Jack_Sparrow: webmin is NOT in the official repos
[10:57] <jrib> Sajes: after installing both, click on "options" and go to session at the login screen
[10:57] <boojah_> jon_ is your wifi an intel?
[10:57] <Jack_Sparrow> shooters: thanks.. thought he already did that
[10:57] <Jowi> Sajes, yes. do you have both installed or just one and want to install the other?
[10:57] <jrib> joebob777as7: go to packages.ubuntu.com and search for the kernel package, should be able to figure out then
[10:57] <jon_> negative
[10:57] <Sajes> Jowi, I have just Gnome installed. How do I install KDE?
[10:57] <jon_> atheros
[10:58] <joebob777as7> just making sure people in this channel are still no help.
[10:58] <rathel> Sajes, sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[10:58] <Sajes> jrib, or I could turn off gnome with "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" and "sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start" couldn't I?
[10:58] <Sajes> rathel, thanks.
[10:58] <boojah_> jon_ ohh sry.. but gutsy might be worth checking out.. i belive it has more support for wifi cards
[10:58] <oriez> how can i bring the tray menu back
[10:58] <Jowi> Sajes, "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" is the easiest way. then log out, chose kde as a session then log in. you can also install kde piece by piece but that I won't go into :)
[10:59] <joe_> hello
[10:59] <jrib> Sajes: no, you can run kde from gdm, gdm (or kdm) is just the login screen you see
[10:59] <Sajes> jrib, Oh. ;)
[10:59] <Gizmo_the_Great> OK - is there anyway to check the 'status' of Samba on a machine? i.e. what is or is not shared via Samba, what users are enabled\disabled etc?
[11:00] <Matthew_> shooters: that download link didnt work for wget but i got the correct link at sourceforge
[11:00] <oriez> how can i bring the tray menu back?????
[11:00] <InuNova> how i install  programs on linux ?
[11:00] <dcroxton> Gizmo: can you browse to the folder from localhost?
[11:00] <jrib> !software > InuNova (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:00] <muki> i'm back
[11:00] <rathel> aptitude is easier, because you can aptitude remove kubuntu-desktop to remove all parts.
[11:00] <gowrav> i have folder with eclipse instalable debian packages (all available) but instaaling one depentdson other and other depends on other ..is there any way the installer search itself in the folder for dependacies it self ...
[11:00] <jrib> oriez: what tray menu?
[11:00] <Sajes> Thanks everyone. I'm going to try it in a minute. (i'm On windows. Winmodem + free linuxant drivers = 14.4k connection).
[11:00] <muki> i've installed the driver
[11:00] <Ray_at_UW> Okay. I got the pastebin up: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37446/ My Video card is listed in my Xorg config apparently.
[11:00] <muki> the login screen appers ok
[11:00] <shooters> Matthew_: ok, and did it work?
[11:00] <muki> but i can't login
[11:00] <sergevn> rathel: I have bad experience with that
[11:00] <Matthew_> still downloading atm
[11:00] <muki> after i give my login name and passowrd
[11:00] <Sajes> okay - Going to go try it. thanks again everyone.

[11:01] <rathel> sergevn, really? not me.
[11:01] <Ray_at_UW> I don't understand, the resolutions are listed, but I am not getting those options in the screen resolution picker under the system menu.
[11:01] <Gizmo_the_Great> dcroxton, not sure what you mean? I am trying to access it (mount is specifically) from another machine on the network. ?
[11:01] <disinterested> ha the streaming radio stations are back in streamtuner
[11:01] <oriez> jrib - the place where i have the skype and the Giam icons its on the top panel

[11:06] <shooters> good
[11:07] <UrbenLegend> !samba | Gizmo_the_Great

[11:08] <Matthew_> shooters: it wants location of php configuration files
[11:10] <shooters> Matthew_: probably in /etc/php5/php.ini, try looking in /etc/ for any php directory... the conf file is php.ini

[11:20] <Wolphie> If anybody can help me in setting up my webserver please PM me
[11:20] <mazza558> i've got samba set up, with a shared folder and set to the correct windows workgroup, but the other computers cannot "see" or connect to it... what's wrong?
[11:20] <FusionMan> so to set permissions.  sudo chmod 777 /dev/sdb1  ?
[11:20] <Jowi> gerath, that is to say, most players handle it with the right codec installed. use "file filename.avi" to see which video codec it need
[11:20] <Juliu1> |brad|: just installed the libstdc++.. and problem still persists
[11:20] <boojah_> ndiggity: are you setting up the partition manually? or just "use free space"?
[11:20] <ndiggity> i tried doing it the other way around too but i also got the same problem
[11:20] <ndiggity> manually
[11:21] <|brad|> Juliu1, did you install the dev package
[11:21] <boojah_> ndiggity: have you tried "use free space"?
[11:21] <[nrx] > ndiggity: did you give the partition a type? i.e. ext3?
[11:21] <Juliu1> yes, copy pasted your command and changed the instell to install ;)
[11:21] <ndiggity> that is already selected
[11:21] <ndiggity> ext3
[11:21] <|brad|> Juliu1, haha
[11:21] <Wolphie> I'm having trouble in setting the permissions for my webserver so that i can access files and read, write, execute them remotely via FTP

[11:21] <ndiggity> how to i "se free space"
[11:21] <ndiggity> do i*
[11:21] <Juliu1> I tried to run apt-find... but it doesn't show anything
[11:21] <boojah_> ndiggity: did you select /
[11:21] <Juliu1> no result
[11:22] <Wolphie> I'm running proftpd
[11:22] <ndiggity> yes as the mount point
[11:22] <Juliu1> sorry, apt-file
[11:22] <ndiggity> for the 13gb part
[11:22] <ndiggity> do i have to do that for the swap as well?
[11:22] <boojah_> ndiggity if you resize first you can go back and then use free space
[11:22] <ndiggity> i did resize first
[11:22] <Geoffrey2> any ideas on how I'd need to go about getting that header file?
[11:22] <ndiggity> oh i see what you mean
[11:22] <linuxftw> how can I stop a partition from being auto mounted in ubuntu? is there a GUI for editing /etc/fstab?
[11:22] <Juliu1> shooters: cheers shooters, I'll give it a try
[11:23] <ndiggity> so the step where i select manual select use free space?

[11:24] <FusionMan> sudo chmod 777 /dev/sdb1  is what I thought the code, no one has responded thus far.

[11:42] <Geoffrey2> jrib, the version of gnash I have is more recent than the version in the repositories...version 0.8.1.....0.7.2 is what the repos have
[11:43] <e> numzie: do you have another kernel to boot from?
[11:43] <[nrx] > /meh
[11:43] <[Sulphur] > hi, I have a problem with libapache2-mod-php5, evince, firefox related to libxml and cannot find any post about it, can you help me? when I try to reconfigure gnome-session a warning says: program compiled against libxml 206 using older 204;  I am using Dapper...
[11:43] <jrib> Geoffrey2: yes, do you understand what I suggested?
[11:43] <deus> im afraind the nvidia modules to gutsy dont work along with the linux kernel
[11:43] <Jowi> Numzie, what led up to that error? any changes made to the system before that boot?
[11:43] <Pici> !gutsy
[11:43] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[11:43] <deus> what does C means in aptitude?
[11:44] <scalawag> I'm not seeing a link anywhere
[11:44] <[nrx] > scalawag: when you have pasted it and hit paste, the url in your browser window... that's the url we need
[11:44] <Pici> scalawag: How about in the address bar.
[11:44] <[nrx] > Pici: lol

[11:44] <motin__> Hey, I just moved a movie file to another folder and it truly _disappeared_. How can I check what the latest changes to the file system was? I really would like to watch the movie but it is nowhere to be found! And no change in disk space was detected
[11:44] <Numzie> Jowi not that i know of
[11:45] <Numzie> e I dont know if i have another kernal, i cant type anything in anyways
[11:45] <Numzie> its a Fiesty Server install
[11:45] <Pici> scalawag: Is this Ubuntu or Debian?
[11:45] <scalawag> Ubuntu
[11:45] <scalawag> feisty fawn
[11:45] <Numzie> All ive done is compile a driver but it worked after that
[11:45] <Jowi> Numzie, so one day it booted fine, the next you get "devfs" failure? you didn't happen to make a dist-upgrade or anything?
[11:45] <e> does it get to the grub menu?
[11:45] <shooters> arex\: Do a backup of that file (i.e. to /etc/network/interfaces.old) and then delete all lines in it and save it.  Then try disabling the interface using network-admin (by checking/unchecking the little check box near the interface name)
[11:45] <Sajes> [nrx] : It worked.. but it needs to download 269MB of archives for KDE. For that, I will wait untill I buy my hardware modem. Thanks for your help :)
[11:46] <[nrx] > Sajes: no problem :)
[11:46] <[Sulphur] > hi, I got this error when I run apache2ctl restart: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.load:

[11:46] <Numzie> Jowi I installed a raid yesterday, well a linux specialist did.
[11:46] <nomadsoul> is there any way to disable PAE in ubuntu server 7.04 using some options in grub?
[11:46] <MBR666> i got a question. when i'm in console not terminal under x11. how do i change the console color to lets say orange?
[11:46] <nomadsoul> i need it to boot ubuntu server 7.04 on virtualbox
[11:46] <Jowi> Numzie, ok, so ask that linux specialist what he did exactly to make your system unbootalbe :/
[11:47] <Geoffrey2> jrib, apt-get returned an error that it couldn't satisfy the dependencies
[11:47] <Numzie> He compiled some rocketraid drivers
[11:47] <Pici> scalawag: Did you change anything recently? Add some repositories? Install something?
[11:47] <jrib> Geoffrey2: pastebin the command and the error
[11:47] <Stanley> Anyone know how to fix this. When ever I open a new window in gnome, the title bar is always just out of reach off the top of my screen. If I move the window back and close it, then re-open it, it is back off the top of my screen again.
[11:47] <scalawag> all kinds of things
[11:47] <Matthew_> i am getting access denied errors from my squid server anyone know why that may be?
[11:47] <scalawag> could having a bad repository cause the error?
[11:47] <nomadsoul> is there any way to disable PAE in ubuntu server 7.04 using some options in grub? (something link no-pae ... :)
[11:47] <nomadsoul> i need it to boot ubuntu server 7.04 on virtualbox
[11:47] <Pici> scalawag: If you added a debian repository, yes.
[11:48] <Pici> !repeat | nomadsoul
[11:48] <ubotu> nomadsoul: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:48] <Jowi> Numzie, pretty hard to troubleshoot. can be the driver that is causing it or that he installed a different kernel version. my bet is to load another kernel at boot time.
[11:48] <erf3d> so ... did someone use the find /boot/grub/stage1 ?
[11:48] <NobodyReadMe> hi, I got this error when I run apache2ctl restart: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.load: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so into server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so: undefined symbol: xmlTextReaderGetAttribute
[11:48] <Numzie> Jowi how do i do that?

[11:48] <Jork> hello to everyone.I install nvidia's graphic drivers in terminal with command : sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new, but problem is that system don't recognize changes.With wich command can I enable them?
[11:48] <neverblue2> trying to both make a panel 'not able to be deleted' and I am trying to edit it more (I want to get rid of Places and System), how can I do so ?
[11:48] <nomadsoul> Pici: sorry :(
[11:49] <Geoffrey2> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37451/
[11:49] <Jowi> Numzie, when the system starts up you should get a list with different kernels (or "press ESC for grub menu" - press ESC to see the kernels available). then chose an earlier kernel and press enter.
[11:49] <Pici> scalawag: Can you paste your /etc/apt/sources.list?
[11:49] <erf3d> well ... good night :'(
[11:49] <Numzie> Jowi, let me try that, one second
[11:49] <Jowi> Numzie, however, all bets are off when a new raid system has been defined. depends on how it was set up.
[11:49] <deus> how can i make sure the nvidia-kernel modules and the kernel can wrok together???!
[11:49] <Stanley> Jork: I belive you have to run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select the nvidia drivers. But I would not do it unless you were sure.
[11:49] <Pici> scalawag: pastebin, of course.
[11:50] <erf3d> (for the one who answered me in private, I'm sorry but I can't see his message )
[11:50] <jrib> Geoffrey2: can you pastebin your sources.list as well?
[11:50] <arex\> shooters: http://pastebin.com/m46da53c5
[11:50] <scalawag> I got it, last repo in there...
[11:50] <Jowi> Numzie, software/hardware raid/LVM. if you can't get it to boot you really should as the person who set it up for you.
[11:50] <scalawag> Thanks a lot man
[11:51] <Jowi> s/as/ask
[11:51] <MBR666> when i'm in console not terminal under x11. how do i change the console color to lets say orange?
[11:51] <neverblue2> trying to both make a panel 'not able to be deleted' and I am trying to edit it more (I want to get rid of Places and System), how can I do so ?
[11:51] <arex\> shooters: I pretty much want to disable everything except ath0
[11:51] <Stanley> MBR666: What terminal are you in? gnome-terminal?
[11:51] <Numzie> Jowi, I only have the default kernal, its recovery mode and Memtest in the menu.
[11:52] <Sajes> How do you pronounce Ubuntu?
[11:52] <[nrx] > oo boon tooo
[11:52] <MBR666> Stanley, not terminal. i'm talking actual console prompt. when you first boot. but not in x11.
[11:52] <scalawag> OK...New headache...
[11:52] <Sajes> I heard somewhere it was Oo-boon-too.
[11:52] <scalawag> E: apache: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[11:52] <BlankDenim> Sajes: I say it 'uh-bun-too' though haha
[11:52] <jrib> MBR666: the text or the prompt?
[11:52] <MBR666> the text
[11:52] <Jowi> Numzie, try recovery mode. if that does not give you a console login you're toast. unless your friend have some better idea of what's going on.
[11:52] <lnx_> what in linux is like paint in windows ?
[11:52] <neverblue2> U-bun-2
[11:53] <Sajes> so Kubuntu, in turn, would be pronounced Koo-Boon-Too?
[11:53] <Stanley> MBR666: You want the set the forground color (text color) of bash. Usually the white text you see on boot up?
[11:53] <jrib> lnx_: gpaint, xpaint, tuxpaint?
[11:53] <Jowi> Numzie, as I said, it depends on how the raid was set up.
[11:53] <MBR666> Stanley, yes
[11:53] <Numzie> Jowi, Hardware raid 5
[11:53] <scalawag> Any ideas what this means?
[11:53] <Numzie> Jowi, is there a way i can repair it?
[11:54] <lnx_> jrib , wich of them is the best ?
[11:54] <Geoffrey2> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37453/
[11:54] <Sajes> Brb.
[11:54] <Stanley> MBR666: Not sure, let me do some searching.
[11:54] <Juliu1> shooters: Thanks a lot the second option worked for me
[11:54] <Jowi> Numzie, that is out of my league i'm afraid.
[11:54] <Sajes> Oh- Before I go BRB, i have a question. How do I make it so a command is used at startup?
[11:54] <MBR666> Stanley, ty. i couldn't find what i watned via google
[11:54] <liz> Set mail_show_messages on
[11:54] <liz> hah
[11:54] <Stanley> MBR666: Are you using grub?
[11:55] <[nrx] > Sajes: a command is used at startup?
[11:55] <[nrx] > brb - kawfie
[11:55] <MBR666> i'm using grub and that damn usplash thing ubuntu uses in fiesty
[11:55] <jrib> lnx_: gpaint is nice, I just use GIMP
[11:55] <nomadsoul> Pici: can i ask it again now?
[11:55] <Krimpet> does anyone know how to configure gnome-terminal so it flashes in the taskbar when an audible bell goes off?
[11:55] <Pici> nomadsoul: Yes.  You didn't have to wait this long.
[11:55] <MBR666> gimp is the app to use personally my fav
[11:56] <jrib> Geoffrey2: you might need feisty-updates universe and multiverse
[11:56] <Sajes> [nrx] : Yes. Like, for instance, if I wanted to shut GDM off at startup, how would I make it use the command "Sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[11:56] <jrib> !easysource > Geoffrey2 (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:56] <neverblue2> I have an applications.menu in /etc/xdg/menus, and in /usr/share/app-install/desktop, I should apply changes to the /etc/xdg/menus to affect my desktop, correct ?
[11:56] <Stanley> MBR666: I just asked your question in #grub No one has replied yet, so if you want to /join #grub
[11:56] <Pelo> Krimpet,  go to  menu > syustem > prefs < sounds,  third tab , system beeps,  visual alert
[11:56] <MBR666> k ty Stanley
[11:56] <tuxpower> when you upgrade from feisty to gutsy, does your old installed apps remain intact ? along with home folder?
[11:57] <jrib> MBR666: I don't know either, but "setterm" seems like it is supposed to do it (but doesn't when I try 'setterm -foreground red')
[11:57] <Dr_willis_> tuxpower,  in theory - yes. :)
[11:57] <Sajes> This is an entirely different command, all the same. I want it to use this command: "/usr/lib/xscreensaver/glmatrix -root"
[11:57] <jrib> MBR666: hmm, actually that command works in bash but not in zsh :/
[11:57] <tuxpower> Dr_Willis how to upgrade to gusty from feisty?
[11:57] <Pelo> neverblue, what do you want to do , change the items in the application menu ?  just go to  system > prefs > main menu,  or try using  gconf-editor
[11:57] <Krimpet> Pelo: i had that set, and it flashes the titlebar of the window, but not the button in the taskbar
[11:58] <[nrx] > Sajes: try http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-6963.html
[11:58] <Dr_willis_> Sajes,  using root window drawing apps. often do not work with kde or gnome . since kde/gnome take over the root window. You dont see the apps.
[11:58] <Numzie> how do i identify myself to the server?
[11:58] <neverblue2> Pelo, no, thats easy ;)
[11:58] <jrib> !register > Numzie (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:58] <Dr_willis_> tuxpower,  id wait a few more weeks to upgrade
[11:58] <Pelo> Krimpet, try in gconf-editor might be able to do it there
[11:58] <Sajes> [nrx] : thank you.
[11:58] <Geoffrey2> jrib, backports as well?
[11:58] <tuxpower> Dr_Willis ok will do :)
[11:58] <[nrx] > Sajes: np
[11:58] <jrib> Geoffrey2: nah, those aren't needed
[11:58] <Sajes> Numzie: /ns id <password>
[11:58] <Krimpet> i'm trying to get it so the taskbar will flash when irssi highlights words, like xchat does
[11:58] <kbrooks> Sajes, identify, not id.
[11:59] <jrib> MBR666: ah and 'setterm -foreground red -store' works in zsh too :)
[11:59] <Sajes> kbrooks: it's the same thing.
[11:59] <unperson> Hi.  I'm messing around with "desktop effects" (i.e. compiz) on Feisty, but I'm having some issues.  For some reason the cube rotation thing doesn't seem to be working now.  It did before, but now when I hit the key sequence it just switches desktops with no animation (except a little fade in).  Any idea what might have happened?  Is there a gconf setting I can tweak to turn it back on?
[11:59] <neverblue2> Pelo :: trying to both make a panel 'not able to be deleted' and I am trying to edit it more (I want to get rid of Places and System), how can I do so ?
[11:59] <Sajes> kbrooks: /msg nickserve identify <password> does the same thing.
[11:59] <Pelo> Krimpet, sorry to ask but if you have a gui running anyway why don'T you use xchat instead of running a cli irc clent in a terminal ?
[11:59] <[nrx] > Sajes: no, it's nickserv, not nickerve ;p
[12:00] <kbrooks> Sajes, not on some servers.
[12:00] <Pelo> neverblue, I'm pretty sure you can disable "system" from main menu ,  places I 'm not sure about
[12:00] <neverblue2> main menu ?
[12:00] <Poul|Raider> i get "no mixer avalible" when pressing setup in ventrilo.  the sound works tho
[12:00] <Sajes> [nrx] : my bad.
[12:01] <[nrx] > ;P
[12:01] <Pelo> neverblue2, nevermind, I just checked
[12:01] <nomadsoul> is there any way to disable PAE in ubuntu server 7.04 using some options in grub? (something link no-pae ... :)
[12:01] <nomadsoul> i need it to boot ubuntu server 7.04 on virtualbox
[12:01] <Sajes> kbrooks: it's the same on this server, and he asked it on this server. So, I assumed he wanted it for this server.
[12:01] <neverblue2> Pelo, so you have caught up to me now :)
[12:01] <Pelo> neverblue2,  there is another type of menu for the task bar
[12:01] <Sajes> kbrooks: most people don't wander to an entirely different server to identify themselves on a different one.
[12:01] <OscarM> #ubuntu-es
[12:02] <Krimpet> Pelo: i've normally used xchat, but i've been giving irssi a try and i really like it so far
[12:02] <Pelo> neverblue, try right clicking the pannel   add to pannel ,  toward the bottom, but not quite  main menu
[12:02] <[nrx] > Konversation :D
[12:02] <Krimpet> (i'm a recent convert from windows and mIRC too, it surprises me how usable irssi is :S)
[12:02] <Pelo> neverblue2, try right clicking the pannel   add to pannel ,  toward the bottom, but not quite  main menu
[12:02] <OscarM> i want to change spanish
[12:02] <OscarM> ???
[12:03] <neverblue2> Pelo still cannot remove Places, nor System
