[12:04] <AncientRelic> stefg, ok just like NTFS. Good enough

[12:06] <bobby> what is the package name of the propretary flash player in ubuntu?
[12:06] <hmhowie> Balsus-Legdre: usually ctrl+C will kill the current process
[12:06] <MeRodent> Balsus-Legdre, try CTRL+C or CTRL+Z
[12:06] <pvl1> negnin sorry i had to run for a bit, but it isnt specifically an app it stands on a sql thing. im not sure exactly how it works, but it isnt run from the terminal

[12:11] <Jimmey> mc44, I have that too, but the man file wasn't very helpful
[12:12] <negnin> pvl1: there are packages for it though
[12:12] <mc44> Jimmey: it has a gui, you're not using that?
[12:12] <stefg> steel_lady: everything looks normal so far. I have two ideas: 1.) vfat isn't a very stable filesystem, so if you can I would do a complete backup, reformat the external drive and restore. 2.) it can be a flaky USB connector, this would explain why it gets mouted twice. if it has loose contacts it gets very confused by being mounted/unmounted in such a rapid speed
[12:12] <Jimmey> mc44, ahh, I do. It doesn't seem to support mp3s though
[12:12] <kaje> can someone tell me where to start when trying to get my modem to work with Ubuntu?

[12:30] <swiftnomad> Hello. How do I update thunderbird from 1.5 to 2.X
[12:30] <salah> Hello. My machine is suddenly turning it self off. I know this problem has to be with Linux. When the machine turns it self off, I see something like speedstep for centrino. Any idea how to fix this problem?
[12:30] <salah> swiftnomad, sudo apt-get update
[12:30] <streetbmx> salah, get a new computer
[12:30] <negnin> Shapeshifter: change the convert and ls command according to your wishes
[12:30] <s3nz0r> nooo
[12:30] <swiftnomad> doesn't show any updates for it
[12:30] <stefg> salah: overheating beacuse acpi is not working properly, i assiume
[12:31] <Pelo> salah, speedstep is a cpufreq modulator for some  chips,  do you have that installed ,a re you using a laptop ?
[12:31] <salah> stefg, yes, the computer is VERY hot. any idea how to deal with this?
[12:31] <swiftnomad> let me restart salah
[12:31] <salah> Pelo, yes, a Acer Aspire 5040
[12:31] <ZmaX> stefg, do I have to do some king of defrag?
[12:32] <stefg> salah: so it's acpi trouble... you'll have to do some research on google for your hardware and known issues with it
[12:32] <Pelo> salah, I'M not all that knowledgable about this,  I would look into hibernation/suspend stuff , ifyou have it setup, that's all I can think about
[12:32] <stefg> ZmaX: linux filesystems don't need defrag
[12:32] <spyteman> could someone do me a huuuuuuuuuuge favour and archive everything that has to do with LIRC from an untouched ubuntu install? untouched as in not messed with infrared/lirc stuff?
[12:32] <bobby> mc44: still having problems installing that
[12:32] <mc44> bobby: what problems?
[12:32] <spyteman> i need to come back to original ubuntu configuration :(
[12:33] <Pelo> spyteman,  did you try deleting the ~/.lirc folder if there is one
[12:33] <spyteman> oh
[12:33] <salah> stefg, alright.. this is the most annoyning I ever had.. today, I was presenting my big project for the whole gathering, and suddenly I get an error... and my presentation was about why linux is better than windows
[12:33] <spyteman> nah theres none in my home dir
[12:33] <spyteman> Pelo are you experienced with lirc?
[12:34] <bobby> mc44: synaptic shows its installed but detais show me that mismatch in checksum + no install adobe site shows me that v7.0.6.1.0 is installed
[12:34] <Pelo> spyteman, no , just running throught the basics,  you can also try  going into synptic and doing a complete uninstall
[12:34] <mc44> bobby: did you enable backports?
[12:34] <ompaul> spyteman, sudo apt-get remove --purge lirc (and other package names) that --purge kills off or reports config files
[12:34] <Steve^> How do I get out of a full screen remote desktop?
[12:34] <ompaul> spyteman, then with all removed start again
[12:34] <spyteman> ok thanks
[12:35] <bobby> mc44: yeah it says that 9. something is installed
[12:35] <frostburn> spyteman, your lirc break too?

[12:35] <spyteman> the default install by ubuntu worked
[12:35] <spyteman> but i messed with lirc myself and now it's broken
[12:35] <mc44> bobby: in firefox do "about:plugins" what does that say?
[12:36] <frostburn> spyteman, if you get it running again, let me know
[12:36] <frostburn> spyteman, i have a similar problem
[12:36] <GIn> can wget opens more than 1 connection to download a file?
[12:36] <spyteman> ok frostburn
[12:36] <Jimmey> spyteman, can't you just delete the configuration files, and un/re-install?
[12:36] <spyteman> well where are all the config files?

[12:37] <salah> is there no way to remove a package without removing ubuntu-desktop?
[12:37] <robdeman> hello all, can anybody help me out with this error?? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37744/
[12:37] <spyteman> Jimmey i tried from terminal, .l + TAB gives me nothing
[12:37] <frostburn> Jimmey, but the vanilla install worked flawlessly, i believe the question is getting it back to a default working state
[12:37] <vas> where should I start with an idea like this, what programming lanauge, I have experience with programming already
[12:37] <negnin> GIn: you can use stuff like {1,2} in an URL to get both files after eachother
[12:37] <Pelo> salah,  ubuntu-desktop is just a meta package you can remove it with no worries
[12:37] <spyteman> how do i search my filesystem for files/directories named lirc?
[12:37] <Jimmey> spyteman, sudo apt-get purge lirc un-installs it and deletes config files.
[12:37] <Jimmey> Can't be sure though
[12:38] <Jimmey> I think
[12:38] <GIn> I mean to open like 10 connections to download a single file
[12:38] <frostburn> spyteman, $locate lirc
[12:38] <salah> Pelo, last time it removed every other packages in my computer too...
[12:38] <vas> anyone?
[12:38] <swiftnomad> hello channel!
[12:38] <spyteman> hmm
[12:38] <frostburn> vas, you might want to ask #ubuntu-devel

[12:40] <spyteman> please :)
[12:41] <Pelo> swiftnomad,  you would need to install the .2.x one if you have no updates for it in the repos, go to the thunderbird site and look for a deb file,  or the source
[12:41] <stefg> swiftnomad: sudo apt-get upgrade that is
[12:41] <Taffy-nay> it's a real time lan monitor that will alert you audibly when events happen on your network, such as, new IP addresses being assigned....you see where I'm going with this? :P
[12:41] <Pelo> patrlck, right click  unlock  , then right lick move
[12:41] <negnin> spyteman: you don't want to remove all those, other packages may also need them

[12:43] <vancomycin> Pelo, it never appeared again, ubuntu just hung when i was running a test on xserver-xorg-  i didn't change anything just clicked test,. it happened once
[12:43] <patrlck> Pelo, how do I readd the application/places/system icons ?
[12:43] <Pelo> spyteman, liblircclient0 that is the only one I see installed
[12:43] <vancomycin> negnin, what does that do ?
[12:43] <negnin> spyteman: you can remove lirc and then use deborphan to remove unused libs etc if you're concerned about that
[12:43] <spyteman> deborphan?
[12:44] <mc44> bobby: try "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree" then "apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" (close synaptic)
[12:44] <Shapeshifter> @ imagemagick conversions: I did as you said and wrote a for-thingy according to the tutorial and it works like a charm. I have another question: I don't quite understand the difference between "-resize", "-resample" "-size" "-adaptive-resize" and all those other possibilities. I'd like to have smaller high-quality version of the original image.
[12:44] <patrlck> Pelo, nevermind, it looks like using the 'move' option worked
[12:44] <patrlck> thanks
[12:44] <spyteman> thanks Pelo
[12:44] <Pelo> vancomycin,  then assume that the prolblem got fixed and avoid  nasty turnoff in the future
[12:44] <vancomycin> negnin, : nvm he system utility fsck (for "file system check"
[12:44] <bobby> since it uses 3d party installer that seems to download and install suff
[12:44] <negnin> Shapeshifter: use -size 1000x1000 -resize 1000x1000 it gives better results
[12:44] <vancomycin> can i just run "fsck" in terminal?
[12:44] <bobby> md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[12:44] <bobby> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[12:45] <Shapeshifter> negnin: Why both?
[12:45] <bobby> mc44: for you
[12:45] <hugo_> hi there
[12:45] <mc44> bobby: when does that happen?
[12:46] <xhaju> hi everybody
[12:46] <rt56> hi xhaju

[12:47] <frostburn> spyteman, it looks like it doesn't run as a daemon, i'm not sure how it's configured
[12:47] <Taffy-nay> Pelo: did you see my description?
[12:47] <vancomycin> Pelo, negnin : can i just run "fsck" in terminal just to be on the safe side? this is day2 of using ubuntu for me - running on a dual boot. if yes, do i need any other parameters with this command? i understand it runs on boot - so if i have a dual boot, do ii just select the first generic option?
[12:47] <bobby> mc44: well just before it drops back to the promt when installing it
[12:47] <spyteman> did you sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart frostburn?
[12:48] <mc44> bobby: sounds like the download corrupted or the version on their server is busted
[12:48] <frostburn> spyteman, lirc was never in my vanilla install, but remote worked regardless
[12:48] <mc44> bobby: is it redownloading it each time or using a cached copy?
[12:48] <Pelo> Taffy-nay, I just went back and read it,   try wireshark  I think that sounds like what you want but I'm not up on this network stuff
[12:49] <Pelo> vancomycin, yes you can run fsck have fun with it ,don'T expect me to tell you what the result mean
[12:49] <spyteman> hm ok
[12:49] <bobby> mc44: yeah i guess they had a minor version update but since the package to download is _9_linux.tar.gz
[12:49] <bobby> mc44: looks like its downloading it everytime
[12:49] <Xenguy> vancomycin: I believe that fsck is not supposed to be run on mounted volumes IIRC
[12:49] <vancomycin> Pelo, i am looking it up on the forums - just learning man... thanks
[12:49] <ironfroggy> i followed the link i was given on passwordless ssh login, but its the same i already have done and i still cant get in without a prompt. any other ideas?
[12:50] <mc44> bobby: you could try grabbing the feisty deb and seeing if that works
[12:50] <vancomycin> Xenguy, yeah i saw some people used fsck the wrong way - and some bad things happened

[12:54] <cocox> hi there, i have an issue with my soundcard... i have been reading in the forums and found that maybe is because Ubuntu Festy realize about my two soundcars... one is VIA which is integrated in my motherboard and the other is Audigy Creative, the one i want to use. After using the alsamixer command i realize that ubuntu is using the VIA soundcard instead the Audigy, i checked also for alsa.conf but i couldn't found nothing related to... how can i tell ubun

[12:56] <stefg> ironfroggy: not sure... all i can tell is that ubuntu to ubuntu ssh works pw-less with the guide i gave you. Maybe the ssh host is confiured to require a pass in any case?

[12:56] <ironfroggy> im using authorized_keys, no 2, on my other boxes and it works.
[12:57] <cwgannon> the easiest way to convert 5000+ m4as with tags to ogg is ... ?

[12:58] <Pelo> eZtaR, try and be breif

[01:00] <spyteman> "kernel headers"
[01:00] <Pelo> spyteman, same as in anyother linux os

[01:00] <spyteman> where is it in any other linux os then Pelo?
[01:01] <ironfroggy> are there any logs i can watch for sshd?
[01:01] <Pelo> spyteman,  I don'T know and if you donT' eitehr you probably shoudln'T be messing with that
[01:01] <negnin> cwgannon: I would write a script calling faad en oggenc but I don't if the tags would survive

[01:16] <nekkidtruth> I tried installing Gentoo (just for the adventure) and found it to be rather difficult for my tastes so I settled on Xubuntu.  Anyway, I got fairly far in the Gentoo installation process, setup the disks etc...but when I put in the Xubuntu live CD and double click install on the desktop, it tries to setup "sda1" etc instead of "hda1"....it's not a SCSI drive O.o
[01:16] <abc> any GUI for custom Ubuntu CD creation?
[01:16] <nekkidtruth> It's also picking up the previously created partitions etc from the Gentoo install.

[01:17] <vanadio> nek try the alternate iso
[01:17] <IntuitiveNipple> "create disk from the image"
[01:17] <nekkidtruth> There is an alternate ISO? >.>
[01:17] <IntuitiveNipple> the disk should then be bootable

[01:18] <CaptainMorgan> !firefox
[01:18] <patbam> IntuitiveNipple: thanks.
[01:18] <abc> any GUI for custom Ubuntu CD creation?
[01:18] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: how do you want to update it?
[01:18] <brad__> patbam: From the contents of the image. Creating it with the image file inside will produce a cd that just has the image file on it.
[01:18] <kevin__> nekkidtruth: don't panic - afaik, the way in which drives are handled has changed with 7.04, and ide drives will now appear as scsi, ie, sdaX.. at least, that's my experience so far..
[01:18] <CaptainMorgan> yigal, hmm.. how? I just want to get v2.0.0.6, I currently have v2.0.0.4

[01:19] <patbam> IntuitiveNipple, brad__: er, which one of you is right?
[01:19] <knightrider_> howdy
[01:19] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: the version you are using depends upon the repositories you are using for upgrades or anything you do manually
[01:19] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: are you used to using apt?
[01:19] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: We said the same thing :)
[01:19] <CaptainMorgan> yigal, yes
[01:19] <CaptainMorgan> somewhat
[01:19] <nekkidtruth> I don't think that's actually the case.  This is the 4th time I'm installing an *ubuntu distro, and the first time ever I've seen it refer to this drive as sda*
[01:20] <psyion> hello everyone
[01:20] <negnin> abc: no, I don't do UIs :) I was trying to make the bot tell you about repeating a question, but I killed it instead :(
[01:20] <rlount> nekkidtruth, SATA?
[01:20] <dsctm3> test
[01:20] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: so are you trying to find a repos with 0.6 in it or download firefox and install manually?

[01:20] <dsctm3> sorry/thanks
[01:20] <abc> negnin: is there something wrong with periodically repeating a question?

[01:20] <psyion> can any1 here help me out gettin my radeon 2600xt drivers installed? im new to unbuntu today
[01:21] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: why do you want 0.6 rather than 0.4?
[01:21] <patbam> sigh, it seems to have hung
[01:21] <nekkidtruth> rlount: The drive has always come up as hda.
[01:21] <CaptainMorgan> yigal, why not? :)
[01:21] <rlount> nekkidtruth, cool, but is it SATA?
[01:21] <psyion> any1?
[01:21] <negnin> abc: I will tell you when the bot is revived :)
[01:21] <abc> is there any way to save my current live ubuntu session on a cd (so I could boot it later?)
[01:21] <nekkidtruth> rlount: Nope IDE
[01:21] <brad__> patbam: There may be an option in whatever program you are using to burn from an image as opposed to say a "data CD." It may be better to find that option.
[01:21] <kevin__> psyion: are you running 7.04?
[01:22] <psyion> how do i check lol
[01:22] <rlount> nekkidtruth, weird.
[01:22] <patbam> brad__: i'm using cd/dvd creator that's the default in gnome
[01:22] <CaptainMorgan> yigal, nvd, apparently I don't have to - using an app that says to update to a new version if problems exist, and I've found a way to bypass the problem, thanks anyways
[01:22] <brad__> patbam: Sorry, I'm using kubuntu or I would look for you.
[01:22] <yigal> I use screen and I have a vim process in the terminal I have run screen with in the background.  Is it possible to move a process from the terminal pts/9 to pts/1
[01:22] <kevin__> psyion: go to system -> about ubuntu and in the blurb it should tell you which version
[01:23] <nekkidtruth> Interestingly enough though, each time I install any form of ubuntu, even if it's the same one, there are almost always difference results O.o
[01:23] <nekkidtruth> different*
[01:23] <psyion> 7.04
[01:23] <psyion> woop
[01:23] <yigal> CaptainMorgan: I am glad it worked out
[01:23] <nekkidtruth> But this one has me totally stumped.
[01:23] <Geeunkown> fas
[01:24] <jamin> can someone help me make my soundcard record 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 03)
[01:24] <abc> is there any way to save my current live ubuntu session on a cd (so I could boot it later?)
[01:24] <kevin__> psyion: ok, go to system -> administration -> restricted drivers manager. it should list your ati card and from there you can install the necessary driver. let me know how you get on
[01:24] <negnin> yigal: isn't it easier to detach your screen and attach it somewhere else?
[01:24] <nekkidtruth> vanadio, why would I try the alternate ISO?  Just out of curiousity.
[01:24] <anonobomber> yigal: screen -r
[01:24] <DShepherd> abc, http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/index.php -- check out reconstructor.. not sure if that is what you want
[01:24] <abc> Thanks
[01:25] <psyion> i did that before and it stoped me booting ubuntu so i had to reinstall
[01:25] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: In CD/DVD creator goto Help > Contents then "Writing CDs or DVDs" then "Creating a Disc from an image file"
[01:25] <yigal> negnin & anonobomber: yes of course this works but in general is it possible to move a process that is running in the background of one terminal to the foreground of another
[01:25] <psyion> took me to command rpomt type thing no gui
[01:25] <dsevilla> :( new gnome 2.20 in gutsy is broken :(
[01:25] <Pici> !gutsy | dsevilla
[01:25] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: The solution is to right-click the .ISO file you downloaded and choose "Write to Disc"
[01:25] <kevin__> psyion: what happened exactly? did you just end up with a black screen?
[01:25] <psyion> yeah
[01:25] <psyion> asking for a password
[01:26] <psyion> and username
[01:26] <yigal> anonobomber: oh, screen -r ok, yes, great
[01:26] <dsevilla> Pici: ?
[01:26] <phar0z> alright maybe a weird question: but can a native English speaker help me with one thing please?
[01:26] <kevin__> did it say anything about x not being able to start?
[01:26] <DShepherd> Pici, soething up with the bot?
[01:26] <psyion> not that i cant remember
[01:26] <DShepherd> !hi
[01:27] <rlount> phar0z, whats up?
[01:27] <phar0z> hi rlount
[01:27] <DShepherd> !hi
[01:27] <phar0z> rlount, u are a native English speaker?
[01:27] <psyion> i can try again
[01:27] <rlount> Yes I am.
[01:27] <DShepherd> :-(
[01:27] <arkanes> is there a way to agt-get remove all the packages that were installed by a metapackage like kubuntu-desktop?
[01:27] <phar0z> i'll ask you something private then
[01:27] <patbam> IntuitiveNipple: that's what i did, but now i just have: http://ruphus.com/stash/Screenshot-Write_to_Disc.png and teh cd isn't spinning
[01:27] <cwgannon> negnin: thanks for the script -- i'll give it a shot if soundconverter fails
[01:27] <PriceChild> DShepherd, the bot had to be restarted, he will be back very soon :)
[01:27] <rlount> From Oregon, US English but it's all I have ;)
[01:27] <mc44> phar0z: the channel ##english exists for help with English btw :)
[01:27] <hmhowie> phar0z: i can pretend to be a native english speaker :)
[01:27] <psyion> how can i configure x?
[01:27] <DShepherd> PriceChild, ok.. i thought he didnt like me anymore
[01:27] <psyion> hopfully thats is
[01:27] <PriceChild> !xconfig | psyion
[01:27] <phar0z> I have a discussion with windows users about this
[01:27] <PriceChild> bahhhh :D
[01:28] <phar0z> Furthermore, thanks to this program I developed a view which goes further than your, let us be frank, retarded insights. Is it your or yours in this sentence?
[01:28] <fulio> when i booted my laptop , it said " there was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon" and my apearance and my icons are back to the original. any help?
[01:28] <rlount> phar0z, ok.
[01:28] <PriceChild> psyion, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, or just edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:28] <psyion> sorry pricechild    im new have no idea?
[01:28] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: It says "calculating size" - how long have you been waiting?
[01:28] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:28] <whileimhere> Is there a way to load a uber low load gnome? Particularly I just want to boot into one program called Wahcade.
[01:28] <PriceChild> psyion, what are you really trying to do?
[01:28] <psyion> get my 2600xt drivers working
[01:28] <meoblast001> hello
[01:29] <PriceChild> 2600?
[01:29] <negnin> !repeat | abc
[01:29] <PriceChild> nvidia 2600?
[01:29] <yigal> anonobomber: no, that is not what I want, I thought screen -r would be different than screen -R, perhaps allow me to exactly what I wanted and attach a process to screen, it doesn't do that though.
[01:29] <fulio> when i booted my laptop , it said " there was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon" and my apearance and my icons are back to the original. any help?
[01:29] <ubotu> psyion: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[01:29] <psyion> oki typed sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg at promt andpiut password
[01:29] <PriceChild> I wasn't aware there was such a card... :s
[01:29] <Jack_Sparrow> 6200?
[01:29] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: I always use K3B so I'm not sure how useful that is, but I'd try other discs just in case you've got a bad one
[01:29] <DShepherd> whileimhere, xfce is like a low gnome..
[01:29] <meoblast001> i read the manuals and searched google but i cant figure it out... i want to create a directory and upload a folder to my subversion. how do i do this?
[01:29] <abc> negnin: is that just gonna tell me how repeating a question makes kittens cry?
[01:29] <patbam> IntuitiveNipple: alright.
[01:29] <kevin__> psyion: strange. i think you might be better off going onto the ubuntu forums - do a search, and post a message if nothing comes up - it's easier to work through things away from the immediacy of irc
[01:29] <patbam> IntuitiveNipple: thanks
[01:29] <patbam> now iu just need to figure out how to kill the thing, heh
[01:29] <brad__> I don't think it's a bad disk, the question makes sense if you are trying to burn an image file to a data disk, as opposed to trying to burn the image.
[01:30] <arkanes> meoblast001: you don't "upload" things to subversion, but you can svn add a directory just as you would a file
[01:30] <ubotu> abc: 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
[01:30] <whileimhere> DSheperd: Yeah but I would like to totally avoid the desktop and have just Wahcade load.
[01:30] <psyion> kevin can i private chat with u ?
[01:30] <IntuitiveNipple> patbam: System > Administration > System Monitor
[01:30] <DShepherd> meoblast001, mkdir folder && svn add folder && svn commit -m "new folder" folder
[01:30] <meoblast001> arkanes: then how do i get my stuff there?
[01:30] <DShepherd> meoblast001, i think..
[01:30] <arkanes> whileimhere: you don't need to boot into gnome to run KDE apps
[01:30] <arkanes> meoblast001: you commit
[01:31] <meoblast001> arkanes: how do i do that?
[01:31] <abc> negnin: thanks for preaching. I've seen that message plenty.
[01:31] <ironfroggy> is there a defined way to add a public key to authorized_keys
[01:31] <arkanes> meoblast001: read the SVN tutorial, it'll take you through the things you need to know
[01:31] <ironfroggy> my sshd isnt accepting the key, but i can see that it is trying it. im wondering if my authorized_keys is wrong.
[01:31] <whileimhere> Is there a way to boot into an x environment and load just one program that loads the various games and still has sound and joystick support.
[01:31] <spyteman> can someone do "sudo modprobe lir + TAB" in terminal and tell me which lirc_ modules show up?
[01:31] <kevin__> psyion: yes, no probs.. not sure how we do that tho..
[01:32] <nzvip> How do I get sound to work without rebooting?
[01:32] <spyteman> talking about someone who hasnt messed with LIRC, need original installation information :)
[01:32] <psyion> i sent u a pm
[01:32] <psyion> can u see it?
[01:33] <sh3l1> well, guys. i'm installing ubuntu and (very likely) shooting myself in the foot
[01:33] <spyteman> anyone?
[01:33] <kevin__> psyion - er, can't see anything yet.. i'm using xchat
[01:33] <psyion> me too
[01:33] <negnin> abc: just keeping my promise
[01:33] <psyion> left hand panel?
[01:33] <abc> negnin: you're too kind
[01:33] <spyteman> psyion kevin__ could you please do "modprobe li" and then press TAB to complete and tell me what modules show up?
[01:33] <fulio> What does it mean when it says "There was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon" and my appearance changed and my icon.
[01:34] <psyion> modprobeli
[01:34] <meoblast001> arkanes: Aborted (core dumped)
[01:34] <whileimhere> What is "Failsafe Terminal" in the GDM?
[01:34] <brad__> lol
[01:34] <psyion> nothing?
[01:34] <brad__> spyteman: Module li not found.
[01:34] <meoblast001> whileimhere: its just like a terminal
[01:34] <meoblast001> whileimhere: as far as ive used it
[01:35] <fulio> What does it mean when it says "There was an error starting the GNOME settings daemon" and my appearance changed and my icon.
[01:35] <kevin__> psyion: nothing showing on LH panel (i'm using gnome xchat actually...)
[01:35] <DShepherd> sh3l1, make sure u have a backup foot :-)
[01:35] <psyion> can u click my name?
[01:35] <veynom> !keyring
[01:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about keyring - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:35] <Killer_hacker> boa noite pessoal algum sabe me disser como consigo validar dominios reais no velox tipo www.qlqrcoisa.com.br
[01:36] <negnin> abc: you want to tell fulio about repeat? you know the message by heart don't you?
[01:36] <NETabuse> If I have an avi file(divx encoded or something else) is there any good tools for re-encoding to ipod movie? for ubuntu :)
[01:36] <Kitche> fulio means gnome settings daemon most likely didn't start
[01:36] <brad__> Is there a way to access something in remote:/ from the shell?
[01:36] <whileimhere> meoblast001: What I am seeing is that when I log into GNOME and run say the MAME ROM called MORTAL KOMBAT I have no issues. When I am in the Failsafe Terminal I get everything but sound. Any ideas?
[01:36] <fulio> Kitche, how do i start it?
[01:36] <kevin__> psyion - yes, ok....!
[01:36] <meoblast001> whileimhere: use gnome
[01:37] <meoblast001> arkanes: Aborted (core dumped).... how do i fix this
[01:37] <markgreene> Hey guys. What's your prefered subversion client?
[01:37] <whileimhere> meoblast001 I get some slowdown and such when in gnome
[01:37] <psyion> add me to msn noda_17@hotmail.com?
[01:37] <ironfroggy> how can i manually verify that a public key matches a private key?
[01:37] <meoblast001> whileimhere: run /etc/init.d/gdm stop and tell me if the app works there
[01:37] <DShepherd> markgreene, the text based one that comes with ubuntu..
[01:38] <whileimhere> meoblast001 I do not understand
[01:38] <ffighter> hello, I'm trying to configure dual monitors on feisty
[01:38] <meoblast001> in SVN, what does Aborted (core dumped) mean?
[01:38] <devtrash> Has any succesfully used a Haupauge PVR350 + lirc + IRBlaster + Scientific Atlantic 2200?  Or does someone  know where there are some instrustions on doing so?
[01:38] <ironfroggy> i know the keys should be matches, but i have to figure out why its being rejected by the server.
[01:38] <markgreene> DShepherd: Forgive my ignorance. I did not know ubuntu came pre-installed with a subversion client. What's it called?
[01:38] <ffighter> first question is: My LCD monitor has the following line on its screen:  Option         "metamodes" "CRT-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0" - shouldn't it be LCD
[01:38] <DShepherd> markgreene, i didnt say it was pre-installed :-)
[01:39] <PriceChild> markgreene, it doesn't, install it with "sudo apt-get install subversion"
[01:39] <ffighter> ?
[01:39] <ironfroggy> markgreene: its called svn.. what else would it be called?
[01:39] <ffighter> or it doesn't matter
[01:39] <kevin__> psyion - ok, got you
[01:39] <peepsalot> how are serial ports accessed in Ubuntu? i have a new USB -> serial adapter that I'm not sure how to use
[01:39] <psyion> msg me?
[01:40] <ffighter> any suggestions?
[01:40] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, they get mapped to something similar to /dev/ttyUSB0
[01:40] <DShepherd> ffighter, nvidia-settings is a GUI way to do it..
[01:40] <devtrash> peepsalot, What make and model?
[01:40] <jrib> !ipod > NETabuse (read the private message from ubotu)
[01:41] <jpastore> hey so I'm having an unusual  issue.  I can create pptp connection to my office when I connect to my home network with a cable instead of wirelessly
[01:41] <markgreene> DShepherd: You said the one that "comes" with Ubuntu. So by that pre-installed is a given asumption. ironfroggy: Sorry. I don't know what else it would be called. I am new to subversion so, as I told DShepherd, ignorance is the name of the game.
[01:41] <ffighter> DShepherd, thanks
[01:41] <jpastore> is there somewhere I can specify that it's ok to use my wifi card
[01:41] <ffighter> DShepherd, but does that CRT there on my LCD monitor screen make any difference?
[01:41] <DShepherd> markgreene, sorry.. never meant to mislead you
[01:41] <markgreene> PriceChild: Thanks I will isntall it
[01:42] <DShepherd> ffighter, I dont know
[01:42] <markgreene> DShepherd: Forget it. I am being an ass to those that are helping. Forget about it.
[01:42] <markgreene> DShepherd: Thanks for the help
[01:42] <veynom> what is a keyring?
[01:42] <squarebottle> Good news! DistroWatch is back up and running!
[01:42] <DShepherd> markgreene, ok.. if you insist.. you ass! :-)
[01:42] <baconbits> Alright, I got it burned and it boots and everything. Will the disk be able to repartition my HDD or do I need to do that with a different program? And how can I do so safely without ruining my current XP partition?
[01:42] <DShepherd> !coc | DShepherd

[01:43] <ubotu> squarebottle,: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:43] <peepsalot> devtrash, this is the adapter: http://www.ftdichip.com/Products/EvaluationKits/TTL-232R-3V3-AJ.htm
[01:43] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, if you watch the /var/log/messages file while plugging in your device... you will see the device mapping:  "tail -f /var/log/messages"
[01:44] <veynom> !devil
[01:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about devil - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:44] <squarebottle> kitche: Aww, relax. I think a lot of the people in here would appreciate the little notice about DistroWatch, especially in such an inobtrusive form.
[01:45] <devtrash> peepsalot, I am not familiar with that one.  I know the Prolific convertor has kernel support
[01:45] <baconbits> Alright, I got it burned and it boots and everything. Will the ubuntu disk be able to repartition my HDD or do I need to do that with a different program? And how can I do so safely without ruining my current XP partition?
[01:46] <peepsalot> devtrash, yeah i thought that pretty much all serial adapters had some standard driver, but maybe not.  the mfg site has some driver downloads, but there are two options VCP and D2XX
[01:46] <peepsalot> i don't know what the difference is
[01:46] <devtrash> peepsalot, Ahh I see there is EXPERIEMENTAL support in kernel 2.6.22
[01:46] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, did you try my suggestion?
[01:47] <negnin> baconbits: It will recognize your xp partition, partitioning is done by the disc and even resizing is an option I believe
[01:47] <Poet_with_a_Gun> I'm gonna blab this out there:
[01:47] <devtrash> peepsalot, go to http://ftdi-usb-sio.osurceforge.net/
[01:47] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, yes, it keeps saying, detected, then disconnected, must it be connected to a device to work?
[01:48] <Poet_with_a_Gun> I unarchived the ubuntu GG version to a zip drive so I could try it. It's not booting :D What'd I do wrong:P
[01:48] <Kr0ntab> paste the output in pastebin...

[01:51] <Jose> hi. i'd like to download unbuntu to try it out on livecd but i'm afraid it might interfere with my ms os
[01:51] <devtrash> fulio, what error?
[01:52] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, any idea what it is doing?
[01:52] <DShepherd> Jose, ok
[01:52] <Jose> can anyone assure me that it won't
[01:52] <inertial> Jose: it won't unless you actually install it
[01:52] <astro76> Jose, just booting the LiveCD to try it won't affect your Hard drive at all
[01:52] <compilerwriter> Jose:  It will not interfere with your os.  The live cd won't even touch your hard drive
[01:52] <steel_lady> stefg, are you here?
[01:52] <mosno>   Jose: there's some installer which installs ubuntu as a file on your windows drive, not sure what its called
[01:52] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, well I see yer device is connecting as /dev/ttyUSB0 ...
[01:52] <booster_614> hey guys...how can i make packages run at start up ???
[01:52] <inertial> so how is support of other languages on ubuntu? is it easy to switch between keymaps?
[01:52] <fulio> devtrash, when i boot up my laptop it says "There was an error starting the GNOME settings Daemon" and now my appearance changed and my icons.
[01:52] <Jose> i mean downloading live cd to burn it later.  that itself won't interfere with my os?
[01:53] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, but... it disconnects like 3 seconds into it?  does it just keep doing this on it's own?
[01:53] <negnin> inertial: very easy
[01:53] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, yes, i only plugged it in once during that log
[01:53] <astro76> Jose, same as downloading any file, not at all

[01:53] <Jose> ok.  i'll try it out hope i can say goodbye once n for all to ms
[01:54] <booster_614> thaks guys
[01:54] <kitche> fulio, well you need to figure out why it's closing since that message doesn't help us to help you start gnome-settings in a terminal
[01:54] <Jose> thanks devtrash
[01:54] <steel_lady> guys I have very strange problem. my system freezes when I try to work in one particular folder in external hard disk
[01:54] <DShepherd> yeager, we dont support gnome 2.20 here.. ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:54] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, ah... have you tried using a different USB port?  I'm just wondering if this is a physical issue...
[01:54] <yeager> DShepherd: thanks
[01:54] <devtrash> peepsalot, Do you have ehci or ohci for the usb?
[01:55] <fulio> kitche, what you mean?
[01:55] <peepsalot> devtrash, uhci i think?
[01:55] <kitche> fulio, exctly as I said try running gnome-settings in a terminal to get a REAL error
[01:55] <devtrash> peepsalot, hmmmmm, I used to see a lot of errors like that when I used the ehci module.
[01:56] <fulio> kitche, bash: gnome-settings: command not found
[01:56] <ffighter> I'm having trouble trying to enable Xinerama, did everything through nvidia-settings
[01:56] <djlenoir> can't get my wireless keyboard and mouse to work after a reboot until i unplug the usb dongle and plug it back in. tried suggestions from the forums but didn't work... any ideas?
[01:56] <ffighter> it says it can't be enabled. If I try to enable it manually, the second monitor doesn't get any bars and I can't start any instance of the terminal on gnome!
[01:56] <ffighter> weird
[01:56] <ffighter> any suggestions?
[01:57] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, found it in a bug list... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/81915
[01:57] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, it looks like it does the same on other ports
[01:57] <ffighter> I've got a NVidia GeForce 5900XT
[01:57] <Kr0ntab> ah crap... maybe not..
[01:57] <kitche> fulio, gnome-settings-daemon is the command
[01:57] <Vagstar> :O
[01:57] <Vagstar> Bye.
[01:58] <brad__> Okay, how about if I ask this way? Is there any way to mount an ftp site?
[01:58] <Kr0ntab> may have jumped the gun...
[01:58] <devtrash> brad__, NFS
[01:58] <kitche> brad__, yes use fuse
[01:58] <fulio> kitche, fulio@fulio-laptop:~$ gnome-settings-daemon
[01:58] <fulio> The program 'gnome-settings-daemon' received an X Window System error.
[01:58] <fulio> This probably reflects a bug in the program.
[01:58] <fulio> The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
[01:58] <fulio>   (Details: serial 2159 error_code 2 request_code 149 minor_code 35)
[01:58] <devtrash> or fuse
[01:58] <fulio>   (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
[01:58] <fulio>    that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
[01:58] <fulio>    To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
[01:58] <fulio>    option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
[01:58] <brad__> agh
[01:58] <fulio>    backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

[02:00] <xtc> how can i give permissions to my user to use fusermount ?
[02:00] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, hmm, one comment there says it is related to pcmcia, if I remove these modules files, i don't need to reload the kernel or something?  it will automatically stop using them?

[02:01] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[02:01] <Kr0ntab> you don't want to delete the modules... you may just need to unload them...  if thats even the problem.
[02:01] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, do you lose the mouse when you reboot?
[02:01] <devtrash> peepsalot, sudo modprobe -r module_name
[02:01] <kepahe> can anybody help?

[02:07] <ffighter> Does anyone know if I can get a more complex behaviour with dual monitors? Currently, with twin view, I only get a "dumb" extension of the desktop. I would like to have an extension that would keep its windows on its taskbar
[02:07] <ironfroggy> does anyone have a clue what would cause, when a particular public key is sent to a server for authentication, why it would cause: Sep 17 23:54:50 sp1361 sshd[7717] : Received signal 15; terminating.
[02:07] <devtrash> wastrel, what troubles did you run into?
[02:08] <ffighter> maybe treat it as a virtual workspace
[02:08] <mattyboy> im good, i didnt have a question
[02:08] <negnin> !ion
[02:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ion - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[02:08] <kepahe> any sugestions?
[02:08] <goldbond> well i think my ubuntu install or computer is breaking as i type this. the first two times i tried to boot up, the there were goofy graphics problems. now ubuntu is rendering menus strangely and my background image is corrupted. what could be wrong? how can i fix it?
[02:08] <wastrel> devtrash:  never could get the irblaster to do anything to the cable box
[02:08] <mattyboy> cool
[02:08] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, hmm, it's not a module, but a service?
[02:08] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, read the last comment on that page...
[02:08] <devtrash> wastrel, argh.  Did you ever get anything working?  Another type of blaster perhaps?
[02:08] <wastrel> devtrash:  i could see the IR with digital cam, it would blink, but no config i tried would make the box do anything.
[02:09] <winbond> whats a quick way to navigate up directory tree in the console?
[02:09] <ironfroggy> should any normal circumstances ever cause a connection reset on authentication to an ssh server?
[02:09] <wastrel> devtrash:  i got the card capture working, and i could record, but i'd have to manually change channels on the box.
[02:09] <wastrel> (the cable box0
[02:09] <wastrel> ended up getting a tivo because my wife got sick of me fooling with it
[02:09] <ironfroggy> i mean, if there was something wrong with the key it should just prompt for password, right?
[02:09] <devtrash> wastrel, yeah that's where I am with it as well.

[02:09] <jrib> winbond: cd ..
[02:09] <goldbond> could i have a graphics card problem or could my files be corrupted or did i get a goofy update? why would my menus be rendered strangely with discolorations and static?
[02:10] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, the file /etc/udev/rules.d/85-brltty.rules  you may need to comment out a line or two.. looking for the line...
[02:10] <negnin> mattyboy: very nice basic windowmanager without overlapping windows and a focus on the keyboard rather than the mouse (anti carpal tunnel syndrome)
[02:10] <wastrel> devtrash:  if you have ir capture on your linux box, you can try recording directly from your remote
[02:11] <wastrel> devtrash:  that was going to be my next project but we got the tivo instead and scrapped it :] 
[02:11] <winbond> jrib, thank you , any other useful ones u know? im new
[02:11] <mattyboy> nokeyboard 4 me
[02:11] <Michael_Garvie> winbond: what would you like to do?
[02:11] <devtrash> wastrel, you mean the cable provied remote or the PVR350 remote?
[02:11] <jrib> winbond: cd -   takes you to the last directory you were in.  ~ is short for your HOME.  ~USERNAME is short for USERNAME's HOME
[02:11] <mattyboy> gnome=my friend
[02:12] <wastrel> devtrash:  you use a program that records the keys from the cable box remote
[02:12] <jrib> winbond: oh and just 'cd' takes you straight to ~
[02:12] <wastrel> then use that to generate your lirc config
[02:12] <winbond> Michael_Garvie, just want to learn how to quickly navigate the directories in the console
[02:12] <devtrash> wastrel, irrecord right?

[02:12] <mattyboy> dasher=very cool/fast text entry
[02:12] <winbond> jrib, nice, ty

[02:15] <ishock> jrib, it won't install cause of that
[02:15] <ishock> o
[02:15] <jrib> ishock: pastebin the output of 'sudo aptitude install eggdrop'

[02:16] <Michael_Garvie> lol
[02:16] <ishock> jrib, where does it install to?
[02:17] <jrib> ishock: shouldn't matter, but 'dpkg -L eggdrop' tells you where everything went

[02:19] <devtrash> wastrel, ok thanks
[02:19] <atarinox> jrib: by much?
[02:19] <jrib> ishock: you create it.  There's probably an example one in /usr/share/doc/eggdrop/ but there are a lot of websites that will generate one too if you search
[02:19] <wastrel> gl
[02:19] <jrib> atarinox: best to ask in #winehq
[02:20] <ishock> jrib, what file should I put it in? /usr/lib/eggdrop?
[02:21] <jrib> ishock: I don't think it matters, you just specify the path.  I've never used eggdrop though
[02:22] <jernster> can anyone suggest a good pdf editor?
[02:22] <wastrel> jernster:  i don't know how good but there's pdfedit
[02:22] <antler> jernster: acroreader (or something like that). it doesn't save edited text fields though
[02:22] <jernster> anything that will let me actually edit the pdf should suffice.  all i've found are readers.
[02:23] <jrib> jernster: if all else fails, you can import the pdf into gimp and draw on it
[02:23] <wastrel> i installed pdfedit for some reason i no longer recall but i don't think i ever used it
[02:23] <wastrel> it doesn't appear to be in the repos

[02:27] <cec> MasterShrek, actually this is a remote windows server I need to connect to. I have no control over what gets installed and I have not option but to connect via remote access to the desktop
[02:27] <runemaste644> put sudo before it panosru
[02:28] <panosru> i'm logged in with su on terminal and typed ./eclipse but still permission denied
[02:28] <MasterShrek> cec you need a vnc server program running to access it i believe
[02:28] <panosru> wastrel i mount it with GNOME partition editor
[02:28] <MasterShrek> panosru, is it executable?
[02:28] <runemaste644> are you admin?
[02:28] <wastrel> panosru:  type mount and check the flags for that partition
[02:28] <runemaste644> u mean gparted?
[02:28] <atarinox> would this be possible: dual boot windows and ubuntu w/ the ubuntu partition on an external hard drive?
[02:29] <cec> Ok, what do I use on the unbuntu machine?

[02:29] <cec> Great thanks MasterShrek
[02:29] <runemaste644> panosru: test
[02:30] <rgallego> anyone could help me a lil bit?
[02:30] <panosru> ok i see a list
[02:30] <MasterShrek> !ask | rgallego
[02:30] <ubotu> rgallego: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:30] <Scunizi> atarinox: yes.. but... I would disconnect all harddrives in the machine, install to the external, reconnect internal hd's, fix grub..
[02:30] <rgallego> ok, thank you....
[02:30] <Michael_Garvie> hehe
[02:30] <rgallego> first of all.... I have a toshiba laptop...
[02:30] <wastrel> panosru:  find the one you're having trouble with and look at the flags (in parentheses)
[02:30] <main___> anyone???
[02:30] <rgallego> the touchpad is really really really slow....
[02:31] <UncleD> I have a server at an ISP with confidential information on it. Is it possible to protect my server so that even with a LiveCD, someone cannot gain access to my machine?
[02:31] <jrib> cec: checkout 'tsclient' too
[02:31] <panosru> /dev/sdb1 on /media/disk type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[02:31] <runemaste644> How many ppl are in this huge chat?!!?
[02:31] <rgallego> I tried to speed it up
[02:31] <rgallego> at the default mouse configuration
[02:31] <rgallego> but it's still really slow
[02:31] <rgallego> what can i do?
[02:31] <meoblast001> if a USB Installer boots half way then stops saying some BusyBox thing than (inittransfs) or something like that, what did i do wrong
[02:31] <jrib> runemaste644: 1089
[02:32] <MasterShrek> rgallego, dont type like that, put everything on one line, its much easier to read
[02:32] <wastrel> panosru:  "noexec"  you can't run programs from that partition
[02:32] <cec> thanks jrib
[02:32] <Michael_Garvie> UncleD: usually that entails turning off cd boot in bios and password protecting the bios
[02:32] <rgallego> ok sorry...
[02:32] <MasterShrek> rgallego, as far as that i dont know, does it act the same using a usb mouse?
[02:32] <linuxpoet> Thought I would throw out that the PostgreSQL community is having a conference in October: http://www.postgresqlconference.org
[02:32] <panosru> wastrel, how can i make it executable?
[02:32] <invitado> hola
[02:32] <xCaLib3r> rgallego: is it the mouse? or is the system itself running slow?
[02:32] <panosru> if i edit the fstab file?
[02:32] <rgallego> I haven't tried that... I can't access a usb mouse at this moment
[02:32] <jrib> linuxpoet: thanks, but in the future please use #ubuntu-offtopic instead.  Thanks

[02:32] <panosru> and remove the no exec?
[02:32] <kravlin> hey. does anyone know a good video ripping software for Ubuntu?
[02:32] <devtrash> wastrel, holy crap!  when I run irw I get output
[02:33] <runemaste644> panosru: Linux cannot safely write to NTFS because NTFS gets fragmented and there is no defragmenter
[02:33] <wastrel> panosru:  unmount and remount.  maybe in the gui thing it lets you choose?  i dunno i use the command line for mounting usually
[02:33] <kravlin> I also need an editing software.
[02:33] <invitado> helloooooooooooooo
[02:33] <jrib> kravlin: rip from dvd? or?
[02:33] <wastrel> oh it's ntfs?
[02:33] <rgallego> is any alps touchpad driver out there?
[02:33] <Scunizi> invitado: caio
[02:33] <wastrel> i dunno from ntfs
[02:33] <MasterShrek> kravlin, dvdrip for ripping dvds, kino i believe is a video editor
[02:33] <runemaste644> panosru: get in a chat with only me
[02:33] <UncleD> Michael_Garvie: Thats the answer i was looking for. Thank you
[02:33] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, i added the lines to my bluetooth file, rebooted and no good. i am not sure i have the right bluetooth address though, what is the easiest way to poll that information please?
[02:33] <rgallego> btw... sorry about my english :P
[02:33] <panosru> wastrel, if i unmout it and then i mount it will i lose my files?
[02:33] <Michael_Garvie> UncleD: no problemo
[02:33] <hiways85> gsynaptics is nice touchpad driver
[02:33] <melvin> hola
[02:34] <kravlin> jrib: yeah. rip from dvd.
[02:34] <antler> MasterShrek: dvdrip rips, but doesn't compress, or does it?
[02:34] <rgallego> where can I have gsynaptics driver?
[02:34] <MasterShrek> i dont know antler
[02:34] <runemaste644> habla no espaol
[02:34] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple. I tried getting it from device manager
[02:34] <jrib> !restricted > kravlin (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:34] <fujin> !es
[02:34] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[02:34] <melvin> alguien habla espanol
[02:34] <sebastian> hi guys ... what's the easiest way to upgrade from feisty to gutsy (tribe 5)?
[02:34] <jrib> kravlin: kino like MasterShrek mentioned and pitivi are two video editors that I know of
[02:34] <panosru> runemaster644, yes
[02:34] <wastrel> panosru:  if you've made changes to the files on the partition they'll be synced up when you unmount.  when you remount they'll all be there
[02:34] <steel_lady> guys, hear this strangest thing: first I thought that it is the system, then I thought that it is the external disk. then I realized that it is one folder on external disk and when I copied that folder to my hard disk, the system is freezing just by opening the folder and not even touching files!
[02:34] <MasterShrek> k9copy is a good video prog too
[02:34] <kazol> MasterShrek: It doesn't work.
[02:35] <hiways85> find synaptic package manager n search for it
[02:35] <jrib> rgallego: it's in ubuntu's universe repository, use your favorite package manager
[02:35] <MasterShrek> kazol what doesnt work?
[02:35] <ishock> jrib how can I find eggdrop file?
[02:35] <Kanuha> how can I change ownership of a NTFS drive? Do I chown 666 username /media/WindowsXP ?
[02:35] <jrib> ishock: you need to create one
[02:35] <ishock> How?...
[02:35] <Scunizi> ishock: locate eggdrop
[02:35] <kazol> MasterShrek: k9copy-it requires an external DVD authoring app that I have, but cannot call a function for some reason.
[02:36] <ishock> Scunizi, I have /usr/share/doc/eggdrop and like /usr/lib/eggdrop
[02:36] <Kanuha> !ubotu chown Kanuha
[02:36] <MasterShrek> that doesnt mean it doesnt work, it just means it doesnt work for you
[02:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chown kanuha - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:36] <jrib> ishock: with the settings you want.  Google for 'eggdrop configuration', there are several websites that generate one.  Also, you may want to try #eggdrop
[02:36] <antler> Kanuha: what is it that you want to do with the ntfs drive?
[02:36] <Scunizi> ishock: and you want to find it?
[02:36] <antler> merely access it, or read from and write to it?
[02:36] <xCaLib3r> Is there anyway to adjust lcd brightness via keyboard shortcuts w/ Fiesty? This is a Vaio - not much hotkey support from them w/ Linux
[02:36] <kazol> MasterShrek: Same thing with k3b but it returns an error msg.
[02:36] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir: sorry, didn't see your message. Start a terminal and use "hcitool scan"
[02:36] <MasterShrek> k3b works great for me
[02:37] <kazol> MasterShrek: What did you do after installing it?
[02:37] <panosru> wastrel, ok i umount it and remount but still i get /dev/sdb1 on /media/disk type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) :(
[02:37] <MasterShrek> umm
[02:37] <runemaste644> !ubotu NTFS
[02:37] <Kanuha> antler, I have spreadsheets on a NTFS drive that when I open them with OO they are read only. I need to be able to write to them
[02:37] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:37] <antler> k3b takes 3.5 hours to rip a movie for me....
[02:37] <MasterShrek> run k3b
[02:37] <MasterShrek> derr
[02:37] <kazol> MasterShrek: You just ran k3b normally or clicked on the icon?
[02:37] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, no problem, tried that already and it says "Device is not available: No such device"
[02:37] <wastrel> panosru:  is there any configuration in that GUI mounting thing that lets you change the mount options?
[02:37] <MasterShrek> either way, it works fine
[02:37] <runemaste644> !panosru test

[02:38] <jrib> runemaste644: please stop
[02:38] <runemaste644> ok ill stop
[02:38] <kazol> MasterShrek: Others have told me I have to initially run it as root; I have, but keep getting error msgs.
[02:38] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir: okay, does "hcitool con" show the mouse connected?
[02:38] <MasterShrek> kazol, what kind of error messages? add your user to cdrom
[02:38] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir:  and the keyboard, of course!
[02:38] <steel_lady> can someone have any idea why would computer freeze over one folder?
[02:38] <Kanuha> antler, I already installed that and went through the configuration. The problem is that those files belong to root.
[02:38] <panosru> wastrel, yes there is but if i check the the box to make the drive executable it says me that i don't have this permission
[02:38] <runemaste644> its just the someonesscreenname: message thing doesnt work
[02:38] <kazol> MasterShrek: I'll try installing it again.
[02:38] <panosru> maybe if i logout and login as root?
[02:39] <runemaste644> no
[02:39] <runemaste644> linux cannot write to NTFS safely
[02:39] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, no it shows no connections... but i am using them and it shows up in device manager
[02:39] <runemaste644> NTFS fragments
[02:39] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir: that does seem strange
[02:39] <antler> runemaste644: i haven't had a problem, but then again it's only been a few TBs of data xfer
[02:40] <panosru> i will try it, brb
[02:40] <ishock> jrib, know any sites off the top of your head that generate a conf file for it?
[02:40] <runemaste644> antler: the runemaste644: message thing does NOT work
[02:40] <runemaste644> panosru:test
[02:40] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir: Are the BT devices working right now? If so, they ought to be reported by hcitool
[02:40] <suds> Hey, real quick, does Steam work on Linux?
[02:40] <winbond> anyone know a guide how to make webpages look better in firefox?  aka  , which fonts to use
[02:40] <antler> runemaste644: huh?
[02:41] <Kanuha> suds, yes
[02:41] <runemaste644> wait i have Konversation
[02:41] <jrib> ishock: I don't use any, so I can't recommend them.  Try googling 'eggdrop generate conf'
[02:41] <runemaste644> duh
[02:41] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, device manager lists BT Mini-Receiver with couple sub-entries of the same name with the mouse and keyboard listed one under each entry... yes, using both right now.
[02:41] <MasterShrek> wtf is eggdrop? i thought it was some kinda visualization
[02:41] <Kanuha> suds, through wine
[02:41] <MasterShrek> !eggdrop
[02:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about eggdrop - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[02:42] <antler> is what i thought
[02:42] <brasileiro-gauch> Hi! I use ubuntu feisty with special 3d effects active. Everytime I open a program, like firefox or xchat, the window height and width are bigger than my screen size. So I need to resize the window to use the program. But if I close it and start the same program again, the window back giant again! What can I do?
[02:42] <dv310p3r> hello
[02:42] <MasterShrek> brasileiro-gauch, not use desktop effects...or ask in #ubuntu-effects
[02:42] <dv310p3r> I have a few questions
[02:42] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, yes it is
[02:42] <brasileiro-gauch> How Can I tell to my window manager: I want my windows opening with no more than 800x600 pixels
[02:42] <antler> brasileiro-gauch: heheh. have you tried changing your screen resolution?
[02:42] <MasterShrek> !ask
[02:42] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:42] <Kanuha> brasileiro-gauch, install devilspie
[02:43] <jrib> brasileiro-gauch: I would file bugs against the window manager
[02:43] <xCaLib3r> Is there anyway to change / create keyboard shortcuts for LCD brightness w/ Fiesty?
[02:43] <runemaste644> !anything
[02:43] <ubotu> So, you wanted to lure me into saying I don't know anything about anything? Yeah, that would be funny, of course. Now leave me alone.
[02:44] <dv310p3r> I want to be able to cut and past a file from my home directory into the usr/local directory the only way i was able to do it was to change the login window settings to log in as root
[02:44] <realshiva> hi guys, i got problems using iptables as a gateway for my lan, i tryed iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -s 172.16.0.0/18 -j MASQUERADE
[02:44] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, i just installed bluez-utils, do i need to reboot before they will take effect maybe?
[02:44] <realshiva>  but it doesn't worl
[02:44] <MasterShrek> dv310p3r, learn to use the terminal and use sudo
[02:44] <Michael_Garvie> xCalib3r: depends on the system your talking about... if its a notebook the keys are bios based
[02:44] <dv310p3r> I am afraid of doing this becuase everyone on the internet makes it sound like the worst thing on the planet to do
[02:44] <IntuitiveNipple> djlenoir: It's a while since I did any BT/Feisty stuff, I've been using Gutsy for months and things have moved on alot with BT support

[02:46] <techie1> I had to remove ubuntu and left back with windows xp but have lost my ability to burn cd's with Nero. All the cd are there but I think I remove the partition for that fdrive

[02:46] <wastrel> techie1:  you can't burn cd's in windows?
[02:46] <djlenoir> IntuitiveNipple, ok will hold out another month or so then... i can live with resetting the usb device after every reboot until then. thanks again for your help.
[02:47] <melvin> hola
[02:47] <techie1> I meant all the C and Drive are there but Nero will freeze up because there is no space (I think)m allocated to that removable fdisk which I think is the one for the CD burners

[02:47] <Michael_Garvie> xCalib3r: i work on dells and they have the same sort of setup... the keys are not recognized in windows or ubuntu... there done throught the BIOS, but not switchable

[02:49] <brasileiro-gauch> I could be a problem with compiz & metacity integration ?
[02:50] <MasterShrek> annihilus, you may need to convert it to an iso, then mount it, i dunno how to though
[02:50] <wastrel> ffighter:  maybe msttcorefonts (multiverse repo)
[02:50] <Michael_Garvie> brasileiro-gauch: possibly... i dont run any extras due to low system specs

[02:52] <jrib> runemaste644: if you do that again, I'm going to have to ban you
[02:52] <baconbits> Howdy. My video card isn't natively supported by Ubuntu, so I have to use the fglrx driver. I am currently trying to install Ubuntu, but I can't seem to get anywhere. I boot from the CD, and install the driver, but according to the tutorial I read, I am then supposed to reboot for the driver to take effect or something, but rebooting when I'm only running from the CD throws away all of the changes I've made. What do I need to do?
[02:53] <runemaste644> ok i will seriously stop
[02:53] <ckin2001> newbi, you can change it in system -> preferences -> sessions
[02:53] <Kanuha> whats the command to change ownership of a file?
[02:53] <ckin2001> chown
[02:53] <cwgannon> dir2ogg anybody?
[02:53] <IdleOne> baconbits: you need to install ubuntu
[02:53] <jrib> !permission > Kanuha (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:53] <wastrel> baconbits:  easiest probably is to use the alternate cd (textmode installer)
[02:53] <Michael_Garvie> newbi: check under System-->Prefs-->Sessions
[02:53] <jrib> Kanuha: make sure you do not chown system files as that may break your system
[02:53] <Pelo> baconbits,  use the alternate install cd to install then you can add the driver after

[02:54] <ckin2001> eek
[02:54] <searayman> how can i get kde4 on ubuntu if i am a gnome feisty user?
[02:54] <runemaste644> is there a way i can prevent myself from doing that again by sending to every1 but ubotu?
[02:54] <ckin2001> try mount -o loop (filename) (mount point)
[02:54] <baconbits> Will the alternate install still help me resize partitions and stuff so that I can shrink XP's partition to make a partition for Ubuntu?
[02:54] <Pelo> searayman,  you'll have to ask in a kde channel
[02:54] <searayman> Pelo, no one responded?
[02:55] <Pelo> baconbits,  yes
[02:55] <IdleOne> baconbits: yes
[02:55] <brasileiro-gauch> hum! I understood  my problem now. If I resize my window to 300x300 (for example), close and open it again, it will start with the same 300x300 pixels. But, if I maximize and close it, it will start maximized but, if I unmaximize, it will stay with 1024x768 pixels and not the original 300x300
[02:55] <brasileiro-gauch> BUG!
[02:55] <baconbits> Awesome, thanks everyone.

[03:10] <runemaste644> IdleOne: It installs Ubuntu on a virtual disk
[03:10] <Pelo> Kanuha,  isthe drive mouned ?
[03:10] <runemaste644> IdleOne: Sort of like VirtualBox
[03:10] <Pelo> mounted

[03:11] <runemaste644> IdleOne: what do you mean EWWWW!?
[03:11] <Pelo> Kanuha,  try this then , edit fstab , copy the line from you other ntfs drive and change the /dev/... and the mount point
[03:12] <runemaste644> IdleOne: It works fine and I used it cuz i couldnt ditch WInblows
[03:12] <IdleOne> runemaste644: dont see why anyone would want a Virtual Ubuntu setup when the Real thing is great
[03:12] <Pelo> runemaste644,  he means that anyone installing linux from windows is missing the point

[03:12] <Scooley01> Man, downloading all 700mb all over again just for the text installer seems excessive :(
[03:13] <Pelo> Scooley01,  you'll know for the next time
[03:13] <IdleOne> Scooley01: it is worth having the CD on hand
[03:13] <Scooley01> Oh no, I understand the value of it, I'm just wondering why the text installer couldn't have been included with the main CD >_>
[03:13] <runemaste644> IdleOne & Pelo: You actually dual boot, not a virtual machine. It edits boot.lst and you have a half real install. You can also use LVPM to make it a real install

[03:14] <stepomaticc> hd:-*
[03:14] <Pelo> runemaste644, I know wubi is not a virtual machine  but a realy install is so simple

[03:15] <Scooley01> And for some reason the alternate is not downloading anywhere NEAR as fast as the other disc >:(
[03:15] <runemaste644> Pelo: it is not a VM. It makes a virtual disk and Ubuntu runs by itself
[03:15] <IdleOne> Scooley01: good things come to those who wait

[03:53] <niter3> any clue guys?
[03:54] <sylverfox> hi all
[03:54] <Sitherae> pelo: ahh found it ty

[03:54] <cganya> E: Couldn't find package sun-java5-jre
[03:54] <gerro> niter3: I just installed totem and every gstreamer file that isn't dev or dbg and mozilla-totem-plugin

[03:55] <ivan_> how do i make my account root because it says im not but im the only account
[03:55] <niter3> gerro: How does that help me?
[03:55] <niter3> :)
[03:55] <kitche> !sudo | ivan_
[03:55] <ubotu> ivan_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:55] <Pelo> cganya, menu >system > admin > software sources ,   in the first tab check every box,  in the third tab , check the backport box , close  and try again
[03:55] <niter3> I'm clueless to why mozilla is trying to use another player. If so, which player does mozilla use by default. I'll uninstall the bastard. :)

[03:56] <Kresjah> Hey! Anyone who can guide me through upgrading xorg-server 1.2.0 to 1.3=< ?
[03:56] <cganya> pelo, i dont have a "software source" option, perhaps i have a diffrent version?
[03:56] <BernieMac> !root | ivan_
[03:56] <ubotu> ivan_: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[03:56] <sylverfox> I see "ubotu" has nothing to say for me for Beryl
[03:56] <ari_stress> i'm burned out, i'm sicked n tired of my work. can anyone offer suggestion? :(

[03:57] <jpastore> is this not the right place to ask questions about networking and vpn connections?
[03:57] <Pelo> ari_stress,  this is a family freindly channel so I can't suggest mast...
[03:57] <jpastore> is there a better channel?
[03:57] <niter3> kitche: :) How can I tell what's opening .mov files?
[03:57] <MasterShrek> ari_stress, smoke some pot, youll feel better about everything, i promise
[03:57] <ari_stress> Pelo: it doesnt work anymore :(

[03:58] <jpastore> brb
[03:58] <jpastore> join #networking
[03:58] <Kresjah> Guess that's  no then
[03:58] <Pelo> jpastore,   /join ...
[03:58] <kitche> niter3, there should be a splash if it's xine, not sure if totem uses a splash or not but it would be either thoses two most likely by default
[03:58] <jpastore> thanks I slipped on the /
[03:59] <Pelo> Kresjah,  as you can see tis is a busy channel,  sometimes you nheed to repeat your query
[03:59] <Kresjah> Very well
[03:59] <Kresjah> Hey! Anyone who can guide me through upgrading xorg-server 1.2.0 to 1.3=< ?
[03:59] <cganya> pelo, sorry i'm such a bug, i know your so busy x.x but i cant find what your talking about, i opend synaptic but repositories is not on the list, the scrollable area on the right, right?
[03:59] <MasterShrek> why does ubuntu use totem, always wondered that cuz totem sucks
[03:59] <MasterShrek> or is that a gnome default?
[03:59] <Pelo> Kresjah,  noone in this channel I think , this is for ubuntu issues,  try to find an xorg channel
[03:59] <niter3> kitche: totem isn't installed.
[03:59] <niter3> kitche: I will check for xine
[03:59] <Pelo> master_of_master,  it's the gnome default
[04:00] <VanessaE> Hi all.  How do I tell the installer to *not* try to auto-detect the ide controller (make it stick with the "generic" driver).
[04:00] <VanessaE> ?
[04:00] <niter3> kitche: niether are installed. Only libraries
[04:00] <VanessaE> (and yes, I've already google'd to no avail :) )
[04:00] <niter3> kitche: So again that leaves me in the dark with no explanation to why and where it's trying to open these .mov files from.
[04:00] <niter3> urg
[04:00] <dv310p3r> Ok I went to that Java community page and it didn't help at all. So then i used the Add/Remove programs feature added Java through there, and still Java does not work, I even followed the instructions on the Java website to the T, and still nothing. I am at a complete loss
[04:01] <Pelo> VanessaE, it's probably covered in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org ( i donT' think you'll get an answer here)
[04:01] <ivan_> bernieMac: ok but i still cant right on my amsn folders!!
[04:01] <Pelo> dv310p3r, did you try installing sun-java5-jre using synaptic ?
[04:01] <kitche> niter3, right click the .mov file if you can and save it and then right click and properties it should tell you what is used to open them
[04:01] <Kresjah> Pelo: I know this is an ubuntu channel. I hoped there was an ubuntu friendly guide or something
[04:01] <niter3> kitche: okay
[04:01] <dv310p3r> I have not. Where is Synaptec
[04:02] <dv310p3r> Ignore that question
[04:02] <dv310p3r> It was stupid
[04:02] <dv310p3r> I found it
[04:02] <Pelo> Kresjah, ubuntu doesn'T upgrade package versions between releases only updates , it is possible that xserver 2 will be in gutsy , you might want to wait for it or try the tribe version,  but other then that ...
[04:03] <cganya> pelo, sorry, do you have too many people to help? ^.^;
[04:03] <Pelo> dv310p3r, always check in synaptic before installing anything
[04:03] <Pelo> cganya, no I'm still ok
[04:03] <VanessaE> the forums aren't of any use
[04:03] <barbie> hi, i m using gnu bignum library... it requires a lot of RAM. is there any way that i can show it that i have this much RAM even though i have not, like SWAP... but it must be shown as primary RAM not as swap space...
[04:03] <BernieMac> ivan_, Sorry, don't think I can help there. I'm pretty new to vista myself. I was fortunate enough to be able to answer your last question thats all lol.
[04:03] <ivan_> bERNIEmAC, OK OK THANKS MAN ANYWAYS

[04:04] <ubotu> jose: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:04] <cganya> pelo, i cant find the repositories thing in synaptic, its supposed to be on the right hand side list right? i have "all" highlighted on the left hand side

[04:05] <noelferreira> what application should i use to check 5.1 sound system?
[04:05] <niter3> kitche: well I found totem like you said. :) I removed it from synaptic, now nothing happens when trying to load the .mov
[04:05] <IdleOne> ivan_: trie using sudo
[04:05] <IdleOne> ?
[04:05] <cganya> pelo, ah there it is, sorry to hear about your fever, drinking lots of liquids?
[04:06] <VanessaE> I'm referring to the step the installer does where it loads four million IDE modules, this causes a kernel panic on the box I'm working with.
[04:06] <Pelo> cganya, I think you missed the joke
[04:06] <ivan_> IdleOne:mmm how do i copy files from a terminal??
[04:06] <MasterShrek> cp
[04:06] <VanessaE> right after you select your keyboard language/layout
[04:06] <IdleOne> ivan_: sudo mv file destination
[04:06] <IdleOne> or cp
[04:06] <cganya> pelo, probably :P i'm not used to the resolution, or the font size or something, makes reading a little more difficult, i didnt think i was hard at seeing
[04:07] <ari_stress> has anyone played warzone? my friend suggests it for me to cool down my burnout
[04:07] <gerro> niter3: if you want to just watch movies and don't care which media player you use it helps you
[04:07] <Pelo> cganya, laptop ? lcd screen ?  we'll fix that afterward
[04:07] <cganya> pelo, probably the decade old rear projector monitor now that i think about it
[04:07] <niter3> gerro: I would like mplayer.
[04:07] <strabes> has anyone upgraded gutsy tonight? what's wrong with gnome-terminal and the appearance window??
[04:07] <gerro> niter3: I sometimes use vlc for dvds and really weird formats
[04:07] <Pici> strabes: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy issues/questions please
[04:07] <MasterShrek> niter3, try xine, xine = :)
[04:07] <niter3> there is no reason it shouldn't be working at this point. I've even download the mplayer essential codecs and copied them to the proper directory.
[04:07] <IdleOne> strabes: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy
[04:07] <niter3> MasterShrek: i need it to work under mozilla
[04:08] <gerro> MasterShrek: getting codecs for xine sucks
[04:08] <Pelo> cganya, did you find the repository dialog  ?
[04:08] <MasterShrek> lies
[04:08] <cganya> pelo, my laptop runs xp, i ran a bad set of .exe's its now super malwared x.x i @#%@# it up soo bad, hope i can fix it
[04:08] <barbie> how to mount RAM?
[04:08] <gerro> barbie: umm try checking in /proc
[04:08] <barbie> that pretends to be in a file?
[04:08] <cganya> pelo, i clicked the respository option, havent really looked around in it, not sure what i'm looking for
[04:08] <IdleOne> barbie: you should be able to just install in machine and ubuntu will pick it up
[04:09] <Pelo> cganya,  check all the boxes in the first tab and the backport one in the third tab
[04:09] <bobbyyu> How do I set the class path for my Java (it's in /opt/jdk1.6.0_02/bin)
[04:09] <bobbyyu> ?
[04:09] <barbie> IdleOne: i wanna mount virtual RAM.... that is a file, and should not be swap. it should show me as primary RAM itself
[04:10] <Pelo> barbie, try checing on google or in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[04:10] <usser> bobbyyu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217936&highlight=classpath

[04:10] <barbie> googlevirtual ram in linux
[04:10] <cganya> pelo, i dont have any tabs... i have one zone called software sources, a list with one thing in it (CD Ubuntu 5.04 "horay hedgehog" (binary)) and it has a mini description under it, on the right i have a few buttons and below the list a couple more buttons
[04:11] <gerro> cganya: http://w32.clamav.net/
[04:11] <Pelo> cganya, what version of  ubuntu are you running ?
[04:11] <Pelo> cganya,  ignore gerro for the moment
[04:11] <cganya> pelo, i'm gonna assume 5.04
[04:11] <VanessaE> ...you know, I seem to recall a time when the ubuntu team expressly forbid statements that amount to "search the web" or "rtfm"
[04:11] <gerro> Pelo cganya: ignore Pelo for a moment
[04:12] <Pelo> cganya, not sure you wll have java on 5.04 maybe it is timefor you to install 7.04
[04:12] <gerro> cganya: wow you still using 5.04? didn't that like stop being supported at all several years back
[04:12] <cganya> gerro, heh, right so what is this you linked me to anyway? :P
[04:12] <gerro> cganya: just win port of AV I use on ubuntu for when friends share stuff to me
[04:12] <goose> howdy.. I'm getting an error upgrading, with nautilus-data.  The error is " trying to overwrite `/usr/share/gconf/schemas/apps_nautilus_preferences.schemas', which is also in package nautilus"
[04:13] <Pelo> cganya, at this point I think you need to download and install  the current release of ubuntu , this will make a lot of things eaiser
[04:13] <cganya> pelo and gerro, i got the install disk from a friend in germany, lemme see what the cd says
[04:13] <IdleOne> VanessaE: that rule still applies
[04:14] <gerro> Pelo: how's 7.10 I want to try that out on my lappy
[04:14] <a|K|a> can anyone recommend a video card under $75 that is good for compiz-fusion?
[04:14] <MasterShrek> gerro, 7.10 isnt released yet
[04:14] <MasterShrek> wait a month and it will be stable
[04:14] <Pelo> gerro, I have no idea I don'T mess with alphas or betas
[04:14] <gerro> MasterShrek: so no updating support ah okay, I was planning on doing that
[04:14] <OrTigaS> w00t.... after installing dapper to my external usb drive and finish with a little prob! now i'm finished with dapper upgrade to egdy eft!  next is upgrading to Feisty Fawn! :)  thanks guys here!
[04:14] <VanessaE> aka: probably not in that price range, maybe if you expand to say $125ish
[04:14] <usser> ak_: any nvidia, i tried 5200 worked like a charm
[04:14] <IdleOne> gerro: #ubuntu+1
[04:14] <MasterShrek> gerro, you could update, but its still dev
[04:15] <a|K|a> VanessaE: Ehat then?
[04:15] <usser> ak_: even mx400 performed decently
[04:15] <a|K|a> rally?
[04:15] <a|K|a> haha
[04:15] <a|K|a> wow
[04:15] <Kanuha> a|K|a, Nvidia GeForce 6600GT
[04:15] <gerro> Pelo: I was just going to try a few tricks I use on 7.04 on the 7.10 so I can give some tips to friends
[04:15] <VanessaE> my husband's GF4 MX400 handles google earth OK, so compiz shouldn't be a problem
[04:15] <cganya> pelo, nuts i cant find it. atm this is my only operating OS in my home, i mess it up, i have no computer
[04:15] <a|K|a> I have Ati x300 and I can't get it to run :\
[04:15] <a|K|a> do you think that should handle it?
[04:15] <gerro> MasterShrek: I got a second HD 250GB and a 4gb flash stick I never update just reinstall and backup
[04:16] <usser> a|K|a: any nvidia, i tried 5200 worked like a charm, even mx400 performed decently
[04:16] <Pelo> cganya, can you burn a cd ?
[04:16] <VanessaE> and it was in the $90 range I think, should be cheaper, but you'll probably want something nice and quick lest the 3d stuff start to get irritating later
[04:16] <MasterShrek> me 2 gerro, thats usually the best way to do it
[04:16] <usser> a|K|a: ati is usually a pain in the arse to set up
[04:16] <IdleOne> cganya: as long as you have a Ubuntu LiveCD you have an os you can run
[04:16] <niter3> wow this is fanatsic
[04:16] <a|K|a> yeah  I noticed :)
[04:16] <niter3> i can't stream dick all
[04:16] <niter3> :)
[04:16] <XsteelWolf> anyone using ubuntu ultimate
[04:16] <IdleOne> !ohmy | niter3
[04:16] <a|K|a> I will jsut get nvidia.. I want dual montior support anyways :)
[04:16] <ubotu> niter3: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:16] <cganya> pelo, yes, but i dont have any blank ones. only dvd's and this computer doesent have a dvd drive
[04:16] <VanessaE> my gf6800 handles GE and beryl well, it cost about $175 a year and a half ago, probably less now
[04:16] <Pelo> IdleOne,  pay attention cganya  just said he/she didn'T have the cd
[04:16] <gerro> MasterShrek: and if cdrom don't work shove HD into other comp then reconfigure xorg when you put it back
[04:16] <MasterShrek> niter3, where are you streaming from?
[04:17] <niter3> apple.com/trailers
[04:17] <gerro> MasterShrek: awesome tips wish they included in install faq
[04:17] <Pelo> cganya, you're up a creek then
[04:17] <niter3> MasterShrek: I get a blank white page when trying to stream
[04:17] <IdleOne> Pelo: cganya sorry missed that
[04:17] <slugzz> i need help installing ubuntu on my laptop and pc
[04:17] <cganya> idleone, i might have it around somewhere but that is as debatable as my memory
[04:17] <slugzz> the cd doesn't book
[04:17] <slugzz> boot*
[04:17] <MasterShrek> niter3, i dunno what to tell you, i dont really use .mov files, especially stream them
[04:17] <ruckc> in ubuntu how can i disable the cpu frequency changing on switching from battery to ac or ac to battery
[04:17] <IdleOne> cganya: cant you download it? where are you located i might have one I can send to you
[04:17] <gerro> slugzz: lol I just said if cdrom don't work move HD to comp where it does and install there then reconfigure xorg (graphics) so it works on other one
[04:18] <niter3> man, blive it or not,  ca set this up faster in Gentoo
[04:18] <gerro> slugzz: linux auto detects most hardware so doesn't matter which device installs to the HD
[04:18] <niter3> :)
[04:18] <niter3> Gentoo that's right
[04:18] <niter3> faster
[04:18] <ruckc> additionally how can i change the default cpu frequency governor?
[04:18] <Pelo> IdleOne, pay attention , no blank cds available
[04:18] <MasterShrek> ruckc, i know there is a way in the kernel config, but im pretty sure there is a piece of software somewhere out there
[04:18] <IdleOne> Pelo: please stop telling me to pay attention I already said sorry for missing that part. and btw slugs are gross
[04:18] <cganya> idleone, i could download it but i dont have any cd's. also i probably dont have a cd buring program i know how to use
[04:18] <ruckc> MasterShrek, i dislike compiling my own kernel in ubuntu, there has to be something tied to acpi that does it
[04:18] <Pelo> cganya,  where in quebec are you at ?
[04:18] <MasterShrek> gentoo = poo, i have better things to do than to sit and wait for my pc to compile every single thing i try to install
[04:19] <MasterShrek> slackware is where its at if ur not going with ubuntu
[04:19] <Kresjah> Anyone know of a channel that might be able to help with upgrading xorg-server?
[04:19] <cganya> man where did i put that fisking live cd thing, it was in the carboard thing, now where is that? >.<
[04:19] <gerro> MasterShrek: gentoo just for the compile curious debians
[04:19] <cganya> pelo, XD i'm in central ontario
[04:19] <slugzz> gerro, i have 2 partitions on my desktop, i'm running vista, when i try to boot from the cd from start, it doesn't work
[04:20] <MasterShrek> ruckc, i agree on that, i havent compiled a kernel in ubuntu yet, no need to really, but i would look on the forums because i think there was something in the kernel about being able to change cpu frequency using software
[04:20] <IdleOne> cganya: well cd's are cheap enough to get you can download and to burn it is simple enough to do
[04:20] <gerro> slugzz: open up bios while computer is booting (hit that weird key it mentions) and make sure boot order set to check cd for operating system first
[04:20] <Pelo> cganya, the live cd you have is probably 5.04 ,  you realy need to get your hands on a blank one and dl the current release , I don'T think you'll be able to get  java on the one you have now , it's too old and it's not suported anymore so you won'T be able to get any dependencies
[04:20] <pac1> I've got a disk with 15 partitions on it but I don't see the 15th partiton in  ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid
[04:20] <goose> I
[04:20] <Pelo> anyhow , I have to go,   later folks
[04:20] <daedalus__> hello, when trying to compile pcap i'm getting this errors, any ideas about how i can solve it? /usr/include/linux/wireless.h:1045: error: IFNAMSIZ was not declared in this scope
[04:21] <pac1> There's definitely a file system on /dev/sda15
[04:21] <slugzz> i haev pclinux cd, when that boots
[04:21] <slugzz> have*
[04:21] <gerro> slugzz: yeah vista sucks so bad they had to change boot order so people don't switch to linux, it that sad
[04:21] <MasterShrek> daedalus__, not sure what pcap is, but is it in the repos so u dont have to compile it?
[04:21] <cganya> pelo idleone, har har! found the cd's, i have install and live, version 5.04
[04:21] <slugzz> gerro, pclinux boots
[04:21] <pac1> I can mount sda15 using /dev/sda15, but I can't seem to find its UUID.
[04:22] <Flannel> pac1: blkid doesn't show it?
[04:22] <daedalus__> MAsterShrek: no, it isnt
[04:22] <slugzz> i'm booting it on my desktop rite now, it works but the ubuntu cd isn't booting
[04:22] <IdleOne> cganya: well you can do an install of that but I suggest you upgrade asap to the newest version without skipping releases.
[04:22] <MasterShrek> daedalus__, is there a debian package of it out there? that would be your best bet id say
[04:22] <Ubuntufan> does anyone know how to get an index.xml to be start page for apache
[04:22] <pac1> Flannel, thanks it does...
[04:22] <cganya> pelo, was java not avalible for ubuntu back then or is linux not backwards compatable?
[04:22] <MasterShrek> pac1, if u figure out how to find that uuid, let me know, ive cant seem to figure out my psp's uuid
[04:22] <Flannel> MasterShrek: blkid
[04:22] <VanessaE> ok, forums yielded nothing on my problem and as usual, google is just plain useless
[04:23] <IdleOne> cganya: java was available but there was no package.
[04:23] <MasterShrek> thx Flannel
[04:23] <IdleOne> cganya: pelo is gone btw
[04:23] <cganya> idlone, i imagine you cant just download and install the newer version of ubuntu, you have to use a CD?
[04:23] <pac1> VanessaE, What is the problem?
[04:24] <cganya> idleone, ah thanks for pointing that out
[04:24] <Jonny912> !myself
[04:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about myself - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:24] <MasterShrek> damn...uuid="0000-0000"
[04:24] <IdleOne> cganya: you need the cd so you can burn the .iso file that will allow you to install the OS
[04:24] <MasterShrek> that doesnt seem right
[04:24] <slugzz> gero: pclinux cd boots but the ubuntu cd doesn't
[04:24] <cganya> idleone, crud
[04:24] <MasterShrek> slugzz, what version of ubuntu?
[04:24] <daedalus__> MasterShrek: i dont know, how can i know if there is a debian package of that tools out there?
[04:24] <VanessaE> pac1: I am trying to install ubuntu onto an old PC, but it kernel panics after trying to auto-detect my IDE controller.  I need to disable this auto-detect feature (and stick with the "generic" driver) so I can proceed.
[04:25] <cganya> idleone, i have a file i downloaded from the java website though... i cant just use that?
[04:25] <cganya> idleone, that was my origonal question XD how do you use a .bin file
[04:25] <VanessaE> you know, the point where it tries to detect the cdrom device, where you see a bunch of ide-related modules being loaded on tty 4.
[04:25] <slugzz> MasterShrek, the latest version, i got it from the website today
[04:25] <MasterShrek> daedalus__, is libpcap going to work?
[04:25] <MasterShrek> dunno what to tell u slugzz i dont know how to change boot option in the new one
[04:26] <IdleOne> cganya: you have 5.04. install that then run the update manager and it will tell you there is a newer version and keep upgrading untill you get to 7.04 should take a total of about 6 hours maybe more to complete.
[04:26] <piezasdeaocho> Alguien que hable espaol?
[04:26] <IdleOne> cganya: I dont remember how to install java manualy :/
[04:26] <MasterShrek> !es
[04:26] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:26] <Plouj> is /usr/local where I should install stuff that's not under aptitude's control?
[04:26] <IdleOne> !es | piezasdeaocho
[04:26] <MasterShrek> !java
[04:26] <ubotu> piezasdeaocho: please see above

[04:27] <cganya> idleone, update manager, ooo fun
[04:27] <Invisionfree> Anyone here know eggdrop bots real well?
[04:28] <mneptok> Invisionfree: what do you want to know?
[04:28] <cganya> trpr, no offense, but that be moonspeak, not 48 hours ago i had never needed to use a linux machine
[04:28] <Invisionfree> How can I make it log in real time, so as soon as something is said, it writes to the log
[04:28] <pac1> VanessaE, Isn't that something you would set in the kernel config?
[04:28] <Plouj> or put differently, where should I install stuff from source such that it is accessible to all users and doesn't disturb aptitude?
[04:28] <IdleOne> cganya: well Im off for the night. good luck
[04:29] <MasterShrek> Plouj, /usr
[04:29] <daedalus__> MasterShrek: Do you think i need libpcap?
[04:29] <IdleOne> nite folks
[04:29] <cganya> idleone, waiit
[04:29] <VanessaE> pacl: I'm just trying to get through the installer itself, I haven't even got to the point where I could roll my own kernel yet.
[04:29] <IdleOne> what?
[04:29] <joebob777as7> is there an easy way to make it so no users can see other user's documents?
[04:29] <Plouj> MasterShrek: not /usr/local?
[04:29] <cganya> idleone, where is the update manager real quick
[04:29] <trpr> cganya: the first part 'file somefile' is a command. run it to determine what kind of file you have
[04:29] <Invisionfree> mneptok, any idea?
[04:29] <MasterShrek> that should work too Plouj
[04:29] <PKdoR> how can i change the color of the font in my title bar/menus guys?
[04:29] <IdleOne> cganya: System>Administration>....
[04:29] <trpr> cganya: and provided its identified as a script, run it with sh ./yourfile
[04:29] <MasterShrek> daedalus__, what is pcap? on debians site the have libpcap, but i didnt see just pcap
[04:29] <Plouj> MasterShrek: looks like there's already a lot of stuff installed in /usr/bin, but nothing in /usr/local/bin (on a new Ubuntu install)
[04:29] <VanessaE> in gentoo, I pass "nodetect" on the kernel/boot loader command line and it causes that distro's installer to skip that ide auto-detect step (among others)
[04:30] <VanessaE> figured ubuntu/debian-installer had the same feature
[04:30] <cganya> trdr, umm... run... thats a command prompt thing right?
[04:30] <trpr> cganya: on the other hand if you can't get to the prompt to type in those commands just forget i mentioned it ;) im sure there are easier ways to install java
[04:30] <MasterShrek> Plouj, it wont matter really, but if there isnt anything in /usr/local i would put it there so u can easily find it if u need to remove it
[04:30] <lymeca> I just booted off Feisty Desktop install on my Dell Inspiron E1505 with an ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 and X11 can't start
[04:30] <Plouj> MasterShrek: that's why I'd choose /usr/local
[04:30] <Plouj> thanks
[04:30] <daedalus__> MasterShrek: yeah beacuse pcap is a tool developed by the author of a book, but let me check
[04:30] <lymeca> xorg.conf is set to use vesa
[04:30] <pac1> VanessaE, so its the Ubuntu installer that's crashing?
[04:30] <lymeca> but it doesn't work!
[04:30] <cganya> trdr, ^.^ sorry, i grew up on windows, started with win95, so i dont know my way around a command promt window
[04:30] <VanessaE> yep
[04:31] <cganya> idleone, thanks
[04:31] <VanessaE> or more specifically, the kernel itself panics because the installer tries to auto-detect my ide devices by loading a bunch of kernel modules.
[04:31] <MasterShrek> lymeca, edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and chagne the driver to vesa, afterwards start working on installing ati's driver (pain in the ass)
[04:31] <IdleOne> cganya: np
[04:31] <mneptok> Invisionfree: there's a LOGFILES section of the config that looks like a likely spot. i don't use any such syntax with my bots, though.
[04:31] <zcat[1] > Funny, ISTR win95 and win98 both had DOS underneath...
[04:31] <lymeca> MasterShrek: It was set to use vesa
[04:31] <Invisionfree> mneptok, it;s not workign tho
[04:31] <MasterShrek> nvm lymeca i didnt see that
[04:31] <lymeca> But I haven't installed Ubuntu yet
[04:31] <VanessaE> so I need to prevent the mass auto-loading of those modules if possible.
[04:31] <mneptok> Invisionfree: did you rehash/restart?
[04:31] <lymeca> This is just booting off of Feisty install disc
[04:32] <cganya> wow ok not good
[04:32] <lymeca> X11 can't see my video card or something
[04:32] <Invisionfree> Yes mneptok
[04:32] <cganya> my version isnt supported so it wont let me upgrade it through the update manager >.<
[04:32] <daedalus__> MasterShrek: well, it worked, i have that installed, but it appears its only a problem with the header of ubuntu
[04:32] <mneptok> Invisionfree: sorry, like i say, i don't need that feature, so ....
[04:32] <supaneko> I have Ubuntu and XP on two seperate hard drives but for some reason the system always boots to the second (XP) drive.
[04:32] <DarkJesus> Hi
[04:32] <MasterShrek> daedalus__, try apt-get install build-essential, it should install headers and stuff
[04:32] <joebob777as7> is there an easy way to make it so no users can see other user's documents?
[04:33] <supaneko> I have re-installed grub numerous times but to no avail. Anyone have any suggestions?
[04:33] <DarkJesus> Does anyone know if conky can be made to support Japanese characters?
[04:33] <daedalus__> MasterShrek, ok, let me check
[04:33] <mneptok> joebob777as7: that's what permissons are for
[04:33] <jetscreamer> supaneko: check the bios?
[04:33] <jetscreamer> boot order?
[04:33] <supaneko> Well, I did. But it only gives me an option to boot "hard drives" second but not which one.
[04:33] <PKdoR> cansomebody assist with a font isue? please
[04:33] <MasterShrek> supaneko, take the xp drive, and apply a sledge hammer
[04:33] <ruckc> supaneko, check your bios and ensure that the first harddrive is set to boot first, secondly, install grub to the second harddrive's mbr
[04:33] <MasterShrek> problem solved
[04:34] <MasterShrek> PKdoR, whats the problem?
[04:34] <joebob777as7> mneptok, i know but how do i make it default for all users? i'm going to create 50+ users
[04:34] <cganya> well at least the web browser works, suppose that will have to do for tonight
[04:34] <supaneko> If I install grub to the second HD, will it destroy with NT loader or will it be OK?
[04:34] <pac1> VanessaE, so its the installer's kernel that panics.  Can you somehow run the ubuntu installer under gentoo?
[04:34] <mneptok> joebob777as7: /etc/skel
[04:34] <scalawag> Can anyone tell me how to erase a CD/RW in ubuntu?  Anything in the base repos?
[04:34] <joebob777as7> mneptok, ?
[04:34] <ruckc> supaneko, it shouldn't, and grub will boot winxp easier than xp booting linux
[04:35] <VanessaE> pac1: Nope.  Like gentoo, ubuntu is a live CD, so I can't just yank it out
[04:35] <jetscreamer> man cdrecord
[04:35] <mneptok> joebob777as7: ask Google about skel directories :)
[04:35] <PKdoR> ! i would like to  change the font color in my titlebar/menue
[04:35] <supaneko> Well, I'm off to try it. Thank you ruckc.
[04:35] <ruckc> supaneko, np
[04:35] <Jon040404> Hey I have 3 different user profiles on Ubuntu and I can't copy files from one user to the other... can someone tell me why?
[04:35] <VanessaE> scalawag: k3b can do that for you
[04:35] <joebob777as7> mneptok, i know what it does but how does it help me for permissions to every user's home directory?
[04:35] <scalawag> thank you  Vanessa
[04:35] <NemesisD> are there any tools for ubuntu that analyze disk space usage?
[04:36] <NemesisD> like how much space each folder uses
[04:36] <nomasteryoda> Jon040404, because users data is protected from cross-contamination..
[04:36] <VanessaE> scalawag: but normally, you don't need to explicitly erase it - just overwrite it with new material.
[04:36] <mneptok> joebob777as7: skel contains the default contents of a new user's ~/. so chmod skel.
[04:36] <VanessaE> NemesisD: du
[04:36] <Jon040404> so how can I change it?
[04:36] <MasterShrek> PKdoR, i have a program called gnome-color-chooser, i dont know if i got it from the repos though, if its not in there check gnome-look
[04:36] <nomasteryoda> Jon040404, but you can change permissions to a group level for each home folder
[04:36] <scalawag> oh, ok, Thanks again Vanessa
[04:36] <mneptok> Jon040404: you don't. it's a crazy idea.
[04:36] <Sitherae> Does anyone know how to install AWN?
[04:36] <VanessaE> NemesisD: or specifically,   du -h /path/to/check
[04:36] <nomasteryoda> lol
[04:36] <goose> I'm getting an error trying to 'apt-get update' with nautilus-data.  I'm getting a deps issue with "apps_nautilus_preferences.schemas', which is also in package nautilus"
[04:36] <supaneko> OK, one quick question... How do I find out what name Linux has given to the XP drive?
[04:36] <Jon040404> so... will changing the permissions allow me to copy files?
[04:37] <PKdoR> !MasterShrek ok
[04:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mastershrek ok - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:37] <mneptok> Jon040404: users should not be able to read and write to each other's homes
[04:37] <nomasteryoda> !permissions | Jon040404
[04:37] <joebob777as7> mneptok, that won't work
[04:37] <ubotu> Jon040404: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[04:37] <Jon040404> well is there a folder that can be shared between all users?
[04:37] <Jon040404> or a way to set one up?
[04:37] <nomasteryoda> Jon040404, you can do that...
[04:37] <mneptok> joebob777as7: works for us. but we use LDAP, so that may change things.
[04:37] <Jon040404> is there a guide to doing that somewhere?
[04:38] <PKdoR> !MasterShrek what universe?
[04:38] <nomasteryoda> http://www.howtoforge.org/linux_file_permissions
[04:38] <MasterShrek> Jon040404, sudo mkdir /shares && chmod 777 /shares
[04:39] <nomasteryoda> Jon040404, what MasterShrek says... that is simple
[04:39] <ice109> how can i share folders in (x)ubuntu
[04:39] <Jon040404> ok i'll give it a try
[04:39] <Jon040404> thanks for the help
[04:39] <mneptok> Jon040404: sudo mkdir /home/shared && sudo chown -R root:users /home/shared/ && sudo chmod -R 775 /home/shared/
[04:39] <nomasteryoda> same way ice109 ...
[04:39] <NemesisD> vancomycin, is there any way to sort by size or something? I don't need to see any of the really small files
[04:39] <NemesisD> whoops, VanessaE rather
[04:39] <ice109> nomasteryoda well how
[04:39] <PKdoR> ! i see "gnome-clearlooks-gperfection2-thetheme"
[04:39] <MasterShrek> NemesisD, in nautilus?
[04:39] <ron1n> hello all
[04:39] <ice109> thats why i used the () because i figured instructions for either one would work
[04:39] <nomasteryoda>  sudo mkdir /home/shares && chmod 777 /home/shares
[04:39] <VanessaE> NemesisD: pipe the output through sort ;)
[04:40] <VanessaE> NemesisD:   du -h /path/to/check |sort -n
[04:40] <ice109> whats chmod
[04:40] <MasterShrek> !gnome-look | PKdoR
[04:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gnome-look - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:40] <nomasteryoda> ice109, change mode... ... means set permission level
[04:40] <VanessaE> though that's not really useful with the -h parameter
[04:41] <ice109> and 777 is?
[04:41] <VanessaE> (sort doesn't know that du's output means anything special)
[04:41] <mneptok> ice109: "not a great idea" ;)
[04:41] <supaneko> OK, I noticed that the XP drive (sdb) has the boot flag set to it. How do I simply change the boot flat to the first hard drive?
[04:41] <MasterShrek> ice109, read/write/execute for owner, group, and others
[04:41] <ice109> and how do i find this folder on another computer?
[04:41] <NemesisD> VanessaE, so omit the -h?
[04:41] <MasterShrek> 644 is read/write for owner, and read for group and others
[04:41] <PKdoR> ! i dont see it
[04:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i dont see it - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:41] <VanessaE> yeah
[04:42] <VanessaE> all -h does is give you nice measures like "1M" instead of "1048576" and similar.
[04:42] <nomasteryoda> ice109, that means all users
[04:43] <VanessaE> if that doesn't looks right, try -g instead of -n
[04:43] <ice109> how do i find this folder on another computer
[04:43] <nomasteryoda> oh, wait you mean from pc to pc
[04:43] <VanessaE> (I'm a little rusty on how the two are displayed)
[04:43] <ice109> yes
[04:43] <nomasteryoda> ice109, hang on that would be using samba or similar
[04:44] <nomasteryoda> samba is most compatible...
[04:44] <nomasteryoda> !samba
[04:44] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[04:44] <ice109> i dont need to go to windows computer, my other computer is also xubuntu
[04:44] <nomasteryoda> ok
[04:44] <nomasteryoda> well that is easy
[04:44] <nomasteryoda> hang on
[04:45] <nomasteryoda> ice109, gksu shares-admin should get you going
[04:45] <nomasteryoda> run on both systems
[04:49] (meTed/#ubuntu) greetings all; what is the easiest way to add files to a data disc?
[04:49] (nomasteryoda/#ubuntu) k3b
[04:49] (un_dave/#ubuntu) VanessaE, ok, so i'd try dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/loop0 (i have some images setup for raid testing)
[04:49] (slugzz/#ubuntu) anybody know how i can boot the new ubuntu from cd?
[04:49] (zcat[1] /#ubuntu) meTed: cp ?
[04:49] <fungos> what is ehci_hcd?
[04:49] (nomasteryoda/#ubuntu) gnomebaker
[04:49] (nomasteryoda/#ubuntu) also works...
[04:50] (nomasteryoda/#ubuntu) usb drive i think
[04:50] (VanessaE/#ubuntu) un_dave: yeah, that should generally work so long as the loop device points to just one physical disk
[04:50] (ice109/#ubuntu) how do i look up my own ip address?
[04:50] (un_dave/#ubuntu) VanessaE, how much would that write? would it overwrite the whole partition?
[04:50] (zcat[1] /#ubuntu) data disk == CDR?
[04:50] (nomasteryoda/#ubuntu) ice109,  ifconfig
[04:50] (VanessaE/#ubuntu) it'll keep writing until you stop it or it reaches the end of the disk or partition
[04:50] <MasterShrek> ice109, if you are looking for your external ip go here: www.whatismyip.com
[04:50] <pac1> Vanessa,E, nothing specific, but I was thinking you could mount the Ubuntu disk under a running gentoo, maybe a rescue disk or something.  Then invoke Gentoo's installer from there.  Something like what I've been doing from the other side... building a gentoo partition while in ubuntu. on another partition.
[04:50] <DM|> zcat[1]  have a repo for me for liblame?
[04:51] <nomasteryoda> ice109, if you install nmap, you can run... sudo nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24 to search your whole subnet for all systems ... quite handy
[04:51] <zcat[1] > !mp3 | DM|
[04:51] <ubotu> DM|: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:51] <VanessaE> pac1: ew.
[04:51] <un_dave> VanessaE, Cool. they're just 256mb files on disk, so that shouldnt take long
[04:51] <zcat[1] > should be in there somewhere..
[04:51] <VanessaE> I guess I could do that though
[04:51] <pac1> VanessaE, yeah...
[04:51] <ice109> ok so now i'm having a problem on the other computer, when i run shares-admin it tells me sharing services aren't installed and i hit installed services and it just pops up the same dialog
[04:51] <zcat[1] > !info liblame
[04:51] <ice109> doesn't install the services
[04:51] <ubotu> Package liblame does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:51] <pac1> VanessaE, but its an old box...
[04:51] <meTed> i have a disc with mp3's and i just want to add some more to it.  when i try and drag'n'drop with nautilus it says i don't have permission
[04:51] <zcat[1] > !info lame
[04:51] <un_dave> VanessaE,  how would i make it just write 1mb of random data?
[04:51] <ubotu> lame: LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.96.1-2ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 260 kB, installed size 696 kB
[04:52] <VanessaE> un_dave: dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/hdxx count=1024 bs=1024
[04:52] <pac1> gotta be a simpler way...
[04:52] <PKdoR> ! it seems the gnome-color-chooser has been taken of or something
[04:52] <VanessaE> where bs means 'block size", thus 1024 1K blocks = 1MB.
[04:52] <Jon040404> ok.... I made a shared folder but it says i don't have permission to execute when i try to copy a file
[04:52] <DM|> zcat[1]  linking the same thing twice to me is great but that info doesnt solve my problem
[04:52] <un_dave> Vanessa, thanks! I'll try it tonight
[04:52] <zcat[1] > Jon040404: make it world-writeable as well
[04:53] <nomasteryoda> MasterShrek, the network-tools also does that
[04:53] <Jon040404> how  do i do that?
[04:53] <ice109> anyone?
[04:53] <zcat[1] > Jon040404: properties
[04:53] <ice109> i'm having a problem on the other computer, when i run shares-admin it tells me sharing services aren't installed and i hit installed services and it just pops up the same dialog
[04:53] <zcat[1] > Jon040404: right click, properties, permissions.. somewhere in there :)
[04:53] <PKdoR> is there any other way of achiving this?
[04:53] <nomasteryoda> ice109,  you need to install samba or nfs
[04:53] <Jon040404> it says i'm not the owner and can't change the permissions
[04:53] <nomasteryoda> samba is easy
[04:54] <nomasteryoda> it uses CIFS .. and is faster than windows samba sharing
[04:54] <zcat[1] > DM|: install lame package, it will install the libraries needed for mp3 encoding, I think other programs like audacity will use them automatically once they're available
[04:54] <VanessaE> un_dave: just be sure you don't overwrite an actual disk you want to keep
[04:54] <nomasteryoda> between 2 linux boxes
[04:54] <ice109> yes well shares-admin program isn't doing it
[04:54] <nomasteryoda> ice109, sudo aptitude install samba
[04:54] <zcat[1] > DM|: or just lame source.wev dest.mp3 once you have lame installed
[04:54] <ice109> yes i was just about to try that
[04:54] <DM|> zcat[1]  lame is already the newest version.
[04:54] <Jon040404> everything in properties->permissions is greyed out
[04:55] <zcat[1] > DM|: well that sucks.. No idea then. that's all I did (as far as I can remember) and it all works for me..
[04:55] <DM|> zcat[1]  all that creates is a file with a bunch of static
[04:56] <zcat[1] > Jon040404: you must have created the directory as some other user? Root?
[04:56] <ice109> nomasteryoda: no candidate version for samba found
[04:56] <nomasteryoda> just second
[04:56] <un_dave> Vanessa, k. it's all a test system at the moment, so it shouldn't matter too much
[04:56] <Jon040404> maybe...
[04:56] <Jon040404> i don't know what i'm doing in terminal much yet
[04:56] <Jon040404> still learning
[04:57] <Jon040404> i'm logged in as me not root
[04:57] <zcat[1] > Jon040404: sudo chown jon shared (or whatever your user and directory name are)
[04:57] <fyrestrtr> ice109: what release are you running?
[04:57] <ice109> feisty
[04:57] <Jon040404> OOOOOOh
[04:57] <ice109> 7.04
[04:57] <Jon040404> dug
[04:57] <Jon040404> duh
[04:57] <fyrestrtr> ice109: and you don't see samba in your available packages?
[04:57] <ice109> under package manager?
[04:57] <fyrestrtr> yes.
[04:57] <ice109> or installed packages?
[04:57] <ice109> im not running ubuntu
[04:57] <ice109> im running xubunut
[04:57] <zcat[1] > jon: your terminal prompt ends with $, not #, right?
[04:57] <nomasteryoda> ice109, run this command ... sudo apt-cache search samba
[04:57] <fyrestrtr> ice109: it doesn't matter
[04:57] <craigbass1976> I have an internal intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG (according to lspci) and I get a message about restricted drivers at boot.  modinfo ipw3945 give me a bunch of stuff  don't understand, but I think that means the module for this NIC is installed.  Why won't it work?
[04:58] <WaltzingAlong> ice109: gotcah
[04:58] <Jon040404> so whats the code i need to make a shared folder again?
[04:58] <meTed>  i have a cd-r with mp3's and i just want to add some more to it.  when i try and drag'n'drop with nautilus it says: you don't have permission to write to this folder; when i try it with gnomebaker, it says "failed to burn." any ideas?
[04:58] <fyrestrtr> nomasteryoda: no need for sudo
[04:58] <nomasteryoda> ohk
[04:58] <nomasteryoda> correct... just habit from other distr
[04:58] <nomasteryoda> o
[04:58] <fyrestrtr> craigbass1976: have you installed the restricted drivers?
[04:58] <craigbass1976> It installed during ubuntu install.  It's a fresh install
[04:58] <zcat[1] > Jon040404: normally just right-click and create folder, then right-click the new folder and go to properties, permissions, make it writeable by everyone.... then right-click again, sharing, share by samba/nfs as you require..
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> craigbass1976: system > administration > restricted drivers manager
[04:59] <ice109> 3 relevant packages, smbclient, libssomethingsomething and a lan manager
[04:59] <ice109> intall all 33?
[04:59] <EbilPhish> mkdir ; cd ; pwd
[04:59] <ice109> install all 3?
[04:59] <craigbass1976> fyrestrtr, yep; been there
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> ice109: no, just samba
[04:59] <ice109> samba common?
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> craigbass1976: and does is show anything not installed?
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> ice109: no, just samba
[04:59] <Jon040404> when i right click create folder is greyed out though...
[04:59] <Rabbitbunny> I'm wondering if I should be problem free burning a  7.04 CD to run as LiveCD on a Gateway GT5404 Desktop ( http://www.gateway.com/retail/gt5404.php )
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> ice109: it will fetch the necessary ones.
[04:59] <craigbass1976> fyrestrtr, it says enabled
[04:59] <craigbass1976> fyrestrtr, I mean "in use"
[05:00] <fyrestrtr> craigbass1976: do you have a hardware killswitch on your laptop?
[05:00] <Jon040404> when i right click "create folder" is greyed out
[05:00] <zcat[1] > Jon040404: that would mean the folder you're already in is not yours, and/or you don't have permission to create a folder in it.
[05:00] <fyrestrtr> Rabbitbunny: if it has more than 256 RAM, livecd should run smoothly.
[05:00] <Jon040404> but i'm in the home folder...
[05:01] <Rabbitbunny> fyrestrtr: Cool.
[05:01] <ice109> there is no package just called samba
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> Jon040404: you need to be in /home/yourusername/ folder
[05:01] <craigbass1976> fyrestrtr, oh my God... That was so dumb...
[05:01] <zcat[1] > Jon040404: ok, beyond me..
[05:01] <ice109> theres samba-common and smbclient
[05:01] <Rabbitbunny> ice common
[05:01] <ibilic>  I have a non-initialized hard disk, I think it is called /dev/sdb
[05:01] <ibilic> how do I format it?
[05:01] <craigbass1976> fyrestrtr, although, to say something on my behalf... I've never owned a laptop with such a switch. :)
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> ice109: then common, should be you have a package called samba
[05:01] <ibilic> I just want 1 large partition
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> !info samba
[05:01] <ubotu> samba: a LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2 (feisty), package size 3262 kB, installed size 7992 kB
[05:02] <ice109> ahh im dumb, its already installed
[05:02] <zcat[1] > Jon040404: oh .. root owns /home :)
[05:02] <lymeca> vesa isn't finding any modes for my ATI Mobility X1300 on the Feisty Desktop install CD
[05:02] <lymeca> help?
[05:02] <ice109> all of those packages are already installed
[05:02] <fyrestrtr> ice109: then what is the issue?
[05:02] <Rabbitbunny> ice109: configure them, there's a how-to on the forums.
[05:02] <ice109> when i run gksudo shares-admin it says they're not
[05:03] <fyrestrtr> ice109: it says what are not?
[05:03] <CineScope> i just installed ut2003 and the update to version 2225, while playing the sound is scratchy/broken; any ideas on how to smooth it out?
[05:04] <fyrestrtr> lymeca: what laptop do you have?
[05:04] <ice109> "sharing services are not installed" you need to install either samba or nfs in order to share your folders
[05:04] <ice109> note that this is happening only on the client computer
[05:04] <ice109> on the server i configured all this easily
[05:04] <ice109> do i need to configure this for the client?
[05:05] <ibilic> what should I use instead of sudo for GUI applications?
[05:05] <bruenig> gksu
[05:05] <ibilic> thanks
[05:05] <fyrestrtr> gksudo
[05:05] <EbilPhish> gksudo
[05:05] <fyrestrtr> not gksu
[05:05] <zcat[1] > ice109: are you trying to share a folder from the 'client', or browse the network?
[05:05] <lymeca> fyrestrtr: Dell Inspiron E1505
[05:05] <CineScope> lymeca: edit the xorg.conf to only have the 640x480 resolution then startx
[05:05] <bruenig> I like gksu
[05:06] <ice109> ok lets start over, i've run gksudo share-admin successfully on the computer i want to share folders on
[05:06] <CineScope> lymeca: after the install is finished install the ati driver to get native res
[05:06] <EbilPhish> su and sudo are different
[05:06] <fyrestrtr> ice109: sudo apt-get install samba smbclient
[05:06] <ice109> those are both installed already
[05:06] <ruckc> is anyone familiar with how acpid ties into cpu frequency settings and how to disable acpi from changing cpu frequency?
[05:06] <zcat[1] > ice109: on the client machine, you should only need to go to the 'places' menu > network > browse-around-like-in-windows
[05:07] <ice109> zcat im in xubuntu
[05:07] <MasterShrek> ruckc, try in #linux
[05:07] <fyrestrtr> ruckc: for what cpu?
[05:07] <ice109> i don't have a "places"
[05:07] <CineScope> lymeca: i'm having similar problems with my hp nx9420 with x1600, i still can't get the native 1680x1050 to work on boot, but changing res after login works
[05:07] <lymeca> CineScope: Nope it still says no matching modes
[05:07] <zcat[1] > ahh, sorry.. haven't used xubuntu for a while :)
[05:07] <lymeca> even with 640x480
[05:07] <ibilic> ok what kind of disk label should I create?
[05:07] <lymeca> This is off of a Feisty Desktop install disc
[05:07] <ibilic> msdos?
[05:07] <fujin> an awesome one
[05:08] <lymeca> I can't install Ubuntu even
[05:08] <lymeca> Because I can't boot up into it
[05:08] <fyrestrtr> lymeca: use the alternate cd.
[05:08] <h1st0> ibilic: what are you trying to do?
[05:08] <daedalus__> MasterShrek: the final status of the executed command was 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 114 not upgraded....
[05:08] <CineScope> lymeca the alternate should work also
[05:08] <ibilic> I have a hard disk I want to create a partition in
[05:08] <jetscreamer> daedalus__: apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:08] <ibilic> it never had anything on it (i.e. it's new
[05:08] <h1st0> fyrestrtr: gksu and gksudo are the same app
[05:09] <jetscreamer> ibilic: cfdisk /dev/whatever
[05:09] <zcat[1] > ice109: at worst, I think you can open a terminal and sudo mount "//host/share" /mnt/mountpoint -- or something close to that
[05:09] <h1st0> ibilic: do you want to use it for just linux or windows also?
[05:09] <bruenig> gksudo used to be a symlink to gksu, I don't know if it still is
[05:09] <lymeca> that's very frustrating
[05:09] <fyrestrtr> h1st0: no, they are not.
[05:09] <ice109> zcat[1]  is there something i can from a repository thats a network browser
[05:09] <lymeca> Why doesn't X11/vesa understand this card?
[05:09] <gnomefreak> bruenig: still is
[05:09] <CineScope> lymeca: yep https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/89853
[05:09] <h1st0> fyrestrtr: okay whatever you say.
[05:09] <ibilic> that I am not really sure, but unless there is a huge issue with performance in linux, then I would like to be open to both
[05:09] <zcat[1] > ice109: probably, but I'm not too familiar with xubuntu
[05:10] <fyrestrtr> h1st0: read the manual page and you'll know why.
[05:10] <ibilic> I am creating my long-term music/video/data storage
[05:10] <fyrestrtr> ibilic: ext3
[05:10] <zcat[1] > ice109: apt-cache search network browser  perhaps?
[05:10] <ibilic> can windows read ext3?
[05:10] <ice109> didn't work
[05:10] <h1st0> ibilic: You can use ext3 in windows with add ons or you can create a fat32 parittion and its not an issue
[05:10] <CineScope> lymeca: hopefully it will be corrected in gutsy; i havent tried any of the betas yet tho
[05:10] <zcat[1] > hmmm.. missing kid, better go look into it :(
[05:10] <MasterShrek> i woudlnt suggest fat32
[05:11] <MasterShrek> it fragments
[05:11] <Oney> Off-Topic: Anyone know of any good package for ubuntu for filesharing with windows network?
[05:11] <Trentster> is there a way using " history " or some other command that I can see the hostname or ip of the user who ran a particular command?
[05:11] <bruenig> !samba
[05:11] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:11] <h1st0> ibilic: http://www.fs-driver.org/
[05:12] <fyrestrtr> Trentster: are you talking about ssh?
[05:12] <ibilic> h1st0: why is ext3 so much better?
[05:12] <Oney> bruenig: thanks
[05:12] <Raizen> ibilic: better than what?
[05:12] <ibilic> I will only use it for data storage really, no system files
[05:13] <Trentster> fyrestrtr, yes ssh
[05:13] <ibilic> than fat32 I guess
[05:13] <h1st0> ibilic: it has journeling but you won't really be using it in windows.
[05:13] <MasterShrek> ibilic, it doesnt fragment
[05:13] <tate_> Okay, has anyone installed the new version of mythtv on feisty here?
[05:13] <h1st0> ibilic: the choice is yours.  The other thing to consider with fat32 is fragmentation whcih ext3 won't do.
[05:13] <tate_> I swear, I have tried everything to get the latest version and Feisty is totally screwed when it comes to mythtv
[05:13] <fyrestrtr> Trentster: if they didn't disable the history, you can check ~/.bash_history
[05:14] <fyrestrtr> Trentster: to find out the IP, check openssh logs.
[05:14] <ibilic> what about ntfs?
[05:14] <daedalus__> jetscreamer: thanks, but it is huge!!! its downloading some python stuff, and some open office things, too.. that will update the headers?
[05:14] <Oney> bruenig: errr, how to I get samba started up now?
[05:14] <bruenig> I don't know
[05:14] <Trentster> fyrestrtr, well what happens if there are like 20 users logged in at the same time, that wont help me to know who ran what command....?
[05:14] <Oney> I tried ALT+F2 "samba"
[05:14] <Oney> no luck
[05:14] <h1st0> ibilic: ntfs write support in linux is still experimental
[05:14] <fyrestrtr> Trentster: you can type 'w'
[05:15] <bruenig> don't those links have information
[05:15] <jetscreamer> daedalus__: apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) if it doesn't
[05:15] <fyrestrtr> to see what a user is doing right now.
[05:15] <cjae_> how do I make firefox send web pages and such with thunderbird 2
[05:15] <jetscreamer> ibilic: ntfs-3g is good
[05:15] <jetscreamer> ibilic: ntfs isn't
[05:15] <jetscreamer> for writing
[05:15] <daedalus__> jetscreamer: it didnt, i executed that one first and it didnt update anything
[05:15] <Trentster> fyrestrtr, yes thats if they are logged in now, whatabout if i want to check a problem that was started by someone last week
[05:15] <jetscreamer> then your headers are fine
[05:15] <jetscreamer> perhaps a link
[05:16] <jetscreamer> not sure where
[05:16] <jetscreamer> seen it done
[05:16] <daedalus__> jetscreamer: how do i cancel that download?
[05:16] <jetscreamer> ctrl+c
[05:16] <ibilic> what I am more concerned about is that the KDE Deamon, whatever that is, detected my hard disk only when I installed Gparted
[05:16] <daedalus__> jeatscremer: it will delete all the installed files?
[05:16] <ibilic> ( or... opended a popup window )
[05:16] <daedalus__> jeatcreamer: sorry downloaded...
[05:16] <fyrestrtr> Trentster: don't know to be honest.
[05:16] <jetscreamer> daedalus__: you should let it complete sometime ... no the downloaded files will stay and wait till you do it again or clear the cache
[05:17] <jetscreamer> everything is as it was
[05:17] <daedalus__> jeatscreamer: ok, thanks
[05:17] <jetscreamer> cept you're halfway done downloading
[05:17] <Trentster> fyrestrtr, thanks anyways mate
[05:17] <jetscreamer> or whatever
[05:18] <atarinox> anybody ever have problems w/ flash video stuttering in firefox?
[05:19] <CineScope> is there anyway to disable or remove gamin with out messing up an install?
[05:19] <fyrestrtr> atarinox: sorry, not here.
[05:19] <iMayKnow> atarinox, the only problem i've ever had with flash and firefox is flash crashing firefox
[05:19] <iMayKnow> doesn't happen often, but on occasion... no stuttering though
[05:20] <craigbass1976> Who do I talk to about vi (instead of vim) coming with ubuntu?  You'd think with all the new hardware supported, and the strides made in terms of ease of use, that this relic might be replaced by default with vim.
[05:20] <craigbass1976> Not too important I guess, I jusr forget for a while until I remember why some keys don't behave as I'm used to
[05:20] <fyrestrtr> craigbass1976: would be worse if they symlinked it emacs :P
[05:21] <CineScope> mine has vim
[05:21] <faileas> craigbass1976: well... if you use vim, you probably have the skills to install vim ;p
[05:21] <CineScope> vi --version
[05:21] <craigbass1976> I know, I know...
[05:21] <jetscreamer> vim is the default isn't it
[05:21] <CineScope> by default if you use vi to launch vim it uses vi bindings
[05:21] <Trentster> fyrestrtr, does history record a timestamp at least, so you can see what date and time the command was run?
[05:21] <Shadowfox> i am getting a error 21 when booting up my pc with the grub loader from installing ubuntu
[05:21] <CineScope> or something like that
[05:21] <craigbass1976> quitchyer*****in, right?
[05:21] <jetscreamer> vim supplies vi
[05:21] <Shadowfox> Dos any one know how to fix it
[05:22] <ice109> bah somehow i've messed up synaptic on my laptop
[05:22] <fyrestrtr> craigbass1976: read yer new laptop's manual instead ;)
[05:22] <ice109> any kind of panacea terminal command i can use to fix it?
[05:22] <baconbits> Generally speaking, how large of a partition does ubuntu need?
[05:22] <seamus7> Hi.. I've begun having problems with delays when accessing certain administrative programs like "Network" and "Users and Groups" ... when I start the program its window pops up but it takes a couple minutes before the content of the window is drawn on the screen ... I'm trying to figure out what I did recently that might have caused this problem to arise.... can anyone help?
[05:22] <fyrestrtr> ice109: what's wrong with it?
[05:22] <craigbass1976> hehe
[05:22] <koronotomo11> cw_alone
[05:22] <baconbits> The partitioner made me make it a certain size, but I think that was due to the size of my windows partition
[05:22] <Oney> #beryl
[05:22] <Oney> dammit
[05:23] <fyrestrtr> seamus7: are you running desktop effects?
[05:23] <craigbass1976> Something weird happened a bit ago, when I tried to sudo something, I got a timestamp error.  Something thought it was the 18th, though date and the GUI clock showed correct date and time.
[05:23] <ice109> when i launch it and its loading package list i get an error : dynamic mmap out of room, error occurred while processing guile-gnome0-ui etc
[05:23] <seamus7> fyrestrtr: I had just recently installed Compiz Fusion but I rarely use it.
[05:23] <fyrestrtr> !grub | Shadowfox
[05:23] <ubotu> Shadowfox: 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
[05:23] <ice109> fyrestrtr a bunch of errors and then it just disappears
[05:24] <fyrestrtr> o.O
[05:24] <ice109> whats the terminal command to update package list?
[05:24] <fyrestrtr> ice109: sudo apt-get update
[05:24] <fyrestrtr> ice109: how much ram do you have on your machine?
[05:25] <baconbits> Generally speaking, how large of a partition does ubuntu need?
[05:25] <ice109> 512
[05:25] <seamus7> fyrestrtr: is mine a somewhat common problem after installing or using desktop effects?
[05:25] <CineScope> desktop effects really slows down gqview, so it is disabled here
[05:25] <fyrestrtr> seamus7: what graphics hardware do you have?
[05:25] <ice109> i put in a weird repository source, i took it out
[05:25] <ice109> lets see if its fixed
[05:25] <dv310p3r> how can I make Azureus the default torrent client?
[05:25] <ice109> yea i fixed it
[05:26] <seamus7> fyrestrtr: I use an ATI Radeon Mobile X1300 with the fglrx driver
[05:26] <usser> baconbits: 5 gig for the system and 5 gig for home partition
[05:26] <h1st0> dv310p3r: right click on a torrent and change the default open with
[05:26] <h1st0> dv310p3r: I should say right click and go to properties there will be an open with tab.
[05:26] <dv310p3r> I don't know what file to choose,
[05:26] <seamus7> fyrestrtr: and XGL
[05:26] <fyrestrtr> seamus7: I have almost the same (x1400) here, and I run fusion without any such issues, so its not that.
[05:26] <h1st0> dv310p3r: A torrent file.
[05:27] <baconbits> So if I set it to around 50g that'll be fine, thats all I needed to know. I want to leave my Windows partition larger since most of my school stuff has to be submitted through programs on there and whatnot
[05:27] <dv310p3r> I don't understand Linux like I do windows. What's the equivalent of a *.exe file in linux?
[05:27] <h1st0> dv310p3r: a file thats executable
[05:27] <fyrestrtr> dv310p3r: any file that has the execution bit set.
[05:27] <dv310p3r> lol
[05:27] <h1st0> dv310p3r: it doesn't have extension like windows
[05:27] <seamus7> fyrestrtr: did you use the amaranth repository to get compiz fusion and such?
[05:27] <faileas> dv310p3r: linux dosen't care about extentions
[05:27] <h1st0> dv310p3r: save a .torrent file to your home directory
[05:28] <h1st0> dv310p3r: then right click on it and go to properties.  CLick on the open with tab and change the default to azureus
[05:28] <cjae_> how do I make firefox send web pages and such with thunderbird 2
[05:28] <fyrestrtr> seamus7: no
[05:28] <craigbass1976> Can anyone think of a reason why this fix http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1742116 would NOT work?
[05:28] <midtronic> howdy... how do I find out why packages are being held back?
[05:28] <craigbass1976> and fyrestrtr no, there are not any buttons I'm missing this time ;)
[05:29] <cjae_> why is there no make sure thunderbird is default email program
[05:29] <dv310p3r> Oh got it, Thanks, it was a lot more difficult to choose the default app through Mozilla when downloading it, that was easy though. Thanks
[05:29] <craigbass1976> cjae_, there is; it's been so long I forget where to do it though
[05:29] <cjae_> ff just opens evolution
[05:30] <h1st0> cjae_: have you looked in firefox's preferences as well as your systems for handling email?
[05:31] <fyrestrtr> cjae_: system > preferences > preferred applications
[05:31] <craigbass1976> desktop effects are awesome....
[05:31] <cjae_> fyrestrtr, it is set there
[05:31] <h1st0> cjae_: log otu and back in then.
[05:32] <ibilic> what is a "proc" partition?
[05:32] <cjae_> been set there for months
[05:32] <midtronic> ibilic: for better or for worse, it's where processes hang out -- there's a folder for every PID
[05:32] <midtronic> check it out
[05:32] <fyrestrtr> craigbass1976: if your soundcard was not the same type as the thread.
[05:33] <midtronic> it's generally mounted on /proc
[05:33] <cjae_> when I do file send link in ff it opens evolution
[05:33] <craigbass1976> Shouldn't there be some sort of modprobe command like when you have to mess with some wireless cards to make them work
[05:33] <fyrestrtr> cjae_: I just changed it now and it works; so its something else :)
[05:33] <fyrestrtr> craigbass1976: it is an issue with the newer hda chipsets and alsa version that ships with 7.04
[05:34] <cjae_> apt-get remove evolution ?
[05:34] <seamus7> hi... what MUST be in my /etc/network/interfaces file ?? I don't understand what loopback means and if it needs an entry.... ?
[05:34] <fyrestrtr> seamus7: you normally don't mess with that file unless you know what you are doing .... so .... what are you doing?
[05:34] <ice109> alright so now i have samba on both of my computers
[05:34] <ice109> and pyneighborhood for browsing
[05:34] <ice109> but i can't see one computer from the other
[05:34] <fyrestrtr> ice109: are both computers linux?
[05:34] <trpr> seamus7: loopback is a network interface that refers back to the localhost.. don't mess with its entry
[05:35] <ice109> yes
[05:35] <ice109> both xubuntu same version
[05:35] <ice109> both on the same workgrou
[05:35] <fyrestrtr> then why are you using samba?
[05:35] <gaspar> quit
[05:35] <Shadowfox> how do you make a partition have the /boot thing in it and that kind of stuff so i can install grub on it
[05:35] <seamus7> fyrestrtr: I have manually configured the file in order to get certain security features enabled automatically ... it's never been a problem .. .plus I have different profiles set up in Network Manager that seem to rewrite the file when I switch to them ... but I still don't really understand what loopback is and I recently deleted it by mistake and think it's causing problems now ...
[05:35] <ice109> well i don't know if i'm specifically using samba, i just installed both samba and nfs when i clicked "shared folders" on both computers
[05:35] <nonewmsgs> i changed the mountpoint of my ipod and used an illegal char and now it wont mount.  how can i change it back
[05:36] <midtronic> nonewmsgs: check /etc/fstab
[05:36] <seamus7> trpr: what would a default loopback entry in the interfaces file look like ... I believe mine referred to 'lo'
[05:36] <craigbass1976> fyrestrtr, do you knwo of a different fix than that in the post I linked?
[05:37] <fyrestrtr> ice109: for two linux (and derivates) computers, there are a lot simpler ways of sharing files. For example, you could just mount them remotely (using nfs), or copy files across using scp/rsync, or even have mouted folders over ssh.
[05:37] <MeRodent> If I use gparted to resize and add a hdd partition will I need to change my grub/fstab?
[05:37] <fyrestrtr> craigbass1976: nope, that's what I had to do on my laptop (but I compiled it in using the wiki link, not the forums)
[05:37] <fyrestrtr> MeRodent: no.
[05:37] <trpr> seamus7: yes, thats right. you should have a line 'auto lo', specifying that it should be brought up automatically
[05:37] <craigbass1976> can I have the link?
[05:37] <fyrestrtr> craigbass1976: its there in the forum
[05:37] <seamus7> trpr: what does that do ?
[05:37] <MeRodent> fyrestrtr, so it will keep the current partition names and simply add an additional one?
[05:38] <craigbass1976> ok
[05:38] <fyrestrtr> HdaIntelSoundHowto or somesuch.
[05:38] <nonewmsgs> i dont see any external drive in fstab
[05:38] <Nahob> Does anyone here use Ubuntu as a desktop OS?
[05:38] <fyrestrtr> Nahob: sure.
[05:38] <Nahob> I hear so much that Windows is better.
[05:38] <Nahob> It has better and more apps.
[05:39] <fyrestrtr> Nahob: then use windows :)
[05:39] <Nahob> I want to use Ubuntu
[05:39] <fyrestrtr> its all about choice
[05:39] <Nahob> Isn't it better if you know how to use it?
[05:39] <fyrestrtr> what thing isn't?
[05:39] <Nahob> Well lets look at Mac OS's.
[05:39] <Nahob> If you know how to use it, it still has huge limits,.
[05:39] <fyrestrtr> Nahob: #ubuntu-offtopic please
[05:39] <trpr> seamus7: im curious what you are doing to that file that you are messing w/ lo
[05:39] <Alzan> I have a problem. Ubuntu refused to recognize my USB External Harddrive as a writeable disk.
[05:40] <Alzan> Refuses I should say
[05:40] <DigitalNinja> I've got a Logitech webcam. It with Linux. However, the video quality in Windows is so much better. Is there a way to get better video in Linux?
[05:40] <ice109> fyrestrtr i can't get even this to work
[05:40] <EbilPhish> Nahob:  Depends on what you use a computer for, most windows apps have a decent linux equivalent but most games won't run and if there is a specific windows app that you want you proabally stuck
[05:40] <fyrestrtr> Alzan: is it formatted as ntfs?
[05:40] <Pelo> Alzan,  what is the file system of that usb drive ?
[05:40] <EbilPhish> Nahob:  Although you can run some windows stuff under linux with wine
[05:40] <WaltzingAlong> Nahob: yes using gnu/linux-based ubuntu as desktop os here
[05:40] <ice109> i can see my laptop from my computer but i can't mount the folder that i have shared on the laptop onto my copmuter
[05:40] <fyrestrtr> ice109: samba is a lot more complex than simply nfs.
[05:40] <MeRodent> Alzan, is it formatted as ntfs?
[05:40] <beeew> how would u do an equivalent of 'wget' in darwin termainal of macosX
[05:40] <ice109> ok how then do i mount a folder on one computer using nfs
[05:40] <beeew> ?
[05:41] <fyrestrtr> ice109: what are you running on both? xubuntu?
[05:41] <Alzan> All: It is formatted as NTSF
[05:41] <ice109> yes
[05:41] <WaltzingAlong> DigitalNinja: make a better driver ?
[05:41] <Pelo> beeew,  I think you need to ask in a osX channel
[05:41] <fyrestrtr> do you run nautilus or thunar?
[05:41] <ice109> thunar
[05:41] <beeew> (sorry, should ask in osx room)
[05:41] <Pelo> !ntfs-3g | Alzan
[05:41] <ubotu> Alzan: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:41] <ice109> i know thunar doesn't have native network browsing
[05:41] <ice109> and i don't feel like getting that to work
[05:41] <ice109> actually nm al lthis
[05:41] <seamus7> trpr: I messed with the 'lo' line in the interaces file by mistake ... I'm putting it back in ... I had been creating different profiles using Network Manager in order to switch between two locations that use wireless internet and at which I want a static ip address ... in the process I deleted the auto lo line out of carelessness and was curious what it does..
[05:42] <ice109> i'll just setup and ftp server on one computer
[05:42] <DigitalNinja> WaltzingAlong: Sure! I'll get right on it ;)
[05:42] <ice109> will that be slower than just straight over the lan?
[05:42] <fyrestrtr> nope
[05:42] <EbilPhish> Alzan:  sudo apt-get install ntfs-config; ntfs-config
[05:42] <fyrestrtr> ice109: if you just want to copy files over.
[05:42] <ice109> yea
[05:42] <ice109> thats it
[05:42] <fyrestrtr> install openssh-server on both machines
[05:42] <ice109> and this is what?
[05:43] <fyrestrtr> then just use scp (secure copy) from a terminal; or use any ftp client that supports scp
[05:43] <trpr> seamus7: in that case, the line you want is:  iface lo inet loopback   ... if you accidently delete it. then make sure your file contains auto lo. you can list more interfaces after that. ie auto lo eth0 eth1 ... to bring them all up automatically..
[05:43] <ozone^fume> wow there are 1090 people in the channel
[05:43] <fyrestrtr> ice109: just install it, no configuration required -- sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[05:43] <Pelo> ozone^fume,  yeah, it's a slow day
[05:43] <WaltzingAlong> DigitalNinja: :D not something i can readily do either
[05:43] <Shadowfox> how do i fix this /boot: Not found or not a block device
[05:43] <ozone^fume> haha
[05:44] <Pelo> Shadow6363,  when booting ?
[05:44] <DigitalNinja> WaltzingAlong: Video seems a bit slow in Windows though.
[05:44] <ozone^fume> i made an inquiry using /list this channel is on top..
[05:44] <tds> I ahve tried a few things to get my intelli mouse back and forward buttons to work.  Does anyone have advice or a tutorial I should follow?
[05:44] <ice109> so how do i use this openssh-server?
[05:44] <Pelo> ozone^fume,  this is the ubuntu support channel , we're very popular for some reason
[05:44] <Pelo> !mouse > tds  check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[05:44] <Shadowfox> no when i try to install grub to a new partiton
[05:44] <tds> thanks
[05:45] <fyrestrtr> ice109: install it on both. Then if you want to copy a file, lets say /home/ice/hello.txt from 192.168.0.2, on the computer you want to copy to, just type scp ice@192.168.0.2:/home/ice/hello.txt .
[05:45] <seamus7> trpr: oh ok thx. do i need both 'iface lo inet loopback' AND 'auto lo' or just the first?
[05:45] <fyrestrtr> seamus7: both
[05:45] <ice109> ice is a command?
[05:45] <ice109> or my host name or something?
[05:45] <trpr> seamus7: the iface line is the definition. the auto part specifies it will be brought up automatically. you need both
[05:45] <fyrestrtr> ice is your username :P
[05:45] <Pelo> Shadow6363, not sure how to do that,  but I thinik the supergrub cd might be helpfull
[05:45] <ice109> ahh
[05:45] <Alzan> Does anyone know what the TUN package is? I've found something to connect to AOL but I can't find anything about said TUN package since I have no internet yet.
[05:45] <tech> majnoon: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:46] <Shadowfox> thank you
[05:46] <ice109> wait it what i want to copy a whole folder?
[05:46] <seamus7> fyrestrtr: trpr: if I don't use the 'lo' interface since I'm using a wireless connection , why is lo being referenced at all?
[05:46] <ice109> what if i want to
[05:46] <nonewmsgs> i did not see the fstab option for my ipod only hardrives but my ipod is trying to mount using an illegal char (i told it to mount under /media/ipod ;(
[05:46] <acecase> does anyone know the term for a wifi network that doesn't use encryption but uses a login page? My school uses this type of system and for some reason I can't connect when boot to Ubuntu.
[05:46] <fyrestrtr> seamus7: it is needed for internal networking in the system.
[05:46] <Shadowfox> well dam i am stuck now i am running off of the live cd and i cant get into windows becouse i am getting errors
[05:46] <Geeunkown> how do Change my permission's  so i don't have to use the admin password every time i make a change
[05:46] <seamus7> fyrestrtr: oh ok. thx.
[05:47] <ice109> fyrestrtr what about whole folders and where it going anyway
[05:47] <trpr> seamus7: its the loopback. you need it even if you don't know what it is ;) it's address 127.0.0.0 .. it always refers to your localhost
[05:47] <Pelo> Shadow6363, join me in #grub please
[05:47] <fyrestrtr> ice109: for folders, scp -r user@someserver:/path/to/folder /where/you/want/it/on/this/machine
[05:47] <Pelo> Shadowfox, join me in #grub please
[05:48] <ice109> thx
[05:48] <fujin> What do I need to get mysql_pconnect working in php5 on Ubuntu?
[05:48] <seamus7> trpr: ok thx. it helps me to know that it is necessary ... I'll add a comment in the file reminding me of such ... :)
[05:48] <fyrestrtr> fujin: magic 8-ball says: sudo apt-get install php5-mysql
[05:48] <fujin> installed
[05:48] <fujin> next
[05:48] <HHP22> Hey guys, I was wondering if someone could answer a question I had about transfering files across two computers in the same room.. or if anyone could direct me to the proper channel?
[05:48] <fyrestrtr> fujin: access to a mysql server.
[05:49] <fujin> yep, got that
[05:49] <fujin> mysql_connect is there
[05:49] <fujin> mysql_pconnect is not
[05:49] <fyrestrtr> !ask | HHP22
[05:49] <ubotu> HHP22: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:49] <ash__> Is there anyway to get a terminal to open with it ready to logon root... like xterm -user root or something like that?
[05:49] <cjracker> mysql_pconnect is used way too often
[05:49] <acecase> HHP22, over what medium?
[05:49] <cjracker> persistent connections with mysql arent needed nearly as much as people tend to think
[05:49] <fyrestrtr> ash__: sudo xterm
[05:50] <fujin> care factor is low
[05:50] <fujin> about what you think
[05:50] <fujin> but thanks for that
[05:50] <fujin> it's cause apt-get install php5-mysql doesn't enable the php module
[05:50] <cjracker> well, it kills databases
[05:50] <ash__> fyrestrtr, I'm trying to get it binded to a keyboard shortcut... that wouldnt work :(
[05:50] <cjracker> hurts performance, etc, etc
[05:50] <endlessurf> I would like to make a couple of button looking things on my desktop, I was wondering if any of you know a good program for this.....
[05:50] <fyrestrtr> fujin: are you using it on a webserver or from the cli?
[05:50] <endlessurf> oh and they would do things
[05:50] <fujin> webserver
[05:50] <fyrestrtr> fujin: and what error do you get
[05:51] <fyrestrtr> ash__: create a launcher, assign it a shortcut.
[05:51] <Geeunkown> Anyone know how do Change my permission's  so i don't have to use the admin password every time i make a change
[05:51] <fyrestrtr> Geeunkown: use the admin password, it is there for your own safety.
[05:52] <jinx099_> sudo chmod 777 /    (<- dont really do it!)
[05:52] <acecase> Geeunkown, google NOPASS sudo
[05:52] <Geeunkown> Thanks
[05:52] <acecase> np
[05:52] <ice109> fyrestrtr no worky
[05:52] <HHP22> acecase: Transfering 556 MB of Music files from one computer to another when both are hooked up to a wired router.
[05:53] <fujin> fyrestrtr: function doesn't exist. I realised why, though, and have fixed it
[05:53] <fujin> as I said, php5-mysql doesn't enable the module, it just installs it
[05:53] <tarelerulz> With  Azureus you can see the ip of all the other bit torrent clients connecting to you . I am asking why would you want to know that?
[05:53] <acecase> HHP22, take your pick, scp, ftp, samba, etc etc :)
[05:53] <fujin> installing the lamp package with tasksel probably automatically enables the module
[05:53] <fyrestrtr> fujin: you have to restart the webserver for it to take effect.
[05:53] <HHP22> acecase: I don't know how to use any of those :(
[05:53] <fujin> no shit
[05:53] <fyrestrtr> there is no other 'enabling' per-se.
[05:53] <fujin> yes there is
[05:53] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | fujin
[05:53] <ubotu> fujin: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:53] <HHP22> acecase: I'm being a noob and trying to transfer it through an IM client. :P
[05:53] <WaltzingAlong> tarelerulz: a general user of bittorrent may never need to know that; configure azureus to stop displaying that should you wish
[05:54] <acecase> HHP22, what operating systems?
[05:54] <fyrestrtr> fujin: which is what?
[05:54] <fyrestrtr> ice109: what about it?
[05:54] <fujin> in php.ini
[05:54] <ice109> i ran the command
[05:54] <HHP22> acecase: XP on source and Ubuntu on Destination
[05:54] <fujin> extension=mysql.so
[05:54] <ice109> and nothing happened
[05:54] <fyrestrtr> fujin: that's what the install command does, when you reload the webserver, it re-reads the file.
[05:54] <fujin> what the hell are you talking about?
[05:54] <ice109> scp -r usernameonserver@serverip:/pathonserver /pathonlaptop
[05:54] <fujin> I just apt-get installed php5-mysql
[05:54] <fujin> and it didn't enable the module
[05:54] <fujin> I had to manually enable it
[05:54] <fujin> die in a fire
[05:54] <Mobus> I'm trying to install glib and it says the default path (/user/local) might make my system unusable.  Is this a concern?
[05:54] <LadyNikon> is there a package called "Lamp"
[05:55] <fyrestrtr> fujin: then file a bug.
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> !lamp
[05:55] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[05:55] <tarelerulz> Waltzingalong , I was just wonder why any one would want to know that . I can't think of anything other then you would want to block that ip or something like that. I am just wondering
[05:55] <fujin> LadyNikon: you can use 'sudo tasksel install lamp-server'
[05:55] <LadyNikon> thanks fujin
[05:55] <acecase> HHP22, install ssh on the ubuntu (sudo apt-get install ssh) then download winscp on the windows box. When you open winscp you will just enter the IP of the ubuntu box and your user/pass and you will see the folders on the ubuntu box. After that its drag and drop. Probably the least steps aproach
[05:55] <dew> Hey all... when using Compiz, when you click on the titlebar, the window you're selecting turns transparent.... does anyone know which option turns that off?
[05:55] <fyrestrtr> ice109: something must have happened.
[05:56] <ice109> nope
[05:56] <ice109> nothing
[05:56] <WaltzingAlong> tarelerulz: yeah it could be that. the nature of how bittorrent works is such that the IP addresses from those with whom you are connected are known and thus in azureus able to be displayed
[05:56] <fyrestrtr> ice109: impossible.
[05:56] <ice109> i don't know what to tell you dude
[05:56] <DShepherd> how do i open vim on a specific line?
[05:56] <mindframe-> is it possible to tell the Xserver to listen on the localhost?
[05:56] <ice109> whats a good ftp server with a gui?
[05:56] <mindframe-> filezilla
[05:56] <cjracker> server with a gui or client with a gui?
[05:56] <ice109> wel lboth
[05:57] <HHP22> acecase: Sounds simple enough. Thank you :)
[05:57] <mindframe-> filzezilla
[05:57] <acecase> ice109, why would you want an FTP server with a GUI?
[05:57] <fyrestrtr> DShepherd: vim +linenumber filename
[05:57] <cjracker> yah really acecase
[05:57] <acecase> HHP22, np, good luck
[05:57] <DShepherd> fyrestrtr, thanks
[05:57] <ice109> because i'm CLI averse?
[05:57] <mindframe-> ice109, vsftpd is a REALLY good ftp server and requires only a little cmd line configuration
[05:57] <cjracker> the server will accept your gui related commands.,. it doesnt need a gui
[05:57] <cjracker> vsftpd is the way to go imo
[05:57] <acecase> ice109, FTP server will only need setup once then users added as needed. you won't interface GU or CL  much
[05:58] <tarelerulz> Well, been doing a lot of bit torrent work as of late and trying to find the best one .  Azureus is the best on features ,but it bit to pick on some ways.  Deluge had a bunch of problems with it.  so just wondering what might be a good torrent client
[05:58] <Dr_Willis> Shell we suggest learning to use ssh and sftp ? :)
[05:58] <fyrestrtr> Dr_Willis: already tried that route.
[05:58] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz i tend to use ktorrent, wine and utorrent.exe also can work.
[05:58] <acecase> ice109, none of my buisness, just wondering if you may have meant ftp client.
[05:58] <ice109> bah fine, but figured out bash commands is too time consuming
[05:58] <ice109> i need both
[05:59] <ice109> but filezilla will suffice as an ftp client
[05:59] <Dr_Willis> theres dozens of ftp clients out.
[05:59] <dew> Did anyone see my post above?
[05:59] <fujin> transmission is pretty low-feature low-bug
[05:59] <fujin> last time I used it, anyway
[05:59] <fujin> torrent client that is
[05:59] <mindframe-> ice109, filezilla has a gui server too
[05:59] <Geeunkown> Is there an Channel for questions regarding Vmware ..
[05:59] <ice109> hmm
[05:59] <tarelerulz> Dr_Willis , Like Ktorrent ,but it did not tell me as much about the torrent as I wanted .
[05:59] <faileas> Geeunkown: yes
[05:59] <acecase> ice109, look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=51611
[05:59] <faileas> #vmware ;p
[05:59] <mindframe-> ice109, nevermind its windows only
[05:59] <fyrestrtr> Geeunkown: you mean other than #vmware ?
[05:59] <HHP22> acecase: Can I get the terminal to output the IP of the computer with a certain command?
[06:00] <HHP22> (on ubuntu)

[06:02] <ice109> i already have vsftp
[06:02] <HHP22> acecase: Okay. Thanks so much for all your help :D
[06:02] <mindframe-> its very simple.  sudo nano /etc/vsftpd.conf .  uncomment line #local_enable=YES and #write_enable=yes and sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart
[06:02] <mindframe-> ice109,  ^
[06:02] <acecase> HHP22, no problem :)
[06:02] <mindframe-> uncomment = remove the #
[06:03] <ice109> how do i set the serving directory
[06:03] <mindframe-> ice109, do you want anonymous to access that dir?
[06:03] <underwatercow> what do +win,+x11drv,+event,+xrandr refer to?
[06:03] <ice109> sure
[06:03] <mindframe-> ice109, is this over the internet or local network?
[06:03] <ice109> local
[06:04] <ice109> here just wait let me try to follow this guide on the forums
[06:04] <mindframe-> which directory do you want it to be?

[06:04] <whileimhere> if I do a server install of Ubuntu what is the name of the package to install X?
[06:04] <acecase> HHP22, cool :)
[06:04] <HHP22> acecase: This will be really useful later on, thanks so much :)
[06:04] <cjracker> sh3l1, why do you want to do that?
[06:04] <sh3l1> codecs
[06:04] <Dr_Willis> underwatercow where are you getting that + stuff from anyway?
[06:04] <acecase> HHP22, no problem it isn't the fastest way but it is pretty reliable
[06:04] <fyrestrtr> sh3l1: install them from synaptic/apt-get
[06:04] <sh3l1> what package?
[06:05] <HHP22> acecase: And it's easy, which is nice for a nooblet like me :P

[06:05] <tarelerulz> HHp22 , nooblet that is nice name haha
[06:05] <acecase> HHP22, thank Ubuntu devs for that. They do a great job setting up ssh with no extra config needed

[06:05] <dew> Anyone work with Compiz at all?
[06:05] <gilster> got two ubuntu machines here i am networking together. I am getting really slow speeds can someone tell me of an alternative. Using samba now
[06:06] <pyrohotdog> Why does my motd revert back to the Ubuntu default after every restart?
[06:06] <Journeyman> when I try to uninstall gaim it wants to remove nautilus-sendto ubuntu-desktop
[06:06] <HHP22> acecase: I can tell.. it just does its job right out of the box
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> underwatercow sounds almost like gentoo talk.
[06:06] <Journeyman> how can I only remove gaim
[06:06] <fyrestrtr> gilster: scp / ftp / scp / nfs
[06:06] <underwatercow> Dr_Willis: It's from the wine forum
[06:06] <HHP22> tarelerulz: I like it :P
[06:06] <cheesehead> Anyone here know how to install Gutsy off of a USB drive?
[06:06] <bruenig> Journeyman, those things don't matter
[06:06] <cheesehead> I hear it's possbile.
[06:06] <underwatercow> Dr_Willis: Bugzilla for wine
[06:06] <cheesehead> New @#$#@$ X61 does not have a @#$#@$ PCMCIA slot. Hence, my CD-ROM drive won't work.
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> underwatercow sounds like options they may wanting enabled for wine then.
[06:06] <fyrestrtr> cheesehead: try in #ubuntu+1
[06:06] <Journeyman> uhm isn't ubuntu-desktop important?
[06:06] <bruenig> Journeyman, not at all
[06:06] <cheesehead> Also, they added a friggin' Windows key.
[06:07] <cheesehead> I want my jumbo Control key!
[06:07] <fyrestrtr> cheesehead: welcome to lenovo :)
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu-desktop - is a meta package.. its just a list of other packages
[06:07] <cheesehead> Eh.
[06:07] <cheesehead> The biggest problem is the key surface texture.
[06:07] <underwatercow> Dr_Willis: Is there somewhere else I should be asking?
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> it can be removed.. but its best to reinstallit befor doing a dist-upgrade
[06:07] <gilster> fyrestrtr: ok lets say i want to do scp from machine to machine both on same router what is the basic procedure for this
[06:07] <bruenig> ubuntu-desktop is an unfortunate apt hack that they use to get around apt's crippling inability to group packages
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> underwatercow #wine perhaps?
[06:07] <cheesehead> Which will be nice and smooth in about three months anyway, considering how much I use my laptop.
[06:07] <bruenig> instead of actually fixing that
[06:07] <underwatercow> Dr_Willis: I'll try, thanks
[06:07] <fyrestrtr> gilster: scp username@machine1:/path/to/file /path/on/this/machine
[06:08] <tarelerulz> cheesehead , I hope you find a good way to install ubuntu to a usb drive . That would be great I mean they  are becoming bigger every day. I mean 4 gb is alot of space for portable os
[06:08] <cheesehead> tarelerulz: Well, the ISO is only 700mb.
[06:08] <gilster> fyrestrtr: ok
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> I though the installer could install to a usb drive.. but you have to manually tweak the grub file i recall.
[06:08] <fyrestrtr> gilster: you need to have openssh-server installed on the machine you are transferring *from*
[06:09] <gilster> fyrestrtr: yes i have open ssh on both computers
[06:09] <bruenig> but of course it might be hard to fix that deficiency because it requires more than knowledge in scripting languages
[06:09] <ice109> how do i open a txt editor with su privledges?
[06:10] <fyrestrtr> ice109: gksudo nameoftexteditor
[06:10] <tarelerulz> Does ubuntu write to the  master boot record on the fist part is say the first hard drive in system if it is on the second hard drive ?
[06:10] <gilster> fyrestrtr: i am just no sure on the syntax to use. Both computers are on connected to same router. do i need to use their hostname or the ip addy
[06:10] <Journeyman> ice109, su vi file
[06:10] <Journeyman> erm sudo*
[06:10] <eoemr> in ubuntu, where can i delete files or programs i installed manually?
[06:10] <dew> Are there any Compiz users in here?
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz normally it installs grub to the mbr of hda (the first hard drive)
[06:10] <Journeyman> ice109, personal I have a root terminal open to do most things
[06:10] <fyrestrtr> tarelerulz: there is only one mbr, and it is on the first disk that boots. That is where ubuntu will write it, if you tell it so.
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> ive had ubuntu isntall grub to the 2nd hd. then i told the bios to boot that one. :) not touching the first..

[06:11] <eoemr> in ubuntu, where can i delete files or programs i installed manually?
[06:11] <dew> fyrestrtr, all righty.  Thanks.  I'll get over there.
[06:12] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz grub was on the mbr of hda, and wantedits config files. :) thats why
[06:12] <fyrestrtr> eoemr: where did you install them?
[06:12] <ice109> off topic but has anyone seen pick of destiny? most awesome movie veer
[06:12] <eoemr> jeje... i just need to delete the directories?
[06:12] <tarelerulz> So where are the config files you mean the stages and grub menu.list
[06:12] <fyrestrtr> ice109: we have #ubuntu-offtopic for that stuff
[06:13] <acecase> lol almost missed the / key and typed nickserv identify **********
[06:13] <sh3l1> is there a quick and easy way to update from gaim to pidgin?
[06:13] <trpr> eoemr: you are talking about stuff you compiled yourself? usually anything not handled by a package is put into /usr/local
[06:13] <fyrestrtr> sh3l1: download the package from getdeb
[06:13] <dew> fyrestrtr, seems no one is awake in there.
[06:13] <underwatercow> Dr_Willis: They are wine debug options
[06:13] <fyrestrtr> its 7 AM here, so ... I don't blame them.
[06:14] <underwatercow> Dr_Willis: now where would the wine log be? ;-D
[06:14] <fyrestrtr> underwatercow: ~/.wine
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> underwatercow :) i guessed right eh.. :)  hmm in the .wine dir perhaps?
[06:14] <dew> fyrestrtr, and where are you?  It's only 12 midnight here... LoL
[06:14] <acecase> thanks fyrestrtr I didn't know about getdeb :)
[06:14] <fyrestrtr> dew: GMT+3 :)
[06:14] <underwatercow> fyrestrtr, Dr_Willis: thanks, I'll look there
[06:14] <dew> fyre.... ah, I follow
[06:15] <fyrestrtr> dew: what is your question?
[06:16] <kkerwin> Hi, I was wondering where the Ubuntu kernel tree is located. /usr/src seems to be mostly empty, save a few Makefiles, with no *.c files.
[06:16] <fujin> you need a source package
[06:16] <fujin> !kernel
[06:16] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[06:16] <aleka> I have an XP drive with a US adapter that I just plugged into my Feisty.. I thought it would be a plug n play... nothing happened... "sudo fdisk -l" doesn't show the new device either... what can I do?
[06:16] <dew> fyrestrtr, when you click on the titlebar of a window, the window turns transparent until you release it... I want to disable that, but I don't know where that option is in Compiz.
[06:16] <ircleuser> hey
[06:16] <faileas> kkerwin: you need the kernel source adaptor
[06:16] <faileas> *package
[06:16] <aleka> us adater = USB adapter **
[06:17] <lazaruslupine> should be linux-source something
[06:17] <lazaruslupine> under synaptic or apt
[06:17] <kkerwin> faileas and fujin: Okie dokie. I thought that the files were included with build-essential. I'll research it now. Thank you.
[06:17] <thedash> any good ways to take some screenshots of videos ?
[06:17] <myk_> hello, could someone  recommend a good a program to convert ntfs to a linux partition
[06:17] <default> what does the command emerge do?
[06:18] <cjracker> emerge?
[06:18] <lazaruslupine> thats for gentoo
[06:18] <cjracker> yeah
[06:18] <kkerwin> default: That command is for gentoo.
[06:18] <lazaruslupine> kind of like apt
[06:18] <ubuntuuser1> hi
[06:18] <aleka> please help with mounting an external usb drive [ NTFS ] 
[06:18] <kkerwin> default: Try typing /join #gentoo in your IRC client.
[06:18] <kkerwin> default: And asking there.
[06:18] <default> kkerwin, that command is for gentoo, what would ubuntu version of this
[06:18] <acecase> aleka, what is the filesystem on the drive?
[06:18] <z0rz> is /8 Class C or /24 ... I forget...
[06:18] <default> be
[06:19] <lazaruslupine> default , the ubuntu version would be apt-get
[06:19] <cjracker> C is /24
[06:19] <kkerwin> default: Ah. apt-get is the command line version of this program. Both programs will install software for you.
[06:19] <default> oh i see
[06:19] <default> thank you
[06:19] <travisbickle> how do i add an ubuntu network printer to another ubuntu computer?
[06:19] <z0rz> cjracker: Thanks
[06:19] <kkerwin> default: You may, however, enjoy the graphical version: synaptic.
[06:19] <aleka> acecase: NTFS.. it is my friends XP drive whose laptop died... trying to mount it here and burn some files on a CD
[06:19] <dew> ...dang.
[06:20] <fujin> !ntfs-3g
[06:20] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[06:20] <aleka> dmesg |tail    shows that it recognized it as sdd but fdisk is not bringing anything up
[06:20] <z0rz> aleka: mkdir /media/friendslaptop && mount -t ntfs /dev/sdX# /media/friendslaptop
[06:20] <dew> BBL
[06:20] <z0rz> swap out /dev/sdX# with whatever your friends laptop's hard drive is.... use fdisk -l to get the name
[06:20] <acecase> aleka, you probably tried mount -t ntfs /some/dir rite?
[06:21] <kima> irbourne
[06:21] <aleka> z0rz: problem is finding out what device it is under
[06:21] <acecase> aleka, you probably tried mount -t ntfs /dev/sdd1 /some/dir rite?
[06:21] <acecase> :)
[06:21] <z0rz> aleka: sudo fdisk -l
[06:21] <ubuntuuser1> I feel sick... I think I formatted out my sda1 (320 GB drive) with ddrescue thinking it would have made a file and not made a partition :(
[06:21] <staykovmarin> does anyone know how to get the cd information, when you are ripping an audio cd?
[06:21] <aleka> acecase: I was trying sudo mount /dev/sdd -t ntfs-3g /mnt
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> staykovmarin the various ripper programs often have 'cddb' features that do that.
[06:22] <tarelerulz> Dr_Willis , Should have grub install on the second  hard drive and told the bios to boot that one fist . Then told the first desk install grub on the first ones mbr  and told it where to look on that desk for the config files so it would not matter if I took the second one out
[06:22] <aleka> z0rz: I posted I had done that above
[06:22] <z0rz> aleka: And?
[06:22] <ubuntuuser1> can anyone help me with data recovery issues inUbuntu?
[06:22] <Xman2> caan anyone tell me plz how to setup network on ubuntu 7.04
[06:22] <Xman2> ?
[06:22] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz Huh? I got a headach just reading that. :)
[06:22] <z0rz> Xman2: What's your router's ip?
[06:22] <acecase> aleka, have you tried sdd1?
[06:22] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz :)
[06:22] <aleka> z0rz: I can not see the new device.. and that was my original question... dmesg |tail says it got recognized as sdd.. but sudo fdisk -l does not show this
[06:23] <Xman2> z0rz: i have an direct internet connetion no router involved] 
[06:23] <aleka> acecase: just tried it.. no luck there
[06:23] <z0rz> aleka: Hmm.. Try a live cd.. or System Rescue CD.. or GParted Live.. also check in GParted (it's on the live cd)
[06:23] <myk_> ubotu: would it be better to convert a ntfs partition to a linux partition or use the ntfs-3g?
[06:23] <z0rz> Xman2: Cable or DLS?
[06:23] <z0rz> DSL*
[06:23] <tarelerulz> Dr_Willis , I am all install ubuntu on other drives . I have windows on the first drive and ubunt and socond drive for the play ubunut .
[06:23] <Xman2> z0rz: its working fine enough in windos
[06:23] <Xman2> windows
[06:24] <fyrestrtr> myk_: ubotu is a bot
[06:24] <Xman2> z0rz: cable
[06:24] <myk_> silly me
[06:24] <tarelerulz> I never knew it install on the first drive when install ubuntu on the second one
[06:24] <acecase> aleka, if it's a harddrive you may have better luck popin it in as a slave via ide
[06:24] <fyrestrtr> myk_: if you convert the disk, you will lose all information
[06:24] <z0rz> Xman2: You wouldn't happend to know what your interface is would you (eth0 or eth1 possibly)?
[06:24] <decaffeinated> Has anybody gotten Nvidia's drivers working with an 8800?
[06:24] <Dr_Willis> tarelerulz the live cd assumes to go to the first hd.. the alternativeinstall cd - asks where to put it.
[06:24] <mattsqz> ok, i need help guys. i have this quad xeon with 10k scsi drives all over its guts...and i need ideas. porn server is not a valid idea :P
[06:24] <ubuntuuser1> I ran ./ddrescue -n /dev/hda1 /dev/sda1 rescued.log and now I can't access any information on sda1, now it says disk-1 is the new one with only 12 gigs.  Doing mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 tells me disk-1 is mounted already as disk-1.  I should be seeing some of my 320 GB items in this instead, but I am not
[06:24] <Xman2> z0rz: its just showing eth0
[06:24] <z0rz> Xman2: What does ifconfig say?
[06:25] <Dr_Willis> decaffeinated  i see a lot of peoplke asking about that. :) I got an 8800 on my new box. but dont have linux on it.. yet.
[06:25] <z0rz> Like ifconfig eth0 | grep inet
[06:25] <Xman2> not any thing else

[06:25] <axisys> my laptop is dim when running on battery.. how do make it normal?
[06:25] <decaffeinated> I'd really like to get Ubuntu working properly on here again... I used to use it a lot when I had my 7900.
[06:25] <Dr_Willis> aleka you sure this is a good hard drive?
[06:25] <z0rz> you're*
[06:25] <myk_> there is no way to do and not lose the data then...that is the short answer to my question, I was hoping to take an easier way out, I dont have much time to spend and can't figure out how to give myself permission to write/delete on my ntfs partitioins
[06:25] <Xman2> z0rz: i was given a static ip address which i have to enter every time when i log on to my PC
[06:26] <z0rz> Xman2: You're cable provider gabe you a static ip?
[06:26] <z0rz> cable*
[06:26] <z0rz> err.. gave*
[06:26] <ice109> how do i point this ftp server vsftpd to a mounted drive?
[06:26] <aleka> Dr_Willis: it was working fine under my friends laptop until her motherboard died for no reason....tried copying files in her vista but the UAC wouldn't let me and I don't know much about vista
[06:26] <Xman2> z0rz: in the web browser and then a web page comes then i enter my uid & passwd
[06:26] <ubuntuuser1> can I run partition magic under wine?
[06:26] <Xman2> and my connection starts
[06:26] <ice109> for the anon user
[06:26] <Xman2> then
[06:27] <Xman2> .
[06:27] <Bonkers-> how do I update /etc/fonts/fonts.conf? I updated the symlinks in conf.d, but now I need to generate the file, right? I'm trying to enable bitmap fonts
[06:27] <acecase> aleka, you can disable UAC :)
[06:27] <z0rz> Xman2: So you tried entering this number they gave you into Firefox and nothing came up? Just "Page could not be displayed"
[06:27] <Dr_Willis> aleka hmm..  a power surge could of killed the mb and the hd.. Ive had bad hds show up , but then not have any actual partitions on them. :(   You got this in a USB external drive bay thing?
[06:28] <default> what is the difference between pin and bluepin?
[06:28] <lazaruslupine> ubuntuuser1, I wouldn't trust something that sensitive to run well in wine
[06:28] <kkerwin> ubuntuuser1: I don't know for certain, but something like that, I doubt VERY much. Partition Magic is going to have a lot of things on it that are pretty windows and harddrive specific.
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> ubuntuuser1 why would you want to.. 'gparted' and  its  brothers can do the same job.
[06:28] <Xman2> z0rz: no i mean i have to enter it every time i log on to comp
[06:28] <ice109> anyone anyone how do i point this vsftpd to a mounted drive?
[06:28] <z0rz> All: Does /etc/init.d/networking restart restart the DHCP Client also?
[06:28] <cjracker> z0rz, yes
[06:28] <z0rz> Xman2: You enter the ip into your browser everythime?
[06:28] <cjracker> most of the time, unless youve changed things
[06:28] <z0rz> cjracker: Thanks
[06:28] <xshad> hi guys, I've installed ubuntu for the first time. How do I change the default player? Is there any var?
[06:28] <Xman2> z0rz: yeah exatly
[06:28] <ubuntuuser1> PartitionMagic can recover lost data, I know there was a button to do that, I am having difficulty getting testdisk to do this for me, and I am starting to doubt the existence of my data on the drive now
[06:28] <z0rz> Xman2: And that's on Windows? or on Ubuntu?
[06:29] <Xman2> z0rz: and then uid & passwd
[06:29] <aleka> Dr_Willis:  Yeah.. I got it on a USB caddy/// Vista was able to show the files and folders until it got to the last folder structure [like My Pictures]  then started complaining about permissions...If it was a bad hd.. it should have been able to read it at all , I assume
[06:29] <Xman2> z0rz: windows
[06:29] <z0rz> Xman2: So your problem is that you can't access that page on Ubuntu?
[06:29] <Alija_> Is anyone having problems to get&install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[06:29] <Dr_Willis> ubuntuuser1 last i messed with partitionmagic - it came with a bootable live cd i thought.
[06:29] <ice109> anyone anyone?
[06:29] <Xman2> z0rz: yes exactly
[06:29] <xshad> default music player is rhythmbox, I would like to change it :(
[06:29] <ice109> how do i point vsftpd to a mounted drive
[06:29] <Dr_Willis> ice109 i think it may be time to track down the docs for your ftp server.    a good read of its config files is in order also.
[06:29] <acecase> aleka, did your friend have encryption enabled?
[06:30] <z0rz> Xman2: Ok try: ping 4.2.2.2
[06:30] <Xman2> z0rz: i tried that
[06:30] <aleka> acecase:  Nope...:)
[06:30] <z0rz> Xman2: Oh wait.. that probably won't work ..since you don't have an IP
[06:30] <z0rz> Xman2: Ok.. try dhclient3 eth0
[06:30] <Xman2> z0rz: it did not worked
[06:30] <z0rz> err. sudo that
[06:30] <tarelerulz> xshad , if you like me and have most you media in mp3 and avi files I would try playing one of those and when totem ask do you want to download the stuff to play that you say yes and check every package
[06:30] <z0rz> Xman2: sudo dhclient3 eth
[06:30] <z0rz> Xman2: sudo dhclient3 eth0
[06:31] <Xman2> z0rz: i can only ping my gateway in windows nothing else
[06:31] <acecase> aleka, if it IS uac causing problems you can go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System and change the key EnableLUA to 0
[06:31] <z0rz> Xman2: Can you ping your gateway in Ubuntu?
[06:31] <ice109> how do i change folder permissions
[06:31] <acecase> aleka, doesn't sound like UAC though
[06:31] <Dr_Willis> ice109 chmod command normally.
[06:31] <Xman2> z0rz: and in ubuntu i can't even ping my gateway
[06:31] <z0rz> Xman2: Sounds like you have a crappy Cable provider.. but that's another issue ;)
[06:31] <Xman2> z0rz: so what should i do now?
[06:32] <RYUTAZA> =w=
[06:32] <Xman2> z0rz: any ideas?
[06:32] <xshad> hmm, tarelerulz isn't the point :) In keyb shortcuts, i can set a key for the music player. I want to set to another player than rythmbox :)
[06:32] <aleka> acecase:  yeah.. I did try and disable UAC, and vista was complaining about not having permissions and me needing to change ownership, when I tried to change ownership, it was saying permission denied/... pretty dumb stuff.. I thought i could just mount it under ubuntu and copy her files
[06:32] <z0rz> Xman2: Well, I'd call your ISP and pretend all you use is Ubuntu and you'd like help setting up yoru connection... I think you're just not getting an IP from your modem
[06:32] <xshad> because rhytm is default
[06:33] <Xman2> z0rz: could not understand?
[06:33] <z0rz> Xman2: Because if you point out it works in Windows and not in Ubuntu they'll just say it's your fault and they won't help you
[06:33] <cowbud> xshad: edit the preferred applications
[06:33] <acecase> aleka, I take it you are using a laptop? can't install the drive as a slave on the IDE?
[06:33] <z0rz> Xman2: Call your Cable Provider and ask them to help you set it up
[06:33] <cowbud> under system->preferences
[06:33] <z0rz> Xman2: I believe your modem (which assigns your computer an IP) is not handing out an IP via DHCP
[06:33] <gerro> got all my problems fixed on my debian xfce box but then I boot up and mouse doesn't move and I just see desktop background no icons or panels :(
[06:33] <acecase> aleka, seems like any time you try to help someone, their stuff doesn't act like it should
[06:33] <tarelerulz> xshad , oh that is cool. I could get down with that myself . Shortcuts are great. I love totem with all divx , xvid and avi and mp3 , mpg and stuff I don't use anything else for media
[06:34] <Xman2> z0rz: i did that too but they said they even heard about linux ever
[06:34] <xshad> there's only internet and system tabs... is there a file for that?
[06:34] <z0rz> Xman2: Sigh.. typical
[06:34] <axisys> anyone can help with the dim issue.. ? my laptop is running off of battery and the screen is dimmed
[06:34] <Xman2> thats the main problem
[06:34] <xshad> tarelerulz i've installed elisa :) pretty nice player
[06:34] <Alija_> Is anyone having problems to get&install bcm43xx-fwcutter?
[06:34] <aleka> [23603.985647]  cramfs: wrong magic

[06:34] <tarelerulz> xshad what is nice about it ?
[06:34] <gerro> axisys: it dims to save power, change your acpid settings
[06:34] <aleka> bah... it's alright if it can't be done then...
[06:34] <xshad> i liked it :P lol
[06:35] <peepsalot> i need to login to a router over serial, but I don't understand how this is supposed to work
[06:35] <acecase> aleka, looks like the drive is corrupt. not dead just juggled some :)
[06:35] <mikebot> So, once I saw someone using ubuntu and they had a shortcut where they pressed a keyboard button and it would toggle a terminal window dropping down... how cna I do that?
[06:35] <axisys> gerro: how ? *sigh*
[06:35] <peepsalot> i think I have to use getty, but I still don't understand after looking at the man page
[06:35] <aleka> I wonder if an fschk could be run on it..
[06:35] <z0rz> Xman2: Well, I'm not sure what else to tell you w/o being there.  But I could offer my help in wording for my help :D.  Just ask: I have a Cable connection that isn't getting an IP from my modem.  My cable provider requires I login through a hot spot like web page to access the net.  Any ideas?
[06:36] <z0rz> Oh yeah and you might through in.. it works on Windows.. and you can access the login page just fine, but not on Ubuntu
[06:36] <gerro> axisys: I think mouse won't move because I switched other one with new one and I did reconfigure xorg but still not working right even tried Option "hwcursor" "on" and few other things
[06:36] <Xman2> !pastebin
[06:36] <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)
[06:37] <Jordan_U> Xman2, What is the issue you are having? ( I just joined )
[06:37] <acecase> aleka, you could try ntfs-dos boot disk and chkdsk. ntfs-dos should have better luck finding the drive
[06:37] <gerro> axisys: I've had the no icons/panel shit happen before with xfce on xubuntu too its an annoying bug with that window manager or something
[06:37] <thesource> can some one tellme hoe to formate a dvd in ubuntu
[06:37] <acecase> the best thing in the world is steve gibson's
[06:37] <dew> So my firefox isn't letting me sign on to certain websites.
[06:37] <z0rz> Jordan_U: His Cable provider requires he login via a web page to access the net.  It works fine on Ubuntu.  The issue may be related, but his main issue, is that he can't get an IP from his cable modem.
[06:37] <webpirate> thesource>> use K3b for DVD/CDR operations
[06:37] <gerro> I think I'll install blackbox or fluxbox maybe
[06:37] <gerro> I need a really light window manager
[06:38] <Jordan_U> TheSource, Format for what? Do you just want to write a data DVD?
[06:38] <z0rz> Xman2: Have you tried power cycling your modem (Unplug it for a minute and plug it back in)
[06:38] <xshad> z0rz xfce :)

[06:38] <acecase> aleka, if it's worth putting a couple dollars into getting the data I would look at SpinRite 6
[06:38] <gerro> Xman2: those things are meant to run for like near eternity so their power cycling hocus pocus wears out every so often and they start to f themself over. I hate modems :(
[06:38] <rob> Jordan_U, yes?
[06:38] <underwatercow> Is there a GUI way to force quit a program?
[06:39] <aleka> acecase:  Thanks
[06:39] <Jordan_U> rob, eVAN
[06:39] <acecase> aleka, SpinRite'l cure what ales yah
[06:39] <PureEvilGeek> any one know what i might need to do?
[06:39] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, you around?
[06:39] <rob> ah-uh
[06:39] <TheSource> K3b where do i find that
[06:39] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, howdy...
[06:39] <gerro> underwatercow: alt f4? ctrl c? umm click the x?
[06:39] <webpirate> thesource>> do you have KDE installed?
[06:39] <TheSource> yes
[06:39] <underwatercow> gerro: I mean like a ctrl+alt+delete in windows
[06:40] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, hey i'm back.  i got the device to quit disconnecting, so I know the port, but I still don't understand how to login to my device
[06:40] <TheSource> but i use gnome now
[06:40] <gerro> underwatercow: I use xfce taskmanager and have it set to do ctrl alt delete or ctrl shift esc
[06:40] <webpirate> thesource>> in terminal do this sudo apt-get install k3b
[06:40] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, good to hear....
[06:40] <gnomefreak> TheSource: sudo apt-get install k3b
[06:40] <gerro> underwatercow: have it open your task managing apt with those key combos
[06:40] <Jordan_U> TheSource, It's in Applications -> Add / Remove
[06:40] <underwatercow> gerro: does gnome have something like that?
[06:40] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, are you familiar with getty?
[06:40] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, what are you trying to use the serial connection for?
[06:40] <gerro> underwatercow: definately, I just have no clue where with them hiding options deep in source code
[06:41] <craigbass1976> fyrestrtr, got sound working.  Criminy... that was kind of a process...
[06:41] <underwatercow> gerro: I found it
[06:41] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, sure... but if yer just looking for a terminal emulation app... like Hyperterm.. you can use minicom
[06:41] <underwatercow> gerro: System Monitor
[06:41] <gerro> underwatercow: good for you
[06:41] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, i have a router that is really messed up, i'm trying to fix it.  i can't even ping it over ethernet
[06:41] <underwatercow> gerro: thanks
[06:41] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, sudo apt-get install minicom
[06:41] <peepsalot> ok
[06:41] <gerro> peepsalot: I was thinking about switching over to mingetty and running less of them like 2 or so
[06:41] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, then... after installed, issue the command "minicom -s"
[06:42] <Jordan_U> underwatercow, xkill is nice also ( when you run it whatever application you click will be killed )
[06:42] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, this will have you set up your communication params...
[06:42] <gerro> Jordan_U: that my favorite app :)
[06:42] <underwatercow> Jordan_U: that's the one I was trying to think of... isn't there a gnome shortcut for it?
[06:42] <gerro> hey what is apt-get command to do a complete reinstall of a program? (removing configurations and everything) I seriously screwed up this one
[06:43] <default> root@dark:/etc/init.d# update-rc.d add bluetooth defaultupdate-rc.d: /etc/init.d/add: file does not exist
[06:43] <Jordan_U> underwatercow, I am sure there is, and if there isn't you can create one easily enough
[06:43] <default> why does it say this
[06:43] <underwatercow> gerro: apt-get remove --purge I would think, then reinstall?
[06:43] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, go under serial port setup... and change device to /dev/ttyUSBX  where X is the numeric value seen in your /var/log/messages
[06:43] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, ok, i'm trying to set it up now
[06:43] <fyrestrtr> gerro: sudo apt-get remove --purge program && sudo apt-get install prorgam
[06:43] <gerro> fyrestrtr: thx!
[06:44] <gerro> fyrestrtr: the double -- and remove then purge always confuses me
[06:44] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, cool... and after you set up the serial ports... under "Modem and dialing"... erase all values in the init string... and reset string...
[06:44] <TheSource> is there a way to fix ubuntu will out haveing to reinstall it all over
[06:44] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, if i have no hardware flow control, do I need software flow control?
[06:44] <default> is this a correct way to add hit
[06:44] <TheSource> and can u make a backup cd of the sys
[06:44] <default> hit = this
[06:44] <Kr0ntab> shouldnt hurt...
[06:44] <fyrestrtr> gerro: you need -- when the argument has more than one character in it, its somewhat of a standard.
[06:44] <PureEvilGeek> I'm trying to remotely access a share on my ubuntu 7.04 desktop and it won't let me in with my username and password. do i have to set a seperate one for smb and if so where?
[06:45] <Kr0ntab> after you finish.. you should save this as yer default... from the menu...
[06:45] <Geeunkown> asdf
[06:45] <Jordan_U> TheSource, Yes, to save space you can also just back up your home folder and your application list...
[06:45] <gerro> fyrestrtr: well apt-get "install" has no --
[06:45] <Jordan_U> !clone | TheSource
[06:45] <ubotu> TheSource: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[06:46] <fyrestrtr> gerro: install is not a command line switch.
[06:46] <gerro> fyrestrtr: exactly!
[06:46] <TheSource> cool thanks
[06:46] <fyrestrtr> gerro: apt-get [command]  [options] 
[06:46] <dew> exit
[06:46] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, did you erase the init and reset strings... and save the settings as yer defaults?
[06:47] <Jordan_U> TheSource, Why do you need to re-install, or were you just asking?
[06:47] <dew> whoops, this isn't my terminal
[06:47] <fyrestrtr> the options are what have the - and the --
[06:47] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, yeah, i'm in!
[06:47] <TheSource> ohh i was just asking  couse some time i mess thing up
[06:47] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, word!
[06:47] <CoasterMaster> How do I control what wireless network Ubuntu defaults to?
[06:47] <TheSource> and i had this working for like 1yr now
[06:47] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, this a cisco router?  or somethin else...
[06:47] <TheSource> have a ton of stuff i dont want to have to redo id that happend
[06:48] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, linksys wrtsl54gs
[06:48] <Kr0ntab> cool
[06:48] <peepsalot> had to solder up the serial port
[06:48] <Kr0ntab> i was gonna say.. hehe
[06:48] <Kr0ntab> didnt know they came with serial...
[06:48] <webpirate> anyone from canada in here?
[06:49] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, that serial converter I got is pretty nice though, uses a 3.5mm headphone jack.  just solder 3 wires.
[06:49] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, oh thats cool....
[06:49] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, well good deal... glad its working for you.
[06:50] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, the udev rules file... is that what helped ya out finally?
[06:50] <h1st0> CoasterMaster: you can set the essid of the card.  Or use the network manager
[06:50] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, i just removed the brltty package entirely
[06:50] <Kr0ntab> ahh... did that remove other packages?
[06:51] <peepsalot> something like x11-brltty
[06:51] <peepsalot> i think that was it
[06:51] <davy> hello, I'm having problems graving cd's or dvd for some time, is there anyone else who had the same problem?
[06:51] <h1st0> davy: what is graving a cd?
[06:52] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, yeah its a package for the blind....
[06:52] <davy> to burn (i'm sorry by now you will probably know i use graveman to do so)
[06:52] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, apparently it's suppose to be fixed upstream...
[06:53] <CoasterMaster> h1st0, thanks, but I found what I was looking for (unsetting the SSIDs in the gconf-editor)
[06:53] <axisys> gerro: i just had to use the brightness key in my laptop to fix the dim ...duh!!
[06:53] <h1st0> davy: No idea writing works just fine here. But I use the built in burning
[06:53] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, now just a reminder... brltty is also a dependency for ubuntu-desktop... a meta package that was probably also removed when you removed brltty...
[06:54] <davy> :), thx, it worked fine before untill I installed a program, but I can't remember which unfortunately
[06:54] <gerro> fyrestrtr: hmm guess what I was looking for wasn't that simple. How would I reinstall a meta package?
[06:54] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, it doesnt do anything bad... but if you ever perform and upgrade... you'll probably want ubuntu-desktop to install a number of other packages.  just keep it in mind for the future.
[06:54] <davy> I'm going through the logs, and see if there is anything strange
[06:55] <gerro> fyrestrtr: because I sorta broke my window manager...
[06:55] <GNine> !synaptic
[06:55] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[06:55] <peepsalot> Kr0ntab, hmm ok. well, it didn't mention removing ubuntu-desktop when i removed it
[06:56] <Kr0ntab> peepsalot, cool.. well glad everything worked out.
[06:56] <h1st0> gerro: just sudo apt-get instlal <packagename>  if the package is there all its depends will be.
[06:56] <Jordan_U> gerro, You install a meta package just like any other package
[06:56] <gilster> i need some help with scp?
[06:56] <h1st0> !ask | gilster
[06:56] <ubotu> gilster: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:56] <ubuntu> so i'm in root and i can't change folder permissions

[06:56] <ubuntu> everytime i change em they get changed back
[06:56] <ubuntu> how do i change my nick

[06:57] <noodles13> PureEvilGeek: have you tried just dragging it over?
[06:57] <ma1> i'm logged in as root
[06:57] <gilster> i am using scp now to transfer files on network speed is only at 450-500 . It should be much faster i assumed
[06:57] <gilster> any suggestions
[06:57] <h1st0> ma1: chmod
[06:57] <gilster> ?
[06:57] <Jordan_U> ma1, You should never log in as root
[06:57] <ma1> yea yea yea
[06:57] <ma1> chmod what
[06:57] <gerro> h1st0 Jordan_U: I highly doubt my entire window manager is 26kb....
[06:58] <GNine> logged in as root.  ha!
[06:58] <h1st0> ma1: What permissions do you want to set?
[06:58] <ma1> when i right click the folder theres a tab called permissions
[06:58] <ma1> i can't change any of those
[06:58] <h1st0> gilster: maybe you hav a firewall on your router or something?
[06:58] <chuy_max> I've been experiencing system crashes every now and then (computer freezes suddenly), I'm running a P4 3 GHz with HT, 256 MB RAM, does anyone know if my CPU has an issue like this?
[06:58] <ex_> Jordan_U Why never login as root I ask but I never get a straight answer
[06:58] <Jordan_U> gerro, The point of a meta-package is that when you install it it makes sure all of the packages it "depends" on are also installed, it contains no binary itself
[06:58] <gilster> hlst0: on my routers
[06:58] <gilster> ?
[06:59] <ma1> !chmod
[06:59] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[06:59] <h1st0> ma1: open a terminal and type in gksu nautilus
[06:59] <ma1> so how do i use chmod
[06:59] <GNine> root is danger zone.. specially if no user experience
[06:59] <ma1> i'm in xubuntu
[06:59] <Kr0ntab> gilster, there might be a slight overhead due to encryption... but thats still a tad slow.. what network lies between hosts...
[06:59] <h1st0> ma1: that will give you a root file browser to do it.
[06:59] <gerro> Jordan_U: that's perfectly fine so long as it works both ways when I wish to remove it and dependencies
[06:59] <gerro> Jordan_U: but it doesn't...
[06:59] <h1st0> ma1: ahh well open a terminal. and cd to the directory you want to change the file in.
[06:59] <davy> in the message log it says 'drive ready SeekComplete Error'
[06:59] <Jordan_U> ex_, It is a security risk ( especially if you actually log into gnome as root ) and makes it much easier to shoot yourself in the foot and break your system
[06:59] <ma1> and then?
[06:59] <h1st0> ma1: What permissions do you want to change?
[07:00] <Kr0ntab> gilster, are the two machines on the same local area network?  on a single switch?  over wireless?
[07:00] <Jordan_U> gerro, What do you mean?
[07:00] <ma1> i'm trying to get an anon user to be able to login and see this directory
[07:00] <ex_> Jordan_U okay thanks man :)
[07:00] <ma1> on an ftp server
[07:00] <gilster> Kr0ntab: i got two machines here. one is wired to router one is wireless
[07:00] <gerro> Jordan_U: I mean it shovels in programs and stuff but when I try to remove the meta package it doesn't touch the programs installed, however if they aren't installed and I install the meta package it puts them on there
[07:00] <Jordan_U> ex_, np :)
[07:00] <h1st0> ma1: chmod a+r /path/to/directory
[07:00] <default> what does this command do
[07:00] <default>  update-rc.d bluetooth defaults
[07:00] <skinnypuppy> I'm about to try out a different video card in my system, is there anything else other than xorg.conf that I should make certain is backed up?
[07:01] <h1st0> default: adds bluetooth to start up init.
[07:01] <Kr0ntab> gilster, what speed is the wireless host associated at?
[07:01] <gerro> Jordan_U: I'm just going to download the package and tear it apart for list of apps it installs
[07:01] <h1st0> skinnypuppy: not really
[07:01] <ex_> Is there an Adobe Flash Player for the 64 bit version of Ubuntu?
[07:01] <Jordan_U> gerro, Use apt-get autoremove to remove packages that were installed by meta-packages that you no longer have
[07:01] <h1st0> ex_: no
[07:01] <jpastore> does anyone know why nm-tool would not show my wifi card even though it's there
[07:01] <gilster> Kr0ntab: i am not sure. how can i find that out
[07:01] <Kr0ntab> gilster, if its a linux host... try "iwconfig" to give you this info...
[07:01] <ex_> damn
[07:01] <gerro> Jordan_U: thank you!! *hugs*
[07:01] <WaltzingAlong> ex_: basically it has to do with the philosophy employed by unix and derivatives; users use the system, administrator administrates. notice the separation
[07:01] <h1st0> ex_: you have to run ie or firefox through wine I believe.
[07:01] <ma1> h1st0 how do i know it worked
[07:01] <jpastore> could this be a driver issue? even though ti's working for me now?
[07:01] <scarter> hp/cpq v3000z, nvidia 6150 w/ ver. 100.14.11, amd x2, ubuntu amd64. suspend or hibernate will not resume. what setting am i missing to unload the driver prior to suspend/hibernate and load during resume?
[07:01] <gilster> right
[07:01] <Jordan_U> gerro, np :)
[07:01] <h1st0> ma1: well everyone has read access now to that folder
[07:01] <Frogzoo> jpastore: define "it's there" is the driver loaded?
[07:02] <Cyborg235-> hi all
[07:02] <h1st0> ma1: a+r  is like saying "all + read"
[07:02] <jpastore> Frogzoo, well, it shows up in ifconfig I'
[07:02] <h1st0> ma1: you need to read some basics on linux though.
[07:02] <WaltzingAlong> ex_: adobe has not provided a 64bit flash. you could run a 32bit chroot environment for that
[07:02] <jpastore> Frogzoo, sorry... I'm using eht1 right now which is my wifi card. I'll do an lsmod in a sec
[07:02] <Cyborg235-> can i set up my text color in Xchat  please
[07:02] <Jordan_U> !flash64 | ex_
[07:02] <ubotu> ex_: 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
[07:02] <Frogzoo> jpastore: that's fine then, iwconfig will show it then?
[07:02] <skinnypuppy> hlst0 , so all it would take to restore the previous card would be boot into terminal and rename the xorg.backup file and reboot?
[07:02] <Cyborg235-> beside of using CTRL+K
[07:02] <gerro> Jordan_U: there is no such command...
[07:03] <ice109> h1st0 nope didn't work
[07:03] <default> h1st0, how do i check if this is already started when linux boots
[07:03] <webpirate> I have a script for flash install.....give me email and I can send it to you
[07:03] <ice109> still can't see the directory from my ftp client
[07:03] <jpastore> Frogzoo, yes
[07:03] <Frogzoo> jpastore: if you have eth1, the driver for it's working
[07:03] <gilster> Kr0ntab: when i do iwconfig on my wireless laptop it gives me info and says 5mbit/sec
[07:03] <Cyborg235-> anyone can help please
[07:03] <Jordan_U> gerro, sudo apt-get autoremove ? Are you running 6.04 or below?
[07:03] <Frogzoo> jpastore: so for whatever reason, it's an nm-config issue
[07:03] <jpastore> Frogzoo, but network manager doesn't with nm-tool so my vpn won't start
[07:03] <gilster> Kr0ntab: 5mbit
[07:03] <jpastore> Frogzoo, any idea how to resolve it?
[07:03] <gerro> Jordan_U: yes I'm root trying the command
[07:03] <gilster> Kr0ntab: it is an atheros card
[07:04] <gerro> Jordan_U: oh crap this my debian etch box :(
[07:04] <jpastore> Frogzoo, I dont' have that command or are you talking about the gui?
[07:04] <ice109> i don't understand why i can't change folder permissions from the filemanager
[07:04] <gerro> Jordan_U: isn't apt-get the same though?
[07:04] <Kr0ntab> gilster, what does the bit rate say exactly...
[07:04] <Frogzoo> jpastore: I meant nm-tool I guess
[07:04] <gilster> Kr0ntab: in iwconfig
[07:04] <GNine> 3 bogies on the run.. this session is kind of fast.. whew
[07:04] <Kr0ntab> for example....  Bit Rate:54 Mb/s
[07:05] <Kr0ntab> gilster, yes...
[07:05] <Jordan_U> gerro, Ahh, etch doesn't have the version of apt-get with autoremove, it's a relatively new feature in apt ( though aptitude has had it for as long as I can remember )
[07:05] <Artemis3> in etch you probably don't have sudo so omit that if you are root :P
[07:05] <GNine> duh
[07:05] <gilster> Kr0ntab: it says 5 mb/s
[07:05] <gerro> Jordan_U: how would I use aptitude to do it then?
[07:05] <Kr0ntab> gilster, very very slow...
[07:05] <gilster> indeed
[07:05] <Artemis3> Jordan_U, last time i checked, etch has the autoremove thing...
[07:06] <Jordan_U> gerro, you can use deborphan to help find the orphaned packages
[07:06] <gilster> Kr0ntab: why is that?
[07:06] <Kr0ntab> gilster, yer link quality... singnal level... and noise level...
[07:06] <gerro> Jordan_U: I never really bothered with aptitude just apt-get or dpkg, usually use synaptic with gui, speaking of which is there a liter app than synaptic that I can use?
[07:06] <punsad> deborphan is a great
[07:06] <Kr0ntab> gilos, what are they?
[07:06] <Kr0ntab> oops
[07:06] <Jordan_U> gerro, You can only use aptitude to remove dependencies of packages you installed with aptitude :(
[07:06] <Kr0ntab> gilster,  what are they?
[07:06] <GNine> bs .. check your router .. talk to it
[07:06] <skinnypuppy> Which is the correct xorg.conf file to backup /etc/X11 or /var/lib/x11 ? Noob Question sorry
[07:07] <Artemis3>  /etc/X11
[07:07] <gilster> Kr0ntab: the routher is a simple Dlink 524
[07:07] <Frogzoo> skinnypuppy: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:07] <skinnypuppy> thanks all
[07:07] <jpastore> Frogzoo, ok...I'm reading about there being an old about about this...I guess they never got around to fixing it
[07:07] <gerro> Jordan_U: deborphan lists nothing about the meta package I was trying to remove but it says some mesa-dri package is orphaned which probably why I can't get mesa driver working on that comp :/
[07:07] <Kr0ntab> gilster, so this really isn't an ubuntu question... more of a wireless and scp question... lets take this offline.  i'll send you a query...
[07:08] <GNine> a slow connection is a connection .. what you need is to speak the same language now
[07:08] <gerro> Jordan_U: this comp is so jacked up I'm just going to reinstall and try again perhaps
[07:09] <WaltzingAlong> ice109: makes sense to me that the file manager would be a place from which one ought to be able to change permissions
[07:09] <ice109> can someone help me , i'm trying to serve a mounted drive through an ftp server and when i connecte with a client nothing shows up in the directory
[07:09] <pawan> hi
[07:09] <gerro> Jordan_U: thx for help
[07:09] <pawan> can we run windows games in ubuntu
[07:09] <ice109> waltzingalong then why can't i do it
[07:10] <Jordan_U> gerro, np
[07:10] <pawan> hello
[07:10] <GNine> you change permissions as root.. be careful of your choices
[07:10] <ice109> Gnine , it's not working
[07:10] <pawan> can we run windows games in ubuntu
[07:10] <ice109> i change the pulldown menu and it just reversts
[07:10] <Jordan_U> pawan, Some run in wine
[07:11] <Frogzoo> ice109: all ftp servers have pretty tight default security settings, check your docs
[07:11] <Jordan_U> !appdb | pawan
[07:11] <ubotu> pawan: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[07:11] <ice109> frogzoo i've already change all the necessary security settings
[07:11] <pawan> i want to play virtua tennis 3 in ubuntu
[07:11] <fujin> good luck on that little venture
[07:11] <Frogzoo> ice109: anything in the ftpd logs?
[07:12] <ice109> actually maybe i haven't flipped the right setting
[07:12] <pawan> i installed it
[07:12] <pawan> but not opening
[07:13] <Frogzoo> pawan: you've already been given a link
[07:13] <pawan> can we play virtua tennis 3 in ubuntu
[07:14] <Frogzoo> pawan: also don't use the ubuntu wine repo which is dated, use the budgetdedicated repo mentioned in the ubuntu wiki doc
[07:14] <Frogzoo> !wine | pawan
[07:14] <ubotu> pawan: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:14] <underwatercow> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1
[07:14] <bruenig> start disallowing ubuntu repos on the basis that they are dated and you find you have nothing left
[07:14] <ice109> this is seriously the most difficult time i have ever had transferring files from one computer to the other over a network
[07:14] <pawan> hello
[07:14] <GNine> tru
[07:15] <Frogzoo> bruenig: for wine, lots of stuff doesn't work with the older releases (eg. ubuntus)
[07:15] <GNine> perspective is important
[07:15] <Jordan_U> bruenig, For some things it is more important, like the fact that the wine team does not support releases more than a few weeks old
[07:15] <pawan> i am not able to  play virtua tennis 3 in ubuntu
[07:15] <Frogzoo> GNine: that's your point of view
[07:16] <GNine> point of view, yes.. you go ahead and make YOUR system unstable if you want to
[07:16] <pawan> can we use the wine command line
[07:16] <pawan> i want to run the vt3.exe file
[07:16] <pawan> when i double click nothing happens
[07:17] <Frogzoo> pawan: you've already been given links - time for you to help yourself
[07:17] <ice109> can someone help me, how do i change file permissions
[07:17] <Frogzoo> ice109: chmod
[07:17] <Jordan_U> !permissions | ice109
[07:17] <ubotu> ice109: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[07:17] <ice109> a little more?
[07:17] <pawan> it doest works
[07:18] <pawan> how to point to program files sega wine folder
[07:18] <pawan> from terminal
[07:18] <Frogzoo> pawan: you've already been helped, if you won't read those links, we can't do any more for you
[07:19] <jaybob> i was wondering if any one know how to get wine to work i installed it but its showing all my c program files as empty and stuff.
[07:19] <Jordan_U> jaybob, It will be empty until you install something
[07:19] <jpastore> Frogzoo, I'm reading that someone may have fixed this by enabling thendiswrapper...I'm not suing it now, will enabling break my wifi?
[07:20] <astro76> jaybob, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine
[07:20] <ice109> how do i change the permissions of all the files in mounted drive?
[07:20] <pawan> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=8650&iTestingId=14053
[07:20] <Frogzoo> jpastore: ndiswrapper breaks stuff and can be hard to get working right
[07:20] <pawan> how to install it
[07:21] <jaybob> well i wanted to port some of my games and programs that are installed on my xp.
[07:21] <jaybob> is there some simple way of doing that without "installing"
[07:21] <benny9000> anyone using gnunet on feisty?
[07:21] <metaborn> Make sure it's mouted rw and then do a :: sudo chmod -R /mountpoint
[07:21] <Jordan_U> ice109, Is it a filesystem that supports UNIX file permissions ( ie not ntfs or fat ) ?
[07:21] <ice109> fat
[07:21] <ice109> ahh
[07:21] <ice109> god damnit
[07:21] <ice109> i just remembered
[07:21] <astro76> ice109, you'd use the recursive option for chmod, chmod -R <permission> <directory>
[07:21] <ice109> its fat32
[07:21] <prohna> ahoy hoy

[07:22] <prohna> i got it to compile
[07:22] <prohna> but it crashes with no error or anything
[07:23] <prohna> after like 20 seconds
[07:23] <pawan> hello
[07:23] <ice109> i'm trying to get an ftp server to serve this mounted fat32 drive

[07:23] <benny9000> what ftp server you sing ice109?
[07:23] <jaybob> this link is not helping solve my problem
[07:23] <ice109> vsftpd
[07:24] <jaybob> i cant install it becase when i type "wine c:\ or any thing its not found.
[07:24] <Jordan_U> jaybob, I am not sure what the problem is with program files being empty unless you have installed something
[07:24] <ironfroggy> any idea why i get "Couldn't find package darcs" even tho ive installed it before on ubuntu?
[07:24] <astro76> jaybob, there's no c:, you do wine path/to/program.exe
[07:24] <jaybob> well i have it all installed on my xp drive
[07:25] <jaybob> i tryed that to
[07:25] <jaybob> and it cant find it
[07:25] <linuxpoet> stupid question... find / -name +mmin +5 returns 100 files
[07:25] <astro76> jaybob, you need to install it with wine
[07:25] <jaybob> i copyed my intire game drive over.
[07:25] <linuxpoet> I want to pipe it through rm
[07:25] <Jordan_U> jaybob, You can't run it off your xp drive AFIK, it must be installed in wine
[07:25] <linuxpoet> find / -name +mmin +5|rm -f -
[07:25] <linuxpoet> doesn't work
[07:25] <linuxpoet> whta am I missing
[07:25] <jaybob> alright well how do i install it on wine then becase im not understand ing that
[07:25] <ice109> ok is anyone familiar with any ftps they can help me configure?
[07:26] <ice109> cause i'm not having any lucky with vsftpd
[07:26] <Jordan_U> jaybob, Just run the install program from wine
[07:26] <jaybob> it wont let me lol it says its not found
[07:26] <jaybob> is what im trying to get at
[07:26] <prohna> if i need to install X11 how do i know which one to install from synaptic?
[07:26] <underwatercow> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1
[07:26] <prohna> as well as crypt libraries
[07:27] <Jordan_U> jaybob, if the setup.exe is on your desktop you would do "wine Desktop/setup.exe" for instance
[07:27] <astro76> linuxpoet, linuxpoet find / -name +mmin +5 -exec rm -f {} \;
[07:27] <Jordan_U> prohna, Did you do a server / alternate install?
[07:27] <Say10> isnt ubuntu a pokemon?
[07:27] <Jordan_U> Say10, no
[07:28] <prohna> just tried to install the client
[07:28] <prohna> it seemed to compile right
[07:28] <prohna> alot of errors but i got a binary
[07:28] <astro76> underwatercow, why are you repeatedly pasting that?
[07:28] <prohna> and it starts
[07:28] <faileas> Say10: its swahili for something...
[07:28] <prohna> once i pick a server to join and it gets to character creation after about 10 seconds it closes
[07:28] <underwatercow> astro76: I pasted it twice, the second time to see if ubotu commented on it the same as in ubuntu+1
[07:29] <prohna> its very frustrating
[07:30] <jaybob> oh crap lol i had a syntax error and i just thought there was a difrent way i hate linux some times
[07:30] <Jordan_U> prohna, Do you know what X11 is?
[07:30] <Bjornalf> hi can anyone help me figure out what i'll need to do to restore grub after a post-linux winxp install? i know it's going to overwrite the mbr
[07:30] <prohna> not really
[07:30] <Say10> nevermind guys, the pokemon was DODUO http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doduo#Doduo
[07:30] <astro76> underwatercow, ah I see... afaik they have more (useless) stuff turned on in other channels
[07:30] <prohna> the install help for tomenet said i needed X11
[07:30] <Jordan_U> !grub | Bjornalf
[07:30] <ubotu> Bjornalf: 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
[07:30] <Bjornalf> ty
[07:30] <prohna> but synaptic has tons of different libraries
[07:30] <prohna> so i just installed a couple lol
[07:31] <prohna> when i didnt have them installed it wouldnt compile period
[07:31] <prohna> now it does
[07:31] <prohna> i think it has something to do with fonts in terminal or something
[07:31] <Jordan_U> prohna, X is simply what lets you display the GUI on the screen, you already have it installed
[07:31] <prohna> okay
[07:31] <prohna> do you know what tomenet is?
[07:32] <astro76> Jordan_U, not the -dev packages though
[07:32] <Jordan_U> prohna, You may need headers for X to complile some things, but that is something different
[07:32] <prohna> yeah
[07:32] <prohna> i got it to compile though
[07:32] <prohna> its just crashing or something
[07:32] <zf-daily> hi, for some reason, my box's date has been reset back to 2002. wtf? i didn't even do anything, why did this happen?   so now my next questions. what is the best way to set current today's date ?
[07:32] <prohna> and i cant figure out how to find out why without an error message or something
[07:33] <Myrtti> zf-daily: ntp
[07:33] <tazgodx> can anyone help me install drivers for my wireless card D-Link DWL-520+ on gutsy?
[07:33] <Bogus8> I'm trying to run 7.04 on a dell deminsion 3000... it's freezing after the cd boot menu screen (I have tried noapic nolapic and it still goes blank)
[07:33] <underwatercow> somehow the font in my terminal became supersmall... can anyone help?
[07:33] <prohna> oh man taz i tried something along those lines the other day
[07:33] <prohna> yer in for a headache
[07:33] <tazgodx> lol
[07:33] <mossby> Question: What file do I edit if I want to add a program to the "start up" list.. so that it opens upon boot... also is there a GUI hidden in Ubuntu for this purpose?
[07:33] <Frogzoo> underwatercow: -> #ubuntu+1 if that's your issue
[07:33] <tazgodx> thats just great....
[07:33] <astro76> !gutsy | tazgodx
[07:33] <ubotu> tazgodx: 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
[07:34] <underwatercow> Frogzoo: is that a Gutsy issue?
[07:34] <Frogzoo> underwatercow: it is
[07:34] <underwatercow> Frogzoo: thanks
[07:34] <Frogzoo> underwatercow: but if you're running feisty, say so
[07:34] <underwatercow> Frogzoo: nope, Gutsy
[07:34] <BernieMac> when in October will the final version of gutsy be released?
[07:34] <Bogus8> anyone got any ideas?
[07:34] <underwatercow> BernieMax: 18th I think is the plan?
[07:35] <prohna> yes
[07:35] <Frogzoo> underwatercow: ok, well here's not the right place for you
[07:35] <BernieMac> underwatercow, woot! haha thanks
[07:35] <Jordan_U> Bogus8, If you are sure you want to install it ( not just test the LiveCD ) you could try using the Alternate install CD
[07:35] <prohna> Bogus8, yes i have issues
[07:35] <astro76> Bogus8, what video card?
[07:35] <underwatercow> Frogzoo: I didn't think it was a Gutsy question, otherwise I would have gone in there
[07:35] <Bogus8> Jordan_U: no, I need to recover some stuff of the HD (the current OS is hosed)
[07:35] <Bogus8> astro76: I think it's i810 (built on)
[07:36] <Jordan_U> Bogus8, Might try Knoppix, do you get any errors?
[07:37] <Bogus8> Jordan_U: nope, it get a little green matrix like stuff at the top for a sec before "loading kernel" then it goes blank
[07:37] <mikebot> I accidently moved my 'internt' menu into the 'accessories' menu and can't move it out.. Is there a way to do this?
[07:37] <Bogus8> astro76: intel 865gv (it seems)
[07:37] <Jordan_U> Bogaurd, Have you done the integrity test to see if the CD burned and is being read properly?

[07:38] <eomer> is there a guide about downgrading the kernel i can read?
[07:38] <prohna> so what does this look like
[07:38] <prohna> gcc -g -pipe -Wall -D"USE_X11" -D"USE_GCU" -I/usr/X11R6/include -DDEFAULT_PATH="\"./lib\"" -O3 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs  -Iserver -Iserver/lua -o client/lua_bind.o -c client/lua_bind.c
[07:38] <rabies> eomer: downgrading?
[07:39] <Bogus8> astro76: you got any suggestions?
[07:39] <LoneShadow> !hibernate
[07:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hibernate - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:39] <ubuntu_> question about MBRs:  if I have multiple bootable disks, do I have MBRs on each disk?
[07:39] <bruenig> eomer, it's just like upgrading but the other way
[07:39] <Bogus8> there has to be some arguement to pass... No?
[07:39] <rabies> prohna: a gcc command to compile lua w/ x support?
[07:39] <eomer> yeah, going form version 2.6.20 to 2.6.12
[07:39] <prohna> missing declarations though
[07:39] <astro76> Bogus8, same as Jordan_U suggested
[07:39] <prohna> thats the main error im getting trying to compile this
[07:39] <rabies> eomer: well...its prolly the same as upgrading
[07:39] <Jordan_U> eomer, Why are you downgrading, and are you trying to use a kernel that you had installed before?
[07:40] <rabies> eomer: i mean the tools are the same unless you're going to 2.4.xx
[07:40] <eomer> no, i downloaded and installed ubuntu with 2.6.20 and i need 2.6.12
[07:40] <rabies> eomer: yep. the same as upgrading, get the source, compile, etc.'
[07:40] <eomer> if i download that version of the kernel form kernel.org... it should work right?
[07:40] <Jordan_U> eomer, Why?
[07:40] <rabies> eomer: if you compile it properly
[07:40] <rabies> eomer: and install it
[07:41] <rabies> eomer: and update lilo or grub
[07:41] <eomer> is there any howto that teach me that?
[07:41] <rabies> eomer: sure
[07:41] <rabies> eomer: i'd check the ubuntu wiki
[07:41] <hmhowie> yeah. everything should work. i can't think of any userland changes between 2.6.12 and 2.6.20
[07:41] <eomer> could you redirect it to me?
[07:41] <rabies> eomer: i dont know it, look it up
[07:41] <Jordan_U> !kernel | eomer
[07:41] <ubotu> eomer: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[07:41] <Jordan_U> eomer, Why do you need that specific version?
[07:42] <eomer> it seems there are problems with the pcmcia wireless cards
[07:42] <eomer> with newer kernles
[07:42] <hmhowie> just out of curiosity, why do you need 2.6.12?
[07:42] <eomer> and also with wireless drivers
[07:42] <rabies> eomer: this channel is for helping people, we arent the helpdesk =P
[07:42] <eomer> i know, sorry
[07:42] <Bogus8> Jordan_U, astro76: Knoppix 4 is working... does that give any insight?
[07:42] <zf-daily> thx fixed it
[07:43] <alecwh> For some odd reason, when I click on the volume button on my gnome panel, and go to "Switches", there isn't a switch for headphones. Can someone help me solve this? It's required for listening to music at my school. :(
[07:43] <Jordan_U> eomer, Are you having problems? I am not.
[07:43] <astro76> Bogus8, means you can definitely get it working using the alternate cd to install, I don't know if there are any workarounds for the livecd
[07:43] <Myrtti> zf-daily: np
[07:43] <rabies> alecwh: alsa problem
[07:43] <alecwh> rabies, how do I fix it?
[07:43] <Bogus8> astro76: poo i carry that disc with me everywhere... any "works on everything" live disc out there?
[07:43] <rabies> alecwh: well i'd install alsamixer and see if theres an option to mute
[07:44] <rabies> alecwh: if not then i'd check out #alsa
[07:44] <alecwh> ok.
[07:44] <alecwh> thanks.
[07:44] <rabies> alecwh: your drivers might be buggy
[07:44] <rabies> alecwh: np
[07:44] <astro76> Bogus8, you have the only ubuntu live disc there is
[07:44] <eomer> hmmm... yeah. when i try to compile some tools for packet injection using wireless cards i get a lot of errors regarding linux headers, i've updated them, downloaded libraries and nothing is working. i saw it working in a 2.6.12 kernel, so, i'll give it a try
[07:44] <Jordan_U> Bogus8, Knoppix is probably the best
[07:44] <hmhowie> oh, okay. i'm using a standard cisco aeronet 350 and it works on every kernel i've tried :)
[07:44] <rabies> eomer: trying to crack your neightbor's WEP eh?
[07:44] <Bamnana> Emerald Issue anyone willing to help me plz?
[07:44] <Bogus8> astro76: I meant any distro
[07:44] <rabies> neighbor
[07:44] <Bogus8> Jordan_U: thanks... guess I'll keep that in my bag of tricks as well
[07:45] <astro76> Bogus8, you mean to use as livecd always?
[07:45] <Bogus8> astro76: correct
[07:45] <anir> hello .. How are you gentlemen
[07:45] <rabies> eomer: for shame!
[07:45] <hmhowie> eomer: what tools are you trying to compile, btw? maybe i can have a look at the source
[07:45] <seamus7> hi.. what is the specific text to add to my /etc/network/interfaces file in order to set up a static ip using wpa2 security?
[07:45] <eomer> betterm trying to crack my own wpa!
[07:46] <rabies> seamus7: wpa_supplicant and NetworkManager
[07:46] <rabies> seamus7: you need both for it to be easy
[07:46] <rabies> seamus7: those are programs btw
[07:46] <progek> Anyone know what could cause VLC to play DVDs like this-> http://209.129.8.8/~erick/vlc.png ?
[07:47] <eomer> hmhowie: it is a set of tools called airbase, they were coded by Johnny Cache, it has tools like pcap2air, wepcrack
[07:47] <anir> umm.. I need a small help..
[07:47] <seamus7> rabies: I have Network Manager ... I think I always used wep security previously when setting up a static ip ...
[07:47] <Jordan_U> progek, DRM'd DVDs?
[07:47] <progek> Hi Jordan_U I have that enabled
[07:47] <rabies> seamus7: you need wpa_supplicant to do wpa on linux, NetworkManager supports it seamlessly
[07:47] <progek> it starts to play fine when it shows the copyright etc
[07:47] <hmhowie> eomae, just a second. i'll fire up the linux box and try to compile them :)
[07:47] <progek> movie rating
[07:47] <rabies> seamus7: otherwise you need to set up wpa_supplicant to start on boot and to connect automatically
[07:47] <eomer> hmhowie: i'm at the last step of the installation proces, but when trying to do the make... i get the errors... errors regarding the wireless.h header
[07:47] <progek> but once the film starts it looks like that
[07:48] <hmhowie> eomer. a-ha. a lot of work has been done in wireless.h since the days of 2.6.12
[07:48] <anir> I have downloaded the real player with extension .bin and plash player with ext .tar.gz to my desktop.. now I dont know how to install
[07:48] <h1st0> anir: you don't need to download flash player
[07:48] <rabies> anir: and you dont need real player
[07:48] <h1st0> anir: just sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[07:48] <Jordan_U> progek, But it is DRM'd? ( trying to pinpoint where it is failing, not saying that you don't have it setup correctly )
[07:48] <eomer> hmhowie: i know, but maybe that work is creating the trouble
[07:48] <anir> oh..
[07:49] <anir> Macromedia Plash player?
[07:49] <eomer> hmhowie: would you like to see the errors i get?
[07:49] <rabies> anir: flash
[07:49] <DerangedDingo> progek: maybe a problem with your preferences? (video output filter maybe??)
[07:49] <Jordan_U> anir, Use Appliations -> Add / Remove instead
[07:49] <anir> rabies: yes
[07:49] <seamus7> rabies: I checked and I have wpa_supplicant already installed .. since Network Manager doesn't support static ip's ... I need to add the appropriate text manually to the /etc/network/interfaces file ... do you know what the text might be?
[07:49] <eomer> by the way, i've google that with no success at all.... the close i got was from a MacOS user.
[07:50] <eomer> with the same problem
[07:50] <hmhowie> emoer: yeah, can you paste the errors to pastebin?
[07:50] <eomer> hmhowie: yeah, hold on
[07:50] <rabies> seamus7: not off the top of my head, although im sure the ubuntu forms might be helpful
[07:51] <anir> Jordan_U: ok.. thank you
[07:51] <rabies> seamus7: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=263136
[07:51] <seamus7> rabies: ok thx.
[07:52] <Bamnana> Can anyone help me? or just tell me were to seek for help about a problem i have with emerald and beryl
[07:52] <Jordan_U> anir, np, Installing applications in Linux is much different from Windows ( IMO easier / better )
[07:52] <progek> Jordan_U I'm not sure if it's drm'd or not, I've tried several movies though and they all look like that. DerangedDingo, thanks but I couldn't find that in vlc
[07:52] <astro76> !beryl | Bamnana
[07:52] <ubotu> Bamnana: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:52] <Bamnana> thanx alot
[07:52] <anir> Jordan_U: yeah.. Its a bit different.. but once i learn it it will be easy .. ;)
[07:52] <Jordan_U> progek, Have you tried a home movie? ( almost all commercial DVDs have DRM )
[07:53] <progek> no but thats a good idea
[07:53] <progek> I'll try that
[07:54] <dwxreaper> i love this ubuntu but vnc is so damn slow :/
[07:54] <dwxreaper> where remote desktop is fast as hell, and all i use is remote connection
[07:54] <s0y> anyone use kiba dock?
[07:54] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, You might prefer ssh -X then
[07:54] <dwxreaper> how do i make it fast.
[07:54] <astro76> dwxreaper, what is the client?
[07:55] <dwxreaper> jordan: i am coming from a windows box, i think exceed costs money
[07:55] <dwxreaper> astro: tightvnc
[07:55] <eomer> hmhowie: hold on, let me compile and build everything
[07:55] <astro76> dwxreaper, what server are you using in Ubuntu?
[07:55] <eomer> hmhowie: i'll let you know if it takes a while...
[07:55] <dwxreaper> astro:vnc
[07:55] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, "i think exceed costs money" what do you mean by that?
[07:55] <hmhowie> eomer: on my computer compilation fails really early because of a missing header.
[07:55] <Reaby> ok, has anybody else got problem with terminal after todays gutsy update ?
[07:56] <dwxreaper> jordan: to use x windows on a windows pc dont i need x windows emulation software?
[07:56] <astro76> dwxreaper, which one exactly? vino (gnome built-in), vnc4server, etc...?
[07:56] <Jordan_U> Reaby, #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy, and check bug reports
[07:56] <OrTigaS> hi! i downloaded file and it goes to / ..... where was / ?
[07:56] <astro76> dwxreaper, tightvnc?
[07:56] <eomer> hmhowie: yeah, in my computer too... i just get a bunch of errors...
[07:56] <OrTigaS> i'm trying to browse, but where?
[07:56] <dwxreaper> astro: i downloaded vnc through synacptic
[07:56] <dwxreaper> yeah tightvnc
[07:57] <dwxreaper> it's slow as hell, this is a 100 meg connection..
[07:57] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, A VNC server comes by default with Ubuntu
[07:57] <dwxreaper> jordan: yeah i tried that one, slow to
[07:57] <astro76> dwxreaper, you might try the bult in, or vnc4server, and use the vnc 4 client on windows, it works better than tightvnc now I"ve found
[07:57] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, Just go to System -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop
[07:57] <astro76> dwxreaper, I'm running that on a lan at work
[07:57] <Tmob> anyone know how to set the time on ubuntu?
[07:57] <dwxreaper> astro: is it responsive like remote-desktop?
[07:58] <Tmob> for some reason my laptop keeps getting its time set to EST
[07:58] <astro76> dwxreaper, it's better
[07:58] <Tmob> i want PST
[07:58] <astro76> dwxreaper, than tight, not remote desktop ;)
[07:58] <eomer> hmhowie: i get errors like type not defined
[07:58] <Tmob> if i do a ntpdate and update the clock it comes back to PDt
[07:58] <dwxreaper> gahh, i really want working remote control of the gui, i am trying to learn this os
[07:58] <progek> Jordan_U this is what I get from running vlc in terminal: No accelerated IMDCT transform found
[07:58] <progek> not sure what that means though
[07:58] <progek> maybe that has something to do with it?
[07:58] <astro76> dwxreaper, it works extremely well
[07:58] <Tmob> in /etc/timezone it has America/Los_Angeles
[07:59] <dwxreaper> astro: i can't tolerate a 500ms delay that's extremly irritating
[07:59] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, It should be very responsive with a 100 meg connection
[07:59] <eomer> hmhowie: can i pm you?
[07:59] <Probolinggo_Co_M> CeWek'S
[07:59] <faileas> dwxreaper: it should be fast. if you wanted an alternate i'd recommend nomachine
[08:00] <dwxreaper> faileas: why is this not fast?
[08:00] <astro76> dwxreaper, I wouldn't either, try our suggestion and see if it's better
[08:00] <dwxreaper> astro: what is your suggestion?
[08:00] <mindrape> ...
[08:00] <dwxreaper> i have tried the pre installed server, and downloaded vnc from the package already
[08:00] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, ssh -X will blow anything ( except NX ) out of the water though
[08:00] <astro76> dwxreaper, the gnome-built in, or vnc4server, and vnc4 client on windows
[08:00] <faileas> dwxreaper: no idea. i use it all the time on over a 11 mbps connection and its fine
[08:00] <astro76> dwxreaper, tightvnc hasn't been developed in years
[08:01] <dwxreaper> ok vnc4 is the client?
[08:01] <hmhowie> eomer: yeha, okay :)
[08:01] <Reaby> ach. found bug and subscribed to it.
[08:01] <dwxreaper> jordan: i want to use xwindows, don't i need a special client (exceed) from windows?
[08:01] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, And has advantages like being able to play 3D games with the rendering being done on the client PC
[08:01] <Kagar> anyone have a fix for the mod to where you can change your desktop to the matrix screensaver?
[08:02] <Kagar> I've tried a few remedies, but they don't seem to work.
[08:02] <dwxreaper> i understand the concept of -X tunneling the traffic, but how would my client understand the traffic??
[08:02] <astro76> dwxreaper, dwxreaper http://www.realvnc.com/cgi-bin/download.cgi
[08:02] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, I have no idea what exeed is but there are Free X servers available for windows, I think Cygwin has one
[08:02] <dwxreaper> don't i need a client, what client do you use for ssh -X on a windows machine
[08:02] <ferronica> i have an Email account  with my ISP, help me fill in evolution mail
[08:02] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, ssh -X through cygwin :)
[08:03] <DerangedDingo> Kagar: I haven't heard of the patch, it sounds funny... but, wouldn't a dpkg --reconfigure <affected files> or downgrading the patched packages work?
[08:03] <astro76> dwxreaper, sorry, http://www.realvnc.com/products/free/4.1/download.html
[08:03] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, I think there is a way to do it with an add on to putty also
[08:03] <astro76> you'd have to be running some X server

[08:06] <astro76> eomer, /nick newnick
[08:06] <eomer> astro76: thanks
[08:06] <DerangedDingo> Kagar: so it wasn't a patch, it was just some little trickery with nautilus.. so.. what got messed up?
[08:07] <Kagar> DerangedDingo when trying to use gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop true to fix it, it doesn't work, and now my icons and desktop functions don't work.
[08:08] <Jordan_U> dwxreaper, http://www.cygwin.com/xfree/
[08:08] <GreyWolfe> Can anyone suggest how I can restore my MBR, I was not given the Windows CDs when I purchased the computer, but I do have a repair partition which I can't boot because the MBR is messed up.
[08:08] <Kagar> and I tried dpkg-reconfigure /apps/nautilus but that didn't work.
[08:09] <astro76> dwxreaper, we did that scenario at work too, the cygwin xserver performed poorly and we ended up using a commercial windows xserver
[08:09] <john__> hey there greywolf. im in the same boat
[08:09] <DerangedDingo> Kagar: i'd try to restart X, make sure it didn't run at login, and then fool with gconf-editor if it gets bad. did you leave off "&& nautilus" at the end of the 'fixing' command?
[08:10] <GreyWolfe> Or, if no one can help me with that, can someone at least suggest a way to get to a command prompt before GRUB starts, because it is not working either.
[08:10] <john__> you can use anyones window disk but you do need one to repair your mbr
[08:10] <Kagar> DerangedDingo - I had tried those already.
[08:11] <GreyWolfe> john__: I know it is possible to repair without an actual Windows CD, there are Live CDs that can repair it. But as I am running Ubuntu off the Live CD right now, I can't burn the Boot repair CDs
[08:11] <DerangedDingo> Kagar: starting nautilus with no arguments does nothing?
[08:11] <Kagar> DerangedDingo - hmm, it works now.
[08:11] <astro76> john__, GreyWolfe, you can use Super Grub Disk to restore windows mbr... http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/
[08:11] <Evanlec_> what is the packages i need in order to compile source?
[08:11] <Jordan_U> GreyWolfe, What kind of command prompt do you hope to get before running the bootloader?
[08:11] <DerangedDingo> Kagar: yay
[08:11] <luna_ce>  p g
[08:11] <Jordan_U> !source | Evanlec_
[08:11] <Kagar> DerangedDingo - Thanks, I probably forgot to change false to true again in previous attempts from using recall in terminal
[08:11] <ubotu> Evanlec_: You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[08:11] <GreyWolfe> Jordan_U: I don't get one, I am asking if anyone can tell me how to get a Windows Command Prompt
[08:12] <mossby> what file in Ubuntu/Linux controls what programs are launched at boot?
[08:12] <Jordan_U> !build | Evanlec_
[08:12] <ubotu> Evanlec_: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:12] <john__> thanks astro
[08:12] <astro76> Evanlec_, build-essential
[08:12] <GreyWolfe> astro76: I have SGD, but I can't burn myself a Boot CD with it, as I am running Ubuntu off of the Live CD right now
[08:12] <Evanlec_> k
[08:12] <Evanlec_> apt-get install build-essential?
[08:12] <john__> does supergrub install into memory or does it become another headache like grub
[08:12] <GreyWolfe> john__: It is a Live Boot CD
[08:13] <samri> good morning/evening all
[08:13] <DerangedDingo> mossby: there's a few. for your profile, or 'session', there's ~/.gnome2/session
[08:13] <john__> my prayers are answered
[08:13] <Jordan_U> Evanlec_, Yes, what are you trying to compile? Chances are it's available as a package already
[08:13] <samri> I have a question about ntfs and read/write permissions. can someone help me?
[08:13] <Argumentum_in_Ab> ce_suka_mcr_sp_jg_suka?
[08:13] <Jordan_U> !ask | samri
[08:13] <ubotu> samri: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:14] <DerangedDingo> mossby: which can be controlled via GUI with System > Preferences > Sessions
[08:14] <Evanlec_> Jordan_U, airsnort ;p
[08:14] <john__> i have ubuntu running on a 300 gig external usb drive but grub installed onto main internal one aswell
[08:14] <samri> k. Right now I'm running a dual boot between winxp and ubuntu however my shared folder is NTFS....
[08:14] <Jordan_U> Evanlec_, Available in the default repositories
[08:14] <Evanlec_> no kidding
[08:14] <Evanlec_> lol
[08:14] <GreyWolfe> john__: GRUB installs to the Boot Sector, which would be the first partition on the first HD. I have the same setup as you do.
[08:15] <B-rabbit> sorry
[08:15] <samri> NTFS-3g actually... now I'm trying to share my Thunderbird profile and I don't think I have the correct permissions to do so
[08:15] <samri> I've been reading a bunch of docs online and now I get a "profile in use" error from thunderbird
[08:15] <john__> i didnt want to make things worse greywolf so i have just left it for now
[08:15] <jose> Hola
[08:16] <john__> i wanted the boot option from the bios preferably
[08:16] <samri> so it sees the winxp-created profile but refuses to load it
[08:16] <Jordan_U> samri, If you can write to the partition from your user than so can thunderbird
[08:16] <john__> i wish i had leant about linux years ago
[08:16] <ironfroggy> How can i invoke adduser without any prompts?
[08:16] <samri> thats what i thought
[08:17] <ironfroggy> i added --disabled-password but its still looking for a fullname and things
[08:17] <john__> i do rather detest microsoft
[08:17] <john__> but hey better late than never
[08:17] <GreyWolfe> Heh. I had everything running beautifully the other day. Then things just decided not to work. First I couldn't Boot into Windows, or my Recovery Partition, then Ubuntu decided not to want to boot, so I decided to reinstall Ubuntu. Now I get GRUB error 18 at Stage 1.5, and can only boot from the Live CD
[08:17] <Jordan_U> samri, There are no folder / file specific preferences since NTFS does not support UNIX preferences, so it's one set of permissions for anything on the partition
[08:18] <ferronica> can any one help me creating account with evolution ?
[08:18] <mindrape> GreyWolfe - sounds like an enchanting fairy tail involving a wicked witch and bunk installation media
[08:18] <mindrape> s/tail/tale
[08:18] <samri> so its open rw permission for all, correct?
[08:18] <GreyWolfe> mindrape: I checked the Ubuntu  Install CD and the built in thing to check if it is corrupt said it is just fine.
[08:18] <Bamnana> I have installed Emerald and Beryl via Synaptic. So Emerald is running but I can't make use of the themes. I also noticed that in Beryl Manager==>Select Window Manager Metacity is checked and I switch to Beryl and it turns back to Metacity automatically. Please can anyone explain me what's going on with Emerald, How can make use of themes?
[08:19] <john__> hope you backed up all your important stuff greywolf
[08:19] <astro76> samri, assuming you set it up correctly, test it by trying to create a file
[08:19] <GreyWolfe> Godo thing I really didn't have anything irreplacable.
[08:19] <blockcipher> I upgraded to feisty when it was in beta...hurd 5 was it called?  Now with gusty is it close the same?  Or is it pretty far off?  Cause  I might upgraded like I did and get into the beta, but not way to early.
[08:19] <Bamnana> It seems I can't get answers from the channels you directed me
[08:20] <rob> blockcipher, its still a bit off yet
[08:20] <samri> astro, yeah, I've pulled that off okay. I had thunderbird create a blank profile in the same folder as the profile I'd like to share with no problems
[08:20] <Jordan_U> GreyWolfe, You propably need to update your BIOS or make a separate /boot as the first partition
[08:20] <mon^rch> Bamnana: do you have opengl video drivers?
[08:20] <blockcipher> Thanks rob, I might wait a bit then.
[08:21] <Jordan_U> Greyhound-, Or use lilo.
[08:21] <antler> GreyWolfe: reinstalling grub is not an option for you
[08:21] <rob> blockcipher, in that is is in beta, but there are plenty of bugs and the release is a bit off yet
[08:21] <john> ssss
[08:21] <blockcipher> rob, have you gone to it yet?
[08:21] <rob> err it is in beta
[08:21] <GreyWolfe> antler: Can you offer a suggestion of what IS an option?
[08:21] <astronaught> How can I install the latest nvidia drivers - I currently use the restricted manager.
[08:21] <Bamnana> mon^rch: I think so, How can I be sure with this?
[08:21] <antler> GreyWolfe: reinstall grub
[08:22] <GreyWolfe> antler: That was less than helpful
[08:22] <rob> blockcipher, all my non-business pcs are running it (but not without problems)
[08:22] <zoidberg_> hey guys...i do not have an ethernet internet connection in my room....so i'm using my laptop for internet which picks up the wifi....can i connect the laptop to my pc via ethernet ports to use the wifi connection the laptop is catching for the pc?
[08:22] <Bamnana> mon^rch: I recently installed and Direct3d Drives, I have ATI RADEON 9550
[08:22] <GreyWolfe> Jordan_U: How do I go about installing those?
[08:23] <mon^rch> Bamnana: System-> Administration-> Restricted Drivers Manager
[08:23] <Jordan_U> astronaught, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[08:23] <blockcipher> rob, I see...i have a home desktop/ 700m...upgrading early to feisty fixed alot of issues I was having but I can't see it doing any good upgrading right now since its running so well but I thought I would find out before I just assumed that.
[08:23] <astronaught> Thanks J

[08:23] <blockcipher> *700m
[08:24] <ironfroggy> im trying to script some user setups and im getting this from adduser: Unknown option: system
[08:24] <ironfroggy> even tho i know the --system option works, i tried it
[08:24] <Bamnana> mon^rch: Ati accelerated graphics drivers is enabled and in use
[08:24] <GreyWolfe> Jordan_U: May I PM you?
[08:24] <rob> blockcipher, well officially I should tell you to wait in here at least, if you do choose to upgrade you get to keep both pieces
[08:25] <blockcipher> :D
[08:25] <ironfroggy> i can even take the line directly out of the script and run it and it works fine
[08:25] <Jordan_U> GreyWolfe, I prefer to stay in the channel, more eyes and whatnot :)
[08:25] <Madnez> anyone knows how to enable programs in ubuntu to recognize networked drives?
[08:25] <mon^rch> Bamnana: then beryl and emerald should be working. I use NVIDIA drivers so I cannot help you the way you need
[08:25] <Jordan_U> GreyWolfe, If it is too busy for you join #ubuntu-classroom
[08:26] <GreyWolfe> Ok Jordan_U, thanks
[08:26] <Madnez> and anyone knows how to mount ISO?
[08:26] <astro76> !iso | Madnez
[08:26] <ubotu> Madnez: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[08:26] <Bamnana> mon^rch: it seems kinda complicated, thanx anyway
[08:26] <Madnez> uhh
[08:26] <Jordan_U> Madnez, Networked drives being shared from a windows box?
[08:26] <Madnez> its on my networked drive
[08:26] <mindrape> Madnez - ever consider googling?
[08:26] <mindrape> I mean honestly.
[08:26] <Madnez> yeah but not sure what to search for. i'd have a long list to read up
[08:27] <mon^rch> Bamnana: np. sorry you cant get beryl working
[08:27] <mindrape> I just googled for mount iso linux... first page has your answer... clear as day.
[08:27] <Madnez> does it read networked drives?
[08:27] <blockcipher> rob, i might load up virtualbox and load the beta of gusty..think that would give me an 'idea'?
[08:27] <rob> blockcipher, yeah maybe
[08:27] <blockcipher> cool, its worth a shot :D
[08:27] <blockcipher> thx
[08:27] <samri> whoo hoo! I got it to work! NTFS shared thunderbird mail between winxp and ubuntu!
[08:27] <john__> astronaugt
[08:27] <Madnez> its not the mounter i'm worried about, its recognizing the networked drive
[08:27] <john__> why dont you google the word envy
[08:27] <mindrape> Madnez - you mean NFS or Samba Shares or what?
[08:28] <Madnez> NTFS and fat32
[08:28] <ironfroggy> : not foundh: 2:
[08:28] <astro76> !envy
[08:28] <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!
[08:28] <ironfroggy> what would that mean from my shell script?
[08:28] <john__> its a self installation of ati and nvidia cards
[08:28] <Madnez> it has no probs with fat and ntfs
[08:28] <Madnez> its just that the programs themselves cannot 'see' the network and keep checking my drives
[08:28] <mindrape> Madnez - where do you mount them to?
[08:29] <mindrape>  /mnt/somedrive?
[08:29] <Madnez> the files are on another computer which has been networked
[08:29] <Jordan_U> Madnez, The format of the partition does not matter if it is being shared over the network
[08:29] <Madnez> and yes the network is windows but file transfer and reading are ok
[08:29] <Madnez> yeah but the linux progs cant see the network
[08:29] <mindrape> ...Madnez - nobody cares about the filesystem type... how are you connecting to them?  Are they Windows shares?
[08:29] <mindrape> !samba | madnez
[08:29] <ubotu> madnez: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[08:29] <Madnez> yeah
[08:30] <Jordan_U> Madnez, Have you checked Places -> Network ?
[08:30] <Madnez> as i said, network is ok
[08:30] <Madnez> its the part on the progs
[08:30] <Madnez> keb can mount but doesnt see the network
[08:30] <Madnez> even linux VLC cant see any of my networked drives only media player
[08:31] <GIn> how do you input special letters such as "a" but iwth a little  "\" on it?
[08:31] <Madnez> so yeah, i'm kinda stuck...
[08:31] <mindrape> !samba > Madnez
[08:32] <Madnez> does samba allows progs to recognize the network?
[08:32] <mindrape> Yes...
[08:32] <zoidberg_> can anyone help me
[08:32] <zoidberg_> hey guys...i do not have an ethernet internet connection in my room....so i'm using my laptop for internet which picks up the wifi....can i connect the laptop to my pc via ethernet ports to use the wifi connection the laptop is catching for the pc?
[08:32] <Madnez> thanks... hope this will do the trick. i have already a ton of apps...
[08:33] <ironfroggy> does anyone have an idea why adduser would complain that --system isn't a valid option?
[08:33] <Madnez> yeah
[08:33] <mindrape> zoidberg_ - with a crossover cable... its probably easier to just get a wireless PCI card for the pc in your room though
[08:33] <Madnez> yup as mind said
[08:33] <Madnez> need cross
[08:33] <Madnez> problem is that com 1 will get all bandwith
[08:33] <Madnez> 2nd com in line will get less and next even less!
[08:34] <Madnez> mindrape, he wants to link his lap and pc with his laptop wifi
[08:34] <mindrape> Madnez - very possible... takes a lil bit of bridging magic but its easy enough.
[08:35] <drgeb> what software do I use to burn tow a CD-RW if I have an iso image ?? Thanks!
[08:35] <Madnez> as long as you dont mind having fast internet on laptop and slow on pc, it will work
[08:35] <mindrape> drgeb - I prefer k3b.
[08:35] <zolder> hi people! has anyone installed fire-gl on ati xpress 1100?
[08:35] <Madnez> hahaha mindrape, tried that connnection. sucked specially when the 1st com went on bandwidth spree
[08:35] <drgeb> Thanks mindrape I am checking it out
[08:36] <zoidberg_> mindrape, whats a crossover cable....and i'm kinda cheap dont have money for a pc wireless card....but cant i just connect the pc to the laptop with an ehternet cable and make it work like that somehow?
[08:36] <Madnez> ask your pc vendor
[08:36] <Madnez> cross is cheap
[08:36] <Madnez> about same as straight
[08:36] <mindrape> zoidberg - its just an ethernet cable that is wired differently...
[08:36] <qmyro> hi all i am trying to compile gnash 0.8.1 from source but i keep getting builderrors
[08:36] <zolder> ??help
[08:36] <zolder> ??help
[08:36] <zolder> hm
[08:37] <ferronica> Error while performing operation.MAIL FROM command failed: Unknown
[08:37] <astro76> zoidberg_, you need a crossover cable or a switch, you can google for info on modifying a straight cable even
[08:37] <Madnez> zoid, it will work but you need to setup your networking properly
[08:37] <mindrape> zoidberg - when you crimp an ethernet cable you can setup the wires by color to an A or B standard... http://yoda.uvi.edu/InfoTech/rj45.htm
[08:37] <paotzu> you can turn a straight cable into crossover with scissors, try it
[08:37] <z9999> Stiil looking for help in recovering after applying updates yesterday. Anyone know how?
[08:37] <Madnez> lolz... dont think he's gonna do all that
[08:37] <Madnez> he could try but... troublesome
[08:37] <mindrape> zoidberg - I'd recommend you go buy a crossover cable... if you dont have crimpers ($40ish) you will be screwed  :)
[08:38] <Madnez> yup, cross are cheap just get them
[08:38] <paotzu> just have to cut the wires like a flat top
[08:38] <Madnez> straight only for coms to modems/routers
[08:38] <mindrape> just get a wireless PCI card.. they are like $20 for a generic one
[08:38] <Evanlec_> yea, but get a linksys one ;p
[08:38] <qmyro> hi all i am trying to compile gnash 0.8.1 from source but i keep getting builderrors could someone please point me in the right direction
[08:38] <Madnez> lolz
[08:38] <Evanlec_> if u want easy ubuntu support
[08:39] <h1st0> qmyro: you may want to ask the gnash people.
[08:39] <qmyro> i see
[08:39] <Madnez> ok i'm off for a while, afk
[08:39] <Jordan_U> gmyro Have you run "sudo apt-get build-dep gnash" ?
[08:39] <Jordan_U> qmyro, ^^
[08:39] <qmyro> no not yet thanks for the info
[08:39] <Evanlec_> anyone know how to remove window decoration from a given window?
[08:39] <Evanlec_> i.e. the title bar etc.
[08:39] <Jordan_U> qmyro, np, for more info...
[08:40] <Jordan_U> !compile | qmyro
[08:40] <ubotu> qmyro: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:40] <mindrape> Evanlec_ - that would essentially make it modal... not sure that is a good idea.  Not sure how to do it either.
[08:40] <Evanlec_> modal?
[08:40] <qmyro> thanks guys bye
[08:40] <Evanlec_> its for a game, i want it to run in windowed mode, but dont want the title bar n stuff, so i can get essentially fullscreen
[08:40] <mindrape> yes... modal... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_window

[08:41] <zolder> mindrape hace you worked with ati xpress 1100?
[08:41] <giox> Bamnana What version of ubuntu are you using
[08:41] <mindrape> zolder - I have only used nVidia cards... sorry.  :(
[08:41] <mindrape> whats the problem?
[08:42] <john> anyone also encountered the dmi_string out of memory message when booting up in 64 bit ubuntu
[08:42] <zolder> can't find driver for it)
[08:42] <emonkey3> what software can i use to turn an AVI into a DVD
[08:42] <CyberSlug> Is there any utility for Linux that can meter internet activity (and record the amount downloaded over the course of any arbitrary interval) that can run in the userspace... similar to netmeter (which is available for WIndows)?
[08:42] <zolder> and no support for fglrx
[08:42] <mindrape> zolder - http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=ubuntu+ati+xpress+1100&btnG=Google+Search
[08:42] <Le^stat> is it a good idea to use Automatix 2?
[08:42] <Jordan_U> Evanlec_, You can just make the window size the size of your screen and move it so the decorations are outside the screen with alt + mouse drag
[08:42] <emonkey3> anyone
[08:42] <Jordan_U> !automatix | Le^stat
[08:42] <ubotu> Le^stat: 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)
[08:43] <Wann> is automatix2 site down?
[08:43] <zolder> oh my... that was a really smart answer.. thanks
[08:43] <Evanlec_> Jordan_U, right well thats kinda wat i do, except the gnome panel gets in my way
[08:43] <emonkey3> i really need to re-encode an avi into dvd
[08:43] <h1st0> emonkey3: I think avidemux does that doens't it?
[08:43] <Jordan_U> Wann, See the message from Ubotu above, don't use Automatix
[08:43] <xukun> If I get the message install Java Runtime Enviroment what can I do about that?
[08:43] <Jordan_U> Evanlec_, You can hide the gnome panel
[08:43] <drgeb> mindrape if I have installed k3b now I am at the main screen "Burn CD Image iso cue toc" is there a special setting to allow me to be able to burn a new iso later all over again on the CDRW ?
[08:44] <drgeb> or I can erase anything that was previously burned on the CD-RW ? Thanks!!!
[08:44] <zoidberg_> is there a way to build your own wireless pc card/
[08:44] <Evanlec_> Jordan_U, true...but there's no easier solution? fullscreen is a problem with this game because it spans across my two monitors...
[08:44] <zoidberg_> ?
[08:44] <Evanlec_> build your own? lol
[08:44] <astro76> drgeb, you can erase it no matter what you do
[08:44] <h1st0> emonkey3: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=183936

[08:45] <Le^stat> *ticks block* do not install automatix2
[08:46] <emonkey3> avidemux is it
[08:46] <emonkey3> i found the debs already
[08:46] <h1st0> emonkey3: well avidemux is in synaptic so no need to dl anything

[08:53] <shrimants> hi there
[08:53] <shrimants> is anyone here?
[08:53] <tropcky> sup
[08:53] <h1st0> z9999: worst case scenario all the old packages should still be in /var/cache/apt/archives
[08:53] <shrimants> hey, allright so heres whats up
[08:53] <h1st0> z9999: but we should be able to get your wirelss working no problem.
[08:54] <shrimants> i installed ubuntu, it came with generic kernel 2.something.15
[08:54] <tropcky> non just lookinf for some thing 2 lose the time
[08:54] <shrimants> then it did an update
[08:54] <GIn> how do you input charters like these ""?
[08:54] <astro76> !enter | shrimants
[08:54] <ubotu> shrimants: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:54] <shrimants> and changed the kernel to .16
[08:54] <shrimants> oh sorry
[08:54] <h1st0> shrimants: why would you ask if there is anyone here?  There are only 1100ppl in here.
[08:54] <tropcky> what about u ?
[08:54] <shrimants> its more like i was wondering who is awake or not
[08:54] <astro76> shrimants, makes it much easier to read ;)
[08:54] <tropcky> lol
[08:54] <h1st0> z9999: type in lspci to see whitch card you ahve.
[08:54] <emonkey3> i've been telling this fool at work, hook me up with catwoman robin
[08:55] <z9999> hlst0: It 's a Broadcom 4311, in a Compaq notebook, using Ubuntu 6.06
[08:55] <emonkey3> before he goes to work as my wingman he wants a movie so....
[08:55] <tropcky> u know its 9:00 am here and i cany sleep
[08:55] <tropcky> oooooooooooooof sucks
[08:55] <tropcky> cant *
[08:55] <h1st0> z9999: ahh 6.06 hrm...  try lsmod | grep bcm
[08:55] <shrimants> I installed ubuntu with generic kernel 2.something.15. it did the auto update, but instead of restarting, i just installed the nvidia drivers i got off of nvidia's website. so now i have a .15 kernel with working drivers and a .16 kernel with no working graphics drivers. how do i get it so that i have just a working .16 kernel?
[08:55] <h1st0> z9999: see if the broadcom module is loaded.  Or you maybe using ndiswrapper.
[08:56] <h1st0> z9999: do you remember how you got it working before did you have to use ndiswrapper?
[08:56] <z9999> hlst0: nothing returned
[08:56] <default> anyone here own a nokia 770
[08:56] <h1st0> shrimants: you have to reinstall the nvidia drivers in the .16 kernel
[08:56] <emonkey3> and get this, my wingman, he wants the movie, One Night In Paris
[08:56] <h1st0> shrimants: it has to build a module for every kernel
[08:56] <shrimants> and then how do i "get rid of" the .15 kernel
[08:56] <h1st0> z9999: lsmod | grep ndis
[08:57] <emonkey3> i don't know if he will be a good wingman
[08:57] <emonkey3> with a mind like that
[08:57] <giox> z9999 just type sudo ndiswrapper -l and that should tell you if is any drivers install
[08:57] <z9999> hlst0: It took months and help from over a dozen persons, and we used ndiswrapper
[08:57] <astro76> shrimants, you can uninstall it in synaptic
[08:57] <h1st0> z9999: well did they updates install a new kernel?
[08:58] <shrimants> so i would uname -r to see what kernels i have installed and then do sudo apt-get remove _______ for whatever kernel i dont want?
[08:58] <h1st0> z9999: if thats the case the ndiswrapper module needs to be rebuilt.
[08:58] <astro76> shrimants, no
[08:58] <giox> z9999 just type sudo ndiswrapper -l and that should tell you if is any drivers instal
[08:58] <h1st0> shrimants: more like dpkg -l | grep linux-image
[08:58] <av3ng3r> okay, I feel kinda silly... I just setup a new computer running a RAID5 with 3 drives, BIOS knows it's a raid and "Intel Matrix Manager" says the 3 drives are all configured as part of the raid, but when I use the installer to begin partitioning the raid it's showing me sda sdb and sdc (all at 0,0,0). Is there something I'm doing wrong?
[08:59] <z9999> hlst0: lsmod | grep ndis returns nothing
[08:59] <astro76> shrimants, or just search for linux in synaptic and remove everything with -15
[08:59] <h1st0> z9999: do what giox is saying sudo ndiswrapper -l
[08:59] <shrimants> ah ok
[08:59] <giox> yes
[08:59] <h1st0> z9999: and do you know if the updates installed a new kernel?
[08:59] <shrimants> yeah, i've been trying to switch to ubuntu for a while now, just my lack of unix/bash knowledge has been a huge hindrance
[08:59] <giox> if ndiswrapper still running it will tell you what is install
[08:59] <Evanlec_> av3ng3r, take a look at this, in particular the first two topics https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[09:00] <h1st0> giox: it probably isn't though i'm assuming his kernel upgraded and he doesn't have a ndiswrapper module for the kernel he's running now.
[09:00] <shrimants> allright then, im off to try it
[09:00] <shrimants> wish me luck
[09:00] <shrimants> /exit
[09:00] <av3ng3r> XD, thanks... for future reference how did you come across it? i looked through the faq and didn't see much mentioning partitions
[09:00] <shrimants> whoops
[09:00] <emonkey3> hi
[09:00] <giox> ok he can type uname -a to see what kernel is using
[09:00] <emonkey3> has anyone seen my dad?
[09:00] <emonkey3> watch brokeback mountian!
[09:01] <lnx_> how i can make grun to be graphical ( like suse ) ?
[09:01] <astro76> !offtopic | emonkey3
[09:01] <ubotu> emonkey3: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:01] <h1st0> z9999: dpkg -l | grep linux-image     how many different kernels does it list?
[09:01] <emonkey3> understood
[09:01] <Evanlec_> av3ng3r, i was trying to get ubuntu installed on a raid0 configuration using intel raid
[09:01] <Evanlec_> eventually gave up lol
[09:01] <h1st0> lnx_: what is grun just a run dialog like alt+f2
[09:02] <lnx_> h1st0 , ooooops i mean GRUB LOADE
[09:02] <lnx_> LOADER
[09:02] <av3ng3r> man, didn't anyone learn their lessons with winmodems? now they're doing it with raids >.>
[09:02] <z9999> hlst0 & giox: sudo ndiswrapper ...  returns
[09:02] <z9999> bcmwl5  : driver installed
[09:02] <z9999>                  device (14e4:4311) present
[09:02] <z9999> Don't know what all the updates pertained to as there were 101
[09:02] <GIn> how do you input charters like these ""?
[09:03] <h1st0> lnx_: http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=ubuntu+grub+splash
[09:03] <Evanlec_> av3ng3r, lol, yep...i know what ya mean, software raid that looks like hardware raid ;p
[09:03] <lnx_> h1st0 , thanks
[09:03] <Terrasque> Evanlec_: also known as fakeraid
[09:04] <z9999> hlst0: There are 4 images listed
[09:04] <h1st0> z9999: okay well the ndiswrapper module isn't loaded
[09:05] <Evanlec_> Terrasque, ya ;p
[09:06] <h1st0> z9999: if you reboot and hit ESC at the grub menu you can select the kernel you were using before and wireless will work.  To get it working in your current kernel you have to rebuild the module.
[09:06] <progek> I finally got my DVDs to work by downgrading libdvdcss2    now the update manager keeps bugging me to upgrade that package. I've already tested upgrading and it kills my dvd playback. How can I remove that update from the update manager?
[09:06] <giox> z9999 now type sudo ndiswrapper -m   //// then type sudo iwlist scan /// to see if your card is picking anything wireless.
[09:06] <z9999> hlst0: Is it possible to get the wireless to work easily? It's not my computer, and my friend returns in about a week. I use windows unhappily myself.
[09:07] <giox> sorry about the connection but im in iraq a lil bored and i thought i might help a lil over here
[09:08] <h1st0> z9999:You mean with out rebooting?
[09:08] <z9999> giox: Says Interface doesn't support scanning
[09:08] <h1st0> z9999: sudo iwlist scan
[09:08] <h1st0> giox: he doesn't have the ndiswrapper module though if lsmod | grep ndis returned nothing
[09:09] <z9999> hlst0: Reboots are no problem, just don't wish to have to do a clean install like on windows.
[09:09] <h1st0> z9999: no you won't have to do that.  If you want to get it working with out fixing it .  Just reboot and select an older kernel fromt he grub boot menu.
[09:09] <h1st0> z9999: Like I mentioned above.
[09:09] <z9999> giox: Hope you're safe there in Iraq.
[09:09] <giox> z9999 you wont have too is just ndiswrapper needs to be reinstall
[09:10] <nurettin> hello
[09:10] <ubuntu-jason> hello?
[09:10] <lnxnubie> hello
[09:10] <nurettin> i am using 7.10 guty
[09:11] <nurettin> pardon gutsy
[09:11] <z9999> giox: what steps to reinstall ndiswrapper?
[09:11] <ubuntu-jason> sry im using ubuntu-ultimate (built on edgy)
[09:11] <Jordan_U> nurettin, #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy
[09:11] <nurettin> and this morning i installed gnome new versino
[09:11] <nurettin> okay excusme
[09:11] <Jordan_U> ubuntu-jason, Stay away from Ubuntu "ultimate" in the future
[09:11] <giox> z9999 What is the kernel you are running at this moment if you dont know type uname -a in terminal
[09:12] <ubuntu-jason> jordan, y is that?
[09:12] <av3ng3r> ok so it's not looking good... i've got 3 drives, a fake raid5, and (from the looks of the link) no raid5 support in dmraid in feisty... i'd preferably like something like that, even if it's just softraid, anyone know the best way to do that?
[09:12] <h1st0> z9999: try sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[09:12] <z9999> giox: Linux compaq 2.6.15-29-386
[09:12] <Black_Cat> hello. i've successfully installed ies4linux, it works fine, but i'm having fonts-related problems in "Internet Options" dialog and similar situations. the language i'm using is russian, fonts required are certainly installed. maybe i just need to set proper codepages? please tell me where can this be done?
[09:12] <ptk> hey guys, I've got a mail question that isn't really specific to Ubuntu (though I run ubuntu on the box in question) should I ask here or elsewhere?
[09:13] <giox> h1st0 if he has the new kernel i recoment to install the new ver of ndiswrapper thats what i have to do on mine
[09:13] <h1st0> giox: yeah you can get him going then I haven't used ndiswrapper in ages.
[09:14] <giox> ok
[09:14] <h1st0> giox: can't he just recreate the module?
[09:14] <h1st0> giox: sudo ndiswrapper -m
[09:14] <z9999> giox: We had to install a newer ndiswrapper to get it to work the first time, but don't know which version it is.
[09:15] <h1st0> z9999: ndiswrapper -v
[09:15] <h1st0> will show you the version
[09:15] <giox> h1st0 the problem is the old version of ndiswrapper for some reason wont work with that kernel it might work on the old one
[09:16] <AzMoo[w] > Hey, I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a server with two hardware mirrored scsi drives, but when I get to the hard-drive selection it shows two drives. That's not right, is it?
[09:16] <giox> h1st0 thats why when the computer got updated the ndiswrapper stop and no matter if you type sudo modprobe ndiswrapper it wont work
[09:16] <h1st0> giox: yeah but the module isn't there untill you add it with sudo ndiswrapper -m
[09:16] <h1st0> giox: then you can modprobe ndiswrapper.
[09:17] <h1st0> giox: idk like I say I haven't used it in a while i'll go away
[09:17] <z9999> utils ver 1.0    driver ver 1.8    vermagic: 2.6.15-29-386 prempt 486 gcc-4.0
[09:17] <av3ng3r> AzMoo[w] : I just asked a similar question. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto was the FAQ page I was linked to. You should be good with RAID-1, but unfortunately I'm going for RAID-5 which doesn't seem to be supported :(
[09:17] <z9999> giox: If you're leaving, thanks and take care where you are.
[09:18] <giox> z9999 try this sudo ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf
[09:18] <h1st0> z9999: no I was saying i'm leaving out of it.  He will be able to help you more than me.
[09:18] <s3nz0r> hy ppl
[09:18] <h1st0> giox: he already has the driver present he did a ndiswrapper -l before.  Just fyi before I go.
[09:18] <s3nz0r> can help me whi aa\ problem :D
[09:18] <AzMoo[w] > av3ng3r: i see. Thanks.
[09:19] <av3ng3r> AzMoo[w] : not a problem, good luck :)
[09:19] <s3nz0r> i have instalet\d ubunt 7.04 and i have bad connection to internet can some one tell me whi :(((
[09:19] <h1st0> !ask | s3nz0r
[09:19] <ubotu> s3nz0r: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:19] <giox> z9999 then type sudo ndiswrapper -l
[09:19] <giox> You should see a message that says driver present, hardware detected
[09:19] <z9999> giox: got mixed up who's helping, says bcmwl5 is already installed
[09:20] <av3ng3r> anyways, thanks guys. going to head to bed for now :)
[09:20] <giox> z9999 ok now type sudo ndiswrapper -m
[09:20] <h1st0> s3nz0r: IS this a fresh install or did you install other applications?
[09:21] <s3nz0r> izS FRESH
[09:21] <s3nz0r> is fresh
[09:21] <winbond> whats the command to check if an app has all the dependencies installed?
[09:21] <h1st0> s3nz0r: is english your native language?
[09:21] <z9999> giox: ndiswrapper -m says module configuration already contains alias directive
[09:21] <s3nz0r> no
[09:21] <s3nz0r> i'm from romania :D
[09:21] <h1st0> winbond: it has to have the dependencies.
[09:21] <h1st0> winbond: unless you didn't install from the repos.
[09:21] <s3nz0r> me english sucks :D
[09:22] <s3nz0r> can some one tell me whi i have bad connection to internet
[09:22] <winbond> h1st0, i know,  but still , i wanna know how to check
[09:23] <h1st0> winbond: apt-cache showpkg <packagename> will show you its dependencies
[09:23] <s3nz0r> who can tell me whi i have bad connection on internet
[09:23] <s3nz0r> i copu files whit 30-40 kb
[09:23] <s3nz0r> no more then theat
[09:23] <h1st0> s3nz0r: What language do they speak in romanian?
[09:23] <s3nz0r> romanian language :))
[09:23] <giox> z9999 ok do this  1. Uninstall the current driver. Use ''ndiswrapper -l'' to get the name of the loaded driver,
[09:23] <giox>     then ''ndiswrapper -e NAME'' to remove the currently installed driver.
[09:23] <giox>  2. Reinstall the driver with the command ''ndiswrapper -i DRIVER.inf'' using your windows driver.
[09:23] <giox>  3. You should now be able to ''modprobe ndiswrapper'' successfully.
[09:24] <winbond> h1st0, ok , but i want to know if an app i installed has all the dependencies,
[09:24] <s3nz0r> h1st0 answer to pm :D
[09:24] <winbond> h1st0, (not from repos)
[09:25] <h1st0> winbond: okay an app you are going to build?  Then you would type in sudo apt-get build-dep <packagename>
[09:25] <h1st0> winbond: that will install the build dependencies so you can build it from source.
[09:26] <ptk> I'm trying to get my mail using fetchmail -> sort it through procmail (+SpamAssassin) and forward the sorted mail to different accounts (via smtp) is this possible?
[09:26] <Kagar> zomg, there's like 349304309830938 files for ALSA
[09:26] <giox> z9999 what version of ubuntu you are using?
[09:26] <h1st0> winbond: I'm not quite sure there is a way to do what you want.
[09:26] <h1st0> giox: 6.06

[09:37] <z9999> Is it possible to return the system to what it was before applying the 101 updates and have it work as before?
[09:37] <z9999> That might allow me to pick and choose updates to see what it is that breaks the wireless, and allow me to access the internet with the notebook.
[09:37] <ajay> how change the boot configurations in kubuntu?

[09:41] <wlnet> I am using cupsys. it seems it does not support the printing of html file. anyway to put it right?
[09:42] <Jordan_U> wlnet, Why / how do you want to print to an html file?
[09:42] <f3trio3d2x> hi , has anybody ever used RKWARD in this channel ?
[09:43] <giox> z9999: you still there?
[09:43] <wlnet> Jordan_U: no, I want to print out an html file.
[09:44] <z9999> giox: The only problem is if I need to download some new files, I have no easy way to move them from the Windows system to the Ubuntu system other than burning a CD.
[09:44] <Jordan_U> wlnet, I understand, html is not a digital paper format, so "printing" to and html file seems odd to me
[09:45] <giox> z9999: are you doing dual boot
[09:45] <nanonyme> scary
[09:46] <tropcky> hi all
[09:46] <tropcky> hellooooooooooooooooooooo

[09:49] <z9999> giox: We are in the forest of Northern Thailand a few clicks from Laos accessing the internet over a satellite, researching Orchids.
[09:49] <h1st0> tropcky: Both accomplish the same thing but I prefer virtual box because its open source.
[09:49] <ubotu> tropcky: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[09:49] <giox> z9999 all you need is two files that will be ndiswrapper 1.47 that you can get from http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/
[09:50] <tropcky> thank u so much
[09:50] <h1st0> tropcky: just use virtual box its nice and easy to use.
[09:50] <giox> and the latest drivers for the wireless card
[09:50] <ohsonorrisy> Can anyone help? I think I really messed up GDM
[09:50] <tropcky> i will thanks
[09:50] <root__> hello
[09:50] <tropcky> but hey
[09:50] <ohsonorrisy> Grr.
[09:50] <ompaul> ohsonorrisy, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ( and less of the gurr we are friendly calm down thanks )
[09:50] <tropcky> i got only 512 ram   is that will make it work ?
[09:50] <h1st0> ohsonorrisy: whats wrong with it?
[09:50] <tropcky> or it needs more
[09:50] <tropcky> ?
[09:50] <ohsonorrisy> ompaul: It isn't xserver.
[09:51] <ompaul> ohsonorrisy, sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm ( and less of the gurr we are friendly calm down thanks )
[09:51] <giox> z9999: do you remember where are those packges that you use to installed the first time
[09:51] <giox> z9999: if you do you can use them again
[09:51] <ElMoo> Is there any ZENworks-alike solution available specifically for a Ubuntu desktop environment?
[09:52] <xaxxon> how do I boot ubuntu so the graphics work on an nforce 680i system with sli?  I did the install with vga=77(something).. I could at least see the screen, but it was all messed up
[09:52] <tropcky> hlst0: look man
[09:52] <xaxxon> when I do a normal boot, I see the initial screen where it loads the kernel.. then blank
[09:52] <z9999> giox: They should still be on the system, just have to locate them. Not too familiar with the tools and commands used in Linux.
[09:52] <tropcky> i have only 512 ram is that will make it work ?
[09:52] <xaxxon> I can wait a bit and hit ctrl-alt-del and it reboots, so I know it's booting.. I just don't see anything
[09:53] <h1st0> z9999: locate <filename>
[09:53] <redheat> hi everyone
[09:53] <redheat> sorry for budging in like this
[09:53] <giox> z9999: you can type sudo nautilus    that will bring a window with all you folders as root and you will be able to search for them thats more easy than using cli
[09:53] <redheat> just got a quick question
[09:54] <ohsonorrisy> ompaul: dpkg-reconfigure gdm didn't work
[09:54] <macd> h1st0, z9999, you may have run 'sudo updatedb' first to update locates db.
[09:54] <h1st0> xaxxon: What type of video card do you ahve?
[09:54] <h1st0> macd: I know this.
[09:54] <redheat> I have Gnome Art Manager program installed on my system
[09:54] <macd> You didn't tell them ;)
[09:54] <redheat> and I was wondering if someone else is facing the same problem as mine
[09:54] <xaxxon> 2x8800gts
[09:54] <h1st0> macd: because he's using a system thats been installed for ages i'm sure cron has updated his db
[09:54] <macd> redheat, does it lock up often, and crash?
[09:55] <redheat> no
[09:55] <giox> z9999: Then go to the directory that you extracted the ndiswrapper files to and run:
[09:55] <giox> sudo make distclean
[09:55] <giox> sudo make
[09:55] <giox> sudo make install
[09:55] <xaxxon> I didn't try a ctrl-alt-f1 yet...
[09:55] <saxi1> anyone know if Ubuntu 7.10 will ship with the snow-plugin in compiz-fusion?
[09:55] <redheat> just when it comes to the logons, it doesn't allow for installation just download
[09:55] <h1st0> xaxxon: Is this a fresh install?
[09:55] <ohsonorrisy> redheat: What problem are you having with Gnome Art Manager?
[09:55] <ohsonorrisy> Oh, it was doing the same thing to me.
[09:55] <h1st0> xaxxon: when you get to grub menu hit esc and select recovery mode.
[09:55] <redheat>  when it comes to logon screens it only shows the download button, while the install button goes greyed out
[09:55] <xaxxon> yes.. ok
[09:55] <macd> redheat, I dont think that feature has been implemented.
[09:56] <xaxxon> seeing lots of text flying by...
[09:56] <xaxxon> root prompt
[09:56] <ohsonorrisy> Also, I was using gtk-theme-switch and, when I installed a theme, it got all wonky and now when I load GDM the NVIDIA screen pops up but the desktop is just black.
[09:56] <redheat> you mean it only allows for downloads when it comes to logons, but it works perfectly with backgrounds
[09:56] <h1st0> xaxxon: Okay now we need to figure out what drivers you need to fix X
[09:56] <macd> redheat, that is exactly what I am saying
[09:56] <redheat> ok roger that..
[09:56] <xaxxon> I typed startx.. I get vertically tiled screen
[09:56] <redheat> thank you so much for your helpd
[09:56] <xaxxon> 2.05 screens or so :)
[09:56] <redheat> help*
[09:57] <redheat> take care all
[09:57] <redheat> bye
[09:57] <xaxxon> h1st0; what now?  I can do stuff in X if that's easier.. it's just fugly
[09:57] <ohsonorrisy> I tried rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 and it didn't work
[09:57] <h1st0> xaxxon: yeah you need to select the proper driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf You should be able to boot X with vesa drivers.  try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select the vesa driver.
[09:58] <h1st0> xaxxon: X is working now?
[09:58] <xaxxon> I justed turned on the restricted nvida driver
[09:58] <xaxxon> h1st0; not properly
[09:58] <xaxxon> it's vertically tiled
[09:58] <xaxxon> I see the screen twice.. like mirrored.. but on one monitor
[09:58] <h1st0> xaxxon: yeah it doens't hav ea background set if you use start x.
[09:58] <wlnet> when i try to print a html file, nothing comes out. the print job status show "processing".
[09:58] <h1st0> xaxxon: oh thats interesting.
[09:58] <ohsonorrisy> Can anyone help me?
[09:58] <xaxxon> yeah.. I think it's cuz I did the install in "notebook lcd mode".. vga=775 or something
[09:58] <h1st0> xaxxon: well enable the nvidia restricted driver and reboot.  Let it boot normally you should get back in X
[09:58] <xaxxon> anyhoo.. maybe the nvidia driver will work :)
[09:59] <ompaul> saxi1, ask in #ubuntu+1
[09:59] <xaxxon> yeah.. I see nothing while it's booting, though
[09:59] <h1st0> xaxxon: that vga=  line in grub just tells it what resolution to run the terminals in.
[09:59] <xaxxon> not like I did in recovery mode
[09:59] <fgg> is beryl still being developed or has the project shifted to compiz-fusion ?
[09:59] <h1st0> xaxxon: well if you boot to recovery mode and nano /boot/grub/menu.1st you can delete the vga= line
[09:59] <xaxxon> oh... blah still nothing
[10:00] <h1st0> fgg: I believe they shifted their efforts
[10:00] <xaxxon> trying to force text console doesn't work either
[10:00] <ddr4> ohk
[10:00] <xaxxon> reboot to recovery again?
[10:00] <h1st0> fgg: http://www.beryl-project.org/
[10:00] <h1st0> xaxxon: yes
[10:00] <h1st0> xaxxon: when you get a root prompt type in nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:00] <giox> z9999: have you reboot the computer after all the steps we did at the begining
[10:01] <h1st0> xaxxon: then you can delete the vga=775 or whatever from the end of your kernel line
[10:01] <LoneShadow> Hi, I am trying out uswsusp, hibernate works fine, but while restoring, I see "PM: Resume from disk failed." and Xorg takes up 99% cpu, I can only ssh into box
[10:02] <LoneShadow> anyone know how to fix hibernate problems ?
[10:02] <LoneShadow> !suspend
[10:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about suspend - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:02] <xaxxon> it's actulaly not set to anything.. there's no vga= except in a comment
[10:02] <ElMoo> What systems management solution is out there to manage let say +1000 ubuntu desktops...?
[10:03] <xaxxon> is there any way to set it? I think I probably want 1280x800 if that's an option.. (1/4 native resolution)
[10:03] <h1st0> xaxxon: ahh maybe its a problem with splash then.  Get rid of that.
[10:03] <h1st0> xaxxon: you can take out splash and quiet from your main kernel line.
[10:03] <xaxxon> ok
[10:04] <ompaul> ElMoo, lets say if you are doing that with 1k desktops you can afford the consultant to write on the paper the words thin clients so it is all the same from /etc/skel
[10:04] <xaxxon> rebooting
[10:04] <h1st0> xaxxon: wait what comment line is it in #defoptions   ?
[10:04] <ompaul> ahh
[10:04] <h1st0> xaxxon: cuz thats default options  for the first kernel.
[10:04] <xaxxon> too late.. I'll tell you when I get back
[10:04] <giox> z9999: are you still there?
[10:04] <xaxxon> or can I do it from grub prompt?
[10:04] <vancomycin> is there a ubuntu & firefox equivalent to flashgot (extension) and flashget (application)? i've been using them for ages on xp, but haven't found anything that can handle large single one click hosted files - i've heard of down them all... but anything that can highlight a whole selction and queue up downloads?
[10:04] <h1st0> xaxxon: brb going for a smoke.
[10:05] <xaxxon> k
[10:05] <xaxxon> thanks for your help
[10:06] <xaxxon> could no open the device file /dev/nvidia0 filed to initialize the nvidia graphics device pci:1:0:0
[10:06] <xaxxon> yick
[10:07] <redheat> hi again guys
[10:07] <redheat> sorry for bothering you again
[10:07] <z9999> giox: Still here, but after the reboot the system is taking a very long time to boot.
[10:07] <redheat> I just have a problem regarding browsing files this time
[10:08] <redheat> when I open a program like art theme manager, and try to locate files that I downloaded
[10:08] <giox> z9999: let me know what the system does
[10:09] <redheat> it brings up a 'save as' window, and it shows me where the recent files have been downloaded down to..it shows me a folder names tmp, for temporary
[10:09] <redheat> located under another folder called .gnome and this one is located under a folder named .gnome 2 and so forth till i come to the root folder
[10:09] <xaxxon> I ran sudo nvidia-xconfig and it still doesn't work.. same error
[10:10] <redheat> now when I try to open the root folder from my desktop, I don't see these folders at all
[10:10] <redheat> how can I access those folders?
[10:10] <redheat> anyone?
[10:10] <xaxxon> I think my card is at 3:0:0, but it's tryign to find it at 1:0:0.. whatever that means
[10:11] <codename> I need some help trying to get lxdoom running
[10:11] <jan_> morning
[10:11] <codename> I need some help trying to get lxdoom running
[10:11] <redheat> can anyone help me with this problem
[10:11] <h1st0> xaxxon: you can change were its at if you dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:11] <jan_> anyone uses ldap auth for his clients ?
[10:11] <codename> I'm not sure how to make it see the WAD file.
[10:11] <redheat> I'm looking for folders that I cannot locate them under the roof folder
[10:11] <h1st0> !sudo | redheat
[10:11] <ubotu> redheat: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:12] <redheat> no I didn't mean that..
[10:12] <wam> Hi, what's the debian "base-config" for ubuntu? I need to setup timezone, locale and so on in console.
[10:12] <codename> I need some help trying to get lxdoom running
[10:12] <redheat> simply put, there are folder called .gnome and .gnome 2 which are located under the root folder
[10:12] <h1st0> redheat: your user isn't able to see the folders in there.
[10:12] <h1st0> redheat: what are you trying to do?
[10:12] <redheat> i'm using an administrator account
[10:12] <redheat> the root account
[10:12] <redheat> just locate these folders under root
[10:12] <h1st0> redheat: hit ctrl+h in nautilus
[10:12] <Doomguy0505> Are there any gui versions of man?
[10:13] <z9999> giox: It came up, and I found the files we used to make the wireless work last time in my friends home directory. We used ndiswrapper 1.42, and have a bcm4311 folder which contains the only drivers we found that would work. We tried many different drivers from many sites, noe of which worked and I can't remember who we got these drivers from.
[10:13] <redheat> ok hold on for second
[10:13] <h1st0> redheat: in the file browser folders with . in front are hidden.
[10:13] <redheat> yay
[10:13] <redheat> yay
[10:13] <redheat> I found them
[10:13] <h1st0> redheat: also you shouldn't really be logged in as root but thats another issue.
[10:13] <redheat> so the folders with .something stand for hidden one
[10:13] <h1st0> redheat: yeap
[10:13] <redheat> I know the security issue
[10:13] <redheat> roger that
[10:14] <h1st0> redheat: its more than a security issue
[10:14] <redheat> but I had to use the root all the time since I have to download many drivers and setup the system
[10:14] <h1st0> redheat: you just enter the root password and do that.
[10:14] <xjkx> once you load your livecd, it does not go to the disk too much right? as most of the info is in memory already
[10:14] <shwouchk> yo
[10:14] <giox> z9999: ok go to that directory on terminal and type this sudo make distclean
[10:14] <giox> sudo make
[10:14] <giox> sudo make install
[10:14] <redheat> ok
[10:14] <Tomcat_> xjkx: It doesn't use the disk at all, except for swap.
[10:14] <codename> I need some help trying to get lxdoom running
[10:15] <shwouchk> my ncurses got fucked (diplays many ?s and other weird signs) - how do I fix it?
[10:15] <redheat> isn't like that famous administrator account vs less priviliged account since anyone can use your computer
[10:15] <h1st0> redheat: no.
[10:15] <redheat> as if it was his under the admin account
[10:15] <redheat> ok
[10:15] <h1st0> redheat: its nothing like windows.
[10:15] <xjkx> tomaw: i mean the disk CD
[10:15] <Doomguy0505> shwouchk: tried reinstalling libncurses?
[10:15] <Zoidfarb> Ok, this is kind of a dumb question, but I'm using fluxbox, and for some reason I can't press and hold the backspace key to delete stuff. In other words, I have to press backspace repeatedly for each character. Is there a way to change this behavior?
[10:15] <redheat> no, I mean the idea of using a root account vs. an administrative account but of less power
[10:16] <h1st0> redheat: use your normal user acount and if you want to install drivers or software it will prompt you for root password.  You enter it and away it goes.
[10:16] <giox> z9999: in the drivers folder should be a file call xxxxxxx.inf file
[10:16] <shwouchk> Doomguy0505: yes
[10:16] <DWZ> With the Ubuntu Live CD, is it possible to get gparted not to mount the partitions when you run it? Or even prevent it from re-mounting them after you unmount them? (although, it could be Ubuntu doing this, rather then gparted)
[10:16] <h1st0> redheat: you need to read the link from ubotu about sudo
[10:16] <xjkx> Tomcat_: i mean the disk CD
[10:16] <redheat> they noticed that recently in windows vista and offered that Universal user protection stuff
[10:16] <redheat> when you wanna install drivers..
[10:16] <redheat> ok roger that
[10:16] <redheat> thank you so much
[10:17] <redheat> so much for your help
[10:17] <redheat> truely appreciate it
[10:17] <redheat> take care and good morning and a nice day to you all
[10:17] <z9999> giox: Just to my friends home directory or the ndiswrapper of bcm4311 directory in my friends directory. Sorry I'm not more knowledgeable about linux.
[10:18] <Doomguy0505> codename: do you have the iwads?
[10:18] <giox> z9999: is ok im not that great either
[10:18] <me7531> i am trying to get ubuntu to automount external drives when i attach them.  i created entries in fstab, but they do not automount.
[10:19] <codename> yep
[10:19] <me7531> i am using kde, not gnome
[10:19] <codename> i have a wad file
[10:19] <codename> :)
[10:19] <codename> SinCity wad
[10:19] <giox> lets start from the begining now that you found the folder
[10:19] <giox> z9999
[10:19] <xaxxon> h1st0; thanks for your help.. but I never got anywhere :(
[10:19] <codename> Doomguy0505: yeah I have a wad file i wanna use
[10:19] <Tomcat_> xjkx: Well all the CD won't fit into your RAM (except maybe if you have 8 GB ;P), so it will still access the CD from time to time.
[10:20] <shwouchk> my ncurses got fucked (diplays many ?s and other weird signs) - how do I fix it?
[10:20] <giox> z9999: first go to  bcm4311 directory  tell me what is in it
[10:20] <xaxxon> shwouchk; type reset
[10:20] <xaxxon> maybe
[10:20] <Doomguy0505> codename: did you put the iwads in /usr/share/lxdoom/wad?
[10:20] <dgjones> me7531, have you created the directories in your (say) /media directory that matches the mount points used in fstab
[10:20] <tsukasa_> ypcat
[10:20] <xjkx> Tomcat_: yea but not that often :D i have only 512 :S
[10:20] <codename> nop
[10:20] <codename> e
[10:20] <codename> :(
[10:20] <shwouchk> xaxxon: no go
[10:21] <tsukasa_> how do you see a list of groups a machine has?
[10:21] <z9999> giox: there's 27  files in it
[10:21] <xaxxon> h1st0; run something.. graphicsy in it
[10:21] <me7531> dgjones: yes.  oddly, if i remove the entries in fstab, they do get automounted, but not where i want
[10:21] <Doomguy0505> codename: you need to put the iwads in that folder
[10:21] <codename> thanks man!
[10:21] <giox> z9999: ok it should be a folder call DRIVER
[10:21] <xaxxon> h1st0; sorry, that was to shwouchk
[10:21] <me7531> dgjones: i am using UUID instead of device names because i've got so many drives to mount
[10:21] <z9999> giox: make says no targets and no makefile
[10:22] <tsukasa_> anyone? how do i look at what groups are set up
[10:22] <codename> do i have to make
[10:22] <xaxxon> sabayon linux plays musc during startup?!?
[10:22] <codename> a lxdoom folder
[10:22] <Tomcat_> xjkx: I got 512 as well... it accessed the CD pretty often when starting new apps. Not when just leaving it sitting there of course.
[10:22] <me7531> i'm kind of surprised that ubuntu can't handle this
[10:22] <codename> cause it's not in usr share
[10:22] <xaxxon> I guess htat's nice since it takes so long to boot from live cd.. but cool
[10:22] <giox> z9999: i need to know that you found that folder in the  bcm4311 directory
[10:22] <Doomguy0505> codename: i'm not sure, i just googled the problem and they said copy iwads into /usr/share/lxdoom/wad
[10:22] <dgjones> me7531, i'm not sure what the problem is going to be then, although maybe its a conflict if its configured to automount with another from fstab
[10:23] <me7531> dgjones: i don't know.  they're just standard fstab entries.  there is no field in there to tell anything to automount, i thought
[10:23] <Doomguy0505> codename: is their a ~/.lxdoom directory?
[10:23] <z9999> giox: Theres no other folders, and going back a directory still none named DRIVER
[10:24] <codename> yep
[10:24] <me7531> dgjones: but i would think HAL or dbus or whatever would detect them and consult fstab and mount them
[10:24] <giox> z9999: there is any file in it that ends with .inf
[10:24] <dgjones> me7531, not sure what to suggest, are they removable drives, or fixed drives on another machine shared by nfs/samba
[10:24] <codename> there is a directory for that
[10:24] <codename> its not a iwad file though it's a .wad
[10:24] <z9999> giox: yes, the bcmwl5.inf exists there.
[10:25] <me7531> dgjones: usb drives, which is why i need UUID entries in fstab to keep the mount points the same regardless of device names
[10:25] <giox> z9999: ok are you in the terminal?
[10:25] <z9999> giox: yes, and in the bcmwl5 directory
[10:26] <z9999> giox: correction, bcm4311 directory
[10:26] <giox> z9999: go to the ndiswrapper folder
[10:27] <dgjones> me7531, as you say, i wonder whether hal/dbus mounts them seperatly & that conflicts with the fstab entry - maybe it sees it duplicated, I've not mounted usb drives using fstab because i've only ever been using usb keys or a temporary drive for a short time
[10:27] <Knight_On_White> hello all, i would like to know what is the best way to copy data from HDD to HDD under Ubuntu 7.04 ? and make a data compares later ? (does ubuntu have software like norton commander on xp systems?)
[10:28] <z9999> giox: OK, and there is a driver folder there.
[10:28] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: no need for norton command
[10:28] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: you can do a disk dump
[10:28] <giox> ok now type suo make distclean
[10:28] <me7531> Knight_On_White: man cp
[10:29] <giox> z9999: ok now type sudo make distclean
[10:29] <codename> Doomguy0505: you three?
[10:29] <z9999> giox: done
[10:29] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: There are plenty of ways to do it what are you trying to accomplish exactly?
[10:30] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: a bit for bit copy?
[10:30] <giox> z9999: ok type sudo make
[10:30] <giox> z9999: then type sudo make install
[10:30] <shwouchk> my ncurses got fucked (diplays many ?s and other weird signs) - how do I fix it?

[10:32] <z9999> giox: sudo make   KBUILD=<path> argument to make
[10:32] <Knight_On_White> if i would like to make an archive of the entire HDD and save the archive on other hdd ?
[10:32] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: like a back up?  Do you want it compressed?
[10:32] <Knight_On_White> h1st0 : yes
[10:33] <Knight_On_White> h1st0: yes
[10:33] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: something like partimage may be what you are looking for.
[10:33] <[nrx] > would you not be better just backing up /home?
[10:33] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: it creates a copy of the entire partition making it easy to restore.
[10:33] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/partimage
[10:34] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: He has a link to other backup options.  But in linux if you just backup your /home or put it on a seperate partition you are pretty safe.
[10:34] <giox> z9999: ok type this sudo apt-get update
[10:34] <giox> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[10:34] <giox> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[10:34] <h1st0> giox: he has no net
[10:35] <giox> i forgot
[10:35] <giox> h1st0: why he cantdo the make
[10:36] <aantn> !affinity
[10:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about affinity - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:36] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: there is also tar you can just make a tgz of your entire disk heres a hwoto http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=81311
[10:36] <Knight_On_White> h1st0: i have an HDD with alot of databases (300gb), and i would like to copy all the databases to other HDD - so i was thinking of make an archive of all the databases directly to the new HDD
[10:36] <aantn> is affinity still being developed?
[10:37] <h1st0> giox: he's probably not int he right folder.
[10:37] <me7531> Knight_On_White: is there some problem with the cp command=
[10:37] <me7531> ?
[10:37] <z9999> giox: Don't know, but I have the original ndiswrapper-1.42.tar.gz also if that is needed
[10:37] <h1st0> aantn: no
[10:37] <Knight_On_White> me7531: i dont sure how to use the cp command right
[10:38] <[nrx] > cp = copy
[10:38] <aantn> h1st0: why?
[10:38] <me7531> Knight_On_White: well if you cannot figure out how to read the man page and use it, you have more serious problems than data archival
[10:38] <[nrx] > me7531: lol
[10:38] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: then look at that howto for tar that I posted.  That will probably be your best bet.  You an create a compressed file of them.
[10:38] <giox> z9999: ok go to /home
[10:39] <h1st0> Knight_On_White: you can just adapt it to your needs as you are not backing up /  but wherever your databases are.
[10:39] <giox> z9999: and create a folder named wlan
[10:39] <bighil> hi, does someone know, how I get gnome to raise a window only if I click in the title bar of the window?

[10:39] <Doomguy0505> codename: i think you should get zdoom instead
[10:41] <giox> z9999: and extract that tar file in it
[10:41] <z9999> giox: OK, have a /home/wlan directory
[10:41] <[nrx] > ;o
[10:42] <z9999> giox: don't know what the command is to extract the tar - untar? and need any options?
[10:43] <[nrx] > ;o
[10:43] <[nrx] > oops, orry
[10:43] <ompaul> z9999, tar xvf FILENAME.tar
[10:43] <giox> z9999: type ls and check that you can see the file
[10:43] <jimmacdonald> z9999: unless you want it to go somewhere else then it's tar xvf filename directory
[10:44] <giox> z9999: that you want to extract
[10:44] <WuPeak> hi there
[10:45] <z9999> giox: I have to get rid of the .gz somehow first?
[10:45] <WuPeak> i've got a prob with my ati x700. if i run sudo fglrxinfo, the ATI Drivers are taken, if i run just fglrxinfo the system takes the MESA Drivers. How to solve this?
[10:45] <giox> z9999: no
[10:46] <jimmacdonald> z9999, giox I believe you do... you can by gunzip *.gz
[10:46] <giox> z9999: just live the file how it is
[10:47] <giox> z9999: if you type ls and you can see ndiswrapper-1.42.tar.gz you are ok
[10:48] <WuPeak> no idea?
[10:49] <z9999> giox: I have the file, but do I need to copy it to /home/wlan?
[10:49] <shwouchk> my ncurses got screwed (diplays many ?s and other weird signs) - how do I fix it?
[10:49] <h1st0> shwouchk: how did it get that way?
[10:49] <giox> z9999: ok type the following     sudo tar zxvf ndiswrapper-1.42.tar.gz /home/wlan
[10:50] <shwouchk> h1st0: I wish I knew

[10:50] <panosru> Please someone help me make my second partition executable!! :(
[10:50] <h1st0> panosru: you mean bootable?
[10:51] <panosru> no mean that i have second partition and i can't execute apps from it
[10:51] <panosru> /dev/sdb1 on /media/disk type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[10:51] <panosru> see noexec! :(
[10:51] <bezibaerchen> panosru:  well, then tide out the noexec from fstab :-)
[10:51] <h1st0> panosru: how did you mount it?
[10:52] <enzo> hi grils I'm back 8-)
[10:52] <h1st0> panosru: but yeah editing your /etc/fstab will fix it.
[10:52] <panosru> the problem is that i open fstab but there i can't find my disk.  I formated it with GNOME partition manager and mounted from there too

[11:01] <hjmills> morning all
[11:01] <panosru> what is this -> UUID=2699c485-76a3-4654-8f6c-787f9d0009e2 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 0 ?
[11:01] <vicktor> d
[11:01] <hjmills> what config file holds the LC_ALL, LOCALE and LANGUAGE variables?
[11:02] <hjmills> panosru, a line from your fstab?
[11:02] <z9999> [nrx] :  Looks like the updates weren't as easy to do afterall.
[11:02] <Jowi> !info etoile gutsy
[11:02] <ubotu> Package etoile does not exist in gutsy
[11:02] <panosru> yes but what is this line? i try to find my ext3 second drive and can't find it there even if its mounted :/
[11:02] <hjmills> panosru, for and ext3 volume that you are mounting as root
[11:02] <panosru> i need to add a new line for my second hard drive?
[11:03] <hjmills> panosru, the uuid bit (funny numbers and stuff at the start) is a unique identifier for the partition. You can move the partition and it will still work.
[11:04] <panosru> oh i c so what i need to change from this line so i could make it exec ?
[11:04] <hjmills> panosru, yes, you can use /dev/sdb1 instead of the UUID or you can use vol_id -u /dev/sdb1 (as root) to find the uuid of the partition
[11:04] <hjmills> panosru, the only difference you may want for the root line is to make the last 0 a 1 (so it gets checked on boot in the first pass)
[11:05] <panosru> oh ok so i change it to 1 and reboot or log out is enough ?
[11:05] <hjmills> panosru, reboot - what are you trying to fix though?
[11:06] <Knight_On_White> hello , i am now on the terminal on "/media" (and i have 2 HDD named : disk-1 disk-2 ) i would like to copy the entire data from disk-1 to disk-2 what is the command for that ?
[11:06] <panosru> i need to execute apps from my second hard drive
[11:07] <shriphani> Knight_On_White: dd ?
[11:07] <vice> hi all i need to buy a computer (beige box) and want to make sure that i choose proper graphic card for ubuntu. are there any resources on this?
[11:07] <hjmills> Knight_On_White, cp -R disk-1/* disk-2/
[11:08] <sacredheart> Knight_On_White: cp -rp /media/disk-1 /media/disk-2
[11:08] <hjmills> Knight_On_White, i think
[11:08] <hjmills> vice, Nvidia is a very safe bet - they produce Linux drivers for all their cards afaik and there are open source drivers as well
[11:09] <Knight_On_White> sacredheart: thanks :) another thing if i want to do the same but with tar command ? (to copy all the data from disk-1 to an archive on disk-2)
[11:09] <hjmills> Knight_On_White, man tar
[11:10] <sacredheart> Knight_On_White: tar -cfv /media/disk-2/foo.tar /media/disk-1

[11:17] <hjmills> wow - ubotu got smarter since I was here last
[11:17] <z9999> Is there a channel dedicated to wireless problems? This appear to be the most difficult area to get help for ubuntu?

[11:17] <[nrx] > hjmills: lol
[11:17] <BennieMan> im reading that in order to love an error i get i need to [sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list] 
[11:17] <BennieMan> and then remove some text
[11:17] <BennieMan> but i dont see any there there
[11:17] <sacredheart> Knight_On_White: tar doesn't compress it unless you tell it to (my example didn't)
[11:18] <BennieMan> love-solve
[11:18] <BennieMan> love=solve
[11:18] <hjmills> BennieMan, can you pastebin the contents of the /etc/apt/sources.list file please?
[11:18] <z9999> hjmills:  Just allowed the updates to be applied and it killed the wireless which took over 6 months to get to work.
[11:18] <BennieMan> hjmills, yes sure, moment please
[11:18] <hjmills> z9999, ouch - what wireless card?
[11:18] <sacredheart> Knight_On_White: The tar-file is just an file containing the file archive, sorta
[11:19] <hjmills> z9999, and what version of ubuntu?
[11:19] <z9999> hjmills: Broadcom 4311 in a Compaq notebook, ubuntu 6.06

[11:23] <BennieMan> basicly, the advice im trying to follow is to: [remove the lines that reference "Ubuntu 7.04 _Feisty Fawn _ - Release i386 (20070415)" and save the sources.list. ] 
[11:24] <[nrx] > BennieMan: open up the /etc/apt/sources.list file and remove the lines
[11:24] <shwouchk> oh, yes, btw
[11:24] <BennieMan> but when i type {sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list}, i get that stuff u see in the screenshot
[11:24] <shwouchk> it's really annoying that by defaut it is insalled searching for packages on the CD
[11:25] <[nrx] > it's empty :o
[11:25] <[nrx] > BennieMan: can you do a "locate sources.list"
[11:26] <BennieMan> [nrx]  will do it now, sec
[11:26] <dgjones> BennieMan, do you need a "/" before the etc/apt/sources.list?
[11:27] <[nrx] > dgjones: aha. jut noticed the title in nano of the scrnshot.
[11:27] <dgjones> BennieMan, looking at the image, its not showing one, just wonder if its not picking up the right folder because of it
[11:27] <shwouchk> isn't it /etc/apt-get?
[11:27] <[nrx] > BennieMan: yes you must have forgotten the leading /
[11:27] <shwouchk> my ncurses got screwed (diplays many ?s and other weird signs) - how do I fix it?
[11:27] <[nrx] > shwouchk: the path for the repo list is /etc/apt/sources.list

[11:46] <shwouchk> my ncurses got screwed (diplays many ?s and other weird signs) - how do I fix it?
[11:47] <z9999> hlst0: I just booted and allowed the updates to apply per advice from here. I don't know how to boot into the old kernel or if it is possible as we have ran commands that may have removed the files which the old kernel used by now. I'm not a ubuntu user myself so I'm working in the dark. The computer belongs to a friend who installed Linux per my suggestion thinking it would be less problems...
[11:47] <z9999> ...than a WinXP system for work purposes, not a gamer.

[11:52] <shwouchk> h1st0: it is possible that it was cause by a locale switch, but I'm pretty sure I haven't touched locales on that box... anyway, it is 'en_us.UTF8' which is what I want

[12:14] <jo__> anybody familiar with open computer vision also called openCV
[12:14] <Jest3r> Very strange, do any other options change when you save them?
[12:15] <sylverfox> yes
[12:15] <sylverfox> I used transparent background
[12:16] <ompaul> jo__, no idea, there is an accessibility  in the menu, so it could be the same thing I have no idea
[12:16] <luk3> is anyone familiar with this type of problem? it is quite urgent
[12:16] <sylverfox> and aftyer changing it works
[12:16] <ompaul> jo__, click on system and accessibility and poke around in there
[12:16] <ompaul> luk3, can you log into it?
[12:17] <z9999> h1st0: We had the wireless working under 2.6.15-28, which no longer boots at all.

[12:17] <h1st0> z9999: Well another option is to install the firmware from the driver you have in your ~
[12:17] <h1st0> z9999: but you would still need fw-cutter

[12:25] <Jordan_U> z9999, That should work with the native drivers, all you need to do is install the package "bcm43xx-fwcutter" and unblacklist bcm43xx if it is blacklisted
[12:25] <d90> iBook machintosh
[12:26] <xxxentoog> anyone know?
[12:26] <Crozar> what?
[12:26] <Nighthawk420> hey Jordan_U you got any ideas?

[12:27] <divan> Crozar: no one helped me before
[12:27] <Nighthawk420> fglrx
[12:28] <xxxentoog> i'm sure it's just a command to tell grub to start?
[12:28] <divan> just wondering if anyone knows how to set which network card gets assigned to which eth address
[12:28] <z9999> Jordan_U: We spent over 6 months before getting it to work the first time and currently have no means of installing anything from the internet.
[12:28] <Jordan_U> Crozar, Any reason why you havn't upgraded to Feisty?
[12:28] <Nighthawk420> Jordan_U, i am using fglrx
[12:28] <dgjones> !grub | xxxentoog, Have a look at ubotu's factoid, that refers to creating grub boot floppies, maybe it'll help
[12:28] <ubotu> xxxentoog, Have a look at ubotu's factoid, that refers to creating grub boot floppies, maybe it'll help: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[12:28] <divan> because mine keeps changeing...
[12:28] <Jordan_U> Nighthawk420, can you pastebin the output of "sudo modprobe fglrx" if any ?
[12:28] <xxxentoog> hmmm
[12:28] <xxxentoog> well linux is on a cd
[12:28] <rausb0> divan: look at /etc/iftab and change it accordingly
[12:28] <xxxentoog> but i cant get the laptop to boot from it
[12:29] <xxxentoog> so i thought if i knew the command i could get grub to boot from win98 boot floppy with the live cd
[12:29] <Jordan_U> xxxentoog, Does the laptop boot from other CDs ?
[12:29] <xxxentoog> no
[12:29] <xxxentoog> but the cd works
[12:29] <xxxentoog> i can browse the contents from win 98 floppy
[12:29] <Jordan_U> !install | xxxentoog
[12:29] <ubotu> xxxentoog: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[12:29] <Nighthawk420> Jordan_U there was no terminal output
[12:29] <xxxentoog> the cd i am trying in mepis
[12:30] <dgjones> xxxentoog, sounds like you need to modify your boot order in your computers bios so that boot from cd is before the hdd
[12:30] <divan> rausb0: awesome will try that!! Thanks!!
[12:30] <xxxentoog> since it's small
[12:30] <xxxentoog> yeah i tried the boot order
[12:30] <xxxentoog> still didn't work
[12:30] <xxxentoog> i dont have a hdd
[12:30] <xxxentoog> i have to boot from floppy
[12:30] <Jordan_U> Nighthawk420, Can you pastebin the output of "glxinfo" ?
[12:30] <xxxentoog> but you said there is a grub floppy that will let you boot from cd
[12:30] <xxxentoog> ?
[12:31] <xxxentoog> i'm just trying to boot a live cd
[12:31] <Jordan_U> xxxentoog, On the page I linked to there are instructions for a floppy install
[12:31] <xxxentoog> i cant install ubuntu
[12:31] <Crozar> its not this ,my laptop is old and feisty will not give me full screen 1024 res with 3d accelerator enabled , its a bug conflict with new technology towards my laptop hardware
[12:31] <xxxentoog> it's 150mhz 15 meg ram
[12:32] <Jordan_U> xxxentoog, That is far too little for the standard liveCD anyway
[12:32] <dgjones> xxxentoog, ubuntu livecd generally needs 256Mb of ram to install comfortably
[12:32] <xxxentoog> ok

[12:32] <Jordan_U> xxxentoog, DSL ( Damn Small Linux )
[12:32] <ubotu> feisty: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[12:32] <xxxentoog> there is a guy running slackware i guess i read online
[12:33] <xxxentoog> yeah i have dsl but i cant get it to boot from cd
[12:33] <feisty> thx:)
[12:33] <xxxentoog> thats why i need a floppy that will boot a cd
[12:33] <xxxentoog> hence why i used win 98 floppy with cdrom support
[12:33] <[nrx] > guys, I don't have this menu "System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers Manager" - can anyone suggest another way of getting to this administration menu or the restricted drivers menu?
[12:34] <dgjones> xxxentoog, sounds like your computer doesn't support booting from cd, which i suppose is a possibility looking at the specification you mentioned and possibly its age
[12:34] <xxxentoog> yes
[12:34] <Crozar> nrx u want to enable the 3d acceleartor?
[12:34] <[nrx] > Crozar: aye
[12:34] <Crozar> nvidia?
[12:34] <[nrx] > ati
[12:34] <Jordan_U> xxxentoog, http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/network-install.html
[12:34] <xxxentoog> but there has to be a floppy prog that will boot a cd linux
[12:34] <xxxentoog> it doesn't have network
[12:34] <xxxentoog> i have to install from floppy
[12:34] <Crozar> well :/ check go in sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:35] <xxxentoog> but it has to be live since i have no hdd
[12:35] <Crozar> with nvidia cards down in driver device and options i will see near driver
[12:35] <Crozar> nv = no accelerator and nvidia = accelerator
[12:35] <xxxentoog> there really isn't a live grub floppy image?
[12:35] <dgjones> !grub | xxxentoog, go to the second link in the factoid - that explains about grub boot floppies
[12:35] <ubotu> xxxentoog, go to the second link in the factoid - that explains about grub boot floppies: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager.

[12:35] <[nrx] > Crozar: that's not what i'm after, i just want to get into the Retricted Drivers Manager
[12:35] <Crozar> but with ati u can google that
[12:36] <Crozar> why u like to play with eye candy , most people here will help u by typign things in terminal because its faster then telling go theyr go here
[12:36] <NET||abuse> Hey guys.. anyone know of any package i can get to run a remote download service? basically, i want to order downloads on a server in my office, and allow my flat mates to order downloads also with a login mechanism, and i'll take things home on the lappy at the end of each day.
[12:36] <[nrx] > Crozar: i know this and i've been a linux user or quite a while but i just want to see the menu lol
[12:36] <Crozar> but after u do all this u can save ur xorg and all the other important files and logs and put them in floppy for a fresh install in diffrent systems thats what im doing.

[12:47] <bullgard4> I read the headline of /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/drivers/mtd/mtdblock.c "Direct MTD block device access" What does 'MTD' stand for?
[12:48] <Pupeno_> do you know how do I append more domain names to "search" in /etc/resolv.conf from /etc/dhcp3/dhcp3-client.conf?
[12:48] <thux> why launchpad say " Bugs in Gutsy gnome-terminal" "There are currently no open bugs." ?
[12:48] <sarthorkhan> I am new to linux, Will it work in the case if ips are dynamic? http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html
[12:49] <NET||abuse> jrib, do you fancy starting a gui project for such an app? i think i found a java based download queue daemon
[12:49] <macd> sarthorkhan, yes it will, just fine.
[12:49] <vicktor> someone know if ubuntu partitions (ext3) have file size limit like on fat32 ?
[12:49] <jrib> NET||abuse: not really interested in a gui, so that would wait
[12:50] <macd> vicktor, ext3 can grow to 16tb
[12:50] <NET||abuse> jrib, basically it seems to run on a simple text queue of urls with cookie options and things,, and so we could just build a gui in php or something?
[12:50] <sarthorkhan> macd, one of my etheris ppp0 and the others isp is on eth1, while my users are on eth0, So Can i use copy paste , or need to make some changes?
[12:50] <berent> getting errors while apt-get update  as gzip error . what should i do??
[12:50] <[nrx] > can someone have a look at this ( http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37772/ ) and help me out please? this was after following the instructions for setting up opengl
[12:50] <NET||abuse> jrib, oh, but are you still interested in a queue'ing system?
[12:51] <jrib> NET||abuse: yes
[12:51] <macd> sarthorkhan, sounds like your using that box as a gateway/router/nat device correct?
[12:51] <z9999> I have build-essential 11.1 installed, but /lib/modules/2.6.15-29-386 lacks a build directory, while /lib/modules/2.6.16-28-386 has one. Can I copy it to the latest kernel directory and then be able to run a 'sudo make' command for ndiswrapper?
[12:51] <magnolia> hello
[12:51] <sarthorkhan> macd, Yes.
[12:51] <NET||abuse> jrib, hmm, it's a little inactive though, http://sourceforge.net/projects/dmachine/
[12:52] <NET||abuse> jrib, something like this only having activity within the last year would be nicer.. :(
[12:52] <macd> sarthorkhan, then you need to have a look @ iptables, for masq and forwarding. look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=111972 for answers
[12:52] <berent> getting errors while apt-get update  as gzip error . what should i do??
[12:52] <berent> getting errors while apt-get update  as gzip error . what should i do??
[12:53] <NET||abuse> jrib, what do you reakon?
[12:53] <sarthorkhan> macd, using /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p tcp --dport 1:65535   -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE
[12:53] <NET||abuse> berent, paste the error, and don't ask twice, people are techy in here
[12:53] <sarthorkhan> macd, using /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p udp --dport 1:65535   -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE
[12:53] <Jordan_U> z9999, sudo apt-get build-dep ndiswrapper, though I think you should try the native drivers
[12:53] <jrib> NET||abuse: might be worth a try, at least you can see what you like about it and what you would change
[12:53] <macd> sarthorkhan, that should work fine, does 'iptables -l' confirm those are active?
[12:54] <[nrx] > can someone have a look at this ( http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37772/ ) and help me out please? this was after following the instructions for setting up opengl
[12:54] <sarthorkhan> macd, yes. active,
[12:54] <sarthorkhan> macd, i am a bit confused, that how my linux box will understand my ether ppp0 ?
[12:54] <NET||abuse> jrib, would you try it? or use something more recent?
[12:54] <macd> sarthorkhan, should work in that case, do you have DHCPD running on eth0 ? those clients need IP's
[12:54] <jrib> NET||abuse: I can't find anything more recent
[12:55] <berent> !paste
[12:55] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:55] <NET||abuse> jrib, me either, supprising really isn't it?
[12:55] <sarthorkhan> macd, Yes my dhcpd is running, and assigning ips to my clients.
[12:55] <macd> sarthorkhan, but clients get no internet connectivity? and ppp0 is active? can the box running iptables ping internet?
[12:55] <evol2> Is there a way to completely remove a program from the teminal? "apt-get remove [program] " doesnt work
[12:56] <z9999> Jordan_U: Will the 'sudo apt-get build-dep ndiswrapper' work without an internet connection? And we had no success trying to get the native drivers to work previously, following instructions online.
[12:56] <sarthorkhan> macd, Very Very Sorry my brother, i am going to start that setup, not started yet, i will start that process now.
[12:56] <sarthorkhan> :)
[12:56] <Jordan_U> z9999, What instructions?
[12:56] <macd> sarthorkhan, god luck.
[12:57] <macd> good*
[12:57] <sarthorkhan> macd, thank you.. i will be back to you for  help if i got stuck.
[12:57] <sarthorkhan> bye.
[12:57] <[nrx] > nm, sorted it
[12:57] <Jordan_U> z9999, Did you un blacklist bcm43xx and did you install bcm43xx-fwcutter ?
[12:57] <berent> can anyone check this out http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37773/

[12:58] <Doomguy0505> Does anyone know how to play midis in amarok?
[12:58] <NET||abuse> berent, heh, what'd i do to be blessed with your paste :P
[12:59] <z9999> Jordan_U: Instructions from this IRC channel. And how do we install bcm43xx-fwcutter? We're working from an IBM pc running winxp right now as the Ubuntu system can no longer access the internet after applying the updates and rebooting.
[12:59] <berent> !gpgkey
[12:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gpgkey - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:59] <NET||abuse> berent, usually just a problem with decoding the package list tar.gz file,
[12:59] <berent> NET||abuse : how to rectify it?
[12:59] <NET||abuse> berent, maybe you don't have the right key, or the url is out of date for those sources?
[12:59] <berent> NET||abuse : whats the command to install gpgkey
[01:00] <Jordan_U> z9999, Ahh, do you remember where you got the firmware from?
[01:00] <Jordan_U> z9999, I assume you have a way to transfer files to the PC with a USB drive or something?
[01:00] <z9999> Jordan_U: a search of the system finds no bcm43xx-fwcutter on the system.
[01:01] <NET||abuse> berent, first, pastebin your sources.lit file?
[01:01] <NET||abuse> berent, sources.list rather,, lit.. doh
[01:01] <Doomguy0505> Are there any gstreamers for midi files?
[01:01] <z9999> Jordan_U: right now all we can do is burn to a CD and transfer. Not the best situation. Loaned out the USB drive and hasn't been returned yet.
[01:02] <Doomguy0505> At least a midi to mod converter?
[01:02] <Jordan_U> z9999, OK, first lets check that bcm43xx isn't blacklisted
[01:03] <z9999> Jordan_U: it is but can be unblacklisted easily using ed.
[01:03] <Jordan_U> z9999, Unblacklist it
[01:04] <Doomguy0505> Surely something as simple as midi is possible?
[01:04] <[nrx] > can someone tell me how i can get to the "Restricted Drivers" menu?
[01:04] <Jordan_U> z9999, And try running "sudo modprobe bcm43xx" it will probably complain about missing firmware
[01:04] <z9999> Jordan_U: Main thing is we don't wish to lose our research data.
[01:04] <evol2> How do I see the MAC-adress of an interface?

[01:05] <vicktor> how can i checked if this ports 6444/6445 are open in my system ? (ubunto 7.04)
[01:05] <Jordan_U> Avulture, Is this a Linux Program?
[01:05] <berent> NET||abuse : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37774/
[01:05] <vicktor> checked = check
[01:05] <berent> NET||abuse : this is my sources.list
[01:05] <Avulture> Jordan_U, nope for sure, and i know this is a LInux system. but i know many users could use both OSes
[01:06] <NET||abuse> berent, hmm, ok, hehe, you updated all the way from badger,,
[01:06] <Avulture> besides Linux users are better than windows users
[01:06] <berent> NET||abuse : yeah.
[01:06] <NET||abuse> berent, that's stick to it ness for yah :P
[01:06] <z9999> Jordan_U: sudo modprobe bcm43xx just returns a prompt
[01:06] <berent> NET||abuse : what??
[01:07] <Jordan_U> z9999, what about "iwconfig" ?
[01:07] <NET||abuse> berent, never mind.. I was being gratulatory
[01:07] <Ricanelite> Hello everyone! I will be installing Ubuntu Linux on my gateway notebook running a AMD Turion 64x2 with 2gig's of RAM will it run fine?
[01:07] <vicktor> how i open ports on ubuntu 7.04 ? can someone plz help me
[01:07] <Doomguy0505> If it doesn't exist, don't be scared to tell me!
[01:08] <tdn> I have problems starting Firefox over SSH with X-forwarding. I have three hosts: A, B and C. Host A is local to me. I SSH with ssh -YC to B. From B I SSH with ssh-YC to C.

[01:08] <SlimeyPete> vicktor: firestarter or iptables, but all ports are open by default
[01:08] <SlimeyPete> so if you haven't deliberately closed them then they're all open
[01:08] <Jordan_U> Doomguy0505, You just want to play midi files?
[01:08] <Doomguy0505> Yes
[01:08] <digispag|away> Does anyone know a tool for Ubuntu that can cleaverly rotate images?  I have a a bunch of about 7000 images, some are normal, some are rotated and I need to rotate those ones to normal
[01:08] <berent> NET||abuse :i have a feisty cd but wanted to test out feisty. i have my own working fine. i am installing another and just copied the sources.list . but there seems to be some problem
[01:09] <Jordan_U> Doomguy0505, Install timidity
[01:09] <digispag|away> i don't want to have to open the 3000 or so roatated images one by one and save them
[01:09] <Ricanelite> Now my biggest worry is I want to install Unbuntu and Windows Vista and have a dual boot
[01:09] <Doomguy0505> already did
[01:09] <NET||abuse> berent, like we both mentioned, if you just copied the sources.list, you probably don't have the gpg key added.
[01:09] <ffighter> hello... which version of VMWare is free for Linux ?
[01:09] <Ricanelite> is that fine to do and is it hard? Will I lose any data?
[01:09] <Jordan_U> digispag|away, Look into imagemagic
[01:09] <SlimeyPete> digispag|away: at a guess, fspot might do it?
[01:09] <Jordan_U> ffighter, player and server
[01:09] <berent> NET||abuse : how to add it. that was my 1st doubt.
[01:10] <ddalton> ok where can I get the live cd for ubuntu from?
[01:10] <un_dave> i created a software raid 5 array, then rebooted my pc. how do i reassemble/restart that array ?
[01:10] <z9999> Jordan_U: Unblacklisted bcm43xx, iwconfig shows lo, eth0, and sit0, each followed by 'no wireless extensions'.
[01:10] <ddalton> Where can I get the livecd for ubuntu from?
[01:10] <ffighter> Jordan_U, Is the player enough to set up a Windows VM locally ?
[01:10] <SlimeyPete> un_dave: mdadm should have done it automatically, but if you google for "mdadm" you should be able to find instructions
[01:10] <SlimeyPete> !raid
[01:10] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[01:11] <AskHL_> digispag|away, how would the program know whether the images are rotated? Are they sorted already? Not that I know how to do this with any particular program, I would write a script to do it...
[01:11] <digispag|away> Ok, I'll try FSpot SlimeyPete, thanks
[01:11] <Jordan_U> ffighter, I think if you create a vmx file with a web site it is, but vmware server can actually create new virtual machines
[01:11] <ddalton> does anyone know I can't read all these messages (blind)
[01:11] <Ricanelite> can anyone give me some information where I could do a dual boot for Windows Vista and Ubuntu Linux and a good chance I wont loose any data?? Is that possible?
[01:11] <digispag|away> AskHL_, i suppose i;m looking for something that can do it in a batch
[01:11] <digispag|away> at the moment i have to double click, wait for it to open, then save it
[01:12] <Jordan_U> AskHL, Some cameras store the orientation information in meta-data
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> Ricanelite: you'd be insane to try it w/o a backup... its a slim chance, but there's been several here who'ev hosed XP/Vista while installing.
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> myself included
[01:12] <ffighter> Jordan_U, So, I would have to get the two, use the server to create the VM and the player to run it ?
[01:13] <Ricanelite> well I have most of my Pictures, Music, and important files already backed up
[01:13] <berent> Jordan_U : can u tell me how i get a gpg key
[01:13] <ffighter> Jordan_U, Workstation is an easier, bundled way to do that I suppose
[01:13] <Jordan_U> Ricanelite, Just use Vista to resize the NTFS partition and it should be fine ( learn how to restore your MBR also )
[01:13] <Ricanelite> MBR?
[01:13] <NET||abuse> berent, well, visit the urls for the deb's you have that are causing errors, look for a gpg file there, then run the command wget http://url.to.deb/keyfile.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[01:13] <Ricanelite> what is that?
[01:13] <AskHL_> digispag|away, ok. It sounds a bit imagemagick-ish as someone already mentioned
[01:14] <Jordan_U> ffighter, Server can create and run them
[01:14] <Jordan_U> ffighter, player can just run them
[01:14] <Ricanelite> Okay I just pop-in the Windows Vista CD and it will let me resize the harddrive or what?
[01:14] <ffighter> Jordan_U, And workstation ?
[01:14] <Jordan_U> ffighter, I would assume that it can do both also, but it is not free IIRC
[01:14] <Doomguy0505> Jordan_U: Does it convert midis to wavs?
[01:14] <Jordan_U> Doomguy0505, Yes
[01:14] <berent> NET||abuse : u mean us.archive.ubuntu.com
[01:15] <incorrect> what is the best bit of software to use to monitoring your systems?
[01:15] <NET||abuse> berent, yeh, probably, that's the one with the error yets?
[01:15] <marhi> olaaa
[01:15] <Doomguy0505> Jordan_U: What is the command? i tried: timidity -o outfile infile and timidity infile -o outfile and neither worked
[01:15] <berent> NET||abuse : ok. then
[01:16] <berent> oh ok running command fine
[01:16] <berent> NET||abuse : is it keyfile.gpg or Release.gpg
[01:16] <NET||abuse> emm, where's keyfile.gpg? i don't see it there
[01:17] <Ricanelite> How do I partition my harddrive under Windows Vista?
[01:17] <Ricanelite> Do I need to enter my Windows Vista Install CD?
[01:18] <SlimeyPete> Ricanelite: ask in ##windows, this is an Ubuntu channel :)
[01:18] <Ricanelite> I understand that but I'm trying to put Ubuntu on my Notebook but I want to dual boot Ubuntu and Windows Vista
[01:19] <Error443> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NlInstallatieHandleiding/DualBoot
[01:19] <[nrx] > how do I find out what version of Xorg is running?
[01:19] <SlimeyPete> Ricanelite: right... but people in ##windows are more likely to be able to help you with the Vista partitioner
[01:19] <Ricanelite> Okay I have a 100gig hard drive
[01:20] <SlimeyPete> I should think one could count on one handte number of people here who run Vista ;)
[01:20] <Ricanelite> Now what will be the best size for Ubuntu Linux?
[01:20] <Ricanelite> So I have enough room to install any Linux Apps and be good with enough space for both Operating Systems
[01:21] <Ricanelite> Cause right now I have 40gig left in my hard drive
[01:21] <SlimeyPete> Ricanelite: at least five gigs, but ten or more would be best (splitting the drive 30-80 might be your best bet)
[01:21] <z9999> It sure would be nice tho have ubuntu subchannels which would reduce the traffic and make problems being discussed more relevant to each others problems.
[01:21] <Ricanelite> Okay
[01:21] <Ricanelite> cool thank you
[01:21] <Crozar> internet is idle! people somebody tell me if the unresponsive programs and slow occurance of u6.10 is responsible for internet idle state
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> why does the build-dep command not work anymore, when i used to compile pidgin, i'd just run apt-get build-dep gaim, it would build all the dependencies, and i could compile it no prob... now when i run that command,  Unable to find a source package for gaim
[01:21] <lucio> testing the gutsy server installer: I cannot create more than 1 raid partition?!?
[01:21] <stefg> Ricanelite: a standard ubuntu install will take approx. 2.5 G of space. So having 5-10 GB as a root partitions is quite reasonable. Think about setting up a separate /boot and /home partition
[01:22] <Crozar> somebody know anything about network internet eth0 and stuff like that
[01:22] <Jordan_U> Doomguy0505, I always use flac "timidity foo.mid -OF" there are multiple different ".wav" formats
[01:22] <SlimeyPete> z9999: good idea in theory but newbies might get fed up if they keep being referred between channels
[01:22] <Crozar> dont talk off topic , newbies 1 day be theyr helping ur son

[01:23] <Jordan_U> hmhowie, Did you play a DVD ?;)
[01:23] <jetsaredim> can someone explain to me why I can have an active network connection on a device that networkmanager knows about, but yet have networkmanager think there's no active device?
[01:24] <Jordan_U> jetsaredim, Where are you getting these "messages" from?
[01:24] <hmhowie> Jordan_U: even worse. a client wanted me to find out why his internet is so slow, so i used a packet sniffer to find out what was going on. it's illegal to do that nowadays in germany
[01:24] <hmhowie> jetsaredim: i think that would be what's referred to as a bug.
[01:24] <jetsaredim> if i click on the network manager icon it brings up the summary window which says No active connection
[01:24] <jetsaredim> err no active device
[01:25] <jetsaredim> hmhowie: you think?
[01:25] <hmhowie> jetsaredim: but i think networkmanager only displays connections its managing itself
[01:26] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak, Do you have the source repository in your sources.list?
[01:26] <z9999> SlimeyPete: I realize many wish to help, but have encountered help that has worsened the problem several times and the helper then disappeared. I appreciate the effort, but have no idea when the advice is good or just trying to help.
[01:26] <jetsaredim> hmhowie: i assume its managing the interface since it keeps resetting my openvpn connection that's on it
[01:26] <hmhowie> jetsaredim: which is of course pretty silly of it, but things were in a state of flux with network manager when feisty was launched. i hope things will be better in gutsy :)
[01:26] <stefg> jetsaredim: if you do not need several network profiles (i.e. you alway connect to the same router) i would uninstall network manager altogether. Does more bad than good in such a case
[01:26] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: thats what i was just looking at, as i got another error on my laptop on my about a source repo... i didn't know there was a source repo.
[01:27] <jetsaredim> stefg: i'
[01:27] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: i bet thats what it is, let me investigate this for a minute.
[01:27] <jetsaredim> err  I'm actually running kubuntu and knetworkmanager is part of the required package set
[01:28] <Jordan_U> !ubuntu-desktop | jetsaredim
[01:28] <ubotu> jetsaredim: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> Jordan_U: lmao, thats what it is, i've been trying tof igure that out for about an hour.
[01:29] <stefg> jetsaredim: #kubuntu will know about that, speaking of ubuntu (gnome ) there's no problem in uninstalling network-manger. There might be a naming confusion: knetwork manger is different from the nm-applet used for managing multiple network profiles
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> how could i be that freakin dumb
[01:30] <sarthorkhan> macd, i am back with a question, how my linux box now that what is $P1_NET and $IP1 etc. While i have not run any script that define such meterials .. http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html
[01:30] <jetsaredim> stefg: o?
[01:30] <Doomguy0505> Jordan_U: How do I tell when the conversion is over?
[01:31] <zetheroo> anyone know how to work S-Video in Ubuntu with an ATI card?
[01:31] <stefg> jetsaredim: haven't used KDE for years, but i know that KDE had some app named knetwork manager for years, that is different from the lately introduced nm-applet
[01:31] <Jordan_U> IndyGunFreak, It's OK, I never have dumb moments so you having one balances out the universe ;)
[01:31] <jetsaredim> stefg: i c
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> lol, :)
[01:31] <zetheroo> anyone know how to work S-Video in Ubuntu with an ATI card?
[01:32] <th30d0r3> hi, how can i print double sided in ubuntu?
[01:32] <bullgard4> Please recommend an introduction to 'kernel object' and 'kernel object system' in a 2.6 Linux kernel.
[01:32] <Jordan_U> Doomguy0505, It should go back to the command prompt
[01:33] <th30d0r3> i have an hp and i control it through hp device manager but there is no opotion for double sided printing...
[01:33] <Doomguy0505> Jordan_U: It just goes forever, unless it's supposed to

[01:34] <th30d0r3> any ideas...?
[01:34] <Jordan_U> Doomguy0505, It's not, how big / long is the midi file?

[01:35] <stefg> ... and #ubuntu somewhat implies .... "can't be bothered with details or manuals... just make it work for me! " :-)

[01:45] <z9999> Jordan_U: I've removed bcm43xx from being blacklisted, and run iwconfig which returned  "no wireless extensions" for lo, eth0, and sit0.  No idea what to do going forward from this point.
[01:46] <stefg> jetsaredim: what does ifconfig -a tell you?
[01:46] <jetsaredim> stefg: that I'm connected
[01:46] <jetsaredim> (I'm using the machine at the moment)
[01:47] <jetsaredim> stefg: this is a laptop and its got a wired and wireless - of which the wireless is connected
[01:47] <Jordan_U> z9999, It's strange because your card should be supported, maybe ndiswrapper is messing it up, but I hesitate to remove ndiswrapper entirely at this point
[01:48] <jonmills> hello, may I ask someone about supported hardware?  I have a newer Core 2 Duo motherboard.  It uses the Intel ICH8 chipset, which supports RAID 1 in sata ahci mode.  This is supported in Fedora Core 7, but when I boot up Ubuntu 7.04, my disks appear as sda and sdb, so it's not seeing my raid.
[01:49] <jaysonsantos> Jordan_U, where i can check aliases for ethernet cards ? In /etc/network/ i don't have that ethernet configured like wlan0 ?
[01:49] <perner> hello guys, how do i install intel-wifi (for a laptop)drivers?
[01:49] <stefg> jonmills: that's partly intended.... ubuntu prefers using lvm / softraid over hw-fakeraid, but there are tutorials on the forums how to use the driver for that chipset to use the onboard-fakeraid

[01:51] <Jordan_U> ddalton, Go to Ubuntu.com and click "Download Now"
[01:51] <jonmills> Thanks much all who responded.  So then should I use the 'alternate' cd?  or 'server'?
[01:51] <z9999> Jordan_U: We were unable to get it to work for over 6 months until we installed ndiswrapper and experimented by downloading drivers from all over the internet. I believe the drivers we finally found to work were obtained from HP.

[01:56] <z9999> Jordan_U: We used the ubuntu forums and found many suggestions and tried all of them. None were found to work, and several persons assisted over a period of a couple of days and worked us through obtaining a later version of ndiswrapper and trying the various drivers we had downloaded until we found drivers that worked. Now we are unable to run make on ndiswrapper after the kernel update,...
[01:56] <z9999> ...due to missing the build directory not being found for the current kernel version, and the system will no longer boot to the previous kernel version.

[02:11] <savetheWorld> tasmaniac: AFAIK Linux based LDAP servers do a fine job of proving authorization services to any ldap client, on any OS and many people are already using Linux to provide LDAP services to Microsoft based environments.
[02:11] <frojnd> Today I've started computer and X was loading way tooooo long as usuals. Also every program that I start needs more secs to load itself... What could it be wrong? No I haven't update any kenel...

[02:13] <savetheWorld> frojnd: hmm, looks like its not a RAM issue.
[02:13] <garfield>  how can i play flsh video outside of firefox in a player?
[02:13] <tasmaniac> savetheWorld,  yes but my prob is (besides working with ms os) The server at this point in time has to remain a M$ one. I'm trying to get some ubuntu desktops to utilise the server as easily as the XP desktops utilise it
[02:13] <frojnd> < stefg> frojnd: did you tinker with your hostname ?
[02:14] <hmhowie> garfield: vlc can play flashvideo
[02:14] <frojnd> stefg: what o u mean exactly
[02:14] <bullgard4> Does GoogleTalk use the Jabber protocol?
[02:14] <stefg> frojnd: did you change the name of the box ?
[02:14] <frojnd> stefg: NOP!
[02:14] <garfield> hmhowie: how do i do it then?
[02:14] <savetheWorld> tasmaniac: so you want Ubuntu LDAP clients to use the MS LDAP server.  I've not heard of that But I'll bet some has.
[02:14] <savetheWorld> *someone
[02:15] <hmhowie> garfield: you download the embedded video you want to download from a website using an extension for firefox, then you click on it and select open with: vlc
[02:15] <stefg> frojnd: what does the system monitor show ? any app which is chewing on your CPU?
[02:15] <MattJ> bullgard4: Yes
[02:15] <alesan> hi I moved my hdd in a different PC; before I had ati and now nvidia. the nvidia module does not load "Fatal: error running install command for nvidia"
[02:15] <alesan> any idea what should I do?
[02:15] <bullgard4> MattJ: Thank you.
[02:16] <MattJ> bullgard4: http://www.google.com/talk/otherclients.html
[02:16] <garfield> hmhowie: T_T i know that way allready but i dont want to download the video.
[02:16] <Jordan_U> alesan, Switch to the VESA driver to get X working, or install the nvidia drivers from the terminal
[02:16] <alesan> Jordan_U: the drivers are installed
[02:17] <stefg> !nvidia |  alesan
[02:17] <ubotu> alesan: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:17] <tasmaniac> savetheWorld,  yep heap have. I've worked me way thru about 50 forum/wiki/howto/etc pages in the last month or so. (plus a lot of sambas docs) but none have managed to fix my problem.
[02:17] <edn2> i'm doing an apt-get dist-upgrade from feisty to gutsy and i'm receiving an error (--fsys-tarfile returned error exit status 2) on the deb corresponding to the new kernel - any ideas on how to get the upgrade to resume?
[02:17] <hmhowie> alesan: a couple of ideas: 1/ have a look at your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and see if the ati driver is still being specified 2/ see if the ati driver is specified in /etc/modprobe.conf somewhere
[02:17] <alesan> I get that message when I issue a modprobe nvidia
[02:17] <Jordan_U> alesan, How did you install them?
[02:17] <alesan> I did the manual install and xorg.conf is fine
[02:17] <frojnd> am stefg: I have this addon on my pannel that shows CPU use and cpu is jumping constantly from 0 to 5-7% so it slike this: |.|.|.|.|
[02:17] <alesan> Jordan_U: mh I installes nvidia-glx
[02:17] <hmhowie> garfield: a-ha, you want firefox to open an embedded vlc window to play back flashvideo. there may be an extension for that
[02:17] <ShaiGar> where can i search to see if ubuntu has drivers for specific hardware?
[02:17] <savetheWorld> tasmaniac: oh, all this is leading up to an actual problem you have and not some vague notion of being re-assured thats it can be done?
[02:18] <stefg> !hardware | ShaiGar
[02:18] <ubotu> ShaiGar: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:18] <tasmaniac> savetheWorld, I have no problem with ubuntu authenticating off the win2k server
[02:18] <frojnd> stefg: in System monitor is only system monitor app who use CPU...
[02:18] <ShaiGar> thank you
[02:18] <tasmaniac> savetheWorld, yep I said what me prob was I thought :)
[02:18] <savetheWorld> tasmaniac: you seem to be contradicting yourself. %what: "What are you really trying to do?"
[02:18] <alesan> Jordan_U: what is the package I have to install in order to have the nvidia module?
[02:19] <Jordan_U> garfield, I don't think that is possible since flash is proprietary and the only way to get the URL for the actual .flv file is by interpreting the flash file
[02:19] <stefg> frojnd: so is this reproducible? Have you booted again to see if the problem persists?
[02:19] <Jordan_U> alesan, nvidia-glx is correct
[02:19] <alesan> Jordan_U: anyway, on my system there is no file called nvidia.ko
[02:19] <alesan> I just checked
[02:19] <frojnd> stefg: I did but wwith alt + sysreq reisub
[02:19] <MattJ> frojnd: In the System Monitor, click View->Active Processes
[02:19] <Eko_Hermiyanto> life long perl
[02:19] <frojnd> stefg: no good either
[02:20] <Jordan_U> alesan, try running "sudo apt-get remove --reinstall --purge nvidia-glx"
[02:20] <garfield> Jordan_U: thats what i want a flv file
[02:20] <jan_> anyone knows why there are some menu items hidden in ubuntu for my ldap users ?
[02:20] <frojnd> stefg: Oh and when it started (X) this nautilus icon was showing waaay tooo long it disapeared after I cliked on it
[02:20] <tasmaniac> savetheWorld, ok Ubuntu desktop ---> win2k server. Domain login ok. Open files off the server ok. Run a .jar (java) file off the server - not ok.  Open a MS access database off the server via OpenOffice - no ok . Open said files off the ubuntu desktop no problems
[02:21] <Jordan_U> garfield, Only way that I know of to get that is to grab it from /tmp while it loads in the flash player
[02:21] <stefg> frojnd: so waht was the last thing you changed on your machine ?
[02:21] <frojnd> stefg: lemme check history
[02:21] <frojnd> stefg: oh, How do I check history (never done it before, shame)
[02:22] <DWZ> Does anyone know a way to stop gparted from mounting a partition when it's run from the Ubuntu Live CD? Or at least, stop it from re-mounting it once I dismount the partition? (although, it could be Ubuntu doing this rather then gparted)
[02:22] <garfield> Jordan_U: how do i do that?
[02:22] <ShaiGar> damnit, no tests done on the ASUS Striker Extreme Mainboarde
[02:22] <john> #semarang
[02:22] <stefg> frojnd: have you tinkered with anything? tried to rconfigure something or installed something?
[02:22] <frojnd> stefg: I tweak ubuntu but when I installed it (2 months ago) and everything untill now worked just fast
[02:23] <hmhowie> DWZ: you could try stopping the haldaemon
[02:23] <frojnd> stefg: with tutorial: fly like a butterfly ubuntu performance
[02:23] <Jordan_U> garfield, Just look in /tmp ( in the file browser it is FileSystem/tmp ) and the file should be there, for most sites it won't actually have the .flv extension but you will be able to see the preview icon
[02:24] <alesan> I always get this message: "Fatal: error running install command for nvidia"
[02:24] <alesan> which log should I check to have some more info?
[02:24] <alesan> dmesg says nothing
[02:24] <alesan> not even /var/log/messages
[02:24] <DWZ> hmhowie, sadly, I am somewhat stupid :( How can I do that, is there a simple command I can run from the terminal?
[02:24] <stefg> frojnd: you might have overtweaked. i would run a fsck and a memtest first, but without further info there's no way to diagnose the problem over IRC
[02:25] <ffighter> Does it take any special configuration  on xorg.conf for LCD monitors - or the set up is identical to CRT's ones ?
[02:26] <frojnd> stefg: I haven't touched ram, I only set swappines to 10 what is raleted with disks...
[02:26] <stefg> frojnd: you might have overtweaked. i would run a fsck and a memtest first, but without further info there's no way to diagnose the problem over IRC
[02:26] <frojnd> stefg: so I don't think that disks or ram is damaged.. nor cpu
[02:27] <frojnd> stefg: can be fsck run when I'm on computer?
[02:28] <stefg> frojnd: no. you can force a fsck at next reboot  by 'sudo touch /forcefsck'
[02:28] <Slart> ffighter: it's the same..
[02:29] <ffighter> Slart: great, thanks... I ask this becouse I saw the following line: Option "metamodes" "CRT-0: 1280x1024_60 +1280+0, CRT-1: 1280x1024_75 +0+0" on the screen conf for the LCD monitor
[02:29] <ffighter> Slart: Note the CRT there
[02:29] <frojnd> stefg: of So I'll try this and mem test
[02:29] <ffighter> Slart, I thought it would need to be replaced by LCD or something
[02:29] <Slart> ffighter: hmm.. haven't noticed that before.. I guess it might be an old relic from the times when crt = monitor
[02:29] <MattJ> stefg: Nice tip, I didn't know that :)
[02:30] <DWZ> hmhowie, ah, don't worry if you're afk or something - just found the command in Google.  Cheers, thanks for the help
[02:30] <ffighter> Slart, yeah
[02:30] <ffighter> Slart, thanks
[02:31] <Slart> you're welcome, ffighter
[02:32] <hmhowie> sorry DWZ. i was just busy in another chatroom :(
[02:32] <z9999_> I'm totally stumped trying to restore the wireless. It appears that I'm stuck with the 2.6.15-29-386 kernel, and unable to run make on ndiswrapper due to missing kernel build files in /lib/modules/2.6.15-29-386/build. There is no build directory there. I am unable to access any additional updates directly from the PC running  ubuntu and uncertain of what, where, or how to retrieve what...
[02:32] <z9999_> ...additional might be necessary to proceed. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
[02:33] <P5YCH0> hello
[02:33] <P5YCH0> i have a serious question
[02:33] <P5YCH0>  would the better business burea enact on a potnetinal lawsuit if its profitable for them?
[02:33] <LjL> !offtopic
[02:33] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:34] <tonytraductor> greetings
[02:34] <penguincentral> P5YCH0: i'm no lawyer, but money, money, money, money! money!
[02:35] <Jordan_U> z9999_, run sudo apt-get build-dep ndiswrapper, look at what packages it wants to install and grab them from packges.ubuntu.com and put them on a CD
[02:35] <P5YCH0> pengiun
[02:35] <P5YCH0> i got insulted by a company
[02:35] <P5YCH0> they called me a RETARD in capital letters
[02:35] <LjL> !offtopic |  P5YCH0
[02:35] <ubotu> P5YCH0: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:35] <P5YCH0> and dont want to fullfill a warranty
[02:36] <P5YCH0> surely thats a lawsuit
[02:37] <tonytraductor> they called you RETARD?  Was this in a formal, written correspondence, a copy of which is currently in your possession?
[02:38] <tonytraductor> Personally, I dont know if you can sue, unless you work for them, in which case, of course, you may have a case
[02:38] <LjL> tonytraductor: he's not in this channel anymore. please keep on topic
[02:38] <tonytraductor> I don
[02:38] <tonytraductor> I dont know if the BBB would take an interest, though.
[02:38] <tonytraductor> You need to speak with a lawyer
[02:38] <Le^stat> i'm looking for a program to back up evolution mail
[02:38] <tonytraductor> Now...Im having trouble with an install.
[02:39] <tonytraductor> Im trying to install 7.04 on an older machine, PIII, 1ghz, 512mb ram, 120gb hdd.
[02:39] <stefg> !sbackup | Le^stat
[02:39] <ubotu> Le^stat: sbackup is a tool to create complete and/or incremental backups (which can be scheduled to be automatic, and can be done over a network). It is available in !Universe
[02:39] <Le^stat> ta
[02:39] <tonytraductor> When I get to the end of all the choosing names and stuff, and it starts to install, it tells me it cant partition the hdd and quits.
[02:39] <z9999_> Jordan_U: that returns error messages also,
[02:39] <z9999_> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock -  open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[02:39] <z9999_> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[02:39] <stefg> close synaptic
[02:40] <stefg> aaarggghhh
[02:40] <tonytraductor> the hdd previously had Dapper and XP Media on it, and its already wiped clean
[02:40] <Jordan_U> z9999_, as stefg says, close synaptic or any other package manager
[02:41] <stefg> tonytraductor: so are there any partitions on that drive ?
[02:41] <DigeratiX> if I install apps from src, how do I uninstall them if they act bad ?
[02:41] <DigeratiX> im soo used to apt
[02:41] <stefg> !checkinstall
[02:41] <ubotu> checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[02:41] <panosru> i just downloaded Eclipse europa but every time i try to open it i get an error :(
[02:41] <tonytraductor> there were, but I wiped it.  I told the install to make a / partition (ext3) and a swap, thats it
[02:42] <DigeratiX> thx
[02:42] <tonytraductor> actually, it looks like we may be progressing here...I tried several times with no luck, and then removed the disc and rebooted...something seems different now
[02:42] <z9999_> Jordan_U & stefg: OK, did that and this time got
[02:42] <z9999_> E: Unable to find a source package for ndiswrapper
[02:42] <tonytraductor> looks like it got past that point.
[02:42] <barbie> co_smp
[02:42] <tonytraductor> heh...all worked up over nothing...I wonder what I did wrong the first 10 times?
[02:42] <Davo_Dinkum> i just put a PCI video card in and it only gives the screen a black signal
[02:42] <Davo_Dinkum> xorg didnt load
[02:43] <Davo_Dinkum> any ideas?
[02:43] <tonytraductor> I always wait about 5 to 6 months before installing a new version
[02:43] <SlimeyPete> Davo_Dinkum: do you have onboard graphics? If so, disable it in the BIOS
[02:43] <Jordan_U> z9999_, You need to enable the source repos, which you can't do without an Internet connection
[02:43] <stefg> tonytraductor: there might still be a broken partition table on that disk...  you could use gparted to 'set a new volume label' in MSDOS format. that will initialize the partition table
[02:43] <Davo_Dinkum> SlimeyPete: I think it's on autodetect
[02:43] <tonytraductor> of course, this will be my 2nd version of Ubuntu, or first upgrade, since I just switched over from Fedora last fall...
[02:44] <stefg> tonytraductor: to be clear: this will erase everything on that disk
[02:44] <SlimeyPete> Davo_Dinkum: never trust autodetect ;)
[02:44] <tonytraductor> now, on that particular machine, Im just wiping the disk and installing from scracth (its a back-up, experiment machine, my daughter plays on).
[02:44] <Davo_Dinkum> it's autodetect or onboard. those are my options. heh
[02:44] <tonytraductor> but this one Im on is my main machine, with my entire business on it...do I understand that I cant do an upgrade from Dapper to 7.04 without first going to Edgy?
[02:45] <glock> instal ubuntu 6.06 is more easy to use :)
[02:45] <glock> and after u learn 6.06 instal 7.07 7.10
[02:45] <axisys> is this the right chnl to discuss wifi ? i am trying to find out how to connect to LEAP ?
[02:45] <glock> and others ;))
[02:45] <tonytraductor> well, I erased that disk with gparted on my first attempts and reset the partiton table.
[02:45] <Pici> glock: 7.10 is not released yet.
[02:45] <axisys> i do not see LEAP in the wpa2 enterprise eap pull down menu
[02:46] <glock> is is i haveit on dvd ;))
[02:46] <z9999_> glock: Not if you need a wireless connection.
[02:46] <glock> i have ubunt 7.10 ;)
[02:46] <glock> on dvd :D
[02:46] <tonytraductor> Oh yeah...I AM using 6.06 on my main machine still, and love it...but, I know, eventually Im going to have to upgrade...
[02:46] <Jordan_U> glock, That does not mean that it is finished
[02:46] <stefg> tonytraductor: right.... and even going through two upgrades isn't advisable. backup /home (if it's not separate already) and see !cloning how to restore your package selection after fresh install
[02:46] <glock> know theat :)
[02:47] <glock> hey can someone tel me how i make steam work on ubuntu 6.06 ?
[02:47] <Jordan_U> tonsofpcs, You will be able to upgrade directly to Gutsy+1
[02:47] <tonytraductor> i suppose its a bad habit, but I dont even have /home on a separate partition...perhaps I should move it first, eh?
[02:47] <glock> i have instaled wine
[02:47] <dooglus> I just tried saving a 60k text file from a text editor and it took over 10 seconds to do so.  I'm using ext3.  Is there something I can do to speed it up, like defrag or something?
[02:47] <glock> but when i open i can sea where i write ma user and pass
[02:48] <Jordan_U> tonsofpcs, No intermediate upgrades required between LTS releases
[02:48] <stefg> tonytraductor: be safe... have a complete backup now, before you start to do anything
[02:48] <glock> some when can tell me how i instal activeX on mozila ?
[02:49] <glock> jordan from where i get activeX for mozila ?
[02:49] <Pici> glock: You can't ActiveX is windows only.  You might be able to use IE in wine though.
[02:49] <LjL> glock: ...eh? i don't think you can
[02:49] <stefg> tonytraductor: and having /boot at the beginning of the drive and /home separate is good practice for ubuntu
[02:49] <LjL> i don't think you can 1) install activex on anything that's not windows 2) use it on gecko browsers
[02:49] <LjL> so all in all i think you've very much out of luck
[02:49] <glock> first instal gecko browser ;))
[02:50] <z9999_> Jordan_U: I assume this system is now useful only as a doorstop?
[02:50] <glock> because i don't have instaled ;))
[02:50] <stefg> dooglus: try reiserfs....
[02:51] <Jordan_U> z9999_, No, you just need to apt-get build-dep ndiswrapper on another machine and grab the packages from packages.ubuntu.com, it's just that you will probably download some that you already have and don't need
[02:51] <icon9> Is there a way to setup nautilus to be able to to use the backspace key to go back to the previous directory? (or should I be asking in Gnome?)

I'm trying to vpn into my office and it can't find an active device so I figure I need to nm handle and see my wifi in order for the vpn to work
[02:57] <rick__> any ideas how shall i fix my sound issue ?

[02:59] <USMarine> though my lap version aint the same as yours
[02:59] <doug_> why is it whn i launch ktorrent i get cannot talk to ktorrent?
[03:00] <rick__> USMarine,  oh.. prob.. might be it
[03:00] <USMarine> rick__ no faders are down i suppose
[03:01] <doug_> why do i get this message when i launch ktorrent cannot talk to klauncher?
[03:01] <rick__> USMarine,  all the important stuff are working..except my audio
[03:01] <jpastore> does anyone have any ideas about my wifi issue?
[03:02] <USMarine> knetworkmanager
[03:02] <LadyNikon> jpastore: what was iwconfig say?
[03:02] <USMarine> used that?
[03:02] <lonran> hi everybody
[03:02] <doug_> why when i launch ktorrent i get cannot launch klauncher for and how do i fix this?
[03:03] <z9999_> Jordan_U: I found an ndiswrapper-source and -utils on packages.ubuntu.com, and assume I need to download both of them.
[03:03] <lonran> is there any command to install a .deb and resolve dependeces at the same time?
[03:03] <LadyNikon> lonran: apt get?
[03:03] <Jordan_U> z9999_, No, you don
[03:03] <USMarine> lol
[03:03] <Jordan_U> z9999_, No, you don't need the source because presumable you have that already
[03:03] <ironfroggy> what does this mean?
[03:03] <ironfroggy> ?--------- ? ? ? ?                ? /data/multimedia/audio/zztop - bad to the bone.mp3
[03:03] <ironfroggy> the file name is red
[03:04] <lonran> LadyNikon, but if the latest version of the program is not on the repositories and i already have the .deb?
[03:04] <doug_>  why when i launch ktorrent i get cannot launch klauncher for and how do i fix this?
[03:04] <Pici> ironfroggy: Red or purplish?
[03:04] <LadyNikon> lonran: oh
[03:04] <LadyNikon> lonran: i dunno about that
[03:05] <LadyNikon> i have never actually installed a .deb
[03:05] <ironfroggy> red
[03:05] <doug_>  why when i launch ktorrent i get cannot launch klauncher for and how do i fix this?
[03:05] <Lord_Drachenblut> lonran: you should be able to right click the file and there is an install option i think in that menu
[03:06] <lonran> Lord_Drachenblut, it is, but there are not resolved depedences
[03:06] <doug_>  why when i launch ktorrent i get cannot launch klauncher for and how do i fix this?
[03:06] <dooglus> stefg: you're joking, right?  I used to use reiserfs, but was told that it's dangerous, because the recovery tool is pretty bad
[03:06] <dooglus> I just tried saving a 60k text file from a text editor and it took over 10 seconds to do so.  I'm using ext3.  Is there something I can do to speed it up, like defrag or something?
[03:06] <z9999_> Jordan_U: Just the utilities? And both of them end with .deb which I don't know what to do with.
[03:07] <Vad1> Can anyone help me out with a libc6 issue? I can't install several apps because of it, but Synaptic says it's fine.
[03:07] <attackdecay> this isn't directly related, but i've just finished getting gscan2pdf working, and was wondering if anyone knows of a service for free internet or email faxing
[03:07] <Jordan_U> z9999_, Just double click them, you just need to be sure that you get all of the packages that "sudo apt-get build-dep ndiswrapper" would install
[03:07] <LadyNikon> Vad1: what lib issue?
[03:08] <LadyNikon> i may not be able to help.. but someone else might
[03:08] <stefg> dooglus: So now you are told that reiserfs is superiour to ext3 and that you won't need a recovery tool (except the usual good backup regime) ....
[03:08] <doug_> is anyone going to please answer me and help me on how to fix this?
[03:08] <Madnez> guys
[03:08] <attackdecay> i thought grandcentral would, but i now dont think it does
[03:08] <Madnez> anyone knows how to type spaces?
[03:08] <Vad1> I don't know, it says 'dependency not satisfyable: libc6'
[03:08] <Lord_Drachenblut> lonran: did it try to install and said crap about dependencies
[03:08] <Madnez> i have a folder with {space}(x)
[03:08] <Myrtti> Madnez: escape them with a \
[03:09] <icon9> Anyone know how I can get my workspace to be able to jump from 3 to 1 if I have 3 workspaces? Right now I have to use both ctrl+alt+right and ctrl+alt+left, but it would be nice if I only had to use one and could wrap around.
[03:09] <Lord_Drachenblut> lonran: the next thing to try is in a command line is sudo apt-get -f install
[03:09] <Madnez> so its like xxx\(x)?
[03:09] <penguincentral> Madnez: in the terminal?
[03:09] <Madnez> lolz
[03:09] <Madnez> yeah
[03:09] <Madnez> trying to setup samba network files
[03:09] <Madnez> other drives have brackets and spaces
[03:10] <lonran> Lord_Drachenblut, what for?
[03:10] <Myrtti> sentence\ with\ spaces
[03:10] <Madnez> icon, theres an option at your bottom right
[03:10] <fermat> Hello all, I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 and after today's update I cannot use gnome-terminal anymore - the characters are not displayed, I can enter text and start apps, but cant see the terminal output. has anybody similar problems?
[03:10] <Madnez> its a orange like box type
[03:10] <Madnez> just click on it
[03:10] <icon9> Madnez, right, I mean with keyboard shortcuts.
[03:10] <Madnez> lolz, just go to sys and keyboard setups
[03:10] <Madnez> and redesign your own :D
[03:10] <stefg> !gutsy | fermat
[03:11] <ubotu> fermat: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[03:11] <Vad1> What do I need to do to satisfy the dependency with libc6?
[03:11] <icon9> Madnez, that only allow Workspace Right and Workspace left, not Previous Workspace and Next Workspace.
[03:11] <fermat> ubotu, thank you, I'll visit #ubuntu+1
[03:11] <z9999_> Jordan_U: I assume you mean all the files shown as dependencies need to be retrieved as well? Also Looking at the synaptic pkg mgr, it says the kernel source is needed or may be needed to compile the module. I assume that might be where the missing kernel related build files come from? And if so does that have to be retrieved somewhere also? I haven't found that yet.
[03:11] <Madnez> hmmm, never bothered with prev and next
[03:11] <Madnez> right left worked well for me :D
[03:11] <Lord_Drachenblut> lonran: i have tried to install packages with the right click option it will end with unresolved dependencies and the apt-get -f install will resolve dependencies sometimes
[03:11] <LadyNikon> fermat: thank stefg
[03:12] <Madnez> still if you want better shortcuts, redesign your own shortcut ;)
[03:12] <icon9> Madnez, right... Well, I'll get right on that. -g-
[03:12] <Madnez> ;)
[03:13] <Vad1> Anyone have any idea?
[03:13] <Leon_home> hello, i need to install on my Ubuntu "Sun grid engine" , on the installation manual they ask me to "login as root" : what does it mean ?
[03:13] <booster_614> hey guys im having some problems with firefox....its been freezing up on me...like when im on youtube....any ideas on how to fix it ??
[03:13] <atlfalcons866> how do i defrag
[03:13] <gir_> which version of firefox
[03:13] <Madnez> zzzz, how do i enter brackets in terminal?
[03:13] <kbrosnan> booster_614: which adobe flash plugin?
[03:13] <stefg> atlfalcons866: linux is not windows
[03:13] <gir_> I've had flash problems with youtube and veoh before
[03:13] <Madnez> i'm having it register the brackets as a command
[03:13] <Lord_Drachenblut> atlfalcons866: ? defrag in linux.... yea no real need to do that
[03:13] <booster_614> how do i see what adobe flash i have ??
[03:13] <atlfalcons866> does that go for jfs
[03:14] <Madnez> !flash
[03:14] <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
[03:14] <gir_> in a terminal type :  flash-plugin-ver?
[03:14] <Madnez> there
[03:14] <Madnez> follow that
[03:14] <booster_614> ok
[03:14] <booster_614> thanks guys
[03:14] <Leon_home> how can i login as root on ubuntu system?
[03:14] <Madnez> so, how do i enter brackets?
[03:14] <fermat> thank you stefg ;-)
[03:14] <kbrosnan> booster_614: type about:plugins in the address bar
[03:14] <DigeratiX> Leon_home
[03:14] <gir_> ROOT:  you need to set the root password
[03:14] <DigeratiX> is sudo not enough?
[03:14] <gir_> sudo passwd
[03:14] <Madnez> you need to modify your sys setup
[03:15] <Madnez> but usually sudo would do if you are the main user
[03:15] <Pici> Leon_home: You dont.
[03:15] <gir_> su
[03:15] <DigeratiX> sudo su
[03:15] <Pici> gir_: Dont suggest that please.
[03:15] <gir_> is the norm for a root only terminal
[03:15] <Jordan_U> z9999_, You need what would be installed by "sudo apt-get build-dep ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-utils" Nothing more or less
[03:15] <gir_> but sudo works too
[03:15] <Pici> Leon_home: Use sudo -i if you want an interactive sudo/root session
[03:15] <Madnez> yeah but try not do sudo too much... :)
[03:16] <gir_> limit the use of any root action
[03:16] <Madnez> unless you know or dare to try :)
[03:16] <Pici> !sudo
[03:16] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:16] <Jordan_U> z9999_, Run that command on the machine without internet and look at what it tries to install, then grab those packages from a machine that can connect to the internet
[03:16] <gir_> its a very powerful thing and can result very badly if you aren't careful
[03:16] <Madnez> still guys, how can i enter () in terminal?
[03:16] <Lord_Drachenblut> how can i test a deb package before i try to install it to see if dependinces can be resolved?
[03:16] <Madnez> there must be some set of keys for it...
[03:16] <Madnez> &(?
[03:17] <Geeunkown> Can someone help me with how do I wirte to windows it is ntfs format from ubuntu. I have ntfs-3g updated and still I can't wirte to the mounted drive. it telling me I do not have permissions to write to the drive can any one please help.
[03:17] <Pici> Madnez: Are you trying to get to a directory that has parethesis in them?
[03:17] <Madnez> i've forgotten my C++ lines but as i said, there must be some way...
[03:17] <Madnez> yeah
[03:17] <Jordan_U> Madkiss, What do you mean?
[03:17] <Pici> Madnez: Try escaping them with slashes: \(
[03:17] <Madnez> i have a folder like xxx (c)  = c drive
[03:17] <z9999_> Jordan_U: This doesn't look to cut and dry as each thing I appear to need appears to depend on several other things, which in turn depend on several other things adinfinitum.
[03:17] <gir_> Symgis - ntfs-3g
[03:17] <Leon_home> DigeratiX: i am trying to install software named "Sun grid engine" and in the software installation manual they ask me to login as root : are they meaning for me to use the sudo command ? or log as other user named "root" ?
[03:17] <gir_> you need to install that package and reboot
[03:17] <booster_614> ok after i typed about:plugins it shows that all the plugins are enabled
[03:17] <Jordan_U> Madkiss, like "echo \(\)" ?
[03:18] <Madnez> lol
[03:18] <dthacker> Hi, I'm trying to help someone with this question.  https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/13610.  Based on his sources list, it looks like he has the proper repositories.  Why is he getting the unable to resolve error message?
[03:18] <DigeratiX> yeah just sudo before your commands
[03:18] <Madnez> ok gonna try
[03:18] <Madnez> brgb
[03:18] <Madnez> brb
[03:18] <Leon_home> DigeratiX: 10x for your help
[03:18] <panosru> Do i need any firewall or any antivirus for my ubuntu system?
[03:18] <Pici> Leon_home: you should be able to get an interactive sudo session with `sudo -i` just do that instead of logging in as root.  (its the same thing)
[03:18] <ElPenguin> hi guys, is the x86_64 version sufficiently multilib friendly that it can support 32 bit apps?
[03:18] <dthacker> !virus
[03:18] <ubotu> A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[03:18] <Madnez> h: syntax error near unexpected token `)'
[03:18] <Madnez> sigh
[03:18] <penguincentral> panosru: antivirus i wouldn't imagine, firewall depends
[03:19] <penguincentral> do you have a router?
[03:19] <Jordan_U> z9999_, But you have all of the things that they depend on already installed, the command I gave will try to install everything that you need but do not already have, if you install those packages you will have everything you need, dependencies and all
[03:19] <Madnez>  xxx
[03:19] <stefg> Geeunkown: you need to be a memeber of the 'fuse' and 'plugdev' group. Add youself to it and logout /login after you did that
[03:19] <panosru> yes i have
[03:19] <Madnez> xx\(\C) doesnt work
[03:19] <panosru> but i have firewall on it
[03:19] <gir_> I'm quit
[03:19] <panosru> with windows without firewall and antivirus you couldn't live a lot :P that's why i'm asking :P
[03:19] <Madnez> any other ideas how to enter brackets?
[03:20] <Jordan_U> Madnez, What is the exact command you are typing?
[03:20] <Jordan_U> !firewall | panosru
[03:20] <ubotu> panosru: 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).
[03:20] <Madnez>  //servername/sharename  /media/mountname  smbfs  guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode  0  0
[03:20] <Jordan_U> !virus | panosru
[03:20] <ubotu> panosru: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[03:20] <Madnez> yeah thats bout it
[03:20] <panosru> thanks Jordan_U :D
[03:21] <Madnez> linking other com drives to my side = bitch prob with keys
[03:21] <Pici> Madnez: I dont see any brackets in that
[03:21] <SlimeyPete> dthacker: "deb http://%%LOCAL%%archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main"  looks a bit dodgy O.o
[03:21] <Jordan_U> panosru, By default nothing is blocked by the firewall in Ubuntu because by default there are no services listening on any ports ( except ICMP so it can respond to a ping )
[03:21] <Madnez> lolz thats the command line
[03:21] <z9999_> Jordan_U: After I DL the items I think I need, where do I place them on the system running ubuntu, preferably where I could use the synaptic pkg mgr to do the installation and allow it to inform me of missing dependencies that might also need to be DL'd.
[03:21] <Madnez> its like //xxxx/xxx (C)
[03:21] <SlimeyPete> I wonder what's being substituted in for %%LOCAL%%...
[03:21] <dthacker> SlimeyPete: I thought those were referring to CD/DVD?  Not the case?
[03:21] <Geeunkown> Why do someone have to goto so many stages just to get one simple questions answered for something Linux should have fixed by now.
[03:22] <ironfroggy> how do i recursively make all directories readable by group and others?
[03:22] <Jordan_U> z9999_, Just select them all and double click them
[03:22] <ironfroggy> that is +x yes but i dont want to +x the files
[03:22] <Madnez> //xxx/xxx (C) /media/mountname  smbfs  guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode  0  0
[03:22] <Madnez> there
[03:22] <TwigEther> ironfroggy: chown, with the recursive switch. (-R iirc)
[03:22] <SlimeyPete> dthacker: could be I guess, but doesn't look likely
[03:22] <fm> hi
[03:22] <ironfroggy> you mean chmod?
[03:22] <Jordan_U> z9999_, You can also put them in a directory and run "sudo dpkg -i /path/to/directory/*.deb"
[03:22] <panosru> and an other thing i need to know. I installed linux on an old quantom firewall 12GB now i'm running out of space but i loved ubuntu so much that i don't need windows any more all i wan't i can find it on linux (exept flash :( ) but i want to move my current ubuntu system to my second hard drive, is that possible?
[03:22] <Pici> Madnez: try //xxx/xxx\ \(C\)
[03:23] <Madnez> lolz thats a lot of slashes
[03:23] <TwigEther> maybe, depends if you are wibbling permissions or ownership \o/
[03:23] <dthacker> SlimeyPete: I'll have him comment those out and try again.  tnx SP
[03:23] <ironfroggy> but as i said, i only want to change the mode on directories. thats what i cant figure.
[03:23] <Hadeshorn> hi fellow ubuntians
[03:23] <Lord_Drachenblut> yo Hadeshorn
[03:23] <SlimeyPete> dthacker: np, and good luck :)
[03:23] <Pici> Madnez: If that doesnt work, try just escaping the space, I didnt think that brackets needed to be escaped.
[03:23] <Jordan_U> Madnez, You could also just use quotes or tab completion
[03:23] <fm> I need a login and a password to connect to the internet, I fill them in when I start firefox for exemple, but tools such as apt-get won't work ... do you know how to fix this please?
[03:23] <ironfroggy> TwigEther: permissions.
[03:23] <Madnez> hmm
[03:24] <Madnez> like this? '//xxx/xxx (C)'
[03:24] <Madnez> sounds like C++ :D
[03:24] <dystopianray> fm: you use a proxy?
[03:24] <Geeunkown> Doe anyone know how to write or save something in windows from ubuntu linux .  I keep getting permissions errors just to use a mounted drive..
[03:24] <Jordan_U> Madnez, Bash is a programming language :)
[03:25] <Usrl> super quick question: How can I have a program run and not print anything to the terminal, without sending it to an output log?
[03:25] <stefg> fm: are you behind a proxy?
[03:25] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | Geeunkown
[03:25] <fm> dystopianray no I dont
[03:25] <ubotu> Geeunkown: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:25] <dystopianray> Geeunkown: is it a fat32 or ntfs drive?
[03:25] <fm> I don't really know actually
[03:25] <LjL> Usrl: redirect to /dev/null
[03:25] <dystopianray> fm: you type the password into a web based form?
[03:25] <kiosk> bash?
[03:25] <Usrl> LjL: that'll work, thanks
[03:25] <Madnez> yeah but is it like C++?
[03:25] <Hadeshorn> !firefox
[03:25] <Madnez> for at least some of the commands? :)
[03:25] <ubotu> firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins

[03:26] <Juhaz> even calling it programming language is pretty generous
[03:26] <tonytraductor> so long, and thanks for all the fish...
[03:26] <stefg> LadyNikon: this will cost you /all/ your geek credit for ubuntu
[03:26] <dystopianray> Geeunkown: have you installed and run ntfs-config ?
[03:27] <fm> How do I find it out? All I know is that I connect through DHCP, so I had nothing to do :)
[03:27] <tonytraductor> stefg-> thanks for your assistance
[03:27] <Geeunkown> do mean form windows
[03:27] <ironfroggy> how can i get xargs, taking lines from find, to pass the argument ($1) as one argument not separate by spaces? i even tried "$1" but then i get "chmod: invalid argument: `'"

[03:37] <Geeunkown> BIG THANK YOU UBOTU for putting me in the right direction on my write issues to ntfs format.  it worked and was really simple to do thanks..
[03:38] <dystopianray> Geeunkown: ubotu is a bot
[03:38] <dystopianray> !thanks
[03:38] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[03:38] <lovi1> hi,all, while booting my system,i got an error:INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/getty",why?what can i do?
[03:39] <Gowrav> LadyNikon: gaim + LadyNikon = Confused! or LadyNikon- Gaim = Correct
[03:39] <Hadeshorn> hello ubuntians
[03:39] <Hadeshorn> i am having a problem with java
[03:39] <Hadeshorn> no java programs run on my machine
[03:39] <Hadeshorn> trying to get azerues running and it just core dumps
[03:40] <lovi1> jre?
[03:40] <gehel_> Hadeshorn: did you install sun JVM ? (apt-get install sun-java5-jdk)
[03:40] <Lord_Drachenblut> Hadeshorn: skip azureus and go with ktorrent or deluge-torrent for gnome
[03:40] <Hadeshorn> i am running java 1.4.2-02
[03:40] <gehel_> Hadeshorn: and then use it by default (update-java-alternatives -s java-1.5.0-sun)
[03:40] <dystopianray> gehel_: woah that's the jdk, not the jre
[03:40] <npnufn> can some one know a good sniffer for a lan that runs on Ubuntu.
[03:40] <dystopianray> npnufn: wireshark
[03:41] <Hadeshorn> Lord: I belong to some private tracker sites and i need azerues
[03:41] <dystopianray> npnufn: or do you want to sniff traffic from/to other machines on a switched network?
[03:41] <Lord_Drachenblut> Hadeshorn: okay
[03:41] <gehel_> dystopianray: right, I'm a Java developper, so I forget that you dont need ann that ...
[03:41] <Okami> I'm having a video card problem, and im very new to ubuntu can anyone help me with this?
[03:41] <Okami> my display is acting very funny...
[03:41] <gehel_> npnufn: wireshark
[03:41] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: azureus works best with java 1.5 as far as I know
[03:41] <DjViper> how long untill OO 2.3 is in the ubuntu repository?
[03:41] <npnufn> I want to listen to a particular system in the lan, connected by a hub.
[03:42] <dystopianray> DjViper: OO 2.3 will only be for gutsy
[03:42] <npnufn> can wireshark listen to other system interfaces?
[03:42] <lovi1> while booting,i got an error:INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/getty"
[03:42] <Hadeshorn> ok i am trying this apt-get install sun-java5-jdk
[03:42] <Hadeshorn> see if that will work
[03:42] <lovi1> why?
[03:42] <DjViper> dystopianray: okay
[03:42] <dystopianray> npnufn: if you have a hub (not a switch) just tell wireshark to listen to the lan interface
[03:42] <DjViper> dystopianray: is it safe to dist upgrade yet?
[03:42] <gehel_> Hadeshorn: sun-java5-jre should be sufficient for you
[03:42] <whileimhere> I have two computers on the same router that I want to share files between. How do I get started?
[03:42] <sts_> channel
[03:42] <sts_> #channels
[03:43] <Hadeshorn> I am running an x86 processor tho
[03:43] <Hadeshorn> oops
[03:43] <dystopianray> DjViper: dist-upgrade on fiesty? was it previously unsafe?
[03:43] <Hadeshorn> i mean 64 bit processor
[03:43] <Hadeshorn> and 64 bit version of ubuntu
[03:43] <gehel_> whileimhere: to Linux boxes ?
[03:43] <DjViper> dystopianray: is 7.10 usable?
[03:43] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: do you want to run java apps or write your own java apps?
[03:43] <whileimhere> yes
[03:43] <dystopianray> DjViper: it hasn't even had a beta release yet
[03:43] <z9999_> Jordan_U: I DL'd and moved both ndiswrapper-source and - utils, to the ubuntu system, double clicked and installed? them, but still see no build directory which claimed to be needed to run make on.
[03:44] <dgjones> dystopianray, not yet, its still only in testing and bug fixing
[03:44] <Hadeshorn> dys: Just run java apps like azerues
[03:44] <Lord_Drachenblut> has anyone got kickerqt installed successfully?
[03:44] <Leon_home> i need to choose port number for software i am trying to install , how can i choose good port number that not taken by other process ?
[03:44] <dgjones> dystopianray, sorry that was for DjViper
[03:44] <talcite> DjViper: do you mean 7.04?
[03:44] <npnufn> sorry, how can I setup the wireshark, it is not working well.
[03:44] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: install sun-java5-jre
[03:44] <whileimhere> gehel: Yes
[03:44] <Lord_Drachenblut> Leon_home: choose something from like 40000 to 65000 i think should be a good area
[03:44] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: you only need sun-java5-jdk if you are a java developer
[03:45] <Hadeshorn> damnit crashed again

[03:45] <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)
[03:46] <Okami> I'm having a video card problem, and im very new to ubuntu can anyone help me with this?
[03:46] <Hadeshorn> Okami, whats your problem?
[03:46] <Okami> my display is a tad hazy, looks a bit cartoony
[03:46] <Jordan_U> z9999_, Is build-essential installed?
[03:46] <Hadeshorn> Okami, video card?
[03:46] <gehel_> whileimhere: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_share_folders_the_easy_way
[03:46] <Okami> Hadeshorn: well my display is a tad hazy like the drivers are not right
[03:46] <Leon_home> Lord_Drachenblut: the software installation as stopped until i will open the port i choose ? (i need to open port number for the service "sge_qmaster") how can i do that ?
[03:46] <Okami> Hadeshorn: yeah...
[03:46] <gordonjcp> Okami: LCD?
[03:46] <Okami> Gordonjcp: yep :)
[03:46] <Jordan_U> Okami, Low resolution?
[03:47] <whileimhere> gehel: thanks
[03:47] <gordonjcp> Okami: resolution is wrong
[03:47] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: try another torrent client, like ktorrent or rtorrent
[03:47] <Okami> Jordan_u: nope
[03:47] <Okami> Gordonjcp: Awesome..what should i set it to sir?
[03:47] <Hadeshorn> Dys, it just seems my java in general just doesnt work
[03:47] <Hadeshorn> here is the paste
[03:47] <Hadeshorn> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37781/
[03:47] <Leon_home> how i can be sure that the port i choose is unused ?
[03:47] <gordonjcp> Okami: depends on what your monitor is capable of.  LCDs have a "native" resolution that corresponds to the number of physical pixels on the screen
[03:48] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: pastebin the output of: java -version
[03:48] <fermatstheorem> people
[03:48] <iskywalker> hi! i want to run some visual basic scripts on linux, is this possible?
[03:48] <Lord_Drachenblut> Leon_home: don't know right off
[03:48] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: you are from australia?
[03:48] <DSpair> Hadeshorn: Why are you running Azureus as root anyway?
[03:48] <dystopianray> iskywalker: VB6 or VB.NET ?
[03:48] <KenSentMe> !seen _Jaak_
[03:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen _jaak_ - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:48] <iskywalker> dystopianray: script
[03:48] <iskywalker> vbs
[03:48] <Stevethepirate> y0, peeps.. looking for that eye-candy icon program.. that makes like teh icons look l33t... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC5uEe5OzNQ i think has it
[03:48] <fermatstheorem> dystopianray: VB!!! banish the heathen!
[03:48] <Hadeshorn> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37782/
[03:49] <Hadeshorn> There we go
[03:49] <Okami> Gordonjcp: ok well im not sure i understand what to do here to fix this, ive tried auto adjusting, and my monitor handles 1024x768 fine usually
[03:49] <Okami> Gordonjcp: but not on ubuntu apparently...
[03:49] <dystopianray> iskywalker: possibly to some extent with wine
[03:49] <fermatstheorem> [nrx] : greetings of the day, sire
[03:50] <DSpair> Hadeshorn: Are you on a 64 bit platform and 64 bit kernel?
[03:50] <dystopianray> iskywalker: if they'er not compilcated you could rewrite them as perl/bash/python scripts
[03:50] <Hadeshorn> Dspair, yes to both
[03:50] <fermatstheorem> Okami: if you run the command given in xorg.conf it might fix ur resulution problem
[03:50] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: did you install a 1.5 java?
[03:50] <Hadeshorn> Dys I tried
[03:50] <DSpair> Hadeshorn: What version of Azureus?
[03:51] <Jordan_U> z9999_, Try running "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) dh-make fakeroot gcc-3.4 build-essential" on the machine that is not connected to the internet to make sure that you have them all
[03:51] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: run this: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[03:51] <Okami> Fermatstheorem: done that already...not much... i just changed the res to 800x 600 and its looking fine now....but then again its 800x600...
[03:51] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: select the 1.5 java
[03:51] <z9999_> Jordan_U: The package manager shows it installed and up to date. Ver 11.1 49.2 KB
[03:51] <iskywalker> dystopianray: they arent complicated but way too long for manual translation
[03:51] <Hadeshorn> Thanks dys
[03:51] <fermatstheorem> Myrtti: greetings for a fine day, madame
[03:52] <fermatstheorem> Okami: did it ask you to pick the resolution
[03:52] <Hadeshorn> Dspair, umm dont know
[03:52] <Hadeshorn> dspair, let me check
[03:52] <Okami> fermatstheorem: nope...
[03:52] <taime1> when i change startup items in the Preferences>Sessions tool, it doesnt write my changes to the file in /home/user/.gnome2    instead, i have to delete that file so it will regenerate. what is causing this?
[03:52] <fermatstheorem> it should, u sure you ran the dpkg etc, in the xorg commentes as sudo?>
[03:53] <Okami> not as sudo
[03:53] <dystopianray> iskywalker: apparently you can install the 'windows scripting host' in wine and run vbscript
[03:53] <iskywalker> dystopianray: thx, do you have a link?
[03:53] <Okami> how should i run it as sudo? i just ran the restricted drivers...
[03:53] <fermatstheorem> yup
[03:53] <Hadeshorn> Dspair: I am running 2.5.0.0
[03:53] <fermatstheorem> Okami: open xorg.conf
[03:53] <fermatstheorem> and see the comments
[03:53] <Hadeshorn> But i dont have azureus-gcj installed.. do i need that?
[03:53] <whileimhere> will switching to a bigger monitor cause me problems if I have installed linux with a smaller monitor
[03:54] <DSpair> Hadeshorn: Yeah, you need a 1.5 version of the JVM to run that version of Azureus
[03:54] <Okami> wheres that at if you dont mind explaining
[03:54] <dystopianray> iskywalker: i briefly looked over this page: http://www.jsware.net/jsware/vblinux.php3
[03:54] <fermatstheorem> Okami: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:54] <Stevethepirate> anyone know any icon eye candy programs... like the one used in that beryl vs aero youtube video
[03:54] <steel_lady> a short easy question: I have a big external disk and I want to devide it to 2 fat32 partitions. is it ok to do it with gparted and which characteristics and names should I apply to partitions?
[03:54] <Hadeshorn> Dspair: Well I did select 1.5 as the interpreter
[03:55] <Hadeshorn> Dspair: Do i need to reboot for it to take effect or something
[03:55] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: characteristics/names?
[03:55] <Pici> !multijava
[03:55] <ubotu> To set which java version/implementation is to be used as default, use sudo update-java-alternatives
[03:55] <DSpair> Hadeshorn: No, you have to upgrade your installed java
[03:55] <dystopianray> steel_lady: use gparted would be perfect for it, i'm not sure what you mean by 'characteristics and names' though?
[03:55] <Hadeshorn> DSpair: This is what is selected
[03:55] <Hadeshorn> /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java
[03:55] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: just run java --version it should show 1.5
[03:56] <DSpair> Hadeshorn: When you pasted the output of "java -version" it said "1.4.2"
[03:56] <Okami> fermatstheorem: ok well im at the xorg.conf
[03:56] <Stevethepirate> !icons

[03:56] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: sorry that's java -version

[03:56] <fermatstheorem> Okami: at the end of the comment a command is given

[03:57] <Hadeshorn> Dystop: Nope
[03:57] <Okami> fermatstheorem: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[03:57] <gordonjcp> Okami: maybe refresh rate, my monitor doesn't do 1680x1050 at 50Hz correctly but does 1680x1050 at 54Hz
[03:57] <Hadeshorn> Test
[03:57] <steel_lady> fermatstheorem, dystopianray: should they both be primary or in extended partition or how (external HDD for storing and work) and should I change the asignment to the other partition (it calls the first one /dev/sdb1)
[03:57] <Okami> that look about right?
[03:57] <fermatstheorem> Okami: yup!
[03:57] <fermatstheorem> run that as root
[03:57] <Okami> D:
[03:57] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: are you running it as a normal user instead of root?
[03:57] <Knight_On_White> what is the diffrent between : amd64 to ia64 ?
[03:57] <Okami> awesome, so i just sudo that command and it should work?
[03:57] <pl_ice> hey guys, any good gui program for c++ compiling etc?
[03:57] <dystopianray> steel_lady: they can both be primary partitions
[03:57] <Hadeshorn> Dys: you mean azereus?
[03:57] <Stevethepirate> Pici: its not a theme, its like a whole icon mover, sparkle effects, etc.
[03:57] <fermatstheorem> Okami: keep you fingers crossed :-p
[03:57] <Pici> Stevethepirate: Never heard of it.
[03:57] <dystopianray> pl_ice: eclipse, kdevelop, anjuta and there are others too
[03:57] <Hadeshorn> DSpair: How do i check my path and java home environment varaibles
[03:58] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: create two primary partitions, that should do it
[03:58] <Okami> Fermatstheorem: :\ should i keep it in a specific resolution before i do that?
[03:58] <Melancholy> Is there way to raise master volume? Even tho my volume is 100%, i still cant hear a thing
[03:58] <DSpair> Hadeshorn: Do what "ubotu" told you above.
[03:58] <LjL> !code | pl_ice

[03:58] <pl_ice> how bout got gtk=?
[03:58] <fermatstheorem> Okami: no no

[03:58] <fermatstheorem> Okami: run it in terminal
[03:58] <Melancholy> How?

[03:58] <fermatstheorem> Melancholy: donot do what ShaiGar says
[03:59] <LjL> Melancholy: DONT DO THAT
[03:59] <pl_ice> will that be fine for gtk instead for QT4
[03:59] <steel_lady> dystopianray, fermatstheoremt , it will not be a problem when I mount external HDD with 2 partitions? will I have it double mounted?
[03:59] <fermatstheorem> Melancholy: i repeat, DONOT type the command
[03:59] <Pici> Stevethepirate: Sounds like compiz-fusion and maybe the awn dock.
[03:59] <Melancholy> allmost did :D
[03:59] <DSpair> Hadeshorn: To set which java version/implementation is to be used as default, use sudo update-java-alternatives
[03:59] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: they will show up as two disks
[03:59] <dystopianray> steel_lady: you'll have two mounted partitions
[03:59] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: digressing, whyd o you want to paritttion the disk
[04:00] <Knight_On_White> does someone know if the "Sun grid engine" is supporting Ubuntu server 7.04 ?
[04:00] <dystopianray> pl_ice: you should bea ble to code gtk apps in any c/c++ ide
[04:00] <Okami> Fermatstheorem: well it threw up on me :( xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration
[04:00] <Okami>    file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20070918095947
[04:00] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: in my experience, parititoning did cause space issues
[04:00] <LjL> Melancholy: it was a malicious idiot. there are possibly three volume sliders you want to look at: master, wave and a third that may be called in various ways depending on your soundcard
[04:00] <Stevethepirate> Pici: hm..., running Desktop effects atm,...
[04:00] <fermatstheorem> Okami: fine no issues
[04:00] <pl_ice> oki, i'll give it a go, thanks guys
[04:00] <Stevethepirate> anyway to like include those?
[04:00] <Melancholy> LjL:  noticed. Thanks to everyone :)
[04:00] <JC_Denton_> when I lose the connection on my wireless interface any attempt to reconnect gives an ~scioflags device not found error
[04:00] <LjL> Melancholy: in your mixer, make sure all the sliders are visible (i use KMix, so i'm not sure how that's done in other mixers)
[04:00] <z9999_> J linux headersordan_U: That shows  The following extra packages will be installed:  cpp-3.4 debconf-utils debhelper dh-make fakeroot gcc-3.4 gcc-3.4-base html2text linux-headers-2.6.15-29 linux-headers-2.6.15-29-386
[04:00] <fermatstheorem> Melancholy: depending on ur card/driver you will have multiple sliders
[04:00] <z9999_> Need to get 10.9 MB of archives.
[04:00] <z9999_> 90.9 MB of additional disk space will be used.
[04:00] <Okami> Fermatstheorem: so what am i looking at then?
[04:00] <z9999_> Continue (Y or N)
[04:00] <JC_Denton_> upping eth1 after that returns the same error
[04:00] <Pici> Stevethepirate: You'll need to look into using compiz-fusion.
[04:00] <z9999_> Does this mean everything needed is available and only needs to be installed?
[04:00] <z9999_> And should I type Y?
[04:00] <Stevethepirate> Pici: k's
[04:00] <fermatstheorem> Okami: say yes to the backup file
[04:01] <fermatstheorem> Okami: then it will giveyou a list of resolutions to choose form
[04:01] <steel_lady> fermatstheorem I am doing my PhD and have 100G of data and I am also downloading a lot of multimedia, so I thought it would be a good idea to separate it. what do you thonk? And I was also thinking that some systems have problems with too big disks
[04:01] <Okami> Fermatstheorem: it didnt prompt me with that :\
[04:01] <fermatstheorem> Okami: it should! it will tell you the driver name also
[04:01] <Pici> z9999_: That looks good to me.
[04:01] <Hadeshorn> DSpair you were saying something before about environment variables and home paths. what was the deal with that
[04:01] <Hadeshorn> !java
[04:01] <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
[04:01] <Okami> Fermatstheorem: it didnt, it just gave me that line i posted to you....
[04:02] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: f you hae one big disk and 100g wodlnt cause problems, a growing segment need not be restrained by the partion size
[04:02] <boojah_> anyone know about a IM app with V4L2 support?
[04:02] <Okami> oh wait
[04:02] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: you shouldn't need to set java_home or change anything with your path
[04:02] <[nrx] > fermatstheorem: greetings to you too, fair maiden
[04:02] <Okami> Fermatstheorem: i see what your talking about now :D
[04:02] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: if you have an active torrent life ;-) you would end up with some space in ur research parition but none in ur multimedia parition
[04:02] <steel_lady> fermatstheorem, I didn't understand you well, the external disk has 320G
[04:02] <Okami> so what do i do with the file backup?
[04:03] <fermatstheorem> [nrx] : am a dude,

[04:03] <Hadeshorn> Dystop. nah azereus crashed again
[04:03] <Madnez> damn
[04:03] <boojah_> dystopianray: hmm.. i dont think it does without patching it or something
[04:03] <Hadeshorn> Might have to use another torrent program
[04:03] <Madnez> ok whats the command for deleting?
[04:03] <LjL> Madnez: rm
[04:03] <Madnez> del?
[04:03] <Madnez> ..
[04:03] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: I recommend ktorrent or rtorrent
[04:04] <Madnez> thanks
[04:04] <kaje> how do I install ghostscript in ubuntu? I don't see it in synaptic
[04:04] <[nrx] > fermatstheorem: you keep telling yourself that ;p
[04:04] <LjL> !cli > Madnez    (Madnez, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:04] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: 320g so be it, again it is only a recommendation that you donot parition stuff, it doesnt prevent data loss if at all it happens
[04:04] <Okami> Fermatstheorem: so what should i do with that backup>
[04:04] <Hadeshorn> dys: I am gonna see if its an allowed client
[04:04] <fermatstheorem> Okami: nothing
[04:05] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: you are part of a private torrent community that restricts your client usage?
[04:05] <wickers> quick question, how do I force apt-get to install a new kernel? where is the restricted list stored for apt?
[04:05] <Madnez> haha :D
[04:05] <Madnez> thanks
[04:05] <Madnez> just not sure of all the commands available
[04:05] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: and keeping a single partition will prevent artificial restrictions
[04:05] <Okami> Fermatstheorem: well it didnt prompt me in the terminal or anything...so im kinda stuck on nothing right now...
[04:05] <steel_lady> fermatstheorem, not to partition the disk at all? and win will not have problems with too big disk? and it doesn't prevent data loss? :-(

[04:05] <steel_lady> OK
[04:05] <Madnez> hmm cant remove directory
[04:05] <wickers> Anyone? apt-get to install new kernel? won't do it by default
[04:05] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: win will not have problems
[04:05] <Hadeshorn> Dys: Ktorrent is allowed! YAY
[04:05] <dystopianray> steel_lady: make sure you keep multiple backups of your phd work in physicall separate locations
[04:06] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: allowed by your tracker?
[04:06] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: remember to unplug the dirves properly
[04:06] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: and keep some DVD backups of you rimportant stuff
[04:06] <sicka-samo> Any wireless card experts out there? I'm having Linksys problems!
[04:06] <steel_lady> dystopianray, if you have 100G of data, it is not easy!
[04:06] <LjL> Madnez: "man rm" for information. it won't remove a directory without further parameters. "rmdir" removes a directory, but only if it's empty. to remove a directory *and all files or directories in it*, use "rm" with the recursive switch
[04:06] <fermatstheorem> Okami: it will work
[04:06] <z9999_> Jordan_U:  You agree I should continue?
[04:06] <steel_lady> HOW FREQUENT IS FOR THE DISK TO BREAK?
[04:06] <Pici> Madnez: But be careful, it won't prompt you and when your files are gone.. they are *gone*
[04:07] <LjL> steel_lady: depends how often you beat it with a hammer. please don't shout
[04:07] <Hadeshorn> Dys: Hey can Ktorrent install on Ubuntu? Coz isnt that just for Kubuntu?

[04:07] <kaje> Thanks LjL
[04:07] <LjL> Hadeshorn: no, no way it's "just for kubuntu"
[04:07] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: what isthe model
[04:07] <Pici> Hadeshorn: You can install most KDE apps in Ubuntu w/o any issues
[04:07] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: make
[04:07] <LjL> Hadeshorn: like any KDE program, it will work fine in any Linux environment. it's just that the KDE libraries will get installed too
[04:07] <sicka-samo> WMP54GS
[04:08] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: any app in the repos can install on ubuntu, there are no limiations like what you are thinking
[04:08] <VSpike> Hadeshorn: you can install it no problem, it will just pull in a whole bunch of kde libs if it's the first kde app you've isntalled
[04:08] <wickers> Can anyone tell me how I can force apt-get to install the latest kernel? it does an update but omits the new kernel packages

[04:08] <steel_lady> dystopianray, fermatstheorem it seems that the system already has too many partition. it cals one of my internal partitions sda6 as well as this one sda6 (2)
[04:08] <galorin> I am using the info found here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=78238 to create the proper kernel module for my ati remote control, but when running `make` all I get are .o files, and the kernel can't load them, wrong version.  So how do I either turn the .o file into a .ko file or otherwise remedy the situation?
[04:08] <dystopianray> Hadeshorn: pardon?
[04:08] <Hadeshorn> Vspike thanks
[04:09] <Hadeshorn> Dys, Just saying thanks man!
[04:09] <wickers> umm... so no one can help me then?
[04:09] <fermatstheorem> steel_lady: i shoudl go now to find nourishment. will catch up with you later
[04:09] <[nrx] > lol
[04:09] <Hadeshorn> wickers what was your problem?
[04:09] <[nrx] > i've just got nourishment once again!
[04:09] <LjL> wickers: what does "uname -r" say?
[04:09] <dystopianray> wickers: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:09] <wickers> apt-get lists a new kernel for upgrade, but when I update/upgrade it omits the kernel, but leaves it flagged.
[04:09] <dystopianray> steel_lady: partitions on other drives should don't mean anything to your external drive
[04:10] <Pici> wickers: You need to use dist-upgrade for it to upgrade the kernel as well.
[04:10] <sicka-samo> I'm having Linksys WMP54GS problems, I've read wiki to exhaustion... ndiswrapper says my driver is there and working but I don't have wlan0
[04:10] <wickers> ahhh
[04:10] <[nrx] > get this: the compiz site tells you to download a package, it provides a link and then you find, it doesn't even exist hah
[04:10] <wickers> dystopianray: Pici: thanks!
[04:10] <sicka-samo> Tried the new ndiswrapper, still no luck
[04:10] <sicka-samo> anybody help please?
[04:11] <dystopianray> sicka-samo: did you load the ndiswrapper module? sudo modprobe ndiswrapper ?
[04:11] <sicka-samo> yes
[04:11] <steel_lady> fermatstheorem it just says it is conceptronic box
[04:11] <dystopianray> sicka-samo: what chip does your wifi card use?
[04:11] <muzik> Hi i have a computer with version 6.06 of ubuntu, after isntalling for the first time, it asked to update, i did so, now rebooted up and i have no network, how can i fix this? i have searched around for this problem, but to no avail
[04:12] <sicka-samo> will dbl check 1 sec
[04:12] <derring-heng> 1 question: Is there any linux live cd that can read AND write ntfs??can ubuntu live cd do that?
[04:12] <sicka-samo> dystopianray: Linux says it's a BCM4306
[04:13] <wickers> mm...bad lag spike for me there.
[04:13] <wickers> anyhow thanks everyone
[04:14] <dystopianray> sicka-samo: did you unload bcm43xx before loading ndiswrapper?
[04:14] <sicka-samo> yes I blacklisted it
[04:14] <dystopianray> derblubber: you can install ntfs-config on the ubuntu livecd
[04:14] <z9999_> muzik: sounds like my problem too, All was working until I allowed the system to be updated, which apparently upgraded the kernel and now no wireless. BCM4311 here, which appears to not be very Linux friendly.
[04:14] <dystopianray> sicka-samo: did you unload it though?
[04:14] <sicka-samo> perhaps not
[04:14] <sicka-samo> I followed all the instructions on wiki
[04:14] <muzik> yea z9999_ :/
[04:14] <sicka-samo> copy & paste
[04:15] <muzik> mines a wired connection, on a desktop PC, i tried wireless on my server one, but it didnt show up at all
[04:15] <arkaitz> Hey!
[04:15] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi
[04:16] <derring-heng> dystopianray: you mean,like i want to backup some files from xp harddisk.then run ubuntu live cd,install ntfs-config and all done?
[04:16] <dystopianray> sicka-samo: sudo modprobe -r bcm43xx ; sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[04:16] <BigDaddy> Morning all
[04:16] <dystopianray> derring-heng: that's right, if you have internet access from the livecd you can install anything you want
[04:16] <sicka-samo> ok done so now I should try again?

[04:17] <BigDaddy> I am using rhythmbox, and all I can find is the basic 3 buttons and ratings stars
[04:17] <dystopianray> derring-heng: download the deb files for ntfs-config and put them on a usb drive or cd or something and install them manually
[04:17] <sicka-samo> no but I think I unloaded my last drivers, I'll try it again it will take a min
[04:17] <hybernate> is there some way to check if some one logged on my computer thrue the net caus i see when i do top in a consol alot of things happening with root accses and as far as i know i haventlogged in as root this session

[04:18] <sicka-samo> how do I unload ndiswrapper?
[04:18] <dystopianray> sicka-samo: sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper

[04:20] <Hadeshorn> Hey where is ktorrent installed too?

[04:20] <Stevethepirate> dasss: grep "lol"
[04:20] <dystopianray> sicka-samo: did you load ndiswrapper again after unloading it?
[04:20] <dystopianray> derring-heng: maybe the gutsy livecd
[04:20] <dystopianray> derring-heng: or you could make your own ubuntu livecd with ntfs-config preinstalled
[04:21] <hybernate> dystopianray, i get 3 lines with my loggin name one with :0 then i get pts/0 and pts/1
[04:21] <sicka-samo> yes sudo modprobe ndiswrapper right?

[04:30] <c01100011> my laptop screen turns off after 20 min. of inactivity, gnome powersave is turned off, there is no power save in bios, and dpms is disabled in xorg.conf
[04:31] <nubae> This makes no sense to me as I can ping the address
[04:31] <dystopianray> nubae: problem with medibuntu's server
[04:31] <darklight> i have a problem my PCMCIA wireless card
[04:31] <Slart> nubae: seems like the medibuntu server is down
[04:31] <c01100011> is there a fix, or a program to run that will wiggle my mouse and keep the screen alive
[04:31] <nubae> Its not though

[04:31] <DigeratiX> ubuntu computer with 2 users on it, I mount a windows share via fstab and it shows up on the lowest permission user on the systems desktop and I dont want it on the desktop for that user , how to remove link from desktop
[04:31] <axisys> dystopianray: i am sure it need leap
[04:31] <z9999_> jacob: I just finished an update (101 to be exact) and if you are using a Broadcom wireless card get ready for some problems after applying your updates.
[04:31] <nubae> ok, but my entire list in sources.list wont resolve
[04:31] <nubae> archives.canonical.com for example
[04:32] <muzik> Question: Just finished the install of ubuntu on my main PC, my main PC has 2 screens, i tried the TwinView idea [as i have a nVIDIA 6600Si Card]  but it resulted in Signal out of range, and me having to boot into the command line to change back to the old xorg.conf, is there a easier way?
[04:32] <nubae> thats pingable and can be accessed via port 80
[04:32] <dystopianray> nubae: the official ubuntu servers dont' work either?
[04:32] <nubae> no
[04:32] <axisys> is there a way to download the nm-0.6.5-feisty.tar.bz2  w/o creating an account on ubunut forum
[04:32] <axisys> ?
[04:32] <nubae> nothing works... I've checked squid, firewall
[04:32] <nubae> I dont get it
[04:32] <taime1> okay. i have tried removing and checking permissions on ~/.configure/autostart  but that doesnt fix my problem. i still cannot save changes to my session using the gnome-session-properties. what gives??
[04:32] <thechris> Slart: no processes are using it
[04:32] <Dr_willis> muzik,  twinview can take some tweaking.  But its the way to do it.
[04:32] <dystopianray> axisys: ask somebody else to download it
[04:32] <axisys> dystopianray: heh

[04:33] <Slart> thechris: hmm.. how do you run the gnuplot configure thingy? installed gnuplot from the regular repos?
[04:33] <jacob> dystopianray: if you don't get an answer from me, it's because i left ok? i have to go somewhere
[04:33] <nubae> I can pastebin the entire output of apt-get update, but its pretty much a repeition of the line I already pasted
[04:33] <dystopianray> muzik: did you use nvidia-settings to configure it?
[04:33] <dystopianray> jacob: ok
[04:33] <Dr_willis> muzik,  it may be easier to 'tweak' if you got a 2nd machine you can ssh into the first with. to fix xorg.conf without rebooting. Or disable gdm, and use 'startx' till you get the file tweaked right.
[04:33] <muzik> Dr_willis: i tried it to how i could, i have 1 19" running at 1280x1024 and a 17" running at the same res, i tried as the ubuntuforums.com asked, but it broke
[04:33] <Dr_willis> muzik,  voth of these are lcd screens?
[04:33] <thechris> Slart: no idea, it was installed as a dep of something else
[04:33] <muzik> Dr_willis: yes
[04:33] <dpml> Can anyone tell me what the bash command line equivalent is to the process of double-clicking on a debian archive.  For example - if my debian archive is named widget_2.1.1-1_all.deb what would I enter into a bash shell to trigger something via apt-get?
[04:34] <muzik> dystopianray: i saw about it, but i dont know how to get it
[04:34] <dystopianray> dpml: you want to install the deb? dpkg -i blah.deb
[04:34] <dpml> yes
[04:34] <thechris> Slart: my real issue is firefox not running, I'm just hopeing this is related
[04:34] <dystopianray> muzik: you should already have it
[04:34] <c01100011> my laptop screen turns off after 20 min. of inactivity, gnome powersave is turned off, there is no power save in bios, and dpms is disabled in xorg.conf. Any fix / program to keep screen alive ?
[04:34] <dystopianray> muzik: just type 'nvidia-settings' in a terminal
[04:34] <Dr_willis> muzik,  odd. both should be running at 60 then. all ive had to do with my dual screens was run the nvidia-xconfig to enable twinview.
[04:34] <temjin> question about 7.10
[04:35] <nubae> any ideas on this 111 connection refused, does the number 111 mean something specific?
[04:35] <temjin> awhile ago news hit that xorg 7.3 and bulletproof X wouldn't be included
[04:35] <temjin> then it was like
[04:35] <temjin> no wait
[04:35] <temjin> they will
[04:35] <muzik> Dr_willis: i just isntalled it, my main screen is fine, my 17" secondry says Signal out of range, 1 sec trying the nvidia-settings
[04:35] <temjin> which is it? :|
[04:35] <dystopianray> temjin: it will
[04:35] <Slart> thechris: can't imagine firefox needing gnuplot.. you get any error messages when trying to run firefox from a terminal?
[04:35] <temjin> oh, very nice
[04:35] <temjin> :)
[04:35] <dystopianray> temjin: but you should be asking in #ubuntu+1
[04:35] <muzik> bash: nvidia-settings: command not found
[04:35] <temjin> ah, didn't know about that chan
[04:36] <axisys> dystopianray: aparently i have an account.. heh
[04:36] <muzik> its version 6.06 of ubuntu
[04:36] <Dr_willis> muzik,  hmm.. Thats part of the nvidia-glx drivers package i thought. You did install the nvidia drivers?
[04:37] <nubae> the server I'm getting this on is working perfectly, accessing internet, serving dhcp via ltsp, etc... the only error I get is this... where could I look to fix it? (must be something to do with aptitude)
[04:37] <MartinW> The packages in Synaptic Package manager are very out of date (e.g. Thunderird 1.5 instead of 2). What should I do?
[04:37] <thechris> Slart: just the errors due to Xorg.conf being set up for a touchscreen and me not having one
[04:37] <dystopianray> muzik: ah 6.06 may be the problem, with 7.04 it comes with nvidia-glx
[04:37] <muzik> Dr_willis: noob in your presence, no not as of yet, it seems to work fine wihout it, i wasnt sure if that would be included in the dist
[04:37] <muzik> ah.
[04:38] <Leon_home> if i take to transfer my HDD with ubuntu to new computer , ubuntu will work ? or i need to re-install ? or update some files ?
[04:38] <MartinW> Sorry if it is an obvious question but I'm still learning linux (I switched Saturday)
[04:38] <LadyNikon> Leon_home: update ubuntu to the new system
[04:38] <tseug> new sysstem?
[04:38] <LadyNikon> linux isnt as fragile
[04:38] <tseug> gutsy gibbon is out?
[04:38] <dystopianray> Leon_home: you may need to configure x.org again but otherwise it should work
[04:38] <LadyNikon> tseug: check in ububntu+1
[04:39] <dystopianray> tseug: only alpha releases are out
[04:39] <LadyNikon> ubuntu+1*
[04:39] <Slart> thechris: and then what? it crashes? hangs?
[04:39] <muzik> dystopianray: should i update? the only reason i got 6.06 as it had more on the support time [6.06 to 09, 7.04 to 08] 
[04:39] <nubae> leon_home dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg on the new system
[04:39] <Leon_home> dystopianray: what is x.org ?
[04:39] <Slart> thechris: or rather.. what about firefox doesn't work?
[04:39] <dpml> dystopianray: thanks - that worked (just for reference - what is the difference between apt-get and dpkg and does the former use the later?)
[04:39] <LadyNikon> !x

[04:39] <thechris> Slart: firefox just never starts
[04:39] <Dr_willis> muzik,  unless you are a business wanting Long term support. I dont see the need to worry about that. :)
[04:40] <dystopianray> dpml: apt-get uses dpkg
[04:40] <axisys> i failed to upgrade the network-manager.. it failed like this http://rafb.net/p/rVdNUZ67.html
[04:40] <muzik> Dr_willis: lol aslong as this room supports it, i'll upgrade, bbs
[04:40] <sholsinger> \msg nickserv
[04:40] <Dr_willis> muzik,  gutsy is due out in a few weeks also.  Hopefully the nvidia/ati driver stuff will be improved even more.
[04:40] <axisys> anyone suggest a workaround?
[04:40] <dpml> dystopianray: thanks!
[04:40] <dystopianray> dpml: read the man pages for both apps
[04:40] <Slart> thechris: oh... that's a new one.. are there any firefox processes running? (ps -A | grep -i firefox to check)
[04:40] <dpml> dystopianray: will do
[04:40] <BigDaddy> thechris - did you try launching firefox from a terminal and see what output it shows?
[04:40] <Dr_willis> muzik,  so if you are going to reformat to update, may want to just hold off for a few more weeks. ;)
[04:40] <nubae> pretty please... what could be wrong with my apt-get and connecting? what could cause non of my sources.list to be accessed?
[04:41] <Slart> BigDaddy: " just the errors due to Xorg.conf being set up for a touchscreen and me not having one"
[04:41] <muzik> Dr_willis: its less than 2 hours old install, i just want to play around in it, another reinstall in a few weeks will help, clear up all the mess i made
[04:41] <nubae> I have bind9 and dansguardian installed, I thought they might be culprits
[04:41] <DigeratiX> ubuntu computer with 2 users on it, I mount a windows share via fstab and it shows up on the lowest permission user on the systems desktop and I dont want it on the desktop for that user , how to remove link from desktop
[04:41] <Dr_willis> muzik,  may want to try out the beta remeases of gutsy if its just a 'testing' machine.
[04:41] <nubae> but dansguardian isnt running anymore, so cant be, and bind... well would affect it if its off
[04:41] <BMT> what is the url to the website where i can post a error, and put the url in this channel ?
[04:42] <morpheus> any virtualbox gurus in here
[04:42] <Slart> !pastebin
[04:42] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:42] <dystopianray> !pastebin
[04:42] <muzik> Dr_willis: LOL its my main computer, i just want to test ubuntu on it as i use on my server, i want more experiance in it, but at the same time learn to use it in the long term
[04:42] <BigDaddy> damn
[04:42] <thechris> BigDaddy: no errors.  app simply doens't start
[04:43] <garette> hello all, how to install wgetpaste on ubunut?
[04:43] <garette> ubuntu**
[04:43] <morpheus> I've got an ubuntu box with virtual box on it, every time i try and isntall a guast os (ubuntu) it hangs at about 70% then fails
[04:43] <Slart> BigDaddy, thechris: never had firefox just silently die on me without any kind of error
[04:43] <BigDaddy> thechris - how about starting firefox in safemode? no plugins
[04:44] <kbrosnan> BigDaddy: safe mode only skips loading extensions, not plugins
[04:44] <lnx_> i can run visual studio c# 2005 with wine ?
[04:44] <kbrosnan> but it is still a good step to take
[04:44] <Slart> thechris: good idea from BigDaddy there.. "firefox -safe-mode" to try that
[04:44] <makiolo> use vmware for visual studio
[04:44] <BigDaddy> kbrosnan - that's what I meant.
[04:45] <thechris> BigDaddy: how?
[04:45] <thechris> ok, scrolled down enough to see the answer
[04:45] <BMT> when i run vlc in a terminal the application will show up and then disappear....this is the error i got in the terminal
[04:45] <BMT> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37787/plain/
[04:45] <Slart> thechris: you could start with a fresh profile also... see if that does you any good "firefox -Profilemanager"
[04:45] <Slart> thechris: sorry "firefox -ProfileManager"
[04:46] <garette> BMT, lol how did you did the nopaste?? plz... i used to use wgetpaste i dunno whats the equvalent used on ubunut
[04:46] <dystopianray> lnx_: wine doesn't support .net
[04:46] <thechris> Slart: safe-mode, same resuslts, profilemanager, same results
[04:46] <BMT> garette, i am sorry i do not understand
[04:47] <nubae> garette, pastebin
[04:47] <nubae> search it on google
[04:47] <garette> nubae, pastebin
[04:47] <garette> ok
[04:47] <garette> i will
[04:47] <garette> thanks
[04:47] <BMT> nubae, thanks
[04:48] <kilman> Can sombody tel me if the Desktop Edition Desktop Edition will work on my Dell precision m90 laptop ?????
[04:48] <nubae> can someone try helping me out with  my apt issue?
[04:48] <Slart> thechris: weird... checked the syslog? "tail /var/log/syslog" anything from firefox in there?
[04:48] <nubae> just to recap... apt-get update gives me connection refused for my entire sources.list
[04:49] <Dr_willis> kilman,  is there somthing really weird about that desktop? ive used the Desktop eds on everything from a Pent 1-100, to mondern machines..
[04:49] <thechris> Slart: i think gconf might be broken.  I rm'd ~/.mozilla and now i get net errors about gconf
[04:49] <Slart> nubae: I'd check for network errors or such
[04:49] <nubae> I have net access to the sources no problem (ping, web visit)
[04:49] <darklight> bye
[04:49] <Dr_willis> kilman,   theres some laptop forums also on the ubuntu sites. that may have notes on any issues with a specific brand/make/model.
[04:49] <nubae> what log.. dmesg, messages?
[04:49] <lnx_> dystopianray , i heard about people that succesed to run it but i dont find i turtial now
[04:49] <garette> nubae, pastebin is not that flexible as wgetpaste was, do you anyother things?
[04:50] <Pici> garette: What is wgetpaste?
[04:50] <thechris> I might try to reboot
[04:50] <rpedro> I just put a pci nic on an ubuntu feisty pc (it was using a pci wireless card before), but the card doesn't show in the network options, shouldn't it autodetect? or do i need to configure something?
[04:50] <dystopianray> lnx_: it depends on .net, .net does not work in wine
[04:50] <LjL> find pastebin | garette
[04:50] <LjL> !find pastebin | garette
[04:50] <ubotu> garette: Found: pastebinit
[04:50] <garette> Pici, its used to paste
[04:50] <P3nnywise> Where can i get earlier versions of Ubuntu
[04:50] <thechris> afterall, i've had terrible luck with ubuntu's ability to work with X11's "startx"
[04:50] <alex-weej> P3nnywise: why would you want to do that?
[04:50] <Slart> thechris: net errors about gconf?? it's getting weirder.. I'm going with the windows-solution here.. uninstall, reinstall firefox
[04:50] <rhalff> since when did shift+backspace become logout ? is this an ubuntu feature ?
[04:50] <garette> Pici, like what you guys use pastebinit for
[04:50] <Dr_willis> thechris,  really? i use the 'startx' stuff and my own '.xinitrc' all the time.
[04:50] <P3nnywise> alex-weej, cuz latest version of ubuntu doesnt work
[04:51] <kilman> no I just want to no if the Desktop Edition Ubuntu 7.04 will work on my laptop??
[04:51] <dystopianray> rhalff: are you using a dvorak keymap?
[04:51] <rhalff> it was control alt backspace
[04:51] <alex-weej> P3nnywise: the 7.10 beta or 7.04?
[04:51] <LjL> P3nnywise: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/
[04:51] <nubae> rhalff... thats restart X
[04:51] <BMT> can anyone help me with my vlc issue ?
[04:51] <dystopianray> rhalff: something is wrong with your keymap
[04:51] <rhalff> dystopianray,  how can I determine that ?
[04:51] <P3nnywise> alex-weej, 7.04
[04:51] <nubae> not ubuntu specific, all linuxes do that
[04:51] <rhalff> dystopianray, ah could be :)
[04:51] <nubae> all with X installed of course
[04:51] <dystopianray> rhalff: well you'd know if you were using dvorak
[04:51] <alex-weej> P3nnywise: 7.10 beta is due out soon, you should help test it! :)
[04:51] <BMT> when running vlc in a terminal...the app appeared, and then it disappeared...here is the error that i got :    http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37787/plain/
[04:52] <P3nnywise> alex-weej, im new to ubuntu i doubt my help would.. help :p
[04:52] <dystopianray> rhalff: are you using a non US English keyboard layout/keymap ?
[04:52] <LjL> P3nnywise: no need to resort to old and unsupported releases - try 6.06, which is perfectly current, first
[04:52] <LjL> !lts | P3nnywise
[04:52] <ubotu> P3nnywise: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[04:52] <rhalff> dystopianray, probably my keymap is wrong, because mc is behaving strange with function keys also. however I think I have this behaviour on every latest install of ubuntu.
[04:53] <P3nnywise> LjL, thats the one i want :)
[04:53] <nubae> has nothing to do with keyboard
[04:53] <dystopianray> rhalff: do you have a standard generic qwerty keyboard?
[04:53] <LjL> P3nnywise: http://releases.ubuntu.com
[04:53] <nubae> cntrl+alt+backspace = X restart
[04:53] <kilman> Can sombody tell me please if the Desktop Edition Ubuntu 7.04 will work on a laptop or if there is a spetial Edition for laptop??
[04:53] <Stevethepirate> yes
[04:53] <LjL> !laptop > kilman    (kilman, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:53] <Stevethepirate> it will.
[04:53] <dystopianray> rhalff: i've seen shift+backspace killing X on a dvorak keymap years ago
[04:53] <MartinW> When I try to reload in synaptic I get this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37789/ error. What am I doing wrong?
[04:53] <dystopianray> kilman: it will work on a laptop
[04:54] <rhalff> dystopianray, yes, going to find where to change the keymap now.
[04:54] <dystopianray> kilman: there are only two editions, desktop and server
[04:54] <kilman> thanks a lot :-)
[04:54] <BMT> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37787/plain/
[04:54] <LjL> !gpgerr > MartinW    (MartinW, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:54] <BMT> when i run vlc in the terminal i get errors ...here are the errors : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37787/plain/
[04:55] <LjL> what an ugly error
[04:55] <nubae> (04:51:12 PM) rhalff: it was control alt backspace
[04:55] <rhalff> dystopianray, well I never accidently logged out, and now it happens many times. shift+backspace happens fast :)
[04:55] <nubae> That is not a keyboard error
[04:55] <P3nnywise> LjL, does Ubuntu have this release one as a Torrent file?
[04:55] <Stevethepirate> BMT: looks like lack of memory
[04:55] <LjL> P3nnywise: i think so
[04:55] <Stevethepirate> or, the vlc has bad memory allocation
[04:55] <thechris> Slart: so, the reboot works
[04:55] <LjL> Stevethepirate: looks like an xvideo problem to me
[04:56] <BMT> Stevethepirate, i have 2 gb of memory on a dual core laptop
[04:56] <thechris> I always forget that ubuntu's X11 support is flakey
[04:56] <[nrx] > can anyone offer any suggestions as to why KDE\GNOME wont logout for me? all I get is a blank screen after 3-4 seconds and the pc does nothing
[04:56] <P3nnywise> LjL, do you know where? im not a very good searcher
[04:56] <Stevethepirate> Then LjL is right.. xvideo has phailed
[04:56] <LjL> perhaps try "vlc --no-overlay"
[04:56] <dystopianray> BMT: what video card do you have?
[04:56] <BMT> dystopianray, intell
[04:56] <BMT> intel
[04:57] <td-linux> hmm I thought intel had good support
[04:57] <LjL> P3nnywise: right there on the page i gave you. http://releases.ubuntu.com/dapper/
[04:57] <BMT> dystopianray, do want to know the exact name of the video card in the laptop ?
[04:57] <oandrew> watch me unravel ,I'll soon be naked
[04:58] <dystopianray> BMT: try adding this to your xorg.conf (in the device section) and then restart X: Option "LinearAlloc" "8160"
[04:58] <oandrew> llying on the floor ,i've come undonw
[04:58] <BMT> dystopianray, here is the gfx card : Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[04:58] <BMT> dystopianray, i will try that
[04:58] <Stevethepirate> LjL: yo.
[04:59] <Macris> Hello everyone, i am looking a live cd distro that comes with network monitoring and performance testing tools like iperf... can anyone suggest me a good network testing disrtro
[04:59] <Stevethepirate> LjL: Do you know of any icon eye candy programs... like.. i saw one in a youtube video of beryl vs aero.. had a nice icon thingy... like sparkle effects, etc.
[04:59] <dystopianray> BMT: It'll look something like this: http://pastebin.com/m622f8c4c
[04:59] <LjL> Stevethepirate: hm i'm not too much into eye candy
[05:00] <[nrx] > Can anyone offer any help as to why when I try and logout/shutdown within KDE/GNOME the screen goes blank and doesn't do anything?
[05:00] <BMT> dystopianray, should i replace what i have now for 'option' with what you suggest
[05:00] <BMT>  ?
[05:00] <dystopianray> Macris: nubuntu might
[05:00] <graigs> is there a way to disable suspend to ram?  the time i actually used it it screwed up my first hdd partition. and i dont want to have it going at all.
[05:00] <dystopianray> BMT: you can have multiple options
[05:00] <LjL> graigs, it's often problematic currently.
[05:00] <dystopianray> BMT: unless you have an existing LinearAlloc option, then it won't matter
[05:00] <oandrew> Macris: and backtrack??
[05:00] <BMT> dystopianray, so i can add your suggesttion right under the option that is already there
[05:00] <graigs> yeah, i know. thats why i wanna disable it.
[05:00] <dystopianray> BMT: yes
[05:00] <Macris> dystopianray: allready checked that one out, it seems to be outdated and laging iperf
[05:01] <BMT> dystopianray, ok i don't so let me try that now
[05:01] <graigs> will disabling acpi prevent ubuntu from entering standby?
[05:01] <dystopianray> graigs: yes
[05:01] <graigs> i disabled acpi once. and the suspend command was still on the menu.
[05:01] <LjL> graigs: it surely will, but it seems a bit drastic
[05:01] <Macris> oandrew: will check that, thanks
[05:02] <graigs> so if i disable acpi, and i click the suspend button, it wont suspend?
[05:02] <graigs> last time i suspended, i had to reinstall ubuntu :(
[05:02] <BMT> dystopianray, this is what the section look like now without your suggestion
[05:02] <dystopianray> graigs: why did you have to reinstall?
[05:03] <LjL> graigs: i wouldn't try it myself, but that should be the result yeah. it's weird that trying to suspend had *such* an effect, though
[05:03] <graigs> i dunno, i left it suspended over night, and when i came back, it wouldn't enter ubuntu. and so i reset it, and grub was gone.
[05:03] <fn0rd> !robotics
[05:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about robotics - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:03] <Stevethepirate> [nrx] : when its shutting down, press Ctrl-Alt-F1 and see if any error messages occur
[05:04] <graigs> k. thanks.
[05:04] <dystopianray> BMT: ?
[05:04] <MrChicken> Hello :)
[05:04] <BMT> dystopianray, this is what it look like with your suggestion : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37787/plain/
[05:04] <fn0rd> Anyone here know about ubuntu and robotics - hobbyist level - inks or sutuff?
[05:04] <BMT> dystopianray, is that right ?
[05:04] <LjL> graigs: see http://jeremy.sunriseroad.net/2007/02/how-to-disable-suspend-and-hibernate-for-all-users-in-ubuntu/ and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1151456
[05:04] <jonmills> Does anyone know how to make 7.04 support the hardware-fakeraid built into the Intel ICH8 chipset common in most Core 2 Duo motherboards?
[05:05] <LjL> graigs: you really don't want to completely disable ACPI i think
[05:05] <graigs> probably not.
[05:05] <jonmills> I've tried the Desktop cd, tried the Alternate cd, no luck...
[05:05] <e\ectro_> has anyone been able to get the net-installer to auto install from a local repository onsite?  I have mirrored a repository, but it appears that the netboot installer looks for a directory called debian-installer under {main,restricted,etc}.
[05:05] <graigs> is there a config file that would let me disable just suspend to ram?
[05:05] <dystopianray> BMT: is that supposed to be your xorg.conf?
[05:05] <BMT> dystopianray, a section of it ....yes
[05:05] <e\ectro_> is there a way to mirror the debian installer directories under those parent directories?
[05:05] <dystopianray> BMT: you've given me the wrong thing, that's just your original error message link
[05:06] <BMT> dystopianray, sorry.....i will just try your suggestion and then restart x
[05:06] <fn0rd> is there a channel devoted to linux/robotics/hovvyist stuff?
[05:06] <JDLimbo> ok ok, gnome fails to load, goes as far as my login screen. When I try to login it says it failed to load, then says the problem is sometimes caused by .ICEauthority in my home directory being write-protected
[05:06] <dystopianray> BMT: if you pastebin it and give me the right link i'll have a look
[05:06] <LjL> graigs, first link i gave you says " Find the keys named can_hibernate and can_suspend. Uncheck them both." -- I would guess that leaving "can_hibernate" alone would only affect suspend-to-ram
[05:06] <fn0rd> @hobbyist duh!
[05:06] <JDLimbo> I'm running from the liveCD right now
[05:06] <graigs> ok. those links were helpful.
[05:07] <LjL> graigs: still, those are not systemwide settings... just gnome-wide
[05:07] <JDLimbo> checked my home dir and .ICEauthority is indeed write-protected
[05:07] <JDLimbo> claims it's owned by 1000
[05:07] <graigs> so, someone could suspend the thing from gdm?
[05:07] <LjL> graigs: probably not from gdm... but from a terminal

[05:20] <Stev> BMT: i haven't used the installer from sun
[05:20] <BMT> stev, apt-get ?
[05:20] <JDLimbo> it crashes sometimes but has never screwed it up this bad. I do have to use sudo for that script
[05:20] <Stev> BMT: yes
[05:20] <Jordan_U> JDLimbo, They probably used sudo when they shouldn't have also. Stay away from that script if that's what did it and run "sudo chmod yourusername:yourusername ~/.ICEauthority"
[05:21] <Stev> BMT: sun-java6-jdk
[05:21] <Jordan_U> JDLimbo, Scratchh that
[05:21] <JDLimbo> ok
[05:21] <Jordan_U> JDLimbo, I meant chown, not chmod
[05:21] <BMT> Stev, let me try that

[05:22] <ubuntu_begineer> but its working on this version why it any picking it up in newer version ?
[05:22] <Jordan_U> JDLimbo, See the link from ubotu for what I think happened ( if ubotu is awake )
[05:22] <combinio> is this possible to connect MAC OS X to Kubuntu 7.04 to have INTERNET ?? :)) i mean if i have wireless and my neighbour has MAC OS X - is this possible to share a network with him ??
[05:22] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: run: sudo update-pciid
[05:22] <combinio> he's Macintosh and i have PC :] 
[05:22] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: then pastebin the output of lspci again
[05:23] <JDLimbo> ubotu !gksudo
[05:23] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[05:23] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: do 'sudo modprobe e1000' in a terminal
[05:23] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: sorry that's: sudo update-pciids
[05:23] <ubuntu_begineer> no problem
[05:23] <combinio> does any of u have also macintosh ? :] 
[05:23] <combinio> i mean MAC OS X & (K)Ubuntu ?? ;>
[05:24] <BMT> stev, downloading......
[05:24] <Stev> BMT: ok tnx
[05:24] <Jordan_U> combinio, I do, and I know that what you are trying to do it possible, unfortunately I don't know exactly how
[05:25] <combinio> Jordan_U: but u think is this possible ? :))
[05:25] <ubuntu_begineer> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37791/plain/
[05:25] <Jordan_U> combinio, I know it is
[05:25] <ubuntu_begineer> @ urusul i have do it everytime i load ubuntu ?
[05:25] <combinio> Jordan_U: thaaaaanks a lot then :) i'm gonna get some more help otherwhere but u helped me a lot :)
[05:25] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: have you run modrobe?
[05:26] <spyteman> can someone help me with lirc and my ati remote control? it's running okish with default drivers by ubuntu but some buttons are not working, and i'm not sure how i get it to work with lirc (or what driver i should use to compile lirc)
[05:26] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: if it works you just have to add e1000 to the /etc/modules file
[05:26] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: pastebin the output of lspci

[05:26] <stefano_> Anyone looking for a good C/C++ IDE, try EasyEclipse, seams rather fast compared to "Eclipse"
[05:26] <dystopianray> stefano_: what is the difference?
[05:26] <stefano_> http://www.easyeclipse.org/site/home/
[05:27] <nephish> anyone know of an app that can limit bandwidth for a particular port ?
[05:27] <stefano_> dystopianray, I have tried eclipse and i was repelled from that ide because it was rather too slow for anything.
[05:27] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: and the driver will load each boot. but first you have to tell me if the 'sudo modprobe e1000' succeed and if you have a net interface now ;)
[05:27] <ubuntu_begineer> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37792/plain/
[05:28] <stefano_> But EasyEclipse comes in the flavor you want. If you need it for C/C++, you only get that.
[05:28] <dystopianray> stefano_: it's just eclipse packaged differently
[05:28] <Stev> BMT: i'm trying to install mobility pack for netbeans butit complains that i've no jdk installed -.-
[05:28] <benj3one> can I get some help with this?
[05:28] <benj3one> root@ubuntu:/var/www# touch test.txt
[05:28] <benj3one> touch: cannot touch `test.txt': Read-only file system
[05:28] <ubuntu_begineer> but how can i test it its working fine on this version its not working rite on a newer version
[05:28] <fermatstheorem> my brothers my brothers
[05:29] <benj3one> almost all places are read only!!
[05:29] <stefano_> dystopianray, well that might be true but performance wise it isn't the same eclipse, at least it works like i want it to. Eclipse was lagging for me, AMD X2 6000+, 2gig ram.
[05:29] <Puppy_>  what is a good media player for mp3 players (I have the samsung k5 not an ipod)?
[05:29] <dystopianray> stefano_: how exactly have they made it faster?
[05:29] <fermatstheorem> Puppy_: amarok, rhythmbox
[05:29] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: run 'ifconfig -a' if you see the interfaces ( eth0 or eth1) the driver loaded and is driving the hardware
[05:29] <Puppy_> fermtstheorem: I will try them.
[05:29] <Puppy_> thanks
[05:29] <fermatstheorem> Puppy_: with appropriate plugins ofcourse
[05:30] <stefano_> dystopianray, I am not pushing anyone to use it. Well, check their site. I don't know how they did it, but does on my machine.
[05:30] <fermatstheorem> Puppy_:
[05:30] <fermatstheorem> Puppy_: donot forge to download hte plugins
[05:30] <stefano_> Compare to "vanilla" eclipse.
[05:30] <dystopianray> stefano_: seems like a waste of time and more work having to maintain it outside of apt
[05:30] <Puppy_> Fermatstheorem: what do you mean?
[05:30] <fermatstheorem> Puppy_: ubuntu by default does not have codecs for mp3 aac etc due to license issues
[05:31] <rafaelscj> hello
[05:31] <rc55> Does anyone here have experience with using ZFS on Ubuntu? I'd like to ask a few related questions and would really appreciate some help.
[05:31] <marlun> When I open up a gnome-terminal it is very small and the text seem to be very very small too. It doesn't help to use the zoom functions. Any idea what could be wrong?
[05:31] <fermatstheorem> !mp3 | Puppy_
[05:31] <ubotu> Puppy_: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[05:31] <ubuntu_begineer> the command is not returning anything
[05:31] <Puppy_> fermatstheorem: I have them installed already.
[05:31] <stefano_> dystopianray, yeah i thought about that too. But EasyEclipse website offers a linux bin, you just download, extract and ./eclipse.
[05:31] <rafaelscj> fermatstheorem, ubuntu have free codecs
[05:31] <Puppy_> thanks. bye.
[05:31] <cmak> when ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-server are the same with just different preinstalled stuff, then why is the server edition supported longer?
[05:31] <fermatstheorem> Puppy_: if you use kde, amarok rocks
[05:31] <dystopianray> stefano_: i can just sudo apt-get install eclipse
[05:31] <Puppy_> ok. thanks
[05:31] <Puppy_> bye
[05:32] <stefano_> dystopianray, ^^ i am not pushing either. Just gave my opinion about EasyEclipse being faster out of the box than Eclipse is.
[05:32] <BMT> Stev, sorry for the delay
[05:32] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: wht to do now ?
[05:32] <BMT> Stev, this is what i got after doing a locate on ' sun-java' : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37793/plain/
[05:32] <Stev> BMT: np, tnx to you for taking time to help me
[05:33] <fermatstheorem> eclipse..pfft..emacs
[05:33] <PureEvilGeek> how do i go about in 7.04 formatting a partition?
[05:33] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: somebody was telling you to load the e1000 driver, did that work?
[05:33] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: use gparted
[05:33] <rafaelscj> how do I to install java runtime plugin for firefox in synaptcs?
[05:33] <dystopianray> stefano_: i find that hard to beleive
[05:33] <SlimeyPete> !java
[05:33] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:34] <dystopianray> rafaelscj: which version of java?
[05:34] <stefano_> fermatstheorem, i haven't tried emacs... i would have if i were used to the "make" files and basic file editing. Since i look for IDE, EasyEclipse seams to be the "best" imho.
[05:34] <ubuntu_begineer> i have to use tht command to load drivers ?
[05:34] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: did you try it?
[05:34] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: run ifconfig -a
[05:34] <rafaelscj> dystopianray, "non-free"
[05:34] <dystopianray> rafaelscj: java 5 or java 6?
[05:34] <stefano_> dystopianray, hehehe, me too. i thought they were the same thing. You could just try it, if ya want to find out. It's only 120 MBs dl.
[05:34] <Stev> BMT: so? i see only one jdk folder in your home (guess that is jdk from sum site)
[05:34] <fermatstheorem> stefano_: emacs is powerful, albeit too powerful for beginners, it has a steep learning curve but once youve mastered it, you wouldn t want anythihng else
[05:34] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: if the modrobe didn't returned anything it somehow worked
[05:35] <BMT> Stev, yes that is jdk from sun sie
[05:35] <rafaelscj> dystopianray, I don't know, I want to open a url that uses java
[05:35] <dystopianray> stefano_: it's too big to download and I already have eclipse installed
[05:35] <ubuntu_begineer> both commands are not returning anything
[05:35] <BMT> Stev, site
[05:35] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: paste the outut of ifconfig -a in pastebin
[05:35] <ezeb1> not an inspiring problem i know, but have rented an ubuntu virtual machine to host a website, and want to create a non-root user that i can use from the outset how do i? adduser <username> isnt working, and neither strangely is the 'man' command... i think root is the only account there at the moment
[05:35] <fermatstheorem> rafaelscj: you need to downloead the jre and the plugin
[05:35] <Stev> BMT: so sun-java6-jdk does not isntall the jdk??
[05:35] <ubuntu_begineer> its not answering
[05:35] <dystopianray> rafaelscj: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[05:36] <ubuntu_begineer> > ifconfig -a
[05:36] <ubuntu_begineer> >
[05:36] <ubuntu_begineer> thts wht happing
[05:36] <BMT> Stev, yes it did ...look at usr/lib/jvm
[05:36] <stefano_> fermatstheorem, I am sure. I have seen some screen shots. It is that learning curve what i don't want. I moved from windows dev to linux dev. Nothing seemed to be cosie enough to accept a VC++ dever.
[05:36] <truiz> #channe
[05:36] <rafaelscj> dystopianray, I will do
[05:36] <truiz> #channel
[05:36] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: ifconfig -a should at least show you the 'lo' (loopback) interface
[05:36] <HugCows> how can i change my screen resolution to 1280x800 when the screen resolution preferences only give me 1024x768 as the largest res?
[05:36] <dystopianray> Stev: it does
[05:36] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: if it shows nothing then something is very fishy in your setup
[05:36] <BMT> HugCows, what is your gfx card ?
[05:36] <stefano_> The point is i don't want to switch to windows. ^^, pisses me off every time i switch to it.
[05:37] <ubuntu_begineer> nope its not working may be this command works on newer version of ubuntu as im using 5.10 version is very outdated
[05:37] <dystopianray> HugCows: runt he following (select your video driver then all the resolutions you want to use): sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:37] <HugCows> BMT: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device
[05:37] <fermatstheorem> stefano_: i understand, spend some time regularly with emacs, you will start enjoying it, it is for devs by devs
[05:37] <Stev> BMT: mobility pack says that i have no jdk, i tryed with: ./netbeans_mobility-5_5_1-linux.bin -is:/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.00/, what's rong?
[05:37] <Jkessler> how do i list all of the currently mounted filesystems?
[05:37] <dystopianray> HugCows: select 'i810' as the video driver
[05:37] <fermatstheorem> stefano_: it is not easy, but worth the efffot
[05:37] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: run 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart'
[05:38] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: ifconfig -a does not show anything?
[05:38] <Dr_willis> Jkessler,  with the mount command.
[05:38] <stefano_> fermatstheorem, does it have Code Completion? Advanced as Visual Assist X? That would move me to it in a blink of an eye.
[05:38] <ubuntu_begineer> no nothing
[05:38] <Jkessler> just 'mount' ?
[05:38] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: and please do as i do and put my nick in front of you responses
[05:38] <ubuntu_begineer> k

[05:39] <ubuntu_begineer> erUSUL: thts also not responding
[05:39] <BMT> dystopianray, but for some reason they did not install at all, now that i am looking at more closely
[05:39] <MartinW> !gpg
[05:39] <Stev> dystopianray: java version "1.4.2"
[05:39] <ubotu> gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto and class #8 on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts
[05:39] <dystopianray> Stev: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[05:39] <ubuntu_begineer> erUSUL: may be this command works on newer version of ubuntu as im using 5.10 version which is very outdated
[05:40] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: o_O! nothing seems to work in your instalation... can you try installing a newer version of ubuntu?
[05:40] <dystopianray> Stev: select the 1.6 java you just installed
[05:40] <derrick-> does 'remove kubuntu-desktop' removes ALL KDE softwares? ;;
[05:40] <bapuni> does anyone help to install xmms2 in ubuntu 7.04?
[05:40] <Stev> wow
[05:40] <Stev> it works
[05:40] <Stev> !
[05:40] <Stev> dystopianray: tnx :)
[05:40] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: both ifconfig and the /etc/ script should work in every ubuntu version
[05:40] <erUSUL> !enter | Stev
[05:40] <ubotu> Stev: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:40] <BMT> dystopianray, thanks
[05:40] <ubuntu_begineer> erUSUL: i tried the live version of 7.04 but ethernet card didnt work
[05:40] <BMT> Stev, sorry !
[05:41] <Stev> err, yes i'm sorry :)
[05:41] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: we're trying to help you get it working
[05:41] <Dr_willis> derrick-,  no it does not.
[05:41] <rafaelscj> dystopianray, SlimeyPete: thanks
[05:41] <Stev> BMT: thanks for your time :) appreciated it ^^
[05:41] <dsl988> m" slimey
[05:41] <PureEvilGeek> dystopianray: is there a way to unmount a hard disk partition without restarting?
[05:41] <Dr_willis> PureEvilGeek,  'sudo umount /media/whatever'
[05:41] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: all the commands i gave you should work the same in the livecd. try them (modprobing the e1000 driver is the important part)
[05:41] <ubuntu_begineer> well, i appreciate tht
[05:42] <derrick-> my loading screen is kubuntu,,,my login window is gnome...i am using xubuntu...all messed up!  :))
[05:42] <BMT> HugCows, what driver are you using now ?
[05:42] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: if the driver loads you should have a interface to configure in System>Admin>Network
[05:42] <rafaelscj> derrick, here too
[05:42] <fermatstheorem> derrick-: same here, xdm+kdm splash+gnome dkesotp
[05:42] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: yes, use 'umount'
[05:42] <nameless> someone can help me with ventrilo ?
[05:42] <derrick-> rafaelscj: hahaha...all i want is removing kubuntu loading screen...how?
[05:43] <dystopianray> derrick-: remove kubuntu-artwork-usplash
[05:43] <rafaelscj> derrick-, I want that too, but I don't know
[05:43] <BMT> can anyone give HugCows the url for fixing video resolution
[05:43] <derrick-> dystopianray:owhh ok ok,,,trying right now
[05:43] <PureEvilGeek> dystopianray Dr_willis thank you. i thought right clicking and unmounting would work but i guess it isn't perfect yet lol
[05:43] <ubuntu_begineer> its work not im pastebining it
[05:44] <dystopianray> HugCows: did you run: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg ?
[05:44] <ubuntu_begineer> may be i was doing something wrong
[05:44] <PureEvilGeek> now to decide if i want ext3 or fat32
[05:44] <Dr_willis> PureEvilGeek,  if its being accessed by some other programs it wont unmount.
[05:44] <slackern> You want to remove it or change it to the default Ubuntu one?
[05:44] <PureEvilGeek> Dr_willis: it should't have been. but who knows. sudo umount worked
[05:44] <fermatstheorem> stefano_: http://discuss.fogcreek.com/joelonsoftware/default.asp?cmd=show&ixPost=146002 - some frank disucssions on emacs
[05:44] <slackern> sorry last message was to derrick-
[05:44] <Dr_willis> PureEvilGeek,  just rember theres no N in 'umount' :)
[05:44] <rafaelscj> dystopianray, will apt-get remove kubuntu-artwork-usplash change to the ubuntu's one?
[05:45] <slackern> !usplash | derrick-
[05:45] <ubotu> derrick-: 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
[05:45] <dystopianray> rafaelscj: i'm not sure, but it will be rid of kubuntu's artwork
[05:45] <PureEvilGeek> oh you are confusing me;)
[05:45] <derrick-> ubotu:trying~
[05:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about trying~ - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:45] <craig1709> Hi - you're obviously busy, but I can wait  - Ubuntu 7.04 32bit on a Radeon 9200 SE - I have a 1280x800 resolution, the monitor reports it as being 1280x800, but it's being displayed in a horizontally squashed manner, almost square - and I can't seem to fix it
[05:45] <ubuntu_begineer> erUSUL: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37796/plain/
[05:45] <PureEvilGeek> Dr_willis: any chance if you know if there is a stable ext3 mounting tool for windows?
[05:45] <rafaelscj> slackern, I am want to change to default
[05:45] <ubuntu_begineer> erUSUL: thts ifconfig
[05:46] <fermatstheorem> craig1709: did you try running sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:46] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: stick to fat32 or ntfs if you're using windows
[05:46] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: there you go. Your ethernet card is eth0 just go to  System>Admin>Network and configure it
[05:46] <PureEvilGeek> dystopianray: i'm using ubuntu but i want the files to be accessable by windows if i ever have to dual boot or move them
[05:46] <SlimeyPete> PureEvilGeek: there is. www.fs-driver.org
[05:46] <craig1709> fermatstheorem: will try it now thanks
[05:46] <ubuntu_begineer> erUSUL: i did it but it didnt work
[05:46] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: I'd use ntfs
[05:47] <fermatstheorem> craig1709: run it from terminal
[05:47] <slackern> rafaelscj: if you do the thing that ubotu said then you will get a menu to choose between the Ubuntu/Kubuntu usplashes
[05:47] <SlimeyPete> dystopianray: why? the fs-driver stuff seems to work OK
[05:47] <nameless> none with ventrilo ?
[05:47] <ubuntu_begineer> erUSUL: i did put all the settings needed to connect like ip ,gateway but it didnt work
[05:47] <rafaelscj> slackern, thanks
[05:47] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: or fat32 if you don't need to use files larger than 4GB
[05:47] <dystopianray> SlimeyPete: I'd trust ntfs-3g a lot mroe than some random ext3 for windows driver
[05:48] <Jordan_U> combinio, If you are still there you can try firestarter, it has a feature specifically for this but I don't think that it works with wireless cards
[05:48] <PureEvilGeek> dystopianray: yeah thats the issue. the files could easily get over 4gb in some cases
[05:48] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: are you using a router?
[05:48] <ubuntu_begineer> erUSUL: nope
[05:48] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: how do you connect to internet?
[05:48] <PureEvilGeek> i've just been having problems using the ntfs-3g or i think i have. i'll know after the data is in a native partition
[05:48] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: did you pastebin the result of 'ifconfig -a' ?
[05:48] <SlimeyPete> dystopianray: *shrug* I trust both of them, but there's a longer history of writeable ext on Windows than writeable ntfs on Linux, so I'd trust fs-driver slightly more ;)
[05:48] <dsl988> anyone tried brasero?? what do you think?
[05:48] <fermatstheorem> ubuntu_begineer: acoustic coupler :-p
[05:49] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: yes i did http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37796/plain/
[05:49] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: eth0 is your ethernet card, it should work automatically through network-manager if your network has dhcp
[05:49] <ubuntu_begineer> erUSUL: well, is a Lan i just have to put settings and it work
[05:50] <sakogti> hey guys i am currently using Fedora 7.. i am trying to find an article that has the diff between fedora and ubuntu any reason i should switch?
[05:50] <ubuntu_begineer> can u tell me how to connect to this channel through windows ?
[05:50] <fermatstheorem> sakogti: ubuntu has better hardware support, but it needs to be online for donwloading packages
[05:51] <craig1709> fermatstheorem: it didn't break, but didn't fix it either
[05:51] <fermatstheorem> sakogti: ubuntu takes care ofa ll package dependecies, way cleaner implementation
[05:51] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: you need to get a windows irc client
[05:51] <sakogti> i guess it wouldnt hurt to run fedora on my desktop and ubuntu on my laptop
[05:51] <ubuntu_begineer> like MIRC ?
[05:51] <Hush_> hello Friends :) What is the SDL and How to install it??
[05:51] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: yes that'll do
[05:51] <fermatstheorem> craig1709: how screwed up is the display now
[05:51] <wizo> hey, i apt-get install kismet, where would the conf file be?
[05:51] <wizo> i cant find it
[05:51] <dystopianray> Hush_: you should already have it
[05:52] <dystopianray> wizo: /etc/kismet/*
[05:52] <fermatstheorem> sakogti: ubuntu leans on gnome
[05:52] <wizo> oh
[05:52] <erUSUL> ubuntu_begineer: you have to join some freenode server and then /join #ubuntu. In most irc clients that will be '/connect irc.freenode.net' (wait untill connected) and then /join #ubuntu
[05:52] <Hush_> error: *** SDL version 1.2.4 not found!
[05:52] <sakogti> i love gnome
[05:52] <wizo> thanks dystopianray!
[05:52] <slonbg> hi, I'm reading in the news section on ubuntu.com for something named JeOS. And I can not find anything more, no docs, no downloads. Any Idea where I can find this?
[05:52] <fermatstheorem> craig1709: garbled/lower ersolution?
[05:52] <MartinW> Simple Direct media Layer. It's a graphics library for games.
[05:52] <dystopianray> Hush_: dpkg -l | grep -i sdl
[05:53] <ubuntu_begineer> OK, i do one thing ill restart and try the newer version with those commands
[05:53] <stefano_> fermatstheorem, thanks for the link. I will look into these "emacs", i tried using vim before... complete disaster.
[05:53] <fermatstheorem> craig1709: is it a lcd/crt
[05:53] <lonran> i need i bittorent client. what do you use?
[05:53] <fermatstheorem> stefano_: i should warn you it aint easy at all
[05:53] <Hush_> i got same error :(
[05:53] <dystopianray> lonran: ktorrent or rtorrent
[05:53] <fermatstheorem> Stefano_: but it aint easy to fly an f16 either
[05:54] <dystopianray> lonran: ktorrent has utorrent compatible DHT/Peer-Exchange
[05:54] <ubuntu_begineer> erUSUL: sudo modprobe e1000 is the command to load the driver for ethernet card ?
[05:54] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: does ifconfig -a list anything?
[05:54] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: yes
[05:54] <fermatstheorem> craig1709: please msg me only in the channel, no priv msgs please
[05:54] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: does it list eth0?
[05:54] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: yes
[05:54] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: then your nic should already work
[05:54] <fermatstheorem> craig1709: horizontally squished... did you try other resolutinos?
[05:55] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: you should have a system tray applet that shows it as being connected
[05:55] <craig1709> fermatstheorem: sorry - all lower resolutions are fine
[05:55] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: they say ur not connected (tht two computers)
[05:55] <fermatstheorem> craig1709: at some resolutions the aspect ration gets messed up
[05:55] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: does your network have dhcp?
[05:56] <GreyGhost> !rar
[05:56] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[05:56] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: sorry i dont know wht tht mean ?
[05:56] <craig1709> fermatstheorem: okay, any fix?
[05:56] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: do you have a router on your network?
[05:56] <fermatstheorem> craig1709: play around with other resolutino values and choose the one which looks sane
[05:56] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: do you normally have to manually configure the network settings or does it 'just work'?
[05:56] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: no
[05:57] <GreyGhost> !info unrar-free
[05:57] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: i have to configure it
[05:57] <ubotu> unrar-free: Unarchiver for .rar files. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.0.1+cvs20060609-1 (feisty), package size 17 kB, installed size 80 kB
[05:57] <dystopianray> GreyGhost: unrar-free is near useless
[05:57] <GreyGhost> O_o ok
[05:57] <craig1709> fermatstheorem: 1280x768 it'll have to be, shame - thanks for your help
[05:57] <Hush_> CAN I REINSTALL SDL?? OR INSTALL NEWEST VERSION??
[05:57] <dystopianray> Hush_: you should already have it
[05:57] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: every time i installed windows i have to just put the settings in my windows and it works
[05:57] <GreyGhost> dystopianray , ok .. should u use unrar or rar package?
[05:57] <fermatstheorem> craig1709: ive tried that even in my lcd, it quite looks skewed
[05:58] <GreyGhost> Hush_ ,use apt-get ?
[05:58] <Hush_> YES
[05:58] <f3trio3d2x> #puppy
[05:58] <dystopianray> GreyGhost: unrar, alternatively use winrar in wine (it works great)
[05:58] <craig1709> fermatstheorem: I'll play around
[05:58] <SuperLag> Is there a way, with sed, to specify starting at the end of a line?
[05:58] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: ok, the system-tray applet should have an option for manually configuring the interface
[05:58] <GreyGhost> dystopianray ,ok tahnks
[05:58] <savetheWorld> SuperLag: "xyz$"
[05:59] <dystopianray> SuperLag: blah$
[05:59] <GreyGhost> Hush_ ,so it is not installing?
[05:59] <savetheWorld> SuperLag: that matches xyz at the end of the line
[05:59] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: yes i did choose static ip and put all the settings in it but it didnt work
[05:59] <SuperLag> I'm trying to remove a bunch of whitespace at the end of a line, but there are some spaces before the end, that are valid
[05:59] <Hush_> NO
[05:59] <Cas> Hi, Can somebody tell me how I can make a WEP encrypted wifi connection from the command line?
[05:59] <savetheWorld> SuperLag: what does 1 line of that look like?
[05:59] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: did you try to ping another machine on the lan?
[05:59] <ubuntu_begineer> dystopianray: no
[05:59] <dystopianray> ubuntu_begineer: try that
[05:59] <GreyGhost> Hush_: ,paste your commandline
[05:59] <Hush_>  Couldn't find package SDL

[06:01] <Hush_> sorry:(
[06:01] <pc1> hola
[06:02] <npnufn> what is the command to view all the connections, it is actually net but forgot the parameters.
[06:02] <Pici> HipotermiA: supertux is in the repos, you shouldnt have to compile it from source.
[06:02] <Jordan_U_> combinio, I can confirm that firestarter *does* work with wireless, I am using it right now to share my connection
[06:02] <savetheWorld> SuperLag: since you said whitespace, you put a tab and a sp[ace chare inside the brackets
[06:02] <Pici> npnufn: nstat ( -tanp are useful arguments)
[06:02] <dystopianray> SuperLag: can you use \s$ ?
[06:02] <savetheWorld> SuperLag: YOUR WELCOME
[06:02] <GreyGhost> Hush_: are you looking for the dev package?
[06:02] <npnufn> thanks pici; now I won't forget this.
[06:03] <SuperLag> savetheWorld: sweet!
[06:03] <SuperLag> savetheWorld: thank you
[06:03] <savetheWorld> :)
[06:03] <Hush_> yes
[06:04] <dystopianray> Pici: don't you mean netstat?
[06:04] <Pici> dystopianray: er, I did, I dont know why I typed nstat
[06:04] <GreyGhost> Hush_ then apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
[06:04] <dystopianray> npnufn: use netstat not nstat
[06:04] <Pici> npnufn: Are you still here? I meant netstat
[06:04] <GreyGhost> should work
[06:05] <npnufn> Pici; yes,l I remembered that command.
[06:05] <npnufn> any how thanks dystopianray :=)
[06:05] <npnufn> :-)
[06:05] <GreyGhost> Hush_ ,any luck
[06:05] <GreyGhost> ?
[06:06] <Hush_> thanks :)
[06:08] <rafaelscj> is the window manager the unique difference betwen k/ubuntu?
[06:08] <Pici> rafaelscj: Yes.
[06:09] <dystopianray> rafaelscj: it's a lot more than just a window manager
[06:09] <dystopianray> rafaelscj: kubuntu uses kde rather than gnome
[06:09] <ubunturos> however, surprisingly, kubuntu is able to detect and run my ADSL through USB, where Ubuntu (same version) doesn't :-/
[06:10] <rafaelscj> dystopianray, I know, but how about the "wizards" like network-manager... are the same?
[06:10] <dystopianray> rafaelscj: they both have network-manager, ubuntu has nm-applet, kubuntu has knetworkmanager
[06:11] <dystopianray> rafaelscj: if you prefer gnome use ubuntu, if you prefer kde use kubuntu
[06:11] <gessi74> please what the name of channel for italian ubuntu??thank you

[06:18] <BBTHATSME> how does this work Ive never used IRC before
[06:18] <ArmedKing> What package does Ubuntu Desktop-Effects need installed, because he refuses to turn on some way. Anyway i can check?
[06:18] <dystopianray> ArmedKing: what video card do you have?
[06:18] <muzik> BBTHATSME: if you have used msn, this is a giant msn convo, with in this room over 1200 people in it
[06:18] <Pici> !enter | BBTHATSME
[06:18] <ubotu> BBTHATSME: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:19] <JuJuBee> I wish to install an email server in my classroom.  I have a public (static) IP address.  Should I use sendmail, qmail, postfix, citadel etc ?  I want simple.  I really only need it for some php mail functions embedded in a website I want to use.
[06:19] <ArmedKing> I have an Nvidia GeForce 8600GT SLI-Connected up and running wioth the Nvidia Drivers
[06:20] <dystopianray> ArmedKing: which nvidia drivers? you need the very latest that aren't in the repos for your card
[06:20] <cox377> is the locate command installed by default?
[06:20] <dystopianray> JuJuBee: postfix is supposed to be quite good, sendmail is very complicated
[06:20] <dystopianray> cox377: yes
[06:20] <muzik> note on my issue, booting into 7.04 with the aim of dual screens: it boots in, atm its loading, but the mouse works, and i can see the desktops on both screens [cloned] 
[06:20] <jackc> USA people, does www.zymic.com resolve (should bring up password box)?
[06:21] <ArmedKing> dystopianray: I used the Nvidia drivers using there installer because anything else wont work because my card is not supported i Have Direct Rendering and glxgears gives me 13000Ffs
[06:21] <dystopianray> jackc: it works from australia if that helps
[06:21] <JuJuBee> I have read that sendmail is hard to configure.  If postfix is easy, then that's for me.  Any experience with it?
[06:21] <dystopianray> ArmedKing: ok, you need to make an addition to your xorg.conf
[06:21] <cox377> dystopianray: when i tyre it in i get this
[06:21] <USMarine> jackc no
[06:21] <cox377> dystopianray: locate: /var/cache/locate/locatedb: No such file or directory
[06:21] <cox377> dystopianray: tyre*
[06:21] <cox377> type*
[06:21] <teratoma_> so when I download the official ubuntu feisty ISO, will it have all the recent updates, or will i have to run apt-get update and download all the recent updates ?
[06:21] <dystopianray> cox377: try sudo updatedb
[06:22] <BBTHATSME> Well I cannot access any package managers including apt, synaptic, GDeb, etc, all this happaned after I tried installing a .deb for pidgin plugins
[06:22] <ArmedKing> dystopianray: What addition?
[06:22] <dystopianray> teratoma_: you have to update and download
[06:22] <bastid_raZor> teratoma_: you'll have to update it after the install
[06:22] <teratoma_> is gutsy coming out really soon?  would it be worth it just to run that ?
[06:22] <dystopianray> ArmedKing: you need to add this to the device section of your xorg.conf: Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals"
[06:22] <fiyawerx> hey guys, what program do you use to get a stream from your tv card?
[06:22] <cox377> does anyone know if apache2 should create a cgi-bin folder by default?
[06:22] <bastid_raZor> teratoma_: october some time..
[06:23] <dystopianray> teratoma_: it'll be released at the end of october, so it won't be out for over a month
[06:23] <fiyawerx> !tv
[06:23] <ubotu> http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out
[06:23] <dystopianray> fiyawerx: is it a digital tv stream?
[06:23] <USMarine> cox377 it does
[06:24] <dystopianray> cox377: USMarine: it doesn't, but you can trivially create it
[06:24] <fiyawerx> dystopianray: not sure, don't think so tho, a friend is asking me what program he can use
[06:24] <cox377> USMarine: any ideas why it isn't under my var/www/cgi-bin
[06:24] <dystopianray> fiyawerx: if it's digital I recommend kaffeine
[06:24] <USMarine> i think it does
[06:24] <DigeratiX> nm solved
[06:24] <cox377> dystopianray: just by mkdir cgi-bin?
[06:24] <dystopianray> cox377: yes
[06:24] <USMarine> well just install cgiirc and it will create :P
[06:24] <cmak> what is the "chkconfig" on ubuntu?
[06:26] <fiyawerx> dystopianray: thanks, told'em to try that
[06:28] <dystopianray> cox377: apache will alias /cgi-bin to /usr/lib/cgi-bin by default
[06:28] <ArmedKing> dystopianray: K m8 tried that now, Still doesnt work. When i run desktop-eefects from terminal it simply says nvidia hardware not available, Here the output http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37802/
[06:28] <PureEvilGeek> how do i change the owner of a file/ folder?
[06:28] <dystopianray> ArmedKing: did you restart X?
[06:28] <ArmedKing> dystopianray: Yes i did
[06:28] <dystopianray> ArmedKing: I'm not sure how to solve the problem
[06:28] <PureEvilGeek> i'm an administrator account and it says i can't change the permissions:-/
[06:29] <donpedro69> ahoi
[06:29] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: you need to use sudo
[06:29] <ArmedKing> dystopianray: K m8 il keep digging tru the mess i created now haha, Tnx for the help anyways
[06:29] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: sudo chown
[06:29] <PureEvilGeek> dystopianray: no way with the gui?
[06:29] <genii> PureEvilGeek: sudo chown user:group /the/file
[06:29] <muzik> IP Location: 	 Turkey Turkey Ankara Tt-dns-block
[06:29] <muzik> IP Address: 	195.175.37.70 [Whois]  [Reverse-Ip]  [Ping]  [DNS Lookup]  [Traceroute] 
[06:29] <muzik> Blacklist Status: 	Currently Listed (history)
[06:29] <muzik> ooops
[06:29] <muzik> sorry!
[06:29] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: not that I know of, you don't usually run gui programs as root
[06:30] <muzik> PureEvilGeek: try sudo nautilus ,then rightclick the file, if ytou mean that
[06:30] <PureEvilGeek> dystopianray: bla lol i want to do everything through the gui and everything for the last day has had to be done through the command prompt
[06:31] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: command prompt is faster easier and more secure
[06:31] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: only windows admins use a gui
[06:31] <muzik> lol.
[06:31] <PureEvilGeek> dystopianray: imo for me it is certainly not easier or faster. since i might need to change something once in a great while. having to ask how to do it slows things down
[06:32] <PureEvilGeek> this is a desktop computer!
[06:32] <teratoma_> PureEvilGeek: gui is fine, command line is fine... but changing permissions on a folder in unix is just one of those things you should do with command line
[06:32] <muzik> PureEvilGeek: in the long run, command prompt is much more ..customisable, but try suo nautilus and that gives you a admin version of thefile manager
[06:32] <dystopianray> PureEvilGeek: you only need to remember how to use chown, it is very simple
[06:32] <genii> muzik: perhaps gksudo nautilus ?
[06:33] <muzik> somthing like that :D
[06:33] <muzik> i jsut remember having to use it back when i needed the gui
[06:33] <PureEvilGeek> thanks muzik
[06:33] <muzik> :)
[06:33] <CarlFK> how do I cut/paste the text from an Alert dialog?
[06:33] <PureEvilGeek> so you guys don't believe ubuntu is suppose to be crafted to "replace windows desktop OSs" i guess
[06:34] <Shin_Gouki> hello! i want to listen to WEBRADIO only windowsmedia palyer and real are offered, what should i do?
[06:34] <CarlFK> hmm, something did it.  may have been ^c...
[06:34] <muzik> PureEvilGeek: it can, but in many ways its better, aslong as you know how a computer works, not how you tell it to work
[06:35] <PureEvilGeek> 'as long as you know how a computer works' that expression right there kills the idea of replaceing windows desktop OSes
[06:35] <PureEvilGeek> replacing doesn't mean .01% market share:)
[06:36] <muzik> if you have never used windows, linux is fine :D, and thats what i stand by, if you can learn linux, you can learn anything
[06:36] <muzik> should i be worried if i had to isntall it in safe graphics mode [ubuntu 7.04] 
[06:37] <PureEvilGeek> muzik: na i had to do the same with mine once. worked fine after words. biggiest issue is not updating your video drivers while on the live cd
[06:38] <muzik> okay
[06:38] <muzik> well as its a command line i hope i can get into that, and update from there
[06:38] <PureEvilGeek> muzik: i want a new world:) one where a linux distro is a compeditor to windows desktops. and zealots can still have there freaky distros that are in the dark ages:) but thats my world:(
[06:38] <muzik> thats a world that all proper linux users want XD
[06:38] <Shin_Gouki> helllo i need help with WEBraido, anyone?
[06:38] <PureEvilGeek> don't update your video drivers while on the live cd is your going to install from that same instance of live cd
[06:39] <scratchy> Hi guys *meows*
[06:39] <muzik> my friend installed ubuntu because she 'liked the desktop' she didnt realse it would wipe her XP, now she hates linux, and i cant change her mind lol
[06:39] <muzik> o.O hi scratchy
[06:39] <scratchy> muzik,
[06:39] <scratchy> people like that dont deserve linux
[06:39] <muzik> O.O
[06:39] <scratchy> hahaha give her XP
[06:39] <muzik> Yeppp
[06:39] <scratchy> or even better GIVE HER A MAC
[06:39] <PureEvilGeek> muzik: outch
[06:39] <muzik> she on 98 now :D
[06:39] <muzik> LOL macs ftl
[06:40] <PureEvilGeek> meh xp would have done the same thing if she had another OS. and saying people "don't deserve linux" is way to elitest for me
[06:40] <PureEvilGeek> its an operation system, a tool nothing more nothing less
[06:40] <cyberphaz> well not for everyone
[06:40] <scratchy> I just explained to yet another 80 year old guy, How to set up wireless on a Mac....I RULE !
[06:40] <scratchy> took me only 12 minutes ...
[06:40] <PureEvilGeek> of course if your a zealot then its gnu/linux and not linux when refering to the OS:)
[06:40] <muzik> its when you want to replace windows mobile 5 with linux, you know that your hooked :D
[06:40] <cyberphaz> for some people linux is their dreams, life and air :P
[06:40] <ArmedKing> muzik: Tell her the wipe is the best thing that ever happend to her. Because now she doesnt have to worrie about getting enoyed the hell out of her when she buys a new pc and gets vista on it. :P:P:P
[06:41] <muzik> i tried, she hit me
[06:41] <Secher> hey guys.. i just updated my gutsy dist, but now my terminal is "gone".. The window is empty when i open it.. Anyone know how to fix this?
[06:41] <ArmedKing> muzik: Take one for the team beib :p
[06:41] <scratchy> So if they dont know how to do it, say the following to your customer .." Have you ever heard of an Apple Macintosh "
[06:41] <muzik> ;] 
[06:41] <dystopianray> Secher: #ubuntu+1
[06:41] <erUSUL> !gutsy | Secher
[06:41] <ubotu> Secher: 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
[06:41] <Secher> i know..
[06:42] <genii> Shin_Gouki: I normally load up the ones for windows mediaplayer directly by adding the URL stream to amarok
[06:42] <Secher> and today there was an update, which i downloaded
[06:42] <PureEvilGeek> 7.10 should be fun when it comes out. safe modes and all. much much closer to a windows replacement
[06:42] <scratchy> I heard that they did alot on Xinerama intergration in he 7.10 version
[06:42] <Secher> and it screwed up my terminal..
[06:42] <dystopianray> Secher: gutsy support only in #ubuntu+1
 ok thx for info, i try that.... im knda VERy new to amarok
[06:42] <ArmedKing> Well i hope the new version is kind to me as in "Supporting my Video Card"
[06:42] <Secher> im using the alpha version because nothing else will run on my laptop
[06:42] <muzik> to be fair, if linux replaces windows i will be sad, you get a certain..feel of ..elitness or like..more understanding using linux
[06:42] <dgjones> Secher, support for gutsy is in #ubuntu+1, they're the ones testing it and most likely to be able to help you
[06:43] <genii> Shin_Gouki: If you give me the site you are trying to see I'll try to find the exact URL you may need
[06:43] <dystopianray> Secher: please go to #ubuntu+1 this is not the gutsy support channel
[06:43] <Secher> oh thanks
[06:43] <PureEvilGeek> muzik: its strange. i hear that all the time from people. honest people at least.
[06:43] <Secher> didnt know of that chan
[06:43] <harmattan> Hey people. When you say 'supporting my video card', do you mean in 3D?
[06:43] <scratchy> Ha, all windows needs is another HUGE slip like Vista
[06:43] <PureEvilGeek> muzik: at least you are willing to admit that is a reason you don't want it to happen:)
[06:43] <dystopianray> harmattan: what video card do you have?
[06:43] <ArmedKing> Yes thats what i mean
[06:43] <PureEvilGeek> harmattan: they mean stuff showing up on the screen
[06:43] <ArmedKing> I one of the few who has an unsuported nvidia card
[06:44] <scratchy> harmattan: lspci
[06:44] <Shin_Gouki> genii, http://www1.n-joy.de/pages_special/0,,SPM7388_CONnjoy_TYPreal_LOCint,00.html this one
[06:44] <muzik> lol PureEvilGeek, well it is jsut that, i want it to, but at the same time, we loose the err..expertise we get over end users, and then we have to get anoher server for just support.
[06:44] <genii> Shin_Gouki: OK, give me a minute then
[06:44] <PureEvilGeek> muzik: i'm waiting for virtual applications to take over making what OS you run not matter nearly as much. go to the store, pick up your favorate X program, install it. won't matter if you are running ubuntu 9.02 or windows vista sp10
[06:44] <harmattan> Thanks. I wasn't sure if the problem was with support in general or only with the proprietary driver for doin 3D. I suppose VESA works always.
[06:44] <SuperLag> savetheWorld: you still around?
[06:44] <astra-1> Has anyone had any luck with setting up prism 2.5 wavelan chipset in kubuntu 7.04?
[06:45] <astra-1> Any help configuring knetwork with the prism 2.5 or any utilities or commands would be helpful
[06:45] <PureEvilGeek> I like vista. a little ram hungry but there is nothing else out there that compares to its end user capabilities
[06:45] <szeraax> can anyone here help me out? When i try to 'make' in a folder, all the contents get deleted. i read somewhere to do 'make V=1' and i get this http://pastebin.com/m7e37afba any help? I thank you for your time
[06:45] <muzik> okay, i am fully booted into Ubunut7.04, with 2 screens, 1 cloning the other, how can i change that to a dualscreeen desktop
[06:45] <ikma> i haven't been able to start X without failsafe for a few weeks now. what steps should i take to resolve the problem?
[06:46] <SuperLag> PureEvilGeek: you're stoned.
[06:46] <PureEvilGeek> for instance and admin can right click go to properties and change permissions after a few prompts:)
[06:46] <muzik> LOL
[06:46] <muzik> thanks for that analysis SuperLag
[06:46] <PureEvilGeek> superdachs: no. i'm just a user who doesn't have an agenda against one OS or another and am realistic
[06:46] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: Vista is the best thing that ever happend to Linux ;-)
[06:46] <muzik> LOL
[06:46] <PureEvilGeek> ha
[06:46] <muzik> i like that 1
[06:47] <PureEvilGeek> ArmedKing: ok how so? more users using ubuntu? can't be elite then if every one uses it;)
[06:47] <SuperLag> PureEvilGeek: Vista is a fucking joke.
[06:47] <muzik> anyone of you know Chris Pirlillo? he used to work for micrsoft, google Chris, he is the first result, even he uninstalled Vista.
[06:47] <stdin> !language | SuperLag
[06:47] <ubotu> SuperLag: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:47] <SuperLag> PureEvilGeek: it wasn't ready. XP still rules the roost.
[06:47] <npnufn> is there any possibility to view the internal functions of firefox like I can see the xul with chrome://
[06:47] <PureEvilGeek> SuperLag: far from it, but i don't want to get into a conversation with some one who wants nothing more then to fight
[06:47] <ArmedKing> I have to be Honnest tho, I cant go without Vista because i play World of Warcraft and my Zboard is not sopported in Linux, Compromise is XP but that doesnt work with my 4 Cores so i kindof pushed in using it
[06:48] <kitche> npnufn: about:config but what do you mean internal functions?
[06:48] <harmattan> dystopianray: my video cards are very old S3 ones and an integrated VIA
[06:48] <SuperLag> PureEvilGeek: no fighting here.
[06:48] <Pici> !offtopic
[06:48] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:48] <cox377> does anyone know the command off the top of there head to make the access of a folder to anyone?
[06:48] <dystopianray> harmattan: don't expect any 3d with those cards
[06:48] <dystopianray> cox377: what sort of access? read, write, execute?
[06:48] <PureEvilGeek> ArmedKing: i think sp1 will really help vista out with the few "bugs" most of us notice. a lot of improvements are going into the GUI from what i hear
[06:48] <muzik> 0777 isnt it?
[06:48] <harmattan> Yeah, I know. Just curious about 21st century hardware  :-D
[06:48] <npnufn> I would like to see the function internalopen code which is invoked on opening a url.
[06:48] <SuperLag> cox377: chmod -R 777 foldername/ <-- that will recurse and make all contents r/w
[06:49] <muzik> ftp ftw
[06:49] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: Few Bugs man i can run more games in Linux Using wine then i can in Vista LOL
[06:49] <tester123> hi can i vsync opengl video play for playing movies with the opengl video driver in mplayer and such...
[06:49] <muzik> ditto ArmedKing
[06:49] <tester123> ?
[06:49] <PureEvilGeek> i want to be able to easily play wow on linux. blizzard should build it into a virtual app and package it, should only be 20gb when done:)
[06:49] <bezibaerchen> my vista works better than my xp :-)
[06:49] <tester123> yea right bezi
[06:49] <tester123> haha
[06:49] <tester123> thats funny
[06:49] <muzik> only when its turned off
[06:49] <tester123> lol
[06:49] <SuperLag> haha
[06:49] <JonaTh> lol
[06:50] <Shin_Gouki> genii, its kinda hard isn't it?
[06:50] <dystopianray> tester123: what video card do you have?
[06:50] <PureEvilGeek> oh i forgot what i was going to do with this fbsd install now lol
[06:50] <tester123> ati x850
[06:50] <cox377> SuperLag: cheers superlag
[06:50] <muzik> ..lol
[06:50] <harmattan> Anyway I only like free modules. I have no intention of running anything with proprietary stuff (much less, W$ bad-vista)
[06:50] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: Agree i think WoW can easaly be build for Linux, Did you know you can get banned for running wow with wine because you run 3d party app haha
[06:50] <tester123> my xvideo looks really low res when playing movies. like its half the quality compaired to when i select opengl in mplayer.
[06:51] <dystopianray> tester123: if your'e using fglrx it's control panel might have a vsync option
[06:51] <tester123> but opengl is not vsync.
[06:51] <npnufn> kitche; do you know how to hide an extension like adblock from it's visibility.
[06:51] <PureEvilGeek> ArmedKing: its because the "third party testing program" *don't know what else to call it* can't run in wine correctly i think
[06:51] <tester123> i tried that but it looked like it was for 3d stuff
[06:51] <cox377> SuperLag: i ge this msg
[06:51] <kitche> npnufn: adblock plus I know has a show visiblilty option in it's options not so sure about adblock though
[06:51] <cox377> SuperLag: -bash: cd: chmod: No such file or directory
[06:51] <PureEvilGeek> but i know a few people that know how to get around it
[06:52] <muzik> o.o
[06:52] <npnufn> kitche; does adblock plus provide any additional functionality compared to adblock, if so what are they?
[06:52] <muzik> chmod --help
[06:52] <genii> Shin_Gouki: Because that web site is trying to play within the page with  an embedded Windows media player or Realaudio player.
[06:52] <muzik> do that
[06:52] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: Well wow runs nice with wine i say nice as in Not great, I get about 20 fps in Linux but get 60fps in Windows
[06:52] <kitche> npnufn: subscriptions from what I can see
[06:52] <tester123> actually i think the entire desktop should be vsyncable.  all these tairing in moving windows is has no reason for it.
[06:53] <Shin_Gouki> genii, u can choose external palyer but still i get a redirect url which kinda doesnt work for me :/
[06:53] <npnufn> kitche; thanks for the support.
[06:53] <rothchild> Hi I'm trying to upgrade gutsy but I keep getting a segmentation fault that seems to be crashing apt or dpkg, it's stuck with the application EOG, can anyone help get it sorted?
[06:53] <kitche> !gutsy | rothchild
[06:53] <ubotu> rothchild: 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
[06:53] <PureEvilGeek> ArmedKing: lol youa re making me want my new ram for my main system (vista). so i can play
[06:54] <npnufn> kitche; I need some info about adblock; does it provide blocking service based on the content mime type.
[06:54] <rothchild> sure, sorry guys! /coat
[06:54] <genii> Shin_Gouki: By "external player" there they mean play in a separate browser window, but still in that one they are trying to embed specifically the windows media player or RealAudio player into it
[06:54] <npnufn> or is there any other extension provides this service.
[06:54] <ArmedKing> PureEvilGeek: How mutch ram you got now?
[06:54] <dystopianray> tester123: if you use compiz/beryl and your driver supports it you can have a whole desktop vsync
[06:54] <muzik> cox377: any luck?
, i dont get it so its really impossible to play on linux?!
[06:54] <cox377> muzik: yeh i think so mate, i had cd instead of just sudo chmod
[06:54] <muzik> ah okay
[06:54] <juanhuevos> j.d_rodriguez@hotmail.com
[06:55] <muzik> ...
[06:55] <PureEvilGeek> ArmedKing: 1gb with 69% used (it is not just vista by itself) i'm putting in another 2gb
[06:55] <muzik> !address
[06:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about address - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:55] <muzik> or not.
[06:55] <cox377> muzik: however, i'm trying to access the cgi-bin folder from my webbrowser and it's still telling me access denied

[06:57] <digitalspaghetti> Hi there, bit of an odd question - Does anyone know an application on Ubuntu that lets you create Enhanced CD's (i.e Audio tracks + MPEG 1 videos), I think it's called "Blue Book"
[06:57] <dystopianray> tester123: detecting 3d applications is likely non-trivial
[06:57] <muzik> cox377: either PM me the link or say in here so i can have a look, i have some proxies i ahve installed i think 1 was cgi
[06:57] <antodona> wello
[06:57] <springs> i have question about possibly installing ubuntu on the windows vista 'data' drive and then making it active....has anyone done this before...please pm
[06:58] <genii> Shin_Gouki: Go into a command prompt in the same directory the .bin file is. Then do: sudo chmod +x filename.bin          to make it executable. Then run it by: gksudo filename.bin   (gksudo because it has a graphical installer)
[06:58] <tester123> if you cant play 3d games. it makes the pc handicap
[06:58] <tester123> or would they work ok side by side.. on a fast pc?

[07:03] <Shapeshifter> I have a question. I wrote a small script that converts all images in a folder to a particular size and format, and puts them into another folder. I would now like to add a dialog at the beginning asking if it should proceed. I did this:
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> zenity --question --title="File conversion" --text "Begin?"; echo $?
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> if [ $? != 0 ]  ; then
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> cd /home/_myusername_/Images/DSC/Batch_1st
[07:03] <cox377> muzik: is it on the repos?
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> for img in `ls *.jpg`
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> do
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> The problem is: The dialog shows up correctly but it doesn't matter what I click, it always goes on ignoring the 1/0 value. Why?
[07:03] <muzik> cox377: i'll get you a link, as its online, you drag and drop it into your webfolder, extract and its working
[07:03] <Shapeshifter> after "do" it goes on of course

[07:04] <ffighter> where are the fonts kept in ubuntu ?
[07:05] <dystopianray> ffighter: /usr/share/fonts/
[07:05] <genii> Shin_Gouki: No, gksudo is already on your computer (if you are running ubuntu and not kubuntu or xubuntu)
[07:05] <rowdy> i am only seeing boxes for text when i run the live cd
[07:05] <luisa> is kubuntu the same as ubuntu (works the same way, I mean) but the only diference is that it uses KDE?
[07:05] <tester123> sandy can you connect to another page when using an ip instead of an url
[07:05] <dystopianray> luisa: that's right
[07:05] <muzik> cox377: http://www.phproxy.org/poxy-0.4.zip
[07:05] <luisa> thanks dystoianray

[07:06] <muzik> cox377: extract that into your web directory, and it should work
[07:06] <genii> bottiger: I have one like that also. i run the apt-get upgrade around once a week or so, seems adequate.
[07:06] <cox377> muzik: nice one  - shall let u know how i get on

[07:06] <Shin_Gouki> do i need path setup or such?!
[07:06] <rowdy> and after i installed using safe graphics mode...i installed successfully...but after i reboot the text doesnt appear on the login screen
[07:06] <bottiger> genii: and you're not worried that one day something will break - and you have no idea why :)
[07:06] <Shin_Gouki> genii do i need path setup or such?!
[07:06] <genii> Shin_Gouki: Ah, perhaps try:  gksudo ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
[07:06] <rowdy> i am only seeing boxes for text when i run the live cd
[07:06] <rowdy> and after i installed using safe graphics mode...i installed successfully...but after i reboot the text doesnt appear on the login screen
[07:06] <Dr_willis> Shapeshifter,  im not sure that your if []  thing is correct. Id double check the advanced bash scripting guide on conditionals.
[07:06] <Dr_willis> Shapeshifter,  plus theres no end to your if stuff either.
[07:07] <ffighter> I assume I don't need to copy these fonts to wine's windows/fonts... symlinks would do, or not?
[07:07] <Shin_Gouki> genii that works!
[07:07] <genii> bottiger: I have it set not to replace my conf files with dist conf files, so it's unlikely :)

[07:12] <stefg> sandy : type /j #ubuntu+1 in your irc client. you are going to be ignored in here, since gutsy is alpha, unstable and support is in #ubuntu+1

[07:20] <unimatrix9> smutje : as many as you like
[07:20] <ffighter> how could I do that?
[07:20] <stefg> kazim59: try a fresh profile and do not install every single ber-kewl extension you stumble upon
[07:20] <ffighter> Boot up with Partition Magic or something?
[07:20] <Dr_willis> ffighter,  live cd and gparted would be how ive done it in the past
[07:20] <Dr_willis> ffighter,  #*@* partition magic. :)
[07:20] <Shapeshifter> Hi, can anyone tell me why this script always proceeds instead of exiting if the returned value is 1? http://pastebin.com/m7f0dbf68 The convert part works great, but I can't influence if it's happening or not.
[07:21] <ffighter> Dr_willis, The ubuntu live cd?
[07:21] <unimatrix9> hirens bootcd ...
[07:21] <kazim59> stefg: I've two extensions that I must use.. none others are installed... Web Developer's toolbar & firebug....
[07:21] <Kagee> ffighter: or you could install gparted in ubuntu
[07:21] <Dr_willis> theres a gparted-livecd out thats a 'must have' for your toolbox. ubuntu's live cd also has gparted.
[07:21] <kazim59> stefg: I feel its flash that hangs it
[07:21] <Dr_willis> The gpartedlivecd boots a bit faster and has some other system fix tools also.
[07:21] <garette> hello all i wanted to install something and my repos are down.. i tried to put an alternate mirror but that didn't help, every thing is ultimately directed to main mirror and the main mirror is down, how on earth could i install?? its immediate
[07:21] <Hex_101> Dr_willis too right, its on one of those wallet sized discs in my wallet :D
[07:21] <unimatrix9> http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[07:21] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  Bingo.
[07:21] <genii> Shin_Gouki: np
[07:21] <unimatrix9> there you go
[07:21] <Hex_101> Dr_willis: although the college told me off :/
[07:22] <Dr_willis> Theres also a system-rescue live cd thats worth grabbing.. and some supergrub livecd :)
[07:22] <unimatrix9> alway's backup before making partitions
[07:22] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  Claim its your freddom of speech! :)
[07:22] <ffighter> Ok, thank you
[07:22] <stefg> kazim59: ok, that's reasonable... but try a fresh profile nonetheless.

[07:22] <Hex_101> lol.
[07:23] <Hex_101> Dr_willis: im muzik, remember the problem i was having, making my ubuntu go to twinview?
[07:23] <unimatrix9> sooth : restart alsa?
[07:23] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  yea. :)
[07:23] <arang2> anyone alive here? could someone tell me how to acess a windows network using thunar or from Xubuntu?
[07:23] <garette> Dr_willis,  hello all i wanted to install something and my repos are down.. i tried to put an alternate mirror but that didn't help, every thing is ultimately directed to main mirror and the main mirror is down, how on earth could i install?? its immediate
[07:23] <Dr_willis> arang2,  use some of the samba/smb/browser tools out.
[07:23] <Dr_willis> arang2,  no idea what thundar has. but xfce had a xfsamba tool at one time
[07:23] <arang2> Dr_willis: do u recommend somethin?
[07:23] <Hex_101> Dr_willis: well i got it all updated and stuff, and i ran the nvidia-settings, and set the dualscreen up, but when i enable it, the top half of both screens is missing, and the bottom half is random blocks of the gui
[07:24] <Dr_willis> arang2,  i use the fuse-smb stuff now  a days
[07:24] <stefg> arang2: #xubuntu .... i use fusesmb to mount my samba shares, so thunar sees it as an ordianry dir
[07:24] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  heh sounds like some odd driver/memory/issue.
[07:24] <Shapeshifter> Hex_101: is the mouse cursor still visible if you hover over the missing parts?
[07:24] <Hex_101> ...thats just pointless it works now
[07:24] <Hex_101> it wasnt when i tried it no
[07:24] <arang2> Dr_willis : thanks
[07:24] <genii> bottiger: It occurs to me to look up apt.conf (I think it has a manpage). There is also some example with all settings, i am pretty sure now that is how i set specifically the apt-get settings.
[07:25] <Hex_101> thanks for your help Dr_willis, Shapeshifter & dystopianray
[07:25] <Leon_home> in the terminal how can i know how much free space left on my hdd ?
[07:25] <luisa> fd -h
[07:25] <luisa> oops
[07:25] <luisa> df -h
[07:25] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  it started working?
[07:25] <dystopianray> Leon_home: df -h
[07:25] <Shapeshifter> Hex_101: had the same proble, but I don't know how I solved it. I guess I just took a very old xorg.conf and reverted all the nvidia-config settings to defualt, and the used it to configure
[07:25] <stefg> arang2: http://swik.net/Xubuntu+samba
[07:25] <Hex_101> its working, just going to test it on a reeboot
[07:25] <Dr_willis> df -h -x tmpfs -x devpts -x usbfs
[07:25] <dystopianray> Leon_home: if you give it a path it'll tell you the free space on the aprtition mounted at the path
[07:25] <Dr_willis> is my ULTIMATE 'show disk space' alioas :)
[07:26] <Dr_willis> alias ShowDisk='df -h -x tmpfs -x devpts -x usbfs'
[07:26] <Shapeshifter> Can anyone tell me why this script always proceeds instead of exiting if the returned value is 1? http://pastebin.com/m7f0dbf68 The convert part works great, but I can't influence if it's happening or not.
[07:26] <Hex_101> i rly do like the window-wobble thingy hehe.
[07:26] <kazim59> stefg: easier solution--- pkill firefox
[07:26] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  you are a sick puppy.
[07:26] <Hex_101> =}
[07:27] <sooth> Is there a way to manually re-initialize my soundcard after a suspend?
[07:27] <savetheWorld> SuperLag: yo?
[07:27] <erUSUL> sooth: maybe a rmmod of the sound modules and modprobing them again works
[07:27] <arang2> stefg: thanks

[07:28] <zzxc> I need to do an advanced installation of Ubuntu on a server I don't have physical access to.  Would copying the squashfs filesystem from the live CD to a partition on the hard drive, and using chroot to test the environment, be sufficient for installation?
[07:28] <zzxc> (is there an FAQ for doing this?  I've done it with other non-Debian distributions)

[07:29] <stefg> zzxc: that's a risky project...
[07:29] <Dr_willis> sounds scary to me.
[07:30] <Hex_101> Dr_willis: i restarted, and i only got 1 screen again, anyway i can get it to save so that it does 2 screens?
[07:30] <SuperLag> savetheWorld: more sed-fu? :) how would I take any "@" and make it have only one space on either side of it? (remove more whitespace). I tried the TAB char, like you said... but my results were... shall I say abnormal? :)

[07:32] <rafaelscj> hello, where is the firefox's cache folder?
[07:33] <sooth> dystopianray: It doesn't occur after every suspend (relatively rarely actually). Anyway, I'm post-resume right now. Trying to fix the problem.
[07:33] <erUSUL> sooth: :(
[07:33] <dystopianray> savetheWorld: why not just: sed -e 's/[\s] *@[\s] */ @ /g' ?
[07:33] <rowdy> i am only seeing boxes for text when i run the live cd

[07:34] <savetheWorld> dystopianray: that'll do.  but for people with less experience I like to do single steps so that what happens is clear.
[07:35] <savetheWorld> interstingly in testsing the \s didn't work, so   sed -e 's/[[:space:] ] *@[[:space:] ] */@/g' -e 's/@/ @ /'
[07:35] <rziegler> rpm -qf /to/what/pkg/does/this/file/belong ....  what is the apt equiviletn?  I am brand new to Ubunto after a decade on rpm based distro
[07:35] <rowdy> i am only seeing boxes for text when i run the live cd
[07:35] <savetheWorld> or it can be merged into one step like dystopianray does.
[07:35] <dystopianray> savetheWorld: the \ probably needs to be escaped: \\s
 could you tell me what you would do on feisty and let me see if it will apply?
[07:36] <savetheWorld> dystopianray: there is NO escape!  :-)
[07:36] <sooth> rziegler: dpkg -S

[07:38] <erUSUL> kalchas: it seems that gdm *crashed* so maybe it's just buggy software and there is nothing you can do. the gdm configuration is in /etc/gdm/ but i take that you didn't messed there...
[07:38] <Hex_101> anyone still alive?
[07:38] <rafaelscj> sooth, thank you
[07:38] <savetheWorld> dystopianray: I jus ttold you!  there is NO escape!  :        You caused a netsplit!

[07:39] <kalchas> what if purged ubuntu-desktop from a terminal login and then re-installed it? what problems might that cause?
[07:40] <rafaelscj> sooth, doesn't firefox copy any file there? so there would be too many files
[07:40] <kalchas> or what if I purged just the package that handles gdm login and reinstalled?
[07:40] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  check your old xorg.conf and new. and see what keymap/board settings it was using befor and change them back i guess. ;)
[07:41] <Hex_101> i cant get into terminal
[07:41] <Hex_101> CtrlAltF1 gives me nothing

[07:42] <sooth> rafaelscj: Firefox stores files there. I have almost 200 files there at the moment. What are you looking for?
[07:42] <rataplan> how can i continue the file ?
[07:42] <Dr_willis> Hex_101,  you dident manually back it up eh? :) i bet you will in the future. it should of made a dated backup copy in /etc/X11 somewhere
[07:42] <Hex_101> kk back to terminal boot it is

[07:50] <Dr_willis> ffighter,  i doubt it.  twinview sort of makes the system think it has one HUGE monitor.
[07:50] <Henrik1> is there another (ubuntu offical) way to do that ?
[07:50] <visof_> can i make the menus  transparent in ubuntu , if ya how?
[07:50] <stdin> kidbuntu: you can just (re)move "/var/lib/dpkg/available" and run "sudo apt-get update"
[07:50] <ffighter> Dr_willis, So, what would be the other way?
[07:50] <Dr_willis> ffighter,  at least ive never seen it done. :) some window managers might be able to do it.
[07:50] <LjL> Henrik1: i don't think there's any "official" way at all
[07:51] <visof_> can i make the menus  transparent in ubuntu , if ya how?

[07:52] <Henrik1> LjL, according to the package manager it is not part of the install of dante_client and a find returns nothing... trying your suggestion now
[07:53] <evilofisho> I've got a problem,  I've got a bunch of japanese zips.. Those files have files with japanese names inside of them, now the problem seems to be that the unzipped doesn't seem to be able to read those ones so I can't extract them.. What to do ? D:

[07:57] <erUSUL> dystopianray: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[07:57] <praet> evilofisho: you could also try 7zip [sudo apt-get install 7zip] 
[07:58] <Pici> !multijava | dystopianray
[07:58] <ubotu> dystopianray: To set which java version/implementation is to be used as default, use sudo update-java-alternatives
[07:58] <LjL> Henrik1: well in any case it would seem like tsocks can also do the job
[07:58] <doktoreas> hi to all
[07:58] <kidbuntu> stdin: check this out. i have no clue. but the message is still the same. it anoys me whenever i see that message in the terminal http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37811/
[07:58] <dystopianray> kitche: I don't have eclipse-gcj installed
[07:58] <LjL> Henrik1: http://linux.die.net/man/8/tsocks
[07:58] <doktoreas> i ahve got a troublem with my ubuntu installation..my fan doesn't stop to run
[07:59] <dystopianray> erUSUL: I've already done that, sun's jdk works fine when invoked manually
[07:59] <sooth> rafaelscj: apt-get install feh
[07:59] <Henrik1> LjL, yes but a friend of me tried tsocks on another distro that it has a problem with defaulting to direct if no "path/route" is found, he ended up patching tsocks to reverse its logic...
[07:59] <praet> rafaelscj: try [eog ] 
[07:59] <kling> doktoreas: casefan or graphic,CPU
[08:00] <doktoreas> CPU
[08:00] <sooth> rafaelscj: gqview seems to work as well
[08:00] <doktoreas> i am on laptp
[08:00] <Henrik1> LjL, my situation is similar, I must use direct for 90% of the routes only specific customer networks are accessed through socks
[08:00] <LjL> Henrik1: uhm, you could *probably* set an iptables rule that doesn't allow anything but connections to the SOCKS server through...
[08:00] <LjL> Henrik1: oh
[08:00] <swiftnomad> Does anyone know any free digital certificates that uses OCSP? I've tried http://www.thawte.com/ but It's not lteeing OCSP validate it.
[08:00] <coni_> HI there, I have a weird problem. Every time I reboot I lose /lib/2.6.16-generic etc ect / kernel / sound
[08:00] <swiftnomad> letting. Sorry about my grammer.
[08:00] <kling> doktoreas: there is something you could try. search on google for C1 C2
[08:01] <Henrik1> Ljl, yep it is the reverse of the normal scenario
[08:01] <coni_> so I lose my alsa modules ever time I reboot
[08:01] <sooth> rafaelscj: Or you can copy the files into another directory and browse them with anything you like
[08:01] <doktoreas> kling: the matter is that CPU is at 43
[08:02] <coni_> Anyone have any ideas?
[08:02] <kling> okey, so it is at normal temp.
[08:02] <stdin> kidbuntu: try this "sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/available-old /var/lib/dpkg/available" to use a older cache file
[08:02] <evilofisho> praet: 7zip did the job, thanks.
[08:03] <sooth> rafaelscj: file * | awk 'BEGIN{FS=":"} $2 ~ /JPEG/i {print $1}' | xargs mv -t /destination/directory -v
[08:03] <kling> doktoreas: then I'm to no good.
[08:03] <doktoreas> np :)
[08:03] <coni_> I would like to roll back to 2.6.15 but ubuntu warns me not too
[08:03] <kling> doktoreas: there is a big problem with power consumption on laptops for Linux.
[08:04] <LjL> Henrik1: uhm. there is another program i know, "proxychains"... in theory you have to launch it with single programs, but a dump of the executable gives this: ^@LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libproxychains.so^@^@^@proxychains can't load process....^@^@^
[08:04] <LjL> Henrik1: so i guess it can be easily used as a ld_preload library... let me check what the config file allows
[08:04] <rafaelscj> sooth, what's the simbol for the actual directory?
[08:05] <kling> doktoreas: during XP sessions I can use my laptop for 3,5 hours on battery, but under ubuntu.. I'm able to get only 2 hours.
[08:05] <dbrewer_rjr> I have a question about https configuration. Can I get one digital certificate that will work for any domain I am hosting on my LAMP server?

[08:05] <Discerer> ok so I run the ubuntu installation CD, and when it's booting up ubuntu to install it it gets stuck saying "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" and I'm in an ash shell that says (initramfs). what to do?

[08:37] <dystopianray> adrian: reactos is a standalone OS, virtualisation includes qemu, vmware, xen, etc... to run a virtualised windows
[08:37] <dystopianray> !ntfs | morydd_lap
[08:37] <ubotu> morydd_lap: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:37] <dfletcher> sebastian, that attempt to change groups seems to have completely locked me out of sudoers
[08:37] <snoopy__> young-man, the server does not install gnome or kde
[08:37] <DrthHmstr> hey
[08:38] <snoopy__> young-man, you can apt get it
[08:38] <dazrour> i have trailed the forums to no avail - can anyone help me reduce my cpu fan speed without using the bios
[08:38] <morydd_lap> !ntfs-3g
[08:38] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:38] <erUSUL> dfletcher: you should have used 'useradd <user> group' ....
[08:38] <young-man> please give me a command man
[08:38] <Discerer> asking again: so I run the ubuntu installation CD, and when it's booting up ubuntu to install it it gets stuck saying "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" and I'm in an ash shell that says (initramfs). what to do?
[08:38] <dfletcher> erUSUL, shoulda doesn't put food on the table! ;D
[08:38] <young-man> and where to get a cd or smhng to install that stuff
[08:38] <DrthHmstr> I'll think about it
[08:38] <dystopianray> young-man: why do you want a gui on ubuntu server?
[08:38] <lamzaks>  I hawe one question about ubuntu server eddition
[08:39] <dazrour> i have trailed the forums to no avail - can anyone help me reduce my cpu fan speed without using the bios
[08:39] <erUSUL> dfletcher: when you use -G with usermod you are added to the listed groups and *deleted* from any other so you deleted yourself from the admin group which is wha t granted you the hability to use sudo
[08:39] <young-man> because i need a internet gateway server for network but im lame on linux commands :(
[08:39] <dfletcher> yeah erUSUL I realized that after I got locked out ;) I needed to specify the whole list, or use the version you mentioned before
[08:39] <kane77> can theme cause freezes? like you cannot click on anything?
[08:40] <erUSUL> dfletcher: so you only have to find a way to add your user back to the admin group
[08:40] <dazrour> Can anyone help me reduce my cpu fan speed without using the bios?
[08:40] <snoopy__> young-man, i think its apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:41] <young-man> so is it possible to start some graphic interface on server version of ubuntu?
[08:41] <dystopianray> young-man: yes of course
[08:41] <snoopy__> young-man, see this thread
[08:41] <MasterShrek> young-man, you need to install it though i believe
[08:41] <snoopy__> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-186298.html
[08:41] <erUSUL> dfletcher: without physicall access to the machine that seems near impossible (linux is pretty secure, isn't it)
[08:41] <erUSUL> ?
[08:41] <dfletcher> erUSUL, yeah so it does mean a trip to the hosting facility (with an internal IDE drive that I'll have to install for just a sec- it's a 1U server and there's no room for another disk)
[08:41] <dfletcher> damn that was the command of doom :)
[08:42] <dazrour> Can anyone help me reduce my cpu fan speed without using the bios
[08:42] <young-man> tnx people again
[08:43] <erUSUL> dfletcher: yeah :). You have to be very carefull when using superpowers XD

[08:47] <dazrour> dfletcher: take it there is no command line code to do it then
[08:48] <dystopianray> miller^: if fglrx supports your card then you should bea ble to install it

[08:49] <pdonne3> erUSUL: do you know if e2fsck is run against a read-only disk if it will actually change anything?
[08:50] <miller^> Does anyone else know something about the fglrx-driver?
[08:50] <MasterShrek> anyone know how i can not have to reload nspluginwrapper every time i restart firefox?
[08:50] <davidthedrake> Hex_101, there is a lot of information out there about that particular problem. They're called window decorations.
[08:50] <pdonne3> erUSUL: buring a live CD now...btw
[08:50] <Hex_101> Okay, thankyou davidthedrake :)
[08:51] <dazrour> Hex_101 are you trying out compiz or beryl?

[08:52] <[nrx] > hi folks. can someone assist me in figuring out why KDE/GNOME wont logout/shutdown properly? All I get is a black screen that sits for ages and ages... and ctrl + alt + bckspace doesn't bring it out, either.

[08:53] <dazrour> Hex_101: usually on mine if that happens the window decorator has crashed, i do alt f2 and type metacity --replace
[08:53] <Ravenndude`> How can I put a file onto the live CD's ISO so it is in the file structure (like ~/ or ~/Desktop)?
[08:53] <proxosi> I have strange fonts ' with the files in Korean / Japanese character how i fix that
[08:53] <Hex_101> bingo!
[08:54] <Hex_101> thankyou dazrour!
[08:54] <kRush> pdonne3, read only works as advertised
[08:54] <Hex_101> will i have to type that in each time i login?
[08:54] <dazrour> no its because the window decorator isnt working with your graphics card
[08:54] <Hex_101> How come that would happen? it was working fine before?
[08:55] <pdonne3> kRush:OK.  I manually ran fsck against hda when it was mounted but read-only.  Had root system file errors
[08:55] <dazrour> not sure i only know that fixes it, if you talk to some of the mods here they might know
[08:55] <pdonne3> kRush:going to boot using live cd to recover files to second drive.  wanted to make sure I didn't trash anything.

[09:01] <DexterF> what is /dev/shm anyway?
[09:01] <mark488> Hi. I'd like to basic-chop edit a few .mov files.  What app is recommended?
[09:02] <dazrour> avidemux mark
[09:04] <hjmills> how do i get a list of every package installed by a particular release of ubuntu?
[09:05] <proxosi> I have strange fonts ' with the files in Korean / Japanese character how i fix that
[09:06] <FFighter> I've got a java app that gets ran through a sh script but everytime I try to run it, ubuntu asks me if I want to open the sh file, run in terminal or run
[09:06] <FFighter> How could I just run the executable directly ?
[09:06] <FFighter> bypassing this check?
[09:06] <FFighter> Is it possilbe/
[09:07] <dystopianray> hjmills: the mirrors have list files for each release showing all included files, for example: http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/ubuntu/releases/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.list
[09:07] <dystopianray> hjmills: but having looked at it, it doesn't seem terribly useful
[09:08] <hjmills> dystopianray, thanks
[09:08] <Mobu1> I tried to load a movie into Totem, and the sound will play, but there is no video, its all black.  Now, when I click Fullscreen, the video will flash on for a split second and go black again.  How do I fix this?
[09:09] <mobus> ??
[09:10] <NET||abuse> hmm, i want to download a big file on a box in work for tomorrow morning, but i need a login session cookie to be set in my wget or curl or whatever i use, i iopened my firefox cookies.txt file and i have ".easynews.com   TRUE    /       FALSE   2147385600      __utma  63532859.594531570.1188077551.1188836017.1190135771.4" how can i use that?
[09:10] <Srixon> Hello, im having trouble installing ubuntu on my laptop.
[09:10] <mobus> I tried to load a movie into Totem, and the sound will play, but there is no video, its all black.  Now, when I click Fullscreen, the video will flash on for a split second and go black again.  How do I fix this?
[09:11] <mobus> Srixon: What kind of trouble?
[09:11] <MartinW> When I reload synaptic I keep on getting these http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37819/ errors, even after generating and using a new sources.list.
[09:11] <Srixon> After install, (troubled install) the screen stays black onbootup
[09:11] <MartinW> How do I fix this?
[09:11] <dystopianray> NET||abuse: wget has a --load-cookies option, accepts a netscape format cookies file (which I assume firefox would use)
[09:11] <erUSUL> NET||abuse: from the wget man page  --load-cookies file
[09:11] <mobus> how long did you wait srixon? If you wait about 60 seconds, it might come on
[09:11] <mobus> the same thing happened to me
[09:11] <Srixon> I have to install it in "Safe Graphics" mode first anyhow,
[09:11] <Srixon> andi  let it go overnight
[09:12] <mobus> hmmmm
[09:12] <mobus> I don't know then.  Did you try moving the mouse to make sure it wasn't on standby?
[09:12] <Srixon> wheni load it up on recovery mode, it freeze on something with the TSC and processors
[09:12] <Srixon> yeah
[09:12] <NET||abuse> dystopianray, i'll try that line in a cookie file so.
[09:12] <wckdkl0wn> is there a way to convert kubuntu over to ubuntu?
[09:12] <mobus> Which installation cd are you using?
[09:13] <wckdkl0wn> but save everything i have installed
[09:13] <LjL> !kubuntu | wckdkl0wn, same goes both ways
[09:13] <ubotu> wckdkl0wn, same goes both ways: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[09:13] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:13] <LjL> !kde | wckdkl0wn, sorry i meant this
[09:13] <ubotu> wckdkl0wn, sorry i meant this: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE) . Latest KDE version is 3.5.7 for Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[09:13] <Srixon> Ive tried a few, Ubuntu from the website(latest 7.04).. ubuntu Edgy eft, Ultimate Gamer edition and Ultimate Edition
[09:13] <MartinW> !gpgerrors
[09:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gpgerrors - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:13] <MartinW> !gpgerror
[09:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gpgerror - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:13] <MartinW> !synaptic
[09:13] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[09:13] <mobus> I tried to load a movie into Totem, and the sound will play, but there is no video, its all black.  Now, when I click Fullscreen, the video will flash on for a split second and go black again.  How do I fix this?
[09:14] <LjL> wckdkl0wn: problem is, all the kubuntu stuff you have will be left installed. you can try "sudo apt-get autoremove kubuntu-desktop", but it may not work as you want -- in particular, pay attention to what it removes, it may remove stuff you wanted to keep
[09:14] <LjL> !gpgerr | MartinW
[09:14] <ubotu> MartinW: Getting GPG errors after adding custom repositories? Read the top section of http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[09:14] <Srixon> Any idea mobus?
[09:14] <wckdkl0wn> ok
[09:14] <LjL> !away > BeerSerc_away    (BeerSerc_away, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:14] <MartinW> That didn't work..
[09:14] <FFighter> I've got a java app that gets ran through a sh script but everytime I try to run it, ubuntu asks me if I want to open the sh file, run in terminal or run
[09:14] <wckdkl0wn> i dont like kde thats why i want to go back thats all
[09:14] <wckdkl0wn> lol
[09:14] <mobus> which installation cd are you using serixon?
[09:14] <Srixon> Ive tried a few, Ubuntu from the website(latest 7.04).. ubuntu Edgy eft, Ultimate Gamer edition and Ultimate Edition
[09:14] <LjL> MartinW: if you do a "sudo apt-get update", do you get that error too?
[09:14] <mobus> no
[09:14] <mobus> is it the live cd or text cd
[09:14] <MartinW> Yes
[09:15] <Srixon> live cd
[09:15] <kristian_> i have a ext3 disk which i have too log into every time i want to use it because its owned by root (me)
[09:15] <dystopianray> FFighter: so select run
[09:15] <mobus> try the text cd
[09:15] <kristian_> how do i change this?
[09:15] <FFighter> dystopianray, yeah, but isn't there a way to "remember" this setting?
[09:15] <Srixon> does that still have the gui?
[09:15] <mobus> no
[09:15] <dystopianray> FFighter: make a shortcut to the script
[09:15] <mobus> but it has A gui
[09:15] <mobus> just a watered down one
[09:15] <LjL> wckdkl0wn: how long have you used it? KDE, in my opinion, looks terrible by default. once you make it suit your tastes more, though, it offers quite some power and an integrated environment
[09:15] <MartinW> I tried to add the key as dictated in the sources.list from the generator but that also gave me  an error.
[09:15] <Srixon> am i able to upgrade it?
[09:15] <mobus> just download teh feisty cd
[09:16] <LjL> MartinW: what error? can you pastebin the whole thing?
[09:16] <mobus> you won't need to
[09:16] <mobus> but yes
[09:16] <FFighter> dystopianray, a symlink?
[09:16] <MartinW> I'll just go and reproduce it.
[09:16] <FFighter> dystopianray, I tried it but the same behaviour
[09:16] <dystopianray> FFighter: gnome/kde can make shortcuts
[09:16] <Srixon> i mean upgrade the graphics to what the normal ubuntu is?  is the text cd just a text installer?
[09:16] <mobus> its just a text installer
[09:16] <dystopianray> FFighter: a desktop or menu shortcut
[09:16] <mobus> the system will be normal
[09:16] <Srixon> alright
[09:16] <Srixon> thanks
[09:16] <Srixon> ill try that
[09:16] <mobus> cool
[09:16] <mobus> glad to help
[09:16] <dystopianray> FFighter: in kde I can click on the desktop and go to 'create new -> link to application'
[09:16] <joebob777as7> if i install a nautilus script where does it install to?
[09:17] <mobus> #totem
[09:17] <LjL> Srixon: the *Server* CD gives you a text-only environment, but the *Alternate* CD is simple a text-mode installer for the full-blown Desktop version
[09:17] <UberPsyX> hey guys (and gals), im new to pc's but i just put a 2nd harddrive in my system, i couldnt find the jumper settings anywhere so i used trial and error, i got it to pick up in gparted but its set as a read-only drive, how do i set it up so i can install vista on it and have it as a seperate...thing..you get what i mean
[09:17] <Srixon> LjL: thanks
[09:17] <FFighter> dystopianray, Tried it, it won't run
[09:17] <NET||abuse> hmm, ok i cat path/to/firefox/cookies.txt | grep domainname.com and put all the lines there into a cookies file on my box in work,, i try wget --load-cookies cookies.txt http://domain.com/download?x=y&z=w  and it still gives a 401 authorization failed :(
[09:18] <dystopianray> FFighter: is there an error?
[09:18] <recon69> got a question, has the dvd encryption got better recently, as I am having problems playing dvd's on my system and am wondering if it time to get a new dvd player?
[09:18] <FFighter> dystopianray, I created a launcher
[09:18] <FFighter> dystopianray, no
[09:18] <FFighter> dystopianray, It just fails silently
[09:18] <dystopianray> FFighter: you must be doing it wrong
[09:18] <erUSUL> NET||abuse: why not use the full cookies.txt??
[09:18] <FFighter> dystopianray, the path to the sh script is correct
[09:18] <NET||abuse> erUSUL, umm, i suppose, i could just copy it..
[09:19] <cox377> would anyone mind giving me a hand with HTTPD?
[09:19] <dystopianray> FFighter: is the working directory correct?
[09:19] <recon69> can even play the copy-protection bit at the start of dvd, but I get a "can't read NAV"  error when i try to watch main feature?
[09:19] <joebob777as7> if i install a nautilus script where does it install to?
[09:19] <FFighter> dystopianray, it only has a "command" field where I can put the command to run
[09:20] <mobus> I tried to load a movie into Totem, and the sound will play, but there is no video, its all black.  Now, when I click Fullscreen, the video will flash on for a split second and go black again.  How do I fix this?
[09:20] <Marlun> If I've got some mp3 file which actually is like 3min long but serpentine and other burning programs for gnome tells me the songs are like 20min, I was told something about changing bitrates yeasterday (unfortunately I don't remember exactly what was told). Can I fix this somehow? some tool? =)
[09:20] <NET||abuse> erUSUL, ok, sftp'd the cookies.txt file and it still isn't authorized :( What's wrong here?? my current firefox session is still authorized apparently?
[09:20] <dystopianray> FFighter: hrrm, I don't know much about gnome so i'm not sure what else you can do
[09:20] <dystopianray> recon69: there is something wrong with the dvd
[09:20] <dystopianray> recon69: the disk has errors on it
[09:21] <erUSUL> NET||abuse: dunno, sorry. i've never used cookies with wget... just read the man page...
[09:21] <MartinW> Oh no! I'm such an idiot, I forgot sudo, thats why it that gave me an error.
[09:22] <MartinW> Sorry
[09:22] <dystopianray> marlun: changing bitrates won't affect the length of the song, only the quality
[09:22] <recon69> dystopianray: these disks work fine on my regular DVD player
[09:22] <FFighter> dystopianray, nevermind
[09:22] <FFighter> dystopianray, thanks anyway
[09:22] <dystopianray> recon69: regular dvd players are more tolerant of errors
[09:22] <proxosi> I have strange fonts ' with the files in Korean / Japanese character how i fix that
[09:22] <proxosi> How i see video files in rmvb format ... for real video 4.0 codec???
[09:23] <Marlun> dystopianray: got any idea what could be causing this then and how I may fix it? =)
[09:23] <Wulfie> where besides xorg.conf can I tell ubuntu my resolution to start X in?  Currently it wants to start it at 1440x1440 even though xorg.conf says 1440x900
[09:23] <dystopianray> marlun: not really, sorry
[09:23] <recon69> dystopianray: hmm, thinking my computers DVD player is stuffed, just wanted to ask as I would feel really stupid if i bought a new one and it did not fix the problem ( and poorer )
[09:24] <dn4> what type of number system did the maya use to calculate ?
[09:24] <kaserek> Witam, szukam odpowiednika SopCasta pod Ubuntu (w koncu dzis liga mistrzow)...

[09:24] <recon69> dystopianray: and some of the DVD i'v tried did not have a mark on them , so i think it's my pc's dvd player
[09:25] <dystopianray> recon69: it may be a copy protection designed to screw with dvd-rom drives
[09:25] <hjmills> recon69, do what I did and use the excuse to buy a lightscribe writer then find the other one isnt broken and end up with 2 drives
[09:26] <hjmills> recon69, no, I never have written a lightscribe disc, but the logo on the drive tray looks cool...

[09:29] <ice2cool> i have installed winxp there but how do i get my video card configured......it dosent detect my video card
[09:29] <xtknight> i am aware of the alternate cd, but by any method is it possible to mount a RAID volume and install using ubiquity-installer?  would modprobing mdadm be enough for /dev/md0 to show up *somewhere*?
[09:29] <proxosi> I have strange fonts ' with the files in Korean / Japanese character how i fix that
[09:29] <proxosi> How i see video files in rmvb format ... for real video 4.0 codec???
[09:29] <xtknight> !w32codecs | proxosi
[09:29] <ubotu> proxosi: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[09:29] <zi2> what is the best way to install M$ office on ubuntu? I heard there is a better way then WINE
[09:29] <joebob777as7> ice2cool, i know in vmware you have to install vmtools it pops up when you log in...
[09:29] <ice2cool> which graphic driver will work in vmplayer?
[09:29] <xtknight> proxosi, there's an RV40 codec in w32codecs, for mplayer
[09:29] <xtknight> ice2cool, any
[09:30] <wckdkl0wn> if i do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop dont i have to uninstall the kubuntu-desktop?
[09:30] <joebob777as7> ice2cool, none will work right
[09:30] <xtknight> ice2cool, be more specific
[09:30] <dystopianray> wckdkl0wn: no you don't
[09:30] <wckdkl0wn> ok ty dystopianray
[09:30] <NET||abuse> ahhh,, ok, gottit.. logged in using wget --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies cookie.txt --post-data 'username=xyz&password=zvw' http://www.domain.com/login/ and then wget --keep-session-cookies --load-cookies cookie.txt http://www.domain.com/download/filetodownload.zip
[09:30] <dystopianray> ice2cool: there is a specific vmware driver
[09:30] <xtknight> what happens when you install both ubuntu and kubuntu-desktop?  does it give you a choice via gdm?
[09:30] <joebob777as7> ice2cool, vmware and vmplayer won't allow direct access to hardware it emulates hardware by installing a driver. you will not have great vga performance with it...
[09:31] <dystopianray> xtknight: you select kde/gnome through the session menu on gdm/kdm
[09:31] <magnetron> xtknight: yes
[09:31] <xtknight> ahh
[09:31] <Sivik> xtknight: it should, you should be able to choose if you want to login with gnome or kde
[09:31] <qmyro> hi all i am trying to build boost from source could does someone have a how to or a link
[09:32] <NET||abuse> hoohooohahaha,, nice,, 800MB in 32Minutes.. that'll do :)
[09:33] <proxosi> xtknight what is w32codecs for>?
[09:33] <xtknight> proxosi, it contains Windows DLLs for playing those media codecs such as RV40
[09:33] <ompaul> !w32codecs | proxosi
[09:33] <ubotu> proxosi: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[09:33] <xtknight> proxosi, they are proprietary, so they can not be distributed freely
[09:33] <mark488> dazrour and others....  avidemux doesn't have codec for .mov audio.  Basic editor that can handle .mov ?
[09:33] <erUSUL> NET||abuse: it's a looooooong command invocation ;)
[09:34] <xtknight> proxosi, mplayer (a media player program) can use these DLLs to play back your RV40-files
[09:34] <ice2cool> how do i get that specific vmware driver
[09:34] <NET||abuse> erUSUL, well, means i can console in and download junk from behind a login now..
[09:34] <xtknight> ice2cool, it is automatically detected and installed in the VM if you use linux, most of the time.  Else, use VMWARE Tools
[09:34] <Funcan> Hi. Is there a debian/ubuntu 'proper' way of removing a server from a runlevel, so that upgrades don't put it back?
[09:34] <xtknight> Funcan, removing it from Services
[09:34] <xtknight> ?
[09:35] <NET||abuse> erUSUL, now if only there was an automated way :P
[09:35] <proxosi> xtknight the link u gave me what i'm looking for to download?
[09:35] <cox377> can anyone recommend a good https how to?
[09:35] <ice2cool> okz
[09:35] <NET||abuse> erUSUL, know of a remote download queue manager or some such thing :)
[09:35] <ice2cool> are vmware tools free?
[09:35] <dystopianray> ice2cool: they were recently made open source
[09:35] <NET||abuse> ice2cool, they are or were just open sourced
[09:35] <xtknight> proxosi, add these to /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:35] <xtknight> proxosi, deb http://mirror3.ubuntu.com/ feisty-seveas extras freenx
[09:35] <xtknight> deb-src http://mirror3.ubuntu.com/ feisty-seveas extras freenx
[09:35] <Funcan> xtknight: I've been rming the symlinks to /etc/init.d. What do you mean removing it from services?
[09:35] <kane77> can theme cause freezes? like you cannot click on anything?
[09:36] <IndyLucian> i cant find anything on help.ubuntu.com about compatibility with PCI TV Tuner cards. Anyone know if any work for sure with ubuntu?
[09:36] <xtknight> proxosi, if that doesn't work you'll have to find a mirror that does work.  replace http:// with an address listed as a mirror.
[09:36] <cox377> !https
[09:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about https - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:36] <cox377> !httpd
[09:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about httpd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:36] <xtknight> Funcan, system->admin->services is the proper way to remove a lot of stuff.  do you see your Server in there?
[09:36] <NET||abuse> gotta go home before that download is finished so i can kick off another :)
[09:36] <NET||abuse> laters all.

[09:41] <qmyro> the deb package is buggy
[09:41] <qmyro> yeah
[09:42] <xtknight> qmyro,  it's buggy, what do you mean?

[09:42] <Wulfie> where besides xorg.conf can I tell ubuntu my resolution to start X in?  Currently it wants to start it at 1440x1440 even though xorg.conf says 1440x900
[09:42] <xtknight> qmyro, if you find a bug it would be helpful to submit a bug report to LaunchPad so we can either Sync the new version of boost or backport a patch to the current one.
[09:43] <qmyro> ok moment

[09:50] <Srixon> xtknight: whats it do?
[09:50] <xtknight> Wulfie, that line is probably messing things up
[09:50] <Srixon> or rather, Should i use it?
[09:50] <xtknight> Srixon, i believe it allows RAID.  you shouldn't use it unless you know you need it
[09:50] <Wulfie> okay let me try this then
[09:50] <Srixon> Alrighty, thanks
[09:50] <xtknight> Srixon, or, combining multiple drives to single partitions, etc.

[09:53] <xtknight> proxosi, see "Errors when using this repository" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[09:53] <acecase> Funcan, yeah, I thought that applet may be causing me problems but it gets my home network up when I can't do it with iwconfig manually so I keep it. I'll try what you said. :)
[09:53] <dazrour> once you have done that give me a ahout

[09:57] <acecase> Who said HP Pavilion wouldn't run Ubuntu well :)
[09:57] <Secher> thanks guys
[09:57] <xtknight> qmyro, it looks like you want to install "build-essential" (try that first), or "libstdc++6-dev"
[09:57] <qmyro> ok moment
[09:57] <hyperbola_> someone say my name?
[09:57] <crowley1027> anyone farmiliar with xscreensaver?

[09:58] <crowley1027> How do i install xscreensaver-5.03.tar.gz if it is saved on my desktop
[09:58] <jlouis_> lizard_: whats 'cut out' specifically?
[09:58] <e\ectro_> but when it boots, I dont see it picking up the preseed file
[09:58] <gravemind> jlouis_: it says its wave audio. maybe speex doesn't understand all types of waves
[09:58] <Funcan> acecase, I'm missing sound on this laptop, and any form of powersaving on the may other
[09:58] <jlouis_> no sound at all, or?
[09:58] <erUSUL> crowley1027: what's wrong with the packaged version?
[09:58] <EMO> does anybody know how to install a usplash
[09:58] <lizard_> jlouis_: stop working entirely... no sound on login or anything
[09:58] <crowley1027> erUSUL: Only like 3% of the screensavers work
[09:58] <CountX> how can i convert an ogg video file down to a smaller resolution?
[09:58] <acecase> Funcan, what are they?
[09:58] <CountX> like scale it?

[09:59] <jlouis_> gravemind: heh, you could try to convert it around. The soundconverter package may be able to do it
[09:59] <EMO> thanks
[10:00] <crowley1027> erUSUL: how do i fix that then
[10:00] <Secher> do you know if i can merge a partition together with the root drive?
[10:00] <Funcan> acecase, this one is an HP nc440, other is an acer media thing
[10:00] <Secher> using gparted*
[10:00] <Srixon> if your a ninja
[10:00] <dj_red> cineva disponibil sa imi dea si mie cateva explicatii despre ubuntu?
[10:00] <panosru> does anyone knows how to install flash on ubuntu 64bit?
[10:00] <jlouis_> lizard_: it sounds like a module problem of some kind.
[10:00] <Srixon> Ubuntu scares me... i thought it was hanigng on 6% install.. but it turn sout it just had to wait 10 mins :P
[10:00] <panosru> if its possible
[10:01] <crowley1027> How do i enable 3D accelaration?
[10:01] <jlouis_> lizard_: nothing interesting in /var/log which could hint?
[10:01] <acecase> Funcan, you don't seem like the type who has failed to use Google so I'd say you have tried anything I could suggest.
[10:01] <dj_red> ubuntu its like linux?
[10:01] <crowley1027> OH Man!
[10:01] <lizard_> jlouis_: i'll have a look
[10:01] <lizard_> 2secs
[10:01] <crowley1027> I need to install my grafx drivers
[10:01] <jlouis_> lizard_: I am only giving you ideas. I don't know how to fix it

[10:02] <Funcan> acecase, indeed, I'm waiting for alsa/intel to update the driver for the sound issue, and acpi will work on the acer one day, maybe...
[10:02] <kr00l> Does anyone know why i can't see Wine in my Applications list?
[10:02] <Geeunkown> I keep get this error message everytime I try and install the Vmware Server from the Synaptic:( E: /var/cache/apt/archives/vmware-server_1.0.3-1_i386.deb: subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1) can anyone help.

[10:03] <kr00l> crowley1027, you shouldn't buy a computer from Walmart
[10:03] <xtknight> itll work on amd64/em64t anyway
[10:03] <crowley1027> kr00l, i'm ordering parts for a from-scratch computer anyways haha
[10:03] <crowley1027> this is a temp
[10:03] <acecase> Funcan, seems like there is always something that has to be hacked together dosen't it.
[10:03] <kr00l> crowley1027, hahaha
[10:04] <Funcan> acecase, indeed. I hate computers.
[10:04] <qmyro> @xtknight thanks for the info the url = | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37825/
[10:04] <erUSUL> crowley1027: enable 3d acceleration?
[10:04] <acecase> Funcan, I had an Inspiron 1100 when they first came out and had a pcmcia acx100 based wifi card and it took longer to get video and wifi working than to install :)

[10:05] <TU> so long they fail sometimes.
[10:05] <acecase> Fudgie, I love em. They keep me occupied :)
[10:05] <Invisionfree> WHats a html editor (Like dreamweaver where you can drag and drop stuff) for Ubuntu?
[10:05] <jlouis_> TU: check the network
[10:05] <TU> the network works
[10:05] <Geeunkown> I guess not..
[10:05] <TU> i am connected to my router
[10:05] <TU> and every other device works perfectly
[10:05] <mildner> good evening
[10:05] <TU> it is just this ONE pc.
[10:05] <atomicfreeze> does anyone know how to use GAIM and join rooms in yahoo chat
[10:06] <TU> look ups are perfect.
[10:06] <Invisionfree> WHats a html editor (Like dreamweaver where you can drag and drop stuff) for Ubuntu?

[10:06] <erUSUL> Invisionfree: i do not know of any
[10:06] <jlouis_> TU: if lookups work, then what doesn't work, specifically?
[10:06] <mildner> I have got a external HD how can I formate it...its with windows and I have to change the read an write rights
[10:07] <TU> jlouis_: they take forever
[10:07] <TU> jlouis_: so long they time out sometimes
[10:07] <xtknight> qmyro, well the link shows packages that have the file you need
[10:07] <TU> every where else it is almost instantaneous
[10:07] <TU> (my other devices i mean)
[10:07] <xtknight> qmyro, i'd install latest versions of all those listed pkgs
[10:07] <CountX> whats a good program for converting ogg video to something smaller
[10:07] <qmyro> ok thanks i will
[10:07] <CountX> anyone?
[10:07] <Railer> Hey Just got my oil changed and the shops computers all ran ubuntu, just though I'd mention it
[10:07] <vader1102> TU my gosh how many times you going to hit the enter key?
[10:07] <jlouis_> TU: you could dig around in /etc/resolv.conf and check it is the same as the other PCs.
[10:08] <kr00l> Railer, where was that at? State?
[10:08] <CountX> Railer: which version?
[10:08] <jlouis_> CountX: I'd use mplayer/mencoder for that
[10:08] <[nrx] > Railer: we have that here in the UK too, Farmers garages run ubuntu :)
[10:08] <mildner> anybody reading my question?
[10:08] <Railer> I didn't ask which version Stony Plain Alberta

[10:08] <Railer> one sec I forgot the nam eof the place
[10:09] <TU> jlouis_: they are my tivo/xbox
[10:09] <vader1102> Railer, awesome news for the Ubuntu team :)
[10:09] <TU> jlouis_: but the looks ip FINE
[10:09] <jlouis_> TU: yes, but are they using the same DNS server?
[10:09] <TU> jlouis_: no clue.  My router does all that.
[10:09] <gilster> are there any recent issues with firefox?
[10:09] <vader1102> gilster, not to my knowledge
[10:09] <TU> my laptop's /etc/resolv.conf is kinda wierd too.
[10:10] <gilster> my firefox keeps randomly shutting down :-(
[10:10] <TU> jlouis_: it has the nameserver as 127.0.0.1
[10:10] <mildner> nrx: sorry I wasn't pushing
[10:10] <jlouis_> TU: mine has too ;)
[10:10] <[nrx] > TU, that's correct.. but you should have another nameserver line, too
[10:10] <TU> jlouis_: which dosn't make sense because i don't run a dns server unless dnsmasq (which was installed by defualt) is doing it too
[10:10] <TU> [nrx] : does search unh.edu (my school) count?
[10:10] <ephesius> does anyone know of a way to search a lan for a dc++ hub?
[10:11] <gilster> my firefox keeps randomly shutting down :-( does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
[10:11] <xerophyte1> does anybody know why do i get this error EXT3-fs error (device sda6): ext3_free_blocks: Freeing blocks not in datazone - block = 3120627712, count = 1
[10:11] <[nrx] > TU, wouldn't have thought so, but if it's a valid DNS server, there's no reason why not
[10:11] <gravemind> jlouis_: I suppose I could encode it as flac, then decode it back to wav and then try again
[10:11] <TU> [nrx] : Okay. fair enough.  I think it is defualting to that to do lookups which is why it is so f'ing slow.
[10:11] <Railer> econo lube, Spruce Grove, Alberta, Canada runs their shops computers and service programs on unbuntu, newer version,
[10:11] <[nrx] > TU, most likely, yeah :)
[10:12] <Badpenguin86> My blinking text cursor in open office won't move when I press the space bar, but will when I type a letter. Anyone know why?
[10:12] <CountX> how do i get to the help for mencoder
[10:12] <jlouis_> CountX: man mencoder
[10:13] <gilster> my firefox keeps randomly shutting down :-( does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
[10:13] <[nrx] > Badpenguin86: because you shouldn't start a sentence with a space. Alternatively, try #openoffice.org
[10:13] <Srixon> OH MY GOD... Finally... Ubuntu is on my laptop.. (rebooting)
[10:13] <TU> [nrx] : so how do i fix it.
[10:13] <Srixon> *waits*
[10:13] <Pollywog> I am unable to save a file to RCS in fwbuilder, is it a bug?
[10:13] <rgallego> hello
[10:13] <jlouis_> CountX: there is also some documentation on the net
[10:13] <Discerer> Srixon wish I could say the same =/
[10:13] <floppyears> hi guys, I have an ubuntu machine and in the /etc/network/interface I have it setup to use an static ip, and /etc/init.d/network restart will make it so that the machine uses the static ip address
[10:13] <Discerer> I get the tty errror =/
[10:13] <Pollywog> I did not have this problem in FreeBSD, only in Feisty
[10:13] <[nrx] > TU, put the ip address of your router in there instead :)
[10:13] <floppyears> but every 6 or 8 hrs the machine stops using that static ip and gets a dynamic ip from the router
[10:13] <TU> [nrx] : that dosn't solve my problem.
[10:13] <proxosi> xtknight what i do next?
[10:13] <Srixon> Discerer: whats wrong with yours?  the alternate desktop cd worked for me...
[10:13] <floppyears> how can I fix this problem in ubuntu ?
[10:13] <erUSUL> Pollywog: maybe you did not installed the rcs tools?
[10:14] <xtknight> proxosi, try the compile?
[10:14] <TU> [nrx] : i want to fix it so that when i dhcp it gets the right stuff as this is a laptop and i move around quite a bit.
[10:14] <Pollywog> erUSUL: ty
[10:14] <qmyro> @xtknight i installed the packages containing atomicity.h still get the same error
[10:14] <xtknight> qmyro, sorry, not really sure
[10:14] <proxosi> xtknight i got the error fix and did only deb http://mirror.ubuntulinux.nl/ feisty-seveas extras freenx
[10:14] <xtknight> proxosi, ah
[10:14] <proxosi> xtknight complie?
[10:14] <xtknight> proxosi, sorry wrong nickname
[10:15] <proxosi> xtknight and i got the mplayer.
[10:15] <[nrx] > TU, not so sure then.. the only places I roam between all have the router as the same IP address, sorry :/
[10:15] <qmyro> thanks xknight i will look further
[10:15] <Centaur5> Could anybody tell me an iptables command I can type to ban a DHCP server from assigning addresses?
[10:15] <panosru> i have 3 hard drives, one is 12 IDE 12gb and the other 2 are SATA 2 160GB each, one is ntfs with vista and the other is ext3 with files. both have files that i can't lose. I installed Ubuntu on a 12gb quantom just for testing purposes and i likes ubuntu more than windows and i want it as primary OS. No problem as far until i get out of space. The thing now is that i made a lot of changes and configurations that took me a lot of time. How
[10:15] <panosru>  can i just clone this system to my second ext3 hard drive?I have installed EXT2FDS on vista and i can read/write on my linux ext3 hard drive (that with the OS on it) if i take the files and copy/paste them to my second hard drive (the one with ext3 format) through vista, will it work?
[10:15] <TU> i just don't understand how it gets screwed up
[10:15] <TU> i think it is a bug in either dnsmasq or dhclient
[10:15] <xtknight> proxosi, does it work?
[10:16] <proxosi> xtknight what the video for rmvb?
[10:16] <xtknight> proxosi, ya
[10:16] <cox377> hey all
[10:16] <floppyears> anybody ? how can I make it so that ubuntu always uses an specific static ip address ?
[10:16] <[nrx] > TU, possibly though i would have thought that when running on DHCP it should set it automagically for you
[10:16] <cox377> can anyone tell me why when i run this
[10:16] <cox377> sudo apache2-ssl-certificate -days 365
[10:16] <cox377> i get this
[10:16] <cox377> sudo: apache2-ssl-certificate: command not found
[10:16] <proxosi> nope
[10:17] <TU> [nrx] : thats the problem. it should it dosn't.
[10:17] <main2> hmmmmm i turned on 'traditional ifup' method, and now my /etc/network/interfaces is gone
[10:17] <Pollywog> I do not see any RCS tools related to fwbuilder, are they a separate package?
[10:17] <main2> is that normal?
[10:17] <xtknight> proxosi, sudo apt-get install w32codecs mplayer
[10:17] <[nrx] > TU, i presume you have it set to DHCP everywhere.. including for dns servers?
[10:17] <crowley1028> Hey, i have 2 hard drives, one with W!Ndows and one with ubuntu.  Sound works fine on W!Ndows but only works once in a great while on linux.

[10:25] <dazrour> if you run sudo iwconfig what does it say
[10:25] <theacolyte> kitche: It says it will, but since I put in the wrong password awhile ago, I can't get it to reinstall and create the DB
[10:25] <theacolyte> it's cached someplace

[10:28] <dazrour> sudo kwifimanager should have the wifi card enabled now just needs the settings filled in and you should be good to go

[10:30] <kane77> a strange thing started happening.. my gnome stops responding - clicking with mouse doesn't work.. when I switch desktop it works again. What might be the cause??
[10:30] <Ignite> I prefer Bazaar-NG.
[10:31] <Ignite> kane77, can you be more specific?
[10:32] <willdev> how do i install drivers for the 8600GT?
[10:32] <kane77> Ignite, well after I switch between desktops couple of times it responds normally...
[10:32] <Thorsten11> Thanks for the link bingodeville i'll check it out
[10:32] <kritzstapf> im setting up a little server for home use, should i still install feisty or use gutsy?
[10:32] <reppel> Hi, how do i set the default governor to "conservative" instead of "ondemand" ?
[10:32] <t0ny-p40> I've tried everything I can think of and php still wont work...
[10:32] <bingodeville> Thorsten11: np
[10:33] <kbrooks> kritzstapf, feisty
[10:33] <Thorsten11> Only issue i have as well is i'm using wpa which i have working on my media server using a wmp54g pci card
[10:33] <kane77> Ignite, when the mouse doesn't work it doesn't even display the "hover" effects in gdm (when you hover over window in window list)
[10:33] <main2> can i use ifup with wpa_supplicant?
[10:33] <Ignite> kane77, are you running any beta/alpha software?
[10:33] <main2> a good like / or a specific section in a man page would be highly appreciated :-))
[10:34] <panosru> Some games that i installed from wine require direct X :(  is it possible to support it somehow?
[10:34] <kritzstapf> kbrooks: okay
[10:34] <rediz_> dazrour its up and running:)
[10:34] <kane77> Ignite, i don't think so.. it's feisty and I'm not using compiz/beryl
[10:34] <runemaste644> Wow... Im surprised how an IRC chat can hold 1240 people!
[10:34] <dazrour> spot on, glad i could help
[10:34] <BarryToeman> t0ny-p40: did you check out this page? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[10:34] <runemaste644> i think directx does in wine
[10:34] <LjL> runemaste644: with some trouble
[10:35] <Evanlec> panosru, directx should be supported in wine
[10:35] <Ignite> kane77, did you make any changes before the problem appeared?
[10:35] <panosru> xm.. it requires dX 9
[10:35] <panosru> i think wine has older version :
[10:35] <panosru> :/
[10:35] <Otacon22> My other pc don't see yet the network card, ifconfig say that there is only the lookpback.
[10:35] <Otacon22> I resetter bios
[10:36] <Otacon22> i changed the card
[10:36] <Otacon22> i changed the slot
[10:36] <Otacon22> i think it is a software problem
[10:36] <kane77> Ignite, no, I wasn't using ubuntu quite a while and now I came back and this is happening..
[10:36] <Ignite> kane77, did you install updates?
[10:36] <runemaste644> Has anyone been messin with your computer?
[10:36] <kane77> Ignite, yes there was plenty of them...
[10:37] <rediz_> dazrour kwifi is seeing it just no network to jump on. thnkz m8:) been at it for days. getting the hang of it now
[10:37] <panosru> i installed wine through repos, maybe there is an old version of wine and i need to update it with a new version.. how can i check my version ?
[10:37] <voidlogic> Hey everyone, I want to dist-updated from 7.04 to 7.10 (I know its beta), how do I do that?
[10:37] <kane77> Ignite, when I think about it it might've been updates that messed up my laptop as well...
[10:37] <vader1102> voidlogic, why, it may still break things right now.....
[10:37] <dazrour> if it wasnt for IRC and forums i wouldnt know how to day anything
[10:38] <t0ny-p40> BarryToeman, thanks, I just put the text from php5.load/conf into my apache2.conf
[10:38] <Evanlec> !uptime

[10:38] <Ignite> kane77, it's possible that one of them introduced a bug that unfortunately effects you. You might want to check for a bug on launchpad.net that is identical to your problem, if not you could submit one.
[10:38] <Pollywog> does anyone know what RCS tools I need to use fwbuilder?
[10:38] <voidlogic> i tried sudo update-manager -d
[10:38] <voidlogic> but that did not prompt to upgrade
[10:38] <BlkGhost> is there a better partitioning software then gparted ?
[10:38] <rediz_> same ear. i LOVE linux
[10:39] <runemaste644> when i tried to do !uptime it crashed Pidgin
[10:39] <Srixon> I am unable to install ndiswrapper...

[10:39] <vader1102> rediz_, so do I lol, I do have a windows partition, but only use it when I have to support an windows client
[10:39] <hacknslash> BlkGhost: qtparted is slightly nicer
[10:39] <runemaste644> it works
[10:39] <kane77> Ignite, now it happened again.. I had to use ctrl+alt+left/right to switch between two workspaces couple of times...
[10:39] <voidlogic>  Hey everyone, I want to dist-updated from 7.04 to 7.10 (I know its beta), how do I do that?  i tried sudo update-manager -d but it didn't do anything
[10:40] <RoyVanWinkle> I installed Banshee and it seems to work well, but when I try to burn a CD, it tells me to insert a disk. When a disk is inserted, notification pops up, so Ubuntu sees the CD, but I can't find how to tell Banshee where to find the blank.
[10:40] <MartinW> I keep on getting these http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/37831/ errors, I added a new sources.list file but it still doesn't work. I tried the instructions in the new sources.list file but can't fine the key for the source which it says is invalid. Please help.
[10:40] <BlkGhost> does it work better cause I can format the drive but I'm having issue copyng info to the drive
[10:40] <runemaste644> you do some fancy stuff and apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:40] <Kworth> is there an command vor svn that shows me all conflicts ?
[10:41] <rediz_> vader1102. same here. down with micro$oft
[10:41] <sun_> hi can anyone tell me how to modify sources.list so i can get a fast xubuntu mirror.  im in new jersey/new york area.
[10:41] <vader1102> agreed rediz_
[10:41] <Srixon> Can anyone help me install ndsiwrapper? im having alot of problems and ive read through the readme
[10:41] <dazrour>  i tried to 'upgrade to 7.10 but it broke everything so opted for a clean install on a second partition much easeier

[10:41] <kane77> Ignite, I'm on it
[10:42] <Ignite> kane77, brilliant. :)
[10:42] <Pollywog> Windows is good for some things, like games that only run in Windows
[10:42] <Srixon> use Wine
[10:42] <MartinW> Should I type apt-get dist-upgrade? Or somebody else?
[10:42] <Pelo> runemaste644, we don'T trash windows in here,  it's a waste of effort
[10:42] <Srixon> or Cedega
[10:42] <Pollywog> WINE and Cedega do not support the games I play
[10:42] <Pollywog> or I would use them
[10:42] <runemaste644> Pollywog: they are emulators, not the real thing
[10:43] <Pollywog> yes I know
[10:43] <runemaste644> try windoze in VBox
[10:43] <MartinW> Wine is not a emulator.
[10:43] <runemaste644> it is
[10:43] <Pollywog> I will have to get a PS2
[10:43] <Kworth> is there an command vor svn that shows me all conflicts ?
[10:43] <marx2k_> "man svn" ?
[10:43] <koer> hello , i woudl like to know how i could change the window setting to make new windows appear in front , i running beryl
[10:43] <rediz_> ive just reinstalled 6.6 dapper. broke it with enlightenment
[10:43] <MartinW> W(Win)I(s)N(ot)(an)E(mulator) was the origanal name
[10:44] <voidlogic> what does "current dist not found in meta-release file' mean when I run update-manager -d
[10:44] <dfletcher> as long as it translates the dx calls to opengl it could be a fluffy bunny for all I care... my games do (mostly) work ;)
[10:44] <dazrour> now you get to fix it again rediz  - more fun!
[10:44] <TU> okay
[10:44] <Discerer> if I have a disk of 1 partition with xp in it, is it possible to just chop off a few pieces and create swap and etx3 on that without ruining my xp installation?
[10:44] <TU> this is a SERIOUS problem
[10:45] <TU> there is actually something wrong with ubuntu on this one
[10:45] <TU> i am 100% sure.
[10:45] <hacknslash> Discerer: yes it is
[10:45] <dazrour> TU?
[10:45] <hacknslash> but it will take a while to do
[10:45] <Pelo> Discerer, yes it is , you can use gparted from the live cd and the installer itself will give you the oportunity when the time comes
[10:45] <Discerer> hacknslash can you point me in the right direction? or do I do that in the installer?
[10:45] <Discerer> ok thanks Pelo
[10:46] <[doors] > Hi ... does somebody know if there's a way of passing layout parameters to the X-Server / GDM  from GRUB?
[10:46] <Discerer> since the xp installation isn't fragmented at all it shouldn't be too hard right?
[10:46] <hacknslash> Discerer: firstly back up everything
[10:46] <Discerer> well it's all fresh hacknslash :)
[10:46] <hacknslash> Discerer: then resize the partition
[10:47] <Pelo> Discerer, it woul still be a good idea to backup the important stuff and defrag before doing anything
[10:47] <hacknslash> Discerer: then install into the free space
[10:47] <runemaste644> I would want to get windows off my HDD painfully >:-D
[10:47] <GIn> does any one have photoshop installed on Feisty?
[10:47] <runemaste644> no
[10:47] <koer> how can i make ew windows appear in front and not in the back of the actual window?
[10:47] <runemaste644> Photoshop is cool though
[10:48] <sinizzl> hi

[10:48] <runemaste644> there is a scan thing
[10:48] <sinizzl> i know
[10:48] <soundray> koer: you can configure that in gconf-editor
[10:48] <runemaste644> i dont remember it tho
[10:48] <sinizzl> but how's it called ?
[10:49] <Ax-Ax> how do i kill kopete from konsole?
[10:49] <velko> [doors] , there is no way to do this
[10:49] <koer> gconf-editor
[10:49] <runemaste644> is the window open?
[10:49] <Pelo> Ax-Ax, sudo killall -0 kopete
[10:49] <sinizzl>  xmodmap -e "keycode 108 = P xmodmap -e "keycode 108 = P xmodmap -e "keycode 108 = P xmodmap -e "keycode 108 = P xmodmap -e "keycode 108 = P/win 6

[10:50] <BlkGhost> How do I switch to root ? while in Ubuntu ?
[10:50] <soundray> koer: oops. It seems you can't, after all.
[10:50] <runemaste644> my way is safer
[10:50] <Jowi> BlkGhost, sudo -i
[10:50] <koer> ?
[10:50] <runemaste644> sudo -i
[10:50] <runemaste644> or
[10:50] <koer> im at the menu searching :D
[10:50] <runemaste644> sudo nautilus
[10:50] <BlkGhost> from a terminal window ?
[10:50] <[doors] > velko: so i guess i'll just have to do a console login, then do a startx -layout dualhead / startx -layout laptopDisplay ?
[10:50] <runemaste644> for a root file browser
[10:50] <Jowi> koer, which window manager are you using?
[10:50] <Pelo> runemaste644,  when running gui apps as root use gksu not sudo
[10:50] <koer> .. beryl , emerald
[10:50] <Jowi> runemaste644, no. gksudo for graphical apps
[10:51] <runemaste644> sudo nautilus works fine for me tho...
[10:51] <SeveredCross> Anyone know how to re-run the OS detection that Ubiquity does?
[10:51] <SeveredCross> Or if it's possible to do so at all?
[10:51] <willdev> hey guys
[10:51] <Jowi> koer, general settings -> set "steal window focus" (it goes by another loooong name but I don't remember it)  to "None"
[10:51] <willdev> im following this guide: http://www.robdian.co.uk/content/view/56/
[10:51] <willdev> when i get to sudo sh NV
[10:51] <willdev> it gives a error
[10:51] <willdev> that it cant open NV
[10:52] <SeveredCross> I just added a Windoze partition (had to for school :-\) and was wondering if I could just repeat that autodetection or if I had to manually add it to menu.lst
[10:52] <Jowi> koer, it is not in gconf-editor, right click on the red diamond and select settings.
[10:52] <velko> [doors] , i don't know what you are talking about. but you can't pass parameter from grub to x/gdm whatever. grub does not invoke x. it runs the kernel and the kernel runs init (or upstart). they invoke x at a certain runlevel
[10:52] <SeveredCross> willdev: try sudo sh nv?
[10:52] <Pelo> !grub | SeveredCross
[10:52] <ubotu> SeveredCross: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:52] <willdev> thats what im doing SeveredCross
[10:52] <runemaste644> gconf-editor = regedit
[10:52] <SeveredCross> Pelo: I've already bloody recovered it.
[10:52] <runemaste644> sort of
[10:52] <Pelo> !enter | willdev
[10:52] <ubotu> willdev: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:52] <SeveredCross> I just need to know if there's any way to repeat OS autodetection.
[10:52] <SeveredCross> But whatev.
[10:53] <willdev> Pelo: ok sorry, but can ya help?
[10:53] <Pelo> SeveredCross, ok , you can'T but I can tell you the lines to add to menu.lst to include windows in the list
[10:53] <Pelo> willdev,  sorry no , but if you restate your issue without all the linebreaks I,m sure someone will be able to at least read it
[10:53] <koer> okay, beryl settings , general options , main ?
[10:54] <arialth> hey, i have a noob question: where can I find the version of ubuntu i am running, and also the verison of kde? I cant seem to find it in ubuntu
[10:54] <Jowi> koer, I think it is in general settings and perhaps it is called "aggressiveness for focus stealing" or something like that...
[10:54] <Jowi> koer, yes
[10:54] <soundray> arialth: cat /etc/lsb-release
[10:54] <kitche> !version | arialth for kde look at it's about
[10:54] <ubotu> arialth for kde look at it's about: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[10:54] <soundray> arialth: for KDE, there should be an "About" window somewhere
[10:54] <willdev> (retry) ok guys, when i follow this guide http://www.robdian.co.uk/content/view/56/ and get to "sudo sh NV" it says "cant open NV"
[10:55] <arialth> k thankyou. I am having a kde problem and i just needed to know my version numbers
[10:55] <PKdoR> what themes do i have to use for ubuntu=compiz fussion?
[10:55] <koer> jowi , there is a part where it says "focus and raise"
[10:55] <gerro> PKdoR: emerald themes
[10:55] <Invisionfree> .
[10:56] <Evanlec> arialth, u got about 5 different ways to find out now lol
[10:56] <Jowi> koer, no not there. higher up. if you don't find it i will log into beryl. but if you can find it yourself it is better....
[10:56] <BlkGhost> QTparted wants me to be in root to run correctly . How do I switch over to root ?
[10:56] <BlkGhost> ls
[10:56] <kitche> !sudo Blackghost,
[10:56] <Evanlec> BlkGhost, !root
[10:57] <kitche> !sudo | Blackghost
[10:57] <[doors] > velko: what I want to accomplish is GDM  to launch the X-Server only on my laptop display or on a dual-head setup (laptop display + external display) depending on a selection i make from GRUB
[10:57] <Jowi> willdev, it say "sudo sh NV (PRESS TAB TO GET THE REST)" (did you press TAB?)
[10:57] <ubotu> Blackghost: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:57] <Evanlec> !root | Blackghost
[10:57] <ubotu> Blackghost: 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
[10:57] <koer> advanced....
[10:57] <koer> hmm
[10:57] <BlkGhost> ty
[10:57] <willdev> Jowi: yeah but nothing hapend
[10:57] <Jowi> koer, ok, wait. brb
[10:57] <koer> heeh sorry im a bit of a noob :P
[10:58] <thinman1189> Hello everyone. Sorry to bother you all with such a trivial question but I've never had good luck with this program. does anyone know the commands for clamav or where i could find a list?
[10:58] <runemaste644> you can actually run as root if you change the pass in users & groups
[10:58] <Evanlec> thinman1189, man clamav ?
[10:58] <runemaste644> if you are feeling a bit evil that day
[10:59] <Pelo> !root | runemaste644  learn the party line please
[10:59] <ubotu> runemaste644  learn the party line please: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password.

[10:59] <willdev> whats paste within a command line?
[10:59] <Pain> does anybody here use openbox?
[10:59] <vader1102> ctrl + V
[10:59] <kitche> willdev, ctrl-v I believe but I usually just middle click
[10:59] <Jowi> willdev, middle mouse click works
[10:59] <PKdoR> any good site for compiz fussion themes?
[11:00] <SeveredCross> Ctrl-Shift-V is in gnome-terminal
[11:00] <Pelo> PKdoR,  ask the lovely ppl in #compiz-fusion
[11:00] <Jowi> General Options -> Main -> Level of Focus Stealing Prevention = None
[11:00] <runemaste644> You can't guess it...
[11:00] <gerro> PKdoR: dunno try googling
[11:00] <PKdoR> and possibli a howto install themes for compiz fussion
[11:00] <Pelo> PKdoR,  ask the lovely ppl in #compiz-fusion
[11:00] <runemaste644> ...but you can change it to something desirable
[11:00] <gerro> PKdoR: it uses emerald for themes
[11:00] <thinman1189> evanlec: never been particularly happy with it. if you have a better suggestion then i'm all ears. i normally wouldn't use an AV program for linux but i'm dual booting with a data drive to go in between and while i have AV on my windows i still want to be careful with what i put on it and what i send to others.
[11:00] <arialth> Evanlec: yeah, now to see if i can get my kde question answered
[11:00] <Evanlec> PKdoR, you want to use emerald for transparent themes
[11:01] <koer> thx jowi !!!!!!! you saved me !!!!!
[11:01] <koer> cheerz man !!!
[11:01] <Jowi> koer, you're welcome
[11:01] <GEPI> hi
[11:01] <Evanlec> thinman1189, what are you asking about?
[11:01] <hacknslash> GEPI: hi
[11:02] <arialth> is it okay if i asked my question here? It might pertain to ubuntu, also
[11:02] <thinman1189> evanlec: I'm looking for a list of, even just basic, commands for clamav such as update and scan.
[11:02] <Pelo> arialth, just ask
[11:02] <runemaste644> By default i did not have access to tape drives!!!
[11:02] <arialth> alright here goes:
[11:02] <arialth> My problem is this: I installed KDE a while back to get away from gnome. it ran fine for a short time, then the desktop environment itself began to run very slow. It takes a long time for the start menu to appear, and for it to list further submenus, and some  programs, like OOo's impress slide show view, have stopped working completely
[11:02] <koer> and another thing , my synaptic is messed up: i cloed an installation while on process and now it wont open
[11:02] <arialth>  I am running Ubuntu 7.04 and KDE 3.5.6
[11:02] <Evanlec> !antivirus | thinman1189

[11:03] <soothsayer> arialth: What is your disk usage?
[11:03] <arialth> Pelo: sorry bout that
[11:03] <gordonjcp> thinman1189: even then you don't really need a virus scanner, but it's nice to clean things up for your users
[11:04] <marko> Hello...I need help (if it is possible) with new inserted disc in computer....
[11:04] <soundray> arialth: try creating a new user, and see if KDE is snappy when you log in as that. If it is, you might want to delete your $HOME/.kde/ , but you'll have to start over with your KDE configurations.
[11:04] <Pelo> arialth, it's very hard to tell what migth be slowing down your system,  I suggest you check what you have runniing in the background and see if you can'T get rid of some stuff
[11:04] <arialth> disk usage: 2 120 gb drives, ubuntu is located on sdb3, and has about 33 gb left free

[11:04] <thinman1189> gordonjcp: but can't even if the viruses doesn't infect my ubuntu drive if i then transfer it to my windows it would still work there, would it not? would it simply be better to rely on windows AV programs and not have one on ubuntu?
[11:05] <soothsayer> arialth: Do you have heavy disk or CPU activity?
[11:05] <arialth> 1 second
[11:05] <runemaste644> IE is the worst browser known to man
[11:05] <Pelo> arialth,  if you prefer running kde , clean installing kubuntu might be a good idea

[11:06] <runemaste644> wats mosaic
[11:06] <gordonjcp> thinman1189: do you mean scanning your Windows drive for viruses from Ubuntu?
[11:06] <soundray> koer: sudo apt-get -f install

[11:07] <runemaste644> Safari is the fastest browser
[11:07] <Armor_Azrael> gordonjcp: kdirstat is genearlly a more userfriendly solution to that kind of thign
[11:07] <koer> i have virtualbox package here
[11:07] <Pelo> rediz_, acualy it's pretty obvious from the look of the desktop,  but do you have a log of applications with names beginning in K ?
[11:07] <thinman1189> gordonjcp: I mean to scan my ubuntu drive for viruses so that if I were to send an email or transfer something to my windows drive that a windows virus wouldn't infect them.
[11:07] <arialth> soundray: that is a good idea. It would not be too hard to re set all my settings. I will try it later
[11:08] <soundray> koer: so do a 'sudo dpkg -i virtualbox_[version] .deb'

[11:12] <PKdoR> th sir
[11:12] <Discerer> ok Pelo
[11:12] <gordonjcp> thinman1189: it's not likely to happen, but to be honest I'd just let the Windows virus scanner do the work there
[11:12] <marko> Pelo, yes..but wait a moment,because I'am new in linux

[11:15] <Pelo> marko,  no you don'T need to restart the comp
[11:15] <Armor_Azrael> speps: First, why do you want i.e.? If you're not a web developer, use Firefox, Epiphany, or Konqueror, they work much better.
[11:15] <koer> how do i accept a lincence terms in terminal ?
[11:15] <kane77> can I filter somehow out those join/leave announcements in xchat??
[11:15] <arialth> soundray: I made a new user, and it worked perfectly! so i should just delete ~/.kde?
[11:15] <BinaryFu> If anyone has a minute, I could use some help with a cli question.
[11:15] <arialth> soundray: is there any other way to solve the problem?
[11:15] <kane77> BinaryFu, ask
[11:15] <Pelo> kane77, right click on the channel tab chck the optjions in there
[11:15] <hacknslash> BinaryFu: ask away

[11:16] <null> Question:  I can't start dhcp3-server because it fails with "subnet not found," "range not found," "default-lease-time" not found, even though /etc/default/dhcp3-server is properly configured.  Any ideas?
[11:16] <caveman24> thanks
[11:16] <speps> Armor_Azrael: I use firefox...yes is for web developing...so ...help
[11:16] <Armor_Azrael> speps: 2.) If you are a web developer and need to test your site in ie, the best place to ask about how to use it is #winehq, where they make the program that allows ies4linux to work. They have much more experience with that than you'll find people here have
[11:16] <kane77> Pelo, wow.. :) I'm ashamed :)
[11:16] <soundray> arialth: well, you could rename $HOME/.kde to $HOME/kde-configbackup
[11:16] <thinman1189> gordonjcp: ok, thanks.
[11:16] <Pelo> kane77,  you should be
[11:16] <Armor_Azrael> speps: errr nvm
[11:16] <arialth> soundray: yes, but why is it responding slowly in the first place?
[11:16] <Armor_Azrael> speps: Just realized #winehq stopped helping with that
[11:16] <soundray> arialth: but it's probably better to just redo your settings. Don't do this while KDE is running btw.
[11:16] <Armor_Azrael> One moment, I'll test out what the current procedure is on my setup
[11:16] <arialth> so, from gnome or something?
[11:17] <Pelo> marko,   type here the command you are using ?
[11:17] <koer> hell yeah !!!! syanptic works !!!!
[11:17] <koer> thx thx thx !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[11:17] <BinaryFu> Thanks, the question is this: I have a backup drive that has my files in it. I have a duplicate folder on my main drive. I like to update the backup drive from time to time, but the files are getting rather numerous. Is there a way to cp with an option to tell it to only copy files that are newer (updated versions) or don't exist at all (new files) to the backup?
[11:17] <soundray> arialth: or from the text console (Ctrl-Alt-F2)
[11:17] <Evanlec> lol koer of course it works ;p
[11:17] <speps> Armor_Azrael: maybe something just 4 ie4linux?
[11:17] <arialth> soundray: but will that kill kde when i use it? if so, how do i restart kde from console?
[11:18] <Armor_Azrael> speps: I don't think they have their own dev channel
[11:18] <kane77> BinaryFu, I believe you can use rsync for that...
[11:18] <kane77> !rsync
[11:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rsync - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:18] <marko> Pelo, command : sudo chmod 755 /media/disk
[11:18] <soundray> arialth: just log out of KDE, then switch to console and do the surgery, then log into KDE again.
[11:18] <velko> BinaryFu, cp -u
[11:18] <arialth> alright...
[11:18] <soundray> arialth: Ctrl-Alt-F7 takes you back to the login after the text console.
[11:18] <soundray> arialth: as for the causes, it's hard to tell from here.
[11:19] <[nrx] > BinaryFu: try cp -u
[11:19] <Pelo> marko, try this then   sudo chown /media/disk  username:username
[11:19] <[nrx] > oh velko lol
[11:19] <BinaryFu> velko: So I can do cp -Ru Foldername Destination
[11:19] <arialth> soundray: I was afraid i got HACKED or something...
[11:19] <velko> BinaryFu, yes
[11:19] <BinaryFu> velko: Thank you.
[11:19] <vader1102> that was odd, changed one setting..... poof closed all open apps.
[11:19] <dane2> hrmm, little did I know that X-chat doesn't have a 'server -m' function :-\

[11:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about anything. - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:20] <marko> Pelo it says invalid user
[11:20] <Evanlec> !firewall | arialth
[11:20] <ubotu> arialth: 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).
[11:20] <tkp> hi
[11:20] <marko> but why?

[11:20] <Pelo> marko,  are you sure this is a ext3 partiton ? what was used to format it ?
[11:20] <tkp>  ping security.ubuntu.com is so tempremental

[11:21] <HAL> hi
[11:21] <tkp> it's fine from the rest of my network
[11:21] <arialth> soundray: I ran a port scan, and I have about 5 tcp connections on "listen"...
[11:21] <tkp> any ideas why that may be?

[11:21] <dane2> when I install programs via the Add/Remove or synaptic, why do some programs get added to the Applications list, and some don;t?
[11:21] <BinaryFu> LoL, I probably should use -v with that so I can see what's being updated ><
[11:21] <soundray> arialth: did you run the portscan on the local machine? On the local network?
[11:21] <gibbster> Hi Guys. I have a rather weird question. It is possible to install ubuntu without a monitor: I.e. start up the computer with the cd in, let it boot off of that, and direct the rest of the installation via ssh?
[11:21] <velko> runemaste644, please experiment with ubotu like this "/msg ubotu WHATEVER"
[11:21] <Pelo> marko,  very odd,   try sudo chown user:user /media/disk , might be the correct syntax
[11:22] <arialth> i typed 127.0.0.1
[11:22] <arialth> soundray: no place like 127.0.0.1
[11:22] <BinaryFu> velko: It worked perfectly, thank you very much! I knew there had to be an option for it!
[11:22] <HAL> ok .. i go cya
[11:23] <BlkGhost> Pelo or Marko whats the issue cause it sounds like the same one I'm having ?
[11:23] <EliasAmaral> gibbster, i don't know the standard way to do this, but the non-standard one is of course creating a install cd that also starts a ssh daemon
[11:23] <arialth> soundray: is that a bad thing?
[11:23] <soundray> gibbster: I don't think the install CDs run sshd
[11:23] <Pelo> BlkGhost,  he's can'T paste to a ext3 partition
[11:23] <BlkGhost> yeah same here
[11:23] <marko> Pelo naw I was able to create folders, but paste was unabled
[11:23] <EliasAmaral> gibbster, i think ubuntu has facilities to create a cd installer with non-standard configuration...
[11:24] <BlkGhost> I partionted it with gedit
[11:24] <soundray> arialth: you're only vulnerable if someone else can attack you. They'd have to get past your router etc..
[11:24] <BlkGhost> formated it to ext3
[11:24] <BlkGhost> and I can't put data on it or change the name
[11:24] <Pelo> marko, are you sure you had something to paste then ? maybe you didn'T copy correctly
[11:24] <gibbster> EliasAmaral: ooh. that sounds cool. do you happen to have a link?
[11:24] <soundray> gibbster: lots of links here:
[11:24] <soundray> !install | gibbster

[11:25] <Evanlec> !automate

[11:28] <velko> gibbster, if the remote machine is already runnung linux you can install ubuntu this way http://www.underhanded.org/papers/debian-conversion/remotedeb.html
[11:28] <gordonjcp> hohoho laugh that one off
[11:28] <LjL> SuperLag: what?
[11:28] <arialth> i just wish i knew why kde has started to run slow. Just knowing how to fix it is not gratifying enough
[11:28] <[nrx] > gordonjcp: lol
[11:29] <gordonjcp> arialth: work back from what you did to fix it
[11:29] <[nrx] > i take it the ops command summons the ops then?
[11:29] <soundray> arialth: if it happens again, use top in konsole to see what your CPU is spending time doing
[11:29] <LjL> [nrx] , yes. don't use it unless in an channel emergency
[11:29] <__mad> when the 7.10 version will be out?
[11:29] <ssdroid> anyone in here know how to get Linux/Ubuntu working with Intel's ICH9 SATA controller
[11:29] <[nrx] > LjL: k :)
[11:29] <marko> Pelo another question, if it is possible....I'am a ubuntu user and in on the web listed the commands like chown and what that minds ???
[11:29] <gordonjcp> [nrx] : in the same sort of way that you can summon the Elder Gods, yes
[11:29] <SuperLag> LjL: what you told runemaste644 not to do
[11:29] <devioustree> hey all. just tried installing ubuntu there and it crashes on the screen where it's trying to import settings from a profile
[11:29] <[nrx] > gordonjcp: lol
[11:29] <arialth> soundray: top lists processes correct?
[11:29] <SuperLag> arialth: yes
[11:29] <soundray> arialth: yes, and it updates every few seconds
[11:29] <Henrik1> how do I set the LD_PRELOAD variable in gnome ? I have tried /etc/environment but it doesn't seem to be picked up
[11:29] <gordonjcp> [nrx] : it's surprisingly easy to do, but you want to *really make sure* it's what you want first
[11:29] <fiyawerx> anyne know what would cause name resolution to stop working?
[11:30] <fiyawerx> resolv.conf has the correct nameservers, i can even ping them
[11:30] <LjL> SuperLag: it highlights every channel op. some of them even have warning sounds about it. it's not nice to rush away from whatever you're doing just to find out it was merely someone "having fun"
[11:30] <arialth> so, is it like the process monitor? that is what i use normally
[11:30] <SuperLag> LjL: oh crap
[11:30] <soundray> arialth: probably, I don't know  KDE too well
[11:30] <arialth> soundray: I use the gnome one :)
[11:30] <Ahadiel> !wifidocs
[11:30] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:31] <gordonjcp> SuperLag: furthermore some people in here have their clients set up to highlight on an !ops even if they're not an op
[11:31] <Pelo> marko,  try this tutorial http://www.linuxcommand.org/index.php
[11:31] <SuperLag> gordonjcp: yeah, forgot about highlighting...
[11:31] <Jowi> fiyawerx, see if your ISP have another set for you to try. Perhaps they are not up-to-date or something...
[11:31] <marko> Pelo thx !!!
[11:31] <SuperLag> gordonjcp: my brain is fried :)
[11:31] <arialth> soundray: I am sitting at about 10% usage
[11:31] <fiyawerx> jowi, i'musing open dns, my isp's, and 4.2.2.2
[11:31] <fiyawerx> it was working until i upgraded and rebooted heh
[11:31] <arialth> like i said, most programs run honkey-dory, but my menu is unhappy
[11:31] <Pelo> marko, that,s not all of them , just a few basics you can google for more links
[11:32] <marko> Pelo ok
[11:32] <Jowi> fiyawerx, ipv6 problem?
[11:32] <soundray> arialth: are you playing music or something?
[11:32] <fiyawerx> jowi: oh, maybe, how do i tell? Do i need to do something to add back in older ipv stuff?
[11:32] <arialth> soundray: I have firefox, shell, and gaim running
[11:32] <[nrx] > ;o
[11:32] <Jowi> !ipv6 | fiyawerx
[11:32] <ubotu> fiyawerx: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[11:32] <fiyawerx> Jowi: thank you :)
[11:32] <Arthur> Hello all.
[11:32] <Jowi> fiyawerx, thank me if it works.
[11:32] <devioustree> Hey Arthur!
[11:33] <[nrx] > my connection is well dodgy tonight
[11:33] <Arthur> Could anyone suggest a suitable channel for Ubuntu support?
[11:33] <ssdroid> Henrik1 Can you use LD_PRELOAD in you .bashrc? I need to try that
[11:33] <jrib> Arthur: hi, you're in it :)
[11:33] <muzik> lol
[11:33] <Pelo> Arthur,  you are here
[11:33] <PKdoR> what the difference between ubuntu and xubuntu?
[11:33] <Arthur> Alright then. Wonderful! My, but it's busy though.
[11:33] <soundray> arialth: none of those should load your CPU like that, unless you have animations on web pages or something like that.
[11:33] <Pelo> PKdoR,  gnome and xfce
[11:33] <jrib> PKdoR: ubuntu uses the GNOME desktop by default while xubuntu uses the XFCE desktop by default
[11:33] <jtt> !xubuntu
[11:33] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[11:33] <Pelo> Arthur,  just jump right in
[11:34] <Arthur> I'm having troubleswith two displays.
[11:34] <strongarm> which pkg can I use to extract & manage my photos form sony cybershot dsc-t100
[11:34] <muzik> Arthur: just ask away what you would like to know/help with
[11:34] <Pelo> !dualhead | Arthur
[11:34] <ubotu> Arthur: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[11:34] <arialth> soundray: I thought so... but the only things that i couldnt see on the process list would be rootkits...
[11:34] <LjL> Henrik1: erm, there is something here http://www.math.uni-leipzig.de/~hellmund/sunray.shtml - can't guarantee it's relevant to ubuntu, search for "astonished" in the page anyway
[11:34] <Arthur> That's for two videocards in one PC? I'll try it immediately. Thankyou.
[11:34] <soundray> arialth: hmm, okay, maybe you do want to reinstall your system.
[11:34] <arialth> soundray: i am at the yahoo mail page (which is interactive) and another site with static pictures
[11:35] <Jowi> strongarm, I have a dsc-T1 and does not use any app in particular. I simply copy the photo folder from the camera.
[11:35] <[nrx] > can anyone suggest a reason why my gnome wont work? KDE works fine, but gnome has since stopped worked after I tried to get compiz working. I enabled the ati restricted drivers.. all was fine (but KDE and GNome wouldn't shutdown/logoff properly) so i removed the restricted drivers and now KDE is fine but GNome just starts with a blank, white screen and wont do anything, even after trying to restart x
[11:35] <[nrx] > </bible>
[11:35] <jtt> strongarm, digikam i believe
[11:35] <Henrik1> LjL, I have tried that but it fails with a "can't find ...." possibly because there are 2 so files
[11:36] <Pelo> later folks
[11:36] <arialth> [nrx] : The first thing i would try is to reinstall gnome...
[11:36] <LjL> Henrik1: they ought to be separated by colons
[11:36] <[nrx] > arialth: i thought of that too, however it wont tell me what the problem was/is - which is what i'd rather know
[11:36] <devioustree> sorry to ask again but does anyone know why the Ubuntu installation crashes when it gets to the installation screen were it's trying to import profiles?
[11:36] <devioustree> or anyway that I can skip that
[11:37] <arialth> [nrx] : oh, i dunno that much... isnt there some kind of system log that would tell one what happened?
[11:37] <PKdoR> so then ubuntu=gnome, Xubuntu=Xfce, and kubuntu=KDB right?
[11:37] <PurpleSquare> has anyone heard about a file type called "mkv" ?
[11:37] <PurpleSquare> (scuze my english)
[11:37] <soundray> [nrx] : can you switch to a text console with Ctrl-Alt-F2 when you're at the white screen?
[11:37] <PKdoR> PurpleSquare: yes
[11:38] <RichiH> !find  Stormbaan
[11:38] <Henrik1> LjL, with colon :-) silly me.... It was without in ld.so.preload so I just copied
[11:38] <ubotu> Package/file stormbaan does not exist in feisty
[11:38] <soundray> PurpleSquare: Matroska video stream?
[11:38] <PKdoR> PurpleSquare: its a multimedia format container
[11:38] <velko> PurpleSquare, yes. it's a modern multimedia container format called "matroska"
[11:38] <LjL> Henrik1: variables usually follow that syntax, same with $PATH and others
[11:38] <PurpleSquare> PKdoR, yeah that's it
[11:38] <[nrx] > soundray: no, not at all
[11:38] <[nrx] > soundray: the only way i can get out of it is actually by switching the laptop off and back on again
[11:38] <PurpleSquare> PKdoR, is there an open source software which can read it ?
[11:38] <RichiH> does ubotu search substrings of package names?
[11:39] <PKdoR> PurpleSquare:  i think vlc player
[11:39] <soundray> [nrx] : do you log in with gdm or kdm?
[11:39] <[nrx] > soundray: kdm
[11:39] <arialth> soundray: the most taxing programs, according to top, are gaim, Xorg, kicker, kwlan
[11:39] <[nrx] > soundray: it was all working previously to me starting to mess with restricted drivers and compiz
[11:39] <PurpleSquare> PKdoR, ok thx ^^
[11:40] <PKdoR> PurpleSquare: its usually used for anime video
[11:40] <PurpleSquare> PKdoR, yes as i'm discovering it
[11:41] <soundray> [nrx] : you could create a new user and see if that gets stuck at gnome, too. If it does, your problem is system-wide. If it isn't, it's your user config that's wrong.
[11:41] <[nrx] > soundray: if it is the user config that's wrong, can you give me some things to check?
[11:41] <soundray> [nrx] : you could also look at $HOME/.xsession-errors after the reboot to see if that holds any hints
[11:42] <[nrx] > soundray: ok
[11:42] <[nrx] > soundray: thanks
[11:42] <JoCo1> Hey guys brand new  ubuntu user here, trying to install it on my pc (on my macbook now) and I'm having trouble with the partitions
[11:42] <PKdoR> so if I have ubuntu+c-f and no emerald I would use what Windows decoration themes?
[11:42] <soundray> [nrx] : I don't usually bother -- just 'rm ~/.gnome* ~/.gconf*' and start over with the gnome config.
[11:43] <JoCo1> I want ubuntu as my main OS so I deleted the other partitions but I can't make a new one for some reason, I cant partition outside the disk or somthing
[11:43] <LjL> i wouldn't partition outside the disk, no
[11:43] <Crytor> my laptop shutdown as the power was lost at once while ubuntu was running. now I cannot start up, it scans my harddrive and then tries to start the gui but cannot find any files and leaves me a prompt. I can use almost no commands, and startx tells me to use apt-get which I cannot either.
[11:43] <t0nedef> JoCo1: did you do this from the live cd?
[11:44] <JoCo1> yeah
[11:44] <PKdoR> how do I know if i have gtk or metacity?
[11:44] <gellioth> hi anyone here knows how to record from VCR?
[11:44] <Johnson> anyone in here having problem with skype voice recording working on and off
[11:44] <soundray> JoCo1: you've probably run into the limitations of the weird old DOS partitioning scheme.
[11:44] <t0nedef> JoCo1: did you make a blank partition table?
[11:44] <JoCo1> for gpartition or windows?
[11:44] <JoCo1> yeah I did
[11:45] <Crytor> anyone knows if I can fix it or if I have to reinstall the whole thing
[11:45] <Crytor> sigh
[11:45] <t0nedef> JoCo1: try rebooting and restarting the cd, see if it will allow you to make partitions to install too
[11:45] <soundray> JoCo1: you can have a maximum of four primary partitions, or three primaries and an extended one. Inside the extended partition, you can create multiple logical ones.
[11:45] <gellioth> anyone here knows how to record from VCR?
[11:45] <t0nedef> you can have up to 3 extended partitions, with 4 logical partitions per i believe
[11:45] <soundray> gellioth: you need a capture card. Many analog TV cards based on the bt878 chipset have this capability.
[11:46] <soundray> t0nedef: no
[11:46] <m12> hello
[11:46] <JoCo1> then new partition > [type of partition]  Primary > [New part size]  160000 > [Location]  Beginning > [Use as]  ext3 > and I dont know what to do for mount point
[11:46] <t0nedef> /
[11:46] <JoCo1> I deleted the other partitions
[11:46] <gellioth> soundray: I have a capture card but I dont have the program to do that
[11:46] <poella> hi i dowloaded ubuntu for AMD64 but one thing is confusing me... i got 2 files on my desktop, the first one is a .iso (698 MB) and the second one is a .part file (~60MB), why?
[11:46] <moncho> hola
[11:46] <t0nedef> you need a partition named /
[11:47] <JoCo1> I have /dev/sda and free space is under that
[11:47] <arialth> poella: are you using firefox?
[11:47] <BlkGhost> Someone please help... I partitioned a extra HD to the whole drive and formatted ext3 . I was using GNOME partition editor everything looks like it works but I can copy to or save to or change the name , nothing ??? HELP !!!
[11:47] <soundray> gellioth: xawtv is one possibility.
[11:47] <poella> arialth: yes
[11:47] <JoCo1> what is the mount point for my new partition?
[11:47] <t0nedef> on /dev/sda make a partition and set its mount point to /
[11:47] <gellioth> soundray: all is working (TV,radio) but I cant record
[11:47] <BlkGhost> CANT
[11:47] <fiyawerx> Jowi: worked perfect
[11:47] <arialth> poella: the download either broke or is not finished. press ctrl+j and look at your downloads
[11:48] <fiyawerx> gutsy working great now :)
[11:48] <soundray> gellioth: what happens when you try?
[11:48] <t0nedef> joco1: you want it to be /
[11:48] <poella> ah! now i remember... one download got broken
[11:48] <arialth> poella: firefox seems to always create the main file, and then a .part file for the same thing
[11:48] <JoCo1> ERROR: "Can't have a partition outside the disk!"
[11:48] <t0nedef> JoCo1 reboot cd and try again
[11:48] <JoCo1> K
[11:48] <poella> so the only file i need is the .iso file? i'll delete the .part file then
[11:48] <velko> Crytor, very strange problem indeed. which file system do you use for the root file system? xfs by any chance?
[11:48] <arialth> poella: if the file is still there, then it means it is not done or did not finish properly, I recommend redownloading it if it is done
[11:48] <t0nedef> JoCo1 as in shutdown computer, if it still doesn't work, come back and ask
[11:49] <BlkGhost> Someone please help... I partitioned a extra HD to the whole drive and formatted ext3 . I was using GNOME partition editor everything looks like it works but I can copy to or save to or change the name , nothing ??? HELP !!!
[11:49] <gellioth> kino is to record....... but dont work.... the record function isnt enabled
[11:49] <Crytor> velko: ext2 it is
[11:49] <BlkGhost> CAN't
[11:49] <Johnson> how do i restart my sound?
[11:49] <gellioth> sorry  for my english
[11:49] <Crytor> and yeah, I really don't get it... the hdd scan goes fine

[11:49] <poella> okay. i'll re-download it just to be sure i get a working one :P
[11:50] <Crytor> is it possible to repair ubuntu ?
[11:50] <velko> Crytor, you mentioned that you can't use apt-get. is the binary there?
[11:50] <Crytor> i am not sure
[11:50] <arialth> general question: where would i go to find out if it is possible to hook up 2 keyboards but use each one as a separate input? Like, which room?
[11:50] <velko> Crytor, file /usr/bin/apt-get
[11:50] <arialth> poella: I recommend getting a download accelerator (I use Down them all)

[11:51] <arialth> [nrx] : so, where can i find out if this is even possible
[11:51] <aoirthoir> soundray, tahnk you.
[11:51] <Crytor> but it cannot apt-get anything as long as it is not connected to the internet, i guess
[11:51] <gellioth> soundray: ok, but first I must uninstall tvtime
[11:52] <velko> Crytor, do you use the livecd right now?

[11:58] <SWAT> When I login to GNOME, the background color turns orange, I see the GNOME splash screen and as soon as my desktop loads, I see my settings (black background). How/Where can I change the 'orange' color or where is it defined?
[11:58] <gellioth> ok,   soundray,ubotu
[11:59] <Zampaktu> hello, i have messed up my gnome installation (have no idea how) and now when i log in, nothing happens, no panels no nothing. if i select gnome safe mode, it works fine. how do i make safe mode my default session? thank you in advance
[11:59] <soundray> arialth: I don't know, it depends on where it stores its config. Find out by making a config change, then running 'find ~ -mmin -2'
[11:59] <richie19rich71> system, prefences, desktop backgrounds
[11:59] <gellioth> thanks by your help!!!

[12:00] <gellioth> I'll come later.... restart!
[12:00] <arialth> poella: nope. If you right click there should be the options for DTA. Also, when you download something, firefox will ask you if you wanna use downthemall or not
[12:01] <soundray> [nrx] : the f isn't needed any more on ubuntu
[12:01] <richie19rich71> has anyone got directx working within vmware using ubuntu ?
[12:01] <poella> okay, thank you very much
[12:01] <SWAT> [nrx] , jrib tried that, doesn't work. It still changes to orange shortly (when the GNOME splash shows and before my personal settings are loaded). I even changed the colors in my gdm.conf
[12:01] <[nrx] > soundray: thanks :)
[12:01] <richie19rich71> got it working fine with a windows host
[12:01] <soundray> [nrx] : it's impossible to get rid of the habit, though ;)
[12:01] <[nrx] > soundray: lol yeah, it's like autopilot heh
[12:01] <BlkGhost> wHAT disk label do I give the Hard disk ?
[12:02] <t0nedef> i don't think the label matters...as long as you have a filesystem and a mount point, its all good
[12:03] <jrib> SWAT: it works here, I just made it bright pink.  Note that [nrx]  and I said different things
[12:03] <LjL> soundray: it isn't needed anymore?
[12:03] <[nrx] > SWAT: i'd go with what jrib suggested in the first place :)
[12:03] <SWAT> jrib, I know. I'll check if it's an gutsy issue. Thanks for double checking! I appreciate it
[12:03] <LjL> Henrik1 i'm sorry but i don't really know, and i don't have gnome installed anywhere so can't try it out
