[12:06] <Jowi> ThanatosDrive, that is, I let both installations use /dev/sda5 for /home and it works great. but if you don't have a separete /home partition the only good way I can think of is to tar /home (that will keep all permissions inside the archive), copy it to a safe place then untar it after install has finished.

[12:06] <slimjimflim> ThanatosDrive, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35087
[12:07] <ThanatosDrive> slimjimflim: Thanks!
[12:07] <jacob> waltzingalong, i'll give that program a try
[12:07] <ThanatosDrive> Jowi: Thanks!
[12:07] <pau1> I want to install ubuntu, and Im running the live cd, and Im trying to copy some files I want to keep to my external harddrive
[12:07] <slimjimflim> i just did the backup part, haven't tried to restore yet
[12:07] <pau1> But it wont let me copy them
[12:07] <steel_lady> I am in feisty live. I have one win partition and I am trying to format unallocated space like primary FAT32 partition. after 10 secs it stops and gives me the error. Why is that???
[12:07] <WaltzingAlong> !ntfs | pau1
[12:07] <ubotu> pau1: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[12:07] <ThanatosDrive> pau1: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g, probably
[12:07] <aLeSD> thanks
[12:07] <spuck> WlatzingAlong: it is a builtin graphical thing with SuSE. I just pick the NICs and select which have DHCPD and it works.
[12:07] <slimjimflim> Jowi, he'd probably want more than just /home
[12:07] <kr00l> NOTE FOR EVERYONE! THE NEW iTOUCH DOESN'T WORK WITH UBUNTU!
[12:07] <ThanatosDrive> pau1: Ubuntu can't read NTFS natively.
[12:07] <bascule> steel_lady: defrag the FAT32 volume first
[12:07] <Jowi> slimjimflim, probably but that was not the question.
[12:07] <ThanatosDrive> !caps | kr00l
[12:07] <Jowi> :)
[12:07] <ubotu> kr00l: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[12:08] <slimjimflim> oh, nm then
[12:08] <culpr|t> paul is the mount on the external hd write protected?
[12:08] <jugimaster> umm.  is there any known reason why AJAX-apps (for example The Dojo Toolkit demos) would be sluggish on Ubuntu/Linux in general?   -  I'm using Feisty and the latest Opera.
[12:08] <WaltzingAlong> thanks ubotu
[12:08] <WaltzingAlong> jugimaster: no not
[12:08] <pau1> sorry
[12:08] <pau1> what?
[12:08] <jugimaster> hmm..
[12:08] <Andeh> kr00l: These people have very sensitive ears. You need to respect that :D
[12:08] <kr00l> Lol!
[12:08] <kr00l> ok
[12:08] <jugimaster> well, for some reason the Dojo demos are just way too slow
[12:08] <Andeh> ;)
[12:08] <culpr|t> paul: what does it say when you try to copy?
[12:09] <hacknslash> Puppy_: looks like its sdc
[12:09] <pau1> You do not have permissions to write this folder
[12:09] <Andeh> LOL make install sex
[12:09] <Andeh> xD
[12:09] <nj786> can anybody tell me why photoshop doesnt open up it just freezes when i open it
[12:09] <Puppy_> hacknslash: what does that mean?
[12:09] <Andeh> lol
[12:09] <francois> I have a friend installing ubuntu but he has a 8800 graphic card, for which the nv drivers don't work and his X crashes before he can see anything, how can he still manage the install ?
[12:09] <culpr|t> paul: yes so by default the live cd mounts external drives in read only mode. Meaning you can't write to them at all
[12:09] <WaltzingAlong> nj786: start it through a console so you can see any output
[12:09] <pau1> Ah!
[12:09] <pau1> My windows install is messed
[12:10] <Andeh> /even if someone gave me a free copy of Photoshop
[12:10] <pau1> says disc read error and wont boot
[12:10] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: GIMP isnt close to photoshop
[12:10] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: what do you mean?
[12:10] <WaltzingAlong> nj786: i do not want photoshop. i want bitmap image editing
[12:10] <pau1> and I hate windows, so I wanna switch to ubuntu, but I have some files I need to keep
[12:10] <bascule> no it surpasses it
[12:10] <culpr|t> write
[12:10] <slimjimflim> francois, maybe ctrl+alt+f1 will give you a shell
[12:10] <pau1> So is there anyway to bypass the read only?
[12:10] <francois> slimjimflim: is there a quick command for a shell install ?
[12:10] <WaltzingAlong> pau1: yes the drive can be mounted read/write
[12:10] <Andeh> pau1: You're trying to copy your windows files to ubuntu, amrite?
[12:10] <pau1> alright
[12:10] <MeRodent> francois, the standard install for ubuntu should not have an issue with 8800 (it won't give you 3d) but should still work.
[12:11] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: not just that GIMP is confusing
[12:11] <pau1> Im trying to copy some excell files
[12:11] <slimjimflim> francois, dunno, but that might bypass your graphics card problem
[12:11] <francois> MeRodent: he gets the boot menu, and then sees nothing but black after that, doesn't load at all
[12:11] <culpr|t> sorry i meant right. Yes there is indeed a way. I am not sure where is it exactly documented or if someone here can tell you the steps.
[12:11] <WaltzingAlong> nj786: life was confusing until i started living it
[12:11] <heguru> pau1: you can use ntfs-3g for read/write access to NTFS windows drives
[12:11] <hacknslash> Puppy_: click places, home folder
[12:11] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: no need to get deep
[12:11] <Andeh> pau1: Hmm, Ubuntu is fine with windows partitions, you should be able to read it without write access and just copy the files over
[12:11] <Maxwell> hey guys
[12:11] <MeRodent> francois, does the live CD work with his system? Is that what you're using?
[12:12] <hacknslash> Puppy_: can u see your mp3 drive on sdc ?
[12:12] <pau1> I havent installed ubuntu yet
[12:12] <Maxwell> I'm trying to find out what the compiz-fusion shortcut keys are
[12:12] <pau1> it cant see any of my current partitions
[12:12] <Maxwell> can't find them anywhere!
[12:12] <pau1> neither can GParted
[12:12] <pau1> it thinks my whole drive is unallocated
[12:12] <francois> MeRodent: i have the system installed, but he's trying to get uubuntu working but can't get past the boot menu...
[12:12] <WaltzingAlong> nj786: my guess is that your commitment level is below the required amount to obtain adequate results
[12:12] <Puppy_> hacknslash: sdc?
[12:12] <tonytux> with no  internet connection is there a way to use an installed pkg list outputed from synaptic to then collect the pkgs needed for upgrade?
[12:12] <pau1> So I want to save all my important files to my external harddrive (ntfs formatted)
[12:13] <Maxwell> ps. I'm liking ubunut, GEdit has come so far! Lots of nice textmate features
[12:13] <pau1> then create new partitions
[12:13] <MeRodent> francois, is the boot issue with liveCD before install or has he installed and is now having a problem logging on?
[12:13] <bruenig> !ot | Maxwell gedit has nothing to do with ubuntu
[12:13] <ubotu> Maxwell gedit has nothing to do with ubuntu: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:13] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: no its not that its just why doesnt photoshop work on linux period?
[12:13] <Maxwell> so does anyone know where  I can get a list of default shortcut keys for the tribe 5 release?
[12:13] <Maxwell> for compizfusion
[12:13] <WaltzingAlong> nj786: adobe has not created photoshop for linux

[12:13] <Jowi> hi, I just installed a barebone server feisty system with only windowmaker and slim (simple login manager). the gtk programs seem to have different sized fonts for menus etc. I have created .Xresources and .gtkrc.mine to set the fonts, which works well on another edgy system that has got gnome, gdm and wmaker installed. but it seems like this barebones setup does not see .gtkrc.mine properly. anyone has any tips for this?

[12:14] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: i did but it freezes when i open it
[12:15] <hacknslash> Puppy_: in the left hand pane can you see sda, sdb or sdc ?
[12:15] <anya> nono, partitioning when installing a new OS
[12:15] <bruenig> network manager is a front end, whether he is using it or not won't affect anything
[12:15] <rom> no, I tried with knetworkmanager, and now I am in /etc/network/interfaces
[12:15] <rom> here is the problem :
[12:15] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: it is installed and ready to go but it doesnt work
[12:15] <tonytux> use a pkg list to upgrade a comp not connected to internet?
[12:15] <WaltzingAlong> nj786: well congrats to you. and your next step? say screw it, linux sucks, then back to windows?
[12:15] <bruenig> get it going via iwconfig and such and then from there work into getting the clunky gui to work
[12:15] <searayman> anyonbody?
[12:15] <heguru> rom: ok.. u have to configure wpa using wpa_supplicant
[12:15] <WaltzingAlong> nj786: which version of wine? which version of adobe's photoshop for ms windows?
[12:15] <anya> open suse specifically. i dont acully know anything about partitioning other than it splits up the hard drive to aid preformance
[12:15] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: nope. try to do something about it
[12:15] <rom> yes I did it

[12:15] <Puppy_> hacknslash: no
[12:16] <Veinor> pau1: is it an NTFS (windows) hard drive?
[12:16] <mihailvoiculescu> and whats the reason
[12:16] <mihailvoiculescu> ?
[12:16] <WaltzingAlong> spuck: once you get kubuntu/ubuntu installed, then you could use a program like guidedog to establish rules for sharing the connection
[12:16] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: **
[12:16] <bruenig> !iptables
[12:16] <pau1> Veinor: yes it is
[12:16] <MeRodent> francois, sorry bout this I'm sure you need to deactivate the spalsh screen but I'm trying to find how to do it.
[12:16] <ubotu> 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).
[12:16] <hacknslash> Puppy_: i gotta go taxi driving, will be back later oaky
[12:16] <WaltzingAlong> mihailvoiculescu: because it has not (yet) taken over the world?

[12:16] <Puppy_> hacknslash: ok. I had to go too. thanks
[12:16] <slimjimflim> francois, have you checked the hardware compatibility list?
[12:16] <mihailvoiculescu> it will
[12:16] <WaltzingAlong> nj786: wine --version
[12:16] <Veinor> paul: not sure if you can do it from the DVD, I know it's possible from an actual install.
[12:16] <pau1> Gah
[12:16] <tonytux> does ne one see me?
[12:17] <pau1> I need to save some files before I wipe out my drive
[12:17] <pau1> Ah
[12:17] <sh3l1> mihailvoiculescu, very likely it will, yes
[12:17] <WaltzingAlong> tonytux: no but if you type we can read what you send to irc
[12:17] <pau1> Or I can burn em to dvd right?
[12:17] <francois> slimjimflim: can you link me ? i havn't checked it
[12:17] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: yes i dont know what version it is
[12:17] <alecwh> I'm using Fiesty, and I recently came upon some screenshots of gedit on Gusty. It looks a lot better, with improved features. Is there any way I can get this right now for Fiesty?
[12:17] <mihailvoiculescu> you dont have to pay billl gates a cent when you can find a 3 timed better op system for free
[12:17] <sh3l1> mihailvoiculescu, but not in the forseeable future

[12:18] <spuck> WaltzingAlong: is it graphical? I'm a beginner. Vista made me switch. I hope that people l hope that people like me are welcome here. I think there are going to be a lot more.

[12:19] <tonytux> ok see ya then
[12:19] <triptec> is there anyway to check the integrety of files in a tar archive
[12:20] <Veinor> paul: you can definitely burn them to a dvd, yeah.
[12:20] <jugimaster> I agree about GIMP being confusing though, and it's just not Photoshop :)
[12:20] <bruenig> triptec, it needs to be extracted first of course
[12:20] <pau1> yeah Im doing it now

[12:25] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: is there a wine update of some sort?

[12:26] <Veinor> bruenig: cynical much?

[12:27] <ubotu> sh3l1: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[12:27] <WaltzingAlong> pau1: none are needed but clamav could be used
[12:27] <pau1> or do I not need to worry about spyware and viruses?
[12:27] <Veinor> paul: you don't really need any for linux
[12:27] <pau1> Ah
[12:27] <pau1> Okay
[12:28] <slimjimflim> paul, i gzipped mine to about 9 gb, but that's with a lot of software and vidwo
[12:28] <sh3l1> WaltzingAlong, just kidding, i speek english, i was just trying out some spanish i learned
[12:28] <slimjimflim> *video
[12:28] <pau1> Eh
[12:28] <sh3l1> WaltzingAlong, speak**
[12:28] <pau1> Ill just make a 100 gb partition for the OS
[12:28] <pau1> and make two 30 gb's maybe
[12:28] <WaltzingAlong> sh3l1: i guess i should have guessed you were not native since you used the pronouns
[12:28] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: can you explain to me what i need to put into terminal because i forgot how to update
[12:28] <Linkslice> in other linuxes i can hit ctrl-alt-Fn to get to a cli, how do i do that with ubuntu?
[12:28] <LjL> sh3l1: if you meant "[please]  don't speak english", that would be "no hablE ingles" i think. if you meant "i don't speak english", "no hablO ingles"
[12:28] <WaltzingAlong> nj786:  http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=2631
[12:28] <bruenig> Linkslice, ctrl-alt-fn
[12:29] <sh3l1> WaltzingAlong, i've only been to mexico once and have been in spanish class for 3 weeks, so i'm still learning.
[12:29] <bruenig> if by n you mean some number [1,6] 
[12:29] <bjwebb> hi
[12:29] <Linkslice> bruenig: the same?  it's not working....
[12:29] <Linkslice> must be me then
[12:29] <sh3l1> ljl, thanks the masculine/feminine stuff really screws me up
[12:30] <bruenig> Linkslice, it is not a distro thing, they are created by /etc/inittab
[12:30] <bjwebb> i have a partiton of size 3GB with 13.3GB used space
[12:30] <bascule> marlun: are you just trying to find a specific file or do you need to see what will be installed from a package in whole?
[12:30] <WaltzingAlong> bjwebb: impressive
[12:30] <marlun> bascule, the later
[12:30] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: ok the link you sent me does that mean it wont work? becuase the one i have it opens up and it just never opens
[12:30] <bjwebb> WaltzingAlong: f00ked more like
[12:30] <catfacts> My fiesty upgrade quit half way and failed to compete when I retried
[12:30] <catfacts>  http://www.cat-blog.org/1.png and http://www.cat-blog.org/2.png
[12:30] <catfacts>  and I haven't goten any more updates to work
[12:30] <catfacts>  Should I just reinstall to the new Gusty when it releases
[12:30] <bascule> marlun: aptitude
[12:30] <LjL> sh3l1: not a matter of masculine and feminine, it's just the verb conjugations at work. "hablo" is "i speak" - "habla" is "[please]  speak", but "[please]  don't speak" is "no hable"... for some reason.
[12:30] <WaltzingAlong> bjwebb: a partition of 3GB but with 13.3GB of used space on it, that is impressive
[12:31] <marlun> bascule, I want to see which files will be installed. aptitude? ok, will check it's help.
[12:31] <rrbiz> hey guys i'm getn cpu scalling unsupported on my Intel Pentium M, which did before and now doesn't someone know the right driver suite I should check for ?

My end goal is to have shortcuts on the desktops of both comps that let me connect and browse the files of the other.  I'm only trying to share one hd on the linux box, not worried about sharing the /home or anything.  I also plan on in the future setting up a script to sync a co
[12:31] <Semidios> uple directories between the two comps.  From what I've read I want to use afp, but how do I do so?
[12:31] <pau1> can someone help me set up partitions?
[12:31] <sh3l1> LjL, i plan to take 2 or 3 years worth

[12:32] <LjL> Semidios: afp? never heard of it honestly. as for network filesystems, i know samba (mostly intended to work with windows machines, but it can be used i suppose) and nfs
[12:32] <WaltzingAlong> XiXaQ: were you using the dvd?
[12:33] <caminomaster> hi
[12:33] <XiXaQ> WaltzingAlong, I don't understand the question.
[12:33] <caminomaster> I need help to get winks working in amsn... maybe someone can help me to compare settings?
[12:33] <XiXaQ> WaltzingAlong, I mean for creating guests..
[12:33] <WaltzingAlong> XiXaQ: to use the cd or dvd as source, you can use the dvd of ubuntu or the alternate cd of ubuntu (not the live/desktop one)
[12:34] <pau1> Can someone help me set up a partitions for ubuntu?
[12:34] <nj786> WaltzingAlong: but then again you have CS right and it is working?
[12:34] <XiXaQ> WaltzingAlong, how?

[12:35] <pau1> Ive got a 160 gb hard drive, I want one 100 gb partitions to install ubuntu on, and two 30 gb's for files
[12:35] <Semidios> LjL, Samba wouldn't be bad, but requires alot of messing around the OSX box to get it to work right.  so far for afp i've read to install netatalk so the Mac can see the Linux box.  which kinda worked, it could see it but not connect to it.  but the other way around is a problem.
[12:35] <XiXaQ> mady, #ubuntu-fr ?
[12:35] <WaltzingAlong> LjL: perhaps ssh?
[12:35] <pau1> right now im at the manual partition setup screen in the installer
[12:35] <MeRodent> paul, so just ubuntu?
[12:35] <mady> ok mercie tank

[12:47] <WaltzingAlong> XiXaQ: i think you would mount the device as inserted in the standard cd/dvd rom drive, then apt-cdrom add it          and if you had the iso you should be able to mount that          mount ./ubuntu-alternate.iso /media/cdrom -o loop   for example

[12:56] <ShackJack> SO I'm running a block check on my data partition with e2fsck -c .. It got up to block 1 million or so and is spatting out "exception emask" and Buffier I/O error on device at logical block 1[xxxxxx]  - is this just a process of finding the bad blocks and marking them, or is it unable to mark the blocks because of these errors?
[12:56] <magnetron> dstadulis: you never know who's joking on IRC
[12:56] <secher_> stefg the data is not the problem, it took me 2 weeks to get ubuntu to work on my laptop, im not sure i can go through all that hassle again :D

[12:57] <dappermuis> ShackJack, though fear not - i've never know fsck not to be able to fix a problem!

[12:58] <Srixon> Is T-Mobile compatable with Ubuntu???

[12:59] <DaveG|> hey, has anyone got starcraft working with wine and got it to play over hamachi using UDP?
[12:59] <stefg> secher_: so the machine might not be able to boot again
[12:59] <dappermuis> greenmanwitch, fine - but check to make sure that is the problem. so remove it first and see what happens. if it still freezes then you know the problem is something else and can proceed from there
[12:59] <magnetron> DaveG|: a lot of ppl play starcraft in wine, see appdb.winehq.org
[12:59] <WaltzingAlong> DaveG|: starcraft with wine on ubuntu, yes; have not tried over hamachi though
[01:00] <bascule> secher_: still try testdisk though it can work wonders
[01:00] <DaveG|> WaltzingAlong, have you tried on LAN?
[01:00] <greenmanwitch> dappermuis: ok, and if flash is the problem what should I do? Check if there is an update, I suppose.
[01:00] <bascule> secher_: be very aware of data loss though
[01:00] <secher_> stefg: it boots just fine..
[01:00] <WaltzingAlong> not lately but when i have (years ago) it worked, DaveG|

[01:00] <magnetron> DaveG|: really, ppl play it on lan you should read on http://appdb.winehq.org
[01:00] <shk> anyone know how to make mplayer default?  some of my videos still go over to totem
[01:00] <secher_> bascule: doesnt really matter, i dont have anything of real value, its all new
[01:01] <DaveG|> magnetron, i have
[01:01] <bascule> see if it will sort you out then
[01:01] <magnetron> shk: right click the video and choose preferences, open with
[01:01] <stefg> secher_: so what does 'sudo fdisk -l' report? (see the topic for pastebin url)
[01:01] <magnetron> DaveG|: all the info is there
[01:01] <Srixon> Magnetron: i was joking... JEEZ!
[01:01] <shk> thanks magnetron
[01:01] <magnetron> Srixon: so did i
[01:01] <DaveG|> magnetron, yes i have and i can't find anything
[01:01] <XiXaQ> WaltzingAlong, yes, but they aren't familiar with Ubunutu.
[01:02] <greenmanwitch> uhoh, his computer isn't starting :\. Perhaps all of the switching off killed his poor little ext3 partition :(
[01:02] <Srixon> Magnetron: What if, when paddling upstream in a canoe one of your wheels falls off? which weay do you fly? YOU CANT! ICECREAM DOESNT HAVE BONES!
[01:02] <narothepharoh> i have an officejet g55 printer scanner copier who doesnt seem to be doing what it is told by printing it stays up in the tray a pic of a printer and does nothing no errors nothing
[01:02] <S0me1> which language you prefer as linux sysadmin Python,Perl or Ruby? ....  your advices please

[01:02] <Stettin> I'm currently getting blank video (no decoder missing error) playing DVDs (Both CSS encrypted, and deCSS decrypted), I can click on menus, blindly, and hear sound just fine in both Totem and gXine, any ideas on how to fix this? (i'm open to a complete reinstall of stuff but haved already tried removing libdvdcss2, libdvdnav5, libdvdplay0, and libdvdread3 and reinstalling
[01:02] <magnetron> Srixon: bored?
[01:02] <Kevina> escuse me a italy ubuntu channel?
[01:02] <Arafangion> S0me1: Pick one.
[01:02] <Kevina> s
[01:03] <magnetron> !dvd | Stettin
[01:03] <ubotu> Stettin: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[01:03] <Arafangion> S0me1: Traditionally, the popular choice was perl, but python is now very popular too.
[01:03] <WaltzingAlong> !it | Kevina
[01:03] <ubotu> Kevina: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[01:03] <MeRodent> Kevina,  /j #ubuntu-it
[01:03] <Arafangion> S0me1: perl is probably slightly better for quick&dirty short scripts.
[01:03] <t-d-s> hey guys I installed amarok-xine and mp3s still don't work with amarok.  I also click the dialog box that says it will install mp3 support and after restarting the app it still doesn't ahve support for mp3's.  Does anyone ahve advice?
[01:03] <Srixon> Magnetron: Waiting for Eve-Online to work on Ubuntu, i called the fairy.. but she hasnt flown in yet...
[01:03] <dimas_> when i used synaptic this site (http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com) generate a gpg error message cause cant verify signature from my public key....how do i fix this?
[01:03] <tarelerulz> I have totem and it don't work as well as I would like . it don't do forever loop on videos and I was wondering is totem hard to compile ?
[01:03] <Srixon> Its not going in wine at all :-(
[01:03] <narothepharoh> i have an officejet g55 printer scanner copier who doesnt seem to be doing what it is told by printing it stays up in the tray a pic of a printer and does nothing no errors nothing
[01:03] <S0me1> What about libraries ? which of them has huge number ?
[01:04] <Arafangion> S0me1: Most people who use such scripting languages tend to be either biased for perl, OR biased for python - most people don't use both. Quite exclusive camps.
[01:04] <bruenig> dimas_, if you use third party repos, it's on you to make sure you know what you are doing and that the repos know what they are doing
[01:04] <narothepharoh> anyone have issues like this?
[01:04] <Arafangion> S0me1: Both have huge numbers of libraries.
[01:04] <magnetron> Srixon: it runs. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=9022
[01:04] <Srixon> OK magnetron i need help now... lol
[01:04] <Stettin> magnetron: thanks for the links but I have all of that installed
[01:04] <bruenig> S0me1, why not bash
[01:04] <Arafangion> S0me1: Now, some python and perl people are migrating to Ruby, which is a nice and impressive language, hwoever its documentation and libraries are not as mature at all.
[01:04] <dimas_> bruenig so how i send them my key? i dont know how to handle gpg
[01:04] <magnetron> Srixon: so ask the whole channel :D
[01:04] <secher_> stefg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38179/
[01:05] <Stettin> i've done this 5 times before w/ no problems, just this one time i'm getting blank video
[01:05] <bruenig> dimas_, refer to above statement
[01:05] <bascule> Arafangion: pythin is the only one, you will be able to understand what you did in 6 weeks time :)
[01:05] <sixpence> Arafangion: Really? Why migrate?
[01:05] <Srixon> Apparently i was trying to reinstall alot of my stuff. so it was clean, like a repair... so uhmm...  not its coming up with a Blue Screen, i think i nuked the nvidia drivers... how do i revert?
[01:05] <rom> heguru?
[01:05] <Stettin> i'm having to GASP boot to vista to play my DVDs at work, sigh :(
[01:05] <Arafangion> sixpence: ruby has an enourmous number of "nice" features that make programmers drool. ;)
[01:05] <S0me1> bruenig: sure bash first choice :)
[01:05] <rom> heguru: ?
[01:05] <heguru> rom: hi rom
[01:05] <Arafangion> sixpence: Closures, "blocks", DSL's, etc.
[01:05] <magnetron> Stettin: try the ogle dvd player
[01:05] <heguru> i am here
[01:05] <narothepharoh> i have an officejet g55 printer scanner copier who doesnt seem to be doing what it is told by printing it stays up in the tray a pic of a printer and does nothing no errors nothing
[01:05] <Stettin> ogle, ok
[01:05] <rom> ok
[01:05] <heguru> the channel is #wpa_error
[01:05] <rom> did you receive my message on wpa_error?
[01:06] <bascule> Srixon: press F8 at boot time and bring it up in safe-mode
[01:06] <heguru> no
[01:06] <rom> ah??....
[01:06] <heguru> its ok join the channel again
[01:06] <rom> I am connected... wait
[01:06] <heguru> i am still there
[01:06] <rom> I disconnect
[01:06] <Arafangion> bascule: Heh, I'm still struggling to understand my own database object mapper. ;)  300 lines of extremely dense meta-class-based manipulation with decorators is not easy code to understand. ;)
[01:06] <Arafangion> bascule: And i only wrote it 2 years ago. ;)
[01:07] <S0me1> Arafangion: ruby does not has good description for the libraries , but python very good in this point
[01:07] <narothepharoh> i dont know how to find device manager whats the best way
[01:07] <bascule> Arafangion: have to take your word for that, but all languages can bee
[01:07] <protoloco> how can i make.. a file like that.. -rwsr-x---    1 root     root        23260 Aug 22 12:33 /bin/su.. With the   's'  permission..
[01:07] <Arafangion> bascule: Indeed.
[01:07] <rom> heguru: is it ok now?
[01:07] <bascule> horrible to re-read after the event
[01:07] <dimas_> bruenig but when i used gyache and the software opens give me a gpg error message asking me to install a newer version and really dont know much about gpg
[01:07] <Arafangion> S0me1: If you want to choose something traditional, pick either python or perl.
[01:07] <bruenig> dimas_, that is not an ubuntu issue
[01:07] <S0me1> but i see Perl has huge number of libraries
[01:07] <dimas_> bruenig lol
[01:08] <stefg> secher_: so there is still a partition table but it's in a bad state. gparted won't be able to resize any partitons, so it would be best to do a complete backup first, and repartition the disk
[01:08] <sixpence> Arafangion: Hmm..
[01:08] <bruenig> dimas_, if you do stuff outside of ubuntu repos, that's on you
[01:08] <sixpence> Arafangion: Is it easy to learn?
[01:08] <bascule> secher_: run testdisk, trust me here alright
[01:08] <narothepharoh> am i invisible here?
[01:08] <Arafangion> sixpence: *shrug*, probably.  Easier than perl, for sure.
[01:08] <magnetron> no narothepharoh
[01:08] <S0me1> ruby good in rails i thought it is great framework
[01:08] <sichilian> hi there
[01:08] <dimas_> bruenig but how i get the other side to know my scripted source code?
[01:09] <sichilian> i just try to connect to EFNet
[01:09] <narothepharoh> magnetron can you assist me?
[01:09] <Arafangion> sixpence: It's sure as heck easier than C++ ;)
[01:09] <sichilian> unfortunately it is banning me
[01:09] <magnetron> narothepharoh: please ask the whole channel
[01:09] <underwatercow> does anyone know how to easily install hamachi?
[01:09] <sichilian> cause it tells me i'm banned
[01:09] <narothepharoh> ive been trying
[01:09] <sichilian> because of my IP
[01:09] <secher_> stefg: meaning format and reinstall?
[01:09] <LjL> sichilian, that sort of issue is more than a bit offtopic in this channel
[01:10] <narothepharoh> i need to find device manager how do i do it?
[01:10] <underwatercow> I know Automatix is worthless in general, but is it worth using it to install hamachi?
[01:10] <sichilian> LjL > it's an xchat issue ...
[01:10] <bascule> narothepharoh: there isn't one
[01:10] <shk> is there a way to see all the background processes in ubuntu, like a taskmanager-type of thing?
[01:10] <LjL> sichilian: if EFNet tells you you're banned because of your IP, i can hardly see a connection with x-chat honestly
[01:10] <dimas_> does anyone know about gpg but bruenig?
[01:11] <looris> how do you enable the external monitor on an iBook? I searched on ubuntu's site but found nothing
[01:11] <Arafangion> shk: ps aux
[01:11] <magnetron> narothepharoh: ubuntu has no device manager. however, it has the System > preferences > hardware info
[01:11] <narothepharoh> i need to find out what the problem is with my printer whats the best route?
[01:11] <Flats> Anyone running KVirc2 on Ubuntu?
[01:11] <stefg> secher_: meaning doing a backup, blank the disk, make partitions and restore the backups to the new partitions
[01:11] <S0me1> As I knew Ubuntu team they are working on Python, is it?
[01:11] <bascule> shk: lots, top, gtop, pa aux, gnome-system-monitor are the most common
[01:11] <stefg> !backup | secher_
[01:11] <ubotu> secher_: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[01:11] <sichilian> LjL > xchat tells EFNet my IP is 127.0.0.1
[01:11] <rsfriends> hey
[01:11] <bascule> shk: that should have been ps aux
[01:11] <sichilian> LjL > that's why
[01:11] <magnetron> shk: system > administration > system monitor
[01:11] <sichilian> i'm banned
[01:11] <xnstable> #iphone.dev
[01:11] <shk> yes i was thinking of system monitor but thank you
[01:11] <Elda> Well, I got my steam to work again, but Im still having troubles with sound :(
[01:12] <LjL> sichilian: uhm, still efnet should know better - they can see your real IP. but then again, if it really is an x-chat issue, i'm not the guy to talk to, since i don't use it
[01:12] <magnetron> !sound | Elda
[01:12] <Elda> Yeah yeah, Ive tried the forums
[01:12] <ubotu> Elda: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[01:12] <secher_> well im gonna start out by doing a testdisk
[01:12] <sichilian> ok
[01:12] <Stettin> magnetron is there an easy guide on setting an ATI video for dual monitor?
[01:12] <bascule> sichilian: use irrsi, that'll solve it and many other x-chat issues
[01:12] <bascule> ;)
[01:12] <sichilian> is it gnome or text interface ?
[01:12] <magnetron> Stettin: i only know it will be a lot easier with ubuntu 7.10
[01:12] <Stettin> hmm
[01:12] <bascule> sichilian: shell
[01:12] <Stettin> maybe I should install Gusty tribe?
[01:13] <Elda> So far using the forums, Ive been able to Identify what MIGHT be my sound device, but I am not really sure :(
[01:13] <sichilian> humhum
[01:13] <Elda> *identify
[01:13] <Stettin> err.. spelling :(
[01:13] <magnetron> Stettin: wait for the official release, or at least the beta
[01:13] <Stettin> hehe ok
[01:13] <looris> nobody knows anything about iBook external monitors?
[01:13] <bascule> Elda: cat /proc/asound/cards
[01:14] <Elda> Would this be my sound device? 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
[01:14] <sichilian> ok see ya all
[01:14] <sichilian> thanks
[01:14] <sichilian> bye
[01:14] <bascule> Elda: yes

[01:14] <ubotu> looris Stettin: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[01:14] <Elda> Okey, then I did find that already
[01:14] <Flats> Anyone try listening to satellite radio on ubuntu?
[01:14] <Elda> Now to figure out how to make it work, lol
[01:14] <Srixon> Apparently i was trying to reinstall alot of my stuff. so it was clean, like a repair... so uhmm...  not its coming up with a Blue Screen, i think i nuked the nvidia drivers... how do i revert?    The X Server is broken.
[01:14] <Stettin> thanks ubotu
[01:14] <Stettin> err magnetron :)
[01:14] <looris> thanks magnetron
[01:14] <Crozar> any mobile geforce Go drivers accelerated tweaked similar to omega windows mobile cards or cracked inf
[01:14] <MeRodent> Srixon, what card?
[01:14] <Srixon> Nvidia
[01:14] <Srixon> 6150 go
[01:15] <bascule> Elda: ls -l /dev/snd/ see about 4 - 6 entries there?
[01:15] <Elda> Crozar, dont tell me the go series have the freezing issue in here too?!
[01:15] <Elda> bascule let me check
[01:15] <MeRodent> Srixon, have you tried restricted drivers manager?
[01:15] <Crozar> what freezing issue? i dont use beryl i like my default ubuntu , its just if i have that il wait for a later beryl release something special which will not overcome the ubuntu system
[01:15] <Srixon> i cant get into the GUI, so im lost.
[01:15] <Srixon> says the X Server has crashed.. blah blah blah
[01:16] <Srixon> on every boot
[01:16] <bascule> Srixon: is it a sony?
[01:16] <Elda> Oh thank god.... I ditched windows because in vista/xp I could not run some 3d programs because the drivers where all borked and would cause games like HL2 to freeze
[01:16] <Srixon> Laptop?? Its an HP
[01:16] <Elda> bascule: I got about 6 entries yes
[01:17] <bascule> Srixon: ok, i's just sony laptops are very different hardware wise than most others
[01:17] <Crozar> im using the restricted drivers its fine but when forexample i benchmark 5/10 currently  when i must benchmark 8/10
[01:17] <sichilian> re all
[01:17] <MeRodent> Elda, even thought it's off topic have you installed the latest directX files from microsoft (fixed a lot of problems for me)
[01:17] <bascule> Elda: and if you try to play something what happens?
[01:17] <sichilian> just to ask ... is there any identd package ?
[01:17] <Elda> MeRodent: Yes Id tried everything
[01:17] <Elda> I spent about a month trying different fixes, drivers
[01:17] <Elda> Even sent my laptop in for repairs
[01:17] <Elda> They fou nd nothing wrong
[01:17] <Elda> bascule.... there is just no sound
[01:18] <Elda> It acts like its playing
[01:18] <Elda> Its just nothing there
[01:18] <Crozar> omg people talking about games , im in ubuntu just to run away from games , why u need games when u got XboX , btw Quake games come for Linux aswel ;)

[01:18] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:18] <bascule> tried alsamixer?
[01:18] <bascule> Elda: ^^
[01:18] <Srixon> Bascule: any idea on what to do?
[01:18] <Elda> Bascule:  Ive by alsa mixer what do you mean?  Are you referring to playing with the settings?
[01:19] <bascule> try running just 'X' from shell see what it says
[01:19] <bascule> Elda: yes there is a shell mixer called alsamixer
[01:19] <bascule> Elda: press escape key to quit
[01:19] <Elda> Err I do not think I have this mixer even installed
[01:19] <Elda> let me check the packages
[01:19] <Stettin> nogo on video dvd display in Ogle, I think it has to be some underlying thing but can't figure which one
[01:19] <secher_> stefg: im not sure what im supposed to do with the testdisk? "overlapping partitions" isnt really a problem i understand..
[01:20] <bascule> secher_: analyze first the it should offer the option to fix
[01:21] <Elda> Okay, it looks like I do have it.  Where would I access this mixer?  Though I think I may have accessed it before.
[01:21] <bascule> just run terminal from applications -> accessories
[01:21] <magnetron> Elda: right click the speaker icon in the upper corner
[01:21] <bascule> heh
[01:22] <Elda> magnetron:  Then yes, I've played with that
[01:22] <bascule> Elda: and none show muted or down at the bottom?
[01:23] <Flats> Anyone here have problems installing easyubuntu?

[01:23] <speps> hey guys ... a little noisy trouble ... awn make strange stripes on the screen ... PLEASE HELP!!!
[01:23] <secher_> stefg: anything formatted in FAT structure is safe to format without touching linux right?

I don't even know where to start (google hasn't been much help)
[01:25] <Elda> bascule: Any other ideas?

[01:30] <MeRodent> LjL, seemed to be pretty easy for him to understand that last bit.
[01:30] <Pelo> joy what ?
[01:30] <bascule> *gigle*
[01:30] <Elda> I suppose I search through the forums some more to try to find something to make my stupid sound work
[01:30] <bascule> Pelo: he got banned
[01:30] <utferd> hi
[01:30] <EmperorCezar> Anyone have trouble in the LTS Server when using useradd -g groupname that it adds the user to the group using a colon instead of a comma?
[01:30] <greenmanwitch> hey
[01:30] <bascule> Pelo: pretty hard to misinterpret that :)
[01:31] <utferd> how can i connect internet with usb modem ?
[01:31] <Pelo> Elda,  check your users permission settings ( in the admin menu ) , see if you are allowed to use sound devices
[01:31] <Pelo> bascule, not quite what I was refering to
[01:32] <Elda> Pelo: Would this be under users and groups?
[01:32] <Pelo> Elda,  yes
[01:32] <Srixon> Bascule: ignore me... im going to just reinstall Ubuntu.
[01:32] <Pelo> Elda,  for your specific username
[01:32] <Elda> Use audio devices is checked, Pelo.
[01:33] <Pelo> Elda,  was worth a shot,  it's been known to be the cause of that particular problem
[01:33] <bascule> shall I set /ignore on Srixon ? :)

[01:33] <EvaLuaTe> could i change the shortcut keys for stuff like 'Alt+F1 - F6' from the command line ?
[01:33] <Pelo> Elda, try it , won'T cost you anything
[01:34] <EvaLuaTe> i mean, could i change the shortcut keys for changing the tty from the command line ?
[01:34] <Pelo> EvaLuaTe,  there is probably a config file for that but I don'T know what it would be
[01:34] <EvaLuaTe> uhum
[01:34] <Pelo> EvaLuaTe,  you mean using the command line to make the changes ?
[01:34] <EvaLuaTe> yes
[01:35] <EvaLuaTe> i don't have a DE
[01:35] <Elda> No dice Pelo
[01:35] <Pelo> Elda,  I assume you'Ve been given the sound troubleshooting howto ?
[01:36] <Elda> I think I have.... Ive read so many things who knows :>
[01:36] <Elda> I went to the forums before I came here.... though in googling my specific sound card some more things came up
[01:36] <tarelerulz> I am wanting to do vnc  with my windows computer ,but How do I find out its ip  with out just going to the computer . just use findsmb when it ubuntu computer .
[01:36] <erUSUL> EvaLuaTe: i think that that's hardcoded into the kernel... if you want more flexibility in command line try 'screen' the best app in a linux box
[01:36] <Pelo> !sound > Elda  this is what I mean  check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[01:36] <erUSUL> !info screen | EvaLuaTe
[01:36] <ubotu> evaluate: screen: a terminal multiplexor with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation. In component main, is optional. Version 4.0.3-0.2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 571 kB, installed size 980 kB
[01:37] <EvaLuaTe> hmm
[01:37] <Elda> Pelo: Going through those links now, thank you :)
[01:38] <EvaLuaTe> ok, thank you erUSUL =)
[01:38] <erUSUL> EvaLuaTe: no problem
[01:38] <PaulButler> How do I tell linux where to look for .so files when executing a program?
[01:38] <tarelerulz> The reason I ask about ip thing is when I run findsmb on ubuntu computer is turns up the ip
[01:38] <Pelo> PaulButler,  are you installing something ?
[01:38] <erUSUL> EvaLuaTe: just an introduction http://jmcpherson.org/screen.html
[01:39] <bascule> PaulButler: it is based around ld and ldconfig, if it was linked correctly it should find them
[01:39] <PaulButler> Pelo: I am trying to run a program I compiled locally (with Objective Caml) on another server that I don't have root access to.
[01:39] <PaulButler> I see, it must be linked to my local copy
[01:40] <Pelo> PaulButler,  that'S a bit over my head , but I'm guessing that the server is missing the dependency, I don'T know how you would redirect
[01:40] <bascule> PaulButler: i dunno if you can do a static build, but that would solve it at the expense of bigger binaries
[01:40] <PaulButler> hmm, in fact the server does have the right version
[01:40] <winbond> how do i get iptables to use a blacklist?
[01:40] <sichilian> re all
[01:41] <PaulButler> ok, i'll look for that option, thanks bascule and Pelo
[01:41] <Pelo> winbond, man iptables
[01:41] <Arafangion> PaulButler: A static build is more work because distros such as Ubuntu do not normally provide static versions of libraries.
[01:41] <Pelo> winbond, you can also try firestarter for a gui frontend
[01:41] <etale> anyone having an overheat problem in feisty? I've been having a problem, esp when I watch videos, and the laptop halts... there seem to be a few 'solutions' on the forums, but I'm curious if a genuine fix is out, because it seems like a pretty widespread problem
[01:42] <Pelo> etale, modulation cpu freq might help
[01:42] <Pelo> modulating
[01:42] <sichilian> LjL > it seems my issue is linked to my router configuration... EFnet detects an open proxy on my side (surely the router)... but i can't figure out how to configure it ...
[01:42] <winbond> Pelo, im using guarddog, but there is nothing for ip blocking
[01:42] <olrrai> how can I unninstall java 1.4 and install 1.5 ?
[01:42] <erUSUL> PaulButler: it is the program you are trying to build mlnet by chance? if it is you can make a static build iirc
[01:42] <erUSUL> olrrai: depends on how you instaled it
[01:42] <PaulButler> erUSUL: actually no, it is a small program I wrote
[01:43] <Pelo> olrrai,  how did you install java 1.4 ?
[01:43] <LjL> sichilian, i don't know either, but make sure  ports 1080 and 8080 are closed on the router, those are the most common proxy ports
[01:43] <erUSUL> PaulButler: nevermind then ;)
[01:43] <Pelo> olrrai,   sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre  for the oter one
[01:43] <olrrai> add//remve
[01:43] <olrrai> ok, thanks
[01:44] <Pelo> olrrai,  you can use add/remove to remove 1.4 and probabaly to install 1.5
[01:44] <Pelo> olrrai, what release of ubuntu are you using ?
[01:44] <olrrai> Festy
[01:44] <olrrai> Feisty
[01:44] <Pelo> olrrai, if you enable backport you can get java6 also
[01:45] <Draggin> Good evening!
[01:45] <SLT> quack
[01:45] <olrrai> Pelo: how?
[01:45] <Draggin> Hey sixpence :)
[01:45] <Draggin> Hiya pelo
[01:45] <Draggin> More questions from me...
[01:46] <Pelo> olrrai,   menu > sytem > admin > software sources  ,  third tab , check the box,  and also while you are in there  check all the boxes on the first tab
[01:46] <SLT> shoot
[01:46] <Draggin> Quite a simple one this time though... (I think)
[01:46] <SLT> ok
[01:46] <Pelo> !enter | Draggin
[01:46] <olrrai> Pelo: ok
[01:46] <ubotu> Draggin: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:46] <SLT> g2g
[01:47] <Draggin> I've got my network devices up and running, as I guess is obvious from the fact that I'm online. But, the network config doesn't seem to stick - I have to tell my ethernet card what connection to use everytime I boot - how can I have this happen automatically?
[01:47] <winbond> Pelo, have u ever looked at the man iptables? u need a phd in unix to use it
[01:47] <secher_> heyhey i tried to format a partition with windows with GParted, looked like it worked, but then i couldn't write to the new partition. Then i opened GParted again and got an error "Can't have overlapping partitions. Segmentation fault (core dumped)" And it says the whole disk is "unallocated" now i cant touch anything, but ubuntu is still running perfectly.... What can i do??
[01:48] <alecwh> How do you "refresh" networks on the NetworkManager? I move around a lot, and it seems like it takes like 10 minutes to update when I leave an area....
[01:48] <Pelo> winbond, you should have a look at the grub manual,  it's enough to make a grown man weep
[01:48] <Pelo> Draggin,  this is a wired connection ?
[01:48] <sichilian> LjL > is the port 8001 a proxy port ?
[01:49] <sichilian> thanks by the way :)
[01:49] <Draggin> Pelo: Yes - normal ethernet card hooked up to my ADSL router via standard ethernet cable
[01:49] <russe11> I have a video DVD that has only 333MB of data on it in the video_ts folder. I'd like to burn this to a CD that would be playable on a DVD player. I can't seem to make it work. Help?
[01:50] <slashzul> set logfile irclog.dat
[01:50] <Pelo> Draggin, and you need to run  pppoeconf everytime ?  look up dsl in the help menus.  there is a command near the bottom of the page to connect on start up
[01:50] <sichilian> i'm being banned from efnet but it seems ok
[01:50] <LjL> sichilian: uhm 8001 is the port that irc clients in Ubuntu use for IRC by default in Feisty, i think (because of an exploit, long story)
[01:51] <LjL> sichilian: try setting 6667 in xchat instead
[01:51] <Pelo> russe11,  copy the big .vob files from that  dvd to your desktop,  install  devede ,  use it to make a vcd  with those files
[01:51] <Draggin> Pelo - I don't really need to 'run' anything as such, but I need to click on the little network icon each time and select the Wired Connection' from the list before it gets an IP from the router
[01:51] <Draggin> Pelo - which help menus do you mean?
[01:51] <Pelo> Draggin,  do you have a wifi card on your comp ?
[01:51] <Pelo> Draggin,  menu > system > help
[01:51] <tsukasa_> how do i find my display number?
[01:52] <Draggin> Pelo: No - like I say, normal ethernet card, standard ethernet cabling
[01:52] <Pelo> tsukasa_, display number ?
[01:52] <sichilian> Ljl > it was open on my firewall since i run VDR and it's using that port
[01:52] <tsukasa_> Pelo: the thing theyre asking for in this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=176636
[01:52] <russe11> Pelo, okay, I'll give it a shot.
[01:52] <Pelo> Draggin, are you sure you selected the correct card when you ran the pppoeconf  setup ?
[01:53] <Draggin> Pelo: Truth be told, I didn't run any setup... It was just there after the Ubuntu installation
[01:53] <Pelo> tsukasa_, hold on
[01:53] <Pelo> Draggin,  do you have a router ?
[01:54] <Pelo> Draggin,  I mean did you need to put in your connection data somewhere  username password ( the isp stuff I mean )
[01:54] <Draggin> Pelo: Yes, ADSL 4 port router, which is supposed to provide my ethernet card with a DHCP assigned IP
[01:54] <tsukasa_> Pelo: nvm i found it
[01:54] <Draggin> Pelo: Oh, yes - that is all fine. Stored in the router and all. Like I say, it works perfectly everytime after selecting the wired network, it's just that it doesn't happen automatically
[01:54] <Pelo> Draggin, hmmm , not sure , in windows did you need to specify a static ip ?
[01:55] <Draggin> Pelo: No - with my ISP it all works with DHCP
[01:55] <Pelo> Draggin,  look in menu > system > admin > network ,  see if you can specify a connection to use, or at least disable the other ones you might have
[01:55] <Nyle> hi
[01:56] <Flats> Is there a difference between GTK2 and GTK+ 2.0?
[01:56] <velko> Flats, no
[01:56] <Pelo> Flats, I assume you need a dependency ? there is no difference,  and you'll probably be instlling libgtk2.0
[01:56] <Flats> I have 2 programs that say I need GTK+ 2.0 but If I look in my package manager is says GTK2 is instaled
[01:56] <Draggin> Pelo - the only other connection listed is modem dial-up, and that already seems to be disabled
[01:56] <Flats> is = it
[01:56] <Pelo> Flats,  install the -dev package
[01:57] <velko> Flats, the only difference i can think of is that gtk2 could referre to a whole range of gtk2.X series
[01:57] <Pelo> Draggin,  check the properties of that connection  an uncheck  the top box if you have it checked
[01:58] <Draggin> pelo: The 'Enable This Connection' check? That is disabled
[01:58] <Flats> Hmmm I don't see a -dev package
[01:58] <Love> join the room
[01:59] <Flats> a lot of GTK2 engines
[01:59] <Pelo> Draggin, not the dialup one I meant the other one,  disable roaming if you have it checked ( I just couldn'T remember the english name earlier)
[02:00] <Draggin> Pelo: Roaming is also disabled on the DHCP connection...
[02:00] <Pelo> Flats, do a search for gtk  and you'll probably see something along the line of  libgtk2.0-dev
[02:01] <Pelo> Draggin, at the top of the network dialog box  there is a drop down box , got anymore locations in there ?
[02:01] <corentin> Hi all
[02:01] <Draggin> Pelo: That dropdown box is completely empty - was just starting to wonder about that... Is there supposed to be something there?
[02:01] <Flats> Pelo: found it dinstalling now, Thanks
[02:01] <marcus> Hello corentin
[02:01] <marcus> 'sup
[02:02] <corentin> Hello marcus :)
[02:02] <Pelo> Draggin,  mine is emplty as well, don't worry about it ,  I was thinking you might have more then just the one location that might ahve caused the issue,
[02:02] <Scunizi> Pelo, do you think Draggin might have to blacklist ipv6?
[02:02] <Draggin> Pelo: What exactly does that location selection do?
[02:03] <Draggin> Hi scunizi :)
[02:03] <Pelo> Draggin, it seems that the problem is you don't have  the correct device selected,  I'M not sure how to get it selected
[02:03] <Pelo> Draggin, probably for ppl with laptops go do wired connections from home and the office
[02:03] <Draggin> Pelo: Okay... I see...
[02:03] <Pelo> Draggin,  when you "need" to select wired connection  what are the other options ?
[02:04] <Scunizi> Hey Draggin...:)  the drop down box is to setup different protocols for wired or wireless connections on the same machine..
[02:04] <Draggin> Pelo: It only actually has one 'connection' listed, which is 'Wired Connection', below that I have the option to Configure Manually
[02:05] <Pelo> Draggin, I would give configure manualy a try and see if that doesn't just  get you to automaticaly connect
[02:05] <Draggin> Pelo: When I select Manual Configuration, it just opens up the network panel - same noe from System > Admin > Network
[02:05] <winbond> is there something like peerguardian for linux?
[02:06] <Draggin> noe = one
[02:06] <Pelo> Draggin,  this is not something you installed yourself is it ? it's part of the default ubuntu install ?
[02:06] <Fluffy-Wuffy> "MoBlock" winbond
[02:06] <Draggin> Pelo: Absolutely - didn't touch any network stuff, this is all as it came packaged with Ubuntu
[02:06] <riaal> anyone using rtorrents watch function
[02:07] <winbond> Fluffy-Wuffy, any other ones u know of?
[02:07] <Fluffy-Wuffy> peerguardian itself is available for ubuntu, but i couldnt get it to work
[02:07] <Pelo> Draggin, I'm out of ideas , have you given the forum a try ? www.ubuntuforums.org ,  use the search feature , not sure what keywords you should be using
[02:08] <Draggin> Pelo: No problem - thanks for the help. I'll go have a look if I can find something :)
[02:08] <winbond> Pelo, i was wearing that when i was  born, now its much worse
[02:08] <Pelo> Draggin, I think I have an other idea
[02:09] <Fluffy-Wuffy> in the "Software Sources" program in the "Third-Party Software" tab is there suppose to be an entry "Debian 4.0 'Etch' - http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/"?
[02:09] <Draggin> Pelo: I'm listening
[02:09] <Fluffy-Wuffy> with Ubuntu 7.04?
[02:09] <winbond> Fluffy-Wuffy, moblock sounds good, since it works with iptables
[02:09] <winbond> Fluffy-Wuffy, thanks
[02:09] <Pelo> winbond,  most ubuntu users I know don'T botther with a firewall and you seem to want to lock down your system tighter then most,  I'M just wondering if you realise you're not using windows anymore
[02:09] <wastrel> iptables
[02:09] <Fluffy-Wuffy> no problem winbond
[02:10] <Fluffy-Wuffy> the peerguardian forum discusses MoBlock for linux since the peerguardian that is available for linux isnt done by peerguardian their selfs i guess
[02:11] <Pelo> Draggin,  I'm taking a guess here that you are not connecting on startup because your session was saved without a connection enabled,  so ,   leave only the apps you want open at startup opened ( including the connection) ,  goto menu > system > prefs > sessions ,  third tab ,  click the save session button,   then try restarting your system
[02:11] <sixpence> Can someone give me a link for installing nvidia drivers with direct rendering?
[02:11] <sixpence> !nivida
[02:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nivida - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:11] <sixpence> !dri
[02:11] <ubotu> dri is direct rendering infrastructure, a framework for allowing direct access to graphics hardware under the X Window System in a safe and efficient manner.
[02:12] <Pelo> !nvidia | sixpence
[02:12] <ubotu> sixpence: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:12] <Draggin> Pelo: That makes a lot of sense... I'll give it a shot... Will obviously have to restart to see if it works... I'll be back in a bit :)
[02:12] <Pelo> Draggin, best of luck
[02:12] <Draggin> Pelo: Thanks :)  I'm sure it'll work - let me check
[02:13] <sixpence> Pelo: I am using the command line, not a GUI.
[02:13] <sixpence> Pelo: I can effectively hand-edit a xorg.conf. Just want a ubuntu-specific howto for package names etc. etc.

[02:14] <Pelo> sixpence,  of you you want to do it the very manual way  you can sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:14] <pike_> corevette: head file.ogg ?? :)
[02:15] <Pelo> corevette, install easytag ?
[02:15] <sixpence> Pelo: =| How do I check if I at least have the right driver for my card?
[02:15] <sixpence> Pelo: Before I go messing with my xorg.conf

[02:16] <Llivavin> Im saving it to my desktop?

[02:17] <Llivavin> its happend with bittorrent also

[02:19] <damian> MrPink whats not working?
[02:19] <Scunizi> Flats,, why download vnc.?  it's already in the system I think.. as Terminal Server Client.

[02:19] <Fluffy-Wuffy> you there Scunizi? :|
[02:19] <Flats> I just don't know where they "install" to
[02:19] <Llivavin> Pelo I get an error saying too many open files
[02:19] <Scunizi> Fluffy-Wuffy, yep
[02:19] <swiftnomad> Pelo, that room isn't opening for me.
[02:19] <Llivavin> On any client i use
[02:19] <Fluffy-Wuffy> can i pm?
[02:19] <Scunizi> ok
[02:19] <damian> hi, where is the config file for the network-config dialog?
[02:19] <sixpence> damian: Lol, good one.
[02:20] <mayeco> I want to share files with ubuntu machines I use samba, exist other native way to share file?
[02:20] <Pelo> Llivavin,   I saw when you asked the first time,  I told you you need to look for a bittornado channel
[02:20] <Scunizi> Fluffy-Wuffy, ok
[02:20] <sixpence> mayeco: ssh could work.
[02:20] <Llivavin> pelo
[02:20] <mayeco> how to?
[02:20] <Llivavin> ITS NOT JUST AN ERROR ON BITTORNADO
[02:20] <Pelo> swiftnomad,  /join #apache , I just tried it
[02:20] <mayeco> sixpence: how I can do that?
[02:20] <tsukasa_> how do i switch displays via hotkeys? ctrl+alt+f7 works to switch one way, but not back
[02:20] <Pelo> Llivavin,  then find another torrent with the same content
[02:20] <sixpence> mayeco: No clue. Just a thought.
[02:21] <Llivavin> Pelo
[02:21] <MrPink> ok let me try and I'll tell you what it says... but it says something about it being the wrong filetype (when I try to install theme in the System preferences)
[02:21] <swiftnomad> maybe its my lag
[02:21] <Llivavin> Its a 6gb torrent of music
[02:21] <swiftnomad> thanks pelo
[02:21] <Llivavin> I doubt i could find another one thats rared..
[02:21] <BigDaddy> hey guys, I don't know if this is a ubuntu question or a KDE question. But I feel kind of stupid with this one. Why can't I change my mouse theme?
[02:21] <zcat[1] > ctrl-alt-Fsomething .. 1 to 6 are usually text terminals, 7 is usually GDM / X
[02:21] <wastrel> mayeco:  if samba works, why not just use that?  there's also NFS or ssh
[02:21] <kitche> tsukasa_ you mean to a cli it's ctrl+alt+f# the highest is f7 which is for X
[02:21] <damian> sixpence huh?
[02:21] <sixpence> BigDaddy: We're not psychic in here. What do you mean 'can't?
[02:21] <Shadow6363> hi, how would i go about renaming all .htm files in a dir to .html files?
[02:21] <mayeco> wastrel: NFS?
[02:21] <wastrel> MrPink:  some themes you have to install manually because they're not set up for automatic installation
[02:22] <zcat[1] > if you log in multiple users via GDM, you get F8, F9, etc..
[02:22] <Pelo> Llivavin,  stop typing enter after my nick when you talk to me, and this isnt,  a torrenting channel,  the problem is either with the torrent or with the client is it not with ubuntu
[02:22] <tsukasa_> kitche: well im trying to get xgl and xorg running simultaneously, which they are, and ctrl alt f7 switches to xorg just fine
[02:22] <mayeco> thanks i'll google that
[02:22] <tsukasa_> kitche: i just cant switch back to xgl
[02:22] <wastrel> mayeco:  network file system.  /etc/exports
[02:22] <BigDaddy> Well, I go to settings, then to perphials, then mouse. I can click on a preview of a mouse theme. But it never changes.
[02:22] <kitche> tsukasa_: well xgl sorta runs on top of Xorg
[02:22] <tsukasa_> kitche: two servers running simultaneously
[02:22] <BigDaddy> I can't even get the Human icon theme. Just a black cursor with white outlines.
[02:22] <zcat[1] > xgl would be f* then, whatever is the next unused virtual console
[02:22] <MrPink> jeez its hard to keep up here... ppl weren't kidding with an "active community" ^
[02:22] <MrPink> ^^
[02:23] <Pelo> Shadow6363,  look in add remove search for rename,  thunar had a nice little app to do that
[02:23] <damian> hi, where is the config file for the network-config dialog?

[02:24] <MonarcaS> hi you. Please help me.. I am installing Ubuntu and the installer says that it will create VG LVM partitions
[02:24] <MonarcaS> what is that?
[02:24] <void^> Llivavin: did you limit the number of connections and the number of open files in bittornado?
[02:24] <damian> thanks  wastrel...so i can add my dns's to there and they wont reset when i boot linnx?

[02:25] <kitche> MonarcaS: it makes one giant partition with slices inside of it
[02:25] <juwor> hi everyone, how i know if i have installed the cgi
[02:25] <MonarcaS> To kitche : I am afraid of it. It says it will create 3 LVM partitions in the installation partition
[02:25] <`lonewolf> morning everyone
[02:25] <wastrel> damian:  dns actually goes in /etc/resolv.conf
[02:26] <Scunizi> `lonewolf, where are you at?  It's late afternoon here.
[02:26] <wastrel> damian:  but if you are running a dhcp client, that will probably overwrite the resolv.conf
[02:26] <MonarcaS> To kitche : I have 4 partitions: 2 (with DATA! - I don't wanna lose that) and 1 swap and 1 ext2
[02:26] <damian> cool thanks:P

[02:27] <magnetron> !sound | jerry_HELP
[02:27] <wastrel> damian:  you could chmod it so it doesn't have write permissions.  but three's probably a better way to do it..
[02:27] <ubotu> jerry_HELP: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[02:28] <MrPink> "Drag and drop this theme into the gdmsetup tool to install"   where do I find the gdmsetup ?
[02:28] <Pelo> jerry_HELP,   you started with driver and now you are talking about codecs ,  not the same thing
[02:28] <damian> cool thats fine with me but cant the permissions be changed back somehow via whatevers doing the dhcp stuff??
[02:28] <jerry_HELP> no?
[02:29] <jerry_HELP> well, can i just get both then?
[02:29] <MeRodent> MrPink, system admin loginwindow

[02:50] <monkeyBox> Hi all.  I've switched from Gentoo to Ubuntu recently, and really love it.  Though one thing I am finding is difficult is how I can "hack" some of my existing apps without royally screwing things up.  In gentoo this was fairly easy as you could have a portage "overlay" and store your "hacked" packages in there. If wanted to apply a patch to, say, a core gnome application, what is the safest way to do so?
[02:50] <Pelo> gameon1, I can't realy help, the only suggestion I can make is find the  webpage for janusvm ( try google) and see if they have a irc channel or a forum or a faq page
[02:50] <steel_lady> Hello! I would kindly ask for your attention and help!

[03:01] <MeRodent> firedandjunk, you can select tools document statistics in gedit.
[03:01] <cwrann> swiftnomad: do you no why flashplugin-nonfree would have no installation candidate
[03:01] <_2> insan so much so.   that being handed a new lappy with vesta on it i never booted the M$ crap to look at it.  just dropped a linux cd in and turned the power on.
[03:01] <cwrann> ubotu I don't think I use automatix
[03:02] <Hail_Spacecake> even read-only file systems should let you cd into them, no?
[03:02] <firedandjunk> MeRodent, ??
[03:02] <insan> _2, sorry.. i'm not glad i was not helpfull...
[03:02] <MeRodent> Hail_Spacecake, try /media/windows  <- or whatever the disk is called.
[03:02] <nonewmsgs> help my grub is all mucked up

[03:04] <skel> can anyone get dimdim running on ubuntu? (www.dimdim.com)  just curious
[03:04] <cwrann> should I have libflash-mozplugin installed?
[03:04] <kbj> Hello everyone, I just installed a Sunix sata controller card in my ubuntu feisty machine and Im trying to format the drive attached to this card, but GParted just keeps doing :"Apply peding operations" forever and ever... Anyone knows what to do? :D
[03:04] <MeRodent> Hail_Spacecake, so does it appear in /mnt then?
[03:04] <Hail_Spacecake> I can't tell, the system won't let me ls or cd into it
[03:04] <insan> _2, if all of us help... all'l going to be ok... they will release that damn driver free..
[03:05] <skel> kbj: how long is forever and ever? gparted takes a long ass time
[03:05] <firedandjunk> MeRodent, here is an example of what I am after but this is web based http://www.txt.bell.ca/bell/en/
[03:05] <MeRodent> Hail_Spacecake, you should still be able to cd to /mnt even if it's empty
[03:05] <skel> kbj: how big are the partitions?
[03:05] <kbj> skel: I did it with a 500gig a week ago and it surely was faster than this and this is 400gig
[03:05] <Hail_Spacecake> MeRodent: it shouldn't be empty since I just mounted it there
[03:05] <Hail_Spacecake> but in any case
[03:05] <Hail_Spacecake> when I try cd /mnt
[03:06] <Hail_Spacecake> the system returns
[03:06] <Hail_Spacecake> bash: cd: /mnt: Permission denied
[03:06] <kbj> skel: but this is 400gig.. how long should that take? I think I have tried 1hour+
[03:06] <kbj> skel: im doing s ext3 partition
[03:06] <MeRodent> have you tried sudo cd /mnt ?
[03:06] <skel> kbj: hmm ok.. have you tried with CLI commands instead of gparted?
[03:07] <skel> kbj: I've spent 45+ minutes waiting for about 60gb of ntfs to resize with gparted.. thats why I ask
[03:07] <Etzerd> hello all
[03:07] <kbj> skel: Nope I havent.. im not that much into ubuntu? Would that be  "sudo mkfs.ext3 /dec/sde1"?
[03:07] <Etzerd> ?
[03:07] <skel> kbj: that'd be it =] 
[03:07] <kbj> *v
[03:07] <Etzerd> when the next version of ubuntu will be release?
[03:07] <kbj> skel: Ill give it a try
[03:07] <benzs_s> in about a month i think
[03:07] <kiff_> 25 or 24 october
[03:07] <Hail_Spacecake> MeRodent: yeah
[03:07] <MeRodent> firedandjunk, have you tried smssend?
[03:08] <kbj> skel : can I just cancel the pending operation currently running?
[03:08] <Hail_Spacecake> that returns "cd not found"
[03:08] <Etzerd> kiff: that is a long time
[03:08] <mojo> excuse me, can I ask a question here?
[03:08] <skel> kbj: whats it in the middle of doing right now?
[03:08] <firedandjunk> MeRodent, cause you can't count characters with thunderbird right?
[03:08] <kbj> skel: trying to format it with gparted

I'm just using Firefox and it together with Xorg go to 100%, if I restart firefox it doesn't get better (other apps get bogged down too so it's not just firefox, I just happen to use that the most), killing X doesn't seem to help much either
[03:09] <stepomaticc_> mojo no questions please
[03:09] <mojo> okay then
[03:09] <Madpilot> mojo, don't ask to ask, just ask. stepomaticc_, not funny...
[03:09] <mojo> my question is: How to change the resolution of grub menu?
[03:09] <kbj> skel: Im trying.. now it just searches for drives.. maybe I f***ed something up :/ maybe a boot will fix it
[03:09] <mojo> you know, I hate it when grub menu is not at vga=791
[03:09] <stepomaticc_> Madpilot: sorry
[03:10] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell mojo about grub
[03:10] <skel> kbj: is this the same disk the OS is on?
[03:10] <kbj> skel: nope just a new disk for storage
[03:10] <cwrann> could media player connectivity be the problem?
[03:10] <mojo> ubotu: can you show me how to change resolution of grub?
[03:10] <skel> kbj: ok you should be fine
[03:10] <Talcite> hey guys, when you set permissions with chmod, does that apply to root users?
[03:11] <kbj> skel: funny thing is I did this about 10 times now with other drives which worked fine
[03:11] <mojo> huh?!
[03:11] <skel> kbj: but different controller this time?
[03:11] <mojo> ubotu shows no answer
[03:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about shows no answer - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[03:11] <kbj> skel: yep new sata controller. no more space on onboard ide & sata
[03:11] <Madpilot> mojo, ubotu is a bot. did it send you a PM with a couple of grub-related URLs?

[03:14] <Photocopy> When I installed Xubuntu 7.04 several months ago, it installed well but didn't detect my soundcard. and "asoundconf list" shows no cards. But When I boot SLAX KillBill edition, my sound all works fine, so durrrr! obviously i have some sort of way to make this silly soundcard work..

[03:16] <kbj> jimcooncat: So I should be fine if I wait a bit?
[03:16] <Benalex> Good Day to you all.... Can I ask a question?
[03:16] <Photocopy> you just did
[03:16] <pramur> !justask | Benalex
[03:16] <ubotu> Benalex: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:16] <jimcooncat> Photocopy: mostly it's automatic, maybe through udev?
[03:16] <Benalex> Can I have the repos available offline.. like downloading them to a DVDs?
[03:16] <Photocopy> jimcooncat; er, okay, whats udev?
[03:17] <Photocopy> benalex: ouch, why?
[03:17] <pramur> Benalex: Yes,
[03:17] <jimcooncat> kbj: you could run the badblocks app on it
[03:17] <Benalex> pramur.... from where?
[03:17] <kbj> jimcooncat: Dont know that one.. GUI?
[03:17] <Photocopy> jimcooncat,... ?
[03:17] <Benalex> Note... I need the official repos
[03:17] <pramur> Benalex: Hm.. I think you can search it.. according to your location, the nearest...
[03:18] <jimcooncat> kbj, it's older software
[03:18] <kbj> jimcooncat: Not so smooth with command nice stuff yet.. I dont use this as often
[03:18] <kbj> *line
[03:18] <ShackJack> I have a disk that checks out fine with e2fsck but when doing a bad block check (-C) it get's hung up on all  these Buffer I/o errors.. been churning away for a couple hours now, slowly advancing the blocks - is it fixing the disk, or should I try another approach? (seems fine when I skip and go into O/S?)
[03:18] <jimcooncat> Photocopy udev manages your devices.
[03:19] <Photocopy> and i run this hwo?
[03:19] <Photocopy> how*
[03:19] <Benalex> I don't care for the location.... I have a good bandwidth
[03:19] <kbj> jimcooncat: Ok can that app fix this or should I just skip trying on this disk? It still hangs
[03:19] <pramur> Benalex: ftp://tuma.ui.edu/pub/ubuntu-repository/7.04/
[03:19] <Scunizi> ShackJack, is it a SATA drive?
[03:19] <pramur> Benalex: try it...
[03:19] <ShackJack> Scunizi: I belive so - in my notebook...
[03:19] <jimcooncat> kbj: bad blocks will mark the blocks as bad and skip over them
[03:19] <Photocopy> jimcooncat how do i run this?
[03:20] <jimcooncat> kbj: then your file system will know to skip over them too
[03:20] <Benalex> This is a very very slow mirror.... hardly getting more than 30KB/sec. which is slow like hell for downloading 16Gbytes
[03:20] <kbj> jimcooncat: nice where do I find and how to use this app? D:
[03:20] <kbj> :D
[03:20] <jimcooncat> Photocopy, it's nothing to run, you have to have the right device driver loaded into it for your gizmo
[03:20] <Scunizi> ShackJack, I had the same issue on my desktop.. I can't remember how I got around it .. but then I'm also still using Dapper.
[03:20] <Photocopy> ugh
[03:20] <skel> kbj: if you do fdisk -l /dev/sde  does it show a linux type partition?
[03:21] <pramur> Benalex: have you tried google? :D
[03:21] <ShackJack> Scunizi: Don't tease me like that! :)
[03:21] <jimcooncat> kbj it's already on your ubuntu setup
[03:21] <Benalex> yeah.... all the results are leading to the server you mentioned
[03:21] <kbj> skel: how do I cancel the ruynning operation in terminal?
[03:21] <Photocopy> jimcooncat: you know how most hardware detection things can find the model of the hhardware? I cant get a driver without knowing what sound card i have
[03:21] <skel> kbj: ctrl-c
[03:21] <Scunizi> ShackJack, I may have installed on one of my different drive.. doesn't help you though.. sorry. :/)
[03:21] <Benalex> besides I don;t know if these are the official or not
[03:21] <kbj> skel: nothign happens
[03:21] <jimcooncat> Photocopy: sorry, not my area
[03:21] <XXer> Does anyone know of any program that will convert VOB, mpeg4 ex.... video formats into Divx or Xvid? It has to be somewhat ez to use because im vary new to linux
[03:22] <skel> kbj: try ctrl-z
[03:22] <skel> kbj: then if that works do jobs -l
[03:22] <Photocopy> jimcooncat: nothing is anybody's area anymore
[03:22] <Photocopy> =(
[03:22] <ShackJack> Scunizi: I just reformatted, so you would think the formatting does a check beforehand for any bad blocks...
[03:22] <skel> kbj: it should give you the pid for the process
[03:22] <jimcooncat> Photocopy: what kind of hardware?
[03:22] <kbj> skel: nothing works :/ and fdisk -l says cannot open dev/sde
[03:22] <skel> kbj: then you can kill -9 that pid
[03:22] <Photocopy> jimcooncat: a soundcard, i cannot get any more specific than that cause i dont know WHAT soundcard
[03:22] <magic_pinguim> Hello
[03:23] <skel> kbj: /dev/sde  ?
[03:23] <pramur> Benalex: try google?
[03:23] <kbj> skel: Everything just frooze I think.. nothing happens typing anything.. tried jobs-l aswell
[03:23] <ramza3> if I do a "Open With" on a particular file, how can I edit that particular list, mine is really messed up for a particular extension
[03:23] <skel> kbj: =[
[03:23] <Benalex> pramur...I tried it,, all the results are leading to Tuma.ui.edu.... I want another mirror
[03:23] <jonnymac> why oh xhy you beautiful people can't I play divx internet movies
[03:23] <Benalex> pramur...are Tuma.ui.edu the official repos?
[03:24] <kbj> skel: I restarted it :D
[03:24] <ShackJack> ramza3: Click on file properties - then open with tab you can maniopulate - will take effect for all fiiles..
[03:24] <pramur> Benalex: sorry,, but tuma is enough for me.. Sorry, out of ideas...
[03:24] <cdm10> Help! Ubuntu said my disk is full, so I deleted some files. It still said it was full, so I rebooted, and now I can't log in! I went to Windows, and Windows says the disk is full, too. What's wrong with it?
[03:24] <jimcooncat> Photocopy: since it didn't register automatically, you'd have to know the model. If there's no stamp on the metal part that's showing, then you'd have to take it apart and hope it says on the card somewhere
[03:24] <ShackJack> jonnymac: Need the gstreamer plugins for that...
[03:24] <kbj> jimcooncat: Whats the app called and how do I use it?
[03:24] <Benalex> pramur... OK... tuma is the official repos?
[03:24] <pramur> yes
[03:24] <pramur> Benalex: I've tried it
[03:25] <Photocopy> jimcooncat: screw that im moving off xubuntu to something else that is so skilled as to detect my hardware
[03:25] <jimcooncat> kbj it's badblocks. run it from the terminal. Before running it, run "man badblocks" to find out
[03:25] <Benalex> pramur.... Thank YOu :) appreciate your help
[03:25] <cmak> on feisty im trying to install a gutsy packet and get an error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgcc1 (its installed tough). any idea?
[03:25] <jimcooncat> Photocopy: if you got Windows on that computer you can run a full scandisk instead
[03:25] <void^> Photocopy: lspci?
[03:26] <jonnymac> but that's the thing, I have gstreamer plugins but stage6 movies won't play in firefox...
[03:26] <jonnymac> Or isn't that possible?
[03:27] <ramza3> ShackJack, crap, I cant remove some of them.  "Remove" is greyed out
[03:27] <ShackJack> cmak: It's probably a differnt version...
[03:27] <cmak> ShackJack: can i force the installation?
[03:28] <void^> jonnymac: fwiw, it works with the totem-gstreamer plugin for me
[03:28] <ShackJack> ramza3: Shouldn't be... But you have to have at least one program listed there otherwise you should be able to remove...
[03:28] <Photocopy> mvoid^lspci?????
[03:29] <ramza3> ShackJack, is that "per file" or per file extension.  It looks like it is per file
[03:29] <Photocopy> jimcooncat: i dont have windows
[03:29] <ShackJack> cmak: The version would have to be in the repos you are using (Feisty) which it is likely not, otherwise you have to get deb or compile which may screw up other things..
[03:29] <void^> Photocopy: i was under the impression you wanted a way to identify your soundcard. assuming it is a pci device, lspci will likely help.
[03:29] <Photocopy> void^    thats a command?
[03:29] <void^> ..yes
[03:29] <ShackJack> ramza3: THe Open with tab open clicking a file properties will set for all those file types... There needs to be more than one Program listed to be able to remove one or set another as default..
[03:30] <Photocopy> i see my video card, network card, usb controller, many other things, no sound card
[03:30] <void^> Photocopy: how old is that system?
[03:30] <Photocopy> void^   the thing is, no sound card was ever DETECTED by xubuntu
[03:30] <Photocopy> very
[03:31] <void^> Photocopy: might be an isa soundcard. very ugly, not plug&pray detectable.
[03:31] <ramza3> ShackJack, you know how to change the mimetype for a particular file; it looks like it is based on contents in the file and not just the file extension
[03:31] <void^> Photocopy: easiest fix: get scredriver. open case.
[03:31] <Photocopy> its a p2 that was given to me with no OS, so i threw Xubuntu on and use it for the gimp
[03:31] <Photocopy> and now i wanna play CDs on it
[03:31] <cdm10> Photocopy: You know, the GIMP works on Windows.
[03:32] <cmak> ShackJack: i think the software will work with that older version of its dependency.
[03:32] <Photocopy> cdm10: i already stated it had no OS on it, as well that I dont have windows
[03:32] <KurtKraut> I'm having problems when trying to set /etc/fstab to mount an ext3 partition with rw permissions. How should I do it ?
[03:32] <Photocopy> in any way shape or form
[03:32] <cdm10> Photocopy: I'm talking about on another computer, if you have it.
[03:32] <InSaNiTyIG> need help. i have a thinkpad T42. when i close the lid and reopen, the display remains blank and i have to reboot the computer. (i have had the power settings to 'do nothing' and 'blank screen' none of which works)
[03:32] <Photocopy> void^its an acer.
[03:32] <Photocopy> cdm10, no other working computer
[03:32] <cdm10> Photocopy: ah, ok.
[03:32] <ShackJack> cmak: I beleive you can force install if it's a deb... see man dpkg for deets...
[03:32] <void^> Photocopy: the brand of the computer does not say anything about the hardware inside
[03:33] <Photocopy> void^ I didnt say it did.
[03:33] <cmak> ShackJack: thanks, doing that
[03:33] <Photocopy> void^ acers, while you can get in the case, are hell to get any farther into
[03:33] <Photocopy> with screws that have metal walls less than a CM infront of the screwhead
[03:33] <panosru> Hi! I'm new to Linux and Ubuntu i was windows user. So i make mistakes.... my mistake now is that i typed in terminal sudo chown -R panosru /
[03:34] <ShackJack> Photocopy:  lspci | grep -i audio    is a handy way to filer lspci, in case you missed the audio controller in the list
[03:34] <panosru> and now i have many problems :( can can i do to fix it?
[03:34] <Photocopy> etc, they're built for schools or some stupid noise so kids cannot steal parts?
[03:34] <Photocopy> shackjack ill try that but idk if it will work cause apparently its not a pci card
[03:35] <Photocopy> shackjack: says nothing, goes straight back to awaiting a command
[03:35] <ShackJack> Photocopy: Ahhh... well doesn't have to be necessarily, just on a PCI bridge (on board, etc...)... The soundcard is an actual separate card then?
[03:35] <Photocopy> yes im fairly sure it is
[03:35] <sandy> can anyone tell me,i need a software which records the only sound from the video
[03:35] <panosru> no one? :(
[03:35] <Madpilot> panosru, after something like that, you're pretty much going to have to reinstall...
[03:36] <Photocopy> i cant really see it that well under this SHEET OF METAL THAT I CANNOT GET TO THE SCREWS WHICH HOLD IT IN PLACE
[03:36] <Photocopy> not yelling at you btw, yelling at the computers difficultu of opening
[03:36] <InSaNiTyIG> can anyone help me with my display problem?

[03:36] <panosru> f....k.... why i do stupid things like that??? :/
[03:36] <mboldisc> I was going to ask that.
[03:36] <InSaNiTyIG> i did like twice here goes

[03:37] <Photocopy> nothing>?
[03:37] <panosru> mboldisc, i just tough that if i do this i will stop getting this screen to put password
[03:37] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: its usually due to notebook going into suspend on LID close
[03:37] <sandy> can anyone tell me,i need a software which records the only sound from the video
[03:38] <heguru> sandy: you can use mencoder
[03:38] <alice_> g
[03:38] <InSaNiTyIG> how can i fix that?
[03:38] <alice_> g
[03:38] <tylo> sandy: or auadacity
[03:38] <tylo> sandy audacity
[03:38] <sandy> thanks but are the simple
[03:38] <c_olin> what is the command to view running processes?

[03:38] <tylo> sandy: you can set that up to take input from your soundcard instead of a microphone through a dropdown menu
[03:38] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: do you see the battery icon in the tray?
[03:38] <Photocopy> you dont got any other ideas?
[03:38] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: right click at it and them preferences
[03:39] <InSaNiTyIG> yes
[03:39] <InSaNiTyIG> i see it
[03:39] <panosru> mboldisc, i just tough that if i do this i will stop getting this screen to put password
[03:39] <panosru> sorry
[03:39] <void^> Photocopy: hm.. i faintly remember there used to be pnpdump that could be used to detect some (few) pnp-capable isa cards, but it doesn#t seem to be easily available on ubuntu these days..
[03:39] <tylo> sandy: audacity looks itimidating, but once you find out which option in the dropdown menu is correct, it's not so bad. Just record, and then save as MP3.
[03:39] <panosru> mboldisc, if i put the disk and repair the OS ?
[03:39] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: do you see the option "When laptop lid is closed"
[03:39] <panosru> will fix it?
[03:39] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: what is the current setting?
[03:39] <sandy> tylo i dont want to use mic or any other dev i want to record sound with its playing (vidoe)
[03:39] <Photocopy> void^     lol im on xubuntu if that even complicates matters? i really dont know.
[03:40] <Photocopy> here, i have an idea
[03:40] <heguru> sandy: you can use mencoder to extract the audio from a video into a file
[03:40] <Photocopy> ill be back in any matter of 5 minutes to four months, just wait here
[03:40] <Photocopy> =D
[03:40] <cdm10> I'm having some weird issues with my filesystem. My programs started acting up, and then when I tried to save something, it told me that my filesystem was full. I deleted some big files, but it still showed that it was full. I tried restarting, and found that I couldn't log in. I then went to Windows, and looked at the Linux drive (I have the Ext3 driver) and it said it was full, too. I...
[03:40] <sandy> ok
[03:40] <slackern> sandy: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&postid=628821#post628821 this is a good forum for information about audio/video encoding and extracting
[03:40] <cdm10> ...tried deleting things from windows, but it hasn't changed anything.
[03:40] <heguru> sandy: just do man mencoder
[03:40] <InSaNiTyIG> heguru: do nothing
[03:41] <sandy> heguru thanks man
[03:41] <Photocopy> void^brb
[03:41] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: then its not suspend issue
[03:41] <InSaNiTyIG> i know
[03:41] <heguru> sandy: any time :)
[03:41] <DarkDisaster_> Why since 6.10 ubuntu doesn't support my ATI x1400? I'm stuck at this distro!
[03:42] <JParishy> Okay, I need some help
[03:42] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: i would need to see some log files to help you further
[03:42] <mdj> Is there any reason not to use the 7.x versions?
[03:42] <JParishy> I have the Live CD running on my macbook
[03:42] <pike_> cdm10: you can boot to recovery
[03:42] <JParishy> and I am at the step to partition my drive manually
[03:42] <panosru> mboldisc, ?
[03:42] <ShackJack> mdj: No, they work great ! 7.10 out in a couple weeks ;)
[03:42] <KurtKraut> DarkDisaster_: the support of a graphic card does not depend on the distro. It is a matter of driver, that is built by the card manufacturer
[03:42] <JParishy> But I dont' want to lose my mac os x installation
[03:42] <mdj> Awesome. This download just isn't going fast enough for me! :P
[03:43] <InSaNiTyIG> heguru: what do you need to see?
[03:43] <JParishy> So, how would I go about partitioning it correctly?
[03:43] <ShackJack> DarkDisaster_: I have X1400 ... used with fglrx driver (closed source)... default drivers a little "finicky"
[03:43] <heguru> JParishy: when you start the installation it asks you if you want to resize your partition, I don't know if it will resize mac os x partitions though
[03:44] <JParishy> Why not?

[03:46] <Draggin> Hiya - new problems now - Pelo was helping me earlier with my network connection that wouldn't reconnect automatically - now I've run into new problems (and the old one isn't resolved yet either). I tried saving the session after setting everything the way it should be, but it still didn't help. On top of that, booting now seems to take a bit longer and sometimes the little network icon...
[03:46] <ShackJack> I love patient people...
[03:46] <Draggin> ...isn't available. Is there anyway to restore the session to the way it was before the last save?
[03:46] <jcnorman> ubotu - thanks - I'll paste there
[03:46] <JParishy> That link above has some good directions, I'll follow that for now
[03:47] <JParishy> Thanks heguru
[03:47] <cdm10> I think my connection was dead when I asked this question: I started having some weird issues with programs, and I found that my filesystem was full. I deleted some big files, but it still remained full. I rebooted, and found I couldn't log in. Then I went to Windows, and looked at the drive (I have the Ext3 driver for Windows) and it too said it was full. How can I fix this?
[03:47] <mdj> I have to say, you ubuntu fellas are extremely friendly.
[03:47] <heguru> JParishy: welcome any time :)
[03:47] <pike_> cdm10: id fsck the partition
[03:48] <cdm10> pike_: Will do.
[03:48] <cdm10> pike_: I'll be back when that's done
[03:48] <pike_> cdm10: ive ran into that a few times on ext3 i didnt fsck it or anything but for some reason after a few boots it went away
[03:48] <ripkun> I'm having trouble booting ubuntu, I partitioned my second hard drive as /home during installation, but during boot up terminal tells me that it failed to check my filesystems
[03:48] <JParishy> I have an installation on a solo machine, but i'd like to dualboot this macbook
[03:48] <Madpilot> cdm10, depending on how you deleted stuff, it could still be lurking in your Trash
[03:48] <cdm10> Madpilot: no, checked that. Checked it from 'doze as well
[03:48] <pike_> hmm.. lost and found maybe?
[03:49] <cdm10> pike_: I deleted stuff from Windows as well, and it didn't change anything.
[03:49] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: you can join me on #ubuntu-t42 to try to solve your issue
[03:49] <cdm10> I'll try fsck-ing it.
[03:49] <cdm10> be back soon...
[03:49] <jcnorman> ubotu - has been pasted
[03:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about has been pasted - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:49] <InSaNiTyIG> so if its not a suspend issue, what could it be? what do you need to see?
[03:49] <cdm10> jcnorman: Ubotu is a bot, I told the bot to tell you about pastebin.

[03:50] <jcnorman> thanks cdm10 - can u help?
[03:50] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: well we don't yet know if its a suspend issue or not
[03:50] <cdm10> jcnorman: Actually, I'm busy trying to fix a problem of my own :)
[03:50] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: for starters i would disable GDM and then check the same issue again
[03:50] <jcnorman> I should have known from the name'
[03:50] <cdm10> jcnorman: Any other time I'd be happy to help. Maybe later, if you're still here.
[03:50] <cdm10> jcnorman: yeah, but don't worry, a lot of people make that mistake.
[03:50] <jcnorman> OK - thanks - anyone else?
[03:50] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: if its causing the same problem from the console as well, then we can check the log files
[03:50] <yeniklasorr> How can I block a single IP ? I'm using ubuntu-server.
[03:50] <Llivavin> I seem to be only able to hear sound from one program at a time.. can anyone help?
[03:51] <heguru> jcnorman: can you tell me your problem again?
[03:51] <heguru> yeniklasorr: sudo iptables -I INPUT 1 -s <ip you want to block> -j DROP
[03:51] <pike_> yeniklasorr: hosts.deny is handy for that though im not sure if you need to setup anything else. maybe just point it to localhost in hosts file ;p
[03:51] <jcnorman> yes - sound problem - info is in pastebin
[03:52] <Llivavin> jcnorman?
[03:52] <jcnorman> yes?
[03:52] <Llivavin> Nvm
[03:52] <InSaNiTyIG> ok so im new to linux, how do i do this?
[03:53] <Veinor> do what?
[03:53] <ripkun> I'm having trouble booting ubuntu, I partitioned my second hard drive as /home during installation, but during boot up terminal tells me that it failed to check my filesystems
[03:53] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: are you on the linux machine right now?
[03:53] <Llivavin> Can anyone help me with my sound problem -.-
[03:53] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: if not then just press Ctrl+Alt+F1
[03:53] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: login to the shell
[03:53] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: type: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:53] <yeniklasorr> heguru : Then how can I see which ips I blocked - How to allow a blocked ip ?
[03:54] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: then try to close the lid and open again
[03:54] <jcnorman> llivavin - start with https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[03:54] <heguru> yeniklasorr: you can type: sudo iptables -L INPUT -v
[03:54] <heguru> yeniklasorr: it will list all the firewall rules
[03:54] <yeniklasorr> ok
[03:54] <heguru> yeniklasorr: including the list of IP's you have blocked
[03:55] <KurtKraut> How can I set a ext3 partition with rw rights to all users in /etc/fstab ? I'm following tutorials but I still have no rw rights
[03:55] <heguru> yeniklasorr: but remember that this way the IP's are blocked ONLY for the current session, i.e. after reboot they are allowed again
[03:55] <heguru> KurtKraut: do you want to give everyone rights on every folder?
[03:55] <Puppy_> How do i get a non ipod mp3 player working. I have a Samsung k5 and I don't know how to get it to work. I would like to use it in something like Amarok.
[03:55] <Grell_> http://ghosttasers.ytmnd.com/
[03:55] <InSaNiTyIG> i went into services manager and stoped the service now im at a console screen. im trying to start gdm but it keeps telling me i need to be root and im trying to login as root with the only password thats been used
[03:55] <pramur> how do I install new guifications theme in gaim?
[03:56] <jrib> !permissions > KurtKraut (read the private message from ubotu)
[03:56] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: don't start it now, first check by closing the lid and opening
[03:56] <jrib> KurtKraut: you set permissions on ext3 using chmod and chown, the bot should have sent you some more details
[03:56] <KurtKraut> heguru: I'd like first to have rw permissions to my user. But I only get root allowed to write in the partition
[03:56] <Llivavin> jcnorman I can hear music sometimes out of it
[03:56] <Llivavin> and sometimes i cant
[03:56] <Arafangion> InSaNiTyIG: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start
[03:56] <Arafangion> InSaNiTyIG: Though, perhaps you might need to use restart, rather than start.
[03:56] <Llivavin> or for instance if i want to put more then one program that has sound though my headset i can only hear one.
[03:57] <KurtKraut> jrib: I've already did a chown in the /media/sda3. This folder belongs to my user. And I still have no writing permissions.
[03:57] <jcnorman> did u try double click on speaker in task bar?
[03:57] <jrib> KurtKraut: what is the output of 'ls -ld /media/sda3'
[03:57] <InSaNiTyIG> thanks
[03:57] <JParishy_> That was odd :/
[03:57] <KurtKraut> jrib: drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2007-09-16 17:02 /media/sda3
[03:57] <JParishy_> I got disconnected and had to use a different computer
[03:57] <jrib> KurtKraut: still owned by root then
[03:57] <KurtKraut> jrib: when I do a sudo mount -a it is changed to root ownership again
[03:57] <InSaNiTyIG> im trying to get the hang of this. i apologize in advance for seeming stupid
[03:58] <Puppy_> so can someone help me get my Samsung k5 mp3 player working?
[03:58] <yeniklasorr> heguru : OK. I actially want block some attackers. How can I find their Ip adresess? with "netstat -a" ? Or is it possible to block users automaticly if there is too many query. If you explain or sign to a article I will be glad.
[03:58] <jrib> KurtKraut: that doesn't happen on ext3 unless something is really messed up.  Try 'sudo chown $USER: /media/sda3' then
[03:58] <Llivavin> jcnorman  hrm?
[03:58] <ripkun> I'm having trouble booting ubuntu, I partitioned my second hard drive as /home during installation, but during login gdm tells me my /home partition doesn't exist
[03:59] <jcnorman> yes I'm here - just don't have any more suggestions other than to check that all channels have volume
[03:59] <KurtKraut> jrib: now it is: drwxrwxrwx 2 ktk ktk 4096 2007-09-16 17:14 /media/sda3
[03:59] <heguru> yeniklasorr: you need snort, which can automatically block ip's based on their activity, you can also create rules using iptables that block ip's based on number of packets sent per second
[03:59] <KurtKraut> jrib: let me do sudo mount -a
[03:59] <jrib> KurtKraut: you did more than I said then, but ok
[03:59] <Draggin> Gee whizz... I get lagged out a lot...
[03:59] <Llivavin> jcnorman they all doo
[03:59] <InSaNiTyIG> now what do i do to see whats the problem now?
[03:59] <Draggin> Anyway -- let me repeat my question:
[03:59] <KurtKraut> jrib: now it is root again: drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2007-09-16 17:02 /media/sda3
[03:59] <Draggin> Hiya - new problems now - Pelo was helping me earlier with my network connection that wouldn't reconnect automatically - now I've run into new problems (and the old one isn't resolved yet either). I tried saving the session after setting everything the way it should be, but it still didn't help. On top of that, booting now seems to take a bit longer and sometimes the little network icon...
[03:59] <Draggin> ...isn't available. Is there anyway to restore the session to the way it was before the last save?
[03:59] <jrib> KurtKraut: pastebin the output of 'mount'
[03:59] <jcnorman> I'm trying to find a solution to my own sound pproblem - no sound whatsoever
[04:00] <Zombine> So... let say that I installed some mp3 codcs, but still can play mp3s on Amarok or Rhythymbox...
[04:00] <Puppy_> can someone please help me get my samsung k5 working?
[04:00] <Zombine> What is with that?
[04:00] <Llivavin> Zombine Just go install VLC for music and use mplayer for video
[04:00] <jrib> Puppy_: most mp3 players work as usb mass storage devices (or can be switched to that mode), so you just plug it in and it gets mounted
[04:00] <zcat[1] > beep!!!
[04:01] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: ok what did you do? let me explain what I want you to check. First switch of gdm (switch of graphics) then once at the text console close the lid and open again. Does it blank and never come back? if its coming back on text console then its your graphics problem
[04:01] <yeniklasorr> heguru : Thank you so much. Last thing do you recomment to me ubuntu-server? Or any other like centos ?
[04:01] <jrib> !mp3 > Zombine (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:01] <Puppy_> jrib: I don't understand. it does not come up on the desktop.
[04:01] <heguru> yeniklasorr: what do you want to do on this server
[04:01] <jrib> Puppy_: which part do you not understand?
[04:01] <KurtKraut> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38186/
[04:01] <heguru> yeniklasorr: if its just a firewall then you have other better choices
[04:01] <yeniklasorr> heguru : Web server
[04:01] <Llivavin> Hrm
[04:01] <CineScope> the mini-pci to pci card i got from ebay came in the mail today; i installed an intel 2915 based mini-pci card in the desktop and is it much better than the previous realtek8185/ndiswrapper mess.

[04:02] <yeniklasorr> heguru : apache-php-mysql
[04:02] <yeniklasorr> ok thanks
[04:02] <Puppy_> jrib: I want to use it something like Armarok.
[04:02] <InSaNiTyIG> whats the command to stop it again?
[04:02] <heguru> yeniklasorr: ubuntu is a good choice for this
[04:02] <yeniklasorr> heguru : thank you
[04:02] <jrib> Puppy_: type 'mount' and see if it is mounted somewhere
[04:02] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: from the terminal type: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:02] <JParishy_> I'm assuming to pick manul?
[04:02] <Puppy_> jrib: ok
[04:03] <zcat[1] > I think samsung is one of those players.. spent ages with one last month, it was a total pain even getting it working in Windows, let alone linux..
[04:03] <CineScope> has anyone seen any mini-pcie to pcie x1 converter cards to add an intel 4965 card
[04:03] <jrib> KurtKraut: what is the output of 'mount'?
[04:03] <ripkun> I'm having trouble booting ubuntu, I partitioned my second hard drive as /home during installation, but during login gdm tells me my /home partition doesn't exist, plz any suggestions? T_T

[04:04] <Photocopy> come ON
[04:04] <Photocopy> so suddenly he isnt willing to help me anymore?
[04:04] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: so you stopped gdm and tested by closing the lid and it still blanks? this does seem to be a suspend issue
[04:05] <Photocopy> uuuuugh that what i hate about getting help is the helper just disappears and i have to start over with someone else
[04:05] <InSaNiTyIG> yes
[04:05] <KurtKraut> Photocopy: don't be harsh... be friendly with those are trying or tried to help.
[04:05] <InSaNiTyIG> still blank
[04:05] <jrib> Puppy_: then your player doesn't seem to get mounted.  If you can't switch it to UMS mode, then you should google for your player and "linux" and see what comes up
[04:05] <JParishy_> Anyone have any ideas?
[04:05] <Puppy_> jrib: what is UMS mode?
[04:05] <Photocopy> kurtkraut: well he told me to tell him when i found the soundcard and now hes all silent

[04:06] <JParishy> I don't see any options to resize the partition in this installer

[04:07] <KurtKraut> jrib: that worked. Thanks :D But how this can be preserved after boot ?
[04:07] <zcat[1] > yeah, that would be it. Really pissed me off. There's a way to do it in Linux, but it's like pulling teeth at the moment. Not easy

[04:08] <jrib> KurtKraut: try unmounting and mounting again if you want
[04:08] <heguru> JParishy: Yes you cannot resize using the installer u have to do it BEFORE running ubuntu live cd, from Mac OSX itself

[04:23] <Pelo> ripkun,  you need to remove the uuid bit
[04:24] <heguru> JParishy: it should apply to the new version as well, it takes a LONG time to resize the partition some times
[04:24] <Pelo> PinkFloyd,  what do you need to know
[04:24] <PinkFloyd> When I use the Open dialog in programs to choose a file, all of my dot-files are listed, but I have "Show hidden" unchecked in Nautilus Preferences. How do I fix it?
[04:24] <Photocopy> seriously, what does ubuntu/xubuntu/kubuntu have that would make someone want to use it other than the large user base?
[04:24] <JParishy> Yeah, but I dont' see an option for it as the tutorial says
[04:24] <Pici> Photocopy: press ctrl-h
[04:24] <Pici> er, PinkFloyd ^

[04:24] <Pelo> PinkFloyd,   right click in the file windows of the open dialog
[04:24] <cdm10> Photocopy: If it doesn't work for you, that's because of the hardware, not the OS.
[04:24] <PinkFloyd> Pelo ok let me try
[04:25] <ripkun> just to be absolutely sure: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38192/ thing is that I just finished installing ubuntu, is it normal for the instalation to mess up things like that?

[04:25] <FFighter> hello
[04:25] <jrib> PinkFloyd: and by "save menu" I mean "open dialog"
[04:25] <Photocopy> no cdm10, it IS the os, my sound works on every one of the other five distros i used

[04:25] <Photocopy> yeah but windows never say much use for me
[04:25] <Elda> tarelrulz... how many problems with drivers have you had installing? -_-
[04:25] <PinkFloyd> Pelo heguru jrib, thanks
[04:26] <ripkun> cool, so that last link I sent you, is it fine for me to write that on my fstab?
[04:26] <Ashfire908> is it possible that if i load the kernel modules to control the fans on my computer that the motherboard increase the fan speed to cool down the cpu?
[04:26] <cdm10> Photocopy: ok, in that case, it has some issues with your soundcard. However, in my experience, it has some of the best hardware support up there. Until drivers are consistent and plentiful for Linux, there'll be problems like this, and you shouldn't just put down the whole OS because a soundcard doesn't work.
[04:26] <Ashfire908> *motherboard CANT
[04:26] <heguru> ripkun: it looks good
[04:26] <saritor> elda, still having soundcard issues? :(
[04:26] <Stettin> dfcarney does sound work and you can click menus?
[04:26] <dfcarney> Stettin: yes
[04:26] <tarelerulz> Elda , other then a bit of configing ubuntu has been great.
[04:26] <Stettin> i have the same issue haven't had any luck
[04:26] <ripkun> ok, many heguru, hope it works, if not I'll be back =)
[04:26] <Pelo> later folks
[04:26] <dfcarney> Stettin: Playback was working perfectly the other day.
[04:26] <ripkun> *many thanks
[04:26] <Stettin> i've reinstalled every package for DVD still no luck
[04:27] <Elda> saritor:  You guessed it :>
[04:27] <Stettin> mine was working until i accidentally hosed my install, then reinstalled and haven't been able to get it working using my same exact guides and steps I've used 5-6 times successfully
[04:27] <saritor> elda, what kind of hard ware do you have?
[04:27] <Elda> saritor: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
[04:28] <dfcarney> Stettin: yeah, this is driving me crazy
[04:28] <Elda> That I was able to devise by following the tree guide on the forums. BUT the link to the repository/manual download thing was broken
[04:28] <jcnorman> Elda - when ur donw w/ saritor i'd also like some sound help
[04:28] <dfcarney> Stettin: I've tried reinstalling various packages, with no luck
[04:28] <Excelsior> Filthy heretics
[04:28] <Photocopy> cdm10: okay, so a os that doesnt detect my hardware for what is clearly no real reason, a name that is near impossible and somewhat embarassing to try to pronounce, and loads of features" of which i could find (features)(in an amount specifiable as "loads") on any other distro? yeah right, good bye ubuntu, have fun.
[04:28] <Stettin> i wonder if there is a bug tracker yet.. i haven't seen anything on google about this problem for Feisty, but I've seen it reported on Edgy back in 2006
[04:28] <Elda> Sound is the last thing I need to be done, then Ill be done with setting up the basic part
[04:29] <Stettin> err. dapper
[04:29] <cdm10> Photocopy: To each his own... I'm not going to argue with you.
[04:29] <Elda> Then I can relax and be happy with my installation
[04:29] <Photocopy> cdm10:done and done. bye
[04:29] <dfcarney> Stettin: what kind of video card do you have?
[04:29] <Elda> Since I got steam games to work, except for HL2 but that is a known bug, and it still runs better than it did on XP or Vista
[04:29] <jcnorman> cdm10 - can u help w/ sound?
[04:29] <Elda> so yeah... all I need is my precious sound and Ill be good
[04:29] <DjViper> Elda: woho :P
[04:29] <heguru> jcnorman: sorry i had not followed your sound issue
[04:29] <cdm10> jcnorman: Probably not... I haven't had any experience with sound cards.
[04:29] <heguru> jcnorman: can you tell me the prob?
[04:30] <saritor> Elda, what problems are you having when you install the alsa driver?
[04:30] <jcnorman> ok hegeru - see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38184/
[04:30] <Elda> Problem is that I cant FIND the driver for my device.... following the guide which was posted just gave me a BUTTLOAD of errors when I tried to follow it command by command
[04:30] <cdm10> It's weird, since 7.04 came out, I've been able to help less and less people. In the 6.06 days, all the questions were the same: how do I get media to work, and how do I install my video drivers? I know how to solve both of those problems, so I could help out. But now, since Ubuntu does that automatically, there are fewer simple questions to solve...
[04:30] <pere_> hi, anybody knows how to make a certain length of a text file to be edited? i mean, i need to make a carriage return every X spaces...
[04:30] <heguru> jcnorman: this contains nothing

[04:31] <jcnorman> oops - I'll try paste again
[04:31] <saritor> elda, do you have alsa support compiled in the kernel?
[04:31] <darlok> How do I get a VCD disc to mount and play?  I put it in the drive, but it hasn't mounted...
[04:31] <Sonicadvance1> Okay, I need help configuring my firewall. I need to allow it to pretty much pass through any data that the computer attached requests. I haven't figured out how to do do this. Can anyone help?
[04:31] <Elda> Errr, I dont know o,o
[04:31] <Stettin> dfcarney: I have beryl installed but it video doesn't work with desktop effects off or on
[04:31] <Elda> I have no idea how to even compile
[04:31] <jrib> pere_: are you just asking for some editor with this option or you have some text and you want to wrap it?
[04:31] <dfcarney> Stettin: I've got an ATI too (Radeon 9000)
[04:32] <pere_> i have some text to wrap
[04:32] <Elda> All I know is sudo apt-get install, cd, rm, sudo, and rmdir, along with -rf now xD
[04:32] <Elda> and a some wine stuff
[04:32] <jcnorman> heguru - try http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38193/
[04:32] <Stettin> i'm tempted to try the other driver, but would have to sacrifice 3d accel
[04:32] <heguru> Sonicadvance: so you have any specific question?
[04:32] <pere_> jrib, I have some text to wrap
[04:32] <Elda> So how do I know if the Alsa driver have been "compiled into my kernel" which sounds slightly perverted but ookay
[04:32] <heguru> jcnorman: can you also pase the output of lspci
[04:33] <jcnorman> will do - back in a moment
[04:33] <saritor> elda, run "modprobe -l | grep alsa" in the command line
[04:33] <saritor> that should tell you if its in there as a module
[04:33] <heguru> jcnorman: sorry just saw that
[04:33] <FFighter> ok, maybe a stupid question but I've got a key on my keyboard which has 4 chars to choose... one of them is when I just press it, the other is with SHIFT pressed.. what about the others?
[04:33] <khermans_> i have an ipw2200 -- what are the docs for the firmware installation?
[04:33] <khermans_> i dont see them on the wiki
[04:33] <Zombine> Okay... new question.  What does Linux call FAT32 filesystems?
[04:33] <jrib> pere_: hmm, if you know python you can use the "textwrap" module, but let me see if there is a simpler command line way
[04:33] <khermans_> Zombine, fat32
[04:33] <InSaNiTyIG> heguru: whats next to finding out the problem?
[04:33] <khermans_> Zombine, vfat
[04:34] <Elda> Saritor should I pm you the results? It looks like to me there are no sound drivers!
[04:34] <pere_> jrib: i think "fold" command could be the answuer, im gonna check out
[04:34] <Zombine> khermans_ Erm.... which one?
[04:34] <Zombine> vfat?
[04:34] <khermans_> 2200bg
[04:34] <saritor> elda yeah go for it
[04:34] <khermans_> Zombine, yes vfat
[04:34] <Sonicadvance1> heguru, I have two network cards, I have one connecting to my second network card and I can't seem to allow myself to passthrough the internet connection completely
[04:34] <jcnorman> heguru - see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38194/
[04:34] <jrib> pere_: yep, that's what I got
[04:34] <FFighter> It used to work ok on Windows... actually the keyboard has pipe and backslash on this key, but ubuntu only has a layout that has < > on this key as well as pipe and backslash
[04:34] <pere_> jrib: ok thanks :)
[04:35] <JParishy> i dunno what to do. this doesn't make any sense to me
[04:35] <darlok> Could someone please tell me how to mount a VCD disc?
[04:35] <FFighter> I'm only getting < and > (with shift)
[04:35] <FFighter> but can't get pipe and backslash
[04:35] <FFighter> :(
[04:35] <Zombine> and a device that is my master HDD on partition 0 would be hda0,0 or is that specific to GRUB?
[04:36] <Malachi> Anyone here familiar with gnotime?
[04:36] <dfcarney> Stettin: well, i have no idea
[04:37] <heguru> Sonicadvance: you have to enable forwarding, do this: sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[04:37] <Galo> okay, I'm having serious trouble installing wine, java, flash and shockwave, because apparently, my ubuntu doesn't run *.rpm, *.yum, and nothing seems to be compatible to AM2-64... can anyone help me, please?
[04:38] <jrib> Galo: ubuntu does not use rpm or yum.  It uses debs and APT
[04:38] <KurtKraut> Galo: rpm and yum are not meant to be compatible with ubuntu out of the box.
[04:38] <jrib> !java > Galo (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:38] <ripkun> well i`m back, it didn`t work
[04:38] <Elda> Any ideas on what I would do next Saritor?
[04:38] <jrib> !flash > Galo (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:38] <jrib> !wine > Galo (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:38] <ripkun> During boot up I got a file system check failed error
[04:38] <Scunizi> !jave > Scunizi
[04:38] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: I am sorry, can't think of anything at the moment.
[04:38] <jcnorman> heguru - did u see my message about the paste?
[04:38] <Galo> okay, thanks
[04:38] <heguru> jcnorman: yes i read your message
[04:39] <jcnorman> ok - thx - i'll be patient
[04:39] <heguru> jcnorman: lets try to work on it
[04:39] <jrib> !shockwave > Galo (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:39] <Sonicadvance1> heguru, Permission denied. I do already have it so it forwards the connection though. It's just REALLY limited
[04:39] <zcat[1] > Galo: I'd suggest installing the 32-bit Ubuntu. There should be very little performance difference and it makes installing non-free software much less complicated
[04:39] <Scunizi> Zombine, I don't know if anyone answered you.. but the syntax you describe looks like grub only.
[04:39] <qazwsx> how do I find all files in ~ that was created/modified within the past 60 minutes?
[04:39] <Elda> saritor: Any idea on what to do next?
[04:39] <darlok> Could someone please tell me how to mount a VCD disc?
[04:40] <zcat[1] > darlok: insert disk. wait. It should appear pretty-much like any other data CD
[04:40] <Scunizi> Zombine, hd? is usually an ide disk, sd? is usually a SATA disk, sda1 is the first partition on the SATA disk etc.
[04:40] <heguru> darlok: you dont have to mount a vcd disk, just put it in drive and use mplayer vcd://1
[04:40] <squidneedshelp> is there anything besides beryl that gives the same effects possibly more?
[04:40] <jrib> qazwsx: you can't search for creation time because that isn't stored, but you can use the 'find' command to search for files modified in the last 60 minutes, take a look at 'man find', I do not recall how to do it from memory
[04:40] <Scunizi> Zombine, hda is the first ide disk, hdb is the second etc.
[04:40] <darlok> zcat[1] , heguru: I've tried both...
[04:40] <ripkun> heguru: I got a file system check failed error at boot up
[04:41] <darlok> heguru: mplayer exits with an error "CD-ROM device not found"
[04:41] <heguru> Sonicadvance1: ok what exactly do you need to configure? NAT? HTTP Proxy? simple Routing? Firewall?
[04:41] <jcnorman> heguru - is there something u want me to do?
[04:41] <Zombine> scunizi, Thanks.  *tries to mount something*
[04:41] <zcat[1] > darlok: do normal data CD's appear? it may be a faulty disk?
[04:41] <heguru> jcnorman: yes i want you to run aplay -L
[04:41] <Sonicadvance1> heguru, I'm guessing the routing portion :P
[04:41] <jcnorman> heguru - ok
[04:41] <mooper> is vmware-server borked in feisty?
[04:41] <Elda> Im hoping mounting is something you do within linux....
[04:41] <Scunizi> Zombine, mounting requires some steps.. let me see if ubotu knows..
[04:42] <Zombine> !mount
[04:42] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[04:42] <Scunizi> !mount | Zombine
[04:42] <ubotu> Zombine: please see above
[04:42] <darlok> zcat[1] : Yes, normal CDs appear fine.
[04:42] <Elda> ah hah
[04:42] <kevinO> why cant i open php files?
[04:42] <jrib> kevinO: how are you trying and what happens exactly?
[04:42] <jcnorman> heguru - see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38195/
[04:42] <zcat[1] > darlok: that seems odd. IIRC my vcd's just pop up on the desktop like any other disk.
[04:42] <heguru> Sonicadvance1: routing is installed by default in linux, all u have to do is enable it, by doing what i wrote above, next probably you want to do NAT
[04:42] <Elda> So apparantly I only have video drivers, but no sound drivers :>
[04:42] <Scunizi> Zombine, that's not a very good response.
[04:42] <darlok> zcat[1] : However, I've now tried two different VCDs with the same results.
[04:42] <Sonicadvance1> heguru, I see
[04:42] <Scunizi> !fstab | Zombine
[04:42] <ubotu> Zombine: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[04:42] <jrib> qazwsx: seems like the -mmin switch is what you want
[04:43] <Zombine> The device is already formatted and whatnot...
[04:43] <pere_> jrib, ok, so it works, but i try the -s option, but the result is the same , any suggestions
[04:43] <Zombine> its my win boot drive
[04:43] <Sonicadvance1> heguru, if it helps, I have Firestarter installed if that helps anyway
[04:43] <InSaNiTyIG> heguru: could there be a driver/utility i should have
[04:43] <kevinO> jrib, I try to open a php file that is part of a web hosting control panel "dtc" and it asks what program i want to use, i choose firefox, and it doesnt do anything
[04:43] <darlok> zcat[1] : What is IIRC?
[04:43] <zcat[1] > if i recall corectly..
[04:43] <Scunizi> Zombine, ok.. it's easier to see your posts in the noise if you use my nick.. it get's highlighted.. type the first few letters then hit TAB to complete
[04:43] <kevinO> jrib, i just got oho5 too
[04:43] <heguru> jcnorman: ok now lets try to play some audio using the difference devices
[04:43] <kevinO> lol php5
[04:44] <Scunizi> !ntfs
[04:44] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[04:44] <zcat[1] > !iirc
[04:44] <ubotu> IIRC means "if I remember correctly"
[04:44] <jcnorman> heguru: ok - specific command?
[04:44] <darlok> zcat[1] : Thanks... I figured it was an acronym, I've just never heard it. :)
[04:44] <KurtKraut> hahahaha
[04:44] <jrib> kevinO: it's a server-side issue
[04:44] <zcat[1] > hehe, didn't expect ubout to know it :)
[04:44] <zcat[1] > gah, ubotu I mean! damn fingers!
[04:44] <kevinO> jrib, do i need php5-cgi?
[04:45] <jrib> kevinO: are you the server?
[04:45] <Scunizi> Scunizi_, that's not what I ment.. when you talk back put my nick first in the response...
[04:45] <squidneedshelp> is there anything besides beryl that gives the same effects or possibly more?
[04:45] <darlok> lol the all-knowing ubotu.... unless you need USEFUL info ;)
[04:45] <kevinO> jrib, yes
[04:45] <jrib> !php > kevinO (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:45] <heguru> jcnorman: trying to remember wait
[04:45] <Scunizi> better
[04:45] <Zombine> Scunizi I see.
[04:45] <jrib> kevinO: follow the troubleshooting steps on that wiki page for php
[04:45] <jcnorman> heguru: ok
[04:45] <zcat[1] > !rofl
[04:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rofl - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:46] <jrib> pere_: I don't know anything about it.  Maybe pastebin your file or some example that does not do what you expect
[04:46] <saritor> Elda, are you getting my pms?
[04:46] <Zombine> Scunizi So anyway, its a FAT32 drive, its fornatted and partitoned, and all Im looking to do is view files on it
[04:46] <Scunizi> Zombine, that's it!... you can find what the system currently recoginzed by looking at fstab. type gksudo gedit /etc/fstab and you'll get the text control file for the system.. don't edit anything yet.
[04:46] <heguru> ok
[04:46] <pere_> ok
[04:46] <ripkun> heguru: the changes made in fstab didn't`t do it, I got a file system check failed during boot up
[04:46] <Elda> Saritor, it does not look like it
[04:46] <Elda> Last thing I see is the message I sent you.
[04:46] <andyrug> squidneedshelp, try compiz-fusion  for "more compositing than beryl" as it were
[04:46] <saritor> ugh i have to look into that
[04:46] <heguru> jcnorman: first goto /usr/share/sounds
[04:47] <FFighter> Could someone tell me how am I supposed to access chars from keyboard keys that have more than two chars
[04:47] <heguru> jcnorman: next try aplay startup.wav
[04:47] <saritor> pm me the output of /proc/asound/version
[04:47] <nomasteryoda> Scunizi, actually that would be /etc/mtab for "mounted" right?
[04:47] <zcat[1] > saritor: registered with nickserv?
[04:47] <Elda> I think you have to me registered to send pm on the server
[04:47] <Talcite> is anyone here familiar with bash configuration files?
[04:47] <jcnorman> heguru: I'm there
[04:47] <kevinO> jrib, do i need the complete lamp server to view one of these files in a browser, cause i dont have apache2 or mysql on this machine, this is just a workstation
[04:47] <saritor> zcat[1] , no =p
[04:47] <jrib> !anyone | Talcite
[04:47] <ubotu> Talcite: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:47] <Scunizi> nomasteryoda, not to see what the system will currently read.
[04:47] <zcat[1] > saritor: that explains it :)
[04:47] <nomasteryoda> k
[04:47] <heguru> jcnorman: aplay startup.wav
[04:47] <saritor> im just lazy
[04:47] <dfcarney> Stettin: I got it working.  I'm not sure what, exactly, fixed it, but I did the following: re-install libdvdcss2 and w32codecs, restart X, select my "default session" to be Gnome (i.e. NOT the safe mode)
[04:48] <zcat[1] > saritor: you can't pm until you've registered and logged in around here..
[04:48] <jrib> kevinO: afaik, you need something like apache.  Someone might prove me wrong though
[04:48] <Zombine> Scunizi It shows the linux root drive and another partition of that drive...
[04:48] <Talcite> alright then =P. Ok so I just made a new user account on ubuntu-server and for some reason, it has no color and header before the $ when I'm on that account in terminal
[04:48] <jcnorman> heguru: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38196/
[04:48] <Scunizi> Zombine, my vfat fstab line looks like this.. however my sys doesn't use uuid.. /dev/sdc1	/media/sdc1	vfat	user,noauto,umask=000	0	0
[04:48] <kevinO> thanks jrib ill go ahead and install it and see :)
[04:49] <saritor> elda, sorry should have been more specific, type "more /proc/asound/version"
[04:49] <Scunizi> Zombine, you won't use the /dev/sdc1.  It will have to be replaced with the uuid of the drive/partition.
[04:49] <jrib> Talcite: I'm guessing this is outside of X?  Does he have a .bashrc or .bash_profile in his ~?
[04:49] <heguru> jcnorman: now try: aplay -D hw0:1 startup.wav
[04:49] <Scunizi> !uuid > Scunizi
[04:49] <jrib> Scunizi: you can do:  /msg ubotu uuid
[04:50] <Talcite> jrib: yes, It's only console. it's actually over SSH as well. I just copied the .bashrc from the original account. Does that work?
[04:50] <zcat[1] > I hate the UUID thing.. cloned (cp -a and reinstall grub) my install to a bigger drive last week, had to fix the UUID's in fstab, menu.list, yada yada... annoying. What's wrong with /dev/sda1?!!
[04:50] <FFighter> there`s a key on my keyboard (well not only this key but) that has 4 chars to choose from < and > and pipe and backslash
[04:50] <Elda> Saritor: Pmed you the output
[04:50] <Scunizi> jrib, what does that do.?
[04:50] <Talcite> jrib: The original account that was installed on works fine, but the one I made myself doesn't
[04:50] <Zombine> Right... and it should be hda0 for me... its a master IDE drive with only one partition...
[04:50] <ripkun> heguru: the changes made in fstab didn't`t do it, I got a file system check failed during boot up
[04:50] <jcnorman> heguru: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38197/
[04:50] <FFighter> I cant type backslash or pipe, only < and (shift) >
[04:50] <jrib> Talcite: it probably does not get sourced.  Does ~/.bashrc define the PS1 variable?
[04:50] <Zombine> scuzini Right... and it should be hda0 for me... its a master IDE drive with only one partition...
[04:50] <FFighter> do I have to press anything in combo with SHIFT ?
[04:50] <Carl> HI.. I am new to Linux.. Installed Ubuntu on one of my pc's.  IS there a way to switch to KDE from what seems to be teh default Gnome?
[04:50] <heguru> ripkun: hmm, ok are you on live cd?
[04:50] <Scunizi> jrib, same as !uuid .. sorta
[04:51] <jrib> Scunizi: same thing !uuid > Scunizi  does but without spamming the channel :)
[04:51] <ripkun> heguru? yes
[04:51] <ripkun> heguru:
[04:51] <Talcite> jrib: sourced? well I just copied the .bashrc from the original installed account. That one has a header before $, so I'm guessing it has a PS1 variable in there
[04:51] <Scunizi> jrib, ah.. so sorry.. didn't know.
[04:51] <jrib> !kde > Carl (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:51] <jrib> Talcite: do 'source ~/.bashrc'
[04:51] <Carl> Thanks
[04:51] <saritor> elda, how about the output of "more /proc/asound/cards"
[04:51] <FFighter> please, advise !
[04:52] <FFighter> need a hand here
[04:52] <Zombine> Scunizi So.... I should add a line for my drive, hda0.... its the master IDE drive and it has only one partition
[04:52] <Talcite> jrib: that's the other thing... I have like 2 commands on that account. source doesn't work, and cd doesn't work very well. I can't even access my own home directory
[04:52] <Elda> Sent
[04:52] <Talcite> jrib: there's no problem with the other account whatsoever
[04:52] <heguru> jcnorman: ok lets try to debug the driver now
[04:52] <Scunizi> Zombine, after finding the uuid the remaining part of the line should work.  You'll have to create a directory in /media for it to mount to.  sudo mkdir /media/"name of drive" like sda1 or hda1 etc.  Not hda0
[04:52] <jrib> Talcite: umm, how did you create this accound?
[04:53] <jrib> account even
[04:53] <Talcite> jrib: useradd
[04:53] <FFighter> ok, seems I will have to find out myself
[04:53] <FFighter> thanks anyway
[04:53] <Talcite> jrib: should I have used something else?
[04:53] <ripkun> heguru: yes, im using the live cd again
[04:53] <heguru> jcnorman: do you mind joining any other channel its crowded here
[04:53] <jcnorman> heguru: ok
[04:53] <jrib> Talcite: make a new one with "adduser" and see if your problems go away
[04:53] <junkeR_> hello, I have some .avi video files where the audio plays but no video plays.  I have all the codecs and all videos run except these certain files.  They were created with a Logitech Webcam around 6 years ago.. they can play fine on a Windows OS though.
[04:53] <Talcite> jrib: sure
[04:53] <Geoff---> does ubuntu server have native support for promise TX2000? (ie install onto TX2000 set up in RAID 1)?
[04:53] <jcnorman> heguru: ok - your suggestion
[04:53] <heguru> jcnorman: #ubuntu-nvidia
[04:53] <Scunizi> Zombine, use the other drive uuid formats to formulate the correct beginning of the line.
[04:53] <saritor> zcat[1] , where do i register the name at? :)
[04:53] <jcnorman> heguru: cu there
[04:54] <heguru> jcnorman: i am there
[04:54] <jcnorman> exit
[04:54] <jcnorman> quit
[04:54] <heguru> jcnorman: type /joinv #ubuntu-nvidia
[04:54] <heguru> jcnorman: sorry /join #ubuntu-nvidia
[04:54] <jcnorman> /joinv #ubuntu-nvidia
[04:55] <ripkun> heguru: yes, im using the live cd again
[04:55] <saritor> elda, try running "sudo alsamixer", if you get a little program that pops up try just running "alsamixer"
[04:55] <heguru> ripkun: yes ripkun
[04:55] <Zombine> Scunizi Okay.... Here goes...
[04:55] <ripkun> sry, I`m nver sure if u got my messegae or not
[04:55] <zcat[1] > !nickserv
[04:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nickserv - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:55] <heguru> ripkun: just give me a min please
[04:55] <ripkun> sure sure
[04:56] <Scunizi> Zombine when your done copy and paste your fstab to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org then post the new address to it.
[04:56] <jonsimons_> Is there a wireless adapter with draft-n that works out of the box for ubuntu?
[04:56] <Zombine> Scunizi does whitspace matter?
[04:56] <ubuntu> hi i having some problems in installing Ubuntu in my laptop, (HP dv6000), i have installed it and i have the files copied in the filesystem but when trying to boot Ubuntu the screen gets in black, just appears nothing. Some had had a similar problem?, i have an Nvidia video card. Thanks
[04:56] <saritor> !nickserv
[04:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nickserv - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:56] <FFighter> !keyboard
[04:56] <ubotu> To find out how to switch your keyboard layout, See https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/xubuntu/desktopguide/C/switch-keyboard-layout.html - See also !Shortcuts
[04:56] <Scunizi> Zombine, some  you should have at least a space between the sections..
[04:56] <FFighter> !Shortcuts
[04:56] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net (GNOME) or https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KDEMultimediaKeys (KDE) - See !Keyboard for changing layouts
[04:56] <zcat[1] > saritor: probably /m nickserv help   or something. Been a while since I did it
[04:56] <saritor> ah
[04:56] <Scunizi> Zombine, you don't want to run it all together.
[04:57] <InSaNiTyIG> heguru: im looking online and im seeing alot of reference to "acpi". could there be something related to that i should look in to?
[04:57] <khermans_> can someone help me get my ipw2200 working?
[04:57] <Zombine> Scunizi As long as there is at least one space so it can do its tokenizer thing?
[04:57] <Elda> Saritor: I got something to come up
[04:57] <khermans_> it is claiming radio is off
[04:57] <Scunizi> Zombine, yep
[04:57] <khermans_> in iwconfig
[04:57] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: acpi is what i suspected first
[04:58] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: but if its not suspending then its most likely not acpi
[04:58] <saritor> elda, using both commands?
[04:58] <Elda> yes
[04:58] <Elda> it was the same thing each time
[04:58] <saritor> ok good
[04:58] <wastrel> khermans_: ipw2200 should Just Work.
[04:58] <Carl> so far so good. one last question.. I hope.  The computer has a wireless belkin card.  I have not been able to get itto even   register teh belkin card, so I have been using   twired connection.  Any help in  getting itto do wireless?
[04:58] <Elda> All the bars are all the way up though
[04:58] <Elda> except for one
[04:58] <Elda> It doesnt have the option to raise or lower it
[04:59] <khermans_> wastrel, it does not

[05:00] <swiftnomad> Hello.
[05:01] <wastrel> khermans_: you have a hardware button that toggles the card active/inactive?
[05:01] <saritor> elda, make sure that the at least the Master and PCM (and Wave or Headphone if present) channels are unmuted and have non zero volume. For laptop users, try toggling the External Amplifier switch.

[05:03] <khermans_> wastrel, where ae the ocs on this?
[05:03] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: suspend is not running, so its not a suspend issue, most likely its some incompatibility between screen blanking routin
[05:03] <wastrel> if you boot from livecd does it work?
[05:03] <randy> could someone help me
[05:03] <Scunizi> Zombine, after you hit paste the address line changed. can you paste that here.

[05:07] <ubotu> Carl: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:08] <scguy318> Carl: open Terminal, and type in lspci, then copy the output to pastebin
[05:08] <Scunizi> Zombine, good.. now you might be able to get away with sudo mount -a
[05:08] <taurusivy> where is my eth0 device in /dev?
[05:08] <saritor> elda, it may be that a setting in your mixer may be muted and you need to unmute it. I suggest going into alsamixer again and playing with the settings of those, specifically the mute ones, there is more than one page of selectable volume controls in the program if you keep scrolling right
[05:08] <taurusivy> i wana check it with udevinfo
[05:08] <Zombine> Scunizi Alright.... Do I want to use the -t that the man page has as tyical?
[05:08] <Carl> Ah,  you know what, I amnot using that pc.  I am on another os type of pc  here.  :(
[05:08] <Zombine> Scunizi Or any other arguments for hat matter?
[05:09] <Scunizi> Zombine, not sure .. let me look at the man page..  typically just -a
[05:09] <scguy318> Carl: oh, well, what Belkin card then?
[05:09] <Carl> I Will log in with teh oteh rpc as soon as kububtu is loaded.
[05:09] <heguru> taurusivy: eth0 device does not appear in /dev
[05:10] <cellofellow> the eth devices aren't in /dev anymore. Not sure where they are nowdays.
[05:10] <Scunizi> Zombine, naw.. just -a should work
[05:10] <Zombine> Scunizi Saved mt fstab... trying to mount...
[05:10] <Carl> F5D7000
[05:10] <ripkun> heguru: please let me know when I can have your attention ^^
[05:10] <Talcite> jrib: wait... if I set world deny all to my home folder... would that prevent the system from accessing .bashrc?
[05:11] <Zombine> Scunizi No output... dunno if that is encouraging or not xD.  Lets see if it showed up...
[05:11] <jrib> Talcite: no, as long as your user can access it
[05:11] <Carl> Tell u what, you guys are very helpful.
[05:11] <Talcite> jrib: hmm... alright then I guess it was a problem with useradd
[05:11] <scguy318> Carl: that model number sounds...like mine :D
[05:11] <scguy318> Carl: I think
[05:12] <scguy318> Carl: do you have your Windows driver CD? or can you tell me what firmware revision?
[05:12] <Carl> LOL, oh, that is great then.  lol.
[05:12] <heguru> ripkun: :$ sorry just tryin to solve some sound issue
[05:12] <Scunizi> Zombine, type gksudo gedit /etc/mtab and in there add /dev/hda0	/media/CDrive	vfat	user,noauto,umask=000		0	0
[05:12] <Scunizi> Zombine, then try again to mount.
[05:13] <ripkun> heguru: no problem!, just let me know when u can help me
[05:13] <kr00l> hello, anyone know how I disable ubuntu firewall? I want to torrent.
[05:13] <scguy318> kr00l: the firewall by default is set to allow all incoming/outgoing
[05:13] <scguy318> kr00l: you wish to port forward?
[05:14] <scguy318> Carl: do you have your Windows driver CD? or can you tell me what firmware revision?
[05:14] <Carl> scguy.. I do not have teh CD anymore...I never used them in teh past. but this is  it
[05:14] <Carl> http://www.belkin.com/support/product/?lid=en&pid=F5D7000&scid=221
[05:14] <kr00l> scguy318, that can be done in the router correct. I then need my pc ipaddress
[05:14] <Zombine> Scunizi no luck...
[05:14] <scguy318> kr00l: ifconfig
[05:14] <nonewmsgs> i think ubuntu shifts which sound card it wants to use.  so it sometimes picks thebuilt in one i disalbed in BIOS.  how can i make it ignore that
[05:14] <scguy318> kr00l: the router IP is usually something like 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1
[05:14] <pau1> Hey, I just tryed the gnome sessions thing
[05:14] <kr00l> scguy318, ifconfig?
[05:14] <pau1> but it still went to the white screen
[05:15] <pau1> I set it to launch beryl-manager at startup
[05:15] <scguy318> kr00l: in Terminal, it will show your PC's private IP address
[05:15] <Talcite> jrib: hmm it says that my .bashrc = access denied...
[05:15] <kr00l> scguy318, sweet
[05:15] <Llivavin> can someone help me with aoss?
[05:15] <Llivavin> I get ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
[05:15] <Talcite> jrib: I'm using 644 on the home directory
[05:15] <foug> there is a volume changing button on my mouse. I don't know what causes the icon when i change volume to change, but I've seen it large and small. Does anyone know where I can change the icon? I have compiz-fusion installed
[05:15] <pau1> Is there any other way I can stop beryl from starting automatically?
[05:15] <Scunizi> Zombine, hummm... in looking at your fstab it shows hda0,,, it should be hda1.. I'm assuming you installed windows first then ubuntu right?
[05:15] <Llivavin> as an error when trying to use it with skype.
[05:15] <jrib> Talcite: what does?
[05:15] <xorg> hi all
[05:15] <Zombine> Scunizi This is correct...
[05:15] <sts3c> Tyan GS10 doesn't seem to like USB keyboards in Ubuntu . . . anybody ever had any experience with it
[05:15] <Scunizi> Zombine, and you only have one drive?
[05:15] <Talcite> jrib: when I try to su into the account
[05:15] <scguy318> Carl: do you know what revision your card is?
[05:16] <sts3c> double keys every keystroke
[05:16] <galpa> #ubuntu-es
[05:16] <scguy318> Carl: i believe mine was v1, but yours could have been very different
[05:16] <jrib> Talcite: the one you created with adduser, or the original broken one?
[05:16] <taurusivy> heguru: and where are the ethX devices?
[05:16] <Zombine> Scunizi Nope.  Two.  One is all one partition and one is my ubuntu/swap/extra storage drive
[05:16] <Talcite> jrib: adduser
[05:16] <Scunizi> Zombine, change referances of hda0 to hda1 in both fstab and mtab
[05:16] <Talcite> jrib: it won't let me access my own home folder either... 0.o
[05:16] <cellofellow> I've got a new computer with a nVidia GeForce Go 6100. I have used Ubuntu on other computers. I just want to know if power management works with this card and the binary drivers.
[05:16] <taurusivy> heguru: I wanna change their assignment order
[05:16] <Talcite> jrib: what's wrong with chmod 644 matthew-ra?
[05:16] <pau1> Can someone help me
[05:17] <Llivavin> When i try to use aoss with skupe I get ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave as an error. help?
[05:17] <pau1> It seems like a pretty basic question
[05:17] <jrib> Talcite: directories should be executable so you can 'cd' into them
[05:17] <Carl> I  woudl have to assume mine is 1, as i see no rev info
[05:17] <Llivavin> cellofellow they do
[05:17] <Carl> I am sorry for thee run around
[05:17] <scguy318> Carl: np
[05:17] <pau1> I installed beryl, and I set it to automatically load beryl-manager at startup
[05:17] <Zombine> Scunizi And retry the mount?
[05:17] <Talcite> jrib: it says access denied =S
[05:17] <Scunizi> cellofellow, I don't know about power mgmt, but the nvidia drivers in synaptic work fine.
[05:17] <pau1> now I get a white screen when I log on
[05:17] <Scunizi> Zombine, yes
[05:17] <jrib> Talcite: sudo chmod 755 mathew-ra
[05:17] <Talcite> jrib: I set the chmod permission on the actually directory
[05:17] <Scunizi> Zombine, don't forget to save.
[05:17] <mOrO^> pau1: Beryl is touchy.
[05:17] <pau1> Well
[05:17] <pau1> How can I stop it from auto loading at log on?
[05:18] <cellofellow> Scunizi: I know as much as that, but I've not been able to get Suspend and Hibernate and particularly Resume from either to work on an older computer with the Nvidia-legacy driver.
[05:18] <mOrO^> pauldy: you can uninstall
[05:18] <Talcite> jrib: hmm it works now... oh you mean I should set 7 for user?
[05:18] <pau1> well
[05:18] <pau1> when I log on
[05:18] <scguy318> Carl: I tried to send you a PM, did you receive?
[05:18] <Llivavin> When i try to use aoss with skupe I get ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave as an error. help?
[05:18] <qazwsx> why can't I do "apt-get install pine" on ubuntu? why is pine not supported?
[05:18] <pau1> my screen goes completely white
[05:18] <Scunizi> cellofellow, ah.. a lappy.. sorry no experience there..
[05:18] <jrib> Talcite: yes, in general you will want directories to have the executable permission
[05:18] <Talcite> jrib: ahh... I see...
[05:18] <culpr|t> exit
[05:18] <Talcite> jrib: thanks =D
[05:19] <Veinor> qazwx
[05:19] <mOrO^> pau1: I cant help ya there, I had problems with Beryl and gave up on it.
[05:19] <pau1> gah
[05:19] <pau1> anyone else?
[05:19] <xorg> beryl is too much of a hassle
[05:19] <pau1> I dont want help setting it up
[05:19] <Carl> yes, i received it
[05:19] <Carl> i responded too
[05:19] <xorg> will ubuntu support opengl 3.0 ?
[05:19] <pau1> I just want to know how I can stop it from starting at log on
[05:19] <Scunizi> qazwsx, pine looks a little like irssi
[05:19] <scguy318> Carl: strange, I didn't receive a reply
[05:19] <Talcite> xorg: that's a driver thing I believe
[05:20] <Zombine> Scunizi No luck... 38204 is my new pastedump....
[05:20] <Scunizi> k
[05:20] <scguy318> Carl: well, okay, since the driver file is a nice EXE, I will do what I did last time
[05:20] <Talcite> xorg: and beryl isn't that much of a hassle... it really depends how much you like fiddling with the system =D
[05:20] <xorg> ah
[05:20] <cellofellow> xorg: it should, at least by Hardy. I think it's gonna be in Xorg 7.3 or maybe 7.4
[05:20] <scguy318> Carl: DCC work for you?
[05:20] <Carl> interesting lol..  Kbuntu has successfully  installed.  Thak u for that
[05:20] <Talcite> xorg: and don't forget you can just script workarounds for beryl
[05:20] <Carl> Well,  one  let me see if i can come in  on teh othe pc
[05:20] <Carl> so i coud  do it one time.. if you ar enot leaving now
[05:21] <xorg> i messed up my x conf and my drivers setup trying to configure beryl
[05:21] <Scunizi> Zombine, you might need to use the uuid of the drive instead of the /dev reference.. you can find out what that is by typing sudo blkid
[05:21] <Llivavin> I love beryl
[05:21] <JParishy> heguru: I just realized that GParted was on the livecd and i just started resizing the partition via that. you think that will work okay?
[05:21] <Llivavin> but
[05:21] <Llivavin> its a bitch to set up
[05:21] <pau1> gahhh
[05:21] <scguy318> Carl: I'm not going anywhere :)
[05:21] <pau1> help me
[05:21] <pau1> I gotta stop it from starting at log on
[05:22] <Zombine> and there it is!
[05:22] <xorg> for easy beryl try pcbsd
[05:22] <pau1> I set it to load beryl-manager at log on
[05:22] <xorg> it has beryl preinstalled
[05:22] <pau1> or session startup
[05:22] <Scunizi> Zombine, cool
[05:22] <Zombine> Scunizi Will I change that in mtab as well as fstab?
[05:22] <scguy318> Carl: to get this done with, do sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
[05:22] <Scunizi> Zombine, yes
[05:22] <pau1> now when I log on I just get a white screen
[05:22] <scguy318> Carl: while I get the driver INF files & co
[05:22] <pau1> I gotta stop it from starting
[05:22] <Talcite> Carl: what are you trying to do again?
[05:22] <Llivavin> When i try to use aoss with skupe I get ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave as an error. help?
[05:22] <Talcite> Carl: specifically, what's the pci id of your wireless card?
[05:23] <xorg> i wonder if my video card will support opengl 3.0 under ubuntu
[05:23] <saritor> elda, time to do a little more reading on my end =p
[05:23] <Scunizi> xorg, maybe
[05:23] <xorg> ah
[05:23] <Talcite> xorg: big maybe. I don't know if xorg is hardware dependent
[05:23] <xorg> it's a radeon x1950pro
[05:23] <Talcite> xorg: argh, I meant openGL
[05:23] <Elda> Saritor: Im trying the guide I found here, as this is getting frustrating -_- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[05:23] <dimas_> what i do to fix this?? Conector '/usr/local/share/gyachi/plugins/gyachigpgme.so cant be load, there is an error with gpg...i guest i have to send my public key...who can help me fix this?
[05:23] <xorg> i think it is
[05:23] <Teixeira> Good evening everybody... is there anyone who could help me setup wifi on a hp pavilion?
[05:24] <pau1> gah
[05:24] <pau1> I guess ill just reinstall ubuntu
[05:24] <xorg> i read on the opengl site that opengl 3.0 will need hardware that was made after nov. 8 2006
[05:24] <Zombine> Scunizi And the line will look the same except for the UUID replaces the /dev reference?
[05:24] <Talcite> xorg: well then if openGL is hardware dependent, your card won't support it unless they specifically add backwards compatibity
[05:24] <Llivavin> Teixeira i could
[05:24] <Llivavin> PM me.
[05:24] <Scunizi> Zombine, yes.. I'll be right back. 90 seconds..
[05:24] <Teixeira> ok
[05:24] <heguru> pau1: what is your prob again?
[05:24] <xorg> ah
[05:24] <xorg> talcite: damn
[05:24] <xorg> :(
[05:24] <pau1> I set beryl-manager to auto start on log on
[05:24] <Talcite> xorg: well vid cards aren't very expensive these days. You could probably grab a new one when it comes out
[05:24] <InSaNiTyIG> anyone who can help. my display is black when i open the laptop lid. (power settings is set to "do nothing") whats wrong or what can i do?
[05:24] <pau1> its obviously not compatible with my system
[05:24] <tsukasa_> anyone know the best program to burn game isos to a cd?
[05:25] <pau1> and now I just get a white screen when I log on
[05:25] <Talcite> xorg: plus... what do you use openGL for other than beryl? you certainly don't need a x1950 for that
[05:25] <Llivavin> tsukasa_ you could use any and just use the lowest speed..
[05:25] <xorg> that x1950pro cost me 300$
[05:25] <doggie> Have a router ubuntu issue if any one has a free minute
[05:25] <Talcite> xorg: yeah, lets see how much it costs these days =P
[05:25] <andyrug> paul: there is a way, at login, to start a clean session - to not restore the last session
[05:25] <xorg> well, i want to be able to play next gen games
[05:25] <pau1> It doesnt matter
[05:25] <pau1> its not the session
[05:25] <Talcite> xorg: on ubuntu? 0.o
[05:25] <xorg> yea
[05:25] <InSaNiTyIG> 300 dollars?
[05:25] <xorg> and on windows
[05:25] <Talcite> xorg: linux isn't exactly a gaming OS
[05:25] <pau1> its in the actual start up programs
[05:25] <InSaNiTyIG> i got it for 120
[05:25] <saritor> elda, i was just going to suggest trying that actually
[05:25] <xorg> yea
[05:25] <xorg> well, im in peru
[05:25] <InSaNiTyIG> oh
[05:25] <saritor> elda, let me know how it works out
[05:25] <xorg> so it costs 300$ here
[05:25] <InSaNiTyIG> well that explains it :)
[05:25] <Elda> okey
[05:26] <xorg> i think it costs 200$ now here
[05:26] <xorg> damn
[05:26] <Talcite> xorg: I see... well linux will probably support your vid card no matter what it is... but you just have to settle for less than ideal performance
[05:26] <Llivavin> Can anyone help me with my problem with aoss
[05:26] <xorg> why is that?
[05:26] <wastrel> pau1: ~/.config/autostart ?
[05:26] <Talcite> xorg: and yeah, don't buy hardware for future compatibility unless the manufacturer has a very good outline
[05:26] <pau1> Naw
[05:26] <pau1> wastrel
[05:26] <xorg> i didnt want to buy a 8800 or a 2900xt because i dont want to use vista
[05:27] <Talcite> xorg: well for starters, all those vid card manufacturers keep giving us closed source drivers
[05:27] <pau1> I went into system-preferences-sessions-startup programs-new- then I put in beryl-manager
[05:27] <Talcite> xorg: you can very well use a 2900xt with XP...
[05:27] <Talcite> xorg: they just support vista as well
[05:27] <Carl> ok, let me catch up.  I already have ndis wrapper installed.
[05:27] <xorg> ah
[05:27] <scguy318> Carl: ok, awesome
[05:27] <xorg> and, well, you know what?  I'm an aspiring game developer :P
[05:27] <Talcite> xorg: anyways, I'm not sure it's worth it to buy the newest vid card
[05:27] <Carl> TAlcite.. I am trying to install have teh  pc recognioize my wireless card
[05:27] <xorg> i want to develop games for windows, and for linux too
[05:28] <joeamined> hi
[05:28] <Llivavin>  When i try to use aoss with skupe I get ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave as an error. can anyone help?
[05:28] <xorg> Talcite: yea i know, thats why i didnt want to buy the current gen of cards
[05:28] <Carl> OK, thanks
[05:28] <joeamined> i have a nvidia geforce go 7400, should i use ndivia-glx or nvidia-glx-new ?
[05:28] <Sonicadvance1> I'm having problems with something. I have two network cards, one going to my computer from internet, and the other going to my other computer. I have firestarter, I have it all set up. it should work. My other computer can connect. but I think the firewall is blocking everything. Anyway to fix it?
[05:28] <Talcite> xorg: you can be sure that a game developer doesn't need the fanciest vid card. I would know, I'm in computer science at university. All my classmates are in the game design stream =P
[05:28] <Teixeira> Llivavin... i have an image on a cd... the system recognizes it but the browser says i have no connection
[05:28] <xorg> Talcite: really?
[05:29] <Talcite> xorg: yeah, just grab whatever gives you a good deal. And perhaps if AMD ever pulls through with open source drivers... grab ATI cards =P
[05:29] <Talcite> xorg: yes
[05:29] <xorg> but if you are going to make a game like World in Conflict, you need good gear
[05:29] <doggie> When i use arouter all my ports stop working in ubuntu but if i use dmz they work any suiggestions and no firrewalls running I can see
[05:29] <Llivavin> Teixeira Check your Private messages.
[05:29] <heguru> Sonicadvance1: well firestarter will block everything, uninstall it if you want to configure routing
[05:29] <scguy318> doggie: port forward
[05:29] <Scunizi> Zombine, back.. I'm trying to get my son's windows machine to recoginze the wireless connection.. for some reason it just went out.
[05:29] <xorg> i want to make games that run natively on linux
[05:29] <Talcite> xorg: you certainly do not. You program the engine first, and that needs nothing like a good machine
[05:29] <xorg> ubuntu specially
[05:29] <doggie> we did port forward but none will work
[05:29] <Sonicadvance1> heguru, then what?
[05:29] <xorg> ah
[05:29] <Llivavin>  When i try to use aoss with skupe I get ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave as an error. can anyone help?
[05:30] <joeamined> i have a nvidia geforce go 7400, should i use ndivia-glx or nvidia-glx-new ?
[05:30] <xorg> Im studying CS too
[05:30] <Talcite> xorg: if it runs on ubuntu, chances are it'll run on any other linux. We all use the same kernel
[05:30] <Llivavin> joeamined Try the ndivia-GLX
[05:30] <Talcite> xorg: where at?
[05:30] <heguru> Sonicadvance1: can you join me on #ubuntu-firewall.. its crowded here
[05:30] <doggie> like a like the router and ubuntu are fighting when we use the router
[05:30] <xorg> Talcite:  Here in Peru
[05:30] <ripkun> heguru: sorry... is that I`ve been waiting for some time...
[05:30] <Llivavin> the GLX-new i think is for 7900+
[05:30] <xorg> It's called soft. eng. here
[05:30] <heguru> ripkun: oh sorry
[05:30] <xorg> where you studying at?
[05:30] <Talcite> xorg: hmm I don't know too many universities in peru. I'm studying up in ottawa at Carleton university
[05:30] <heguru> ripkun: can you also join #ubuntu-firewall
[05:31] <ripkun> k sure
[05:31] <Talcite> CS and chem
[05:31] <xorg> ah
[05:31] <xorg> wow
[05:31] <cellofellow> ,exit
[05:31] <Zombine> Scunizi Love when that happens... All the time with my schools wireless
[05:31] <xorg> I wanted to go to Digipen
[05:31] <wastrel> xorg, Talcite  probably better to have this convo in #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:31] <xorg> you know digipen?
[05:31] <xorg> ok
[05:31] <andyrug> Why did i know that Paul would leave whilst I went to google for him ?!
[05:31] <Talcite> wastrel: thanks =D
[05:32] <Scunizi> Zombine, it's a pain.. I have it shut down at a specific time every night to limit thing.. then it doesn't come back up.. Anyway.. did you get the changes made?
[05:32] <heguru> ripkun: u're not there yet?
[05:32] <Carl> OK,  now i need an IRC client over on that pc
[05:32] <Carl> What are folks using here?  I am using MIRC
[05:32] <Dante123> Hi all....I try to print from Evince 0.8.1 and it simply won't.  Any ideas?
[05:32] <scguy318> Carl: mIRC on Wine :D
[05:32] <Talcite> Carl, sudo apt-get install xchat
[05:32] <Zombine> Scunizi Would I need to change the options to match the ones of hdb1?
[05:32] <xorg> im in offtopic
[05:32] <Talcite> Dantel123: do you have a PDF creator?
[05:32] <Zombine> Scunizi Didnt mount...
[05:32] <Carl> OK,  familiar with x-chat, thanks    hehe
[05:33] <Talcite> Carl, np
[05:33] <Dante123> Nope...just evince and Adobe reader
[05:33] <Scunizi> Zombine, no.. vfat is written differently.. You wanna try rebooting?  I"ll be here.
[05:33] <Talcite> Dante123: no I mean when you print, can you print to a pdf?
[05:33] <Talcite> Dante123: I'm trying to figure out if it's a printer problem or a evince problem
[05:33] <xorg> im in ubuntu's peru LoCo team
[05:34] <Dante123> I can export to pdf using openoffice.....and I can print if I open the same document with Adobe reader..Talcite
[05:34] <Zombine> Scunizi Its on a different comp anyway
[05:34] <Scunizi> Zombine, ah cool
[05:34] <Zombine> Scunizi But yeah its rebooting
[05:34] <Scunizi> Zombine, is this your first shot with linux or ubuntu?
[05:34] <Talcite> Dante123: hmm then you have a problem with evince indeed... what's your printer driver? and model?
[05:35] <Dante123> brother HL 1435....prints fine with all other apps
[05:35] <xorg> Talcite: are you in ubuntu's dev team?
[05:35] <Talcite> xorg: nah, no time. I barely have enough time to come on and help people out occasionally. Plus my C's only so-so
[05:35] <wastrel> Dante123: just that pdf or any pdf's in evince
[05:35] <xorg> ah
[05:35] <Zombine> Scunizi In years.... And before I got just about far enough to give up on u64 because my BIOS needed updated and wouldn boot XP.  Its why I switched over.  Then I flashed my BIOS and lost all my Ubuntu CDs xD
[05:35] <Dante123> no pdfs in evince will print
[05:36] <xorg> well, i think ubuntu is great
[05:36] <Talcite> Dante123: have you checked your system logs when you print?
[05:36] <Dante123> at least of the 5 or six I have tried to print at different times....
[05:36] <Scunizi> Zombine, sounds like you've been around compts abt as long as me.
[05:36] <Dante123> no, not sure where to check?
[05:36] <Talcite> xorg: it's nice, but I think there's a bit too many programs for a slower system
[05:36] <Talcite> xorg: try gentoo. It's a bit harder, but it runs quite fast
[05:36] <Talcite> Dante123: /var/log
[05:37] <xorg> Talcite: ok
[05:37] <Dante123> okay..Talcite...hang on
[05:37] <scguy318> Carl: sorry for the holdup, InstallShield isn't cooperating :P
[05:37] <Talcite> Dante123: you'll probably need to be sudo or root. I can't remember
[05:37] <xorg> but i've heard gentoo is only for experts
[05:37] <Talcite> xorg: I dunno, I don't consider myself an expert
[05:37] <Zombine> Scunizi I make no claim to great knowledge or talent, but I have spent about 12 of my 19 years around them :D
[05:37] <Talcite> xorg: just be prepared to do some reading, that's all
[05:37] <xorg> ok
[05:37] <wastrel> Dante123:  /var/log/cups/error_log  might be useful
[05:37] <jcnorman> heguru: That worked - You're a master!!
[05:37] <b14ck> Does anyone have a hp laserjet 1020 working with ubuntu? Mine doesn't print... It detects it, but it will never print. I have no idea why.
[05:38] <Talcite> jcnorman: that's why they call him heguru =P
[05:38] <jcnorman> heguru: Now if I could only get Adobe to do 64 bit flash plugin for firefox!!
[05:38] <Talcite> bl4ck: which driver are you using?
[05:38] <ectospasm> any of y'all have experience with a PalmOS-based phone and Linux?  I've gotten it to sync, but I can't seem to figure out how to get files onto it yet
[05:38] <Dante123> It says....E [21/Sep/2007:17:38:09 -0400]  Creating missing directory "/var/run/cups/certs"
[05:39] <b14ck> Talcite: the default one: foo2zjs
[05:39] <Scunizi> Zombine, ah.. got you beat.. 27 years around them.. doesn't mean much though.. I'm considered a guru to friends, associates some businesses (on windows) but I know less than what I don't know.. not a guru to a guru.. if you know what i mean.
[05:39] <wastrel> ectospasm: pilot-xfer -p <port> -i file
[05:39] <Talcite> Dante123: any other interesting entries?
[05:39] <wastrel> but that's not going to work with the GUI method
[05:39] <Carl2> scguy318:  ok, i am on  the Linux pc now
[05:39] <Talcite> bl4ck: give me a second
[05:39] <Scunizi> Zombine, ok.. did it reboot?
[05:39] <b14ck> Talcite: ok ty
[05:40] <xorg> not to begin a flame war, but whats your fav. desktop manager?
[05:40] <Zombine> Scunizi lol there always someone smarter, eh?
[05:40] <xorg> gnome? kde? xfce?
[05:40] <Scunizi> Zombine, you betcha.. it can be humbling.
[05:40] <ectospasm> wastrel:  I figured out that much (actually I used gpilot-install-file)... but I don't know where to look for the file
[05:40] <randy> someone help meee
[05:40] <Zombine> Scunizi  also, yeah it rebooted and now no C Drive still...
[05:40] <scguy318> Carl2: hold a bit, InstallShield is giving me trouble :P
[05:40] <Scunizi> Zombine, where are you looking
[05:40] <Talcite> bl4ck: does it print a test page?
[05:40] <ectospasm> wastrel:  on the phone
[05:40] <b14ck> Talcite: nope...
[05:40] <wastrel> ectospasm: you'll need a file manager if it's not an application
[05:41] <Zombine> Scunizi /media
[05:41] <wastrel> if it's an application it should show up in the app launcher
[05:41] <b14ck> Talcite: when i tell it to print a test page. it says printing... for a few mins. then it just goes back to "ready" status. but nothing is ever printed
[05:41] <wastrel> ectospasm: what type of file was it?
[05:41] <Talcite> bl4ck: ok. I don't know if we need to do this in feisty, but you're supposed to load the firmware for the printer after you turn it on
[05:41] <Carl2> ok, no problem.
[05:41] <Zombine> Scunizi Well /media/CDrive
[05:41] <b14ck> Talcite: how do i do that
[05:41] <Scunizi> Zombine, try ls /media/CDrive  .. remember caps make a difference.
[05:41] <Talcite> bl4ck: let me see
[05:41] <ectospasm> wastrel:  mp3... I was seeing if I could see it in the media player on the phone
[05:41] <Dante123> Talcite...none that I see....hang on....I just tried another print job....I think I heard it printing in the other room
[05:42] <Zombine> Scunizi shows nothing.... ls=dir?
[05:42] <Talcite> bl4ck: The firmware of the printer must be uploaded after turning it on. You can use a hotplug/udev script which comes with foo2zjs, or do it manually: "cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1020.dl >  /dev/usb/lp0".
[05:42] <randy> could someone please help me install an iso using cedega
[05:42] <Scunizi> Zombine, yes
[05:42] <wastrel> ectospasm: ah.  you may need to install a mp3 player app if the default one doesn't see it
[05:42] <Talcite> Dante123: 0.o lollerblades
[05:42] <b14ck> Talcite: bash: /dev/usb/lp0: No such file or directory
[05:43] <ectospasm> wastrel:  well, the transfer seemed rather quick, so I don't know if it actually transferred
[05:43] <Talcite> bl4ck: I didn't think it would be there.
[05:43] <ectospasm> wastrel:  is there a way for me to mount the thing so I can inspect the filesystem?
[05:43] <wastrel> ectospasm: it may not have, palm os only understands .pdb and .prc files.
[05:43] <Talcite> bl4ck:sudo make install install-hotplug cups
[05:43] <koronotomo11> .
[05:43] <scguy318> Carl2: ok, I'm ready, lemme tar the files
[05:44] <koronotomo11> ....
[05:44] <Talcite> bl4ck: then you'll have to reinstall the printer
[05:44] <wastrel> ectospasm: i don't know how smart gpilot-install is, so it may have landed on a storage card
[05:44] <ectospasm> wastrel:  yeah, and AT&T wants to charge me $30/month for internet access.  Fuck you very much
[05:44] <scguy318> Carl2: DCC working for you?
[05:44] <Dante123> Talcite...now it worked
[05:44] <koronotomo11> naonsih
[05:44] <Dante123> ;-)
[05:44] <b14ck> Talcite: where am i doing the make install?
[05:44] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | ectospasm
[05:44] <wastrel> ectospasm: any removable storage?
[05:44] <ubotu> ectospasm: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:44] <b14ck> Talcite: you mean apt-get?
[05:44] <koronotomo11> si saha?
[05:44] <ectospasm> wastrel:  not yet
[05:44] <Dante123> Other times it hasn't!  Frustrating.  Let's pretend its fixed.
[05:44] <koronotomo11> ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????/
[05:44] <Talcite> bl4ck: oh crap, silly me =P here, just follow this page. You'll have to compile something
[05:44] <Scunizi> Zombine, check out this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions?highlight=%28mount%29
[05:44] <lake> is there anyone who need chinese business parter?
[05:44] <wastrel> ectospasm: that's where you'll put mp3's and other non-palm-database files

[05:45] <Carl2> thank you
[05:45] <wastrel> ectospasm: check out freewarepalm.com and find a file manager

[05:54] <Zombine> Scunizi Thanks for the help, but I gotta go try to pass soc 200 now
[05:54] <nicoAMG> Talcite: I'm searching the web without success...
[05:54] <scguy318> Carl2: yep
[05:54] <scguy318> Carl2: a fine tar
[05:54] <Scunizi> Zombine, ok.. good luck!
[05:54] <laslavic> Does anybody in here have an MSI motherboard?
[05:54] <busta812> lady:1 more thing why when i type something in terminal it says permession denied?
[05:54] <Talcite> bl4ck: hmm... you're definitely having a few problems with your CUPS setup...
[05:54] <scguy318> Carl2: extract to wherever, then cd to that directory in Terminal

[05:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ghamachi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[05:54] <b14ck> Talcite: how do i fix them though? ;D
[05:54] <Carl2> okaratas, thanks
[05:54] <Veinor> scguy318: how do I do that?

[05:55] <CMd1> Hello, does someone know a good similar Front Page on the linux?
[05:55] <kalpik> CMd1, bluefish?
[05:55] <mdj__> bluefish does look nice.
[05:55] <Talcite> bl4ck: yeah, so the cups page works? hmm...
[05:55] <Veinor> !xim
[05:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xim - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:56] <laslavic> rafaelscj: Did you have any issues with it at all, first off?
[05:56] <rafaelscj> !html
[05:56] <ubotu> html is HyperText Markup Language, used to build web pages.  Editors in Ubuntu: Bluefish, Quanta+, Screem, and KompoZer(Nvu).  For howto on HTML coding, see: http://www.w3schools.com/
[05:56] <Scunizi> CMd1, nvu and it also goes by a different name
[05:56] <busta812> why does it say permession denied when i type a command?
[05:56] <andyrug> laslavic, I have an MSI mboard, yes
[05:56] <scguy318> Veinor: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=253609 is a bit insightful
[05:56] <TerraMaster> When I try to run an app in wine I get: MIcrosoft Visual C++ Runtime error - R6025 ~ Pure virtual function call
[05:56] <scguy318> TerraMaster: what app
[05:57] <laslavic> andyrug: Did you have any issues with your board? Particularly with regard to the way it recognizes devices?
[05:57] <TerraMaster> Lunia
[05:57] <scguy318> Carl2: you extracted ok?
[05:57] <Jolan> busta /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max
[05:57] <Carl2> scguy318,  what is the full string again? Man, this is great.. even if it does not work :)
[05:57] <b14ck> hey Talcite. i noticed that if i try to print a test page from cups via the webpage, it says "Error: Quota limit reached." even though there is nothing in the queue
[05:57] <scguy318> Carl2: for?
[05:57] <CMd1> kalpik...yes..I know, but do you know other easier to programing?
[05:57] <busta812> jolan:i typed that but it says permession denied
[05:57] <rafaelscj> laslavic, my system reboots ramdomly
[05:57] <Carl2> i saved it to decktop
[05:58] <Carl2> so what  is the terminal command?
[05:58] <Talcite> bl4ck: hmm... well I'm trying to look up info regarding the authentication
[05:58] <Elda> how do I determine my kernel?
[05:58] <andyrug> laslavic, hmm, now you mention it, yes - i seem to remember something about my soundcard preferring to be in a different slot
[05:58] <Talcite> bl4ck: I'm not sure why you have that error actually
[05:58] <scguy318> Carl2: did you extract the tar yet?
[05:58] <scguy318> Elda: uname -r
[05:58] <wastrel> Elda: uname -r
[05:59] <mdj__> IS the little square window normal while the install is going? NO progress bars or anything?
[05:59] <TerraMaster> When I try to run an app in wine I get: MIcrosoft Visual C++ Runtime error - R6025 ~ Pure virtual function call This is when running a mmorpg called Lunia
[05:59] <Carl2> sc. i amsorry, by extract.. man.. i have  only downloaded it to decktop
[05:59] <busta812> it says permession denied when i type a command can any 1 help?
[05:59] <Carl2> desktop
[05:59] <kalpik> CMd1, others already gave you a list of editors.. try those!
[05:59] <scguy318> Carl2: just go ahead and extract the tar right now
[05:59] <laslavic> Here is what is happening on this machine. It has two different SATA controllers. One of which has 1 SATA port, the other has 4. When I plug my hard drive into one, the CMOS Configuration recognizes it, but nothing else does. When I plug it in the other one, everything but the CMOS sees it (it's even listed during what I asume is the BIOs post).
[05:59] <scguy318> Carl2: then just cd to where you extracted it in Terminal by doing: cd ~/Desktop/foldernamehere
[05:59] <laslavic> It's the weirdest thing I've ever dealt with.
[06:00] <laslavic> It's almost like there are two different BIOs on this board, and that one is loaded after the other.
[06:00] <laslavic> And only one can see this drive at the time.
[06:00] <Carl2> okaratas,  man, i am ashamed..  by extract, you mean?
[06:01] <Jolan> busta did you type sudo vi /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max
[06:01] <CMd1> yes...now I see....thanks everybody
[06:01] <Talcite> bl4ck: hmm it seems like a pretty complicated bug with no clear solution =/
[06:01] <andyrug> laslavic, sorry - but i have no knowledge of sata, my board gave me issues with PCI devices specifically
[06:01] <Talcite> bl4ck: perhaps reinstall cups as a last-ditch effort? do a complete reinstall
[06:01] <busta812> oh now it came out =O
[06:01] <Talcite> config files and all
[06:01] <b14ck> Talcite: damn. there is always a crap answer for printing in linux/unix :(
[06:01] <busta812> tyvm jolan
[06:02] <sandrot> anyone else think firefox sucks in ubuntu?
[06:02] <randy> ......................
[06:02] <Talcite> bl4ck: yeah, it gets complicated because most printer manufacturers don't give open source drivers
[06:02] <busta812> 1 more question jolan how do i change it delete the number n put new 1?
[06:02] <jiju> sandrot: why
[06:02] <Carl2> i am able to doubleclick on it on the desktop, so i figured it was in the form fior execution
[06:02] <b14ck> Talcite: ya
[06:02] <b14ck> Talcite: such a pain in teh ass
[06:03] <heguru> b14ck: can you repeat your problem? i don't want to scroll up and hunt for it?
[06:03] <Carl2> there are two  files within, the .inf and .sys
[06:03] <laslavic> Now, this is a problem because when I boot the LiveCD, for the LiveCD to work well and even recognize the hard disk, I have to have it in the first SATA. And it even installs fine. BUT then I get a GRUB Error 21, almost certainly because the CMOS doesn't have it listed. But then if I put it in the other one at this point, it never makes it past the loading screen of Ubuntu.
[06:03] <scguy318> Carl2: File Roller should start when you open the tar, just press the extract button to w/e
[06:03] <heguru> b14ck: printing is pretty stable in linux now
[06:03] <Jolan> busta did you type sudo gedit /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max
[06:03] <andyrug> sandrot, i was blaming my 1.7ghz celeron for firefox being a little below par
[06:03] <b14ck> heguru: basically, i am trying to print to a hp laserjet 1020, and my computer recognizes it locally, and it says the status is "ready", but whenever i print, nothing comes out
[06:03] <heguru> HP laserjet 1020 works fine with ubuntu
[06:03] <b14ck> heguru: it says "printing..." in the status, but after a few minutes, it goes back to "ready", and nothing works
[06:03] <heguru> b14ck: so lets try to check your problem
[06:04] <b14ck> heguru: ok
[06:04] <heguru> b14ck: first the paper size, is it configured correctly?
[06:04] <busta812> jolan:ya and a folder came out wat i do next?
[06:04] <scguy318> b14ck: try gksudo hp-setup for printer setup?
[06:04] <jiju> andyrug: you could use the /dev/shm as the firefox cache
[06:04] <Talcite> we should have a tier 1, tier 2 support system =D
[06:04] <b14ck> sec
[06:04] <scguy318> Carl2: yeah, just press Extract and make up a path
[06:04] <CMd1> kalpik: thanks...I will search about some these editors
[06:05] <b14ck> heguru: the paper size is correct afaik
[06:05] <b14ck> heguru im using 8.5x11 and it is set as paper size A4, paper type: standard paper
[06:05] <Carl2> ok
[06:05] <andyrug> jiju, thank you - i shall go research now
[06:05] <Jolan> busta see my convo
[06:05] <Scunizi> b14ck, you can change that by going to http://localhost:631 which is cups.. there you can set the default for the ssytem.
[06:06] <busta812> im new to this whats convo?
[06:06] <InSaNiTyIG> !pm
[06:06] <ubotu> Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[06:06] <jiju> sandrot, andyrug: we are facing a problem, after running for about a couple of hours, firefox disappears itself
[06:06] <b14ck> Scunizi: i dont need to change the default printer
[06:06] <Scunizi> b14ck, no.  but you need to change the A4 to Letter.
[06:06] <b14ck> scguy318, gksudo hp-setup shows no printers recognized
[06:06] <InSaNiTyIG> heguru: may i pm you instead of losing my question in the abyss of the channel?
[06:06] <jiju> and when started again.. it tries to restore.. the session and most of the time, looses again
[06:07] <scguy318> b14ck: mm, guess HPLIP no support your printer
[06:07] <jiju> then we need to restart the machines..
[06:07] <Jolan> busta  type sudo vi /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max
[06:07] <b14ck> scguy318: what is HPLIP
[06:07] <Cryoniq> Im thinking of building a home NAS with 3 s-ata raided disks. Anyone got experience? What is a good s-ata raid controller to choose when building a ubuntu linux NAS?
[06:07] <scguy318> b14ck: HP's official Linux printer driver
[06:07] <andyrug> jiju, this problem when using /dev/shm specifically?
[06:07] <jiju> nope
[06:07] <scguy318> Carl2: done?
[06:07] <jiju> these are all the office machines, and are qute powerfull
[06:08] <Carl2> ok :)
[06:08] <busta812> ok
[06:08] <Carl2> I have tfe terminal pointing to it
[06:08] <jiju> I coaxed the whole bunch to ubuntu.. and now I am in a fix
[06:08] <b14ck> scguy318: hey look at my log of what happens when i run sudo gksudo hp-setup: http://rafb.net/p/FFxzft84.html
[06:08] <b14ck> scguy318: any idea from that what is happening?
[06:08] <busta812> what i do after i type that?
[06:08] <scguy318> b14ck: thats not how you run it :)
[06:08] <scguy318> b14ck: just gksudo hp-setup since hp-setup is GUI
[06:08] <scguy318> b14ck: and gksudo is your GUI sudo
[06:08] <Carl2> the terminal pointing to :~/Desktop/INFINF$
[06:08] <Jolan> busta then you type cw to change the number
[06:09] <Scunizi> b14ck, you can find the correct driver here.. http://www.linuxcompatible.org/compatdbprint18146.html
[06:09] <b14ck> scguy318: scguy318 ok. well i just did it that way too, and i get the same thing
[06:09] <andyrug> jiju, my firefox also sometimes closes unexpectedly, but i have it prompt whether to restore session at each startup
[06:09] <jiju> a team of 60 php/web developers were migrated fully from WinXP environment to ubuntu through the last one month
[06:09] <b14ck> scguy318: lemme paste the new log
[06:09] <scguy318> Carl2: k now do sudo ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf
[06:09] <jiju> i think the latest update has it fixed..
[06:09] <busta812> what u mean type cw?
[06:09] <jiju> FF 2.0.0.6
[06:09] <scguy318> Carl2: any errors?
[06:09] <b14ck> scguy318: http://rafb.net/p/6jIkUp32.html <-- this is the new printer log from gksudo
[06:10] <Jolan> busta in the file do you see a number like 131071
[06:10] <handl3r> anyone know if i can decrypt a drive in ubuntu that i encrypted in windows with pgp?
[06:10] <scguy318> b14ck: does no GUI window open?
[06:10] <busta812> yes
[06:10] <jiju> andyrug: would you mind telling me your location?
[06:10] <b14ck> scguy318: the gui wnidow opened, and i tried searching for a local printer, but none were detected
[06:10] <jiju> i mean country/city
[06:10] <scguy318> b14ck: :(
[06:10] <Carl2> i am not configured to copy the commands herre so having to type them manually.  lol,  ztrl c  is not copying, so i am a little slow
[06:10] <Jolan> in the file if you type cw(which means change word) you can edit the text
[06:11] <scguy318> b14ck: do look at Scuzini's link: http://www.linuxcompatible.org/compatdbprint18146.html
[06:11] <andyrug> jiju, uk, why?
[06:11] <b14ck> scguy318: why does it get detected when i run the print manager gui from system->administration but not by this program
[06:11] <jiju> just curious
[06:11] <b14ck> ok
[06:11] <jiju> i am not always online..
[06:11] <busta812> ok
[06:11] <jiju> and just installed the chatzilla; an extensiton to mozilla\
[06:11] <Jolan> then you change it to what you want
[06:11] <scguy318> b14ck: probably cuz HPLIP doesn't support your printer
[06:11] <busta812> and click eneter?
[06:11] <b14ck> scguy318: damn!
[06:11] <jiju> ie why I came online
[06:12] <Jolan> then hit the esc button
[06:12] <Scunizi> scguy318, the printer is rated 5 out of 5 stars on linux .. use driver at http://www.linuxcompatible.org/compatdbprint18146.html
[06:12] <handl3r> anyone know if i can decrypt a drive in ubuntu that i encrypted in windows with pgp?
[06:12] <Jolan> then type :x!
[06:12] <scguy318> b14ck: look at Scunizi's link
[06:12] <b14ck> scguy318: i am
[06:12] <Cryoniq> Where can I find out which s-ata raid controllers work best with ubuntu linux?
[06:12] <scguy318> Carl2: done?
[06:13] <Carl2> installing bcmwl5 ...
[06:13] <Carl2> forcing parameter IBSSGMode from 0 to 2
[06:13] <Carl2> that was al she gave me
[06:13] <scguy318> Carl2: good, pastebin the output of ndiswrapper -l
[06:14] <Carl2> what i posted above was all it showed
[06:14] <busta812> ok
[06:14] <scguy318> Carl2: that's good :) pastebin the output of ndiswrapper -l
[06:14] <yggdrasil> how can i tel lmy cpu temp from cmd line ?
[06:14] <Jolan> busta you should be able to go back in the file and see the number you put in
[06:14] <scguy318> Carl2: though you could just paste it here cuz its like 2 lines
[06:15] <jiju> hi all I just procured a machine with intel S3000AH Mobo and Q6600  proc w/4G DDR2; would the stock ubuntu perform well provided my primary aim is a lamp server
[06:15] <Carl2> what command,  sudo nds wrapper -L?
[06:15] <yggdrasil> how can i tel lmy cpu temp from cmd line ?
[06:15] <jiju> or do I have to do the stuff like recompile etc??
[06:15] <bennymex> need help!  i know nothing about linux or unbuntu. but i wiped my hard-drive and tried to install ubuntu (both the alternate and other) but an error apears: "  boot failure reboot and select proper device or insert boot media in selected boot device" i changed it to boot first from cd already... so dont suggest that...  should i donwload some other version of of ubuntu for this or should i just try some other linux?
[06:15] <busta812> i type wat u told me b4 to check it?
[06:15] <scguy318> Carl2: just ndiswrapper -l
[06:15] <CineScope> yggdrasil: sensors
[06:15] <Carl2> manchicken, this  is really hand holding
[06:16] <manchicken> What now?
[06:16] <handl3r> hai
[06:16] <handl3r> anyone know if i can decrypt a drive in ubuntu that i encrypted in windows with pgp?
[06:16] <b14ck> scguy318: hrm. i followed the guide, but still not getting any results
[06:16] <Scunizi> bennymex, It's quite possible that it burned badly.. try a reburn of the iso at the slowest speed possible.
[06:16] <manchicken> handl3r: Do you have the private key still?
[06:16] <handl3r> yep
[06:17] <bennymex> thanks, i did that already 4 times
[06:17] <Carl2> haha, u will laugh
[06:17] <andyrug> jiju, stock ubuntu will let you install lamp which will perform fine theoretically
[06:17] <Carl2> bcmwl5 : driver installed
[06:17] <Carl2> f5d7000-v1xxx.exe : i
[06:17] <manchicken> handl3r: Then yes, it is possible.  Sorry, I don't know how to, but there are some folks who would.
[06:17] <bennymex> with 3 different burning sofwares
[06:17] <Carl2> f5d7000-v1xxx.exe : invalid driver!
 where might i find these folks?
[06:17] <Scunizi> bennymex, if it won't boot from the cd and the cd works in another machine then maybe the drive is flakey.
[06:17] <Carl2> that one is my screwup from earlier
[06:17] <Carl2> but it is showing that the driver installed
[06:17] <jiju> yea andy; but I am anxious about the quad core, whether the kernel and apps will use all the available resources..
[06:17] <bennymex> well.  it loads the windows xp cd
[06:18] <scguy318> Carl2: k good
[06:18] <busta812> i dont understand nothing =O
[06:18] <Scunizi> bennymex, don't take this the wrong way.. but .. did you burn the iso as "data" or "image"
[06:18] <scguy318> Carl2: do sudo ndiswrapper -r f5d7000-v1xxx.exe
[06:18] <Geoff---> i don't understand nothing either!  but i don't understand much more than that :D
[06:18] <scguy318> Carl2: making sure that thing matches what ndiswrapper -l showed
[06:18] <jiju> bennymex: it happens most of the time when you burn a linux bootable cd from a windows app..
[06:18] <Carl2> ok
[06:18] <bennymex> umm.. yea.. and i dont take it the wrong way... there are plenty of idiots out there...
[06:18] <andyrug> jiju, sorry - i have no knowledge of multicores
[06:19] <jiju> no probs;
[06:19] <Jolan>  you have to type sudo vi /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max busta to view it
[06:19] <jiju> any way my team is on it.. and they will start the benchmarks today..
[06:19] <Scunizi> jiju, have you got a decent program recommendation for windows that will burn the iso for bennymex ?
[06:19] <bennymex> i did it with nero iso burning, alcohol and the onw in unbuntu site
[06:20] <manchicken> handl3r: You might find them here.  I'm just not one of them.
[06:20] <jiju> scunizi: I forgot my windows days.. long past me
 ok thanks
[06:20] <Scunizi> jiju, :)
[06:20] <busta812> i typed that and it said something like another program might me editin the same file
[06:20] <bennymex> iso recoder*
[06:20] <Geoff---> i'm thinking about moving to linux rather than vista.  MS did a wonderful job of gaying it up.  no offence to gays, bte
[06:20] <bennymex> jiju... i hope to join your club if i can just get this to work :P
[06:20] <Carl2> ok,oi did that command
[06:20] <Jolan> do you have gedit opened busta
[06:21] <scguy318> Carl2: done?
[06:21] <Carl2> yes
[06:21] <busta812> no i dont
[06:21] <Scunizi> bennymex, maybe bad batch of cd's?  I'm stretching here.. 'cause if this cd doesn't work then other won't as well.
[06:21] <scguy318> Carl2: awesome, now do
[06:21] <Carl2> so try listing again?
[06:21] <scguy318> Carl2: sudo depmod -a
[06:21] <gregorovius> Hi. I want to use fetchmail to grab a copy of my webmail daily, but ubuntu doesn't seem to come with any sendmail... any tips on which is easier to setup?
[06:21] <scguy318> Carl2: and sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[06:21] <Jolan> another terminal window open with that file displayed perhaps
[06:21] <Carl2> ok
[06:21] <bennymex> anyway.. ive been hours searching for a solution to this problems and ive found ppl with similar problems
[06:21] <bennymex> in similar computers.. (hp and compaq)
[06:21] <busta812> it also says  An edit session for this file crashed
[06:22] <scguy318> Carl2: we're not done yet, but you can now test your network adapter
[06:22] <Scunizi> bennymex, it's rare... there's usually another issue that isn't discovered... maybe put the iso on a usb stick and take it to a friends to burn.. swap one of your cd for his.
[06:22] <jiju> well a colleage just suggested (http://malektips.com/xp_dos_0029.html)
[06:22] <bennymex> and the discs work fine.  ive burned music on the recently and played it both in different computers and in cs plater
[06:22] <bennymex> player...
[06:22] <scguy318> Carl2: try and see if you can connect
[06:22] <busta812> ok i pressed eneter and that number 131071 came out
[06:23] <busta812> what i do after that?
[06:23] <Netham45> how can I force ubuntu to not ask for the Feisty Server CD and download from the repos?
[06:23] <Carl2> okaratas, now
[06:23] <Netham45> the CD drive on this pc has gone bad.
[06:23] <chuy_max> Netham45, modifying sources.list
[06:23] <Scunizi> bennymex, you can always order free ubuntu cd's from shipit
[06:23] <Netham45> ok, thanks.
[06:23] <Jolan> type cw busta then type what you want to change it to. Then type :x! which should take you out of the file
[06:23] <Carl2> everything seemed to have gone through
[06:23] <chuy_max> Netham45, if you are not comfortable with command line, use synaptic, you have the option too
[06:24] <jiju> or if you can get a spare machine, setup the network install
[06:24] <bennymex> hmm
[06:24] <scguy318> Carl2: we're not quite done yet (we need to get ndiswrapper to load on startup) but we're almost there
[06:24] <kalpik> chuy_max, he's running the server edition.. no gui :P
[06:24] <scguy318> Carl2: is your network card functional?
[06:24] <bennymex> i might do that.
[06:24] <Carl2> i am gonna lose this id and chat on the other
[06:24] <Netham45> chuy_max: Im actually rather comfortable with the command line
[06:24] <bennymex> thanks...    ill try some other linux os first tho
[06:24] <bennymex> .
[06:24] <Carl2> okaratas, i see no light on it
[06:24] <Netham45> I just set up ndiswrapper and my network card on the command line. :D
[06:24] <Netham45> only took me about half an hour too. ^_^
[06:24] <Carl2> manchicken, how do i access it? with network setting?
[06:25] <Netham45> >.<
[06:25] <Netham45> I need a webpage from my other PC
[06:26] <Netham45> that explains how to get a network bridge going, but I need the network bridge to get the page. crap.
[06:26] <scguy318> Carl2: access what?
[06:26] <Carl2> i go under network settings and  it is still not listed there
[06:26] <andyrug> bennymex, also, ubuntu is frequently cover mounted on linux magazines (often dvd)
[06:26] <idiot> i have feisty and am trying to get composite working with glx stuff..xcompmgr and transset set window transparency just fine for normal windows, but doesn't seem to work for the main drawable area when running glxgears....any suggestions?
[06:27] <scguy318> Carl2: when you did ndiswrapper -l, was there something that said alternate driver?
[06:27] <Carl2> and the ligght on the modem has not lit up
[06:27] <Carl2> no
[06:27] <Carl2> u want me to do again?
[06:27] <scguy318> Carl2: no, lets continue with getting ndiswrapper to load on startup then you reboot
[06:27] <scguy318> Carl2: are you using nm-applet or what?
[06:27] <busta812> jolan itsays warning:the file has change since reading it
[06:28] <handl3r> is there a way to disable grub temporarily?
[06:28] <Carl2> heaven help me,  i don't know what that uis.. the jargon is all new to me
[06:28] <Carl2> this is first day..
[06:29] <manchicken> handl3r: Why would you want to do that?
[06:29] <scguy318> Carl2: there's a GNOME network icon in your notification tray, can you use that?
[06:29] <Carl2> yes.
 so i can get rid of the pgp prompt on boot
[06:29] <Carl2> it is showing the wired connection
[06:29] <manchicken> han
[06:30] <manchicken> handl3r: Ah.  Dunno know what to tell you on that one.  I've never encrypted a whole volume before.
[06:30] <scguy318> Carl2: k in Terminal do sudo ndiswrapper -m
 yes i guess i should have decrypted it before installing ubuntu
[06:31] <scguy318> Carl2: then do gksudo gedit /etc/modules, then add ndiswrapper to the end of the file, then save
[06:31] <scguy318> Carl2: then reboot and see if it works now
[06:32] <drakode> how I can enter like super user root?
[06:32] <scguy318> drakode: sudo -i or sudo -s
[06:33] <Carl2> okaratas, done, will reboot now

[06:52] <InSaNiTyIG> such as KMess on gnome
[06:52] <qual> why wouldnt it be able to
[06:52] <KurtKraut> InSaNiTyIG: sure, consuming more RAM space but will work perfectly.
[06:52] <tyb_saz> ok...can u tell me where culd u chat like for regular???
[06:52] <KurtKraut> tyb_saz: unfortunately, no.
[06:53] <qual> tyb_saz, 4 regulir ? try the #aol

[06:53] <InSaNiTyIG> how much ram increase could i see?

[06:53] <tyb_saz> danx
[06:53] <Madpilot> tyb_saz, there's #ubuntu-offtopic if you just want to chat...
[06:53] <KurtKraut> InSaNiTyIG: hard to predict.
[06:53] <KurtKraut> InSaNiTyIG: but I would doubt more than the double.
[06:53] <InSaNiTyIG> enough to make the system run noticably slower
[06:53] <CountX> andyrug: ill give it a go

[06:59] <administrat0r> googling ubuntu ultimate now, thanks
[06:59] <databoy2k> np - it's got some extra fun features as well :D
[07:00] <administrat0r> version 1.3?
[07:00] <databoy2k> ...mind you I'm having issues with my RT61 card in it... but I think the issues are more with my lack of knowledge than anything else
[07:00] <databoy2k> current's 1.4 - it runs feisty fawn
[07:00] <databoy2k> google brings up the link for 1.3 tho I know... poke around the site a bit more
[07:00] <administrat0r> I have not had much success downloading from the internet and burning, but I will look into this. thanks databoy
[07:01] <databoy2k> np good luck!
[07:02] <heguru> administrat0r: did you install?
[07:02] <administrat0r> now...heguru, I think that is my problem
[07:02] <InSaNiTyIG> heguru
[07:02] <administrat0r> I tried the install cd
[07:02] <InSaNiTyIG> i fixed the problem
[07:03] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: gr8 :D
[07:03] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: what was it?
[07:03] <InSaNiTyIG> a config file
[07:03] <administrat0r> it installed well into windows
[07:03] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: which one?
[07:03] <degreseven> is there a way to tell the update manager to ignore an update? it keeps telling me there is a new compiz version available, but it's the same version that's already installed
[07:03] <administrat0r> but I cannot install into ubuntu
[07:03] <InSaNiTyIG> in usr/share/acpi-support
[07:03] <InSaNiTyIG> i was looking online for awhile
[07:03] <InSaNiTyIG> went into the lib.sh
[07:04] <InSaNiTyIG> cuz many people said it was broken for them
[07:04] <heguru> ok
[07:04] <InSaNiTyIG> i went thru the code, then edited IBM.confic
[07:04] <InSaNiTyIG> IBM.config*
[07:04] <InSaNiTyIG> and ACPI_SLEEP was set to true
[07:04] <heguru> InSaNiTyIG: well good to know that
[07:04] <InSaNiTyIG> so i changed it to false
[07:04] <InSaNiTyIG> and bingo
[07:04] <administrat0r> is there any way I can get ubuntu 7.04 to recognize the new video card?
[07:04] <gregshallard> Edgy or Feisty?
[07:05] <CountX> andyrug: ok, in nautalis i can see the video file, that i cant play, and its represented with an icon, and its a picture of about halfway through the movie
[07:06] <CountX> andyrug: wtf is up with that, it can see the movie but i cant?
[07:06] <heguru> administrat0r: can you boot into liveCD ?
[07:06] <administrat0r> (how can someone know the difference between edgy and feisty?)
[07:06] <administrat0r> heguru, I do have a live cd
[07:06] <heguru> administrat0r: Feisty is the name for 7.04, edgy for 6.10
[07:06] <administrat0r> I got feisty.
[07:07] <administrat0r> any way if I set teh boot to boot from cd this will help?
[07:07] <gregshallard> I'm thinking of going back to edgy on the laptop what do you guys think?
[07:07] <administrat0r> once booted and running from the cd, what do I do
[07:07] <graphyx> I am having problems playing Xvid encoded videos on mplayer
[07:07] <heguru> administrat0r: well once you're running from the CD, install Ubuntu
[07:07] <gregshallard> administrat0r, click Install off desktop and follow the prompts
[07:07] <databoy2k> !quit Trying something...
[07:07] <graphyx> it show is, but it appears marginally interlaced.
[07:07] <graphyx> but it isn't interlacing.
[07:08] <administrat0r> ok.............just to let you know, I have ubuntu, and it was running well, until I installed a new video card.

[07:16] <Semidios> Okay, so after trying every thing I could find on setting up afp on my linux box so i could connect to my Mac Laptop I've given up on that approach.  What I am looking to do is to be able to mount my linux box on my Mac Laptop and my Mac Laptop on my Linux box.  So I'm thinking I'm going to have to use FTP.  followed a tutorial I found online, which makes the shares show up on each other.  but when I connect to them, nothin

[07:17] <andyrug> CountX, the hardware requirements for HD are very high ( http://www2.hardwarezone.com/articles/view.php?cid=19&id=2108&pg=2 )
[07:20] <heguru> randy: well i am busy helping 2 other ppl at the moment, try to see if anyone else can help you in the meantime, i will be with you once i am free
[07:20] <randy> heguru ok np.
[07:20] <randy> could anyone help me with my nvidia drivers?
[07:21] <sandrot> randy tried envy installer?
[07:21] <sandrot> randy: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[07:21] <bruenig> !envy | randy  sandrot
[07:21] <ubotu> randy  sandrot: 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!
[07:21] <CountX> andyrug: i played 1080i 25mb/s video on  the same laptop, using the CoreAVC codec on windows
[07:21] <randy> sandrot yes it installed without an error. but im not getting my opengl to work
[07:21] <bruenig> hmm, sounds about right
[07:22] <CountX> andyrug: are ya tellin me i cant play 720p 5mb/s video on the SAME laptop?
[07:22] <sandrot> ubotu: thanks for advice!
[07:22] <randy> ubotu bruenig sandrot i used envy first and then i reinstalled it ith the package manager
[07:22] <sandrot> bruenig: thanks for advice
[07:23] <andyrug> CountX, I'm unsure what you can do, sorry
[07:23] <alienjeff> startkeylogger
[07:23] <bruenig> oh great, so now we have two things one of which is completed abstracted, we don't know if he had files being overwritten
[07:23] <CountX> sandrot: thank ubotu aswell
[07:23] <bruenig> perhaps version mismatches
[07:23] <sandrot> can anyone run http://ui.jquery.com/ demos successfully in firefox under ubuntu?
[07:23] <bruenig> awesome
[07:23] <heguru> CountX: can you tell me the problem again?
[07:24] <CountX> heguru: HD video that plays fine in windows, plays all choppy under linux, using totem
[07:24] <randy> i just want my opengl and my 3d accelerationand rendering to work go i could go and play nfs...i dont want to go back to windows :S
[07:24] <bruenig> randy, although I guess such habits have been fostered from windows, click and pray is not advised
[07:24] <bruenig> hey this says it will do it, click, damn what do I do now is often the result
[07:25] <jimmywww> can anyone help me with "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0
[07:25] <randy> bruenig iv trying to fix this since 7pm..its not 1:25am
[07:25] <bruenig> randy, I am advising you on methodology
[07:26] <jimmywww> ?
[07:26] <KevinBooks> startkeylogger+
[07:26] <randy> bruenig i want advice on how to fix it :)
[07:26] <bruenig> randy, if you understand what is going on, you will actually be able to do it for one and two be able to undo it, now we have two different drivers installed, one precompiled, the other not, there could be version mismatches, there could be overwritten files
[07:26] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, what did you try?
[07:26] <jimmywww> can anyone help me with Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0
[07:26] <bruenig> randy, I mean the system as you described it is a troubleshooting mess, it is hard to even know what it looks like
[07:26] <CountX> heguru: think you can help?
[07:26] <jimmywww> i am a noob
[07:27] <jimmywww> so nothing really
[07:27] <CountX> heguru: it would be nice to be able to play HD video, seeing as i can do it in winblows, shouldnt i be able to do it in ubuntu?
[07:27] <randy> bruenig i guess u are aright..so u think i should reinstall ubuntu?
[07:27] <CountX> !bug#1
[07:27] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[07:27] <jimmywww> i disabled the floppy driver for one
[07:27] <jimmywww> lol
[07:27] <heguru> CountX: can you provide me with more information
[07:28] <CountX> heguru: SURE id be glad to, what kind?
[07:28] <jimmywww> so what should i try
[07:28] <bruenig> randy, I mean there is always a way to undo something (well pretty much), but since you aren't even sure what you did the first time, it will be hard to undo it. I mean you know you clicked something but you don't know what that was supposed to do...
[07:28] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, disable? at BIOS?
[07:28] <heguru> CountX: first if you can join #ubuntu-hdvideo its crowded here
[07:28] <CountX> OK
[07:28] <jimmywww> rafaelscj, yep
[07:28] <PoofDaddy> Doesn't mplayer play rm files?
[07:29] <bruenig> randy, its one thing if you clicked something from ubuntu, those are standardized and should be trackable, but when you go into third party stuff you are pretty much out on your own
[07:29] <PoofDaddy> I'm trying to view the following under Edgy: http://www.bbc.co.uk/spanish/avconsole/bb_rm_fs.shtml?redirect=fs.shtml&lang=es&nbram=1&nbwm=1&bbwm=1&bbram=1&ws_pathtostory=http://www.bbc.co.uk/spanish/avnews/avfile/2007/09/&ws_storyid=070921_telescopioinfrarrojo
[07:29] <Carl> hi, any helpers around?..  still working on my wireless  card
[07:29] <Carl> and have better information
[07:29] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, tell us more
[07:30] <jimmywww> well
[07:30] <Ademan_> http://lifehacker.com/photogallery/Desktop-Show-and-Tell-for-Linux/2683917  can anyone name that system information widget?
[07:30] <jimmywww> it is an old thinkpad
[07:30] <randy> bruenig well i installed the drivers using envy and then i installed cedega but 3d acceleration and opengl were failing along wid rendering.. so i used to package manager to reinstall the drivers. but its the same thing.
[07:30] <jimmywww> pentium 3
[07:30] <jimmywww> 256 ram
[07:30] <jimmywww> it runs xp (slowly)
[07:31] <bruenig> randy, you don't understand, these drivers are not the same, they come from different places. This is one of the problems with abstraction, you think that envy and the package manager did the same thing when they didn't do anything close to the same thing
[07:31] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, you didn't do anything before that error?
[07:31] <jimmywww> no
[07:31] <jimmywww> i can walk u thru what happens when i boot
[07:31] <bruenig> randy, you could have file conflicts, version conflicts, etc.
[07:32] <jimmywww> but first, all im trying to do is run the live cd
[07:32] <jimmywww> so then i can decide on ubuntu
[07:32] <randy> bruenig so i will have to uninstall the separately and then reinstall one. but i was getting the prob since before i installed the other set of drivers
[07:33] <jimmywww> i boot it up
[07:33] <gregshallard> How do I make a script?
[07:33] <gregshallard> and make it execute with sudo privs?
[07:33] <bruenig> randy, well like ubotu said, envy is garbage
[07:33] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, well, did you disable the entire floppy *bus*?
[07:33] <bruenig> gregshallard, run it with sudo
[07:33] <jimmywww> i enter start or install ubuntu
[07:33] <n2diy> gregshallard: open a text file, and write it.
[07:34] <jimmywww> rafaelscj, can you explain
[07:34] <blessid> Ubuntu Feisty with Compiz and AWN is the best!!!
[07:34] <randy> bruenig so its best advised to use package manager
[07:34] <gregshallard> n2diy, and?
[07:34] <blessid> avant roxx
[07:34] <bruenig> randy, yes
[07:34] <gregshallard> n2diy, already done that, I've got the commands I want to run in it.
[07:34] <n2diy> gregshallard: type its name!
[07:34] <zylthinking> Hi, another BIG problem, I move /usr directory to another disk, but forget to modify fstab before reboot, now I can not boot the system, What can I do?
[07:34] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, you could disable only the first floppy device, or the bus that disables all devices
[07:35] <jimmywww> so what do u sugest i do
[07:36] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, I think you disabled the BUS without disabling the device (none)
[07:36] <PoofDaddy> How can I view real media with mplayer?
[07:36] <Strangelv> :: wonders if anyone besides him has experienced problems with lockups on notebooks with TTY consoles
[07:36] <zylthinking> Can I write disk with live CD?
[07:36] <heguru> PoofDaddy: you can install RealPlayer or Helixplayer on ubuntu, both will play realmedia correctly, mplayer can play it too but u need to install codecs
[07:36] <jimmywww> so  i entered bois by pressing f1 on boot up
[07:37] <jimmywww> then pressed enter
[07:37] <winbond> which distro is better slax or slackware?
[07:37] <jimmywww> to access config
[07:37] <zylthinking> any one can help?
[07:37] <InSaNiTyIG> i just noticed something. my sound isnt working
[07:37] <jimmywww> then arrowed down to floppy and pressed enter
[07:37] <n2diy> winbond: Ubuntu
[07:37] <Strangelv> winbond: I would assume that full slackware would be better as an installed OS as slax is a liveCD setup
[07:37] <InSaNiTyIG> i checked my sound config and its at 100%
[07:37] <PoofDaddy> heguru: I installed real player, but I can't seem to view the vid with it.  Could I be doing something wrong?
[07:38] <InSaNiTyIG> its not detecting any sound devices
[07:38] <jimmywww> then hit f6 to disable
[07:38] <winbond> Strangelv, ahh, ty
[07:38] <jimmywww> then hit f10 to save and quit
[07:38] <randy> bruenig does opengl need a special set of drivers apart from the normal nvidia bundle that package  manager gives?
[07:38] <winbond> n2diy, how is ubuntu better?
[07:38] <Strangelv> Windbond: But I have no experience with either.  I've stayed within the jset of .deb distros for the past decade or more
[07:38] <n2diy> winbond: your here aren't you?
[07:38] <jimmywww> and rebooted and got "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0"
[07:39] <winbond> n2diy, yeah, but u havent answered my question
[07:39] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, is there any media inside the device?
[07:39] <Strangelv> winbond: if someone was a slackware guru they probabyl wouldn't be hanging out in here unles they've dumped it or similar
[07:39] <jimmywww> there is no floppy
[07:39] <jimmywww> drive
[07:39] <zylthinking>  Hi, another BIG problem, I move /usr directory to another disk, but forget to modify fstab before reboot, now I can not boot the system, What can I do? anyone can Help???
[07:40] <jimmywww> the laptop cd drive can be swapped for a floppy
[07:40] <Strangelv> zylthinking: grab a livecd
[07:40] <jimmywww> and interchained
[07:40] <Strangelv> zylthinking: get the relevant partitions mounted and move or copy the files
[07:41] <zylthinking> Strangelv: I have booted with live CD, but I can't write files, even mounted rw, seems live cd refuse any writing operation on harddisc
[07:41] <n2diy> winbond: of course, I can't, ask on the slack or slackware channels? Or don't they have any?\
[07:41] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, did you try to bootup when it was enabled?
[07:42] <jimmywww> yep
[07:42] <jimmywww> oh
[07:42] <jimmywww> i screwed up explaining something
[07:42] <Strangelv> You may need to do someq tinkering to find which LiveCD system will give you root access everywhere and how to get it to do that
[07:42] <jimmywww> when it is says something about tty
[07:42] <Strangelv> zylthinking: I've not spent enough time with livecd systems to help you with that, unfortunately
[07:43] <jimmywww> *when it boots it says something about tty
[07:43] <jimmywww> i booting now
[07:43] <zylthinking> who knows the root password in livecd?
[07:44] <Strangelv> I ran into the same problem with Debian 4.0, but not with Suse 64
[07:44] <sauvin> I've heard that password is randomised.
[07:44] <Strangelv> "Thing is, I don't want to run an RPM based distro
[07:44] <jimmywww> "/bin/sh: can't acess tty; job control turned off"
[07:45] <Strangelv> Last I checked Knoppix didn't go through the formality of a password
[07:45] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, tty is like a terminal
[07:45] <Strangelv> "if there's one under the hood somewhere I never noticed it
[07:45] <jimmywww> okay
[07:45] <jimmywww> so what is the fix
[07:45] <xerxe> hello
[07:45] <Strangelv> can't access TTY -- that may be stranger than my problem
[07:46] <loganaden> as expected
[07:46] <loganaden> a LOT of people
[07:46] <jose> hi / hola
[07:46] <loganaden> greetings everyone
[07:46] <jimmywww> so what do we think should happen
[07:47] <Strangelv> jimmywww: my troubleshooting experience is mainly limited to problems I've personally run into
[07:47] <rafaelscj> does anyone know what's causing this error : "/bin/sh: can't acess tty; job control turned off" ? while booting a liveCD
[07:47] <Strangelv> "if it helps, rafaelscj seems to have the same one you do
[07:47] <loganaden> hello
[07:47] <Strangelv> "What are the commonalities between jimmywww's problem and rafaelscj's?
[07:47] <loganaden> My friend has ubuntu installed on his computer
[07:48] <Strangelv> "That may explain what's wrong
[07:48] <loganaden> Repo is synchronised to stable
[07:48] <ectospasm> is there any way to kill gpilotd?  It won't do my file transfer, and I can't seem to kill the daemon
[07:48] <ectospasm> every time I kill it, it respawns
[07:48] <loganaden> Problem is that it has firefox 1.5
[07:48] <Strangelv> "kill -9 /processid/ dooesn't do it?
[07:48] <Strangelv> oh
[07:48] <jimmywww> i will try
[07:48] <Strangelv> so something's automatically restarting it
[07:48] <loganaden> He needs firefox 2.0
[07:49] <sandrot> is rhythmbox supposed to take up 52 megs of ram?
[07:49] <pyr3> Is there a better way to edit the menus in GNoME than to use `alacarte` ?
[07:49] <ectospasm> sandrot:  that wouldn't surprise me
[07:49] <loganaden> When I explained to him how to use apt-get
[07:49] <sandrot> ectospasm: hmm, recommend anything lighter weight?
[07:49] <ectospasm> Strangelv:  gnome daemon for syncing with PalmOS devices
[07:49] <ectospasm> sandrot:  audacious maybe
[07:50] <rrbiz> intel M not scaling any advice ?
[07:50] <Strangelv> loganaden: there's multiple GUI update solutions, but I can't really help as I've not really used any of them
[07:50] <pyr3> decibel looks lighter weight... it's GTK only, I don't think it reqs gnome
[07:50] <jimmywww> now i get "kill: Bad PID ' /processid/'
[07:50] <Strangelv> ectospasm: so that's why I've not encountered it...
[07:50] <mcnugget> I have a problem installing ubuntu to my laptop. Now I've already created a partition for it, but once I load ubuntu by cd, then go through the process of installing it. I come to a halt where It should go. It only shows hdd1 and hdd2 not the partition I created for it. What should I do??
[07:51] <Strangelv> mcnugget: What mount points do you have the partitions set to?
[07:51] <jimmywww> so has anyone fixed this problem
[07:51] <pyr3> How did you create the partition for it?  Through Ubuntu install CD?  Or through OSX or Windows?
[07:52] <Strangelv> jimmywww: you may need to wait and ask again: it's the same boat I'm in
[07:52] <Strangelv> no one seems to have heard of my tty console problem
[07:52] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, I am looking for at Google
[07:52] <jimmywww> thx, i have done a lot of looking
[07:53] <mcnugget> Pyre: through win
[07:53] <mcnugget> strangelv: Should I edit the partition manual or do auto when it asks me. Other than that I haven't done anything with the mountpoints
[07:53] <jimmywww> i have heard it is something to do with ide?
[07:54] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, do you have any ntfs partition?
[07:54] <pyr3> mcnugget, are you installing from the livecd ?
[07:54] <jimmywww> and the kennel
[07:54] <mcnugget> pyre: yes
[07:54] <wwjimmy> peace schlikkas
[07:54] <jimmywww> um, probably not
[07:54] <pyr3> mcnugget, run gparted
[07:55] <mcnugget> pyr3: ??
[07:55] <pyr3> the name of the program is "GParted"
[07:55] <pyr3> It should be on the LiveCD somewhere.
[07:55] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, you have windows, right?
[07:55] <mcnugget> pyre: ok
[07:55] <jimmywww> rafaelscj, no
[07:56] <jimmywww> yes i have windows
[07:56] <jimmywww> no nfs
[07:56] <pyr3> It's the program that the install *should* run for you.  If the install is having a funky time with your partition tables you'll have to run it manually.
[07:57] <mcnugget> pyr3: is Gparted= Gnome partion editor?
[07:57] <pyr3> Yea
[07:57] <jimmywww> hang on
[07:57] <jimmywww> maybe
[07:57] <jimmywww> i do
[07:57] <jimmywww> probably
[07:58] <jimmywww> i should because the machine runs windows
[07:58] <jimmywww> i not very familar with the files systems
[07:58] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, you can use terminal after getting that eror, right?
[07:58] <zylthinking> Strangelv: haha, I succeed, root in live CD have no password, but su command can't change you to be root, sudo -s -H command do. :)
[07:58] <MicrosoftSpy> Anyone know what the difference between compiz and compiz fusion is ?
[07:59] <pyr3> MicrosoftSpy, CompizFusion = Compiz + Beryl
[07:59] <jimmywww> i can type on a black screen under the erorr
[07:59] <jimmywww> so i think so
[07:59] <MicrosoftSpy> Ohh.....thanks pyr3
[07:59] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, type Ctrl+c
[07:59] <jimmywww> okay
[08:00] <jimmywww> i will boot again

[08:01] <jimmywww> or type Ctrl+c
[08:01] <kevor> maybe it's confusing, but it can be valuable information...
[08:01] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, CTRL+c

[08:08] <databoy2k> pyr: i never do - and I'm currently dual-booted into XP as without the wireless card I have no internet
[08:08] <jimmywww> i only have one
[08:08] <jimmywww> it is a thinkpad laptop
[08:08] <ubuntu_headache> i cant connect to my wireless  network...my wireless is usb dlink g122..unable to connect only can detect network..can anyone help?
[08:08] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, sudo fdisk -l
[08:08] <Fesha> Question: I cant seem to start slide Shows in mythTV from the image gallery
[08:08] <jimmywww> okay
[08:09] <xuxiaodong> hello
[08:09] <guris> Alright. I will wait and hope someone will help me :(((
[08:09] <Strangelv> gurls: how good are you at a command prompt?
[08:09] <pyr3> All these wireless woes are why I plan on having an Intel or Atheros chipset in my next laptop :P
[08:09] <jetscreamer> a what?
[08:09] <guris> not very good. Iam newb :(
[08:10] <guris> new to linux
[08:10] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, ah, you could use a pendrive
[08:10] <jimmywww> i type
[08:10] <databoy2k> haha :P yeah well I'm used to them - I'm running XP x64 with specially-decorated drivers to even get IT up and running :P
[08:10] <jimmywww> and get > with a blinking
[08:10] <jimmywww> _
[08:10] <Strangelv> You'll need someone who's better at xorg console commands than I am.  There's a command to run to reset things... let me find the one I have handy somewhere and confirm it won't help you
[08:10] <jimmywww> how do i get ubuntu on a pen drive
[08:11] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, that won't work (sudo....)
[08:11] <_snow_blind_> hello guys, are there any repos that offer beryl for gutsy?
[08:11] <databoy2k> so no ideas then hey pyr3?
[08:11] <pyr3> databoy2k, I have no problems, but I'm running on a 5 year old PowerBook.... apple's original Airport card was based on the prism2 chipset which is widely understood and supported under linux
[08:11] <Strangelv> gurls: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[08:11] <jimmywww> so what is you advice?
[08:11] <databoy2k> haha brutal well thanks for trying anyways :)
[08:11] <guris> thank I will try it.
[08:11] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, make an ISO of the Ubuntu liveCD
[08:11] <Strangelv> gurls: that's my only guess.  Hopefully someone with more experience will notice you
[08:12] <jimmywww> i download that
[08:12] <guris> okay no problem. thanks for help
[08:12] <jimmywww> so then what
[08:12] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, wait a moment
[08:12] <Red-Sox> Hey guys...I need a bit of help...I've done a lot of googling for this and haven't come up with anything that I understand/that helped.  But when I try to start x, an error comes up that says "Fatal Error: No Screens Found"
[08:12] <pyr3> databoy2k, I don't know.  Sounds like the problem is related to dhcp and dhcp is one area where I'm fuzzy on linux.  There are about 3 different clients, but manually working them is something I don't know of f the top of my head
[08:12] <Strangelv> "part of my problem is that *ubuntu's liveCDs lock up on boot
[08:12] <pyr3> databoy2k, Have you tried manually setting an ip, etc?
[08:12] <ubuntu_headache> i cant connect to my wireless  network...my wireless is usb dlink g122..unable to connect only can detect network..can anyone help?
[08:12] <Fesha> Question: I cant seem to start slide Shows in mythTV from the image gallery. Anyone know how I can fix it?
[08:13] <Red-Sox> So I guess it could be a problem with my video card
[08:13] <Red-Sox> but I don'tknow
[08:13] <Strangelv> I usually grab the old school alternate installer, but that has problems too.  It eventually gets me to a system that's either untstable or locks up like the liveCD.  Again, this seems to only impact DEbian based distros.  I got Suse to work, but I don't want Suse -- I'm wanting Kubuntu, which is what I've used for the past two yeras
[08:13] <Red-Sox> don't know*
[08:13] <gregorovius> ubuntu_headache, what type of encryption does your network use?
[08:13] <databoy2k> pyr3: yes... I followed an entire manual configuration guide - everything set until I got to the point where I defined my default gateway, and the terminal returned that it couldn't find the host on the network... sad considering the gw IS the network :P
[08:14] <Fesha> Anyone?
[08:14] <Red-Sox> Oh and I didn't install it with any networking...would that matter?
[08:15] <pyr3> databoy2k, I did find this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=132980

[08:15] <ubuntu_headache> i cant connect to my wireless  network...my wireless is usb dlink g122..unable to connect only can detect network..can anyone help?
[08:15] <jimmywww> do you think this will fix the problem
[08:16] <jimmywww> and what if i want to install it
[08:16] <rafaelscj> jimmywww, after install you can fix
[08:16] <jimmywww> how?
[08:16] <databoy2k> pyr3: that's another one that I followed... the problem is that the FAQ there is for Breezy 5.10 and a few of the folders that it references have disappeared from feisty
[08:16] <_h_e_l_p_> I'm having trouble with Xserver. anyone good at fixin gui problems?

[08:24] <DreadKnight> G0SUB_: perhaps just after an update?

[08:24] <kahrytan> _h_e_l_p_, Nvidia cards are the best for Linux.
[08:24] <_snow_blind_> G0SUB_: Have you tried sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals --composite ?

[08:25] <G0SUB_> _snow_blind_, I don't have Invidious cards. I have Intel.

[08:26] <databoy2k> pyr3: Thanks for that link I'll try that in a bit... As for network setup I truly don't know - it's a service provided by my university for use in the dorms, and has been a bit of a nightmare. The system is an open network that when first accessed leads IE/Firefox to a login page... I assume that I can still use the same system in linux but maybe not ...?
[08:26] <guris> I cannot install drivers
[08:26] <DreadKnight> G0SUB_ i don't use the repo anymore... compiz-fusion is default in gutsy ;)
[08:26] <kkathman> G0SUB_:  yah it was a versioning prob with the packaging
[08:26] <_h_e_l_p_> i tried vesa, but then it shows a black screen
[08:27] <_h_e_l_p_> all others say that there's no display
[08:27] <G0SUB_> DreadKnight, yeah, but I am still on feisty here. will upgrade in some time
[08:27] <databoy2k> ubuntu_headache: look above someone already posted some answers for you
[08:27] <guris> Is it help chanell????????

[08:27] <Fesha> ubuntu_headache, Well I see two problems it is USB and Dlink. How long have you had it for?
[08:28] <guris> why then nobody want to help :((( you are chatting ok
[08:28] <kkathman> guris:  I havent seen you state your issue yet
[08:28] <heguru> guris: what is the prob?
[08:28] <pyr3> databoy2k, is it possible that it uses PEEP/LEAP/whatever.  I'm not exactly sure what those are, but I think they wifi authentication methods.  Some UNis use them, and I've heard of troubles with linux and even getting osx working on them.
[08:28] <guris> I dont' want to reinstall please
[08:28] <guris> I canot boot to X
[08:28] <kkathman> guris:  what happens?
[08:28] <jmazaredo> anyone her knows where i can get a repository for the very old hoary distribution
[08:28] <guris> Because I uninstall drivers with envy
[08:29] <guris> And cannot reconfigure xord
[08:29] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: the nv drivers dnt work.
[08:29] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: i tried most of the driver list
[08:29] <databoy2k> pyr3: I know for a fact osx works great on it... i truly don't know it's a real nightmare either way... but even on windows before accessing the login page the server assigns me an IP address - you would think it would do the same for linux
[08:29] <guris> I have live CD can I repair it somehow. I am newb In linux And I need some help
[08:29] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: but only vesa would actually start X
[08:29] <kahrytan> _h_e_l_p_, Why don't copy the error logs ?
[08:29] <kkathman> guris:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xsever-xorg
[08:29] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: but the screen goes black
[08:29] <kahrytan> _h_e_l_p_, and put in pastebin
[08:29] <guris> where do i put them??
[08:30] <kkathman> guris at the command line
[08:30] <guris> I don't get promt or terminal
[08:30] <Strangelv> guris: what do you see when you boot up?
[08:30] <guris> There is no command line it just says cannot boot
[08:30] <kkathman> guris:  oh.. you cant boot at all?
[08:30] <Strangelv> guris: that is a different, more serious problem
[08:30] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: 2 problems..... i'm IRC'ing on the machine (runnin windows atm) and the integrated LAN card doesn't work
[08:30] <kkathman> guris yeah thats a big problem
[08:30] <guris> It give me error messages about there is no drivers and cannot boot to X
[08:30] <DreadKnight> do you guys shut down your pc or put it on hibernation usually?
[08:30] <kahrytan> _h_e_l_p_, no flash drive?
[08:31] <_h_e_l_p_> yea
[08:31] <_h_e_l_p_> but
[08:31] <guris> and there is very long log
[08:31] <kkathman> guris save yourself some time and just reinstall
[08:31] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: it says read only
[08:31] <Strangelv> guris: booting and starting X are two completely different things
[08:31] <kkathman> you could diagnose that for days
[08:31] <databoy2k> pyr3: thanks for all the help I'm going to try that last link... if it doesn't work then i'm going to hit the pit. Thanks man! Peace to everyone!
[08:31] <Xer1> Hi everyone.
[08:31] <kahrytan> _h_e_l_p_, read only wouldnt stop copy and paste job
[08:32] <Xer1> I was wondering if I have a serious problem on my hands
[08:32] <guris> Thank I guess that's what I will  do. just reinstall it
[08:32] <kkathman> guris:  you've obviously done something rather serious if you have alot of log entries - just reinstall it will take less time than to sort through it all
[08:32] <guris> Thanks
[08:32] <Strangelv> guris: reinstalls can be less painful under Linux, *IF* /home is its own partition
[08:32] <kkathman> Strangelv:  agreed :)
[08:32] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: when i do "cp blah.bla thumbdrive/folder/blah.bla", it says the system is read only and i cnt copy
[08:32] <guris> yes It is other partition
[08:33] <Xer1> i cant get the broadcom wireless router to work with ubuntu
[08:33] <guris> Will I loose my programs then?
[08:33] <Strangelv> guris: if /home is on the same partition as root, you'll probably want to try making a copy somehom with a liveCD
[08:33] <guris> not  on the same they are on different partitions
[08:33] <DreadKnight> if i have xubuntu on a pc and want to get ubuntu instead? it's ok if i delete the /home partition from the ubuntu setup and install it over?
[08:33] <Strangelv> guris: you'll need to reinstall your programs in either case, but your settings and data would be preserved if /home isn't reformatted
[08:33] <kahrytan> _h_e_l_p_, can you open it?
[08:33] <territorial> hi Guys, i need some tips to configure my Sony Vaio VGN-C140G with dual monitor.
[08:33] <^futuro> hi to all
[08:33] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan:
[08:33] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: yea
[08:34] <kahrytan> _h_e_l_p_, then solved
[08:34] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: i can see the stuff in it
[08:34] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: but it won't let me touch it
[08:34] <kahrytan> _h_e_l_p_, create new document on flash drive and copy paste that way
[08:34] <guris> ok. I needed my data only other
[08:34] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: k
[08:34] <guris> don't matter so much
[08:34] <guris> okay thanks.
[08:34] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: will u b here 4 a while?
[08:34] <^futuro> I have one guide for my modem but this guide is for ubuntu 6.06 and I have 7.04
[08:34] <Strangelv> guris: but if it's on the same partition as root, you'll need to back them up as they'll be wiped out.  You could run cfdisk or similar to create new partitions, and then copy your old /home into the partition you want for /home
[08:35] <Red-Sox> check out this error message after I try "startx" please: http://pastebin.ca/706748
[08:35] <kahrytan> _h_e_l_p_, I can't wit hthe nv problems. not experienced but experienced person can help with the log
[08:35] <territorial> i've trying to configure it last night... but the best that i reach is a dual monitor working, but one of then have a with screen.
[08:35] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: how do i copy n paste?
[08:35] <pyr3> DreadKnight, you can just "sudo apt-get -y install ubuntu-desktop" on a Xubuntu install.....
[08:35] <guris> Hey btw please tell me how can i install drivers from Ati
[08:35] <DreadKnight> thanks
[08:35] <pyr3> That will install all the packages and even change the usplash theme
[08:35] <Strangelv> guris: what I've been doing is making a 12 GB (12.9 pseudogigabyte) partition at the flont of the drive for root, create a four GB partition at the end for swap, and make everything in between /home
[08:36] <DreadKnight> pyr3: nice, i've seen ubuntu has packages for things like this in aptitude...
[08:36] <ompaul> guris, click in system administration Restricted drivers manager
[08:36] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: how do i copy n paste?
[08:36] <DreadKnight> pyr3: thanks :)
[08:36] <Strangelv> cfdisk uses pseudogigabytes.  It used to support real gigabytes, but stopped a few years ago
[08:36] <kahrytan> _h_e_l_p_, don't make laugh
[08:36] <kahrytan> *me
[08:36] <^futuro> help me
[08:36] <guris> so I must make root first and swap in the end right?
[08:37] <^futuro> needed to install mwave modem
[08:37] <pyr3> DreadKnight, kubuntu-desktop and edubuntu-desktop also exist as meta-packages that will install all the necessary packages
[08:37] <Strangelv> guris: what I describe is just one way to do it
[08:37] <Xer1> So my little question to everyone is that I went to the ubuntu forums, but I can't figure out how to get my driver to work with my modem
[08:37] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: -.-
[08:37] <guris> Ok I see.
[08:37] <Strangelv> guris: it's the way that has worked best for me
[08:37] <guris> thx
[08:37] <DreadKnight> pyr3: that's what i mean... but using that command will autoremove the xubuntu-destkop?
[08:37] <DreadKnight> guess not
[08:37] <Strangelv> guris: just make sure that you back up what's on your /home that's part of root before you lose everything
[08:37] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: i'm tryin not to.... but i can't exactly ^c and ^v
[08:38] <guris> Thanks for the tip
[08:38] <Xer1> I have a Compaq Presario V6000, one of the least linux friendly lappys, and I can't get my wireless to work.
[08:38] <Strangelv> guris: good luck
[08:38] <DreadKnight> pyr3: nood to know it's there too in xubuntu.. will try it out when i have the chance :)
[08:38] <pyr3> DreadKnight, nope.  And removing xubuntu-desktop *won't* remove all of it's packages.  The xubuntu-desktop package is just an empty package that installs all the other packages.
[08:38] <guris> I willl write it to CD or make another partition for data
[08:38] <Xer1> I followed all of the instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=47d8ae1669c37275d17d26dd61da0da3&t=458164 but it just says it can't find the resource.
[08:38] <DreadKnight> pyr3, oh, i see
[08:39] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: d00d... i'm a noob... lol i thought we got past that
[08:39] <^futuro> DreadKnight, hi
[08:39] <Strangelv> Xerl: have you had any problems with lockups or TTY consoles that lock up the machine?  I have a Presario F579WM and have'nt gotten as far as you have
[08:39] <DreadKnight> ^futuro heya
[08:39] <guris> hey can i resize my home partition?
[08:39] <Strangelv> guris: yes, but you'll need to ask someone else about resizing partitions
[08:39] <Strangelv> guris: I've never done it
[08:40] <^futuro> DreadKnight, you can help me to install mwave modem?
[08:40] <Xer1> Strangelv: I haven't had to many problems with getting it set up, I just used the noapic irqpoll noirqdebug tags at boot, if that was what you meant.
[08:40] <_h_e_l_p_> kahrytan: yt?
[08:40] <DreadKnight> ^futuro i'm not sure... i'll google about it
[08:40] <Strangelv> Xerl: Let me try those...
[08:40] <Strangelv> Xerl: thank you
[08:40] <dv310p3r> how can i make it so that all my folders always appear in list mode rather than in large icons?
[08:40] <Xer1> I just need the Wireless adapter to work, and I'll be good to go
[08:41] <^futuro> DreadKnight, with google I have found one guide but it isn't work
[08:41] <DreadKnight> ^futuro give me a link then
[08:41] <^futuro> DreadKnight, Ubuntu 7.04 Alternate Desktop
[08:42] <Strangelv> dv310p3r: in Konqueror?  I've been trying to do that mysely, only with tree view mode
[08:42] <Strangelv> I seem to remember that there used to be an option somewhere
[08:42] <dv310p3r> Actually I think I am using Nautilus
[08:42] <DreadKnight> ^futuro link please to that guide :D
[08:42] <dv310p3r> I might not know what im talking about though.
[08:42] <^futuro> DreadKnight, http://panopticon.csustan.edu/thood/tp600lnx.htm
[08:42] <^futuro> but it is for debian
[08:43] <buddha> where can i find a program where i can put movies that i download off the web onto a dvd to play in my dvd player?
[08:43] <Strangelv> dv310p3r: if you're running straigh up brown-colored Ubuntu you're probably not running Konqueror
[08:43] <pyr3> dv310p3r, In nautilus... Edit > Preferences
[08:43] <xerostyle> .
[08:43] <pyr3> Set "View new folders using" to "list view"
[08:44] <dv310p3r> that's correct. Konqueror is a file browser, correct? I am using nautilus then. Thanks, I checked preferences and i couldn't find any option. Is Konqueror a better file browser?
[08:44] <Strangelv> dv310p3r: Not sure.  Konqueror is integrated into KDE though
[08:44] <xerostyle> My problem is that I get this when I try to do what the tutorial says.
[08:44] <xerostyle> xero@xero-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter

[08:45] <Gregord> Sending love from my phone
[08:45] <dxdt> dv310p3r: depends what you are looking for.  SOme say yes, some say no.  I think the general consensus is that Konqueror has more features, but is yuckier looking and harder to navigate while nautilus is cleaner but has less features.
[08:45] <scarpia> c.esper.net
[08:45] <dorto> buddha, I recommend you check out K3B for burning audio/video cd/dvd's
[08:45] <dv310p3r> Ill take prettier for now until i know more. Thanks for the info.
[08:45] <Strangelv> dxdt: sounds like the Gnome versus KDE argument
[08:46] <pyr3> dv310p3r, What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[08:46] <tekhawk> anyone here know about cyptoloop and twofish
[08:46] <pyr3> What version of Nautilus.
[08:46] <dv310p3r> 7.04, the latest
[08:46] <Strangelv> One complained I've heard about KDE is that its developers never thought of a control option they didn't like.  Maybe that's why I lake KDE so much...
[08:46] <dxdt> Strangelv: Well, yeah.  I was just hoping to give the person a little bit of an idea.  I feel that that is the general consensus.
[08:47] <pyr3> dv310p3r, on the first tab in the preferences, the option is there to set the default view
[08:47] <dorto> isn't KDE 4 going to have Thunar like file manager along with Konqueror?
[08:47] <Strangelv> dxdt: noting your take on the consinsus for future reference; was just noting that it s-eemed tno tie in with the general difference in philosophy
[08:47] <dv310p3r> Oh my god, it was the first thing. I've been looking for hours, THANKS A MILLION. lol
[08:48] <dxdt> dorto: umm  I know they are doing stuffs with Dolphin as the filemanager, but I'm honestly not sure what is happening.  I do know from the screenshots I've seen it looks MUCH better and MUCH cleaner.
[08:48] <Red-Sox> Could someone please teach me how to install ATI drivers without any GUI?
[08:48] <^futuro> DreadKnight, mwavem doesn't work
[08:49] <pyr3> dv310p3r, The alternative would have been the muck around in GConf to find if there was a setting there.  (GConf is similar to Windows Registry)
[08:49] <dxdt> Red-Sox: well, for the ones from ATI themselves, it would by like sudo aptitude install xorg-driver-fglrx and then run the command sudo aticonfig --initial
[08:50] <Red-Sox> dxdt: Okay thank you very much
[08:50] <DreadKnight> ^futuro have you checked private? ,,,
[08:51] <^futuro> DreadKnight, I have found solution
[08:52] <pyr3> dxdt, Dolphin is supposed to be less "feature rich" than konquerer.
[08:52] <kkathman> pyr3:  however it will be the default file manager
[08:52] <kkathman> not the default browser
[08:53] <juanca> gg
[08:53] <guris> Has anyone installed usb modem on linux.  I have zyxel 630-c ADSL usb modem and I cannot find any guides on google.
[08:53] <pyr3> The coolest thing about KDE4 to me is that it's based on QT4 which is supposedly able to run natively on Windows, X11, and OS X
[08:53] <Yasumoto> does anyone if I can use "alt" in an xterm?
[08:53] <pyr3> Cross-platform Amarok, etc is an interesting prospect.
[08:54] <ectospasm> does anyone know how I can keep the gpilotd daemon from respawning when I kill it?
[08:54] <pyr3> guris, I'm not sure, but I think there is a usb modem module in the kernel.
[08:54] <pyr3> ectospasm, There is probably an init script for it.
[08:54] <Strangelv> Yasumoto: what alt do you mean?
[08:55] <guris> ok.
[08:55] <ubuntu_headache> i cant connect to my wireless  network...my wireless is usb dlink g122..unable to connect only can detect network..can anyone help?
[08:55] <Yasumoto> Strangelv: the alt key
[08:55] <pyr3> run something like `/etc/init.d/gpilotd stop`
[08:55] <ectospasm> pyr3:  no, there's not. I already checked for that
[08:55] <Yasumoto> Strangelv: (i'm using irssi, and can't figure out how to switch channels)
[08:55] <Strangelv> Yasumoto: possibly only for specific uses, unless you're inside a running program
[08:55] <tekhawk> please privite chat me if you know how to mount twofish reiserfs under ubuntu thank you
[08:55] <Strangelv> Yasumoto: sorry I'm not going to be able to help
[08:56] <pyr3> ectospasm, Something is respawning it.  Maybe an init script that is cryptically named... or GNOME ?
[08:56] <Yasumoto> I could just remap it to something else, but i'd think it should work
[08:56] <Yasumoto> Strangelv: haha, no problem
[08:56] <Yasumoto> Strangelv: thanks :)
[08:56] <^futuro> One Kiss to all girls
[08:56] <^futuro> :P
[08:56] <pyr3> Yasumoto, ESC+NUM changes windows in irssi...  ESC+1 for Window 1
[08:56] <DreadKnight> :))
[08:57] <pyr3> `/window list` will give you a list of the windows
[08:57] <ianmcorvidae> Alt also works, for those not enamored of Esc
[08:57] <Yasumoto> pyr3: dang, sweet. thanks :)
[08:58] <xerostyle> assballs
[08:58] <Yasumoto> ianmcorvidae: yeah, apparently there's a bug which prevents meta key combinations from working in an xterm
[08:58] <zeta> hey guys, how do you prevent a drive from showing up on start up e.g. i don't want my windows partition showing in the my computer window?
[08:58] <pyr3> ianmcorvidae, Sometimes alt doesn't work.  When I used to run irssi on OSX, telling iTerm to send ALT to irssi never worked, but telling it to send ESC worked.
[08:58] <ectospasm> pyr3:  it was the applet for that program... closing the applet allowed me to kill the gpilotd process
[08:58] <pyr3> ectospasm, Ah.
[08:59] <ianmcorvidae> pyr3: Huh, ok. Well, Alt *sometimes* works, then, for those not enamored of Esc :)
[08:59] <pyr3> ianmcorvidae, It was wierd because emacs accepted ALT, but irssi only wanted ESC.  Go figure.
[08:59] <Yasumoto> ianmcorvidae & pyr3: yeah, I usually use alt. thanks a bunch guys :)
[08:59] <gogol> hola
[08:59] <ianmcorvidae> huh, odd.
[08:59] <ianmcorvidae> Well, learn something new every day :)

[09:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gracias - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:01] <pyr3> But in any case the way I understand it, META is more like a replacement for ESC... so most things that accept META can also use ESC.  Though I'm not too well versed in that stuff.
[09:01] <sauvin> Besides, I DO NOT understand sms-versions of Romance langugaes.
[09:01] <Red-Sox> how do I enable the restricted repository with just the terminal?
[09:01] <underwatercow> How do you empty the trash on a different device? It asks when you unmount if you want to, but is there a manual way short of deleting the files out of the trash folder?
[09:01] <pyr3> Red-Sox, edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:01] <dv310p3r> I want to try and setup an application to always run under root. Azureus, when I run it it opens then close, but if i run it through the terminal as root, it'll run fine until I close the terminal. Any way I can do that?
[09:02] <Red-Sox> pyr3: right, but can you tell me what to put in?
[09:02] <pyr3> Red-Sox, The line should already be in it.  You'll just need to uncomment it.
[09:02] <DreadKnight> dv310p3r: you should check out deluge bittorrent client man. It's Great!

[10:20] (ermac0/#ubuntu) ashu, that should be, and besides it should install a shortcut, on your ubuntu menu
[10:20] (wripubdie/#ubuntu) then what could be causing the crashes?
[10:20] (heguru/#ubuntu) Irreducibilis: ok it seems like maya 8.5 only provides RPM files

[10:21] <damian> Whether the user can dynamically type a new accelerator when positioned over an active menuitem...whats this mean
[10:22] <wripubdie> shouldn't htere be an error log somewhere?
[10:22] <heguru> Irreducibilis: ok, you can install these files by going to terminal
[10:22] <heguru> Irreducibilis: then cd /media/cdrom/[path to rpm files] 
[10:22] <wripubdie> you guys are my only hope please
[10:23] <heguru> Irreducibilis: then type alien [rpm file name]  to install them
[10:23] <wripubdie> i don't want to go back to windows
[10:23] <heguru> Irreducibilis: i guess you should still read the readme.html file
[10:23] <GuHHH> windows rules
[10:23] <Irreducibilis> thank you
[10:23] <ermac0> wripubdie, you need to sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ,
[10:23] <heguru> wripubdie: did you press ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[10:23] <GuHHH> wripubdie: memory test?
[10:23] <ermac0> wripubdie, /var/logs/
[10:23] <opium> gconftool-2 --type=string --set /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/switch_to_workspace_4 '<Alt>F4'
[10:24] <opium> thats the commnd
[10:24] <opium> incase anyone wanted to know
[10:24] <Irreducibilis> The installation pdf is detailing how
[10:24] <ermac0> scripting to change work spaces hah
[10:24] <hmhowie> wripubdie: the first place to look for errors would be /var/log/messages
[10:24] <wripubdie> sudo first?
[10:24] <ermac0> yes
[10:24] <GuHHH> /var/log/syslog
[10:25] <david__> sudo tail -f /var/log/messages
[10:25] <ermac0> wripubdie, you can even grep it , if you want specifics
[10:25] <david__> sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog
[10:25] <bullgard4> What is the reason for the hierarchical relationship of a keyboard controller below pcspkr in the /sys/devices/platform/pcspkr/bus/drivers/i8042 hierarchy?
[10:25] <hmhowie> wripubdie: what do you mean be "it keeps crashing" btw? do you mean, the computer freezes?
[10:25] <wripubdie> what is grep? (did i already ask that)
[10:26] <david__> grep REGEX /var/log/syslog
[10:26] <cast> wripubdie: `whatis grep`
[10:26] <ermac0> text file search tool
[10:26] <wripubdie> here is what happens
[10:26] <ermac0> ok
[10:26] <wripubdie> i logon with failsafe gnome
[10:27] <david__> basicall looks through a file for text strings that match a search expression (aka REGEX)
[10:27] <Shawn> hi there, i got error resizing partition: device /dev/sda1 is mounted. You must "unmount" it first.
[10:27] <tony1> is there a text edit tool in linux just like editplus under MS Win?
[10:27] <Shawn> I am installing from a hd-media (C:)
[10:27] <wripubdie> i instantly get an error message that says: unable to determine tha address of the message bus
[10:27] <hmhowie> tony1: i've never heard of editplus. what do you want to do?
[10:27] <david__> tony1, vim is a text editor, gvim is more graphical
[10:27] <ermac0> Tonyl, gedit
[10:27] <hmhowie> wripubdie: that's unusual
[10:28] <david__> but there are others
[10:28] <shaitaan> linux-india
[10:28] <GuHHH> wripubdie: do a memory test
[10:28] <tony1> i want to edit c code, i am a beginner
[10:28] <wripubdie> then arter thirty seconds or so i lose my mouse
[10:28] <ermac0> tonyl , choose what makes it easy
[10:28] <Tarkus> anyone know what would be the best way to record a video of the screen? (screencast). something with a smooth end result..
[10:28] <david__> there is also emacs, gmacs, pico....
[10:29] <dappermuis> Tarcus, xvidcap
[10:29] <ermac0> david__, sighs :) yea
[10:29] <wripubdie> after a minute after that the screen flickers a couple of times
[10:29] <dappermuis> Tarkus, xvidcap
[10:29] <hmhowie> tony1: then i'd recommend gedit. have a look at the settings of gedit. you can switch on stuff like line numbers and bracket counting
[10:29] <wripubdie>  then i am bumped back to the logon screen
[10:29] <tony1> i am using gedit
[10:29] <Tarkus> dappermuis, ok thanks. ill check it out
[10:30] <wripubdie> if it ever does remain stable for a while, like right now
[10:30] <sauvin> Beginner C coder? You might like kate better.
[10:30] <dappermuis> Tarkus, np
[10:30] <david__> tony1, if you want to program and go hard core you will have to, some day, (gulp) learn vi any way :-)
[10:30] <ermac0> wripubdie, so your logged in it right now
[10:30] <hmhowie> wripubdie: my first suggestion would be that the video driver isn't working properly. what driver are you using atm? (have a look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf under Section "Devices")
[10:31] <tony1> i am finding a editor which can auto add codes. for instance ,if i type "if" the editor add"if(){}"just like what editplus2 does under Windows
[10:31] <wripubdie> i have now idea why, but if i started opening programs such as firefox it would crash again
[10:31] <ermac0> tony1, macros
[10:32] <wripubdie> did you get all that?
[10:32] <GuHHH> wripubdie: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep "Device"
[10:32] <tony1> you mean gedit's macros?
[10:32] <GuHHH> wripubdie: sudo cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep "Device"
[10:32] <ermac0> tony1, i don't think its capable of macros
[10:32] <hmhowie> tony1: sounds liek you want something between an editor and a development environment. have a look at eclipse, but it may be overkill
[10:32] <cast> vim; w|gcc :)
[10:32] <wripubdie> yes logged in
[10:32] <tony1> thanks
[10:32] <ermac0> like msvspro
[10:33] <heguru> tony1: for C IDE use anjuta
[10:33] <wripubdie> but this is as long as it has ever lasted
[10:33] <heguru> tony1: install it using symantec
[10:33] <GuHHH> wripubdie: sudo cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep Driver  -> see what driver u are using
[10:33] <wripubdie> in two days worth of reboots
[10:33] <hmhowie> wripubdie: GuHHH means: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[10:33] <tony1> IDE is too big for me
[10:34] <ermac0> wripubdie, digging down to the problem i think its your xorg.conf file which has , or is missing a switch from it, so it can properly run the graphics card, does it freeze , on screensaver mode, ? and do you have an ATI card
[10:34] <wripubdie> what would that grep device command do?
[10:34] <heguru> tony1: you need something like MS Visual Studio.. and IDE is too big for you! strange
[10:34] <cast> wripubdie: man grep.
[10:34] <Ramy> while configuring Evolution, i can't find SMTP in the server type ?
[10:34] <GuHHH> filter the results
[10:34] <sauvin> Kate is indeed scriptable.
[10:35] <Some_ux> i need to make /dev/hiddev0 work. how do i do that ?
[10:35] <sauvin> I've seen a text editor under linux that has what tony1 describes, but I can't for the life of me remember which one!
[10:35] <hmhowie> tony1: i've never used anjuta, but i've heard good things about it :) it may be what you need.
[10:35] <GuHHH> does someone wants some coffee?
[10:35] <tony1> ok i'll try
[10:35] <sauvin> MmmMmmMmmm.... kawfeee....
[10:36] <wripubdie> i don't have a screensaver just that default screen power off after a few minutes which works ok
[10:36] <sauvin> tony1, do have a look at kate. What it might not have in macros and suchlike, you may find it DOES have in interface.
[10:36] <wripubdie> my video card is 3dfx voodoo 5500
[10:36] <hmhowie> wripubdie: so, don't keep us all in suspense here. what driver are you using?
[10:36] <tony1> thanks ,i also tried kate
[10:36] <stuporglue> I need to normalize the volume on about 100 ogg files. Anyone recomendations on how to go about that?
[10:36] <david__> there were old VMS ones like DECset aand LSE it was like them, and i can't remember either
[10:36] <cast> bah. vim or emacs. vim has that smart completion [omni-completion]  and normal completion.
[10:36] <GuHHH> hmhowie: he doesnt want to be helped
[10:37] <GuHHH> maybe hes trolling ;P
[10:37] <ermac0> GuHHH, i want coffee
[10:37] <david__> I don't understand the question stuporglue ?
[10:37] <wripubdie> the udi is pci_121a_9
[10:37] <sauvin> You didn't like kate?
[10:37] <hmhowie> GuHHH: i'm beginning to think you're right...
[10:37] <wripubdie> is that the driver?
[10:38] <ermac0> hits the spot
[10:38] <david__> its later than that in Aus, want some red wine?
[10:38] <GuHHH> wripubdie: sudo cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep Driver  -> see what driver u are using
[10:38] <david__> good aussie red wine:-)
[10:38] <GuHHH> or just quit wasting our time
[10:38] <wripubdie> oh, ok
[10:38] <cast> GuHHH: dude. really. why are you using sudo and cat?
[10:39] <GuHHH> cast: bla bla bla... why the drama?
[10:39] <hmhowie> wripubdie: doesn't sound like it. why don't you navigate to /etc/X11 and open the file xorg.conf by clicking on it. skim down to the line: Section "Devices" and tell us what is entered there for a Driver
[10:39] <marazi> hi
[10:39] <cast> GuHHH: cat i can vaguely understand, but sudo? why oh why?
[10:39] <tony1> sorry guys, i'm not quite good at irq chatting
[10:39] <david__> lucky we are on irc then :-)
[10:39] <GuHHH> lol, just unattended
[10:40] <Shinichi> re
[10:40] <dadalin> hi
[10:40] <hmhowie> cast: i can sort of understand the reflex action to use sudo. there are lots of text files on the system which can't be read by a normal user. at some stage you get a feeling for which ones they are, but it can take a while
[10:40] <Some_ux> I am unable to read from /dev/hiddev0 i have no idea why ?
[10:40] <ermac0> or maybe you use sudo apt-get, alot,
[10:41] <dadalin> when setup is 85%,it stops
[10:41] <hmhowie> Some_ux: what the dickens is a hiddev?
[10:41] <GuHHH> lol, yeah... the point is its im used to it... that i simple forget sometimes we dont need it ;P
[10:41] <dadalin> i wonder why
[10:41] <dadalin> why
[10:41] <GuHHH> *simply
[10:41] <hmhowie> dadalin: i think at that stage it's trying to download additional language files. are you installing in a language other than english?
[12:41] (MrPink/#ubuntu) giany911  Thanks for your help, am logging off to test if it worked... then I'll check out the other link, if it didn't thanks for help so far, be back in a sec!
[12:42] (dekc/#ubuntu) can you help me to hear music / sounds
[12:42] <wripubdie> hmhowie?
[12:43] <hmhowie> wripubdie: yep?
[12:43] <wripubdie> hmhowie, its says the driver is 'tdfx' and the BusID is 'PCI:1:0:0'
[12:44] <dekc> pls tell me why i can't hear nothing
[12:44] <jez> Why is it that I have devices mounted on my system that aren't in /etc/fstab?  I heard that fstab contained info on all mounted devices on the system.
[12:44] <hmhowie> wripubdie: this it the driver in Section "Device"?
[12:44] <hmhowie> jez: /etc/mtab :)
[12:45] <hmhowie> wripubdie: sorry, typo. i mean 'tdfx' is the driver in Section "Device"?
[12:45] <wripubdie> hmhowie, yes, under identifier "3Dfx Interactive, Inc. Voodoo 4 / Voodoo 5
[12:45] <Madnez> crap
[12:45] <Madnez> i screwed up something bad...
[12:46] <hmhowie> wripubdie: okay. change the Driver to "vesa" and save the file by pressing ctrl-o. then quit the editor by pressing ctrl-x
[12:46] <Madnez> compiled SDL and other stuff and now my desktop effects doesnt work
[12:46] <jez> hmhowie: so why do pages like this one http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html
[12:46] <Madnez> even wesnoth doesnt work
[12:46] <jez> continue to spout out bullshit like "fstab is a configuration file that contains information of all the partitions and storage devices in your computer."?
[12:46] <Madnez> anyone has any ideas what i've done? :D
[12:46] <wripubdie> Driver: "tdfx", BusID: "PCI:1:0:0"
[12:47] <wripubdie> hmhowie, i don't have a voodoo 5500 PCI, I have a voodoo 5500 AGP
[12:47] <hmhowie> jez: /etc/fstab on a linux system contains a list of partitions and storage devices which are preconfigured and can be easily mounted. any device marked "auto" in /etc/fstab is automatically mounted when the system is booted. once it is mounted, it will appear as an entry in /etc/mtab
[12:48] <jez> hmhowie: still, there's an awful lot of BS around because it's totally and utterly wrong to say that it contains info on all mounted devices
[12:48] <jez> my Ubuntu is automatically mounting several partitions every time it boots that are NOT in fstab
[12:49] <hmhowie> wripubdie: don't worry about that. just change the driver to "vesa". that should make your desktop stable but will not enable 3d acceleration. we'll work on getting 3d acceleration going once gnome is stable
[12:49] <trpr> and? its nice that it does that. imagine the pain if you had to predefine every usb thumbdrive you wanted to use
[12:49] <hmhowie> jez. some file systems are mounted in addition to those in /etc/fstab, if i remember correctly
[12:49] <jez> yeah, so they shouldn't be saying that it contains info on all partitions
[12:50] <jez> why the hell do they?
[12:50] <wripubdie> hmhowie, file saved and exited
[12:50] <wripubdie> hmhowie, now what?
[12:50] <hmhowie> hmhowie: as soon as the hal daemon is started, additional mass storage devices will be mounted automatically
[12:50] <hmhowie> jez: slip of the tongue? :)
[12:50] <Kaso> I need to somehow install ubuntu on a PC which has no CD/DVD drive, i have a 1gb usb mem stick (which my motherboard wont let me boot off) and a USB floppy disk drive, which i can boot off, is it possible to have a ubuntu image onto the mem stick, then use the floppy disk to boot over to it?
[12:50] <hmhowie> wripubdie: restart gnome by logging out and logging back in again
[12:50] <Toma-> jez: dont get angry. if youre upset with ubuntu and dont want to rationally get help, ask for a refund.
[12:51] <wripubdie> ok
[12:51] <Madnez> anyone knows what i screwed up with when my desktop effects no longer work?
[12:51] <magnetron> !install | Kaso
[12:51] <ubotu> Kaso: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[12:51] <hmhowie> wripubdie: if you can't log back in again, change the driver back to what it was
[12:51] <wripubdie> hmhowie, ok
[12:51] <jez> the trouble is im trying to setup ntfs-3g support, and the tutorial says to edit the entry in fstab for the drive, but there is no entry
[12:51] <jez> not sure whether to try and add one
[12:51] <apollosen> pl???????????????????/
[12:51] <magnetron> Madnez: how could we know, without you telling what's wrong with it

[12:52] <ubotu> apollosen: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[12:52] <Madnez> i did mention it
[12:52] <apollosen> i can't ubuntu-pl
[12:52] <hmhowie> jez: is it a partition on your harddrive? check in /proc/partitions to find out which one it is and then try to mount it directly using the mount command first, before adding an entry to /etc/fstab
[12:52] <SBCU> GeForce 6100 nForce 405 can work on Ubuntu?
[12:52] <apollosen> i am zablokowany
[12:52] <magnetron> Madnez: oh, you posted several messages
[12:53] <Madnez> ok as i said earlier, desktop effects are working weirdly. cube view dead but it still pulls like normal.  workspace swap reduces to 1.  everytime i keep adding >1 and resetting desktop effects, it resets back to 1
[12:53] <jez> hmhowie: : not mtab?
[12:53] <jez> it's already mounted
[12:53] <jez> automatically
[12:53] <Madnez> just realized something was wrong with it all when i tried to run wesnoth.  had SDL video error
[12:54] <Madnez> no available video device
[12:54] <hmhowie> jez: if it's been automatically mounted without it being in /etc/mtab, it must be something hal is finding. try unmounting it first, before mounting it again using the ntfs-3g driver ;)
[12:54] <Madnez> had probs like that with another program.  Thought might be SDL, so i dl'd an SDL set (latest) and compiled it
[12:54] <jez> hmhowie: it is in mtab, it's not in fstab
[12:55] <magnetron> Madnez: try setting /apps/compiz/general/screen0/options/hsize to 4 with gconf-editor
[12:55] <Madnez> anyway think something i've done previously screwed the graphic settings since i'm getting 1/2 the effects
[12:55] <jez> hmhowie: if feisty has naive 3g support why does it still mount ntfs partitions using just ntfs by default?
[12:56] <MrPink> giany911 ?
[12:56] <Madnez> nope
[12:57] <Madnez> i think its due to this, error display: Could not initialize SDL: No available video device
[12:57] <Madnez> somehow i screwed up my SDL
[12:57] <Madnez> should i try reinstalling it?
[12:57] <Madnez> or maybe my graphic card software?
[12:58] <MrPink> I followed the instructions of the first link (at least I think I did it right), logged out... and now whenever boot it gives me this big Error saying it couldn't load the Xserver... then I went into recovery mode, and it said I could resotre the xorg  file... so I tried that, now I can get back to the login screen without the error, so Xserver starts... but Now it wont recognise my Username...
[12:58] <MrPink> .../ Password.... ARRRRGH... what should I do? :-(
[12:58] <wripubdie> hmwowie, THAT WAS IT! you did it!
[12:59] <hmhowie> jez: because feisty doesn't have ntfs-3g support :) adding an entry to /etc/mtab won't do any good. as far as i know, the file is generated by the kernel directly as a source of information
[12:59] <sobersabre> hi. I am on amd64. is it possible to compile a "pure" 64-bit kernel for AMD64, which WON'T allow 32-bit binaries to execute, even if they're statically linked ?
[12:59] <wripubdie> hmwowie, that fixed it!
[12:59] <hmhowie> wripubdie: :) good :)
[12:59] <mac_> what utility to reformat a external hard disk?
[12:59] <wripubdie> hmwowie, i owe you a lot
[12:59] <jez> hmhowie: it doesnt?  i can use add/remove programs to get some 'ntfs config tool' that allows write support
[12:59] <hmhowie> wripubdie: that means there's something wrong with this driver. have you tried searching www.ubuntuforums.org for this driver name to check is anybody else has had problems?
[01:00] <wripubdie> hmwowie, the question is what brand of ale?
[01:00] <mac_> what utility can format a external hard disk?
[01:00] <wripubdie> hmwowie, no really, why such a horrible driver in the install?
[01:01] <hmhowie> wripubdie: me? oh, i'm tee-total :) tdfx is the name of your driver. if you haven't already, register at www.ubuntuforums.org and search for tdfx
[01:01] <magnetron> sobersabre: the standard kernel IS 64-bit pure. however, the CPU is still backwards compatible.
[01:01] <sobersabre> magnetron: so, by no patches to arch dependent parts, kernel CANNOT block 32-bit instructions. Am I right ?
[01:01] <hmhowie> wripubdie: i've never heard of the driver myself. is it an unusual graphics card? if it isn't someone else must have had hte problem you're having
[01:02] <MrPink> can anyone help me... My ubuntu is screwed... :(
[01:02] <ryanakca> '/usr/bin/latex foo.tex' creates foo.pdf. according to '/usr/bin/latex --help', '/usr/bin/latex -output-format=dvi foo.tex' should create foo.dvi, but it still creates foo.pdf. Any idea why?
[01:02] <sobersabre> MrPink: I have a solution: unscrew it.
[01:02] <wripubdie> hmwowie, but wasn't that what i just replaced? you mean a newer version of the file?
[01:02] <MrPink> sobersabre if you tell me what "screwdriver" to use ;)
[01:02] <mac_> is there a utility that can format a usb hard disk for ubuntu?
[01:03] <sobersabre> MrPink: there's an old saying: "if you want to ask, ask! don't ask to ask."
[01:03] <sobersabre> mac_: the same utility that can format a regular disk.
[01:03] <wripubdie> hmwowie, the card is a 3dfx voodoo5500
[01:03] <mac_> I am blur
[01:03] <jez> heh
[01:03] <hmhowie> wripubdie: my guess is, you can use the tdfx driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you add an option somewhere in the file. that should also enable 3d acceleration. however, i don't know anything about the options, so i thought it would be best for you if the desktop just worked for now, then you can take your time researching the options for the tdfx driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:04] <mac_> sobersabre: Please enlighten
[01:04] <MrPink> sobersabre: In Germany there is a saying "Who can read has a definite advantage" :D   I already explained my problem :D
[01:04] <apollosen> jez pl??
[01:04] <hmhowie> wripubdie: which version of ubuntu are you using?
[01:04] <sobersabre> mkfs.<name of the filesystem>
[01:04] <jez> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o rw /dev/hdb1 /media/blib/
[01:05] <jez> ^ worked to mount it with write support, now it's mounted as type fuseblk
[01:05] <Madnez> guess no solution eh?
[01:05] <jez> now Ubuntu just needs a unified clipboard and numerous minor bugfixes!
[01:05] <sobersabre> MrPink: I could read, if I had to search channel logs BEFORE I joined it.
[01:05] <hmhowie> MrPink: so where is the shoe pressing?
[01:05] <Madnez> maybe i need to reinstall ubuntu
[01:05] <sobersabre> MrPink: this is why a link to pastebin is usefull.
[01:05] <MrPink> ok one sec I'll explain ^^
[01:05] <mac_> how to reformat a external usb hard disk in ubuntu 7.04?
[01:06] <Madnez> what SDL is good for my comp?
[01:06] <sobersabre> mac_: do you want to change partitions layout ?
[01:06] <sobersabre> Madnez: it is good for programs that need it.
[01:06] <mac_> I just want to reformat the external USB hard disk to NTFS
[01:06] <sobersabre> mac_: can you 1st answer my question ?
[01:06] <wripubdie> hmhowie, i'll resaerch it now that i have the ability to do so
[01:06] <MrPink> I edited xorg.conifg trying to configure my extra mousebuttons... then logged out to see if it worked, and then I couldn't boot anymore, it would always say that Xserver couldn't start (do to the config file) then I started the recovery mode and opened the config file again... and in there it had a command "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xerver-xorg" and I did that... now the xserver can...
[01:06] <MrPink> ...launch again... but it doesn't recognize my Username & Password anymore... so I can't login to ubuntu :(
[01:06] <hmhowie> mac_: i
[01:07] <hmhowie> mac_: i"m not sure linux can create ntfs partitions
[01:07] <tarelerulz> I am runing an amb 64 and I can't find libdvdcss2
[01:07] <mac_> sobersabre: no need.
[01:07] <ryanakca> '/usr/bin/latex foo.tex' creates foo.pdf. according to '/usr/bin/latex --help', '/usr/bin/latex -output-format=dvi foo.tex' should create foo.dvi, but it still creates foo.pdf. Any idea why?
[01:07] <hmhowie> MrPink: have you got a z or a y or a character with an umlaut or a scharfes s in your username or password?
[01:07] <Madnez> yeah for sure SDL is needed but its not working no more
[01:08] <wripubdie> hmwowie, you were a real life saver , all night no one else had a clue what to do, thanks again for getting me out of a mess
[01:08] <GNine> yay for hot-babe
[01:08] <GNine> heh
[01:08] <aricz> Hola, anyone know a util that can record what I do in virtual console?
[01:08] <mac_> oh I know, can use gparted
[01:08] <MrPink> hmhowie: No I dont
[01:08] <sobersabre> mac_: then, make sure you have ntfs related packages installed, and run: mkfs -t ntfs /dev/<the name of the block device>
[01:08] <hmhowie> wripubdie: don't mention it. i imagine most people here knew what to do, it's just explaining it in a way that someone new to linux would understand that's difficult
[01:09] <MarloK> ma io uso debian... lo stesso?
[01:09] <sobersabre> MrPink: I don't understand how you've come to a conclusion that X doesn't "recognize your user".
[01:09] <mac_> sobersabre: thanks, Gparted can be live CD or using sudo -i
[01:09] <hmhowie> MrPink: my first guess would be that X is starting an english keyboard and you have a german one attached to your system. if it isn't that, i'll have to think for a bit
[01:10] <sobersabre> MarloK:si prega uso #debian-it or speak english in here.
[01:10] <GNine> :-P
[01:10] <MrPink> aha that may be
[01:10] <wripubdie> hmwowie, yeah  i've got a long way to go with linux and just started but won't forget your help
[01:10] <MrPink> hmhowie I will try it again, maybe one of the "special chats" are different on the keyboard... thanks, Ill (hopefully be back)
[01:10] <sobersabre> MrPink: please upload your xorg.conf to pastebin.
[01:10] <hmhowie> MrPink: have a look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf at the Section "InputDevice"-> Option "XkbLayout"
[01:10] <XiXaQ> !id

[01:11] <sobersabre> MarloK:pardon, si prega uso #ubuntu-it or speak english in here.
[01:11] <GNine> i only can put out some pointers .. i say , if i could .. so can you.  (some people might call that tough love)  muahaha
[01:12] <ruben> Hi everyone, I'm in my last year of school, and i'm looking for Idea's to do my endproject, I tought it would be original to do something with linux. (I have an idea: Some sort of webbased app with wich you could view your linux server cpu usage, memory usage, running services..., disconnect certain clients, ban management, and much more. My question to yo is, is this a doable project, and is it even possible?)
[01:12] <sobersabre> ruben: it is an alrady done project.
[01:12] <magnetron> ruben: it's doable and has already been done
[01:12] <sobersabre> you could take a ready project, and fix bugs and enhance it.
[01:12] <IrishDave> hey, does anyone know of a good GUI tool for performing a regular backup in Linux?
[01:13] <GNine> its also nothing to do with support
[01:13] <magnetron> !backup | IrishDave
[01:13] <ubotu> IrishDave: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[01:13] <GNine> :-P
[01:13] <IrishDave> cheers magnetron
[01:13] <sobersabre> IrishDave: there are many. run synaptic and search for backup keyword.
[01:13] <hmhowie> ruben: yes it's possible. you'd have to look into getting php (i'd assume you'd be doing the server based side with php) to interract with /proc, but it's possible
[01:13] <ruben> Damn, to bad it has allready been done, I could indeed join an existing project, and help out, that is allso allowed... But in the end i would need to have something to show for it.
[01:14] <IrishDave> any that you might suggest? i'll have a look but main reason I was asking was to get suggestion based on experience :)
[01:14] <mac_> I always see when installing ubuntu, the hard disk detect as hda or sda ? what does that mean
[01:14] <sobersabre> ruben: if you join a semi broken project, and then make it 100% pure of bugs - it is something you can show.
[01:14] <GNine> great.. my acpi apparently liked the flavor of the acpi=off option in grub.. (thinking out loud)
[01:15] <sobersabre> and it is respectable: I found that writing something from scratch is a waste of time and I joined this project: <>"
[01:15] <hmhowie> ruben: don't worry about it having been done before. if you haven't got much experience in using a scripting language in apache, it's worth working on, just to learn how things like that work
[01:15] <sobersabre> hmhowie: from personal point of view there's no difference if you learn the scripting lang. for writing from scratch or for fixing existing code.
[01:16] <Madnez> ...
[01:16] <Madnez> great
[01:16] <Madnez> SDL is dead
[01:16] <sobersabre> but from global human effor perspective, it has difference.
[01:16] <XxXx> ))
[01:16] <Madnez> no clue whats jamming it
[01:16] <XxXx> Maslick hi
[01:16] <sobersabre> ruben: how much time do you have to complete the project ?
[01:16] <ruben> hmhowie: Indeed i'll go and show my proposal at school, and i'll see what they have to say. If they do not allow it i can allways join an existing project, do any of you know a broken, existing project.
[01:16] <nicolas> hello
[01:16] <penguincentral> hi nicolas
[01:17] <XxXx> Maslick hello!
[01:17] <sobersabre> ruben: ANY project has problems.
[01:17] <nicolas> anybody knows how to configure autoaway in xchat ?
[01:17] <ruben> we have time from now on till may, june i guess
[01:17] <hmhowie> sobersabre: good point :)
[01:17] <sobersabre> ANY live project is a work in progress.
[01:17] <ruben> they did not define a timespan yet
[01:17] <penguincentral> nicolas: do you use normal xchat or gnome xchat?
[01:17] <sobersabre> ruben: ANY project has space for optimization/enhancement.
[01:17] <hmhowie> ruben: you could try working on suspend to ram and suspend to disk in the kernel :-D
[01:18] <nicolas> penguincentral: gnome-xchat
[01:18] <sobersabre> ruben: if you don't know any estimation of timespan... it's a problem.
[01:18] <ruben> indeed, my main area in school is networking, so it would be nice if i found something in that area,
[01:18] <sobersabre> hmhowie: yes, or to enhance the scheduler.
[01:19] <ruben> The schoolyear just started, this tuesday we will be getting all the information on the project.
[01:19] <sobersabre> ruben: I guess writing a usefull plugin gor pidgin can be a good practice, and usefull work.
[01:19] <ruben> i like that idea sobersambre
[01:19] <MrPink> Ha that was it, it was the keyboard!
[01:19] <hmhowie> MrPink: and did it fold?
[01:19] <MrPink> thanks!
[01:20] <hmhowie> MrPink: all my side :)
[01:20] <MrPink> now I just have to edit the config again to set it back to german :)
[01:20] <penguincentral> nicolas: i use xchat-gnome, I really don't know
[01:20] <MrPink> I wonder what caused the config to screw up like that... wouldn|t have thought, that trzing to configure a mouse could be so difficult -.-
[01:20] <hmhowie> MrPink: just edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change XkbLayout "us" to Xkblayout "de"
[01:20] <aricz> Hi, anyone know a util that'll RECORD in virtual console (CTRL+ALT+Fxx) .. ?
[01:20] <MrPink> hmhowie will do >)
[01:21] <penguincentral> damn, nicolas left
[01:21] <hmhowie> aricz: what do you want to record?
[01:21] <aricz> a roguelike I'm playing
[01:21] <aricz> a game, textgame.. :)
[01:21] <sobersabre> ruben: there's a big project "nagios" it also needs new good plugins.
[01:22] <aricz> wonder if there's a util that just hooks up and stays in the background recording everything I do in virtual console
[01:22] <penguincentral> nicolas: looking at bug #88422, it suggests that auto-away is a plugin
[01:22] <ruben> Ps: I got a working partner to do the project with, so i don't know if a pidgin plugin is really that much of a project? Excuse me if i'm wrong. I need to learn everything from scratch, my linux knowledge is limited to installing, compiling packages and toying around.
[01:22] <hmhowie> aricz: you could tee the program to a file, if that's what zyou want to do
[01:22] <ruben> I'll check nagios out
[01:22] <sobersabre> nagios is network management/monitoring web application.
[01:22] <kauer> aricz: "man script"
[01:22] <sobersabre> I have to run
[01:22] <sobersabre> bye all.
[01:22] <mnemo> I just installed ubuntu gutsy test version and updated it in synaptic... for some reason I cannot play sound files in any application... in xmms I can see that the equalizer is processing the song and seconds are ticking away but I can't hear anything... i've checked so that its not muted and if I reboot into Vista everything works (so it's not somehting silly like I forgot to turn on the speakers etc) .... any ideas on how I can fix this?
[01:22] <nicolas> penguincentral: yep it is, but i can't find anywhere to set  away nickname, or timeout...
[01:23] <Resager> Hi All!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[01:23] <aricz> kauer : I want it to record every keystroke I do.. "realtime" if you know what I mean
[01:23] <Enquest> I'm looking for a tutorial to set up mail server with mysql acces on my server...
[01:23] <ruben> I just took a look at nagios it looks nice. :)
[01:23] <aricz> kauer: but checking script out
[01:23] <Enquest> anybody now one?
[01:23] <MrPink> ah all back to German layout now :)
[01:23] <penguincentral> nicolas: beats me...
[01:23] <hmhowie> aricz: tricky...
[01:23] <Resager> ))
[01:23] <Enquest> know one?
[01:23] <nicolas> penguincentral: thanks anyway.  I will have to go look at the sources
[01:23] <MrPink> THe question is do I give setting up multiple mouse buttons another chance or not... ?
[01:23] <Karti> Hi all, I would like to set up a DNS server on my LAMP server so that I can access MySql using a host name. Does someone have any pointers? Thanks
[01:24] <penguincentral> nicolas: good luck
[01:24] <XxXxX> hehe
[01:24] <XxXxX> Maslick hello!
[01:24] <nicolas> penguincentral: thanks....  ciao
[01:24] <penguincentral> nicolas, bye
[01:24] <Maslick>  
[01:24] <magnetron> Karti: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/index.html
[01:25] <ruben> wow nagios has a very nice network map plugin
[01:25] <panosru> how can i import emails from Outlook Express to Evolution?
[01:25] <magnetron> panosru: the question is more " how can i export mails from evolution?"
[01:26] <killaz> hi guys
[01:26] <XxXxX> Maslick hei where are you?
[01:26] <Resager> gg
[01:26] <hmhowie> panosru: as far as i know, you first have to export the mails from outlook express in a format other programs are allowed to read
[01:26] <killaz> I'm looking for a disc catalogue program. Where I can catalogue my data disc, dvd's and mp3's
[01:26] <killaz> anyone of you are using such a program?
[01:27] <panosru> magnetron, no the question is how can i import mails to evolution from outlook express
[01:27] <GNine> u cant
[01:27] <marckie> hello pipz
[01:27] <magnetron> panosru: first step: export them from evolution
[01:27] <magnetron> panosru: first step: export them from outlook
[01:28] <GNine> :-/
[01:28] <panosru> i did that already ;)
[01:28] <magnetron> panosru: in what format?
[01:28] <hmhowie> panosru: in what format?
[01:28] <panosru> xm.. there is some folders with some files without extension :/
[01:28] <rgl> how to take a screenshot with the mouse pointer?
[01:29] <rgl> how to take a screenshot with the mouse pointer included in the image?
[01:29] <hmhowie> panosru: oh.
[01:29] <stefg> panosru: http://www.howtoforge.com/importing_outlook_express_into_thunderbird_evolution is the first hit on google :-)
[01:29] <stefg> bother searching ?
[01:29] <GNine> no
[01:30] <GNine> its more fun here
[01:30] <hmhowie> stefg: you jfgied? no fair! :-D
[01:30] <MrPink> ok for some reason my scrolling wheel has the function that I want my "thumb button" to have... any ideas why?
[01:30] <ruben> Question: Can you run shell commands via php? So let's say my web based app, can it have the ability to start or stop certain services?
[01:30] <panosru> stefg, trust me before i ask i searched everywhere!! :D
[01:30] <MrPink> so when I scroll down, it goes back a page instead of actually scrolling down
[01:30] <stefg> panosru: so how come it took me exactly 10 seconds to come up with that link?
[01:30] <GNine> because you only got 5 buttons.. and you want 7
[01:30] <hmhowie> ruben: php must have an interface to the exec system call.
[01:31] <LjL> ruben: http://it.php.net/system and ##php
[01:31] <panosru> stefg, no you don't understand, i read this link about 100 times, this and other 1000 ! nothing worked!
[01:31] <ruben> ok thank you very much :)
[01:31] <MrPink> GNine: so I change the Buttons from 5 to 7 in the xorg.conf ?
[01:32] <GNine> at least you have just started to look at the issue the right way
[01:32] <MrPink> what do you mean ?
[01:32] <magnetron> panosru: make sure you exported in outlook csv or tab separated values
[01:33] <panosru> magnetron, ok ;) i will boot in to vista and export them again! :D (thanks ;) )
[01:33] <GNine> my last cookie to you, scroll up and scroll down are 2 functions, just like right click and left click are two functions.. therefore ..
[01:34] <hmhowie> ruben: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.exec.php
[01:34] <GNine> !mouse
[01:34] <ubotu> Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[01:34] <ruben> very nice so I would be able to view currently connected clients and have the ability to disconnect them
[01:35] <MrPink> yeah I already tried to do that tutorial but somehow it didn't work and I am not sure what I am doing wrong...
[01:35] <hmhowie> ruben: connected to what?
[01:35] <GNine> bingo. troubleshoot thyself
[01:35] <ruben> to certain services
[01:35] <ruben> for example
[01:35] <ruben> ftp
[01:36] <magnetron> !enter | ruben
[01:36] <ubotu> ruben: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:36] <MrPink> I guess I'll just try it again then ^^
[01:37] <hmhowie> ruben: there are different ways of doing that. your ftp software will probably keep a list of downloads and uploads in a file in /var/log
[01:39] <hmhowie> ruben: you can't actually be logged in to ftp. you are either downloading/uploading something, or you aren't (as far as i know)
[01:39] <ruben> you are right, bad example of mine :p
[01:40] <ruben> you would be able to kill the session, you have 2 different ports ftp, and ftp-data your commands go via ftp and the data via ftp-data. But the server can allways kill the clients session i guess
[01:40] <LadyNikon> hahaha
[01:40] <ruben> otherwise i still could implement ban management.
[01:41] <finalbeta> hmhowie: that doesn't sound right. You can be just logged in. ftp has a control connection used to control the data connections which upload or download.
[01:41] <daniel> morning
[01:42] <hmhowie> hmhowie: if you want a list of people logged in to the computer, try "last" and then parsing it to display the users who are still logged in. ( last | grep "still logged in" | awk '{ print $1 }' )
[01:42] <daniel> I installed a fresh Ubuntu 6.06 and there's simply no package for the firebird sql-server
[01:42] <penguincentral> daniel: try feisty and see if it is there
[01:42] <daniel> I'm really wondering what's wrong here -- there definitely has to be that package, I've seen it mentioned in a number of tutorials
[01:42] <daniel> penguincentral: hmm...
[01:42] <bullgard4> /usr/bin/softbeep prints in a Gnome terminal "Spawning subshell" if I issue the command softbeep. How can I get rid of this message?
[01:43] <hmhowie> finalbeta: really? i thought with ftp that every request started with checking if the user is allowed to do that or not...
[01:43] <stefg> !info firebird dapper
[01:43] <ubotu> Package firebird does not exist in dapper
[01:43] <Valroth> hello :)
[01:43] <MrPink> Muhahahaha
[01:43] <jrib> bullgard4: check for a switch or redirect output to /dev/null
[01:43] <sheepluvrinbris> gid'd'd'd'd'ay
[01:43] <kauer> aricz: script retains a record of everything that goes to the terminal; it won't pick up keystrokes that have no effect on the screen (so it won't record passwords to login and sudo, for example).
[01:43] <finalbeta> hmhowie: yes, I must have missed something in the conversation.
[01:43] <Daverocks> stefg: they changed the name away from firebird a while ago :P
[01:44] <MrPink> A small step for Linux users, but a big step for a newb like me :D
[01:44] <sheepluvrinbris> ultra noob*
[01:44] <Valroth> is linux a game?
[01:44] <MrPink> Mousebuttons are functional... woohoo! :)
[01:44] <bullgard4> jrib: Bad advise. I want to get a beep.
[01:44] <jrib> bullgard4: I don't see how that's bad advice
[01:44] <MrPink> yeah ultranewb.... whatever... but its workin' ;)
[01:44] <sheepluvrinbris> try load beep.exe
[01:44] <daniel> stefg: Hm... this sucks. It means I either stop using the TLS version or install it by source. hmpf. I thought with ubuntu everything was going to run more smoothly :)
[01:44] <hmhowie> finalbeta: however, my vsftpd.log does contain things like "OK LOGIN: Client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx", so login is obviously supported. however there doesn't seem to be a logout
[01:44] <Valroth> what do you do in linux?
[01:45] <NiQ_> Hi there....
[01:45] <bullgard4> jrib: Because your advise will not get me a beep sound.
[01:45] <stefg> !info firebird2 dapper
[01:45] <ubotu> Package firebird2 does not exist in dapper
[01:45] <jrib> bullgard4: let me install softbeep and try it
[01:45] <sheepluvrinbris> I think it does in wondpws
[01:45] <sheepluvrinbris> windows
[01:45] <daniel> !info firebird2 feisty
[01:45] <hmhowie> Valroth: linux is the operating system 75% of the world's supercomputers run on :)
[01:45] <ruben> Valroth: linux is an opensource operating system.
[01:45] <Valroth> wow awesome
[01:45] <Valroth> where can I get it
[01:45] <Valroth> ?
[01:45] <NiQ_> Does anybody know how to change the Opacity of Metacity? Background windows keep getting semi-transparent titlebars... i don't want that :(
[01:45] <ruben> Valroth: Check www.ubuntu.com
[01:45] <ubotu> Package firebird2 does not exist in feisty
[01:45] <stefg> daniel: firebird2-common ..... run 'apt-cahce search firebird2
[01:45] <kauer> bullgard4: Depending on how softbeep works, you may still get a beep. Try the advice; it may work.
[01:46] <hmhowie> Valroth: it is extremely fast, faster than any other unix-like operating system.
[01:46] <Valroth> ok but my internet explorer keeps crashing
[01:46] <sheepluvrinbris> I think you type msconfig under run
[01:46] <stefg> daniel: run 'apt-cache search firebird2'
[01:46] <Valroth> I cant really look at websites
[01:46] <Valroth> I think its my cpu
[01:46] <ruben> Valroth: Ubuntu is one distro, you can try and check out other distros at www.distrowatch.com
[01:46] <magnetron> Valroth: you can get linux at www.ubuntu.com
[01:46] <daniel> stefg: I already apt-cache search'ed firebird, nothing there.
[01:46] <hmhowie> Valroth: try using firefox
[01:46] <Valroth> yes but I told you I cant use the internet
[01:47] <Valroth> whats firefox?
[01:47] <Valroth> is that a game?
[01:47] <daniel> Firefox is a browser.
[01:47] <sheepluvrinbris> yeh i think so
[01:47] <NiQ_> a web browser
[01:47] <sheepluvrinbris> oh
[01:47] <Eagleray> Valroth: note that linux is not ubuntu - ubuntu is only one of many, many different types of linux
[01:47] <magnetron> Valroth: i experience a lot of speedup when switching to Ubuntu
[01:47] <hmhowie> Valroth: you said that internet explorer crashes, so i assume you're on windows and using internet explorer as a web browser
[01:47] <Valroth> what type of linux is the best?
[01:47] <Valroth> yes I use windows
[01:47] <Valroth> they let me see outside :)
[01:47] <Eagleray> Valroth: that depends what you wish to use it for
[01:47] <ruben> Valroth: It's a matter of taste, I'm really hooked to ubuntu :p
[01:47] <kauer> Valroth smells a little troll-like to me..... ?
[01:47] <stefg> daniel: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=200837&highlight=firebird there must be some package
[01:47] <magnetron> our linux is the best, Valroth ;)
[01:48] <Eagleray> GNine: I know that word, but I used 'type' as Valroth was unlikely to know what 'distro' meant
[01:48] <NiQ_> anybody ideas on the titlebar issue (where to change the opacity) ?
[01:48] <GNine> 10-4
[01:48] <hmhowie> Valroth: if you're having difficulties with ie, try downloading and using firefox (probably best to download it at a friend's house, if you can't get onto the internet using ie)
[01:48] <magnetron> !repeat > NiQ_
[01:48] <Valroth> someone got a link to firefox?
[01:48] <Valroth> or are they not on the internet?
[01:48] <sheepluvrinbris> url is link i think
[01:48] <mooper> hi, does anyone know what the vmware repository is? I have seen a vmware.com one. The ubuntu commercial repository seems broken.
[01:48] <daniel> stefg: Yes, that's exactly what I'm wondering.. there simply is none. Something must be broken or so. But the only thing I did to my system was commenting out the cd-rom line in souces.list
[01:48] <Enselic> Valroth: google firefox
[01:48] <ruben> Hmm
[01:48] <Enselic> Valroth: www.getfirefox.com
[01:48] <GNine> okey dockey...
[01:49] <ruben> it's like talking to a wall :p
[01:49] <Valroth> ok thanks
[01:49] <mooper> hi, does anyone know what the vmware repository is? I have seen a vmware.com one. The ubuntu commercial repository seems broken.
[01:49] <Eagleray> Valroth: http://mozilla.com/products/firefox/
[01:49] <Valroth> error 404: page can not be displayed
[01:49] <GNine> jeez
[01:49] <Valroth> are you guys playing with me or what?
[01:49] <ruben> mooper just download source and compile, it was easy
[01:49] <stefg> daniel: did you apt-get update  after ? You#ll need new indices
[01:49] <NiQ_> magnetron, i dont know what you're trying to tell me, but if you're telling me that i must no repeat my question assuming that nobody noticed it you should think abour your behavoir seriously.
[01:49] <sheepluvrinbris> try msn search - ms search gets better results
[01:49] <ruben> i got windows server 2008 running smoothly on vmware on ubuntu :)
[01:49] <GNine> Valroth, has a slow process handler
[01:49] <jrib> bullgard4: edit /usr/bin/softbeep
[01:49] <magnetron> !repeat > NiQ_
[01:49] <mooper> ruben  I have been trying that but its not going so smooth
[01:49] <daniel> stefg: Yup. (Sorry, I didn't mention that. I used aptitude and did u, then U and g g)
[01:49] <lijian> !xmame      http://paste.ubuntu.org.cn/3326

[01:50] <Valroth> I'm not very technical
[01:50] <NiQ_>  /ignore magnetron
[01:50] <GNine> me neither
[01:50] <Eagleray> Valroth: what was the 404 error for?
[01:50] <magnetron> NiQ_: please read the private message from NiQ_
[01:50] <magnetron> NiQ_: please read the private message from * ubotu
[01:50] <Eagleray> Valroth: go to the link I pasted for you
[01:50] <Valroth> for the website
[01:50] <Valroth> www.getfirefox.com
[01:50] <warbisshop> hmm
[01:50] <hmhowie> 404 page not found
[01:50] <Eagleray> Valroth: I just checked it, the link is fine
[01:50] <hmhowie> try http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/
[01:50] <ruben> mooper: I tought it was as simple as configure make make install :)
[01:50] <warbisshop> that reminds me i got to try that 2
[01:50] <Eagleray> Valroth: (for the mozilla.com one)
[01:50] <Valroth> what the hell
[01:50] <sheepluvrinbris> mine works too
[01:51] <magnetron> works for me
[01:51] <ruben> mooper be sure to use sudo for make install
[01:51] <hmhowie> Valroth: maybe something's slowing down your internet. have you got a bittorrent client running at the moment?
[01:51] <Valroth> it must be my internet explorer playing up again
[01:51] <sheepluvrinbris> its a bit slow - I mite install internet accellerator
[01:51] <Valroth> only thing I have running is mirc
[01:51] <NiQ_> magnetron, seen the query. guess asking twice when things get quick here is not the worst thing, right? and i DID search the forums and google.
[01:51] <Valroth> and some porn movies but thats not online
[01:51] <bullgard4> jrib, kauer: "root@MD97600:~# softbeep; Spawning subshell." but no sound. "root@MD97600:~# softbeep 2>/dev/null; Spawning subshell." The command does not produce a sound and does not finish except I finish it using ^C.
[01:51] <jrib> bullgard4: yes, see my last suggestion
[01:51] <sheepluvrinbris> yummmmy!
[01:52] <bullgard4> jrib: What should I edit in this file?
[01:52] <ruben> Valroth: Looks to me you screwed up your pc really bad
[01:52] <Valroth> I had a technician come to check out my system last week
[01:52] <jrib> bullgard4: comment the line that echos "Spawning subshell"
[01:52] <Valroth> he told me to reformat
[01:52] <sheepluvrinbris> why did he say that
[01:52] <ruben> Valroth: Maybe someone can transfer you firefox via irc?
[01:52] <sheepluvrinbris> or Mirc?
[01:53] <sheepluvrinbris> i have a copy but its version 1
[01:53] <Valroth> I need to reformat because I have a virus I think
[01:53] <Valroth> the technician couldnt remove it
[01:53] <ruben> Valroth: and yes formatting would be your best option + Pr0n is bad for you. gives you virusses :p
[01:53] <hmhowie> Valroth: microsoft windows can get viruses and trojans and things like that.
[01:53] <Valroth> and my internet explorer doesnt work right anymore
[01:53] <jrib> Valroth: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[01:53] <sheepluvrinbris> you need that
[01:53] <daniel> ruben: Real sex gives him more dangerous viruses, though. :P
[01:53] <hmhowie> ruben: i think you'll find Pr0n stops you getting viruses :)
[01:53] <Eagleray> Valroth: can you download http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en-US/threat_analytics/hijackthis.php
[01:54] <magnetron> !ohmy | ruben, daniel
[01:54] <ubotu> ruben, daniel: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:54] <hmhowie> but we're getting very off-topic here
[01:54] <Eagleray> Valroth: run it, choose 'scan and save a logfile' and pastebin the result
[01:54] <sheepluvrinbris> hell yeh we are
[01:54] <ruben> daniel , hmhowie, LOL :p
[01:54] <sheepluvrinbris> l;ets get back to ubuntu

[01:54] <Valroth> thats way too technical for me eagleray
[01:54] <Valroth> nice name by the way
[01:54] <sheepluvrinbris> I have a problem with my fstab
[01:54] <jrib> sheepluvrinbris: try to keep what you say on a single line, or else the channel becomes too busy
[01:54] <GNine> sex
[01:54] <magnetron> ruben: ubotu is a bot
[01:54] <DexterF> whats the preferred app to watch dvb-t in ubuntu?
[01:54] <sheepluvrinbris> sorry
[01:54] <sheepluvrinbris> man
[01:55] <mooper> tft = too f8king technical :-)
[01:55] <Valroth> I'll just stay in this channel and try to learn a few things
[01:55] <ruben> magnetro: i know :)
[01:55] <Eagleray> Valroth: you don't need to worry about the technical side. Just click the download link, run the file that downloads, and click the 'scan & save a logfile button'

[01:55] <livingdaylight> anyone can help me with adding subtitles (.srt) to a movie(.avi)download?
[01:55] <Eagleray> Valroth: once you have done that, ask here how to pastebin it
[01:55] <Valroth> are you sure thats not a hack?
[01:55] <Valroth> I've been hacked before
[01:55] <Valroth> :S
[01:55] <Eagleray> Valroth: It's a general system hijack scanner
[01:55] <Valroth> hijack?
[01:55] <ruben> Valroth: It's clean
[01:55] <Valroth> that doesnt sound good
[01:56] <daniel> stefg: Do you agree that something's strange here?
[01:56] <Eagleray> Valroth: it produces a logfile that will help us work out what is wrong with your system
[01:56] <ruben> Valroth: it checks if you have been hijacked
[01:56] <DexterF> what, "dvb-utils"? that's it?
[01:56] <Valroth> alright I'll trust you
[01:56] <Eagleray> Can someone please vouch for HijackThis to Valroth - he's getting suspicious
[01:56] <LjL> why don't you move the discussion to ##windows, though?
[01:56] <stefg> daniel: yes, but i don't have enough info to have a certain suspicion

[01:57] <daniel> stefg: There honestly isn't much info to it... I downloaded the 6.06 CD, put it into that dell server, installed it and didn't find a firebird package. Being a firebird-server is the main purpose of that box. Anyways, thanks for your help.
[01:57] <livingdaylight> anyone can help me with adding subtitles (.srt) to a movie(.avi)download?

[01:57] <Eagleray> Valroth: can you head over to the ##windows channel?
[01:57] <GNine> and how come one word without any context whatsoever got me kicked..?

[01:58] <LjL> GNine: because you were continuing on a thread that had been already asked to be stopped

[02:00] <GNine> you got more patience than me
[02:00] <LadyNikon> unfortunately?
[02:00] <ruben> What do you mean with behaving like a troll? :)
[02:00] <baldie> oh, it seems that gedit does the trick when saving
[02:00] <LjL> LadyNikon: unfortunately for eagleray, who's wasted time typing stuff he couldn't see
[02:00] <LadyNikon> ah heh
[02:01] <daniel> stefg: bingo! Thanks
[02:01] <LjL> ruben: his caps lock key being hacked perhaps :)
[02:01] <Eagleray> LjL: oops didn't see that, so he has
[02:01] <ruben> LjL: Oh :)
[02:01] <daniel> stefg: I thought I tried that before, but I think I only temporarily enabled the security section of universe, not the 'regular'
[02:01] <LadyNikon> ok work time.. then to work on why my ubuntu laptop is acting weird
[02:01] <LadyNikon> bbs!
[02:02] <livingdaylight> I have a foreign movie in folder with .srt (translation) but when i play movie i don't get subtitles... how do i add .srt? anyone?
[02:03] <stefg> daniel: No need to be overly paranoid. All the later Ubuntu versions have universe enabled by default, and i never heard of problems (except that there are a lot of broken packages) by using universe

[02:04] <pirx> has anyone compiled gnome-color-chooser 0.22 under ubuntu?
[02:04] <livingdaylight> void^, :s  can you break down what i have to do... it is not picking up automatically
[02:05] <Downix> Hmm, is there a ethod for going from fawn to gibson?
[02:05] <void^> livingdaylight: filenames should be identical, except for the extension.
[02:06] <jrib> Downix: gutsy is still being developed likely to be broken before it is released, but you can ask in #ubuntu+1 if you still want to
[02:06] <uptownben> I am trying to figure out why ubuntu wont recognize CF card when I plu them into the CF slot of my thinkpad x24, I get this message after pluging in: [ 7405.972000]  ata3.00: qc timeout (cmd 0x91)
[02:06] <Downix> jrib:  wasn't going to upgrade yet, just crossed my mind that I was unaware on if there was an incorporated migration system or not
[02:06] <LjL> jrib: i think he's looking for a guitar
[02:06] <pirx> re gutsy, fedora is similar. the closer to a new version, the more is broken
[02:07] <gilster> quick question again about opening ports on router: for ssh/scp i only need to do this for connections coming from outside the router correct?

[02:07] <jrib> Downix: that's how it has worked in the past.  update-manager will ask you if you want to upgrade when it is time
[02:07] <uptownben> What is a "qc timeout" ?
[02:07] <Downix> ok
[02:08] <GNine> yay
[02:08] <void^> gilster: correct

[02:09] <jrib> bullgard4: did you have sound before you commented the line?
[02:10] <bullgard4> jrib: No.
[02:10] <gilster> void^: if i want to scp to two separate machines on the network from the outside, i was told here ealier, that i can open port 22 to one machine and then ssh into the other. OR alterantely to change on machine;s sshserver config to something other than port 22 , is this correct>?
[02:10] <jrib> bullgard4: then it's unrelated
[02:10] <bullgard4> jrib: yes.
[02:10] <Spee_Der> Anyone here using dual video card ? Or even better, using multiple dual video cards ??
[02:10] <jrib> bullgard4: did softbeep ever work?
[02:10] <bullgard4> jrib: no.
[02:11] <hmhowie> gilster: as long as you can get in from the outside, that's pretty much right
[02:11] <jrib> bullgard4: k, ask that question then to the channel, I don't know anything about softbeep
[02:11] <void^> gilster: yes
[02:11] <livingdaylight> void^, so for eg viridiana.avi and viridiana.eng.srt is not identical?
[02:11] <bullgard4> jrib: I will dare to ask it a mailing list.
[02:11] <florent_> network.protocol-handler.app.irc > /usr/bin/xchat
[02:11] <florent_> oups

[02:11] <gilster> hahowie:thanks
[02:11] <gilster> void^:thanks
[02:12] <void^> livingdaylight: no, but you can use '-sub filename' to load any subtitle file
[02:12] <jrib> what do you type to ban with chanserv.py?
[02:12] <livingdaylight> void^, if i rename srt as viridiana.srt then how will i be able to distinguis from other srt's?

[02:13] <keroro> hihi
[02:13] <sylverfox> hi all
[02:13] <sylverfox> what shall I use to unrar a file
[02:13] <sylverfox> the File roller con't make it
[02:13] <IdleOne> !rar
[02:13] <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
[02:13] <Downix> ok, switching WM's
[02:13] <void^> livingdaylight: use -sub if you have many different subs for the same video
[02:13] <livingdaylight> void^, I opened VLC and Open File and then i can browse to file twice. once avi and then srt.. then vlc syncs them... working... great... but would be nice automatic
[02:13] <gilster> hahowie: how do i change ssh port 22 default?
[02:13] <kauer> bullgard4: Do you have any sound at all - can you eg play music files, movies, do you hear any sound?
[02:13] <lander> hello. I'm a college-student (final year) and i'm supposed to do a project, we can choose what we want. So i was thinking of a ubuntu-project. To build some sort of software which hasn't been really developed yet, but people need it. So i was thinking, are their currently any projects need developing? Consinder the fact, this is going to be my first project and and my linux knowledge is very limited at the time. Any ideas, are welcome but the
[02:13] <lander> y should be not TOO big so i can actually finish the project. thank you
[02:13] <hmhowie> gilster: /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[02:13] <magnetron> sylverfox: file roller can do it, if you install the rar package with synaptic
[02:13] <kauer> gilster: "man ssh" and "man sshd"
[02:14] <sylverfox> magnetron: what is the package's anme
[02:14] <sylverfox> name
[02:14] <livingdaylight> void^, use sub? rename variana.eng.srt as variana.eng.sub?
[02:14] <magnetron> sylverfox: rar
[02:14] <sylverfox> ok
[02:14] <sylverfox> thanks
[02:14] <sylverfox> bye all
[02:14] <void^> livingdaylight: i've been talking about mplayer all along, so -sub refers to a mplayer option.
[02:14] <gilster> hahowie: thank you
[02:14] <gilster> kauer: thanks
[02:15] <bullgard4> kauer: Yes, I can play music files from a CD. I have also programmed my Irssi to play a sound when I am highlighted. But that functions unreliably: Some time in a long session it stops sounding.
[02:15] <void^> livingdaylight: there's no standard for subtitle file naming. if you want a decent way to include several different subs with one video file, use a decent container format like matroska (mkv)
[02:15] <livingdaylight> void^, ok, sorry, i was trying vlc... i will look in mplayer
[02:15] <Eagleray> lander: are there any small utilities that _you_ think could be improved?
[02:16] <Eagleray> lander: you will enjoy it far more if you are writing something you care about
[02:16] <Eagleray> you could also try asking the debian guys - they can always use extra devs
[02:16] <lander> well
[02:16] <kauer> bullgard4: Please tell us what you actually want. What do you want softbeep to do for you?
[02:16] <lander> i follow a networking course
[02:17] <magnetron> lander: in launchpad, there is a list of "blue prints" of to-do material
[02:17] <lander> so i would like to make somingthing to do with networking utilities, servers... the works
[02:17] <kbrooks> what does "hdc: drive not ready for command" mean?

[02:17] <zhanx> i have an issue with some videos encoded with a divx codec and some wmv's files the the colors are messed up in mplayer

[02:18] <lander> writing it down
[02:18] <hocmin> I'm having problems with Eclipse using the ubuntu distribution of java so I'd like to manually install sun's latest version.  I've downloaded the file but I'm not sure how to make it the "default" for my system.  Can anyone tell me or point me to a guide?
[02:18] <lander> hi
[02:18] <kbrooks> need an answer
[02:18] <magnetron> pong kbrooks
[02:18] <Eagleray> magnetron: good point - msn protocol needs one hell of an update
[02:18] <zhanx> penguincentral,  if i use the -vo x11 they work fine but dont resize
[02:18] <LjL> kbrooks: i think it sometimes-to-often means "backup your drive fast"
[02:18] <DB42> is there some offical / semi-offical repository where i can find pidgin version 2.2.0 ?
[02:18] <Eagleray> lander: I second the pidgin suggestion
[02:18] <keroro> Hello all ! i wanna to know "ogg" good for listening song ???
[02:18] <penguincentral> zhanx, what video player are you using
[02:18] <kbrooks> ljl: hdc, read carefully, is a cd rom drive
[02:18] <zhanx> mplayer
[02:19] <DB42> also i'm using beryl with 7.04 and sometimes windows get black, i'm on nvidia, what can i do ?
[02:19] <LjL> kbrooks: ah well then. does it also say anything about DMA perhaps?
[02:19] <lander> i'll look into the pidgin chat program
[02:19] <french-kiss> hello
[02:19] <magnetron> keroro: yes, ogg vorbis format is better than mp3
[02:19] <khamael> how do I make the gnome x-chat program to show the userlist?
[02:19] <penguincentral> hmph, have you used other media players to play those same files?
[02:19] <french-kiss> can somebody help me with my network printer samsung clp300n
[02:19] <penguincentral> magnetron: agreed
[02:19] <french-kiss> i connect it on my fritzbox
[02:19] <french-kiss> but i cannot print
[02:19] <hmhowie> hocmin: have a look what the current java is. /usr/bin/java is usually a symbolic link to /etc/alternatives/java
[02:19] <keroro> magnetron:oh ic Thank you
[02:19] <DB42> is there some offical / semi-offical repository where i can find pidgin version 2.2.0 ? (currently i have gaim version 2.6 beta)
[02:19] <Downix> neat, switched to AmiWM....
[02:19] <kbrooks> ljl: no, and lately inserting a CD in doesnt work, i need to do hw and a file is on the cd that i need to change...
[02:20] <Downix> man I miss my Amiga
[02:20] <zhanx> yes they work to play the files but no sound, my brother likes to use weird audio codecs with his video
[02:20] <magnetron> DB42: getdeb
[02:20] <DB42> getdeb is offical?
[02:20] <kbrooks> DB42, no
[02:20] <magnetron> DB42: no, not official
[02:20] <hmhowie> hocmin: and /etc/alternatives/java will point to your actually java executable. you just have to change this link
[02:20] <DB42> there is no offical way ?
[02:20] <LjL> far from it, and packages often broken
[02:20] <tasmaniac> khamael,  use the non gnome one
[02:20] <keroro> 88 all
[02:20] <magnetron> DB42: wait for the gutsy update...
[02:20] <DB42> how do i know what kind of safety mesures does getdeb do..
[02:20] <penguincentral> zhanx: what codecs does he use?
[02:20] <DB42> magentron: that's the only way ?
[02:20] <zhanx> i feel like this new screen is going to burn out my eyes...
[02:20] <kbrooks> DB42, none, it just uses checkinstall
[02:21] <zhanx> umm justa sec
[02:21] <LjL> kbrooks: could it be that it's set up as slave but there is no master, or things like that?
[02:21] <magnetron> DB42: or compile it yourself
[02:21] <MatBoy> Does someone know how to set the scan page larger in XSANE ? I can only do this for Fax and Copy there, not for normal scanning
[02:21] <LjL> well, if it's hdc it's not a slave i suppose
[02:21] <kbrooks> ljl: THIS IS A LAPTOP.
[02:21] <DB42> ok, thanks
[02:21] <hocmin> hmhowie: just a simple resetting of a symbolic link with ln?
[02:21] <khamael> tasmaniac: that simple, eh? I usually run the regular, but the gnome one was installed here
[02:21] <kbrooks> ljl: and the cd drive can be taken out while the OS is running

[02:21] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[02:21] <zhanx> penguincentral, the last was straight wav. then an ac3?
[02:21] <hmhowie> hocmin: that's the first thing i'd try. maybe eclipse has some settings as well.
[02:22] <attunix> Yay!!! You can now get to the Ubuntu (Linux distro) Wikipedia page just by typing  Ubuntu in the Search box!!! :D
[02:22] <tasmaniac> khamael, yep it was that simple. (I thought geez this is pathetic until I tried the non-gnome one)
[02:22] <attunix> happy :)
[02:22] <hocmin> hmhowie: first thing you'd try?  So you're not sure?
[02:22] <kbrooks> attunix, why yay?
[02:22] <penguincentral> attunix: it's common with almost every topic out there
[02:22] <leoquant> compiz on channel?
[02:22] <zhanx> penguincentral, got it
[02:22] <zhanx> thanks
[02:22] <penguincentral> zhanx: have you installed the GStreamer packages
[02:23] <hmhowie> hocmin: nope. but it's the sort of thing i'd try before asking anybody else for help ;)
[02:23] <zhanx> that is what i jsut did
[02:23] <penguincentral> zhanx: wonderful.  did it ask you for the codecs?
[02:23] <attunix> kbrooks: because it used to be that you had to type "Ubuntu (Linux distribution)" or "Ubuntu" and then click on "Ubuntu (Linux Distribution)" to access the page.
[02:23] <kauer> bullgard4: Find a program that will play a wav file. "aplay" does this, and is probably on your system. Then find or create a small wav file that makes the sound you want. You will probably find lots of small sound installed; there are thousands to be had all over the Internet too. Then just use "aplay file.wav" whenever you want that sound. It doesn't have to be aplay specifically, or a wav file specifically, you get the idea....
[02:23] <hocmin> hmhowie: I've found a command called update-java-alternatives
[02:23] <hocmin> hmhowie: I'm think that might be helpful
[02:23] <hmhowie> hocmin: you can check where /usr/bin/java points to by entering 'java -version'
[02:24] <jrib> bullgard4: I got it to work here, want to join me in #ubuntu-classroom?
[02:24] <hmhowie> hocmin: i bet update-java-alternatives changes one symbolic link :)
[02:24] <scraliontis> hi,i have a question?
[02:25] <DreadKnight> done
[02:25] <Idle_One> scraliontis: ask
[02:25] <DreadKnight> you already asked :|
[02:26] <LjL> kbrooks, i think the most detailed report about this sort of thing is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/75295 .
[02:26] <scraliontis> i installed my new wifi adaptor. its a netgear wd111 v2, and it works fine when it just started up, but after a while it just stops working, and i need to reboot to get a connection again, even though when i run ifconfig and iwconfig it looks like its still connected, why would it do this?
[02:26] <anu> hi
[02:27] <bullgard4> kauer: aplay /usr/share/sounds/phone.wav generates a bell sound and prints in a Gnome terminal: "Wiedergabe Wave '/usr/share/sounds/phone.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Samplingrate: 44100 Hz, Stereo"
[02:27] <anu> i want a vcd player in ubantu
[02:27] <hmhowie> hocmin: update-java-alternatives is a wrapper for update-alternatives
[02:27] <LjL> anu, VCD is just mpeg files, i think just about anything will play them
[02:27] <pirx> vlc media player
[02:28] <anu> i cannot play vcd 2 this operating system
[02:28] <kauer> bullgard4: I don't know exactly why you want this sound. Just in case you are looking for a simple terminal bell though: By default, gnome terminal makes a beep under certain conditions (for example, backspacing at the start of the line). This can be disabled. In gnome terminal, click on Edit->Current profile->General and see if "Terminal bell" is checked. One simple way to get a bell is "/bin/echo -e '\a'"
[02:28] <Enselic> When I press F10 in gnome-terminal I get the "rightclick" menu. Does anyone know how to disable that? Note that this is not the "Edit -> Keyboard shortcuts"-F10
[02:29] <LjL> anu: try vlc as suggested, it explicitely mentions VCD support
[02:29] <scraliontis>  i installed my new wifi adaptor. its a netgear wd111 v2, and it works fine when it just started up, but after a while it just stops working, and i need to reboot to get a connection again, even though when i run ifconfig and iwconfig it looks like its still connected, why would it do this?
[02:29] <anu> ok
[02:29] <Downix> I play VCD's with VLC
[02:29] <Downix> and with mPlayer
[02:29] <Enselic> scraliontis: could be a driver issue
[02:29] <wastrel> Enselic: edit > keyboard shortcuts
[02:30] <anu> any site for downloading players?
[02:30] <Enselic> wastrel: as I said, it's not that F10
[02:30] <LjL> anu: ?!?

[02:30] <scraliontis> are there any other drivers for it, other than the standerd that are in the kernel
[02:30] <Enselic> wastrel: I can successfully disable the F10 which opens the File menu
[02:30] <LjL> anu: get them from the official Ubuntu repositories please
[02:30] <Eagleray> twenty: Hi, do you have a question?
[02:30] <Enselic> wastrel: this is the "rightclick" F10
[02:30] <twenty> is there someone that can help me with svn configuration?
[02:30] <Jeruvy> I just installed 7.04 fine was working ok, now I've hooked it up to my kvm and I'm only getting 800x600 resolution.  Is there any way I can get that back to 1280x1024?
[02:30] <Enselic> twenty: #svn
[02:30] <Eagleray> twenty: sure - what's up?
[02:30] <kauer> bullgard4: If you redirect stderr and stdout from aplay to /dev/null, you will still get the beep sound.

[02:32] <warbisshop> what does it mean when wine refuses to run a exe. that the exe in question is broken ?
[02:33] <LjL> kbrooks: well, how?
[02:33] <katkins> warbisshop: not necessarily. wine may be misconfigured, or simply unable to run the exe in question. it doesn't work with all windows apps
[02:33] <kbrooks> ljl: take out cd and put in again.

[02:38] <rediz_> katkins its not sata. got 80gig ide and 40 gig ide
[02:38] <LadyNikon> Balaams_Miracle: super key?

[02:40] <ashu> magnetron: thanks i am restarting now
[02:40] <katkins> rediz_ oh, ok. so can you boot windows?

[02:42] <scraliontis> what other drivers are there for the wd111 v2, other than the standerd drivers that are in the kernel.
[02:42] <jrib> scaldov: tried the deskbar applet?
[02:42] <katkins> hmm, i can only suggest try new batt first, then setup in bios and retry.... i have had some very strange behaviour when batt dead

[02:48] <sylverfox> hi
[02:48] <katkins> hi sylverfox
[02:48] <sylverfox> where should I go with a question connected to virtualbox?
[02:49] <chuxxsss> where do i find the driver drivers
[02:49] <sylverfox> ceau N3bunel
[02:49] <jrib> sylverfox: if it's about installing on ubuntu, here is fine.  But the virtualbox channel is #vbox
[02:49] <chuxxsss> please
[02:49] <chuxxsss> anyone
[02:49] <chuxxsss> ?
[02:49] <sylverfox> ok jrib thanks
[02:49] <katkins> chuxxsss - driver drivers? which driver?
[02:49] <bluefox83> chuxxsss, drivers for what?
[02:50] <valemon> I have a linksys wireless using a bradcom chipset
[02:51] <chuxxsss> already got printer driver, just got to know where they are on the system linux as i have a mp160 type printer on a network
[02:51] <chuxxsss> thanks
[02:51] <valemon> Will the windows drivers work with ndiswrapper with all the devices that use broadcom chipset?
[02:51] <scaldov> jrib, but these icons occupies a whole height of panel
[02:51] <scaldov> jrib, is there any possibility to set its size?
[02:52] <jrib> scaldov: not that I know of
[02:52] <scaldov> jrib, in order to show them in two or more rows on the panel
[02:52] <MeRodent> valemon, provided the driver is for the particular chipset yes.
[02:52] <katkins> valemon: they should do but you might need to experiment with different versions for best results
[02:53] <darrend__> hi, is it possible to configure the gnome desktop to bring up the application menu on right-click, rather than the desktop menu?
[02:53] <scaldov> jrib now I placed thin hidding panel in the bottom. and populated it with icons/
[02:53] <valemon> thanks for your help
[02:54] <scaldov> it's almost what I wanted
[02:54] <chuxxsss> please anyone where is the printer driver held on ubuntu
[02:54] <Jack_Sparrow> magnetron: DId ashu want to know how to get into Ubuntu without using login and password?
[02:54] <ShackJack> darrend__: As far as I'm aware, no - though XFCE (Xubuntu) has that feature...
[02:54] <scaldov> chuxxsss I think you can install CUPS
[02:54] <darrend__> ShackJack: yeah, I know.  I normally use xfce - that's why I want it :)
[02:55] <chuxxsss> Have cup all ready thanks
[02:55] <Jeruvy> boy the auto detect script actually doesn't 'auto-detect' anything.  So, now I've trashed my X :(
[02:55] <scaldov> chuxxsss and control it via http://localhost:631
[02:55] <ciaron> if i'm browsing a network share in nautilus, how do i log out of the user i connected as?
[02:55] <ShackJack> darrend__: I use the "main menu" plugin vs/ applications/system/etc... not quite as good but frees up a lot of space in the panel
[02:55] <chuxxsss> install driver for Canon MP160 but now using it over a network mate
[02:56] <ShackJack> Does anyone know the command to force a fsck on next reboot?... Looked all over but can't seem to find it?
[02:57] <scaldov> I have ndiswrapper kernel module installed. How can I setup my system so it could be run automatically instead of standard bcm43xx ?
[02:57] <katkins> Jeruvy: don't panic - when you reconfigure X, a backup of the xorg.conf file is made in /etc/X11 - just go there, remove the current xorg.conf and rename the backup back to xorg.conf
[02:58] <MeRodent> scaldov, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDriver%29
[02:58] <Jeruvy> katkins: ya I'm there thx :)  I made two backups
[02:58] <chuxxsss> scaldov: Nice but not what I am using
[02:59] <katkins> scaldov - you need to blacklist the bcm43xx module and set ndiswrapper to load at startup (/etc/modules, i think)
[03:00] <mnemo> how do I remove modules permanently from the kernel?
[03:00] <combinio> can someone help with DHCP ? i'm trying to connect MAC os x to ubuntu and it doesn't work :/
[03:01] <mnemo> combinio: i probably won't know the answer, but ask anyway
[03:01] <mnemo> what is the problem you are seeing?
[03:01] <Jeruvy> Wierdo...but X is working fine now.  Thanks for the pointers :)
[03:01] <katkins> mnemo - remove modules or prevent them from loading?
[03:01] <combinio> mnemo, on mac it is written that it is connected but network doesn't work
[03:01] <hmhowie> combinio: if you can't get dhcp working, you can use static ip addresses :)
[03:01] <combinio> i have etc0 on my ubuntu
[03:02] <mnemo> katkins: i mean completely remove them.. like unload and delete and everything
[03:02] <combinio> and want make macintosh online via my computer
[03:02] <scaldov> katkins thanks
[03:02] <combinio> hmhowie, i have static IP
[03:02] <mnemo> katkins: but preventing them from loading might be a good start if you know how to do that
[03:02] <hmhowie> combinio: you want to enable package forwarding so that a mac osx computer can go through your ubuntu computer into the internet?
[03:02] <ShackJack> combinio: I think your best option is to get a proper router ;)
[03:03] <combinio> hmhowie, yes
[03:03] <combinio> hmhowie, i want to make mac online so it can browse WWW, check mails etc.
[03:03] <hmhowie> combinio: can you ping the linux box from the osx box?
[03:03] <combinio> hmhowie, what? how to check this out?
[03:03] <mnemo> combinio: do you have two network cards in the ubuntu box?
[03:03] <kbrooks> ShackJack, actually
[03:03] <katkins> mnemo - i'm not sure that's possible without a kernel recompile. you can prevent them from loading by blacklisting them
[03:04] <kbrooks> ShackJack, a proper router is a real computer.
[03:04] <combinio> ShackJack, but i want to connect MAC OS X directly via my ubuntu
[03:04] <ShackJack> kbrooks: Heehee - yeah, I suppose...
[03:04] <mnemo> katkins: ok blacklisting will be good enough.. what file do I add the module to then?
[03:04] <combinio> i have installed firestarter...
[03:04] <hmhowie> combinio: start a terminal on the osx box and type: ping <ip address of the internet card on the ubuntu box the osx box is connected to>
[03:04] <combinio> mnemo, YES

[03:07] <xerxe> merodent, change power settings to what?
[03:07] <hmhowie> combinio: open a terminal on the linux box and type: ping <ip address of the internet card on the osx box the linux box is connected to>
[03:07] <bullgard4> kauer: I once tried to change the default terminal profile. But I could not make beep sound.

[03:09] <karel> karlo1: standard
[03:09] <karel> ShackJack: I can't find cleartype option there
[03:09] <combinio> hmhowie, i have two cards.. one - connected to modem, another connected to osx
[03:09] <combinio> hmhowie, ok
[03:09] <xerxe> i dont know, how to check if the screen saver is on?
[03:09] <bullgard4> kauer: Ubuntu main menu System > Preferences > Sounds > System beep: There is 'system bell' asserted.
[03:09] <katkins> mnemo: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist - just add the modules you want to blacklist in that file
[03:09] <karel> I have an option for it on iterm (mac) so was hoping on ubuntu too...
[03:10] <hmhowie> combinio: that means that the linux box has two ip addresses (one for each card).
[03:10] <ShackJack> karel: There is no cleartype option there, as I said - font settings are global (under prefs)... in terminal you can change only colors, fonts...
[03:10] <combinio> hmhowie, ok typed that
[03:10] <combinio> eth0 and eth1:avah
[03:10] <combinio> and also lo
[03:10] <MeRodent> combino, ifconfig will show ip addresses
[03:10] <karel> Any alternative terminals?
[03:10] <kauer> bullgard4: What about the other option s- like "visual bell"? Sorry, I don't know any mpore. Your system must just be different to everyone else's on the planet ;-)
[03:10] <xerxe> merodent, screensaver is set to "random"
[03:10] <mnemo> katkins: thank you
[03:10] <hmhowie> combinio: does your osx machine have two network cards as well?
[03:11] <combinio> hmhowie, is it:  inet addr:169.254.10.73
[03:11] <ShackJack> karel: What are you trying to do exactly... you don't like smooth fints only in the terminal?
[03:11] <combinio> no osx has only one
[03:11] <combinio> connected to my ubuntu
[03:11] <MeRodent> xerxe, is it set to activate when computer is idle?
[03:11] <bullgard4> kauer: If the focus is on a terminal and I issue '^G' this window will vibrate a short time but there will be no sound and no echo on the screen.
[03:11] <hmhowie> combinio: that could be correct. i don't know. what are the ip addresses on the ubuntu box?
[03:11] <karel> ShackJack: I generally like cleartype, but in terminal I have white text on black bg and then cleartyped text becomes fuzzy
[03:11] <combinio> hmhowie, ok, got that
[03:12] <xerxe> merodent, screensaver it is not activated when computer is idle
[03:12] <combinio> so i have to type ping <ip osx adres >
[03:12] <katkins> combinio: you need to set up internet connection sharing via a firewall on your ubuntu machine. install the 'firestarter' package, then configure it (System -> Administration -> Firestarter) to do internet connection sharing
[03:12] <MeRodent> xerxe, congratualtions. you've exhausted all my suggestions then. :)
[03:12] <ShackJack> karel: I have my terminal set to green type on bloack , and you can set fonts a little bigger... Any terminal program will follow the global font settings re "ClearType" ... methinks...
[03:12] <combinio> hmhowie, it is  64 bytes from 169.254.10.73: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.042 ms
[03:12] <combinio> so the ping command workds
[03:13] <combinio> katkins, i have firestarter already
[03:13] <kauer> bullgard4: Sorry, I can help you no further.
[03:13] <karel> ShackJack: ok thanks
[03:13] <Merlin--> Hi there
[03:13] <xerxe> merodent, thanks for your help. i thought it was about somethin i was overlooked. guess i was wrong. srtange situation , anyway.
[03:13] <ShackJack> combinio: FYI here's a little info on net sharing, too: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing
[03:13] <Merlin--> I got an issue with my network driver can you help
[03:13] <MeRodent> xerxe, time to hit google.
[03:14] <combinio> wait! found that option... DHCP on local area! :D
[03:14] <xerxe> merodent, u got that right
[03:14] <MeRodent> !ask | merlin
[03:14] <ubotu> merlin: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:14] <xerxe> godbte all!
[03:14] <combinio> but it is written that 'The device eth1 is not ready' :/
[03:14] <xerxe> godbye
[03:15] <GNine> he still mispelled the f***ing workd
[03:15] <Merlin--> MeRodent ubotu I got a ubuntu server with two RTL8139 chipset network cards
[03:15] <GNine> heh
[03:15] <kaptengu> can someone explain when and how the partitions are mounted in the boot process?
[03:15] <ShackJack> Does anyone recall the command to force a fsck (disk check & repair) on all volume on next reboot
[03:15] <Merlin--> lspci shows them both but i can only configure one in /etc/networking/interfaces
[03:15] <Ram0n> anyone can help-me?
[03:15] <katkins> combinio: i think eth1 will be your avahi daemon interface - no need to use DHCP as it's already set up automatically
[03:16] <Merlin--> 0000:06:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
[03:16] <Merlin--> 0000:06:01.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
[03:16] <magnetron> Merlin--: you may need to add eth1 to the kernel boot parameter list
[03:16] <ShackJack> !ask | Ram0n
[03:16] <ubotu> Ram0n: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:16] <combinio> katkins, but there is still no connection :/
[03:16] <AqD> hi all!
[03:16] <juan__> hi everyone
[03:16] <AqD> is there a "setup"-like console program for ubuntu?
[03:16] <ShackJack> AqD: Setup for what?
[03:16] <MeRodent> !wifi | Merlin--
[03:16] <ubotu> Merlin--: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:17] <AqD> ShackJack: basic system settings (like in fedora/rhel)
[03:17] <AqD> network, service, etc
[03:17] <MeRodent> Merlin--, if you have a specific question that you need help with shoot.
[03:17] <katkins> combinio: but ping works ok?.. it's looking like an ICS problem on the firewall
[03:17] <Merlin--> magnetron any good doc to check a tutorial or can u point it out for me in some words
[03:17] <The_Pedro> salve
[03:17] <ShackJack> AqD: Nothing global, just the usual linux commands and manual config edits...
[03:17] <LjL> AqD: there is debconf, but it's not quite the same thing i'm afraid - it just allows you to configure single packages
[03:17] <Ram0n> i need start ubuntu with the command insmod /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/usbserial.ko vendor=0x0eab product=0xc893 everytime. but i can"t doing. how do?
[03:18] <AqD> ah
[03:18] <magnetron> Merlin--: tldp.org is gret
[03:18] <fogobogo> Hi! what exactly is that pipe ( | ) thing good for?
[03:18] <tasmaniac> MeRodent, They aint wireless tho
[03:18] <juan__> yesterday while installing compiz, i accidentally eliminated the option that is is System>preferences that allows desktop 3d-efects, does anyone know the name of the package so iu can install it via synaptic?
[03:18] <fogobogo> besides less
[03:18] <MeRodent> tasmaniac, you're allways so picky.
[03:18] <hmhowie> combinio: you have to do the following: 1/ make sure the ip addresses on the internal osx-ubuntu network are configured okay. 2/ add a default gateway and dns addresses to the osx box. 3/ enable packet forwarding using iptables and /proc/sys/net/ipv4 on your linux box
[03:19] <kyle___> how can i turn off sound and save power in the kernel?
[03:19] <magnetron> fogobogo: to make the output of one command become the input of the next command
[03:19] <jrib> fogobogo: command1 | command2    sends the output of command1 to the input of command2.  grep works well as command2 when you are searching for stuff in the output of command1
[03:19] <tasmaniac> MeRodent, yep I know coz I got one of them in the server :P
[03:19] <Merlin--> magnetron any specific doc on tldp ?
[03:19] <kyle___> i  need to do this so that i can save power on my laptop as i dont need sound
[03:20] <kyle___> !sound
[03:20] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[03:20] <fogobogo> I see . Is it possible to quit one program and start another one with a single line?
[03:20] <ShackJack> kyle___: You can bloacklist the sound modules, I suppose - alsa oss
[03:20] <kyle___>  ShackJack: sorry?
[03:20] <magnetron> http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Ethernet-HOWTO.html Merlin--
[03:20] <jrib> fogobogo: command1; command2    or   command1 && command2    if you only want command2 to be run if command1 was successful
[03:20] <kyle___>  ShackJack: "alsa oss" huh?
[03:21] <ShackJack> kyle___: Erppp... blacklist the sound module thouse are the names of the sound modules... add them to /etc/modules.d/blacklist so linux doesn't load them.
[03:21] <fogobogo> jrib  Thanks thats kinda interesting to me
[03:21] <kyle___> !laptop
[03:21] <ubotu> Laptop support information can be found on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops - http://www.linux-laptop.net/ - http://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam - http://tuxmobil.org
[03:21] <kyle___> brb
[03:21] <MeRodent> tasmaniac,  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWiredNetworkCards then if you want to be picky.
[03:21] <jrib> fogobogo: you should read the "advanced bash scripting howto"
[03:21] <ShackJack> kyle___: You can blacklist pcspkr if you don't want the PC speaker to beep!
[03:22] <fogobogo> jrib ouch...i mean how long is it? 300 pages+? at least i can use cat and grep to search for something
[03:23] <tasmaniac> MeRodent, no use telling me :) Anyway mine worked straightaway from memory (unless that was freebsd)
[03:23] <GNine> meow
[03:23] <ruben> Hi, I have a question about wine, when i play warcraft 3 in fullscreen it's window seems to be transparant, i can see my web browser underneeth it.
[03:23] <MeRodent> tasmaniac, so did mine. Which was good as it let me then get online to set up ndiswrapper.
[03:24] <parabola> hi, I have a problem: i'm trying to configure ubuntu for a remote desktop via tunnel whit SSH. My router settings are ok and i can log into my windows xp account  from anywhere. I'm using the same static ip in windows and linux, but i's not workin on linux... any idea?
[03:24] <apecat> i'm building a new machine for myself next week, and about nvidias proprietary drivers, do they support the 8600 series well yet?
[03:25] <MeRodent> apecat, the proprietary drivers do but the included drivers don't support 3d
[03:25] <Merlin--> thank you magnetron   11111  checking it now
[03:25] <cast> parabola: are you forwarding the correct ports?
[03:25] <ShackJack> parabola: You have the ssh server/client packages installed?
[03:25] <parabola> yep, and it's workin for XP
[03:26] <magnetron> apecat: there is no way to know for sure, since they are closed source
[03:26] <MeRodent> apecat, let me clarify that. restricted drivers won't support 3d but the 100.14.11 drivers do.
[03:26] <parabola> yep openSSH installed, it's workin from liux with ''localhost''
[03:26] <parabola> bu still no access from LAN or WAN
[03:26] <cast> parabola: so you have explicitly forwarded port 22?
[03:26] <apecat> MeRodent: hmm, so you mean that the latest drivers from nvidia do work. i tend to build those with envy anyway
[03:27] <parabola> i forwarded a port for SSH ans another one for my tunnel
[03:27] <kbrooks> any tips for power saving using a lappy with ubuntu on it
[03:27] <cast> parabola: can you ssh into windows then? if the answer is no then you need to configure you're router properly, if its yes then check your ip tables rules and that sshd is listening on the right iface
[03:28] <parabola> yes it work on windows , i will look to ip tables thx
[03:28] <code_x> hello everyone, i have a problem i just installed ndiswrapper "sudo apt-get install  ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 " and when i try to load the module ndiswrapper it tell me "FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found."
[03:29] <code_x> can anyone help
[03:29] <locellcount> Could someone point me at a good step by step on getting ut2003 installed under 64bit feisty?
[03:29] <MeRodent> !wifi | code_x
[03:29] <ubotu> code_x: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:29] <ShackJack> code_x: Do you need to install ndiswrapper-common as well?
[03:30] <scaldov> I compiled ndiswrapper-1.48 from sources
[03:31] <scaldov> because of 1.47 was not able to work well
[03:31] <code_x> i try to install from the sources
[03:34] <kazim59> I want to learn about RAID.. can someone give me link to a recent resource? (the one at TLDP is dated 2004... is it good?)
[03:34] <astro76> !raid
[03:34] <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
[03:34] <scaldov> LVM?
[03:35] <kazim59> RAID.. not LVM
[03:35] <karel> I just installed kubuntu-desktop because I wanted to test it, is there a way to easily remove it again? (and then I mean including all the apps that came with it)
[03:36] <ShackJack> karel: sudo aptitude purge kubuntu-desktop would do it no? ANd just to be safe, sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop ;)
[03:36] <nguK> a
[03:36] <ToddEDM> hey guys... i was wondering about the new cell phone i got, its the Samsung SPH-m620, i was wondering if there was a way to get it connected to my linux laptop, it has a usb connection, but nothing happens when i plug it in
[03:37] <nguK> teu ngarti
[03:37] <ShackJack> ToddEDM: Perhaps the phone has a setting to put it in "mass storage mode" whereby it would be recognized a a remoable disk?
[03:38] <karel> ShackJack: that's what I did, but all apps are still installed
[03:38] <Merlin--> magneto... guys ... thats too much info....  but based on what i am understanding so far Ubuntu is understanding both network cards as one, am I right here?
[03:38] <ToddEDM> hmmm ShackJack, i dunno, maybe i should look into that
[03:38] <ToddEDM> thank you
[03:38] <Xero> Are there any tweaks (besides overclocking (already done that)) that make an old NVidia card faster?
[03:39] <ToddEDM> ok another question, anyone know what video files that a samsung phone uses?
[03:39] <ShackJack> karel: DOH... you might be able to remove all KDE apps by removing kdelibs-data ?
[03:39] <ttyS1> i'm trying to get a script to run before xorg starts, where should I put this script ?
[03:39] <ShackJack> ToddEDM: Sounds like a question answered in the user manual ;)
[03:39] <ToddEDM> lol
[03:40] <ToddEDM> fine :P
[03:41] <karel> ShackJack: yeah I have been deleting most stuff in kde submenu in synaptic, probably will rest some apps and / or config files, oh well...
[03:42] <ShackJack> karel: For the future to try stuff, I recommend running a virtual machine by VirtualBox or something ;)
[03:42] <karel> Well, actually, my ubuntu install IS tryout :P
[03:42] <Paddy_EIRE> karel, did you try both 'locate kde' and 'whereis kde' in a terminal?
[03:42] <ShackJack> karel: You migrating from Windows?
[03:42] <Merlin--> how can I separate two network cards ... ?
[03:43] <Paddy_EIRE> that should narrow down where all the files you need to remove are
[03:43] <karel> I'm using osx mainly, and windows and ubuntu next to it
[03:43] <karel> Paddy_EIRE: problem I actually use some kde apps
[03:43] <Paddy_EIRE> karel, yeah me too
[03:43] <ShackJack> karel: I purge my dualboot setup on my PCs and now run WindowsXP in a virtual machine... a little icon in my launcher and it pops up if I need it (not that I do)
[03:43] <karel> I actually was hoping for a "go back to before point x" option or something
[03:44] <Paddy_EIRE> karel, naa this aint win
[03:44] <Xero> Are there any tweaks (besides overclocking (already done that)) that make an old NVidia card faster?
[03:44] <karel> I don't use my windows often anymore
[03:44] <ShackJack> karel: You can sudo aptitude purge k and hit tab to auto complte and remove kde apps as they mostly begin with K ;)
[03:44] <karel> for IE
[03:44] <Paddy_EIRE> karel, best of remembering the steps you did and working your way back
[03:44] <karel> and bearshare :P
[03:44] <fop> xero not really
[03:44] <karel> Paddy_EIRE: how do you mean?
[03:45] <fop> just latest drivers id think
[03:45] <Xero> fop: :(
[03:45] <Paddy_EIRE> bearshare is just a piece of junk spyware
[03:45] <ShackJack> Xero: Would throwing it out and buying a newer one be considered a "tweak"?
[03:45] <Xero> Paddy_EIRE, true.
[03:45] <ShackJack> Paddy_EIRE: Bearshare - OMG are they still around ?!
[03:45] <fop> id think it would be a tweak
[03:45] <Merlin--> guys I still dont understand where my ubuntu is getting confused with the two NICs (same Chipset) different Mac ....
[03:45] <Xero> ShackJack, I am poor. That was considered an insult.
[03:45] <fop> what gfx card is it?
[03:45] <karel> ShackJack: yeah well, I was removing in synaptic, use terminal normally but in this case it's kinda handy to have a gui imo
[03:45] <ShackJack> Xero :) Which card do you have?
[03:45] <karel> Paddy_EIRE: I have bearshare pro, I don't have junk
[03:45] <Xero> ShackJack, GF4 MX4000
[03:46] <fop> why do you need it to go faster?
[03:46] <karel> and don't dare to compare it with the shit called limewire
[03:46] <Paddy_EIRE> karel, yeah you still do
[03:46] <Xero> fop: Compiz Fusion is slow.
[03:46] <LjL> !language | karel
[03:46] <ubotu> karel: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:46] <Paddy_EIRE> karel, what did you do exactly
[03:46] <karel> Paddy_EIRE: how's that?
[03:46] <Xero> Well, if I enable any of the -good- plugins it is.
[03:46] <fop> xero its still pretty buggy software
[03:46] <karel> Yes, I'm sorry
[03:46] <ShackJack> Xero; You can turn off certain effects to make it snappier and tweak some settings, but the fusion IRC could prolly tell you more...
[03:46] <wastrel> Merlin--: is /etc/iftab set up correctly?
[03:47] <Paddy_EIRE> karel, use frostwire.. open source and so much better
[03:47] <joli> hi there!

[03:55] <xeer> hi, can someone help me with unrar? i'm trying to extract all the rars in a directory to a specific location. i'd like not to use a shell script
[03:55] <fop_> is there a general ubuntu channel?

[03:55] <Kernelino> can someone tell me a good source.list ? my ubuntu have a problem with standard
[03:55] <fop_> isn;'t this support?
[03:55] <Kernelino> it's a new installation and i used always gentoo
[03:55] <Paddy_EIRE> zaggy-nl, dont enable that it causes annoyance
[03:56] <ShackJack> xeer The built in GUI thing should work for that - just double click the rar file (assuming you have unrar installeed)
[03:56] <zaggy-nl> Paddy_EIRE, It only shows on command :/
[03:56] <scaldov> Soth, people, please help! How should I install ATI?
[03:56] <ShackJack> scaldov: Use the restricted drivers manager
[03:56] <Kernelino> can someone tell me a good source.list ? my ubuntu have a problem with standard
[03:56] <LadyNikon> !ati
[03:56] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:56] <fop_> scaldov plenty of guides in the ubuntu forums
[03:56] <volent> hi all
[03:56] <LadyNikon> scaldov: please see the above link
[03:57] <xeer> ShackJack, strange because i don't see a gui for it
[03:57] <Kernelino> !source.list
[03:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about source.list - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:57] <Kernelino> lol i can't cuz lynx don't work
[03:57] <ShackJack> xeer If you double click you should... the usual one included in GNOME - not rar specific...
[03:57] <Kernelino> can someone support me ?
[03:57] <zaggy-nl> !sources
[03:57] <Paddy_EIRE> and you kids :P
[03:57] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[03:58] <xeer> ShackJack, yes GNOME is using file roller. but it doesn't have directory support just individual archives
[03:58] <ShackJack> Carl2 - Sorry for your troubles - wireless and sometimes graphics can still be dicey depending on the manufacturer, but ususally the problems are surmountable with a little help...
[03:58] <Kernelino> !easysource
[03:58] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[03:58] <ShackJack> xeer - Sorry I guess I don't understand what you are trying to do then..
[03:58] <Kernelino> lol i cant i don't ave a browser text
[03:58] <Kernelino> damn!
[03:58] <Carl2> how do i install xfce from within ubuntu?   Thanks Shackjack
[03:59] <xeer> ShackJack, i have hundreds of rars in a directory. I need to extract the contents from all those archives into another location
[03:59] <ShackJack> Carl2: sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop... then select session from login screen to use...
[03:59] <Tarkus> anyone here have experience capturing video of the screen (screencasting). i have recordMyDesktop and xvidcap installed. i cant get a decent smooth video with either app. any suggestions?
[03:59] <ShackJack> xeer - Ahh and you want to batch extract them then?
[03:59] <Carl2> thank you
[04:00] <xeer> ShackJack, correct.. looking for a command or a gui method. I could write a bash script but i'd prefer not to
[04:00] <ShackJack> Carl2 - better to install on it's own if you aren't going to use Ubuntu :)
[04:00] <karel> does xubuntu have *all* features of ubuntu? Like the restricted driver managing etc...
[04:01] <Dr_willis> karel,  that can be easially installed if its mussing.
[04:01] <Carl2> ok, thanks shackjack
[04:01] <Dr_willis> karel,  i think resricted manager is included by default on xubuntu.
[04:01] <karel> Dr_willis: you mean the drivers or the manager?
[04:01] <ShackJack> karel:  It has different proggies for lighter systems but is based on GTK so will run other stuff well.. and has stuff like restricted drivers manager, etc..
[04:01] <karel> oh ok :)
[04:01] <Dr_willis> karel,  both. :)
[04:02] <Dr_willis> karel,  ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu all use the same core of the OS. you can install anything from the others in any other.
[04:02] <Dr_willis> karel,  in fact i tend to install all 3 whole desktops on my machines.
[04:02] <karel> I've liked xfce in the past, but some simplifications (no samba support in thunar for example) kept me away fro mit
[04:02] <ShackJack> xeer: Found this thread :) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=161687
[04:02] <Dr_willis> karel,  theres xfsamba last i looked for xfce. :0
[04:03] <Merlin--> wastrel is it ok if i /query you
[04:03] <Kernelino> shack, can support me ?
[04:03] <Dr_willis> karel,  and a dozen OTHER ways to access samba shares. the smbfuse tool is my fave.
[04:03] <joli> Does anyone knows wich package has kbuild in? where can i find it?
[04:03] <Kernelino> omfg
[04:03] <karel> thanks Dr_willis
[04:04] <user30001> hi
[04:04] <Kernelino> hi a sick
[04:04] <xeer> ShackJack, was trying to avoid a script.. but thanks for the help
[04:04] <fop__> wow what happened then
[04:04] <Kernelino> can someone tell me how i can reconfigure my xorg ?
[04:04] <ShackJack> xeer - you can do via commandline - see man unrar though I'm fuzzy on the syntax... It can read rar files from a list, etc...
[04:05] <ShackJack> joli: kbuild should be in the repos ?
[04:05] <Maxdamantus> How do I make apt try using a different server to DL from? My closest server is down.
[04:05] <joli> ShackJack: gess not, just found out that is in the kernel source, lol
[04:05] <ShackJack> Kernelino: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:06] <joli> as it should
[04:06] <joli> :)
[04:06] <Dr_willis> Maxdamantus,  edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file with the names of the other servers
[04:06] <ShackJack> Maxdamantus: See software sources under Admin menu
[04:06] <fop__> hehe i convinced my brother he needs to let me install ubuntu on his puter
[04:07] <[nrx] > moo :)
[04:07] <ShackJack> fop_ It'll be a fun learning experience...

[04:15] <rylan_> Maxdamantus, interesting. but not what is happening to me
[04:15] <Maxdamantus> Meaning it keeps changing focus to the GUI aswell.
[04:15] <Tarkus> i want to start learning linux well and some programming languages. whats a good language that is populare, used both in open-source and closed source multiplatform projects? any suggestions??
[04:16] <Zombine> C++ or Python
[04:16] <Maxdamantus> horatio_, what grub problem?
[04:16] <Zombine> Java if you like easy
[04:16] <Zombine> Pythin if you like easy as we.. >.>
[04:16] <Maxdamantus> Python is whitespace sensitive. :\
[04:16] <Maxdamantus> That's weird.
[04:16] <rylan_> so, anyone else up for the challange of getting my videocard to stop slacking off and start graphically accelerating things?
[04:17] <Zombine> Maxdamantus That is... But still it easy
[04:17] <justin420> rylan_: what kind of card is it? nvidia if not i probably couldnt help much...
[04:17] <rylan_> its a nividia
[04:17] <Zombine> My question is the same as Rylan's I want to find the Linux equivalent of a driver for my Intel Graphics Accelerator 950
[04:18] <Maxdamantus> Well, a few other minor languages.
[04:18] <rylan_> justin420, one sec, ill get the kind
[04:18] <Maxdamantus> I've stretched PHP quite a bit.. Made a few IRC bots, IRC bouncers, and an IRCd in it.
[04:18] <rylan_> justin420, nope my bad, ATI radeon X1300
[04:18] <Zombine> ryaln_, you just need to go to nVidia's site and download the Linux drivers
[04:18] <Zombine> Am I right folks?
[04:19] <rylan_> Zombine, my mistake, i forgot i swapped out my old nvidia card
[04:19] <Zombine> rylan_ The Ati site has linux drivere there too I think
[04:19] <rylan_> ill try that.
[04:19] <Zombine> assuming I truly understand what's going on here...
[04:20] <[-Haza-] > Hello folks. I need a little help with Samba. I used the package manager to install samba and also create a shared folder in my home directory
[04:20] <devo> What does "ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave" mean?
[04:20] <[-Haza-] > On my windows machine when i try to map a network drive as \\ipaddress\sharename
[04:20] <justin420> Zombine: I I didnt have any luck getting my fastwrites and sandbind  addressing working using nvidia's drivers, but using nvidia-glx-new and a few other custom other tweaks got both working fine.
[04:20] <ttyS1> hello, I created a script, put it in /etc/init.d and ran sudo update-rc.d script defaults. The script was added to rc0 to rc6. However it doesn't look like the scripts starts before gdm starts. Is there a way I can specify the order of importance for the script to run ?
[04:21] <[-Haza-] > i get a the username and passowrd box but the credentials are not accepted
[04:21] <rediz_> motherboard wont see slave drive that had ubuntu installed on. system would not start so i wiped the master did a reinstall over windows on master. any ideas plz?
[04:21] <[-Haza-] > Im using my ubuntu username and password but no luck
[04:21] <wastrel> [-Haza-] : you need to create a samba password
[04:21] <tasmaniac> [-Haza-] , have you got the username passwd in smbpasswd
[04:22] <Tarkus> Zombine, so what do you think python or C++, at least what would be better to learn first if i decide to dip into both of them?
[04:22] <justin420> sandbind=sideband whoops too many beers already
[04:22] <[-Haza-] > wastrel, tasmaniac: where might i set this samba password?
[04:22] <[-Haza-] > I have looked through the file sharing in admin tools but i couldnt see much
[04:23] <Zombine> Tarkus Python is based off c++, but easier so you can prolly learn it first and get a good handle on c++
[04:23] <tasmaniac> [-Haza-] ,  smbpasswd
[04:23] <julia1> While file contains the startup items?
[04:23] <[-Haza-] > cheers
[04:23] <Zombine> justin420 Ah.... Well I just gave him bad info then ><.  Know anything about the Intel integrated video?
[04:24] <ubuntu_> hey im new cuold i get a welcome from d room

[04:26] <daurn|laptop> how can I support the iphone under ubuntu?
[04:26] <bluefox83> O.o
[04:26] <Maxtehmantus> horatio_, nano /boot/grub/grub.conf
[04:26] <Maxtehmantus> sudo nano*
[04:26] <devo> What does No sound drive is available for use mean?
[04:27] <Maxtehmantus> Actually, menu.lst, not grub.conf
[04:27] <daurn|laptop> devo: what prog?
[04:27] <devo> For TeamSpeak.
[04:27] <daurn|laptop> devo: you don't have alsa or OSS or libao or something most likely
[04:27] <LjL> how might i, in a shell script, process only N words coming from stdin at a time? in other words, i'm looking for a "cat" that exits after N words have been read
[04:27] <rediz_> hard drive with ubuntu on stopped workin. now i cant get motherboard to see drive. any ideas  anybody?
[04:27] <bahbah> hi all
[04:27] <daurn|laptop> rediz_: put the hdd in another computer
[04:27] <devo> daurn|laptop, I'm trying to use Wine to do Teamspeak... because the Linux binary doesn't work.
[04:27] <wastrel> LjL: pipe through head ?
[04:27] <bahbah> does anybody know how to make XP talk/connect to a Ubuntu box?
[04:27] <daurn|laptop> devo: no idea sorry
[04:28] <Maxtehmantus> bahbah, and do what?
[04:28] <bahbah> I'm on a network
[04:28] <wastrel> heh in another context "pipe through head" would have a very different meaning
[04:28] <bahbah> my ubuntu can connect to my XP box
[04:28] <bahbah> but no vice versa
[04:28] <LjL> wastrel: head can do bytes and lines, but i do actually need *words* (i.e. stop when a space-like character is found)
[04:28] <bahbah> keeps asking for a password to log into ubuntu
[04:28] <RenatoSilva> Segoe UI??????????
[04:28] <RenatoSilva> ???
[04:28] <RenatoSilva> ??
[04:28] <LjL> wastrel: heh
[04:28] <rediz_> havent got another comp
[04:29] <Maxtehmantus> bahbah, edit the smbd.conf or whatever it's called.
[04:29] <LjL> RenatoSilva, one question mark is enough isn't it
[04:29] <wastrel> LjL: loop and count the words i guess
[04:29] <bahbah> what smbd.conf?
[04:29] <Tarkus> Zombine, great. thanks man
[04:29] <LjL> wastrel, uhm, to loop i think i need something that stops after *every* word anyway, wouldn't it? (i suppose i could go byte by byte, or character by character, but that would end up a bit resource-intensive i fear)
[04:30] <rediz_> daurnjlaptop haven't got another box any other ideas
[04:30] <LjL> wastrel: although, uhm, i could try turning spaces into newlines with sed or tr, and then using head as you said
[04:31] <rediz_> daurnjlaptop haven't got another box any other ideas
[04:32] <Some_ux> how do i kick a logged user from my system ?
[04:32] <bahbah> I tried looking online
[04:33] <Maxtehmantus> Some_ux, kill all their processes?
[04:33] <horatio_> Maxtehmantus, yeah ... this far i got. but every time ubuntu updates a kernel the numbering changes
[04:33] <bahbah> but can't find any help on this
[04:33] <Some_ux> no simpler way ?
[04:33] <bp2626> How would I create a bootable USB from an iso image?
[04:33] <tasmaniac> bahbah tried looking in ubuntu forums for samba
[04:33] <bluefox83> Some_ux, how are they logged in?
[04:33] <Some_ux> nutty
[04:33] <bahbah> I have Samba instaleld
[04:33] <bluefox83> hrm?
[04:33] <bahbah> but when it tries to connect
[04:33] <Maxtehmantus> bp2626, do a normal install..
[04:33] <Some_ux> i simply closed the nutty window
[04:33] <bluefox83> Some_ux, you mean remote connection?
[04:33] <Some_ux> but
[04:33] <Maxtehmantus> You can't boot ISO images.
[04:33] <bahbah> it prompts for a user name and password
[04:34] <Some_ux> if i wanted to kick someone which was not me ?
[04:34] <bahbah> which doesn't seem to work
[04:34] <tasmaniac> bahbah, have you got the username passwd set in smbpasswd
[04:34] <bp2626> Maxtehmantus, I mean create a bootable flash drive (USB) from an ISO image, sorry
[04:34] <kazim59> I am not able to install raidtools2 using apt-get.. it says not availible, missing, or obsoleted etc...
[04:34] <LjL> Some_ux: you could kill their shell's process i suppose
[04:34] <Maxtehmantus> bp2626, do a normal install..
[04:34] <Maxtehmantus> You can't boot ISO images.
[04:35] <karel> Is it normal that when you click with the mouse above "applications" menu, the menu isn't selected because you are TOO high?
[04:35] <Some_ux> LjL: is there no specific command to kicking users from the system ?
[04:35] <bp2626> Maxtehmantus, I don't want to install on to the usb stick, I want to create a bootable usb stick with the OS image then install it to HDD
[04:35] <gurkburk_> karel: not sure if its normal, I cant click "above it"...
[04:35] <Agent_smith> Can anyone help me setup my gateway through my router?
[04:35] <bluefox83> karel, click on it..not above it
[04:35] <Maxtehmantus> bp2626, it's not an OS image.
[04:36] <rediz_> why wont bios see slave hd that had ubuntu installed on?
[04:36] <Maxtehmantus> The CD has a bootloader, and a kernel.
[04:36] <karel> find it somehow "logic" to click above it, but ok, normal :)
[04:36] <Some_ux> Agent_smith: a router is a gateway
[04:36] <LjL> Some_ux: if there is, i don't know about it
[04:36] <bp2626> Yes, /boot/loader and /boot/kernel/kernel, I know this
[04:36] <Maxtehmantus> And the kernel does basic things, and extracts the squashfs to a tmpfs
[04:36] <rediz_> its really messed my system up
[04:36] <Maxtehmantus> And then chroots into the tmpfs.
[04:36] <bp2626> Maxtehmantus yes *I know* I am asking how to turn a USB stick into a bootable drive from inside Ubuntu
[04:37] <Maxtehmantus> bp2626, what's stopping you?
[04:37] <bp2626> I don't know how
[04:37] <Agent_smith> Some_ux, The gateway ip is 0.0.0.0 but it won't accept this in Kubuntu
[04:37] <Maxtehmantus> A flash drive should be seen just like a normal HD.
[04:37] <Some_ux> 0.0.0.0 is all
[04:37] <Maxtehmantus> You might have issues with space though.
[04:38] <Agent_smith> Some_ux, What do you mean?
[04:38] <Some_ux> try setting your gateway to something like 10.0.0.100
[04:39] <Agent_smith> ok one sec
[04:39] <devo> What does ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave mean?
[04:39] <bp2626> How would one take an CD ISO image and put it into a USB stick and make it bootable?
[04:39] <bluefox83> bp2626, very carefully...
[04:39] <rafaelscj> when I close an app, the text that was in transfer area disappear. is there a way to fix it?
[04:39] <Some_ux> Agent_smith: your gateway and router should be in the same ip subnet
[04:40] <Maxtehmantus> bp2626, it'd be more convenient to do a normal minimal install.
[04:40] <Maxtehmantus> So you can modify the data.
[04:40] <warbisshop> anyone here know a good program to burn .avi files onto a disc so any dvd player can read it ?
[04:40] <bluefox83> devo, something is using your soundcard, and it's blocking alsa from using it
[04:40] <Some_ux> Agent_smith: so for example, the router in 10.0.0.10 and the gateway on 10.0.0.1
[04:40] <bp2626> Maxtehmantus I plan to do a netboot, I need a way to start the kernel, and have no CD drive or floppy drive
[04:40] <Maxtehmantus> If you make it like the LiveCD, it'll extract the same squashfs to tmpfs each time.
[04:40] <bp2626> so I am going to boot into my USB drive
[04:40] <bp2626> I am masking how to take ISO -> USB DRIVE (bootable)
[04:40] <devo> bluefox83, How do I fix it?
[04:41] <bluefox83> warbisshop, you have to convert the avi and do a bunch of other junk to it before you can burn it...burning it is the easy part though
[04:41] <warbisshop> so no eazy feature like with nero :(
[04:41] <bluefox83> devo, find out whats accessing your sound card...likely it's ESD
[04:41] <bluefox83> warbisshop, K3b might be able to
[04:41] <rafaelscj> bp2626, pendrivelinux.com
[04:41] <Agent_smith> Some_ux, ok let me try
[04:42] <devo> bluefox83, What is ESD and how to I figure out what's accessing my sound card, is there a program that will show me?
[04:42] <_snow_blind_> hello everyone :) I'm having troubles with dvd playback on gutsy, I think it's a dma issue but i can't seem to turn on DMA. I get the inapropriate ioctl for device error
[04:42] <xerxe> hi all
[04:42] <bp2626> I am just asking for the instructions on how to take a small iso image and put it onto a USB stick and make that stick bootable
[04:42] <Maxtehmantus> bp2626, in that case, it'd be possible to install GRUB to the flash drive, and extract the data from the ISO into a directory in the flash device.
[04:42] <LadyNikon> whats the name of the program that runs window office in linux?
[04:42] <bp2626> I am sure someone knows the commands
[04:42] <Maxtehmantus> And make GRUB boot that.
[04:42] <mattuk> Crossover office?
[04:42] <LadyNikon> crossover yeah
[04:42] <warbisshop> bluefox83 its only for KDE :(
[04:42] <bluefox83> devo, ESD is gnome's default sound server, but you don't really need it since most of your apps are going to use alsa anyways... just do: ps x
[04:42] <rafaelscj> bp2626, using windows or linux?
[04:43] <bp2626> using Linuxc
[04:43] <bluefox83> warbisshop, no it's not...i use it in gnome all the time
[04:43] <MOTZ> how can i  update k3b to german ?
[04:43] <bp2626> rafaelscj, using Ubuntu 7.04
[04:43] <rylan_> how can i check to see what driver im using on my videocard?
[04:43] <bluefox83> devo, once you do ps x look for esd in the list, find the number for it to the left, and do kill -9 <that number>
[04:43] <rafaelscj> bp2626, look at http://www.pendrivelinux.com/category/usb-installs-from-linux/
[04:43] <LadyNikon> thanks mattuk
[04:43] <devo> bluefox83, Thanks.
[04:44] <bluefox83> devo, no problem
[04:44] <wastrel> it's ok
[04:44] <xerxe> if u ever have any problems with power settings under totem movie player ( monitor enters standby mode after about 10 minutes) here's the solution: use totem -xine instead of totem gstremer. peace for all. solved that nasty bug out. peace!.
[04:44] <rediz_> cant get my box bios to see hd that had linux on. how can iformat it
[04:45] <bp2626> rafaelscj I don't want to install Linux to the USB drive, I want to make a bootable USB drive with an ISO, boot that and install to HDD
[04:45] <warbisshop> bluefox83 tried the synapic and it found it so ill take it :D
[04:45] <bp2626> using the USB stick like a standard install CD
[04:45] <rafaelscj> bp2626, yes, it's for that
[04:45] <rylan_> how can i check to see what driver im using on my videocard?
[04:45] <bp2626> oh ok
[04:45] <bluefox83> warbisshop, k3b has a lot of nice features, it's what most folks use when they want a gui burning app
[04:46] <rafaelscj> bp2626, you will copy the ISO file to pen drive, then make it bootable
[04:46] <_snow_blind_> Has anyone else had DMA issues on the dvd drive with gutsy?
[04:46] <bluefox83> rylan_, lsmod then look for what says video next to it
[04:46] <Maxtehmantus> rediz_, echo "mklabel msdos"$'\n'"mkpartfs primary ext2 0% 100%" >> sudo parted
[04:46] <devo> bluefox83, AHHHH, now my Totem is not working. lulz  I killed ESD, although the process said /usr/bin/esd
[04:46] <Maxtehmantus> Wait.
[04:46] <bluefox83> _snow_blind_, what with the what now?
[04:46] <Maxtehmantus> The sudo needs to go before everythng.
[04:47] <rylan_> bluefox83, thanks.
[04:47] <bluefox83> devo, yeah that's what was using your soundcard
[04:47] <Maxtehmantus> Actually, suing to root first would be easier.
[04:47] <FFighter> heya
[04:47] <bluefox83> just do sudo -s
[04:47] <FFighter> all
[04:47] <bluefox83> then you wont have to keep using sudo before everything
[04:48] <devo> bluefox83, Should I turn off Firefox also? I couldn't hear anything on Youtube at first so I opened up a mp3 to see if it was Linux...
[04:48] <FFighter> my keyboard doesn't have a compatible correspondent layout so I end up by missing some chars
[04:48] <_snow_blind_> bluefox83: lol, I am trying to enable DMA on my dvd drive (using gutsy) but i just get this error: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[04:48] <FFighter> is there a way to customize the keyboard layout ?
[04:48] <rylan_> bluefox83, interesting, it doesnt say anything but "0" next to video
[04:48] <USMarine> !ubuntu+a
[04:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu+a - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:48] <bluefox83> devo, that's up to you
[04:48] <USMarine> !ubuntu+1
[04:48] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[04:48] <USMarine> !ubuntu+1 > _snow_blind_
[04:49] <rafaelscj> FFighter, system > pref > keyboard
[04:49] <bluefox83> rylan_, what card are you using?
[04:49] <_snow_blind_> USMarine: thanks mate
[04:49] <FFighter> rafaelscj, yeah, I'm already there... but my keyboard isn't either a 104 nor 102 layout
[04:49] <rylan_> bluefox83, ati radeon 1300
[04:50] <devo> bluefox83, I tried running Teamspeak in wine and I think that's what is blocking my sound card... but I closed out of the application... But ever since I did that I don't have any sound.
[04:50] <bluefox83> rylan_, then i think your driver should be inside /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:50] <FFighter> rafaelscj, it is a genius keyboard but its layout doesn't fit in any of the layouts to choose from this preferences dialog
[04:50] <bluefox83> devo, there is a version of teamspeak in the repo that works fine without wine...
[04:51] <FFighter> rafaelscj, it should be an ABNT2 keyboard, but it seems there are some discrepancies
[04:51] <efkan> merhaba
[04:52] <FFighter> Is there a place where I could download additional keyboard layouts or something ?
[04:52] <devo> bluefox83, I think I tried it, and at first it worked fine, but then I messed with the sound settings because it was using OSS and blocking all other sounds that weren't on Teamspeak, so I was tweaking with the setting to hear sound from other programs and I ended up disabling sound on Teamspeak... and now when I join a server I automatically have my sound muted and my mic muted and I can't unmute them.
[04:52] <FFighter> Or maybe reconfigure the available ones to fit my keyboard ??
[04:52] <rafaelscj> FFighter, are you brazilian? what keys don't work?
[04:52] <bluefox83> devo, i dunno...working with sound in linux can be a pain in the butt...
[04:53] <devo> bluefox83, Yeah...
[04:53] <rylan_> bluefox83, hmmm, looks like im using fglrx but it isnt allowing hardware accelleration
[04:53] <devo> bluefox83, I guess I'll just reboot.
[04:53] <bluefox83> devo, rebooting wont solve anythign to my knowledge
[04:53] <bluefox83> *anything
[04:53] <devo> bluefox83, Is there no console command that will bring up a list of programs that are accessing the sound card?
[04:54] <Maxtehmantus> devo, lsof | grep /dev/snd
[04:54] <FFighter> rafaelscj, yeah :) I'm having a hard time with the backslash key... on my keyboard it is located in the lower left corner (left of shift) but in the Brazil layout it is just above the enter key - the problem is that my enter key is bigger (taller) and the only key above it is backspace
[04:54] <bluefox83> rylan_, i have no idea how to get hardware acceleration out of a ati card. sorry
[04:54] <Maxtehmantus> That should work.
[04:54] <devo> Maxtehmantus, thanks. :D
[04:54] <DjViper> I lub lsof
[04:54] <rylan_> bluefox83, thanks for the help so far. you have gotten me a lot closer. appearantly there is an ati linux driver now. i seem to remember their not being one when i first set up my drivers
[04:55] <FFighter> rafaelscj, other than that, in overall the Brazil's layout works fine
[04:55] <bluefox83> ok guys, i gotta go
[04:55] <greyfrog> anyone know a way to start a user (not root) process at boot?
[04:55] <rafaelscj> FFighter, there is apps for windows that creates layouts, google may help you, is there a key named "Fn"?
[04:55] <[-Haza-] > I have another question about Raid. I have a computer here with two hard drives plugged in to a hardware raid controller in a PCI slot on the mother board
[04:56] <DjViper> greyfrog: use the session manager
[04:56] <[-Haza-] > This box is running windows at the moment and i want to install ubuntu onto it
[04:56] <Maxtehmantus> greyfrog, make it run "su -c <command>"
[04:56] <[-Haza-] > How might i go about doing this?
[04:56] <USMarine> better use LVM [-Haza-] 
[04:56] <LjL> Maxtehmantus: su?
[04:56] <Maxtehmantus> "su user -c <command>" I mean.
[04:56] <Maxtehmantus> I think.
[04:57] <[-Haza-] > Will LVM have to format the raid array to install?
[04:57] <Jygzy-> what was the command that shows in what directory uou are?
[04:57] <LjL> hmm well yeah
[04:57] <LjL> Jygzy-: pwd
[04:57] <devo> What's the program mixer_applet2? Is that vital for Ubuntu to run?
[04:57] <USMarine> dont think so
[04:57] <USMarine> dont think so devo
[04:57] <DjViper> devo: it's the alsa mixer afaik
[04:57] <Maxtehmantus> devo, sounds like a sound server,
[04:57] <Maxtehmantus> Yup.
[04:57] <rafaelscj> FFighter, other question, can you type "~" over "a" or "o"?
[04:58] <greyfrog> Maxtehmantus, completely forgot about that thanks... su username -c "command"
[04:58] <devo> I'll just reboot... =|
[04:58] <USMarine> [-Haza-]  with an LVM you can have a directory spanned through several disks
[04:58] <FFighter> rafaelscj,  
[04:58] <FFighter> rafaelscj,  :)
[04:59] <FFighter> rafaelscj, I can't see a key named "Fn"
[04:59] <rafaelscj> FFighter, I can't to this
[04:59] <rafaelscj> do*
[04:59] <Maxtehmantus> Omg? Why did varka take the red pill?
[04:59] <Maxtehmantus> Should've taken the blue one.
[04:59] <DjViper> lol
[05:00] <rediz_> maxtehmantus  done that
[05:00] <Maxtehmantus> Then he gets to go to the matrix HQ.
[05:00] <FFighter> Maxtehmantus, the red keeps you in the fake world ?
[05:00] <julia1> How do I list all users and groups in the terminal?
[05:00] <DjViper> I bet that whole matrix pill thing had a REAL positive effect on our youth lol
[05:00] <Maxtehmantus> julia1, ls -lh /dev/pts/
[05:00] <LjL> is there a way to check if an EOF has been received from stdin, in bash?
[05:01] <Maxtehmantus> Oh, misinterpreted.
[05:01] <USMarine> julia1 cat /etc/group
[05:01] <Maxtehmantus> Uhh.. cat /etc/passwd
[05:02] <julia1> Maxthemantus, USMarine: Thank you! Do you know which users and groups I can delete that are added per default?
[05:02] <Devo> Ok... I restarted.
[05:02] <Devo> My sound is fine now.
[05:02] <Devo> I think it was Wine that messed everything up.
[05:02] <panosru> Why i get this error all the time? E: ttf-opensymbol: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 66
[05:02] <panosru> 
[05:02] <panosru> :/
[05:03] <USMarine> julia1 i wouldn't recommend deleting system users, they were created by some programs for instance
[05:03] <Downix> Hmm, any way to add AFFS support in Ubuntu w/o a kernel recompile?
[05:03] <USMarine> panosru broken dependencies
[05:03] <julia1> but there are tons of users and groups
[05:04] <Agent_smith> Some_ux, Still no luck :/
[05:04] <panosru> USMarine, how can i fix them?
[05:04] <Some_ux> hmm, what is the gateway ? an ubuntu ?
[05:05] <rediz_> linux has mashed up mi 40g hd.bios wont c it
[05:07] <opium> my gnome-panel doesnt display on other workspaces except 1.. anyone have any ideas?
[05:08] <Agent_smith1> Some_ux, gateway is 0.0.0.0
[05:09] <Some_ux> I dont understand, it should be something like 192.168.1.xxx
[05:09] <Agent_smith1> Some_ux, Thats from the router
[05:10] <Some_ux> your gateway is an ubuntu ?
[05:10] <rhalff> hi what is the easiest way to configure a new wireless pci card in my system ? the forum says it's recognized at install automatically, how can I let the card be detected on an existing system ?
[05:10] <opium> my gnome panel doesnt display on other workspaces except 1.. anyone know why?
[05:10] <mmcji> morning
[05:10] <atlfalcons866> #debian
[05:11] <Agent_smith1> Some_ux, I'm trying to configure the gateway in Kubuntu to connect to the router
[05:11] <mmcji> i am trying to install 7.04 but my network card is not being recognized.  It worked with out error on 6.10.
[05:11] <Some_ux> The 0.0.0.0 is your host (PC) not your network cards IP address. This is normal and every PC will have this. Your IP address will be something in the realm of 192.168.0.1 or 10.0.0.1 or something like that.
[05:12] <Some_ux> when you type ifconfig what do you get ?
[05:12] <mmcji> I can put in an older version of mepis or ubuntu and the card words fine, but with the newest versions of ubuntu, either 7.04 for the beta's of 7.10 or mepis it is not recongized
[05:12] <kkathman> mmcji:  what card - maybe I missed it
[05:13] <mmcji> i am looking for infomration, url etc... on what change networking wise from 6.10 to 7.04,,
[05:13] <Agent_smith1> Some_ux, shows up eth1 as normal
[05:13] <mmcji> i have several, USR 2410 which uses Orinoco
[05:13] <mmcji> Dell TrueMobile 1150
[05:14] <kkathman> mmcji: if it worked under previous ubuntu there's no logical reason it wouldnt under feisty, I dont believe
[05:14] <Some_ux> it should also show you the eth0 ip address
[05:14] <mmcji> ath i think for the 1150
[05:14] <Agent_smith1> Some_ux, no, just eth1 and lo
[05:15] <Some_ux> maybe ifconfig -a ?
[05:16] <roberto__> hello
[05:16] <Agent_smith1> Some_ux, same thing
[05:16] <roberto__> im from mexico
[05:16] <mmcji> yeah i can go in and manually do a ifconfig -a and i have both a wifi0 and a wlan0
[05:16] <roberto__> regards
[05:16] <mmcji> but when i do iwconfig
[05:16] <mmcji> i get message that no wireless extensions
[05:17] <Some_ux> Agent_smithl: I get something like:    inet addr:10.0.0.1  Bcast:10.255.255.255  Mask:255.0.0.0
[05:17] <rylan_> can someone quickly walk me through installing new video card drivers?
[05:18] <kkathman> rylan what card?
[05:18] <rylan_> its an ATI radion 1300, i already have the driver downloaded. i just cant remember how to install it
[05:18] <kkathman> !ati | rylan
[05:18] <Some_ux> to setup port forwarding, or whatever it is you need to do with the router, you will need to know the precise IP address of the gateway as the router sees it
[05:18] <ubotu> rylan: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:19] <rylan_> thanks kkathman
[05:19] <rylan_> i hope this one work
[05:19] <rylan_> s
[05:19] <Some_ux> Agent_smithl: can you remote console the router to see all the current lan connections
[05:19] <Agent_smith1> Some_ux, Yes it's what I get as well, but it seems Kubuntu is not accpting the default gatway
[05:19] <Some_ux> ?
[05:20] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: which way is the problem ? going out or going into your kubuntu?
[05:20] <Agent_smith1> BuffaloSoldier, Going out
[05:20] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, out
[05:21] <FFighter> Is there a tool to debug X11 symbols ? Like to know which symbol corresponds to a given keyboard key ?
[05:21] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: what is the ip of your router again?
[05:21] <FFighter> for example pressing A would output AC01
[05:22] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, 192.168.1.1
[05:22] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: and your kubuntu ip address is?
[05:22] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: this is DHCP allocated or static?
[05:22] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, 192.168.1.101
[05:22] <Agent_smith1> DHCP
[05:23] <Agent_smith1> allocated
[05:23] <FFighter> any hints?
[05:23] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: do a  route  or netstat -ran  and see if you have a gateway
[05:24] <atlfalcons866> how can i install gutsy
[05:24] <J-_> !gutsy
[05:24] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[05:24] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, I have a list
[05:24] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: do you see a gateway listed?
[05:25] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: paste it on pastebin so we can see
[05:25] <Agent_smith1> yes as 0.0.0.0 at the bottom
[05:25] <Agent_smith1> sorry there is two
[05:25] <dos000> i keep getting "*** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption (fast): 0x08079e90 ***"
[05:25] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: paste it on pastebin so we can see
[05:27] <dos000> this is when i try to ctrl c a ngrep process
[05:27] <rylan_> i need some advice on my video card drivers.
[05:28] <FFighter> Any tools to get X11 keycodes like AC01, AB02 etc ?
[05:29] <rylan_> i have an ATI X1300 video card, and im not getting hardware acceleration from the fglrx drivers that i seem to be using right now
[05:29] <Some_ux> ok, i can't seem to make my ups wkr
[05:29] <Some_ux> work
[05:30] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: its resolved?
[05:30] <Some_ux> but, i have an insane solution, i'll vmaware an XP and put the monitoring tools on the virtual PC, then script shutdown to the host machine
[05:30] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, one sec
[05:31] <rylan_> anyone want to help me out with my graphical acceleration problems?
[05:31] <overridex> is there a hotkey to open up the gnome main menu?
[05:32] <GrahamA> So... I'm thinking of getting 64bit Kubuntu... my problem is... are the ati fglrx drivers available in 64bit?
[05:32] <rylan_> yep. they are
[05:32] <Usrl_> How do I remove Azureus settings and info completely? Because I've apt-get removed it and reinstalled it, and it still has the same stuff in it, and it's causing problems.
[05:32] <rylan_> im going through fglrx issues right now grahamA
[05:33] <jrbl> I've recently upgraded to Tribe 5 and have started having troubles; is this the appropriate forum to ask about it?
[05:33] <hegur1> Usrl_: rm ~/.azureus
[05:33] <Usrl_> hegur1: appreciated
[05:33] <GrahamA> rylan_: I assume you've tried the restricted drivers manager with little luck.
[05:33] <larson9999> how to you 'get out of x' in ubuntu?
[05:33] <vinnie_> After I kill a wine app with ctrl-c in terminal, my sound is gone. When i try to start an mp3 or video, its app will crash. Is there any way to bring back the sound without rebooting. I tried restarting with alsa-utils but no luck
[05:33] <rylan_> GrahamA, bingo, it still says im getting no hardware acceleration
[05:33] <hegur1> Usrl_: rm -r ~/.azureus (to remove the whole folder)
[05:33] <GrahamA> larson9999: Log out and press ctrl+alt+F1
[05:34] <GrahamA> I think...
[05:34] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, http://pastebin.ca/707077
[05:34] <GrahamA> No it's just alt-f1
[05:34] <jrbl> larson9999: All the way, or just temporarily?  You can get to a virtual terminal (text) with ctrl-alt-[f1|f2|...etc.]   But if you want to get out of x altogether, you'll need to shut down the x server.
[05:34] <FFighter> Whats the keysym name for pipe ?
[05:34] <ArmedKing> !quickcam
[05:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about quickcam - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:34] <FFighter> To put in a .xmodmap file ?
[05:34] <GrahamA> I was right the firsttime
[05:34] <POVaddct> FFighter: "bar" i guess
[05:34] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: that looks okay, can you ping that 192.168.1.1  ?
[05:35] <FFighter> POVaddct, thanks
[05:35] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, yes I can ping it
[05:35] <rylan_> so anyone use ATi supplied linux drivers?
[05:35] <FFighter> POVaddct, I suppose there's a key with a symname foo then ? :P
[05:36] <hegur1> rylan_: yes what is your question?
[05:36] <POVaddct> FFighter: no :)
[05:36] <FFighter> POVaddct, thanks, it worked :)
[05:36] <rylan_> hegurl, are they stable? im thinking about switching to them
[05:36] <rafa> i can't copy files to a HD. Can anybody help me?
[05:37] <mortenjs> Hi I have just installed Ubuntu. and im a newb to linux. I need to install my WLAN netcard.  I have downloaded the .tgz archive, but what shall I now do??
[05:37] <hegur1> rylan_: what ati card do you have? For some cards ATI drivers are the only choice (X1400 for instance)
[05:37] <hegur1> rylan_: they are very stable
[05:37] <rylan_> hegurl, i have an x1300
[05:37] <rediz__> use synaptick downloader
[05:37] <GrahamA> mortenjs: What card?
[05:37] <lomarpo> hi, there !
[05:37] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, What now?
[05:38] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: if you can ping it, then can you also ping www.yahoo.com ?
[05:38] <hegur1> rylan_: go for ati drivers, you can use the one from the repository, or you can download the latest ones from ATI
[05:38] <warbisshop> Anyone here use AviDeMux ?
[05:38] <jrbl> So, Since I dist-upgraded the other day, my Thinkpad has been streaming "device-mapper: table: 254:0: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed" to my terminals, and udev is taking up 50% of my CPU.  Help?
[05:38] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, no, nothing comes up
[05:38] <mortenjs> its a Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI
[05:38] <rylan_> hegurl, i just downloaded the newest one. i just wanted to check that i wouldnt be causing some huge explosion by trying it.
[05:38] <GrahamA> mortenjs: Are they official drivers?
[05:38] <POVaddct> mortenjs: you don't need a .tgz file for that card
[05:39] <Stoned> someone have a delcop print?
[05:39] <POVaddct> mortenjs: it should work out of the box
[05:39] <hegur1> rylan_: just make sure you uninstall any old ati drivers from repository if u installed them earlier
[05:39] <hegur1> rylan_: rest would be all fine
[05:39] <mortenjs> okay. but it wont connect to my router
[05:39] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: is your router connected to the internet?
[05:39] <luumanh> anyone run vmware workstation 6.0.1?
[05:39] <POVaddct> mortenjs: which kind of wireless encryption?
[05:39] <rylan_> hegur1, how do i go about checking that?
[05:39] <mortenjs> WEP
[05:40] <Bradley> hi can someone help me plz
[05:40] <bulmer> mortenjs: without WEP will it connect?
[05:40] <hegur1> rylan_: dpkg -l | grep fglrx
[05:40] <Bradley> someone help plz
[05:40] <hegur1> Bradley: ask your question
[05:40] <rediz__> bradley : wot is it
[05:40] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, The rout is connected to a cable modem, which is how i'm typing :)
[05:40] <POVaddct> mortenjs: maybe your router is configured to do 54mbit only. the ipw2100 is a 11mbit only card.
[05:40] <Vega> Holy crap this hannel is huge.
[05:40] <Vega> O.o
[05:40] <Agent_smith1> router*
[05:40] <Bradley> i  have a DELL 924 printer
[05:40] <mortenjs> bulmer ill try it.
[05:40] <Bradley> and cant install it
[05:41] <rediz__> and
[05:41] <Bradley> i have gone through all the steps
[05:41] <rylan_> hegur1, looks like there is both xorg and fgrlx
[05:41] <Bradley> but it still wont work
[05:41] <rediz__> yeah
[05:41] <rafa> i need to copy files from my personal file in Ubuntu to another partition. I need help...
[05:41] <mortenjs> PoVaddct my card can connect when i have Windows installed so thats not the problem
[05:41] <downhillgames> O_o
[05:41] <RandomPerson> WTF THERE ARE LIKE A MILLION NAMES REGGED HERE
[05:41] <RandomPerson> :|
[05:41] <downhillgames> lol
[05:41] <hegur1> rylan_: is there and "ii" before fglrx package?
[05:41] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: maybe you can elaborate on what you have, devices and how your network is laidout, am guessing as to wha tyou have
[05:41] <POVaddct> mortenjs: okay
[05:41] <ArmedKing> Anyone using a Logitech Quickcam Fusion?
[05:41] <downhillgames> RandomPerson is random.
[05:41] <POVaddct> mortenjs: then try what bulmer suggested, first unencrypted
[05:41] <chewed-on> Anybody wanna duel in Open Arena ? :D
[05:42] <Xeros> ...
[05:42] <sponix> ok... last upgrade had updates for update-manager ... latest major change was activating udev on runlevel 2,3,4,5,S... I have the error where /dev/null is mod 600 instead of 666, udev rules list it as 666... I turned udev off of 2,3,4,5 and left S (as it originally was) and still get the error
[05:42] <POVaddct> mortenjs: if that works, you can try configuring WEP or WPA
[05:42] <rylan_> hegur1, there is an ii infront of both the xorg and fgrlx ones
[05:42] <hegur1> rylan_: if yes then you can uninstall it by doing: sudo apt-get remove fglrx-kernel-2.6.20-16-lowlatency
[05:42] <rylan_> hegur1, install the new drivers first or uninstall that one first
[05:42] <Bradley> hello are u helping??
[05:43] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, Wireless router and each pc is connected to the router via wires
[05:43] <sponix> found a quick hack online, just putting chmod 666 /dev/null into rc.local and it works, but the question is what is screwing my /dev/null up every time ?
[05:43] <hegur1> rylan_: install the new ones first
[05:43] <hegur1> rylan_: they install in a different location so there would be no problem
[05:43] <rediz__> do you have driver
[05:43] <rylan_> fantastic, thanks hegur1
[05:43] <sponix> anyone know what causes this /dev/null permission problem ?
[05:43] <Bradley> has anyone an idea how to fix a DELL 924 AIO printer with ubunut
[05:44] <downhillgames> XenoSigmaVegaPer; pick a name.
[05:44] <XenoSigmaVegaPer> Yes I know.
[05:44] <XenoSigmaVegaPer> Everyone
[05:44] <XenoSigmaVegaPer> i fucking go on
[05:44] <XenoSigmaVegaPer> is regged
[05:44] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: compare the result of your windows  netstat -ran and your kubuntu's
[05:44] <XenoSigmaVegaPer> Like even my own ORIGINAL NICKS are regged. >_>
[05:44] <XenoSigmaVegaPer> Scary.
[05:44] <LadyNikon> umm
[05:44] <LadyNikon> !language
[05:44] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:45] <mortenjs_> i can log on my wireless if i dont have a password on
[05:45] <sponix> rylan_: having issues with lowlatency kernels ?
[05:45] <GrahamA> mortenjs_: You want to password it?
[05:45] <warbisshop> anyone know about a good tool to combine an srt file with an ati file ?
[05:45] <rafa> Am I allowed to talk in other language?
[05:45] <warbisshop> i mean avi
[05:45] <mortenjs_> yes i want
[05:45] <XenoSigmaVegaPer> list
[05:45] <XenoSigmaVegaPer> .
[05:46] <GrahamA> rafa: There's language specific Ubuntu channels, I recommend you have a look otherwise me and you may get confused.
[05:46] <GrahamA> mortenjs_: Most wireless routers have a page where you can add encryption.
[05:46] <POVaddct> mortenjs: you better set the WEP key in hexadecimal notation, not as a password
[05:46] <Agent_smith1> bulmer, In Windows it just shows "ON-LINK"
[05:47] <POVaddct> mortenjs: because it is ambiguos how the password is transformed to the actual key
[05:47] <GrahamA> In <browser> go to the ip of your router, have a look.
[05:47] <GrahamA> Unless you have an ascii key like I do.
[05:47] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: i dont recall the exact command for an equivalent netstat -ran of linux...maybe its route -print or netstat -n
[05:48] <kazim59> Are raidtools2 no longer distributed with Ubuntu, or availible in repos? please somebody check or confirm or tell me how to do so
[05:48] <bulmer> Agent_smith1: both should have a route table, so basically i want you to compare both and they should have very similar entries
[05:48] <rafa> how can i get permission to copy a file to a non-Linux partition?
[05:48] <MasterShrek> rafa use root
[05:48] <MasterShrek> if that doesnt work, its probably mounted read-only
[05:48] <hegur1> kazim59: raidtools2 are available with feisty
[05:48] <GrahamA> rafa: You need to use chmod
[05:48] <GrahamA> Like so
[05:48] <jrib> rafa: what filesystem
[05:49] <hegur1> rafa: is it a Windows partition? if yes is it NTFS?
[05:49] <bulmer> rafa: is it your own file system? or someone else :)
[05:49] <GrahamA> chmod 777 /media/hdb1
[05:49] <rafa> no general files
[05:49] <GrahamA> rafa: Do you have ntfs-3g?
[05:49] <rafa> yes GrahamA

[05:51] <Zombine> I tried to install Amarok, and it installed a bunch of other KDE apps (presumably for support) But KNotify crashes every time it tries to run.  Are there more library files I need to find or something
[05:52] <Zatch> Finally a nonregged nick.
[05:52] <Zatch> >_<
[05:52] <rafa> it is a partition only to store files
[05:52] <GrahamA> Zombine: You need to have the kde backend for amarok to work.
[05:52] <karel> Anyone an idea if it's possible (and how) to set some sort of "mouse jump" when moving windows to other virtual desktops by dragging. That is: when I take a window and move to the screen edge now, I almost always flip through all my virtual desktops at once instead of one further. A possible solution would be that when I arrive on the next desktop, the mouse "jumps" a few pixels more to the center of the screen, so I need to move a little to
[05:52] <GrahamA> Install kde
[05:52] <warbisshop> anyone know a decent tool to add subtitles to a avi movie ?
[05:52] <karel> in compiz that is
[05:53] <karel> warbisshop: permanently or just when watching?
[05:53] <Zombine> GrahamA: So.... I can just install the dynamic link libraries (or whatever they are in Linux) without installing the whole desktop?
[05:53] <Zombine> can't*
[05:53] <rafa> i have an appointment now... i'll come back later to try to solve this problem... Thanks!!

[06:09] <w3hol> hai .. all
[06:09] <endo> it just says that I need to re-install it before I try to remove it
[06:09] <Ashfire908> bulmer, you mean hook up the sharing computer to the wan port on a router?
[06:09] <w3hol> hello endo ... ?
[06:09] <xerophyte> how can i find what kind of connection  do i have to my server .. 100mbs or 10mbs from the server ?
[06:10] <vcool> what xorg version u have ?
[06:10] <hegur1> xerophyte: dmesg | grep eth
[06:10] <w3hol> where u ?
[06:10] <hegur1> xerophyte: there may be some other better way though
[06:10] <jrib> Alejandr0: I really doubt it's normal, but it's broken anyway if a game requires you to run it as root
[06:10] <endo> w3hol: hey
[06:10] <bulmer> Ashfire908: hook up the ppp to the wan port of a router, on the other side you share the pc's
[06:10] <toni_> 1:7.2-5ubuntu10
[06:10] <toni_> version xorg 1:7.2-5ubuntu10
[06:11] <xerophyte> hegur1, what am i looking in the dmesg
[06:11] <Ashfire908> bulmer, uh, you want me to hook up the modem to the wan port? hard to do cause it's a dialup modem
[06:11] <bulmer> Ashfire908: or if your ubuntu is the ppp, have another nic card on your ubuntu, share it to the other clients, and make sure you forward packets on ubuntu
[06:11] <jrib> endo: so do you still have the .deb for virtualbox?
[06:11] <fc> anyone here that can help me with ubuntu proxy settings?

[06:14] <kaptengu> is it possible to see which kernel modules my memory card reader uses?
[06:14] <verb> fc, did you try System>>Preferences>>Network Proxy   ?
[06:14] <bulmer> Ashfire908: well, as i've suggested, make your ubuntu the router (which will do the ppp ) and have another nic card and hub to run dhcp on ubunt to share with other pc's
[06:14] <endo> after I re-install audacious i'll let you know

[06:14] <bluebanana> I have 2 moniters plugged into my video card, and they both show the same thing. How can I have a dual-monitor setup that essentially gives me an expansion of my desktop, if you know what I mean (rather than just 2 duplicates)?
[06:14] <jrib> }}Y2J{{: best to just ask the channel your next question and see if anyone knows the answer
[06:15] <fc> no, the university has a seperate inetkey program where i enter the password

[06:15] <hegur1> kaptengu: dmesg should show you the module name
[06:15] <Ashfire908> bulmer, i really don't want to use the computer as the router. it's actually a rack server and it makes a ton of noise, and most likey uses a lot of power
[06:15] <endo> jrib: It's saying I should check the permissions when I try to install it
[06:16] <karel> is it normal that gnome-panel is using 50% cpu all the time?
[06:16] <jrib> endo: wait, I didn't say install it.  Install it from the terminal with 'sudo dpkg -i /path/to/virtualbox/deb'
[06:16] <vcool> karel: do u run a lot of background process ?
[06:16] <Strang3love> hello all

[06:17] <karel> and just restarted
[06:17] <fc> i know the university mirrors the ubuntu update site internally, but its not on the list of software sources
[06:17] <jrib> }}Y2J{{: messed up how?
[06:17] <Ashfire908> bulmer, could i have the gateway ip be set to the server's ip and get the same result?

[06:17] <verb> fc, tell me whether it worked for you ?
[06:18] <valehru> From the LIve CD, what is the password of the root user?  I need to change some file permissions and do not have the passowrd

[06:19] <Strang3love> i have just received an update for gutsy gibbon and upon reboot i am unable to load any or my partitions, the grub comes up but it is unable to load selected partition.  Does anyone know where to find the config file that indicates the locations in grub (hd0,0) for instance.
[06:19] <erik78s1> I've got 2 identical laptops (packard bell easynote mz35-v-091). One of them kept getting completely stuck once I installed Ubuntu 7.04. I replaced the hardware in the store (the whole thing) - but the same thing occured on the "new" one. I've tried running on "koppix" too, and the same thing happens. It runs winXP (*shrug*) just fine, no lock-ups at all... I'm deep in this shit,
[06:19] <endo> jrib: Thank you! you fixed my problems :D
[06:19] <fc> verb, it didnt work

[06:20] <jrib> }}Y2J{{: sounds like you do not have a specific issue you want to troubleshoot?  You can try creating a new user and seeing if the problems go away.   Or you can backup your data and reinstall

[06:39] <karel> When I watch the cpu graph at resources (system monitor), I see CPU2 constantly around 30%, however, when I check processes (view == all), I only see 5% used (which is what CPU1 uses), so what is that 30% cpu use?
[06:39] <fc> oh, that is za
[06:39] <WoahWoah> ok
[06:39] <erik78s1> Anyone knows if there is a utilty to reduce the RAM-usage after installing a default ubuntu ?
[06:39] <WoahWoah> Thank you for the help btw
[06:39] <Rade> np
[06:39] <USMarine> shelia_ ?
[06:39] <verb> fc, ok now you just replace them as you said with the one ofd your university
[06:39] <shelia_> konsole, is the the command terminal/
[06:39] <erik78s1> ... kind of like "slimming" the installation
[06:39] <WoahWoah> It said "No process killed"!
[06:39] <ndube> erik78s1: why would you want to swap more data...
[06:40] <verb> fc, when you are done tell me
[06:40] <USMarine> shelia_ ye, if you use gnome
[06:40] <erik78s1> I dont want to swap, thats why I need to "stop" some apps from running in the bg
[06:40] <shelia_> ok, i will try that
[06:40] <ndube> what apps?
[06:40] <Rade> erik78sl - My recommendation is to use xubuntu instead if you really need low memory usage, KDE has a big overhead in comparison
[06:40] <erik78s1> I know there is xunbuntu... but anyway
[06:41] <mindframe> what's a good utility to monitor cpu temperature?
[06:41] <USMarine> mindframe ksensors
[06:41] <Rade> Well, you can check out the services manager and turn stuff of
[06:41] <erik78s1> yes, but maybe there is someway to reduce the ubutu thing too... xunbutu is too far stretched for me =)
[06:41] <WoahWoah> services manager?
[06:41] <mindframe> user01, anything in xubuntu?
[06:41] <mindframe> err USMarine, anything in xubuntu?
[06:41] <fc> thanx a million verb, i think it's working now
[06:41] <USMarine> erik78s1 gnome has less features than kde, still it uses the sames resources
[06:42] <USMarine> mindframe nop, i never touched that in my life
[06:42] <verb> fc, did you update your system properly
[06:42] <verb> ?
[06:42] <Rade> Ever since upgrading (full re-install) to Feisty I've had a problem with my network connection.  Pages won't load the first time, I have to refresh multiple times to get the page, stylesheets, etc.
[06:42] <verb> fc, I mean succeeded in doing that?
[06:42] <endo> I need to un-install audacious, what's the command?
[06:43] <Rade> apt-get remove audacious
[06:43] <USMarine> endo apt-get remove package
[06:43] <Rade> well, sudo apt...
[06:43] <endo> oh, it is apt-get
[06:43] <endo> ok
[06:43] <fc> i saved that file and when i go to add programs it actually downloads the new list
[06:43] <erik78s1> ... or "sudo aptitude remove <packagename>"
[06:43] <fc> and it says new updates available
[06:43] <Rade> is aptitude and apt-get the same thing?
[06:43] <verb> fc, so you've noticed that he discovered the new list right?
[06:44] <fc> yes
[06:44] <verb> fc, good
[06:44] <verb> :)
[06:44] <faust_> Rade, they split ages ago. apt-get was created to test new features for aptitude.
[06:44] <endo> brb, gotta restart
[06:44] <fc> thanx so much
[06:44] <faust_> These days, apt-get is deprecated. Even Debian has gone back to aptitude.
[06:44] <WoahWoah> None of the processes seemed to have been stopped...
[06:44] <faust_> Some apt-get features are missing, but all essential features are working the same way in aptitude as in apt-get.
[06:45] <verb> fc, no problem .....in fact this exact problem was thw same one I've had when I first used ubuntu ...Good luck :)

[07:15] <hbons_> hi
[07:15] <bluebanana> Should I use xinerama or bigdesktop?
[07:15] <ArmedKing> bluebanana: Then i should advise Xinerama
[07:15] <ArmedKing> bluebanana: Your taskbar remains on your main screen and the other monitor is just extra space
[07:16] <bluebanana> ArmedKing: I believe you are wrong about Nvidia's TwinView. Though it may sound like all it does is give you 2 exact clones, twinview doesn't just do that. It allows you to do more: http://www.nvidia.com/object/feature_twinview.html
[07:16] <ckh> does anyone has any experience with the Hula Project? and; is there any softwarepackage for it in Ubuntu?

[07:17] <mooper> mboldisc yes I did

[07:19] <scaldov> network 54 Mb, it lasts about 15-20 secs
[07:19] <Ubuntu-Virgin> and gedit is a program to actually edit the file
[07:19] <hmhowie> scaldov: how long does it take to answer a ping?
[07:19] <bluebanana> In a square formation. 2 across, 2 down.
[07:19] <ArmedKing> bluebanana: Prob yes i have SLI connected Nvidia cards so i actualy have 4 Monitor Connectors :p

[07:20] <Johnson> anyone know whi can do to fix it?
[07:20] <bluebanana> ArmedKing: and one of those cards in your pc is simply to allow 2 more video outputs?

[07:22] <DoYouKnow> I may have figured it out...
[07:22] <scaldov> hmhowie, No, mothership runs opensuse10.2, and my wife's notebook I'm now typing runs ubuntu FF

[07:23] <hmhowie> scaldov: a-ha. i once had this problem with an opensuse distribution. i've forgotten why it was... let me see what i can find out...

[07:27] <Usrl_> Can someone please recommend me a torrent client? Azureus works with encryption on, but it randomly crashes which makes it completely unusable. Everything else I've tried doesn't even work. I'm on comcast, and I know they block bittorrent upload traffic, which is why I need the encyrption
[07:27] <heguru> orangefly: and with KVM (if you have a new processor) its much faster as well
[07:27] <Usrl_> So does anyone have any ideas for a client that might WORK?
[07:27] <matux> I can play sounds, but I can't record them
[07:27] <mooper> Usrl_: ktorrent
[07:27] <MasterShrek> Usrl_, transmission, or utorrent with wine

[07:34] <heguru> matux: System -> preference -> Sound, then click at Sounds and uncheck "Enable software sound mixing (ESD)"

[07:44] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> I would be very suprised if that were true ^^
[07:44] <Pelo> roid, it would be a little sitty and defeate the purpose of passwords
[07:44] <roid> ok cool, i just installed and wanted to be sure, i heard rumors

[07:46] <Pelo> fei,  what is wrong ?
[07:46] <scaldov> hmhowie Can I paste config to you?
[07:46] <endo> Pelo: fine
[07:46] <verb> koer, he meant / did you change the repositories
[07:46] <koer> dont think so
[07:46] <fei_> 
[07:46] <heguru> koer: are you using feisty? or gutsy?
[07:46] <Pelo> endo,  basicaly if you have to ask how/where to manualy edit a file you are probably safer using a dialog box
[07:47] <hmhowie> scaldov: i doubt i can help, if it's a configuration problem. have a look at the routing as well on both computers ("route")
[07:47] <koer> feisty
[07:47] <verb> heguru, he said feisty
[07:47] <Tohru> anyone know how i can restore windows boot sector using ubuntu terminal?
[07:47] <verb> Tohru, you mean boot loader?
[07:48] <ckh> Tohru, you should look into the coroners tool kit they have all the tools needed to perform that type of operation
[07:48] <Tohru> verb: if that is what can fix windows to boot then yes :)
[07:48] <heguru> koer: ok your application requires libc6 2.6 while the one that comes with feisty is 2.5
[07:48] <Tohru> ckh: where can i find that please?
[07:48] <koer> so that marked update isnt for feisty ?
[07:48] <heguru> koer: you must have configured a non feisty repository
[07:48] <Pelo> Tohru, did you uninstall ubuntu and need to restore windows mbr ?
[07:48] <verb> Tohru, didn't you get windows listed in the grub loader?
[07:49] <endo> Pelo: I know what you mean, I just have the hardest time remembering the command
[07:49] <koer> how can i change that config ?
[07:49] <Tohru> Pelo: yes thats exactly what i did :)
[07:49] <heguru> koer: verify your repositories System -> Administration -> software sources
[07:49] <verb> Tohru, fdisk /mbr I think
[07:49] <Tohru> verb:  what i wanted to do was uninstall ubuntu and restore windows
[07:49] <heguru> koer: try to uncheck all 3rd party repositories, and reload in synaptic and try again
[07:49] <Pelo> Tohru, just google for restoring windows mbr and you should find some howto
[07:49] <Tohru> verb: in terminal?
[07:49] <verb> Tohru,
[07:49] <koer> okay
[07:49] <verb> Tohru, no
[07:50] <scaldov> hmhowie, Oh, routing works well. When I get connected, I issue scp command to copy a file, and it shows speed at 3.8MB/s
[07:50] <koer> yes i did mess with this 3rd party sources yesterady hahah
[07:50] <Pelo> Tohru,  it won'T be  something you do with the ubuntu cd,  you'll be using the windows install cd
[07:50] <verb> Tohru, google "windows mbr"
[07:50] <heguru> Tohru: do this from a windows boot cd in rescue mode: fdisk /mbr
[07:50] <Pelo> Tohru,  you can also try asking in ##windows
[07:50] <ashu> will firestarter keep running in the background once i install it?
[07:50] <Tohru> verb: well thats the rpoblem, i cant boot into windows. im having grub loading issues
[07:50] <h08817> i just burned the image of 7.04 on two cds and i did the check cd for defects and I keep getting this error on both cds failed MD5 checksum
[07:50] <Merlin--> hi guys If i have a question about transparent proxying on what channel should I ask it
[07:50] <K-Rich> Is anyone here familiar with Firestarter ?
[07:51] <heguru> Tohru: it will fix windows, but you wont be able to boot into linux
[07:51] <Pelo> ashu,  firestarter is just a gui frontend,    netfilter and iptable are the firewall stuff and they are always running
[07:51] <heguru> K-Rich: ask your question
[07:51] <koer> now it wont show any updates
[07:51] <Tohru> verb: i tried restoring boot sector in terminal but terminal say unknown HD =/
[07:51] <verb> Tohru, So you really want ubuntu with windows but couldn't ?
[07:51] <narothepharoh> I guess thats why noone answers because nobody knows anything
[07:51] <Pelo> K-Rich, see comment to ashu
[07:51] <Tohru> heguru: thats fine for now :) i jus need to boot into windows for my family to use
[07:51] <K-Rich> Pelo: I know this i'm trying to figure out how to use wildcards
[07:51] <ashu> Pelo: so my firewall was active evn b4 i got firestarter?
[07:51] <Tohru> heguru: i still got ubunto on the family laptop :)
[07:51] <Pelo> narothepharoh, some questions get lost in the trafic , repeat occasionnaly
[07:51] <koer> okay i think that fixed it
[07:52] <Pelo> ashu,  active but empty
[07:52] <narothepharoh> pelo how are you
[07:52] <heguru> Tohru: if you installed ubuntu right, you will have windows on the GRUB boot menu, which you can access by pressing Escape at Boot
[07:52] <ashu> Pelo: empty?  :?
[07:52] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  otherwise busy, do you have a query
[07:52] <scraliontis> thats good exposing the family to an opens sytem like linux, ie ubuntu
[07:52] <Pelo> ashu,  no rules in it
[07:52] <Xerostyle> MasterShrek: It's a broadcom wireless card.
[07:52] <verb> Tohru, heguru  is right
[07:52] <Tohru> heguru: what i did was deleted the ubuntu partitions, now i cant boot into anything
[07:52] <Pelo> ashu, open a terminal and type   iptables -L
[07:53] <ashu> Pelo: anyway now that i have firestarter, has iptables rules?
[07:53] <Tohru> verb: what i did was deleted the ubuntu partitions, now i cant boot into anything
[07:53] <narothepharoh> no offense just have asked a few questions lately and for the past week or so ive not been getting many responses ive posted numerous times
[07:53] <Pelo> ashu,  firestarted is just a gui frontend,  it can make rules if you tell it to
[07:53] <verb> Tohru, then you have to search google for "windows mbr" and it's not difficult
[07:53] <h08817> Has there been an updated version of 7.04 uploaded onto the site since june 28th?
[07:53] <heguru> ashu: firestarter creates iptables rules for you, to check what rules firestarter created run: sudo iptables -L
[07:54] <Tohru> verb:  problem is to use fixmbr i need to boot into windows which i cannot :(
[07:54] <scaldov> sshfs package is too old. Is it normal If I compile new one from sources?
[07:54] <verb> Tohru, use the windows install CD
[07:54] <koer> yeeeessssss!!!
[07:54] <ashu> Pelo: heguru: so is there any need to include firestarter in the auto-start list?
[07:54] <koer> it worked!!!
[07:54] <heguru> Tohru: you can boot into recovery console using XP cd
[07:54] <K-Rich> Pelo: how do i set the rule with wildcards with firestarted (say i want to block 198.127.0.1 through 198.127.255.255)
[07:54] <Pelo> narothepharoh,  the skill set of the channel changes with the members attending,  you sometimes need to be patient,  you can also search in www.ubuntuforums.org for info
[07:54] <koer> thanks too all of you who helped :D

[07:54] <mrga_cro> why is linux windows connection so slow
[07:54] <Pelo> ashu,  no you don't need to put firestarted in the startup list
[07:55] <heguru> ashu: yes, iptables rules are not persistent, they are lost on reboots, so firestarter should run on every reboot to recreate them
[07:55] <verb> Tohru, the windows terminal if you want to call it that
[07:55] <Pelo> K-Rich,  I don,t know ,  myabe  yu can try asking in #firestarter

[07:56] <Pelo> K-Rich,  there is a firestarter website with a manual    look for it on google

[07:59] <heguru> Merlin--: ask your question
[07:59] <BMT> is there a way to find out my WLAN address ( on my wireless router) using terminal
[08:00] <curious101> andy_, you can also go to /usr/src to verify
[08:00] <nanonyme> you mean mac?
[08:00] <curious101> iwconfig
[08:00] <Pelo> MinuteElectron, that will restart x and give you another login ,
[08:00] <scaldov> BMT, iwlist scan
[08:00] <Merlin--> i need someone to check the  routing script im working on for transparent proxying on squid
[08:00] <davee> I've just received a follow-up on a couple of Launchpad bugs from 'Launchpad Janitor' saying "Expired for <application> because there has been no activity for 60 days".  All bugs have recent (< 2 weeks) comments.  Anyone know what that's about?

[08:00] <Pelo> Merlin--,  try asking in #networking
[08:00] <heguru> Merlin--: paste the script and i will check it
[08:01] <scaldov> BMT, this will scan ether for access points and print out their ESSIDs
[08:01] <kbrooks> MinuteElectron, indirectly.

[08:01] <K-Rich> heguru: i responded in #firestarter
[08:01] <MinuteElectron> kbrooks: cool
[08:01] <BMT> is wlan0 my wireless router ?
[08:01] <kbrooks> MinuteElectron, gnome and xfce use gtk. kde use qr.
[08:01] <MasterShrek> BMT, it should be your wireless card
[08:01] <Pelo> Dave123, I think you can safely ignore them
[08:01] <BMT> i want to find out the ip address of the wlan
[08:01] <kbrooks> mindrape, er, qt

[08:01] <fogobogo> Whats ssh and how can i use it? does anybody know a good link or so? do i have to run a server for that?
[08:01] <MinuteElectron> kbrooks: heh
[08:01] <BMT> i know i could very well go into the router...but i figured terminal was powerful enough to do it for me
[08:01] <kbrooks> mindrape, sry
[08:01] <curious101> BMT, it's your wireless card, not the router
[08:01] <scaldov> BMT what mode does it run?
[08:02] <MasterShrek> BMT, ifconfig
[08:02] <Merlin--> or maybe refer me to a script that will do so ?

[08:03] <Frustrated> It ends up having 0 bytes free data with 0 bytes used
[08:04] <Rainarrow> Hello, my Ubuntu suddenly went no sound after I exited a instance of dosbox
[08:04] <Frustrated> Someone experienced this same problem and found an answer?
[08:04] <BMT> scaldov, i dont want  configre my "wireless" care....i just want to see if terminal can tell me what my external ip address is from my router
[08:04] <Rainarrow> After restarting the problem persists
[08:04] <BMT> care - card
[08:04] <verb> Frustrated, are you sure the ISO is not corrupt
[08:04] <scaldov> aa. well. ifconfig
[08:04] <scaldov> it will print all info including IP
[08:05] <Rainarrow> The machine is a Thinkpad T40, and the sound device is Intel 82801DB-ICH4
[08:05] <MasterShrek> i dunno DocTomoe thats really strange
[08:05] <Rainarrow> I'm using ALSA sound drivers
[08:05] <Frustrated> verb: I am pretty sure it is not corrupted. My father burned an Ubuntu install CD earlier (I cannot find it anymore) and he had a similar problem but he solved it by some trick and I guess he does not remember how
[08:05] <Xerostyle> sorry MasterShrek, I have no clue. How do I find out?
[08:05] <Rainarrow> anyone could help?
[08:05] <lastent> how can I change the DNS from the terminal?

[08:05] <georo> @Mp3Q8.Us V1.0 By, Mp3Q8.Us Team
[08:06] <predaeus> Rainarrow, check alsamixer settings and switches.
[08:06] <verb> Frustrated, Did you just copy/paste the ISO or used the "burn ISO" wizard
[08:06] <DocTomoe> Funny thing is: it worked great on the intel32 system I had before, but refuses to do at AMD64
[08:06] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> have you tried downloading from another source @ frustrated
[08:06] <Frustrated> I ran Nero and chose the CD image burn option
[08:06] <georo> can some one help me
[08:06] <Frustrated> I am pretty sure it is not corrupted.
[08:06] <MasterShrek> DocTomoe, is it a 32-bit binary?
[08:06] <Haru> verb, hes getting 0 bytes, apparantly either his iso is bad or his burner is bad
[08:06] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> and did you slow down the burn process to 8x ? @ frustrated ?
[08:06] <MasterShrek> DocTomoe, try   linux32 [filename] 
[08:06] <BMT> is anyone here totally "linux_dependent"....i mean doesn't use windows for anything ? !
[08:06] <Frustrated> It was x 10
[08:07] <georo> hi a have some problem my desktop did`t work and loading
[08:07] <Rainarrow> predaeus, even if I click test in the Multimedia System Selector or the Pref->Sound, there is still no sound
[08:07] <Frustrated> x 10 and x 4 were the only options the program offered
[08:07] <andy_> I have a problem with the nvidia driver, I've followed this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368  Now when I install the nvidia drivers and are restarting the xserver I get: the xserver is not configured correctly blabla, So it won't let me get into gdm/start the xserver. I've checked the xserver error report and it says that my nvidia-kernel module aint matching with my nvidia driver. How should I fix this?
[08:07] <BMT> MasterShrek, how long did it take you to get to this point....i am currently trying to achieve this goal
[08:07] <MasterShrek> andy_, recompile the driver?
[08:07] <heguru> BMT: I don't use windows at all
[08:07] <xerxe> andy, try envy!
[08:07] <Rainarrow> the sound has worked perfectly before
[08:07] <Rade> BMT: I am at home, work requires windows (though not for any reason regarding my job)
[08:07] <predaeus> Rainarrow, run alsamixer and check the settings, switch tabs with the TAB key. Exit with ESC.
[08:07] <BMT> heguru, what about you....same question
[08:08] <andy_> by recompile you mean? :x
[08:08] <andy_> Just got ubuntu
[08:08] <predaeus> Rainarrow, in a terminal.
[08:08] <Frustrated> So is it that I must not use x 10?
[08:08] <BMT> rade....also to you same question
[08:08] <MasterShrek> BMT, depends, how much time you put into it
[08:08] <Xerostyle> it
[08:08] <predaeus> DocTomoe, hm try running it like "linux32 appname"
[08:08] <verb> Frustrated, ok then you need to check the md5sum (the best way to check the integrity of a file) wait a sec ...I'll give you the tool
[08:08] <Xerostyle> it's a 1390
[08:08] <Rade> BMT: It took about 6 months
[08:08] <andyrug> !envy
[08:08] <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!
[08:08] <Rainarrow> predaeus, the results is same as the volume control in the notify area
[08:08] <georo> hi a have some problem my desktop did`t work and loading
[08:08] <verb> Frustrated, using 4x is preferred but not required
[08:08] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> I dont know, I doubt that that will make much of a difference... It was just a thought to slow down the bruning speed... but 10x should be fine
[08:08] <verb> Frustrated, wait a sec
[08:08] <dgjones> BMT, my wifes got a dual boot XP machine, the win xp gets used for 90 minutes every other week, other than that our house is ubuntu only
[08:08] <andy_> Ah btw, when i install the driver it says it doesn't find any kernel so it tries to look it up on nvidias website, but it doesn't find any matching kernel there either. So the next step the installer does is "do you want us to compile a driver blabla"
[08:08] <Rainarrow> Master, Master Mono, Headphone is set to 70
[08:09] <andy_> and i said yes
[08:09] <Rainarrow> and PCM
[08:09] <BMT> MasterShrek, i am currently working on trying to become a java developer.....and part of my goal is to totally becoming "windows-free"
[08:09] <andy_> still, it says the kernel module aint matching with my driver
[08:09] <Rainarrow> I intentionally turned off the MIC and Line in
[08:09] <DocTomoe> MasterShrek / predaeus: negative, linux32 does not do the trick, same error ("ysflight cannot be found"). Also tried linux32 ./ysflight
[08:09] <heguru> BMT: as a java developer, you will never miss windows :)
[08:09] <Rade> BMT: I'm a java developer... using Eclipse, Tomcat, etc... no windows required.
[08:09] <BMT> MasterShrek, i only want to use linux and unix....nothing else....maybe macs..if i ever get the money together
[08:09] <Rade> I think IntelliJ is also cross platform, lots of people like that
[08:10] <BMT> rade, i need to talk to you in private chat if that is possible
[08:10] <verb> Frustrated, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[08:10] <BMT> heguru, i agree
[08:10] <Rainarrow> predaeus, the sound worked perfectly before, today I played some old DOS game with dosbox
[08:10] <Rade> If you want, I am an irc newb, so I dunno how to private chat
[08:10] <MasterShrek> BMT, anyone can become windows-free, its just a matter of finding programs that do what you want, and living with the fact that most games wont be playable under linux
[08:10] <Rainarrow> predaeus, and upon exit I noticed the sound went out
[08:10] <Ubuntu-got-lucky> yeah md5 is a good idea!
[08:10] <Frustrated> Verb: Thanks, I'll see if that helps
[08:10] <wastrel> irc
[08:10] <Rainarrow> predaeus, after restart and playing various settings, the problem persists
[08:11] <verb> Frustrated, this tool let's you know weather your ISO is correct or corrupt
[08:11] <verb> Frustrated, for windows
[08:11] <heguru> Rainarrow: try to do this: mv ~/.asoundrc ~/.asoundrc.bak
[08:11] <BMT> MasterShrek, i don't get into the game too much...if i do ...it is console gaming
[08:11] <heguru> Rainarrow: restart alsa
[08:11] <heguru> Rainarrow: try playing sound
[08:11] <Frustrated> Oh, ok
[08:11] <madnewbie> BMT: iwconfig?
[08:11] <Frustrated> And what if it is not corrupted?
[08:11] <Rainarrow> heguru, I have no .asoundrc in my home directory
[08:12] <heguru> Rainarrow: do you have /etc/asound.conf ? if yes rename that to bak as well
[08:12] <MasterShrek> Xerostyle, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/1390
[08:12] <verb> Frustrated, if the problem is that the file is corrupt , you may want to download the ISO from bittorrent, because it automatically checks md5sum....if the ISO is correct but you still has the problem ...come here and tell us :)
[08:12] <Rainarrow> heguru, ok that's done, now how do I restart ALSA?
[08:12] <RogerBacon> does anyone know an utilities that can format any hard drive from an usb device ? (I will put my HDD on a ipod and boot on rescue mod), im on windows btw, but i can use ubuntu.
[08:12] <Frustrated> OK, thx for the help
[08:12] <heguru> Rainarrow: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[08:12] <MasterShrek> BMT, you should be fine, especially if u are computer savvy enough to program java, itll just take some time to figure out how things in linux work, once u do, youll wish you have made the switch sooner
[08:13] <se-agapo> is it any programs like the programs of stardock to use ?
[08:13] <heguru> Rainarrow: if that doesn work, you may have to restart :(
[08:13] <fogobogo> verb sooo.... i need to run a server for ssh?
[08:13] <MasterShrek> se-agapo, you dont need those programs, everything in linux is customizable out of the box
[08:13] <verb> fogobogo, on ubuntu or on windows?>
[08:13] <Rainarrow> heguru, seems it did restart ALSA for me
[08:13] <heguru> Rainarrow: can you play sounds?
[08:14] <Rainarrow> heguru, I see the shutting down ALSA/starting up ALSA message in my terminal
[08:14] <Rainarrow> however there is still no sound

[08:18] <verb> fogobogo, it depends ....but you can use the host name instead (computer name)
[08:18] <Frustrated> Is that a code that is used to identify the content?
[08:18] <verb> Frustrated, ok ...tell me the complete name of the ISO you downloaded

[08:25] <h08817> verb, im downloading the alternate 7.04 because I need to textually install my video card since it is too old for 7.04 and doesn't support it. Would you think azureus would have the alternative install?

[08:27] <GBenemy> both
[08:27] <GBenemy> fish and chips mainly
[08:27] <mete_888> yes, I was there 3-4 weeks in my holidays
[08:27] <Ignite> It depends on where you go really. Some places make the chips taste like rubber.

[08:27] <heguru> MrPink: well i would use ATI drivers for that
[08:27] <mete_888> GBenemy, noup, I only understand a little bit italian
[08:27] <heguru> MrPink: ATI drivers = restricted drivers
[08:27] <Frustrated> verb: Should I maybe try re-burning with the 4 x speed?
[08:27] <MrPink> after the install it was working fine... Desktop Effects and resolution... then I screwed up the xorg.config and I had to manually chose from a List... and it didn't automatically install the drivers, I had to chose restricted ATI drivers

[08:29] <heguru> Rainarrow: good :)
[08:29] <curious101> hi, anybody have used swat? how do you start the service?
[08:30] <Rainarrow> heguru, however it seems my wireless card went out..
[08:30] <|thunder> pvl1; python with a little gtk i think
[08:30] <verb> Frustrated, ok then try and see if you can boot from it (don't forget to change the boot order to boot from CD drive first)
[08:30] <Rainarrow> heguru, I mean the wireless NIC
[08:30] <heguru> curious101: swat has to be started using inetd (or xinted)
[08:30] <h08817> Currently I have the 5.04 release installed (yes I am well aware it is old and unsupported) but, is it possible that it supports wpa encryption for my wireless connection? In the settings it only says wep
[08:30] <verb> Frustrated, try at 4x
[08:30] <Frustrated> OK
[08:30] <pvl1> I thunder, thanks
[08:30] <MrPink> argh... how do you register with IRC channels again? lol

[08:31] <wastrel> ubuntu_:  what's the drive number?  /dev/sdXX  ?
[08:31] <heguru> Rainarrow: ok
[08:31] <ubuntu_> um sorry its a bit fast wait
[08:31] <Rainarrow> heguru, thanks a lot, but does turning off ESD affect my other applications?
[08:31] <ubuntu_> should be 2
[08:31] <Frustrated> Btw, while I rewrite the stuff I'd like to ask another question... They say that Linux has pretty poor support for certain graphics cards
[08:31] <verb> h08817, look for the official torrents...you will find official torrent files in the download pages here .....don't look in other torrent site..
[08:31] <BMT2> hello

[08:32] <verb> verb, I meant ubuntu.com by the word here :)
[08:32] <verb> h08817,, I meant ubuntu.com by the word here :)
[08:32] <heguru> Rainarrow: well 99% of new applications support alsa, ESD is a thing of the past i would say. I guess only Gnome sounds (startup and all) use them now, if you need them you can stil configure esd to run with -terminate
[08:32] <Frustrated> Verb: Btw, I also found 8 x speed. Is that a better choice than 4 x?
[08:32] <ubuntu_> all pictures are here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=557012
[08:32] <bluefox83> Frustrated, that's currently correct, but that's changing very shortly as ATI has announced they are going to be stepping up their linux driver support
[08:32] <verb> Frustrated, the lower the safer
[08:32] <h08817> verb, what am I supposed to do? I have azureus open, you want me to set it to download the release from ubuntu.com?
[08:32] <Frustrated> I heard something about some drivers becoming open source or something
[08:32] <wastrel> ubuntu_: boot into recovery mode and see if you can mount /dev/sda2      mount /dev/sda2 /home
[08:33] <ubuntu_> ok
[08:33] <verb> h08817, no
[08:33] <ubuntu_> sorry how do i mount
[08:33] <wastrel> ubuntu_: if that works you just need to fix /etc/fstab  for /dev/sda2
[08:33] <crimsun> heguru: by default esound releases the default audio device after 1 idle second.  It has been that way for four Ubuntu releases. :)
[08:33] <Iradigalesc> Hello! Can I run screen with a command and detach it automatically? I would like to implement it in a shell script; so I can only have it in 1 line...

[08:36] <verb> Frustrated, heh :)
[08:36] <heguru> psgrewal: you can use snort, its available in the repository
[08:36] <Frustrated> I wonder if it is somehow related to the fact that the burning process failed badly last time
[08:36] <crimsun> heguru: there's work to remove the esound dependency from libgnome.  It's in the pulse roadmap portion of gnome's dev pages.
[08:36] <Malachi> How can I change my Remote Desktop password through the terminal?
[08:36] <psgrewal> thanks

[08:37] <Frustrated> Sounds good
[08:37] <wastrel> ubuntu_: ok first make a backup copy  cp /etc/fstab  ~/fstab.bak
[08:38] <heguru> Rainarrow: hmm, well what applications are you using?
[08:38] <heguru> Rainarrow: some applications will lock the sound device irrespective of ESD
[08:38] <verb> Frustrated, it's open source :)   (open-source goodies)

[08:38] <Frustrated> Nero failed to do that in the case of the failure CD
[08:38] <Rainarrow> heguru, I tested with mpg123 and beep-media-player

[08:39] <h08817> verb, 3.0.3.0
[08:39] <wastrel> ubuntu_: then  nano /etc/fstab   and change the line for your /home   (find the line with "/home" on it) and delete the part that says UUID=<long number> , replace it with "/dev/sda2" (if sda2 is where your homedirs are, and it mounts ok when you try it manually)
[08:39] <verb> Frustrated, yes it can ( we call it Blank a CD-RW or erase a CD-RW)
[08:39] <Rainarrow> heguru, I started mpg123 first, then when I try to play another mp3 with bmp it gives me a "can't open sound" error
[08:39] <verb> h08817, The version number 3 is the worst

[08:44] <h08817> verb, now i just have to do a search

[08:44] <verb> h08817, no
[08:44] <h08817> verb, then where do i download the file from?
[08:44] <verb> h08817, wait I;ll give you the torrent file

[08:46] <h08817> verb, how is this? releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent
[08:46] <Frustrated> Does that come with the default package?
[08:46] <Kanuha> jetscreamer, thx, I did not install it yet, but thinking about it because it supports boot images. I know grub does as well, but was thinking of upgrading
[08:46] <heguru> Rainarrow: i mean some program when run as root, can modify files in /etc without you knowing, i don't know if dosbox would do that though

[08:48] <BMT2> .rar files are not supported in linux ?
[08:48] <verb> h08817, hope so....and it shouldn't ....how's the download speed?
[08:48] <peepsalot> is there a gui terminal software that will "unwrap" lines that have already been written when you resize the window?
[08:48] <Rainarrow> heguru, someone in this chatroom suggested me to just stick with the generic one
[08:48] <verb> Frustrated, what's new?
[08:48] <Pelo> BMT2,  sudo apt-get install unrar
[08:48] <stonebear> Hi
[08:48] <ubuntu_> bye
[08:48] <Frustrated> Well, I am currently erasing another disc to make sure that it is empty
[08:49] <h08817> verb, 840 and above
[08:49] <mete_888> so, I'm afk
[08:49] <jetscreamer> BMT2: of course they are?
[08:49] <Frustrated> Then I'll try burning the ISO again
[08:49] <jetscreamer> chatroom?
[08:49] <Pelo> jetscreamer,  not out of the box
[08:49] <Frustrated> I have kind of bad memories of Nero now :/
[08:49] <Frustrated> It has failed me before as well
[08:49] <jetscreamer> well you have to actually install some programs... :o
[08:49] <stonebear> Anyone know if the newest release comes with samba?
[08:49] <verb> h08817, good :)   you don't usually get this speed with other torrent files (games, etc)
[08:49] <Pelo> Frustrated, burn at very low speed
[08:49] <Frustrated> OK
[08:50] <jetscreamer> they all come with samba if you install it
[08:50] <Rainarrow> heguru, is that true? that CPU-specific kernel is useless now
[08:50] <h08817> verb, yeah i know im quite surprised at the number of seeders
[08:50] <javabugz> is there any special requirement to get Fiesty/Gusty to use gigabit speed on my forcedeth device?  it works fine with Gentoo
[08:50] <koudelka_> if i want to install new icons, which folder should i put the icons in?
[08:50] <verb> h08817, the ubuntu community is one of the best out there :)
[08:50] <Pelo> javabugz, look it up in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[08:51] <BMT2> jetscreamer, my ubuntu is telling me .rar is not supported
[08:51] <h08817> verb, yes it is and best of all open-source
[08:51] <Humpy> Anyone know a lot about the CD install files for Ubuntu 7.04?
[08:51] <macd> javabugz, are you familiar with ethtool?
[08:51] <verb> Pelo,  hehe ...that's right :)
[08:51] <MrPink> hmm I tried "sudo dpfkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" but that doesnt have ubuntu recognise and install the drivers automatically, but I have to choose the graphics driver from a list of manufacturers.... any other Idea of how to have the Hardware recognition from the installation be run again ?
[08:51] <Pelo> Humpy,  specific questions are easier to answer
[08:51] <h08817> verb, does 7.04 support wpa encryption? or do I have to download something special for that?
[08:52] <heguru> Rainarrow: sorry was away
[08:52] <verb> h08817, I think it does
[08:52] <Pelo> MrPink, do you knwo what your video card is ?  if not use vesa
[08:52] <Rainarrow> heguru, np :)
[08:52] <heguru> Rainarrow: CPU specific kernels do help, but negligible advantage on end-user machines
[08:52] <Humpy> Is it possible to install Ubuntu from CD starting at a DOS prompt?
[08:52] <MrPink> yes I have a ATI 9600 Pro
[08:52] <heguru> Rainarrow: on server however its a different story
[08:52] <verb> Frustrated, hopefully it no longer complains about missing the CD ?
[08:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Sorry people, having a brain fart day.  I want to make a launcher for sauerbraten.  I can get to it from terminal with cd sauerbraten and then ./sauerbraten_unix -w1280 -h960... what is the correct syntax to make one command line for the launcher...?
[08:52] <h08817> verb, good
[08:52] <javabugz> macd..yes
[08:52] <Pelo> Humpy,  you need the alternate install cd or  the install dvd
[08:53] <javabugz> it listed the 1000baseT as supported
[08:53] <macd> javabugz, you could add a line something like: 'pre-up /usr/sbin/ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000' to /etc/network/interfaces
[08:53] <javabugz> i guess i can force it to 1000baset using sudo ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 duplex full autoneg of
[08:53] <MrPink> any ideas now that you know its a 9600 pro @ Pelo ?
[08:53] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow,  what'S the command line to start it from the terminal same thing
[08:53] <jetscreamer> BMT2: some winrar3 format isn't supported by the default rar... but iirc there is a version that will do that format,but not positive
[08:53] <heguru> MrPink: for ATI 9600 just install fglrx-kernel
[08:53] <javabugz> but just want to understand why the negotiation failed
[08:54] <macd> javabugz, adding it to /etc/network/interfaces makes it a perm change.
[08:54] <MrPink> is that like: xgl  ?
[08:54] <Frustrated> Verb: I think that was caused by the broken CD
[08:54] <Rainarrow> heguru, ok I see, but I guess on servers won't a specifically compiled kernel do even better?
[08:54] <Pelo> MrPink,  is that an intel chip ?  company is more usefull to me,  I'm not great with hardware
[08:54] <macd> javabugz, dmesg, and syslog can help you to understand what went wrong.
[08:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: I thought it needed the cd sauerbraten
[08:54] <maney> hmmm.... the web site seems to have been deranged completely since last time I needed to find anything.  got Gutsy sort of up on a Compaq C560 laptop, seems to be totally lost about the 945GM video (only suggests i810 driver, which refuses to run at 1280x800, so the screen kind of sucks). and other stuff
[08:54] <heguru> MrPink: and then run aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:54] <javabugz> there is nothing in dmesg
[08:54] <Humpy> Pelo, where can I get the alternate CD?
[08:54] <Pelo> Humpy,  I don,t allow private msg, please talk to me in the channel
[08:54] <javabugz> same as syslog
[08:54] <javabugz> it just picked 100 instead of 1000
[08:54] <Frustrated> Verb: Uh, this open source thingy offers 1 x writing speed... doesn't that take a bit long?
[08:54] <Pelo> Humpy,  from the ubuntu.com site just check box under the download now button
[08:55] <YBH_1> How do I install Ubuntu on my commodore 64?
[08:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: I now type in two commands, I want either a seperator for the command line or syntax including the path
[08:55] <MrPink> how do I install fglrx-kernel ?
[08:55] <Pelo> YBH_1, firt you need to transfer from the cd to 164 magnetic tapes
[08:55] <verb> Frustrated, it does but gives the best result(you should have chosen a faster one...but no problem :)   )
[08:55] <heguru> MrPink: sudo apt-get install fglrx-kernel
[08:55] <Frustrated> It is actually possible to install Ubuntu on Commodore? Whoa... O_o
[08:55] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow,  && I beleive is the seperator
[08:55] <Frustrated> Verb: I did not start yet
[08:55] <Frustrated> So should I go with the 4 x instead?
[08:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: will try that .. thanks
[08:56] <Pelo> Frustrated,  as low as you can
[08:56] <verb> Frustrated, yes if you are in a hurry
[08:56] <MrPink> ok I will try that heguru thanks
[08:56] <Frustrated> Oh, well, I guess I do not have any more CDs to waste so I go with 1 x
[08:56] <Humpy> Pelo, so I should be able to load the alternate one from DOS?
[08:56] <verb> Frustrated, but lower ids better as I told you
[08:56] <Frustrated> During that I'll copy all those 1337 files I want to preserve
[08:56] <verb> is*
[08:57] <Frustrated> What are these option checkbox things here?
[08:57] <Pelo> Humpy,  you'll boot the alternate install cd, and from the menu you wil have command line options or you can also use the text based installer
[08:57] <Pelo> Frustrated, whut ?
[08:57] <MrPink> @heguru  E:  "Couldn't find package fglrx-kernel"
[08:57] <Frustrated> "Simulation" "Buffer overrun protection" "Pad Data Tracks" and "Fixate disc after writing"
[08:57] <heguru> Rainarrow: on servers i prefer CPU specific kernels, i usually end up compiling my own though
[08:57] <Pelo> Frustrated,  if you don'T know what they mean, leave them alone
[08:57] <lovingyou> hello
[08:58] <Pelo> Frustrated,  and you are burning an imaghe, not  burning data , get out of there now
[08:58] <heguru> Rainarrow: but again, only on high-end servers where every bit of performance matters
[08:58] <Pelo> hello lovingyou
[08:58] <Frustrated> Uh...?
[08:58] <Rainarrow> heguru, ok I see, thanks for your patience :P
[08:58] <Humpy> Pelo, I can't get my PC to boot from CD, I had to load DOS to get it to see the CD
[08:58] <Frustrated> Pelo: What do you actually mean?
[08:58] <MrPink> heguru ?
[08:58] <rothchild> Hi can anyone tell me how I switch my input devices between 2 different xservers (ie my monitor on vga and the the TV on svhs)
[08:58] <lovingyou> Anyone know where are the PHP logs on Ubuntu ?
[08:58] <Frustrated> Did I choose something wrong?
[08:58] <macd> doesnt gnome have right click to burn isos
[08:59] <Pelo> Frustrated, you want to burn an iso file ? that is a cd image, you do not copy it to a cd like files,  you need to "burn image" , look around your menus for that option
[08:59] <rothchild> I've used this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOut
[08:59] <georo> hi a have some problem my desktop did`t work and loading?
[08:59] <Frustrated> OK
[08:59] <heguru> MrPink: try: sudo apt-get instaoo xorg-driver-fglrx
[08:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: right cligh... write iso to disk
[08:59] <Frustrated> Hmm, looks like I was using "Burn image"
[08:59] <Jack_Sparrow> click
[08:59] <psgrewal> hey i need an application layer based ids does anybody know anything abt such systems
[08:59] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow, I don,t think he's in ubuntu
[09:00] <heguru> psgrewal: Snort can do Layer 7 IDS
[09:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: If windows..iso recorder is very small free iso burner..
[09:00] <stonebear> Woot! 21st bday. Sparks & ubuntu = 8)
[09:00] <psgrewal> thanks man
[09:00] <Frustrated> Well, it is writing now
[09:00] <MrPink> heguru: that worked better but now it says: xorg-driver-fglrx is already the newest version
[09:00] <Frustrated> I'll be back if more problems occur. Thanks for all the help
[09:00] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow,  I think Frustrated  is using nero , I know it is somewhere in the menus but nero has multiple interfaces so it's a pain to walk him through it,  and i donT' have it available anyway so
[09:01] <Frustrated> Pelo: Using the open source one now
[09:01] <Pelo> Frustrated, best of luck
[09:01] <heguru> MrPink: ok next just do: aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:01] <Frustrated> Thx
[09:01] <mnemo> can anyone recommend a good CPU profiler for linux, which does not require instrumentation of the binaries?
[09:01] <evilgeek> some combination of this ubuntu feisty machine and its monitor are unable to display resolutions higher than 800x600.  the video card is happy to set 1024x768, but the monitor won't display anything.  the video card is an "Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 04)" and the monitor is an IBM E74.  (when it ran windows, it was capable of running in modes up to 1280x1024, i believe.)
[09:01] <heguru> MrPink: then try to start gdm sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[09:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo: Nero is a long way around just to burn an iso
[09:01] <evilgeek> (i'm using the i810 X driver, of course.)
[09:01] <Pelo> Jack_Sparrow,  depends on what comes installed with your windows computer when you bought it
[09:02] <Jack_Sparrow> evilgeek: post your xorg.. to the pastebin.. we will check it out.
[09:02] <heguru> evilgeek: you need to fix the refresh rates, if you can find the refresh rate range for this monitor i will tell you how to configure it
[09:02] <MrPink> heguru: "Found fglrx primary device section... Nothing to do, terminating" :-(
[09:02] <evilgeek> Jack_Sparrow: xorg.conf, you mean?
[09:02] <Pelo> later folks
[09:02] <evilgeek> heguru: oh god, i have to write modelines?
[09:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Pelo... Take care...
[09:02] <georo> i can`t access to my desktop is login then stop then i have a  blank screen
[09:02] <Jack_Sparrow> evilgeek: yes
[09:02] <heguru> MrPink: hmm, well join me in #ubuntu-video to try to solve this
[09:02] <javabugz> macd..thanks
[09:03] <james296> does anyone here know any good site thats an alternative to ubuntuguide.org? I noticed that site has been down for a while now...
[09:03] <andy_> I've got a question regarding nvidia drivers(32bit) I just installed the nivida drivers from the official nvidia website and when i restart the x server i get that the x server is not configured correctly, in the error log it says the nivida kernel moduel does not match the current nvidia driver(100.14.19) What should I do? been working with this the last 4 days, cant seem to figure anything out! :/
[09:03] <Jack_Sparrow> evilgeek: Wont know til we look at it eh?
[09:03] <evilgeek> Jack_Sparrow: okay.  an embarrassing question, but how do you get w3m to use vi as its default text editor rather than pico? =)  i don't know how to read a file in pico.
[09:03] <peepsalot> where can I find a list/comparison of gui terminals?
[09:03] <javabugz> andy_: if you use the native nvidia drivers...you need to also compile the nvidia kernel module
[09:03] <mauri> where are stored the packaged dowloaded with adept updater
[09:04] <rothchild> Hi can anyone tell me how I switch my input devices between 2 different xservers (ie my monitor on vga and the the TV on svhs)?
[09:04] <javabugz> ubuntuforums has a few posts where you can find details on how to do it
[09:04] <xerxe> hello to all! i have a  problem. when i play a video file with vlc player, i get a green bar on the top of th epicture. how can i solved that? got x1300 radeon , fglrx, xorg, no beryk
[09:04] <javabugz> andy_: i suggest that you use the driver that come with ubuntu
[09:04] <andy_> when i installed the driver the installer told me that it didn't find any precompiled kernel, therefore it asked me if it was going to search for one on nivida's ftp
[09:04] <Jack_Sparrow> evilgeek: I dont know.
[09:04] <Rainarrow> heguru, thanks again for helping me, I am leaving, goodbye
[09:04] <andy_> I did so, but it didn't find anything. So, it asked me if it should compile a kernel for me
[09:05] <andy_> I said yes and it installed
[09:05] <heguru> Rainarrow: welcome anytime :)
[09:05] <javabugz> andy_: using the command prompt...just type in "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new"
[09:05] <mauri> where are stored the packaged dowloaded with adept updater
[09:05] <javabugz> you should get the new drivers
[09:05] <avt3kk> freinds can you help me please?
[09:05] <evilgeek> figured it out.  http://rafb.net/p/uNUOmK97.html
[09:05] <PriceChild> mauri, /var/cache/apt ?
[09:05] <andy_> Tried that too javabugz :/
[09:05] <macd> mauri, /var/cache/apt/
[09:05] <heguru> avt3kk: ask your question
[09:05] <javabugz> andy_: what's your ubuntu version?
[09:05] <andy_> 7.04 javabugz
[09:05] <evilgeek> (i did some small edits to the file --- namely changing default depth to 16 and adding the 1024x768 resolution.)
[09:06] <Jack_Sparrow> andy_: were you having problems with the drivers from the repos?
[09:06] <andy_> repos?
[09:06] <andy_> fairly new to ubuntu
[09:06] <avt3kk> Heguru: itsa been a couple weeks and I havnt found a way to get into yahoo chat witn tubuntu yet with the new letters and numbers verification entry system they are using now so im wondering if theres a new gaim or something out that will do this?
[09:06] <avt3kk> *ubuntu
[09:07] <Jack_Sparrow> andy_: If you are fairly new to ubuntu, you might want to learn about the repositories, how to use synaptic, aptitude or apt-get to find and install software
[09:07] <verb> h08817, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/704tour    you asked me if ubuntu had WPA encryption ....take a look at the network part of the release notes
[09:07] <andy_> Ah
[09:07] <h08817> verb, ok thanks
[09:07] <andy_> Now i know what you're talking about
[09:07] <andy_> :p
[09:07] <andy_> 2sec
[09:07] <Jack_Sparrow> andy_: And that backing up is only one line in a termianl (cli) that can help you get your old system back if something goes wrong
[09:07] <avt3kk> Jack I installed java and flash :)
[09:08] <verb> h08817, images included :)
[09:08] <avt3kk> and made a backup image
[09:08] <Frustrated_Again> Uurgh, I am having bad luck with the CDs :/
[09:08] <avt3kk> did you guys see the little tutorial I made?
[09:09] <james296> so yeah, alternative to ubuntuguide.org?
[09:09] <avt3kk> this is mine: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=536491
[09:09] <georo> i can`t access to my desktop is login then stop then i have a  blank screen
[09:09] <h08817> verb, awesome thanks for the search
[09:09] <c3p0> hey guys i just did a fresh install of 7.04 been tweaking it for the last few hours -- just a quick question... unless i missed something during installation my USER account and my ROOT account have the same password by default? seems a bit redundant any ideas?
[09:09] <Frustrated_Again> This CD corruption happened again with the other CD :/
[09:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Frustrated_Again: You are in windows right?  google up isorecorder and get the right one for your system/service pack...
[09:09] <javabugz> seems lazy..but is anyone aware of current kvm (with kernel module) for gusty?
[09:10] <PriceChild> !gutsy | javabugz
[09:10] <ubotu> javabugz: 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
[09:10] <dug_> Frustrated_Again: you might want to just use infrarecorder to burn your ubuntu cd from windows, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[09:10] <Frustrated_Again> (I was here with the nick Frustrated a moment ago but it seems that someone registered it o_O)
[09:10] <avt3kk> Jack is my old buddy from yahoo :)
[09:10] <Frustrated_Again> dug_: I already have that, and it kinda failed, too
[09:10] <Frustrated_Again> I again have that 0 byte CD o_O
[09:10] <verb> h08817, no problem,  I am happy as long as people know that windows is not their only choice :)
[09:10] <c3p0> any help fellas?
[09:10] <h08817> verb, haha yeah. Now i just need to make sure this works with my old video card
[09:11] <avt3kk> ubuntu makes it so easy
[09:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Frustrated_Again: When was the last time you scanned for bugs and virii on that WIndows box?
[09:11] <verb> h08817, what's the model?
[09:11] <Frustrated_Again> Verb: It seems that trying to burn a CD corrupts it, both with Nero and the open source one
[09:11] <panosru> can someone help me install wine on my Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty 64bit?
[09:11] <Frustrated_Again> Or could there be something wrong with my CD drive?

[09:12] <avt3kk> Jack on my imaged xp gaming box I installed registryoptimiser2

[09:34] <c3p0> ??
[09:34] <LjL> c3p0, out of curiosity, why are you installing the Nvidia driver like that, instead of just getting it from the repos?
[09:34] <curious101> hi, are you familiar with SWAT? how do you access it?
[09:34] <BobSapp> I am wondering the same LjL
[09:35] <Gimped> doug_:  are you having black video output but have working sound output?
[09:35] <heguru> curious101: yes have you installed swat? you can access it by opening http://localhost:901 in your browser
[09:35] <h08817> verb, it made it farther this time but still failed
[09:35] <c3p0> MasterShrek: said you get a program with the downloaded version to configure dual monitors
[09:35] <doug__> thnks nickrud i am using beryl and its same way thnks i got it now
[09:35] <jugimaster> Hello :)  ..   - Can anyone think of a reason why running bittorrent downloads would seriously clog up one's internet connection?  I mean, the torrents themselves run very slowly, my upload speed is at about 15% of the maximum even though there's no limit set,  and umm..  generally things become very unresponsive if i run a torrent client..
[09:35] <verb> h08817, what is it that fails ? downloading or burning?
[09:35] <Symmetria> hrm, has the ubuntu live cd got read/write ntfs support in it?
[09:35] <USMarine> jugimaster have a look in azureus wiki
[09:35] <h08817> verb, checking the cdrom
[09:35] <LjL> Symmetria: not out of the box no
[09:36] <curious101> thanks for your response heguru. Is there any way to access it using root?
[09:36] <heguru> ugimaster: uploads block the TCP ack going back slowing the Internet. reduce your upload speed
[09:36] <verb> h08817, after DLing?
[09:36] <TtyS2> how can i see the sizes and names of my partitions, including whats free and whats used
[09:36] <blessid> Symmetria i blv it does
[09:36] <h08817> verb, yes
[09:36] <c3p0> anyone help me finish this driver installation off?
[09:36] <LjL> !away > Inso    (Inso, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:36] <jugimaster> USMarine: well, i've been trying things out with different bt clients, and so far my network clogs up with each of them
[09:36] <nickrud> TTilus: df
[09:36] <h08817> verb, it went farther than before though
[09:36] <MasterShrek> c3p0, once you install that driver, the program will show up in your menu
[09:36] <nickrud> TtyS2: erm, df
[09:36] <USMarine> jugimaster adsl?
[09:36] <c3p0> ahh ok
[09:36] <USMarine> try using a filter
[09:36] <TtyS2> thanks
[09:36] <jugimaster> cable modem
[09:36] <LjL> c3p0, why don't you answer my question?
[09:36] <Symmetria> hrm *tries it*
[09:36] <c3p0> i did look above
[09:36] <jugimaster> right now I've got KTorrent uploading at 30/100 kB/s
[09:36] <curious101> thanks for your response heguru. Is there any way to access it using root?
[09:36] <USMarine> jugimaster router?
[09:36] <verb> h08817, you mean it takes some time...how long has it been checking?
[09:36] <nickrud> TtyS2: that's mounted partitions, by the way.
[09:36] <c3p0> MasterShrek: how do i install it??
[09:37] <c3p0> i have chmoded it
[09:37] <jugimaster> umm..   router at ISP :)
[09:37] <jugimaster> i just think this is weird..
[09:37] <USMarine> not at home?
[09:37] <jugimaster> i'm a new linux user
[09:37] <TtyS2> nickrud: gets command not found
[09:37] <heguru> curious101: swat is web based configuration tool for samba, you can acces it using the web browser. You have to be root to access it
[09:37] <h08817> verb, i put the cd in the drive, boot to it, go to the menu, choose Check CD for defects
[09:37] <jugimaster> i'm at home
[09:37] <jugimaster> but i haven't got a separate router
[09:37] <jugimaster> i don't know if the cable modem box contains one
[09:37] <TtyS2> i wants the entire list including swap
[09:37] <nickrud> TtyS2:  the command   '   df  ' not found??
[09:37] <USMarine> you should check then
[09:37] <LjL> c3p0: oh, seemed you were talking to someone else... but uhm, is that a good reason to risk messing up your system? i mean, i'm sure you know that, with the drivers from nvidia.com (as opposed to the ones from the repos), whenever there's a kernel update or something like that, you'll probably have no X left
[09:37] <TtyS2> erm not found
[09:37] <verb> h08817, is it still checking ? since when?
[09:38] <MasterShrek> c3p0, you have to kill gdm and run that from a termnial
[09:38] <LjL> c3p0: can't that program be obtained from someplace else separately?
[09:38] <curious101> heguru. oh, i see. I don't want to enable "sudo passwd root" Is there a workaround for this?
[09:38] <jugimaster> omg..  i checked and my upload speed was 3k/s
[09:38] <heguru> curious101: unfortunately no :(
[09:38] <jugimaster> it keeps fluctuating weirdly
[09:38] <rothchild> can anyone tell me how I switch my input devices between 2 different xservers (ie my monitor on vga and the the TV on svhs)
[09:38] <c3p0> im not sure its called NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9755-pkg1.run
[09:38] <verb> h08817, ?
[09:38] <jugimaster> i've had no problems like this on windows
[09:38] <nickrud> TtyS2: that is a bit strange, it's on every linux in the world; ls /bin/df
[09:39] <jugimaster> (with the same ISP)
[09:39] <curious101> @heguru, oh, okay. But what about temporarily enabling root? Is it possible?
[09:39] <TtyS2> got it, thanks
[09:39] <heguru> curious101: yes sudo passwd root
[09:39] <georo> i can`t access to my desktop is login then stop then i have a  blank screen
[09:39] <USMarine> jugimaster tried with azureus before?
[09:39] <jugimaster> is there a possibility that fiddling with my /etc/hosts file might cause bad things to happen ?
[09:39] <curious101> @heguru, then how do I disable or delete it again?
[09:39] <jugimaster> yes, i tried azu today
[09:39] <c3p0> why is my user account password the same as my root password?
[09:39] <heguru> curious101: to disable back: usermod -L root
[09:39] <LjL> jugimaster: yes
[09:39] <georo> i can`t access to my desktop is login then stop then i have a  blank screen can some  one help me ?
[09:39] <verb> heguru, this is better ?  : sudo -i
[09:39] <heguru> curious101: sudo usermod -L root
[09:39] <jugimaster> hmm
[09:39] <h08817> verb, goes past scanning cd-rom onto the screen checking cd-rom integrity and dies on Checking file: ./pool/main/n/ncurses/ncurses-bin_5.5-5ubuntu2_i386.deb file failed the MD5 checksum verification
[09:39] <randomc0de> jugimaster: only if you don't back it up first
[09:39] <macd> jugimaster, yes, as far not being able to sudo even.
[09:39] <LjL> !hostname | jugimaster
[09:40] <ubotu> jugimaster: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab
[09:40] <nickrud> curious101:   sudo -i will get you there, and is temporary
[09:40] <jugimaster> well
[09:40] <curious101> @heguru, will that command disable root just like during the default installation of Ubuntu?
[09:40] <Gimped> Is there a way to set gnome desktop icons to the right side of the desktop (instead of the default left side)?
[09:40] <curious101> @nickrud, but I need to access a Web browser for SWAT.
[09:40] <jugimaster> actually i was foolish enough not to back it up, but i ended up removing all the things i took out..  it's just not like the original right now
[09:41] <josh_> hey does anyone know how to hook up a ti-89ti to ubuntu?
[09:41] <jugimaster> umm sorry i tripped over my sentence there :P   i meant i took out the stuff i added
[09:41] <verb> h08817, :( what's wrong today with these CDs refusing to download properly
[09:41] <nickrud> curious101: ah, swat. you could sudo -i and use lynx or elinks or something :)
[09:41] <Kaedenn> Okay. How would I go about getting a list of installed packages (apt-cache and friends) and sort them such that packages I just installed are listed first and those I installed shortly after installing Ubuntu are listed last? I just want the names of the packages, sorted by date, descending.
[09:41] <USMarine> Gimped trivial thing in kde
[09:41] <USMarine> jus drag them there
[09:41] <randomc0de> jugimaster: just make sure "127.0.0.1 localhost" is in there
[09:41] <jugimaster> is there a way to restore my hosts file back to the default one ?
[09:41] <c3p0> im trying to change my password by after i authenticate it just hangs?/
[09:41] <curious101> @nickrud, ok. thanks
[09:41] <curious101> @heguru, will that command disable root just like during the default installation of Ubuntu?
[09:41] <jugimaster> random: yes that's there
[09:41] <LjL> jugimaster: as long as it says  127.0.0.1 localhost yourhostname  on the first line and 127.0.1.1 yourhostname  on the second, and the rest is ipv6-related, it should be fine
[09:41] <h08817> verb, maybe i'll try a fresh cd and write it at 8x
[09:42] <curious101> @heguru, the "usermod -L root" disables root just like when Ubuntu was first installed?
[09:42] <jugimaster> it's missing the ip6 related things..  :/  since i didn't take a backup
[09:42] <jugimaster> could my problems be related to that?
[09:42] <verb> h08817, you mean it's corrupted ...ok    you can download by the conventional way  ..and use this tool : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[09:42] <USMarine> could be
[09:42] <TtyS2> i wanna make a dvd to make a copy of /home, any suggestion of burner to use for a newbie?
[09:42] <LjL> jugimaster: well if you don't use ipv6 that shouldn't be a problem either
[09:42] <verb> h08817, for windows
[09:42] <c3p0> im trying to change my password by after i authenticate it just hangs?/
[09:42] <h08817> verb, i did all that
[09:42] <h08817> the checksums are equal
[09:42] <jugimaster> LjL:  at least i'm not aware of using ip6 :)
[09:42] <Demi-god> does anyone know if there's a GUI app for setting up bluetooth devices? I'm thinking of building one but don't want to reinvent the wheel
[09:42] <verb> h08817, the result?
[09:43] <h08817> verb, check sums are equal
[09:43] <LjL> jugimaster: anyway what i have is    ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback    fe00::0 ip6-localnet    ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix    ff02::1 ip6-allnodes    ff02::2 ip6-allrouters    ff02::3 ip6-allhosts    (long space = newline)
[09:43] <h08817> verb, the whole file is there intact
[09:43] <jugimaster> should the first line list my computer's name too?  or is it enough that it's on the second line by itself ?
[09:43] <whta> my friend wants to get rid of evolution mail. will deleting this from synaptic have any bad effects?
[09:43] <Demi-god> the current ubuntu documentation instructs users to use command line utilities for bluetooth setup
[09:43] <nickrud> Demi-god: searching freshmeat.net usually finds me what I'm looking for
[09:43] <verb> h08817, how did you burn it?
[09:43] <LjL> jugimaster: hm no, as i said above...
[09:43] <heguru> curious101: it locks the root account
[09:43] <h08817> verb, imgburn
[09:43] <linuxVSwindows> so, are there less viruses for linux in this world?
[09:43] <nickrud> if it's there
[09:43] <USMarine> whta nah
[09:43] <Kaedenn> whta, synaptic will tell you if it's a bad idea
[09:43] <jugimaster> hmm
[09:43] <LjL> jugimaster: first line:  127.0.0.1 localhost yourhostname      second line 127.0.1.1 yourhostname          hostname goes on both lines
[09:43] <wweasel> Anyone here familiar with bash scripting? I have a quick question. Extremely simple, but what can I say, I'm new to it....
[09:43] <verb> h08817, that's on windows Am I right?
[09:44] <USMarine> whta but check what's being removed also
[09:44] <h08817> verb, yes
[09:44] <heguru> wweasel: whats your question
[09:44] <h08817> verb, im using windows
[09:44] <LjL> wweasel, try asking
[09:44] <jugimaster> ok
[09:44] <curious101> heguru: oh I see. it doesn't really disable it again. Thanks for you help!
[09:44] <jugimaster> i'll try setting it to that
[09:44] <verb> h08817, are you sure the CD isn't broken (scraches)
[09:44] <jugimaster> and see if i can paste that ip6 stuff in there too
[09:44] <verb> h08817, CR-R or CR-RW?
[09:44] <wweasel> I'm trying to make an if statement to test whether or not the grep of a file returns null.
[09:44] <jugimaster> do you think the somewhat lacking hosts file could cause this general slowness ?
[09:44] <krool> I'm going to build an office computer for a friend. Do you think that he needs Dual core AMD or just a single Core with high speed?
[09:44] <h08817> verb, yeah im sure but i'll try to use another cd i have used this one before this is a cd-rw i'll use a cd-r next time and why does it matter what kidn?
[09:45] <Demi-god> I can't find any such apps on freshmeat...maybe one needs to be built
[09:45] <LjL> wweasel: "returns null" meaning "gives no output" i assume?
[09:45] <USMarine> krool the cheapest will do
[09:45] <nickrud> jugimaster: absolutely, if you're talking about apps taking forever to open
[09:45] <LjL> wweasel: "grep" returns 0 if it finds any matches, 1 otherwise
[09:45] <verb> h08817, ok Try Infra Recorder...it's a great opensource program .....https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[09:45] <MasterShrek> linuxVSwindows, the biggest threat you your linux install is you
[09:45] <weasel> wweasel: I find your choice of nickname more than annoying.
[09:45] <verb> h08817, it may solve your problem
[09:45] <h08817> verb, ok thanks i gta go i'll jot that down
[09:45] <weasel> wweasel: please pick a different one
[09:45] <LjL> wweasel: so     if grep blah somefile; then echo "grep has found something"; else echo "grep found nothing"; fi
[09:45] <verb> h08817, it's for windows only
[09:45] <jugimaster> nickrud:  ok thanks..   it's more like websites taking forever to load..   but for some reason it seems to happen only when i'm running a torrent download :)
[09:45] <c3p0> so dude how would i find what im looking for using repos?
[09:45] <verb> h08817, ok cya
[09:46] <nickrud> lol
[09:46] <krool> USMarine, Well it needs to be a fast computer but I don't think he needs a dual core.
[09:46] <jugimaster> :P
[09:46] <jugimaster> weird.. :)
[09:46] <USMarine> krool if the price difference is too big then no
[09:46] <wweasel> weasel: sorry, that's my nick. it would be wallacetheweasel, but that is too long.
[09:46] <USMarine> but worth having another core
[09:46] <wweasel> Lgl: Thanks.
[09:46] <USMarine> putting it running with an SMP kernel will work good
[09:46] <linuxVSwindows> MasterShrek, what do u mean?
[09:47] <josh_> does any1 no how to hook up a ti-89ti with ubuntu?
[09:47] <krool> USMarine, does ubuntu take advantage of dual core processing?
[09:47] <wweasel> Lgl: That is a much simpler solution. Mine was complicated, involving piping cat foo into grep,e tc.
[09:47] <USMarine> with an SMP kernel yes
[09:47] <MasterShrek> linuxVSwindows, the easiest and most common way for a linux install to get hosed is because of user error
[09:47] <orangefly> fiesty, how do you fullscreen kvm
[09:47] <USMarine> krool if it's 64bit even more
[09:47] <USMarine> since most software is 64bit compiled
[09:47] <linuxVSwindows> MasterShrek, what u mean is - there are no harmful viruses for linux?
[09:48] <LjL> josh_: sudo apt-get install tilp
[09:48] <LjL> josh_: sudo apt-get install tiemu might also come useful i suppose
[09:48] <MasterShrek> there could be, but the only way a virus in linux will have any extremely harmful effect is if it has root priviledges, otherwise it wont affect system-wide
[09:49] <josh_> thnx ljl
[09:49] <c3p0> 1 hour wasted.
[09:49] <orangefly> can kvm be fullscreen
[09:50] <wweasel> Lgl: Wait, no. I'm still getting an error saying "Too many arguments". My statement is:  if [ $(grep "Finished daily backup successfully on $(date +'%a %b %d')" /home/weasel/.backuplog_completed) = ] 
[09:50] <MasterShrek> orangefly, dont u mean qemu? and i dont think it can, but check the docs
[09:50] <LjL> wweasel: hm? but that's not right at all
[09:50] <weasel> bye
[09:50] <LjL> wweasel: what's that "=" sign? especially given it's not followed by anything
[09:50] <searayman> partial upgared in ubuntu not workign any ideas?
[09:50] <georo> i can`t access to my desktop is login then stop then i have a  blank screen can some  one help me ?
[09:51] <mody> HI all, I am new and need some answer regarding system monitor
[09:51] <jachacy> hi
[09:51] <LjL> wweasel: make it just     if grep "Finished daily backup successfully on $(date +'%a %b %d')" /home/weasel/.backuplog_completed; ...............
[09:51] <nickrud> mody: ask the real question :)
[09:51] <searayman> ca somone help me with this error: http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1157/1419000469_90480c4ea0.jpg?v=0
[09:51] <LjL> wweasel: (if you're bothered by the grep output coming up, just add the "-q" option to it)
[09:52] <steel_lady> is there somebody that has a lot of experience with modem routers for adsl?
[09:52] <LjL> wweasel, also, the nickname is LjL. not to be picky, but if you don't use it i might miss your messages
[09:52] <USMarine> well
[09:52] <USMarine> steel_lady i have both in 2 different pieces
[09:52] <[LUCIAN] > For some reason, I can use a webcam on a sudo-enabled account, but it will not work on a liimited user. Why is this?
[09:52] <nickrud> searayman: do  sudo apt-get update , and try again (or reload(?) button on synaptic)
[09:52] <USMarine> mody how can i answer without knowing the fucking question
[09:52] <[LUCIAN] > I need to set it up so the limited account can use certain applications
[09:53] <wweasel> LjL:  That if statement will come up true if there is any output, and false if there is no output?
[09:53] <wweasel> LjL: (Sorry, misread)
[09:53] <PriceChild> !ohmy | USMarine
[09:53] <ubotu> USMarine: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:53] <searayman> nickrud,
[09:53] <searayman> ok
[09:53] <LjL> wweasel: correct
[09:53] <krool> Does anyone think Dual Core 2.1ghz AMD 45watt processor would run fast on Ubuntu. It's just for an office computer, maybe some iPod syncing.
[09:54] <USMarine> it would run quite fine
[09:54] <nickrud> krool: work just fine , I run 1.6 dual core and am very happy
[09:54] <USMarine> with *kubuntu ofc
[09:54] <jm_> hello
[09:54] <Huey> is there a way to check what resolution gnome/kde thinks the monitors are?
[09:54] <MasterShrek> definately krool, im running dual core 1.6 64 bit, runs awesome
[09:54] <USMarine> Huey cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:54] <nickrud> Huey:   xrandr   in a terminal
[09:54] <Huey> for some reason, even though xorg.conf specifies an output of 1400x1050 to the external monitor, the monitor is only displaying 1280x1024, and truncating parts of the screen
[09:55] <wweasel> LjL: Oh, great! I didn't know that. Thanks for your help
[09:55] <Huey> but xrandr lists 2800x1050 (i'm trying to use mergedfb)
[09:55] <kahrytan> krool, why spend money on an ipod?
[09:55] <mody> USMarine, sory for the late reply, I have the system monitor on the top panel, and it gives me sometimes that processor is busy 100% while when I open it I don't see more than 40 or 50% busy - why is that?
[09:56] <macd> !offtopic | kahrytan
[09:56] <ubotu> kahrytan: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:56] <steel_lady> USMarine, I have the strangest problem that my ubuntu connects normally but windows can not
[09:56] <searayman> nickrud, that didnt help
[09:56] <slimz> hey guys, i just installed 7.04, and it wont detect my home network, which is wired, i always get an ip of 0.0.0.0 in windows it autodected no problem
[09:56] <Huey> and as a consequence, all of the text on the external display appears blurry
[09:56] <hmhowie> wweasel: a word of warning, grep -q is a gnu specific extension for grep, so if you want your script to run on *bsd or solaris, you'd have to change it
[09:56] <Huey> (an lcd at non-native resolution)
[09:56] <USMarine> steel_lady that's lovely :P
[09:56] <krool> I'm building a computer for a friend and he just needs it for office use. Do you think he'll like using Ubuntu vs Windows? He Doesn't know much about comuters and if i use Ubuntu I think there will be less problems. But i'm scared about the compatibility of pref-rials.
[09:56] <Hestv4> gee... I just switched my good old netbsd NAT router for a brand new ubuntu....
[09:56] <USMarine> steel_lady firewall?
[09:56] <kahrytan> macd, not o4o
[09:56] <Knight_On_White> hello, i would like to know if Ubuntu server 7.05 64 bit work fine with Dual core (conroe) processors ?
[09:57] <USMarine> mody cpu bursts
[09:57] <nickrud> searayman: did you get those from some other repo than ubuntu?
[09:57] <steel_lady> USMarine I don't have FW
[09:57] <hmhowie> krool: pref-rials? i don't know the word
[09:57] <searayman> nickrud, probbaly
[09:57] <arooni_> folks how can i wipe a dvd ?  i have tried using gnomebaker
[09:57] <Hestv4> but the local eth0 doesn't seem to receive any dhcp packets anymore...!?
[09:57] <slimz> hey guys, i just installed 7.04, and it wont detect my home network, which is wired, i always get an ip of 0.0.0.0 in windows it autodected no problem, i cant manually put in my gateway either, nothing happens
[09:57] <mody> USMarine, what does thim mean, what is bursts
[09:57] <USMarine> steel_lady what exactly happens?
[09:57] <gurkburk_> does anyone here have any knowledge about ALSA? Ive been trying for 3 days now to get my logitech usb-microphone to work, and its the last bloody thing I need to get running so I can stop rebooting to winXP :p
[09:58] <nickrud> searayman: ubuntu checks the gpg signature of the repos; you probably need to add the repo gpg key to clear those errors
[09:58] <USMarine> mody sudden processing requirements, cpu usage jumps to 100
[09:58] <hmhowie> slimz: does your router usually configure your network?
[09:58] <searayman> nickrud, how can i get that, or skip it
[09:58] <krool> hmhowie, ops i meant Printers, iPod, stuff like that
[09:58] <slimz> hmhowie: yes dhcp is on
[09:58] <xerxe> hello guts? got a greenisk bar on top on vlc windows when playing a movie/ whats up with that/ cant get rid of it. help
[09:58] <USMarine> mody but then it should come down again
[09:58] <steel_lady> USMarine, when we do ping or whatever it does not detect the modem. we put installation CD it does not detect modem. We install other win on other comp, it does not detect it. But with Ubuntu it connects perfectly from both comps
[09:58] <alcoholic> my reslov.conf keeps on changing again and again then i have to go to system-> administration->network and select home on place and activate it again in order to re runinternet
[09:58] <hmhowie> krool: i understand. usually this isn't a problem, but check to see what printer they have first.
[09:59] <nickrud> searayman: the website of the repo you have. You can also just ignore it. I'm not sure how to supress it
[09:59] <alcoholic> is there any way to stop it
[09:59] <wweasel> hmhowie: Thanks for the advice :) Portable scripts are way beyond my scope right now (i'm just backing up my computer over rsync).  However, it's good to know if I ever want something to be truly cross-platform.
[09:59] <hmhowie> slimz: do you know the address of the router?
[09:59] <searayman> nickrud, how can i ignore it? it won't go on to isnatll any updates
[09:59] <slimz> hmhowie yeah im on my laptop now, and i used the info from here, for the gateway, etc
[09:59] <krool> hmhowie, yeah but if i use windows and he buys an MP3 player we know it will work in Ubuntu he can only buy an iPod because there is support for them.
[09:59] <USMarine> steel_lady usb or ethernet?
[09:59] <mody> USMarine, but when I double click on the monitor icon I don't see that much in the processes list when I calculate all of them, they are much less than what the icon say
[09:59] <alcoholic> can any one help me out with it
[10:00] <hmhowie> wweasel: i only mentioned it because i got ripped apart on #solaris recently for inadvertantly using a gnu specific extention ;)
[10:00] <USMarine> alcoholic just tell what the problem is
[10:00] <wweasel> hmhowie:  Oops :)
[10:00] <alcoholic> my reslov.conf keeps on changing again and again then i have to go to system-> administration->network and select home on place and activate it again in order to re runinternet
[10:00] <hmhowie> slimz: how have you tried to configure the network?
[10:00] <slimz> hmhowie yes
[10:00] <nickrud> searayman: ah, try aptitude or apt-get. They let you override.
[10:00] <searayman> and us eupdate?
[10:01] <slimz> hmhowie : when i manually add my ip/gateway, it doesnt help
[10:01] <hmhowie> krool: basically he can buy anything which identifies itself as a mass storage device. some modern mp3 players don't bother to do this any longer
[10:01] <hmhowie> slimz: can you ping the router?
[10:01] <USMarine> mody i don't know then
[10:01] <alcoholic> so any one who can help me with it ?
[10:01] <USMarine> try using a different one
[10:01] <slimz> hmhowie : no i cant connect
[10:02] <Licinius_18924> hi
[10:02] <slimz> hmhowie : my ip is always 0.0.0.0.
[10:02] <MasterShrek> alcoholic, make it non writeable? itll prolly screw your system up, but worth a shot
[10:03] <hmhowie> slimz: so if your router has the ip address 192.168.1.1, open a terminal and enter: sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.<any number but 1> (assuming your network interface is eth0)
[10:03] <krool> Does anyone here have a switching from Windows to Ubuntu success story? Only requirement is that the machine is used by someone else, not yourself.
[10:03] <mody> USMarine, Okey, another question - when I attach my flash memory to the USB port, I get a message saying that the mount command is wrong or incomplete, and I cann't mount the flash memory
[10:03] <slimz> hmhowie ok
[10:03] <MasterShrek> krool, my parents use ubuntu now
[10:03] <USMarine> krool have a vmware near by
[10:03] <USMarine> for urgencies
[10:03] <MasterShrek> krool, they dont have root access, so they cant screw it up, works great
[10:04] <koudelka__> how to change so the gnome splash screen dosen't disapear untill it's done loading everything?
[10:04] <krool> lol
[10:04] <boyam> `krool, my wife and son use ubuntu...absolutely no complaints as of yet...(knock on wood)
[10:04] <USMarine> mody make a script, my pen drives mount perfectly in kde
[10:05] <slimz> hmhowie : ok i can ping the router now, but not outside to the internet
[10:05] <USMarine> krool my girlfriend switched from win Me to kubuntu, so did my parents
[10:05] <jachacy> hellp
[10:05] <TheRepacker> I hosed my kernel this morning by installing Nvidia 100.14.19 , getting random lockups, so I want to use the 9636 driver, but 100.14 has modified the kernel. Anyone know how to get the older unmodified kernel back?
[10:05] <LjL> !help | jachacy
[10:05] <ubotu> jachacy: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[10:05] <hmhowie> slimz: edit /etc/resolv.conf to include either the nameserver you're using on the computer you're typing on or the ip-address of the router.
[10:05] <krool> Can you run Office 07 in Wine?
[10:06] <jachacy> do you know, how to type char apart from key codepage?
[10:06] <hmhowie> slimz: you'll have to do that as root so: "sudo nano -w /etc/resolv.conf"
[10:06] <jachacy> like Windows: Alt + char code
[10:06] <josh_> what's the ubuntu off topic channel?
[10:06] <nickrud> krool: no. vmware, yes
[10:06] <slimz> hmhowie i dont have a resolv.conf
[10:07] <hmhowie> slimz: change the existing nameserver line to read "nameserver <ip addres of router>" or add this line if no line is present
[10:07] <hmhowie> slimz: well create one then :) /etc/resolv.conf

[10:08] <hmhowie> slimz: and now: "sudo route add default gw <ip address of router>"
[10:08] <hmhowie> slimz: and you should be connected to the outside world :)
[10:08] <slimz> hmhowie yo it works
[10:08] <mody> nickrud, in the system monitor windows, CPU% doesn't give me the same amount which is in the monitor icon which in Ubuntu panel
[10:08] <Knight_On_White> i have installed Ubuntu 7.04 on hardware - 1.86g dual core (Conroe) - when i look on the system moniter 1 processor is used 100% and the other processor is 10% , why the calculation of the first processor (100%) not sharing with the other processor ? (50% - 50%) ?
[10:08] <slimz> hmhowie thanks so much
[10:09] <hmhowie> slimz: the next thing is to find out why it didn't work automatically
[10:09] <slimz> hmhowie : maybe cause i installed with a super old 7.04 disc? im going to try to update
[10:09] <nickrud> mody: the panel app shows a bit more activity; right click it and change the colors of the cpu monitor to contrasting colors, and it'll be a lot clearer
[10:09] <krool> Does anyone know how to create a user where they don't have kernel control? I.e. they never have to type in the password but are allowed to install programs from Add/Remove Manager?
[10:09] <idiot> i'm having some real trouble installing compiz via apt-get.  i'm getting dependancy errors that i can't seem to resolve, and i can't seem to remove some packages...heres the output of what i've been trying so far:  http://rafb.net/p/aFZt6L92.html  any suggestions?
[10:10] <hmhowie> slimz: yeah. try to update it, but first kill any and all dhcp client processes. you don't want your network settings being mucked up until you've updated everything
[10:10] <gilligan_> hi there.. does anyone have a tip on how to mount different usb harddisks to unique mount points ? I suppose I should write a udev rule for that ?

[10:11] <Matt189> I can't install anything
[10:11] <hhp2k> I recently installed ssh on my ubuntu computer and WinSCP on my windows machine so I could transfer files between them. What I want to know now, is can I have that same configuration backwards? Can I transfer files from my windows machine to my ubuntu from ubuntu?
[10:11] <Matt189> without that happening
[10:12] <slackern> little bit offtopic but anyone know a small and simple application that can monitor several hosts for packetloss and maybe show it in a nice way?
[10:12] <jachacy> how to type special chars? like windows, for example: alt + 0225
[10:12] <josh_> u can "sudo apt-get install"
[10:12] <Matt189> no
[10:12] <Matt189> when I do that
[10:12] <Matt189> that happens
[10:12] <kitche> jachacy, same way but ubuntu has that turned off

[10:12] <pi3> busta811: I recommend you to find a guide

[10:14] <jachacy> kitche, sorry, how i can enable it? (my english sux)
[10:14] <hhp2k> hmhowie: I have no idea how to go about that :P Are there any tutorials anywhere?

[10:15] <busta811> pi3 i already instaled ubuntu
[10:15] <busta811> i downloaded a program n dont know how to install it on ubuntu
[10:15] <hhp2k> ooh, that makes sense :)
[10:15] <davebuntu> macd: any ideas how much room I should allow for then for /
[10:15] <hhp2k> Thank you
[10:15] <Dracari> maybe someone here can since no one in xubuntu is replying..
[10:16] <d4rkmonkey> busta811 can you give link of what program you downloaded?
[10:16] <macd> davebuntu, for a desktop with both gnome and kde and room to play, Id say  ~8gb
[10:16] <hmhowie> busta811: did you search the net for a repository with this program in it?
[10:16] <Dracari> i need help making my xubuntu ditsro be able to mount shared folders on the network w/ my windows pc
[10:16] <macd> davebuntu, I had a 4gb one, but went to install some extra junk and had to resize recently.
[10:16] <pi3> busta811: the best way to install a program is to download it from synaptic if it is possible
[10:16] <panosru> Hi, is there a way to display files by category? (like windows for example)
[10:16] <MrM``> bonsoir a tous
[10:17] <hmhowie> !fr | MrM
[10:17] <d4rkmonkey> MrM`` parlez anglais s'il vous plait?
[10:17] <ubotu> MrM: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[10:17] <davebuntu> macd: oh cool my current partition size is 10GB and I didn't want to have to resize it and borrow from my current home folder cause I'd probably lose stuff that's in there already.
[10:17] <busta811> i downloaded   alien registry viewer
[10:17] <davebuntu> god it's good to be able to use gaim part way through an install.
[10:17] <macd> davebuntu, your in great shape then right now Id say
[10:18] <macd> davebuntu, good plan having /home on a diff partition too, makes upgrades, reinstalls painless.
[10:18] <d4rkmonkey> busta811 its better to install things from the repos, if thats what I think it is(allows you to install .rpm almost like .deb) just do sudo apt-get install alien
[10:18] <hmhowie> busta811: that's a windows program
[10:18] <d4rkmonkey> busta811 if its a .deb file, double click it
[10:19] <d4rkmonkey> busta811 if its a windows program, as hmhowie said, not the one I was thinking about, try installing wine (sudo apt-get install wine) then run wine <file name>
[10:19] <Matt189> whenever I apt-get install anything
[10:19] <Matt189> I get
[10:19] <Matt189> No pre-built modules for: Debian-4.0 linux-2.6.20-16-generic i686-SMP
[10:19] <Matt189> 
[10:19] <Matt189> Trying to automatically build the driver modules...
[10:19] <davebuntu> macd: yeah I just tried kubuntu but it's a bit tough for me right now. I'm going back to ubuntu and will install kde too and keep trying it out every now and then.
[10:19] <busta811> it says is for linux too
[10:19] <Matt189> why would this be caused?
[10:19] <davebuntu> macd: cheers for the help
[10:19] <davebuntu> back to the install...
[10:19] <busta811> and in a zip file
[10:19] <macd> busta811, a registry viewer has no place in linux, and in wine it would have nothing to look at.
[10:19] <busta811> is*
[10:19] <busta811> oh
[10:20] <hhp2k> hmhowie: What would the port be?
[10:20] <hmhowie> busta811: do you have a link to the program? i googled for it and found this: http://lastbit.com/arv/default.asp
[10:20] <busta811> well how can i change stuff like rwin and mtu in linux?
[10:20] <Random832> is sshd _really_ not installed by default?
[10:20] <hmhowie> busta811: you can set the mtu when you configure the network interface. i don't know what rwin is
[10:21] <busta811> the link is
[10:21] <busta811> http://www.vicman.net/lib/linux/regedit
[10:21] <Xero> guys, I am in some deep shit
[10:21] <hmhowie> busta811: linux has well defined neatly arranged easily readable configuation files. you don't need a special viewer for them
[10:21] <undauntedspirit> Where is the "Trash" folder located in gnome?
[10:21] <busta811> is that im new to linux
[10:21] <macd> busta811, by using per-up options in /etc/network/interfaces, I suggest you read about pre-up options.
[10:21] <Random832> does that "alien registry viewer" work on .reg files, system.dat/user.dat, or both?
[10:21] <kitche> undauntedspirit, in your user home directory
[10:21] <macd> undauntedspirit, ~/.Trash-Username
[10:22] <Xero> I can't get my laptop to show a gui and I had Mastershrek helping me, but he disappeared.
[10:22] <busta811> random idk
[10:22] <flaco> hi all
[10:22] <undauntedspirit> macd, kitche:  Thanks
[10:22] <Xero> Now I am without a gui, and I can't do anything in a command prompt
[10:22] <hmhowie> busta811: don't worry. we were all new once :)
[10:22] <Random832> oh, and it's apparently not for linux
[10:22] <busta811> =O
[10:22] <Invisionfree> Hello! I seem to recall a graphic HTML editor where you can preview your code, do like Insert > Image, etc...What is it?
[10:22] <Ignite> Xero, I can help you, if you need it. Just gimme a should if you get stuck.
[10:23] <wweasel> LjL: Are you still around?
[10:23] <busta811> it said linux regedit at top so i thought it was for linux
[10:23] <LjL> wweasel: yes
[10:23] <hmhowie> busta811: the question you have to ask yourself with linux is: "if i had written this piece of software, how would i have designed it?" so you have to forget a lot of the influence you've had from windows
[10:23] <macd> busta811, yeah typical garbage website ;)
[10:23] <undauntedspirit> I was overlooking .Trash   oops
[10:23] <Xero> Ignite: thanks
[10:23] <Invisionfree> Hello! I seem to recall a graphic HTML editor where you can preview your code, do like Insert > Image, etc...What is it?
[10:23] <busta811> oh
[10:23] <blessid> hmhowie: lol train em!
[10:24] <macd> Invisionfree, I think they dumped that editor in recent releases, nvu it was called I think
[10:24] <Dbcoops1231> i apologize if this is an obvious question, but could someone tell me how someone goes about adding mulitple widgets onto windows when using gk in monodevelop?
[10:24] <Ignite> Invisionfree, three that come to mind are: Screem, BlueFish and Nvu.
[10:24] <blessid> "forget all your windows thoughts"
[10:24] <Invisionfree> Nvu...That seems to be it
[10:24] <busta811> well i want to change the settings for like the default tcp receive window n that stuff
[10:24] <Invisionfree> Ignite, BlueFish isn't one of them
[10:24] <TtyS2> can i resize hda1 with out loosing the entire file system, and if yes, how?
[10:24] <Ignite> Invisionfree, BlueFish is a web development IDE for KDE.
[10:24] <macd> Invisionfree, if it is Nvu, its no longer in ubuntu.
[10:24] <Invisionfree> Wtf, why?
[10:25] <Ignite> Invisionfree, for Nvu there is a fork I suggest you look into. Nvu hasn't been actively developed in over 2 years.
[10:25] <hmhowie> busta811: what do you mean when you say "tcp receive window"?
[10:25] <LjL> !nvu | Invisionfree
[10:25] <wweasel> LjL: Sorry to bother you again. I have one more thing to do, and it is baffling me how to do it. How would I isolate one word of a string. Say, if a grep command responds with "Time stamp: 59787453", how would I take only that number?
[10:25] <ubotu> Invisionfree: kompozer is a WYSIWYG HTML editor for easily creating web pages, and the continuation of the dead Nvu project.  It will be in the Ubuntu repos for 7.10 ("gutsy"); meanwhile for other versions add the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list:  "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tonyyarusso/ubuntu {edgy,feisty} universe"  (pick your release and list it without brackets, and no quotes)
[10:25] <macd> Ignite, bluefish is gtk/gnome, not KDE.
[10:25] <Ignite> macd, oh, then I got it mixed up. I haven't used it in a _long_ time. Lol.
[10:25] <macd> ditto.
[10:25] <Invisionfree> Ignite, what's screem like?
[10:25] <Ignite> Invisionfree, http://www.kompozer.net/
[10:25] <busta811> the rwin
[10:26] <Xero> what is that beeping?
[10:26] <LjL> wweasel: depends. in that case you might just extract the third word, and you can do that with    | awk ' { print $3 } '
[10:26] <LjL> wweasel: but of course that only works if it's always the third word
[10:26] <Ignite> Invisionfree, it's quite nice actually. Although I use Eclipse with the Aptana kit, see: http://www.aptana.com/ I _strongly_ recommend it. :P
[10:26] <hmhowie> busta811: i'll see if i can find it on wikipedia...
[10:26] <simprix> I want to switch to testing over fiesty. What is the release name I put in my sources
[10:26] <Xero> nevermind
[10:26] <macd> Aptanas rails stuff rocks.
[10:26] <Invisionfree> Ignite, honestly, I'm really strugging manually coding a table, soo this...Lol
[10:26] <busta811> ok
[10:26] <Xero> I am really fucked
[10:26] <wweasel> LjL: I'm writing the time stamps, I can make it always the same word. I'll try that
[10:26] <LjL> !language | Xero
[10:26] <Xero> It won't let me go into gnome
[10:26] <kitche> Xero that beep is the annoying shell beep windows does it as well but they like to turn that off
[10:26] <Invisionfree> !language | Xero
[10:26] <ubotu> Xero: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:27] <wweasel> LjL: And thanks so much for your help
[10:27] <Ignite> Invisionfree, screem is nice. :)
[10:27] <LjL> wweasel: you could also easily extract whatever comes after the colon, with   | sed 's/[^:] *: //g'
[10:27] <Invisionfree> Ahh, if it works for me, I'll email you a cookie :O
[10:27] <Ignite> macd, I haven't used the rails stuff yet. Is that the fork of RadRails?
[10:27] <macd> simprix, you can either put gutsy in there, or from console, issue, 'sudo update-manager -f'
[10:27] <hhp2k> How do you make files "hidden" in ubuntu? Can that be done on gnome?
[10:27] <Ignite> Invisionfree, I'll be sure to enjoy it. <3
[10:28] <PriceChild> hhp2k, prefix their name with a .
[10:28] <Invisionfree> <3
[10:28] <wweasel> LjL: Ah, sed...I really need to learn its syntax. I've been meaning to for months
[10:28] <macd> Ignite, yeah, and plugs into eclipse, so you get svn integration and deployment options.
[10:28] <PriceChild> hhp2k, e.g. a folder called .hidden would be hidden
[10:28] <LjL> hhp2k: can't be done. however, files beginning with a period are usually hidden by most software
[10:28] <adamorjames> I installed the deb of Gimp 2.4 RC2 for Ubuntu Fiesty. How do I run it?
[10:28] <hhp2k> So if I were to try and hide a file in Nautilus, it can't be done?
[10:28] <Hestv4> ok.. so firestarter is pretty useless for ipv6...
[10:28] <bruenig> adamorjames, gimp
[10:28] <jamison> how do i share a printer on unbuntu via samba? i have everything but where the printers are located i think...
[10:28] <darkchr0n0s> finished installing ?
[10:29] <Xero> can anyone help me?
[10:29] <darkchr0n0s> type gimp in console
[10:29] <Ignite> macd, I've added a tomboy note to install it. ;)
[10:29] <Invisionfree> OH NOEZ....
[10:29] <macd> adamorjames, is it in aaplications --> graphics --> gimp?
[10:29] <adamorjames> bruenig that is gimp 2.2
[10:29] <flaco> hi all... I got a problem.. my system has no sound.. it has been working. .but i dont know what happen... even the drums at start of gdm does not sound... the volume is set as max ... i'm using alsa.... any ideas?
[10:29] <Invisionfree> Ignite, forget your cookie..Oh
[10:29] <adamorjames> macd no
[10:29] <Invisionfree> Nvm, it opened now Ignite :P
[10:29] <Xero> I ma confuzzled
[10:29] <bruenig> adamorjames, see where it installed itself
[10:29] <c01100011> gutsy channel ?
[10:29] <adamorjames> bruenig yes
[10:29] <macd> adamorjames, then you should add it, goto system --> prefs --> main menu and add it, the command is  /usr/bin/gimp
[10:29] <jrib> hhp2k: well, you can list the names of the files you want hidden in a file called ".hidden" and nautilus will hide them.  "hidden" isn't really about "hiding from others", it's more "files I don't want to see clutter this space"
[10:29] <bruenig> adamorjames, dpkg -L packagename
[10:30] <LjL> wweasel: well in this case, the basic sed command i've used is 's/something/somethingelse/g', which replaces every occurrence of "something" with "somethingelse". but "something" is a regular expression there -- and it says: take anything that's not a colon  [^:]   repeated any number of times  *  then followed by a colon and a space  :  ... and substitute it with nothing
[10:30] <darkchr0n0s> !ping
[10:30] <ubotu> pong
[10:30] <adamorjames> macd I have gimp 2.2 in the menu but not 2.4
[10:30] <Hestv4> and when will we get pidgin?
[10:30] <jrib> c01100011: #ubuntu+1
[10:30] <hhp2k> jrib: would this .hidden file only work in the directory it's in, and is it a text file I just put the names of the files in?
[10:30] <jrib> Hestv4: in gutsy
[10:30] <LjL> wweasel: that results in only the stuff after the colon showing up
[10:30] <macd> jrib, anything in the curr directory of .hidden? or can you specify full paths?
[10:30] <jamison> does anyone know why my sound only works sometimes on fiesty? seems to randomly be enabled when i reboot.. i have two soundcards.
[10:30] <andy_> javabugz:  u there?
[10:30] <wweasel> LjL: Alright. I'll give it a whirl
[10:31] <jrib> hhp2k, macd: I believe it's only in the current directory, but experiment of course.  Yes, it is just a text file with a filename per line.  It may accept wildcards but I don't recall
[10:31] <Hestv4> jrib: hmm... some changes for synaptic? (else it seems easiser to download and compile the source...)
[10:31] <Matt189> is it allright if I ask a kubuntu question here? though, it has nothing to do with kde :P
[10:31] <LjL> Matt189: sure
[10:31] <Matt189> cool :)
[10:31] <hhp2k> Oh wait.. the period thing worked.
[10:31] <andy_> anyone who could help me with nvidia drivers?
[10:31] <hmhowie> busta811: "recent versions of linux (from 2.6.17) have full auto-tuning" so you don't need to worry about rwin
[10:32] <Matt189> I've done something to apt-get
[10:32] <hhp2k> but wait.. now how do I get that item to reappear? :(
[10:32] <jrib> Hestv4: pidgin will not end up in the feisty repositories.  I'm not sure what your last question is
[10:32] <kitche> hhp2k, either ls -a in terminal or view hidden files
[10:32] <Matt189> when I do something using apt-get
[10:32] <busta811> are u serious -.-
[10:32] <jrib> hhp2k: view -> show hidden files or ctrl-h
[10:32] <busta811> that same reason i stoped using vista
[10:32] <adamorjames> ...
[10:32] <hhp2k> Oh, there we go. :)
[10:32] <Hestv4> jrib: can I change repositories without fscking up my whole system?
[10:32] <Matt189> it wants me to compile some random module thing 0.o
[10:32] <Matt189> I'll pastecode the output :)
[10:33] <macd> busta811, tweaking your MTU and rwin really doesnt have any effect on a modern TCP stack.
[10:33] <hmhowie> busta811: from http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/tcptune/ you can however configure it manually, if you want
[10:33] <geore> @Mp3Q8.Us V1.0 By, Mp3Q8.Us Team
[10:33] <geore>  how i connect with kppp from command line ?
[10:33] <jrib> Hestv4: I would recommend waiting until gutsy is released in about a month and then upgrading.  If you really want pidgin on feisty, see the instructions ubotu gives you with:  /msg ubotu pidgin
[10:33] <busta811> well with xp i use to get way faster download n upload
[10:33] <hhp2k> Thank you jrib :)
[10:33] <busta811> ill see that website
[10:34] <andy_> I just installed nivida drivers from apt-get install nvidia-glx-new, but i cant seem to get the x-server to start because of this error: my nvidia kernel module( 1.0-9755 ) does not match with my X module( 1.0-9631 ) what should I do? :S
[10:34] <jamison> where are the printers located in ubuntu
[10:34] <hmhowie> macd: i had to do it once because i was on a gprs network card and the grps net had an mtu from just 500 :(
[10:34] <jrib> jamison: system -> administration -> printing
[10:34] <norky_> Just installed 7.04, it installs my wifi card fine (intel pro wireless 3945), but there is no WPA option in the gnome network manager. I have tried reinstalling the wpasupplicant package but with no luck, any ideas?
[10:34] <hhp2k> jrib: Is there any way to password-protect a folder in nautilus?
[10:34] <uukchuen> I have to analize why I am having programs and gnome segfault, but I dont know how, someone help please!
[10:34] <macd> hmhowie, thats a lil bit different story there
[10:34] <adamorjames> bruenig it says it is not installed
[10:34] <hmhowie> busta811: yeah. vista networking slows down to 10% when you play an mp3 at the same time
[10:34] <jamison> i mean the path... samba wants a path=
[10:34] <jrib> hhp2k: no, but you can use gpg to encrypt things if you want
[10:34] <geore>  how i connect with kppp from command line ?
[10:34] <sky1> I just installed ies4linux, I dont know where it went
[10:34] <kitche> norky_, it doesn't use wpa network manager from my understanding at least the default one doesn't
[10:35] <hhp2k> jrib: What's gpg?
[10:35] <Matt189> ok, here it is: http://apt-get-problems.pastecode.com/39647
[10:35] <scguy318> sky1: ~/.ie6 or something liek that
[10:35] <adamorjames> bruenig but the pkg mgr says it is installed
[10:35] <Matt189> that happens when I use apt-get
[10:35] <macd> sky1, ~/bin
[10:35] <jrib> !gpg > hhp2k (read the private message from ubotu)
[10:35] <andy_> I just installed nivida drivers from apt-get install nvidia-glx-new, but i cant seem to get the x-server to start because of this error: my nvidia kernel module( 1.0-9755 ) does not match with my X module( 1.0-9631 ) what should I do? :S
[10:35] <hmhowie> macd: that was also an older kernel. i wonder if the new kernels would do that automatically?
[10:35] <bruenig> adamorjames, what is the package name
[10:35] <busta811> with vista i only get like 11k download n when i had xp tweaked like 23k download
[10:35] <norky_> kitche: is there anything i need to do?
[10:35] <macd> hmhowie, most likely.

[10:35] <Matt189> I'm probably explaining this badly..
[10:35] <Matt189> hmm
[10:35] <bruenig> adamorjames, are you sure?
[10:35] <kitche> Matt189, do you have the kernel source installed?
[10:36] <Matt189> I'm not sure
[10:36] <Matt189> I haven't done it myself
[10:36] <adamorjames> bruenig gimp24_2.4-rc2-gimpusers1_i386.deb
[10:36] <hmhowie> busta811: and what do you get on linux? (what sort of connection is that btw? it seems to be middle in the gap between modem and dsl)
[10:36] <Matt189> doesn't it come with it?
[10:36] <uukchuen> sorry, I got other segfault

[10:38] <d2dchat> is there an application for Ubuntu desktop that is equivalent to OS X growl?
[10:38] <scguy318> c01100011: I would imagine Kopete
[10:38] <Matt189> hmm, sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uaname -r` seemed to work actually, but normally, when I do an install or remove, it starts all this stuff about Debian 4.0 modules
[10:38] <uukchuen> I need help with segfault, someone help, please!
[10:38] <d2dchat> and customizable
[10:38] <flaco> hi all.. I got installed alsa-utils.. but i dont have the command alsaconf.. any ideas?
[10:38] <hmhowie> c01100011: try wengophone. though principally any sip client will do
[10:38] <busta811> yea thats what im tryin to do but idk how in linux
[10:38] <scguy318> Matt189: i said uname -r :)
[10:39] <jrib> d2dchat: what does that do?
[10:39] <nickrud> Matt189: if you can force that error, paste the complete error on a pastebin
[10:39] <Matt189> oh, copied the wrong thing :P
[10:39] <Matt189> nickrud: ok
[10:39] <d2dchat> jrib, gives you pop up notifications in the upper right hand corner
[10:39] <macd> c01100011, also gaim/pidgin support webcam on MSN, so you can both use MSN.
[10:39] <adamorjames> bruenig give the url? what does...
[10:39] <uukchuen> how to analize a segfault(core dump)?
[10:39] <d2dchat> jrib, http://growl.info/screenshots.php
[10:39] <macd> uukchuen, turn it over to someone who knows.
[10:39] <hmhowie> d2dchat: i imagine gnome has a pop-up applet. kde certainly does.
[10:40] <jrib> d2dchat: ubuntu has notifications like taht by dfault
[10:40] <mnemo> uukchuen: use gdb
[10:40] <bruenig> adamorjames, pastebin the output and then give the url of the pastebin
[10:40] <c01100011> macd, that sounds like a good solution, thanks
[10:40] <d2dchat> jrib, how do I access them? I want my autotest server to post messages to it
[10:40] <uukchuen>  mnemo: how?
[10:40] <macd> uukchuen, try 'man gdb' for more options, but simply 'gdb corefile' works.
[10:41] <Matt189> ok, this is what I get: http://apt-get-problems.pastecode.com/39648
[10:41] <jrib> d2dchat: there are a bunch of bindings.  In a shell you can use "notify-send" which comes with the libnotify-bin package
[10:41] <georo>  how i connect with kppp from command line ?
[10:41] <hmhowie> uukchuen: have a look at man gdb. basically you need the core and the executable
[10:41] <wweasel> When doing a full backup of my computer over rsync, which folders should I exclude.  I am thinking /proc, /tmp and /dev - Am I right in my thinking and can anyone think of others?
[10:41] <mnemo> uukchuen: sry i never tried it myself... but you can actually pass a core dump as a parameter to gdb (see "man gdb")
[10:41] <uukchuen>  mnemo: thanx
[10:41] <goalieca> i don't suppose firefox3 will make it into the gutsy backports
[10:41] <busta811> how can i access the  /proc file system?
[10:42] <adamorjames> bruenig http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38285/
[10:42] <arooni> hey folks!
[10:42] <Matt189> hi
[10:42] <macd> !hi | arroni
[10:42] <ubotu> arroni: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:42] <scguy318> Matt189: kindly remove driverloader by doing apt-get remove driverloader
[10:42] <bruenig> adamorjames, ok and dpkg -L gimp24 gives you what?
[10:42] <macd> oops ;P
[10:42] <hmhowie> busta811: you can navigate there. it's just a directory on your file system.
[10:42] <scguy318> Matt189: sudo apt-get...
[10:42] <kitche> busta811, umm cd /proc and cat files
[10:42] <adamorjames> bruenig I got it to work
[10:42] <bruenig> it says it installs in /opt
[10:42] <bruenig> in the description
[10:43] <adamorjames> bruenig /opt/gimp-2.4/bin/gimp-2.4
[10:43] <scguy318> Matt189: and may I ask why you are using Linuxant?
[10:43] <nickrud> Matt189: you'll need to remove that linuxant thing first, then get the headers.  try apt-get remove first
[10:43] <adamorjames> bruenig that makes it work
[10:43] <hmhowie> busta811: if you're looking to echo values to an entry in proc, you'll have to use a terminal
[10:43] <busta811> and how to i navigate there?
[10:43] <macd> adamorjames, you can also add that to your applications menu
[10:43] <bruenig> adamorjames, yes if you had paid attention when you installed it originally you would have realized that it installs in /opt
[10:43] <nickrud> oh, scguy318 is faster than I ;)
[10:43] <adamorjames> ok macd
[10:43] <Matt189> anyone who mentioned: I have no idea what linuxant is :P and I've removed driverloader :)
[10:43] <arooni> i have a 100GB drive on my laptop;  right now i have 60GB of free space physically next to my /home partition.  i want to combine the free space into my /home partition but when i try via gparted i can't because i guess its mounted.  i have already backed up my data... and i have booted off ubuntu 7.10 cd because i thought i could maybe combine  partitions there.  what should i do?
[10:43] <ndube> this is a test
[10:43] <adamorjames> bruenig sorry I'm still new xD
[10:43] <busta811> in the website is says to type this 	cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_moderate_rcvbuf but nothing happens
[10:44] <wweasel> Guys? I am writing a script to backup my filesystem over rsync.  Which folders are sensible to include? I think: /proc /tmp /dev   - any other suggestions?
[10:44] <Invisionfree> !nvu > Invisionfree
[10:44] <bruenig> adamorjames, yes I just mean to say in the future
[10:44] <macd> arooni, unmount the partition to make the changes while in the livecd
[10:44] <hmhowie> busta811: have you opened a terminal?
[10:44] <adamorjames> ok bruenig
[10:44] <nickrud> wweasel: leave out all of those, they're dynamic
[10:44] <macd> arooni, so start gparted, then right click that partition unmount, then resize.
[10:44] <CorkyCatcher007> need help fixing sound in ubuntu feisty fawn 7.04 running on a asus A7M notebook
[10:44] <kitche> wweasel, don't need /proc since it's just tmpfs which means it's all in memory
[10:44] <busta811> ya
[10:44] <busta811> ya
[10:44] <CorkyCatcher007> need help fixing sound in ubuntu feisty fawn 7.04 running on a asus A7M notebook
[10:44] <scguy318> Matt189: Linuxant seems to be the creator of the driverloader, which is something I don't think you need
[10:44] <scguy318> Matt189: does ndiswrapper not work for you?
[10:44] <Invisionfree> How can I check my Ubuntu version?..
[10:45] <jrib> !version > Invisionfree (read the private message from ubotu)
[10:45] <andy_> I just installed nivida drivers from apt-get install nvidia-glx-new, but i cant seem to get the x-server to start because of this error: my nvidia kernel module( 1.0-9755 ) does not match with my X module( 1.0-9631 ) what should I do? :S
[10:45] <macd> Invisionfree, 'cat /etc/lsb-release'
[10:45] <wweasel> Haha, bad typo. I meant exclude. I listed the ones I'm thinking of excluding :P
[10:45] <arooni> macd, so basically i need to boot off the live cd right
[10:45] <d2dchat> jrib, that's slick!
[10:45] <macd> arooni, yessir
[10:45] <CorkyCatcher007> Invisionfree, System > info or something
[10:45] <arooni> macd, i cant do it from text install correct?
[10:45] <xero9364> Invisionfree, System > About Ubuntu
[10:45] <jrib> Matt189, scguy318: linuxant does drivers for conexant modems
[10:45] <Web-Kanotix203> change AGP card how to reconfigure DGM?
[10:45] <CorkyCatcher007> Invisionfree, System > about ubuntu/kubuntu/edubuntu
[10:45] <Invisionfree> Wtf
[10:45] <macd> arooni, you can, but its much easier using the gui to be honest
[10:45] <wweasel> nickrud, kitche: Those are the ones I should exclude? Any other dynamic folders that should be excluded?
[10:45] <Invisionfree> Jrib
[10:45] <CorkyCatcher007> need help fixing sound in ubuntu feisty fawn 7.04 running on a asus A7M notebook
[10:45] <scguy318> jrib: ah
[10:45] <hmhowie> busta811: so what do you see if you enter "cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_moderate_rcvbuf" ?
[10:46] <scguy318> jrib: aren't there Conexant drivers in restricted?
[10:46] <nickrud> wweasel: leave out sys as well
[10:46] <Matt189> scguy318:  my wifi card, finds networks but can't connect to them so I tried to use ndiswrapper, but couldn't find the drivers
[10:46] <davebuntu> arooni: I am no expert but I am currently installing feisty and just went through the process of dealing with parititons. You would have to select each partition and hit delete. then you would have to use the freespace to create a new partition.
[10:46] <scguy318> Matt189: wut card
[10:46] <arooni> macd, maybe i should download a live cd and try it that way
[10:46] <Matt189> I'll get the model number
[10:46] <busta811> nothing happens
[10:46] <wweasel> nickrud: What is /sys?
[10:46] <jrib> scguy318: maybe for some, but the linuxant ones cost money so I doubt they are in restricted
[10:46] <macd> arooni, its easier than writing down inode numbers and hoping you get it right for sure ;)
[10:46] <Web-Kanotix203> change AGP card how to reconfigure DGM? will "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" work?
[10:47] <arooni> macd, you've already sold me ;p
[10:47] <Matt189> 02:04.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1620 PC Card Controller (rev 01) is that it?
[10:47] <macd> arooni, did you get all your thinkpad issues sorted finally?
[10:47] <scguy318> wweasel: sysfs is a virtual file system that allows processes to get information about devices and interact with the kernel
[10:47] <panosru> hi, can someone give me the command to check my graphic card driver version
[10:47] <nickrud> wweasel: a dynamic description of the hardware & related stuff
[10:47] <hmhowie> busta811: you should see either the number '0' or the number '1'
[10:47] <arooni> macd, pretty much.  i decided to install gutsy on it... and for the most part it works flawlessly
[10:47] <Matt189> it's either that or: SAFECOM SWLCT-54125
[10:47] <macd> excellent
[10:47] <busta811> oh ya a number 1 come out
[10:47] <scguy318> Matt189: both info is good moment
[10:48] <hmhowie> busta811: a-ha :)
[10:48] <scguy318> Matt189: you haven't gone to their site to get a Windows driver?
[10:48] <jamison> where can i look for Lexmark printer drivers for ubuntu?
[10:48] <hmhowie> busta811: that means that auto-tuning is switched on
[10:48] <wweasel> nickrud: so /sys and /dev (and /tmp and /proc for that matter) are all dynamic..meaning that every time I reboot they are recreated from scratch?
[10:48] <Matt189> scguy318: I did that, and it didn't contain an .inf
[10:48] <busta811> how i turn it of?
[10:48] <nickrud> wweasel: yes
[10:48] <scguy318> Matt189: I see two drivers, a Windows and Linux, lemme check both
[10:48] <Invisionfree> How do I run kompozer
[10:49] <wweasel> nickrud: Alright, thanks for your help :)
[10:49] <Invisionfree> Nervermid
[10:49] <hmhowie> busta811: if you want to turn it off, i imagine you have to do the following:
[10:49] <Matt189> scguy318: I ran the linux one once, and I think it caused all my problems :(
[10:49] <scguy318> Matt189: ah, nicely tucked away in InstallShield cabs :(
[10:49] <gunnar_> Hello,  I have two sound cards one on the motherboard and an Audigy.  I booted my computer up this morning and I had no sound.  I have no Idea why.  I tried to reconfigure it with the asoundconf command and still have no luck.  Thanks.
[10:49] <hmhowie> busta811: sudo echo "0" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_moderate_rcvbuf
[10:50] <Matt189> scguy318: ah I see, is there any way to extract them?
[10:50] <nickrud> gunnar_: are you using the audigy? if so, the simplest fix is disabling the motherboard sound in bios
[10:50] <busta811> it says permession denied..
[10:50] <scguy318> Matt189: there are tools, lemme see
[10:50] <bruenig> busta811, he means echo "0" | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_moderate_rcvbuf
[10:50] <hmhowie> busta811: and if all hell breaks loose, echo a "1" there back again
[10:50] <Matt189> scguy318: ok thanks :)
[10:50] <g-hennux> any chance to have acroread speak german with me?
[10:50] <g-hennux> or "talk german to" :-)
[10:50] <busta811> says permession denied
[10:50] <hmhowie> bruenig: my version will work too :)
[10:51] <bruenig> hmhowie, redirection is done by the shell, he does not have permission
[10:51] <gunnar_> nickrud: I have tried that.  Still didn't work.
[10:51] <hmhowie> bruenig: oh, of course. sorry :)
[10:51] <adamorjames> bye bruenig and macd
[10:51] <Asmudeus> ubuntu works fine cooool :D
[10:51] <nickrud> gunnar_: I'll ask another stupid question then: you've checked alsamixer ;)
[10:51] <busta811> i typed that bruenig said and the 0 came out
[10:51] <Asmudeus> my first time wirh linux
[10:51] <duracell> server irc.dedibox.fr
[10:51] <duracell> oups
[10:52] <hmhowie> busta811: then autotuning has now been switched off
[10:52] <gunnar_> Yup.  Starts up with the Audigy as the default sound card.  Still no sound.
[10:52] <scguy318> Matt189: ok, i6comp extracts succesfully (I'm on Windows for the moment)
[10:52] <busta811> ok then how do i "tune" now?
[10:53] <Matt189> scguy318: any chance you could upload them somewhere or send them to me? :)
[10:53] <scguy318> Matt189: the Ubuntu repos have a program called unshield I think
[10:53] <nickrud> gunnar_: . Then I've reached my limit on sound, those two work about 25% of the time
[10:53] <scguy318> Matt189: it might work for you, else I'll just ZIP it and upload somewhere
[10:53] <hmhowie> busta811: carry on reading the guide :)
[10:53] <Matt189> scguy318: apt-get install unshield ?
[10:53] <gunnar_> nickrud : Thanks.
[10:53] <wweasel> Can someone help me with rsync's --exclude syntax? The man page is vague. As per previous questions, I'd like to exclude /tmp, /dev, /proc and /sys.  How do I specify multiple exclusions though?
[10:54] <hmhowie> busta811: if you want to type the commands as listed in the guide, you first have to log in as root. to do this, enter "sudo -i" and then your password
[10:54] <scguy318> Matt189: with sudo of course, yes
[10:54] <scguy318> Matt189: where would you like me to upload?
[10:54] <busta811> ok
[10:55] <busta811> when i type 	cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_moderate_rcvbuf the 0 comes out and thats all
[10:55] <Matt189> scguy318: I don't mind, where ever suits you best :)
[10:55] <sirjoebob> hello all. i am using gkrellm and im using gkrellmkam and can not figure out how to set an image list. anyone know how?
[10:55] <alex_> anyone know why my information bubbles would be black?
[10:55] <sirjoebob> alex: system color settings?
[10:56] <alex_> sirjoebob: its just a black blob...
[10:56] <scguy318> Matt189: once unshield is installed, you would cd to where the InstallShield files are
[10:56] <hmhowie> busta811: that's as it should be. "cat" will just tell you the contents of the file.
[10:56] <jugimaster> OK, so I'm running a torrent, and my upload bandwith keeps fluctuating wildly basically all through its possible range (0 -  ca. 110k/s)..   - Can anyone think of a reason what might be causing this?  -  Earlier I edited my /etc/hosts, but it should be back to normal now..
[10:56] <scguy318> Matt189: then just do unshield x Data1.cab
[10:56] <scguy318> Matt189: something like that
[10:56] <Gregord> /join #gentoo
[10:57] <Matt189> scguy318: x is the dir? or -x?
[10:57] <sirjoebob> alex: not sure. maybe text and bg are black? i am just taking shots in the dark on this one.
[10:57] <alex_> sirjoebob: my system color settings are in...?
[10:57] <busta811> what i gotta do to see the files?
[10:57] <scguy318> Matt189: just x, its a paramter to unshield that tells it to extract
[10:57] <sirjoebob> alex: system>preferences>themes
[10:57] <scguy318> Matt189: you of course have to cd to where the InstallShield CABs are
[10:57] <scguy318> Matt189: and http://rapidshare.com/files/57543532/data1.zip.html
[10:57] <scguy318> Matt189: if you don't want to do the work
[10:57] <Gregord> /join
[10:58] <Matt189> scguy318:  it worked, thanks :)
[10:58] <hmhowie> busta811: that is the file :) the number "0" :) (to be exact it's a pseudo filesystem and actually contains values of variables stored in the kernel and not files)
[10:58] <alex_> sirjoebob: ugh... no dice. thanks anyways
[10:58] <scguy318> Matt189: after you install the driver via sudo ndiswrapper -i TNET1130.INF
[10:58] <busta811> o
[10:58] <scguy318> Matt189: check what ndiswrapper -l sez
[10:59] <sirjoebob> alex_: sorry. cant think of anything else..
[10:59] <Matt189> scguy318: ok, doing now :)
[10:59] <hmhowie> busta811: think of it as a way for you to interact directly with the kernel while it's running
[10:59] <Gregord> Sorry about previous comments
[10:59] <busta811> it says this in the guide All system parameters can be read or set by accessing special files in the /proc file system.  E.g.:
[11:00] <ShiftyPowers> hey all, quick question...i want to upgrade my HTPC from edgy to feisty
[11:01] <flaco> hi... I'm going to reinstall ubuntu.. my home folder is in other partition.. how can I 'link" the home folder to the new installation ?
[11:01] <ShiftyPowers> is the best way to do it via update-manager?
[11:01] <ShiftyPowers> i don't want to fresh install because i have a lot of things already set up
[11:01] <jrib> flaco: just edit fstab after your install is finished
[11:01] <macd> ShiftyPowers, yes that is the best way.
[11:01] <jrib> !upgrade > ShiftyPowers (read the private message from ubotu)
[11:02] <ShiftyPowers> jrib, thanks
[11:02] <Matt189> scguy318: tnet1130 : driver installed   device (104C:9066) present (alternate driver: acx)
[11:02] <cypher1> flaco, during installation you will be able to mention the partition to use as /home
[11:02] <busta811> ok i found another guide
[11:02] <jrib> cypher1: are you sure that won't format his old /home?
[11:02] <jugimaster> hey umm..   what do i need to do (besides apt-get install) to get ntfs-3g to work its magic?
[11:02] <flaco> cypher,jrib: thks :)
[11:02] <Matt189> scguy318: how would I use the driver?
[11:02] <busta811> but when i type /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max it says permession denied..
[11:02] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > jugimaster (read the private message from ubotu)
[11:02] <scguy318> Matt189: just a question
[11:03] <scguy318> Matt189: before you did all this, the card no work at all?
[11:03] <cypher1> jrib, i think you have the option of not to reformat the partition
[11:03] <kitche> !sudo | busta811
[11:03] <ubotu> busta811: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:03] <Matt189> scguy318: it kinda worked, it found networks, but wouldn't connect
[11:03] <scguy318> Matt189: ah, ok
[11:03] <Matt189> I'm on an ethernet cable atm
[11:03] <Asmudeus> cypher1: bist du der den ich kenne?
[11:03] <scguy318> Matt189: well, based on your output, it looks like you need to blacklist the native acx driver
[11:03] <scguy318> Matt189: do this (gimme a moment)
[11:03] <cypher1> flaco, be sure to select not to reformat
[11:03] <jrib> cypher1: ah ok, flaco just make sure it's clear to you then that it won't be formatted and cypher1's suggestion sounds like the best in that case
[11:03] <busta811> so i type sudo /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max?
[11:03] <jamison> i have two sound cards. can't disable either via BIOS. how can i disable one in ubuntu?
[11:04] <scguy318> Matt189: echo 'blacklist acx' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[11:04] <kitche> busta811, no you can just cat /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max
[11:04] <hmhowie> busta811: you're really trying to run before you can crawl here. i'd recommend you spend a couple of hours working through a tutorial on how to use the shell
[11:04] <Dr_willis> busta811,  thats most likely a file you read. :) not an 'exexutable'
[11:04] <Matt189> blacklist acx
[11:04] <kitche> busta811, if you want to add soemthing you would do sudo echo " what you want" > <files>
[11:04] <cypher1> flaco, if you are afraid to do so, you can always modify your /etc/fstab after installation -- but this may need lot of other changes i guess
[11:04] <Matt189> scguy318: I get that
[11:04] <busta811> whats the shell lol?
[11:04] <scguy318> Matt189: then, what are you using to manage your wireless connection? nm-applet? or network-admin?
[11:05] <kitche> !shell | busta811
[11:05] <ubotu> busta811: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[11:05] <Matt189> I'm using the network-manager thing, should I install something else?
[11:05] <busta811> so i type sudo echo /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max?
[11:05] <scguy318> Matt189: that's just fine
[11:05] <underwatercow> After Gutsy releases, is there a way to start receiving updates for the next release?
[11:05] <hmhowie> busta811: the shell, also called a terminal, a console or a line discipline :)
[11:05] <busta811> o
[11:05] <kitche> busta811, no
[11:05] <scguy318> Matt189: you do mean the GNOME applet?
[11:05] <fyrestrtr> busta811: no.
[11:05] <busta811> so what i hae to type?
[11:05] <busta811> have
[11:05] <scguy318> Matt189: n/m, dumb question, yes
[11:05] <Matt189> scguy318: I'm in kde atm, it came with it
[11:05] <fyrestrtr> underwatercow: the relase has to be announced first.
[11:06] <jugimaster> well, i ran the ntfs-config tool, but instead of showing me my drives, it went straight to the two checkboxes ("write support for internal .. / .. external device")
[11:06] <Matt189> Knetworkmanager
[11:06] <mody> Hi all, my Ubuntu don't mount the USB stick or recognize it - when I plug it, it returns "Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume " - anybody can advise me
[11:06] <scguy318> Matt189: do sudo depmod -a
[11:06] <scguy318> Matt189: then sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[11:06] <underwatercow> fyrestrtr: I figured, just curious how I would once it is
[11:06] <fyrestrtr> underwatercow: but since it is based on debian and gnome -- you can check them to see when is their next 'unstable' release.
[11:06] <Matt189> scguy318: done :)
[11:06] <fyrestrtr> underwatercow: well, there'd have to be some files released, then you just change your repositories to point to the new release, and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and wait for things to break.
[11:07] <scguy318> Matt189: now do sudo ndiswrapper -m
[11:07] <CaBlGuY> !gutsy
[11:07] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[11:07] <busta811> ohh
[11:07] <underwatercow> fyrestrtr: lol, thanks
[11:07] <scguy318> Matt189: and since you said that you are using the Network Manager, you should do
[11:07] <scguy318> Matt189: gksudo gedit /etc/modules
[11:07] <Matt189> adding "alias wlan0 ndiswrapper" to /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper ...
[11:07] <busta811> i typed cat cat /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max and it showed me a number but how do i change it?
[11:07] <scguy318> Matt189: then add the word ndiswrapper to the end of the file (on its own line of course)
[11:08] <uukchuen> someone could help me with gdb? I have to find out why programs and gnome segfault!
[11:08] <Matt189> scguy318: done :)
[11:09] <scguy318> Matt189: then test your network card now, if still the same reboot
[11:09] <hmhowie> busta811: if you're logged on as root ("whoami"), echo "<new value>" > <path to file>

[11:14] <Dr_willis> andy_,  its possible your kernel you booted is not matching up version wise with the drivers that got installed. (which would be odd)
[11:15] <avt3kk> Andy I was in efnet xbox room for like a week asking before I got good help
[11:15] <macd> andy_, you had the nvidia drivers from the nvidia website isntalled first right?
[11:15] <andy_> macd:  yes
[11:15] <hmhowie> busta811: exactly :)
[11:15] <macd> andy_, and you uninstalled those before using apt to install nvidia-glx ?
[11:15] <lazaruslupine> exit

[11:29] <scguy318> Matt: hmm, I guess just do sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx

[11:29] <PriceChild> Seilo, /msg nickserv identify <password>

[11:29] <andrew____> should that work?
[11:29] <scguy318> Matt: are there any broken packages?
[11:29] <PriceChild> pkern, gutsy discussion _ONLY_ in #ubuntu+1

[11:29] <|Matt|> scguy318: most probably >.< how would I fix them?
[11:29] <andrew____> sorry nick, what do you mean?

[11:30] <scguy318> Matt: then just remove
[11:30] <undauntedspirit> avt3kk:  Chat rooms work fine for me using Pidgin 2.2.0
[11:30] <nickrud> andrew, just say   skype  , it's all you need. /usr/bin/skype is the path
[11:30] <andy_> macd:  I recommend to do an updatedb and then do things like "locate libGL" to find the files.
[11:30] <andrew____> oh geat
[11:30] <andrew____> thats easy thanks
[11:30] <narothepharoh> does any one know how to convert a .daa file to iso image

[11:30] <undauntedspirit> avt3kk:  Sends you to a website to enter some numbers and then lets you chat.
[11:30] <bobesponja> is there and apt command to locate a file installed by a package?
[11:31] <PriceChild> bobesponja, "dpkg -S" or apt-file maybe?

[11:31] <avt3kk> yes it does :D
[11:31] <nickrud> bobesponja: dpkg -L <pkg>   dpkg -S file
[11:31] <cypher1> undauntedspirit, pidgin !?
[11:31] <avt3kk> ty undauntedspirit
[11:31] <macd> andy_, he means run 'sudo updatedb' , then issue the command 'locate libGL*' and delete those listed files.
[11:31] <bobesponja> thanx
[11:31] <PriceChild> andrew____, which one are you using? (there are a few)
[11:31] <noelferreira> why can't i have both sound on my system and in a player to watch tv for example? I have a onboard sound system. With a pci board everything works fine. any help?
[11:31] <jugimaster> are wlan connections fully enabled by default ?
[11:31] <andrew____> pricechild: i just got it from 'add/remove programs'
[11:31] <macd> bobesponja, also 'dpkg -L packagename' lists all files installed by the package
[11:31] <seiflotfy> how do i regfster a nick
[11:32] <TUXedomember> can any one help me hook up my ti-89ti, i all ready have the tilp but it's giving me problems
[11:32] <narothepharoh> does any one know how to convert a .daa file to iso image?
[11:32] <undauntedspirit> cypher1: Yeah, pidgin, used to be gaim.
[11:32] <macd> !register | seiflotfy
[11:32] <scguy318> seiflotfy: /ns register pass
[11:32] <ubotu> seiflotfy: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[11:32] <busta811> how can i change the value in this file  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_default_ttl?
[11:32] <nickrud> !register | seiflotfy
[11:32] <cypher1> undauntedspirit, oh didnt knew
[11:32] <andrew____> also i still need to configure the gmail notifier to point to firefox
[11:32] <seiflotfy> !register | seiflotfy
[11:32] <cypher1> undauntedspirit, but is it in the repos ?
[11:32] <macd> busta811, the same way youve changed all the other ones.
[11:32] <scguy318> narothepharoh: .daa is disgusting proprietary PowerISO, best bet is to use it on Wine or something :(
[11:32] <PriceChild> andrew____, what's the name of the package you used?
[11:32] <PriceChild> andrew____, there are a couple...
[11:32] <andrew____> let me check
[11:32] <|Matt|> scguy318: I'm installing synaptic :)
[11:33] <georo> can some one help me?
[11:33] <scguy318> Matt: kk
[11:33] <narothepharoh> scguy what is wine?
[11:33] <soulfreshner> how do I set up a minimal system - basically only the packages in ubuntu-minimal?
[11:33] <undauntedspirit> cypher1: No -- Got it from getdeb.net
[11:33] <busta811> like this "echo 128 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_default_ttl"?
[11:33] <andrew____> its called gmail noitfy
[11:33] <jugimaster> what happens if i have a normal wired connection that i use,  and a WLAN chip on the motherboard which is in roaming mode (automatically, it seems..  and it refuses to stay off?) ?
[11:33] <scguy318> !wine | narothepharoh
[11:33] <ubotu> narothepharoh: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:33] <PriceChild> soulfreshner, you'll probably want ubuntu-standard
[11:33] <J_P> hi all
[11:33] <andrew____> Version: 1.6.1-3 (gmail-notify)
[11:33] <macd> soulfreshner, ubuntu server install pretty much fits that bill.
[11:33] <cypher1> undauntedspirit, ok great thank you
[11:33] <andrew____> ah so i guess i have to add gmail-notify!
[11:33] <nickrud> georo: have you found the login yet?
[11:33] <andrew____> duh!
[11:33] <undauntedspirit> cypher1: no prob
[11:33] <PriceChild> andrew____, ok you should just be able to add gmailnotify to system > admin > startup
[11:33] <Dr_willis> soulfreshner,  i saw some ubuntu-minimal disrto/package site the other day that did just that.  using a mini installer and a network install I think.
[11:34] <busta811> how do i log in as root again?
[11:34] <sh3l1> how do i update to gnome 2.20?
[11:34] <andrew____> pricechild: dojnt you mean: system preferences sessions
[11:34] <J_P> what is wrong with this command: "route add -net 192.168.50.4 netmask 255.255.255.248 gw 192.168.50.2" ?
[11:34] <PriceChild> !sudo | busta811
[11:34] <ubotu> busta811: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:34] <soulfreshner> Dr_willis, that was almost what I was looking for - but it was a bit too minimal
[11:34] <macd> busta811, dont, use sudo instead.
[11:34] <PriceChild> andrew____, bah yes sorry :)
[11:34] <soulfreshner> Dr_willis, It doesn't even install the kernel...
[11:34] <d4rkmonkey> sh3l1 are you using Feisty?
[11:34] <busta811> ok
[11:34] <andy_> macd: I found /usr/lib/libGL.so.1   /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1.3.060502  /usr/lib/libGL.so.100.14.19  /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1    /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.100.14.19
[11:34] <andy_> macd:  Should i delete all containing libGL...?
[11:34] <|Matt|> scguy318: I did fix broken packages, and it did nothing
[11:34] <andrew____> PC: my last question for now is the browser path
[11:34] <macd> andy_, you dont need to paste me all that, just follow the instructions on that link.
[11:35] <busta811> it says permession denied when i type this echo 128 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_default_ttl
[11:35] <andrew____> for the gmail notifier
[11:35] <soulfreshner> is there some way to *uninstall* everything but what is in ubuntu-minimal?
[11:35] <georo> can some one help me?
[11:35] <scguy318> Matt: nothing? hmm, guess just try to install nvidia-glx again
[11:35] <andrew____> is it just /usr/bin/firefox ?
[11:35] <MrPink> !ask
[11:35] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:35] <Dr_willis> soulfreshner,  heh..  perhaps a check of their docs. i guess.. unnstalling everything.. sounds nasty
[11:35] <d4rkmonkey> !ask | georo
[11:35] <ubotu> georo: please see above
[11:35] <PriceChild> andrew____, firefox should do it
[11:35] <stefan__> hi guys
[11:35] <scguy318> narothepharoh: know that PowerISO is payware, so you may have to look around if your daa file is big
[11:35] <bruenig> busta811, I just told you about ten minutes ago to do echo 128 | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipv_default_ttl
[11:35] <andy_> macd:  k
[11:36] <georo> ubotu i try to login but no screen i can`t access to my desktop
[11:36] <busta811> oo sorry didnt see
[11:36] <georo> i try to login but no screen i can`t access to my desktop
[11:36] <soulfreshner> hmmmm.... synaptic...select all...click ubuntu-minimal --- I think I'm off to break something
[11:36] <soulfreshner> bbl
[11:36] <scguy318> Matt: i'll brb a moment
[11:36] <macd> andy_,  delete all the files that locate comes up with when you search for those 3 different types. to remove them, 'sudo rm /path/to/file'\
[11:36] <macd> minus the \
[11:36] <|Matt|> scguy318: ok :)
[11:36] <andrew____> ok now i'm in business
[11:36] <warren_> Hello...I need help with XGL...everytime I start an XGL Session....
[11:36] <warren_> My screen looks like this:  http://www.vampsworld.com/Screenshot.png
[11:37] <hon> I have exim4 installed. Is configuring exim configs the right thing to do in order to have mailx use, say, me@gmail.com and their smtp as delivery?
[11:37] <user_> Excuse me. How do I install opengl (including the development libraries) to work with gcc?
[11:37] <macd> bruenig, and every other file to change a value in ;)
[11:37] <blessid> wow
[11:37] <MrPink> georo, you have your login screen, where you have to enter your username and password?
[11:37] <blessid> warren_ XGL pwnd ur video card
[11:37] <blessid> lol
[11:37] <andrew____> also does anyone have any advice for me, my laptop battery is not recognized by ubuntu
[11:37] <georo> i try to login but no screen i can`t access to my desktop
[11:37] <chrissturm> is there a list of compiz hotkeys somewhere?
[11:37] <andrew____> is there any general help, or is this all specific for my laptop
[11:37] <sh3l1> d4rkmonkey, i think so
[11:38] <sh3l1> d4rkmonkey, is that the newest one?
[11:38] <macd> user_, try from console, 'apt-cache search opengl | grep dev' that should show you all the opengl dev packages.
[11:38] <blessid> chrissturm in the conpiz config under tabs called Bindings
[11:38] <MrPink> can you access the Terminal ?
[11:38] <Dr_willis> andrew__,  you mean to say the various power-level tools are not showing the battery power level?
[11:38] <user_> macd thank you. I'll try that.
[11:38] <d4rkmonkey> sh3l1 its the newest release, you could use gutsy if you wanted to, but its not released until october
[11:38] <VWJ1bnR1> Why isn't my modem working?
[11:38] <sh3l1> d4rkmonkey, is there any way to just update w/o updating the whole os?
[11:39] <TUXedomember> can some1 help me set up tilp to see my ti-89ti?
[11:39] <d4rkmonkey> sh3l1 if gnome 2.20 isn't in the repos, its probably better to just wait until it is, or until gutsy comes out
[11:39] <warren_> XGL powned my video card?  what does that mean?
[11:39] <sh3l1> d4rkmonkey, ok
[11:39] <d4rkmonkey> sh3l1 are you sure it isn't already updated?
[11:39] <sh3l1> TUXedomember, sure
[11:39] <warren_> my screen looks like this in XGL: http://www.vampsworld.com/Screenshot.png
[11:39] <blessid> i was just kidding
[11:39] <MrPink> lol :D
[11:39] <sh3l1> d4rkmonkey, i don't know, wasn't gnome 2.20 just released??
[11:39] <andrew____> oh thats my other question
[11:39] <andrew____> how do i install gnome 2.2
[11:40] <d4rkmonkey> sh3l1 yeah, but in Ubuntu any packages from the repositories (gnome will be one) should update automatically
[11:40] <PriceChild> andrew____, don't
[11:40] <andrew____> i want to check out the new monitor features
[11:40] <d4rkmonkey> sh3l1 I'm not sure if its in the feisty repos though
[11:40] <andrew____> why do you say that pc
[11:40] <andy_> macd: k, uninstalled everything now
[11:40] <tkd> whats the command to move a folder in terminal????
[11:40] <blessid> warren_ what video card are you using?
[11:40] <PriceChild> andrew____, because there is no easy way.
[11:40] <sh3l1> d4rkmonkey, ok, so i just have to wait for them to add it as an update
[11:40] <chrissturm> blessid: where can i find that in gutsy?
[11:40] <warren_> ATI Radeon 9550
[11:40] <undauntedspirit> tkd: mv
[11:40] <andrew____> i saw a thing on digg that shows you can have more options with your monitors
[11:40] <PriceChild> !gutsy | chrissturm
[11:40] <ubotu> chrissturm: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[11:40] <MrPink> mvdir
[11:40] <andrew____> and i want that cause i have a laptop but sometimes ii hook it up to my CRT
[11:40] <d4rkmonkey> sh3l1 yeah, thats probably the best way, might not be until upgrade to gutsy, but that comes out in october anyways, so its not gonna be a huge wait
[11:40] <scguy318> Matt: i'm back
[11:40] <andrew____> and i always have to switch resolutions and stuff
[11:40] <user_> I'm still lost. All I need is to use the general <gl/gl.h> <gl/glu.h> <gl/glaux.h> files.
[11:41] <|Matt|> scguy318: cool
[11:41] <VWJ1bnR1> Can anyone help me get my modem working.  It worked before I reinstalled my system.
[11:41] <VWJ1bnR1> ?
[11:41] <blessid> System>Preferences>CompizConfig
[11:41] <sh3l1> d4rkmonkey, thanks
[11:41] <andy_> When I'm in synaptic package manger tho, i still see nvidia-kernel-common and nvidia-kernel source installed, should I remove them aswell?
[11:41] <andrew____> and also if i unplug from my crt, and plug it back in, it won't send video again
[11:41] <tkd> MrPing  no switches or anything
[11:41] <tkd> ?
[11:41] <andrew____> i have to startup with the CRT plugged in
[11:41] <g-hennux> i am installing a via graphics driver and have to compile that. in a line that says: "tmp = (OffMemRange *) MALLOC(OffMemRange);" i get a compile error saying: "error: expected expression before OffMemRange" - any idea what i missed?
[11:41] <tkd> err MrPink
[11:41] <sh3l1> TUXedomember, i'll try and set mine up at the same time as you
[11:41] <|Matt|> scguy318: do I need to install nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-legacy ?
[11:41] <scguy318> Matt: just nvidia-glx
[11:41] <g-hennux> probably it doesn't now what to do with MALLOC?
[11:41] <d4rkmonkey> andrew____ isn't that xorg, not gnome?
[11:41] <Merlin--> hi guys
[11:41] <|Matt|> scguy318: ok :)
[11:41] <macd> andy_, yeah remove those and then run one more command then reboot sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-kernel-`uname -r`
[11:41] <user_> Excuse me. How do I install opengl (including the development libraries) to work with gcc?
[11:41] <TUXedomember> sh3l1 thnxz
[11:41] <MrPink> tkd what do you mean switches?
[11:41] <andrew____> oh i dont know...
[11:41] <Merlin--> anybody able to help with squid ?
[11:41] <blessid> chrissturn: System>Preferences>CompizConfig
[11:41] <andrew____> i just saw a screenshot of gnome 2.20 and it looked like it had some features i could use
[11:42] <Merlin--> troubleshooting squid ?
[11:42] <macd> actualy dont run that command, it should reconfigure after removing those 2.
[11:42] <scguy318> Matt: if this should fail, and falling back to nv no work, then of course vesa, if you didn't already know :)
[11:42] <tkd> MrPink -r for recursive or something?
[11:42] <georo> i try to login but no screen i can`t access to my desktop
[11:42] <uukchuen> I have programs and gnome segfault, I have no clue why, someone could help?
[11:42] <macd> andy_,  actually dont run that command, it should reconfigure after removing those 2.
[11:42] <MrPink> man mvdir  gives you all the options possible
[11:42] <d4rkmonkey> andrew____ its probably just better to wait...
[11:42] <andrew____> alright
[11:42] <user_> How do I install opengl (including the development libraries) to work with gcc?
[11:42] <PriceChild> andrew____, ubuntu is frozen at release and only critical bug and security fixes make it into updates. Gnome 2.20 will be in gutsy in october.
[11:42] <andy_> macd:  k
[11:42] <MrPink> -r should be recursive if I remember right... but just check
[11:42] <tkd> MrPing mvdir will move folder and all subfolders?

[11:42] <andrew____> i see

[11:42] <andrew____> i have feisty
[11:42] <macd> user_, did you find the ones you want to install? 'sudo apt-get install packagename'
[11:42] <bluebanana> Hi, I have an old HP LaserJet 5P printer that I've received. It doesn't comet with a USB cable. My computer has only USB ports, and no parallel ports. I called a computer store and they said that they sell a parallel to USB converter/cable, but they don't recommend it.
[11:42] <blessid> chrissturm: System>Preferences>CompizConfig
[11:42] <bluebanana> What do you guys think?
[11:42] <andy_> macd:  So I'll just reinstall the nvidia-glx drivers with apt now, or?
[11:43] <georo> i try to login but no screen i can`t access to my desktop no screen no booting
[11:43] <Dr_willis> To whoever it was going on about the Yahoo Chat rooms/web verification thing.. It just worked for me in Pidgin Under Gutsy. :) I did have to try 3 times to get the darn 'enter the letters' right. :)
[11:43] <scguy318> bluebanana: doesn't hurt to try it
[11:43] <bluebanana> Will a Parallel to USB cable/converter not allow mo to print? Will it cause me many problems?
[11:43] <andrew____> so the last thing that doesnt work is my usb webcam
[11:43] <macd> andy_, after you removed the other 2 in synaptic, reboot.
[11:43] <andrew____> other than that ubuntu rocks
[11:43] <blessid> iam using Feisty
[11:43] <user_> macd I found various opengl-based libraries. I didn't see plain opengl.
[11:43] <PriceChild> !doesn't work | andrew____
[11:43] <Blackgoth> bluebanana: I have a usb to com/lpt cable, and it works fine here
[11:43] <ubotu> andrew____: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[11:43] <macd> user_, what you see there is what you have to choose from.
[11:43] <andy_> macd:  K, I'll brb,:)
[11:43] <bluebanana> Blackgoth, for your printer?
[11:43] <andrew____> haha
[11:43] <andrew____> alright
[11:43] <Blackgoth> for my cisco terminals
[11:43] <andrew____> well it shows up when i do lsusb
[11:43] <bluebanana> Blackgoth, com/lpt is the same as parallel ?
[11:43] <Blackgoth> but a printer isnt a a problem
[11:43] <Blackgoth> lpt is parallel
[11:43] <andrew____> and there is a website that says it works under UVL
[11:44] <user_> macd. Have you ever coded opengl in Ubuntu?
[11:44] <scguy318> bluebanana: COM = serial, LPT = parallel
[11:44] <frb> how do I watch DVDs on x64 7.04?

[11:44] <user_> macd I see.
[11:44] <|Matt|> scguy318: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38290/ should I delete the file it complains about?
[11:44] <d4rkmonkey> frb then try using that, it uninstalls totem-gstreamer though, shouldn't be a problem.
[11:44] <frb> d4rkmonkey: the only part I don't have is libdvdcss2
[11:45] <andrew____> oh true.  sorry about that yeah i forgot there are like a thousand people in here

[11:45] <andrew____> can anyone take a look at this page http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/ and maybe help me get my webcam working?
[11:45] <macd> user_, commercial opengl development libraries arent included in ubuntu., only the free mesa implementation
[11:45] <MrPink> tdk its "sudo mv folder destination"
[11:45] <uukchuen> I have programs and gnome segfault, I have no clue why, someone could help?
[11:45] <frb> Package libdvdcss2 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[11:45] <Tohru> why was i banned from this chat room the other day? im using a friends comp now to access this chat room :(
[11:45] <Blackgoth> VWJ1bnR1: that your modem is busy :)
[11:45] <d4rkmonkey> frb then i have no idea what else you could do.
[11:46] <d4rkmonkey> frb have you tried totem-xine ?
[11:46] <macd> Tohru, you should ask the person that banned you.

[11:48] <scguy318> Matt: sudo dpkg-divert /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1.2.xlibmesa to be safe
[11:49] <warren_> I'm not sure  I will be able to
[11:49] <andrew____> it wont work in camorama or ekiga
[11:49] <|Matt|> scguy318: done, trying to install now :)
[11:49] <jkpython> i'm getting this error can anyone help me out: Makefile:67: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.. Stop.
[11:49] <macd> andy_, just make sure to follow those exactly, and you should have no problems, I used the same mothod for my workstation.
[11:49] <scguy318> PriceChild: aren't UVCs well supported by the spca driver that's integrated in the kernel?
[11:49] <MrPink> warren you can do that from the terminal
[11:49] <scguy318> jkpython: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[11:50] <PriceChild> scguy318, I've lost you
[11:50] <arooni> would */12 * * * * command_done_every_5_minutes   be a command that is executed every 5 minutes  (crontab)
[11:50] <BleedingMoon> http://www.solutionm.com/gnometab/gnometab.html i wnat to download it. what i need to do?
[11:50] <warren_> Yeah, I just can't read the terminal when I'm in that XGL session...it looks like:http://www.vampsworld.com/Screenshot.png
[11:50] <d4rkmonkey> lol
[11:50] <macd> arooni, thats every hour on the 12th minute.
[11:50] <scguy318> PriceChild: i was under the impression that in Ubuntu Feisty, the spca5xxx or w/e kernel module is integrated, so UVC webcams should be well-supported?
[11:50] <d4rkmonkey> oops wrong window... arg.. sorry bout that!
[11:50] <andy_> macd:  When i do yum update I get an error tho, Warning, could not load sqlite, falling back to pickle
[11:50] <PriceChild> scguy318, i guess so
[11:50] <|Matt|> scguy318: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38294/
[11:51] <arooni> macd, i thought it divided * (60 minutes) by 12
[11:51] <macd> andy_, READ the page, thats for fedora, scroll down to uubntu.
[11:51] <MrPink> warren: Alt + Ctrl + F1 gets you in a terminal without a GUI
[11:51] <scguy318> Matt: oh, looks like I missed the other files :P
[11:51] <macd> arooni, well actualy Im wrong, thats every 12 minutes.
[11:51] <CorpseFeeder> d4rkmonkey: ok thanks... and is there any way to make gxine autostart playing too like Totem does?
[11:51] <scguy318> Matt: sudo dpkg-divert --remove /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1
[11:51] <andy_> macd:  omg, sorry haha xD
[11:51] <scguy318> Matt: sudo dpkg-divert --remove /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2
[11:51] <warren_> okay, then what's the command to reconfigure the x server again?
[11:51] <arooni> macd, ok so now its clear what to do to make it every 5 minutes
[11:51] <scguy318> Matt: then sudo dpkg-divert --remove /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libGLcore.so
[11:52] <PriceChild> !xconfig | warren_
[11:52] <ubotu> warren_: 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
