[12:04] <Jordan_U> jstarcher, Check Ebay, or if you have a Costco near you you might have a stupid prices too, that is where scratched and otherwise perfectly usable but unsellable stuff from Costco goes, so think Costco prices, then a whole lot less. I sound like an advertisement but the prices really are stupid :)
[12:04] <nortcele> Is there a way to update to feisty without downloading a new iso and installing it
[12:04] <Red-Sox> Hello, what is a good way to handle large music libraries?
[12:04] <jackfusion> hi all
[12:04] <Red-Sox> I know about AmaroK but that doesn't look great in gnome, any others?
[12:04] <bascule> !distupgrade
[12:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about distupgrade - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:04] <Jordan_U> nortcele, Yes, just use update-manager
[12:04] <nortcele> k
[12:05] <Xero> !dist-upgrade
[12:05] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:05] <Jordan_U> nortcele, If you are on Edgy it should just offer to do it when you open it
[12:05] <bascule> Xero: thanks :)
[12:05] <Xero> bascule, lucky guess.
[12:05] <nortcele> i'm actually on dapper ^_^;;
[12:05] <bascule> heh
[12:05] <Marshal1> Anyone able to help me track down what is keeping me from unlocking my screensaver, when my login works just fine?
[12:05] <nomaS> hi, anybody know why , when im on the gnome partition, it partition 5gb and then makes an error and exit, its something with pc or hard disk ?
[12:06] <Jordan_U> Xero, Just so you know, changing your sources.list and using dist-upgrade is actually not as safe as using update-manager, and is not recommended
[12:06] <Michael_Garvie> nomaS... most likely the disk
[12:06] <soundray> nortcele: from dapper, you'd have to upgrade to edgy first, then to feisty. Consider waiting for a few weeks and do a fresh install of gutsy once it's released.
[12:06] <Xero> Jordan_U, I hate the update manager
[12:06] <Xero> It never does my dist upgrades correctly.
[12:06] <nortcele> alright, thanks for the help
[12:07] <bluebanana> guys, how can i have a music player start playing an mp3 file at X:YZ PM?
[12:07] <nomaS> Michael_Garvie theres nothing to do with it ? to install ubuntu ? :(
[12:07] <Jordan_U> Xero, In what way?
[12:07] <bluebanana> Using terminal is fine with me.
[12:07] <bluebanana> (I'm going to use it as an alarm clock)
[12:07] <Xero> Jordan_U, it screws up my system if I update using it.
[12:07] <nortcele> hmm... another question would be... Anyone had success with running Second Life under ubuntu
[12:07] <Michael_Garvie> nomas... should take about 20 minutes.... no special stuff needed really
[12:07] <Xero> bluebanana, man cron (i don't know how to use it)
[12:07] <Xero> !cron
[12:07] <ubotu> cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[12:07] <soundray> bluebanana: gnome-open file.mp3 | at x.yz
[12:07] <soundray> bluebanana: use 24 hour notation
[12:08] <sethk> cron is good for something that has to happen every day, or every week, or whatever.  "at" is easier to use to make something run just once
[12:08] <m1r> hmhowie bascule , cant i just record file instead of making ISO first ?
[12:08] <jackfusion> Is there a way to find an instance of a key word in a list of files and directories replace it with something else?  Example find /opt/ and replace it with /media/IPOD.
[12:08] <bluebanana> soundray, that's it? looks pretty easy, even for a ubu-baby like me
[12:08] <jstarcher> Jordan_U, you think this would do the trick? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812337035
[12:08] <Cieran> jrib: The download for the 32bit version of Java is going to take half a day. Is there no other way to get Java working in the Ubuntu I currently have?
[12:08] <Xero> bluebanana, Ubuntu is easy.
[12:08] <bluebanana> Xero,  ha ha
[12:08] <Xero> Now Gentoo is another story.
[12:09] <rsk> or LFS.
[12:09] <jrib> Cieran: you mean 32bit version of Ubuntu?
[12:09] <Xero> Oh god. Don't mention those evil letters
[12:09] <bluebanana> gentoo = gen too difficult?
[12:09] <Darkkish> what is the command to mount an NTFS drive? can someone just tell me, i'm sick of trying everything in the manual
[12:09] <Inox> hi
[12:09] <Cieran> jrib: Hah. Yes, I did.
[12:09] <Xero> Gentoohard
[12:09] <bluebanana> ha
[12:09] <Inox> how can I start/stop apache2 on ubuntu?
[12:09] <jrib> Cieran: you want the java plugin, not just java correct?
[12:09] <Jordan_U> Xero, I think that you just had bad experiences by chance while using update-manager, AFIK update-manager is more of a superset of apt-get dist-upgrade, i.e it uses dist-upgrade but has extra sanity checks
[12:09] <sethk> Xero, gentoo isn't hard, as long as you don't mind watching your machine compile for a week or two.
[12:09] <soundray> bluebanana: what's difficult (sometimes) is to find out how to do things like that.
[12:09] <Xero> Inox: /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[12:10] <Inox> thanks
[12:10] <bluebanana> soundray, yeah.
[12:10] <Cieran> jrib: I want whatever Java <insert phrase here> is necessary for Java applets to work in Firefox. Every time I open something that requires Java, I am told I need to install a Java Runtime Environment. Every method I have tried of installing anything Java has not fixed this problem.
[12:10] <Jordan_U> bluebanana, sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/whatever /mountpoint
[12:10] <bluebanana> thanks for making it easy for me.
[12:10] <bluebanana> Jordan_U, you talking to me?
[12:10] <kenjiru> my sound card stopped working and I get a "[   49.417868]  codec_ready: codec is not ready [0x300000] "
[12:10] <kenjiru> please help!
[12:10] <nortcele> i have one last question. i keep forgetting the steps. this time im going to write it down... How do i stop X Server and go back to plain terminal
[12:10] <Jordan_U> Darkkish, , sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/whatever /mountpoint
[12:11] <Darkkish> thanks
[12:11] <Jordan_U> bluebanana, No, sorry
[12:11] <Xero> nortcele, ctrl+alt+f1
[12:11] <bluebanana> soundray, it also works for a playlist, yes?
[12:11] <Adlai> I've got two jfs logical partitions on one physical partition, with gentoo on one and ubuntu on the other.  Is there an easy way to delete the gentoo partition and expand the ubuntu partition to fill the space of both?
[12:11] <Inox> xero: it says " * Forcing reload of web server (apache2)...                                    apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
[12:11] <Inox> httpd (no pid file) not running
[12:11] <Inox> apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName"
[12:11] <sethk> Cieran, have you tried running firefox as root, navagating to a site requiring java, and saying "yes" to "should I install java"?  Not the exact words, but you know what I mean.
[12:11] <jrib> Cieran: yes, there is a way to install it on 64bit but it is not straight-forward.  I will have the bot send you a link.  I still think 64bit isn't worth it though and you should just wait for the 32bit download to finish
[12:11] <Xero> login as your user, then do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[12:11] <soundray> nortcele: 'sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop' (Xero's answer is for switching)
[12:11] <jrib> sethk: he's on 64bit
[12:11] <Xero> Inox, that restarted Apache.
[12:11] <jrib> !flash64 > Cieran (read the private message from ubotu)
[12:11] <Inox> Ok, thanks
[12:11] <sethk> jrib, isn't the jre binary available for 64 bit?
[12:11] <Xero> Inox, replace 'restart' in that command with 'start' or 'stop' whenever you need them
[12:12] <jrib> sethk: not the plugin
[12:12] <jackfusion> can any one possibly help me?
[12:12] <sethk> jrib, didn't know that.
[12:12] <Inox> Ok, thanks a lot
[12:12] <soundray> jackfusion: ask a question and you'll find out for yourself
[12:12] <jrib> sethk: there's actually a bug several years old on sun's tracker, it's ridiculous
[12:12] <Xero> Also, what's your MSN so I can help you in private next time and keep from putting more crap in the channel?
[12:12] <Jordan_U> jackfusion, We won't know until you ask a question :)
[12:12] <sethk> jrib, no argument here.  :)
[12:13] <jackfusion>  Is there a way to find an instance of a key word in a list of files and directories replace it with something else?  Example find /opt/ and replace it with /media/IPOD.
[12:13] <jstarcher> Jordan_U, OHHH I just remembered, my video card has composite out, won't that work???
[12:13] <kenjiru> my sound card stopped working, please help!
[12:13] <Jordan_U> jstarcher, Not for HD resolutions
[12:13] <erUSUL> nomaS: !sound | kenjiru
[12:14] <Cieran> jrib: Do I need to install the 32-bit version of FIrefox first? I've already performed the steps listed on that site for Java, that did not work either.
[12:14] <soundray> jackfusion: sed -i s/\opt\//\/media\/ipod\//g *
[12:14] <jstarcher> Jordan_U, I read at Crutchfield "The component video connections on most HD-capable TVs can accept video signals up to 1080i, while the inputs on non-HD sets are generally limited to 480p."
[12:14] <jrib> Cieran: yes, you need to use 32bit firefox like that page says to get java working
[12:14] <Cieran> jrib: I see.
[12:14] <kenjiru> erUSUL: hm?
[12:14] <Din0x> is there a firewall in ubuntu feisty?
[12:14] <soundray> jackfusion: be careful with the wildcard file input in that examp[le
[12:14] <jrib> !firewall > Din0x (read the private message from ubotu)
[12:15] <Jordan_U> jstarcher, I've never tried it, can't hurt :)
[12:15] <bluebanana> soundray, i tried your command, but the program opens up and starts immediately
[12:15] <jstarcher> Jordan_U, hehe sounds like a good answer. I shall try now :)
[12:15] <erUSUL> !sound | kenjiru
[12:15] <ubotu> kenjiru: 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
[12:15] <ScorpKing> what program is used for suspend and hibernate on laptops? mine doesn't work.
[12:16] <jstarcher> Jordan_U, oh I wrote composite, I meant component
[12:16] <colourAgga> :*
[12:16] <soundray> bluebanana: I see -- I thought it would work with gnome-open, but it doesn't. Use a command line mp3 player like mpg321
[12:16] <Jordan_U> ScorpKing, There are multiple options, try uswusp if the default doesn't work
[12:16] <Cieran> jrib: One more question: In some of the steps it has 'usr'. Do I actually put 'usr' or my username there?
[12:16] <ScorpKing> Jordan_U: thanks
[12:16] <bluebanana> soundray, i tried totem, and totem works/plays the music, but it does so now, and not later
[12:16] <jrib> Cieran: usr is a directory so it should stay as "usr"
[12:16] <Cieran> jrib: I see. Thank you.
[12:16] <metrix> Who would I need to talk to about an issue with Gutsy and an external USB device?
[12:16] <bluebanana> can mplayer handle playlist files (.pls)?
[12:17] <jrib> bluebanana: try 'mplayer -playlist foo.pls'
[12:17] <kenjiru> erUSUL: you don't understand, the sound just stopped working
[12:17] <bluebanana> how can i get mplayer to repeat the playing of the playlist forever
[12:17] <Jordan_U> ScorpKing, "sudo apt-get install uswsusp" then "sudo s2ram / s2disk / s2both" to use it
[12:17] <jrib> metrix: if it's a bug, you should file it at bugs.ubuntu.com.  If it's a support question, you should ask in #ubuntu+1
[12:17] <soundray> bluebanana: mplayer -loop
[12:18] <Jordan_U> ScorpKing, You can also make Gnome use it by default but make sure it works first
[12:18] <jrib> bluebanana: mplayer -loop 0
[12:18] <jackfusion> soundray: I get this error sed: -e expression #1, char 8: unknown option to 's'
[12:18] <ScorpKing> Jordan_U: :) running it now. what is the default program, just for info? i'm using kde.
[12:18] <erUSUL> kenjiru: something has to have happened... things odes not "just stop working"
[12:19] <MaximLevitsky> Is that possible to open a terminal in a folder using Nautilus ?
[12:19] <Eviltronic> I'm on Feisty and i have little problems with refresh rate. On higher resolutions my refresh rate is only 60 but on lower like 1024x768 its up to 85. My monitor supports refresh rate up to 120 hz. How can i change refresh rate for higher resolutions. Like 100 hz?
[12:19] <soundray> jackfusion: try sed -i 's/\opt\//\/media\/ipod\//g' * (single quotes around the expression)
[12:19] <bluebanana> how come mplayer is playing an FLV file like a chipmunk? (totem plays it correctly)
[12:19] <Flannel> MaximLevitsky: You should install the nautilus-open-terminal package, then you'll have an entry in your right click menu
[12:19] <mweichert> hey! I just setup a small network of computer using ubuntu. I can ping by hostname, but not fqdn - any ideas?
[12:20] <allorder> Ive just downloaded scourge-0.18.x86.package how to install it ?
[12:20] <jrib> jackfusion, soundray: you know sed can use other characters to delimit, like s#foo#bar# ?  (helps keep my sanity)
[12:21] <jackfusion> soundray: would I put ipod in capitals just like it in the media folder?
[12:21] <soundray> mweichert: if you give it a fqdn, it'll look it up via DNS, so if it doesn't work, there's either no entry or you don't have DNS.
[12:21] <soundray> jrib: cool!
[12:21] <fujin_> mweichert: are you serving the fqdn locally (with BIND, or dnsmasq?)
[12:21] <sistom> I installed scream html editor and now whenever I click a link in like a mirc client it opens it instead of firefox. How do I change the default program for html files?
[12:21] <fujin_> I'd suggest dnsmasq if you want something lightweight
[12:21] <soundray> jackfusion: yes, /media/IPOD and /media/ipod are different, if that's what you're asking.
[12:21] <mweichert> fujin_ BIND
[12:21] <bluebanana> soundray,  mplayer foo.mp3 | at 15:22 makes the music start now. and not later. are you sure you have the right command/syntax?
[12:22] <jackfusion> thank you
[12:22] <fujin_> mweichert: does host blah ip_of_server work?
[12:22] <bluebanana> does anybody know how to get a command in terminal to start at AB:CD PM?
[12:22] <m1r> how long does it take to create *.iso from 700mb file ?
[12:23] <mweichert> fujin_ yes. My dns server is called 'dns'. I can execute this: 'ping dns' but I cannot do 'ping dns.mydomain.local'
[12:23] <tarelerulz> Have any of you installed Linux onto a router ? The reason I ask is the firmware is like 2002 and it don't have both tcp and  udp  in the port forwarding tab
[12:23] <jrib> bluebanana: at your_time_here       then type in your command and hit ctrl-d
[12:23] <allorder> Ive just downloaded scourge-0.18.x86.package how to install it ?
[12:23] <Cieran> jrib: I installed the 32 Bit Emulation Libraries, downloaded the installation gzip, but when I put in 'tar -zxf firefox-2.0.0.7.tar.gz' I got this message: "tar: firefox-2.0.0.7.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
[12:23] <Cieran> tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
[12:23] <Cieran> tar: Child returned status 2
[12:23] <Cieran> tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[12:23] <fujin_> ls -la
[12:24] <bluebanana> jrib, i see. so something like at 15:30 mplayer music.mp3
[12:24] <soundray> bluebanana: the syntax is right, but it works with some programs, but not others.
[12:24] <jrib> Cieran: please use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org for your error messages
[12:24] <bluebanana> correct?
[12:24] <jrib> bluebanana: you are pressing enter after the time
[12:24] <bluebanana> soundray, the syntax you gave me is the reverse of what jrib gives me
[12:24] <ScorpKing> tarelerulz: there is openwrt and dd-wrt and others for routers.
[12:24] <jrib> bluebanana: soundray's would work too if you echo the command probably
[12:25] <jrib> Cieran: it means you are in the wrong directory
[12:25] <Cieran> jrib: ?
[12:25] <jackfusion> soundray: I now get the same error different charater now "sed: -e expression #1, char 27: unknown option to 's'"
[12:25] <jackfusion> soundray: I get the same error but with char 27  now
[12:25] <bluebanana> jrib, tab-completion doesn't work when i'm in the "at>" prompt.
[12:25] <Flannel> allorder: Ubuntu doesn't use autopackage packages, it uses deb files.  You should find a version of scourge that is a deb (a cursory google search says getdeb has them)
[12:25] <soundray> bluebanana: I've just tested jrib's and mine -- with mplayer jrib's is best.
[12:25] <jrib> bluebanana: correct
[12:25] <TUXedomember> hey if u do ctrl alt f1 how do u get back to the gui?
[12:25] <bluebanana> soundray, how do i do your syntax?
[12:25] <sethk> bluebanana, no need to stuggle.  "man command" will show you information about the command.  "command --help" will show you more brief information.  Both include the syntax of the command.
[12:26] <soundray> bluebanana: with a different player program. Try mpg321
[12:26] <tarelerulz> ScorpKing, I don't know what all that is could you break it down for me ?
[12:26] <m1r> tuxedomember ; c
[12:26] <m1r> tuxedomember ; ctrl + alt + f7
[12:26] <soundray> jackfusion: can you repeat, what are you trying to replace in which files?
[12:26] <jrib> Cieran: you need to 'cd' to the directory where you downloaded the firefox.tar.gz
[12:26] <jrib> !cli > Cieran (read the private message from ubotu)
[12:26] <Marshal1> I'm able to login to gnome, but I'm unable to unlock the desktop from screensaver or screen locking.  I have posted a bit of log file and some descriptions of things I have checked at http://pastebin.com/m24cb6805
[12:26] <bluebanana> jrib, how do i cancel an "at" job?
[12:27] <\dev\hda1> Look at me! I'm an IDE hard disk! (sorry. I'm bored)
[12:27] <Cieran> jrib: Ah. Oh yes I see.

[12:27] <imachine> Hi, I have kubuntu, want to have ubuntu. How ?
[12:27] <ScorpKing> tarelerulz: i prefer dd-wrt - www.dd-wrt.com . it's linux on a router. all the info is on the website.
[12:27] <sobersabre> hi, guys. I have a wierd statistical question.
[12:28] <paulcooperorama> how do I join a windows network family
[12:28] <colourAgga> imachine: get ubuntu disc and install?
[12:28] <\dev\hda1> imachine, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[12:28] <imachine> \dev\hda1, done that. how do I remove kubuntu now ?
[12:28] <soundray> jackfusion: cd /path/to/lampp ; sed -i 's#/opt/#/media/IPOD#g' *
[12:28] <sobersabre> how many MB/GB of data had a user of, say ubuntu Feisty Fawn since its release, to update the software ?
[12:28] <bluebanana> i think there should be tab-completion in "at" command.
[12:28] <imachine> apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop only removes the meta.
[12:28] <paulcooperorama> how do I join a windows network family
[12:28] <sobersabre> given the user installed EVERYTHING.
[12:28] <\dev\hda1> imachine, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-usplash (i think) to get the splash screen
[12:28] <bascule> sobersabre: about 300
[12:28] <\dev\hda1> and sudo apt-get install gdm
[12:29] <\dev\hda1> then you'll have a choice between GNOME and KDE
[12:29] <bascule> sobersabre: MB
[12:29] <sobersabre> bascule: how can I determine this too ?
[12:29] <\dev\hda1> !info ubuntu-usplash
[12:29] <ubotu> Package ubuntu-usplash does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[12:29] <\dev\hda1> Crap
[12:29] <imachine> \dev\hda1, done that too. also I chose to run gdm with dpkg.
[12:29] <imachine> it's all good. I just want to remove all that's left from kubuntu.
[12:29] <sobersabre> bascule: another Q: I am not talkin about one-time upgrade after vanilla CD install.
[12:29] <imachine> so I have a clean ubuntu install.
[12:29] <bascule> sobersabre: do a frsh install 2 weeks ago and run apt-get update apt-get upgrade ;)
[12:29] <\dev\hda1> sudo apt-get install usplash-theme-ubuntu gets you the usplash, I have no idea how to remove ALL of Kubuntu
[12:29] <sobersabre> I am talking about a user that downloaded the distro on the release day, and updated the system all the time.
[12:30] <bascule> sobersabre: well how many packages did they have?
[12:30] <imachine> \dev\hda1, no such option to apt-get as to remove all packages dependant on a package?
[12:30] <paulcooperorama> how do I join a windows network family
[12:30] <colourAgga> how do i make x-chat connect to multiple servers
[12:30] <bluebanana> how can i get mplayer to play foo.mp3  5 times?
[12:30] <Jordan_U> paulcooperorama, Places -> Network ?
[12:30] <sobersabre> bascule: my question is much more difficult than you thought at the start.
[12:30] <imachine> \dev\hda1, such as, apt-get remove -f kubuntu-desktop perhaphs ?
[12:30] <imachine> \dev\hda1, you know what I mean ?
[12:30] <\dev\hda1> imachine, I know what you mean, but I have no idea how to do it.

[12:30] <imachine> \dev\hda1, okay no bother.
[12:31] <soundray> bluebanana: it's probably time to read some mplayer documentation. Check out 'man mplayer' and the stuff in /usr/share/doc/mplayer/

[12:31] <imachine> \dev\hda1, I'll search apt-get man pages.
[12:31] <Curs0r__> anyone kow of a decent ubuntu iscsi guide?
[12:31] <Cieran> jrib: Would you mind sending me the link one more time for the website containing the instructions? I er...accidentally closed my browser
[12:31] <Jordan_U> paulcooperorama, Is it listed under windows networks?
[12:31] <\dev\hda1> That helps you set up a share, paulcooperorama, if that's what you meant.
[12:31] <bascule> sobersabre: I will see if there are logs for apt-get, but even then was a package installed after upgrades appeared or not, it has to man variables to be definitive
[12:31] <jrib> !flash64 > Cieran (read the private message from ubotu)
[12:31] <paulcooperorama> jordan I installed samba
[12:31] <sobersabre> bascule: I am asking this: how many MB had a user of ubuntu FF, 7.04 to download if he/she installed it on the release date, and updated all the updates.....
[12:31] <bascule> too many*
[12:31] <paulcooperorama> jordan --- yes
[12:31] <Cieran> jrib: Thank you
[12:31] <bascule> sobersabre: again, depends what packages were there
[12:31] <sobersabre> bascule: I think, estimate it about 2-3 times the CD, at least.
[12:31] <bascule> no way
[12:31] <soundray> sobersabre: is a very rough estimate good enough?
[12:31] <Jordan_U> paulcooperorama, And what happens when you try to connect to it from there?
[12:32] <sobersabre> I am talking extreme EVERYTHING INSTALLED.
[12:32] <sobersabre> I don't know.
[12:32] <ScorpKing> tarelerulz: support for linux on routers can be found on irc.jawug.za.net port 6667 channel wnet.
[12:32] <paulcooperorama> I am not able to see the "family" network
[12:32] <bascule> sobersabre: personal experience from 14 days ago, 300MB
[12:32] <sobersabre> bascule: thanks.
[12:32] <squarebottle> Can anybody recommend a few alternatives to the default Applications Menu on the GNOME panel?
[12:32] <sobersabre> this doesn't answer my question.
[12:32] <sobersabre> :)
[12:32] <metrix> If there is a bug filed for a package "say module-init-utils", there is a bug filed at bugs.ubuntu.com and I would like to try my hand at fixing it, how would I go about fixing it?
[12:32] <bascule> sobersabre: but that was not 'everything installed'
[12:32] <Jordan_U> sobersabre, You cannot install every application in the repositories if that is what you are trying to do
[12:32] <sobersabre> squarebottle: what do you mean.
[12:32] <\dev\hda1> squarebottle, the desktop, Awn, Kiba-Dock
[12:33] <squarebottle> No, not an alternative for the panel itself.
[12:33] <squarebottle> Just the menu.
[12:33] <paulcooperorama> jordan -- doesnt that have to installed someplace
[12:33] <soundray> squarebottle: I like to start almost everything via Alt-F2
[12:33] <sobersabre> bascule: assuming ALL possible updates released from main, contrib, multiverse, universe HAD to be downloaded.
[12:33] <sobersabre> Jordan_U: I know.
[12:33] <squarebottle> soundray: This isn't for me. I start most things via alt-f2 as well.
[12:33] <sobersabre> I am talking about estimation.
[12:33] <sobersabre> I hope I am clear... now.
[12:33] <sobersabre> :)
[12:34] <Jordan_U> paulcooperorama, So it is *not* listed under Places -> Network -> Windows Network ?
[12:34] <bascule> sobersabre: in *all* avialable (16000) packages?
[12:34] <paulcooperorama> jordan -- that is correct
[12:34] <osito> is there a networking channel?
[12:35] <squarebottle> For example, KBFX is an applet for the KDE panel that can replace the regular KDE start button. I'm looking to replace the regular GNOME start button with something. Can anybody help me out?
[12:35] <sobersabre> OK. I have an argument with a person, who considers a distro including MORE packages on the CD to be more superior, from downloaded data perspective, given download is for paid traffic ( in MB/$ ).
[12:35] <bascule> sobersabre: you would need to ask a mirror admin with good logs for an accurate answer
[12:35] <sobersabre> bascule: is there any default stats of a debian mirror up and running ?
[12:35] <sobersabre> I think debian is quite in sync with ubuntu.
[12:36] <bascule> sobersabre: but it all depends on what you install
[12:36] <sobersabre> from the updates perspective.
[12:36] <sobersabre> of course.
[12:36] <kelvin> #ubuntu-es
[12:36] <bascule> sobersabre: published stats, I really dunno
[12:36] <soundray> sobersabre: this is not a well-formed question. Too many variables.
[12:37] <jackfusion> soundray: I think I am getting some where now I get the message sed: no input files
[12:37] <paulcooperorama> jordan -- that is correct
[12:37] <soundray> jackfusion: you must have forgotten the *
[12:37] <sobersabre> soundray: I know.
[12:37] <sobersabre> I am forming it ... right now.
[12:37] <jackfusion> oh ok
[12:37] <noodlehead> I'm able to login to gnome with no problems.  If I lock my desktop or the screensaver comes on, I'm unable to unlock it.  For details, http://pastebin.com/m35f820e4
[12:37] <eTranquility> Can someone help me with using sudo? Everytime I'm prompted for the password it doesn't seem to respond to any keyboard commands, seems like my keyboard is disabled.
[12:38] <sobersabre> does anybody understand what I am asking ?
[12:38] <jackfusion> I get the same error except char 23 now
[12:38] <sobersabre> I mean, if there was update of ooo say 2 weeks ago, 4 weeks ago, I want to count all of these megabytes in the count.
[12:38] <bascule> sobersabre: it is all ging to depend on what the individual has on there machine at any time, this is linux and Free software, *so* many possibilities
[12:39] <jackfusion> is xara 3d better the gimp?
[12:39] <tarelerulz> ScorpKing, is it the router Linux you use easy to install
[12:39] <erUSUL> eTranquility: judt type the password and hit enter echo is disabled so you won't see anything (not even ****)
[12:39] <bascule> sobersabre: say I do ubuntu-server and run ssh and nothing else?
[12:40] <sasa> hello all. I am trying to upgrade my system from edgy to the latest using the update manager. Once I click on "update", it starts downloading the upgrade utility, then I get the following message: " Authenticating the upgrade failed. There may be a problem with the network or with the server." Any thoughts anyone???
[12:40] <ScorpKing> tarelerulz: yes but do some reading first and make sure your router's model is supported.
[12:40] <erUSUL> jackfusion: different xara i more like inkscape (vectorial drawing) gim is bitmap
[12:40] <soundray> sobersabre: for the five months of feisty history, I agree with bascule's estimate of 300MB, possibly a bit more, as some packages have been updated more than once. Problem is, there's no way to extrapolate that into a prediction for the future.
[12:40] <eTranquility> erUSUL, thanks, it works.
[12:40] <mkamal30> hi
[12:41] <jackfusion> oh ok
[12:41] <ScorpKing> tarelerulz: i have to go now. all the info you need is on that link i gave you. good luck.

[12:52] <ubotu> TUXedomember: 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)
[12:52] <soundray> jackfusion: can you type the command you're using in here, please
[12:52] <fujin_> no, this is the support channel
[12:52] <fujin_> there is an official chat channel
[12:52] <Flannel> usacomputertec: #ubuntu-offtopic is for general chatter
[12:53] <rsk> usacomputertec: there is something like #ubuntu-chat afaik. and this is the supportchannel
[12:53] <rsk> ah -offtopic then.
[12:53] <usacomputertec> ok
[12:53] <noodlehead> soundray, I'll try it.  I only have 2 real users on this machine.  If I suddenly d/c that means I had to kill gdm
[12:53] <jackfusion> sed -i 's#/opt/#/media/IPOD#g'* in the lampp directory
[12:53] <soundray> noodlehead: you could create a new one for testing
[12:53] <dv310p3r> how do i access device manager? i don't see it in my System > Administration?
[12:54] <noodlehead> soundray, good thinking.... working on it

[12:54] <sasa> hey all....I thing I'm in deep crap...I tried to update to the latest version using update manager. I was having trouble so I ran gpg in the terminal, aborted it, then ran the update manager again. Now it says "Upgrading Ubuntu to version 6.10". I thought the version was 7.x!! I would hate to have my computer run for an hour and not accomplish anything. Please help!!!
[12:54] <usacomputertec> OH NO the people in Ubuntu-offtopic are all dead! They don't talk
[12:55] <usacomputertec> Or maybe Microsoft put those new Trusted Computing chips in their brains!
[12:55] <sasa> I forgot to mention that there is no button to stop the install
[12:55] <usacomputertec> The ones that only let them think Microsoft thoughts and can't process anything else
[12:55] <soundray> usacomputertec: have some patience
[12:55] <dv310p3r> how do i access device manager? i don't see it in my System > Administration?
[12:55] <jackfusion> soundray: now I think it is working
[12:55] <mboldisc> Has anyone gotten vsftpd running on Ubuntu with a restricted set of users?
[12:56] <sasa> how can I check what my current installed version of ubuntu is??

[12:56] <erUSUL> sasa: lsb_release -a
[12:56] <Nalleman> hi all. Im trying to play some midi files but I get no sound. Someone here know what might be wrong?

[12:57] <Nalleman> hehe, thancks erUSUL
[12:57] <sasa> soundray: that sounds like a perfect explanation. Could you please let me know how can I check my current installed version (sorry, I'm a n00b)
[12:57] <Nalleman> thanks evenm

[12:57] <nahka> how can I enable the login as root ?

[12:57] <soundray> !sudo | nahka
[12:57] <ubotu> nahka: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:58] <dv310p3r> I have googled all over the place and I cannot find anywhere how to access the Device Manager, everything says go to System > Administration and should be there, but it's not. Please help?
[12:58] <zero> oa
[12:58] <soundray> dv310p3r: don't expect things to be like Windows
[12:58] <soundray> dv310p3r: what are you trying to do?
[12:58] <mboldisc> hehe
[12:58] <Numbeast> dv310p3r: go to system->main menu and see if it's disabled
[12:59] <jshriver> What is the "Networking Applet"?
[12:59] <sasa> soundsray: hmmm, my current version is "Ubuntu 6.10"
[12:59] <dv310p3r> Soundray: I need to access device manager so that i can see if my SD card reader shows up there. I have been trying to get it working for days now.
[01:00] <soundray> sasa: but then you've already partially upgraded. Your /etc/lsb-release may have been replaced.
[01:00] <osito> jshriver, it's what I want to re-enable on my laptop
[01:00] <soundray> dv310p3r: is it a built-in laptop card reader?
[01:00] <jshriver> the wifidocs says to use Network applet to configure the wireless card.
[01:00] <dv310p3r> yes
[01:00] <dv310p3r> soundray: sorry, yes.
[01:00] <sethk> dv310p3r, lspci will tell you whether the reader (as opposed to the card itself) is detected
[01:01] <sasa> son of a....when I click on the upgrade button after I run the update manager (so I can upgrade to 7.04) I get an error message "authenticating the upgrade failed. There may be a problem with the network or with the server"
[01:01] <soundray> dv310p3r: these are difficult beasts to support. The SD consortium is very secretive and anti-free-software.
[01:01] <dv310p3r> soudnray: i know, I have run it and I am creating a text doc with all the info on my system, and I need to see if it is in device manager
[01:01] <codgod04> anyone have problems with the new ATI drivers on 7.04? the ati control centre seems to be refusing to detect and use my secondary monitor.
[01:01] <osito> jshriver, try to sudo aptitude install network-manager
[01:01] <jshriver> hrm thanks
[01:01] <sasa> do you recommend running all the updates for my existing version before I attempt upgrading to 7.04??
[01:01] <jshriver> is network-manager the same thing as System->Admin->Networking?
[01:02] <jackfusion> /exit
[01:02] <soundray> dv310p3r: I wouldn't spend too much time on it. Use a USB card reader, and see if the live CD of gutsy (currently alpha) works out of the box with your internal reader.
[01:02] <usacomputertec> no exit
[01:02] <dv310p3r> soundray: when i access the SYSTEM > MAIN MENU option, device manager isn't even in there.
[01:02] <usacomputertec> you can't exit jackfusion
[01:02] <usacomputertec> no
[01:02] <osito> jshriver, not it's not, it's ana applet you'll see next to the clock once installed
[01:03] <dv310p3r> soundray: is there a way to run device manager from the terminal?
[01:03] <Numbeast> dv310p3r: that's because I was being stupid, there's no such thing as the device manager in ubuntu
[01:03] <dv310p3r> that's not the case, I have seen it in a ubuntu manual
[01:03] <Numbeast> dv310p3r: goto system->prefs->hardware info
[01:03] <jshriver> hrm ok see it now
[01:03] <dv310p3r> http://people.ubuntulinux.org/~mako/docteam/quickguide/ch05.html#qg-device-manager
[01:04] <soundray> dv310p3r: System-Preferences-Hardware Information is the closest thing
[01:04] <jshriver> but shows nothing for wireless just my wired connection
[01:04] <jshriver> no configure or anything
[01:04] <Kanuha> help, I insert a USB drive and it comes up read only with unknown owner. need to change to be able to write files to it
[01:04] <dstadulis> Hi I have a urgent question, I suspect one of my HDD is going to fail soon, I can hear clicking, but I cannot get my seagate external hard drive ( st3400601cb rk ) to mount.  Can anyone please help me?
[01:04] <fujin_> so remount it rw?
[01:04] <sasa> soundray: when I run update manager, I get the message "Not all updates can be installed: run a distributing upgrade, to install as many updates as possible". Do I have to be completely up-to-date on my edgy version before I'm allowed to upgrade to 7.04??
[01:04] <jshriver> and when I go to Network Settings, it doesnt ask for encryption type or anything... nor let me look for AP's.
[01:05] <jshriver> know my SSID and pass, but doesnt let me select WPA etc
[01:05] <dv310p3r> Numbeast: Soundray: Bam, now we're talking, note that the title of that window is: Device Manager. Thanks guys,
[01:05] <Kanuha> fujin_, how can I do that?
[01:05] <codgod04> anyone know how I might be able to force the new ati drivers to detect and use my secondary dvi on my video card? (radeon x1950 pro)
[01:06] <soundray> sasa: yes and no... you can probably force a direct upgrade, but it's probably not going to work and leave your machine in an unfixable state.
[01:06] <fujin_> !fat32

[01:06] <fujin_> Kanuha^^
[01:06] <codgod04> it stopped working when I was messing with the control centre.
[01:06] <kersinc> #panas
[01:06] <sasa> soundray: so I'm better off completely updating my current version, then upgrading to 7.04?
[01:07] <soundray> sasa: it's either that, or a fresh install (which I personally prefer)
[01:07] <Eviltronic> I'm on Feisty and i have little problems with refresh rate. On higher resolutions my refresh rate is only 60 but on lower like 1024x768 its up to 85. My monitor supports refresh rate up to 120 hz. How can i change refresh rate for higher resolutions. Like 100 hz?
[01:07] <soundray> !fixres > Eviltronic (please read the private message from ubotu)
[01:07] <sethk> sasa, I agree with soundray.  Trying to upgrade and skip a release is the riskiest option
[01:07] <codgod04> !ati
[01:07] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:08] <Eviltronic> soundray: Sure. Thnx.
[01:08] <codgod04> !ati remove
[01:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ati remove - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:08] <osmosis> not sure what this question mark is for.   http://dpaste.com/20477/
[01:09] <soundray> codgod04: if you want to go back to the xorg ati driver, run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and select ati instead of fglrx as the video driver.
[01:09] <sasa> soundray and sethk: thank you, I will run the distribution upgrade for my current version, then try 7.04 upgrade...wish me luck.
[01:09] <soundray> sasa: fingers crossed.
[01:09] <sasa> thanks all:)
[01:09] <SuperLag> vim /etc/apt/sources.list ; %s/dapper/feisty/g ; apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade <-- I did that... and now a lot of stuff is broken. I thought it'd work. Is there a way to fix this box without requiring a complete reinstall?
[01:10] <jackfusion> hi all I am back
[01:10] <soundray> SuperLag: try 'sudo apt-get -f install', possibly several times.
[01:10] <jmsmistral^> hello
[01:11] <jshriver> hrm still not getting wireless working grr
[01:11] <jshriver> what a PITA lol
[01:11] <soundray> jshriver: have you looked at the guide? ::
[01:11] <jshriver> Is there a good GUI for setting up a wireless card?
[01:11] <jshriver> yeah
[01:12] <soundray> !wireless | jshriver
[01:12] <ubotu> jshriver: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:12] <jshriver> that's how I downloaded the driver compiled it, everything
[01:12] <codgod04> @soundray i've run it, and it works when I install the restricted driver manager and configure my xorg.conf manually... it's just with the newer drivers installed with envy that i'm having this problem... and the drivers anticipated with envy help me with video lag issues.
[01:12] <Ltar> ls command to list all hard drives? I swear im going to write it down this time
[01:12] <jshriver> now I'm at the point where I change /etc/network/interfaces.. problem being I dont want it to auto connect to a specific AP.  but I can't get the ifup rausb0 working without having it setup for a specific AP it seems
[01:12] <codgod04> @soundray, also, when I uninstall using envy, it isn't getting rid of everthing... whatever i did that broke the secondary monitors comes back when I use it.
[01:13] <codgod04> @soundray every time I reinstall, that is.
[01:13] <soundray> !envy | codgod04
[01:13] <ubotu> codgod04: 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!
[01:13] <jshriver> Is there a way of saying "load up wireless link without connecting to a specific AP?" so I can run rutilit and manually select APs?
[01:13] <TUXedomember> ok people i need your help again this time with kompozer
[01:14] <Numbeast> !envy | NumBeast
[01:14] <codgod04> @soundray lol... thanks for the info NOW :(
[01:14] <jshriver> or where in the settings/conf can I tell it I have a AP with a PSK, etc?
[01:14] <jshriver> and type of encryption to use?
[01:15] <soundray> codgod04: well, you've got a backup, haven't you?
[01:15] <TUXedomember> i need help!!!
[01:15] <Numbeast> soundray: you make it sound as if everyone had as much time as a professional
[01:16] <Ltar> I have a primary SATA drive and a failing 80GB EIDE drive, which is also bootable. Having both plugged in at startup = disk boot failure, even if I select to boot from the SATA. I want to mount the EIDE drive before it craps out the rest of the way, in order to recover some data from it.
[01:16] <soundray> Numbeast: any sound you hear on IRC is not something I generate ;)
[01:17] <Numbeast> lol
[01:17] <codgod04> @soundray of the xorg.confs, several. whatever this is though that's being stubborn, it's only happening to me with the new drivers. the ones downloaded from the ubuntu repo work just fine... they are just a pain to configure properly. but what's doing this is completely seperate from the xorg file, as i've tried two of my backups and have the same results.
[01:17] <sethk> Ltar, ok, so what's your specific question.
[01:17] <Ltar> sethk: how can I mount the drive, if the computer won't boot with it plugged in at startup?
[01:17] <erUSUL> Ltar: ls command to list all hard drives? <<<>>> ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/
[01:17] <MaximLevitsky> Is that possible to launch a terminal from a nautilus?
[01:17] <codgod04> i just figured there was somethin I was overlooking.
[01:18] <MaximLevitsky> in specific folder?
[01:18] <erUSUL> Ltar: use a livecd ubuntu's or any other (knoppix e.g)
[01:18] <soundray> codgod04: that may well be true. Please ask the channel again, there's always a chance that someone else may have a better answer for you.
[01:18] <ki4cgp> soundray, OK.  This is noodlehead. it also affects other users with not being able to access from screensaver.  admin access works as it should.  odd.
[01:18] <sethk> Ltar, boot a cd is my first suggestion.
[01:18] <TUXedomember> yo people help i need help!!!!!!!
[01:19] <CoasterMaster> !iso
[01:19] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[01:19] <josh_> with what?
[01:19] <furenku> How can I change who the owner of a folder is? (its now root, i want a user to be the owner)
[01:19] <CoasterMaster> furenku, chown
[01:19] <codgod04> TUXedomember: please let us know WHAT the problem is, rather than the fact you have one :D
[01:19] <mssever> !ask
[01:19] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:19] <furenku> codgod04, chmod and what parameters?
[01:20] <macd> furenku, 'chown -R user:group folder/'
[01:20] <TUXedomember> i told u people what the problem is before i need help with kompozer it wont publish
[01:20] <soundray> ki4cgp: weird. I suggest you boot in recovery mode (grub boot option) and do a 'rm -rf /tmp/*'
[01:20] <harris2004> hello
[01:20] <macd> TUXedomember, wont publish is pretty broad, how about the error it gives you
[01:21] <harris2004> i gota a problem...my ubuntu doesnt load anymore..it loads by 4 bars and nothing else
[01:21] <ki4cgp> soundray, kk.  I'll try that
[01:21] <soundray> furenku: on a root folder, you will have to use sudo with chown
[01:21] <CoasterMaster> harris2004, did you do anything weird to your computer that might have caused this?
[01:21] <TUXedomember> when i hit publish and enter my info it tells me that it had a problem publishing and didn't publish. all the info it need's is correct
[01:22] <mjancaitis> Hey everybody!
[01:22] <CoasterMaster> !hi | mjancaitis
[01:22] <ubotu> mjancaitis: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:22] <harris2004> yeah, i changed the case...however windows was not affected

[01:23] <jackfusion> I am trying to run xampp from my ipod I have managed to get xampp up to getting this error XAMPP: - Fatal: unable to read configureation file '/opt/lampp/etc/proftpd.cof' : No such file or directory XAMPP: Error 1! couln't start ProFTPD! how do I find '/opt/lampp/etc/proftpd.cof' and change it to '/media/IPOD/lampp/etc/proftpd.cof'
[01:23] <soundray> !hi | salvator2
[01:23] <ubotu> salvator2: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:23] <nilihanth> hello, I'm having trouble seeing my network via wireless...anyone help?
[01:23] <salvator2> Yay! I've been trying so hard to get ubuntu and it finally works!
[01:23] <salvator2> This is so cool
[01:23] <mjancaitis> I'm pretty damn sure I've installed the 64-bit 7.04 on my laptop, but A) I'm not sure how to check it (uname -a tells me x86-64) and B) it's not recognizing both cores of my dual-core processor, which I need to fix
[01:23] <Rotanimod> welcome to Ubuntu!
[01:23] <mjancaitis> Who's got some badass ideas for me?
[01:23] <robink> This is an odd request, but how do you bootstrap Ubuntu from a Gentoo LiveCD?
[01:23] <harris2004> coastmaster, you have anu sggestions?
[01:24] <robink> The Ubuntu LiveCD pops the display into a mode that the monitor can't handle.
[01:24] <soundray> mjancaitis: how do you know it's not recognizing your two cores?
[01:24] <robink> (Installing Ubuntu 6.06)
[01:24] <kitche> mjancaitis, are you sure it's not what does cat /proc/cpuinfo tell you
[01:24] <robink> Yes, I know it's old, but it's what I was told to install.
[01:24] <Jordan_U> robink, Did you try safe graphics mode?
[01:24] <mjancaitis> cat /proc/cpuinfo tells me 1 core
[01:24] <robink> Jordan_U: Yup
[01:24] <mjancaitis> I promise :D
[01:24] <CoasterMaster> harris2004, hmmm, i'm not sure
[01:24] <jackfusion> I tried finding every instance /opt/ and change it to media/IPOD/ with no luck
[01:24] <codgod04> !crap
[01:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about crap - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:24] <kai> anyone using a hp dv2120us or dv2000 series here? need to ask a few questions about the graphics/network card
[01:24] <harris2004> ok
[01:24] <kitche> mjancaitis, if it says 1 then it's two
[01:24] <Jordan_U> robink, Told to install by whom and what for?
[01:24] <codgod04> LOL
[01:24] <kitche> mjancaitis, since it would say 0
[01:24] <codgod04> !crap
[01:24] <Badpenguin86> What is the command for the gnome network proxy?
[01:24] <Red-Sox> HOw do I make banshee my default audio player?
[01:24] <nilihanth> I'm connected to the internet via wireless, but I cannot see my network folders.  Can anyone help?
[01:24] <robink> Jordan_U: By my Godfather for a Spanish-language thin client.
[01:25] <codgod04> !nothing
[01:25] <ubotu> Saying "It says nothing", "It does nothing" is generally not very useful for troubleshooting. Please be as specific as possible: if you see a black screen, say so, if you see a shell prompt, say so, if you see an !error message, say so - Also, most !CLI commands don't print anything when they succeed, but only when they fail.
[01:25] <Jordan_U> robink, Did you try switching to tty 1 ?
[01:25] <codgod04> !crap
[01:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about crap - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:25] <robink> Jordan_U: No, I'll try that.
[01:25] <soundray> codgod04: don't do this please
[01:25] <codgod04> ok lol
[01:25] <soundray> !language | codgod04
[01:25] <ubotu> codgod04: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:25] <codgod04> sorry.
[01:25] <Curs0r> does the gpxe source come with ubuntu?
[01:25] <Red-Sox> codgod04: You can message the bot though :P
[01:25] <codgod04> just messing with the bot.
[01:25] <Jordan_U> robink, There is also a text based install CD
[01:25] <Jordan_U> !alternate | robink
[01:25] <ubotu> robink: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[01:25] <nilihanth> is there a channel to go for help with ubuntu?
[01:25] <mjancaitis> kitche: I disagree, mainly because I'm trying to install a dual-core program (F@H SMP) and it tells me I only have one core (and the actual text says core id         : 0
[01:25] <mjancaitis> cpu cores       : 1)
[01:25] <soundray> !msgthebot | codgod04
[01:25] <ubotu> codgod04: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[01:26] <mjancaitis> Whoops, crazy enters
[01:26] <Jordan_U> nilihanth, Here :)

Can any one help me ple
[01:26] <soundray> IrishDave: it's probably a BIOS restriction. Open the BIOS setup and look for something like MBR virus protection.
[01:27] <sobersabre> there's some diff support for upgrades.
[01:27] <mjancaitis> No idea :(
[01:27] <salvator2> Anybody know if there is a chat channel for beginners?
[01:27] <IrishDave> thanks soundray
[01:27] <Inox> #newbies
[01:27] <salvator2> thank you
[01:27] <sobersabre> salvator2: what is your question, actually ?
[01:27] <kitche> mjancaitis, ok if you say so but if you have a 0 and a 1 then you have two cores
[01:27] <Jordan_U> jackfusion, As in ipodlinux ?
[01:27] <sobersabre> maybe you should not waste your time... and ask it....
[01:27] <salvator2> Well, just wanted to know some of the features ubuntu offers
[01:27] <salvator2> my first time on any linux distro
[01:27] <robink> Jordan_U: Exactly what I needed.  Thank you.
[01:27] <slash> rerver wroclaw.ircx.net.pl
[01:27] <Jordan_U> robink, np
[01:28] <sobersabre> salvator2: #newbies has nothing to do with ubuntu ( unless accidentally there's someone who knows.
[01:28] <Inox> salvator2 I recommend ubuntuforums.com
[01:28] <mjancaitis> kitche: I only have one core id, I should have two core ids, should be able to see two core loads and stuff in the system monitor, etc
[01:28] <Inox> read some, then chat
[01:28] <Badpenguin86> What is the command for the gnome network proxy?
[01:28] <salvator2> ok, thank you, i'll check it out
[01:28] <mjancaitis> badpenguin86: gnome-network-manager
[01:28] <sobersabre> salvator2: use Inox suggestion, simply read in your tempo the forums, usually FAQ answer most questions.
[01:28] <mjancaitis> I think
[01:28] <Red-Sox> Does anyone know how to configure the buttons of a Microsoft 6000 v2.0 keyboard?  I know how to configure keyboard shortcuts but most of them don't work.
[01:28] <Curs0r> anyone? ubuntu over iscsi?
[01:29] <kitche> mjancaitis, do you have a smp kernel installed if not install one the default kernel should be smp
[01:29] <sobersabre> Curs0r: do you have a supported iscsi controller ?
[01:29] <TUXedomember> what's a different program for editing and making web site's?
[01:29] <salvator2> Does my name same salvator2 or cooper?
[01:29] <Curs0r> sobersabre the entire point of gpxe is that hba is not required
[01:29] <sobersabre> TUXedomember: usually you only need a text editor.....
[01:29] <mjancaitis> kitche: uname -a says "uname -a: Linux janc-laptop 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Aug 30 23:16:15 UTC 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux"... it's got SMP in the name, so I think it's installed
[01:29] <heguru> TUXedomember: bluefish
[01:30] <TUXedomember> ok how can i install bluefish?
[01:30] <mboldisc> TUXedomember: Quanta Plus
[01:30] <sobersabre> Curs0r: I have no idea, then maybe it should work out of the box.
[01:30] <sobersabre> Curs0r: why not simply try ?
[01:30] <heguru> TUXedomember: System -> Administration -> Synaptic
[01:30] <Curs0r> sobersabre oh, gee, that hadn't occurred to me :P anyone got any helpful input?
[01:30] <kitche> mjancaitis, yep you have a smp kernell so your system should eb seeing two cores
[01:31] <mjancaitis> And yet it doesn't :(
[01:31] <sobersabre> Curs0r: are you considering to purchase iSCSI hardware and want to know if it works ?
[01:31] <Inox> hey fellas  ihave php and pear already installed, i modify php.ini in order to tell php where to find pear's libraries, but my site doesn't start, apache is working, and postgresql too, so is there anything I haven't done well?
[01:31] <mjancaitis> OH wait
[01:31] <kitche> mjancaitis, pastebin your cat /proc/cpuinfo for me
[01:31] <jackfusion> Jordan_U: I am trying to run xampp from my ipod like in running xampp from a usb drive in linux and run the windows version from the ipod as well as in running from usb so that I can run a web site when running xampp with out the restriction for the os
[01:31] <soundray> mjancaitis: two possibilities: your BIOS may disable one core, or your CPU is really only single core.
[01:31] <DARKGuy> hey could any bash guru help me in trying to run " audacious -e "file" " for each occurrence in "find -iname "*.mp3" -type f" ? :(
[01:31] <Curs0r> sobersabre if I had to purchase n hba adapter I wouldn't bother
[01:32] <Inox> I mean in ubuntu?
[01:32] <sobersabre> Curs0r: I don't understand you....
[01:32] <sobersabre> what do you want ? :)
[01:32] <DARKGuy> actually, it's "audacious -e "file" && killall audacious" so it enqueues each file :p
[01:32] <sobersabre> to ask how is the weather ?
[01:32] <sobersabre> :)
[01:32] <dstadulis> fujin_: Thanks for your help I got it working
[01:32] <contradiction-pi> hello, a while ago i installed feisty and my built in sd card reader worked out of the box. then, i reinstalled it and it stopped working. is there some package which is now *not* automatically installed?
[01:32] <mjancaitis> kitche and soundray: I just realized my grub tags have "nosmp" in them, could that be screwing my ability to see two cores?
[01:32] <Curs0r> sobersabre http://etherboot.org/wiki/iscsiboot?DokuWiki=ba9bad453469934e8268f2f79c412727
[01:32] <soundray> DARKGuy: I don't claim that title, but try 'find . -iname *mp3 -type f -print0 | xargs -0 audacious -e'
[01:33] <soundray> mjancaitis: very possible
[01:33] <mjancaitis> kitche: I think I stuck them in there because I saw it somewhere to get the thing to boot at all... I think I'll try taking it out
[01:33] <Curs0r> sobersabre I'm trying to find out if anyone has succeeded with that method or something similar
[01:33] <DARKGuy> soundray, hey that did it!!! :D thanks a LOT guru :P :P :P
[01:33] <monkeyBox> Hi all. What do I do if ubuntu doesn't have a kernel module I need?  I'm trying to modprobe pca9540 and it says: "FATAL: Module pca9540 not found."
[01:34] <XiXaQ> (hd1,0) is sdb1?
[01:34] <heguru> DARKGuy: for f in `find -iname "*.mp3" -type f`; do audacious -e $f; done
[01:34] <DARKGuy> lol
[01:34] <sobersabre> Curs0r: well, the writer of this article seems a nice guy.
[01:34] <sobersabre> how about this general article: http://www.cuddletech.com/articles/iscsi/index.html
[01:34] <soundray> heguru: mine's better :)
[01:35] <sobersabre> found it with GooglE
[01:35] <mjancaitis> kitche: ps, here's cpuinfo for you; http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38404/
[01:35] <DARKGuy> heguru, that would work too, but I tried to run that and it only ran audacious once, so I had to close it so it enqueued the next one x)

[01:37] <jackfusion> Jordan_U: what do you mean? different preffix
[01:38] <soundray> aleka: see if the launcher logs an error to $HOME/.xsession-errors
[01:38] <Jordan_U> jackfusion, ./configure --prefix , you should find a guide for compiling from source ( I assume that is what you are doing )

[01:41] <Jordan_U> Fluffy-Wuffy, Do you have a link to the file?
[01:41] <Curs0r> http://etherboot.org/wiki/httpboot heh, neat
[01:41] <aleka> thanks guys... looks like the launcher was set to run 'awn-manager' instead of 'avant-window-manager'
[01:41] <Inox> done
[01:41] <Inox> thanks
[01:41] <Armor_Azrael> Hey, I've got a multi (8) core system, and 6 of the cores are locked up.
[01:42] <Armor_Azrael> I can fix the problem by rebooting, but I'd like to figure out what's locking them.
[01:42] <Fluffy-Wuffy> no Jordan_U
[01:42] <Armor_Azrael> Is there a way to find out what job is running on each cpu?
[01:42] <skyfaller> I'm having trouble loading the alsa driver with modprobe... anyone got ideas?
[01:42] <Armor_Azrael> (htop/top reveals that no job is using much cpu, so they're being locked on IO)
[01:42] <Fluffy-Wuffy> i would have gladly copied the video to my windows partition and watched it on there but Ubuntu doesnt support that
[01:43] <jackfusion> Jordan_U: nope from the website says to extract the file to the /opt/ then type /opt/lampp/lampp start to start the server.  But in the files I want to change ever instance of /opt/ to /media/IPOD/ so the server will run from my ipod.
[01:43] <Buffalo960>  Hello, I am having trouble with my sound on ubuntu feisty. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-KVM800M and the sound card it integrated(I belive it is a realtek). It does not show up in the hardware list.
[01:43] <jackfusion>  Jordan_U: instead of running from /opt/
[01:44] <Jordan_U> jackfusion, You may need to compile from source, and even if you don't need to compiling from source will almost definitely work
[01:44] <Jordan_U> Buffalo960, What is the output of "asoundconf list" ?
[01:45] <jackfusion> Jordan_U: but the site dose not give the source download.
[01:46] <Paul_3939> join FAQ
[01:46] <Meroigo_> I made a link in nautilus to a folder, if I delete the link by pressing shift+delete on it, the contents of the folder wont be deleted right?
[01:47] <skyfaller> Jordan_U: ooh, are you knowledgeable about ALSA?  can you help me with the directions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookProSantaRosa ? I'm stuck with errors
[01:47] <Jordan_U> jackfusion, Well, I guess since the point of XAMPP is to make installation easier compiling from source would defeat the purpose
[01:47] <Jordan_U> skyfaller, I have been looking
[01:47] <Jordan_U> skyfaller, Can you give specific errors?
[01:48] <skyfaller> Jordan_U: OK, thanks :)  I just asked in #alsa too
[01:48] <skyfaller> Jordan_U: lemme get a pastebin link up
[01:48] <Buffalo960> Jordan_U, I do not know exactly what I am looking for, could i possible send you the entire asoundconf in private chat?
[01:49] <Ben_Cs> hey guys
[01:49] <Flannel> jackfusion: Why XAMPP?  Why not just use a LAMP stack?  It's super easy to setup.
[01:49] <skyfaller> Jordan_U: maybe you could join me in #alsa? :)
[01:49] <Jordan_U> Buffalo960, Use pastebin
[01:49] <Ben_Cs> hear something funny, iTunes on WinXP has bug that gtkpod on Linux doesn't :) LOL   Linux beats apple?
[01:49] <Jordan_U> Buffalo960, But "asoundconf list" should be at most two lines
[01:50] <jackfusion> oh because it runs under windows as well

[01:51] <redstinger> Wow
[01:51] <fiXXXerMet> My swap device should be listed when I do df or mount, right?  Because I don't see it there.
[01:51] <osmosis> Im having a problem with the update-grub script. There is no place in my menu.lst file to configure console options on the initrd line.
[01:51] <soundray> Thanks PriceChild, Amaranth
[01:52] <fujin_> no, you shouldn't see your swap device mounted with mount or df
[01:52] <Jordan_U> Buffalo960, Ok, so it sees a sound card at least, do you see track when you run "alsamixer" ?
[01:52] <fujin_> swapon -s will tell you
[01:52] <fujin_> cat /proc/swaps, also
[01:52] <salvator2> When you clear cookies, history ect. via mozilla on ubuntu, is it like windows and sitll archives everything that you do?

[01:52] <Jordan_U> osmosis, What are you trying to do exactly?
[01:52] <aleka> how can I disable the taskbar?
[01:53] <osmosis> Jordan_U: you know how ubuntu does that whole auto setup of the grub menu.lst file ?
[01:53] <soundray> aleka: right-click, remove from panel
[01:53] <osmosis> Jordan_U:  so this line in menu.lst   # defoptions=quiet serial console=ttyS0,19200n8
[01:53] <osmosis> Jordan_U: sets my serial console.
[01:53] <aleka> soundray:  and if I want it at a later point? where do I go in the menues to bring the task bar back?
[01:54] <redstinger> I need help on installing Wine. I'm new to Ubuntu
[01:54] <soundray> aleka: right click on the panel, select Add to Panel
[01:54] <Jordan_U> salvator2, I don't know but if you are paranoid you can just delete .mozilla in your home folder and guarentee it's all gone
[01:54] <osmosis> Jordan_U: only problem is...those options need to be in the initrd line to work, and update-grub  doesn't put them there. It only puts them on the kernel line.
[01:54] <soundray> aleka: it's called Window List applet
[01:54] <Buffalo960> Jordan_U, Yes I do, it also recognizes the chip Realtek ALC655
[01:54] <aleka> soundray:  Thanks :)
[01:55] <Jordan_U> osmosis, I assume you have checked man update-grub to see if there is more syntax available?
[01:55] <abhishek> fusion is complaining about a x11-xcb package, anyone got ideas?

[01:55] <rsk> salvator2: yes
[01:55] <Jordan_U> salvator2, Yes

[01:57] <mabo> hello
[01:57] <mabo> someone there?
[01:57] <redstinger> It's a circus here.
[01:58] <soundray> !please | mabo
[01:58] <ubotu> mabo: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience
[01:58] <juan> can you store a password in crypttab

[01:58] <LOrENz> hello, someone know how to replace a word in many different directory
[01:59] <Jordan_U> Buffalo960, Try unmuting everything just in case ( probably won't help but who knows )
[01:59] <mabo> ahh ok
[01:59] <mabo> let me see
[01:59] <soundray> LOrENz: can you rephrase that question
[01:59] <bruenig> LOrENz, explain what you mean, do you mean a word in many text files in different directories, or renaming directories or what
[01:59] <disposition> i have my hd partition into two drives (sda and sda2) and somehow 15 gigs from sda2 are stored in sda somehow
[01:59] <LOrENz> yes
[01:59] <bruenig> yes is not a suitable response to that question
[01:59] <jackfusion> Can some one help me with my error XAMPP: - Fatal: unable to read configureation file '/opt/lampp/etc/proftpd.cof' : No such file or directory
[01:59] <jackfusion> XAMPP: Error 1! couln't start ProFTPD!
[02:00] <soundray> bruenig: I guess he was replying to me.
[02:00] <bruenig> oh perhaps
[02:00] <disposition> when i do disk usage analyzer, it's saying that it's 100% full and that my mounted partition is only 16.2gb, when it's not
[02:01] <disposition> anyone have any ideas?
[02:01] <LOrENz> <bruenig changing like color=red by color=blue in many different files in many directories
[02:01] <soundray> disposition: ignore it then and use df -h
[02:01] <soundray> LOrENz: are they all html files?
[02:01] <LOrENz> php
[02:01] <Jla4ko> how to make auto addme script
[02:01] <disposition> it's saying sda1 is 17gg, and 16g are in use
[02:02] <busta811> how do i turn on autotuning?
[02:02] <bruenig> LOrENz, there are a few ways to do it, if there is some parent directory that you can cd into, you can just do: find . -type f -exec sed 's/color=red/color=blue/g' -i '{}' \;
[02:02] <disposition> i don't know how 16g are being used when i just installed 2 days ago and did mostly apt-gets
[02:02] <eugman> Is there a way to make a files in openoffice to have a footer on all pages except the first one?
[02:02] <soundray> LOrENz: 'find /var/www -name *.php -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i '/color\=red/color\=blue/g'
[02:02] <bruenig> LOrENz, after cding into the parent directory of course
[02:02] <macd> busta811, you mean to tell me you want to turn it back on, after you turned it off against everyones recommendations yesterday.
[02:02] <bruenig> = needs to be escaped?
[02:03] <LOrENz> thanks !!
[02:03] <busta811> no i want to see the difference lol
[02:03] <disposition> i think what i has done is put 16.2gb of my mounted partition into my sda1
[02:03] <busta811> but i forgot how to do it
[02:03] <disposition> which doesn't make sense to me
[02:03] <LOrENz> you guys are powerfull :)
[02:03] <soundray> bruenig: I don't know, if in doubt I escape ;)
[02:03] <sethk> disposition, you think that apt-get doesn't write to the disk?
[02:03] <bruenig> well sed escape rules are different from ls escape rules and others
[02:04] <disposition> i don't think that apt-get takes up 16gb
[02:04] <salvator2> what is the default password for root?
[02:04] <bruenig> !root | salvator2
[02:04] <ubotu> salvator2: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[02:04] <kitche> salvator2, there isn't one
[02:04] <punsad> salvator2: there isn't one
[02:04] <salvator2> o
[02:04] <busta811> how do i turn autotuning on/off?
[02:04] <Badpenguin86> What is a program I can use to open .rar?
[02:04] <jrib> !rar > Badpenguin86 (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:04] <bruenig> !info unrar | Badpenguin86
[02:04] <ubotu> badpenguin86: unrar: Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:3.7.3-1 (feisty), package size 94 kB, installed size 228 kB
[02:04] <disposition> could it be because i mounted my partition to /media/disponia instead of mnt/disponia?
[02:04] <sethk> salvator2, the default password for root is one that cannot be entered with the keyboard
[02:05] <bruenig> if you unlock it, is there actually a password there?
[02:05] <tico1> hey guysss how are u
[02:05] <bruenig> or do they fiddle with the passwd file to make it so you can't ever get it even when unlocked
[02:05] <Jordan_U> salvator2, There is no default password for root
[02:05] <Buffalo960> Jordan_U, I unmuted everything and still no sound.
[02:05] <TUXedomember> is the a graphical web design program for ubuntu be side's kompozer
[02:05] <kitche> bruenig, it's probbaly makes it empty
[02:06] <Jordan_U> !root | salvator2
[02:06] <ubotu> salvator2: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[02:06] <bruenig> so unlock it, then do su, and the password is nothing?
[02:06] <tico1> salvator2: try $ sudo su
[02:06] <Armor_Azrael> bruenig: It makes it empty to enable people to use the other init level without needing a root password
[02:06] <sethk> disposition, mount points generally do not consume space.  The programs that show you free and used space on a partition are not broken by mounts
[02:06] <tico1> salvator2: then set a new passwork
[02:06] <Armor_Azrael> So you can boot up to single user mode
[02:06] <kitche> bruenig, well su likes a password
[02:06] <tico1> salvator2: password**
[02:06] <bruenig> kitche, no but I mean just pressing enter
[02:06] <macd> busta811, 'sudo netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=enabled' then reboot.
[02:06] <soundray> tico1: please don't recommend setting a password in ubuntu. It's not designed for that (tico1)
[02:06] <salvator2> Ok, i'll try them all
[02:06] <salvator2> or not...
[02:06] <sethk> bruenig, there is a facility built into unix, which linux has emulated, to create a password that cannot be entered via the keyboard
[02:06] <busta811> k ty
[02:07] <macd> busta811, disregard that
[02:07] <Jla4ko> how to make auto addme script via ssh
[02:07] <sethk> bruenig, however, you can easily change the root password
[02:07] <disposition> sethk, why would it be that 16.2gb on a 17gb fresh partition are immediately taken up? it says that all the usage is coming from /media/disponia but that's my mount point
[02:07] <acee1234> im trying to use audacity to edit some audio but i get an error whenever i try to playback something reading "Error while opening sound device. Please check the output device settings and the project sample rate."
[02:07] <tico1> soundray:why?
[02:07] <acee1234> any ideas
[02:07] <sethk> disposition, try running   "df -h" from the command line, and paste the results.
[02:07] <soundray> tico1: and please don't recommend sudo su either - it gets you an environment that consists of mixed root and user variables.
[02:07] <busta811> its not like that?
[02:08] <princez_cutez> biar ga suntuk makan apa yak?
[02:08] <Buffalo960> Jordan_U, I unmuted everything and still no sound. Do you have any other ideas?
[02:08] <Man_id_Unknown> Help: How do I strip unnecessary symbols from a shared library I created with gcc??
[02:08] <soundray> tico1: in ubuntu, you use sudo to change system settings. It's a safer approach. Details on the help pages.
[02:08] <sethk> tico1, sudo su makes little sense.  would you do  sudo sudo?  sudo su is actually worse than that, as someone just said.
[02:08] <soundray> !sudo > tico1
[02:08] <tico1> soundray: but I still use without problem.... since soo long time ago!
[02:09] <soundray> !worksforme | tico1
[02:09] <ubotu> tico1: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/
[02:09] <bruenig> sudo su is no problem
[02:09] <dale> I have a really simple question.. i don't know where to navigate to when I hit browse to change my default media player to VLC
[02:09] <Jordan_U> sethk, In what way "cannot be entered via keyboard"? Like using char 8? I thought it was a configured so there was no password, so init levels / single user mode / setUID were the only way of getting root privileges
[02:09] <acee1234> any ideas atol?
[02:10] <bruenig> if you su as root, it spawns another root shell
[02:10] <tret> how do you shut down pppd
[02:10] <sethk> Jordan_U, no, that's not correct.  The configuration, with respect to root, is _precisely_ the same as every other linux distribution.  There is a myth floating around that root is "disabled", which is nonsense.
[02:10] <busta811> macd isnt that comand for vista lol?
[02:10] <busta811> it said command not found
[02:10] <macd> busta811, give me a second to ggrep your log for yesterday to find it
[02:10] <soundray> bruenig: it's still a mixed environment. sudo su - is probably better, but why not stick to the sane sudo -i
[02:10] <busta811> ok
[02:10] <macd> busta811, yeah it wasnt meant for here
[02:11] <dale> I have a really simple question.. i don't know where to navigate to when I hit browse to change my default media player to VLC
[02:11] <alex-weej> this set is fucking lush!
[02:11] <Wolfsong> i know there is something in the documentation for this but need a lil help finding it again
[02:11] <Jordan_U> sethk, I am not saying that it is not, I understand that root still exists, and that it is nothing Ubuntu specific
[02:11] <Wolfsong> i'm getting a black screen after enabling restricted drivers
[02:11] <Man_id_Unknown> Help: How do I strip unnecessary symbols from a shared library I created with gcc??
[02:11] <busta811> i remember is sumthing like 1 is enabled and 0 is disabled
[02:12] <Wolfsong> anyone know how to resolve?
[02:12] <Armor_Azrael> Man_id_Unknown: See man strip
[02:12] <soundray> sethk: well, the correct expression is probably "locked" - as in the effect of running passwd -l
[02:12] <Man_id_Unknown> Yes, I have. I tried --strip-all, but all the symbols are still there!
[02:12] <Jordan_U> sethk, Just that you saying that it is a password that "cannot be entered via keyboard" implies that there is a way of escalating privileges to root with a password, which I thought was not possible in any way
[02:12] <Man_id_Unknown> Armor_Azrael: Can I explain the situation a bit more?
[02:12] <sethk> soundray, that's correct.  From the man page:  "The -l option disables an account by changing the password to a value which matches no possible encrypted value."
[02:13] <Jordan_U> sethk, That is unless you change the password of course
[02:13] <macd> busta811, the command is  echo "1" | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_moderate_rcvbuf
[02:13] <Man_id_Unknown> Armor_Azrael: When creating the shared lib, I linked to another static library. The static libraries proc names are being listed inside the shared lib. I don't want this.
[02:13] <sethk> Jordan_U, right, you have to change the password, so that you can type the password and it will be recognized.
[02:15] <Armor_Azrael> Man_id_Unknown: Try strip --strip-unneeded, it might do what you want
[02:15] <acee1234> if noone here knows where i can get help any ideas were i should go?
[02:15] <Man_id_Unknown> Armore_Azrael: I'll try.
[02:16] <laptap16> is pegwole idle?
[02:16] <laptap16> nvm
[02:16] <Man_id_Unknown> Armor_Azrael: Tried it. It didn't work.

[02:16] <mikebot> How can I extract something with 7zip?
[02:17] <Jordan_U> sethk, I understand that, so when you said "there is a facility built into unix, which linux has emulated, to create a password that cannot be entered via the keyboard" were you simply being imprecise or am I still not understanding.
[02:17] <Jordan_U> ?
[02:17] <soundray> acee1234: disabling ESD in Sys-Preferences-Sound can also be helpful

[02:18] <fiXXXerMet> My computer currently has two SATA drives in a RAID1 at /dev/md0 and that's what is mounted as root.  I'd like to add two PATA drives to the system and make them /dev/md1.  Problem is that when I add the two drives to the computer, GRUB gives an error - I guess the two drives are changing the boot order or something?  How can I fix this?
[02:18] <panosru> no one help me? :(
[02:18] <Jordan_U> sethk, To be clear I understand that you are referring to passwd -d
[02:18] <EvilAIM> Hey, question.  I changed the system pass, but now I don't know what it is...
[02:18] <osmosis> Jordan_U: I was attempting with a load a Xen kernel, and that one has ttySx turned off because I think xen uses its own serial port emulation for controlling terminals.
[02:18] <salvator2> anybody know how to view your buddy list on aim with gaim?
[02:18] <EvilAIM> anyone have ANY CLUE how to regain it whilst the system is still on...
[02:18] <acee1234> soundry i dont have those menues
[02:19] <soundray> acee1234: kubuntu doesn't use esd as far as I know... is it artsd? There must be some sound preference panel in KDE, too
[02:19] <Jordan_U> EvilAIM, You mean without rebooting?
[02:19] <EvilAIM> ya
[02:19] <EvilAIM> well, I don't wanna reboot...
[02:19] <disposition> sethk, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38405/
[02:19] <EvilAIM> because then I don't have a computer;)
[02:19] <acee1234> soundry there is but id doesnt say anything about artsd or anything like it
[02:19] <abhishek> can someone help me with fixing xgl, it gives me a garbled screen when i log into it
[02:19] <mikebot> Anyone know why I'm unable to extract files from a rar? THe file is (should be) complete, and no files get extracted when I ateempt to.
[02:19] <wastrel> EvilAIM: you fix it by rebooting
[02:20] <Jordan_U> EvilAIM, Not sure I understand... Did you change the root password or your user's password?
[02:20] <wastrel> mikebot: what are you doing to extrat it
[02:20] <Jordan_U> EvilAIM, If you changed the root password you should still be able to use sudo
[02:20] <soundray> acee1234: see if you have artsd running: 'ps ax | grep artsd' in konsole
[02:20] <mikebot> wasabi: First I tried the file archiver, then I tried 7zip
[02:20] <wastrel> mikebot: unrar
[02:20] <mikebot> wasabi: what is that?
[02:21] <mikebot> wastrel: ***
[02:21] <Jordan_U> EvilAIM, If you changed your user's password then you need to reboot into single user mode and change it
[02:21] <wastrel> it's a program to extract rar archives.  it's in multiverse.  enable multiverse and install unrar
[02:21] <EvilAIM> I'm using Phoenix...

[02:21] <EvilAIM> and I don't know the pass
[02:21] <EvilAIM> like, when I do sudo blah...
[02:21] <EvilAIM> it asks for a password, and I don't know it anymore
[02:21] <acee1234> soundry "31964 pts/1    S+     0:00 grep artsd"
[02:21] <wastrel> EvilAIM: you reboot into recovery mode  type  passwd <userid>
[02:21] <wastrel> then reboot back to normal mode
[02:21] <Jordan_U> EvilAIM, reboot into single user mode and change your password
[02:22] <EvilAIM> ummm
[02:22] <EvilAIM> how do I boot into recovery?
[02:22] <mikebot> wastrel: OK, but, I haven't had this problem before with other rars.
[02:22] <soundray> acee1234: it's not running then. Sorry, I don't know what could be blocking your audio device.
[02:22] <Jordan_U> EvilAIM, Press escape when grub is loading, you will see the option
[02:22] <fiXXXerMet> Anyone?  When I add new drives (pata) to my system, grub errors while trying to boot /dev/md0, which is two sata's in a raid1.
[02:22] <osmosis> now my only issue left is...grub msgs are going to the serial port now, but it fails to print them to the vga screen also. tty1  I guess that would be.
[02:22] <wastrel> EvilAIM: hit esc when you see the grub line at the top of the screen while you're booting
[02:22] <w0lt-_> Anyone have any suggestions for a PCI-Express x1 video card ?
[02:22] <Jordan_U> EvilAIM, BTW, recovery mode == single user mode
[02:22] <wastrel> EvilAIM: then use the arrow keys to choose the recovery mode
[02:22] <soundray> acee1234: repeat your question. If you don't get a reply, it's okay to repeat it after 10 or 15 minutes.
[02:22] <acee1234> ok
[02:23] <mikebot> wastrel: How do I use unrar?
[02:23] <acee1234> im trying to use audacity to edit some audio but i get an error whenever i try to playback something reading "Error while opening sound device. Please check the output device settings and the project sample rate."

[02:23] <laptap16> does anyone have time to help me setup my wireless internet?
[02:23] <EvilAIM> AHAHa

[02:24] <EvilAIM> thanks for your help.
[02:24] <abhishek> can someone help me with fixing xgl, it gives me a garbled screen when i log into it

[02:24] <Max_-> How can I know my web IP? If i try with ifconfig it only gives me the 192.168.x.x address.. now I need the one which is seen by this IRC server, for example.
[02:24] <punzada> Quick question: After a bad lock up I was forced to hard boot and run fsck as root to repair the problems, after doing that I now have two copies of my external HDD (usb2.0) listed on both my desktop and 'places'
[02:24] <abhishek> Jordan_U, x2300
[02:24] <punzada> anyone know how I can bring that back to just one?
[02:25] <dale> one last attempt...I can't find this info and I know it's going to be dead simple for someone to tell me...where do I navigate to to change my default player of a file type to VLC.. I've gone through all the folders and can't find the right file.
[02:25] <abhishek> Jordan_U, ATI x2300 mobility radeon
[02:25] <dale> that's when I click "browse"
[02:25] <Jordan_U> acee1234, Preferences -> Audio IO
[02:25] <mikebot> wastrel: Yikes, I think it's certainly working, though in the rar were like 12 folders each with its own files, yet it just extracted all the files into one big folder.
[02:25] <AzMoo[w] > hey, does anybody know how I can restrict ssh login access to my local network?
[02:25] <mikebot> Any way to fix that?
[02:25] <dale> sorry if my problem is not very difficult.
[02:25] <acee1234> jordan yes its ALSA
[02:25] <dale> it's plenty hard for me.
[02:26] <gregshallard> How do I change my proxy settings through terminal?
[02:26] <wastrel> mikebot: sorry dunno, maybe check the unrar man page
 set http_proxy=http://ip_addr:port
[02:26] <mikebot> wastrel: K, thanks for the help.
[02:26] <mikebot> Bye.
[02:26] <disgen> export http_proxy

[02:27] <acee1234> jordan working perfectly
[02:27] <gregshallard> disgen what about authentication?
[02:27] <capo> ive got compiz fusion working but i cant get to ccsm in xubuntu, and i cant apt-get it.  can anyone help me?
[02:27] <w0lt-_> Is the x2300 PCI x1 or X16?  I have the little x1 slot..
[02:27] <Jordan_U> AzMoo[w] , Don't foreward ssh?
[02:27] <abhishek> Jordan_U, any ideas?
[02:27] <Xero> capo: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager?
[02:27] <disgen> mmm maybe http://username:password@ip_addr:port/

[02:28] <astro76> AzMoo[w] , do you have a router?
[02:28] <Jordan_U> Xero, ccsm
[02:28] <Xero> That's why.
[02:28] <NemesisD> does anyone know of any shell commands to find my external ip (the ip of my router?)
[02:28] <Xero> Jordan_U, ccsm = compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:28] <gregshallard> disgen, what about authentication?
[02:28] <Jordan_U> Xero, Yes
[02:28] <capo> Xero: ya, i tried it already.  here's the error message. "E: Couldn't find package compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:28] <capo> "
[02:28] <disgen> My Google Earth hangs when is launched. Any suggestion?
[02:28] <AzMoo[w] > astro76: I have lots of routers.
[02:28] <soundray> nemesisD: no, but you can find out via a web service like whatismyip.com
[02:29] <Xero> capo: It isn't in feisty.
[02:29] <Xero> Either upgrade to Gutsy or download and compile source code.
[02:29] <Jordan_U> Xero, capo Are you trying to run Compiz or Compiz Fusion?
[02:29] <Xero> capo is trying to run Fusion.
[02:29] <NemesisD> soundray, im trying to make a shell script to write it to a file but i was trying to avoid getting into the whole CURL thing
[02:29] <capo> Compiz Fusion
[02:29] <astro76> AzMoo[w] , well if you're using one of them, then if you don't forward a port to an ssh server, no one can login, otherwise here... http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/87
[02:29] <gregshallard> I got compiz fusion working in Feisty...
[02:29] <Xero> gregshallard, what repo/source did you use?
[02:30] <capo> it's working in feisty, ive got shaky windows and what not, i just cant get to ccsm
[02:30] <AzMoo[w] > astro76: cheers.
[02:30] <Jordan_U> Xero, capo Compiz Fusion is available for Feisty from 3rd party repos, but it is not stable
[02:30] <gregshallard> Ill look.
[02:30] <Xero> Jordan_U, I already have it. I run Gutsy.
[02:30] <Xero> I'm just helping capo.
[02:30] <capo> it works great in Ubuntu, but im having trouble getting to ccsm in Xubuntu
[02:30] <Jordan_U> Xero, Does capo want Compiz Fusion? It doesn't sound like he does
 there are two other variables to set: proxy_user and proxy_passwd
[02:30] <Xero> Jordan_U, yes.
[02:31] <Xero> He does.
[02:31] <disgen> take a look at google
[02:31] <soundray> NemesisD: if your router supports ssh, you can probably extract the external IP via a one-line shell command
[02:31] <Cryoniq> oboy oboy... I can hardly wait untill Gutsy is released sharp.. :P
[02:31] <Jordan_U> Xero, "it works great in Ubuntu, but im having trouble getting to ccsm in Xubuntu" makes me think he just wants regular compiz preferences, not Compiz Fusion
[02:32] <Xero> Jordan_U, he said "Compiz Fusion" multiple times.
[02:32] <soundray> NemesisD: is using DynDNS or a similar service an option?
[02:32] <Jordan_U> capo, What do you have installed right now, compiz, or compiz fusion?
[02:32] <gregshallard> Xero, I'm just looking now.
[02:33] <atrus> i'm not sure why, but recently all video players when outputting to XV have garbled over-saturated colors. No clue where to start looking to investigate
[02:33] <capo> compiz fusion
[02:33] <NemesisD> soundray, im not sure what that is, i'm starting to thing this script idea isn't really useful, my ip rarely changes
[02:33] <Xero> gregshallard, it's probably Amaranth's repo.
[02:33] <Jordan_U> capo, How did you install it?
[02:33] <gregshallard> Xero, I think it might of been.
[02:33] <CyberCod> anyone in here mess with 64bit processors?
[02:33] <Jordan_U> capo, And what version of Ubuntu are you using?

[02:34] <CyberCod> well, what I need to know, is does one HAVE TO install a 64bit version of an operating system when the PC has a 64 bit capable processor?
[02:35] <mat1> hello
[02:35] <soundray> CyberCod: no
[02:35] <CyberCod> so they will run fine with regular Ubuntu?
[02:35] <CyberCod> no issues?
[02:35] <icus> I seem to be missing lots of things in synaptec (eg. ndisgtk) and every time I check updates it says gzip returns an error.  I have all the repositories checked.  any thoughts?
[02:35] <soundray> CyberCod: yes. You'll have fewer problems with 32bits even.
[02:36] <mat1> can someone tell my why the 6.10 live cd works but the 7.04 or 7.10 live cds dont work
[02:36] <mat1> on my computer
[02:36] <capo> Jordan_U: i also used this guide: http://tinyurl.com/3df4z9
[02:36] <soundray> mat1: maybe if you disclose a little more information about the failure mode?
[02:37] <zenmonk> how do you run a gcc program you created?  I have already chmodded it.
[02:37] <mat1> well when i try to use a live cd for 7.04 or newer it says loading linux kernal
[02:37] <mat1> and just stays there
[02:37] <soundray> zenmonk: if it's not on the path, enter the full pathname. Or try './yourprogram' if it's in the present working directory
[02:38] <soundray> mat1: how long have you waited?
[02:38] <zenmonk> soundray: thats it.  Do you know what a segmentation fault is?
[02:38] <mat1> quite a long time
[02:39] <mat1> 30 minutes at most
[02:39] <mat1> but the 6.10 cd works fine
[02:39] <soundray> zenmonk: it's what is called a general protection fault in Windows. A program trying to access memory ranges that it's not allowed to access.
[02:39] <mat1> just the newer versions that dont load
[02:39] <zenmonk> hmm
[02:40] <jerbear> is there any way to make make-ssl-cert use a different expiration date? it defaults to like 2 or 3 months from the time you create it
[02:40] <Xero> Wow. Linux has GPF's?
[02:41] <soundray> Xero: every OS that has protected memory has a failure mode for programs that step over the boundaries.
[02:41] <soundray> Xero: Linux handles those much more gracefully, of course.
[02:41] <vulcanius> anyone know of any software for doing things like tree hierarchies and such?
[02:41] <danyn> hi room

[02:42] <danyn> mat1 left

[02:45] <capo> are there codecs i need to install for xubuntu to play ogg vorbis?  amarok wont add my music to the library for some reason
[02:45] <Flats> hello.  Is there anything I have to do to be able to ping a windows device on the same network from Ubuntu via hostname rather than IP?
[02:45] <osmosis> Where are system shutdown msgs configured?
[02:46] <Flats> I can ping IP but not hostname
[02:46] <capo> alright, never mind
[02:46] <TUXedomember> what's a graphical web page editor?????????????????????????????
[02:46] <soundray> Flats: add the ip and hostname to /etc/hosts
[02:46] <macd> Flats, does 'host hostname' show the hosts IP ?
[02:46] <Armor_Azrael> Flats: If you've got a DNS server serving the hostname, or if you've got its IP and hostname in your /etc/hosts, you're fine

[02:49] <danyn> TUXedomember>are you having problems installing it?

[02:54] <Wolfsong> i'm booting to a blank screen after enabling restricted nvidia drivers...any suggestions? i know it's related to output to the external display just can't remember where i found the fix
[02:54] <hbcm> i'm experiencing ttechnical difficulties
[02:54] <TUXedomember> i don't have a ftp publishing place but a https://
[02:55] <hbcm> are you using fiesty wolf?
[02:56] <Wolfsong> hbcm: yes
[02:56] <danyn> TUX>https has nothing to do with ftp, it just means that its a secure http connection
[02:56] <hbcm> and you can't remember the web page
[02:56] <hbcm> >
[02:56] <hbcm> ?
[02:56] <salvator1> would Beryl be a good idea for a new user?
[02:57] <TUXedomember> well then i don't know what the publishing ftp is
[02:57] <Wolfsong> i thought it was in linked in the user docs but it isn't...there's a bug somewhere in launchpad...just haven't found it yet
[02:57] <danyn> salvator1>its pretty easy to use, and i got it running within minutes, so i would say its ok for a new user
[02:58] <danyn> TUX>so how did you normally get your website updated?
[02:58] <macd> TUXedomember, so you publish via webdav, did you set KompoZer to publish via webdav?
[02:58] <hbcm> i think its under https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Video wolfsong: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Video
[02:58] <TUXedomember> umm no, i'm new to web design so...
[02:59] <macd> TUXedomember, well, I suggest you read the documentation on kompozer before trying to publish with it, if you dont have it setup to publish how do you expect it to automagically work?
[02:59] <danyn> TUX> where is your website hosted? on a private server, or on a site hosting server?
[02:59] <TUXedomember> it's on comcast.
[02:59] <Unununium> Hello, helping my brother set up 32-bit Firefox on his AMD64 laptop, so I'm reading FirefoxAMD64FlashJava.  But the "MPlayer plugins" link is bad.  Any advice?
[03:00] <Unununium> TUX> what is your quest?
[03:00] <TUXedomember> ?
[03:00] <danyn> TUX> hold on a sec while i look at comcast's web hosting site
[03:00] <Unununium> Someone should teach him that one :^)
[03:00] <macd> TUXedomember, and how did comcast tell you to copy your website to their hosting location?
[03:00] <jrib> Unununium: well my advice would be to install 32bit ubuntu
[03:01] <Unununium> We already have a working 32-bit Firefox set up with several plugins, just not mplayer
[03:01] <Red-Sox> For some reason, when I change the volume in ubuntu, nothing happens, even when I mute it!
[03:01] <xIke> this is a hell of a longshot, but anyone have any idea how to get america's army working in ubuntu?
[03:01] <TUXedomember> i used front page for my personal page but for a different page and site i'm publishing with kompozer so i don't know
[03:01] <jrib> Unununium: sure, but everything "just works" on 32bit ubuntu
[03:01] <Unununium> I know, I know, but a 64-bit installation DVD is what he has
[03:02] <macd> TUXedomember, well step 1 for you is to contact comcast and find out how you can publish, via ftp, webdav, os some other method, then configure kompozer to publish via that method
[03:02] <Unununium> And he's a couple hundred miles away from me so I can't physically hand him something else
[03:02] <macd> TUXedomember, and according to the kompozer documentation: "NVU and KompoZer are not capable of anything other than standard ftp. If you need something different, you will have to Save your work to a local file, and then use some other product to upload it to the server."
[03:02] <TUXedomember> ok thnx
[03:03] <danyn> TUX>also try contacting comcast and asking how you can upload html directly to the server
[03:03] <danyn> html files rather
[03:03] <snadge> is there a sane way to get nvidia 8600GTS working with restricted drivers in feisty?
[03:04] <jrib> !nvidia > snadge (read the private message from ubotu)
[03:04] <snadge> thanks jrib
[03:05] <jrib> Unununium: I don't know what that tar.gz is supposed to be, but here is what I would try first.  You tar up the mplayer plugins from a 32bit system you have and send them to him and tell him to extract to the same place
[03:05] <Unununium> Good idea
[03:05] <Unununium> Thanks!  It'll take me a couple of days to get around to that, though, so... goodbye for now
[03:06] <TUXedomember> as i'm waiting for screem to download what's a AI for ubuntu that i can get?
[03:06] <Red-Sox> Actually, the volume control does work for my mac's internal speaker when my speaker's aren't plugged in
[03:06] <jrib> argh, he left right after I found a mirror
[03:07] <Red-Sox> I've tried selecting a different device but nothing happens
[03:07] <Ownatik> hi, I accidently restored MBR and I can't boot in linux anymore, is there a quick way I could reinstall grub?
[03:07] <soundray> jrib: you could always update the help page...
[03:07] <macd> !grub | Ownatik
[03:07] <ubotu> Ownatik: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:07] <ari_stress> Ownatik: boot use the livecd
[03:08] <ari_stress> Ownatik: then run: sudo grub-install /dev/hda
[03:08] <Ownatik> thanks a lot
[03:08] <hbcm> bhaal: my video card isn't detected
[03:08] <macd> ari_stress, that makes a gross assumption his drive is hda1
[03:08] <jrib> soundray: true, but I was going to ask him to do that after he tested http://linux.vanvalkinburgh.org/2007/06/26/64bit-users-mplayer-support-for-firefox32/ .  I guess I can leave a note instead
[03:08] <ari_stress> macd: yes :)

[03:22] <danyn> sass> you need to install the libmad package
[03:22] <danyn> psyber>yes i use it, what did you need help with?
[03:22] <sasa> danyn: I did install a package (it says libmad0)
[03:23] <sasa> danyn: it doesn't require a reboot I take it?
[03:23] <Psyber> danyn: I have awm installed  and I can run it.  But how can I set it up to be an application launcher instead of a window manager?
[03:23] <danyn> sasa>probably does
[03:23] <kag> hey guys, I'm having a weird problem, when I boot the sound is working right, but it seems after my screen saver comes on (it's the flying toaster, if it matters), it doesn't work anymore... Totem says the audio output is in use by another application
[03:23] <avt3kk> cd to adminn folder??? how
[03:24] <sasa> danyn: thank you, I will try. another question: what is the best application taht will allow ripping dvds to mpg or avi or similar files?
[03:24] <danyn> psyber>it doesnt work as an application launcher as far as i know, also many feature from the windows version isnt in the linux version, as the linux version is behind in development
[03:24] <Plutoprim1> I setup software raid on my box. 3 Harddrives. I created 2 partitions on drives 1 and 2 as raid 1 for BOOT and SWAP. Then I created a third partition on all 3 drives set as RAID 5.

[03:27] <Rageon> guys im really confused.. my root password keeps changing to my home account password !?!!
[03:27] <danyn> caronte23>and it said that the package was successfully installed?
[03:27] <caronte23> no
[03:27] <danyn> sasa>no it isnt
[03:27] <jrib> Rageon: there is no root password by default.  It's not needed
[03:27] <caronte23> danyn, I had mistaken
[03:28] <jrib> !password > tators (read the private message from ubotu)
[03:28] <tators> thanks jrib
[03:28] <linxuz3r> who thinks ubuntu rocks here??????????????????????
[03:28] <sasa> danyn: that's horrible...how come?
[03:28] <MasterShrek> sasa, enable multiverse
[03:28] <Rageon> when i goto user accounts i set the root password and the home account password.. different passwords.. reboot and their both the same/
[03:28] <MasterShrek> sudo apt-get install dvdrip
[03:28] <carlosV2> i'm going to reboot, bye
[03:28] <carlosV2> :) and thanks for the IRDA info
[03:28] <fpreto> Man_id_Unknown: i've never compiled a shared library, but i've compiled some stuffs that required SDL or other libs
[03:28] <MasterShrek> Rageon, are u thinking the root password is the same as the sudo password?
[03:29] <Man_id_Unknown> fpreto: Do you have any experience with strip?
[03:29] <Rageon> no.. as i said i goto System > Admin > user Accounts
[03:29] <danyn> sasa>it just isnt in the ubuntu repositories. try searching on the debian applications site, it might have a self install file on there. or try www.exit1.org/dvdrip/ and look for a debian package
[03:29] <mm23> hello , i would like to know what are the commands line (terminal) for connect & disconnect from from the internet (Adsl connection) ?
[03:29] <Rageon> unless Root under that means Sudo
[03:29] <jrib> Rageon: why are you trying to set a password for root?
[03:29] <MasterShrek> where are you entering the root password?
[03:29] <avt3kk> I need a wine guru
[03:29] <MasterShrek> if u want to set it, type sudo passwd root
[03:29] <danyn> avt3kk>what do you need?
[03:30] <pike_> avt3kk: most of them are probably in #winehq  :)
[03:30] <fpreto> Man_id_Unknown: never used :(
[03:30] <MasterShrek> wine is for pansies
[03:30] <Rageon> i am entering the root password System > Admin > user Accounts
[03:30] <HealthyElijah> How do I ignore a user in Pidgin
[03:30] <Man_id_Unknown> fpreto: Understood. Thank you either way. ;)
[03:30] <danyn> avt3kk> pike_ is also right
[03:30] <MasterShrek> Rageon, set it using sudo passwd root and see if that works
[03:30] <jrib> Rageon: you keep repeating that and ignoring the questions we ask.... We can't help you that way
[03:31] <Rageon> he asked again :s
[03:31] <MasterShrek> HealthyElijah, right click their name > block
[03:31] <avt3kk> ty Pike :)
[03:31] <tators> jrib: I booted into recovery mode and its asking my username/password
[03:31] <tators> where do I put the command
[03:31] <jrib> tators: that means you set a root password.  Did you forget that too?
[03:31] <tators> yea
[03:31] <HealthyElijah> MasterShrek: Thanks
[03:31] <tators> I am the root
[03:32] <Rageon> is /root (root) or is / (root) ?
[03:32] <MasterShrek> Rageon, / is the root directory, /root is the user root's home directory
[03:32] <Rageon> ahh ok
[03:32] <jrib> tators: huh?  What do you mean by "I am the root"?  Didn't you say it was asking you for a password?
[03:32] <tators> yeah
[03:32] <danyn> /root is the user profile for the root user, / is the root of the filesystem
[03:32] <tators> I press f11
[03:32] <tators> then it counts down 1,2,3
[03:32] <sayers> With openoffice if  I make a bussiness card will it make multiple and fill page or just one big one?
[03:32] <danyn> what mastershrek said :)
[03:32] <tators> then goes to the orange ubuntu screen
[03:32] <mm23> how can i start & stop my internet connection from the terminal ?
[03:33] <dv310p3r> Ok, need help with built in SD card reader. When i run dmesg after a fresh reboot, nothing shows on the last line, after inserting a SD card, this is what shows: [10889.428000]  tifm_core: SmartMedia/xD card detected in socket 0:0. How can I gain access to the file?
[03:33] <Rageon> so its like.. when it pops up asking me for a password its not actually asking for root? just my home accounts root?
[03:33] <fpreto> Man_id_Unknown: sorry for not being useful =] 
[03:33] <tators> and asks what my username: then password: are
[03:33] <MasterShrek> mm23, ifconfig
[03:33] <avt3kk>  guys I just installed wine and im looking to install an exe but how
 im in the terminal and I changed directory to the user folder its in now what do I do??
[03:33] <MasterShrek> mm23, u need to use sudo
[03:33] <Man_id_Unknown> fpreto: Don't be. Remember, I don't have the answer to my question either.
[03:33] <MasterShrek> Rageon, yes, i believe thats the password for sudo
[03:33] <jrib> tators: right, because you set a root password which isn't needed.  Now you have to either edit the grub line and set "init=/bin/sh" or boot a live cd and chroot to your install so you can reset the password
[03:33] <pike_> Rageon: your user is a member of the admin group. this group has been added to the /etc/sudoers file and so can execute root stuff using sudo
[03:34] <Rageon> mm ic
[03:34] <tators> edit the grub line?
[03:34] <sasa> MasterShrek: thank you for the multiverse comment....that worked. However, when I try to install dvd::rip, I get an error message saying "could not mark all packages for installation or upgrade...following packages have unresolvable dependencies. Make sure that all required repositories are added and enabled in the preferences"
[03:34] <Psyber> Does anyone know the name of the Linux app launcher similar to the one on the mac?
[03:34] <MasterShrek> sasa what packages need dependencies?
[03:34] <jrib> Psyber: deskbar?
[03:34] <sasa> MasterShrek: dvdrip:
[03:34] <sasa>  Depends: transcode but it is not going to be installed
[03:34] <sasa>  Depends: gtk2-ex-formfactory-perl (>=0.65) but it is not installable
[03:34] <sasa>  Depends: libevent-execflow-perl (>=0.62) but it is not installable
[03:34] <sasa>  Depends: lsdvd but it is not going to be installed
[03:34] <sasa>  Depends: libevent-perl  but it is not installable
[03:34] <sasa>  Depends: ogmtools  but it is not installable
[03:34] <Rageon> still confusing.. i set a password for /root and one for /home/... but they change to become the same?
[03:35] <Xero> Psyber, KXdocker or OSXdock
[03:35] <Emperor886> Does anyone here know how to reset the Xorg.conf file from the command line after it has been backed up then changed?

[03:35] <Man_id_Unknown> Help: Does anyone here have experience with GCC ??
[03:35] <pike_> Rageon: root password is disabled by default

[03:35] <jrib> Emperor886: sudo cp /path/to/your/old/xorg.conf /path/to/your/new/xorg.conf
[03:35] <MasterShrek> sasa, does it say waht packages they conflict with?
[03:35] <Xero> Psyber, yes.
[03:35] <jrib> !anyone | Man_id_Unknown
[03:35] <ubotu> Man_id_Unknown: 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?
[03:35] <sasa> MasterShrek: that is all it lists in there...
[03:36] <Rageon> pike_ im not setting / im trying to /root
[03:36] <sasa> how could I find out?
[03:36] <Emperor886> jrib: I dont know the path's, I screwed up my Xorg.conf file and I can only get the command line when I boot Ubuntu now. I am using Puppylinux now.
[03:36] <sasa> maybe some pearl stuff??
[03:36] <Man_id_Unknown> Help: Does anyone know how to strip unecessary proc names from a shared lib ?
[03:36] <jrib> Rageon: you set the password for root.  Does 'su' in a terminal not work wiht that password now?
[03:36] <MasterShrek> sasa, do you have universe enabled also?
[03:36] <sasa> I do not, should I?
[03:36] <danyn> sasa>yes
[03:36] <MasterShrek> yes
[03:36] <jrib> Emperor886: so you don't know where the backup is?
[03:36] <sasa> cool, I'll do it now
[03:37] <MasterShrek> sasa, i usually enable all the ones that are listed, plus i usually end up adding a few more :)
[03:37] <jrattner> Question: How can I sync my google calendar with evolution?
[03:37] <Emperor886> jrib: It is backed up in the default place that Ubuntu would back it up in, but I have no idea where that is.
[03:37] <Rageon> i cant seem to explain myself :s
[03:37] <tators> ok so I'm reinstalling linux
[03:37] <tators> or starting from the live cd
[03:37] <jrib> Emperor886: what did you use?  dpkg-reconfigure?
[03:37] <tators> whatever its called
[03:37] <tators> how do I chroot
[03:37] <jrib> tators: try to keep what you say on a single line, or else the channel becomes too busy
[03:37] <tators> ok jrib
[03:37] <Rageon> basically when i goto install stuff in Syn package Manager.. it asks for password.. but the password is the same password i login with?
[03:38] <jrib> tators: join us here when you are on the livecd
[03:38] <pike_> Rageon: yes
[03:38] <danyn> rageon>yes
[03:38] <tators> I am on the cd now
[03:38] <jrib> Rageon: yes, that is intended
[03:38] <Rageon> hmmm ok
[03:38] <Emperor886> jrib: I gave the command 'sudo nvidia-glx-new enable' figuring that would render better, and Ubuntu automatically made a backup of my Xorg.conf file.
[03:38] <jrib> tators: mount your ubuntu partition
[03:38] <Psyber> Xero:  is there something that will run on Gnome that will act like the launch bar in OSX?
[03:38] <tators> what does that mean jrib
[03:38] <MasterShrek> Rageon, root is the user that has control of everything, the super mega god user, low life users, like your user that you log in with are given access to commands that only the root user should be able to execute, so they made sudo to do it
[03:38] <Xero> Psyber, OSXdock
[03:38] <danyn> tators>are you trying to log in as root?
[03:38] <Xero> I don't know where you'll get it, but it exists.
[03:39] <tators> danyn: I just want to log in, but because it is my pc, I want full access again
[03:39] <jrib> Emperor886: you do this 'cd /etc/X11'.  Then list what you see with 'ls'.  Then look for the backup (will be xorg.conf.blahblahblah or similar).  Then 'cp xorg.conf.blahblahblah xorg.conf'
[03:39] <sasa> MasterShrek: i'm in business...it's downloading now. Thank you!
[03:39] <tators> (Even if I don't log in as root anymore)
[03:39] <carlosV2> hello, i'm here another time jeje
[03:39] <MasterShrek> Xero, did you get your video card working? or was that someone else named Xero? theres a few lol
[03:39] <danyn> tators>if you are logged in on the live cd you have sudo rights, so you shouldnt need to login as root
[03:39] <carlosV2> i've a problem with IRDA :(
[03:39] <jrib> tators: do you know what partition your ubuntu is on?

[03:40] <tators> it is my entire computer
[03:40] <Xero> My video card has been working for a month.
[03:40] <Rageon> how do you tell whos Oped and who not in Pidgin?

[03:40] <danyn> tator>did you want to install linux to your computer?
[03:40] <MasterShrek> i didnt know if u were regged Xero :)
[03:40] <sasa> MasterShrek: I do have one more question: I installed K3b. Upon its startup, I get a message:  please install the MAD Mp3 decoding library as well as the K3b MAD Mp3 decoder plugin (the latter may already be installed but not functional due to the missing libmad). I installed package libmad0, but I still get the same error message. Any thoughts?
[03:40] <carlosV2> jrib, i'm sorry for paste here
[03:40] <jrib> Rageon: sure, install bitchx with your favorite package manager
[03:40] <Rageon> sorry its not pidgin its umm... x-chat
[03:40] <jrib> !info bitchx > Rageon
[03:41] <tators> danyn: linux is already on my computer, but I forgot the root password so I am rebooting with the livecd because I was told that is the first step to fixing hte problem
[03:41] <DarwinAwrdWinner> sasa, it told you to install two things. You installed only one of them
[03:41] <carlosV2> jrib, here is mi problem: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38416/
[03:41] <Emperor886> jrib: Thanks, will be back if it doesn't work.
[03:41] <danyn> tators>ah, i see. well can you log into your normal account on your computer without the live cd?
[03:41] <jrib> carlosV2: tell the channel, I don't know anything about that
[03:41] <Rageon> what do you guys use? if i had a half decent irc client id just version but yer lol
[03:41] <DarwinAwrdWinner> I believe the package you are looking for has "k3b" in the name, so searching for it should be easy
[03:41] <tators> danyn: no I can not log into the computer at all
[03:41] <Man_id_Unknown> Help: Does anyone know how to strip unecessary proc names from a shared lib ?
[03:41] <MasterShrek> sasa, try install libmad0-dev
[03:41] <jrib> Rageon: irssi is nice
[03:42] <jrib> tators: so, partition?
[03:42] <tators> jrib: partition what?
[03:42] <MasterShrek> sasa, and madplay if that still doesnt work
[03:42] <jrib> tators: do you know the partition ubuntu is on?
[03:42] <ep1> is there yahoo messenger for ubuntu ? there is one for debian and it isnt working
[03:42] <tators> jrib: I put it on my entire computer, I don't know what you are asking
[03:42] <Rageon> anyone here seen let it ride with richard drayfus?
[03:42] <jrib> ep1: use gaim
[03:42] <DarwinAwrdWinner> how about the libk3b2-mp3 package?
[03:42] <tators> jrib: there is no other os on this computer
[03:42] <jrib> tators: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[03:42] <MasterShrek> Rageon, #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:42] <Rageon> rgr
[03:43] <carlosV2> ok, you gave me this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IrdaHowto and i'm doing all but i've a problem with number 12 and the shell say this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38416/ (sorry for mi bad english, i'm from spain -.-)
[03:43] <ep1> jrib: I want to use the voice-in voice out of yahoo messenger, gaim doesnt have that option
[03:43] <danyn> caronte23>did you get it working?
[03:43] <nomasteryoda> kopete?
[03:43] <ep1> jrib: voice-in has an actual phone number assigned to it
[03:43] <underwatercow> Does any know why one of the programs I run wine with suddenly no longer accepts keyboard input? Is there a way I can fix it? or maybe reset whatever was messed up?
[03:43] <caronte23> danyn, noo
[03:43] <Man_id_Unknown> Help: How do I strip unecessary proc names from a shared lib ?
[03:43] <MasterShrek> ep1, google for an ubuntu package of it
[03:43] <caronte23> danyn, It can't find the package
[03:44] <danyn> caronte23>did you add the repositories in step 1?
[03:44] <MasterShrek> ep1, if u cant find one, the debian package should work fine also
[03:44] <nomasteryoda> underwatercow, did you just start using compiz?
[03:44] <Rageon> should i be using a different Package manager then what comes installed?
[03:44] <caronte23> danyn, caurse
[03:44] <MasterShrek> ep1, nvm, u said the debian pack doesnt work
[03:44] <caronte23> danyn, course
[03:44] <slashzul> how do you find out what package /usr/sbin/apachectl belongs to?
[03:44] <ep1> MasterShrek: yes I think it showed dependency problem
[03:44] <MasterShrek> Rageon, synaptic should work perfectly fine, theres also apt-get which is the command line version of it
[03:44] <underwatercow> nomasteryoda: Only desktop effects, which I disabled because it messed with wine. Also, keyboard is fine in other programs I run in wine... just in a particular one.
[03:45] <pike_> Rageon: i think youre expecting this to be harder than it is. i know its an adjustment but everything normally 'just works' :)
[03:45] <slashzul> I keep trying to install lamp server and get a fail with no /usr/sbin/apachectl is not executable
[03:45] <danyn> caronte>hold on one sec im reading over the page i sent you
[03:45] <Rageon> MasterShrek: cheers mate
[03:45] <MasterShrek> ep1, youll probably need the same dependency with an ubuntu package, what did it need?
[03:45] <krammer> need help installing ProFTPD 1.2
[03:45] <ep1> MasterShrek: ok sorry I think I need this sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.6
[03:45] <MasterShrek> probably ep1
[03:45] <DarwinAwrdWinner> slashzul, apt-file is a command-line utility file for searching for files in packages, installed or not
[03:45] <caronte23> danyn, ok
[03:45] <slashzul> how do you find out what package /usr/sbin/apachectl belongs to?
[03:45] <Rageon> pike_ yea its been over 2 years since i last used linux its alot more streamlined now :)
[03:45] <tarelerulz> I am really lost I updated my router and I still don't have udp and tcp  at the same time on port forwarding . I need it for azureus .   Is there other clients that don't need that?
[03:45] <DarwinAwrdWinner> apt-file search /usr/sbin/apachectl
[03:46] <slashzul> where is apachectl found ?
[03:46] <sasa> MasterShrek: I installed libmad dev and madplay and I still get the same message upon K3b startup
[03:46] <dubphiend> this is all over my head
[03:46] <DarwinAwrdWinner> of course, you have to install apt-file if it's not installed
[03:46] <MasterShrek> tarelerulz, ktorrent, transmission, or utorrent under wine should work fine
[03:46] <nomasteryoda> underwatercow, i have not seen that, but have had issues with compiz and other desktop apps...
[03:46] <DarwinAwrdWinner> sasa, how about the libk3b2-mp3 package?
[03:46] <jrib> slashzul: or use packages.ubuntu.com
[03:46] <carlosV2> somebody can help me with Fast IRDA Port, please?
[03:46] <nomasteryoda> underwatercow, make sure the process is not running and you are spawning a second one... that can cause such issues
[03:46] <Rageon> currently trying to see if i can configure it enough to make it usable for all the PC's in my house - and as ive discovered it all depends on me lol
[03:47] <underwatercow> nomasteryoda: I've tried restarting, and it still doesn't work
[03:47] <riot\hates\wifi> boo. hiss. my feisty cd isn't in my drive :'(
[03:47] <danyn> caronte23>well if you followed the page exactly like it said, there shouldnt be a problem that i see
[03:47] <MasterShrek> sasa, type locate libmad, mine are in /usr/lib dont paste the results here though, youll get kicked
[03:47] <Rageon> how come ubuntu server doesnt come with a GUI?
[03:47] <ep1> MasterShrek: It cant find libssl0.9.6
[03:47] <riot\hates\wifi> Rageon: cause uh, it's a server?
[03:47] <underwatercow> Ragon: because you don't typically want a GUI for a server
[03:48] <carlosV2> other cuestion, can i connect with Freenode by other port than 6667?
[03:48] <nomasteryoda> maybe do a wineconfig and review settings ... adding the app you need to the list of applications... that's my extent of knowhow on this.
[03:48] <nomasteryoda> hope you can get it working
[03:48] <riot\hates\wifi> and servers are typically not where one would use a GUI
[03:48] <MasterShrek> ep1, sudo apt-get install libssl
[03:48] <caronte23> danyn, I did what it sayd...
[03:48] <krammer> need help installing ProFTPD 1.2
[03:48] <danyn> caronte>join me in #ubuntu-caronte and ill guide you thru it
[03:49] <riot\hates\wifi> carlosV2: i dont see why not... i'm sure they have more than one port open
[03:49] <Psyber> Xero: are you sure it is called OSXdock?  google cannot seem to find it, nor symantic
[03:49] <Emperor886> jrib: There was no xorg.conf.blahblahblah file. =/
[03:49] <ep1> MasterShrek: E: Package libssl has no installation candidate
[03:49] <jrib> Emperor886: what was there?
[03:49] <Xero> Psyber, yes.
[03:49] <carlosV2> riot\hates\wifi, thanks, i use X-Chat. do you know how can i do it?
[03:49] <Rageon> ty u all for answering my stupid question, rest assured i never ask them twice and if anyone asks the same question i can answer it so u dont have to :)
[03:49] <Rageon> questions*
[03:49] <underwatercow> nomasteryoda: I ran wineprefixcreate and it fixed my problem ;-D
[03:49] <pj1976> HI, I'm using xgl and have I don't believe I have hardware acceleration.  I can't run fgl_glxgears How can I check?
[03:49] <MasterShrek> ep1, try libssl0.9.8
[03:50] <Emperor886> X, Xserver, xorg.conf, display-session-options, and some other stuff, but nothing to do with the .conf file.
[03:50] <ep1> MasterShrek: it says already have newest version uggh
[03:50] <riot\hates\wifi> carlosV2: it's been so long since i've used xchat, and i'm using win right now so i cant check. uhmmm maybe /server irc.freenode.net <port>
[03:50] <sasa> MasterShrek: I reinstalled those two packages and it worked!!
[03:51] <sasa> you are brilliant!
[03:51] <sasa> wow
[03:51] <sasa> I mean
[03:51] <MasterShrek> :)
[03:51] <sasa> that is gerat
[03:51] <Xero> http://www.hackitlinux.com/50226711/mac_os_x_dock_for_linux.php
[03:51] <tarelerulz> Is  azureus really picky or all  bit torrents need both tcp and udp to work ?  In the past it has not been problem under portforwdeing my router had both working at the same time ,but it dead on me
[03:51] <riot\hates\wifi> i should really start labeling CDs :o
[03:51] <carlosV2> uoooo, realy thanks, riot\hates\wifi. i will test it the next day. thanks again
[03:51] <Emperor886> jrib: X, Xserver, xorg.conf, display-session-options, and some other stuff, but nothing to do with the .conf file.
[03:51] <MasterShrek> ep1, try this: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 /usr/libssl.so.0.9.6
[03:52] <nomasteryoda> underwatercow, nice one .. will have to remember that
[03:52] <MasterShrek> ep1, its kinda a hack, but there probably isnt much of a difference from 0.9.6 to 0.9.8 so itll prolly work
[03:52] <Rageon> is this universe/multiverse thing in Synaptic PM?
[03:52] <carlosV2> i return to mi first cuestion. somebody knows how to config a Fast IRDA port?
[03:52] <Xero> Psyber http://www.hackitlinux.com/50226711/mac_os_x_dock_for_linux.php

[03:53] <IdleOne> !universe | Rageon
[03:53] <jrib> Emperor886: I don't know then.  You'll have to try reading the documentation for the nvidia driver or consult google to see where it creates the backup.  Better approach: just make a new one with 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[03:53] <ubotu> Rageon: 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

[03:53] <Rageon> thx dude

[03:56] <Ownatik> same for hda .. but I know its sda
[03:56] <jrib> Emperor886: not quite, it will ask you for the driver you want to use
[03:56] <MasterShrek> Ownatik, try sudo grub-install /dev/sda1 (assuming sda1 is your ubuntu root partition)
[03:56] <Emperor886> I don't know the driver I want to use though, I've only been using Linux for a month.
[03:57] <Rageon> so basically u dont wanna download stuff from multiverse unless u cant help it?
[03:57] <Emperor886> jrib: I don't know the driver I want to use though, I've only been using Linux for a month.**
[03:57] <Ownatik> same message, even if I --recheck
[03:57] <riot\hates\wifi> awesome. i seem to have overwritten my feisty cd, and deleted the iso <head/desk>
[03:57] <MasterShrek> Rageon, some things in multivers are a bit unstable, but i generally dont run into many problems, plus it opens lots and lots of extra pacakges

[03:58] <MasterShrek> yes Rageon its all free
[03:58] <alecwh> nickrud, OK, I'll try that out.
[03:58] <Rageon> cool!
[03:58] <mboldisc> alecwh: I suggest using a plain filesystem with directories. :)
[03:58] <MasterShrek> Ownatik, try sudo cfdisk /dev/sda and make sure sda1 is your ubuntu partition

[04:01] <HealthyElijah> i wish there was a command for ignoring all bots
[04:01] <MasterShrek> Ownatik, try typing 'mount' to see if something is mounted at /boot
[04:01] <mboldisc> alecwh: I'll probably get bashed for saying this, but I use igoogle notebooks for small notes/tasks.
[04:01] <nickrud> HealthyElijah: so anyway, what's the issue.

[04:03] <riot\hates\wifi> carlosV2  > i dont want to compile anything. at the moment.
 compile from source? <- then, why this?
[04:03] <riot\hates\wifi> tzadik: if the package isnt available in the repos, you're going to need to build (compile) it yourself
[04:04] <carlosV2> ok

[04:05] <IdleOne> tzadik: second link returned on google search
[04:05] <Ownatik> MasterShrek: I get this: Could not find device for //boot: Not found or not a block device.
[04:05] <h1st0> tzadik: check getdeb.net if not compile yourself and use checkinstall instead of make install it will create a deb for you for easy removal
[04:06] <nickrud> tzadik: probably to volatile and alpha for packaging to be worthwhile
[04:06] <ep1> MasterShrek: It depends on an old version of libssl0.9.6 that doesnt exist, so I guess this isnt working for me
[04:06] <MasterShrek> Ownatik, try sudo grub-install (hd0,3)

[04:08] <jacob> what does modprobe ndiswrapper do?
[04:08] <riot\hates\wifi> a fork ... if a project splits
[04:09] <tico1> some body can help me to open a RAR file. I already installed everything but it dosen't work. i have the option when i clic using the right button but nothing happens.
[04:09] <Rageon> ahh ic, tym :)
[04:09] <jacob> what does modprobe ndiswrapper do?
[04:09] <MasterShrek> Ownatik, are you sure sda4 isnt your swap partition? typing mount will show for sure whats mounted at /

[04:09] <riot\hates\wifi> i just feel the need to share that there is nothing better than being able to dl a linux iso in 15 minutes. i remember the good old days when this took 52 hours. :D

[04:15] <macd> !hi | Ryouga_Hibiki
[04:15] <ubotu> Ryouga_Hibiki: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:15] <JiBEsH> Hi, I got a trouble since the last swiftfox update, there's an "error while loading shared libraries: libXcomposite.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory".
[04:15] <pj1976> thanks mac, I'm using the restriced driver now.  Can I just look for and install an fglrx driver?
[04:15] <macd> yep, the restricted driver also does XGL (I think)
[04:15] <MasterShrek> JiBEsH, try reinstalling it
[04:15] <Ryouga_Hibiki> I just installed ubuntu a few moments ago its amazing
[04:15] <KurtKraut> rustalot: use lsof -i and grep to identify what program is sending this data
[04:15] <MasterShrek> Ryouga_Hibiki, youll learn to hate it, then youll learn to love it :P
[04:15] <KurtKraut> Ryouga_Hibiki: oh, there is a lot to be amazed yet. Don't rush :P
[04:15] <macd> JiBEsH, we dont really support swiftfox here, as its not an official piece of software from ubuntu repos.
[04:15] <heartsblood> KurtKraut: I like it, thanks for the advice.
[04:15] <patbam> hi, can anyone suggest a way that i can preview all the fonts on my system?
[04:15] <IdleOne> JiBEsH: sudo apt-get install libxcomposite-dev
[04:15] <pj1976> mac: Yeah it does, but for me it's just doing it in software.   No direct rendering
[04:16] <MasterShrek> patbam, system > preferences > font
[04:16] <macd> patbam, Im pretty sure system --prefs --fonts will show you all of them
[04:16] <JiBEsH> IdleOne: I did
[04:16] <hbcm> hey macd
[04:16] <robink> I need to install Ubuntu from a textmode installer running on a VGA console (framebuffer might work if it used a resolution that my monitor supported)
[04:16] <macd> hi, hbcm
[04:16] <macd> robink, you need the alternate install cd in that case.
[04:16] <IdleOne> JiBEsH: best I can say is try the swiftfox forums
[04:16] <patbam> macd MasterShrek, but you can only view one at a time, and it's a fiddly dropdown
[04:16] <PvtRyan> How do I get Ubuntu to stop booting into X?
[04:16] <pj1976> and I get an error XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0", do you know what that is?
[04:16] <JiBEsH> IdleOne: ok thanks.
[04:17] <heartsblood> now can anybody recomend an app (if there is a legal one) that can ping a router from different locations in the world (ping locations limited to the us would be ok as well)
[04:17] <MasterShrek> patbam, try in openoffice or something, maybe its easier
[04:17] <robink> macd: Alternate install CD uses framebuffer
[04:17] <gizmo21187> any one use ISP Config control panel
[04:17] <hbcm> try a session pvtryan
[04:17] <KurtKraut> gizmo21187: try #ubuntu-server
[04:17] <hbcm> at the login screen
[04:17] <nickrud> patbam: waterfall is a pretty nice/simple font viewer
[04:17] <MasterShrek> heartsblood, if you can use the ping command to do this, you could just write a script for it
[04:17] <macd> PvtRyan, by removing the startup script link for x11-common, and/or GDM
[04:17] <pj1976> Pvt-you can find in the login screen
[04:17] <gizmo21187> thanx
[04:17] <hbcm> popular ?
[04:18] <macd> robink, the alt install cd has a console curses based installer, I dont think that is framebuffer.
[04:18] <PvtRyan> thanks
[04:18] <hbcm> ubotu: most popular question please
[04:18] <robink> macd: The initrd (or squashfs image, not sure) tries to pop the display into framebuffer before the installer can run.
[04:18] <robink> macd: Framebuffer is largely a kernel thing.

[04:18] <patbam> nickrud: thanks, i'll check it out

[04:19] <hbcm> try pm ing the bot
[04:19] <robink> macd: There is no kernel option to disable the framebuffer so that no userspace app can enable it.
[04:19] <hbcm> lol

[04:37] <trogdor> Javid: I mean they got blurring burning smudging juggling sizzling constrating rotating blah blah blah blah still no clue what those buttons do
[04:38] <Javid> way to learn is play with it till you know it
[04:38] <Javid> what I did. :p
[04:38] <nickrud> trogdor: for simple cropping, color balance and the like, gthumb works really well & is simple
[04:38] <IdleOne> krammer: Applications>Sounds>...
[04:38] <trogdor> Madpilot: yeah I've read a few but where should I start?
[04:38] <trogdor> nickrud: ooh thx
[04:38] <krammer> lol now i feel dumb
[04:38] <tico1> i still have problems with RAR files. do someone know how to open it
[04:39] <trogdor> ticol: apt-get install rar 7z
[04:39] <Madpilot> trogdor, personally, I always learn best when I find or invent a project for myself. Rather than just noodling around, I try and re-create an image I found, or something similar...
[04:39] <trogdor> ticol: then just right click it
[04:39] <riot\hates\wifi> Mr: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy , #ubuntu-effects for desktop effects/compiz/etc ...  #kubuntu, #xubuntu and the #ubuntu-<language>s are thoe only ones i know of
[04:39] <tico1> tragdor : thanks
[04:39] <IdleOne> krammer: dont! you will get the hang of it
[04:39] <riot\hates\wifi> 7z is soooo grating, free or not  D:
[04:39] <KurtKraut> Mr: http://searchirc.com/search.php?F=partial&I=ubuntu&T=chan&N=59&M=min&C=1&PER=20&D=color&Submit=+Go+
[04:39] <Mr> ok, would you give me a hand riot?
[04:39] <trogdor> Madpilot: I once started to use some photo editing stuff before I got annoyed with icons that have white background makes my desktop look crappy
[04:40] <krammer> yea thanks, but I did go through adm & pref
[04:40] <krammer> have fun
[04:40] <tico1> tragdor : look , Package rar is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[04:40] <tico1> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[04:40] <tico1> is only available from another source
[04:40] <tico1> E: Package rar has no installation candidate
[04:40] <riot\hates\wifi> Mr: i'll try but it depends on what ya need a hand with
[04:40] <trogdor> ticol: it is there use synaptic to find it
[04:40] <trogdor> ticol: do apt-get upgrade and make sure that comp has internet setup right
[04:41] <Mr> I would like to install this game i have, and it is linux, the setup file on the cd is /media/cdrom0/linux-installer.sh how do i get it to go in terminal?
[04:41] <tico1> tragdor: everything is fine. i try using the winrar file and now i havve the option when i use right clic
[04:41] <Mr> I mean how do i open it or run it?
[04:41] <Javid> mr: sh /path/to/file.sh
[04:42] <tico1> tragdor: but nothing happens

[04:43] <Mr> riot do i type in terminal something like sudo get-install /media/cdrom0/linux-installer.sh ?
[04:43] <trogdor> Mr: pull up terminal and cd /media/cdrom0/ then ./linux-installer.sh
[04:43] <riot\hates\wifi> Mr: do what javid said
[04:43] <riot\hates\wifi> or what trogdor said. both work
[04:43] <Mr> ok

[04:44] <seth_m> I have Feisty installed on a system with a Core2Duo. I noticed some performance drop recently. Investigating a bit, I found that HAL Device Manager and Gnome System Monitor listed one CPU, where they used to list two (I'm certain in the latter case.)  Can someone help me verify whether there is a problem and fix it?
[04:44] <tico1> trogor: any idea?
[04:44] <seth_m> My uneducated speculation is that something happened at some point messing with getting the nVidia proprietary drivers to work right.
[04:44] <trogdor> Mr: no that won't work.. apt-get grabs basic applications from ubuntu repositories but its a separate program you have yourself that isn't prepackaged
[04:45] <KurtKraut> seth_m: does cat /proc/cpuinfo still showing 2 cores ?
[04:45] <Mr> ok i am ignorant of linux lingo
[04:45] <kevinO> when gutsy come out, is it going to include a newer version of gnome?
[04:45] <SomaFM> does anyone know of any archiving methods built in other than TAR?
[04:45] <Rageon> if ubuntu doesnt set a password for / doesnt that mean anyone could just login with no password?
[04:45] <KurtKraut> SomaFM: yes, gnome 2.20
[04:45] <sayers> Rageon, no...
[04:45] <trogdor> riot: that sh <path> thing usually gets really buggy with all sorts of hidden bash settings crap I'd not like to ever deal with
[04:46] <SomaFM> kurtkraut, whats the basic command? never used it
[04:46] <riot\hates\wifi> Rageon: no.
[04:46] <Rageon> why not?
[04:46] <hhp22> Does anyone know if there's a specific channel for help in ubuntu with dualhead?
[04:46] <hhp22> (Multiple Monitors)
[04:46] <seth_m> KurtKraut: Doesn't look like it. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38419/
[04:46] <KurtKraut> SomaFM: the basic command for what ?
[04:46] <trogdor> Rageon: because its not marked as being something you can log into...
[04:46] <riot\hates\wifi> it's not so much that there's no password, as it is the account is locked.
[04:47] <Rageon> ic see.. so the ONLY thing that can access / is sudo correct?
[04:47] <KurtKraut> seth_m: isn't that displayed twice ?
[04:47] <trogdor> Rageon: and any root level app that has such privileges like grub recovery console
[04:47] <seth_m> KurtKraut: Nope.
[04:47] <trogdor> Rageon: you can turn that off in menu.lst though
[04:47] <SomaFM> kurtkraut: sorry let me rephrase the question, is there another cli method other than TAR to archive/compress files into 1 file
[04:48] <seth_m> KurtKraut: That was the whole file.
[04:48] <KurtKraut> seth_m: could you show it to me as a screenshot ?
[04:48] <arrummzen> How hard is it to get the source code for packages an Ubuntu installation has?
[04:48] <Rageon> theres nothing id download from repositories that would be a root level app tho correct?
[04:48] <riot\hates\wifi> woo. my disc is burned. i'm going to go beat some sense into my wireless adapter, and i'll be back from feisty, on my WPA2 protected network.  ::something tells me that i have just set myself up for more defeat, but whatever::
[04:49] <KurtKraut> SomaFM: yes, you can do it by selecting the files in nautilus and doing a right click over then and choosing CREATE PACKAGE.
[04:49] <hhp22> :D
[04:49] <IdleOne> Rageon: there are but omnly root level user can access
[04:49] <Mr> eek i can't get it to open?
[04:49] <riot\hates\wifi> arrummzen - cant you download the source for those packages via apt?
[04:49] <Rageon> mmk
[04:49] <juan> is it possible to get fsck to run on shutdown not boot
[04:49] <arrummzen> riot\hates\wifi, that is my question =P. Assuming the package is open source, could I just use apt-get or something to grab the source for it?
[04:50] <SomaFM> kurtkraut, im looking for a command that can be used via the command line, such as tar can
[04:50] <IdleOne> Rageon: the majority of apps that a normal user would want to use on ubuntu dont require root/sudo privs
[04:50] <badraa> hello
[04:50] <AshDragonSca> Hi, can anyone help me with a ndiswrapper issue?
[04:50] <KurtKraut> SomaFM: what is the problem with tar ?
[04:50] <badraa> hello
[04:50] <disposition> would anyone have any idea how after a fresh install, 16.2 gigs would be maxed on my primary partition?
[04:50] <badraa> hello
[04:50] <badraa> hello
[04:50] <Rageon> ok kool
[04:50] <hhp22> IdleOne: In comparison, the majority of simple user actions on Windows Vista require elevated priveleges :P
[04:50] <riot\hates\wifi> arrummzen  ... i believe there's a source option. i can't tell you what the specific format is as i'm under win xp but it might be as simple as apt-get source <package> or. eh. <shrug>
[04:50] <disposition> i mounted a partition to /media/disponia and it's saying that it's on my primary partition
[04:51] <IdleOne> hhp22: yeah funny how that works
[04:51] <hhp22> Hello badree :P
[04:51] <hhp22> *badraa
[04:51] <arrummzen> riot\hates\wifi, alright.
[04:51] <Rageon> i just downloaded some stuff from Synaptic PM -- how do i access them? the ones i installed via Add new software appeared in my applications menu
[04:51] <SomaFM> kurtkraut, i never said there was a problem with tar. im just wondering if there is an alternative build into ubuntu that is similar to TAR
[04:51] <badraa> tnx
[04:51] <IdleOne> Rageon: synaptic downloads and installs. what did you install?
[04:52] <KurtKraut> SomaFM: yes, there are many, usually envolving compression like gzip
[04:52] <seth_m> KurtKraut: The pastebin doesn't appear to take images? Can I email you it?
[04:52] <badraa> i cant see anyone?

[04:52] <badraa> from list
[04:52] <pike_> Rageon: terminal apps wont show up in panel with icons usually
[04:52] <pike_> Rageon: word of advise though.. use irssi not bitchx
[04:52] <badraa> i'm beginer of Ubuntu
[04:53] <IdleOne> Rageon: bitch-x irssi are both terminal apps. so  type BitchX to start bitchx and irssi to start irssi

[04:57] <MrZim> hi, is xchat the most powerfull irc-client for ubuntu? i`m just using it for the time and cant even see a userlist from the channel...thx!
[04:57] <guhhh> ive mounted my windows partition(ntfs) but i can read/execute the files... i need ntfs-3g?
[04:57] <badraa> are you here?
[04:58] <badraa> yes
[04:58] <badraa> it's exe file
[04:58] <IdleOne> MrZim: you need to drag the userlist open. it is on the right side
[04:58] <Madpilot> badraa, exe files do not work on Linux. Not without lots of work, anyway.
[04:59] <pike_> badraa: you can use windows apps without wine or some emulator. adobe does provide a linux version but there are also free pdf viewers if that is all you need
[04:59] <pike_> cant i mean
[04:59] <badraa> oh
[04:59] <Dremth> is there a way to change the ubuntu boot screen? (not grub, the one like this: http://decoding.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/boot-screen.jpg)

[04:59] <badraa> do you know ubuntu's reader?
[04:59] <nickrud> !usplash | Dremth

[05:00] <Madpilot> badraa, Ubuntu has a good PDF reader built right into it. You usually don't need Adobe's reader.
[05:00] <badraa> relly?
[05:00] <badraa> nema?
[05:00] <badraa> name?
[05:00] <MrZim> IdleOne: thanks, found it - but not on the right side, it was under the serverlist...
[05:00] <KurtKraut> badraa: evince... just try to open a PDF file you'll see it
[05:00] <badraa> ok
[05:00] <Madpilot> badraa, find a PDF, double-click on it. It'll open in the default viewer.
[05:01] <pike_> badraa: welcome to ubuntu :)
[05:01] <Psyber> lol
[05:01] <IdleOne> MrZim: are you using xchat for windows?

[05:02] <badraa> i think, linux is better xp
[05:02] <mvuelma> Psyber, me too, but after I upgraded my system, all function well
[05:03] <ruckerz> anyone have luck installing libapache2-mod-php5 on feisty?
[05:03] <ruckerz> im getting package dependency problems
[05:03] <Psyber> IdleOne, mvuelma,   On some of my windows, I cannot use the controls in the top right corner.  Was this what you guys were going through?
[05:04] <robink> macd: Thanks
[05:04] <IdleOne> Psyber: yes
[05:04] <Madpilot> ruckerz, just as a guess, there's something wrong with your sources.list. Something basic like PHP & Apache shouldn't be giving dependency issues.
[05:04] <macd> robink, glad it worked
[05:04] <mvuelma> Psyber, are you using 3d effects?
[05:05] <Psyber> mvuelma:  they are installed, but not running
[05:05] <Emperor886> I have an Nvidia graphics card and the driver keeps freezing me, anyone know how to fix this?

[05:05] <robink> macd: Haven't tried passing options yet...
[05:05] <Crav> I installed TinyXP for dual booting. I'm using GRUB, but it seems that XP is automatically giving its partition the boot flag. everytime i boot xp, it restarts to xp, when i boot ubuntu, it restarts to GRUB. anyone know what to do?
[05:05] <badraa> gues
[05:05] <MasterShrek> Emperor886, how did you install the driver?
[05:05] <badraa> i'm from mongolia
[05:05] <robink> macd: Installer seems to be locked up doing hardware detection
[05:05] <MasterShrek> !ask | badraa
[05:05] <ubotu> badraa: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:06] <mvuelma> Psyber, did you already test another mouse?
[05:06] <ruckerz> Madpilot: is there somewhere i can get a default sources.list?
[05:06] <badraa> my english very bad
[05:06] <macd> robink, wouldnt be the first time I've seen that
[05:06] <Schalken> how can i get flash player 9 on dapper?
[05:06] <Psyber> mvuelma: No, I don't access to another mouse right now.
[05:06] <badraa> do you know ubuntu's dictionary
[05:06] <Emperor886> MasterShrek: Frozen, brb.

[05:07] <mvuelma> Well, this behavior only occurs on the right corner?
[05:07] <Madpilot> ruckerz, http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[05:07] <MasterShrek> ruckerz, http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/ try that
[05:07] <robink> Wait, it's not doing hardware detection, it's trying to partition my drive.
[05:07] <robink> Why is it trying to partition my drive for me?
[05:07] <pike_> Schalken: you can download the files from adobe and just drop em in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins or somesuch
[05:07] <Luke> Is there a special place for compiz questions or can I ask here?

[05:08] <robink> macd: Alternate CD
[05:08] <Psyber> mvuelma:  well No  I loose all control of the window.  Cannot scroll or use the control bar.  However, if I minimize and redisplay the window using the taskbar I regain the functionality
[05:08] <IdleOne> try it again
[05:08] <macd> robink, you sure its not setting up its temporary ramdisk partitions?
[05:08] <badraa> how to download english dictionary ?
[05:09] <robink> macd: It could be, I really don't know.
[05:09] <Schalken> pike_: is there a package avaliable?
[05:09] <Madpilot> badraa, there is one by default - Applications->Accessories->Dictionary
[05:09] <robink> macd: I should let it go though, the machine still responds to pings...
[05:09] <Emperor> MasterShrek: I chose the driver (nv) when I created my xorg.conf file.
[05:09] <MasterShrek> Emperor, what kinda card are you using?
[05:09] <mvuelma> Psyber, sorry. I think I can't help you.
[05:09] <MasterShrek> !nvidia
[05:09] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:10] <pike_> Schalken: should be yes. i havent used dapper since flash9 came out though
[05:10] <Emperor> MasterShrek: Nvidia GeForce GO 6100
[05:10] <macd> robink, yeah I'd let it go for a while
[05:10] <IdleOne> !flash | Schalken
[05:10] <ubotu> Schalken: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[05:10] <robink> macd: CPU is apparently a Geode GX2 (haven't cracked the case, just looked at pictures of open cases)
[05:10] <PoofDaddy> My Alt key is not functioning. Is it disabled by default? Could I or should I enable it?
[05:10] <icus> is it possible to tell ubuntu not to expand the menu bar across two monitors when using twinview and/or designate a primary monitor?
[05:10] <Schalken> IdleOne: ah, cool
[05:11] <Psyber> mvuelma: thanks for trying
[05:11] <Emperor> MasterShrek: Thanks.
[05:11] <pike_> Schalken: dont use gnash :)
[05:11] <macd> robink, ohh yeah, thats going to take a while Id guess
[05:11] <mvuelma> Psyber: You're welcome.
[05:11] <riotkittie>  after having spent so much time wondering why i would have deleted the feisty desktop iso, it came to me. unfortunately, it did not come to me until i had DLed, burned and  attempted to install :|
[05:11] <Schalken> pike_: lol yeah
[05:11] <badraa> ubuntu have diction of english -mongolia, mongolia-english?
[05:12] <robink> macd: It's a CPU that implements all 686 instructions except for cmov.  It also support the Intel SIMD (MMX).
[05:12] <robink> macd: ...so it isn't too terrible...
[05:12] <KurtKraut> badraa: no
[05:12] <macd> robink, yeah Im pretty familiar with it
[05:12] <hhp22> Has anyone in here successfully made Dual Head in Ubuntu work?
[05:12] <badraa> KurtKraut
[05:12] <robink> macd: Oh
[05:13] <badraa> KurtKraut: ok
[05:13] <PvtRyan> Is there a posted copy of a default sorce.list somewhere for feisty?
[05:13] <vulcanius> hhp22, what is the problem your having?
[05:13] <robink> macd: I'm not.  I have a GX1 in my Soekris, but I know nothing of the GX2.
[05:13] <macd> robink, we built some linux media center extenders with gx2 base
[05:13] <macd> I think those things only use ~1watt
[05:13] <hhp22> vulcanius: I've always had problems, but now I just have a couple of questions, like can you achieve dual-head with an AGP and PCI card together.
[05:13] <robink> macd: Their power consumption is pretty low.
[05:14] <vulcanius> hhp22, yes you can
[05:14] <vulcanius> what types of cards are these?
[05:14] <badraa> KurtKraut: how to add new font?
[05:15] <hhp22> vulcanius: That's good to know. Another question, if you don't mind: Can you achieve Dualhead with two different types of cards (nVidia and ATI for example)?
[05:15] <riotkittie> PvtRyan:  http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[05:16] <badraa> KurtKraut: how to add new font?
[05:16] <vulcanius> hhp22, if the drivers want to play nice with each other i don't really see why not, but i've never attempted to mix like that
[05:17] <AshDragonSca> can anyone help me with ndixwrapper locking up my computer when I try to access it?
[05:17] <Madpilot> ubotu, fonts | badraa
[05:17] <ubotu> badraa: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[05:17] <hhp22> vulcanius: I'll try to keep them the same to avoid complications. Another question: do you know of an application that can assist me with ATI Dual-head? I know there's one for nVidia, but I don't know if there's one for ATI.
[05:18] <riotkittie> AshDragonSca: did you install from the repos or compile from source?
[05:18] <krammer> I have booted up and now i have a black screen with gnome running need help
[05:18] <vulcanius> hhp22, check out http://www.darkartistry.com/content/view/74/41/ for ATI dual heading
[05:18] <jamesh> are there any docs on configuring dual monitor support through the xorg.conf file? (I was using radeon MergedFB prior to Gutsy, but this doesn't seem to work anymore)

[05:19] <zemisolsol> everyonw
[05:19] <krammer> i was downloading a file then this happen so i tried rebooting  and stilll the same
[05:19] <vulcanius> hhp22, personally i have dual PCI-E nvidias. they were the cheapest cards i could find with 256MB memory and dual DVI. they work great
[05:19] <jamesh> I can configure it at runtime with xrandr, but I'd prefer to have it set up in dual monitor mode at startup
[05:19] <hhp22> vulcanius: Thank you so much. :) I can never get anyone in this channel to help me with dual-head :P
[05:19] <krammer> it is little circle of gnome running with all black screen
[05:19] <vulcanius> np
[05:19] <Emperor> MasterShrek: Whilst trying to install this new driver, I have gotten myself into a pickle.  When I try to install it it says "You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before installing." How can I install and get rid of X?
[05:19] <hhp22> vulcanius: I'm working with ancient hardware, so I don't really have the capability of linearity right now. :P How I wish.
[05:20] <vulcanius> ah, lol
[05:20] <robink> Can I choose one language for installation and then change the language to install later on in the installation process?
[05:20] <firebird619> Could someone help me? I cannot log in except for recovery console root. When I try to login otherwise, it says it couldn't write to authorization file due to either no disk space or unable to open for writing. I have 51 GB disk space free on /home, but / is 100% full, how do I reduce it
[05:20] <firebird619> How do I reduce /'s size to solve this problem?
[05:20] <krammer> Idleone: can you help me?
[05:20] <MasterShrek> Emperor, ctrl+alt+f1, then log in as user and type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[05:20] <riotkittie> sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop  .... or sudo /etc/init/gdm stop Emperor, but what driver are you trying to install?
[05:21] <krammer> i can move the cursor but still black screen
[05:21] <IdleOne> krammer: not certain I can. dont see how a download would make your screen go black
[05:21] <krammer> virus?
[05:21] <IdleOne> krammer: nope
[05:21] <Emperor> MasterShrek: Thank you. :)
[05:21] <Schalken> how can i update a package from the command line?
[05:21] <XdorotaX> Virus on ubuntu. XD
[05:21] <vulcanius> Schalken, sudo apt-get
[05:22] <krammer> i tired rebooting 3 times
[05:22] <riotkittie> yay 6 minutes then i can burn and reboot and retry this song and dance
[05:22] <[Mau_Restor] > Virus on ubuntu. XD lol
[05:22] <riotkittie> i should stop being  a weenie and just do it in my current feisty install but 1GB of downloads later, i've come too far for that
[05:23] <vulcanius> firebird619, still here?
[05:23] <firebird619> vulcanius: yes
[05:23] <robink> Also, macd, your boot options had no effect.
[05:23] <riotkittie> what exactly were you downloading?
[05:23] <riotkittie> and have you tried an fsck?
[05:23] <vulcanius> firebird619, you can use your ubuntu install cd or another livecd to log in and modify your filesystem sizes
[05:23] <krammer> .doc
[05:23] <Emperor> riotkittie: A newer Nvidia one.
[05:24] <Mr1> Hows it goin everybody?
[05:24] <riotkittie> Emperor: ah
[05:24] <macd> robink, really? thats very odd
[05:24] <vulcanius> firebird619, if this is a fairly new install and you can reinstall i highly recommend that you create a separate filesystem for /boot
[05:24] <mohamed_> hello all, i installed vdr and i control it using xine with vdr-sxfe, how can i create session for vdr that can start automaticly instead of gnome ?
[05:24] <riotkittie> nooo i'm only downloading at 950kBs :O
[05:24] <firebird619> vulcanius: What caused the / partition to all of a sudden get full, it's been working file.
[05:24] <avt3kk> file explorer
[05:24] <firebird619> vulcanius: I do have a separate partition for /boot
[05:24] <avt3kk> in dapper
[05:24] <avt3kk> from term
[05:25] <Mr1> Firebird: I had the same problem
[05:25] <Ashfire908> how do i save the iptables
[05:25] <buzz-cp> can anyone help with sporadic USB flash drive recognition?
[05:25] <vulcanius> firebird619, it could have been a process that was writing and forked like crazy
[05:25] <wladston> I was later here asking for help on an issue. Checked that it was reported to be working on gusty, so I'd like to  try t upgrade to get my system working again.  I have a server without a video card, so I can't use update-manager. Can anyone tell me how to update to gusty via command-line ?
[05:25] <IdleOne> krammer: try explaining your issue again giving as much detail as possible
[05:25] <firebird619> Mr1: What did you have to do to solve the problem?
[05:25] <riotkittie> firebird619: logs? files not cleaned from apt?  how much space did you have on it last time you checked, prior to this issue?
[05:25] <vulcanius> wladston, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:25] <krammer> in a middle of a download my computer went to a black screen with gnome running i can move the cursor but thats it

[05:26] <hhp22> krammer: That's a screensaver freezing issue
[05:26] <firebird619> vulcanius: So is the only way to fix the problem resize the partition, if so, which one, / or /boot?
[05:26] <Mr1> To be honest, I never did. I reformatted
[05:26] <buzz-cp> ^^ my USB drive is not listed in lsusb
[05:26] <hhp22> I get that too :P

[05:27] <avt3kk> how to I pull up the file explorer in term???
[05:27] <firebird619> riotkittie: I hadn't checked at all until now when I started having the problem. Bad practice on my part. Can I delete logs and clean apt to get some space back?
[05:27] <brontos> Hi All! Anyone know how to stop system messages from displaying in the terminal?
[05:27] <vulcanius> doh
[05:27] <Flannel> wladston: Or at least, that was the way from edgy to feisty.  You should ask in #ubuntu+1, they'll know for sure.
[05:27] <vulcanius> wladston, you'll need to add the gutsy repos first

[05:27] <h08817> riotkittie, what is a good rate?
[05:27] <wladston> thanks, Flannel, vulcanius will try suggestions now

[05:28] <orionr> does anyone know where evolution mail stores all the email?
[05:28] <h08817> riotkittie, i tried two used cd-rw and even got a fresh download of fiesty fawn and the hashes do match

[05:28] <brontos_> Hi all! Anyone know how to stop system messages from displaying in the terminal?
[05:28] <riotkittie> h08817: you may want to go down to the lowest speed your burner will write at .. or close to it
[05:28] <buzz-cp> PS my USB drive mounted and showed up yesterday.  Not the day before.  I don't understand why it is sporadic?
[05:29] <mohamed_> how i can create session for vdr that can be the default session without login?
[05:29] <h08817> riotkittie, what does burning at a slower speed really do?
[05:29] <avt3kk> I got zinc installed :P
[05:29] <IdleOne> Psyber: calendar.google.com
[05:29] <avt3kk> yahoo chat :P
[05:29] <vulcanius> wladston, i believe you need to install and use "update-manager -d" but like Flannel said, i'd check in #ubuntu+1
[05:29] <Psyber> IdleOne:  I was under the impression I could not modify my google calendar with thunderbird
[05:30] <riotkittie> h08817: it will potentially eliminate -or at least decrease- errors in the burn process for some people
[05:30] <IdleOne> Psyber: I dont know if you can.
[05:30] <h08817> riotkittie, ok thanks and i'll use a fresh cd
[05:30] <vulcanius> firebird619, yes, to answer your question you can remove logs and such to clear up space
[05:30] <buzz-cp> anyone, any ideas why USB Flash Drive isn't mounting?
[05:30] <wladston> vulcanius, Flannel : I already have update-manager core. But update-manager reports as a non-installed program :(
[05:30] <krammer> downside of ubuntu if i can figure it out then i have to reinstall
[05:30] <riotkittie> firebird619: oooooooh sorry, i did not mean to not answer you
[05:30] <Armor_Azrael> Psyber: i just use Alt-F2
[05:31] <riotkittie> ok. i have the alt install CD. here we go again.  <prays>
[05:31] <badraa> my default language english, i can add other language but how to speach by this language on ubuntu's word?
[05:32] <Rageon> anyone recommend a program where i can scan the network from say 192.168.0.1 to .254 too see whats connected on the network?
[05:32] <firebird619> riotkittie: That is OK. I was patiently waiting for a response from you or anyone else who can offer advice. The wonderful thing about Ubuntu is this channel to get help. I know someone will answer me at sometime.
[05:32] <MasterShrek> Rageon, nmapfe
[05:32] <Flannel> wladston: do-release-upgrade, not update-manager.  And, yeah, for Gutsy (since its still development), youll need to pass a flag.  I don't know which one.  man page should tell you
[05:32] <krammer> buzz is there a password for the usb?
[05:32] <firebird619> vulcanius: Where are the logs located that I can safely delete?
[05:32] <Rageon> cheers will check it out
[05:32] <sirjoebob> hey all. quick question. is there a way for me to make open office ignore my system theme?
[05:33] <eatupmartha> Hey guys... apologies in advance for my noobishness...  I would like some advice on how to troubleshoot the following problems (even if that is just directions to which part of a FAQ to read); 1st. I had Beryl running great and then I tried installing Kiba Dock unsuccessfully and it resulted in my Beryl not working anymore... I un-enabled desktop effects and now It wont enable again, no idea how to undo any damage I might of 
[05:33] <firebird619> I just tried to run apt-get autoclean and it returned E: Unable to write mmap - msync (28 No space left on device)
[05:33] <Rageon> im trying to install using APT-get .. it says E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)

[05:34] <alexbobp> I have a complex directory tree with a bunch of duplicate songs, as mp3s and as oggs.  Is there a tool to split it into two trees, one with the mp3s and one with the oggs?
[05:34] <badraa> KurtKraut: my default language english, i can add other language but how to speach by this language on ubuntu's word?
[05:34] <buzz-cp> krammer: Are you asking if the flash drive requires a flash drive?  if so, no.
[05:34] <Rageon> do i need to do sudo apt-get ?
[05:34] <vulcanius> firebird619, if you do "df" what shows up as being 100% used?
[05:34] <vulcanius> Rageon, yes
[05:34] <sirjoebob> anyone know how to override my system theme so open office displays normally
[05:34] <sirjoebob> ?
[05:35] <firebird619> vulcanius: the / partition
[05:35] <ines> chanos
[05:35] <riotkittie> alexbobp: how many subdirectories?
[05:35] <krammer> my experience was i had a password for my usb and didnt mount then i removed the password and all good
[05:35] <vulcanius> firebird619, did you use the default partition layout when installing?
[05:35] <firebird619> vulcanius: No, I created separate partitions for /, /boot, and /home
[05:36] <buzz-cp> krammer, removed the password from the USB Flash Drive?  Or are you talking about some password for the USB port?  I'm confused.
[05:36] <krammer> I need help bad with my laptop
[05:36] <hellion0[laptop] > when all else fails, mount an iso. *grin*
[05:36] <riotkittie> buzz-cp: for the drive
[05:36] <hellion0[laptop] > krammer: what kind of laptop?
[05:36] <krammer> the usb
[05:36] <vulcanius> firebird619, so all you have are those three partitions?
[05:36] <gregcha117> ive got gutsy running right now, and i have compiz-fusion installed but i cant seem to start the settings manager
[05:36] <krammer> the problem is i was downloading a ..doc then my screen gone black
[05:37] <riotkittie> gregcha117: #ubuntu+1   or #ubuntu-effects will be better equipped to help you. probably the former.
[05:37] <firebird619> vulcanius: Those are the ones I created myself during install.
[05:37] <riotkittie> krammer: did you try a reboot?
[05:37] <buzz-cp> riotkittie, krammer:  AFAIK, there is no password.  I plug this in on an XP machine and it comes up as a drive letter, no password, no problems.
[05:37] <krammer> yes 5 times
[05:37] <Rageon> why does fingerprinting for OS detection require root?
[05:37] <gregcha117> riotkittie: thanks
[05:37] <krammer> the gnome icon is running and i can move it around the gui thats it
[05:38] <Szego> Anyone know a different way to convert a ps to a pdf other than using ps2pdf?
[05:38] <sethk> Rageon, because it requires permissions that span more than one user
[05:38] <vulcanius> firebird619, in a terminal cd to / and run the following "sudo find / -type f -size +20000k" and let me know what comes up
[05:38] <Szego> ps2pdf seems to be giving me some errors
[05:38] <firebird619> vulcanius: Ok
[05:38] <hellion0[laptop] > ok. having trouble with a nonexistant module needed for my sound. would a different kernel help this?
[05:38] <riotkittie> buzz-cp: have you tried adding an fstab entry, given that automount is being fickle?
[05:38] <h1st0> hellion0[laptop] : Have you looked up your sound card in the wiki?
[05:38] <Rageon> so i need to login as root to use this program?
[05:39] <riotkittie> krammer: can you ALT + CTRL + F1 and access a tty?
[05:39] <buzz-cp> riotkittie, haven't done fstab, nope.
[05:39] <krammer> ok
[05:39] <h1st0> Rageon: no you use sudo
[05:39] <h1st0> !sudo | Rageon
[05:39] <ubotu> Rageon: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:39] <Rageon> i used sudo to open it
[05:39] <hellion0[laptop] > i know it requires modprobe snd-cs4236.
[05:39] <Rageon> but it opens in a GUI
[05:39] <krammer> yues
[05:39] <h1st0> Rageon: then use gksu
[05:39] <krammer> my research paper is on this machine
[05:39] <Rageon> ah k cool
[05:39] <krammer> login ??
[05:39] <Rageon> ill read that link btw
[05:39] <hellion0[laptop] > but that module isn't present on my system.
[05:39] <buzz-cp> riotkittie: I probably need some kind of nudge on fstab, haven't changed before
[05:39] <alexbobp> riotkittie: I think the maximum depth is about 4, but there are a lot of directories
[05:40] <monkeyBox> How do I run a memory test in ubuntu?  does that need to be run before the OS is booted?
[05:40] <sirjoebob> anyone know how to override my system theme so open office displays normally?
[05:40] <ndube> i would do it before boot
[05:40] <h1st0> sirjoebob: change the theme
[05:41] <riotkittie> buzz-cp > it's been so long since i've toyed with fstab that i cant think of the proper options off the top of my head. uhm.  and i'm not using linux at the moment so i can't cheat by peeking at my own. can you mount in manually?
[05:41] <Dr_willis> monkeyBox,  the grub menus normally have a memtest feature
[05:41] <buzz-cp> riotkittie: I think I've tried to mount manually to no avail.
[05:41] <hellion0[laptop] > i'm running kernel 2.6.17-10-386 under Edgy, on a thinkpad 600, if that's any help.
[05:41] <sethk> monkeyBox, yes.  the desktop cd has a memory test on the boot menu
[05:41] <sethk> monkeyBox, for x86 boxes, at least
[05:42] <sirjoebob> i dont want to change the theme hist0, i want open office to ignore it
[05:42] <buzz-cp> riotkittie: I can post my /etc/fstab
[05:42] <sethk> monkeyBox, it's an old version.  you can download the latest version as a bootable iso image from the memtest86 web site

[05:43] <IdleOne> :)
[05:43] <MasterShrek> IdleOne, open a terminal and type: sudo nmapfe
[05:43] <IdleOne> MasterShrek: yeah I know just found the error funny lol
[05:43] <sethk> monkeyBox, effective memory testing is only possible in real mode, which is why you can't do it after booting an o/s
[05:43] <eatupmartha> is there a way to like, step back through the process you have made... to a point where it was happy days for your system ?
[05:43] <h1st0> Is there something wrong with the xfce4 meta package?
[05:44] <LM1> can anyone help me....  I think I am going crazy...  I unplugged my linux drive and formatted my other one with xp. then I changed the boot priority so the linux drive was the first boot device... well now it seems my resolution is messed up  my lcd is 1280x1024 and it overhangs even if I hit auto adjust any ideas?
[05:44] <sethk> monkeyBox, (unless you consider the original version of msdos an o/s.  :)   )
[05:44] <Malachi> How can I mount a floppy image? I don't have a floppy disk drive and I need to edit a GRUB boot disk.

[05:44] <buzz-cp> ^paste
[05:44] <vulcanius> krammer, in a virtual term i'd recommend "tail"ing the Xorg log file and looking for any errors or warnings
[05:44] <sethk> LM1, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:44] <LM1> thanks
[05:44] <sethk> LM1, or xorg-xserver, I can never remember which  :)

[05:45] <hellion0[laptop] > xoRock: did you try asking the screenshot's poster what program/effect it was?
[05:46] <vulcanius> buzz-cp, what is the problem you're having?
[05:46] <krammer> command not found
[05:46] <xoRock> hellion0[laptop] , nope, its somethng like widget that shows your computer info, like cpu/ram/freespace etc, but in transparent
[05:46] <hellion0[laptop] > hm.
[05:47] <hellion0[laptop] > it's not gkrellm with a transparent skin?
[05:47] <vulcanius> krammer, "tail" wasn't found?
[05:47] <hellion0[laptop] > because that's something i've tried before on old linux systems of mine for that sort of effect.
[05:47] <buzz-cp> vulcanius, when I insert my USB Flash drive, it does not automount.  Yesterday, however, it DID.  The day before it DIDN'T :)   Someone suggesting adding to fstab, but I don't know what text to add.
[05:47] <firebird619> vulcanius: There is 10 lines it returned from that command, I probably shouldn't paste them here then should I.
[05:47] <xoRock> hellion0[laptop] , i dunno ^^; what is it called? gkrellm?
[05:47] <hellion0[laptop] > gkrellm.
[05:48] <xoRock> hellion0[laptop] , ok thx, ill look for it
[05:48] <vulcanius> firebird619, are any of them log files firebird619?

[06:12] <krammer> i guess i ll reinstall
[06:12] <IT> Will the drivers work in fiesty
[06:12] <IT> ?
[06:12] <krammer> what ever this is it is still running
[06:12] <Jewfro-Macabbi> davubuntu, did you try "aptitude search dbus-x11"?
[06:12] <Mr1>  vulcanius: as far as what hardware?
[06:12] <nortcele> How to make an application start on logon?
[06:12] <albert__>  
[06:13] <HealthyElijah> i just installed CF in feisty and it works nicely, im a noob
[06:13] <parsek_77> Jewfro-Macabbi: shouldn't it find the dependency? it says it is not installable
[06:13] <zarcoder> nortcele,search to init in google
[06:13] <davubuntu> Jewfro-Macabbi: no I didn't. I don't know that command. I just tried and nothing was returned
[06:13] <Jewfro-Macabbi> parsek_77, what are you trying to do?
[06:13] <parsek_77> install compizfusion on kubuntu
[06:13] <Jewfro-Macabbi> davubuntu, useful command - try google?
[06:14] <vulcanius> Mr1, well i guess let me first ask what is it you find slow?
[06:14] <eatupmartha> nortcele - add it as a new startup program in preferences/sessions
[06:14] <HealthyElijah> parsek_77:  this may be helpful http://forlong.blogage.de/article/2007/8/26/The-best-way-to-install-Compiz-Fusion-on-Ubuntu-Feisty
[06:14] <davubuntu> Jewfro-Macabbi: done that already. That's why I'm here
[06:14] <HealthyElijah> dunno what kubuntu really is though
[06:14] <Jewfro-Macabbi> parsek_77, from where? source? apt-get?
[06:14] <Jimmi_jones> any help on getting a partition mounted under an existing directory?
[06:14] <heartsblood> Anybody here use vlc?
[06:14] <bruenig> !anybody | heartsblood
[06:14] <ubotu> heartsblood: 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?
[06:14] <parsek_77> Jewfro-Macabbi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion   I looked here
[06:15] <heartsblood> ?
[06:15] <chodianoronaldo> heartsblood
[06:15] <chodianoronaldo> soz, read that as vnc, not vlc
[06:15] <chodianoronaldo> ##
[06:15] <chodianoronaldo> anyone here familiar with hosting gameservers on ubuntu?
[06:15] <HealthyElijah> parsek_77: Check  this out for sure --> http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=3679
[06:15] <Jack3> is there a floppy that lets you boot from DVD
[06:15] <Jack3> i dont think my comp normally lets me
[06:15] <Jewfro-Macabbi> davubuntu, sorry, best help I can offer...
[06:15] <eatupmartha> how do I remove multiple instances of programs in my desktop toolbar?
[06:16] <HealthyElijah> Noob question here --> Are KDE and Gnome teh main 2 competitors?
[06:16] <Jewfro-Macabbi> parsek_77, what step are you stuck at from the instructions on the page you sent?
[06:16] <HealthyElijah> Majority
[06:16] <vulcanius> HealthyElijah, yes
[06:16] <heartsblood> I'm trying to track a discrepancy between oss and direct alsa output.  it seems the default install option is to use oss however the sound cracks horribly.
[06:16] <CineScope> Jimmi_jones: right-click on the drive and select the volumes tab, expand the settings portion, type in a mount point
[06:16] <HealthyElijah> vulcanius: And I suppose the argument is subjective and there is no right or wrong?
[06:17] <CineScope> Jimmi_jones: looks like that might work, haven't had to do that yet tho
[06:17] <heartsblood> I can't seem reproduce the problem in any of my other media players
[06:17] <parsek_77> Jewfro-Macabbi: sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-kde
[06:17] <vulcanius> HealthyElijah, i suppose it's generally frowned upon to discuss it because it's been beaten bloody but essentially the two have different views of what a desktop should be
[06:17] <heartsblood> the discrepancy being in vlc only obviously.
[06:17] <HealthyElijah> Well for noobs it is helpful
[06:18] <HealthyElijah> So they are both good then
[06:18] <Jewfro-Macabbi> parsek_77, you completed all the previious steps as indicated? added repositories and all?
[06:18] <Jimmi_jones> will try. I copied a bunch of data out of a directory under / and onto a larger drive and now want to mount the partition where the data was, will try what you suggested though, brb
[06:18] <HealthyElijah> i will stick with ubuntu/gnome for my virginity period then
[06:18] <parsek_77> Jewfro-Macabbi: yes
[06:18] <krammer> what can the recovering mode do to help me with a the problem?
[06:19] <firebird619> vulcanius: Are you there?
[06:19] <vulcanius> HealthyElijah, KDE is usually considered the pretty one but takes up more space. gnome tries to keep it simple and sweet, restricting some stuff.
[06:19] <Jewfro-Macabbi> parsek_77, what's the dependency it says you are missing?
[06:19] <Jimmi_jones> CineScope: what app am I right clicking on the drive in? I used CL for the copying.
[06:19] <vulcanius> HealthyElijah, but dont forget about the competition. check out others like XFCE
[06:20] <vulcanius> firebird619, yup
[06:20] <parsek_77> Jewfro-Macabbi: compiz-kde: Depends: libcompizconfig-backend-kconfig
[06:20] <parsek_77> but it is not installable
[06:20] <parsek_77> E: Broken packages
[06:20] <firebird619> vulcanius: Ok, I am in filelight right now looking at the / partition. What signifies the most space used. Does it go by color or how far out the part of the chart extends or what?
[06:21] <javier> ???
[06:21] <jetscreamer> !info xdiskusage
[06:21] <ubotu> xdiskusage: Displays a graphic of your disk usage with du. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.48-7 (feisty), package size 25 kB, installed size 100 kB
[06:22] <javier> ..
[06:22] <HealthyElijah> so kubuntu just has kde on it then
[06:22] <jetscreamer> easy enough to use
[06:22] <HealthyElijah> my graphics card is old, im not messin with it
[06:22] <javier> me aburren
[06:22] <peanutb> basically, KDE with K programs
[06:22] <javier> im from argentina
[06:22] <HealthyElijah> k programs?
[06:22] <jetscreamer> you can turn down the eye candy
[06:22] <jetscreamer> kde progs
[06:22] <vulcanius> firebird619, essentially this is your filetree wrapped around a circle
[06:23] <HealthyElijah> and u cant use them on the same install right?
[06:23] <vulcanius> firebird619, each ring outward is deeper into the file tree
[06:23] <peanutb> yes
[06:23] <jetscreamer> in fact it's the second thing it asks you on first run
[06:23] <HealthyElijah> i know you cant use at same time
[06:23] <firebird619> vulcanius: So how do I tell what is taking up the most space?
[06:23] <vulcanius> firebird619, so /home will be at the center and /home/user/Desktop/Pictures/pron/ will be farther out
[06:23] <HealthyElijah> but can you install kde and gnome on same system
[06:23] <jetscreamer> yes
[06:23] <HealthyElijah> is that what xubuntu is?
[06:23] <nickrud> HealthyElijah: sure, not the integration but the apps: I just used k3b to burn a dvd in gnome
[06:23] <jetscreamer> i have kde gnome and icewm.. also kdm and gdm
[06:24] <peanutb> as well as use KDE proga on gnome and vica-versa
[06:24] <javier> kde is better
[06:24] <firebird619> vulcanius: 4,106 is usr/
[06:24] <javier> byee
[06:24] <vulcanius> firebird619, the wider the cross section the more space thats being taken up
[06:24] <peanutb> javier, thats an opinion
[06:24] <jetscreamer> i use kde stuff in gnome, and would use gnome stuff in kde but i don't want to
[06:24] <jetscreamer> you can install both full blown desktops or just pick and choose
[06:24] <vulcanius> HealthyElijah, yes Xubuntu is XFCE
[06:24] <HealthyElijah> is xubuntu just linux with xfce
[06:25] <chodianoronaldo> anyone here at all familiar with iptables
[06:25] <chodianoronaldo> and gameservers?
[06:25] <Jewfro-Macabbi> parsek_77, see if anything here helps: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=537836
[06:25] <vulcanius> HealthyElijah, you can install them all together
[06:25] <firebird619> vulcanius: so that is /usr, /usr/lib, and /usr/share
[06:25] <vulcanius> HealthyElijah, to switch you can log out and select which one you want to use
[06:25] <pike_> HealthyElijah: xubuntu package pulls in some other stuff too.  abiword and such
[06:25] <gokhan_> hi gys
[06:25] <HealthyElijah> well for a noob i need to stick with the most poular stuff for support reasons, maybe i iwll mess with kde soon although gnome is very fancy with compiz fusion
[06:25] <vulcanius> firebird619, ok, so click on /usr/share
[06:26] <vulcanius> firebird619, you can go deeper and deeper in by clicking on the sections
[06:26] <HealthyElijah> still cannot get raised windows in my cube though
[06:26] <nickrud> kde has excellent support as well, it's just not as good ;)
[06:26] <punzada> it's all about preference really, gnome is my cup of tea
[06:26] <peanutb> KDe is my cup of tea as it happens
[06:26] <peanutb> sort of like apples and oranges
[06:26] <parsek_77> Jewfro-Macabbi: thanks for your help
[06:26] <HealthyElijah> so as far as market share goes what do you guys think Gnome and KDE wise?
[06:26] <peanutb> in the end we're all fruit
[06:27] <nickrud> and nuts
[06:27] <HealthyElijah> 20/20
[06:27] <HealthyElijah> 35/40
[06:27] <punzada> with all the different distros
[06:27] <firebird619> vulcanius: In /usr/share, the most is 491 MB, but I can't click it and it doesn't tell me what directory it is.
[06:27] <vulcanius> HealthyElijah, probably too hard to say
[06:27] <punzada> its hard to make that assumption
[06:27] <HealthyElijah> guestimate
[06:27] <HealthyElijah> ballpark
[06:27] <peanutb> to close to call
[06:27] <HealthyElijah> it isnt 5% is it?
[06:27] <punzada> of what?
[06:27] <firebird619> vulcanius: /usr/share in general uses 2.1 GB
[06:28] <HealthyElijah> give me a rough estimate of people you come into contact with on the channel
[06:28] <HealthyElijah> ok, lets take a quick poll then
[06:28] <nickrud> wrong place to compare; ubuntu is gnome, #kubuntu is kde.
[06:28] <HealthyElijah> what is your preferrd environment?
[06:28] <punzada> exactly
[06:28] <punzada> lol
[06:28] <HealthyElijah> what do you use nick?
[06:28] <chodianoronaldo> CLI
[06:28] <HealthyElijah> im not comparing at all
[06:28] <chodianoronaldo> >both
[06:28] <chodianoronaldo> aha
[06:28] <nickrud> chodianoronaldo: you use mutt then?
[06:28] <eatupmartha> how can I troubleshoot to find out what is causing my desktop effects not to be able to enable?
[06:29] <chodianoronaldo> not at all, i use gnome because i dont really care
[06:29] <MarcoPau> hello, the mount window is not popping up any more when I plug my usb pen drive in. what am I supposed to check?
[06:29] <vulcanius> firebird619, hrm... you should be able to continue into the filetree further than just /usr/share
[06:29] <chodianoronaldo> terminal/putty's always there
[06:29] <peanutb> i use KDE/Gnome/Fluxbox depending on what im doing
[06:29] <firebird619> vulcanius: it won't let me though.
[06:29] <chodianoronaldo> aanyone here familiar with iptables?
[06:29] <HealthyElijah> well since you guys cant pull just 1 number out then I will have to assume then
[06:29] <chodianoronaldo> and their effect on cs servers displaying correctly in server lists
[06:29] <chodianoronaldo> ?
[06:29] <firebird619> vulcanius: /usr/lib uses 1.4 GB
[06:29] <vulcanius> firebird619, it just sits there?
[06:30] <nickrud> HealthyElijah: gnome for web, mail, writing, but cli for management
[06:30] <chodianoronaldo> ?
[06:30] <peanutb> HealthyElijah, try both and see which one you like
[06:30] <HealthyElijah> i assume that the majority of linux distros have gnome installed 40%
[06:30] <peanutb> both have helpful communities
[06:30] <firebird619> vulcanius: Yes, however, I can click other sections of /usr/share to go deeper, but I can't click to go deeper on the section that is taking up the most space.
[06:30] <punzada> depends on the distro
[06:30] <punzada> but i'm pretty sure you can install it to anyone that has X on it no problem
[06:30] <HealthyElijah> I assume that the runner up is kde with 30% and the rmaining 30% is divided amongst others
[06:30] <bruenig> HealthyElijah, a majority if distros probably have neither
[06:30] <punzada> so it's really a moot point
[06:30] <bruenig> HealthyElijah, seeing as linux is generally a server OS
[06:31] <punzada> yup
[06:31] <HealthyElijah> the majority of desktop distros is what i am assuming
[06:31] <peanutb> bruenig, i have to disagree
[06:31] <pike_> id say gtk has a significant lead over qt
[06:31] <HealthyElijah> Linux is going to be hitting some major market share soon
[06:31] <peanutb> HealthyElijah, seriously just use whatevr you are comfortable with
[06:32] <chodianoronaldo> hahaha
[06:32] <robert11> its a server OS and a desktop all at the same time
[06:32] <bruenig> well someone go down distrowatch and figure it out, shouldn't take too long
[06:32] <firebird619> vulcanius: I just tried running apt-get autoclean again, thinking it might work after having restarted the PC, and that worked now, it didn't give me the no space message.
[06:32] <chodianoronaldo> why do you bother debating it
[06:32] <HealthyElijah> peanutb: I am but that is not what I wanted to know
[06:32] <chodianoronaldo> it's not like you've got statistics
[06:32] <HealthyElijah> Im not debating
[06:32] <chodianoronaldo> it's all simply opinion
[06:32] <chodianoronaldo> ahah
[06:32] <HealthyElijah> I just want to know majority for support reasons
[06:32] <punzada> HealthyElijah, you use marketshare in such a board term
[06:32] <bruenig> oh pclinuxos is above ubuntu now, uh oh
[06:32] <peanutb> heck. im on osx at the moment. My desktop next to it is running linux
[06:32] <chodianoronaldo> then you'd be best looking for stats
[06:32] <chodianoronaldo> i'm on winxp
[06:32] <chodianoronaldo> pc behind is fawn
[06:33] <HealthyElijah> no, it is not opinion, there is a exact number percentage wise and that is what i am trying to pull out of you guys but none of you have a clue,
[06:33] <chodianoronaldo> well yes
[06:33] <vulcanius> firebird619, hrm... good.
[06:33] <nickrud> HealthyElijah: exactly
[06:33] <chodianoronaldo> that's pretty much exactly right
[06:33] <chodianoronaldo> in the immortal words of dane cook
[06:33] <chodianoronaldo> google that shit.
[06:33] <vulcanius> firebird619, i'd recommend removing any packages you don't plan on using
[06:33] <nickrud> rflol
[06:33] <bruenig> HealthyElijah, like I said go down distro watch, tally it up on a sheet of paper, might take you 10 min or so
[06:33] <Jimmi_jones> can someone please tell me what is wrong with this line for fstab?
[06:33] <Jimmi_jones> /dev/hdb2       /windows swap space     ext3    defaults,errors=remount-rw, 0 1
[06:33] <HealthyElijah> it is much easier to ask experienced linux users or so i thought
[06:33] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: the swap space
[06:33] <firebird619> vulcanius: Ok, I can give that a try. Thank you for all of your help so far.
[06:33] <HealthyElijah> maybe it is easier to get an answer out of a computer
[06:34] <Jimmi_jones> spaces in the name?
[06:34] <LarNet> wow this room is growing
[06:34] <HealthyElijah> bruenig: thanks i will do that
[06:34] <chodianoronaldo> well if it was a question 'do you LIKE gnome' then you'd be fine asking it on IRC
[06:34] <vulcanius> firebird619, no problem
[06:34] <LarNet> Shows how popular Ubuntu is now
[06:34] <chodianoronaldo> but the question isn't about something subjective, you're after hard facts
[06:34] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: no, 'swap space' has no business in that line. And, /windows is probably ntfs not ext3
[06:34] <HealthyElijah> LarNet: Linux is going to grab more and more market share
[06:34] <vulcanius> what? this is Ubuntu?! oh shit, i thought i was in #vista!
[06:34] <LarNet> ha ha
[06:35] <HealthyElijah> LarNet: I just installed ubuntu after watching COmpiuz Fusion Youtube videos
[06:35] <chodianoronaldo> vista comes on computers these days?
[06:35] <peanutb> yes. it does sadly
[06:35] <HealthyElijah> vulcanius: BOT ALERT
[06:35] <riotkittie> argh
[06:35] <LarNet> I have been using Ubuntu for over 2 years
[06:35] <vulcanius> chodianoronaldo, you can't really call them computers after that. more like giant paper weights
[06:35] <punzada> I finally installed ubuntu because I saw a fix for my shitty graphics card that i've been waiting two years for
[06:35] <nickrud> LarNet: then you remember seeing 150 people here ;)
[06:35] <Jimmi_jones> yeah, I realized after naming it that it was a dumb choice, but you live and learn. The directory is named "windows swap space" and is a shared directory over smb
[06:35] <LarNet> dumped Windose in all aspects
[06:36] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: don't use spaces in partition names, it confuses things
[06:36] <riotkittie> i'm /this/ close to tossing my computer out of the closest window. or i would be, if my arms werent sore.
[06:36] <chodianoronaldo> now that you're all awake and alive
[06:36] <LarNet> I know, over 1k is incredible
[06:36] <chodianoronaldo> anyone here familiar with iptables
[06:36] <chodianoronaldo> ?
[06:36] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: can you help me clean something up please?
[06:36] <chodianoronaldo> specifically their effect on cs servers not displaying on LAN server lists
[06:36] <chodianoronaldo> t,t
[06:36] <HealthyElijah> Have you guys all seen the distro timeline? --> http://730x.up.md/wp-content/44218-1.png
[06:36] <nickrud> chodianoronaldo: familiar enough to use shorewall for all my firewall needs
[06:36] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: sure, ask away
[06:37] <chodianoronaldo> any reason why a vanilla ubuntu install running lowlatency kernel
[06:37] <nosklo> riotkittie: can you toss it in me? I am in need of computers to make some labs for the children
[06:37] <chodianoronaldo> wouldn't display cs-servers in the lan server list
[06:37] <Mozillero> hola alguien que hable espaol
[06:37] <chodianoronaldo> but you can conncet to them fine using the connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx cmd in cs
[06:37] <not2cre8ive> anyone willing to help a ubuntu noob with a (hopefully) small question?
[06:37] <riotkittie> !es > Mozillero
[06:37] <Jimmi_jones> I had / and swap over two drives. They became full. So I dropped in another 80 gig drive and partitioned out.
[06:37] <riotkittie> not2cre8ive: ask
[06:37] <nickrud> not2cre8ive: lots willing, maybe someone actually knows the answer, if they know the question
[06:37] <Jimmi_jones> hdb1 had 10 gigs hdb2 had 70 gigs.
[06:38] <not2cre8ive> nickrud: true
[06:38] <nosklo> !ask > not2cre8ive
[06:38] <alecwh> How do I switch Nauitlus to Thunar?
[06:38] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: ok, I think I'm clear so far
[06:38] <HealthyElijah> Ubuntu had a release named "hoary"  hahahah
[06:38] <guhhh> is it stupid to do a manual chroot and also use mod_security to secure apache 2?
[06:38] <Jimmi_jones> I then did cp -vax /"windows swap space" /mnt/bigdrive 2, bigdrive2 being where I mounted the 70 gigs
[06:38] <Jimmi_jones> I then went in and did rm on everything in the "windows swap space" directory
[06:39] <not2cre8ive> k...trying to play a video that requires a quicktime codec...how do I install the codec or do I need a different player?
[06:39] <Jimmi_jones> This should have cleared up some space so that I could upgrade distros, (I was out of disk space)
[06:39] <vulcanius> alecwh, http://assente.altervista.org/it/use_thunar_as_default_gnome_file_manager/
[06:40] <Jimmi_jones> now I want to mount that 70 gig partition under the "windows swap space" directory since it is all set up under smb already, but I don't seem to be able to pull that last bit off.
[06:40] <HealthyElijah> bruenig: How do i get these stats out of distro watch, I must be missing something?
[06:40] <riotkittie> argh. err. uhm. ah. i have a stupid question! :D  if i cant get grub on hda to stop being stupid, i can merely edit grub's menu.lst on hdb and load from .. . ah never mind.
[06:40] <vulcanius> not2cre8ive, you can install libquicktime
[06:40] <alecwh> Thanks!
[06:40] <bruenig> HealthyElijah, I was going to have you count them, but I am working on a script here to do it more quickly
[06:41] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: I've never tried to mount a partition with spaces in the name, a sec while I look something up.
[06:41] <riotkittie> will quotations not work for that?
[06:42] <not2cre8ive> vulcanius: got that
[06:42] <HealthyElijah> have you guys seen this --> http://730x.up.md/wp-content/44218-1.png
[06:42] <HealthyElijah> sweet timeline, made things much clearer for me
[06:42] <HealthyElijah> turns out redhat and debian have been around a loong time
[06:42] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: the partition isn't named that, it is a directory under / that is named "windows swap space", dunno if that makes a difference or not. I usually have to enclose the directory name in "" on the linux side of things
[06:42] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: try /dev/hdb2       /windows\040swap\040space     ext3    defaults,errors=remount-rw, 0 1
[06:42] <HealthyElijah> noob linux users have no clue about that stuff
[06:42] <staykovmarin_> does anyone have a soltion for playing files ripped by windows media player in wma format that seem to be encrypted?
[06:43] <alecwh> I just installed xfce-desktop to try it out, and I didn't like it, so I got back into gnome. I just uninstalled it by doing a: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude remove xubuntu-desktop, but there is still misc applications still stored everywhere. How do I get rid of them?
[06:43] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: brb, thnx
[06:43] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: the man page for mounts says use \040 for spaces
[06:43] <HealthyElijah> alecwh: yikes
[06:43] <not2cre8ive> vulcanius: trying to play the vid in Totem, is there another player?
[06:43] <alecwh> HealthyElijah: ?
[06:43] <NeoGeo64> Will the next version of Ubuntu be better than the last
[06:44] <nickrud> staykovmarin_: windows is the solution to that problem.
[06:44] <pike_> alecwh: you cant uninstall it using the metapackage.. im not sure since xfce is gtk too what would be the best way
[06:44] <NeoGeo64> will the new version of ubuntu use the new linux scheduler?
[06:44] <alecwh> so
[06:44] <alecwh> I just uninstalled gnome? :P
[06:44] <vulcanius> not2cre8ive, VLC
[06:44] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: well at least I am getting a new error now. LOL
[06:45] <riotkittie> alecwh: no
[06:45] <vulcanius> not2cre8ive, a.k.a videolan
[06:45] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: mount point 0 does not exist
[06:45] <not2cre8ive> vulcanius, thanks...I'll try it
[06:45] <vulcanius> np
[06:45] <vulcanius> not2cre8ive, VLC is pretty much the definitive media player.
[06:46] <pike_> not2cre8ive: vlc is what you use when youre too lazy to use mplayer :)
[06:46] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sysvinit/+bug/32455 has something you should read
[06:46] <not2cre8ive> vulcanius, never heard of it...but then again...learning something new everyday
[06:46] <iownyou> hello
[06:46] <iownyou> can anybody help me?
[06:46] <vulcanius> pike_, haha
[06:46] <not2cre8ive> pike, what is the difference
[06:47] <not2cre8ive> ?
[06:47] <vulcanius> iownyou, maybe
[06:47] <vulcanius> iownyou, what are you going to give us in return?
[06:47] <iownyou> ok vulcanius
[06:47] <iownyou> lol
[06:47] <alecwh> What's the easiest/least 'dangerous' way to try out kubuntu without installing the OS? (like, installing it in gnome)
[06:47] <iownyou> the live cd
[06:47] <not2cre8ive> iownyou, live cd
[06:47] <alecwh> I mean, installing it with a command
[06:47] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: would I be better off to delete the directory of "windows swap space"? Create a new directory and rework samba to play nice with it?
[06:48] <rellik__> why does synaptic list 'gnome' as uninstalled?
[06:48] <alecwh> trying it out as a session
[06:48] <not2cre8ive> oops...meant alecwh
[06:48] <iownyou> gosh so many people
[06:48] <iownyou> can somebody help me like privetly?
[06:48] <iownyou> so we dont get interfence
[06:48] <sixpence> iownyou: WHat's the problem?
[06:49] <alecwh> Where can I download the kubuntu live cd?
[06:49] <Jwh424> hello
[06:49] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: I would. I avoid spaces like the plague in directory & file names. It used to be a real problem, and although most programs are a lot smarter about it that bug shows it's still not really implemented well
[06:49] <iownyou> ok ive installed UBUNTU on my computer
[06:49] <sixpence> iownyou: And?
[06:49] <firebird619> vulcanius: 672 MB will be freed once it is done uninstalling.
[06:49] <Jwh424> lord, lord, lord. I've waited my entire day trying to fix my ubuntu
[06:49] <iownyou> and when it starts up like it loads the orange bar
[06:49] <Jwh424> I've spent**
[06:49] <vulcanius> firebird619, excellent
[06:50] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: Yeah, I did it a couple years ago when first getting into this. Have kicked myself more then once for it.
[06:50] <iownyou> then after that it goes blank and says out of frquency
[06:50] <HealthyElijah> alecwh: live cd
[06:50] <nickrud> rellik__: that's a metapackage from debian, you really don't want to install that
[06:50] <sixpence> CAn anyone give me a link to an advanced user's guide to Ubunto. Featuring only command-line guides with regards to keeping your system up to date and secure? I can't use a GUI and never want to.
[06:50] <firebird619> vulcanius: When that is done, I will restart and try and login and hope it works. I'll let you know either way.
[06:50] <h08817> Virtual screen too big for memory; 5120K needed, 4086 available. what do I do?
[06:50] <sixpence> iownyou: Okay, are able to press CTRL+ALT+F1 and go into the console?
[06:51] <HealthyElijah> tell hin about ctrl alt f7 to get back first
[06:51] <zarcoder> 
[06:51] <sixpence> HealthyElijah: What's the use if it's not working?
[06:51] <iownyou> well right after the bar loads it goes out of frequency
[06:51] <sixpence> iownyou: Does the monitor go into sleep mode?
[06:51] <vulcanius> firebird619, okey doke
[06:51] <nickrud> sixpence: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto is a good place to start
[06:51] <HealthyElijah> i did that and had to reboot because i had no clue
[06:51] <sixpence> nickrud: Thanks
[06:51] <iownyou> first it says out of frequency and then it goes into sleep
[06:51] <Jwh424> I have the nvidia 8 series graphics card, I've installed the driver. restart the xserver, it works. but when I restart the machine it gives me this unable to load kernel module. I've even reinstalled it specifing the source of kernel path. How can I fix this problem?
[06:51] <iownyou> like after 10 seconds
[06:52] <sixpence> iownyou: Okay. Do you have any other computers with Linux on them?
[06:52] <firebird619> vulcanius: Ok, going to restart now.
[06:52] <iownyou> no
[06:52] <vulcanius> firebird619, good luck
[06:52] <firebird619> vulcanius: thanks
[06:52] <sixpence> iownyou: Damn. You have a BIG job ahead of you.
[06:52] <HealthyElijah> how do i get rid of the join/leave notifications, i am tired of them
[06:52] <iownyou> why
[06:52] <kr00l> Anyone know if VIA chipset will work with Ubuntu?
[06:52] <rellik__> nickrud, so what do I do if I want to reinstall gnome?
[06:52] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: I am using via chipset
[06:53] <sixpence> iownyou: You need to boot the live-cd. Mount your root partition, chroot and edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to change the vert refresh and horizon sync rates =)
[06:53] <sixpence> iownyou: In a nutshelff.
[06:53] <vulcanius> sixpence, check out www.ubuntuguide.org as well.
[06:53] <sixpence> vulcanius: Awesome
[06:53] <h08817> is there anything I can do about my video card supposedly not having enough ram
[06:53] <iownyou> DAMN
[06:53] <iownyou> i have no clue how to do that
[06:53] <sixpence> iownyou: Alright.
[06:53] <h08817> anything i can edit in the xorg.conf file to fix this rendering issue?
[06:53] <Rorshach> how do I go about finding the program for the wireless tray icon that comes with 7.04?
[06:53] <iownyou> and i used the andvanced install cd
[06:53] <nickrud> rellik__: what do you mean, reinstall gnome? you having issues with something (reinstalling "gnome" can be done, but usually not needed)
[06:54] <sixpence> iownyou: That's no problem. Hmm
[06:54] <iownyou> not live
[06:54] <sixpence> iownyou: I can't explain it to you now, I have to go to sleep.
[06:54] <nickrud> Rorshach: that's nm-applet
[06:54] <vulcanius> h08817, what resolution are you attempting to use?
[06:54] <sixpence> Can someone in here explain to iownyou how to mount the root partition, chroot and edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf vert refresh and horizon sync?
[06:54] <iownyou> then where can i find a tutorial
[06:55] <sixpence> iownyou: You kind of have to piece it together because you gotta mount the proc and dev filesystems
[06:55] <h08817> vulcanius, i do not know. I just installed fiesty and i haven't made it into gnome yet
[06:55] <Rorshach> nickrud: okay, and where can I find information on how to get the tray to display the icon?
[06:55] <sirrush> Hello everyone
[06:55] <rellik__> nickrud, when I log in the applet raises an error, I can't alt-tab, etc, I've been trying to fix it for a while now, including looking over at #gnome..  now I wanna try reconfiguring gnome
[06:55] <iownyou> arent they already mounter
[06:55] <iownyou> mounted
[06:55] <vulcanius> h08817, is it on that machine or another?
[06:55] <h08817> vulcanius, everything was installing fine on first boot then said my X w/e crashed
[06:55] <nickrud> Rorshach: all I do is   alt-f2    nm-applet   .
[06:56] <rellik__> nickrud, s/applet/panel
[06:56] <sx66_> Does ubuntu use less resources compaired to xubuntu?
[06:56] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: o.k. now what is wrong with this?
[06:56] <sixpence> iownyou: One second, let me try something
[06:56] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: /dev/hdb2       /windows_swap_space     ext3
[06:56] <Jimmi_jones> defaults,errors=remount-rw, 0 1
[06:56] <iownyou> k man
[06:56] <aras2> !firefox
[06:56] <ubotu> firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[06:56] <vulcanius> sx66_, xfce/xubuntu is going to use less than gnome/ubuntu
[06:56] <h08817> vulcanius, fiesty is on the machine that has the screen issues
[06:56] <iownyou> thanks sixpence
[06:56] <sx66_> vulcanius, what about kde?
[06:56] <iownyou> maybe you can tell me your aim and you can help me over aim
[06:56] <nickrud> rellik__: try in a terminal,    gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel  . That will reset and clear the panel config, it may fix it. Otherwise, try sudo aptitude reinstall gnome-panel
[06:57] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: that looks cleaner :)
[06:57] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: I did that thinking I could just go into samba.conf and add the underscores in the right places, but it is still telling me the mount point doesn't exist.
[06:57] <h08817> vulcanius, any ideas?
[06:57] <vulcanius> h08817, you can use CTRL+ALT+F1 to switch to a virtual terminal. and you can use CTRL+ALT+F7 to switch back. in a virtual terminal you'll need to "cd /etc/X11/" and open your "xorg.conf"
[06:57] <vulcanius> sx66_, KDE is going to use the most of the three
[06:57] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: did you make the directory /windows_swap_space first?
[06:57] <bruenig> alright I got my script to work
[06:57] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: I did mkdir /windows_swap_space
[06:57] <sixpence> iownyou: Okay, I am going to PM you all the commands. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS VERY CAREFULLY
[06:57] <iownyou> ok
[06:57] <bruenig> it is downloading all the pages and parsing them now so i should have a measurement soon of most common desktop
[06:58] <iownyou> ill print them
[06:58] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: and mkdir /mnt/windows_swap_space
[06:58] <sx66_> ah, vulcanius so, xfce is the best for laptops, and gnome, and kde is a resource mucho user?
[06:58] <riuhhhtkittie> oh. the horror.
[06:58] <sixpence> iownyou: check your PM's
[06:58] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: an ls of either place shows them to exist
[06:58] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: to be clear, you can mount the partition, and read it. Samba's the problem
[06:58] <h08817> vulcanius, what do i open it with? pico?
[06:58] <HealthyElijah> sx66_: thanks for the tip
[06:58] <iownyou> how
[06:58] <iownyou> im on mIRC
[06:58] <vulcanius> h08817, in your xorg.conf you'll want to look in your "Screen" section and check what Modes are there
[06:58] <TUXminator> hihi
[06:58] <vulcanius> h08817, you can use pico or nano or vi
[06:59] <sixpence> iownyou: Oh, that's windows
[06:59] <sixpence> iownyou: I have no clue
[06:59] <HealthyElijah> sx66_: I tried ubuntu on my ancient dell laptop (live cd) and got some propmpt
[06:59] <vulcanius> h08817, what ever your preference is
[06:59] <EvilAIM> Question,  What is the easiest most user friendly P2P program for ubuntu fiesty?
[06:59] <gunspoja> gday everyone
[06:59] <iownyou> lol
[06:59] <iownyou> you have aim or msn
[06:59] <HealthyElijah> sx66_: I will try xubunu on it
[06:59] <gunspoja> EvilAIM, command line, according to some :P
[06:59] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: haven't gotten to samba yet. sudo mount -a after editing fstab gives me: mount: mount point 0 does not exist
[06:59] <EvilAIM> haha
[06:59] <firebird619> vulcanius: It worked. I can login now.
[06:59] <iownyou> or maybe you can pm you my email
[06:59] <sixpence> iownyou: Yeah but i'm not going to give it out on this channel
[06:59] <gunspoja> EvilAIM how about a minimalistic text editor?
[07:03] (iownyou/#ubuntu) you have my aim
[07:03] (iownyou/#ubuntu) im gonna go search it
[07:03] (nickrud/#ubuntu) Rorshach: that sounds like you have more than one nm-applet running
[07:03] (h08817/#ubuntu) vulcanius, when the rendering fails it gives me the error: Virtual screen to big for memory; 5120K needed, 4096K available
[07:03] (Jimmi_jones/#ubuntu) nickrud: tell me about it! LOL
[07:03] (EvilAIM/#ubuntu) No it isn't, some artists release public songs...
[07:04] (vulcanius/#ubuntu) h08817, can your monitor and video card handle those resolutions? also, look up further in xorg.conf and under the "Device" section tell me what driver you're using
[07:04] (Rorshach/#ubuntu) nickrud: hmm, how can I check?
[07:04] (h08817/#ubuntu) vulcanius, i believe so it does in windows
[07:04] (bruenig/#ubuntu) ok so to whoever was interested here is the result of my distrowatch script: of 366 distros, we have KDE number 1 with 132 distros as default, gnome in second with 87, no default desktop takes third place with 75, and then fluxbox has 18, and xfce has 16, there are some other sparse icewms and whatnot as well
[07:04] (TUXminator/#ubuntu) Flannel: Thx
[07:04] (iownyou/#ubuntu) ill look in the ubuntu forums unless ANYBODY HERE CAN HELP me OUT
[07:04] (Rorshach/#ubuntu) and yes, I'm a n00b. ^^
[07:04] (nickrud/#ubuntu) Rorshach: look in system=>prefs=>sessions  , the middle tab
[07:04] <iownyou> can somebody help me Mounting root partition, chrooting into it and editting xorg.conf vertical refresh and horizontal synchronization rates
[07:04] <h08817> vulcanius, Driver "sis"
[07:04] <bruenig> HealthyElijah, was that you?
[07:04] <TUXminator> ubotu: Thx Thx
[07:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about thx thx - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:05] <HealthyElijah> bruenig: When
[07:05] <nickrud> iownyou: have you booted into a live cd?
[07:05] <bruenig> HealthyElijah, the default desktop guy?
[07:05] <TUXminator> @@?
[07:05] <HealthyElijah> bruenig: Yup
[07:05] <vulcanius> h08817, ok, exit out of the xorg.conf and do "sudo cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.back" to make a backup of it
[07:05] <bruenig> HealthyElijah, ok so scroll up a bit, I have the results of my script
[07:05] <Rorshach> nickrud: hmm only see one, though I wonder, does the icon change along with the theme of the desktop?
[07:05] <iownyou> i have a advanced install CD so im on windows xp right now
[07:05] <nickrud> Rorshach: not that I've noticed for that one
[07:06] <HealthyElijah> bruenig: how far up, i didnt see anything
[07:06] <rellik__> nickrud, any other ideas?  if I can't fix gnome, or even just reinstall it, then I'm down to reinstalling ubuntu altogether :(
[07:06] <h08817> vulcanius, ok done
[07:06] <HealthyElijah> rellik__: that would be fastest
[07:06] <Jordan_U> rellik__, What's the problem?
[07:06] <iownyou> nickrud: can you help with Mounting root partition, chrooting into it and editting xorg.conf vertical refresh and horizontal synchronization rates
[07:06] <nickrud> rellik__: out of ideas for fixes, without seeing the exact error
[07:06] <vulcanius> h08817, now open xorg.conf again but put "sudo" in front of your command
[07:06] <HealthyElijah> rellik__: Im a noob but that is what i woul;d do
[07:07] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: whats the CLI to restart samba?
[07:07] <nickrud> iownyou: are you booted into a live cd right now?
[07:07] <Jordan_U> rellik__, A re-install is almost never necessary
[07:07] <h08817> ok
[07:07] <iownyou> no im on windows
[07:07] <TUXminator> ubotu: You are the NO.1 !!!
[07:07] <Rorshach> nickrud: well thank you for helping me to get this far, I'm going to look into this a bit more to see what I can find.
[07:07] <bruenig> HealthyElijah, 366 total distros, kde has 132, gnome has 87, no default desktop has 75, fluxbox has 18, xfce has 16, and then there are some other more obscure lessers
[07:07] <h08817> vulcanius, done
[07:07] <iownyou> can i do it from inside the live cd
[07:07] <rellik__> Jordan_U, yeah, I know..  but I'm dealing with this small issue that I can't seem to figure out...
[07:07] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: sudo invoke-rc.d samba restart
[07:07] <nickrud> iownyou: yes
[07:08] <vulcanius> h08817, ok now replace "sis" with "vesa" and remove any Modes you saw earlier that are larger than "800x600"
[07:08] <murlidhar> !xorg.conf | rellik__
[07:08] <ubotu> rellik__: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:08] <juan>  which is more reliable reiserfs or jfs, (for a system that will probably crash and run out of battery so have lots of bad shutdowns)?
[07:08] <vulcanius> h08817, then save and exit the xorg.conf
[07:08] <iownyou> im ging to make a live cd then
[07:08] <rellik__> murlidhar, what's that for?
[07:09] <bruenig> there was a metacity and a firefox in there too, so that is interesting
[07:09] <bruenig> probably just those distros pages weren't formatted the same as the rest
[07:09] <HealthyElijah> bruenig:  366 total distros, kde has 132, gnome has 87  <-- Thanks!!
[07:09] <murlidhar> rellik__, follow the link given to u by ubotu
[07:09] <HealthyElijah> Im closer now!
[07:10] <HealthyElijah> Still dont know about poularity
[07:10] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: and voila! it is good. Thanks again. I wish there were something I could do for you, that was truly helpful. (btw the underscore thing in smb.conf worked)
[07:10] <iownyou> so what live cd should i make
[07:10] <kr00l> Can anyone tell me if this processor will be fast enough for someone that is going to use it as an office/media pc? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103186
[07:10] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: yw.
[07:10] <Jordan_U> iownyou, i386
[07:10] <rellik__> Jordan_U, at login (to gnome) I was getting an error msg abot trash applet (for the panel), and the panel was screwed up, and I couldn't alt-tab, alt-f2, etc..  so I took trashapplet off the panel, and the error msg doesn't come up anymore..  but all the other issues are still there
[07:10] <nickrud> iownyou: ubuntu i386
[07:10] <bruenig> well it wasn't an all in one script, I downloaded distrowatch.org html and used vim to just get a list of the distros, then use a for loop and grepped for Default Desktop and then some other clean up stuff with sed and appended it all to a text file, then used grep and wc -l to list the lines of each desktop
[07:10] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: Definitely
[07:11] <iownyou> can you give me downlaod page please?
[07:11] <iownyou> ill apreciat it =] 
[07:11] <kr00l> HealthyElijah, should i go dual core or single core?
[07:11] <HealthyElijah> bruenig: Nice job, I have no clue how but cool!
[07:11] <rellik__> murlidhar, I took at look at the link..  it's just video resolution stuff..  not sure what you're getting at
[07:11] <bruenig> HealthyElijah, note that no desktop comes in with 75
[07:11] <nickrud> iownyou: releases.ubuntu.com/7.04
[07:12] <HealthyElijah> bruenig: I really want to get an idea for desktop linux users, I understand most are probably servers
[07:12] <murlidhar> rellik__, what is ur problem perhaps i can help cuz  i am a noobie too
[07:12] <Jordan_U> bruenig, nice, did you just use regex's from vim or something more fun ? :)
[07:12] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: well dual core would be way nicer
[07:12] <h08817> vulcanius, you are the man thanks a lot I have a desktop now!
[07:12] <maquiavel>  :) windows !!!!!!!!!!!
[07:12] <Bakefy> If I have a computer with ATI graphics is Ubuntu going to be worth installing?
[07:12] <vulcanius> h08817, np, you seem to be having a problem with your drivers
[07:12] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: what is your main goal with this? to play movies and use gnome/kde?
[07:13] <Jwh424> Failed to star the X server after installing nvidia drivers.
[07:13] <h08817> vulcanius, yeah its an old computer
[07:13] <Rorshach> nickrud: okay, found something interesting, in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22/apps it shows the signal strength indicator for the nm-applet in various degrees.
[07:13] <rellik__> murlidhar, I'm not a noobie :)
[07:13] <bruenig> Jordan_U, well actually the code was all on one line so I first used sed to translate object value= or something like that to \n so that they were all on their same lines basically, then used vim to delete everything before and after that and then vim again to clean out everything after the distros name on each line using regex
[07:13] <Jordan_U> Bakefy, Yes, it will probably work fine for the most part, just won't have great 3D acceleration or desktop effects
[07:13] <juan> kr00l: your not likely to use dual core unless you do emulation,
[07:13] <nickrud> rellik__: if you really want to do that, you'd do in a virtual console (alt-f1) sudo apt-get remove --purge glib2.0-0 && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:13] <vulcanius> h08817, ah, well i believe 800x600 is the best resolution you'll get with the vesa drivers but at least it's something
[07:13] <murlidhar> rellik__,  but i am :(
[07:13] <rellik__> nickrud, thanks, I'll give that a shot
[07:13] <bruenig> then a good ole for x in $(cat textfile); do wget distrowatch.org/"$x" and so forth
[07:14] <h08817> vulcanius, yeah it'll work thanks now im off to installing my wireless usb
[07:14] <iownyou> this is going to take long to download this
[07:14] <vulcanius> h08817, np, good luck
[07:14] <Bakefy> Jordan_U has there been improvement in the last two months?  I tried it a bit ago and it was really screwy.
[07:14] <nickrud> rellik__: that's how I would clear out gnome when using debian unstable and things got out of whack. ymmv on ubuntu
[07:14] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: Ask everyone here what they are using for a pc, power wise, you will be surprised
[07:14] <kr00l> HealthyElijah, this is the situation: I have a friend that wants me to build him a computer for school. I want him to use Ubuntu but if he doesn't like it i have to install Windows XP so i need a system that's going to be fast with any OS.
[07:14] <h08817> vulcanius, np did it before in my earlier version of ubuntu hoary edition but alot has changed since then lol
[07:14] <Jordan_U> Bakefy, If two months ago you used Feisty there will be absolutely no difference now
[07:14] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: does he plan on vista as a backup?
[07:15] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: because you are asking for $$$ then
[07:15] <HealthyElijah> Get him to do both XP and ubuntu, he will need it sooner or later
[07:15] <Bakefy> Thanks Jordan_U
[07:15] <kr00l> HealthyElijah, I build gaming pc's so i don't want to go over board. I'v never built an office pc i want to keep it cheap but can't have it break
[07:15] <bruenig> asteriskgui comes in last with 1 distro
[07:15] <Jordan_U> Bakefy, Though you should try again when Gutsy comes out
[07:15] <nickrud> Rorshach: I'd expect that the app just changes the icon for different strengths. I've seen two applets before. I *think* killall gnome-panel cleared it up, but I thought I did it in the session dialog
[07:16] <HealthyElijah> well for me personally I would stick with a intel board for rock solidness
[07:16] <vulcanius> kr00l, the only thing i could think to change would be to look for a slightly higher L2 Cache
[07:16] <HealthyElijah> just my experience
[07:16] <Bakefy> Jordan_U I read something about that linked on Digg, when is that expected to be released?
[07:16] <Jordan_U> Bakefy, New version of X, somewhat ( but not much ) better fglrx drivers
[07:16] <HealthyElijah> if it is just a reg puter
[07:16] <riuhhhtkittie> argh. this is what i get for taking the "easy" route. never again.
[07:16] <nickrud> bruenig: when you brought sed into it, my eyes glazed over. I
[07:16] <Jordan_U> !gutsy | Bakefy
[07:16] <ubotu> Bakefy: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[07:16] <juan> is reiserfs a useable filesystem if i have unsafe shutdowns?
[07:16] <CoasterMaster> !compiz
[07:16] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:16] <nickrud> 've just begun to actually use find properly, and I've been using linux for 7 years ;)
[07:16] <iownyou> nickrud: how long is this download going to take?
[07:16] <Bakefy> Thanks!
[07:17] <nickrud> iownyou: it's 670 gb. Do you have any working linux available?
[07:17] <kr00l> My problem is if i build him a computer for Ubuntu only he would save lots of $$$ but if i need a computer that can do XP he will have to pay more
[07:17] <Jwh424> Have anyone got nvidia driver installed successfully from the nvidia website? I'm getting the failed to load module error from the xserver.
[07:17] <riuhhhtkittie> ok. i can use grub on sdb to boot feisty on sda, right?  cause i cant get it to install to my external now  for some reason
[07:17] <nickrud> iownyou: make that mega bytes, not gb :)
[07:17] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: most any old computer will be just fine, most computers these days never get used to even half their ability
[07:17] <HealthyElijah> very few people are power users
[07:17] <Jordan_U> Bakefy, Gutsy +1 though will almost certainly have *MUCH* better ATI support, because of a recent change of heart on the part of ATI / AMD :)
[07:18] <Bakefy> Thats great news!
[07:18] <Rorshach> nickrud: so running that killall command in the alt-f2 would do the same thing?
[07:18] <Bakefy> thanks jordan_u!  cant wait for that day
[07:18] <MenZa> It is, Bakefy.
[07:18] <nickrud> Rorshach: yes
[07:18] <MenZa> "We're very excited about that"
[07:18] <MenZa> :p
[07:18] <kr00l> HealthyElijah, that's what I am thinking. Most people never use all the computers potential. I also want to build a computer that is really energy efficient which is why i choose this processor. Most laptops only have 1.5ghz and they run fine
[07:18] <Jordan_U> HealthyElijah, And not all ( or even most I would think ) power users utilize all of the recources of a new PC
[07:18] <iownyou> nickrud: lol no i dont but how long are you going to be on here?
[07:18] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: I am using a athlon xp 2200+ on a crappy old motherboard with 1 gig of ram and ubuntu and xp work great
[07:19] <Bakefy> for now my old computer still runs the best because it has nvidia
[07:19] <Jordan_U> HealthyElijah, I would think in the *NIX world they would use less
[07:19] <HealthyElijah> Jordan_U: I agree fully
[07:19] <MenZa> Bakefy: Yes, Nvidia makes us happy, too.
[07:19] <Jordan_U> (in general )
[07:19] <MenZa> (Me in particular. 7950GT ftw.)
[07:19] <HealthyElijah> I agree
[07:19] <rellik__> nickrud, thanks for the help..  hopefully whatever was causing the issue won't be around anymore
[07:19] <nickrud> iownyou: not a lot longer; but there's always someone around who can tell you how to edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file from a live cd. Just say that's what you need to do
[07:19] <overclucker> some pages wont load, specifically myspace, thepiratebay, and some random page about how pages won't load, heh, ironic, any tips?
[07:19] <nickrud> rellik__: I hope also
[07:19] <Bakefy> well... im going to bed, did everyone check out the woot?  http://woot.com
[07:19] <kr00l> HealthyElijah, the only requirement he said was that it needs to be fast. Well that's all objective, fast as in get Word up quickly or frag a guy fast?
[07:19] <Bakefy> pretty sweet
[07:19] <HealthyElijah> only thing you will need lots of processor for is video
[07:19] <Bakefy> night all
[07:19] <Rorshach> nickrud:hmm, just tried it and it's still the same, oh well, I'll keep looking.
[07:20] <Jwh424> but nvidia driver will not work on my machine.
[07:20] <HealthyElijah> editing movies and converting movies is when it actually gets used
[07:20] <Jwh424> i am not happy
[07:20] <Jordan_U> overclucker, Behind a proxy / firewall ;)?
[07:20] <rellik__> nickrud, you said to remove glib2.0-0..  but I didn't have that..  is libglib2.0-0 the same?
[07:20] <riuhhhtkittie> someone save me. from myself. :|
[07:20] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: just make sure you get some mega memory
[07:20] <overclucker> nope
[07:20] <kr00l> Anyone know much about ECS EliteGroup motherboards? I usually go with ASUS boards
[07:20] <nickrud> rellik__: yes, I forgot the lib part. Good looking :)
[07:20] <vulcanius> riuhhhtkittie, lol
[07:20] <kr00l> HealthyElijah, is that a brand name?
[07:20] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: i would not buy it
[07:20] <Jordan_U> Jwh424, Sure you don't just need -legacy or -new?
[07:20] <Wolf23> hi
[07:21] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: no, i mean just get GOOD name brand memory, lots of it
[07:21] <Jwh424> I have the 8 series graphics card
[07:21] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: cant go wrong with crucial
[07:21] <Wolf23> can anyone tell me how to install amsn on konsole? thanx
[07:21] <chronos> hi! is this the right place to ask for some support?
[07:21] <Jordan_U> !apt | Wolf23
[07:21] <ubotu> Wolf23: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[07:21] <Jwh424> Jordan: i have the 8 series graphics card
[07:21] <riuhhhtkittie> vulcanius: it's not funny :x
[07:21] <kr00l> HealthyElijah, I can't make up my mind do i do AM2 or 939? Cuz i could save $$ with 939
[07:21] <bruenig> if anyone is interested, here is the dumpfile, it has each distro and their respective desktop below it, obviously not perfect but this is what the script spit out: http://pastebin.ca/708859
[07:21] <h08817> vulcanius, any idea how i can make ubuntu read from the correct cd-rom drive? says insert the ubuntu disc but says in drive /cdrom/ i have two drives yet it doesn't look at either of them but the cd appears on the desktop and i can view the data
[07:21] <emeriste> all of a sudden i have no audio.. any ideas?
[07:22] <kr00l> HealthyElijah, Crucial for me but for every1 else OCZ
[07:22] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: MOBOS: ASUS, ABIT, INTEL, MSI I would feel comofrtable recommending, there may be otehrs
[07:22] <bruenig> note that -- and nbsp mean none
[07:22] <Rageon> how do i stay up to date with ubuntu vunrabilities?
[07:22] <MasterShrek> emeriste, try reinstalling alsa or
[07:22] <MasterShrek> !sound
[07:22] <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
[07:22] <vulcanius> h08817, what is it you're trying to do?
[07:22] <HealthyElijah> MSI is a solid cheapy
[07:22] <kr00l> 939 or AM2?
[07:22] <HealthyElijah> Rageon: it does it for you
[07:22] <MasterShrek> am2
[07:23] <Rageon> howso my friend?
[07:23] <Jordan_U> bruenig, What are the "--" lines?
[07:23] <HealthyElijah> Rageon: at least it notifies you for a default installation, you can change it to do it automatically
[07:23] <riuhhhtkittie> in my quest to get wireless working, i inadvertantly overwrote dapper, killed my GRUB install on my first drive, and rendered myself unable to boot into my fresh feisty. :|  after burning the live cd, only to realize i couldnt use it
[07:23] <nickrud> I'm interested in zonecd, I really gotta check out the &nbsp; desktop :)
[07:23] <h08817> vulcanius, well i need to get ndiswrapper off the cd so i can install my wireless drivers
[07:23] <bruenig> Jordan_U, means none, like when you go to the distrowatch page, where it says Default Desktop, it will say --
[07:23] <h08817> vulcanius, its how i did it before
[07:23] <kr00l> HealthyElijah, 939 or AM2?
[07:23] <HealthyElijah> Rageon: on the top right it will alert you when new updates are avail.
[07:23] <bruenig> nickrud, yeah nbsp and -- mean none
[07:23] <Jwh424> Jordan, one I installed a driver, can I remove it? and how? I want to try the nvidia-new package
[07:23] <sethk> riuhhhtkittie, grub has to run on the boot device.  If the machine's BIOS has a boot menu feature, and sdb appears on the boot menu, then grub can be used from sdb
[07:23] <|MarcoPau|> hello, anybody knows if there's a program which allows to cut mp3's that come with a .cue file (should be the ones of cdrwin)?
[07:23] <iownyou> nickrud : can you give the command to mount the root partition, chroot and edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf vert refresh and horizon sync?
[07:23] <MasterShrek> riuhhhtkittie, what kinda wifi card do you have?
[07:23] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: dunno and it probably does not matter
[07:23] <Rageon> ahh cool so as long as it doesnt show up i should be safe?
[07:23] <Jordan_U> Jwh424, How did you install it?
[07:23] <kr00l> Thanks for the help all!
[07:24] <sethk> riuhhhtkittie, if that's not the case, you can use grub on a CD
[07:24] <HealthyElijah> kr00l: adios
[07:24] <chronos> I am having trouble uninstalling VMWARE player, is anyone else having this problem?
[07:24] <Jwh424> Jordan_U, downloaded fron nvidia website and ran sh on it.
[07:24] <chronos> It breakes its installation package
[07:24] <MasterShrek> chronos, are u installing from apt?
[07:24] <vulcanius> h08817, if it's showing up on your desktop you shouldn't have a problem reading it
[07:29] <murlidhar> iownyou: ain't there a graphical client of xorg.conf for noobies???
[07:29] <iownyou> idk
[07:29] <riuhhhtkittie> sethk: i know i know. and i had it on sdb, and it worked smashingly until the alternate cd had its way with it. and now, i cant get it to install. :|
[07:29] <Jordan_U> Jwh424, I would sudo apt-get remove nvidia then use restricted manager to see which driver it recommends if any.
[07:29] <MasterShrek> prolly not murlidhar
[07:29] <overclucker> Jordan_U, i can go to thosee sites just fine on *ugh* winxp
[07:29] <h08817> vulcanius, well i'll just read how to install a deb file
[07:29] <sethk> riuhhhtkittie, boot the desktop cd and reinstall grub
[07:29] <iownyou> does anybody know how to mount the root partition, chroot and edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf vert refresh and horizon sync?
[07:29] <murlidhar> MasterShrek: i guess it would be better if somebody makes it
[07:29] <Rageon> i just typed aplay -l in terminal and it lists my SB audigy 2 as 3 different devices?
[07:29] <Koldoon> SUP COCKFAGS
[07:29] <vulcanius> h08817, to install a .deb you'll use dpkg -i *.deb from a command line
[07:29] <MasterShrek> h08817, to install a deb package its: dpkg -i package.deb
[07:29] <Jordan_U> overclucker, Can you ping them on Ubuntu?
[07:29] <riuhhhtkittie> sethk: i am using the desktop cd, and  i cannot get it to install.
[07:29] <nickrud> iownyou: I haven't used the livecd in a while, so I'd have to ask you a couple of questions to get in sync. But, its basically:  sudo chroot /media/<root partition> ; nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf ; then delete the refresh rates you have
[07:29] <h08817> ok thanks guys lets see how this works
[07:29] <Jordan_U> riuhhhtkittie, Have you tried the alternate install CD? And are you getting any error?
[07:29] <sethk> riuhhhtkittie, what happens when you try to install?
[07:29] <MasterShrek> murlidhar, its not really necessary, once u set up xorg.conf its good to go, u dont edit it often, so a gui program to edit it would be pretty useless
[07:29] <nickrud> riuhhhtkittie: getting the tty errors?
[07:29] <murlidhar> MasterShrek: i think u are right
[07:29] <cast> iownyou: why bother with chroot? why not just boot at a run level that doesn't start x? or just boot normally and switch out of x [if you can] 
[07:29] <overclucker> Jordan_U, yup, i can ping it
[07:29] <emeriste> I closed pidgin and now the sound works again.
[07:29] <cast> iownyou: there's no reason to chroot if you're just editting a text file
[07:29] <Jordan_U> overclucker, What happens when you wget the main page ( "CD Desktop && wget <URL>" )?
[07:29] <MasterShrek> emeriste, go to tools > preferences > sound tab
[07:29] <murlidhar> MasterShrek: There is a GUI for xorg.cong check the link http://www.deesaster.org/progxorg.php
[07:29] <nickrud> iownyou: cast has a point, I picked up from the other guy, did he give you a reason?
[07:29] <MasterShrek> tell me what its using as Method
[07:29] <iownyou> i cant even boot into ubuntu because my screen is out of frequency
[07:29] <MasterShrek> sweet, but i prefer command line anyway :)
[07:29] <nickrud> iownyou: have you tried the recovery boot option?
[07:29] <sethk> iownyou, boot the cd, mount the root partition, then edit the file
[07:29] <Jordan_U> nickrud, ( Just guessing ) Maybe he meant for him to use dpkg-reconfigure instead?
[07:29] <iownyou> whats that doo
[07:29] <nickrud> Jordan_U: could be, I blindly picked up.
[07:29] <iownyou> how the f do i mount the root partion
[07:29] <chronos> MasterShrek, I used add/remove, Synaptic, apt-get remove, AND tried to use dpkg -r
[07:29] <chronos> MasterShrek, but had no luck... the uninstall script fails returning an error code
[07:29] <overclucker> Jordan_U, it connects, but hangs on HTTP request sent, awaiting response...
[07:29] <riuhhhtkittie> "boot not found or not a block device"
[07:29] <vulcanius> iownyou, dpkg-reconfigure lets you reconfigure an already installed package
[07:29] <iownyou> i have no idea what any of this is
[07:29] <MasterShrek> !staff
[07:29] <ubotu> Hey nalioth, jenda, rob, SportChick, seanw, BearPerson or ompaul! I could use a bit of your time :)
[07:29] <emeriste> well now I can't even start pidgin
[07:30] <emeriste> maybe I need to restart ubuntu.
[07:30] <Flannel> !p[s
[07:30] <Jordan_U> !ops
[07:30] <riuhhhtkittie> this is Koldoon showing the fact that his mother doesnt pay him enough attention, and lets him compute too late. imo.
[07:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about p[s - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:30] <MasterShrek> chronos, whats the error that its giving u
[07:30] <ubotu> Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos, tonyyarusso, PriceChild, Amaranth, jrib, jenda, nixternal, Myrtti, mneptok or Pici
[07:30] <iownyou> i have a advanced install disk
[07:30] <nickrud> iownyou: lets try something that may save a lot of time. reboot, and when the screen says something about grub, if you don't see choices of os's, hit escape.
[07:30] <vulcanius> thanks Madpilot
[07:30] <MasterShrek> thx Madpilot :)
[07:30] <nickrud> iownyou: then, choose recovery from the choices there.
[07:30] <Jwh424> Jordan_U, ok, i've uninstalled it. ran restricted driver, getting "your hardware does not need any restricted drivers"
[07:30] <MenZa> Madpilot: Incredible how persistent some people are.
[07:30] <chronos> MasterShrek, I am having trouble uninstalling VMWARE player, is anyone else having this problem? I used add/remove, Synaptic, apt-get remove, AND even tried to use dpkg -r, but had no luck... the uninstall script fails returning an error code
[07:31] <Jordan_U> Jwh424, No idea then, what is the exact model?
[07:31] <MasterShrek> chronos, yea i know that, whats the error code
[07:31] <iownyou> i have choices of oses
[07:31] <MasterShrek> saying theres an error code doesnt help me
[07:31] <Jwh424> nvidia 8400 series
[07:31] <chronos> im sorry for my last "post" i am haveing a very laggy connection
[07:31] <riuhhhtkittie> unless i am totally delusional and sda's grub was installed on sdb to start with, with sdb's.
[07:31] <MasterShrek> its aight
[07:31] <Jordan_U> chronos, known bug, there is a bug report with a fix
[07:31] <Madpilot> MasterShrek, better to use ops instead of the staff call - yelling for Freenode staff is the last resort, generally.
[07:31] <nickrud> iownyou: then, after you've gotten a line you can type on (and don't hit ctl-d) type    dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg and don't choose a high refresh rate
[07:32] <MasterShrek> sorry Madpilot, ill keep it in mind, ive seen it used b4 thats why i did
[07:32] <MasterShrek> ill use ops from now on :)
[07:32] <iownyou> ok dude what do i do
[07:32] <iownyou> im lost
[07:32] <iownyou> can you talk on aim or something
[07:32] <HealthyElijah> do the xubuntu and kubuntu versions change accordingly with the latest ubuntu?
[07:32] <cast> chronos: probably about 5x more useful to install vmware server rather than player :>
[07:32] <chronos> mastershrek it says something about failing to fire up natd and some dchp
[07:32] <Jordan_U> nickrud, -phigh won't offer him the option of choosing a refresh rate
[07:32] <riuhhhtkittie> HealthyElijah: yes
[07:32] <nickrud> Jordan_U: you sure about that?
[07:32] <Jwh424> Jordan, what is the different between having nv and nvidia?
[07:32] <emeriste> MasterShrek, it's method is 'automatic'
[07:32] <MasterShrek> chronos, open a terminal and type: sudo apt-get remove vmware-player
[07:33] <MasterShrek> emeriste, try switching it to alsa if its available
[07:33] <Jordan_U> nickrud, From my experience the only high priority questions are driver and resolution
[07:33] <chronos> cast, y didn't needed to CREATE the VMs coause i alrready had them created, BUT i nedded to run them
[07:33] <riuhhhtkittie> i'm should boot into feisty#1 and perhaps hose my third ubuntu installation of the night. might as well go for the gold, eh.
[07:33] <emeriste> Yep that was available. I don't know how you can know all these things.
[07:33] <bruenig> ok last time I bother you with this nonsense, nice clean list, readable, got all the -- and nbsp translated to none: http://pastebin.ca/708863 (I have checked all the oddities like metacity and firefox and they are actually listed as the default desktop on these distributions)
[07:33] <MasterShrek> riuhhhtkittie, why do u keep 'hosing' ubuntu installs?
[07:33] <Jordan_U> chronos, can you pastebin the exact error you get from apt or dpkg ?
[07:33] <chronos> Mastershrek, allready done that, apt calls the uninstall script and that fails
[07:34] <kevinO> what is a good CLI based web browser?
[07:34] <nickrud> Jordan_U: didn't even ask for resolution for me this time, flashed the screen (must be gusty) and I conflated refresh/resolution
[07:34] <MasterShrek> yea, but it should be a little more specific on what is wront
[07:34] <MenZa> kevinO: elinks, links2..
[07:34] <chronos> jordan, one moment please
[07:34] <iownyou> nickrud:do you have aim or msn that you can tell me what to do on
[07:34] <kevinO> menza thenks
[07:34] <MenZa> np.
[07:34] <nickrud> iownyou: neither
[07:34] <MasterShrek> emeriste, did that fix ur sound problem?
[07:34] <iownyou> do you have anything
[07:34] <iownyou> besides this
[07:34] <riuhhhtkittie> MasterShrek: it's not intentional, i swear :P I accidentally overwrote Dapper while installing Feisty #2 tho I swear I chose the right partition. and my second Feisty install is fine, albeit totally inaccessible, or so it seems.
[07:34] <nickrud> iownyou: keep getting the live cd, it's a good tool to have and you can get here for a walkthrough
[07:35] <Jordan_U> nickrud, I don't think that resolution is defined at all in the xorg.conf by default in Gutsy ( let's X auto detect it / change it on the fly )
[07:35] <iownyou> wow i just quit the live CD
[07:35] <nickrud> Jordan_U: I had a bit of a sinking stomach when my screen went black :)
[07:35] <riuhhhtkittie> and my first Feisty install is about to fall victim to lions and tigers and a rabid attempt to get wireless working.
[07:36] <MasterShrek> riuhhhtkittie, if u are getting grub to load u should be able to boot to your "second Feisty install"
[07:36] <chronos> jordan_u here u go: chronos@Core:~$ sudo apt-get remove vmware-player

[07:36] <MenZa> Seveas: a mute was sufficient :p
[07:36] <Seveas> oi
[07:36] <MenZa> But morning
[07:36] <iownyou> nickrud:tell me again what i have to do so i can write it down on paper
[07:36] <jimofadel> /leave
[07:36] <MasterShrek> sistom, u need to do ./configure first
[07:37] <Seveas> MenZa, mute needs an op to undo, kick not :)
[07:37] <Jwh424> Jordan_U, you have to install the nvidia driver and config you xorg.conf to point to nvidia.
[07:37] <MenZa> Seveas: truths.
[07:37] <MasterShrek> riuhhhtkittie, what kinda wifi card is it/
[07:37] <Jordan_U> sistom, What are you trying to install?
[07:37] <MasterShrek> ?^
[07:37] <vulcanius> iownyou: did you just install gutsy?
[07:37] <MasterShrek> or not
[07:37] <Jordan_U> Jwh424, Who was that supposed to be for ?:)
[07:37] <iownyou> whats gusty
[07:37] <vulcanius> iownyou which version of ubuntu are you running?
[07:38] <Jordan_U> iownyou, Something you don't want to install yet because it's not finished :)
[07:38] <MenZa> !gutsy | iownyou
[07:38] <ubotu> iownyou: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[07:38] <Jwh424> Jordan_U, will...i can't keep up with the channel, so to the person you was talking to.
[07:38] <iownyou> i have 7.04
[07:38] <Jwh424> will need a drink now
[07:38] <nickrud> iownyou: chroot /media/<rootpartition> ; dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg ; choose your driver and then your resolution. But the aussies will be thick on the ground in a few hours, they can walk you through
[07:38] <vulcanius> ok, you're using Feisty
[07:38] <overclucker> Jordan_U, it connects, but hangs on HTTP request sent, awaiting response...
[07:39] <Jwh424> 12 hours fixing my ubuntu is quite enough for today
[07:39] <Jordan_U> overclucker, No idea, sounds like you installed a filter of some sort
[07:39] <cast> 12? wth was wrong with it?
[07:39] <Jwh424> I've probably hold the reinstall in one day record.
[07:39] <sistom> I am just trying to install something and the make file just calls for a simple gcc command
[07:39] <chronos> okay, im back, sorry for the flood... im quite a n00b at this
[07:39] <sistom> all my shells compile it
[07:39] <MasterShrek> Jwh424, doubtful lol
[07:40] <Jwh424> noob + linux = 12 hours
[07:40] <chronos> here's the paste: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38430/
[07:40] <chronos> thats the correct url?
[07:40] <bullgard4> English help wanted: What does it mean 'to fake a memory map' in the e820.c comment: "If we're lucky and live on a modern system, the setup code will have given us a memory map that we can use to properly set up memory.  If we aren't, we'll fake a memory map. - We check to see that the memory map contains at least 2 elements before we'll use it, because the detection code in setup.S may not be perfect and most every PC known to man has two
[07:40] <iownyou> nickrud so i do all of this in terminal and dont change any of the code
[07:40] <Jordan_U> sistom, What are you trying to compile and why?
[07:40] <Jwh424> When something goes wrong, I would reinstall it.
[07:40] <Jordan_U> sistom, Almost everything is available in the repositories
[07:41] <nickrud> iownyou: yes, the dpkg-reconfigure writes it for you
[07:41] <overclucker> Jordan_U, no filter, it happens no matter what distro i use, and theres nothing between me and wan
[07:41] <sistom> I am just trying to compile a .c script my buddy wrote
[07:41] <MasterShrek> chronos, try this: sudo /etc/init.d/vmware stop
[07:41] <MasterShrek> then try to uninstall
[07:41] <sistom> can I not just use gcc -o file.c file?
[07:41] <vulcanius> bullgard4, if you don't know you really should not be touching it
[07:41] <MasterShrek> yea sistom but it shold be gcc -o file file.c
[07:42] <Jordan_U> overclucker, Then you have encountered the impossible, I encounter the impossible every day with a router ( not card, but router, as in gateway ) that refuses to work with any OSx machine, but works with any other OS
[07:43] <Jordan_U> overclucker, I also encountered it when I booted a 64 bit OS on 32 bit hardware once :)
[07:43] <vulcanius> bullgard4, what is it you are trying to do?
[07:43] <Jwh424> There should be a warning on the 64bit version, flash player will not work.
[07:43] <h08817> hmm fiesty isn't seeing my jump drive
[07:43] <Jwh424> on this version

[07:43] <chronos> Mastershrek, i am trying that, thanks
[07:43] <sistom> it is giving me all these errors saying all of these .h files are missing
[07:43] <guhhh> does anyone knows a good translator as babylon?
[07:43] <sistom> wtf?
[07:43] <overclucker> Jordan_U, i hate the impossible, it scares me
[07:43] <chronos> mastershrek, ill report in a minute
[07:44] <MasterShrek> ok chronos
[07:44] <Jordan_U> overclucker, It's surprisingly common in IT unfortunately ;)
[07:44] <phpcurious> hi, can anybody tell me why beryl isn't running on my linux ?
[07:44] <cast> phpcurious: the same reason xen isn't.
[07:44] <phpcurious> i have GeForce 6200, ubuntu Feisty Fawn running on VMWare
[07:45] <vulcanius> Jwh424, if your not doing alot of number crunching you might as well install the i386 version (32bit) of Ubuntu as well
[07:45] <Jordan_U> phpcurious, VMware has no 3D acceleration
[07:45] <nickrud> phpcurious: there you are, vmware driver doesn't do 3d
[07:45] <evan_> vmware doesnt support 3d
[07:45] <evan_> wow im slow
[07:45] <phpcurious> that I didn't know...:D
[07:45] <Jordan_U> phpcurious, You can't do Aero from virtualized windows either
[07:45] <nickrud> slower than me :)
[07:45] <riotkittie> yay. 802.11 wlan card support not enabled in kernel. err. does this mean i'm going to have to ... compile my own kernel?
[07:46] <phpcurious> im not very sure if there is a hack
[07:46] <Jordan_U> phpcurious, There is not
[07:46] <Jwh424> vulcanius, yeah, there should be a warning, I've spent on that time configuring it and I couldn't get flash player to work...gee!
[07:46] <chronos> mastershrek, i get the exact same error
[07:46] <vulcanius> riotkittie, lol, it's not as bad as it sounds
[07:46] <Jwh424> vulcanius, i have the 32 bit installed on my system
[07:46] <overclucker> Jordan_U, then i'll continue vcn'ing my winbox for this single reason
[07:46] <nickrud> riotkittie: once you've compiled a kernel, no one can call you noob again :)
[07:47] <overclucker> vnc^
[07:47] <riotkittie> i've compiled kernels
[07:47] <John_Priest> i've compiled a kernel
[07:47] <phpcurious> i can't watch the video (company firewall) but care to take a look at this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hqx271ZuLs
[07:47] <John_Priest> but i still call my self noob :-p
[07:47] <chronos> mastershrek, when i try to stop the service i get the following error:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38431/
[07:47] <riotkittie> i just havent done it since slackware and a 366mHz with 192mb ram. ah, the good old days. :|
[07:48] <Jordan_U> i've assembled a kernel, for a Robot. I win ( not as impressive as it sounds at all :)
[07:48] <John_Priest> slackware
[07:48] <riotkittie> on the bright side, this shouldn't take decades. eons. eternities.
[07:48] <John_Priest> god that bring back memorys
[07:48] <nickrud> I quit at 2.6.3, it got too iffy without a stable stable
[07:48] <fivetwentysix> Im going to switch from 64-bit Ubuntu to 32-bit, will I need to format my partition?
[07:48] <cast> fivetwentysix: nope.
[07:48] <fivetwentysix> Would it be better?
[07:48] <Jwh424> I had nvidia drivers installed and working, my beryl was configured. Resolution was just right. Then I went to youtube, oh boy!
[07:49] <MasterShrek> chronos: sudo chmod 644 /etc/init.d/vmware-player and reboot, then try to uninstall
[07:49] <GNine> but i certainly didnt see you helping me with my acpi issue either.. too confusing for more people here... all the compilers who would have probable opt to recompile a kernel than to look for a more elegant and uncomplicated solution
[07:49] <Jordan_U> Jwh424, You saw the instructions I linked too right?
[07:49] <John_Priest> lot of comcast users today
[07:49] <Jwh424> flash not supported by intel2duo
[07:49] <cast> fivetwentysix: you will have to remove all the 64bit libraries/binaries however...which is an rm -fr operation rather than a 'format' one, [i'm not entirely sure what format means, mkfs?] . just mkfs it, itll be quickest
[07:49] <fivetwentysix> And how should I switch from 64bit to 32bit? Fresh install?
[07:49] <overclucker> anyone here usse conky?
[07:50] <murlidhar> Jwh424: that is a news to me!!!!!
[07:50] <Jordan_U> !flash64 | Jwh424
[07:50] <ubotu> Jwh424: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[07:50] <John_Priest> i use conky :-p
[07:50] <Jordan_U> Jwh424, AMD64 == Intel64 == core2duo
[07:50] <chronos> thanks mastershrek, will try that.
[07:50] <Jwh424> oh, :'(
[07:51] <John_Priest> overclucker, conky is awesome ^^
[07:51] <Jwh424> now I have to reinstall the 64bit version again.
[07:51] <fivetwentysix> cast would it be safer just to format?
[07:51] <Jordan_U> Jwh424, No you don't, you can still use 32 bit
[07:51] <cast> fivetwentysix: just do a fresh install :)
[07:51] <overclucker> John_Priest, i kno, did you mak your own .conkyrc?
[07:51] <fivetwentysix> ok
[07:51] <Jwh424> I can't configure my nvidia driver on the 32 bit.
[07:51] <Jordan_U> Jwh424, And probably should, just wanted you to know that it was in fact possible
[07:51] <phpcurious> okay, i am so hard-headed not to listen to the gurus... VMWare doesn't support 3D acceleration ... http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070420232326AAZhnxO
[07:51] <John_Priest> yup i did
[07:51] <Jwh424> so that I can run beryl
[07:52] <davubuntu> Hey does anyone know about this bug in kontact ( http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=140041 ) that causes duplicate entries in the todo list... and if so does anyone know how to fix it in gnome?
[07:52] <John_Priest> why you ask?
[07:52] <vulcanius> phpcurious, sometimes you just have to learn the hard way ;)
[07:53] <murlidhar> huh just a offline question how to register in this channel???
[07:53] <overclucker> John_Priest, you know any good conkyrc network monitoring scripts?
[07:53] <Jwh424> Jordan: For some reason, the nvidia 64bit driver versions work great with the 64bit ubuntu.
[07:53] <vulcanius> davubuntu, on that same page check out the last comment
[07:53] <GNine> sometimes you just have to read b4 execute
[07:53] <John_Priest> what do you mean?
[07:53] <h08817> My flash drive doesn't appear in Computer
[07:53] <h08817> How can I access it?
[07:53] <overclucker> John_Priest, to monitor incomeing network traffic
[07:53] <phpcurious> vulcanius: i just wanted to see it for myself that I am sure that I am wrong about making beryl work in VMWare.... :S
[07:54] <cast> h08817: plug it in, paste the output of dmesg.
[07:54] <Jordan_U> davubuntu, What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[07:54] <John_Priest> give me a sec
[07:54] <vulcanius> h08817, easiest way would probably be to unplug it and plug it back in
[07:54] <h08817> vulcanius, i have 100times
[07:54] <davubuntu> Jordan_U: feisty
[07:54] <HealthyElijah> do any of you use kubuntu?
[07:54] <h08817> vulcanius, it blinks looks all pretty and thats it
[07:54] <the9a3eedi> Question: I got a laptop here. Asus G1S. I'm desperate to install an easy to use linux distro, like ubuntu. But I'm waiting for 7.10, and it feels like forever till 7.10 comes :S .. so I was thinking of installing Tribe 5, then waiting for the stable release, and then updating to the stable release. Is it possible to do that? would you recommend me to? Currently my Vista install is b0rked, and I got a sabayon
[07:54] <the9a3eedi> install, which is slowly getting b0rked as well as the package manager is in a bad unexplainable state, as well as a lot of packages like pidgin, which makes me look for a nice easy to use distro.
[07:54] <vulcanius> h08817, in a terminal do "dmesg | grep -i scsi" and see what comes up
[07:55] <davubuntu> vulcanius: I see it but I can't get to that menu as I am not running kde
[07:55] <vulcanius> davubuntu, running gnome?
[07:55] <HealthyElijah> the9a3eedi: are u advanced user?
[07:55] <h08817> vulcanius, says scsi subsystem initialized
[07:55] <davubuntu> vulcanius: yes. standard ubuntu feisty
[07:55] <HealthyElijah> the9a3eedi: how old is laptop?
[07:55] <the9a3eedi> well.. not really advanced, but not really a beginner either.
[07:55] <John_Priest> overclucker, i can show you my config if you want
[07:56] <overclucker> John_Priest, alright
[07:56] <GNine> dont sound like it
[07:56] <h08817> vulcanius, it sees my other hd and my cd drom drives
[07:56] <cast> the9a3eedi: could install 7.10 now.
[07:56] <bullgard4> English help wanted: What does it mean 'to fake a memory map' in the e820.c comment: "If we're lucky and live on a modern system, the setup code will have given us a memory map that we can use to properly set up memory.

[07:56] <GNine> you will fail
[07:56] <HealthyElijah> Gmail rules
[07:56] <the9a3eedi> HealthyElijah: it's quite new. too new in fact. to the point where the liveCD's wont boot off it properly unless I specify special parameters and other stuff

[07:56] <Jordan_U> davubuntu, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop temporarily and then "sudo apt-get autoremove kubuntu-desktop" later ( note before doing this test run "sudo apt-get autoremove now to make sure there is nothing it wants to remove that you want ) ?

[07:56] <trogdor> bullgard4: where is that quote from?
[07:56] <the9a3eedi> cast: but is it recommended?
[07:57] <Jordan_U> davubuntu, There is probably a more official way to do it, but that should work ;)
[07:57] <vulcanius> davubuntu, can't really blame you there
[07:57] <GNine> coming from vista .. ha... you wont make it ...
[07:57] <the9a3eedi> cast: I mean, what are the bad things about it
[07:57] <HealthyElijah> the9a3eedi: unstability
[07:57] <bullgard4> trogdor: As I said, from the e820.c file
[07:57] <trogdor> bullgard4: which is source for what?
[07:57] <davubuntu> vulcanius: Hmm. should I just install kde then? I was planning on it anyway.
[07:57] <vulcanius> trogdor, kernel
[07:58] <HealthyElijah> this is one guys story, comments are interesting http://www.osnews.com/story.php/18662/Preview-Ubuntu-Gutsy-Gibbon-GNOME-2.20
[07:58] <the9a3eedi> HealthyElijah: how unstable is it? Windows 95 unstable? or..?
[07:58] <vulcanius> davubuntu, if your goign to use it you might as well i suppose
[07:58] <trogdor> davubuntu: have you tried thunderbird?
[07:58] <bullgard4> trogdor: /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/arch/i386/kernel/e820.c
[07:58] <Jwh424> boy, boy, boy
[07:58] <HealthyElijah> i dunno, i am waiting until official release because i am not advanced
[07:58] <GNine> linux is not windows.. you still keep comparing OS .. you will fail..
[07:58] <trogdor> davubuntu: installing kubuntu-desktop puts too much extra junk on there just apt-get install kontact should do
[07:58] <cast> the9a3eedi: since its about to be released one would think it would be usable. if its not then the 7.10 release will be delayed a bit from the estimated october
[07:59] <davubuntu> trogdor: sorry you don't understand my problem.
[07:59] <cast> unless ubuntu ships on the deadline rather than when its ready, am not sure.
[07:59] <trogdor> davubuntu: yeah sorry I just joined channel
[07:59] <HealthyElijah> the9a3eedi: wouldnt hurt to try, jsut do a fresh install
[07:59] <Jordan_U> the9a3eedi, If you know what you are doing then what breaks ( and something will almost certainly break at some point ) will be easily fixable in general... but since you are asking you probably don't know enough about dpkg and the like to get yourself out of problems ;)
[07:59] <vulcanius> bullgard4, http://www.cpqlinux.com/memory.html
[07:59] <bullgard4> trogdor: e820 is a BIOS routine that returns the memory map.
[07:59] <HealthyElijah> if it is new laptop isnt kubunut better though?
[08:00] <HealthyElijah> kubunut
[08:00] <HealthyElijah> kubuntu
[08:00] <cast> HealthyElijah: why would KDE make any difference?
[08:00] <HealthyElijah> noob here
[08:00] <davubuntu> trogdor: I already have kontact. And I really want it over thunderbird, evolution etc. There is a bug in it that's all. I need to get into KDE to fix it... I think. I'm sure there is another way using the terminal
[08:00] <the9a3eedi> Jordan_U: Actually, I got around 4-6 months of experience with ubuntu, so I know what there is to know
[08:00] <GNine> am not as elocuent as you
[08:00] <iownyou> hello
[08:00] <the9a3eedi> I've been using 6.10, then upgraded to 7.04
[08:01] <HealthyElijah> I like the fact that compiz is included and i can put it on my friends computers with little trouble
[08:01] <HealthyElijah> compiz fusion i mean
[08:02] <HealthyElijah> when it is ready of course
[08:02] <HealthyElijah> at least as a live cd to get them interested
[08:02] <iownyou> can somebody help me
[08:02] <trogdor> HealthyElijah: 7.10 containts fusion the one on 7.04 is regular
[08:02] <HealthyElijah> trogdor: correct
[08:02] <trogdor> running that from livecd would suck on performance
[08:02] <Jordan_U> the9a3eedi, You can try it, but I wouldn't recommend it unless it's not your main system ( i.e. you don't depend on it in any way ). And there is a good chance nobody will help you if you have a problem with Gutsy, so know what you are getting into
[08:02] <HealthyElijah> Fusion rocks da house, only reason I ever tried linux in the first place
[08:03] <Jordan_U> the9a3eedi, That said... Alpha testing can be fun :)
[08:03] <HealthyElijah> trogdor: live cd worked nicely on my anciant 1.8 amd athlon
[08:03] <HealthyElijah> that was feisty
[08:03] <HealthyElijah> but with fusino maybe you are right
[08:03] <HealthyElijah> fusion/gutsy
[08:04] <HealthyElijah> compiz fusion will convert many peeps!
[08:04] <iownyou> hello can anybody help me
[08:04] <the9a3eedi> Jordan_U: hmmm.. you have a point there. I am quite dependant on this laptop. It's my primary PC after all.. I remember installing 6.10, then when 7.04 came out, upgrading it to 7.04 was really painful, and so I didn't want to install 7.04 on this laptop because I cant afford the cost of upgrading to a newer version
[08:04] <HealthyElijah> iownyou needs help mounting
[08:04] <Jwh424> god, I just want ubuntu running with beryl. Without any limitations such as not having flash player plugin. thank you
[08:04] <bullgard4> vulcanius: The website you are hinting at merely repeats the source code comment. But my question was for a help in the English language. What does it mean to 'fake' a memory map?
[08:05] <HealthyElijah> Jwh424: r u just doing this for fun? Just get gutsy then
[08:05] <cast> Jwh424: flash is generally the issue. flash sucks.
[08:05] <the9a3eedi> what does flash have anything to do with beryl o.O
[08:05] <HealthyElijah> the9a3eedi: just make another partition
[08:05] <cast> fucked if i know. i can't run flash at all :)
[08:05] <Jordan_U> the9a3eedi, Stick to playing with the LiveCD / Virtual machine then, or just wait a few weeks :)
[08:05] <HealthyElijah> the9a3eedi: good question
[08:05] <Rageon> if my motherboard only supports 667mhz RAM can i put 800mhz ram in it?
[08:06] <Tom47> !language > cast
[08:06] <Jwh424> I am about to reinstall the 64 bit version for the 5th time today.
[08:06] <HealthyElijah> Rageon: depends
[08:06] <Rageon> on
[08:06] <vulcanius> bullgard4, off the top of my head i would guess it means to fake having allocated memory
[08:06] <Montaro> Rageon: did you read waht you typed?
[08:06] <iownyou> hello can anybody help me
[08:06] <Rageon> ahuh
[08:06] <iownyou> hello can anybody help me
[08:06] <Rageon> im assuming the ram would just run slower
[08:06] <MasterShrek> !ask
[08:06] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:07] <HealthyElijah> iownyou: just type your question and copy it to clipboard, post it every now and then, you will get some bites
[08:07] <bullgard4> vulcanius: I do not understand your answer. Say it in other words, please.
[08:07] <Jordan_U> Rageon, Maybe a question better for #hardware
[08:07] <HealthyElijah> Rageon: some ram is backwards compatible
[08:07] <Tom47> bullgard4: "fake" in this context means to imitate, achieve the same effect as
[08:07] <HealthyElijah> Rageon: jordan has good advice
[08:07] <Rageon> he in hardware?
[08:08] <the9a3eedi> Jordan_U: Virtual machine costs battery power. LiveCD also costs battery power, and time. Time and stability is essential, as well as battery life, when you depend on your laptop in order to type lecture notes on in uni
[08:08] <chronos> Thanks so much mastershrek! I just got out of a dacade of using MSwindows and refused to belive that ain a linux installation a reboot would solve anything :-p... It seems sometimes it is inevitable :-)
[08:08] <bullgard4> Tom47: I will think about your answer.
[08:08] <Jordan_U> iownyou, And "can anybody help me" is not an actual question ;)
[08:08] <HealthyElijah> the9a3eedi: what about another partition to try it out?
[08:08] <MasterShrek> chronos, u didnt have to totally reboot, switching runlevels would have worked, but reboot is easy
[08:08] <pakora> hello
[08:08] <Jordan_U> the9a3eedi, Then you certainly can't be messing with Gutsy :)
[08:08] <pakora> im trying to format my hard drive but i am unable to
[08:08] <strike> hi, how do I add external USB mouse on feisty? I am on lenovo R60
[08:09] <iownyou> ok well when i start up ubuntu and  ubuntu is loading (the orange bar) then all of a sudden after that it goes blank screen then my screen goes out of frequency so my question is how to fix that NOTE:i used the advanced text based install cd for ubuntu
[08:09] <MasterShrek> strike, plug it in
[08:09] <Jordan_U> strike, Plug it in
[08:09] <pakora> i want to reinstall windows and set up dual booting but ubuntu doesnt let the cd rom boot
[08:09] <OceanSpray> 1063 people
[08:09] <strike> I can see it being detected in dmesg
[08:09] <OceanSpray> omg
[08:09] <the9a3eedi> HealthyElijah: I dont have empty space to make a new partition. Resizing a partition is kinda discouraging to me, because that is exactly what ruined my Vista install
[08:09] <MasterShrek> pakora, set it in your bios to boot from cdrom
[08:09] <J-_> !install > pakora
[08:09] <Jordan_U> pakora, Ubuntu cannot refuse to let a CD boot
[08:09] <strike> MasterShrek: I did
[08:09] <Jwh424> How can I restore my windows MBR
[08:09] <strike> its is not working
[08:09] <OceanSpray> Jwh424, what windows?
[08:09] <pakora> i did set it to boot from cd
[08:09] <HealthyElijah> the9a3eedi: gotcha, dont mess with it right now
[08:09] <chronos> MasterShrekm could you please explain me what exactly was the objective of rebooting? why did that solve the problem?
[08:10] <HealthyElijah> the9a3eedi: tempting but don't
[08:10] <Jordan_U> pakora, That is all in BIOS and completely separate from anything Ubuntu can control
[08:10] <Jwh424>  I retiring from linux until need weekend
[08:10] <OceanSpray> If vista, just pop in the vista CD and use the restore
[08:10] <bullgard4> Tom47: Ah, yes, now I understand this source code comment. --  Thank you very much for explaining.
[08:10] <Jowi> Jwh424, you overwrite it with windows bootloader (see ##windows)
[08:10] <the9a3eedi> HealthyElijah and Jordan_U: Thanks a lot :) I'll try to stick to this b0rked, but otherwise functional Sabayon install for now, until 7.10 comes out
[08:10] <HealthyElijah> goodnight
[08:10] <OceanSpray> it'll automatically install a MBR at the front of the ntfs partition.
[08:10] <iownyou> ok well when i start up ubuntu and  ubuntu is loading (the orange bar) then all of a sudden after that it goes blank screen then my screen goes out of frequency so my question is how to fix that NOTE:i used the advanced text based install cd for ubuntu
[08:10] <HealthyElijah> the9a3eedi: right on
[08:11] <MasterShrek> chronos, the file /etc/init.d/vmware-player is an init script that is loaded at boot, by changing the mod to 644 it makes it not executable, so when u reboot, the script is not run, that was your problem before
[08:11] <Jwh424> OceanSpray, thanks royal windows user
[08:11] <OceanSpray> I AM NO KING
[08:11] <strike> MasterShrek: it is not working, though my system has detected it (dmesg shows it)
[08:11] <bob__> c.net
[08:11] <vulcanius> bullgard4, do you understand what e820.c does?
[08:11] <OceanSpray> also, iownyou, use punctuation please.
[08:11] <Jowi> strike, usb mice and keyboards are supposed to "Just Work (tm)". plug in - that's it. if it does not work try a different usb port
[08:11] <bullgard4> vulcanius: Yes I do.
[08:12] <iownyou> Why oceanspray im tired and i dont feel like it =] 
[08:12] <chronos> nice thinking MasterShrek. Thank you a lot!
[08:12] <Jordan_U> iownyou, First try pressing ctrl+alt+F1 and see if that brings you to a terminal
[08:12] <Jwh424> I hate how the new computers don't give you the cd to the operating system.
[08:12] <strike> Jowi: it isn't working on a different USB port as well
[08:12] <`Cube> where can I set that XML files should open with GEDIT not firefox?
[08:13] <Jowi> strike, is the mouse working on another computer (or with the Ubuntu live CD?)
[08:13] <iownyou> Jordan_U when do i press this
[08:13] <Jordan_U> `Cube, Right click an XML file and go to properties and Open WIth
[08:13] <strike> Jowi: yes.. it works on other computers
[08:13] <Tom47> `Cube: right click on an xml file, choose properties
[08:13] <`Cube> ok thanks!
[08:13] <iownyou> Jordan_U when do i press this
[08:14] <`Cube> aaaah, it works I love yoU!
[08:14] <Jordan_U> iownyou, after you hear the login screen sound ( the drumbs ) / the monitor gets out of range
, you can click on right mouse button and search out what you want to start
[08:14] <strike> Jowi: here is my dmesg output http://pastebin.ca/708886
[08:14] <ePax> Is there some software like vmware for ubuntu? i mean free software?
[08:14] <Jordan_U> !repeat | iownyou
[08:14] <ubotu> iownyou: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[08:14] <gpm> ePax: qemu
[08:14] <Jwh424> how can I restore windows mbr without the vista cd?
[08:14] <ePax> gmp thnx
[08:14] <Jordan_U> ePax, Virtual BOx
[08:14] <Jowi> Jwh424, I haven't used Win for quite some time but if I remember correctly there should be a recovery console to boot from (in XP it's F8 at boot *I think*) then you have a command "fixmbr" or something...
, this application would be started then with this file
[08:14] <robert11> iownyou  #sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:14] <AaronMT> Can someone recommend a great NNTP newsreader program other than Pan?
[08:14] <Jowi> Jwh424, but a better channel to ask is in ##windows
[08:15] <iownyou> sorry anyways i dont hear drums when it goes out of range
[08:15] <Jordan_U> ePax, And if you don't mean free as in libre ( Free ) then Vmware :)
[08:15] <robert11> ownyou : #http://www.hotubuntunews.com/blog_03.shtml
[08:15] <robert11> it is fairly easy to fix
[08:15] <Jordan_U> iownyou, Then just any time after it goes out of range
[08:16] <Tom47> AAronMT liferea works for me
[08:16] <vulcanius> bullgard4, i'm not going to explain with much detail. essentially most modern systems have two section of memory from 0 to 640k and then from 1mb onward.
[08:16] <iownyou> robert11: do i keep the # before the link
[08:16] <Jowi> strike, are the disconnect message from when you have remove the mouse or did it disconnect by itself?
[08:16] <iownyou> and Jordan_U k
[08:16] <bullgard4> vulcanius: Yes I know.
[08:16] <pakora> i just tried to run a boot cd it doesnt work
[08:16] <vulcanius> bullgard4, e820.c checks to see if the PC has these two sections.  if it doesn't it fakes it
[08:16] <pakora> GRUB loads and doesnt let the cd boot
[08:17] <vulcanius> bullgard4, if you knew, you wouldn't be asking these questions
[08:17] <strike> Jowi: nope, I did, I changed the USB port
[08:17] <pakora> i went into my bios and my cdrom is set as the first priority to boot
[08:17] <pakora> and it doesnt work
[08:17] <ePax> Jordan_U: yes i ment free like that... so vmware is free software?
[08:17] <Jordan_U> pakora, The LiveCD does not use GRUB, do you mean that you see the isolinux menu with boot options like install or memtest?
[08:17] <phpcurious> hey, i was browsing this man page and i want to print it out... how do i do that?
[08:17] <pakora> i installed ubuntu
[08:17] <phpcurious> can anybody teach me how to print a man page
[08:17] <pakora> it loads grub
[08:18] <bullgard4> vulcanius: You are wrong. My mother's language is not English. So I did not understand that comment. But I know what e820 does.
[08:18] <pakora> and then loads ubunto
[08:18] <Jordan_U> ePax, Vmware does not cost any money but it is proprietary
[08:18] <pakora> i want to install windows and then dual boot
[08:18] <pakora> mycomputer wont load the cd rom because grub loads
[08:18] <pakora> my bios is set to load from the cdrom and it still doesnt work
[08:18] <Tom47> pakor one suspects yr cd rom has ceased to be bootable then
[08:18] <vulcanius> bullgard4, you've completely lost me. i have no idea what your on about now
[08:19] <Jordan_U> pakora, That is a problem with your CDROM drive, BIOS or windows, has nothing to do with Ubuntu
[08:19] <pakora> i hear my cd rom drive spin up wheni start the computer
[08:19] <Jowi> strike, can you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[08:19] <Jowi> !pastebin | strike
[08:19] <trogdor> ePax: certain parts of vmware do cost money, I usually use virtualbox and wine for those purposes
[08:19] <ubotu> strike: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:19] <pakora> you are right
[08:19] <pakora> im unable to mount the cd rom drive
[08:19] <pakora> hmmm
[08:20] <ePax> Oki.
[08:20] <pakora> oh well ubuntu isnt so bad then
[08:20] <Whacked> anyone know a good tutorial/howto for setting up pop3/smtp/dns on ubuntu?
[08:20] <pakora> i'll just live here
[08:20] <pakora> :)
[08:20] <drgeb> I am trying to ssh to my server  on the network but am unable to do so I tried runnning the sshd in debug mode but still no connection. What can be blocking this ? how do I knwo if I have somesort of firewall running ?
[08:20] <trogdor> pakora: does it mount it when you reboot? might be fstab misconfiguration
[08:20] <pakora> no, it has never mounted
[08:20] <Jordan_U> vulcanius, I think that he means that he knows what e820 but does not know English well enough to understand the comments in the source
[08:20] <Jowi> !postfix | Whacked
[08:20] <ubotu> Whacked: postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix or here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[08:20] <AaronMT> Can someone recommend a great NNTP binary newsreader program other than Pan?
[08:20] <Jordan_U> vulcanius, * what e820 does
[08:21] <Whacked> ubotu: thanks
[08:21] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[08:21] <trogdor> Jordan_U: memory mapping stuff
[08:21] <vulcanius> Jordan_U, .... just doesn't make sense to me. he asked for an English answer....
[08:21] <Jordan_U> trogdor, I was not asking
[08:21] <AaronMT> !nntp
[08:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nntp - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:21] <AaronMT> !newsgroup
[08:21] <ubotu> There are Ubuntu newsgroups via NNTP at news.gmane.org
[08:22] <trogdor> how can I read ubotu's database?
[08:22] <vulcanius> Jordan_U, there is absolutely no way i can explain what it means if he cant understand english, lol
[08:22] <Jordan_U> vulcanius, Yes, he knows English, he is taking to you now, he just wants it rephrased / clarified / to be able to talk to someone who understands that comment and who he can ask to rephrase any answer they give / discuss further
[08:22] <bullgard4> vulcanius: My problem was about an English word. Thanks to Tom47 it has been solved. So, now, there is no problem any longer.
[08:22] <Jordan_U> vulcanius, Just because he knows English does not mean he understands every sentence he reads.
[08:23] <strike> Jowi: here is my xorg.conf file http://pastebin.ca/708896
[08:23] <vulcanius> so what was the word?
[08:23] <trogdor> bullgard4: could try dictionary or thesaurus next time ya know
[08:23] <Jordan_U> vulcanius, I know German but I have asked people to clarify german sentences, and have done so without using any English
[08:23] <strike> Jowi: ok.. got it.. I need to add another section there it seems
 #ubuntu.de
[08:23] <trogdor> bullgard4: some really nice ones in repository is what I mean
[08:23] <strike> Jowi: for external mouse
[08:23] <brownie17> can anyone tell me if it's possible to use ffmpeg to add subtitles to a video file?
[08:23] <Jordan_U> David|V, No
[08:24] <bullgard4> trogdor: You may laugh but I have looked up a dictionary and did googling before I posted my question here.
[08:24] <Jordan_U> bullgard4, I feel sorry for you that these people don't understand
[08:25] <Jowi> strike, I just double checked the config and, no, you shouldn't have to. your mouse points to /dev/input/mice which all plugged in mice should use. if it would have pointed to a serial device then, yes you would have had to add a new section.... I have no idea what's going on. have you tried to boot the computer with the mouse plugged in?
[08:25] <vulcanius> heh, i feel like such an evil bad guy now, muahahaha
[08:25] <trogdor> bullgard4: that is why I recommended a thesaurus, its hard to find one but they're usually better than a dictionary
[08:25] <Jordan_U> bullgard4, And that they are mocking you for a perfectly reasonable question
[08:25] <trogdor> Jordan_U: am not
[08:25] <strike> Jowi: no, I did not try booting it with mouse plugged in
[08:25] <vulcanius> Jordan_U, noone was mocking him
[08:26] <Jordan_U> trogdor, That won't help in most cases for understanding a sentence in context in a language that you are not completely fluent in
[08:26] <Jordan_U> vulcanius, No, it just seemed like trogdor was with his comment about using a dictionary
[08:26] <strike> Jowi: going to reboot with mouse plugged in
[08:26] <Jowi> strike, unless there is some touchpad setting for laptops I'm not aware of, several mices should be able to be plugged in at the same time...
[08:27] <Jordan_U> trogdor, He understands the definition of every word in the sentence, he does not know what the sentence as a whole means
[08:27] <strike> Jowi: yes, same thing is working on my other lappy
[08:27] <brownie17> can anyone tell me if it's possible to use ffmpeg to actually code the subtitles into the video file, so they are stuck in there? i converted a video using thinliquidfilm for my ipod, went to watch it and realised it was in french or something
[08:27] <Whacked> argg... is there anything easier to set up than postfix for pop3/smtp... I am completely lost here
[08:27] <haru> since the last update to fusion, whenever i run it it greatly slows down the window response
[08:27] <haru> how do i fix it
[08:27] <Jowi> strike, also an Ubuntu system?
[08:27] <strike> Jowi: nope, its a debian system
[08:27] <trogdor> Jordan_U: eh I agree some of those remarks in source code are a bit wordy without meaning
[08:27] <Jowi> strike, good enough ;)
[08:28] <strike> Jowi: see you in some more time.. rebooting
[08:28] <vulcanius> Jordan_U, as much as I'd like to explain in detail what happens there, there really is not a way to put hte process in simple enough terms
[08:28] <Jowi> strike, does it also use a synaptics touchpad or is it a stationary PC?
[08:28] <trogdor> haru: try running compiz --replace in a terminal and checking for errors then submit some logs we can view
[08:29] <Jordan_U> vulcanius, Then don't use simple terms just rephrase it and see if he understands, remember that he might well know more about it then you do ( I don't know if that is true or not ) and just does not understand the wording of the one sentence he pasted
[08:29] <trogdor> haru: just go about your normal tasks and if it spews out odd stuff make a note of it
[08:29] <haru> trogdor, the terminal doesnt update when i run compiz- -replace
[08:29] <Esteth> Whenever i launch firefox, it immediately segfaults. This has been happening for a few days know. It works again after i reinstall through synaptic, but not long after, it re-"corrupts" itself. what could be causing this?
[08:29] <haru> trogdor, it becomes slow as soon as i load it
[08:29] <robert11> iownyou . no
[08:29] <Kr4t06> I have Xubuntu Feisty installed on my laptop. For some reason, I can't get sound to work.
[08:29] <trogdor> haru: well try man compiz see if it has any debug options to force it to output to terminal
[08:30] <vulcanius> Jordan_U, well, to be honest i can think of a dozen places he would have been better off asking that question
[08:30] <Tom47> Jordan_U: vulcaniushe simply did not understand the usage of the word "fake" in that context which is a more or less nerd use of a more general usage word
[08:30] <Jordan_U> vulcanius, Then suggest them :) Just help the guy out however you can :)
[08:30] <vulcanius> i did ;)
[08:31] <Jordan_U> Tom47, Did you help him?
[08:31] <Tom47> yes

[08:36] <] Dante[> I have a question, i was just trying to install Ubuntu, and I think my disk got a damage or something because I couldn't complete the installation. The problem is that now i want to use the same partitions it created to try to install there, again, ubuntu. How can I do this?
[08:36] <delton> nty
[08:37] <Esteth> Is pidgin in the feisty repo now?
[08:37] <badraa> hello
[08:37] <delton> I dont think anyone has ever successfully installed fiesty 64 bit
[08:37] <MasterShrek> delton, i am running it right now
[08:37] <MasterShrek> runs great
[08:37] <Jwh424> how can I uninstall ubuntu on a daul boot machine without making it non-bootable.
[08:37] <Jowi> Esteth, no, it is still called gaim there.
[08:37] <delton> livecd crashes everyone that's tried it
[08:38] <delton> that i know, which is 4 people
[08:38] <delton> and ive tried 2 pc's
[08:38] <MasterShrek> delton, mine runs perfectly fine, install was a breeze, everythings great
[08:38] <Esteth> Jowi: Is it actually pidgin though, or still gaim?
[08:38] <delton> ok
[08:38] <Jowi> Esteth, that I don't know.
[08:38] <gpm> it's pidging
[08:38] <gpm> it's pidgin
[08:38] <gpm> it was gaim
[08:38] <gpm> but there were legal issuers
[08:38] <gpm> issues
[08:38] <gpm> jeez
[08:39] <Esteth> Ah, thanks. That would have saved me lots of effort with installing from source.
[08:39] <gpm> well it's still gaim in feisty iirc
[08:39] <MasterShrek> Esteth, u need to add a repo
[08:39] <Jowi> Jwh424, see last question. install the windows boot loader then format/delete the ubuntu partitions from another operating system.
[08:39] <gpm> but gusty's with the newer version, after the name change
[08:39] <MasterShrek> lemme find it for u
[08:39] <haru> compiz keeps giving me A handler is already registered for the path starting with path[0]  = "org". anyone know a fix
[08:39] <odeena> hi
[08:40] <Esteth> gpm: I suspected so. Does anyone know the date for gutsy?
[08:40] <haru> 7.10 ?
[08:40] <gpm> october
[08:40] <Jowi> Jwh424, you don't "uninstall" operating systems. you simply remove its partition(s) or format them.
[08:40] <haru> october :S
[08:40] <riotkittie> ugh.
[08:40] <LiberoZ> 2007-10
[08:40] <haru> version .04 and .10 are for 4th and 10th month respectively
[08:40] <Esteth> Ah, ok. I thought they would have an actual date by now.
[08:40] <gpm> hey, that numbering scheme isn't *totally* transparent
[08:40] <gpm> 17th i think
[08:40] <gpm> is the projection
[08:40] <Jowi> Jwh424, same goes for windows. you can't uninstall that either.
[08:40] <Jwh424> Jowi, I will create a grub program that can uninstall itself.
[08:40] <gpm> it's on wikipedia (among other sources)

[08:46] <gpm> CyberMad: you don't need to add it to fstab, i don't think
[08:46] <gpm> CyberMad: are you on gnome?
[08:46] <`Cube> ye, thanks thanks
[08:46] <CyberMad> but i have problem that ubuntu always save the file as read only
[08:46] <MasterShrek> gpm, adding it to fstab makes it auto mount
[08:46] <MasterShrek> CyberMad, sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[08:47] <CyberMad> gpm do you think use smbfs will solve the problem?
[08:47] <gpm> no, listen to MasterShrek
[08:47] <CyberMad> MasterShrek ok, then?
[08:47] <MasterShrek> yes it will CyberMad

[08:47] <CyberMad> MasterShrek do you have the command to login with username and password?
[08:48] <CyberMad> MasterShrek or just change cifs to smbfs will solve the problem? //172.168.100.200/Tour /mnt/Tour smbfs auto,user,username=operation02,workgroup=WORKGROUP ,password=product,uid=500,gid=500,file_mode=0777,d ir_mode=0777,rw 0 0

[08:50] <magnetron> Hi. When i try to drag files from file roller and try to drop them on the desktop or in a folder, nothing happens. What's wrong?

[08:51] <Jowi> !id | Pram_fun
[08:51] <ubotu> Pram_fun: join ke #ubuntu-id untuk membahas ubuntu dalam bahasa Indonesia
[08:51] <MasterShrek> or command line :)
[08:51] <magnetron> MasterShrek: so there is no drag-and-drop support in file roller?
[08:51] <MasterShrek> i dont think so, i dunno i dont use gui apps =P
[08:52] <magnetron> medieval
[08:52] <MasterShrek> except for a select few
[08:52] <Jwh424> I love the newest version of Vista, it's hard to make it unbootable.. it just will not die.
[08:52] <MasterShrek> lmfao
[08:53] <MasterShrek> vista is puke
[08:53] <magnetron> !vista | Jwh424
[08:53] <ubotu> Jwh424: vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[08:53] <LiberoZ> i dont like vista
[08:54] <MasterShrek> LiberoZ, i hope theres nobody in the channel that does
[08:54] <MasterShrek> gotta hand it to m$ tho, they are keeping the hardware market moving
[08:55] <LiberoZ> sorry
[08:55] <Jwh424> The first release on vista would not boot again after installing linux. But this latest release, is hard to kill. I've just done some dumb stuff, and it's still running.
[08:55] <MasterShrek> whats vista's minimum requirements? 3.0gHz 2gigs o ram?
[08:55] <MasterShrek> lol
[08:55] <LiberoZ> can use grub for dos
[08:55] <David|V_> on a sad to hardware, i love the application envy
[08:55] <h1st0> MasterShrek: ask in #windows
[08:55] <MasterShrek> Jwh424, fdisk can kill it, i promise
[08:55] <Jwh424> How you knew my machine specs..lol
[08:55] <David|V_> for installing easy grafikcard's
[08:56] <MasterShrek> !envy
[08:56] <LiberoZ> fdisk /mbr ? :-P
[08:56] <MasterShrek> !info envy
[08:56] <h1st0> David|V_: envy shouldn't be recomended in here.
[08:56] <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!
[08:56] <ubotu> Package envy does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:56] <h1st0> !envy | David|V_ MasterShrek
[08:56] <ubotu> David|V_ MasterShrek: please see above
[08:56] <Jwh424> well, 3g of rams, and 4 cores...Vista runs beautifully!
[08:56] <dn4> what is a quality pdf viewer in ubuntu
[08:56] <MasterShrek> i bet it does lol
[08:56] <dn4> !pdf
[08:56] <ubotu> pdf is the Portable Document Format created by Adobe; viewable in GNU/Linux with xpdf/kpdf/evince, and also adobe reader (free download, but closed source)
[08:57] <h1st0> dn4: if you try to open one I believe it will recomend a reader
[08:57] <haru> dn4, u can also use document viewer which comes by default
[08:57] <MasterShrek> doesnt ubuntu come with evince?
[08:57] <h1st0> dn4: thats right document viewer does it by deault
[08:57] <MasterShrek> i dont think i installed it separately
[08:58] <MasterShrek> CyberMad, did that work?
[08:59] <Jowi> MasterShrek, yep, evince comes with the ubuntu-desktop package.
[09:00] <MasterShrek> thought so
[09:01] <LiberoZ> if i use VMware install ubuntu on one entire partition , can use grub for dos boot it ?
[09:01] <haru> how do i start a ssh server
[09:01] <h1st0> !ssh | haru
[09:01] <ubotu> haru: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[09:02] <h1st0> riotkittie: why are you defeated?
[09:02] <David|V_> haru, apt-get install openssh-server
[09:02] <haru> done, thanks David|V_ , h1st0
[09:04] <apollo13> hi, if I set a host-name option in dhcpd.conf for each client (option host-name "test"), how do I get the client to set this hostname as his hostname
[09:04] <riotkittie|> h1st0: because feisty crashed as i was in the process of configuring a kernel, and i am far too young and beautiful to continue to drive myself insane for the sake of being able to connect to my WPA2 network
[09:04] <leobloom> hallo!
[09:04] <h1st0> riotkittie|: you shouldn't have to configure a new kernel for wpa2.  But you can always boot to the old kernel
[09:05] <darkside_> hi
[09:05] <MasterShrek> apollo13, /etc/hosts
[09:05] <riotkittie|> then again, i am a glutton for punishment and will likely be back at it tomorrow
[09:05] <leobloom> is it normal than I cant cut or move files on a ntfs partition but just copy them even after installing the ntfs-3g?
[09:05] <riotkittie|> i was trying to compile the serialmonkey drivers, and they said wlan card support wasnt enabled in the kernel
[09:06] <MasterShrek> leobloom, how did you mount the partition? what command did you use?
[09:06] <riotkittie|> or something
[09:07] <darkside_> laaalaaalaaa
[09:07] <LiberoZ> :'(
[09:07] <darkside_> blaaaaa
[09:07] <apollo13> MasterShrek: what do you mean, I think there is a missunderstanding I want the host to obtain his hostname by querying the dhcp-server
[09:08] <darkside_> ok....what do u want
[09:08] <leobloom> MasterShrek: dont remember, I installed this application in June and came back home only yesterday, hadnt nonticed I couldnt cut files, if iremember well after installing ntfs-3g it asked me to chooose which partitions to mount via gui (but I?m not 100% sure)
[09:08] <probulus> is this the appropriate place to ask a question regarding kernel modules and how to get them to load on startup?
[09:08] <MasterShrek> sorry apollo13 i dunno how to do that
[09:09] <MasterShrek> leobloom, paste the relevant line from /etc/fstab here
[09:09] <rmaj> hello
[09:09] <darkside_> mbohraroh
[09:09] <leobloom> MasterShrek: I had installed ntfs-3g already before but  it didnt let me access to the partitions at all, to any except home  and /, then I unistalled it and reinstalled and i thought it was working ok
[09:09] <rmaj> I have an AM2 (amd64 dualcore) which main board should I buy for best linux compatibility?  perahps with good builded in video card (good for 3d on closed drivers)
[09:10] <MasterShrek> rmaj, dont get an ati vid card
[09:10] <LiberoZ> :-P
[09:10] <MasterShrek> leobloom, make sure it is using ntfs-3g as the type in /etc/fstab
[09:10] <rmaj> MasterShrek: didnt ATI just opened the specs or something>?
[09:10] <Jowi> rmaj, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMotherboardsAmdSocketAm2
[09:11] <leobloom> MasterShrek: and how can I be sure?
[09:11] <MasterShrek> rmaj, maybe, but i dunno how well its going to be right away, just cuz they opened their specs doesnt mean their hardware works good yet, but im on nvidia, so i guess i cant really say
[09:11] <kelvin_sky_chine> haiii
[09:11] <MasterShrek> leobloom, sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[09:11] <leobloom> MasterShrek:  already done it, I'm lookin for the pastebin site
[09:12] <probulus> I've got my nic working but I can't get it to work without having to tell modprobe to add it to the kernel every time I reboot. How do I get it to do this automatically?
[09:12] <leobloom> MasterShrek: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38433/
[09:13] <Jowi> probulus, you add it to /etc/modules
[09:13] <overclucker> !gksu
[09:13] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[09:13] <MasterShrek> leobloom, can u paste the output of the command: mount
[09:14] <rmaj> All the mainboards listed on  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMotherboardsAmdSocketAm2Asus  do not work fully.  Does it mean that Ubuntu doesnt yet support Amd64 (AM2) cpu's (because of mobo problems)?
[09:15] <leobloom> MasterShrek: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38434/
[09:16] <MasterShrek> leobloom, sudo umount /media/backup
[09:16] <magnetron> rmaj: that list is not updated with all tested motherboards, i think they only add nonworking mobos to that list. that the mobo will work is rather much the default
[09:16] <MasterShrek> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda5 /media/backup
[09:17] <probulus> jowi: it's in there right now but only because I just added it back again
[09:17] <probulus> jowi: since my last reboot i mean
[09:17] <leobloom> MasterShrek:  a minute, my pc is slow lol .D and I'm even slower :D
[09:17] <MasterShrek> leobloom, also if you add this line to /etc/fstab, it will auto mount on boot:
[09:18] <MasterShrek> /dev/sda6      /media/backup    ntfs-3g     defaults    0   0
[09:18] <Jwh424> Sucess! I've recover my Vista MBR!
[09:18] <rmaj> magnetron: wouldnt it make sense to list the WORKING mainboards O_o ?
[09:18] <Jwh424> I've defended the evil grub...(suppose)
[09:19] <magnetron> rmaj: ofcourse, but it's a community maintained wiki... who would take the time to do that?
[09:19] <leobloom> MasterShrek:  after tryuing to mount backup says that themounting point for it doesnt exist o.O
[09:19] <`Cube> I need help, I tried get my sound card work but it doesn't want, and please don't say !sound or something like that, I tried it all
[09:19] <MasterShrek> leobloom, sudo mkdir /media/backup    then try to mount it
[09:20] <MasterShrek> `Cube, has it ever worked?
[09:20] <Jwh424> *defeated
[09:20] <`Cube> well not on ubuntu
[09:20] <`Cube> on windows yes
[09:20] <MasterShrek> of course it works on windows, the hardware was designed for windows
[09:20] <`Cube> and im sure it will work because my comp is new, I just don't know how to make that
[09:20] <rmaj> magnetron: same people that take time to input mobos that failed to work
[09:20] <Jwh424>  easybcd is a great, Windows should buy them out ;-)
[09:20] <tico1> hello
[09:20] <Jwh424> lol
[09:21] <MasterShrek> `Cube, how new? its probably not supported yet
[09:21] <bluebanana> how do i get mplayer to play a.mp3 then b.mp3 then c.mp3, and do so in a loop/repeat pattern
[09:21] <`Cube> oh
[09:21] <magnetron> rmaj: the list of failed mobos is there to warn you
[09:21] <`Cube> well
[09:21] <leobloom> MasterShrek: it says "unknowkn filesystem type ntfs-3g"
[09:21] <`Cube> where can I check its name?
[09:21] <`Cube> I bought it in january
[09:21] <`Cube> well ok its not that new :P
[09:21] <tico1> some one know why i have the option of RAR file in right-clic but nothing happen?
[09:21] <MasterShrek> leobloom, sorry try this: sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda6 /media/backup
[09:21] <MasterShrek> leobloom, u may not need sudo
[09:22] <MasterShrek> tico1, sudo apt-get install rar unrar
[09:22] <MasterShrek> `Cube, lspci maybe will show it
[09:22] <Jowi> probulus, if it is in /etc/modules then it should be loaded at boot.
[09:22] <LiberoZ> tico1 :sudo apt-get install rar unrar
[09:22] <magnetron> tico1: install the rar padckage
[09:22] <rmaj> magnetron: is there a list to tell me what should be buyed

[09:24] <Jwh424> Sorry Windows, linux have detracted me from your greatest. ;-)

[09:24] <MasterShrek> !ask | iownyou
[09:24] <ubotu> iownyou: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:24] <rmaj> magnetron: they say they have no idea
[09:24] <tico1> MasterSherk: everything is checked
[09:24] <MasterShrek> iownyou, now stop asking to ask your question and ask your question
[09:24] <MasterShrek> i dont know how many times youve done that in the last hour
[09:25] <MasterShrek> tico1, was it checked before?
[09:25] <bluebanana> why does my terminal say that there are 2 users, (both me)?
[09:25] <`Cube> well ok but where can I find any info about installing sound?
[09:25] <bluebanana> how can i get off one user?
[09:25] <bluebanana> I think that's why my computer is slower
[09:25] <magnetron> rmaj: you could ask in linux chat channels, in linux web forums etc
[09:25] <LoneShadow> !nvidia

[09:26] <leobloom> MasterShrek: now it says the ntfslog is not clean,, I need to reboot to free it, right?
[09:26] <bluebanana> h1st0, it's not because of the ALT-f1 or f3 or f4, etc windows?
[09:26] <iownyou> my problem is that after the startup of ubuntu my lcd screen goes out of frequency (after the orange loading bar)\
[09:26] <rmaj> hmm ok
[09:26] <MasterShrek> i dunno for sure leobloom
[09:26] <rmaj> which mainboard should I buy (AM2 / amd64 socket)
[09:26] <`Cube> how can I install flash? the 3 links from adobe don't work
[09:26] <MasterShrek> iownyou, what kinda video card?

[09:27] <iownyou> MasterShrek : ATI RADEON 9550
[09:27] <MasterShrek> bluebanana, open two terminal windows and check
[09:27] <LoneShadow> Hi, can anyone tell me where is the setting for "Restricted video driver" is stored ?
[09:27] <MasterShrek> iownyou, do you have access to the files on the drive?
[09:27] <iownyou> im on windows right now
[09:27] <LoneShadow> I unchecked the nvidia driver, now XWindows dosnt start
[09:28] <MasterShrek> LoneShadow, what kinda card are u trying to install?
[09:28] <bluebanana> MasterShrek, every time i open a new terminal, user number increases by 1
[09:28] <iownyou> MasterShrek : im on windows right now
[09:28] <MasterShrek> iownyou, i need to see your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:28] <h1st0> LoneShadow: System > Administration > Restricted Manager
[09:28] <iownyou> how could i get it
[09:28] <tico1> MasterSherk: I did, dosen't work
[09:28] <magnetron> h1st0: his X won
[09:28] <LoneShadow> MasterShrek: Everything was working fine, until I saw a when XWindows restarted, it said I was running an Restricted driver or something, that its unsupported
[09:28] <magnetron> h1st0: his X wont start
[09:29] <LoneShadow> so I went to System->Adm->Restricted Manager, and Unchecked it
[09:29] <MasterShrek> tico1, impossible, rar is in multiverse
[09:29] <razer> haw do i make so i have access to make, write, delite, files on my secend disk?
[09:29] <h1st0> LoneShadow: ahh wel nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change driver to vesa
[09:29] <LoneShadow> it asked me to reboot, now X wont load :P
[09:29] <tico1> MasterSherk: I can see the option, but it dosen't work..
[09:29] <h1st0> LoneShadow: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:29] <LoneShadow> its set to nv right now, my old backup has nvidia
[09:29] <iownyou> MasterShrek :how could i get the Xorg.conf
[09:29] <tico1> MasterSherk: I mean... when i click right-button on the file
[09:29] <MasterShrek> iownyou, install a windows ext driver
[09:29] <h1st0> LoneShadow: well can you get in to X using nv driver?
[09:30] <MasterShrek> tico1, its because you dont have support for rar files
[09:30] <LoneShadow> hlst0: dont think so
[09:30] <tico1> MasterSherk: maybe because i have 6.06
[09:30] <iownyou> MasterShrek, do you have a clue where i could get that from
[09:30] <MasterShrek> all you have to do is install it, its in multiverse
[09:30] <MasterShrek> tico1, that would do it
[09:30] <MasterShrek> one sec iownyou and tico1 ill get you links
[09:30] <LoneShadow> MasterShrek, h1st0: I take it back, I have two devices defined in my xorg.conf, nv and nvidia
[09:30] <tico1> thanks a lot
[09:30] <iownyou> thanks MasterShrek
[09:30] <tico1> MasterSherk: thanks
[09:30] <h1st0> LoneShadow: okay well boot to recovery mode and log in then sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change the driver section to vesa  give that a try
[09:30] <nanonyme> LoneShadow, nv is said to be broken
[09:30] <MasterShrek> LoneShadow, nv should work, if it doesnt try vesa
[09:31] <MasterShrek> or maybe not lol
[09:31] <MasterShrek> i use nvidias driver from their site
[09:31] <sistom> is there anyway I can change the banner for when you login to ssh?
[09:31] <MasterShrek> never had a problem with it
[09:31] <h1st0> MasterShrek: never had a problem with nvidia-glx here
[09:31] <sistom> I don't want people identifying my OS using programs
[09:31] <nanonyme> dunno, i heard some recent xorg release was incompatible with it
[09:31] <nanonyme> vesa is fine though
[09:31] <LoneShadow> I probably did the same, I was having some problems with video, so I tried to uncheck thinking it will use the default nvidia driver
[09:31] <rausb0> sistom: you mean the message after login?
[09:31] <sistom> no
[09:32] <rausb0> sistom: the banner is usually not enabled. look in /etc/ssh/sshd_config for Banner ...
[09:32] <MasterShrek> tico1, http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/r/rar/rar_3.30-2ubuntu2_i386.deb
[09:33] <MasterShrek> iownyou, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[09:33] <LoneShadow> so I use startx to restart X after fixing xorg.conf ?
[09:33] <MasterShrek> LoneShadow, no, type: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[09:33] <LoneShadow> ok
[09:33] <LoneShadow> trying now, brb
[09:33] <MasterShrek> (assuming youre using gnome)
[09:33] <iownyou> thanks MasterShrek after that what do i do with it how would i send it to you
[09:33] <`Cube> OOOOOOMFG
[09:33] <`Cube> what to do if my soundcard is not supported???
[09:33] <MasterShrek> !pastebin | iownyou

[09:34] <MasterShrek> iownyou, open it in wordpad and copy paste it
[09:34] <MasterShrek> `Cube, wait until next month with gutsy gets release, its got an updated kernel and itll probably be supported
[09:34] <Jowi> `Cube, normally wait until there is a kernel release that supports it.
[09:34] <tico1> MasterSherk: thanks a lot i will check it now
[09:35] <MasterShrek> tico1, download that file then do this: sudo dpkg -i file.deb (replace file.deb with the name of that file)
[09:35] <LoneShadow> oh shoot, I forgot to update my driver after the kernel got updated :D
[09:35] <razer> haw do i make so i have access to make, write, delite, files on my secend disk?
[09:35] <dn4> how do I view my disk size?
[09:35] <h1st0> razer: chang ethe way its mounted.
[09:35] <`Cube> do I have to reinstall my whole ubuntu when gusty gets out or is it just an automatic UPDATE then?
[09:35] <moDumass> hey all, so if i do a distro update, how do i do that?
[09:35] <h1st0> !fstab | razer
[09:35] <ubotu> razer: 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
[09:35] <iownyou> MasterShrek :where is the file located
[09:35] <MasterShrek> tico1, heres one for unrar also: http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/u/unrar-nonfree/unrar_3.5.4-0.1_i386.deb
[09:35] <`Cube> do I have to reinstall my whole ubuntu when gusty gets out or is it just an automatic UPDATE then?
[09:36] <MasterShrek> iownyou, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:36] <h1st0> iownyou: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:36] <moDumass> and can i dload the whole thing and reinstall
[09:36] <iownyou> k
[09:36] <wizo> hey, is espeak in the repository? i tried apt-get install espeak but it wasnt there
[09:36] <h1st0> `Cube: you cn update
[09:36] <NielsE> 'Cube: just an update
[09:36] <moDumass> look at all these qs, the same
[09:36] <MasterShrek> `Cube, youll be able to update, just ask in here when its released someone will help u through it
[09:36] <`Cube> okok thanks!
[09:36] <h1st0> moDumass: what version of ubuntu are you running
[09:36] <Flannel> wizo: it is. http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/sound/espeak
[09:36] <`Cube> well update = a popup appears with XXX updates are available or do I have to update manually?
[09:36] <askand> I have a question about linux and viruses...now there arent many viruses for linux...but if linux grows, it will come more viruses..my questions is if its generally harder to make viruses for linux than windows?
[09:37] <MasterShrek> `Cube, youll have to do it manually
[09:37] <`Cube> k
[09:37] <`Cube> thanks
[09:37] <NielsE> `Cube; yes, just as you would normally update, only then the update is a bit larger :P
[09:37] <MasterShrek> change your sources and do a dist upgrade
[09:37] <iownyou> i open in wordpad or notepad
[09:37] <`Cube> etf?
[09:37] <tico1> MasterSherk: ok give me 1 sec
[09:37] <h1st0> `Cube: no it will prompt and tell you a new release is availible and ask you if you want to update to it or stay were you are.
[09:37] <`Cube> what the fuck
[09:37] <`Cube> oh ok
[09:37] <MasterShrek> iownyou, wordpad will probably work better than notepad
[09:37] <moDumass> hlstG im correnty on fiesty
[09:37] <wizo> Flannel, oh ok.. thanks, somehow it's not in mine..
[09:37] <`Cube> but will it download and install everything in the background or will I have to hack everthing?
[09:37] <h1st0> moDumass: What do you want to do now?
[09:37] <NielsE> `Cube: maybe you would need to run "update manager -c" but I am not sure problably it will prompt you that you can upgrade to gutsy like any other update
[09:38] <h1st0> `Cube: it will do everything in the background
[09:38] <wizo> apt-cache search espoeak doesnt show up too, do i need to update repository?
[09:38] <h1st0> NielsE: nah you won't
[09:38] <NielsE> `Cube: in 99% of the cases no hacking is needed
[09:38] <iownyou> ok im copying and pasting
[09:38] <MasterShrek> moDumass, change every instance of feisty to gutsy in /etc/apt/sources.list, then issue this command: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:38] <`Cube> ok thanks
[09:38] <h1st0> !info espoeak
[09:38] <ubotu> Package espoeak does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[09:38] <hmhowie> askand: there are already way more linux computers running the internet than windows computers. people try to target them, but they generally fail. a standard linux installation is a lot more secure than windows
[09:38] <MasterShrek> moDumass, itll prolly break your system tho lol
[09:38] <wizo> espeak*
[09:38] <h1st0> !info espeak | wizo
[09:38] <LoneShadow> MasterShrek, h1st0: Thanks for the help, it looks like I had to reinstall the driver coz of the new kernel update :)
[09:38] <Flannel> wizo: what version of Ubuntu are you running?
[09:38] <ubotu> wizo: espeak: A multi-lingual software speech synthesizer. In component main, is optional. Version 1.21-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 57 kB, installed size 220 kB
[09:38] <MasterShrek> LoneShadow, yep that will generally cause problems
[09:38] <NielsE> MasterShrek: the update-manager is recommended above editing your own sources.list
[09:39] <wizo> Flannel, 6.06, server edition
[09:39] <haru> where do i find x-window-system-dev
[09:39] <wizo> Flannel, do i have to update repos?
[09:39] <MasterShrek> NielsE, i suppose, im a little old-school lol
[09:39] <h1st0> !info espeak dapper
[09:39] <ubotu> Package espeak does not exist in dapper
[09:39] <wabid> does anyone know of a way to enable compiz with a ati firegl v5200
[09:39] <Flannel> wizo: Ah, espeak isn't in dapper.
[09:39] <nanonyme> ew, dapper is so old :/
[09:39] <wabid> or is it not possible
[09:39] <wizo> awww :(
[09:39] <h1st0> wizo: it doesn't exhist in dapper try www.getdeb.net
[09:39] <Jwh424>  Sorry Windows, linux have detracted me from your greatest. ;-)
[09:39] <Jowi> nanonyme, but stable
[09:39] <h1st0> wizo: or you can build it from source
[09:39] <NielsE> wabid: any drivers installed yet?
[09:39] <wizo> so i shall have to get it from the sourceforge?
[09:39] <wabid> yea
[09:39] <`Cube> how can I use the WHITEBOARD feature in inkscape?
[09:39] <wabid> drivers work almost perfectly
[09:39] <Jwh424> I will try next weekend it install ubuntu over
[09:39] <rausb0> wizo: you have to build espeak from source then
[09:40] <wizo> haha alright, thanks guys, just checking
[09:40] <gggggig> can you digg this http://digg.com/linux_unix/Howto_Openmoko_on_HTC_Magician_s100_in_Dual_Boot_with_WinCE ?
[09:40] <nanonyme> Jowi, debianists o.O
[09:40] <wabid> except it keeps defaulting to 1920x1440 instead of 1920x1200 on the login screen
[09:40] <`Cube> how can I use the WHITEBOARD feature in inkscape?

[09:40] <Jowi> nanonyme, nah only serverist :D
[09:40] <NielsE> wabid, what happens when you start compiz? assuming you are using feisty
[09:40] <h1st0> !patience | `Cube
[09:40] <ubotu> `Cube: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:40] <`Cube> lol ok
[09:40] <wabid> im using gutsy
[09:40] <h1st0> wabid: gusty is in #ubuntu+1
[09:40] <askand> hmhowie:  how come?
[09:40] <NielsE> #ubuntu+1
[09:40] <Jowi> nanonyme, it's the only version that is LTS at the moment.
[09:40] <Jowi> !lts
[09:40] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[09:41] <nanonyme> heh
[09:41] <MasterShrek> iownyou, under device where it says: Driver     "ati"      change it to     Driver       "vesa"     and give it a shot
[09:41] <wabid> thanks
[09:41] <NielsE> feisty+2 will be LTS
[09:41] <iownyou> k
[09:41] <leobloom> MasterShrek: it works! I forced the cleaning and the mounting :D thanks a lot!!!!
[09:41] <neea> Jowi: what about 6.06 that too is LTS
[09:41] <MasterShrek> good to hear it leobloom
[09:41] <h1st0> neea: that is dapper yes
[09:41] <tico1> MasterSherk: sorry but i dont know why. it dosen work. If i clic on it, it shows me a file in blank : -(
[09:42] <MasterShrek> tico1, you installed both debs?
[09:42] <iownyou> MasterShrek Will you still be here when i get back
[09:42] <hmhowie> askand: the quality of code in linux is higher than in windows and linux supports, for example, strict user rights. that means an apache webserver, run as someone other than root, cannot hose the system and can be configured to process php-scripts from only a certain user, for example.
[09:42] <MasterShrek> iownyou, if you hurry, i have class in 5 hours and i have to sleep lol
[09:42] <nanonyme> Jowi, then again, i'm myself using gutsy on my laptop so maybe stability isn't the only issue for me ^^
[09:42] <h1st0> I'm going to bed gnight all
[09:42] <Jowi> neea, 6.06 = dapper
[09:43] <neea> how do i directly boot in console in ubuntu live CD... without going to GUI and then pressing alt+ctrl+f4 ?? :)
[09:43] <neea> Jowi: i know
[09:43] <askand> hmhowie: ah ok thanks for explaining :)
[09:43] <iownyou> ok lol BYE
[09:43] <MasterShrek> neea, i dunno if u can, what so hard about switching out of the gui?
[09:43] <g1gaman> how can i check how much videoram has machines videocard? the 'sysinfo' utility returned just name and manufacturer of the videocard? thanks in advance
[09:44] <tico1> MasterSherk: yes!! also if i try to make a RAR file i can see the option, but when i clic create nothing happens
[09:44] <neea> MasterShrek: problem arises when i use black and white monitor, wherein i cannot see anything in GUI :(
[09:44] <hmhowie> askand: of course, windows has supported user rights since nt, it's just nobody codes for them.
[09:44] <Jowi> nanonyme, I agree. you have to find a balance of what suits your needs. features vs. stability. I found edgy to be the most stable _on my hardware_
[09:44] <excowboy> Hi, its not a ubuntu specific question, but is completewhois down ?
[09:44] <neea> MasterShrek: i i have to switch to console. ? anyway how to do that ?
[09:45] <neea> !boot
[09:45] <ubotu> Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[09:45] <MasterShrek> neea, like u said, ctrl+alt+f1, that will give u a console, i dont think u can boot without a gui
[09:45] <MasterShrek> not on the livecd at least
[09:45] <abhishek> haru, there?
[09:45] <Jowi> nanonyme, I just recently (like two days ago) upgraded to feisty. we'll see how it is. Usually I find that it is time to upgrade when it's been in the field for 3-4-5 months.
[09:45] <wizo> hrm, i'm trying to compile it, it says cannot find -lportaudio
[09:45] <nanonyme> Jowi, i think the ubuntu after gutsy will work just perfect on my laptop. gutsy is still having problems with my wifi
[09:45] <haru> abhishek, yeah
[09:46] <abhishek> lunch ?
[09:46] <haru> 2 mins
[09:46] <haru> fixing latest compiz
[09:46] <MasterShrek> nanonyme, what wifi card do you have?
[09:46] <nanonyme> bcm4318 iirc
[09:46] <wabid> my wifi too
[09:46] <Jowi> nanonyme, oh I see. I don't use wifi.
[09:46] <MasterShrek> nanonyme, i jsut help someone set one up
[09:46] <riee_moetzz> Hiu
[09:46] <wabid> works fine at the library but not at home
[09:46] <nanonyme> i also have a powerpc processor so i'm reliant on bcm43xx driver
[09:46] <wabid> even when i turn security off
[09:47] <nanonyme> which isn't quite ready yet
[09:47] <MasterShrek> nanonyme, did u get the firmware?
[09:47] <nanonyme> yes
[09:47] <MasterShrek> that is true nanonyme, its still a bit buggy
[09:47] <g1gaman> gentlemen, how can i check how much videoram has machines videocard? the 'sysinfo' utility returned just name and manufacturer of the videocard.
[09:47] <MasterShrek> i got a 4311, works fine, but i use wired more than anything

[09:59] <mm23> what are the commands for disconnect & connect from the internet ?
[09:59] <MasterShrek> murlidhar, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[10:00] <MasterShrek> mm23, sudo ifconfig eth0 down <-disconnects    sudo ifconfig eth0 up <- connects
[10:00] <sahafeez> okay, riddle me this. the owner of that file is replaced by the uploaders (rsync) usersname on sync. it was root.users and changed to the username used for ssh
[10:00] <sahafeez> root.user becomes sahafeez.sahafeez in this case.
[10:01] <sahafeez> so then i would own it and beable to change it..
[10:01] <mm23> does does ifconfig have man command ? (man ifconfig)
[10:01] <MasterShrek> mm23, try it and find out
[10:01] <mm23> lol ok

[10:05] <iownyou> i will really be ticked if i cant get it to work
[10:05] <zoidberg_> Whacked, what is a switch?
[10:05] <MasterShrek> its porbably something simple
[10:05] <esben_> irc.dotsrc.org
[10:05] <mm23> does Ubuntu have same as windows .bat files or someting like that ? that i can write commands for autorun in special order
[10:05] <mm23> ?
[10:06] <hwolff> hello
[10:06] <MasterShrek> iownyou, so u cant get at that file or waht?
[10:06] <zoidberg_> Whacked, if you mean like an ethernet hub....i have that
[10:06] <esben_> sorry
[10:06] <iownyou> no i cant
[10:06] <Whacked> zoidberg_: a network switch, aka hub
[10:06] <zoidberg_> Whacked, how can i do that with a hub?
[10:06] <MasterShrek> mm23, google for bash scripting
[10:06] <bmt> can anyone help me with wine ?
[10:06] <mm23> MasterShrek: 10x man :)
[10:06] <MasterShrek> well i wont be able to help you if u cant get at it iownyou, can u boot ubuntu and get a terminal (ctrl+alt+f1) ?
[10:07] <Whacked> zoidberg_: i'm not 100% sure on the software configuration, but i know you'll need a hub or crossover cable
[10:07] <iownyou> yes i can
[10:07] <iownyou> i can get in terminal
[10:07] <hwolff> anyone around who knows H.323 and/or ekiga?
[10:07] <zoidberg_> Whacked, I have a hub...my laptop has wireless pc access...how do i share that with the pc?
[10:07] <MasterShrek> iownyou, well irssi is a command line based client, you can use that to connect to irc
[10:07] <MasterShrek> zoidberg_, i believe u have to set up a bridge, but i dont really know how to do it
[10:08] <zoidberg_> MasterShrek, do u know where i could look?
[10:08] <iownyou> so i can talk in this chat?
[10:08] <iownyou> from that cd
[10:08] <MasterShrek> google
[10:08] <Whacked> zoidberg_: it might be as simple as manually setting the PC's ip address, and it's dns server to the laptop's ip, but i'm not sure if that will work
[10:09] <MasterShrek> iownyou, yea, it should have xchat, if it doesnt u can use that terminal based client: irssi
[10:09] <MasterShrek> iownyou, can u get into a gui on the livecd?
[10:10] <iownyou> in safe graphics mode
[10:10] <Jork> will be 7.10 LTS release?
[10:11] <MasterShrek> ok, well yea i think the livecd has xchat, a graphical irc client, u shold be able to use it
[10:11] <MasterShrek> but i really need to get to bed
[10:11] <iownyou> im prolly never going to fix this
[10:11] <iownyou> its like this with every single linux ive tried
[10:11] <MasterShrek> iownyou, its probably something simple, if it works in safe graphics mode, it will work
[10:12] <bmt> iownyou: what is your trouble ?
[10:12] <iownyou> then how can i make it so its safe graphics mode the hole time
[10:12] <BigDaddy> Anyone here familiar with IMWheel?
[10:12] <MasterShrek> good luck iownyou, ill be back tomorrow afternoon, 12 hrs from now or so
[10:12] <[nrx] > i have a really stupid question. how do i modify the mouse behaviour so that you have to double click to execute/open and single click ust selects?
[10:12] <iownyou> i cant get to the login screen without my screens frequecny going out of range
[10:12] <MasterShrek> theres no such thing as stupid questions, only stupid people
[10:12] <MasterShrek> =P
[10:13] <BigDaddy> I don't know Shrek, I have aasked some whoppers
[10:13] <iownyou> bmt:i cant get to the login screen without my screens frequecny going out of range
[10:13] <MasterShrek> [nrx] , open a nautilus window and go edit > preferences on the behavior tab
[10:13] <BigDaddy> nrx, I actually know that one. are you one KDE?
[10:13] <Quak3r> what about xchat in the live cd?
[10:13] <bmt> iownyou: is this on startup ?
[10:13] <MasterShrek> nite all
[10:13] <hmhowie> [nrx] : open a nautilus window by clicking on a folder on your desktop and go to edit->preferences
[10:13] <BigDaddy> nevermind, Shrek has it
[10:13] <Quak3r> on gutsy
[10:13] <Quak3r> :D

[10:14] <bmt> BigDaddy: what is imwheet ?
[10:14] <iownyou> yeah bmt
[10:14] <[nrx] > MasterShrek: thanks :)
[10:14] <netstalker_> hi guys
[10:14] <BigDaddy> IMWheel is a tool for checking mouse button assignments
[10:14] <Jork> o la la fantje
[10:14] <Jork> to je kr neki
[10:14] <Jork> :D
[10:14] <casualk> anyone out here got the right click key(found between the right Ctrl and Alt keys on some keyboards) working in ubuntu?
[10:14] <netstalker_> yeah
[10:14] <netstalker_> works for me
[10:15] <hmhowie> [nrx] : it will be different in kde. unfortunately, i don't have a kde installation atm, so i can't really help :(
[10:15] <netstalker_> right clickkey
[10:15] <BigDaddy> So far I have only left and right mouse buttons working and I have been working on this for over 12 hours (off and on)
[10:15] <[nrx] > don't seem to be able to in konquerer tho ;/
[10:15] <nox-Hand> Hey
[10:15] <casualk> did it work by default or did you need to do something?
[10:15] <iownyou> bmt : yeah this is on the start up
[10:15] <netstalker_> gutsy gibbon tribe x
[10:15] <netstalker_> or sumfing
[10:15] <BigDaddy> NRX hold on...I ran across that today...
[10:15] <netstalker_> so i guess by default
[10:15] <nox-Hand> When I boot up Ubuntu, I get all those [ 110001240.124021]  numbers up, that says stuff about usb and other things loading - like dmesg. Yet, the only last official thing without those I see is Waiting for root file system. About five seconds later it freezes and gets no further.
[10:16] <hmhowie> [nrx] : if i remember correctly, kde has a huge help center where you can configure everything
[10:16] <nox-Hand> Help?
[10:16] <netstalker_> buuut... i cant get my xchat to do any succesful file transfer
[10:16] <iownyou> BMT ARE YOU still there
[10:16] <bmt> iownyou: what have you done so far to attempt to rectify ?
[10:16] <casualk> oh i was wondering how i could enable it? (the right-click key)
[10:16] <netstalker_> update-manager -d
[10:17] <netstalker_> :)))
[10:17] <bmt> iownyou: what type of gfx do you have ?
[10:17] <netstalker_> do that
[10:17] <iownyou> ok first ive tried was going through the xserver and xorg setup
[10:17] <murlidhar_> netstalker_: perhaps u didn't update the download path
[10:17] <netstalker_> neah
[10:17] <iownyou> second changed xorg.conf file
[10:17] <netstalker_> its all set
[10:17] <[nrx] > hmhowie: that's wha ti thought but i can't find anything referencing mouse behaviour lol :/
[10:17] <netstalker_> it doesnt work in gaim either
[10:17] <bullgard4> !envy
[10:17] <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!
[10:17] <iownyou> bmt: gfx what do you meen by that
[10:17] <bmt> iownyou: do you have desktop effects turned on ?
[10:18] <iownyou> grapghic card
[10:18] <bmt> iownyou: what type of graphics card do you have ?
[10:18] <iownyou> ive never even made it to the desktop
[10:18] <iownyou> i have a ati radeon 9550
[10:18] <[nrx] > found it!
[10:18] <[nrx] > <--thick as mince
[10:19] <BigDaddy> nrx, it is on the mouse config applet
[10:19] <bmt> iownyou: what driver do you have installed ?
[10:19] <[nrx] > yeah
[10:20] <netstalker_> wow... it worked... automagically
[10:21] <netstalker_> how nice
[10:21] <netstalker_> :d
[10:21] <netstalker_> thanks guys
[10:21] <netstalker_> bye
[10:21] <iownyou> bmt did you hear what i said
[10:21] <bmt> iownyou: i see what type of gfx card you have..but what driver do you have set in your xorg.conf file ?
[10:21] <wabid> has anyone installed granparidiso and gotten really really big icons
[10:21] <am^2u> hi
[10:22] <am^2u> does ubuntu 7.04 have suppport for irda /
[10:22] <iownyou> vesa
[10:23] <iownyou> bmt :vesa
[10:23] <bmt> iownyou: you should change that to ati driver
[10:23] <iownyou> both those words?
[10:24] <am^2u> the ati dirver is fglrx right ?
[10:24] <iownyou> it should look like this? "ati driver"
[10:24] <wabid> does this look odd to anyone - http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/2474/screenshotwd5.png
[10:24] <BigDaddy> looks like you have  your zoom on
[10:24] <bmt> iownyou: it will probably look like this : 'driver' 'ati'
[10:24] <am^2u> try ctrl + -
[10:24] <am^2u> for the large icons in gran
[10:24] <wabid> ctrl +- wont change the size of the tabs
[10:25] <bmt> iownyou: under the 'device' section fo your xorg.conf file
[10:25] <iownyou> i had ati before it didnt work
[10:25] <BigDaddy> ctrl++ would only work for text, not Google images
[10:25] <wabid> yea
[10:25] <wabid> that too
[10:25] <am^2u> FF doesnt zoom images
[10:25] <BigDaddy> do you have beryl or compiz running?
[10:25] <wabid> no they dont work atm
[10:25] <am^2u> you need the zoomlike opera extension
[10:25] <wabid> but even the toolbar buttons are big
[10:25] <am^2u> hmm
[10:26] <am^2u> let me have a better look
[10:26] <BigDaddy> that is probably an accessibilty feature for the blind in GNOME
[10:26] <iownyou> bmt are you there
[10:26] <wabid> i have granparadiso-gnome installed
[10:26] <am^2u> yes could be , but then everything else would appear zoomed
[10:26] <bmt> iownyou: i am here....you really should try to use the ati driver again
[10:27] <wabid> yea the text isnt zoomed on the top toolbar
[10:27] <wabid> nor on the buttons
[10:27] <wabid> but the web text is enlarged
[10:27] <am^2u> is it only granparadiso  ?
[10:27] <wabid> yea
[10:27] <am^2u> or anyother toolbar ?
[10:27] <wabid> i have firefox running right next to it in the screenshot
[10:27] <BigDaddy> am^2u... was that the active window? Could follow focus
[10:27] <wabid> http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/2474/screenshotwd5.png
[10:27] <wabid> it doesnt
[10:27] <iownyou> dude im serious thats what i had before BMT
[10:28] <wabid> firefox is selected
[10:28] <am^2u> hmm ,could
[10:28] <LoneShadow> anyone know how to uninstall NVidia's drivers and re-install ubuntu's default drivers for nvidia cards ?
[10:28] <am^2u> i have the stable version installed
[10:28] <am^2u> i could try
[10:28] <VSpike> LoneShadow: how did you install the nvidia drivers?
[10:29] <LoneShadow> downloaded the latest driver from nvidia.com website
[10:29] <am^2u> LoneShadow, try compiling Xserver
[10:29] <am^2u> with Vesa
[10:29] <LoneShadow> but when I updated to new kernel, I forgot to update the driver. in X I de-selcted some unrestricted checkbox, now X wont start
[10:30] <stefg> LoneShadow: run the Nvidia*.sh script again with option -u / --uninstall. Reading the docu would have taught you that
[10:30] <VSpike> LoneShadow: you can switch driver by finding the line or lines in /etc/X11/xorg.conf that say  << Driver "nvidia" >> and changing it to << Driver "nv" >>
[10:30] <bmt> iownyou: are you there ?
[10:30] <VSpike> LoneShadow: but yeah what stefg said
[10:30] <iownyou> yeah im here
[10:30] <LoneShadow> stefg: and how do I install the other driver, any docs/faq/howtos for that ?
[10:30] <murkyMurk> hi, 2nd hard drive (sata) not seen in upgrade to feisty, nothing useful in forums....any ideas?
[10:31] <iownyou> bmt: im here
[10:31] <LoneShadow> VSpike: I tried switching nvidia to nv and vesa, didnt help
[10:31] <bmt> iownyou: did you try to reinstalll the ati driver ?
[10:31] <stefg> LoneShadow: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic nvidia-glx-new .
[10:31] <LoneShadow> am I supposed to have some nvidia packages installed ?
[10:32] <VSpike> LoneShadow: can you be more specific about "didn't help" ... what problem did you get?  X failed to start?
[10:32] <VSpike> murkyMurk: if you do "sudo fdisk -l" can you see the drive?
[10:32] <LoneShadow> VSpike: X complains about NVidia's API version mismatch
[10:32] <iownyou> no
[10:32] <iownyou> thats what i had it as before
[10:32] <murkyMurk> nope, fdisk -l only shows hda drives
[10:32] <iownyou> ill go do it
[10:33] <wabid> can i convert .run files to .deb
[10:33] <VSpike> LoneShadow: even when you change the driver to vesa??
[10:33] <stefg> wabid: you could, but not automagically... :-)
[10:34] <yassine> #iee
[10:34] <LoneShadow> VSpike: yes, for some reason I was missing nvidia-glx-new, installing it now
[10:35] <murkyMurk> VSpike: drive not shown fdisk -l. rebooting to earlier edgy install shows it up fine
[10:35] <stefg> murkyMurk: inspect dmesg to get a clue what's going on
[10:35] <wabid> whats the easiest way to run it then
[10:36] <stefg> wabid: what are you trying to do?
[10:36] <murkyMurk> NVRM api mismatch....feisty was upgrade from edgy...hang over from NVidia driver?
[10:36] <BigDaddy> Jesus, I just do not understand these mouse configs
[10:36] <wabid> install the ati driver from their site, and see if it makes a difference
[10:36] <BigDaddy> Is there anyone here who has a multibutton mouse?
[10:36] <wabid> bigdaddy i do on my laptop
[10:36] <stefg> !ati | wabid
[10:36] <ubotu> wabid: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:37] <wabid> i have it installed
[10:37] <wabid> it works fine
[10:37] <MenZa> BigDaddy: which mouse?
[10:37] <wabid> but compiz doesnt work
[10:37] <wabid> i have a ibm with 3 buttons
[10:37] <BigDaddy> wabid, is it the touchpad or a true mouse?
[10:37] <wabid> touchpad
[10:37] <wabid> i can grab a real one
[10:37] <BigDaddy> damn, sorry that can't help me
[10:38] <BigDaddy> MenZa, I have a Micro Innovations mouse
[10:38] <wabid> why im pretty sure it thinks its a 3 button mouse
[10:38] <BigDaddy> generic POS IMO
[10:38] <wabid> cuz i can middle click
[10:38] <stefg> wabid: ati and compiz are always a pita... see if the guys in #ubuntu-effects can help you. MAKE A BACKUP NOW! you never know what's going to break by messing with not officially supoorted Ati-drivers
[10:38] <lordofthepigs> how can I disable automount on my ubuntu liveCD
[10:38] <BigDaddy> Te mouse I have has left click, scroll wheel, right click, thumb, and pinky buttons.
[10:38] <wabid> im starting to think it just wont work with atis drivers atm
[10:38] <lordofthepigs> I cannot use GParted in any useful way because ubuntu insists on auto-mounting all the partitions on my hard drive
[10:39] <BigDaddy> That is a total of 7 "buttons"
[10:39] <lordofthepigs> whereas I basically want all partitions to be deleted
[10:39] <BigDaddy> fractal?
[10:39] <wabid> use gparted live cd
[10:39] <BigDaddy> fract.designs fractal?
[10:39] <fractal2> no no
[10:39] <BigDaddy> damn
[10:39] <BigDaddy> you know him fractal2?
[10:39] <fractal2> i wish :(
[10:40] <BigDaddy> he's a litestep bud of mine
[10:40] <BigDaddy> just haven't seen him in a while
[10:40] <stefg> lordofthepigs: yeah, that's a major stupidity in ubuntu.... just start gparted, and unmaount all drives again after you started it
[10:40] <fractal2> darn, i just came up with this name at random
[10:40] <fractal2> maybe i saw his name somewhere before
[10:40] <Extravert> damn does anyone have a cure for my cerebralgia? cervical collar?
[10:40] <BigDaddy> Looks like I am the only one who noticed. Run with it
[10:41] <murkyMurk> ATA abnormal status 0x7F on port yahyah.......sata_nv borked on 2.16.20?
[10:41] <Symian> Hi - I just recently upgraded from 7.04 to 7.10, and apparently the package "rt2x00" was removed, which I desperately need in order to have internet access. The package definitely comes on the 7.04 cd I have. How can I install it from the CD, to get a wireless connection back?
[10:41] <BigDaddy> Anyways, back to my bitching...The mouse I have has left click, scroll wheel, right click, thumb, and pinky buttons.
[10:41] <Symian> Which makes my question: how can I install a package directly from a CD, rather than downloading it?
[10:41] <LoneShadow> now with NV as driver, it says "Unable to find valid framebuffer device"
[10:42] <stefg> lordofthepigs: a, and FYI ... do a backup. in my experience gParted does more often leave you with a broken system than not, after being painfully slow in bre3aking your system :-)
[10:42] <LoneShadow> is there a default xorg.conf ?
[10:42] <BigDaddy> I have my xorg.conf done ( I think) but now I have to have a imwheelrc file done as well. Anyone done that before?
[10:42] <Jwh424> nvidia 8 series needs more support from ubuntu
[10:42] <dgjones> Symian, you'd be better asking in #ubuntu+1, they're the ones dealing with support for the Gutsy testing versions
[10:42] <wabid> yea gparted isnt perfect, but i think i would trust it to delete everything off the drive
[10:42] <stefg> Jwh424: there's nvidia-glx-legacy
[10:42] <Symian> dgjones, thanks.
[10:43] <BigDaddy> LoneShadow, there will be a default for your system, but not a general default for everyone
[10:43] <Madnez> !ntfs
[10:43] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[10:43] <dgjones> Symian, no probs, you may have to be patient, there's not always many people in that channel though
[10:43] <stefg> !gutsy | Symian
[10:43] <ubotu> Symian: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[10:43] <Symian> dgjones, off the top of your head, is there a way to install a package from a cd, though?
[10:44] <LoneShadow> BigDaddy: so If I dont have a good backup of xorg.conf, I will to fix to things manually ?
[10:44] <BigDaddy> Symian - just add the CD to your repositories
[10:44] <Jwh424> stefg, does it support the latest series 8
[10:44] <murkyMurk> anyone any wiser as to why feisty is ignoring my sata drive but edgy sees it fine (both i386 default kernels(
[10:44] <BigDaddy> you can just reconfigure X
[10:44] <LoneShadow> was hoping I could back to default video settings, just like when I had installed ubuntu for the first time
[10:44] <Symian> BigDaddy, I did do that, but it always tries to download something from the internet.
[10:45] <dgjones> Symian, I wouldn't like to suggest anything with you having installed gutsy but trying to use a package from the Feisty cd
[10:45] <BigDaddy> # dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:45] <LoneShadow> thanks, will give it a try now
[10:45] <wabid> is there an easy way to whitelist a driver for compiz then
[10:45] <stefg> Symian: chances are that it won't help.... one kernel upgrade and you are where you are now... Gutsy is in development, so things break because not all packages are updated in sync
[10:45] <BigDaddy> you did that and it tried to download?
[10:45] <wabid> if thats a better way to ask
[10:45] <BigDaddy> you may need to sudo that of course
[10:46] <Symian> stefg: I understand why you say that, because that IS the reason you do beta releases, but I'm very "deep" in this issue and I know that all I need to do is to install the rt2x00 package.
[10:46] <Madnez> guys
[10:46] <BigDaddy> Symian, you still there?
[10:46] <Madnez> what drive format can be read by windows other than fat 32?
[10:46] <Symian> BigDaddy, um, yes.
[10:46] <Symian> Oh, I see. yes.
[10:46] <Madnez> i want NTFS but it does not allow me to partition my drive as ntfs
[10:47] <Symian> I'm on a seperate laptop.
[10:47] <Madnez> !partition
[10:47] <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
[10:47] <Madnez> !fstab
[10:47] <ubotu> 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
[10:47] <BigDaddy> I just wanted to remind you if you did not know already that you would be leaving the GUI and would have to restart it.
[10:47] <stefg> Jwh424: i misunderstood... i thought you were talking about the old 8. series *drivers* , not the 8000 *card* series
[10:48] <Jwh424> stefg, that's ok...can I install an older driver.  wonder will it work
[10:48] <Symian> BigDaddy, wait, I'm reading back - why would restarting X fix this issue?
[10:49] <BigDaddy> First off, what is your issue? Video resolution?
[10:50] <Kaur> If I have laptop-mode-tools installed do i need laptop-mode?
[10:50] <Symian> BigDaddy, what? No. The issue is that I need to install the rt2x00 package in order to get internet access.
[10:50] <DaveE_> hello, u have a question.. could anybody tell me, how can i untar a .tar.bz2 package?
[10:50] <Symian> BigDaddy, but obviously, I can't use the internet to do that install.
[10:50] <BigDaddy> xorg.conf contains your video res info, keyboard, mouse, screen...
[10:51] <BigDaddy> I'm quoteing here -   LoneShadow:  BigDaddy: so If I dont have a good backup of xorg.conf, I will to fix to things manually ?
[10:51] <DaveE_> i have bzip2 installed...
[10:51] <murkyMurk> tar -xjvf <file.bz2> isn't it
[10:51] <rausb0> DaveE_: tar xjf file.tar.bz2
[10:51] <BigDaddy> you asked me about your xorg.conf file. Not about netowrking
[10:52] <DaveE_> thnx :D
[10:52] <Symian> BigDaddy, I am not Loneshadow.
[10:52] <Symian> BigDaddy, you're talking to someone else, maybe?
[10:52] <zoidberg_> hey guys how do i check what my network card WIRELESS is in the terminal?
[10:52] <BigDaddy> jesus,,, I am sorry man
[10:52] <rausb0> zoidberg_: pci or usb?
[10:53] <zoidberg_> pci
[10:53] <rausb0> zoidberg_: lspci, iwconfig
[10:53] <murkyMurk> zoidberg_ iwconfig
[10:53] <BigDaddy> you answered me when I was talking to LoneShadow, and I just kept going
[10:53] <DaveE_> i have untared a theme.. now i donw know how to install it? it iis for KDE
[10:53] <lordofthepigs> Oh, and I have servel external USB HDDs, which used to work fine with ubuntu, but for the last few weeks, ubuntu refuses to recognize them at all
[10:53] <BigDaddy> Anyways,  you are wanting the CD reposittory right?
[10:54] <lordofthepigs> do you have any idea where this can come from?
[10:54] <murkyMurk> zoidberg_: iwconfig
[10:54] <lordofthepigs> WindowsXP has no problem recognizing those drives, and they work just fine
[10:55] <BigDaddy> Symian - open up Synaptic -> Settings -> Repositories
[10:55] <BigDaddy> It walks you through it from there. Just add the disc in the drive
[10:56] <stefg> lordofthepigs: did you mess with the kernel?
[10:56] <Symian> BigDaddy - like I said earlier, I did check to use the cdrom. That worked fine. But when I go to install the package, it still uses the internet.
[10:56] <lordofthepigs> er nope
[10:57] <lordofthepigs> that's too scary for me :)
[10:57] <BigDaddy> Did you remove the internet repositories?
[10:57] <CorpseFeeder> how do these LIRC things work? I have a IrDA port... and LIRC plugins... what do I do now?
[10:57] <Symian> BigDaddy - let me give that a shot
[10:57] <BigDaddy> If it is still there, it will continue to try and access the internet whether there is a connection or not
[10:57] <stefg> lordofthepigs: so what happened that made the kernel/udev/hal stop recognising everything that is scsi related ?
[10:58] <BigDaddy> It's like back in the day when AOL would try and connect the dial up when all you wanted was info from the address book
[10:58] <dn4> any thoughts on a mp3 mixing piece of software that allows the end user to hook it up to midi controller?
[10:58] <Symian> BigDaddy, after inserting the disk and adding the disk as a repository and then deleting the internet repositories, I then hit "Reload" and it generates an error: "please use apt-cdrom"
[10:58] <CorpseFeeder> any here know anything about configuring these LIRC things ???
[10:59] <lordofthepigs> oh, this is unrelated to my previous question
[10:59] <lordofthepigs> stefg: the previous question was about one of the comps at work, and that one is for my own laptop
[10:59] <murkyMurk> CorpseFeeder: hunt on google for LiRC in mythtv howtos
[10:59] <stefg> dn4: ask #ubuntustudio?
[11:00] <BigDaddy> you are using the CLI and not Synaptic?
[11:00] <dn4> stefg, already did
[11:00] <Symian> BigDaddy, i'm using Synaptic.
[11:00] <CyberMad> i have problem with my soundcard (microphone), after install ubuntu, then skype.. i test the microphone and it works.. but right now there is problem with the mic, can not record the sound. Then i tried use windows, but microphone is okay... how to detect and fix the problem?
[11:01] <Symian> BigDaddy, though when I use the CLI it does the same thing.
[11:01] <CyberMad> i don't want re-install ubuntu
[11:01] <CyberMad> i use ubuntu 7.04
[11:01] <stefg> !skype
[11:01] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[11:02] <BigDaddy> hmmm....
[11:02] <murkyMurk> CyberMad: alsamixer and up mic boost, make sure mic1/mic2 is set correctly
[11:02] <Chousuke> heh
[11:02] <CyberMad> stefg btw how to test my microphone without skype ?
[11:02] <Chousuke> don't boost the mic too much though
[11:03] <stefg> CyberMad: just use the audio recorder from the multimedia menu.
[11:03] <BigDaddy> wait wait wait.... you are trying to instal a file right?
[11:03] <CyberMad> i tried sound recorder software that included in ubuntu, but can not record any sound.. well i think this is software problem, because on other computer that have no problem with the mic, can not record sound too
[11:03] <murkyMurk> CyberMad: see alsamixer post above
[11:04] <stefg> CyberMad: what does cat /proc/asound/cards turn up ?
[11:06] <BigDaddy> Symian - what file is this you need?
[11:06] <dooglus> all file accesses are going very slowly.  is there something like 'top' for disks?
[11:06] <wabid> how can i set the resolution of the login screen
[11:06] <Symian> BigDaddy - the package for "rt2x00"
[11:06] <stefg> !fixres | wabid

[11:06] <Symian> BigDaddy - sorry, to your earlier question, yes, I just need to install one single package.
[11:06] <wabid> my desktop resolution is fine
[11:07] <wabid> its only the login screen
[11:07] <blaatert> is it possible to set a custom layerbreak for dvd+r dl in k3b ?
[11:07] <stefg> wabid: first read, then argue :-), ok ?
[11:07] <BigDaddy>  Symian:and you cannot apt-get from the terminal
[11:07] <wabid> sorry
[11:07] <brownie17> using the following command to encode a movie into ipod format, it tells me 'at least one output file must be specified'.

[11:07] <Symian> BigDaddy - tell me how?
[11:07] <BigDaddy> is there a deb package around?
[11:08] <wabid> got one of those for !fixgranparadiso-giantfuckingbuttons
[11:08] <Symian> BigDaddy - I dunno, is there? How would I find out?
[11:08] <tuntun> Hi.
[11:08] <brownie17> tuntun, hi
[11:08] <BigDaddy> you know, all I see are source packages
[11:08] <murkyMurk> still no sata drive in fiesty...anyone know what is fubared in 2.6.20-16 re sata?
[11:09] <CyberMad> stefg wait a second..
[11:09] <emman> where could i find a driver for linux duocore processor?
[11:09] <Symian> BigDaddy - ok, is that wrong?
[11:10] <blaatert> is it possible to set a custom layerbreak for dvd+r dl in k3b ???
[11:10] <BigDaddy> no it is not wrong, it is just more involved and difficult for new users
[11:10] <macsim> hi, I try to made backuppc works, I use a dhcp with dns, in the /etc/backuppc/hosts I add one client like "manu  1   rescue", but when I try to start full backup I have this message: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38438/
[11:10] <CyberMad> murkyMurk where is place to see alsamixer? Preferences - Sounds ?
[11:10] <wabid> i kinda wanna argue now
[11:11] <BigDaddy> apt-get won't install them though. All it will do is give you the sources. you would have to compile them then install them.
[11:11] <murkyMurk> CyberMad:  it's a command that you type in to a terminal
[11:11] <tuntun> I'm trying to write a script that:1.Gives a list of all files and directories recursively in /boot 2.pipes the filenames to "stat" to get name/type/size/ctime/mtime (I can't use "ls" because it can only output one time per-file) 3.pipes ctime/mtime to "date" to reformat it (using the "--date=" option to specify the date/time as opposed to the current time) and finally outputs name/type/size/ctime/mtime to file.out. I want to get it to look exactly like this(h
[11:11] <wabid> 1920x1200 isnt even an option
[11:11] <Symian> BigDaddy, ok, then, is that as simple as a ./configure && ./make && ./make install?
[11:11] <murkyMurk> still swearing at useless feisty here
[11:12] <BigDaddy> well then, you are better than I. I can't compile shit
[11:12] <zetheroo> when will Ubuntu have the new ATI opensource drivers?
[11:12] <justinhe> there are more people than debian channel
[11:12] <wabid> i set my resolution from screen resolution not screen and graphics
[11:12] <brownie17> BigDaddy, compiling most software is almost as simple as install a .deb
[11:13] <wabid> it didnt change anything it xorg.config
[11:13] <zetheroo> when will Ubuntu have the new ATI opensource drivers?
[11:13] <BigDaddy> I would just do: sudo apt-get rt2xoo-source
[11:13] <brownie17> BigDaddy, that's just about the one thing i CAN do on a linux system] 
[11:13] <BigDaddy> then take it from there
[11:13] <CyberMad> i did: cat /proc/asound/cards and it return: 0 [NVidia] : HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
[11:13] <CyberMad> HDA NVidia at 0xf5000000 irq 16
[11:13] <stefg> CyberMad: ah.... there's known issues with that hardware
[11:13] <zetheroo> when will Ubuntu have the new ATI opensource drivers?
[11:13] <wabid> stefg still having problems
[11:13] <stefg> !intelhda | CyberMad

[11:14] <Symian> BigDaddy - I'll tell you how that goes in a second

[11:14] <BigDaddy> yeah, I will need to wake up the family in a bit
[11:14] <wabid> my desktop boots to 1920x1200, which is nowhere to be found in xorg.conf
[11:14] <BigDaddy> Plus I still haven't figured outt this greek mouse config crap
[11:15] <stefg> wabid: that's probably autodetected. So what do want to achieve ?
[11:16] <murkyMurk> serves me right for trusting 'ubuntu-update' GUI. damn buggy PoS spends its whole life in error mode
[11:16] <zetheroo> when will Ubuntu have the new ATI opensource drivers?
[11:16] <tuntun> I hope this is the right place for my question...

[11:24] <wabid> and then do what
[11:25] <wabid> it has to be a buggy driver

[11:36] <iownyou> thats before i did ati
[11:37] <iownyou> i cant  access the xorg anymore
[11:37] <rausb0> iownyou: so you are logged in on the text console at the moment?
[11:37] <iownyou> (im on widows xp professional right now)
[11:38] <adamh> A bug I created (bug #36005 -- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/opensp/+bug/36005) has just been marked "invalid" because there has been no activity for 60 days. How can I get this bug fixed, aside from taking over maintainership of its package?
[11:38] <rausb0> iownyou: widows :)
[11:38] <iownyou> lol
[11:38] <chanakya> I want to download some marketing video for ubuntu ?
[11:38] <adamh> Or at the very least, how can I take it out of "Invalid" status?
[11:38] <chanakya> Any link
[11:38] <chanakya> I want to download some marketing video for ubuntu ? Any link ?
[11:38] <stefg> BurnAlting: i don't know one which is guarenteed to work, but seeing !hardware and asking #ubuntu-server might get you further
[11:39] <adamh> (I already wrote the solution to the bug back in April)
[11:39] <CorpseFeeder> I'm looking at this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Install_Lirc_Feisty and I'm completely and utterly lost. I haven't a clue how I'm supposed to know what modules to pick to build or anything... It just says "choose your modules" and I am presented with a list of meaningless items. What do I do?
[11:39] <BurnAlting> stefg - thanks will go to ubuntu-server
[11:39] <iownyou> rausb0 : are you there
[11:39] <iownyou> rausb0 : so do you think you can help me
[11:40] <piranesi> what's the name of this desklet (at the bottom, osx style)? http://www.lynucs.org/index.php?screen_id=51724851746c0624079f1c&p=screen
[11:40] <rausb0> iownyou: i edit the xorg.conf and paste it back, wait
[11:40] <stefg> BurnAlting: just for interest: Why do you want hardware raid? I consider that an outdated concept ...
[11:40] <iownyou> ok thansk
[11:42] <CorpseFeeder> I got as far as picking the SIR module to build, but then it's asking me for ACTISYS_ACT200L, TEKRAM or other.... I don't know what to pick or how to find that info out....
[11:42] <rausb0> iownyou: http://84.179.118.23:28833/
[11:42] <Madnez> crap this sucks!
[11:42] <CorpseFeeder> How do I know what my IRDA port is?
[11:42] <[nrx] > piranesi: i can't remember the name, but i downloaded it once from gnome-look.org
[11:42] <iownyou> stefg : i have raid devices does raid not work with linuc
[11:43] <Madnez> someone tell me how come when i partition my drive, i cant access it?
[11:43] <void^> real raid works, software raid works, fakeraid does not always fake as expected ;)
[11:43] <CorpseFeeder> I can't find any info about it in hardware information.. or at least I don't know what to look for...
[11:43] <Madnez> i got a new 300 gig drive. partitioned it to linux 3 format and now i dont have access to add files into it!
[11:43] <piranesi> [nrx] , do you remember if it is a new version of avant window? Currently I have gdesklet starter bar but it is not so cute :)
[11:43] <rausb0> iownyou: i hope it will work. cannot test it here, i have no ati
[11:43] <Madnez> it locked me out!
[11:44] <`Cube> how do I run RUN files?
[11:44] <stefg> iownyou: of course raid works with linux.... but there a many ways to choose from how to implement the raid. Either in hardware, or by software
[11:44] <savvas> `Cube: chmod +x file.run && ./file.run
[11:44] <[nrx] > piranesi: sorry, i can't remember - it was a while ago :(
[11:44] <rausb0> iownyou: i changed the monitor timings to fixed 60 hz vertical refresh, which should suit best for a tft
[11:44] <savvas> `Cube: don't forget to use sudo if it needs super-duper cow powers :)
[11:44] <iownyou> rausb0 : i have no access to my linux drives im on xp how do i overwrite the xorg.conf file
[11:45] <Madnez> guys
[11:45] <Madnez> i have no access to the partitioned drives
[11:45] <sobersabre> hi guys.
[11:45] <savvas> iownyou: use the driver from http://www.fs-driver.org/
[11:45] <USMarine> iownyou there's a thing called ext3explorer or something
[11:45] <sobersabre> where can I see up-to-date translation state of gutsy ?
[11:45] <Madnez> someone explain why cant i use my other drives?
[11:45] <rausb0> iownyou: can you copy the file to a usb stick and then boot linux, copying the file to /etc/X11 from there?
[11:46] <piranesi> [nrx] , no problem, I will do some search :)
[11:46] <savvas> Madnez: we're not fortune tellers, what where you doing and you're not able to access/use any of your drivers
[11:46] <iownyou> yeah but i used text base install
[11:46] <Madnez> ok, i just bought a new drive and partitioned it to a few sectors
[11:46] <rausb0> iownyou: even if X doesnt start, you can do that in text mode. got enough shell knowledge to do that?
[11:46] <Madnez> around 100 gig each
[11:46] <padski> Is there apt-listbugs integration for synaptic ?
[11:46] <USMarine> Madnez better to use a LVM imo
[11:47] <savvas> Madnez: did you format the partitions to ext3?
[11:47] <Madnez> after that i'm totally locked out from adding any files to these drives and i need to be the root user
[11:47] <Madnez> yeah
[11:47] <Madnez> ext3 all
[11:47] <stefg> !permissions | Madnez
[11:47] <ubotu> Madnez: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[11:48] <Madnez> ....
[11:48] <Madnez> you're joking
[11:48] <rausb0> iownyou: you can also use irc in text mode. sudo apt-get install irssi  and then  irssi -c irc.freenode.net   then  /j #ubuntu
[11:48] <Madnez> i gotta manually config all again?
[11:48] <stefg> Madnez: you need to change ownership and permissions to make the drives accessible for ordinary users
[11:48] <Madnez> i am the admin
[11:48] <USMarine> root*
[11:48] <Madnez> i still gotta sudo the drives?
[11:48] <USMarine> no
[11:49] <Madnez> i have no clue how to go about this...
[11:49] <stefg> Madnez: being admin doesn't mean you are root all the time... you only /explicitly/ gain superuser privs with sudo for each command
[11:49] <iownyou> omg i cant fix this
[11:49] <Madnez> why doesnt it just gives me root permission for the drives?
[11:49] <iownyou> this almost makes me not wanna do it
[11:50] <rausb0> iownyou: why?
[11:50] <feabura> Guys I dist upgraded to feisty but I noticed all my initscripts are gone, so upgrade didn`t complete. Cos it can`t make invoke-rc.d start or stop. Any idea about that???
[11:50] <Madnez> .... what an annoyance
[11:50] <iownyou> i cant use that driver from http://www.fs-driver.org/
[11:50] <stefg> Madnez: read the link ubotu gave you on peremissions to learn the concept
[11:50] <Madnez> yeah reading.... long work
[11:50] <slap> how do i add a command to be executed in boot time?
[11:50] <savvas> Madnez: you probably have to change owner, the chown command can be useful
[11:50] <rausb0> iownyou: why not boot into linux? you can do without X for the moment
[11:51] <USMarine> !runlevels
[11:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about runlevels - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:51] <stefg> Madnez: yeah reading and learning ... that's required to understand a different OS from waht windows is
[11:51] <rausb0> iownyou: when the monitor freq goes out of range, just switch to text console with ctrl-alt-f1 and log in there.
[11:51] <Madnez> its not the reading and learning part... its the commands!
[11:51] <savvas> stefg: that's actually required for every operating system :p
[11:51] <iownyou> i forget my login info
[11:51] <Madnez> user@host?
[11:51] <rausb0> iownyou: then run irssi and get back here
[11:51] <iownyou> from doing so much stuff
[11:51] <Madnez> so its xxx@host?
[11:51] <rausb0> iownyou: oh...
[11:52] <iownyou> i remember the password
[11:52] <`Cube> thanks savva
[11:52] <rausb0> iownyou: but not the username?
[11:52] <savvas> Madnez: ok what's the folder you mounted the drive?
[11:52] <stefg> savvas: sure... that was more targetted at the 'why is Linux different from windows?' attitude
[11:52] <iownyou> but not the yeah
[11:52] <yellow_chicken> for this command "ls -al | grep -i "something" ", it does a search query.  i have an ftp website, is there a way to query it?
[11:52] <savvas> stefg: oh.. I couldn't agree more then
[11:52] <savvas> :)
[11:52] <Madnez> its on my user folder
[11:52] <rausb0> iownyou: do you can run the ubuntu livecd?
[11:52] <savvas> Madnez: full path to the mounted folder
[11:52] <Madnez> savvas, why doesnt it just give me root as initial?
[11:53] <vsayikiran> stefg: i have created a directory under my /home/username directory and set ownership to root account. then from my user account i am able to delete the folder which was created by root, how is this possible
[11:53] <iownyou> i have a ubuntu text based install disc not live cd
[11:53] <kbrooks> Madnez, ubuntu != windows
[11:53] <iownyou> should i download a live cd
[11:53] <Madnez> savvas xxx/drive1
[11:53] <kbrooks> vsayikiran, easy, see...
[11:53] <Madnez> yeah but still i mean its easier giving root after formatting drive
[11:53] <kbrooks> vsayikiran, ls -l dir
[11:53] <Madnez> then readjusting as desired
[11:53] <iownyou> oh and did i metion that i can get ubuntu to work in safe graphics mode
[11:54] <mscava> hello, i'm trying to install ubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn from the live cd
[11:54] <savvas> Madnez: the general basic command to change owners is: chown -R yourusername:yourgroup path/to/your/mounted/drive1
[11:54] <stefg> vsayikiran: it still belonged to your users /group/ and had group write permissions
[11:54] <rausb0> iownyou: hmm, would take a while
[11:54] <iownyou> i know
[11:54] <iownyou> thats what im saying
[11:54] <mscava> it fails to boot with something like: can't access tty;
[11:54] <rausb0> iownyou: how do you connect to internet with your machine? simply dhcp and this it it?
[11:54] <vsayikiran> kbrooks: ls -l /home/username/test is drwx------ root root
[11:54] <Madnez> how do i determine my group?
[11:54] <savvas> Madnez: in ubuntu username and group are the same basically, so an example would be: sudo chown -R madnez:madnez /media/drive1
[11:55] <Madnez> thanks
[11:55] <iownyou> yeah
[11:55] <vsayikiran> lskbrooks: ls -l /home/username is drwxr-xr-x username username
[11:55] <mscava> in casper.log I see, that 4 partition were not mounted
[11:55] <iownyou> rausb0 :  yeah thats correct
[11:55] <filip89> hi, i have toshiba laptop with sound card realtek id 268, and i have any sound. My sound didn`t work at feisty, and also doesn`t work at gutsy
[11:55] <rausb0> iownyou: good. do you have a cd-r there? i can give you a small (35mb) live cd
[11:56] <chanakya> I want to download some marketing video for ubuntu ? Any link ?
[11:56] <stefg> chanakya: ask #ubuntu-marketing ?
[11:56] <vsayikiran> kbroooks: if test folder was owned by root, how could i delete it
[11:56] <rausb0> iownyou: please join #ra-help
[11:56] <Madnez> thanks a TON guys
[11:56] <iownyou> yeah i can grab one real quick
[11:56] <savvas> Madnez: btw, this was taken from chown --help :)
[11:56] <iownyou> in free node
[11:56] <rausb0> iownyou: yes
[11:56] <Madnez> .... just now i had to reinstall ubuntu 2x
[11:57] <iownyou> k
[11:57] <chanakya> stefg: they all seems sleeping :P
[11:57] <savvas> Madnez: why's that?
[11:57] <Madnez> first i installed it then used gpartition
[11:57] <chanakya> stefg: you guys must be knowing some video downloads site ?
[11:57] <Madnez> then i tried disk label
[11:57] <savvas> Madnez: I'd prefer the gparted package
[11:57] <Madnez> yeah
[11:57] <Madnez> gparted
[11:58] <Madnez> i first allocated 60gig x 2
[11:58] <Madnez> + main and swap = max
[11:58] <Madnez> without using extedned
[11:58] <feabura> Where can I find default initscripts like start or stop?
[11:58] <Madnez> after that i removed the 2 60 gig and tried to max out space... didnt work
[11:58] <Madnez> i got one 60 gig removed but the second kept mounting....
[11:59] <chanakya> feabura: /etc/init.d/rc.d
[11:59] <Madnez> so everytime i tried setting 100 gig, it goes half way then dies......
[11:59] <savvas> Madnez: I partition my extra drives in a live cd mode, keeps the root intact :P
[11:59] <Madnez> after that fiddled more and system was screwed up somehow.... so reinstalled and used installation disc to partition
[11:59] <Madnez> yeah
[11:59] <Madnez> i shoulda done that
[11:59] <savvas> well is working at least now?
[11:59] <feabura> chanakya: I mean if they`re not there
[11:59] <Madnez> live seems to be more stable
[12:00] <savvas> `Cube: no problem :)
[12:00] <Madnez> anyway thanks.... need to get nourishment
[12:00] <Madnez> brb
[12:00] <savvas> take care
[12:01] <chanakya> feabura: Huh , means
[12:01] <chanakya> feabura: What specific you want ?
[12:02] <filip89> need help, i have no sound
[12:03] <feabura> chanakya: I dist upgraded to feisty but I noticed all my initscripts are gone, so upgrade didn`t complete. Cos it can`t make invoke-rc.d start or stop. They`re not in /etc/init,d Any idea about that???
[12:03] <savvas> filip89: using which application?
[12:04] <kanzie> where do I discuss compiz-fusion?
[12:04] <vsayikiran> heguru: are you there
[12:04] <savvas> filip89: hit ALT-F2 and run this: gnome-volume-control
[12:04] <savvas> filip89: check file > change device. if there is another device, try with the second device listed, see if that helps
[12:05] <filip89> no i tried it
[12:05] <chanakya> feabura: the initscripts doesn`t come in one single package
[12:05] <savvas> filip89: the volume's not in mute?
[12:05] <chanakya> feabura: it`s installed individually by applications
[12:05] <filip89> savvas: no
[12:06] <jason__> ubuntu
[12:06] <savvas> filip89: ok try this in gnome terminal: sudo apt-get install --reinstall alsa-base
[12:06] <stefg> !effects | kanzie
[12:06] <ubotu> kanzie: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[12:06] <filip89> savvas: i reinstaled it several times
[12:06] <chanakya> feabura: if you know which applications initscripts you want you can do a dpkg-recunfigure <package name> to reinstall init scripts
[12:06] <savvas> filip89: what are you trying to hear? mp3 file with totem?
[12:07] <stefg> filip89: what does cat /proc/asound/cards turn up ?
[12:08] <spooner> hey
[12:08] <filip89> hda-intel
[12:08] <BobSapp> Does anyone know the package name to install mod perl?
[12:08] <spooner> how can i remove a package using apt-get and force it to remove even if the post removal scripts fall over?
[12:08] <stefg> !intelhda | filip89
[12:08] <ubotu> filip89: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[12:09] <savvas> hm weird, how come mine plays
[12:09] <stefg> savvas: YMMV
[12:09] <spooner> or.. how can i find out where the uninstall scripts for a package?
[12:09] <savvas> true
[12:10] <GNine> heh
[12:11] <feabura> chanakya: I think they`re default inits like start or stop. Maybe they come with kernel I`m not sure
[12:11] <spooner> anyone know how to force remove a package regardless of its uninstall script return code? or how can i find the uninstall script for a particular package?
[12:11] <GNine> heatsink had plenty of dust in the grooves (yuck)
[12:11] <stefg> spooner: which package clamps ?
[12:11] <spooner> nginx
[12:11] <spooner> it fails stopping the nginx service, however it is not even running.

[12:14] <bittin> ubotu: is cool =D
[12:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is cool =d - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:14] <stefg> !botabuse
[12:14] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[12:14] <kool20> Hey; do quota group applies to each individual user of the group or the group in general?
[12:15] <spooner> stefg, so any other ideas about my apt-get (removing nginx) issue?
[12:15] <lalala> got a cpu athlon xp mobile 2800+ and the scaling_available_frequencies are incorrect the minimum should be 800 MHz but gives me 1460 MHz
[12:16] <stefg> spooner: dpkg --force-help
[12:17] <SpAc> i feel like this is a stupid question... i'm using enlightenment and all my apps are unthemed bar their window borders. So all buttons, scrollbars etc.
[12:18] <un_dave> could someone help me with updating my nic drivers?
[12:19] <un_dave> i've downloaded the drivers from here: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=5&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
[12:19] <un_dave> and i'm looking a the instructions now.
[12:20] <NiceGuyUK> anyone know how to access a UDF format DVD on Feisty?
[12:20] <robink> NiceGuyUK: mount -t udf doesn't work?
[12:20] <robink> <-- Ubuntu newbie, but familiar with Debian as well as other distros.
[12:21] <un_dave> GNine: just chip it... dont software mod
[12:21] <spooner> stefg, no deal with dpkg :( do you know where the uninstall scripts would reside? i will try haxing them up
[12:21] <GNine> i like messing with microsoft
[12:21] <GNine> so i do soft mods
[12:21] <GNine> :-P
[12:21] <un_dave> i've done a fair few chip installs. they're easy and cheap
[12:22] <GNine> tru.. but still.. thats offtopic here..
[12:22] <un_dave> indeed it is.
[12:22] <GNine> heh
[12:22] <un_dave> you don't know how to install a network driver on ubuntu do yo ?
[12:22] <NiceGuyUK> robink: yeah, that works. It just didn't work automatically, it automounted as iso9660
[12:22] <stefg> spooner: look at /var/lib/dpkg/info ... not sure, tho
[12:22] <GNine> i actually dont..
[12:23] <un_dave> bummer.
[12:23] <lalala> any 1 who can help with my problem ?
[12:23] <stefg> !anyone
[12:23] <ubotu> 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?
[12:23] <GNine> before i could actually set xserver properly i was already connected to my network
[12:24] <lalala> i did
[12:24] <un_dave> ok. i've downloaded and extracted a driver archive. the instructions say to do this:
[12:24] <vsayikiran> why there isn't any undo command in ubuntu
[12:25] <un_dave> # make clean modules (as root or with sudo)
[12:25] <un_dave> # make install
[12:25] <un_dave> # depmod -a
[12:25] <un_dave> # insmod ./src/r8168.ko
[12:25] <nanonyme> what could you undo?
[12:25] <[nrx] > does anyone know a quick way of taring up x directories within /home/user/something and have the output filenames the same as the directories with .tgz?
[12:25] <stefg> lalala: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/powernowd/+bug/111375
[12:25] <Digitalia> Is there any way for me to find out why Ubuntu will only boot in recovery mode but not regularly? (Brand new install, never been in regular mode)
[12:25] <un_dave> so i try sudo make clean module, and i get
[12:26] <un_dave> make: *** No rule to make target `module'.  Stop.
[12:26] <EvaLuaTe> hello
[12:26] <GNine> ubuntu has been good to me .. for the most part .. but i find it way more rewarding than windows when i actually learn something while fixing something
[12:26] <vsayikiran> nanonyme: like if i delete,rename,cut,copy,paste or any such operation on any folder by mistake i can undo it
[12:26] <jussi01> un_dave: are you in the directory of the source?
[12:26] <EvaLuaTe> what files should i configure to get BIND doing RDNS stuff please ? :)
[12:26] <vsayikiran> nano: just like we have ctrl+Z in windows
[12:26] <un_dave> i'm in the directory, yes
[12:26] <stefg> Digitalia: does not boot at all, or does boot but not to a desktop in standard mode?
[12:26] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: nothing.. just make sure you have the conf's correct
[12:27] <vsayikiran> do we have an equivalent of ctrl+z like in windows
[12:27] <un_dave> jussi01: i am i ment to replace the word 'module' with something else?
[12:27] <EvaLuaTe> [nrx] , what are the confs please ? :)
[12:27] <spooner> stefg, w00t, i love u
[12:27] <nanonyme> vsayikiran, undo is generally something you do in text editors. unless you use root, you shouldn't need to undo
[12:27] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: to be honest, and i'm not being funny, but if you don't know what the conf's are, you shouldn't be messing around with DNS, let alone rDNS
[12:27] <jussi01> un_dave: I think maybe so. also, try to just make clean
[12:27] <sixpence> What package name would include ALL of gnome. I want to remove it.
[12:27] <EvaLuaTe> [nrx] , my ISP told me he'll delegate the class of IP's so i can set RDNS's on them, i just need to know what to ask him
[12:28] <nanonyme> that is, the problems won't be very severe
[12:28] <spooner> stefg, i hacked up the .prerm and .postrm files :)
[12:28] <EvaLuaTe> umm, ok, nvm
[12:28] <un_dave> jussi01: ok, did that. i dont think i see any error messages. what now?
[12:28] <EvaLuaTe> thanks [nrx]  =)
[12:28] <Digitalia> stefg: Won't boot at all in normal mode. Only in recovery mode (where I type this now)
[12:29] <un_dave> jussi01: make install ?
[12:29] <vsayikiran> nano: suppose i rename a file in winxp, i can undo it
[12:29] <jussi01> un_dave: make install ?
[12:29] <Digitalia> At least it has network support :P
[12:29] <jussi01> un_dave: yep
[12:29] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: read up on.. you need to do more than just edit some confs :)
[12:29] <GNine> this is not windows
[12:29] <stefg> Digitalia: what error do you get?
[12:29] <AronRaavHex> how do i reset default mouse acceleration and sensitivity in ubuntu feisty fawn?
[12:29] <GNine> jeez
[12:29] <vsayikiran> nano: why linux doesn't have any command like this
[12:29] <jussi01> un_dave: you might need sudo for that
[12:29] <Digitalia> I get no error, just a black screen.. even after 15 minutes.
[12:30] <EvaLuaTe> [nrx] , ok, i'll do some havy google-ing :P
[12:30] <Digitalia> But recovery boots just fine after i startx
[12:30] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: that's a very good idea :)
[12:30] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: are you running bind?
[12:30] <EvaLuaTe> i just thought it was as easy as editing some confs and restarting, that's why i checked in here first
[12:30] <EvaLuaTe> [nrx] , yes
[12:30] <un_dave> jussi01: where can i paste the results for you ?

[12:32] <Digitalia> I have not yet. Lemme browse that.
[12:32] <vsayikiran> heguru: my computer hangs after i restart my computer when wireless is enabled

[12:33] <un_dave> jussi01: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38440/
[12:33] <vsayikiran> heguru; when my wireless is disabled then it shut downs normally
[12:33] <Digitalia> Yea, recovery says "single" and the normal boot says "quiet" and "splash"
[12:33] <EvaLuaTe> ok, thanks again [nrx] 
[12:34] <EvaLuaTe> i was just reading the manual about it :P
[12:34] <Digitalia> I doubt the system would take more than 15 minutes to boot, though

[12:34] <un_dave> jussi01: yep. just retried too.
[12:35] <jussi01> un_dave: what does that do/give?
[12:35] <Digitalia> Awesome sauce. I'll try that. Thanks :)
[12:35] <vsayikiran> GNine; do you have any idea about this problem
[12:35] <Digitalia> Should I remove "quiet" too? Just to get a verbose startup?

[01:47] <jxxxt> Keroro, NO! Read the bot msg ubuto
[01:47] <jxxxt> ubotu
[01:48] <IdleOne> Keroro: do you have multiverse enabled? if so sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
[01:48] <Keroro> IdleOne:enabled
[01:48] <Keroro> IdleOne: installed
[01:48] <A2t3c13> i am trying to set up a new printer, when i go through set up through system(xfce) i get to where it tells me i need gutenprint-foomatic i downloaded it and even restarted and it still saying i need to install it.
[01:49] <IdleOne> Keroro: ok so you have sun-java6-jdk installed? that means your issue is solved correct?
[01:50] <Keroro> IdleOne:system said sun-java6-jdk is the newest version
[01:50] <IdleOne> Keroro: ok then
[01:50] <Spooneh> Would there be a reason if i switched to kdm/KDE from gdm/Gnome why i would lose my sound?
[01:50] <Keroro> IdleOne: but i open some java game still said i must install it
[01:51] <IdleOne> Keroro: sudo update-alternatives java

[01:51] <reverie> Evening
[01:51] <reverie> (or morning) :)
[01:51] <SuurMyy> hi there, have you heard that there would be problems w/7.04 and vim ?
[01:52] <reverie> Anyone here have any experience with Feisty / Gutsy and a Thinkpad T61?
[01:52] <DjViper> reverie: uhm, don't ask to ask, just ask if you have a specific problem :)
[01:53] <Keroro> ............
[01:53] <Keroro> ..........
[01:53] <reverie> DjViper, ok :)
[01:53] <Spooneh> Anyone know why installing the 'kubuntu-desktop' package and using kdm would lose my sound? the kmix looks a bit bare.
[01:53] <Keroro> su
[01:53] <reverie> Well I'm debating wheather I should go with 32bit or 64bit
[01:53] <murkyMurk> right, back. still feisty is not seeing my sda drive
[01:53] <DjViper> reverie: if you have a 64bit setup, thats what you'll go for
[01:54] <berent> can't ubuntu be suspended / hibernated /stand -by . It just goes off. why?
[01:54] <Keroro> oh no
[01:54] <Pici> reverie: I disagree...
[01:54] <jxxxt> Reverie, I am using 64bit and really do not see any advantage
[01:54] <Spooneh> reverie: when i tried 64bit my experience were things didnt work as much
[01:54] <Spooneh> reverie: but that was just my experience with it.
[01:54] <murkyMurk> snap 64 just gives compatibility issues
[01:54] <reverie> Last time I used 64bit on my old crappy Acer laptop, I had a LOT of problems with 3rd party acpi stuff I needed
[01:54] <reverie> and of course Flash and other things
[01:54] <berent> repost : can't ubuntu be suspended / hibernated /stand -by . It just goes off. why?
[01:54] <Pici> reverie: There are still issues with proprietary drivers/applications not having 64bit support.
[01:55] <Spooneh> reverie: my wireless crapped out when using 64bit
[01:55] <reverie> yeah
[01:55] <DjViper> berent: it can
[01:55] <jxxxt> Reverie, I would prolly stick to 32bit yes
[01:55] <reverie> think I'll go with 32bit Gutsy tribe 5
[01:55] <berent> DjViper: how?
[01:55] <Spooneh> anyone know why installing kubuntu-desktop and switching to kdm would make my sound disppear?
[01:55] <jxxxt> Reverie, Gutsy is still in beta
[01:55] <DjViper> berent: I don't know, mine can hehe
[01:55] <reverie> jxxxt, I know :)
[01:56] <jxxxt>  use feisty if you want stable ver
[01:56] <murkyMurk> upgrade from edgy to feisty...lost my 2nd hdd which is a sata drive.....not in fdisk, no errors thrown..ideas?
[01:56] <berent> DjViper : what have u done?
[01:56] <DjViper> reverie: you should use ff unless you're a 'pro' heh
[01:56] <DjViper> berent: nothinig in particular in that issue, it just works here
[01:56] <jxxxt> Reverie, OK then :))
[01:56] <reverie> DjViper, pro? er, dunno bout that, but I've been using linux on/off since 1998
[01:57] <DjViper> reverie: ah okay
[01:57] <Spooneh> ubotu: HDA Intel
[01:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hda intel - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:57] <reverie> my linux boxes usually don't have X running
[01:57] <IdleOne> reverie: so you know nothing like the rest of us :)
[01:57] <reverie> idaho45, haha
[01:57] <berent> is there any terminal command which can be invoked for system to go stand-by mode?
[01:57] <IdleOne> tab completion :)
[01:57] <reverie> ive never used linux much as a desktop O/S because i always seem to end up with /really/ funky hardware that doesn't graft
[01:57] <berent> !standby
[01:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about standby - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:58] <berent> !stand-by
[01:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about stand-by - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:58] <reverie> or its a case of 7 out of 10 devices work
[01:58] <reverie> and the 3 that don't i really need :)
[01:58] <Anlar> reverie: for dummies there is a recipe that does not usually fail. it is: intel all the way.
[01:58] <reverie> Anlar, its a THinkpad, its 99% intel
[01:58] <Ongaku> hmm...I attempted to install a plugin and I got a configure error that dbus is missing
[01:58] <reverie> except for the 4-in-1 card reader
[01:59] <Anlar> which is what, realtek?
[01:59] <erUSUL> murkyMurk: dmesg | grep ata and/or dmesg| grep sd   should show you the disks (ide devices and sata) that where discovered on boot
[01:59] <reverie> Ricoh
[01:59] <reverie> i can paste lspci if you like
[01:59] <Anlar> reverie: what doesn't work really?
[01:59] <reverie> Anlar, intel x3100 graphics controller, it works but a bit unstable
[02:00] <Ongaku> checking for dbus... configure: error: Package requirements (dbus-1 >= 0.50) were not met:
[02:00] <Ongaku> No package 'dbus-1' found
[02:00] <erUSUL> murkyMurk: were*
[02:00] <Anlar> reverie: -intel driver?
[02:00] <reverie> Anlar, yes
[02:00] <Ongaku> i tried to apt-get install and it says i have dbus and it
[02:00] <Ongaku> is current
[02:01] <jxxxt> does anyone know of a workaround for a blacklisted SIS graphics card
[02:01] <reverie> jxxxt, for what, Compiz?
[02:01] <murkyMurk> it finds ata3 ata4 ata5 ata6 using sata_nv but although by IDE drives show up after boot, my sata drive is missing
[02:01] <damjan|work> Ongaku: maybe the configure script checks in a stupid way and doesn't know that 1.0 is > 0.50
[02:01] <jxxxt> Reverie, Yes
[02:01] <Anlar> reverie: they are pretty keen on fixing the bugs so I'd report those crashes and diagnose it.. this one time at band camp.. I had an application producing buffer underruns at i810's xv implementation, locking actually the kernel. took 2 hours to get it bug fixed after I reported it
[02:01] <Ongaku> ah but how would i get past that?
[02:01] <reverie> jxxxt, you can uncomment that in /usr/bin/compiz i think it is
[02:02] <reverie> Anlar, yep, its a very new chipset, so i know it'll take time :)
[02:02] <jxxxt> Reverie, Then I get function??
[02:02] <Anlar> reverie: yeah, very new. I wish I had that chipset
[02:02] <Ongaku> it's just a simple pidgin rhythmbox plugin this shouldn't all freak out lol
[02:02] <murkyMurk> and anyway, the original edgy has no beef with the sata....it IS a feisty problem
[02:03] <reverie> jxxxt, possibly
[02:03] <reverie> jxxxt, tho, if it's blacklisted, it might be black listed for a good reason :)
[02:03] <keito> is there any way to check what is wrong with my pc.... randomly the pc beeps internally and there is a momentary freeze followed by what sounds like a click from the hard drive.  bad blocks, hard drive failing or power supply on its way out I need verification.  SOMEONE MUST KNOW how to do some system diagnostics with ubuntu????
[02:03] <jxxxt> Reverie, Thanks I will try nothing to lose any way :-)
[02:03] <reverie> jxxxt, switch it on with a long stick :)
[02:04] <[nrx] > is there a gui rar tool?
[02:04] <Ongaku> isn't there a system monitor thinger?
[02:04] <[nrx] > that has 'shell extensions'
[02:04] <keito> ps: this happened with xp beforehand but more frequently (though in ubuntu it is happening more & more)
[02:04] <jxxxt> Reverie, Is it soppused to spark and fizz??
[02:04] <[nrx] > nm
[02:04] <[nrx] > sorted
[02:04] <jxxxt> suppsed
[02:04] <Ongaku> keito, that sounds bad
[02:04] <reverie> jxxxt, have you been over clocking again?? :)
[02:05] <Ongaku> sounds like your HDD might be failing
[02:05] <[nrx] > keito: time for a new pc!
[02:05] <[nrx] > or hdd at least
[02:05] <Digitalia> Is there a way to figure out what settings I need to add to my GRUB menu.lst to get my XP partition to boot?
[02:05] <Ongaku> HDD are cheap atleast these days
[02:05] <GNine> time for a system reboot
[02:05] <reverie> Anlar, lspci sent to you in pvt, as not to flood #
[02:05] <jxxxt> Reverie, No This sis chipset is a night mare really!!
[02:05] <reverie> if its not reading your SATA drive, you can put SATA/IDE compatability mode on
[02:06] <void^> keito: first take a look at 'dmesg'. if you suspect hdd failure, look at 'smartctl -a /dev/hdX' (install smartmontools first)
[02:06] <keito> I've had new hard drive after new hard drive, I'm thinking that the power supply might not be capable of powering the system anymore
[02:06] <murkyMurk> keito: sounds like a buffer overrun....stuck key maybe?
[02:06] <reverie> jxxxt, I *hate* SiS.. have so much crap with them
[02:06] <keito> murkyMurk: doubt that
[02:06] <Ongaku> but my friend was trying to get me to put unstable repostories in my sources.list, he said it would find dbus or something
[02:06] <keito> void^: will do that asap
[02:06] <murkyMurk> keito: just cheaper to look first and buy new hdd second
[02:06] <jxxxt> Reverie, *Agrees
[02:06] <berent> is there any terminal command which can be invoked for system to go stand-by mode?
[02:06] <damjan|work> Digitalia: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showpost.php?s=71754df63fb9d35958672da3865a23c6&p=1839337&postcount=5
[02:07] <keito> murkyMurk: yeah if I had a stuck key would it not ttttttttttttttttttttttttype ;0) plus i've got anew kb recently
[02:07] <[nrx] > berent: man shutdown
[02:08] <Ongaku> so how can i get past the ./configure saying I don't have dbus?
[02:08] <hmhowie> windows has just almost made me cry :(
[02:08] <soc> hi
[02:08] <Ongaku> good morning
[02:08] <Digitalia> damjan|work: Would that work if they are both on one partitioned-to-hell SATA HDD?
[02:08] <soc> is there a "usability" channel or something?
[02:08] <[nrx] > There there
[02:08] <murkyMurk> true, stillsounds like a full buffer though
[02:08] <berent> [nrx]  : no option for stand by
[02:08] <hmhowie> and i don't even use the ***ing operating system myself
[02:08] <murkyMurk> reverie: how do i turn that mode on?
[02:08] <damjan|work> Digitalia: yes
[02:08] <[nrx] > berent: it aint possible
[02:09] <reverie> murkyMurk, which mode?
[02:09] <gorski> a program for extracting cd-s?
[02:09] <berent> [nrx]  : you mean i cant stop my cpu fans even when i want to go out.
[02:09] <murkyMurk> reverie: IDE compatibility
[02:09] <reverie> murkyMurk, ah, in the BIOS
[02:09] <[nrx] > berent: try http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-271234.html
[02:09] <ln-> who should be "kicked" to get a kernel-related bug report processed?
[02:09] <Pici> gorski: You mean to pull tracks off of a music cd?
[02:10] <reverie> murkyMurk, some BIOS's will list it as AHCI
[02:10] <erUSUL> Ongaku: install libdbus-1-dev and probably libdbus-glib-1-dev (gnome/gtk) or libdbus-qt-1-dev (kde/qt)
[02:10] <murkyMurk> reverie: just upgrading from rock solid edgy....nothing has changed with BIOS or hardware. only change is Feisty
[02:10] <[nrx] > he left ;/
[02:10] <reverie> murkyMurk, http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Hardware/sata.html
[02:10] <Pici> gorski: If you mean that than I suggest sound juicer.
[02:10] <reverie> murkyMurk, oh i see
[02:10] <keito> void^: http://pastebin.com/m4b7c92a7
[02:11] <reverie> murkyMurk, try boot into a liveCD of Feisty to see if you can acess your SATA
[02:11] <reverie> then you should be able to determine if it's a config problem or  not
[02:11] <gorski> Pici: any other, i cannot grab tags on sound juicer!
[02:11] <Quak3r> hello there!! how can I extract the files of compacted files?? (if they have many parts??) thank you
[02:12] <[nrx] > tags?
[02:12] <murkyMurk> reverie: from memory, fesity CD only installs from CLi mode...had to manually edit fstab last time. I can still access SATA if I boot back to edgy
[02:12] <keito> void^: this is the dmesg output..... http://pastebin.com/m4b2edd4a
[02:12] <Digitalia> I'm kinda confused about the whole hd0,1 setting. I only have one HD in this PC and the XP partition is mounted at /dev/sda5 (While ubuntu is mounted at sda7). Would my XP boot be hd0,5?
[02:12] <reverie> murkyMurk, hm

[02:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about transcoding - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[02:13] <Pici> !msgthebot | keito
[02:13] <ubotu> keito: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[02:13] <reverie> murkyMurk, sata works fine in feisty for me
[02:14] <keito> how do you find out what is available !
[02:14] <murkyMurk> reverie: it HAS to be a problem with the feisty kernel implementation of sata_nv specific to the ASUA M2N
[02:14] <reverie> murkyMurk, what was the mount point in edgy? /dev/sdaX ?
[02:14] <gorski> aha
[02:14] <Pici> keito: Try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:14] <reverie> Mr-Snick, done a kernel upgrade?
[02:15] <murkyMurk> reverie: was always /dev/sda1 with IDE's in a /dev/hdax chain
[02:15] <reverie> er murkyMurk even
[02:15] <keito> Pici: there's a command to find out what subjects the bot know about though isn't there?
[02:15] <murkyMurk> reverie: I've already overriden the UUID in fstab with an old fashioned /dev/sda1...didn't help
[02:16] <keito> void^: can you make anything of the dmesg output?
[02:16] <Pici> keito: That website lists all the topics that the bot knows, also you can use `search something` if you are looking for somethign specific, but please only do that in a private message with the bot.
[02:16] <reverie> murkyMurk, hm
[02:16] <void^> keito: hrm, perhaps smart doesn't work over sata, i have no experience with that.. can you try the disk in another system?
[02:16] <reverie> murkyMurk, try set the BIOS to sata compabitlity mode for now and see?
[02:17] <murkyMurk> reverie: i'll give it a go, hang 5
[02:17] <keito> void^: this has happened with more than this disk.  the more disk's plugged in the more it happens too.  thus a power issue (which can lead to bad blocks) is possible perhaps
[02:17] <Digitalia> Would my partition on /dev/sda5 also be written as hd0,5 in the GRUB menu.lst?
[02:18] <void^> keito: well, that makes sense.. i've had a similar issue with some scsi disks and cheap power supplies (the disks were just restarting randomly..)
[02:18] <keito> void^
[02:18] <reverie> arg
[02:18] <keito> void^: this power supply is mega cheap and mega old
[02:18] <reverie> where are the Gutsy isos???
[02:18] <Pici> reverie: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
[02:19] <reverie> yeah
[02:19] <reverie> im looking for the local mi9rror here
[02:19] <reverie> (I'm in South Africa)
[02:19] <Pici> reverie: Ah..
[02:19] <void^> keito: i finally decided to abandon my tradition of buying the cheapest available power supply and haven't had any poblems again ;)
[02:19] <mm23> !adsl
[02:19] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[02:19] <reverie> (( where Mr Shuttleworth hails from ))
[02:20] <keito> void^: yeah, that sounds like a good idea, although my friend just had a hyper power supply burn up on him that cost 70+.... OUCH!
[02:20] <jxxxt> Reverie, There is no specific blacklist for the SIS just a reference to ATI (I think it is a ATI mirage)
[02:20] <kkathman> is there any way in evolution to get incoming mail to check against my address book like kmail does ?
[02:21] <keito> void^: sata should run just fine so confused, perhaps its cos I tried the whole disk ie: /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2????
[02:21] <void^> keito: well, i don't touch those overpriced things with "gaming" labels on them.. smartctl is only interested in disks, not partitions
[02:21] <[nrx] > is there any linux app like daemontools available? for instance, i have a .bin and .cue that i want access to without having to burn it
[02:22] <murkyMurk> reverie: no AHCI or compatibility mode options in BIOS
[02:22] <Pici> !iso | [nrx] 
[02:22] <ubotu> [nrx] : To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[02:22] <murkyMurk> reverie: it's a Phoenix BIOS
[02:22] <[nrx] > pici i presume that will work with bin's aswell?
[02:22] <reverie> murkyMurk, there might be a SATA Mode: AHCI / Compatible
[02:22] <void^> things like videocds can be played by mplayer/vlc directly too
[02:22] <Pici> [nrx] : no, you will need to convert them to ISOs

[02:23] <reverie> jxxxt, there's a line something like 'blacklist pciids = $1
[02:23] <reverie> jxxxt, something to that effect, comment it out and try compiz again
[02:24] <reverie> murkyMurk, hm odd
[02:24] <reverie> hey guys, I'll bbs, gotta help the lovely lady with the dishes :)
[02:24] <murkyMurk> reverie: yeah, the more i scratch feisty the more i think 'borked'
[02:24] <IdleOne> someone know the key-combo to close a tab in xchat?
[02:24] <void^> keito: yeah, but you can also get it to print its error log and a table with read failures and other data, comes in quite handy when guessing where the problem might be
[02:25] <jxxxt> Reverie, Thanks seee you later
[02:25] <keito> void^: perhaps there is a smart option in my bios, no?
[02:25] <void^> keito: maybe, usually enabled by default i think
[02:26] <iownyou> can somebody help me out with my graphics card
[02:26] <keito> void^: missed a crucial argument.... smartctl -i -d ata /dev/sda
[02:27] <void^> keito: ah.. i had no idea about that :)
[02:27] <iownyou> can somebody help me with a ATI RADEON 9550
[02:27] <keito> void^: still doesn't support error counter logging.....http://pastebin.com/m50de2233
[02:28] <iownyou> come on!!! i know somebody sees what i wrote
[02:28] <iownyou> theres gotta be like 1000 people in here
[02:28] <murkyMurk> iownyou: sell it and buy an NVidia
[02:28] <void^> keito: nothing else with -a instead of -i?
[02:29] <Morrowyn> iownyou, maybe your question should be more specific
[02:29] <Pici> !ask | iownyou
[02:29] <ubotu> iownyou: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:29] <Digitalia> Would my partition on /dev/sda5 also be written as hd0,5 in the GRUB menu.lst? (Sorry for repeating)
[02:29] <Morrowyn> Digitalia i think, iirc
[02:29] <Morrowyn> so^
[02:29] <sjoerd> Digitalia: hd0,4 probably
[02:29] <void^> Digitalia: no, (0,4)
[02:29] <void^> *hd0,4
[02:29] <Morrowyn> :)
[02:29] <iownyou> murkymurk how much can i get for mine and what does a NVidia

[02:30] <EbilPhish> Digitalia:  You can test, type 'grub' as root then 'geometry (hd0)' it should give you a list of partition types as grub sees em

[02:31] <keito> DrAk0: i think avidemux works as does lives

[02:33] <void^> keito: hm, ok, that doesn't really help very much i think.. it just seems very, very unlikely such a new disk would produce so many read/seek errors on its own :)
[02:33] <void^> keito: bbl
[02:33] <panosru> EbilPhish, i followed this: http://kopete.kde.org/svnaccess.php i try to patch kopete with emoticon manager from here: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Kopete+Emoticons+Manager?content=54968

[02:33] <blmartin777> Is there a good network simulator progrram for linux?
[02:33] <DamienCassou> bye
[02:33] <panosru> EbilPhish, do i need to configure first?
[02:34] <EbilPhish> panosru:  You probably need to install the build environment
[02:34] <kst> will it be possible to upgrade from feisty to gutsy without major hassle? is it even recommended for normal desktop users? i dont feel like spending ages modding my feisty installation to then lose it all with the upgrade :)
[02:34] <EbilPhish> panosru:  You normally do ./configure befoure a make, depends on the build system though
[02:34] <iownyou> keito: it meens be back later
[02:34] <keito> void^: does this "Raw_Read_Error_Rate     0x000f   060" mean i have had 60 errors of this type?
[02:34] <panosru> EbilPhish, i'm on Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty 64bit
[02:34] <keito> void^: righto
[02:35] <murkyMurk> iownyou: okay given up on Feisty...how do I undo all that the update did?
[02:35] <EbilPhish> panosru:  apt-get built essential
[02:35] <EbilPhish> panosru:  apt-get build-essential
[02:35] <jrib> kst: yes and yes.  Update manager will prompt you when gutsy is released
[02:35] <iownyou> no i dont give up
[02:35] <kst> awesome, thanks jrib =)
[02:35] <iownyou> i already have it working
[02:35] <panosru> EbilPhish, i got: E: Invalid operation build-essential
[02:35] <iownyou> but its basically always in safe graphics mode
[02:35] <iownyou> i have a driver problem
[02:36] <EbilPhish> panosru:  'apt-get install build-essential'
[02:36] <murkyMurk> sudo apt-get install build-essential

[02:36] <panosru> noideayet, what did i say?
[02:36] <Mr-Snick> reverie: not even sure on that one lol
[02:37] <panosru> EbilPhish, build-essential is already the newest version.
[02:37] <EbilPhish> panosru:  You probally want to 'sudo apt-get build-dep thePackage' to ensure the development dependencies/libs are installed are installed
[02:37] <noideayet> panosru, "oh darn"
[02:37] <panosru> noideayet, oh is that bad word? (sorry i'm Greek)
[02:38] <curious101> how do i know if i already have a package installed using the apt-get program?
[02:38] <reverie> back!
[02:38] <noideayet> panosru, some consider it to be so. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_letter_words
[02:39] <murkyMurk> well I'm english and I would call it a bad word...but this is not my server
[02:39] <panosru> noideayet, ok sorry
[02:39] <reverie> murkyMurk, any luck?
[02:39] <curious101> how do i know if i already have a package installed using the apt-get program?
[02:39] <noideayet> panosru, no problem.
[02:39] <murkyMurk> soz would NOT call it a bad word
[02:39] <murkyMurk> reverie: nope :-(

[02:40] <murkyMurk> reverie: is there an auto way to undo all that the auto-updater has done from the CLi?
[02:40] <reverie> murkyMurk, not that i'm aware of
[02:40] <iownyou> murkyMurk what doy ou need help with
[02:40] <reverie> murkyMurk, i very seldom upgrade, i normally reinstall and make it a learning experience
[02:40] <EbilPhish> panosru:  'apt-get install autotools-dev' if you still need it
[02:41] <IdleOne> murkyMurk: what are you trying to downgrade?
[02:41] <murkyMurk> reverie: figures
[02:41] <murkyMurk> IdleOne: from feisty back to edgy
[02:41] <panosru> EbilPhish, ok installed it now :D
[02:41] <hawk> murkyMurk: Hmm, why is that?
[02:41] <Spoonah> anyone know how to fix HDA Intel based sound cards? ive tried the HowTo guide on the ubuntu site
[02:41] <panosru> EbilPhish, now try to make ?
[02:42] <EbilPhish> panosru:  './configure' first
[02:42] <reverie> murkyMurk, is the sata controller listed in lspci?
[02:42] <IdleOne> murkyMurk: ahhh well that is a tricky one. some ppl change sources.list back to edgy from feisty but I dont recommend it. has worked but probably wont
[02:42] <murkyMurk> 'cos feisty refuses to see my sata hdd sda
[02:42] <jxxxt> Reverie, FYI when I uncommented the blacklist it failed to find a whitelisted driver
[02:42] <panosru> EbilPhish, i got bash: ./configure: No such file or directory :(
[02:42] <reverie> jxxxt, ah, you might habve to put the pci device string into the whitelist
[02:42] <reverie> jxxxt, but i'm not sure how
[02:42] <murkyMurk> reverie: hang on...just rebooting it
[02:42] <EbilPhish> panosru:  Ok, then just make, kde uses cmake so its a little diffrent from normal
[02:42] <reverie> jxxxt, google for your sis card and compiz?
[02:42] <IdleOne> murkyMurk: best bet is to backup your important data and reinstall
[02:42] <hawk> murkyMurk: Booting the old kernel doesn't work either?
[02:42] <keito> if anybody can understand smartmontools outputs then can you please enlighten me on what my hard drive is doing? cheers http://pastebin.com/m3142f540
[02:42] <Spoonah> My sound card is "Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)". I have rebiult and installed the latest ALSA, and tried different settings in the alsabase modprobe file. any other ideas?
[02:43] <murkyMurk> Hawk: boots back to CLiu
[02:43] <murkyMurk> Hawk: sda1 is ther but getting nvidia back on is obviously a pain
[02:43] <reverie> Spoonah, feisty?
[02:43] <Spoonah> reverie: correct
[02:44] <jxxxt> Reverie, The guy who writes the sis drivers has not even bothered with this card. I think I might be done mate :-))
[02:44] <panosru> EbilPhish, ok installing cmake right now. The patch for emoticons manager when i have to apply it? before make? or after?
[02:44] <reverie> Spoonah, what laptop ?
[02:44] <noideayet> Hod does one get an ubuntu hostmask?
[02:44] <Spoonah> reverie: Toshia Qosmio G30

[02:44] <panosru> EbilPhish, oh so i have to apply it now right?
[02:44] <EbilPhish> panosru:  Yep
[02:44] <Spoonah> reverie: Ive had sound going before, but i forgot how. this is a fresh install. also i just installed KDE. i dunno if tht had anything to do with it
[02:45] <reverie> Spoonah, if you run 'amixer' from the console?
[02:45] <Spoonah> reverie: i only get master and pcm
[02:46] <reverie> Spoonah, and if you increase the volume there?
[02:46] <void^> keito: no, the actual absolute value is printed below "raw_value". "value" "and threshold" represent what the drive thinks about this. basically the drive says the seek failure rate is 69, and if it reaches 30 it thinks it will be dead soon. these problems might just be caused by power failures though.
[02:46] <Spoonah> reverie: yeah, full volume, no sound
[02:46] <reverie> Spoonah, bit of an oxymoron there :)
[02:47] <reverie> Spoonah, in Gnome, goto the sound preferences and check that your card and correct devices are selected
[02:47] <keito> void^: I think a new power supply is probably the best way to go from here on in, what say you?
[02:47] <Spoonah> reverie: Im in KDE
[02:47] <reverie> if amixer sees Master and PCM, that should mean alsa's seing your card fine
[02:47] <reverie> Spoonah, hm
[02:47] <keito> void^: then try that test again
[02:47] <IdleOne> Spoonah: try #kubuntu they might help more
[02:47] <DrAk0> keito, worked as i wanted, ty.
[02:48] <murkyMurk> back
[02:48] <keito> DrAk0: np
[02:48] <Spoonah> IdleOne: Maybe, i dont think its a kubuntu specific issue, but ill try there
[02:48] <reverie> murkyMurk, wb :)
[02:48] <murkyMurk> reverie: yes, lspci lists MCP55 SATA Controller
[02:48] <void^> keito: i suppose so. it might be a problem with the controller too, but since the problem occurs on windows too it would have to be a hardware problem.. seems unlikely
[02:48] <IdleOne> Spoonah: only because they can give the correct GUI path to follow I would think
[02:48] <reverie> murkyMurk, and when you try modprobe the relevant module, does 'dmesg' say anything?
[02:48] <Phlogi> how can I get this lan card to work with feisty? http://pastebin.ca/709135
[02:49] <void^> keito: and with sata damaged/low quality cables can be ruled out as well
[02:49] <z0rz> How could I make grep only echo the first line it fines and nothing else after that?
[02:49] <murkyMurk> reverie: modprobe sata_nv produces no output
[02:49] <keito> void^: we shall see.... thanks for all your help though, much appreciated.  ps: why you say cables can be ruled out with sata?
[02:50] <reverie> murkyMurk, okay, and ytour last few lines in 'dmesg' ?
[02:50] <murkyMurk> reverie: stuff about eth0 and no IPV6 routers....allnormal
[02:51] <reverie> 'hdparm -i /dev/sda' ?
[02:51] <void^> keito: compared to old style ide cables sata cables should be much more reliable, right?
[02:51] <murkyMurk> reverie: even df -h ignores my sata drive
[02:51] <murkyMurk> reverie: hdparm isn't compatible with sda drives is it?
[02:51] <reverie> murkyMurk, it is
[02:51] <reverie> murkyMurk,  just run that and see wht it says
[02:52] <murkyMurk> reverie: /dev/sda: No such
[02:52] <LjL-Temp> !info sdparm
[02:52] <ubotu> sdparm: Output and modify SCSI device parameters. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.98-1 (feisty), package size 94 kB, installed size 324 kB
[02:52] <keito> void^: search me ;0) suppose because its not such a huge ribbon-type cable then yes.  I'm no expert though ;0) used to think I knew quite a bit about computers, then I grew up! lol
[02:52] <reverie> hm
[02:52] <deathmas> sup up all
[02:52] <Spoonah> reverie: I have the device as 'autodetect' ive tried setting it to use 'ALSA', any other ideas?
[02:53] <deathmas> can anyone help me out a bit
[02:53] <keito> void^: what is it that dmesg actually does?
[02:53] <murkyMurk> reverie:  and it'sright :-) ls | grep sda in /dev gives no o/p
[02:53] <reverie> Spoonah, not sure, thinking.. :)
[02:53] <LjL-Temp> z0rz: grep -m 1
[02:53] <murkyMurk> dmesh relays kernel messages for de-bug purposes
[02:53] <void^> keito: ide cables suffer from a number of problems.. bulky, easily damaged, much interference/low signal quality..
[02:53] <kkathman> deathmas:  whats the issue ?
[02:53] <deathmas> I got a 20 gig drive I installed kubuntu  7 and i added a few packages and world of warcraft but now i get hard drive full
[02:54] <reverie> murkyMurk, ls sd*
[02:54] <reverie> murkyMurk, maybe it's on sdc or something
[02:54] <keito> void^: shielding is better on sata for sure
[02:54] <deathmas> a full install of kubuntu and warcraft would not fill 20 gig can I get some help to make some room
[02:54] <murkyMurk> reverie: nice try, saME result
[02:54] <void^> keito: dmesg prints the kernel message buffer.. device driver status messages and so on gothere
[02:54] <deathmas> clearing temp pakeages and what not
[02:54] <kkathman> deathmas:  sounds like maybe you made your home partition too small

[02:55] <dgjones> !gutsy | nico__
[02:55] <jotham> is there a way to mount a windows share using gnome desktop nautalus or whatever? i want to do the equivilent of smbmount/mount -t smbfs visually/graphically, or something similar so i can access remote files without the accessing tool needing to be able to impliment smb://

[03:02] <deathmas> when I delete trash bin is it gone or is it just there hiding

[03:04] <IdleOne> aguitel: apt-get remove -purge package
[03:04] <astro76> deathmas, when you empty the trash it's gone... one way to free space is to do "sudo apt-get clean" which will delete downloaded packages files which were already installed (do "du -sh /var/cache/apt/archives" to see how much space will be freed)
[03:04] <schallstrom_> deathmas: use "du" command to determine what is eating up your space
[03:04] <astro76> deathmas, besides that we don't know what you installed or how much space wow takes up either ;)
[03:04] <deathmas> schallstrom_: I installed kubuntu 7.04 and world of warcraft and a few addons to the base install and my drive is full

[03:06] <schallstrom_> deathmas: dunno, use "df" and "du" to examine your hard drive disk consumption
[03:06] <EbilPhish> panosru:  Also try autoconf --version and see that it is found and output the version it should
[03:06] <deathmas> WoW is 6gig
[03:06] <keito> monkeyBox: don't know if it'd be any help but smartmontools (as I've just found out) can help you diagnose HDD fails

[03:07] <keito> monkeyBox: sounds like Hardware/driver issue related to tv card perhaps
[03:07] <schallstrom_> deathmas:  or the "disk usae analyzer" in "accessories"
[03:07] <EbilPhish> panosru:  kk, well it sounds like the cvs.sh script might be broken
[03:07] <deathmas> ok does ubuntu use swap space on its own if I dont make a swap partition

[03:08] <rsk> deathmas: no it wont
[03:08] <schallstrom_> deathmas: it depends on what you did during installation
[03:08] <EbilPhish> panosru:  gedit admin/cvs.sh
[03:08] <erUSUL> deathmas: no, afaik
[03:08] <keito> monkeyBox: dmesg (for "diagnostic message") is a command on Unix-like operating systems that prints the message buffer of the kernel
[03:09] <fevel> hello
[03:09] <keito> monkeyBox: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/
[03:09] <monkeyBox> keito: yeah, I can't use dmesg b/c it clears out upon restart.  And since it crashes _hard_, I can't view dmesg at the time of crash
[03:09] <erUSUL> deathmas: may something is spaming your logs? check the disk usga of /var/log/ (du -hs /var/log/)
[03:09] <erUSUL> deathmas: maybe*
[03:10] <erUSUL> deathmas: also check /var/cache/apt/
[03:10] <fevel> Im having dificulties installing wine on ubuntu 64 bits
[03:10] <jugimaster> speaking of dmesg,  what exactly does this mean:  "[   55.590601]  wlan0: starting scan
[03:10] <jugimaster> [   56.863851]  wlan0: scan completed
[03:10] <jugimaster> "
[03:10] <EbilPhish> panosru:  Looks like ./configure is suposed to be done on the package
[03:10] <fevel> can someone guide me in the right direction?
[03:10] <keito> monkeyBox: oh dear 80/
[03:10] <deathmas> only 34k
[03:10] <EbilPhish> panosru:  Maybe try it in the admin directory
[03:10] <erUSUL> jugimaster: some script has make a iwconfig wlan0 scan ??
[03:10] <z0rz> Could I grep something from a webpage without having to download it?  Like through the output of wget http://example.com into wget without having to download it locally?
[03:11] <jugimaster> erUSUL: is there a way to completely disable my wlan chip?
[03:11] <void^> jugimaster: device is scanning for networks.. if you see it a lot, blame networkmanager
[03:11] <keito> monkeyBox: hope you get it sorted chap, thats about as far as my knowledge can take you ;0)
[03:11] <jugimaster> erUSUL: i think it may be causing some problems for my normal connection..
[03:11] <EbilPhish> panosru:  Or whichever part of the package is the bit your compiling
[03:11] <z0rz> Maybe the same way you can download a key for sources without having to save it locally .. (Goes to look for ubuntu source key)
[03:11] <deathmas> deathmas: there are guides i used to install
[03:11] <monkeyBox> keito: thanks :)
[03:11] <keito> monkeyBox: np
[03:11] <erUSUL> z0rz: you will dl it locally either way but if you want to avoid creating a file pipe the autput of wget to stdin
[03:11] <deathmas> deathmas: what prob u haveing the apt-get will install it
[03:11] <curious101> !rsync
[03:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rsync - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:12] <keito> monkeyBox: ps: did you not fancy LinuxMCE instead of mythbuntu?
[03:12] <z0rz> erUSUL I think I could just do a wget -O- http://example.com | grep foobar -
[03:12] <erUSUL> z0rz: wget url -O - | grep string
[03:12] <z0rz> :D
[03:12] <z0rz> I just found it on my own site...
[03:13] <keito> monkeyBox: mythbuntu is still in alpha so maybe related to that also?
[03:13] <erUSUL> jugimaster: are you using network manager?
[03:13] <monkeyBox> keito: no, I had mythtv running on gentoo prior to that.  same problem
[03:13] <jugimaster> erUSUL: not that i know of..  i'm a new user
[03:13] <keito> monkeyBox: rules that out then
[03:13] <monkeyBox> keito: re: linuxMCE:  I'd much prefer mythtv over that :-p
[03:14] <jugimaster> erUSUL: it's just that my wired network connection keeps getting jammed..   and i have no clue as to what might be causing it
[03:14] <keito> monkeyBox: you moved from gentoo to ubuntu, I always thought it was supposed to be the other way round ;0) lol

[03:14] <whileimhere> anyone have any suggestions for alternative photo-media management tools aside from Digikam and F-Spot?
[03:14] <Phlogi> I installed a hp color laserjet 1600 with cups and used the hp://usb device. The test page looks perfect, but when I print from kde the colors are wrong. I looks like C and B are interchanged. Any idea? Where should I ask?
[03:14] <rexy_> hmm what was the channel for  ubuntu-dev again
[03:14] <erUSUL> jugimaster: go to System>Admin>Ntework and disable the wifi connection
[03:14] <keito> whileimhere: picasa?
[03:14] <darkchr0n0s>  what are the values of SHMConfig ? 0/1 or Enabled/Disabled ??
[03:15] <rexy_> /Join #ubuntu+1
[03:15] <monkeyBox> keito: heh, nope.  I got tired of compiling everything.  Plus, I like how everything just works automatically in ubuntu...
[03:15] <darkchr0n0s> monkeyBox, it doesn't work tjhat easity
[03:15] <keito> rexy_: #ubuntu-devel ?
[03:15] <darkchr0n0s> i wasted a whole day getting compiz working
[03:15] <rexy_> keito it was ubuntu+1
[03:15] <rexy_> i just cant type properly, heh
[03:16] <jugimaster> erUSUL: i have tried to uncheck the box for "enable roaming mode"..   - first it says that the network was "disconnected", and after a moment, it happily announces that it's back online..
[03:16] <whileimhere> Does Picasa run well on Linux? Its closed source isnt it?
[03:16] <panosru> EbilPhish, ok i did it, they had AUTOCONF_VERSION=`$AUTOCONF --version | head -n 1` instead of AUTOCONF_VERSION=`autoconf --version | head -n 1` but now i need autoheader lool and sudo apt-get install autoheader does not found any packages
[03:16] <monkeyBox> darkchr0n0s: compared to gentoo, it does :-)
[03:16] <keito> monkeyBox: I'm more than happy with ubuntu (even though its not* perfect) it beats xp for a computing experience any day
[03:16] <darkchr0n0s> monkeyBox, i just switched from F7 to ubuntu
[03:16] <jugimaster> erUSUL: in other words, my choice gets automatically cancelled..  :)
[03:16] <erUSUL> whileimhere: well it comes bundled with an adhoc version of wine so it can run on linux...
[03:16] <keito> rexy_: cool ;0)~
[03:17] <erUSUL> whileimhere: i would stick with f-spot
[03:17] <monkeyBox> darkchr0n0s: ick,  I hate anything that smells of red-hat
[03:17] <EbilPhish> panosru:  autoheader is part of autoconf, maybe you need to do the same thing in the file for that too
[03:17] <monkeyBox> RPM's suck
[03:17] <z0rz> Hmm You can't have a multiple `commands` within each other can you? grep div `wget -O file `grep site sitelist.dat``
[03:17] <keito> whileimhere: should run fine (i use f-spot though)
[03:17] <darkchr0n0s> but yum and rpm work fine for a newbie
[03:17] <darkchr0n0s> they are easier imo
[03:17] <rexy_> gentoo is not very green, think of all the wasted clockcycles spent compiling ;)
[03:18] <Olav> hello
[03:18] <jrib> z0rz: use $() instead of `` and then you can nest
[03:18] <sc|martin> hello. i need a small and light ubuntu version only with a console, apt and ssh. no alsa, bluetooth and all the other stuff.
[03:18] <Kagee> sc|martin: ubuntu server?
[03:18] <erUSUL> jugimaster: do not what may be cousing that behavior... sorry
[03:18] <z0rz> jrib: Thanks .. I think this is the 3rd time you've helped me in the passed month :D
[03:18] <TwigEther> sc|martin: ubuntu server?
[03:18] <panosru> EbilPhish, yeap, worked, although i took and some lines like this: acinclude.m4:3744: the serial number must appear before any macro definition
[03:18] <jugimaster> erUSUL: ok, thanks for trying :)
[03:18] <z0rz> jrib: Do you frequent irssi?
[03:18] <sc|martin> ubuntu server is also > 500mb :(
[03:18] <jrib> z0rz: yeah
[03:18] <deathmas> how can I get du to give me a txt file
[03:19] <z0rz> Haha yeah.. You always have the tehcnical answers ;D Thanks!
[03:19] <deathmas> so I can chekc it
[03:19] <whileimhere> I want to use f-Spot but I keep running into issues with it. What I would love to get is a media manager that handles all the things like video and photos
[03:19] <panosru> EbilPhish, ok runing the ./configure --enable-debug now :D
[03:19] <erUSUL> deathmas: just pioe the output to a file
[03:19] <rexy_> sc|martin: if it must be smaller use a tiny distro, or make it from scratch ?
[03:19] <TwigEther> sc|martin: have you looked into debootstrap?
[03:19] <erUSUL> deathmas: du -hs /some/folder > du.txt
[03:19] <sc|martin> TwigEther: no, i'll googgle :-)

[03:19] <Olav> Can anyone help me finding a driver for ATI X1600 (for laptops) on the normal Ubuntu
[03:20] <darkchr0n0s> Olav, install drivers from ati.amd.com
[03:20] <erUSUL> deathmas: you can do the same with pretty every unix command. pipes are a *powerfull* unix feature
[03:20] <panosru> EbilPhish, lol now stacked on final step! pfff make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop. does this tell something to you? (btw thanks for support)
[03:20] <deathmas> how to i pipe it
[03:20] <keito> Olav: does the restricted driver not work?
[03:20] <ubuntuEdgy> can any one help me pair my bluetooth devices
[03:20] <deathmas> du | >> du.txt
[03:20] <zetheroo> is anyone here running compiz-fusion in Ubuntu Feisty?
[03:20] <keito> zetheroo: yes
[03:21] <nanonyme> deathmas, why use a pipe?
[03:21] <jrib> deathmas: du > du.txt
[03:21] <schallstrom_> deathmas: or just pipe it to less du | less
[03:21] <sc|martin> rexy_: tiny distro's allways have problems with the old hardware on my thinkpad. ubuntu not.

[03:22] <keito> zetheroo: does all else work? I run a x800
[03:22] <LjL> administrator: it's installed by default as far as i know.
[03:22] <Olav> guess so
[03:22] <curious101> ah
[03:22] <zetheroo> keito: I got it all working .... except any of the Desktop stuff....
[03:22] <sc|martin> rexy_: less than possible, much as need ;-)

[03:23] <grysille> Hey everyone. Trying to install Kubuntu 7.04 here. But when I insert the live cd, kdm/kde does not start. The kdm and xorg logs does not report any errors (besides some missing fonts and some error with wacom input device which is not there). syslog reports as the last line an abnormal termination of the kdm greeter.
[03:23] <administrator> im new gues
[03:23] <keito> administrator: isn't that there by default!
[03:23] <grysille> any ideas what I can do?
[03:23] <keito> zetheroo: what drivers are you using?
[03:23] <administrator> i want ask ?
[03:23] <curious101> grysille, have you verified the md5sum?
[03:23] <mc44> Olav: did you try using the System -> Administration -> Restricted Manager first?
[03:23] <administrator> please help me 1
[03:23] <zetheroo> keito: fglrx
[03:23] <Olav> NO
[03:23] <LjL> administrator, i think i've answered
[03:23] <grysille> curious101: no I haven't, but I successfully installed kubuntu from this cd on another pc
[03:24] <curious101> ah, ok.

[03:24] <Burn> hello, is it possible to have an external screen on my laptop and disable the mainscreen?
[03:24] <Olav> How can I open the .run file from amd
[03:24] <keito> zetheroo: I'm using the open-source ati drivers
[03:24] <curious101> Burn, maybe both
[03:24] <mc44> Olav: you should try the restricted manager first, it's easier and less likely to break with a kernel update...
[03:24] <z0rz> I wonder how inefficient this command is: http://pastebin.com/m3c3bac3 (It automatically downloads the latest version of mobinfo (or any addon I specify) from curse.com)
[03:24] <zetheroo> keito: ok... but what did you have to do to get the cube working?
[03:24] <zetheroo> keito: like what are the commands you use?

[03:25] <grysille> curious101: you think it's worthwile trying to install from the alternative install cd and hoping that it works when installed?
[03:25] <LjL> administrator: type  /join #help
[03:25] <rexy_> sc|martin: well i dont know that much about pruning ubuntu, you can probably trim some fat, but most likely stuff will start to break sooner or later, so get a bigger disk :)?, or spend a lot of work installing stuff by hand i guess?
[03:25] <carlosV2> hello, somebody can help me to config mi IRDA?
[03:25] <keito> administrator: firestarter is a GUI frontend for iptables though if you don't know what you're doing then perhaps you should do some research
[03:25] <LjL> administrator: there is nobody in there, however
[03:25] <Olav> where do I get the restricted manager
[03:25] <keito> zetheroo: i use ccsm to manage the settings
[03:25] <MrPink> LjL thanks ;)

[03:25] <keito> zetheroo: have you installed that? plus what repo are you using?
[03:25] <mc44> Olav: on the menu bar: system -> administration - restricted manager
[03:26] <EbilPhish> panosru:  First you need to find it, so 'find -name "*thefilename*"'
[03:26] <curious101> grysille: what's an alternative install CD?

[03:27] <erUSUL> !gutsy | bernier
[03:27] <grysille> curious101: see e.g. http://ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/feisty/ . It's a cd with just the console installer (no live graphical system)
[03:27] <panosru> EbilPhish, i took this: ./kopete i typed "find -name kopete" don't know if this is
[03:27] <reverie> Olav, sh ./command.run
[03:27] <jrib> Olav: what are you trying to install?
[03:27] <dijungal> samba.... samba is for Linux clients windows servers
[03:27] <rexy_> sc|martin: ah so it's internal memory then
[03:27] <carlosV2> somebody know how to configure IRDA port?
[03:27] <dijungal> i'm talking all Linux domain

[03:27] <dai_> do you print a pdf so that it prints the bleeds as well
[03:27] <LjL> Olav, why don't you follow the sound advice of others and install the drivers from the official repositories, instead?
[03:27] <Olav> the ATI x1600 drivers from amd.com (i Downloaded a run file)
[03:28] <murkyMurk> dijungal: yep, it also runs as a domain controller
[03:28] <BleedingMoon> i just install "fasm" on my u ubuntu. how i open it?
[03:28] <rexy_> sc|martin: i'm guessing they use a tiny/pruned version of libc and X to get a small memory footprint, or just dont run many services
[03:28] <curious101> grysille: ah, I see. So no Live CD... maybe that will work for you as the issue might be related to display.
[03:28] <EbilPhish> panosru:  If it found the kopete file then its probally the right one
[03:28] <panosru> EbilPhish, make: Nothing to be done for `kopete'. pff let it go man its ok i will try amsn instead kopete :(
[03:28] <zetheroo> keito: ok I will try that.... in the meantime... I just accidentally drew on my screen and now I have this red line..... how do I get rid of it?
[03:28] <grysille> anyone else an idea why kdm could die from the live cd? safe graphics mode doesn't work either
[03:28] <keito> BleedingMoon: alt-f2 ... "fasm"???
[03:28] <XXer> I have an .avi file and i want to make a dvd from it. Anyone know a good prog for Ubuntu that will do this

[03:29] <panosru> EbilPhish, thanks man :)
[03:29] <grysille> as I said, the kdm and xorg logs does not report anything useful. syslog says abnormal termination when starting kdm greeter
[03:29] <zetheroo> keito: oh man... thanks... that was scary
[03:29] <LjL> Olav, use the Restricted Manager!
[03:29] <EbilPhish> panosru:  nps

[03:31] <jpastore> well I am crazy but this I can help =)
[03:31] <Olav> How can I open the restricted manager from ubuntu 6
[03:31] <rexy_> jpastore: yeah
[03:31] <zetheroo> keito: I changed the virtual size to 4 .... but its still not working.... maybe I am using the wrong commands?

[03:32] <Olav> I know!

[03:32] <zetheroo> keito: yes.... thats what I do.... nothing
[03:32] <Olav> thanks
[03:33] <zetheroo> keito: do I have to restart or something?
[03:33] <jpastore> rexy_, yes I'm crazy or yes thunderbird will allow you to permanently deny return receipts...if the latter can y ou point me in the right direction?
[03:33] <Leon_home> how i run bash file in the terminal ?
[03:33] <keito> zetheroo: no shouldn't what are the "number of desktops" it should be 1

[03:34] <ubotu> darkchr0n0s: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)

[03:36] <Flagellum> Hello. Problem: I have a clean ubuntu 7.04 i386 install. I am trying to to "sudo apt-get update". I see it Ign/Hit/Get a bunch of the repository lists. However when it gets the universe and multiverse repositories, I get an error: Sub-process gizp returned error code (1). If I go to the URLs that fail, they come back in Firefox. Because of this I do not have the latest packages for the universe and multivers repos. Any ideas?

[03:38] <deathmas> x error session
[03:38] <keito> zetheroo: that should work permanently now but remember that fusion is "bleeding edge" and so its not perfect so get friendly with the peeps over in #compiz-fusion as you'll find yourself in there sooner or later ;0)
[03:38] <carlosV2> somebody knows how to confgure the IRDA port?
[03:38] <Radamanthys> sorry
[03:38] <keito> zetheroo: pile?

[03:38] <zetheroo> keito: well.... sorta like scale.....
[03:38] <keito> zetheroo: do you mean spread them out on the desktop so you can click the window you want?
[03:38] <magnetron> darkchr0n0s: it's very easy to install packages over the extra packages over the net, once ubuntu is installed
[03:39] <deathmas> thats where I am using 7GB of space
[03:39] <zetheroo> keito: yeah.... but stacked from one corner to another
[03:39] <magnetron> darkchr0n0s: with the apt-get system you just tick a few check boxes
[03:39] <darkchr0n0s> magnetron, here you are assuming that i have a fast internet.. which i don't
[03:39] <etale> I just downloaded a DVD in a bunch of .rar files... is there a gnome-based program for ubuntu that will put them to make DVD or avi
[03:39] <darkchr0n0s> magnetron, so it will take days to finsh the downloads
[03:39] <rexy_> unrar

[03:41] <tatters> anyone help me edit grub ?
[03:41] <rexy_> the ubuntu archive program understands the rar extensions, and knows what to do with them, however it needs the unrar program to actually unpack them
[03:41] <deathmas> I need help with the file .xsession-errors does it get cleaned up ever its like 7Gb
[03:41] <zetheroo> keito: have you ever tried the Shift Switcher?..... its awsome

[03:55] <jatt> ?

[03:56] <alok> Hi guys,anyone can tell me how to use webcam and voice with yahoo messenger/gaim
[03:56] <jaggz1> has anyone done this themselves (not just in theory or having seen it existing on other systems)
[03:57] <alok> Or has anyone been able to use gtalk on ubuntu so far....
[03:57] <alok> no one!
[03:57] <reverie> its easy
[03:58] <alucard> is it available on Ubuntu?
[03:58] <reverie> not the official Google Talk softwar
[03:58] <reverie> ebut you can use Gaim/Pidgin/Kopete
[03:58] <reverie> http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=24073
[03:58] <un_dave> how do i find out the version of the driver i'm using for my network card?
[03:58] <jaggz1> does pidgin handle video and audio now?
[03:58] <reverie> tada!
[03:58] <alok> reverie:thanx,lemme try it out
[03:59] <reverie> jaggz1, dunno
[03:59] <alok> i dont think gaim/pidgin has support for either voice or cam
[03:59] <alucard> Is there a similar guide for gaim?
[04:00] <erUSUL> un_dave: it is not easy if the driver itself does not print versioning info in tha logs

[04:00] <alok> I cant find the protocol XMPP,in gaim....
[04:00] <un_dave> erUSUL: hey, thanks for the help before. I think i got my driver installed, but i dont know how to check
[04:00] <rsk> alok: try pidgin
[04:01] <un_dave> erUSUL: it should have overwritten the ubuntu default one i guess
[04:01] <alok> rsk:arent they the same projects,sorry not much idea though
[04:01] <erUSUL> un_dave: no problem, glad i've been of help :)
[04:02] <erUSUL> un_dave: yes, check the creation time of the <driver>.ko under /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/ ...
[04:04] <parag00n> jimcooncat, that worked fantastically, thank you
[04:05] <Eicca> Could someone tell what would be a easy photo managing software that would have the simple tools such as cropping, managing the image size and brightness correction. Thank you :) My sister will appreciate it.
[04:05] <jimcooncat> parag00n: np
[04:05] <DrAk0> Eicca, Gimp
[04:05] <xOjka> gimp
[04:05] <un_dave> erUSUL: i'm down as far as /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/net/ where would it be under there?
[04:05] <Eicca> some other maybe? my sister find it hard to use gimp
[04:05] <Eicca> do you know the office photo manager?
[04:06] <Eicca> some software like that
[04:06] <un_dave> erUSUL: oh, wait drivers
[04:06] <fivetwentysix> If I'm using a 8800gts, is it recommended to enable restricted drivers or install the drivers manually?
[04:06] <sylverfox> hi
[04:06] <sylverfox> all
[04:06] <Tomcat_> fivetwentysix: Enable restricted drivers.
[04:06] <mc44> fivetwentysix: the feisty drivers won't work with 8800 I believe
[04:06] <Eicca> DrAk0: do you know it?
[04:07] <sylverfox> I would like to know, what happens when I upgrade my system?
[04:07] <xOjka> yeah I had some issues with my 8800
[04:07] <fivetwentysix> I just formatted and switched from 64-bit to 32-bit
[04:07] <sylverfox> I reffer to the grub
[04:07] <rexy_> upgrade to what sylverfox?
[04:07] <erUSUL> Eicca: gthumb is nice and have all this tools afaics
[04:07] <fivetwentysix> And on the 64-bit version i got it working through manual install
[04:07] <Tomcat_> fivetwentysix: Manual install might give you more problems and won't get you any support or updates. ;)
[04:07] <sylverfox> rexy_: for example from Feisty to Gutsy
[04:08] <sylverfox> in my grub it is still there the previous kernel version
[04:08] <rexy_> sylverfox: well your feisty will be replaced by gutsy,
[04:08] <Tomcat_> Eicca: F-Spot is a good tool.
[04:08] <astro76> sylverfox, old kernel versions are never removed, you can remove them manually if you so desire
[04:08] <alok> Eicca:Use gnu paint,very basic,but easy to use
[04:08] <Tomcat_> Eicca: Or digikam, if you're on KDE.
[04:08] <sylverfox> astro76:  how?
[04:08] <astro76> sylverfox, by manually I mean apt-get or synaptic ;)
[04:08] <Eicca> okay i'll try it, what about, how can i make a shortcut to bit torrent?
[04:09] <sylverfox> astro76: could we go to private?
[04:09] <astro76> sylverfox, just search for "linux" in Synaptic and remove all packages with the old version numbers
[04:09] <un_dave> erUSUL: ok, i'm looking in /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ and i see lots of .ko files. one of which is r8168.ko, i think thats the one i installed. and has a change date to match.
[04:09] <ItchyHobo> are there any known issues in the 64bit version of the vlc media player or I am the only one who's vlc hangs?
[04:10] <un_dave> erUSUL: but there's lots of .ko files there. how do i know which one is in use by the system?
[04:10] <fivetwentysix> Tomcat_ but the restricted drivers manager installs nvidia-glx drivers I believe i need the nvidia-glx-new drivers...
[04:10] <Eicca> how can i even open bittorrent?
[04:10] <fivetwentysix> anyways
[04:10] <sylverfox> astro76: what are the kernel_header
[04:10] <fivetwentysix> im going to restart
[04:10] <sylverfox> and header_image?
[04:10] <alok> Eicca:I use utorrent under wine,it works perfect
[04:10] <erUSUL> un_dave: you are only interested in the one you instaled (to see loaded modules use lsmod)
[04:10] <magnetron> Eicca: ubuntu has built-in support for bittorrent
[04:11] <alok> That inbuilt bittorent sucks
[04:11] <RAdams> Anyone here running on a Dell Inspiron 1720?

[04:12] <Eicca> argh, i'll dowload the deluge
[04:12] <RAdams> rexy_: thanks. and thanks, robot :|
[04:13] <Leon_home> can i make bash file to run sudo commands ?
[04:13] <magnetron> Eicca: you need to get the .torrent file . then double click it
[04:13] <un_dave> erUSUL: ok, i see r8168 in lsmod, but it says used by 0 ?

[04:14] <Braxt> I can't play quicktime mov's what do I need to get to fix it?
[04:15] <ItchyHobo> Braxt: tried VLC?
[04:15] <genii> !loop | ts__
[04:15] <un_dave> erUSUL:  oh. so it still means it's loaded? not that it's loaded, but not being used or something?
[04:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about loop - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:15] <genii> bah
[04:15] <Braxt> it's in a firefox window for school
[04:15] <rexy_> you need to enable restricted formats for totem to play that stuff
[04:15] <rexy_> if you open it in totem it should make a suggestion about what you need to do
[04:15] <rexy_> totem=movie player
[04:16] <genii> ts__: Same as how you mount iso files, but with whichever fs the image has instead of iso9660
[04:16] <RAdams> rexy_: I didn't see the Inspiron 1720 mentioned there. I saw the link you provided, but the xps m1710 is significantly different, mainly because of things like it's built-in camera and draft N wifi. Have any other sources? Or, is anyone here using a 1720?
[04:16] <ts__> genii:  ok
[04:16] <RAdams> Is anyone using a draft N wifi card in their laptop?
[04:16] <natbet> aside from scp, is there a way to copy a file and show the progress of that copy?
[04:16] <erUSUL> un_dave: yes it's loaded and the 0 means that other modules do not use it but the module itself is working...

[04:19] <RedGhost> Hey, I just installed XUbuntu 7.04 on my second hard drive, and for some reason it didn't install GRUB to the MBR of the first HDD (it said it did), so I've manually installed GRUB for DOS, would someone using it as their second operating system be kind enogh to give me their GRUB menu.lst boot entry for it?
[04:20] <magnetron> RedGhost: you need a menu.lst tailored for your setup
[04:20] <magnetron> !grub | RedGhost
[04:20] <ubotu> RedGhost: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[04:21] <fivetwentysix> So i enabled restricted drivers
[04:21] <RedGhost> magnetron I just need the path / kernel info
[04:21] <fivetwentysix> and Well, all it did was make X not run
[04:21] <RedGhost> I will substitute the drive #,#
[04:21] <rexy_> RaAdams ah i just looked at the number
[04:21] <fivetwentysix> So I'm uninstalling them through synaptic and installing the nvidia-glx-new drivers
[04:21] <rexy_> RAdams: did you try googling for your laptop + ubuntu, odds are someone already tried it
[04:23] <fivetwentysix> Is there any tools to create a new xorg.config file?
[04:23] <fivetwentysix> I deleted mine because X would not run.
[04:23] <erUSUL> fivetwentysix: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[04:23] <RedGhost> Anyone with Ubuntu 7.04 as their second/third/fourth please paste me your GRUB menu entry
[04:24] <RAdams> rexy_: found a few spotty reports, but nothing that indicated whether the wireless-N card (it's an option, not standard) and the webcam work
[04:24] <magnetron> RedGhost: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows has som tips
[04:25] <RedGhost> magnetron, a live CD is not an option I have no CD drive
[04:25] <RedGhost> I just need the menu entry and I'll fix it
[04:25] <RAdams> !update-grub > RedGhost
[04:25] <RAdams> :|
[04:25] <magnetron> kudos to you for fixing it from DOS, RedGhost
[04:27] <RAdams> Is anyone here using a wireless-N wifi card in their laptop? And are you using it with a wireless-G router?
[04:27] <rexy_> RAdams, it's based on the santa rosa platform iirc it has some problems still with getting wireless/sound to work
[04:27] <AeroStick> hey ladies.
[04:27] <rexy_> RAdams: i'm cramming a draft n wireless card in my laptop next week
[04:27] <rexy_> though i still have to wire a third antenna for it
[04:28] <RAdams> rexy_: scared it might not be compatible? D:
[04:28] <RAdams> I am
[04:28] <RAdams> :(
[04:28] <reverie> ladies? Where?
[04:28] <rexy_> we'll see
[04:28] <rexy_> it's an intel and i have a syslink router, i suspect their standardss will be ok
[04:28] <rexy_> as far as the draft N standard, noone uses that anyway, so who cares if it's gonna work or not,
[04:29] <rexy_> not yet anyway :D
[04:29] <AeroStick> i have a question like: are there any archiveves of xorg.conf files for different configurations for help people like; a xorg.conf file for, nvidia 6600gt gpu and samsung syncmaster 226bw monitor... etc..?
[04:29] <Ramunas> hello, I have a problem, fsck moved my home dir to lost+found in pieces, I can still access the files, so is there any hope to get the dir structure back?
[04:29] <AeroStick> if there are, may i take a look at 'em?
[04:30] <kanzie> I just installed Apache2 but noone can access the machine from outside my lan, where can I make it public?
[04:30] <AeroStick> reverie: lol..:)
 if there are, may i take a look at 'em?
[04:30] <reverie> at confs or ladies?
[04:30] <reverie> ;)
[04:30] <AeroStick> :D
[04:30] <Ramunas> kanzie: you need to do that in your router/firewall
[04:30] <reverie> I'm not aware of any archives of config files
[04:31] <AeroStick> reverie: confs.. (i'm married unfortunately..:D)
[04:31] <rexy_> RAdams: in your case i would just google for the particular router type+ card and see if there are any incompatibilities
[04:31] <rexy_> reverie: gedit by default safes a ~copy
[04:31] <lym> http://freenode.net/irc_servers.shtml/
[04:31] <reverie> really?
[04:31] <reverie> gedit /dev/wife
[04:31] <AeroStick> hey hey, tell me if there are..
[04:32] <reverie> cp ~wife.copy wife2
[04:32] <genii> kanzie: You need to forward port 80 at least to the internal machines IP. If you do not have static IP from your internet provider you ned to give each time the IP of your router to whoever you want to allow to the webserver. For this there is a workaround with some service like EasyDNS or DynDNS and the linux client ez-ipupdate
[04:32] <AeroStick> ok, i need to ask it again...:\
[04:32] <reverie> AeroStick, your best bet is to google for specific cards and xorg conf files
[04:32] <AeroStick> i have a question like: are there any archiveves of xorg.conf files for different configurations for help people like; a xorg.conf file for, nvidia 6600gt gpu and samsung syncmaster 226bw monitor... etc..?
[04:32] <ccooke> reverie: do you have /dev/bigamy installed? I thought there were very restricted licensing on that...
[04:32] <AeroStick> i tried, no spesific results reverie...
[04:33] <reverie> AeroStick, why would you want that tho?
[04:33] <rexy_> AeroStick: what kind of config? i have a 6600gt wired to a samsung something lcd
[04:33] <reverie> ccooke, lol
[04:33] <rexy_> without any special config things
[04:33] <ccooke> AeroStick: there's a fair few step-by-step guides, but no official archives of working configs
[04:33] <AeroStick> because i'm unsure of things i've done before
[04:33] <reverie> Cc2iscooL, she allows me to look, grep, but I'm not allowed to 'touch' or 'fsck' or even mount
[04:34] <AeroStick> this is a gutsy upgraded inside from feisty
[04:34] <genii> kanzie_: Did you get my last message?
[04:34] <AeroStick> there were a envy thing before
[04:34] <AeroStick> now i purged it
[04:34] <reverie> AeroStick, your best bet is to reconfigure your xorg with dpkg and then look at the difference and learn that way
[04:34] <ccooke> AeroStick: if you're using gutsy, you should be asking in #ubuntu+1
[04:34] <AeroStick> i also uninstalled the nvidia drivers it installed
[04:34] <reverie> AeroStick, or just ask ppl here to show you their xorg.conf files
[04:34] <coreyo> I have an oki 3200cn color laser printer.  Unfortunately it is really just an empty, soulless shell of a printer using binary GDI drivers.  I have a linux machine in one room and a mac in another.  The laser printer needs to be in the room with the linux machine, unfortunately, there only exists drivers for the mac.  Is there any way that I can somehow share the oki printer from the linux machine completely raw device (either through
[04:34] <coreyo>  IPP or unix print spool), and connect to it from the mac, using the native mac drivers, then re-share it from the mac, so that I can use it in linux?
[04:34] <rexy_> AeroStick: i installed the nvidia drivers, and configured the resolution, that's pretty much it
[04:34] <AeroStick> but i can not use the desktop effects
[04:34] <RedGhost> If anyone using Ubuntu 7.04 on a partition other than hd0,0 would be kind enough to private message me their GRUB entry for Ubuntu I'd appreciate it, thank you
[04:35] <TheEdge> Hullo there
[04:35] <rexy_> AeroStick: you need the nvidia drivers to have gl acceleration for the desktop effects, not sure about the default nv driver, but i'm guessing no desktop effects with those
[04:35] <coreyo> luckily, linux cups and mac cups share nicely right now
[04:35] <RAdams> rexy_: the inspiron Dell offers ubuntu pre-loaded on offers a santa rosa processor. Should I take that as a good sign?
[04:35] <TheEdge> How is everyone doing today?
[04:35] <AeroStick> ok peoplle, and ccooke: does anybody have an samsung syncmaster 226bw and a nvidia 6600gt and a gutsy gibbon installed, i need a copy of his/her xorg.conf file
[04:36] <rexy_> RAdams: one would expect that everything works then, but how well it works is another matter, i honestly dont know
[04:36] <AeroStick> rexy: the desktop effects look like begin to work, but without the borders of the windows etc...
[04:36] <TheEdge> I need a little bit of help guys
[04:37] <rexy_> AeroStick: try the nvidia and xorg guide on the wiki, and if you are on gutsy you should probably ask your questions in the gutsy channel which is ubuntu+1
[04:37] <void^> AeroStick: doy you have AddARGBGLXVisuals set in your xorg.conf?
[04:37] <RAdams> rexy_: I feel  adventurous! (YOU ARE ABOUT TO ORDER A LAPTOP NOT TESTED FOR UBUNTU. CANCEL OR ALLOW?)
[04:37] <reverie> AeroStick: sounds a compiz/beryl problem
[04:37] <rexy_> RAdams: that's never a good sign :D
[04:37] <AeroStick> i think not void
[04:37] <void^> AeroStick: pretty much any compiz/beryl will tell you to add that option for nvidia..
[04:37] <void^> *any compiz/beryl guide/howto
[04:38] <AeroStick> yes like that, but in fact there's something more, i said it all became a mess, need to clean it up
[04:38] <RAdams> rexy_: the hosts file in this windows machine directs dell.com/ubuntu to getthefacts.com. :\
[04:38] <AeroStick> void, how?
[04:38] <TheEdge> *sigh* Anybody listening? or am I invisible in here.
[04:38] <PriceChild> TheEdge, asked a question?
[04:38] <AeroStick> no, you're not, i'm stealing the scene TheEdge..:)
[04:38] <RAdams> TheEdge: don't ask to ask a question, just ask the question
[04:38] <GNUdog> TheEdge, :D
[04:38] <void^> AeroStick: *sigh* Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
[04:38] <rexy_> RAdams: lol, what machine are you on, heh
[04:39] <TheEdge> Whew, thought there was something up, anyways.
[04:39] <AeroStick> void: checkin'
[04:39] <RAdams> rexy_, I was only joking... except the windows part... I really am on windows at work :|
[04:39] <TheEdge> I have a pretty pressing issue. So I'm a brand new convert from Windows to Linux
[04:39] <PriceChild> TheEdge, so ask the question.....
[04:39] <TheEdge> I'm installing Ubuntu on my laptop
[04:39] <TheEdge> It's stuck at 15%
[04:39] <murkyMurk> ask us ask us ask us a riddle
[04:40] <AeroStick> void: there they are in the device section
[04:40] <TheEdge> Been that way for about 17 hours now.
[04:40] <RAdams> TheEdge: What's the laptop make/model?
[04:40] <nkbreau> I'm trying to install nvidia driver for ubuntu 7.04 but I need libc ... i think i need some kind of developers tools  package... can someone tell me what it is i need exactly so i can get it with apt-get ?
[04:40] <TheEdge> Dell Inspiron 8600
[04:40] <rexy_> !nvidia | nkbreau
[04:40] <ubotu> nkbreau: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:41] <rexy_> it explains the ubuntu and manual way there
[04:41] <murkyMurk> nkbreau: you need build-essential for the nvidia prop driver
[04:41] <IrishDave> hey, is there anyone here knows anything about syncing a windows mobile PDA with linux?
[04:41] <AeroStick> void^: they are there
[04:42] <TheEdge> Nvidia Video Card, 256 mg of RAM, 1800 speed processor
[04:42] <vmlinuz1> how can i set a password if during install i havent set any?
[04:42] <nkbreau> build-essentials.. i think thats it, thanks
[04:43] <IrishDave> vmlinuz1: System > Administration > users and groups
[04:43] <amadeux> What is a good bittorrent client on feisty?
[04:43] <vmlinuz1> IrishDave: ask me the password that i havent set
[04:43] <rsk> amadeux: azureus/rtorrent
[04:43] <nkbreau> hmm apt-get is trying to go to my cd-rom for build-essentials ... what file do i change to tell it not to look to the cdrom for packages ?
[04:43] <IrishDave> vmlinuz1: hmmmm
[04:43] <vmlinuz1> IrishDave: my user is without password
[04:43] <RAdams> TheEdge: according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/DellInspiron8600, your laptop is mostly compatible. What version are you installing?
[04:44] <amadeux> azureus is kinda slow, java right?
[04:44] <IrishDave> vmlinuz1: can u do in a terminal sudo su
[04:44] <zeroasterisk> amadeux: there arent any faster ones
[04:44] <RAdams> amadeux: yes. Try Deluge.
[04:44] <skarface> amadeux: ktorrent, especially if you use kde
[04:44] <winkey> vmlinuz1 enter
[04:44] <z0rz> How can I make grep's output not be displayed but just piped to the next command
[04:44] <amadeux> isn't there something like utorrent? ktorrent seemed cool, but isnt there something similar for gnome?
[04:44] <zeroasterisk> ... with full feature sets and a queue
[04:44] <IrishDave> vmlinuz1: leave password blank and see if it lets you get to a root prompt
[04:44] <rexy_> z0rz use a pipe | or  > ?
[04:44] <RAdams> amadeux: deluge
[04:44] <amadeux> ok
[04:45] <monkeyBox> Does anyone know if ubuntu's dhcp client respects /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf?
[04:45] <secher> anyone have the ftp link for the newest ALSA driver snapshots?
[04:45] <speps> hey guys...i can't understand why...i have 2 yahoo accounts ... one works with evolution and the other one ... nope...WHY??????????????
[04:45] <RAdams> monkeybox: yes
[04:45] <monkeyBox> I've changed settings in my dhclient.conf to use opendns servers, but when I re-up my interface, it still uses my ISP's dns.
[04:45] <z0rz> rexy_: Yeah but it's still echoing the contents of grep (or maybe it's awk) to the standard output (the console)
[04:45] <nkbreau> can someone tell me what file i use to configure apt-get to tell it not to look in the cd-rom ?
[04:46] <RAdams> speps: check your Yahoo settings or contact yahoo support. Try it in another mail client as well
[04:46] <IrishDave> vmlinuz1: did you get that to work?
[04:46] <RAdams> nkbreau: uncheck the cd in the software sources control panel under System --> Administration
[04:46] <vmlinuz1> IrishDave: yes
[04:46] <rexy_> nkbreau: /etc/apt/sources.list, or under software sources in the menu
[04:46] <vmlinuz1> IrishDave: thanks :)
[04:47] <PriceChild> !pm | TheEdge
[04:47] <ubotu> TheEdge: 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.
[04:47] <TheEdge> Should I just go ask this question in Installation forum?
[04:47] <Usrl_> Someone help? My sound stopped working all of a sudden while I was listening to music. xmms spits back: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38456/
[04:47] <PriceChild> !patience | TheEdge
[04:47] <ubotu> TheEdge: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[04:47] <speps> RAdams: i don't know if u use yahoo and evolution...please tell me ... why one yahoo account works with evolution and the other yahoo one nope???
[04:47] <PriceChild> TheEdge, I'd suggest you try the install again.
[04:47] <murkyMurk> Usrl_: reboot and then use alsamixer in a terminal if you have to
[04:47] <nkbreau> thanks rexy_
[04:47] <PriceChild> TheEdge, if it happens again, then download, burn and try the alternate install cd
[04:48] <Usrl_> murkyMurk: I'd rather not reboot
[04:48] <z0rz> rexy_: Nevermind.. it's not.. I'm retarded
[04:48] <TheEdge> Alternate meaning an earlier version?
[04:48] <RAdams> speps: did you see my suggestions?
[04:48] <PriceChild> TheEdge, no, the alternate cd
[04:48] <rexy_> z0rz: ok :P
[04:48] <rexy_> !alternate
[04:48] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[04:48] <panosru> How to add something under Places menu?
[04:48] <speps> RAdams: maybe the accounts are different???They both ends with @yahoo.it...
[04:48] <PriceChild> TheEdge, each release has a desktop, and an alternate cd
[04:48] <speps> RAdams: ok thanks
[04:48] <z0rz> How about this one... I want wgrep to be "non-verbose" but with a progress bar
[04:49] <z0rz> like --simple would be the flag if I were to be the creator of wget
[04:49] <z0rz> or --simple-with-progress
[04:49] <TheEdge> *nods* One thing, the laptop crashed, so it has to be a boot-disk. Is the alternate cd such a disk?
[04:49] <rexy_> it's also a cdinstall, was the laptop on net power theedge?
[04:49] <TheEdge> Net Power?
[04:49] <Unknown> Help: I need help with gcc.
[04:49] <RedGhost> If anyone using Ubuntu 7.04 on a partition other than hd0,0 would be kind enough to private message me their GRUB entry for Ubuntu I'd appreciate it, thank you
[04:50] <rexy_> plugged in with the power adapter
[04:50] <TheEdge> Yes
[04:50] <rexy_> Unknown: just ask, but are you sure this is the right channel for gcc?
[04:50] <Unknown> rexy_: No, I'm not sure. Is there a better channel?
[04:50] <andra> hi
[04:50] <TheEdge> Hullo andra
[04:50] <jallen> I am using feisty and would like to upgrade mysql due to a documented bug in 5.0.38.  Is it possible to install the gutsy mysql 5.0.45 on feisty?
[04:50] <rexy_> Unknown: i dont know, i'm not pshychic, whats your question :D?
[04:51] <Unknown> rexy_: My question is a programming question. I need to know how to link to a static library without exporting its symbols.
[04:51] <rexy_> debuggin symbols?
[04:52] <assasukasse> hi everyone, i am using feisty, and i just incurred in a strange prob: my server was around 300h uptime when i noticed that by ssh i couldnt access anymore, so i turn on the monitor on the server and tried to look there, noticed that all the sudo commands were not working
[04:52] <assasukasse> plus i couldnt log in from cli
[04:52] <Usrl_> Someone help? My sound stopped working all of a sudden while I was listening to music. xmms spits back: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38456/ - I don't want to restart if I can avoid it
[04:52] <assasukasse> i had to do an hard reboot to fix it
[04:52] <assasukasse> where should i investigate to know what happened?
[04:52] <rexy_> syslog?
[04:52] <rexy_> see what errors ssh/mgetty generate
[04:52] <Unknown> rexy_: No. See, I'm creating a shared library (with gcc). Durring compilation I link to a static library I created. The problem is, the static lib's functions are being exported in the shared lib's symbols.
[04:53] <reverie> 40k/s
[04:53] <Unknown> rexy_: This problem is bad for descretion's sake, and for file size's sake.
[04:53] <winkey> Unknown it might be beter to ask in a channel tailored to that
[04:53] <atlfalcons866> will kde4 be in gusty gibbon
[04:53] <assasukasse> any idea about my prob?
[04:53] <Unknown> winkey: I don't know any programming channels. :(
[04:54] <rexy_> Unknown: not sure what you mean by symbols but probably better to ask in #c, #c++ or #linux
[04:54] <Pici> Unknown: ##programming too
[04:54] <winkey> Unknown well ##c is a good start
[04:54] <rexy_> or that one :D
[04:54] <winkey> sice it is c ;-)
[04:54] <Unknown> Do I have to update these channels?
[04:54] <atlfalcons866> #kubuntu
[04:54] <winkey> Unknown you /join them
[04:55] <Unknown> winkey: How so?
[04:55] <Pici> Unknown: eh? just /join #c++ or whatever.
[04:55] <Unknown> Pici: How do I connect to join in the first place?
[04:55] <winkey> omg
[04:55] <Unknown> Pici: I'm knew to this XChat. ;)
[04:55] <winkey> Unknown irc
[04:55] <rexy_> kde4 will not be in gutsy or in the follow up release, it will be availeable in the backports
[04:55] <Pici> Unknown: You're already on the freenode server, just type /join ##programming
[04:56] <rexy_> there is a page about it somewhere
[04:56] <Unknown> Pici: Wow, that was simple. Thank you, Sir? ;)
[04:56] <jallen> Anyone?? I am using feisty and would like to upgrade mysql due to a documented bug in 5.0.38.  Is it possible to install the gutsy mysql 5.0.45 on feisty?
[04:56] <naya_cute> haiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[04:57] <rexy_> jallen unless it's in the repo you have to see if they have prepackaged binaries for feisty, or you have to build it manually
[04:57] <andra> hiiiiiiii
[04:57] <Usrl_> Someone help? My sound stopped working all of a sudden while I was listening to music. xmms spits back: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38456/ - I don't want to restart if I can avoid it
[04:57] <mooper> hi, how do I set up ipp in ubuntu?
[04:58] <rexy_> Usrl_: something else is using your sound device, probably the sound deamon
[04:58] <jimcooncat> I have an entry in my fiesty's fstab for smbfs. Doesn't mount on boot, but will after with "sudo mount -a". How can I have this done automatically?
[04:58] <rexy_> open up a console and do lsof /dev/snd/* and see what programs are using your soundcard
[04:58] <Usrl_> rexy_: and what should I do?
[04:58] <Usrl_> ok, one sec
[04:58] <rexy_> and put it on pastebin
[04:58] <jallen> rexy thanks  are you referring to packages prepared by mysql? or any debian package?
[04:58] <Usrl_> rexy_: I figured it out
[04:59] <rexy_> jallen, i'd guess a debian package would work, but remember you might need a slew of dependencies too
[04:59] <Usrl_> rexy_: was kinda odd though, the program using it was evince... why the hell would a pdf reader need sound?
[04:59] <Usrl_> rexy_: Anyway, thanks
[04:59] <jallen> rexy thanks  I'll look around...
[04:59] <andra> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[05:00] <PriceChild> andra, hi
[05:00] <rexy_> jallen, but i'd start by peeking in the backports repo to see if it wasnt added there
[05:00] <ArmedKing> Anyone know any other bluetooth documentation out there (not the one from ubuntu) cause that doesnt work for me.
[05:00] <RAdams> rexy_: FYI: I found someone who got the Dell Wireless-N 1505 Chipset to work
[05:01] <RAdams> rexy_: ndiswrapper
[05:01] <atlfalcons866> will gusty gibbon be lts
[05:01] <PriceChild> atlfalcons866, no, but hardy will
[05:01] <rexy_> RAdams yeah, but ndiswrapper is poop
[05:01] <erUSUL> !hi | andra
[05:01] <RAdams> rexy_: why?
[05:01] <ubotu> andra: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:01] <atlfalcons866> is hardy +2
[05:02] <PriceChild> atlfalcons866, yes
[05:02] <rexy_> i'm using it atm for my acx111 card, but it is a wrapper around windows drivers, so you can get very odd bugs. i'm replacing my wireless with one that is natively supported
[05:02] <RAdams> rexy_: I have the option of the intel 1394, which is the same as on the ubuntu laptops... go for it instead?
[05:03] <RAdams> in your opinion
[05:03] <erUSUL> rexy_: acx111 cards do have native drivers iirc
[05:03] <rexy_> erUSUL: only wep yeah, bit pointless
[05:03] <lluc84> Can I install ubuntu-minimal in a partition directly like we did in debian ?
[05:03] <rexy_> erUSUL: they are working on porting it to the new mac stac though
[05:04] <lym> list
[05:04] <rexy_> but it's still very alpha appearantly
[05:04] <RAdams> rexy_: Intel 3945, not 1394
[05:04] <atlfalcons866> what day is gusty released next month?
[05:04] <RAdams> atlfalcons866: 10/18
[05:05] <fivetwentysix> Sigh I give up
[05:05] <rexy_> RAdams: it has a native driver for linux, so that is preferable over ndiswrapper
[05:05] <fivetwentysix> I have no idea how to install nvidia drivers and get them working for a 8800gts.
[05:05] <fivetwentysix> Seems like everything I do, will make X not start.
[05:05] <rexy_> how well it works i dont know though, i'm sure google can tell you more
[05:06] <rexy_> but from what i've read so far it seems that the intel cards work fine
[05:06] <fivetwentysix> And this is strange, because I got it working on 64bit ubuntu, but can't seem to get it working on 32-bit.
[05:07] <RAdams> fivetwentysix: Have you tried using Envy?
[05:07] <Pici> !envy | RAdams fivetwentysix
[05:07] <ubotu> RAdams fivetwentysix: 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!
[05:07] <fivetwentysix> No.
[05:07] <RAdams> Oh
[05:07] <RAdams> lol
[05:07] <RAdams> better not then
[05:07] <fivetwentysix> That makes me not want to use it.
[05:07] <fivetwentysix> Lol
[05:07] <RAdams> I'd never had to use it
[05:07] <RAdams> haah
[05:08] <RAdams> restricted drivers manager has always worked for me
[05:08] <fivetwentysix> Doesn't for me
[05:08] <RAdams> try posting in this thread, fivetwentysix: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3413910
[05:08] <fivetwentysix> It just gives me a X error
[05:08] <RAdams> there are 3-4 people there who said they got it working
[05:08] <RAdams> one of them will probably write back
[05:08] <RAdams> it's live as of a day ago
[05:09] <koer> hello i would like to know how i can install unreal tournament 2004 (collectors edition) in linux , it says it is compatible
[05:10] <Karotte> how can I tell firefox to display acroread as the preferred application for opening PDFs when I try to save an pdf ("Opening" dialog)
[05:10] <rsk> koer: get the linux installer and install it
[05:10] <koer> ...how
[05:11] <fivetwentysix> Does the PS3 use linux?
[05:11] <rexy_> RAdams: it seems that card still needs some auxilary junk to get it work properly, dont know if that's included by default in linux, is it listed on the ubuntu hardware list?
[05:11] <rsk> koer: i dont understand
[05:11] <koer> i put the disk ,a and there is no linux installer
[05:11] <dWho> hi
[05:11] <luite_> fivetwentysix: it can dualboot to linux, but it won't give you access to all hardware because it runs in a virtual machine
[05:11] <macd> koer, there is no install-linux.sh file on the disc?
[05:11] <rexy_> RAdams: http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/
[05:12] <dWho> does anyone knows how to create a new session in feisty ?
[05:12] <RAdams> rexy_: this one is just the a/g, and it's the same model used in the ubuntu dells
[05:12] <fivetwentysix> luite what kernal does the ps3 use then?
[05:12] <phuzion> Why can't I listen to .pls streams from shoutcast through Amarok, anyone know?
[05:12] <koer> let me tell you what it has
[05:12] <macd> dWho, at the login screen, click options, and select a new session.
[05:12] <koer> nope
[05:12] <koer> not on disk 1
[05:13] <Presto> phuzion: i dont know but im pretty sure they work in VLC
[05:13] <devilsreject> hey all how goes it
[05:13] <luite_> fivetwentysix: powerpc kernel (2.6) that runs on the ppe core. the other (spe) cores can be accessed (but one is reserved, so you can access 6 of the spe's)
[05:13] <RAdams> rexy_: "Automatically detected and correct drivers loaded on Edgy."
[05:13] <dWho> macd : so from there I can do things like configure compiz and then if something's gone wrong I can always return to my other session?
[05:13] <macd> dWho, you got it
[05:14] <dWho> macd : thanks...
[05:14] <devilsreject> when i log into ubuntu normally the screens all crazy cuz the right monitor and vid card settings arn't sintalled ive been running in gnome safemode im runnin 7.04 whats the name of tat server ap i need to run to reconf9igure????
[05:14] <macd> koer, according to the unreal support website, that file is present on both the cd and dvd versions of the game, do you own a legit copy, or is it pirated?
[05:14] <koer> its legit
[05:14] <dWho> devilsreject : Xorg?
[05:14] <macd> devilsreject, 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[05:14] <koer> let me shuffle through the 7 disks
[05:14] <devilsreject> dwho and macd --- right on thank you verrr much
[05:15] <rexy_> RAdams: i'd say that wireless card is a safe bet then
[05:15] <lazly> hi
[05:15] <koer> hmm lemme see
[05:15] <devilsreject> could that be the reason its taking soo long to convert video files in failsafe mode????
[05:15] <rexy_> i bought an intel 4965 because it's the only mini pci card i could find heh
[05:15] <phuzion> Amarok tells me I have no suitable demux plugin for listening to .pls streams, anyone know whats up with this?
[05:15] <macd> koer, well you can grab the installer script from here then http://lackteam.free.fr/download/linux-installer.sh
[05:15] <macd> devilsreject, most likely not.
[05:15] <koer> found it !
[05:16] <koer> yay!!!
[05:16] <koer> haha it was in another disk
[05:16] <macd> koer, was it just on another disc?
[05:16] <macd> ahh, hehe
[05:16] <koer> okay thx by the way :D
[05:16] <devilsreject> macd --- its takin 5 hours to change an avi to an iso with DeVeDe
[05:16] <koer> hehe yeah im souch a nooob
[05:16] <macd> devilsreject, that sounds about right.
[05:16] <devilsreject> ??????? any ideas what could be causing this i know it takes a while but thats ridiculous
[05:16] <main2> how do i make my feisty system start in runlevel 2 instead of 5?
[05:17] <macd> devilsreject, it takes me about 3 or 4 on a dual core xeon 5355
[05:17] <dWho> devilsreject : avi needs to be converted to a dvd / vcd compliant like mpg1 or mpg2
[05:17] <Dr_willis> main2,  i thought 2 was the default.
[05:17] <macd> main2, 2 is default for all debian systems
[05:17] <Dr_willis> not that i am aware of any differaances in feistys runlevels.
[05:17] <macd> dWho, devede does all of that.
[05:17] <main2> macd: :o.. i tought that it was 5 (with gui..)
[05:17] <dWho> devilsreject : so basically it is converting your files twice or 3 times
[05:17] <main2> how do i stop X from being loaded then? :)
[05:17] <main2> its a 'server'
[05:17] <Dr_willis> main2,  NOW you ask the 'real question'
[05:18] <dWho> macd : that's why it takes a lot of time i guess.. in my opinion
[05:18] <Dr_willis> main2,  disable the gdm service or kdm service.
[05:18] <devilsreject> dho --- when i had the optoins i just chose "DVD that can be played in standard dvd player" when i chose that option in DeVeDe it switches it to an iso... ohhhhhh soo what should i convert it to instead of iso??
[05:18] <main2> Dr_willis: in the /etc/even.d scripts?
[05:18] <macd> main2, take its symbolic link from rc5.d and take gdms from rc2.d
[05:18] <Dr_willis> main2,  in the rc.# whatever dir -  time to read up on sysv init system. :)
[05:18] <morpheus> I've installed the latest version of wine on my ubuntu box, downloaded the latest winetools yet when I run winetools it says my version is out of date??? any ideas?
[05:18] <macd> main2, of uninstall xserver-xorg and gdm.
[05:18] <devilsreject> dwho --- i konw u said mpeg but its sayin theres all diff kinds of mp3g
[05:19] <Pici> macd: `sudo update-rc.d gdm remove`   (or kdm, etc)
[05:19] <dWho> devilsreject : yes but your source file is "avi" devedee needs to convert it to mpg compliant before it packs in to an iso compliant
[05:19] <macd> Pici, ahh thanks, I forget there is a nice automated way todo it
[05:19] <sco50000> holy
[05:19] <sco50000> 1162 ppl
[05:19] <devilsreject> i dont have to convert to an iso for my non modded 360 to read it right?
[05:19] <Pici> main2: `sudo update-rc.d gdm remove`   (or kdm, etc)
[05:19] <macd> devilsreject, yeah, you need to convert to iso, then burn
[05:19] <main2> Dr_willis: well i know sysv-init
[05:19] <main2> and /etc/event.d is not sysv-init
[05:19] <sco50000> is Ubuntu the best choice for a tv box?
[05:20] <devilsreject> soo no matter what i gotta go to iso
[05:20] <sco50000> i will have a box set up to record tv
[05:20] <macd> !whatsbest | sco50000
[05:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about whatsbest - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:20] <macd> bleh
[05:20] <sco50000> k
[05:20] <Pici> !best | sco50000
[05:20] <sco50000> !whatsbest
[05:20] <Dr_willis> main2,  of course i just manually delete the links. :)
[05:20] <ubotu> sco50000: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:20] <main2> Dr_willis.. yeah yeah.. right...
[05:20] <macd> sco50000, but of course we would like to see you use ubuntu.
[05:20] <dWho> devilsreject : if you intend to play your "avi" to a movie player like a real dvd hardware movie player yes you need to convert it to mpeg compliant file
[05:20] <Dr_willis> i never can rember the update-rc.d command.. talk about a 'odd' command name.
[05:21] <Pici> Dr_willis: I remember it because I use `invoke-rc.d ` to stop and start services
[05:21] <devilsreject> dwho -- k soo id still need to turn that mpeg into an iso b4 i burn it right??
[05:21] <macd> devilsreject, just let devede do its job.
[05:21] <Dr_willis> Pici,  heh no 'service' command :)
[05:22] <darkchr0n0s> hi, anyone knows how to reduce LCD brightness for laptops.. i am using ubuntu fiesty and ATi x2300 mobility
[05:22] <devilsreject> macd -- ur right it worked for superbad... it just takes forever
[05:22] <dWho> devilsreject : devedee will do that for you you only need to let him finished it and it will take a lot of time
[05:22] <devilsreject> k i was just making sure i wasn't retarded and doing something wrong lol
[05:22] <darkchr0n0s> no ideas?
[05:22] <devilsreject> it werked just took forever
[05:22] <Dr_willis> darkchr0n0s,  on my laptop the 'special fn-whatever' keys work - it may be due to the brand of laptop more then anythign else.
[05:22] <dWho> devilsreject : lol... no you're not...
[05:22] <sco50000> so Ubuntu is completely free?
[05:22] <Dr_willis> sco50000,  yes.
[05:22] <macd> one of the main problems with devede is that it uses a single threaded instance of ffmpeg, imho this should be fixed
[05:22] <sco50000> cool
[05:23] <devilsreject> one of these days im gonna have to get help actually getting my vid card drivers installed lol
[05:23] <sine> Dr_willis what laptop you got i just got a sony VAIO VGN-N38E/W
[05:23] <sco50000> cuz i hate microsfot
[05:23] <devilsreject> lol
[05:23] <sco50000> and i hate apple even more
[05:23] <Dr_willis> sine,  and old compaq with a Ati X200M
[05:23] <darkchr0n0s> Dr_willis, my Fn keys don't work.. isn't there a way to do if from ubuntu ?
[05:23] <dWho> sco50000 : I love apple
[05:23] <Dr_willis> sco50000,  life is too short to hate. :)
[05:23] <bjv> im having trouble installing libwxbase2.8-dev, update-alternatives: unable to open /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/wx-config.dpkg-new for write: No such file
[05:23] <darkchr0n0s> my latop is Sony Vaio VGN-CR14GN
[05:24] <Dr_willis> darkchr0n0s,  not noticed. on the 3 laptops ive had ubuntu on the fn-keys all sowkrd.
[05:24] <Dr_willis> worked
[05:24] <bjv> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[05:24] <sco50000> microsoft has too much of a monoply
[05:24] <bjv> there are 2 files/packages
[05:24] <sco50000> they don't do their best cuz they don't have to
[05:24] <sethk> Dr_willis, I prefer sowkrd.  I don't know what it might mean, but it's more interesting.  :)
[05:24] <bjv> unable to open /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/wx-config.dpkg-new & unable to open /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/wx.pth.dpkg-new
[05:24] <dWho> sco50000 : agree but's that's what business is all about... "money" and "greed"
[05:24] <bjv> from   libwxbase2.8-dev   &    python-wxgtk2.4  respectivly
[05:24] <Pici> !paste  | bjv
[05:24] <ubotu> bjv: 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)
[05:24] <Dr_willis> sethk,  gotta love moving from one machine to another with different sized keyboards.
[05:24] <sine> darkchr0n0s do your fn keys work
[05:25] <sethk> sco50000, believe it or not, that's really not true.  They manipuate their software to inhibit competition, but other than that they really do do their best
[05:25] <darkchr0n0s> sine, nope
[05:25] <bjv> python-wxgtk2.4 is a package that has been throwing errors for awhile, i would like to just remove it totally
[05:25] <sine> i have yet to meet another linux user with the same model laptop as me
[05:25] <dWho> sethk : right on... but no originality
[05:25] <bjv> dpkg --purge python-wxgtk2.4 was my best bet so far.
[05:25] <sine> anyway not my distro im out windows noobz!
[05:25] <sethk> Dr_willis, I actually carry a keyboard with me when I go to a client site.  I get a lot of sarcastic remarks about it ...
[05:25] <macd> bjv, can you just paste all that into pastebin please, rather than the channel, its hard to follow
[05:25] <bjv> ok
[05:25] <Dr_willis> But their 'best' is focused on  eye-candy-feature of the week stuff.. instead of the core of the OS. :)
[05:26] <sethk> Dr_willis, true, but the same can be said about the average user, which is why M$ does it that way.
[05:26] <macd> I think the Microsoft discussion is a bit offtopic ;)
[05:26] <Dr_willis> Of course we all know that Linux is Perfect! :)
[05:26] <sethk> macd, well, true ...   what's our ubuntu offtopic channel?
[05:26] <macd> !offtopic
[05:26] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:26] <Dr_willis> sice by its design - we have the power to make it so! :)
[05:27] <sethk> well, #ununtu-offtopic.  How can anyone expect me to remember that?  :)
[05:27] <macd> ;)
[05:27] <bjv> ok macd, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38457/
[05:27] <dWho> windows and dos : a turtle and its shell
[05:27] <sethk> Dr_willis, is there a channel where we can argue about the best name for the offtopic channel?   :)
[05:28] <dWho> lolz
[05:28] <macd> bjv, run 'sudo apt-get autoremove' then install your package.
[05:28] <JRsup1> Can anyone help me figure out why Nautalius keeps crashing my system / an ATI 7500 All-in-wonder?
[05:28] <simon_> anybody here?
[05:29] <sethk> simon_, no
[05:29] <dWho> please play simon_ says
[05:29] <sethk> JRsup1, only Naut. is crashing, not other things?
[05:29] <bjv> macd: that cleaned up some unrelated cruft, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38458/  but im still hitting that update-alternatives error
[05:29] <bjv> wrt that same package
[05:29] <dWho> clear
[05:30] <dWho> oops... wrong window
[05:30] <macd> bjv, yeah b/c you purged it first, umm, is there anything in /var/cache/apt/archive or /partial ?
[05:30] <bjv> oh my god, im a hacker.
[05:30] <bjv> mkdir /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives   fixed it :P
[05:30] <sanguisdex> why do in unbuntu my torrents stall out no matter what client I use
[05:30] <bjv> lol, thx macd
[05:30] <macd> bjv, nice ;)
[05:30] <bastid_raZor> sanguisdex: you have a shatty internet connection
[05:31] <sanguisdex> when they don't in windows
[05:31] <sanguisdex> I am a great connection
[05:31] <sanguisdex> have*
[05:31] <sanguisdex> hehe
[05:31] <bastid_raZor> sanguisdex: kTorrent runs fine and is torrenting like mad right now
[05:31] <macd> bjv, you just got bit by a odd set of cirumstances, typically you want to use autoremove first and not try to purge
[05:31] <simon_> I have a problem. Would someone tell me how to separate a big file to some small ones? I have a 2GB file to edit. That is 2 big
[05:31] <JRsup1> sethk. it runs fine off of 7.04 live CD until I open something like "home" or "computer" from the places menu.  Terminal, synaptic, and other programs run fine
[05:32] <dWho> sanguisdex : maybe bad tracker
[05:32] <sanguisdex> bastid_raZor: I have used it, it to stalls and I have to restart it
[05:32] <sanguisdex> dWho:
[05:32] <bastid_raZor> why does ubuntu get the blame for outside factors..
[05:32] <Dr_willis> sandriman,  try 'wine utorrent.exe' :)
[05:32] <bastid_raZor> sanguisdex: sucks to be you.. then
[05:32] <dWho> sanguisdex : mybe you have a bad tracker in your torrent try updating it...
[05:33] <Dr_willis> bastid_raZor,  becauise it works fine in 'windows!' ( sometimes!)
[05:33] <bjv> bastid_raZor: because a distro is by definition an attempt to unify 'outside' stuff
[05:33] <bjv> the objective is to package & present it
[05:33] <dWho> simon_ : what file?
[05:34] <sanguisdex> dWho: it has to be something to do w/ some part of my OS set up in vista (the other partition) I never have the problem w/ the same torrents
[05:34] <bastid_raZor> obviously if something isn't working.. ubuntu is to blame~!
[05:34] <dWho> bastid_raZor : wow...
[05:34] <sanguisdex> bastid_raZor: I am not blaming unbuntu I am blaming my config
[05:34] <simon_> dwho,  ASCii file
[05:35] <bastid_raZor> sanguisdex: the correct ports forwarded? UPnP?
[05:35] <bastid_raZor> dWho: sarcasm
[05:35] <dWho> simon_ : 2 gig for an ascii file... you're sniffing aren't you...?
[05:35] <sanguisdex> bastid_raZor: would that be in my router or my clent?
[05:35] <simon_> dwho, I strings from my HDD to find a lost file
[05:35] <jrib> !away > linuxawy-aWay (read the private message from ubotu)
[05:36] <genii> simon_: I suggest "man cut" for some information on that command
[05:36] <bastid_raZor> sanguisdex: forward them in your router then tell your client which ones to use
[05:36] <dWho> bastid_raZor : i know... it's also a sarcasm...
[05:36] <simon_> thx geii, I try
[05:36] <PriceChild> jrib, kick him with /msg ubotu away next time
[05:37] <bastid_raZor> sanguisdex: although the latest version of kTorrent has port forwarding ability.
[05:38] <bastid_raZor> sanguisdex: preferences > plugins > enable UPnP
[05:38] <bastid_raZor> sanguisdex: then simply click UPnP option and Forward Ports
[05:40] <franzz> Hi
[05:40] <e-Hernick> hey... apt-get update says "Failed to fetch http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty-updates/main/binary-amd64/Packages.bz2  MD5Sum mismatch"
[05:40] <e-Hernick> any idea what this means?
[05:40] <ccambra> good morning i need the comand line for edit sources list please naybody helpme
[05:40] <e-Hernick> ccambra: nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:40] <kalpik> e-Hernick, just do apt-get update again ;)
[05:40] <e-Hernick> or replace "nano" with your favourite editor, such as vim
[05:40] <e-Hernick> kalpik: no such luck
[05:41] <sanguisdex> bastid_raZor: I am working on opening my prots on my router for now. thank you for you help.  I hate to be that guy but I am avoiding k apps for now
[05:41] <kalpik> e-Hernick, it means that they are in the process of syncing the repository
[05:41] <e-Hernick> kalpik: ah, I see
[05:41] <zeus_> how do i blacklist a module?
[05:41] <ccambra> con nao how i can change the list
[05:42] <bjv> ok, i got my libwxgtk2.8-dev installed
[05:42] <sethk> ccambra, with an editor.  Use sudo, because you need root privileges to change that file.  BACK UP THE FILE FIRST.
[05:42] <dWho> there should be channel for gaming in ubuntu that would be cool
[05:43] <ccambra> i wanna i be edit by text editor
[05:43] <dWho> ccambra come again?
[05:43] <sethk> ccambra, indeed, that's what I suggested you do
[05:43] <kmaynard> vi
[05:43] <Hanno> Hi all.
[05:43] <zeus_> anyone know how to stop a module loading?
[05:43] <zeus_> hi Hanno
[05:44] <Factory> zeus_: blacklist it
[05:44] <kmaynard> or rather, vim
[05:44] <genii> !blacklist | zeus_
[05:44] <ubotu> zeus_: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[05:44] <sethk> zeus_, there's a file you can edit.  However, I use the foolproof method of moving the module file to a different directory
[05:44] <dWho> i suggest pico much easier
[05:44] <zeus_> cheers!
[05:44] <sethk> dWho, I think anyone who recommends pico is a sadist.  :)
[05:45] <alex78pa> !list
[05:45] <ubotu> 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
[05:45] <reep> I'd use nano over pico
[05:45] <dWho> sethK : lolz... what do you mean...?
[05:45] <Hanno> When I'm trying to start the nedit-Editor, I get the following error: X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
[05:45] <Hanno> Does anybody know how to fix this?
[05:45] <sethk> dWho, Just that I hate using pico; I find it seriouslyl annoying.  It's a perfectly good program for the situation where you suggested it.  To me it's ugly.
[05:46] <dWho> seth : but you won't react if I suggest gedit right?
[05:46] <dWho> sethk : but you won't react if I suggest gedit right?
[05:46] <sethk> Hanno, if you are running it from a shell, try starting a new shell.
[05:46] <sethk> dWho, you are correct.
[05:47] <zeus_> sethk: if i move it, where should i put it?
[05:47] <JRsup1> Anyone have an idea where I could check logs for a nautilus crash? Could this be a livecd problem?  If I put the card back in (after install) will it keep crashing?  I want to turn this into a mythTV or LinuxMCE box eventually...
[05:47] <Hanno> sethk: thanks - but it doesn't seem to help
[05:48] <stefg> JRsup1: Do you know mythbuntu?
[05:48] <fivetwentysix> how do i stop something from being mounted
[05:49] <fivetwentysix> forexample i mounted an iso to a folder
[05:49] <fivetwentysix> and i deleted the iso now how do i unmount the folder
[05:49] <reep> fivetwentysix: sudo umount /path/to/folder
[05:49] <dead_alive> anyone help me with Hard Drive Active Protection (HDAPS) ??
[05:49] <JRsup1> stefg, no

[05:52] <daws> guh-nome
[05:53] <Hanno> sethk: Okay - thank you for your help. I think I've fixed it. I needed to add *visualID: default to /etc/X11/app-defaults/NEdit

[05:56] <TheDiff> where can i find a list of Nvidia video cards currently supported by the restricted drivers
[05:56] <JRsup1> stefg, thanks, I'll take a look
[05:56] <bastid_raZor> sanguisdex: amarok and ktorrent are the only two kde apps i use.. ubuntu seems to be lacking in those two areas compared to kubuntu
[05:57] <nicholas> does ubuntu support PEAP? it's some obscure authentication for wifi.
[05:57] <Tanel> hello i have a question
[05:58] <TheDiff> ?
[05:58] <Tanel> can i play call of duty in linux
[05:58] <heguru> nicholas: Feisty supports PEAP out of the box (with wpa_supplicant)
[05:58] <erUSUL> !wine | Tanel
[05:58] <ubotu> Tanel: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.

[05:59] <riotkittie> :)
[06:01] <monkeyBox> Is anyone here familiar w/ firestarter (firewall app)?
[06:01] <riotkittie> anyone want to venture a guess as to why the alternate cd would totally ignore the partition that you specified and install elsewhere? i am not insane, it did, it did.
[06:01] <heguru> !anyone | monkeyBox
[06:01] <ubotu> monkeyBox: 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?
[06:02] <monkeyBox> ok, my bad
[06:02] <neverblue> riotkittie, user error :)
[06:02] <riotkittie> neverblue: no error on my part. i chose sda7, cross my heart.
[06:03] <neverblue> riotkittie, its a computer, it does what the user tells it :)
[06:03] <monkeyBox> I'm trying to get firestarter to work while using my pptp VPN,   but it seems that firestarter blocks GRE protocol (used by pptp).  Is there any way to fix this?
[06:03] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: I didn't think that firestart came with ubuntu
[06:03] <riotkittie> neverblue: not always the case.
[06:03] <neverblue> riotkittie, as for your question, I doubt anyone can do anything to offer an explaination to what happened for you
[06:03] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: try changing the rules
[06:04] <neverblue> but hey, you never know
[06:04] <riotkittie> unless its not that it installed to another partition, but that the partition it did install to... is somehow totally messed up
[06:05] <patrick_> how do i disable alt from opening alternative menus, it gets  in the way when im playing games
[06:05] <wolfeySI> hello any idea why after installing apache, apache wouldnt know its AddType command?
[06:05] <kampred> how to change disk permissions, anyone can give me clue?
[06:05] <wolfeySI> Invalid command 'AddType', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
[06:05] <ikonia_> wolfeySI: its not aware of the extention or associated handler ?
[06:05] <patrick_> nevermind
[06:05] <sethk> riotkittie, I'm confused.  Is the problem that it installed to the wrong space, or that it messed up the space it installed to?  Or both?
[06:06] <patrick_> nevermind
[06:06] <wolfeySI> ikonia_: well AddType just defines file extension.. but apache2.something doesnt understand command at all?
[06:06] <ikonia_> it does
[06:06] <ikonia_> I'm using it
[06:06] <ikonia_> have you put it in the right file ?
[06:06] <wolfeySI> it's about builtin modules ikonia_
[06:07] <ikonia_> so your saying the default config file with no changes from you complains about addtype ?
[06:07] <bastid_raZor> you're
[06:07] <wolfeySI> not exacly default config file, i tried my old config, i basicly need to move stuff on new server
[06:07] <sethk> ikonia, you're, not your
[06:08] <ikonia_> wolfeySI: did you copy your old config file into place ?
[06:08] <wolfeySI> yes
[06:08] <ikonia_> wolfeySI: what was the old version of apache and whats the new ?
[06:08] <nicholas> heguru: sweet. thanks
[06:08] <wolfeySI> old was 2.something and new is definetly 2.2.something
[06:09] <ikonia_> wolfeySI: how did you upgrade, did you update ubuntu versions >?
[06:09] <riotkittie> dont we have better things to do than henpeck about spelling/grammar :x
[06:09] <bjv> searching on ubuntu forums is not letting me specify "wx-config" it's not recognizing the quotes
[06:09] <wolfeySI> ikonia_: it's fresh install of new kubuntu on new server
[06:09] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  I don't see any place in firestarter to set a rule for a specific protocol...
[06:09] <wolfeySI> now i need to move apache, mysql, postfix+courier
[06:10] <bjv> i need the binary 'wx-config', nothing is telling me what package it is in, though?
[06:10] <wolfeySI> to new server
[06:10] <ikonia_> wolfeySI: how did you upgrade the apache version - did ubuntu get updated or did you just update apache ?
[06:10] <sethk> riotkittie, apparently we don't have better things to do than to complain about someone else mentioning spelling or grammar
[06:10] <wolfeySI> ikonia_: it's fresh install on fresh kubuntu
[06:10] <wolfeySI> but i need to move data from old server and possibly keep config
[06:11] <ikonia_> wolfeySI: I read that its a fresh install, but you've changed apache versions, so is ubuntu the same version on the old server as it is on the new
[06:11] <pendek_linu> halo
[06:11] <wolfeySI> ikonia_: no old server has previous version
[06:11] <Yggdrasil> how do i upgrade from edgy to feisty ?
[06:11] <ikonia_> wolfeySI: so what was the old ubuntu version ?
[06:11] <bjv> Q: what package is wx-config in?
[06:11] <ikonia_> man this is like pulling teeth tonight
[06:11] <heguru> monkeyBox: I just verified PPTP connection over firestarter, it works out of the box with default rules
[06:11] <wolfeySI> ikonia_: i dont know. i give up.
[06:12] <ikonia_> wolfeySI: What was your old servers ubuntu version ?
[06:12] <heguru> monkeyBox: again you are connecting to a GRE server right? your machine is not the pptp server?
[06:12] <kkHP> hello
[06:12] <monkeyBox> heguru:  doesn't seem to work for me..  something's blocking GRE.. it shows it in the firestarter log
[06:13] <riotkittie> oh no, i'm multitasking :P but it's silly, and perhaps somewhat rude in an irc channel where a number of the english speakers may not speak it as a first language. but whatever :P
[06:14] <kkHP> i want to give a user full (root) access to mysql and few other services in /etc/init.d/ and also to be able to write/edit files in /etc/mysql and whatever other i decide to . How can i do that using sudo ?
[06:14] <heguru> monkeyBox: ok not really a solution, but firestarter is known to sometimes give problems with VPN connections, guarddog is recommended instead.
[06:14] <ikonia_> kkHP: sudo
[06:14] <monkeyBox> heguru: my machine is the client
[06:14] <monkeyBox> guarddog?  ok, I'll try that
[06:14] <kkHP> ikonia_:  just sudo says i need to add him in the sudoers
[06:14] <kkHP> questions is how exactly
[06:14] <ikonia_> so add him
[06:14] <ikonia_> !sudo >kkhp
[06:15] <erUSUL> kkHP: add him to the admin group and i will be able to use sudo just as you can
[06:15] <heguru> monkeyBox: when you uninstall firestarter, make sure in synaptic you mark for *Complete Removal* it sometimes leaves the rules behind :). Also STOP the firestarter firewall before uninstallation
[06:15] <erUSUL> kkHP: System>Admin>Users and...
[06:15] <Yggdrasil> !upgrade
[06:15] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[06:16] <zeus_> ok, i've tried blacklisting a module (that doesnt seem to work) and i've tried moving the .ko file, and yet the module still loads on startup. how do i stop my old nic driver from loading??
[06:16] <kkHP> i dont want him to have full root access erUSUL
[06:16] <erUSUL> kkHP: if you want more fine grained settings you will have to tweak the sudoers file
[06:16] <erUSUL> kkHP: man sudoers
[06:16] <monkeyBox> heguru, ok, thanks!
[06:17] <erUSUL> kkHP: note that you *must* edit that file with visudo (not random editor)
[06:18] <lluc84> In wich gutsy package can I found the binary log_daemon_msg ?
[06:18] <MatBoy> does someone have a clue why printing via CUPS to a brother printer can be slow ?
[06:18] <genii> kkHP: sudoers file needs special r/w/x permissions which visudo program preserves
[06:18] <zeus_> !blacklist
[06:18] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[06:18] <jetscreamer> you can use any editor btw
[06:19] <MatBoy> jetscreamer, not on Debian anymore ?? ;)
[06:19] <jetscreamer> it's just suggested strongly to use visudo
[06:19] <jetscreamer> i just install ubuntu sometimes
[06:19] <zeus_> i've tried blacklisting r8169, but it still keeps loading.
[06:19] <MatBoy> heh nice
[06:19] <zeus_> anyone?
[06:19] <Pici> lluc84: Gutsy questions in #ubuntu+1 please.
[06:19] <MatBoy> I still have my problem that Xubuntu says it can;t find the internetname
[06:19] <riotkittie> mv ~/Desktop/gutsy-desktop-i386.iso /media/external/backups/discs/
[06:20] <riotkittie> oops. :o
[06:20] <MatBoy> of the machine after logging in
[06:20] <MatBoy> :S
[06:20] <jetscreamer> zeus_: blacklisting works, rm'ing certainly does.... wrong module?
[06:20] <monkeyBox> ick...  any way to make KDE apps look like my Gnome apps?
[06:21] <zeus_> jetscreamer: i moved it from here /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/drivers/net/
[06:21] <sethk> zeus_, use lsmod to list the active modules, make sure the name you blacklisted matches.
[06:21] <astro76> monkeyBox, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/QtGnome
[06:21] <zeus_> jetscreamer:  but i notice there is this directory too /lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ ?
[06:22] <zeus_> jetscreamer: should i move it out of there too ?
[06:22] <sethk> zeus_, the only directory that matters is the one whose name matches the "uname -a" output
[06:22] <jetscreamer> that would be the other kernel , that you're not running so it wouldn't be from there (unless you booted the old kernel)
[06:22] <jetscreamer> what he said
[06:22] <vsayikiran> hello anybody online
[06:22] <jetscreamer> no
[06:22] <monkeyBox> heguru, can guarddog do a NAT setup?
[06:23] <zeus_> jetscreamer: 2.6.20-16-generic it is then
[06:23] <zeus_> jetscreamer:  so if i've moved the r8169.ko file, where is it loading the module from??
[06:24] <Leucothoe> Oh my god O_O
[06:24] <rsk> O_O
[06:24] <neverblue> what can I use to check what codecs a .wav file is using ?
[06:24] <Phobos> Hi. How do I install a custom bootsplash? Got a theme off kde-look.org and don't know how to install it.
[06:25] <jetscreamer> mplayer can tell you but i forget the directive
[06:25] <heguru> monkeyBox: well yes it can, but its a little move complex than firestarter, use the online docs: http://www.simonzone.com/software/guarddog/#manual
[06:25] <jetscreamer> zeus_: not sure. try locate r8169 ... but only the lib/modules/whatever matters
[06:25] <erUSUL> !pm | Dimgr
[06:26] <ubotu> Dimgr: 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.
[06:26] <Princesse> Mouarf.
[06:27] <Dorana> how do I unlock port 22 on Ubuntu 6 server?
[06:27] <monkeyBox> heguru:  from the manual:   "Guarddog is a firewall and is not used for configuring networking features such as IP masquerade and routing. These networking features must be configured using a different program."
[06:27] <heguru> monkeyBox: you would need to install guarddoc + guidedog
[06:27] <zeus_> jetscreamer: could i just prioritise one of the modules instead?
[06:27] <macd> Dorana, do you have openssh-server installed?
[06:27] <gimer7> !list
[06:27] <ubotu> 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
[06:28] <Dorana> macd:yers, tried both that and standard SSH server/client
[06:28] <macd> Dorana, and why you try to ssh to the server you get connection refused?
[06:28] <monkeyBox> ugh,  too bad they had to be all purist and decide to separate it into two different apps.
[06:29] <zeus_> jetscreamer: the only other r8169.ko file is in the old kernel lib folder. is it possible that it's using that one?
[06:29] <neverblue> what can I use to check what codecs a .wav file is using ?
[06:29] <heguru> monkeyBox: well i think its logical, not all machines that need firewall have to be a router
[06:29] <macd> Dorana, a few things to check, restart ssh, 'sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart' , and verify you have no iptables blocking it with 'sudo iptables -L'
[06:29] <Dorana> when I try to ssh localhost i get a message saying Connection refused
[06:30] <astro76> neverblue, I though .wav was uncompressed audio... but try the file command in a terminal ( file filename.wav )
[06:30] <ikonia_> Dorana: is ssh running ?
[06:30] <neverblue> astro76, that was a good start :)
[06:30] <sethk> Dorana, most likely the ssh server package was not installed.  ssh client and ssh server are different packages
[06:30] <macd> Dorana, verify ssh is running 'ps ax | grep ssh'
[06:31] <JuJuBee> How do I use netstat to find the ip address of a switch I am connected to?  I bought a netgear, but the config software is windows based.  I can manage with web browser  but need to find the ip address.
[06:31] <macd> Dorana, yes, as I asked eralier verify openssh-server is installed (though I think the ubuntu server image installs it by default)
[06:31] <monkeyBox> heguru: right, but why can't one app provide both functionalities  (optionally) ?   Most hardware router/firewalls out there are just that:  routers and firewalls in one package.
[06:31] <genii> Dorana: What does ssh 127.0.0.1 report?
[06:31] <Kylie2004>  /join #c#
[06:31] <monkeyBox> anyways,  I can deal w/ it I suppose :)
[06:31] <macd> JuJuBee, what is your computer IP address?
[06:31] <monkeyBox> I did like firestarter though,  very simple easy to use interface
[06:32] <Kylie2004> crap
[06:32] <JuJuBee> 192.168.6.251
[06:32] <Dorana> genii: same result
[06:32] <sethk> monkeyBox, the reason it should be separate is that IP filtering has uses other than trivial "firewall" usage.
[06:32] <riotkittie> wow. it only took me four years to get around to burning a disc under linux
[06:32] <sethk> monkeyBox, I say "firewall" because an IP filter is not a firewall.
[06:32] <macd> JuJuBee, chances are your router is 192.168.2.1 in that case.
[06:32] <Dorana> macd: /usr/sbin/sshd is running
[06:32] <heguru> monkeyBox: well its because thats the ONLY thing they are :), ubuntu is not a router/firewall though it can act one. If you need to configure a box to run just as a router/firewall you should use something like IPCop or Smoothwall on it
[06:33] <macd> Dorana, and you are on the server and trying to ssh to localhost right?
[06:33] <ikonia_> Dorana: are you root ?
[06:33] <JuJuBee> macd : not a router, a switch... Netgear Gig
[06:33] <Dorana> macd: yep,. it's right here
[06:33] <macd> JuJuBee, switches dont have IP's.
[06:33] <ikonia_> Dorana: are you root ?
[06:33] <Wooksta> does anyone know of a good tutorial / HOWTO for setting up an SVN repo (server) over SSH?
[06:33] <neverblue> JuJuBee, why do you have to access the device anyways ?
[06:33] <sethk> monkeyBox, I saddens me that, for marketting purposes, people started selling software that pretended to be a "firewall" on windows, and linux people have then made the same misrepresentation.
[06:33] <JuJuBee> It must set one to vlan 1 via dhcp.
[06:33] <Dorana> ikonia_ : basiclu, I'm sudo mode
[06:33] <void^> riotkittie: your perserverance is admirable
[06:33] <ikonia_> Dorana: whats "sudo" mode
[06:33] <JuJuBee> neverblue : no console port all done via www
[06:33] <ikonia_> Dorana: you are either root or not
[06:33] <xerophyte4>  can i have CNAME like this " domain.com IN CNAME domain.net" in the domain.com record ?
[06:33] <macd> Wooksta, just setup SVN and you can use svn+ssh://server/path/to/repo to access it remotly
[06:33] <riotkittie> :D
[06:33] <genii> Dorana: If the daemon is running and port is correct, the other things are: will not allow a ssh root login, and: a firewall may be running
[06:34] <neverblue> JuJuBee, that doesnt really answer my question :)
[06:34] <ikonia_> xerophyte4: yes
[06:34] <JuJuBee> Yes, I ahve access.
[06:34] <X324B> SUDO is like make root for this command
[06:34] <JuJuBee> Directly connected.
[06:34] <codervnn> help me
[06:34] <Dorana> ikona_ : I access roo taccess using sudo, loging in as root on ubuntu???
[06:34] <aidsMONKEY> greetings, anyone know why when I try to install ubuntu, it always hangs after the install where it prompts me to press enter after the disk ejects?
[06:34] <codervnn> i can use iptables
[06:34] <Wooksta> macd, ive tried that (i followed a tutorial but i can't get the access via ssh, i can do it via websvn / webdav or something)
[06:34] <ikonia_> Dorana: type "id" and tell me what it says please
[06:34] <DjViper> Dorana: you don't log in as root
[06:34] <codervnn> help me
[06:34] <codervnn> i can use iptables
[06:34] <macd> Wooksta, did you install svn via the repos? and is ssh installed?
[06:34] <ikonia_> codervnn: please be patient, someone will get to you
[06:34] <codervnn> how to user install and user
[06:34] <genii> or "whoami"
[06:35] <ikonia_> genii: no - id so you can see his current uid
[06:35] <Dorana> genii: Well since I'm on localhost any externalk firewall are discluded
[06:35] <JuJuBee> neverblue ?
[06:35] <ikonia_> Dorana: show me "id"
[06:35] <erUSUL> codervnn: you can or can not use iptables ??
[06:35] <heguru> codervnn: ahaan so your problem is that you CAN use iptables?
[06:35] <codervnn> yes
[06:35] <xerophyte4> ikonia, how can i test that
[06:35] <neverblue> JuJuBee, nevermind, I cannot assist you anymore
[06:35] <JuJuBee> k
[06:35] <codervnn> me can not user iptables
[06:35] <tatters> If I compile a program and it requires the kernal headers and the kernal changes does that mean I would have to recompile the program again against the current kernal else it will break?
[06:35] <Dorana> ikonia_  : uid=101(matrim) etc etc etc
[06:35] <ikonia_> xerophyte4: set it up on a dns server
[06:36] <genii> Dorana: Firewall rules for programs like guarddog and firestarter can exclude local access also
[06:36] <macd> tatters, most likely you will have to rebuilt it, yes.
[06:36] <codervnn> you can help me
[06:36] <JuJuBee> I thought netstat could provide ip's of any device on my lan?
[06:36] <ikonia_> Dorana: ok - so your not root, please show me the exact command your using to ssh to localhost "exactly"
[06:36] <neverblue> traceroute
[06:36] <erUSUL> codervnn: did you get any error when you try?
[06:36] <Dorana> genii : software firewalls yes, but I'm not using them
[06:36] <Wooksta> macd, sorry i told a lie forgot that my server box is debian, http://www.howtoforge.com/debian_subversion_websvn <--- thats the tutorial i followed
[06:36] <heguru> JuJuBee: only those connected to your machine, or those you are connected to. Use nmap to find all ip's on your lan

[06:37] <broedje> when i burn a Damn-SMall ISO with k3b i cannot boot from it... do i need a special setting?
[06:37] <xerophyte4> ikonia, i did .. when i do dig domain.com CNAME @localhost ..  i am not getting the cname return ?
[06:37] <Dorana> ikonia_ : tried both using "ssh localhost" when in usermode, and "ssh -l matrim localhost"
[06:37] <macd> Wooksta, well that looks like a pretty thorough tutorial, but the ubuntu method differs, you should join #debian.
[06:38] <ikonia_> Dorana: are you putting "sudo" infront of it ?
[06:38] <Wooksta> macd, np thanks :)
[06:38] <ikonia_> Dorana: what is "user mode" ?

[06:38] <Dorana> ikonia_ : shouldn't have tol the client doesn't need sudo, aswell it should be accessable from my other machione in ther same loical system
[06:38] <ikonia_> macd: there is no such thing - your either using sudo - or your not
[06:38] <guru> is anyone else getting this error on a fresh install of phpmyadmin on feisty-fawn: #1045 - Access denied for user 'www-data'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
[06:39] <RedGhost> Hey, setting up X I chose a resolution too high for the nVidia driver I guess and X messes up, where can I change the current resolution, is it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[06:39] <ikonia_> Dorana: basiclly I'm trying to find out if your sshing as a root user as root access is denied automaticlly
[06:39] <macd> Dorana, says user mode meaning, not sudo.
[06:39] <ikonia_> hence the error
[06:39] <Dorana> macd : yes
[06:39] <heguru> !vi > me
[06:39] <ikonia_> guru: you've not set the root password for mysql
[06:39] <macd> and when you ssh as root, you just cant auth, you dont get connection refused.
[06:39] <astro76> RedGhost, yeah... how did you set it the first time?
[06:39] <guru> ikonia_: yes i have
[06:39] <ikonia_> macd: you do get connection regused
[06:39] <erUSUL> codervnn: this just shows that your tables are empty

[06:40] <karel> Audio isn't working in 2.6.20-16, it is however working in 2.6.20-15, If I'm right it did work in -16 this morning but I'm not sure. Anyone know how to fix it? (or where to start?)
[06:40] <RedGhost> astro76 during installation it asked me what resolutions I want. I have deleted the "too high" resolutions from xorg.cfg but it still keeps trying to start in 1600x1050

[06:44] <X324B> thx
[06:44] <guru> there is something messed up in the phpmyadmin package; it doesn't seem to be taking the username from the correct variable
[06:44] <rothchild> HI how do I set network manager to be unlocked automatically at boot rather than having to type in a password every time?
[06:44] <KyleS-work> woah, 1181 people O.o
[06:44] <BigDaddy> hello yet again yall
[06:44] <jbsn> will ubuntu read a file system from a windows vista system ? i have a deal windows vista system I need to get data off the drive :)
[06:45] <heguru> rothchild: instamm pam_keyring
[06:45] <heguru> rothchild: *install
[06:45] <KyleS-work> yes
[06:45] <HEP85> jbsn: it will not only read but also write
[06:45] <riotkittie> jbsn: it should
[06:45] <tatters> Quak3r  problem is I used to run aircrack on dapper but feisty onwards it seems my rt2500 driver changed making packet injection not possible
[06:45] <KyleS-work> it can read ntfs-3g
[06:45] <astro76> rothchild, http://staff.xiaoka.com/smoku/2007/05/17/password-hell-resolved/

[06:45] <jbsn> HEP85, cool thanks.
[06:45] <BigDaddy> Got what should be a simple question, but I am wanting to double check
[06:46] <riotkittie> BigDaddy: and your should-be-simple question is? ;)
[06:46] <macd> !justask | BigDaddy
[06:46] <ubotu> BigDaddy: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:46] <BigDaddy> What folder would I put a script in to ensure that it runs every log on regardless of DE
[06:46] <rothchild> hmm ok thanks I tried that tutorial before but couldn't get the machine to reboot, second time lucky I guess!
[06:46] <KyleS-work> .bash_profile?
[06:46] <macd> BigDaddy, it doesnt depend on the folder, it depends on the user running the script
[06:47] <KyleS-work> maybe /etc/rc.local
[06:47] <macd> ohh, nvm I misunderstood
[06:47] <Hallie> I'm having a problem connecting to the internet with wifi for 6.06 anyone have suggestions?
[06:47] <astro76> BigDaddy, what does it do?
[06:47] <BigDaddy> I have a script for mouse configuration that all have access to
[06:47] <guru> who maintains the phpmyadmin package?
[06:47] <rothchild> oh yeah astro76 thanks for your help with compiz the other night, finally got 'Dodge' plugin working
[06:47] <BigDaddy> supposed to allow special button usage
[06:47] <riotkittie> Hallie: what adapter? open a terminal and type lspci ... let us know the chipset
[06:47] <astro76> rothchild, I think that was someone else... but I'll take the credit :P
[06:47] <Mr_> Hallie: what do you use? wifi radar?
[06:48] <guru> the solution was to install php5-mcrypt. this package needs to be included in the dependancy information for the phpmyadmin package
[06:48] <KyleS-work> wicd is the best :P
[06:48] <Hallie> I'm not on atm, i boot from livecd
[06:48] <Dorana> macd: did you think of any solution, been trying to get it working so I missed alot of text
[06:48] <theo_> anyone using parallels?
[06:48] <macd> guru, its an upstream package so,  Thijs Kinkhorst <thijs@debian.org>
[06:48] <un_dave> can someone help me stop a module loading?
[06:49] <BigDaddy> I believe in GNOME, they have a startup manager or a Session manager
[06:49] <macogw> un_dave: blacklist
[06:49] <BigDaddy> But KDE doesn't seem to have that
[06:49] <macd> guru, php5-mcrypt is a dependancy
[06:49] <riotkittie> un_dave: how exactly are you blacklisting it?
[06:49] <theo_> is there any other window manager for ubuntu?
[06:49] <macogw> theo_: probably 50
[06:49] <macd> guru: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/web/phpmyadmin I take that back its recommended
[06:49] <theo_> example?
[06:49] <HEP85> Is it possible to add the default repositories as well in 32-Bit as in 64-Bit as packet sources?
[06:49] <macd> guru, you can file a bug on Launchpad for that.
[06:49] <guru> macd: sure
[06:50] <astro76> BigDaddy, KDE has some Autostart directory... you can use /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
[06:50] <riotkittie> BigDaddy: i believe there is - i want to say its ksession or something but... kde scares me and i dont touch it, so i should just shut up and let someone in the know reply
[06:50] <macd> guru, good catch there btw :)
[06:50] <un_dave> riotkittie:  i've added the line blacklist r8169 to /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[06:50] <macogw> theo_: enlightenment, pwm, windowmaker, icewm, fluxbox, openbox, blackbox, compiz, beryl, compiz fusion, metacity (default), kwin...
[06:50] <BigDaddy> lol, thanks riot
[06:50] <theo_> thanks
[06:50] <astro76> BigDaddy, is this running xmodmap out of curiousity?
[06:50] <theo_> i am using parallels and beryl does not work
[06:50] <BigDaddy> astro - not that is not it. It is imwheel
[06:50] <guru> macd: https://launchpad.net/deisy?
[06:50] <NET||abuse> Hey guys.. I can't seem to drag and drop files out of File roller into a directory? is there a reason for this?
[06:50] <macogw> theo_: *box will make you look 1337
[06:50] <NET||abuse> it seems odd.
[06:50] <macd> Dorana, not really, you didnt change any configuration of it manually did you? you can also try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server'
[06:51] <BigDaddy> astro76 - do you have experence with multibutton mice config?
[06:51] <rothchild> BigDaddy there is also a folder in /home/username/.kde/autostart
[06:51] <macogw> theo_: pwm and icewm look like windows 95, i think
[06:51] <guru> macd: i always run into the less-than-common errors ;)
[06:51] <theo_> 1337?
[06:51] <macd> guru, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[06:51] <BigDaddy> rothchild - I am wanting it for all users.
[06:51] <sethk> Dorana, are you certain that at some point openssh-server was installed?  It is NOT installed by default.
[06:51] <macd> then follow the instructions to file it.
[06:51] <macogw> theo_: they're very minimalist so using them alone makes you look like a hacker in a movie
[06:51] <un_dave> riotkittie: that doesnt seem to do anything. plus, i've moved the .ko file from the drivers/net folder, yet still it loads!
[06:51] <theo_> what do you advise for using with parallels?
[06:51] <theo_> lol
[06:51] <astro76> BigDaddy, Then, if desired, you have to tell X11 to run imwheel whenever X11 is started (modifying /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60imwheel_start-imwheel _and_ changing IMWHEEL_START=0 to =1 in /etc/X11/imwheel/startup.conf).
[06:51] <BigDaddy> I guess I could put it in all profiles. it just doesn't sound righ thought
[06:51] <macd> sethk, sshd is listed as a running process.
[06:51] <macogw> theo_: all you need to use is something non-compositing, probably, so the default metacity should work fine
[06:51] <astro76> BigDaddy, yeah, the latest I've used is this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto
[06:51] <riotkittie> un_dave: how bizarre. but i'm not well versed in blacklisting, so... :|
[06:52] <sethk> macd, ok, I missed that part of the conversation.
[06:52] <BigDaddy> astro, that is where I am coming from as well
[06:52] <theo_> but i want to do the cube
[06:52] <macd> !blacklist | riotkittie
[06:52] <ubotu> riotkittie: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[06:52] <astro76> BigDaddy, if you do that bit I quoted you X will start it
[06:52] <macd> ;)
[06:52] <macogw> theo_: no cube without compositing
[06:52] <Dorana> macd : reinstalled it 4 times
[06:52] <theo_> (show my stupid friends how cool ubuntu is)
[06:52] <macogw> theo_: no parallels with compositing
[06:52] <macogw> theo_: pick one
[06:52] <theo_> that sucks
[06:52] <theo_> thanks anyway
[06:53] <macogw> theo_: enlightenment 17 is very pretty, though no cube
[06:53] <riotkittie> macd: un_dave says he's done that <cough> and its not working :P
[06:53] <macd> Dorana, lets try something else, 'telnet localhost 22'
[06:53] <macd> Dorana, do you get the openssh banner?
[06:53] <guru> macd: #114044 PHPMyAdmin will not run on 64bit without php5-mcrypt, forgotten requirement?
[06:53] <un_dave> riotkittie: that i have.
[06:53] <riotkittie> i grasp blacklisting to that extent. but beyond that... oye.
[06:53] <macd> guru looks fine to me
[06:53] <guru> macd: that's listed as fixed as of 2007-06-01 but it doesn't appear to be fixed
[06:54] <guru> macd: that wasn't ny entry, it was already entered
[06:54] <macd> guru, its still listed as a optional in packages.
[06:54] <HEP85> Is it possible to add the default repositories as well in 32-Bit as in 64-Bit as packet sources?
[06:54] <BigDaddy> astro76 - I am not kidding. I have been doing this for 12 hours straight and I have not got this to work yet
[06:54] <un_dave> there is a blacklist-oss file, that i guess could be the master?
[06:54] <macd> guru,   http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/web/phpmyadmin
[06:54] <guru> macd: should i update that defect or should i create a new one?
[06:54] <un_dave> it has lots more modules listed in it

[06:54] <macd> guru, one sec, let me look at the existing one. are you on amd64 ?
[06:55] <guru> macd: yes
[06:55] <barosl> "default ubuntu mirror of korea has been dead for one month" any linguistic problem in this sentence?
[06:55] <BigDaddy> astro76 - some POS 7 button
[06:55] <Dorana> macd : when should I get it?

[06:55] <ubotu> Mr_: To change your themes, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy.  Kubuntu users should visit https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizeKubuntu.
[06:55] <macd> Dorana, as soon as you hit enter on that command
[06:55] <Mr_> Thanks
[06:55] <Dorana> macd : on the install?
[06:56] <Dorana> or on the connect?
[06:56] <astro76> BigDaddy, maybe start with the example  for the Logitech 510
[06:56] <riotkittie> that sentence makes me think ubuntu is mirroring a country. but hey, i'm just slightly stupid so ignore me :P
[06:56] <sebrock> anyone knows how ACPI works on with a mac mini + feisty
[06:56] <sebrock> ?
[06:56] <macd> Dorana, the connect.
[06:56] <macd> guru, I resubscribed the person that needs to know, so it should be dealt with shortly.
[06:56] <Dorana> macd : nope, it just returns the connection refused directly
[06:56] <guru> macd: thanks
[06:56] <magnetron> barosl: of korea or in korea?
[06:56] <barosl> hmm
[06:57] <barosl> the mirror is located in Korea
[06:57] <guru> macd: heh, i never got that when i was on debian - you report a bug and it's instantly PEBKAC ;)
[06:57] <barosl> then "in korea" is right?
[06:57] <macd> Dorana, Im not really sure what to tell you to be honest.
[06:57] <frojnd> hello there
[06:57] <frojnd> I have xvid problem. In windows everything great, but with movie player in feisty the movie is out of sync.. Why is that?
[06:58] <sebrock> anyone knows how ACPI works on with a mac mini + feisty
[06:58] <Dr_Willis_> sebrock i belive theres a mac ubuntu forum area.
[06:58] <kahrytan> frojnd, try vlc?
[06:58] <astro76> frojnd, try VLC... also what's your processor?
[06:58] <kahrytan> astro76, lmao.
[06:58] <riotkittie> korean mirro. in korea. whatever. i guess the original does work but... something about it just... eh.
[06:58] <Dorana> macd : not me,. first time I gotten this error, tried reinstalling it again and still same thing, get it no matter if I have it installed or not, even tried without connecting to the network to see if the external forewall was blocking
[06:58] <astro76> heh
[06:58] <Mr_> Can anyone tell me where the gdm themes folder is located?
[06:59] <frojnd> astro76: amd athlon 3000+ 64 kernel is i386
[06:59] <barosl> i'm meaning http://kr.archive.ubuntu.com/
[06:59] <HEP85> sebrock: dunno, but first thing I always try when ACPI is not working is boot option acpi=force
[06:59] <magnetron> Mr_: did you read the link i gave you?
[06:59] <macd> Dorana, I've never seen anyone not be able to ssh localhost, by chance did you change your hostname in /etc/hosts and not reboot?
[06:59] <barosl> i guess the domains is allocated for all other countries?
[06:59] <barosl> are*
[06:59] <astro76> frojnd, yeah try VLC it will probably work, it also let's you adjust sync manually
[06:59] <kahrytan> frojnd, i386 is not the kernel
[06:59] <macd> Dorana, something else to try I guess, 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall openssh-server'  that will purge the old configs and download a new package
[07:00] <riotkittie> mmhm. the sentence is fine.
[07:00] <magnetron> barosl: you could phrase it "for Korea"
[07:00] <frojnd> kahrytan: I know, version
[07:00] <Dorana> macd : rebooted over and over :/
[07:00] <barosl> magnetron, can i use "korean mirror" too?
[07:00] <Mr_> magnetron: yes
[07:01] <kahrytan> frojnd, are using compiz?
[07:01] <magnetron> oh, thank you riotkittie!
[07:01] <petterah> hello ppl, I don't know if this is a bug, but gutsy tribe 5 have problems getting the dpi corrent on to of my computers, one LCD , one laptop, feisty always detected 96 dpi, with 10 size fonts, but gutsy gets it at 75 dpi, which makes the fonts ber tiny...
[07:01] <magnetron> Mr_: on that page, it says that you should drag the theme file to the theme windows
[07:01] <un_dave> damn. still no good. i've added r8169 to my_blacklist, blacklist and blacklist-oss. is it possible i'm getting the name of the module wrong?
[07:02] <magnetron> !gutsy | petterah
[07:02] <ubotu> petterah: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[07:02] <Dr_Willis_> petterah Gutsy is still a work in progress  :)
[07:02] <Mr_> Ohh I see
[07:02] <Dorana> mcd : BTW : isn't there an autoremove command for apt? to clean out nonused stuff?
[07:02] <Mr_> Thanks
[07:02] <kahrytan> Dorana, yes
[07:02] <kritzstapf> Dorana: apt-get autoremove :)
[07:02] <un_dave> it definitely says r8169 when i type in lsmod

[07:02] <Dorana> kahrytan: can't gert it to work...
[07:03] <kahrytan> Dorana, sudo apt-get autoremove
[07:03] <Dorana> kritzstapf: tried, sais it's not a valid option
[07:03] <Mr_> magnetron: says file is invalid
[07:03] <un_dave> hrm. maybe i should try loading them in a different order?
[07:03] <kritzstapf> Dorana: sure youre using ubuntu?
[07:03] <magnetron> Mr_: then it's invalid
[07:03] <Dorana> kritzstapf: Dapper-Drake
[07:03] <AshDragonSca> Greetings, can anyone help me with ndiswrapper?
[07:03] <kritzstapf> Dorana: hm, dont know if dapper had autoremove
[07:03] <kritzstapf> obviously it hasnt

[07:04] <der0b> heya folks, I've seen it countless times and can't find it now.  I need to know how to make a list of all my installed applications so that I can easily reinstall them on another ubuntu machine.  can you point me in the right direction?
[07:04] <Dorana> kahrytan: I wish, but the owner of the server refuses to update since 6.06 has longer support time :/
[07:04] <bstock> der0b: dpkg -l
[07:04] <bruenig> dpkg --get-selections or some such
[07:04] <kahrytan> Dorana, They will next april though
[07:04] <Mr_> I got is from gnome-look.org, what would cause it to be invalid?
[07:04] <riotkittie> bstock: move your hand faster?  errr nothing under mouse options?
[07:04] <bstock> so you can do 'dpkg -l > output.txt'
[07:05] <petterah> Dr_willis, magnetron  ok :) just wanted to make sure everything gets well for the release.. but i could check in the correct channel
[07:05] <bruenig> no there is a set way where you can do dpkg --get-selections > output.txt and then later do dpkg --get-selections < output.txt
[07:05] <bruenig> something like that
[07:05] <macd> Dorana, by chance did you try 'ssh user@ipofthenic'
[07:05] <bstock> not really, mouse options only let me adjust acceleration, which makes it so it speeds up as it moves, and i just want it faster overall
[07:05] <bstock> adjusting sensativity doesn't do much
[07:05] <GIn> hi
[07:05] <bstock> doesn't do anything AFAI can tell
[07:05] <Dorana> macd: yuepp
[07:05] <genii> bruenig: for the second part you want dpkg --set-selections
[07:06] <Dorana> kahrytan: whats the most recent server release?
[07:06] <GIn> I have installed kubuntu via apt-get how do I go back to Ubuntu settings?
[07:06] <riotkittie> ive never had probs with my mice :|
[07:06] <bruenig> yes that is what I meant
[07:06] <macogw> Dorana: 7.04....same as desktop
[07:06] <kahrytan> Dorana, next LTS is next April
[07:06] <macogw> GIn: what do you mean?
[07:07] <monkeyBox> has anyone ever experienced virtualbox using up 50%-100% CPU while idle?  It didn't do that back when I had gentoo...
[07:07] <sanguisdex> Hi there just wanted to report back to the people that help me w/ my torrent problem, it was an issue w/ my ubuntu fire wall settings and once I installed firestarter and unblocked the ports torrents worked fine
[07:07] <kahrytan> Dorana, http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/1099
[07:07] <riotkittie> GIn: on the login screen, you should have an option for "sessions". choose gnome theere.
[07:07] <macogw> GIn: you can pick if you use gnome or kde by clicking options > sessions on the login screen (or just "sessions" if you set a non-default login screen)
[07:07] <GIn> riotkittie, I know, but my ubuntu still uses kubuntu settings when logged in gnome
[07:07] <macogw> sanguisdex: there are no ports blocked by default
[07:08] <GIn> any way to uninstall kubuntu?
[07:08] <macogw> GIn: what are "kubuntu settings"?
[07:08] <macogw> GIn: sudo apt-get remove --purge kubuntu-desktop

[07:09] <Hobbsee> excellent :)
[07:10] <riotkittie> ho hum. failed burn #2. i'm batting 1000 here. not.
[07:10] <gurkburk> im having such a headache with my ntfs partitions.. is there any way to, under linux ofcourse, rename a ntfs-partition? I just want the name to change..
[07:10] <Linuturk> sup guys? I've got a variation on this script: http://tuxmobil.org/software/toshiba_portege_m200/switch_orientation  << in /usr/local/bin/ with chmod +x for execute. When I attempt to run the script, I receive a bad interpretor
[07:10] <gurkburk> its called "F: 300B" and another "E: 200GB" and the :'s and spaces makes newbie-fstab etc etc pain in the ass :-p
[07:11] <coucou747> hi all
[07:11] <flugendufel> hello there
[07:11] <Dr_Willis_> gurkburk the fstab can use /dev/whatever entries and you can set it to mount to whever ya want. changeign its name.
[07:11] <macd> Linuturk, are you on 64bit?
[07:11] <kahrytan> gurkburk,  name them like window's does?
[07:11] <riotkittie> gurkburk: errr.  dont worry about the windows naming convention.
[07:11] <Dr_Willis_> gurkburk its proberly using the disks lavel as the default name. Change the mountpoint in fstab.
[07:11] <Linuturk> macd: nope
[07:11] <gurkburk> I know it can theoretically be named anything...
[07:12] <metellius> I am using a webcam driver that uses quite a bit of battery on my laptop. How can I keep ubuntu from loading the module automatically at boot and instead do it manually? Or maybe there is another way to keep the module from using battery through the webcam?
[07:12] <macd> Linuturk, did you chmod +x or chmod a+x it ;)
[07:12] <gurkburk> Its just that ubuntu seems to automount stuff when I reboot, and having names that have : and spaces etc, makes using umount, mount etc etc kindof annoying
[07:12] <Linuturk> macd: sudo chmod 777 blah
[07:12] <magnetron> !blacklist | metellius
[07:12] <ubotu> metellius: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[07:13] <kahrytan> gurkburk, you want to name it like how Windows does it?
[07:13] <macd> Linuturk, does 'sh /path/to/script' work ?
[07:13] <tsukasa> need some help, i cant get nvidia-settings to work. it keeps telling me to run nvidia-xconfig which i do but when i restart x it says run it again
[07:13] <Linuturk> macd: haven't tried that, one sec
[07:13] <riotkittie> ive got to boot into windows so i can burn. heh.
[07:13] <kahrytan> gurkburk,  a Disk label?
[07:13] <genii> magnetron: Can you still modprobe <modname> if it's blacklisted?
[07:13] <gurkburk> Yes, since ubuntu automatically (cant figure out how to turn it off) mounts my partitions as the "window's label"
[07:13] <Linuturk> macd: ok, it threw some errors
[07:13] <Linuturk> syntax
[07:13] <Linuturk> let me fiddle some more
[07:14] <kaje> Is there a way I can tell which repository a package came from?
[07:14] <gurkburk> meaning, the disc that in windows was ntfs and labeled F: 300GB (it had the F: in the actual label), then I get a "F: 300GB" in my /media (its called /media/F:\040300GB) and in fstab and its annoying! :-p
[07:14] <macd> Linuturk, yeah sounds like general bash scripting problems now :)
[07:14] <kahrytan> gurkburk, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive
[07:14] <Dorana> kahrytan , macd : found error.... going to bash the owner now,. he shanged ports for all connection while tsting some stuff without documenting any changes
[07:14] <Pici> kaje: apt-cache policy packagename should tell you
[07:14] <Linuturk> macd: did you see the link? does the syntax look bad?
[07:14] <kaje> Pici: thanks!
[07:14] <gurkburk> kahrytan: right, ill check that even though its sata-discs, thanks m8 :)
[07:15] <genii> metellius: If you know the problemmatic module name you can "rmmod <modulename>"  to remove it from a running kernel or "modprobe <modulename>" to insert it
[07:15] <macd> Linuturk, I didnt catch a link if you pastebinned the script
[07:15] <Linuturk> http://tuxmobil.org/software/toshiba_portege_m200/switch_orientation << all I did was add some comments and change a few keycode values
[07:15] <gurkburk> kahrytan:  you dont happen to know if I can make ubuntu (running feisty fawn) stop automounting?
[07:15] <macd> Dorana, wonderful.
[07:15] <Linuturk> macd: ^^
[07:15] <kahrytan> gurkburk, edit fstab
[07:15] <gurkburk> If I remove the lines in fstab, and reboot, its edited with new entries for the discs
[07:15] <Dorana> macd: this is why you ALWAYS write documentation of changes :P
[07:16] <macd> Linuturk, I see the error, change the path to xrandr to /usr/bin/xrandr
[07:16] <gurkburk> kahrytan:  Could be ntfs-3g that I installed perhaps, since its ntfs-discs
[07:16] <Linuturk> macd: no, that isn't it. do a "whereis xrandr"
[07:16] <Linuturk> macd: it will show that path
[07:16] <kaje> Pici: that didn't seem to work... only told me the version information
[07:16] <gurkburk> kahrytan: All I know is that im fully capable of making mounts in fstab myself, if it wernt for ubuntu screwing me over every reboot :-p
[07:16] <macd> Linuturk, on feisty it is, do 'which xrandr, and which xmodmap'
[07:17] <kahrytan> gurkburk, turn off ntfs-3g and find out
[07:17] <macd> Linuturk, which makes the difference in shell scripts, its the absolute path.
[07:17] <macd> Linuturk, so both xrandr and xmodmap should be changed to /usr/bin/
[07:17] <macogw> gurkburk: try using ntfs-config to make changes
[07:18] <Pici> kaje: Are you sure, mine has a line that says "500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com feisty/main Packages
[07:18] <macd> Dorana, well I guess we could have tried using 'lsof' to find out what pot ssh was bound to, but it never came to mind to be honest. I just ASSumed it was 22.
[07:18] <Linuturk> macd: ok, I fixed all those, and I'm getting the same error
[07:18] <Dorana> macd : all working now, thanks for the helping hand ^^
[07:18] <macd> Linuturk, paste the error in pastebin plz
[07:18] <Linuturk> something like, expecting "then" but got "fi" macd
[07:19] <kaje> Pici: I'm starting to wonder if this package was downloaded and installed... thanks for the help
[07:19] <guru> does anyone here use freevo?
[07:19] <macd> Linuturk, yeah its missing some ;'s
[07:20] <guru> or better yet, does anyone here know of an alternative to mythtv that allows buffering of a video source?
[07:20] <Linuturk> where macd ?
[07:20] <macd> Linuturk, remove the ; after the first if line
[07:20] <macd> Linuturk, so ] ; becomes just  ] 
[07:21] <Linuturk> ok, macd
[07:21] <gurkburk> macogw: thanks for your tip's, gonna reboot and fiddle some with this ;)
[07:21] <freetos> is anyone else having problems recording something with ubuntustudio's default configuration?
[07:22] <macd> Linuturk, lets just hope my bash isnt as rusty as I think it is ;)
[07:22] <sistom> How come every avi file I try and open it crashes every single movie player I try and open it with?
[07:23] <riotkittie> sistom: do you have the proper codecs installed?
[07:23] <rsk> sistom: buygged drivers?
[07:23] <rsk> sistom: tried mplayer?
[07:23] <sistom> I have gone thru the synaptic and searched for codecs a few times
[07:23] <sistom> and installed all the ones that sound appropriate
[07:23] <magnetron> !codec | sistom
[07:23] <ubotu> sistom: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:23] <sistom> yes mplayer crashes
[07:24] <rsk> sistom: what error does mplayer give?
[07:24] <sistom> one sec
[07:24] <sistom> oh
[07:24] <sistom> mplayer just hangs
[07:24] <magnetron> sistom: install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package
[07:24] <sistom> and then says it recieved a signal 6
[07:24] <rsk> sistom: mplayer from command line or gmplayer fromGUI ?
[07:24] <Linuturk> macd: cleaning it up? what should I change?
[07:24] <macd> Linuturk, just remove the ; I mentioned it should work fine
[07:24] <X324B> may I ask a question about dual monitors on an ATI video card ?
[07:24] <sistom> gui
[07:25] <rsk> sistom: try command line
[07:25] <macd> sistom, you can run mplayer from console with gdb and create a trace which can better help to diagnose the problem, i.e. in terminal 'gdb mplayer'
[07:25] <X324B> If I just hook up another monitor will Ubuntu work on both ?
[07:25] <riotkittie> i would rather have another child than go through the pain of trying to get dual monitors going on an ati :|
[07:25] <astro76> sistom, yeah install ubuntu-restricted-extras, also did you happen to install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll ? that caused similar behavior for me
[07:26] <sistom> ubuntu-restrict ver. 2.2?
[07:26] <astro76> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:26] <ubotu> ubuntu-restricted-extras: Commonly used restricted packages. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 2.2 (feisty), package size 1 kB, installed size 32 kB
[07:26] <Linuturk> macd: not working :-/
[07:26] <riotkittie> X324B: i believe you'll need to edit xorg.conf to some extent, even if you just want to get them cloned
[07:27] <X324B> Thanks
[07:27] <riotkittie> brb. booting live cd :o
[07:27] <bwl> To install ubuntu on a software raid + lvm partition schema, is it recommended to create the whole disk as one big raid array and add lvm on top of that?
[07:27] <nightfreak> hi, when trying to install packages an a remote server i get an error: Err http://security.ubuntu.com dapper-security/main php5 5.1.2-1ubuntu3.4
[07:27] <nightfreak>   404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.90.138 80] 
[07:27] <macd> Linuturk, paste the error on pastebin plz
[07:27] <sistom> gstreamer isn't installed
[07:27] <sistom> well that one you said isn;t.
[07:27] <nightfreak> any idea whats wrong?
[07:28] <macd> Linuturk, ohh and the script as you have it currently
[07:28] <timothy_> I am a novice and need assistance
[07:28] <disposition> can anyone help me regarding a problem with how my system is reading partitions?
[07:28] <USMarine> bwl yes, you have to use the alternate cd
[07:29] <nunya> with what timothy?
[07:29] <bwl> nightfreak: i guess you've done an apt-get update?
[07:29] <Linuturk> one sec macd
[07:29] <USMarine> disposition what's the problem?
[07:29] <disposition> i have a 100gb partition split into a 17 and a 74 gig. my / directory reports 3.2 when i disable disk analysis of my second partition
[07:29] <timothy_> I am logged in as admin but do not have root access
[07:29] <disposition> but my system is telling me i'm full, and that my primary partition has 16.2gb used up
[07:29] <bwl> USMarine: i've tried it but I first created one separate partition for /boot and then rest for raid + lvm -- now I read that it was possible to just use the whole disk as raid + lvm
[07:29] <disposition> df and du report that my primary partition is full
[07:29] <sistom> Installing ubuntu-restricted-extras v. 2.2
[07:29] <sistom> that should fix it?
[07:30] <USMarine> bwl boot can't be in lvm, well at least without some tweaking
[07:30] <disposition> could it be possible that i accidently copied over 13gb of data to my /media/dispona (second partition mount point) before it actually mounted?
[07:30] <nunya> timothy_: you enabled the root account, or your username is admin?
[07:31] <erUSUL> disposition: no, you can not copy data if the fs is not mounted
[07:31] <USMarine> disposition is there a mount point in the 74gb one?
[07:31] <sistom> if you want to enable root you have to type: sudo passwd root
[07:31] <Linuturk> macd: pastebin.ca/709402
[07:31] <timothy_> user name is timothy and I have given myself administrator access
[07:31] <nightfreak> bwl no, now it works, thanks
[07:31] <ephesius> does anyone know why i wouldn't be able to login to ubuntu?
[07:31] <disposition> USMarine: yes, /media/disponia
[07:31] <USMarine> ephesius account disabled, wrong pass
[07:31] <erUSUL> sistom: do not advice on enabling root please
[07:31] <erUSUL> !root | sistom
[07:31] <ubotu> sistom: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:31] <sistom> o_O
[07:31] <savetheWorld> just noticed this - is it normal for there to be about  4000 lines of bash functions pre-defined for user ?
[07:32] <macd> Linuturk, line 37 complete the work orientation
[07:32] <bwl> USMarine: thanks, so my installation using one raid1 partition for /boot and rest for lvm should be okey without any special tweak?
[07:32] <macd> word*
[07:32] <opium> or your can boot your ubuntu box into single user mode and change the root password
[07:32] <timothy_> I need root access while installing programs from the GUI
[07:32] <nunya> timothy_: you username already has admin privs. You have to preface your commands with sudo
[07:32] <vulcanius> sistom, you should use sudo in every situation possible unless root as just absolutely necessary
[07:32] <ephesius> USMarine, it is the right password and i don't think the account is disabled, when i try to login it just freezes, well not freezes but it just never logs in or anything is just sits there same when I try to login in the terminal
[07:32] <Linuturk> o, sorry
[07:32] <USMarine> bwl raid1 is space sum right, not mirror?
[07:32] <Linuturk> lol, that was something left over from testing macd
[07:32] <stefg> !root | timothy_
[07:32] <ubotu> timothy_: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:32] <nunya> timothy_ ex... sudo aptitude install application
[07:32] <bwl> USMarine: mirror
[07:33] <USMarine> add a /boot and swap
[07:33] <USMarine> then map the rest with lvm
[07:33] <sistom> aye aye
[07:33] <USMarine> swap can be in the lvm also
[07:33] <USMarine> just a question of preference
[07:33] <bwl> USMarine: cool, that's exactly what I've done.. swap is also separate
[07:33] <Linuturk> macd: assume it completed, and that echo's the correct mode (for debugging on my end)
[07:33] <nunya> timothy_: using add/remove or synaptide will ask you for the root password... it's the same as your username password.
[07:33] <disposition> USMarine: do you have any ideas what is wrong with my partition?
[07:33] <Shapeshifter> Small question: It seems like it's impossible to submit a password with vpnc-connect directly via the command line, but only through the config file. But I'd like to let zenity ask for the pw, so that I can type it and the vpnc-connect takes that string as the pw. Any chance?
[07:34] <bwl> USMarine: but i get a kernel panic on boot, I'll try to do it once again, thanks for your help
[07:34] <bwl> USMarine: I must've missed something else :)
[07:34] <nunya> *synaptic duh
[07:34] <USMarine> disposition from what i read, your partition size alters wether you have partition 2 mounted or not?
[07:34] <disposition> not quite
[07:34] <sistom> Hey,
[07:34] <Linuturk> macd: I think there is something wrong with the if, then, else, fi statement
[07:34] <USMarine> bwl /boot should be ext3
[07:34] <vulcanius> disposition, which filesystem is reported as full, /?
[07:34] <bwl> USMarine: yep, everything is ext3
[07:34] <edefesio> Hi,how can I find out wether I am running an ubuntu 32bit or 64 bits? (feisty) thx
[07:34] <disposition> vulcanius: yes
[07:34] <USMarine> bwl reiserfs ftw
[07:34] <macd> Linuturk, it looks fine to me, I mean thats how it works, if foo then bar else foobar fi
[07:34] <timothy_> synaptic does not work with installing virus software either
[07:35] <vulcanius> disposition, how large did you make your root filesystem when installing?
[07:35] <USMarine> edefesio cat /proc/version
[07:35] <erUSUL> edefesio: uname -m
[07:35] <disposition> but disk usage analysis says that only 3.2gb of it exists when i disable my /media/disponia partition
[07:35] <nightfreak> whats the best way to get a stable lamp installation with an up to date php version (>= 5.2) on dapper?
[07:35] <disposition> 17gb
[07:35] <sistom> MPlayer gives me this error: Fatal Error! Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.
[07:35] <edefesio> erUSUL nop says -generic
[07:35] <sistom> wtf?
[07:35] <disposition> my disponia partition is 74.4gb
[07:35] <edefesio> USMarine lets see..
[07:35] <sistom> and, the default player will play like half a second of the movie and the hang.
[07:35] <bwl> USMarine: heh, i started with ext3 just to get everything to work first :)
[07:35] <ephesius> anyone else have any idea why the terminal or gdm would freeze when I try to login?
[07:36] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  ati video card?
[07:36] <disposition> vulcanius: df -h / reports /dev/sda1              17G   16G   37M 100% /
[07:36] <ephesius> Dr_willis: yes
[07:36] <edefesio> USMarine /proc/version contains the same as uname -a ...
[07:36] <disposition> but disk analysis usage reports that / is only 3.2gb
[07:36] <USMarine> bwl reiserfs owns really
[07:36] <Shapeshifter> Anyone? I'd like to let vpnc-connect call for a pw via a dialog (zenity)
[07:36] <sistom> anyone!??!?
[07:36] <ephesius> Dr_willis: its an ati radeon 7500 mobility, i have a t40, but its worked fine since 5.04
[07:36] <USMarine> edefesio arch
[07:36] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  on my x200m - i have to use the console and 'startx' when using the fglrx driver. not sure what the deal is. I get hangs when i logout, also i recall some hangs when logging in and fglrx with the aceleration enabled.
[07:36] <macd> Linuturk, Im a bit stumped, you could ask in #bash and get a faster answer Im thinking
[07:37] <sistom> MPlayer gives me this error: Fatal Error! Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.
[07:37] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  thats the problem with ati stuff.. it can be.. picky.
[07:37] <vulcanius> disposition, i'd suggest using either filelight or baobab to find out exactly what is using up all that space
[07:37] <disposition> how do i get filelight
[07:37] <bwl> USMarine: i haven't tested it for many years, maybe I should give it a chance.. last time my fs got corrupted, but this was a long time ago
[07:37] <ephesius> Dr_willis: I am just running the open source ati driver, not fglrx
[07:37] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  try the normal ati ati driver, try the vesa driver ,  see what ones work. i guess. i finially got mine working with fglrx (i just cant use gdm/kdm) oddly
[07:38] <edefesio> USMarine arch sais i686 but nothing about the kernel (32 vs 64) nor about the distro
[07:38] <disposition> vulcanius: actually, i'll be able to find that mucho nline. thank you
[07:38] <erUSUL> sistom: and what video_out are you using?
[07:38] <USMarine> edefesio it's 32bits
[07:38] <USMarine> x86_64 would be the output if it was 64bts
[07:38] <nunya> edefesio: uname -r
[07:38] <edefesio> USMarine how would it look like if it were 64bit?
[07:38] <erUSUL> edefesio: i686=32bit
[07:38] <ephesius> Dr_willis, i do use the normal ati driver, im pretty sure it has nothing to do with it because when it freezes up when I try to su to my username from the rescue terminal
[07:38] <nunya> sorry... lagtimes
[07:39] <edefesio> erUSUL ok, thx
[07:39] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  its locking from the CONSOLE also?
[07:39] <ephesius> haha yea
[07:39] <tsukasa> can i report a gnome bug?
[07:39] <USMarine> disposition sorry, i've no idea how to workaround your problem
[07:40] <tsukasa> or at least i think its a bug. dont know why this would be intended behavior if it is
[07:40] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  i guess that can eliminate the video stuff then.
[07:40] <ephesius> Dr_willis: i have no idea whats causing it, i even deleted my username and re-added it
[07:40] <macd> tsukasa, yes at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[07:40] <luca> hi all, 'sensors detect' shows me just one core (after upgrade, using Gutsy), but I have a dual one processore :), can you help me?
[07:41] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  try other users?  try sshing in, and having a log tail going while it crashes.. perhaps
[07:41] <USMarine> luca get a generi kernel
[07:41] <USMarine> luca cat /proc/cpuinfo
[07:41] <USMarine> how many cpus does it show?
[07:41] <jimmacdonald> I asked this last night and have already forgotten it... what is the Gnome equiv of kdsu?
[07:42] <silk_sword> can some one help me on squid configuration ???
[07:42] <ephesius> Dr_willis, i can login as root as well as another user I created, you think i should tail /var/log?
[07:42] <vulcanius> disposition, if your still around, do "df -i -m" for me and let me know what it returns
[07:42] <yeniklasorr> Do you have sometimes freezing on ubuntu like me ?
[07:43] <USMarine> nop
[07:43] <USMarine> uptime of 10 days and no freeze
[07:43] <yeniklasorr> :(
[07:43] <yeniklasorr> could this be from installed packages ?
[07:44] <USMarine> maybe incorrectly configured X
[07:44] <luca> USMarine, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38472/
[07:44] <USMarine> does it freeze without X ?
[07:44] <yeniklasorr> no
[07:44] <yeniklasorr> Only on X
[07:44] <Linuturk> arg
[07:44] <sid> How can I check to see what is in the cron?
[07:44] <Ali_ix> how frequent will update unbuntu repositories on new versions?
[07:44] <USMarine> sid crontab -e
[07:45] <sid> This system is setup so mplayer plays this movie every 10 minutes, but I can't find out where it is starting from.
[07:45] <vulcanius> sid, cat /etc/crontab
[07:45] <magnetron> Ali_ix: as often as needed.
[07:45] <USMarine> luca you're not using and SMP kernel
[07:46] <USMarine> an*
[07:46] <vulcanius> sid or you can use "crontab -u user -l" to list crontabs of each user
[07:46] <magnetron> Ali_ix: during the support period
[07:46] <luca> no, is it bad?
[07:46] <USMarine> only 1 core is being used
[07:46] <sid> thanks a lot vulcanius and USMarine, I appreciate the help.
[07:47] <luca> and, in order to use both, what should I do?
[07:47] <Ali_ix> magnetron: security releases and patches apply fast, but normal, general bug fix releases not :| i cant understand when is "Needed"
[07:47] <USMarine> use an SMP kernel
[07:47] <USMarine> or generic
[07:47] <Ali_ix> magnetron: thanksfor answer
[07:47] <USMarine> i'm not sure
[07:47] <luca> before last upgrade with Gutsy it shows both
[07:47] <luca> mh, ok & thanks
[07:47] <idefix> is it bad when your forward and reverse DNS don't match?

[07:49] <knoopx> hi all
[07:49] <Hoag> Hey. Is there any kind of panel tool that can control rhythmbox? (Similar in function to a desklet, but on a gnomepanel)
[07:49] <sethk> idefixx, yes, it is bad.
[07:50] <knoopx> is there a way out to turn back the "remember password for this session" part of gnome gksudo?
[07:50] <sethk> idefixx, some of the spam email eliminators check for matching forward and reverse DNS
[07:50] <sethk> idefixx, in general it can trigger various types of software searching for malware.
[07:51] <SS2> knoopx: yep, the password is saved in gnome key ring manager

[07:55] <runemaste644> can i change my login screen resolution without editing xorg.conf?
[07:56] <runemaste644> i need it at 1680x1050
[07:56] <jalsot> stefg: yeah, I ready that already
[07:56] <jalsot> I have moved /lib/tls, didn't help
[07:56] <silk_sword> can some one help me on squid configuration ???
[07:56] <jalsot> unfortunately I don't know how to build/prepare that glibc for dapper
[07:56] <silk_sword> can some one help me on squid configuration ???
[07:57] <genii> runemaste644: the ctrl-alt- (numpad -   or numpad +) will cycle thru the ones you have in your xorg.conf   but if it is not in there you won't hit it
[07:57] <Electrosys> Can anyone help me with my compiz desktop effects. I had the cube going, then I did something wrong and now all I can get going is a plane with only two desktops instead of four. Im using fiesty. ?
[07:58] <stefg> jalsot: i'd guess it's less pain to simply use a newer ubuntu version.... Feisty is quite good, and 8.04 will be the next LTS then
[07:58] <runemaste644> would i need numlock on?

[07:58] <runemaste644> i use a laptop keyboard
[07:58] <HumanHeart> hello, can anybody herlp me please?
[07:58] <runemaste644> and will that set ti to that permanetely?
[07:59] <genii> runemaste644: If on laptop with that embedded numlock keyboard, yes, needs to be enabled for the - and + normally on that
[07:59] <jalsot> stefg: aahhh, I cannot use anything than LTS - that's a policy here - neither 8.04 right after release [need to wait for some months before upgrading] 
[07:59] <runemaste644> ill try that
[07:59] <genii> runemaste644: Whatever you leave the resolution on when you logout returns that way
[07:59] <macogw> the - and + are usually not part of the laptop's num keyboard
[07:59] <macogw> they're usually next to 0, aren't they?
[07:59] <macogw> mine are
[08:00] <Electrosys> Thanks Evanlac.
[08:01] <sethk> macogw, it varies somewhat.  don't forget that there is a num lock key that changes some keys
[08:01] <runemaste644> it didnt quite work
[08:01] <runemaste644> it was pretty close
[08:01] <presto> does anyone know why when I press ctrl+h i get a new window instead of showing my hidden files?
[08:02] <macogw> sethk: there's usually a + and - both on the row of regular numbers and with the numpad that sprawls over the letters
[08:02] <macogw> presto: dvorak?
[08:02] <genii> macogw: On a regular 105 keyboard only the ones to right of numpad work ... on laptop if they only have 1 - and 1 + at end of number row maybe those will work, unless numpad-lock seting on the laptop also makes another - and +
[08:02] <runemaste644> presto: what file browser do you use?
[08:02] <runemaste644> it did switch the res
[08:02] <sethk> macogw, yes, that's true.  But some of the non-english keyboards are missing certain keys (or rather the keys are used for other characters)
[08:03] <runemaste644> but the right one wasnt there
[08:03] <macogw> genii: why would only the numpad + and - work?
[08:03] <sethk> macogw, so on some foreign laptop keyboards you may need to use num lock to get +
[08:03] <Shapeshifter> Small question: It seems like it's impossible to submit a password with vpnc-connect directly via the command line, but only through the config file. But I'd like to let zenity ask for the pw, so that I can type it and the vpnc-connect takes that string as the pw. Any chance?
[08:03] <genii> macogw: Not sure but thats how it is on all the ones i have
[08:03] <presto> runemaster: nautilis
[08:03] <macogw> Shapeshifter: why does it seem impossible? works fine for me
[08:03] <sethk> genii, macogw, it's perfectly possible to configure something so numpad + works and normal + does not.  The commands to scroll through X resolutions work this way on a standard keyboard.
[08:04] <runemaste644> it should show hidden files
[08:04] <macogw> sethk: weird
[08:04] <macogw> sethk: make that "weird and silly"
[08:04] <runemaste644> it works for me
[08:04] <sethk> macogw, I agree.  I wasn't saying that it's a good idea, only that the behavior does exist.
[08:04] <genii> runemaste644: Then if your video card and monitor can both do this other resolution, you will still need to add it to your xorg.conf. But at least that is a one-time change to make, it will be there afterwards
[08:04] <presto> yeah it should but its not i can still go to the menu and check it and it works but ctrl+h doesnt work right
[08:05] <macogw> Shapeshifter: the pw isnt echoed back to you or shown with **** but it does get entered
[08:05] <fc4perl588> is there a hotkey to pull down the Applications menu? i don't have a mouse hooked up and i'm in fiesty x server
[08:06] <runemaste644> well i pretty much want to plain set up a login screen resolution

[08:08] <kerik> hey guys
[08:08] <bruenig> !ot | kerik
[08:08] <ubotu> kerik: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:09] <kerik> can you tell me how to actually run a program through Wine?
[08:09] <Kopfgeldjaeger> how can i replace one 2 newlines (if they are "together") in a text file? \n\n\n should become \n, and \n\n should become \n
[08:09] <Factory> kerik: check #wine
[08:09] <bruenig> kerik, wine whatever.exe
[08:09] <Factory> keirk: THe short answer is wine filename
[08:09] <Shapeshifter> Question: How can I insert a text string into a textfile at a certain point (not just append it) and how can I delete text at a certain point?
[08:09] <runemaste644> right click a windows executable kerik and select open with wine windows emulator
[08:09] <Factory> Shapeshifter: open the text file and edit it.
[08:09] <Shapeshifter> or at least how can I delete text at the end of a text file?
[08:09] <bruenig> Shapeshifter, do you have something specific?
[08:10] <Shapeshifter> yeah, I mean by a command line command like cat
[08:10] <kerik> runemaste644, in which dir do I find it?
[08:10] <Factory> "nano textfile.text"
[08:10] <kerik> runemaste644, thanks for the info btw :)
[08:10] <runemaste644> where is the executable?
[08:10] <Shapeshifter> no, I mean by one single command that sends the text into the file without any other applications
[08:10] <teclis> hi, I can't login into my gnome desktop, only failsafe works. How can I fix this issue?
[08:10] <runemaste644> the .exe file
[08:10] <kerik> runemaste644, it's in desktop
[08:10] <runemaste644> right click it
[08:10] <Shapeshifter> like cat. but cat always appends to the end of the file, doesnt it?
[08:10] <kerik> done
[08:11] <Shapeshifter> and how to delete text at the end of a file with a single command (without editing by hand)
[08:11] <kerik> runemaste644, done....should I add a command string?
[08:11] <runemaste644> to what?
[08:11] <bruenig> Shapeshifter, the easiest way is just to do sed 's/string//' -i file
[08:12] <kerik> runemaste644, I right clicked..now what?
[08:12] <runemaste644> select openwith wine windows emulator
[08:12] <USMarine> Shapeshifter echo " " > filename
[08:12] <kerik> can't choose that
[08:12] <Electrosys> Kopfqeldjaeger: I think you can use either Awk and make and Awk program or use possibley a script or I know c or C++ could do it.
[08:12] <runemaste644> y?
[08:12] <bruenig> Shapeshifter, as far as inserting an entire line, for instance say inserting a line after line 5, you would do head -n5 textfile > newtextfile && echo "your new line" >> newtextfile && tail -n+7 textfile >>newtextfile
[08:12] <Electrosys> Kopfqeldjaeger: or do search and replace.
[08:12] <kerik> runemaste644, it aint there
[08:12] <kerik> runemaste644, in the list
[08:12] <runemaste644> do you have wine?
[08:13] <Shapeshifter> bruenig: I'll google on that, thx. Just to be more specific I'd like to add a ~20 digit line at the end of a file, save it then execute a command and then erase that line in that file
[08:13] <kerik> runemaste644, I ought to...
[08:13] <runemaste644> if it is not installed then of course you cant open it
[08:13] <runemaste644> it is in the ubuntu repos
[08:13] <bruenig> Shapeshifter, if you would give your question in less abstract terms, it could be explained better. Abstract terms are ok if you know more about what you are talking about, but it is uncertain exactly what you mean.
[08:13] <kerik> runemaste644, kinda knew that one...oh ok will try to check
[08:14] <kerik> its intalled
[08:14] <Electrosys> Where can I find a beginners guid to install a windows emulator into ubuntu fiesty.
[08:14] <silk_sword> what si fire starter
[08:14] <bruenig> !virtualization
[08:14] <silk_sword> what is firestarter
[08:14] <ubotu> There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications

[08:14] <ubotu> silk_sword: 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).

[08:30] <disposition> no, look at it. total fs capacity is 16.5gb
[08:30] <magnetron> kane77: unlikely
[08:30] <disposition> but / reports only having 3.2gb used
[08:30] <runemaste644> download something
[08:30] <runemaste644> anything
[08:31] <disposition> vulcanius: du -h / rep[orts 87gb
[08:31] <disposition> which is including all the space used on my other two partitions
[08:31] <kane77> magnetron, isn't there an app for that? because formating doesn't erase the data physicaly..

[08:34] <RxDx> is 512 DDR 400 sufficient to run WindowsXP on VirtualBox or VMWare?
[08:34] <vulcanius> the one that you say is causing / to fill up

[08:40] <PriceChild> Shapeshifter, well all depends what text it is your wanting to remove, but its more involved than just a simple command
[08:40] <xOjka> nice
[08:40] <Pici> Shapeshifter: #bash might be able to help you come up with a script to do that.
[08:40] <Shapeshifter> praet: any good sources? google doesn't go to well eith "how to delete text file line" or something like that :|

[08:41] <praet> Shapeshifter: do you want to do it on the command line or run a script with a file as an argument?
[08:42] <travisbickle> magnetron: Should i try reinstalling firefox? I use swiftfox but i don't know to uninstall em in linux.
[08:42] <virtuelv> hm, after removing sun-java6, I can no longer run Java
[08:42] <virtuelv> (I did install java5-*
[08:42] <itnet7> disposition, the only explanation is that you must have installed ubuntu in the available space, some times. The only suggestion I have for you is to have someone download the standalone gparted and delete the other partition.. Unless you chose to make the remaining space your swap
[08:42] <Shapeshifter> praet: It's part of a bash script. I just need one line at the end of the file erased.
[08:42] <itnet7> atleast that I can think of
[08:42] <runemaste644> sorry my router timed out
[08:42] <Shapeshifter> praet: it will always be the same line "n"
[08:43] <itnet7> then extend the little partition... I re-read my post and I sound like yoda sorry about that
[08:43] <runemaste644> disposition: what did you do when it said it filled up?
[08:43] <magnetron> travisbickle: i would recommend you trying the epiphany-browser. it uses the same rendering engine as firefox, but is lighter and faster. i tried swiftfox, but couldn't notice any difference
[08:44] <travisbickle> magnetron: can I watch youtube vids in that too? How would i go about installing all the extensions/plugins? I had em automatically installed before?
[08:44] <JDStone> when does Gutsy go final?
[08:45] <joakim-> 17 oct or something like that
[08:45] <joakim-> 18 maybe

[08:45] <magnetron> travisbickle: epiphany supports firefox plugins, but not extensions. it has some own, though
[08:45] <JDStone> rsk: alright, thanks

[08:46] <konam> someone knows how to change the openoffice splash? I've tried several methods but nothing works
[08:46] <konam> :/
[08:46] <travisbickle> magnetron: Yeah but do i have to manually install everything or would it find and use the same plugins firefox does?
[08:46] <neverblue> and do I need to remove mplayer addon?
[08:46] <magnetron> travisbickle: it uses the same
[08:47] <magnetron> travisbickle: install it with "add/remove applications"

[09:12] <kahrytan> variant, hide it?
[09:12] <Evanlec> John_Priest, its in the preferences somewhere
[09:12] <Evanlec> i think
[09:12] <itnet7> konam, you don't have to specifically chmod it to 755 .. you could do chmod +w intro.mbp
[09:12] <itnet7> konam, you don't have to specifically chmod it to 755 .. you could do chmod +w intro.bmp I mean
[09:12] <John_Priest> ohhh found it
[09:12] <John_Priest> its under alerts
[09:12] <John_Priest> thanks :-p
[09:12] <itnet7> konam, chmod -w intro.bmp I mean
[09:13] <itnet7> to put it back
[09:13] <konam> itnet7 but before or after edit it?
[09:13] <itnet7> disregard the i mean
[09:13] <kahrytan> John_Priest, right click on tray icon and hide it too
[09:13] <neverblue> currently I am using the embedded mplayer in FF, if I wanted to use totem, what would I need to install?
[09:13] <phoenix24> all the i-nodes allocated by my filesystem are depleted.. How can I create more i-nodes ?

[09:14] <itnet7> konam, change the permissions then edit it, you might get away with leaving it alone, but I always restore the permissions personally
[09:14] <vulcanius> phoenix24, http://docsrv.sco.com:507/en/OSAdminG/fsD.noInodes.html
[09:14] <vulcanius> phoenix24, i'd suggest removing files before modifying the filesystem
[09:15] <mweichert> magnetron: my problem is only on ubuntu
[09:15] <neverblue> im sure it is :)
[09:15] <konam> itnet7 well, i just know that with the permissions that my user have is not enought to make it work, i will put the permissions back to 444
[09:15] <konam> that must do the work
[09:16] <John_Priest> ubuntu, and problems?
[09:16] <John_Priest> lies, all lies

[09:23] <scraliontis> es sind mehr deutsch in #ubuntu-de
[09:23] <scraliontis> als hier. hier sprechen wir nur english
[09:24] <scraliontis> i said he should go to ubuntu-de
[09:24] <monkeyBox> Ok, I have no idea why, but NetworkManager clears out my /etc/resolv.conf when I connect to my VPN.
[09:25] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: as your on a vpn - so your settings won't be usable
[09:25] <Kaelten-clone> will it be bad for me to use a gusty package with feisty?
[09:25] <ikonia_> yes
[09:25] <ikonia_> very
[09:25] <scraliontis> the packages dont match up
[09:25] <Kaelten> :(
[09:25] <nextone> how can i connect to my wireless network router?
[09:25] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  what do you mean, my settings won't be usable.  I can opt to not use my VPN's DNS...
[09:25] <riotkittie> ugh. i should have sucked it up and retried compiling a kernel.
[09:25] <Kaelten> problem is the lighttpd package for feisty has a security issue
[09:26] <fiXXXerMet> Why does my ssh session keep timing out?
[09:26] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: if you don't use your vpns dns - you shouldn't be able (potentially) to use dns
[09:26] <vsbuffalo> hey all, I recently switched to wmii - but can't seem to find open office on my fs. Where do these live?
[09:26] <ikonia_> fiXXXerMet: common cause = flakey net OR a router time out config at the other end
[09:26] <ikonia_> vsbuffalo: what is wmii
[09:26] <fiXXXerMet> ikonia_: What I mean is I can connect but when I leave it sitting there, it times out
[09:26] <vsbuffalo> ikonia_: a window manager
[09:27] <Pici> vsbuffalo: where it usually does, /usr/bin/openoffice
[09:27] <vsbuffalo> without the gnome smeny
[09:27] <vsbuffalo> *menu
[09:27] <ikonia_> fiXXXerMet: thats most likey a network device forcing an idle timeout
[09:27] <fiXXXerMet> not an sshd setting?
[09:27] <ikonia_> yes, it can be
[09:27] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  Why not?  I've certainly done it before..   All the VPN does is set up a ppp interface and allow me to connect to the remote network via that interface.  Setting up DNS is completely optional
[09:27] <ikonia_> but thats not he most common
[09:27] <Kaelten> so is the only real chance I have of getting a newer lighttpd version in feisty is to handroll it?
[09:27] <monkeyBox> I should still be able use my same /etc/resolv.conf  to resolve domain names
[09:28] <vsbuffalo> Pici that is in my $PATH - is there a reason why I cant get it started
[09:28] <anonylulz> hello I'm trying to install something with package installer but i get "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: wine"
[09:28] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: to put is simple, I'll give you an easy example. If your address is 10.11.216.1 and you vpn in and get a 192.168.0.1 address, your 192.168.0.1 address won't be able to see dns servers on the 10.11.216.0 network
[09:28] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: hence why I said "potentially"
[09:29] <ikonia_> anonylulz: which package installer and which package and where did you get the package
[09:29] <bluefoxy> I am using vmware server now, and it says the bridged ethernet at /dev/vmnet0 can't come up because the bridged ethernet interface is down.  How do I fix?
[09:29] <anonylulz> it's wine-doors and I got it at the wine-doors site
[09:29] <anonylulz> the package installer is the one that came with ubuntu
[09:29] <anonylulz> i'm running live cd also
[09:29] <ikonia_> anonylulz: which one, there are a few. Did you download a .deb package from another site ?
[09:30] <lazly> bb

[09:30] <noldrys_> hey gys, can some help me, i need an tool to run keyboard commands by a script
[09:30] <vulcanius> bernier, you can "dmesg | grep scsi" in most cases
[09:30] <anonylulz> i downloaded the .deb from wine-doors.org
[09:31] <ikonia_> anonylulz: then I suggest you didn't do it
[09:31] <ikonia_> oops
[09:31] <Pelo> bernier, open a terminal and type  lsusb , see if it is listed
[09:31] <ikonia_> anonylulz: I suggest you dont use it
[09:31] <anonylulz> why

[09:31] <bernier> I believe this is it

[09:32] <Pelo> Toran,  care to sum it up for us
[09:33] <ikonia_> toran you disk is on the way out
[09:33] <Pelo> bernier,  the  FS is not important at this point,  what is the devtree of the device
[09:33] <Toran> ikonia_: yeah, except it's a month old and it's been doing this since I bought it
[09:33] <Toran> It's not off-brand, either
[09:33] <bernier> /dev/sdb
[09:33] <ikonia_> Toran: your disk is faulty

[09:34] <Pelo> anonylulz, cd Desktop and then what lastnode said
[09:34] <bernier> Pelo now a new problem , I can't delete what's on it :P how do I get the permission?
[09:34] <murkyMurk> anonylulz: sudo dpkg --install /home/<you>/Desktop/<package.deb>
[09:35] <lastnode> anonylulz: please note what ikonia_ said, i came in here halfway.
[09:35] <anonylulz> hm
[09:35] <Pelo> bernier,   sudo chmod 777  /mount/point
[09:35] <murkyMurk> anonylulz: yes, note previous warnings
[09:35] <lastnode> anonylulz: installing a package with unmet dependencies wont let you run the package.
[09:36] <murkyMurk> anonylulz: what lastnode said
[09:36] <bernier> Pelo , done, but can't delete yet
[09:36] <anonylulz> hm
[09:36] <NeoGeo64> is the new ubuntu available yet
[09:36] <jm_> Who are using tribe 5?
[09:36] <NeoGeo64> has it been leaked
[09:36] <Pelo> bernier,  right click the icon and check the owner
[09:36] <anonylulz> so if i install it i won't be able to run it?
[09:36] <rsk> lol... leaked
[09:36] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: what are you talking about
[09:36] <rsk> :D
[09:37] <NeoGeo64> i am looking for the new version fo ubuntu
[09:37] <lastnode> anonylulz: most probably not.
[09:37] <ikonia_> jm_: most people in #ubuntu+1 are
[09:37] <Pelo> NeoGeo64, oct 18
[09:37] <rsk> NeoGeo64: wait a month
[09:37] <lastnode> NeoGeo64: ubuntu feisty fawn? (7.04)
[09:37] <NeoGeo64> oh
[09:37] <NeoGeo64> no the next one
[09:37] <lastnode> oh sorry :) yes, what rsk and Pelo said
[09:37] <bernier> Pelo, Owner: root
[09:37] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: if you're unable to read a date of a website, your probably not in a position to test the pre-release dev builds
[09:37] <NeoGeo64> will desktop-effects work this time.
[09:37] <lastnode> Gutsy will be out on the 18th of October. If you want to try betas, there are several 'tribes' out these days. try #ubuntu+1 for more info
[09:38] <bernier> Pelo, I mounted it in /mnt/USB just to let you know
[09:38] <Pelo> bernier, try   sudo chows username:username /mnt/USB
[09:38] <lastnode> NeoGeo64: that's the word on the street. better ask in #ubuntu+1 though ;-)
[09:38] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: depends, and gusty support is in ubuntu+1
[09:38] <twelve_gaugeRage> NeoGeo64>try reading the forums on info about gutsy and its features
[09:38] <rsk> NeoGeo64: if your hardware supports it
[09:38] <NeoGeo64> I remember desktop-effects in 7.04 would work but all the window buttons were gone
[09:38] <magnetron> lastnode, NeoGeo64: the tribe releases are not even beta stage, they are alpha
[09:38] <NeoGeo64> and you couldnt move windows around
[09:38] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: do you use nvida cards ?
[09:38] <bernier> Pelo: chows , command not found
[09:38] <lastnode> NeoGeo64: what magnetron said. i stand corrected.
[09:38] <murkyMurk> anyone have experience of MCP55 sata controller bug in feisty fawn?
[09:38] <Pelo> NeoGeo64,  that was just a question of decorator
[09:39] <NeoGeo64> ikonia_: fx5200 w/ 256mb ram
[09:39] <Pelo> bernier, try   sudo chown username:username /mnt/USB  sorry
[09:39] <magnetron> NeoGeo64: that issue was fixable
[09:39] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: that was a bug easy fixable
[09:39] <ikonia_> magnetron: apologies, you where ahead of me
[09:39] <bernier> chown: changing ownership of `/mnt/USB': Operation not permitted
[09:39] <NeoGeo64> oh i was told a few months ago in here to "deal with it, its beta"
[09:39] <bernier> pelo
[09:39] <monkeyBox> Ok, so all I'm sayin' is, why should NetworkManager completely overwrite the resolv.conf file? wouldn't the _ideal_ be to append the dns servers to the existing ones?
[09:40] <Pelo> bernier, I'm not overly familiar with this command,  did you type sudo first ?
[09:40] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: no, as you'd get time outs waiting for the others to fail to respond
[09:40] <bernier> Pelo, yes
[09:40] <runemaste644> ok the people at #xorg arent very helpful
[09:40] <NeoGeo64> runemaste644: tell me about it..
[09:40] <Pelo> bernier, try with the /dev/sdb1  addy instead of the mount point
[09:40] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  The first DNS servers should still respond, if they're public DNS servers (ie, opendns)
[09:40] <bernier> Pelo, I dunno why ,I cannot even do "su" the password won't work
[09:40] <ikonia_> runemaste644: they are fine with me
[09:40] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: its not sequential
[09:41] <murkyMurk> and me...xorg readme is great
[09:41] <runemaste644> my login screen res is messed up
[09:41] <NeoGeo64> i came in there asking a question and no one helped me.
[09:41] <ikonia_> murkyMurk: I suspect you have hit the nail there
[09:41] <bernier> pelo, chown: cannot access `/dev/sdb1': No such file or directory
[09:41] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: its perhaps how you ask questions.
[09:41] <Phlogi> where is the wpa_supplicant config file? I'm trying to connect to a wpa2 network
[09:41] <Pelo> bernier, caplocks ?   in anycase we know your password works you  successfully mounted
[09:41] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: for future reference
[09:41] <monkeyBox> ikonia_: regardless,   I don't have ALL traffic routed through my vpn,  so existing DNS servers still work
[09:41] <fiXXXerMet> My sshd_config file has TCPKeepAlive yes so I don't know why ssh is timing out when I sit idlely?
[09:41] <Pelo> bernier, are you sure that this is a vfat drive and not ntfs ?
[09:41] <monkeyBox> I'm only routing a specific IP range
[09:41] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: how do you have selected traffic through your vpn ? a vpn is normally all or nothing
[09:41] <runemaste644> can anyone in here help me?
[09:42] <wabid> im not getting any kind of warning when my battery is low
[09:42] <bernier> Pelo, yea i'm sure , and my password works for sudo but not su
[09:42] <wabid> how can i enable that message
[09:42] <ikonia_> fiXXXerMet: dodging net connection or a network device hardware config
[09:42] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  not with linux:  you simply use iptables to route your traffic as you see fit through ppp0
[09:42] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  even firestarter has support for that
[09:42] <ompaul> !sudo | bernier
[09:42] <ubotu> bernier: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:42] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: ask and we'll see
[09:42] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: ok - so thats not a vpn
[09:42] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:   how so?
[09:42] <runemaste644> I need to fix my login screen resolution
[09:42] <anonylulz> how do i go into sudo in the terminal so i won't have to type sudo all the time
[09:42] <runemaste644> it is wrong
[09:42] <monkeyBox> I'm routing part of my traffic _through_ the VPN?
[09:42] <Phlogi> the network manager hangs when I try to connect to a wpa2 network, what shall I do?
[09:42] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: because your machine is still on your origional network
[09:42] <Pelo> bernier, I'm out of ideas , right click , check hte permissions again ,  see what access your user has
[09:43] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:    umm.. it's on  _both_
[09:43] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: that'll be a vga boot parameter
[09:43] <monkeyBox> so, yes, it _is_ a VPN
[09:43] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: and thats the point
[09:43] <runemaste644> it should be 1680x1050@55Hz
[09:43] <monkeyBox> I route selected traffic _through_ the VPN
[09:43] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: however I'll not debate this with you and take the channel off topic
[09:43] <runemaste644> _test
[09:43] <runemaste644> _test_
[09:43] <Pelo> runemaste644, are you trying to get banned again ?
[09:44] <nextone> am getting this error when i type this in the terminal "sudo dpkg --configure -a" | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38484/plain/ |
[09:44] <monkeyBox> ugh, this isn't off topic, it's about NetworkManager
[09:44] <runemaste644> its the underline thing
[09:44] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: no, but mean debating network vpn "standards" is
[09:44] <disposition> would anyone know why when i mount an ntfs drive (after adding it to fstab) that it doesn't appear on my desktop like it used to?
[09:44] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: so set that as the only resolution in the xorg.conf and that's what you'll see
[09:44] <runemaste644> where?
[09:45] <monkeyBox> ikonia_: still relevant to the conversation,  and what I'm saying has nothing to do w/ standards.  You just think the way microsoft does it is the standard, apparently...
[09:45] <runemaste644> thats the problem
[09:45] <ubuB0nk3rs> hi people, quick question.. has anyone in here experimented with BlueLink?
[09:45] <bernier> Pelo , ok thank you
[09:45] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: I don't think the way "microsoft" does, hence why I'm not debating it with you
[09:45] <genii> runemaste644: Maybe look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2361367#post2361367 and set your virtual resolution to something different thats bearable
[09:45] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: Section Screen, subsection Display
[09:46] <bernier> pelo, how do I delete a file in console?
[09:46] <rathel> How would one remove X and Gnome?
[09:46] <ikonia_> rathel: I advice you don't
[09:46] <Jaymac> I've accidentally made my filesystem read only (I guess from screwing around with /etc/fstab)
[09:46] <Pelo> bernier,   sudo rm filename
[09:46] <ikonia_> rathel: but you'd remove it fro the package panager
[09:46] <Jaymac> so it won't let me undo my changes - anything i can do?
[09:46] <wabid> how can i change the % at which my battery is considered critically low?
[09:46] <ikonia_> Jaymac: boot from the live cd - mount it read-write and fix it
[09:46] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  well, apparently you had no idea that you could route selected traffic through a VPN,  so I guess you're not the right person to talk to about this anyways
[09:46] <Jaymac> ok thanks.. will do
[09:46] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: thats not VPN - thats routing
[09:46] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: Depth 16, Modes "1600x800" or whatever you wanted
[09:47] <Pelo> Jaymac, boot the live cd, and edit your fstab from there
[09:47] <runemaste644> 1680x1050
[09:47] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  it's routing  _through_ a vpn!
[09:47] <rathel> ikonia_, Well I've installed the live cd on a computer, I've been using through ssh and I was hopeing I could save some space by removing those.
[09:47] <ikonia_> yes, I see what your getting at
[09:47] <monkeyBox> The vpn is setup via an interface
[09:47] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: make the Modes line read as Modes "1680x1050"
[09:47] <bernier> Pelo, I logged as root using "su" and could delete the file via console
[09:47] <nextone>  pici:i get this error "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38484/plain/" when i type "dpkg --configure -a" what i do.?
[09:47] <ikonia_> rathel: I don't believe its worth the effort
[09:48] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: your monitor does support that resol right?
[09:48] <runemaste644> yed
[09:48] <runemaste644> it also says in that section
[09:48] <Pelo> bernier, congrats
[09:48] <runemaste644> virtual 1920 1200
[09:48] <bernier> Pelo, but I still can't add nothing to it :P
[09:48] <rathel> ikonia_, Okay than, I'll just wait until gutsy is released and reinstall with the alternate cd than.
[09:48] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  So, you're saying that, even though I'm still connecting to my office's network via a pptp tunnel,  that just because I only have certain traffic going through that tunnel means it's not a VPN?   I'm sorry, that just doesn't make sense to me.
[09:49] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: if you delete every other display subsection and every other mode then xorg will default to your 1680 one
[09:49] <Pelo> bernier, what does  it say for your user access in rightclick /properties/permission ?
[09:49] <runemaste644> 1680x1050 is in modes
[09:49] <Pelo> GNine, what did you do ?
[09:49] <bernier> Pelo: you are not the owner so you can't change the permission
[09:49] <nextone> any1 know what this is "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38484/plain/"
[09:50] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: no no, your right, I missunderstood what you where diong. I thought you had a desktop setting up a vpn tunnel to a remote network
[09:50] <ikonia_> I didn't realise you where setting up a router
[09:50] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: then makes sure it's the only option there...delete any 800x600 or 1024x768 etc and xorg will have to use that one
[09:50] <GNine> situation:  after removing a few program packages ... i ended up killing my user session. now i log in and ... i just get a blank ubuntu coffee colored desktop
[09:50] <Pelo> bernier, alt+f2 ,  gksu nautilus ,  browse to /media/   find the USB folder  right click,  and have fun
[09:50] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: and I suspect, thats what network manager things your doing, hence it changing resolv.conf
[09:50] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:   umm, I'm not setting up a router :-p    I still don't think you get what I'm saying
[09:51] <Pelo> GNine, do you still havwe access to your /home folder witth your very own data in it ?
[09:51] <CoCaInE> guys i got modem<- Router on ubuntu <- 3 pc       i want these 3 pcs work with "outside" IP i got, but i dont know how to configure it
[09:51] <runemaste644> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38485/    <---thats my xorg.conf
[09:51] <GNine> yes
[09:51] <genii> runemaste644: So change the "virtual 1920 1200"    to whatever you want gdm to use, if 1680x1050 then put "virtual 1680 1050"
[09:51] <bernier> Pelo: thank you
[09:51] <Jaymac> sorry to be an idiot, but how do I mount my installation from a live cd?
[09:51] <ikonia_> CoCaInE: you want network masqurading through iptables
[09:51] <Pelo> CoCaInE, try asking in #networking maybe
[09:51] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:   let's say,  my local net is 192.168.0.*  and the servers I need to access are XXX.XXX.XXX.0/32
[09:51] <runemaste644> if it messes up,
[09:52] <runemaste644> nvm
[09:52] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  I simply setup iptables so that all requests locally to XXX.XXX.XXX.0/32 go through ppp0 instead of eth0
[09:52] <CoCaInE> ikonia_ yes, but i have no idea how to do it
[09:52] <Pelo> Jaymac,  it should get automounted,   so just browse your way to the correct file and edit it ,   the hdd should get mounted to your desktop
[09:52] <Jaymac> yeah... i found it, but it won't let me save...
[09:52] <ikonia_> CoCaInE: there are guides on help.ubuntu.com
[09:52] <zeus_> how to allow remote desktop connection using terminal?
[09:52] <alcoholic> !pastebin
[09:52] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:52] <runemaste644> i saved it
[09:52] <monkeyBox> ppp0 being my VPN connection
[09:52] <Jaymac> You do not have the permissions to save...
[09:52] <runemaste644> Here i go!
[09:52] <Pelo> Jaymac, open it with sudo
[09:53] <naxa> hi
[09:53] <zeus_> how to allow remote desktop connection using terminal?
[09:53] <naxa> how can I set auto-login in kubuntu?
[09:53] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: lol...you're using 640x480 resolution
[09:53] <anonylulz> how do i rename a file in the terminal
[09:53] <ikonia_> anonylulz: mv
[09:53] <Pelo> naxa, you should ask in #kubuntu ,they know where the dialog boxes are
[09:53] <danny>  /msg nickserv link hermanthegerman danny
[09:54] <anonylulz> thx
[09:54] <naxa> Pelo: oh so this is specific! Thanks!
[09:54] <nextone> zeus_:click on system then click on administration then click on login window
[09:54] <monkeyBox> ikonia_: see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/37239    it appears others are having the same problem as me.  If usepeerdns is uncheked, it should not wipe out resolv.conf
[09:54] <zeus_> how to allow remote desktop connection using TERMINAL?
[09:54] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: now that I see what your doing I agree
[09:54] <Jaymac> ok managed to save it, rebooting and crossing fingers :)
[09:54] <gurkburk> I have realised that I got a pretty annoying problem, and im not exactly sure how to fix it wither. My discs keep switching device-tag's, its been messing with me trying to setup mounting properly and ive just realised that this is the problem..
[09:55] <GNine> i remember uninstalling a package called gnome-session or something... that was linked to some other packages
[09:55] <gurkburk> for example. disk 1 can be SDB and I reboot, and its suddenly SDC...
[09:55] <Pelo> GNine,  you kniow it helps when you adress the person you are atlking to ,  if you still have your data and stuff in your /home flder  you just deleted the file that contains your settings for which ever prog you deleted, just redo your own theme and stuff and you'll be fine, your data is safe
[09:56] <gurkburk> im guessing its because im not just running simple ide-disks.. I got 1 scsi (external card) and 3 sata. Still damn annoying though, that they dont "stay put" :-p
[09:56] <Pelo> GNine, if you want to make sure you have all the default install progs on your comp just type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop  that will restore everything you need
[09:57] <GNine> Pelo, yes, i did that one.  however, thing is .. am not too fluent in command line.
[09:57] <Jaymac> ok i'm back in... i'll leave that file alone from now on.. thanks for the help :)
[09:57] <soc_> hi
[09:57] <soc_> i have a problem!
[09:57] <Pelo> GNine,  that's all you need to restore what you deleted that was needed, the rest is you restoreing your settings manualy, can'T be avoided I 'm afraid
[09:57] <soc_> i added gaim to my startup session
[09:57] <HardDrive> soc_: don't we all
[09:57] <soc_> but that doesn't work ...
[09:58] <riotkittie> modprobe [module]  and not getting errors should leave one safe to assume said module has been loaded, yes?
[09:58] <soc_> it sometimes takes maybe 5 minutes before it starts ...
[09:58] <murkyMurk> soc_: starts or logs on to msn?
[09:58] <Pelo> soc_, open all the progs you want open at startup,  close all others,   goto the session manager,   on the 3rd tab, click save session ,  close and restart
[09:58] <GNine> Pelo, any wiki's you might throw my way about that ?
[09:58] <Pelo> GNine, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[09:59] <Pelo> GNine,  by restoring your settings I just mean put back your own theme and background and other stuff like that
[10:00] <GNine> Pelo, how do i call synaptic from terminal
[10:00] <D4N`> dunno
[10:00] <Pelo> GNine, gksu synaptic
[10:00] <GNine> :)
[10:00] <Pelo> GNine,  kind of pointless if you have gui just use the menu
[10:00] <soc_> pelo, ok i'll try that ,,,
[10:00] <pc40> during installing ssh .. it created RSA and DSA keys "Creating SSH2 RSA key; this may take some time ..." ..... HOw can I repeat this ?
[10:01] <GNine> i dont have access to my menu... like i said .. am on this gnome safe mode type deal
[10:01] <bill__> dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server   ?
[10:02] <zeus_> how to allow remote desktop connection using terminal?
[10:02] <murkyMurk> pc40: read the ubuntu ssh howto VERY CAREFULLY
[10:02] <Pelo> GNine, oh, that 's not what yousaid originaly, I just thought you lost your settings,  don'T know what you'll need to do then I've never seen gui in safe mode
[10:02] <Pelo> later folks
[10:02] <gnutron> zeus - you might try ssh and x11 forwarding via terminal.
[10:03] <pc40> murkyMurk: thanks
[10:03] <murkyMurk> zeus_: ? do you mean both you at the terminal and the other and independently remote from a 3rd box running krdc?
[10:03] <riotkittie> sudo reboot
[10:03] <riotkittie> oops
[10:03] <runemaste644> it didnt work
[10:03] <runemaste644> it did nothing
[10:03] <aantn> !getdeb
[10:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about getdeb - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:03] <ogsmokie> hello, i have a poblem with my mouse, even when i start my pc my mouse is not realy found all buttons (the buttons over and under the mousewheel mapped to the mousewheel, the horn button have not an event , but sometimes i have an event for all my buttons, i have the logitech Mx 1000
[10:03] <aantn> is there a getdeb source repo?
[10:04] <lImItaO> yes
[10:04] <zeus_> no I want to change System/Administration setting from the terminal because I don't have access to GUI
[10:04] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: your xorg looked pretty messed up...use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to take you back to a fresh one
[10:04] <aantn> lImItaO: what is it?
[10:04] <lImItaO> let me see
[10:04] <lImItaO> one moment
[10:04] <aantn> lImItaO: thanks
[10:04] <aantn> I'm on ppc so I can't just use the regular packages
[10:04] <runemaste644> ill need to add aargblx visuals again
[10:05] <so1> daaamn
[10:05] <runemaste644> or whatever
[10:05] <so1> that can't be true ...
[10:05] <runemaste644> what will the res default to?
[10:05] <zeus_> gnutron: I want to enable remote dekstop log in but I can't do it because I don't have graphic  enviroment
[10:05] <Dimitar> when i start my ubuntu panels are frozed
[10:05] <so1> i see gaim in gnome-settings-monitor for about 4 minutes without doing anything ...
[10:05] <murkyMurk> zeus_: ahh....if you haven't got access to the GUI, what desktop are you going to log in to?
[10:05] <lImItaO> aantn: deb http://ubuntu.org.ua/ getdeb/
[10:05] <Esteth> how do i reinstate the default window manager when compiz is active?
[10:06] <so1> and it runs twice btw ...
[10:06] <zeus_> murkyMurk: a remote one
[10:06] <lImItaO> aantn: then sudo aptitude update update
[10:06] <richiefrich> hi  cirkit
[10:06] <lImItaO> ;)
[10:06] <aantn> lImItaO: you mean deb-src http://ubuntu.org.ua/ getdeb/ ?
[10:06] <cirkit> Good evening ladies and gentlemen, and thank you for allowing me to spend another wonderful afternoon with you all here in #ubuntu
[10:06] <murkyMurk> zeus_: you need a GUI desktop running on the remote box before anyone can log on to that 'desktop'
[10:06] <riotkittie> is there no way to enable wlan card support in the kernel outside of compiling one? oh woe, oh woe.
[10:06] <bruenig> !ot | cirkit
[10:06] <ubotu> cirkit: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:06] <lImItaO> just add this line to your source list: deb http://ubuntu.org.ua/ getdeb/
[10:07] <cirkit> The last time I was in this channel some Ubuntu user informed me that if you have the +v status on your nick, then you are somehow the owner, is this true?
[10:07] <soho> is it possible to have nautilus audio preview with wma-files?
[10:07] <soho> is it possible to have nautilus audio preview with wma-files?
[10:07] <zeus_> murkyMurk: yes, the pc is at another place and I only have ssh access to it. and I want to enable remote desktop login with ssh
[10:07] <albreche> hi , when making an uml diagram which ressource contains the Entity stereotype  ?
[10:07] <rathel> How do you make something startup in another desktop, like I want evolution to start up on Desktop #6.
[10:07] <lastnode> cirkit: no. +o means operator +v means voiced. for more info on IRC, you can come to #ubuntu-offtopic, since that is not a ubuntu specific support question.
[10:08] <aantn> lImItaO: I'm on ppc and I can't use their binary packages
[10:08] <Red-Sox> Hello, I have Gnome installed and I
[10:08] <murkyMurk> zeus_: ahhh.....is the remote desktop a KDE or Gnome?
[10:08] <zeus_> murkyMurk: gnome
[10:08] <Red-Sox> Hello, I have Gnome installed and I'd like to install KDE and have my gnome apps in gnome and my kde apps in kde
[10:08] <Red-Sox> Not in both
[10:08] <runemaste644> if i dpkg-reconfigure x what will the resolution default to?
[10:08] <cirkit> lastnode, thank you for your input.
[10:08] <ikonia_> runemaste644: what ever you set it to
[10:08] <lastnode> no probs
[10:09] <lastnode> runemaste644: you will get a list of choices, mostly likely.
[10:09] <murkyMurk> zeus_: and are you using vnc or xvnc or what as the remote desktop view/server
[10:09] <WaltzingAlong> Red-Sox: by which you really just mean showing up on the menu rigth?
[10:09] <runemaste644> wait
[10:09] <runemaste644> ive done it before
[10:09] <Red-Sox> WaltzingAlong: Exactly
[10:09] <gnutron> zeus- enable x11 forwarding in the file  /etc/ssh/ssh_config, then read up on ssh and 'startx'
[10:09] <runemaste644> and thats what messed it up
[10:10] <zeus_> murkyMurk: I tried Xvnc but it didn't work. so I just want to enalbe remote desktop login from administration manu which I don't have access cus I am in terminal
[10:10] <ikonia_> runemaste644: what exactly is the problem
[10:10] <WaltzingAlong> Red-Sox: i do not know of a way to do that other than manually altering the menu entries to match what you want
[10:10] <richiefrich> zeus_: you can just do ssh -Y
[10:11] <soc> wth?
[10:11] <Red-Sox> WaltzingAlong: okay
[10:11] <murkyMurk> zeus_: okays....KDE's krdc app is simplest...just apt-get it on to the remote box and then edit ~./kde/share/config/krfbrc
[10:11] <soc> it just took 3 minutes idling to start gaim
[10:11] <soc> from auto start
[10:11] <murkyMurk> zeus_: it doesn't require installling all of kde...just a few libs
[10:11] <WaltzingAlong> zeus_: nomachine's nx or freenx
[10:11] <runemaste644> my login screen resolution is messed up
[10:12] <ikonia_> runemaste644: are you using an nvidia dor ati graphics card
[10:12] <runemaste644> nvidia
[10:12] <ikonia_> runemaste644: what model ?
[10:12] <runemaste644> Geforce Go 7300
[10:12] <ikonia_> runemaste644: and your running Ubuntu Fesity ?
[10:12] <murkyMurk> zeus_: whoops on the remote box put krfb as well as krdc
[10:12] <CHIMAERA> um anybody here mind assistin a noob with gfx install
[10:12] <runemaste644> Yes
[10:13] <ikonia_> runemaste644: have you install the nvidia-glx package ?
[10:13] <ikonia_> CHIMAERA: just ask the question
[10:13] <WaltzingAlong> zeus_: if you want to access the running X display, then you may want x11vnc
[10:13] <runemaste644> let me check
[10:13] <yezior> hi there !
[10:13] <yezior> need a fast answer
[10:13] <ikonia_> then ask the question
[10:13] <CHIMAERA> i got a emachine m5312.... with a ati 320M
[10:13] <CHIMAERA> envy dont work with it..
[10:13] <murkyMurk> yezior: no..fast enough?
[10:13] <yezior> i have a laptop - HP Pavilion dv600
[10:13] <dsdfgs> c.elsitio.com 6667
[10:13] <CHIMAERA> and i need direct 3d
[10:13] <runemaste644> nvidia-glx is installed
[10:14] <yezior> dv6000
[10:14] <neverblue> #1: Envy
[10:14] <yezior> and i have problems with my sound
[10:14] <neverblue> your starting off on the wrong foot, thats for sure
[10:14] <ikonia_> runemaste644: ok - so you need to do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" then select the "nvidia" driver and the screen resolution you want and then restart
[10:14] <zeus_> murkyMurk: then how to logint? can I login using vncviewer?
[10:14] <yezior> it's like a fatboy slim concert
[10:14] <boyam1> !enter | yezior
[10:14] <ubotu> yezior: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:15] <yezior> ok, will do
[10:15] <CHIMAERA> ive read all i could...... but from what ive seen... this is a very tricky vid card
[10:15] <runemaste644> dpkg-reconfiguring xserver-xorg is what got me into this mess in the first place!!!!!
[10:15] <murkyMurk> zeus_: once you have correctly setup the krfbrc file on the remote box then use krdc from your local box with the IP of the remote and you're in
[10:15] <ikonia_> runemaste644: did you read the rest of what I said ?
[10:15] <runemaste644> yes
[10:15] <CHIMAERA> im running ubuntu ultimate
[10:15] <cirkit> richiefrich, pardon me ... do you know if it is possible to use the bourne again shell aka BASH in Ubuntu? It doesn't appear to have any kind of Terminal.
[10:15] <ikonia_> runemaste644: then do it
[10:15] <bruenig> CHIMAERA, this is #ubuntu
[10:15] <soc> it takes minutes to start gaim with auto startup
[10:15] <runemaste644> do i only have to select those things
[10:15] <ikonia_> CHIMAERA: ubuntu ultimate is not an ubuntu product. Its not supported here
[10:15] <CHIMAERA> ...... its all based on the same thing is it not
[10:15] <soc> that's worse than starting it every time manually
[10:15] <CHIMAERA> ohz
[10:16] <neverblue> cirkit, alt-F2 gnome-terminal
[10:16] <runemaste644> and it wont ask me about anything else?
[10:16] <richiefrich> cirkit: well y ou can use whatever shell you want
[10:16] <ikonia_> runemaste644: answer the questions asked, but make sure you select the "nvidia" driver
[10:16] <richiefrich> cirkit: if you have it installed
[10:16] <CHIMAERA> where would i go then
[10:16] <nextone> how do i know if i am remote connect to my computer?
[10:16] <lastnode> cirkit: of course there is.
[10:16] <ikonia_> CHIMAERA: read their website
[10:16] <CHIMAERA> it auto maticaly connected to this
[10:16] <runemaste644> i have the nvidia driver selected
[10:16] <richiefrich> cirkit: chsh
[10:16] <ikonia_> CHIMAERA:thats part of the problem, they make a product and don't support it
[10:16] <CHIMAERA> this was the default server and channel..
[10:16] <bruenig> CHIMAERA, I doubt they have much support
[10:16] <runemaste644> already
[10:16] <CHIMAERA> hmmmmz
[10:16] <bruenig> which is fine if you can deal with it
[10:16] <ikonia_> runemaste644: run throught he configuration options
[10:17] <CHIMAERA> well i shall have to dig round some more i guess...
[10:17] <richiefrich> cirkit: you must have gnome-terminal
[10:17] <bruenig> I had dreamlinux installed for a while and all their support was in brazilian, so if you can deal without support, feel free
[10:17] <richiefrich> cirkit: unless you install kbuntu
[10:17] <cirkit> richiefrich, I have installed Ubuntu Linux. Although I cannot seem to find kcontrol.
[10:17] <Zeithawke> How was dream linux?
[10:17] <yezior> so here how it is: i'm using HP Pavilion dv6000. 1st of all - i have a huuuge problem with sound. It's like a FatBoySlim... Looped :/ But hear me now... I have a USB wireless Logitech mouse, and when I move it constantly the sound goes just fine... What can be the problem ?
[10:17] <Zeithawke> :|
[10:18] <CHIMAERA> ive already got a bunch of things workin via the ubuntu forum...
[10:18] <naxa> how can I start photoshop CS2 and CorelDraw 13 on Linux? :D (I mean, with wine;)
[10:18] <CHIMAERA> im sure there is a way to look thro that and figure it out
[10:18] <richiefrich> cirkit: then you have gnome
[10:18] <naxa> (perhaps VMware? I don't know it! If its better pls help)
[10:18] <bruenig> CHIMAERA, why would you install it to begin with
[10:18] <richiefrich> cirkit: no kcontrol there
[10:18] <rathel> How do you make something startup in another desktop, like I want evolution to start up on Desktop #6.
[10:18] <murkyMurk> naxa: apparently the best way is just to use gimp instead
[10:19] <CHIMAERA> cuz with my usage of it on my other rig... it was awsome
[10:19] <naxa> No, no, Photoshop is a must and CorelDRAW 13 is not Inkspace, either.
[10:19] <naxa> I like those but now we want to work, we don't have time to learn anything else.
[10:19] <charly17201> old dos and windows person here. still learning linux.... i'm used to having to defrag the hard drive in win and dos. is that necessary in ubuntu/linux?
[10:19] <ikonia_> CHIMAERA: why are you telling us this, this is a support channel for the ubuntu products
[10:19] <ikonia_> charly17201: not really
[10:19] <murkyMurk> charly17201: not really no
[10:19] <bruenig> ubuntu ultimate is on the same line as ubuntu christian edition both being horrific jokes
[10:20] <CHIMAERA> ......
[10:20] <aantn> GO UBUNTU SE! :-D

[10:31] <reep> runemaste644: If you're trying to set up Xorg for your monitor you generally just need to figure out the horizontal and vertical refresh rates
[10:32] <GNine> check your sources.. october 18th is the final official certified gutsy to meet you release
[10:32] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: start the fantastic nvidia settings manger GUI for you to explore your monitor/video card
[10:32] <reep> runemaste644: you'll hafto check the manual for the monitor, or google the modelnumber to find those numbers
[10:32] <scoutmaster1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38489/
[10:33] <runemaste644> yaaaaay! GUI

[10:59] <umop-apisdn> cosmodad: so i can't get updated? do i have to go get the latest version, or is there a path without reinstalling this box?
[10:59] <itnet7> adac can you see the dialogue window by the channels?
[10:59] <slicks_mage> sn0 im sure there is but i only want one way lol
[11:00] <sn0> slicks_mage virtualbox is pretty decent :)
[11:00] <murkyMurk> junkeR: then the default browser isn't set
[11:00] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: what's the package in question?
[11:00] <slicks_mage> well see if this works
[11:00] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: the first thing you should do is look for a backport.
[11:00] <slashzul> what conferencing software with CAMS and audio work with ubuntu?
[11:00] <slicks_mage> still installing
[11:00] <phoenix24> all the i-nodes allocated by my filesystem are depleted.. How can I create more i-nodes ?
[11:00] <sn0> slashzul wengophone is a skype clone
[11:00] <junkeR> how do I set the default as Opera then?
[11:00] <junkeR> I went to preferred apps in Ubuntu and set it as Opera
[11:00] <Scunizi> slashzul, I think ekiga does that but not sure about the conferencing
[11:01] <gustavo> regarding chroot, when i have to add a module to the service, where do i install it? /chroot/service/usr/local/service or /usr/local/service  ?
[11:01] <murkyMurk> junkeR: BROWSER =/path/to/opera
[11:01] <umop-apisdn> cosmodad: the one i'm attempting to install? fwbuilder (available at http://www.fwbuilder.org )
[11:01] <junkeR> I enter that in the command line? or where do I enter that in?
[11:01] <umop-apisdn> cosmodad: it's breaking when i try to install the required libfwbuilder package
[11:02] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: are you using Feisty?
[11:02] <slicks_mage> installing the source with deb is it suppose to take this long?
[11:02] <umop-apisdn> cosmodad: no, i'm using 6.06 server, figured the LTS would be a good option
[11:02] <murkyMurk> junkeR: yes, on a command line just BROWSER = /path/to/opera you can get the opera path by using which opera
[11:02] <slicks_mage> *virtualbox
[11:02] <umop-apisdn> cosmodad: would you recommend i reload clean from the 7.04 server iso?
[11:03] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: there's fwbuilder 2.0.9 in dapper, you should perfectly be able to use that.
[11:03] <sn0> slicks_mage you can install the binary, after adding to your sources.lst and reloading/updating the list like any other package
[11:03] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: With Feisty all you seem to get in terms of fwbuilder is a tiny upgrade.
[11:03] <junkeR> it says BROWSER command not found
[11:03] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=fwbuilder&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all
[11:03] <slicks_mage> sn0 can u start over step by step plz sry but im a bit confused
[11:04] <umop-apisdn> cosmodad: omg... ok, how do i get it to find/install that?
[11:04] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: just enable the universe repository in your server and install fwbuilder
[11:04] <Scunizi> umop-apisdn, LTS is fine. You'll have a new LTS version in 8 mths or so.. I've heard
[11:04] <sn0> slicks_mage sure, tell us what you have done so far
[11:04] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: you know how to enable repositories and install software in Ubuntu?
[11:04] <umop-apisdn> cosmodad: please forgive my ignorance, but how do i enable the universe repository? i'm running without a GUI here, and i'm a bit lost
[11:04] <slicks_mage> so far i downloaded the source deb file and its installing but its takin a long time
[11:04] <the9a3eedi> http://www.google.ca/
[11:04] <murkyMurk> junkeR:  sorry NO SPACE BETWEEN BROWSER and = sigbn
[11:05] <sn0> slicks_mage why are you downloading the source?
[11:05] <slicks_mage> because some1 recommended it and im trying anything and everything
[11:05] <the9a3eedi> Question: is tribe 5 the last testing release that will be out before the final stable release?
[11:05] <PriceChild> !gutsy | the9a3eedi
[11:05] <ubotu> the9a3eedi: 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
[11:05] <nexttwo> reep:how can i connect to my wireless network?
[11:05] <murkyMurk> junkeR: and then use echo $BROWSER to check....you may have to log out to get all apps to recognise the new default seting
[11:05] <cosmodad> !repository | umop-apisdn
[11:05] <ubotu> umop-apisdn: 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
[11:06] <sn0> slicks_mage lets try it this way, remove the download you already have done, then gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.lst
[11:06] <slicks_mage> ok
[11:06] <umop-apisdn> cosmodad: thanks, now i have a direction to flail in ;)
[11:06] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: you need to follow the command-line approach
[11:06] <junkeR> ok, do you know which path I should enter in for Opera?
[11:06] <slicks_mage> hold on a sec
[11:06] <Scunizi> umop-apisdn, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list then just delete the "#" mark in front of multiverse and universe binary and sources.
[11:06] <sn0> slicks_mage this will open the file for editing, at the end of the list verify that "deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian your_ubuntu_release_here  non-free" is stored in the file, then we can continue.
[11:07] <junkeR> this is listed as the directory Opera directory /home/(my username)/.opera/
[11:07] <murkyMurk> junkeR: okay, just type which opera and it will give you the path......   which opera
[11:07] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: there you go
[11:07] <Scunizi> umop-apisdn, CTRL+O  (that's oh) writes the file and CRTL+q quits.  Then sudo apt-get update
[11:07] <cosmodad> umop-apisdn: if you follow Scunizi short-cut without reading the wiki entry, don't forget to "sudo apt-get update" as well.
[11:08] <murkyMurk> junkeR: it will probably be /usr/bin/opera
[11:08] <junkeR> okay, it now works.  Thanks a lot!
[11:08] <murkyMurk> junkeR: sweeeeeet  CLI env magic
[11:09] <slicks_mage> sn0 i have a problem the file is empty
[11:09] <umop-apisdn> Scunizi: wonderfully concise instructions, thank you. cosmodad: thank you, as well.
[11:09] <sn0> slicks_mage my apologies, the file is /etc/apt/sources.list not /etc/apt/sources.lst like i said
[11:09] <Scunizi> umop-apisdn, cosmodad if you feel more comfortable on a gui you can install one on the server.  However for some things it's just easier to use the command line. Things you change in the server are typically protected anyway.. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop (lightweight) or kubuntu-desktop.
[11:09] <slicks_mage> ok
[11:10] <umop-apisdn> Scunizi: i would rather have just the console on the server, for disk space and memory constraints
[11:10] <alcoholic> i have made a little script in bash which loops through an array of users and add them
[11:10] <slicks_mage>  GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[11:10] <slicks_mage> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[11:10] <umop-apisdn> Scunizi: but thanks for the info, anyway - i may end up having to :P
[11:10] <slicks_mage> wont let me open it
[11:10] <dawk> is there another way of apt-get autoremove?
[11:11] <Scunizi> umop-apisdn, just a thought..:)  I have a gui on my headless server.. It only loads when I want via ssh.
[11:11] <slicks_mage> dawk: try apt-get remove
[11:11] <sn0> slicks_mage what did you type exactly?
[11:11] <cosmodad> dawk: if you mean removing dependent packages, use aptitude to install and remove
[11:11] <slicks_mage> sn0 1sec ill copy it
[11:11] <nexttwo> how i know if my ubuntu is going to crash?
[11:11] <umop-apisdn> Scunizi: i'm running xming on my windows box, with an exported display
[11:11] <cosmodad> alcoholic: remarkable effort for someone drunk ;)
[11:11] <umop-apisdn> Scunizi: i'm only a partial idiot, i'm just having a monday today
[11:11] <umop-apisdn> :)
[11:11] <slicks_mage> sn0 gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:11] <murkyMurk> alcoholic: well doen you RHCE you
[11:12] <dawk> cosmodad: so it actually autoremoves in aptitude?
[11:12] <Scunizi> umop-apisdn, so you're familiar!.. another good resource for the server is #ubuntu-server
[11:12] <darlok> How do I get Gutsy?  I don't see an obvious way from Ubuntu.com.
[11:12] <mirak> I have a .Wav file with glitches, and conversion to flac fails. Do you have any idea how to repair it ?
[11:12] <cosmodad> dawk: I'm not sure what you mean by autoremove
[11:12] <sn0> slicks_mage are you working from a terminal login? try sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.lst
[11:12] <alcoholic> Enter new UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: Sorry, passwords do not match
[11:12] <umop-apisdn> Scunizi: ah, thanks. another "doh!" moment
[11:13] <slicks_mage> ok wut now sn0
[11:13] <alcoholic> im doing passwd $userpass how ever im not able to give input to re-type password any suggestion how i can do that
[11:13] <alcoholic> ?
[11:13] <murkyMurk> alcoholic: type more carefully...passwd is beyond reproach
[11:13] <slicks_mage> stilll came up as empty tho
[11:13] <Scunizi> umop-apisdn, np.. the learning curve can be fast and steep, but infinitely enjoyable!
[11:13] <ephesius> darlok: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/tribe5
[11:13] <murkyMurk> alcoholic: ahh sorry, just read.....
[11:13] <darlok> ephesius: Thank you.
[11:13] <slicks_mage> sn0 want me2 try to manually find the file and edit it?
[11:13] <sn0> slicks_mage it should not be an empty file , strange
[11:13] <sn0> sure slicks_mage , in /etc/apt/
[11:13] <slicks_mage> ok 1sec
[11:13] <cosmodad> alcoholic: pasting the script with pastebin would probably prove useful
[11:14] <darlok> ephesius: If I install that, it will continue installing updates even when the final version is released, correct?  So I won't need to reinstall it next month?
[11:14] <alcoholic> ok
[11:14] <speps> hey guys what about firefox 64 and java?????
[11:14] <speps> i can't get it work
[11:14] <ephesius> darlok: i assume so, i'm actually downloading it right now, i don't see any reason why it wouldn't
[11:14] <sn0> darlok using gutsy is not recommended unless you enjoy fixing things, at the moment :) it will be released next month
[11:14] <PriceChild> !gutsy
[11:14] <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
[11:15] <alcoholic> !pastebin
[11:15] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:15] <darlok> sn0: I was just kind of hoping that it would be relatively stable since it's less than a month from the "stable
[11:15] <darlok> "stable" release.
[11:15] <slicks_mage> ok sn0 now wut do i add
[11:15] <nexttwo> how many program can i run before my ubuntu crashes?
[11:15] <nexttwo> ?
[11:15] <darlok> sn0: I need to do a complete reinstall of Windows/Ubuntu anyway, so I figured now would be a good time.
[11:15] <rsk> nexttwo: try it ;:)
[11:15] <darlok> nexttwo: Depends... how much ram you got? ;)
[11:15] <nexttwo> 1g
[11:15] <slicks_mage> lol
[11:16] <sn0> darlok while personally i haven't ran into any serious headaches, while i cannot speak for anyone else the idea of using alpha/pre beta versions is not recommended unless you know enough to hopefully figure out if something breaks :)
[11:16] <speps> hey guys can someone who use Ubuntu 64 bit help me...???I want to get java on Firefox 64!Please help me...Thanks
[11:16] <nexttwo> darlok:how can i backup my ubuntu
[11:16] <sn0> slicks_mage did you add the line i mentioned? please tell me what you added
[11:16] <darlok> nexttwo: Well, the easy and accurate answer would actually be: A whole lot more than Windows ;)
[11:16] <slicks_mage> sn0 nothing yet i was asking wut i should add
[11:16] <darlok> !backup
[11:16] <ubotu> 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
[11:16] <sn0> slicks_mage are you using fiesty 7.04 ?
[11:16] <jvm123> hello. maybe someone can help me: i've an allnet all0282a wlan card and used it with ubuntu dapper before, i manually compiled madwifi drivers for this purpose. now i installed ubuntu feisty fawn and it recognized the wlan card automatically. "iwlist ath0 scan" correctly recognizes all networks. i want to connect to an ad-hoc network with the wlan card, but "iwconfig ath0 mode Ad-Hoc" leads to "SET failed on device ath0 ; Invalid argument". The
[11:16] <jvm123> graphical network manager seems not to be able to handle ad-hoc-networks at all. ubuntu says im using the "Atheros Hardware Access Layer". is this access layer not able to use ad-hoc?
[11:16] <slicks_mage> dapper
[11:16] <nexttwo> darlok:can you just tell me how i can backup my ubuntu?
[11:17] <nexttwo> ?
[11:17] <nexttwo> ?
[11:17] <alcoholic> cosmodad http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38493/
[11:17] <darlok> nexttwo: I just did... you have options.  Choose the one that works best for you.
[11:17] <sn0> slicks_mage ok add (on a new line) deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian dapper non-free
[11:17] <AshDragonSca> Can anyone help me with ndiswrapper? It is locking up my computer anytime it tries to access the wlan card (card is Airnet AWD154 running in Feisty)
[11:17] <nexttwo> darlok:i want a backup that would recover my system from boot if it crashes.
[11:18] <sn0> then save/quit the file, and type sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install virtualbox . then you should be done
[11:18] <slicks_mage> ok added and saved now wut sn0
[11:18] <sn0> slicks_mage read above
[11:18] <jvm123> AshDragonSca: i tried ndiswrapper for a few months, but it never worked fine. i bought some better wlan card then...
[11:19] <Scunizi> nexttwo partimage
[11:19] <slicks_mage> i did read and i added the new line now wut
[11:19] <cosmodad> alcoholic: you wanna re-type the password asked for in useradd automatically within the script, right?
[11:19] <sn0> slicks_mage then save/quit the file, and type sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install virtualbox . then you should be done
[11:20] <nexttwo> Scunizi:how do i do that?
[11:20] <alcoholic> cosmodad exactly
[11:20] <cosmodad> alcoholic: if you do that using adduser instead of useradd and sudo, it should work
[11:20] <Scunizi> nexttwo, partimage is a live cd that will allow you to backup partitions.. check out http://www.partimage.org/Main_Page
[11:21] <cosmodad> alcoholic: adduser is generally more suited for Ubuntu, you might need to figure out the details
[11:21] <alcoholic> cosmodad in useradd i will still have to retype pass
[11:21] <alcoholic> isnt it
[11:21] <Scunizi> nexttwo,  there's also the "system rescue cd" that has partimage and many other useful tools.
[11:22] <Davy_Jones> how can i turn on javascript in firefox?
[11:22] <ikonia> preferences
[11:22] <cosmodad> alcoholic: definitely with useradd. But I think Linux puts a lot of effort into preventing you from caching/piping the password.
[11:22] <slicks_mage> sn0 tyvm it works now
[11:22] <sn0> slicks_mage your welcome :-)
[11:23] <sn0> happy vm'n
[11:23] <PriceChild> Davy_Jones, how did you turn it off?
[11:23] <alcoholic> :\
[11:23] <alcoholic> so there is no way
[11:23] <alcoholic> of doing it ?
[11:23] <Davy_Jones> PriceChild: i didn't.. i ran firefox as root and youtube tells me i either don't have flashplayer or have javascript turned off
[11:23] <cosmodad> alcoholic: re-thinking about it, I can't think of a way right now. Though I suppose there is one.
[11:23] <Davy_Jones> and i know i have flashplayer
[11:23] <PriceChild> Davy_Jones, well don't run firefox as root
[11:24] <Davy_Jones> and just know, i went to about:config, and it says javascript is enabled
[11:24] <alcoholic> there should be i a way o/w i have to add 5400 users manually
[11:24] <alcoholic> :\
[11:24] <Davy_Jones> PriceChild: but i want to
[11:24] <PriceChild> Davy_Jones, why?!?!
[11:24] <cosmodad> alcoholic: people in ##linux will most likely be able to help you out on that one.
[11:24] <Davy_Jones> PriceChild: i just want to
[11:24] <Davy_Jones> that's not the issue now
[11:24] <PriceChild> Davy_Jones, no.. it _is_ an issue... why?
[11:24] <Scunizi> Davy_Jones, I'm guessing here, but I think FF turns of Java if run by root because it too dangerous.
[11:25] <sn0> !root
[11:25] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[11:25] <jvm123> java != javascript
[11:25] <sn0> hmm
[11:25] <tuch> hi
[11:26] <Davy_Jones> Scunizi: it says in about:config    javascript.enabled, true
[11:26] <nexttwo> what dont u guys just say the place to download it
[11:26] <slicks_mage> sn0 how would i start windows 2000 server from the cd to work with virtualbox?
[11:26] <nexttwo> u guys keep on giveing books of pages and pages not a reader
[11:26] <PriceChild> Davy_Jones, do you know what root is?
[11:27] <sn0> slicks_mage that isn't really a ubuntu question so much, but you would install win2k the same way you would any os, from cd usually
[11:27] <Scunizi> Davy_Jones, yes that may be true. but there may be an internal function that doesn't mess with about:config when run by root.
[11:27] <cosmodad> alcoholic: did you try useradd's "-p" switch?
[11:27] <Davy_Jones> PriceChild: i know what root is, i know it's dangerous to run stuff as root, i know you want to call me stupid for doing so.. can i do this?
[11:27] <slicks_mage> i meant is there  a way to run it within virtualbox?
[11:27] <Davy_Jones> Scunizi: probably
[11:27] <PriceChild> Davy_Jones, what are you really trying to achieve by running root?
[11:27] <LjL> nexttwo: what do you want a download place for?
[11:27] <sn0> sorry for my typing today
[11:27] <PriceChild> Davy_Jones, lets fix that problem rather than this one.
[11:28] <Davy_Jones> PriceChild: i don't want to fix that problem
[11:28] <darlok> Davy_Jones: I'm worried simply because if you understood how dangerous root was, you'd know how to run applications as root. lol
[11:28] <cosmodad> alcoholic: another, most likely working approach would be to call adduser with --disable-password and re-set it after the user is added with "passwd" in the script
[11:28] <Davy_Jones> if i want to fix that problem, i would tell you
[11:28] <PriceChild> Davy_Jones, then I'm afraid we can't help you here.
[11:28] <sn0> slicks_mage yes, virtualbox lets you create a "new" installation, then you give the installation its properties, hd size, memory, cd image and so on, then start it
[11:28] <Davy_Jones> PriceChild: ok, thanks
[11:28] <nexttwo> LjL:i want 2 backup my ubuntu
[11:28] <slicks_mage> ok ty

[11:28] <LjL> nexttwo: uhm, why do you think you need to manually go to somewhere and download stuff, for that?
[11:28] <nexttwo> stop doing that

[11:29] <MrPink> lo
[11:29] <jmillionator> !cloning
[11:29] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[11:29] <cosmodad> alcoholic: I think that last method should be preferred as adduser handles $HOME creation too.
[11:29] <darlok> nexttwo: If you don't read about how to do something, you run the risk of screwing everything up.... then you'd come back and blame us.  No thanks.

[11:31] <darlok> nexttwo: I made the same mistakes when I first started with Ubuntu... expected everyone else to just tell me how to do stuff...  when things broke (and they did often), I'd get pissed at the Ubuntu community.  Read. Learn. Do.   In that order.
[11:31] <LjL> nexttwo, there are several available.

[11:31] <SpudDogg> river, you'll need to mount the iso, then have dvd::rip read that.  check out www.ubuntuguide.org for how to mount an image
[11:31] <PriceChild> !firewall | stonebear
[11:31] <ubotu> stonebear: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[11:31] <Ginn> how do you disable the icons in gnome menu?
[11:32] <darlok> WaltzingAlong: He doesn't appear to have that kind of experience, though... so installing through reps is a better option for him.
[11:32] <stonebear> Thank you
[11:32] <nexttwo> darlok:i was a win user i used it for 6 years, on my own, now ubuntu that would take me another 6 years to master it
[11:32] <LjL> WaltzingAlong: certainly, but for that matter, you can jump from skyscrapers, with it still not being a good idea
[11:32] <river> SpudDogg: ok, I thought there was a way to do it without mounting the image
[11:32] <__ZiGgy__> can somone direct me to ubuntu effecs
[11:32] <stefg> !effects
[11:32] <ubotu> For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[11:32] <kilonux> cosmodad:  so it is something one does in a shell, and not at all write into fstab?
[11:32] <SpudDogg> river, there may be, but i always just mounted them.  good luck
[11:32] <ohsoferrety> Electrosys: 127.0.0.1
[11:32] <river> thx
[11:32] <darlok> nexttwo: Well, that's up to you.  It took me 6 months to finally get enough knowledge about Ubuntu to NOT crash it constantly.
[11:33] <darlok> nexttwo: But we gave you several options on how to create/restore backups.  We can't choose one for you.
[11:33] <Electrosys> When you install ubuntu your not the root user by default are you?
[11:33] <cosmodad> kilonux: correct. The fstab line would be a little bit longer.
[11:33] <nexttwo> darlok:i know this much that everything can be done in command form. that is the answer i was looking from u guys, not pages of fake words...
[11:33] <stefg> !root | Electrosys
[11:33] <PriceChild> Electrosys, no, you are part of the "admin" group that is allowed to use the command "sudo"
[11:33] <ubotu> Electrosys: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

[11:33] <murkyMurk> kilonux: fstab is a permanent record of what should be mounted (and how) every boot. the mount command is for temp mounts
[11:34] <stefg> !fstab
[11:34] <ubotu> 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
[11:34] <darlok> nexttwo: It's not that simple.  Can't help you if you refuse to do any research yourself.
[11:34] <kilonux> So the tuto is a little blurry  OK

[11:35] <nexttwo> darlok:ok i understand -a
[11:35] <murkyMurk> kilonux: okay...just remember not to mess with the fstab unless you want it to be permanent
[11:35] <LjL> nexttwo: the *first* link in !backup, in the *first* paragraph, starts giving you the relevant command lines.
[11:36] <darlok> LjL: I doubt he ever went to ANY of those links.
[11:36] <nexttwo> !backup
[11:36] <ubotu> 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

[11:36] <d90> hello, I`ve got problem with hibernating, I cant hibernate, when I try to hibernate screensaver appears and few seconds after gnome desktop returns and in bottom right corner and message pop up with HAL error

[11:37] <choward_> Anyone here using Gutsy?
[11:37] <LjL> darlok: tar
[11:38] <slicks_mag1> sn0 i got this error FATAL: Could not read from the boot medium! System halted.
[11:38] <kilonux> I am,  btw  what is the save command in nano?

[11:38] <LjL> !gutsy > choward_    (choward_, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:38] <WaltzingAlong> kilonux: ctrl+o
[11:38] <Chris55> kilonux: CTRL+X then say Yes to saving
[11:38] <AnnabelLee> ..
[11:38] <sn0> slicks_mag1  you need to tell it to boot from cd :)
[11:38] <choward_> Good luck with Gutsy!! My upgrade tanked :(
[11:38] <AnnabelLee> This has got to be the fullest chat room I've ever been in. Ever.
[11:38] <GBenemy> hello
[11:38] <slicks_mag1> ok u mean when its starting up right?
[11:38] <kilonux> o or X
[11:38] <h1st0> choward_: gusty is not stable yet
[11:38] <murkyMurk> kilonux: use 'CTRL W' to write out the file
[11:39] <darlok> choward_: Ah... well, that would be my running luck with Ubuntu. :)  But I need to reinstall everything anyway, so I figured I may as well just do a clean install of Gutsy.
[11:39] <h1st0> darlok: gusty isn't even close to being stable
[11:39] <GBenemy> How do I uninstall Ubuntu? I tried booting with the live cd, then using gparted to just delete the partition. but then my computer would't boot :( it just said "Grub Loading Failed" and then switched off :(
[11:39] <choward_> darlok That would be best.
[11:39] <nexttwo> !thank you
[11:39] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[11:39] <darlok> h1st0: Really?  And it's less than a month from the "stable" release?
[11:39] <kilonux> I dont wont to write it out, just to save and exit
[11:39] <h1st0> GBenemy: you need to re write the mbr
[11:39] <nexttwo> :-D
[11:39] <choward_> Well I complain but the only thing that doesnt work is compiz
[11:39] <h1st0> GBenemy: what are you trying to install?
[11:39] <stefg> darlok: won't recommend that currently.... things break, because update pace before beta release went up ....
[11:39] <GBenemy> h1st0: what's that?
[11:39] <h1st0> darlok: yes I would stick with fiesty for now.
[11:40] <LjL> nexttwo, by the way...
[11:40] <murkyMurk> kilonux: what am i saying? CTRL O of course sorry for confudion
[11:40] <LjL> !rootirc | nexttwo
[11:40] <ubotu> nexttwo: It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad - use !sudo instead
[11:40] <GBenemy> I'm not trying to install anything, i'm trying to uninstall ubuntu
[11:40] <darlok> Hmm... Ubuntu upgrades have ALWAYS failed for me, forcing a fresh install.  Since I need to do a fresh install now, I'm going to have to do it again in less than a month.
[11:40] <kilonux> thanks a LOT

[11:40] <Scunizi> darlok, do you set things up with a seperate /home partition?
[11:40] <__ZiGgy__> Fucken Eh

[11:40] <LjL> __ZiGgy__: /join #ubuntu-effects
[11:40] <slicks_mag1> sn0 i got the same issue one sec let me explore the program2see if i missed something
[11:40] <WaltzingAlong> GBenemy: sudo aptitude purge ubuntu-desktop
[11:41] <stefg> darlok: you might not even have a running system after dist-upgrade
[11:41] <__ZiGgy__> ty ljl
[11:41] <murkyMurk> kilonux: O for out in nano but w for write in vi...jees :-)_
[11:41] <web_knows> are you guys using backports?
[11:41] <Scunizi> __ZiGgy__, /join #ubuntu-effects
[11:41] <darlok> Scunizi: Yep.  But that's the reason I need a fresh install.
[11:41] <web_knows> not sure how safe it is, regarding stability
[11:41] <darlok> Scunizi: As a gamer, I didn't give my Windows partition enough disc space :(
[11:41] <vjekoslav_> hi all, im complete noob and first time in my life using linux, so i need step-by-step help with qtsim instalation
[11:41] <h1st0> darlok: nah you won't have to do a fresh install.  If you are reinstalling its a good idea to keep a seperate home that way you don't lose any of your data.
[11:41] <sn0> slicks_mag1 you did give the properties of the virtual machine, details for either the ISO or the cdrom drive with the setup cd?
[11:41] <stefg> darlok: wait a week before touching gutsy... it's abuilding site right now
[11:41] <Scunizi> darlok, ah... ok.. no problems here... 1/2 terra over 3 drives.
[11:41] <h1st0> GBenemy: Is there any other OS on the drive like Windows or something?
[11:41] <darlok> Scunizi: I hate you...
[11:42] <Scunizi> darlok, scrounge for people getting rid of their old machines.. salvage salvage salvage
[11:42] <chibitk> hey all
[11:42] <vjekoslav_> hi all, im complete noob and first time in my life using linux, so i need step-by-step help with qtsim instalation... Would someone be so kind to guide me trough instalation?
[11:42] <h1st0> darlok: hard drives are cheap now a days
[11:42] <darlok> h1st0: Yeah, but I'm so broke now days ;)
[11:42] <h1st0> darlok: and no need to reinstall you could just resize the partitions
[11:42] <LjL> vjekoslav_:  sudo apt-get install build-essential    mkdir qtsim    svn co https://speedsim.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/speedsim/QtSim/trunk qtsim    cd *    ./configure   and see which libraries are missing
[11:42] <slicks_mag1> ok i see the problem sn0 i needed the iso file not the burned cd
[11:42] <slicks_mag1> ty for the help
[11:43] <d90> vjekoslav: From Srbia
[11:43] <d90> ?
[11:43] <sn0> nps slicks_mag1
[11:43] <vjekoslav_> no Cro :)
[11:43] <Pelo> vjekoslav_, start by looking in menu > system > admin > synaptic , unless you are using kubuntu then ask in #kubuntu
[11:43] <LjL> vjekoslav_: also  svn co https://speedsim.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/speedsim/SpeedKernel SpeedKernel  as the site says, after  mkdir qtsim 
[11:43] <darlok> h1st0: I can't figure that out.  I have Windows on Part-1, and Linux on Parts 2-3 (with #3 being my home)  I can't take space from #3 and move it to #1
[11:43] <web_knows> nobody using backports?
[11:43] <Pelo> web_knows, we all are what is the isse ?
[11:43] <GBenemy> h1st0: so how do I do it?
[11:43] <h1st0> darlok: you could shrink #3 and expand #1.
[11:43] <vjekoslav_> k ill try
[11:44] <darlok> h1st0: You can do that?? lol
[11:44] <slicks_mag1> sn0 one last question i think, wut do they mean by the host key (used for fullscreen)?
[11:44] <h1st0> darlok: yes just boot a live cd and resize the partitions.  Keep in mind if you are resizing a windows part you need to defrag it first.
[11:44] <Pelo> slicks_mag1, f11 possibly
[11:44] <darlok> h1st0: Wouldn't it be much quicker to just reinstall instead of having to move ALL the data on my hard drives?
[11:44] <sn0> slicks_mag1 the key to "toggle" between fullscreen and windowe'd
[11:44] <slicks_mag1> ok ty
[11:44] <h1st0> darlok: not really
[11:45] <h1st0> GBenemy: Were you dual booting between windows and ubuntu?
[11:45] <dug_> web_knows: i used to use some backports in debian, never had a problem with them.  if you go to system->administration->software sources and updates tab there is an "official" (but unsupported) backports repository
[11:45] <chibitk> hey is there anyway to defrag a hd?
[11:45] <h1st0> chibitk: A windows drive?  or linux?  ext3 doesn't need to be defraged
[11:45] <web_knows> Pelo, have you been using backports during a release upgrade? I'm worried about stability and release upgrades
[11:45] <Some_Person> Where is the apt log?
[11:45] <Pelo> chibitk, you don'T need to defrag ext3 partitions
[11:45] <h1st0> Some_Person: apt-get doesn't keep a log
[11:45] <kilonux> Chriss55: I agree with you,  ctrl X to quit and save,,,,  good bye
[11:46] <h1st0> Some_Person: aptitude does
[11:46] <Pelo> web_knows, I've never had luck with the upgrade proceedure, I always end up having ot clean install
[11:46] <Some_Person> h1st0: not the apt-get log, i want a full log of all package changes
[11:46] <darlok> h1st0: Well, I just "got" Vista so I'm going to go ahead and install that anyway... see what my friends say is SOOO awesome ;)
[11:46] <Pelo> chibitk,  I donT' allow private msg, please talk to me in the channel
[11:46] <h1st0> Some_Person: each package has its own changelog
[11:46] <GBenemy> h1st0: i have both installed, but i really can't figure out how to use ubuntu, and i can't install anything or anything, and as an experienced windows user, i'd prefer to stick with that. I still want ubuntu, but I want ubuntu, just on a diff hdd, because it's taking up too much on this one
[11:46] <h1st0> darlok: it actually sucks
[11:46] <GBenemy> darlok: vista is shit
[11:46] <Some_Person> h1st0: i need to if XChat updated yesterday, how do i check?
[11:46] <darlok> h1st0: I know that...
[11:47] <chibitk> ok yea im on ff and it seems like stuff takes a lil longer to load than i exspected
[11:47] <ikonia> that language is uncalled for
[11:47] <GBenemy> sorry
[11:47] <chibitk> are there any tweaks to speed things up?
[11:47] <chibitk> also
[11:47] <murkyMurk> darlok: yep, XP good , Vista naff naff
[11:47] <darlok> chibitk: sudo apt-get autoremove --purge gnome ;)
[11:47] <h1st0> GBenemy: then boot to the windows cd and select recovery.  When youg get to the C: just type in fixmbr
[11:47] <GBenemy> i did
[11:47] <GBenemy> it recovered it to yesterday's backup
[11:47] <h1st0> chibitk: what are your hardware specs
[11:47] <GBenemy> and i had ubuntu installed at that point
[11:48] <Some_Person> h1st0: you there?
[11:48] <h1st0> GBenemy: No you have to use the fixmbr command
[11:48] <h1st0> Some_Person: yes
[11:48] <stonebear> What other cool packages are there that you can think off? im having fun with apt-get
[11:48] <reya276> How can I get my Baboo tablet working on ubuntu? I tried following this(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wacom) tutorial but it is not working
[11:48] <Some_Person> h1st0: how would i check the last time xchat updated?
[11:48] <chibitk> h1 i have an amd turlion 53 and 2gb ddr2 with an ati 1400 256mb card
[11:48] <h1st0> Some_Person: i guess you could look in /var/cache/apt/archives/ to see if there is an older xchat package there.
[11:48] <Pelo> reya276,  which part are you having trouble with ?
[11:49] <GBenemy> h1st0: 'fixmbr' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
[11:49] <h1st0> chibitk: then what are you talking about speeding it up are you experiencing slow downs?
[11:49] <reya276> none, I follow the tutorial it is not working
[11:49] <h1st0> GBenemy: what version of windows?
[11:49] <Some_Person> h1st0: there is, but i want a date on when xchat was last updated
[11:49] <stefg> !windows
[11:49] <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
[11:49] <Pelo> reya276,  hold on , let me have a look at the tutorial
[11:49] <GBenemy> h1st0: vista
[11:49] <reya276> Pelo: when I try to go to the GIMP and activate the device it says none found
[11:50] <h1st0> GBenemy: well it should be on the installation cd somewhere.  Navigate to it and just fixmbr C:  will solve all your problems.  Getting rid of grub.
[11:50] <Pelo> reya276,  have you restarted X ?
[11:50] <h1st0> GBenemy: You may want to ask in #windows
[11:50] <reya276> yes
[11:50] <GBenemy> h1st0: I don't have a cd
[11:50] <reya276> Pelo:yes
[11:50] <GBenemy> my laptop came with it pre-installed
[11:50] <h1st0> Some_Person: well the new xchat package should be in there as well.  Just look at the date of the file

[11:55] <__ZiGgy__> how do i get voice on yahoo messenger???
[11:55] <Pelo> reya276,  you did install the two packages mentionned at the beginning right ?
[11:55] <Xero> __ZiGgy__, try GYachi. I have no idea where you'll get it, but it supports voice chat.
[11:56] <h1st0> !info gyachi
[11:56] <ubotu> Package gyachi does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas

[11:56] <reya276> Pelo: when I first connected the Tablet the blue light in the circle light up, but that is it, Yes I installed them both, I double checked on synaptic
[11:57] <Xero> :O Gutsy kernel updates!!!! YAY
[11:57] <chibitk> isnt gutsy a beta?
[11:57] <h1st0> reya276: aren't tablets controlled by wacom not synaptics?
[11:57] <Xero> chibitk, yes.
[11:57] <nexttwo> h1st0:so no virues. what about hackers???
[11:57] <Pelo> reya276,  I don'T have an easy way to troubleshoot this for you,  therer are several notes at the end that you should check out ,  note 5 is a good one to make sure hat your tablet is actualy recognised
[11:57] <murkyMurk> reya276: if it's USB sometimes a simple unplug/plugin sorts out a coldplug error

[11:58] <ubotu> nexttwo: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[11:58] <h1st0> Xero: I know just talking about gusty in here gives lots of new people ideas of switching to something that isn't even close to stable atm.
[11:58] <Xero> ^^ that's the reason you don't get h4xx0red
[11:58] <nexttwo> stefg:so it would be hard 2 hax ubutnu
[11:58] <Electrosys> Does feisty fawn come with a firewall installed. and could this be why a java .5 application can not connect?
[11:59] <Xero> nexttwo, VERY.
[11:59] <Xero> Users are not admins. They only have access to their $HOME.
[11:59] <h1st0> nexttwo: well not when you are logged in as root using irssi
[11:59] <chibitk> hmm
[11:59] <h1st0> nexttwo: err. irc
[11:59] <Electrosys> !firewall
[11:59] <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).
[11:59] <stefg> nexttwo: if it's a desktop machine and not a server running unattended, it's hardly possible to hack you
[11:59] <Xero> If you want access to / (C: in Windows speak) , you need to use sudo
[11:59] <h1st0> nexttwo: switch to your normal user and come back.
[11:59] <peanutb> In kde, whats the name of taskbar app? I force quitted it accidently
[11:59] <reya276> h1st0: I think that if you would have been following the conversation, you would not have made this comment "reya276: aren't tablets controlled by wacom not synaptics?" When I was asked if I installed the packages, I said I doubled checked on synaptic to make sure they were installed. It is frustrating enough that I can't get this to work
[12:00] <dappermuis> peanutb: kpanel
[12:00] <Xero> peanutb, kicker.
[12:00] <Pelo> Electrosys,  ubuntu comes with a firewall that is not enabled by default,   , it should not interfeer with java apps,  and if this is about azureus  try asking for help in #azureus-support that prog is quite a p0s to get working

[12:02] <h1st0> !sudo | nexttwo
[12:02] <ubotu> nexttwo: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:03] <cosmodad> what's 1 cup? that's supposed to mean DD if you wanna bait me
[12:03] <h1st0> nexttwo: there is no reason you should be root right now.
[12:03] <asslowashell> murkyMurk: I wonder why there isn't a "always open this type of file with this appliacion" checkbox on the open with window
