[12:19] <kst> is there a way to tell nautilus to not break long names of folders or files somewhere in the middle of a word? i dont mind the break in general, just maybe not in the middle of a word so a single letter stays at the end or stuff like that..
[12:19] <Roge> thx
[12:19] <murkyMurk> kernco: okay that just confirmed that you have an nVidia card at PCI:1:0:0 which is standard......google for easyUbuntu and use that to get and set up your nvidia card for you

[12:20] <h1st0> nexttwo: you have synaptic and apt-get going or two instances trying to install software
[12:20] <rsk> nexttwo: yes
[12:20] <nexttwo> i did that
[12:20] <murkyMurk> nexttwo: USUALLY means you forgot to sudo before the apt-get
[12:20] <murkyMurk> damn caPs lOCk
[12:20] <nexttwo> i did all that it still give same message
[12:20] <h1st0> nexttwo: or that.
[12:21] <h1st0> nexttwo: you need to sudo apt-get
[12:21] <nexttwo> did that
[12:21] <nexttwo> same error
[12:21] <h1st0> nexttwo: if you did and you are getting that error then you have update-manager or synaptic open also
[12:21] <h1st0> nexttwo: you can onlyhave one peice of software open trying to install stuff at a time.
[12:21] <murkyMurk> nexttwo: you can only have ONE apt-get/aptitude/synaptic going at once and it must be sudo to run properly
[12:22] <nexttwo> let me showdown like 20 p on

[12:24] <pdelgallego> hi  i want to configure my router. What the equivalence in ubuntu to the Hyperterminal in windows?
[12:25] <murkyMurk> CharlieSu: pine
[12:25] <CharlieSu> murkyMurk: isn't in repo..
[12:25] <murkyMurk> gusto5: just plug it into to the card reader and it should appear on your desktop as an icon
[12:26] <gusto5> murkyMurk, and if this is a potentially corrupted microSD card?
[12:26] <murkyMurk> CharlieSu: nooooooo, pine was a babe...okay
[12:27] <h1st0> CharlieSu: mail
[12:27] <CharlieSu> h1st0: ehh.. i don't like it
[12:27] <h1st0> CharlieSu: then check out pine
[12:27] <CharlieSu> doing it now
[12:27] <CharlieSu> thanks
[12:28] <hmhowie> pdelgallego: what's a hyperterminal?
[12:28] <murkyMurk> gusto5: dunno beyond that, never had to fight a corrupted card
[12:29] <h1st0> pdelgallego: don't you just navigate to a web page to configure your router?
[12:29] <stdin> hmhowie: I remember it being a GUI thing for telnet
[12:29] <pdelgallego> hmhowie: its the program I use to config my router a 3com
[12:29] <h1st0> pdelgallego: firefox
[12:29] <h1st0> pdelgallego: or telnet
[12:30] <hmhowie> pdelgallego: doesn't the router also have an http configuration screen?
[12:30] <unicycle> Hi everyone.  First time in the ubuntu chat.
[12:30] <pdelgallego> h1st0, I cant, the router have some filters.
[12:30] <h1st0> pdelgallego: ah hyperterm is telent
[12:30] <stdin> pdelgallego: open a terminal and use "telnet ipAddress port
[12:30] <h1st0> I remember now
[12:30] <murkyMurk> pdelgallego: minicom?
[12:30] <unicycle> what's the current topic at hand, folks?

[12:38] <timothy> If I have my username set as administrator, why do i not have access to root files?
[12:38] <Veinor> timothy: because the username 'administrator' is not special on linux.
[12:38] <Troseph> lol
[12:38] <kitche> timothy, if your user is in the admin group use sudo
[12:38] <timothy> how do i get root access?
[12:38] <murkyMurk> timothy: your username is just a name. To access admin files you must have root access
[12:39] <Veinor> timothy: sudo whatever command you want to run
[12:39] <dakira> does anyone know a good python book? best would be if it didn't start with the invention of the wheel.. any hints?

[12:40] <Veinor> hi.
[12:40] <firstInstall> could i get some help on ethernet configuration
[12:41] <murkyMurk> firstInstall: it's usually fully automatic

[12:41] <h1st0> !ask | firstInstall
[12:41] <ubotu> firstInstall: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:41] <firstInstall> yeahm i was trying to get my wireless up and somehow disconnected my connection alltogether
[12:42] <Troseph> That
[12:42] <Troseph> 's much different than ethernet

[12:42] <Veinor> if I write a little one-liner bash script, what's the standard place to put it so it'll be found by $PATH?
[12:43] <zombie_monkey> isn't a "complete removal" supposed to get rid of everything?
[12:43] <Pici> Veinor: usually /usr/bin/ for custom stuff.

[12:46] <zombie_monkey> I "completely removed" the non-free flash plugin form adobe, but I still have a ~/.macromedia directory with flash cookies
[12:46] <zombie_monkey> isn't a "complete removal" supposed to get rid of everything?
[12:46] <LjL> dappermuis: heheh no, it was my fault... i wasted too much time checking whether it *really* was a netsplit =)
[12:46] <Pici> zombie_monkey: It doesnt get rid of user configurations.
[12:46] <pike_> zombie_monkey: apt-get remove --purge package may work but i dunno for local config dirs
[12:46] <dappermuis> LjL, lol - i see

[12:46] <PanzerMKZ> ugh

[12:47] <murkyMurk> zombie_monkey: but that .file won't do anything without the original app
[12:47] <kitche> zombie_monkey, it's not really misleading I think it only complete removes what the package put there like config files and such
[12:48] <zombie_monkey> yes, I can see it that way
[12:49] <speps> hey guys ... a musicians question ... is there any tool for viewing ptb tabs (PowerTabs). Please ... i need it!!!Thanks
[12:49] <Veinor> if I have a script, 'filecount', that is supposed to count the files in a given directory, how can I get it so that when I run 'filecount *', the shell doesn't try to expand the *?
[12:50] <Veinor> right now, it just searches the first directory when I pass * as the argument.
[12:50] <LjL> Veinor: why use a script? "ls /directory | wc -l" will count your files
[12:50] <MrPink> hey, is there a way to edit the Ubuntu thingy that pops up after login that says that its loading Nautilus etc.? What is that thing called ?
[12:50] <LjL> Veinor: anyway, put the '*' in 'quotes'

[12:52] <sixpence> My vim doesn't have syntax highlighting. What's going on?
[12:52] <knoopx> uhm what do you think is the best formatting for storing data such video and audio?
[12:52] <Veinor> LjL: because if I want to run it on multiple directories, then that introduces extraneous lines and i have to do 'find * \! -type d | wc -l', which is a bit annoying
[12:52] <riotkittie> hate. wireless. <stab stab>.   if wep is more or less awful, and wpa2 is not-happening-here-short-of-a-miracle, i assume i should settle for wpa1? granted, that assumes i can use wpa1.
[12:52] <xipietotec> sixpence, you has to turn it on, and you have to name your file with the appropriate extension, or specifically tell vim what language you're using
[12:52] <dudeicles> I set my 2 backup HD's in fstab and now they won't mount. It used to work on my old install of Ubuntu can anyone help me?
[12:53] <riotkittie> or should i just, you know, like, rent some 7 year old out for 30 mins and have him recompile my kernel ? :|
[12:53] <RAdams> dudeicles: post your fstab to pastebin
[12:53] <MrPink> nah I don't think I mean the splash screan... (at least the screenshots of different Splashscreens aren't what I mean :D )
[12:53] <dudeicles> k
[12:53] <sixpence> xipietotec: So i'f im doing .rb ?
[12:53] <pdelgallego> h1hi, is the port 3000 free in a default ubuntu  installation?
[12:53] <RAdams> here's a silly question for anyone: has anybody every gotten one of those new-fangled fingerprint scanners to work in ubuntu?
[12:54] <LjL> Veinor: perhaps if you pastebin the script i can help better
[12:54] <pdelgallego> is the port 3000 free in a default ubuntu  installation?
[12:54] <xipietotec> sixpence, make sure your vim has a highlighting schema for ruby.
[12:54] <sixpence> xipietotec: How do I do that?
[12:54] <dudeicles> RAdams: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38499/
[12:54] <RAdams> pdelgallego: it's not used, but that doesn't make it open
[12:54] <pdelgallego> RAdams, how can i open it?
[12:55] <RAdams> dudeicles: ntfs-config is the devil
[12:55] <Roge> nothing running with a fresh install of ubuntu server ?
[12:55] <dudeicles> lol
[12:55] <pdelgallego> i want to allow the access to a webserver that is on my computer
[12:55] <xipietotec> sixpence, http://www.vim.org/htmldoc/syntax.html
[12:55] <Roge> the thing literally has no services running
[12:55] <Veinor> LjL: it's just one line: find $1 \! -type d | wc -l
[12:55] <dudeicles> so how do I expel the devil from my machine?
[12:55] <MrPink> http://www.zenstarstudio.com/install/full/ubuntu_0007.gif   this is what I mean... I already have a theme for a splashscreen (that works) but this thing comes after  I log myself in, how do I change that ?
[12:55] <dudeicles> I hate how the holy water makes it spark and not work
[12:55] <Roge> whats up with that

[12:56] <kitche> MrPink, replace that image file with the one you have
[12:56] <MrPink> kitche what image file?
[12:56] <fulio> how do i back up my files and everything i ahve installed im going to reinstall ubuntu
[12:57] <LjL> Veinor, the shell will always expand the * unless you quote it... but if you quote it, then i'm afraid that your script will *keep* it quoted
[12:57] <dudeicles> be gone ntfs-config BE GONE I TELL YOU!
[12:57] <dudeicles> lol
[12:57] <MrPink> kitche: and are there themes for it? like on gnome-look.org and if yes what are they called?

[12:58] <Pici> unicycle: Ubuntu support is... here.
[12:58] <Veinor> LjL: By trial and error, I found that passing '*', "*", or \* works
[12:58] <unicycle> Thanks.
[12:58] <kitche> MrPink and they are called Splash Screens :)
[12:58] <unicycle> I've got a question about c++ and Anjuta.
[12:58] <MrPink> kitche: Thanks I'll look at it and get back to you ;)
[12:58] <murkyMurk> MrPink: system>preferences>themes
[12:58] <unicycle> I program like I normally would in Windows, but then I can't compile and run the app.
[12:58] <dudeicles> RAdams: you told me ntfs-config is the devil, but how can I fix it?
[12:58] <MrPink> kitche: I thought this was a splashs creen: http://news.softpedia.com/images/reviews/large/installfeistyfawn-large_003.png
[12:59] <pdelgallego> RAdams, great, that is exactly what i need :)
[12:59] <kitche> MrPink, that is also a splash screen
[12:59] <MrPink> murkyMurk: But there isn't anything that fits my description there
[12:59] <murkyMurk> DjViper: right click the red ruby and select emerald themes
[12:59] <MrPink> kitche: maybe I'll just read the forum, than I maybe will understand ;)
[12:59] <unicycle> I program command prompt applications, simple ones, in C++ in Anjuta, but I can't figure out how to compile and run them in Ubuntu.  Can anyone help?
[12:59] <RAdams> dudeicles: http://www.ntfs-3g.org/index.html#usage
[12:59] <DjViper> murkyMurk: red ruby? where?
[12:59] <RAdams> dudeicles: also do yourself a favor: sudo apt-get remove ntfs-config
[01:00] <dudeicles> will do
[01:00] <murkyMurk> DjViper: I have a red gem icon on my taskbar..standard ruby install
[01:00] <dudeicles> says it's not installed
[01:00] <dudeicles> lol
[01:00] <unicycle>  I program command prompt applications, simple ones, using C++ in Anjuta, but I can't figure out how to compile and run them in Ubuntu.  Can anyone help?
[01:00] <DjViper> murkyMurk: I don't
[01:00] <murkyMurk> DjViper: called beryl manager
[01:01] <DjViper> hmmm
[01:01] <Veinor> RAdams: what's so bad about ntfs-config/ntfs-3g?
[01:01] <murkyMurk> DjViper: applications>system tools
[01:01] <CoasterMaster> unicycle: check out the build-essential package
[01:01] <RAdams> veinor: nothing about ntfs-3g, but ntfs-config can bork your fstab
[01:01] <Veinor> oh.
[01:01] <CoasterMaster> !info build-essential | unicycle
[01:01] <ubotu> unicycle: build-essential: informational list of build-essential packages. In component main, is optional. Version 11.3 (feisty), package size 6 kB, installed size 48 kB
[01:02] <RAdams> !info ntfs-config
[01:02] <ubotu> ntfs-config: Enable/disable write support for any NTFS devices. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.5-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 41 kB, installed size 432 kB
[01:02] <murkyMurk> DjViper: you should have beryl manager and beryl settings in there
[01:02] <wabid> does anyone here have a z61p by chance
[01:02] <RAdams> bad robot! don't recommend it!
[01:02] <dudeicles> RAdams: if I don't have ntfs-config installed it must have just been in the fstab file when I copied it over
[01:02] <DjViper> murkyMurk: hmmm ok
[01:02] <DjViper> but how do I change theme?
[01:03] <RAdams> dudeicles: possibly. use the bottom example on that page I pasted to you from ntfs-3g.org
[01:03] <wabid> or does anyone have a wuxga monitor
[01:03] <kitche> RAdams, you do know ntfs-config depends on ntfs-3g right?
[01:03] <dudeicles> ok
[01:04] <mikeal> there is a bug in the firefox bash script for ubuntu
[01:04] <murkyMurk> DjViper: you just select one using emerald theme manager gui under the berylmanager
[01:04] <m0nk> hey guys im racking my brain here....im about to strangle myself with my NES controller, i cant get the SNES Kerenel things to work right, anybody got this working for them?
[01:04] <dudeicles> RAdams: I think I know. I dont' have the 2 directories made already in my /media/ folder
[01:04] <dudeicles> hdb1 and hdc1
[01:04] <dudeicles> lol
[01:05] <mikeal> the ubuntu bash script for firefox, which isn't the standard one from mozilla, prefixes valid files with file://
[01:05] <m0nk> i know for a fact that this controller is wired correctly it worked on my windows machine and also on my dos machine back in i used that for my NES emulators
[01:05] <mikeal> which breaks a bunch of options, including -profile
[01:05] <m0nk> in/when
[01:05] <DjViper> murkyMurk: I should have added that I use compiz-fusion and xgl
[01:06] <murkyMurk> DjViper: lol..yes, that would explain why you don't have beryl & emerald ;)
[01:06] <RAdams> dudeicles: that would do it
[01:06] <DjViper> murkyMurk: hm okay, but I have emerald? what gives?
[01:06] <DjViper> AND i have beryl too
[01:06] <dudeicles> ok brb
[01:06] <DjViper> uh oh..
[01:06] <RAdams> dudeicles the easiest thing to do often is to let ubuntu automatically detect and update the fstab when it finds drives, then go back and change the filesystem from ntfs to ntfs-3g
[01:07] <DjViper> murkyMurk: beryl seems to be broken tho, no effects, seem compiz quit when I started the beryl manager
[01:07] <murkyMurk> DjViper: lost me. i though beryl/emerald was one way and compiz or compiz fusion the other way

[01:10] <unclemike> can i ask how ubuntu droped to 2nd in distrowatch and pclos jumped to 1st by a 177
[01:10] <CoasterMaster> #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { while(1) fork(); return 0; }
[01:10] <dudeicles> woohoo
[01:10] <dappermuis> unclemike: coz both of pclos users persuaded the owners of distrowatch to do it
[01:11] <unclemike> dappermuis: why you say that
[01:11] <dudeicles> lol Rprp nice exit quote I love the Simpsons
[01:11] <Rprp> :o
[01:11] <dappermuis> unclemike, nm
[01:13] <MrPink> ok thanks for the Link... it worked, got a nice Splahs Screen now 8-)
[01:13] <MrPink> *Splash
[01:13] <RAdams> Why can't I edit some genre tags in rhythmbox? I own the file and have the chmod rights to it
[01:13] <kkathman> sudo gedit the file
[01:14] <kkathman> or gksudo gedit  the file
[01:14] <kkathman> hehe
[01:14] <MrPink> Should I always install all of the updates, or could it be that then all of a sudden things could stop working ? (maybe a dumb question, but just making sure ;) )
[01:14] <RAdams> kkathman: I want to change it in rhythmbox
[01:14] <kkathman> check the permissions for rhythmbox
[01:14] <RAdams> mrpink: any updates are recommended for stability. except in a few rare cases, you should update
[01:14] <kkathman> psst you should use amarok anyway :)
[01:14] <kkathman> hehe
[01:14] <RAdams> kkathman: it has seperate permissions?
[01:15] <RAdams> and never!
[01:15] <MrPink> Radams and you dont know those few rare cases until it happens ? :D
[01:15] <RAdams> :P
[01:15] <kkathman> well if they dont have the same permissions I'd think that might be a problem
[01:15] <murkyMurk> MrPink: things can suddenly stop ;(
[01:15] <RAdams> mrpink: more or less, but rolling back isn't hard
[01:15] <CoasterMaster> Is there any package that has additional applets for gnome-panel?
[01:15] <MrPink> ok you'll be responsible to talk me through if My ubuntu is fried :-P
[01:16] <RAdams> ok remind this idiot how to check the owner and permissions of a file in terminal
[01:16] <RAdams> I forget the command to just check it and not change it
[01:16] <murkyMurk> ls -lah
[01:16] <RAdams> thanks murkymurg
[01:16] <RAdams> murkymurk*
[01:16] <pike_> RAdams: apropos and man -k are also handy   apropos permissions   for example
[01:17] <adac> do i have to activate log rotation by hand?
[01:17] <RAdams> itpc://www.billspry.com/Future_ClassX/In-Studio/rss.xml

[01:17] <RAdams> :\
[01:18] <pike_> ubuntu by default tends to prefer industrial goth    might be your problem
[01:18] <MrPink> hah
[01:18] <MrPink> a
[01:29] <LjL> how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
[01:30] <NessieLiberation> LjL: a little bit
[01:30] <poh> is there an easy way to go from using a default kernel image to building my own without an initrd.  That is: taking the necessary disk and other modules?
[01:30] <h1st0> Its not +m see

[01:30] <NessieLiberation> Im not the pheasant plucker i'm the pheasant plucker's son, I'm only plucking pheasants whilst the pheasant plucker's gone.
[01:30] <h1st0> poh: depends n what you consider easy
[01:30] <LjL> well, i wanted to make sure i hadn't set it by mistake :P
[01:30] <NessieLiberation> try saying that quickly when drunk

[01:31] <h1st0> Just saying in several years i've never seen it this way.
[01:31] <Xero> I like ssh.
[01:31] <pike_> its like we're the last people on earth

[01:34] <ubotu> jepp: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:34] <MattJ> pike_: If we are the last people on earth, isn't it great that we all use Ubuntu? :)
[01:34] <h1st0> LjL: ahh that would be why its so quiet
[01:34] <MattJ> jepp: A different model, but what's the problem?
[01:34] <pike_> MattJ: its pretty predictable really. the rest are just zombies now
[01:35] <NessieLiberation> MattJ: i have a slightly different model too... a fujitsu siemens :P
[01:35] <bascule> jepp: I have an acer 5633
[01:35] <jepp> tried to install WLAN (Atheros 5006EG) with NdisWrapper, but I can't still use it. iwconfig >> "no wireless extensions."

[01:37] <h1st0> jepp: gusty isn't supported
[01:37] <kersinc07> #panas
[01:38] <h1st0> jepp: there are people using it in #ubuntu+1 but that is for bug testing.  If you can't fix it you shouldn't be using gusty
[01:38] <Xero> h1st0, /s/gusty/gutsy for future reference.
[01:38] <pike_> jepp: most of the gutsy support happens in #ubuntu+1 unitil the general release
[01:38] <murkyMurk> gn ubuntu buddies

[01:43] <disposition> why would my external HD mount to my system, but fail to appear on my desktop as a shortcut? it also doesn't automount, i had to put it into my fstab and do sudo mount -a?
[01:43] <kkathman> or someone might not :)
[01:43] <kkathman> hehe
[01:43] <h1st0> dean_: well jsut ask you question.  When speaking with one person begin to type their name and hit <tab> to autocomplete it.
[01:43] <dean_> OK, I have a compaq presario can't get feisty fawn to boot
[01:43] <pike_> dean_: welcome to ubuntu by the way :)
[01:43] <h1st0> dean_: that way it highlights there line
[01:43] <jimmygoon> I've got a
[01:43] <kkathman> secret?
[01:43] <h1st0> dean_: also just FYI there are no "staff" people herre this is all volunteers
[01:43] <pike_> jimmygoon: well? what do you got?
[01:43] <jimmygoon> I've got a FLV file and I used ffmpeg to convert it to an AVI but I lost a lot quality - is there a way to preserve it?
[01:44] <jimmygoon> (accidental Enter pressing)
[01:44] <iSzabo> dean_: Is it that you can't get the live CD to boot, or is it that you can't get an installation to boot.
[01:44] <dean_> got a compaq presario with an amd athelon but won't boot off either downloads
[01:44] <h1st0> jimmygoon: there are a lot of options for quality on ffmpeg.  Try man ffmpeg or searching on google for some peoples adice.
[01:44] <Chousuke> jimmygoon: AVI is just a container. which codec did you use?
[01:44] <h1st0> dean_: What happens when you try to boot?
[01:44] <iSzabo> dean_: have you burnt the CD?
[01:45] <jimmygoon> Chousuke, whichever one ffmpeg defaults to
[01:45] <Chousuke> hmm :/
[01:45] <Chousuke> it might be mpeg2 :P
[01:45] <dean_> no screen just an error message so had to get out my laptop but eventually want to get ubuntu up on everything I have
[01:45] <Chousuke> jimmygoon: I suggest encoding it with h.264
[01:45] <matt__> hey i have a problem, i installed cedega and when i click the icon it crashes and goes to my login screen
[01:45] <matt__>  i had this problem in xubuntu and ubuntu before and some guy helped me out and had me move something around and then it worked
[01:45] <matt__>  but i had to reinstall and now im in the same situation
[01:45] <matt__>  can somebody help plz :)?
[01:45] <disposition> anyone have any idea why my externa drive would be doing that?
[01:45] <jimmygoon> Chousuke, how would I even do that :P
[01:45] <LjL> !repeat > matt__    (matt__, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:45] <LjL> !paste > matt__    (matt__, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:46] <bascule> Chousuke: is h.264 quicktime?
[01:46] <Chousuke> no
[01:46] <Haz> !repeat > Haz
[01:46] <iSzabo> dean_: how far into the boot does it get, do you get to the bootloader menu?
[01:46] <Haz> :o
[01:46] <Chousuke> h.264 is a free codec as far as I know
[01:46] <h1st0> dean_: what is the error message?
[01:46] <sUb--eeero> How do I upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10
[01:47] <Chousuke> jimmygoon: transcoding isn't really easy. you need to learn how to use ffmpeg or find a frontend :/
[01:47] <pike_> !update | sUb--eeero
[01:47] <ubotu> sUb--eeero: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:47] <h1st0> LjL: one of the problems with the bot is the PMs don't get there if the user's nick isn't registered
[01:47] <LjL> h1st0: they should
[01:47] <h1st0> !gutsy > sUb--eeero
[01:47] <sUb--eeero> pike_, that didnt help
[01:47] <_gpg_> anyone using eclipse 3.3+ here please ?
[01:47] <dean_> I didn't write down the error message and now my son is on, I will try to get a copy of it, but it was just a sentence long and quit
[01:47] <LjL> h1st0: unregistered users cannot *send* messages, but they can *receive* them. besides, ubotu can receive messages even from unregged users
[01:47] <h1st0> LjL: You can't receive a pm on freenode if you aren't registered nick unless they changed it.
[01:48] <silly_nick> !ubuntu > silly_nick
[01:48] <h1st0> LjL: ahh
[01:48] <h1st0> LjL: my bad
[01:48] <joeKr> Does anyone know of an "add/remove" way to get IE6 running on Ubuntu? Has anyone put together a Wine install script, VM Ware player script, etc.?
[01:48] <bascule> that worked for me there
[01:48] <pike_> sUb--eeero: typically i do something like 'sudo sed -i 's/feisty/gutsy/g' /etc/apt/sources.list; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' but i dunno if that is recommended way
[01:48] <iSzabo> food, I'm out
[01:48] <h1st0> joeKr: ies4lin
[01:48] <h1st0> !ies4lin > joeKr
[01:49] <h1st0> sUb--eeero: gutsy is not stable
[01:49] <fulio> Amaranth: is it done?
[01:49] <dean_> I tried to "register" but can't figure that out.
[01:49] <joeKr> h1st0: thanks!
[01:49] <jimmygoon> Chousuke, a frontend you can recommend?
[01:49] <Chousuke> I don't know any
[01:49] <sbrinkerhoff> Is Photoshop/etc usable under vmware?
[01:49] <sbrinkerhoff> or is it REALLY slow
[01:49] <ajmorris|AFK> !away | ajmorris_
[01:49] <ubotu> ajmorris_: You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair on new users. The same goes for using noisy away messages : use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently - See also !Guidelines

[01:55] <kitche> odzk: what version of ubuntu are you on I m on feisty and have 2.0.0.6
[01:55] <pike_> odzk: you can look for a guide but really its just as easy to just download it from firefox website unpack it and run
[01:55] <odzk> ive already unpack it
[01:55] <odzk> and there is a folder called "firefox"
[01:55] <odzk> how can i run it
[01:55] <bascule> you ned to build it first
[01:55] <pike_> odzk: drag that folder to your desktop or something
[01:56] <jrib> odzk: in ubuntu you do should not install things like that.  Just let the update-manager and Package manager take care of downloading and installing things
[01:56] <jrib> odzk: make sure you have updates and security updates enabled in system -> administration -> software sources and let update-manager do its thing
[01:56] <pike_> odzk: sorry im used to using debian i guess looks like the package manager should be kept pretty current
[01:56] <dean_> odzk: try Application - Add/Remove look up the list or search for swift fox, I think it is there
[01:57] <odzk> ive tried the synaptic app manager but before i can install the update it will update everything
[01:57] <odzk> and i have dial up it will take me forver
[01:57] <RAdams> bah, I've already done everything !info codecs suggests... my kingdom to the man who can get mms://wm6.spacialnet.com/ClassXHi working!
[01:58] <dean_> Anyone can help with my problems booting on Compaq and the BusyBox Error??
[01:58] <pike_> odzk: can ya just sudo apt-get install firefox  ?
[01:58] <what_if> I have a few questions about DVD+R VS DVD-R... is there a room for such things ?
[01:58] <jrib> odzk: update-manager lets you select what you want to update, but pike_'s command will work as well
[01:58] <NessieLiberation> what_if: does it have anything to do with ubuntu? if not, ask in a social channel
[01:58] <what_if> NessieLiberation: um, I burn from ubuntu (j/k)
[01:59] <odzk> how about the tar.gz that ive already downloaded. is there something i can do about that file?
[01:59] <odzk> firefox2.0.0.7.tar.gz file
[01:59] <NessieLiberation> what_if: #ubuntu-offtopic would be a better place to hang out if you want to ask social questions like that
[01:59] <jim> what is the ubuntu release cycle like? how and from where does it start, what happens in the middle (milestones etc), like that
[01:59] <rsk> jim: read the roadmap on the wiki
[01:59] <jrib> odzk: delete it, it's not needed.  If you use it, it will circumvent the package manager and thus you lose the benefits of the package manager
[01:59] <dean_> Anyone heard of BusyBox I can't shake this error
[02:00] <what_if> NessieLiberation: K, ty :)
[02:00] <odzk> as far as i know first is you set the package in repository right, like the apt
[02:01] <jrib> jim: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment is a pretty good summary.  Releases are made every 6 months (april for *.04 and october for *.10)
[02:01] <odzk> then u do the sudo -apt update
[02:01] <newbuntu> do I chroot to mount? I made folder d in Desktop, and mounted there...but I don't know any other way beside using gui...filesystem is ext3
[02:01] <odzk> right?
[02:01] <newbuntu> I don't know what chroot is capable of...
[02:01] <odzk> then to install u do th wget..... -sudo something like that
[02:01] <jrib> odzk: what are you asking?
[02:01] <h1st0> newbuntu: chroot makes you root on that filesystem
[02:01] <odzk> i have problems installing the new firefox
[02:01] <odzk> the 2.0.0.7 version
[02:02] <h1st0> newbuntu: it has nothing to do with mounting the filesystem.
[02:02] <jrib> odzk: do you understand what I and others just told you?
[02:02] <h1st0> newbuntu: what are you trying to do specifically
[02:02] <jim> jrib: at the beginning of that period, what do you have and where do you get it? are you completely going from the standpoint of ubuntu old releases?
[02:02] <jrib> jim: they sync up with debian unstable.  #ubuntu-motu might get you better answers
[02:03] <jim> btw, are you guys using d-i?
[02:03] <newbuntu> I have live cd running, and I mounted ext3 hd using gui to desktop/d
[02:03] <newbuntu> and I'm unable to write
[02:03] <odzk> synaptec manager will update everything i just want my firefox to be updated
[02:03] <myconid> Whats the command line multipart file downloader
[02:03] <just^me> hi
[02:03] <just^me> newbie here in ubuntu
[02:03] <kitche> odzk: synaptic will update everything that firefox has been updated against
[02:04] <jrib> odzk: yes, and after you said that, pike_ told you that 'sudo apt-get install firefox' will update ONLY firefox.  As will update-manager if you only mark the checkbox for firefox
[02:04] <h1st0> newbuntu: hrm you need to change the mount options
[02:04] <h1st0> !mount > newbuntu
[02:04] <odzk> oh well, synaptec needs to update 180MB to be downloaded
[02:04] <odzk> i have dial up
[02:04] <myconid> odzk : ouch
[02:04] <jrib> odzk: no one is saying synaptic
[02:04] <odzk> too bad for me -_-
[02:04] <bascule> myconid: multi-part file downloader?
[02:04] <greg> Could not open '/dev/kqemu' - QEMU acceleration layer not activated
[02:04] <h1st0> odzk: no you can update just firefox
[02:04] <greg> how do i fix?
[02:04] <odzk> how
[02:04] <navets> how can you convert a mp3 file to a wma file?
[02:04] <myconid> bascule: yea.. like GetRight .. or such?  Its one of the defaults for Gentoo (or was .. two years ago)
[02:04] <h1st0> greg: build the kqemu module
[02:05] <myconid> but getright is for windows.
[02:05] <h1st0> !kqemu > greg
[02:05] <navets> can you use the command line to do it?
[02:05] <just^me> can i ask u guys a question?
[02:05] <h1st0> !ask | just^me
[02:05] <ubotu> just^me: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:05] <greg> h1st0 i installed via apt
[02:05] <myconid> just: oh my god.. just ask
[02:05] <just^me> lol
[02:05] <jim> doesn't lame do those conversions
[02:05] <jrib> odzk: I just told you how, do you understand what I said?
[02:05] <bascule> myconid: no idea, just use wget myself, multi-part file is not a term i really understand
[02:05] <jim> just^me: you jusdt did
[02:05] <h1st0> greg: the wiki at help.ubuntu.com has excellent instructions for the kqemu module.  Or there is always virtualbox you can use
[02:05] <just^me> lol,, silly me
[02:06] <navets> how can you convert a mp3 file to a wma file?
[02:06] <jim> (how does it feel, now that you have asked your first question)
[02:06] <greg> h1st0 virtualbox fails
[02:06] <bascule> navets: no wma encoder in linux as yet
[02:06] <just^me> i'm using the latest ubuntu version
[02:06] <odzk> sudo -apt firefoxsudo apt-get install firefox
[02:06] <myconid> bascule: mutli, more than one, part = pieces... download a file in pieces..  with different processes.. great for ppl on shitty cable
[02:06] <just^me> having trouble creating another user
[02:06] <odzk> sudo apt-get install firefox
[02:06] <odzk> ?
[02:06] <odzk> is that right?
[02:06] <h1st0> greg: well check out the directions on the wiki for building the kqemu module I don't believe qemu from apt installs the module
[02:06] <jim> you have to be root
[02:06] <jrib> odzk: yes, but in a terminal
[02:06] <h1st0> greg: it should still work with out it it will just be slower
[02:06] <pike_> just^me: im not too familiar with the gnome tools but sudo adduser should work nicely
[02:07] <bascule> myconid: I see like multithread downloads, i get it now, still none the wiser as to what to suggest
[02:07] <jim> you run adduser (or if from a script, useradd, more robust, less easy)
[02:07] <odzk> ok
[02:07] <odzk> so there is really nothing i can do about the tar.gz file right
[02:07] <h1st0> just^me: go to System > Administration > Users & groups
[02:07] <just^me> whenever i click "user n group", it will just load a window n hanged
[02:07] <pike_> odzk: you can use it sure
[02:07] <odzk> so there is really nothing i can do about the firefox2.0.0.7tar.gz file right
[02:07] <myconid> bascule: flashget.. but theres one im thinking of that gentoo has as an option that I liked and I want again
[02:07] <jrib> odzk: like I said, if you use it, you will circumbent the package manager and lose its benefits
[02:07] <h1st0> odzk: what do you mean?
[02:07] <myconid> bascule: prozilla!
[02:08] <h1st0> odzk: just update firefox from apt and not update all the other stuff
[02:08] <pike_> odzk: just drag the folder to your desktop and ya got a local firefox install. it just isnt the best way to run it i guess
[02:08] <l0kiII> How do you check HDD space on Ubuntu?
[02:08] <just^me> pike, i've tried doing it in the terminal
[02:08] <h1st0> l0kiII: df or dh
[02:08] <l0kiII> eh?
[02:08] <pike_> just^me: you just wanna know how just to know how?
[02:08] <just^me> can add... but later when i log in using the gUI... cannot
[02:08] <h1st0> l0kiII: open a terminal and type in df
[02:08] <rsk> l0kiII: df -h
[02:08] <bascule> myconid: filezilla! <-- maybe .. ?
[02:09] <pike_> just^me: tar xfvz file.tar.gz  then cd firefox  then chmod +x firefox then ./firefox
[02:09] <pike_> just^me: that chmod isnt the best way but..
[02:09] <myconid> http://prozilla.genesys.ro/ << prozilla
[02:09] <odzk> ok thaks guys ill try the firefox
[02:09] <h1st0> just^me: just use the System > Administration > users & groups to add a user
[02:10] <pike_> odzk: lol i got a little confused that above is for you
[02:10] <odzk> how does chmod works\
[02:10] <just^me> pike, does creating user need to involve firefox?
[02:10] <newbuntu> sudo mount /dev/hda1 d    ??? still not able to write...
[02:10] <just^me> just curious
[02:10] <h1st0> odzk: man chmod
[02:10] <pike_> just^me: no i typed wrong nick sorry
[02:10] <odzk> ok ill try that
[02:11] <h1st0> newbuntu: you need to change the mount options did you read the pm from ubotu
[02:11] <odzk> im in the windows pc right now i cant do it im just taking notes down
[02:11] <newbuntu> ah, sorry, looking
[02:11] <just^me> h1st0:  i tried tht... it just load a window... then the window just hanged
[02:11] <just^me> ok pike
[02:11] <just^me> :)
[02:11] <h1st0> newbuntu: or you can man mount to read about the options.  the problem is you are mounting it so that root has write support for it but not the livecd user
[02:11] <dean_> Where is the Channel that supports Ubuntu Boot problems??
[02:11] <h1st0> newbuntu: you could just mount it to your desktoop and gksu nautlis in a terminal to write to it.
[02:11] <jrib> dean_: this one
[02:11] <newbuntu> that's how I originally mounted...
[02:12] <newbuntu> gks, ok
[02:12] <HealthyElijah> quick poll: How Many of you have been using linux less than 1 year?
[02:12] <HealthyElijah> ME
[02:12] <NessieLiberation> me
[02:12] <NessieLiberation> well, no, not me
[02:12] <jrib> !offtopic | HealthyElijah
[02:12] <ubotu> HealthyElijah: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:12] <AndrewB> !offtopic
[02:12] <dean_> I get a BusyBox error and can't go anywhere
[02:12] <h1st0> newbuntu: open a terminal and gksu nautilus  then navigate to it and write what ever you need
[02:12] <HealthyElijah> jrib: It is on topic buddy
[02:12] <HealthyElijah> Ubuntu is Linux
[02:12] <wabid> can i do !fixres or do i need ops/voice
[02:12] <bascule> dean_: is it a SATA cdrom or RAID hdd setup?
[02:12] <jrib> HealthyElijah: #ubuntu is only for *support*, your question should be in #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:12] <jim> there's #defocus for random chatter too
[02:12] <just^me> h1st0: any solution from u?
[02:13] <HealthyElijah> jrib: nobody there
[02:13] <LjL> wabid: if you need it for yourself, do it in a PM. otherwise, feel free
[02:13] <jrib> wabid: you can do it, but if it is only for your benefit, please use:  /msg ubotu fixres
[02:13] <h1st0> just^me: I already told you click on System > Administration > Users & Groups  to add a user
[02:13] <wabid> thanks
[02:13] <dean_> I try to boot into Ubuntu and get a BusyBox error. What is that and why?
[02:14] <bascule> dean_: is it a SATA cdrom or RAID hdd setup?
[02:14] <wabid> im having a bitch of a time enabling 1900x1200 correctly
 h1st0:  i tried tht... it just load a window... then the window just hanged
[02:14] <Ongaku> hi, was wondering if anyone knows how to set up a synaptics touchpad?
[02:14] <h1st0> dean_: are you trying to boot the cd?
[02:14] <dean_> I don't know, I burned the disk from the iso file
[02:14] <wabid> how come the default resolution for a 1920x1200 monitor is 1920x1440
[02:14] <just^me> as i said, it just hanged
[02:14] <MasterShrek`> Ongaku, does it work at all?
[02:14] <bascule> Ongaku: gsynaptics
[02:14] <Ongaku> no it doesn't
[02:14] <bascule> ah, ok cancel that
[02:14] <h1st0> dean_: you need to check the cd for defects.  There shuld be an option on the first menu that comes up.
[02:14] <Craleu> Hello, I have a problem with installing ubuntu on my thumbdrive and now my computer wont boot with out the jumpdrive plugged in i was wondering how to fix this problem.
[02:14] <jim> HealthyElijah: question for you... are you doing the unix learning things, like looking at how the dir tree looks, looking at commands (say, in /usr/bin), oicking one or two, reading the man page and at first going "oh crap, why do they write it that way!!"
[02:14] <LjL> how could i install everything that's in (k)ubuntu-desktop, *including* the recommends, when i already have (k)ubuntu-desktop installed, and hopefully without removing it?
[02:14] <h1st0> dean_: or try burning it at a slower speed
[02:15] <MasterShrek`> Ongaku, then i cannot help u, i would have suggested gnsnaptics as wll
[02:15] <jim> (and might as well be for all newer folks)
[02:15] <Ongaku> oh lol
[02:15] <h1st0> LjL: sudo apt-get reinstall <packagename>
[02:15] <wabid> any chance someone can pm me and help me with a modeline
[02:15] <Ongaku> its not too big a deal...lol
[02:15] <h1st0> !resolution > wabid
[02:15] <Ongaku> i have a reg mouse...just wanted it for when i travel cos i use this and nothing else
[02:16] <wabid> i typed "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" san quotes into terminal
[02:16] <dean_> I get the kernal load, I see the first artwork, then get a BusyBox Error and a statement that /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[02:16] <wabid> then i used the output and added it to xorg.conf
[02:16] <LjL> h1st0, that won't work i'm afraid, only reinstalls the single package without much caring
[02:16] <wabid> and it doesnt work
[02:16] <jim> wabid: with newer monitors and systems, it reads the monitor capabilities and figures out a mode line for you
[02:16] <h1st0> LjL: hrm...
[02:16] <just^me> i guess no1 here has trouble adding user thru GUI
[02:16] <wabid> yea thats why i checked /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:16] <newbuntu> Error: mount point /home/ubuntu/Desktop/d is not below /media/    ???
[02:16] <just^me> another thing is... is there anyway to disable the keyring?
[02:17] <Craleu> my problem is quite annoying i just did it a few moments ago reguarding the thumbdrive install and i cant make my computer boot, unless i plug the jumpdrive in.
[02:17] <h1st0> LjL: Well all of the dependencies have to be there if the meta package is there.
[02:17] <wabid> but when i added it to xorg.conf (so it would recognize it at gdm) its completely wrong
[02:17] <wabid> cuz my gdm is running at the wrong rez
[02:17] <LjL> h1st0: the dependencies, yes, but not the recommends
[02:17] <bascule> Craleu: adjust the BIOS settings so it looks to hdd first
[02:17] <h1st0> Craleu: you installed grub tot he mbr of the hard disk and the config files are on the thumbdrive maybe?
[02:17] <jim> I'm kinda interested in seeing what it's all about... so... can I use debootstrap to create a ubuntu chroot
[02:17] <odzk> guys i also need help in setting up the video card i have nvi gforce 440 SE, ive downloaded the software but its on tar.gz any idea how to install it?\
[02:17] <wabid> and !fixres doesnt work
[02:17] <h1st0> LjL: well you could just look up the recomends and install them manually
[02:17] <Ongaku> easy odzk
[02:17] <kitche> Ljl: seems like aptitude does what you want
[02:18] <wabid> thats exactly what i did
[02:18] <jim> and not particularly interested in ubuntu+1 :)
[02:18] <LjL> h1st0: yeah, but i'd need that recursively
[02:18] <odzk> cool how?
[02:18] <LjL> kitche: like what?
[02:18] <h1st0> odzk: just use the restricted manager
[02:18] <bascule> h1st0: good spot :)
[02:18] <LjL> h1st0: i basically want to duplicate whatever comes pre-installed on the CD
[02:18] <odzk> i did
[02:18] <odzk> but its now doing anything
[02:18] <Ongaku> cd <directory where it is>, then ./configure...if that goes well do make then sudo make install
[02:18] <h1st0> LjL: You might need someone that knows more about how apt and meta packages work.
[02:18] <odzk> i put a checked mark on the vdia gforce but it keeps on saying that it needs a driver
[02:18] <Craleu> could anyone assist me in fixing this problem? the i recive a grub error when my thumbdrive is not pluged in
[02:18] <wastrel> LjL: boot from cd, dpgk -l | grep ^ii > mylist   then use that list to script your install?
[02:19] <h1st0> odzk: do you have internet access?
[02:19] <odzk> yup
[02:19] <juannicolas> Hi, i need to make my interfaces go up when booting automatically on my ubuntu 7.04 server. Can someone help me what I need to setup?
[02:19] <LjL> wastrel, i don't have the cd, otherwise sure ;)
[02:19] <odzk> dial up
[02:19] <h1st0> odzk: it should download and install the driver
[02:19] <Ongaku> lol
[02:19] <Ongaku> ouch
[02:19] <jrib> LjL: wajig recommended kubunt-desktop   do it for you?
[02:19] <odzk> i did
[02:19] <h1st0> odzk: then its working.
[02:19] <LjL> jrib: eh?
[02:19] <odzk> its on filename.tar.gz or something
[02:19] <h1st0> odzk: open a terminal and type in glxinfo | grep render
[02:19] <odzk> i dont know how to install
[02:19] <Ongaku> you have to do some stuff to do that
[02:19] <odzk> its just a compressed file
[02:19] <Ongaku> extract it
[02:19] <jrib> LjL: it's a command
[02:19] <PThomas> What file stores the message after login in ubuntu server?
[02:19] <LjL> jrib: ah, wajig being a front-end... sorry, couldn't parse your sentence :)
[02:20] <odzk> i did
[02:20] <odzk> then the folder contain files
[02:20] <Ongaku> then in terminal
[02:20] <jim> me want doo stuff today... talk pretty tomorrow...
[02:20] <kitche> LjL: I just know that aptitude can install recommends as well if it's setup correctly
[02:20] <h1st0> odzk: no the restricted manager should take care of the drivers for you.  You shouldn't have to download anything it will prompt if you want to enable them after checkboxing them.
[02:20] <odzk> but i donw what to do with it
[02:20] <Ongaku> type cd <directory it's in>
[02:20] <unagi> is there another wireless monitor available where you can refresh the list?
[02:20] <LjL> kitche: yup, but so can apt-get, the catch is that they work if you don't *already* have the package installed
[02:20] <odzk> i did enable them enable them
[02:20] <odzk> but nothing happens
[02:20] <odzk> it keeps going back on red
[02:20] <Craleu> I'm not quite sure on how to edit a MDB file :(
[02:21] <h1st0> odzk: if they are enable the driver is installed after a restart.
[02:21] <kitche> LjL: hmm never knew apt-get can do it also since I never really looked at apt-get by itself
[02:21] <odzk> i did
[02:21] <unagi> !gdm
[02:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gdm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:21] <odzk> it keeps on going back to red
[02:21] <unagi> !theme
[02:21] <ubotu> Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[02:21] <h1st0> odzk: opena  terminal
[02:21] <odzk> then?
[02:21] <h1st0> odzk: then type in glxinfo | grep render     What is the output of the direct rendering line?
[02:21] <LjL> kitche, with apt-get you need to change a setting in a config file, with aptitude it's just a cli option. but i think it's enabled by default even in apt-get now, since Edgy or something
[02:21] <Chandler_> I'm having a problem with Baghira installing from apt. I tried compiling the source, but I don't know what the hell i'm doing. Would anyone mind walking me through this?
[02:21] <odzk> ok ill take note of that
[02:21] <Chandler_> or just plain fixing it.
[02:21] <dean_> hlst0: any help on load error??
[02:21] <jrib> !who | odzk
[02:21] <ubotu> odzk: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[02:22] <jim> so, jungle book characters?
[02:22] <newbuntu> how can a live cd get ownership of a hd?
[02:22] <bascule> Chandler_: isn't that kde only?
[02:22] <h1st0> dean_: try scanning the disc for defects its one of the options on the menu when it boots.
[02:22] <odzk> ahh ok
[02:22] <Chandler_> yes i'm using Kubuntu. A ubuntu friend of mine said to come here.
[02:22] <PThomas> After I login to ubuntu server, where is that message located?
[02:22] <jrib> newbuntu: mount it and do what you want as root (sudo)
[02:22] <h1st0> newbuntu: I told you already.

[02:22] <dean_> hlst0: I ll try, just a minute...
[02:22] <newbuntu> I can
[02:22] <newbuntu> I can't get ownership to write
[02:22] <bascule> odzk: never apologise for being a noob
[02:23] <h1st0> newbuntu: mount the drive.  then open a terminal and type in gksu nautilus    Then just go to the folder and edit it.
[02:23] <jrib> newbuntu: gksudo nautilus
[02:23] <jim> newbuntu: when you boot any os, there are parts of it that have access to everything...
[02:23] <newbuntu> ok, trying gksudo nautilus
[02:23] <LjL> jrib: it works but only for direct recommends, not recursively :\
[02:23] <jim> newbuntu: maybe it's mounted read only
[02:23] <odzk> bascule: ok
[02:23] <jrib> LjL: shame
[02:23] <dav3> hi
[02:23] <odzk> bascule: thanks
[02:23] <bascule> ;)
[02:23] <patrick_> ello

[02:24] <dav3> does pen tablets work on ubuntu?>
[02:24] <dean_> hlst0: same error message when checking cd
[02:24] <h1st0> dav3: yes with wacom
[02:24] <jrib> LjL: http://wajig.togaware.com/ I don't really know anything about it, but the word "recursive" is on that page
[02:24] <dav3> cool
[02:24] <h1st0> dean_: It errors before it even checks the cd?
[02:24] <newbuntu> (nautilus:10829): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[02:24] <newbuntu> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[02:24] <LjL> jrib: this *sort* of works, but i have the feeling it also puts in stuff that it shouldn't:  apt-cache depends --recurse kubuntu-desktop | grep Recomm | sed 's/[^:] *: //g' | sed 's/<[^>] \+>//g' | tr "\n" " "
[02:24] <h1st0> dean_: which cd did you download btw?
[02:24] <patrick_> how do u install cedega? when ever i try to install it through the terminal itll ask for a password but I cannot type in the password
[02:24] <dav3> anyone know a online store that accepts unverified paypal?
[02:24] <jim> so who/which irc channel can tell me how to build a chroot of latest -released- ubuntu?
[02:24] <jrib> !offtopic | dav3
[02:24] <ubotu> dav3: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:25] <Ongaku> u cant sudo patrick?
[02:25] <LjL> jrib: anyway i suppose i'll just end up getting the CD and taking the list from there, no big deal
[02:25] <patrick_> thats what i tried
[02:25] <Ongaku> ok one sec
[02:25] <jrib> patrick_: you don't see anything when you type, but it is getting input.  Just hit enter when you are done
[02:25] <dav3> sudo onlinestore
[02:25] <odzk> h1st0: what can i do about the compressed file that ive just downloaded filane.tar.gz? do i have just to delete it
[02:25] <cjae_> any good how to sites for using pgp under thunderbird
[02:25] <nexttwo> how do i info about my dvd drive
[02:25] <dean_> hlst0: the 386 version Same error message about BusyBox etc.
[02:25] <nexttwo> >>?
[02:25] <Random832> so can anyone tell me how to get rid of Floppy 1 Floppy 2 Floppy 3 ... Floppy 8 from my "Computer"?
[02:25] <Ongaku> if you cant sudo patrick look at this http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/sudo
[02:25] <bascule> nexttwo: sudo hdparm -i /dev/scd0
[02:25] <bascule> nexttwo: sudo hdparm -i /dev/scd1
[02:26] <h1st0> odzk: did the output of the command I gave you say Direct rendering Yes  ???
[02:26] <nny> any chance someone can help with xterm doign strange things in remote shell on other boxes? dmesg locks it up, have to restart session
[02:26] <h1st0> newbuntu: You should be able to write to the drive as root.  Try this un mount the drive.
[02:26] <h1st0> newbuntu: then sudo mkdir /mnt/d
[02:26] <Kaur> is there any way to make sure if my hdd does or doesn't spin down on shutdown?
[02:27] <h1st0> newbuntu: sudo mount -t ext3 /path/to/mount/point /mnt/d
[02:27] <jrib> cjae_: you can use enigmail with thunderbird
[02:27] <patrick_> it doesnt allow me to type in the password
[02:27] <bernier> !gutsy | bernier
[02:27] <odzk> h1st0: im on a windows pc right now. just taking down notes
[02:27] <bascule> Kaur: if the machine powersoff, no drive spinning there ... :)
[02:27] <cjae_> jrib, is it better
[02:27] <jrib> patrick_: it does.  It just does not display anything for security reasons.
[02:27] <IdleOne> patrick_: you wont see the password or **** when typing it in. just type and hit enter
[02:27] <Kaur> bascule: actually... There's a bug in ubuntu
[02:27] <cjae_> jrib, or easier?
[02:27] <odzk> h1st0: so basically, there is really nothing i can dot about the .tar.gz file that ive downloaded from nvdia
[02:27] <h1st0> odzk: Oh well it should say direct rendering Yes if it says that then you have drivers installed.  If not open a terminal and sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[02:27] <jim> Kaur: shutdown should (eventually) turn off the computer... the drive will probably spin down if power is removed :)
[02:27] <Kaur> bascule: I can give u a link
[02:27] <patrick_> ooooo, wow thanks a lot lol
[02:28] <Kaur> Ok...
[02:28] <odzk> h1st0: ahh ok
[02:28] <Kaur> sry
[02:28] <h1st0> odzk: if you really want to use the tar.gz from nvidia you can read the directions from ubotu
[02:28] <jrib> cjae_: than?  it sets up hooks for pgp or gnupg
[02:28] <bascule> Kaur: if the thing is off, there is no drive spinning
[02:28] <Kaur> i mean does it park
[02:28] <h1st0> !nvidia > odzk
[02:28] <Ongaku> did you get it patrick?
[02:28] <patrick_> yeah, lol im retarded
[02:28] <patrick_> thanks a lot
[02:28] <Ongaku> heheh
[02:28] <Ongaku> no probsies
[02:28] <Z> hey ppl, could any one of you vounlenteer to tell me where could I find a good chat room
[02:28] <Kaur> Because parking the head is an issue
[02:28] <h1st0> odzk: there are different ways of doing it using the nvidia-glx package or insalling the drivers from nvidia.com.  The problem with the later that is ifthe kernel changes you ahve to recompile the drivers.
[02:28] <jrib> Z: #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:28] <IdleOne> Z #UBUNTU-OFFTOPIC
[02:28] <Kaur> at least with the newer kernels
[02:28] <cjae_> jrib may I pm you or chat in another room as it quite busy in here
[02:28] <Z> danx
[02:28] <bascule> Z: #dump ;)
[02:29] <wabid> i still cant get my login screen to be the same resolution as my desktop
[02:29] <wabid> so annoying
[02:29] <jrib> cjae_: you can use #ubuntu-classroom if you want, but I don't know anything about enigmail
[02:29] <h1st0> newbuntu: also add the -rw option sry
[02:29] <jim> patrick_: keep reading, keep doing examples, keep thinking... you're not broken/retarted/whatever
[02:29] <Ongaku> he got it
[02:29] <Z> danx ppl,, u guys are so helping
[02:29] <odzk> h1st0: cool, ubuntu rocks, im starting to love, since i have my dialup working
[02:29] <nexttwo> how i find all the device that are connect??
[02:29] <Kaur> bascule: So... Do you happen do know how to make sure it parks the heads?
[02:29] <h1st0> newbuntu: sudo mount -rw -t ext3 /path/to/hdd/point /mnt/d
[02:29] <jrib> !gpg > cjae_ (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:29] <kkathman> wabid:  lol I tried about 3 different published solutions to get my login screen to be something other than that terrible brown -but to no avail
[02:29] <odzk> h1st0: any idea if i can use bluetooth networking for linux
[02:30] <bascule> well unless it is a very old drive I mean > 10 years the heads are parked
[02:30] <h1st0> odzk: yeah bluetooth support is built in
[02:30] <h1st0> !bluetooth > odzk
[02:30] <bascule> Kaur: ^^
[02:30] <odzk> h1st0: ohh ok
[02:30] <h1st0> odzk: read the private messages from ubotu
[02:30] <odzk> h1st0: i did
[02:30] <odzk> h1st0: thanks for the info
[02:30] <wabid> yea
[02:30] <odzk> h1st0: im reading the page right now
[02:30] <wabid> it either is too tall or too wide
[02:30] <Ongaku> that's odd
[02:30] <wabid> and if its too wide then my desktop is too wide also
[02:30] <bascule> Kaur: the heads are on a spring, the thing needs to be powered to un-park the heads
[02:31] <wabid> if its too tall my desktop gets the right rez
[02:31] <bascule> Kaur: no power,parked heads
[02:31] <bernier> Hi, where can I find a tut on making work my ati card with compiz?
[02:31] <h1st0> odzk: the easiest way is using the restricted manager like I said earlier.  but the page from ubotu has some other options
[02:31] <wabid> brb gotta restart x
[02:31] <newbuntu> sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /mnt/d worked!!!!
[02:31] <IdleOne> wabid: that sounds more like resolution and not a font issue
[02:31] <h1st0> odzk: also if you have more questions check out help.ubuntu.com  most of your first questions will be answered in teh wiki.
[02:31] <bernier> !compiz + ati | bernier
[02:31] <Kaur> bascule: I meant parking all the time... My mistake Have you heard about http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=508576&highlight=killing+hdd

[02:41] <stdin> OuT: there normally is a README file or an INSTALL file, read those
[02:41] <Flannel> OuT: it depends on the format.  All the tar.gz means is it's a bunch of files compressed together.  You could have a number of things within that.
[02:41] <OuT>  tar zxvf file.tar.gz ?
[02:41] <nexttwo> jrib: DVD drive's  /dev?
[02:42] <FFighter> OuT, yeah

[02:42] <jrib> nexttwo: check your /etc/fstab or put a dvd in and type 'mount'
[02:42] <OuT> i am a noobie =)
[02:42] <jim> that would be how you untar it. "install" is presently not understood because you're not telling what's in the tar

[02:52] <rpj8> kkathman: Probably Winboxes. I'm at a university, so it's a bit inconvenient to go around asking everyone
[02:52] <Flats> not OS
[02:52] <jrib> !software > Flats (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:53] <rsk> Flats: sf.net freshmeat.com
[02:53] <OuT> if i click on an other it doest do it :(
[02:53] <rsk> Flats: also packages.ubuntu.com
[02:53] <unagi> when i click to move a window i have to click to drop it, anyone know how to fix this?
[02:53] <jrib> OuT: read the private message from ubotu
[02:53] <kkathman> rpj8:  yeah - on those windows boxes admin has to right click the shares (folders) and set the sharing parameters
[02:53] <Flats> ty
[02:53] <IdleOne> keep this up and i'll get banned for being to unhelpful :)
[02:53] <kkathman> otherwise they wont show up
[02:53] <wastrel> Flats: look for what's in your synaptic
[02:53] <juannicolas> webmin works in 7.04?
[02:53] <juannicolas> im trying to install it
[02:54] <rpj8> kkathman: Yes, this I do know. So you're saying they won't show up in linux if they don't have shared folders?
[02:54] <rpj8> kkathman: But they will if you're in windows
[02:54] <kkathman> rpj8:  correct they wont and yes they "might" on a win network - another possibility is that samba has been disabled on the winboxes (unlikely tho)
[02:54] <Craleu> Hello i have a problem with my thumpdrive installation of ubuntu i installed it and it runs fine, but if my thumbdrive is not pluged in i get a grub error and i cant boot the system i belive it alted my MDB file i was wondering if anyone could assist me in fixings this problem
[02:55] <IdleOne> !grub > Craleu ( see msg from ubotu )

[02:56] <kkathman> rpj8:  yes that could be a prob also
[02:57] <CoCaInE> Could some1 help me make static connection between pcs?
[02:57] <Craleu> Idleone, i'm not sure this helped me :(
[02:57] <Craleu> i want to beable to boot my computer with out the jumpdrive (which holds linux)
[02:58] <IdleOne> Craleu: you need to fix your mbr so you need to install grub on the HD and not the jumpdrive
[02:58] <Craleu> Installing this on my HD will not effect my Windows OS and files?
[02:58] <benzs_s> do you need kubuntu-desktop installed to install amarok ?

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

[03:05] <Flannel> wabid: Well, file a bug with mozilla.  G.P. isn't in Ubuntu.
[03:05] <Kindredgarou> anyone?
[03:05] <IdleOne> wabid: #ubuntu-mozillateam might be able to help you
[03:05] <wabid> yea but i installed it from apt-get so i figured someone might be able to reproduce it
[03:05] <Flannel> wabid: irc.mozilla.org is the mozilla IRC channel too.

[03:36] <problematic> why is that? is that alright? theyre exctly the same
[03:37] <CoCaInE> guys my 2 pc see each other, how to i share internet
[03:37] <vas> anyone
[03:37] <BoKakSi> wubrgamer: simple as that, gaim will never be pidgin! ;)
[03:37] <CoCaInE> if eth0 is public ip, and eth2 is private
[03:37] <Jygzy-> i discovered a bug in wget
[03:37] <Xerostyle> Hi gang
[03:37] <Jygzy-> wget -r -l2 --no-parent -A "*.gif, *.jpg, *.jpeg, *.png"
[03:37] <nostotu> anyone have a recommendation on ISO mounting program for ubuntu?
[03:37] <JeremyToo> greetings Xerostyle
[03:37] <nomaS> hi somebody can help me with wireless? im using dell inspiron 1501
[03:37] <Jygzy-> the filter is desinged all wrong
[03:37] <k1gwb> This is going to sound silly, but is there a command that can be issued to toggle scroll lock on and off in linux? (rather than using the keyboard button)
[03:37] <Xerostyle> Is there anyone who would like to help me with my wireless.
[03:37] <dino_> BoKakSi: bug report?
[03:37] <Xerostyle> ?
[03:37] <BoKakSi> CoCaInE: litle knowledge of TCP/IP networking is crucial
[03:38] <JeremyToo> nomaS: are you using an open or a WEP/WPA-enabled access point?
[03:38] <JeremyToo> Xerostyle: I may be able to help
[03:38] <BoKakSi> dino_: yap, bug is a error in program
[03:38] <wmoxam> :(
[03:38] <JeremyToo> Can anyone help me get glx running with the ubuntu nvidia drivers?
[03:38] <matthew> how do you export your Evolution emails to mbox?
[03:38] <sixstrungout> Hi guys
[03:38] <sixstrungout> I really need some help.
[03:38] <wmoxam> I'm never buying a 'cheap' laptop again
[03:38] <wmoxam> it's nothing but problems
[03:38] <sixstrungout> First off, is there a local Linux mIRC client?
[03:39] <JeremyToo> sixstrungout: You can use Gaim, Xchat or Bitchx (command-line)
[03:39] <CoCaInE> BoKakSi: i tryed masquerade but it doestn work
[03:39] <preaction> sixstrungout, use xchat
[03:39] <nomaS> jeremytoo ; i think its WEP/WPA
[03:39] <BoKakSi> k1gwb: actualy there is key sequence for that
[03:39] <JeremyToo> nomaS: do you have the necessary security information?
[03:39] <BoKakSi> CoCaInE: it is a question of gateway
[03:39] <k1gwb> i found "setleds" but it says "Error reading current led setting. Maybe stdin in not a VT?" and I don't know what that measn
[03:39] <nunya> IdleOne: skaggeti - thanks for the tip! :)
[03:40] <sixstrungout> Thank you.
[03:40] <CoCaInE> BoKakSi:  what should i do then
[03:40] <nomaS> jeremytoo ; im at home
[03:40] <wmoxam> ugh, this is so annoying
[03:40] <wmoxam> the mouse works
[03:40] <sixstrungout> Thanks.
[03:40] <sixstrungout> I'm getting it now.
[03:40] <wmoxam> but it's just a blank screen
[03:40] <JeremyToo> nomaS: okay, cool.  What have you determined so far?
[03:40] <sixstrungout> Next question..
[03:40] <BoKakSi> k1gwb: try ctrl+s in console, to stop, i can't remember sequence to start
[03:40] <bigdaddy> OK, I have given up on a fully funtional mouse.
[03:40] <JeremyToo> BoKakSi:  ctrl-q restarts
[03:40] <dino_> what do i write to get vlc?
[03:40] <sixstrungout> I'm having nothing but problems installing GLIB, ergo I can't use Anjuta
[03:40] <BoKakSi> tny JeremyToo
[03:41] <drama1981> anybody know where i go for help with uue?
[03:41] <bigdaddy> I need to go buy a new mouse that works with ubuntu. Anyone have a recommendation?
[03:41] <JeremyToo> BoKakSi: any time :)
[03:41] <nomaS> jeremytoo: im connected from LAN , i want connect with WLAN but i dont think i dont have configured the chip
[03:41] <JeremyToo> drama1981: what're you trying to do?
[03:41] <k1gwb> Okay but I'm not really trying to start and stop scrolling, I'm using it toggle screen switching restrictions in synergy server
[03:41] <BoKakSi> CoCaInE: RTFM ;)
[03:41] <wmoxam> bigdaddy: any usb mouse should work just fine
[03:41] <scam> logitech JeremyToo
[03:41] <JeremyToo> bigdaddy: how many buttons do you need on your mouse?
[03:41] <nomaS> jeremytoo : i really dont know how to do it
[03:41] <Xerostyle> Ok. I have a compaq v6000 laptop. I was working on a tutorial, but I'm kinda stuck on the Wireless. It's a broadcom Card, 1390, if I remember correctly. I also need to learn how to get it to go into a higher resolution than 800x600
[03:41] <JeremyToo> k1gwb: howabout piping the command to "more", so you can view it one screen at a time?  e.g.  "dmesg | more"
[03:41] <sixstrungout> My make doesn't work right.
[03:42] <dino_> what do i write to get vlc?
[03:42] <sixstrungout> That or I don't know how to use it.
[03:42] <drama1981> JeremyToo i just installed ubuntu ultimate 1.5. but i cant even run the initial update. it says i need to do a partial upgrade so i click ok. then it says cant be authenticated
[03:42] <f0rtune> im trying to run gproftpd, but im having a problem, i can log in and everything, but i cant list the conctents of the directory with 'ls', anyone know why?
[03:42] <sensae> Hello
[03:42] <JeremyToo> nomaS: okay, you can actually do some of your wireless through the wireless networking control panel, which is the networking controlpanel.
[03:42] <Electrosys> Dino: you can use the add/remove programs to get Vlc.
[03:42] <bigdaddy> I have a "7" button mouse
[03:42] <dino_> Electrosys: where ?
[03:42] <k1gwb> I want to toggle scroll lock and and off with a button in my gnome panel... I'm not really trying to start and stop scrolling, I'm using it toggle screen switching restrictions in synergy server
[03:42] <JeremyToo> drama1981: can you open a terminal and run "sudo apt-get upgrade" ?
[03:42] <dino_> Electrosys: where in the program?
[03:42] <Electrosys> Applications/Add Remove from the desktop.
[03:42] <JeremyToo> k1gwb: gotcha.  Given that information, I'm in over my head :)
[03:42] <bigdaddy> left-right-middle-scroll up-scroll down-thumb-pinky
[03:43] <JeremyToo> bigdaddy: you may be able to program those additional buttons using xmodmap
[03:43] <drama1981> JeremyToo tried that too it stills holds all them packages back. 13 in all
[03:43] <dino_> Found iiitt!!!
[03:43] <dino_> :D
[03:43] <CoCaInE> BoKakSi: yea ? try to be newbie and listen to XX other person and any tell diffrent thing, and no1 teach ya, im tryin what pll say for 12 hours and u tell me im lazy
[03:43] <bigdaddy> tried it and errored out for some reason JeremyToo
[03:43] <JeremyToo> drama1981: I've never used ultimate ubuntu...that sounds peculiar.
[03:43] <sixstrungout> Okay..
[03:43] <k1gwb> but toggling scroll lock on/off for the system toggles that restriction...scroll lock is difficult to access on my keyboard though cause it's a 'secondary' key
[03:43] <Electrosys> Is there an easy way to get the feisty default termal to do regular old school ansi when connecting via telnet?
[03:43] <sixstrungout> I wrote this C program as a test..
[03:43] <drama1981> even tried add --allow-unauthenticated at the end but it did no good
[03:43] <sixstrungout> void main()
[03:43] <sixstrungout> {
[03:43] <sensae> I am running xubuntu, and installed the ubuntu-desktop package set to move over to gnome, after I restarted my system halts while starting, complaining "modprobe: FATAL: module raid1 not found." and after around 10 minutes loads busybox
[03:43] <JeremyToo> drama1981: can you /msg me with the exact error message
[03:43] <bigdaddy> My last effort was btnx. All I get htere is corrupt downloads from the site
[03:43] <sixstrungout> printf('hello world');
[03:44] <sixstrungout> }
[03:44] <snadge> Electrosys: you could try an export TERM=ansi ? :)
[03:44] <BoKakSi> CoCaInE: well, try to folow me then ;)
[03:44] <sixstrungout> When I tried to make it, it said it didn'st have instructions to make it???
[03:44] <drama1981> JeremyToo yea
[03:44] <JeremyToo> drama1981: thanks :)
[03:44] <CoCaInE> BoKakSi:  foLLow actually
[03:44] <BoKakSi> channel, I'm happy to see my xUbuntu working
[03:44] <JeremyToo> anybody ever seen where glxinfo says "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[03:44] <demonspork> woot
[03:44] <JeremyToo> ?
[03:45] <demonspork> konsole
[03:45] <JeremyToo> sixstrungout: when you type "make" it wants a Makefile
[03:45] <sensae> anyone know how I would go about fixing "modprobe: FATAL: module raid1 not found" or if I can?
[03:45] <JeremyToo> sixstrungout if you just want to compile an app, use gcc
[03:45] <Emperor886> Is there any way I can make Ubuntu not load up programs when start it? The movie player opens every time I start and so does the file browser it's annoying. =/
[03:45] <JeremyToo> drama1981: I'm apparently unable to msg, but thank you
[03:45] <BoKakSi> CoCaInE: well tny NOT (c) Borat
[03:46] <JeremyToo> Emperor886: you should be able to control that through the Sessions control panel under System->PReferences
[03:46] <dino_> anyone know how i can use my tv through a svideo cable?
[03:46] <demonspork> Emperor886, check System>Preferences>Sessions
[03:46] <sixstrungout> But how do I get gcc?
[03:46] <JeremyToo> sixstrungout:  sudo apt-get install gcc
[03:46] <Flannel> sixstrungout: you're probably interested in the build-essential package
[03:46] <Emperor886> JeremyToo: Thanks.
[03:46] <BoKakSi> dino_ and others; all questions are answered (almost all) on google
[03:46] <JeremyToo> sixstrungout: then compile with:  gcc myfile.c -o myfile.out
[03:46] <JeremyToo> BoKakSi: yeah, not my glx problem
[03:47] <demonspork> ASK GOOGLE! google knows everthing
[03:47] <BoKakSi> JeremyToo: did you fill a report on list?
[03:47] <JeremyToo> BoKakSi: no, I haven't.  I was hoping to find someone more knowledgeable than me on here...
[03:47] <drama1981> JeremyToo i have screenshots of the errors if you want to see
[03:48] <sensae> How would I fix "modprobe: FATAL: Module raid1 not found" on startup? It happened after installing the ubuntu-desktop packages, system was working fine before a restart.
[03:48] <JeremyToo> drama1981: yes, can you /msg me the URL?
[03:48] <BoKakSi> JeremyToo: all knowledge you need are on maling lists, that's where programers are
[03:48] <sixstrungout> Is said no input files
[03:48] <JeremyToo> BoKakSi: I've googled this extensively.
[03:48] <BoKakSi> JeremyToo: and they know  answer
[03:48] <JeremyToo> sixstrungout: is the C program file in the current directory?
[03:48] <drama1981> JeremyToo yes im uploading them right now. will take a few mins
[03:48] <splunk1983> Its so freakin complicate my head hurts when I try and understand the whole fucking problem
[03:49] <sixstrungout> Yes.
[03:49] <BoKakSi> JeremyToo: debian lists or ubuntu list, or closed lists
[03:49] <sixstrungout> Oh wait.
[03:49] <JeremyToo> splunk1983: what's the problem?
[03:49] <BoKakSi> JeremyToo: let's pvt your problem
[03:49] <JeremyToo> BoKakSi: I can't msg, I'm not registered :/
[03:49] <wastrel> JeremyToo: fyi the right way to install the compiler is to install the build-essential metapackage
[03:49] <JeremyToo> oh, here we go
[03:49] <BoKakSi> JeremyToo: why not register?
[03:50] <riddlebox> what do you need in order to download and play flash videos?
[03:50] <BoKakSi> JeremyToo: i'm here for first time in my life
[03:50] <Electrosys> snadge: "export TERM=ansi" didn't do anything, but thanks . know I can learn about export which I didn't know about.
[03:50] <BoKakSi> JeremyToo: and that's a 37 years
[03:50] <IdleOne> !flash > riddlebox
[03:50] <sixstrungout> Still didn't work.
[03:50] <BoKakSi> JeremyToo: and i register
[03:50] <Electrosys> !flash | riddlebox
[03:50] <ubotu> riddlebox: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[03:51] <sixstrungout> Now it built a file that I can't run.
[03:51] <JeremyToo> there we go
[03:51] <splunk1983> http://www.mathbin.net/14029
[03:51] <sixstrungout> And when I use make from Anjuta, it says no target specified, etc.
[03:51] <wastrel> sixstrungout: did you install build-essential?
[03:51] <snadge> Electrosys: ansi should be interpreted by default.. at least it is with gnome-terminal, xterm and rxvt?
[03:51] <sensae> does anyone have any hint or clue how I could fix "FATAL: module raid1 not found" ?
[03:51] <JeremyToo> wastrel: thanks for the info
[03:52] <drama1981> JeremyToo done
[03:52] <BoKakSi> sensae: insmod raid1 ?
[03:52] <Electrosys> snadge: Its doing it for the most part, I have colors and most all of the characters, it seems the it displays the wrong extended characters.
[03:52] <drama1981> one is from the update manager other from terminal
[03:53] <sensae> BoKakSi: Not doing a thing, all I have is a Busybox shell, the system won't boot :/
[03:53] <f0rtune> im trying to run gproftpd, but im having a problem, i can log in and everything, but i cant list the contents of the directory with 'ls', anyone know why?
[03:53] <tripzero> okay, google isn't giving me the info I need, does anyone know what package controls what resolution the live cd displays?
[03:53] <sixstrungout> Hmm..
[03:54] <sixstrungout> Now it worked.
[03:54] <IdleOne> tripzero: xserver-xorg
[03:54] <sixstrungout> Okay, so does anyone know how to install the GTK and GLIB libraries?
[03:54] <IdleOne> !fixres | tripzero
[03:54] <ubotu> tripzero: 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
[03:54] <sixstrungout> Why is there no repository for these?
[03:54] <sauvin> Is FAT32 on 320GB volumes generally subject to corruption under linux?
[03:54] <Flats> how do I remove kernel modules?
[03:54] <wastrel> Flats: sudo rmmod
[03:54] <tripzero> ubotu, not using gdm and its a respun version of ubuntu that's only 300mb
[03:55] <tripzero> I think i removed one to many packages
[03:55] <cchance> How can i convert ubuntu 7.04 to ubuntu 6.06
[03:55] <cowbud> sauvin: generally you don't want to have FAT32 that large.
[03:55] <Electrosys> sauvin: Why can't you use NTFS? are you using a really old windows Os?
[03:55] <cchance> So that way i can install my lucent win modem
[03:55] <cowbud> sauvin: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/reskit/core/fncc_fil_tvjq.mspx?mfr=true
[03:55] <sauvin> No, I was hoping for a large volume that could be shared between linux, windows and macintosh.
[03:56] <rodg> I have two internet connections in separate locations. One is a comcast connection and the other is a wireless connection that is not routable, 10.x....
[03:56] <ctguy> greetings, i just started using ubuntu..
[03:56] <rodg> I know some of those "gotomypc" programs don't require any ports to be forwarded. Is there any way to tunnel back through say an ssh connection to access my computer that is not routable?
[03:56] <sauvin> At the moment, though, the ONLY thing using that drive is linux.
[03:56] <JeremyToo> rodg: ssh -R
[03:56] <ctguy> does anyone here know how to install vmware tools on feisty?
[03:56] <JeremyToo> rodg: for remote port forwarding
[03:56] <cchance> !convert
[03:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about convert - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:56] <Electrosys> sauvin: Well you can't put ubuntu on fat32 i dont think you will have to have multiple partitions.
[03:56] <sixstrungout> Does anyone know how to install GLIB?
[03:56] <cowbud> sixstrungout: why don't we start with what you are trying to do..
[03:57] <wastrel> sixstrungout: did you install build-essential?
[03:57] <sauvin> It's an external drive.
[03:57] <Electrosys> sixstrungout: or use google and search for "install GLIB tutorial" or just "install GLIB"..
[03:57] <sensae> If I want to switch from one WM to another, what would be the easiest way to without reinstalling?
[03:57] <wastrel> sixstrungout: libc6-dev otherwise
[03:57] <cchance> is it at all possible
[03:57] <snadge> Electrosys: thats a font issue.. try changing your font to something like system, or one which is compatible with extended ascii charset
[03:57] <wastrel> but that should come with build-essential
[03:57] <tripzero> IdleOne: the livecd is ignoring me when I tell it to display a certain resolution
[03:57] <rodg> Thanks JeremyToo, I will read the manual and give it a try next time I have a chance.
[03:58] <sixstrungout> cowbud.. I'm trying to make GUI programs in Anjuta.
[03:58] <IdleOne> tripzero: did you try this link http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:58] <cowbud> sixstrungout: ok so are you familiar with the command line?
[03:59] <Sunk> hello
[03:59] <logreeval> Hello, this really isnt ubuntu, but i am running ubuntu so anyways...I got a case fan for my computer, but when i try to screw it in, the screws dont go, i cant get any further than the first like mm or 2
[03:59] <sixstrungout> cowbud: somewhat.
[03:59] <sixstrungout> Why don't we go private?
[03:59] <wabid> can anyone help/explain this - http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/857/screenshotvt1.png
[03:59] <cchance> How can i convert my 7.04 to 6.06
[03:59] <cowbud> sixstrungout: well aptitude search libglib will give you a bunch of options
[03:59] <cowbud> you probably want to install libglib-dev
[04:00] <Xerostyle> I was using http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=458164&highlight=HP+compaq+V6000 this tutorial, and I can't get the bcm43xx-fwcutter to work
[04:00] <omgoose> logreeval: what size fan, and where are you trying to screw it
[04:00] <sensae> How would I fix "modprobe: FATAL: Module raid1 not found" on startup? It happened after installing the ubuntu-desktop packages, system was working fine before a restart.
[04:00] <mistform> gah
[04:00] <mistform> stupid nvidia
[04:01] <Sunk> Someone please help. I installed ubuntu from a cd and now I need to boot to another cd.  For some reason it's not working. I'm getting a disk error when booting as well "Smart failure predicted on harddisk 0:
[04:01] <logreeval> omgoose: it is a 80mm fan on the back of the case. the screws fit the hole on the case, but not on the fan itself
[04:01] <JeremyToo> wabid: what's the problem?
[04:01] <sixstrungout> cowbud:  I got this error message:
[04:01] <sixstrungout> E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)

[04:01] <JeremyToo> Sunk: I'm afraid your HD may have just failed.
[04:01] <Sunk> I'vealready set up the bios correctly
[04:01] <Sunk> it stills works tough
[04:01] <JeremyToo> SMART failures are bad juju, Sunk
[04:02] <BlindeApe> anyone know how to make it that when i click on my desktop it minimizes or hides all open windows? sorta like how macs are
[04:02] <JeremyToo> And since the CDboot isn't looking good, it may be the IDE controller, Sunk
[04:02] <omgoose> logreeval: so your putting the fan on the inside, so i assume you are screwing it from the outside?
[04:02] <wabid> JeremyToo, look at gran paradiso
[04:02] <JeremyToo> wabid: hey, that's neat.
[04:02] <logreeval> omgoose: yes i am
[04:02] <cchance> !7.04 to 6.06
[04:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 7.04 to 6.06 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:02] <Sunk> Howcould I go about fixing this Jeremytoo? thanks btw
[04:02] <sixstrungout> It also says unable to lock download directory.
[04:02] <sixstrungout> wtf??
[04:02] <JeremyToo> wabid: what happens when you highlight the bigger window and type ctrl -
[04:03] <Electrosys> snadge: Thanks for your help, I will try that. I have to do something not computer related now... see ya later.
[04:03] <wabid> thats just text
[04:03] <wabid> not images/toolbars
[04:03] <wabid> the toolbars are messed up too
[04:03] <IdleOne> cchance: you can edit sources.list back to edgy but not recommended. if you do make sure to backup first
[04:03] <JeremyToo> Sunk: you could try your hardware on a machine with a known good IDE controller
[04:03] <cchance> no
[04:03] <Sunk> tanks JeremyToo will do
[04:03] <cchance> i need everything back to daper
[04:03] <cchance> the kernel sources everything
[04:03] <omgoose> cchance: how come?
[04:03] <cchance> for my modem to work
[04:04] <cchance> it likes the 6.06 kernel
[04:04] <IdleOne> cchance: ok edit it back to dapper but again not recommened . better off doing a fresh install
[04:04] <cchance> if my disk for 6.06 would work id have it
[04:04] <cchance> but something wont give the disk is cleat of imperfections but the computer hates it
[04:04] <unagi> is there a network manager that allows you to refresh the wireless list?
[04:05] <IdleOne> cchance: so download 6.06 and burn
[04:05] <cchance> O
[04:05] <cchance> not on this dialup
[04:05] <sensae> anyone know how I would go about fixing "modprobe: FATAL: module raid1 not found" or if I can?
[04:05] <cchance> and its 600 MB
[04:05] <flacom> hi... i'm trying to mount a ntfs partition...mount -t ntfs /dev/hda2 /home/ubuntu/win/ but this dont work... any ideas?
[04:06] <logreeval> omgoose: are they usually hard to screw in?
[04:06] <sixstrungout> Okay, why does aptitude keep saying "resource temporarily unavailable?"
[04:06] <JordiGH> If I plug in a wireless pcmcia card, lspcmcia doesn't show it. This has happened with another card. Does this mean the pcmcia slot isn't working? All that shows up is some "yenta_cardbus" thing.
[04:06] <IdleOne> sixstrungout: server may be down at the momment or they might be uploading some updates/upgrades
[04:06] <omgoose> logreeval: usually a little bit, because the fan doesnt have a thread
[04:06] <BlindeApe> >	anyone know how to make it that when i click on my desktop it minimizes or hides all open windows? sorta like how macs are
[04:06] <omgoose> logreeval: you sorta make it as it screws in
[04:06] <cowbud> sixstrungout: are you running synaptic or anything else that involves installing packages?
[04:07] <mistform> BlindeApe, have you tried clicking the Show Desktop icon on the bottom left hand corner of the screen?
[04:07] <IdleOne> BlindeApe: the window in the bottom left corner isnt good enough?
[04:07] <cchance> How can i atlease make the kernel the same as a 6.06
[04:07] <logreeval> omgoose: i guess i will just try a different screwdriver
[04:07] <BlindeApe> mistform: yea i have =P but id want it this way if its possible
[04:07] <wastrel> BlindeApe: you can add a thingy to the panel
[04:07] <logreeval> omgoose: thanks, cya
[04:07] <wastrel> BlindeApe: also ctrl-alt d
[04:07] <omgoose> logreeval: no worries
[04:07] <dwestendorf> my system has a broken kernel update, and trying to fix it using synaptic doesn't work. anyone know how to fix it?
[04:08] <BlindeApe> ok,hmm, is there a command for show desktop?
[04:08] <IdleOne> dwestendorf: any errors?
[04:08] <sensae> does anyone have any hint or clue how I could fix "FATAL: module raid1 not found" ?

[04:09] <IdleOne> dwestendorf: give us the url
[04:10] <dwestendorf> one second...
[04:10] <JeremyToo> Sunk: it's a laptop?  Is it still under warranty?

[04:10] <Sunk> nope
[04:10] <dwestendorf> http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/38508/
[04:10] <Sunk> JeremyToo:no its not on warranty
[04:10] <JeremyToo> Sunk: this is bad news:  if the IDE controller is dead, then pretty much you're in the market for a new laptop
[04:10] <cchance> does ubuntu still ship out 6.06 CD's?
[04:10] <ctguy> Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the start bar on ubuntu?
[04:10] <JeremyToo> Sunk: you can try replacing the CD-ROM -- that could be it, too
[04:11] <Sunk> JeremyToo: thanks so much/. You have been so helpful
[04:11] <ctguy> so while im chatting here i peress??? f3 or something to get to the bar? fore example.. alt tab is for switching programs
[04:11] <Elda> Where is grub.conf stored?
[04:11] <riotkittie> cchance: i believe so
[04:11] <sixpence> cowbud: ?
[04:11] <riotkittie> brb. going to try wpa2.   again.
[04:11] <cchance> if they do i dont see where to get it
[04:12] <JeremyToo> Elda:  The boot menu is in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:12] <Elda> Ah okey, thanks xD
[04:12] <IdleOne> cchance: it would take atleast 4 weeks to get it via mail. dialup is slow but not that slow
[04:12] <wastrel> BlindeApe: i only know ctrl alt d
[04:12] <v2os> Why do all the Linux distros refuse to use things like autopackage? (it makes no sense)
[04:13] <sensae> Anyone know how I can get my system to boot? I'm getting module raid1 not found at boot
[04:13] <Elda> Because apparantly the package manager downloaded something for my kernel but it reset the options Id specified in the menu.lst the first time :(
[04:13] <cchance> MINE IS!!! ::PP
[04:13] <IdleOne> BlindeApe: ctrl alt d goes up and down
[04:13] <cchance> Belive me it took me 2 months to download the server
[04:13] <dwestendorf> any ideas anyone?
[04:13] <Gutworth> can i uses debian etch packages with 7.04?
[04:13] <Xerostyle> gah
[04:13] <wastrel> Gutworth: try not to
[04:14] <IdleOne> Gutworth: doesnt ubuntu have what you need already packaged?
[04:14] <Flannel> Gutworth: Debian and Ubuntu are not binary compatable.  You could use debian source packages though.  In theory.
[04:14] <Xerostyle> I need whatever was at http://boardlink.googlepages.com/wl_apsta.o
[04:14] <BlindeApe> wastrel: foudn wmctrl
[04:14] <drama1981> Gutworth some but its not the easiest thing to do. you may have to chase donw the depenencies which in turn could break something else
[04:14] <Gutworth> Well, I want emacs
[04:14] <IdleOne> !emacs
[04:14] <ubotu> Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) | Terminal-based editors: vi/vim, emacs, and nano (user-friendly). | HTML/CSS editors: !html | Programming: !code
[04:15] <Gutworth> but sarge is ok?
[04:15] <wastrel> emacs is in ubuntu
[04:15] <wastrel> no sarge isn't.  use ubuntu packages
[04:15] <IdleOne> Gutworth: no it isnt as it might break ubuntu
[04:15] <HealthyElija2> I need help with Synergy, I installed it with synaptic as well as quick synergy, If i type synergy in term nothing happens if i type quicksynergy in i get a whole bunch of stuff, will anyone take a look at my print out <<-- NOOB here
[04:15] <Flannel> Gutworth: emacs is in Ubuntu
[04:15] <sensae> Does anyone know even why I'm getting the error message "module raid1 not found" ?
[04:15] <Gutworth> I'll just do it from the source then
[04:15] <gabrielmonnerat> somebody can help me with configuration wireless in ubuntu?
[04:16] <HealthyElija2> I cannot get quicksynergy to connect to my xp client, i want synergy on ubuntu to be server
[04:16] <wastrel> Gutworth: why not just use the ubuntu emacs?
[04:16] <IdleOne> Gutworth: sudo apt-get install emacs
[04:16] <Gutworth> I know Ubuntu has emacs, but I know I'm going to need something from Debian eventually...
[04:16] <Gutworth> maybe I'll just switch to debian
[04:16] <mneptok> Gutworth: why?
[04:16] <wastrel> debian's good too
[04:16] <mneptok> Gutworth: what makes you so sure?
[04:16] <wastrel> just have to wait longer between releases
[04:16] <Xerostyle> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38511/ heres the error for anyone who can help me
[04:16] <HealthyElija2> what does "apt" mean?
[04:17] <wastrel> but i tell you what, i'd avoid installing emacs from source if i had a choice :] 
[04:17] <IdleOne> Gutworth: thats like saying I know I'm going to die so i might as well kill myself now. ( well not exactly like that but you get my point )
[04:17] <omgoose> !apt
[04:17] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[04:17] <Gutworth> because apt is a fantastic way to stay on top of updates and Ubuntu doesn't have ALL 20 thousand packages
[04:18] <mneptok> Gutworth: that makes no sense
[04:18] <IdleOne> Gutworth: your right ubuntu has over 23000
[04:18] <wastrel> no it's true that debian has some packages that ubuntu doesn't
[04:18] <badraa> how to search anything by terminal?
[04:18] <twoshadetod> whats the command to check how much space you have left on your harddrive
[04:18] <IdleOne> wastrel: only because ubuntu has something else that does the same thing
[04:18] <mneptok> twoshadetod: df -h
[04:18] <nubuntu> ls
[04:18] <sixstrungout> Grr
[04:18] <nubuntu> yo
[04:18] <nubuntu> i need help, i just installed nubuntu
[04:18] <sixstrungout> I'm getting so frustrated with Anjuta
[04:18] <wastrel> but i think it'd be rare that you find one :] 
[04:18] <nubuntu> but i dont know how can i format the partitions
[04:18] <twoshadetod> mneptok, thanks alot
[04:18] <badraa> how to search anything by terminal?
[04:19] <badraa> how to search anything by terminal?
[04:19] <sixstrungout> Aptitude says the packages I need are installed, but Anjuta doesn't.
[04:19] <badraa> how to search anything by terminal?
[04:19] <dopper> I created an image of my ubuntu partition with acronis true image and then restored it later (to /dev/sda7) and pointed grub (which works fine with splash screen and menu.lst installed on /dev/sda5) to boot the ubuntu partition on /dev/sda7 but it's not booting. Why? sudo vol_id -tluL /dev/sda1 reports the same UUID as I used prior to creating the image
[04:19] <mneptok> badraa: please don't repeat
[04:19] <nubuntu> and when im trying to do fdisk /dev/hda it says that cannot be instaled
[04:19] <Gutworth> the problem with Debian is all the fiddling around one has to do with X
[04:19] <IdleOne> badraa: apt-cache search searchstring
[04:19] <badraa> ok
[04:19] <twoshadetod> badraa, find, search? do they work?
[04:19] <badraa> i forget it
[04:19] <sixstrungout> btw, anyone know where aptitude puts the source?
[04:19] <badraa> sudo apt ....
[04:19] <twoshadetod> badraa, locate? i don't know anymore
[04:19] <badraa> no locate
[04:19] <wastrel> locate & find are both good
[04:20] <nubuntu> how could i format my disks
[04:20] <sauvin> locate assumes a recent updatedb
[04:20] <nubuntu> fdisk /dev/hda1 dosent work
[04:20] <sauvin> nubuntu, forget the '1' part of hda1
[04:20] <nubuntu> tried
[04:20] <Gutworth> why does Ubuntu put the commented debian sarge repository in the sources.list if they're not compatible
[04:20] <mneptok> nubuntu: just use GParted
[04:20] <nubuntu> kk
[04:20] <Flannel> Gutworth: it doesnt
[04:20] <mneptok> Gutworth: we don't?
[04:20] <riotkittie> sigh. i miss feisty. :|
[04:21] <wastrel> i have feisty
[04:21] <wastrel> did you upgrade to gusty?
[04:21] <IdleOne> Gutworth: if you upgrade from sarge to ubuntu yes then the sarge repo is commented out but a default install does not have it
[04:21] <Wolf23> hi all
[04:21] <Ashfire908> where are the dns server ips stored on ubuntu?
[04:21] <riotkittie> i have feisty too.
[04:21] <Gutworth> on the bottom of mine: #Debian sources deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/... sarge
[04:21] <Wolf23> somebody help me please
[04:21] <mneptok> Ashfire908: /etc/resolv.conf
[04:21] <HealthyElija2> Here is what I get when i run quicksynergy i get nothing from "synergy" btw, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38512/
[04:21] <mneptok> Ashfire908: same place as most other Linux distros
[04:21] <Gutworth> i just installed; i didn't put it there
[04:21] <Flannel> Gutworth: That's not there in a default install of Ubuntu.  Did you use some third party tool?
[04:22] <wastrel> Ashfire908: that gets overwritten if you use dhcp
[04:22] <sixstrungout> Does anyone know how to use Anjuta?
[04:22] <Gutworth> i used the shipit CD
[04:22] <Flannel> Gutworth: which Ubuntu did you install?
[04:22] <wastrel> is there a method to prevent that?
[04:22] <Gutworth> feisty Ubuntu
[04:22] <wastrel> besides making it non-writable
[04:22] <twoshadetod> What is the easiest way to convert .avi's (and other formats) to DVD?
[04:23] <mneptok> twoshadetod: http://amazon.com
[04:23] <badraa> ok, tnx now i can
[04:23] <drama1981> twoshadetod i use convert x to dvd under wine
[04:23] <mneptok> twoshadetod: it's *really* euasy to place an order for a DVD at Amazon
[04:23] <newbuntu> is dapper drake partitioner worthless? I get illegal block messages after installed and restarted...
[04:23] <Gutworth> i'll look again on the liveCD
[04:23] <Gutworth> thanks for the help
[04:23] <drama1981> idk about a native linux app though
[04:23] <Wolf23> when i open a file with ark it shows this message,the utility unrar is not in your path, please install it or contact your system administrator
[04:23] <Gutworth> ./quit
[04:23] <twoshadetod> drama1981, i was thinking of going the wine route, i'd probally go svcd2dvd + tmpgenc - if that is still good, haven't done it in a while
[04:23] <mistform> newbuntu, I can't really decide if it's worthless or not. I had 2 HDDs die while I was running dapper
[04:24] <newbuntu> I let the install from live cd pick it's own sizing...
[04:24] <sauvin> Is there any reason not to format an entire 320GB drive with a single ext3 partition?
[04:24] <mistform> newbuntu, but I can't really say if it was from the partitioner or it was just my laptop
[04:24] <IdleOne> !unrar | Wolf23
[04:24] <ubotu> Wolf23: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[04:24] <drama1981> idk twoshadetod never tried it. ive always used convert x.
[04:24] <slackern> wastrel, im not sure i've never tried it myself but maybe you can remove the 'request domain-name-servers' entry from /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf maybe it won't touch it then
[04:24] <mistform> sauvin, because you need a swap partition and possibly a boot partition (depending on your needs0
[04:24] <newbuntu> if I run a mounted from live, I can use it for storage for now...
[04:24] <twoshadetod> mneptok, does amazon sell warcraft pvp movies on dvd?
[04:25] <sensae> Anyone know how I can get my system to boot? I'm getting module raid1 not found at boot
[04:25] <sauvin> The drive is external, for data only.
[04:25] <mneptok> .rar is proprietary crap. C-R-A-P.
[04:25] <mneptok> twoshadetod: no idea. i have a girlfriend. ;)
[04:25] <IdleOne> mneptok: :)
[04:25] <twoshadetod> mneptok, well spoken! I do to, i guess just longer than you've hard yours!
[04:26] <twoshadetod> mneptok, *had...after  while, they really lose their novelty, trust me
[04:26] <mistform> newbuntu, I don't understand. You are mounting a liveCD .iso??
[04:26] <riotkittie> hahahha. best. answer. ever.
[04:26] <mneptok> twoshadetod: nice to know you can keep that magic fresh :)
[04:27] <limp> hi, I got a problem reading dvds on feisty fawn, I installed movie player, but it still tells me I need plugin, VLC won't open dvd either
[04:27] <twoshadetod> mneptok, agreed - but they got an exspansion coming out soon...oh you meant. hahaha
[04:27] <HellGrazer> I have a Plextor 712SA SATA DVD and Feisty or Gutsy won't boot the liveCD with it.  I tried an older Slackware 9 cd and it recognizes it fine which leads me to believe that it's a kernel issue.  Anyone have any luck with something similar?
[04:27] <IdleOne> !dvd | limp
[04:27] <ubotu> limp: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[04:27] <mistform> twoshadetod, why would you want to buy a PVP DVD from amazon? just go watch them on youtube
[04:28] <IdleOne> !offtopic | mistform
[04:28] <ubotu> mistform: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:28] <riotkittie> hm. if only wireless was so simple under feisty. i guess i am going to boot back into it and try the kernel compile thing again because it's either that or clean my apartmen.t
[04:28] <patrick_> hello, is it possible to install a .rpm file under ubuntu?
[04:28] <twoshadetod> mistform, just responding to advice to goto amazon for dvd's when i need info on converting avi to dvd, it wouldn;t work anyways unless they somehow had me on dvd..i just want to give a buddy a dvd of some pvp
[04:28] <mistform> anyone here know how to revert back to my old nvidia drivers so I can go back to playing around in X?
[04:28] <mneptok> riotkittie: what's the problem?
[04:28] <riotkittie> patrick_: you'll need !alien
[04:28] <Electrosys> Somehow I got my desktop zoomed in. I am using ubuntu 7.04 and compiz-core with wobbly windows and the cube. can anyone help me get this vew back to normal?
[04:28] <IdleOne> !alien | patrick_ not recommended
[04:28] <ubotu> patrick_ not recommended: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[04:28] <mneptok> patrick_: .rpm for what?
[04:28] <mistform> patrick_, install alien. it's an .rpm to .deb converter
[04:29] <IdleOne> patrick_: what do you need?
[04:29] <cowbud> mistform: go to /var/cache/apt/archives and ls | grep nvidia the older one should be in there
[04:29] <patrick_> winamp
[04:29] <IdleOne> patrick_: use xmms
[04:29] <mneptok> mistform: grep nv /etc/X11/xorg.conf  <--- wha'ppens?
[04:29] <patrick_> o and adobe flash
[04:29] <newbuntu> so, live cd has no compiler?
[04:29] <Electrosys> ahhh yesss. ctrl+alt+- (the minus character)
[04:30] <TUXedomember> hey do i need synergy on all my comps?
[04:30] <mneptok> patrick_: sudo apt-get install xmms flashplugin-nonfree
[04:30] <wastrel> newbuntu: ubuntu installs without a compiler by default
[04:30] <mistform> mneptok, I'm using a Geforce2 MX 400 card. it's an old legacy AGP card.
[04:30] <riotkittie> mneptok: i have a dlink usb adapter with the ralink chipset, and apparently, the only/best way to get wpa2 going is with rt2x00 driver, and trying to build that results in a message that's all like "hold your horses, lil' lady. wlan card support's not enabled in your kernel"
[04:30] <sixstrungout> Can somebody who knows Anjuta please PM me?
[04:30] <wabid> what version of the ati driver is installed when i get it from the restricted drivers manager
[04:30] <mneptok> riotkittie: oh, ewww
[04:30] <mneptok> riotkittie: no PCI or Cardbus options?
[04:30] <wabid> is it 8.40.4
[04:30] <ddonky> what's a good program to browse and download usenet binaries?
[04:30] <newbuntu> so trying to compile something while using live cd is impossible?
[04:31] <mneptok> ddonky: sudo apt-get install pan
[04:31] <patrick_> i think im just going to switch over to FC5
[04:31] <wastrel> newbuntu: try installing build-essential
[04:31] <Flannel> newbuntu: of course not.  You just have to install build-essential
[04:31] <ddonky> mneptok - thanks
[04:31] <IdleOne> Electrosys: haha that is cool
[04:31] <newbuntu> by synaptec?
[04:31] <mneptok> ddonky: Pan is a *killer* NNTP client
[04:31] <HellGrazer> ddonky: klibido works good too.. I've experienced memory problems with pan.
[04:31] <wastrel> killer
[04:31] <bobzledz> anyone here a dog owner? im making a new site for dogs and wonder if anyone would like to join the community? http://k9base.com
[04:31] <mneptok> HellGrazer: let's not install all the KDE libraries unless we have to ;)
[04:32] <mistform> mneptok http://sh.nu/p/23166
[04:32] <mistform> mneptok, that is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[04:32] <wastrel> snoutbook
[04:32] <ddonky> HellGrazer - ok, i have a older pc, PIII 1ghz 512mb ram
[04:32] <CyberMad> i have problem with my ubuntu 7.04 this morning, i can access /mnt, but i can not access /mnt/document, i can not do ls.. no respond, and if i try open it.. it hang. Well, the /mnt/document is mount of windows shared folder
[04:32] <riotkittie> nope, its usb or nothing. unless i want to part with sound, graphics, or my 300GB hard drive. :|
[04:32] <CyberMad> do you know what is the problem
[04:32] <mneptok> mistform: Driver "nvidia" - should be changed to - Driver "nv"
[04:33] <mistform> mneptok, yes. that is the idea. how might one go about changing that???
[04:33] <sensae> does anyone have any hint or clue how I could fix "FATAL: module raid1 not found" ? I got the system to mount my RAID1 array from a liveCD but I'm not sure what's keeping it from booting
[04:33] <mneptok> mistform: edit the file and change it
[04:33] <HealthyElija2> Has anyone in this room installed Synergy?
[04:33] <mneptok> sensae: you have a chicken/egg problem
[04:34] <HellGrazer> ddonky: reason I say that is.. you mentioned binaries.. most binary groups have huge amounts of articles in them.. pan will use up all your ram and crash after about 1 million headers.. klibido doesn't seem to have that problem.
[04:34] <sensae> HealthyElija2: I had it working 30 minutes ago before my system stopped booting
[04:34] <sensae> mneptok: How so?
[04:34] <mneptok> sensae: you are trying to load a RAID driver off a RAID array. see the problem?
[04:34] <mistform> mneptok, I cannot go into gedit. I have a black terminal screen. No X, nothing
[04:34] <sensae> mneptok: Yes, but the RAID driver is compiled into the kernel and it was working fine, all I did was install ubuntu-desktop
[04:34] <mistform> mneptok, basically I need a command from terminal to change it back.
[04:35] <HealthyElija2> sensae: that is a bummer
[04:35] <mneptok> mistform: sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:35] <HealthyElija2> sensae: how long have you been a synergy user
[04:35] <netham45> does anyone know a program I can use to take a screenshot? The one that is on ubuntu doesn't get all of my screen, it only captures the top corner.
[04:35] <sensae> HealthyElija2: Today
[04:35] <sensae> lol
[04:35] <mneptok> sensae: so it boots completely but fails to load X?
[04:35] <newbuntu> I set up synergy as client once

[04:44] <akaedu> 
[04:44] <newbuntu> ya, needs command paramaters too
[04:45] <badraa> but now how to use SFTP/SCP
[04:45] <sensae> HealthyElija2: synergys -f --config /etc/synergy.conf
[04:45] <Optimus55> i need to download the python compiler so i can run an automatic wireless installer for broadcom 43xx wireless, but i cant get python cus i cant get online... :S

[04:46] <Optimus55> i kept my dual boot because i thought i might have problems with ubuntu...
[04:46] <lain> sometimes not selecting kanji, randomly deleting things, or not showing me what's being typed
[04:46] <newbuntu> do you have a ethernet card? or a usb/wireless?
[04:47] <HealthyElija2> sensae: When I copy that default config text it gives me all the white space before the text , is this right?
[04:47] <lain> i also kept a dual boot...
[04:47] <HealthyElija2> sensae: should i remove the text
[04:47] <RequinB4> basically, I'm suspecting it is gaim and mIRC that is the problem - port 80 works fine and since i'm on this client it doesn' tseem to be my firewall - but the programs won't connect to any sever
[04:47] <badraa> hey gues, how to create ftp server on ubuntu ?

[04:49] <RequinB4> mistform: Or i have read that compiz fusion has beryl integrated
[04:51] <Tshering> is there a repository somewhere out there with deb's iceweasel that could be used until ubuntu?
[04:51] <mistform> ok
[04:51] <mistform> it's a beryl cube
[04:51] <mistform> RequinB4, it's a beryl cube theme. I am looking on gnome-look.org right now
[04:52] <badraa> hey gues
[04:52] <badraa> why don't replay
[04:52] <balistic22> Hey i have a question
[04:52] <HealthyElija2> sensae: is that the best place to put teh cinfig file in the .etc folder?
[04:52] <alfermp> RequinB4 this is the link http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/enable_compizfusion_in_ubuntu_feisty/
[04:53] <Optimus56> hey can anyone tell me how to download python-gtk2 so i can install it offline?
[04:53] <RequinB4> mistform:  Yes, I use it - it's good for eye candy and for organization - just be careful on the install to know exactly what your system hardware is
[04:53] <Optimus56> i think i did something like that b4, download from the repositories to a file offline...
[04:53] <balistic22> is it possible to install ubuntu as a dualboot with winxp and if i wanted to get rid of it would i be able to do it with out reformatting my whole system
[04:53] <mistform> RequinB4, ok. THen you are going to help me install it LOL
[04:53] <jebblue> mistform: beryl is a 3d window manager not a theme
[04:53] <RequinB4> alfermp:  I was answering a question
[04:53] <heguru> balistic22: yes to both question
[04:53] <lain> alright well i guess i'll ask again in a while..
[04:53] <HealthyElija2> i says i do not have permission to write to the ETC folder, why is this, how to pvercome?
[04:54] <Libra102> hello
[04:54] <mistform> yes, well, it may not be the jargoned "theme" but it really aesthetically is...
[04:54] <mzuverink> any idea what i need to change in proftp to get it to allow root logins?
[04:54] <balistic22> heguru, right now im running ubuntu live could i just install it now and like you said i could be able to delete ubuntu with out reformatting my windows
[04:54] <balistic22> and i could restore that partition back to xp right
[04:54] <RequinB4> mistform:  The documentation for installation is pretty straightforward, just know what grafix card you have and do EVERYTHING in the terminal
[04:54] <Parlay> hey, I've never used IRC before, but I'm having problems with my once working wireless card
[04:55] <mistform> RequinB4, where is the install documentation? I just found 3 different types. I only have 64MB of graphics RAM
[04:55] <heguru> balistic22: do you have enough free space on your disk? If yes then make sure you choose the right options during installation, if not you can choose to resize your XP partition. If you read everything well then you can install ubuntu without affecting your XP
[04:55] <mistform> RequinB4, it's an older Geforce2 MX 400
[04:55] <HealthyElija2> mistform: same thing running here
[04:55] <RequinB4> mistform:  I wouldn't worry, I'm on a beryl-running laptop with intel integrated graphix
[04:55] <balistic22> heguru, yes i have about 60gb is it possible to access mp3 files from xp using ubuntu?
[04:56] <heguru> balistic22: yes it is
[04:56] <jebblue> mistform: sorry wasn't giving you a hard time I wasn't sure you knew what it was - my bad
[04:56] <balistic22> heguru, how would i be able to do that?
[04:56] <mistform> RequinB4, my old laptop wouldn't support it before. I was running Dapper and it only had 32mb of integrated graphics RAM.
[04:56] <mistform> jebblue, it's ok. I'm in a good mood today :).
[04:56] <lastnode> thunderbird is giving me a cant find minimize to tray component every time i open it. does it mean the extension?

[04:56] <HealthyElija2> how do i add files to my ETC folder?
[04:56] <heguru> balistic22: after installation ubuntu will mount your XP partition for you. You can access it by going to Places menu
[04:56] <newbuntu> !bash
[04:56] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[04:56] <HealthyElija2> it says i do not have permisision

[04:57] <Parlay> I had it working for months, but for no reason it just stopped working
[04:57] <mistform> Parlay, please tell me it's not a Dell Latitude laptop... it will have the bcm43xx chipset and is a lot of fun to work

[04:59] <novato_br> what is the best lcd monitor samsung with screen 22" ?
[04:59] <RequinB4> mistform:  Geforce is nvidia, so as long as you have a driver look over this http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-beryl-with-latest-nvidia-drivers-in-ubuntu-feisty-fawn.html
[05:00] <jebblue> Libra102: the image is small - what is that Celestia?
[05:00] <heguru> noor: right click anywhere on the top panel, click at new panel
[05:00] <Parlay> no, I don't need to reinstall the drivers for the card, I need to... turn it back on or something
[05:00] <mistform> RequinB4, lol. I just barely found that site, too. But I'm using a legacy card. I just barely had X crash on me because I was trying to use the new nvidia driver. I had to revert back to the "nv" driver
[05:00] <RequinB4> Does anyone have a better option for booting ubuntu off of a flash drive than xubuntu flash drive edtion
[05:00] <Parlay> I used the ndiswrappers and everything before, it just turned off or something and now dosent see the wireless network
[05:01] <RequinB4> mistform:  I did that as well
[05:01] <Libra102> jebblue, title bar is hide.. title and close button .. and ...
[05:01] <mistform> RequinB4, I don't think you really need much software to do that. Just make the USB port the first bootable drive in your BIOS.
[05:01] <Libra102> jebblue, full window => hide title...
[05:02] <RequinB4> mistform:  my problem was not that - i'm concerned about size of the .iso file and fast boot
[05:02] <mistform> RequinB4, the guide you linked me to says that the new nvidia drivers will load berly without the use of other dependencies. but i'm not using the newest nvidia drivers.

[05:03] <mistform> RequinB4, USB2.0 isn't going to be as fast as an EIDE or SATA2 connection. This is given and people know that from external boot devices like external storage HDDs.
[05:03] <RequinB4> mistform:  Yeah, but it's the only option ihave
[05:04] <RequinB4> mistform:  What was your graphix card again
[05:04] <balistic22> heguru, i have a question my whole hard drive is an nfts and its 60 gb of nfts, can i partition it by resizing that nfts using ubuntu
[05:04] <jebblue> Libra102: I dunno maybe restart the window manager if the title bar is messed up?
[05:05] <Parlay> any help on fixing my wireless?
[05:05] <heguru> balistic22: you can resize your drive using ubuntu. I wouldn't do that without taking backup first though!

[05:12] <marcos_> EU NO CONSIGO CONFIGURAR MEU SOM... ALGUEM PODE AJUDAR?
[05:13] <RequinB4> marcos_ :  I have a sound problem too but it's because feisty doesn't support my intel sound card - if its not that then try googling your error message
[05:14] <marcos_> my pc recognizes my soundcard, but it doesnt play a sound...
[05:15] <marcos_> like it is in mute
[05:15] <aTypical> Is it muted?
[05:15] <RequinB4> marcos_ : If you have alsa installed type 'alsamixer' into terminal
[05:15] <RequinB4> if everything is on then you have the same prob as me >.>
[05:16] <marcos_> yes, I try, but theres anything with 'MM' or 'mm'

[05:17] <stdin> try asking in ##programming
[05:18] <marcos_> well, I made it work, but I reboot the pc and the shit dont work after that
[05:18] <mistform> RequinB4, the guide is for Mepis. It also requires me to use the nvidia driver instead of the nv driver.
[05:18] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | marcos_
[05:18] <ubotu> marcos_: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:18] <dml1> stdin thanks.

[05:18] <marcos_> sorry
[05:18] <marcos_> I'm so angry
[05:19] <RequinB4> mistform:  at this point I'd just suggest trying different google things - The install for different drivers is basically the same, so worst comes to worst if you know what you are doing you can ad lib it....
[05:20] <marcos_> and, when I try to install alsa-utils, my pc returns 'the C compiler can't create executables...' bla bla bla
[05:20] <marcos_> I re-install ubuntu and no efect
[05:21] <RequinB4> marcos_ : the beauty of the internet is that you can look up if others had the same problem - Copy your error message into google

[05:22] <FFighter> Does it take less memory than gnome ?

[05:23] <RequinB4> marcos_ :  try googling your sound card
[05:24] <marcos_> well, my ubuntu recognise the sound card, but do not control the volume, I suspect
[05:24] <slackern> FFighter, Yes Fluxbox is very light but it's not a desktop enviroment like gnome it's only a windowmanager so it lacks alot of functionallity that gnome and kde has.

[05:30] <KurtKraut> Where can I find OO Presentation templates with Ubuntu logo ? There used to be some templates in wiki.ubuntu.com but I can't find it anymore.
[05:30] <brianski> tuna-fish: open up a terminal and try nslookup google.com
[05:30] <brianski> does sound like a dns problem
[05:30] <jamesdell> i think s
[05:30] <ePax> Is there any other program like gdesklets for gnome?
[05:30] <jingjang> and who create that channel will become admin ?
[05:30] <brianski> Dr_willis: why would it be a total disaster?
[05:31] <Dr_willis> brianski,  its a huge change.. and its very much a work in progress.
[05:32] <brianski> Dr_willis: that's true
[05:32] <Dr_willis> brianski,  of course it wont even work on 1/2 my machines.. so will that break them? how hard wil it be to disable.. ect... lots of potential issues.
[05:32] <brianski> oh is it compiz by default or just compiz available and no longer experimental
[05:32] <brianski> i thought the latter
[05:32] <Flannel> brianski: Not until Gutsy is released
[05:33] <babyTux> can anyone help me update my openoffice. Impress seems to keep crashing when I try to run my presentation
[05:33] <foug> I am having router problems that just started today. Any comp that is plugged in directly my router browses web pages very slow. I have no idea what caused this. Computers that get wi-fi from me are just fine when it comes to speed. Any ideas? Is there a way to see if my router/network has a virus? Or if someone on my comp is using too much of my internet?
[05:33] <brianski> Flannel: what?
[05:33] <brianski> Flannel: (what's not until gutsy is released?)
[05:33] <Flannel> brianski: Compiz isn't default until Gutsy (7.10) gets released
[05:34] <brianski> Flannel: oh, yeah i was asking about gutsy
[05:34] <Dr_willis> Then the fun begins..
[05:34] <Dr_willis> and the headaches. :)
[05:34] <riotkittie> that twirly window schtuff... oye.
[05:34] <OhMyGods> Who can help me? I have problems with serial programing
[05:34] <Flannel> brianski: Gutsy support is in #ubuntu+1, thanks.
[05:34] <Dr_willis> riotkittie,  i had to turn off the wiggly windows for my wife.. they made her dizzy
[05:34] <gusto5> hello, is there an updated guide i can use to compile/install gnome dock?
[05:34] <DShepherd> Dr_willis, hehe
[05:35] <brianski> Flannel: oh, didn't know about that. thanks
[05:35] <h08817> Anyone use wpa on fiesty?
[05:35] <riotkittie> ah yes wiggly. they make me dizzy too.
[05:35] <riotkittie> h08817: wpa1?
[05:35] <riotkittie> or wpa2?
[05:35] <h08817> riotkittie, how do i know which im using?
[05:36] <disinterested> k3b has been burning dvd's fine for me until today now the 2 dvds i burned both say blank disc when i put them in the drive?

[05:36] <dwaren> I have an amd64 box with feisty; how come my microphone doesn't work at all?
[05:36] <Evanlec> how do i add trash bin to the desktop ? ;p
[05:37] <riotkittie> dwaren: stupid question time - is it plugged in? is it muted?
[05:37] <dwaren> riotkittie, yes and no
[05:38] <Mr_Siebel> anyone?
[05:38] <riotkittie> dwaren: now that i've covered the basics, i'll bow out and let someone else step in :P

[05:40] <riotkittie> !paste | h08817
[05:41] <ubotu> h08817: 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)
[05:41] <riotkittie> oh wait. that was meant for uhm, balistic22
[05:41] <riotkittie> h08817: what are you trynig to do again?

[05:41] <balistic22> okk
[05:41] <h08817> riotkittie, configure wpa to work on my wireless connection on fiesty fawn
[05:42] <Dr_willis> Mr_Siebel,  Given how vague.. not really. so in short Everything is slow? compared to what? we talkin 4 min to open a file? or a few sec?   only SOME programs are slow to load? or all of them?
[05:42] <h08817> riotkittie, it seems it only sees wep and i used the tutorial here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo?highlight=%28encryption%29%7C%28wpa%29
[05:42] <disinterested> evanlec im not finding a way to add it on ur desktop, but i like mine where it is it just doesnt clutter up the desktop
[05:42] <balistic22> riotkittie, how would u like me to paste it
[05:42] <Mr_Siebel> Some programs usually takes at least a min and a half to open some things such as programs
[05:43] <riotkittie> h08817: it's not working out of the box? what kind of wifi adapter do you have, and if you know, what chipset is it using?
[05:43] <Mr_Siebel> 2-3 mins to open a website
[05:43] <Evanlec> disinterested, okay thx
[05:43] <Paxton> Um, excuse me. Could someone just give me a quick opinion/view on something?
[05:43] <aLeSD> hi all
[05:43] <balistic22> Riotkittie, help me <3 =)
[05:43] <h08817> riotkittie, netgear usb wg111
[05:43] <Borat> hey guys, i have an XFCE desktop, but there is an annoying root file system icon on it, does anyone know how i can delete the icon?
[05:43] <riotkittie> Mr_Siebel: what kind of hardware are you working with?
[05:43] <warlock_handler> hi guys
[05:43] <Mr_Siebel> 768MB ram
[05:43] <balistic22> can someone look at the errors i got from Gparted
[05:43] <Mr_Siebel> 250GB HD
[05:43] <jim> are there any differences between what has to be supported by a debian kernel versus a ubuntu kernel?
[05:43] <BlindeApe> How can I put a delay on a startup program?
[05:44] <aLeSD> I have a problem with the trash icon : I move in the trash files ... but the applet on the bottom right doesn't recogize it
[05:44] <Mr_Siebel> ?
[05:44] <jim> BlindeApe: what command did locutus say to data?
[05:44] <kupesoft> The for the keyring popup with network manager in Ubuntu doesn't seem to work with Xubuntu, any one know a fix?
[05:44] <BlindeApe> ...
[05:44] <aLeSD> the trash icon doesn't change to full
[05:44] <riotkittie> h08817: if i never touch another netgear, i will die a happy girl. i've got no personal experience with that model :|   have you tried searching the forums?
[05:44] <jim> answer:
[05:44] <Dr_willis> BlindeApe,  startup where exactly.. is the  imporntant part.
[05:44] <jim> sleep
[05:44] <ron11> hey guys, I'm having issues getting sound after a fresh ubuntu install
[05:45] <h08817> riotkittie, haha i take it you don't like netgear?
[05:45] <warlock_handler> i have ubuntu edgy... i recently bought a western digital USB drive... it works on my Win XP without any drivers... but on my linux box.. it kinda doesnt load correctly
[05:45] <Mr_Siebel> riotkittie: What hardware exactly are you referring to?
[05:45] <warlock_handler> any suggestions
[05:45] <BlindeApe> Dr_willis: in sessions, i want to launch avant-window-navigator after everything is loaded, so i want to put a delay on it
[05:45] <cjae_> jrib, could you please do the buntu bot to give the two links you provided eariler I had some come to door and got disrupted
[05:45] <jim> BlindeApe: and notice that this thing "..." means "etcetera"; if you mean by it "I'm angry" remember how much you are paying for answers
[05:45] <cjae_> jrib, tia
[05:45] <netham45> I can't open a terminal inside of X. It just sits there with the busy cursor for a couple of minutes. Does anyone know why?
[05:46] <BlindeApe> jim:lol, cause it was pretty random
[05:46] <balistic22> Gparted is giving me errors what else could i use
[05:46] <jim> BlindeApe: both your question and mine have the same answer
[05:46] <ron11> I'm on a laptop and lspci tells me my sound device is a  Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03), I'm not getting sound from anything, any help is appreiciated
[05:46] <BlindeApe> jim: you've lost me
[05:47] <riotkittie> h08817: i dont really anything against them. i was dumb enough to buy a usb adapter without researching it first, and found myself limited to WEP
[05:47] <jim> in the borg episode where they took picard and sewed some lazer stuff on him and made him part of the hive mind... locutus (his borg name) gave data a hint at how to stop the borg
[05:47] <jim> "sleep"
[05:47] <h08817> riotkittie, well this one supports wep and wpa
[05:48] <BlindeApe> jim: ive tried sleep, i did 'sleep 7; avant-window-navigator' but then it doesnt start at all, am I doing it wrong?
[05:48] <gabrielmonnerat> somebody can help me, because i install the driver and my wireless interface disappeared
[05:48] <warlock_handler> does anyone use this external drive http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=218&language=en
[05:48] <warlock_handler> i dont know how to get it working
[05:48] <jim> sleep might be a bash builtin command
[05:49] <jim> or a shell builtin
[05:49] <riotkittie> h08817: and you've installed wpa-supplicant?
[05:49] <jim> nope, it's its own binary
[05:49] <BlindeApe> if i do alt+f2 and run sleep 7; avant-window-navigator, it does run after 7 seconds,but not when i addd it in startup session
[05:49] <Dr_willis> warlock_handler,  if its a normal USB drive. you caould mount it manually
[05:49] <warlock_handler> ok
[05:50] <h08817> riotkittie, indeed and i configured the wpa_supplicant.conf
[05:50] <jim> BlindeApe: hmm... is that a window manager?
 i guess uBuntu tries to mount it... but i always see a busy cursor
[05:50] <babyTux> can someone help me upgrade my open office? I have 2.2 and it's crashing
[05:50] <DerangedDingo> jim: it's a compositing dock
[05:50] <BlindeApe> jim: its the mac dock look-a-like thing
[05:50] <spoofy> connect
[05:50] <jim> oh ok
[05:51] <Dr_willis> warlock_handler,  it may be partitoned oddly, or somthing else. this is when learning how to mount things manually comes in handy.
[05:51] <DerangedDingo> BlindeApe: What;s your problem?
[05:51] <x_or> Can someone tell me how to get Portuguese entry working under Gnome:  Are there access keys I need to use, or do I need to install a keyboard:
[05:51] <Dr_willis> warlock_handler,  start with plugging it in and 'sudo fdisk -l' to see if you see the drive at all. also check the output of 'dmesg' when you plug it in
[05:51] <BlindeApe> Dingo: it doesnt start at all if i add sleep 7; avant-window-navigator to startup programs in sessions
 i guess u are right... i just when through the manual... it says it has a FAT32 partition..;.
[05:52] <Dr_willis> warlock_handler,  that will make it easier to find then in the fdisk -l output. :)
[05:53] <jim> BlindeApe: what does it do?
 ohh ok... good advice
[05:53] <BlindeApe> jim: what does what do?
[05:53] <DerangedDingo> BlindeApe: what about 'avant-window-navigator'?
[05:53] <BlindeApe> that works
[05:53] <BlindeApe> dingo: but i want a delay on it
[05:53] <DerangedDingo> BlindeApe: I see...
[05:53] <jim> for what reason?>
[05:53] <DerangedDingo> You need a script, BlindeApe
[05:53] <BlindeApe> Dingo: how?
[05:54] <sauvin> I just walked in and saw this discussion of using fdisk -l to see if you can even see the drive at all. What's the drive?
[05:55] <jim> BlindeApe: I'm trying to help... really, I am... but it's hard if you're not following the conversation
[05:55] <BlindeApe> jim: idk why its not working...thats why i'm asking
[05:56] <DerangedDingo> I can't remember the exact command, i'm assuming you already know, but something like #!/bin/bash /n sleep 7 | avant-window-navigator \n #EOF
[05:56] <BlindeApe> jim: if you meant why i need a delay, because im using compiz-fusion and it looks very ugly before compiz is loaded, so i want compiz to load first before awn
[05:56] <DerangedDingo> /n meaning newline, and EOF meaning end of file.
[05:56] <kravlin> what's a good program for editing avi?
[05:56] <Fasma> sorry for the newbie q, I've been reading faqs for the last 2 hours but can' find the answer, I've used the Ubuntu live cd but can't see the Windows files already on the system, is that the way it's supposed to be due to different file systems, etc?
[05:57] <evar> Fasma, yup but is possible to get to them
[05:57] <benzss> what codec is used for m4a files ?
[05:58] <jorian> tordek
[05:58] <Fasma> evar, thanks for asking, I thought I was going crazy, I'll read the docs but is it something simple?
[05:58] <jim> BlindeApe: ok
[05:58] <damianl> hi, i cant get beryl window manager to display...whats compiz like?
[05:58] <Fasma> evar, thanks for answering I meant... lol
[05:58] <mindrape> damianl - its like Beryl basically... slightly different settings.
[05:58] <BlindeApe> jim: do you know how to create a startup script?
[05:58] <evar> Fasma search for ntfs-3g should get you goin in the right direction
[05:58] <DerangedDingo> BlindeApe: Gold. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=396972
[05:58] <mindrape> compiz is slightly more stable supposedly.
[05:58] <evar> assuming you are trying to access a ntfs partition
[05:58] <Fasma> evar, got it, thank you very much
[05:59] <damianl> mindrape cool ill give it a shot then, i thought it was dead or something
[05:59] <Paxton> Anyone use VMWare/Virtual Box/
[05:59] <Paxton> Etc.?
[05:59] <jim> BlindeApe: take a look at /etc/init.d/README
[05:59] <jim> and
[05:59] <damianl> Paxton yeah
[05:59] <Fasma> evar, yes, the existing Windows partition is ntfs, as are 3 extrnal drives on the system, I was hoping Ubuntu could see them without additional tweaking, but I'll look for instructions, thank you
[05:59] <jim> BlindeApe: take a look at /etc/init.d/skeleton
[05:59] <babyTux> so I'm downloading a .deb package to update my OpenOffice, can someone tell me if I'm maybe on the right track?
[05:59] <BlindeApe> jim, dingo: thank you both
[05:59] <Paxton> damian1: Do you know anyone who runs CS3 on it? This is the only real thing stopping me from switching :[
[05:59] <damianl> Paxton use wine
[06:00] <Paxton> Wine doesn't support it.
[06:00] <kravlin> what's a good program for editing avi?
[06:00] <Paxton> The supposed tutorials of getting it setup on Wine were false, as evidence by the long amount of comments of it not working for the users
[06:01] <damianl> Paxton hey what do you mean by cs3
[06:01] <DerangedDingo> kravlin: editing in what manner?
[06:01] <Paxton> Adobe Creative Suite 3. Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, etc.
[06:01] <Paxton> (To damian 1)
[06:01] <sensae> Anyone know what the kernel needs to use md RAIDs at boot?
[06:01] <damianl> ah yeah didnt know if you just meant one program
[06:01] <kravlin> editing as in splicing parts.
[06:01] <damianl> um
[06:01] <warlock_handler> guys how do i change to partition type from FAT32 to anything else... through the terminal
[06:01] <damianl> you can use it within vmware but expect it to be about 70% speed wise
[06:02] <sensae> Anyone familiar with mdadm?
[06:02] <kravlin> derangedDingo: I'm making a commercial for class and want to splice parts of seperate files together.
[06:02] <Paxton> damian1: The reason I'm asking about VMWare is a forum post on linuxquestions that says it works pretty well with 3GB of Ram
[06:02] <Paxton> Which makes sense, of course.
[06:02] <Paxton> I'm not that experienced beyond basic C++ when it comes to programming, but it makes sense that emulating hardware you already have shouldn't be as hard..I think?
[06:02] <DerangedDingo> kravlin: I'm hoping there is. I'm going to search synaptic as soon as i fix a problem i'm having with it right now
[06:03] <kravlin> derangedDingo: also add commentary in the background and such.
[06:03] <kravlin> ok.
[06:04] <adammw> hi. im trying to install ubuntu to a usb, but i dont want to do a full install (as it is too big and i dont have the CD). How can i install the bare minimum (e.g. kernel and terminal only) to my usb?
[06:05] <Paxton> So I was hoping to hear someone say "hey yeah I use cs3 it runs about 70% as fast"(I can live with less than optimal if it lets me kick windows)
[06:06] <damianl> well its vmware its never going to be 100% beause you have linux running in the background etc
[06:06] <damianl> but yes it will be usable
[06:06] <juwor> hi everyone
[06:06] <damianl> quite usable
[06:06] <juwor> i have a problem whit my hubuntu live
[06:06] <slapfaceware> hubuntu?
[06:06] <Paxton> damian1: Yes, or at least, I hope so. I just was hoping to find a few more people who use cs3
[06:07] <juwor> sorry ubuntu
[06:07] <Paxton> damian1: Trusting one person on the internet with a platform switch vs. a dozen or so
[06:07] <damianl> i havent used it im just talking about experience with similar programs
[06:07] <damianl> from experience*
[06:07] <juwor> well i want have my win vista and my ubuntu en network
[06:07] <Paxton> damian1: I hear you, I guess I'll just check around the forums every now and then
[06:07] <juwor> but i dont know how
[06:08] <Paxton> and hopefully will see people using it because when I search for CS3 the results are "What do you want to run on linux" or "This is why I left ubuntu" :[
[06:08] <aLeSD> I'm tring to install vmware ... is it right to install it from the bin in the vmware website ? Cause I can't find it in the repository
[06:08] <juwor> there is someone ho know abaut that?
[06:08] <CyberMad> what is the different of cifs and smbfs ?
[06:09] <nexttwo> has any1 used monodo as a backup?
[06:09] <aLeSD> cifs is supported
[06:09] <damianl> aLeSD, yes its commercial software so you wont find it anywhere but there website
[06:09] <Frogzoo> aLeSD: the bin will work - or use vmware-server or vmware-player from the repos
[06:09] <aLeSD> smbfs is obsolente
[06:09] <juwor> how i can see my ubuntu in win vista
[06:09] <juwor> in network
[06:09] <aLeSD> Frogzoo: I can't find vmware-server in the repos
[06:10] <damianl> aLeSD:  you wont find it anywhere but there website
[06:10] <Frogzoo> aLeSD: sorry, just vmware-player is in the repos
[06:10] <aLeSD> ok .. thanks
[06:10] <nexttwo> who know what is mondo?
[06:11] <nexttwo> !mondo
[06:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mondo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:11] <Frogzoo> !info mondo

[06:11] <seebs> I am having very odd behavior from an ubuntu box -- various commands hang for long periods of time when started, like, 10-20 seconds, but only sometimes.  It looks a LOT like disk trouble, but I see nothing in dmesg or system logs.
[06:12] <Frogzoo> seebs: check /etc/resolv.conf for non responding dns servers
[06:12] <seebs> However, I just noticed that I utterly botched the DNS configuration -- it's querying a server that was hauled away for recycling a few days ago.  Is it plausible that, for instance, saving changes to some files woul...
[06:12] <seebs> Okay, you're way ahead of me.
[06:13] <seebs> I just did :w on my update of resolv.conf, and vim got as far as "resolv.conf" at the bottom of the screen, then wedged.
[06:13] <seebs> Then came unstuck maybe 10-20 seconds later.
[06:13] <seebs> It is probably relevant that the only intended function of this machine is to run asterisk.
[06:13] <jim> what's that thing do
[06:13] <kravlin> derangedDingo: any luck with your problem?
[06:14] <seebs> But, for instance, just starting 'top' hangs at the command prompt for a longish time.
[06:14] <theDtTvB2> Hello, when I use apt-get update I got a GPG error:
[06:14] <theDtTvB2> W: GPG error: http://security.ubuntu.com feisty-security Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 40976EAF437D05B5
[06:14] <MasonUS> Hello.
[06:14] <theDtTvB2> What should I do?
[06:14] <Frogzoo> seebs: maybe stop * until you fix the box
[06:14] <seebs> Or running 'man'.  Which makes me very suspicious, because that sure seems like a disk error, but the disk is fine during boot.
[06:14] <DerangedDingo> kravlin: yeah. my computer shut down for unknown reasons while updating and i had to dpkg --configure -a.
[06:14] <seebs> Hmm.
[06:14] <jim> seebs: what's your uptime
[06:14] <seebs> Probably a couple of hours.  Rebooted earlier because I thought it might be * screwing things up.
[06:15] <kravlin> DerangedDingo: W00t. (Probably would be more meaningful if i knew what most of that line meant)
[06:15] <jim> well whats the full output of the uptime command
[06:15] <seebs> I will try shutting off * (who needs land lines?) and see whether it suddenly recovers.
[06:15] <tonyyarusso> seebs: Do 'watch -n 1 date' and tell me if it looks normal.
[06:15] <DerangedDingo> kravlin: kino seems like a possibility
[06:15] <juliana> oiiiii
[06:15] <juliana> buenas noites
[06:15] <jim> before you do that... run uptime
[06:15] <seebs> (I'll get that to you as soon as any of my prompts on it come back...)
[06:15] <seebs> $ uptime
[06:15] <seebs>  23:08:20 up  7:18,  2 users,  load average: 0.00, 0.01, 0.02
[06:16] <kravlin> DerangedDingo: it only works with two video file types. Neither of them are .avi
[06:16] <juliana> helloww
[06:16] <jim> seebs: before or after you rebooted\
[06:16] <jim> julianahi
[06:16] <seebs> After, by about 7 hours.  :)
[06:16] <seebs> So, 'watch -n 1 date' has been issued, but nothing has happened yet.
[06:16] <tonyyarusso> seebs: as in, is your clock counting seconds normally or being weird?
[06:17] <xoRock> alow, what is the software for use to print barcode, label, id card, etc?
[06:17] <jim> juliana hi
[06:17] <seebs> I don't know yet.  The insane startup delay of nearly any command is limiting my choices...
[06:17] <MasonUS> I need help editing bashpodder.  I want to make it use mp3toogg to convert any mp3 downloaded to ogg as they finish.
[06:17] <jim> seebs: hmm
[06:17] <seebs> The odd thing is that some commands are quick and responsive.  I mean, I have a huge .profile, and that executes in the milliseconds I'd expect.
[06:18] <DerangedDingo> kravlin: http://www.desktoplinux.com/articles/AT7096363910.html
[06:18] <juliana> hi jim wal are you?
[06:18] <minerale> I have ubuntu with gnome installed, how do I install kde ?
[06:18] <seebs> Well, watch came up, and ran date once.  And now it's just sitting there...
[06:18] <DerangedDingo> kravlin: http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Video/Open-Movie-Editor-8371.shtml
[06:18] <jim> the .profile is run when a login shell (bash or sh) starts
[06:18] <seebs> Yes.
[06:19] <seebs> So I ssh in, and I type my password, and BANG, prompt.  Dozens of commands later.
[06:19] <juliana> hellowww
[06:19] <seebs> Oh-hoh!
[06:19] <DerangedDingo> kravlin: http://www.linuxsoft.cz/en/sw_list.php?id_kategory=19
[06:19] <jim> wal am I!
[06:19] <juliana> hellow boys
[06:19] <kravlin> DerangedDingo: Thanks!
[06:19] <jim> umm :) I don't know "wal"
[06:19] <seebs> The 'watch -n 1 date' is counting up ludicrously slowly.
[06:19] <DerangedDingo> heh welcome
[06:19] <juliana> god night
[06:19] <seebs> I say this because I started it a minute or two ago, and I just got a second tick on it.
[06:19] <budguy> minerale try to install kde desktop from synaptic
[06:20] <jim> juliana: wat you are doing? :)
[06:20] <seebs> But wait... Just running date on the command line is fine.  WTF?
[06:20] <Waakzamheid> hey, what'd be the right place for some help with debugging my dmesg logs re: usb card reader?
[06:20] <seebs> Oooooh.  'date; sleep 1; date' is taking... A lot more than a second.
[06:20] <sbartleylinux> Hi.  Anyone with experience getting IBM X3200 w/ SATA300 RAID controller to be recognized for Feisty install?

[06:31] <MasonUS> P_Kable: before*
[06:31] <twoshadetod> where is rar stored on your menu? i got a bunch of rars that dont want to "link" when i just click one
[06:31] <juliana> music?
[06:31] <wintermu1e> has anyone gotten the cisco vpn driver to compile under feisty?
[06:31] <MasonUS> P_Kable: did you check the MD5 on your ISO to make sure it downloaded properly?
[06:31] <juliana> dance ?
[06:31] <kotau> juliana whatttt
[06:32] <twoshadetod> is there a gui version of rar or unrar?
[06:32] <juliana> hummm the best rock
[06:32] <twoshadetod> I think rar handles the unraring but you know what i mean
[06:32] <ferronica> how to update my VLC player ?  right now VLC media player 0.8.6 , available   VLC media player 0.8.6c
[06:32] <MasonUS> P_Kable: I think I found something in the forum.
[06:32] <P_Kable> ok
[06:32] <juliana> the best rock dance
[06:32] <MasonUS> P_Kable: I'm still reading it but here is the link http://gparted-forum.surf4.info/viewtopic.php?id=919
[06:32] <juliana> rsssss
[06:33] <sauvin> I have unrar; is rar for linux available?
[06:33] <jim> juliana: http://youtube.com/watch?v=rkti7BAb3-8
[06:33] <twoshadetod> sauvin, yeah but i am about to just to run winrar under wine and make it work
[06:33] <MasonUS> P_Kable: it looks like you might have to use an older version of the live disk.
[06:34] <juliana> ):
[06:34] <P_Kable> yep
[06:34] <sauvin> Good luck with that. I've had mixed successes with wine.
[06:34] <MasonUS> P_Kable: There seems to be some known booting issues.
[06:34] <juliana> orkut?
[06:34] <Bamnana> Hello to everyone, I installed mac menu applet but it doesn't cover my needs. Can you help me to get rid of it?
[06:34] <MasonUS> P_Kable: I'm not a GRUB guru, but you might want to try to get someone who knows more about GRUB to help you find the CDROM drive from the command line.
[06:34] <MasonUS> P_Kable: although it would be inconvenient at best, because you would have to type it every time
[06:35] <MasonUS> P_Kable: unless you edited the grub configuration on the ISO.
[06:35] <twoshadetod> sauvin, so far it's working flawlessly, I have also, but i run wow in wine and it handles that, so im a happy man
[06:35] <twoshadetod> lol
[06:36] <sauvin> do you also have Windows installed on your maching, using Windows dlls?
[06:36] <MasonUS> K_Parted: have you looked at Partedmagic?
[06:36] <twoshadetod> I have windows installed on a dual boot but it never needed to access them, if it did it did it stealth
[06:36] <MasonUS> K_Parted: I wish I could fix the problem for ya, but I'm afraid this is the best I can do :)
[06:37] <Curs0r> !nvidia
[06:37] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:37] <MasonUS> K_Parted: The Ubuntu live disk boots with GParted I believe.
[06:37] <MasonUS> K_Parted: its kind of overkill, but that might work for you.
[06:38] <sauvin> That's encouraging; I have NO Windows whatsoever.
[06:38] <jim> sauvin: hmm, how do you see out of your car to drive?
[06:38] <sauvin> My Ubuntu live disk DOES have GParted.
[06:38] <twoshadetod> good, as far as wine and you should be concerned you'll have the same luck
[06:38] <MasonUS> Sauvin: I thought it did, i just couldn't remember :)
[06:39] <MasonUS> So, are there any BASH scripting pros in here? I really could use some help editing bash podder.
[06:41] <MasonUS> :( guess not.
[06:41] <MasonUS> afk a moment
[06:42] <sethk> MasonUS, I'm good with korn shell scripting.  bash scripting is korn shell scripting with bugs added
[06:42] <jim> MasonUS: meanwhile if you need help you can do "info bash"
[06:42] <MasonUS> sethk: really, ok well did you see my earlier question?
[06:43] <StreetSmart> Would anyone be able to guide me in getting my lenovo thinkpad R60 to boot faster. Here is my bootchart http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=44304&d=1190609235 It seems as if multiple occurances of avahi-deamon.
[06:43] <sethk> MasonUS, no, just got here
[06:43] <MasonUS> sethk: cool, here it is.
[06:43] <MasonUS> sethk: I want to edit a particular version of the bashpodder script
[06:43] <MasonUS> sethk: its the one user submitted version by chess griffin.
[06:43] <MasonUS> sethk: I wanted it to run mp3toogg on every mp3 that it downloads as they download.
[06:44] <Javid> For some reason I have two icons for my DVD drive on my desktop. whaaaat
[06:44] <open-gl> hello is there a way to remove a file that is in program files with windows. I want to remove it with linux.
[06:44] <MasonUS> sethk: i already have mp3toogg installed and working fine
[06:44] <sethk> MasonUS, I'll have to look at the script, of course.  I don't think I have it on my box, so do you have a url, or can you paste it?
[06:44] <MasonUS> sethk: sure can, gimme just a sec
[06:44] <sethk> MasonUS, ok.  I'm dealing with support calls also, so if I'm not here, I'll be back shortly.
[06:45] <MasonUS> sethk; thanks for the notice, i'll have the link for you shortyly
[06:45] <chibitk> hey anyone know how to install compiz fusion?
[06:45] <MasonUS> sethk: http://lincgeek.org/bashpodder/user_contributed/chess_griffin/bashpodder.shell
[06:45] <bruenig> MasonUS, you know that transcoding degrades quality right?
[06:45] <chibitk> ??
[06:45] <MasonUS> bruenig: yes, but I don't have a problem with it.
[06:46] <bruenig> MasonUS, ok just making sure
[06:46] <MasonUS> bruenig: some of the podcasts I subscribe to aren't available in OGG.
[06:46] <MasonUS> bruenig: :)
[06:46] <bruenig> oh well podcasts probably don't matter, music however
[06:46] <chibitk> hey all
[06:46] <MasonUS> bruenig: I agree.
[06:47] <Samurai_Dan> i need to update to the latest kernal
[06:48] <MasonUS> bruenig: bashpodder is a neat script, it actually will manage all of your podcast downloads, just a tiny little script.
[06:48] <chibitk> .....
[06:48] <bruenig> MasonUS, the guy who wrote certainly doesn't care for readability
[06:48] <bruenig> wrote it*
[06:48] <MasonUS> bruenig: no doubt!
[06:48] <MasonUS> bruenig: its driving me crazy, I Haven't been able to figure this out.
[06:48] <Samurai_Dan> can someone tell me how to update to the latest kernal ?
[06:48] <MasonUS> bruenig: but I am fairly new to all of this.
[06:48] <Samurai_Dan> i need sound support but no alsa or oss installed
[06:49] <bruenig> I'm sure I could, but whether it is worth the effort is another question
[06:49] <MasonUS> bruenig, stefg: I'll pastebin the usage for mp3toogg
[06:49] <bruenig> I don't even know what you are trying to do
[06:50] <MasonUS> bruenig: oh ok, I Just want to make the script run mp3toogg on any mp3 files that bashpodder downloads.
[06:50] <Samurai_Dan> can someone tell me how to update to the latest kernal ? i need to install it with only top level sound support , no alsa or oss support
[06:50] <DARKGuy> Hey, anybody knows how can I add my home folder recursively to an mpd playlist? I haven't had success with the filesystem browsers in pympd and gmpc :(
[06:50] <MasonUS> bruenig: it is a little program that converts mp3 encoded music to the ogg vorbis standard.
[06:50] <bruenig> MasonUS, does bashpodder download all the stuff to one directory
[06:50] <MasonUS> bruenig: not the version I'm using, i believe it sorts the mp3 files by directory.
[06:50] <MasonUS> bruenig: rather the podcasts
[06:51] <MasonUS> bruenig: I THink it makes a directory for each podcast.
[06:51] <bruenig> MasonUS, is there some high level directory that it is all contained in though
[06:51] <MasonUS> bruenig: and a playlist.
[06:51] <MasonUS> bruenig: yes, in my case it is in the /home/masonus/podcasts directory
[06:51] <open-gl> is there a way to uninstall a software that is in windows such as aim but i want to uninstall it from linux
[06:51] <cheezewizard> Is there a way in ubuntu to reset all of the network settings back to the default install?  I'm trying to install a wireless card with ndiswrapper, and I think I screwed it up, I just don't know where.
[06:51] <grayhane> Is there a way to get make an exact CD image of an audio CD for storage on a hard drive ??
[06:52] <bruenig> MasonUS, yeah so cd into that directory and do: find . -type f -iname "*.mp3" -exec mp32ogg '{}' \;
[06:52] <jim> grayhane: well a cd image is multiple tracks
[06:52] <bastid_raZor> open-gl: from the sounds of it you're dual booting and if so no.
[06:52] <DARKGuy> open-gl, it's possible, but it could lead to problems since you need NTFS write stuff, which is experimental and can compromise your partition, kinda risky.
[06:52] <jim> a data cd is one track
[06:52] <MasonUS> bruenig: so I Should have the script do that once after it finishes all of its downloads?
[06:52] <sbartleylinux>  Anyone with experience getting IBM X3200 w/ SATA300 RAID controller to be recognized for Feisty install?
[06:52] <bastid_raZor> ntfs-3g is iffy??
[06:53] <bastid_raZor> !ntfs-3g open-gl
[06:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs-3g open-gl - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:53] <bruenig> MasonUS, since mp32ogg doesn't delete the mp3's this might be better: find . -type f -iname "*.mp3" -exec mp32ogg '{}' && rm '{}' \;
[06:53] <bruenig> MasonUS, yeah sure
[06:53] <DARKGuy> it isn't bad, it's just... well risky oO
[06:53] <Evanlec> !fakeraid | sbartleylinux
[06:53] <DARKGuy> FAT32 > NTFS.
[06:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fakeraid - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:53] <Evanlec> sbartleylinux, is that softraid or hardware?
[06:53] <MasonUS> bruenig: actually mp3togg has a switch for deleting the mp3 files after it converts them
[06:53] <grayhane> Yes I realize it is not the same as a data , but how can I reproduce an exact copy of a music CD for storage on a HD for later burning ?
[06:53] <MasonUS> burenig: it defaults to delet
[06:53] <DARKGuy> anyways, anybody knows how can I add my home folder recursively to an mpd playlist? I haven't had success with the filesystem browsers in pympd and gmpc :(
[06:53] <bruenig> MasonUS, ok then use the switch definitely in place of that thing
[06:53] <newcar> the source code for gusty is suposed to be here?

[06:54] <bastid_raZor> twoshadetod: k3b
[06:54] <CyberMad> does set ip address to 172.168.x.x is okay? for LAN ?  because i see on IP Address rule.. class B should be 172.16.x.x  (so it's 16 instead 168)
[06:54] <twoshadetod> bastid_raZor, thanks
[06:55] <bruenig> newcar, well distros don't really have much in the way of source code, they basically just package other stuff, so yeah you can get the source code of certain apps that have been packaged from that repo
[06:55] <kr00l> Can someone help me with an iPod question?
[06:55] <Xenguy> twoshadetod: I prefer k3b

[06:56] <bruenig> newcar, which module? is it in the default kernel tree?
[06:56] <newcar> my first time hackin on the kernel source, need to fix some stuff
[06:56] <StreetSmart> Would anyone be able to guide me in getting my lenovo thinkpad R60 to boot faster. Here is my bootchart http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=44304&d=1190609235 It seems as if multiple occurances of avahi-deamon.

[06:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs-g - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:56] <DARKGuy> gah
[06:56] <DARKGuy> !ntfs-3g
[06:56] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[06:56] <DARKGuy> there.
[06:56] <bruenig> newcar, answer the second question then as that will dictate where to get it
[06:56] <sbartleylinux> Evanlec, did that answer your question?  Or is more info needed?
[06:57] <RAdams> where does ubuntu keep its list of themes installed?
[06:57] <bruenig> newcar, also this is not gibbon support, that is #ubuntu+1
[06:57] <RAdams> I need to purge it
[06:57] <bruenig> doesn't have a list I wouldn't think, just has them installed
[06:57] <RAdams> I can't unisntall one
[06:57] <RAdams> and the folder isn't there anymore in ~/.themes
[06:58] <newcar> i see, im new to hackin ubuntu, ive been using for a good time, but never actualy had to edit source and recompile the kernel (only ati module)
[06:58] <grayhane> Jim I realize that but is there no way to store an entire album and the index track in one file , iI would think they do that to make mass burns when producing albums.
[06:58] <P_Kable> MasonUS=>  I replaced the drive and it works ;)
[06:58] <newcar> thx, ill go there
[06:58] <DARKGuy> Hey, anybody knows how can I add my home folder recursively to an mpd playlist? I haven't had success with the filesystem browsers in pympd and gmpc :(
[06:58] <MasonUS> masonus: no hard rive?
[06:58] <MasonUS> lol
[06:58] <MasonUS> P_Kable: new hard drive?
[06:58] <MasonUS> P_Kable: or you changed your boot order?
[06:58] <jim> grayhane: it's possible
[06:59] <grayhane> but can a lame guy like me do t i?
[06:59] <jim> but the way that's generally done in linux (could be useful to you, I don't know) is to rip the tracks and reburn them
[06:59] <jim> (my thing is to rip, convert to mp3, write to a data cd)
[07:00] <Prez_> hello
[07:00] <grayhane> Jim, ok so I then have say 12 wave files, but what about the info track that lets my car player look smart?
[07:00] <jim> not sure, yuou
[07:00] <Prez_> where would I add stuff I need done before my laptop hibernates?
[07:00] <jim> will have to do research on that part
[07:00] <jim> I'm sure it's possible
[07:01] <sakuranet02> ae
[07:01] <jim> also there are online cd databases you can get from there
[07:01] <sakuranet02> ae
[07:01] <chibitk> wow envy is a pretty neat tool
[07:01] <grayhane> Jim, OK well thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I will do some research and let you know later what I find. do you use any DVD stuff in Linux ?
[07:02] <jim> well I have the burners, but haven't done anything with them yet
[07:02] <bruenig> !envy | chibitk
[07:02] <ubotu> chibitk: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[07:03] <chibitk> shyt ur kidden me!
[07:03] <grayhane> Jim, I so think I found a work around, using KB3 telling it to make a multiple burn then aborting while the image is still on the HD but it only burns then in KB3

[07:07] <_schweini> i started my machine normaly, and it starting fscking (30th time mounted, so ithought everything's ok). well it found some errors, i told it to do what it wanted to do, and now, all the files are gone - BUT 'df' still reports 9GB used. 'du' reports about 10kb (or so) used, so i guess the files are still somewhere. any tips?
[07:07] <_schweini> ext3 on feisty
[07:07] <Frogzoo> _schweini: lost+found
[07:07] <HealthyElijah> i asked my fire question in ubuntu-effects
[07:08] <_schweini> FrogZoo: lost+found is empty
[07:08] <adcurtin> Is it possible to do an ubuntu installation from within another distro (i.e. fedora core)
[07:08] <_schweini> is this the right place to ask these type of questions?
[07:08] <Frogzoo> schweini: df /mount/point
[07:09] <DARKGuy> Well I'll answer myself: Gotta do sudo ln -s "myMusicPath" /var/lib/mpd/music
[07:10] <Man> hiiiiiiiiiiiii
[07:10] <Aaron552> hi... i have a problem with my wireless card: i get an error on the terminal about missing firmware
[07:10] <_schweini> FrogZoo: 'df' reports about 90% used (which is correct). 'du', 'ls', etc show about 3 files (most of them links), and lost+found. but all empty. so how can 'df'still know about my files, and the rest of the system cant find them
[07:10] <DARKGuy> So yay for useless "man mpd" =/
[07:10] <Prez_> wonder my my fn+F12 (hibernate) doesn't work, used to work with another kernel, whre can i check what might a have changed...thinkpad x60s
[07:11] <Frogzoo> schweini: these will be .* files, says $5
[07:11] <zztt> hi
[07:11] <Prez_> anyone in central america?
[07:11] <Aaron552> hello?
[07:11] <DARKGuy> I'm from south, if that helps
[07:11] <schweini> FrogZoo: nope. ls -la wont show anything either
[07:12] <h08817> i get this error when configuring WPA WPA: EAPOL--Key Replay Counter did not increase - dropping packet
[07:12] <schweini> Prez_ yea. im in costa rica
[07:12] <vulcanius> schweini, what's your problem?
[07:13] <HealthyElijah> just downloaded bloody updates and it broke my compiz paint fire plugin
[07:13] <HealthyElijah> arghhhhhh
[07:13] <evar> ubuntu live cd has gparted or something similar right?
[07:13] <HealthyElijah> how do i get rid of the .15 ubuntu in boot menu
[07:13] <HealthyElijah> it has .15 and .16
[07:13] <schweini> vulcanius: my machine wanted to fsck (30th mount), found some errors, fixed them, now everything's gone. only some vmlinuz files, and an empty lost+found/. weirdest thing is that 'df' still reports 90% usage of the disk (which is correct), but i can't find the darn files
[07:14] <vulcanius> schweini, you mean your unable to see anything? not even /?
[07:15] <Prez_> schweini: cool...2 out of 1000, still not that great :-)
[07:15] <Prez_> schweini: i am in Nicaragua
[07:15] <Inox> how do i know what is my kernel version?
[07:15] <evar> uname -a
[07:16] <indraveni> hi all
[07:16] <ronnie> got this nvidia card "nVidia Corporation C51G [GeForce 6100]  (rev a2)" and wondering should I use the regular driver on the newer one?
[07:16] <indraveni> where can I get the information about ubuntu team structure
[07:17] <schweini> vulcanius: it looks like /boot (vmlinuz, a couple of links to ../wherever, but nothing else. but as i said, 'df' still sais everything's fine, and IIRC even fsck reported thousands of files.
[07:17] <Inox> how do i know what is my kernel version?
[07:17] <jim> uname -a
[07:17] <jim> cat /proc/version
[07:17] <indraveni> like, how many teams ubutnu project has, and who is leading which team and how they are coordinating each other
[07:18] <Frogzoo> !ubuntu | indraveni
[07:18] <jim> like, um, uh,
[07:18] <ubotu> indraveni: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[07:18] <schweini> ...and i ran fsck couple of times, it insists that everythings fine
[07:18] <vulcanius> schweini, do you remember what it is fsck wanted to do?
[07:18] <Frogzoo> schweini: run filelight will find where all the space is
[07:19] <indraveni> yes it a community based, but there will be some one heading different teams, i feel
[07:19] <indraveni> is it not like that ?
[07:19] <Inox> why I can start ubuntu using 2.6.20-15-generic and cannot the 2.6.20-16-generic?
[07:19] <schweini> at the very first run it was something about multply claimed blocks or something. then i ran it against a backup superblock (no idea if that makes sense), and it complained about about free inodes and such
[07:19] <schweini> filelight? never heard of it. BRB
[07:20] <jim> it's not that much different in debian... but the teams there are more ad hoc at least for packages, like deity team, x strike force, etc
[07:20] <reed> why i don't play dvd vob format in ubuntu
[07:20] <HealthyElijah> Can anyone help use my ubuntu to rdp into a xp server?
[07:20] <HealthyElijah> Where do i find it?
[07:22] <Inox> why I can start ubuntu using 2.6.20-15-generic and cannot the 2.6.20-16-generic?
[07:22] <schweini> FrogZoo: ermmm. filelight looks like a graphical 'du', and 'du' reports only like 12k or something used. (but 'df' report 9 GB used)
[07:22] <Noctuae> !firefox %s
[07:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about firefox %s - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:22] <jim> what's latest release
[07:22] <HealthyElijah> where is remote desktop application in ubuntu?
[07:23] <Frogzoo> schweini: pastebin those
[07:23] <HealthyElijah> never mind, i found it
[07:23] <jim> HealthyElijah: X itself ic client/server
[07:25] <HealthyElijah> jim: have you used ubuntu to remote into a xp client?
[07:25] <HealthyElijah> it says it isnt connecting
[07:25] <HealthyElijah> could not reso,lve host
[07:25] <HealthyElijah> i put the right adress in
[07:26] <HealthyElijah> is it because of firewall ?
[07:26] <jim> HealthyElijah: xp? that's microsoft right?
[07:26] <HealthyElijah> haha
[07:26] <HealthyElijah> yes of course
[07:26] <jim> well if you found what you need, good enough...
[07:26] <HealthyElijah> once if gigure linux out i will switch server to linux as well
[07:26] <sethk> Inox, could be a million reasons.  We need a lot more detail to say anything intelligent.
[07:26] <HealthyElijah> i cannot connect
[07:27] <HealthyElijah> i search ubuntu help for "terminal server"  and get nothing
[07:28] <mac_> any account or invoicing software for ubuntu?
[07:28] <Frogzoo> that would be gnucash
[07:28] <mac_> Frogzoo: thanks, is there a myob for linux?
[07:29] <Frogzoo> dunno
[07:29] <karencarplet> I know its not secure but it is easier for me since I only sever content via a local network, but how do I enable proftpd to allow root login?
[07:29] <Frogzoo> mac_: there's always vmware or maybe wine
[07:29] <wintermu1e> anyone had problems with network-manager-vpnc crashing all th etime?
[07:29] <Frogzoo> karencarplet: you don't, not ever
[07:30] <HealthyElijah> is ntfs-3g safe?
[07:31] <karencarplet> Frogzoo, I appreciate your opionin, however the network had=s no outside coneection, so I would prefer to do it that way as opposed to learning ssh and sftp, which for somereason did not work for me
[07:31] <fen> karencarplet: Frogzoo is right on that one, you need to create a user if nessecary and give the user permission to access it.
[07:31] <tonyyarusso> HealthyElijah: as of Feisty I believe it was declared stable.
[07:31] <jim> karencarplet: better to use ssh/scp
[07:31] <HealthyElijah> tonyyarusso: would u use it?
[07:31] <scguy318> HealthyElijan: ntfs-3g is very much safe and stable
[07:31] <karencarplet> jim, ok, will try it out, seems a bighassle just to add an index.html file to /var/www/
[07:32] <tonyyarusso> HealthyElijah: Well, no, given that I don't have Windows, but if I did, yes.
[07:32] <scguy318> HealthyElijan: if it wasn't, it would still be beta
[07:32] <Manis> hi@all
[07:32] <HealthyElijah> k, thanks guys that makes me feel better
[07:32] <jamesrdorn> I need a just a tad bit of help, when Gnome logs in or out, I get the sound to play. But any audio other than that does not work. testing a file with mplayer i I get alsa-lib: pcm_hw.c:1242:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p failed: Device or resource busy. any clues?
[07:32] <HealthyElijah> makes linux that much better
[07:32] <fen> HealthyElijah: before using ntfs-3g you may want to run windows and use chkdsk to get a consistant state just to be on the safe side.
[07:32] <HealthyElijah> is it coming standard in gutsy gibbon?
[07:33] <chronos> hi, I am having trouble installing a buggy package provided by ubuntu. I found the bug report at ubuntu's launch pad, but it stated the fix was already released. Where do I find this fix?
[07:33] <HealthyElijah> dunno what chkdsk is?
[07:33] <Frogzoo> !sound | jamesrdorn
[07:33] <ubotu> jamesrdorn: 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
[07:33] <tonyyarusso> HealthyElijah: windows fsck, basically
[07:33] <Manis> Can you say me why i can show all open applications on ununtu 7.04?
[07:33] <HealthyElijah> what does chkdsk do, simply?
[07:33] <karencarplet> jim, can you point me to a good howto on ssh.scp, Im a complete nood and like I said just need to place one index.html file which will never really change to /var/www/
[07:33] <jim> karencarplet: scp index.html webuser@the.host:public_html/
[07:33] <tonyyarusso> HealthyElijah: looks for and corrects windows filesystem erros
[07:33] <tonyyarusso> *errors
[07:33] <chowmeined> HealthyElijah: it looks for errors in the filesystem and attemps to correct them
[07:33] <HealthyElijah> k, i may do that then
[07:34] <chronos> manis, u can use the system monitor at: system->administration
[07:34] <jim> karencarplet: first... have you ever used cp?
[07:34] <HealthyElijah> if i keep using windows though i will have to do that all the time though right?
[07:34] <karencarplet> jim yeah
[07:34] <HealthyElijah> I still have some stuff in eed windows for
[07:34] <jim> karencarplet: then scp will be pretty esay
[07:34] <jim> easy
[07:34] <tonyyarusso> HealthyElijah: It should be done once in a while regardless of Linux usage, but not all the time.
[07:34] <jim> evidently it's harder to spel easy
[07:34] <tonyyarusso> HealthyElijah: think of it like defragging
[07:34] <cheezewizard> I need help with an ASUS WL-107G wireless card on a WPA network
[07:35] <HealthyElijah> k, so i dont have to do it after every run
[07:35] <karencarplet> jim, I am reading the man and info pages, I might as well learn the right way, true enough, thanks for the motivation and the kick in the butt
[07:35] <HealthyElijah> works fo rme
[07:35] <fen> HealthyElijah: cheezewizard, what chipset?
[07:35] <cheezewizard> rl2500, I believe
[07:35] <cheezewizard> sorry - rt2500 chipset
[07:35] <jim> you're welcome for the kick in the butt... by the way, when's your birthday? I give birthday spankings too :)
[07:35] <fen> cheezewizard: what problem are you having?
[07:36] <HealthyElijah> Have you any idea how to connect to xp server with term services in ubuntu?
[07:36] <HealthyElijah> i put in address and it canno tresolve
[07:36] <lastnode> anyone using pidgin here?
[07:36] <hegemon> how can i disable a key on my keyboard i have one of those IBM thinkpad keyboards, not a laptop just the ibm keyboard model no. sk-8835
[07:36] <HealthyElijah> lastnode: me
[07:36] <fen> HealthyElijah: rdesktop <hostname or ip>
[07:36] <lastnode> HealthyElijah: do you use googel talk with it?
[07:36] <cheezewizard> My problem is when I try to connect to my wpa network using the netmanager applet (0.6.4) it allows me to type in the WPA key, but does not connect.  I used NDISwrapper to install the wireless card
[07:36] <Frogzoo> HealthyElijah: xmodmap
[07:37] <Frogzoo> hegemon: xmodmap
[07:37] <HealthyElijah> fen: NICE
[07:37] <hegemon> thanks, frogzoo
[07:37] <jim> karencarplet: you can scp someuser@one.host:/home/someuser/file anotheruser@diff.host:
[07:37] <chronos> hi, I am having trouble installing a buggy package provided by ubuntu. I found the bug report at ubuntu's launch pad, but it stated the fix was already released. Where do I find this fix?
[07:37] <HealthyElijah>  i was using the terminal server client and it just wouldnt connect
[07:37] <jim> that will copy to anotheruser's home dir
[07:38] <HealthyElijah> so simple fen
[07:38] <karencarplet> jim, its more like I need to scp the index.html to /var/www/ is that possible?
[07:38] <fen> HealthyElijah: terminal services client simply calls rdesktop with the options you specify in the gui.
[07:38] <scguy318> HealthyElijah: you do have the fine 3389 TCP port open, right?
[07:39] <HealthyElijah> fen: well it didnt work for crap
[07:39] <`Matir> In thunderbird, is there any way to specify an arbitrary "from" address, rather than one of your accounts?
[07:39] <jim> karencarplet: sure. who owns that dir?
[07:39] <karencarplet> roor
[07:39] <karencarplet> jim root
[07:39] <jim> toot
[07:39] <HealthyElijah> the rdesktop ip here worked s fast i $hit my pants
[07:39] <TTilus> chronos: next ubuntu release?  do ya have link to that bug report?
[07:39] <jim> :)
[07:39] <karencarplet> jim, root
[07:39] <jim> ok :)
[07:39] <HealthyElijah> gonna make a loader for that
[07:40] <fen> HealthyElijah: don't run rdesktop too often, could get messy ;)
[07:40] <HealthyElijah> launcher i mean
[07:40] <HealthyElijah> i live off rdesktop
[07:40] <jim> on the server side you might have to alter the /etc/ssh/sshd_config (and restart sshd) to allow root logins
[07:40] <HealthyElijah> why messy though?
[07:40] <chronos> here you go TTilus: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/torrentflux/+bug/93307
[07:40] <jim> but once root can ssh in,
[07:40] <TTilus> chronos: if the bug is a security issue then the fix might be available via security updates, but then you would probably already have it
[07:40] <chronos> TTilus, the last report is mine
[07:41] <jim> karencarplet: you can scp file.html root@the.web.host:/var/www/
[07:41] <ubuntu> my problem is that my ati 9550 wont work with linux out of the box cause of the driver so i was wondering if somebody can edit my Xorg.conf file so i can get into unbuntu then download the restricted accellerated driver
[07:41] <chronos> TTilus: i keep everything updated, the bug was while installing software from the repositories
[07:42] <HealthyElijah> now i can use my work laptop to remote into the server
[07:42] <HealthyElijah> gonna put xubuntu on it since it is slow
[07:42] <scguy318> ubuntu: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:42] <karencarplet> jim, just got to that point in the man pages and I must say that you have been extremely helpful, if you were in the michigan area and of legal drinking age i would buy you many beers, thanks
[07:42] <fen> TTilus: i run tf on fiesty, i gave up on debconf and did it with the mysql cli.
[07:42] <HealthyElijah> along with ntfs-3g i will have it made
[07:42] <HealthyElijah> oh crap
[07:42] <HealthyElijah> i bet i cannot use a verizon aircard with (x)ubuntu though huh?
[07:43] <TTilus> chronos: "This should be fixed in Gutsy." i.e. wait for the next release or go for gutsy right now (if you dare)
[07:43] <karencarplet> HealthyElijah, My Srint card works fine
[07:43] <scguy318> HealthyElijah: lemme see
[07:43] <ubuntu> scguy318: thanks
[07:43] <ubuntu> but i dont have ubuntu installed yet
[07:44] <ubuntu> scguy318: im in live cd
[07:44] <TTilus> chronos: i'd suggest you go with workaround as fen suggests
[07:44] <chronos> what version number would that be TTilus? I got Feisty fawn (7.04)
[07:44] <fen> the bigpond wireless works (aust telco) fine, its a sierra wireless chipset.
[07:44] <scguy318> ubuntu: so basically you're planning ahead? :)
[07:44] <TTilus> chronos: launch your mysqlclient, $ mysql -u root -p
[07:44] <HealthyElijah> http://www.markmmanning.com/blog/2007/07/installing-verizon-wireless-evdo-card.html  i just found this and it is my same aircard
[07:44] <scguy318> ubuntu: I'm presuming that you';re unable to reach the GUI?
[07:44] <scguy318> ubuntu: *you're
[07:44] <TTilus> chronos: and run command create database torrentflux
[07:45] <ubuntu> scguy318: yeah thats it
[07:45] <jim> karencarplet: been doin this stuff a long time... btw, you might find this method is even easier... because you could potentially copy all files in a directory with one command
[07:45] <karencarplet> jim, terribly coll, thanks again
[07:45] <scguy318> ubuntu: you could try to run that command in the terminal that X drops you to
[07:45] <karencarplet> jim, *cool
[07:45] <jim> terrible coil?
[07:45] <scguy318> ubuntu: the LiveCD user is ubuntu/ubuntu I think
[07:45] <jim> oh :)
[07:45] <ubuntu> scguy318: i know its my driver thats why i was wondering cause i know the problembecause i can get into it with safe graphics mode
[07:45] <scguy318> ubuntu: else you could use the altternative CD
[07:46] <scguy318> ubuntu: ah
[07:46] <pl_ice> guys, need a hand grub-install on external HD
[07:46] <scguy318> ubuntu: so just install in safe
[07:46] <scguy318> ubuntu: then after install, go to Recovery Console and just do that
[07:46] <scguy318> ubuntu: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:46] <ubuntu> ive did that so many times
[07:46] <scguy318> ubuntu: then you can go install the restricted
[07:46] <jim> karencarplet: next time you come to sf bay area, I may take you up on some coffee
[07:46] <ubuntu> scguy318: what driver should i use since it only works in safe mode
[07:47] <TTilus> chronos: success?
[07:47] <scguy318> ubuntu: after installation, when u do the reconfiguration, you would select vesa
[07:47] <ubuntu> yeah i did that last time it still didnt work
[07:47] <scguy318> !ati | ubuntu
[07:47] <ubotu> ubuntu: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:47] <karencarplet> jim, out there one a month for work, next trip I will give you a hollar
[07:47] <ubuntu> ok
[07:47] <fen> i refuse to use debconf for xorg-xserver, its puts soo much unnessecary crap in my xorg.conf
[07:47] <ubuntu> scguy318: ok
[07:47] <chronos> TTilus: the problem is i don't have mysql command, and i am affraid of canceling the torrentflux installation to get mysql
[07:47] <jim> karencarplet: cool :) btw, I'm not generally here...
[07:48] <fen> chronos: you can cancel it and go back later
[07:48] <HealthyElijah> is there a keyboard shortcut in ubuntu for the terminal?
[07:48] <HealthyElijah> not full screen
[07:48] <TTilus> chronos: well, if you do not have mysql, then you should not select db when installing torrentflux
[07:48] <ubuntu> scguy318: im installing as we speek
[07:48] <chronos> TTilus i get a strange debconf dialog box, and am afraid of breaking something jeje
[07:48] <pl_ice> anyone can give me a hand installing grub on external hd? pls
[07:48] <HealthyElijah> i can nver get back from the full screen terminal
[07:48] <scguy318> HealthyElijah: Alt-F2 -> xterm :P
[07:48] <scguy318> HealthyElijah: you could assign a key combo to launch terminal tho
[07:48] <TTilus> chronos: what does that "strange debconf dialog box" say?
[07:48] <mindrape> HealthyElijah - ALT + F7 if you CTRL + ALT + F1-F6'd out...
[07:49] <fen> HealthyElijah: ctrl alt f7 gets you back into X if its running proberly.
[07:49] <karencarplet> jim, then contact me with your info via karen @packetpenguin.net and ill drop you an email if your serious
[07:49] <HealthyElijah> i get black screen when i try to get back in
[07:49] <karencarplet> jim, remove the space
[07:49] <fen> HealthyElijah: if its not running correctly sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop and then gdm start
[07:49] <mindrape> HealthyElijah - you may need to killall -HUP gdm or kdm or whatever you use.
[07:49] <fen> gdm restart doesn't do anything
[07:49] <HealthyElijah> xterm not as pretty as x-terminal-emulator
[07:49] <HealthyElijah> hurt da eyes
[07:50] <fen> gnome terminal ftw.
[07:50] <chronos> TTilus: torrentflux configuration, and then error installing database for torrentflux
[07:50] <HealthyElijah> mindrape: everytime?
[07:50] <scguy318> HealthyElijah: i forgot what the Terminal is called in GNOME
[07:50] <ubuntu> fen: i use reboot to restart it when im in recovery mode
[07:50] <mindrape> HealthyElijah - nah... -HUP is just to send a SIGHUP (basically restart the process with current configs... its like a shortcut to what fen is saying but a "less clean way" of doing it)
[07:50] <scguy318> HealthyElijah: prob gnome-terminal
[07:50] <jim> karencarplet: sent
[07:50] <ninnemana> could anyone tell me if there's a terminal command to test my broadband connection speed?
[07:50] <HealthyElijah> when i try to get back i get black screen and cant enter anythhing at all, forces me to reboot
[07:51] <scguy318> ninnemana: wget something? :P
[07:51] <mindrape> HealthyElijah - nah... if you restart the GDM or KDM process it should fix it w/o a reboot.
[07:51] <schweini_> ok. me again. i got disconnected. so, can anybody help me with my problem, which consists of ALL MY FILES being gone after a scheduled fsck (on /), but 'df' still reports the 'correct' disk usago of only 10% free, whereas 'du', 'ls' and all other commands only show 5 syminks, and an EMPTY lost+found ?
[07:51] <karencarplet> jim, kool beans, im off to setting up 3 more boxes and its close to 2 am here, so I better get cracking
[07:51] <ninnemana> i was looking for more of a way to monitor it
[07:51] <HealthyElijah> well, i am just gonna stay away from full screen terminal
[07:51] <mindrape> schweini_ - any chance you got hacked?
[07:51] <schweini_> nope
[07:52] <fen> ubuntu: you can go from recovery mode to full mode with telinit 5
[07:52] <naught101> I have a CD with one large file, but it has a scratch in the middle
[07:52] <scguy318> schweini_: testdisk?
[07:52] <naught101> does anyone know how I could get most of that file back?
[07:52] <HealthyElijah> not what you want but speakeasy.net/speedtest is my fav speedtest
[07:52] <ubuntu> fen: i didnt know that thanks =] 
[07:52] <HealthyElijah> www.speakeasy.net/speedtest
[07:52] <crabgrass> is there any way to have a custom icon for an individual file?
[07:52] <schweini_> naught101: dd_rescue
[07:52] <naught101> ie, copy the whole thing, but skip the scratched bits?
[07:52] <scguy318> naught101: does copying it out not work? CDs dont fail from a single scratch
[07:52] <jim> karencarplet: let me know how the ssh thing goes too. -could- be, rsync might be a good thing to try as well
[07:52] <mindrape> ninnemana - there is no true way to test your current speed other than to DL a file from a server that is closeby (traceroute) and is speedier than your connection...
[07:52] <psychohuman> i have a question...i have the HDD i am on right now, but i just bought a new HDD that i want to put ubuntu on and use - BUT, can i then pull files from this old drive with windows on it...from my new ubuntu HDD?
[07:52] <fen> ubuntu: it also works the other way.
[07:52] <thedash> are there any decent 3D CAD programs for Linux [preferably architecturally-oriented, but not as important]  ?
[07:52] <karencarplet> jim, ok
[07:53] <naught101> scguy318: correct, doesn't work
[07:53] <HealthyElijah> psychohuman: you mean to your new hard drive
[07:53] <naught101> schweini_: I'll give it a try
[07:53] <MasterShrek`> psychohuman yes, ubuntu can read ntfs
[07:53] <jim> everyone says "yeah rsync is cool" but I haven't been able to do good stuff with it
[07:53] <TTilus> chronos: the bugrepo said the problem comes _if_ you choose mysql to be the backend
[07:53] <mindrape> jim - one day you will.. one day.
[07:53] <scguy318> naught101: dd_rescue suggestion then maybe one of those CD cleaning kits? :P
[07:53] <HealthyElijah> psychohuman: you need ntfs-3g to write to your old HDD though
[07:53] <TTilus> chronos: did you have the option to choose between db backends?
[07:53] <naught101> I think it's pretty clean
[07:53] <MasterShrek`> thedash, theres something out there, search synaptic, i know ive see something
[07:54] <TTilus> chronos: ...to use or not use mysql?
[07:54] <psychohuman> awesome, thank you
[07:54] <jim> mindrape: I was trying to get a subset of the debian archive
[07:54] <schweini_> scguy318: testdisk?
[07:54] <jim> thinking I could provide a local mirror
[07:54] <dino_> I'm having problems with getting my MX1000 working in ubuntu? My dinoVo Edge works fine!
[07:54] <jim> but
[07:54] <scguy318> schweini_: data recovery utility
[07:54] <jim> nooooooooo
[07:54] <jim> :)
[07:54] <scguy318> schweini_: might help
[07:54] <n2diy>  naught101, clean the CD, and then try to polish out the scratch with toothpase. GL
[07:54] <mindrape> thedash - Blender can do it... its more of 3D modeling than architectural design though.
[07:54] <chronos> TTilus: yes, I chose the default, being NOT MANUAL because i dont know how it works
[07:54] <TTilus> chronos: the package seems to depend on php-mysql which strongly suggests it requires mysql-server too
[07:54] <psychohuman> ok, well anyone have any last minute advice before i DROP WINDOWS and install ubuntu?
[07:54] <mindrape> TTilus - that would be correct  :)
[07:55] <scguy318> schweini_: perhaps fsck moved inodes into lost+found?
[07:55] <bruenig> psychohuman, consider other distros
[07:55] <TTilus> chronos: hum, "not manual" apparently requires mysql
[07:55] <naught101> n2diy: damn, I didn't realise linux was so high tech!
[07:55] <Veinor> what exactly is lost+found for, anyway?
[07:55] <mindrape> psychohuman - have you check a hardware compatability list or a live cd or are you just jumping blindly?
[07:55] <MasterShrek`> psychohuman, dont look back =D
[07:55] <chronos> TTilus: ok, so i need to cancel present instalation and install mysql client and server
[07:55] <scguy318> Veinor: it's where fsck puts orphaned inodes I believe
[07:55] <fen> chronos: yep
[07:55] <chronos> TTilus: do i try manual or not manual again?
[07:55] <TTilus> chronos: why _not_ install mysql if torrentflux suggests (and apparently genuinely depends on) it
[07:55] <jim> mindrape: I had to write this one script that would run after the rsync put symlinks in there the way I wanted
[07:55] <psychohuman> kinda blindly
[07:55] <Veinor> scguy318: orphaned inodes?
[07:55] <jim> bla... gave up on that
[07:55] <psychohuman> i also like fedora
[07:55] <mindrape> psychohuman - then best of luck... you'll need it.
[07:56] <TTilus> chronos: well, i'd go for installing mysql server
[07:56] <dino_> Shouldnt MX1000 be working automaticly in ubuntu?
[07:56] <psychohuman> haha
[07:56] <n2diy>  naught101, :) That's a good way to remove scratches from Cell Phones, GPSs, etc...
[07:56] <scguy318> Veinor: inodes that due to filesystem damage are not referenced by the filesystem
[07:56] <crabgrass> is there any way to have a custom icon for an individual file?
[07:56] <MasterShrek`> thedash, qcad is what its called
[07:56] <mindrape> psychohuman - if at all possible I'd look for a local Linux User Group (LUG) in your town and see if they can help you install it and maybe give you some pointers...
[07:56] <naught101> scguy318: I don't think so, fsck usually puts them in the base dir of the hard drive
[07:56] <Veinor> ah.
[07:56] <shorthand> how will i know if my ubuntu box has many installed java different versions?
[07:56] <scguy318> naught101: base? really
[07:56] <thedash> MasterShrek` :: Qcad isn't 3D
[07:56] <MasterShrek`> oh it isnt?
[07:56] <naught101> has at least once
[07:56] <schweini_> scguy318: it did that a cople of time a while back (i simply moved them back) but now, it's just empty. and the REALLY weird thing is:
[07:56] <MasterShrek`> i dunno i havent used it lol
[07:57] <schweini_> root@ubuntu:~# du -hs /mnt/
[07:57] <schweini_> 8.0K    /mnt/
[07:57] <schweini_> root@ubuntu:~# df -h /mnt
[07:57] <schweini_> Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
[07:57] <schweini_> /dev/sda1             9.1G  8.0G  617M  93% /mnt
[07:57] <mindrape> psychohuman - Ubuntu is pretty easy to do (especially if you are a seasoned Windows user)... the differences are just enough to make you go nutty though.  If only for the first few months.  If you can make it past 6 months you are golden and you will be happier and have fewer problems than if you stuck with Windows.
[07:57] <MasterShrek`> crabgrass, right click it > properties and click on the icon
[07:57] <TTilus> chronos: i gotta go now and i dont know when i'll be back again, hope you find a solution
[07:57] <mindrape> Thats the mindrape guarantee..
[07:58] <jim> Ima leavin
[07:58] <chronos> TTilus dont worry, thank you!
[07:58] <psychohuman> haha
[07:58] <chronos> TTilus: good luck
[07:58] <jim> on a jet plane... don't know when I'll be back again...
[07:58] <scguy318> naught101: i was under the impression that fsck moves orphaned inodes to /lost+found
[07:58] <mindrape> jim - karaoke is tomorrow night.
[07:58] <crabgrass> MasterShrek`: nothin'... is that becuase i'm using thunar?
[07:58] <naught101> scguy318: maybe it's supposed to...
[07:58] <MasterShrek`> crabgrass, probably, i figured u were using nautilus
[07:58] <jim> oh so you think I was SINGING that... yeesh :)
[07:58] <crabgrass> MasterShrek`: ah.
[07:59] <crabgrass> MasterShrek`: know of any gtkrc things i could do?
[07:59] <MasterShrek`> nope
[07:59] <ubuntu> MasterShrek`: hey its  "iownyou" from yesterday
[07:59] <scguy318> naught101: ?
[07:59] <MasterShrek`> sup ubuntu get your video working?
[07:59] <fen> crabgrass: using xubuntu?
[07:59] <crabgrass> fen: yeah.
[08:00] <ubuntu> MasterShrek`: i did but it was in safe video mode so now im on the live cd
[08:00] <naught101> dunno, pretty sure it moved them to the root dir of my files partition once...
[08:00] <ubuntu> MasterShrek`: so people can help me out more
[08:00] <MasterShrek`> ic ubuntu, what was your video card again?
[08:00] <scguy318> schweini_: have you checked /lost+found?
[08:01] <scguy318> schweini_: you'll have to enter a root shell to list tho
[08:01] <ubuntu> MasterShrek`: im gonig to try install the linux restricted drivers for my card
[08:01] <disinterested> anyone else having issues with k3b since the apt update i got today?
[08:01] <scguy318> schweini_: unfortunately i gtg
[08:01] <schweini_> scguy318: yes. completly utterly empty. nothing there. zilch. no hidden files. nothing
[08:01] <scguy318> schweini_: g/l
[08:01] <ubuntu> MasterShrek`: its a ATI RAdeon 9550
[08:01] <scguy318> schweini_: mm
[08:01] <ubuntu> MasterShrek`: Why?
[08:01] <scguy318> schweini_: there is testdisk, and i gtg, sry
[08:01] <schweini_> <scguy318: thanks, anyhow - gonna need the luck :(
[08:01] <MasterShrek`> just wondering
[08:02] <scguy318> schweini_: you really should dd everything off, and backup too :)
[08:02] <scguy318> schweini_: bai
[08:02] <schweini_> it's my gf's PC :(
[08:02] <naught101> heh... dd_rescue doesn't work over samba, ofcourse..
[08:02] <fen> can anyone suggest something like fspot but more advanced for linux, i'm looking for something thats closer to adobe lightroom.
[08:02] <schweini_> naught101: nope, but it really is quite cool
[08:02] <ubuntu> MasterShrek: if you looked that up on google youll find a bunch of stuff about my card if you search "ubuntu 7.04 drivers for ati 9550" without quotes
[08:03] <ubuntu> MasterShrek: but i dont know witch one will fix it
[08:03] <MasterShrek> ubuntu, it looks like ati has a driver on their site for it
[08:03] <MasterShrek> tried that?
[08:03] <barbie> huy
[08:03] <fen> theres a driver in the repo.
[08:04] <ubuntu> MasterShrek: nope
[08:04] <ubuntu> MasterShrek: how do i try out a driver
[08:04] <MasterShrek> ubuntu, i wouldnt suggest it unless nothing else works
[08:04] <MasterShrek> ubuntu, you would have to download and install it, then restart x
[08:05] <ubuntu> MasterShrek: ok thanks after im done installing witch is taking a very long time 0_o making me mad
[08:05] <ubuntu> MasterShrek: ill try that k?
[08:06] <tarelerul1> I have 3 computer networked and I can ssh in to all them ,but I can vnc to them . my laptop has vnc and I can control it from all the rest of the computer
[08:06] <shorthand> how will i know if my ubuntu box has many installed java different versions?
[08:06] <shorthand> anyone alive?
[08:06] <tarelerul1> The rest vnc don't seem to work
[08:06] <ubuntu> MasterShrek: its said copying files for a really long time now
[08:06] <MasterShrek> ubuntu, it takes a little while sometimes
[08:06] <ubuntu> MasterShrek: why?
[08:07] <MasterShrek> ubuntu, if you install the driver from ati's website though, youll have to recompile it every time your kernel gets upgraded
[08:07] <ubuntu> MasterShrek: its going never mind it was sitting tere for a while tho
[08:07] <MasterShrek> i dunno ubuntu, my buddy was installing and it did the same thing, just be patient
[08:07] <ubuntu> MasterShrek: wow thats really gay
[08:07] <schweini_> anyone know of a channel for filesystem mishaps? there must be one somewhere, where all the desperate souls like my self can turn to when a filesystem screws up....
[08:15] <MasterShrek> !kernel
[08:15] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[08:15] <tonyduke> can i386 version of ubuntu support 4g Ram?
[08:16] <Phlogi> anyone ever used the bcm43xx driver? I can load it here and scan the network but I can't get an ip with dhclient on an unenctrypted network. What can i do?
[08:16] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, did u get the firmware?
[08:16] <tonyduke> cause the stupid 32bit xp dont support it.
[08:16] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: Yes I installed that
[08:16] <Phlogi> the error of the firmware is gone
[08:17] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, are u assigning an essid to the interface before trying to grab an ip?
[08:17] <MasterShrek> is the network encrypted?
[08:18] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: the network is not encrypted, I did assigin a essid
[08:18] <heguru> tonyduke: you can install ubuntu x86 on a machine with 4G ram, 32-bit applications cannot however use 4G RAM directly, there are workarounds (shmfs etc.) but application dependent
[08:18] <Phlogi> the card is a: 02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (rev 01)
[08:18] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, type iwconfig to make sure you entered the essid correctly (if it has spaces you have to surround it in '' )
[08:18] <MasterShrek> same card i got Phlogi
[08:19] <tonyduke> thanks heguru
[08:19] <MaxHR> Hello, using dvd::rip, does anyone know how to rip a dvd.iso file thats on the HD, without manually mounting it? (I've done this before, but don't know how)
[08:20] <ferronica> how to update VLC ?
[08:20] <Tomcat_> ferronica: sudo apt-get upgrade
[08:20] <Tomcat_> ferronica: (In case there is an update)
[08:21] <ferronica> Tomcat_: just to update
[08:21] <ferronica> Tomcat_: just to update vlc
[08:21] <MasterShrek> apt-get upgrade vlc
[08:21] <Tomcat_> ferronica: Mh. Sorry, no idea.
[08:21] <GreyWolfe> Hi, I am having trouble with forwarding ports to my router, can anyone help?
[08:22] <Crush`> anyone know how to suppress INPUT in a bash script?
[08:22] <ferronica> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[08:22] <MasterShrek> GreyWolfe, check the manual for your router
[08:22] <MasterShrek> ferronica, then theres no update for it, any specific reason you want to upgrade it?
[08:23] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: what do you have? which device forwards to the router?
[08:23] <cjae_> what does a percent sign mean in a file name
[08:23] <cjae_> mean
[08:23] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: It is a Siemens 4200,  I am not sure what you mean by what device forwards to the router,
[08:24] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: your question was you have a trouble with forwarding ports to my router, what device is that thats doing the forwarding to the router?
[08:25] <CroX> After the latest updates (linux headers, 2.6.20-16) my X has crashed..
[08:25] <GreyWolfe> Again, I am not sure. I have tried following tutorials online, but I can't access the IP of my router. From what I understand that is how it is done.
[08:25] <CroX> And I can't seem to be able to bring it back up.
[08:25] <MasterShrek> CroX, reinstall your video driver
[08:25] <ferronica> MasterShrek: i think 0.8.6 c is available
[08:25] <ferronica> MasterShrek: and i have 0.8.6
[08:25] <CroX> MasterShrek: How do I do that? Never worked a CLI much and I have big troubles using Lynx to find info..
[08:25] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: okay, lets start from what is the layout of your network, what is connected to which?
[08:26] <GreyWolfe> It is just my computer and the router/modem
[08:26] <MasterShrek> ferronica, i wouldnt worry about it, is there something wrong with the version u have?
[08:26] <MasterShrek> CroX, what kinda card do u have?
[08:26] <HealthyElijah> how do i install super tux cart?
[08:26] <HealthyElijah> noob here
[08:26] <CroX> MasterShrek: Nvidia GeForce 6600 GT
[08:26] <HealthyElijah> there is a sh file
[08:26] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: you router/modem is connected to dsl line?
[08:27] <GreyWolfe> Yea
[08:27] <MasterShrek> CroX, well u could wget the driver from nvidias site, but u can also use a different driver to get a gui and install it the ubuntu way (which i am unfamiliar with)
[08:27] <CyberMad> what is this mean? i tried configure alsa driver, 3stack-6ch-dig 3-jack 6-channel with SPDIF I/O
[08:27] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: and this is not wireless right? btw, you need to prefix your responses to me with my nick
[08:27] <CyberMad> what is 3 jack, 6 channel , SPDIF I/O mean?
[08:27] <MasterShrek> CroX, if you edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change the driver to vesa you should be able to get into a gui
[08:28] <CroX> Ah, I'll try that then.
[08:28] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: Yea, is is wired.
[08:28] <CroX> MasterShrek: Thanks!
[08:28] <CyberMad> i confuse choosing the correct driver
[08:28] <jim> spdif is digital audio, either rca or optical fiber
[08:28] <HealthyElijah> anybody here ever install tremulous
[08:28] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: nothing else between your pc and your router? cat 5 cable right?
[08:28] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: Correct
[08:29] <HealthyElijah> is there a games channel
[08:29] <HealthyElijah> for linux
[08:29] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: any other devices connecting to that router other than your pc?
[08:29] <GreyWolfe> bulmer:  Nope
[08:30] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: are you getting any ip addresses from the router?
[08:30] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: Not sure how to do that, its ifconfig, right?
[08:31] <MasterShrek> if u are connecting through the router right now, then u have an ip
[08:31] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: yes, or command  ip a
[08:31] <kkathman> I wonder why I cannot kill khelper, kthread, kacpid, kacpi_notify, etc once I have stopped all k-apps ??
[08:31] <a514> Hi how do i set permisson for a new formated ext3 partition for rw?
[08:31] <xaxxon_> anyone know why I get a blank screen when installing 7.04 on anforce  680i 8800gts sli system?  I got it to boot into "graphics" mode once by forcing some 'laptop mode lcd' video format...
[08:31] <ferronica> MasterShrek: Do you use Aurora theme ?
[08:31] <MasterShrek> kkathman, sudo killall khelper
[08:31] <MasterShrek> no
[08:31] <Dark_Rain> morning
[08:31] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: I get an ip with ifconfig, but on with command ip a
[08:32] <xaxxon_> but I can't get any type of decent video support.  sabayon works pretty well straight out of the box, but I hvae no interest in sabayon as a long-term solution
[08:32] <kkathman> MasterShrek:  I tried a sudo kill -9 khelper
[08:32] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: Oh wait, I see it now.
[08:32] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: come again?
[08:32] <amo-ej1> the most recent gutsy updates resulted in the nvidia driver being loaded but not being detected by xorg, anybody else seen this ?
[08:32] <MasterShrek> xaxxon_, did u try the driver from nvidias site?
[08:32] <xaxxon_> no
[08:32] <MasterShrek> xaxxon_, 32-bit?
[08:33] <kkathman> MasterShrek:  That did not kill it either :)
[08:33] <kkathman> hmmm this is odd
[08:33] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: Yes, I can see my ip
[08:33] <xaxxon_> 64
[08:33] <xaxxon_> 100 14 19
[08:33] <MasterShrek> xaxxon_, they have a 64 bit driver too
[08:33] <MasterShrek> yep
[08:33] <MasterShrek> you need to kill x to install it though
[08:33] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: what is your ip address? and now what is the issue?
[08:33] <xaxxon_> I can force text console..
[08:33] <a514> Hi i just used cfdisk and made a primary partition formated with mk2.ext3 mounted it now what do i type for rw permissons?! Thanks
[08:34] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: I'm not gonna give out my ip in a public channel, and the issue is that I can't connect to my browesr through firefox using that ip
[08:35] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: can you ping anything like www.yahoo.com?
[08:35] <MasterShrek> GreyWolfe, first off your ip would be in your subnet and giving out the 192.168.whatever is not going to be a security risk, as for the firefox issue, make sure that there arent any rules on your router's config about port 80
[08:35] <a514> Hey !!
[08:35] <cjae_> any good with acid rip
[08:36] <GreyWolfe> MasterShrek: No rules for port 80, other than that it is open
[08:36] <MasterShrek> GreyWolfe, open to your ip? if its open to something else it may not allow it to yours, but im not too sure on that, i dont know networking all that well
[08:36] <GreyWolfe> amidaniel: Sorry, still used to Windows and its 90237409247284230980324 vulnerable points. That paranoia is still around.
[08:37] <ferronica> how to install .rpm package
[08:37] <ferronica> in ubuntu 7.04
[08:37] <MasterShrek> ferronica, you need to convert it to a deb
[08:37] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: can you ping anything like www.yahoo.com?
[08:37] <Ce_gokil> gf5yhnxryn
[08:37] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: Yea
[08:37] <MasterShrek> ferronica, is there a debian package of the program you are trying to install?
[08:37] <adammw> Is it possible to install a ubuntu system to a FAT32/FAT16 filesystem?
[08:37] <MasterShrek> yes adammw but why?
[08:38] <heguru> GreyWolfe: what amidaniel meant is (unless you're using some anonymizing software) you IP is already public by joining IRC
[08:38] <cjae_> when using acid rip to to write dvd to an avi what is being selected that it catches the directors version of movie with commentary not just the movie
[08:38] <GreyWolfe> heguru: Yea, I should have known that. It has been a while since I have used IRC, other than in here.
[08:38] <bulmer> shhh lets not tell GreyWolfe of his know ip address :)
[08:38] <bulmer> knonw*
[08:38] <adammw> i am installing it to a usb.
[08:38] <MasterShrek> adammw, yea it will install
[08:39] <MasterShrek> well it should...lol
[08:39] <adammw> thanks. though i might be back
[08:39] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: How do I get it to stop pinging Yahoo?
[08:39] <MasterShrek> ctrl+c
[08:39] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: you can ping any other web server on the internet with no problems right? like google, ubuntu.org etc
[08:40] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: control C
[08:40] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: Yea, I can ping fine
[08:41] <MasterShrek> GreyWolfe, do you have any other pcs behind your router? and if so does browsing work with them?
[08:41] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: okay, so you can resolve external ip addresses..whats with firefox again?
[08:41] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: This is the only computer
[08:41] <SuperSayjin> hey
[08:41] <SuperSayjin> quck question
[08:41] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: I can't connect to my router through Firefox, when I enter my ip I get an error saying the page can't be loaded.
[08:41] <MasterShrek> GreyWolfe, i personally wouldnt have the port rules on the router for it, it should just work without it
[08:42] <SuperSayjin> does ubuntu throttle ur pc?
[08:42] <ferronica> MasterShrek: of same package
[08:42] <ferronica> MasterShrek: yes
[08:42] <francis> you coming early home today
[08:42] <MasterShrek> GreyWolfe, you dont put your ip in, u put the ip of your router
[08:42] <francis> oops sorry wrong channel
[08:42] <MasterShrek> ferronica, get that and dpkg -i package.deb
[08:42] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: what the heck do you mean by entering your ip address? are you running a web server?
[08:42] <MasterShrek> ferronica, use sudo with that dpkg command too
[08:42] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: I think MasterShrek has the answer I need
[08:42] <heguru> SuperSayjin: can you explain your question?
[08:42] <GreyWolfe> MasterShrek: How do I get the ip of my router?
[08:42] <SuperSayjin> well
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> i have xp
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> and
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> a c2d
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> and for some reason
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> my cpu throttles
[08:43] <ferronica> MasterShrek: okay
[08:43] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: what exactly are you trying to do?
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> from 2ghz to 1ghz
[08:43] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: I need to open ports on my router
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> and i code media and stuff
[08:43] <MasterShrek> SuperSayjin, it will throttle it down if its not being used, at least thats what mine does
[08:43] <ferronica> MasterShrek: one more thing
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> and its not helping me
[08:43] <ferronica> MasterShrek: regarding themes
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> well
[08:43] <heguru> SuperSayjin: well linux uses powersaving mode, it slows it down when idle
[08:43] <ferronica> MasterShrek: Aurora
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> my pc is at 100%
[08:43] <MasterShrek> GreyWolfe, if you are worried about security i wouldnt do that
[08:43] <SuperSayjin> and it still throttles
[08:43] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: type  netstat -ran  and your router should be the gateway address listed
[08:44] <GreyWolfe> MasterShrek: I am trying this because I am getting some REALLY slow downloads
[08:44] <amidaniel> GreyWolfe: It's usually going to be 10.0.0.1 or 192.168.1.1
[08:44] <MasterShrek> u sholdnt have to open ports to surf the web
[08:44] <MasterShrek> CroX, did u get it installed?
[08:44] <GreyWolfe> MasterShrek: And this is for downloads that should be quite fast
[08:44] <CroX> MasterShrek: Up and running again, thanks alot!
[08:44] <shorthand> how how do i install java runtime?
[08:44] <MasterShrek> =D
[08:45] <SuperSayjin> heguru: so would ubuntu do that 2
[08:45] <heguru> SuperSayjin: one min, let me remember how to change powernowd (powersaving daemon) to not throttle
[08:45] <shorthand> java runtime environment <--how can i install this?
[08:45] <MasterShrek> shorthand open synaptic and search for it
[08:45] <GreyWolfe> bulmer: Thanks, that did it.
[08:46] <shorthand> k MasterShrek
[08:46] <bulmer> GreyWolfe: you're welcome
[08:46] <shorthand> does anyone know that yahoo messenger in ubuntu can run webcam already if yes what program should i use or install?
[08:47] <wolfsong> does xorg normally use 40%+ of the CPU?
[08:47] <maurizio> buondi'
[08:47] <MasterShrek> shorthand, you may be able to run yahoo messenger under wine, i dunno how well it would work tho
[08:47] <heguru> SuperSayjin: can you try: sudo cpufreq-selector -g performance
[08:47] <MasterShrek> wolfsong, it shouldnt
[08:48] <shorthand> i have heard pclinuxos can use webcam in yahoo chat?
[08:48] <wolfsong> MasterShrek: what could be causing it?
[08:48] <MasterShrek> wolfsong, i dont know for sure, what kinda of graphics card do u have?
[08:49] <wolfsong> nvidia
[08:49] <MasterShrek> wolfsong, did u install a driver for it?
[08:49] <wolfsong> the restricted driver yes
[08:49] <MasterShrek> hmm
[08:50] <MasterShrek> im not really sure wolfsong
[08:50] <heguru> SuperSayjin: did that help?
[08:50] <SuperSayjin> well
[08:50] <SuperSayjin> 1 sec
[08:50] <SuperSayjin> il try later
[08:50] <SuperSayjin> and report back
[08:50] <heguru> SuperSayjin: ok
[08:52] <MasterShrek> SuperSayjin, ubuntu should automatically change the cpu frequency, theres no need for your processor to be pumpin out juice if its not doing anything
[08:53] <shorthand> can ubuntu also display in the network display icon that if the cat5 is unplugged it will also say unplugged in the icon just like pclinuxos do?
[08:54] <MasterShrek> shorthand, why? cant you tell that its not plugged in? lol
[08:54] <shorthand> i cant tell unless if i checked it manually at the back of my pc
[08:54] <adammw> hey. i've tried to install ubuntu to fat32 but the installer won't allow it. is there a way to do it (i've seen it on other distros)
[08:55] <mzuverink> when the ubuntu server edition boots up to a login prompt i want it to clear the screan minus the login prompt, what must i di to get that to happen?
[08:55] <GreyWolf1> Can anyone offer suggestions as to why I might be getting rediculously slow downloads? I can download and update stuff with the Add/Remove Programs thing at like 500kb/s but when I try anything else it is more like 2 or 2 kb/s
[08:55] <wolfsong> also I'm setting up amarok to use mysql and it says to make sure that the daemon is started in the startup scripts...would that just be under sessions?
[08:55] <MasterShrek> mzuverink, put the word clear at the bottom of /etc/rc.local
[08:56] <mzuverink> MasterShrek, thank you!
[08:56] <MasterShrek> wolfsong, no, it the startup script would be in /etc/init.d
[08:56] <GreyWolf1> I think I should restate that. Most downloads work great, but any from bittorrent ports are extremely slow, and it is not just because of lack of uploaders, as the WoW downloader always has a nice fast source.
[08:57] <redheat> hi everyone
[08:57] <wolfsong> MasterShrek: is there a doc that shows what to do?
[08:57] <redheat> just gotta a question regarding the installation of the new nvidia driver
[08:57] <redheat> do I have to uninstall the old one first
[08:57] <MasterShrek> wolfsong is there a file called mysql in /etc/init.d/   ?
[08:57] <gregshallard> GreyWolf1, are you NAT settings set up correctly?
[08:57] <MasterShrek> redheat how are you installing the driver?
[08:57] <redheat> I'm using a 8600 GT video card, and the drivers I use were the ones released by Nvidia
[08:58] <MasterShrek> redheat, no, it will automatically uninstall them
[08:58] <redheat> simple I posted that on UBuntu Forums
[08:58] <GreyWolf1> gregshallard: No clue
[08:58] <redheat> cool
[08:58] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: and you just downloaded the firmware thats all? -  sorry I had connection problems
[08:58] <Phlogi> I still can't get this broadcom wireless adapter to work :(
[08:58] <redheat> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=497284&highlight=redheat
[08:58] <gregshallard> GreyWolf1, Have you read all the faqs?
[08:58] <redheat> MasterShrek, that was my post on Ubuntu's Forums
[08:58] <redheat> thank you for letting me know about this
[08:58] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, does bcm43xx appear when u type lsmod in a terminal?
[08:58] <redheat> cool
[08:58] <gregshallard> GreyWolf1, And what model router are you using?
[08:59] <redheat> so I should just proceed with the normal installation.
[08:59] <murlidhar> help me please i am not able to use amarok and #amarok channel seems to be quiet channel
[08:59] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: Yes of course... otherwise I could not scan for networks
[08:59] <MasterShrek> yea redheat, remember though, whenever your kernel gets upgraded you have to reinstall that driver
[08:59] <MasterShrek> i suppose Phlogi, what firmware did you use?
[08:59] <GreyWolf1> gregshallard: Siemens 4200, and I am going to guess that I haven't read all the FAQs as I haven't had Ubuntu installed very long
[08:59] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: Just to say I'm quite an advanced linux user since 4 years, so I don't think I did something wrong actually... :)
[08:59] <redheat> yep. Thank you so much MasterShrek.
[09:00] <redheat> hey I forgot to say did you notice this little trick?
[09:00] <gregshallard> GreyWolf1, I had to do the NAT setup under windows aswell...
[09:00] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: the firmware is: bcm43xx-firmware_1.3-1ubuntu2_all.deb
[09:00] <redheat> I have beryl on my system and I don't know if this trick works with it or without it
[09:00] <henryb> how do i change the keyboard layout in kubuntu
[09:00] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, ic, i wonder if thats the same as the firmware i have, i extracted it from the driver file manually
[09:00] <redheat> but here it goes..if you press the ctrl button on your keyboard and the "window"  button you'll get water ripple effect
[09:00] <GreyWolf1> gregshallard: I don't know what you mean by NAT setup, so perhaps I did
[09:01] <redheat> really really awesome
[09:01] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: hmm where did you get it from?
[09:01] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, i actually have an archive of it for a tutorial im working on for it, lemme get u a link
[09:01] <n2diy> henryb: menu>system>prefrences> keyboard?
[09:01] <noob_in_danger> how can i install php5 support for apache2, in chrooted apache2?
[09:01] <gregshallard> GreyWolf1, And what program are you trying to use Bittorrent, Azureus?
[09:01] <mzuverink> MasterShrek, that did not work, I added it right after the exit 0 line
[09:02] <redheat> Again, thank you MasterShrek, and to you all guys/gals have a nice day and take care.
[09:02] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: ok and we have exactly the same wireless card? Do you have an asus notebook too?
[09:02] <heguru> mzuverink: add before exit 0 line
[09:02] <MasterShrek> mzuverink, put it before the exit 0 line
[09:02] <GreyWolf1> gregshallard: I am attempting to use the Blizzard Downloader to download the installer for WoW, it works the same way as Bittorrent
[09:02] <gregshallard> redheat, bye!
[09:02] <henryb> n2diy,  nothing called preferences
[09:02] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, http://www.mediafire.com/?bqn8x4eancv
[09:02] <gregshallard> GreyWolf1, Blizzard Battlenet?
[09:02] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, no i have a compaq, but its a dell mini-pci 1390 (which is actualyl a broadcom 4311)
[09:03] <GreyWolf1> gregshallard: Same company
[09:03] <mzuverink> thanks MasterShrek  and heguru
[09:03] <n2diy> henryb: ok, good luck, that is how it works here on Dapper.
[09:03] <MasterShrek> GreyWolf1, id blame your client, what are u using?
[09:03] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: ok so it should be correct. Where do I need to put that?
[09:03] <MasterShrek> extract it to /lib/firmware
[09:03] <gregshallard> GreyWolf1, Ok then, have a look at this site. http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Siemens/4200/Blizzard_Battlenet.htm
[09:03] <henryb> :S
[09:03] <GreyWolf1> gregshallard: Did that, though I used the World of Warcraft Installer instructions
[09:04] <GreyWolf1> When I put in the ip of my router, it doesn't bring up a page that is anything like that
[09:04] <MasterShrek> GreyWolf1, what bittorrent client are you using?
[09:04] <GreyWolf1> MasterShrek: The Blizzard Downloader has its own client
[09:04] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: ok thanks, I'll try that
[09:04] <GreyWolf1> For the record, I am running it under WINE
[09:04] <Phlogi> and I have to uninstall the .deb first I guess
[09:05] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, i suppose
[09:06] <gregshallard> GreyWolfe, Can you try and find the IP of the router?
[09:06] <GreyWolfe> gregshallard: I have already connected to the router, all it brings me to is an interface for the modem supplied by the ISP
[09:06] <MasterShrek> he knows the ip of the router
[09:09] <gregshallard> GreyWolfe, Sorry I can't really help you then, Have you tried ringing up the ISP and asking about port forwarding?
[09:10] <Selenolycus> Ok, I have a problem: I had a three-hdd system, but one HDD acted funky, so I took it out - is there an easy way to install GRUB on the new primary partition/hdd now?
[09:11] <MasterShrek> !grub
[09:11] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:11] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: I did it but still no luck... do you noticed that too. I do iwconfig eth0 essid "name", then when I do iwconfig it sets the MAC of the AP but the Link Quality goes to 0/100... after a while then, iwconfig says AP: Invalid...
[09:12] <MasterShrek> mine works just fine Phlogi, once in a great while ill get dropped from the net, but usually its pretty good
[09:12] <bullgard4> Is there a difference between 'system beep' and 'system bell'?
[09:12] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: :( what kernel do you use?
[09:12] <Selenolycus> bullgard4: my guess would be system bell = soundcard, system beep = system speaker
[09:12] <Selenolycus> But I have no idea.
[09:12] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, 2.6.20-16-lowlatency
[09:14] <Phlogi> so it can't be that... hmm do you have any idea... I'm at a point of giving up and then remove linux :(
[09:14] <Phlogi> again you just copied that firmware and it worked MasterShrek
[09:14] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, i would suggest holding out for another month, gutsy will be released and its got a much newer kernel
[09:15] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, yea, have you restarted since? try rmmod bcm43xx followed by modprobe bcm43xx
[09:15] <Phlogi> I did both ;)
[09:15] <Phlogi> damn why does the scan work but nothing else! anyone has any idea?
[09:15] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, i am running 64 bit, but i dont know if that matters
[09:16] <henryb> gnome ftw
[09:16] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: it should not... actually yours maybe should not work but mine should of course :)
[09:16] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, you need a wep or wpa key for your network?
[09:16] <Phlogi> if you set the essid, then iwconfig says link quality 0, does it on your machine too?
[09:16] <henryb> i am the onl one who have had a problem with the nvidia manager not writing to xorg.conf ??
[09:17] <Phlogi> I'm using unencrytped right now to test
[09:17] <henryb> and how do i delete a network key for a wireless network
[09:17] <henryb> so i am forced to enter it again
[09:17] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, mine says 91/100
[09:17] <Phlogi> strnge
[09:17] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, so there must be something different with your card
[09:18] <Balachmar> How can I display the userlist in xchat?
[09:18] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: something is wrong yes...
[09:19] <heguru> henryb: do you have gconf-editor?
[09:19] <henryb> yeah
[09:19] <heguru> henryb: if yes, follow these steps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager#head-d2b310228dc887b6cddf4465b6a53cdc4dc9be28
[09:19] <mssever> Balachmar: View > User list
[09:19] <henryb> didnt change anything
[09:19] <henryb> my resolution is still the same
[09:20] <henryb> when i restart >P
[09:20] <BarryToeman> What is the name of the graphical .deb installer?
[09:20] <Balachmar> mssever: I don't have view...
[09:20] <henryb> hmm not gconf
[09:20] <MasterShrek> BarryToeman, synaptic
[09:20] <mssever> Balachmar: hmmm... Try <Ctrl>F7
[09:20] <Phlogi> can I get a copy of the next kubuntu release already to test out?
[09:20] <mssever> BarryToeman: or gdebi
[09:20] <Balachmar> mssever:nothing happens
[09:21] <heguru> henryb: if you just want to remove the WEP/WPA key then System -> Administration -> Keyring Manager
[09:21] <heguru> henryb: right click the Wireless Network Key and delete
[09:21] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, do u have any gui programs running that might be interfering with it?
[09:21] <BarryToeman> MasterShrek: thanks.  it wasn't synaptic.  I have a barebones Ubuntu install and couldn't remember the name of it...
[09:21] <mssever> Balachmar: That's odd... You must be using a different version than I am? (this is the first time I've used XChat)
[09:21] <henryb> heguru, thanks
[09:22] <Balachmar> mssever: I'm using the default version on ubuntu feisty
[09:22] <mssever> Balachmar: I'm using 2.8.4
[09:22] <salamkenal2> hello how to get winbind working with wine
[09:22] <mssever> Balachmar: So am I... Weird
[09:22] <Balachmar> mssever: I am using 0.18...
[09:22] <salamkenal2> hello how to get winbind working with wine
[09:22] <heguru> salamkenal2: winbind has nothing to do with wine
[09:23] <WaltzingAlong> !repeat salamkenal2
[09:23] <heguru> salamkenal2: unless you tell what you really want
[09:23] <MasterShrek> !patience | salamkenal2
[09:23] <ubotu> salamkenal2: 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
[09:23] <sensei> Ok, this is fricking weird, it might be me being lame, or it might be pure magic.. We've got two ubuntu servers which every odd 10 minutes loses connectivity. Can't SSH in, can't ping, nothing.. If I go to the servers, ping an external address, then it works and I can SSH in again for another ten or so minutes.. There's no networkmanager, avahi or anything that could automagically reconfigure anything running. I suspected the e100 driver after reading some 
[09:23] <Balachmar> mssever: ahh I see, I have xchat gnome, should use normal xchat
[09:23] <mssever> Balachmar: ?? You did say XChat, right?
[09:23] <mssever> Balachmar: oh
[09:23] <sensei> There's an ARP entry in the router for both machines as they boot up, then if I clear the ARP, they don't get a new one
[09:23] <Balachmar> brb
[09:23] <salamkenal2> so then how to get winbind working with samba
[09:24] <sensei> So I have to go in and ping something for an ARP entry to be created, then it works
[09:24] <salamkenal2> there is a problem with ntlm_auth when i using wine
[09:24] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: yes that network manager in kde... hmm bad?
[09:24] <heguru> salamkenal2: why are you using wine with ntlm_auth?
[09:24] <salamkenal2> just don no
[09:25] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, maybe
[09:25] <MasterShrek> worth a shot to try without it running
[09:25] <salamkenal2> the win apllication use sql native client
[09:25] <salamkenal2> and this not working well
[09:25] <HealthyElijah> where is bittorrent located in ubuntu?
[09:25] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: so I may just shutdown that desktop tool?
[09:25] <esclavo> Healthy: use k-torrent
[09:25] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, id try it
[09:25] <HealthyElijah> oh thats right terminal
[09:26] <mssever> Balachmar: Welcome back
[09:26] <HealthyElijah> command not found
[09:26] <Balachmar> mssever: and now I do have a user list :) thanks
[09:26] <WaltzingAlong> HealthyElijah: install it. sudo aptitude install ktorrent  azureus bittornado bittorrent               whatever you want
[09:26] <esclavo> Healthy: synaptic package manager
[09:26] <HealthyElijah> i saw bittorrent in here once and now i cannot find it
[09:27] <jan_> anyone else has ldap users here ?
[09:27] <heguru> salamkenal2: do you have a windows domain?
[09:27] <mssever> HealthyElijah: k-torrent is for KDE, so if you use GNOME, it might look a bit out of place
[09:27] <salamkenal2> no
[09:27] <heguru> salamkenal2: the SQL Server that the client calls, is it part of Active Directory?
[09:27] <BarryToeman> I have gdebi and gdebi-gtk, but they refuse to open deb files....python error.
[09:28] <HealthyElijah> i just want to run the torrent that is already on here
[09:28] <salamkenal2> heguru: but when i call it in the win i never have domain
[09:28] <heguru> salamkenal2: well then you don't need to configure winbind
[09:29] <salamkenal2> ow
[09:29] <salamkenal2> where i can get the latest samba?
[09:29] <CorpseFeeder> Dudes!!! Anyone know a good place to get some nice "script" looking fonts for Ubuntu? I got tonnes of fonts, but they're all like times/courier/helvetica style....
[09:29] <salamkenal2> and how to cek samba version
[09:29] <Phlogi> hmm no luck MasterShrek, but maybe the link quality is just too bad, because with my personal notebook I even have some troubles.... so I'll try to move nearer to the AP later. Do you have any other idea?
[09:29] <HealthyElijah> isnt bitorent in one of the menus?
[09:29] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, that would be a good idea
[09:30] <heguru> salamkenal2: smbd -V
[09:30] <mssever> HealthyElijah: depends on if you have a bittorrent client installed
[09:30] <HealthyElijah> i saw it once
[09:30] <up365> HealthyElijah,  it's in Add/Remove Applications
[09:30] <HealthyElijah> i thougth
[09:31] <Phlogi> Can I already get a rc or preview of gutsy?
[09:31] <GNine> bittorrent has dependencie on gnome-desktop.
[09:31] <HealthyElijah> yes in add/remove it is checked as installed but i cannot find it in the gui menus
[09:31] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, yea
[09:31] <punzada> HealthyElijah, I would reccomend not using the regular bittorrent client that comes with it (which is typically located under 'Internet') instead install Deluge Torrent by deluge-torrent in the terminal
[09:31] <Evanlec> !gutsy | Phlogi
[09:31] <ubotu> Phlogi: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[09:31] <threethirty> hey all
[09:31] <CorpseFeeder> is there any extra font packs or something in the repositories?
[09:31] <MasterShrek> CorpseFeeder, mstcorefonts
[09:31] <GNine> i use nicotine.
[09:31] <HealthyElijah> i understand
[09:31] <WaltzingAlong> CorpseFeeder: there are lots of font packages already available, yes
[09:32] <HealthyElijah> but it isnt under internet
[09:32] <MasterShrek> CorpseFeeder, msttcorefonts
[09:32] <salamkenal2> heguru: where i can get the latest of samba
[09:32] <threethirty> is anyone else having issues with the 2.6.20-16 kernel update
[09:32] <MasterShrek> two t's
[09:32] <punzada> The regular bittorrent client is lacking.
[09:32] <HealthyElijah> i just want to see what it even is before downloading new versions
[09:32] <CorpseFeeder> ok.. I'll look into that
[09:32] <HealthyElijah> ive never used it before
[09:32] <heguru> salamkenal2: ubuntu comes with upto date samba
[09:32] <GNine> !nicotine
[09:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nicotine - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:32] <MasterShrek> threethirty, be more specific than 'issue'
[09:32] <cjae_> anyone here know about openpgp
[09:32] <HealthyElijah> ive always used revconnect for windows
[09:32] <salamkenal2> heguru: cause in my ubuntu i just have 3.0.24
[09:32] <punzada> I have it listed under Applications->Internet->BitTorrent
[09:32] <GNine> !nicotine-plus
[09:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nicotine-plus - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:32] <heguru> salamkenal2: thats a recent stable version
[09:32] <punzada> however yours may have been uninstalled
[09:33] <GNine> what??  ubotu.. c'mon
[09:33] <GNine> heh
[09:33] <MasterShrek> !info nicotine
[09:33] <ubotu> nicotine: graphical client for the SoulSeek peer-to-peer system. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.6+dfsg-1 (feisty), package size 451 kB, installed size 2296 kB
[09:33] <punzada> you can go to the synaptic package manager and reinstall it
[09:33] <up365> doesn't it show when you "open with" for a torrent
[09:33] <psypher246> hey everyone, can someone please help me, am i going crazy or something, is there not supposed to be a LAMP install option on the 7.04 server cd?
[09:33] <salamkenal2> but the wine wanna 3.0.25 or above :(
[09:33] <HealthyElijah> how do i get the icon back?
[09:33] <threethirty> MasterShrek: where the system locks up and if you restart you get thrown into the Command Line to run fsck all night.
[09:33] <cjae_> I know what my public key is now how do I find out my private key?
[09:34] <WaltzingAlong> psypher246: sudo aptitude              /lamp                       find lamp-server               +                     g
[09:34] <mssever> psypher246: I don't know, but it's easy to install everything you need without such an option
[09:34] <a514> PLEASE code a FSTAB GUI!!
[09:34] <MasterShrek> not here threethirty, mine runs fine with 16
[09:34] <WaltzingAlong> cjae_: .ssh/id_rsa
[09:34] <MasterShrek> a514, gparted
[09:34] <CorpseFeeder> MasterShrek: ok.. it tells me apparently I already have mstcorefonts installed... are there any others?
[09:34] <psypher246> i now, but thats not the point
[09:34] <up365> HealthyElijah, I suggest deluge, much better than bittorrent or bittornado
[09:34] <MasterShrek> i dunno CorpseFeeder
[09:34] <Beta-guy> when will the next prelease Ubuntu be released, and will be released for PS3?
[09:34] <WaltzingAlong> CorpseFeeder: yes. search for fonts font ttf and so on
[09:35] <Alex_Gaynor> Is there a way to install something that apt-get wants the ubuntu disk for without actually having the disk?
[09:35] <cjae_> WaltzingAlong, may I speak to you in another channel perhaps?
[09:35] <threethirty> MasterShrek: this happened to me last kernel update too, im now way too familiar with launchpad
[09:35] <GNine> last kernel update: status operational. nothing follows.
[09:35] <MasterShrek> Beta-guy, i think i heard something about that
[09:35] <cjae_> WaltzingAlong, this one is quite busy
[09:35] <HealthyElijah> up365: I have never used any of them before, let me just see what it is all about
[09:35] <HealthyElijah> i found that in edit menus bittorrent got unslected somehow
[09:35] <dgjones> Beta-guy, the next Ubuntu release is due on 18th October, not sure if there's a another test release between now & then though
[09:35] <MasterShrek> threethirty, dont upgrade your kernel, its probably not that much different anyway
[09:35] <psypher246> so the easy install lamp in 15 minutes claim does not apply to feisty or anything other than LTS?
[09:36] <Beta-guy> thanks, will it be out for PS3?
[09:36] <Alex_Gaynor> psypher246: I had LAMP installed in way under 15 minutes with feisty server
[09:36] <MasterShrek> i dont know for sure Beta-guy
[09:36] <psypher246> Alex_Gaynor: did u have an option on the install cd for that?
[09:36] <Alex_Gaynor> psypher246: Yes
[09:36] <mssever> psypher246: I've never used the server CD, but I could install LAMP in less than 15 minutes on stock Ubuntu
[09:36] <psypher246> then what have i downloaded???
[09:37] <Alex_Gaynor> Is tehre a way to install unzip without the ubuntu cd?
[09:37] <psypher246> i even did a md5
[09:37] <threethirty> MasterShrek: but i worry when I dont have "important security updates", old windows anxiety
[09:37] <hmhowie> psypher246: i can't remember how long it took me on standard feisty desktop to install a lamp stack, but it must have been about 10 minutes of waiting for synaptic to download, unpack and install the files
[09:37] <psypher246> i keep downloading the server cd, done it 3 times now and keep NOT seeing the easy lamp option like in LTS
[09:37] <up365> HealthyElijah, ok I'm new to torrents myself been thru the "bits", transmission, and have landed on Deluge
[09:37] <heguru> Alex_Gaynor: System -> Administration -> Software Sources then uncheck the cdrom (i guess)
[09:37] <MasterShrek> threethirty, dont worry about that, just because software is updated doesnt mean its better
[09:37] <Alex_Gaynor> heguru: I'm on a sever install(no GUI)
[09:37] <hmhowie> psypher246: don't worry about that. just install the os and then use apt-get
[09:37] <Alex_Gaynor> Plus I'm SSH'd in
[09:38] <mssever> psypher246: sudo aptitude install apache2 mysql-server php5
[09:38] <murlidhar> can anybody tell me how to register my nickname in  the freenode network . i did read the faq but could make anything out of it
[09:38] <psypher246> hm: thats not what i'm asking, i can install the server cd and then do all the rest, but there is an option on the start to speed that up
[09:38] <heguru> Alex_Gaynor: better, edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file and comment out the like with cdrom (add #)
[09:38] <MasterShrek> psypher246, thats stupid, u want to install LAMP in 15 minutes and youve downloaded the cd 3 times? lol
[09:38] <psypher246> still not the point
[09:38] <salamkenal2> heguru: i ask in #winehq they told me that the new version of samba can make wine working
[09:38] <salamkenal2> heguru:how can iget the new release? where can i update it
[09:38] <mssever> psypher246: How can it be any faster than the command I just gave?
[09:38] <heguru> salamkenal2: well what version of ubuntu are you using?
[09:38] <salamkenal2> 7.04
[09:38] <a514> how do i update fstab with a uuid= ?
[09:38] <damianl> hi, where is liblame.so.0 located? a search of my hdd comes up with nothing but i just installed it so it should be there
[09:38] <MasterShrek> salamkenal2, wine and samba have nothing to do with eachother
[09:39] <hmhowie> psypher246: maybe the option was removed for feisty server edition. i dunno. it just means typing one line into the terminal
[09:39] <psypher246> guys i understand all of that, all Iwant to know, SHOULD feisty have the option?
[09:39] <minerale> how can I tell if my current video card can support aiglx ?
[09:39] <Alex_Gaynor> heguru: Nice, thanks
[09:39] <mssever> psypher246: dunno
[09:39] <salamkenal2> but ntlm_auth does
[09:39] <salamkenal2> i have try it
[09:39] <heguru> MasterShrek: actually the do.. ntlm_auth code from samba is used for NTLMSSP auth in WINE now
[09:39] <damianl> hi, where is liblame.so.0 located? a search of my hdd comes up with nothing but i just installed it so it should be there
[09:39] <hmhowie> psypher246: dunno either
[09:39] <a514> what makes the uuid= in fstab?
[09:39] <salamkenal2> and i have ask to wine developer :(
[09:40] <hmhowie> damianl: i can imagine liblame being in /usr/lib
[09:40] <mssever> damianl: sudo updatedb && locate liblame
[09:40] <Tomcat_> a514: blkid
[09:40] <MasterShrek> damianl, type: locate liblame
[09:40] <heguru> have you tried: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade samba
[09:40] <damianl> ah thanks should of known that one myself
[09:40] <heguru> salamkenal2: let me check the latest of samba in fesity repository
[09:40] <damianl> :)
[09:41] <GNine> !ping
[09:41] <ubotu> pong
[09:41] <salamkenal2> ok please
[09:41] <heguru> salamkenal2: sorry the last in feisty is 3.0.24
[09:41] <heguru> salamkenal2: gutsy has 3.0.26
[09:41] <esclavo> up365: deluge does look pretty nice....ktorrent
[09:41] <esclavo> s...till is pretty good..
[09:41] <psypher246> thanks, got another question. if u running dapper and there is a specific version of an app you want to run, that is only available in feisty/gusty, would you rather somehow try and resolve all dependencies via apt or just compile a more updated version?
[09:41] <salamkenal2> 7.04 is feisty?
[09:42] <heguru> salamkenal2: yes
[09:42] <damianl> i seem to be using search under the places menu alot, how regularly should i run updatedb
[09:42] <heguru> salamkenal2: gutsy is the next (underdevelopment) version
[09:42] <GNine> uuid . devices and partitions.  name calling.
[09:42] <salamkenal2> emm how can i get the new ones
[09:42] <mssever> psypher246: Compile..If you upgrade the wrong libs, you'll end up with a seriously borked system. I did that once
[09:42] <salamkenal2> i must compile it?
[09:42] <heguru> salamkenal2: you can download samba and compile it yes
[09:43] <psypher246> yeah i did that too
[09:43] <murlidhar> Has anybody used linkage torrent client
[09:43] <MasterShrek> woohoo netsplit
[09:43] <GNine> netsplit in progress?
[09:43] <mssever> damianl: I think that it runs itself periodically
[09:43] <salamkenal2> ic ic
[09:43] <damianl> cool thanks
[09:43] <esclavo> ya i upgraded lib to .16 and it fux0rd it up
[09:43] <psypher246> and dependencies for the compile, compile those too?
[09:43] <hmhowie> psypher246: i'd probably recommend updating to feisty/gutsy. you could try downloading the deb for feisty/gutsy and seeing it it will install.
[09:43] <mssever> damianl: I run updatedb if I want to find something shortly after installing it... otherwise, I don't bother
[09:44] <psypher246> sorry i also forgot how do u auto add someone's name while chatting here?
[09:44] <rzimek78> how many virtual terminals I can have and in what file I can change it?
[09:44] <damianl> cool fair enough i'll leave it then
[09:44] <damianl> btw is liblame in the repos?
[09:44] <mssever> psypher246: You can grab the source package (apt-get source) and use pbuilder
[09:44] <psypher246> yeah i could do that. but if you REALLY want to stick with dapper for the LTS, should be fine just compiling?
[09:44] <psypher246> ah thats cool
[09:44] <damianl> the one i installled doesnt seem to contain the actual liblame.so.0
[09:45] <murlidhar> psypher246: if u are using xchat then use tab to autocomplete
[09:45] <mssever> psypher246: That's what I did for awhile
[09:45] <CorpseFeeder> Seems like I have all the font packs in the repositories installed already. I guess no one makes any nice scripty fonts for linux then...
[09:45] <MasterShrek> CorpseFeeder, any font should work in linux, even windows fonts
[09:45] <mssever> psypher246: It's also sometimes useful to compile Debian's source packages
[09:45] <salamkenal2> huguru: i know i'm dummy, but how to compile the samba :P i cannot find any link to help me compile the samba
[09:45] <MasterShrek> CorpseFeeder, if you torrent a font pack you should be able to use it
[09:45] <damianl> can someone here send me there liblame.so.0 off there hdd?
[09:45] <psypher246> mssever: ah so i can add a debian source repo and use phbuilder to create a package or install it?
[09:46] <GNine> i like the default ubuntu fonts
[09:46] <mssever> psypher246: Yes
[09:46] <GNine> very much readable
[09:46] <heguru> salamkenal2: www.samba.org download the latest sources, extract, read the INSTALL file
[09:46] <hmhowie> mssever: have a look in /etc/cron.daily :)
[09:46] <MasterShrek> salamkenal2, extract the files, go into the directory, then: ./configure && make && sudo make install
[09:46] <psypher246> cool, thanks
[09:46] <humbolto>  how can I apply gconf settings. I need to logout and login again to apply gconf settings to evolution. evolution is not running, when I do the changes.
[09:46] <Phlogi_> MasterShrek: I'll try ndiswrapper now ^^
[09:46] <salamkenal2> emm ic
[09:46] <damianl> can someone here send me there liblame.so.0 off there hdd?
[09:46] <mssever> hmhowie: I knew it ran periodically...
[09:46] <CorpseFeeder> MasterShrek: ok.. I'd tried searching, but normally I keep coming up with commercial fonts you have to pay for ;(.. but I will see if I can locate some free (or torrented) ones...
[09:46] <murlidhar> has anybody used linkage torrent client here??????
[09:46] <heguru> humbolto: most gconf settings are immediate
[09:47] <esclavo> humbolto, you need to restart the service
[09:48] <damianl> ooh they renamed it, i et it now
[09:48] <humbolto> heguru: does not seem to be the case for evolution
[09:48] <damianl> get
[09:48] <damianl> :)
[09:48] <noob_in_danger> hey. is there any way to make a chroot of my system, so i can install services i want and then run them all chrooted, without the need of copying files from my default system to a chroot dir?
[09:48] <humbolto> esclavo: shich service?
[09:48] <disinterested> murlidhar: linkage torrent?
[09:48] <humbolto> esclavo:  which service?
[09:48] <esclavo> oh for evolution nm
[09:48] <humbolto> esclavo: network-manager for evolution? you are kidding me.
[09:48] <jim> dangernoob!
[09:48] <GNine> noob_in_danger, sounds like its own name sake
[09:49] <hmhowie> noob_in_danger: you can mount part of the filesystem (/bin and /usr/bin forexample) in the new directory and then chroot
[09:49] <mssever> noob_in_danger: Could you use hard links? (note that I really don't know much about chroot)
[09:49] <murlidhar> disinterested: yes linkage torrent client
[09:49] <heguru> humbolto:  try: killall evolution-data-server-1.12
[09:49] <disinterested> i just use azureus i never heard of linkage torrent
[09:50] <murlidhar> disinterested: it is very light i heard and for the past 2 days i have been tryin to compile it
[09:50] <jim> Gloria's cousin?
[09:50] <Alex_Gaynor> Is ubuntu server 7.04 missing the strings command, or am I going crazy?
[09:50] <eck> if you want a lightweight bt client just use rtorrent, it's in the repos
[09:50] <psychouman> i am trying to install ubuntu on a brand new HDD, do i need to format the drive with something before i use boot load
[09:50] <GNine> nicotine here.  i had a very much different idea of what azureus was about
[09:51] <disinterested> oh ok
[09:51] <jim> Alex_Gaynor: strings is probably in binutils
[09:51] <MasterShrek> psychouman, no, the installer will do it for you
[09:51] <disinterested> have u tried azureus?
[09:51] <psychouman> cool cool
[09:51] <MasterShrek> azeureus sucks
[09:51] <Alex_Gaynor> jim: Ok thanbks
[09:51] <murlidhar> yes it is good but a bit heavy
[09:51] <GNine> any OS install formats the drive and makes a bootloader
[09:52] <jim> Alex_Gaynor: you compilin stuff?
[09:52] <psychouman> awesome
[09:52] <murlidhar> got lot of features which i probably will never use
[09:52] <Alex_Gaynor> jim: playing with an encrypted file
[09:52] <psychouman> also, i have a 64 bit amd...should i use the respective version of ubuntu?
[09:52] <jim> Alex_Gaynor: do you compile things periodically?
[09:53] <GNine> i think one reason people like azureus is .. flashy colors and cool interface.. i dont need that
[09:53] <wabid> is there any way to stop the little gray box from zooming out when i open firefox
[09:53] <wabid> that draws the window
[09:53] <Alex_Gaynor> jim: Pretty much never, I manage to use Linux because of apt
[09:53] <hmhowie> psychouman: i would say: probably. you'll have to follow a number of howtos to get things like flash working, however
[09:53] <MasterShrek> psychouman, you may run into a few problems, like flash not working nicely under 64 bit, but you should have better performance
[09:53] <D4N`> sup?
[09:53] <jim> psychouman: (debian answer) or i386 arch, should also run
[09:53] <murlidhar> Ok OK lets stop the WAR about torrent clients
[09:53] <jim> sip!
[09:53] <hermann_348> http://www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=6460491
[09:53] <hermann_348> http://www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=6460491
[09:54] <MasterShrek> psychouman, i run 64 bit, works nicely, if u have problems ill help ya
[09:54] <a514> how-to make a new fstab with blkid ?
[09:54] <D4N`> no
[09:54] <psychouman> awesome thanks
[09:54] <eck> a514: you mean using a uuid?
[09:54] <murlidhar> can anybody make a debian package for linkage torrent client and i am dying to test it
[09:54] <jan_> anyone else has troubles with ldap users and thunderbird ?
[09:55] <GNine> if you know your hardware. match it to the best possible softcode.
[09:55] <MasterShrek> murlidhar, why not just compile it?
[09:55] <WaltzingAlong> murlidhar: has always interested me that they are called clients when really they do some serving as well; not a client like a web browser is or an ftp client is
[09:55] <a514> eck Yeah uuid a new fstab
[09:55] <eck> a514: you need to use vol_id to determine the uuid of the devices
[09:55] <Crozar> Mac OSX has boot camp , can we bootcamp linux as well as the 2 defaults?
[09:55] <eck> sudo vol_id /dev/foo
[09:55] <murlidhar> MasterShrek: i have tried to but not able to
[09:56] <WaltzingAlong> though you need not use the uuid, could still use /dev/hda1 and such
[09:56] <sethk> Crozar, what's boot camp?
[09:56] <Crozar> http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/
[09:56] <Crozar> its like using grub but it uses it before the computer starts up from bootcamp method
[09:56] <sethk> Crozar, I'll read that, thanks.
[09:57] <Crozar> then you choose windows or mac and it will start it normaly like grub does , so its a DualBoot , but can we add ubuntu withit?
[09:57] <murlidhar> WaltzingAlong: yes u r right but it helps u to read a torrent and download files
[09:57] <sethk> Crozar, yes, if it can boot both, it should be possible to add another O/S.
[09:58] <a514> eck ok then?
[09:58] <murlidhar> compiling linkage client is difficult since it requires libtorrent and libtorrent too requires compiling
[09:58] <GNine> grub only manages availability of installed OSes
[09:58] <eck> a514: then edit /etc/fstab?
[10:00] <GNine> not 'only' .. there are some things that can be done with grub .. but mainly its about pickin OS out of a line up
[10:03] <a514> Crozar PearPC?
[10:04] <iXi> please point me to a guide explaining how to get WPA to work with 3com 3crwe154g72 wireless card, thanks!
[10:04] <a514> eck what do i type after uuid=# ?
[10:05] <MasterShrek> iXi, did u have to do any additional setup for the wireless card, or did it work out of the box?
[10:05] <MasterShrek> a514, in /etc/fstab?
[10:06] <eck> a514: it should look something like this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38527/
[10:06] <iXi> MasterShrek, it worked right away
[10:06] <a514> fstab uuid=# then what? is there a way to > vol_id into fstab with a option menu gui for me?
[10:07] <eck> the details are in the fstab man page
[10:07] <iXi> MasterShrek, but when i'm selecting my wireless network i'm told the required security settings isn't supported
[10:08] <MasterShrek> ixi, type: sudo apt-get install wpasupplicant    in a terminal
[10:08] <iXi> MasterShrek, wpasupplicant is installed
[10:08] <a514> so i c&p the uuid into fstab ? someone should make a gnome menu option gui for newbies
[10:09] <CorpseFeeder> ok.. I got some fonts. Now what? How do I install them? I tried to extract them into /usr/share/fonts but it tells me I don't have permission....
[10:09] <MasterShrek> iXi, youll need to probably do wpa using the command line then, use the wext driver
[10:09] <MasterShrek> !wpa
[10:09] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:09] <rausb0> iXi: which wireless chipset? not all will work with wpa_supplicant
[10:09] <iXi> MasterShrek, prism54
[10:10] <iXi> rausb0, prism54
[10:10] <MasterShrek> CorpseFeeder, open a terminal and type: sudo mv [file]  /usr/share/fonts
[10:10] <rausb0> iXi: okay, i think it should work with wpa_supplicant then (never had a prism54 though)
[10:10] <MasterShrek> CorpseFeeder, if they have the same file extension u can do *.ttf for example to move them all
[10:11] <MasterShrek> oh yea it will work
[10:11] <CorpseFeeder> MasterShrek: ok, thanks, that sounds sensible...
[10:11] <fractal2> anyone here have experience dualbooting linux with an Acer computer?
[10:12] <iXi> MasterShrek, do you think the wext driver SHOULD work? Right now I've done all that ndiswrapper stuff..
[10:12] <iXi> !wpa
[10:12] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:12] <MasterShrek> iXi, it may work, try hostap if it doesnt
[10:13] <xoRock> CorpseFeeder, create new folder in your home directory "  .fonts  " and copy all your new fonts there
[10:13] <rausb0> iXi: if you use ndiswrapper for your card, you must use wext in wpa_supplicant
[10:13] <MasterShrek> fractal2, dual booting shouldnt be hardware specific
[10:13] <Madne1> anyone has any good ISO mounter programs?
[10:13] <rausb0> iXi: no sorry, its ndiswrapper also in wpa_supplicant
[10:14] <eck> Madne1: my favorite one is mount
[10:14] <MasterShrek> lol
[10:14] <xoRock> Madne1, iso master
[10:14] <eck> mount -o loop foo.iso /path/to/mountpoint
[10:14] <iXi> rausb0, ok! that's what i've tried
[10:14] <uptownben> Hi All. How do I resolve the "qc timeout" error on my notebook when I plug in a compact flash card?
[10:15] <fractal2> MasterShrek: what concerned me is that the hard drive is already partitioned by default into C and D. D is where user image backups are stored. I don't want to mess that up.
[10:15] <Madne1> lol>
[10:15] <Irreducibilis> I am installing ubuntu right now to a 4 gig USB flash drive, in the backround, under Qemu, accelerated with Kqemu. This is USB 1.1.... even still, it has been installing for 3 hours now and its only at 47%
[10:15] <rausb0> iXi: then you should kill network manager als test with wpa_supplicant manually (or have you already done this?)
[10:15] <salamkenal2> heguru: i cannot get the install instruction is samba source code can i install it with calling install.sh?
[10:15] <Madne1> wait i can mount using terminal?
[10:15] <Irreducibilis> Its installing at a steady speed of about 1% every 5 to 6 minutes, is this normal even for USB 1.1?
[10:15] <Madne1> !iso
[10:15] <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.
[10:15] <Madne1> nice
[10:15] <eck> Irreducibilis: can you not just install it normally (i.e. not within qemu)?
[10:16] <Irreducibilis> eck: No, I am using it specifically as an embedded within windows flash drive install
[10:16] <hmhowie> Irreducibilis: even for usb1.1 that's pretty slow
[10:16] <iXi> rausb0, nope..just kill network manager and run the wpa_supplicant test with ndiswrapper?
[10:16] <Madne1> uhhh whats the mountpoint
[10:16] <Madne1> !mountpoint
[10:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mountpoint - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:16] <Irreducibilis> !speed
[10:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about speed - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:16] <Irreducibilis> .........
[10:16] <eck> Madne1: it's the directory you want to mount the device/file to
[10:16] <Madne1> any dir i want?
[10:17] <eck> correct
[10:17] <Madne1> ok
[10:17] <Irreducibilis> So what should I do? Wait 4 more hours for it to finish and then work just fine or stop it now and try to find a faster way?
[10:17] <Irreducibilis> 47%
[10:17] <ghost> does anyone know how to configure xchat to receive transfers
[10:17] <rausb0> iXi: no, after killing network manager you have to create a appropriate wpa_supplicant.conf file using wpa_passphrase and then run wpa_supplicant with some commandline options
[10:18] <overclucker> Irreducibilis, just install it on disk, and cp it over?
[10:18] <HannaH1> ! firefox
[10:18] <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
[10:18] <cjae_> is there a dameon or something to refresh /usr/bin to it does not take so long to open it 2000+ executables besides cli
[10:19] <rausb0> iXi: look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo and scroll down to "Configuring wpa_supplicant"
[10:19] <overclucker> Irreducibilis, go get a movie or somthin, as long as it's actually installing it
[10:19] <jim> cjae_:/usr/bin is generally huge
[10:19] <iXi> rausb0, I've done sudo wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dndiswrapper -w
[10:19] <iXi> rausb0, ...but not with nm killed
[10:19] <Irreducibilis> Okay
[10:20] <rausb0> iXi: and did you create /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf before?
[10:20] <HannaH1> Hello i have a questin : where i can adduser a source for apt-get? what is the command
[10:20] <iXi> rausb0, yes
[10:20] <eck> cjae_: no, some filesystems will put the dirents in contiguous sectors on disk though to speed it up (e.g. xfs)
[10:20] <eck> ext3 does not do well with large directories
[10:20] <rausb0> iXi: okay, then try again with network manager killed
[10:20] <cjae_> ahh
[10:21] <hmhowie> HannaH1: you want to add a source for packages? i think you can do that in synaptic package manager
[10:21] <sistom> My konversation program is giving me problems
[10:21] <cjae_> eck, what about reiser
[10:21] <sistom> I took a screen shot www.cr4ck.org/screenshot.png
[10:21] <sistom> I can't close that window.
[10:21] <eck> cjae_: i'm not sure, i would recommend xfs over reiserfs though
[10:21] <HannaH1> hmhowie, it's a command apt...?
[10:21] <iXi> MasterShrek, rausb0: I'm gonna try that, thanks for your help guys!
[10:22] <hmhowie> HannaH1: if you want to do this by hand, you can add the new source to /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:22] <eck> in general xfs is a lot faster
[10:22] <eck> and imho more reliable
[10:22] <HannaH1> tnx hmhowie
[10:22] <cjae_> it changing filesystems very stable eck
[10:22] <sistom> hmhowie: any ideas?
[10:23] <eck> you have to reinstall/copy the files over, you can't convert a filesystem in place
[10:23] <Phlogi_> MasterShrek: ping, are you there?
[10:23] <hmhowie> HannaH1: don't forget a "sudo apt-get update" once you've added the new source, so the new package desciptions are downloaded
[10:23] <HannaH1> hmhowie, :* tnx
[10:23] <hmhowie> sistom: konversation? never used it... :(
[10:23] <sistom> :(
[10:23] <Irreducibilis> I closed it out, I have a better idea
[10:23] <hmhowie> sistom: what does it do?
[10:23] <HannaH1> what is the last version for firefox?
[10:23] <eck> although if cli is fast for you to list the directory contents then whatever app you are using that is slow sucks
[10:24] <cjae_> eck, sorry I know one should have backup before really attempting anything but what is the likely hood of losing all data converting ext3 to xfs
[10:24] <Irreducibilis> I think having the .iso on the flash drive with it is too much for USB 1.1
[10:24] <Irreducibilis> HAving to read from it and write to at at the same time
[10:24] <sistom> when it opens everything works fine
[10:24] <eck> cjae_: zero? you'd just have to reinstall
[10:24] <rausb0> !info firefox feisty
[10:24] <ubotu> firefox: lightweight web browser based on Mozilla. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.0.6+1-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 9045 kB, installed size 28668 kB
[10:24] <salamkenal> how to compile samba in ubuntu?
[10:24] <sistom> but that one window won't go away
[10:24] <sistom> I have to drag it to another desktop
[10:24] <rausb0> HannaH1: look at what ubotu said
[10:24] <Irreducibilis> So I am going to move the .iso to my windows box and have it access it from there, loosen the load
[10:24] <HannaH1> tnx
[10:24] <cjae_> eck, I see no other way then
[10:24] <erUSUL> salamkenal: what's th eproblem with the packaged version?
[10:25] <cjae_> eck, I know you could fat to nt but I never tried it
[10:25] <hmhowie> sistom: i see i'm going to have to install a kde desktop at some stage...
[10:25] <sistom> yup
[10:25] <eck> well however it takes to "time echo * /usr/bin" is how fast the fs can do it
[10:25] <eck> err, echo /usr/bin/*
[10:26] <eck> i think the gtk file picker is just slow
[10:26] <eck> although it's better than it used to be
[10:26] <lalaputar> hey
[10:27] <lalaputar> is anyone here?
[10:27] <HannaH1> what client for chat recommanded me ( EX: Xchat.... )
[10:27] <cjae_> eck, using thunar under xubuntu
[10:27] <rausb0> HannaH1: xchat or kvirc for beginners, irssi for adavanced users
[10:27] <jim> HannaH1: xchat is as good as any
[10:27] <eck> cjae_: i think it is still using the same gtk lib
[10:28] <eck> i'm not positive about that though
[10:28] <lalaputar> Im trying to run ubuntu either the 64 bit edition or the normal one on my new laptop and i get errors in "loading hardware drivers"
[10:28] <rausb0> HannaH1: but it's all personal preference anyway
[10:28] <lalaputar> and the loading stalls
[10:28] <HannaH1> i install xchat :P
[10:28] <henryb> how do i make a folder read write for all ?
[10:28] <murlidhar> can anybody tell me how to register my nickname in freenode.net???
[10:28] <cjae_> probably it seems very much the same eck
[10:29] <HannaH1> i can't see the list of people in channels where i can modify for see people?
[10:29] <secher> hey, do you guys know how i can "uninstall" a program after i have installed it.. (not through synaptic)
[10:29] <eck> !register > murlidhar
[10:29] <rausb0> HannaH1: be sure to pick xchat, not xchat-gnome
[10:29] <HannaH1> is see only in this window
[10:29] <Phlogi_> MasterShrek: I tried the ndiswrapper and it works great... :) I'm happy
[10:29] <lalaputar> there's errors loading bcm43xx_microcode5.fw
[10:29] <hmhowie> sistom: but it won't be today :) what sort of a program is konversation anyway?
[10:29] <murlidhar> eck: thnks
[10:29] <MasterShrek> good news Phlogi_
[10:29] <rausb0> HannaH1: then you probably have xchat-gnome (which is crippled somehow)
[10:30] <sistom> irc chat progrem
[10:30] <Phlogi_> However I did not try encryption yet...
[10:30] <sistom> program*
[10:30] <hmhowie> secher: "sudo apt-get remove <name of program>"
[10:30] <secher> thanks
[10:30] <lalaputar> anyone know of my hardware problem on my brand new laptop
[10:30] <lalaputar> ubuntu wont load

[10:31] <a514> lala do you have a LIVE cd?
[10:31] <secher> hmhowie, the problem is that i cant run the program, i know its there, i watched it install but when i try to do what you just said it just says it couldnt find the package
[10:31] <lalaputar> i got one in the mail
[10:31] <rausb0> HannaH1: hmm, not the gnome version. and you have no userlist on the right side?
[10:31] <HannaH1> no
[10:32] <lalaputar> and i downloaded the 64 bit version tonight
[10:32] <HannaH1> i found :) ....
[10:32] <lalaputar> bother fail at the exact same spot
[10:32] <rausb0> HannaH1: hmm. i don't have xchat here, so i cannot help you with that
[10:32] <HannaH1> are hidding :))
[10:32] <lalaputar> both**
[10:32] <rausb0> HannaH1: alright then :)
[10:32] <hmhowie> secher: might i ask which program it is?
[10:32] <arinomi> What version is the testing version of Gutsy Gibbs atm?
[10:32] <secher> vmware
[10:32] <arinomi> *tribe
[10:32] <alvinnsu> hi all ! any one can tell me under ubuntu run windows xp ?
[10:32] <secher> hmhowie, vmware
[10:32] <eck> arinomi: the last pre-beta, the beta is coming out in a few days
[10:33] <hmhowie> secher: and how did you install it?
[10:33] <ghost> rausb0: do you know how to configure xchat-gnome to recevive transfers?
[10:33] <overclucker> don't worry hmhowie, vista isn't useable
[10:33] <arinomi> eck: have they included GNOME 2.20 yet?
[10:33] <eck> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule
[10:33] <cjae_> isn't pre-beta alpha
[10:33] <rausb0> ghost: sorry, no. i havent used xchat in four years.
[10:33] <eck> arinomi: yeah
[10:33] <lalaputar> should i download the big 3.62 gb live cd and try t o run it?
[10:33] <hmhowie> overclucker: that depends on what you want to use it for...
[10:33] <ghost> rausb0: cool
[10:33] <secher> downloaded an installer and followed a guide to install it.. (build, and then make install)
[10:34] <HannaH1> rausb0, my Meneger Packeges found firefox 2.0.0.1 :((
[10:34] <lalaputar> i just want to use ubuntu lol
[10:34] <hmhowie> secher: try to locate a vmware binary. did the guide say where it would be installed to?
[10:34] <rausb0> HannaH1: which version of ubuntu do you have?
[10:34] <overclucker> hmhowie, a coaster sounds nice
[10:34] <HannaH1> 7.04
[10:34] <alvinnsu> me too
[10:34] <ArmedKing> whats the channel for Gutsy support?
[10:35] <hmhowie> overclucker: but with this strange hole in the middle it can't even do that well
[10:35] <sistom> hmhowie: how do I network my windows computer with this one?
[10:35] <rausb0> HannaH1: please post your /etc/apt/sources.list on phpfi.com
[10:35] <damianl> #ubuntu
[10:35] <arinomi> ArmedKing: I don't know, should there be one?
[10:35] <sistom> like share a printer and/or files?
[10:35] <hmhowie> sistom: which services do you want to share?
[10:35] <lalaputar> Im trying to run 7.04 as a livecd and it fails
[10:35] <arinomi> lalaputar: how does it fail?
[10:35] <damianl> compiz and beryl dont show window managers anyone had this problem?
[10:35] <overclucker> hmhowie, heh the little air pocket wil help insulate my cofee cup
[10:35] <HannaH1> ! paste
[10:35] <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)
[10:35] <ArmedKing> arinomi: Yes as far as i know
[10:35] <hmhowie> sistom: if you connect them both to the same net, the ubuntu computer should automagically see all shared windows files and printers
[10:36] <lalaputar> it fails when it gets to loading hardware drivers
[10:36] <eck> ArmedKing: #ubuntu+1
[10:36] <ArmedKing> eck: Tnx
[10:36] <HannaH1> rausb0, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38528/
[10:36] <lalaputar> im guessing it fails on my broadcom wireless card
[10:36] <damianl> compiz and beryl dont show window managers anyone had this problem?
[10:36] <arinomi> damianl: yes, I've had that problem as well
[10:36] <salamkenal> hello i need help, i wanna compile the samba new version but error in c ompiler cannot create executeable
[10:37] <secher> hmhowie, its in /vmware in my homefolder
[10:37] <damianl> arinomi um what causes it i cant find any onfo on google
[10:37] <rausb0> HannaH1: and you did   sudo apt-get update  after changing your sources.list?
[10:37] <overclucker> salamkenal, what is the exact error message?
[10:37] <HannaH1> no knwo!...
[10:37] <lalaputar> bcm43xx_microcide5.fw
[10:37] <HannaH1> Fetched 3B in 1s (2B/s)
[10:37] <HannaH1> Reading package lists... Done
[10:37] <hmhowie> secher: just out of curiosity, why did you download vmware and not use a preconfigured virtualisation solution from the repositories?
[10:37] <arinomi> damianl: I'm not sure, it's a common bug. Could be graphics drivers
[10:38] <damianl> oh k, ill have to keep looking on google i guess
[10:38] <salamkenal> configure:error: C compiler cannot create executeables
[10:39] <lalaputar> this really sucks I cant even find a solution anywhere
[10:39] <arinomi> damianl: try asking at the Ubuntu forums :) Or searching, preferrably
[10:39] <Madnez> !wine
[10:39] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[10:39] <secher> hmhowie, becuase i found a guide on how to run XP in VMware server, and followed that. Im very new to linux..
[10:39] <hmhowie> salamkenal: if it's failing with a warning like that in the .configure stage, check that you have write permission to the folder and check that you've installed the whole gcc stuff from the repositories
[10:40] <hmhowie> secher: just download the vmware version from the repositories. that will already be configured to work on your system. i myself am a big fan of qemu (another virtualisation software and also in the repositories)

[10:40] <phiras> hello
[10:41] <murlidhar> i have installed desktop search application tracker . how do i use it???????
[10:41] <phiras> i am new to ubuntu
[10:41] <phiras> and i have a question
[10:41] <ikonia> then ask
[10:41] <murlidhar> i mean where can i find the application
[10:41] <phiras> i have only 100 M left
[10:41] <secher> hmhowie, yes i read up on the subject of virualization and decided to try out Xen instead, but i figured its not that smart to have VMware still partly installed.. Thats why i wanna get rid of it
[10:41] <phiras> and i want to increase the space of my home
[10:41] <phiras> ( i do not want to mount another hard)
[10:41] <phiras> how can i do this
[10:42] <ikonia> phiras: you need to delete and re-create the partition, or use a re-sizing tool (at your own risk)
[10:42] <a514> anyone know python?
[10:42] <hmhowie> secher: i just worry what the installer did. i don't much trust third-party installers. if you install xen, there's a 99% chance that any problems you have with it won't have anything to do with vmware
[10:42] <phiras> can you give me a resizing tool
[10:42] <murlidhar> phiras: it is better to save your media in other partitions especially if you have ntfs drives
[10:42] <ikonia> phiras: gparted
[10:43] <z0rz> What's the most efficient way to combine multiple zip files?
[10:43] <ikonia> murlidhar: what are you talking about ?
[10:43] <ikonia> murlidhar: that make no sense
[10:43] <xylan> hi all,
[10:43] <phiras> i have parted
[10:43] <ikonia> phiras: great
[10:43] <phiras> is it good
[10:43] <cjae_> ok I can't find my private gpg key, I have an entry in /usr/bin/gpg but cannot see it in ascii and there is no ~/.ssh folder
[10:43] <secher> hmhowie, it wasnt third party, it was the official release from VMware.. But ok then ill just ignore it, and try to run Xen instead..
[10:43] <a514> could someone please python script vol_id > into pysdm gui for fstab!!
[10:43] <murlidhar> ikonia:  if one has windows xp it is better to save personal folder in ntfs file system
[10:44] <overclucker> phiras, since you're new to ubuntu, stay away from parted
[10:44] <ikonia> phiras: use at your own risk
[10:44] <hmhowie> secher: maybe there's a vmware uninstall script in $HOME/vmware. it's certainly worth a look
[10:44] <lalaputar> anyone know anything about ubuntu hardware booting problems
[10:44] <phiras> ikonia: do you know the command line that i have to use
[10:44] <ikonia> murlidhar: that maes no difference
[10:44] <lalaputar> that deal with this driver bcm43xx_microcode5.fw
[10:44] <MasterShrek> secher, delete any files with vmware in the name from /etc/init.d  this will make sure none of the startup scripts get run
[10:44] <phiras> i am in parted now
[10:44] <xylan> is there a way to have automatically home folder on desktop ? i mean im preparing images on server for deploying ubuntu there in lab, but theres complains about that, so id liek to know if there a file configuration sdomewhere to telle gnome to put it automatically on desktop on install
[10:44] <ikonia> phiras: no - use "G"parted, not parted then you have a gui
[10:44] <murlidhar> ikonia: alright
[10:44] <ikonia> phiras: and you must be aware of possible data loss or corruption re-sizing a partition
[10:44] <MasterShrek> secher, actually u dont have to delete them really, u can chmod 644 also
[10:45] <hmhowie> lalaputar: you've tried booting and switching off quiet and splash and you get to a problem with a bcm43xx driver?
[10:45] <phiras> i see
[10:45] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, u need the broadcom firmware
[10:45] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, do u know what kinda wifi card it is?
[10:45] <Phlogi_> what do I need to play mp3s in ubuntu?
[10:45] <lalaputar> switching off the quiet and splash, what is that?
[10:45] <lalaputar> its a broadcom
[10:45] <phiras> ikonia: but the problem is that i am running out of space, so may be i am not able to download the gpart but i found
[10:45] <MasterShrek> Phlogi_, mpg123 i think
[10:45] <murlidhar> phiras: better back up ur files before using gparted
[10:45] <phiras> a
[10:45] <phiras> resize command
[10:45] <ikonia> phiras gparted is on must ubuntu systems
[10:46] <secher> hmhowie, lol how stupid of me not to check that right away.. there is an uninstall in the dir..
[10:46] <MasterShrek> broadcom what lalaputar 4311 4312 4306 4318?
[10:46] <Phlogi_> MasterShrek: can i install all those restricted stuff + codes at once?
[10:46] <ikonia> phiras: most ubuntu systems, sorry
[10:46] <phiras> taking parameters:
[10:46] <gast> hey
[10:46] <overclucker> phiras, you know how to get Gparted?
[10:46] <lalaputar> I have no idea
[10:46] <phiras> yes i will back them
[10:46] <gast> huhu
[10:46] <phiras> no i do not know
[10:46] <MasterShrek> Phlogi_, they are different programs u gotta install, open synaptic and install gstreamer0.10
[10:46] <MasterShrek> that should get most of your codecs
[10:46] <overclucker> sudo apt-get install gparted
[10:46] <lalaputar> its a new hp pavillion dv6408nr
[10:47] <ikonia> phiras: open synaptic and slsect gparted then click "apply" it will donwload it for you
[10:47] <overclucker> do that from console
[10:47] <mm23> hello, can someone recommend me on good software for supervision ? (so i can know what other users on my server done/doing on my server ?)
[10:47] <lalaputar> Ive tried looking some stuff up on it before to no avail
[10:47] <murlidhar> console = terminal
[10:48] <uptownben> I googled "qc timeout" and I see that it is a "known" ubuntu bug, but where can I find a workaround?
[10:48] <overclucker> phiras, then once it is installed, you will find it under system > administration > Gparted
[10:48] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, get the file here: http://www.mediafire.com/?bqn8x4eancv and extract it to /lib/firmware
[10:48] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, it says 4311, but it should work with whatever u have
[10:48] <lalaputar> ok but how do i add that to the livecd?
[10:48] <ixxi> i would like help getting my 3com wireless card work with wpa, could someone have a look at the output i get when i run wpa_supplicant please?
[10:48] <lalaputar> i dont have ubuntu installed
[10:49] <lalaputar> i can even load the cd cause of this error
[10:49] <MasterShrek> ixxi, i thought u had it working, pastebin the output ill look at it
[10:49] <overclucker> pardon my terminal*ogy
[10:49] <secher> hmhowie, thanks for your help
[10:49] <jan_> where are the global icons based for gnome ?
[10:49] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, u cant add it to the livecd
[10:49] <lalaputar> how?
[10:49] <nox-Hand> Where are gpg pubkeys for repos stored?
[10:49] <MasterShrek> and the firmware not being there wont make the livecd not boot, at least it shouldnt, mine never did
[10:49] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, can u disable your wireless card in your bios, just for the install?
[10:50] <lalaputar> i can sure try
[10:50] <lalaputar> i checked this error just now online
[10:50] <lalaputar> other people have had similar stuff
[10:50] <lalaputar> the diabling the card doesnt seem to work for them
[10:50] <lalaputar> disabling**
[10:50] <phiras> i am downloading the gpart now
[10:50] <lalaputar> but i will try
[10:50] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, the error is that you are missing the firmware, thats not whats making the livecd not boot, im almost positive thats not the problem
[10:51] <lalaputar> ok it just pauses at the checking my network
[10:51] <a514> I noticed pysdm did not start without fstab existing
[10:51] <murlidhar> tracker is already installed in my system how do i access it :?
[10:51] <lalaputar> after those errors
[10:51] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, how long did u wait and let it sit there?
[10:51] <lalaputar> I waited like 15 mins and it didnt load
[10:51] <MasterShrek> hmm
[10:52] <MasterShrek> how new is the laptop?
[10:52] <lalaputar> just bought it
[10:52] <lalaputar> like a week ago
[10:52] <MasterShrek> try a gutsy pre-release, or wait until next month, thatd be my advice for you
[10:52] <overclucker> lalaputar, then return it, heh
[10:52] <MasterShrek> feisty's kernel is a little outdated
[10:52] <lalaputar> ok I'll try a new gutsy
[10:53] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, its still not very stable yet, but worth a shot to see if itll work
[10:53] <lalaputar> can i do much on the pre-release?
[10:53] <murlidhar> MasterShrek: kernel has just been updated i guess
[10:53] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, its a full os
[10:53] <lalaputar> ok i wanted to show my fiancee how good ubuntu is
[10:53] <MasterShrek> oh, in feisty the kernel has been updated?
[10:53] <lalaputar> sucks that i cant even load it on this laptop
[10:54] <kyokhujhin> aloha..
[10:54] <murlidhar> MasterShrek: i have just upgraded and the system is askin a reboot
[10:54] <lalaputar> are there any customized ubuntu versions out there that have been updated that I can download and burn onto a cd
[10:55] <lalaputar> would ultimate ubuntu work?
[10:55] <MasterShrek> feisty is still 2.6.20, gutsy is 2.6.22, i think there have been alot of acpi fixes and stuff, that may be the problem....then again maybe not :P
[10:55] <ikonia> lalaputar ubuntu ultimate is not an ubuntu product and not supported here
[10:55] <kyokhujhin> elo...
[10:55] <MasterShrek> lalaputar, i doube it
[10:55] <lalaputar> ok
[10:55] <kyokhujhin> elo...
[10:55] <kyokhujhin> elo...
[10:55] <MasterShrek> ultimate ubuntu, the things some people will do to get their name out there
[10:55] <lalaputar> its full of crap i feel
[10:56] <a514> someone should code in pysdm gui into Gutsy!! Now before the sun rises!!
[10:56] <lalaputar> but wondering if it was worth a shot
[10:56] <MasterShrek> i would assume
[10:56] <ikonia> lalaputar you make that statment with no backup.
[10:56] <lalaputar> huh?
[10:56] <CorpseFeeder> What does this mean? "Xine engine failed to start" then "No input plugin was found. Maybe the file does not exist or cannot be accessed, or there is an error in the URL." followed by "read error from: /dev/dvd"?
[10:56] <lalaputar> huh
[10:56] <CorpseFeeder> this is happening a lot lately
[10:56] <MasterShrek> CorpseFeeder, do u have xine installed?
[10:56] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder it means the correct plugin was not loaded and the device /dev/dvd cannot be read from
[10:57] <ixxi> MasterShrek, do you find anything interesting in my output file?
[10:57] <MasterShrek> oh, dvd dug, search synaptic for dvdread
[10:57] <MasterShrek> sorry ixxi, i didnt look lol, i will now tho
[10:57] <lalaputar> is there anywhere to leave suggestions to ubuntu developers?
[10:57] <salamkenal> configure:error: C compiler cannot create executeables what that;s mean?
[10:57] <ikonia> yes, bug reports
[10:57] <lalaputar> I have some simple touch ups
[10:57] <salamkenal> configure:error: C compiler cannot create executeables; what that's mean?
[10:57] <lalaputar> to add
[10:58] <ikonia> salamkenal: it means you've not got the correct development packages installed
[10:58] <MasterShrek> ixxi, where is the output?
[10:58] <airstrike> guys, it's 5am
[10:58] <airstrike> go to bed
[10:58] <CorpseFeeder> MasterShrek: ikonia: Yeah, the thing is I have all that DVD stuff installed, and if I take the DVD out and put it in the second DVD drive it works, and then when that one fails with the same message, I swap back to the other drive and it works again too... I don't understand what is causing it...
[10:58] <MasterShrek> ixxi, if u are trying to pm it to me, youll have to register your nick
[10:58] <salamkenal> how to get correct development?
[10:58] <erUSUL> salamkenal: have you instaled build-essential?
[10:58] <murlidhar> MasterShrek: like i have said kernel is updated to 2.6.20
[10:58] <ixxi> MasterShrek, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38529/
[10:58] <lalaputar> ok guys thanks
[10:58] <salamkenal> where i can get the build-essential?
[10:58] <ixxi> MasterShrek, sorry
[10:58] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder sounds like udev creating the /dev/dvd node
[10:58] <lalaputar> I'll try the new release
[10:58] <lalaputar> thanks
[10:58] <lalaputar> goodnight
[10:58] <hmhowie> lalaputar: if it is this driver, you should be able to disable it
[10:58] <MasterShrek> 2.6.23 is almost out murlidhar
[10:58] <HannaH1> Hello, i need some help i add this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38530/ why i connot add & remove in pertition?
[10:58] <ikonia> salamkenal install them the package is called build-essential
[10:59] <lalaputar> I'll try it
[10:59] <MasterShrek> but theres no way that matters, he cant boot a livecd
[10:59] <erUSUL> salamkenal: from apt like any other pacvkage including samba ;P
[10:59] <salamkenal> with sudo apt get?
[10:59] <erUSUL> !info build-essential | salamkenal
[10:59] <ubotu> salamkenal: build-essential: informational list of build-essential packages. In component main, is optional. Version 11.3 (feisty), package size 6 kB, installed size 48 kB
[10:59] <salamkenal> i use apt-get install
[10:59] <hmhowie> lalaputar: you can pass the kernel during booting a request not to use this driver
[10:59] <lalaputar> how
[10:59] <lalaputar> ?
[10:59] <secher> hmhowie, what did you say you used for virtualization?
[11:00] <secher> hmhowie, and will it be able to run xp in it?
[11:00] <CorpseFeeder> ikonia: I don't know what you just said, but this error message just seems to pop up at random. Like I can be watching a DVD no problem. Reboot the computer and then the error message is back and the only way to fix it seems to be to try a different drive...
[11:00] <murlidhar> MasterShrek: oh thnks i will wait till it is released
[11:00] <MasterShrek> ixxi, try this sudo wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dwext
[11:00] <hmhowie> lalaputar: i've forgotten the command, so i'm googling for it now
[11:00] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder: udev creates a node called "/dev/dvd" that can only map to one device, it sounds like your /dev/dvd points to a random device each time
[11:01] <hmhowie> lalaputar: it's a standard kernel option. so when the livecd says "press escape to enter grub" or whatever it says, you press escape, then you can modify the boot parameters for the kernel
[11:01] <lalaputar> now has microsoft borrowed off of linux distros with windows vista or did linux borrow from it?
[11:01] <CorpseFeeder> ikonia: I see... well is there anyway I can fix that, cos I've got 2 DVD drives in this server?
[11:01] <MasterShrek> ixxi, also if that doesnt work try using the hostap driver
[11:02] <HannaH1> hmhowie,  i add this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38530/ why i connot add & remove in pertition?
[11:02] <lalaputar> hmmmm
[11:02] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder: create static udev rules, or make the nodes manually
[11:02] <DamienCassou> hi
[11:02] <ikonia> lalaputar please stop talking nonsense, microsoft and linux are too seperate operating systems. This channel is for support issues only
[11:03] <DamienCassou> I can't burn CDs today (it worked yesterday). Everytime I try, I get a message saying the cd burner is busy. lsof /dev/cdrw returns nothing
[11:03] <lalaputar> ikonia, Im asking a valid question about microsft borrowing from the opensource world
[11:03] <lalaputar> please don't be an ignorant dick
[11:03] <ikonia> lalaputar that is irelevent to this channel
[11:03] <ikonia> lalaputar I'm not ignorant, that that language is uncalled for
[11:03] <lalaputar> you are
[11:03] <CorpseFeeder> ikonia: I'd love to create static udev rules, unfortuantely I have no idea how to even start thinking about that....
[11:03] <lalaputar> there was no reason to be rude
[11:03] <DamienCassou> $ sudo wodim blank=disc
[11:03] <DamienCassou> Error trying to open /dev/cdrw exclusively (Device or resource busy)... retrying in 1 second.
[11:04] <ikonia> lalaputar I'm not being rude, I'm asking you to not discuss not releveant information in thei support only channel
[11:04] <lalaputar> that's cool
[11:04] <lalaputar> Im fine with that
[11:04] <lalaputar> my bad
[11:04] <lalaputar> peace everyone
[11:04] <lalaputar> goodnight
[11:04] <ixxi> MasterShrek, none of it works
[11:04] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder ok, what you need to do is look at the udev rules and the out put from dmesg at boot time to see how your dvd rom drives are identified
[11:05] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder: then based on how they are identified alter the rules
[11:05] <DamienCassou> can somebody help me please?
[11:05] <wabid> is there an easy way to clone my user profile so i have a second that is exactly the same
[11:05] <CorpseFeeder> ikonia: where do I find there udev rules?
[11:05] <ikonia> wabid: copy the home dir
[11:06] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder: errr /etc/udev/rules.d I think off the top of my head
[11:06] <wabid> lets say im user
[11:06] <wabid> now i want user2 to appear on the login screen
[11:06] <wabid> but be a different account
[11:06] <ikonia> add a user
[11:06] <ixxi> MasterShrek, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38532/
[11:06] <erUSUL> DamienCassou: some other process is accesing the drive... try 'sudo lsof /dev/cdrw'
[11:06] <ikonia> just create another user
[11:06] <wabid> yea but that wont have the same settings
[11:06] <erUSUL> DamienCassou: too see the culprit
[11:06] <ikonia> what settings do you want the same ?
[11:07] <DamienCassou> erUSUL: nothing is returned
[11:07] <wabid> gnome, firefox gimp, compiz
[11:07] <wabid> xchat i dunno everything
[11:07] <ikonia> wabid: so copy the current users home dir into the new users home dir
[11:07] <wabid> i think ive tried that before with bad results
[11:08] <ikonia> wabid: thats how its done, so if you can't do it, you can't do it. I've created clone profiles many times even using the users home dir to popuplate etc skel
[11:08] <MasterShrek> ixxi, what kinda card was it again?
[11:08] <CorpseFeeder> ikonia: I see a lot of files in that folder...
[11:08] <z0rz> Is there a way to list the contents of a zip file in the command line?
[11:09] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder grep for dvd
[11:09] <erUSUL> DamienCassou: :S
[11:09] <ikonia> z0rz: think you have to unzip it
[11:09] <z0rz> ikonia: So if it's a 2gb file and I'm not sure if it's the right 2gb file I have to unzip it first to make sure?
[11:09] <wabid> why does it say my password needs to be six characters
[11:09] <sistom> hmhowie: is there a way to change/alter the boot screen?
[11:09] <ikonia> z0rz: I'm not aware of a "fake" unzip
[11:09] <overclucker> z0rz, man zip? or whatever it's called
[11:10] <ikonia> wabid because thats the password policy
[11:10] <ixxi> MasterShrek, 3com 3crwe154g72
[11:10] <wabid> not when you install ubuntu
[11:10] <MasterShrek> z0rz, unzip -l
[11:10] <sistom> ?
[11:10] <ikonia> wabid I think it is, or maybe an ubuntu update updates the policy
[11:10] <ikonia> I think 6 chars is the default
[11:10] <z0rz> MasterShrek: Thanks
[11:10] <Frogzoo> password policy is set in about 3 different places
[11:10] <wabid> not when you install, ive done it with 2
[11:10] <minimec> Hi folks. I cannot get rid of a broken package. The package is a unofficial ampache package for feisty that I installed on a edgy server, believing that the server was on feisty to. Now I am completly blocked!
[11:11] <ixxi> i
[11:11] <xylan> anybody has an idea for my problem ?
[11:11] <frojnd> hello there
[11:11] <secher> can anyone tell me the best virtualization tool for running XP..?
[11:11] <ikonia> minimec well, thats pretty messy. Whats the error you get when you try to remove it
[11:11] <z0rz> How can I combine multiple zip files efficiently?
[11:11] <warrick> My laptop likes to shut off while installing Ubuntu, I think it's overheating
[11:11] <ikonia> secher anything, vmware ? kvm ? xen ?
[11:11] <overclucker> cracklib should come with ubuntu, standard
[11:11] <MasterShrek> ixxi, it looks like you may have to use ndiswrapper to load the driver for wpa as wpa_supplicant doesnt apparently support your card
[11:11] <CorpseFeeder> ikonia: grep gave me 8 files each containing some gobblygook which mentions "dvd"...
[11:11] <erUSUL> minimec: try sudo dpkg --remove --force-all <packagename>
[11:11] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder so look through them
[11:12] <MasterShrek> xylan, whats your problem?
[11:12] <Frogzoo> warrick: tried installing with the setting acpi=off ?
[11:12] <minimec> erUSUL: I tried that... No fu..ing chance!
[11:12] <minimec> ikonia: error 10
[11:12] <CorpseFeeder> ikonia: but I don't know what I'm looking for....
[11:12] <frojnd> I've just install lotus and make it so everyone can see it with commadn chown -R myusername:myusername lotus/  But there is still NO lotus under Applications -> office :S How can I refresh those icons ??
[11:12] <ikonia> minimec don't use bad language, or imply it
[11:12] <ixxi> MasterShrek, i'm ready to give up...have spent too many hours on this already
[11:12] <warrick> Frogzoo no, how do I do that
[11:12] <ikonia> minimec there must be more detail than that
[11:13] <MasterShrek> ixxi, can u just use wep? or do u need to have wpa?
[11:13] <minimec> ikonia: post-removal script gave error 10
[11:13] <CorpseFeeder> ikonia: am I looking for something like "ENV{ID_CDROM_DVD}=="?*",		SYMLINK+="dvd""?
[11:13] <hmhowie> frojnd: you could just add an icon. maybe the lotus installer has been remiss here
[11:13] <DamienCassou> I have no process working with /dev/cdrw, but burning tools keep complaining about the busy device
[11:13] <minimec> ikonia: Sorry for the language ;)
[11:13] <DamienCassou> can somebody help me please?
[11:13] <secher> ikonia, well i tried vmware but it wouldnt run properly on my system..
[11:13] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder thats it
[11:13] <warrick> Frogzoo: what I don't understand is that debian seems to run forever, I just don't have the driver to get networking to install
[11:14] <ikonia> secher so fix it, or try the others I suggested
[11:14] <Frogzoo> warrick: not sure, not had to do it - google knows though
[11:14] <xylan> MasterShrek:
[11:14] <a514> so why is xdvdshrink not a deb in the repos?
[11:14] <secher> k then
[11:14] <xylan>  is there a way to have automatically home folder on desktop ? i mean im preparing images on server for deploying ubuntu there in lab, but theres complains about that, so id liek to know if there a file configuration sdomewhere to telle
[11:14] <xylan>                gnome to put it automatically on desktop on install
[11:14] <murlidhar> DamienCassou: press ctrl+alt+backspace and see if it helps
[11:14] <DamienCassou> bye :-)
[11:15] <ikonia> xylan put it in /etc/skel so that when a users is created it's in the default settings
[11:15] <xylan> and when install ubuntu thres no user on it, so i search gnome default conf file to have home folder + computer auto when a user is created
[11:15] <Frogzoo> warrick: pressing 'e' at the cd boot should give you a grub config, and append acpi=off to kernel line
[11:15] <ixxi> MasterShrek, yeah i guess the easiest thing is to switch, anoying tho
[11:15] <CorpseFeeder> ikonia: I only see stuff in those rules files with /dev/cdrom.... I don't see anything under /dev/dvd
[11:15] <frojnd> well... anyone
[11:15] <overclucker> a514, caue you haven't dpkg.ed it yet
[11:16] <warrick> Frogzoo: Ok I'll try, but why would this work?
[11:16] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder you need to read up on udev rules, as I don't really have time to walk you through it, more so when I don't have an ubuntu box to compare with
[11:16] <Frogzoo> warrick: acpi's known to cause problems in installation with some systems
[11:16] <xylan> ikonia: theres just Examples in it , do i have to put a nautilus-home.desktop in it ?
[11:16] <xylan> thats it ?
[11:16] <a514> cluck alien rpm->deb
[11:16] <ikonia> xylan they are not examples, they are the default creation files on a user creation
[11:17] <ikonia> cluck alien is a bad idea
[11:17] <ikonia> oops
[11:17] <ikonia> "alien" is a bad idea, full stop
[11:17] <DamienCassou> murlidhar: it helps. Thanks
[11:18] <ixxi> has anyone got a 3com 3crw154g72 wirless pc card to work with wpa in feisty?
[11:18] <murlidhar> DamienCassou: no mention
[11:18] <DamienCassou> murlidhar: what do you mean?
[11:18] <ikonia> ixxi is it supported in the current kernel ?
[11:18] <CorpseFeeder> ikonia: ok, just one more question... is the bit in quotes after SYMLINK+= the name which normally you see after "/dev/" when you browse the file system? Is that where it gets the name from?
[11:18] <overclucker> ikonia, it was a great idea, just poorly implemented (;
[11:18] <xylan> ikonia: so i have to cp nautilus-home.desktop /etc/skell/Examples
[11:18] <ikonia> overclucker not really usable due to version differences between distros
[11:18] <ikonia> xylan no
[11:18] <murlidhar> DamienCassou: don't mentions thanks there is no need of it  . We  are meant to help each other
[11:19] <ikonia> CorpseFeeder that rule is creating a symlink, there is no quick answer you need to learn the right settings for device node creation
[11:19] <ixxi> ikonia: yeah i think it is supposed to work out of the box
[11:19] <ikonia> ixxi you need to check and verify that
[11:19] <ixxi> !wpa
[11:19] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:19] <xylan> i'll have more than 100 users who'll install ubuntu via pxe/getconfig script

[11:56] <Frogzoo> A2t3c13: "Color inkjet printer, max. 4800x1200 dpi, this is a Paperweight"
[11:56] <gorski> why i cannot remove items from my System>Preferences>Main Menu?
[11:56] <murlidhar_> subxero: could u be more specific
[11:56] <Crozar> how can we put widgets for compiz ?
[11:56] <A2t3c13> i read i can get it going though with a z42
[11:56] <subxero> yeah, i was waiting to see if anyone was gonna help before i type my problem ^^ sorry
[11:57] <subxero> anyway, upon the install finishes successfully, it looks like, but it completely skips Grub installation
[11:57] <A2t3c13> z42 leads me back to foomatic
[11:57] <newdude> hey there  peoples, i just upgraded my linux kernel to 2.6.22, but since that i cant play .swf files anymore, any clues?
[11:57] <subxero> and i don't know why.
[11:57] <murlidhar_> subxero: everybody is watching just be patient
[11:57] <Frogzoo> A2t3c13: ok, well gl with that
[11:57] <newdude> oh and btw, why cant i connect to irc channels with SSL? when its checked i can never connect to a server :S
[11:58] <murlidhar_> subxero: are u sure it is in 1024 cylinder limit
[11:58] <nanonyme> newdude, which client?
[11:58] <nanonyme> which server?
[11:58] <newdude> XChat
[11:58] <newdude> this server
[11:58] <gorski> why i cannot remove items from my System>Preferences>Main Menu?
[11:58] <nanonyme> what does it say when you try to connect with ssl?
[11:58] <subxero> 1024 cyl limit? you lost me there. sorry.
[11:58] <newdude> nothing, just sits there trying to connect
[11:58] <nanonyme> newdude, do you have the right port?
[11:58] <newdude> but doesnt connect lol
[11:59] <newdude> it tries port 9999
[11:59] <nanonyme> :P
[11:59] <nanonyme> so no
[11:59] <A2t3c13> thats the thing i want to know if it will work if its even feasible http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/Database/DriverPackages
[11:59] <murlidhar_> in netbios there is a cylinder limit of 1024
[11:59] <newdude> is port 9999 the right one?
[11:59] <newdude> can i use port 666 instead?
[11:59] <nanonyme> newdude, freenode doesn't use ssl
[11:59] <newdude> 666 ftw
[11:59] <ikonia> netbios is a network protocol, nothing to do with hard disks
[11:59] <newdude> oh ok np
[11:59] <murlidhar_> MasterShrek: can explain u more of this cuz even i am a noobie
[12:00] <newdude> how about the .swf problem? i cant seem to play them in totem anymore after i upgraded my kernel :S

[12:00] <newdude> had to reinstall my ATi driver too :S
[12:00] <newdude> np with that though, its just playing media i got trouble with :S

[12:01] <subxero> i want grub to do the standard "which OS do you want to boot?" but grub never installs for some reason. installing it manually has proved fruitless 'cause i have no idea what i'm doing
[12:01] <gorski> why i cannot remove items from my System>Preferences>Main Menu?
[12:01] <murlidhar_> sudo fdisk -l > ~/Desktop/Partition.Layout.$(date +%m-%d-%Y-%T).txt and paste-bin for a clear picture
[12:01] <newdude> should i try reinstall gstreamer codecs?
[12:01] <kimmey2k3> I run Feisty server and its complaining about /usr/share/gdm/themes/Human/Human.xml when I start up. I tried to remove it completely first, that didnt work. Then i reinstalled with apt-get install human-theme and that didnt work neither. Also its no Human-folder in /usr/share/gdm/themes/ - Any that kowns a simple method to fix it?
[12:01] <USMarine> subxero grub must be installed in the master disck
[12:02] <subxero> but the installer never asks me where to put it. if i choose Advanced, it'll let me enter a location (in the format of hdx, where x is a number) but i don't know which disk is hd0, and which is hd1

[12:19] <nightfreak> USMarine: i'm running a remote server without GUI
[12:19] <cs_1912> usmarine : thanks......
[12:20] <gehel_> Hello all !
[12:20] <f_quint> USMarine,  whait a min plz
[12:20] <kahrytan> USMarine, Celeron D's are usually 64bit capable
[12:20] <USMarine> nightfreak try apt-cache policy
[12:20] <kahrytan> USMarine,  well 775 socket ones.
[12:20] <gehel_> Does anyone knows of a client for Microsoft Visual SourceSafe that runs under Ubuntu ?
[12:20] <USMarine> f_quint according to kahrytan you can install a 64 bit system
[12:20] <f_quint> USMarine, http://www.intel.com/products/processor/celeron_D/index.htm
[12:21] <f_quint> as far as i now it 64 bit
[12:21] <kahrytan> f_quint, how old is the system?
[12:21] <f_quint> but
[12:21] <f_quint> kahrytan, 3 mounths
[12:21] <kahrytan> There is socket 478 celeron ds
[12:21] <USMarine> f_quint should be 64bit
[12:21] <kahrytan> then it's 64bit capable
[12:22] <f_quint> ok its because i have next problem
[12:22] <kahrytan> f_quint, but I wouldnt use 64bit os yet
[12:22] <f_quint> when i try to install some po from ubunta cd
[12:22] <USMarine> f_quint what problem?
[12:23] <USMarine> f_quint don't say you have a problem, instead tell what the problem is
[12:23] <f_quint> it say that this prog. cant be installed in my type of computer (i386)
[12:24] <f_quint> im from russia and speak english not very good

[12:30] <USMarine> newdude open console, compiz --replace
[12:30] <newdude> compiz (core) - Fatal: No composite extension
[12:30] <newdude> lol
[12:30] <USMarine> add composite extension in your xorg.conf
[12:30] <newdude> kk
[12:31] <newdude> where the "0" is in xorg, what do i replace it with?
[12:31] <USMarine> ?
[12:31] <newdude> Option		"Composite"	"0"
[12:31] <kahrytan> newdude, install compiz tray
[12:31] <ikonia> newdude perhaps installing things with no idea what to do with it is a bad idea
[12:32] <newdude> i jsut want the cool effects etc
[12:32] <Hannah1> Hello, how it's good for use ( for play mp3 ) xmms ? or?
[12:32] <USMarine> Hannah1 or amarok

[12:32] <nasser> I want the best way to install the  new ATI Driver 8.41.7  please!!!!!!!!!!
[12:32] <newdude> do i make the "0" a "1"?
[12:33] <kahrytan> Hannah1, I like to use Audacious .. a fork of XMMS
[12:33] <Hannah1> USMarine: amorok give me a problem: NO SUPPROT MP3
[12:33] <newdude> theres no compiz tray in synaptic
[12:33] <kahrytan> Hannah1, and XMMS/Audacious are compatible with older Winamp skins
[12:33] <murlidhar_> Hannah1: amarok uses xine engine

[12:34] <ikonia> newdude: read the docs on how to install and configure it within ubuntu
[12:34] <Hannah1> i need install a library for support mp3
[12:34] <Hannah1> tnx
[12:34] <murlidhar_> Hannah1:   sudo apt-get install libxine-extracodecs
[12:34] <kahrytan> Hannah1, first link will help you out with codec issues
[12:34] <ikonia> murlidhar_ she's not using xine
[12:35] <murlidhar_> ikonia: then?
[12:35] <kahrytan> ikonia, she is using xine based app
[12:35] <kahrytan> y oh wait
[12:35] <kahrytan> gstreamer
[12:35] <ikonia> kahrytan but is that app linked against xine libs, or are the libs called a different name
[12:35] <kahrytan> wrong one
[12:35] <ikonia> murlidhar_ then what ?
[12:36] <kahrytan> amarok is probably using gstreamer codecs
[12:36] <murlidhar_> ikonia: then what what i said amarok is using xine codecs .
[12:36] <Hannah1> tnx all
[12:36] <ikonia> murlidhar_ but do they ?
[12:37] <murlidhar_> kahrytan: exaile uses gstreamer codecs and amarok uses xine codecs
[12:37] <cwillu> I'm trying to print a pdf, but the top line keeps getting cut off.  Can anyone help?
[12:37] <kahrytan> murlidhar_, google
[12:37] <damianl_> is it true in saying "technically" a 3ghz core 2 quad could reach speeds of 50ghz or more
[12:37] <ikonia> damianl_ ?
[12:38] <cwillu> The margins settings I can find don't seem to change anything, and simply scaling the page does make the page smaller, but it doesn't center it, so it still cuts off (more) of the first line
[12:38] <Hannah1> and... i add this in /etc/fstas
[12:38] <Hannah1> UUID=BAD47807D477C463 /media/hda5 ntfs-3g defaults,force 0 0
[12:38] <Hannah1> it's ok?
[12:39] <Hannah1> for modify in partition...
[12:39] <ikonia> that will mount a partition on /media/hda5
[12:39] <murlidhar_> Hannah1: is your amarok working fine now?
[12:39] <ikonia> is that what you want ?
[12:39] <Hannah1> yes ikonia
[12:39] <Hannah1> murlidhar_: wait i try new
[12:40] <damianl_> well u got 4 "3ghz" cores thats 12ghz... then u got hyperthreading whick makes 2 "3ghz" threads at once on each processor thats 24ghz...then you got the extra 32 bits on each core thats 48ghz
[12:40] <damianl_> well not technically but "equivalent to"
[12:40] <ikonia> damianl_ it doesn't work like that
[12:40] <damianl_> but its equivalent to yeah
[12:40] <centyx> hi, in Nautilus, how may I get a "write to disc" menu item for cdrdao .toc files like I by default have for .iso files?
[12:40] <ikonia> damianl_ also this disusion is not appropriate for this ubuntu support channel
[12:40] <cwillu> damianl_: no, it's _really_ not that simple
[12:41] <centyx> I would figure it out myself, but I'm kindof in a hurry
[12:41] <damianl_> im getting to it...ubuntu question
[12:42] <arinomi> How to install ubuntu from kubuntu? (And get the Ubuntu startup)
[12:42] <damianl_> explain what im missing here because techincally the core is only 3ghz but wouldnt it be pushing similar speeds to a (in theory there not around i know that" 50ghz processor
[12:43] <ikonia> damianl_ I've just said this is nothing to do with ubuntu and not appropriate for this channel,
[12:43] <Hannah1> murlidhar_: work!
[12:43] <vegpuff> hi, i installed ubuntu on my Hp Compaq (nc8430) and my X server refuses to start. I have console now. Please help!
[12:44] <murlidhar_> Hannah1: mp3s?
[12:44] <ikonia> vegpuff what video card is in that ?
[12:44] <Hannah1> murlidhar_: yes
[12:44] <vegpuff> ikonia, how do you check for the video card?
[12:44] <damianl_> ikonia and i have just said im getting to an ubuntu question this is the start...
[12:44] <ikonia> vegpuff: you know what card you have when you buy it
[12:44] <ikonia> damianl_ then ask it, as you keep going on about silly processor speeds
[12:45] <damianl_> thats the first part of my question
[12:45] <Frogzoo> centyx: google nautilus actions - there might be an extension for you, or something you can adapt
[12:45] <damianl_> and think about the logic its not silly at all
[12:45] <ikonia> damianl_ that is nothing to do with ubuntu so its not going to get discussion in here, but basiclly you don't understand how the speeds settings work
[12:45] <ikonia> damianl_: ask you ubuntu question
[12:45] <stanislav> hi i have porlem with ettercap need some help
[12:45] <ikonia> stanislav whats up
[12:46] <centyx> Frogzoo: thx
[12:46] <cwillu> damianl_: it might have similar throughput, assuming you're using the same number of processes as cores, on both the multi core cpu and the hypothetical 50ghz cpu.  latency will be completely different, and behaviour in a single process case is really hard to even predict when you _know_ what code you're dealing with
[12:46] <phiras> hello
[12:46] <phiras> i installed the gpart
[12:46] <Hannah1> what Yahoo messager it's good for used?
[12:47] <phiras> but i do not know how to use it
[12:47] <arinomi> ikonia_: here's an ubuntu question for ya. I am atm on Kubuntu, but I want Ubuntu. I know I can type apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, but the Kubuntu startup will still be there. How can I get the entire Ubuntu?
[12:47] <vegpuff> ikonia, ATI Mobility Radeon X1600
[12:47] <Hannah1> ! yahoo
[12:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about yahoo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:47] <ikonia> phiras there are docs on http:help.ubuntu.com
[12:47] <ikonia> arinomi ubuntu is the same, the differences are the desktop and desktop dependencies.
[12:47] <kane77> how do I create whole partition backup? so that I can later if the system gets broken restore from that
[12:47] <stanislav> when i run ettercap -Tq -M arp:remote //  it says that there is no host list o.0
[12:47] <USMarine> arinomi you want gnome? omg :O
[12:47] <ikonia> !ati >vegpuff
[12:48] <tarelerul1> I have think I have vnc server in my other computers and I try to check their ip wiht findsmb and when I see the one that is not the computer I am on I ssh 192.168.somethign and it don't work
[12:48] <arinomi> USMarine: Gnome is the best!
[12:48] <ikonia> kane77 make a dd image
[12:48] <vegpuff> ikonia, i didn't get that!
[12:48] <phiras> i looked at it but i need to move the space given on /dev/sda1 to /dev/sda8
[12:48] <USMarine> arinomi probably, but after kde
[12:48] <phiras> there is noway to move
[12:48] <ikonia> !ati | kane77
[12:48] <ubotu> kane77: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:48] <ikonia> oops
[12:48] <Hannah1> I have another problem! why i can see the movie? i install MPlayer
[12:48] <ikonia> !ati | vegpuff
[12:48] <phiras> the space from a partition to another
[12:48] <ubotu> vegpuff: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:48] <stanislav> when i run ettercap -Tq -M arp:remote //  it says that there is no host list o.0
[12:48] <arinomi> USMarine Nah :P KDE is too complex, Gnome is just beautiful
[12:48] <kane77> ikonia, and how would I restore that?
[12:49] <nightfreak> can i user dotdeb packages for dapper?
[12:49] <ikonia> kane77 boot from a live cd and dd it back
[12:49] <USMarine> arinomi better being complex than too simple when it doesn't do what i need
[12:49] <cwillu> damianl_: in short, no, it wouldn't be true to say that, except in a very limited sense
[12:49] <kane77> ikonia, hmm.. okay I'll try that.. hope it fits on 1 dvd...
[12:49] <arinomi> USMarine: It does do what I need, so it's an individual thing :)
[12:49] <ikonia> kane77 depends if its bigger than 8 gig
[12:50] <murlidhar_> Hannah1: what is extensio of the movie?
[12:50] <centyx> Frogzoo: ideally I'd like to know if nautilus-cd-burner can be configured to support cdrdao toc files. I see something in a changelog saying that it does...
[12:50] <USMarine> kane77 never save backups in the same machine
[12:50] <Hannah1> .avi ... .mpg
[12:50] <Hannah1> etc
[12:50] <stanislav> help me pls with my ettecap problem
[12:50] <damianl_> would it be true  in saying that 4 "3ghz" cores would make it 12ghz equiv though?
[12:50] <phiras> and the problem is that the resize/move is not activated when i press on  /dev/sda1, any idea?
[12:50] <ikonia> !offtopic | damianl_
[12:50] <cwillu> damianl_: no, it wouldn't
[12:50] <ubotu> damianl_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:50] <kane77> and what is good size for /? I want to move my /home/ to separate partition, so I'm wondering how much should I leave...
[12:50] <ikonia> damianl_: please stop discussing this
[12:50] <centyx> Frogzoo: feisty changelog even from 2006
[12:50] <USMarine> damianl_ dam no
[12:50] <murlidhar_> Hannah1: install gstreamer codecs from add remove programs
[12:50] <Agent_bob> i have a general hardware question,  are all onboard audio chips just plain crap ?   or am i Xtreemly lucky to get two in a row ?
[12:50] <damianl_> ok
[12:50] <cwillu> damianl_: go to #ubuntu-offtopic, I'll meet you there
[12:51] <ikonia> kane77 depends what you want to do and how much data you keep on not /home
[12:51] <Hannah1> murlidhar_: tnx
[12:51] <centyx> Frogzoo: perhaps my menu item issue has something to do w/ mime types?
[12:51] <phiras> Anyone knows how to use the gpart, so i can ask him?
[12:51] <centyx> Frogzoo: oh well I really don't have time for this right now, will have to burn via cmdline. thanks anyway
[12:51] <ikonia> phiras: https://help.ubuntu.com - there are guides on there
[12:52] <phiras> ikonia:i already did
[12:52] <stanislav> help me pls with ettercap
[12:52] <phiras> but
[12:52] <kane77> ikonia, well I keep all of my data in /home, so on / should be only system (plus the packages downloaded by apt-get)
[12:52] <ikonia> kane77: 4 gb
[12:52] <ikonia> phiras but what ?
[12:52] <phiras> when i press on /dev.sda1 which is the C in the windows, the resize/move is not activated
[12:52] <Hannah1> murlidhar_: are installed ! :(
[12:52] <ikonia> phiras do'nt have enough space to resize potentially
[12:52] <kane77> ikonia, okay.. I'd make that 6 to be on the safe side :)
[12:52] <phiras> ikonia
[12:53] <phiras> yes i do
[12:53] <phiras> i have 2.5 G
[12:53] <ikonia> kane77: most of mine are about 500 meg
[12:53] <ziroday> !enter | phiras
[12:53] <ubotu> phiras: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:53] <ikonia> in terms of use
[12:53] <ziroday> phiras: that is not enough to resize, if you want to try another partition tool like partition manager by norton or qtparted go ahead
[12:53] <phiras> but an image of a lock is written near teh /dev/sda1, what does this mean?
[12:54] <Hannah1> murlidhar_: my error is: Error opening/initialize/ the selected video_out (+vo) devince.
[12:54] <arinomi> I wish *buntu came with better IM programs, like AMSN and XChat
[12:54] <ziroday> phiras: it means not enough space
[12:54] <ziroday> arinomi: they are justa apt get away
[12:54] <arinomi> True :P
[12:54] <phiras> ziroday: but i have 2.5 G
[12:54] <Agent_bob> arinomi isn't xchat default on ubuntu ?
[12:55] <phiras> ziroday: 2.5 G free
[12:55] <arinomi> No, Agent_bob
[12:55] <murlidhar> Hannah1: sorry i could help u as much as i could i don't know how to solve that problem
[12:55] <ziroday> phiras: how big is the total drive?
[12:55] <arinomi> Agent_bob:  not feisty, atleast
[12:55] <user1__> how do i add a rule to allow ftp from any to any
[12:55] <phiras> 12.07 G
[12:55] <Agent_bob> arinomi hmmm ok i guess they changed soemwhere between 5.4 and 7.4
[12:55] <ziroday> phiras: please address, have you partitioned the drive already?
[12:56] <Hannah1> murlidhar: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=20039
[12:56] <phiras> Ziroday: no that driver is on Windows . it is the C:\ of the windows
[12:56] <ziroday> phiras: okay and does windows say it has 2.5G spare?
[12:57] <Hannah1> murlidhar: i resolved the problem :>
[12:57] <arinomi> phiras: I had trouble dual booting as well. My suggestion is to get out the data you want to keep, and format it all. Much easier and you become less addicted to Windows :)
[12:57] <phiras> ziroday: yes it does, and linux say the same 2.5 G free
[12:57] <Tanel> hi
[12:58] <Tanel> how to install wine
[12:58] <EvaLuaTe> hello, my computer does not recognize my network card, could someone please help me install it ?
[12:58] <murlidhar> Hannah1: cool :)
[12:58] <arinomi> Tanel: apt-get install wine
[12:58] <Tanel> ok thanks
[12:58] <phiras> Ziroday , in linux it gives me too that this driver is write protected and does not allow me to write to it or to change mode chmod ....
[12:58] <Agent_bob>    i just installed ubuntu hoary server on /dev/hdc  and the  apt-get upgrade wants to dl 60m  i guess just about the whole install needs updated.
[12:58] <CroX> I have just managed to get $ { } to work using the third level choosers in Keyboard Preferences, but now ALT+TAB seems to have died on me..
[12:59] <ziroday> phiras: okay can you do this in nautilus
[12:59] <ziroday> phiras: gksudo nautilus
[12:59] <ikonia> phiras: ntfs is read only
[12:59] <EvaLuaTe> umm, the card has an Infineon chip, model: AN983B, how could i find out what the correct driver is ?
[01:00] <Agent_bob> does anyone know if it's possable to somehow install grub on a system with no partitions ?
[01:00] <phiras> kionia: i am executing this command, but i want to resize fat32
[01:00] <ziroday> phiras: go to the driver right click, properties and you can change the permissions there
[01:01] <phiras> ziroday :nautilus:9344): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[01:01] <phiras> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.

[01:02] <Agent_bob> guess not huh
[01:03] <phiras> ikonia:  i can not change the permission on the C to be able to write on linux
[01:03] <ikonia> you need to change the mount options, not the file system
[01:03] <vegpuff> hi, when i do a sudo apt-get update, it says "timestamp too far in the future: Sep 25 16:30:47 2007"
[01:03] <murlidhar> Agent_bob: grub is not required if u are using only one operating system
[01:03] <phiras> so what should be the command line
[01:03] <Agent_bob> phiras that's because there is no permissions bit on M$ fs
[01:03] <ikonia> phiras: fat32 has no permissions to its mount options that define readonly/read-write
[01:03] <ikonia> vegpuff your clock is wrong
[01:04] <murlidhar> phiras: install ntfs-3g and ntfs-config
[01:04] <vegpuff> ikonia, should i just reset it?
[01:04] <ikonia> depends if you want that error to go away
[01:04] <tarelerulz> I have 3 computers networked and the other can't seem to see vnc and I have vncserer set up on them. I am lost as to way I can see the other
[01:05] <phiras> ikonia: is there anyway to mount the fat32 so it can be writable?
[01:05] <phiras> ikonia: and if yes what is the command line?
[01:05] <murlidhar> i guess it should auto mount
[01:06] <ikonia> phiras: man mount
[01:06] <arinomi> How can I add printers in Ubuntu?

[01:09] <tarelerulz> The weird part is one computer can see all them ,but  my big computer can't see the others when I do findsmb .  The one I am use sees some ip that is not 192  basiced

[01:10] <Hannah1> how i can install the driver for Nvidia 5200?
[01:10] <Agent_bob> carlosV2 it's in the 8k range but i can't recall the exact.   look on  freenode.net
[01:11] <EvaLuaTe> could someone help me install my ethernet card please ?
[01:11] <wilhart> gksu "update-manager -c -d", i'm trying to upgrade to gutsy from feisty, it says your system is up-to-date
[01:11] <DAMIANL> EvaLuaTe what card?
[01:11] <Crozar> i want widgets on my compiz plugin . any ideas how
[01:11] <krzysiek> hi
[01:11] <EvaLuaTe> DAMIANL: the chip is: Infineon  AN983B
[01:12] <autodidakt> DAMIANL: thx
[01:12] <carlosV2> Agent_bob, realy thanks. do you know how can i search it? i'm doing a port scan but is slow
[01:12] <EvaLuaTe> i just need to find out what the correct driver is, so i can install it with modprobe
[01:12] <ikonia> DAMIANL just to be clear I've reported you under your current and previous nick names due to your telling lies in this channel for timewasting, just to be clear
[01:12] <Agent_bob> carlosV2 yeah.   webbrowser   http://freenode.net
[01:12] <Agent_bob> carlosV2 there is info there.
[01:13] <carlosV2> ok, thanks another time :)
[01:13] <DAMIANL> ikonia great and i care because?
[01:13] <carlosV2> i'm going to read it now
[01:13] <DAMIANL> ill just change my nick and ip if im banned
[01:13] <ikonia> DAMIANL just giving you fair warning that I've reported your behaviour so it would be nice if you could respect the rules this time
[01:14] <DAMIANL> nah im fine thanks
[01:14] <Agent_bob> oh my
[01:14] <krzysiek> i have installed nvidia drivers and when i tried startx i show error: Could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl(no such file or directory)
[01:14] <krzysiek> what's happened?
[01:14] <ziroday> krzysiek: how did you install the drivers?
[01:15] <krzysiek> ./NV*.run
[01:15] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: if ubuntu doesn't load the driver at boot, you don't have it. ubuntu does hardware detection on each boot.
[01:15] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: which pci-id is the card?
[01:15] <Hannah1> Hi, i running ubuntu and i need install driver for Graphics Cad ( Nvidia 5200 ) how i can install
[01:15] <Hannah1> ! nvidia
[01:15] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:15] <phiras> i made sure now that the fat32 disk now is writable for linux and that it has 2.5 G and still has a lock in the Gparted any idea why?
[01:15] <DAMIANL> EvaLuaTe: there are drivers on there website for linux if you get them and tell me what format i can tell you how to install
[01:16] <Agent_bob> rausb0 hardware detection is not flawless.
[01:16] <EvaLuaTe> hmm, wait
[01:16] <EvaLuaTe> DAMIANL: i'm searching right now
[01:16] <ziroday> krzysiek: that way is not supported by the ubuntu community I reccomend you uninstall the drivers and do it the ubuntu way
[01:16] <ikonia> DAMIANL it is better to use the ubuntu packaged packages
[01:17] <ziroday> !nvidia | krzysiek see this
[01:17] <ubotu> krzysiek see this: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:17] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe it is better to use the ubuntu packaged drivers
[01:17] <EvaLuaTe> i found a forum where they say that this model doesn't have drivers for linux
[01:17] <rob> hmm, EvaLuaTe use Restricted Drivers Manager, do not use the drivers on the web site
[01:17] <rausb0> Agent_bob: the hardware detection is based on the modules.aliases file, which is generated from pci table infos from the drivers itself.
[01:17] <EvaLuaTe> well, how could i use the drivers ?
[01:17] <jonnymac> I have no problems playing music on my laptop speakers, when I plug in my USB speakers the little blue light goes on to show they're turned on but they don't work and instead the sound plays through the laptop speakers.
[01:17] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: i googled a bit. seems the card has a admtek chipset, which is a pain in the a**
[01:17] <ikonia>  EvaLuaTe what card is it ?
[01:17] <ikonia> exactly
[01:18] <rob> EvaLuaTe, Fire up the Restricted Drivers Manager as per the above urls, and select the driver for your graphics card and hit install
[01:18] <Agent_bob> rausb0 yeah and ?    what about people that still have isa cards in use.      ah sorry not detected   but well supported....
[01:18] <phiras> please help, i do not know why the gparted does not allow me to Move space from a fat32 partition to a linux-swap!
[01:18] <kiwilol> hey there, im having trouble running .swf media files now, ive upgraded the kernel recently, and since that i cant play media
[01:18] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: admtek was bought by infineon, and they do not really countinue this chipset
[01:18] <rausb0> Agent_bob: the card in question is a pci card
[01:18] <ikonia> phiras I've explained this to you multiple times. From your situation it is better to back up your data and re-install
[01:18] <Wanderer> I just plugged in an USB drive and my fiesty system did not automatically mount it on /media.  (Normally it does).  Is there a way to tell it to probe and mount again?
[01:18] <phiras> this is the problem
[01:19] <DAMIANL> ikonia: Yeah if there available
[01:19] <secher> does anyone know how to enable virtualization on your system, without changing it in bios (my bios does have the option, and i know the CPU supports it)
[01:19] <rausb0> Agent_bob: okay, isa is an exception
[01:19] <Agent_bob> rausb0 and i have had to modprobe a driver for an pci card too       i'm just saying that    detection is not flawless.
[01:19] <phiras> reinstalling will take  a lot of time from me , and i had then to install a lot of softwares
[01:19] <Cyph3x> wanderer thats been happening to me every so often
[01:19] <Crozar> heeelppp once i started live cd it gave me this configureing network interface fail
[01:19] <EvaLuaTe> rob: i don't have an internet connection for that machine, so i can't download anything
[01:19] <murlidhar> phiras: first u have to unmount a partition to resize it
[01:19] <rausb0> Agent_bob: for which card do you have to do that?
[01:19] <Cyph3x> unplug it and hit ctrl alt backspace
[01:19] <rob> EvaLuaTe, well you could download the driver package from packages.ubuntu.com
[01:19] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe download on the machine your on now
[01:20] <phiras> murlidhar: it is already unmounted
[01:20] <Agent_bob> not do  but did.     ne2k-pci   for some reason i had one that wasn't detected...   any as you know that's a well supported card.
[01:20] <coucou747> hi all
[01:20] <toto8843> wanderer: go to system/preferences/removable drive and media
[01:20] <Quak3r> hi
[01:20] <krzysiek> !nvidia
[01:20] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:20] <Agent_bob> @ rausb0   ^
[01:20] <Fish-Face> Hi folks, I'm having extreme issues trying to install Feisty. Any of the install options on the menu, plus the "check CD for defects" cause a blank screen
[01:20] <kiwilol> hey there, im having trouble running .swf media files now, ive upgraded the kernel recently, and since that i cant play media
[01:20] <DAMIANL> ikonia, rob, that file is quite big though
[01:20] <EvaLuaTe> ok, so what exactly should i download ?
[01:21] <rausb0> Agent_bob: udev hardware detection simply lets modprobe match the ids read from sysfs match against modules.aliases
[01:21] <Fish-Face> Going to the text menu and typing "live vga=771" gets me a graphical boot screen
[01:21] <rob> DAMIANL, one way or another he will have to download it to get it to work
[01:21] <Fish-Face> But after a while it just hangs and the caps/scroll lock blink
[01:21] <ikonia> DAMIANL if he needs the drivers, the size of the file is not going to change
[01:21] <DAMIANL> evaluate: better off geting a 1mb file fom there website
[01:21] <Fish-Face> No keyboard input seems to work, and I have to hard reboot
[01:21] <Fish-Face> needless to say I can't install :)
[01:21] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe: ignore that, compatability is key
[01:21] <DAMIANL> evaluate: dont listen to them
[01:21] <Agent_bob> rausb0 ok   then that's why.    didn't have  /sys   on that system.
[01:21] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe: use the files provided by ubuntu
[01:21] <Agent_bob> don't ask.
[01:22] <EvaLuaTe> ikonia: WICH ONES ?
[01:22] <autodidakt> hm
[01:22] <autodidakt> how old are u guys? :D
[01:22] <rausb0> Agent_bob: well i was speaking of _ubuntu_ hardware detection
[01:22] <phiras> murlidhar: as u said i unmounted it and i can now resize/move, and now how to move the unused space to another parition?
[01:22] <salamkenal> ikonia:what is quotas
[01:22] <DAMIANL> lol nerds...love it how you all think your so good...well guess what..i never got beat up in high school
[01:22] <salamkenal> !info quotas
[01:22] <ubotu> Package quotas does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[01:22] <carlosV2> it seems could be 8192 but i can't connect with this port
[01:22] <rausb0> Agent_bob: and ubuntu feisty uses udev for that
[01:23] <krzysiek> if i have geforce 2 mx 440 i should use nvidia-legacy or nvidia-glx?? Restricted Devices Manager is choosing nvidia-glx
[01:23] <ikonia> salamkenal: quotas are "limits"
[01:23] <autodidakt> how do i allow other users then root to use my dvd/cd burner?
[01:24] <ikonia> autodidakt: look at the permissions on the /dev/dvd device and grant the users member ship to the right groups
[01:24] <phiras> ikonia: i unmounted the fat32 and i can now resize/move, and now how to move the unused space to another parition?
[01:24] <salamkenal> ikonia:so what soulution do you have to progress mine?
[01:25] <ikonia> salamkenal wait until October and move to gusty
[01:25] <salamkenal> ow ic

[01:26] <abbe_> how do i install it?
[01:26] <ziroday> abbe_: double click on it....
[01:26] <autodidakt> ikonia: i am new to this... so should i just set the owner to my user?
[01:26] <mikubuntu> help! i installed (x)ubuntu on my friends laptop, mostly flawless install.  BUT, when she goes to her aol mail (make sign of the cross now), she gets all kinds of bugs and error messages.  one in particular keeps coming up that some script is running, etc, etc,  also, if she checks mail for deletion, the deletion doesn't execute, and the whole thing is slow and buggy when on aol.  no such...
[01:26] <salamkenal> ikonia:thank you so much for your reply, you help me so much
[01:26] <mikubuntu> ...problem apparently in yahoo or similar sites... anybody have any esperience similar, or can point me to a fix, i would appreciate ...
[01:26] <abbe_> lol :P
[01:26] <abbe_> thx:D

[01:27] <cwillu> damianl:  I don't know what you're talking about:  the jocks paid me in highschool, and I've done a couple stints as a bouncer in the last year
[01:27] <damianl> :P
[01:27] <carlosV2> there are a freenode channel?
[01:27] <cwillu> bah, that means you missed my witty retort

[01:27] <carlosV2> thanks, rob
[01:28] <rob> np
[01:28] <Agent_bob> who was i talking with just a minute ago      (modem reset on me again)
[01:28] <EvaLuaTe> so, could someone please help me find the correct driver for my ethernet cards ?
[01:29] <autodidakt> ikonia: and where to do that? i just clicked on "cdrom" in /dev/ --> properties-->permissions
[01:29] <salamkenal> #redhat
[01:30] <phiras> Anyone knows how to assign unallocated partition to another partition using the gpart?
[01:30] <dn4> Anyone here know of a website talking about building cores, from micro processor chips
[01:30] <ikonia> autodidakt no, you change the user permissions
[01:30] <ikonia> autodidakt not the device
[01:30] <simarillion>  hi which package contains include files for c++ for example float.h ???
[01:30] <dn4> or more about what the core is
[01:30] <ikonia> dn4 this is ubuntu support, for ubuntu support issues
[01:30] <cwillu>  simarillion:  build-essential should do it;  if you want the particular package, look at the depends for it
[01:30] <USMarine> what key is "Super"?
[01:31] <hdh> autodidakt: in system--> users and groups, add your user to the group cdrom
[01:31] <kbrooks> boo
[01:31] <Agent_bob> autodidakt while it will work,  that change is not sticky.   reboot will reset that permission  because /dev/* is not on the hd, it's in ram
[01:31] <simarillion> I tried build-essentials without success
[01:31] <mjrclark> USMarine: the windows key
[01:31] <ikonia> phiras for the last time - read the guide on https://help.ubuntu.com - it waslks you through it
[01:31] <Quak3r> simarillion, have you tried build-essential ? (or build-essentials)
[01:31] <jonnymac> can't find out on the net some support docs for usb speakers how-to
[01:31] <phiras> ikonia: it is not easy thing that i am looking for, i already read the help !!!!
[01:32] <ikonia> phiras you've not - its straight forward to resize a partition. I strongly suggest you back and re-install with the correct partitions sizes
[01:32] <phiras> i am looking for an expert in the gpart, is anyone here expert?
[01:32] <wilhart> huu why doesnt my update-manager recognize gutsy? says its up to date with feisty
[01:32] <autodidakt> hdh: there is no group "cdrom" or "dvd" ... :/
[01:32] <simarillion> Yes it is installed
[01:32] <ikonia> phiras you do'nt need an expert you just need to follow the guide
[01:32] <weau> no phiras :P
[01:32] <ikonia> wilhart gusty is not out
[01:33] <wilhart> ikonia: i want that unstabled version
[01:33] <EvaLuaTe> how could i update my kernel version in ubuntu ?
[01:33] <hdh> autodidakt: ls -l /dev/cdrom to see what's its group then
[01:33] <ikonia> wilhart then you need to manually update it
[01:33] <wilhart> ikonia: how?
[01:33] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe you don't,
[01:33] <USMarine> thanks mjrclark
[01:33] <ikonia> wilhart install a alpha version or change the repo's to point at gusty
[01:33] <wilhart> ikonia: edit sources.list and put feisty to gutsy?
[01:33] <hdh> wilhart: for devel versions, join #ubuntu-devel
[01:33] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe ubuntu will make new kernels available when appropriate
[01:33] <autodidakt> hdh: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2007-09-25 15:02 /dev/cdrom -> scd0
[01:34] <rob> gah. Don't recommend development versions everyone :)
[01:34] <autodidakt> hdh: but again ...cant find this group
[01:34] <simarillion> Yes build-essentials is installed
[01:34] <EvaLuaTe> ikonia: i found there is a kernel version which supports my ethernet card, it's 2.6.21, so i would have to upgrade for it to work
[01:34] <ziroday> hdh: wilhart: actually no its #ubuntu+1 for gutsy
[01:34] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe just use the drivers in ubuntu
[01:34] <madera> Hello, my videos appear as a green picture... what do I do?
[01:34] <cwillu> EvaLuaTe: it's possible to install a newer kernel in an older ubuntu
[01:34] <Agent_bob> phiras i can mention one thought that you may want to consider.   M$ file systems get inodes scattered all over them (that's why you have to defrag them sometimes)  and it's a good idea to boot M$ and defrag befor sizing them.
[01:35] <EvaLuaTe> ikonia: what drivers, and how to use them please ? i'm new to linux.
[01:35] <ikonia> cwillu but unwise unless you know what your doing
[01:35] <cwillu> EvaLuaTe: fiesty?
[01:35] <kbrooks> Agent_bob, immaturity.
[01:35] <EvaLuaTe> no, dapper, server edition
[01:35] <cwillu> ah, k
[01:35] <wilhart> how do i fastly change all feisty to gutsy in sources.list?
[01:35] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe update to efesity
[01:35] <ikonia> fesity
[01:35] <wilhart> my
[01:35] <Agent_bob> kbrooks ?
[01:35] <Quak3r> feysti!
[01:35] <Quak3r> lol
[01:35] <hdh> autodidakt: is every groups shown? anyway don't add yourself to the root group
[01:35] <kbrooks> Agent_bob, also, you say "boot M$" not "boot Windows"
[01:35] <ikonia> wilhart use sed
[01:35] <cyph3x> LOL
[01:35] <jonnymac> anybody got any ideas on how to locate and activate usb speakers, plz?
[01:36] <kbrooks> Agent_bob, and god, if you can't simplify down inodes, you don't understand what they are
[01:36] <EvaLuaTe> so, how could i apply a newer kernel version to and older ubuntu ?
[01:36] <wilhart> ikonia: so i was thinking need the syntax tho
[01:36] <autodidakt> hdh: u mean in the group manager? no doesnt look like :/
[01:36] <tarelerulz> I try to play a song on my other computer and the song name name has spaces in it and I did mplayer -loop 0 "somesong.mp3  I did not now put the " on it and I now have < and I want to know how to get out of that and back to normal shell?
[01:36] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe that would be unwise
[01:36] <cwillu> EvaLuaTe: if you're running dapper, I wouldn't actually
[01:36] <EvaLuaTe> ohh my
[01:36] <Hannah1> How i can install Nvidia drivers?
[01:36] <ikonia> wilhart if you can't do that, you shouldn't be updating to dev versions
[01:36] <cwillu> EvaLuaTe: major udev changes, it'll cause grief
[01:36] <Agent_bob> kbrooks what are you on about ?
[01:36] <EvaLuaTe> i don't have the nerves to install everything again
[01:37] <wilhart> ikonia: but it's almost out and i've heard that these hasnt been problems in months
[01:37] <kbrooks> Agent_bob, i'm on about what you said
[01:37] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe it will be easier than kernel updates
[01:37] <cyph3x> quit
[01:37] <ikonia> wilhart you heard wrong
[01:37] <cwillu> I've got debs for fiesty, and patches to make udev still work as expected with 2.6.23, but that won't help you
[01:37] <cyph3x> doh
[01:37] <EvaLuaTe> i have spent almost a month to get the system like it is right now
[01:37] <Agent_bob> kbrooks ok if i said something incorrect.  point it out.
[01:37] <wilhart> ikonia sed 's/feisty/gutsy'
[01:37] <ikonia> EvaLuaTe then take note of the config and reboot
[01:37] <Chousuke> kbrooks: Do you think it's wise to argue that here? :P
[01:37] <ikonia> wilhart I know how to do it thanks
[01:37] <rob> kbrooks, lets be nice :)
[01:37] <indraveni> hi all
[01:38] <SBCU> hello all
[01:38] <hdh> tarelerulz: that's the shell waiting for you to type in a matching ", if you want to quit, just ctrl-c
[01:38] <indraveni> syslinux command is throuwing an error message saying
[01:38] <indraveni>  Syntax error at line 1 column 6 in file /root/.mtoolsrc: drive letter expected
[01:38] <kbrooks> Chousuke, no...
[01:38] <indraveni> and my .mtoolsrc file is having only one line as,
[01:38] <indraveni> drive sdb1: file="/dev/sdb1"
[01:38] <murlidhar_> phiras: use live cd to use gparted for more info http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=528006&highlight=resize+fat32+partition
[01:39] <kbrooks> indraveni, missing drive letter.
[01:39] <SBCU> could anybody help me out here, I'm having a problem with running renoise 1.8.0 it won't load the .cur files for the cursors, that is the negative reaction I get when trying to open it atleast
[01:39] <SBCU> if you could help me, please
[01:39] <indraveni> kbrooks, but the drive letter is present
[01:39] <indraveni> kbrooks, its sdb1
[01:40] <autodidakt> hdh: in the properties of the cdrom in /dev/ there is a group "cdrom" but cant find it in the groupmanager. scd0 isnt there too. maybe its because its a sata drive?
[01:40] <tarelerulz>  hdh , thanks  a lot I run into that a lot and I never have know how to get out of it.  I am sure someone told me ,but I forgot
[01:40] <kbrooks> indraveni, /dev/sdb1 is a file that represents your 2nd sata hard drive, partition 1.
[01:41] <kbrooks> indraveni, /dev/sdb1 is not a drive letter. it is a file.
[01:41] <Agent_bob> indraveni haven't kept up with you   but sdb1 is not a drive   it's a partition on drive  sdb
[01:41] <hdh> autodidakt: I remember there's a tickbox to show system groups; I can't check though, on KDE
[01:41] <carlosV2> thanks for all
[01:41] <carlosV2> bye!
[01:41] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: is the tulip kernel module loaded?
[01:42] <kbrooks> Agent_bob, i just explained
[01:42] <EvaLuaTe> rausb0: how can i find out if it is ?
[01:42] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: lsmod | grep tulip
[01:42] <hdh> autodidakt: maybe in your user's setting, there's a tickbox like "use optical drive", in the last tab
[01:42] <carlosV2> (to close this window is /quit or this will close irssi?)
[01:42] <EvaLuaTe> ok, one second
[01:42] <USMarine> hdh kusermanager ?
[01:43] <Agent_bob> carlosV2 /part #ubuntu
[01:43] <mikubuntu> help! i installed (x)ubuntu on my friends laptop, mostly flawless install.  BUT, when she goes to her aol mail (make sign of the cross now), she gets all kinds of bugs and error messages.  one in particular keeps coming up that some script is running, etc, etc,  also, if she checks mail for deletion, the deletion doesn't execute, and the whole thing is slow and buggy when on aol.  no such...
[01:43] <mikubuntu> ...problem apparently in yahoo or similar sites... anybody have any esperience similar, or can point me to a fix, i would appreciate ...
[01:43] <hdh> USMarine: I think autodidakt is using ubuntu, not k
[01:43] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: from what i googled, the card should be supported by that module, unless it is a very rare version of that card
[01:43] <carlosV2> ok, thanks Agent_bob, bye! ^^
[01:43] <autodidakt> hdh: yes youre right but its allready aktivated. i mean i can use the cdrom but i cant burn with my user
[01:43] <Agent_bob> np
[01:43] <SBCU> sorry, could you please help me here, has anybody got experience with installing renoise on ubuntu?
[01:44] <USMarine> hdh it will work either way
[01:44] <USMarine> mikubuntu what browser?
[01:44] <autodidakt> yes its gnome
[01:45] <mikubuntu> USMarine: ummmm, i'm *sure* firefox
[01:45] <Agent_bob> does anyone know if it's possable to install grub on hda (no partitions)  ?
[01:45] <EvaLuaTe> god damn it, the system halts at 'configuring network interfaces'. i HATE this!
[01:45] <hdh> autodidakt: I can burn disc, and my groups are: hdh adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev netdev scanner lpadmin powerdev admin
[01:46] <mikubuntu> usmarine: she has the laptop home now i did the install last week
[01:46] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: did this happen before?
[01:46] <JohnFlux> Hey all
[01:46] <EvaLuaTe> no
[01:46] <USMarine> mikubuntu javascript disabled?
[01:46] <JohnFlux> I need to use an older kernel version - 2.6.20 instead of 2.6.22
[01:46] <JohnFlux> But I can't work out how to get the nvidia drivers working
[01:47] <mikubuntu> USMarine: where do i look?
[01:47] <autodidakt> hdh: where to find my groups? in the group manager i can just find user previleges
[01:47] <SBCU> JohnFlux look for Envy on the internet, download it
[01:47] <tarelerulz> One thing I like about KDE over gnome is Konqueor is web browser and file manager too is very helpful  when you do a lot of work . You are offtine reading about something and need to edit a file . Plus it has file filter and  file size view which helps for see how much space you have and where the big files are you need to removie
[01:47] <autodidakt> hdh: sry for beeing such a noob :/
[01:47] <hdh> autodidakt: in a terminal, type groups
[01:47] <JohnFlux> thanks
[01:47] <SBCU> you're welcome JohnFlux
[01:47] <rob> tarelerulz, off topic, please take it elsewhere.
[01:48] <hdh> autodidakt: no need for sorrying up front, it might be wasted :)
[01:48] <USMarine> mikubuntu firefox preferences
[01:48] <seamus7> Hi.. how can I get Network Manager to attempt to stop trying to connect to the old ESSID of my home network. I changed the ESSID but it's still listed as one of the available wireless networks and when I log in NM goes to it first.
[01:49] <SBCU> well, does anybody know how to make renoise work on ubuntu? please with a cherry on top
[01:49] <USMarine> tarelerulz unforunately that will change in kde 4
[01:49] <mikubuntu> USMarine: thanks, and, btw, i salute you
[01:49] <EvaLuaTe> rausb0: lsmod | grep tulip didn't return anything.
[01:49] <autodidakt> hdh: i got exactly the same groups
[01:50] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: then the tulip module in the dapper kernel really seems too old
[01:50] <hdh> USMarine: filebrowsing and sizeview are still available in konq though
[01:50] <EvaLuaTe> what could i do about it ?
[01:50] <tarelerulz> USMarine that is one reason I don't run kde 4.  Newer is not all ways better.
[01:50] <USMarine> hdh but the default explorer will be dolphin
[01:50] <hdh> autodidakt: try "fuser /dev/cdrom"
[01:50] <USMarine> and not konqueror
[01:51] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: other than updating the kernel? i dont know. and dapper's udev could have problems with newer kernels
[01:51] <USMarine> well dolphin is better in some ways
[01:51] <SBCU> sigh, I don't want to start spamming, but I really want help with this renoise
[01:51] <SBCU> please
[01:52] <EvaLuaTe> rausb0: and how could i update the kernel ?
[01:52] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: for identifying the card better, please type in this:  lspci -n | grep 0200
[01:52] <hdh> rausb0: lspci -nn shows some text about vendor/name too
[01:52] <rausb0> hdh: yeah, but i want the numeric id
[01:52] <tarelerulz> I run 3 computer and all have ubuntu 7.04 on them and I think I installed vncserver on them or tightvnc sever and client and one of them I can't seem to get vnc . could it be vncsever and tightvnc server be conflicting
[01:53] <EvaLuaTe> rausb0: i get two lines: 1904:2031 (rev 01), and 10b7:9004 (rev 04)
[01:53] <Pici> SBCU: What is renoise?
[01:53] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: let me google...
[01:53] <EvaLuaTe> although, now i have 3 ethernet cards installed, i installed the old one to have internet access from that machine
[01:53] <SBCU> Pici: music making program, I'm leaving for two weeks and have to give my girlfriend something to do, she loves it, but it is of course... windows...
[01:53] <EvaLuaTe> so, if i have 3, shouldn't that command output 3 lines ?
[01:54] <Agent_bob> SBCU will it run in wine ?
[01:54] <seamus7> Anyone know why, after I changed the Essid and enabled wireless security, Network Manager still lists my old Essid and tries to connect with it first upon boot up?
[01:54] <arinomi> !offtopic
[01:54] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:54] <SBCU> Agent_bob: it does run in wine, but it halts at the .cur files when opening
[01:55] <Agent_bob> hmmm  ;/
[01:55] <autodidakt> hdh: hm now i am able to burn with nautilus but nerlinux still says that i have no permission to /dev/sg0. i dont understand why its now about some sg0 device?!
[01:56] <autodidakt> hdh: *nerolinux
[01:56] <corporal_clegg> hello, I'm looking for a tool to sync a local directory with a remote directory using ftp. Is there something I could use?
[01:56] <Agent_bob> autodidakt scsi controler device.
[01:56] <madera> Anyone know how to reinstall video codecs?
[01:56] <autodidakt> Agent_bob yap but its a sata and no scsi device
[01:57] <sileni> anyone know why when i try to install ubuntu fiesty i get bios bug[XXXXXXXXX]  and my screen goes wierd?
[01:57] <hdh> autodidakt: try using k3b, it's free software, and in the ubuntu repo, depends on some parts of kde though
[01:57] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: the second id is a 3com card, for the first one i didnt get any unambigous google results..
[01:57] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: really strange hardware
[01:57] <EvaLuaTe> well, the first one works, it's the card i had before, but it's pretty screwed up
[01:57] <Agent_bob> autodidakt but all burning used to use scsi or scsi-emulation   i don't know if that has changed...  so the burner is probably looking for the scsi controler
[01:57] <EvaLuaTe> so i bought two new cards
[01:57] <madera> silent: is it a new computer?
[01:58] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: the first one? no, the second one is the 3com
[01:58] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: and the 3com should work
[01:58] <Agent_bob> either way  you could check the group on that device    ls -l /dev/sg0   and see if you are in that group.
[01:58] <IdleOne> autodidakt: gnomebaker is also good and wont bring in all of the kde libs
[01:58] <EvaLuaTe> yes, the 3com is what i meant
[01:58] <sileni> madera, yes
[01:58] <EvaLuaTe> it's my old one
[01:59] <Agent_bob> just a thought autodidakt   ^
[01:59] <madera> sileni: get a newer one then
[01:59] <hdh> autodidakt: and there's also brasero, clean gnome interface
[01:59] <sileni> it has a nividia geforce go 6100 vido card
[01:59] <sileni> is that the matter?
[01:59] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: the card seems not to be an admtek chipset, but rtl8193d (the d revision seems to be the problem)
[02:00] <Agent_bob> for cd burning   i always liked  xcdroast    too
[02:00] <madera> sileni: this happens with the boot cd?
[02:00] <sileni> madera,yup
[02:00] <sileni> after the bios bug screen it loads up
[02:00] <IdleOne> !alternate | sileni
[02:00] <sileni> like when xorg is supposed to come for live cd it goes wierd
[02:00] <ubotu> sileni: 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
[02:00] <madera> sileni: but then you can continue booting and install the os then?
[02:00] <seamus7> Hi.. how can I get Network Manager to attempt connection with my wireless network first rather than attempting to connect with my old unsecured network (essid) that's actually non-existent? It's a linksys wireless router.
[02:00] <EvaLuaTe> rausb0: well, i have this rtc8193d (it's rtc, not rtl) and the amdtek one, but the amdtek one doesn't seem to be recognised by the system
[02:00] <autodidakt> hdh: yes but i need nero to burn *.img. i mean it works if i use "sudo nero" but i wanted to find the reason why i cant use nero with my own user
[02:00] <sileni> madera,nope it just stays there
[02:01] <sileni> i tried ctrl alt bkspce but that doesnt kill anything
[02:01] <madera> sileni: can you tell me what is the last executed part?
[02:01] <hdh> autodidakt: you mean .nrg of nero?
[02:01] <madera> sileni: as in the last piece of information displayed
[02:01] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: so you removed the admtek card now and put the rtc in?
[02:02] <sileni> it says like loading keymap, restricted drivers .....
[02:02] <sileni> and tuff like that
[02:02] <autodidakt> hdh: no just *.img
[02:02] <EvaLuaTe> rausb0: no, all 3 are currently installed in the computer
[02:02] <myconid> god.. i right click on a 1.6gb iso, and it burns to a dvd.  like magic.  im amazed.
[02:02] <madera> sileni: so you do boot up. You just need to know what is destroying it. Tried other Linuxes?
[02:02] <sileni> madera, yup i got upto having kde working on slackware
[02:03] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: then the lspci command should have returned three lines
[02:03] <sileni> but wireless is another problem
[02:03] <EvaLuaTe> rausb0: well, it doesn't :/
[02:03] <myconid> sileni: pcmcia or pci?
[02:03] <madera> sileni: enter the interactive mode during startup and pinpoint what's wrong
[02:03] <sileni> myconid, i dont know what pcmcia or pci is
[02:03] <mojo> has anyone here have success customization with persistent USB (i am talking about casper here)?
[02:04] <Jack_Sparrow> mojo: YEs..on Dapper
[02:04] <mojo> Jack_Sparrow: hi there, I read that Feisty does not work with casper
[02:04] <madera> sileni: pcmcia: a card that you slide into the computer (normally notebooks), pci: a card that is inserted into your computer on desktops
[02:04] <erUSUL> EvaLuaTe: have you issued sudo update-pciids ?? can you post the output of lspci (all) to pastebin?
[02:04] <mojo> Jack_Sparrow: and they said Gutsy will
[02:04] <myconid> then there is minipci .. which is internal on a laptop
[02:04] <Jack_Sparrow> mojo: That is my understanding as well
[02:05] <sileni> myconid, oh the wireless is minipci
[02:05] <mojo> Jack_Sparrow: and I did try Gutsy but doesn't work too, I ended up with hang over screen
[02:05] <sileni> its already bulit on laptop
[02:05] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: your card is a realtek fake made in india! http://geektalkin.blogspot.com/2006/04/intex-zebronics-fake-rtc8139drtl8139d.html
[02:05] <autodidakt> hdh: hm i guess the main problem is not about the user because mounting the device doesnt work all the time
[02:05] <Rageon> hey guys how do i get DVD movies working?
[02:05] <Jack_Sparrow> mojo: They will get it worked out
[02:05] <Rageon> do i just need codecs?
[02:06] <myconid> is an office jet 570 inkjet or laser?
[02:06] <autodidakt> hdh: sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt. dont know what to do. maybe there is sth wrong with the driver?
[02:06] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: you wouldn't have much fun with that card, even if it was supported
[02:06] <Jack_Sparrow> myconid: that should be inkjet
[02:06] <USMarine> what's the shortcut to open the console in gdm ?
[02:07] <EvaLuaTe> ok rausb0, thank you
[02:07] <USMarine> alt+f3
[02:07] <myconid> Jack: thx.. looks like your right.. what part of the name denotes a laser? (I have a officejet at work thats a laser)
[02:07] <USMarine> ?
[02:07] <kkathman> if I am logged in a gnome session,  have no k-applications running (but do have kubuntu-desktop running), is there a reason why apps like knotify, khelper, kthread, kacpid, etc cant be killed ??
[02:07] <jmg> guys if i have i915 do i run xgl or just X?
[02:07] <jmg> i cant figure out how to disable Xgl
[02:07] <kkathman> I mean - kubuntu-desktop loaded (not running)
[02:07] <Jack_Sparrow> myconid: I am a bit sleepy yet, but I think it is a laserjet
[02:07] <jmg> and compiz chokes on gnome-window-decorator
[02:08] <Rageon> hey guys how do i get DVD movies working?
[02:08] <cockroach> hi. we're planning to organize a linux install event in november where we intend to install ubuntu. i suppose, by then 7.10 should be out, right? from your experience, do you think it will be possible to have official cds here by mid-november?
[02:08] <Rageon> do i just need libdvdcss2 ?
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> !dvd
[02:08] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[02:08] <erUSUL> jmg: run just X
[02:08] <jmg> erUSUL: how do i switch?
[02:08] <jmg> !xgl
[02:08] <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
[02:08] <myconid> sql server 2005 doesnt like ubuntu :D
[02:08] <erUSUL> jmg: revert the changes you made to install xgl
[02:08] <jmg> erUSUL: gdmsetup doesnt seem to help
[02:09] <jmg> erUSUL: i didnt make any changes
[02:09] <Rageon> cheers
[02:09] <erUSUL> jmg: then you are not running xgl becouse you have to actually install it and tweak a few files to get xgl instead of plain X in ubuntu
[02:09] <jmg> my gdm.conf-custom has /usr/bin/X -br -audit 0
[02:10] <jmg> but Xgl launches
[02:10] <Rageon> will i need to reboot once ive installed the dvd drivers?
[02:10] <jmg> instead
[02:10] <jmg> Rageon: no
[02:10] <Rageon> tfg :)
[02:10] <jmg> !xgl
[02:10] <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
[02:10] <Rageon> mmm it says i already have libdvdread3 installed?
[02:11] <erUSUL> jmg: if xgl launches instead of X is becouse something you did (or automatix or something else you runned as root)
[02:11] <jmg> i didnt run automatix
[02:11] <jmg> but i am telling you
[02:11] <jmg> that despite my gdm.conf-custom specifying X
[02:11] <jmg> Xgl is launching
[02:12] <jmg> perhaps i should just apt-get remove Xgl
[02:12] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: alright, i googled further. kernel 2.6.22 has a driver for this fake realtek card (called sc92031)
[02:13] <tarelerulz> I just ssh into one of my  computer and I know if I looked at the screen it would be at where you put you use name and password .
[02:13] <Rageon> !dvd
[02:13] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[02:13] <mojo> Can someone point me to a right website to show how to fix Feisty initrd to enable persistent mode?
[02:13] <tarelerulz> What services are running right now ?
[02:14] <jmg> after removing Xgl compiz still doesnt work
[02:14] <hdh> autodidakt: I'm out of idea, but I urge you to convert those img to iso, that's the way to keep your data
[02:14] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: so at least a newer kernel should do with the 1904:2031 card
[02:14] <erUSUL> jmg: why did you installed it in the first place? is an optional package... maybe the instalation makes a link so X points to Xgl (i doubt it)?

[02:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dualmonitors - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:23] <Quak3r> but i can open them with totem so Ill do it agan
[02:24] <Rageon> how do i get 4 desktops instead of 2?
[02:24] <Rageon> !desktops
[02:24] <ubotu> A desktop environment is what "puts the pieces of a !GUI together". The available desktop environments in Ubuntu are !GNOME (ubuntu-desktop), !KDE (kubuntu-desktop), !Xfce (xubuntu-desktop), IceWM, !Fluxbox, WindowMaker (wmaker), FVWM and others - See also !Flavors
[02:24] <IdleOne> Rageon: right click on the 2 you have and select prefs
[02:24] <Rageon> will it use more memory?
[02:25] <netsrot> Hi, how do I check which version of Glib I have installed? is it possible to install glib 2.6 or newer on feisty?
[02:25] <IdleOne> no
[02:25] <Rageon> yay for ubuntu
[02:25] <gamer> hi there
[02:25] <IdleOne> Rageon: only if you have apps running on all 4 so that means if you run 20 apps on 4 desktops it will use as much as 20 apps on 2 desktops
[02:25] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi
[02:25] <Rageon> cool :)
[02:26] <gamer> hi kopfgeldjaeger
[02:26] <seamus7> How do I flush out an old SSID so that Network Manager no longer attempts to connect to it? I don't understand why it still sees it.
[02:26] <Rageon> IdleOne: i have a screen and a tv hooked up.. both have 2 desktops on each ... how do i say view desktops on each of the screens if u know what i mean
[02:26] <Rageon> like
[02:27] <Rageon> right now im watching a movie on my tv desktop 1.. id like to switch to tv desktop 1 to view on my normal monitor
[02:27] <[-Haza-] > Hello folks. I have just installed a frsh version of Ubuntu 7 desktop edition and also installed Samba. I want to set a password for my user so i goto the terminal and type smbpasswd with no arguements. Im prompted for an old password so i press enter and then type in my new password twice but i get the error "Could not connect to the machine 127.0.0.1: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE". I am trying this smbpasswd command on the local machine
[02:27] <Rageon> while its running
[02:27] <[-Haza-] > any pointers?
[02:27] <IdleOne> Rageon: multiple screens is something I would like trying someday but I have no idea how it works
[02:28] <cwillu> Rageon: like, a single wide desktop, or two seperate sessions?
[02:28] <Rageon> mm ok no worries.. if got them both working fine... just they cant talk to each other persa
[02:28] <Rageon> its 2 sep sessions
[02:28] <IdleOne> Rageon: try cl;icking on desktop1 on the monitor to see if it switches
[02:28] <cwillu> but a single mouse and keyboard?
[02:28] <cwillu> Rageon: xinerama isn't turned on then
[02:28] <Rageon> i know i dont want 1 big desktop
[02:29] <cwillu> you want two seperate seats?
[02:29] <cwillu> i.e., two keyboard, mice?
[02:29] <Rageon> i want different sessions which i can "login to" from the other screens?
[02:29] <Rageon> not even sessions.. but u know what i mean?
[02:29] <Mr-Snick> Dual Screen
[02:29] <Mr-Snick> lol
[02:29] <Mr-Snick> jeeze
[02:29] <IdleOne> cwillu: two screens 1 kb/mouse
[02:30] <Rageon> id like to have 4 desktops, the 2 on my monitor and 2 on my TV.. all accessable on both monitors?
[02:30] <cwillu> Rageon: okay, possible, but slow
[02:30] <Rageon> so i can switch to my TVdesktops from my monitor..
[02:30] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: does the machine have internet access?
[02:30] <Rageon> why so
[02:30] <cwillu> basically, move a virtual screen around
[02:30] <EvaLuaTe> rausb0, yes it does
[02:30] <Rageon> what ya mean mate?
[02:31] <Mr-Snick> Rageon: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_setup_Dual_Monitors_with_NVidia_in_Feisty_Fawn
[02:31] <[-Haza-] > ack! bloody error
[02:31] <Rageon> cheers Mr-Snick ill check it out
[02:31] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: i could assist compiling a new kernel. but i dont know if it will work
[02:31] <Rageon> lol dude ive got dual monitors setup :P
[02:31] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: and it will take some time
[02:31] <Rageon> but more involved than that
[02:31] <Mr-Snick> Well nvm then
[02:31] <Rageon> bit*
[02:31] <EvaLuaTe> rausb0, i found a guide using google
[02:32] <Rageon> ty anyway
[02:32] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: alright
[02:32] <gamer> i was wondering if anybody here can tell me how to pipe /dev/random to /dev/mouse, i need it for an art project
[02:32] <IdleOne> cwillu: I think what he wants is to have 4 desktops split onto 2 seperate monitors. being able to look at desktop3/4 from monitor 1 and so on
[02:32] <EvaLuaTe> rausb0, i'll just ask if i get stuck :)
[02:32] <Rageon> there are no stupid answers here.                    just stupid people.
[02:32] <Rageon> jkjkjk :) simpons!
[02:32] <DexterF> hi
[02:32] <DexterF> !hardware
[02:32] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:33] <rausb0> EvaLuaTe: just make sure you keep the old kernel so you can boot the machine even if the new kernel doesnt work
[02:33] <Rageon> !makingmydualnvidiadesktopsallinthesame
[02:33] <cwillu> IdleOne: Rageon:  turning off xinerama would do it then, as long as you don't care about dragging stuff between screens
[02:33] <IdleOne> !botabuse | Rageon
[02:33] <ubotu> Rageon: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[02:33] <[nrx] > how do you ls a dir and display the latest modified files?
[02:34] <Rageon> xinerama is off? im pretty sure
[02:34] <Rageon> *checks
[02:34] <Rageon> rofl my monitors are only running at 50hz
[02:35] <jatt> [nrx] : ls -altr
[02:36] <Rageon> my sound is at max and i can hardly hear it?
[02:36] <serishema> what kind of resources does the ubuntu project need to be able to continue to support ppc platforms in the future?
[02:37] <Rageon> a unicorn, walt disney and $10,000.
[02:37] <Rageon> should do it
[02:37] <Rageon> dunno dude :)
[02:37] <Rageon> im a nub
[02:37] <Rageon> *waves
[02:37] <iarwain> serishema: i reckon some dev's, money, and perhaps testers?
[02:37] <jatt> and a pony
[02:37] <serishema> iamchris: sounds logical
[02:37] <kkathman> ppc has no future, almost all linux distros have or will drop support for it
[02:37] <Rageon> yea the pony will make the unicorn look even better
[02:37] <iarwain> Rageon: did you check kmix?
[02:38] <[nrx] > jatt: thanks
[02:38] <kkathman> Rageon:  good comment tho - and appropriate :)
[02:38] <Rageon> :)
[02:38] <fakenick> I have an assignment for a college course where I need to add voice to a video.  Is there any Ubuntu compatible application that can do this easily?  The file is a .mov ....
[02:38] <Rageon> if kmix is the thing in my taskbar showing the sound icon then yea lol
[02:39] <serishema> i realise there aren't that many people who want to run linux on old macs.
[02:39] <Rageon> says alsa mixer
[02:39] <iarwain> Rageon: the ones i can remember, are kmix and perhaps alsamixer
[02:39] <Rageon> yea alsa mixers what ive got
[02:39] <cosmodad> can anyone using avidemux tell me if the navigation keys (2-8) to forward/reverse among frames works?
[02:39] <Rageon> it doesnt have any detection problems
[02:39] <cosmodad> it stopped doing so when I upgraded to 2.3
[02:40] <iarwain> Rageon: not to check for detection problems, but see if alsamixer has gotten stuff turned down
[02:40] <Rageon> other then the low sound and occasional cracking at high sub woofs works..
[02:40] <Rageon> yea i have dude master / wave at max
[02:40] <Rageon> ahh turned up PCM that helped .. (a bit) lol
[02:41] <iarwain> Rageon: i have no idea then :)
[02:41] <Rageon> lol no worried, thx anyways
[02:41] <Rageon> worries*
[02:41] <Rageon> would be cool if we had a unicorn tho.. could be ubunticorn
[02:42] <jonnymac> any ideas if it's normal that I can't click and drag with the mouse?
[02:42] <jatt> jonnymac: in xterm that's pretty normal
[02:42] <jonnymac> is there any way of enabling it?
[02:42] <jatt> jonnymac: in xterm no
[02:42] <Cryoniq> Anyone know how I get my NEC dvd writer to burn faster than x2.4 in K3b.. after last update I cannot burn anything higher than that.. =(
[02:42] <jonnymac> xterm is what exactly?
[02:43] <USMarine> Cryoniq do the dvd support higher speeds?
[02:43] <USMarine> dvds*
[02:43] <cosmodad> can anyone using avidemux tell me if the navigation keys (2-8) to forward/reverse among frames work for him/her?
[02:43] <kitche> !info xterm | jonnymac
[02:43] <ubotu> jonnymac: xterm: X terminal emulator. In component main, is optional. Version 223-1 (feisty), package size 428 kB, installed size 1032 kB
[02:43] <Cryoniq> USMarine: It does. Used to burn x4 and x8 before.
[02:44] <jatt> :)
[02:44] <jonnymac> thank'ee kindly. i love ubotu. He's the 21st century equivalent of that all knowing boffin Ibid.
[02:44] <Cryoniq> I did hdparm /dev/dvdrw and it told me.. HDIO_GETGEO failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[02:45] <Cryoniq> Seems like a DMA problem. It has the latest firmware update as well.
[02:46] <Cryoniq> However I can burn at higher speed in gnome baker still.
[02:46] <ben> My network settings and ifconfig tell me my network address is 192.168.2.221, while my router interface tells me it's 192.168.2.4 - which one's right? I've got a feeling the static IP I set up in ubuntu is being ignored by the router, which is assigning me a new one anyway

[02:54] <dWho> hi can anyone help me with my problem about internet sharing in feisty with another feisty...
[02:54] <ikonia> iarwain its "quite" stable is not without risk. Its prudent to mention the risk to people using it
[02:54] <OuT> is ntfs 3g free download in ubuntu system?
[02:54] <iarwain> OuT: jup

[02:59] <pir> lots of q's here :P
[02:59] <ikonia> dWho ok - so have you turned on ip_forward on feisty one ?
[02:59] <iarwain> pir: xpdf worked well for me :)
[03:00] <ikonia> secher sorry what doesn't ?
[03:00] <dWho> ikonia : I'm using dhcp3 which is recommended in feisty
[03:00] <dWho> ikonia : where do I do that?
[03:00] <pir> iarwain: tnx ;) ill give it a shot ;)
[03:00] <IdleOne> pir lots of a's also
[03:00] <secher> ikonia, been inside every menu and sub menu, nowhere can i find anything about virtualization.. but i know core2's support it..
[03:00] <vcool> pdf = evince
[03:00] <ikonia> dWho dhcp is just a dhcp server - nothing to do with ipforwarding. firestarter is just an manipulation tool for iptables, so you need to setup iptales
[03:00] <nasser> I want best way to install new ATI driver 4.41.7 on Ubuntu!
[03:00] <jrib> secher: you sure you need to turn something on?
[03:00] <ikonia> secher not all core2's do
[03:01] <pir> IdleOne: yeah ;)
[03:01] <iarwain> nasser: search the wiki for installing ATI then ;)

[03:01] <ikonia> !ati > nasser

[03:01] <secher> jrib, yes i get googled the error i get from KVM, and it says that i need to turn it on for the processor
[03:01] <ikonia> brandon_ install and configure apache is the easy way
[03:01] <nanonyme> OuT, how about using screen?
[03:01] <jrib> secher: can you pastebin the error?
[03:01] <IdleOne> !lamp | brandon_
[03:01] <ubotu> brandon_: 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+)
[03:01] <dWho> ikonia : where do i enable ip forwarding .... i though ubuntu has builtin iptables.. right
[03:02] <nasser>  iarwain > I read the wiki, but after rebooting system, Ii hang on white screen
[03:02] <linux4me> brandon_ - ubuntu fiesty 7.04 can give you almost automated setup of a lamp box in about 15-20 mins!
[03:02] <ikonia> dWho it does have built in iptables but no rules are setup, thats what you do or do with firestarted. /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward is the parameter
[03:02] <IdleOne> dWho: use !firestarter
[03:02] <nanonyme> OuT, you could always do exec screen when you login on ssh. then if you lock screen, it actually locks the whole ssh connection
[03:03] <linux4me> brandon_ - just burn a cd from the .iso image and boot with it.  it is quite easy
[03:03] <secher> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38543/
[03:03] <dWho> idleOne : where? and what parameters are needed?
[03:03] <rausb0> nanonyme: i think he wants to crack the password of a ssh session
[03:03] <nanonyme> ah
[03:03] <monkeyBox> Is there a site where I can download hi-res usplash screens?
[03:03] <nanonyme> rausb0, i'd just count that insane
[03:03] <IdleOne> dWho: install firestarter as for parameters I dont know. ikonia might be more help
[03:04] <rausb0> nanonyme: :)
[03:04] <Rageon> if there a built in keyboard shortcut for switching between desktops? (i know i can assign one) but like one to scroll thru them all not just "Switch to Desktop 2"
[03:04] <nanonyme> rausb0, a friend said it's crackable if you listen to the traffic long enough but i seriously doubt it's crackable in any sensible amount of time
[03:04] <vcool> Rageon: alt + left/right
[03:04] <dWho> IdleOne , ikonia : firestarter is installed... internet sharing is enabled, dhcp3 is running...but feisty2 doesn't have internet...
[03:04] <Cryoniq> phew.. hardware manufacturers really need to start add drivers and support for Linux.. it is about time 1-2 year ago..
[03:04] <rausb0> nanonyme: i think only ssh protocol version 1 is vulnerable
[03:04] <nanonyme> OuT, use public messages
[03:05] <Rageon> cool thx
[03:05] <ikonia> dWho have you enabled ip_forwarding like I said ?
[03:05] <Cryoniq> more support etc that is..
[03:05] <Rageon> doesnt work vcool] 
[03:05] <dWho> IdleOne , ikonia : where do i enable ipforwarding what are the parameters needed?
[03:05] <rausb0> nanonyme: and hopefully no one uses ssh proto v1 anymore
[03:05] <nanonyme> rausb0, everything has vulnerabilities. the guy i talked to studies computer science so he probably knowns what he was talking about
[03:05] <ikonia> dWho I've just told you the exact place
[03:05] <ikonia> dWho then you need to setup masqurading or nat rules within iptables
[03:05] <IdleOne> Cryoniq: write letters to the manufacturers you buy from and ask them to support linux
[03:06] <cosmodad> can anyone using avidemux tell me if the navigation keys (2-8) to forward/reverse among frames work for him/her?
[03:06] <dWho> ikonia : omg.. lots of config to do... i'm noob at this stuff
[03:06] <rausb0> nanonyme: was he referring to ssh interactive password auth or ssh public key auth?
[03:06] <nanonyme> rausb0, interactive password auth, probably
[03:06] <ikonia> yes, lots of config, it is not straight forward to do safley
[03:06] <jrib> secher: hmm, you're probably right then.  What processor?  Does this command return anything: egrep '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo
[03:06] <dWho> ikonia : can I setup ip forwarding in firestarter?
[03:07] <rausb0> nanonyme: i switched to public key auth only recently
[03:07] <OuT> is somebody here who whant to talk about hacking stuff ;)
[03:07] <dWho> ikonia : i've tried "cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward " and the result is "1"
[03:07] <secher> anyway shouldnt it be possible to run virtual machines on any CPU??
[03:07] <rausb0> OuT: no support for cracker-wannabes here
[03:08] <OuT> jo jo
[03:08] <ikonia> dWho ok - so its enabled
[03:08] <ikonia> dWho thats a good start
[03:08] <OuT> i dont what to damage other people
[03:08] <OuT> !
[03:08] <ikonia> dWho now whats your forwarding/masq/nat rule
[03:08] <ikonia> !enter > OuT
[03:08] <Rageon> he wants to crack his own pc!
[03:08] <secher> jrib, no it doesnt
[03:08] <dWho> ikonia : i have no idea
[03:09] <jrib> secher: and the processor?
[03:09] <brandon_> does gyachi still work with the new yahoo changes?
[03:09] <secher> t5250 core 2 duo
[03:09] <Rageon> how do i make a linux distro for cats?
[03:09] <secher> jrib, t5250 core 2 duo
[03:09] <dWho> ikonia : how do I do that?
[03:10] <BleedingMoon> 6
[03:10] <Rageon> do i need a online shell to host a channel on freenode?
[03:10] <brandon_> how can i make gyachi work with new yahoo rooms?
[03:10] <rausb0> Rageon: you mean multiple mice support? :)
[03:11] <mjrclark> secher; yes you can do virtualisation on any cpu,  eg a 1.2ghz pentium m worked using qemu, but it can be very slow.
[03:11] <jrib> secher: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_virtualization claims the processor doesn't support it
[03:11] <OuT> hahahahaha
[03:11] <OuT> i know
[03:11] <OuT> u think i am a kidddy who what do know about hacking
[03:11] <roadfish> any use the DigiPro tablet on Ubuntu? Or tablets in general ... are there drivers for these things?
[03:12] <kitche> mjrclark, wrong virtualisation that's software virtualisation he's trying to do it with the processors features some of it and others don't
[03:12] <OuT> i know many stuff about it but i dont know what step 1 step 2 step 3
[03:12] <Cryoniq> roadfish: DigiPro, what manufacturer is that?
[03:12] <OuT> i got many progs
[03:12] <Rageon> i know step 69, but yer i dont know any of the others either OuT
[03:12] <ikonia> OuT this is not a support channel for this sort of technical support. This is for ubuntu product support
[03:12] <OuT> t grinder ts grinder john the ripper cain und abel and more
[03:12] <secher> jrib, lol@dell then! Telling me i can run a virtual machine on an m1330 with basic specs, and sell me a processor on it that doesnt support it...
[03:12] <ikonia> !offtopic | OuT
[03:12] <ubotu> OuT: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

[03:13] <kitche> secher, you can still run a virutal machine just that it will have to be used in software
[03:13] <rausb0> OuT: i give you something to "hack":  ssh -p 10022 dsl@84.179.116.154
[03:13] <OuT> or guys tell me a chanel were i can talk to perople the help me

[03:23] <roadfish> Croppa: here's one URL that mentions DigiPro and Linux ... http://www.velvetcache.org/category/computers/software/linux/
[03:23] <mjrclark> secher; I think so, win98 worked fine - quick google should tell you.
[03:24] <Doomguy0505> Lol, there is actually an os called LUnix
[03:24] <Cryoniq> Ubuntu should set up a major hardware database one can search in and it tells at once if a hardware works and then review section where users can leave comments on functionality and quality :)
[03:24] <Kopfgeldjaeger> can i download files with downthemal, even if they are redirected (onlinetvrecoder)? the standard ff download manager works

[03:25] <roadfish> app on my machine would take pressure levels anyway
[03:25] <OuT> if i whant to write a programm there must be some basic syntax that the programm will run can u tell me a litle bit about u
[03:25] <ikonia> OuT: I will not discuss this with you and Python discussion is not for #ubuntu support
[03:25] <IdleOne> !coc > rageon
[03:25] <wanger> OuT: read a book, this is ubuntu support
[03:26] <OuT> yeah yeah
[03:26] <OuT> every one say read abook
[03:26] <davidw> Cryoniq, you can comment on stuff that *doesn't* work here: www.leenooks.com
[03:26] <OuT> i was reading 5 books
[03:26] <Rageon> im german? :s
[03:26] <OuT> me 2
[03:26] <OuT> :)
[03:26] <IdleOne> OuT:  there are many many tutorials online that can help you with perl/python/ whatever it is you want to learn
[03:26] <Cryoniq> davidw: oh nice :)
[03:26] <OuT> yeah but this tutorials are nood good
[03:26] <wanger> OuT: that might be too many, perhaps try one at a time
[03:27] <IdleOne> Rageon: being german does not make it ok for you to break the Ubutnu rules :)
[03:27] <roadfish> Cryoniq: here's one URL that mentions DigiPro and Linux ... http://www.velvetcache.org/category/computers/software/linux/ ... (sorry, I sent to wrong person before)
[03:27] <OuT> there stand type blabla but not where
[03:27] <Rageon> yea fair enough :)
[03:27] <OuT> or why blabla and not why i cant write blebla
[03:27] <OuT> i am a germen with bat english
[03:27] <jrib> OuT: read diveintopython.org and the tutorial at docs.python.org .  Your question is better asked in #python
[03:27] <rausb0> OuT: we noticed that
[03:27] <nalioth> OuT: there are dozens of channels here on freenode that are better suited to answering your questions than this one
[03:28] <roadfish> Croppa: webpage says work on GIMP and then don't know about the "512 Pressure Levels", since I'm not sure what app on my machine would take pressure levels anyway
[03:28] <IdleOne> Rageon: you seem to be a good guy read !coc and sign if you can/ want to
[03:28] <OuT> ok thx
[03:28] <Rageon> cool will do mate

[03:29] <roadfish> tsk, I keep sending to the wrong person
[03:30] <Cryoniq> roadfish: I was thinking using it with gimp and 3d modelling apps and some more :)
[03:30] <IdleOne> Rageon: ubuntu is more then just an OS .... the CoC explains some of it
[03:32] <roadfish> Cryoniq: this project semes relevant ... http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net
[03:32] <roadfish> (I search for "linux tablet" but get all this Tablet PC stuff)
[03:32] <Cryoniq> roadfish: aye.. wacom has good support it seems. Their new bamboo serie work as well
[03:33] <Cryoniq> roadfish: so I am really thinking a A6 or A5 Bamboo.. but they are so expensive.. =(
[03:33] <ikonia> hmhowie: check the hardware is enough
[03:33] <Cryoniq> and I am cheap...
[03:33] <Cryoniq> ;P
[03:33] <hmhowie> ikonia: don't worry, it won't be :) i'm putting a server install on a pentium MMX from 1997 :) let's see how far it gets...
[03:33] <Rageon> yea i agree with everything on that page, not trying to disrupt the channel just adding a giggle in between queries for anyone with a random sense of comedy, but i get over excited sometimes (like when u kicked me:) which was fair enough :))
[03:34] <_imran_> when i try to pen a .exe file using wine, i get this message: The filename "Rugby08.exe" indicates that this file is of type "executable". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "DOS/Windows executable". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system.
[03:34] <_imran_> Do not open the file unless you created the file yourself, or received the file from a trusted source. To open the file, rename the file to the correct extension for "DOS/Windows executable", then open the file normally. Alternatively, use the Open With menu to choose a specific application for the file.
[03:34] <roadfish> Cryoniq: unfortunatley, DigiPro is not listed in their supported devices
[03:34] <Rageon> and learn at the same time!
[03:34] <Cryoniq> roadfish: ><
[03:36] <c01100011> grub / hardware / ubuntu / windows question - mind if i ask here or should i try offtopic ?

[03:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask c01100011 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:37] <Tomcat_> !ask | c01100011
[03:37] <ubotu> c01100011: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:37] <Tomcat_> c01100011: We'll tell you if it's off topic when you asked ;)

Alternatively, use the Open With menu to choose a specific application for the file.
 I right clicked the file, properties, open with tab and added "wine" as a custom command then it ran on double clicking, (if it is named as .exe)
[03:38] <_imran_> mjrclark, i tried that and i get no response from my computer
[03:38] <IdleOne> _imran_: you can probably use dosbox or dosemu to open that file
[03:39] <JohnFlux> Hey all
[03:39] <IdleOne> !hi | JohnFlux
[03:39] <ubotu> JohnFlux: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:39] <DjViper> IdleOne: lazy :P
[03:40] <mjrclark> in XChat can I turn off/block the user joins/leaves messages?
[03:40] <c01100011> On laptop (thinkpad t60p) after selecting an OS in grub, the OS (regardless of if it's windows or linux) freezes 4 to 5 seconds into it's boot up. After retrying a couple of times it usually works. (some things that seem to help, but may just be flukes, are pulling the ac adaptor and usb connections, trying safemode for windows, or just yelling at it)
[03:40] <IdleOne> DjViper: with one line myself and the bot said Hi that is not lazy it is resourceful :P
[03:40] <wastrel> mjrclark: right-click the channel tab
[03:40] <baro> hello, who can point me to a document/tutorial explaining how to upgrade a ubuntu package version.X to version.Y so I can build it myself  ?
[03:40] <dgjones> mjrclark, you should be able to right click on the channel name
[03:40] <IdleOne> mjrclark: in the prefs you can
[03:40] <NotSure> anybody, how do I install Ubuntu source?
[03:40] <ikonia> c01100011: disk corruption/fragmentation
[03:40] <ikonia> NotSure: which source ?
[03:41] <wastrel> !compile
[03:41] <NotSure> ubuntu kernel
[03:41] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[03:41] <ikonia> NotSure get it from the repos using synaptic or apt-get
[03:41] <c01100011> ikonia, ran a disk check and mem test
[03:41] <mjrclark> thanks, kicking myself for missing that bit, was sure I had checked everywhere.
[03:41] <NotSure> synaptic and then what?
[03:41] <NotSure> no let's use apt-get
[03:41] <Cryoniq> hmm.. since the dollar dropped so much compared to my country's currency.. ebay looks really sweet on the hardware market now.. :P
[03:41] <Zambezi> I'm really sorry for this offtopic question, but I desperate. Anyone speaks Spanish? I need help with a translation.
[03:41] <ikonia> NotSure use apt-get then
[03:42] <baro> thx wastrel
[03:42] <IdleOne> Zambezi: #ubuntu-offtopic I might be able to help also #linguistics
[03:42] <NotSure> so, it is sudo apt-get source ubuntu-desktop
[03:42] <JohnFlux> I'm having a lot of trouble installing nvidia drivers.  I'm having to use an older kernel (2.6.20-15), but everything i try I get the error of mismatch versions from startx.  It complains that the kernel version and driver version are different
[03:42] <ikonia> NotSure no - thats the desktop, not the kernel
[03:42] <Zambezi> IdleOne, I asked there, but I'm really impatient now.
[03:42] <NotSure> ok so how to get kernel source?
[03:42] <ikonia> JohnFlux did you install the drivers from nvida.com or from the nvidia-glx ubuntu package ?
[03:43] <genii> NotSure: That will gfetch the sources for the meta package of ubuntu-desktop, but not the kernel itself as ikonia pointed out
[03:43] <genii> *fetch
[03:43] <ikonia> NotSure: apt-cache search kernel
[03:43] <JohnFlux> ikonia: I've tried the nvidia-glx ubuntu package so far
[03:43] <NotSure> search? why search? i want to install it, i mean get it in /usr/src
[03:43] <JohnFlux> ikonia: doing  apt-cache policy nvidia-glx   it says that it's for the kernel version 2.6.22
[03:43] <ikonia> JohnFlux then it should be impossible to get driver miss-match
[03:43] <Rageon> search for it then install it..
[03:43] <paradizelost> hey all, i'm trying to install 6.06 server on a proliant ml350g5, and i press "english" "US English" and it just sits there
[03:43] <ikonia> NotSure you search for the kernel source, then install the kernel source
[03:44] <paradizelost> any ideas?
[03:44] <ikonia> JohnFlux .22 is gusty
[03:44] <NotSure> all right, hang in
[03:44] <JohnFlux> ikonia: i'm on gutsy :-D
[03:44] <dystopianray> !gutsy | JohnFlux
[03:44] <ubotu> JohnFlux: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[03:44] <ikonia> JohnFlux then you should expect breakages and be in #ubuntu+1
[03:44] <JohnFlux> okay sorry for wasting your time :)
[03:44] <ikonia> no problem mistakes happen
[03:45] <Rageon> john woulda been in trouble if ikonia wanted his 5 minutes back :0
[03:46] <paradizelost> hey all, i'm trying to install 6.06 server on a proliant ml350g5, and i press "english" "US English" and it just sits there
[03:46] <OuT> ssh cia.gov ahahahha ;)
[03:46] <ikonia> OuT: you've been warned about this
[03:46] <rausb0> funny.
[03:47] <hmhowie> !offtopic
[03:47] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:47] <Rageon> im watching reloaded got my matrix screensavers setup pretty sure im a hacker ;D
[03:47] <rausb0> ikonia: the OuT guy was already on german ubuntu channel yesterday. he probably got kicked there for the same reasons.
[03:48] <aguitel> anyone use 64 bits system?
[03:48] <hmhowie> me! me! me! aguitel :)
[03:48] <ikonia> aguitel yes
[03:48] <Rageon> nope your the only one
[03:48] <MtJB> is there a good howto on setting up wireless on 7.04 when you don't have any wired connectivity?
[03:48] <Rageon> :)
[03:48] <davidw> MtJB, carrier pigeons
[03:48] <MtJB> davidw:  whats the rfc?
[03:48] <dystopianray> aguitel: what is your question?
[03:49] <aguitel> ikonia ,i want to buy amd athlom 300 ,how is ubuntu in 64 bits ?
[03:49] <kkathman> when you move an email from your inbox to a folder, why does evolution put a copy of that message in the Trash also?
[03:49] <philipe_> how can i write in ntfs partition?
[03:49] <przemek_> czy ktos mowi po polsku?
[03:49] <paradizelost> kkathman: it copies then deletes the original
[03:49] <aguitel> the question is how is ubuntu in 64 bits
[03:49] <davidw> aguitel, you can't use lots of common non-free software like flash
[03:50] <MtJB> is there a good howto on setting up wireless on 7.04 when you don't have any wired connectivity?
[03:50] <ikonia> aguitel: sorry, I missed you question
[03:50] <dystopianray> MtJB: RFC 1149
[03:50] <dystopianray> MtJB: what wifi chip do you have?
[03:50] <hmhowie> aguitel: mostly very good. you'll have difficulties with some non-free software, like realplayer and flash. but all the free software packages i can think of are also released for 64bit
[03:50] <techlife> I'm trying to setup a photosmart 7350 in ubuntu feisty and it's printing only blank pages, but when I perform a test page it prints fine. Any suggestions?
[03:50] <kkathman> paradizelost:  hmmm questionable design, I dont think thats done in any other mail software I've seen - is this a bug?
[03:50] <MtJB> dystopianray, i dunno
[03:51] <dystopianray> MtJB: if it's a pci card run lspci to see what it is
[03:51] <aguitel> hmhowie ,is there diference realy in the speed with 32 bits ?
[03:51] <davidw> I bought my wife a 64 bit machine and it was a mistake, as far as I'm concerned... she only notices that 'linux doesn't do flash/skype/etc' on it
[03:51] <ikonia> aguitel not for most peoples
[03:52] <dystopianray> aguitel: it'll more likely be slower
[03:52] <aguitel> ikonia,do you know why ?
[03:52] <dystopianray> aguitel: use 32-bit ubuntu unless you have a very good reason to do otherwise
[03:52] <erUSUL> davidw: you can install 32bit ubuntu on a 64bit processor just fine
[03:52] <dystopianray> aguitel: the diffeernce is not enough for most people to notice
[03:52] <dystopianray> davidw: just use 32-bit ubuntu
[03:52] <davidw> erUSUL, yeah, only now the deed is done...
[03:53] <davidw> she has a bunch of stuff on it
[03:53] <ikonia> aguitel because most people don't use software that will benifit from the additional power
[03:53] <albertito> hi! I was wondering what was the difference between "automatically kept back" and "kept back" (I (think I) know what kept back means, but I don't know the difference between those two)
[03:53] <tsis> buenas
[03:53] <Rageon> did it take as long for the 16-32bit change to give decent support?
[03:53] <dystopianray> Rageon: there was no 16-bit linux
[03:54] <ikonia> Rageon: years for windows
[03:54] <Rageon> i know.. general computer question that one
[03:54] <Rageon> ahh k
[03:54] <hmhowie> aguitel: depends what you're doing. the short answer is: yes :)
[03:54] <cdavis> where can I change the master password on the manager that stores things like wireless wep keys?
[03:55] <easyfrag> ubuntu-es
[03:56] <aguitel> hmhowie ,i think 64 bits double speed for 32 bits
[03:56] <Chousuke> aguitel: what?
[03:56] <dystopianray> aguitel: no that is completely wrong
[03:57] <Chousuke> aguitel: 64-bit is actually often slower than 32-bit
[03:57] <dystopianray> aguitel: Chousuke is right 64-bit is often slower
[03:58] <Chousuke> unless you have loads of RAM that is
[03:58] <dino_> hello, need help getting my Logitech MX1000 mouse to work! my logitech dinovo edge keyboard works out of the box! help

[04:00] <ikonia> genii nice find !
[04:00] <Rageon> i have 2 desktops on 2 different screens.. any help me find out how to make desktop1onDisplay2 become desktop3onDisplay1 and so forth?
[04:00] <hmhowie> aguitel: 64bit is faster if you're planning on loading and working with 64bit datatypes. that's where i notice the difference
[04:00] <genii> ikonia: :)
[04:00] <dino_> genii: i've tried that one over 20 times, the problem aint to get the mouse buttons to work, but to get the mx1000 to work
[04:00] <J-23> !ntfs-3g

[04:01] <Tasmaniac> In my endeavours to get ubuntu to talk nicely with win ads I've screwed up the pam.d config files and can no longer login at all. How can I fix this (besides reinstalling)
[04:01] <ikonia> Tasmaniac: restore the backups you made before messing around
[04:01] <aguitel> hmhowie ,if i planning to surf the net only with 64 bits software from repositories?
[04:01] <ikonia> aguitel: use 32bit
[04:01] <dystopianray> aguitel: just use 32-bit ubuntu
[04:01] <genii> dino_: Please do: lsmod|grep evdev    and tell if the module "evdev" appears
[04:02] <Tasmaniac> ikoniaonia if I could get at the pam.d backups I'd be able to log in :)
[04:02] <blubb> how can I tell thunderbird to use my firefox when I click on a link and not konqueror?
[04:02] <rausb0> aguitel: still you will get problems with flash and such
[04:02] <dystopianray> Tasmaniac: boot a livecd and chroot in
[04:02] <davidw> what happened to the httpasswd stuff in the latest ubuntu
[04:02] <nightfreak> can i use the dotdeb packages with dapper?
[04:02] <hmhowie> aguitel: there's no need to use a 64-bit operating system for surfing the net. if however, you were planning on using octave or matlab or similar, i'd recommend a 64-bit operating system and 64-bit versions of the software
[04:02] <rausb0> aguitel: so it's really better to use the 32bit version
[04:02] <dino_> genii: evdev 11008 6
[04:02] <Rageon> time for a nub question, is fluxbox a shell like GDE KDE? or something else?
[04:02] <Tasmaniac> dystopianray, ok the live cd bit I get the chroot bit ??
[04:02] <ikonia> Rageon its a mini linux install
[04:02] <ikonia> oops
[04:03] <ikonia> Rageon: do you mean blackbox ?
[04:03] <mssever> Rageon: It's a window manager like Metacity
[04:03] <dystopianray> Rageon: fluxbox is a window manager, like kwin (kde) or metacity (gnome)
[04:03] <rausb0> Rageon: fluxbox is a window manager. kde and gnome are desktop environment.s
[04:03] <jackfusio1> Hi all
[04:03] <ikonia> rausb0: no its not
[04:03] <hmhowie> Rageon: this can get quite confusing :)
[04:03] <ikonia> rausb0: oops
[04:03] <Rageon> lol
[04:03] <rausb0> ikonia: ?
[04:03] <genii> dino_: Do you have some other pointing devices installed?
[04:03] <ikonia> rausb0: sorry my bad typing
[04:03] <aguitel> i change the question , if i use amd 3000 athlom (64 bits) with ubuntu 32 bits software ,what is the diference with 32 bits and 64 bits ??
[04:03] <Tasmaniac> Ikonia I'd love to reinstall the backup pam.d conf files but no login
[04:03] <Rageon> yes i am talking about fluxbox not blackbox
[04:03] <rausb0> ikonia: alright
[04:03] <mssever> nightfreak: Dapper uses .deb packages
[04:03] <Rageon> the fluxbox thats on gnome-look.org
[04:03] <dystopianray> Tasmaniac: basically allos you to enter your ubuntu partition and run commands within it by chaning /
[04:04] <ikonia> Rageon: that is a desktop
[04:04] <dino_> genii: the one that is on the dinoVo Edge keyboard is the one im using now.... it worked out of the box
[04:04] <ikonia> Rageon for some reason I'm reading fluxbox as busybox
[04:04] <dystopianray> Tasmaniac: but if you only need to edit some files on the partition then you don't need chroot
[04:04] <ikonia> sorry
[04:04] <Rageon> no worries mate
[04:04] <Rageon> thx for the info all./
[04:04] <rausb0> Rageon: fluxbox on gnome-look.org is probably only a theme for gnome making it look like fluxbox
[04:04] <Rageon> ahh icic
[04:04] <dystopianray> aguitel: the difference is less compatiblity, slower speeds and other potential problems
[04:04] <dystopianray> aguitel: just use 32-bit ubuntu
[04:05] <kst> hey guys, i just had some kernel whatever update to something.16 from update notifications, and after reboot my feisty was acting up.. 2 restarts later it seems to be ok again.. anything special about that?
[04:05] <rausb0> Rageon: fluxbox itself is a fork of blackbox. both are window managers.
[04:05] <ikonia> kst define acting up
[04:05] <Rageon> is gnome-look.org where i should be to learn about customising my themes etc?
[04:05] <Rageon> ahh ok cool :)
[04:05] <dino_> genii: any ideas?
[04:05] <kst> ikonia first my resolution was screwed, i had to change to 800x600 and then back to 1280x800 to get it working properly
[04:06] <ikonia> kst sounds like your video drivers where updated
[04:06] <kst> after a reboot i got an error msg telling nautilus couldnt be loaded
[04:06] <mssever> Rageon: It has a lot of good examples, along with art.gnome.org
[04:06] <jackfusio1> I have found all the files in the lamp directory that have /opt/.  I would like to know how can I change every time /opt/ in the files to /media/IPOD/.  Any ones help would be great full.
[04:06] <kst> although it worked when i tried.. another reboot (i uninstalled some lirc package first tho) it worked again
[04:06] <Tasmaniac> dystopianray, yep basically I just need to redo the pam.d files (actually had it talking to the ads but then read 1 to many how-to) so basically boot live cd get a terminal then .. :)
[04:06] <ikonia> jackfusio1 lamp is not in /opt
[04:06] <genii> dino_: Since I do not have either of these, it is difficult to diagnose esily. But my best guess would bethe keyboard pointer is using also the event driver (evdev) and pre-empting the mouse
[04:06] <kst> ikonia i think it was more something like kernel sources (whatever that is), had the same name that shows up in the bootmanager when you start your comp
[04:06] <dystopianray> Tasmaniac: mount your ubuntu partition on /mnt and start editing
[04:07] <mssever> jackfusio1: Do you mean that you want to move everything in /opt to /media/IPOD?
[04:07] <wanger> aguitel: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit have a read if you're interested, but basically there's no real advantage of using a 64-bit system unless you're using more than 4GB of memory
[04:07] <dino_> genii: yep, that's what i thought too. but you got no clues on what to do? i installed ubuntu yesterday, so im very new to this
[04:07] <jackfusio1> when installing xampp it is.
[04:07] <ikonia> jackfusio1: xampp is not lamp
[04:07] <Rageon> i see screenshots of like simplafied desktops with fancy transparent panels in the forums under "post your desktop" yea just looking into how to add a few of those kind of things to my desktop
[04:07] <jackfusio1> I know
[04:07] <mssever> jackfusio1: On Linux, don't bother with XAMPP
[04:07] <J-23> beacuse XAMPP is LAMPP ;)
[04:08] <mssever> jackfusio1: sudo aptitude install apache2 mysql-server php5
[04:08] <wanger> Rageon: you might be looking at fluxbow with aterm, i'm sure you could get a similar thing using aterm in gnome
[04:09] <dystopianray> mssever: don't forget php5-mysql
[04:09] <mssever> jackfusio1: XAMPP is good for OSes that don't have an easy way to install everything you need for web development
[04:09] <mssever> dystopianray: Thanks for the reminder
[04:09] <Rageon> !aterm
[04:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about aterm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:09] <jackfusio1> I want to be able to work from my ipod on a windows machine and linux machine with out having to install anything on either machine.
[04:09] <wanger> Rageon: aterm is a terminal program with transparancy effects, so it looks quite nice if you remove the borders and everything
[04:09] <J-23> !konsole
[04:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about konsole - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:09] <J-23> !kde
[04:09] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE) . Latest KDE version is 3.5.7 for Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[04:09] <genii> dino_: There is a somewhat more involved howto here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=219894 which involves getting the system to recognise and create a device rule for it as well. this may be good if it isn't already being seen
[04:09] <wanger> !aterm > wanger
[04:10] <Tasmaniac> dystopianray, so do I just mkdir /mnt/somename then mount /dev/hdwhatever /mnt/somename? (I aint done this before)
[04:10] <dino_> thx alot genii, im gonna look into it
[04:10] <mssever> jackfusio1: XAMPP is web development software, not iPod software
[04:10] <dystopianray> Tasmaniac: if I remember correct /mnt should be empty so you can mount directly onto it
[04:10] <Rageon> wanger: does it have more features then the standard System > Windows program?
[04:10] <dystopianray> Tasmaniac: but basically what you said is correct
[04:10] <J-23> !yourself

[04:10] <jackfusio1> I treat my iod as a usb drive not an ipod
[04:10] <J-23> !help
[04:10] <blubb> How can I remove only the ghostscript packages but not the related cups and that stuff? I want to replace ghostscript with a newer version, because that one shipped with feisty has a bug.
[04:11] <wanger> Rageon: sorry i'm not sure what you mean, are you asking about fluxbox or aterm?
[04:11] <dawk> what's the channel for mint linux?
[04:11] <Rageon> aterm
[04:11] <genii> dino_: I hope it works for you
[04:11] <Tasmaniac> dystopianray, thanx I'll try it in about 6 hours once I get back to the comp in question
[04:11] <J-23> !jackfusio1: cp -r /opt /media/IPOD?
[04:11] <mssever> jackfusio1: So you're trying to have your XAMPP setup on your iPod and then run it from both Linux and Windows?
[04:11] <wanger> Rageon: it's just a terminal, doesn't have any fancy functionality as far as i'm aware
[04:11] <J-23> s/!// ;)
[04:12] <jackfusio1> yes
[04:12] <dawk> anyone know the channel for mint linux?
[04:12] <dystopianray> dawk: try google
[04:12] <wanger> Rageon: only difference is you can integrate it nicely onto your desktop and make it look pretty
[04:12] <Rageon> nar what im asking is like can i do anything in aterm that i cant do in System > Windows
[04:12] <Rageon> koz i can change transparency/window borders in there
[04:12] <jackfusio1> 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.
[04:13] <Pici> dawk: #linuxmint seems to be active
[04:13] <Rageon> System > Prefs > Windows sorry.
[04:13] <Dagmar> Alright... what's the magic secret to coercing NetworkManager 0.6.5 to compile with Gnome 2.20
[04:13] <mssever> jackfusio1: Windows and Linux use incompatible executable formats, so you'll have to install XAMPP twice on your iPod; once for Win and once for Linux
[04:13] <Dagmar> I googled the errors about the druid code that spew out and all I find is three pastebins that lead to here
[04:13] <mssever> jackfusio1: But you could set the DocumentRoot to your iPod
[04:14] <blubb> How can I remove only the ghostscript packages but not the related cups and that stuff? I want to replace ghostscript with a newer version, because that one shipped with feisty has a bug.
[04:14] <jackfusio1> I know but the linux version wants you to install it in /opt/
[04:14] <mssever> jackfusio1: And it doesn't give you an option to install it somewhere else?
[04:14] <wanger> Rageon: i'm sorry i'm not in gnome at the moment, can't check, but i don't think you can give windows transparency effects in gnome
[04:15] <jackfusio1> mssever: nope
[04:15] <Rageon> yea you can mate :)
[04:15] <ruben> que pecs ?
[04:15] <jackfusio1> you unzip and run
[04:15] <dystopianray> jackfusio1: so unzip to your ipod
[04:15] <Rageon> actually ure right u cant
[04:15] <Rageon> my mistake
[04:15] <mssever> jackfusio1: You can try moving the XAMPP directory to your iPod, but there's no guarantee that it will work
[04:15] <Rageon> will check it out, cheers wanger :)
[04:15] <ruben> Hey everybody
[04:16] <blue|palm> how do I know If my modem is supported in linux? i have used lspci and it says: Smart link ltd. Unkown device 8800 (rev 02)
[04:16] <wanger> Rageon: oh ok, you can do it in compiz-fusion obviously, check that out if that's more what you're after
[04:16] <mssever> jackfusio1: It depends on how XAMPP was compiled
[04:16] <ubuntu__> hi, i'm using partedmagic tool, but when i login into partedmagic, i'm unable to use my mouse.

[04:16] <ubotu> blue|palm: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[04:16] <Rageon> is compiz fusion different then dektop effects?
[04:16] <Rageon> desktop8
[04:16] <Rageon> desktop*!
[04:16] <erUSUL> blue|palm: do 'sudo update-pciids'
[04:16] <dystopianray> Rageon: desktop effects uses compiz
[04:16] <riotkittie> Rageon: yes
[04:17] <tomprod> lu ya des francais ?
[04:17] <blue|palm> erUSUL, I dont have internet
[04:17] <Rageon> but does compiz fusion have more features or its the same thing?
[04:17] <wanger> Rageon: compiz-fusion is a window manager that provides "desktop effects"
[04:17] <ubuntu__> hi, i'm using partedmagic tool, but when i login into partedmagic, i'm unable to use my mouse.
[04:17] <mssever> !fr | tomprod
[04:17] <ubotu> tomprod: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[04:17] <dystopianray> Rageon: it has more features
[04:17] <Rageon> ahh ok cool
[04:17] <riotkittie> Rageon: more features, more functionality and control
[04:17] <blue|palm> erUSUL, on that pc...
[04:17] <Lhademmor> Okay, I've decided to remove Windows XP completely from my system... I've backed up everything important and now I would like to delete the Windows-NTFS-partition and add the new free space to my ubuntu partition - how do I do that without having to install Ubuntu over again?
[04:17] <riotkittie> also not easy to set up.
[04:17] <Rageon> and its more stable then beryl correct?
[04:17] <jackfusio1> it dose not work because xampp looks in /opt/.  that is why I would like to change any instance of /opt/ to /media/IPOD.
[04:17] <Rageon> oh..
[04:17] <dystopianray> Rageon: look at the videos on youtube if you want to see what it can do
[04:17] <ubuntu__> Lhademmor, try wubi
[04:17] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: use gparted
[04:18] <mssever> Lhademmor: Use gparted
[04:18] <riotkittie> yea, gparted
[04:18] <tomprod> #ubuntu-fr
[04:18] <Rageon> once its setup is it easy to disable enable on demand?
[04:18] <ubuntu__> Lhademmor, http://www.wubi-installer.org/ , it is unofficial though
[04:18] <dystopianray> ubuntu__: wubi is not at all what he wants
[04:18] <ubuntu__> dystopianray, okay
[04:18] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: don't use wubi
[04:18] <riotkittie> yea. isnt wubi like... a windows installer?
[04:18] <erUSUL> blue|palm: then just read the how to i pointed out...
[04:18] <mssever> ubuntu__, Lhademmor Wubi is an installer for WITHIN windows, not for if you want to DELETE Windows
[04:19] <easyfrag> Pues no ha funcionado
[04:19] <blue|palm> erUSUL, thanks Im doing that now
[04:19] <ubuntu__> mssever, yeah. thats right. :-)
[04:19] <Lhademmor> dystopianray, GParted says its not capable of shrinking, deleting or doing anything to NTFS-partitions..?
[04:19] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: just use gparted it should be real easy, delete the windows partition then move/resize the ubuntu partition into the space it occupied, do it from a livecd though
[04:19] <ubuntu__> hi, can someone help me out. i am trying to partition using partedmagic. but mouse is not working.
[04:19] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: it can delete any partition independantly of the filesystem
[04:19] <Dagmar> Hmm... time to hop back off the short bus
[04:20] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: or do it manually if it's being stupid
[04:20] <riotkittie> Lhademmor: that's amazing as I have used gparted to delete NTFS partitions, i am sure. :P
[04:20] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: do these operations from the livecd though
[04:20] <ikonia> ubuntu__ partedmagic or partition magic
[04:20] <riotkittie> is the XP partiton mounted?
[04:20] <mssever> Lhademmor: Look for the GParted live CD. It's easier that way
[04:20] <ubuntu__> ikonia, but i have installed it using wubi :(
[04:20] <riotkittie> Partition Magic is the root of all evil :o
[04:20] <Rageon> wagger the GDM Themes on Gnome-Look all have preview pictures of the login screen.. im sure im in (themes) will these themes only change my logon screen?
[04:20] <genii> riotkittie: It IS a windows installer, can mess up your box very badly
[04:20] <riotkittie> Gparted live CD is awesome
[04:20] <Lhademmor> dystopianray, unfortunately I don't have any free CD's right here atm...
[04:21] <jackfusio1> how would I change any instance of /opt/ to /media/IPOD/ in all the files of lampp without having to open each file and doing it that way?
[04:21] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: do you not have the ubuntu cd on hand at all?
[04:21] <AronRaavHex> what''s the comman for locating where an application is installed?
[04:21] <dystopianray> AronRaavHex: whereis
[04:21] <wanger> Rageon: they should include a gtk theme, which will change the appearance of your windows and icons and such
[04:21] <Rageon> ok sweet
[04:21] <Rageon> thx again mate
[04:21] <riotkittie> genii: thought as much. i've heard of it, but i'm not familiar with it.
[04:21] <AronRaavHex> dystopianray: thanks
[04:22] <wanger> Rageon: np man
[04:22] <Lhademmor> dystopianray... ehh.. no I forgot it at home when I moved to college-like-thing where I am now... But I'll try to get hold of some free CD's soon... I gotta have Gutsy when it comes out of beta :)
[04:22] <mssever> jackfusio1: If you mean *move* one to the other, do sudo mv /opt/* /media/IPOD    But that's not necessarily recommended
[04:22] <erUSUL> AronRaavHex: dpkg -L package ?  locate binaryname ? which binaryname ?
[04:22] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: you'll need a livecd to resize your ubuntu partition
[04:22] <mssever> jackfusio1: Better to move *just* the XAMPP directory
[04:23] <Rageon> lol whoever told me to check the youtube links for compiz fusion.. u knew once i saw it i would have to have it! lol freekn awesome!
[04:23] <Lhademmor> dystopianray, k - then I'll go shopping in the morning
[04:23] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: you can't get a cd off someone else?
[04:24] <jackfusio1> it will not that way because xampp looks in /opt/ when I want it to look in /media/ipod  instaed.
[04:24] <Rageon> hope its compat with nvidia dual screens
[04:25] <mssever> jackfusio1: So you'll need to hunt through your XAMPP config files and update the references manually; I suggest you start with your Apache config files
[04:25] <crsposftp> I am using proftpd ftp server and will work when the firewall is stopped however will not connect when firewall is started http://crs-usa.serveftp.com/crs-usa/firewall.bash.txt
[04:25] <dystopianray> mssever: sed can update them all
[04:25] <fevel> is it possible to install ntfs-3g on feisty 64 bits?
[04:25] <crsposftp> http://crs-usa.serveftp.com/crs-usa/firewall.bash.txt
[04:25] <dystopianray> jackfusio1: you can use sed to update it all
[04:25] <dystopianray> fevel: yes
[04:26] <Lhademmor> dystopianray - nobody here has seen the light yet :(
[04:26] <jackfusio1> is there a faster way I have found all the files
[04:26] <fevel> dystopianray: can you give me a link?
[04:26] <Lhademmor> oh, and not blank cd's either methinks
[04:26] <jackfusio1> how would I use sed?
[04:26] <dystopianray> !ntfs-3g | fevel
[04:26] <ubotu> fevel: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:27] <mssever> jackfusio1: info sed is the best that I can suggest at the moment--I'd have to look that up
[04:27] <dystopianray> jackfusio1: sed -i -e "s/\/opt/\/media\/IPOD/g" blah
[04:27] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: nobody has a blank cd you can have?
[04:28] <jackfusio1> I get char errors when doing that?
[04:28] <dystopianray> jackfusio1: pastebin the error
[04:28] <Lhademmor> dystopianray, dunno, I'll ask around
[04:29] <jackfusio1> ok
[04:29] <dystopianray> Lhademmor: if you have a removeable usb drive you could use that to make a bootable gparted liveusb, only need 50MB
[04:29] <jackfusio1> gtg thank you for your help
[04:29] <Rageon> ive got a logitech dual optical.. not a fancy mouse 4 button.. with a scroll wheel.. anyone tell me how i can make my THUMB button = delete on my keyboard?

[04:32] <blubb> can anyone help me installing latest ghostscript-esp by hand? I'm now compiling the package, but what now? How can I get it into apt? Because I can't uninstall just the gs-esp version from kubuntu.
[04:32] <darkchr0n0s> hi, i installed the latest kernel using the python file, so my kernel is now 2.6.22.12-generic
[04:33] <darkchr0n0s> the problem is update manager is showing upgrades like "linux-headers-2.6.20-12" and similar upgrades
[04:33] <darkchr0n0s> should i install those updates or not ?
[04:34] <darkchr0n0s> anyone. ?
[04:34] <darkchr0n0s> no-one ?
[04:34] <ZeroA4> darkchr0n0s, why not?
[04:34] <erUSUL> darkchr0n0s: why not?
[04:34] <ZeroA4> erUSUL, :)
[04:34] <darkchr0n0s> Zenton, erUSUL the version's are different
[04:34] <darkchr0n0s> Zenton, erUSUL the kernel versions
[04:34] <stefg> darkchr0n0s: if you can't answer that question yourself you probably shouldn't running an unsupported kernel
[04:35] <dystopianray> darkchr0n0s: why did you install an unsupported kernel version?
[04:35] <user_> hello
[04:35] <erUSUL> darkchr0n0s: the first question is what kind of script you used to "update" your kernel?
[04:35] <darkchr0n0s> stefg, dystopianray i couldn't reduce the brightnes of my LCD in old versions
[04:35] <ikonia> scripted kernel update = broke machine
[04:35] <darkchr0n0s> and the Fn keys won't work
[04:36] <ikonia> thats xorg - not the kernel
[04:36] <ikonia> more often that not, anyway
[04:36] <darkchr0n0s> xorg ?
[04:36] <ikonia> yes, the x-windows system
[04:36] <dystopianray> darkchr0n0s: you may want to consider using gutsy
[04:37] <blubb> can anyone help me installing latest ghostscript-esp by hand? I'm now compiling the package, but what now? How can I get it into apt? Because I can't uninstall just the gs-esp version from kubuntu.
[04:37] <darkchr0n0s> dystopianray, i'll install that once it's out
[04:37] <ikonia> blubb why are you not using the version in the uuntu repo
[04:37] <erUSUL> darkchr0n0s: the updated packages shouldn't mess the newer kernel
[04:37] <darkchr0n0s> erUSUL, this is the script i used http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3136258#post3136258
[04:38] <Tannu> hello all
[04:38] <Tannu> how i can maka my ubuntu boot faster
[04:39] <ikonia> Tannu depends what you think is fast and your current configuration
[04:39] <ikonia> Tannu how fast does it boot now ?
[04:39] <erUSUL> darkchr0n0s: all it does is to put a gutsy repo update kernel and associated packages and then remove the repo...
[04:39] <crsposftp> iptable help http://crs-usa.serveftp.com/crs-usa/firewall.bash.txt    proftpd server port 21 will not allow connect when firewall is on
[04:39] <ikonia> erUSUL what script does that ?
[04:39] <Tannu> slow
[04:39] <darkchr0n0s> erUSUL, that's all i did
[04:39] <Tannu> too slow
[04:39] <KyleS-work> could be your hardware
[04:39] <ikonia> Tannu come on, if you want help, be reasonable. Define slow
[04:40] <blubb> how can list all the files installed by a package?
[04:40] <KyleS-work> 35 seconds! SHOULD BE 30~
[04:40] <Tannu> my computer startsup 1min
[04:40] <KyleS-work> lol
[04:40] <darkchr0n0s> erUSUL, the output of "uname -r" is 2.6.22.12-generic
[04:40] <ikonia> Tannu ok so about 60 seconds.
[04:40] <KyleS-work> 60 seconds isn't bad actually
[04:40] <dystopianray> Tannu: that sounds normal
[04:40] <blubb> ikonia because that package has a bug
[04:40] <erUSUL> ikonia: the one darkchr0n0s used to update the kernel to gutsy one (or so they claim in the ubuntu forums threath)
[04:40] <Tannu> normal
[04:40] <KyleS-work> it's still faster than windoze
[04:41] <ikonia> erUSUL where did he get it, I've never heard of that script before, sounds crazy
[04:41] <Tannu> not my ubuntu
[04:41] <chjunior> where can I find that sharing GUI for gnome? that used in ubuntu? what is the package? where I right click in the folder and select "share folder"
[04:41] <erUSUL> ikonia: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3136258#post3136258
[04:41] <dystopianray> Tannu: 60 seconds is normal
[04:41] <ikonia> Tannu it it slow to get to xorg or fast to get to xorg then slow to start xorg
[04:41] <ikonia> where is the slow point
[04:42] <darkchr0n0s> ikonia, it's http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=511974
[04:42] <Tannu> ok
[04:42] <erUSUL> ikonia: i do not have account in the forums can not get the script
[04:42] <darkchr0n0s> erUSUL, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=511974 (it's the starting of thread)
[04:43] <ikonia> erUSUL: I don't like the look of that
[04:43] <nixno0b> anyone know of any predictive text/autocomplete functionality for gnome console?
[04:43] <ikonia> I'm shocked its being "recommended"
[04:43] <ikonia> nixno0b press tab
[04:43] <nixno0b> ikonia, yes i kno but i'd like it to suggest automatically
[04:44] <KyleS-work> the 2.6.22 kernel is buggy :P
[04:44] <KyleS-work> I'm banking on the 2.6.23 kernel
[04:44] <ikonia> nixno0b it doesn't do that
[04:44] <ikonia> KyleS-work in what way buggy
[04:44] <ikonia> erUSUL: the script is a poor python script, not a good thing at all
[04:44] <twoshadetod> What's good to convert an .avi to a dvd format?
[04:44] <KyleS-work> I think it might be all the "new" stuff they jampacked into the .22 kernel :)
[04:44] <ikonia> KyleS-work what stuff ?
[04:44] <blubb> who actually is using ghostscript? I mean who is exectuing the command? Maybe I could set a different path there
[04:44] <ikonia> KyleS-work whats poor, whats brtoke
[04:45] <KyleS-work> The wireless things
[04:45] <mjrclark> chjunior:  system->admin->shared folders
[04:45] <twoshadetod> lol good and easy, pref a gui
[04:45] <KyleS-work> iee, g2g
[04:45] <KyleS-work> meeting time :)
[04:45] <KyleS-work> I'll bbl~
[04:45] <ikonia> KyleS-work what things, your making very open and sweeping comments
[04:45] <ikonia> ooh and now your off
[04:45] <erUSUL> ikonia: well ubuntu forums is full of equally "dangerous" recomendations afaics (btw i think that installing the new kernel deb is less dangerous that most other things becouse the kernel is somewhat more "isolated" than many other core packages)
[04:45] <KyleS-work> sorry lol
[04:45] <KyleS-work> it's 9:45 meeting's at 10
[04:45] <chjunior> mjrclark, but what is the package name?
[04:45] <ikonia> erUSUL don't like that at all
[04:46] <hmhowie> twoshadetod: i've never seen a stand-alone dvd player that can't play avi and mpeg and others.
[04:46] <mjrclark> chjunior; That comes installed automtically, asks if you want windows or unix filesharing then installs the packages for you.
[04:46] <nahka> !dvd
[04:46] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[04:46] <Bsims> Hrm any idea when ubuntu will ship a working kicker in kde4?
[04:47] <twoshadetod> hmhowie, you've NEVER seen one? or as of lately?
[04:47] <hmhowie> twoshadetod: never ever. of course, i live in europe...
[04:47] <erUSUL> ikonia: guess that it is just me who thins that way as i usually run self compiled vanilla kernels ;)
[04:48] <ikonia> erUSUL but your not sat around scripting it genericly to work on anyones system and passing it out as an "option" to anyone who can login to a forum
[04:48] <twoshadetod> hmhowie, interesting.  Up until 5 years or so ago It was difficult to find one that would play them, you would have more luck with mpg/vcd but that would even be a daunting task
[04:48] <twoshadetod> at least for me.
[04:49] <bobdrakken> anyoen on
[04:49] <mjrclark> chjunior;  I think the packages it installs are libgnomevfs2-extra and libsmbclient , but I am on gutsy, maybe different in other *buntu versions.
[04:50] <twoshadetod> nah :)
[04:50] <mdos> hello everybody
[04:50] <bobdrakken> i have sorta a random question
[04:50] <mdos> I have a little network iface problem...
[04:50] <albertito> hi! I installed ubuntu 7.04 (amd64) a couple of days ago, and while it works fine, I can't get grub to work. gentoo's grub works, but I can't depend on it (I'm trying to replace gentoo with ubuntu...). It installs just fine, but at boot time, the BIOS doesn't recognise it. It's an Intel 945 motherboard with a Pentium D processor
[04:50] <chjunior> mjrclark, hummmmm I'm at gentoo.... I'm just trying to get the same usability :D
[04:50] <stefg> ikonia , erUSUL : i think, too, that a big fat warning by a moderator should be attached to a suggestion like that, with linnks to 'the master kernel' thread and explanations what a toolchain is...
[04:50] <murkyMurk> bobdrakken: i have random answers: fish
[04:50] <bobdrakken> not sure if anyone will know but... what is the alternative of pg2 for people that use linux
[04:50] <bobdrakken> sense there is no pg2 linux yet
[04:50] <mdos> the module is loaded , the mii command said all is ok...but eth0 doesn't appear.....
[04:50] <erUSUL> ikonia: no, that's true. But i have recomended people to stick with an older kernel if things stop working with the new one (not uncommon at all)
[04:51] <dystopianray> albertito: a regular ubuntu install doesn't give you a working grub?
[04:51] <dystopianray> bobdrakken: what is pg2?
[04:51] <davidw> the second version of paul graham
[04:51] <albertito> dystopianray: I use the regular installer (well, the alternative one to use the text interface, but the normal procedure) and it didn't
[04:51] <bobdrakken> lol no
[04:51] <bobdrakken> its...
[04:51] <davidw> the first one had too many ()(()()))
[04:51] <bobdrakken> peer guardian
[04:51] <albertito> dystopianray: I used the live CD to boot from the first hard disk, and that works
[04:51] <erUSUL> ikonia: and generally that couses less problems than many instructions on how to get compiz working does ;)
[04:51] <dystopianray> albertito: are you sure your bios is booting the correct drive?
[04:52] <blue|palm> !dialup
[04:52] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[04:52] <dystopianray> albertito: the bios can't boot the drive but the livecd can?
[04:52] <albertito> dystopianray: yes, I only have one hard disk drive, I checked it a trillon times, and if I install grub through gentoo it works
[04:52] <albertito> dystopianray: that's right
[04:53] <sris> is it possible to change the "behaviour" of a modifier key? i want to put ctrl on capslock
[04:53] <dystopianray> albertito: doesn't doing that from the livecd involve running grub off the hdd though?
[04:53] <albertito> sris: try xmodmap
[04:53] <soundray> I'm in the market for a laptop to run Ubuntu on. Any recommendations?
[04:53] <sris> albertito, thanks

[04:57] <cyber_brain_mfkg> how to set up NAT to make my torrent clint to work?
[04:58] <[-Haza-] > dystopianray: okay. so the first line is for the jSDK and that comes with the JRE too i assume?
[04:58] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: you need to forward the ports your torrent client is using to the machien it is running on
[04:58] <Rageon> whats this channels view on ubuntu ultimate/gamers? distro
[04:58] <soundray> murkyMurk: is that what you have?

[04:58] <cyber_brain_mfkg> dystopianray, how to do that?
[04:58] <[-Haza-] > dystopianray: Thanks again matey
[04:58] <soundray> dystopianray: have you tried a Dell?
[04:59] <dystopianray> soundray: I own an inspiron 6000, it was perfect
[04:59] <dystopianray> soundray: 'is' perfect rather ;)
[04:59] <cyber_brain_mfkg> dystopianray, i am useing gnome bittorrent!
[04:59] <dystopianray> [-Haza-] : after you've installed the package run this: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[05:00] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: it depends on how your network is setup
[05:00] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: how are you connected to the internet?
[05:00] <erUSUL> Whitor: changing the version of such a core package is not easy nor recomended... just wait a few days till gutsy comes out (or try the betas)
[05:00] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: and does your network use dhcp or static ips?
[05:00] <soundray> dystopianray: thanks, I'll have a look
[05:00] <[-Haza-] > dystopianray: will do! =)
[05:00] <erUSUL> !info libc6 gutsy
[05:00] <dystopianray> soundray: if you get an ubuntu dell it'll 'just work'
[05:01] <Rageon> erUSUL, when gutsy comes out will i haveto reinstall ubuntu?.. and is it a stable release?
[05:01] <ubotu> libc6: GNU C Library: Shared libraries. In component main, is required. Version 2.6.1-1ubuntu7 (gutsy), package size 4085 kB, installed size 10120 kB

[05:02] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: does the AP connect directly to the internet or go through a modem?

[05:02] <cyber_brain_mfkg> dystopianray, AP is connectet directly to my ISP!
[05:02] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: you need to configure your AP to forward the correct prots to your machines address
[05:03] <cyber_brain_mfkg> dystopianray, my AP is not router and don't need to be forwared!
[05:03] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: what do you mean?
[05:05] <cyber_brain_mfkg> dystopianray, i used to use "iptables -A FORWARD -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT" and it worked fine till few days ago!i had to type this command every time i restarted my machine and now it won't work! :(
[05:05] <Anlar> erUSUL: there are applications that search systematically for the cruft that doesn't belong to packages
[05:05] <whileimhere> Anyone know of a frontend to edit exif image data?
[05:05] <xargon> hey, what can i use to extract split rar files?
[05:05] <TD-Linux> split rar files?
[05:05] <murkyMurk> cyber_brain_mfkg: reconfigure to use DHCP...much easier
[05:05] <dystopianray> xargon: unrar
[05:05] <TD-Linux> unrar-free is good
[05:05] <r2r4> hello !  how can i extract the src from a rpm pkg ?
[05:05] <TD-Linux> ihjbyuh
[05:05] <TD-Linux> oops
[05:05] <TD-Linux> r2r4, alien
[05:05] <erUSUL> Anlar: thanks for the tip but a reinstall after 4-5 upgrades wouldn't hurt
[05:05] <hmhowie> oh noes. my attempt to install ubuntu server on a pentium MMX from 1997 isn't working :(
[05:06] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: your AP has iptables?
[05:06] <xargon> dystopianray, do i just unrar the first file in the series of split files and it will automatically link the rest?
[05:06] <TD-Linux> I should try it on my Pentium/60 :)
[05:06] <dystopianray> xargon: that's right
[05:06] <kst> hmhowie lol
[05:06] <xargon> dystopianray, thansk
[05:06] <TD-Linux> xargon, maybe you can simply join the files end-to-end first?
[05:06] <dystopianray> xargon: first is usually .rar and the others .r00 .r01 and what not
[05:06] <r2r4> TD-Linux, wt ?
[05:06] <xargon> dystopianray, kk

[05:07] <dystopianray> quint: build-essential
[05:07] <murkyMurk> lol  liveCD is suggesting I restart my computer to update my system....
[05:07] <TD-Linux> quint, you may need stuff like autoconf and things that build-essential does not install
[05:07] <r2r4> all right i try it now
[05:07] <zero-9376> can someone reccommend a light ftp server suitable for an old system
[05:07] <xargon> dystopianray, it says unrar not installed, i have 7zip installed, you think that does it too?
[05:08] <cyber_brain_mfkg> dystopianray, i am useing pppoe and i have no access to my ISP servers at all!
[05:08] <TD-Linux> and make sure to install the -dev versions of packages that it requires

[05:08] <fevel> hey guys...I connect to a bunch of servers through ssh, in Windows I used putty to store all the ips for a quick logon...is there a way to store a list of servers on ubuntu?
[05:08] <TD-Linux> xargon, install unrar-free
[05:08] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: i never said anything about your isps servers
[05:08] <quint> TD-Linux: and there i can get this stuff?)
[05:08] <TD-Linux> sudo aptitude install unrar-free
[05:08] <dystopianray> xargon: i don't know about 7zip but just install unrar if you want to use it
[05:08] <dystopianray> xargon: do not get unrar-free it is compeltely useless
[05:08] <TD-Linux> quint, get it from the official repos
[05:08] <xargon> ?
[05:08] <TD-Linux> it's useless? works for me
[05:08] <xargon> which one am i getting then?
[05:08] <dystopianray> xargon: unrar-free can't extract the files you have
[05:08] <TD-Linux> unrar might be fine then
[05:09] <soundray> fevel: one way would be to make mnemonic entries for each server in /etc/hosts
[05:09] <dystopianray> TD-Linux: you must be using extremely old rar files
[05:09] <cyber_brain_mfkg> dystopianray, u think if i change to DHCP i won't have forwarding problems???
[05:09] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: i doubt it
[05:10] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: stick to your current setup
[05:10] <hmhowie> fluxbuntu has been dropped, hasn't it?
[05:10] <dystopianray> cyber_brain_mfkg: all you need to do is forward the torrent ports from the AP to your client machine
[05:10] <dystopianray> xargon: install 'unrar'
[05:10] <stefg> hmhowie: not dropped, but going slow.... server install + fluxbox ?
[05:10] <softwork> creative lauch drivers for x-fi
[05:10] <dystopianray> softwork: they're available now?
[05:10] <softwork> yes
[05:10] <softwork> in creative website
[05:11] <softwork> : )
[05:11] <dystopianray> no linux user should be buying a x-fi
[05:11] <xargon> dystopianray, whats xarchiver btw?
[05:11] <dystopianray> xargon: no idea
[05:11] <dystopianray> softwork: can you provide a link?
[05:11] <joejaxx> hmhowie: dropped?
[05:12] <joejaxx> hmhowie: who told you that? lol
[05:12] <xargon> dystopianray, one sec, im looking at it in synaptic package manager
[05:12] <fevel> soundray: can you explain a little better?
[05:12] <softwork> http://www.creative.com/language.asp?sDestUrl=/support/downloads
[05:12] <softwork> there
[05:12] <crsposftp> any suggestions of a forum that will help with iptables?
[05:13] <dystopianray> crsposftp: ubuntu forums
[05:13] <hmhowie> stefg: that was my plan :)
[05:13] <hmhowie> joejaxx: well the latest version i can find is based on dapper
[05:13] <crsposftp> http://crs-usa.serveftp.com/crs-usa/firewall.bash.txt

[05:13] <xargon> dystopianray, http://pastebin.com/m6eb06d59
[05:14] <xargon> dystopianray, i dont know where a list of stuff in the package manager is to link it
[05:14] <soundray> fevel: if you add a line like '192.168.75.10 server1' to /etc/hosts, you will then be able to just 'ssh server1' to connect
[05:14] <softwork> (j #creative
[05:14] <dystopianray> xargon: just install unrar

[05:17] <QueenAnya> I just had a pop up called spy shredder telling me I had spywear on my computer, is this a true pop up or is it spywear?? What do I do??
[05:17] <dystopianray> QueenAnya: is it a web browser popup?
[05:18] <hmhowie> joejaxx: i really wanted a 2.6er kernel, so dsl isn't the best. i just want a small distribution with which i can run emacs :)
[05:18] <susscorfa> Do you run ubuntu QueenAnya ? most probably it is some popup to fool windows users
[05:18] <joejaxx> hmhowie: gentoo then :P
[05:18] <QueenAnya> dystopianray, so I dont need to do anything about it its fake?
[05:19] <dystopianray> QueenAnya: is it a browser popupr or did it come from somewhere else?
[05:19] <QueenAnya> susscorfa, yes my computer is ubuntu
[05:19] <dystopianray> gentoo is not a small distro
[05:19] <hmhowie> joejaxx: i had a zenwalk on it, but i seem to have hosed my xserver, and i can't remember how... :)
[05:19] <joejaxx> hmhowie: :P

[05:21] <QueenAnya> dystopianray, blackfeet, susscorfa, Thank you soo much! :)
[05:21] <askand> dystopianray: how can I tell the sshserver to do that
[05:21] <Pici> Rageon: gdm is the login manager, splash screens are what come up after you login (although gnome-look has alot of usplashes stuffed into that category for whatever reason)
[05:21] <dystopianray> askand: you configure the port in /etc/ssh/sshd_config

[05:30] <Anlar> might help if opensshd was actualyl installed ;)
[05:31] <Nauraushaun> Still doesn't want to play MP3.
[05:31] <dystopianray> has anyone tried amazon's mp3 store in ubuntu?
[05:31] <stefg> YarekT: no openssh-server is installed by default. you need to sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[05:31] <YarekT> stefg: thanks
[05:31] <dystopianray> Nauraushaun: did you restart the player?
[05:32] <Nauraushaun> It wasn't open before I did it, then I opened it.
[05:32] <Nauraushaun> So...yes. I suppose.
[05:32] <dystopianray> Nauraushaun: try another player like totem
[05:33] <Nauraushaun> I've tried 4. Kaffeine, for example, specifically says that it plays MP3s by default. It doesn't.
[05:33] <Nauraushaun> But sure.
[05:33] <dystopianray> Nauraushaun: for kaffeine you need to do: sudo apt-get install libxine-extracodecs
[05:33] <kiubuntu> anyone knows a room where i can ask queries abt rails hosting? i want to have my personal mephisto blog
[05:34] <Nauraushaun> Why doesn't it say that? How is anyone supposed to figure it out?
[05:34] <dystopianray> kiubuntu: is there a #rails room?
[05:34] <dystopianray> Nauraushaun: it should popup with a dialog guiding you through install codecs
[05:35] <dystopianray> Nauraushaun: are you using feisty?
[05:35] <kiubuntu> i found it. #rubyonrails
[05:35] <Nauraushaun> Yes.
[05:35] <pike_> kiubuntu: #ruby-lang ?
[05:35] <pike_> nm
[05:35] <Nauraushaun> It's installing some stuff.
[05:35] <sethk> kiubuntu, a ruby channel might be more likely to find someone who knows about rails, and/or who knows what channels are best for rails.
[05:35] <dystopianray> Nauraushaun: install libxine-extracodecs and try again

[05:36] <clip> how can i set noapic for ubuntu in grub? i have 2 systems winxp and ubuntu. xp requires acpi apic enabled and ubuntu wants it disabled, how can i set this, so i don't have to change it in the bios each time i switch system
[05:36] <stefg> lagrimo: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:37] <LjL> clip: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and, in the line that begins with  # kopt= , add "noapic" to the end
[05:37] <pike_> lagrimo: youre either going to want to edit manually: sudo nanoe /etc/X11/xorg.conf  or go through reconfig
[05:37] <bruenig> clip, put it on the kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:37] <LjL> clip: then do a sudo update-grub
[05:37] <pike_> lagrimo: er nano not nanoe :)
[05:38] <clip> bruenig, what exactly?
[05:38] <hmhowie> does anyone know of a cli icq client?

[05:38] <Nauraushaun> Kaffeine just closes every time I open it.
[05:39] <LjL> !info centericq > hmhowie
[05:39] <clip> LjL, put what in the kernel?
[05:39] <dystopianray> Nauraushaun: sounds like something has gone wrong
[05:39] <wanger> centericq is what centerim is based on, and it's in the repos i think
[05:39] <dystopianray> Nauraushaun: run it from a terminal and see what errors it spits out
[05:39] <Nauraushaun> Great.
[05:39] <Nauraushaun> I don't know how.
[05:39] <LjL> clip, i told you...
[05:39] <hmhowie> okey-dokey :)
[05:39] <LjL> clip: 1) gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:40] <dystopianray> wow, amazon is making a linux client for their drm-free mp3 download site
[05:40] <clip> oh sory, i didn't see
[05:40] <LjL> clip: 2) find the line that begins with        # kopt=
[05:40] <LjL> clip: 3) add "noapic" to the end of it
[05:40] <LjL> clip: 4) save, close, run  sudo update-grub

[05:40] <dystopianray> susscorfa: what news?
[05:40] <Puppy_> dgjones: thanks!
[05:41] <seth> can anyone recommend software to record my interaction on my desktop?
[05:41] <blue|palm> how do I control antialiasing of fonts in kde application whilst using gnome?
[05:41] <susscorfa> about the amazon client
[05:41] <Anlar> seth: wink

[05:42] <seth> thanks
[05:42] <chalcedony> on a new installation of ubuntu is there any way to get the deselected packages all pretty much at once?
[05:42] <dystopianray> susscorfa: it's mentioned on the download page for the windows/osx client
[05:42] <LjL> clip: i think it just makes it use an older way of interfacing with the interrupt controller. perhaps it can make some things marginally slower... i don't really know. i have noapic enabled, and i don't notice anything special
[05:42] <chalcedony> on a new installation of ubuntu is there any way to get the deselected packages all pretty much at once? every time I go to do something, the things I want to do it with are not here.
[05:42] <LjL> chalcedony: the *de*selected?
[05:43] <Rageon> how do i change my login screen
[05:43] <xargon> well dystopianray thanks
[05:43] <chalcedony> LjL: apparently when my son installed it he wanted it to be quick, because he was leaving town..
[05:43] <bieb> which .bashrc is the primary? the one in /root? or the one in my users home dir?
[05:43] <Crozar> how can i get the icons like MAC OS X???
[05:43] <soundray> !clone | chalcedony
[05:43] <ubotu> chalcedony: 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
[05:43] <bruenig> bieb, /etc/bash.bashrc
[05:44] <susscorfa> Rageon: system > administration > login window
[05:44] <LjL> chalcedony, but if it was installed from the Desktop CD, then the package selections are the standard ones - you cannot deselect packages
[05:44] <bruenig> bieb, or wait I didn't read your question, your user's bashrc obviously trumps any others
[05:44] <bieb> bruenig.. thanks
[05:44] <LjL> bieb: there is no "primary" one, each user has their own
[05:44] <Rageon> thanks susscorfa
[05:44] <anonimen> TAKSISDT
[05:44] <chalcedony> LjL: how would i tell? i had it all updated and ready to move..
[05:45] <bieb> LjL I worded that wrong
[05:45] <Crozar> how to get icons like mac  os x and last but not least how to tweak processeses because i see alot
[05:45] <LjL> chalcedony, is ubuntu-desktop installed?
[05:45] <bieb> Bruenig answered what I needed, the .bashrc in the /home dir trumps the /root one
[05:45] <chalcedony> LjL: how would i tell ?
[05:46] <LjL> chalcedony: "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop". if it's already installed, it won't install anything.
[05:46] <kitche> bieb: of course since the one in /root is for root
[05:46] <chalcedony> LjL: ty
[05:46] <bruenig> bieb, the /root one doesn't come into play at all, but there is one in /etc/bash.bashrc or at least there can be and that one is trumped by your user as well
[05:46] <chalcedony> LjL: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded.
[05:46] <chalcedony> ~$
[05:46] <Pici> Crozar: You need to be more detailed in your questions, what does 'icons like osx' mean? And what is wrong with your processes.
[05:46] <mdmkolbe|ubuntu> Dumb question, but how do I set me Ubuntu laptop into presentation mode?
[05:47] <dystopianray> mdmkolbe|ubuntu: presentation mode?
[05:47] <LjL> chalcedony: then you have ubuntu-desktop installed, which most likely means that you have a 100% normal ubuntu installation, with all the packages that are normally there

[05:47] <the_atom> can anyone help me out here?
[05:48] <Crozar> Pici: processeses is alot its like i have many unnecesary things open
[05:48] <LjL> !helpme
[05:48] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:48] <mdmkolbe|ubuntu> dystopianray: basically turn on the external display
[05:48] <pavel^k> hi
[05:48] <soundray> mdmkolbe|ubuntu: on most laptops, there is a key combination that enables video output via the VGA output
[05:48] <dystopianray> mdmkolbe|ubuntu: what video card do you have?
[05:48] <chalcedony> LjL: yes and a few i use are not here .. like Lynx
[05:48] <pavel^k> how areyou
[05:48] <Pici> Crozar: Like what?
[05:48] <chalcedony> and the spell checker in mutt
[05:48] <bieb> Bruenig, thanks.. I will work in the users .bashrc
[05:48] <mdmkolbe|ubuntu> dystopianray: how do I check that?
[05:48] <Crozar> Pici: and Mac OS X is macintosh they have icons like something in ubuntu called Kiba-Dock
[05:48] <Rageon> whats the keyboard shortcut to goto login screen/
[05:48] <LjL> chalcedony: that's because they're *never* there by default. just install them
[05:48] <dystopianray> mdmkolbe|ubuntu: pastebin your lspci output
[05:48] <chalcedony> LjL: lynx wont install
[05:49] <LjL> chalcedony: how so?
[05:49] <vsayikiran> what should i do if my computer hangs ?
[05:49] <Rageon> Whats the keyboard shortcut to goto login screen please?
[05:49] <Crozar> Pici:  i got 35 running processeses
[05:49] <mdmkolbe|ubuntu> dystopianray: http://rafb.net/p/10GfbI81.html
[05:49] <pavel^k> hi
[05:49] <chalcedony> root@marcus:~# apt-get lynx
[05:49] <chalcedony> E: Invalid operation lynx
[05:49] <chalcedony> root@marcus:~# apt-get lynx-cur-wrapper
[05:49] <chalcedony> E: Invalid operation lynx-cur-wrapper
[05:49] <chalcedony> root@marcus:~#
[05:49] <LjL> Rageon: you normally need to logout in order to go back to the login screen
[05:49] <LjL> !paste | chalcedony
[05:49] <ubotu> chalcedony: 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)
[05:50] <LjL> chalcedony: it's  sudo apt-get install lynx 
[05:50] <pavel^k> hu
[05:50] <LjL> !apt > chalcedony    (chalcedony, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:50] <scraliontis> ctrl=alt=backspace
[05:50] <vsayikiran> is there any equivalent of ctrl+alt+delete like in windows
[05:50] <Rageon> ok. what the keyboard shortcut to logout please :)
[05:50] <LjL> vsayikiran: ctrl+alt+backspace restarts X windows
[05:50] <dystopianray> mdmkolbe|ubuntu: do you just want to clone your desktop?
[05:50] <Pici> Crozar: Number of processes doesnt mean anything. Many of those are used by your system to do things to make your desktop environment work.
[05:50] <LjL> Rageon, i don't know, i'm on KDE
[05:51] <Rageon> mk
[05:51] <pavel^k> how are you ljl
[05:51] <LjL> i'm fine thanks
[05:51] <pavel^k> where you from
[05:51] <LjL> !offtopic
[05:51] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:51] <mdmkolbe|ubuntu> dystopianray: if by clone you mean show to the external display what is on my laptop screen, then yes that would be good enough.  (though if there are any wizards for dealing with the other combinations it might be useful to know those)
[05:51] <sethk> Crozar, to amplify a bit what Pici said, most of those processes are sleeping and do not consume significant resources.
[05:51] <Crozar> Pici:  with blackvipers guide after i learn so much about windows i can make windows run soo fast and start things when needed and closes when u close the things u closed , and yes my XP had 8 processes it is fast
[05:52] <pavel^k> im from masedonian
[05:52] <Tilllinux> heya, I've got a problem here: I can only hear sounds coming from my right box. (Only on ubuntu, I can hear both, right and left, on windows)
[05:52] <dystopianray> mdmkolbe|ubuntu: add 'Option "Clone"' to the device section of your xorg.conf and restart X
[05:52] <LjL> pavel^k, this is a support channel, not a generic chat channel
[05:52] <dystopianray> mdmkolbe|ubuntu: you can read the i810 man page for details on configurations
[05:52] <Pici> Crozar: Windows is not the same thing as Unix/Linux, you really cannot compare them like that.
[05:52] <Crozar> ok but i can compare 1 thing , its when the system concentrate about a process :)
[05:53] <LjL> Crozar: if a process is taking up all the CPU while it's just supposed to be idling, then there's something wrong with the process.
[05:53] <Crozar> i acknowledge the fact that windows focuses soo well into a based processes thats when you make it , example running game , or app's photoshop
[05:53] <savetheWorld> %term: Avoid using windows terminology when talking about Linux. Using terms like "shortcuts" and others will cause you to misunderstand your own system and mis-educate others about what Linux is.
[05:53] <vsayikiran> when i leave my pc idle for some time, it launches the matrix screensaver, after sometime it hangs?
[05:53] <sethk> Crozar, actually, the o/s scheduling algorithms make this comparison difficult.
[05:54] <Crozar> ok i hope its diffrent ,because linux feels slow
[05:54] <sethk> Crozar, note that there are alternative scheduling policies available in Linux; you might want to examine these to see if one may be more suited to your situation than the default.
[05:54] <chalcedony> LjL: is there a difference between lynx (which installed per your instructions) and lynx cur-wrapper ?
[05:54] <Crozar> slower then before :( it was fast when it was running default without any updates and nothign straight otu of box
[05:54] <riutaro> I want to edit menu.lst for GRUB cuz I have Linux versions that I shan't use for booting up Ubuntu and want to delete them from GRUB start up menu.
[05:54] <vsayikiran> what should i do when i my pc hangs
[05:54] <Anlar> vsayikiran: cut the rope?
[05:54] <proffalken> hi all, I'm having an issue with apt at the moment, a large number of files do not seem to be verifying correctly regardless of which mirror I use
[05:55] <Anlar> *trrr-kssh!*
[05:55] <Tilllinux> riutaro: alt+f2 gksudo nautilus -> boot/grub and comment the uneeded ones with #  out
[05:55] <Crozar> sethk: any ideas about kiba-dock?
[05:55] <sethk> Crozar, ruuning one of the lighter weight desktops (that is, not gnome and not KDE) results in a dramatic increase in performance.
[05:55] <vsayikiran> what should i do when my pc hangs?
[05:55] <kotau> cut the rope
[05:55] <sethk> Crozar, No, I don't really know enough about it to say anything intelligent.
[05:55] <LjL> chalcedony: i don't really know what the latter is (you can see a description by typing  apt-cache show lynx-cur-wrapper , but it doesn't seem very informative to me) -- just install lynx
[05:55] <Crozar> why programs still on beta? linux is not beta and when vista comes up with docks and widgets theyr up to verison 2 and 4
[05:55] <chalcedony> LjL: thanks
[05:55] <vsayikiran> Anlar: i didn't get you
[05:55] <LjL> chalcedony: keep in mind, however, that "links2" is a Lynx-like browser which is way more advanced right now.
[05:55] <LjL> chalcedony: another good text-mode browser is w3m
[05:56] <vsayikiran> what should i do when my pc hangs
[05:56] <Crozar> i wish too see stable releases soon.
[05:56] <dystopianray> Crozar: version numbers are often completely arbitrary
[05:56] <vsayikiran> when matrix screensaver runs for sometime, my pc hangs
[05:56] <Tilllinux> so, does anyone have a clue, why there's only one soundoutput on my system (I'm running ubuntuStudio with a low-latency kernel, sometimes with a jack server started, if I want to use linuxSampler)
[05:56] <Pici> vsayikiran: Then change the screensaver and see if it still happens.
[05:56] <vsayikiran> does anyone know what to do when my computer hangs
[05:56] <Crozar> it defines something telling it if the program is suitable or not yet
[05:56] <Tilllinux> vsayikiran: reboot :p
[05:57] <Crozar> every1 knows that version 1 and + means its OK and getting better :)
[05:57] <preaction> Crozar, no, it's often completely arbitrary
[05:57] <Pici> Crozar: Can we move this to -offtopic, this isnt really support worhy.
[05:57] <vsayikiran> Pici: no then it is not hanging
[05:57] <Rageon> i install a login theme.. says its installed but doesnt show up for me to select? i try to add again is says its already installed.. ???/
[05:57] <proffalken> vsayikiran: try pressing CTRL+ALT+F1 or the equivalent on your keyboard.  if you get a login prompt, login and type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[05:57] <Rageon> gnome btw
[05:57] <LjL> vsayikiran, i sometimes pull the plug, but that's too generic a question to answer. you have a problem with a screensaver -- then finding out what causes it is the question, not what to do when your PC hangs
[05:57] <Tilllinux> vsayikiran:  then don't use this screensaver ^^
[05:57] <Crozar> Pici: the topic is any tweak guide to know what is default for ubuntu and what is best settings to have most running smooth .
[05:57] <Tilllinux> vsayikiran: there are btw two matrix screensavers
[05:57] <Nauraushaun> Still trying to get MP3s to work.
[05:57] <proffalken> vsayikiran: you will loose any work that you have open in Gnome, but you should get a login prompt back to continue working.
[05:58] <proffalken> vsayikiran: at least you won't have to reboot your PC
[05:58] <vsayikiran> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart what does this command sdo?
[05:58] <WoLf00>    CiAo!! a TuTTi Di #ubuntu    < ~WoLf00 ScRiPt v.0.1~ > 
[05:58] <LjL> Crozar, the Ubuntu development teams spends a considerable amount of time trying to make the default Ubuntu setup run smoothly.
[05:58] <Rageon> i install a login theme.. says its installed but doesnt show up for me to select? i try to add again is says its already installed.. ??? GNOME
[05:58] <LjL> WoLf00: no scripts, thank you
[05:58] <Tilllinux> vsayikiran: it restarts the gnome display manager
[05:58] <proffalken> vsayikiran: restarts the X windows environment (Gnome - your "Windows" screen)
[05:58] <Pici> Crozar: There are many guides out there, but you will need to look for them yourself.  We are of the impression that the default Ubuntu install is scaled properly for different hardware and doesnt need tweaking.
[05:59] <Crozar> so then the people wont know nothing about theyr system how can i trust putting my CC on netbanking
[05:59] <gleblanc> Hi folks, I'm having trouble using the torrent at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/gutsy-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
[05:59] <vsayikiran> so if screensaver causes my system to hang then there the problem is with my pc or screensaver?
[05:59] <LjL> Crozar, do you want support, or do you want to argue about what Ubuntu "should" be like that in your opinion isn't?
[06:00] <gleblanc> I get an error that says "Failure: Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker."
[06:00] <LjL> !rootirc | NIOS
[06:00] <ubotu> NIOS: 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
[06:01] <Crozar> LjL: i thought 1 day i will support others , and thank you for the help wanted to ask a question about something just forgot about it.
[06:01] <proffalken> vsayikiran: without looking at the log files or seeing the spec of your PC it's difficult to see (please DON'T paste them here!) however your best bet is to reboot your PC and switch to a different screensaver. If this works, it's the screen saver, if it doesn't, it's the PC.
[06:01] <riutaro> thx Tilllinux.  restarting the system....  :)
[06:01] <gleblanc> Anybody else having the same problem?
[06:01] <vsayikiran> but i want to use that matrix screensaver, i dont want my computer to hang everytime it starts: so what should i do?
[06:01] <proffalken> ubotu: well said! :o)
[06:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about well said! :o) - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:02] <proffalken> vsayikiran: the choice is simple - use teh screen saver and have the PC crash or use a different screensaver
[06:02] <Pici> vsayikiran: You can log a bug against the screensaver in question, but otherwise there isnt anything you can do.
[06:02] <panosru> Hi, is there a way in Ubuntu to display files by category? For example if i short them by type, display them in categories (like windows)
[06:03] <umop-apisdn> panosru: define "category" please?
[06:03] <proffalken> so, is anyone else having issues with apt at the moment, or is it just me?
[06:03] <vsayikiran> proffalken: so where can i find log files
[06:03] <soundray> panosru: yes, in nautilus it's called "type"
[06:03] <dystopianray> umop-apisdn: obviously he means things like 'audio' 'video' 'documents'
[06:03] <vsayikiran> yes i am having problem with apt-get update
[06:04] <umop-apisdn> dystopianray: if it were obvious, i wouldn't have asked.
[06:04] <Pici> proffalken: what kind of problems?
[06:04] <umop-apisdn> dystopianray: i've found that assuming i know what someone is talking about is sometimes dangerous, and so i tend to ask for clarification before telling them how to break their pc ;)
[06:04] <proffalken> a number of files (specifically Java and Open Office so not sure if there's a link) are refusing to MD5
[06:04] <sethk> panosru, you can do exactly the same things you can do in windows.
[06:04] <AaronMT> Can anyone recommend a gnome application that will let me edit and fill in PDF forms, Evince doesnt have that feature
[06:05] <dystopianray> AaronMT: only adobe's reader has that functionality
[06:05] <praet> AaronMT: coming in gutsy i believe
[06:05] <Pici> dystopianray: AaronMT: evince in Gutsy has that :)
[06:05] <sethk> AaronMT, the only way I've found to do that is to convert the document to another format, modify it, and convert it back to PDF
[06:05] <soundray> AaronMT: that's a bit of a sore point in Linux. You can try flpsed, but it's fairly experimental
[06:05] <chalcedony> i oopsed how do i remove lynx-cur ?
[06:05] <AaronMT> Maybe I can update evince than, are there public binaries?
[06:05] <soundray> AaronMT: I get the best results by importing PDFs into kword
[06:06] <Cyrus25801> How do I write a .mdf file to a cd
[06:06] <proffalken> chalcedony: apt-get remove?
[06:06] <LjL> chalcedony: sudo apt-get remove lynx-cur
[06:06] <chalcedony> LjL: ty :)
[06:06] <LjL> chalcedony, i suggest you read the documents i've made Ubotu send you though...
[06:06] <sethk> Cyrus25801, I believe cdrecord can handle that.
[06:06] <broomad> Ljl: when i sudo update-grub, it always deletes the noapic again?!
[06:06] <Cyrus25801> sethk: thanx man
[06:06] <LjL> broomad: have you added it where i said, i.e. to the line that starts with # kopts= ?
[06:06] <chalcedony> LjL: ok ty
[06:06] <sethk> Cyrus25801, note the "I believe" part.  :)
[06:07] <Al00> g'day folks -- I have a fairly simple question (at least in my fragile mind): Is it possible to attach a sound to the window minimize and maximize events? (kinda like winbloze)
[06:07] <panosru> I mean short them by type but display them categorized (i'm trying to find a screen shot from google images)
[06:07] <Tilllinux> I'm still only getting one soundouput (right/left) ;)
[06:07] <LjL> broomad: # kopt= even
[06:07] <broomad> LjL, i added it to the kernel line, mom i'll look
[06:07] <Al00> I am using Ubuntu (Gnome)
[06:07] <Cyrus25801> sethk: I realise, will try it and see. can you change a .mdf file to an .iso
[06:07] <LjL> broomad: if you add it to the kernel line, it will be removed at every kernel update. add it where i said
[06:07] <chalcedony> LjL: are you a mother too
[06:07] <chalcedony> ?
[06:08] <LjL> ...
[06:08] <chalcedony> rofl
[06:08] <sethk> Cyrus25801, I'm not sure whether there is a tool to convert it to iso.
[06:08] <threethirty> Al00: thats a wicked idea!!, but I don't think anyone has done it yet.  What you should do is find the compiz fusion dev mailing list and ask for it
[06:08] <soundray> !info mdf2iso | Cyrus25801
[06:08] <ubotu> cyrus25801: mdf2iso: A simple utility to convert mdf to iso / cue / toc images. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.0-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 6 kB, installed size 60 kB
[06:09] <broomad> LjL: # kopt=root....?
[06:09] <gabrielmonnerat> somebody can help me, my wireless interface the notebook isn't recognized
[06:09] <LjL> broomad: yes. add it to the end.
[06:09] <Al00> threethirty: thanks -- I am using compiz fusion and thought it would be kick-ass if I could get a nice swooshing sound for minimizing :)
[06:09] <dystopianray> gabrielmonnerat: what wifi card do you have?
[06:09] <sethk> Al00, KDE has the capability to attach sounds to those events
[06:10] <marx2k> Does anyone know what yesterday's kernel update accomplished? It's like the same version as the previous one
[06:10] <Al00> threethirty: compiz seems like overkill for this type of sound thing... it would be nice if it was just a std sound event gnome
[06:10] <broomad> LjL: ok i did, now update-grub
[06:10] <soundray> marx2k: /usr/share/doc/linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic/changelog.Debian.gz
[06:10] <pavel^k> hi
[06:10] <gabrielmonnerat> dystopianray BroadCom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN
[06:10] <LjL> broomad: yes. then you'll see it's been automatically added to the kernel lines, too
[06:10] <marx2k> thanks soundray :)
[06:11] <dystopianray> gabrielmonnerat: you'll need to use ndiswrapper
[06:11] <threethirty> Al00: i knw but i fugured that the same people that put fish inside of a cube would be a little more willing to write that sort of thing
[06:11] <Al00> sethk: thanks - I'd like to stay with Gnome... KDE makes me dizzy :D
[06:11] <Al00> threethirty: LOL *high 5*
[06:11] <Madnez> this blows guys
[06:11] <sethk> Al00, wouldn't want you do be dizzy.  :)
[06:11] <Madnez> anyone knows how to enable online patcher after installing win program with wine?
[06:12] <Al00> sethk: lol - yeah... don't want to blow chunks for sound
[06:12] <Madnez> i cant finish installation without getting the patch.... and wine cant connect me online
[06:12] <marx2k> ok I guess the only update (to me) in the latest kernel is "[CIFS]  CIFS should honour umask"
[06:13] <Madnez> so anyone knows how to enable internet access for wine?
[06:13] <gabrielmonnerat> dystopianray ndiswrapper -l >> bcmwl5 : driver installed
[06:13] <Madnez> or networking for wine?
[06:13] <marx2k> Madnez: It should just use the current internet connection YOU are using
[06:13] <LjL> Madnez, WINE can access the internet by default.
[06:13] <marx2k> afaik
[06:13] <ErikH1> Is it possible to change the size of the root and/or swap partitions after installation?
[06:13] <dystopianray> gabrielmonnerat: is that the driver that came with your wifi device?
[06:14] <LjL> !gparted > ErikH1    (ErikH1, see the private message from Ubotu)
[06:14] <Madnez> sure?
[06:14] <gabrielmonnerat>  dystopianray bcm43xx
[06:14] <Madnez> i cant finish installation cause it cannot auto patch
[06:14] <dystopianray> gabrielmonnerat: i'm talking about the windows driver
[06:15] <gabrielmonnerat> dystopianray yes sorry , bcmwl5
[06:15] <marx2k> Anyone know how to make a file view to be default in Konqueror? (ex. tree view)
[06:15] <LjL> Madnez: probably a bug related to the installer rather than an internet problem.
[06:16] <elliotjhug> Hi all, having problems with tomcat5.5 on Ubuntu Gutsy, any ideas what port the default install is running on? tried 8080 and 8180 but neither work
[06:16] <dystopianray> gabrielmonnerat: that is that driver that came with your wifi device?
[06:16] <LjL> marx2k: perhaps Settings / Save view profile
[06:16] <dystopianray> elliotjhug: use netstat -tulpn to see what it's running on
[06:16] <elliotjhug> dystopianray: thanks
[06:16] <marx2k> LjL: You're the man/woman ;)
[06:16] <soundray> elliotjhug: gutsy questions in #ubuntu+1 -- I don't think tomcat runs until you configure it.
[06:17] <Madnez> ok now that sucks
[06:17] <Tilllinux> hm, why do I only get left or right soundoutput...
[06:17] <LostAllHope> how do i activate my  TV-out connector ?
[06:17] <LjL> !tv out
[06:17] <ubotu> For help with enabling the TV-Out, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition (Nvidia cards) or http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout (ATI cards, *untested*)
[06:17] <dystopianray> LostAllHope: what video card do you have?
[06:17] <Tilllinux> My soundcard btw is a M-Audio Delta Audiophile 2496, i didn't test the onboard sound yet, as I switched it off in the bios
[06:17] <LostAllHope> spanx
[06:17] <LostAllHope> ATI X700
[06:18] <LostAllHope> do they work ?
[06:18] <LostAllHope> does it work with ubuntu *
[06:19] <Mahr> Hey, I have a noob question for you guys. How can I set a User image that'll show up in GDM?
[06:19] <zekopeko_> what is a good LGA775 motherboard for use with Core 2 Quad and Ubuntu?
[06:19] <chalcedony> Mahr: you can't be too newb .. i don't even know what those are
[06:20] <sethk> zekopeko_, I've had the best results with Intel motherboards, _especially_ with newer processors
[06:20] <Mahr> chalcedony, lol. Thanks for makng me feel better =)
[06:20] <chalcedony> Mahr: np ;)
[06:20] <Mahr> :P
[06:20] <pike_> Mahr: can ya do that in gdmsetup?
[06:20] <zekopeko_> sethk any favorites?
[06:20] <zekopeko_> something that just works (tm) ?
[06:20] <Mahr> pike_, I did give it a try but didn't find anywhere to select my pic.
[06:20] <pike_> no youre right there is not.
[06:21] <sethk> zekopeko_, I've only done one quad, and I it's not here, so I can't give you the specific model number.  However, every Intel motherboard I've used with linux over the last several years has "just worked."
[06:21] <sakitram> hi, I downloaded Desktop UBUNTU. And booted through it.  But at I finally end with a blank orange color screen (where Gnome or KDE session start from).  But I do not get system hang, but just seems to be nothing running from there.  What is wrong?
[06:21] <Mahr> I'll just check the repositories for anything helpfull. There must be a fool proof program out there somewhere. Take care =)
[06:21] <dystopianray> sakitram: how much memory does your computerh ave?
[06:21] <sakitram> My system conf: Pentium 3 800MhZ, 256MB ram.
[06:21] <zekopeko_> sethk so everything works (sound, PATA etc)?
[06:22] <dystopianray> sakitram: you don't have enough memory, use the alternate install cd
[06:22] <sethk> sakitram, best guess is that the monitor or video card is not properly recognized.  You can run the text mode install from the alternate cd.  The installed o/s supports many more video configurations than the bootable cd
[06:22] <sakitram> fine.
[06:22] <LostAllHope> Ljl my  video driver is fglrx
[06:22] <sethk> zekopeko_, yes, thus far.  I've had some glitches with wireless ethernet, but that's true of all the motherboards.
[06:22] <LostAllHope> so can i still tru that ?
[06:22] <KyleS-work> iwlwifi works pretty nice
[06:22] <sakitram> Is the alternate cd  like a Live CD or just an installation cD?
[06:23] <zekopeko_> sethk , don't care about wireless. thanks for the info
[06:23] <dystopianray> sakitram: an installation cd
[06:23] <chalcedony> LjL: do you have screenshots of links2?
[06:23] <sakitram> great. thank you.  I shall try now.
[06:23] <panosru> I found a screen shot look here (http://www.stevetrefethen.com/images/VistaExplorer.png)
[06:23] <chalcedony> LjL: this says that Links hasn't been maintained for a whle
[06:23] <panosru> that i mean order by type and display in categories
[06:23] <sethk> zekopeko_, even with the more expensive motherboards, i've had SATA (or whatever ATA) glitches.  More than once I've seen the o/s hard crash when accessing SATA.
[06:24] <eduardo_paranoic> hello crazy kids!
[06:24] <sethk> zekopeko_, doesn't prove that the future pattern will be the same as the past pattern, but the odds are best (IMO) with the Intel motherboards.

[06:24] <murlidhar> sakitram: it is text based installer cd which does not act like live cd
[06:24] <eduardo_paranoic> algum BR???
[06:25] <Madnez> shoot, anyone remembers the mount and unmount commands?
[06:26] <KyleS-work> mount and umount?
[06:26] <Madnez> ISO
[06:26] <pike_> Madnez: what are you trying to mount
[06:26] <LjL> chalcedony, no i don't have a screenshot... just try it, it's as simple as typing "sudo apt-get install links" and then "links2" (or "links2 -g" if you want the graphical version).
[06:26] <Madnez> sorry for ISO files
[06:26] <dystopianray> !iso > Madnez
[06:26] <pike_> Madnez: sudo mount -o loop file.iso /mnt/mahmountpoint/
[06:26] <sethk> Madnez, -t iso9660

[06:27] <Madnez> no didnt use that command
[06:27] <Madnez> another one
[06:27] <chalcedony> LjL: thank you ill try it
[06:27] <sethk> Madnez, you also need to either use the loopback flag on mount, or (and the loopback flag on mount is a shortcut for) use the losetup command to associate an iso file with a pseudo-device file.
[06:27] <proffalken> brb...
[06:27] <Madnez> hmmm
[06:27] <Madnez> shoulda wrote it down
[06:27] <derrrface> hello, just installed ubuntu (new to linux)... My audio makes crackling static noise when a wav or any type of media is played. I tried all of the different sound devices from the list.  my sound card is generic on board... any advice?
[06:28] <Madnez> theres another command for iso mounting
[06:28] <wabid> im trying to create a passwordless account, and i edited /etc/shadow to have the same encrypted password as the livecd but its not working
[06:28] <dystopianray> wabid: you can configure gdm to autologin a user
[06:28] <soundray> What's the best way for Ubuntu users to collaborate with people who use Word with the EndNote reference manager? oowriter just deletes all traces of EndNote references.
[06:29] <wabid> i dont want autologin
[06:29] <wabid> i want a guest account
[06:29] <KyleS-work> derrrface maybe you have one of the volume settings too high
[06:29] <KyleS-work> I can't think of which one off the top of my head
[06:29] <KyleS-work> but I had a similar problem
[06:29] <vegananarchist> good morning everyone
[06:29] <wabid> kdm lets you login without a password, but not gdm
[06:29] <KyleS-work> on my older computer
[06:29] <Madnez> anyway how do i unmount?
[06:29] <KyleS-work> you can with gdm...
[06:29] <sethk> wabid, if you want a passwordless account, you remove the password altogether, not try to copy one from the install cd
[06:29] <wabid> no thats autologin
[06:29] <KyleS-work> Madnez type umount
[06:30] <KyleS-work> ah...
[06:30] <wabid> doesnt work either
[06:30] <wabid> the ubuntu account on the live cd doesnt have a password
[06:30] <Madnez> thats it?
[06:30] <wabid> and it still has an encrypted hash
[06:30] <KyleS-work> you need to know the location the ISO is mounted at
[06:30] <Madnez> nope
[06:30] <Madnez> not unmount
[06:30] <KyleS-work> if it's mounted at /mnt/iso or something
[06:30] <derrrface> kyleS-work: they are all turned down....
[06:30] <KyleS-work> type umount /mnt/iso
[06:30] <wabid> umount
[06:30] <KyleS-work> ah...sorry, I'm not sure then
[06:30] <dystopianray> wabid: the livecd is probably has gdm configured to autologin that account
[06:30] <sethk> wabid, well, I've made it work, and apparently you haven't, but it appears you know more about it than I do ...
[06:30] <Madnez> unmount is not a command
[06:30] <wabid> then why dont you need a password to run sudo su
[06:31] <KyleS-work> the live cd has no password
[06:31] <dystopianray> Madkiss: umount
[06:31] <vegananarchist> My mp3 player is only showing up as read-only, It's not even featured in the fstab file, i tried to use sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sda1 to fix it but it says that it can't find the disk in fstab
[06:31] <KyleS-work> it's just ubuntu
[06:31] <KyleS-work> and blank
[06:31] <wabid> correct
[06:31] <Madnez> ahh ok
[06:31] <dystopianray> wabid: sudo is configured to not ask for a password on the livecd
[06:31] <dino_> Can anyone help me? I'm using a MX1000 through bluetooth which dont work at all, and using logitech dinovo edge keyboard on another bluetooth usb device... but mx1000 wont work! need help
[06:31] <Madnez> my mistake
[06:31] <wabid> kk
[06:31] <Madnez> its Umount
[06:31] <KyleS-work> right
[06:31] <Madnez> :P
[06:31] <Madnez> thanks
[06:31] <wabid> do you think this will work in gutsy - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=123116
[06:31] <sethk> wabid, sudo allows you to specify the situations in which you enter a password or are not prompted for a password.  See the various password options in the sudoers file
[06:32] <dystopianray> wabid: ask in #ubuntu+1
[06:32] <walidch> hi all, how can I know what version of xorg i am running?
[06:32] <wabid> noone there
[06:32] <chalcedony> dino_: better to say what specific steps you need help with
[06:32] <dystopianray> walidch: are you running feisty?
[06:32] <wabid> im just wondering if anyone knows of any reasons it wouldnt
[06:32] <walidch> yes dystopianray
[06:32] <dystopianray> walidch: you are running x.org 7.2
[06:32] <soundray> wabid: why don't you talk to sethk politely, who has set it up for himself.
[06:32] <walidch> dystopianray: ok thank you
[06:32] <dino_> chalcedony: i need someone to help me get mx1000 to work... dinovo edge is working perfectly, but i dont like laptop mouse on my desktop computer.....
[06:32] <vegananarchist> did anyone get my question?
[06:33] <Madnez> shooot
[06:33] <dystopianray> vegananarchist: try removing the fstab line, it should mount automatically
[06:33] <Madnez> its there another command for un-mounting ISO?
[06:33] <vegananarchist> the drive is mounting
[06:33] <Madnez> it says my file is not mounted based on mtab
[06:33] <vegananarchist> but it is read only
[06:33] <gorski> where are stored icons in ubuntu?
[06:33] <vegananarchist> and it's not in the fstab at all
[06:33] <Madnez> great
[06:34] <Shapeshifter> heyho. One issue, I have it from time to time with different packages. The updater keeps telling me that there are updates, but the old and new version totally match. is there a command to clean that mess up?
[06:34] <dystopianray> Madnez: did you actually mount the iso?
[06:34] <Madnez> so how do i remove it ;)
[06:34] <Madnez> well i have a folder here....
[06:34] <sethk> vegananarchist, there are default options used to mount a partition that does not appear in fstab
[06:34] <vegananarchist> ok
[06:34] <Madnez> i had forgotten which command i used to mount the ISO
[06:34] <pavel^k> hi
[06:34] <dystopianray> Madnez: sudo umount /path doesn't work?
[06:35] <Madnez> the prob is the path
[06:35] <gautada> Shapeshifter: Try %> sudo apt-get autoclean
[06:35] <vegananarchist> well the drive worked fine last night, but now my mp3 player is read only
[06:35] <dystopianray> Madnez: type 'mount' to see if it has actually been mounted
[06:35] <dino_> do i need a big 3dcard to use the special effects in ubuntu? like beryl and compiz etc.
[06:35] <vegananarchist> and i need to make it rw
[06:35] <Madnez> yeah its mounted
[06:35] <wabid> what did i say
[06:35] <dystopianray> vegananarchist: does it have some sort of read-only switch on it?
[06:35] <vegananarchist> no
[06:36] <dystopianray> Madnez: so do: sudo umount /wherever/it's/mounted
[06:36] <eracc> Hey all. If I reformat a USB 1GB thumb drive *back* to FAT16 using Linux tools  will 'doze systems recognize the partition? I had formatted it to ext3 but I need to transfer a bunch of camera picture files (about 500MB) to a friend who only has a XP desktop.
[06:36] <sethk> Madnez, umount /dev/whatever works as well
[06:36] <KyleS-work> type df -h
[06:36] <Madnez> hmmm ok got it
[06:36] <KyleS-work> and see where the iso is mounted
[06:36] <Madnez> seemed i missed a line
[06:36] <dystopianray> eracc: i beleive you need the partition id set correctly before windows will recognise it
[06:36] <sethk> eracc, yes, it will mount it.  FAT32 is a much better idea, but either will work
[06:36] <gautada> vegananarchist: try %> sudo mount -o loop /iso/file/path.iso /mount/point/path
[06:36] <Madnez> thanks for the  mount tip, gave me the full path ;)
[06:37] <Madnez> isnt FAT32 limited to files <4gig?
[06:37] <KyleS-work> :P
[06:37] <Madnez> i hate fat because of that
[06:37] <walidch> does Compiz Fusion work if I have my only monitor plugged into the DVI?
[06:37] <eracc> dystopianray, sethk, thanks.
[06:37] <Shapeshifter> gautada: Tried that, it's still there. Its a compiz-core package, but it's totally useless because it's even outdated
[06:37] <vegananarchist> /iso/file/path.iso: No such file or directory
[06:37] <soundray> eracc: you could also get your friend to install ext2fsd, which will make Windows read ext3 volumes.
[06:37] <eracc> dystopianray, does parted and the like not set the proper partition ID?
[06:38] <KyleS-work> or explore2fs
[06:38] <gautada> vegananarchist: duh you need to change the paths to your settings...
[06:38] <Madnez> odd
[06:38] <vegananarchist> ha
[06:38] <Madnez> the dir is still around
[06:38] <genii> vegananarchist: I believe the idea is you substitute there your own path and iso filename
[06:38] <derrrface> is there any way to download new sound drivers?
[06:38] <eracc> soundray, I will suggest that but I suspect he won't go for it. ;)
[06:38] <Madnez> rm doesnt even remove the dir
[06:38] <dystopianray> eracc: yes parted should, i imagine it'll 'just work'
[06:38] <KyleS-work> try rm -R
[06:38] <KyleS-work> that'll remove the directory :P
[06:38] <eracc> dystopianray, ok, thanks.
[06:38] <KyleS-work> BUT!
[06:38] <dystopianray> eracc: using fat on the drive is significantly simpler than trying to get ext2/3 working in windows
[06:38] <vegananarchist> i'm not dealing with ISO what is this part mean /iso/file/path.iso
[06:38] <KyleS-work> but it'll delete stuff in it
[06:39] <Madnez> ahh thanks again
[06:39] <eracc> dystopianray, that is what I figured.
[06:39] <pike_> !cli | Madnez
[06:39] <ubotu> Madnez: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[06:39] <Madnez> -R is for directory? why cap R?
[06:39] <KyleS-work> well, recursive
[06:39] <dystopianray> Madnez: -R means recursive
[06:39] <KyleS-work> can be lowercase too
[06:39] <Pici> vegananarchist: What type of file are you dealing with?
[06:39] <KyleS-work> I think
[06:39] <KyleS-work> maybe it's just mv -r
[06:39] <Madnez> hahaa
[06:39] <Madnez> totally forgotten the commands
[06:39] <dystopianray> -r and -R do the same thing for rm
[06:39] <Madnez> maybe i should use more terminal :D
[06:39] <sethk> KyleS-work, are we talking about rm of mv?  For rm, both -r and -R work.
[06:39] <vegananarchist> i'm dealing with an mp3 player that won't mount rw
[06:39] <gautada> Shapeshifter: You  should reboot into the command-line and remove the package then reinstall and reboot
[06:40] <sethk> KyleS-work, for mv, neither work
[06:40] <Pici> vegananarchist: Then I have no idea why that erson told you to use mount -o loop
[06:40] <vegananarchist> haha
[06:40] <KyleS-work> ah ok
[06:40] <bruenig> mv doesn't need you to specify recursive, it does it automatically
[06:40] <vegananarchist> do you have any help?
[06:40] <KyleS-work> ah
[06:40] <KyleS-work> you are right bruenig
[06:40] <bruenig> indeed
[06:40] <KyleS-work> I don't use ubuntu anymore :P
[06:41] <Shapeshifter> gautada: Is there no prossiblity to just remove the entry? because I think it's not a real package or something beacuse today I uptadet compiz-core to the newest version but that compiz-core entry there has been sticky for days....
[06:41] <KyleS-work> but, I still like it :)
[06:41] <sethk> bruenig, that's true (about mv), but if you do enter -r it yells at you.  :)
[06:41] <Madnez> ubuntu is fast, less crap and a real hands on bitch
[06:41] <Shapeshifter> gautada: so there seems to be a real and an obsolete package or something like that
[06:41] <Madnez> i love it :D
[06:42] <bruenig> fast?
[06:42] <wabid> how can i tell fstab to mount a drive for one user, but not another
[06:42] <soothsayer> What features does the medibuntu ffmpeg package have that are not present in the official version?
[06:42] <Madnez> course i spend too much time going over ubuntu that i need more time for my studies!!! =.=
[06:42] <bruenig> haven't used many other distros have you?
[06:42] <Madnez> ok thanks guys, now back to studies
[06:42] <KyleS-work> <---Archlinux :)
[06:42] <vegananarchist> still needed help
[06:42] <KyleS-work> I used gentoo before Arch
[06:42] <KyleS-work> those are fast :)
[06:43] <KyleS-work> Ubuntu is fast to install
[06:43] <sethk> KyleS-work, with the same configuration, ubuntu is a bit faster than gentoo.
[06:43] <zorro>  Un saluto a tutto il canale! 
[06:43] <wabid> madnez i have the same problem
[06:43] <KyleS-work> Gentoo takes too long to do anything with
[06:43] <KyleS-work> that's why I don't use it :)
[06:43] <vegananarchist> how do you format a drive
[06:43] <KyleS-work> But Arch...it's like MC Hammer's song :P
[06:43] <dystopianray> vegananarchist: use gparted
[06:43] <KyleS-work> Can't touch this
[06:43] <KyleS-work> lol
[06:44] <dystopianray> break it down
[06:44] <KyleS-work> oh oh oh oh oh
[06:44] <KyleS-work> stop!
[06:44] <teb> so i have 8 updates to install, but update-manager says that they're not authenticated, should i install these packages anyways?  they're things like linux headers and linux source
[06:44] <Shapeshifter> I don't see why Ubuntu should be any slower than any other linux
[06:44] <KyleS-work> Hammertime
[06:44] <KyleS-work> it's a little more bloated
[06:44] <KyleS-work> loads more modules
[06:44] <KyleS-work> that's about it
[06:44] <Shapeshifter> in which way bloated?
[06:44] <LjL> join ##ljl
[06:44] <Shapeshifter> ahh
[06:44] <dystopianray> more apps installed by default
[06:44] <sethk> teb, if you don't install things that aren't authenticated, you effectively can't use the update facility at all.
[06:44] <bruenig> more daemons
[06:44] <Shapeshifter> yeah but apps installed by default don't slow down a machine
[06:45] <bruenig> my god so many daemons
[06:45] <KyleS-work> I like Arch's KISS method
[06:45] <teb> sethk: it's just that i've never seen non-authenticated packages before, this warning box has never come up before
[06:45] <ronnie> I'm having trouble playing this dvd with totem, it has a bunch of .bup .vob .ifo
[06:45] <KyleS-work> but like I said
[06:45] <KyleS-work> I <3 ubuntu too :)
[06:45] <Shapeshifter> Once I tried mandriva. IT was bloated. Ubuntu at least "feels" kinda fast....
[06:45] <sris> is it possible to upgrade from dapper drake to a new (any) version of ubuntu, with e.g. the update manager?
[06:45] <KyleS-work> Ubuntu was my first Linux Desktop Distro
[06:45] <dystopianray> ronnie: you don't mount dvds to play them
[06:45] <iamrtg> do you guys know how do to turn off daemons from starting durring boot, like i have a bluetooth one that i don't want to start
[06:45] <teb> sethk: and i would think that at least linux-headers-2.6.20-16 would be signed
[06:46] <ronnie> dystopianray: thanks problem solved
[06:46] <pike_> yeah mandrake and the later versions of it too are bloat kings in my book
[06:46] <sethk> teb, indeed, one would expect and hope that is the case, but frequently it isn't.
[06:47] <teb> sethk: if i wait a while will a signed version be available, it wouldn't be in my best security interests to use unsigned packages (i'm a little bit of a security freak)
[06:47] <LjL> join ##metabot
[06:47] <sethk> teb, I don't disagree.  Obviously I don't know why you are updating, so I can't say whether or not waiting makes sense.
[06:47] <dystopianray> teb: all packages are signed, if not there is probably something wrong with the repos you are using
[06:47] <ronnie> dystopianray: nope actually not solved, it wants to mount the dvd to play it
[06:48] <dystopianray> ronnie: hrrm I've never used totem before but other players don't need to mount dvds to play them
[06:48] <teb> sethk: update manager said, hey i have package updates for you, here they are, that's why i'm updating
[06:48] <dystopianray> ronnie: for example on kaffeine I can just click 'play dvd' and it'll play and it doesn't need to be mounted
[06:48] <sethk> teb, if you are security conscious, you should NEVER update simply because an update is available.
[06:48] <Shapeshifter> ....I don't understand why some people are ripping on ubuntu for being easy to use ^^
[06:48] <ronnie> dystopianray: if I click play dvd it opens drive and I put dvd in then it mounts it and has new option of play dvd but with title of movie
[06:48] <teb> dystopianray: i'm using the default repos, i haven't edited my sources.list
[06:48] <eltese> Hi. Im thinking about buying a laptop but the thing is I dont know wich hardware to use and it is essential that I can have HD playback _AND_ a Dual Layer burner. So mainly Im wondering if anyone can help set something up? :) Pls message me :)
[06:48] <dystopianray> ronnie: and that doesn't work?
[06:48] <ronnie> nope
[06:49] <teb> sethk: i totally agree, but when it comes to things like the kernel and the headers i try to stay on top of them for security fixes
[06:49] <dystopianray> eltese: get a dell with ubuntu preinstalled
[06:49] <ronnie> dystopianray: it says it is missing codec or something but I have every gstreamer there is installed
[06:49] <tc75> ya des softs (ex. gnome) style access? pour grer des BD perso
[06:49] <Whitor> Hi. How do I get the 'windows' key to behave as the 'Super' key?
[06:49] <dystopianray> ronnie: did you install libdvdcss2?
[06:49] <ronnie> dystopianray: I tried using vlc and totem on files within the dvd itself but no such luck either
[06:50] <sethk> teb, indeed, but it is not uncommon for a security related patch to fix one problem and create others.  It's best to wait a while before patching, unless you know that the specific security issue that is addressed is actually relevant to your installation.  Many are quite specialized and don't apply to many configurations.
[06:50] <sethk> teb, IMO, of course
[06:50] <Whitor> Its the default key binding for compiz-fusion
[06:50] <tc75> hi, are there any good softs (ex. gnome) like access, for personal dbs?
[06:50] <dystopianray> ronnie: do you have libdvdcss2 installed?
[06:50] <ronnie> I'm installing libdvdplay hopefully that works
[06:50] <ronnie> I don't see it anywhere in repository
[06:50] <dystopianray> ronnie: install libdvdread3
[06:51] <quint> how i cab unload xserver?
[06:51] <quint> how i can unload xserver?
[06:51] <dystopianray> ronnie: then do: sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[06:51] <Rageon> how do i change when i click on a movie file what the default program that opens it is?
[06:51] <ronnie> dystopianray: already got that installed
[06:51] <panosru> I can short files by type in ubuntu but how can i display them in groups like in windows?
[06:51] <eltese> dystopianray: Yeah, But the the Swedish Dell company doesnt give you that option... Or I cant find it at their website =)
[06:51] <Pici> quint: uninstall it, or stop it?
[06:51] <quint> stop
[06:51] <teb> sethk: i respect your O, and agree with you however as i am unknowing in some aspects of linux i don't know if a particular update actually fixes something that is broken that i have or not
[06:51] <dystopianray> eltese: oh they might not offer it in sweden yet
[06:51] <quint> for installing drvs
[06:52] <Shapeshifter> Is there a good client for linux that can read/import/download outlook exchange calendars?
[06:52] <Pici> quint: `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop`
[06:52] <KyleS-work> yah
[06:52] <KyleS-work> use evolution
[06:52] <teb> sethk: so i can either stay with a hole i might possibly have or possibly create a new one, such a conundrum
[06:52] <ronnie> ooh thx that helps
[06:52] <biblio5> rocco
[06:52] <quint> thanks
[06:52] <Pici> Shapeshifter: I believe evolution can do that.
[06:52] <biblio5> alguien
[06:52] <biblio5> k hable castellano??????????
[06:52] <Pici> !es | biblio5
[06:52] <ubotu> biblio5: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[06:52] <ronnie> dystopianray; still not playing it though
[06:52] <Tarkus> any idea how i can get my scanner/printer to scan? cause i added the printer, but now i dont know how to scan..
[06:53] <Rageon> how do i change when i click on a movie file what the default program that opens it is?
[06:53] <dystopianray> ronnie: did you do this? sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[06:53] <Shapeshifter> Pici: k thx I'll have a look at it
[06:53] <ronnie> dystopianray: yeah and it installed some package
[06:53] <genii> dystopianray: DellBuntus are only being distributed in the U.S. right now afaik
[06:53] <sethk> teb, indeed, it isn't obvious what is best.  You can only play the odds.  I think the odds favor waiting a short time after a patch is released, but in any given situation this may be wrong.  It also depends on what you know about who did the patch.  I'm much more nervous about installing a windows patch than I am about installing a linux patch.
[06:53] <Pici> Rageon: right click on the program, properties, I believe its the last tab there.
[06:53] <eltese> dystopianray: Nope, they dont :) But I know how to set up a DM. I have been using Debian, Arch, Ubuntu and Kubuntu =) So that is not the problem. The problem is that I dont know anything about wich hardware I should use nor howto make sure I get 720p HD playback ;9
[06:53] <Rageon> ty ill look into that
[06:53] <PriceChild> genii, and uk... probably a few others too
[06:53] <magnetron> !hardware | eltese
[06:53] <ubotu> eltese: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[06:53] <dystopianray> ronnie: now restart your media player and try to play a dvd again
[06:54] <dystopianray> genii: I thought they were available in the UK now too?
[06:54] <teb> sethk:  lol if i had a windows machine, i'd probably be running windows 2000, and i'm not sure they make patches for that anymore
[06:54] <ronnie> did that but let me reinsert dvd as well
[06:54] <Rageon> worked thanks Pici
[06:54] <dystopianray> eltese: 720p is only 1280x720, that isn't much, any laptop will give you that
[06:55] <ronnie> dystopianray: do you mean 1024x768 or 1280x800?
[06:55] <magnetron> eltese: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/purchase#buy hasa a list of vendors. the Swedish one sells ubuntu laptops
[06:55] <genii> PriceChild , dystopianray Well my info is from 6 weeks ago now so it may have expanded distribution since then. They were only made available to Canada 3 weeks ago now and still then were being shipped from US
[06:55] <wubrgame1> hey guys, i'm in a school environment running my own computer..but i need to connect to a web proxy to get online...anyone know of a good proxy /
[06:55] <wubrgame1> * ?
[06:55] <wabid> is there a way if i have a guest account, to tell it its not allowed to mount a certain drive, but still let them use external drives
[06:55] <Pici> !offtopic | wubrgame1
[06:55] <ubotu> wubrgame1: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:55] <dystopianray> ronnie: yes 1280x800 will be suitable
[06:55] <ronnie> wabid: yeah set up its permissions
[06:55] <sethk> wubrgame1, the question doesn't make sense.  A web proxy runs on another machine, not on your machine.
[06:56] <dystopianray> ronnie: afaik most laptop screens these days are 1280x800 and up
[06:56] <wabid> do i chown the directory its mounted to
[06:56] <wabid> or to /dev/sda1 or whatever
[06:56] <dystopianray> wubrgame1: do you need to connect to your school's proxy server?
[06:56] <wubrgame1> i know that...i need a proxy address that's publicly accessible ! i just need a link...or a better channel that can help me...
[06:56] <ronnie> dystopianray: mine is 1440x900 but I didn't go for the 1600x1200 :(
[06:56] <sris> i try to update from dapper drake to edgy, using the update manager, but i get the following error: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-security/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1), any ideas of what i should do?
[06:56] <wubrgame1> i know how to connect...i'm talking to you right now...but the school's has filtering software....i want one that's open...
[06:56] <magnetron> wubrgame1: google for "open proxy"
[06:57] <dystopianray> ronnie: mine is 1680x1050, but only a 15" screen
[06:57] <wubrgame1> i can't....most are blocked'
[06:57] <magnetron> wubrgame1: google somewhere else
[06:57] <dystopianray> wubrgame1: you want to use tunnel through the school's proxy server into a remote machien to get unrestricted internet access?
[06:57] <Pici> wubrgame1: This is not on topic for Ubuntu support.
[06:57] <Shapeshifter> wubrgame1: do you mean vpn?
[06:58] <magnetron> wubrgame1: also, use google cache to get a cached version of a proxy list
[06:58] <wubrgame1> i know this is off topic...i don't know where else to go
[06:58] <nanbudh> Hi friends! could anyone help me out with disk problem? on bootup ubuntu shows my home directory(sda7) has errors. i want to run fsck manually, how can i unmount the home directory before running fsck? when i try to unmount it says device busy.
[06:58] <wubrgame1> thanks ! i'll leave !
[06:59] <tamereenslip> hi all
[06:59] <dystopianray> nanbudh: you need to stop any process that is accessing /home
[06:59] <ronnie> dystopianray: still no luck with this dvd :/
[06:59] <nanbudh> well currently i am running firefox and a terminal window. what could be accessing it? i dont have any idea?
[06:59] <tamereenslip> got a problem : i updated my kernel using the update manager, and after reboot, my laptop touchpad does'nt work anymore
[06:59] <Rageon> guys i wanna change rearrange Places and System to be inside of Applications and to rename Applications.. anyone point me in the right direction?
[06:59] <ronnie> dystopianray: i mean it is a dvd player and all
[07:00] <dystopianray> ronnie: try installing libxine-extracodecs and gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[07:00] <nanbudh> is there any way to check what is accessing it?
[07:00] <bruenig> Rageon, hahaha, in gnome? good luck
[07:00] <Rageon> serious?
[07:00] <bruenig> Rageon, such configurability is too confusing says gnome
[07:00] <ronnie> dystopianray: don't think totem uses those xine ones
[07:00] <tamereenslip> got a problem : i updated my kernel using the update manager, and after reboot, my laptop touchpad does'nt work anymore : does anyone have a clue ?
[07:00] <ronnie> nanbudh: yeah there is
[07:00] <Rageon> i see ubuntu screenshots all the time
[07:00] <dystopianray> ronnie: make sure you have the streamer one plugged in then
[07:00] <dystopianray> ronnie: i mean installed
[07:01] <sethk> bruenig, Rageon, It's not impossible to do.
[07:01] <bruenig> it is the way he describes it
[07:01] <dystopianray> nanbudh: lsof /home
[07:01] <tamereenslip> got a problem : i updated my kernel using the update manager, and after reboot, my laptop touchpad does'nt work anymore : does anyone have a clue ?
[07:01] <sethk> bruenig, Rageon, You have to edit the text files; there is no GUI application that does that for you
[07:01] <bruenig> sethk, no, he is talking about a complete different applet
[07:01] <sethk> tamereenslip, the kernel module for the touchpad is either not there, or is not loaded.
[07:01] <Rageon> which text files? are they uber hard to understand?
[07:01] <XXer> Could someone tell me how to format a flash drive?
[07:02] <sethk> bruenig, possibly I misunderstood, but with source code, anything is still possible if you have the time and inclination.  :)
[07:02] <ronnie> nanbudh: use lsof or fuser -m commands to see what is using that directory
[07:02] <tamereenslip> sethk : thanks, what can I do ?
[07:02] <tamereenslip> (without a mouse)
[07:02] <bruenig> places and administration aren't going away, doesn't mater what text file you edit. You can use the all in one menu but it doesn't let you rename or anything. yeah you can write your own applet like sethk says
[07:02] <dystopianray> XXer: you can use gparted to do it
[07:03] <Rageon> i only wanna move the "panel links" of these you understand this right?
[07:03] <boris_> !gutsy
[07:03] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[07:03] <Pici> Rageon: Where do you want to move them to?
[07:03] <AronRaavHex> is it possible to remove that bar that's located on the left of the window list? when i right click on it and select "remove from panel" the whole window list is removed
[07:03] <sethk> tamereenslip, if the old kernel is still available, boot it and capture the results of the command    lsmod     .  Then boot the new kernel, do the same command (lsmod), and compare the output.  The required module will show as loaded in the old kernel and will not appear in the list in the new kernel.
[07:03] <Whitor> Where do I enable the Hot Corners feature in compiz-fusion? (in ccsm?)
[07:03] <murlidhar_> when i sudo apt-get install tracker it says already installed . Where can i find the application in my system????
[07:03] <Rageon> i wanna move [Places]  & [System]  into [Applications]  and rename Applications to ""
[07:03] <sethk> tamereenslip, of course there may be more than one such module, but usually the name is sufficiently suggestive to allow you to figure out which is the one for the touchpad
[07:04] <Rageon> this is in the panel at the top of my screen..
[07:04] <nanbudh> ronnie: i used lsof command, there is a lot of output but i being a novice cannot make anything out of it
[07:04] <Whitor> murlidhar: try typing tracker & on the command line
[07:04] <Dr_Willis> murlidhar_ fire up synaptic and look at the installed files.
[07:04] <dystopianray> nanbudh: pastebin it
[07:04] <ronnie> dystopianray: already told him that heh, there also fuser -m and fuser -am
 Im vary new to linux and i dont know what that means
[07:04] <sm-afk> good morning. How do I suspend a feisty laptop ?
[07:04] <dystopianray> nanbudh: you do realise that you have to logout to unmount /home don't you?
[07:05] <ronnie> dystopianray: oops my bad I scrolled up :/
[07:05] <Rageon> any idea pici?
[07:05] <tamereenslip> sethk : thanks
[07:05] <dystopianray> XXer: if you press alt+f2 and type 'gksudo gparted' you'll be able to format your drive
[07:05] <ronnie> dystopianray: couldn't he just disown sudo su? and be root to unmount his /home?
[07:05] <nanbudh> shall i try the oh! i have to logout? ok but then i would have to log in thru some other user account,no? and that would also need to be an administrative account right?
[07:05] <dystopianray> ronnie: he'd have to logout from his user
[07:06] <Pici> Rageon: I think you can move the system menu inside the application menu using the menu editor, but afaik, you cant do the same with the places menu.
[07:06] <nanbudh> quite logical, i do havre to logout
[07:06] <nanbudh> *have
[07:06] <ronnie> dystopianray: nah there got to be a way not having to log out
[07:06] <nanbudh> really ronnie? how?
[07:06] <Pici> Rageon: There is an alternative menu panel called gnome-main-menu that is only one button, you could try installing and using that.
[07:06] <ronnie> dystopianray: I mean if he becomes root wouldn't that work?
[07:06] <nanbudh> ok this is my ;learning time
[07:06] <dystopianray> nanbudh: what do you want to do again, i can't remember? was it just fsck the drive?
[07:06] <XXer> thanks Ill give it a try
[07:06] <ronnie> dystopianray: I mean he has to anyway to use umount right
[07:06] <dystopianray> ronnie: no it wouldn't
[07:06] <murlidhar_> Dr_Willis: thnks i did not install the gui for tracker
[07:07] <dystopianray> ronnie: if the partition is being used it can't be unmounted
[07:07] <Shapeshifter> Does anyone know the channel of evolution or how a typical exchange url should look like? mine is like ex0.mydomain.com but I can't even click on "Authenticate"....
[07:07] <nanbudh> yeas fsck the sda7 disk, ubuntu gave message to do that manually cos the check failed during bootup, this is the second time it happened
[07:07] <Pici> Shapeshifter: I've found that you need to use the OWA address.
[07:07] <ronnie> dystopianray: so like become root and like.. kick the other account ?
[07:07] <sethk> Shapeshifter, I doubt you can't click on it.  Either it isn't in the list, or you click on it and nothing happens, but you can always click.  :)
[07:08] <dystopianray> ronnie: err you just can't do that
[07:08] <dissection> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my laptop. When I boot from the CD, first I get an error message saying "Could not allocate memory resource", then I get the Ubuntu loading screen, and then it says "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off".
[07:08] <ronnie> dystopianray: its root supposedly it can do all
[07:08] <Shapeshifter> sethk: No, it's greyed out
[07:08] <Rageon> aight pici ill give that a whirl.. do i need to uninstall my current one>/
[07:08] <dystopianray> ronnie: well you 'can' but killing his X session would lose him his root shell
[07:08] <Shapeshifter> sethk: or... ok, it was a joke huh ^^ :P
[07:08] <sethk> Shapeshifter, indeed.  So you can click on it.  Nothing happens, but you can click on it.  :)
[07:08] <Znortfl> Hello ubuntu people. Is there any way of quickly installing php-gtk2 via the repository or will I have to compile from source?
[07:08] <Rageon> look ike! your daddies a dolphin!
[07:08] <nanbudh> how about if i logout and then enter another account with  admn privileges?
[07:08] <dystopianray> nanbudh: if you do: sudo touch /forcefsck and reboot it'll fsck all your partitions on boot
[07:08] <ronnie> dystopianray: umm well use console and restart x?
[07:09] <Pici> Rageon: No, its just a different panel applet, you'll have to use the applet add thing to add it to your panel.
[07:09] <Shapeshifter> sethk: I met buttons that are unclickable beacause the mouse pointer jumps avay from them as soon as you hover over them :P
[07:09] <sethk> Znortfl, I haven't tried it with the latest release, but earlier releases have packages and I'm sure the latest also has packages.
[07:09] <dystopianray> ronnie: yeah that might work, it might require a direct root login though, not via sudo
[07:09] <nanbudh> dysto: it is doing so at bootup but failing at sda7 which i checked is my home
[07:09] <Rageon> ahh k cool, where would i grab this? Synaptic PM?
[07:09] <Znortfl> sethk, any special repo for that then? Synaptic cant find it for me
[07:09] <sethk> Shapeshifter, sounds like the old mouse chaser virus.  This was (many years ago now) a virus that made everything on your desktop move away from your mouse.  :)
[07:09] <nanbudh> so guys what do u suggest?
[07:10] <sethk> Znortfl, I'll see if my repo list has it.
[07:10] <ronnie> nanbudh: killall * then go root and umount that sucker
[07:10] <Pici> Rageon: I believe the package is calld gnome-main-menu in synaptic
[07:10] <ronnie> nanbudh: no clue what it will crash though :/
[07:10] <sm> how to suspend/sleep a feisty laptop ? anyone ?
[07:10] <Rageon> found it mate cheers
[07:10] <nanbudh> after i enter as another user account how do i use fsck comman? should it be like sudo fsck /dev/sda7   ?
[07:10] <dystopianray> nanbudh: logout, press ctrl+alt+f1, login, cd to /, and then use sudo to umount /home and fsck the partition
[07:10] <dystopianray> nanbudh: that might work
[07:10] <LadyNikon> no idea.. i dont use sleep or suspend
[07:10] <sris> Hi! I try to update from dapper drake to edgy, using the update manager, but i get the following error: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-security/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1), any ideas of what i should do fix it?
[07:10] <dystopianray> nanbudh: yes that'll do
[07:10] <Rageon> It also integrates with the Beagle search tool to provide search facilities
[07:10] <Rageon> from the start menu. It provides shortcuts for common system
[07:10] <Rageon> administration actions and integrates with network-manager for network
[07:10] <Rageon> status reporting.
[07:11] <RainCT> hi
[07:11] <ronnie> dystopianray: why would he need to cd to /
[07:11] <Rageon> ^^ sounds like malware? lol
[07:11] <Pici> Rageon:
[07:11] <RainCT> how can I let a script be run at startup with a certain user as owner?
[07:11] <sethk> dissection, the "job control turned off" message is harmless, you can ignore it.  The "not enough memory" message is more significant.  You can go ahead and try the install, but it may well fail due to lack of memory.  It's possible there is a BIOS glitch in the memory size reporting, and there really is enough memory.  In this case the install will work.
[07:11] <dystopianray> ronnie: becuase the default working directory is within /home, which will prevent an unmount
[07:11] <Whitor> In Compiz-Fusion, What is the plugin called that lets you have 'Hot Corners' ?
[07:11] <nanbudh> ok i shall try it now,,,see u in a bit
[07:11] <Rageon> yes pici?
[07:11] <ferronica> can i install windows Xp over ubuntu 7.04
[07:11] <dissection> sethk: But how do I start Ubuntu?
[07:11] <dystopianray> nanbudh: easiest way is to just boot the livecd and fsck from there
[07:11] <Rageon> :)
[07:11] <nanbudh> c u
[07:11] <sm> I expected sleep/suspend to be in the menu, like it was in previous releases
[07:11] <Pici> Rageon: er, its not malware...
[07:12] <Rageon> lol
[07:12] <Rageon> i was waiting for some huge speech lol
[07:12] <ronnie> dystopianray: hmm I don't recall that being a problem in past guess I jus never noticed
[07:12] <Pici> Rageon: I decided against it ;)
[07:12] <Rageon> haha :)
[07:12] <Rageon> so is this beagle thing already in my PC or what dude?
[07:13] <sethk> dissection, I think as a first option I'd try booting the alternate cd and doing a text mode install.  It takes less memory and might avoid the glitch.  I'm assuming that there actually is enough memory in the box.
[07:13] <Rageon> integrates with network-manager for network
[07:13] <Rageon> status reporting. - wtf is that? lol
[07:13] <Rageon> im just being paranoid
[07:13] <Rageon> soz, *taps chest
[07:13] <dissection> sethk: I have 2GB RAM. Its waiting for me to type something..
[07:13] <cvolante> cavoma@hotmail.com
[07:14] <Pici> Rageon: It just has a little icon on it that shows the status of your network, but its pretty sleek.  Its a Gnome application, you know, the same people who made the entire desktop environment.  Its safe.  I wouldn't suggest it otherwise.
[07:14] <xeer> i'm trying to use /dev/mapper but it says it's not found. this is suppose to be a directory correct?
[07:14] <Pici> Rageon: And if you don't like it, you can always remove it later.
[07:14] <razer> Hallo... how do i stop the grafic so i cane install driver to my grafic card?
[07:14] <dystopianray> xeer: that's right
[07:14] <sethk> dissection, 2 gb is (obviously) much more than enough.  Try the text mode install from the alternate cd.  You can start the install program from the command line, but your chances of success are (IMO) considerably greater with the alternate cd text mode install.
[07:14] <Pici> razer: `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop`
[07:14] <Rageon> cool, soz man im still a windoze monkey, hella paranoid about everything i download lol.. 50% or more has virus or malware
[07:14] <Rageon> (in windoze)
[07:15] <ferronica> Pici: hi
[07:15] <ronnie> Pici: lot of gnome apps all over place, I use xfce or fluxbox though, what does the app do by the way?
[07:15] <razer> Pici. Thanx :)
[07:15] <xeer> dystopianray, i'm using dmraid. i have my fakeraid active and i have an identifier for the set. i don't know why it's not showing up in the mapper
[07:15] <ferronica> Pici: i want to install xp over ubuntu is it possible?
[07:15] <dissection> sethk: Alternate CD? I have only 1 CD.
[07:15] <Pici> ronnie: Its just a applet replacement for the applications/places/admin menu
[07:15] <sethk> dissection, download the other one.
[07:15] <Pici> ferronica: Yes.
[07:16] <Rageon> pici i downloaded it, how i add it?
[07:16] <pike_> ferronica: you want to dual boot xp and ubuntu or install xp and run it virtually inside ubuntu?
[07:16] <ronnie> pici: ah lot of menu replacement things for kde, I was looking over those before
[07:16] <Pici>  Rageon : right click on your panel, select add to panel and search that window for something that says main menu.
[07:16] <ferronica> pike: ubuntu is already installed ,
[07:16] <murlidhar> ! ubuntu alternate  | dissection
[07:16] <ferronica> pike: now i want to install Xp Pro.
[07:17] <Pici> ferronica: And remove Ubuntu?
[07:17] <ferronica> Pici: no
[07:17] <tamereenslip> sethk, I rebooted using my old kernel and my touchpad still doesn't work, it may be anything i've done before rebboting (i had not rebooted my system for weeks)
[07:17] <dystopianray> ferronica: things are easier if you install xp before ubuntu
[07:17] <Rageon> leet dude now i can just remove all the other stuff yea??
[07:17] <OuT> hi ;)
[07:17] <ron11> hey guys, I just installed ndiswrapper and lost sound, is there any relation there? what can I do to fix it?
[07:17] <ronnie> ferronica: try wine, virtualbox, and themes. Its rather roomy
[07:17] <Rageon> rofl hi out
[07:17] <OuT> i think this will look good ;) http://youtube.com/watch?v=vLUXjXo7MuU
[07:17] <OuT> it is ultimate ubuntu :)
[07:17] <OuT> hi
[07:18] <ferronica> dystopianray: then i have to format HDD
[07:18] <jonbue> question...whenever i log out of my account the screen goes black at the login in what could be causing this?
[07:18] <pike_> ferronica: it is very easy but keep in mind xp will overwrite the mbr so youll need to fix that with livecd after install. 1) boot to livecd and use gparted to resize and free up disk space 2) install xp to free space 3) recover mbr
[07:18] <Rageon> it worked, champion, thanks pici :D and they said it couldnt be done HAH that was simple!
[07:18] <OuT> sorry for that shit what i was talking ;)
[07:18] <ferronica> dystopianray: Is there any way to backup all settings
[07:18] <Pici> !ohmy | OuT
[07:18] <ubotu> OuT: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:18] <OuT> i am a noob in irc ;)
[07:18] <sethk> tamereenslip, Sounds like the upgrade modified your X configuration file.  But you said you updated the kernel.  Just updating the kernel doesn't change the X configuration.  Is it possible that you manually loaded the module for the touch pad and forgot that you did it?
[07:18] <dystopianray> ferronica: you can still install xp afterwards, make a backup of your MBR though
[07:18] <Rageon> yer i was thinking about putting gamers ubuntu on my p3 600 for the loungeroom for the kids to play with lol
[07:18] <amygdala> is it possible to download ubuntu as a dvd instead of a cd?
[07:18] <pike_> ferronica: unless you need xp for gaming id install and run virtually
[07:18] <tarelerulz> You don't have to install  windows before windows.  In fact I have windows on second hard drive and Ubuntu on my first hard drive and ubuntu when I installed it figured all that out
[07:18] <jonbue> yes amy
[07:19] <stefg> !download | amygdala
[07:19] <ubotu> amygdala: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[07:19] <ferronica> dystopianray: i dont wanna to format hdd :(
[07:19] <amygdala> stefg: no in other words?
[07:19] <ron11> Can someone help me get my sound working? its being a real pain, I even compiled the new alsa-drvers/utils/libs/and oss
[07:20] <ronnie> OuT: actually that looks like fluxbuntu with compiz fusion. I like how they managed to get google earth going with that theme so well though
[07:20] <sethk> tarelerulz, linux has no problems running from any drive or partition.  However, windows in some cases won't run unless it is on the first partition of the first disk.  It's not related to the order of installation, rather it is related to the location of the windows install.  It doesn't always happen (windows refusing to run unless it's the first partition on the first disk), but it does happen, and not infrequently.
[07:20] <flush> yo
[07:20] <flush> how can i know whats the max writing speed of my burner?
[07:20] <dystopianray> ferronica: you don't need to format your hdd to install another OS
[07:20] <flush> is there a command that can show it
[07:20] <ferronica> dystopianray: then what to do
[07:20] <ron11> flush: it should say right on it
[07:20] <stefg> amygdala: i thought there's  DVD download link, too. So it exists, but don't know if that's really useful

[07:20] <flush> no its too old
[07:20] <tamereenslip> sethk, I rebooted using my old kernel and my touchpad still doesn't work, it may be anything i've done before rebboting (i had not rebooted my system for weeks)
[07:20] <nanbudh> dystopianray: i am stuck, i just realised(after logging as a diff admn user )that /home directory is  still mounted- i was thinking that /home/user01 was the one i needed to umount but i was wrong its neither /home/user01 nor /home/user02 but /home which is to be umounted. GUYS i am stuck. plz help
[07:20] <ron11> flush: than I would assume no more than 2x
[07:21] <flush> fark
[07:21] <amygdala> stefg, whou wouldn' that be usefull?
[07:21] <ronnie> OuT: what theme is it anyway?
[07:21] <dystopianray> nanbudh: boot the livecd and fsck from there
[07:21] <jonbue> whenever i log out of my account the screen goes black at the login in what could be causing this?
[07:21] <xeer> how can i get dmraid to map my raid set to the /dev/mapper?
[07:21] <ron11> flush: if its really that old, thats the only safe bet
[07:21] <Pici> nanbudh: You can fsck from the livecd.
[07:21] <amygdala> stefg, i just need to install ubuntu fast and i've only got dvds at home
[07:21] <Rageon> awesome pici its independant for each desktop too!
[07:21] <flush> im using gnomebaker and when it asks for speed i dont know..
[07:21] <Nielssonnich> hey
[07:21] <stefg> amygdala: you'reususally downloading 4 GB of outdated software....
[07:22] <flush> what happens if i put 8x and it doesnt support, gonna scrap the cd or just downgrade to the max speed of the device
[07:22] <OuT> did u know something about programms for linux were i can see all dada from a handy ?
[07:22] <ferronica> dystopianray: then what to do to install Xp
[07:22] <bill__> nanbudh, umount /home   ?
[07:22] <ron11> flush: it will just notify you
[07:22] <dystopianray> ferronica: boot the xp cd and follow the prompts
[07:22] <OuT> or a programm to change the simlock :) ?
[07:22] <nanbudh> hmm, but i donot have live cd right now, i can arrange later but not right now, is there any other way? when i bootup and the automatic fsck fails it gives me a prompt as root(if i am not wrong) should/ could i give fsck command from there?
[07:22] <Pici> OuT: What?
[07:22] <flush> k
[07:22] <amygdala> stefg, let me rephrase the question then, is it possible to install ubuntu from a dvdr?
[07:22] <ron11> flush: just make sure your medium is rated for whagtever speed you chose
[07:22] <OuT> or is this no thema for this chanel :)
[07:22] <ferronica> dystopianray: it will format my hdd :(
[07:22] <flush> yea kk
[07:22] <OuT> i got a sony ericson handy
[07:22] <dystopianray> ferronica: it won't, if you have free space it will isntall onto into that
[07:23] <OuT> a friend tells me he can turn off simlock with linux
[07:23] <nanbudh> bill: it say device busy, home cannot be umounted
[07:23] <stefg> amygdala: of course.... these drives read CD-R's too
[07:23] <ferronica> dystopianray: i have 40GB hdd
[07:23] <murlidhar> ferronica:  give the structure of your hard disk to dystopianray
[07:23] <ferronica> dystopianray: only single partition
[07:23] <amygdala> stefg, it's the media that im asking about, not the reader
[07:23] <OuT> i what u to ask : do u know a programm for ubuntu to change simlock ?
[07:23] <dystopianray> ferronica: resize it to make additional space
[07:23] <bill__> nanbudh, boot single user, log in as root
[07:23] <ferronica> dystopianray: how ?
[07:23] <dystopianray> ferronica: boot the livecd and run gparted
[07:23] <ferronica> dystopianray: gparted
[07:23] <ferronica> dystopianray: okay
[07:24] <nanbudh> bill: what do u mean by single user?
[07:24] <ron11> can anyone help me? I don't have any sound, I'm using an Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03) sound card in a laptop, I just installed ndiswrapper and now my sound isnt working at all
[07:24] <bill__> nanbudh, what do you want to do once you have it umounted?
[07:24] <murlidhar> ferronica: remember to resize from livecd only not from installed one
[07:24] <nanbudh> and if i know correctly we cant log in as root in ubunutu right?
[07:24] <tarelerulz> I have 3 computer now and they are all networked. I can ssh into them all ,but I can't vnc 2 of them.  I ssh into one computer and run vncserver and put out username-desktop:1 .  when I try to use that in vncserver it don't work. SO I use its ip and that don't work either ?
[07:24] <dystopianray> nanbudh: just boot the livecd and fsck from there
[07:24] <nanbudh> run fsck. my sda7 has errors
[07:24] <amygdala> stefg, i only have writeable dvd discs, and i dont really care about the download size, im just asking if it's possible, or if i have to buy a empty cdr disc
[07:25] <nanbudh> and sda7 is home
[07:25] <ferronica> murlidhar: then i have delete some movies
[07:25] <ferronica> murlidhar: there is only 2 GB left :(
[07:25] <Pici> nanbudh: Boot from the livecd... it doesnt mount any drives, then you can fsck.
[07:25] <jonbue> yes amy u can use a dvdr
[07:25] <ferronica> murlidhar: out of 40GB
[07:25] <dystopianray> ferronica: yes you'll need to free up some space
[07:26] <Rageon> anyone tell me how to speed up the autohide jump out in panels?
[07:26] <Rageon> (gnome)
[07:26] <bill__> nanbudh, in your grub/lilo boot prompt, add "init=/bin/bash" to your kernel command line, then you'll be at a root prompt
[07:26] <FFighter> hello
[07:26] <ferronica> dystopianray: okay thanx for your kind help :)
[07:26] <FFighter> does anyone know a FOSS similar to Advanced File ORganizer for WIndows?
[07:26] <nanbudh> guys tell me this, when automatic filecheck fails, it gives me a prompt as root(i think), what should i type to run fsck on /dev/sda7 from there?
[07:26] <murlidhar> ferronica: free some more space
[07:26] <stefg> amygdala: you can't burn a CD-R iso image to a DVD-Medium ...won't work, won't boot. so either google for some third party ubuntu DVD editition or buy some CD-R's
[07:26] <bill__> fsck /dev/sda7
[07:26] <FFighter> that allows you to create a db of all the removable media you have and search for files in this db ?
[07:27] <nanbudh> bill: ok i shall reboot now and give it a try
[07:27] <nanbudh> c u guys and thanks a lot
[07:27] <amygdala> stefg, then the answer to my first question is no ;) thanks
[07:27] <bill__> if that fails, your disk might really be bad
[07:27] <stefg> amygdala: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/dvd/current/ here we go
[07:27] <nanbudh> bill: it says press control+d to bootup anyway and i do that and everything runs fine
[07:27] <Pici> stefg: Thats the Gutsy DVD....
[07:28] <nanbudh> bill:god knows what is happeneing
[07:28] <Dacke> Hello All
[07:28] <amygdala> stefg, ah, wonderfull, thanks
[07:28] <Dacke> Is this the support channel?
[07:28] <FFighter> any suggestions?
[07:28] <Pici> amygdala: Thats for the testing version, you probably don't want that.
[07:28] <FFighter> Dacke, did you read the channel welcome message ?
[07:28] <bill__> try fsck -y /dev/sda7
[07:28] <nanbudh> ok

[07:29] <Dacke> Sorry do that
[07:29] <FFighter> Dacke, ok, np - and yeah this is the support channel
[07:29] <LadyNikon> Dacke: type /topic
[07:29] <jonbue> whenever i log out of my account the screen goes black at the login in what could be causing this?
[07:29] <Dacke> Great, thanks for that tip, I'm in the right place then.  I need some help with my gProFTPD server.
[07:30] <stefg> Pici: that built will be an official beta in a couple of hours, so it's reasonable to try that
[07:30] <murlidhar> Dacke: just ask ur question and please have some patience
[07:30] <Dacke> When I attempt to activate my server I get the following error "- Fatal: TLSRSACertificateFile: '/etc/gproftpd/gproftpd.pem' does not exist on line 53 of '/etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf'"

[07:30] <PureEvilGeek> i'm trying out 7.04 on my laptop (using the live cd) and its going extremely (and i mean extremely) slow. what might be causing this?
[07:31] <tarelerulz> sethk , my system has two hard drive and windows install to the first partition of the second hard drive  and Ubuntu is on the first hard drive and the first partion .  I would just say install windows on the first partition of hard drive . then take that hard drive out and then put other hard drive in and install ubuntu on it  and have the second hard drive (windows one) as slave and have other hard drive with Ubuntu on it as the ma
[07:31] <PureEvilGeek> the laptop has 256mb of ram 1.5ghz cpu
[07:31] <Duende> I tried with smc ez connect and it didnt worked
[07:32] <FFighter> Isn't there something like Katalog for Gnome ?
[07:32] <xeer> how can i get dmraid to map my raid set to the /dev/mapper?
[07:32] <panosru> can anyone help me with kmobiletools?
[07:33] <Rageon> hey can anyone tell me how to speed up the gnome panel autohide?
[07:33] <punzada> new compiz update is nice
[07:33] <bill__> xeer,  man dmsetup
[07:33] <dissecti1n> shipit.ubuntu.com does not send the alternate CD?
[07:34] <Pici> Dacke: You might want to ask that in #proftpd, its a bit too specific for #ubuntu
[07:34] <Dacke> Ok thank you.
[07:34] <stefg> PureEvilGeek: not enough Ram and a slow CD drive
[07:35] <PureEvilGeek> 24x cd
[07:35] <PureEvilGeek> stefg: if i install ubuntu on the hard drive will this issue still be there?
[07:35] <Znortfl> php5-cli wont work for me, it complains about a "busfout" (dutch for "Bus error"). How can I fix this?
[07:36] <stefg> PureEvilGeek: no, because it runs from Harddisk then, and doesn't have a compressed filesystem anymore
[07:36] <stefg> PureEvilGeek: what are your systems spec ?
[07:36] <Rageon> hey can anyone tell me how to speed up the gnome panel autohide?
[07:36] <bladefistx2> hi all
[07:37] <stefg> Rageon: look in gconf-editor
[07:37] <PureEvilGeek> stefg: i don't remember them all exactly but i believe 256mb of ram 1.5ghz cpu and a 60gb hard drive (laptop)
[07:37] <radioman_> ..it is posible to hide all task bar, and not to leave a litle ?
[07:37] <bladefistx2> anyone bored enough to help a newbie with a small question?
[07:37] <murlidhar> PureEvilGeek: should work would have been better if 512mb of ram
[07:38] <bill__> bladefistx2, don't ask to ask :)

[07:38] <David|V_> question, on the xfce what's the configuration tool gnome-sound-properties ?
[07:38] <hak5fan> Hi... Does ntfs-3g provide safe writeing to ntfs partitions?
[07:38] <PureEvilGeek> i do know that both my wired and wireless ethernet work, and its an nvidia video card so hardware wise i should be set
[07:38] <FFighter> this channel is pure chaos sometimes
[07:38] <stefg> PureEvilGeek: 256 MB RAM is the low end.... that's why it's so slow. you might consider a RAM upgrade or going for xubuntu. The Live CD-installer might die from lack of RAM, so i'd use the alternat CD anyway
[07:38] <bill__> hak5fan, that's what i hear ...
[07:38] <PureEvilGeek> hak5fan: yes 1.0 has been released which is very stable
[07:38] <Dragon64> hak5fan......yes
[07:39] <Duende> I need a wireless usb card for ubuntu, any sugestions?
[07:39] <PureEvilGeek> stefg: xubuntu is ?
[07:39] <hak5fan> and it doesn't mess up accsess rights of other files allready on the disk?
[07:39] <PureEvilGeek> just a different installer or more?
[07:39] <LjL> !xubuntu
[07:39] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels

[07:39] <ubotu> PureEvilGeek: please see above
[07:40] <PureEvilGeek> oh. na i'm not changing from gnome since i'm use to it. i will just use xp which runs fine
[07:40] <bill__> PureEvilGeek, xfce is a lighter-weight window manager that uses less memory than gnome

[07:40] <bill__> PureEvilGeek, xfce is very similar to gnome
[07:40] <Duende> thanks pike, any sugestion on a good choice?

[07:51] <_tom__> i just copied my main partition over and changed grub to boot to it, but now, when I try to run gparted, first, I cant see any more processes or create new ones, then I basically have to hit ctrl+alt+del

[07:58] <ubotu> cyph3x: 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
[07:58] <_tom__> hwilde usually when i add something to resolv.conf it immediately changes.. why do you believe that your computer doesn't know what dns server you're using?
[07:58] <ajisin> how to install .dmg files in ubuntu
[07:58] <CoasterMaster> ajisin, .dmg files are for Mac OS X
[07:59] <sahil> cyp3x, wha was impressive?
[07:59] <hwilde> _tom__, because I can ping the ip but not the hostname?
[07:59] <Stormx2> test
[07:59] <Stormx2> Hm.
[07:59] <cyph3x> the uber fast response heh
[07:59] <ajisin> oops
[07:59] <ErikHK> I asked before if I could resize the root partition (/), and swap, I successfully resized the swap with gparted (thanks ubotu), but I obviously couldn't change the size of /, since it was mounted, is it even possible? Do I have to use a live CD? In that case, how?
[07:59] <_tom__> well, you added your dns servers, and you cant use the hostname, but by hostname, do you mean fully qualified domain name?
[08:00] <_tom__> or is it a local dns
[08:00] <Rageon> whats ubuntus version of metacity?
[08:00] <sbn> Any one who has expiernces with setting up a Realtek RTL8187B ?
[08:00] <marx2k> Rageon: metacity :)
[08:00] <Rageon> sweet :)
[08:00] <hwilde> _tom__, I mean that I can ping 10.1.3.97 directly, and I can ping the dns server 10.1.3.2 and 10.1.3.3, but I cannot ping the hostname mail.memorialsb.org by hostname which is IP  10.1.3.97
[08:00] <cyph3x> whats metacity?
[08:01] <hwilde> _tom__, so I edited /etc/resolv.conf and added those two dns servers, and then /etc/init.d/networking restart,  but I still cannot ping via hostname
[08:01] <Rageon> *hold back obscene remark
[08:01] <MasterShrek> hwilde, /etc/hosts
[08:01] <marx2k> :D
[08:02] <MasterShrek> cyph3x, its the window manager that gnome uses
[08:02] <hwilde> MasterShrek, what about /etc/hosts ?
[08:02] <cyph3x> ahh
[08:02] <_tom__> hwilde: this dns server is on your local network?
[08:02] <hwilde> _tom__, yes I guess so.  I can ping the dns servers
[08:02] <MasterShrek> hwilde, at the top, put the ip followed by the hostname
[08:02] <_tom__> hwilde: well are you sure the dns server is configured properly? or is it someone else's business to do that
[08:03] <marx2k> !metacity
[08:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about metacity - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:03] <marx2k> wow
[08:03] <MasterShrek> !info metacity
[08:03] <_tom__> because i am about stumped
[08:03] <ubotu> metacity: A lightweight GTK2 based Window Manager. In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.18.2-0ubuntu1.1 (feisty), package size 397 kB, installed size 784 kB
[08:04] <marx2k> WHat does KDE use for a window manager?
[08:04] <[nrx] > X?
[08:04] <marx2k> I think its KWin
[08:04] <marx2k> !info kwin
[08:04] <ubotu> kwin: the KDE window manager. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.6-0ubuntu20.2 (feisty), package size 1025 kB, installed size 3328 kB
[08:04] <MasterShrek> kwm i think
[08:04] <marx2k> yeo
[08:04] <hwilde> _tom__, it is someone else's business, but it's a massive domain, so I am sure it is correct.
[08:04] <MasterShrek> or kwin i spose
[08:04] <marx2k> err yep
[08:05] <hwilde> _tom__, it is like it is not reloading /etc/resolv.conf
[08:05] <sahil> cyph3, is there a way to mount an image with a program, and without having to type out all the code
[08:05] <marx2k> I seem to have fallen in love with KDE over Gnome
[08:05] <marx2k> sahil: /etc/fstab is the config file for that
[08:06] <MasterShrek> sahil, no, you need root privileges
[08:06] <sahil> argh
[08:06] <MasterShrek> dont put that in /etc/fstab
[08:06] <sahil> thanx
[08:06] <sahil> ???
[08:06] <bruenig> security reasons
[08:06] <sahil> oh ok
[08:06] <MasterShrek> only put things in /etc/fstab that you want mounted every time you boot
[08:06] <marx2k> oh I thought he asked what was the config for mounting images
[08:06] <marx2k> images/drives
[08:06] <bruenig> he means mounting isos and such on occasion I assume, not always
[08:07] <bruenig> you can write scripts to do it and set up sudoer exceptions if you want

[08:07] <Rageon> how do i get more of the things i can Add to panels?
[08:07] <Rageon> like the eyes and the fish
[08:07] <Rageon> n stuff
[08:07] <MasterShrek> Rageon, right click the panel
[08:07] <bruenig> yeah but that requires a password
[08:07] <sahil> thanx marx2k
[08:07] <marx2k> no problem
[08:07] <Rageon> rand deeen
[08:08] <Rageon> :D
[08:09] <Rageon> then what MasterShrek

[08:09] <bogor> what is the best vpn client for linux . The vpn server is windows & uses l2tp
[08:09] <MasterShrek> search synaptic for panel applets
[08:10] <faust_> Hey guys. Got a slight problem here. Installed Ubuntu for the first time after changing from ATi to nVidia today, and I can't seem to find the nvidia card anywhere. Up and running, graphics displaying, it's just that when I go to Restricted Drivers Manager to get the real juice going, it just says "Your computer does not need restricted drivers" and quits.
[08:10] <faust_> Thinking the card isn't detected right or something.
[08:10] <faust_> In my recently ditched gentoo install, xorg just detected it as "unknown device"
[08:10] <faust_> Can't find a decent nvidia howto for Feisty either, since they all say use the restricted driver manager..
[08:10] <MasterShrek> faust_, i think u have to apt-get install nvidia-glx
[08:11] <faust_> MasterShrek, those are the proprietary drivers, or the opensource ones?
[08:11] <marx2k> faust: type in terminal "lspci | grep VGA" and give me the output
[08:11] <Ax-Ax>  Nu har vi hrdare regler mot spam ocks, s passa dig!!
[08:11] <MasterShrek> either that or install the driver from nvidias website
[08:11] <MasterShrek> im not sure faust_ i use the ones from nvidia's site
[08:11] <faust_> marx2k: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Unknown device 0400 (rev a1)
[08:11] <FFighter> Hey, is there something like AutoHotKey for linux ?
[08:12] <marx2k> faust: update your pci listing
[08:12] <marx2k> I forgot how to do that though
[08:12] <bogor> faust: they are proprietery packaged for ur convinence
[08:12] <Montaro> Can anyone assist in configuring xorg on ubuntu to display *ONLY* on a tv (via s-video) on an S3 Savage3D card? I've tried every combination of xorg.conf I can think of and its still not working :(
[08:12] <Sander_NL> hallo
[08:12] <Montaro> Or should I ask in an xorg orientated channel more so than ubuntu?
[08:12] <Znortfl> Anybody a solution to the problem: apache keeps offering php files for download. What am I doing wrong?
[08:13] <faust_> Thanks guys :D
[08:13] <Kurlon> Ok, so 'Hardware Information' picks up on this Dell's CS4237B sound card, but I'll be damned if I can coax the module to load.
[08:13] <Lattyware> Anyone know if there are Linux drivers for using the xbox 360 wireless controller and wireless headset with the Wireless gaming receiver?
[08:13] <bogor> Znortfl: do you have php modules for httpd installed
[08:13] <faust_> marx2k, think I found it. update-pciids?
[08:13] <Znortfl> bogor: I think so. How can I check that?
[08:14] <marx2k> faust: you got it
[08:14] <marx2k> sudo update-pciids
[08:14] <faust_> Definately. Reads "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8600 GTS (rev a1)" now. :D
[08:14] <MasterShrek> Lattyware, i dont think so for 360, but the kernel does have a driver for the regular xbox controller
[08:14] <marx2k> :)
[08:14] <Lattyware> MasterShrek: Yeah, know about that, just wondering if the 360 stuff was done.
[08:14] <bogor> Znortfl: look for or grep for php in the section that contains lots of loadmodules in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
[08:15] <MasterShrek> i dunno, it would be worth a google search i spose
[08:15] <faust_> Still says "Your hardware does not need restricted drivers" though, so I think I'll go the manual route from here. Thanks anyway :D
[08:15] <faust_> Back soon to ask more if this doesn't work :D
[08:15] <bogor> Znortfl: i am sure of the path. But file would be named http.conf
[08:15] <CoasterMaster> !iso
[08:15] <bogor> Znortfl: sorry httpd.conf
[08:15] <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.
[08:15] <Moodles> i put a new drive (sata) in my linux machine recently, and ive rebooted fine afew times with it in.. it now gets stuck initializing the new drive.. afterawhile i get a prompt saying /dev/sda2 doesnt exist (where ubuntu is installed)
[08:16] <[nrx] > ./etc/httpd/httpd.conf
[08:16] <[nrx] > usually
[08:16] <Znortfl> bogor: I dont seem to have a /etc/httpd directory
[08:16] <Moodles> the new drive is fine, i put it in my main machine and its working perfectly
[08:16] <Whitor> I'm looking to enable the cube-atlantis plugin... The info I've found on how to enable that feature simply says to install the Compiz-fusion-plugins-extra package. Well, I've done this but I still see no cube-atlantis plugin available in ccsm :(
[08:16] <[nrx] > try "locate httpd.conf"
[08:16] <Montaro> Znortfl, it would be apache2.conf and in /etc/apache2/
[08:16] <[nrx] > ah yeah
[08:16] <[nrx] > sorry, forgot, ubuntu ;p
[08:17] <MasterShrek> Moodles, when does that prompt come up? right after grub?
[08:17] <Znortfl> Montaro, bogor: the *.load and  *.conf files in mods-enabled are included
[08:17] <marx2k> Whitor: restart ccsm possibly?
[08:17] <marx2k> or rather restart compiz?
[08:18] <Whitor> marx2k: Nope... did a reboot to be safe
[08:18] <Montaro> Znortfl, ideally you should just do: a2enmod php5
[08:18] <Moodles> MasterShrek: grubs loads fine, its about 30 seconds into loading when it halts.. and then about 3 minutes later i get the prompt
[08:18] <Pici> !effects
[08:18] <shiner> hi
[08:18] <bogor> Znortfl: Is there a php directive in apache2.conf
[08:18] <ubotu> For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[08:18] <Znortfl> Montaro: "This module is already enabled"
[08:18] <Montaro> Znortfl, dpkg-reconfigure it
[08:18] <bogor> Znortfl:, BTW, how did you install php
[08:19] <Whitor> No one is alive in #ubuntu-effects ... thats why I'm asking here
[08:19] <falstaff> Can somebody check this: Open CompizConfig, Cube rotation (in german Wrfel drehen) set screencorner bottomleft for turn left and bottom right for turn right
[08:19] <Znortfl> bogor: it includes a php.load file which refers to libphp5.so
[08:19] <falstaff> for me it does not work!
[08:19] <PriceChild> Whitor, not an excuse
[08:19] <PriceChild> !patience | Whitor
[08:19] <shiner> could anyone help me: i need to get the uuid from my 2nd partition. I googled already but it didnt work on my ubuntu.
[08:19] <Znortfl> bogor: I installed apache2, php5, and libapache2-mod-php5
[08:19] <Pici> !uuid | shiner
[08:19] <ubuntu> hi, anybody can help me?
[08:19] <MasterShrek> Moodles, if i had to guess id say its not loading the sata drivers at boot, dont ask me why, or how to fix it but that may be something to look into
[08:19] <ubotu> Whitor: 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
[08:19] <marx2k> shiner: why not just use literal /dev/* labels?
[08:19] <ubotu> shiner: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  sudo blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[08:19] <soothsayer> What features does the medibuntu ffmpeg package have that are not present in the official version?
[08:20] <PriceChild> soothsayer, plays more codecs, that can not be distributed with ubuntu for legal reasons
[08:20] <shiner> marx2k: didn does his job :(
[08:20] <Q_Continuum> Keyring Manager password (I forgot it) any way I can brute-force it with a keyword list?
[08:20] <bogor> Znortfl: Was it through apt-get or synaptic or deb or tar.gz or how ?
[08:20] <Znortfl> bogor: through apt-get
[08:20] <soothsayer> PriceChild: For example? Are the differences listed or documented anywhere?
[08:20] <Moodles> when i disconnect the drive, the machine boots like normal
[08:20] <ubuntu> i was upgrading my ubuntu sistem but when i reboot the PC, the system can't start the grub because it have an Error 35 or similar...
[08:20] <Znortfl> bogor: Now I cant reload apache. It complains about not being able to bind an address
[08:20] <marx2k> shiner: I still dont get the rationale behind UUID
[08:21] <PriceChild> soothsayer, can't say off hand sorry, if you get the source for the medibuntu, you can see the build time options in debian/rules
[08:21] <jimmacdonald> can I just say that the people who develop Wine are A$$holes.
[08:21] <Znortfl> bogor: "No listening sockets available. Shutting down"
[08:21] <Whitor> Yes yes, I know all this. I am patient. I was simply stating that I had already asked in #ubuntu-effects. No need to bash me for asking a question
[08:21] <shiner> i need it for my fstab
[08:21] <soothsayer> PriceChild: Okay I will take a look
[08:21] <marx2k> shiner: yeah but I dont see the advantage of using UUID over the old /dev/* method
[08:21] <shiner> marx2k: sudo blkid did his job :)
[08:21] <ubuntu> now I am on a livecd
[08:21] <LewisSharp> I have a problem. I used synactic to install both TCL8.4 and Eggdrop 1.6.18. When I try to configure the eggdrop it doesn't reconnize TCL is installed. It ask me to specify two path to two file, libtcl.so (which my closest file is actually libtcl8.4.so.0) and tcl.h which I can't find within TCL installation path. Anyone knows where I can get help on this? (google didn't help much).
[08:21] <MasterShrek> i dont know either marx2k, i changed mine back to /dev
[08:21] <bogor> Znortfl: My guess is You probably have screwed up your apache2.conf
[08:21] <marx2k> same here, MasterShrek
[08:22] <Znortfl> bogor: and can I "reset" it somehow?
[08:22] <MasterShrek> it makes fstab look very cluttered
[08:22] <shiner> marx2k: me to not ^^ but with /dev* it didnt work
[08:22] <soothsayer> marx2k: The rationale is that physical disks are always correctly identified, even when they are connected differently
[08:22] <bogor> Znortfl yes sure
[08:22] <gautad1> How do I determine if a package say php is installed from the console
[08:22] <MasterShrek> ah i spose that makes sense soothsayer
[08:22] <Znortfl> bogor: dpkg-reconfigure does... nothing
[08:22] <marx2k> soothsayer: so its mainly for removable/hotswappables?
[08:22] <shiner> marx2k: perhaps i forgot something but i dont think so
[08:23] <bogor> Znortfl one easy & dirty way of doing it is through remove & reinstall the AMP stack
[08:23] <marx2k> shiner: "df -Th" should show you your /dev labels
[08:23] <PriceChild> gautad1, apt-cache policy <package name>
[08:23] <soothsayer> marx2k: Well for any change in physical connectivity (master -> slave IDE for example), at the least. There may be other cases also
[08:23] <Znortfl> bogor: so "sudo apt-get remove apache2" ?
[08:23] <bogor> Znortfl I dont think there is dkg-reconfigure for this
[08:23] <gautad1> PriceChild: thx
[08:23] <marx2k> soothsayer: I see.. that makes sense
[08:23] <soothsayer> gautad1:  dpkg -l PACKAGE
[08:23] <marx2k> so the UUID is a hash of what? the drive's serial ID?
[08:24] <bogor> Znortflyes. Provided you dont have impotant info under /var/www
[08:24] <bogor> Znortflyes
[08:24] <gautad1> soothsayer: thx
[08:24] <bogor> Znortfl : yes
[08:24] <soothsayer> marx2k: Sorry, I don't know how it is generated.
[08:24] <Znortfl> bogor: I'll try that now
[08:24] <marx2k> ok
[08:24] <soothsayer> gautad1: np
[08:25] <shiner> marx2k: now its working
[08:25] <godzirra> heya guys.. I'm trying to install with my alt install cd, and I keep getting "-bash: no job control in this shell" and it fails to start X.
[08:26] <boris_> how can i make a command that will be executed every time i login ?
[08:26] <bogor> IS there any vpn client software for ubuntu where the server is a windows one & uses l2tp
[08:26] <mac__> where else can I find similar like wanda the fish ?
[08:27] <Znortfl> bogor: I reinstalled apache2, did /etc/init.d/apache2 start and now my localhost is gone :P
[08:27] <marx2k> shiner: excellent :)
[08:27] <godzirra> Anyone have any ideas?
[08:27] <mac__> where else can I find similar like wanda the fish ? the fish that appear at panel?
[08:27] <marx2k> boris: edit your sessions
[08:27] <MasterShrek> mac search google, this is not the place for questions like that
[08:28] <shiner> marx2k: Thank you very much!
[08:28] <marx2k> shiner: no problem :)
[08:29] <shiner> bye

[08:29] <bayziders> I installed the madwifi drivers and my macbook wifi still isn't working. I don't even see like a make wifi network or and thing wireless related in the network settings. What am I doing wrong?
[08:29] <bogor> Znortfl: probably you have not strted the service
[08:30] <MasterShrek> bayziders, type iwconfig in a terminal and see what comes up
[08:30] <Znortfl> bogor: I did, I ran /etc/init.d/apache2 start
[08:30] <bogor> what does /var/log/apache2 or httpd/error say ?
[08:30] <bayziders> masterShrek: No wireless extensions for lo and eth0
[08:31] <godzirra> Anyone have any ideas?
[08:31] <MasterShrek> bayziders, what kinda network card is it?
[08:31] <Znortfl> bogor: okay, I had to add ServerName. But we're back to start now. No php support
[08:31] <bayziders> MasterShrek: Airport extreme I believe

[08:31] <Inglor> hello, I'm having trouble with swiftweasel and flash
[08:32] <godzirra> I just want to freaking get ubuntu installed.
[08:32] <MasterShrek> Inglor, are u running 64 bit?
[08:32] <Inglor> would anyone here be able to help me with this issue
[08:32] <bayziders> MasterShrek: http://pastebin.ca/711931
[08:32] <MasterShrek> godzirra, is there a reason u are using the alternate install?
[08:33] <Inglor> MasterShrek, yes I am, and swiftweasel is a version of firefox that's supposed to run the flash plugin
[08:33] <geezone> Can anyone help me out with how do I get see other partition dirve I have a dual boot with windowsxp now in ununtu I can't see the hda1 which was the windows drive after a update I just gone..
[08:33] <Inglor> MasterShrek, it worked yesterday, not sure what made it stop working
[08:33] <godzirra> MasterShrek: its on a laptop, and I had a problem getting video on the normal install.
[08:33] <MasterShrek> Inglor, are u using nspluginwrapper for flash?
[08:33] <godzirra> Its an nvidia card, and I've had ubuntu running on it before though, so I know its not a serious problem.
[08:33] <xargon> godzirra, what laptop?
[08:33] <godzirra> (I used the alternate install when I got iut running before)
[08:33] <godzirra> dv6205
[08:34] <Inglor> MasterShrek, that's what swiftweasel does, it's an automatic installation of firefox + nspluginwrapper
[08:34] <bayziders> Afk a min
[08:34] <Inglor> MasterShrek, but it seems to be causing problems now, every time I enter a website with flash it stops responding and I have to xkill it
[08:35] <bayziders> Back
[08:35] <MasterShrek> Inglor, i use firefox and nspluginwrapper, i did it manually and i dont really ahve any problems with it
[08:35] <Pici> !away > troseph_lunch
[08:35] <Inglor> MasterShrek, well do you have any idea how I might be able to solve the issue?
[08:36] <MasterShrek> bayziders, its an atheros card, im not sure how to set it up, but thats something good to know about it
[08:36] <znag> hi, is there a way to get the recent version of digikam via apt in ubuntu? I tried the kubuntu mirrors from the digikam site but that obviously doesn't work :)
[08:36] <MasterShrek> Inglor, not really since mine doesnt freeze up i dont really have a fix for it
[08:36] <Moodles> i have 4 sata drives, sda, sdb, sdc and the newly added sdd
[08:36] <bayziders> MasterShrek what do you propose I do?
[08:37] <Inglor> MasterShrek, well thanks for trying to help anyway :/
[08:37] <wanger> i don't suppose anyone knows where i might get the source for apt-get? googling for the words apt-get, source and download is a bit useless =P
[08:37] <Moodles> ops was typing on the weong keyboard

[08:39] <Ubuntu_lover> Hey
[08:39] <eracc> bill__, bummer man. Oh well, what chip set would you recommend?
[08:39] <Ubuntu_lover> i tried to run it from a CD but its slow..
[08:39] <gecew> anybody help me pls
[08:39] <Moodles> yep turns out it is a si 3112 chipset ive got
[08:39] <Ubuntu_lover> 2) the colours are'nt good
[08:39] <squarebottle> !help
[08:39] <gecew> i have two hds file
[08:39] <eracc> Moodles, you using it as a RAID?
[08:40] <gecew> how to extract it
[08:40] <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
[08:40] <Moodles> nope, just as single sata drives
[08:40] <vulcanius> wanger, sudo apt-get source aptitude
[08:40] <Ubuntu_lover> guys
[08:40] <murkyMurk> eracc: stay away from nvidia nforce mcp55....nothing but trouble
[08:40] <Ubuntu_lover> shall i risk and install Ubuntu?
[08:41] <murkyMurk> Ubuntu_lover: yes, do it now
[08:41] <Inglor> how can I get the 32bit version of firefox, I really don't see any advantage to using the 64 bit one anyway
[08:41] <vulcanius> Ubuntu_lover, if it's slow it's not because of ubuntu, it's because of your hardware
[08:41] <eracc> Ok, I will stay away from SiI3112 and nforce mcp55 ... but what CAN I use?
[08:41] <Ubuntu_lover> vulc am running it from a CD
[08:41] <MasterShrek> Inglor, with that mindset why dont u just install 32 bit ubuntu?
[08:41] <[nrx] > arggghhh - i can't get nagios running :/
[08:41] <gecew> plsssssss
[08:41] <Ubuntu_lover> i did'nt install yet
[08:41] <Inglor> internet surfing doesn't require that much rendering anyway, and the only two plugins that could use the extra power (flash and java) run at 32bit anyway
[08:41] <gecew> anybody idea pls
[08:41] <murkyMurk> Inglor: default firefox version is 32 bit...you only need 64 bit in dedicated 64 bit OS on 64 cpu
[08:41] <squarebottle> Can somebody tell me why the Source-o-Matic page recommends not using source repositories unless you know you want to? What's the deal with source repositories exactly?
[08:41] <vulcanius> Ubuntu_lover, ah, well if it's what you want then you should install it
[08:42] <Inglor> MasterShrek, because I'd like to utilize the power of my processor for heavy - apps
[08:42] <Pici> gecew: No one knows what you are talking about.  Can you explain where these files came from? What are they?
[08:42] <eracc> gecew, I did not understand your problem, sorry.
[08:42] <marx2k> Whoever was looking for the sourcecode for apt-get...
[08:42] <marx2k> "apt-get source apt"
[08:42] <Inglor> murkyMurk, I run ubuntu 64 bit because I have a 64 bit processor
[08:42] <Pici> squarebottle: Its only if you plan on compiling things from source, generally you don't need it.
[08:42] <murkyMurk> Inglor: ahhh, i made that mistale too
[08:42] <Ubuntu_lover> theres some problem with it , everytime i try to Run it from a CD the colours are not that good
[08:43] <Inglor> murkyMurk, why mistake? I see better response times now
[08:43] <gecew> Pici: i want to extract ubuntu image  my pc
[08:43] <talcite1> AMD announced open source ATI drivers!~!!
[08:43] <squarebottle> Pici: Coming from Gentoo, that doesn't sound too bad, actually. :P
[08:43] <gecew> my pc is now xp
[08:43] <Inglor> Ubuntu 64 should be able to run firefox 32 with no problem, I'm just not sure where to get it
[08:43] <Inglor> talcite1, link?
[08:43] <squarebottle> Pici: Does it compile it for you, or just grab the tarball, or what?
[08:43] <marx2k> talcite1: welcome to last week :)
[08:43] <murkyMurk> Inglor: go back to i386 version, much easier and no performance drop at all thi side of a neural network
[08:43] <gecew> i have pvs file and two hds file
[08:43] <MasterShrek> Inglor, mozilla.com
[08:43] <Pici> squarebottle: It just grabs the tarball.
[08:43] <gecew> how to extract?
[08:43] <talcite1> Inglor:http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3108
[08:43] <vulcanius> Inglor, most people run i386 even though they have 64 bit machines. but for firefox 32 you want http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1174435
[08:43] <talcite1> marx2k: that was last week? 0.o
[08:43] <murkyMurk> Inglor: you need a 32bit chroot
[08:43] <Elefant> ok, xrandr rotation causes my compiz to stop updating.  It never used to do this for me before =(
[08:43] <Ubuntu_lover> so everytime i want to run Windows appz i must use Wine?
[08:44] <Pici> gecew: What is your native language?  We have a few language specific channels.
[08:44] <marx2k> talcite1:  yeah old news :) But exciting nonetheless!
[08:44] <squarebottle> Pici: And I would just do apt-get source package-name to grab the source for package-name?
[08:44] <Inglor> I want my operating system to run at 64 bit, I really don't see any reason to install a 32bit operating system
[08:44] <gecew> turkish
[08:44] <Pici> squarebottle: Indeedy.
[08:44] <marx2k> Inglor: but do you see a reason for running @ 64 bit?
[08:44] <talcite1> marx2k: indeed. Are the novell programmers actually a part of novell? or are they suse contributors?

[08:44] <vulcanius> Inglor, you'll most likely never even notice a difference
[08:44] <Ubuntu_lover> so everytime i want to run Windows appz i must use Wine?
[08:44] <squarebottle> Pici: Thanks a bunch, mate. :)
[08:44] <marx2k> talcite1: beats me :)
[08:45] <vulcanius> Inglor, the difference will be that the things you want to work, won't, heh
[08:45] <Inglor> marx2k, it's faster
[08:45] <murkyMurk> Inglor: because the vast majority of software is 32 bit
[08:45] <Pici> !chroot | Inglor
[08:45] <ubotu> Inglor: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[08:45] <MasterShrek> murkyMurk, everthing works in 64 bit, except flash and java
[08:45] <marx2k> Ubuntu: you can install Windows inside a virtual machine
[08:45] <marx2k> Inglor: not always
[08:45] <genii> Ubuntu_lover: Or keep a windows partition active for just some things and dual-boot
[08:45] <Pici> !flash97 | Inglor
[08:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flash97 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:45] <murkyMurk> Ubuntu_lover: learn to use equivalent apps.....IE -> firefox, notepad-> gedit etc
[08:45] <vulcanius> MasterShrek, not quite
[08:45] <marx2k> Inglor: only for a very limited amount of functions
[08:45] <Pici> !flash64 | Inglor

[08:45] <dmakalsky> Hi, how does one use efax.com within linux?
[08:45] <Inglor> vulcanius, swiftweasel is the first thing giving me trouble
[08:45] <MasterShrek> im running 64 bit, no problems at all
[08:46] <Ubuntu_lover> Using Ubuntu  isnt that hard right?
[08:46] <murkyMurk> MasterShrek: didn't when I ran mine...endless trouble..i had more in the chroot than out of it almost
[08:46] <marx2k> Elefant: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[08:46] <bogor> Znortfl: have you installed the php?
[08:46] <marx2k> Ubuntu: run the LiveCD and find out
[08:46] <Znortfl> bogor: php5 is installed, yes
[08:46] <MasterShrek> ick, ive been running 64 bit linux (different distros) for over a year, i never really have problems
[08:46] <Elefant> marx2k:  I did that, no luck.
[08:47] <ambutoc> hi guys i have problems adding files on my "filesystem", its telling me i dont have permission any one can help me? thanks

[08:47] <godzirra> heya guys.. I'm trying to install with my alt install cd, and I keep getting "-bash: no job control in this shell" and it fails to start X.  I'm using the alternate install because I originally had video problems with my dv6205 (laptop) nvidia card with the normal install.  The alternate install worked in the past.
[08:47] <wanger> vulcanius: ah cheers man, i missed your note before, apt-get is part of the aptitude package then? i'm not on ubuntu atm to check this stuff, and i don't want to reboot if it's not going to be there =P
[08:47] <USMarine> odzk don't chance nick after asking a question
[08:47] <Znortfl> bogor: libapache2-mod-php5 ?
[08:47] <USMarine> it's hard to follow
[08:47] <Ubuntu_lover> when running from the CD shall i choose Start and install from the options?
[08:47] <vulcanius> wanger, yes
[08:47] <SpiritD> is there a bug with SSH and ubuntu that causes the password to be changed? because i cant access the server as the pwd mysterioysly changed
[08:48] <murkyMurk> MasterShrek: congrats to you. I was pre 64bit OOO,,,,no flash, no et, no doom
[08:48] <odzk> i will just type sudo?
[08:48] <wanger> vulcanis: awesome, thank you very much =)
[08:48] <Elefant> I'll try again hopefully it will fix itself
[08:48] <Hestv4> how do I make my ubuntu to prefer ipv6 instead of ipv4?
[08:48] <Pici> SpiritD: Er, no.  Remember that root ssh logins are disabled though.
[08:48] <Hestv4> some quick sysctl?
[08:48] <bogor> Znortfl have u restarted the apche2 after installing php module for apache ?
[08:48] <tdn> How do I submit feature requests? Should I just submit them as bugs? Often I find that feature requests are just tagged "wishlist" and then ignored.
[08:48] <marx2k> Ubuntu_lover: there is no "start"
[08:48] <SpiritD> mine are enabled i've  been using it most of the day
[08:48] <Inglor> tdn, what sort of features?
[08:49] <Znortfl> bogor: A thousand times: force-reload, start/stop, reload, restart
[08:49] <odzk> vulcanius: i will just type sudo and thats it?
[08:49] <Pici> tdn: You already have the right idea.
[08:49] <Inglor> tdn, honestly if you really need something made either start a bounty or make it yourself
[08:49] <Ubuntu_lover> marx which one to choose?
[08:49] <Ubuntu_lover> sorry for the stupid questions :(..
[08:49] <Beererde> hi. when trying to get my wlan to work, i get the following: ipw3945: disagrees about version of symbol ieee80211_wx_get_encodeext
[08:49] <Beererde> what can i do?
[08:50] <godzirra> heya guys.. I'm trying to install with my alt install cd, and I keep getting "-bash: no job control in this shell" and it fails to start X.  I'm using the alternate install because I originally had video problems with my dv6205 (laptop) nvidia card with the normal install.  The alternate install worked in the past.
[08:50] <vulcanius> odzk, prefix your command with sudo, yes
[08:50] <vulcanius> wanger, ack, i told you aptitude not even thinking about it. aptitude is different from apt.
[08:50] <tdn> Inglor, it varies. For instance, right now I would like to be able to right click on an archive in Kubuntu  and be able to select something like "Extraxt archive to folder: <archive name>".
[08:51] <vulcanius> wanger, you'll want to do sudo apt-get source apt
[08:51] <tdn> Inglor, a bounty?
[08:51] <murlidhar> Ubuntu_lover: choose the first option when u put the livecd in the cd tray
[08:51] <Bupuntu> hi all
[08:51] <Elefant> changing resolutions works with xrandr but rotation does not =\
[08:51] <Beererde> in which package is the kernel module ipw3945 ??
[08:52] <Bupuntu> guys, i've got a partition with my windows on it, and i've got the name "Volume 45,2 GB: sda1", is it possible to change the name and possibly the icon?

[08:53] <Ubuntu_lover> 1sec , although i think because i got tons of Appz
[08:54] <neuma> What permissions should /etc/inittab have?
[08:54] <Ubuntu_lover> Intell(R) Celeron(R) CPU 2.40GHz  224MB of RAM
[08:55] <tarelerulz> How do you restart samba ? in ubunutu
[08:55] <vulcanius> Ubuntu_lover, yeah.... your gonna want more RAM
[08:55] <Ubuntu_lover> oo..
[08:55] <Pici> tarelerulz: `sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart`
[08:55] <Ubuntu_lover> so shall i not use it untill i get more RAM?
[08:55] <murlidhar> would have been better if u upgrade ur ram to 512mb
[08:55] <genii> for who was wondering about efax.com, http://forum.linspire.com/viewtopic.php?t=422139&
[08:56] <murlidhar> Ubuntu_lover: else u can install xubuntu
[08:56] <vulcanius> Ubuntu_lover, everything on the liveCD is loaded into memory and applications are read off the CD. with only 224 of ram it's no surprise that it's laggy
[08:56] <troseph> try xubuntu ubuntu_lover
[08:56] <Hannah1> I installed apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common , and when i type: glxinfo | grep direct ,give this : direct rendering: No , for install driver nvidia
[08:56] <bogor> Znortfl: generally if a text file is placed in html dir, then apache will display the contents of the file when it doesn't have the modules to process it. It wont offer to download it
[08:56] <murlidhar> !xubuntu | Ubuntu_lover

[08:57] <odzk> how can i retrieve the password for "root"?
[08:57] <kst> it's almost 5gig now
[08:58] <Inglor> odzk, it's the same as the password of your user by default
[08:58] <Pici> !root | odzk
[08:58] <ubotu> odzk: 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

Any idea how I can finally actually update the program, or mark it as updated ?

[09:04] <Draggin> Hehe Jim... Well... Concerning the Ubuntu software repository - isn't it supposed to have a link to the latest versions of packages?  And how do I install a package if it's NOT listed there?

[09:06] <IhateCLI> jim  Wine. I'm using ubuntu feisty. =p
[09:06] <vulcanius> IhateCLI, still a windows problem
[09:06] <skarface> he's asking for an equivalent to winrar. that's not a windows problem.
[09:07] <jim> Draggin: if there is a newer version in the repo than the one you have installed, apt-get will (maybe download and definitely) install it
[09:07] <IhateCLI> vulcanius Uh... You got me wrong, I don't care much for fixing winrar. I want to know what alternatives there are to it.
[09:07] <Elefant> IhateCLi: sudo apt-get install rar
[09:07] <Elefant> file-roller can extract rar files with that package
[09:08] <Draggin> Jim - does apt-get perform the same function as the Add/Remove utility or are they slightly different?
[09:08] <IhateCLI> Elefant Oh... I see. Thank you all!
[09:08] <Pici> Draggin: Same thing, just different interfaces.
[09:08] <Elefant> no help with my xrandr rotate problem?
[09:08] <LjL> Pici, doesn't Add/Remove only show a few packages but not all?
[09:08] <LjL> like, not libraries and not CLI stuff
[09:08] <jim> Draggin: I generally use apt-get, I don't use add/remove
[09:08] <Elefant> I dunno why its broke now and it worked like a week ago.
[09:08] <Draggin> Pici - thanks... so - how do you do a 'su apt-get update' in Add/Remove?
[09:09] <Draggin> Jim, I would like to, but I'm brand new to all this and still a bit lost
[09:09] <Pici> Draggin: er... You'd have to use the Update manager for that.
[09:09] <slackern> vcool, btw im using adblock with adblock filterset g and that removes that ad if i have it enabled on the webpage
[09:09] <vulcanius> Draggin, i'd suggest going to System >> Administration >> Synaptic Package Manager
[09:09] <jim> Draggin: hmm, ok... what was the last os you used before this?
[09:09] <vcool> cool its works .... :D
[09:09] <Draggin> vulcanius - Synaptic confuses me a bit...
[09:10] <Draggin> Jim, unfortunately, it was XP
[09:10] <IhateCLI> elefant Hello, me again, it works fine but how do I know if the rar had any comments in it?
[09:10] <slackern> vcool, ahh nice :)
[09:10] <jim> ok, this doesn't necessarily follow, so I'll ask... does that mean also you're new to linux?
[09:10] <Pici> LjL: Er, yes. I was just talking about using apt vs other ways of installing things.
[09:11] <jim> IhateCLI: man rar
[09:11] <IhateCLI> jim ok I'll have a look there, thanks
[09:12] <kc2keo> hi
[09:12] <jim> * Received a CTCP PING 1700936539 from Jonata
[09:12] <jim> * Received a DCC CHAT offer from Jonata
[09:12] <kc2keo> /accept
[09:12] <vulcanius> Draggin, i believe gai (Add/Remove) automatically grabs hte latest package lists when you start it but i'm not positive
[09:12] <LjL> jim: that's happening in #freenode
[09:13] <kc2keo> I noticed something wierd in my Ubuntu Feisty Fawn install.....
[09:13] <Pici> jim: ?
[09:13] <kc2keo> When my ipod nano 2gb gets mounted it shows the contents on the ipod in the trash
[09:13] <Pici> k
[09:13] <murlidhar> When i check updates from update manager after sometime i got an error i don't understand it. can any body solve my problem
[09:13] <kc2keo> when umounted the contents are not in trash anymore
[09:14] <Draggin> Vulcanius - I also got that impression, but I'm still slightly confused then... As I said, it's not listing the latest version of a particular package (two release older is listed) and I really want to install the latest one - will it break any of the automatic update functionality or any dependencies?
[09:14] <jim> nm,,, looks like he's doing this elsewhere
[09:14] <centyx> magnetron: hey bro
[09:14] <centyx> magnetron: u around
,whats the error msg ?
[09:14] <kc2keo> I do not use the ipod that much but thats strange
[09:14] <kc2keo> I never experienced that.
[09:14] <murlidhar> weau: GPG error: http://repository.debuntu.org feisty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 0E466170BCF1FC29
[09:15] <vulcanius> Draggin, oooooh.. thats usually because the maintainers haven't updated the version in the repository
[09:15] <murlidhar> vcool: PG error: http://repository.debuntu.org feisty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 0E466170BCF1FC29
[09:15] <Draggin> Vulcanius... The bastards! :) So, am I safe to install the latest version anyway?
[09:15] <vulcanius> Draggin, if you really want to use the most up to date i'd suggest using apt-get to remove what you have installed and download it from the site you know of
[09:15] <vcool> vulcanius answered ...
[09:15] <Gosha_> How do I output text to the end of a file in the shell? .. echo "blah" > file overwrites >.<
[09:15] <Draggin> Vulcanius - haven't used apt-get to install it yet, so just install the new one?
[09:16] <vulcanius> Draggin, yeah, which app is it?
[09:16] <Draggin> Vulcanius - Blender 2.45
[09:16] <skarface> murlidhar: wget http://repository.debuntu.org/GPG-Key-chantra.txt -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[09:16] <skarface> murlidhar: run that in a terminal
[09:16] <Gosha_> !echo
[09:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about echo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:16] <Jack_Sparrow> murlidhar: where did you get that repository..  it isnt one of the defaults?
[09:16] <vulcanius> Draggin, oh yeah thats perfectly fine
[09:16] <Pici> Gosha_: use echo "bleh" >> filename
[09:17] <skarface> Jack_Sparrow: it's an unsupported site, obviously
[09:17] <murlidhar> Jack_Sparrow:  i dunno but i guess it was for installing themes  or something
[09:17] <Gosha_> Ah, I thought it was something simple, thanks, Pici.
[09:17] <Draggin> Vulcanius - thanks :)  I have some more questions though... How do I uninstall something I installed manually?  Where does it install to in the first place?
[09:17] <murlidhar> Jack_Sparrow: aah i remember it was for installing pidgin2.0
[09:18] <skarface> murlidhar: on the page for pidgin 2.0.0 .deb there's a question and solution for your problem
[09:18] <skarface> I also just posted it
[09:18] <teb> when mounting an nfs share from my ubuntu server to my ubuntu laptop, the mount process takes upwards of 5 minutes, has anyone experienced this?
[09:18] <vulcanius> Draggin, it really depends on what type of install it was. whether it was a package file, source code, etc.
[09:19] <murlidhar> skarface: thnks :)
[09:19] <Davy_Jones> !vista > Davy_Jones
[09:19] <Draggin> Vulcanius - I have a tar.bz2 (and I'm actually not even quite sure how to go about installing that...)
[09:20] <vulcanius> Draggin, that is a compressed file. you'll need to extract it first
[09:20] <SpiritD> !vista
[09:20] <ubotu> vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[09:20] <vulcanius> Draggin, "tar xvjf file.tar.bz2"
[09:20] <SpiritD> :p
[09:20] <Pici> Draggin: Blender 2.43 is in the Ubuntu repos
[09:20] <Draggin> Vulcanius - where would that extract it to?
[09:20] <sethk> teb, when I've seen long mount times, they have been caused by DNS errors.  (This may or may not apply to your case, but it's worth checking.)  What I saw was a DNS lookup, a timeout, going to the next listed DNS server, a timeout, etc.
[09:21] <Draggin> Pici - I know - but I don't want to use 2.43 - I've been using 2.44 for a long time and 2.45 is a bug-fix release to that. so obviously the best option
[09:21] <twoshadetod> what is the default pin or how do i change my pin when i try to connect to my laptop from my cellphone (bluetooth)
[09:21] <Pici> Draggin: Okay, just letting you know
[09:21] <vulcanius> Draggin, whatever directory the file is in when you extra it there will be a new directory named after the file
[09:21] <eduard> wow
[09:21] <sethk> teb, you can test this easily by substituting the IP address for the name in the specification of the NFS mount.  such as, instead of xyz:/a/b/c, 192.168.0.123:/a/b/c.
[09:22] <Draggin> vulcanius - ah, okay
[09:22] <CoCaInE> (gnome-session:18186): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

[09:22] <CoCaInE> wtf?
[09:24] <neuma> Hi I'm on Feisty i386 and have just installed runit (as a requisite of bincimap) and /etc/inittab doesn't appear to be being picked up. I have rebooted
[09:24] <vulcanius> twoshadetod, usually you have to set that up yourself in /etc/bluetooth
[09:24] <megatog615> Does anybody here have an XGI video card?
[09:24] <stefg> !upstart | neuma
[09:24] <ubotu> neuma: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[09:25] <NCLI> I installed Feisty a few hours ago, totally clean install, after formatting my HDD. However, when I start my laptop, it doesnt even open Grub. After the OS boot screen, it just displays a blank screen with a blinking cursor in the top left corner, nothing else.
[09:25] <NCLI> If I try to boot from the install cd, it does the same thing. I installed the 32 bit version. I've also tried to install Super GRUB, but it refuses to boot that cd either.
[09:25] <NCLI> Then i got the idea to remove the HDD, and voila, ti works. However, since the PC boots without the HDD inserted, the Ubuntu installer doesn't detect it, and can't install the OS.
[09:25] <NCLI> Any advice?
[09:25] <twoshadetod> vulcanius, I did and it still will not connect
[09:25] <twoshadetod> I created a file called /etc/bluetooth/pin and put it in there
[09:25] <CoCaInE> (gnome-session:18186): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:  <- i got tightvnc and x11, whats wrong?
[09:25] <skarface> NCLI: what's the graphics card?
[09:25] <murlidhar> how can i transfer files from my sony ericsson to desktop without using bluetooth . In window xp i am able to do this via MyPhone Explorer
[09:26] <vulcanius> twoshadetod, did you restart the bluetooth services after creating a pin?
[09:26] <_tom__> parted is telling me i cant remove /dev/sda4 because it is being used, but mount is telling me it's not mounted why might this be
[09:26] <twoshadetod> vulcanius, yup
[09:26] <NCLI> geforce 7400, but since I've already identified the HDD as the problem, I don't see how that's relevant?
[09:26] <skarface> NCLI: if you're seeing the boot splash, the HDD is not the problem
[09:27] <twoshadetod> looks like i had to change a setting in bluetooth-applet
[09:27] <NCLI> I repeat the last part: Then i got the idea to remove the HDD, and voila, the CD works. However, since the PC boots without the HDD inserted, the Ubuntu installer doesn't detect it, and can't install the OS. Any advice?
[09:27] <murlidhar> any alternate application in Ubuntu for MyPhoneExplorer??????
[09:27] <twoshadetod> vulcanius, once i connect to my cellphone, where do i look to access it and transfer files to it?does it mount? show up in "places"?
[09:28] <skarface> NCLI: did you see the boot splash?
[09:28] <NCLI> Yes, I saw the POST screen.
[09:28] <skarface> the ubuntu loading screen, or just bios stuff?
[09:28] <vulcanius> twoshadetod, try 1234
[09:28] <stefg> NCLI: it's more likely that the harddisk adapter isn't properly identified or you have an IRQ conflict
[09:28] <murlidhar> cuz everytime i need to transfer mp3s to my phone i have to boot windows:(
[09:28] <stefg> !boot | ncli
[09:28] <ubotu> ncli: 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
[09:28] <NCLI> Just BIOS stuff.
[09:28] <skarface> then it has nothing to do with graphics :)
[09:29] <twoshadetod> vulcanius, awsome, it works. No how do I copy a file from my compputer to my cellphone now that it is connected?
[09:29] <NCLI> I don't have a floppy drive.
[09:30] <vulcanius> twoshadetod, you should be able to right click on the file and send via Bluetooth
[09:30] <Cequine> Hi guys. i was wondering if someone could tell me how to find what folder i have mounted on each of my device partitions.  ( i wanna find out which partition i have root and /home directories on)
[09:30] <stefg> NCLI: look at the boot options table... try to pass additional boot arguments like routeirq or noacpi
[09:30] <NCLI> Also, I can't get to GRUB because nothing works when the HDD is inserted.
[09:31] <anthony> Cequine: df -h will work
[09:31] <stefg> NCLI: oh... then indeed your BIOS needs a check
[09:31] <NCLI> How do I get to the boot options table!?
[09:31] <stefg> NCLI: in grub :-\
[09:31] <twoshadetod> vulcanius, weird dont have that. Do you know how I can just like browse my phones content? maybe a viewer or something?
[09:32] <stefg> !boot | NCLI

[09:32] <Davy_Jones> what is a monolithic kernel?
[09:32] <murlidhar> how can i transfer files from my sony ericsson to desktop without using bluetooth . In window xp i am able to do this via MyPhone Explorer
[09:33] <marx2k> Davy_Jones: singl cpu
[09:33] <vulcanius> twoshadetod, not positive but let me see
[09:33] <marx2k> single
[09:33] <Cequine> anthony thank you works brilliantly
[09:33] <bruenig> a monolithic kernel is one piece of software as opposed to kernels which may be comprised of many smaller pieces
[09:33] <bruenig> like gnu herd
[09:33] <Davy_Jones> so we can have dual kernel?
[09:33] <dredhammer> how do i switch to my new PCI sound card from On board audio?
[09:33] <Draggin> vulcanius - another question - if I have a program ready to install, how can I tell it where to install to?  Same thing - does it install into the directory where the setup file resides?  And where is the best location to install your apps to - sort of like the 'Program Files' folder or Ubuntu?
[09:33] <NCLI> I still don't have a floppy drive, and I can't access GRUB or the command line.
[09:34] <Davy_Jones> is it like in windows you have to restart whenever you do something because it's monolithic, while linux is modular?
[09:34] <USMarine> you can't switch kernel without restarting
[09:35] <Davy_Jones> and what does windows do after restart, recompile the kernel?
[09:35] <marx2k> Davy: loads replacement dll's Im guessing
[09:35] <stefg> Davy_Jones: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_%28computer_science%29
[09:35] <NCLI> Tries to post again: I installed Feisty a few hours ago. However, when I start my laptop, it doesnt even open Grub. After the OS boot screen, it just displays a blank screen with a blinking cursor in the top left corner.
[09:35] <NCLI> If I try to boot from the install cd, it does the same thing.

[09:35] <spiekey> hi
[09:36] <USMarine> Davy_Jones what marx2k said
[09:36] <vulcanius> Draggin, multiple places usually. configuration files go to /etc, any libs go to /lib, various files go in /usr, etc.
[09:36] <spiekey> where can i set utf-8 for gdm/gnome?
[09:36] <Davy_Jones> stefg: nice page
[09:36] <Draggin> vulcanius - and this happens automatically?
[09:36] <vulcanius> Draggin, yeah
[09:36] <stefg> yeah, wikipedia has even some more nice one :-)
[09:36] <linenoise> my sound works for a while and then stops.  /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart does nothing
[09:36] <Draggin> vulcanius - how on earth does one ever keep track of where all the different things are then??
[09:36] <vulcanius> Draggin, it's best to use a package manager because they keep track of those things and it makes for easy removal
[09:37] <fx|RabBit> good evening everybody
[09:37] <Draggin> vulcanius - okay... So how do I use a package manager to install a program that I downloaded myself?
[09:37] <genii> Draggin: Yes, the package manager is what thats for, to keep track of what went where during installs and what apps you have or don't have, etc.
[09:38] <vulcanius> Draggin, well the software has to be in a package file. apt-get and dpkg use *.deb files while rpm uses *.rpm files, etc.
[09:38] <bruenig> Draggin, you can create your own deb or you can keep track of it yourself using source package managers like paco or installing it in /opt or keeping the source directory so that you can just make uninstall whenever you need to
[09:38] <linenoise> Nothing in var log messages, it just stops working.  I assume it defaults to alsa when it installs?  Is there a modprobe command to unload reload the sound driver?
[09:38] <bruenig> choices
[09:38] <Draggin> okay - one second...
[09:39] <caffealburro> hi, does anyone know what the gconf editor is and how i can access it?
[09:39] <FFighter> Hey folks
[09:39] <fx|RabBit> hey
[09:39] <bruenig> caffealburro, someone at gnome said I got a good idea, let's port windows registry to linux and thus gconf was born
[09:39] <salox> helou
[09:39] <FFighter> What's a good backup tool or application that I could use to schedule backups automatically
[09:39] <FFighter> bash scripts under cron ?
[09:39] <FFighter> :)
[09:39] <USMarine> FFighter keep

[09:39] <twof1sh> it has a help system as far as I remember
[09:40] <makkone-> hi @ all
[09:40] <Draggin> genii, vulcanius, bruenig - can I direct you to a URL quickly?  I have a question on the installation method they use...
[09:40] <vulcanius> Draggin, yeah
[09:40] <bruenig> Draggin, no
[09:41] <linenoise> alsamixer seems to work, no sound comes out though.
[09:41] <linenoise> anyone?
[09:41] <krammer> How can find out if I have 3d card?
[09:41] <Draggin> hehe, well, okay, vulcanius then - http://www.fabforce.net/downloadfile.php?iddownloadfile=2
[09:41] <vulcanius> linenoise, what is your sound outputting to?
[09:41] <linenoise> vulcanius: what does that even mean?
[09:41] <NCLI> I installed Feisty a few hours ago. However, when I start my laptop, it doesnt even open Grub. After the OS boot screen, it just displays a blank screen with a blinking cursor in the top left corner.
[09:41] <NCLI> If I try to boot from the install cd, it does the same thing.
[09:41] <NCLI> Then i got the idea to remove the HDD, and voila, the CD works. However, since the PC boots without the HDD inserted, the Ubuntu installer doesn't detect it, and can't install the OS. Any advice?
[09:41] <linenoise> vulcanius: headphones? like the device?  or are you asking if I'm redirecting it to a file?
[09:41] <vulcanius> linenoise, i mean the device
[09:42] <linenoise> vulcanius: headphones
[09:42] <bruenig> Draggin, those are precompiled binaries
[09:42] <Draggin> vulcanius - does that mean that the program is technically not 'installed' but just run from wherever you unpacked it?
[09:42] <Draggin> bruenig - see question to vulcanius above then too, please...
[09:42] <linenoise> this is retarded.  sound should not be this hard.  it should not stop working and require a reboot to make go again.
[09:42] <bruenig> Draggin, so just copy the whole extracted directory to /opt and then run it by starting the startdbd script
[09:43] <fx|RabBit> NCLI ever tried to change your boot device priorityx in bios?
[09:43] <linenoise> this is no better than the redhat 5 days.
[09:43] <Draggin> bruenig - opt - what else goes in there?  I'm still very confused by the directory structure and file system... Is this where main apps normally go then?
[09:43] <bruenig> Draggin, opt is for things which do not follow the filesystem hierarchy standard
[09:44] <bruenig> Draggin, the lib bin share setup
[09:44] <vulcanius> linenoise, go to System >> Preferences >> Sound and make sure everything is correct
[09:44] <bruenig> Draggin, technically things like firefox and azureus and thunderbird should be in there but ubuntu doesn't do that for some reason
[09:44] <marx2k> you can also do "alsamixer"
[09:44] <Draggin> Bruenig - so opt is literally 'optional' then?
[09:44] <bruenig> I don't know what it stands for
[09:45] <mar1> two questions that I keep running into running Gutsy. 1. if the session freezes, how do i capture and report a bug. ie using firefox and surfing a certain page seems to lock the system except the mouse. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=77694&highlight=application+startup
[09:45] <Draggin> Bruenig - okay :) I'll try that quickly...
[09:45] <NCLI> I have changed my boot priorities, but the HDD still manages to screw it up somehow.
[09:45] <bruenig> wikipedia defines it as optional application software packages but it doesn't connect optional to opt necessarily
[09:45] <stefg> !gutsy | mar1
[09:45] <ubotu> mar1: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[09:46] <Draggin> Bruenig - I can't move the folder? How do I do that as the root user, or what is going on?
[09:46] <vulcanius> Draggin, prefix your command with sudo
[09:46] <bruenig> Draggin, sudo mv folder /opt
[09:46] <linenoise> vulcanius: yeah.... everything is correct... sorry for wasting your time, I'm going back to windows or osx... this just isn't ready
[09:46] <marx2k> I do believe /opt is optional
[09:46] <Inglor> hey, I'm looking for some interesting games that run natively on ubuntu, would anyone here mind referring me to a list or something?
[09:46] <anthony> !games | Inglor

[09:47] <marx2k> :)
[09:48] <fx|RabBit> can anybody pls tell me where ubuntu stores variables like where to look for java pls?
[09:48] <ubuntu> anybody can say me how can I enable the grub of my ubuntu?
[09:48] <anthony> ubuntu: what do you mean?
[09:48] <bruenig> fx|RabBit, probably /etc/profile.d scripts
[09:48] <Draggin> Bruenig - okay... I'm suspecting I'm doing something else wrong then... What is the command to delete a folder?  I think I should rather try the RPM package
[09:48] <fx|RabBit> bruenig i got the problem that i have java installed
[09:49] <bruenig> fx|RabBit, that statement confuses me in the head
[09:49] <fx|RabBit> but i keep getting errors: libjava.so not found and java2 runtime environment not found
[09:49] <murlidhar> anthony: i guess ubuntu means he wants to install grub in mbr

[09:49] <NCLI> If I try to boot from the install cd, it does the same thing.
[09:49] <NCLI> Then i got the idea to remove the HDD, and voila, the CD works. However, since the PC boots without the HDD inserted, the Ubuntu installer doesn't detect it, and can't install the OS. Any advice?
[09:49] <ubuntu> anthony: can you speeake spanish?
[09:50] <fx|RabBit> apt-get install sun-java5-*
[09:50] <energY89> hello
[09:50] <anthony> ubuntu: no, but #ubuntu-es does.
[09:50] <bruenig> apt-get doesn't take wildcards like that does it?
[09:50] <stefg> fx|RabBit:  sudo update-alternatives --config java
[09:50] <menow> hi
[09:50] <MinceR> hi
[09:50] <fx|RabBit> NCLI i already told you above to change boot device priority in bios
[09:50] <Davy_Jones> is it hard for anyone to develop a new kernel
[09:50] <anthony> bruenig: I think it does, actually.
[09:50] <Davy_Jones> from scratch
[09:50] <PriceChild> bruenig, seems fine for me, often do things like that for removing
[09:50] <murkyMurk> NCLI: use alternate installer maybe or even go back down to an edgy or dapper disk
[09:50] <PriceChild> Davy_Jones, yes
[09:50] <MinceR> when trying to install vice, i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38580/
[09:50] <Syrra> I begin to loathe kernel updates. Grub is  now llooking in the wrong place for the root partition and I don't remember what hard drive/partition it's in.
[09:50] <MinceR> i suspect that the vice package is broken or something.
[09:50] <NCLI> I did that, to no avail. The HDD still screws it up.
[09:51] <MinceR> could anyone confirm/help?
[09:51] <Davy_Jones> like we only have windows, linux, macOS kernels... why so few
[09:51] <MinceR> (trying to use adept to install)

[09:51] <energY89> I have a little Problem. When im looking a Video, my Diplay got Black. Any Idea? I've checkes the Battery-Setting too....
[09:51] <fx|RabBit> NCLI hten you got massive mainboard trouble
[09:51] <anthony> Syrra: there's an option in the grub config you can change to fix that in the future.
[09:51] <fx|RabBit> stefg thx ill try that one
[09:51] <Davy_Jones> PriceChild: i am banned from offtopic
[09:51] <Inglor> Davy_Jones, that depends what you already know, anyhow this is a support forum for ubuntu
[09:51] <vulcanius> Syrra, df -h
[09:51] <NCLI> I agree, it seems that whenever it reads anything from the HDD, it blocks the rest of the system.
[09:51] <PriceChild> Davy_Jones, i don't really care... :/ #ubuntu-ops if you want to contest that ban.
[09:52] <cox377> Hey all, I'm looking for a basic script / command i can use to reduce the size of pictures on a server

[09:53] <bogdomania> hello all..i have some problems please help...im new on linux..so i tryied to install build essentials..and i get that the g++ is not compiled but exists on my computer...what can i do?
[09:53] <cox377> bruenig: lol sorry mate, man man?
[09:53] <vulcanius> Syrra, df -h will show you which drive your root partition is on.... if your currently on that machine that is
[09:53] <bruenig> cox377, it brings up one of these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_pages
[09:53] <energY89> I have a little Problem. When im looking a Video, my Diplay got Black. Any Idea? I've checkes the Battery-Setting too....
[09:53] <Syrra> vulcanius: I'm booted into windows at the moment
[09:54] <vulcanius> Syrra, ah ok
[09:54] <anthony> Syrra: groot I think
[09:54] <stefg> energY89: using compiz /beryl ?
[09:55] <peet_> r there somone from norway here?
[09:55] <Syrra> So, there's a way to guess the root paritition from the grub command line, but I don't remember what it was
[09:55] <sethk> energY89, only watch videos that were recorded at midnight on a day without any moonlight.  :)
[09:55] <Syrra> I spell good
[09:55] <sethk> Syrra, it's not the grub command line, it's the relevant line in the grub configuration file.
[09:55] <fx|RabBit> daned stefg, that was so simple and so genius, works again da sheet gg
[09:55] <Syrra> sethk: I don't remember the partition, or else I'd edit the file
[09:56] <jricardors> problemas c/ apache, alguem pode ajudar????
[09:56] <stefg> Syrra: grub has a find command 'find /vmlinuz'
[09:56] <NCLI> Ok, last try, then I'll stop reposting this, and start counting down the weeks.
[09:56] <anthony> !pt | jricardors
[09:56] <ubotu> jricardors: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[09:56] <sethk> Syrra, there is a capability in grub to search a partition to discover the type, and whether the kernel file exists on that partition.
[09:56] <murlidhar> Syrra: is it find/grub/stage1   ???
[09:56] <NCLI> I installed Feisty a few hours ago. However, when I start my laptop, it doesnt even open Grub. After the OS boot screen, it just displays a blank screen with a blinking cursor in the top left corner.

[09:56] <sethk> Syrra, help at the grub prompt is quite helpful.
[09:56] <bruenig> cox377, man pages are great
[09:56] <NCLI> Ok, last try, then I'll stop reposting this, and start counting down the weeks.
[09:56] <ericj> need to generate certs for apache ssl.  how-to's say to use apache2-ssl-certificate but I can't find it in packages.  where is it or what is the alternative?
[09:57] <Syrra> quite
[09:57] <murkyMurk> NCLI: try a different installer...i recommend DAPPER or EDGY over FEISTY....get them from canonical
[09:57] <anthony> ericj: locate ssl | grep bin may help

[10:01] <mojoman> Hi. I tried to outsmart apt-get and I lost bigtime. apt-get install -f will now remove some 500 mb, which I really don't like. Is there a good way to downgrade a package that was installed from a .deb?
[10:01] <Wrestleman> whats the use?
[10:02] <genii> dwxreaper: Depends on what it does
[10:02] <bruenig> there is a ##linux channel
[10:02] <bruenig> why not go in there?
[10:02] <Wrestleman> ok
[10:02] <dwxreaper> genii: it checks to see of a mysql command is running, and if not starts it. the command pipes a file to a database
[10:02] <anthony> !pinning | mojoman
[10:02] <ubotu> mojoman: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[10:02] <stefg> mojoman: what did you install ?
[10:02] <elfranger> lo all
[10:02] <dwxreaper> the file is a namedpipe
[10:03] <murkyMurk> BusyBox on Fesity LiveCd can't access tty; job control turned off
[10:03] <Inglor> hey what's a good program that's similar to daemon tools on windows?
[10:03] <bruenig> dwxreaper, if you want to write a proper daemon, then you can put it in /etc/init.d/ and then go through the symlinks and whatnot, else you need to call the script from /etc/rc.local
[10:03] <mojoman> stefg. libc6 and libgcc
[10:03] <elfranger> does anyone know off the top of their head how to enable support for norwegian characters in ubuntu server?
[10:03] <dwxreaper> genii: it just needs to always be running if the system is running
[10:03] <stefg> mojoman: uhoh.... very bad idea
[10:03] <elfranger> example: http://www.tramp5.no <- look at the squares in the text on the menus
[10:04] <mojoman> anthony, ubotu, I'll check out pinning, thanks. It rings a bell
[10:04] <bruenig> !sorry | mojoman
[10:04] <ubotu> mojoman: It's ok, I can't stay mad at you.
[10:04] <dwxreaper> bruenig: oh okay cool, so rc.local is just a directory i can throw the script in, and if the system boots well it will start at some point for sure?
[10:04] <mojoman> stefg. Yeah, I know .. now.
[10:04] <bruenig> dwxreaper, no rc.local is a script
[10:04] <stefg> mojoman: backup, reinstall
[10:04] <Inglor> hey what's a good program that's similar to daemon tools on windows?
[10:04] <murkyMurk> dwxreaper: put a call to your script in rc.local
[10:05] <genii> dwxreaper: Then /etc/init.d  is best. If it needs a lockfile etc so you can start/stop/restart it from there also use something there as a template to work from like the dbus script
[10:05] <LjL> chalcedony: no, nothing's wrong i think, you need to press "g" to enter an address. isn't that the same in lynx?
[10:05] <mojoman> stefg: or upgrade the full monty :)
[10:05] <bill__> dwxreaper, rcS.d is that directory, you need to call the script SNNfoo (where NN is a number)
[10:05] <bruenig> if he only needs to start it and never to stop or restart it a daemon is rather pointless really
[10:05] <dwxreaper> i just want a place to throw the script, i don't need anything fancy
[10:05] <james296> I need help recording using GNUsound
[10:05] <chalcedony> LjL: there should be SOMETHING on the screen no?
[10:06] <chalcedony> glad you're still around :)
[10:06] <dwxreaper> so call the script from rc.local, like.. /usr/sqlscript/sqlcheck.sh
[10:06] <LjL> chalcedony: a menu line at the top
[10:06] <dwxreaper> and everything will be good?
[10:06] <manolinux> hola

[10:12] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net (GNOME) or https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KDEMultimediaKeys (KDE) - See !Keyboard for changing layouts
[10:12] <blahblahx> but i want to find the files so i can modify one

[10:13] <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, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet.
[10:13] <Jowi> philippon, I have not been able to get .asx streams working. only .pls and .m3u

[10:20] <blahblahx> where are the usplash splashes located
[10:20] <stefg> doffe: look at dmesg and watch for file system panics or otherwise suspicious messages
[10:20] <blahblahx> i want to modify one
[10:20] <LjL> chalcedony: install gpm
[10:20] <blahblahx> not just change it
[10:20] <blahblahx> modify one of the splashes
[10:20] <blahblahx> so where is it located?
[10:20] <chalcedony> LjL: okies ty
[10:20] <Death_Sargent> the splashes eh?
[10:20] <riotkittie> gpm <3
[10:21] <bruenig> blahblahx, you can't really modify per se like that. It's not like they are pngs or something that you can gimp
[10:21] <blahblahx> well i can't navigate into them and change the image part
[10:21] <blahblahx> like in the file there is no image?
[10:21] <Death_Sargent> blahblahx: navigate to them as root
[10:21] <murkyMurk> lost window decorations after a compiz experiment...how can i get them back/
[10:21] <blahblahx> where are they located
[10:21] <Death_Sargent> blahblahx: there are others avail online
[10:22] <blahblahx> ?
[10:22] <bruenig> blahblahx, no, you have to realize that there is no graphical server running when those displays so graphics can't be used really
[10:22] <bruenig> display(
[10:22] <bruenig> *
[10:22] <doffe> stefg: it looks pretty normal, mabye something with chmod flags or something ? (new user here)
[10:22] <zerwas> does somebody know how i can find out which is the best ubuntu mirror for me?
[10:22] <blahblahx> wait which is the usplash?
[10:22] <Death_Sargent> blahblahx: its quite a bit of coding to make new boot-splashes
[10:22] <nexttwo> murkyMurk:how can i just only backup all programs /?
[10:22] <blahblahx> when do you see it
[10:22] <stefg> doffe: just issue 'mount' (no arguments) is it mounted rw ?
[10:22] <blahblahx> right after the boot menu right?
[10:22] <bruenig> blahblahx, you see it well before x server is started
[10:23] <krokodilflecken> where in gconf would I go to re-enable alt+tab?
[10:23] <bruenig> blahblahx, without x server, conventional graphics can't  be used
[10:23] <murkyMurk> nexttwo: why would you backup programs? Makes no sense...back up data
[10:23] <blahblahx> then how are graphical usplashes made?
[10:23] <doffe> stefg: /dev/sdc1 on /mnt/newhome type ext3 (rw)
[10:23] <bruenig> machine code
[10:23] <chalcedony> LjL: E: Couldn't find package links2-g
[10:23] <blahblahx> okay ill just tell you what i want to do
[10:23] <bruenig> blahblahx, no but there are ways to convert things to usplash, but not the other way around
[10:23] <blahblahx> im remastering an ubuntu variant using reconstructor
[10:24] <LjL> chalcedony, type "links2 -g". it's a command with a "-g" option, it's not a package
[10:24] <nexttwo> murkyMurk:welli just want the programs only, that if i change something from the system i can restore ..
[10:24] <blahblahx> i want to slightly modify the usplash image
[10:24] <bruenig> its like asking someone to figure out the source code of a binary
[10:24] <blahblahx> by adding a few words
[10:24] <chalcedony> LjL: that command doesnt work
[10:24] <bruenig> if the thing is already compiled, you can't do that
[10:24] <blahblahx> i just want to add a few words to the usplash
[10:24] <blahblahx> like mini edition
[10:24] <chalcedony> LjL:  ~$ sudo apt-get install links2 -g
[10:24] <chalcedony> E: Command line option 'g' [from -g]  is not known.
[10:24] <bruenig> blahblahx, I just want to add an extra for loop to this compiled binary, nope not going to happen
[10:25] <stefg> doffe: sudo chown <username>:<usergroup>  /mnt/newhome
[10:25] <blahblahx> but ive seen the result of it
[10:25] <LjL> chalcedony: links2 -g
[10:25] <blahblahx> like someone modified the same ubuntu variant and added the words XFCE edition
[10:25] <LjL> chalcedony: just type the ABOVE
[10:25] <LjL> chalcedony: no sudo apt-get anything
[10:25] <bruenig> blahblahx, they probably had the source png, or reverse engineered it by eye
[10:25] <chalcedony> ohhh
[10:26] <main2> me / and my dev. partner both need to be able to write stuff to /var/www - we both have a normal user account
[10:26] <bruenig> blahblahx, unless you know how to uncompile something though which I am pretty sure can't be done, then your approach isn't going to happen
[10:26] <doffe> stefg: i now my username :) but what should i type in usergroup ?
[10:26] <main2> should i add ourself to either 'admin' or 'wheel', and then chown the /var/www as that group?
[10:26] <nexttwo> !backup program\

[10:26] <blahblahx> heres the splash i want to add the text to
[10:27] <blahblahx> http://linuxmint.com/pictures/screenshots/cassandra/0.png

[10:27] <bruenig> blahblahx, that's a grub splash
[10:27] <blahblahx> oh
[10:27] <blahblahx> crap
[10:27] <blahblahx> lol
[10:27] <blahblahx> sry
[10:27] <pike_> blahblahx: grub splash is really easy
[10:28] <blahblahx> how ?
[10:28] <blahblahx> do i edit it
[10:28] <doffe> stefg: seems to work perfect now, thanks a million
[10:28] <Jowi> blahblahx, "apt-get source usplash-theme-ubuntu"
[10:28] <blahblahx> but this uses a custom splash
[10:28] <blahblahx> so how do i find and edit that file
[10:29] <chalcedony> LjL: a file browser? i tried g for go .. it was looking up files and now has a full list of files
[10:29] <rafael__> hello
[10:29] <Dybber> When using recursive downloading with wget like this "wget -r --limit=0 http://web.archive.org/web/20061110230027/http://www.klassikerne.vmk.dk/index.html" only the index is downloaded, and the links from that page points to the online versions of the links. Why doesn't it download the other pages?
[10:29] <bruenig> I imagine the splash would be located on /boot somewhere but I don't use a splash so I don't know
[10:29] <nexttwo> beerb
[10:29] <rafael__> i just installed the ubuntu gutsy (tribe 5) and my sound sigmatel 82801G (ich7 family ) is not working
[10:29] <Jowi> blahblahx, (that's how you get the original images that's in the ubuntu usplash)
[10:29] <rafael__> please. someone can help me ?
[10:29] <tsukasa> does f12 do anything in ubuntu that i should worry about
[10:30] <tsukasa> can i make it do other stuff
[10:30] <murkyMurk> ata1.00 failed to set xfermode......looks like Gutsy is foobarred for MCP55 too
[10:30] <mc44> rafael__: please use #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[10:30] <bruenig> sets your computer on fire I think
[10:30] <rafael__> thank u
[10:30] <LjL> chalcedony: ?!
[10:30] <pike_> blahblahx: you just point to the splash image in the /boot/grub/menu.lst file like: splashimage /boot/grub/mahimage.xpm.gz     to make the image right format youd apt-get install imagemagick   and then use command 'convert mahimage.jpg -resize 640x480 -colors 16 -depth 16 -verbose mahgrubimage.xpm' to format whatever image then gzip it and thats it
[10:30] <LjL> chalcedony: what the heck have you typed? did you have a gray window when you pressed "g"?
[10:31] <murkyMurk> so, unless i change hardware, i'm held back to edgy eft, great
[10:31] <chalcedony> LjL: yes it was gray . . over my whole screen
[10:31] <chamba> where can i get a list of commands to use
[10:31] <chalcedony> LjL: i used the cursor to make it smaller
[10:31] <bruenig> chamba, <tab><tab>
[10:31] <Jowi> !commands | chamba
[10:31] <ubotu> chamba: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[10:31] <chamba> I used to use icr but that was time a go
[10:32] <bruenig> oh he means irc commands
[10:32] <stefg> !cli | chamba
[10:32] <pike_> Blackgoth: sorry looked it up menu.lst entry would be like splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/mygrubsplash.xpm.gz
[10:32] <chamba> I mean commands to use ICR
[10:32] <LjL> chalcedony: well when you press "g" you should simply get a requester for a URL, just like you got before
[10:32] <chamba> not the terminal
[10:32] <Jowi> chamba, oh, you meant IRC commands and not terminal...
[10:32] <bruenig> chamba, irc not icr
[10:32] <riotkittie> heh
[10:32] <krokodilflecken> !aha, got it
[10:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about aha, got it - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[10:33] <gmcinnes> making robots do stupid stuff is fun

[10:35] <gnychis> whats the best way to debug a computer lockup problem?  I cannot correlate it with any specific program I run which makes me think its a core program causing the lockup
[10:36] <USMarine> gnychis check the kernel lohs
[10:36] <mssever> gnychis: Can you use Ctrl+Alt+Backspace?
[10:36] <USMarine> logs*
[10:36] <smallfoot-> What is Ubuntu doing to prevent the problem of license profileration?
[10:37] <gnychis> mssever: no, its a full lockup which makes me think its a kernel panic
[10:37] <gnychis> USMarine: which logs are the kernel logs?
[10:37] <main2> what is the group 'admin' used for? :/
[10:37] <Jowi> main2, to get "sudo" rights
[10:37] <USMarine> gnychis kernel panic means leds blinking
[10:38] <main2> Jowi: like wheel in the past?
[10:38] <Jowi> main2, yep, that's the one.
[10:38] <gnychis> USMarine: hmmm, off the top of my head i don't know if it was blinking
[10:38] <gurkburk> arnt you supposed to be able to install .deb files directly into ubuntu.. or? .deb only for "debian" or something? .-p
[10:38] <Jowi> main2, it's still called wheel on slackware and others.
[10:38] <mssever> gnychis: /var/log/kern.log
[10:38] <main2> Jowi: ahh k cool :),   jowi -> i wanne add me and my dev.partner to a group and then chown /var/www
[10:38] <genii> gnychis:  capslock+scrolllock together blinking = kernel error
[10:38] <USMarine> gurkburk .deb for debian based distros
[10:38] <main2> so we can trow our devstuff in there.......
[10:39] <main2> so we can use the admin group, ok cool :)
[10:39] <main2> i guess? :D
[10:39] <mssever> gurkburk: Ubuntu and Debian both use .deb files, but sometimes they aren't compatible
[10:39] <gurkburk> USMarine: ok, weird.. found a link with a wine-fix for running wow in wine, on ubuntu (its even on us ubuntu forums)
[10:39] <gurkburk> that link is for a .deb installer, weird that it shouldnt be for ubuntu :p
[10:39] <vmlinuz1> hi
[10:39] <main2> Jowi: does that sound like a good idea to do? :D
[10:39] <Jowi> main2, better create a new group to use for that. everyone that is in admin group can use sudo.
[10:40] <main2> Jowi: well, we both can already sudo
[10:40] <vmlinuz1> where can i found codec (aac, wmv, avi, ecc...) for my ubuntu?
[10:40] <mssever> gurkburk: If it's on the ubuntu forums, it's fprobably for Ubuntu unless otherwise noted
[10:40] <vmlinuz1> there's a package that comprend all audio and video codec?
[10:40] <stefg> !wow
[10:40] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[10:40] <main2> Jowi: but we create a new group 'webadmins' then and reown the directory :)
[10:40] <murkyMurk> vmlinuz1: easy route to that is to install easyubuntu...google for it
[10:41] <USMarine> vmlinuz1 vlc installs almost all of them
[10:41] <USMarine> you can start by there
[10:41] <gurkburk> I just tried opening it in file-browser and "open with archive manager"; it has a "debian-binary" file in it... so im guessing someone linked a debian fix in the ubuntu forums :-p
[10:41] <mssever> vmlinuz1: Look for medibuntu
[10:41] <gurkburk> damn, the topic and solution was for my exact problem to
[10:41] <Jowi> main2, that's what I would do. You can do fine grained user/group control on a Linux system. would be a shame not to use it :)
[10:41] <gnychis> mssever: i don't see any panics in the kernel log, or any errors, it just sort of ends and then i see the messages from the next boot
[10:41] <mssever> gurkburk: Ubuntu uses the Debian format
[10:41] <skarface> !restrictedformats
[10:41] <ubotu> 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
[10:42] <gnychis> if the lights are not flashing, and the computer has locked up, what else could be the cause of it? what else can i check?
[10:42] <tsukasa> can tar handle zips
[10:42] <tsukasa> or just tars
[10:42] <mssever> gurkburk: So the fact that it says Debian in the package isn't necessarity a problem...Try installing it. If it doesn't work, then you know it wasn't for you
[10:42] <mssever> gnychis: Can you SSH in?
[10:42] <Jowi> brb
[10:42] <DoctorMO> tsukasa: a tool is designed to do one thing and one thing well: mantra
[10:43] <gurkburk> mssever:  there is actually comments by the guy who posted that link (for the .deb file for installing wine) that you hafto make sure ubuntu doesnt autoupdate it.. so im guessing im actually doing something wrong
[10:43] <gnychis> mssever: not sure, its my only machine i have access to right now :\
[10:43] <Ackdar> how do I change the resolution and/or default monitor?
[10:43] <Java4ever> ho to exit x server and install damn nvidia drivers?
[10:43] <mssever> gurkburk: There are several wine repositories for Ubuntu
[10:44] <gurkburk> I get the "could not open <filename>" and it complains of package being corrupt or permissions being set wrong
[10:44] <flush> anyone runs apache2 with ssl ?
[10:44] <tsukasa> whats the command line for unzipping then
[10:44] <juju_> i need help for a wifi card : Intel 2915ABG
[10:44] <gurkburk> mssever:  I have made sure it has read/write and execute permissions
[10:44] <mssever> tsukasa: zip and tar are two different programs
[10:44] <murkyMurk> Java4ever: there are many ways. for you i recommend using easyubuntu
[10:44] <DoctorMO> tsukasa: unzip
[10:44] <gnychis> actually, there may be an error that is correlated with my system locksup: "Sep 25 16:43:29 x60s kernel: [  725.208000]  rtc: lost some interrupts at 2048Hz."
[10:45] <MasonUS> I'm having trouble getting audacity to recognize my microphone.
[10:45] <gurkburk> mssever:  this is a "special" (not sure whats changed with it) wine-package to fix an error with wow crashing everytime you try to logout, I have managed to install "regular" wine several times
[10:45] <PureEvilGeek> what would cause a charactor to just randomly drop dead?
[10:45] <mssever> gurkburk: Try sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[10:45] <ztiger> exit
[10:45] <PureEvilGeek> er wrong channel lol

[10:47] <mssever> gurkburk: Then the package is probably either bad or Debian-specific; I suspect the former
[10:47] <juju_> how can help me ?

[10:54] <tretle> use ubuntu instead
[10:54] <samir> stefg im on live cd right now
[10:54] <darkchr0n0s> using ununtu only
[10:54] <tretle> if u want games then petition for ports or get a console
[10:54] <kkathman> tretle:  amen
[10:54] <stefg> samir: good. can you access the partitions on harddsik from there without error ?
[10:54] <gurkburk> the win vs linux isnt exactly the solution to the wow-freeze problem im having tough, and tbh, its the first time ive ever seen that solution suggested in a linux/ubuntu channel :p
[10:54] <Crozar> is bootcamp better then GRUB? the technology for Apple Bootcamp says that its more intelligent and Quicker with Genuine potential to Dual boot i was guessing if UbuntU can be configured with bootcamp? can it work?
[10:54] <darkchr0n0s> gurkburk, lol
[10:54] <samir> stefg i can mount my windows partition but not my linux partition
[10:54] <murkyMurk> gurkburk: it's the easy and obvious solution
[10:55] <tsukasa> Crozar: the technology doesnt say anything, apples marketing department does
[10:55] <samir> stefg also qtparted sais at mz linux partition that its fileszstem type is unknown
[10:55] <skarface> Crozar: how is it more intelligent or quicker? according to whom? apple? hehe
[10:55] <bruenig> Crozar, it said that in reference to grub or in reference to windows bootloaders?
[10:55] <Remorse_> ??
[10:55] <murkyMurk> gurkburk: best linux wow solution is cedega,not wine
[10:55] <bruenig> it is a very odd claim
[10:55] <Crozar> lol? where do you quote that byurselves?
[10:55] <gregf> wondering if anyone can help me with an ati video card
[10:55] <stefg> samir: what device name has your linux parition (/dev/sda2) ?
[10:55] <darkchr0n0s> murkyMurk, how much is cedega ?
[10:56] <gurkburk> murkyMurk: not really an easy solution is it, having dual operating systems reloging back and forth all the time you want different applications
[10:56] <kkathman> !ati | gregf
[10:56] <gurkburk> murkyMurk:  doesnt cedega cost money?
[10:56] <samir> stefg its /dev/sda3
[10:56] <ubotu> gregf: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:56] <bascule> an intelligent bootloader, so you can fit AI into the MBR ... never knew we had come so far
[10:56] <gregf> i went to the  ATI/AMD fglrx in Ubuntu Edgy, step by step
[10:56] <gregf> and was a no go
[10:56] <pwn> I have my samba setup correctly, and the home folder is shared. How do I add an NTFS partition to my share?
[10:56] <murkyMurk> darkchr0n0s: a few dollars less than wow costs and a lot less than vista
[10:56] <stefg> samir: ok, so open a terminal and enter 'sudo fsck /dev/sda3'
[10:56] <kkathman> !ati | gregf
[10:56] <Crozar> the question is if ubuntu can recognize bootcamp and bootcamp to reconfigure to a state we're to establish other Operating Systems without its features this will make people buy Mac Books :) more slicker then any laptop look
[10:56] <Mr-Snick> ConstyXIV: I'm having trouble mounting... Help ?
[10:56] <gregf> yea ati radeon 9600pro
[10:57] <murkyMurk> !tomboy
[10:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tomboy - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:57] <darkchr0n0s> bah..  cannot afford any.. :(
[10:57] <kkathman> gregf please see the link that ubotu told you about
[10:57] <hwilde> gregf, we have several of those radeon cards working with no problem.
[10:57] <darkchr0n0s> ati works fine with prop. drivers
[10:57] <hwilde> gregf, if yours doesn't work and you tried fglrx it might be a bad card
[10:57] <reya276> I guess no one can help me with this Tablet issue?
[10:57] <Crozar> samir: do you play Games?
[10:57] <unics> how can i find what version a specific program is ? (apache, bind, etc)
[10:58] <hwilde> unics, which
[10:58] <lImItaO> it's possible to watch foreing tv stations in linux?
[10:58] <lImItaO> I mean, in windows i use internet tv
[10:58] <Crozar> its possible to watch any kind of TV yes
[10:58] <lImItaO> "internet tv"
[10:58] <Cyclopes> hello, i'm trying to unload bttv using "rmmod bttv" but i get : ERROR: Module bttv is in use by bt878
[10:58] <darkchr0n0s> reya276, try to explain a bit more.. i cannot help, but ppl might have some idea
[10:58] <samir> Crozar im playing wow , but right now i have a one month break behind due to exams
[10:58] <gregf> I will give that a try, is setting up dual lcds hard with the ati
[10:58] <darkchr0n0s> 1 month for exams !!
[10:58] <lImItaO> Crozar: Internet streams?
[10:58] <hwilde> Cyclopes, kill the process first
[10:58] <bascule> Cyclopes: rmmod bt878 first
[10:58] <Crozar> lImItaO: just get ( win E ) it can execute windows softwares
[10:58] <darkchr0n0s> i study 2 hours for exams
[10:59] <unics> hwilde, could you give me an example please ?
[10:59] <bascule> Cyclopes: but yes, kill processes too
 you should think twice before recomending cedega... it may work better than wine for games but the fact that it the offspring of wine(opensource project) and they charge cedega is just Hilarius... Plus windows emulation may be a good alternative for the time being but encouraging people to give up on native ports as cedega generally does is just wrong
[10:59] <hwilde> unics, which ls
[10:59] <Whitor> Is there support for fingerprint readers in ubuntu?
[10:59] <lImItaO> Crozar: but i think this program (InternetTV) needs Windows media player
[10:59] <Crozar> samir:  so ur a gamer ? i hope your not addicted it can be 7ram if it conflicts your life
[10:59] <lImItaO> and i don't want to install it
[10:59] <ConstyXIV> Whitor: there is, but I don't think it's very easy to set up
[10:59] <agroker> is there a way to install Ubuntu on the PC without CD drive (similarly to Debian from flash drive)?
[10:59] <lImItaO> puaaaaagggg
[11:00] <Whitor> ConstyXIV: thats ok... I've been around a bit
[11:00] <stefg> !install | agroker
[11:00] <ubotu> agroker: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[11:00] <murkyMurk> tretle: as an ex Cedega subscriber I can state that it works better for games than wine. Yes, it is based on wine but it is also enhanced
[11:00] <unics> hwilde: for 'which ls' i get: /bin/ls. I asked about how to find out what _version_ the program installed on my system is (like ubuntu's version is 6.06 for example)
[11:00] <hwilde> unics, sry that doesn't work the way I thought :)  it just gives you the path to the binary
[11:00] <Whitor> ConstyXIV: thanks... I just wanted to know if one existed before I started chasing a white elephant
[11:00] <unics> yeah :P
[11:00] <Crozar> lImItaO: you can use other programs , similar , and if you still love windows i hope you have the CD , because i think you heard of VM ware , well theyr is a better one i can recommend for you its called VirtualBox that can emulate windows and do what u want :)
[11:00] <hwilde> unics, which program specifically
[11:00] <docgnome> what is the status of WPA2 support in Ubuntu?
[11:00] <Crozar> !virtualbox
[11:00] <ubotu> VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox
[11:00] <gurkburk> I just did some reading of cedega as im getting incredibly bored and fed up with *"& wine... you can actually pay what, $5, for 1 month, and then you dont hafto keep paying monthly fees to run it?
[11:00] <Whitor> or red herring ... or some colored animal
[11:00] <samir> Crozar i absoluetly agree :( well i have some times when i play like hell, but right now im being verz modest ;)
[11:00] <Whitor> or fish
[11:00] <gurkburk> I thought you had to have an active license, or similiar, to use their product
[11:00] <lImItaO> I know both programs
[11:01] <agroker> stefg, tnx
[11:01] <unics> hwilde, well, isn't there a general command that would handle all programs ?
[11:01] <lImItaO> but I was asking for a native program
[11:01] <lImItaO> or mplayer with some commands
[11:01] <lImItaO> xDD
[11:01] <murkyMurk> gurkburk: yep, once you have it just stop paying and use it
[11:01] <hwilde> unics, typically you can execute the program   --version  and it will show you
[11:01] <Crozar> samir:  at2mnoon be ba3'6 ilketab wa takferon beba2'6 ?
[11:01] <murkyMurk> the fee is support, not usage
[11:01] <Mr-Snick> ConstyXIV: nvm
 I understand your point but that doesnt stop the fact they are selling partial ex opensource code in their own name... I dont see them paying ex wine contributers for their contribution to the cedega project
[11:01] <unics> hwilde: for apache for example, how would i know ?
[11:01] <docgnome> I'm looking to get a PCI wireless card that works with WPA or preferably WPA2 and that works for netinstall and out of the box.
[11:01] <gurkburk> murkyMurk: damn.. $5 aint shit, I could just grab that asap tbh
[11:02] <Crozar> samir:  you believe some and you disbelieve some?
[11:02] <samir> Crozar well not that freaky :D
[11:02] <Crozar> so you say its freaky?
[11:02] <samir> ;(
[11:02] <skarface> tretle: they're doing it according to the terms of the licenses involved. there's nothing shady, as you imply.
[11:02] <Crozar> are u on windows?
[11:02] <bascule> tretle: there is nothing in GPL licence that says you can't sell code, it totally permits it, "Free as in Speech not as in beer"
[11:02] <Crozar> samiyou are in windows or ubuntu?
[11:02] <murkyMurk> tretle: they have instructions for how to download original wine & use it. trust me, cedega is LEAGUES ahead of wine in interfaCE and usefullness
[11:02] <samir> na im on kubuntu lice cd right now, because my partition is fucked up
[11:02] <lubosz> hi, how do i mount mmc_host ? sd card reader
[11:03] <LjL> !language | samir
[11:03] <ubotu> samir: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:03] <samir> sorry
[11:03] <Crozar> samir: type in server /j #crozar
[11:03] <hwilde> unics, in the apache directory there is a VERSION file or RELEASENOTES that says the version
[11:03] <bascule> tretle: You can sell ubuntu discs for any money you like
[11:03] <reya276> OK here is the issue, I followed this guide (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wacom) to get my Wacom Bamboo tablet working, but for some reason it won't turn on (the blu light circle in the middle). So when I go to either Inkscape or the Gimp it say there are no iput devices
[11:03] <tretle> yes... and as it was greatly publicized over the last few months... that licence was flawed... I still count it as plagiarism
[11:03] <slackern> hwilde, you mean something like 'apt-cache show apache2' to show version? sorry maybe not what you where looking for just started reading
[11:04] <tretle> its wine repackaged and sold as if their own
[11:04] <lubosz> how do i mount a sd card reader?
[11:04] <VSpike> bah. why does helix player / helix plugin so egregiously suck in every way
[11:04] <VSpike> I need my radio 4 fix
[11:04] <murkyMurk> tretle: NO, It is much much more than that
[11:04] <tretle> with mods to increase compatability in requested games
[11:04] <bascule> tretle: not plagarism, all copyrights will be present and correct
[11:04] <xuser> Hi, what's the default font in Ubuntu? for gnome.
[11:04] <seth_m> tretle: The cedega people forked the X11 code (as that license allows). This is legal and honest, if not seedy.
[11:05] <skarface> tretle: maybe it doesn't much matter if people want to pay someone else to make wine work right for them
[11:05] <teratoma_> I want to temporarily make the virtual resolution of my X desktop larger, how do i do that ?
[11:05] <VSpike> is there any way to make the player use alsa or arts or esd?
[11:05] <teratoma_> like i want to pretend my res is 2000x1800 on my laptop, and take a screenshot
[11:05] <murkyMurk> xuser: yes, gnome...kubuntu uses kde, xubuntu uses xfce
[11:05] <tretle> the cedega fad will ware off in the next year if you ask me
[11:06] <xuser> murkyMurk: gnome font?
[11:06] <fsckr> cedega been around too long to just fade off
[11:06] <murkyMurk> xuser: eh?
[11:06] <tretle> there's nothing unique about it... can easily be done for wine.. and freely distributed to people
[11:06] <skarface> fsckr: yes but tretl doesn't like it so it's only a matter of time
[11:06] <Markive> anybody know of an app that lets me drag files on and off my ipaq hx4700?
[11:06] <xuser> murkyMurk: my question was what is the default font in ubuntu.
[11:07] <fsckr> skarface :)
[11:07] <Markive> like active sync
[11:07] <seth_m> xuser: Most of the system stuff is Bistream Vera Sans, I think.
[11:07] <slackern> xuser, i think it's sans 10 im in gutsy right now but i belive it's the same
[11:07] <murkyMurk> xuser: lol, sorry, misread..depends on app.
[11:07] <fsckr> !gutsy
[11:07] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[11:07] <fsckr> ugh still no date
[11:07] <reya276> is there any way to install the windows drivers for this Wacom Bamboo Tablet to work on Ubuntu
[11:07] <Markive> !activesync
[11:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about activesync - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
 Im just saying.... wine will most likely be split for different tasks... Wine-Games, Wine-Apps etc
[11:08] <Markive> !sync
[11:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sync - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:08] <slackern> xuser, window title font is sans 10 bold and fixed width font is monospace 10
[11:08] <tretle> this way the different forks can concentrate on the different sectors
[11:08] <fsckr> !multisync
[11:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about multisync - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:08] <murkyMurk> xuser: just checked, default desktop font is sans
[11:08] <fsckr> !multi-sync
[11:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about multi-sync - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:08] <fsckr> ugh
[11:08] <tretle> and then cedega will become a waste of money
[11:08] <xuser> ok thanks all.
 opensync
[11:09] <SpaWn_mania2008> hey y'all
[11:09] <seth_m> xuser: You can modify as you like with System>Preferences>Font.

[11:10] <unics> while running a program i get this error: /bin/bash^M:bad interpreter: No such file or directory, any idea what it could mean ?
[11:10] <fsckr> PureEvilGeek amarok
[11:10] <newdude> its not a matter of which mplayer im using
[11:10] <newdude> all of them dont play the codecs anymore
[11:10] <bascule> PureEvilGeek: Amarok ? <-- it is by the way :)
[11:11] <fsckr> newdude roll back the previous kernel
[11:11] <PureEvilGeek> ah thank you
[11:11] <newdude> kk
[11:11] <xuser> seth_m: great, thanks.
[11:11] <PureEvilGeek> now i have to go to there channel and trying ot get it to work
[11:11] <fsckr> newdude see if it works
[11:11] <pike_> unics: looks like you uploaded a file from windows or soemthing right?
[11:11] <unics> pike_: yeah
[11:11] <fsckr> PureEvilGeek ask in here
[11:11] <bascule> PureEvilGeek: no, it should just work
[11:11] <fsckr> its related
[11:11] <coucou747> bye
[11:12] <unics> pike_: is there a way i could get it to work ?
[11:12] <filthpig> hi, does anyone know how well Ubuntu will work on a Levono Thinkpad T60?
[11:12] <VSpike> unics: there's a sed recipe somewhere for stripping windows line endings
[11:12] <mneptok> filthpig: perfectly except for the fingerprint reader
[11:12] <bascule> filthpig: if it is centrino badged, rather well most likely
[11:12] <hhp2k> Hey everyone, does anyone know of an app that can successfully transfer songs to an ipod?
[11:12] <pike_> unics: do this to strip the characters: sed -i 's/this//g'   where this is hit ctrl-v keep holding ctrl and hit m  that should give
[11:12] <mneptok> hhp2k: iTunes.
[11:13] <pike_> ^m
[11:13] <Neroniou1> my ubuntu "fiesty fawn" version freezes after about 30seconds anyone have any ideas?
[11:13] <bascule> hhp2k: gnomad2 or amarok
[11:13] <fsckr> hhp2k gtkpod
[11:13] <PureEvilGeek> fsckr: i have one database on a remote computer (where my music is) and i want to use amarok remotely of that music and that database (which i do already on one system). and i want to know how to add a second system to that
[11:13] <mneptok> hhp2k: other than that? not many any more.
[11:13] <pike_> unics: so like sed -i 's/this//g' filename
[11:13] <unics> ok, wait :P
[11:13] <murkyMurk> hhp2k: used to just mount it and copy them over
[11:13] <hhp2k> Rythmbox recognizes my shuffle and puts songs in there, but the shuffle never plays those songs.. I tried installing itunes in ubuntu with wine and when it finally worked it told me the software for transferring songs to the ipod was broken.
[11:13] <mneptok> PureEvilGeek: you want to stream music off one machine to others?
[11:13] <PureEvilGeek> i'm in ubuntu on both. i think i have to share the music to both systems (and possibly to the same location) and then i can use the database. but maybe i'm luckly and the database can map to the music since they are on the same box
[11:13] <anthony> hhp2k: Banshee, Exaile, GtkPod, Juice
[11:13] <fsckr> PureEvilGeek do you mean create a playlist dir from another pc?
[11:14] <hhp2k> Does anyone have any experience with successfully getting songs onto an ipod with any of these programs?
[11:14] <pike_> unics: youll see em if ya open it in vim too at the endof each line
[11:14] <fsckr> hhp2k yes its not difficult
[11:14] <VSpike> unics: http://www.student.northpark.edu/pemente/sed/sed1line.txt
[11:14] <bascule> PureEvilGeek: i reckon the database code in amarok will handle that no bother, but did you mean remotly contro amarok too?
[11:14] <PureEvilGeek> mneptok: system A has mysql and the music, system B created the database in mysql for amarok, i want to access the music using the same database in system C
[11:14] <anthony> hhp2k: Yes, with banshee, exaile, and gtkpod.
[11:14] <unics> ok, it worked, thanks guys :)
[11:14] <murkyMurk> hhp2k: yes, like i told you, i mounted manually and ransferred them
[11:15] <hhp2k> Okay. I'll try all of those.. Thanks a lot everyone!
[11:15] <PureEvilGeek> bascule: na not yet. i'll be doing remote controlling when i get a 3rd sytem up
[11:15] <magnetron> how do i add persistent boot options?
[11:15] <fsckr> so PureEvilGeek you basically have 2 pcs wanting to see one database?
[11:15] <VSpike> magnetron: to grub?
[11:15] <unics> hmm
[11:15] <PureEvilGeek> fsckr: yes
[11:15] <magnetron> VSpike: yes
[11:15] <bascule> PureEvilGeek: database will work if you have the network/logins/permissions working, temote control amaron is ropey 3rd party extensions in python or ruby and such
[11:16] <unics> now i get another error: : syntax error: operand expected (error token is " ")
[11:16] <PureEvilGeek> fsckr: which isn't an issue. i just want to make sure amarok when it creates the database uses the real location of the music or if it uses the location relitive to where its creating it from
[11:16] <mneptok> PureEvilGeek: why use MySQL when mt-daapd will do what you want?
[11:16] <VSpike> magnetron: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:16] <nexttwo> how do i force quit??
[11:16] <fsckr> PureEvilGeek if i am understanding you correctly directing amarok from the other pc would be no different than directing from the other if that makes any sense :)
[11:16] <pike_> unics: what is this?
[11:16] <magnetron> VSpike: won't that break the automagic kernel list?
[11:16] <PureEvilGeek> mneptok: because i have mysql running and gives me other options. its already setup its just the third system i'm wondering about
[11:16] <unics> pike_: it should generate a *.html page.
[11:17] <unics> pike_: should i paste the code somewhere ?
[11:17] <nexttwo> my applications freeze how do i close it?
[11:17] <nexttwo> \?
[11:17] <PureEvilGeek> fsckr: yeah that makes sence. i just don't want it to say "oh the music isn't at the same place (mapping shares to different spots locally)"
[11:17] <VSpike> magnetron: nope .. you need to look for "kopt" and "defopt" and the like
[11:17] <kreib> anyone know how to control remote computer, and have it use its own display ?
[11:18] <pike_> unics: its a script? try bash filename  maybe its a prob with dash which is what /bin/sh points to in uubntu
[11:18] <badspace> hi, butting in here... can someone give me a link to a pclinuxos chan?
[11:18] <VSpike> magnetron: read the comments, they explain pretty well.  Don't uncomment them, just edit them.  They control how the automagic list gets generated
[11:18] <fsckr> PureEvilGeek it shouldn't do that Just direct it to same place as the other pc
[11:18] <savvas> nexttwo: you mean this? killall -9 application-name
[11:18] <skarface> kreib: synergy maybe?
[11:18] <chalcedony> nexttwo: you could also try control c
[11:18] <badspace> .........
[11:18] <bobdrakken> i have a question about k3b
[11:18] <magnetron> VSpike: if i edit it , how can i regenerate the autolist?

[11:24] <chrisjs169|brb> I have two sound cards in my computer - one doesn't work though.  The volume controls on my keyboard seem to be changing the volume/muting the card that doesn't work, instead of the one I'm using.  What do I need to do to change that?
[11:24] <guy_> !NAT
[11:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nat - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:24] <CaptainMorgan> ooh that's nice... xkill
[11:25] <bascule> chrisjs169|brb: try r-click mixer file -> change device
[11:25] <Poz> so this is like windows ime
[11:25] <Poz> not bad
[11:25] <nexttwo> ahaha
[11:25] <guy_> can anyone please help me? I'm about to kick this POS out the window. How do I add nat routing to share my public connection with my private network?
[11:25] <chrisjs169|brb> bascule: it's already set to ICH5 (AC'97), which it should be
[11:26] <guy_> in the dread XP it's the ICS thing
[11:26] <bascule> chrisjs169|brb: try #alsa
[11:26] <QueenAnya> I have asked this question quite a few times but just can't figure out what is wrong. I am using Evolution 2.10.1 and I am trying to recieve and send mail using my earthlink account on it. I am receiving mail just fine but when I try to send mail it asks for my password and then says nable to authenticate to SMTP server. Bad authentication response from server. Please help me I am very stupid when it comes to computers I have tried the
[11:26] <QueenAnya> earthlink site for help, they said they didnt support this program I have no Idea what to do
[11:26] <savvas> Poz: no problem :) if it doesn't work, go to system > preferences > keyboard > layouts (add your language here) and layout options > group shift/lock behavior, check the box next to "alt+shift" and "both alt keys"
[11:26] <chrisjs169|brb> bascule: ok, thanks
[11:26] <badspace> can't remember who helped me, but thanx, reinstalling worked. but do you know what could have happened between turning the machine off and then on could have done to screw it up?
[11:26] <overclucker> i'm choosing a dsl isp in the usa/westcoast area, any suggestions/declarations of loyalty?
[11:27] <Poz> i am also having a problem getting my mic to work also in ubuntu
[11:27] <guy_> overclucker, just steer clear of COX cable, they refused to inspect my line because I use Linux
[11:27] <Poz> 'i have a head set with a mic on it
[11:27] <overclucker> badspace, maybe you corrupted the fs journal
[11:27] <Poz> do i need to change anyoptions to fix it
[11:27] <anthony> guy_: how'd they pull that off?  (And why did you let them?)
[11:27] <skarface> guy_: cox never did that to me
[11:27] <savvas> badspace: you didn't probably restart the machine properly, you had firefox open, it messed up your config and while checking the files it got deleted - just a plain scenario :P
[11:28] <badspace> Overclucker: how?
[11:28] <nexttwo> CaptainMorgan:how do i backup only app;ications?
[11:28] <VSpike> QueenAnya: does earthlink actually require smtp authentication?
[11:28] <wabiD> leopard finder looks more like nautilus now
[11:28] <overclucker> badspace, was this a regular shutdown or an incomplete one?
[11:28] <guy_> the ds I just talked to (the first one with the second I withheld that I'm using Linux) said they won't inspect the line if they can't configure the pc, and that they can't do that with linux
[11:29] <nexttwo> jrib:how do i backup only applications?
[11:29] <mneptok> overclucker: where on the left coast?
[11:29] <badspace> hmmm, regular.
[11:29] <CaptainMorgan> nexttwo, for one, find its equivalent in your home directory for personal settings.. thus for xchat, I would copy /home/captainmorgan/.xchat
[11:29] <overclucker> portlan oregon
[11:29] <QueenAnya> VSpike, thats what they told me
[11:29] <jrib> nexttwo: what do you mean?  Create a record of what is installed and what isn't?  Or save settings for applications?
[11:29] <mneptok> overclucker: http://www.iinet.com
[11:29] <overclucker> oreeeygun
[11:29] <anthony> guy_: sounds like you're a pushover - they know as well as we do that's unrelated
[11:29] <skarface> guy_: considering the PC has nothing to do with the line, I would say that's mostly irrelevant
[11:29] <CaptainMorgan> nexttwo, then find the app related info in /bin, /usr/bin and  and /usr/share
[11:29] <mneptok> overclucker: i used them exclusively in PDX
[11:29] <anthony> guy_: I wouldn't let those clowns touch my PC anyway
[11:29] <pike_> guy_: that is bull thell them to bring a laptop
[11:29] <guy_> pushover? I threatened to sue, they wouldn't budge
[11:29] <nexttwo> jirb:save all applications i downloaded.
[11:30] <guy_> anthony, I have no inention of letting them touch my pc
[11:30] <anthony> guy_: did you actually sue then?
[11:30] <Ackdar> how do I change the resolution and/or default monitor?
[11:30] <skarface> heh cox doesn't care about threats. they don't generally care if you're upset.
[11:30] <guy_> anthony, I'm waiting for a call back from my attorney, then I'm going to re create and record the call
[11:30] <CaptainMorgan> nexttwo, if you want to save applications that you download, simply save them to a specific folder and install in anohter
[11:30] <anthony> guy_: 'k, good luck.
[11:31] <guy_> now, nat routing? this should be easy right?
[11:31] <badspace> how do i scroll back up to read previous lines?
[11:31] <skarface> guy_: you probably agreed in some fine print that they don't have to configure non-windows stuff
[11:31] <sistom> how come when I leave and come back to my computer, after the screen saver has been playing and the computer has fallen asleep, when I move my mouse or something the screen saver comes back on the screen but it is frozen and then I can't do anything at all and I have to reboot the computer?
[11:31] <guy_> skarface, either way recording the call is going to make for very bad publicity for them
[11:31] <pike_> doesnt matter the line is still their responsibility
[11:31] <AskHL> badspace, that depends on the program you are using.
[11:31] <CaptainMorgan> nexttwo, typically you don't need to save applications... just make a list of the applications you have, then copy your personal settings folders.. that's what I do
[11:31] <skarface> guy_: they don't care
[11:31] <VSpike> QueenAnya: did you enable it in evolution?
[11:31] <badspace> askhl: yakuake
[11:32] <CaptainMorgan> and any data related to it
[11:32] <QueenAnya> Vspike, how would I enable it?? and what is it that I am enabling?
[11:32] <skarface> guy_: why are you using cox, if I might ask?
[11:32] <docgnome> does anyone have a D-Link DWL-G520 wireless card? http://www.dlink.com/products/?pid=12&sec=0
[11:32] <guy_> at any rate I called back and got someone who wasn't an idiot to send a tech
[11:32] <guy_> skarface, the dsl here is too slow to consider
[11:32] <skarface> guy_: because it's the only viable option. see. they don't care. :)
[11:32] <nexttwo> CaptinMorgan:how/?
[11:33] <dxdt> Help, my gnome-terminal will not start, ever.  It is really weird.  (Ubuntu 7.04 amd 65)
[11:33] <VSpike> QueenAnya: to pick up your mail, your system has to send your username & password to gain access to the incoming mail.  Used to be that outgoing mail servers would let anyone send anything anywhere, but these days they are becoming more and more locked down...
[11:33] <Poz> k i just installed japanese language support
[11:33] <wabiD> whats the easiest way to make my panel at the bottom of the screen thicker
[11:33] <guy_> nobody knows anything about nat?
[11:33] <wabiD> or taller i gues
[11:33] <Poz> and i pres left+alt to switch
[11:33] <VSpike> QueenAnya: smtp authentication just means that your mail program has to send username & password to *send* mail too
[11:33] <nexttwo> is there a app called win west/?
[11:33] <dxdt> wabiD: You should be able to right click and then change its size
[11:33] <Poz> right
[11:34] <dxdt> wabiD: Under properties
[11:34] <Ackdar> I tried the resolution option, but it only gives me 640x480

[11:34] <guy_> this is crazy, it's 3 lines in xp, it should be even easier in Linux
[11:34] <wabiD> dumb question, thanks dxdt
[11:34] <dxdt> wabiD: No prob
[11:35] <VSpike> QueenAnya: in evolution, go to Edit->Preferences.  Select "Mail Accounts" on the left.  Select your account and click "Edit"...

[11:35] <skarface> guy_: what exactly was your issue?
[11:35] <nexttwo> anyone know a app called win west/?
[11:35] <docgnome> pastor: do you have synaptic open?
[11:35] <guy_> fsckr, I'm trying to bridge my public connection to my private network
[11:35] <pastor> yes
[11:35] <docgnome> pastor: and you are trying to add an app with apt-get?
[11:36] <docgnome> pastor: close syntaptic and try again.
[11:36] <fsckr> silly question why not use a router?
[11:36] <pastor> sure am
[11:36] <pastor> ok, thx
[11:36] <VSpike> QueenAnya: select the "sending email" tab, and enable "Server requires authentication".  Under Authentication, hit "Check for supported types"
[11:36] <QueenAnya> VSpike, okay there

[11:38] <VSpike> QueenAnya: next time you try to send, it will ask for a password, so put in yours and it should not ask you again
[11:38] <PureEvilGeek> wabiD: i just typed in search "amarok" and it brought up nothing
[11:38] <guy_> yeah, i frankensteined them together at no cost, any other comments on that skarface?

[11:43] <lance> hello! this is the first time I've used a chat.  I've been using Kubuntu for three years as a WEB development environment.
[11:43] <andrew_____> MasterShrek: not sure exactly how to do that, can you help walk me through it please (total newb)
[11:43] <Poz> so i dont need to install jp text ?
[11:43] <dwxreaper> vader: did you have those problems before with reboot, it must be a normal file recovery process
[11:43] <dwxreaper> but i want to understand it
[11:43] <andrew_____> ok i just opened 'synaptic package manager'
[11:43] <Phlogi> andrew_____: now search for gstreamer
[11:43] <fsckr> guy_ also when you get a chance i stumble on this http://www.ipcop.org/index.php
[11:44] <overclucker> mneptok, so i purchase a dsl line, without the isp service, and get iinet service?
[11:44] <Phlogi> MasterShrek: hey ;) I have now a little problem with ndiswrapper + hibernate to disk, do you a clue?
[11:44] <andrew_____> ok i have the search results.  what is my next step?
[11:44] <guy_> fsckr, ok, the client looks exactly as it should
[11:44] <MasterShrek> andrew_____, right click on all pacakages that have a green box and click reinstall
[11:44] <Phlogi> exactly :)
[11:44] <MasterShrek> Phlogi, linux doesnt work very well with hibernate and stuff, it hasnt ever i dont think
[11:44] <godzirra> What package do I have to install to get the "Fixed" font for Xorg?   Anyone?
[11:44] <fsckr> guy_ on the server what do you have as the gateway ip?
[11:45] <guy_> fsckr, ip= 192.168.0.200 gateway= 192.168.0.1 dns = 192.168.0.1/68.2.16.30
[11:45] <fsckr> guy_ thats on the server?
[11:45] <MasterShrek> godzirra, why do u need that font so bad?
[11:45] <Phlogi>  it does a perfect job on my gentoo machine.... anyone knows where the config files are in ubuntu for module unloading/reloading and that stuff? I think that should do the trick with ndiswrapper...
[11:45] <guy_> fsckr, no, that the client
[11:45] <guy_> fsckr, did you want the server config for the private nic or the public nic?
[11:46] <godzirra> MasterShrek: because its trying to use it to start Xorg.
[11:46] <MasterShrek> godzirra, does xorg fail to load? cuz i dont think it generally does because of a font
[11:46] <fsckr> guy_ both

[11:53] <runemaste644> im trying to get to ubuntu-beginners from ircii
[11:53] <blue|palm> Lhademmo1, the (in my opinion) stupid 'philiosophy' of ubuntu wont allow it
[11:53] <nickrud> har har
[11:53] <blue|palm> Lhademmo1, no upgrades except for in distro upgrades
[11:53] <murkyMurk> found it linux-source d'oh!!
[11:53] <newdude> in fact what do i do with a script, i want to use the rules based on this page: http://lists.infodrom.org/linux-stammtisch/2006/att-0093/firewall.txt
[11:53] <newdude> how do i do this?
[11:54] <overclucker> !beginners
[11:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beginners - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:54] <Lhademmo1> blue|palm, why is that? (and what does "in distro upgrades" mean?)
[11:54] <blob256> I want to mount a filesystem using the command-line. How do I get a list of everything that is available for mounting?
[11:54] <blue|palm> Lhademmo1, they refuse to update the packages until the next distribution upgrade (like Gutsy is about to be released)
[11:54] <nickrud> blob256: sudo fdisk -l
[11:55] <nickrud> Lhademmo1: a 'stable' release is just that: no changes, except security & critical bugs
[11:55] <Ackdar_> never mind
[11:55] <blob256> nickrud: Perfect. I was just curious, are there any other methods of doing this?
[11:55] <Ackdar_> I think this is going to work
[11:55] <MasterShrek> azureus is a crappy client anyway, too bloated
[11:55] <Lhademmo1> blue|palm, but what if, for example, the given package is broken and/or crashes your system in Gutsy? Do you then have to wait half a year for an update?
[11:55] <blue|palm> Lhademmo1, while that is good... it also means no new features,c. bug fixes et
[11:55] <nickrud> blob256: there's probably a gui thing that does it, but I'm not aware of it
[11:56] <blue|palm> Lhademmo1, haha no.. those are the only sorts of problems they allow to be fixed
[11:56] <Lhademmo1> nickrud, then what should I get for feature updates etc.?
[11:56] <blob256> nickrud: Yeah, I was just wondering if there are any other frequently used command-line tools used for it (e.g. dmesg or something)
[11:56] <blue|palm> Lhademmo1, you wait half a year
[11:56] <nickrud> Lhademmo1: or, compile the source yourself
[11:56] <blue|palm> nickrud, which is tantamount to linux-suicide
[11:56] <MasterShrek> blob256, generally things taht get mounted start with hd or sd
[11:57] <MasterShrek> u can use tab completion in the command line to figure out what you want to mount
[11:57] <blob256> MasterShrek: Mmhmm
[11:57] <nickrud> blob256: that's the one I use, it's comprehensive; other methods may be out there.
[11:57] <overclucker> blue|palm, how so?
[11:57] <blue|palm> nickrud, once you get a whole load of newbies messing with root and m ake :-) boom goes security and stability anyway
[11:57] <blob256> nickrud: Mmm, ok, well it works great; thanks!
[11:57] <Lhademmo1> nickrud, I did that - but right now I have to run a terminal, do "cd pogrammer\azureus" and ".\azureus" to start it, where otherwise I would only have to use the command "azureus"...
[11:57] <nickrud> blue|palm: newbies learn by blowing up systems, and then become the next set of dev's
[11:57] <blue|palm> overclucker, why should everyone mess with compiling stuff just the new version of their fav program?
[11:57] <blue|palm> nickrud, lol... truth in that
[11:57] <mneptok> overclucker: you pay Qworst/Verizon for the line, and Infinity for the ISP service. the extra couple bucks is well worth it.
[11:58] <nickrud> Lhademmo1: drop a link to azureus in the ~/bin directory.
[11:58] <nickrud> Lhademmo1: and add a launcher to the menu for ease
[11:58] <elementz> guys, how can i utilize 'shred'-command for a directory - its subdirs, and all it's files? is there a solution for this? something like 'rm -rf' maybe?
[11:58] <blue|palm> nickrud, I wish they differentiated between applications and system software... system software is frozen, apps are not
[11:58] <mneptok> Lhademmo1: there is no Azureus source to compile
[11:58] <Lhademmo1> nickrud, wait, what? How?
[11:58] <skvidal> which package is generating this popup box: http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/figures/rnusers-totem_codec_search_video.png ?
[11:58] <MasterShrek> anyone know if those mobile broadband cards u can get from verizon or sprint work in linux?
[11:58] <mneptok> Lhademmo1: it's a Java app. it compiles at runtime.
[11:58] <Lhademmo1> mneptok, what? Where?
[11:59] <Lhademmo1> ah, yes, sry
[11:59] <magnetron> skvidal: synaptic
[11:59] <shellhack> hello
[11:59] <shellhack> everybody
[11:59] <nickrud> Lhademmo1: mkdir ~/bin && ln -s /path/to/azureus ~/bin/azureus
[11:59] <Lhademmo1> mneptok, well SOMETHING came out of that tarball :)
[11:59] <overclucker> blue|palm, well, tey may want to march specific optimizations . . .
[11:59] <magnetron> skvidal: i hope you won't try to uninstall it
[11:59] <shellhack> I have a problem with a audio cd's in my ubuntu 7.04
[11:59] <tatters> If I been running ubuntu since tribe 3 and fully patched is there any reason to start over again wiith the beta that due for release
[11:59] <skvidal> magnetron: and it's searching against mediubuntu repo?
[11:59] <pazifiq> hey, can anybody advice me a GOOD client for DC++?
[11:59] <Lhademmo1> nickrud, and that does make "azureus" a command?
[12:00] <mneptok> Lhademmo1: you have the most recent Azureus downloaded and uncompressed?
[12:00] <blue|palm> ubuntu is *almost* perfect, if not I had to go and download the new blender and manually install it the whole time... oh well :-D you can't have everything in one OS
[12:00] <magnetron> skvidal: did you enable the medibuntu repo?
[12:00] <Lhademmo1> mneptok, I've got it running atm
[12:00] <mneptok> ok then, nm
[12:00] <shellhack> the sound juicer dont play the .wav cds format
[12:00] <skvidal> magnetron: no - it just mentioned searching for unsupported repositories - that's what I was asking
[12:00] <nickrud> Lhademmo1: yes. Any file (or link) in ~/bin is on the PATH, which is where bash looks for programs.  see     echo $PATH
[12:00] <MasterShrek> blue|palm, i have blender in my repos
[12:00] <blue|palm> MasterShrek, 2.45?
[12:00] <pazifiq> guys, just a good dc++ client :/
[12:01] <MasterShrek> 2.44
[12:01] <nickrud> tatters: no, I don't expect to
[12:01] <magnetron> skvidal: i think it's referring to the universe or multiverse repos
[12:01] <MasterShrek> pazifiq, i think soulseek is one
[12:01] <blue|palm> MasterShrek, My point exactly... its small but it illustrates my point
[12:01] <nickrud> lol, I gave up on keeping up with every point release when I had to use my system for work
[12:01] <Lars_G_> Hi all.
[12:02] <shellhack> hello
[12:02] <Lhademmo1> nickrud, should it point to the directory of azureus ("~\pogrammer\azureus") or the actual runfile thingie, (~\pogrammer\azureus\.azureus)?
[12:02] <skvidal> magnetron: okay, cool. Thanks!
[12:02] <blue|palm> what if firefox 3 comes out 2 days after a distro release... do we wait half a year to use it and all its new stuff?
[12:02] <shellhack> Im the guy that cannot play audio cds in his computer
[12:02] <nn-bluetooth> ubuntu ROCKS!!!
[12:02] <nickrud> Lhademmo1: the actual program
[12:02] <pazifiq> soulseek? where from can i download it?
[12:02] <cyph3x> im actually hapy with firefox 2 so i dont care.......
[12:02] <mneptok> pazifiq: sudo apt-get install valknut
[12:02] <MasterShrek> pazifiq, nvm that, yea use valknut
[12:02] <Jack_Sparrow> blue|palm: can you guys take that to offtopic.. That is discussion.. this is a help room...
[12:03] <blue|palm> cyph3x, lol so am I, im just trying to make an example
[12:03] <Lars_G_> Odd request. is there any way i can switch a live system (workstation) from a feisty-i386 to a ubuntu+1-amd64
[12:03] <blue|palm> Jack_Sparrow, Im keeping quiet now...
[12:03] <Ackdar_> my system is not allowing me to change /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:03] <tsukasa> anyone know the name of that bloody effect which you move your mouse to the top right and shows all windows
[12:03] <tsukasa> i cant find it for the life of me
[12:03] <Ackdar_> with error: Read-only filesystem
[12:03] <blue|palm> tsukasa, scale
[12:03] <nn-bluetooth> is there such a channel as #ubuntu-chat?
[12:03] <mneptok> nn-bluetooth: #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:03] <blue|palm> tsukasa, its part of compiz, the plugin called scale
[12:03] <Lhademmo1> nickrud, should it then be "~\pogrammer\azureus\azureus" or "~\pogrammer\azureus\.azureus"?
[12:04] <wabiD> is there a reason my super key is mapped by default to Super+L
[12:04] <pazifiq> does Xarchive manager works well on ubuntu?
[12:04] <Lars_G_> using apt-get distupgrade or such
[12:04] <pazifiq> i mean on 7.04
[12:04] <cyph3x> lol well in that case... that kind of hting comes with the territory of being opensource...
