[12:04] <Keitaro> OMG! i fixed my audi problem :P for some reason the 'headphone' volume was low and master was maxed. so now i upped the 'headphone' volume and voila! sound :)
[12:04] <julian2495322> and i have a 3mb/s connection. anyone have this problem
[12:04] <soundray> alex_: also, make sure the two lines above "title Windows" are commented out (# at the beginning)
[12:05] <r7o> I would like to know if Gnash works under Ubuntu 64. any idea?
[12:05] <alex_> i actually have Windows Media Center edition
[12:06] <soundray> r7o: it's designed to work, but it's still experimental.
[12:06] <alex_> and when i click the one that is listed at the bottom of the file it takes me to my windows xp recovery
[12:06] <dstadulis> hagna: not sure ask someone more experienced
[12:06] <soundray> alex_: do a 'sudo fdisk -l' please and put the output on that website as well.
[12:06] <jim> r7o: I have an idea! we need 500 really hot chicks and a dance floor... and keep the RIAA out of the area for like 4 hours!
[12:06] <alex_> k
[12:06] <hagna> looks like I can boot in recovery mode woot
[12:06] <r7o> Hmm... I installed it under Sflack 64 (Slackware 64). Niet... It does not do the job.
[12:07] <MasterShrek> r7o, im using nspluginwrapper right now, seems to work fine
[12:07] <soundray> jim: you are being exceptionally unhelpful -- can I suggest you go to #ubuntu-offtopic and leave this channel for ubuntu support?
[12:07] <guy_> 'kkkk
[12:07] <r7o> Wha, worse still (I heard)....
[12:07] <Keitaro> how do i start gparted again? :P thnx ^_^
[12:08] <soundray> r7o: I tried it in Ubuntu feisty 64, that didn't work either, but nspluginwrapper works well there.
[12:08] <alex_> there it is
[12:08] <alex_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38961/
[12:08] <jim> soundray: do you think the original poster is now now thinking of a better way to pose his question? do you think that would help him get better responses? do you think that would get the helpers to relax?
[12:08] <MasterShrek> Keitaro, type gparted in a terminal
[12:08] <jim> soundray: and finally... bite me
[12:08] <r7o> Soundray: Can you play streams like cnn.com ( btw excuse the wrong choice) or yourfilehost.com?
[12:09] <MasterShrek> jim, #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:09] <Keitaro> MasterShrek: yeah thnx :) but i need admin acces :P
[12:09] <MasterShrek> Keitaro, sudo gparted
[12:09] <Keitaro> MasterShrek: thnx that did the trick :)
[12:09] <Veinor> when should you use gksudo, and when should you use sudo?
[12:09] <jim> MasterShrek: I choose how I help or I charge money. are you prepared to pay my rate?
[12:09] <MasterShrek> !gksu
[12:09] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[12:09] <alex_> so soundray what be wrong there
[12:09] <Marbug> I still got the problem that my linux doesn't find any cd-rom drive
[12:10] <soundray> r7o: I can't test it right now, but it works with youtube
[12:10] <LjL> jim, i think i'm seeing an offtopic discussion here.
[12:10] <Ze_> jim : I think he's saying less bitching :p
[12:10] <A2t3c13> these are the last words i am typing in ubuntu since my printer is making me go back to xp and i dont have enough space for a dual install
[12:10] <jim> good.
[12:10] <soundray> alex_: have you made the changes I suggested?
[12:10] <Veinor> so is there ever any time when you shouldn't use gksudo, but you should use sudo instead?
[12:10] <alex_> yes
[12:10] <Marbug> when I use the livecd my cd-rom drive is on /dev/hda but when I'm in the installed one, hda doesn't exist, anyone who can help me with solvoing that problem ?
[12:10] <soundray> alex_: and tried with those?
[12:10] <amio> hi please I need som ehelp I have radeon rv350 9600 fglrx I have tried to install xgl-* then when I restarted the pc I get black screen with mouse cursor nothing else how to solve the problem? I tried to autoremove xgl and all its companent also tried to remove then add fglrx companents restrtaed pc and xserver but same problem any one knows?
[12:10] <Keitaro> how do i find out how much HDD space i have left?
[12:10] <alex_> well i havent tried them yet
[12:10] <jim> if you're not prepared to pay my rate, I choose how I deal with people, there is not the slightest possible negotiation on that point
[12:11] <Evanlec> Veinor, yea when ur running a CLI command
[12:11] <alex_> the changes i made just a few minutes ago i havent tried
[12:11] <MasterShrek> Marbug, is it /dev/hdc ?
[12:11] <Veinor> CLI?
[12:11] <alex_> should i try them now
[12:11] <PriceChild> !offtopic | jim
[12:11] <ubotu> jim: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:11] <hagna> nice distro
[12:11] <r7o> It's already something. I will try it. With Sflack the problem are the dependencies....
[12:11] <Marbug> nope, it doesn't exisyt eader
[12:11] <Evanlec> Veinor, command line interface
[12:11] <MasterShrek> Keitaro, type df in a terminal
[12:11] <Marbug> MasterShrek
[12:11] <jim> see above
[12:11] <svu> where are all ruby gems installed in ubuntu?
[12:11] <Keitaro> MasterShrek: thnx again :0
[12:11] <Veinor> ah.
[12:11] <LjL> jim, i think i'm *still* seeing offtopic discussion going on
[12:11] <soundray> PriceChild: I think it's a bot
[12:11] <r7o> Thank you.
[12:11] <jim> LjL: see above
[12:11] <thesaint4444> soundray - how do you set the label in cfdisk?
[12:11] <MasterShrek> jim, your mom doesnt charge anything
[12:12] <PriceChild> MasterShrek, please don't.
[12:12] <MasterShrek> sry, i couldnt resist
[12:12] <soundray> thesaint4444: I don't think you can. man mke2fs
[12:12] <Evanlec> lol
[12:12] <tim167> how can I auto login as root ?
[12:12] <PriceChild> jim fooo
[12:12] <LjL> jim: which one, exactly? the closest one is "see above", and the second closest deals with rates
[12:12] <alex_> I commented out that code and changed the root to  hd0,0
[12:12] <LjL> tim167: you can't, you don't, you shouldn't, you won't
[12:12] <DjViper> MasterShrek: keep comments like that to yourself
[12:12] <alex_> thats what you wanted me to do right
[12:12] <amio> hi please I need som ehelp I have radeon rv350 9600 fglrx I have tried to install xgl-* then when I restarted the pc I get black screen with mouse cursor nothing else how to solve the problem? I tried to autoremove xgl and all its companent also tried to remove then add fglrx companents restrtaed pc and xserver but same problem any one knows?
[12:12] <pike_> tim167: that sounds like a really bad idea. im assuming youre joking
[12:12] <RAdams> ljl: beat me to it
[12:12] <tim167> LjL i must !
[12:12] <LjL> tim167: why?
[12:12] <thesaint4444> soundray.. ok, thanks..
[12:12] <LjL> MasterShrek, that comment was totally out of place.
[12:13] <tim167> pike_ embedded system without keyboard...
[12:13] <alex_> soundray you there
[12:13] <jim> PriceChild: that response had potential to blow things out of proportion entirely... while I do feel pissoff as a result, I'm not (presently) responting to it
[12:13] <soundray> alex_: yes. If you're unsure, feel free to put the changed file up on the pastebin before you have a go.
[12:13] <MasterShrek> yea i spose haha, go ahead ban me
[12:13] <alex_> k
[12:13] <MasterShrek> i should be in +1 anyways
[12:13] <PriceChild> jim, this channel is for ontopic talk ONLY. That is support for the Ubuntu operating system.
[12:13] <LjL> MasterShrek, careful, there's enough of a mess in here that i might even be tempted to take the invitation
[12:13] <tim167> LjL i want to be able to shut down the computer without typing a password
[12:13] <jim> PriceChild: see above
[12:13] <alex_> pasting now
[12:14] <PriceChild> tim167, you can do that through gdm?
[12:14] <amio> any one see what I write I need help please
[12:14] <LjL> tim167, i shut down my computer without typing any passwords at all.
[12:14] <Evanlec> wtf, jim has to be a bot
[12:14] <jim> why should I repeat myself over and over again
[12:14] <Jordan_U> !paste > josh__
[12:14] <alex_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38962/
[12:14] <alex_> there is the new link
[12:14] <Evanlec> bye ;p
[12:14] <RAdams> amio: try reconfiguring xorg
[12:14] <tim167> LjL how do you do that ? without mouse or keyboard ?
[12:14] <RAdams> anyone have any idea why rhythmbox won't edit tags on a FLAC file?
[12:14] <amio> radams how to do so I can go there but configure what in it?
[12:14] <LjL> Today's mantra: those who feed the trolls aren't any better than them.
[12:15] <alex_> is that what you wanted me to do
[12:15] <LjL> tim167: ... without mouse or keyboard?
[12:15] <tim167> PriceChild, without a mouse or keyboard ?
[12:15] <inigomontoya> has anyone tried the new linuxmint?
[12:15] <Eldemon> SPEEDstream 4200 have drive usb for linux?
[12:15] <PriceChild> tim167, So you're ssh'ing into a headless server?
[12:15] <tim167> LjL yes, i want a keyboard-and mouseless sytem
[12:15] <RAdams> amio: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:15] <soundray> alex_: the comment is now out of date, because the Windows system is actually on /dev/hda1 (which is a different way of saying (hd0,0)). See if that entry boots you into Windows, if it doesn't, then I'm at my wit's end :)
[12:16] <LjL> tim167, then how would you be going to shut it down, anyway?
[12:16] <Evanlec> lol tim167 thats a new one
[12:16] <tim167> PriceChild, no i just use the computer with onther interfaces, midi and such
[12:16] <Flare183> how many drives can ubuntu handle?
[12:16] <alex_> OK i'll try it
[12:16] <amio> radams right now I am oning kde is it possible to do this form it?
[12:16] <alex_> i'll probably see you in a few minutes
[12:16] <RAdams> amio: terminal
[12:16] <pike_> Flare183: 4^82
[12:17] <RAdams> Does anyone know why my rhythmbox won't let me change id3 tags of FLAC files?
[12:17] <tim167> i have a keyboard but with only cerain keys, it's converted into a pedalboard, aside from that i have a midi controller, no other keyboard because i dont want to drag that along
[12:17] <LjL> tim167, you can always hit the power button, after you set GNOME up so that hitting the power button results in shutting down.
[12:17] <MasterShrek> Flare183, probably as many as you can throw at it
[12:17] <MasterShrek> RAdams, do you have write access to the files?
[12:17] <Flare183> wow
[12:17] <tim167> LjL nice! that's what i need, how do i set up Gnome like that ?
[12:17] <Flare183> but can it access Jaz or zip drives
[12:17] <LjL> tim167: i don't use GNOME so i don't have the exact procedure, but i'm confident it's possible. somewhere in System / Administration or System / Preferences i'd assume.
[12:17] <RAdams> mastershrek: yes
[12:17] <PriceChild> tim167, ahh.... well if you have no real way of interfacing with it then :/
[12:18] <Keitaro> how can i find out my video card details?
[12:18] <MasterShrek> tim167, power settings
[12:18] <MasterShrek> RAdams, i dunno, lemme find a flac once and try it...
[12:18] <tim167> MasterShrek, thanks, i'll have a look
[12:18] <LjL> PriceChild: do you know how to set up the power button to shutdown by default in GNOME?
[12:18] <pike_> Flare183: the first was a joke but your psu will balk before ubuntu will and yes to jazz and zip i believe
[12:18] <PriceChild> *looks*
[12:18] <RAdams> mastershrek: thanks
[12:18] <hilikus> hey guys
[12:18] <amio> RADAMS ok I have done configured it as an ati
[12:18] <Flare183> ok
[12:18] <amio> radamsI will restart xserver then check or better to shutdown pc?
[12:18] <hilikus> im tryng to use the tv out on my VC
[12:18] <PriceChild> tim167, system > preferences > power management
[12:18] <amio> radams I will restart xserver then check or better to shutdown pc?
[12:18] <hilikus> i get image but its all garbled
[12:19] <PriceChild> tim167, choose the "General" tab
[12:19] <hilikus> any ideas what can i do
[12:19] <MasterShrek> RAdams, i cant either with my flac
[12:19] <PriceChild> tim167, and from there its obvious ;)
[12:19] <RAdams> amio: do you have fglrx installed? and yes it's better to restart pc, for a few reasons
[12:19] <hilikus> its through s-video
[12:19] <tim167> PriceChild perfect,my problem is solved :)
[12:19] <RAdams> mastershrek: isn't that weird?
[12:19] <MasterShrek> tim167, will your bios boot without a keyboard attached?
[12:19] <MasterShrek> mine never do...
[12:19] <mage__> hey is there a log for this room available?
[12:19] <amio> radams I have it installed thats why first I configured as fglrx then again as ati in case to replace correpted files is that ok?
[12:19] <PriceChild> !logs | mage__
[12:19] <ubotu> mage__: Channel logs can be found at http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs
[12:20] <mage__> thanks
[12:20] <Flare183> cool
[12:20] <tim167> MasterShrek, as i said there is  a keybd, but with only certain keys, its a dyi pedalboard
[12:20] <tim167> *diy
[12:20] <MasterShrek> ah sorry tim167 i missed that
[12:20] <RAdams> amio: you should probably search for your specific video card and see how other users have fixed the issue... you can play blindfold shotgun with xorg.conf all day
[12:20] <acidBURN> heard that ubuntu is going to have built-in 3d effects with 7.10
[12:20] <PriceChild> acidBURN, yes, #ubuntu+1 for further discussion.
[12:20] <Flare183> ok now if i am going to add another HD, and put windows on it will it affect the dual boot hard drive (master)?
[12:21] <MasterShrek> acidBURN, it does
[12:21] <amio> radams let me restart then I will back and will see
[12:21] <LjL> tim167, just one thing, i suggest that next time you *ask your real question*, not assume that your solution lies in something overkill (and, specifically, also very dangerous and totally useless and troublesome), such as logging in as root
[12:21] <mage__> damn, only done daily
[12:21] <soundray> Flare183: as long as it stays master, no. But Windows won't be happy on a slave drive.
[12:21] <acidBURN> tks
[12:21] <Flare183> ok
[12:21] <crisp1> Hello! Is there any way to change fan speed on my ATI x1950pro card under ubuntu?
[12:22] <tim167> LjL noted :)
[12:22] <RAdams> crisp1: If I were a betting man, I'd say probably not. ATI's, especially legacy cards, are not very well supported
[12:23] <soundray> crisp1: without claiming any expertise, I'd say no.
[12:23] <crisp1> Yeah thought so :>
[12:23] <Flare183> will kde4 be out by the time gusty comes out?
[12:23] <soundray> Flare183: no
[12:24] <Flare183> why not?
[12:24] <soundray> Flare183: gutsy questions on #ubuntu+1 please
[12:24] <crisp1> well ive been searching the webbernets a little, and there seems to be alot of idea, but none confirmed working solutions so far ;<
[12:24] <soundray> Flare183: you'd have to ask the KDE developers
[12:24] <Flare183> oh yeah found it never mind
[12:24] <pike_> crisp1: on a positive note this is possible with nvidia cards ;p
[12:24] <crisp1> i know ;/
[12:24] <crisp1> but im not changing just for that :)
[12:24] <crisp1> I at last got the ATI card working here :D
[12:25] <Ze_> The disable trackpad button works in windows on my laptop is there something similar for ubuntu so when I plug in a mouse I'm fine without it?
[12:25] <crisp1> Afaik ATI release alot of info very recently so people could make a new driver right?
[12:25] <soundray> Ze_: there are some packages for configuring trackpads, checkout gsynaptics and tpconfig
[12:26] <Jordan_U> crisp1, Yes, and Novel has created a very rough one already
[12:26] <RAdams> crisp1: what they released doesn't help owners of legacy cards very much; it mainly benefits their newest and upcoming hardware
[12:26] <Housito> Hey, nighty from spain
[12:26] <Housito> i was testing gutsy and i have a problem with the updates...
[12:26] <Jordan_U> crisp1, But unfortunately the information they have "realeased" still requires a non disclosure agreement, which limits its usefulness
[12:26] <PriceChild> !gutsy | Housito
[12:26] <ubotu> Housito: 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
[12:26] <RAdams> housito: #ubuntu+1
[12:26] <soundray> radams: do you think the way fans are addressed will have changed, though?
[12:27] <RAdams> pricechild: you're too fast ~_~
[12:27] <Housito> ubotu, thanks
[12:27] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[12:27] <RAdams> soundray: probably not that much, so that's a good point
[12:27] <hagna> wtf stdio.h no such file or directory?
[12:27] <slimjimflim> hi, i lost x windows.  i think it was the graphics. does anyone know how to find the package name for to the original driver?
[12:27] <RAdams> soundray: I don't see why they would
[12:27] <slimjimflim> *graphics card
[12:27] <Housito> i know is unstable, im trying help the community, take care and good night!
[12:27] <slimjimflim> *for the
[12:28] <Jordan_U> hagna, No header file for standard IO, what are you trying to compile?
[12:28] <soundray> radams: so crisp1 might hope that someone backports the feature
[12:28] <soundray> slimjimflim: sorry you lost me yesterday
[12:28] <RAdams> soundray: perhaps he might :D
[12:28] <hagna> Jordan_U: hello world
[12:28] <hagna> Jordan_U: where can I get the headers?
[12:28] <Ze_> soundray : thanks , I'll give that a go
[12:28] <slimjimflim> soundray: np
[12:28] <hagna> Jordan_U: I'm new to apt-get
[12:28] <Jordan_U> hagna, install build-essential :)
[12:29] <hagna> Jordan_U: thankyou
[12:29] <NEUR0M4NCER> Hi all - anyone fancy lending a hand to... another newb?
[12:29] <Jordan_U> hagna, It has the most used compilers and headers
[12:29] <soundray> slimjimflim: would it be terrible if you had to reinstall your system?
[12:29] <Jordan_U> hagna, np :)
[12:29] <RAdams> You know you've spent too much time in terminal when you go to close your Pidgin IRC window by typing "exit" X__X
[12:29] <Flare183> is there a way to create a keyboard shortcut to switch from beryl to kwin and back?
[12:29] <Jordan_U> Flare183, Yes
[12:29] <slimjimflim> soundray, i have it backed up, but i'm still going to keep messing with it until i get opengl up
[12:29] <Flare183> Jordon_U:> how?
[12:30] <amio> radams its still the same problem
[12:30] <amio> radams just I get brown screen
[12:30] <Jordan_U> Flare183, Just make a keyboard shortcut that runs "kwin --replace" or "compiz --replace"
[12:30] <Ze_> I'm using GAIM should i change over to pidgin? or wait for gutsygibbon?
[12:30] <soundray> slimjimflim: if you did go down the reinstall route, you might consider trying the beta (codename gutsy). It enables 3D acceleration by default on some cards.
[12:30] <Lunar_Lamp> I want to mount a usb hard drive as /var/lib automatically each time my machine boots.  What is the best way to do this? Do I need to use the UUID of the drive and an entry in fstab?
[12:31] <disinterested> i am having an issue with k3b, the video freezes after its been written to disc
[12:31] <Jordan_U> Ze_, Your choice, just know that there is a feisty .deb for Pidgin @ getdeb.org
[12:31] <ianm_> just saying, this is better than starting rhythmbox when you plug in your music player:  echo "oh boy, an mp3 player" | festival --tts
[12:31] <soundray> Lunar_Lamp: you want /var/lib on a USB drive?
[12:31] <robert_> is there any reason the heimdal package would remove dovecot-pop3d?
[12:31] <Lunar_Lamp> soundray: kinda yes
[12:32] <Ze_> Jordan_U:  is there much difference?
[12:32] <Jordan_U> lol @ ianm_
[12:32] <thesaint4444> soundray - same problem, tried to re partion and re format and got: ext2fs_mkdir: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while creating root dir error message... -any ideas?
[12:32] <bincitux> dalnet
[12:32] <amio> any one can help me please since I installed xgl companents on the pc to my fglrx ati card I get only brown screen and mouse nothing else
[12:32] <soundray> Lunar_Lamp: okay, your call. fstab is the way to go. You don't need the UUID, you can use /dev/sdXx in its place to address the partition.
[12:32] <Jordan_U> Ze_, I don't use it so I have no idea
[12:32] <ianm_> Jordan_U: I crack up every time.  can't wait to do it at a party haha
[12:32] <endz> how do you install the kernel sources?
[12:32] <Lunar_Lamp> soundray: yes, /dev/sdXx would work - but wouldn't that be affected by me sometimes having other drives plugged in etc?
[12:32] <soundray> thesaint4444: did you make the new one smaller?
[12:33] <endz> whats the apt-get command
[12:33] <LjL> !kernel > enz    (enz, see the private message from Ubotu)
[12:33] <ianm_> Jordan_U:  freakin' HAL 9000 the music junkie
[12:33] <thesaint4444> soundray - yes set to 100g when its actually 120 ...
[12:33] <soundray> Lunar_Lamp: you mean you would sometimes boot with /var/lib/ on the external drive and other times without?
[12:33] <Lunar_Lamp> endz: erm, the apt-get command is "apt-get". I think you meant to ask something slightly different -like "how I install/update/upgrade/uninstall with apt-get"
[12:34] <amio> any one can help me please since I installed xgl companents on the pc to my fglrx ati card I get only brown screen and mouse nothing else
[12:34] <thesaint4444> soundray - i try to mount it with mount /dev/sdb1 and it cant find it...
[12:34] <endz> how do i install kernel sources through apt-get
[12:34] <juan_ac> Hello!!! i'm having some trouble configuring one ethernet card! Can somebody help me???
[12:34] <endz> :)
[12:34] <soundray> thesaint4444: if we assume it's a surface problem, it would make sense to make a few smaller partitions and try formatting them in turn.
[12:34] <Jordan_U> juan_ac, What problem are you having?
[12:34] <thesaint4444> soundray.. - i will give it  a go...
[12:35] <Poul|Raider> anyone got a moment to guide me to enable syntax highlighting in vim?
[12:35] <Ze_> soundray:  reckon there would be a way to get the external buttons working?
[12:35] <amio> any one can help me please since I installed xgl companents on the pc to my fglrx ati card I get only brown screen and mouse nothing else
[12:35] <Ze_> with asus laptop
[12:35] <bobbywan> ello tlm
[12:35] <soundray> thesaint4444: or perhaps save the trouble and get a new drive...
[12:35] <bobbywan> kkq peut m aider svp
[12:35] <LjL> !fr | bobbywan
[12:35] <ubotu> bobbywan: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[12:35] <regeya> Poul|Raider: could you be more specific?  please?  anything in particular you're trying to do?  (I'm a novice with vim, btw, so be gentle :-)
[12:36] <juan_ac> Jordan_U: Well i have one ethernet card installed and running the one i usea for connecting to the internet via an DSL modem i just want to configure another ethernet card wich i bought a couple weeks ago in order to connect my macboook to this desktop
[12:36] <soundray> Ze_: no idea, but my first stop would be the installation reports for laptops linked at tuxmobil.org
[12:36] <bobbywan> oui fr ljl
[12:36] <Jordan_U> juan_ac, Just use System -> Administration -> Networking
[12:36] <LjL> bobbywan, et je te voudrais dire aussi que la "ecriture SMS" non est pas appreci.
[12:36] <MU9214> hi everyone. question. I have ubuntu server installed, on an old hp netserver LC3. It has 3 hard drives, and i installed the OS on the main hard drive. How do i make it recignize the other drives and use them?
[12:36] <MU9214> for backup and stuff
[12:37] <juan_ac> Jordan_U:  I see Network or Network Tools
[12:37] <regeya> Poul|Raider: a lot of syntax highlighting packages you'll find on vim.org just need to either be loaded and sourced in vim (if it's a vimball) or need to be untarred into ~/.vim
[12:37] <endz> how do i install kernel sources through apt-get
[12:37] <bruenig> Poul|Raider, ubuntu's vim packages are notably awful
[12:37] <soundray> LjL: you've started it ;)
[12:37] <LjL> endz, i think Ubotu sent you a link
[12:37] <amio> any one can help me please since I installed xgl companents on the pc to my fglrx ati card I get only brown screen and mouse nothing else
[12:37] <LjL> !kernel > endz    (endz, see the private message from Ubotu) if you didn't get it
[12:37] <regeya> Poul|Raider: if you're writing highlighting code...I hope to be that helpful to others someday :->
[12:37] <Jordan_U> juan_ac, And I would suggest installing a DHCP server also and configuring it with Firestarter, it is really easy and will make it so all you have to do is plug another computer in and it will connect to you automagically, no matter what OS
[12:38] <Jordan_U> juan_ac, Network
[12:38] <LjL> soundray, que? :P
[12:38] <VWJ1bnR1> What kind of distros have been tested for the Gateway ML3109?
[12:38] <soundray> [23:37]  <LjL> !fr | bobbywan
[12:39] <Jordan_U> VWJ1bnR1, If you are wondering about compatability I suggest just trying some LiveCDs
[12:39] <speps> ragazzi ... ma che fine hanno fatto i repositoty di janvitus????
[12:39] <juan_ac> Jordan_U: In the network it only appears my already working wired connection (dsl) and a modem
[12:39] <Poul|Raider> bruenig, regeya, it dint answere my question about how i enable it

[12:40] <bruenig> Poul|Raider, google vim and go from there is the answer basically, don't look for an ubuntu way per se
[12:40] <LjL> soundray, i just added that writing like in an SMS is not appreciated in there :) (he wrote something like "hi ne1 hlp me plz", could barely spot it was french)
[12:40] <rastor> i'm installing ubuntu 7.04 and i'm in trouble
[12:40] <speps> sorry
[12:40] <leizar999> what's your problem?
[12:40] <soundray> LjL: please don't take me too seriously. I need sleep now...
[12:40] <soundray> bye
[12:40] <Jordan_U> Poul|Raider, Sorry if this is not helpful ( only saw last comment ) but the best way to learn vim is by running "vimtutor"
[12:40] <scguy318> rastor: the trouble is?
[12:40] <rastor> i cannot install it because there are problems with my hd recognisement
[12:41] <Jordan_U> rastor, RAID?
[12:41] <sandos> argh. My dist-upgrade from fesity to gutsy did not work out at all
[12:41] <rastor> my hd is IDE and ubuntu detects that it's SATA
[12:41] <Poul|Raider> Jordan_U, i know how to use vim, just need to enable the highlighning
[12:41] <Jordan_U> sandos, Were you expecting it to? :)
[12:41] <rastor> so, when installing the device cannot be mounted and there are problems
[12:41] <kitche> Poul|Raider: install vim-full and you should have highlighting
[12:42] <rastor> i can format my partitions and partitionate then!
[12:42] <Poul|Raider> kitche, :syntax enable dont i still need to do that all the time
[12:42] <sandos> Jordan_U: yes. Ive done numerous dist-upgrades with Debian, and Ive seen forumposts saying it went mostly fine in Ubuntu too...
[12:42] <Juhaz> Poul|Raider, just put it in .vimrc
[12:42] <kitche> Poul|Raider: well in vim-tiny you might have to or add it in .vimrc
[12:42] <rastor> but it's impossble to mount them when installing!
[12:42] <Jordan_U> sandos, Gutsy is not finished yet, why would you expect it to work?
[12:42] <rastor> somebody has this problem?
[12:43] <Poul|Raider> kitche, i just creat a file .vimrc and its loaded each time?
[12:43] <Jordan_U> sandos, And BTW with Ubuntu it is best to use update manager over a dist-upgrade since it does extra sanity checking
[12:43] <sandos> I read that yeah, but I assume thats only an option once the release is.. released?
[12:43] <radioaktivstorm> hello, i've found that most of the time i can only connect to the internet using ifdown ifup  on my wireless card; nm-applet doesn't do its job....usually.....does anyone know what is the cause of this?
[12:43] <sandos> because my update manager seems to have no options to do anything atm
[12:44] <defcon> how do I get suspend to come alive with a keypress like wind0ze
[12:44] <Jordan_U> sandos, Please read the release notes on how to upgrade, and all the warnings not to do it on machines you care about :)
[12:44] <g[r] eek> Hi - instead of setting up mod_proxy to forward port 80 to port 8080, is it not possible to configure my domain so that http://jboss.example.com/ points to http://example.com:8080/ ?
[12:44] <defcon> my suspend doesnt work with a keypress
[12:44] <defcon> well restore
[12:45] <renpytom> Is there a consistent archive with the gutsy beta around?
[12:45] <kitche> Poul|Raider: if you add http://nion.modprobe.de/setup/vimrc has what you want just the syntax highlighting part you want or just grab the whole thing and edit it to your liking :)
[12:45] <g[r] eek> Ideally I'd like to forward all requests for www.example.com/ to www.example.com:8080
[12:45] <MU9214> how do i mount multiple hard drives in ubuntu server (sorry, still kinda sorta new)
[12:45] <g[r] eek> seems to be no simple way
[12:45] <defcon> renpytom, http://ubuntu-unleashed.blogspot.com/2007/09/ubuntu-gutsy-beta-release-download-site.html
[12:45] <kbrooks> MU9214, not a stupid question
[12:45] <Jordan_U> MU9214, Set them up in your /etc/fstab or use the mount command
[12:46] <Poul|Raider> thx kitche
[12:46] <MU9214> kbrooks: how do i use the mount command?
[12:46] <MU9214> kbrooks: works i linux too? Thought it would only work on my girlfriend
[12:46] <MU9214> kbrooks: that was a joke. i dont have a girlfriend
[12:46] <kitche> Poul|Raider: I borrowed at lot of the guys configs for stuff and edit it to my liking
[12:46] <kbrooks> MU9214, have you partitioned your 2nd hard drive?
[12:46] <Poul|Raider> i will just try the same
[12:47] <MU9214> kbrooks: theres 3, and no..
[12:47] <Jordan_U> MU9214, Yes, as well as touch fsck and yes
[12:47] <kbrooks> MU9214, how about your 3rd?
[12:47] <MU9214> kbrooks: no.  lemmie pastebin fdisk -l
[12:48] <Mahdy> i try a lot of tools but i still cant play a video file with a Unicode subtitle . is anybody do that?
[12:48] <MrKeuner> hi, When I try to connect any encrypted wireless network, the options that I get is WEP, WEP64 and WEP128 however many the times the netwrok is not using that encryption. Which packages may I be alcking?
[12:48] <MU9214> kbrooks: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38972/
[12:48] <renpytom> defcon: Thanks, but those seem to all be CDs, not apt sources.
[12:48] <pike_> MrKeuner: !wpa | MrKeuner
[12:48] <kondor101> Mandy, just guessing vlc ?
[12:48] <kbrooks> MU9214, minute.
[12:48] <Jordan_U> renpytom, What do you need?
[12:48] <Sushubh1> i needed help with grub...

[12:49] <pike_> MrKeuner: im assuming you mean wpa is that correct?
[12:49] <Touns> hi
[12:49] <renpytom> I'd like to apt-upgrade to gutsy.
[12:49] <scguy318> !it | phato80
[12:49] <ubotu> phato80: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[12:49] <renpytom> But the archive seems to have a lot of broken dependencies.
[12:49] <MrKeuner> pike_: wpa2 to be specific
[12:49] <Jordan_U> renpytom, That is not the way to upgrade
[12:49] <MrKeuner> pike_: I mean the network is encrypted with wpa2 but all i get is wep as options
[12:49] <Sushubh1> grub wont display my windows partition. what to do?
[12:49] <Jordan_U> renpytom, Please read the release notes, and do not dist-upgrade to gutsy
[12:50] <kbrooks> MU9214, did you partition /dev/sda before? (we will partition it again, but i am just checking)
[12:50] <pike_> MrKeuner: i think its just a matter of installing wpasupplicant but see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=318539
[12:50] <MrKeuner> pike_: I have wpasupplicant, do you think I should reinstall?
[12:50] <shiznit> hello
[12:50] <Jordan_U> MrKeuner, The drivers for your card may not support WPA without some work
[12:50] <MU9214> kbrooks: i only partitioned the one that the OS is on (to install the os) i think.....    i dont know. too new to linux/unix. lol...  but ubuntu should  be installed on the biggest HD.
[12:51] <MrKeuner> Jordan_U: what kind of work?
[12:51] <LordMat> eu.undernet.org
[12:51] <raymondjtoth> what the beta room
[12:51] <Jordan_U> MrKeuner, No idea
[12:51] <raymondjtoth> to 7.10
[12:51] <Jordan_U> raymondjtoth, #ubuntu+1
[12:51] <kbrooks> MU9214, ok, ill explain
[12:51] <MU9214> kbrooks: i know what partitioning is, just dont know if i partitioned them
[12:52] <MU9214> kbrooks: i did the default install to the biggest hard drive
[12:52] <kbrooks> MU9214, ok, lets get to the chase.
[12:52] <kbrooks> MU9214, do you have a GUI on the server?
[12:52] <Poul|Raider> kitche, what color settings is that config file good for ? looks horible in the default white
[12:53] <thesaint4444> soundray - no go, still doesnt work.. any final suggestions?
[12:53] <MU9214> kbrooks: no.. wanted the challenge of just the terminal...
[12:53] <shiznit> lol
[12:53] <kbrooks> MU9214, all right. type fdisk /dev/sda (i'm getting the commands to type in fdisk, h/o)
[12:53] <Beemo125> what.
[12:53] <MU9214> kbrooks: i was thinking about install xcfe or whatever it is (because the server is too old for gnome) but i was advised againt it)
[12:54] <kitche> Poul|Raider: umm default terminal if your using xterm it probably should be black background for it
[12:54] <MU9214> kbrooks: what do you mean?
[12:54] <Poul|Raider> kitche, ahh ye totaly forgot that
[12:54] <maestrojed> I am having problems with my MySQL server.  No one in ubuntu-server is helping.  I hope you don't mind if I ask here.  MySQL use to work but now was not running.  When I tried to load it by "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start" it fails.  If I do "sudo mysqld &" it will load.  I am not sure what is wrong.  Can anyone help?
[12:54] <pike_> MU9214: on servers i normally install xfonts-base xserver-xorg and fluxbox or whatever window manager. might be a good solution if you are running on older specs
[12:54] <kbrooks> MU9214, when you type fdisk /dev/sda, you get a prompt.
[12:55] <MU9214> kbrooks: ok

[12:56] <MINIMEY_And_DJ_V> we from Russia
[12:56] <kbrooks> MU9214, no - just look at it

[12:57] <MINIMEY_And_DJ_V>   
[12:57] <MINIMEY_And_DJ_V> =)
[12:57] <Jordan_U> maestrojed, Pastebin the contents and try to see where it is failing, also pastebin any output from running the script

[12:58] <MINIMEY_And_DJ_V>          )
[12:58] <sandos> 25 days? pff
[12:58] <sandos> ;)

If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[01:17] <NEUR0M4NCER> Sorry, have to keep re-logging in, any ideas (to the guy who asked for pastebin)?
[01:18] <NEUR0M4NCER> Can anyone help with my apt-get problem?
[01:18] <scguy318> paste the link to your pastebin?
[01:18] <kahrytan> NEUR0M4NCER, what problem
[01:19] <NEUR0M4NCER> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38974/
[01:19] <robert_> is there any reason the heimdal package in feisty would remove dovecot-pop3d?
[01:19] <scguy318> NEUR0M4NCER: very weird, you do anything filesystem wise recently?
[01:20] <NEUR0M4NCER> ... if I reveal exactly how stupid i've been, will you still help? :(
[01:20] <kahrytan> NEUR0M4NCER, reinstall libaries?

[01:20] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:20] <NEUR0M4NCER> Basically, i'm missing something in /usr/lib
[01:21] <NEUR0M4NCER> ... as in "I deleted it by accident"
[01:21] <kahrytan> lol
[01:21] <kahrytan> so what you need is the file back?
[01:22] <NEUR0M4NCER> Exactly. I can't find it on the LiveCD, and the forums are helping, but I thought this might be a bit quicker...
[01:22] <tim> How do i force the game to RUn in OPENgl in wine?
[01:22] <scguy318> NEUR0M4NCER: Does Synaptic work?
[01:22] <kahrytan> scguy318, snaptic uses apt-get
[01:22] <scguy318> tim: all games eventually run on OpenGL...?
[01:22] <scguy318> kahrytan: true
[01:23] <NEUR0M4NCER> That's right. No Synaptic, no apt-get. The file I need is libapt-pkg-libc6.4-6.so.3.53.0
[01:23] <kahrytan> who wants to send it?
[01:23] <tim> NO that game runs in Direct X!!
[01:23] <scguy318> lemme look for that file
[01:23] <kahrytan> i got it
[01:23] <hilikus> hey guys, can someone help me? the tv-out on my ati radeon 9200 is al garbled
[01:23] <Ze_> gsynaptics did the job :) for disabling trackpad :)
[01:23] <wabiD> can i tell my window list to sort programs
[01:23] <NEUR0M4NCER> Y'think it's a simple case of replacing the file in usr/lib?
[01:23] <Ze_> thanks who helped me :)
[01:23] <hilikus> the pc monitor looks fine, but not the tv-out
[01:23] <wabiD> so that if i have 2 firefox windows open they are next to each other
[01:24] <tim> How do i force the game to RUn in OPENgl in wine?

[01:26] <thesaint4444> soundray - many thanks if you are still there!
[01:26] <Nyle> silly me, thanks for correction
[01:26] <NEUR0M4NCER> File transfer doesn't appear to be working.
[01:27] <Nyle> I am not satisfied with ubuntu
[01:27] <Nyle> for some reason
[01:27] <kahrytan> NEUR0M4NCER, email
[01:27] <Nyle> something seems to be missing
[01:28] <Nyle> oh yeah, its missing gutsy ! :D
[01:28] <boghog> hi. is it possible to stop ubuntu from automatically changing my xorg.conf when it is started with a bad configuration?
[01:28] <scguy318> kahrytan: NEUR0M4NCER@gmail.com is what he said
[01:28] <Pici> !gutsy | Nyle
[01:28] <ubotu> Nyle: 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
[01:28] <kahrytan> scguy318, I know. told him to check it
[01:29] <kahrytan> I cant wait for 4 weeks to go by
[01:29] <smacfarl> Hey gang
[01:29] <kahrytan> I pray there isnt a major kernel update around gutsy release
[01:29] <smacfarl> So while ubuntu has correctly identified my graphics card id does not give me the option of changing my monitor refresh rate
[01:29] <opteek> can someone please tell me what is that 3d docking app called with the bouncing icons?
[01:29] <smacfarl> Currently this is at 60hrtz which is giving me a head ache
[01:29] <scguy318> kahrytan: oh but there is, I think Gutsy is 2.6.22?
[01:30] <NEUR0M4NCER> I got the file, thanks kahrytan... should I just go ahead and un-compress it in the correct folder?
[01:30] <scguy318> kahrytan: could be dead wrong tho
[01:30] <smacfarl> normaly I run at 72+hrz how can I fix this?
[01:30] <scguy318> smacfarl: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[01:30] <fsckr> opteek kibadock
[01:30] <opteek> fsckr: tx
[01:30] <scguy318> smacfarl: what video card do you have? if its liek Nvidia/ATI u could run their cute graphic config utilities
[01:30] <fen1x> I need someone here that works for walmart, plz tell me someone does
[01:30] <fsckr> np
[01:30] <smacfarl> should i use pksudo
[01:30] <kahrytan> NEUR0M4NCER,  or copy them
[01:30] <smacfarl> gksudo rather
[01:30] <scguy318> fen1x: i dont, but the question is?
[01:30] <scguy318> fen1x: well, i guess that is your question :P
[01:30] <smacfarl> I have an ati radeon 7000 actually
[01:30] <kahrytan> scguy318, I meant for feisty
[01:31] <scguy318> kahrytan: ah
[01:31] <fen1x> scguy318 they have a 1800 number to call in, and I don't have it xD
[01:31] <kahrytan> scguy318, Upgrades slow down repos
[01:31] <opteek> fsckr: actually, im thinking about the one that has the icons with the realistic physics engine, and they bounce realistically.. i think it was gksomething
[01:31] <element3> i use ubuntu 7.04 server edition without ubuntu-desktop. how can i disable screensaver on my text based command line environment?
[01:31] <smacfarl> I was just on last night to try to get OPengl support working, and for some reason even after changing my x11/xconfog to radeon I still don
[01:31] <mEck0> I've just installed phpmyadmin (running ubuntu 7.10) but how do I start it? when i ran Feisty, I could easily start phpmyadmin through http://localhost, but the app isn't in /var/www/apache2 now :S
[01:31] <kahrytan> scguy318, Canonical forgets to realize that at releases, repos slow down
[01:31] <smacfarl> t have access
[01:31] <NEUR0M4NCER> Kk. I'll give it a whirl. Thanks for all your help, chances are i'll be back in a sec... ;)
[01:31] <opteek> fsckr: nm, its kibadock
[01:31] <fsckr> never heard of that one opteek kiba dock only one I heard of when the crazy bouncing
[01:32] <Jordan_U> opteek, kiba dock
[01:32] <kahrytan> scguy318, They should put Upgrades on different repo
[01:32] <kahrytan> err .. server
[01:32] <gospodinjuha> my ubuntu won't even install.  it gives me some crazy error message about graphical interface or something.  sound familiar to anybody that can help??  PM me if you can.  Thanks
[01:32] <scguy318> kahrytan: they should :P
[01:32] <scguy318> gospodinjuha: X server feil?
[01:32] <wabiD> is there a show desktop command from terminal?
[01:32] <fsckr> Curs0r did you ever get your problem fixed? I had to jet to take care of my kids
[01:33] <smacfarl> scguy318: what's this tool? and can I use it with my radeon 7000?
[01:33] <kahrytan> scguy318, I never upgrade. to many bad stories
[01:33] <scguy318> smacfarl: well, with restricted drivers, you can run nvidia-settings for Nvidia, and fglrx-control or w/e its called
[01:33] <scguy318> smacfarl: if you've got restricted drivers
[01:33] <shiznit> lucky
[01:33] <element3> i use ubuntu 7.04 server edition without ubuntu-desktop. how can i disable screensaver on my text based command line environment? anyone can help me?
[01:33] <scguy318> smacfarl: else, a simple sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:33] <shiznit> my nvidial boots to black screen
[01:33] <shiznit> i tried that
[01:34] <shiznit> no dice
[01:34] <NEUR0M4NCER> ... how would I go about extracting into /usr/lib through the terminal?
[01:34] <smacfarl> scguy318: But are there restricted drivers for my card? Looking on wikipedia it seems that the R100 cards pre-8500 don't have proper drivers
[01:35] <scguy318> smacfarl: mm, guess not, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg is best
[01:35] <kahrytan> NEUR0M4NCER,  cant on the desktop?
[01:35] <amio> please I need help I am in emeregency, I have problem with another computer, something with the grapgics can any one who knows good in xgl and fglrx for ati help me please?
[01:35] <NEUR0M4NCER> It gives me a permission error (guessing I need sudo in terminal?)
[01:35] <Jordan_U> amio, What is the exact problem
[01:35] <Jordan_U> ?
[01:35] <kahrytan> NEUR0M4NCER,  but the app for it is gunzip
[01:36] <smacfarl> ok so xseserver is asking which driver
[01:36] <scguy318> smacfarl: vesa is safe bet
[01:36] <smacfarl> so when I change xconfig org i changed "ati" to "radeon" last night but I don't see radeon on the list
[01:36] <scguy318> smacfarl: actually, you could directly edit xorg.conf
[01:37] <kahrytan> NEUR0M4NCER, what's the permissions on the file?
[01:37] <scguy318> smacfarl: if you knew how to do that :)
[01:37] <scguy318> smacfarl: you would just tweak the horiz/vertres values
[01:37] <scguy318> smacfarl: in the screen section I believe
[01:37] <nonewmsgs> ok i learned my lesson about betas, but now how do i downgrade back to feisty
[01:37] <NEUR0M4NCER> read + write permission...
[01:38] <amio> jorand_U the problem is pc was working slowly so I wanted to make it better, I installed the restircted fglrx drive for my ATI rv350 radeon then it was still, so I typed apt-get install xgl-* then now pc doesnt load it opens a brown screen , then I played by xorg.conf and xorg.conf.fglrx-0 and now I see it with lines on screen with many colors
[01:38] <kahrytan> gunzip --help in terminal
[01:38] <scguy318> amio: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:38] <kahrytan> nonewmsgs,  perhaps if you want be cutting edge. wait for RC instead
[01:38] <scguy318> amio: select vesa for your driver, stick with defaults until you get to resolution, then just pick w/e reses u want, then start the X server
[01:38] <filegetta> how can i restore windows using ubuntu
[01:38] <kahrytan> filegetta, ##windows
[01:39] <filegetta> do i join that channel kahrytan
[01:39] <amio> scguy318 I did and restarted then x and again shutdown and started pc same. even before I could sign in kde then when I changed uninstalled fglrx companents I cannot sign to anything
[01:39] <kahrytan> filegetta,  we dont do windows.
[01:39] <filegetta> i'm going to install ubuntu and i need to recover files
[01:40] <scguy318> filegetta: you can access your Windows filesystem from the LiveCD I believe
[01:40] <kahrytan> filegetta, what files
[01:40] <nonewmsgs> what is rc and how do i downgrade back to feisty
[01:40] <filegetta> .doc files
[01:40] <scguy318> filegetta: are you able to access your Windows part from the LiveCD?
[01:41] <astro76> nonewmsgs, you can't downgrade
[01:41] <amio> Jordan_U I think I by mistake uninstalled xserver-xorg when I typed apt-get autoremove xorg-*
[01:41] <kbrooks> nonewmsgs, you cannot downgrade, reinstall
[01:41] <scguy318> Jordan_U: i think...you did
[01:41] <amio> scguy318 where vesa located in?
[01:41] <scguy318> amio: I think...you did
[01:41] <kahrytan> nonewmsgs, but you can backup ~/home and reinstall
[01:41] <scguy318> amio: its when you're doing the driver selection in sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[01:41] <amio> scguy318 so what is going to happen now?
[01:41] <Jordan_U> scguy318, ?
[01:41] <smacfarl> scguy318 so in xorg.conf it says generic monitor. I actually have a Viewsonic A70 is there somewhere I could find a well written version of this section for my  monitor?
[01:41] <scguy318> Jordan_U: sorry addressed to wrong person
[01:42] <Jordan_U> amio, Run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and you should get back all of the default applications
[01:42] <shiznit> is there a global spell check in ubuntu?
[01:42] <scguy318> smacfarl: http://www.viewsonic.com/support/desktopdisplays/crtmonitors/aseries/a70/, fill in the Horiz/Vert info with the ranges in specs sectgion
[01:42] <amio> scguy318 I dont understand your question? I made the reconfiguration but did not help even when I had xserver installed
[01:42] <NEUR0M4NCER> Sorry kahrytan - could you tell me how to use gunzip to extract the file into /usr/lib ?
[01:43] <scguy318> amio: n/m it
[01:43] <kahrytan> NEUR0M4NCER, gunzip --help. read it.
[01:43] <scguy318> NEUR0M4NCER: you doing it as root:?
[01:44] <Curs0r> fsckr, I did actually
[01:44] <amio> Jordan_U will it back up the xserver-xorg and the xorg.conf and xorg.conf.fglrx-0?
[01:44] <Curs0r> fsckr, thank you for asking
[01:44] <scguy318> smacfarl are you identified with NickServ?
[01:45] <darlok> ...is it possible to split at tar.gz file?  I can't fit the whole thing on one Double-Layer DVD lol
[01:45] <persen_> Hi all, just installed new mobo, gfx and cpu and want to use my install of kubuntu feisty.. Is it an easy way to "detect and setup" my new hardware?
[01:45] <scguy318> darlok: i believe it is, the split command
[01:45] <NEUR0M4NCER> i'm using the sudo command before gunzip /home/sam/Desktop/libapt-pkg-libc6.4-6.so.3.53.0.tar.gz
[01:45] <Shadow_X> what is the fastest filesystem for linux?
[01:45] <smacfarl> scguy419 no
[01:45] <smacfarl> scguy318 no
[01:45] <scguy318> smacfarl: mm ok
[01:46] <amio> Jordan_U something I want to ask in case I installed the restircted driver of fglrx. so which .conf will work for the pc? is it xorg.conf? or xorg.conf.fglrx? and if the second then I have two one is xorg.conf.fglrx-0 and xorg.conf.fglrx.original so which one runs?
[01:46] <smacfarl> who's nickserv?
[01:46] <Sam__> hey guys I removed my recycle bin from my bottom panel how do i get it back?
[01:46] <scguy318> smacfarl: NickServ is a service that lets you ensure that a nickname belongs to you
[01:46] <scguy318> smacfarl: you have to ID with NS I believe to send/receive PMs
[01:46] <smacfarl> on irc or everywhere?
[01:46] <scguy318> Sam___ right click, Add to Panel, Trash applet I think
[01:46] <Shadow_X> irc
[01:46] <kahrytan> smacfarl,  on irc
[01:46] <smacfarl> oh
[01:46] <amio> scguy318 I dont understand why kde stopped runing? is it because I messed with fglrx and xgl are the important for kde runing too?
[01:47] <Jordan_U> amio, xorg.conf is the one that is currently being used, if you want to back it up before changing it you can just give it any name you want then if you need to revert to it change the name back to xorg.conf
[01:47] <Sam__> thank you scguy318
[01:47] <smacfarl> I am running  xchat irc gnome client and if it registered me some how during set up then maybe I am
[01:47] <Fastly> i'm testng out gutsy beta - would it be recommended to now do a "partial upgrade" through the update manager?
[01:47] <scguy318> smacfarl: you're probably not
[01:47] <smacfarl> but I am not really very versed in irx
[01:47] <smacfarl> irc
[01:47] <Fastly> there seems to be a lot of packages to upgrade already
[01:47] <smacfarl> should I do this nickserv thing and why did you ask?
[01:47] <Fastly> it's only been released a day :-)
[01:47] <Jordan_U> Fastly, #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy
[01:48] <amio> Jordan_U then why when I installed the fglrx drivers I saw that xorg.conf was deleted some how and pc still runing and I can even start and restart pc?
[01:48] <scguy318> smacfarl: in case you wished to take this to PM
[01:48] <scguy318> smacfarl: no u dont have to
[01:48] <riotkittie> Fastly > #ubuntu+1  for 7.10 talk

[01:48] <Jordan_U> amio, An xorg.conf is not required, if it does not exist X will try its hardest to configure itself automatically
[01:48] <Shadow_X> what is the fastest filesystem for linux?
[01:49] <smacfarl> I think I like the ubtou he's cool! lol.
[01:49] <scguy318> Shadow_X: it depends on what you want to do with it I think
[01:49] <scguy318> Shadow_X: usually ext3 is fine for most
[01:49] <Shadow_X> I want to set up my external hard drive for network access
[01:49] <scguy318> Shadow_X: ext3 will do probably, though I'm no fs expert
[01:49] <Shadow_X> its currently fat32
[01:49] <Shadow_X> but im cleaning it and reformatting
[01:49] <Shadow_X> k
[01:49] <amio> Jordan_U how many ubuntu_desktop will take time to downloads is it many mb's? and will really it backs all things like fglrx and xserver and xorg.conf files?
[01:50] <scguy318> smacfarl: success?
[01:50] <hamit> pardus kanalna bakan yok muu

[01:50] <smacfarl> scguy318 so my monitor is older than the one posted but I googled for a copy of spec sheet
[01:50] <scguy318> smacfarl: kk
[01:51] <hamit> is there anyone who knows turkish
[01:51] <AutoMatriX> High folks
[01:51] <smacfarl> the sheet I found says Fh30-70khz and fv30-180khz 180 seems kinda high

[01:51] <ubotu> hamit: Turk ubuntu kullanicilari, turkce yardim yada geyik icin #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde.
[01:51] <Jordan_U> amio, Ubuntu desktop is just a meta package, which means that it doesn't contain anything it just installs other packages. So how much is installed by installing ubuntu-desktop depends on how much of the things that ubuntu-desktop depends on you already have
[01:51] <hamit> thanks
[01:51] <smacfarl> when i change xorg.cong with this range will I literally be able to go to 180?
[01:51] <scguy318> !tr | hamit
[01:51] <scguy318> beat me :P
[01:51] <persen_> Should i take "nv" or "nvidia" as the X driver? I think "nv" is the proprietary nvidia driver (best) or am i wrong?
[01:51] <smacfarl> I feel like a spinaltap member with that question.
[01:51] <nikolam> Something interesting: i formated DVD-RAm as ext3 but only root can write to it. How to make it available to users to read-write? :)  in etc/fstab stays: /dev/hda /media/cdrom1 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
[01:51] <scguy318> smacfarl: perhaps, probably not in actuality tho
[01:51] <Shadow_X> nv is generic
[01:51] <amio> Jordan_U will I loose any of my documents which are on pc and on the desktop?
[01:51] <Jordan_U> persen_, nvidia is the proprietary driver
[01:51] <Shadow_X> nvidia is the official
[01:52] <Jordan_U> amio, No
[01:52] <Shadow_X> er, proprietary, yea lol
[01:52] <persen_> ok, tnx
[01:52] <Shadow_X> np
[01:52] <amio> Jordan_U but one thing the pc is not near me its in another place so if I run there I will not be able to talk here so I want to get all the posibilities please
[01:53] <amio> Jordan_U then other way to restore the things? xgl and conf files and fglrx?
[01:53] <mike> hello everybody
[01:53] <mike> USB ports don't work, and no wireless, suggestions?
[01:53] <Shadow_X> wireless is a pain
[01:53] <Shadow_X> or at least, it was for me on my friends laptop
[01:53] <scguy318> mike: wuts your wireless chipset?
[01:54] <mike> ummm I'm using a compaq presario f500 with a broadcom wireless card
[01:54] <amio> Jordan_U I have these info about the drive they might help
[01:54] <Jordan_U> amio, sudo apt-get install xgl should get XGL back and restricted manager should get fglrx back
[01:54] <scguy318> mike: you have your Windows drivers? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[01:55] <smacfarl> scguy318: so I changed generic monitor to viewsonic a70 and then I change hor and vert should I change option "dpms" to something else?
[01:55] <Jordan_U> mike, Do you know the exact chipset? ( bcm43xx, what is the "xx" ? )
[01:55] <amio> Jordan_U display: :0.0  screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: DRI R300 Project OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R300 20060815 AGP 8x x86/MMX/SSE2 TCL OpenGL version string: 1.3 Mesa 7.0.1

[01:57] <gnomefreak> LjL: sorry was working on it
[01:57] <scguy318> smacfarl: DPMS is how your monitor does power saving, just leave it alone

[01:57] <scguy318> smacfarl: the only things you need to change are horiz/vert res
[01:57] <Rei-chan> Oh, just someone spamming the channel with messages.
[01:57] <fen1x> Ok guys, stupid question, How do I do the whole C++ Compiler thing, I know ubuntu comes with one but where do I access it?
[01:57] <mike> it says dell wireless 1390 WLAN mini-PCI Card
[01:58] <scguy318> fen1x: g++? thats the cmd-line compiler
[01:58] <smacfarl> restarting gpm
[01:58] <scguy318> fen1x: if you want a GUI IDE, theres KDevelop, Eclipse, and the fine gedit :P
[01:58] <LjL> gnomefreak: eh i was laughing at  http://xkcd.com/303/ anyway, would have taken some time to realize what was going on :P
[01:58] <fen1x> scguy318 Those I'd have to Synaptic correct?
[01:58] <DFlame> hail gedit :)
[01:58] <scguy318> fen1x: just build-essential for the compilers
[01:58] <scguy318> fen1x: and for the rest yeah
[01:58] <h_howee> can any1 tell me y i can't boot my comp from an xp cd?
[01:58] <riotkittie> gedit schmedit
[01:59] <gnomefreak> i had just sat down my screen saver wasnt fully off screen
[01:59] <Jordan_U> !compile | fen1x
[01:59] <ubotu> fen1x: 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!)
[01:59] <DFlame> h_howee: set BIOS to boot from CD?
[01:59] <riotkittie> h_howee : did you set CD as the boot option in bios?
[01:59] <gnomefreak> lol
[01:59] <fen1x> Thanks guys ^0^
[01:59] <h_howee> i did
[01:59] <h_howee> it still goes directly to grub
[01:59] <scguy318> h_howee: check your boot order?
[01:59] <Shadow_X> wow my backup is going well
[01:59] <Jordan_U> h_howee, Do any other boot CDs work?
[01:59] <h_howee> floppy first
[01:59] <Shadow_X> I thought id lose lots of cds
[01:59] <h_howee> cd 2nd
[01:59] <h_howee> hdd 3rd
[01:59] <amio> Jordan_U I dont understand why its effecting KDE what is the relationship between this gnome problem and KDE?
[02:00] <DFlame> h_howee: does it appear to read from the disk before going to grub, and the above too :P
[02:00] <Shadow_X> so far, only 1 CD and 2 DVDs
[02:00] <mike> Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card
[02:00] <mike> no wireless
[02:00] <h_howee> i see the cd drive's light flashing so i suppose it is
[02:00] <DFlame> try another boot disk
[02:00] <Jordan_U> amio, Oh sorry, are you using kubuntu? If so then you should have installed kubuntu-desktop to get all of the packages that KDE needs
[02:00] <scguy318> mike: you have your Windows wireless drivers? have you tried following the guide I linked you to?
[02:00] <riotkittie> maybe your cd's just toast
[02:00] <h_howee> i don't have any others
[02:01] <runemaste644> i found a magic bcm43xx script
[02:01] <shiznit> when i come back from hibernate my wireless is not working? the network devices list doesnt show the wireless adapter, and ideas?
[02:01] <scguy318> h_howee: maybe its not bootable, god forbid :P
[02:01] <mike> no, just ubuntu
[02:01] <runemaste644> oops
[02:01] <Pici> !bcm43xx
[02:01] <ubotu> Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx
[02:01] <h_howee> the cd works on my other comp
[02:01] <riotkittie> h_howee: do you have multiple CD drives? if so, try the other as only one may be bootable
[02:01] <h_howee> its just this one that it's not working on
[02:01] <gnomefreak> unop
[02:01] <h_howee> @riotkittie: i tried that too, neither works
[02:01] <Jordan_U> h_howee, But does any CD boot on that comp? I am guessing that it is a problem with the drive
[02:02] <runemaste644> who got banned?
[02:02] <DFlame> doublecheck that boot order to make sure CD is definitly first, and try any free bootdisk in it
[02:02] <h_howee> other cds work
[02:02] <runemaste644> just curious :)
[02:02] <h_howee> i just can't boot from the xp cd
[02:02] <scguy318> h_howee: is it something you burned? maybe its not bootable
[02:02] <DFlame> does it boot from any other bootdisk though?
[02:02] <Jordan_U> h_howee, So you can't boot Ubuntu or XP CD's ? Sounds again like a drive or BIOS problem
[02:02] <Tecnol> somebody help when i start my pc his is conected with "pppoe" on run "ifconfig" shows external ip but a can navigate lol
[02:02] <amio> JOrdan_U no simply I just downloaded kde desktop to the ubuntu so I have 2 but the main is gnome first I was able to sign in kde but when I removed fglrx and xgl I got this trouble that neither kde nor gnome works they show me smany colors on screen
[02:03] <h_howee> ubuntu cd works
[02:03] <h_howee> its the xp cd that doesnt
[02:03] <DFlame> the problem is your disc then
[02:03] <noelferreira> how can i make a script or change /etc/network/interfaces that my wireless card connects on startup to both two different connections. One encrypted and the other with no encryption?
[02:03] <riotkittie> yea. your disc is toast.
[02:03] <h_howee> i know it's not the disc, I've just tried it on another comp

[02:07] <riotkittie> although GRUB should have autoadded it to the list... assuming you used the live disc

[02:27] <Forager> Ectospasm..  PM Ready
[02:29] <Skiff> guys /home prtition should be primary/logical then should it be in the beginning or end?
[02:29] <corphip> Hello.  I'm running my nVidia driver in restricted mode.  Is this a big issue or can I finally be done screwing around with it!
[02:29] <AndrewB> Skiff: It doesn't matter really.
[02:29] <murkyMurk> Skiff: /home is non critical, can be anything really
[02:30] <scguy318> corphip: nope, unless you're having problems
[02:30] <Skiff> AndrewB, and murkyMurk ok but swap should be in the end and / should be in the beginning correct all primaries as well
[02:30] <murkyMurk> corphip: I run my NVidia with restricte drivers...much better. You're done screwinga round now
[02:30] <dxdt> How can I make aptitude show package versions of what I"m searching?
[02:31] <corphip> scguy318 - I was in Fedora 7 and it locked up all the time.  Haven't had that happen in Ubuntu, but I only just recently got my display above 640x480.  *fingers crossed*
[02:31] <Forager> ectospasm, I initiated a private chat, waiting for you...
[02:31] <scguy318> corphip: you might wanna backup xorg.conf
[02:32] <corphip> scguy318 - lol, how encouraging.  I have serveral backups, but unfrotunately at this point, I'm not sure which are the working copies!
[02:32] <murkyMurk> Applications -> Add/Remove programs is cool
[02:32] <AndrewB> Forager: you need to regi with nickserv so send PMs. Or ectospasm will need  to let himself see PMs from all members..
[02:33] <Forager> thanks AndrewB...
[02:33] <corphip> scguy318, i'll just rebuild it if i have to... what is the command?  dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:34] <DjViper> scguy318: hm im still having trouble getting it to connect to msn
[02:35] <murkyMurk> corphip: yeah, and then System->Administration->Restricted Manager to re-enable Nvidia
[02:35] <Skiff> guys should I choose to install BootLoader or not (dont know what it does)
[02:35] <murkyMurk> Skiff: no boot loader = no boot
[02:36] <Skiff> lol so why does it come as an option in advanced ;)?
[02:36] <Skiff> obviously without it, nothing is going to work
[02:36] <corphip> murkyMurk - thanks for confirming.  I had to install something (linux-restircited-modules-common and linux-restircted-modules-generic) to get it to work in restricted mode
[02:36] <murkyMurk> Skiff: that is  avery good question....which version are you installing
[02:36] <corphip> murkyMurk, why wouldn't this be setup by default?
[02:36] <Skiff> murkyMurk, 7.10 beta
[02:36] <murkyMurk> corphip: just licensing issues
[02:37] <murkyMurk> Skiff: graphical or alt?
[02:37] <robbie_crash> anyone here know anything about installing windows in a way that won't destroy my ubuntu install?
[02:37] <PriceChild> !gutsy | Skiff murkyMurk
[02:37] <ubotu> Skiff murkyMurk: 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
[02:37] <Skiff> murkyMurk, graphical
[02:37] <corphip> murkyMurk, that's a shame.  as a newbie it really took way to long to get the basics setup (stable system, video, wireless).  Although, I guess two evenings work isn't too bad
[02:37] <wastrel> !grub | robbie_crash
[02:37] <ubotu> robbie_crash: 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
[02:37] <robbie_crash> Do I just need to install it then reinstall grub>?
[02:37] <wastrel> yeah
[02:37] <robbie_crash> guess so
[02:37] <robbie_crash> thanks
[02:38] <murkyMurk> Skiff: yeah, as Price says, ubuntu+1 for that butI had the same,,it IS still Beta
[02:38] <reverendnathan> Quick question, bosses: Will Gutsy Gibbon's final release mark the launch of KDE 4 with Ubuntu? Or will I have to wait another generation for it to come about?
[02:38] <shiznit> can anyone help me with a hibernate issue please?
[02:38] <PriceChild> reverendnathan, won't be in gutsy as it isn't even released yet.
[02:39] <shiznit> is kde faster?
[02:39] <murkyMurk> robbie_crash: just stick it on an empty partition and expect it to overwrite the boot loader...so be prepared to reinstall grub to the MBR
[02:39] <reverendnathan> PriceChild: Thanks. I want to switch back to Ubuntu with the release of KDE 4, since my distro now is a little slow with KDE packages.
[02:39] <robbie_crash> yeah, thanks murkyMurk
[02:39] <amio> is there any way to remove all graphic looking and clean pc from them then reinstall them?
[02:39] <PriceChild> !nero

[02:45] <tret> anybody using a PC5750 card to connect
[02:45] <murkyMurk> q_: Ubuntu uses gnome, Xubuntu uses XFCE, Kubuntu uses KDE...all are linux Ubuntu but with different 'flavours' of GUI
[02:45] <q_> now I want to ubntu new but I  dont know install (how)
[02:45] <Kman> anyone here has dlink wifi dwl-g122 revision c1 working with ubuntu??? contact me in private please!

[02:46] <scguy318> Kman: you reged with NickServ?
[02:46] <wastrel> amio: you probably have to restore your old xorg.conf
[02:46] <Kman> scguy318: no
[02:46] <q_> you send the a code I install new ubuntu
[02:46] <tret> i have the card working
[02:46] <q_> ok?
[02:46] <scguy318> Kman: then you wont be able to receive PMs :P
[02:46] <scguy318> Kman: i think
[02:46] <shiznit> how much ram does xubuntu use?
[02:46] <amadeux> how do I disable that annoying gnome snap thing?
[02:47] <murkyMurk> amio: xgl can be a right pain. I'm sure there's a dedicated help channel just for it, packed with experrts waiting to help
[02:47] <wastrel> amadeux: snap to edges?
[02:47] <murkyMurk> !xgl
[02:47] <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
[02:47] <Scunizi> amio, you might look in /etc/X11/ for an auto backup of your xorg.conf.. just restore it and restart kdm
[02:47] <CaptainMorgan> !shockwave
[02:47] <ubotu> Shockwave is currently only available for Windows. To run it under !Wine, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Shockwave
[02:47] <shiznit> i got xgl to work, then found out i didnt need it lol
[02:47] <murkyMurk> amio: yeah, go to #ubuntu-effects
[02:47] <amadeux> wastrel: yeah, prolly
[02:47] <amio> wastrel and this what I did I restored and still
[02:48] <wastrel> amio: maybe  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:48] <amio> scunizi there is 2 copies even not only one I did it by nano same troubles
[02:48] <amio> wastrel I did and nothing fix
[02:48] <wastrel> amadeux: i think you can find it in gconf-editor  apps > metacity
[02:48] <amio> murkyMurk I will try also there but still the question in general here
[02:48] <Scunizi> amio, there might be one with a ~ in the name or .bak or something to that effect.. worth looking at them with nano to see if they are clean of xgl lines.
[02:49] <shiznit> if you have compiz working on regular feisty there is not need for xgl right?
[02:49] <murkyMurk> amio:  i ended up without any window borders....it was easier to upgrade to gutsy that work out what i'd broken ;-)
[02:49] <q_> murkyMurk> I want to new ubuntu install code because I have ubuntu last
[02:49] <tret> any modem wizards out there?
[02:49] <Kman> anyone here has dlink wifi dwl-g122 revision c1 working with ubuntu??? thanks
[02:49] <amio> Scunizi well there was one I deleted it it by mistake but even it still same file as lets say xorg.conf.2
[02:50] <amadeux> wastrel: there is nothing about snap
[02:50] <Scunizi> amio, if you can find one that's clean rename it and restart gdm to see if it works.
[02:50] <murkyMurk> q_: ahhh, next Ubuntu will be released in a few weeks...it's called Gutsy.... http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[02:51] <johnstar> gutsy rocks
[02:51] <shiznit> any chance of it slipping?
[02:51] <amio> murkyMurk not for desktops on this laptop I had only 2 problems I solved on graphics and effects now fine but the other desktop gutsy made it messy with slow moves thats why I tried to play then I destroyed all now and dont know what to do
[02:51] <q_> but I dont know because not good ubuntu ..
[02:52] <murkyMurk> amio: reinstall Gutsy.
[02:52] <amio> Scunizi I did xorg.conf.1 was clean used it before when I had previous troubles but still not working I think I removed xserver.xgl by mistake and when I type instal it says no package was found in this name
[02:52] <Eldemon> staff knows to say if exists drive for speedstream 4200 usb?
[02:52] <amio> murkyMurk that was upgrade and I have many important files I dont wanna loose of formatting or messing with new instalation
[02:52] <murkyMurk> q_; Next GOOD up from 6.06 is 7.04
[02:52] <Scunizi> amio, sorry I don't run xgl so I'm at a loss here.. Try #ubuntu-effects
[02:53] <amio> Scunizi do you run something else? what is it please?
[02:53] <q_> yes ok but I dont know  install next ubuntu :S
[02:53] <Scunizi> amio, on my feisty I have compiz and beryl.  my production machine is Dapper 6.06 with no effects..
[02:54] <murkyMurk> amio: sorry, don't knwo what you might have broken, Gutsy has compiz-fusion built in and never needs xgl installed on top
[02:54] <TQuid> Is there a place to refer to "today's latest gutsy gripes"?
[02:54] <Scunizi> TQuid, bug reports?
[02:54] <q_> how do I install new ubuntu ?
[02:54] <wastrel> TQuid: #ubuntu+1
[02:55] <TQuid> Danke.
[02:55] <Scunizi> bitter
[02:55] <q_> I write terminal (  c o d e ???)
[02:55] <amio> murkyMurk so compiz doesnt need xserver-xgl?
[02:55] <shiznit> not for me
[02:55] <amio> Scunizi thanks
[02:55] <Scunizi> np
[02:55] <Pici> !beta > q_ (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[02:56] <murkyMurk> amio: there is no need to install xgl on Gutsy,,,,you just turn on the effects from the menu
[02:56] <shiznit> about xgl, is it needed if you can run compiz with the default x
[02:56] <q_> murkyMurk;I 'l l  write terminal (  c o d e ???)
[02:56] <shiznit> i installed it fine, but its really slo
[02:56] <amio> but xgl is effect? or its something to make pc work with graphics at all instead of text?
[02:56] <Pici> q_: What is your native language?
[02:57] <Cryoniq> I am configuring ntfs-3g and I wonder about the locale.. I have a disk with ntfs partition that used to be under a Swedish version of XP. Which locale should I use?
[02:57] <q_> :S I am turkish sorry not ing
[02:57] <gryvyk> TQuid: today's gutsy gripe: tzdata.postinst...
[02:57] <q_> but I know little ing
[02:57] <Pici> q_: Have you asked in #ubuntu-tr?
[02:57] <murkyMurk> Okay....xgl aixgl compiz beryl emerald compiz-fusin  it's complicated enough without trying to understand it ;-) In Gutsy, it's compiz-fusion, AFAIK it uses xgl but you don't have to install it, it's built in
[02:58] <amadeux> How do I disable the gnome window snap annoyance?
[02:58] <allorder> hi everyone, when I put a cd it doesnt auto mount and cant see anything in the folder what I can do ?
[02:58] <q_> pici ; ok I 'll see
[02:58] <q_> thank you
[02:58] <Cryoniq> amadeux: I think that is under the woobly windows part in the config.
[02:58] <q_> but www. ... com ???
[02:58] <amadeux> Cryoniq: I am not running compiz
[02:58] <Cryoniq> oh

[03:12] <q_> with terminal
[03:13] <wastrel> q_ you want to upgrade to the newest version of ubuntu?
[03:13] <Evanlec> q_: this channel is for english speakers only

[03:13] <wastrel> q_: read the instructions there
[03:13] <Evanlec> okay sry maybe that was a little harsh
[03:13] <devaudio> using Gnome/compiz that came with ubuntu gutsy gibbon
[03:14] <wastrel> devaudio: gusty channel is #ubuntu+1
[03:14] <untz> I don't even know who is talking to who?

[03:14] <q_> ok thank but I dont know ubuntu installl by me with terminal
[03:14] <tecnol> anyone help about pppoe connection ?
[03:14] <wastrel> untz: some themes have to be manually installed if they're not packaged correctly,
[03:14] <Evanlec> wastrel: his question is not gutsy specific i believe
[03:15] <untz> so, how would you manually install them and what file type is the ThemeManager looking for?
[03:15] <Evanlec> wastrel: because i too would like to know how to set gnome to remember a window location/size
[03:15] <devaudio> yeah i would think it's the same in feisty or gutsy it's not like gnome changed that much
[03:15] <wastrel> Evanlec: compiz fusion is enabled by default in gusty, and isn't in feisty at all, so i assume it matters what he's running
[03:15] <devaudio> well let's lie and say it's gnome and i am using metacity now
[03:15] <Evanlec> wastrel: do u know how to set gnome to remember a window location in metacity?
[03:16] <wastrel> not off the top of my head
[03:16] <Evanlec> wastrel: cuz i'd LOVE to know...been wonderin about this for a while
[03:16] <kujo> i've been googling around. do you guys know if it is possible to install an operating system on an external hard drive?
[03:16] <Evanlec> kujo: it is possible but not recommended
[03:16] <astro76> Evanlec, heard of devilspie?
[03:17] <frostburn> kujo, yes it is, but the motherboard must be able to support usb booting and the such
[03:17] <astro76> !info devilspie
[03:17] <ubotu> devilspie: find windows and perform actions on them. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.20.2-1 (feisty), package size 33 kB, installed size 132 kB
[03:17] <kujo> why i it not recommended?
[03:17] <Evanlec> astro76: yea...and it looks more complicated than remembering a window location should be?
[03:18] <Vaxter> hi there people
[03:18] <boghog> hi Vaxter
[03:18] <devaudio> gah googling for the info shows that window positions in linux in general are worse than the whole copy/paste debacle
[03:18] <orangefly> how do i detect amount of ram fro ubuntu....???....
[03:18] <Evanlec> astro76: i dunno, is devilspie really a piece of cake (or pie lol)
[03:18] <Vaxter> anyone playing ioquake under ubuntu?
[03:18] <Vaxter> i am having a network playing problem
[03:19] <astro76> Evanlec, hehe, it really doesn't look that bad
[03:19] <saeed> hi all
[03:20] <I`ll_Begin> Hey. I have a question
[03:20] <runemaste644> dont ask to ask, ask away.
[03:20] <I`ll_Begin> I'm temporarily using Ubuntu because I'm having computer problems, and I found that I haven't got any permission to do anything.
[03:20] <Vaxter> anyone? ioquake?
[03:21] <Vaxter> or where i should ask? D
[03:21] <Evanlec> astro76: it still seems too complex for something windows can do rather easily
[03:21] <corphip> How do you exit the full screen mode of Terminal Server Client?
[03:21] <CoasterMaster> I`ll_Begin, what kind of things do you need permission to do?
[03:21] <CoasterMaster> wait, is it write to your windows drive?
[03:21] <I`ll_Begin> Install Java, and yes, write to my Windows drive
[03:22] <CoasterMaster> I`ll_Begin, writing to a windows drive actually needs a special driver called ntfs-3g
[03:22] <wastrel> I`ll_Begin:  you probably want  !sudo  !java and !ntfs
[03:22] <CoasterMaster> !ntfs-3g | I`ll_Begin
[03:22] <ubotu> I`ll_Begin: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:22] <runemaste644> Contact your system administrator, and ask if he could allow you to install Java
[03:22] <Evanlec> corphip: isnt that a contradiction, terminal server client??
[03:22] <I`ll_Begin> A'ight. I'll contact myself. ;P
[03:22] <CoasterMaster> Oh yes, and running commands prepended with sudo will allow you run things as the master account
[03:23] <runemaste644> :/
[03:23] <corphip> evanlec - http://www.linuxtsc.org/features
[03:23] <wastrel> !java | I`ll_Begin
[03:23] <ubotu> I`ll_Begin: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[03:23] <wastrel> !sudo | I`ll_Begin
[03:23] <ubotu> I`ll_Begin: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:23] <Evanlec> corphip: evan@ubuntu:~$ first.py
[03:23] <wastrel> I`ll_Begin: read links  :] 
[03:23] <corphip> Evanlec - sorry, didn't catch that.
[03:23] <I`ll_Begin> Ok. I'll be a sec
[03:23] <astro76> Evanlec, you know now that I think about it... Gnome saves window sizes and locations on my machines
[03:24] <lastent> hi which tool is the best for recording the desktop?
[03:24] <Vaxter> KSnapshot
[03:24] <Vaxter> if you are on kubuntu
[03:24] <corphip> what is the keyboard shortcut to switch between switching between workspaces?
[03:24] <astro76> Evanlec, by default in feisty... what does yours do?
[03:25] <wastrel> corphip: ctrl -alt  -arrow keys
[03:25] <RoC_MasterMind> I have a 2nd nic card I just added to my desktop...it's a PCI Rosewill RC-402...a bunch of people say it's linux and ubuntu compatible on newegg, but it doesn't show up under Administrator/Network, nor under lspci...HELP!
[03:25] <corphip> wastrel - thanks, is there a way to setup more than the default to in feisty?
[03:25] <Vaxter> corphip, u colud c all of the shotcuts in system settings
[03:25] <Evanlec> astro76: mine seems to do that maybe a little...but not with any control
[03:25] <wastrel> corphip: system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts
[03:25] <amio> any one please knows what does the syntax makes? I see when I restart the graphic mode x it says failed configuring or detecting something of syntax
[03:26] <lix> Hi. How can I become (contribute) an official gutsy beta mirror (http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/gutsybeta) ?
[03:26] <wastrel> lix: #ubuntu+1 for gusty
[03:26] <corphip> wastrel - brilliant, thank you
[03:26] <lix> wastrel: tnx
[03:27] <wastrel> RoC_MasterMind: have you figured out what kernel module (driver) supports that card?
[03:27] <Dominicus2> I have ubuntu 6.10 desktop on cd. I'm trying to install it onto an older HP Pavilion 6730, but the video ends up looking all scrambled during startup. Can anyone direct me on what to do towards resolving ths issue. According to Windows, there's an Intel 810 onboard for the video. I can get the installer to not display the splash screen and show me the detailed startup messages, but once it hits Xorg... it won't do much more than that.
[03:27] <Vaxter> not a single soul plays ioquake around here?
[03:28] <RoC_MasterMind> wastrel, no, but shoudn't a kernel module load automatically?
[03:28] <wastrel> Dominicus2: workaround is to use the alternate install cd which doesn't need X  then fix the video issue post-install
[03:28] <RoC_MasterMind> It did for everybody else obviously.
[03:28] <Forager> Question:  the version 7.04 Server edition Gui or all text like 6.06?
[03:28] <astro76> Dominicus2, you might want to use 7.04 too
[03:28] <wastrel> RoC_MasterMind:  dunno, but that's the first step in troubleshooting, at least that's what i'd do :] 
[03:29] <RoC_MasterMind> how can I find it wastrel ?
[03:29] <Kstrings> Forager, server editions do not have X by default.
[03:29] <wastrel> RoC_MasterMind: if it doesn't show up in lspci, it might indicate that the card is not installed correctly or that it's turned off in the BIOS however
[03:29] <wastrel> RoC_MasterMind: google for it :] 
[03:29] <krammer> hi
[03:30] <apus84> notte
[03:30] <Vaxter> Dominicus2, u could enter in single user mode, disable X, and reboot
[03:30] <Dominicus2> wastrel, astro76 ... thank you. I'll try that.
[03:30] <Vaxter> then all you have is tty
[03:31] <wintermu1e> I have to network interfaces that come up on boot, but only one of them is actually connected to a network, how do I setup the route to use the one that works
[03:32] <MythbuntuGuest42> hello
[03:32] <Forager> thanks.
[03:32] <wastrel> wintermu1e: you can configure the default route in /etc/network/interfaces
[03:32] <amio> any one please knows what does the syntax makes? I see when I restart the graphic mode x it says failed configuring or detecting something of syntax
[03:33] <wintermu1e> wastrel: the default route depends on what network is connected though
[03:33] <wastrel> wintermu1e: you're using wifi or dhcp or something?
[03:33] <wastrel> you can always set the default route with "route add default gw <gateway ip>"  (needs sudo of course)
[03:34] <wintermu1e> wastrel: interchanging wifi and wired
[03:34] <navets> i need some help with css: when my inline list of stuff carries over to the next line, how caN i add margin to the top?
[03:34] <RoC_MasterMind> wastrel, my BIOS doesn't list this RC-402 or any nic cards at all, it's an old PIII-500Mhz....American Megatrends....the card's link light is solid when I plug something in....why doesn't it show up at all under UbuntU/
[03:34] <navets> nobody is avialable anywhere else to answer so if anyone knows I would appreciate the help
[03:34] <Hansel> hrrmm...
[03:34] <MythbuntuGuest42> can someone help me install ubuntu.. I am a new to this

[03:35] <Lifeisfunny> darrell, is there a channel called #Beryl ?
[03:35] <bruenig> !please | ze
[03:35] <ubotu> ze: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience
[03:35] <Lifeisfunny> maybe ask there
[03:35] <bruenig> !return | zetheroo
[03:35] <ubotu> zetheroo: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:35] <wintermu1e> wastrel: the problem is that its a headless box that I want to come up right in either case
[03:35] <darrell> is it ubuntu
[03:35] <zetheroo> I am tring to run Azureus but I get the following error
[03:35] <zetheroo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38980/
[03:35] <zetheroo> please help!
[03:35] <AndrewB> Anybody any idea why I keep getting this error? http://pastebin.ca/719213
[03:35] <wastrel> wintermu1e: heh damfino, script something and stick it in rc.local ?
[03:35] <astro76> !repeat | zetheroo
[03:35] <ubotu> zetheroo: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[03:36] <Scunizi> Lifeisfunny, #ubuntu-effects
[03:36] <wastrel> RoC_MasterMind: remove and reseat the card?    idunno :] 
[03:36] <wintermu1e> wastrel: yeah, I guess so, was trying to use interfaces though
[03:36] <zetheroo> astro76: I find that repeating myself a couple times can help me get an answer becasue sometimes things are missed...
[03:37] <astro76> in here it will get you ignored or kicked
[03:37] <MythbuntuGuest42> I am doing a new install.. i cant get past prepare partitions ...
[03:37] <zetheroo> astro76: so do you wanna help me ? -- or just lecture me?
[03:37] <RoC_MasterMind> wastrel, I will try reseating it
[03:37] <usser> hey guys just wondering does anyone have amd x2 5000+ CPU?
[03:38] <Kstrings> MythbuntuGuest42: Give a little more detail on "Cant get pate perpare partitions"
[03:38] <usser> damn thing shows its only got 1000mhz
[03:38] <MarcN> MythbuntuGuest42: so what is the problem?
[03:38] <MythbuntuGuest42> i cant see any partitions.. how do i erase my drive and start new
[03:38] <twiggz_> !attitude | zetheroo don't be a douche
[03:38] <ubotu> zetheroo don't be a douche: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[03:38] <krammer> fresh install
[03:38] <MythbuntuGuest42> sudo fdisk -l ... or something
[03:38] <MarcN> MythbuntuGuest42: you don't have anything on that disk that you care about, right?
[03:39] <MythbuntuGuest42> yes a fresh install
[03:39] <MarcN> MythbuntuGuest42: gparted or fdisk /dev/hda from the command line
[03:39] <MythbuntuGuest42> right
[03:39] <MythbuntuGuest42> ok can i do this from the live cd
[03:39] <uuesley> anyone ever run a server with everything but /boot encypted?
[03:39] <zetheroo> twiggz_ : look I am not trying to be nasty or anything.... just think its a bit ridiculous to start knocking someone about for having simply asked their question twice....... sigh....
[03:40] <MarcN> MythbuntuGuest42: sure, fdisk should be there already, you may need to install gparted, but that is simple.  It has a nice gui
[03:40] <usser> hey guys just wondering does anyone have amd x2 5000+ CPU?
[03:40] <zetheroo> twiggz_: all the energy could have been used helping me out instead..... tsktsk
[03:40] <bruenig> zetheroo, if you are going to obnoxiously repeat every 20 seconds at least have the decency to put your message on one line
[03:40] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, if you have a live cd you're going to install from, you will have the option at one point to take the entire drive or manually delete the partitions and redo them.. this is all durning the install process.
[03:41] <MythbuntuGuest42> yes that is where i am stuck.. it only says manual
[03:41] <MythbuntuGuest42> and i do not see any partitions
[03:41] <zetheroo> bruenig: what is with you guy??? I am asking a small question here and everyone is acting like I broke the code of Linux Users....
[03:41] <runemaste644> Where would Metacity themes be on my system?
[03:41] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, but do you see space?
[03:41] <zetheroo> bruenig: whats with having to have it on one line anyway?.....
[03:41] <darrell> How do I get to #Beryl
[03:41] <runemaste644>  !metacity
[03:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about metacity - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:41] <bruenig> zetheroo, 1044 users in here, now think in your head what that means
[03:42] <runemaste644>  !gnome
[03:42] <ubotu> gnome is a project that provides two things: The GNOME desktop environment, an intuitive and attractive desktop for end-users, users, and the GNOME development platform, an extensive framework for building applications that integrate into the rest of the desktop.
[03:42] <krammer> Darrel: it should be with ur distro
[03:42] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, in other words, "un-partitioned" space
[03:42] <MythbuntuGuest42> no it does not show anything
[03:42] <darrell> I'm using Xchat and I'm new to IRC
[03:42] <rowdy> i am getting invalid or corrupt kernel image when i try to install ubuntu
[03:42] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, are you using the live cd now?
[03:43] <zetheroo> bruenig: so now that everyone has racked me over the coals of fire with the "thou shalt not's", would anyone care to help me .... please?

[03:43] <ibbill> heres where I learned to install ubuntu feisty http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu704  the best i have seen
[03:43] <Coder`> Can any one offer me shell on ubuntu machine for learning purpose ???  PM me if any one need beta testers

[03:44] <Kammo`> hm, banshee is only submitting one song every hour or so to last.fm it seems
[03:44] <zetheroo> bruenig: OK.... I will ask very sweetly.... dear wonderful bruenig, will you please help me solve this problem I am having?
[03:44] <MythbuntuGuest42> is it not seeing my harddrive
[03:44] <bruenig> I didn't look at the paste because of the three lines so I don't know what it is
[03:44] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, and it only gives a manual option?  strange.. get to the terminal and type fdisk -l
[03:44] <Nyle> does ubuntu use debian packages?
[03:44] <Kammo`> anyone have any thoughts?
[03:44] <Pici> Nyle: Yes.
[03:44] <heguru> zetheroo: for starters why not paste this file to pastebin hs_err_pid9456.log
[03:45] <Nyle> Pici: from which debian release?
[03:45] <Pici> Nyle: to some extent at least, Packages made specifically for debian may not work properly, but .debs made for ubuntu work fine.
[03:45] <Scunizi> Nyle, typically stable.. but there is augmentation
[03:45] <wastrel> Nyle: ubuntu takes a snapshot of sid , then works on it for 6 months then releaes (basically)
[03:45] <usser> Coder`: what do u want to do with the shell?
[03:45] <Nyle> well guys   which one is it?
[03:45] <wastrel> heh
[03:45] <usser> Coder`: why cant u have linux installed on your own machine
[03:45] <zetheroo> heguru: sorry..... dunno what you mean...
[03:46] <Nyle> sid is not good
[03:46] <heguru> zetheroo: your last paste includes this line: An error report file with more information is saved as hs_err_pid9456.log
[03:46] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, did you get there?  Terminal is under Applications/Accessories
[03:46] <Nyle> at least to base a distro on
[03:46] <untz> Hello there
[03:46] <Scunizi> Nyle, works for ubuntu
[03:46] <MythbuntuGuest42> was that fdisk -l?
[03:46] <Scunizi> yes

[03:47] <zetheroo> heguru: do you know where I would find that file?
[03:47] <untz> what are the best Fonts to download for Ubuntu?
[03:47] <MythbuntuGuest42> from run command?
[03:47] <Nyle> xfonts-terminus is my fav

[03:48] <allorder> I have problem with my cdrom, can someone take a look at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38981/

[03:49] <Coder`> lolz
[03:49] <Coder`> :)
[03:49] <untz> How does one install  xfonts-terminus, can it be done using apt-get?
[03:49] <wastrel> yes
[03:50] <MythbuntuGuest42> ok i typed fdisk -l
[03:50] <attunix> anyone know of any blender mirrors? the main server doesn't seem to be up
[03:50] <Kstrings> Coder:  Its because someone takes a huge risk giving anyone (espically some random person on IRC) any kind of shell access.
[03:50] <MythbuntuGuest42> it does not do anything
[03:50] <zetheroo> heguru: I dunno where Azureus is installed or where I ran it from
[03:50] <MythbuntuGuest42> how can i tell if it is seeing my harddrive
[03:50] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42,  what version of ubuntu live cd are you using
[03:50] <untz> Okay, I installed it doing this:  sudo apt-get install xfonts-terminus
[03:51] <darrell> need help beryl
[03:51] <zetheroo> heguru: is there a way to search for the file?
[03:51] <MythbuntuGuest42> kubunto 7.04
[03:51] <untz> But at the end of the installation, it stated this:
[03:51] <untz>  sudo apt-get install xfonts-terminus
[03:51] <heguru> zetheroo: try typing in the terminal: azureus
[03:51] <Scunizi> darrell, #ubuntu-effects
[03:51] <BarryToeman> attunix: blender.org is working for me

[03:51] <attunix> BarryToeman: I mean for the download
[03:52] <zetheroo> heguru: yes.... and there is where I get the error
[03:52] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, just trying to eliminate possibilities here so don't take offense.. but did you build this machine or install the HD yourself?
[03:52] <MythbuntuGuest42> blender rocks.. i wished i new how to use it
[03:52] <attunix> BarryToeman: o, got it :D
[03:52] <MythbuntuGuest42> ummm
[03:52] <heguru> zetheroo: now check in that folder if you have the log file
[03:52] <MythbuntuGuest42> iit is an old machine
[03:52] <attunix> MythbuntuGuest42: I don't know either; that's what Wikibooks and the manual is for :)
[03:52] <MythbuntuGuest42> it runs window me
[03:52] <I`ll_Begin> Ok, I followed what the article on ntfs-3g said, but it hasn't solved my problem. When i try to modify an existing file it's still read only. The permissions tab in the file's properties says I don't own the file.
[03:53] <zetheroo> heguru: what folder?
[03:53] <I`ll_Begin> Anywho. I'll check out Java now and see if I can get THAT working
[03:54] <meoblast001> hello

[03:54] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, if it's old enough it might not have a standard ide channel for the harddrive. I've forgotten the standard before, I think ISA or something similar.. that might be a problem.. WinMe state of the art was .. what.. 7 yrs ago?
[03:54] <meoblast001> i suck at compiling and i cant even compile my own program
[03:55] <Lifeisfunny> I just loaded Firestarter and am having trouble with it....

[03:55] <zetheroo> heguru: I searched for the file and it was not found
[03:55] <meoblast001> can anyone give me some instructions for installing an SDL KDevelop program
[03:55] <MythbuntuGuest42> when you asked me if i built it
[03:55] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, how
[03:55] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, hows that?
[03:55] <_MattB> i created a script to backup, tar, and ftp the files in a directory, now how can I schedule this to run every night (ubuntu server) ?
[03:55] <zetheroo> heguru: I searched the whole Filesystem.....
[03:55] <wastrel> _MattB: cron
[03:55] <mohammed> hi
[03:55] <MythbuntuGuest42> i did not plug the power into it... i am an idiot
[03:56] <heguru> zetheroo: I don't know then
[03:56] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, :)
[03:56] <wastrel> _MattB: man cron  & man 5 crontab
[03:56] <zetheroo> heguru: ok... well thanks for trying to help!
[03:56] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, so glad I could help... :-))
[03:56] <wastrel> what file
[03:56] <_MattB> k, thx
[03:57] <MythbuntuGuest42> sometimes.. I forget to check the obvious things
[03:57] <goatz> anyone here any good with usb?
[03:57] <meoblast001> what does the following mean?
[03:57] <zetheroo> would anyone know why I am getting this error when tring to run Azureus.... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38980/
[03:57] <meoblast001> ./configure: line 1636: syntax error near unexpected token `config.h'
[03:57] <meoblast001> ./configure: line 1636: `AM_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h)'
[03:58] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, I'll bet if you try to install again it'll work!  Also, your installing Kubuntu.. their support channel is #kubuntu for more specific kubuntu questions.. Gnome here in this channel.
[03:58] <wastrel> meoblast001: looks like there's a syntax error in config.h
[03:58] <MythbuntuGuest42> oh
[03:58] <MythbuntuGuest42> ok
[03:58] <hoohoo> hello everyone
[03:58] <MythbuntuGuest42> i am new to this
[03:58] <meoblast001> wastrel: KDevelop made that file for me
[03:59] <hoohoo> yeah I 'm new too
[03:59] <Catsceo> where are all of the packages I download via apt go?  /var/something?
[03:59] <MythbuntuGuest42> a friend from work told me to try it out
[03:59] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, no problem.. I like kde too. It's just that I find myself more productive in Gnome and more playful in kde..  I do have to work sometime. :)
[03:59] <zetheroo> anyone?/
[03:59] <MythbuntuGuest42> well, thanks.. how do i change channels
[03:59] <nickrud> Catsceo: /var/cache/apt/archives
[04:00] <_MattB> can i really just put that shell script right into cron.daily and then call it a night?
[04:00] <Scunizi> zetheroo, you have an issue with java.. if you're trying to install asureus from an external source you might want to try from synaptic first.. It might eliminate the errors.
[04:00] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, /join #kubuntu
[04:00] <Elliot> hello
[04:00] <meoblast001> wastrel: the first line says what it should have, the second what it does
[04:00] <hoohoo> scunizi is  a nice guy
[04:00] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, you can have both channels open at the same time.
[04:00] <hoohoo> hello
[04:01] <zetheroo> Scunizi: I installed it from Add/Remove.... thats a safe way to install apps.... no!?
[04:01] <meoblast001> wastrel: i just commented out and put in what it said it should have
[04:01] <MythbuntuGuest42> ok thanks.. you all are great.. let me go bother them since i am tring to install it
[04:01] <Scunizi> hoohoo, I know.  I shoulda let him stew for a while.
[04:01] <PhUBUNTU> hello

[04:02] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42,  don't!  you'll pick up lots more info here that's generic to most everythink
[04:02] <Pelo> hoohoo,  with what ever you want to, your choice
[04:02] <Scunizi> *everything
[04:02] <meoblast001> yay.. my program returns "make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop." when i type "make"
[04:02] <wastrel> untz: you can right-click on it and choose "resize" or something
[04:02] <Creed> Another thing, my X server fails (no screens found). I had to use the Alternate CD to install (installed fine, X still crashes).
[04:02] <hoohoo> I am a java developer
[04:02] <zetheroo> Scunizi: I have sun-java6-bin and java-common installed.... is that all I need?
[04:03] <Scunizi> zetheroo, I have no idea..
[04:03] <nickrud> hoohoo: to get an idea about packages: !apt , !components
[04:03] <hoohoo> so I wanna develop java porgram on unbuntu
[04:03] <mohammed> Hi
[04:03] <meoblast001> i mean "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop."
[04:03] <nickrud> !apt | hoohoo
[04:03] <ubotu> hoohoo: 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)
[04:03] <Flannel> hoohoo: It's the same as on any other platform

[04:03] <MythbuntuGuest42> ok
[04:03] <zetheroo> Anyone here know about Java and Ubuntu?
[04:03] <wastrel> !java
[04:03] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[04:03] <Flannel> !anyone | zetheroo
[04:03] <ubotu> zetheroo: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:03] <hoohoo> I am used to rpm , it's dump with apt.. how to , so difrereent with rpm
[04:03] <Pelo> zetheroo, ask a specific qestion please
[04:04] <wastrel> Creed: time to start looking into what the proper driver is for your card
[04:04] <MythbuntuGuest42> my ultimate goal here is to run the myth tv stuff and get rid of my dvr
[04:04] <Pelo> hoohoo,  if you are running gui you might want to give synaptic a look , in the admin menu
[04:04] <mohammed> How To install adsl modem dynmode A360 on Ubuntu
[04:04] <MythbuntuGuest42> my friend showed me the video for linux mce
[04:04] <MythbuntuGuest42> it is great.
[04:04] <hoohoo> thanks pelo , i 'll try it
[04:04] <zetheroo> Pelo: I get this error when running Azureus http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38980/
[04:04] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, that'd be great.. however the company that provided free tv listings just stopped.. something else will come up.
[04:04] <rowdy> i am getting invalid or corrupt kernel image when i try to install ubuntu
[04:04] <zetheroo> Pelo: from what I gather its a Java error...
[04:04] <Pelo> mohammed, you should start by looking for your model in the forum and the hardware page   www.ubuntuforums.org  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[04:05] <Pelo> zetheroo, which java are you running ?
[04:05] <mohammed> thank you Pelo
[04:05] <MythbuntuGuest42> any one try to use it instead of there tivo?
[04:05] <zetheroo> Pelo: I have java-common and sun-java6-bin installed
[04:06] <zetheroo> Pelo: and sun-java6-jre
[04:06] <MythbuntuGuest42> anyone know the best way for me to go?
[04:06] <wastrel> sudo update-alternatives -config java
[04:06] <Pelo> zetheroo, did you install java from the repos or from the sun website ?
[04:06] <j2daosh> how do i automate email generatoration using 'mail'?
[04:06] <Creed> My card is a old ATI (not sure what, any way to find out?) and Ive tried the fglrx drivers, X still fails.
[04:06] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, re-phrase your question again but make it complete.. someone should pick it up.
[04:06] <zetheroo> Pelo: I installed everything from the Synaptic Package manager
[04:06] <zetheroo> repos?
[04:06] <nickrud> Creed: lspci should tell you something about your card
[04:06] <wastrel> Creed: lspci | grep VGA
[04:07] <Pelo> zetheroo, repositores that synaptic uses,  you did fine try what wastrel suggested
[04:07] <Stifts> for older ATI cards the free radeon driver is fine
[04:07] <zetheroo>  lspci | grep VGA?
[04:08] <Jork> hello
[04:08] <zetheroo> Pelo: lspci | grep VGA?
[04:08] <Jork> can anyone tell me a winrar alternative?
[04:08] <Stifts> rar
[04:08] <bruenig> !info unrar
[04:08] <ubotu> unrar: Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:3.7.3-1 (feisty), package size 94 kB, installed size 228 kB
[04:08] <Pelo> zetheroo, <wastrel> sudo update-alternatives -config java
[04:08] <Jork> thxQ!
[04:08] <nickrud> --config , rather
[04:08] <MythbuntuGuest42> oh.. just wanting anyones advice to how i should go with mythtv??
[04:08] <wastrel> yeah sry :] 
[04:09] <MythbuntuGuest42> not sure what linux mce is?
[04:09] <zetheroo> Pelo: update-alternatives: unknown argument `-config'
[04:09] <nickrud> eh, typos are my achilles heel as well
[04:09] <Pelo> zetheroo, but if you want my opinion, ditch azureus and try another (non-java) bittorrent client,   like  deluge, utorrent on wine, ktorrent or others
[04:09] <MythbuntuGuest42> or mythbuntu
[04:09] <Forager> Question:  Is there a place where I can look up hardware supported in 7.04?  Specifically Nics?
[04:09] <nickrud> zetheroo: two dashes on --config
[04:09] <zetheroo> thanks
[04:09] <meoblast001> "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop."????????????????
[04:10] <meoblast001> i get that when i type make after ./config
[04:10] <meoblast001> ./configure
[04:10] <bruenig> I hate when errors put so many question marks at the end
[04:10] <nickrud> meoblast001: then configure failed
[04:10] <Pelo> meoblast001, look in the source folder check for a INSTALL file,  read it
[04:10] <meoblast001> Pelo: already did
[04:10] <meoblast001> Pelo: this is my own program
[04:10] <meoblast001> Pelo: KDevelop made it
[04:11] <zetheroo> Pelo: ok... I am gonna go with Utorrent then
[04:11] <Pelo> meoblast001, I think you need to find a channel for the language you are using then
[04:11] <Pelo> zetheroo, you'll need to installl wine
[04:11] <zetheroo> Pelo: yes... I have already... and I run Crossover
[04:12] <Lifeisfunny> that "help" entry on the ubuntu feisty starter guide for firestarter is bogus
[04:12] <Pelo> Lifeisfunny, most of the firestarter stuff if a bit on the thin side
[04:13] <PhUBUNTU> who use phpmyadmin??????
[04:13] <warbler> Forager:https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[04:13] <PhUBUNTU> ??
[04:13] <Pelo> PhUBUNTU, try looking for a php channel
[04:13] <Forager> thanks, Warbler.
[04:13] <warbler> k
[04:13] <PhUBUNTU> Ok
[04:13] <Pelo> Lifeisfunny,  do you have a good reason to use a firewall in ubuntu or are you just comming from windows ?
[04:14] <Lifeisfunny> pelo, yeah, pretty much a nube with linux
[04:14] <sebastian> hey guys
[04:14] <Emash> what came before tcp/ip
[04:14] <Emash> ?
[04:14] <sebastian> how do i add the helix support to banshee?
[04:14] <Pelo> Lifeisfunny, don'T worry about the firewall then, it's not a neccesity in linux,  not like it is in windows
[04:14] <Lifeisfunny> I did some scanns and found ports set at closed, I'd like them stealthed
[04:15] <I`ll_Begin> these linux packages are going to take forever to download
[04:15] <wastrel> darn linux
[04:15] <MythbuntuGuest42> why is the firewall not so important in linux?
[04:15] <Pelo> sebastian,  pluggins ususaly need to be dropped in a folder in the settings folder for the app.. chick in /home for a /.banshee folder
[04:15] <wastrel> MythbuntuGuest42: because ubuntu at least doesn't have any ports open by default
[04:15] <nickrud> MythbuntuGuest42: there's no listening apps by default to be subverted
[04:16] <MythbuntuGuest42> oh
[04:16] <Pelo> Lifeisfunny,  man iptables  it is the cli userspace for netfilter wich is the actual firewall,  firestarter is jsut a gui frontend
[04:16] <sebastian> Pelo: the thing with helix is that it's got two different engines, one is helix based and one is gstreamer based ... i am wondering how to get the helix based version for ubuntu
[04:16] <Scunizi> MythbuntuGuest42, hopefully you have a router though.. as an extra layer of protection.
[04:16] <MythbuntuGuest42> what about kubuntu
[04:16] <wastrel> same thing
[04:16] <MythbuntuGuest42> ok
[04:16] <Lifeisfunny> pelo, how hacker safe is it when set to closed?
[04:16] <Pelo> sebastian, did you check in the repos ?
[04:17] <sebastian> yeah
[04:17] <sebastian> no helix banshee
[04:17] <Pelo> Lifeisfunny, don'T give out your user password and don'T run as root and you'll be fine
[04:17] <sebastian> Pelo: although it's very common in other distros
[04:17] <Pelo> sebastian, just helix
[04:17] <heguru> Pelo: I wouldn't recommend that. Even if you share a file on Linux, samba listens on both your Internet and LAN port (unlike windows where internet connections have netbios/ms file sharing disabled by default)
[04:17] <nickrud> Lifeisfunny: if it's closed, that means nothing can talk to it. In fact
[04:17] <sebastian> Pelo: yeah helix stand-alone exists ... i've got thta
[04:17] <nickrud> most of those 'closed' ports don't even have anything behind it.
[04:17] <tumbleweed_> that new security vuln is creeping me out
[04:17] <meoblast001> thats why
[04:18] <meoblast001> i didnt have automake
[04:18] <Lifeisfunny> I'm becoming disillusioned with so much back and forth fixing required with computers
[04:18] <Pelo> heguru, what ?
[04:18] <Kstrings> Lifeisfunny:  If you want security, get a cheap router and NAT out.  Tell the router not to respond to anonymous requests and you will be fine.
[04:18] <tumbleweed_> It's pretty serious
[04:18] <heguru> Pelo: i was talking about your recommendation to not use a firewall
[04:18] <tumbleweed_> allows remote code execution
[04:18] <Lifeisfunny> barely touch it and it seems to fall apart
[04:18] <tumbleweed_> and works even on the base system
[04:18] <Pelo> heguru,  if you can help Lifeisfunny  just do it
[04:18] <Scunizi> Lifeisfunny, you gotta look at it as a never ending adventure.. something new around the corner all the time.
[04:18] <wastrel> tumbleweed_: which?
[04:18] <tumbleweed_> you haven't heard of it?
[04:18] <tumbleweed_> it's pretty damn serious
[04:18] <tumbleweed_> been blogged about everywhere
[04:18] <tumbleweed_> http://rafflelot.com/?=new-ubuntu-security-vuln
[04:19] <wastrel> my compter is broken.
[04:19] <Pelo> Lifeisfunny, is this a home computer or a business one ?
[04:19] <Lifeisfunny> Pelo, home
[04:19] <MythbuntuGuest42> so.. if i use my old pc as with mythubunu.. as a tivo.. then, i am ok with no firewall
[04:19] <Lifeisfunny> connect straight to a modem
[04:19] <wastrel> !ops | tumbleweed_
[04:19] <meoblast001> Pelo: can you help me with another problem?

[04:20] <I`ll_Begin> What the..
[04:21] <gnomefreak> sorry couldnt get browser to open
[04:21] <Pelo> Lifeisfunny, I'm a home user with one comp, directly connected to a dsl modem no router, and I don'T use the firewall , and I don'T worry,  I worried in windows quite a bit
[04:21] <mneptok> pay no attention to that man behind the curtain! the great and powerful OZ has spoken!
[04:21] <DIL> yes go traigt to the closet
[04:21] <MythbuntuGuest42> man after my friend showed me the video with the gyro remote i am hooked.. but i do not know anything about linux
[04:22] <Pelo> MythbuntuGuest42,  I think there is a mythubuntu channel somewhere
[04:22] <MythbuntuGuest42> that is where i thought i was
[04:23] <Pelo> no this is the ubuntu channel,  we deal usualy with installation questions , for the os itself
[04:23] <Bad_kate> My camera (canon 350D) has recently stopped working - gets a "ptp i/o error" when connected to ubuntu. Does anyone know how to solve this?

[04:23] <meoblast001> Pelo: what does automake do? i just successfully ran it
[04:23] <nixno0b> anyone know a program that burns vcds from mp4 format?
[04:24] <Pelo> MythbuntuGuest42,  #ubuntu-mythtv
[04:24] <Pelo> meoblast001, no clue
[04:24] <Scunizi> nixno0b, have you tried k3b?
[04:24] <w51956> 
[04:24] <meoblast001> anyone know what automake does?
[04:24] <Pelo> nixno0b, devede
[04:24] <nixno0b> Scunizi, it only supports mp1 and mp2

[04:24] <Forager> What's the difference between an ext2 and ext3 partition?
[04:24] <Pelo> Scunizi, he needs something to do the conversion first
[04:25] <Bad_kate> My camera (canon 350D) has recently stopped working - gets a "ptp i/o error" when connected to ubuntu. Does anyone know how to solve this?
[04:25] <nixno0b> Pelo, thanks ill try it now.
[04:25] <Pelo> Forager, ext3 has journaling
[04:25] <nickrud> Forager: ext3 provides journaling on an ext2 partition
[04:25] <w51956> 
[04:25] <Pelo> Bad_kate,  look up the error msg in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org
[04:25] <kittyhawk> hi
[04:25] <Scunizi> nixno0b, sorry. I'm stuck.. maybe mencoder will convert but I don't know how.
[04:25] <chibitk> hey how do i install cedega?
[04:26] <Forager> I"m new to Non-Microsoft systems.. What exact;y does that mean, Pelo and nickrud?
[04:26] <Pelo> chibitk,  you get ti from their site, it is not a free software
[04:26] <MythbuntuGuest42> well yall helped me earlier.. so i do not want to leave. until i  at least get this kubuntu installed
[04:26] <rowdy> i am getting invalid or corrupt kernel image when i try to install ubuntu
[04:26] <chibitk> well i have the software......
[04:26] <kittyhawk> I keep getting an error message from the system updater, while it's trying to upgrade linux-image
[04:26] <Pelo> Forager, I think it means it keeps track or changes
[04:26] <nickrud> Forager: journaling is, very roughly, a record of changes that are made to a disk. If the disk fails, it can nearly always recover lost info from the journal
[04:26] <Pelo> kittyhawk,  are you running gutsy ?
[04:26] <chibitk> and like my wine is all messed up how i tried uninstalling it....
[04:27] <kittyhawk> oh, nevermind I just figured out that /boot is full
[04:27] <chibitk> and when i run it to re-install its still messed up
[04:27] <Forager> awesome.  Thanks!
[04:27] <nickrud> Forager: read failed as computer shut down badly
[04:27] <simplechat> hey, does anyone have any particular favourite torrent downloaders for ubuntu?
[04:27] <Pelo> chibitk, please don'T use the enter key for punctuation , it makes it hard to follow
[04:28] <meoblast001> what does "make: *** [install-recursive]  Error 1" from make install mean?
[04:28] <Pelo> simplechat,  deluge-torrent is comming along nicely but I prefer to run utorrent on wine
[04:28] <chibitk> ok pelo, how do i uninstall wine completely so the txt isnt messed up when i reinstall it?
[04:28] <Pelo> meoblast001, I think you need ##linux for those kinds of questions
[04:28] <Pelo> chibitk, use synaptic
[04:28] <meoblast001> Pelo: i needed to sudo make install :D
[04:29] <nixno0b> Pelo, devede just makes a file that i can use in k3b, correct?
[04:29] <chibitk> i did..... and when i reinstall it the txt is all messed up
[04:29] <Pelo> chibitk, and I think you ahve a bad version of wine,  try the latest
[04:29] <rowdy> #ubuntu-india
[04:29] <chibitk> hmmm well is wine what i should use to run WoW BC?
[04:29] <Pelo> nixno0b,  devede will let you encode files to the proper format and make an iso to burn to the cd with k3b or anyother
[04:30] <Flannel> chibitk: Yes
[04:30] <oblique> "unload debugger and try again" msg for max payne 1 using wine..wot to do?
[04:30] <nixno0b> Pelo, thanks.
[04:30] <Pelo> chibitk, try asking about it in #winehq
[04:30] <RoC_MasterMind__> what's "roaming mode" for a network card?
[04:30] <Flannel> chibitk:
[04:30] <Flannel> chibitk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
[04:30] <Pelo> RoC_MasterMind, looking for wifi connections
[04:30] <kittyhawk> is there any good way to profile my system and find out the best ways to make it faster?  This computer's starting to get old and everything feels slow, but I'm sure there's lots of things I could easily turn off
[04:30] <nixno0b> chibitk, i think wow runs well under wine
[04:30] <simplechat> hey, can ubuntu install next to a windows partition that hasn't finished installing?
[04:30] <RoC_MasterMind__> But like...on an Ethernet nic?
[04:30] <simplechat> ?
[04:31] <RoC_MasterMind__> What I want is when I plug it into a different networ, it tries to get another address, instead of just sitting there with invalid DHCP settings for the old network
[04:31] <RoC_MasterMind__> simplechat, yes.
[04:31] <Pelo> kittyhawk,  you can do a google search for tweaks and you can also look into turning off unused services
[04:32] <simplechat> will it boot back to the installing xp instance, and let it finish install?
[04:32] <Bad_kate> My camera (canon 350D) has recently stopped working - gets a "ptp i/o error" when connected to ubuntu. Does anyone know how to solve this?
[04:32] <simplechat> microsofts f***ed with my keys
[04:32] <simplechat> :(
[04:32] <wastrel> RoC_MasterMind__:  gnome network manager does that i think
[04:32] <RoC_MasterMind__> yeah but what does it mean??
[04:32] <wastrel> RoC_MasterMind__: mostly i just do that myself
[04:32] <simplechat> so i'm switching over to ubuntu by force (i like it, but this is the first time for my main desktop)
[04:33] <sear_yoda> hey folks - I just had a feisty -> gutsy dist-upgrade die halfway through, and now i have broken packages and update-manager no longer works. any ideas?
[04:33] <Flannel> sear_yoda: ubuntu+1 for Gutsy support, thanks
[04:33] <Pelo> simplechat,  ask again and this time don'T use the enter key for punctuation please
[04:33] <wastrel> sounds like your upgrade b0rked
[04:33] <sear_yoda> yes, yes it did
[04:33] <MythbuntuGuest42> WOW! who ever helped me earlier... it is working!!! Thanks!! I see my drive now and it is formatting
[04:33] <sear_yoda> without realizing it was a bad idea, i updated by sources.list to gutsy repositories
[04:33] <sear_yoda> so i've upgraded a ton of packages
[04:33] <Flannel> sear_yoda: #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy support, not here, thanks.
[04:34] <sear_yoda> okay, thanks
[04:34] <Pelo> sear_yoda, ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:34] <nickrud> sear_yoda: try sudo apt-get -f install while you're going
[04:34] <Pelo> nickrud, don't encourage him
[04:34] <simplechat> Pelo: Can ubuntu install next to an installing winxp instance? windows isn't validating my install so i'm going to have to leave it like that until i can somehow satiate it (footrubs?). I would like to install ubuntu so that my computer is usefull, and would like to know if that means that i need to rereinstall windows (and then ubuntu) later.
[04:34] <wastrel> it's going to be a backup & reinstall anyway
[04:35] <sear_yoda> he'll encourage me if he wants, Pelo :P
[04:35] <nickrud> nah, I'll listen to Pelo
[04:35] <Pelo> simplechat,  the ubuntu instaler will let you resize your windows partition so you can install ubuntu and dual boot
[04:35] <wastrel> simplechat: ubuntu does'nt care what state windows is in.
[04:35] <Flannel> simplechat: No, you shouldn't need to.  Windows is already installed fully, I believe.
[04:35] <simplechat> ok
[04:36] <verb3k> simplechat, many answers :)
[04:36] <Forager> woah, Pelo...   Won't resizing a Windows Partition result in the deletion of all that data?
[04:36] <Flannel> Forager: no
[04:36] <wastrel> non-destructive resizing
[04:36] <simplechat> i have a 120gig partition for windows (all it'll read) and 180 gig of free space. Can i just use the "use largest contiguous free space" option?
[04:36] <wastrel> it's fancy
[04:36] <wastrel> absolutely
[04:36] <wastrel> no need to resize if you already have free space on the drive
[04:36] <Pelo> Forager, you only resize the partition to use the empty space to make a new partition
[04:36] <simplechat> excelent :)
[04:37] <simplechat> oklopol, its formatting now
[04:37] <simplechat> *ok
[04:37] <verb3k> wastrel, unpartitioned space I guess.....I think he means a free space partitioned with win
[04:37] <simplechat> windows will come up as a boot option on grub, i'm assuming?
[04:37] <Flannel> simplechat: yep
[04:37] <Stifts> yes
[04:37] <simplechat> verb3k, windows only recognised the disk as 120 gig, for some odd reason.
[04:37] <Pelo> simplechat,  it should but if it doesn'T we can tell you how to add it
[04:38] <simplechat> Pelo, Flannel, thanks :)
[04:38] <verb3k> guys what's the file that contains my saved passwords in Firefox? and can I move it from windows to ubuntu and use it there?
[04:38] <HHornblower> is this where I ask questions about Gusty issues?
[04:38] <simplechat> Pelo: Can i read/write to my ntfs disk from ubuntu?
[04:38] <Pelo> HHornblower, in #ubuntu+1
[04:38] <heathen> hello
[04:38] <HHornblower> Pelo: thanks. :)
[04:38] <Pelo> simplechat,   you'll need to add a package to write
[04:39] <verb3k> simplechat, yes ...you can
[04:39] <MythbuntuGuest42> ahh man.. it says missing operating system
[04:39] <simplechat> Package? just an apt-get?
[04:39] <MythbuntuGuest42> i thought it installed?
[04:39] <MythbuntuGuest42> what should i do?
[04:39] <Pelo> simplechat, yes pretty much
[04:39] <MythbuntuGuest42> try again?
[04:39] <Pelo> !ntfs-3g > simplechat check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[04:40] <Pelo> !enter | MythbuntuGuest42
[04:40] <ubotu> MythbuntuGuest42: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:40] <Pelo> !who | MythbuntuGuest42
[04:40] <ubotu> MythbuntuGuest42: 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 :)
[04:40] <MythbuntuGuest42> ok
[04:40] <Pelo> MythbuntuGuest42,  and also , none of us have any idea what you are on about atm or where you are at in your proccesdure
[04:41] <simplechat> oklopol, thansk pelo
[04:41] <heathen> half of us dont know where we are anyway, let alone you
[04:41] <Forager> !ntfs-3g | Forager
[04:41] <MythbuntuGuest42> that is funny
[04:41] <Pelo> Forager,  if you want to query the bot for yourself do  /msg ubotu !trigger
[04:42] <bruenig> no need for the ! in /msg
[04:42] <Forager> Illbedarned.. It worked...
[04:42] <cdm10> is there a good way to take a tar.bz2 and split it into cd-sized chunks, and be able to recombine them again?
[04:42] <Forager> cool.. I'll try to rem that.
[04:42] <bruenig> cdm10, split and then cat
[04:42] <bruenig> cdm10, well split, burn, move over, then cat
[04:43] <cdm10> bruenig: ok, I knew cat, but I should have at least tried man split :)
[04:43] <tigga_> if using wine 0.9.45 on ubuntu 7.04 do some games like max payne 1 play slower for others as they do for me?...and why?
[04:43] <Forager> just so I'm clear on this ntfs-3g thing.. I run Ubuntu and the wife runs win2000, I can host her files and she can map to by drive (assuming I have Samba)\
[04:43] <bruenig> be something like split -b 700000000 file
[04:44] <Pelo> tigga_, you should probably ask in #winehq
[04:44] <Pelo> Forager, no
[04:44] <cdm10> bruenig: ok. I'll probably play it safe and make it a bit smaller than that.
[04:44] <tigga_> thanks bruenig
[04:45] <Pelo> Forager, ntfs-3g is so ubuntu can write to an NTFS partition,  it has nothing to do with samba, where the host comp will do the read/writing
[04:45] <edz> how do i install codecs for totem movie player?
[04:46] <Pelo> edz,  open synaptic  , search for gstreamer , install all the gstreamer0.10  you see
[04:46] <edz> syanptic?
[04:46] <cdm10> edz: Or, if you want, just double-click a file and it'll prompt you to install the correct codec.
[04:46] <D-Flame> i know its possible to convert FAT/FAT32 to NTFS, but can it be done the other way around without losing data? Just wondering so the next time I convert an external to FAT so its both linux and windows compatible, i dont have to burn about 20 DVDs of data :P
[04:46] <Pelo> edz,  are you running  gnome or kde ?
[04:46] <Forager> pelo.  Understood.
[04:46] <edz> gnome
[04:46] <cdm10> edz: Sometimes it'll give you a few options, just check them all off.
[04:46] <sn0> D-Flame not without loosing data
[04:47] <D-Flame> good thing i have that dvd writer then eh
[04:47] <Cryoniq> Hi, I set up ntfs-3g for my internal ntfs storage disks. But when I try delete something it tells me files cannot be deleted because it is a read only disk. I thought I did what was needed for write support, so now I am clueless what to do.. anyone know this problem? :)
[04:47] <D-Flame> thanks, saves me going on a wild goose chase
[04:47] <sn0> partition tragic (magic) apparently does D-Flame
[04:47] <Pelo> edz,  menu > system> admin > synaptic package manager
[04:47] <sn0> but i cannot recommend it
[04:47] <D-Flame> tried it once, lost a system
[04:47] <edz> i got it
[04:47] <edz> thnx cdm10
[04:47] <D-Flame> never trusting it again
[04:47] <edz> and pelo
[04:47] <cdm10> edz: no problem
[04:47] <sn0> likewise :)
[04:48] <Pelo> Cryoniq, also instal ntfs-config and run it
[04:49] <Cryoniq> Pelo, I got it installed. I can run it again to be sure :)
[04:49] <WinXPNewb> Hi, how do I initiate the md5 checksum on Linux? I tried typing the command but it says there's no such file or directory. I'm using Linux Mint btw.
[04:49] <wastrel> md5sum file
[04:49] <cdm10> WinXPNewb: md5sum ./file

[04:50] <ubotu> WinXPNewb: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[04:50] <Cryoniq> Pelo: it pops up a windows and tell me that the following new partitions were detected and can be configured.. /dev/sdb1 ... That is my second drive.. hmm.. maybe I should unmount the 200 gb and run it again.. brb
[04:51] <Greyscale> bed now, night night
[04:51] <Forager> goodnight, Geryscale.
[04:51] <WinXPNewb> md5sum: LinuxMint-3.0-XFCE.iso: No such file or directory
[04:51] <WinXPNewb> That's what I keep getting.
[04:51] <chibitk> ok guys...... the winehq people are no help
[04:51] <chibitk> at all
[04:51] <chibitk> and they are mean
[04:51] <nickrud> WinXPNewb: you have to run that in the same folder that the LinuxMint iso is
[04:51] <Flannel> WinXPNewb: We don't support Linux Mint here.  This is an Ubuntu channel
[04:52] <Cryoniq> Pelo: there we go.. got both drives up.. it mounted them and let me enable write support.. hmm.. so what did that program actually do to enable write? configured fstab?
[04:52] <Flannel> chibitk: Did you read the wiki page?
[04:52] <chibitk> ??
[04:52] <nickrud> WinXPNewb: you running the ubuntu live cd?
[04:52] <Pelo> Cryoniq, yes

[04:52] <Flannel> chibitk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
[04:53] <Cryoniq> Pelo: =) Do I wont have to do that everytime I mount the drives now? :)
[04:53] <WinXPNewb> Ok, there's someone in the Mint channels now so I'll continue to ask there instead. Thanks for the help
[04:53] <Pelo> Cryoniq,  no , now that  fstab has been properly edited you'll be fine
[04:54] <simplechat> oklopol, its now installed, and is now loading
[04:54] <simplechat> its checking /dev/sda2
[04:55] <Pelo> simplechat, we don't need a play by play
[04:55] <simplechat> sorry
[04:55] <Pelo> no problem  it's just that this is a high traffic channel we don'T need to knowwhen tthing go well , just when they mess up
[04:55] <Cryoniq> Pelo, thanks :) I should take a month and just dig deep into modern Linux. Lost so much over the years. Used to do slakware a couple years back. :)
[04:56] <Pelo> Cryoniq,  then you are more leet then I , ubuntu is my first distro , and I've only been at it for a year
[04:56] <jebblue> Pelo: that is impressive then you help a lot of ppl here

[05:04] <Jimmi_jones> nickrud: I was hoping to drop one more thing off the xp box that I do, vpning in to work, but I am running into difficulties with the client, any idea where to look for help?
[05:05] <wastrel> drop
[05:05] <Cryoniq> gah.. im too kind for refusal.. well it suppose to do I heard.. but I ran it under XP.. I used dualboot.. these days I refuse windows as much as possible. And I am quite pleased with using Ubuntu to 99.9%
[05:05] <kujo> is it possible to install ubuntu to an external hdd, not affecting the internal hdd at all?
[05:05] <nickrud> Jimmi_jones: I'm sure people that use cisco vpn here, ask a few times. Or look for a cisco channel
[05:05] <pokesmot> even though ubuntu would be infinitely more productive to her, no virus/spyware/adware/nagscreens to slow her down, she prefers windows just cuz theres no relearning what was so hard to learn in the first place being well over middle aged the first time she touched a mouse.
[05:05] <timsom> hello everyone

[05:06] <timsom> i have just learn ubuntu so there are many thing i can't know well i want you to help me
[05:07] <Cryoniq> pokesmot: I was afraid my parents would be like that.. but they assimilated to Ubuntu very quick and are so happy with it. My dad is happy because he dont have to screw around with anti virus and silly updates and error boxes anymore. Things just work for them now.
[05:07] <nickrud> timsom: you've found the right place, but asking specific questions about issues you're having will work best
[05:08] <pokesmot> Cyroiq, good for them
[05:08] <timsom> thank nickrud
[05:08] <jebblue> pokesmot: my wife is early 40s and i got her onto ubuntu - she likes it - i had to replace her Money - used GnuCash - for a more reluctant person try KDE i think it is slightly only slightly more friendly than Gnome
[05:08] <pokesmot> somebody could do a study to prove that people become so acclimated to adversity that they shy from simplicity.
[05:08] <timsom> nickrud :how long have you use ubunt
[05:09] <nickrud> timsom: since shortly after it's first release; debian for a few years before that
[05:09] <jebblue> pokesmot: u have a good point my wife is pretty open minded
[05:09] <untz> How can I change my computer's name on Ubuntu?
[05:10] <timsom> have you learn other linux like fc before
[05:10] <untz> I want to name it something else.
[05:10] <scguy318> untz: System -> Administration -> Network I think
[05:10] <untz> thanks scguy318
[05:11] <nickrud> timsom: yes, I used a couple others for the first year while I was learning about linux.
[05:11] <untz> that did it!
[05:11] <simplechat> hey, how would i set up my windows partition for rw?
[05:11] <untz> ;)
[05:11] <simplechat> atm i can read from it, but under properties, it it owned by root
[05:11] <Kstrings> pokesmot: Heh, your wives know more then mine.  I replaced her windows box with linux 4 years ago and she still hasent figured it out.
[05:11] <pavan> big problem upgrading to gutsy 7.10.. please help?

[05:11] <simplechat> yeah, i'm having a few problems using that
[05:11] <simplechat> mainly in that the link its pointing two own't open here
[05:11] <pokesmot> i set up a redhat system back in the late nineties, that was pimp.
[05:11] <scguy318> simplechat: lemme find you another then
[05:11] <timsom> nickrud:do you know how to install two linux in the same computer
[05:11] <pokesmot> when redhat was 'free'
[05:12] <simplechat> thanks :)
[05:12] <Jimmi_jones> Having trouble getting Cisco VPN client to recognize any but sample.pcf, anyone able to help?
[05:12] <scguy318> pokesmot: is not RH free now, or am I missing something?
[05:12] <scguy318> simplechat: that link works for me, whats the issue?
[05:12] <nickrud> timsom: sure. Just have a spare partition, and point the other linux at it. I had redhat, debian, mandrake, and several linux from scratches all booting
[05:12] <pokesmot> scguy, dont think so, fedora is, however
[05:12] <zcat[1] > RH is commercial and full of non-free packages
[05:12] <simplechat> the link that it links to
[05:12] <Cryoniq> pokesmot: yeah.. red hat was a period in ones life.. I really hope ubuntu wont go the same way in future like Red hat did. Red hat feel.. distant today..
[05:13] <arclight4507> Is there anyone here who wouldn't mind helping me,  a newbie,  get Ubuntu installed on an old Dell PowerEdge4300 server?
[05:13] <simplechat> the one with bug in its name, that won't show here
[05:13] <simplechat_ubunt> hey, this is my ubuntu box

[05:14] <scguy318> zcat[1] : ah, that,
[05:14] <pokesmot> cyronik, it'll be alright, another free distro will just pick up where ubuntu leaves off, if that becomes the case
[05:14] <timsom> nickrud: I have try to install but fall the grub have replace the one that install first
[05:14] <zcat[1] > arclight4507: easy suggestion if you have odd hardware. Take the drive out, put it in a standard PC and install there. Usually when you put the drive back in the server it works like a champ..
[05:14] <arclight4507> I'm having some trouble
[05:14] <crazy6> why doesn't Xubnutu load on my system?

[05:14] <nonewmsgs> what do i have to do in order to do a reinstall
[05:14] <arclight4507> Problem is the server runs scsi drives
[05:14] <arclight4507> I don't have a scsi controler on my other pc
[05:14] <zcat[1] > ahh, OK.. so does it boot the install CD ok?
[05:15] <nickrud> timsom: A way to do that is to tell the new install not to install grub. Then, when it's done boot back up into ubuntu and edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to boot the other install
[05:15] <Forager> how can I force a release and renew of DHCP in version 7.04?
[05:15] <nonewmsgs> like if i install ubunut over itself will it be OK with not screwing with /hom
[05:15] <arclight4507> It briings up the menu, but fails on the install
[05:15] <scguy318> Forager: sudo ifdown eth0, then sudo ifup eth0

[05:15] <nonewmsgs> forger right click on the network thing and select the network you are on
[05:15] <zcat[1] > arclight4507: what error?
[05:15] <nonewmsgs> and it does it automatically
[05:15] <nickrud> nonewmsgs: if you don't have a separate home partition, back it up and reinstall, make a home partition, and restore it. From then on you'll be ok
[05:16] <arclight4507> just a sec I will go look
[05:16] <timsom> nickrud:oh my god ,i do it with installing the new grub,thank you nickrud,i try it later
[05:16] <robert_> is there any reason the heimdal package in feisty would remove dovecot-pop3d?

[05:17] <cdm10> How do I find what's different about 2 folders? Some files in a file copy operation failed, and I need to see which ones.
[05:17] <timsom> nickrud:may i ask you which country are you from,i am a chinese boy just fininsh my study from university
[05:17] <scguy318> Cryoniq: typically hxx is ATA and sxx is SATA, though these days the distinction is blurred
[05:17] <zcat[1] > arclight4507: ok, not the problem I was expecting. Probably the best option is google that error and see if there's any help.
[05:17] <alexbobp> In Ubuntu, grep -P gives me "grep: The -P option is not supported".  Can that be fixed?
[05:17] <cdm10> How do I find what's different about 2 folders? Some files in a file copy operation failed, and I need to see which ones. (If this is a repeat, sorry, I seem to have had some network issues)

[05:18] <Jimmi_jones> Having trouble getting Cisco VPN client to recognize any but sample.pcf, anyone able to help?
[05:18] <Forager> scguy318: response to ifdown is, "RTNETLINK answers No such Process"
[05:18] <crazy6> so xubuntu loads just to the point where it recognizes my SCSI devices / USB devices
[05:18] <crazy6> and that's it
[05:18] <crazy6> it just hangs after that
[05:18] <simplechat> how would i remount my ntfs volume?
[05:18] <zcat[1] > arclight4507: our issue was with a scsi driver
[05:18] <simplechat> ?
[05:18] <scguy318> Forager: whats the name of the interface of your networking device?
[05:18] <arclight4507> okay, thanks zcat
[05:18] <scguy318> Forager: just stick that in for eth0, i assumed that was your interface name
[05:18] <Cryoniq> scguy318: ah.. that makes sense.. the 2 disks are actually ATA disks, but I seen in several places and docs referers to sata etc around the topic.. confusing..
[05:18] <Forager> scguy 318 eth0
[05:19] <arclight4507> I think my issue is also a scsi driver
[05:19] <Forager> scguy318: What's a pid file?
[05:19] <scguy318> Forager: not sure about the file part but PID = Process ID
[05:19] <Jimmi_jones> Does anyone know of a good irc channel to get answers for Cisco VPN clients under Ubuntu?

[05:19] <timsom> nickrud:oh that is a good place ,what is your job now ,work with Linux?
[05:19] <scguy318> robert_: what package was it? i dont see a heimdal package
[05:20] <scguy318> robert_: just packages like heimdal-clients, etc.
[05:20] <robert_> lemme look
[05:20] <Cryoniq> I think sometimes programs use a PID file while is open or keep track of things..
[05:20] <simplechat> i can't mount the ntfs drive until i install winodws :(
[05:20] <nickrud> timsom: no, it's a windows shop but I use my linux laptop to do most of my work.
[05:20] <robert_> ohh
[05:20] <robert_> heimdal-servers
[05:20] <Cryoniq> usualy they are put under /temp
[05:21] <scguy318> robert_: a cursory look shows no conflicts to the dove package, have you tried installing that manually?
[05:21] <scguy318> Cryoniq: lock files?
[05:21] <alecwh> While trying to compile gedit 2.20.0, I put in the command "sudo make", and I get this: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop. What's wrong?
[05:21] <Shadow_X> is there a way to link a directory in ubuntu to a remote ftp server account? i.e. that everytime the folder is opened/modified, it syncs the ftp server?
[05:21] <nickrud> Cryoniq: debian's designated place is /var/run
[05:22] <scguy318> alecwh: did you ./configure first?
[05:22] <alecwh> scguy318, yes.
[05:22] <scguy318> alecwh: were there any errors?
[05:22] <Flannel> alecwh: you don't need to sudo make anyway.  just make install.
[05:22] <alecwh> yes scguy318: configure: error: Enchant library not found or too old. Use --disable-spell to build without spell plugin.
[05:22] <robert_> Conflicts: telnetd, ... pop3-server
[05:23] <Cryoniq> nickrud: ah =) I saw and deleted such pid files under different locations during slackware early years. Ubuntu is quite new to me since 6.04 or so :)
[05:23] <timsom> nickrud:what time do you in this place ,if i have any problem about linux,i could ask you to deal with it ,or do you have a ICQ
[05:23] <Kstrings> alecwh:  You building this on an ubuntu system?
[05:23] <alecwh> Kstrings: Yes, Fiesty.
[05:23] <nickrud> timsom: I'm in and out here, but there's people who know much more than I do that hang out here all the time.
[05:23] <scguy318> alecwh: sudo apt-get install libenchant-dev to rectify that
[05:23] <Jewelthief> Hi all, my wireless isn't working after an ubuntu upgrade.  At the moment I'm trying to add some firmware into my lib\firmware file, but I'm getting an error stating that I don't have authorization to do this.  In my user accounts area though, it says that I have administrator access.
[05:23] <scguy318> alecwh: if ./configure fails, no makefiles are made, but I think someone said that you could just simply make install?
[05:24] <scguy318> Jewelthief: sudo
[05:24] <Kstrings> alecwh:  Try using the pbuild system
[05:24] <Jewelthief> scguy318: I've tried a sudo command, it gives me a different error.
[05:24] <nickrud> Cryoniq: policy is a great thing. Once you see how an app uses the file system, or install methods, etc you can pretty much know what any other similar app will do. No seat of the pants package building here ;)
[05:24] <alecwh> scguy318: I did that, it downloaded and installed, but I get the same error for the Enchant library.
[05:24] <alecwh> Kstrings: How?
[05:24] <argh2d2> wuzzup pokesmot
[05:24] <alecwh> scguy318: After typing ./configure

[05:24] <wastrel> pokemon
[05:25] <timsom> nickrud:can you make me to know the people who hang out here all the time.there are many problem that i can't deal with it
[05:25] <pokesmot> nah mugch playa
[05:25] <scguy318> alecwh: mm, have you taken up the suggestion of another user to simply make install?
[05:25] <alecwh> Yes, it doesn't find the make file.
[05:25] <argh2d2> word
[05:25] <scguy318> alecwh: mm
[05:25] <nickrud> timsom: it's not really good ethics to point at people, they answer when they can. <looks at scguy318 >
[05:25] <Forager> this is odd... In version 7.04 (Fisty, right?) when I rclick the network icon in the upper panel and select connection information all the info except the device, Speed, driver and hardware address are all zeros.

[05:30] <scguy318> spazz: make sure to backup your xorg.conf, so you can restore should X server fail to restart
[05:31] <Forager> why do I have an eth0 and an eth0:avah?
[05:31] <scguy318> Forager: eth0:avah is zeroconf interface for networks that have such machines connected
[05:31] <spazz> What driver should i try?
[05:31] <Cryoniq> Example: I make a script or a program that does something. Like calculate the value of Pi. That calculation is a process, so I have the program make a Pid file with the Process ID number of that process. While the script does other things, I can have other parts check if a process for calculating Pi already is in motion so it doesn't do that a second time, or another process should wait for it, or other reasons (one could use varia
[05:31] <Cryoniq> bles for that as well).
[05:31] <scguy318> spazz: the default that's selected
[05:31] <Cryoniq> oops.. became quite long.. my bad.
[05:31] <spazz> ok, i'll go for it

[05:32] <schnoonix> hello i am about to install ubuntu after having windows XP. What i did with windows xp was created a partioned drive and formatted it, but left it for linux. Am i not able to do that ?
[05:32] <Jewelthief> it seems like no matter how I'm trying to get the firmware into my lib\firmware file, i get an error.  I'm not even sure that doing this will fix the lack of wlan0 in my system.
[05:33] <scguy318> Jewelthief: what's the upgrade that you performed?
[05:33] <scguy318> Jewelthief: and what's the error?
[05:33] <nickrud> schnoonix: that was a perfectly fine thing to do, in fact it'll make it easy.
[05:33] <Jewelthief> scguy318: thats a great question, i have no idea...  I havent used ubuntu in a while.  I just opened update manager when i got online again.
[05:34] <schnoonix> ok how do i do it then, just chose manual in the partition option of the install ?
[05:34] <Jewelthief> scguy318: extraction not performed you do not have the right permissions to access the archives in the folder...
[05:34] <scguy318> schnoonix: yes
[05:34] <nickrud> schnoonix: yes
[05:34] <scguy318> Jewelthief: what app you using? you have to start it via gksudo/sudo
[05:35] <schnoonix> by the look of it, it looks like it didnt pick up my SATA drive :\
[05:35] <Jimmi_jones> anyone offer any help with vpnc?
[05:35] <schnoonix> its only showing my 160gb+40gb IDE drives, when my SATA drive is the one with the main space
[05:35] <Jewelthief> scguy318: I've been following a tutorial that advised using "sudo"
[05:35] <wastrel> sudo
[05:35] <Kstrings> Is there a Ubuntu 7.10 Beta specific channel?
[05:36] <nickrud> schnoonix: the alternate install cd? The live cd is sometimes flaky about stuff

[05:36] <ramza3> ok, this is crazy; over the last week or so my connection on my fiesty machine has been dropping and I cant use it so I have to reboot; I have another ubuntu machine on the same network and has has been running strong for 45 days;  anybody seen this?
[05:36] <schnoonix> actually i think i have an idea how i need to do it. Ill attempt it later. When i installed windows i actually needed the IDE drives disconnected or it wasnt reading the SATA as primary, then when installed i needed to connect it back. It may be the same for ubuntu
[05:36] <Jewelthief> scguy318: I've been trying to use this page:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=26623

[05:38] <Jewelthief> Jimmi_jones: sorry J, I dont have any experience with that.
[05:38] <ramza3> pavel: it is strange; if I disconnect my router it will say your connection is lost. With this issue, the network "hangs" and I cant get to the other machines or internet but it doesnt say "network lost"
[05:39] <pavel> jimmi_jones is that a vm?

[05:41] <ramza3> pavel, yea like right now it is working
[05:41] <Jimmi_jones> pavel: well, I installed the Cisco client under ubuntu but can't get it to run anything other then the sample pcf file. I have a pcf provided by my employer for the windows cisco vpn client, I feel like I should be able to make this work somehow.
[05:41] <crazy6> scguy318: this might be a super-special version, as it is on PS3
[05:41] <pavel> ramza3 and at random, the internet shuts down?
[05:42] <Jewelthief> scguy318: i dont think my card's trying to associate because when i do an iwconfig, it just says no wireless extensions.

[05:42] <kevinO> how much space is needed to install Ubuntu?

[05:46] <ramza3> pavel, it could be the physical cable?
[05:46] <whiskeytango> ...
[05:46] <Jewelthief> scguy318: ah, how?
[05:46] <Jimmi_jones> pavel: in terminal typing "vpnclient connect WRV1" gives me the error message, but "vpnclient connect sample" works
[05:46] <scguy318> Jewelthief: well, you copied the old link post
[05:46] <scguy318> Jewelthief: instead of the error message you wanted to show me :)
[05:46] <whiskeytango> If i have a 6200 nvidia SE chipset that should be supported right?  even if my PCIE card isnt?
[05:46] <pavel> ramza3, well unlikely but possible, is the cable ever touched?
[05:46] <scguy318> whiskeytango: ?
[05:46] <crazy6> scguy318: ack, it's a custom kernel, I guess I better get this figured out before I reboot
[05:47] <whiskeytango> So if i switched my monitor to that i should be able to upgrade my drivers, yah?
[05:47] <Jimmi_jones> pavel: I copied WRV1 over from the windows box, it is the pcf that the Cisco client over there uses
[05:47] <Jewelthief> scguy318: i got an error that said bad line.
[05:47] <ramza3> pavel, not touched, except when I just recently tried to make sure it was installed correctly
[05:47] <Jewelthief> i typed in : sudo modprobe ipw2200
[05:47] <scguy318> Jewelthief: can you show the exact error?
[05:47] <whiskeytango> if i dont come back its because this didnt work and i threw my monitor out the window.
[05:47] <pavel> jimmi_jones well should wrv1 be registered with the vpn?
[05:47] <Jewelthief> i'll try..
[05:48] <XsteelWolf> does linux adds up partition into 1 ,unlike windows? let's say 250gb x2 , df-H 500gb total?
[05:48] <Jewelthief> scguy318: WARNING: /etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200 line 2: ignoring bad line starting with 'Reply'
[05:48] <pavel> jimmi_jones, well what could happen is that like the cable is cut somewhere and it has a connection at angles
[05:48] <scguy318> Jewelthief: oh, very interesting!
[05:48] <pavel> jimmi_jones, wrong person
[05:48] <scguy318> Jewelthief: can you please pastebin the contents of cat /etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200
[05:48] <Jewelthief> scguy318: yep
[05:48] <scguy318> !pastebin | Jewelthief
[05:48] <ubotu> Jewelthief: 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)
[05:48] <n3tfury> hi everyone :)
[05:48] <Jewelthief> yes...
[05:48] <Jimmi_jones> pavel: np, could you elaborate a little on your question about registered with vpn?
[05:48] <pavel> ramza3: well the cable could be cut and only get a connection at angles, but i think you need to tinker wit your settings
[05:48] <ramza3> pavel: but why would rebooting fix it.  Another strnage thing, that is why I think it is a software issue
[05:49] <Forager> sorry scguy318...  DCHPDISCOVERY is looking to 255.255.255.255
[05:49] <t3318> exit
[05:49] <t3318> :|
[05:49] <scguy318> Forager: yeah, I believe thats DHCP implementation thing, though I could totally be off-base
[05:50] <Forager> scguy318: My router's subnet is 255.255.255.0
[05:50] <pavel> jimmi_jones: well the way i understand this, based off of how the internet works, if your trying to connect to anything, ur box has to know where to go, and maybe the vpn doesnt understand this 'WRV1'
[05:50] <scguy318> Forager: which is fine
[05:50] <scguy318> Forager: its just a broadcast
[05:50] <t3318> how can i change nick in irssi :(
[05:50] <tonyyarusso> t3318: /nick new_nick
[05:50] <pavel> ramza3: when you installed your router, did u configure it in anyway
[05:50] <t3318> woa
[05:50] <Forager> but my fisty isn't picking up it's dhcp assigned address.
[05:50] <dongthao> thanks tony much :D
[05:51] <Jewelthief> scguy318: so do i just copy the url up at the top of the pastebin page so you can see what's there?
[05:51] <scguy318> Jewelthief: yes please
[05:51] <XsteelWolf> does linux adds up partition into 1 ,unlike windows? let's say 250gb x2 , df-H 500gb total?
[05:51] <ramza3> pavel: I think you are going down the wrong direction.  I have had the router and machine for years and doing various upgrades; only recently I have had this issue, unless the router is just old
[05:51] <Jewelthief> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[05:51] <Jewelthief> see if that works.
[05:51] <Jimmi_jones> pavel: oh, o.k. well running the command "vpnclient connect WRV1" is telling the client to run using the configuration in the pcf file WRV1, that file has the ip address of the listening Cisco appliance.
[05:51] <bulmer> Forager: what are you trying to do?
[05:51] <Yoric1> XsteelWolf: What do you mean?
[05:51] <whiskeytango> Can someone explain to me why my chipset no longer works?
[05:51] <XsteelWolf> as in hdd mapping
[05:51] <scguy318> Jewelthief: oh, no, the direct link to your specific paste
[05:51] <Forager> bulmer: I'm trying to access the internet.
[05:51] <Jewelthief> whiskeytango: did you just do an upgrade?
[05:52] <bulmer> Forager: you are now are you not?
[05:52] <ramza3> pavel, but guess what; if I leave my irc on; it will probably stay active because of the ongoing network activity
[05:52] <Forager> Bulmer: Not.  I'm in IRC using my winxp laptop.
[05:52] <mtx1> i am setting up an ftp and for some when i type in this sudo useradd userftp -p your_password -d /home/FTP-shared -s /bin/false   it adds but when i set it to change the password of the user it says that it isnt a user its a group? how do i add a user?
[05:52] <whiskeytango> No, my 8500 gt isnt supported and the workaround doesnt work.  So i trade the monitor off to my chipset monitor port, but it doesnt even give me a screen.
[05:52] <Jewelthief> scguy318: lol, here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38982/
[05:52] <whiskeytango> tells me to check the cable.
[05:52] <scguy318> Jewelthief: ty :)
[05:52] <Jewelthief> *shakes head*
[05:52] <pavel> jimmi_jones it might night know to look there or be alllowed to read it, first of try that command with 'sudo' in front of that command, also check if 'man vpnclient' gives you anything
[05:52] <mtx1> have tried useradd and adduser and still get same error when trying to change password
[05:52] <bulmer> Forager okay, now can you elaborate on your setup? tell me wha tyou have ? whats connected to what..
[05:53] <Yoric1> XsteelWolf: So you mean what?...
[05:53] <Wooderson> how do i connect to an irc server?
[05:53] <whiskeytango> Youre on an IRC server.
[05:53] <skx> Does anyone know how to convert to .iso from (.ccd, .img, .sub) format under linux)
[05:53] <XsteelWolf> mapping
[05:53] <Wooderson> a different one
[05:53] <Wooderson> i wanna connect to swift irc
[05:53] <XsteelWolf> 2 x 250gb becomes 1 500gb hdd partition
[05:53] <scguy318> Jewelthief: oh, I think I said to pastebin the contents of the command cat /etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200
[05:53] <scguy318> Jewelthief: sorry for confusion
[05:53] <bulmer> Jimmi_jones: you can strace your vpnclient and see which files and libraries it uses
[05:53] <whiskeytango> type /connect then the address
[05:54] <pavel> ramza3: have u checked your network settings?
[05:54] <Wooderson> Looking up zeus.au.oc.SwiftIRC.net  ..
[05:54] <Wooderson>  Unknown host. Maybe you misspelled i
[05:54] <crazy6> scguy318: hrm, this package seems to want libc6 2.6 ... what to do?
[05:54] <Forager> bulmer:  Ubunto Box has a Linksys Instant gigabit card, (Works great in WinXP) wired to a Linksys WRTP54G voice router.
[05:54] <Wooderson> what am i doing wrong
[05:54] <scguy318> crazy6: which package?
[05:54] <furenku_> after installing the nvidia drivers, i can no longer load the realtime kernel, how can i fix this?
[05:54] <skx> Wooderson: double check the name of the server you're trying to connec to
[05:54] <crazy6> scguy318: this custom kernel (patched with ps3 wifi driver)
[05:54] <bulmer> Forager: okay, your XP is dual booting with linux?
[05:55] <ramza3> pavel, only thing really selected is dhcp and wired.  is there something else
[05:55] <whiskeytango> Maybe the server address is incorrect.
[05:55] <bulmer> Forager: or that ubuntu is another separate machine?
[05:55] <PhenGy> how to use cron  for eggdrop?   in terminal        crontab eggdrop.conf ??
[05:55] <Wooderson>  Connection failed. Error: Connection refused
[05:55] <Yoric1> XsteelWolf: Do you mean RAID?
[05:55] <scguy318> crazy6: dunno :( wish I knew more
[05:55] <scguy318> crazy6: though
[05:55] <crazy6> k Ill just try it
[05:55] <Wooderson> why is it refusing my connection? i dont get it
[05:55] <Wooderson> o i know
[05:55] <scguy318> crazy6: if you can install your fine libc6 packages and they do exist
[05:55] <Forager> Bulmer:  Yeah.  XP is the original OS, Installed Unbutu, dual boot on Grub.

[05:56] <XsteelWolf> no
[05:56] <Wooderson> how do i change the port?
[05:56] <bulmer> Forager: is the router also acting as dHCP server?
[05:56] <scguy318> Jewelthief: okay, this is easy
[05:56] <Wooderson> its trying to connect to 9999 but the port is 6667
[05:56] <scguy318> Jewelthief: in Terminal, do gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200
[05:56] <skx> Wooderson: type /server irc.server.name 6667
[05:56] <EnkriptX> I have a problem. I just burned an ISO copy of Ubuntu. And when i Boot my computer it wont let me Boot from cd. Any ideas?
[05:56] <Wooderson> ok thx
[05:57] <ramza3> pavel, yep
[05:57] <scguy318> Jewelthief: then just remove that Reply With Quote line
[05:57] <Forager> Bulmer: Yes.  Router is DHCP server.  It register Ubuntu box and assigned an IP address.  THe Ubuntu will not take it.
[05:57] <crazy6> scguy318: should I dist-upgrade to gutsy ?
[05:57] <scguy318> Jewelthief: i have no clue how that line ended up in your modprobe file :S
[05:57] <bulmer> EnkriptX: enable it on your bios
[05:57] <scguy318> crazy6: no
[05:57] <scguy318> crazy6: nevar
[05:57] <pavel> ramza3: u said another box runs fine, is it also a linux?
[05:57] <Jewelthief> scguy318: ok, i've done that
[05:57] <scguy318> crazy6: there are release notes for upgrading to Gutsy that tell you how I think
[05:57] <scguy318> Jewelthief: then just do sudo modprobe ipw2200
[05:57] <AnAnt> Hello, how can I configure the joystick in Ubuntu ?
[05:57] <EnkriptX> bulmer, It is. I even went to boot menu and selected it. But it booted to my regular linux =\
[05:57] <the_wizzizard> hello
[05:57] <scguy318> Jewelthief: and check to see if your wireless card works
[05:57] <bulmer> Forager: how did you test this? are you using dhclient?
[05:58] <ramza3> pavel: it is the prev version of ubuntu, I forgot the name
[05:58] <the_wizzizard> what do i do about my mouse freezing up on me?
[05:58] <scguy318> crazy6: unfortunately, i dunno much :(
[05:58] <PhenGy> how to use cron  for eggdrop?   in terminal        crontab eggdrop.conf ??
[05:58] <Jewelthief> scguy318: what is the best way to check, just iwconfig?
[05:58] <bulmer> EnkriptX: it meant it does not recognize that there is a bootable cdrom on the drive
[05:58] <scguy318> Jewelthief: yes, w/e you use for wireless
[05:58] <bulmer> PhenGy: man crontab
[05:58] <pavel> ramza3: think tis edgy, not the point. so the internet blows out after a while without being used?
[05:59] <CyberMad> how to send file to other employee that use ubuntu & windows? i try pidgin - bonjour but it doesn't support send file :( Note: i don't want use chat via internet connection
[05:59] <Forager> bulmer: I have the router pages up on the laptop, so I have the Client table.  In ubuntu I'm in Terminal using ifconfig and Firefox.
[05:59] <EnkriptX> bulmer, but why wouldnt it? it recognized my mepis disk =\ I can reboot and check my bios. But ill probably be back
[05:59] <ramza3> pavel: yep.  strange, normally after a long while, eg a couple of hours
[05:59] <pavel> jimmi_jones have you read: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122402
[05:59] <scguy318> CyberMad: what protocol are you using?
[05:59] <bulmer> Forager: what command you typed in ubuntu to recognize these?
[05:59] <the_wizzizard> how i do fix it so my mouse doesnt freeze up on my computer?
[05:59] <scguy318> CyberMad: and are the two machines hooked up to same network?
[05:59] <crazy6> how do I find what current resolution x is running at?
[06:00] <Jewelthief> scguy318: ok, progress! it's showing up now.  but now i have to configure some stuff.  my lynksis router is set to wpa. and i dont think my wpa supplicant is working anymore.
[06:00] <RoC_MasterMind> an upgrade from 6.06 to 7.04 says I will lose libvolumeid0, python-apport-utils, and humna-gtk-theme....should I be concerned?
[06:00] <pavel> ramza3, well sometimes, what happens is that hardware goes to sleep if not being used. Are u plugging into a pci card or something directly connected to the mother board
[06:00] <bulmer> EnkriptX: maybe it didnt burn properly? you can always mount an iso and see if its okay..bootable, only way I know is to boot of it offcourse
[06:00] <CyberMad> scguy318 that's what i'm asked.. hehe i confuse use what method.. i tried bonjour but it doesn't support send file
[06:00] <Sir_Sid>  hmm do any of you guys know how to compile a source if you hava a configure.ac
[06:00] <RoC_MasterMind> *6.10 to 7.04
[06:00] <CyberMad> scguy318 all machines are in same network
[06:00] <Forager> bulmer: I'm using ifconfig to check addresses and subnet, scguy318 suggested I use sudo ifup and ifdown to release/renew Ip addresses.
[06:00] <ramza3> pavel: I think onboard
[06:00] <CyberMad> scguy318 there are about 50 PCs
[06:01] <skx> Nobody knows how to convert from .img to .iso files?
[06:01] <ramza3> pavel: asus 64 bit system
[06:01] <whiskeytango> how do i move executable to my wine c:  ?
[06:01] <riddlebox> weird, I had to reboot after I installed libdvdcss2 in order to view dvds
[06:01] <pavel> ramza3: well then i really dunno how to help you, did ya checked the forusm?
[06:01] <Jimmi_jones> pavel: no, will do. FYI modding the "sample.pcf" allows it to run and connect to the Cisco appliance, but I now have a bad group password. Will have to get a new one from IT. Thanks for your time.
[06:01] <whiskeytango> when i try to install stuff it tells me that module cannot be found.
[06:01] <skx> whiskeytango: your wine c:
[06:01] <bulmer> Forager: and what happens when you did do a ifdown and ifup? did you verify you have an ip address assigned? did you check /var/log/messages for telltale signs?
[06:01] <scguy318> skx: install AcetoneISO2 from third-party debs, then mount it
[06:01] <skx> thank you, scguy318
[06:02] <scguy318> skx: then use favorite rip app to obtain image
[06:02] <Sir_Sid>  hmm do any of you guys know how to compile a source if you hava a configure.ac
[06:02] <pavel> jimmi_jones np
[06:02] <scguy318> !make | Sir_Sid
[06:02] <ubotu> Sir_Sid: 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!)
[06:02] <PhenGy> Errors in Crontab File,  cant install
[06:02] <scguy318> whiskeytango: wheres the EXE that you wish to run located?
[06:02] <scguy318> whiskeytango: and what is the EXE anyway?
[06:02] <skx> whiskeytango: your wine c: is located at /home/whiskeytango/.wine/drive_c/
[06:02] <scguy318> CyberMad: mmm
[06:02] <scguy318> CyberMad: the lazy way out would be...e-mail :P
[06:02] <bulmer> Sir_Sid: umm look into using autoconf..there is a free book on using these gnu tools
[06:03] <scguy318> CyberMad: i guess a simple SMB share?
[06:03] <Wooderson> how do i set the root password?
[06:03] <Sir_Sid> bulmer: where can I get that book?
[06:03] <CyberMad> scguy318 well, i just want to deploy: chat, send file feature for all employee
[06:03] <Forager> Bulmer: I don't know about /var/log/messages.  IFCONFIG shows an inet6 address (Don't know how to read) but eth0:avah is on 169.254 network.
[06:03] <scguy318> CyberMad: ah, ok
[06:03] <bulmer> Sir_Sid: google for a book called autoconf make
[06:03] <simplechat_ubunt> hey, i'm wondering if i can get ubuntu to share its packages?
[06:03] <gogeta> lol
[06:03] <simplechat_ubunt> ie. one that is fully updated updating one that isn't?
[06:04] <scguy318> CyberMad: i would imagine that setting up an XMPP server could do it
[06:04] <simplechat> ?
[06:04] <gogeta> to what?
[06:04] <scguy318> CyberMad: i know that protocol supports file transfer
[06:04] <bulmer> Forager: if it has 169.254.x.x it didnt get to talk to the dhcp server
[06:04] <Jewelthief> scguy318: thanks a ton!
[06:04] <Sir_Sid> thanks bulmer
[06:04] <scguy318> Jewelthief: np
[06:04] <scguy318> Jewelthief: all good?
[06:04] <bulmer> Sir_Sid i may have the book, hang on..
[06:05] <Wooderson> how do i set my root password?
[06:05] <RoC_MasterMind> an upgrade from 6.10 to 7.04 says I will lose libvolumeid0, python-apport-utils, and human-gtk-theme....should I be concerned?
[06:05] <scguy318> Wooderson: sudo passwd, though why would you want to do this?
[06:05] <simplechat> can i garb the package cache from another computer?
[06:05] <scguy318> !root | Wooderson
[06:05] <Sir_Sid> bulmer: I think i found it
[06:05] <ubotu> Wooderson: 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
[06:05] <Jewelthief> i wont know until i reboot, some of my wireless info's on my xp side. gotta reboot
[06:05] <Wooderson> i just got ubuntu today
[06:05] <Wooderson> havent set anything
[06:05] <Wooderson> lol
[06:05] <gogeta> lol wooderson
[06:05] <CyberMad> scguy318 yes, i already deploy chat server based on XMPP, but the problem is i don't add user nickname one by one on each PCs
[06:05] <gogeta> can guess that root pass al day
[06:05] <Sir_Sid> Wooderson: when you installed ubuntu, it asked you for what you wanted your root password to be
[06:05] <bulmer> Sir_Sid: cool, download it, its a really good book ..for free
[06:05] <jrib> Wooderson: you don't need to set a root password, Ubuntu prefers that you use sudo instead.  See the link from ubotu
[06:05] <Wooderson> it says sorry try again =\
[06:05] <gogeta> untill you relise its sudo
[06:06] <jrib> !root > Wooderson (read the private message from ubotu)
[06:06] <gogeta> lol
[06:06] <CyberMad> scguy318 so there is 50 PC, so i must add 50 x 50 = 250 ;(
[06:06] <Sir_Sid> bulmer: yeah Im lookin throuhg it
[06:06] <Forager> bulmer: That's the direction I was going in.  when I ran ifup, DCHPDISCOVER was broadcasting DHCP requests to the wrong subnet, but I don't know if that's relevant.
[06:06] <CyberMad> scguy318 do you know any plugin for XMPP so can automatically all nickname?
[06:06] <Wooderson> ut o
[06:06] <bulmer> Forager: try man dhclient  to give you info on how to acquire ip address
[06:06] <CyberMad> *so can automatically add all nickname?
[06:07] <scguy318> CyberMad: mm, I'm not sure, though I know Pidgin has a Search for Users feature
[06:07] <gogeta> wooderson dont worry i whnt for suse to ubuntu i asked the same question
[06:07] <crazy6> scguy318: can I install a kenrel package .deb from a rescue shell, or does it rely on reading what modules are currenty loaded in a "proper" bootup?
[06:08] <gogeta> crazy6 i dont see why not
[06:08] <gogeta> but you might brake everything
[06:08] <whiskeytango> So.. to get around the steaminstaller.msi issue i just googled steaminstall.exe ..
[06:08] <gogeta> wine can install a msi package
[06:08] <mocie_girl> ness
[06:09] <whiskeytango> I couldnt get it too, even with msiexec
[06:09] <whiskeytango> kept giving me errors
[06:09] <scguy318> whiskeytango: what errors?
[06:09] <whiskeytango> It acted as if i was asking HOW to install it "Usage..."
[06:10] <Wooderson> it says enter new unix password
[06:10] <Wooderson> that my new root password?
[06:10] <scguy318> Wooderson: yes
[06:10] <gogeta> wooderson your root pass = same as your user pass
[06:10] <jrib> Wooderson: there's no reason to set a root password
[06:10] <scguy318> Wooderson: though I don't see why you need to set one :)
[06:10] <Wooderson> idk either
[06:10] <Wooderson> i usually did before
[06:10] <jrib> Wooderson: then don't do it...
[06:11] <Wooderson> o well
[06:11] <Wooderson> ok
[06:11] <Wooderson> now i need your help again
[06:11] <Wooderson> how the f do i install java
[06:11] <Wooderson> lol
[06:11] <jrib> !java > Wooderson (read the private message from ubotu)
[06:11] <scguy318> Wooderson: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre

[06:14] <whiskeytango> Hey, if i have a PCI express card in my PC is it going to override my chipset so i cant get a signal throught my chipset ?
[06:14] <jbu311> does ubuntu come with python installed? (sorry if this is a newb question)
[06:14] <jrib> jbu311: yes
[06:14] <scguy318> crazy6: like not load up?
[06:14] <pavel> nickrud ty
[06:14] <scguy318> crazy6: well, you dont have to do anything, I guess, the interfaces are initialized but not hooked to anything
[06:14] <jbu311> jrib, thanks
[06:14] <Yoric1> Yeah, most of the programs are Python in Ubuntu's devstuff jbu311
[06:14] <nickrud> whiskeytango: you can tell X to use the on board by specifying the pci id
[06:14] <Wooderson> o u know what i need to install ati video card drivers... can i do that on linux?
[06:14] <jbu311> jrib, do u know how to tell what version of python i have?
[06:14] <jrib> !ati > Wooderson (read the private message from ubotu)

[06:15] <Wooderson> jeez ur on the ball tonight =] 
[06:15] <nickrud> whiskeytango: lspci  will tell you the pci id, replace the one in /etc/X11/org.conf
[06:15] <scguy318> jbu311: random guess, but python -v or python --version?
[06:15] <jrib> jbu311: python --version
[06:15] <jbu311> thanks
[06:15] <keeks> Hi, I need to format my HD to install ubuntu? I have a mac is it possible to do it there?
[06:15] <scguy318> !mac | keeks
[06:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mac - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:15] <scguy318> bah
[06:16] <scguy318> keeks: lemme find a guide
[06:16] <whiskeytango> 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Unknown device 0421 (rev a1)
[06:16] <jrib> keeks: the installer should format the partition
[06:16] <keeks> Where should I look?
[06:17] <keeks> it's the first time using linux, in this case ubuntu
[06:17] <jrib> keeks: it's a wizard type program, you just follow the directions.  It will be obvious
[06:17] <nickrud> whiskeytango: BusID "PCI:2:0:0" then
[06:17] <whiskeytango> nickrud, can you point me towards a walkthrough for this so i dont blow up my PC?
[06:17] <nickrud> whiskeytango: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg will walk you through
[06:18] <nickrud> whiskeytango: worst thing that will happen is X will try to talk to a non-existent card
[06:18] <pavel> nickrud: do you know how i can get the latest version of xserver?
[06:18] <Wooderson> so how long have yall been using linux?
[06:19] <scguy318> Wooderson: since April
[06:19] <nickrud> pavel: install from source. Gutsy won't have it either
[06:19] <xanadu> Will ubuntu 7.10 change too much before the official production release in next month?
[06:19] <Wooderson> and your pretty comfortable with it?
[06:19] <pavel> nickrud: do u know where the source is?
[06:19] <nickrud> pavel: x.org
[06:19] <Wooderson> i used it for like a year then gave up and went to windows =[
[06:19] <jrib> Wooderson: we like to keep #ubuntu just for support, but your welcomed to ask those questions in #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:19] <pavel> nickrud: oh, shoulda guessed
[06:19] <whiskeytango> nicrud, so i want to replace what i have with BusID "PCI:2:0:0" right?
[06:19] <mtx1> i am setting up an ftp and for some when i type in this sudo useradd userftp -p your_password -d /home/FTP-shared -s /bin/false   it adds but when i set it to change the password of the user it says "useradd: group userftp exists - if you want to add this user to that group, use -g."  how do i add a user?
[06:19] <Wooderson> my bad didnt even know i was in a support channel
[06:20] <nickrud> pavel: it's not a walk in the park to compile, and doesn't put things where ubuntu expects them, making it even more difficult
[06:20] <Wooderson> thank you all for your help ill probably be back with more questions :P
[06:20] <pavel> nickrud: well usually compi;ing seems to work for me, dependencies is wher ei get problems
[06:20] <nickrud> pavel: or, at least it didn't when I was compiling it, I don't expect that has changed
[06:21] <gunspoja> gday everyone
[06:21] <rodge> gday
[06:21] <nickrud> pavel: x doesn't have much in the way of dependencies, it provides nearly everything itself. That, at least is easy ;)
[06:21] <rafael__> hello, if the site ubuntu and google dont help me with webcam..  where can i get more information ?
[06:21] <gunspoja> if I do the following command: "xbcomp mirrorboard_alt.xkb $DISPLAY 2>/dev/null", what will that do, and how easy is it to reverse?
[06:21] <pavel> nickrud:o ok, then i dont expect to have any problems, ty!
[06:22] <emeriste> all of a sudden my sound doesn't work

[06:23] <Forager__> Bulmer, It isn't working out...
[06:23] <bulmer> Forager__: whats not working out? what did you do?
[06:24] <Wooderson> back again how do i change directorys to where i downloaded my file
[06:24] <sircharles> how do i mount cds?
[06:24] <gunspoja> sircharles, with 'mnt' command?
[06:24] <scguy318> sircharles: ISOs or actual CDs?
[06:24] <gunspoja> or mount, either
[06:24] <bruenig> sircharles, mount /dev/whatever /mount/point
[06:24] <jrib> Wooderson: where did you download it to?  What are you trying to do?
[06:24] <bruenig> there is no such thing as mnt
[06:24] <sircharles> k thnx
[06:24] <scguy318> Wooderson: cd /path/to/file
[06:24] <bulmer> Wooderson: its like DOS command.. cd  as in change directory
[06:24] <Wooderson> i downloaded an ati driver to the desktop
[06:24] <xerophyte> if i have lvm partition .. how can i find how much disk usage on that parition without mounting it
[06:24] <gunspoja> bruenig, yeah, i just realised
[06:24] <scguy318> Wooderson: or cd relative/path/to/.../to/1337/file
[06:25] <scguy318> *..
[06:25] <whiskeytango> nickrud, if its set to BusID "PCI:2:0:0" do i just change the 2 to a 1 ?
[06:25] <jrib> Wooderson: are you positive you need to do this?  The Restricted Driver Manager should be your first choice
[06:25] <mce01> hello, we have computer pentium III  by #ubuntu, for compatible hardware, what's good specifikasi hardware?
[06:25] <Wooderson> i followed the thingy the bot said
[06:25] <summer_s4> i have a program installed, but i want to know how to include it into the application list
[06:25] <bruenig> scguy318, excellent advice
[06:25] <Wooderson> it said download the driver then do this and that
[06:25] <Forager__> bulmer: I tried (in sudo -i) dhclient -s (Router Address) which returned no DCHPOFFERS THen I repeated the command with the correct subnet mask to no avail.
[06:25] <scguy318> mce01: how much memory do you have?
[06:26] <bulmer> Forager: man dhclient again..you used the wrong option it seems
[06:26] <mce01> memory we have 168mb
[06:26] <scguy318> mce01: mm, pretty low for Ubuntu, I suggest checking out the Damn Small Linux and Puppy Linux distros
[06:26] <scguy318> mce01: Ubuntu may not run very well on your hardware
[06:27] <jrib> Wooderson: that's not what I read there, it recommends Restricted Driver Manager at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI.  Unless you have some card that the page says is not supported?
[06:27] <Wooderson> omg im stupid
[06:27] <nickrud> whiskeytango: you'd set it to the busid of the video card. there should have been two listed in lspci, unless the one on board is disabled in bios
[06:27] <Wooderson> i figured it out lol
[06:27] <Wooderson> u were right restricted driver ftw !
[06:27] <whiskeytango> I didnt disable... And it just listed one.
[06:27] <summer_s4> I have sunbird (mozilla's calender) in a directory, and i want to know how to make it appear in the application/office list
[06:27] <bruenig> summer_s4, write a .desktop file and drop it in /usr/share/applications
[06:28] <Wooderson> ok i gotta restart
[06:28] <Wooderson> cya
[06:28] <mce01> how about to change memory 256m scguy318
[06:28] <whiskeytango> So might my PCI card disable it to prevent device conflicts?
[06:28] <gunspoja> summer_s4, add it to the menu
[06:28] <scguy318> mce01: if you had 256 MBs, then Ubuntu would probably run ok
[06:28] <scguy318> mce01: but the more the better :)
[06:28] <summer_s4> gunspoja: umm... can you elaborate?
[06:28] <bruenig> summer_s4, he means what I said
[06:28] <scguy318> nickrud: apologize for intrusion, but why the messing with Bus ID for vid card?
[06:28] <gunspoja> summer_s4, right-click on the menu and select "edit menus"
[06:28] <summer_s4> bruenig: how do i make a .desktop file?
[06:29] <bruenig> summer_s4, you will see, there are tons of them in /usr/share/applications
[06:29] <mce01> thanx scugy318..  :-)
[06:29] <gunspoja> summer_s4, and then select the menu you want, click "new item" and type in the command
[06:29] <whiskeytango> Im trying to point X towards my chipset instead of my PCIE card
[06:29] <nickrud> scguy318: whiskeytango has two cards, and wants to designate which is used by X
[06:29] <scguy318> nickrud: ah
[06:29] <demon_spork> how do I get something via CVS from sourceforge.net?  I have the address and the module, but I don't know where to go from there.  http://nvclock.cvs.sourceforge.net/nvclock and the module is nvclock
[06:29] <whiskeytango> ok, well im going to go check my BIOS, ill be back in a while i guess.
[06:29] <Poul|Raider> anyone here good at mosml?
[06:29] <nickrud> scguy318: and intrusion it was not, I got lucky this time :)
[06:29] <scguy318> demon_spork: nvclock is in the repos I believe
[06:30] <scguy318> demon_spork: unless you have a need for the latest CVS?
[06:30] <gerath> Dose anyone know if you have a home network with a router and two computers both running at the same time with Linux on them do they fight with Dhcp or ip transhlation or any other problems of that sort
[06:30] <scguy318> gerath: no
[06:30] <scguy318> gerath: the two machines each obtain a separate DHCP lease
[06:30] <summer_s4> can someone tell me (i am embarrassed to ask this) how to get a sunbird icon?
[06:30] <bruenig> summer_s4, there are icons in the directory I am sure
[06:31] <scguy318> gerath: and the router's job of NAT translation should be just fine with >= 1 machines
[06:31] <demon_spork> scguy318, I have a need for the latest, the repo version has no support for the 8 series GPUs
[06:31] <scguy318> demon_spork: ah, ok
[06:31] <Wooderson> ok is there a way to set the port permantly to the irc server so i wont have to keep typing /server ircserver port
[06:31] <gerath> Ok cause I have a desktop and laptop but for some out reason they fight for dhcp lease and yes  it's NAT Pushing out the ip address
[06:31] <lekremyelsew> hey all
[06:31] <demon_spork> Wooderson, using Xchat correct>
[06:31] <scguy318> demon_spork: to checkout a CVS repo, you need to install the cvs package
[06:32] <demon_spork> done
[06:32] <demon_spork> I just need the command to get it
[06:32] <Wooderson> um
[06:32] <Wooderson> yes
[06:32] <lekremyelsew> could someone help me reconfigure my xorg session it got completely jacked up after i did a update
[06:32] <demon_spork> I don't even know where to begin, I have gotten 2 or 3 things from cvs by copying the commands, but I haven't learned it yet
[06:32] <Wooderson> woops
[06:33] <scguy318> demon_spork: basically you are simply doing an anonymous checkout from CVS
[06:33] <lekremyelsew> its just one command right?
[06:33] <demon_spork> Wooderson, in the network list edit freenode
[06:33] <summer_s4> i thank you all for helping me at my most ignorand moments
[06:33] <scguy318> demon_spork: then taking the source and building it
[06:33] <scguy318> demon_spork: so, in your case
[06:33] <scguy318> demon_spork: from this page: http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=21335
[06:33] <demon_spork> scguy318, yeah, but it isn't accepting the "anonymous" user
[06:34] <Wooderson> i dont see edit freenode
[06:34] <scguy318> demon_spork: I checked it out just fine
[06:34] <scguy318> demon_spork: it should be  cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@nvclock.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nvclock co -P nvclock
[06:34] <demon_spork> scguy, ah, I used the wrong path, I use /cvs/nvclock
[06:34] <demon_spork> rather than cvsroot
[06:34] <scguy318> demon_spork: ah, thats probably it :)
[06:34] <gerath> Scguy with two machines on the router with nat is that a issues
[06:35] <scguy318> gerath: no
[06:35] <demon_spork> Wooderson, Add a network called "Freenode" to the list
[06:35] <summer_s4> i thank you all for helping me at my most ignorand moments
[06:35] <scguy318> gerath: thats exactly what NAT is designed to handle
[06:35] <summer_s4> how do i set up heartbeat
[06:35] <scguy318> gerath: summer_s4 np
[06:35] <scguy318> oops
[06:35] <scguy318> er, yeah
[06:35] <Wooderson> o lol i see the network free node now
[06:35] <mtx1> i am setting up an ftp and for some when i type in this sudo useradd userftp -p your_password -d /home/FTP-shared -s /bin/false   it adds but when i set it to change the password of the user it says "useradd: group userftp exists - if you want to add this user to that group, use -g."  how do i add a user?
[06:36] <Wooderson> im guessing put the servers in there?
[06:36] <scguy318> mtx1: wouldn't it be liek sudo useradd <username> -g userftp ...?
[06:36] <demon_spork> Wooderson, then edit the server to say "irc.freenode.net"
[06:36] <scguy318> mtx1: could be off-base tho
[06:36] <juan_ac> Hello! I'm trying to connect my macbook to my desktop (ubuntu 7.04) via ethernet card. Can't get it to work. I have two ethernet cards in my desktop one connected to a DSL modem the other is th one to which i want to connect de macbook. THe fjrst one is up and running, the second one doesn't seem to be well configured. It doesn0t show on System /Administration/Network. I think maybe theproblem is both cards have the same rhine controller but i'm not sure..
[06:36] <juan_ac> ....
[06:36] <Wooderson> it does say freenode.net
[06:37] <demon_spork> "irc.freenode.net"
[06:37] <Wooderson> yea it says that
[06:37] <summer_s4> I am attempting to install heartbeat (very "common" cluster software) but it keeps saying that libc6 isn't satisfiable.  I had attempted to re-install it using synaptic, but it won't work.
[06:37] <Marbug> Is there any way to configure the desktop effects that are in ubuntu, like beryl ?
[06:37] <nickrud> juan_ac: silly question maybe, but are you using a crossover cable?
[06:37] <demon_spork> Wooderson, so have you ever tried connecting  to it from this menu?
[06:37] <Wooderson> ya it default at port 9999
[06:37] <juan_ac> nickrud: not silly! Yes I am
[06:37] <Wooderson> but the port it needs to be is 6667
[06:38] <lastent> hi, I'm having a problem, everytime I turn my computer on I have to reinstall the driver for my Nvidia GeForce Go 7400 because the graphic server falls
[06:38] <summer_s4> juan_ac: you have to configure the eth0 and eth1 to accept and send communications.
[06:38] <demon_spork> Wooderson, so edit the server and change it to "irc.freenode.net/6667"
[06:39] <Wooderson> ahh ok
[06:39] <Forager__> bulmer: What is gconfd?
[06:40] <juan_ac> summer_s4: yeah, eth0 is configured (is the one I'm using rght now to connect to the internet), eth1 is not....  I don't really know how to do it
[06:40] <summer_s4> lastent:  try upgrading your gnome verson to 2.18.3.  You can get the gnome upgrade package at gnomes website with a simple bit of hunt-n-pecking.

[06:50] <bruenig> manicnerd, are you switching between kernels
[06:50] <bruenig> !ot | summer_s4
[06:50] <ryan__> oos wrong channel
[06:50] <ubotu> summer_s4: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:50] <manicnerd> bruenig: nope
[06:50] <lastent> summer_s4, Im in gnome,org

[06:50] <summer_s4> lastent: click gnome 2.20 releaced
[06:50] <lastent> ok
[06:50] <demon_spork> scguy318, lol, the reason I need nvclock is so that I can force the fan to keep going.  The bearings are going out and it keeps stopping at the lower settings, a big no no for an 8800GTS, the temp spikes to over 80 within the first 30 seconds without a fan
[06:50] <summer_s4> juan_ac: no.  The modem dosn't want to appear in this thing
[06:50] <[Nige] > Can someone tell me how to identify the parrellel port driver in ubuntu?
[06:50] <bulmer> Forager__: once you have ubuntu up, just type dhclient
[06:51] <juan_ac> summer_s4: ok
[06:51] <Forager__> bulmer:  ifconfig doesn't show me an IP address.  Firefox will not rez a server.
[06:51] <scguy318> demon_spork: have you successfully checked it out?
[06:51] <summer_s4> lastent: on the right hand side, you should see installing gnome, click it

[06:51] <summer_s4> juan_ac: click configure
[06:51] <bulmer> [Nige] : lshw
[06:51] <juan_ac> summer_s4: yep
[06:51] <[Nige] > bulmer, I wil give it ago, i didnt think it told me the driver name though
[06:51] <bulmer> Forager__: once you have ubuntu up, just type dhclient
[06:51] <summer_s4> juan_ac: what does it say?
[06:52] <dougie> dang it....sound is still not working...
[06:52] <Forager__> bulmer:  I have 2 computers running side by side.  One is a desktop running ubuntu and the other is a laptop running xp.
[06:52] <summer_s4> lastent: are you there?
[06:52] <lastent> summer_s4, yes Im
[06:52] <juan_ac> summer_s4: Enable this connection, telephone, account... seems like the modem interface
[06:52] <Forager__> dhclient says no dhcpoffers, no leases in persistent database.
[06:52] <bulmer> Forager__: okay, the ubuntu is not connecting?
[06:52] <Forager__> correct.
[06:53] <j1> anyone know how to get open gl going on old toshiba laptops?
[06:53] <bulmer> Forager__: pastebin the result of  ip a
[06:53] <summer_s4> juan_ac:  apperantly, the eth0 device is not seen by your prober.  Apperently, you have to have some exotic software.  Sorry.  I did try to do this in a similar setup before but failed miseribly.
[06:53] <Forager__> bulmer:  I don't understand the instruction.
[06:53] <summer_s4> lastent: click the blue GARNOME
[06:54] <lastent> summer_s4, ok i did it
[06:54] <summer_s4> lastent: then on your screen, you should see garnome 2.20.x
[06:54] <summer_s4> lastent: click it
[06:55] <bulmer> Forager__:  type ip a on a terminal and paste the result to pastebin
[06:55] <juan_ac> summer_s4: THanks anyway!!!!! Do you know where can I find some help, I've been trying to do this for months....
[06:55] <lastent> summer_s4, ok
[06:55] <summer_s4> lastent: click garnome-2.20.0.tar.gz
[06:55] <bulmer> juan_ac: which brand of nic card you have  for the 2nd interface?
[06:55] <zetheroo> I am trying to install the latest version of WINE in Ubuntu Feisty.... I am following the How-to form the winehq site.... but I get errors when doing sudo apt-get update    http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38985/
[06:56] <robert_> demon_spork, hum?
[06:56] <juan_ac> bulmer: d link
[06:56] <summer_s4> lastent:  it is reccommended that at this point, you transfer the truely personal data to a different user.
[06:56] <juan_ac> bulmer: DFE 520 TX
[06:56] <demon_spork> scguy318, yes, and it is helping me get the last ounce out of my GPU fan as we speak.  It wouldn't be that hard to write a simple script that would periodically check the GPU temp and set the Duty Cycle higher when the GPU temp gets too high
[06:56] <summer_s4> lastent: but gnome 2.20 is well tested, and i have had no problomes with it (yet, i never tested it yet)
[06:56] <lastent> summer_s4, uhm why?
[06:56] <bulmer> juan_ac: is the interface recognized in dmesg? or /var/log/messages have entries for it during boot?
[06:57] <zetheroo> anyone?
[06:57] <robert_> oh
[06:57] <scguy318> zetheroo: have you tried running that sudo apt-get update?
[06:57] <scguy318> zetheroo: and you did follow the instructions to the T?
[06:57] <summer_s4> lastent: so in case something goes wrong, you can go back and restore everything.  Make sure to give it every privilage.
[06:57] <rafael__> hello

[06:57] <summer_s4> lastent: then leave it alone.  If it fails, it will not affect anything.
[06:57] <zetheroo> scguy318: I followed this How-to http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[06:57] <apabae> hello, i'm a newbie with ubuntu (and linux) and have some question...
[06:57] <lastent> summer_s4, ok downloaded it
[06:57] <robert_> demon_spork, the part about where I exor... yeah, that :P
[06:58] <juan_ac> bulmer: http://pastebin.ca/719153 that's my dmesg output
[06:58] <summer_s4> lastent: i assume that you are using firefx
[06:58] <sistom> how do I restart sshd?
[06:58] <j1> zethero give it sudo apt-get update -f (fix missing)
[06:58] <Forager__> Bulmer...  I'll have to manually trqanscribe it... THe computer running ubunto doesn't have a working network connection.
[06:58] <zetheroo> scguy318: I added the repo key.... I added the source.... I did sudo apt-get update.... and there I get the error
[06:58] <lastent> summer_s4, you're asumming well
[06:58] <jrib> sistom: sudo invoke-rc.d ssh restart
[06:59] <bulmer> Forager__: is the ubuntu pc close by you?
[06:59] <Forager__> right here.
[06:59] <summer_s4> lastent: well... i don't know.  for anything, you could be using programs that came from martians
[06:59] <bulmer> juan_ac: look it up, so you can learn
[07:00] <scguy318> zetheroo: can you pastebin the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list and the GPG key which I will give you the path in a moment
[07:00] <summer_s4> lastent:  i assume that your download is at least 9/10 done by now
[07:00] <lastent> summer_s4, i alredy downloaded it
[07:00] <Forager__> it says the inet address is 169.254.4.190/16
[07:00] <summer_s4> lastent: ok.  Double click garnome-2.20.0.tar.gz
[07:00] <juan_ac> bulmer: yeah i don't know what to look for...what should i see? I'm sorry I'm kind of new
[07:01] <lastent> summer_s4, already extracted it
[07:01] <summer_s4> lastent: ok...
[07:01] <bulmer> juan_ac: your hint is  eth
[07:01] <zetheroo> scguy318: sources.list http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38986/
[07:01] <sistom> thanks jrib
[07:01] <summer_s4> lastent: ok...  my laptop is sluggish today
[07:01] <juan_ac> bulmer: ok
[07:01] <bulmer> Forager__: okay..do this..  sudo  ifdown eth0  am assuming that interface is eth0
[07:02] <sistom> how do I find out what my computers ip address is in my local network?
[07:02] <bulmer> then ifup eth0
[07:02] <sistom> 10.0.0.x
[07:02] <summer_s4> lastent: the next section will take a while
[07:02] <whiskeytango> Ok, nickrud, that didnt work, its not in my BIOS.  Which is why its not showing up in my lspci
[07:02] <summer_s4> lastent: open up synaptic
[07:02] <bulmer> sistom: visit each one and type ifconfig is they are linux based
[07:02] <lastent> ok
[07:03] <sandrot> anyone have a copy buffer thingy to recommend?
[07:03] <whiskeytango> So, that would mean its borked and ill just wait till the 18th of october.
[07:03] <bulmer> juan_ac: noticed you dont have eth1 up? only eth0?
[07:03] <nickrud> whiskeytango: if it won't show in bios, I wouldn't expect it to be in lspci, and if not in lspci, X certainly won't see it.
[07:03] <summer_s4> search for build-essential
[07:03] <sandrot> erm, something which hangs out on the desktop and remembers all of your copy paste stuff
[07:03] <scguy318> zetheroo: did you add the Wine BudgetDedicated repos? i dont see them in sources.list
[07:03] <lastent> summer_s4, already installed
[07:03] <bulmer> Forager__: then type   dhclient
[07:03] <Red_Tide> hey I am thinking of switching my dad over to Ubuntu my one worry is digital cameras are there any significant hiccups?
[07:03] <summer_s4> lastent: well just set it to re-install
[07:03] <Wooderson> i have another question lol.... how do i install gmail notifyer ?
[07:03] <whiskeytango> Its not a big enough deal for me to spend more time that I already have, i know a fix is coming out for the 8500 i have, i was just hoping for a quick method of playing css and two worlds.
[07:04] <nickrud> whiskeytango: You need to figure out why it's not in bios. Nearly every bios I've seen allows you to turn it on and off
[07:04] <Forager__> Bulmer...done...  DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67... NoDHCPOFFERS recieved.
[07:04] <lastent> ok
[07:04] <lastent> summer_s4, ok
[07:04] <summer_s4> lastent: you never know if it is faulty
[07:04] <juan_ac> bulmer: yes! Only eth0, no eth1....
[07:04] <nickrud> whiskeytango: ah, well, be the fox :)
[07:04] <bulmer> Red_Tide: you camera has removable mem card ? plug it in to your card reader attached to your pc
[07:04] <jrib> Red_Tide: if it works as a UMS, there should be no issues.  Just plug it in and it gets mounted like a usb key.  Then you're asked if you want to import photos
[07:04] <summer_s4> lastent: then do the same for flex and bison (2 seperate things)
[07:04] <juan_ac> bulmer: yes! Only eth0 only the one i'm using right now.... the other doesn't seem ti appear
[07:04] <whiskeytango> nickrud, im sure i messed it up when i installed my 8500, the case was jammed and i wasnt exactly gentle getting it open:P  lost my front usb ports as well :D
[07:04] <bulmer> juan_ac: that meant it has not been detected, so you need to load the driver for it
[07:04] <nickrud> heh
[07:04] <Forager__> bulmer: running dhclient...  No DHCPOFFERS recieved.
[07:05] <lastent> summer_s4, I already have those
[07:05] <summer_s4> lastent: just reinstall.
[07:05] <bulmer> Forager__: are you sure you have a good cat 5 cable? straight and not cross over?
[07:05] <Niti> people, I've screwed up my windows system through a disk format. what ubuntu app should I use to recover my data?
[07:05] <bulmer> for your ubuntu box okay
[07:05] <zetheroo> scguy318: yeah I know,,,,, i don't see them either..... but when I go to the Software Sources list they are in the Third-Party section
[07:05] <whiskeytango> the funny part is that steam will load and everything, i just have no text, its just a  bunch of blank boxes
[07:05] <summer_s4> lets talk in private chat
[07:05] <Forager__> bulmer: yes.  The connections work fine in a windows environment.
[07:05] <scguy318> zetheroo: perhaps you should remove them from third-party and add them manually to sources.list
[07:06] <scguy318> zetheroo: as the instructions said
[07:06] <bulmer> Forager__: try to use the nm applet
[07:06] <juan_ac> bulmer: OK I tried that but I get an error when I'm compiling the driver
[07:06] <Forager__> bulmer: I'm also looking ath the GUI window "Devices - Network Tools" and I see something disturbing.
[07:06] <bulmer> juan_ac: well i dont know what errors you're getting, find a dlink driver for your ethernet nic and load it in, instead of compiling
[07:07] <scguy318> whiskeytango: u need to get the tahoma font
[07:07] <zetheroo> scguy318: the instructions don't say to do it manually ..... they say to enter this in the terminal: sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/feisty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
[07:07] <bulmer> Forager__: tell
[07:07] <Wooderson> does anyone know how to install gmail notifier on ubuntu?
[07:07] <Red_Tide> Forager__ try unplugging your router's power for ten seconds and then try again
[07:07] <CoasterMaster> !info formula
[07:07] <ubotu> Package formula does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[07:07] <xerophyte> which dns server is good bind, powerdns, or anything else ? any recommendation ?
[07:07] <juan_ac> bulmer: ok
[07:07] <zetheroo> scguy318: and thats what I did
[07:07] <CoasterMaster> !find formula
[07:07] <ubotu> Found: zope-formulator, kformula
[07:07] <CoasterMaster> damn
[07:07] <scguy318> zetheroo: mm, you're right
[07:07] <CoasterMaster> Does anyone know what package contains OpenOffice Formula?
[07:08] <juan_ac> bulmer: i have the one that came with the card, don't know how to load it... do I have to search for other?
[07:08] <Forager__> bulmer: The entire Interface Information column says not available.  Hardware address, MTU, State, all 5 items show as unavailable.
[07:08] <zetheroo> scguy318: do you know what i should put there if I want to do it manually?
[07:08] <bulmer> juan_ac: use the linux version, not the windows version, and if not on the cdrom, google for it
[07:08] <scguy318> zetheroo: deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt feisty main #WineHQ - Ubuntu 7.04 "Feisty Fawn"
[07:08] <scguy318> deb-src http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt feisty main #WineHQ - Ubuntu 7.04 "Feisty Fawn"
[07:09] <scguy318> zetheroo: though it may not be it
[07:09] <scguy318> zetheroo: im thinking it could be the GPG key operation
[07:09] <krammer> anybody have pidgin? which ver. is best
[07:09] <Wooderson> scguy318: do u know how to install gmail notifier?
[07:09] <zetheroo> scguy318: gosh... ok
[07:09] <juan_ac> bulmer: I got the linux version  is a *.tar.gz
[07:09] <bulmer> Forager__: under system->administration->networking  is it showing?
[07:09] <scguy318> zetheroo: gimme a moment
[07:10] <bulmer> juan_ac: then you have to untar and compile it..
[07:10] <scguy318> zetheroo: just redo the GPG key operation I suppose
[07:10] <juan_ac> bulmer: yep and then i get that error that I don't understand
[07:10] <wundaboy> i have an ext3 filesystem that comes up with errors every time it boots and i cant figure out how to fix it
[07:10] <scguy318> wundaboy: fsck error?
[07:11] <wundaboy> yeah
[07:11] <scguy318> wundaboy: if you are taken to a recovery console, then just type fsck and let it run
[07:11] <bulmer> juan_ac: i dont understand it either, specially if i dont see the errors
[07:11] <scguy318> wundaboy: thats it
[07:11] <wundaboy> scguy318: i tried ... it ran and fixed some things
[07:11] <wundaboy> then it exited
[07:11] <wundaboy> i rebooted, errors again
[07:11] <scguy318> wundaboy: dying HDD?
[07:11] <Forager__> bulmer: In Network Settings (System>Administration>Network) I show wired connection eth0 and eth1.  I don't use eth1.  Both say address DHCP.
[07:11] <wundaboy> it came up with a console again ... i tried fsck and it said that it was dangerous to run fsck on a mounted fs
[07:12] <Patch> Hi, I'm new to ubuntu and need help updating my graphics driver.  New to IRC too.  Is there a protocal as to how the support goes in here?
[07:12] <wundaboy> scguy318: i hope its not dying ...
[07:12] <juan_ac> BUlmer: Yes of course, I'm sorry... I will compile it again and tell you what's the output
[07:12] <scguy318> wundaboy: was this in recovery mode?
[07:12] <bulmer> Forager__: which interface you want activated?  then select it click and activate
[07:12] <wundaboy> scguy318: it told me it was starting a recovery console
[07:12] <scoobydoo28139> can I get some help installing my drivers for 8500gt?
[07:12] <scguy318> wundaboy: weird, you can try doing fsck from a LiveCD

[07:15] <ubotu> aldous: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:15] <Forager__> bulmer.  Yes, I triple checked.  I also verified the interface in Device manager. (which correctly declared the Vendor, Device and bus type, but Status = status and Device type and capabilities are both "Unknown".
[07:15] <murlidhar> in the panel ofcourse

[07:17] <bejeezus> how do i do it ? i tried sudo apt-get install perl didnt work
[07:18] <heguru> bejeezus: sudo apt-get --reinstall install perl
[07:18] <MrPrimate> portablejim, my experience is that the windows XP drivers for most network cards work with ndiswrapper
[07:18] <aldous> that's what i thought but i can't connect through gaim
[07:18] <scguy318> The-KMT: sudo fdisk -l to determine dev name of the USB key, sudo mount /dev/<the dev> /a/desired/mount/point
[07:18] <Niti> MrPrimate: my D partition, I formated my whote disk during the Ubuntu installation
[07:18] <zetheroo> scguy318 : well i would if i could see the key there..... but all there is is one called Scott Richie
[07:18] <The-KMT> i'll try , thanks
[07:18] <bulmer> juan_ac: did you get a chance to read the README file in that directory? you have to config and then make..
[07:18] <MrPrimate> aldous, if you supply the right credentials you should be able to connect, i know aim works in it currently for sure (am using it)
[07:18] <scguy318> zetheroo: interesting, looks like your GPG key db is screwy :(
[07:18] <MrPrimate> Niti, did you simply format the disk or install on top of it ?
[07:18] <portablejim> OK. I'll try that again (I just went though a reinstall, so my previous attempt was on the previous install).
[07:18] <zetheroo> scguy318: things are just getting better....ha
[07:19] <bejeezus> just tried --reinstall install perl i keep getting errors like this Can't locate File/Glob.pm in @INC
[07:19] <scguy318> zetheroo: you have any place where I can send files?
[07:19] <aldous> it doesn't accept the password i'm giving it i'm sure it is the right password for my yahoo account
[07:19] <MrPrimate> Niti, if there's something very specific and very valuable it might be possible to recover a file, but I don't know that you'll be able to get the whole directory system and all the files back , it probably wrote over the file structure
[07:19] <scguy318> aldous: whats the error? cannot connect, auth refused?
[07:19] <zetheroo> scguy318: send files?..... umm not really..... Email.... but I would rather not give it out here....
[07:20] <Niti> hmm
[07:20] <kobach> how do i run a program on startup as root?
[07:20] <aldous> let me try to connect again
[07:20] <Niti> any app I could use
[07:20] <MrPrimate> kobach, you could add it to init scripts or /etc/profile
[07:20] <sistom> how do I setup ytalk so that someone can ssh into my computer and we can talk securely?
[07:20] <The-KMT> what should i put in --> /a/desired/mount/point
[07:20] <juan_ac> bulmer: yes I read the readme file... it said make install... there's no configure in the gz
[07:20] <kobach> KK
[07:20] <scguy318> The-KMT: a directory where you wish to be able to access the USB stick files
[07:21] <bejeezus> heguru: any ideas on how to fix this error Can't locate File/Glob.pm in @INC ?
[07:21] <scguy318> The-KMT: i would just create a new directory in /media or /mnt
[07:21] <aldous> well it is trying to connect at the moment...
[07:21] <whiskeytang1> ok, how do open up a specific port in ubuntu?
[07:21] <juan_ac> bulmer: and when I type ./configure it  says: http://pastebin.ca/719320
[07:21] <bulmer> juan_ac: read the README file again once more..it has instructions on how to compile and install
[07:21] <MrPrimate> whiskeytang1, if you haven't installed a firewall ports are all open
[07:21] <The-KMT> scguy318 > okay , i'll try this
[07:21] <scguy318> zetheroo: mm, lemme think
[07:21] <whiskeytang1> this says closed when i test with deluge so..
[07:21] <heguru> bejeezus: did you use CPAN?
[07:21] <RoC_MasterMind> zetheroo, scguy318 try mediafire.com to transfer files
[07:22] <MrPrimate> whiskeytang1, it probably has nothing responding to that port ?
[07:22] <whiskeytang1> i have a router, that would effect it.  but i set all those to be open as well.
[07:22] <aldous> is it possible to import my address list in yahoo to gaim?
[07:22] <bejeezus> well i did something really dumb i copied libraries off one machine to mine
[07:22] <MrPrimate> whiskeytang1, what's deluge?  your router probably has a firewall, you want to forward a port back to your box
[07:22] <bejeezus> apart from using CPAN too
[07:23] <_SiLENT_> how do I install Ubuntu with dual booting
[07:23] <MrPrimate> aldous, your AIM contacts (probably also yahoo)are stored on the server and download whenver you connect
[07:23] <redheat> hi everyone
[07:23] <zetheroo> how does one get rid of a GPG key?
[07:23] <_SiLENT_> with WindosXP
[07:23] <redheat> just got a quick question?
[07:23] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, ubuntu should automatically ask you in setup which windows partitions to add to the boot menu
[07:23] <heguru> bejeezus: just do apt-get --reinstall install for all perl libraries
[07:23] <redheat> has beryl been changed to combizfusion?
[07:23] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, have you already installed and no windows on the boot menu ?
[07:23] <whiskeytang1> its a bittorrent client, and it looks like i will have to wait until my wife gets home, its his router and i dont have the password on it.  GG.
[07:23] <heguru> redheat: yes
[07:23] <aldous> it says unable to connect
[07:23] <MrPrimate> redheat, don't ask to ask, ask
[07:23] <_SiLENT_> I haven't installed yet
[07:23] <redheat> lol
[07:23] <redheat> absolutely
[07:23] <_SiLENT_> shouldn't I repartition my drive first?
[07:24] <sistom> how do I setup ytalk so that someone can ssh into my computer and we can talk securely?
[07:24] <redheat> so how do I install it? and does it have the same features as beryl?
[07:24] <heguru> !compiz | redheat
[07:24] <ubotu> redheat: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:24] <redheat> and did it overcome that problem of starting up under KDE?
[07:24] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, yes, you should create a partition for linux, if you only have a single windows partition you can shrink it in windows
[07:24] <bejeezus> heguru: wat do u mean by all perl libraries like perl perl-base ??
[07:25] <scguy318> zetheroo: you would just use Software Sources to remove
[07:25] <scguy318> zetheroo: but since your file is screwy
[07:25] <scguy318> zetheroo: do you want my GPG key file?
[07:25] <MrPrimate> redheat, the newest testing version of ubuntu, 7.10, has has all that fancy schmancy graphics stuff automatically
[07:25] <scguy318> zetheroo: mine is 100% functional
[07:25] <heguru> bejeezus: well perl-base is just a metapackage, do that for perl and libperl atleast
[07:25] <aldous> should i use "yahoo" protocol to load my contacts in yahoo messenger?
[07:25] <bejeezus> alrite i'll give it a shot
[07:25] <MrPrimate> redheat, but TESTING means it's not 100% stable yet, it will be stable in october
[07:25] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: I have partitions - 16GB NTFS and 133GB NTFS, what do I change it to?
[07:25] <redheat> yeah, will I had it for a while, but out of fear that its still an alpha or beta, I resorted back to 7.04
[07:26] <zetheroo> scguy318 : guess what ... I removed that Scott Richie one and now my other keys are going nuts
[07:26] <redheat> yeah I know
[07:26] <mikubuntu> oh, why, oh, why .... ?  i downloaded tribe 5 last week and was so thrilled because i got a nice crisp 1024 x 768 screenres, which i have not been able to get the last 4 mos on feisty ... so today i decided to go ahead and upgrade the beta of gutsy ... was kind of scary.  lots of errors in the process for some reason, and after couple hours of updating, i got a message that there was a...
[07:26] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, you can either delete one of those partitions (and everything inside it), or shrink one of them in windows,
[07:26] <scguy318> zetheroo: how would like for me to send my GPG key file?
[07:26] <mikubuntu> ...failure to upgrade, and my system might have been left 'unuseable' ... YIPES! but anyways, it's not unuseable, and after i rebooted, i ran sudo apt-get update, and seems to have updated most everything ok, and no probs with my data, BUT, i still have this DAMN 800 x 600 screenres, and i'm just BESIDE MYSELF about it ... lol ... <-- effort at humor)   can someone PLEASE help me get my...
[07:26] <mikubuntu> ...screenresolution up to snuff?
[07:26] <redheat> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion
[07:26] <scguy318> zetheroo: i know mine works, worth a shot to try to usem ine
[07:26] <redheat> should I follow the steps in the above URL to install Compiz?
[07:26] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, when you boot the ubuntu install CD, you will be able to create a new partition from the empty space, be VERY CAREFUL not to delete a partition that you want to keep the data inside,
[07:26] <aldous> and it says incorrect password
[07:26] <scoobydoo28139> envy not working
[07:26] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: I understood that, but what partition should I create?
[07:26] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, during the install, create a new partition from empty space, and make sure ONLY to format the new partition,
[07:26] <zetheroo> scguy318: is there no way that I can repair/edit mine?
[07:27] <heguru> !gutsy | mikubuntu
[07:27] <ubotu> mikubuntu: 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
[07:27] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, create it from inside the ubuntu install system,
[07:27] <whiskeytang1> if you create a partition it deleted the other ones.  learned that by mistake.
[07:27] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, you can choose EXT3 or ResiserFS, etc
[07:27] <_SiLENT_> oh, do I leave some space unpartitioned?
[07:27] <Curs0r> fsckr, ping
[07:27] <_SiLENT_> ok
[07:27] <_SiLENT_> which is better?
[07:27] <scguy318> zetheroo: if there is, im not really sure how
[07:27] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, yeah from windows just leave unpartitioned space, create it once in the ubuntu install disc
[07:27] <sistom> is there no way???
[07:27] <zetheroo> Does anyone know what the Scott Richie Authantication is?
[07:28] <MrPRiM8> _SiLENT_, ext3 is more standard and compatible with older stuff and more compatible in windows , resiser has some advantages
[07:28] <aldous> and it says incorrect password
[07:28] <zetheroo> Does anyone know how to repair a GPG db?
[07:28] <drewzf> hmm? netsplit or botnet?
[07:28] <scguy318> zetheroo: the Scott Richie key is the one that signs the Ubuntu repos
[07:28] <scguy318> zetheroo: okay
[07:28] <scguy318> zetheroo: can you pastebin the output of sudo apt-key list?
[07:28] <redheat> anyway..
[07:28] <redheat> thank you so much guys take care and have a nice day
[07:28] <redheat> bye
[07:29] <MrPrimate> man i can't wait for 7.10 stable, it looks gutsy
[07:29] <Curs0r> ouch bad humor
[07:29] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: what advantages?
[07:29] <bejeezus> heguru: sweet i tried --reinstall install perl perl-modules fixed the problem thanks
[07:29] <aldous> i just created an account using yahoo protocol in gaim i provided all what it needs but it says "incorrect password"...what should be the correct one
[07:29] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, i believe it has better indexing and some better mechanism for the way it sorts the files for storage and lookup
[07:29] <zetheroo> scguy318  :   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38988/
[07:30] <zetheroo> scguy318 : How do I get Scott Richie back?
[07:30] <phyizal> Any body got a chance to setup on board bluetooh on vostro 1400 with feisty?
[07:30] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: what do u mean ext3 is more compatile in windows? is it compatible in windows at all?
[07:30] <scipio> aldous, your yahoo account password
[07:30] <redheat> hi everyone
[07:30] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, you can get drivers to mount and access ext3 in windows , i dunno for resier
[07:30] <redheat> sorry for barging in again like this
[07:30] <scguy318> zetheroo: you can use my key file
[07:31] <scguy318> zetheroo: how would like for me to send it?
[07:31] <redheat> I have ubuntu gutsy 7.10, I think it was the alpha version, I downloaded it almost a month ago when it first surfaced
[07:31] <MrPrimate> redheat, you didnt have to slam the door
[07:31] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: ok, now tell me plz, after starting the liveCD how will I install ubuntu?
[07:31] <redheat> lol
[07:31] <RyCk> Buenas?
[07:31] <redheat> I just broke in
[07:31] <scguy318> _SiLENT_: you run the GUI installer
[07:31] <zetheroo> scguy318: do you use Skype?
[07:31] <sistom> is there any type of GUI xtalk, ytalk, utalk programs for me to converse with someone who is logged in via ssh?
[07:31] <scguy318> zetheroo: unfortunately, no
[07:31] <scguy318> zetheroo: mm
[07:31] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, the live CD boots into a gnome desktop, everything should work (sound,video,network,etc), run the install program (icon on desktop), etc.
[07:31] <scguy318> zetheroo: lemme just use...rapidshare :P
[07:31] <redheat> how do I do an upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10
[07:31] <RoC_MasterMind> mediafire.com!
[07:32] <zetheroo> scguy318 : Yahoo MSN?
[07:32] <redheat> I mean
[07:32] <MrPrimate> redheat, I thought you said you already had 7.10
[07:32] <redheat> no I have 7.04
[07:32] <scguy318> zetheroo: I have MSN
[07:32] <Ashfire908> is there a way to immediaty stop an uninterruptableprocess?
[07:32] <MrPrimate> redheat, you can do it with the update manager
[07:32] <redheat> I used to have 7.10 but I took it off and replaced
[07:32] <zetheroo> scguy318 : ok... MSN then
[07:32] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: how will I connect to internet? (I got ADSL through ethernet card)
[07:32] <redheat> out of sheer fear
[07:32] <redheat> how?
[07:32] <MrPrimate> redheat,  gksu "update-manager -c -d
[07:32] <sistom> _SiLENT_: it should detect it automatically
[07:32] <RoC_MasterMind> Ashfire908, kill -9 processID
[07:33] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, kill -9 <pid> will absolutely, positively, kill anything but a zombie process
[07:33] <MrPrimate> redheat, this will allow you to d/l and upgrade distro
[07:33] <murlidhar> how do i get transperancy in drop down menus???
[07:33] <murlidhar> in the panel ofcourse
[07:33] <_SiLENT_> I hope it won't download anything automatically, my traffic is very expensive to me
[07:33] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, boot from the live cd, and see if it works, just open mozilla and try googel or something
[07:33] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, think of it as pulling the power plug for that particular application :)
[07:33] <sistom> is there any type of GUI xtalk, ytalk, utalk programs for me to converse with someone who is logged in via ssh?
[07:33] <zetheroo> scguy318: My MSN is leozeth21@hotmail.com
[07:33] <MrPrimate> murlidhar, turn on desktop effects in the system>preferences
[07:33] <Ashfire908> thanks. xchat went nuts and launched a lot of sound files to play and the average load is over 221
[07:33] <MrPrimate> sistom, try google
[07:33] <redheat> ok. But I will be able to retain all the I already downloaded, right?
[07:34] <GarryFre> kill -pray -9 process# might kill the rest.
[07:34] <MrPrimate> sistom, i've always used just plain old talk on the shell
[07:34] <aldous> ah thanks... MrPrimate, scipio
[07:34] <aldous> i got it now
[07:34] <MrPrimate> aldous, you got it? nice
[07:34] <aldous> yes thank
[07:34] <Forager__> bulmer...  can't physically remove the unused NIC.. It's integrated into the mainboard.  I can't find the way to remove from the configs or otherwise disable it.
[07:34] <scguy318> zetheroo: i've added you, though don't really need to use MSN
[07:34] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: how much space does Ubuntu need on partition?
[07:35] <MrPrimate> i'm about  to upgrade dist to 7.10 myself :)
[07:35] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, it only NEEDs a few gb, but I would recommend 20+ gb
[07:35] <Ashfire908> uh, the processes won't die
[07:35] <redheat> MrPrimate
[07:35] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, if Windows will not allow you to shrink enough space, but you have the space on the drive, run defragment
[07:35] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: tell me how many Gb precisely plz, I wanna repartition my first 16Gb  partition
[07:36] <sistom> mrprimate, I get YTalk #No talk deamon on computername
[07:36] <murlidhar> MrPrimate: there is no menu to turn on desktop effects
[07:36] <redheat> it's not working, I entered the above command as you told me, and it just gave me a list of commands to be used
[07:36] <scguy318> Ashfire908: kill -9 PID?
[07:36] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements
[07:36] <monzie> hi all
[07:36] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, what argument are you specifying? You need the Process ID of the application you wish to kill before you can
[07:36] <MrPrimate> murlidhar, which version of ubuntu are you on? System->About Ubuntu
[07:36] <Thirsteh> If you want to kill everything with a certain name, you can try killall xchat
[07:36] <monzie> I had a 15" dell monitor runnning at 1024x768
[07:36] <Ashfire908> i did
[07:36] <MrPrimate> sistom, possibly you need to run talkd ?
[07:36] <Ashfire908> it didn't stop
[07:36] <monzie> i now changed over to a Samsung Syncmaster 940 NW
[07:36] <murlidhar> MrPrimate: i am on feisty
[07:37] <aldous> is it possible to download yahoo messenger in ubuntu 7.04
[07:37] <aldous> ?
[07:37] <MrPrimate> sistom, apt-get install talkd
[07:37] <_SiLENT_> that's it I am going for it :)
[07:37] <redheat> ok I got it
[07:37] <monzie> i am unable to change the resolution to 1440x900
[07:37] <monzie> please
[07:37] <monzie> help[
[07:37] <scguy318> monzie: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, make sure to backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:37] <redheat> I saw the 7.10 upgrade thingy
[07:37] <Ashfire908> the processes are marked uninteruptible does that effect anything
[07:37] <redheat> thank you so much MrPrimate
[07:37] <Forager__> bulmer.  I need to call it a night.  THanks for your help. I'll be aback at it in a day or three.
[07:37] <_SiLENT_> btw, does the liveCD hav the partitioning utils?
[07:37] <redheat> and this time I won't slam the door..I'll take it with me
[07:37] <monzie> GNOME is only showing me "1280x104" and "1024x768"
[07:37] <MrPrimate> aldous, http://messenger.yahoo.com/unix.php
[07:37] <redheat> take care and have a nice day
[07:38] <monzie> can someone please tell me how to change the resolution?
[07:38] <murlidhar> MrPrimate: i ever right clicked the panel to select "edit menu" . ever there i can't see the menu desktop effects
[07:38] <scguy318> monzie: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, make sure to backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:38] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, if you can't kill it it's probably a zombie process. Those shouldn't consume any CPU time
[07:38] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: does the liveCD hav the partitioning utils?
[07:38] <MrPrimate> murlidhar, i have it on 7.04 feisty
[07:38] <Ashfire908> Thirsteh, it's not a zombie
[07:38] <monzie> scguy318, i already did that . i can see 1440x900 in xorg.conf
[07:38] <lastent> I'm having a problem, everytime I turn my computer on I have to reinstall the driver for my Nvidia GeForce Go 7400 because the graphic server fall, they said it is an ubuntu package problem, any idea?
[07:38] <xgxue> i have install Xubuntu 7.04 in my mac G3, but it is not fill my screen. Why? thank you!
[07:38] <monzie> but GNOME is not accepting those values
[07:38] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, the livecd has tools to delete, create, format, etc partitions, and i think it has ntfs-resize, bu you might find the windows tool to shrink the volume easier if you're not used to linux
[07:38] <Ashfire908> my average load is over 334
[07:39] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, kill -9 <PID> will kill -anything- that's not a zombie. There's no way an app can catch that signal and/or ignore it
[07:39] <MrPrimate> xgxue, try changing desktop resolution preferences>screen resolution
[07:39] <scguy318> zetheroo: http://rapidshare.com/files/59005503/trusted.gpg.html
[07:39] <aldous> what should i download for ubuntu 7.04, redhat, debian or freebsd?
[07:39] <Ashfire908> Thirsteh, what if the app is so lost it can't do anything at all
[07:39] <MrPrimate> Ashfire908, you can try also pkill -9 <name> if you dont know the PID
[07:40] <MrPrimate> death is not always optional when you're killed
[07:40] <aldous> what should i download for ubuntu 7.04, redhat, debian or freebsd?
[07:40] <MrPrimate> you guys ever hear about that creepy german programmer guy who ate some guy
[07:40] <scguy318> aldous: i don't understand your question
[07:40] <xgxue> But there is only  one resolution( 800*600)
[07:41] <scguy318> xgxue: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:41] <MrPrimate> aldous, debian
[07:41] <Ashfire908> nope it still won't stop
[07:41] <MrPrimate> aldous, ubuntu is a sort of debian
[07:41] <wolferine> no, but I heard about the guy who killed his wife
[07:41] <scguy318> Ashfire908: whats the process name and ID?
[07:41] <MrPrimate> wolferine, hehe, resiser
[07:41] <wolferine> yep
[07:41] <MrPrimate> wolferine, that's  allegedly killed his wife
[07:41] <scguy318> MrPrimate: Hans Resier
[07:41] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, try whipping up a terminal, type: top    - the process consuming CPU should be at the top of the list, along with its PID. kill -9 that PID
[07:41] <Ashfire908> aplay 9328
[07:41] <aldous> err... sorrry for the wrong question
[07:41] <wolferine> nah, he did it
[07:41] <xgxue> Ok, i will try
[07:41] <xgxue> thank you
[07:41] <MrPrimate> allegedly and most probably ,
[07:41] <scguy318> Ashfire908: kill -9 9328
[07:41] <MrPrimate> i can't say anything is fact that i've only heard from news articles tho
[07:42] <wolferine> Wired
[07:42] <scguy318> MrPrimate: the Reiser story is kinda, I guess, old news
[07:42] <Thirsteh> scguy318, if xchat is launching aplay it's likely it will just restart it, explaining why he can't seem to kill it
[07:42] <scguy318> Thirsteh: ah, didn't know that was the case
[07:42] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, iirc you said xchat did this? Try killing the xchat process and not aplay
[07:42] <Ashfire908> no change
[07:42] <scguy318> zetheroo: respond please
[07:42] <Ashfire908> already tried that
[07:42] <MrPrimate> you gotta see this one, this german cannibal guy, he finds some guy who WANTS to be eaten, and so they get together, and he kills the guy in a bathtub, but before the guy dies, he cuts off his winky and they dine on it together, how's that for a last meal?
[07:42] <sistom> MrPrimate: if one use 'talk username' it says 'ringing username' and the other user gets no type of notification
[07:43] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, with a '-9' switch?
[07:43] <Ashfire908> top says there is no zombies
[07:43] <Ashfire908> yes
[07:43] <Ashfire908> and sudo
[07:43] <MrPrimate> what's really a tough one though, who is more disturbed, the guy who eats him or the guy wants to be eaten ?
[07:43] <aldous> should i install yahoo messenger through the terminal or should i just double click it to install?
[07:43] <summer_s4> what is the off topic room?
[07:43] <MrPrimate> sistom, maybe you do the device rather than username? its been a whiel
[07:43] <wolferine> !offtopic
[07:43] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[07:43] <Ashfire908> is there something else i could use?
[07:43] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, can you paste the output of 'ps ax' to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[07:44] <Thirsteh> and throw the link
[07:44] <MrPrimate> or better even,   ps faux
[07:44] <Thirsteh> true :)
[07:44] <MrPrimate> i like to see the chain of parents
[07:44] <aldous> should i install yahoo messenger through the terminal or should i just double click it to install?
[07:45] <aldous> and how will i be able to log in as root?
[07:45] <MrPrimate> Ashfire908, when you kill it, did you notice if the process ID changes? it may be being re-spawned
[07:45] <MrPrimate> aldous, you can run it with 'sudo' from the terminal to run as root
[07:45] <Ashfire908> nope same pid
[07:45] <summer_s4> can someone help me code my desktop thing (windows areo copy)
[07:46] <murlidhar> i can't see the desktop effects in system>preferences
[07:46] <Ashfire908> or what ever you call it
[07:46] <MrPrimate> summer_s4, what's windows aero ?
[07:46] <scguy318> MrPrimate: i believe its the Vista theme
[07:46] <Thirsteh> aldous, 'sudo dpkg --install file.deb' if it's a .deb you've downloaded somewhere, 'sudo apt-get install <name>' if you want to download it off Ubuntu's repositories
[07:46] <MrPrimate> murlidhar, maybe you need to upgrade to a newer ubuntu ?
[07:46] <summer_s4> mrprimate: it is the desktop theme for windows vista
[07:46] <MrPrimate> summer_s4, why would you want to reproduce that steaming pile ?
[07:47] <aldous> what does this mean? dpkg -i ymessenger_1.0.4_1_i386.deb
[07:47] <Shinobii> hi all
[07:47] <summer_s4> mrprimate:  i just want the look
[07:47] <Shinobii> I need 1 command
[07:47] <MrPrimate> at least it doesnt look as bad as that awful teletubby windows XP crap
[07:47] <moDumass> hey all, does anyone know if video calling is supported in skype for linux?
[07:47] <Shinobii> how to update my office?
[07:47] <Ashfire908> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38989/
[07:47] <Thirsteh> aldous, that installs yahoo messenger. On Ubuntu you'll need to append 'sudo'
[07:47] <summer_s4> modumbass: yes it is
[07:47] <murlidhar> MrPrimate: i have the  the latest stable release
[07:47] <moDumass> summer_s4, thanks
[07:47] <summer_s4> modumbass: at least i am 99% sure it is
[07:48] <MrPrimate> murlidhar, if you've got 7.04 you should have System>Preferences>Desktop Effects
[07:48] <murlidhar> i can't see the desktop effects in system>preferences    i guess i uninstalled the package so how do i get my package back for desktop effects
[07:48] <summer_s4> murlidhar: you didn't delete the package.
[07:48] <murlidhar> MrPrimate: do u want the screenshot???
[07:49] <MrPrimate> murlidhar, its probably compiz or compiz-gnome?  maybe you should look for a tutorial on google
[07:49] <summer_s4> murlidhar: right click applacations, click edit menu
[07:49] <MrPrimate> why do people think its easier to ask here before consulting google ?
[07:49] <moDumass> summer_s4, do i reinstall it from synapsis or do i go with the app from skype itself?
[07:49] <murlidhar> summer_s4: did that still can't see there. :(
[07:49] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, kill -9 9651
[07:49] <moDumass> synaptic sorry
[07:49] <scguy318> MrPrimate: plenty of people have poor search skills, seriously
[07:49] <heguru> moDumass: skype does not support video calling in Linux
[07:49] <summer_s4> modumbass: that i don't know
[07:50] <aldous> it says cannot access archive: no such file or directory errors were encountered while processing
[07:50] <summer_s4> heguru: they do now if you have a supported webcam
[07:50] <moDumass> heguru hmm, so whos right here, you or summer_s4? il try the new version
[07:50] <dougie> can anyone help me I can't get my sound to work for anything.
[07:50] <MrPrimate> does anyone know if i cross my fingers while issuing this command if it will help
[07:50] <murlidhar> summer_s4: i see in add/remove that beryl is not installed . probly i might have uninstalled it?????
[07:50] <wolferine> dougie probably
[07:50] <MrPrimate> n/m ill ask google
[07:50] <aldous> it says cannot access archive: no such file or directory errors were encountered while processing <<< does this mean i downloaded the wrong file?
[07:50] <wolferine> dougie, since most people all over the planet have done it
[07:50] <macogw> summer_s4: when did *that* happen?
[07:51] <heguru> summer_s4: since when? as of now (and I have skype's website in front) they don't
[07:51] <summer_s4> murlidhar: you didn't.  Desktop effects are hidden
[07:51] <Thirsteh> aldous, where is the .deb file located?
[07:51] <summer_s4> macogw: yesterday
[07:51] <MrPrimate> anyone else notice that ubuntu kicks the snot out of every commercial operating system on the planet ?
[07:51] <aldous> in my desktop
[07:51] <agerbon> DCC SEND lol_zewb_ownz_you_fag 0 0 0
[07:51] <summer_s4> heguru: just a few seconds ago
[07:51] <MrPRiM8> argh... whats up with them shplits
[07:51] <aldous> Thirsteh: in my desktop
[07:52] <Thirsteh> aldous, when you open up a terminal, first type 'cd Desktop', then the other command
[07:52] <summer_s4> **** this
[07:52] <inflex> how can I change my Ubuntu grub boot to boot up Windows first by default rather than Ubuntu
[07:52] <murlidhar> summer_s4: i rightclicked on the panel to select edit menu i  still can't see the option to select it
[07:52] <CyberMad> i have problem with my ubuntu 7.04, this happen with 2 computers.. we got 6 ubuntu PC here... so the problem is sometime and right now the screen resolution only get 800x600, but it should get 1024x768.. what's wrong?
[07:52] <Thirsteh> aldous, it can't find the .deb cause you're in your home folder in the terminal, not on the desktop
[07:52] <heguru> summer_s4: they don't
[07:52] <dougie> well i have the Sigmatel STAC9200 chip i've installed the newest alsa rc3 and its still not working
[07:52] <summer_s4> murlidhar: it is there somewere
[07:52] <dougie> tried several of the guides on the forums and can't seem to get anything working
[07:52] <Thirsteh> MrPrimate, yes :)
[07:53] <dougie> And yes I've unmuted it
[07:53] <summer_s4> heguru: i like pulling random things out of the stinky end
[07:53] <wolferine> which client does that effect tonyyarusso ?
[07:53] <MrPrimate> dougie, what do you get when you try to run alsamixer, and are the modules loaded in lsmod ?
[07:53] <scguy318> inflex: edit menu.ls
[07:53] <MrPrimate> i want to get a pet ubuntu
[07:53] <scguy318> *menu.lst
[07:53] <summer_s4> ashfire: do you work at wikipedia?
[07:53] <murlidhar> summer_s4: i have searched it for so many times i knew this feature before
[07:54] <Ashfire908> that didn't help. i told you the processes are not zombies
[07:54] <dougie> MrPrimate, it opens up alsamixer and shows my card and its chip and everything
[07:54] <summer_s4> murlidhar: i don't know.  Mabye the installation never installed it
[07:54] <inflex> If you've got a normal XP/linux setup, which number should XP be (the last entry)
[07:54] <inflex> 5 ?
[07:54] <inflex> ie, if I do a grub-reboot 5
[07:54] <Ashfire908> where is the sound settings stored
[07:54] <dougie> MrPrimate, I'm not sure what module should be loaded? It uses Intel-HDA something or other
[07:55] <macogw> CyberMad: well if you have certain graphics cards, they don't do certain resolutions as a built-in thing and the windows driver can force non-built-in ones but the linux ones doesn't.  for me, that's an old ATI Rage II
[07:55] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, the "D" in the stat column indicates a zombie process. xchat was the parent process spawning all of the aplay's
[07:55] <summer_s4> ashfire908: look next to the time
[07:55] <dougie> MrPrimate, nvm I found it snd_hda_intel and its loaded
[07:55] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, all of the processes are likely still there, but are resources still being used?
[07:55] <zetheroo> NO_PUBKEY 40976EAF437D05B5
[07:55] <murlidhar> summer_s4: it did i saw it about 2 weeks back . i installed and uninstalled compiz-fusion prbly that caused this to uninstall
[07:55] <zetheroo> what do I do?
[07:55] <Ashfire908> IT DID NOT STOP THE PROCESSES THOUGHT
[07:55] <brad016> Can anyone tell me a good site to get Ubuntu themes
[07:55] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, and sorry for killing your xchat while we were talking, I realize that was a bit counterproductive :)
[07:56] <summer_s4> murlidhar:  i dunno what happened but compiz going bye bye dosn't cause that to happen
[07:56] <kkathman> brad016:  gnome-look.org
[07:56] <_MattB> i installed ubuntu server using software raid for / and when i reboot it says "stopping md0    fail"
[07:56] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, you can ignore the zombies, they'll go away whenever you reboot
[07:56] <gary> what u want 2 do
[07:56] <Ashfire908> where is the sound configuration kept
[07:56] <brad016> kkathman, thanks
[07:56] <kkathman> yw
[07:56] <aldous> it says bash: cd desktop no such file or directory
[07:56] <_MattB> any pointers on where i can look for evidence of what is going wrong?
[07:56] <tonyyarusso> wolferine: Various client-router combinations.  I don't think there's a definitive list.
[07:56] <murlidhar> summer_s4: strange how did it just go missin!!!!!!?
[07:56] <wolferine> ah
[07:56] <wolferine> i thought it was a client
[07:56] <macogw> aldous: case sensitive
[07:56] <Thirsteh> aldous, 'Desktop' with a capital D, Linux is case sensitive :)
[07:57] <Ashfire908> THirsteh my system is going to crash if i don't do something about it the average load is over 682
[07:57] <summer_s4> murlidhar: check your log.  It might have been a ddos attack
[07:57] <zetheroo> how do I restore the Ubuntu repo keys?
[07:58] <murlidhar> summer_s4: err how do i do that?:?
[07:58] <Ashfire908> where is the sound configuration stored
[07:58] <summer_s4> murlidhar: system/admin/system logs
[07:58] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, the only other process seeming to consume resources on your system is Firefox, and it's not a lot. You can try 'killall aplay' to kill any of the aplay's that may still be running but aren't zombies
[07:58] <summer_s4> says there
[07:58] <heguru> Ashfire908: ~/.asoundrc
[07:58] <Thirsteh> Ashfire908, sound configuration for what, xchat?
[07:58] <heguru> Ashfire908: /usr/share/alsa/asound.conf
[07:59] <aldous> reading database... <<< does this mean that it's installing now?
[07:59] <kjp> is there anything that would keep lcd proc from connecting and working? it's failing with a sock_connect error....
[07:59] <Thirsteh> aldous, yes, most likely
[07:59] <heguru> Ashfire908: /etc/asoundrc
[07:59] <twoshadetod> how can i connect to a windows /pcanywhere system from ubuntu?
[07:59] <murlidhar> summer_s4: i know that but how do i find whether there was a ddos attack?
[07:59] <summer_s4> murlidhar:  there is about a bizillion ping requests from lots of different ip addresses
[07:59] <Nubbie> twoshadetod: ask pcanywhere to write you linux drivers
[07:59] <gce> twoshadetod: rdesktop
[07:59] <twoshadetod> thanks gce
[07:59] <Nubbie> or that.
[08:00] <Nubbie> :)
[08:00] <heguru> twoshadetod: pcanywhere has linux support as of version 11.5
[08:00] <Juggie> is there a place to ask about ubuntu gutsy?
[08:00] <Ashfire908> no the file that lets you select what to use for sound
[08:00] <Nubbie> !gutsy
[08:00] <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
[08:00] <moDumass> hey all, does anyone know of a link that helps install a webcam in fiesty? i havea  logitech quickcam messenger.. i think
[08:01] <twoshadetod> heguru, you know if the client is free to download?
[08:01] <aldous> and where will i be able to see what i've installed?
[08:01] <twoshadetod> offhand.
[08:01] <kjp> wow, resolving localhost is failing
[08:01] <heguru> twoshadetod: if you have PCAnywhere Licensed then yes
[08:01] <kjp> any one care to guess why ?
[08:01] <murlidhar> summer_s4: nope no requests that i can see
[08:01] <aldous> it says it has broken dependencies
[08:01] <murlidhar> summer_s4: seen all the logs
[08:02] <summer_s4> murlidhar:  don't know what happened.  This shouldn't happen.  It is in a root owned read only directory
[08:02] <aldous> Package xlibs is not installed.
[08:02] <aldous> dpkg: error processing ymessenger (--install):

[08:03] <Rageon> where can i get pidgin?
[08:03] <Nubbie> !paste > aldous

[08:05] <Sajes> How do I re-enable nautilus?
[08:05] <Z1mmy> it installs the mail system i hear
[08:05] <Yoric1> Thirsteh: It isn't - It's Gaim only
[08:05] <MrPrimate> Z1mmy, whatever it is, their website says it works on ubuntu
[08:05] <aldous> Package xlibs is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[08:05] <aldous> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or

[08:05] <aldous> However the following packages replace it:
[08:05] <aldous>   libxft1 xkb-data
[08:05] <aldous> E: Package xlibs has no installation candidate
[08:05] <Thirsteh> Yoric1, yeah it hit me after I said it

[08:10] <Rageon> this is the problem lol
[08:10] <CyberMad> any help?
[08:10] <Rageon> 50 gig .. dont have it spare
[08:10] <MrPrimate> CyberMad, thats kinda wierd if it changed on its own, you try to change screen resolution from the menu ?
[08:11] <Ashfire908> CyberMad, you need to describe your problem more. you are being vague
[08:11] <Rageon> and they are all divx so i cant compress
[08:12] <MrPrimate> Rageon, delete crap your're not using, shrink the partition, create a small partition of 1-2GB, copy stuff to that,delete the big partition, put new partition and install linux on big partition, then copy files from small partition and make it into swap
[08:12] <aldous> please teach me how to install the packages
[08:12] <MrPrimate> aldous, apt-get install [packagename] 
[08:12] <_MattB> MrPrimate, what does bcrypt use as a key? i don't see an option for a password or anything
[08:12] <Rageon> lol dude HEAR Me i spent a week making room just to format.. theres knowwhere for this data to goto
[08:12] <Rageon> apart from 25 dvds burnt..
[08:12] <MrPrimate> aldous, apt-get install libxft1             or            apt-get install xkb-data
[08:12] <CyberMad> MrPrimate no i didn't change it..  it just change it by itself
[08:12] <Rageon> so i just wanna delete "Windows" "program files" etc
[08:12] <Ashfire908> CyberMad, are you applying updates or did you change your graphics driver
[08:12] <MrPrimate> _MattB, for security, it will prompt you after you run it
[08:13] <_MattB> ah, lol
[08:13] <TEHchosenONE> aldous: theres a easier way go to system > administration > synaptic package manager
[08:13] <MrPrimate> _MattB, bcrypt is blowfish i think, there's another good one using AES if you prefer but i cant remember the name off the top
[08:13] <CyberMad> MrPrimate that's the weird thing, i don't do anything
[08:13] <sauvin_> How does one blacklist a Broadcom wireless?
[08:13] <_MattB> blowfish is fine for this
[08:13] <CyberMad> MrPrimate btw, i want to make sure
[08:13] <_MattB> i just don't want my webhost snooping through my svn backups
[08:13] <MrPrimate> CyberMad, you could remove 800x600 from the X11 config, but maybe its a hardware problem and it wont boot after that ?
[08:13] <CyberMad> MrPrimate how to check current screen resolution?
[08:14] <MrPrimate> _MattB, yeah bcrypt is great for simple stuff, i encrypt my code with it before archiving on CD or pendisc
[08:14] <paranoid_ndroid> read the FAQ | FAQ, etc
[08:14] <CyberMad> MrPrimate ok, maybe i must restart it
[08:14] <MrPrimate> CyberMad, System->Preferences->Screen Resolution
[08:14] <paranoid_ndroid> windows doesn't tell you to read the FAQ
[08:14] <TEHchosenONE> hello everybody can somebody help me create a server to host my files on for people to download?
[08:14] <MrPrimate> CyberMad, check that screen resoltuion under preferences first
[08:14] <paranoid_ndroid> I guess that for most people reading is boring, period.
[08:15] <zetheroo> anyone?
[08:15] <zetheroo> I need some help with GPG keys here..
[08:15] <MrPrimate> windows tells you   "Windows has experienced an error. " and gives you some vague number and no hope for relief
[08:15] <w51956> 
[08:15] <paranoid_ndroid> that's ok, you just press enter :))
[08:15] <nickrud>  !cn | w51956
[08:15] <TEHchosenONE> zetheroo: you should really search on the ubuntu forums for this
[08:15] <ubotu> w51956: For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[08:15] <MrPrimate> paranoid_ndroid, and then your computer continues misoperating :] 
[08:15] <paranoid_ndroid> and most users say #care
[08:16] <MrPrimate> how in gods name do chinese people read those characters..
[08:16] <zetheroo> TEHchosenONE: i have and everyone is sorta not getting to my problem...
[08:16] <paranoid_ndroid> it "works" for most people
[08:16] <paranoid_ndroid> otherwise they would stop using it
[08:16] <TEHchosenONE> zetheroo: what is your problem?
[08:16] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, whats the problem ? i'll try to help, but i havent used gpg ina while
[08:16] <scguy318> MrPrimate: W: GPG error: http://archive.ubuntu.com feisty-security Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>
[08:16] <paranoid_ndroid> zetheroo google for tinfoil hat
[08:16] <elektronisch> i just booted my system after updating everything with apt-get and now it wont boot anymore and stops at "preparing restricted drivers"
[08:16] <TEHchosenONE> me either MrPrimate
[08:16] <elektronisch> anyone else have this issue??
[08:16] <scguy318> MyPrimate: that's his error
[08:17] <MrPrimate> scguy318, what are you using gpg for, packages ?
[08:17] <TEHchosenONE> elektronisch: did you try using the restricted drivers for your card?
[08:17] <MrPrimate> err, zetheroo
[08:17] <scguy318> MrPrimate: repos have GPG keys
[08:17] <elektronisch> TEHchosenONE, it will not even boot anymore..
[08:17] <scguy318> MrPriate: when he did sudo apt-get update, the app returned that error
[08:18] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: W: GPG error: http://archive.ubuntu.com feisty-security Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[08:18] <TEHchosenONE> elektronisch: can you get in to recovery mode
[08:18] <scguy318> MrPriate: hes tried a few suggestions to no avail
[08:18] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, you could try to download new signatures ?
[08:18] <scguy318> MrPrimate: we did, imported the ubuntu keyring
[08:18] <elektronisch> TEHchosenONE, once i find the cd =/
[08:18] <mneptok> zetheroo: and when you ran apt-get update?
[08:18] <elektronisch> i knew i shouldnt of updated..
[08:18] <scguy318> mneptok: that same error
[08:18] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, did you apt-get update like it says ?
[08:19] <TEHchosenONE> elektronisch: there is a recovery mode at grub does that run
[08:19] <portablejim> Anyone have a D-link G122 rev c?
[08:19] <MrPrimate> where are you guys getting the signatures ?
[08:19] <TEHchosenONE> elektronisch: are you in ubuntu right now?
[08:19] <inigomontoya> portablejim, no...are you having problems with it?
[08:19] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: yes..... everything
[08:19] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, you could ignore signatures if you don't care
[08:20] <portablejim> not sure which drivers to use with ndiswrapper.
[08:20] <paranoid_ndroid> zetheroo: I heard that mac just works
[08:20] <TEHchosenONE> elektronisch: tell me everything you did before this problem occurred so i can help you better
[08:20] <scguy318> MrPrimate: /usr/share/keyrings/ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg
[08:20] <mneptok> zetheroo: it happens sometimes during updates. are you using Gutsy or Feisty?
[08:20] <nickrud> tried reinstalling ubuntu-keyring?
[08:21] <inigomontoya> portablejim, did you check the ndisrapper wiki?
[08:21] <portablejim> http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,list_c-f/ says to use the drivers on the CD except I cannot find the CD.
[08:21] <TEHchosenONE> nickrud: good point
[08:21] <elektronisch> TEHchosenONE, apt-get update, apt-get upgrade :reboot:
[08:21] <sistom>  Is there anyway that I can have a GUI alert whenever someone logs in via SSH?
[08:21] <inigomontoya> portablejim, check the dlink site for the windows xp drivers
[08:21] <elektronisch> the server is headless and a big pain in the ass to get a monitor over into that room and its basically never touched since it acts as a file server
[08:21] <portablejim> ok.
[08:21] <aldous> i already installed the broken package via synaptic manager, what should i do next?
[08:21] <TEHchosenONE> but did you have the restricted drivers in use before this?
[08:22] <elektronisch> yes, nvidia drivers
[08:22] <elektronisch> and that cards still in there
[08:22] <TEHchosenONE> ok
[08:22] <elektronisch> will it boot okay if i pull the video card out?  i really dont need video on it anyway
[08:22] <MrPrimate> zetheroo left, hmm...
[08:22] <elektronisch> i just need ssh to start
[08:22] <MrPrimate> scguy318, i guess he left, but he could download new signatures or ones specific for whatever app he watned
[08:22] <TEHchosenONE> im not sure
[08:22] <elektronisch> guess ill try
[08:23] <TEHchosenONE> you can try
[08:23] <TEHchosenONE> then come back here
[08:23] <scguy318> MrPrimate: his case is a bit strange, did the whole gpg --export business
[08:23] <MrPrimate> elektronisch, you can boot without video card on most mobo
[08:23] <scguy318> MrPrimate: and yes I know about how to import :)
[08:23] <aldous> i already installed the broken package via synaptic manager, what should i do next?
[08:23] <MrPrimate> scguy318, yeah he probably figured it out or gave up i guess
[08:23] <Shinobii> hello all
[08:23] <murlidhar_> MasterShrek: are you there???
[08:23] <scguy318> anyway I'm dead tired night
[08:23] <aldous> i already installed the broken package via synaptic manager, what should i do next?
[08:23] <Shinobii> How can I update my openoffice set?
[08:23] <MrPrimate> i'm about to try gutsy,.. cant wait to reboot
[08:23] <Shinobii> I need the command
[08:23] <TEHchosenONE> can somebody help me setup a server so i can host my files on it
[08:24] <elektronisch> ill fix this in the morning, its never good to try to fix something when you're really tired because you just end up breaking things more!
[08:24] <elektronisch> night all
[08:24] <MrPrimate> Shinobii, apt-get upgrade should get latest distrobution package
[08:24] <Shinobii> ok
[08:24] <Shinobii> thx
[08:24] <TEHchosenONE> elektronisch: good night thats a good idea
[08:24] <MrPrimate> Shinobii, for everything, not just oo
[08:24] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, what kind of server, ftp, web, ?
[08:24] <TEHchosenONE> web server
[08:24] <inigomontoya> are there any speed improvements in using a "low latency" kernel on a desktop
[08:24] <TEHchosenONE> so somebody can download my files
[08:24] <MrPrimate> i've got a few debian boxes in racks at data centers, nothing on ubuntu tho
[08:25] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, you just want to install apache or whatever to your local box and open up the ports to let traffic in ?
[08:25] <Shinobii> well... it does update only my compiz-fusion
[08:25] <TEHchosenONE> yeah
[08:25] <TEHchosenONE> ive installed apache
[08:25] <Shinobii> but I'm sure my openoffice sux, it should be with pictogramms
[08:25] <aldous> i already installed the broken package via synaptic manager, what should i do next?
[08:25] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, do you have a domain to point, ?  static or dynamic ip?
[08:25] <TEHchosenONE> but i cant get past that
[08:25] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, apache2 ?
[08:25] <Shinobii> but it's all buttons with only text
[08:25] <TEHchosenONE> dynamic ip
[08:26] <TEHchosenONE> apache2
[08:26] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, if apache2 is installed, you should try  from web browser:   http://localhost/   -- see if the server is responding to local port 80
[08:26] <Shinobii> MrPrimate: How to uninstall openoffice?
[08:26] <TEHchosenONE> it says it works!!!
[08:26] <TEHchosenONE> Shinobii: this isnt a search angine
[08:26] <MrPrimate> Shinobii, apt-get remove openoffice.org
[08:26] <TEHchosenONE> engine**
[08:27] <chewd> good evening folks
[08:27] <TEHchosenONE> MrPrimate: i went there and it says "it works!"
[08:27] <Shinobii> Sorry, but I always forget the commands...
[08:27] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, ok so if it works at localhost like that, its probably serving on internet too, so open up your firewall to let people from the outside in,
[08:27] <TEHchosenONE> how ?
[08:27] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, and then just put files that you want in the path for htdocs
[08:28] <TEHchosenONE> MrPrimate: how do i open my firewall
[08:28] <TEHchosenONE> on ubuntu
[08:28] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, I havent done apache on ubuntu, the files might go in /var somewhere
[08:28] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, you may not have a firewall, if you msg your IP to me i'll try from here,
[08:28] <Shinobii> MrPrimate: it doesn't delete all the things of openoffice, how to do that?
[08:28] <chewd> ok guys, just monkeying around with 7.10... got dual display working!! but the virtual desktop is larger than my screen res, its doing the old pan & scan routine.... how can i resize the virtual desktop?
[08:28] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, you might also need to set up your router to forward the port back to your machine
[08:28] <TEHchosenONE> i forwarded the port
[08:28] <murlidhar_> desktop effects is missing from control center also http://www.picturewizard.com/pic.asp?u=1324211/0/Screenshot-ControlCenter.png
[08:28] <murlidhar_> what do i do??
[08:29] <MrPrimate> Shinobii, try     sudo apt-get remove openoffice*
[08:29] <simplechat> hey, is there a valid .deb for envy around?
[08:29] <TEHchosenONE> MrPrimate: nobody can get in my webserver
[08:29] <MrPrimate> murlidhar_, perhaps your video card doesn't support it?
[08:29] <MrPrimate> murlidhar_, did it work oin the live cd ?
[08:30] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, you need to probably forward the port from your router back to your machine,
[08:30] <murlidhar_> MrPrimate: it was there i remember seeing it , yes it was working in livecd too
[08:30] <chewd> anybody know how i can resize the virtual desktop?
[08:30] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, are you connected to a wireless access point or other router before your modem ?
[08:30] <chewd> is it in a .conf somewhere?
[08:30] <Shinobii> MrPrimate, thx, got it working
[08:30] <TEHchosenONE> im connect dirrectly to the router via modem
[08:30] <TEHchosenONE> MrPrimate: ill send you my ip
[08:30] <MrPrimate> chewd, it used to be in /etc/X11/xf86config,   (maybe /etc/X11/xorg.conf)
[08:31] <MrPrimate> chewd, but i havent had vd in 10 years
[08:31] <MrPrimate> chewd, err.. that sounds bad
[08:31] <chewd> lol
[08:31] <TEHchosenONE> did you get the message
[08:31] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, your router probably has a configuration page at something like http://192.168.0.1/
[08:32] <chewd> is there some way to disable virtual desktop?
[08:32] <TEHchosenONE> its 192.168.1.1
[08:32] <chewd> that would be even better!
[08:32] <TEHchosenONE> i already forwarded my ports and i dont have a firewall
[08:32] <aldous> i already installed the broken package via synaptic manager, what should i do next?
[08:32] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, you must open a port or forward a port back to your machine (or turn on demilitarized zone if you have a local firewall or you're brave)
[08:32] <MrPrimate> chewd, you might search google on how to do that
[08:32] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, i didnt get your priv msg
[08:32] <Thirsteh> TEHchosenONE, 'sudo apt-get install firestarter' if you want an easy-to-use firewall GUI
[08:32] <chewd> ive been searching google
[08:32] <_SiLENT_> I'm not installing until I have internet in liveCD! :)
[08:32] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, what happens when you nmap your box from another box, do you see the port open ?
[08:33] <_SiLENT_> how do I set it up?
[08:33] <chewd> but if you put the words "virtual" & "desktop" into a search you get nothing relevant
[08:33] <TEHchosenONE> MrPrimate: i dont have another box :(
[08:33] <sashaman14> hey i'm kinda a nube and i got a quick ?   ........anyone wanna help?
[08:33] <chewd> mostly stuff about the desktop switcher
[08:33] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, pm your IP, i'll scan it and see if i get anything,
[08:34] <TEHchosenONE>  how do i send you it in a pm?
[08:34] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, i think the port forwarding probably isnt working, unless you have a software firewall, type   sudo iptables --list   to check
[08:34] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: I have IP addressing from my ISP, in windows I enter them in network connection->my ethernet card's connection, how do I connect in ubuntu livecd?
[08:34] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, if   sudo iptables --list   shows a bunch of stuff, you have a firewall,  if its only a few lines, probably not
[08:34] <boede> hi
[08:34] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, type  /msg MrPrimate [message] 
[08:34] <Thirsteh> _SiLENT_, Ubuntu LiveCD?
[08:34] <chewd> hey i think i found it!
[08:35] <_SiLENT_> in ubuntu the network card IS detected
[08:35] <TEHchosenONE> sudo iptables --list only gives me 3 lines
[08:35] <_SiLENT_> ye
[08:35] <_SiLENT_> ubuntu livecd
[08:35] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, the easy way is to click on the network icon on the top-right panel of the screen,  and go to Manual Configuration
[08:35] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, then go to Wired Connection and hit Properties
[08:35] <Thirsteh> _SiLENT_, you can set a manual IP in the configuration window. should be accessible from the top-right of your screen, an icon with a blinking monitor
[08:35] <D4N`> sup?
[08:36] <TEHchosenONE> did you get that
[08:36] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, same as System->Administration->Network
[08:36] <TEHchosenONE> ?
[08:36] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, no, i'll msg you
[08:36] <TEHchosenONE> ok
[08:36] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, you getting those ?
[08:36] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: how do I switch keyboard layout? it is russian always, tried ALTSHIFT, CTRLSHIFT, SHIFTSHIFT...
[08:36] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, System->Preferences->Keyboard->Layout,
[08:36] <TEHchosenONE> are you getting the messages imn sending you
[08:37] <TEHchosenONE> i got your messages
[08:37] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, nope, .. what irc client are you using ?
[08:37] <TEHchosenONE> gaim
[08:37] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: no shortcut like in windows?
[08:37] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, heheh... you might try xchat, .. afaik gaim irc client is kinda weak
[08:37] <sashaman14> hey guys, i just got ubuntu tonight, and 4 the past couple house and been wondering why is my resolution getting owned....the best its giving me its 8x6 when in windows its much better
[08:37] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, there may very well be one, but i dont know it
[08:37] <TEHchosenONE> ok hold on
[08:37] <sashaman14> hours*
[08:37] <_SiLENT_> ok, attempt #2
[08:37] <TEHchosenONE> how do i install it MrPrimate?
[08:38] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, if there's not, you could set one, you can set keyboard shortcuts to anything
[08:38] <TEHchosenONE> from terminal
[08:38] <ramvi> I have formated my new external hd as fat32 with gparted. But it doesn't pop up when i plug it in. How do I format it so that it pops up?
[08:38] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, sudo apt-get install xchat  or   sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome
[08:38] <chewd> hmmmm maybe not
[08:38] <chewd> arg
[08:38] <TEHchosenONE> the first one worked
[08:39] <MrPrimate> ramvi, it should come up automatically in ubuntu,... maybe look into automount and fstab
[08:39] <TEHchosenONE> MrPrimate:  are you using KDE or Gnome or Xfce
[08:39] <portablejim> MrPrimate: Why not aptitude instead of apt-get?
[08:39] <Curs0r> will gutsy mount or install aoe and/or iscsi targets with the installer/livecd?
[08:39] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, does your IP start with 7 and end with 4 ?  thats what irc says
[08:39] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, gnome
[08:39] <TEHchosenONE> yeah
[08:39] <MrPrimate> portablejim, i'm a console cowboy
[08:39] <bruenig> portablejim, http://pastebin.ca/653424
[08:39] <ramvi> MrPrimate: What dit shouldnt do doesnt help me :p but should I have it in fstab? Its not allways connected
[08:40] <sashaman14> first time one here.......how do i get help?????
[08:40] <bruenig> !justask
[08:40] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:40] <sashaman14> on^
[08:40] <sashaman14> okay thanx ubotu
[08:40] <bruenig> !sorry | sashaman14
[08:40] <ubotu> sashaman14: It's ok, I can't stay mad at you.
[08:41] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, your port forwarding -probably- isnt working, nmap shows no open ports on that IP
[08:41] <Yoric1> bruenig, you're a cruel, cruel person. Don't bait the newbs. : P
[08:41] <chewd> hmmm okay i think i found the relevant entry in xorg.conf   but the darn thing wont let me save
[08:41] <jduckett> Need help with apt-get install.  I am running Feisty Fawn on a clean install.  apt-get install lighttpd worked fine.  it installed lightTPD 1.4.13 and the latest release is 1.4.18.  How can I use apt-get to pickup the latest version lightTPD 1.4.18??
[08:41] <chibitk> hey all
[08:41] <TEHchosenONE> MrPrimate: i have port 88 open is that all
[08:41] <chibitk> does any1 use a dell laptop with an ati card here?
[08:41] <TEHchosenONE> MrPrimate: what else should i do i swear i forwarded those ports
[08:41] <chibitk> i have questions
[08:41] <TEHchosenONE> chibitk: whats your problem
[08:42] <TEHchosenONE> chibitk: does it go to black screen when you press install
[08:42] <sashaman14> its cool....so my resolution on ubuntu is much much worse then on windows...and i can't it to change it past 800x600
[08:42] <chibitk> im trying to run wow and i have 2 mouses and horrid looking graphx
[08:42] <bruenig> !fixres
[08:42] <ubotu> 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
[08:42] <MrPrimate> ramvi, try this,.. System->Preferences->Removable Drives and Media --- look around there for auto mounting options
[08:43] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, try installing a new video card driver for your card, you can probably get same or better resolution than windows
[08:43] <hrp2171> jduckett, the version you got is the one made available by the ubuntu repository for your version of Ubuntu.  if you want a different version, you have to download it directly from lighttpd website.
[08:43] <TEHchosenONE> chibitk: thats a hard game to run on linux i usualy get 7fps and i have a nice graphics card
[08:43] <chibitk> man i was runnin 45 on winblows
[08:43] <TEHchosenONE> MrPrimate: its not the driver he just needs to edit the xorg.conf file
[08:43] <MrPrimate> i've seen some apps that run quicker in wine than on windows itself, but thats the odd case
[08:44] <chibitk> theres no way to fix the mouse thing?
[08:44] <MrPrimate> you have to understand that wine is a complete replacement for a commercial closed-source operating system, and it's pretty impressive for that
[08:44] <TEHchosenONE> chibitk: whats the mouse problem
[08:44] <MrPrimate> i mean a complete library replacement anyways
[08:44] <hrp2171> chibitk, im running a dell latitude with an ati card but it's a business graphics chip
[08:44] <TEHchosenONE> MrPrimate: how do i setup the server i forwarded the ports and such nothing works its making me mad
[08:44] <chibitk> i have my linux mouse pointer and the wow one at the same time.....
[08:45] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, for sashaman14 isnt thre a command to reconfigure the xorg.conf for him more automatically ?
[08:45] <chibitk> o and the screen is transparent
[08:45] <TEHchosenONE> i dont play wow on linux
[08:45] <bruenig> !xconfig | MrPrimate
[08:45] <ubotu> MrPrimate: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[08:45] <TEHchosenONE> yeah
[08:45] <TEHchosenONE> thats the one
[08:45] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, you could try setting DMZ mode and install a software firewall on the computer,
[08:46] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, De-Militarized Zone basically forwards all traffic to the IP you specify
[08:46] <hrp2171> chibitk, what brand laptop do you have?
[08:46] <TEHchosenONE> what DMZ mode i dont have that on my router
[08:46] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, but that opens you up to problems if you have no software or other firewall
[08:46] <chibitk> dell inspiron 1501 256mb ati 2gb ddr2
[08:46] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, well something is up with your port forwarding, did you specify the current internal IP ?
[08:46] <jduckett> I know I can download and compile, however, will download and compile break apt-get package management??
[08:46] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, check ipconfig to make sure your IP is not changed since you set up port forwarding
[08:46] <TEHchosenONE> how do i check what my current internal ip is
[08:46] <TEHchosenONE> and how can i make it static
[08:46] <hrp2171> chibitk, running wow thru wine?

[08:47] <TEHchosenONE> lol thats the one that works for me
[08:47] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, or   ifconfig [device] ,  like     ifconfig eth0
[08:48] <TEHchosenONE> ok
[08:48] <TEHchosenONE> is it the inet one?
[08:48] <hrp2171> im a gamer and ive given up on trying to run any games with wine or otherwise in linux.  i'm waiting for the other shoe to drop  before i do a complete switchover.
[08:48] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, to set a static ip you can edit /etc/network/interfaces , with the right syntax
[08:48] <MrPrimate> yeah inet addr
[08:48] <MrPrimate> hrp2171, my game runs in linux,... its java tho ;] 
[08:48] <TEHchosenONE> its the ip i have listen on my router

[08:49] <zetheroo> what should I do about this:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38991/
[08:49] <paranoid_ndroid> lol
[08:50] <MrPrimate> TEHchosenONE, im a bit worn out to help you further, but i will recommend a way you can try to check things if you're adventurous...
[08:50] <hrp2171> administrator?
[08:50] <TEHchosenONE> thats me
[08:50] <TEHchosenONE> sorry
[08:51] <zetheroo> anyone?
[08:51] <MoNsTeR> im on Xchat now
[08:52] <portablejim> How do I not use a separate partition for /home? Do I unmount home, take it out of fstab, mount the partition again and copy (or move) the contents of the partition to /home? (Just checking).
[08:52] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR = tehchoosenone?
[08:52] <MoNsTeR> its me TEHchoosenONE
[08:52] <MoNsTeR> yeah MrPrimate
[08:52] <zetheroo> please help
[08:52] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, what program are you trying to install ?
[08:52] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, you want to get new signatures, either for all of ubuntu or for that program
[08:52] <vanchu> how do I add library files to wine ?
[08:52] <ectospasm> portablejim:  if /home isn't on it's own partition, it's not in fstab
[08:53] <MrPrimate> vanchu, put the dlls in their respective location, or run installer from inside wine
[08:53] <marc__> could someone let me know what the command is a... something to activate usermod in apache
[08:53] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: I do sudo apt-get update.... and I get that error
[08:53] <marc__> apache2
[08:53] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: I just want my machien to work... sigh
[08:53] <portablejim> at the moment it is. I want it not to be.
[08:53] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, , if you think its apache broken, and your port forward IS working, run netcat -l -p [port]  to open netcat to listen on a port, if that port is forwarded, you can try to contact it from the outside
[08:54] <kahrytan> zetheroo, what error
[08:54] <MoNsTeR> ok
[08:54] <MoNsTeR> im going to try that
[08:54] <MrPrimate> portablejim, i just moved /usr to its own partition, just copied the stuff recursively with permissions, made a mount point and added to fstab
[08:54] <zetheroo> kahrytan: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38991/
[08:54] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, i get bash command fails
[08:55] <kahrytan> zetheroo, so you need to reinstall the pg key
[08:55] <zetheroo> kahrytan: I dunno... I just need help.... pleeeease
[08:55] <portablejim> Was my procedure correct for moving the home partition (not root partition) to the root partition?
[08:56] <sashaman14> to fix my resolution prob....do i need to buy some hardware or is there something i can download?
[08:56] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, i can help you
[08:56] <sashaman14> sweet thanx monster, my problem is that my resolution is much worse then its on windows
[08:56] <marc__> usrmodule enabling command anyone/
[08:56] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, just type in terminal sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:56] <zetheroo> kahrytan: any ideas?
[08:56] <bruenig> !fixres | sashaman14 pay attention to me
[08:57] <ubotu> sashaman14 pay attention to me: 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
[08:57] <sashaman14> bruenig, i did that earlier
[08:57] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, i can help you through the steps ok?
[08:57] <xen_> hey i hate to be a pain but i really feel i should have to ask this,  when i install a program(whatever it is), and i make a mistake in setting something up, i uninstall the program, but it leaves alot of crap behind, so when i reinstall it, its using the previous settings from the last install, how do i acutally completely remove a program?????
[08:57] <xen_> its driving me bloody mad
[08:57] <sashaman14> thnx monster
[08:57] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, it sounds like you added something to your apt sources.list and it doesnt have signatures,
[08:57] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, if that's the case, you download signatures and then  gpg --import [sigfile] 
[08:58] <Jowi> xen_, sudo apt-get remove --purge program
[08:58] <xen_> ahh ok thanks
[08:58] <Jowi> xen_, --purge get rid of the config files
[08:58] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, theres a fix for his problem on google i had to do the same fix
[08:58] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: where do I get keys ? and what keys do I get?
[08:59] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, did you run the command
[08:59] <sashaman14> ok did tht monster,
[08:59] <sashaman14> shoudl i say yes
[08:59] <sashaman14> autodetect
[08:59] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, it depends, did you add something to your sources.list ?
[08:59] <sashaman14> ?
[08:59] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, say yes
[08:59] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: I was folowing a WINE how-to.... and then everything got stuffed up
[08:59] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, just press enter until you get to screen resolution screen
[09:00] <kahrytan> zetheroo, you try reinstall aptitude?
[09:00] <xen_> sorry, when you said --purge config files, how do i know what config files exactly to use?
[09:00] <bruenig> xen_, what do you mean?
[09:00] <sashaman14> monster, hit enter couple of times
[09:01] <zetheroo> kahrytan: no... I just want that error to stop popping up when I do sudo apt-get update
[09:01] <kahrytan> zetheroo, you can download packages from http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/
[09:01] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, did you get to the resolution screen
[09:01] <xen_> well i tried the sudo apt-get remove --- purge 'program', but the files are still left behind
[09:01] <xen_> so when i reinstall that program
[09:01] <zetheroo> kahrytan: so you dunno how to fix this error?
[09:02] <xen_> its using the files as the settings that were left behind
[09:02] <sashaman14> monster, no i am on a screen where it gives me an example of isa pci and sbus
[09:02] <paranoid_ndroid> Western Digital Caviar SE16 750GB 3.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s - OEM for just $199.99 on newegg. Is this for real?
[09:02] <xen_> for example, mysql or apache or snort
[09:02] <bruenig> xen_, it purges configuration files in /etc, not files made dynamically by the app itself in home
[09:02] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, temp fix is to run apt-get using --allow-unauthenticated to ignore the errors
[09:02] <MoNsTeR> xen_, have you at all tried using http://google.com as a resort to your problem
[09:02] <bruenig> !jfgi | MoNsTeR
[09:02] <ubotu> MoNsTeR: Acronyms or statements like  noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[09:02] <marc__> excuse me, after further research I have discovered usermod is defunt and need to know how to enable userdir, anyone know how to do it, thanks in advance
[09:02] <schnoonix> hello, should ubuntu pick up sata drives by default
[09:03] <schnoonix> because i want to install it, but it cant seem to find my partioned sata drive :(
[09:03] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, yes
[09:03] <xen_> monster.... this channel is for ubuntu help, thats why im here ;)
[09:03] <MoNsTeR> bruenig, never used any of this
[09:03] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: I am SOOOOO mad at that silly WINE How-To...... Is there no fix for this?
[09:03] <bruenig> MoNsTeR, you just used jfgi
[09:03] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, paste the url for it
[09:03] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, ill look at the howto and see if i can figure out what happened
[09:03] <zetheroo> http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[09:03] <kahrytan> zetheroo, what wine howto
[09:03] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, sata drives should work as /dev/sdX
[09:03] <MoNsTeR> bruenig, i get it the f stands for F***
[09:04] <Jowi> xen_, if you use --purge for apache it should get rid of it all. you also have the possibility to "dpkg-reconfigure package"
[09:04] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, that's /dev/sda, etc
[09:04] <zetheroo> kahrytan: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[09:04] <bruenig> MoNsTeR, when someone asks something don't be an ass and say, have you tried looking for the answer on http://google.com
[09:04] <vanchu> I cant find the .wine dir when I do a search
[09:04] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, did you run   wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[09:04] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, that's the line from the FAQ that installs the keys
[09:04] <xen_> ok thanks jowi, ill see how it go's
[09:04] <vanchu> and it wont let me paste the dll in the console
[09:04] <vanchu> *wine app
[09:04] <MoNsTeR> im not trying to be mean okay i just thought he should look there first
[09:05] <schnoonix> MrPrimate: is ther e a way to see if its mounted ?
[09:05] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: yes... I did it all about 12 times over
[09:05] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, ok, so just remove the line from /etc/apt/sources.list that you added,
[09:05] <theshadow> Whats the easiest way to update to the latest ATI driver?
[09:05] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14,  press the right key and press enter to go to the next screen
[09:05] <schnoonix> there isnt any 'sdX' drives in  /dev/ so it didnt seem to mount it :\
[09:05] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, delete the lines that have 'wine' in them from the bottom of /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:05] <MoNsTeR> theshadow, whats your problem with ati driver
[09:05] <xen_> google is one resource yes, but the ubuntu irc channel is another, and much better imo ;)
[09:05] <MoNsTeR> theshadow, why do you need to update
[09:05] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, you don't have a /dev/sda ?
[09:05] <theshadow> MoNsTeR: nothing I just want to move from the older one to the new one thats supposedly "better"
[09:06] <schnoonix> MrPrimate: no i dont
[09:06] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, sudo fdisk /dev/sda ?
[09:06] <twoshadetod> what is an easy way to download a website?
[09:06] <schnoonix> Unable to open /dev/sda
[09:06] <Jowi> google can be a pain. it's got so much noise.
[09:06] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, it might make your hard drive a /dev/hda or etc if isata is turned off on the mobo cmos
[09:06] <theshadow> twoshadetod: you may want to look into wget
[09:06] <kahrytan> twoshadetod, firefox extention?
[09:07] <MoNsTeR> xen_, sorry if i came off rude im really a nice guy looking for help myself and always before coming here i search google so i dont have to ask a million timnes in here for no answer
[09:07] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: the thing is that I did not add any line to the sources.list file..... supposedly it was done by inserting that second command from the How-to.... but it actually did not work and instead there appeared some extra entries in the Software Sources area in the System>Authentication area......
[09:07] <sashaman14> monster, "Use kernel framebuffer device interface?" yes or no
[09:07] <twoshadetod> ff extension would be prime if that is available, im a newb and i hate reading through mans if i dont have to
[09:07] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, no
[09:07] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, it automatically added lines
[09:07] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: yes.... but not in the sources.list file.... i dunno where?!?
[09:07] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, you can edit them in that Software Sources, turn off all of the lines that say 'wine' in them
[09:08] <schnoonix> MrPrimate: there is no hda either, there is a hdc but its not a folder
[09:08] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: already did that
[09:08] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, and is your problem solved?
[09:08] <portablejim> twoshadetod: I have seen the ability for recursive download in both D4x and Aria. This would download the website for you.
[09:08] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: no
[09:08] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, the /dev/hdc is not a folder, its a device reference,
[09:08] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, when you get to screen resolution you have to press the space bar to select a res select the res "1280x1024"
[09:08] <Yoric1> schnoonix: If it was a folder, I'd be very, very worried.
[09:08] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, to mount it you would type something like mount /dev/hdc /mnt  to mount it to the folder /mnt
[09:09] <sashaman14> monster, will do
[09:09] <MoNsTeR> and you will have good resolution just after that reboot
[09:09] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, and you will have good resolution just after that reboot
[09:09] <MoNsTeR> !repeat
[09:09] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[09:09] <MoNsTeR> i had to do that to myself
[09:09] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, you might have to switch to that better resolution after you reboot, unless its the only one you pick
[09:09] <twoshadetod> portablejim, thanks alot i think this might be exactly what I needed.  theshadow,kahrytan thanks also for the suggestions
[09:10] <schnoonix> i think /hdc/ was the cd-rom because i did a ls /mnt/ and it just shows the cd files
[09:10] <kahrytan> MrPrimate, maybe he needs trusted.gpg replaced?
[09:10] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: my sources list --  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38992/
[09:10] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, so perhaps the device isnt showing up, is sata enabled and showing up on the bios ?
[09:10] <portablejim> your welcome twoshadetod.
[09:10] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, so i take it you're still getting the gpg error ?
[09:10] <zetheroo> yes
[09:10] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, sata should always show up
[09:10] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, take out the launchpad lines
[09:10] <gld_> Hey guys, My update manager has just shown up for a second time in 5 minutes, this particular time it wants to update wine, but when I clicked update it warned me that "You are about to install software that can't be authenticated! Doing this could allow a malicious individual to damage or take control of your system". Should this be happening? It's never warned me of a wine update before...
[09:10] <kahrytan> twoshadetod, gwget package might be worth looking at. it's a gui to wget
[09:11] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, comment out or remove those launchpad lines and that might do it
[09:11] <schnoonix> MrPrimate:  yes as i can get into windows. I had to disconnet my IDE though, becuse when i had my IDE enabled it would show IDE but not SATA
[09:11] <MongooseWA> can anyone help me add a launcher for photoshop through wine in avant window navigator?
[09:11] <sashaman14> MrPrimate, monster, i am on the resolution screen and they have multiple resolutions with the red box on 1920x1440, what to do
[09:11] <momal> Hey, can anyone who has set up 5.1 with k/ubuntu help me out. I have a set of logitech 5.1 speakers they all work but the center speaker(front)  I set kaffine/amarok to use xine,alsa,5.1 surround. Kmix and alsamixer seem to be all set correctly 6channel, everything there full volume. The cables+speaker do work fine (tested that already) I am using on board sound card "Nvidia CK804, Realtek ALC850"
[09:12] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: no still getting that error
[09:12] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, what do you mean multiple resolutions?  pick the res that you want to have as options in X, space toggles them
[09:12] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, did you apt-get update ?
[09:12] <MrPrimate> zetheroo, apt-get update after that
[09:12] <MoNsTeR> selectr resolution by pressing space bar and select the resolution 1280x1024
[09:12] <zetheroo> MrPrimate: yes... i alwasy do
[09:12] <Curs0r> is a chroot prepped with debootstrap enough for a livecd?
[09:12] <schnoonix> zetheroo: , any more idea's ?
[09:12] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, select resolution by pressing space bar and select the resolution 1280x1024
[09:12] <Juggie> is there a reason synaptic sees more packages then 'add remove'
[09:13] <sashaman14> monster, got it...

[09:13] <marc__> what is the permissions needed on public_html?
[09:13] <MoNsTeR> zetheroo, do you have anything important on ubuntu , otherwise if you dont you should just start clean
[09:13] <MrPrimate> ramvi, mine automatically does ,.. does it comeup under Places menu ?
[09:13] <MrPrimate> ramvi, did you check System->Preferences->Removable Drives and Media
[09:13] <ramvi> MrPrimate, mine doesnt for some reason
[09:13] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, can you help me now
[09:13] <zetheroo> MoNsTeR : HA.... I have everything on this machine......
[09:13] <ramvi> Curs0r, but isnt fstab just run when I start the computer?
[09:14] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, kill apache and run    sudo netcat -l -p 80
[09:14] <Curs0r> ramvi, oh, I thought that's what you meant nvm
[09:14] <MoNsTeR> how do i kill apache
[09:14] <MoNsTeR> jw?
[09:14] <sistom> how come when I click a link in IRC it just opens Opera with the last webpage I was looking at and not the link I clicked?
[09:14] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, /etc/init.d/apache2 stop   OR   apachectl stop
[09:15] <ubuntuuser123> hi, i have a question
[09:15] <MrPrimate> sistom, you could change the default browser to open from client maybe
[09:15] <Juggie> is there a reason synaptic sees more packages then 'add remove'
[09:15] <zetheroo> MrPrimate  : is there a way to get rid of all the keys and get a fresh set installed?
[09:15] <xen_> apache2 -k stop
[09:15] <ubuntuuser123> i want to know how i can save stuff to windows partitions
[09:15] <ubuntuuser123> is there any software for ubuntu i could use for that?
[09:15] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, that netcat will listen on port 80 and you can see if problem is apache or your router/portforwarding/firewall/etc
[09:15] <preaction> ubuntuuser123, ntfs or fat32?

[09:19] <GamingX> Hello guys, I just installed Fedora along with Ubuntu and also have Windows XP,the problem is I don't see Fedora's entry in the grub...How do I add it?
[09:19] <pramur> I'm using Kubuntu Feisty, Knetwork manager.. my /etc/resolv.conf usually changes when I get connected to an AP (hotspot) and changes my ath0's profile. So, if I want to change the profile for my eth0 I have to edit the setting, and restart the network by typing /etc/init.d/network restart.. How do I just got it done automatically?
[09:19] <MrPrimate> GamingX, you edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, ... look up in google
[09:19] <MoNsTeR> i ran that sudo netcat -l -p 80 and nothing popped up
[09:19] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, nothing should pop up, its just listening,
[09:19] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, is it sitting there waiting for connection ?
[09:20] <GamingX> MrPrimate: I know the method, but I don't know the partition on which it is installed, how do I check this?
[09:20] <MoNsTeR> idk
[09:20] <zetheroo> how can I re-install the GPG keys for the Ubuntu Feisty repo?
[09:20] <Jowi> !grub | GamingX (strange that it didn't autodetect fedora)
[09:20] <ubotu> GamingX (strange that it didn't autodetect fedora): 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
[09:20] <MoNsTeR> after i press enter nothing happend MrPrimate
[09:20] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, you can tell its working if you telnet localhost 80  and it connects (nothing will appear, but it will stay connected)
[09:20] <r00tintheb0x> Hi all
[09:20] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, nothing will appear, if you type from telnet it should appear in the netcat console though
[09:20] <GamingX> Jowi: I manually did that (foolish of me)....
[09:20] <MoNsTeR> gosh im such a noob how do i telnet
[09:20] <topspin> GamingX: grub uses a file called /boot/grub/menu.lst: you're probably using the file provided in your Ubuntu installation, thus no Fedora.  The file can list both, however.
[09:21] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, type   telnet localhost 80     from another console
[09:21] <pramur> MoNsTeR: I think it just listening..
[09:21] <GamingX> topspin: I know that, but the question is how do I add the entry?
[09:21] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, i'm not able to connect to that port from over here on your IP
[09:21] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, did you see a firewall when you ran      sudo iptables --list        ?
[09:21] <MoNsTeR> no i didnt MrPrimate
[09:22] <schnoonix> ey MrPrimate what was that function you told me again to mount it was like sudo ? /dev/hda /mnt
[09:22] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, it connected to it
[09:22] <Jowi> GamingX, yeah. hmmm. well the first link ubotu gave says "windows recovery" but it contain alot of useful info, for example how to see the partitions with fdisk -l and how to make grub recheck.
[09:22] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, ok its most likely your router's firewall or port forwarding,
[09:22] <MoNsTeR> router doesnt have a firewall MrPrimate
[09:22] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, because you can connect locally, so netcat is up and runningon port 80, but we cant connect from outside and you have no soft firewall
[09:22] <topspin> GamingX: text editor is the most straightforward method of maintaining menu.lst
[09:22] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, router isnt routing the packets back to your box
[09:22] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, you could prove this to yourself if you want, do this:
[09:23] <GamingX> topspin: I know how to add the entry, but I don't know what partition Fedora is located on...
[09:23] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, did it work?
[09:23] <Jowi> GamingX, sudo fdisk -l
[09:23] <sashaman14> monster, well i think toooooo goood
[09:23] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, why?
[09:23] <topspin> GamingX: cat /proc/partitions may provide a hint
[09:24] <sashaman14> monster, i think it gave me higher then 1280xand whatever we put.....
[09:24] <sashaman14> monster, i see 4/5 of my screen
[09:24] <sashaman14> monster, great resolution thou!
[09:24] <MoNsTeR> 1280x1024
[09:24] <sashaman14> monster, can you type back the stuff to put in terminal
[09:24] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, now do you have a auto button on your monitor?
[09:24] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, if so press it
[09:24] <sashaman14> monster, stupid gateway laptop
[09:24] <_ali> In kmai, while attaching an image from clipboard into new email, the image always appears at the bottom of the message although I past it at the top. How to overcome this problem?
[09:25] <sashaman14> monster, dont think so....
[09:25] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, im not sure then
[09:25] <GamingX> Anyway to record this conversation on mirc, because I am on XP and need to change to Ubuntu...
[09:25] <sashaman14> monster, wats the stuff i am sopposed to type in terminal
[09:25] <sashaman14> monster, i will do it again
[09:25] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, sudo tcpdump -i eth0 src port 80
[09:25] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, to reconfigure your settings again
[09:26] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, this will have tcpdump show you packets coming to port 80,  maybe you want dst port 80 actually,
[09:26] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, then you can see if anything from the outside gets in
[09:26] <sashaman14> monster, yes
[09:26] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, i'm 99% sure that you have a problem with packets getting from internet -> through your router -> to your box  on port 80
[09:26] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, just type in terminal sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:27] <andruk> is there an alternative to alcohol (the software for mounting isos, not the beverage)
[09:27] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, your router probably allows you to establish outgoing connections, and establishes sessions so packets can get back in, but it doesnt forward packets hitting your outside IP address to port 80 back to your internal computer's ip
[09:27] <justinhe> hello everyone , i got puzzled ,could anyone tell me which mainboard can support AMD Lancaster mobile CPU ? i need you help indeed
[09:27] <justinhe> thanks
[09:27] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, so what ommand do i use
[09:27] <MrPrimate> andruk, you can mount ISO files in linux with mount
[09:27] <andruk> MrPrimate: cool, thx
[09:27] <sashaman14> monster, wats the res again?....sorry
[09:28] <MrPrimate> andruk, http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic483.html
[09:28] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, 1280x1024
[09:28] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, so i run sudo tcpdump -i eth0 src port 80
[09:28] <dp`Nihilism`[FL] > anyone here who knows about getting PCMCIA wireless cards working in ubuntu?
[09:29] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, how do i show you what it showed
[09:29] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, thats going to show all the packets going to port 80, you might want to skip the 'src' part or use dst instead
[09:29] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, it shows them right on the terminal whenever packets try to hit port 80,
[09:29] <ectospasm> dp`Nihilism`[FL] :  I got a wifi card working... I did not use ndiswrapper at all
[09:29] <GamingX> I got this from the Fedora Forums, title Fedora

[09:29] <MoNsTeR> how do i know
[09:29] <GamingX> what does that hdx,x  mean?
[09:30] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, how do i know that they are hitting it
[09:30] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, nothing is happening
[09:30] <Gezno> Where is terminal? =D
[09:30] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, i'm tryting to hit port 80 at your outside IP right now
[09:30] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, A BUNCH OF THINGS POPPED UP
[09:30] <randoman> i guys, I have a problem. I have compiz enabled. When i start the computer for the first time and boot into gnome. Everything works fine. But once I restart X and log back into gnome with compiz or compositing enabled in general. gnome becomes really unstable. It doesnt allow me to view any windows or even type into this xchat window. This only happens when i restart X, with compositing enabled. Im in Ubuntu 7.04 with intel drivers.
[09:30] <MoNsTeR> sorry for caps
[09:30] <dp`Nihilism`[FL] > Genzo, are you using Gnome or KDE?
[09:30] <randoman> I was currently using this for 2 months previously, untill last night. I though my system files got messed up so I reinstalled ubuntu, and its still acting up. Anyideas?
[09:30] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, oh,.. is it coming from my IP or is it just you using websites ?
[09:31] <Gezno> Gnome.
[09:31] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, i'm awfully tired i dunno if i can help you anymore, i really keep telling you i think its your router and you need to get the port forwarded properly
[09:31] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, we're on a wild goose hunt at this point
[09:31] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, it came from your ip
[09:31] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, really ?
[09:31] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, yeah
[09:32] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, in that case, .. interesting...
[09:32] <MoNsTeR> whats your ip? MrPrimate
[09:32] <GamingX> In the menu.1st, in the line |root hdx,x| what does the x signify, that is what I don't know?
[09:32] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, type /dns MrPrimate
[09:32] <sashaman14> monster, can see my restart button on top right screen.........any where else to press it
[09:32] <sashaman14> monster, nm
[09:32] <sashaman14> monster, found it
[09:32] <justinhe> could anybody help me ?
[09:32] <MrPrimate> GamingX, hdx,x is   drive x, partition x
[09:32] <MrPrimate> GamingX, hd0,0 is drive 0 partition 0
[09:32] <GamingX> MrPrimate: Any way to find out what it is?
[09:33] <MrPrimate> GamingX, so /dev/sda4 might be hd0,3
[09:33] <GamingX> MrPrimate: Any way to find out what it is on Fedora?
[09:33] <MrPrimate> GamingX, (3 because we start counting from 0 instead of 1 )
[09:33] <_MattB> i have a cron.hourly script that failed, is there a log available?
[09:33] <MoNsTeR> nope it was a website :(
[09:33] <MrPrimate> GamingX, you can see the partitions you have by typing cat /proc/partitions
[09:33] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, it was a stupid website
[09:33] <GamingX> does it also show Fedora partition?
[09:33] <nomaS> !kiba-dock
[09:33] <schnoonix> anyone know why ubuntu might not be picking up my SATA drive ?
[09:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiba-dock - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:33] <MrPrimate> GamingX, yes, just look at the end line NAME, ignore the minor major stuff
[09:33] <nomaS> !kibadock
[09:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kibadock - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:34] <MrPrimate> GamingX, you can also type mount to see mounted partitions
[09:34] <GamingX> ok thanks, I'll check it out....
[09:34] <dp`Nihilism`[FL] > Does anyone know about getting PCMCIA wireless cards working in Ubuntu?
[09:34] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, are you using KDE ,Xfce or Gnome
[09:34] <MrPrimate> GamingX, try something like    sudo fdisk /dev/sda    and hit  'p'    to print partition list another way
[09:34] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, i'm using gnome
[09:34] <topspin> GamingX: /proc/partition should list all partions visible to the kernel.  it will not, however, tell you which is your Fedora root...  you'll have to puzzle that out.
[09:35] <gld_>  Hey guys, My update manager has just shown up for a second time in 5 minutes, this particular time it wants to update wine, but when I clicked update it warned me that "You are about to install software that can't be authenticated! Doing this could allow a malicious individual to damage or take control of your system". Should this be happening? It's never warned me of a wine update before...
[09:35] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, kool me too i wanna use KDE with XGL but idk how too
[09:35] <GamingX> Can I save this conversation using mirc?
[09:35] <MrPrimate> gld_, you probably dont have the wine sigs
[09:35] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, sincei cant make a webserver why not make a ftp server
[09:35] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, i havent tried kde in years, i'll have to check it out and see how they're doing
[09:36] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, its really nice
[09:36] <gld_> MrPrimate, I've updated several times before and it has never complained before
[09:36] <MrPrimate> i didnt used to use kde because i like gnu and didnt like that whole trolltech qt deal that had trouble with
[09:36] <Gezno> With what windows emulator i can play wow?
[09:36] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, if you're sure that you saw my packets coming in , then i cant understand why i cant connect to your netcat listening on port 80
[09:37] <frostburn> !wow | Gezno
[09:37] <ubotu> Gezno: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[09:37] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, it was a website :(
[09:37] <MrPrimate> Gezno, people are reporting that WoW runs slowly in WINE (wine is not an emulator)
[09:37] <gld_> @ Genzo, Cedega or wine, cedega you have to pay for though, but it is the better program
[09:37] <Lilacor> I upgraded to 7.10 and now my SMP box is not SMP...what do I need to do to change it *back* to SMP?
[09:37] <preaction> !gutsy | Lilacor
[09:37] <ubotu> Lilacor: 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
[09:37] <Lilacor> doh!
[09:37] <Gezno> ok, thanks.
[09:38] <schnoonix> anyone had problems with ubuntu and not picking up sata drives ?
[09:38] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, do you have a funky sata controller? is it onboard or addon ?
[09:39] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, so how do i make a ftp server
[09:39] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5472
[09:39] <sistom> where does firestarter install itself to? I can't find any shortcuts for me to reopen it
[09:39] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR,  search apt-cache for ftpd, there are a lot to choose from
[09:39] <_MattB> sorry for asking again, i think it got missed, does cron have a log for cron.hourly scripts?
[09:39] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, but if we can't get packets in to port 80,
[09:40] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, hey, wait a minute, maybe your ISP blocks running servers on port 80 ?
[09:40] <MoNsTeR> i have port 88 open not port 80
[09:40] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, do you think we should try to run your web server on a diff. port, ?
[09:40] <sistom> anyone?
[09:40] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, oh well how the f did you expect me to touch your 80 if you're on 88 forwarded ?
[09:40] <gld_> sistom, System, Administration
[09:40] <decay> A long time ago, I did something that allowed me to add my own option when i right click something. Anyone know what that's called and how i did it?
[09:40] <sashaman14> monster, almost there........great resolution. .....see everything from left to right....but my bottom toolbar gets cut off :(
[09:41] <sistom> sorry
[09:41] <sashaman14> monster, what should i change my resolution too......?
[09:41] <sistom> I could have sworn it wasn't there
[09:41] <Gezno> where is the terminal?  :D
[09:41] <MrPrimate> decay, you can add programs to open something with on right-click,
[09:41] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, whats the first part of the res at
[09:41] <MrPrimate> decay, you just right-click, properties, Open With
[09:41] <gld_> sistom, not a problem, took me a while to find it myself
[09:41] <MoNsTeR> then ill tell you what to do with the second one
[09:41] <MrPrimate> decay, it will always list the program as an option to open with
[09:42] <decay> MrPrimate, no that's not what i mean. =(
[09:42] <sashaman14> monster, 1280x1024
[09:42] <Nihilism`> Does anyone know about getting PCMCIA wireless cards working in Ubuntu?
[09:42] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, i have both 80 and 88 open what port should i run my server on besides 80
[09:42] <MrPrimate> decay, you added options like    'Edit'  and it did whatever you specified ?
[09:42] <decay> MrPrimate, for example, if i right click inside a folder, i have an option "Open terminal here", that i added myself. and put an icon in front of the option
[09:42] <Gezno> where is the terminal? i have gnome :p
[09:42] <decay> MrPrimate, yes
[09:42] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, use 1280x768
[09:43] <MrPrimate> decay, i've done that before too, i cant remember, but something similar is like:
[09:43] <sashaman14> monster, wat about 1280x800
[09:43] <_SiLENT_> I can't believe this Ubuntu is MUCH slow than windows????
[09:43] <MoNsTeR> if thats there
[09:43] <_SiLENT_> *slower
[09:43] <gld_> Genzo, Applications, Accessories, Terminal
[09:43] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, i think 768 or 800 should be fine
[09:43] <MrPrimate> decay, rightclick>properties>open with> Use a custom command >   type command like     xterm %1
[09:43] <MrPrimate> decay, where %1 represents the file
[09:44] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, what port should i run my server on
[09:44] <schnoonix> MrPrimate, so you think i should click the normal option for the SATA drive, will that make my IDE's and SATA's both appear, it seems like ALOT of people have this same problem.
[09:44] <Gezno> k.
[09:44] <MoNsTeR> schnoonix, yeah do that
[09:44] <sashaman14> monster, you are right....tried 800, didnt work.............tried 768 and SUCCESS!!!
[09:44] <schnoonix> ok ill try it out now see if it works, will that effect my windows though if i do that ?
[09:45] <decay> MrPrimate, but i can't edit the command, thats the problem. I forgot how to get to it.
[09:45] <MrPrimate> decay, i just added   gnome-terminal --working-directory=%1   to open the folder with that terminal
[09:45] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, guess how long ive been using linux and ive already helped somebody and got beryl to work with my ati radeon 9550 card witch is almost impossible
[09:45] <sashaman14> monster, thank you very much

[09:48] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, but if you think thats blocked by your isp for some reason use whatever port that you want that's not being used, often high ports above 1024 are available
[09:48] <jak0lyte> thanks in advance
[09:48] <sistom> I have edited all of my sshd banners and motd files but if I telnet to my ssh port I still see: SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_4.3p2 Debian-8ubuntu1

[09:48] <sistom> any way to get rid of that?
[09:48] <curtis_> i get an error : E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[09:49] <curtis_> MrPrimate:  i previously shutdown the pc while updating so i guess thts wht caused it
[09:49] <MrPrimate> sistom, you shouldnt telnet to an ssh port, you should ssh to it
[09:49] <MoNsTeR> ill ask them
[09:49] <sistom> I know I know
[09:49] <jak0lyte> for the info mr monster, im a complete newbie with ubuntu
[09:49] <MrPrimate> curtis_, try apt-get -f update
[09:49] <curtis_> k just a sec
[09:49] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate, can u help me please
[09:49] <MrPrimate> curtis_, sudo apt-get -f update
[09:49] <sistom> but, banner grabbing scanners do that to attempt to identify what verison you are running
[09:49] <Curs0r> huh, building gutsy in a chroot almost gives one a gentoo feeling without all the compile time

[09:49] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, whats the problem ?

[09:49] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, you said something about nvidia drive you installed, doesnt work ?
[09:50] <ubuntusoundc> can someone help me with a line-in / mic question
[09:50] <Curs0r> !jack
[09:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jack - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:50] <Curs0r> it doesn't know jack? lol
[09:50] <MrPrimate> summer_s4, gutsy has gnome 2.20 i think
[09:50] <summer_s4> people do sudo apt-get moo
[09:50] <jak0lyte> ?
[09:50] <ubuntusoundc> where do i find it under /dev if using alsa?
[09:51] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate, I choose enable drive each time, but it asks the same after restarting
[09:51] <summer_s4> mrprimate: no.  It has 2.19.91
[09:51] <_SiLENT_> *driver
[09:51] <sistom> any idea MrPrimate?
[09:51] <curtis_> MrPrimate:
[09:51] <curtis_> Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty-security/restricted/binary-i386/Packages.gz  Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[09:51] <curtis_> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[09:51] <curtis_> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[09:51] <Curs0r> summer_s4, 2.20 just blew by in console
[09:51] <MrPrimate> ubuntusoundc, i believe your sound goes to /dev/dsp or dsp something or ?
[09:51] <MoNsTeR> jak0lyte, i cant find anything for e-books sorry
[09:51] <_SiLENT_> and the display is awfully slow
[09:52] <momal> curtis_: check and see if a dead apt-get or something is running
[09:52] <ubuntusoundc> ok, thought that was null, ok, i'll try dsp
[09:52] <MrPrimate> ubuntusoundc, but you dont access that like a normal file or anything u know
[09:52] <summer_s4> cursor: can you elaborate?
[09:52] <MrPrimate> ubuntusoundc, what are you trying to do more specifically ?
[09:52] <ubuntusoundc> yes, i am trying to stream audio
[09:52] <Curs0r> summer_s4, I'm installing gnome for gutsy in a chroot right now
[09:52] <MrPrimate> sistom, about your sshd thing ?
[09:52] <curtis_> momal:  how can i do so plz!
[09:52] <ubuntusoundc> and need the device to map the software to
[09:52] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, how do i setup a ftp server?
[09:52] <sistom> yes.
[09:52] <_SiLENT_> help someone :(
[09:53] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, find a tutorial on google
[09:53] <momal> curtis_: ps aux | grep apt
[09:53] <Curs0r> summer_s4, it says 2.20
[09:53] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, dude i look on google all day for this stuff
[09:53] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, you installed the driver, is it using it?  check /etc/X11/xorg.conf to see what driver is being used
[09:53] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, it says like    Driver nvidia       or  Driver vesa
[09:53] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, thats why i come here for answer
[09:53] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, if you're using Driver vesa no wonder its slow
[09:53] <curtis_> momal:  ps aux | grep apt
[09:54] <curtis_> momal:  13373  0.0  0.2   2880   748 pts/0    R+   10:53   0:00 grep apt
[09:54] <_SiLENT_> how do I check /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[09:54] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, install an ftpd program like pure-ftpd or wu-ftpd
[09:54] <MoNsTeR> ok
[09:54] <summer_s4> how do i install virtual box
[09:54] <Curs0r> fortune|espeak is hilarious
[09:54] <MoNsTeR> _SiLENT_, are you usi8ng a ati card
[09:54] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, a quick way is to type   grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:54] <momal> summer_s4: sudo apt-get install virtualbox
[09:54] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, it will say a bunch of lines for driver for hardware, the last one probably being your video
[09:54] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, paste the last Driver line it says here or let us know
[09:55] <_SiLENT_> where do I type that!
[09:55] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, then you need to make sure you forward port 21 back to your machine like you did for 88
[09:55] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, 21 is default ftp port
[09:55] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, into a terminal
[09:55] <curtis_> momal:  any advice?!
[09:55] <MoNsTeR> i did
[09:55] <momal> curtis: umm... if none is running then not sure. make sure the package manager under gnome isn't running (look on your desktop) other then that not sure
[09:55] <curtis_> hmm thank you
[09:55] <curtis_> MrPrimate:  any other advice!
[09:55] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, wait, thre is a new video setup tool i think,   anyone know what thats called ?
[09:55] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, would sudo apt-get pure-ftpd
[09:55] <MoNsTeR>  be the command to install it?
[09:55] <summer_s4> how do i install virtualbox?  Sudo apt-get install virtualbox dosn't work
[09:56] <nomaS> vbox
[09:56] <MrPrimate> curtis_, your still having problems, ?  whats the problem again, you killed box during apt updating and now it gives error whenever you apt-get update ?
[09:56] <_SiLENT_> Driver          "nv"
[09:56] <summer_s4> vbox can't be found
[09:56] <zoldar> anybody have problems connecting to winehq apt repository?
[09:56] <Curs0r> http://www.howtoforge.com/virtualbox_ubuntu
[09:56] <curtis_> MrPrimate:  exactly
[09:56] <gld_> summer_s4, does it have to be virtualbox? I find VMware is better in all aspects
[09:57] <MrPrimate> curtis_, type ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/lock   and paste the results here,
[09:57] <MoNsTeR> god MrPrimate ive asked you a question answer it
[09:57] <MrPrimate> curtis_, you may just need to delete that lock file
[09:57] <minotauro> can ubuntu be a dual boot with win xp
[09:57] <MrPrimate> curtis_, you can try              sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[09:57] <Curs0r> minerale, yes, easily
[09:57] <momal> minotauro: yes it can
[09:57] <Curs0r> !xp
[09:57] <ubotu> XP, or "eXtreme Programming" is a style of programming, for more information see: http://www.extremeprogramming.org/
[09:57] <curtis_> ok MrPrimate lemme try
[09:57] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, please :)
[09:57] <Curs0r> !dualboot

[09:57] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, youve asked me 1,000 questions and i've answered 900 of them :]    theres a lot of people asking a lot
[09:57] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate: Driver          "nv"
[09:57] <minotauro> cheers for the link
[09:58] <Curs0r> no worries m8
[09:58] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, and yes  sudo apt-get install pure-ftpd   should install an ftp daemon
[09:58] <curtis_> MrPrimate:  result: -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 2007-09-29 10:52 /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[09:58] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, whether or not it will work for you is beyond me,
[09:58] <MrPrimate> curtis_, good, delete that file,     sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock

[09:58] <Perthnoob> lol boss
[09:59] <curtis_> ok ill try
[09:59] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, you forgot the 'install' part
[09:59] <MoNsTeR> oops
[09:59] <MrPrimate> Bossmanbeta, fortunately irc at least weeds out the people who can't get online so you don't have to deal with the absolute bottom of the barrel ;] 
[09:59] <_SiLENT_> how do I adjust display settings?
[10:00] <curtis_> MrPrimate:  E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[10:00] <MrPrimate> some of you guys would learn more by asking less and trying more
[10:00] <gld_> _SiLENT_, which settings in particular?
[10:00] <bullgard4> "rdev is an  utility for obtaining information about a Linux system. It Rdev
[10:00] <bullgard4> "rdev is an  utility for obtaining information about a Linux system. It      sed to query and set the image root device, the video
[10:00] <Bossmanbeta> MrPrimate, I wouldn't find that consoling, personally.
[10:00] <_SiLENT_> resolution, frequency
[10:00] <MrPrimate> curtis_, you have probably some bad sources in /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:00] <curtis_> MrPrimate:  and how can i fix tht! (sorry if am bothering)
[10:00] <Perthnoob> Can anyone here throw me a lifeline as to how to get Intel Pro Wireless 2100 chipset working on a Toshiba Tecra M2.  *warning* I am a Linux user of 1 hour so far....
[10:01] <MrPrimate> anyone know the name of that new gnome video tool for _SiLENT_  ?
[10:01] <gld_> _SiLENT_, System, Preferences, Screen Resolution for resolution
[10:01] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, now how do i run the program i installed and for a server cant i use the app "terminal server client"
[10:01] <MrPrimate> they made something to set up video drivers and stuff for gnome i cant remember whats they call it
[10:01] <riotkittie> _SiLENT_: manually edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf with nano/kate/or gedit ... or open a term and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" .. which will guide you through the process
[10:01] <Curs0r> ugh I should have told it to skip evolution
[10:02] <curtis_> MrPrimate:  so how could i fix my sources list..!
[10:02] <schnoonix> MoNsTer, i couldnt even find tht option in BIOS. Could it be something else why ubuntu is picking up the SATA ?
[10:02] <MrPrimate> for _SiLENT_, it shows it here http://fosswire.com/2007/08/17/ubuntu-getting-xorgconf-gui/  is it released ?
[10:02] <bullgard4> "rdev is an  utility for obtaining information about a Linux system. It is used to query the image root device, the video mode, and a RAM disk." What is an 'image root device'?
[10:02] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, if the tool i paste isnt available follow riotkittie instruction to reconfigure
[10:02] <MoNsTeR> _SiLENT_, paste your code somewhere so i can see it and ill edit it for you
[10:03] <MoNsTeR> schnoonix, what option did i say again?
[10:03] <Bossmanbeta> ..please dont paste in the channel.
[10:03] <Bossmanbeta> ..use http://pastebin.com/ instead
[10:03] <_SiLENT_> how do I do that? u guys are talking to a complete noob!
[10:03] <gld_> _SiLENT_, its all under screen resulution which is under system, preferences. This will cut out terminal work
[10:03] <MrPrimate> curtis_, you can edit it with a text editor, the file is at /etc/apt/sources.list,     remove lines that don't say ubuntu probably -- at the bottom usually
[10:04] <_SiLENT_> the display is slow
[10:04] <zoldar> is there any workaround for lack of background transparency in flash objects in browsers? on client side ?
[10:04] <Enselic> Hello, typing / allows me to search for a string in man, is there a way to continue the search without having to type / again?
[10:04] <crazy6> how do I get ncurses-dev in ubuntu? there's no pacakge for it?
[10:04] <curtis_> MrPrimate:  ok thanks
[10:04] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, how do i run the ftp program
[10:04] <_SiLENT_> like u got windows installed without video drivers
[10:04] <riotkittie> _SiLENT_: hit ALT+F2 and then type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" , select run in term, hit enter
[10:04] <Bossmanbeta> _SiLENT_, if you lower your expectations, the problem will disappear.
[10:04] <gld_> _SiLENT_, how do you mean?
[10:04] <Enselic> crazy6: apt-cache search ncurses
[10:04] <MrPrimate> that gutsy xorg tool looks sweet, will save mass headaches ala _SiLENT_
[10:05] <preaction_> zoldar, that's up to the website to put the <param name="bgcolor" value="transparent"> in the <object> tag. visit #web, #css for more details
[10:05] <aussieaubs> hi all - am i in the right room to get ubuntu help with connecting to network shares?
[10:05] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, can i use the terminal server client that comes with uubuntu
[10:05] <gld_> _SiLENT_, Is it slow in plain old desktop or in a game?
[10:05] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, it should be already running and listed in ps,  its an ftp daemon, runs in the background
[10:05] <_SiLENT_> riotkittie, it asks for password, what password??
[10:05] <simplechat> hey
[10:05] <_SiLENT_> desktop
[10:05] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, try    ftp localhost       to connect to your local ftp server
[10:05] <zoldar> preaction_:  even though it is there, it doesn't work under linux
[10:05] <simplechat> xchat is segfaulting for me
[10:05] <riotkittie> _SiLENT_: your user password
[10:05] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, your login password
[10:05] <simplechat> how would i debug it?
[10:05] <MoNsTeR> ok
[10:06] <gld_> _SiLENT_, do you have a graphics card?
[10:06] <simplechat> i've tried purging and reinstalling, but it didn't make any difference
[10:06] <MrPrimate> gld_, ha
[10:06] <Frezeeer> hi, in preparation fot the upgrade to ubuntu 7.10 I want to downgrade all packages to the ones it the official repositories, is there a way I can do that or I have to go one by one
[10:06] <_SiLENT_> gld_ yes
[10:06] <MrPrimate> simplechat, probably you're quicker to change version
[10:06] <gld_> _SiLENT_, Have you installed the drivers for it?
[10:06] <MrPrimate> simplechat, but you can always try gdb since you sound like a superhacker
[10:06] <_SiLENT_> my login password is 123 and i can't enter it terminal
[10:06] <_SiLENT_> gld_: it is NVIDIA
[10:06] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, hehe,..
[10:06] <MoNsTeR> it dint connect
[10:07] <gld_> _SiLENT_, it won't show up in terminal, but it is being entered
[10:07] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, it didnt work
[10:07] <MrPrimate> _SiLENT_, you're not always wise to give your password on irc
[10:07] <schnoonix> MoNsTeR: i cant quite remember the url. but changing SATA from combine to normal, although i saw nothing like that
[10:07] <riotkittie> Frezeeer: one hopes you have another OS installed alongside, if you're upgrading.
[10:07] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, rtfm.
[10:07] <shiznit> hello
[10:07] <Bossmanbeta> if it weren't for passwords like 123, there wouldn't be any thievery in the world..
[10:07] <schnoonix> if its a known cause for ubuntu not picking up SATA for people, how do everyoen get aroun it ?
[10:07] <simplechat> any ideas?
[10:07] <crazy6> Enselic: oh, how did I possibly miss it? silly me, thanks
[10:07] <simplechat> :(
[10:07] <simplechat> this is really wierd
[10:07] <gld_> _SiLENT_, Have you installed the restricted drivers for it?
[10:07] <_SiLENT_> lol, ok what now?
[10:08] <shiznit> should i install x86 even though i can run x64?
[10:08] <Frezeeer> riotkittie: I dont want to loose my configuration, but I am not able to upgrade with the update-manager
[10:08] <Frezeeer> so I thought maybe I had some package messing with everything...
[10:08] <_SiLENT_> MrPrimate, hey this password and the whole installation is just testing :)
[10:08] <MrPrimate> shiznit, install x86 if you are really newbie and you don't need x64 for anything, it will be less headaches for simplicity
[10:09] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, what rtfm stand for
[10:09] <riotkittie> Frezeeer: perhaps someone in #ubuntu+1 can answer your question
[10:09] <momal> MoNsTeR: LOL
[10:09] <Bossmanbeta> MrPrimate, at least make the passwd the sq. root of 1522756
[10:09] <momal> MoNsTeR: you really dont know?
[10:09] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, figure it out ;)
[10:09] <riotkittie> it stands for read the f...antastic manual, and should not be said here. :P
[10:09] <_SiLENT_> gld_ what restricted?
[10:09] <_SiLENT_> which driver do I choose?
[10:09] <Frezeeer> ok
[10:09] <Frezeeer> thanks
[10:09] <shiznit> MrPrimate, will all 4gb of ram work?
[10:09] <jacobat> MoNsTeR: Read the fine manual
[10:10] <Bossmanbeta> MoNsTeR, you've asked the most famous question in Noobdom
[10:10] <MrPrimate> riotkittie, he had an rtfm coming about 1,000 lines ago, i held out as long as i possibly could :)
[10:10] <sashaman14> monster, MrPrimate, got another prob.... sorry....my sound isn't working....and yes i do have my speakers on...
[10:10] <MrPrimate> shiznit, yup
[10:10] <gld_> _SiLENT_, System, Administration, Restricted Driver Management. It is graphics drivers, If you are nVidia, use the nVidia drivers
[10:10] <schnoonix> for ubuntu to read SATA drives, in bios does it HAVE to be set on RAID instead of IDE ?
[10:10] <MoNsTeR> sashaman14, idk how to go about fixing that sorry
[10:10] <shiznit> i tried the x64 and it boot to blank screen on my nvidia
[10:10] <Bossmanbeta> When we're asked the meaning of RTFM, everyone gets a free round of GrapeAide to drink in a free Foam cup of Stallman
[10:10] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, what happens when you     alsactl restore 0 ?
[10:11] <riotkittie> schnoonix: i've never had issues with my SATA/eSATA drives
[10:11] <MoNsTeR> MrPrimate, your a D*** WTF did you say that SH** to me!!!
[10:11] <warbler> !oi
[10:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about oi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:11] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, hehe,  chill out, i've been trying to help you,  but really to help you at this point is to rtfm you,  you must learn on your own at some point
[10:11] <gld_> MoNsTeR, He doesn't have to help you, hes being a good person, respect that
[10:11] <shiznit> will i have better luck with my 8800 if i install x86, 64bit boots to black screen and even the new driver doesnt fix it
[10:12] <momal> Well this might turn out interesting LOL
[10:12] <MrPrimate> MoNsTeR, you earned an 'rtfm' when you demanded that i answer your 99th question
[10:12] <MoNsTeR> gld_, get out of our buisness lol
[10:12] <shiznit> i have tried recovery mode, tried both drivers and xserver reconfigure
[10:12] <Bossmanbeta> (laziness)*(ignorance)/google=RTFM
[10:12] <ZmaX> /me  sveglio
[10:12] <riotkittie> shiznit: uhhhhhh are you using the desktop/Live cd? if so, try the alternate install
[10:12] <MrPrimate> Bossmanbeta, ha
[10:12] <ZmaX> -.-
[10:12] <sashaman14> MrPrimate, i went to terminal and when i typed alsactl restore O it said it cant find souncad O
[10:13] <shiznit> riotkittie, why the alternate?
[10:13] <_SiLENT_> look, in restricted drivers there is NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver "not in use", I try to tick it, it asks "enable the driver?", i say yes but nothing changes the box isn't ticked
[10:13] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, your soundcard driver or module is not installed or not working, what kind of card is it, and does it show up in lspci ?
[10:13] <gld_> _SiLENT_, You need to restart to see a change
[10:13] <sashaman14> MrPrimate, how do i check lspci
[10:14] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, if you type lspci it will dump a list of pci cards detected
[10:14] <_SiLENT_> gld_ i tried, there weren't any changes
[10:14] <riotkittie> shiznit: oh wait. never mind. you're talking about an actual install, arent you, rather than an attempt to install
[10:14] <_SiLENT_> I'll try again
[10:14] <momal> MrPrimate: after seeing how much of a help you can be to others.. know anything about 5.1 ? center speaker doesn't work (nothing wrong with the cords or speaker its self)
[10:14] <sashaman14> MrPrimate, wat am i looking 4?
[10:14] <shiznit> yes it installs fine
[10:14] <MrPrimate> momal, did you check the mixer in gnome and alsamixer ?
[10:14] <shiznit> but boots to black screen
[10:14] <riotkittie> shiznit: right after GRUB?
[10:14] <shiznit> not
[10:14] <shiznit> imediately
[10:15] <shiznit> not splash
[10:15] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, you're looking to see if you have a sound card listed, sometimes it can be tricky, but helps if you know which kind of soundcard
[10:15] <sashaman14> MrPrimate, 00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60)
[10:15] <shiznit> the live cd did the same unless i use vga
[10:15] <momal> MrPrimate: I set kaffine/amarok to use xine,alsa,5.1 surround. Kmix and alsamixer seem to be all set correctly 6channel, everything there full volume. I am using on board sound card "Nvidia CK804, Realtek ALC850"
[10:15] <shiznit> i used recovery mode and set xserver to vesa and now i can boot
[10:15] <MrPrimate> momal, i haven't tried for 5.1 in linux, but i have mixer controls for various channels
[10:16] <schnoonix> anyone got anymore ideas about what i could try to get my SATA showing
[10:16] <MrPrimate> momal, you may have to hit spacebar in alsamixer to enable channels but thats a wild guess
[10:16] <MrPrimate> momal, check this for the road to hell: http://www.halfgaar.net/surround-sound-in-linux
[10:16] <tarmo> how can I see what is cpu frequency at the moment ?
[10:16] <schnoonix> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5472&page=2 <-- that doesnt work, and is rather old. As i am trying to get it working with FAWN
[10:16] <Bossmanbeta> pressing the <any> key works as well
[10:16] <riotkittie> shiznit: how bizarre. i cant help, but if its any consolation, i ran into a similar issue with a fresh install tonight
[10:16] <sashaman14> MrPrimate, was that it?....
[10:16] <shiznit> tarmo, there is a plugin for the top bar
[10:16] <Perthnoob> Can anyone here throw me a lifeline as to how to get Intel Pro Wireless 2100 chipset working on a Toshiba Tecra M2.  *warning* I am a Linux user of 1 hour so far....
[10:17] <Bossmanbeta> Perthnoob, by now it's more like 92 mins
[10:17] <shiznit> yea this is bullshit, i really like ubuntu on my laptop but im not gonna run my 8800gtx in vesa mode lol
[10:17] <riotkittie> tarmo: click on panel > add to panel
[10:17] <gld_> tarmo, System, Administration, System Moniter
[10:17] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, you are sure that sata enabled in bios? does it show up in windows? does drive appear during boot ?
[10:17] <Perthnoob> lol, true
[10:17] <tarmo> thanks shiznit
[10:17] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, yes thats it
[10:17] <shiznit> tarmo np
[10:17] <schnoonix> MrPrimate yes they show up in BIOS and its what windows is installed on
[10:18] <ubuntuuser123> hi
[10:18] <sorsis> hows 7.10 going?
[10:18] <sashaman14> MrPrimate, wat to do now
[10:18] <_SiLENT_> the same crap
[10:18] <riotkittie> sorsis: as well as can be expected for a beta
[10:18] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, so you have a AC97 sound card, i believe sometimes there is also ac97 modem conflict,
[10:18] <_SiLENT_> I can't believe this, if Ubuntu can't support an old NVIDIA card, then I don't know what to say
[10:18] <simplechat> anyone around?
[10:18] <MoNsTeR> Can anybody help me with creating a server
[10:18] <gld_> _SiLENT_, It should work after restart.... If it doesn't, then i'm out of ideas, sorry
[10:19] <simplechat> is there any way to trace a segfault?
[10:19] <n-iCe> How can I know my public ip in terminal
[10:19] <_SiLENT_> I have restarted
[10:19] <momal> MrPrimate: hmm spacebar doesn't seem to do anything yeah i have tried that site before already :p. sound test seems to only show the front left and right are working but back left and right work fine in amarok/kaffine
[10:19] <_SiLENT_> still the same
[10:19] <ubuntuuser123> How do i relocate the /tmp folder in ubuntu?I want it to be located on my NTFS partition instead of my linux partition.my NTFS partitions seem to be located in /media/ for some reason...i do have ntfs-config.help me?
[10:19] <riotkittie> n-iCe: ifconfig
[10:19] <schnoonix> MrPrimate: is there a command i can use to list all connected drives ? or satas in particular
[10:19] <simplechat> n-ice lynx http://whatismyip.com --source > grep "something"
[10:19] <simplechat> uh
[10:19] <gld_> _SiLENT_, then I don't know how to get it going, sorry
[10:19] <blooshoo> is there a command for ubuntu like ipconfig /all ?
[10:19] <schnoonix> just to tell you IDE's have priority over my SATA
[10:19] <riotkittie> ew. why put /tmp on your win partition?
[10:19] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, try to run   modprobe  ac97_bus   (maybe is wrong module, see what happens tho)
[10:19] <riotkittie> blooshoo : ifconfig -a
[10:19] <Bossmanbeta> ubuntuuser123, your /tmp can't be on an ntfs partition
[10:19] <_SiLENT_> ohhhh:(
[10:19] <n-iCe> riotkittie that show me : 10.7.15.255
[10:19] <ubuntuuser123> :(
[10:19] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, thats sudo modprobe ac97_bus
[10:19] <blooshoo> thantks riot :D
[10:20] <schnoonix> some people said change the SATA to raid, instead of having it on IDE. What exactly will that do, will that effect whats on the drives already ?
[10:20] <MoNsTeR> Can anybody help me with creating a server
[10:20] <shiznit> anyone here use nvidia 8800gtx?
[10:20] <cyberjames> MoNsTeR: sure
[10:20] <ubuntuuser123> well it's because i want to install WolfET and i barely have any space left on my ubuntu drive
[10:20] <gld_> _SiLENT_ ubuntuforums might yeald some results for you
[10:20] <summer_s4> Monster:  24/7 service here
[10:20] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, you will get more detailed info from        sudo modprobe -v ac97_bus
[10:20] <MoNsTeR> cyberjames, so you can
[10:20] <n-iCe> riotkittie is not my public ip
[10:20] <cyberjames> MoNsTeR: did you get my pm?
[10:20] <ubuntuuser123> is there any way to get a .run file to install itself to an NTFS partition?
[10:20] <MoNsTeR> cyberjames, wanna do it in pms? so we can actually read eachothers text
[10:21] <summer_s4> can someone tell me how to compleetly remove all traces of virtual box from the system?
[10:21] <MoNsTeR> yes i did
[10:21] <legion> ok, been down this road before, but has anyone gotten the svideo out working on radeon9000's?
[10:21] <riotkittie> n-iCe: network issues are beyond my ability by far
[10:21] <tarmo> ubuntu works well on my Dell Latitude D410 - evem wireless works great
[10:21] <cyberjames> MoNsTeR, i did it already. ok sure
[10:21] <MoNsTeR> cyberjames, did you get my reply in oms
[10:21] <MoNsTeR> pms**
[10:21] <cyberjames> no
[10:21] <MrPrimate> legion, there's an ati tvtool or something to try to help with that
[10:21] <MoNsTeR> gosh this never works for me
[10:21] <MoNsTeR> how cum?
[10:22] <ubuntuuser123>  is there any way to get a .run file to install itself to an NTFS partition?
[10:22] <cyberjames> MoNsTeR type /query cyberjames
[10:22] <sashaman14> typed in sudo modprobe -v ac97_bus and sudo modprobe ac97_bus
[10:22] <sashaman14> MrPrimate,
[10:22] <_SiLENT_> I'm tired of this, back to Windows, where things are fine enough, good bye Ubuntu....
[10:22] <shiznit> does x86 linux have a 4gb virtual memory limit like windows
[10:22] <sashaman14> MrPrimate, typed that in and nothing happened
[10:22] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, any luck with   alsactl restore 0 now ?  (or 1)
[10:22] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, it would silently load the module, you'll see it now under lsmod
[10:22] <schnoonix> MrPrimate: do you have another idea ?
[10:22] <Bossmanbeta> _SiLENT_, say hi to the other sheep on your way baaaack.
[10:22] <penguincentral> shiznit: maybe, maybe not.
[10:22] <summer_s4> does anyone know how to make sourceforge an applacation downloading source?
[10:23] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, SATA device listed in lspci  ?
[10:23] <sashaman14> MrPrimate, capitol o or zero??
[10:23] <MoNsTeR> i sent you a bunch of ims back cyberjames
[10:23] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, zero
[10:23] <n-iCe> simplechat lynx http://whatismyip.com --source > grep "something" didn't work :<
[10:23] <MoNsTeR> cyberjames, can you just talk on aim or msn
[10:23] <_SiLENT_> Bossmanbeta, wtf to u mean
[10:23] <ubuntuuser123> while you aint too busy do you want to help me?:
[10:23] <ubuntuuser123>  is there any way to get a .run file to install itself to an NTFS partition?
[10:23] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, alsactl 0 will say nothing if the cards working, error if not
[10:23] <cyberjames> MoNsTeR: ok apach3s@hotmail.com
[10:23] <summer_s4> can someone help me set up a lamp server on ubuntu desktop?
[10:23] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, run the file from inside mounted ntfs partition
[10:24] <MoNsTeR> im adding you
[10:24] <ubuntuuser123> i did
[10:24] <ubuntuuser123> it uses the ubuntu /tmp folder
[10:24] <ubuntuuser123> and then ends up with an error or two
[10:24] <smurf_> okay i need help./
[10:24] <schnoonix> MrPrimate:  no it doesnt
[10:24] <riotkittie> i know you can read/write between the two, but ... somehow, installing linux programs on a win partition, does not strike me as a wise idea
[10:24] <MrPrimate> summer_s4, apt-get install mysql-server apache2 php etc
[10:24] <legion> is the ati tvtool available through synaptic? or third party?
[10:24] <MoNsTeR> cyberjames, did you get the request
[10:24] <simplechat> ?
[10:24] <smurf_> Can someone please help me?
[10:25] <riotkittie> smurf_: with?
[10:25] <Hippu> summer_s4: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/web-servers.html
[10:25] <simplechat> anyone?
[10:25] <simplechat> irssi sucks really really badly
[10:25] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, nothing like 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801GBM/GHM (ICH7 Family) Serial ATA Storage Controller IDE (rev 02) ??   << mine
[10:25] <_SiLENT_> hey, how do I uninstall Ubuntu?
[10:25] <simplechat> hence why i'm asking how to fix xchat
[10:25] <riotkittie> simplechat: no. irssi is awesome.
[10:25] <Hippu> and http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/mysql.html
[10:25] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, lspci | grep SATA
[10:25] <summer_s4> Can someone help me fix this error message?  E: The package virtualbox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[10:25] <gld_> _SiLENT_ delete the partitions with the live cd
[10:25] <smurf_> im installing nvidida drivers for wine , i have to exit so when i sau sudp .etc/init.d/gdm stop it takes me to a black screen with no terminal at all...
[10:25] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, sorry, i mean lspci | grep ATA
[10:25] <shiznit> will nvidia work with x86?
[10:25] <summer_s4> shiznit: yes
[10:25] <smurf_> that does not help me install my nvidia drivers by giving me a black screen.
[10:26] <schnoonix> nothing shows
[10:26] <_SiLENT_> what about the boot record?
[10:26] <shiznit> amd64 boots to blank screen
[10:26] <gld_> meh
[10:26] <MrPrimate> summer_s4,   wget http://www.virtualbox.org/download/1.3.8/VirtualBox_1.3.8_Ubuntu_feisty_i386.deb
[10:26] <schnoonix> my bios picks it up though, and if i dont live cd boot it loads windows because the drive has been partioned and loaded with windows
[10:26] <preaction_> _SiLENT_, your new OS will have to install a new boot loader
[10:26] <sashaman14> MrPrimate typed in lsmod and got a bunch of stuff, everything else was an unknown command
[10:26] <MrPrimate> summer_s4, that will download VirtualBox 1.3.8 for feisty (7.04 ubuntu), then type         sudo dpkg -i VirtualBox_1.3.8_Ubuntu_feisty_i386.deb to install it
[10:26] <Bossmanbeta> IPTABLES  --insert INPUT 1 -i ! <ignroant|lazy|sheep> -j DROP
[10:26] <smurf_> Anyone???
[10:26] <_SiLENT_> very nice, can't I restore it from ubuntu?
[10:27] <MrPrimate> sashaman14,       sudo alsactl restore 0      < still gives you an error or no ?
[10:27] <shiznit> who has gotten 8800 to work?
[10:27] <summer_s4> mrprimate: after it is installed, can you tell me how to remove it?
[10:27] <MrPrimate> sashaman14, search google for help getting ac97 running in ubuntu
[10:27] <smurf_> Hello?
[10:27] <ubuntuuser123> (11:26:07) ubuntuuser123: ok

[10:27] <ubuntuuser123> (11:27:01) ubuntuuser123: i just dont know how safe it will be
[10:27] <MrPrimate> summer_s4, apt-get remove [package]

[10:28] <smurf_> I cant get out of Gnome i need to disable X server\
[10:28] <Mystery> hello, there's a bit in the menus under Gnome, it seems any theme other than the default Human one results in menus with forced scroll, even when not needed, the second time you open up the menu the scroll disappears, anyone know of a way to fix this? =] 
[10:28] <Tensoma> !grub
[10:28] <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
[10:28] <smurf_> and when i do i get a black screen with no terminal
[10:28] <schnoonix> MrPrimate:  could there be any other causes for this ?
[10:28] <Mystery> *+of a bug
[10:28] <MrPrimate> smurf, you've tried to   ctrl+alt+F1 ?
[10:28] <legion> MrPrimate the only tvtool app i can find in synaptic is nvtv (which i assume wont work on my ATI radeon 9000)
[10:28] <Perthnoob> Hi guys,  just installed ubuntu and everything works except wor my wifi.  the driver seems to be loaded, but it's not showing in network config.  Any ideas?
[10:28] <smurf_> no...
[10:28] <smurf_> brb
[10:28] <ubuntuuser123> mrprimate, please check your PM
[10:28] <riotkittie> ubuntuuser123: 1 - please dont flood the channel with large pastes. 2 - you can go that route, or you can use gparted
[10:28] <punzada> is there any point in using a 64bit OS if you're not using more then 4 gigs of ram?
[10:29] <MrPrimate> smurf, you can kill GDM and then ctrl+alt+backspace to die X and it wont restart
[10:29] <riotkittie> Perthnoob: what kind of card is it, or better yet, the chipset?
[10:29] <ubuntuuser123> /notice riotkittie i won't ok
[10:29] <ubuntuuser123> -.-
[10:29] <MyMaggot> hm
[10:29] <shiznit> riotkittie, yea its right after grub i misunderstood the question
[10:29] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, i'm not getting pm from you, other people can't get them to me either
[10:29] <DocTomoe> On a feisty machine,  I have some weird sound issue with kubuntu on a shuttle pc. this machine has two sound cards, the onboard HDA ULI M5461 and an Audigy2 ZS. For wome weird reason, sound works 33% of the reboots, but not on the other two thirds. Where can I look?
[10:29] <Bossmanbeta> Perthnoob, the first google result for the question": " intel pro 2200 ubuntu" http://www.debuntu.org/2006/03/27/9-how-to-ipw2200-getting-intel-pro-wireless-2200-bg-to-work-on-debian-ubuntu
[10:29] <_MattB> is there a way to force cron to run cron.hourly right now?
[10:29] <summer_s4> how do i choose accept on the virtualbox licence?
[10:29] <ubuntuuser123> ok MrPrimate, then could you scroll up a bit and read my story?
[10:30] <Perthnoob> yeah, but it's a 2100 chipset, will that matter?
[10:30] <riotkittie> shiznit: and... the system isn't frozen?
[10:30] <shiznit> i dont know
[10:30] <shiznit> cant see shit
[10:30] <MrPrimate> punzada, the 64-bit part means the processor can crunch 64-bit numbers in a single operation - applications can run quicker because of this
[10:30] <teclis> hello, I wannna change the master password of my Gnome Keyring. How does that work?
[10:30] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, k
[10:30] <Bossmanbeta> change the google search from "  intel pro 2200 ubuntu " to " intel pro 2100 ubuntu"
[10:30] <Bossmanbeta> you may be surprised.
[10:30] <riotkittie> shiznit: did you just hit the power button? or did you alt+ctrl+del to reboot
[10:30] <summer_s4> I know it is kind of odd, but how do i tell terminal to accept the virtualbox licence
[10:30] <Perthnoob> yeah tried that earlier, but thanks anyway
[10:31] <shiznit> hmm
[10:31] <shiznit> dont know
[10:31] <shiznit> i think i tried one and then the other
[10:31] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, you can relocate /tmp, do you have the drive that you want it on mounted already and accessible ?
[10:31] <Bossmanbeta> or this... google's 10th item: http://bert.vdb-studios.be/ubuntu/FeistyInstallation.php
[10:31] <portableji1> summer_s4: (simple LAMP install): sudo tasksel install lamp-server
[10:31] <ubuntuuser123> it is accessible, yes.i can read and write to it on ubuntu.it is my NTFS stuff drive.
[10:32] <shiznit> riotkittie, i have searched the forums and did the apt-get for the newer nvidia drivers, i reconfigured xserver, stil nothing
[10:32] <c3LT1cFr05t> summer_s4:you will need to pick a user group i just did this yesterday,i can find you a good tutorial if needed
[10:32] <summer_s4> how do i make the terminal accept the license agreement?
[10:32] <Bossmanbeta> there is rarely a problem i haven't been able to fix by googling.
[10:32] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, i havent tried this on a running system, it might get screwy if you're in X, but you can  make a dir for it, like      /media/windows/tmp , and then copy the current /tmp like :  cp -dpR /tmp /media/windows/tmp
[10:32] <riotkittie> shiznit: which release of ubuntu?
[10:32] <shiznit> 7.04 amd64
[10:32] <portableji1> summer_s4: TAB then enter??
[10:32] <ubuntuuser123> it's not the current tmp i'm worried about..
[10:33] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, once everything is done copying, move /tmp out of the way, mkdir /tmp and then ln -s /media/windows/tmp /tmp
[10:33] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, that will create a symbolic link pointing from /tmp to /media/windows/tmp
[10:33] <ubuntuuser123> oh cool :P
[10:33] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, but plase be advised ahead that this could be dangerous to do while running (might crash something)
[10:33] <summer_s4> portableji1:  I will thank you until i go to heven on that one
[10:33] <ubuntuuser123> in my case probably /media/hda2/tmp
[10:33] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, probably not cause permanent damage, but have a rescue disk in case
[10:33] <c3LT1cFr05t> I just got done getting my desktop back under xp cuz ubuntu couldnt drive my new printer
[10:33] <portableji1> summer_s4: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP?action=show&redirect=LAMP
[10:33] <smurf_> i pressed cntrl alt f1
[10:33] <ubuntuuser123> umm..i have a live cd
[10:34] <smurf_> said x server was still on after cntrl alt f1
[10:34] <Bossmanbeta> c3LT1cFr05t, you check the tires on the printer?
[10:34] <ubuntuuser123> if all else fails i guess i could use THAT.

[10:34] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, good luck, let me know if you have questions more while you're doing it
[10:34] <smurf_> pirate???
[10:34] <riotkittie> why not just add more free space to your linux partition, rather than moving a dir to a windows' drive?
[10:34] <gawwy> ???
[10:34] <c3LT1cFr05t> it's wild using xp after using linux for the past 3 months
[10:34] <shiznit> riotkittie, one guy on the forums says the alternate worked for him
[10:34] <ubuntuuser123> riotkittie
[10:34] <ubuntuuser123> thats what i asked for second
[10:34] <ubuntuuser123> but i dunno how
[10:34] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, try to make sure you get the new symbolic link in pretty quickly after you move the old /tmp out of the way
[10:34] <smurf_> MrPrimate it said x server is still on
[10:34] <Bossmanbeta> c3LT1cFr05t, give my regards to the sheep on your way baaaack
[10:35] <Amaranth> KnumbNutz: Please change your nick.
[10:35] <smurf_> MrPrimate it said x server is still on
[10:35] <schnoonix> MrPrimate:  could it be that the kernel does not support my sata controller ?
[10:35] <MrPrimate> smurf_, you want to remove x altogether and boot to console ?
[10:35] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, yes
[10:35] <riotkittie> ubuntuuser123:  boot with a live disc, run gparted
[10:35] <smurf_> no i just want to install nvidida dirver
[10:35] <c3LT1cFr05t> yea right at least its a bootie
[10:35] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, in taht case you can run your drive as IDE
[10:35] <ubuntuuser123> mrprimate, is there any way i can get free space off NTFS drive to turn to free space on the Ubuntu disk
[10:35] <shiznit> yes gparted is much better than the installer partitioner
[10:35] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, to run as IDE change settings in BIOS to disable SATA and boot into linux and check for ide disk
[10:35] <schnoonix> MrPrimate: how do i do that. in BIOS its already set as IDE
[10:35] <ubuntuuser123> wtf is gparted
[10:35] <shiznit> its a partition manager
[10:35] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, then your drive should appear in linux as /dev/hdX instead of /dev/sdX
[10:36] <simplechat> quit
[10:36] <Bossmanbeta> ubuntuuser123, gparted is a plugin to the RTFM module.
[10:36] <riotkittie> ubuntuuser123: hit ALT+F2 type gksu gparted and see for yourself
[10:36] <MrPrimate> schnoonix, type this:      cat /proc/partitions      -- do you see the partitions of the sata drive ?
[10:36] <summer_s4> I have a question.  How do i get a bionic Client?
[10:36] <summer_s4> i have the .sh file
[10:36] <c3LT1cFr05t> as long as you use sandboxie and antiXP windows is all good
[10:36] <schnoonix> no i dont
[10:36] <schnoonix> only my 40gb and 160g IDE drives
[10:36] <n-iCe> how can I know by terminal all the characteristicas for my computer
[10:36] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, you can go into windows and shrink the NTFS drive, or shrink it with ntfs-resize
[10:36] <shiznit> sandboxie crashes xp x64 for me
[10:36] <ubuntuuser123> can i use gparted to turn free space on a NTFS drive to turn to free space on a Linux Drive
[10:37] <shiznit> yes
[10:37] <schnoonix> if i disable SATA like that, will it affect my windows. and wont it mean that i wont get the speed of SATA ?
[10:37] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, you should run defrag before you shrink the partition for best results
[10:37] <riotkittie> n-iCe: lshw  /thats a lower case L/
[10:37] <shiznit> very true
[10:37] <c3LT1cFr05t> how would i get python scripts recognized in windows?
[10:37] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, your goal is to shrink the NTFS partition, and then create a new partition, format and mount it in linux
[10:37] <ubuntuuser123> how do i "shrink " the partition?
[10:37] <shiznit> you dont want data at the end of the partition
[10:37] <Xiittah> could someone suggest a good music downloading software for ubuntu?
[10:37] <n-iCe> riotkittie thanks
[10:38] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, you can shrink the partition with windows > control panel > administration > computer management > disk management  (right click partition > shrink)        or use ntfs-resize in linux
[10:38] <gld_> c3LT1cFr05t, have you got python installed in windows?
[10:38] <c3LT1cFr05t> no
[10:38] <shiznit> ubuntuuser123, run vopt8.18 in windows and defrag everything
[10:38] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, gparted may also have a thing to shrink ntfs
[10:38] <ubuntuuser123> how long will it take to defrag?
[10:38] <riotkittie> ubuntuuser123: once you are running from a live disc, click your windows partition and select resize. then add the resulting freespace to your ubuntu partition
[10:38] <howlingmadhowie> Xiittah: music downloading software?
[10:38] <MrPrimate> ubuntuuser123, yes you ought to defrag before shrink,... in vista defrag can take several lifetimes
[10:38] <schnoonix> MrPrimate:  if i disable SATA like that, will it affect my windows. and wont it mean that i wont get the speed of SATA ?
[10:38] <ubuntuuser123> i'm on XP
[10:38] <punzada> would there be any signifigant drawback to installing 32bit ubuntu on a core2duo machine (or quadcore) instead of going with it's 64bit architecture with the 64bit release?
[10:38] <Xiittah> howlingmadhowie: yea
[10:38] <gld_>  c3LT1cFr05t, install it, then it will work in windows
[10:39] <punzada> is it even possible? ;/
[10:39] <MrPrimate> you'll be happy to know that linux filesystems don't usually need defragmentation
[10:39] <ubuntuuser123> and the Partition i want to get space from is 66 gigs
[10:39] <ubuntuuser123> well
[10:39] <howlingmadhowie> Xiittah: what does music downloading software do?
[10:39] <riotkittie> ubuntuuser123: yea, boot into win, defrag ... and then use windows' tools to resize
[10:39] <c3LT1cFr05t> what is the freenode mico stiff channel?
[10:39] <ubuntuuser123> i have 8 gigs free on that
[10:39] <ubuntuuser123> and i want to nick 4 gigs
[10:39] <MrPrimate> punzada, probably you wouldn't notice unless you're running a serious server or you're hardcore
[10:39] <summer_s4> punzada:  you can put 32 bit on 64 bit.  Just 64 bit dosn't go on 32 bit
[10:39] <Toma-> mico stiff?
[10:40] <MrPrimate> c3LT1cFr05t, is that some kind of creepy porn thing you're into?  we dont do that on freenode
[10:40] <punzada> Hmm, that's good to know, been shopping around for pc parts and I need to use wine for a few applications
[10:40] <shiznit> MrPrimate, what about 4gb ram + video ram?
[10:40] <punzada> far as I know wine still doesn't work in 64 bit ubuntu
[10:40] <howlingmadhowie> punzada: the amd64 instruction set extends the intel x86 instruction set
[10:40] <shiznit> will it all be detected
[10:40] <summer_s4> does anyone have a list of third party sources for applacations?
[10:40] <MrPrimate> shiznit, what about it ?
[10:40] <c3LT1cFr05t> there is a micro soft channel on freenode dumbass
[10:40] <gld_> wine does work in AMD64
[10:40] <punzada> o.O
[10:40] <punzada> i was told it doesn't
[10:40] <ubuntuuser123> thanks guys, off to shrink that drive.
[10:41] <MrPrimate> summer_s4, try freshmeat website for grand software app list
[10:41] <riotkittie> c3LT1cFr05t: rather than being nasty or expecting us to be your irc guides, /list
[10:41] <gld_>  c3LT1cFr05t, you mean Microsoft?, haha
[10:41] <punzada> I was told both wine, and flash (for whatever reason) don't work on 64bit.
[10:41] <MrPrimate> wine works in 32-bit on 64 right ?
[10:41] <summer_s4> mrprimate:  i don't think so
[10:41] <MrPrimate> wine and flash need to be run in 32-bit libraries in 64-bit linux, also openoffice
[10:41] <gld_> I have wine running fine in AMD64, flash doesn't though
[10:41] <shiznit> MrPrimate, in windows x86 you can only have 4gb total ram, so my 768mg video ram is subtracted from the 4gb system ram and the OS can only see 3.2gb.  Will i have the same problem in ubuntu?
[10:41] <mac_> I cannot access to my home folder, it said : Nautilus has an expected error
[10:41] <howlingmadhowie> punzada: you can install it. wine itself relies explicitly on the intelx86 instruction set, but seeing as the AMD64 instruction set includes the intelx86, everything works :) you may need to install some 32-bit libraries
[10:41] <MrPrimate> flash runs using a 32-bit chroot on 64-bit box
[10:41] <riotkittie> punzada: you can get flash running on a 64bit
[10:41] <summer_s4> mrprimate: unless you have a 32 bit os
[10:42] <mac_>  I cannot access to my home folder, it said : Nautilus has an expected error. Help
[10:42] <MrPrimate> summer_s4, you can run a 32-bit chroot on a 64-bit box and run 32-bit apps such as flash
[10:42] <Bossmanbeta> I read that spelling words with numbers instead of letters is attributed to cerebrospinal fluid buildup inthe left parietal lobe...
[10:42] <punzada> I was reading one thing but it involved then using 32 bit firefox to use flash, kind of defeats the purpose ;/
[10:42] <MrPrimate> mac_, well if it expected an error, maybe it's meant to be
[10:43] <Bossmanbeta> i wonder if there's a pill for that disorder
[10:43] <schnoonix> anyone know what the support for WD SATA controllers are like ?
[10:43] <mac_> my dat all inside home folder, what can I do?
[10:43] <riotkittie> mac_: run nautilus from a terminal  and see if there is added output about the error
[10:43] <MrPrimate> punzada, but you still run all other app in 64-bit so not necessarily
[10:43] <howlingmadhowie> mac_: that's strange
[10:43] <MrPrimate> mac_, ls -ld /home/ and ls -ld /home/username,     are permissions ok ?
[10:43] <punzada> Primate, true, good point. Lots to think about with the new machine I'm building.
[10:44] <mac_> I am not good in cmd, step by step..
[10:44] <MrPrimate> mac_ possible you got corrupted ~/.nautilus ?
[10:44] <punzada> I'm scared to convert my other machine over to ubuntu, it has an ati card ;/
[10:44] <MrPrimate> punzada, i've used ati cards with linux successfully, there are both commercial and free drivers
[10:44] <riotkittie> Bossmanbeta: yes, it's called private school.
[10:44] <gld_> what particular ATI card?
[10:44] <Bossmanbeta> riotkittie, indeed
[10:44] <punzada> radeon9800 256meg
[10:45] <gld_> pro or family?
[10:45] <punzada> pro
[10:45] <MrPrimate> gld_, it's been a while, but radeon something-or-other
[10:45] <punzada> I would hope it's supported, it's a oldish card at this point
[10:45] <mac_> riotkittie: in terminal , initializing gnome -mount extenstion
[10:45] <punzada> one of the things that drives me nuts is not being able to run my window managers in resolutions that I like
[10:45] <MrPrimate> it was one of those funky cards on that oddball pci-express kinda 64-bit bus that was only on a few mobos and didnt live long
[10:45] <punzada> that alone is a key point to me running nix
[10:45] <punzada> lol
[10:46] <gld_> 9800pro doesn't work to the extent of my knowledge, the family edition does though, the other types that don't work are the X1300s
[10:46] <shiznit> punzada i cant even boot
[10:46] <punzada> o.O
[10:46] <mac_> any method to copy out the data from my home folder?
[10:46] <MrPrimate> X1300 works in linux, my friend has one, im almost certain that model
[10:46] <shiznit> my 8800gtx dont
[10:46] <gld_> I have one, and it definately doesnt
[10:46] <shiznit> at all
[10:46] <_aaa> can you copy from desktop to a CD?
[10:47] <MrPrimate> mac_, you probably want to fix your home folder, but you can recursively copy it somewhere to backup or whatever with cp -R
[10:47] <punzada> Hmm,
[10:47] <punzada> well I'll pop in the livecd and see how it goes when I finally move and send that machine over there
[10:47] <MrPrimate> _aaa, you can burn a CD with CD/DVD creator in gnome
[10:47] <dampierd_> hello
[10:47] <_aaa> ty
[10:47] <mac_> I cannot access to home foler how to backup my data. all inside home folder
[10:47] <punzada> It's faster then this laptop and I've gotten basically everything to work here (thank christ for that intel drivers fix)
[10:48] <dampierd_> can someone help me with ubuntu server
[10:48] <riotkittie> mac_ : you can't access it from a terminal?
[10:48] <dampierd_> access what?
[10:48] <riotkittie> the command line is your best friend, seriously.
[10:48] <MrPrimate> mac_,  try to type        cd / ; find home          see if it shows files in home
[10:48] <mac_> riotkittie: using terminal gives same error
[10:48] <shiznit> do dual monitors work in different resolutions in ubuntu?
[10:49] <MrPrimate> shiznit, yes, is possible setup
[10:49] <shiznit> possible? doesnt sound promisisng
[10:49] <MrPrimate> shiznit, in many configurations
[10:49] <riotkittie> mac_ > i thought that error occured when you ran nautilus from the term
[10:49] <dampierd_> anyone familiar with ubuntu server?
[10:49] <shiznit> MrPrimate, any clue how to get my nvidia to work?
[10:49] <mac_> riotkitti: yes
[10:49] <MrPrimate> shiznit, you can set them up to stretch the desktop, have one scroll to the size of the other, put them next to each other, as seperate workspaces, have one in text mode, anything you can think of
[10:49] <shiznit> wow not bad
[10:49] <MrPrimate> shiznit, did you install commercial nvidia driver?  is it listed in xorg.conf ?
[10:50] <mac_> riotkitti: is there a way I can copy out my data, vy important
[10:50] <riotkittie> mac_: in that case, try 'cd'  from a term
[10:50] <mac_> riotkitti: ok
[10:50] <mac_> riotkitti: done
[10:50] <mac_> whats next?
[10:50] <punzada> zo
[10:50] <shiznit> MrPrimate, i had to set the livecd to vga mode to install it because it booted to black scree
[10:50] <punzada> I've seen a few results on google with the 9800pro working
[10:51] <punzada> hmm
[10:51] <punzada> I'll have to just give it a go and see
[10:51] <shiznit> MrPrimate, after i installed it still booted to black, so i read the forums, apt-got the nvidia stuff, recofigured xserver as some people said and still nothing
[10:51] <mac_> how to use terminal to go to home folder?
[10:52] <riotkittie> cd alone should have taken you to ~ i believe
[10:52] <dampierd_> how do you set a windows environment in ubuntu server?
[10:52] <MrPrimate> shiznit, if you just want it to work regardless of slowness for now, use the vesa driver
[10:52] <MrPrimate> shiznit, choosing the vesa driver will most likely boot into X, but is probably slow
[10:52] <paranoid_ndroid> shiznit try installing the latest version
[10:52] <riotkittie> type ls
[10:52] <MrPrimate> shiznit, later you can try the nvidia driver or the free version
[10:53] <shiznit> MrPrimate, yes that works but it kinda sucks, my 24'' widescreen crt is running 1280x1028@76hz, kinda shitty and hurts my eyes
[10:53] <MrPrimate> dampierd_, by 'windows' environment, do you mean a graphical windowing system ?
[10:53] <mac_> riotkitti: I saw my data using ls
[10:53] <mac_> riotkitti:: how to copy out
[10:53] <Lorenz> hi
[10:53] <shiznit> MrPrimate, i have tried the apt-get nvidia-glx-new driver and still nothing
[10:53] <MrPrimate> shiznit, so your options are to try the different drivers available for nvidia cards --
[10:53] <shiznit> how do i do that
[10:54] <paranoid_ndroid> shiznit search the ubuntu how-tos
[10:54] <riotkittie> mac_: cp -R /home/username /where-ever-you-are-backing-up-to
[10:54] <shiznit> it should be this hard
[10:54] <shiznit> shouldnt
[10:54] <shiznit> 8880gtx has been out for a year
[10:54] <MrPrimate> shiznit, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_setup_nVidia_drivers_in_7.04
[10:54] <shiznit> ty
[10:54] <MrPrimate> shiznit, if you want to blame anyone, blame nvidia for not making proper drivers for linux
[10:54] <shiznit> i wasnt pointing the finger
[10:54] <riotkittie> i would try creating a new user account, seeing if you can open nautilus from that, and then if so, copy your old home to that account
[10:55] <MrPrimate> industry is beaten into submission by gates, and no respect for computing
[10:55] <riotkittie> submission indeed
[10:55] <nanonyme> MrPrimate, come one, hasn't the guy mostly retired?
[10:55] <MrPrimate> shiznit, did you try the 'nv' free driver ?
[10:56] <riotkittie> i want computer hardware, not microsoft hardware <shakes fist>
[10:56] <MrPrimate> nanonyme, i just think ms crippled the hell out of the computer industry
[10:56] <n-iCe> can any omne tell me a c copilator
[10:56] <n-iCe> pls
[10:56] <MrPrimate> computers should be about compatibility, everyone in the world, with any hardware, should be able to see any website, imo
[10:56] <BernardB> !wireless
[10:56] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:56] <nanonyme> heh
[10:56] <n-iCe> I need a C compiler name to download
[10:56] <n-iCe> gcc is the name?
[10:56] <n-iCe> gdcc i forgot
[10:57] <shiznit> MrPrivate, i tried nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new
[10:57] <nanonyme> MrPrimate, IE7 is much closer to that, btw
[10:57] <shiznit> no dice
[10:57] <dampierd_> can i run ubuntu and ubuntu server on the same box (one at a time, of course
[10:57] <momal> MS should just open source everything they have and everyone with a registed copy of windows sent a copy of ubuntu :p
[10:57] <MrPrimate> microsoft's version is: Microsoft customers can see sites on Microsoft-approved servers running Microsoft-supported code
[10:57] <riotkittie> for the longest time, my favourite drug store was shunning me due to my browser.  :o
[10:57] <riotkittie> i took my business elsewhere, and fired off a nasty letter
[10:57] <MrPrimate> i don't hate on closed source altogether, but anti-compatibility is evil
[10:57] <nanonyme> MrPrimate, it already follows standards much better than any of their earlier browesers
[10:57] <nanonyme> MrPrimate, as a result pages made for IE6 might not work in IE7
[10:57] <MrPrimate> nanonyme, its kind of a sluggly little guy though isnt it ? :)
[10:57] <MrPrimate> nanonyme, hahah
[10:58] <mac_> riotkittie: it shows :missing destination file operand after `/home/mac'
[10:58] <riotkittie> mac_: cp -R /home/username /where-ever-you-are-backing-up-to
[10:58] <MrPrimate> thanks to those guys i have to code everything two ways:   the worldwide standard way, and the microsoft way
[10:58] <MrPrimate> (microsoft way usually involves a jumping through burning hoops naked)
[10:58] <riotkittie> mac_: you need to give it a place to put the files... like another partition or external drive if you have one
[10:59] <MrPrimate> ooh yay 7.10 upgrade done, bbias rebooting into fantasyland
[10:59] <n-iCe> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[10:59] <shiznit> is it stable
[10:59] <n-iCe> How do I solve it?
[10:59] <erUSUL> mac_: do not forget the -a switch (cp -aR)
[10:59] <riotkittie> n-iCe: try sudo apt-get install build-essential
[10:59] <n-iCe> what i need to download to create executables?
[10:59] <mac_> riotkittie: don't understand
[10:59] <riotkittie> oh yea. -a. <smacks forehead and looks sheepish>
[10:59] <mac_> blur
[11:00] <mac_> riotkittie: pls enlighten again
[11:00] <riotkittie> mac_: you want to put the data somewhere else, do you not? you need to tell the cp command *where* the data is going
[11:00] <riotkittie> you are... copying and pasting in one step. you can't do it in two.

[11:05] <riotkittie> Fabi: if you installed the system, you have sudo access, which will allow you to preform tasks one would need root access for
[11:05] <riotkittie> deardeath: the version in the repos is compatibl.

[11:07] <schnoodles> ok i officially give up on installing linux
[11:07] <schnoodles> do you know if the 1.0 release willl have alot better sata2 support?
[11:07] <deardeath> schnoodles: Why? It's too easy.
[11:07] <riotkittie> fausto: check the topic in #ubuntu+1  ... i believe there's a link there
[11:07] <riotkittie> schnoodles: yea, why
[11:08] <schnoodles> because fiesty wasnt picking up my SATA2 drive at all
[11:08] <fausto> tanks riotkittie
[11:08] <riotkittie> fausto: actually, there's not a link but i bet they can tell you
[11:08] <sorsis> why my /dev/hdd is READ ONLY?
[11:08] <riotkittie> launchpad.com would be the place, one assumes
[11:08] <riotkittie> sorsis: uhhhhhhm. is it an NTFS partition?
[11:08] <sorsis> riotkittie: there is no partition
[11:09] <sorsis> riotkittie: the device is read only
[11:09] <sorsis> riotkittie: i can't edit it with parted
[11:09] <schnoodles> riotkittie, do you know anyone who has run into that problem and how they overcame it ?
[11:09] <riotkittie> um. can you have a /hd? without a partition :|
[11:09] <riotkittie> schnoodles > no, sorry.
[11:10] <riotkittie> sorsis: is it mounted?
[11:10] <sorsis> riotkittie: no. there is no file system.
[11:10] <sorsis> riotkittie: parted can't read disk label
[11:10] <riotkittie> sorsis: how ... bizarre.
[11:10] <neumind> wher i can find modern themes for ubuntu?

[11:18] <shiznit> off topic, but Eastern Promises was good
[11:18] <garette> Hi all, i have some paritions that mount on startup but when they mount the icon comes on desktop with a name that is the location where it is mounted, but i instead  want something else, how can i change?
[11:18] <deardeath> how can I change a folder's access groups on konsole?
[11:19] <volantares> howdy
[11:19] <deardeath> For instance I mounted my hda3 and hda5 to /mnt/windisk -/mnt/windows
[11:19] <deardeath> I can only reach those 2 folders with root access.
[11:19] <deardeath> Any ideas?
[11:19] <volantares> hi all
[11:19] <Andri[DK] > I have a silly question. I'm looking for the name of the system used when you make marks, like I II III IIII IIII (with a strike through)

[11:20] <garette> deardeath, you want to change the mounted partitions permissions or what?
[11:20] <volantares> it's umm
[11:20] <dube> Hey does anyone know if its possible to resize a partition while keeping the files on the partition about to be resized?
[11:20] <deardeath> garette: Aye
[11:20] <deardeath> dube: That's the idea.
[11:21] <garette> deardeath, try this if you mounted it on /mnt/winHD
[11:21] <TopoMorto> dube : Yes :)
[11:21] <garette> deardeath, sudo chmod -R 777 /mnt/winHD
[11:21] <Andri[DK] > deardeath: lol, no... the marks, not the characters... Like you'd use for a beer list where you make a mark, every time you get a beer
[11:21] <garette> deardeath,  i use that :-D
[11:21] <riotkittie> dube : its possible but be aware, any time you resize, you run the risk of data loss
[11:21] <dube> topomorto, how if you dont mind helping me :P
[11:21] <deardeath> What does 777 stand for?
[11:21] <deardeath> Your username's id?
[11:22] <garette> deardeath, did that work?
[11:22] <riotkittie> i cant give you odds success:fail, and i rarely have had issues
[11:22] <erUSUL> dube: it is possible but not risk free ;) (make backups of important stuff) I can tell that i never loosed any data resizing partitions but who knows
[11:22] <garette> deardeath, rwx permissions for every one
[11:22] <garette> you root and other users on comp
[11:22] <TopoMorto> dube: tell me which type of partition you need to rezize :) ext3, ext2, raiserfs, ntfs...
[11:22] <garette> deardeath, did that work?
[11:22] <deardeath> oh god
[11:22] <garette> deardeath, what?
[11:22] <deardeath> it made all of the files read only
[11:23] <garette> what???
[11:23] <dube> topomorto, its an ext2 partition that i want to be able to use with my windows partition
[11:23] <garette> deardeath, you mounted a ntfs partition?
[11:23] <deepfreez> Hello, i need a webpage how i see a good configuration for install apache + php ! i running kubuntu, tnx for help
[11:23] <deardeath> and I still can't access it.
[11:23] <garette> deardeath, try to use ntfs-3g
[11:23] <deardeath> garette: aye, I believe they are NTFS
[11:23] <garette> deardeath, try ntfs-3g
[11:24] <deardeath> I have no idea what that is.
[11:24] <shiznit> is automatix a good idea
[11:24] <garette> deardeath, and edit your fstab if you want that to boot at startup
[11:24] <elkbuntu> shiznit, absolutely not
[11:24] <TopoMorto> dube: you can do everithing with the ubuntu live cd and gparted, or if you like you can download gparted live cd :)
[11:24] <garette> deardeath, its an application that lets you write access to ntfs partitions on linux
[11:24] <shiznit> elkbuntu, y not
[11:24] <deardeath> garette:  The thing is, I can't enter the /mnt/windisk
[11:24] <deardeath> with a user that's not root.
[11:25] <garette> deardeath, via root or as user?
[11:25] <deardeath> with root access I can enter and do anything I want.
[11:25] <garette> deardeath, hey chmod -R 777 didn't help?
[11:25] <deardeath> nope
[11:25] <elkbuntu> shiznit, it has many problems. many people have come into this channel with major problems caused by it, such as their computer not being able to boot at all
[11:25] <deardeath> I still can't access the folder.
[11:25] <deardeath> with my current username.
[11:25] <shiznit> so dont use it?
[11:25] <dube> topomorto, i have gparted opened right now and im on a linux partition, the one I want to resize, it said I have to create a disklabel and that would destroy all my data
[11:25] <garette> deardeath, :-|
[11:26] <garette> deardeath, you gave -R option?
[11:26] <garette> capital R
[11:26] <garette> deardeath, case sensitive
[11:26] <deardeath> yeah
[11:26] <elkbuntu> shiznit, please do not use it
[11:26] <shiznit> elkbuntu, what if i already installed it and used it to get stuff
[11:26] <TopoMorto> dube: stop and wait a minute...
[11:26] <deardeath> root@****:/home/****# sudo chmod -R 777 /mnt/wind
[11:26] <riotkittie> automatix autobreaks it
[11:26] <shiznit> sorry i read somewhere it made linux easier
[11:27] <TopoMorto> dube: first open a terminal window
[11:27] <CokeNCode> lol
[11:27] <elkbuntu> shiznit, it would take a reinstall to undo the changes and to upgrade you will probably need to reinstall
[11:27] <garette> deardeath, LO:
[11:27] <garette> deardeath, lol
[11:27] <CokeNCode> automatix reallying ain't that bad
[11:27] <CokeNCode> jeeze
[11:27] <TopoMorto> and pastebin your partition tabele infos
[11:27] <CokeNCode> ppl really blow that out of proportion
[11:27] <garette> deardeath, what for sudo when you are su?
[11:27] <shiznit> i only installed a couple days ago, i dont mind doing it again if its that big a problem
[11:27] <CokeNCode> it's fine not to recommend it
[11:27] <riotkittie> CokeNCode: the people who have flocked to this channel whining about hosed boxes would beg to differ, one assumes
[11:27] <dube> topomorto, alright
[11:27] <Curs0r> Can I install ubuntu to a loopback file?
[11:27] <TopoMorto> dube: and pastebin your partition tabele infos
[11:27] <CokeNCode> but, all of a sudden a few ppl have problems, and they make it seem like the wrost thing ever made ... coz it's the 'cool' thing to do
[11:27] <elkbuntu> CokeNCode, actually it is that bad
[11:28] <shiznit> elkbuntu, so i wont be able to upgrade to gutsy?
[11:28] <elkbuntu> CokeNCode, it changes the fstab, and if it overrides applications it can remove most of gnome
[11:28] <garette>  Hi all, i have some paritions that mount on startup but when they mount the icon comes on desktop with a name that is the location where it is mounted, but i instead  want something else, how can i change?
[11:28] <elkbuntu> shiznit, we dont know yet, but previous upgrades like that have a high failure rate
[11:28] <riotkittie> no, not because it's the cool thing to do. because it's proven to be capable of causing major meltdowns, and we cant support it
[11:28] <CokeNCode> elkbuntu, well, i run it ... and my pc is just fine
[11:28] <riotkittie> nor should we be expected to
[11:28] <riotkittie> !worksforme
[11:28] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/
[11:29] <garette> deardeath, hey whats your status?
[11:29] <dube> topomorto, um, how do i check it :P
[11:29] <CokeNCode> i mean ... i wouldn't recommend it for a system that's gotta be up
[11:29] <marco_> where can i find latex help?
[11:29] <deardeath> garette:  I'm waiting these packages to download, then I'll login with Root.
[11:29] <CokeNCode> but most of these boxes running ubuntu ... aren't critical
[11:29] <TopoMorto> dube: open a terminal windows and make sudo -i then type your password
[11:29] <deardeath> there I'll fix it.
[11:29] <CokeNCode> ESPECIALLY anyone that's gonna load on automatix
[11:29] <shiznit> and everything automatix does is doable w/o it easily?
[11:29] <CokeNCode> if it breaks .. just do a reinstall
[11:30] <garette> deardeath, ntfs-3g?
[11:30] <Ott1> Hello people can someone what are options why my Ubuntu CD don`t boot on my laptop???
[11:30] <CokeNCode> shiznit, i think they recommend easyubuntu
[11:30] <elkbuntu> CokeNCode, nor should you recommend it to an absolute newbie, since they'd not have a clue what to do if it blows up, and then they think it is ubuntu that is the crap, not automatix
[11:30] <riotkittie> CokeNCode: something tells me that ubuntu's core user base <who are new to linux, or at best, recent converts> do not look at reinstalls with such glee
[11:30] <CokeNCode> elkbuntu, that's a fair point
[11:30] <shiznit> well im not that stupid
[11:30] <shiznit> i just dont like all the command line crap
[11:30] <deebo> any tips for a software to analyze a broken raid5?
[11:30] <riotkittie> they expect it to "just work"
[11:31] <CokeNCode> i hope we don't become like microsoft
[11:31] <dube> topomorto, alright then what?
[11:31] <deebo> i rebooted and it just didnt come up, and now i cant mount the ext3 on it, says bad superblock
[11:31] <CokeNCode> and start thinking that our users are dumb
[11:31] <TopoMorto> dube: then type "fdisk -l >> mypartion"
[11:31] <neumind> wher i can find good themes for fluxbox on ubuntu?
[11:31] <elkbuntu> shiznit, if all you want is codecs, they now get installed when you try run the media file
[11:31] <Fabi> Can some1 help me with my terminal ? I need to install Java but i cant enter any root password
[11:31] <shiznit> ok downloaded the x86 alternate cd, knock on wood that nvidia works this time damn it
[11:32] <punzada> I never understood the point of automatrix, it's not that hard to install things or even to compile from source if you just actually read the instructions even if you're an absolute beginner.
[11:32] <gld_> Fabi, password doesn't show inb terminal, but it is being inputted
[11:32] <Fabi> and whats the password ?
[11:32] <gld_> just type it then press enter
[11:32] <shiznit> punzada, if you have never compiled anything ever its kinda lame
[11:32] <punzada> I like the simplicity of things like the synaptic package manager but I don't see the point in using Automatrix if it has such problems.
[11:32] <gld_> your user password
[11:32] <TopoMorto> then "chmod yourusename.yourusername mypartition"
[11:32] <dube> topomorto, alright now i havnt done this in a while, so wheres the pastebin :/
[11:32] <punzada> shiznit, I did only install unbuntu about 3 weeks ago
[11:32] <TopoMorto> then open firefox
[11:32] <punzada> :)
[11:32] <shiznit> the most i have ever compiled is counter strike levels lol
[11:33] <punzada> was my first time compiling and such as my previous linux experiences never left live cds
[11:33] <riotkittie> if you dont want to think people are dumb, why praise automatix? that's sheer laziness, and robs newbies of an opportunity to experience and learn, imo.
[11:33] <garette>  Hi all, i have some paritions that mount on startup but when they mount the icon comes on desktop with a name that is the location where it is mounted, but i instead  want something else, how can i change?
[11:33] <Fabi> Authentication failure
[11:33] <shiznit> good point, i wont use it from now on
[11:33] <TopoMorto> go to www.pastebin.ca
[11:33] <gld_> is it the correct password for the user?
[11:33] <Fabi> yes
[11:33] <shiznit> ok wish me luck for nvidia, here it goes
[11:33] <Fabi> its my password with i am logged in
[11:34] <gld_> Is that user the administrator for the computer?
[11:34] <volantares> nvidia hates ubuntu
[11:34] <riotkittie> shiznit: break a leg, and not a box :P
[11:34] <Fabi> yes
[11:34] <shiznit> srsly
[11:34] <punzada> However, this is the most user friendly distro I've used bar-none. I remember sitting at a terminal in slack like two years ago confused as hell.
[11:34] <shiznit> fucking black screen
[11:34] <gld_> what is the command you ran?
[11:34] <TopoMorto> and paste the content os mypartition un the thext box
[11:34] <punzada> I thought ati hated ubuntu and nvidia loved it long time?
[11:34] <elkbuntu> !ohmy
[11:34] <ubotu> Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:34] <riotkittie> lol. i started with slack. good times, good times.
[11:34] <Fabi> su
[11:34] <punzada> that's what I alwasy read ;/
[11:34] <TopoMorto> then press submit post
[11:34] <garette> shiznit, language :O
[11:34] <gld_> there is no 'su' in ubuntu, use sudo
[11:34] <Fabi> its su for java
[11:35] <volantares> they both hate it then. nvidia doesn't offer specific instructions for ubuntu
[11:35] <punzada> slack is a good way to jump right in and scare the shit outta you :)
[11:35] <penguincentral> !language | shiznit
[11:35] <ubotu> shiznit: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:35] <gld_> if you need to be root to do something, go sudo <command>
[11:35] <TopoMorto> dube:compy the recived link in the chat
[11:35] <garette>  Hi all, i have some paritions that mount on startup but when they mount the icon comes on desktop with a name that is the location where it is mounted, but i instead  want something else, how can i change?
[11:35] <dube> topomorto, thanks http://www.pastebin.ca/719454
[11:35] <punzada> long as i can get compizfusion running on my ati box, I will be a happy individual
[11:36] <riotkittie> garette: create new mountpoints, and then edit  /etc/fstab to point those partitions to those mountpoints
[11:36] <TopoMorto> now i can see your partition ifos :))
[11:36] <bullgard4> What is the reason that kudzu is not to be found in the Ubuntu repositories?
[11:36] <volantares> !fstab
[11:36] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[11:36] <riotkittie> bullgard4: because nobody put it there, one assumes
[11:36] <TopoMorto> tell me what patition are you trying to resize?
[11:37] <bullgard4> riotkittie: Stop  trolling.
[11:37] <garette> riotkittie, no i am fine with the mount points, i just want to change the label of that parition like i have a 40 gig parition mounted on ~/Music but it shows me the entire name on tghe desktop icon of that parition instead i just want music
[11:37] <garette> riotkittie, the**
[11:37] <dube> topomorto, ive been looking on how to register to make this faster but i cant find it lol
[11:38] <riotkittie> bullgard4: i wasn't trolling. i was answering your question with the best answer that i had. i'm sorry that you found it lacking.
[11:38] <elkbuntu> bullgard4, he's not trolling, it's the truth
[11:38] <garette> riotkittie, cause with those long names my desktop icons look wierd :(
[11:38] <garette> riotkittie, how do i change those names? any idea??
[11:39] <TopoMorto> dube: tell me which partition are you tryng to resize
[11:39] <riotkittie> garette: i'm not really sure, sorry
[11:39] <gld_> garette, it is just stating the mount point, change the name of the mount poin
[11:39] <gld_> *point
[11:39] <dube> topomorto, sda3
[11:39] <garette> gld_, LOL i dont want to mount on /Music
[11:39] <TopoMorto> dube ithink /dev/sda3
[11:40] <TopoMorto> so is /dev/sda3 mounted?
[11:40] <deepfreez> apache2: apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for homelinux
[11:40] <deepfreez> apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName
[11:40] <dube> topomorto, its the one im currently on
[11:40] <gld_> garette, what does it say at the moment, and what do you want it to say
[11:40] <deepfreez> how i can resolved this error ? i running kubuntu
[11:40] <TopoMorto> you cannot rezize a mounted partition...
[11:40] <garette> gld_, it still shows /home/user/Music, i want Music
[11:41] <dube> topomorto, can i unmount it?
[11:41] <cyne> if i have an existing install of ubuntu and i install edubuntu, with guided partition, will the entire partition be wiped clean or do i need to do a manual partition to do that?
[11:41] <gld_> garette, have you tried rightclick, properties?
[11:41] <garette> gld_, i did right click but no option to rename
[11:42] <TopoMorto> dube: you must reboot and start using the live cd... or personally Raccomanded Download and burn Gparted Live cd
[11:42] <riotkittie> as far as i know, the only way to do it, is to change the mountpoint
[11:42] <garette> gld_, even the same it doesn't allow me to change name
[11:42] <garette> gld_, :(
[11:42] <dube> topomorto, bah i dont have any blanks with me, but when i do i can just burn gparted live and run it and itll be simple?
[11:42] <garette> gld_, i am worried, it looks so wierd with those long name with "/"es in between :(
[11:43] <gld_> garette, rightclick rename?
[11:43] <garette> gld_, that is disabled
[11:43] <Fabi> I'm back :D
[11:43] <TopoMorto> sube you can find the live cd iso here http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=115843&package_id=173828
[11:43] <garette> gld_, like i am not allowed is what it want to say to me
[11:43] <TopoMorto> dube you can find the live cd iso here http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=115843&package_id=173828
[11:43] <dube> sweet thanks
[11:44] <gld_> garette, rightclick, properties, Volume, Mountpoint
[11:44] <Fabi> The terminal wouldn't work :'(
[11:44] <garette> gld_, leme
[11:44] <TopoMorto> once runned, the resize is very very easy :)
[11:44] <gld_> garette, leme?
[11:44] <Fabi> can some1 help me ? http://www.java.com/en/download/help/5000010500.xml#rpm
[11:44] <dube> topomorto, thank you so much :)
[11:45] <garette> gld_, hey but that will change the mount point
[11:45] <garette> gld_, ?
[11:45] <TopoMorto> bye :))
[11:45] <gld_> yes, but that will also change the name
[11:45] <Fabi> Can some1 helpme with http://www.java.com/en/download/help/5000010500.xml#rpm ? i can't enter the rootpassword
[11:45] <garette> gld_, but still i will have "/" in the name as everything should be inder one big /
[11:46] <garette> gld_, under**
[11:46] <deepfreez> Hello i have a problem : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39005/ , how i can resolved this?
[11:46] <garette> gld_, ??
[11:46] <garette> gld_, wait lemme tell you one more thing
[11:46] <gld_> garette, is it mounting a folder from another disk?
[11:47] <gld_> ok
[11:47] <Fabi> Can some1 helpme with http://www.java.com/en/download/help/5000010500.xml#rpm ? i can't enter the rootpassword
[11:47] <flake> what's up Fabi
[11:47] <Fabi> I can't enter the root password
[11:48] <flake> you don't have one set for the root?
[11:48] <garette> gld_,  like i used windows once i changed the label of a ext3 drive using some windows application
[11:48] <Nalleman> hi. When I look at pictures with gthumb i get no thumbnails, probably because the pictures are on a ntfs disk. Have someone here encountered, and solved, this problem=
[11:48] <Fabi> i don't think so
[11:49] <TopoMorto> Fabi: try "sudo -i" without quotes
[11:49] <TopoMorto> Fabi: then type your password
[11:49] <flake> sudo root works for me, don't know if that's appropriate tho
[11:49] <gld_> garette, i'm not sure I understand what you are saying, Do you mean you are accessing an ext3 partition from windows?
[11:49] <garette> gld_, yeah i did it once when i used windows
[11:49] <Fabi> ok and now ?
[11:50] <flake> oops maybe not
[11:50] <joe84> I have a quick question: can you burn a regular iso to a DVD?
[11:50] <garette> gld_, so i changed the label or rename that parition there
[11:50] <Tomcat_> joe84: Yes.
[11:50] <MrPrimate> joe84, you can,... k3b won't do it, but cdrecord will
[11:50] <joe84> ok thanks :)
[11:50] <TopoMorto> Fabi: follow the tutorial...
[11:50] <MrPrimate> sorry, k3b might do it, it won't burn bin/cue to a dvd, bt maybe iso
[11:50] <Fabi> ok ty
[11:51] <gld_> garette, that might be the reason. Your situation is to specialised for me. Sorry. Try asking on ubuntuforums
[11:51] <garette> gld_, and now on ubuntu whenever i mount that parition it shows only that name
[11:51] <gld_> garette, try going and undoing what you did in windows
[11:52] <garette> gld_, hey what i did in widnows help me in what i wanted
[11:52] <garette> gld_,  like the thing which i did in windows changed the label of a prition to a single owrd
[11:52] <garette> gld_, btw i don't have windows now i removed it :)
[11:52] <chimerazz> can some one help in fixing tv tuner in ubuntu
[11:53] <IndyGunFreak> chimerazz: depends on the tvtuner

[11:57] <decay> magnetron, the reason i want to use telnet now is because im following examples in this book i got. =(
[11:58] <IndyGunFreak> chimerazz: what tv app are you using?
[11:58] <hammer123> what command i use to install deluge-torrent on my ubuntu?
[11:58] <magnetron> decay: i gave you instructions for both. however, telnet is insecure and ssh is a drop-in replacement for it
[11:58] <magnetron> !deluge | hammer123
[11:58] <ubotu> hammer123: deluge is a new Bittorrent client, created using Python and GTK+, intended to bring a native, full-featured client to !GTK environments such as GNOME and Xfce - See http://deluge-torrent.org/ for more information or http://download.deluge-torrent.org/stable/ubuntu/feisty/ for downloading.

[11:58] <chimerazz> IndyGunFreak: tv time
[11:59] <decay> magnetron, alright. thanks. ill install ssh
[11:59] <IndyGunFreak> chimerazz: i dont' know, i always had trouble getting TV time to configure properly, so i'd use KDE TV, and it always worked.
[11:59] <chimerazz> IndyGunFreak:  Video works fine no audio
[11:59] <magnetron> decay: to connect to localhost, type ' ssh localhost '
[11:59] <IndyGunFreak> chimerazz: yeah..., same problem i had with a pixelview card.
[11:59] <TopoMorto> chimerraz : have you tryed with mplayer?
[11:59] <IndyGunFreak> chimerazz: have you checked your output volume on your sound settings?
[11:59] <hammer123> magnetron, thanks
[11:59] <chimerazz> IndyGunFreak:  so what to do

[12:01] <gld_> garette, what was it?
[12:01] <garette> gld-, so what ever change that is to be done by root
[12:01] <IndyGunFreak> chimerazz: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=41123  see if that thread makes any sense
[12:02] <gld_> garette, ah, that would do it.... or you could change the permissions
[12:02] <chimerazz> IndyGunFreak:   i have fm tuner in it & would like to hear from gnome radio
[12:02] <garette> gld_, there is an option label in the properties , like if i login as root i might change that

[12:04] <pirxx> any ssh tunnel plugin for network manager available? Don't like to use GSTM.
[12:04] <garette> neumind, sudo apt-get install gdm gdm-themes gdm-themes-extra
[12:04] <chimerazz> neumind: its easy just open login manager
[12:04] <chimerazz> neumind: now select local tab
[12:04] <pirxx> gld_: my ubuntu does not allow log in as root from the login window
[12:04] <garette> gld_, hello

[12:05] <IndyGunFreak> chimerazz: yes
[12:05] <penguincentral> namiwawa: utorrent in wine
[12:05] <penguincentral> ;)
[12:05] <pirxx> gld_: garette is right

[12:05] <garette> pirxx, you know how do i login as root?
[12:06] <chimerazz> first install sudo apt-get gdm
[12:06] <IndyGunFreak> little backwards there.
[12:06] <pirxx> open a terminal
[12:06] <gld_> pirxx, Hmmmmm..... mine works like that
[12:06] <pirxx> type su
[12:06] <garette> pirxx, yeah
[12:06] <pirxx> enter password
[12:06] <IndyGunFreak> !su
[12:06] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:06] <chimerazz> neumind: now install gdm-themes
[12:06] <pirxx> gld_: ubuntu 7.04 default config?
[12:06] <garette> pirxx,  mine says password incorrect
[12:07] <shiznit> i have a big proble,
[12:07] <shiznit> problem
[12:07] <chimerazz> neumind: now  run gnome-control-center
[12:07] <bullgard4> What is the reason that kudzu is not to be found in the Ubuntu repositories?
[12:07] <garette> pirxx, like i can do it via sudo su :)
[12:07] <garette> pirxx, ;)
[12:07] <shiznit> i just enabled the restricted nvidia driver and it rebooted to command line
[12:07] <neumind> slow down
[12:07] <shiznit> wtf
[12:07] <IndyGunFreak> garette: you probably don't have a su - password, use sudo
[12:07] <pirxx> garette: when you installed ubuntu, you chose a password for root
[12:07] <chimerazz> IndyGunFreak:  what to do for audio
[12:07] <gld_> garette pirxx, su doesn't work in ubuntu. Unknown config, i've done alsorts to this install, there is a terminal command for changing permissions, chroot, or chmod or something
[12:07] <shiznit> how do i get the gui back
[12:07] <IndyGunFreak> pirxx: use sudo.
[12:07] <IndyGunFreak> chimerazz: i really don't know...
[12:07] <garette> pirxx, sudo su works for me
[12:08] <garette> gld_, yeah chmod is the commadn
[12:08] <timothywcrane> a little trick for sudo. right click Applications and add an application in terminal command ( sudo -i) and add it to your menu. easy sudo access baby, just enter pass
[12:08] <shiznit> someone help
[12:08] <IndyGunFreak> garette: just use sudo, no need to sudo su
[12:08] <chimerazz> neumind: now  select login manager
[12:08] <pirxx> IndyGunFreak: i was referring to gartettes issue. no probs here
[12:08] <garette> gld_ but the icons doesn't show up in termina;
[12:08] <chimerazz> neumind:  r u there
[12:08] <garette> ok
[12:08] <neumind> chimerazz:  SLOW DOWN!!!
[12:08] <IndyGunFreak> pirxx: i know, but you were suggesting using su .. most ubuntu users don't set a password for root, because you're not asked to during install.
[12:09] <MoNjE> hello
[12:09] <gld_> garette, haha, what is the mount point? /media/?
[12:09] <garette> pirxx, yeah i didn't set password for su too..
[12:09] <lut4rp> hello
[12:09] <shiznit> i just enabled the restricted nvidia driver and after reboot im in text mode
[12:09] <chimerazz> neumind:  did you install  gdm
[12:09] <shiznit> anyone know how to fix
[12:09] <IndyGunFreak> garette: very few do, use sudo
[12:09] <neumind> chimerazz: NO
[12:09] <garette> gld_, no /home/user/music
[12:09] <pirxx> InduGunFreak: wow, is it possible to install ubuntu without setting root password?
[12:09] <IndyGunFreak> its by design
[12:09] <Veggie> shiznit: Roll back x.org
[12:09] <shiznit> veggie, how
[12:09] <IndyGunFreak> pirxx: you're here and you don't know that?
[12:09] <garette> IndyGunFreak, how do i set it now?
[12:09] <neumind> E: Invalid operation gdm-manager
[12:09] <IndyGunFreak> garette: don't
[12:09] <lut4rp> shiznit: do ctrl alt backspace
[12:09] <garette> pirxx, yes it is possible
[12:09] <neumind> chimerazz: E: Invalid operation gdm-manager
[12:10] <shiznit> lut4rp, its doesnt do anything
[12:10] <pirxx> InduGunFreak: whenever I install any distro of Linux, I always set root password
[12:10] <chimerazz> neumind:   sudo apt-get install gdm gdm-themes
[12:10] <cyne> i have installed edubuntu but there is no "education" menu under "Applications" -- but it was there on the live cd
[12:10] <Veggie> lut4rp: That'll just restart X. I meant, revert to a previous version of x.org config
[12:10] <garette> pirxx, anyways try soving my problem its plz
[12:10] <beni> Can I install Ubuntu 7.04 From the LiveCD WITH dm-crypt ? So directly create a crypted main partition like the Debian Setup offers?
[12:10] <lut4rp> shiznit: are u sure? are u in kubuntu?
[12:10] <IndyGunFreak> pirxx: well, then you should install ubuntu sometime.
[12:10] <neumind> chimerazz:  OK NOW NEXT?
[12:11] <garette> IndyGunfreak, ;)
[12:11] <shiznit> lut4rp, no i am in ubunty, staring at a dos-line command line
[12:11] <chimerazz> neumind:   every thing done
[12:11] <lut4rp> veggie: i think thats too big an issue for him to handle.. man, simply reinstall the thing
[12:11] <beni> pirxx: and?
[12:11] <shiznit> it asked me to reconfigure x but it didnt work
[12:11] <timothywcrane> right click Applications to edit menus, it might be simply unchecked
[12:11] <pirxx> InduGunFreak: this is ubunut 7.04. It did prompt me for root password upon install. Your thoughts, please
[12:11] <Veggie> Oh, what's the command to reconfigure x?
[12:11] <lut4rp> shiznit: reinstall ubuntu
[12:11] <shiznit> y
[12:11] <lut4rp> shiznit: :)
[12:11] <Veggie> That'll be easier.
[12:11] <shiznit> wtf thanks
[12:11] <gld_> garette, try asking someone who is familiar with changing folder permissions with terminal. I am out of my depth here
[12:11] <neumind> chimerazz: NOW HOW CHANGE THEME?
[12:11] <Veggie> You shouldn't need to re-install.
[12:11] <shiznit> no shit
[12:12] <garette> gld_, i myself know hot to change ;)
[12:12] <IndyGunFreak> garette: what distribution do you use?
[12:12] <Veggie> Just re-configure X. There's a command for it, but I can't remember it.
[12:12] <shiznit> cant i just disable nvidia
[12:12] <chimerazz> neumind:   what do you use gnome or kde
[12:12] <namiwawa> torrent gurus where u @
[12:12] <beni> Can I install Ubuntu 7.04 From the LiveCD WITH dm-crypt ? So directly create a crypted main partition like the Debian Setup offers?
[12:12] <shiznit> and pick what in x, nvidia?
[12:12] <garette> IndyGunFreak, Ubuntu Feist +gentoo dual boot
[12:12] <T> hey
[12:12] <neumind> chimerazz: GNOME..
[12:12] <beni> !bittornado | namiwana
[12:12] <Veggie> shiznit: Yeah, that'll disable it.
[12:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bittornado - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:12] <shiznit> this is ridicuous
[12:12] <beni> !bittorrent | namiwana
[12:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bittorrent - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:12] <Veggie> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:12] <namiwawa> bit tornado is veyr un user friendly
[12:12] <IndyGunFreak> pirxx: what distro are you using?
[12:12] <beni> oh f*ck it ;)
[12:12] <Veggie> Put that into a command line, and follow it from there.
[12:12] <namiwawa> cant do more than one download
[12:13] <timothywcrane> locate nvidia and there should  be a restore function
[12:13] <neumind> chimerazz: ?
[12:13] <IndyGunFreak> garette:  ok, are you new to linux?
[12:13] <chimerazz> neumind:   now select  system->administration->login manager
[12:13] <pirxx> InduGunFreak: ubuntu 7.04, the standard one.
[12:13] <beni> namiwawa: It does. You need to start it multiple times, each for each download
[12:13] <garette> IndyGunFreak, not very
[12:13] <IndyGunFreak> pirxx: and you don't remember that it iddn't ask you for a root password?
[12:13] <namiwawa> wow ..benii....thats a hussle ok let me seee
[12:13] <garette> IndyGunFreak, but i don't know this thing...
[12:13] <garette> IndyGunFreak, btw you know my prob??
[12:13] <lut4rp> /leave
[12:13] <chimerazz> neumind: sorry its login window
[12:14] <neumind> chimerazz: TY I FIND IT
[12:14] <pirxx> InduGunFreak: it did ask me for root password, of course.
[12:14] <IndyGunFreak> garette: ok.. no big deal...,
[12:14] <namiwawa> its asking me to choose a file
[12:14] <garette> IndyGunFreak, i have paritions that mount on startup,
[12:14] <IndyGunFreak> garette: no not really
[12:14] <beni> namiwawa: I'm always opening them in Firefox from my fav torrent site, and then for each torrent a bittornado client starts
[12:14] <namiwawa> which file does it want @beni
[12:14] <IndyGunFreak> pirxx: no it didn't, none of the ubuntu installers do.. you have to set it after install to have a root password
[12:14] <IndyGunFreak> garette: ok.. and thats a problem why?
[12:14] <garette> IndyGunFreak, and i want to change the label of those paritions  which is done by , right click >>properties
[12:14] <chimerazz> neumind:  now click local tab
[12:15] <beni> pirxx: in the new ubuntu installations there is NO root password. The root account may only be used via sudo or sudo su!
[12:15] <IndyGunFreak> garette: change the label?
[12:15] <garette> IndyGunFreak, but it shows that the parition is owen by root
[12:15] <momal> shiznit: I havn't looked at everything you have said... but you might want to try running nvidias xconfig which will set it to run with nvidia drivers(from there website if you installed them earlier)
[12:15] <namiwawa> beni : u know like in windows.. they just pile up in the torrent
[12:15] <namiwawa> and keep downloading
[12:15] <garette> IndyGunFreak, yeah change the labe .. like rename a parition in windows
[12:15] <namiwawa> is it any different in Ubuntu
[12:15] <garette> IndyGunFreak, label**
[12:15] <beni> namiwawa: nope, not really
[12:15] <pirxx> InduGunFreak: Then, why do I have a different password for root and one for my account and both work. For example, with the SU I use my root password....
[12:15] <IndyGunFreak> garette:  not sure on that, i think yhou'd need to chmod it, but not positive.
[12:15] <garette> IndyGunFreak, so i cant change the label for parition owned by root
[12:15] <naranha> is there a seperate gutsy channel?
[12:16] <namiwawa> beni:u mind showing me how
[12:16] <pirxx> InduGunFreak: It definitely prompted me on install for entering a root password
[12:16] <chimerazz> IndyGunFreak:   i hab a prob with compiz fusion
[12:16] <IndyGunFreak> pirxx: because youd did afterwards, you probably followed some instructions somewhere that told you to do it, or someone here did, who knows, i just know you didn't do it during install.
[12:16] <chimerazz> neumind:  r u there
[12:16] <garette> IndyGunFreak, chmod changes names for files but not for icon.. this is just a icon which is created by root so i am b=not able to change properties of this icon
[12:16] <will_> anyone know how to chage permissions recursively on a dir for the current user?
[12:16] <IndyGunFreak> chimerazz: i hate compiz.. used it for like 2 days.. so i don't mess with it anymore.. can't help,s orry.
[12:16] <pirxx> InduGunFreak: I do recall it was a window during install.
[12:16] <shiznit> ok its rebooting this better work or might give up
[12:16] <neumind> chimerazz:  yeah.. i cant find wher i can add own theme
[12:16] <beni> namiwawa: install bittornado via sudo apt-get install bittornado bittornado-gui
[12:16] <garette> IndyGunFreak, which i will be able to do if i login as root, but i don't have su configured
[12:16] <garette> IndyGunFreak, how so i do it :)
[12:16] <garette> IndyGunFreak, ?
[12:17] <namiwawa> i have installed
[12:17] <chimerazz> now click  add
[12:17] <shiznit> ok i see a splash screen :)
[12:17] <IndyGunFreak> garette: i don't understand what you're doing to be truthful, but logging in as root isn't the issue.
[12:17] <pirxx> InduGunFreak: and i do believe that is the issue that garette faces. He may have entered a pw for root
[12:17] <shiznit> veggie ty
[12:17] <IndyGunFreak> pirxx: well, thats his own fault
[12:17] <garette> IndyGunFreak, well if you can help me logging in as root i will be thank ful.. cause  that can solve my problem i am sure
[12:18] <namiwawa> beni: i have it already
[12:18] <namiwawa> i have it installed
[12:18] <IndyGunFreak> garette: if root can do it, so can sudo, pure and simple.  VERY VERY VERY rarely, is it necessary for a ubuntu user to be root... sudo works fine
[12:18] <pirxx> InduGunFreak: of course, but that does not solve the prob
[12:18] <chimerazz> neumind:   now select the tar.gz file you have created or downloaded
[12:18] <beni> namiwawa: and now go on a torrent site and download a torrent file, and choose "open" in firefox
[12:18] <garette> IndyGunFreak, logging into gnome as root is what i meant so i want to create root :)
[12:18] <namiwawa> done that
[12:18] <IndyGunFreak> garette: sorry, can't help you.
[12:18] <neumind> chimerazz: yeah... and then what?
[12:18] <pirxx> garette, what is it you need to do
[12:18] <pirxx> ?
[12:19] <namiwawa> then it goes to the default bit torrent
[12:19] <beni> namiwawa: and bittornado should start automatically
[12:19] <naranha> Is there a separate irc channel just for ubuntu gutsy?
[12:19] <IndyGunFreak> trying to change permissions on a partition i think
[12:19] <garette> pirxx, to have a separate su :)
[12:19] <will_>  anyone know how to chage permissions recursively on a dir for the current user?
[12:19] <pirxx> garette: I mean, logging on as root
[12:19] <shiznit> anyone know how to enable nvidia driver so it doesnt reboot to text mode?
[12:19] <garette> pirxx, and to be able to login as root
[12:19] <Veggie> shiznit: It worked?
[12:19] <namiwawa> beni: ahhh ok i seee now
[12:19] <IndyGunFreak> garette: even if you hvae a separate super user, ubuntu doesn't allow them to log in the GUI, i do believe
[12:19] <namiwawa> already am downloading a file its 86%
[12:19] <shiznit> veggie yes im back to what it was at first
[12:19] <chimerazz> neumind : now select  Theme: Selected Only
[12:19] <beni> namiwawa: if you want to remove bittorrent sudo apt-get remove bittorrent
[12:19] <garette> IndyGunFreak, i logged in to gui as root on debian
[12:19] <namiwawa> beni: my worry is it doesnt show multiple downloads on one window
[12:19] <Veggie> So are you using a nvidia card?
[12:19] <shiznit> yes
[12:20] <shiznit> 8800gtx
[12:20] <garette> IndyGunFreak, isn't ubuntu debian like?
[12:20] <IndyGunFreak> garette: debian is different from Ubuntu, as debian uses root accounts, Ubuntu does not
[12:20] <jonnymac> !usb
[12:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about usb - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:20] <will_> zzz
[12:20] <pirxx> garette, I understand. But then. why not create a separate user?
[12:20] <namiwawa> beni: ok hold a sec
[12:20] <beni> namiwawa: yeh, but thats bittornado :/ sorry if i misunderstood you
[12:20] <Veggie> Meh, I can't really help you. I've never used those drivers myself.
[12:20] <chimerazz> neumind : select the added theme radio buttom and click close
[12:20] <momal> shiznit: did you check to see X's logs to see why it went to textmode.
[12:20] <IndyGunFreak> garette: its based on debian, but there are difference, one of them is in how the two handle root privliges
[12:20] <garette> pirxx , how do i create
[12:20] <shiznit> how?
[12:20] <garette> IndyGunFreak, :(
[12:20] <jonnymac> why doesn't my external hard drive unmount on ubuntu and it does on Windows?
[12:20] <chimerazz> any one who cAN HELP WITH COMPIZ
[12:20] <Veggie> Ubuntu locks the root account, Debian doesn't.
[12:20] <momal> shiznit: /var/log/Xorg.0.log or .1.log
[12:20] <namiwawa> beni: we are on the same page, i want tornado i dont want bittorrent
[12:21] <IndyGunFreak> Veggie: i've tried to tell him that half a dozen times
[12:21] <garette> IndyGunFreak, then how on earth will i be able to change the label of a partition
[12:21] <pirxx> garette: System/Administration/Users & Groups
[12:21] <beni> namiwawa: then remove bittorrent by typing sudo apt-get remove bittorrent in console
[12:21] <garette> pirxx, lemme try
[12:21] <IndyGunFreak> garette: what filesystem is the partition you need access to?
[12:21] <garette> IndyGunFreak, ext3
[12:21] <garette> IndyGunFreak, i have only linux
[12:21] <pirxx> garette, there you can create root, if he ais not existing
[12:22] <Veggie> shiznit: Read this, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=561199
[12:22] <Malmsdoom> jonnymac: my hd does unmount correctly
[12:22] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[12:22] <shiznit> momal, what exactly am i looking for
[12:22] <IndyGunFreak> !root
[12:22] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[12:22] <chimerazz> any one who cAN HELP WITH COMPIZ fusion
[12:22] <neumind> chimerazz: i cant add theme..

[12:25] <neumind> chimerazz: i cant add theme..
[12:25] <momal> shiznit: if you tried to install the nvidia drivers (from the website) then let it configure the xorg.conf file for you then it should work fine. sometimes if you have the package drivers on it trys to use them all the time.
[12:25] <vsayikiran> ubotu: who is obotu?
[12:25] <Veggie> shiznit: It looks like you didn't install the nvidia drivers.
[12:25] <garette> IndyGunFreak, so how do i change label now?
[12:25] <garette> IndyGunFreak, :-
[12:25] <garette> IndyGunFreak, :-P

[12:26] <ubotu> chimerazz: 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!
[12:26] <Ero_Otaku> hi there

[12:27] <wabiD> is there a way to have my window list sort like items next to each other?
[12:27] <Ero_Otaku> I'm migrating soon
[12:27] <IndyGunFreak> kevix: don't listen to chimerazz he clearly is clueless..
[12:27] <momal> shiznit: you will have to close X first
[12:27] <pirxx> garette: use qtparted.

[12:27] <vsayikiran> i want to know how to update time from ntp servers behind a proxy server
[12:27] <Ero_Otaku> I just wanna know if 7.04 supports NTFS
[12:27] <garette> pirxx,hehe yeah i think
[12:27] <momal> shiznit: and get the necassary libraries/compiling tools if you don't already have them
[12:27] <shiznit> i have never compiled anyting
[12:27] <kevix> chimerazz: will look into it. thx.
[12:28] <shiznit> doesnt it have a driver in the repo
[12:28] <Veggie> Ero_Otaku: You'll need the ntfs-3g drivers, if you want to write, iirc.
[12:28] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: what are you trying to compile?
[12:28] <shiznit> apparently i have to compile the nvidia driver
[12:28] <Ero_Otaku> What's that ? Sorry, I'm completely noob to linux
[12:28] <deepfreez> Hello i running ubuntu and i typed: usermod -a -G www-data deepfreez , how i can removed www-data for my permision?
[12:28] <shiznit> even though the os dowloaded onw
[12:28] <shiznit> one*
[12:28] <Veggie> !ntfs-3g
[12:28] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[12:28] <garette> pirxx, check this link http://www.lissot.net/partition/ext2fs/labels.html
[12:28] <momal> shiznit: well... not sure if it does but thats the latest ones i use fine.
[12:28] <pirxx> garette: sudo qtparted
[12:28] <shiznit> 8800?
[12:28] <Ero_Otaku> thansk
[12:29] <Veggie> S'alright.
[12:29] <momal> i have a 7800 on this computer but my friend has run linux before on his 8800gts
[12:29] <shiznit> with that driver?
[12:29] <IndyGunFreak> momal: nvidia drivers shoudl be rpetty easy
[12:29] <Veggie> Compiz Fusion is still beta etc. etc.
[12:29] <Hadeshorn> Hey Ubuntians!
[12:29] <momal> shiznit: the one from the site yes
[12:29] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: why are you compiling the nvidia driver
[12:29] <Hadeshorn> Got a question about file sharing with windows
[12:30] <momal> IndyGunFreak: yeah they are but it will want to compile the module into the kernal which needs the kernal headers and that
[12:30] <Veggie> Hadeshorn: Then ask it =P
[12:30] <Hadeshorn> I can connect to windows file sharing, but when they try to connect to mine  (Ubuntu) they keep getting asked for a user name and password
[12:30] <namiwawa> beni:how long u been using this
[12:30] <chimerazz> neumind :  r u there
[12:30] <IndyGunFreak> momal: why not just install the nvidia drivers in the repos?
[12:30] <pirxx> later,
[12:30] <neumind> chimerazz:  i added theme
[12:30] <vsayikiran> how to use ntpdate behind a proxy server?
[12:30] <shiznit> indygunfreak, momal says i have to
[12:30] <momal> IndyGunFreak: he tried that already didn't work out to well
[12:30] <Hadeshorn> I cant find a way to turn off this password, and even when I use MY ubuntu username and password, it still wont accept that
[12:31] <IndyGunFreak> then he probably didnt do it right.
[12:31] <chimerazz> neumind :  now select it
[12:31] <Ero_Otaku> Is the NTFS 3G driver included in the UBuntu 7.04 CD ?
[12:31] <Hadeshorn> any ideas?
[12:31] <beni> namiwawa: for several months now, why? Isnt that what you wanted?
[12:31] <shiznit> i checked it in restricted, it downloaded some shit, then asked me to reboot = text mode
[12:31] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: what did you install from synaptic?
[12:31] <shiznit> i dint
[12:31] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: lol, then how did you know it didn't work?
[12:31] <Veggie> You can't remember what it downloaded?

[12:32] <shiznit> indy, it rebooted to text mode
[12:32] <namiwawa> beni:yeah i guess i was just worried about its friendliness but well confirmed
[12:32] <IndyGunFreak> are you in text mode on that pc now?
[12:32] <vsayikiran> Gary: but in our LAN we are having a proxy server
[12:32] <shiznit> now im on laptop
[12:32] <shiznit> i reconfigured x and now its back to regular
[12:32] <Sajes> shiznit, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver
[12:33] <shiznit> i did that
[12:33] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: ok, so you're back to regular now?
[12:33] <Sajes> err. xserver-xorg rather.
[12:33] <shiznit> and it went back to normal, but i still need nvidia
[12:33] <Veggie> Did you choose the nvidia drivers?

[12:40] <smurf_> can someone help me?
[12:40] <shiznit> woot splash screen
[12:40] <smurf_> I cant get nvidia drivers , it keeps telling me im in x server.
[12:40] <IndyGunFreak> !ask | smurf_
[12:40] <Sajes> smurf, then you're probably running an xserver.
[12:40] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[12:40] <smurf_> lol
[12:40] <Sajes> an instance of xserver*.
[12:40] <shiznit> doh turned off the crt again
[12:40] <ubotu> smurf_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:40] <smurf_> how do i turn it off?
[12:40] <shiznit> the FW900 dont like being power cycled over and over
[12:41] <Sajes> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[12:41] <smurf_> Well i how do i turn off x server?
[12:41] <shiznit> Indy, im in
[12:41] <smurf_> i've tried that
[12:41] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: ok, did it work?
[12:41] <Sajes> smurf_, are you on a live cd or something then?
[12:41] <Veggie> Turning off the x server would be bad.
[12:41] <smurf_> no
[12:41] <smurf_> partiton
[12:41] <shiznit> well im in, i dont know it its actually using it
[12:41] <howlingmadhowie> smurf_: go to a virtual console and enter: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[12:41] <smurf_> you mean terminal?
[12:41] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: did you get a big thing that says, "Nvidia" when your computer was booting up?
[12:41] <shiznit> nope
[12:42] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: open restricted driver manager, see if it shows its in use.
[12:42] <shiznit> not in use
[12:42] <howlingmadhowie> smurf_: maybe i shoudl get a patient history first... are you on a live cd or have you installed ubuntu to your drive?
[12:42] <IndyGunFreak> check it.
[12:42] <mac_> Sajes: I am still unable to copy
[12:42] <IndyGunFreak> should have done that automatically though, at least it always has for me.
[12:43] <shiznit> wtf its removing nvidia-glx-new
[12:43] <decay> Anyone know where i can find the new features/changes of next ubuntu release?
[12:43] <Veggie> www.ubuntu.com
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: just let it do its things, see what happens
[12:43] <neumind> wher i can find sounds to donwload?
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> worst that happens is you reconfigure.
[12:43] <shiznit> this is what it did last time, and it rebooted to text mode
[12:43] <portableji1> Anyone know how to write printer drivers?
[12:43] <Sajes> mac_, try cp -a /home/username /directory
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: what device did you say you had?
[12:43] <shiznit> i think i need the proprietary one
[12:43] <shiznit> 8800gtx
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> unlikely
[12:44] <shiznit> well it just removed the one you told me to install
[12:44] <IndyGunFreak> i thought you said a 7800 earlier.. thats fairly new, you might need the prop. driver.
[12:44] <howlingmadhowie> portableji1: i'd recommend going to #kernel for stuff like that
[12:44] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: ok, try restarting after its done, see what happens
[12:44] <beni> Can I install Ubuntu 7.04 From the LiveCD WITH dm-crypt ? So directly create a crypted main partition like the Debian Setup offers?
[12:44] <portableji1> ok.
[12:44] <shiznit> and installed the old one that booted to text mode
[12:44] <shiznit> i dont wanna reboot now
[12:44] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: well then how are you going to know if it works or not?
[12:44] <shiznit> text mode is gonna happen
[12:44] <shiznit> ok fine
[12:44] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: then all hyou have tod o is run reconfigure to get back to the GUI.
[12:45] <shiznit> y ai know but its just a waste of time
[12:45] <Ero_Otaku> Installing ntfs-3g looks really hard
[12:45] <Ero_Otaku> I'll just stick with FAT32 :(
[12:45] <IndyGunFreak> Ero_Otaku: not at all, its in the repos.
[12:45] <shiznit> all the reboots are damaging my FW900, its keeps turning it off and on
[12:45] <Davo_Dinkum> what's the default CUPS password for the web UI?
[12:45] <shiznit> yep, text mode
[12:45] <Ero_Otaku> I've read about the repos, I still can't understand what it is
[12:46] <shiznit> failed to start x server
[12:46] <kaminix> If I play a vob file through mplayer via the console, will I see all errors the file contains? If I get no error, can I be sure my video is error free then?
[12:46] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: ok, reconfigure
[12:46] <kevix> portableji1: I think you are looking for configure your printer and want a correct cups settings. You can look for a recent similar printer model if you can't find your exact one.
[12:46] <Ero_Otaku> it's a server right ?
[12:46] <shiznit> grr
[12:46] <peter_> hi i am very new to this os and i am confused as hell are there any dedicated rooms here where i can ask a few questions please?
[12:46] <punzada> i still don't totally trust ntfs-3g so the drive with my windows partition I made fat32 for easy file sharing
[12:47] <Ero_Otaku> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009
[12:47] <momal> shiznit: You could try running X right now at textmode just put "X" in and see what error it says :)
[12:47] <shiznit> im gonna unplug the crt until this is solved, it keeps being power cycled
[12:47] <Ero_Otaku> do I need to do that T_T ?
[12:47] <mac_> Sajes: nonthing happen
[12:47] <howlingmadhowie> Ero_Otaku: the repos are large software repositories in the net. you can download a list of the software in the repositories and install any software you like using system->administration->synaptic
[12:47] <kevix> peter_: just ask the questions, providing as much info as you know like ubuntu version, hardware that is not working, what you last did...
[12:47] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: what are you trying to do, run dual head?
[12:47] <shiznit> momal, its the same error as before

[12:48] <Ero_Otaku> to do that http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009
[12:49] <IndyGunFreak> do what? i'm not reading the whle thread
[12:49] <IndyGunFreak> Ero_Otaku: i've told you, you need to install ntfs-3g
[12:49] <Ero_Otaku> follow this very long how-to
[12:49] <shiznit> so i have to reconfigure x again and go back to legacy
[12:49] <IndyGunFreak> Ero_Otaku: you answered your own question
[12:49] <momal> shiznit: not quite... you should beable to do it all from textmode
[12:50] <Ero_Otaku> Ok, I'll stick to FAT32
[12:50] <Sajes> lol, you need a how-to to follow a how-to? :\
[12:50] <howlingmadhowie> Ero_Otaku: no, that's old advice for earlier versions of ubuntu. if you're using feisty, you can install ntfs-3g directly by clicking on it in synaptic and then clicking install (as far as i know)
[12:50] <Ero_Otaku> thansk
[12:50] <shiznit> well i know that, but i dont wanna use the crt until its done
[12:50] <Ero_Otaku> *Thanks
[12:50] <peter_> wellit comes up with ubuntu 7.4 i have loaded and installed as per the instructions....i wish to know how do i defrag my harddrives,and how do i download  the new gnowm?
[12:50] <Ero_Otaku> That's what I wanted to know Howlingmadhowie
[12:50] <shiznit> ubuntu uses it for the splash screen then turns it off
[12:50] <will_> who here was around in the 5.04 days?
[12:50] <chimerazz> how to change usplash theme
[12:51] <shiznit> im gonna unplug it and hard reset
[12:51] <kevix> peter_: for all intent and purpose, there is no need to 'defarg' in linux.
[12:51] <howlingmadhowie> peter_: you don't need to defrag the ubuntu drives, they defrag themselves automagically.
[12:51] <MoNsTeR> hello everybody
[12:51] <MoNsTeR> :)
[12:51] <will_> howlingmadhowie: there is no such thing
[12:51] <peter_> oh ok thanyou jeez this is better them microsoft
[12:52] <shiznit> momal, looks like im gonna have to compile that driver after all
[12:52] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: wait till you get good and frustrated, then you'll curse linux..lol
[12:52] <shiznit> indy, thanks for trying
[12:52] <peter_> lol......
[12:52] <peter_> wot like now?
[12:52] <kevix> peter_: if you have the 'update-manager' installed, then it will show a 'orange blob' in your tool bar when you need to upgrade. click it, and it will do the upgrade.
[12:52] <MoNsTeR> peter_, are you having problems
[12:53] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: you may have to download the driver from Nvidia's site, but i'm not sure that woudl work either.
[12:53] <peter_> oh ic thankyou everybody that will explane why i have downloaded 30mb of updates then.......lol
[12:53] <shiznit> well how the heck do you use ubunty with 8800 then
[12:53] <chimerazz> IndyGunFreak: help to change usplash theme
[12:54] <IndyGunFreak> !splash | chimerazz
[12:54] <ubotu> chimerazz: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[12:54] <shiznit> what was the reconfigure x command? sorry i forgot
[12:54] <IndyGunFreak> !res
[12:54] <punzada> 8800 gts or gtx?
[12:54] <ubotu> 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
[12:54] <Sajes> shiznit, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:54] <shiznit> gtx
[12:54] <shiznit> ty
[12:55] <chimerazz> IndyGunFreak: help to change boot splash theme in fiesty
[12:55] <IndyGunFreak> chimerazz: i just told you.
[12:55] <IndyGunFreak> !usplash
[12:55] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[12:56] <eicca_> help, i wrote 'sudo usplash' and all the graphics got messy
[12:56] <peter_> one other question please!!!!! I read somewhere that gnome has been updated to v.2...something How do i get that?
[12:56] <chimerazz> IndyGunFreak: thanks :)
[12:56] <shiznit> ok rebooting, hopefully ill be back to gui again
[12:56] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: with Feisty, you likely have the current version, compiling a new GUI, is VERY complex, wait for Gutsy to come out to use the next version of Gnome.
[12:56] <punzada> peter, ubuntu 7.04 comes with gnome v2.18.1
[12:57] <punzada> the new version of ubuntu is due out next month right?
[12:57] <kevix> peter_: most software updates from time to time, but if you get something 'hot-off-the-press', it may have bugs, so it is best to get the version that is supported for your ubuntu release.
[12:57] <IndyGunFreak> punzada: yes
[12:57] <punzada> hmm never done a linux upgrade before
[12:57] <punzada> thats going to be interesting
[12:57] <shiznit> i was getting really pissed at all the crt power cycling, i treat it like a baby, its the best one ever made and they dont make em anymore
[12:57] <IndyGunFreak> punzada: me either, i always clean install.
[12:57] <yoshx> hello
[12:57] <Sajes> !ohmy > shiznit
[12:58] <shiznit> is that a cuss word?
[12:58] <leberkaes> i like a fresh start with a new home-direcotry
[12:58] <punzada> i've just never used one distro long enough to the point of then wanting to upgrade to the next version :P
[12:58] <punzada> lol
[12:58] <Toma-> youre nick is an alternation on a cuss word
[12:58] <peter_> oh ok thankyou all so very much for your help . As a new convertee i am impressed with the everything .....once again ty....
[12:58] <Igluntu> Just a question about 'rename'. I have filename _mgxxxxx.jpg (the true "_", not a 'joker' like *), i want to rename to imgxxxxx.jpg. Can you help me please ?
[12:58] <kevix> peter_: one of the differences between Debian  and ubuntu is that ubuntu has a 6 month release cycle, so you get a reasonably up-to-date gnome.
[12:58] <howlingmadhowie> will_: on-the-fly defragmenting certainly does exist and i thought some linux file systems did it.
[12:58] <Sajes> shiznit, you said... ahh, you're trying to trick me into saying it again.
[12:58] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: lol, you didn't know that was a cussword?
[12:58] <shiznit> my nickname is not cuss word, i used in all the forums, steam, wow, and many others
[12:59] <shiznit> english is my 3rd language, i really didnt
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> well yes, piss is a cussword
[12:59] <Sajes> shiznit, you said the.. "p" word aswell o.0
[12:59] <penguincentral> shiznit: we understand, DON'T WE?
[12:59] <peter_> do you mean they update every 6m's?
[12:59] <DjViper> Sajes: p word?
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: yes
[12:59] <shiznit> i was refering to the p word, sory i really dint know it was a curse word lol
[12:59] <peter_> wow.......
[12:59] <jetx> j
[12:59] <Sajes> an alternate word for urine was said. :D there we go.
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: every 3yrs, long term support version comes out.
[12:59] <DjViper> hehe :P
[01:00] <shiznit> but yea i dont like my fw900 messed with
[01:00] <Gin> hi
[01:00] <kevix> peter_: the release stable versions of Ubuntu every 6 months. you can stick with your version for about 1 year of official support or you can choose to upgrade to a new stable version.
[01:00] <momal> or an alternate word for someone who is really drunk :p
[01:00] <Sajes> woot my download is done. hoorah. brb.
[01:00] <Gin> when using firefox with flash, the cpu usage is at 95%+ is this normal? does this have to do with my videcard?
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: look at the version numbers... Ubuntu 7.04(release yr 07, 4mo"april").. Gutsy, 7.10(07yr, 10mo(oct))
[01:01] <shiznit> looks like there is a guide on wiki about  how to install the proprietary driver
[01:01] <penguincentral> !language
[01:01] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:01] <momal> O_o?
[01:01] <shiznit> i wish they just told you right away that yout 8800 is not supported
[01:01] <leberkaes> There is also a debian-package way to install the nvidia-driver
[01:01] <momal> shiznit: can you link me to the article :)
[01:02] <peter_> i am trying to find the version that i have i saw it somewhare....
[01:02] <peter_> 7.04
[01:02] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: open a terminal, and t ype "lsb_release -a"
[01:02] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[01:02] <DjViper> peter_: you can download 7.04 "feisty fawn" from www.ubuntu.com
[01:02] <kevix> peter_:  gutsy gibbon (what I have) uses gnome 2.20.0
[01:03] <peter_> oh hang on guys now you are loseing me.....lol
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> DjViper: i think he has feisty, he just didn't know the version number.
[01:03] <leberkaes> http://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers
[01:03] <MoNsTeR> i always call it gusty lol
[01:03] <DjViper> IndyGunFreak: okay
[01:03] <shiznit> momal, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: if you want to know your version number, open a terminal, and type "lsb_release -a", it will show you th einfo about your distro in a short output
[01:03] <shiznit> lol its a dead link
[01:04] <MoNsTeR> can somebody tell me if my server is up and running?
[01:04] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[01:04] <peter_> one mo i am trying to find the terminal app.....
[01:04] <DjViper> MoNsTeR: ?
[01:04] <momal> shiznit: that page is too evil for my eyes :p
[01:04] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: applications, accessories, terminal
[01:04] <DjViper> peter_: press alt+F2 type terminal
[01:04] <kevix> peter_: the last 2 version of Ubuntu are fiesty fawn and gutsy gibbon (now in beta)
[01:04] <peter_> arrrr ty..
[01:04] <bjxrnsxrn__> does anybody know a way of "upgrading" to Ubuntu when running Debian? (without boot disks)
[01:04] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[01:04] <DavoDinkum> Yeah I saw it running, better go catch it!
[01:05] <shiznit> momal, do you have a better way to do it, i know nothing about compiling
[01:05] <MoNsTeR> DjViper, im getting you the address
[01:05] <IndyGunFreak> bjxrnsxrn__: lol, hae you tried upgrading your Mac OS to Windows XP?
[01:05] <leberkaes> bjx...: No chance
[01:05] <DjViper> MoNsTeR: what do you want to test for? ssh ? web? ftp ?
[01:05] <momal> shiznit: you don't have to know anything about compiling :p the run thingo takes care of it
[01:05] <Keitaro> how do i use wine?
[01:05] <leberkaes> indy: *gggg*
[01:05] <shiznit> the nvidia driver you linked at the beginning
[01:05] <kevix> bjxrnsxrn__: it is not possible to cross-upgrade, and if you try, you will break everything.
[01:05] <momal> shiznit: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/100.14.19/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.19-pkg1.run <-- get that and run it under root with X closed down
[01:06] <IndyGunFreak> leberkaes: ?
[01:06] <leberkaes> indy: the mac-upgrade was funny
[01:06] <DjViper> MoNsTeR: did you try to pm me?
[01:06] <shiznit> ok lemme get it
[01:06] <bjxrnsxrn__> Ubuntu is Debian based, smartass, it's a different story
[01:06] <leberkaes> He can try to upgrade his debian with vista
[01:06] <MoNsTeR> no
[01:07] <MoNsTeR> DjViper, how can i pm you
[01:07] <momal> shiznit: it will say like no module found do you want to serach the net for it.. just go no and it will compile the module its self
[01:07] <IndyGunFreak> bjxrnsxrn__: no, it snot... ubuntu is debian based, but they are completely different OS's, that operate almost completely different..t he code is the same, thats it.
[01:07] <shiznit> momal and thats it?
[01:07] <IndyGunFreak> smartass
[01:07] <leberkaes> bjx: I know both, but you wont be able to upgrade deabian to ubuntu
[01:07] <DjViper> MoNsTeR: /query DjViper
[01:07] <momal> shiznit: you might need the linux-headers-(insert kernel verison here)
[01:07] <deardeath> Greetings.
[01:07] <deardeath> Can one of you help me out with something?
[01:07] <IndyGunFreak> !ask | deardeath
[01:07] <ubotu> deardeath: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:07] <deardeath> My internet speed is a lot slower whilst using ubuntu
[01:07] <shiznit> oh boy, can i apt-get that
[01:07] <deardeath> Any idea why?
[01:08] <peter_> i typed lsb_release -a and got message say8ing no such command!!!!!!!!!!.......lol i love it
[01:08] <momal> shiznit: yup the linux headers on you can
[01:08] <Keitaro> deardeath: are you using dial-up?
[01:08] <deardeath> nope
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: wireless?
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> oops, deardeath  wireless
[01:08] <deardeath> The thing is, while using windows xp I download files with 200kbps
[01:08] <shiznit> nope
[01:08] <kevix> deardeath: as soon as you explain it, someone may try....
[01:08] <Keitaro> deardeath: USB?
[01:08] <deardeath> while on ubuntu, my download rate is around 20 kbps
[01:08] <shiznit> well this laptop is
[01:08] <bjxrnsxrn__> excactly, the code is the same
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: sorr, that was meant for deardeath
[01:08] <deardeath> It's a desktop computer, with lan connection.
[01:09] <deardeath> not wireless.
[01:09] <deardeath> Connected to the modem over lan
[01:09] <Keitaro> deardeath: Ethernet?
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> deardeath: makes no sense.
[01:09] <deardeath> Yup
[01:09] <momal> shiznit: after it configures your xorg.conf file then basically yeah it should be on running fine.. if X doesn't run on next reboot then your having the problem i had ages ago lol. and you need to remove all the linux restricted drivers with --purge from memory
[01:09] <deardeath> Another thing I noticed is, it takes a bit more time to resolve dns of hostnames.
[01:09] <Sajes> is truecrypt not in the repos?
[01:09] <leberkaes> bjx: The codebase between win95 and vista is also nearly the same, but its not upgradeble
[01:09] <deardeath> like 40 seconds or something like that
[01:09] <peter_> kev u there?
[01:09] <shiznit> momal, linux-headers-2.6.20-15 is installed
[01:09] <MoNsTeR> DjViper,
[01:10] <MoNsTeR> DjViper, can you see my text in the pm i sent you
[01:10] <momal> shiznit: yup thats good then you wont need to get them so just run the .run file now :)
[01:10] <Keitaro> deardeath: is your ethernet card a giagbit connection?
[01:10] <shiznit> momal, do i need linux-headers-2.6.20-15-386 as well?
[01:10] <deardeath> Yup
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> is he still crying about how STUPID that qustion was, upgradign debian to ubuntu?
[01:10] <Keitaro> deardeath: *gigabit
[01:10] <momal> shiznit: umm don't think so
[01:10] <jetx> try apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[01:10] <shiznit> ok
[01:10] <momal> shiznit: you can try it without it.. it will just tell you if you need them or not
[01:10] <deardeath> I don't believe it's because of something my ethernet card offers, it has got to do with Ubuntu hence the difference between Windows and Ubuntu is a bit lot.
[01:10] <momal> shiznit: yeah do the thing jetx said that will get the correct one :)
[01:11] <Keitaro> deardeath: yeah, ubuntu has problems with gigabit ethernet cards. they even loose connection after a while and requires a restart :(
[01:11] <damianl> is it wise to do a "passwd root"
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> damianl: no
[01:11] <shiznit> jetx, is that a space after the $
[01:11] <peter_> Typed this command in "lsb_release -a" reply was No such command.
[01:11] <kevix> peter_: type 'more /etc/lsb-release'
[01:11] <MoNsTeR> can somebody tell me if this works
[01:11] <deardeath> Keitaro:  Any solutions?
[01:11] <darkchr0n0s> where to ask for some hardware support... anyone knows the channel... the thing is i am buying a 2nd hand pc and want some diagonistic tools to run to check if the pc is fine or not
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: are you on a live CD?
[01:11] <MoNsTeR> go to this webpage
[01:11] <MoNsTeR> http://72.193.8.164:8000
[01:11] <damianl> whats wrong with having an admin account im sick of always havning to type my password
[01:11] <momal> it works monster
[01:11] <shiznit> jetx, do i type uname is that supposed to mean my user name
[01:11] <Keitaro> deardeath: i suggest getting the latest ethernet drivers for Linux and insalling them
[01:12] <momal> testphp.php file is there
[01:12] <peter_> not on live cd no full install
[01:12] <peter_> cheers kev
[01:12] <peter_> will do that
[01:12] <jetx> no shiznit .. just type it as it looks. try uname -r first to see what it does, in an xterm
[01:12] <momal> shiznit: "uname -r" will return your kernal version so type it as is :)
[01:12] <ttols> is flash player 9 available on ubuntu?
[01:12] <jetx> cut&paste or whatever
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: that command should work fine... lsb_release -a  make sure thats a lower case L at the beginning, and there's a space between release and -a
[01:12] <ttols> just flash player 7 work fine on ubuntu but, 9 is not
[01:12] <damianl> that command should work fine...so i should "passwd root"
[01:13] <IndyGunFreak> ttols: flash 9 has been otu for linux for a while.
[01:13] <IndyGunFreak> damianl: no, use sudo
[01:14] <damianl> IndyGunFreak but why it gets annoying always typing my password, its worse than win vista
[01:14] <IndyGunFreak> damianl: thats part of what makes linux 1000x safer than anything out of Redmond.
[01:14] <shiznit> ok its said newest version
[01:14] <shiznit> so close x and run the download?
[01:14] <hammer123> hi, is there a way to change the default player from totem to vlc in ubuntu?
[01:14] <momal> shiznit: when the nvidia*.run file finishes just try run gnome or X again "/etc/init.d/gdm restart" i think thats what it is for gnome from memory or just run "X" and see if it returns an error.
[01:14] <momal> shiznit: yup
[01:15] <kevix> damianl: its that way so that you know you are doing something that might break your system and its confirming you want to do it.
[01:15] <shiznit> how do i close x
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: did you figure it out?
[01:15] <leberkaes> If you use your system right you wont need to type the root-pw at "normal" work.
[01:15] <peter_> done everythinh you all have said......now all i get is a flashing cursor key after i have cut and pasted the command........lol
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> peter_: ? you're not doin somethign right
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> try typing it.
[01:16] <peter_> i know.........lol
[01:16] <MoNsTeR> thanks for testing it momal
[01:16] <wabiD> can anyone help me fix this - http://img503.imageshack.us/img503/4123/granju7.png
[01:16] <damianl> mm i guess
[01:16] <IndyGunFreak> lsb_release -a
[01:16] <shiznit> momal, do i log out and session failsafe terminal to close x?
[01:16] <kevix> peter_: did you include the ' (single quote)? if so, try with out them.
[01:16] <peter_> i will sit here untill i get it i am now going to have a jug of coffee brb.......
[01:16] <momal> shiznit: umm in gnome you can get to terminal from ctrl+alt+f1 then just do /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[01:17] <peter_> no kev
[01:17] <shiznit> i need to close x though
[01:17] <shiznit> dont know how
[01:17] <shiznit> oh ok sry
[01:17] <leberkaes> change the init-level
[01:17] <momal> shiznit: you might have to press ctrl+alt+f1 again to return to the terminal it tends to go back to the ubuntu loading screen... yeah X will die when gnome does :p
[01:17] <peter_> BRB......
[01:18] <kevix> peter_:  so you typed :        more /etc/lsb-release                  and no output?
[01:18] <acomaco> Anyone that programs with GTK / QT or WxWidgets?
[01:18] <kevix> acomaco: maybe, ask a question and someone may answer...
[01:18] <IndyGunFreak> kevix: that command doesn't work for me either
[01:19] <acomaco> Well, I'm not pro at Linux and i got a very hard time installing/configure them or downloading them for C++ use..
[01:19] <kevix> IndyGunFreak: mea culpa. maybe its gutsy only?
[01:19] <shiznit> how do you go to directory in linux, dos was "cd"
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> kevix: my  mistake, yes it did... i used underscore on accident.
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> i'll have to remember that one.
[01:19] <momal> shiznit: yeah cd will work :p
[01:19] <penguincentral> shiznit: it still is
[01:19] <acomaco> kevix:  i've tried Apt-get with no results ^
[01:20] <damianl> shiznit ha ha

[01:24] <leberkaes> gin: Try to get Firefox as Package for your distribution
[01:24] <Gin> leberkaes, I solved it already. I needed libstdc++5
[01:24] <leberkaes> gin: Thats all??
[01:25] <Gin> leberkaes, yep
[01:25] <leberkaes> wow
[01:25] <peter_> easy when u know how!!!
[01:25] <shiznit> momal, "you appear to be running in runlevel 1, this may cause problems"
[01:25] <Gin> leberkaes, I'm just trying to use the firefox version obtained from mozilla.com. it works hell lot faster than the default one in Ubuntu
[01:25] <Evolution2> hey guys, i was just wondering if there is a way to extract a folder into /usr/share/apps because it tells me that i dont have enough permissions
[01:25] <leberkaes> Its always easy when you know how, and always hard if you dont.
[01:25] <kevix> peter_: so what did it say?
[01:25] <Evolution2> what are the commands
[01:26] <peter_> arrr hang on kev i have forgotton........lol
[01:26] <leberkaes> type su to become root
[01:26] <shiznit> it wants me to change to runlevel 3
[01:26] <momal> shiznit: well that would be the first time i have ever seen that error/warning before... umm ignore it.. its probably seeing the X should be running
[01:26] <peter_> gonner do it again
[01:26] <jonnymac> why doesn't my external hard drive unmount on ubuntu and it does on Windows?
[01:26] <leberkaes> if you are root, you will have all rights
[01:26] <Evolution2> ok where do i do this
[01:26] <shiznit> well i didnt close x like you said, i rebooted to recovery mode
[01:26] <Evolution2> konsole?
[01:26] <shiznit> should i change to runlevel 3 like it says
[01:26] <momal> LOL
[01:27] <momal> thats prob why.. umm you should
[01:27] <momal> somethings still need to be running for it to work :p
[01:27] <shiznit> i was gonna but before you told me how i already messed it up lol
[01:27] <shiznit> im just gonna do it proberly
[01:27] <leberkaes> shiz: I dont know the ubuntu-runlevels, but if your runlevel is low enough you dont have X
[01:27] <momal> if you just closed X before you wouldn't need to reboot after running the .run file to see if it worked
[01:28] <shiznit> <- nub
[01:28] <momal> lol

[01:32] <karlo> help! I need to install flash plaer for mozilla on 64 bit system, how do I do that?
[01:32] <shiznit> momal, i can type but it doesnt do anything
[01:33] <leberkaes> In Ubuntu you have most of the nice debian-stuff, like apt for example
[01:33] <peter_> kev dose this op need a virus app and firewall lice windows based pc's?
[01:33] <momal> shiznit: what you mean by doesn't do anything when you type?
[01:33] <shiznit> there is no user name next it
[01:33] <peter_> what is distro????
[01:33] <peter_> like^
[01:33] <darkchr0n0s> distro = distribution
[01:33] <karlo> help! I need to install flash plaer for mozilla on 64 bit system, how do I do that?
[01:33] <darkchr0n0s> like ubuntu
[01:33] <darkchr0n0s> fedora
[01:33] <darkchr0n0s> suse
[01:33] <leberkaes> distro = Flavour of Linux
[01:33] <momal> shiznit: hmm so like your keyboard isn't reponding?.. just try pressing enter and what happens
[01:33] <namiwawa> beni
[01:33] <namiwawa> u there
[01:34] <shiznit> i can type but it has no effect
[01:34] <shiznit> its just skips a line when i hit enter
[01:34] <leberkaes> What can you see on your monitor ?
[01:34] <kevix> peter_: is certainly better to have a firewall, but for the most part there is not linux 'virus' and if there was one, its not easy to catch.
[01:34] <leberkaes> Just a blinking Cursor and nothing eles??
[01:34] <steel_lady>  why after installing all possible flash plug-ins, some pages with flash still do not work?
[01:34] <shiznit> you know how in regular terminal it shows the user name, it doesnt do that
[01:35] <nem75> karlo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins
[01:35] <momal> shiznit: press ctrl+Alt+f1 again if still same go ctrl+alt+f2
[01:35] <peter_> do you reccomend any i can use ?
[01:35] <leberkaes> shiz: Are you at console F1 ??
[01:35] <momal> shiznit: is it still the same on that one ?
[01:35] <shiznit> ok cool
[01:35] <shiznit> im logged in now
[01:35] <shiznit> that was weird
[01:35] <kevix> peter_: I like 'shorewall' but there are others.
[01:36] <momal> shiznit: yay!... ok now cd to where the NVIDIA*.run is then do "sudo chmod +x NVIDIA*.run" then "sudo ./NVIDIA*.run" and hopefully no errors will arise :D
[01:36] <momal> shiznit: or if you did chmod before you wont need to do that again
[01:36] <jxxxt> karlo, I am using "gnash" but the results are variable
[01:36] <kevix> peter_: most folks who have DSL or cable, have a 'modem' that has a built-in firewall, at least some do, so that is some protection.
[01:36] <peter_> ok...what do i do if i want to get software ie the one u have suggested?
[01:37] <jonathan_> hello
[01:37] <peter_> my wireless hub has a fire wall built in
[01:37] <shiznit> momal, would i like to dowload the kernel interface?
[01:37] <momal> shiznit: nope.. say no to that
[01:37] <kevix> peter_:  the 'application' menu has an option ''add/remove'. choose this to install software
[01:37] <momal> shiznit: it shoudl say it has to compile it then let it do that :)
[01:38] <shiznit> momal, you do not appear to hate a libc
[01:38] <Gin> wow, firefox from mozilla.com is way faster than the defaul one on ubuntu
[01:38] <momal> shiznit: :(
[01:38] <shiznit> grr
[01:38] <momal> shiznit: lol..
[01:38] <shiznit> my kernel is *.16 grr
[01:38] <ghaith> hey, how much space should i reserve to an ubuntu partition, i'm thinking of having a dual boot with gentoo, i already have 20GB for the / partition, would splitting that into 10 for each be a good idea? i have /home /boot and /usr/portage for gentoo split..
[01:39] <shiznit> how do i get back to gui mode, need to get that package
[01:39] <Yoric1> You could create a /home partition and mount it into each distro.
[01:39] <peter_> ok kev i have bothered you enough for now i will play and see wot more cock ups i can make......sorry a little english humour for ya.......lol
[01:39] <momal> shiznit: just run "/etc/init.d/gdm start"
[01:39] <Yoric1> But srsly, 5GB for the OS, and write anything big back into your Gentoo.
[01:39] <kevix> ghaith: sounds like a plan ;-)
[01:39] <Yoric1> nn all
[01:40] <momal> shiznit: or you could install it from the terminal search for it with "sudo apt-cache search nameyourafter"
[01:40] <kevix> peter_: cheerio!
[01:40] <ghaith> i'm thinking of using home for both, though with diffrent users as ubuntu adds up some stuff as i've noticed before, as for the base system, i'll keep 10gb then?
[01:41] <peter_> thankyou ........i will also change my name to pete_iow so if u see me in here again .....and i can assure you i will be in here again that will be my new ident .....thankyou v.much.
[01:41] <momal> shiznit: check to see you have build-essentials package as well
[01:41] <shiznit> like?
[01:42] <DjViper> peter_: hm this channel holds more than 1000 people hehe, we can't remember all your nicknames
[01:42] <momal> thats the package name :)... or how ever you spell essentials
[01:42] <peter_> oh........ok.........cya
[01:42] <momal> it will just install all the necassary stuff for compiling then it said about a libc get the ones with that in front of there names as well :)
[01:42] <shiznit> momal, ok i see the requirements on the redme
[01:45] <jonnymac> why doesn't my external hard drive unmount on ubuntu when it does so on Windows?
[01:46] <erUSUL> jonnymac: what error it gives when you try to umount it?
[01:46] <saderd> hi
[01:47] <shiznit> ok build-essential installed
[01:47] <steel_lady>  why after installing all possible flash plug-ins, some pages with flash still do not work?
[01:47] <momal> once you have installed the other ones listed in the readme then stop gdm again then run the installer :)
[01:48] <The_entropy> hello, I have a couple of questions about NFS, should I be asking them here?
[01:48] <erUSUL> steel_lady: can you give an example of a page that does not work
[01:48] <erUSUL> ?
[01:48] <steel_lady> http://www.terra.es/chat/salas/sala_6_175.htm
[01:49] <astro76> steel_lady, it appears that page uses a shockwave file, not flash. Shockwave is completely unsupported in linux
[01:50] <jxxxt> steel_lady, I get similar probs
[01:50] <ttols> The_entropy: goahead someone will anser about that :)
[01:50] <steel_lady> when I click on it it says it uses adobe flash player 9
[01:50] <The_entropy> I'm experiencing a very weird problem, I'm trying to mount an NFS share from my laptop, For some shares I get access denied, for others I don't
[01:51] <TopoMorto> The_entropy: we are listen you
[01:51] <shiznit> momal, "would you like the nvidia config utility to automatically update x config?
[01:51] <steel_lady> and why is it completly supported astro76?
[01:51] <bullgard4> detlef@MD97600:~$ xresprobe i915 obtains: "id: (empty), res: (empty); freq: (empty); disptype: lcd/lvds." Why is xresprobe so taciturn?
[01:51] <momal> shiznit: yup say yes to it
[01:51] <The_entropy> although in /etc/exports they all have exactly the same parameters
[01:51] <shiznit> ok it done
[01:51] <astro76> steel_lady, it's unsupported because Adobe hasn't written it for linux
[01:51] <steel_lady> astro76, where are you from?
[01:51] <momal> shiznit: now just try to start up gdm again
[01:52] <shiznit> failed to start x server
[01:52] <The_entropy> even weirder, when I do tail -f /var/log/daemon.log the NFS daemon says that it has authenticated the mount request, however, on the client I still get permission denied
[01:52] <momal> shiznit: >_>... try running "X" and see what the error is
[01:52] <The_entropy> the only difference between the shares that I can mount and the ones I can't is that the ones I can't are owned by root
[01:52] <The_entropy> could that be the problem?
[01:52] <shiznit> im a the blue screen
[01:53] <astro76> steel_lady, the US
[01:53] <momal> ctrl+alt+f1 it and do it :)
[01:53] <noam_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI - i've used this guide to install the latest ati driver, and now i see that is incompatible to my X version. i want to go back to using the driver that comes with ubuntu. how hard is that?
[01:53] <steel_lady> astro76, I was born on76 and I work in astrophys
[01:53] <shiznit> how do i run x
[01:54] <momal> just do "X" in terminal
[01:54] <astro76> steel_lady, ah ok, I was born in 76, but astrophysics is just one of my hobbies ;)
[01:54] <The_entropy> shiznit, I had a similar problem when I took out an old ATI card and replaced it with an Nvidia one
[01:54] <shiznit> momal, failed to initialize nvdia kernel module, please endusre blabla
[01:55] <The_entropy> shiznit, what I did to fix it was boot from a live CD and replace the old xorg.conf file with the one from the live D
[01:55] <The_entropy> +C
[01:55] <shiznit> that doesnt get me a working nvdia driver lol
[01:55] <momal> The_entropy: long story but that wont work lol
[01:55] <The_entropy> okay...
[01:55] <The_entropy> no idea what the problem is
[01:55] <The_entropy> I didn't see the the whole conversation
[01:56] <shiznit> its says at the end "no screens found" rofl
[01:56] <momal> shiznit: umm hmm can you tell me more on what it is saying... upload your /usr/var/Xorg.0.log file onto pastebin or somewhere :)
[01:56] <momal> omg

[02:14] <Seivan|> ITs a laptop
[02:14] <erUSUL> lisa_: ?
[02:14] <erUSUL> !sound | Seivan|
[02:14] <ubotu> Seivan|: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[02:14] <MatthewV> Seivan|, if you're running gutsy you should be asking in #ubuntu+1
[02:14] <momal> shiznit: hmm what other Xorg files do you have in /var/log ?
[02:14] <erUSUL> Seivan|: also
[02:15] <momal> shiznit: that one seems to show a successful startup using nv :p
[02:16] <warbler> Llua: found this interesting - http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=414
[02:17] <shiznit> momal, crap its cause i reconfigure the x server
[02:17] <momal> lol!
[02:17] <Llua> Warbler: i was wondering if a DAT file was just a container
[02:18] <shiznit> omg
[02:18] <shiznit> momal, so how do i get you the correct log from the command line lol
[02:18] <Llua> Warbler: if it is then renaming DAT to mpeg should be no problems. gonna try now
[02:18] <warbler> Llua: if that post is right it is just another name for the mpeg file
[02:18] <lisa_> imutgirl
[02:19] <momal> well re do the nvidia installer thingo then run "sudo cp /var/log/Xorg.0.log /home/username/Xorg.0.log" change username to yours
[02:19] <shiznit> ok cool
[02:19] <warbler> lisa_: are you lost?
[02:19] <momal> cp is basically the copy command from dos :)
[02:19] <shiznit> do you have time for that, i feel like ive been wasting it

[02:21] <elliotjhug> Hi, Anyone here know how to change the channel that the volume control changes (ie with the volume up and down buttons)
[02:21] <momal> shiznit: "mkdir /home/username/xorglog" then do "sudo cp /var/log/Xorg*.log /home/username/xorglog" that will copy all the Xorg log files into that folder then upload them all after you come back to gui :)
[02:21] <warbler> !hi
[02:21] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:21] <Stokesy> I installed "kubuntu-desktop" and i went to uninstall it, but it left a whole lot of KDE programs installed. Is there an easy way to get rid of them?
[02:21] <imperfect-> Is there a better resource monitor than gkrellm?
[02:21] <cwillu> elliotjhug: right click on the volume control, it's in properties
[02:22] <shiznit> momal, i cant scroll up enough to see the nvidia command, what was it
[02:22] <warbler> elliotjhug: in terminal - apt-get remove --purge kde
[02:22] <momal> shiznit: "./NVIDIA*.run"
[02:23] <warbler> oops
[02:23] <momal> add sudo in front of that
[02:23] <warbler> Stokesy: in terminal - apt-get remove --purge kde
[02:23] <imutgirl> lisa
[02:23] <Stokesy> warbler, thanks
[02:24] <warbler> k
[02:24] <cwillu> momal: I might note that "sudo foo*" is a problem waiting to happen;  better to use completion on the glob, verify its the command you want, and then hit enter
[02:24] <elliotjhug> warbler: thanks, but never had any KDE, cwillu: thanks
[02:24] <shiznit> man this is a quite a linux baptizm
[02:24] <shiznit> good think i got it running flawlessly on this laptop
[02:25] <h0n24> Hi everybody. I have problem with my xvidtune - error "video modes are not turnable at this chip". Can anybody help me?
[02:25] <momal> cwillu: yeah i know but he has it in folder and it is easer for him to type NVIDIA*.run rather then NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.19-pkg1.run
[02:26] <cwillu> momal: hence why I mentioned the use of completion :p
[02:26] <elliotjhug> cwillu: Thanks, that worked for the gnome panel icon. The volume keys on my keyboard still map to front though. Any ideas
[02:26] <momal> cwillu: ahh didn't see the second line :p
[02:26] <manis> hi@all
[02:27] <MrEgg964> Hi all. I'm looking for a dvd cloner on ubuntu - smthg like CloneDVD... any suggestion ?
[02:27] <cwillu> elliotjhug: nothing come to mind, give me a sec
[02:27] <imperfect-> so.
[02:27] <imperfect-> Anyone know how, if I have two monitors I cna have a different background on each?
[02:28] <cwillu> imperfect-: I know you can on kde, not sure gnome has the option
[02:28] <wenie> hai
[02:28] <cwillu> imperfect-: although you could do a hackjob by combining the two backgrounds you want :p
[02:29] <shiznit> momal, upload as soon as it reboots back to legacy
[02:29] <imperfect-> cwillu : Yeah I was trying to avoid the hackjob ;)
[02:29] <h0n24> I need a help with xvidtune - error "video modes are not turnable at this chip". plz
[02:30] <cwillu> imperfect-: I just reset my gutsy, I'll check it though in a sec
[02:30] <bullgard4> English help wanted: What English descriptive text does Synaptic provide for the DEB program package 'libdiscover1'? Is it "libdiscover1 is a library which can detect several PCI, PCMIA and USB devices"?
[02:31] <cwillu> elliotjhug: it changes on the next login
[02:31] <cwillu> elliotjhug: still looking for what process to kill to do better
[02:31] <imperfect-> cwillu : I already looked, it doesn't appear to be gnome-a-rific.
[02:31] <warbler> Llua: did it work...?
[02:31] <shiznit> momal, pastebin.com/m4f79a7df
[02:32] <albert23> bullgard4: libdiscover1 is a library enabling identification of various PCI, PCMCIA, and USB devices.
[02:33] <cwillu> elliotjhug: still therE?
[02:33] <neumind> wher i can find good ubuntu themes?
[02:33] <bullgard4> albert23: Thank you very much for your help.
[02:33] <cwillu> elliotjhug: killall gnome-volume-manager seems to do it for me (_not_ gnome-volume-control)
[02:33] <n3tfury> neumind: gnome-look.org
[02:33] <neumind> n3tfury: i looked already..
[02:33] <n3tfury> !
[02:34] <warbler> gnome-art
[02:34] <momal> shiznit: that error seems like a really old one looking into it now
[02:34] <shiznit> momal, i wanna have your babies
[02:34] <neumind> n3tfury: i looked already..
[02:34] <neumind> wher i can find good ubuntu themes?
[02:34] <warbler> deviantArt
[02:35] <momal> LOL... if your a hot chick then maybe you can :p
[02:36] <cwillu> momal, shiznit, do I really need to melt your computers?
[02:36] <shiznit> you cant touch mine
[02:36] <shiznit> q6600@3.6hz
[02:37] <momal> LOL... if you can buy me some new hardware after doing it sure :D... i need an upgrade
[02:37] <cwillu> sheesh, does nobody read xkcd?
[02:37] <shiznit> i have an opteron 170, but im gonna use it to make a server box as soon as i learn ho
[02:37] <shiznit> how*
[02:38] <bullgard4> albert23: And what is the headline or resume of this text in English? Is it 'Library for hardware identification'?
[02:38] <shiznit> its probably gonna run a CS:S linux server, if i find some cheap colo
[02:40] <ntoxin> Does anybody know of an iso burning app in ubuntu?
[02:40] <shiznit> i knew it, 32bit linux only sees 3.2gb of ram
[02:41] <shiznit> just like windows, it counts the video ram agains the sysytem ram
[02:41] <sephi> hi guys
[02:41] <dgjones> ntoxin, k3b will do it, presumably gnomebaker as well
[02:41] <ntoxin> kewl thanks
[02:42] <sephi> plz.. can u give me a hand? i am about to partionate my hd.. what is round to cylinders?
[02:42] <sephi> should i tick it for my windows or linux partitions?
[02:42] <momal> shiznit: bring up a list of packages you have installed that contain the word nvidia in them
[02:43] <cwillu> ntoxin: just right click on the iso in ubuntu, it'll say "burn to cd"
[02:43] <jxxxt> ntoxin, Gnomebaker
[02:43] <momal> shiznit: from them which ones do you have installed
[02:43] <LjL> sephi, i don't think either linux or windows cares, but i suppose it won't hurt to tick it (you'll just lose a couple of megabytes i assume)
[02:43] <ntoxin> thanks guys!
[02:44] <albert23> bullgard4: it is: hardware identification library
[02:44] <sephi> LjL: tks! i will tick both for windows and linux so...
[02:44] <sephi> but what diference will it make?
[02:44] <shiznit> momal, nvidia-glx, nvidial-kernel-common
[02:44] <momal> remove them both
[02:45] <bullgard4> albert23: Thank you very much once again.
[02:45] <shiznit> momal, complete or regular removal?
[02:45] <momal> hmm just do regular removal
[02:45] <LjL> sephi: it rounds the partition size to cylinder boundaries. a cylinder used to have a physical meaning on a hard drive - now though, a "logical" cylinder doesn't necessarily match any "physical" cylinder.
[02:45] <shiznit> momal, other packages came up but dont have nvidia in name, only description
[02:46] <momal> shiznit: thats fine leave those ones was just after the nvidia driver ones
[02:47] <xen_> olleh, just wondering, when i remove applications with synaptic it removes them completely, however because im using the cli alot atm, and i use sudo apt-get remove 'application' it does not remove everything, so when i reinstall the app im left with the settings of when i previously removed the app, how do i remove an app completely with the cli?
[02:47] <momal> shiznit: ok after removing them kill X then run the nvidia installer again
[02:47] <sephi> LjL: kind complex for a nb like me but nice to know.. always learning.. i will re-install my linux now.. tks  again!
[02:47] <ntoxin> cwillu, right clicking it did'nt work but i dont know if it is because i'm using xubuntu or something!
[02:48] <shiznit> momal, when i mark nvidia-kernel-common for removal, it says i have to remove linux-generic, linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20.15-generic, linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20.16-generic, linux-restricted-modules-generic
[02:48] <Jopie> Hey, I'm having trouble getting my atheros wireless pci card to work... running dmesg says "Unable to attach to Hardware; HAL status 1" - any hints on what to do?
[02:48] <cwillu> ntoxin: ya, xubuntu runs xfce instead of gnome
[02:48] <momal> shiznit: yup get rid of them.. they are the ones that messed me up ages back when i had a problem similar
[02:48] <cwillu> ntoxin: and the right clicky thing is nautilus, which is gnome :p
[02:48] <sephi> cya guys.. tks! i will be back soon... out of my live cd... cya
[02:49] <ntoxin> Cwillu: is there any way of getting it in Xubuntu?
[02:49] <cwillu> ntoxin: how close to the minimum specs are you?
[02:50] <ntoxin> cwillu 3ghz 1024mb 128mb vid...
[02:50] <xen_> olleh, just wondering, when i remove applications with synaptic it removes them completely, however because im using the cli alot atm, and i use sudo apt-get remove 'application' it does not remove everything, so when i reinstall the app im left with the settings of when i previously removed the app, how do i remove an app completely with the cli?
[02:50] <cwillu> ntoxin: my god man, why are you running xubuntu? :p
[02:51] <cyne> lol
[02:52] <ntoxin> cwillu dunno someone told me it might take car of a sound driver i had but it did'nt!
[02:52] <jrib> xen_: aptitude purge PACKAGE   but user settings may always remain in ~/.SOME_FILE so you will want to check for that
[02:52] <apac_> hello everybody.i cant get the admin interface working properly on apache.any help
[02:52] <cwillu> ntoxin: installing ubuntu-desktop is the simplest answer for me to give, but that'll take a while, download a bunch of stuff, and change a bunch of things;  that said, unless you have a preference for xfce, just straight ubuntu is gonna be better supported
[02:52] <xen_> ok ty
[02:52] <cwillu> ntoxin: nah, that wouldn't likely affect anything sound related
[02:52] <shiznit> momal, "error: unable to create '/usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so..2.xlibmesa' for copying (no such file or directory)"
[02:53] <momal> shiznit: what said this?
[02:53] <shiznit> momal, the driver insaller, right before that is sait that it detected an old installation and that it will attempt to uninstall and asked me to continue
[02:53] <baabaablacksheep> is it normal for memtest86 to run for 25hrs? i'm still running it from last night!?
[02:54] <gordonjcp> hello
[02:54] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: it'll run until you interrupt it
[02:54] <xen_> this is going to sound pretty dumb.. but, what is a CVS?
[02:54] <gordonjcp> how do I set the order in which USB audio devices are loaded?
[02:54] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: it should say something about how many cycles it's gone through though
[02:54] <momal> shiznit did you run it with sudo ?
[02:54] <baabaablacksheep> it've went through 63 cycles already
[02:54] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: any errors?
[02:54] <ntoxin> cwillu, sound seems to be a big topic with linux in general cause i got xubuntu on one computer and puppy linux on the other and both have issues with sound...
[02:54] <shiznit> i think so, should i retry
[02:54] <gordonjcp> xen_: CVS is a code versioning system, that lets you track changes made to source code
[02:54] <momal> yeah retry it
[02:54] <bullgard4> Why is there no manual page for 'libdiscover1'?
[02:54] <baabaablacksheep> no, zero errors...
[02:54] <cwillu> ntoxin: fiesty?
[02:54] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: you're probably fine then
[02:55] <xen_> ahh ok
[02:55] <baabaablacksheep> cos i've a kernel panic after installing server edition.
[02:55] <shiznit> momal, i hit enter and it says unable to restore that same file
[02:55] <baabaablacksheep> so, i can safely stop the memtest now?
[02:55] <Llua> Warbler: sorry
[02:55] <cwillu> ntoxin: I haven't run into too many issues;  one laptop (out of a dozen or so)
[02:55] <Llua> Warbler: was away
[02:55] <ntoxin> cwillu, well i updated it last night!
[02:55] <shiznit> momal, it say the same for a couple more files but now it finished and asking me to autoconfig
[02:55] <warbler> k
[02:55] <Llua> Warbler: worked perfectly
[02:55] <warbler> yes!
[02:55] <momal> ok auto config it then run the installer again
[02:55] <Jopie> anybody got any hints on ath_pci?
[02:56] <cwillu> ntoxin: well, lets get you switched back to ubuntu from xubuntu
[02:56] <Llua> i was talking to some other guy on a video irc room
[02:56] <momal> shiznit: if it says the same errors just ignore them for now
[02:56] <cwillu> ntoxin: and then we can get your alsa issues taken care of
[02:56] <cwillu> ntoxin: I've got a couple hours to kill anyway :p
[02:56] <Llua> told me DAT files are same as MEPG files. just a standard name for VCD disc structure
[02:56] <shiznit> momal, it worked i guess i didnt do sudo
[02:56] <guy_> ciao
[02:57] <momal> shiznit: ok now try to start up gdm and hope for the best xD
[02:57] <ntoxin> cwillu i'll let my CD finish burning before ripping the operating system out of my computer though!
[02:57] <baabaablacksheep> so, i can safely stop the memtest now?
[02:57] <shiznit> failed to start x
[02:57] <momal> >_<... same error ?
[02:57] <cwillu> ntoxin: awww, where's your sense of adventure?
[02:57] <ntoxin> cwillu, ROFL
[02:57] <shiznit> this is getting rididculous
[02:58] <momal> shiznit: run "sudo modprobe nvidia" then try to start X
[02:58] <Octabit> /whoami
[02:58] <cwillu> Octabit
[02:58] <Octabit> lol
[02:58] <Octabit> hello
[02:58] <Octabit> sorry haven't used IRC for absolutely ages
[02:58] <Octabit> and never from within GAIM
[02:59] <cwillu> resident of the uk
[02:59] <shiznit> momal, fatal: error running install command for nvidia
[03:00] <ntoxin> Octabit, dont mind it I cant remember most IRC commands either!
[03:00] <BadElvis> hi! i'm trying to install a ubuntu lamp server. but "Select and install software" stops at 85% saying "Installed update-manger-core"
[03:00] <BadElvis> whats wrong?
[03:01] <momal> shiznit: hmmm
[03:01] <xen_> hey is it safe to use the repositorys for gutsy if im running fiesty? for such apps as apache/snort etc?
[03:01] <jrib> xen_: no
[03:01] <xen_> ok
[03:01] <shiznit> sudo modprobe nvidia dint do anything
[03:01] <shiznit> except gimme taht error
[03:01] <cwillu> xen_: it'll upgrade a bunch of stuff to gutsy versions, without the benefit of the update tool
[03:02] <cwillu> xen_: might work, but you'll be unsupportable, and probably have to reinstall unless you like playing with dpkg on your weekends :p
[03:02] <xen_> ive got the latetest kernel 2.6.22 if that makes a difference
[03:02] <Hadeshorn> Hey i installed Gdesklets from the repository but it just crashes when it starts
[03:03] <Hadeshorn> says something about checking the log file.. where would i find this log file?
[03:03] <cwillu> xen_: it doesn't.
[03:03] <jrib> shiznit: I had this problem once.  I droppped to a terminal, purged all the nvidia-glx* and linux-restricted-modules* packages, installed them again and it worked after reboot.  There's probably some more straightforward way but I don't know it
[03:03] <cacing_keren> taufik
[03:03] <momal> shiznit: hmmm... after you ran the installer you started X straight away right?... you didn't reboot or anything else in between
[03:03] <cwillu> xen_: really, seriously, don't do it unless you fix the os installs for fun
[03:03] <wiem> how can you download music or movies with IRC?
[03:03] <shiznit> momal, i didnt reboot
[03:03] <tech0007> hi everyone
[03:03] <xen_> ok, i wont go there lol

[03:14] <ubuntuuser123> does anyone here feel like helping me?
[03:14] <jrib> RoR2is: is what you are trying to install different than what the "rails" package in universe provides?

[03:14] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[03:14] <shiznit> momal, still at terminal but no error

[03:15] <chimerazz> Hey anyone know how to install kde4beta in ubuntu
[03:15] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, is the space adjacent and to the right of your ext3 (linux) partition?
[03:15] <ubuntuuser123> astro, ill check
[03:15] <ubuntuuser123> no, it's to the left
[03:15] <shiznit> momal, i did 'sudo /etc/init.d.gdm start', is says starting gnome ...... OK
[03:16] <shiznit> and im still at terminal
[03:16] <shiznit> but no bsod like b4
[03:16] <momal> shiznit: press ctrl+alt+f7
[03:16] <bioxg> but i'm a jackeroo, so..
[03:16] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, with some filesystems including ext3, parted cannot move the beginning (left edge) of the partition

[03:16] <umarzuki> need help with my external hd
[03:17] <umarzuki> it's an ntfs external hd
[03:17] <ubuntuuser123> it's not in the beginning though
[03:17] <bioxg> are there some software can help me?
[03:17] <bullgard4> Why is there no manual page for 'libdiscover1'?
[03:17] <momal> shiznit: hmmm <****@#$@#^@&^!**> <-- internal rage attack lol.. umm
[03:17] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, if you want me to look at your setup then pastebin the output of this: sudo parted /dev/sda print
[03:17] <astro76> !pastebin | ubuntuuser123

[03:17] <novato_br> is there crossing over for office 2007 ?
[03:17] <novato_br> yes or no ?
[03:17] <shiznit> momal, yea this is getting ridiculous, there have to be people using ubuntu w/8800gtx successfully
[03:17] <astro76> maybe?
[03:18] <cwillu> novato_br: don't believe so
[03:18] <novato_br> thx
[03:18] <cwillu> novato_br: check codeweavers.com
[03:18] <RoR2is> Jrib :  this is what I am trying to install .. check it out http://linrails.thembid.com/
[03:18] <shiznit> momal, woudl you like the detailed x server output?
[03:18] <momal> shiznit: ok do /etc/init.d/gdm stop then "ps aux | grep X" and see if X is still running if it is do "sudo kill PID" change pid with the pid number :)
[03:18] <novato_br> cwillu, thx
[03:19] <momal> shiznit: nar its most likely the same as before... speaking of which does the machine have any sensitive data(as in personal stuff super important) on it ?
[03:19] <jrib> RoR2is: the "rails" package gives you ruby on rails
[03:19] <ubuntuuser123> sudo parted /dev/sda print <-- can anyone here tell me what that does
[03:19] <ubuntuuser123> it lists my partitions, right?
[03:19] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, umm, it prints your partition table
[03:19] <astro76> indeed
[03:19] <RoR2is> jrib :  yes it does
[03:19] <ubuntuuser123> k thx
[03:20] <jrib> RoR2is: and this is different?
[03:20] <shiznit> momal, its whost a line with X at the end
[03:20] <shiznit> shows*
[03:20] <RoR2is> jrib :  what's different ?  are you familiar with instancerails for windows.  If so its exactly the same except its for Linux
[03:20] <shiznit> momal, no the machine is not critical
[03:21] <momal> shiznit: ok seems like X has stopped running. now type "modprobe nvidia" what happens
[03:21] <jrib> RoR2is: no, I'm not familiar with it.  I'm just asking if this linrails thing provides something different that what the "rails" package in ubuntu's repositories provides
[03:21] <shiznit> momal, how do you know it stopped
[03:21] <shiznit> fatal: error runningg install command for nvidia
[03:22] <momal> shiznit: if the only line showing X at the end would mean that line has grep X on the end which is basically just what you ran :)
[03:22] <shiznit> oh ok
[03:23] <chimerazz> anyone know hoe to install kde4 in fiesty
[03:23] <RoR2is> jrib :  It provides This version has Ruby-1.8.6, Rubygems-0.9.4, Rails 1.2.3, Mongrel 1.0.1, MySQL-5.0.41, ncurses-5.6, OpenSSL-0.9.8e, zlib-1.2.3

[03:24] <chimerazz> neumind: be specific
[03:24] <jrib> neumind: system -> preferences -> themes
[03:24] <neumind> its write invalid format.. whats a problem?
[03:25] <chimerazz> neumind:then archive is bad
[03:25] <bioxg> this is my first use irc, so, maybe i make some mistake
[03:25] <chimerazz> !kde4 | chimerazz
[03:26] <jrib> RoR2is: ok, all I am saying is that if these things are in ubuntu's repositories, then you should be using the repositories instead of installing a tar.gz.  With the exception of mongrel, everything on that list seems to be in Ubuntu's repositories.  So my recommendation is to stick to the repositories.  But, if you really want to install linrails instead of using the repositories, then pastebin your command and the full error
[03:26] <rhalff> any suggestions for a good 24" LCD ? (that works with ubuntu) :p
[03:26] <chimerazz> any one on kde4
[03:26] <neumind> i can use kde theme?

[03:30] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:30] <RoR2is> jrib:  how do i list what's on ubuntu's repositories ? and how can i install them ?
[03:30] <bioxg> who know is there any software for biology in ubuntu,thanks!!!
[03:30] <jrib> !software > RoR2is (read the private message from ubotu)
[03:31] <jrib> RoR2is: you use something like add/remove, synaptic or aptitude

[03:32] <ubuntuuser123> Error: Could not stat device /dev/sda - No such file or directory.
[03:32] <DRMacIver> Is the latest version of enlightenment for Ubuntu 7.04 known to be broken?
[03:32] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, find your device in the output of "mount"
[03:32] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, replace /dev/sda with whatever you have
[03:32] <ubuntuuser123> i don't quite understand you
[03:33] <RoR2is> its the ADd/remove GUI ? and the synaptic and aptitude command line ?
[03:33] <monkeyspasm> ok, I have a dell 500m laptop, been running 7.04 happily for months. Today it won't boot.
[03:33] <luks> hi, if I want to fix one translation in the main System menu, any ideas which package in launchpad should I look for?
[03:33] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, type mount, look for /dev/sd* or /dev/hd*
[03:33] <monkeyspasm> haven't changed anything.... HD is OK (I can boot from live CD and see files) but it won't boot
[03:33] <ubuntuuser123> i have hda, hda2, hda3, hda 4, hda 5, hdc
[03:34] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, so use hda instead of sda in the command I gave you
[03:34] <bioxg> thanks! i found it:)
[03:34] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, do the same for hdc
[03:34] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, actually hdc is most likely your cd/dvd

[03:36] <Tominator> hi! I've just upgrade from feisty to gutsy beta... I'm trying to get dualscreen working (I've got a geforce 4 ti 4400)... my first qustion is: is it possible to put out two different resolutions?
[03:36] <clouder> how do I remove kubuntu-desktop? I did sudo apt-get remove kubutu-desktop, but it only removed something like 45k and I still have all these apps cluttering up my menus
[03:36] <Llua> i have been noticing recently that my browser constantly shuts down
[03:36] <shiznit> there is a guide for that on the wiki Tominator
[03:36] <ubuntuuser123> astro76 http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39022/
[03:36] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, and you want to use the space that the ntfs on hda3 is using now?
[03:36] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, I saw it the first time
[03:37] <shiznit> i would use it but i cant evern get the nv driver running
[03:37] <ubuntuuser123> no, it isn't showing the unused space i have
[03:37] <herbaliser> anybody know a good artikel about using lvm?
[03:37] <Super_Cat_Frog> hi - i had xinerama set up yesterday, but its not working today - i tried nvidia settings, but that only see's one screen now, any ideas?
[03:37] <ubuntuuser123> astro76 it's 8 gigs unformatted
[03:37] <shiznit> momal, you afk?
[03:37] <Super_Cat_Frog> i didn't change anything, other than install yesterdays updates
[03:37] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, right, between 2 and 3
[03:37] <momal> shiznit: nope searching forums and google
[03:37] <ubuntuuser123> yeh
[03:38] <momal> shiznit: when you installed the nvidia-glx-new did you run sudo nvidia-glx-config enable after?
[03:38] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, and all the partitions have data you need to keep?
[03:38] <momal> shiznit: from awhile back when you were first trying to fix it
[03:38] <shiznit> no
[03:38] <ubuntuuser123> astro76: yes they do.im just experimenting on ubuntu.
[03:38] <shiznit> but i did check the thing in restriction manager
[03:39] <Tominator> shiznit: so i shouldn't use the gui?
[03:39] <shiznit> ?
[03:39] <shiznit> i was responding to momal sorry
[03:39] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, also where's your swap?
[03:39] <MyUbuntuDied> my Ubuntu machine suddenly won't boot. Not a hardware problem. Haven't changed anything. Any ideas?
[03:40] <se-agapo> hi some help pls
[03:40] <shiznit> momal, is checking it in restriction manager essetially the same thing
[03:40] <momal> not sure
[03:40] <ubuntuuser123> astro76: i don't have one, it warned me during install but i had only little space for linux.i guess a re-install could work...
[03:40] <momal> im just going to read a bit more then get you to try something
[03:40] <bioxg> another problem: i installend xubuntu in my imac G3, but i can't play flash, who can help me? thank you!
[03:40] <shiznit> take your time, ty very much
[03:40] <cwillu> bioxg: flash isn't installed by default
[03:41] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, have you installed it yet?
[03:41] <se-agapo> i have the Eten M700 and i need sychronise programa can some help me pls?
[03:41] <cwillu> bioxg: add/remove programs should have it listed, easy enough to install
[03:41] <ubuntuuser123> astro76: installed what?ubuntu?
[03:41] <astro76> yeah
[03:41] <ubuntuuser123> astro76: ofcourse
[03:41] <emeriste> It turns out that my audio is working fine. My speakers just weren't plugged in.
[03:41] <se-agapo> eten m700 ine pocket pc
[03:41] <ubuntuuser123> astro76:  why else would i be chasing space
[03:41] <Perversus> buenas
[03:42] <bioxg> no, i mean i can not watch flash i internet
[03:42] <AznChino> try mplayer
[03:42] <SpiffyBalak> did you try installing the plugin for Firefox?
[03:42] <AznChino> mplayer firefox plugin yeah :)
[03:42] <AznChino> should work
[03:42] <ubuntuuser123> astro76:  i have installed ubuntu.
[03:43] <RAdams> Any thoughts on Reiser4 as a main FS for an Ubuntu install? I'm on the live CD and pondering a change from ext3
[03:43] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, the thing is the swap has to be a logical partition in the extended partition, so you're kind of constrained with your setup, but here's what you could do...
[03:43] <momal> shiznit: ok try this from terminal "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new" "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable" "sudo nvidia-xconfig" then try to start gdm again
[03:43] <bioxg> but the flash plugin isn't support powerpc....:(
[03:44] <shiznit> momal, its asking for the install cd, proceed?
[03:44] <momal> shiznit: yeah just means the package is on the cd
[03:45] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, 1) move partition 2 to the right the size you want to make your swap partition, at least 256-512 MB. 2) resize the extended partition to fill the space you just made and create a swap in there 3) slide parititon 3 to the left
[03:45] <monkeyspasm> oops... didn mean to quit
[03:45] <shiznit> i love it how networking is unaffected when you close the gui
[03:45] <shiznit> this os is worlds superior to windows
[03:46] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, but then you're kind of stuck, you can't copy the ext3 because you can't make more partitions, you really don't have much options besides backing up and restoring stuff, or just reinstalling Ubuntu
[03:46] <shiznit> only been using it for a few days and i'm hooked
[03:46] <momal> shiznit: ^_^ networking runs on its own... other things will still run as well eg web/mail/ftp/game servers and that :)
[03:46] <ubuntuuser123> astro76: i have another idea.i could reinstall linux, delete the current linux drive, create an ext3 drive then the swap.i have enough free space to create both
[03:46] <ubuntuuser123> astro76: i don't need anything on my ubuntu drive.
[03:46] <baabaablacksheep> what's the difference between the alternate setup and server setup?
[03:46] <shiznit> if valve ports source games to linux its buy buy windows
[03:46] <imperfect-> Anyone know of a good resource monitor that isn't gkrellm?
[03:46] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, you can not make any more primary partitions
[03:47] <Roge> baabaablacksheep, the server setup is minimal it comes with no gui and no services out of the box unless you choose lamp install which installs apache mysql and php
[03:47] <ubuntuuser123> astro76: wah ill try it out
[03:47] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, so you have to do steps 1-3 I mentioned, then you can delete the current ext3, make a new one filling the space, and reinstall
[03:47] <baabaablacksheep> then what's the alternate installation like?
[03:48] <momal> lol shiznit if you muck around with wine/cedega/crossover alot you can get source working alright :p
[03:48] <Roge> the standard install gives you a full workstation. if thats what you mean by alternate
[03:48] <baabaablacksheep> i've tried the server edition yesterday 3 times, but i keep getting a kernel panic after booting
[03:48] <baabaablacksheep> any idea why?
[03:48] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, or I think a better way would be to delete 4, move 3 and 2 all the way right, resize the extended partition, and put both swap and ext3 in there
[03:48] <Roge> ahh, this is a kernel bug im gonna assume it was a apci related panic
[03:48] <ubuntuuser123> astro76:  how the hell do i move partitions
[03:48] <baabaablacksheep> someone told me to test my ram, which i did for 25hrs+
[03:49] <monkeyspasm> my Dell 500m suddenly won boot Ubuntu 7.04. All hardware is fine, data is still on HDD. I haven changed anything. How do I even begin to fix it, other than re-install the OS?
[03:49] <Roge> try the 6.0 lts version of server i didnt have any issues
[03:49] <shiznit> momal, not worth it, rebooting doesnt take that long and i like my games native, i run a noacceleration hack and 1000hz mouse, x-fi cmss3d and such
[03:49] <umarzuki> dude, i need to know hoe to write to my external hd
[03:49] <umarzuki> i mean like now
[03:49] <baabaablacksheep> apci? how do i fix it? i was trying fiesty
[03:49] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, it's pretty self explanatory in gparted
[03:49] <monkeyspasm> Is it possible to re-install the OS but leave the home folders untouched?
[03:49] <momal> shiznit: lol... pro gamer or something :p
[03:49] <SpiffyBalak> yes, if they're on seperate partitions
[03:49] <shiznit> cal cs:s
[03:49] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, select it and click resize move, slide it with the mouse
[03:49] <Roge> yeah like i mentioned baabaablacksheep  use the 6.0 Long Term Support version as i had no issues with it
[03:49] <shiznit> cevo soon
[03:50] <shiznit> not pro though
[03:50] <Roge> however you can boot with the noapci option
[03:50] <monkeyspasm> SpiffyBlalk: Was that to me? THey are on different partitions.
[03:50] <Roge> but for server i suggest using a long term supported release
[03:50] <baabaablacksheep> ok will do.
[03:50] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > umarzuki (read the private message from ubotu)
[03:50] <momal> shiznit: haha nice
[03:50] <SpiffyBalak> yes monkey
[03:50] <baabaablacksheep> anyway, how do i boot with the noapci option?
[03:50] <monkeyspasm> Thanks. I don want to re-install if I can help it.
[03:51] <Roge> in ubuntu im not sure, if you have a boot menu you can try booting an older kernel or using tab to add noapci to the boot line
[03:51] <panosru> hi does anyone knows any app to convert video to 3gp format? (for mobiles)
[03:51] <aguitel> baabaa ,why you need this option?
[03:51] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: when grub starts, hit escape, and edit the kernel line to add that (it's an f-key, listed at the bottom of the screen)
[03:51] <baabaablacksheep> meaning, at grub? cos that's the furthest i can go
[03:51] <Roge> he is getting the apci kernel panic
[03:51] <shiznit> momal, error:your X configuration has been altered, script cannot proceed automatically
[03:51] <Roge> baabaablacksheep, yes
[03:51] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: if you need it permanently, you can edit ##kopts in /boot/grub/menu.lst, and then run update-grub
[03:51] <monkeyspasm> What could have gone wrong with my machine that now it won't boot? It shows the grub and then starting up but then just blackness...
[03:51] <i> hi
[03:51] <momal> shiznit: which command said that
[03:52] <i> hi
[03:52] <cwillu> monkeyspasm: edit the kernel line, and remove 'splash quiet'
[03:52] <jrib> i: hello, welcome to #ubuntu
[03:52] <baabaablacksheep> ok, i'm going to try that. 3 server installs and i was about to install the alternate edition
[03:52] <cwillu> it'll give you some insight
[03:52] <shiznit> momal, the 'enable' one, its says more stuff about updating md5sumd entry with a command
[03:52] <Roge> yeah you dont need the alternate Edition if you cant get it to boot with noapci use the older version of server
[03:52] <Roge> its more stable and supported longer
[03:52] <DevideZero> i have found 2 bugs ( first in kde , second in kopete ) what i need todo ?

[03:54] <ubuntuuser123> astro76: well there's a problem with that...i can't Move/Resize ANY disk currently in there.
[03:54] <monkeyspasm> Cwillu: Which message?
[03:54] <cwillu> monkeyspasm: the one about removing quiet and splash
[03:54] <shiznit> momal, new config written
[03:54] <DevideZero> jrib , WOW 31699 bug :| who will fix all these
[03:54] <monkeyspasm> Cwillu: No, I didn see that
[03:54] <momal> shiznit: then try /etc/init.d gdm start
[03:54] <ubuntuuser123> astro76: i might try logging in as root.....
[03:55] <jrib> DevideZero: "help wanted" :)  If you are interested
[03:55] <baabaablacksheep> er, can guide me through the noapci thing?
[03:55] <astro76> ubuntuuser123, you need to do this from a livecd
[03:55] <shiznit> momal, failet to start x server
[03:55] <ubuntuuser123> okay
[03:55] <DevideZero> jrib , i am but i dont understand in programing
[03:56] <ubuntuuser123> astro76: ill be back soon ...from a live cd.
[03:56] <momal> shiznit: >_<... try just running X and does it say the same error ?
[03:56] <monkeyspasm> cwillu: Please re-post your quiet/splash message. I was out of the channel for a minute so I don have it logged.
[03:56] <shiznit> momal, fatal server error: no screens found
[03:56] <jrib> DevideZero: you can do a lot to help without being a programmer: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/GettingInvolved
[03:56] <cwillu> monkeyspasm: reboot, hit escape in the grub prompt, edit the kernel line, removing splash and quiet
[03:56] <`rusty`> help! nautilus keeps on re-spawning (and freezing) cuz it can't read a directory.  I can't kill it because it just respawns! Any ideas?
[03:57] <cwillu> monkeyspasm: it'll give you a bunch of messages when you boot, which should make narrowing down the problem easier
[03:57] <momal> shiznit: up a little bit is it still the same "Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module"
[03:57] <monkeyspasm> Cwillu: Thanks. That sounds very very helpful.
[03:57] <shiznit> momal, yes
[03:57] <monkeyspasm> Il be back when I have more data. Wife is currently using the machine (from the live CD) though...
[03:57] <jrib> `rusty`: system -> prefernces -> session  is where you set whether or not it restarts.  If you kill it enough times, it will not come back though
[03:59] <superman1490> Does anyone here know about the problem with Intel I9xx drivers and the desktop effects?
[03:59] <tiax> I have an USB hard disk with a vfat partition where I keep ext3 driveres for windows. Obviously, I don't need that partition when I run linux, yet it's always mounted when I plug in the drive. How can I disable it? adding it to fstab with noauto, without permissions for my user and with a mount point not under /media didn't help
[03:59] <`rusty`> jrib: is that under the style? (change it to "normal"?)
[04:00] <shiznit> superman1490, what problem, running fine here
[04:00] <superman1490> Oh yeah, I mean, they won't enable for some reason.
[04:00] <jrib> `rusty`: yes
[04:00] <`rusty`> superb - thanks
[04:00] <baabaablacksheep> er, can guide me through how to set the noapci mode in grub?
[04:00] <superman1490> When I first installed, it worked but after updates it started telling me my card had been blacklisted
[04:00] <RoR2is> I have an external network card.  and do i need to install the drive on UBUNTU in order to be able to use a wi-fi ?
[04:00] <shiznit> jrib, should i stick with the i8xx driver or the newer "intel" one thats not installed by default
[04:00] <momal> shiznit: its making me think its this latest driver and the one from nvidia-glx... brb im going to install latest from the website and see if it works fine for me
[04:01] <jrib> shiznit: don't you have an nvidia card?
[04:01] <shiznit> jrib, im chatting here on ubuntu laptop
[04:01] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: you'll need to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, using a command like gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:01] <sitter> hello
[04:01] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: look for the line that says #kopt=....... (or something like that)
[04:01] <sitter> # timisoara
[04:01] <sitter> #timisoara
[04:01] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: add noacpi or whatever you need to the end,
[04:02] <baabaablacksheep> i'm getting a kernel panic, so can't boot into the system at all
[04:02] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: and then run sudo grub-update
[04:02] <shiznit> jrib, the intel works great and i have compiz fusion runing, i was just wondering if there was any benefit to the other driver
[04:02] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: okay, can you get into the grub menu (at first boot)
[04:02] <baabaablacksheep> yup, at that.
[04:02] <jrib> shiznit: you're using the intel driver on an nvidia card?  interesting I guess...
[04:03] <RoR2is> jrib : I have an external network card.  and do i need to install the drive on UBUNTU in order to be able to use a wi-fi ?
[04:03] <shiznit> jrib, no lol i have nvidia on desktop, this is intel gfx laptop
[04:03] <baabaablacksheep> cwillu, yup, i'm at the grub screen now.
[04:03] <warbler> baabaablacksheep: in terminal - sudo gedit /etc/fstab - scroll to the line that starts kernel after the line "end defaults" - go to end of the line and type - noapic nolapic - save and reboot
[04:03] <jrib> !wifi > RoR2is (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:03] <nekr0z> hello all
[04:03] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: at the bottom, there should be a list of keys you can press
[04:03] <jrib> shiznit: ah
[04:03] <baabaablacksheep> ya, press e right?
[04:03] <cwillu> yes
[04:03] <unimatrix9> any macbook users around today?
[04:03] <baabaablacksheep> should i use recovery mode or it doesn't matter?
[04:03] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: and add the command at the end
[04:04] <jrib> shiznit: if the one in the repos works fine for you, I would stick with that one
[04:04] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: recoverymode will dump you at a console, if you're comfortable fixing things from there
[04:04] <shiznit> jrib, there is another one in there, i was just wondering if its faster
[04:04] <nekr0z> got a problem with 'route' - SIOCADDRT: No such process, and the manual doesn't say anything about this error. what the hell does it mean?
[04:04] <baabaablacksheep> i can try
[04:04] <baabaablacksheep> how do i do it?
[04:04] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: don't, just add the line to the normal kernel line
[04:04] <cwillu> one sec
[04:04] <baabaablacksheep> ok
[04:05] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep:  after ro quiet splash, add the line you need
[04:05] <SpiffyBalak> anyone know how to specify the programs that run upon inserting a DVD?
[04:05] <momal> shiznit: seems the drivers are fine :(
[04:06] <SpiffyBalak> both gxine and totem are starting up when I put in DVDs
[04:06] <shiznit> grr
[04:06] <baabaablacksheep> meaning add noapci?
[04:06] <cwillu> SpiffyBalak: I think it's in gconf-editor somewhere
[04:06] <jrib> shiznit: no idea if they are any faster
[04:06] <SpiffyBalak> ok thanks
[04:06] <baabaablacksheep> so i get "ro quiet splash noapci"?
[04:06] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: assuming that's the command you need, yes
[04:06] <jrib> SpiffyBalak: system -> preferences -> removable drives and media
[04:06] <DevideZero> someone know how to use cedega ?
[04:06] <baabaablacksheep> so, what command should i be using?
[04:06] <SpiffyBalak> I forgot to tell you I'm in Xfce
[04:06] <unimatrix9> yes
[04:07] <unimatrix9> cedega comes with an gui frontend
[04:07] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: well, probably noacpi, if that's what you came across, but honestly I don't know
[04:07] <shiznit> momal, i could wait for gutsy i guess
[04:07] <unimatrix9> unless you install it from cvs
[04:07] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: there's a bunch of different ones you might use in different situations
[04:07] <momal> shiznit: lol you could.. but it should still work >_<
[04:07] <shiznit> yea no kiddin
[04:07] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: i.e., on older ibm desktops, noapic nolapic acpi=off is required to work around a faulty timer that hangs the machine after 16 or so hours
[04:07] <DevideZero> unimatrix9 , i have file names "elma.exe" , this si the game start file , no an install , how i can runit with cedega ?
[04:07] <baabaablacksheep> erm, so what should i do?
[04:08] <momal> shiznit: "modprobe nvidia" do that again and is it the same install error ?
[04:08] <baabaablacksheep> i'm using ibm x31 laptop
[04:08] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: where did you get the noacpi line from?
[04:08] <myconid> How do I transcode a 500mb, 3 minute, 320x200 quicktime video into something more reasonable I can upload to youtube.
[04:08] <shiznit> momal, does nothing
[04:08] <momal> omg thats good
[04:08] <momal> start up gdm again
[04:08] <SpiffyBalak> myconid: try media-convert.com
[04:08] <nekr0z> got a problem with 'route' - SIOCADDRT: No such process, and the manual doesn't say anything about this error. what the hell does it mean?
[04:08] <shiznit> i could reinstall os later and try from scratch
[04:09] <baabaablacksheep> someone was telling me i have a kernel panic
[04:09] <unimatrix9> DevideZore : there is two way's to run it : first rightclick and choose run with cedega, second is open the gui and add game with add menu, and then run like you would the installer, but use the exe instead of the setup...
[04:09] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: if that's what they suggested, then give it a shot;  worst case, it still won't boot
[04:09] <unimatrix9> your choice
[04:09] <petru> hello guys! can i have xorg and xgl drivers install at the same time?
[04:09] <baabaablacksheep> i'm already installed server edition. supposedly the install went fine, but i can't boot.
[04:09] <baabaablacksheep> i've already tried the noapci thing, but still no go.
[04:10] <unimatrix9> petru xgl is an part of xorg
[04:10] <momal> shiznit: well if it doesn't start now that wouldnt' be a bad idea. if you installed from scratch then first thing you do after it gets into the desktop is stop gdm and X wget the nvidia drivers install them and never install anything to do with nvidia again :p
[04:10] <unimatrix9> or can be..
[04:10] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: k;  in the grub menu, go into edit, and remove 'quiet splash'
[04:10] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: that'll give you more output to go on
[04:10] <shiznit> momal, nvidia-glx-new?
[04:11] <shiznit> momal, it says start.... ok but im still at terminal
[04:11] <Drakas> Hello, in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch , can someone explain to me how is /casper/filesystem.squashfs loaded when the system boots?
[04:11] <momal> shiznit: well you could try them but i have never had to use them. always used the one from the nvidia website so
[04:11] <petru> unimatrix9, ok, but for running compiz or beryl, what driver should i use. because, after installing xgl, i have desktop effects but beryl is not working!
[04:11] <Drakas> I try to boot an image using QEMU, but I get "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off"
[04:11] <DevideZero> someone know about audio player for linux that know to read the mp3 files tags like windows media player know ? ( for non - english audio mp3 files ) ?
[04:11] <momal> shiznit: "ps aux | grep gdm" does it say /usr/bin/gdm is running ?
[04:11] <baabaablacksheep> at the boot up after grub, i get kernel panic immediately.
[04:12] <shiznit> momal, 2 lines root and user
[04:12] <panosru> hi, how can i convert video files into 3gp format?
[04:12] <unimatrix9> petru : thats an hard one, there seems to be an program for it , compiz-icon i think its called, google for it ...i will too , hold on...
[04:12] <momal> shiznit: try "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[04:12] <unimatrix9> petru wich version of ubuntu?
[04:13] <petru> unimatrix9, running 7.04
[04:13] <shiznit> momal, bsod again
[04:13] <shiznit> im gonna reinstall
[04:13] <goldenswordsman> hi
[04:13] <unimatrix9> hmm, let me think, is it not beryl-manager that you need?
[04:13] <petru> unimatrix9, i guess i need xorg 3d acceleration for beryl. not compatible with xgl
[04:14] <Roge> any reason i cant apt-get install proftpd ?
[04:14] <baabaablacksheep> it's still not working...
[04:14] <goldenswordsman> hi
[04:14] <unimatrix9> petru , is 3D working?
[04:14] <goldenswordsman> i need help can anyone help me?
[04:14] <Roge> baabaablacksheep, if the noapci option doesnt work
[04:14] <cwillu> baabaablacksheep: what's the kernel panic, and what was the last thing that happened before you got that panic?
[04:14] <unimatrix9> petru : glxinfo | grep direct
[04:14] <momal> shiznit: damn lol yeah try reinstall... what nvidia driver you going to try first? glx-new or one from the website?
[04:14] <Roge> all i can suggest is using the 6.0 server
[04:14] <cwillu> (I mean, before you couldn't reboot)
[04:14] <petru> unimatrix9, one moment
[04:14] <goldenswordsman> i need to take ubuntu off
[04:14] <shiznit> momal, beats me i just want it to work
[04:14] <cwillu> !ask | goldenswordsman
[04:14] <ubotu> goldenswordsman: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:15] <petru> unimatrix9, yes, 3d ok
[04:15] <goldenswordsman> i need to take ubuntu off
[04:15] <shiznit> momal, im using alternate cd btw, the regular one booted to black screen
[04:15] <baabaablacksheep> i've a Int 14, and the only thing that happened was that there was a "Starting up"
[04:15] <riotkittie> shiznit: you still having problems? :o
[04:15] <momal> shiznit: haha yeah i hate finding things that don't work and i dont' know why >_<.. ahh yeah that shouldnt' matter the contents of them both are the same
[04:16] <unimatrix9> petru : wich packages did you install for running beryl now?
[04:16] <weltall> i have two partitions one for /home and another for /. i'd like to format / and then put gutsy. it's a good idea retaining hidden folders with configurations in the home folder or it's better removing them?
[04:16] <shiznit> riotkittie, yes nvidia hates me even though i have owned almost every card they ever made since tnt2
[04:16] <momal> haha riotkittie i have tried everything >_<... drivers from the website, reinstalling removing >_<
[04:16] <nekr0z> got a problem with 'route' - SIOCADDRT: No such process, and the manual doesn't say anything about this error. what the hell does it mean?
[04:16] <petru> unimatrix9, sudo apt-get install beryl beryl-manager beryl-core beryl-plugins beryl-settings emerald emerald-themes
[04:17] <riotkittie> shiznit: sorry to hear that.
[04:17] <unimatrix9> petru : did you run beryl-manager from the terminal on gnome yet?
[04:17] <RAdams> anyone have strong INFORMED opinions about using reiserfs vs ext3?
[04:17] <shiznit> there have to be people that run 8800 on ubuntu lol
[04:17] <DevideZero> someone know about audio player for linux that know to read the mp3 files tags like windows media player know ? ( for non - english audio mp3 files ) ?
[04:17] <RAdams> DevideZero: I've been able to get Rhythmbox to read non-english mp3 tags
[04:18] <cwillu> RAdams: #ubuntu-offtopic #linux or #kernel might have better informed people (or more conversational at least)
[04:18] <momal> DevideZero: if you want to install the kdelibs... amarok will do that fine
[04:18] <SpiffyBalak> Devide: there's a plugin for XMMS that lets you do that
[04:18] <jaek> my menu icons are gone, did i mistakenly remove a package i shouldnt have with "autoremove"?
[04:18] <shiznit> riotkittie, you could probably fund a village with the money i've spent onnvidia
[04:18] <unimatrix9> was it not called easy tag ? to read mp3 and edit it?
[04:18] <petru> unimatrix9, istalled xorg, installed xgl, create xgl sesion, running xgl sesio, enabled 3d desktop effects, installed berryl, running beryl manager, but i dont have trail focus, water effects, etc
[04:19] <Llua> i have been having random shutdowns of firefox and im trying to find the culprit.
[04:19] <michael_> hello,  need a cd-burn program for ubuntu 5.10
[04:19] <unimatrix9> petru : but does the beryl-manager run?
[04:19] <SpiffyBalak> k3b
[04:19] <petru> unimatrix9,  yes it does
[04:19] <unimatrix9> cd-burn program gnome-baker
[04:20] <baabaablacksheep> is it possible to install a minimal install using alternative version? choose command line mode?
[04:20] <paxmanchris>  hey ubuntu users. i have a question about ubuntu mobile (and im asking here because that chat room(#ubuntu-mobile) is unresponsive )
[04:20] <paxmanchris> can #ubuntu-mobile be use in vmware or qumu?
[04:20] <Llua> question. could ram stick arangment on mobo make a difference interms of errors.
[04:20] <michael_> thank you very nuch unitmatrix9
[04:20] <riotkittie> shiznit: i have only had the misfortune of owning ATIs
[04:20] <unimatrix9> petru - i guess the other effects have to do with your video card, search the forums for that...
[04:20] <error403> hi there
[04:20] <DevideZero> momal , im talking about ol cp1255 , and iso encode tags will amarok read them ?
[04:21] <shiznit> riotkittie, they were good until shader 3.0 came around
[04:21] <momal> DevideZero: if you can link me to a file with these i can tell you if it reads them fine
[04:21] <Llua> both my browsers, often just shutdown. they just close as i look through pages. i was wandering if that could be a ram issue
[04:21] <petru> unimatrix9, i have a x1300 radeon pciexpress
[04:21] <neumind> wher need to go when i wannt when ubuntu start and skype witch him start//
[04:22] <shiznit> riotkittie, then their cards got way hotter, fans louder and their partners dont have lifetime warranties
[04:22] <unimatrix9> petru :   i dont know , since i have nvidia please take an read here , see if you find some answers ...for your card there http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_beryl_ati_radeon
[04:22] <Jopie> Ok, so I'm stuck with a little problem: I've got a ubuntu 5.04 install that I'm trying to update, but archive.ubuntu.com doesn't seem to have all the neccesary files anymore: apt-get update returns a whole bunch of errors
[04:22] <Jopie> anybody have any ideas?
[04:22] <petru> unimatrix9,  thanks a lot. what country are u from. im from romania
[04:23] <unimatrix9> jopie , why not  back up the whole lot , and do an new fresh install of an newer version?
[04:23] <unimatrix9> thats what i would do in your case
[04:23] <Jopie> I would, but that means having to digg around for one that works :(
[04:23] <LjL> Jopie: use http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ as repository
[04:23] <error403> Hi, I tried to install mythtv a few times and I know it's hosed for good now.  Is there a way to completely remove mythtv so I can apt-get install mythtv mythtv-backend from scratch?
[04:23] <DevideZero> momal , hebrew cp1255 , and iso-8859-8 encode . . .
[04:23] <riotkittie> shiznit: yea, my husband has a nvidia in his box, and it's like flaming death.
[04:23] <Jopie> unimatrix9: Ubuntu 7 hates the computer - it won't install :P
[04:24] <unimatrix9> jopie lts 6.06 is long term support, so ?
[04:24] <baabaablacksheep> hmm, seems that there's a bug with what i'm having. i googled ubuntu int 14 and it threw up tons of sites.
[04:24] <LjL> Jopie: still, it's quite likely that you'll encounter problems somewhere on your way to incrementally upgrading up to feisty...
[04:24] <zetheroo> does anyone here know how to run CTRL+ALT+SHIFT as a command in the terminal?
[04:24] <shiznit> riotkittie, you can heat an small room with my 8800gtx
[04:24] <momal> DevideZero: I need some characters(or text) of both or either of them to test it
[04:24] <Jopie> LjL: oh well, we'll see :P I should be getting more ram for this old puppy soon :P
[04:24] <unimatrix9> go for 6.06 long term support and test it
[04:24] <unimatrix9> jopie : or use puppy linux ...:P
[04:24] <shiznit> riotkittie, but i was refering to ati going downhill after the x800 series
[04:25] <baabaablacksheep> haha, puppy is damn great!

[04:34] <lindy> hello, I submitted a bug report, and just got an e-mail from ron Sisak <aron@ubuntu.hu, telling me to open a term, so, here I am
[04:34] <Retroqqq> hello
[04:35] <Retroqqq> i would like some help concerning my printer
[04:35] <zerogx> anyone know a way i can convert a partition from ReiserFS to EXT2 without losing data?
[04:35] <dannyboy79> how do I tell mythdvd to start ripping?
[04:35] <nbkr> zerogx, No way to do that.
[04:35] <zerogx> nbkr: damn..
[04:35] <dannyboy79> i hate mythtv documentation.
[04:35] <xlizardxxxxx> noelferreira, wpa_supplicant can handle that stuff ... but i am not sure if it can hande unencrypted connections as well
[04:36] <nbkr> Retroqqq, Just ask your question.
[04:36] <Retroqqq> ok
[04:36] <unimatrix9> zerogx  : whats on the drive?
[04:36] <noelferreira> xlizardxxxxx: there's no way to change /etc/network/interfaces file?
[04:37] <Retroqqq> i cant get my selphy cp720 printer to work
[04:37] <momal> DevideZero: It doesn't seem to show up correctly. If you edit the tags though the characters will show fine. But I don't think you will want to edit your whole music collection
[04:37] <xlizardxxxxx> noelferreira, afaik its not ... because u want hat have diffent profiles for one card ... (?)
[04:37] <LjL> nbkr, zerogx: not entirely true, "apt-cache show convertfs". but it's EXTREMELY dangerous, and when i say extremely dangerous, i DON'T mean just as dangerous as using gparted or things like that. i mean dangerous.
[04:37] <tuadmin> alguien habal espaol
[04:37] <unimatrix9> zerogx  : i would suggest , backup files to an external drive and format the partition as you like then mount it and use the external drive to put the files back ( unless its an ubuntu system install .. )
[04:37] <LjL> !es | tuadmin
[04:37] <ubotu> tuadmin: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.

[04:50] <zoldar> thank you, i was thinking about something with similar interface, not too bloated
[04:50] <Retroqqq> cant find that but it is a postcard printer
[04:50] <jrib> element3: huh?
[04:50] <Arepie> finn: tried automatix ? getautomatix.com
[04:50] <Retroqqq> soory double
[04:50] <jrib> !automatix | Arepie, finn
[04:50] <ubotu> Arepie, finn: Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[04:50] <jrib> !nvidia > finn (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:50] <MattUK> Arepie: I dont think you are allowed to reccomend that here - i got told off once!
[04:50] <vsayikiran> i am not able to read indic script in firefox
[04:50] <shiznit> momal, should i update the os before the envy script
[04:50] <finn> thanks
[04:50] <MattUK> !easyubuntu
[04:50] <ubotu> easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ - For help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu
[04:51] <vsayikiran> from where can i download any indic language pack
[04:51] <Arepie> MattUK: hehe.. i see.. ok.. the next time.. i will just shut up.. :P
[04:51] <ubuntuuser123> can anyone tell me how do i MOVE PARTITIONS IN GPARTED?I'M GETTING KIND OF FRUSTRATED HERE........
[04:51] <momal> shiznit:... umm yeah wont hurt it shouldnt' update anything that would affect it
[04:51] <element3> jirib:sometimes it takes a long time to get into the point
[04:51] <jrib> ubuntuuser123: there's no need for the caps
[04:51] <MattUK> so without causing an arguement, is easyubuntu safer than automatix or are they both non reccomended products?
[04:51] <Arepie> beside.. can i get rid of password/username when user try to get in my share folder?
[04:51] <jrib> element3: I have no idea what you are trying to say
[04:51] <element3> jirib:I prefer to talk to the GODs like U ;)
[04:52] <element3> jirj
[04:52] <jrib> MattUK: both unnecessary
[04:52] <kevinO> signifer123:  its an iogear
[04:52] <vsayikiran> i want to read indic script in firefox, from where can i download language pack, or indic fonts
[04:52] <ubuntuuser123> jrib: theres no need for the smart mouth, i'd rather have you help me?
[04:52] <MattUK> jrib: yes i guessed that, i used it when i first moved to linux to make things easier for myself - going to install 7.10 when that comes out and will be staying clear of anything such as automatix or easyubuntu
[04:53] <element3> jirib:anywy
[04:53] <Arepie> can i get rid of password/username when user try to get in my share folder?
[04:53] <Dr_willis> ubuntuuser123,  i normally use the gparted live cd, and resize the partitions in front/back of the one i wish to move, then slide it over.
[04:54] <vsayikiran> please help me,
[04:54] <element3> jirib:how can I have Windows XP Classic theme on UBUBNTO as sharp aspossible
[04:54] <twoshadetod> anyway to have ubuntu display my photos in say "MYSAVEDPIX" that is on another system, shared through SMB, it just doesn't seem to want to give that little thumbnail view ability while remote?
[04:54] <jrib> !themes > element3 (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:55] <jrib> element3: there are a couple of windows themes on gnome-look.org
[04:55] <Dr_willis> icky :)
[04:55] <element3> jirib: I just search but don't find classic theme
[04:55] <element3> !themes
[04:55] <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
[04:55] <jrib> element3: I don't know of one offhand
[04:55] <Dr_willis> twoshadetod,   you mean to say youa re accessing a windows share named 'mysavedpix' on a linux machine?
[04:56] <shiznit> whoever invented opacify is a genius because opacify + focus follows cursor = win
[04:56] <MenZa> ;o
[04:56] <element3> jirib:what do u mean by offhand ... ?!
[04:57] <jrib> element3: I don't know of one from memory
[04:57] <deebo> can anyone help with this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3445010
[04:57] <vsayikiran> why ubuntu doesn't support indic scripts
[04:58] <twoshadetod> Dr_willis, rather, it's another linux box, but the protocol i use is samba (just so my wife can store and retreive stuff on her xp machine) , one of the folders on there is like "MYPIX" or something , thing is, I have to manually open every picture to see instead of just opening the directory and seeing a bunch of thumbnail previews , like i would on my local machine
[04:58] <DevideZero> momal . . . that is what im tlaking about so someone know about audio player taht let me choose the tags encode ?
[04:58] <element3> jirib: I did find lots of classic themes there but none were XP ...
[04:58] <quigley3> which pkg can i use for displaying, creating and playing sheet music?
[04:58] <element3> jirib: and
[04:58] <element3> jirib: I mean XP by its all details...
[04:58] <BobSapp> O_O
[04:59] <vsayikiran> which package is required to support indic scripts
[04:59] <twoshadetod> Dr_willis, scratch that, I am a moron
[04:59] <baabaablacksheep> YAY! alt install cd works...
[04:59] <ahgrjfjfkfllflf> Is ubundu better than redfat?
[04:59] <Dr_willis> twoshadetod, so you are usign the smb:// feature of the file manager correct? that cant do previews since the filesystem isent actually mounted. You could access the shares some other way. Or if its another linux box., use the sshfs, or sambafs tools to access them as a normal 'directory'
[04:59] <astro76> vsayikiran, try asking in #ubuntu-in
[04:59] <vsayikiran> ok
[04:59] <shiznit> way better for a noob like me so far
[04:59] <Dr_willis> twoshadetod,  find a setting somewhere eh? :)
[04:59] <twoshadetod> Dr_willis, I guess it just is turned off on by default on remote
[05:00] <Retroqqq> is anyone in here really good in printing related problems?
[05:00] <ahgrjfjfkfllflf> what we call as robots?
[05:00] <Dr_willis> twoshadetod,  correct :) i was thinking that also. But the 'mount the share' thing is handy for other files as well. like mp3s and so forth.
[05:00] <ahgrjfjfkfllflf> especially netbots?
[05:00] <twoshadetod> Dr_willis, hehhee yeah and it was like the 1st palce i should have checked
[05:00] <shiznit> y do people still run beryl if its been fused in to compiz?
[05:00] <sistom> my comptuer is no long recognizing eth1
[05:00] <sistom> why?
[05:00] <twoshadetod> Dr_willis, it was like in Options..... :( on nautilus or w/e gnome uses to browse hahaha
[05:00] <BobSapp> shiznit: isnt there a different theme manager?
[05:00] <sistom> I wake up and it won't connect to my wireless network
[05:00] <DevideZero> Retroqqq wich printer ?
[05:01] <Retroqqq> its a selphy cp 720
[05:01] <sistom> ....
[05:01] <shiznit> bobsapp, i just started using ubuntu, but apparently beryl is no longer developed but people still use it u was wondering why
[05:01] <DevideZero> Retroqqq , sorry i dont know it , but search in u8buntu fotums and google
[05:01] <shiznit> I8
[05:01] <shiznit> i*
[05:01] <sistom> does no one know?
[05:02] <Dr_willis> sistom,  you really havent given any real details
[05:02] <BobSapp> shiznit: no but at least you can try both
[05:02] <Retroqqq> thanx i ll take look there
[05:02] <BobSapp> for some beryl works where compiz doesnt
[05:02] <murkyMurk> how can i 'link' the volume control for my front speaker to also control my rear speakers?
[05:02] <Ongaku> hmmm...I have SigmaTel audio on my computer and it sounds like crap on here...do I have to configure it somehow?
[05:02] <Dr_willis> sistom, was the pc in sleep/suspend/hibernate mode?
[05:02] <boubbin> i installed apache2 with apt and the userdirs arent shoing up, i get 404 not found, how to fix ?
[05:02] <BobSapp> personally compiz fusion works better than beryl in my case but im on nvidia
[05:02] <overridex> is there a separate channel for ubuntu 64-bit issues or is this it?
[05:02] <shiznit> but if compiz fusion works then stick with it?
[05:02] <sistom> yea
[05:02] <BobSapp> boubbin: you might need to configure your httpd.conf
[05:02] <element3> jirib: where are u from dear
[05:02] <DjViper> compromised fruitcake
[05:03] <sistom> I've tried restarting already
[05:03] <overridex> does anyone know of a howto or repo to get epsxe working on amd64?
[05:03] <boubbin> BobSapp how to ?
[05:03] <shiznit> hopefully the new x-fi driver works
[05:03] <Ongaku> it doesn't even work...it sets teh device to Intel somehow lol
[05:03] <jrib> element3: you need to use "jrib" if you want to trigger my hilight.  I don't use any windows themes, so I find the same thing as you do when is search for "windows" at gnome-look.org
[05:03] <BobSapp> for me, the webroot is /var/www
[05:03] <Dr_willis> overridex,  emulators can often be a big pain to get going on 64bit. since they often use assembly code.
[05:03] <momal> DevideZero: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=41784 and http://rusxmms.sourceforge.net/ You might want to try them to re-encode the tags on your mp3's so they show up find in the audio players
[05:03] <boubbin> BobSapp my httpd.conf is empty
[05:03] <Arepie> is there a download manager that support premium account from rapidshare and etc.. ?
[05:03] <BobSapp> boubbin: you could try asking in #apache but there are loads of howtos
[05:03] <monkeyspasm> can anyone advise me on using fsck?
[05:03] <BobSapp> lol ok
[05:03] <BobSapp> uhm
[05:03] <Dr_willis> overridex,  one reason i stick with 32bit.
[05:04] <BobSapp> boubbin: mine too
[05:04] <BobSapp> apache.conf
[05:04] <shiznit> too bad 32bit only see 3.2gb of ram, beats emulating stuff i guess
[05:04] <BobSapp> my mistake
[05:04] <Ongaku> is there a equalizer on Rhythmbox?
[05:04] <BobSapp> boubbin: check apache.conf
[05:04] <Dr_willis> monkeyspasm,  what sort of advice you trying to  get.
[05:04] <element3> jirib: sure
[05:05] <Dr_willis> shiznit,  ive heard that 32bit cant see whats OVER 4gb.. but then again.. it may be a bios issue also on some machines..
[05:05] <jrib> Arepie: wget can download from rapidshare though I don't know if this is what you are looking for exactly....  Google for "wget rapidshare"
[05:05] <Dr_willis> Ionly have 3 gb of ram.. so cant try it either way. :)
[05:05] <monkeyspasm> Dr_willis: My machine was refusing to boot. Turns out it is failing the boot-time disk check, and it tells me I have to fix /dev/sd2 using fsck. I don know anyhitng about that.
[05:05] <Dr_willis> 'only' 3gb of ram. :)
[05:06] <BobSapp> boubbin: check /etc/apache2/mods-available/userdir.conf
[05:06] <Dr_willis> monkeyspasm,  i would boot a live cd, and using its shell do 'fsck /dev/whateveritssayingtocheck'
[05:06] <Ongaku> is there an equalizer in Rhythmbox at all? My sound sounds awful on here
[05:06] <shiznit> Dr_willis, its a virtual memory limitation issue afaik, 32 bit os can only see 4gb total, so what ever video card ram you have it will be subtracted from available system ram, i was hoping this wouldnt happen in linux
[05:06] <murkyMurk> any takers? Using Alsa Master channel to behave like a master instead of just being 'front-pair-level'?
[05:06] <erUSUL> Ongaku: no that i know of
[05:06] <Ongaku> poo
[05:06] <kaChr> does anyone have a min or 2 to help me with installing and running bittornado
[05:06] <rukuartic> kaChr: Shore
[05:06] <Dr_willis> shiznit,  that explains some of the differances in #'s ive seen then. :)
[05:06] <jrib> boubbin: have you done 'sudo a2enmod userdir'?
[05:06] <BobSapp> boubbin: if you link that in the mod-enabled directory it might enable users public_html directories
[05:06] <rukuartic> kaChr: have you checked the repositories first?
[05:06] <Ongaku> is there a way i can make my SigmaTel audio work on here? It doens't work at all...it goes to some Intel audio I have somehow lol
[05:07] <kaChr> the thing is its a box not a pc i have at home..
[05:07] <BobSapp> oh yeah do what jrib said
[05:07] <rukuartic> kaChr: You mean a server?
[05:07] <kaChr> yea
[05:07] <blahblahx> hey
[05:07] <rukuartic> kaChr: Bwahaha awesome. You can still use all the ubuntu apps from the commandline (little known fact)
[05:07] <Ongaku> this is my permanant desktop now....I don't even have Windows on here anymore
[05:07] <rukuartic> kaChr: apt-cache search <packagename>
[05:07] <kaChr> i used ubuntu truough the visual interface ... but when it comes to cmds..
[05:07] <rukuartic> kaChr: apt-get install <packagename>
[05:07] <blahblahx> im trying to make a mini cd based off ubuntu
[05:08] <myconid> Ongaku: pastebin your lspci
[05:08] <Ongaku> uhh?
[05:08] <blahblahx> are there any files i can remove
[05:08] <rukuartic> kaChr: Ok, do you know how to access the box via a commandline?
[05:08] <kaChr> ok lemme try it
[05:08] <Ongaku> im a newb myconid

[05:08] <myconid> Ongaku: drop to a console, type 'lspci', goto www.pastebin.com, paste it in.
[05:08] <Ongaku> ok
[05:08] <kaChr> yea trought putty
[05:08] <Roge> any known issues why cups web interface hangs when you try to add a printer
[05:08] <blahblahx> can i private chat with someone  knowledgable and ask them a bunch of questions
[05:08] <rukuartic> kaChr: Here, lets bounce out to /msg
[05:08] <jrib> !pm | blahblahx
[05:08] <ubotu> blahblahx: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[05:08] <monkeyspasm> what causes adevice to require fsck? duff HD or graceless shutdowns or something else?
[05:09] <blahblahx> yeah but i have to ask a series of questions
[05:09] <rukuartic> n/m you haven't regged
[05:09] <jgoguen> blahblahx: so ask them all one at a time
[05:09] <jrib> blahblahx: ask one at a time
[05:09] <myconid> Roge, tail -f -n 0 /var/log/* /var/log/*/*, then try to add a printer and see if you get any fun errors
[05:09] <blahblahx> okay so im trying to make an ubuntu mini cd
[05:09] <blahblahx> with gnome and openbox
[05:09] <blahblahx> ive removed a bunch of programs
[05:09] <Ongaku> ok now waht myconid
[05:09] <jrib> blahblahx: try to keep what you say on a single line, or else the channel becomes too busy
[05:09] <myconid> Ongaku, paste the url?
[05:09] <Ongaku> ok
[05:10] <myconid> nevermind i found it
[05:10] <Ongaku> http://pastebin.com/m7c400083
[05:10] <rukuartic> kaChr: Any luck?
[05:10] <Retroqqq> i only find out that my printer is not supported
[05:10] <peterretief> how can i tail -f dmesg
[05:10] <kaChr> workin on it
[05:10] <blahblahx> but it only took off about 80mb, and i want to get it down to 350mb or as close as possible
[05:10] <myconid> Ongaku, so does our Intel audio not work?
[05:10] <myconid> your*
[05:10] <Ongaku> it works...I have SigmaTel audio
[05:10] <blahblahx> so besides programs, are there any things i can remove safely
[05:10] <myconid> do you have working sound [y/n] 
[05:10] <Ongaku> yeah it works
[05:10] <myconid> Ongaku, then whats the issue?
[05:10] <Ongaku> but it sounds crappy
[05:11] <jgoguen> peterretief: use dmesg | tail -f -
[05:11] <blahblahx> (that doesn't need to be there)
[05:11] <murkyMurk> Ongaku: Sigmatel audio IS rubbish. I installed a cheap SBLive! to avoid using naff onboard sound. Cheap and works
[05:11] <Ongaku> lol
[05:11] <Ongaku> on a laptop
[05:11] <rukuartic> kaChr: kay... (ps: prepend my name (ruku<tab key>) so I see your things easier
[05:11] <silvertip257> I have a PCMCIA wireless card (model WPC11 v4) that worked fine with Edgy and now that I've cleanly installed Feisty, it does not work at all.  Please assist.
[05:11] <Ongaku> i know it's garbage...but it did sound better than this now
[05:11] <myconid> Ongaku, your motherboard probably has crappy AC97 audio.. and Linux is just picking up the driver for it.
[05:11] <peterretief> jgoguen: thanks
[05:11] <overridex> Dr_willis: yeah, and the psx32 emulator that works easily under 64-bit, doesn't support mortal kombat trilogy :|
[05:11] <myconid> Ongaku, what kinda laptop/model ?
[05:11] <Ongaku> Inspiron 1100
[05:11] <murkyMurk> Ongaku: ahhh, plug in some speakers
[05:11] <myconid> Ongaku, how is the sound 'crappy'?
[05:11] <boubbin> jrib Module userdir installed; run /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload to enable.
[05:11] <kaChr> i found the package .. how do i download it?
[05:11] <blahblahx> wait can someone answer my questions
[05:11] <Ongaku> old... lol
[05:12] <blahblahx> sorry for being impatient
[05:12] <Ongaku> low..crackles
[05:12] <rukuartic> silvertip257: >> I hate it when that happens... ...bounce back to edgy and find how it was working?
[05:12] <peterretief> jgoguen:  i had dmesg | tail -f
[05:12] <Ongaku> just sounds muffled to me...if i had an equalizer i could fix it probably
[05:12] <jrib> boubbin: did you do reload apache then?
[05:12] <boubbin> jrib working :P
[05:12] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  I wiped that install :(
[05:12] <Naas> i just got new second hard drive (IDE) in my pc, formatted with Gparted to ntfs but Ubuntu does not see it, nor in media or mnt, any ideas
[05:12] <boubbin> sorry i was reezed :/
[05:12] <jrib> peterretief: I would do:  watch 'dmesg | tail'
[05:12] <myconid> Ongaku, try googling for inspiron 1100, inspiron 1100 ubuntu, inspiron 1100 linux, inspiron 1100 sound linux
[05:12] <jgoguen> peterretief: ahh yes, that won't do much since tail doesn't know it should wait for more input
[05:12] <blahblahx> anyone?
[05:12] <rukuartic> silvertip257: You...should be able to drop in the liveCD and it'd work tho right?
[05:13] <Ongaku> yeah maybe someone else is out of date :P
[05:13] <Retroqqq> who is responsible for printers in ubuntu how may i contact him?
[05:13] <blahblahx> this is why i would like to PM
[05:13] <Ongaku> im getting a new compy soon though atleast hahah
[05:13] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  that might be ... not sure though...
[05:13] <blahblahx> because my questions are being washed out
[05:13] <rukuartic> silvertip257: try running it
[05:13] <jrib> blahblahx: you need to be patient
[05:13] <pigcum> if i want to reinstall ubuntu from a cdrom but i dont want to tweak my system over again. is there a way for me to save some file in the linux system that contains all the settings i have on the ubuntu i am on right now? so i can bring these settings over to the new ubuntu i want to install?
[05:13] <rukuartic> silvertip257: lsmod and build a list
[05:13] <silvertip257> yeah I will
[05:13] <silvertip257> ok
[05:13] <Dr_willis> patience is a virtue.
[05:13] <Ongaku> with a graphics card and everything....now lol ill be in here alot more
[05:13] <peterretief> but  dmesg | tail -f - ?
[05:13] <murkyMurk> Ongaku: what does it sound like with some speakers/headphones plugged in?
[05:13] <blahblahx> jrib: can you answer my question
[05:13] <rukuartic> silvertip257: And I'm sure you could hack it together wth ndiswraper
[05:13] <vsayikiran> i am really tired of asking this question, is there any way to view indic fonts
[05:13] <Naas> any ideas?
[05:13] <rukuartic> kaChr: sorry, missed your message
[05:13] <Ongaku> murkyMurk, sounds like shit on my good headphones
[05:13] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  I didnt need ndis before, I dont want it now :)
[05:14] <Ongaku> got these DJ ones...expensive
[05:14] <rukuartic> kaChr: say rukuartic before something, it makes it easier for me to see.
[05:14] <Mr_Siebel> I have a problem, can anyone help me out with audacity and Mixxx?
[05:14] <Semidios> Naas, pm me iI just went through this
[05:14] <Dr_willis> blahblahx,  wait a few min.. ask again..  while waiting, check the forums and wiki pages and google.. :) i dident even se eyour Q.
[05:14] <rukuartic> kaChr: to install it, do "apt-get install <package name>"
[05:14] <jrib> blahblahx: I don't know what you are asking because you split it over several lines.  When that happens, I just ignore it because it's impossible to understand
[05:14] <myconid> are they good headphones, or expensive headphones?
[05:14] <Ongaku> good
[05:14] <Ongaku> excellent headphones I would know I'm a musician
[05:14] <kaChr> yea its installin
[05:14] <rukuartic> kaChr: By the way... is this a graphical application?
[05:15] <kaChr> bittornado u mean?
[05:15] <rukuartic> kaChr: Because you might run into difficulties running it through SSH
[05:15] <Mr_Siebel> rukuartic: No its fairly dressed, no frontal nudity anyway...
[05:15] <Mr_Siebel> :-P
[05:15] <BobSapp> rtorrent ftw
[05:15] <murkyMurk> Ongaku: shut down everything else in the mixer...sounds like another channel is dumping crap on the master out
[05:15] <rukuartic> Mr_Siebel: Ha ha XD
[05:15] <runemaste644> i need to convert PNG to SVG
[05:15] <baabaablacksheep> i've problem logging into my wireless network. how i can set ubuntu up to do so?
[05:15] <myconid> runemaste644, gimp?
[05:15] <Ongaku> hnnn
[05:15] <Ongaku> hmm
[05:15] <peterretief> jrib: thanks - i didnt even know about watch :)
[05:15] <runemaste644> no
[05:15] <MenZa> !wireless | baabaablacksheep
[05:15] <kaChr> i already ran it trought ssh in past but that was like 2 years ago and i cant remember anyting
[05:15] <ubotu> baabaablacksheep: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:15] <rukuartic> kaChr: Ok yeah, you'll have a truckload of problems getting it to run graphically...
[05:15] <jgoguen> peterretief: the last - tells tail to listen on standard input until it closes, which it never does, so it will tail dmesg until you press Ctrl+C
[05:15] <runemaste644> gimp will not do SVG
[05:15] <blahblahx> so i want to make a ubuntu mini cd. ive already removed about half the apps, but that only took away about 80mb. my goal is 350mb (or something close to it) so I was wondering if there were any bits of ubuntu that i could remove safetly that would free up a bunch of space
[05:15] <myconid> !wireless | myconid
[05:15] <rukuartic> kaChr: You'll need to set up an x server on your computer
[05:15] <Mr_Siebel> !mixxx
[05:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mixxx - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:16] <Mr_Siebel> !Mixxx
[05:16] <peterretief> jgoguen: thanks - i see it works
[05:16] <rukuartic> kaChr: and then enable X forwarding on the box
[05:16] <baabaablacksheep> also, how do i update all my hardware?
[05:16] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  they put my wifi driver on the blacklist !!!  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=414594&highlight=wireless+wpc11
[05:16] <Ongaku> WOW
[05:16] <baabaablacksheep> i mean, download the drivers for the hardwares
[05:16] <rukuartic> silvertip257: Ah, well then /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
 then what would be a better choice for torrents
[05:16] <Ongaku> MUUUCH BETTER
[05:16] <runemaste644> There is some script to convert PNG to SVG
[05:16] <Naas> very quite crowd today!!!
[05:16] <rukuartic> kaChr: Yeah...
[05:17] <BobSapp> rukuartic: if you enable xforwarding for torrents wouldnt that be dificult?
[05:17] <runemaste644> but it looks too hard to set up right
[05:17] <blahblahx> so i want to make a ubuntu mini cd. ive already removed about half the apps, but that only took away about 80mb. my goal is 350mb (or something close to it) so I was wondering if there were any bits of ubuntu that i could remove safetly that would free up a bunch of spac
[05:17] <silvertip257> yep gonna modify /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist .. rukuartic ;)
[05:17] <Retroqqq> where can i get professional help?
[05:17] <Ongaku> thanks man it sounds a lot better...lol ima eventually buy a PC slot sound card for this thing...
[05:17] <rukuartic> BobSapp: He's got a windows box and a linux box, and he's looking to run a torrent on it
[05:17] <rukuartic> silvertip257: There ya go :D
[05:17] <silvertip257> heh
[05:17] <Mr_Siebel> When I open mixxx and audacity and start to lay down some music my audacity shuts down without notice anyone else have this problem of sorts?
[05:17] <myconid> Ongaku, you muted some things?
[05:17] <rukuartic> Retroqqq: By professional, do you mean paid?
[05:17] <Ongaku> ya, myconid
[05:17] <myconid> Nice!
[05:17] <jrib> !support > Retroqqq (read the private message from ubotu)
[05:17] <kaChr> i got an error during the installation
[05:17] <Ongaku> wow figured it wouldn't make such a change
[05:17] <BobSapp> rukuartic: i was thinking about if he gets disconnected from the linux box, wouldn that kill the X app?
[05:18] <rukuartic> kaChr: what was it?
[05:18] <jrib> blahblahx: I would start with a minimal set of packages and then add what you want, instead of doing it the other way
[05:18] <jrib> !minimal > blahblahx (read the private message from ubotu)
[05:18] <rukuartic> BobSapp: yeah... rtorrent + screen = love
[05:18] <Ongaku> lol i will get a PC slot sound card...they got a nice soundblaster
[05:18] <Retroqqq> no iam not paying anything for this!
[05:18] <rukuartic> Retroqqq: Oh
[05:18] <kaChr> Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/f/freetype/libfreety                    pe6_2.1.10-1ubuntu2.2_i386.deb  404 Not Found
[05:18] <rukuartic> Retroqqq: Well then right here :)
[05:18] <blahblahx> well i have to work the other way
[05:18] <rukuartic> kaChr: Woah
[05:18] <blahblahx> i don't have a choice
[05:18] <rukuartic> kaChr: Thats not good
[05:18] <Ongaku> thx guys :) now i can rock :P
[05:18] <kaChr> oh no
[05:18] <jrib> !who | blahblahx
[05:18] <ubotu> blahblahx: 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 :)
[05:18] <shiznit> momal, here it goes
[05:18] <rukuartic> kaChr: Ok, look... you're going to have an issue running a graphical app through ssh.
[05:18] <jrib> blahblahx: why don't you have that choice?
[05:19] <silvertip257> hell yes rukuartic !!!!
[05:19] <momal> shiznit: good luck xD
[05:19] <rukuartic> silvertip257: :D It works?
[05:19] <BobSapp> personally right now im instaling cywgin on my vista laptop so i can remote X
[05:19] <murkyMurk> so waht was Ongaku's solution?
[05:19] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  its in my list now - gonna test it
[05:19] <blahblahx> jrib: because im working from a ubuntu variant called mint that doesn't have a minimal install option
[05:19] <kaChr> rukuartic: so what would u recommend then
[05:19] <usser> hello
[05:19] <kaChr> rtorrent?
[05:19] <rukuartic> kaChr: Ok, rtorrent is a console app
[05:19] <rukuartic> kaChr: Its a tad difficult to use
[05:19] <rukuartic> kaChr: But the benefit is this
[05:19] <rukuartic> kaChr: If you leave the 'box' on all day, rtorrent will stay open too
[05:20] <SpudDogg> Does anyone here know if it's possible to get the recorded music off of a Samsung Nexus XM reciever in Ubuntu?
[05:20] <BobSapp> once you get a cool rtorrent config file rtorrent is easy
[05:20] <kaChr> good so lets try it
[05:20] <rukuartic> kaChr: whereas if you leave with the graphical client, you have to have two computers on
[05:20] <usser> is there any way to display a full path in ls, like i want to do ls /data/whatever and it will return me the contents of this dir prefixed by /data/whatever ??
[05:20] <rukuartic> kaChr: apt-get install rtorrent screen
[05:20] <rukuartic> kaChr: (screen is another application that's awesome)
[05:20] <kaChr> ok
[05:20] <jrib> blahblahx: I assume linux mint is different in some way than ubuntu, so it's probably a better idea to ask what apps you can remove from linux mint in the linux mint channel
[05:20] <BobSapp> i just start it up, and download a torrent file to my torrents directory, rtorrent downloads them automatically and puts them in my downloads directory
[05:21] <shiznit> momal, it downloaded a bunch of stuff but thats it
[05:21] <BobSapp> when i want to stop a torrent i just more the file out of the torrents directory
[05:21] <whiskeytango> but deluge is a lot more customizable :D
[05:21] <BobSapp> agreed
[05:21] <BobSapp> but deluge is perl isnt it?
[05:21] <Naas> any help?
[05:21] <BobSapp> i think its interpreted
[05:21] <whiskeytango> im using deluge right now..
[05:21] <rukuartic> kaChr: Lemme know once they're installed
[05:21] <Semidios> Naas, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131&highlight=volume+UID
[05:21] <jrib> !please > Naas (read the private message from ubotu)
[05:21] <momal> DevideZero: If you install easytag which is in the ubuntu repos you can convert all your mp3s tag encodings at the same time. You will need to go into the prefrences and change the default encoding which it reads with then have it re-encode the files. I recommend that you back up some of your mp3's and test it on a few then if it works procede over your whole collection.
[05:21] <kaChr> its done
[05:22] <pigcum> in what file is all the gnome settings being saved that i have doon to my GUI? i want to save the file and put it on the other linux computer so i dont have to tweak it over again
[05:22] <momal> shiznit: reboot it and see if it worked xD
[05:22] <BobSapp> my computer cant handle deluge running in background
[05:22] <jrib> !ntfs > Naas (read the private message from ubotu)
[05:22] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  no luck yt
[05:22] <rukuartic> silvertip257: :(
[05:22] <rukuartic> silvertip257: Ok
[05:22] <silvertip257> yeah
[05:22] <whiskeytango> wow.
[05:22] <shiznit> momal, i installed the .deb file, i think i have to run the script now
[05:22] <usser> is there any way to display a full path in ls, like i want to do ls /data/whatever and it will return me the contents of this dir prefixed by /data/whatever ??
[05:22] <whiskeytango> mine cant handle steam running at all :(
[05:22] <rukuartic> silvertip257: did you insmod the mod?
[05:22] <kaChr> rukuartic: its done
[05:22] <momal> shiznit: yup ^_^
[05:22] <jrib> pigcum: most stuff is probably in ~/.gconf* ~/.gnome*
[05:22] <shiznit> momal, how?
[05:22] <BobSapp> usser: i normally just use find /data/whatever
[05:22] <rukuartic> silvertip257: just because you removed the entry in blacklist doesn't mean its going to still be there
[05:22] <pigcum> jrib thanks.
[05:22] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  no - I just unplugged the card ... ok
[05:23] <kevinO> is there an audio app that can record what im hearing in my speakers?
[05:23] <whiskeytango> Bob, im just waiting for 7.10 to come out, its a lot smoother for the newer video cards, from my understanding.
[05:23] <usser> BobSapp: thanks a bunch that was exactly it ))
[05:23] <rukuartic> I'm downloading the server beta now :D
[05:23] <kaChr> rukuartic: its done installing
[05:23] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  so "insmod r818x" ?
[05:23] <idefix_> what file do you have to delete when gaim pounces starts malfunctioning?
[05:23] <rukuartic> kaChr: Great ok
[05:23] <rukuartic> silvertip257: Should be... try "depmod -a r818x" before you do "insmod r818x"
[05:23] <silvertip257> ok
[05:23] <rukuartic> silvertip257: checks dependencies I think
[05:24] <rukuartic> kaChr: ok
[05:24] <rukuartic> kaChr: type "screen" into the console
[05:24] <momal> shiznits: try envy in a console or in run box
[05:24] <jrib> idefix_: did you try what I suggested?
[05:24] <erUSUL> !envy
[05:24] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[05:24] <shiznit> momal, how do i know what the script its?
[05:24] <Roge> do i need cups to share a printer or will samba do it on its own ?
[05:24] <kaChr> rukuartic: so lets start at downloading a torrent from a website and running it
[05:24] <imperfect-> I need a gkrellm alternative
[05:24] <imperfect-> cuz I dont like it anymore ;)
[05:24] <vishalrao> hello! is there a place to submit suggestions/feedback/wishlist for gutsy? or is that the same place as launchpad/bugs site?
[05:25] <rukuartic> kaChr: Right then
[05:25] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  insmod:  can't read 'r818x':  No such file or directory
[05:25] <rukuartic> kaChr: I'm not TOO experienced with rtorrent but I can help
[05:25] <erUSUL> Roge: you need cups (but you can share a printer without samba using IPP)
[05:25] <rukuartic> kaChr: Did you type "screen" (once)?
[05:25] <jrib> pigcum: private message please?
[05:25] <kaChr> yes
[05:25] <kaChr> then pressed space
[05:25] <Roge> ahh ok
[05:25] <rukuartic> kaChr: ok before we get into rtorrent, lemme explain screen
[05:25] <momal> lol at that
[05:25] <momal> hmm
[05:25] <murkyMurk> Roge either. You need a cups server to share a printer but Samaba makes it easier in a windows environment
[05:25] <rukuartic> kaChr: screen lets you "alt-tab" between console windows
[05:25] <idefix_> jrib, sorry I cannot scroll back enough :(
[05:26] <jrib> idefix_: ~/.gaim/pounces.xml
[05:26] <Dr_willis> vishalrao,  given how gutsy is being  cleaned up. its a bit late for that. :) perhaps for the next release.
[05:26] <rukuartic> kaChr: for example, open up "nano" real quick and type in something... then create a new window "ctrl+c"
[05:26] <Roge> so i can use samba without cups murkyMurk  ?
[05:26] <idefix_> yes I deleted that one
[05:26] <kaChr> rukuartic: ok masta
[05:26] <rukuartic> kaChr: you can bounce back and forth by pressing "Ctrl+a", and then pressing 'p'
[05:26] <idefix_> jrib allthough the malfunctioning wasn't in it..
[05:26] <b3nne> Does anyone know how to get the a graficcard (p4m900) to work properly?
[05:26] <momal> shiznit: try running "envy" from a terminal/console
[05:26] <vishalrao> Dr_willis: its minor stuff, like suggesting grub have a default splashimage, and include a torrent client and disc burner program in the default install too?
[05:27] <murkyMurk> Roge: no. Samba will only share WORKING printers and Cups is the default Ubuntu printer app
[05:27] <Roge> ahh
[05:27] <rukuartic> vishalrao: It has a torrent client installed, if I'm correct
[05:27] <whiskeytango> aye
[05:27] <kaChr> rukuartic: whats next
[05:27] <rukuartic> vishalrao: its pretty minimalist
[05:27] <attunix> Where can I download the new "Elephant" wallpaper available in Gutsy? I'm on Feisty.
[05:27] <Roge> the web interface keeps locking up for me
[05:27] <Dr_willis> vishalrao,  i imagine they got reasons for not doing that stuff. :)
[05:27] <shiznit> momal, $$
[05:27] <momal> shiznit: or it might have gone into the menu
[05:27] <vishalrao> rukuartic: its a basic, right minimal :)
[05:27] <rukuartic> kaChr: Did you get the handle of alt-tabbing in screen?
[05:27] <baabaablacksheep> how can i uninstall those stuff i don't need from ubuntu?
[05:27] <vishalrao> cool Dr_willis, understood :)
[05:27] <Dr_willis> i perfer grub to not have a splash..  of course I also tweak grub on the first boot .
[05:27] <murkyMurk> Roge: cups or samba?
[05:28] <kaChr> rukuartic: yea
[05:28] <RAdams> how big is a typical /var ?
[05:28] <Roge> cups
[05:28] <rukuartic> Dr_willis: what do you tweak?
[05:28] <vishalrao> i must say gutsy is looking real nice and im looking forward to the final release !
[05:28] <rukuartic> kaChr: Ok, last thing and then we'll move on to getting rtorrent working
[05:28] <baabaablacksheep> things like accessibility, remote desktop etc
[05:28] <kaChr> yyea
[05:28] <Roge> i click something and it gives me a https link and says i need to use that link and when i click it it locks
[05:28] <shiznit> momal, its getting so much stuff lol
[05:28] <rukuartic> kaChr: now the real cool thing is you can close the window, log out, and come back to it again
[05:28] <rukuartic> kaChr: press "ctrl+a" and then "d" to detatch
[05:28] <erUSUL> Roge: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[05:28] <attunix> Where can I download the new "Elephant" wallpaper available in Gutsy? I'm on Feisty.
[05:28] <rukuartic> kaChr: then type "screen -r" to re-grab your screen
[05:28] <kaChr> rukuartic: thats coool
[05:28] <Dr_willis> rukuartic,  uncomment the windows example. so windows is first. to make setting the default easier.. remove the hidden menu option, enable color in the menus, set time out to be 30 sec. disable framebuffer, splash, and the quiet option....
[05:28] <murkyMurk> Roge: yeah, can be a pig sometimes. Usually a permission error.
[05:28] <kaChr> ok
[05:28] <trimmer> What is this update up here glaring at me?
[05:29] <baabaablacksheep> and also make ubuntu update my latest hardwares
[05:29] <momal> shiznit: haha lets hope it doesn't blow up
[05:29] <Dr_willis> rukuartic,  disable the memtest, set the # of kernels shown to 4, lets see.. what else..
[05:29] <RAdams> attunix: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/GutsyIdeas
[05:29] <Dr_willis> :)
[05:29] <Dr_willis> takes me all of 20 sec..
[05:29] <attunix> RAdams: without the logo? :)
[05:29] <rukuartic> Dr_willis: oh grub master...
[05:29] <shiznit> momal, i didnt even have half of this stuff before
[05:29] <Dr_willis> rukuartic,  oh.. and add a GeeXbox entry for GeexBox on my first hard  partition. for video fun.
[05:29] <rukuartic> kaChr: Right now go find a torrent, and copy the url
[05:29] <momal> shiznit: what stuff is it getting ? just throw a few names over here :P
[05:30] <kaChr> ok
[05:30] <rukuartic> kaChr: while you're at it, lets log out of that screen session
[05:30] <b3nne> Does anyone know how to fix a graficdriver properly to a P4M900 chipset?
[05:30] <trimmer> hmmm..... newer safer openssl...
[05:30] <rukuartic> kaChr: close nano (ctrl+x) and logout of both terminals (ctrl+d or 'logout')
[05:30] <Naas> !share
[05:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about share - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:30] <shiznit> momal, lib sutff
[05:30] <Naas> share!
[05:30] <kaChr> rukuartic: ok i quit the screen and got the url
[05:31] <rukuartic> kaChr: then type "wget <url to torrent here>"
[05:31] <kaChr> ok
[05:31] <rukuartic> kaChr: wget is a sweet little program to download things given a URL
[05:31] <Naas> any information about sharing a drive/folder over the network!
[05:31] <momal> shiznit: it might just be getting stuff for the compiling and that... you might have had the stuff before already :p
[05:31] <Naas> how do i share a folder
[05:31] <shiznit> momal, "there was an error in the process, you can see the log.....
[05:31] <rukuartic> !samba | Naas
[05:31] <ubotu> Naas: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:31] <Dr_willis> Naas,  you mean share with a windows machien correct?
[05:31] <kaChr> rukuartic: yea i know, i got the torrent how do i run it
[05:31] <Naas> yes
[05:32] <rukuartic> kaChr: type screen again (so we don't have to restart)
[05:32] <Naas> Dr_willis
[05:32] <kaChr> ok
[05:32] <rukuartic> kaChr: and then type 'rtorrent <name of file>'
[05:32] <Naas> Rukuartic: Samba is already built-in, or am i wrong
[05:32] <shiznit> momal, could you check the error log?
[05:32] <rukuartic> kaChr: protip: if you hit the tab key, it'll finish typing the name
[05:32] <rukuartic> Naas: You're right.
[05:32] <Roge> wow
[05:32] <rukuartic> Naas: But I have no experience running Samba
[05:33] <momal> shiznit: if you can find where it put the error log lol
[05:33] <shiznit> momal, wtf is still asked me to cofigure x and restart
[05:33] <baabaablacksheep> anyone, i've a ibm x31 laptop, how do i enable the middle button? it's now acting as a left click.
[05:33] <momal> LOL
[05:33] <shiznit> momal, yea i found it but it rebooted me lol
[05:33] <Roge> i done a lamp install of ubuntu server and showhow, during my adding and removing the web and database server got removed
[05:33] <cdm10> I've got two volume controls here, Master and Headphone, and I don't remember how to combine them both into Master. I remember that the command had to do with modprobe and ac97, but that's it.
[05:33] <momal> lets see if it boots lol
[05:33] <jrib> !guidelines > pigcum (read the private message from ubotu)
[05:33] <oxeimo2> why can't I use applications with a GUI on the computer I'm ssh'ing to?
[05:33] <rukuartic> shiznit: No idea. Try googling "linux ibm x31 laptop mouse" or something, chances are some person with the same laptop as you had the same problem and posted the answer on the itnernet
[05:33] <shiznit> $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$444
[05:34] <rukuartic> shiznit: wrong user sorry
[05:34] <shiznit> NVIDIA LOGO
[05:34] <Roge> is there a package name to get lamp back ?
[05:34] <attunix> oxeimo2: you can
[05:34] <Naas> Dr_willis= any ideas about sharing files with windows
[05:34] <rukuartic> baabaablacksheep: No idea. Try googling "linux ibm x31 laptop mouse" or something, chances are some person with the same laptop as you had the same problem and posted the answer on the itnernet
[05:34] <kaChr> rukuartic: shit its tells me that the passkey of the torrent is wrong.. i think i might have to download it to my pc then upload it to the box
[05:34] <rukuartic> kaChr: Works?
[05:34] <erUSUL> !caps | shiznit
[05:34] <ubotu> shiznit: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[05:34] <shiznit> i sorry
[05:34] <shiznit> so happy
[05:34] <Dr_willis> Naas,  i am fully versed and read on using samba. :) thers whole books on the topic.
[05:34] <rukuartic> shiznit: haha
[05:34] <oxeimo2> attunix: how?
[05:34] <attunix> oxeimo2: Instead of ssh through command line, go to Places>Connect to Server :)
[05:34] <oxeimo2> for example, when I type in matlab, it says: "Warning: Unable to open display, MATLAB is starting without a display"...
[05:35] <momal> lol erUSUL caps your name... but i think caps were necassary since its been like 5 hours and finally he got the nvidia logo lol
[05:35] <Dr_willis> Naas,  install the samba package,   install the samba-doc, and read the html books included. thers also a lot of samba config tools out. But  i never use them.. since i read the books. :)
[05:35] <rukuartic> oxeimo2: try "ssh -X user@host"
[05:35] <rukuartic> oxeimo2: If you're runing linux in both locations
[05:35] <Dr_willis> Naas,  i though gnome had a 'share folder' featre that also enabled the samba stuff for you nice and simple.
[05:35] <Ashfire908> how do you show the main window in amarok
[05:35] <shiznit> momal, ty very much sir
[05:35] <shiznit> you still wanna see that log
[05:35] <Dr_willis> Naas,  for simple transfers o tend to use 'ssh' on linxu and 'winscp' on the windows box.
[05:35] <oxeimo2> oh wow that worked
[05:35] <oxeimo2> thanks
[05:35] <oxeimo2> :-D
[05:36] <idefix_> is there a clean up harddisk function in gaim? I mean.. a lot is logged which could very well be outdated already..
[05:36] <rukuartic> kaChr: Works?
[05:36] <momal> yeah upload it just so i can see if its bad error or not :p
[05:36] <rukuartic> kaChr: Whoop my problem
[05:36] <idefix_> I mean in linux
[05:36] <Naas> ok
[05:36] <rukuartic> kaChr: passkey? o-o
[05:36] <myconid> idefix_, rm works well for me
[05:36] <rukuartic> kaChr: Yeah, sometimes wget is funny
[05:36] <erUSUL> idefix_: npe; do it manually
[05:36] <rukuartic> kaChr: Like when you have a website that goes http://website/file.gz, but it really points you to a webpage which points you to the file
[05:36] <kaChr> yea ill try to download it to my pc then up it to the box
[05:37] <rukuartic> kaChr: protip #2 if a website does that, try "w3m <url to website>"
[05:37] <rukuartic> kaChr: w3m = text only version of firefox
[05:37] <kaChr> ok ill try it
[05:37] <baabaablacksheep> how do i open a terminal screen?
[05:37] <erUSUL> !cli | baabaablacksheep
[05:37] <ubotu> baabaablacksheep: 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
[05:38] <rukuartic> kaChr: Check the last thing from ubotu
[05:38] <rukuartic> kaChr: Might help you out
[05:38] <rukuartic> kaChr: btw you might need to install w3m too "apt-get install ..."
[05:38] <baabaablacksheep> is there any shortcuts?
[05:38] <Tomasu> does anyone know why upstart might be refusing connections from initctl and shutdown?
[05:38] <kaChr> yea im installing it now
[05:39] <b3nne> Can someone help me? I need to get the graficdriver for P4M900 to work and google doesn't know the answer :'(
[05:39] <rukuartic> baabaablacksheep: Shore, System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts (ctrl+alt+w works great fer me :D)

[05:40] <rukuartic> baabaablacksheep: You can also "/msg ubotu cli" and it will help you out without spamming the room
[05:40] <RAdams> what's the typical size of a /tmp directory when the system is under heavy use a multimedia desktop?
[05:40] <rukuartic> RAdams: Thats a good question o_O
[05:40] <shiznit> now i need to figure out dual monitor
[05:41] <Veggie> You still here shiznit? Haha.
[05:41] <rukuartic> RAdams: Right now /tmp's only occupying 1 MB in my system... gimme a secon
[05:41] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: ?.. damn, you're still at it?
[05:41] <shiznit> indy, i got the nvidia driver running
[05:41] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  no luck ... dunno what to do now - I'm even referring to ubuntuforum posts
[05:41] <Veggie> And hey Indy.
[05:41] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: ok... open a terminal, and run sudo nvidia-settings to setup dual screens
[05:41] <rukuartic> RAdams: Its 167 on my web host
[05:41] <IndyGunFreak> Veggie: lol
[05:42] <RAdams> rukuartic: thanks, that's a good benchmark
[05:42] <kaChr> rukuartic: how do i close the torrent? bcuz i have to re run it
[05:42] <b3nne> please someone help me to get my graphic card to work
[05:42] <momal> after all that time... he ended up reinstalling ubuntu and using envy scripts lol
[05:42] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: if it makes you feel better, i jogged 5mi and biked 5mi since i left, so you've ben at this a while..lol
[05:42] <murkyMurk> RAdams: /tmp is 148k here
[05:42] <ubuntuuser123> i have a problem with GParted
[05:42] <ubuntuuser123> i can't move partitions
[05:42] <shiznit> well at least I'm in now
[05:42] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntuuser123: we aren't mind readers
[05:42] <rukuartic> kaChr: ctrl+c I think
[05:42] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: indeed....
[05:42] <rukuartic> RAdams: gimme one more second, IK'm gonna check university too
[05:42] <Veggie> ubuntuuser123, you probably won't be able to. What are you trying to do?
[05:43] <baabaablacksheep> !partition
[05:43] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[05:43] <RAdams> rukuartic: ty
[05:43] <IndyGunFreak> Veggie: lmao
[05:43] <Ashfire908> !amarok
[05:43] <ubotu> Amarok is an audio player for Linux with an intuitive interface. The latest version is 1.4.3 for Dapper and 1.4.5 for Edgy and packages are  available for Kubuntu at www.kubuntu.org See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Amarok
[05:43] <rukuartic> RAdams: University's taking 40 MB. but keep in mind these aren't media servers
[05:43] <kaChr> rukuartic: ctrl + c doesnt work
[05:43] <rukuartic> kaChr: Hum...
[05:43] <IndyGunFreak> I downlloaded a free partition tool the other day, called PartedMagic, i like it better than Gparted, and it still formats in every filesystem I know of.
[05:43] <RAdams> rukuartic: I'll be doing video editing, so I'm giving it an ungodly 10 GB to cache lengthy hd video files D:
[05:43] <rukuartic> kaChr: q?
[05:44] <ubuntuuser123> Veggie: i'm trying to move a partition to a different location.it is currently in between two pieces of empty space
[05:44] <rukuartic> RAdams: Haha
[05:44] <baabaablacksheep> how do i look at the file structure of ubuntu? i'm trying to get an idea of where are my folders located
[05:44] <rukuartic> RAdams: Ok You might want to consider swap too
[05:44] <dennis__> i want to buy a new computer and i am not sure which graphiccard is best for linux, ati or linux ?
[05:44] <shiznit> indy, this nvidia cp is nice
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: yup....
[05:44] <dennis__> h nvidea..
[05:44] <RAdams> rukuartic: if that isn't enough, I'm going back to beta tapes. my swap will be 4 gb
[05:44] <rukuartic> dennis__: Its pick and choose
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: dual monitors is awesome, i love it.
[05:44] <kaChr> q doesnt work either
[05:44] <rukuartic> dennis__: Intel does a pretty good job IMO
[05:44] <grayhane> when trying to mount an Ipod, I get the following error mount_point cannot contain the following characters:
[05:44] <grayhane> newline, G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually/)
[05:44] <Ashex> how do I add a command to execute as root on startup without prompting for password?
[05:44] <shiznit> lemme plug the crt back in
[05:44] <rukuartic> Ashex: look in /etc/sudoers
[05:44] <rukuartic> Ashex: You're looking for "nopasswd:"
[05:45] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: the key thing is, especially if you're making system changes, is to run it with terminal and sudo, because it won't save changes if you don't.
[05:45] <rukuartic> zeff: Ask away :)
[05:45] <zeff> private or here?
[05:45] <shiznit> ok
[05:45] <rukuartic> right here
[05:45] <RAdams> ashex: I would also consider using apparmor or SELinux if you're doing that sort of thing :)
[05:45] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: i think you're gonna have to restart, because xorg gets modified.
[05:45] <rukuartic> Ashex: Or if you want to run it on boot isntead of login look in /etc/rc.local
[05:45] <dennis__> rukuartic: intel onboard graphic?
[05:45] <rukuartic> dennis__: You'll have to look around :P I'm using an intel right now, no problems.
[05:45] <Ashex> hmm, okay
[05:45] <Ashex> I just want to have tpm run on startup
[05:46] <zeff> ok, i just installed 7.04, straight away its like every time i log in one time everythings ok, 2nd boot no network...same all it just wont work
[05:46] <shiznit> i did
[05:46] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: ok.
[05:46] <Ashex> it requires access to nvram so it needs root privelages
[05:46] <shiznit> indy, can i run custom refresh rates
[05:46] <redheat> hi everyone
[05:46] <rukuartic> dennis__: Configured propperly on install and whatnot
[05:46] <redheat> just a quicky question
[05:46] <rukuartic> zeff: Networking's been shakey in my distro too, are you talking about wireless?
[05:46] <dennis__> k, thx

[05:47] <RAdams> >.>
[05:47] <redheat> sorry about that
[05:47] <RAdams> !info gusty | redheat

[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> !compiz | touch`

[05:49] <touch`> IndyGunFreak:  thanks
[05:49] <zeff> is this common?cause if i gotta try many different approaches dont waste your time cause i wont do it now...
[05:49] <rukuartic> RAdams: So its a tad disproportionaite
[05:49] <RAdams> rukartic: thanks :)
[05:49] <rukuartic> zeff: Man, I hate little problems like that
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> zeff: what problem are you having?
[05:50] <rukuartic> zeff: I suck at configuring Xorg and what not... but that is a weird random problem
[05:50] <rukuartic> RAdams: N/p
[05:50] <zeff> so u have no idea?
[05:50] <rukuartic> zeff: Sorry, no :(
[05:50] <RAdams> I'm making my /home reiser4, because I'm insane.
[05:50] <zeff> thanx anyway man
[05:50] <rukuartic> RAdams: Yeah you are insane
[05:50] <rukuartic> RAdams: Can't you lose it if you crash?
[05:50] <zeff> anyway this is the place for all question right?
[05:50] <IndyGunFreak> RAdams: ext3 is lovely
[05:50] <rukuartic> zeff: Yup :)
[05:50] <zeff> ok, thanx cya
[05:51] <danderson> is there a way to get an ubuntu installer without the livecd part?
[05:51] <shiznit> how do i change the refresh rate?
[05:51] <danderson> It's nice and all, but it's really, really painful when installing in a virtual machine
[05:51] <erUSUL> !alternate | danderson
[05:51] <Veggie> danderson: Alternate CD install, should be on the same web page you got the normal live cd from
[05:51] <ubotu> danderson: 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
[05:51] <IndyGunFreak> danderson: you can download the alternate install CD
[05:51] <riddlebox> danderson, I think there is an alternative cd you can download
[05:51] <baabaablacksheep> how do i get ubuntu to auto detect my hardwares?
[05:51] <RAdams> rukartic, IndyGunFreak: you have 30 seconds to convince me that I'll be fine with a noat ext3 /home... I'm in gparted right now setting up a fresh install via LiveCD :) (remember this is a multimedia editing desktop)
[05:51] <baabaablacksheep> it's not detecting my wireless lan
[05:51] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  LUCK!  haha ... turns out after unblacklisting it, adding the module to /etc/modules and modprobing it, I needed to put an 'x' directly after my SSID name.
[05:51] <erUSUL> !wifi | baabaablacksheep
[05:51] <danderson> aha, cheers.
[05:51] <ubotu> baabaablacksheep: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:52] <Rainarrow> Hello guys, how do I share files between two Ubuntu box? I have a LAN up already
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> RAdams: sorry, i offer no convincing argument, i just really like ext3..lol
[05:52] <RAdams> lol
[05:52] <silvertip257> rukuartic:  so now my WPC11 v4 wifi 802.11b card works!!! ;)
[05:52] <kujo> I've been searching all day today. Is it possible to install linux to my external HDD, leaving my internal one alone?
[05:52] <Rainarrow> I know I could share files with a Windows box with Samba
[05:52] <baabaablacksheep> it's too cryptic.
[05:52] <pipegeek> Hmm... I'm trying to configure a pptp connection in network-manager-gnome.... I only want it to handle connections to a certain block of IP addresses, but when I tell it to do as much, it ends up being that those are the only connections that succeed and everything else is dropped.  WRYYYY?
[05:52] <whiskeytango> Kujo, how is it connected?
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> kujo: its difficult sometimes, but it can be done..
[05:52] <pipegeek> using feisty, btw
[05:52] <kujo> through a usb port
[05:52] <whiskeytango> Ah...
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> kujo: its also generally quite slow.
[05:53] <kujo> i see
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> kujo: is your pc capable of booting a USB device?
[05:53] <kujo> i was reading that something called sata is faster
[05:53] <kujo> IndyGuyFreak: yes
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> kujo: sata is an internal drive....
[05:53] <whiskeytango> Well fiesty wanted me to install to my 8gig thumb drive.. so i guess it is possible, but i would assume quite slow.
[05:53] <volantares> hi
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> kujo: and depending on the age of the drive, you may not have sata ports on your motherboard.
[05:53] <whiskeytango> Hello.
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> whiskeytango: ya, i takled a guy through it one time, he said it was pretty slow.
[05:53] <erUSUL> IndyGunFreak: there's somethink called eSATA ...
[05:54] <Rainarrow> Hey guys?
[05:54] <kujo> that's a good point
[05:54] <Veggie> Hey Rainarrow
[05:54] <IndyGunFreak> erUSUL: hmm, i seem to recall that, but isn't that basically enhanced sata?
[05:54] <baabaablacksheep> one thing, how do i know if my wlan is already installed?
[05:54] <Rainarrow> Hi Veggie
[05:54] <kujo> My computer is relatively new. I think it came out within the last two years.
[05:54] <Rainarrow> Veggie, I am asking about how to share files between 2 ubuntu box
[05:54] <Veggie> !samba | Rainarrow
[05:54] <ubotu> Rainarrow: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:54] <IndyGunFreak> kujo: you *might* haev sata ports on your motherboards... thats right about the time sata started getting more traction
[05:55] <IndyGunFreak> Rainarrow: have you considered email?
[05:55] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[05:55] <Veggie> Indy: I'd be suprised if he's on a modern computer, and doesn;t have sata ports
[05:55] <kujo> oh, I didn't know that. Thank you for telling me.
[05:55] <IndyGunFreak> external usb drive maybe?
[05:55] <IndyGunFreak> Veggie: certainly possible.. my PC is 2.5yrs old, and i don't have sata ports, but i built mine.
[05:55] <Rainarrow> ah, I means, did samba also works between 2 linux boxes? I know I could share files between a Linux box and a Windows one using samba
[05:55] <buzz-cp> Can anyone tell me why my laptop says its on battery power with the power plugged in, but the icon goes away (GNOME) when I unplug it (as if it thinks it's on AC power).  i.e. it's backwards
[05:56] <erUSUL> IndyGunFreak: exterior SATA (just put a sata port exterior to the box and use the supposed hotplug capabilities of the sata standar)
[05:56] <whiskeytango> I wish ubuntu had readyboost.
[05:56] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, erUSUL bnever heard of that.
[05:56] <murkyMurk> Rainarrow: yes Samba operates between linux as well
[05:56] <Veggie> I meant > 1 year old, really.
[05:56] <Rainarrow> OK, thanks
[05:56] <IndyGunFreak> Veggie: he said his PC was 2yrs old, unless i misunderstood... oh well, he's gone now...lol
[05:56] <Veggie> gnome power management is buggy, iirc. Being fixed in Gutsy.
[05:57] <unimatrix9> hello all
[05:57] <erUSUL> IndyGunFreak: my mobo has two eSATA ports so belive me ;) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_ATA#External_SATA
[05:57] <IndyGunFreak> erUSUL: i do, i do..lol
[05:57] <buzz-cp> Veggie: are you saying, not much I can do ATM?
[05:58] <unimatrix9> i am trying to watch ubuntu screen casts , with feisty , its in theora ogg format ( video ) but i cant open the file , any tips are welcome
[05:58] <Veggie> Gutsy comes out in a week or two, and it's not that much of a problem, is it?
[05:58] <unimatrix9> i do have all the codecs
[05:58] <Rainarrow> Another question, just to be curious, what is the numbers before every line of message showed during startup?
[05:58] <NIKOLCE> Pr|nc3Ss``
[05:58] <Rainarrow> I know it should be some kind of timing
[05:58] <erUSUL> Rainarrow: time in seconds from boot
[05:59] <Rainarrow> erUSUL, is it really in seconds?
[05:59] <erUSUL> Rainarrow: afaics yes
[05:59] <buzz-cp> Veggie: doesn't appear to be--this is a new thing.  Is gutsy the latest distro?  I won't be installing that, will I?  i.e. I have Dapper Drake and just run the updater when it says to update.
[05:59] <ZaPaLeNa> hi
[05:59] <Rainarrow> erUSUL, sometimes I get something like [33.125000]  followed by [2.175000] 
[05:59] <erUSUL> Rainarrow: your are refering to the msgs you can inspect with dmesg ?
[06:00] <Rainarrow> erUSUL, yes, they also show up while booting without the quite option
[06:00] <erUSUL> Rainarrow: mines are secuential and i do know for sure that they are timestamps
[06:00] <Veggie> Gutsy is coming out on the 8th (?) I think. Currently, ubuntu is on 7.04, with Gutsy being 7.10. Drake is... 6.10, isn't it?
[06:00] <buzz-cp> ps - does anyone know how to get rid of these room chat announcements in GAIM (i.e. XYZ entered the room.)
[06:00] <unimatrix9> i found the curse...
[06:01] <buzz-cp> yea I was unsuccessful in installing er post-drake
[06:01] <erUSUL> Rainarrow: i compile my own kernels and there is a config option to turn them on/off
[06:01] <unimatrix9> it cant rescale 1248 into an 1024 scale
[06:01] <Veggie> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[06:01] <wilhart> where do i see last upgraded programs/updates from 2 days ago
[06:01] <unimatrix9> hehe
[06:01] <IndyGunFreak> Veggie: drake was 6.06, Edgy was 6.10
[06:01] <buzz-cp> is that a joke or really what you do?
[06:01] <Rainarrow> erUSUL, ok thanks, in fact it's booting with a LiveCD when I noticed they are not constantly increasing
[06:01] <Veggie> Indy: Thanks =P
[06:01] <IndyGunFreak> and i think its the 18th, but i could be wrong
[06:01] <b3nne> "Which version driver you want to release (x86) ? " - How do I find which version?
[06:02] <Rainarrow> erUSUL, however when booting from HDD it's sequential
[06:02] <erUSUL> Rainarrow: dunno what can couse this behavior... maybe a timer related bug
[06:02] <IndyGunFreak> i've been messing with MintLinux the last few days, so i'm not keeping track of ubuntu issues...lokl
[06:02] <Rainarrow> erUSUL, ok thanks, and it's in seconds right?
[06:02] <Bobbywan> eloo le monde.... ya t i l un soft ki permet d ecouter les rafio fr du style ims player
[06:03] <peterretief> b3nne: try uname -a
[06:03] <b3nne> thx peterretief
[06:03] <hinogi> does anyone have an idea how to rotate the movement of a stylus cursor along with the screen rotation?
[06:03] <erUSUL> Rainarrow: afaics yes
[06:03] <edson> hi guys, how I install as dual monitors in ubuntu?
[06:03] <IndyGunFreak> edson: what type of video card?
[06:03] <shiznit> anyone know how to set custom refresh rates?
[06:03] <erUSUL> !fixres | shiznit
[06:03] <ubotu> shiznit: 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
[06:03] <buzz-cp> veggie: that distro upgrade doesn't work--I guess you were kidding?
[06:04] <IndyGunFreak> shiznit: in xorg.conf i believe, but i don't usuall mess with it, so verify
[06:04] <Veggie> I wasn't. Any error messages involved?
[06:04] <buzz-cp> does anyone know how to get rid of these room chat announcements in GAIM (i.e. XYZ entered the room.)
[06:04] <IndyGunFreak> buzz-cp: yes, install a eral IRC client..lol
[06:04] <b3nne> peterretief, what shall I write on this one "Which version driver you want to release (x86) ?" if uname -a says "Linux b3nne-desktop 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Sun Sep 23 19:50:39 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[06:04] <b3nne> " ?
[06:04] <edson> IndyGunFreak, i am use laptop, video card is Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller.
[06:04] <c01100011> anything better than mumbles for dbus notifications ?
[06:05] <buzz-cp> Indy: thanks, perhaps you could be more specific
[06:05] <IndyGunFreak> edson: not really sure how to do it with intel, sorry
[06:05] <hinogi> does anyone have an idea how to rotate the movement of a stylus cursor along with the screen rotation? the mouse cursor does reackt according to the screen alignment but the stylus doesnt
[06:05] <mailavj> does any one know a good tool for verilog simulation in ubuntu
[06:05] <IndyGunFreak> buzz-cp: open a terminal, sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome
[06:05] <edson> hi guys, how I install as dual monitors in ubuntu?
[06:06] <IndyGunFreak> buzz-cp: my point is, GAIM/Pidgin, are IM clients, not IRC clients, so thy tend to suck at MIRC, while being good for Instant messaging... install an IRC client
[06:06] <rap176> hello
[06:06] <buzz-cp> what is the link to post lots of text?
[06:06] <erUSUL> IndyGunFreak: i thought you said a *real* irc client lol
[06:06] <IndyGunFreak> erUSUL: lol.. well, xchat-gnome is friendly
[06:06] <b3nne> peterretief, do you know?
[06:06] <buzz-cp> Indy: I see your point.  installed  xchat
[06:06] <rap176> i have windows installed on one disk and ubuntu on either. is there a way to make dual-boot work with this configuration, without having to change the boot disk in bios?
[06:06] <erUSUL> !paste | buzz-cp

[06:06] <b3nne> or anybody?

[06:06] <peterretief> b3nne: what was the context of the question
[06:07] <baabaablacksheep> how do i determine if my wlan is already installed?
[06:07] <b3nne> im not very good at english but what is a context? :P
[06:07] <IndyGunFreak> buzz-cp: ok.. open up xchat, choose gthe "Freenode Network", and log in to it, then when its logged on the server, type /join #ubuntu
[06:07] <buzz-cp> Veggie: here is what I get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39032/
[06:07] <baabaablacksheep> it was supposed to be installed at setup time.
[06:07] <peterretief> b3nne: what are you doing?

[06:09] <Veggie> You said you were using Drake? That's not thh latest.
[06:10] <Buzz_> yes I understand that
[06:10] <IndyGunFreak> Buzz_: you can't upgrade from Drake to Feisty...
[06:10] <Veggie> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade should of updated you.
[06:10] <Veggie> hey wait what
[06:10] <IndyGunFreak> Youhave to go from Drake, to Edgy, then Edgy to Feisty
[06:10] <Veggie> that'll be your problem, lulz
[06:10] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[06:10] <edson> hi guys, how I install as dual monitors in ubuntu?
[06:10] <IndyGunFreak> you probably wonked your system doing that.
[06:10] <Azhi_Dahaka> hi
[06:10] <peterretief> b3nne: thats probably would be x86 then
[06:10] <imperfect-> Hrm
[06:10] <imperfect-> I've got a breezy install
[06:10] <Buzz_> My point is.  I installed a few months back Drake from a DVD image...
[06:10] <imperfect-> on a xen box
[06:10] <rap176> answer me fuckers
[06:11] <imperfect-> I wonder if I could dist-upgrade to dapper

[06:11] <b3nne> ok thx peterretief
[06:11] <IndyGunFreak> Buzz_: auto updates update the OS, it doesn't prepare the system for dist-upgrade
[06:11] <panosru> any tool for video converting? (for 3gp format)
[06:11] <defcons> anyone?
[06:12] <IndyGunFreak> Buzz_: that would be like saying because you have windows 3.1x up to date, you should be able to runj vista software

[06:13] <IndyGunFreak> then edgy to feisty
[06:13] <kbrooks> IndyGunFreak, you are.
[06:13] <Veggie> I'd just clean re-install.

[06:20] <IndyGunFreak> bonj: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy help
[06:20] <sacater> what does ssh use, udp or tcp?
[06:20] <murkyMurk> PhenGy: what does the terminal command ifconfig give you?
[06:20] <bonj> oo.. okay
[06:20] <PhenGy> 127.1.0.0
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: use synaptic, it should resolve any dependencies for you
[06:21] <xen_> ok thanks :)
[06:21] <deepfreez> Hi, i have a question ( what another program ti's the best  for emule windows ) "ex: wine"
[06:21] <bonj> thanks
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> @jackbauer
[06:21] <coopster> I'm trying to find or make a interface for WebHostManager that I can use to update a DNS entry.  Does anyone have any pointers on something that might help?
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> @chuck
[06:21] <murkyMurk> deepfreez: amule
[06:21] <xen_> uh oh synaptic says the same thing!
[06:22] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: hmm.
[06:22] <IndyGunFreak> what repos do you have enabled?
[06:22] <deepfreez> tnx
[06:22] <xen_> should i include fiesty backports in the repositories?
[06:22] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: yes, enable all repos, including source code.
[06:22] <murkyMurk> PhenGy: ifconfig should return a lot more that that....does it mention eth0 at all?
[06:22] <PhenGy> also, why when i login it say something about  eRROR do not give write access to folder ?
[06:23] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: then reload synaptic, and try again
[06:23] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: what are you trying to install that requires this?
[06:23] <PhenGy> etho and etho-avah
[06:23] <xen_> latest snort
[06:23] <IndyGunFreak> snort?
[06:24] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: is there an old version in the repos?
[06:24] <xen_> yup
[06:24] <CyberMad> how to turn off the window animation when you minimize or maximize window?
[06:24] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: ok... from a terminal
[06:24] <xen_> yup
[06:24] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: wellf irst, make sure all those repos are enabled
[06:24] <c01100011_> how do i change deskbar-applet into panel mode ?
[06:24] <xen_> they are
[06:24] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: then at a terminal, type "sudo apt-get build-dep packagename"
[06:24] <IndyGunFreak> no quotes
[06:24] <xen_> ok
[06:24] <murkyMurk> PhenGy: then your ethernet is probably working just fine. You can restart it with sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart but I rather suspect your router is just ignoring you
[06:25] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: did it ask to install a ton of crap?
[06:25] <soundray> I've maxed out the mouse speed settings, and it's still too slow. What can I do?
[06:26] <xen_> almost there, sorry typing a bit slow atm lol
[06:26] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: lol, no prob.
[06:26] <taxman> ok, here's a dumb question. When I'm cutting and pasting with ctrl-c and ctrl-v that's controlled by the desktop environment, not the application, right?
[06:26] <Veggie> Taxman: Yes.
[06:26] <IndyGunFreak> i think so.
[06:26] <IndyGunFreak> I concur with the vegetarian
[06:26] <Veggie> I'm not actually a vegetarian >_>
[06:26] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[06:27] <murkyMurk> taxman: yes, hence some apps will accept a ctl+v but not have 'paste' highlited in their menu
[06:27] <xen_> just waiting for upadte manager to do its thing
[06:27] <Dr_willis> taxman,  X also has its own clipboard on Middle click (select/middle click) KDE/GNOME has a different clipboard.
[06:27] <taxman> ok, then is there a way to duplicate them? I want to use other custom key combinations to cut and paste as well
[06:27] <Veggie> It's from vegetable_hunter.
[06:27] <xen_> arghh! the repos dl so slowly lately :S
[06:27] <wilhart> i want to know what i'm upgrading! :D
[06:27] <Rainarrow> vegetarians are unfriendly to environment
[06:27] <murkyMurk> taxman: xmodmap probably
[06:27] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: sometimes, is it downloading the dependencies for snort?
[06:27] <wilhart> changes and new programs
[06:27] <taxman> ie ctrl- and ctrl-
[06:28] <IndyGunFreak> or are you updating something else.
[06:28] <PhenGy> i got it murk,  thank you,  my ethernet cable die
[06:28] <IndyGunFreak> PhenGy: so it was your ethernet cable
[06:28] <murkyMurk> PhenGy: sorted
[06:28] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[06:28] <xen_> no just some other updates, ive dl snort, i was just doing the ./configure when it told me i needed g++, so i tried dl that but then i got the error msg, ill try what you told me before but i gota wait for the update manager to finish :S
[06:28] <PhenGy> yes
[06:28] <DarkRift> When my Ubuntu 7.04 server starts I get info coming up on screen after it displays "cerberos login: " where cerberos is the hostname of my server, what is the file that I have to mod to let the login appear ONLY AFTER every scripts are executed ? I checked in /etc/event.d but that doesn't seems to be where I need to look at to delay the login prompt after all the executed scripts
[06:28] <taxman> murkyMurk: how do I access that?
[06:28] <wilhart> please?
[06:28] <PhenGy> i got another error though, i will gvie in a bit
[06:29] <xen_> 3 minutes to go :S lol
[06:29] <murkyMurk> !xmodmap
[06:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xmodmap - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:29] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: yeah.. after you runt hat build-dep command, then you can run ./configure, and as long as it doesn't have a major dependency over the previous version, should work perfect.
[06:29] <shadowspider> Sorry, back again. Whats recommended partition size. I am using my Vista Manager to shrink size. How much do I need for Vista + Linux. Absolute Beginner
[06:29] <xen_> cool, thanks :)
[06:29] <Jowi> I lost track.... who asked about mouse speed?
[06:29] <PhenGy> Users $home/.DMRC file is being ignored.  File should be owned by user and have 644 permission?       how to fix that
[06:30] <murkyMurk> taxman: sudo apt-get install xmodmap followed by man xmodmap
[06:30] <Veggie> shadowspider: How big is your hard-drive?
[06:30] <PhenGy> Users $home/.DMRC file is being ignored.  File should be owned by user and have 644 permission?       how to fix that on boot up
[06:30] <brigan> can some one help me
[06:30] <soundray> I've got a machine where the mouse is too slow, even at the maximum speed settings. On another, medium settings are well sufficient. What can I do to get higher mouse speed? I want basic speed -- don't care for the acceleration stuff
[06:30] <Fraer4e> seaaaa
[06:30] <Dr_willis> PhenGy,  just delete that file is one way i belive
[06:30] <IndyGunFreak> brigan: not if we don't know the question.
[06:30] <xen_> omg 23 kB/s -.-
[06:30] <Dr_willis> PhenGy,  it will get remade
[06:30] <brigan> nice
[06:30] <taxman> murkyMurk: ok, will do. I was hoping there was an Ubuntu way with preferences or something
[06:30] <Jowi> ah it was soundray, there is a "resolution" setting in xorg.conf
[06:30] <brigan> i was getting to that
[06:30] <PhenGy> so delete  .dmrc ?
[06:30] <IndyGunFreak> oops... psychic
[06:30] <pipegeek> hehe.... turns out my huge problem with network-manager was a bug in the version of network-manager in feisty.  Hopefully, it's been fixed for gutsy, or a lot of people will be pissed the hell off.
[06:30] <Dr_willis> PhenGy,  thats one fix. :)
[06:31] <brigan> im running ubuntu 64 on a amd dual core and the thing locks up
[06:31] <PhenGy> ok will try
[06:31] <murkyMurk> PhenGy: ya, i would
[06:31] <Dr_willis> bbl
[06:31] <brigan> when i run compiz or beryl
[06:31] <Veggie> brigan: is your processor 64 bit?
[06:31] <IndyGunFreak> !enter | beryl
[06:31] <ubotu> beryl: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:31] <brigan> i have the latest drivers from nvidia
[06:31] <CyberMad> how to turn off the window animation when you minimize or maximize window?
[06:31] <Veggie> Oh, when you run compiz.
[06:31] <shadowspider> Veggie: My "Computer" says HDD is 224 MB, but Manage says 232.88GB
[06:31] <IndyGunFreak> run 32bit, problem solved.
[06:31] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[06:31] <Veggie> Compiz is beta software may not work for everyone etc. etc.
[06:32] <deepfreez> another program for running .exe in linux ? wine are no good... another?
[06:32] <brigan> nice
[06:32] <murkyMurk> deepfreez: cedega but it will cost you
[06:32] <Veggie> Erm, you've got loads of room then, just split in two.
[06:32] <bTnXg8LF6> I have downloaded the Ubuntu 7.04, I get a BCMxx error. how come???/
[06:32] <Veggie> or 3, if you're making a /home partition.
[06:32] <soundray> Jowi: I can't find that in the man pages -- can you elaborate?
[06:32] <brigan> no i like the 64 bit and i have a 64 bit proc
[06:32] <IndyGunFreak> 64bit isn't worth it to me..., no flash w/o hoop jumping, web plugins, etc.. no th anks.
[06:32] <deepfreez> murkyMurk: ok
[06:32] <bTnXg8LF6> I have downloaded the Ubuntu 7.04, I get a BCMxx error. how come???/
[06:32] <brigan> i got flash running
[06:32] <brigan> lol
[06:32] <Filthpig> hi all: Problem! Bought a nice LG 32" LCD TV today (32LB2R)  and wanted to plug it to my computer (Running ubuntu feisty).. When I go to the HDMI/DVI-input I get "No signal".. I've been googling a bit for an answer, but many threads are old and not quite right for me.. Does anyone know how to fix this without reading tons of forum posts first?
[06:32] <IndyGunFreak> brigan: well thats good.
[06:33] <brigan> i use the plugin wrapper
[06:33] <brigan> with the 32 plugins
[06:33] <bTnXg8LF6> I have downloaded the Ubuntu 7.04, I get a BCMxx error. how come???/
[06:33] <shadowspider> Veggie: Any idea? (Thanks)

[06:33] <brigan> i also the aipc error when i boot
[06:33] <bTnXg8LF6> Sorry
[06:33] <Jowi> soundray, you can also set MinSpeed + MaxSpeed in xorg.conf InputDevice section... the darnest thing, I can't find the reference for it on x.org's homepage. only google pages...
[06:33] <sureshot> hey my i ask does anyone know if charon vax emulator is in any of the repos here on ubuntu
[06:33] <pipegeek> How stable is the gutsy beta feeling?  And do I dare apt-get dist-upgrade?
[06:33] <Jowi> soundray, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-230197.html
[06:34] <Veggie> shadow: Just divide it by 2 or 3, lulz.
[06:34] <murkyMurk> Filthpig: you need to enable TV out in your video card and you need to get it right or the piccie will be naff. Just google tv out for your card
[06:34] <bTnXg8LF6> Veggi
[06:34] <IndyGunFreak> pipegeek: its ok for me, but i definitely wouldn't upgrade yet
[06:34] <Veggie> Gutsy is beta software, may not work for everyone etc. etc.
[06:34] <xen_> well i got E: Unable to find a source package for packagename
[06:34] <IndyGunFreak> Veggie: do you just cut and paste that over and over?..lol
[06:34] <brigan> i've lookd for patches and bug fixes but im stumped
[06:34] <bTnXg8LF6> Can anyone help me?
[06:34] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: i meant the name of the package.. is it snort?
[06:34] <soundray> Jowi: I think I found something: www.xfree86.og/4.2.0/mouse.4.html -- thanks, I'll try that
[06:34] <jgoguen> pipegeek: runs beautifully for me on both my desktop and Intel MacBook, but I wouldn't use it on a production box unless you're OK with possibly doing a lot of debugging and repair without a GUI
[06:34] <IndyGunFreak> nto "packagename"....
[06:34] <xen_> sorry i have the dumb atm, i meant snort lol
[06:34] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[06:35] <pipegeek> IndyGunFreak: Should I avoid apt-get dist-upgrade as an upgrade mechanism in general in ubuntu?  That's broken for me every time, warty -> hoary -> breezy -> feisty
[06:35] <shadowspider> Veggie: (Sorry) But what does that mean. My PC has 167.72 GB Free Space apparently. Im backing up files now.
[06:35] <bTnXg8LF6> Can anyone help me?
[06:35] <xen_> E: Build-dependencies for snort could not be satisfied.
[06:35] <xen_> :S
[06:35] <IndyGunFreak> pipegeek: well, breezy--- Feisty, i can see why.
[06:35] <techknow> can someone help me with my usb wifi adapter
[06:35] <soundray> Jowi: I assume it won't be much different for xorg
[06:35] <jgoguen> !repeat | bTnXg8LF6

[06:35] <techknow> I bought a belkin wireless g usb today
[06:35] <Veggie> Shrink Vista to 80 gig, and install ubutnu in the rest
[06:35] <oenixx> :)
[06:35] <pipegeek> still, it worked woody -> sarge -> edgy, and those are bigger jumps
[06:35] <techknow> and its giving me trouble
[06:35] <Jowi> soundray, I suppose. the worst thing that will happen is that you get an error.
[06:35] <brigan> so oh one more thing when it does freeze the mouse still works
[06:35] <Filthpig> murkyMurk: I though stuff like that might already be fixed with the nvidia driver? :/

[06:37] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: can you give me a link to where you downloaded the snort sourcecode?
[06:37] <techknow> I installed ndiswrapper
[06:37] <techknow> and the proper driver
[06:37] <Stephen> how do i turn on direct rendering
[06:37] <techknow> but I can't disable zd1211rw
[06:37] <Jowi> !language | grangiz
[06:37] <ubotu> grangiz: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:37] <bTnXg8LF6> I have downloaded the Ubuntu 7.04, I get a BCMxx error. how come???/
[06:37] <techknow> which is the driver its using atm
[06:37] <techknow> I have tried modprobe -r zd1211rw
[06:37] <techknow> and blacklisting it
[06:37] <Pete1> Does anyone know why Ubuntu Live CD wont install in a laptop with NVIDIA 8600?
[06:37] <Veggie> bTnXg8LF6, how did you get that error?
[06:37] <techknow> but its not working
[06:37] <xen_> i just cd to /usr/local/src and the wget http://www.snort.org/dl/current/snort-2.8.0.tar.gz
[06:37] <xen_> then untar
[06:37] <murkyMurk> Filthpig: you have to turn it on though with settings for your TV and what protocl you're using..it's not hard and is usually just a couple of lines in your xorg.conf. The nvidia readme is fantastic
[06:37] <techknow> anyone?
[06:37] <xen_> and try ./configure
[06:38] <Stephen> Pete1, I cant get the Ubuntu Live cd to install on anything :(
[06:38] <brigan> so has any one else had this problem ?
[06:38] <xen_> thats when it asks about the c compiler
[06:38] <soundray> techknow: if you have a device that's supported by the zd1211rw driver, I would recommend using that, and not ndiswrapper.
[06:38] <grangiz> Jowi: Im what you use to communicate, im Magnus. I wish you learn baby
[06:38] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: hold on, i'm installing the dependencies now(that command worked fine for me..lol)
[06:38] <bTnXg8LF6> I have downloaded the Ubuntu 7.04, I get a BCMxx error. how come???/
[06:38] <bonbonce> cao
[06:38] <xen_> :P
[06:38] <techknow> soundray: then what do I do to get it working
[06:38] <Veggie> bTnXg8LF6, are you listening?

[06:39] <bazhang> I installed another (not Ubuntu) distro on an external hard drive, but having trouble as it was apparently not added to the GRUB menu.lst
[06:39] <soundray> techknow: configure it through networkmanager. Do you need WPA or WEP?

[06:39] <techknow> soundray: its not showing up
[06:39] <xen_> btw the comand i use is  sudo ./configure --with-mysql --enable-dynamicplugin

[06:42] <Jowi> bazhang, it's a new disk?
[06:42] <bazhang> yes, relatively new.
[06:42] <xen_> IndyGunFreak: did snort compile ok for you?
[06:42] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: still downloading the dependencies :(..lol
[06:42] <Jowi> bazhang, no, what I meant was - has it ever been partitioned?
[06:42] <IndyGunFreak> 8min
[06:42] <xen_> lolz
[06:42] <bTnXg8LF6> I have an ATi card
[06:42] <bTnXg8LF6> anyone?
[06:42] <murkyMurk> Filthpig: yeah, that's normal. During boot your graphics card BIOS is handling simple output on all ports. When X boots it takes control and only does what it's told to do via the xorg.conf file
[06:42] <xen_> brb, drink
[06:42] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: but i feel pretty certain it will.
[06:42] <soundray> Jowi: thanks for your input. It seems that my setup doesn't support the resolution option (running ubuntu in vmware)
[06:42] <bTnXg8LF6> I just need a link to a live cd
[06:42] <bazhang> yes, several times, as it formerly was an internal disk.
[06:43] <Jowi> soundray, ah, sorry to hear that.
[06:43] <Veggie> Live CDs are beta software, may not... XD
[06:43] <bTnXg8LF6> I want to dual boot both Ubuntu and Vista
[06:43] <soundray> techknow: do you see any messages relating to the driver loading?
[06:43] <murkyMurk> bTnXg8LF6: use a non-alt liveCD and you will get a GUI...OR get ready to edit the xorg.conf file using vi
[06:43] <IndyGunFreak> bTnXg8LF6: sounds like you have some sort of wonky hardware, why not just use the alt. install?
[06:43] <PhenGy> murky:  how many background processes can u do for 1 login? i am admin but seems like i can only load 5 eggdrop background? must i create another login?
[06:43] <DarkRift> When my Ubuntu 7.04 server starts I get info coming up on screen after it displays "cerberos login: " where cerberos is the hostname of my server, what is the file that I have to mod to let the login appear ONLY AFTER every scripts are executed ? I checked in /etc/event.d but that doesn't seems to be where I need to look at to delay the login prompt after all the executed scripts
[06:43] <techknow> yeah
[06:43] <bTnXg8LF6> where can i get alt install?
[06:43] <techknow> it loads
[06:43] <techknow> then registers a new interface
[06:44] <IndyGunFreak> bTnXg8LF6: from ubuntu.com, just be forewarned, its text based, not a live cd, but its still easy
[06:44] <soundray> techknow: do you see a wireless interface when you run ifconfig -a ?
[06:44] <bTnXg8LF6> how do i start install?indy?
[06:44] <bTnXg8LF6> i get a prompt
[06:44] <techknow> no
[06:44] <IndyGunFreak> bTnXg8LF6: it walks you throught he process through a series of text menus
[06:44] <murkyMurk> bTnXg8LF6: No, DO NOT USE alt disc unless you are an expert. Just grab the usual from ubuntu.com
[06:44] <bTnXg8LF6> i did
[06:44] <bazhang> if it helps, I'm already dual booting Mandriva and Ubuntu on the internal drive, and PCLOS was installed to the external drive; all the installs went fine, but only PCLOS cannot boot, as there is no reference to it in the GRUB menu
[06:45] <bTnXg8LF6> i get a prompt with UBUNTU@UBUNTU:
[06:45] <IndyGunFreak> murkyMurk: lol, only disk i've ever used is alternate.. it'll get you around stupid hardware issues that screw up the liev cd(for me, its my dual screens)
[06:45] <Jowi> bazhang, see if you get anything interesting with parted. "sudo parted /dev/yourexternaldisk" and type "print [enter] " and "quit [enter] "
[06:45] <IndyGunFreak> its hardly "expert" if you ask me, unless you make it that way
[06:45] <soundray> techknow: have you got time? I've got a zd usb stick in the garage -- I'll get it and see how it behaves here.
[06:45] <Veggie> Alternate disk is expert, what?
[06:45] <techknow> soundray: I have plenty
[06:45] <techknow> I'd really appreciate any help
[06:45] <IndyGunFreak> Veggie: lol, according to murkyMurklol
[06:45] <bTnXg8LF6> anyone have a link to a live cd so i can install that then update?
[06:45] <techknow> this is really annoying me now
[06:45] <soundray> techknow: back soon
[06:45] <techknow> thanks
[06:45] <murkyMurk> IndyGunFreak: yeah, same troubel here but I first ran RH in the 90s and used to run Slack...methinks btn might be more newbie
[06:46] <Veggie> btnx - www.google.com
[06:46] <bTnXg8LF6> ...
[06:46] <IndyGunFreak> murkyMurk: well, you gotta learn sometime.
[06:46] <bTnXg8LF6> yo don't think i tried that
[06:46] <xen_> omg, try:  sudo apt-get moo
[06:46] <xen_> lol
[06:46] <IndyGunFreak> bTnXg8LF6: are you wanting another live CD.., i thougjht you just tried a live cd and it didn't work?
[06:46] <Filthpig> murkyMurk: But I don't understand why the TV isn't automatically detected as a LCD monitor, it's connected through DVI/HDMI.. I thought at least something like the 800x600 res would work as a place to start..?
[06:46] <bTnXg8LF6> i tried the cd on the webste
[06:46] <Veggie> I actually made a script called moo, that "echo: moo". Made me so happy.
[06:46] <shadowspider> Veggie: So what exactly will I need to do. Shrink my C: to 80GB and then what. Ubuntu wouldn't need 80 would it. I thought 10GB would be enough? It's only for some work. My MP3 Player etc will be off Vista when I load it at PC Launch.
[06:46] <xen_> lolz
[06:46] <runemaste644> I need immediate help!
[06:47] <runemaste644> i have a hacked GTK installed but it stopped working
[06:47] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: you never knew that?
[06:47] <runemaste644> and i cant reinstall GTK
[06:47] <IndyGunFreak> runemaste644: well that was pretty dumb, why did you install hacked version?
[06:47] <xen_> no was just browsing the forums and saw it lolz
[06:47] <runemaste644> i installed the hacked gtk on purpouse
[06:47] <Tomcat_> shadowspider: 10 GB will be good.
[06:47] <runemaste644> for macmenu-applet
[06:47] <IndyGunFreak> runemaste644: then uninstall it on purpose, and reinstall.
[06:47] <murkyMurk> Filthpig: probably because it's designed to be a TV and not a computer monitor?
[06:47] <thomeek> welcome
[06:47] <Jowi> runemaste644, open synaptic. chose the gtk package. go to package -> force version.
[06:48] <runemaste644> i can't
[06:48] <IndyGunFreak> then you're screwed.
[06:48] <xen_> runemaste644: dude i so bet you play runescape XD
[06:48] <shadowspider> Tomcat_: Great. So do I literally just click shrink and thats it?
[06:48] <runemaste644> i cant get to force version
[06:48] <runemaste644> thats the problem
[06:48] <bazhang> I followed a walkthrough from Ubuntuforums, all to no avail; after editing the GRUB menu, I get an error 21, no disk found for that entry.
[06:48] <runemaste644> yes i do play runescape
[06:48] <xen_> LoL
[06:48] <Jowi> runemaste644, why can't you? didn't you install the debs instead of compiling it yourself?
[06:48] <Roge> what tool can i use to install a .deb
[06:48] <thomeek> #bash.org.pl
[06:48] <thomeek> #bash.org.pl
[06:48] <Tomcat_> shadowspider: I haven't exactly used the installer in that way, but if it looks good then do it. :)
[06:49] <branstrom> How do I get a few pixels of padding between icons on my Gnome panel?
[06:49] <xen_> ill give you some good macro cheats for runescape if you want :P
[06:49] <Tomcat_> shadowspider: Remember to make backups before.
[06:49] <runemaste644> i installed the debs for the hacked GTK
[06:49] <wilhart> is there a changelog for recently upgraded programs
[06:49] <drakode> so what is for install a .sh?
[06:49] <D4N`> you tell me
[06:49] <wilhart> remote not locally
[06:49] <hinogi> anyone has any experience with writing in the xournal?
[06:49] <Jowi> runemaste644, so did I and managed to remove it. why can't you force version?
[06:49] <Roge> you can do sh file.sh drakode
[06:49] <runemaste644> and when i try to install the older deb, it says a newer version is there and wont let me install it
[06:49] <drakode> ok
[06:49] <Veggie> You can't install .sh =S
[06:49] <shadowspider> Tomcat_: Is it easy to roll back errors and problems. I'm doing a backup, but that doesn't protect my Vista install. It's quite pointless because all music and pics are on my Creative ZEN anyway. Should I stop it?
[06:50] <runemaste644> the menu bars only appear in macmenu-applet
[06:50] <Roge> well sometimes the .sh installs something for you though
[06:50] <heguru> runemaste644: did you add a repository for the hacked debs? or downloaded and installed?
[06:50] <runemaste644> and macmenu-applet broke
[06:50] <drakode> and a .bin?
[06:50] <bobocopy> runemaster, I think you have to use force=yes when installing the deb from the commandline.
[06:50] <Veggie> Well then, just run the script.
[06:50] <hinogi> my strokes in xournal are not immediatly traced when i write only after i finished the stroke they appear right
[06:50] <Tomcat_> shadowspider: You're using the graphical installer, and want to shrink the partition?
[06:50] <runemaste644> i downloaded and installed from the debs
[06:50] <Jowi> runemaste644, ah.
[06:50] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: 2min left.
[06:50] <shadowspider> Tomcat_: Yes
[06:50] <xen_> kk :)
[06:50] <IndyGunFreak> assuming the server doesn't fall to 30k again..lol
[06:50] <Tomcat_> shadowspider: Good, then go on. :)
[06:51] <murkyMurk> anyone know how to make the surround channels respond in sync with the master volume control?
[06:51] <heguru> runemaste644: from the terminal do: sudo apt-get --reinstall install libgtk
[06:51] <shadowspider> Tomcat_: Great. And if problems arise, what should I do. I'll be killed if I mess up or ruin the PC.
[06:51] <bobocopy> sudo apt-get install -force=yes libgtk
[06:51] <runemaste644> how do i install the deb from command line?
[06:51] <soundray> techknow: which ubuntu version do you have?
[06:51] <Veggie> dpkg -i /path
[06:51] <runemaste644> 7.04
[06:51] <bobocopy> Wait, I think heguru's is right.
[06:51] <Tomcat_> shadowspider: Well, I said you need to make backups... the installer *should* work but you can never be 100% sure with these operations.
[06:51] <techknow> emm
[06:51] <techknow> edgy
[06:51] <techknow> isn't that 7.4?
[06:52] <Veggie> efgy = 6.10
[06:52] <IndyGunFreak> efgy?.. i must have skipped that verison
[06:52] <shadowspider> Tomcat_: But it is currently backing up music, so I don't see point. Once my vista is safe I am happy.
[06:52] <techknow> feisty
[06:52] <KefZz> Hey, i get a weird error when i try to install ubuntu, it says "Failed to start the X server"
[06:52] <techknow> soundray: feisty
[06:52] <techknow> sorry
[06:52] <IndyGunFreak> anyone know what H is gonna be?
[06:52] <Veggie> Indy: lulz
[06:52] <soundray> techknow: are you sure now? cat /etc/lsb-release
[06:52] <usser> horny something ))
[06:52] <bobocopy> Hungry Hippo
[06:52] <techknow> I am sure yeah
[06:52] <Veggie> Horny Hyena
[06:52] <usser> ahahaha
[06:52] <xen_> lolz
[06:53] <IndyGunFreak> i was pretty disappointed with gutsy.
[06:53] <Tomcat_> Hardy Heron
[06:53] <techknow> yeah is definitely feisty
[06:53] <xen_> angry ape
[06:53] <Tomcat_> That's H, definitely.
[06:53] <KefZz> Hey, i get a weird error when i try to install ubuntu, it says "Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface.)" anyone know what the reason for it is? I want to boot ubuntu live
[06:53] <xen_> mad monkey?
[06:53] <usser> IndyGunFreak: its not even out yet lol )
[06:53] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: installign now.
[06:53] <usser> IndyGunFreak: give it time
[06:53] <Tomcat_> usser: No, but the name is final.
[06:53] <IndyGunFreak> usser: no.. not the OS, the name...lol
[06:53] <soundray> techknow: okay, do a ifconfig -a again and scroll up to see whether you have an eth1 interface
[06:53] <IndyGunFreak> the OS is fine, i hate the name
[06:53] <PhenGy> how come whenever copyin eggdrop .tcl files over to another account, and when try to run it says access deny on other user, what is fastest way to resolve?
[06:53] <Jowi> runemaste644, in what way does the mac-menu fail? you don't get the menu at all (even if you remove the panel applet)?
[06:53] <techknow> soundray: o
[06:53] <techknow> no
[06:53] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: its compiling
[06:53] <techknow> just eth0
[06:53] <KoTiK>  !
[06:54] <peepsalot> what does a "v" next to a package mean in aptitude?
[06:54] <usser> oh name, duh ubuntu names are all stupid
[06:54] <Tomcat_> IndyGunFreak: The names are only for dev versions... the finals only have version numbers officially. ;)
[06:54] <runemaste644> yep
[06:54] <xen_> hmm, much trouble i must have maybe :S
[06:54] <usser> its what pisses me off a lot about ubuntu
[06:54] <Jowi> runemaste644, "yep" you get the menu if you remove the applet?
[06:54] <Veggie> LFS is where it's at =D
[06:54] <murkyMurk> yeah, always sounds like an insult U bunt U
[06:54] <peepsalot> where does it say what the letters mean for packages listed under apt-get/aptitude
[06:54] <IndyGunFreak> Tomcat_: well, in the 'About Ubuntu", its referred to as "Ubuntu 7.04, the Feisty Fawn edition"
[06:54] <Veggie> You can make your own stupid names!
[06:54] <xen_> they should release one called stoned shark, that would be cool
[06:54] <soundray> techknow: is there an eth0?
[06:55] <Tomcat_> IndyGunFreak: Well sure, it'll be mentioned somewhere... but you can always just say "Ubuntu 7.04" and be okay with it.
[06:55] <techknow> yes
[06:55] <IndyGunFreak> Tomcat_: very true.
[06:55] <davi> Does Ubuntu include binary blobs in its linux kernel?
[06:55] <xen_> wasted willow
[06:55] <soundray> techknow: does that correspond with hardware that you know of?
[06:55] <peepsalot> i think the next animal will be ahyena
[06:55] <Incompetnce> can someone talk me through formatting a USB drive so that i can use it on both ubuntu and windows?
[06:55] <techknow> yes
[06:55] <runemaste644> i use aptitude
[06:55] <xen_> drunk donkey XD
[06:55] <techknow> a NIC thats in the machine
[06:55] <runemaste644> no
[06:55] <techknow> soundray: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=295843&highlight=zd1211rw
[06:55] <techknow> I just found that
[06:55] <techknow> should I give it a try?
[06:55] <Tomcat_> Incompetnce: Open gparted, format it to fat-16 :o
[06:56] <runemaste644> um, it would be a bit easier to solve this in another empty channel
[06:56] <Filthpig> murkyMurk: sorry for being in weekend-mode, but xorg will be able to send the same image to both my 17" LCD PC Monitor and the TV at the same time? I won't have to choose one?
[06:56] <runemaste644> like my channel #csh-jokes
[06:56] <josh__> if i reinstalled ubuntu  is there anyway of gettign around running it manually
[06:56] <soundray> techknow: that's for edgy. I know zd doesn't work on edgy, but it works here on feisty "out of the box"
[06:56] <techknow> ok
[06:56] <techknow> ...
[06:56] <IndyGunFreak> xen_: it seems to have worked
[06:56] <bobocopy> What do you mean, josh__?
[06:57] <soundray> techknow: how far did you get with the ndiswrapper installation?
[06:57] <xen_> bugger, i mean thats cool, but bad for me :S
[06:57] <Jowi> runemaste644, there is a --target-release / --default-release option to apt-get you can try. I haven't used that myself so I don't knkow exactly how it works. perhaps someone can chip in?
[06:57] <murkyMurk> Filthpig: should do. Ceratinly with my nvidia it can. You get to choose whether you want multiple desktops or cloned desktops or whatever
[06:57] <techknow> soundray: I completed it
[06:57] <techknow> but then I couldn't load the driver that I installed with it
[06:57] <GreyWolfe> Hi, I was wondering if anyone could recommend any good media players for Ubuntu, both in regards to appearance and functionability.

[06:57] <Filthpig> I miss some gui to xorg.conf..
[06:57] <techknow> and even though I blacklisted it
[06:57] <techknow> it kept loading
[06:57] <runemaste644> Jowi: could you join #csh-jokes so it is only us talking?
[06:58] <soundray> techknow: okay, how did you do the blacklisting?
[06:58] <Esteth> I just plugged in an ethernet cable to my computer, but ubuntu appears to not see it. How would i make ubuntu see the ethernet cable/device?
[06:58] <runemaste644> and everyone else trying to help me
[06:58] <Filthpig> hmm, the manual for my TV says the best res for the tv is 1380x768 @ 60 hz o0
[06:58] <Jowi> runemaste644, It was the last thing to come to mind and don't really have any more help to give...
[06:58] <techknow> by adding "blacklist zd1211rw" into /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[06:58] <Filthpig> murkyMurk: hmm, the manual for my TV says the best res for the tv is 1380x768 @ 60 hz o0

[07:00] <KefZz> Well i get a Fatal server error, "No screens found"
[07:00] <techknow> I can back up all the data I need to...
[07:00] <xen_> very very strange, ive traced the dependencys back to libc6, which ive already got, which i need lib6-dev, so when i try lib6-dev it spits out The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[07:00] <techknow> which isn't much
[07:00] <xen_>   libc6-dev: Depends: libc6 (= 2.5-0ubuntu14) but 2.6.1-1ubuntu7 is to be installed
[07:00] <KefZz> and it can`t boot the X server... whatever that is :P
[07:00] <Some_ux> Hi
[07:00] <xen_> but i already have libc6!?
[07:00] <MasterShrek> KefZz, the xserver is your graphical environment
[07:00] <Filthpig> MasterShrek: GF 7600GS
[07:00] <bobocopy> What's the problem, KefZz?
[07:00] <Roge> is there a way to flush out apt-get.. i messed with .deb files and dpkg and now apt-get wont install select packages that are available in an aptitude search
[07:00] <xen_> uh oh ive broken something havent i :S
[07:00] <namiwawa> i would like to install Java run time
[07:01] <namiwawa> whats the command to run
[07:01] <gnomefreak> Borat: what do those links have to do with ubuntu support?
[07:01] <soundray> techknow: it's a possibility, but before you do that, I'd see if you get an eth1 interface in a live CD session
[07:01] <namiwawa> after sudo apt-get
[07:01] <techknow> ok
[07:01] <murkyMurk> Filthpig: I've got two of those in SLi configuration

[07:01] <KefZz> I dont know if that has anything to do..?
[07:01] <MasterShrek> Filthpig, if you use nvidias driver from their website, it comes with a nice gui app that can detect the resolution of whatever you have plugged in
[07:01] <techknow> soundray: yes
[07:01] <techknow> multiple times
[07:01] <soundray> Hilikus: select Recovery grom the grub menu
[07:02] <Jowi> runemaste644, try this: sudo apt-get -t edgy install libgtk2.0-0

[07:02] <techknow> btw loading the livecd now
[07:02] <Filthpig> murkyMurk, MasterShrek: hang on, I tried editing some lines according to the nvidia readme (from their download site) and will try to reboot X.. If I'm not back very soon I've probably messed something up :P
[07:02] <IndyGunFreak> Veggie: shhh, we all look brilliant when we fix these problems...lol
[07:02] <DayWalker> i don't have internet connection on Ubuntu becoz of VPN ..
[07:02] <Hilikus> soundray thats the only difference in that mode? i want everything as normal except no X

[07:03] <Filthpig> MasterShrek: I know, but ol' crdlb almost ripped my spine out when I said I was using that and told me to use the repos version of the driver
[07:03] <namiwawa> using command
[07:03] <techknow> yeah
[07:03] <IndyGunFreak> namiwawa: search synaptic for java, and install it.
[07:03] <gnomefreak> namiwawa: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[07:03] <namiwawa> on the add/remove i got it
[07:03] <DayWalker> can any buddy tell me how can i install nm or other things without internet connection please ...
[07:03] <Filthpig> crdlb is God, so I listen to the guy :p
[07:03] <namiwawa> ahhhh ok thanks
[07:03] <MasterShrek> Filthpig, i ALWAYS use nvidia's drivers from their site
[07:03] <soundray> techknow: you could also delete the zd1211rw.ko file from the kernel module tree
[07:03] <murkyMurk> MasterShrek: nvidia-settings and nvidia-config are installed even with the restricted drivers pack
[07:03] <techknow> yeah
[07:03] <Roge> DayWalker,  some packs mite be availabe on the cd
[07:03] <KefZz> Okay i am on the ubuntu obot-menu now
[07:03] <JDStone> crap, I updated to gutsy and there are some broken packages
[07:03] <techknow> I might try that
[07:03] <KefZz> *boot-menu
[07:03] <MasterShrek> murkyMurk, i was not aware, cuz i never installed them lol
[07:03] <Filthpig> oh well, brb I hope ;)
[07:03] <KefZz> I have tried to use safe graphics mode but same error
[07:04] <soundray> Hilikus: no, recovery is single user. To stop X completely after booting, do a 'sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop'
[07:04] <soundray> Hilikus: to prevent X from coming up in the first place, do a 'sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove'
[07:04] <Roge> ?
[07:04] <bobocopy> KefZz: Which version are you running?  Desktop or server?  6 or 7?
[07:04] <Veggie> Indy: Haha, but it's the best way to learn, in my opinion, because you tend to get a lot more information surrounding the subject with it. It's better than just a fix.
[07:04] <KefZz> 7.04
[07:04] <Some_ux> If i am root, do i need to provide a password when using the su command ?
[07:04] <gnomefreak> Some_ux: use sudo
[07:05] <IndyGunFreak> Some_ux: why would you be root?.. use sudo
[07:05] <KefZz> PC edition i think lol
[07:05] <KefZz> I just got the cd in mail
[07:05] <bobocopy> And server or desktop?
[07:05] <gnomefreak> Some_ux: ubuntu disables su
[07:05] <bobocopy> Oh, okay.
[07:05] <murkyMurk> Some_ux: su stands for Switch User, not Super User
[07:05] <Hilikus> soundray im trying to make my tv-out work so i want to remove xorg.conf to run X -configure again and get a xorg.conf that works for my TV, you think that sounds right?
[07:05] <Some_ux> i do not want to be root, visa versa, i want to run something as someone else when i am root
[07:05] <PhenGy> how come I cant run more then 6 processes on my shell? I loaded the 7th and 8th Eggdrop, but it doesnt show up on iRC
[07:05] <soundray> Hilikus: no
[07:05] <namiwawa> IndyGunFreak, ...it aint working
[07:05] <Filthpig> hmm
[07:05] <Hilikus> :S
[07:05] <soundray> Hilikus: have you been through the ubuntu help? Look:
[07:05] <IndyGunFreak> namiwawa: gthen you're doing something wrong.. did you search synaptic for java?
[07:05] <soundray> !tvout | Hilikus
[07:05] <techknow> soundray: I get a eth1 interface with the live cd
[07:05] <ubotu> Hilikus: 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*)
[07:05] <DayWalker> Roge:  i download files but when i try to install msg i got like this ---> The  support your system architecture..
[07:06] <IndyGunFreak> !java
[07:06] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[07:06] <KefZz> I get to a blue screen and some text comes up when i try to boot/install
[07:06] <techknow> and I am connected to the net :/
[07:06] <Filthpig> well I'm back, but still no signal on the tv :/
[07:06] <techknow> soundray: any ideas what I should do then?
[07:06] <Some_ux> When i run scripts during boot in rc.local i am root. BUT i dont want to run certain servers as root,
[07:06] <PhenGy> how come I cant run more then 6 processes on my shell? I loaded the 7th and 8th Eggdrop, but it doesnt show up on iRC
[07:06] <techknow> just reinstall afresh?
[07:06] <namiwawa> IndyGunFreak,  i guess my question is how do you know what to type after sudo apt-get install
[07:06] <Roge> DayWalker,  it sounds like you downloaded files that where compiled for a cpu other then the one you have
[07:06] <soundray> techknow: that limits the source of the weirdness to your installation.
[07:06] <murkyMurk> Hilikus: errr, not usually, just edit the xorg.conf according to the insatructiosn given by your video card maker (ATi/NVidia/whatever)
[07:06] <namiwawa> how do you know the package name
[07:06] <techknow> yeah
[07:06] <IndyGunFreak> namiwawa: i told you, use synaptic
[07:06] <techknow> I'll just reinstall
[07:06] <techknow> I don't mind doing so
[07:06] <techknow> thanks for the help
[07:07] <soundray> techknow: that's what I'd do. Good luck
[07:07] <namiwawa> ok thanks
[07:07] <IndyGunFreak> then you won't need to.
[07:07] <Some_ux> So my predicament is the reverse of that when using sudo
[07:07] <DayWalker> i have i386 intel pentium 4
[07:07] <KefZz> Okay this is full text of what comes up:  Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?
[07:07] <namiwawa> IndyGunFreak,  thanks for that
[07:07] <IndyGunFreak> namiwawa: open synaptic package manager, and search for java, look for something like sunjava6jre, or something like that, and right click, mark for install, then click apply
[07:07] <bobocopy> KefZz:
[07:07] <bobocopy> I had the same problem.
[07:07] <DayWalker> i downloaded .deb files and .tar.gz
[07:07] <murkyMurk> Filthpig: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=98456 <<<< any help?
[07:07] <Hilikus> murkyMurk i tried to play with a lot of parameters in the file yesterday but none of them worked, i always get somethin on the TV, but its garbled, you can see the colors (i.e its trying to show the right thing) but its always garbled
[07:07] <gnomefreak> sun-java6-jre or plugin will also grab jre and bin for you
[07:07] <bobocopy> You can still run from the command line though, right?
[07:07] <KefZz> How did you fix it then bobocopy?
[07:08] <DayWalker> Rog: i downloaded .deb files and .tar.gz
[07:08] <KefZz> Yes
[07:08] <namiwawa> IndyGunFreak,  i did that but its taken a whole day  so i wanted to use the terminal
[07:08] <KefZz> i get a choice if i wanna see the diagnostic or not
[07:08] <IndyGunFreak> namiwawa: it takes a while to download and install.
[07:08] <KefZz> if i press no i get to the console
[07:08] <soundray> Hilikus: have you seen the ubotu factoid?
[07:08] <Hilikus> i guess i'll try patching Xorg
[07:08] <MasterShrek> KefZz, look at the /var/log/Xorg.0.log and look for lines that start with (EE)
[07:08] <namiwawa> IndyGunFreak,  i bet it does but not a whole day
[07:08] <bobocopy> Kef: I'll message you.
[07:08] <KefZz> Ty bobo
[07:08] <Hilikus> soundray maybe, but the name doesnt ring a bell
[07:08] <IndyGunFreak> namiwawa: hmmm, don't know...
[07:08] <Filthpig> murkyMurk: hang on, I ran nvidia-settings and enabled it, must restart X!
[07:08] <soundray> Hilikus: you're setting yourself up for pain and failure...
[07:09] <KefZz> and MasterShrek i don`t know how to look at that :p
[07:09] <Filthpig> bRb
[07:09] <namiwawa> IndyGunFreak,  ill use add/remove
[07:09] <Hilikus> soundray by patching?
[07:09] <soundray> Hilikus: watch your private messages
[07:09] <gnomefreak> namiwawa: depends on your net connection but it is big package
[07:09] <soundray> Hilikus: yes
[07:09] <namiwawa> synaptic cant find it
[07:09] <soundray> !tvout > Hilikus
[07:09] <namiwawa> gnomefreak, it doesnt take as long in windows
[07:09] <Some_ux> Also, i made a mistake. when creating the first user in the ubuntu install i gave the user my own name, when in effect, the default user is more of an administrator. So now i want to rename the user to admin
[07:09] <gnomefreak> namiwawa: dont know i stay away from windows, i use it maybe once a month
[07:10] <namiwawa> gnomefreak,  use to use it there thats how I can remember it
[07:10] <Some_ux> users that have private names, imo, should not have sudo privileges
[07:10] <Hilikus> soundray from that website if where i got the idea that i had to patch xorg
[07:10] <Esteth> Ubuntu does not appear to recognise my 965P motherboard's built in ethernet controller. What should i do to try and fix this?
[07:10] <Hilikus> is*
[07:10] <gnomefreak> Some_ux: users dont have admin rights at all unless you give it to them
[07:11] <IndyGunFreak> Esteth: open aterminal and type "lspci" no quotes, and see how its identifying the device,.
[07:11] <branstrom> How do I get a few pixels of padding between icons on my Gnome panel? Like "Applet Padding" at the bottom of this document: http://www.collaborium.org/onsite/jos2000/related/guides/gnome/confglobal.html
[07:11] <gnomefreak> the first user created at install is able to use sudo noone else
[07:11] <soundray> Hilikus: okay, if you feel you've got a good, reliable guide there, go ahead. But it certainly sounds like a Bad Idea(tm)
[07:11] <Some_ux> gnomefreak: when i do: id firstuser , i see that he belongs to admin (this is standart for ubuntu install)
[07:11] <Esteth> IndyGunFreak: I get quite a few devices there. What should i look for? There is only one Network Controller listed, and that's my PCI Wireless card, not the integrated ethernet card
[07:12] <MasterShrek> gnomefreak, if you add the other users to /etc/sudoers thell be able to
[07:12] <gnomefreak> Some_ux: yes becasue he installed ubuntu
[07:12] <osirisx11> hi all, is there a way to tell apt to always install the suggested related packages when i install a package?
[07:12] <gnomefreak> MasterShrek: i know
[07:12] <IndyGunFreak> Esteth: then it would seem that whatever tyupe it is its not recognizing it.
[07:12] <Hilikus> soundray the fact that i do get an image but its garbled, do you think that suggests that the drivers are ok/xorg is ok, but i just need the right settings in xorg.conf?
[07:12] <Some_ux> gnomefreak: i wish him to be renamed to admin
[07:12] <Filthpig> hahahaha
[07:12] <Filthpig> yes
[07:12] <soundray> osirisx11: I think aptitude can do that for you
[07:12] <IndyGunFreak> Esteth: have you considered searching the net for card confirmed to work with Feisty, and buying a cheap $15 ethernet card?
[07:12] <gnomefreak> Some_ux: why your not admin all the time
[07:12] <soundray> Hilikus: yes
[07:12] <ubunturos_> which section under synaptic has the darn GNOME BAKER
[07:12] <Filthpig> although I now have the two screens as different desktops
[07:12] <ubunturos_> which section under synaptic has the GNOME BAKER?
[07:13] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: just search for gnomebaker
[07:13] <howlingmadhowie> Hilikus: changing the settings in xorg.conf shoudl probably always be the first step
[07:13] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: I did, but
[07:13] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: should be under main
[07:13] <ubunturos_> doesn't list it in teh install window
[07:13] <bobocopy> Kef, are you getting my private messages?
[07:13] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: please name the section
[07:13] <osirisx11> like i just did apt-get install festival and at the end it says Suggested packages: festival-gaim Recommended packages: festvox-kallpc16k festival-voice---I'd like it to just take the initiative and install those, too for me. :)
[07:13] <MasterShrek> ubunturos_, it is case-sensitive, u know that right?
[07:13] <soundray> Hilikus: I can't claim much personal experience, though.
[07:13] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: try search for gnome and scroll than
[07:13] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: there's no mane
[07:13] <Some_ux> gnomefreak: best practice, i log a lot to that system remotely, and i dont wish to log to it with full privileges
[07:13] <ubunturos_> main*
[07:13] <Hilikus> howlingmadhowie i tried a lot of settings i found online yesterday and it never worked, but im not too familiar with taht conf file
[07:13] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: its in main
[07:13] <CyberMad> how to turn off the window animation when you minimize or maximize window?
[07:13] <MasterShrek> bobocopy, you both need to have registered nicks
[07:13] <ciddy> pclinuxos is beating ubuntu in distrowatch?
[07:13] <Esteth> IndyGunFreak: I've thought about it, but since this isn't really a critical issue(i want to bridge my ethernet connection to my wireless internet for Xbox live), even spending 15 is too much.
[07:14] <ciddy> when this happen?  <grin>
[07:14] <bobocopy> Wow.  Huge duh on my part.  Thanks, shrek.
[07:14] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: Synaptic doesn't list main
[07:14] <MasterShrek> ciddy, apparently, i dunno why tho, ive never really heard anything good about it
[07:14] <IndyGunFreak> Esteth: i see.. sorry, i really xcan't help.
[07:14] <soundray> osirisx11: why don't you just copy the list and paste it to the end of an apt-get install command?
[07:14] <gnomefreak> Some_ux: well if your logging it to a remote pc set up admin rights on that pc
[07:14] <ubunturos_> MasterShrek: though it lists the package, it doesn't list it in the installation window
[07:14] <osirisx11> soundray: no automatic way?
[07:14] <bobocopy> KefZz: sudo apt-get uninstall ubuntu-desktop
[07:14] <bobocopy> then
[07:14] <soundray> osirisx11: I just told you, aptitude
[07:14] <osirisx11> i really hate when people say "well why don't you just"
[07:14] <bobocopy> KefZz: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:14] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: sorry its in universe now
[07:14] <howlingmadhowie> Hilikus: seeing as i'm just jumping in now in the middle, i really don't know what's not working. if you could bring me up to speed in one line, maybe i could say something more constructive :)
[07:14] <Esteth> IndyGunFreak: Thanks for the help anyway :)
[07:14] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com gutsy/universe Packages
[07:14] <MrPink> hey, I've got a question, to install the newest version of Ubuntu (once it comes out) do I only have to install like a update, or do I have to reinstall the whole system ?
[07:14] <MasterShrek> ubunturos_, open a terminal and type: sudo apt-get install gnomebaker
[07:14] <gnomefreak> MasterShrek: he cant
[07:15] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: universe of ?
[07:15] <gnomefreak> MasterShrek: he doesnt have universe enabled
[07:15] <soundray> osirisx11: some people don't know that you can feed apt-get multiple package names in one go
[07:15] <osirisx11> MrPink: you just change your apt lines to say gutsy and update! thats it, i just did it recently. worked great.
[07:15] <ubunturos_> MasterShrek: I cannot because, I'm helping my friend use synaptic
[07:15] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: !universe > ubunturos_
[07:15] <soundray> osirisx11: too bad you hate being helped here.
[07:15] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: please see the pm ubotu sent you
[07:15] <KefZz> bobocopy: is that going to erase anything from my pc?
[07:15] <Some_ux> gnomefreak: i want to use my login name for a more restricted login. and admin for the sudo stuff
[07:15] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: not yet
[07:15] <MasterShrek> ubunturos_, oh, did you enable extra repositories/
[07:15] <MasterShrek> ?
[07:15] <osirisx11> soundray: yeah i'm aware, i just dont know the related packages until after i get done, just looking for a setting somewhere that can do it.
[07:15] <Hilikus> howlingmadhowie tv-out looks garbled in my ubuntu box, you can see the colors but its all garbled, im using an ati radeon VC
[07:15] <ubunturos_> MasterShrek: gnome-baker requires backports?
[07:15] <howlingmadhowie> osirisx11: cool :) that works? i was scared of trying
[07:16] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: its gnomebaker
[07:16] <kbrooks> how do i know how much memory a program takes?
[07:16] <MasterShrek> ubunturos_, i think its in universe
[07:16] <bobocopy> KefZz: It will uninstall the desktop package, then the second line will reinstall it.
[07:16] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: ok, I'll try again
[07:16] <gnomefreak> kbrooks: top is a good start
[07:16] <MrPink> osirisx11 where do I change the apt lines ?
[07:16] <KefZz> ok im trying it
[07:16] <soundray> howlingmadhowie: it's not recommended prior to the release, though
[07:16] <osirisx11> howlingmadhowie: yeah works great, but they wont talk much about it here as gutsy isnt supported yet, ask in #ubuntu+1
[07:16] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: you have to enable universe repos before you can get it
[07:16] <MasterShrek> kbrooks, gnome-system-monitor
[07:16] <howlingmadhowie> Hilikus: is tv out a connection to a pal or an ntsc tv?
[07:16] <kbrooks> gnomefreak, gives me inaccuracy...
[07:16] <osirisx11> MrPink: see my msg to howlingmadhowie
[07:16] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: the universe is enabled
[07:16] <KefZz> bobocopy: Got this - "E: invalid operation uninstall"
[07:16] <Hilikus> howlingmadhowie ntsc-m
[07:16] <ciddy> i agree
[07:16] <ciddy> pclinuxos is a mandriva fork
[07:16] <ciddy> it sucks :P
[07:16] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: than searching in synaptic for gnomebaker should give it to you
[07:17] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: unles you enabled the backports-universe
[07:17] <MrPink> can't find it, can you paste & Copy ?
[07:17] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: oh, backports :(
[07:17] <howlingmadhowie> Hilikus: if just the colours are garbled, that's a pretty good sign. i've never done anything like that myself, however, so i really can't help :(
[07:17] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: you dont want backports
[07:17] <DayWalker> how do i install .TAR fiels ?
[07:17] <gnomefreak> ubunturos_: you want reg. universe
[07:17] <DayWalker> command ?
[07:17] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: well, my friend has to do it
[07:17] <gnomefreak> DayWalker: you unpack it and read the README and INSTALL files
[07:17] <Hilikus> howlingmadhowie so im trying to run X -configure again just with the TV (when in text mode the tv works fine) but everytime i try to run it, it crashes, and i cant see the stupid reason
[07:17] <bobocopy> KefZz: Sorry, I'm not great with the command stuff.  "sudo apt-get --purge remove ubuntu-desktop"
[07:17] <ubunturos_> gnomefreak: I use the command line and can do it. My friend cannot, currently
[07:18] <KefZz> now it worked...
[07:18] <KefZz> i think :P
[07:18] <DayWalker> i want to setup my VPN connection
[07:18] <MrPink> osirisx11 I can't find your explanation, can you copy & paste it, or just say again ?
[07:18] <shadowspider> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=562980
[07:18] <gnomefreak> bobocopy: that isnt gonna do much of anything but remove the package ubuntu-desktop not everything it installed
[07:18] <shadowspider> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=562980
[07:18] <KefZz> and bobocopy, youre better than me ;P
[07:18] <osirisx11> MrPink:  howlingmadhowie: yeah works great, but they wont talk much about it here as gutsy isnt supported yet, ask in #ubuntu+1
[07:19] <kbrooks> how do i make the laptop charge faster and/or take less battery power?
[07:19] <howlingmadhowie> Hilikus: when you're just in text mode, linux doesn't use the 3d driver. it's strange that X -configure crashes.
[07:19] <pigcom> in what file is all the gnome settings configuations i made saved?
[07:19] <bobocopy> Gnomefreak: I just remember that when I had kef's problem I did that, then reinstalled, and it worked.  Was probably black magic, though.
[07:19] <MrPink> osirisx11 yeah I know that it isn't supported and I will wait to install it until it is officially released... but I just want to know how exactly I can install it once it is released...
[07:19] <kbrooks> how do i make the laptop charge faster and/or take less battery power?
[07:20] <gnomefreak> howlingmadhowie: is he in text mode or did he leave gdm open and just used ctrl+alt+F#
[07:20] <howlingmadhowie> osirisx11: i'll wait untill it's released, i think. though i was planning on trying an rpm based distro on one of my boxes.
[07:20] <ciddy> ubuntu 7.10 should rock
[07:20] <kbrooks> i need to know
[07:20] <kbrooks> please
[07:20] <howlingmadhowie> gnomefreak: good point :)
[07:20] <gnomefreak> !repeat | kbrooks
[07:20] <ubotu> kbrooks: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[07:20] <Hilikus> gnomefreak im stopping gdm and ctrl alt backspace
[07:20] <gnomefreak> mindrape: that doesnt stop it
[07:20] <gnomefreak> Hilikus: that restarts it
[07:20] <finalbeta> how do I start a task from a ssh shell. close the shell, come back later, still have it running?
[07:21] <KefZz> bobocopy: I get an error, "unable to fetch some archives"
[07:21] <howlingmadhowie> Hilikus: i think gdm automatically spawns again if you enter ctrl-alt-backspace. try stopping it with sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[07:21] <Hilikus> i thought if gdm wasnt runnig it wouldnt restart it
[07:21] <gnomefreak> Hilikus: you need to stop gdm not restart it (hence why X is crashing in tty
[07:21] <soundray> kbrooks: the hardware determines how fast it charges, so you'd have to buy a new one.
[07:21] <bobocopy> KefZz: is that it?
[07:21] <bjame1> I've installed Ubuntu 7.04 on my laptop, but the font handling is terrible - does anyone know how to disable the drop shadows on text like desktop icons and window title bars?
[07:21] <kbrooks> soundray, what about battery usage?
[07:21] <matye> how do i find out which agpgart kernel module is keeping the nvidia drivers from using the nvidia agpgart module? there does not seem to be a agpgart module present in lsmod
[07:21] <gnomefreak> Hilikus: define not running?
[07:22] <soundray> kbrooks: to reduce power consumption, install and configure laptop-mode-tools
[07:22] <howlingmadhowie> Hilikus: you can of course check to see if gdm is running (ps aux | grep gdm)
[07:22] <KefZz> bobocopy: WEll theres some more umm, "could not resolve
[07:22] <shadowspider> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=562980
[07:22] <gnomefreak> Hilikus: you would have had to run a command or so to stop it
[07:22] <Hilikus> gnomefreak i stop gdm and then stop X by using ctrl alt back (or so i thought
[07:22] <ciddy> with SCOX down for the count FINALLY

[07:22] <ivo> you my frend
[07:22] <bobocopy> Can you ping archive.ubuntu.com?

[07:24] <gnomefreak> together
[07:24] <soundray> kbrooks: try laptop-mode-tools first, as it's in main. Also search the web for the Battery HOWTO (although that's a bit outdated, I believe)
[07:24] <gnomefreak> Hilikus: crtl+alt+backspace or rebooting will bring X gdm back up
[07:25] <howlingmadhowie> Hilikus: the ttyX are the "virtual terminal devices". when unix was devised, people used to log on to a single unix computer from a number of terminals (basically just keyboards and monitors).
[07:25] <lesshaste>  is there a good tool to detect unencrypted wireless networks?
[07:25] <kbrooks> soundray, um, spinning down the hard drive is not going to save power if you use the laptop a lot everyday to save files, etc.
[07:25] <soundray> kbrooks: finally, have a look at tuxmobil.org for general laptop unix advice, and probably install reports from other people who own the same model.
[07:25] <kbrooks> lesshaste, we cannot help you wiuth that.
[07:26] <bjame1> !info laptop-mode | bjame1
[07:26] <soundray> kbrooks: it's great how you know that my advice won't work before you've even looked properly into the package and its documentation.
[07:27] <nimbo> lesshaste: sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning
[07:27] <kbrooks> soundray, i've heard that spinning down tthe hard drive wastes power when it has to start up again, but okay i will do that
[07:27] <saxin> where do I change the number of desktops in ubuntu?
[07:28] <bobocopy> Right-click on the desktops box
[07:28] <bobocopy> (or boxes), saxin
[07:28] <lesshaste> nimbo: that sounds simple :)
[07:28] <saxin> bobocopy: any other way to do that?
[07:28] <bobocopy> Saxin: Then choose preferences.
[07:28] <bobocopy> Hm...

[07:28] <g[r] eek> Hi - I have IPTables configured in a file (iptables.conf) - I want to call "iptables-restore < iptables.conf" everytime my server boots up automatically - what is the best way to do this?
[07:29] <soundray> kbrooks: spinning down the hard drive isn't the only thing that laptop-mode-tools do. And, yes, especially if your computer has a 2.5in drive, spinning it does save power for most laptop-typical applications. Whether it works for you, you'll have to work out for yourself.
[07:29] <lesshaste> nimbo: there's an amazing tool for windows that shows something like a dart board which the wireless networks move about dynamically depending on the signal strength
[07:29] <erUSUL> g[r] eek: use /etc/rc.local or make a custom script in /etc/init.d/ then add that to the boot process with update-rc.d
[07:30] <bobocopy> Saxin, are you looking for a way to do it from the command line?
[07:30] <soundray> *spinning it DOWN
[07:30] <nekisia> hi there someone from greece?
[07:30] <tiagoboldt> Hi, need help installing an usb wireless receiver from SMC, i've installed the driver (with ndiswrapper) but it only works if I plug it in after booting. I guess there's an module that's not letting it work.. any ideas?
[07:30] <howlingmadhowie> kbrooks: it's a pretty difficult decision, when to spin down the harddrive. if the operating system could know that the harddrive wasn't going to be used for a number of minutes, then it would make sense. one just needs to find a good algorithm

[07:31] <alcoholic> I have installed ubuntu working fine just wanted to know how to enable hibernate in GUI
[07:31] <alcoholic> i.e. gnome
[07:31] <saxin> I think it may have something with compiz-fusion to do?
[07:31] <g[r] eek> erUSUL: Thank you.
[07:31] <soundray> babo: grep 'searchstring' files
[07:31] <erUSUL> g[r] eek: no problem
[07:32] <soundray> babo: note the single quotes - they should make it work
[07:32] <nimbo> lesshaste: thats the same stuff, but easier, because no encryption ... eh?
[07:32] <alcoholic> ??
[07:32] <bobocopy> Saxin: What do you mean "you get so many"?
[07:32] <babo> soundray: you what ?

[07:32] <xen_> lol
[07:32] <xen_> sorry

[07:34] <randee> what's the command line program to help you switch window managers?
[07:34] <xen_> i just did that
[07:34] <xen_> thats what my first paste was lol
[07:34] <gnomefreak> xen_: no it wasnt
[07:34] <gnomefreak> xen_: you used apt-get
[07:34] <gnomefreak> i said use aptitude
[07:34] <xen_> ahhh ok
[07:34] <gnomefreak> xen_: you might be missing the src repos
[07:34] <xen_> wait... whats the difference?
[07:35] <jnuzzo> randee: just make a text file in your home dir named .Xsession and put the start script / location to the window managers binary
[07:35] <gnomefreak> aptitude handles dependencies differently
[07:35] <gnomefreak> xen_: make sure you enabled all src repos in sources.list
[07:35] <xen_> hmm it wants to downgrade me because of linux-headers-2.6.22-12-generic
[07:35] <xen_> yup
[07:35] <randee> jnuzzo, i just remember using a command-line program to do it
[07:35] <howlingmadhowie> randee: if you haven't got automatic login switched on, you'll be able to select from the available window managers on the login screen
[07:35] <gnomefreak> yes
[07:35] <Gedeon> hola?
[07:35] <gnomefreak> xen_: you shouldnt have that kernel on there

[07:36] <g[r] eek> erUSUL: Which is best practise: adding "iptables-restore < iptables.conf" to rc.local (having already iptables-saved a file with iptables setting called iptables.conf), or adding the actual "iptables -t nat -A..." commands to rc.local?

[07:36] <Stephen> hello?
[07:37] <bazhang> hi.
[07:37] <Stephen> hi
[07:37] <Hilikus> is there a way to generate a xorg.conf assisted by a wizard? or something that let me test the setttings ?
[07:37] <nekisia> can we open a window just for us cause i m confused with all this messages?
[07:37] <murlidhar> err i want  to install ubuntu on my friends pc  and he doesn't have an internet connection . Is there any way to install the binary packages from my pc????
[07:37] <Gedeon> man /j
[07:37] <Gedeon> ummmmmmmmm
[07:37] <LjL> Hilikus: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

[07:37] <LjL> Gedeon: /join
[07:37] <LjL>  /j also works on some clients
[07:38] <gnomefreak> Sp4rKy: i suggest just asking your question since neither of us really want 1000+ poeple to say hi at once
[07:38] <murlidhar> i heard something about aptoncd or aptgetcd which does this
[07:38] <Stephen> gah
[07:38] <jnuzzo> hey guys, I'm having trouble setting up a network printer, its simply not detecting it, I have detect network printers checked on the client machine and share printers on the server machine any other steps I should take?
[07:38] <MikeGraham> Gedeon: The full command is /join. Use it like, ``/join #channelname''.
[07:38] <Hilikus> LjL can i run that from a console?
[07:38] <jrib> nekisia: just pose your question here to the channel.  Then if someone knows the answer, they will respond.  Just make sure you prefix what you say to someone with their name so that the hilight works
[07:38] <LjL> Hilikus: sure
[07:38] <murlidhar> am i correct? if i am can u guide me the correct way to do it?
[07:38] <Gedeon> now it work! i havent the #
[07:38] <dgjones> murlidhar, could you not just download the livecd and burn it to a cd and install from that?
[07:39] <g[r] eek> erUSUL: Which is best practise: adding "iptables-restore < iptables.conf" to rc.local (having already iptables-saved a file with iptables setting called iptables.conf), or adding the actual "iptables -t nat -A..." commands to rc.local?
[07:39] <usser> murlidhar: this guide might be of help http://www.howtoforge.com/dvd_images_of_ubuntu_repositories
[07:39] <Stephen> hey. does anyone think they can help me get ubuntu to insatll?
[07:39] <gnomefreak> murlidhar: what are you tring to upgrade from > to?
[07:39] <nekisia> ok then,i cant built the binutils-2.18
[07:39] <Stephen> I downloaded the the download. and burned it to a disk as slow as possible but it wont boot load
[07:39] <gnomefreak> Stephen: download the ISo and bur it to cd than boot from the cd
[07:40] <howlingmadhowie> where's the problem, stephen? how far does it get?
[07:40] <murlidhar> well i do not want download all the applications again for my friends pc.
[07:40] <Stephen> It doesnt thats the thing
[07:40] <gnomefreak> Stephen: than the md5sums are not right or a bad burn
[07:40] <jrib> Stephen: did you "burn as image"?
[07:40] <soundray> babo: can you rephrase your problem for me pls?
[07:40] <Stephen> i used the basic windows burning program
[07:40] <jrib> !burn > Stephen (read the private message from ubotu)
[07:40] <gnomefreak> Stephen: you have to burn it as image not as file
[07:40] <deepfreez> How i can resolved this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39039/ ?
[07:40] <usser> murlidhar: then aptoncd
[07:40] <jrib> Stephen: the link ubotu gave you, has step by step instructions on how to burn it on windows.  Can you try those?
[07:41] <murlidhar> usser: any user guide?
[07:41] <Stephen> I did most of them. but no luck =\ ill re read them just incase i missed somthing
[07:41] <saxin> how do I enable an samba user?
[07:42] <usser> murlidhar: its pretty straightforward just install it and then u'll have a nice gui that lets u copy your packages to a dvd
[07:42] <babo> soundray: I need to get the string .. "Villager The" from the string "rel='bppost'>Villager The</a>"
[07:42] <babo> using bash

[07:43] <soundray> babo: not exactly, but that's the principle I'd try.
[07:43] <murlidhar> usser: so will it automatically install all the applications???
[07:43] <Stephen> can i burn the CD in a NON windows computer? such as my current mepis PC?
[07:43] <erUSUL> g[r] eek: i think that the actual iptables commands are more usual
[07:44] <gnomefreak> astate: why do you have the differnet verseion? who built it where did you get it from
[07:44] <soundray> babo: alternatively, if you have several of those in a file, do 'cat file | tr "<" "\n" | tr ">" "\n"' and further filter the output for what you're looking for.
[07:44] <bazhang> stephen: yes.
[07:44] <patrick__> techknow
[07:44] <usser> murlidhar: it backs up your packages first and then on other comp u just need to install aptoncd and restore from cd
[07:44] <gnomefreak> astate: i know not from repos since we dont use .# on official packages
[07:44] <stueycaster> I'm using ubuntu 7.04 for the first time right now.
[07:44] <Stephen> bazhang, do you know what program i should probably use?
[07:44] <techknow> does anyone know if beryl & compiz are still maintained?
[07:44] <gnomefreak> astate: aptitude install <packagename> should fix it or apt-get -f install
[07:44] <terracon> Stephen, k3b
[07:44] <techknow> I heard someone saying that on or the other wasnt
[07:44] <babo> soundray:  thanks
[07:44] <bazhang> do you see gnomebaker?
[07:45] <stueycaster> I'll probably be in here often trying to learn to use it
[07:45] <techknow> and that there was another project that replaced it?
[07:45] <tretle> Can anyone point me towards getting an old wintv analog tv card running in ubuntu?
[07:45] <murlidhar> usser: ah i see so it can also be used as a restore disk.

[07:45] <techknow> ok
[07:45] <usser> murlidhar: but there's always but, )) since your friends comp is different from yours some of the apps may be your comp specific, so after restore u may want to get rid of some junk that your friend dont need

[07:50] <Stephen> im working on that now though
[07:50] <Stephen> so i dont know if the versions are diffrent
[07:50] <asoka> Is there an app that will repartition non-destructively.. ie, without making me reinstall?
[07:51] <erUSUL> !envy | techknow
[07:51] <ubotu> techknow: 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!
[07:51] <bazhang> is Mepis KDE?
[07:51] <Stephen> yes
[07:51] <soundray> asoka: gparted
[07:51] <asoka> Thanks.
[07:51] <Stephen> My Gparted is broken =\ wont load XD
[07:51] <LuCypher> hi, I can't get java plugin working on amd64
[07:51] <Milburr> <--- Was disconnected, not sure if someone answered my question...
[07:51] <soundray> asoka: best to run it from a live CD
[07:51] <erUSUL> Stephen: parted from command line?
[07:51] <jrib> LuCypher: sun does not have a java plugin for 64bit
[07:51] <soundray> Milburr: repeat your question pls
[07:51] <LuCypher> I've tried to install ia32-sun
[07:52] <jrib> !flash64 > LuCypher (read the private message from ubotu)
[07:52] <Stephen> erUSUL, if i open the Gparted program it wont ever load. just keeps scanning
[07:52] <astate> gnomefreak: I got it through apt-get...I'm on Feisty, and I set up pinning for Gutsy, but the only thing I've installed from gutsy is the latest version of rails
[07:52] <soundray> Stephen: best to run gparted from a live CD
[07:52] <ShakaGoldSaint> anyone knows where i  can gt a decent last-exit package for feisty?, the one in main crashes when I try to select a different station, and the one I got from saint google with the save patch only plays a track for like 2 seconds and then mutes :(
[07:52] <bjame1> seeing as how it's gone quite, I'm going to repeat my original question (apologies for those who may have previously read it)
[07:52] <bazhang> Gutsy is amazing...
[07:52] <astate> I've tried apt-get -f install already, and it didn't fix it
[07:52] <xsystemx> Anyone know of a floppy utility that would help me simulate a PXE rom and let me install OS via RIS?
[07:52] <gnomefreak> astate: that is a very good way to break your system and is not supported official
[07:52] <Stephen> ok
[07:52] <Stephen> well ima reboot.
[07:52] <Milburr> Ok, well im about to install ubuntu/kubuntu. I'm wondering whether KDE or Gnome is better/more advanced for customizing (i.e login screen, desktop look etc) and wheter one or the other is better to use iwth beryl/compiz. Thanks
[07:52] <astate> and apt-get install php-common tells me its already installed
[07:52] <Stephen> my burning cd rom is turned off for some reason
[07:53] <Stephen> be back moment
[07:53] <bjame1> does anyone know how to turn off text drop shadows?
[07:53] <astate> well I had to have the latest version of rails, but I'm positive the only thing that came from Gutsy was rails-1.2.3-2 (or something close to that)
[07:53] <soundray> bjame1: in what application?
[07:53] <petru> hello guys? so, after i installed xorg and xgl drivers for my ati x1300 card, it seems that i dont have anymore the restart and shutdown options ( icons). what to do to get them back?
[07:53] <bazhang> Milburr: that's a loaded question; depends on which theme you prefer, mostly. KDE is shinier, no question.
[07:53] <kbrooks> um, ok, i want firefox to use much less memory and start up faster.
[07:54] <soundray> Milburr: KDE is also more configurable. Gnome tends to be more prescriptive
[07:54] <Milburr> bazhang: Im interested in doing some major customization to the login screen and desktop look.
[07:54] <astate> I installed webmin using its installer, but I installed php, apache, mysql and all of that from the ubuntu repository first
[07:54] <patrick__> w
[07:54] <vanchu> good morning, and heres the stupied question of the day ... how do you move dll files with wine ?
[07:54] <Milburr> soundray: thx
[07:54] <LuCypher> jrib : I've thought that ia32-sun-java could work with firefox64
[07:54] <saxin> vanchu: good morning? :P
[07:54] <astate> using a tutorial "perfect ubuntu setup" on howtoforge
[07:54] <kbrooks> um, ok, i want firefox to use much less memory and start up faster. what do i do?
[07:54] <LuCypher> jrib : so I have to install firefox32
[07:54] <petru> hello guys? so, after i installed xorg and xgl drivers for my ati x1300 card, it seems that i dont have anymore the restart and shutdown options ( icons). what to do to get them back?
[07:54] <wolfsong> I've lost root pe4rmissions to /mnt...any ideas
[07:54] <vanchu> its the morning for me
[07:54] <techknow> what was the link to install compiz-fusion again anyone?
[07:54] <vanchu> lol
[07:55] <Milburr> Also, does kde or gnome allow  there to be video in the background of the login screen?
[07:55] <soundray> kbrooks: first of all, you don't repeat yourself within a minute if you don't get an immediate reply
[07:55] <saxin> I'm going to bed in a few hours
[07:55] <vanchu> I work nights so I just woke up
[07:55] <jrib> LuCypher: yes, as far as I know.  Or, you can use blackdown java which has a 64bit pluugin but it's something like java 1.4.2
[07:55] <bazhang> techknow: just get gutsy
[07:55] <techknow> ok...
[07:55] <techknow> will an update through apt do it?
[07:56] <jrib> LuCypher: look at the date on http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4802695 .  It's kind of ridiculous
[07:56] <bazhang> it's enabled by default; I think you can do a dist-upgrade.
[07:56] <soundray> Milburr: you can run any application on the login screen, but it can be hard to set up and a security nightmare.
[07:56] <hacker> hhhhfff
[07:56] <hacker> gbggdsghed
[07:56] <hacker> hdh
[07:57] <soundray> Milburr: again, I would expect this to be a bit easier with KDE's kdm than gnome's gdm.
[07:57] <techknow> bazhang: will an apt update do the same?
[07:57] <LuCypher> jrib : ahahahah
[07:57] <saxin> how can I reinstall grub?
[07:57] <bazhang> techknow: I believe it's call a dist-upgrade; I would just back up my files and do a clean install--this is still a beta, though.
[07:58] <techknow> I'll wait I think
[07:58] <LuCypher> jrib : already tried 1.4 blackdown and gcj version, but doesn't works with the applet I want to use
[07:58] <soundray> kbrooks: look into swiftfox
[07:58] <jrib> LuCypher: I'd use the 32bit firefox then
[07:58] <kbrooks> soundray, i don't trust that program
[07:58] <astate> gnomefreak: I did an apt-get remove php5-common, and then reinstalled all of the packages it removed, and it seems to be working
[07:58] <LuCypher> jrib : are you on amd64?
[07:58] <jrib> LuCypher: I am
[07:59] <LuCypher> jrib : is there some benefits for desktop everyday use?
[07:59] <Stephen> ok
[07:59] <bazhang> techknow: probably a wise choice--the final is out in just a couple weeks anyway.
[07:59] <Stephen> Who was helping me to learn how to burn a copy of Ubuntu correctly?
[07:59] <techknow> yeah
[07:59] <bazhang> I was
[07:59] <Stephen> ah yes
[07:59] <jrib> LuCypher: nope, not unless you have >4gb of ram
[08:00] <techknow> ahh
[08:00] <bazhang> you're in Mepis, right?
[08:00] <Stephen> ok. i have a copy of all the files. thats my origional failed try
[08:00] <Stephen> yes
[08:00] <Orfeous> what is required to get realtime working on ubuntu gutsy?
[08:00] <Stephen> K3b is what i think im supposed to use
[08:00] <bazhang> K3b is it.
[08:00] <bazhang> are you making an ISO disk, or a data disk, or other?
[08:01] <LuCypher> jrib : Well... I think I'll reboot... I have 32bit on other partition and 2G of RAM...
[08:01] <Stephen> ISO
[08:01] <Stephen> well. attempting
[08:01] <magdalen0> Hi, people, i wanna know how to make this the default $PS1, does you know how? $PS1=${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}"\[\033[01;32m\] \u@\h \[\033[01;34m\] \W \$ \[\033\] "
[08:01] <Stephen> I want to install Ubuntu
[08:01] <Stephen> but i fail every time =\
[08:02] <NixMan> what are the dependencies for install .jar files? i ran "sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin", and then "java -jar /path/to/.jar"
[08:02] <bazhang> burning an ISO can be tricky; you need to set the burn speed less than the Max.
[08:02] <Orfeous> Stephen: when does it fail?
[08:02] <Stephen> yes
[08:02] <saxin> how can I reinstall grub?
[08:02] <Orfeous> bazhang: i have always burned my isos on max speed no problems here.
[08:02] <Stephen> Orfeous, well the past times i burned a CD i didnt know to slow the burn speed down. and also I didnt know how to set it to burn ISO
[08:03] <erUSUL> !grub | saxin
[08:03] <ubotu> saxin: 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
[08:03] <LuCypher> jrib : thanks bye...
[08:03] <Orfeous> Stephen: you dont need to set the speed down.. just use a good cd quality or a DVD
[08:03] <Stephen> Orfeous, but the one i have right now doesnt even boot. it notices theres a CD but wont boot
[08:03] <Orfeous> it can be a broken iso also. happend to me sometimes
[08:03] <NixMan> how can i install .jar files?
[08:03] <Stephen> well this is the one I downloaded from the Ubuntu site
[08:03] <jack|ass> If I want to update to the 7.10 beta, how do I tell apt or update manager?
[08:04] <Orfeous> Stephen: have you checked your bios settings?
[08:04] <Stephen> Ye
[08:04] <Stephen> yes
[08:04] <Stephen> Orfeous, i set them to check both cd drives before any hard drives
[08:04] <Stephen> and it is set to auto boot from disk if possible
[08:04] <yurimxpxman> I have an ogg flac file I created with VLC. I'm trying to transcode it, but every time I do, I get gibberish. VLC can play it fine, I just can't convert it to anything. Amarok can't play it.
[08:04] <Orfeous> ok, try to boot a windows cd or something.
[08:04] <bazhang> jacklass: you need to do a dist-upgrade
[08:04] <Orfeous> Stephen: try to disable to boot from hdd..
[08:04] <jrib> LuCypher: no problem
[08:05] <Stephen> its not my bios
[08:05] <Stephen> its the disk
[08:05] <Stephen> i can put in my linux mepis disk. and it boots straight from it
[08:05] <jack|ass> bazhang: set the sources to be gutsy in sources.list and do it?  Been awhile since I've tried that. :)
[08:06] <Stephen> gah. anyone know where to find K3b
[08:06] <Stephen> i cant find the stupid file
[08:06] <bazhang> I suspect that it's just a bad burn, Stephen; I can't tell you how many coasters I created burning ISOs..
[08:06] <Stephen> bazhang, lol. that seems like a good use for them =[
[08:06] <PrMoriarty> hello
[08:06] <LuCypher> jack|ass : sudo update-manager -c -d
[08:07] <PrMoriarty> what is the best software for using my cdrecorder?
[08:07] <jack|ass> LuCypher: thanks.
[08:07] <PrMoriarty> i want to burn an iso
[08:07] <bazhang> if it's not installed then you can do so.
[08:07] <bazhang> gnomebaker, PrMoriarty.
[08:07] <Stephen> So. how do i go about finding K3b and how do i burn it into an ISO?
[08:08] <LuCypher> jack|ass : remove custom repository first
[08:08] <Orfeous> Stephen: try another iso then!
[08:08] <LuCypher> *repositories
[08:08] <paonia> Why is every installation different - I got apache2 and mysql working - where did my php5 go?
[08:08] <Orfeous> Stephen: why not use the DVD-iso?
[08:08] <jack|ass> LuCypher: update-manager uses apt/sources.list and not some side one, correct?
[08:08] <bazhang> well K3b is the program that allows for you to burn ISO files, alternately, you can right click on the ISO file, and it says open with cd burner, or some such.
[08:08] <bazhang> then it will burn the ISO for you automatically.
[08:09] <bazhang> Just have to be patient, you can and will get it done.
[08:09] <LuCypher> jack|ass :  -d, --devel-release  = check for a developement release upgrade
[08:09] <linuxwarrior> hi !
[08:09] <bazhang> hi
[08:09] <Stephen> because i dont want to buy it or have it sent to me =\
[08:09] <jack|ass> LuCypher: should I update all the feisty packages before updating to gutsy?  Or does it matter?
[08:09] <paonia> Disclaimer: Everything is Theory "Well, it works in my head, I just can't put it into a substantive form"
[08:10] <linuxwarrior> someone have any idea when classrooms come back this year...
[08:10] <gnomefreak> linuxwarrior: ask in #ubuntu-nun
[08:10] <LuCypher> jack|ass : think it's better to update feisty packages first
[08:10] <jack|ass> LuCypher: fair enough.
[08:11] <bazhang> is there an easy way to put someone's name at the beginningof the message, other than typing it?
[08:11] <tritoch> like think it?
[08:11] <linuxwarrior> gnomefreak: ok hope someone will answer...
[08:11] <bazhang> haha
[08:11] <tritoch> bazhang: type the first 3 or so letters, then hit 'tab'
[08:11] <bazhang> thanks!
[08:12] <bazhang> tritoch: thanks!
[08:12] <MasterShrek> bazhang, that tab thing works on your command line too
[08:12] <tritoch> still working on the 'system handler input thought'
[08:12] <bazhang> MasterShrek: thanks!
[08:12] <MasterShrek> for just about anything, regular commands, apt-get, almost everything
[08:13] <bazhang> MasterShrek: I had no idea. Cheers!
[08:13] <Rabbitbunny> So, I need access to the QQ IM protocol, I'm using 6.10LTS with Gaim. I've found the plugin I need but am totally lost as to where to put it, Hints?
[08:13] <MasterShrek> =)
[08:13] <i> MAOOO
[08:14] <naranha> is the agpgart module compiled into the kernel in gutsy? (that makes it hard to use nvidia drivers)
[08:14] <MasterShrek> Rabbitbunny, ~/.gaim   is there a plugins directory in there? im using pidgin so i dont know
[08:15] <bazhang> MasterShrek: aren't they the same?
[08:15] <bruenig> they have different config directories
[08:15] <bazhang> bruenig: thanks!
[08:15] <bruenig> you're welcome!
[08:16] <Rabbitbunny> MasterShrek: Looking
[08:17] <biomega> hi
[08:17] <RasqualTwilight> hello, my uim toolbar is empty after, it seems, I ran the update manager installed something earlier. Is there any way I can have logs of what was installed?
[08:17] <biomega> i think that in /var/log/apt must be something
[08:17] <MasterShrek> Rabbitbunny, i would say: /usr/lib/gaim
[08:17] <linuxwarrior> gnomefreak: no answer on classroom channel and new user netwok channel maybe you know the response :D
[08:17] <saxin> I got brub installed, but I want to reinstall it. How can I do that?
[08:18] <saxin> grub
[08:18] <MasterShrek> !grub
[08:18] <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
[08:18] <biomega> hey
[08:18] <gnomefreak> linuxwarrior: try thier mailing list. its offtopic for this channel and no i left nun and classroom a while ago
[08:18] <saxin> I have not lost the grub, I just want to reinstall it.
[08:18] <biomega> i need help configuring a web cam "Icecam" in ubuntu
[08:18] <MasterShrek> saxin, i think u can figure it out by looking at that tho
[08:19] <MasterShrek> saxin, why reinstall it?
[08:19] <saxin> it wont recognise my xp installation
[08:19] <MasterShrek> saxin, just add it to /boot/grub/menu.list
[08:19] <linuxwarrior> gnomefreak: its offtopic where should I ask lol
[08:19] <saxin> MasterShrek: ok.. let me check
[08:20] <MasterShrek> saxin, theres a sample xp entry in that file too, just copy it and paste it at the bottom, then remove the #'s
[08:20] <bruenig> linuxwarrior, he just said their mailing list...
[08:20] <PrMoriarty> cd recorder how can i get?
[08:20] <gnomefreak> linuxwarrior: i gave you that answer you can try -offtpic but none of the nun or classroom group is in there talking
[08:21] <RasqualTwilight> biomega: thanks, it was dpkg.log
[08:21] <linuxwarrior> gnomefreak: ha ok thks
[08:22] <Orfeous> any suggestion getting realtime working?
[08:22] <Orfeous> i have installed realtime-lsm and the realtime-kernel
[08:23] <Orfeous> but when i run the realtime script in /etc/init.d/ i got "Loading Realtime Linux Security Module: not found"
[08:24] <_imran_> can anyone tell me how to dpkg an entire folder of .deb files
[08:25] <Orfeous> _imran_: dpkg -i *.deb
[08:25] <Rabbitbunny> MasterShrek: Ah, /usr/lib/gaim/ Sneaky little bums. found them with 'locate *.so | grep gaim'
[08:25] <_imran_> Orfeous, all it says is dpkg: error processing *.deb (--install):
[08:25] <_imran_>  cannot access archive: No such file or directory
[08:25] <_imran_> Errors were encountered while processing: *.deb
[08:26] <MasterShrek> Rabbitbunny, i told u that like 30 lines ago =P
[08:26] <Orfeous> _imran_: strange..
[08:26] <Orfeous> _imran_: maybe some packages are depending on eachother
[08:26] <kbrooks> Orfeous, no..
[08:26] <rukuartic> Any samba gurus in here? I have a rather interesting samba question... It appears that there are two usernames, and three passwords for Samba. linux login/password, samba password, and windows login/password... do all the passwords need to be the same?
[08:26] <kbrooks> Orfeous, read the error
[08:26] <Rabbitbunny> MasterShrek: i know... but they were still sneaky, plus it could have been /usr/local/lib/...
[08:27] <_imran_> Orfeous, do i need to put in a directory
[08:27] <kbrooks> Orfeous, *.deb is not expanded. why? because he's not in a directory. and he hasn't specified a directory.
[08:27] <Orfeous> _imran_: try :) i have done this many times and works for me without errors
[08:28] <_imran_> Orfeous, do i need to be a root?
[08:28] <Orfeous> _imran_: sometimes i downlad deb-packages in my homedir.. and then install them via "dpkg -i *.deb"
[08:28] <Orfeous> _imran_: yes..
[08:28] <kbrooks> Orfeous, it has worked for you because you have cded to the directory, or are already there
[08:28] <Orfeous> _imran_: sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[08:29] <Orfeous> kbrooks: stop telling me.. i allready know all stuff
[08:29] <kbrooks> Orfeous, then teach _imran_ this stuff i'm teaching you.
[08:29] <aadil> hehe
[08:29] <DrakNin1> anyone know how i can make it fullscreen game:freeciv/?
[08:30] <Orfeous> _imran_: put the deb-files in a directory
[08:30] <_imran_> Orfeous, doesnt work i dont know why?
[08:30] <Jordan__> Hello, is there a web-only interface low-recource bittorrent client?
[08:30] <Orfeous> _imran_: cd into that directory and use "sudo dpkg -i *.deb"
[08:30] <kbrooks> _imran_, it works - cd into that directory
[08:30] <Garrett> Hey guys, can someone help me out?
[08:31] <Orfeous> _imran_: mkdir stuff; mv *.deb stuff; cd stuff; sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[08:31] <Garrett> This is the second time I have reinstalled Ubuntu Feisty, and after the install my dvdrw no longer works...anyone have any ideas?
[08:31] <_imran_> Orfeous, what does that mean
[08:31] <MasterShrek> lol wine sucks, i opened a program like 20 minutes ago, it finally popped up now
[08:31] <linuxwarrior> Garrett: go on windows ;)
[08:32] <Garrett> linuxwarrior: Ha, right. :P
[08:32] <mehmet> hi
[08:32] <_imran_> MasterShrek, wine does suck, when i try to open a .exe file with wine it just gives me a page long error report
[08:32] <Orfeous> _imran_: it creates a directory called stuff then move the deb-files into that stuff directory and then open the stuff directory and installs the deb packages
[08:32] <Orfeous> MasterShrek: wine isnt fast for me either :D
[08:33] <mehmet> ne bu ya
[08:33] <MasterShrek> things run ok once they are open, it just takes forever to get a window up
[08:34] <Garrett> Linuxwarrior: Isnt there something I can do?
[08:34] <JDStone> how would I go about upgrading to Gutsy?
[08:34] <Orfeous> i am wondering how i can run the games that i was running on windows.
[08:34] <Asathoor> hi - does anybody here know what this means: force_addr=0xaddr
[08:34] <erUSUL> !upgrade | JDStone
[08:34] <ubotu> JDStone: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:34] <Orfeous> i got some truck games that i want to play in ubuntu.
[08:34] <JDStone> thank you
[08:34] <Asathoor> force_addr=0xaddr - it is a message when I boot
[08:34] <erUSUL> Asathoor: context?
[08:35] <Asathoor> erUSUL >> when boot the message is: upgrade BIOS or force_addr=0xaddr
[08:35] <erUSUL> Asathoor: it seems a parameter to some module that takes a memory address (that are of the form 0x00whatever)
[08:35] <guilinfd> hi,
[08:35] <Asathoor> ok, but how do I force_addr=0xaddr?
[08:36] <erUSUL> Asathoor: i got it too XD is an uli chipset?

[08:36] <rukuartic> its old.
[08:37] <erUSUL> Asathoor: from my dmesg
[08:37] <rukuartic> gonna be replaced with 7.10 shortly
[08:37] <DeathMan|> 1. he dont recognize cd roms so i cant install
[08:37] <Asathoor> ok
[08:37] <DeathMan|> and i mean 7.05
[08:37] <DeathMan|> and

[08:40] <DeathMan|> ()7.04 is official)

[08:40] <DeathMan|> lemme ask then
[08:40] <rukuartic> You can't blame us for 3rd party software being bad
[08:40] <DoYouKnow> hi
[08:40] <DoYouKnow> how do I enable direct rendering in xgl?
[08:40] <DeathMan|> is there any new ubuntu that have polish language ??
[08:41] <rukuartic> darlok: Its comming in 7.10, but you might be able to do something in the shell
[08:41] <Asathoor> hi
[08:41] <DoYouKnow> I have followed the instruction on the net on how to get xgl+compiz fusion working in ubuntu to the tee
[08:41] <rukuartic> DeathMan|: 7.04 should have the polish language in it.
[08:41] <gnomefreak> Asathoor: use pastebin next time please
[08:41] <Asathoor> sorry for the flood...
[08:41] <darlok> rukuartic: Will Kubuntu 7.10 offer that feature as well, then?

[08:42] <TtyS2> hi
[08:42] <DoYouKnow> nope
[08:42] <Garrett> Can anyone help me with this cdrom issue?
[08:42] <erUSUL> Asathoor: as i said before the short answer is that the msgs are harmless
[08:42] <rukuartic> DeathMan|: Well, allow me to suggest abiword instead of openoffice.
[08:42] <rukuartic> DeathMan|: What font errors are you talking about?
[08:42] <TtyS2> what prog can i use in ubuntu to read .pub files?
[08:42] <ya5> What is the release date for Gutsy Gibbon? I don't want to install 7.06 only to upgrade days later.
[08:42] <DoYouKnow> darlok: nope. but do you have any ideas what my problem can be? direct rendering is working fine in xorg-server, but not xgl
[08:42] <darlok> If I can't login to another user's X system, can I see what processes they're running?

[08:43] <DeathMan|> ruku well but that office is in bundle :/ its installing with linux and im greenie so i dunno how and dont want to manually install packages
[08:43] <MasterShrek> darlok, can u ssh to it?
[08:43] <Asathoor> erUSUL >> ok, I'll leave it there then. Thanx for your answer - you are the first person who knew about it. Google was really no help...
[08:43] <darlok> DoYouKnow: Well, first question (sorry if I already missed your answer).. what card/driver are you running?
[08:43] <darlok> MasterShrek: Probably, but I don't know how ;)
[08:43] <DoYouKnow> Radeon Xpress 200M
[08:43] <DoYouKnow> I already have the drivers installed
[08:43] <TtyS2> what linux prog is equal to microsoft publisher
[08:44] <darlok> DoYouKnow: Yeah, which drivers?  The open drivers, or restricted?
[08:44] <erUSUL> Asathoor: well uli chipsets are not that common and since the nvidia bought out more unlikely
[08:44] <MasterShrek> ssh x.x.x.x
[08:44] <DoYouKnow> restricted

[08:44] <rukuartic> DeathMan|: Its easy!
[08:44] <DeathMan|> eh eh
[08:44] <darlok> TtyS2: There isn't one... closest is Scribus, but I find it to be the most unintuitive piece of software I've ever used...
[08:44] <DeathMan|> for me not
[08:44] <rukuartic> DeathMan|: Press alt+f2 and type "gksudo synaptic"
[08:44] <rukuartic> DeathMan|: That program is meant to make installing packages easy
[08:44] <DeathMan|> even installing in text mode makes me sick
[08:45] <TtyS2> Darlok i need a prog in linux that can open publisher files, extension is pub
[08:45] <rukuartic> DeathMan|: Or it can be done from the console (sudo apt-get install abiword)
[08:45] <erUSUL> Asathoor: it's an Asrock mobo ?
[08:45] <darlok> TtyS2: Ahh... you MAY be able to do that with Scribus, but I don
[08:45] <DeathMan|> ruku yes but that will instal abiword too but nt delete office so its useless
[08:45] <rukuartic> TtyS2: Hum... thats propriatary Microsoft formats... And rather uncommon IMHO. I'm not sure if there's anything to open it.
[08:45] <darlok> TtyS2: I don't think so.  Last I heard, there was no way to do ti.
[08:45] <uhno> errr
[08:45] <DeathMan|> just tell someone to fix that dam fonts
[08:45] <uhno> i have a problem
[08:45] <uhno> i think i screwed up my boot grub
[08:46] <darlok> !ask | uhno
[08:46] <ubotu> uhno: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:46] <rukuartic> DeathMan|: Watch your language please.
[08:46] <DeathMan|> ruku im mad
[08:46] <lavender_dream> Hello everyone, I have a problem with tab-browsing with Opera 9.23 (latest) with Flash (9, also latest, installed system wide) the video/audio keep skipping when I start tab-browsing, has anyone else had this similar problem?
[08:46] <TtyS2> no wonder i stick linux, scribus dosnt support it, i tested that already
[08:46] <darlok> DeathMan|: Even misspelled swearing isn't allowed here ;)
[08:46] <dgjones> TtyS2, I looked for an app that would open .pub file under linux about 6 months ago, there wasn't anything at that point.  The best I could find was a website that took a .pub file and converted it to a pdf file
[08:46] <rukuartic> Deathman|: Well thats not the way to express your anger, especially here.
[08:46] <DeathMan|> i did fight with text installer and paritions for half hour then it did install and i have problems with office font
[08:46] <uhno> At boot up, when I try to start my ubuntu partition I get the error "Cannot mount selected partition"
[08:46] <DeathMan|> moreover i cant install compiz
[08:46] <DoYouKnow> darlok: I am using the restricted drivers
[08:46] <rukuartic> DeathMan|: Explain to me what the "font problems" are again
[08:46] <DeathMan|> its installed but linux dont see it
[08:46] <TtyS2> dgjones interesting, recall the url?
[08:47] <darlok> DoYouKnow: And how are you testing if acceleration is working or not?
[08:47] <DeathMan|> ruku its hard to example now im on xp
[08:47] <dgjones> TtyS2, give me a min, i'll see if i can find it again
[08:47] <TtyS2> sure
[08:47] <DeathMan|> but it takes place when installing software or configuring it
[08:47] <DeathMan|> when you install
[08:47] <Maki_> C.....
[08:47] <DeathMan|> there is erron on writing to cache
[08:47] <Maki_> Slagano oslobodime
[08:47] <darlok> DeathMan|: What package are you trying to install?  msscorefonts?
[08:47] <Maki_> SE NUDAM Z A PARI
[08:47] <DeathMan|> and i see at the left that its from open office/fonts/blablabla
[08:48] <Maki_> I SUM OSD SKOPJEA PO PO
[08:48] <DeathMan|> dark anything
[08:48] <DeathMan|> every progs yu want install will give you this dam font errors
[08:48] <uhno> At boot up, when I try to start my ubuntu partition I get the error "Cannot mount selected partition". Any suggestions?
[08:48] <darlok> !language | DeathMan|
[08:48] <ubotu> DeathMan|: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:48] <dgjones> TtyS2, not sure if this is the same site, but seems the same https://www.pdfonline.com/convert_pdf.asp
[08:48] <TtyS2> thanks
[08:48] <DeathMan|> eh nvm i think i will stay on xp :/
[08:48] <rukuartic> Ok.
[08:49] <darlok> DeathMan|: Your loss lol
[08:49] <DoYouKnow> darlok: glxinfo
[08:49] <rukuartic> -_-
[08:49] <darlok> DoYouKnow: And you're running Feisty?
[08:49] <DoYouKnow> yes
[08:49] <DoYouKnow> darlok: yes, I'm running feisty
[08:50] <Asathoor> bye for now :)
[08:50] <uhno> lulz nm found out my problem
[08:50] <eyemean> hello every1, im a newby
[08:51] <eyemean> got a slight problem of converting a .bz2 file to .deb cany1 help pls
[08:51] <darlok> eyemean: Why are you trying to do that?  .bz2 files are compressed archives (similar to ZIP files in Windows).  .deb are binary installation files for Debian-based OS's.... they're incompatible.
[08:52] <eyemean> im using ubuntu 7.04 darlok
[08:52] <darlok> eyemean: Okay......?  Still doesn't explain what you're trying to accomplish ;)
[08:52] <darlok> eyemean: What is the .bz2 file?
[08:53] <eyemean> lol ok so i shouldnt be oing it, its amsn
[08:53] <eyemean> i got 97b installed and i think newest is 97c
[08:53] <darlok> eyemean: Most likely then you downloaded the source code for aMSN.  You need to compile it manually - you can't simply install it.
[08:53] <TtyS2> Sweret,  the url converted the pub file to pdf Thanks :)
[08:54] <Milbur> Any recomendations on a advanced (but still free) firewall that's not extra difficult to use/install? I need a firewall that will block all traffic until set otherwise so that if a new connection or network traffic is initiated, i'll be notified immediately and allowed to set whether or not that traffic is permitted. Perhaps even something that has a cool looking active system monitor window that displays network utilization.
[08:54] <darlok> eyemean: Although, aMSN is available in the repositories... unless you're trying to get the latest and greatest version.
[08:54] <dgjones> !firewall | Milbur
[08:54] <ubotu> Milbur: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[08:54] <DoYouKnow> darlok: I had this working before
[08:54] <DoYouKnow> but I can't remember what I did
[08:54] <DoYouKnow> and I didn't take notes :(
[08:54] <eyemean> thats right darlok im trying to get latest version which is a amsn-0.97RC1.tar.bz2
[08:55] <Milbur> ubotu: Ok, I gotcha, thanks. Still new to linux here heh :)
[08:55] <darlok> DoYouKnow: Yeah, I know how to fix it in Edgy, but with Feisty it just always "worked" for me
[08:55] <broken> Quick question, synaptics package manager only finds azureus v.2.5.0.0 but I need 2.5.0.4 is it possible to get it?
[08:55] <darlok> eyemean: Then you will need to actually compile it manually.  Are you familiar with how to do that?
[08:55] <MasterShrek> broken, is there really that much of a difference between the two?
[08:55] <eyemean> no darlok i tried to follow instructions but couldnt get it to work
[08:55] <MasterShrek> besides, azureus isnt really that good of a program anyway
[08:56] <broken> MasterShrek: well lets just put this way, one is banned on bitmeTV the other isnt.
[08:56] <Trent> What's the difference between pair and map?
[08:56] <zeff> hi guys anybody can come to private chat with me and offer some help plz?
[08:56] <MasterShrek> zeff, whats your problem?
[08:56] <Trent> Oh nevermind, I found out.
[08:56] <broken> I have two choices, rtorrent or azureus. And I do not believe rtorrent offers encryption.
[08:56] <Curs0r> can a I boot from the live cd but install to a chroot dir on my hd?
[08:56] <rukuartic> broken: rtorrent is cli, and very cool :O
[08:57] <zeff> i have 7.04, now every time i standby my pc it wont wake up, monitor stays black
[08:57] <broken> I guess I
[08:57] <broken> oops, I guess i'll use it then.
[08:57] <DoYouKnow> I'll try something
[08:57] <DoYouKnow> brb
?
[08:57] <MasterShrek> zeff, stuff like standby and hibernate do not work very well in linux
[08:57] <Garrett_> Could someone inform me of how to get my cdrom to be recognised?
[08:57] <zeff> thats helpful...any chance there s way to solve this?
[08:57] <darlok> MasterShrek: ...yet. :)  I love OSS!
[08:57] <paonia> ALSA is better
[08:58] <rukuartic> zeff: Still working on the hibernate issue? >< Its hard to work.
[08:58] <zeff> yeah
[08:58] <zeff> have no idea where to start:)
[08:58] <paonia> hiberhaha
[08:58] <darlok> I never understood the desire to hibernate a computer.. but I also don't have a laptop, so I guess I never needed to understand.
[08:59] <_imran_> how do i dpkg an entire folder
[09:00] <_imran_> how do i dpkg an entire folder
[09:00] <philven> I can get laptop to standby, but can't get it to hibernate.  I'm using gnome and went into Preference>Power Management.  I have an HP laptop.  Works ok, but usually ends up rebooting on wakeup.
[09:00] <MasterShrek> _imran_, why? its not going to do you any good
[09:01] <MasterShrek> _imran_, im assuming you want to make an archive of the folder, like a rar, tar, zip, bzip, gunzip or something
[09:02] <_imran_> i need to dpkg an entire folder, instead of doing each one  seperately
[09:02] <zeff> MasterShrek> - well may be other thing u can help me out...every even boot my net is gone...now after i reboot it comes back...its like rele OS knows if this is even or uneven boot and disables lan accordingly
[09:02] <rukuartic> _imran_: dpkg -i folder/*.deb
[09:02] <lianergoist> Hi. I have a firewall problem. Cam
[09:02] <zeff> MasterShrek>\
[09:03] <_imran_> rukuartic, do i need to type 'sudo'?
[09:03] <MasterShrek> i dont know zeff, thats very weird
[09:03] <lianergoist> Hi. I have a firewall problem. Can someone help?
[09:03] <rukuartic> _imran_: shore, if you're not root
[09:03] <kasansweat> Does anyone know of a very lightweight launcher app specifically designed for no-mouse, (kiosky), situations? What I'd like is a simple mythtv menu for my TV PC that anyone could use.
[09:03] <MasterShrek> ask your question lianergoist and if we have the answer we will respond
[09:03] <zeff> are there any other support channels to get help from:)
[09:03] <broken> Is there a way to add a "pretend" flah to apt-get install?
[09:04] <lianergoist> Thanks! I cannot connect to my router via http
[09:04] <rukuartic> zeff: If you speak spanish... ...#ubuntu-es
[09:04] <MasterShrek> lianergoist, do you get an ip from your router?
[09:04] <rukuartic> zeff: Yeah... like the other guys said. Some stuff doesn't work in linux. Period.
[09:04] <rukuartic> zeff: I'm stuck with a memory card reader that won't read memory cards.
[09:04] <MasterShrek> me too rukuartic
[09:05] <lianergoist> Well, the router is working, but I cannot access the setup
[09:05] <rukuartic> zeff: but when I bought my laptop, I made sure that it hibernated and wireless worked before I bought it
[09:05] <MasterShrek> lianergoist, are you sure you are typing the correct ip address in your browser?
[09:05] <Scunizi> I plan on installing Gutsy when released. Is there any difference between installing ubuntu & kubuntu separately and sharing a seperate home partition vs. installing ubuntu then the kubuntu-desktop package on top to be chosen by changing sessions?
[09:05] <lianergoist> Yes!
[09:05] <_imran_> rukuartic, it doesnt work. it says: dpkg-split: error reading /media/Imran's Harddrive/Ubuntu Games: Is a directory dpkg: error processing /media/Imran's Harddrive/Ubuntu Games (--install): subprocess dpkg-split returned error exit status 2 dpkg: error processing *.deb (--install): cannot access archive: No such file or directory Errors were encountered while processing: /media/Imran's Harddrive/Ubuntu Games *.deb
[09:06] <macogw> Scunizi: yeah, you have to reboot to switch between them and your menus might show programs that dont exist on that install
[09:06] <zeff> bro, some particular device not working is okay thing, not comfy but okay...but having a bigass OS that exists for years and cant deal with hardware option like standby thats around since lik "97...wow, i m disappointed
[09:06] <rukuartic> lianergoist: Its not something silly like https instead of http is there?
[09:06] <rukuartic> _imran_: Woo
[09:06] <K-4U> I'm having problems with beryl, where should i go?
[09:06] <rukuartic> _imran_: spaces in directories = win
[09:06] <paonia> Scunizi: Technically by installing ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop you can run both simultainously in different VT
[09:06] <Scunizi> macogw, that's it?
[09:06] <macogw> Scunizi: having epiphany on debian and firefox on ubuntu meant gnome menus getting all confused
[09:06] <lianergoist> MasterShrek, I have tried to shut down the fw, but no luck
[09:06] <macogw> Scunizi: i believe so
[09:06] <MasterShrek> Scunizi, yea, but u probably wont have to restart, just restart your xserver
[09:06] <Scunizi> paonia, I like that idea..
[09:06] <rukuartic> _imran_: type "pwd" and hit enter
[09:07] <macogw> MasterShrek: i meant has to restart if using 2 partitions
[09:07] <MasterShrek> oh, well yea, but why would you?
[09:07] <macogw> MasterShrek: Scunizi already specified knowing about switching sessions
[09:07] <Scunizi> MasterShrek, cool.. running dapper now and think it's probably time to upgrade.. next month
[09:07] <paonia> Scunizi - I discovered this by accident about a year ago
[09:07] <_imran_> rukuartic, what does that do?
[09:07] <zeff> where i can get help bout xvideo?
[09:07] <rukuartic> _imran_: Prints Working Directory (pwd)
[09:07] <Scunizi> paonia, which vt?
[09:07] <_imran_> it says V
[09:08] <rukuartic> zeff: Maybe their irc channel... depends.
[09:08] <K-4U> I'm having problems with beryl, where should i go?
[09:08] <_imran_> it says /home/imran
[09:08] <rukuartic> zeff: Not sure
[09:08] <rukuartic> _imran_: Ok
[09:08] <Scunizi> paonia, some won't do a DM right?
[09:08] <MasterShrek> K-4U, #ubuntu-effects
[09:08] <rukuartic> _imran_: type cd /media/Imra... and get into that folder
[09:08] <zeff> rukuartic and that channel is...
[09:08] <K-4U> TY mastershrek
[09:08] <Plinskin> hi
[09:08] <rukuartic> zeff: I have no idea D: you might try looking around their site
[09:08] <zeff> wow thanks lol
[09:08] <rukuartic> zeff: you could try asking for help here I suppose
[09:08] <babo> Spidering Hacks - 100 Industrial-Strength Tips & Tools.rar: RAR archive data, v1d, os: Win32
[09:09] <paonia> Scunizi CTRL-ALT - F8 but you have to lock current session and start new session from Kubu
[09:09] <babo> that file type archive should be OK to open on linux right ?
[09:09] <_imran_> it says /media/Imran's Harddrive/Ubuntu Games$
[09:09] <babo> I mean linux should still open it ?
[09:09] <rukuartic> ok
[09:09] <rukuartic> _imran_: try from here... "dpkg -i *.deb"
[09:09] <Scunizi> paonia, I'd try it now on Dapper but CTRL F8 is showing startup scripts.
[09:09] <zeff> is there anybody that knows how to configure xvideo?and whats that exactly...i need it (i suppose) to make my tv-card work...thru tv-time app
[09:09] <Siph0n> i read that i can have gnome AND fluxbox installed, if i do that when i boot will it ask me which windows manager i want to use?
[09:10] <periklis> hi
[09:10] <Plinskin> does someone know why when i boot my 7.10 beta live cd it freezes at the menu??
[09:10] <paonia> you have to enable the function - currently I am running xubuntu so I have a little different set-up
[09:10] <rukuartic> zeff: googled, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_video_extension
[09:10] <K-4U> I'm having troubles starting Beryl. When i right click the icon, and click on: Choose Controller->Beryl. it will flash a couple times, and then it goes back to the backfall
[09:10] <rukuartic> Plinskin: #ubuntu+1
[09:10] <K-4U> Sorry, in ubuntu-effects is nobody
[09:10] <MasterShrek> Siph0n, you choose it from the "Actions" menu on your login screen
[09:10] <_imran_> rukuartic, yeah, it works!!!
[09:10] <rukuartic> _imran_: There you go
[09:11] <Siph0n> MasterShrek, thanx! :)
[09:11] <zeff> ok, another one, i dl ati drivers, its got *.run extension my sys tries to open it with archiver...how do i install 'em?
[09:11] <Scunizi> paonia, if you're in a different VT and load a kubuntu desktop, why would you need to lock the previous session?
[09:11] <babo> linux supports .rar right ?
[09:11] <rukuartic> _imran_: I think you were forgetting your trailing slash
[09:11] <rukuartic> babo: apt-get install unrar
[09:11] <Plinskin> rukuartik: ?? what
[09:11] <periklis> how i will install the graphic drivers? knows somebody????
[09:11] <MasterShrek> zeff, open a terminal
[09:11] <_imran_> rukuartic, lol
[09:11] <boogerbox> hello?
[09:11] <MasterShrek> then chmod 777 ati......run
[09:11] <paonia> it is part of the script that does it - but I forget how to get it to come up in the KMenu
[09:11] <MasterShrek> then sudo ./ati.....run
[09:11] <zeff> i hope there s another step cause it didnt help:)
[09:11] <zeff> sek
[09:11] <boogerbox> does anyone know where i can get flash for ubuntu 7.04?
[09:12] <rukuartic> _imran_: eg: dpkg -i /media/Imran\'s\ Drive/Ubuntu\ Games *.deb is wrong
[09:12] <K-4U> I'm having troubles starting Beryl. When i right click the icon, and click on: Choose Controller->Beryl. it will flash a couple times, and then it goes back to the backfall
[09:12] <rukuartic> _imran_: eg: dpkg -i /media/Imran\'s\ Drive/Ubuntu\ Games/*.deb is right
[09:12] <MasterShrek> !flash | boogerbox

[09:13] <boogerbox> sorry
[09:13] <K-4U> periklis: have you tried wine?
[09:13] <boogerbox> is that flash 9 for an amd 64 processor?
[09:13] <K-4U> I'm having troubles starting Beryl. When i right click the icon, and click on: Choose Controller->Beryl. it will flash a couple times, and then it goes back to the backfall
[09:13] <jrib> periklis: what card?
[09:13] <zeff> mastershreck, opened terminal, wrote sudo and whatever u said, it says command not found
[09:13] <jrib> boogerbox: no, but see ubotu's message
[09:13] <MasterShrek> boogerbox, did you install the amd64 version of ubuntu?
[09:14] <periklis> ati 2900 xt
[09:14] <boogerbox> no  i havent installed it yet
[09:14] <boogerbox> i dont even know where to find it
[09:14] <jrib> boogerbox: you have not installed ubuntu?
[09:14] <Scunizi> How do you start a kde session in VT6. I tried sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start with no success.
[09:14] <boogerbox> yea im on ubuntu
[09:14] <periklis> i did
[09:14] <boogerbox> i just need to install flash 9 now
[09:14] <K-4U> Is there ANYone who can help me PLEASE?:|
[09:14] <jrib> boogerbox: that is what MasterShrek is asking.  Paste the output of 'uname -a' you get
[09:15] <jrib> !ati > periklis (read the private message from ubotu)
[09:15] <jrib> !please > K-4U (read the private message from ubotu)
[09:15] <Scunizi> K-4U, did you change the desktop manager from metacity to compiz?
[09:15] <boogerbox> oh, i haven;t installed flash 9 yet.
[09:15] <boogerbox> can you tell me what site i can download it
[09:15] <babo> what's the best .chm file viewer for ubuntu called ?
[09:15] <boogerbox> can you tell me what site i can download it?
[09:15] <K-4U> scunizi: Yes, it worked perfectly. until i rebooted
[09:15] <jrib> boogerbox: yes, I understand what you mean.  Please tell us the output the command 'uname -a'
[09:15] <boogerbox> whats that?
[09:16] <Scunizi> K-4U, and you repeated the same steps after reboot without success?
[09:16] <MasterShrek> boogerbox, your kernel version
[09:16] <boogerbox> oh
[09:16] <boogerbox> 7.04 feisty fawn?
[09:16] <K-4U> Scunizi: I have installed beryl several times, but nothing worked
[09:16] <MasterShrek> along with other things, architecture and such
[09:16] <jrib> babo: try gnochm and xchm, both in the repositories
[09:16] <babo> jrib: k thanks
[09:17] <MasterShrek> K-4U, did u run it?
[09:17] <jrib> boogerbox: all you have to do is open a terminal, type 'uname -a' without the quotes, press enter and tell us the output
[09:17] <Scunizi> K-4U, that's not what I ment.. on reboot did you load beryl so the icon shows up then change desktop managers from metacity to compiz?
[09:17] <zeff> mastershrek?
[09:17] <MasterShrek> what?
[09:17] <K-4U> Mastershrek, what do you mean? Beryl-manager is started
[09:17] <boogerbox> allright
[09:17] <babo> one last question. How do I convince gnome that .txt files aren't opened with scribus ? I've tried right-clicking ... etc...
[09:17] <K-4U> yes @ scunizi
[09:18] <boogerbox> this is what came out
[09:18] <boogerbox> Linux boogerbox 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Sun Sep 23 18:31:23 UTC 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[09:18] <MasterShrek> K-4U, if u right click the tray icon, u should be able to change your window manager and stuff, i think thats what u have to do
[09:18] <MasterShrek> boogerbox, you are going to need to use nspluginwrapper to use flash, its kinda a hack, but it works
[09:18] <zeff> mastershrek?it didnt work?
[09:18] <K-4U> Mastershrek: I already did that. when i choose Beryl as window manager, everything just flickers, and then it goes to the fallback
[09:18] <boogerbox> how do i use that?
[09:18] <jrib> !flash64 > boogerbox (read the private message from ubotu)
[09:19] <MasterShrek> zeff, i dont know, i dont use ati
[09:19] <Scunizi> K-4U, what kind of video card are you using
[09:19] <K-4U> Nvidea XFX
[09:19] <jrib> boogerbox: the page ubotu has linked you to has detailed instructions.  Note that you could have installed the 32bit version of ubuntu on your processor and saved yourself this extra hassle.  Adobe does not provide a 64bit flash plugin
[09:19] <zeff> isnt this official support channel?i rele dont mean to be rude but can u please direct me to where the guys that do know sit...
[09:19] <whileimhere> hi are there any alternatives to apaches web server for running an offline test environment?
[09:19] <pigcom> Scunizi Nvidia club 6200 sir
[09:19] <K-4U> scunizi: Err, the exact type, let me see please:P
[09:19] <LjL> zeff, this is the official support channel.
[09:20] <Scunizi> K-4U, and you have the correct driver loaded and active?
[09:20] <boogerbox> damnit
[09:20] <boogerbox> this sucks
[09:20] <zeff> well whatever glitch i have its like or"linux doesnt work good with whatever" or "i dont know"
[09:20] <boogerbox> i really need flash
[09:20] <LjL> !language | boogerbox
[09:20] <ubotu> boogerbox: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:20] <K-4U> Scunizi: Yes, because it already worked
[09:20] <jrib> boogerbox: we've told you how to get it.  Did you not receive the link from ubotu?
[09:20] <boogerbox> can someone in here has a 64 bit amd running linux here help me pleeeeeeeeeeas
[09:20] <AlexC_> Hey guys,
[09:21] <K-4U> Scunizi: Could it have something to do with the fact that i have 2 screens?
[09:21] <Howitzer> I'm having a problem; i've got this 'Bourne Supremacy' DVD so i put it in my DVD-player but it doesn't recognize is, when i try to mount it; it says no media is present. (My Oblivion DVD does get recognized)
[09:21] <AlexC_> I'm looking for a program that I can easily create flow-char/diagrams in. I used to know the name of one, but I can't remember it. Any ideas?
[09:21] <zeff> f> well whatever glitch i have its like or"linux doesnt work good with whatever" or "i dont know"?
[09:21] <boogerbox> yea it just send me a link
[09:21] <LjL> zeff, nobody in here is paid for support, so you certainly do get what you pay for. what was your problem again?
[09:21] <periklis> /home/periklis/Desktop/ati-driver-installer-8.40.4-x86.x86_64.run
[09:21] <LjL> zeff, if you want paid support, it is available.
[09:21] <whileimhere> boogerbox: Besides a really gross name what exactly is it you are asking?
[09:21] <periklis> how i will install it
[09:21] <jrib> boogerbox: yes, and you click on the link and read the page to learn how to install flash 64.  If you don't want to go through this trouble then just reinstall 32bit ubuntu where flash is much easier to install.
[09:22] <Scunizi> K-4U, did you have one screen before when it was working then add the second screen?
[09:22] <boogerbox> nah
[09:22] <boogerbox> im running a 64 bit
[09:22] <K-4U> Scunizi: Yes
[09:22] <boogerbox> and i know there is one
[09:22] <jrib> periklis: did you first read the link ubotu gave you about ATI and using the Restricted Driver Manager instead of downloading from ati?
[09:22] <zeff> yeah well if i need to pay to make network and video drivers work no offense but i think i ll just go back to win, i just dont understand how come everyone says ubuntu is so cool and nothing works
[09:22] <boogerbox> my friend installed it for me
[09:22] <K-4U> Scunizi, should i remove one screen, and try again?
[09:22] <boogerbox> but had to reinstall ubuntu on my laptop
[09:22] <boogerbox> so yea
[09:22] <LjL> !enter
[09:22] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:22] <jrib> boogerbox: ok, well if you want to stay on 64bit then please read the link ubotu gave you
[09:22] <boogerbox> allright
[09:22] <Scunizi> K-4U, that's your issue.  That was a significant change.. you can run beryl with two screens but you have to make changes to xorg.conf.. I don't know how to do that.
[09:22] <boogerbox> can he send me the link one more time
[09:22] <boogerbox> please
[09:22] <boogerbox> thank you.
[09:23] <jrib> !flash64 > boogerbox (read the private message from ubotu)
[09:23] <boogerbox> k
[09:23] <andruk> how do i install the driver from nvidia's website?  if im in gnome, it tells me to stop the GUI.  if i do it in recovery mode, it tells me to 'telinit 3', which just gives me back the gui.
[09:23] <riaal> is it possible to link an terminal command to a set of keystrokes? lite ctrl+alt+G or something?
[09:23] <K-4U> Scunizi: Okay, i'll use one screen right now, and then i'll see what it does
[09:23] <LjL> andruk, why would you install it from the nvidia site?
[09:23] <Howitzer> I'm having a problem; i've got this 'Bourne Supremacy' DVD so i put it in my DVD-player but it doesn't recognize is, when i try to mount it; it says no media is present. (My Oblivion DVD does get recognized) I've searched the Ubuntu Forums and the Ubuntu wiki but to no avail
[09:24] <jrib> riaal: yes, you can use xvkbd for example.  Example usage: /usr/bin/xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[Control_L] \[Page_Down] "
[09:24] <andruk> LjL, because nothing else worked (restricted-drivers-manager, envy, automatix).  this is a fresh install (so no remnants of any of those).
[09:24] <K-4U> err, how do you restart Xserver without restarting your whole PC?
[09:25] <K-4U> there should be a simple command for it?
[09:25] <james296> I know this isnt the right channel to talk about this but is it possible to prevent the mintMenu icon from changing to the Ubuntu icon?
[09:25] <LjL> andruk: that's good. now to make it even better, you should try and install the Ubuntu package.
[09:25] <jrib> K-4U: 'sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart' or hit ctrl-alt-backspace
[09:25] <andruk> K-4U: i think its ctrl+alt+backspace
[09:25] <james296> I went to the linux mint channel already and theres actually NO one in it...
[09:25] <AnRkey> K-4U, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[09:25] <LjL> andruk: otherwise, even if you get the one from nvidia.com installed, you'll be left with no working display as soon as the kernel gets an update.
[09:25] <linos> question, I have edgy eft 6.10, if I continue with the updates, do that mean I have an equivalent ubuntu 7.10 OS?
[09:26] <LjL> andruk: i am unfortunately not familiar with restricted-drivers-manager, but please tell me what happens when you try to install it from there.
[09:26] <LjL> linos: no
[09:26] <LjL> !upgrade > linos    (linos, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:26] <jrib> linos: you would need to upgrade to 7.04 first and then to 7.10 when it is released later in october
[09:26] <LjL> linos: the updates are just security fixes and fixes to serious bugs.
[09:26] <AnRkey> linos, if you do a distupgrade you will end up with feisty
[09:26] <AnRkey> 7.04
[09:27] <andruk> LjL, i already have (the others were fresh installs as well).  when i install it from anywhere, the best that happens is that gnome almost finishes loading (it starts loading applets), and then completely freezes my computer (ie-not even ctrl-alt-f1 works).
[09:27] <linos> LjL and  AnRkey  thank you both for your replies
[09:27] <LjL> andruk: try using the nvidia-glx-new package then (sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new)
[09:27] <AnRkey> np
[09:28] <periklis> i downloaded the archive but does not open
[09:28] <K-4U> err right, that worked @ ctrl+alt+backspace
[09:28] <jrib> periklis: what archive?
[09:28] <K-4U> and now Beryl works too
[09:28] <K-4U> but i have no headers
[09:28] <periklis> ati drivers for linux
[09:28] <jrib> periklis: why are you not using the Restricted Driver Manager?
[09:28] <LjL> !ati > periklis    (periklis, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:29] <periklis> i dont know many things
[09:29] <K-4U> so i can't close my windows:\
[09:29] <hypn0> is there a way to make windows keys function as tab or backspace keys
[09:29] <andruk> LjL: will that command reconfigure /etc/X11/xorg.conf and everything?
[09:29] <LjL> periklis: first thing you should know then: never install anything that's not in the repositories unless you've asked here first.
[09:29] <cbus_> does the installcd contain a dhcpclient and ping? (that you can use pre installation)?
[09:29] <LjL> andruk: no, it will just install the driver, it's not as automated as the restricted manager.
[09:29] <jrib> periklis: ubotu has sent you a message.  Please read the link he has given you.  It will tell you how to use the Restricted Driver Manager
[09:30] <LjL> andruk: you don't need to go and manually edit xorg.conf, though, unless things go bad
[09:30] <andruk> LjL: i think things already went bad when restricted-drivers-manager didnt work.  ;-)
[09:30] <LjL> andruk: you *should* just need to type  sudo nvidia-glx-config enable  after installing it
[09:30] <K-4U> What to do when i have Beryl activated and i have no headers? So i can't move or close my windows
[09:30] <LjL> well andruk, it's very easy to revert to the old driver
[09:31] <cbus_> anyone have any clue?
[09:31] <hinogi> is there any way to improve the strokes in xournal so that they are 100% while making a stroke?
[09:31] <LjL> andruk: just type  sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf , and change the line where it says  Driver "nvidia"  back into  Driver "nv"  . or better still, make a backup of xorg.conf before switching drivers -- that way, you will never be left with a non-working X for more than 10 minutes.
[09:31] <K-4U> What to do when i have Beryl activated and i have no headers? So i can't move or close my windows
[09:32] <LjL> !away > kaminix|away    (kaminix|away, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:32] <LjL> K-4U: you mean the titlebars?
[09:32] <andruk> LjL: okay, it wants to restart.  and it made a backup all on its own (restricted-drivers-manager should do that).
[09:32] <K-4U> LjL: Yes
[09:32] <Sigurney> With Kubuntu (kde obviously) is there an easy or just known way to make it so there is some sort of animation/video in the background at the login screen!?!?
[09:32] <LjL> andruk: what, installing nvidia-glx-new wants to restart your computer?
[09:32] <andruk> LjL: yes
[09:33] <sureshot> hay i need to know if the software charon vax emulator is in the ubuntu repos
[09:33] <andruk> LjL: no.  sorry
[09:33] <LjL> andruk: that's a new one
[09:33] <andruk> LjL: enabling the driver wants to restart
[09:33] <LjL> K-4U: if you have an Nvidia card, type  sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24  and then try restarting X
[09:33] <K-4U> LjL: Okay, thnx i'll try
[09:34] <LjL> andruk: enabling the driver by using  sudo nvidia-glx-config enable ? i don't remember it did that, but try letting it. again, if you're left at a terminal, just restore a backup of xorg.conf or change that line.
[09:34] <dgjones> sureshot, doesn't look like its part of the ubuntu packages
[09:34] <andruk> LjL: same result as everything else: gnome resfuses to load all the way and my computer is frozen.
[09:35] <zeff> how can i configure gaim for irc?
[09:35] <andruk> so, back into recovery mode for me.
[09:35] <sureshot> dgjones thanks for that info.. that is a rear peice of software
[09:35] <sureshot> now can i start ubuntu for a second drive with the boot.ini file in windows
[09:35] <zeff> anyone...how can i configure gaim msn for irc??
[09:35] <LjL> andruk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia#troubleshooting
[09:35] <LjL> andruk: why recovery mode?
[09:35] <sureshot> from a second drive
[09:36] <LjL> andruk, can you not even switch to a terminal?
[09:36] <dgjones> sureshot, http://packages.ubuntu.com/ you can use this website to check for yourself in case its under another name though
[09:37] <LjL> andruk: no, you can't, as you already said that. sorry
[09:37] <mlalkaka> Is running QEmu/KVM faster than running QEmu/KQEmu?
[09:37] <zef1> hey
[09:37] <LjL> andruk: the GNOME screen remains frozen but unaltered, right? i.e. no lines or stuff on the screen?
[09:37] <mindrape> hi zef1
[09:38] <sureshot> thanks again i can do fedora that way i hope i can in ubuntu
[09:38] <andruk> LjL: that is correct.
[09:38] <LjL> mlalkaka: only if you have a processor that supports KVM in hardware (and even then, not necessarily i think)
[09:38] <mlalkaka> LjL: How can I determine whether my processor supports KVM in hardware?
[09:38] <LjL> mlalkaka: i honestly don't know. probably  cat /proc/cpuinfo , but you need to know what to look for in there, and i don't
[09:39] <andruk> LjL: gnome freezes fine (lol).  looks great.
[09:39] <mlalkaka> LjL: thanks
[09:39] <disposition> do you guys have any idea why when i mount my external drive, it'll mount and be accessible, but won't appear as a drive on my desktop/in places?
[09:39] <AnRkey> how do i check the ubuntu version from shell?
[09:39] <hilikus_> what does it mean when in lspci i get on 02:00.0 "VGA Compatible Controller" and in 02:00.1 i get "Display Controller"
[09:39] <dgjones> !version | AnRkey
[09:39] <ubotu> AnRkey: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[09:40] <AnRkey> thanks dgjones
[09:40] <Sigurney> With Kubuntu (kde obviously) is there an easy or just known way to make it so there is some sort of animation/video in the background at the login screen!?!?
[09:40] <dgjones> AnRkey, np
[09:41] <LjL> andruk: is there nothing suspicious in /var/log/syslog?
[09:41] <kevor> Hllo!
[09:41] <kevor> ubuntu keeps freezing the system (No ctrl-alt-f1 or anything else) when choosing "Change user" from the shutdown menu
[09:41] <kevor> is this a known issue?
[09:42] <GregVernon> Hi guys, I have a question
[09:42] <MasterShrek> !ask
[09:42] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:42] <GregVernon> MasterShrek, heh, thanks
[09:42] <MasterShrek> kevor, whats your video card? could possibly have something to do with that...
[09:42] <MasterShrek> but i dont know for sure
[09:43] <andruk> LjL: checking...
[09:43] <LjL> andruk: you cannot move the mouse either i suppose? in the frozen gnome screen i mean
[09:43] <GregVernon> I ran out of diskspace trying to install ubuntu-desktop, how can I get rid of the packages.  When ever I try aptiture remove ubuntu-desktop, it says I don't have enough free disk space to actually uninstall it
[09:43] <AnRkey> GregVernon, sudo apt-get autoclean
[09:43] <andruk> LjL: that is correct.  i can do nothing.  absolutely nothing.  except hit the reboot button.  ;-)
[09:43] <bluebanana> I scanned a printed text file as both PDF and JPEG. I have gocr installed. how do i do OCR on it?
[09:43] <disposition> do you guys have any idea why when i mount my external drive, it'll mount and be accessible, but won't appear as a drive on my desktop/in places?
[09:44] <MasterShrek> disposition, where does it mount to?
[09:44] <Roge> anyone know the pack i gotta install to compile apps from source ?
[09:44] <jrib> !compile > Roge (read the private message from ubotu)
[09:44] <LjL> andruk: well, that is not really good news, because the two bug reports that seemed possibly relevant indicated 1) garbled screen 2) mouse still moved
[09:44] <Roge> thx
[09:44] <MasterShrek> disposition, well first let me ask are you mounting it manually, or is it auto-mounting?
[09:44] <LjL> andruk: so i think you should go to http://bugs.ubuntu.com and file a bug
[09:44] <GregVernon> AnRkey, "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem."
[09:45] <kevor> MasterShrek: it's an Ati
[09:45] <AnRkey> GregVernon, sudo dpkg --configure -a
[09:45] <AnRkey> do that first
[09:45] <andruk> LjL: is it fair to do that if i dont know what the problem is?
[09:45] <GregVernon> heh, I have done that
[09:45] <Ashex> anyone happen to have a thinkpad?
[09:45] <AnRkey> GregVernon, still not enough space?
[09:45] <MasterShrek> kevor, it could possibly have something to do with it trying to create another xserver, and the ati driver doesnt know what to do. ati isnt very linux-friendly
[09:45] <GregVernon> Yep
[09:45] <MasterShrek> Ashex, why?
[09:45] <AnRkey> GregVernon, you need to remove some apps for space
[09:45] <andruk> LjL: it could be the driver, it could be gnome, or it could be a plethora of other things.  so, a better question is do the people at launchpad care about that?
[09:45] <AnRkey> or some other stuff
[09:46] <GregVernon> AnRkey, problem, if I can't autoclean, how can I uninstall programs?
[09:46] <Ashex> MasterShrek: I'm curious as to whether or not anyone has had issues with the hotkeys going away after updates
[09:46] <disposition> mastershrek: it's in my /etc/fstab, but when i boot up it doesn't automount, so i ahve to mount -a
[09:46] <AnRkey> GregVernon, is there anything else you can delete?
[09:46] <bluebanana> how can i extract text from a scanned document?
[09:46] <LjL> andruk: if it's the driver, they can't do anything about it. but still, it'd be important for them - and other users too - to know about it. i'd file it under nvidia-glx, anyway, since it does only happen when the driver is enabled.
[09:46] <disposition> MasterShrek: this is the fstab entry: /dev/sdb1 /media/distopia ntfs-3g defaults 0 0
[09:47] <MasterShrek> disposition, it should show up then
[09:47] <MasterShrek> i dont kow why it wouldnt
[09:47] <LjL> meanwhile, andruk, i suppose you might install the drivers from nvidia.com and see if they work, but do remember that they *will* create you problems
[09:47] <disposition> ugh, i'll try posting to the forums about it
[09:47] <LjL> andruk: perhaps another option could be to install Gutsy and see if their drivers work for you. here, though, the problem is that Gutsy is still unstable.
[09:48] <andruk> LjL: what are those problems?  and I go back to my original question, how do i install them?
[09:48] <toastja1> is there anywhere I should begin to diagnose a 5 second delay when making ftp/ssh connections to my ubuntu server and a complete inability to ssh out?
[09:49] <andruk> LjL: im in gutsy now, only because i wanted to see if things changed.  it had the same effect in feisty.  :-/
[09:49] <LjL> andruk, the main problem is that when kernel updates are released, your nvidia driver will break. another problem is that if you later decide to install some newer (working) drivers from repositories, it won't be easy to do.
[09:49] <saxin> Looking for a torrent client like uTorrent. Any suggestions?
[09:49] <LjL> andruk, uhm, but i think gutsy *has* what is currently the latest version of the driver
[09:49] <kevor> MasterShrek: Do you know of any solution?
[09:49] <LjL> so i'm afraid installing it from nvidia won't help any, andruk
[09:49] <riyonuk> How come I need to unplug and then replug in the little bluetooth usb device so ubuntu recgonizes my mouse/keyboard?
[09:49] <riyonuk> saxin, ktorrent
[09:49] <kevor> without having to rip out my ati card ;)
[09:50] <saxin> riyonuk: running gnome. ktorrent is a KDE-program?
[09:50] <andruk> LjL: ah.  well, ive got all my data on a separate drive, so reinstalling ubuntu isnt a big problem (package listings generated by synaptic are awesome).
[09:50] <riyonuk> saxin, Yup :D
[09:50] <saxin> riyonuk: got another suggestions?
[09:50] <GregVernon> AnRkey, is it possible to resize partitions in SSH?
[09:50] <riyonuk> saxin, hmm
[09:51] <riyonuk> saxin, drupal?
[09:51] <LjL> andruk, tell me again where you got stuck in the manual installation of the nvidia.com driver, then - though i've never installed it manually
[09:51] <AnRkey> GregVernon, no idea
[09:51] <AnRkey> GregVernon, is there really nothing that u can delete?
[09:52] <saxin> riyonuk: riyonuk: hmm.. I might just use wine with uTorrent..
[09:52] <AnRkey> GregVernon, just a few mb
[09:52] <riyonuk> saxin, I heard that works well, never tried it though :/
[09:52] <GregVernon> I'm looking for things
[09:52] <MasterShrek> no kevor i use nvidia, and i never switch user cuz i only have one user
[09:52] <_S4MUR4I_> ktorrent bro
[09:52] <kevor> hehe
[09:52] <saxin> riyonuk: I give it a try.
[09:52] <_imran_> how do i dpkg an entire folder?
[09:53] <GregVernon> AnRkey, I managed to run dpkg --configure -a
[09:53] <LjL> by the way andruk, a new nvidia-glx-new package has just been uploaded to the Gutsy repositories apparently. try "sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and see if that package is marked for upgrade.
[09:53] <AnRkey> now remove apps you don't need
[09:53] <andruk> okay, so i launched it in a terminal emulator (in gnome) and it told me that i should not have x running.  so i restarted into recovery mode, and it didnt want to install and suggested me trying 'telinit 3' before running the installer again.  running telinit 3 just brought me to a gui again (so x had started)
[09:53] <LjL> andruk: not that it would necessarily fix anything, but worth a try.
[09:53] <AnRkey> then u should be ok
[09:53] <MasterShrek> saxin, transmission-gtk
[09:54] <andruk> LjL: will do.  and to answer your earlier question, i manually pages throgh syslog and didnt find anything related to graphics
[09:54] <AnRkey> GregVernon, if you run sudo apt-get clean you will remove all downloaded installed packages that cached
[09:54] <AnRkey> that are cached :D
[09:54] <MasterShrek> andruk, ctrl+alt+f1 and run: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[09:55] <andruk> MasterShrek: my good man, that is awesome. ty
[09:55] <GregVernon> AnRkey, ok, dkpg is still running
[09:55] <MasterShrek> andruk, put start at the end to restart it later
[09:55] <AnRkey> cool
[09:55] <bluebanana> how can i do OCR on my scanned documents?
[09:55] <GregVernon> seeing as I'm not screened, I can't do much else
[09:55] <LjL> !info gocr | bluebanana
[09:55] <AnRkey> Greeny_, apt-get clean should give you a load of space
[09:55] <LjL> !info ocrad | bluebanana
[09:55] <ubotu> bluebanana: gocr: A command line OCR. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.41-1ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 314 kB, installed size 660 kB
[09:55] <ubotu> bluebanana: ocrad: Optical Character Recognition program. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.16-1 (feisty), package size 134 kB, installed size 356 kB
[09:56] <Zasch> Hello. I just installed Audacity, and when I try to start it up, it gives me an error saying "There was an error initialising the audio i/o layer. You will not be able to pay or record audio. Error: Host error." How do I correct this?
[09:56] <andruk> MasterShrek: ty
[09:56] <Wolf23> hi friends, someone help please!
[09:56] <bluebanana> what's the diff between gocr and ocrad? Is one better?
[09:56] <GregVernon> AnRkey, okay, when that is dpkg is done
[09:56] <_imran_> how do i dpkg an entire folder?
[09:56] <LjL> bluebanana: sometimes, sometimes now
[09:56] <LjL> t
[09:56] <LjL> _imran_: eh?
[09:57] <GregVernon> then I need to *somehow* get a VNC server installed... on an odd port
[09:57] <bluebanana> LjL, huh? Sometimes?
[09:57] <GregVernon> like, 80 for example
[09:57] <MasterShrek> Zasch, edit > preferences
[09:57] <Sigurney> With Kubuntu is there a way to make it so there is some sort of animation/video in the background at the login screen!?!?
[09:57] <_imran_> i want to dpkg an entire folder of .deb files all at once
[09:57] <AnRkey> GregVernon, vncserver is easy
[09:57] <Zasch> MasterShrek: Alright, I'm there
[09:57] <MasterShrek> Zasch, Audio I/O and chood  a different device
[09:57] <MasterShrek> choose*
[09:57] <LjL> bluebanana, depends on what sort of imperfections the scanned document has. i'd say that, possibly, ocrad performs better on average.
[09:57] <xanadu> how can I copy all my attached files from e-mails in MOZILLA-THUNDERBIRD to a directory? I can't find where thunderbird save my incoming e-mails.
[09:57] <Zasch> MasterShrek: Nothing is listed, and there are no options for Playback Device or Recording Device
[09:58] <bluebanana> my scanned document is a perfectly printed document.
[09:58] <GregVernon> AnRkey, I just have one thing that may cause a few problems
[09:58] <Wolf23> can anyone tell me how to configure amule? thanx
[09:58] <LjL> bluebanana: that doesn't much matter.
[09:58] <AnRkey> ...
[09:58] <GregVernon> there is no monitor actually attached to the server
[09:58] <MasterShrek> Zasch, hmm...im assuming your sound is working. correct?
[09:58] <erUSUL> xanadu: they are stored as mbox files so you can not opy the attached files from command line
[09:58] <LjL> bluebanana, on the other hand, there are Gtk/GNOME front-ends for gocr, while for ocrad, there is only Kooka, a KDE application
[09:58] <Zasch> MasterShrek: Yes, it is
[09:58] <GregVernon> I've had problems with different distros when in situations like this
[09:58] <AnRkey> GregVernon, I don't think that will be a problem
[09:58] <jon1> hey linux peeps
[09:59] <GregVernon> ok, Mandrake back in the day gave me a few problems
[09:59] <LjL> bluebanana, type "apt-cache rdepends gocr" to know which GUI front-ends support gocr
[09:59] <jon1> i`m on a ds
[09:59] <xanadu> erUSUL, oh no! Is there a way to do it ?
[09:59] <AnRkey> GregVernon, none of my servers have monitors
[09:59] <jon1> anyway ciao
[09:59] <AnRkey> GregVernon, no monitor = no special people messing around
[09:59] <GregVernon> AnRkey, I am trying to use gnome/xorg, etc. will that cause problems?
[09:59] <MasterShrek> Zasch, run it from a terminal once, and see what kinda errors you get
[09:59] <bluebanana> LjL,  i installed gocr-gtk, but how do i run it?
[09:59] <AnRkey> GregVernon, no don't think so
[10:00] <Zasch> MasterShrek: Just the same error.
[10:00] <MasterShrek> Zasch, did u recently install it?
[10:00] <Sigurney> I can't find good documentation on customizing the KDE login screen, any reccomendations?
[10:00] <Zasch> MasterShrek: Yes
[10:00] <Wolf23> noone knows about amule?
[10:00] <GregVernon> Ok, I wish I would have installed all the files I wanted *before* I left for school
[10:00] <LjL> bluebanana, better not split a single question into two channels.
[10:00] <GregVernon> Now all I can do is SSH, and it's really annoying
[10:00] <MasterShrek> Sigurney, theres a program at kde-look for changing it
[10:00] <MasterShrek> Sigurney, cant remember the name...
[10:00] <Sigurney> MasterShrek: Alright, hopefully that'll get me going heh :)
[10:00] <MasterShrek> Zasch, try aoss audacity
[10:01] <Zasch> Mastershrek: What does that mean?
[10:01] <JosHate> Got a question, if someone has the time.  I want a way to listen for the access of a file in a directory and its subdirectories, at which point I want to execute a perl script.  Is there a feasible way to do this?
[10:01] <MasterShrek> Zasch, its running it using oss, im not sure why, but it works for me sometimes
[10:01] <FatalError> joseaa, filesystem hooks

[10:03] <v_> I have a program that will not open in 7.10; it is a program that you just extract to a folder and click the launch-button to open (www.bitwiseim.com); anyone know what command I need for this to open in 7.10?
[10:04] <quittt> how do I see if my swap partition is being used?
[10:04] <Elda> Quick question.... how can I gain admin access to edit my hard drive when using the the live cd at boot?
[10:04] <v0idnull> Hi, Ubuntu uses gnome as its windows manager, not KDE, correct?
[10:04] <_imran_> how do dpkg an entire folder
[10:04] <ST47> v0idnull: correct
[10:04] <GregVernon> Just a tip for the devs here, I think it might be a good idea for a package like ubuntu-desktop-minimal
[10:05] <v0idnull> ST47: would it be a trivial task to convert kde themes to gnome themes?
[10:05] <ST47> v0idnull: there are other versions that use KDE, however - Kubunut
[10:05] <MasterShrek> Elda, open a terminal: sudo su
[10:05] <ST47> v0idnull: If you really want KDE, you can seek out Kubuntu
[10:05] <MasterShrek> _imran_, why?
[10:05] <GregVernon> which just installs the basic things needed to run a desktop environment, without openoffice, evolution, etc.
[10:05] <MasterShrek> _imran_, do u know what dpkg is for?
[10:05] <_imran_> to take files out of .deb files
[10:05] <v0idnull> ST47: I don't care about kde/gnome, there is a particular kde theme that I like and would like to use it on my ubuntu machine for tonight only. It's not worth replacing the OS entirely just for that :P
[10:06] <_imran_> how do i dpkg an entire folder
[10:06] <ST47> indeed.
[10:06] <MasterShrek> _imran_, not really, it can, but its used for installing deb packages, and reconfiguring them and such
[10:07] <MasterShrek> _imran_, what are you trying to accomplish? are you trying to make a deb package?
[10:07] <v0idnull> ST47: so is theme conversion easy then?
[10:07] <_imran_> well i have about 40 .deb files that i need tp install, and i dont want to do them seperately
[10:07] <kevor> anyone else ever heard of the user switch freeze?
[10:07] <MasterShrek> sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[10:08] <radioman> sudo apt-get install *
[10:08] <radioman> ;}
[10:08] <MasterShrek> sudo rm -rf /
[10:08] <MasterShrek> ^ dont use that
[10:08] <MasterShrek> =P
[10:08] <Some_ux> how do i give shutdown rights to a new user ?
[10:08] <v0idnull> I hate google sometimes. You search for "converting kde themes to gnome themes" and the second result is "Converting GNOME themes to KDE, or setting defaults - Ubuntu Forums"
[10:08] <MasterShrek> Some_ux, does it work if you copy /sbin/shutdown to /bin ?
[10:09] <foug> how can i find out if someone is hacking my wireless router?
[10:09] <Some_ux> hmm, no i meant. I have a new user which i want him to be able to run shutdown scripts
[10:09] <bluebanana> how do i know whether my tiff file is in uncompressed format?
[10:10] <_imran_> MasterShrek, that doesnt work: it says: dpkg: error processing *.deb (--install):
[10:10] <_imran_>  cannot access archive: No such file or directory
[10:10] <_imran_> Errors were encountered while processing:

[10:19] <kevor> disable SSh login, so it's no security issue
[10:19] <kevor> Pelo: old folks...
[10:19] <Pelo> shape,  your best bet in anycase , is to move your /home folder to a seperate partiton
[10:19] <MasterShrek> Random832, i dont think so, just the original

[10:19] <shape> i see
[10:20] <shape> i have one oly partiotion
[10:20] <shape> i'm not sure
[10:20] <Pelo> kevor,  you can disable the login screen in menu > system > admin > login windows( or screen) third tab I think , but it will leave the passwords for  admin functions
[10:20] <kevor> soundray: returning from sleep, locking the screen
[10:20] <soundray> shape: to go to feisty from dapper, you have to go via edgy
[10:20] <shape> oh sure
[10:20] <shape> but
[10:20] <Pelo> shape,  you can boot the live cd,  and resize your ubuntu partiion  to make room for another one

[10:23] <soundray> GregVernon: try X
[10:23] <GregVernon> using startx seems to work better, I think
[10:23] <Wooderson> need some help install avast anti virus linux edition
[10:23] <Pelo> !wifi | CurbuntuVA
[10:23] <ubotu> CurbuntuVA: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:23] <soundray> GregVernon: it's diagnostic. Just do it and tell us what it says.
[10:23] <Pelo> Wooderson,  there is a deb or a bin on the avast site
[10:24] <Wooderson> i downloaded a tar.gz
[10:24] <MasterShrek> CurbuntuVA, what kind of wifi card is it?
[10:24] <Pelo> Wooderson,  go and look for a bin or a deb it is much easier , if you can'T find one we'll tell you how to do it with a tar.gz file
[10:24] <GregVernon> soundray, I didn't get a diagnostic problem when I ran startx
[10:24] <soundray> Wooderson: are you routing email or other traffic for Windows machines?
[10:24] <hype_> Hi there :)
[10:24] <Wilson29thID> Hey gents. I've looked through the FAQ and I can't seem to find this: I am about to "evolve" to Ubuntu on my laptop, but I'm not sure that there are proper drivers for the laptop for Ubuntu. Without a driver, the internal wifi doesn't work on Windows. How do I know it will all work?
[10:24] <Wooderson> um i have no idea what your talking about
[10:25] <GregVernon> Hmm, how do I stop httpd?
[10:25] <Wooderson> lol
[10:25] <hype_> any idea about this error when compiling urxvt on gusty? http://rafb.net/p/KVNCSm45.html
[10:25] <soundray> GregVernon: okay, one more try. Run X (not startx) and see what the error message says.
[10:25] <erUSUL> Wilson29thID: try the livecd
[10:25] <MasterShrek> Wilson29thID, what kind of wifi card is it?
[10:25] <GregVernon> nvm
[10:25] <Wilson29thID> It's internal in my gateway laptop
[10:25] <Pelo> Wilson29thID,  you can lookup your model here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport , and in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org
[10:25] <shadowspider> I INSTALLED UBUNTU LINUX, BUT FOR SOME REASON I CANNOT ADMINISTRATE ANYTHING. I JUST WANT TO ADMINISTRATE INTERNET. PLEASE HELP. ABSOLUTE BEGINNER.
[10:25] <jrib> hype_: urxvt is in the repositories, there's no need to compile it
[10:25] <jrib> !caps | shadowspider
[10:25] <ubotu> shadowspider: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[10:25] <GregVernon> soundray, "Run" not found
[10:25] <MasterShrek> Wilson29thID, cant to see in device manager what the make/model is
[10:25] <Wilson29thID> sure
[10:25] <hype_> jrib , rxvt-unicode then? (i looked for urxvt)
[10:26] <eguzkia> hello why gtk-gnutella say to me that i'm beyond a UDP firewall?
[10:26] <Pelo> shadowspide what do you mean by administrate the internet ?
[10:26] <soundray> GregVernon: do you think you could just enter 'X', on a line by itself, nothing else, not even the 'quotes'?
[10:26] <jrib> hype_: yep, you got it
[10:26] <Curs0r> !pseech-dispatcher
[10:26] <Curs0r> !speech-dispatcher
[10:26] <MasterShrek> CurbuntuVA, join #MasterShrek, i have a presario and i can help you set that wireless card up
[10:26] <hype_> jrib , indeed :) Thanks
[10:26] <Wooderson> Pelo:  i fixxed it
[10:26] <soundray> shadowspider: drop the caps please.
[10:26] <GregVernon> soundray, I typed Run X
[10:26] <GregVernon> that gave me an error
[10:26] <Pelo> Wooderson, congrats

[10:27] <Pelo> Wilson29thID,  you can lookup your model here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport , and in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org
[10:27] <erUSUL> shadowspider: what means you can administrate anything? is your password not accepted when asked?
[10:27] <soundray> GregVernon: I SAID X, not "Run X"
[10:27] <Curs0r> ok, ubotu thinks I don't know it's a bot
[10:27] <Wilson29thID> All right, I'll check it out. Thanks for the help.
[10:27] <MasterShrek> Wilson29thID, it should work, with a little configuration
[10:27] <CurbuntuVA> Yes, I've been over that information.  The setup is straightforward.  The problem seems to be that the wireless antenna can't be turned on in Ubuntu.  That is to say, there's a hardware button that toggles the WiFi antenna, but it does nothing when I boot into Ubuntu.
[10:27] <shadowspider> soundray: caps gone. my apologies. I basically want to add an internet connection and add wireless network but cannot gain root buttons in menu top add connection.
[10:27] <Pelo> later folks
[10:27] <GregVernon> soundray, oh, well, either way, the X server is running
[10:27] <MasterShrek> CurbuntuVA, join #mastershrek i will help you set it up
[10:27] <soundray> !root | shadowspider
[10:27] <ubotu> shadowspider: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[10:27] <Wilson29thID> eek, I have one of those buttons too CurbuntuVA :P
[10:27] <GregVernon> As I said before, it worked earlier
[10:28] <GregVernon> but, w/e
[10:28] <rpj8> Hey guys. I'm at a University, and I cant see more than myself on the network. I know for a fact at least one other box is in the same workgroup as me.
[10:28] <shadowspider> I know, but even when acting as admin, I can't change anything/
[10:28] <MasterShrek> Wilson29thID, CurbuntuVA i am running a broadcom 4311 chip right now, it runs fine
[10:28] <soundray> GregVernon: so you get the checkered screen with an X as the mouse cursor, correct?
[10:28] <elate> !terminfo
[10:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about terminfo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:28] <GregVernon> soundray, I'm SSH'ing
[10:28] <GregVernon> I don't see anything
[10:28] <GregVernon> besides text
[10:29] <adk> Someone has experience with esmpt (the MTA)? or a better channel for this stuff?
[10:29] <adk> it's for sending 90k mails. (no spam, its to contact the sig of a petition)
[10:29] <soundray> GregVernon: what's the point of starting an X server when you can't see the graphical output?
[10:29] <CurbuntuVA> MasterShrek; I'm new to Xchat, so when you say "join #MasterC
[10:29] <CurbuntuVA> Shrek, how do I do that?
[10:29] <GregVernon> soundray, because I want to set up a VNC server
[10:29] <PP|Spydon> what shall you press no enter cheat codes when you boot the feisty cd?
[10:29] <southernman> zup people!

[10:29] <Jester_> hi guys, i've got a problem with my monitor using ubuntu. I've got an asus notebook (asus a7v) with a widescreen monitor. i don't get any signal on this monitor after the startupscreen. I only could install ubuntu because i used a second screen ("external"). my graphic card is an ati mobility radeon x700. the second problem is now: i swiched the driver vor the graphic card to the ati driver and now nothing works any more... the star
[10:30] <Jester_> can anyone help me?
[10:30] <soundray> GregVernon: then set up a VNC server. No need for startx.
[10:30] <GregVernon> should I shutdown the x server?
[10:30] <soundray> GregVernon: yes
[10:30] <GregVernon> stopx?
[10:30] <Random832> ctrl-alt-backspace
[10:30] <soundray> GregVernon: killall X
[10:30] <Wooderson> ok question i downloaded the deb file and it seemed like it installed but i cant find it anywhere =\
[10:30] <Random832> soundray: hell no.
[10:31] <Random832> that could leave the video card in an inconsistent state
[10:31] <shadowspider> soundray: any ideas?
[10:31] <soundray> Random832: go back over the conversation and understand before you jump in
[10:31] <GregVernon> wtf, it said no process killed
[10:31] <Random832> oh - sorry
[10:31] <MasterShrek> ciddy, ur really cool
[10:31] <moi> fr svp
[10:31] <soundray> GregVernon: it wasn't running then. That's fine.
[10:32] <soundray> GregVernon: run 'vncserver', then note which display it says it runs on.
[10:32] <GregVernon> soundray, well, I tried "start x" just after I did that, and it said the x server was already running
[10:32] <Jester_> first thing would be to run linux with the normal (non ati driver)
[10:32] <Elda> brb... hopefully that worked
[10:32] <Jester_> how can i do that?
[10:32] <caesar_> My sound quit working! Is there a way I can have Ubuntu set up the sound system from scratch?
[10:32] <soundray> GregVernon: you know what? Forget about that whole thing for now. Right now, let's get VNC to run. Okay?
[10:32] <PP|Spydon> which key F* key shall I use when I want to type in cheat codes when i boot the live cd?
[10:32] <GregVernon> soundray, ok
[10:33] <hype_> anyone having trouble swith updates of l-r-modules and nvidia-glx-new on gutsy?
[10:33] <soundray> shadowspider: did you read the message from ubotu? I'll get it to send you private message.
[10:33] <soundray> !root > shadowspider
[10:33] <soundray> GregVernon: run 'vncserver', then note which display it says it runs on.
[10:33] <Semidios> I have a NVIDIA Geforece 4 MX 449 AGP8X card.  Enabling the restricted drives works, but when I ALT CTRL F4 I no longer see a command prompt.  just a blank screen.  but I can input commands?  Would installing the drivers from Nvideas site work better?
[10:33] <GregVernon> "New 'X' desktop is localhost.localdomain:2"
[10:34] <caesar_> How can I reinstall my sound system?
[10:34] <leberkaes> You can also get the nvidia-driver from a (debian-)package
[10:34] <Jester_> nobody willing or able to help me?
[10:34] <GregVernon> So 2, soundray
[10:34] <soundray> GregVernon: okay. Now you want to run a gnome session on that vncserver. Correct?
[10:34] <GregVernon> yes
[10:34] <ciddy> Japan set to privatize postal system
[10:34] <ciddy> damn i wish they did that here
[10:35] <ciddy> sorry wrong channel
[10:35] <soundray> GregVernon: we need to set a variable for all X client programs to use, which will make them display on the VNC server.
[10:35] <soundray> GregVernon: the command is:
[10:35] <Semidios> leberkaes, I already downloaded the drivers from thier site.  but I can't get them to intstall.  always complains that Xwindows is running.  and when I boot into a command prompt it says something about running at level 1 and it wants level 3
[10:35] <soundray> GregVernon: export DISPLAY=:2
[10:36] <GregVernon> ok
[10:36] <soundray> GregVernon: after that run 'gnome-session' and you should have a gnome session on your VNC server
[10:36] <vinicius> #uberaba
[10:36] <shadowspider> soundray: thank you for your help. hopefully this solves my prob. Is there anyway to add a broadband connection via terminal.
[10:37] <ckrough> !dnsmasq  > ckrough
[10:37] <GregVernon> uhm, ok, now what?
[10:37] <soundray> shadowspider: yes, you can configure network connections via the /etc/network/interfaces file. Try man interfaces
[10:37] <ckrough> Hi all. Im running dnsmasq and it keeps returning 127.0.1.1 for the hostname for the server. Anyone know how to make it pick the correct IP?
[10:37] <caesar_> "No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found." Help!
[10:37] <riyonuk> Does 57hz = 75?
[10:37] <Jester_> my system doesn't boot fully after i switched to the ati driver. it stops befor ariving the login screen.
[10:37] <Jester_> now i would like to run linux with the normal (non ati driver) again. how can i do that (from the shell)?
[10:38] <WOLFAR> hi all
[10:38] <soundray> GregVernon: start your vncclient on the local machine and connect to the vncserver
[10:38] <jaypro> quick question!  i forgot the root & superuser password, so i followed directions to change the root password.  now i need to know how to change the superuser password
[10:38] <WOLFAR> can i ask somthing
[10:38] <shadowspider> soundray: thank you. will return in a while with verdict. Cheers! Have a good day!
[10:38] <soundray> WOLFAR: you already have.
[10:38] <caesar_> WOLFAR: no! (of cours eyou can)
[10:38] <ckrough> jaypro: root is superuser
[10:38] <FACA> simona
[10:38] <GregVernon> I need to configure it to use port 80
[10:38] <soundray> jaypro: no, you don't
[10:38] <GregVernon> how would I go about doing that?
[10:38] <soundray> !sudo | jaypro
[10:38] <ubotu> jaypro: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:39] <WOLFAR>  i now studying  linux
[10:39] <jaypro> ckrough> when i say superuser, i am refering to the login and pass that was entered when installing ubuntu
[10:39] <kbrooks> !test
[10:39] <ubotu> Failed.
[10:39] <ckrough> Hi all. Im running dnsmasq and it keeps returning 127.0.1.1 for the hostname for the server. Anyone know how to make it pick the correct IP?
[10:39] <leberkaes> passwd changes passwords of users
[10:39] <WOLFAR>  i need some projects
[10:39] <tat> ckrough: check your /etc/hosts
[10:39] <WOLFAR> can one help
[10:39] <soundray> GregVernon: have you installed a vnc client on the local machine?
[10:39] <sceo> Trying to connect to a WPA network with my bcm43xx doesn't work.  It hangs (network-manager spins and spins, then times out).
[10:40] <ckrough> jaypro: ah, that would be your normal user. try 'su -' and enter the root password, if that works you can then 'passwd _username_' where _username_ is the normal/default account
[10:40] <GregVernon> the local machine I am on now, or the server?
[10:40] <GregVernon> because I have tightvnc on my current machine
[10:40] <GregVernon> and I think vncviewer is installed with vncserver
[10:40] <ckrough> tat: yes, 127.0.1.1 is there, but if you remove it ubuntu gets very very angry, I have an additional line with the networked IP of the server, but it's not returning that one
[10:40] <jaypro> ahh okay thanks ckrough, all
[10:40] <soundray> GregVernon: run 'vncviewer server:2' (replace "server" appropriately)
[10:40] <m-reek> #vgr
[10:41] <Jester_> my system doesn't boot fully after i switched to the ati driver. it stops befor ariving the login screen.
[10:41] <Jester_> now i would like to run linux with the normal (non ati driver) again. how can i do that (from the shell)?
[10:41] <ckrough> jaypro: I am not sure if 'su -' will work, havent used it on ubumtu, but it's the only thing I can think of. good luck
[10:41] <tat> ckrough: additional line? try to have the networked ip as second argument on the first line
[10:41] <sebastian> does anybody know how to add an arbitrary character when a key + alt is pressed on the keyboard?
[10:41] <tat> ckrough: no, wait, dont listen to me
[10:41] <sebastian> i know i can add the  sign, but i also want the pound (british pound) sign
[10:42] <GuestRezel> hello guys
[10:43] <riyonuk> When I updated, why is there 2 entries for Ubuntu instead of 1?
[10:43] <GuestRezel> is anyone in here can answer me
[10:43] <bonbonce> hi
[10:43] <sceo> anyone encounter trying to get WPA to work with a bcm43xx using native kernel drivers with downloaded firmware?
[10:43] <andruk> GuestRezel: !hello
[10:43] <andruk> GuestRezel: whats the question?
[10:44] <Semidios> So I am installing the nvidia-glx-legacy package.  what do i do next?
[10:44] <Jester_> can anyone help me?
[10:44] <MasterShrek> sceo, me
[10:44] <Jester_> i'm really fu**ed
[10:44] <kitche> riyonuk: different kernel your old one just gets pushed to the bottom of the menu and the new one stays at the top
[10:44] <soundray> sebastian: Shift-Ctrl-u a 3
[10:44] <ckrough> tat: unfortunaly dnsmasq still sees both and it 'round robins' the results
[10:44] <GuestRezel> i cant find ma bluetooth device in device database am new in using ubuntu btw
[10:44] <MasterShrek> Jester_, watch your language, and ask your question
[10:44] <riyonuk> So..like can I delete it?
[10:44] <tat> ckrough: aha
[10:44] <Jester_> i did
[10:44] <Jester_> my system doesn't boot fully after i switched to the ati driver. it stops befor ariving the login screen.
[10:44] <Jester_>  now i would like to run linux with the normal (non ati driver) again. how can i do that (from the shell)?
[10:44] <sebastian> soundray: what do you mean?
[10:45] <Jester_> and i asterixed the language ;)
[10:45] <soundray> sebastian: what I said.
[10:45] <GregVernon> god dammit
[10:45] <MasterShrek> Jester_, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf     change the driver from fglrx to ati or vesa
[10:45] <soundray> sebastian: what's the problem?
[10:45] <soundray> !language | GregVernon
[10:45] <sebastian> soundray: i pressed what you said, nothing happens
[10:45] <ubotu> GregVernon: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:45] <GregVernon> sorry
[10:45] <tat> ckrough: tru using 127.0.0.1 instead of 127.0.1.1, shouldent be any difference for the system, but I think dnsmasq should filter it out
[10:45] <andruk> is there a way (using grep) to limit the amount of syslog data i have to go through (i want something that has to do with the nvidia driver)?
[10:45] <sebastian> soundray: i want the british pound sign to appear when i press say alt+3
[10:45] <GregVernon> I figured that was the best way to show my extreme anger
[10:45] <sirrus> Good evening everyone, anyone using Gutsy Beta and rt2500 here?
[10:45] <Jester_>  MasterShrek, thanks
[10:46] <ckrough> tat: I tried removing 127.0.1.1 and it was... bad, you cant login if you remove it
[10:46] <sceo> mastershrek; so what I'm seeing is that when I put in the password (WPA passphrase/psk) it tries to connect, but just hangs and then times out.
[10:46] <soundray> sebastian: in what environment? gnome-terminal?
[10:46] <MasterShrek> sceo, where are you putting that in at?
[10:46] <MasterShrek> network manager?
[10:46] <tat> ckrough: try to have 127.0.0.1 localhost and <networkip> yourhostname
[10:46] <ckrough> tat: I think Im gonna force the IP in dnsmasq.conf with 'address=/servername/xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
[10:46] <sebastian> soundray: i am not fussy about the terminal, but it would be nice if it was gnome-wide
[10:46] <Jester_> mastershrek: and now the second, perhaps harder part: I've got an asus notebook (asus a7v) with a widescreen monitor. i don't get any signal on this monitor after the startupscreen. I only could install ubuntu because i used a second screen ("external"). my graphic card is an ati mobility radeon x700.
[10:46] <andruk> GregVernon: i know how you feel.  very few people come here for help that are happy theyve found a problem.  Know what I'm saying?
[10:46] <GregVernon> Ok, sorry about that
[10:47] <ckrough> tat: do you have a 127.0.1.1 in there?
[10:47] <sceo> mastershrek; yes, network-manager
[10:47] <ckrough> shrek
[10:47] <MasterShrek> sceo, i dont know how network manager works, i use command line
[10:47] <tat> ckrough: I only got 127.0.0.1 in my config
[10:47] <GregVernon> andruk, yeah, I know.  It's not something I look forward too
[10:47] <MasterShrek> ckrough, ?
[10:47] <ckrough> tat: what version? Im running 7.04
[10:47] <ckrough> MasterShrek: just saying hi
[10:47] <tat> ckrough: same here
[10:47] <GregVernon> soundray, I'm still having a few issues
[10:47] <BUDD}{A> ok can someone tell me were i get them things that almost everyone has that are in the right side of the desktop that tell you your cpu status and ram and so on
[10:47] <MasterShrek> hola! ckrough
[10:47] <sirrus> Is rt2500 working in Gutsy yet, or is it still broken as it was when the Beta image was released?
[10:47] <soundray> sebastian: hold Shift and Ctrl, keep them down. Then press u <release> a <release> 3<release>. If you haven't got a pound sign by then, hit Enter.
[10:47] <ckrough> tat: I lied, my server is 6.06LTS
[10:48] <MasterShrek> no idea Jester_ i stick to nvidia :)
[10:48] <bascule> BUDD}{A: gdeslets or gkrellm
[10:48] <leberkaes> MasterShrek: Thats my word ;-)
[10:48] <soundray> GregVernon: describe them to the channel please.
[10:48] <Jester_> MasterShrek, you mean i should use the nvidia driver?
[10:48] <bascule> BUDD}{A: gdeklets sorry, mis-spelled
[10:48] <sebastian> soundray: oh i see what you mean
[10:48] <GregVernon> ok, give me a second
[10:48] <BUDD}{A> thats
[10:48] <tat> ckrough: shouldnt be any difference, as whole 127.0.0.0/8 points to lo interface
[10:48] <BUDD}{A> thanks
[10:48] <leberkaes> Jester_: Lets buy a nvidia-card
[10:48] <MasterShrek> Jester_, not if u have an ati card
[10:48] <sebastian> soundray: thanks that should be useful
[10:48] <Jester_> MasterShrek, damn ;)
[10:48] <bascule> BUDD}{A: gdesklets  i lost my s there ;(
[10:48] <sebastian> soundray: it works
[10:49] <tim__> hi guys i keep getting this message The APT Database could not be opened! This may be caused by incorrect APT configuration or some similar problem. Try running apt-setup and apt-get update in terminal and see if it helps to resolve the problem.
[10:49] <leberkaes> Jester_: ATI doesnt like Linux too much
[10:49] <Jester_> can't change my laptop like this...
[10:49] <Tomcat_> leberkaes: Lately, they do.
[10:49] <Jester_> i had sabayon (linux) runing
[10:49] <soundray> sebastian: you can look up the codes in man iso_8859_1 in the Hex column.
[10:49] <Jester_> no problem with that
[10:49] <sceo> mastershrek- i tried using wpa_supplicant.conf and /etc/network/interfaces, too -- but running wpa_supplicant command-line doesn't work
[10:49] <leberkaes> Tomcat: Yes, lately... you are right
[10:49] <Jester_> but ubuntu doesn't like it
[10:49] <sirrus> One last try, in case the previous ones got lost in the sea of messages :) :Does anyone know whether rt2500 is working (with WPA) with the current snapshot of gutsy?
[10:50] <sebastian> soundray: oh ok, cool ... cheers for that
[10:50] <GregVernon> Alright, I think I got X stopped
[10:50] <MasterShrek> sceo, why doesnt it work? if it doesnt work command line, then its not going to work gui, the gui uses the same command
[10:50] <bascule> sirrus: ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:50] <GregVernon> Alright, I'm still trying to set up the VNC server, but I needs to be using port 80
[10:50] <sceo> mastershrek: wext: custom wireless event: 'associating failed'
[10:50] <Jester_> well, i'll try to get it back running and then hopp in here again... c u
[10:50] <GregVernon> when I try to connect from my local computer to the server, it doesn't seem to like it
[10:50] <MasterShrek> sceo, did u put the correct essid in wpa_supplicant.conf ?
[10:51] <ckrough> tat: I wonder why ubuntu put 127.0.1.1 in there
[10:51] <sceo> mastershrek; yeah, I think so -- it's just my network name, yes?
[10:51] <MasterShrek> yea sceo if it has spaces in it you have to use 'name of network'
[10:52] <sceo> mastershrek; it's a desktop, not a laptop - so I'm more than happy to hardcode a configuration.  no spaces in the broadcast id -- 'its530somewhere'
[10:52] <soundray> GregVernon: how are you trying to connect?
[10:52] <BUDD}{A> ok were can i get them
[10:53] <sceo> mastershrek; I've been following the howto here (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo) and got to the point where it says "You should see something like the following, but more verbose (if you get a different result, append -dd to the above command line and ask someone on #ubuntu for help)" ;)  so here I am...
[10:53] <GregVernon> just with a VNC client from my local computer
[10:53] <BUDD}{A> nm i love ubuntu
[10:53] <GregVernon> not on the server machine
[10:53] <soundray> GregVernon: what's between your local machine and the server -- just a LAN or routers and stuff?
[10:53] <GregVernon> The world wide webs
[10:54] <soundray> GregVernon: that's a nonsensical reply, but I think I know what you mean.
[10:54] <ckrough> Anyone know why ubuntu puts 127.0.1.1 in the /etc/hosts file, and what I can do to stop dnsmasq from using it?
[10:54] <MasterShrek> sceo, im not sure, does the card work if its not using wpa?
[10:54] <furenku> Hey! My laptops ethernet is not working properly, sometimes it does, and sometimes not... any ideas on how to fix this?
[10:54] <GregVernon> soundray, Yeah, sorry.  I've seen too many lolcats today
[10:54] <ckrough> furenku: does it always show as configured with an IP? are you static or dhcp?
[10:55] <furenku> dkrough, dhcp
[10:55] <furenku> ckrough, dhcp
[10:55] <usser> ckrough: otherwise your network wont work ))
[10:55] <ckrough> furenku: and when its not working, does it show an ip when you use /sbin/ifconfig?
[10:55] <furenku> ckrough, ill see
[10:55] <soundray> GregVernon: you need to set up an ssh tunnel for vnc. That's beyond me, but there must be plenty of how-to instructions on the web. I think tightvnc even comes with the functionality.
[10:55] <ckrough> usser: right your are, but I cant find documentation on it's purpose
[10:55] <sceo> mastershrek; I wish I could answer that - but I only have access to this wpa network
[10:56] <usser> ckrough: 127.0.0.1 is your own comp address, and usually all network apps use it
[10:56] <leberkaes> with ifconfig you always see your ip, no matter if the network around you is working
[10:56] <usser> ckrough: servers etc by default
[10:56] <MasterShrek> sceo, can you remove the wpa encryption temporarily?
[10:56] <GregVernon> soundray, problem, I need to use port 80 simply because that's what my firewall will allow for right now
[10:56] <ckrough> usser: 127.0.1.1 is the one I am referring to. ubuntu 6.06lts puts it in /etc/hosts
[10:56] <sceo> mastershrek; but discovery works (like I can scan and see various wireless networks in the area) - which makes me think the card itself is working.  it just can't get on the network with wpa.
[10:56] <soundray> GregVernon: you might ask the channel again -- "how do I setup an ssh tunnel for VNC', but I suggest you have a look through /usr/share/doc/tightvnc first and do a web search
[10:56] <usser> ckrough: yes that is supposed to be there )
[10:56] <riyonuk> Where do I get the nvidia-settings program?
[10:56] <usser> ckrough: do u have some problems with it or what?
[10:56] <MasterShrek> sceo, yea im not really sure, i havent used wpa for awhile, but it used to work pretty easily
[10:56] <sceo> mastershrek; I guess I will have to -- but I have neighbors sharing my connection so would prefer not to have to turn it off.  I'll try starting an ad-hoc network with my laptop and seeing if they can join
[10:57] <soundray> GregVernon: if right now you're ssh'ing into the remote machine, tunneling will take care of the ports problem as well.
[10:57] <ckrough> usser: do you what it's for? yes, dnsmasq returns it when resolving the servers short name
[10:57] <sceo> yeah, my laptop running ubuntu connects beautifully to the WPA - just my desktop won't (laptop has ipw, not bcm)
[10:57] <GregVernon> Oh, so, I can VNC right to my SSH server?
[10:58] <usser> ckrough: heh, it a way for your machine to refer to itself even when it has no network connection it always knows what its called, sort of like. who am i?
[10:58] <MasterShrek> riyonuk, did you install an nvidia driver? it should come with it
[10:58] <riyonuk> I think so, I enabled the restriced driver thing
[10:58] <soundray> GregVernon: no, the principle is this: you forward a port on your server via ssh, so that it appears like a port on the local machine. Then if you connect to that pseudo-local port, the VNC server on remote will respond.
[10:58] <GregVernon> Well, I mean, my firewall on the server
[10:59] <GregVernon> I only have a few ports opened up
[10:59] <MasterShrek> riyonuk, i dont install my nvidia driver that way, but ive heard that program should be there using that
[10:59] <ckrough> usser: ubuntu is the first distro I've seen do that, I removed it once but then sudo/logins break. I just need the dnsmasq to ignore that 127.0.1.1 address somehow so that it returns the proper one
[10:59] <soundray> GregVernon: well, the ssh port is open, so just use that.
[10:59] <riyonuk> MasterShrek, why? Is it bad or something?
[10:59] <GregVernon> how does one do that?  seeing as I need to SSH in to use the server?
[11:00] <soundray> GregVernon: like I said, I don't know enough to hold your hand through the process. Please do your own research.
[11:00] <usser> ckrough: wow strange to hear it, even windows uses loopback/127.0.0.1 address its like a cornerstone of tcp/ip
[11:00] <NotSure> my firefox does not have working back and forward buttons unless i execute the following script: #!/bin/bash
[11:00] <NotSure> xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 6 7 10 11"
[11:00] <ckrough> usser: its 127.0.1.1
[11:00] <MasterShrek> riyonuk, i dont know, it jsut seems easier to me, and im used to it now
[11:00] <NotSure> how can i make it run on startup?
[11:00] <Love> join the room
[11:00] <riyonuk> Could you guide me?
[11:00] <ckrough> usser: in addition to 127.0.0.1. 127.0.0.1 isnt causes any issues, it's the 1.1 that creeping me out
[11:00] <Elipsis> jeez how do you read from this i expected to be more like mirc
[11:00] <hinogi> I have a problem with xournal, when i rotate the desktop and write i only see some dots along the trail i'm writing, when its not rotate i see the full line
[11:01] <ckrough> usser: I just removed it and left the static IP entry for that serve rin there... see what happends
[11:01] <sirrus> NotSure: You put it in your .profile file
[11:01] <GregVernon> soundray, I'm just saying, using the SSH port seems like a general bad idea
[11:01] <NotSure> where is that sirrus?
[11:01] <furenku> ckrough, it seems i do have an IP
[11:01] <soundray> NotSure: interesting one... I suggest you just add it to $HOME/.gnomerc so it will be run on login.
[11:01] <sirrus> NotSure: In your home direcotry
[11:01] <Elipsis> can anyone help me find a graphic driver?
[11:01] <furenku> i even get the "connection established" dialog, but then, firefox doesn't work
[11:01] <NotSure> sirrus hold on
[11:01] <Love> 28 f here
[11:01] <MasterShrek> riyonuk, http://studentweb.stcloudstate.edu/pada0401/v3015nr.ubuntu.7.04.html theres a guide for it toward the bottom of that link
[11:01] <sirrus> NotSure: In mine it is /home/sirrus/.profile
[11:01] <erUSUL> !anyone | Elipsis
[11:01] <ubotu> Elipsis: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[11:01] <sceo> how can I find out what version I'm running... I think I'm running edgy and maybe an upgrade to feisty would help
[11:02] <soundray> sceo: cat /etc/lsb-release
[11:02] <sirrus> sceo: umask -a
[11:02] <NotSure> sirrus, where in .profile i have to enter the line?
[11:02] <MasterShrek> riyonuk, its the same install procedure except if you are running 32 bit u need the 32 bit driver
[11:02] <Elipsis> where can i find a g force driver
[11:02] <soundray> sirrus: umask?
[11:02] <sceo> thanks.  turns out it's feisty.
[11:02] <sirrus> NotSure: Just append it to the end.
[11:02] <usser> ckrough: wow hm my bad, hm strange i never noticed it, heh dunno what is it )
[11:02] <riyonuk> Umm x86?
[11:02] <soundray> !nvidia ? Elipsis
[11:02] <kitche> Elipsis: from the restricted manager but what geforce card do you have?
[11:02] <soundray> !nvidia | Elipsis
[11:02] <ubotu> Elipsis: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:02] <riyonuk> Oh I see
[11:02] <Love> http://amigos.com/go/g885576-pmem daily earn up to 1000$
[11:03] <riyonuk> Umm GPU version?
[11:03] <ckrough> usser: hmm, it's working fine with 127.0.1.1 removed. Maybe it's only necessary if you have no other IP listed for the servers name... so: localhost 127.0.0.1 and servername x.x.x.x, or servername 127.0.1.1 if it has no network card. It's working now, so Im rolling with it
[11:03] <NotSure> sirrus thanks
[11:03] <sirrus> soundray: lol, sorry, "uname -a"
[11:03] <sirrus> NotSure: no problem :)
[11:03] <feliciano> I'm trying to make work vlc over firefox in gutsy... but doesnt work please help me
[11:03] <todd_> I could use some help getting my wireless internet connection to work
[11:03] <furenku> My Laptop's ethernet is not working well, sometimes it does, sometimes not...  i even get the "connection established" dialog when i plug the cord in, but then, firefox doesn't work
[11:03] <Elipsis> is there another irc client that shows the text wihotut all these numbers i can't read a thing
[11:03] <Elipsis> ?
[11:04] <soundray> !wifi | todd_, read this, then ask specific questions.
[11:04] <ubotu> todd_, read this, then ask specific questions.: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:04] <ckrough> furenku: that could be DNS, can you still ping IP addresses (not hostnames... IP addresses only)
[11:04] <usser> Elipsis: what client u use?
[11:04] <Elipsis> x chat
[11:04] <usser> Elipsis: bitchx is pretty cool
[11:04] <ckrough> furenku: if you can ping IPs and not hostnames, then you have DNS issues
[11:04] <kitche> Elipsis: just turn off the timestamp in the client
[11:04] <riyonuk> MasterShrek, shouldnt the driver be...like for my monitor?
[11:04] <sirrus> Elipsis: I'm using xchat-gnome and it's perfectly readable
[11:04] <ckrough> furenku: try pinging google at 64.233.187.99
[11:04] <riyonuk> Or does one driver work for everybody >.>
[11:04] <MasterShrek> no riyonuk, for your graphics card
[11:05] <riyonuk> Ok
[11:05] <linux26> How can I configure tv-out with my ATI Mobility M6 LY gfx card, on my Dell C610 laptop (i'm using Gutsy)?
[11:05] <riyonuk> MasterShrek, shouldnt the driver be...like for my graphics card?
[11:05] <Elipsis> much better now
[11:05] <soundray> !tvout | linux26
[11:05] <ubotu> linux26: 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*)
[11:05] <soundray> !gutsy | linux26
[11:05] <ubotu> linux26: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[11:05] <linux26> ubotu: ok thx
[11:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ok thx - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:05] <MasterShrek> riyonuk, all the drivers from nvidia for linux are the same i think
[11:06] <Elipsis> ok i opened the help but i have no idea what it says
[11:06] <BoNe> Inspiron 9300 with ipw220 (2915abg) wireless, static ip & WPA-PSK. anyone have any pointers to get working except the stuff on the website, as it doesnt work.
[11:06] <Elipsis> what are all those xx driver
[11:06] <riyonuk> oh ok
[11:06] <MasterShrek> riyonuk, they only have one there at least lol
[11:07] <riyonuk> :D
[11:07] <usser> ckrough: i dunno i see no reason for 127.0.1.1 to be there
[11:07] <Elipsis> whats up with the legacy drivers?
[11:07] <Elipsis> what are those for?
[11:07] <MasterShrek> Elipsis, theyre just outdated drivers
[11:08] <MasterShrek> sometimes older drivers work better with older hardware
[11:08] <tim__> The document could not be saved, as it was not possible to write to file:///etc/apt/sources.list.
[11:08] <Elipsis> well how the hell do i find the right driver how do i know which one si it
[11:08] <tim__> how do  i save it???????
[11:08] <ckrough> usser: I removed it. Last time I removed it I couldn't log in, had to boot from live and replace it, we'll see... I rarely log into the console on that one so I'm not gonna bother testing it now
[11:09] <todd_> My wireless extension is recognized, and i have the option of enabling the connection in my network options, but for some reason i'm not picking up a connection
[11:09] <todd_> i entered in the network name, wep key, etc, and it's not connecting to the internet unless i go through my ethernet port.
[11:09] <usser> ckrough: did u also put your host name on the line with 127.0.0.1
[11:09] <ckrough> furenku: any luck?
[11:09] <soundray> tim__: you can't write the file if you've opened it as user. Save it to your home directory, then open a terminal and copy it to the destination directory like this:
[11:09] <NotSure> please let me know where should i go to find out about linux tv tuner drivers (like Dell Angel TV Tuner)
[11:09] <ckrough> usser: no sir
[11:09] <usser> ckrough: i think it really belongs there
[11:09] <ckrough> usser: ahh
[11:09] <soundray> tim__: sudo cp $HOME/sources.list /etc/apt/
[11:09] <the9a3eedi> hello. I'm trying to install ubuntu on my external hdd. hard disk is sdb1, so I told the installer to install the bootload in (sdb0) .. is this right?
[11:10] <BoNe> the9a3eedi, no its sdb0,0 for the first partition
[11:10] <the9a3eedi> interesting.
[11:10] <ckrough> usser: done. and dnsmasq must be smart enough to ignore the 127 entry. problem solved. thankx
[11:11] <soundray> the9a3eedi: no, BoNe got mixed up here
[11:11] <NotSure> are there TV tuner drivers for Dell Angel TV  tuner in ubuntu? the device is not being assigned any driver
[11:11] <BoNe> the9a3eedi, that might work as well, as it would hopefully default to the first partition. but its actual designation is what I said.
[11:11] <Elipsis> how do i join another network with this like undernet?
[11:11] <BoNe> soundray, opps, fatfinger. sdb1,0
[11:11] <the9a3eedi> BoNe: in any case, all the files are installed. Just the bootloader isn't installed properly. is it possible to install it from another linux disttro?
[11:11] <bascule> NotSure: it al depends on the cip on the card, lspci shold show you
[11:11] <Lifeisfunny> eliphas_, are you using xchat?
[11:11] <soundray> BoNe: still not correct ( the9a3eedi)
[11:11] <BoNe> the9a3eedi read what I just typed. fatfingered it nicely. been dealing with my sdb0 earlier today
[11:11] <the9a3eedi> I've got a gentoo-based distro
[11:12] <BoNe> soundray, how so?
[11:12] <todd_> so i need help with this wireless card working, it shows that i have a wireless extension and i have the option of entering my network info, etc, but it's not connecting unless i have a wired connection
[11:12] <NotSure> bascule: it is external USB
[11:12] <Elipsis> yeap x chat
[11:12] <Lifeisfunny> just hit that other network in the network list
[11:12] <soundray> BoNe: it looks like you want to use the grub (hurd) notation. That's (hd1,0) for the first partition on the second disk.
[11:12] <NotSure> bascule, USB hotplug
[11:12] <bascule> NotSure: ouch, try lsud
[11:13] <BoNe> soundray, the9a3eedi... oh ya.. heheh
[11:13] <todd_> help?
[11:13] <bascule> NotSure: try lsusb, there is a chip in this, but usb tv tuner is gonna be tough
[11:13] <BoNe> Inspiron 9300 with ipw220 (2915abg) wireless, static ip & WPA-PSK. anyone have any pointers to get working except the stuff on the website, as it doesnt work.
[11:13] <the9a3eedi> soundray: I see... in any case.. I'm running another linux distro. is it possible to fix the bootloader from here?
[11:13] <Elipsis> how do i connect to undernet via x chat?
[11:13] <NotSure> bascule, why tough?
[11:14] <soundray> the9a3eedi: I haven't got a clear picture of your setup, so I can't answer that.
[11:14] <ray_> !beta
[11:14] <bascule> cause devices on the end of usb cables are usually non-standard
[11:14] <the9a3eedi> soundray: what do you need to know?
[11:14] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon (7.10) *BETA* information and release notes can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon/Beta - If you regularly update, then you're running the latest version - ISOs and Torrents at http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/ - It is development software and as such unstable, support ONLY in #ubuntu+1
[11:14] <soundray> the9a3eedi: in any case, don't install grub on the USB disk, unless you know that you can make your BIOS boot from it.
[11:14] <the9a3eedi> soundray: I can.
[11:14] <Lifeisfunny> Elipsis, like you got on the Freenode network,  just open the list and scroll to the bottom and high light Undernet and hit conenct in the bottom right of the window
[11:15] <Elipsis> wish i knew how i got here when i stared this this chat opened so where do i choose
[11:15] <Lifeisfunny> menubar XChat // Network List
[11:15] <cdp> hey anybody here who can answer a questoin about k3b/wodim?
[11:16] <the9a3eedi> soundray: I am pretty sure I can. Is it possible to fix the bootloader for the external hard disk from the linux distro I'm using now?
[11:16] <linux26> cdp: ask the question first
[11:16] <soundray> the9a3eedi: that's good then. I'm not sure, however, what the correct grub name for the partition will be. Although it's now /dev/sdb, which indicates that it's the second disk in the system, it may turn into the first when the BIOS is told to boot from it.
[11:16] <Lifeisfunny> eliphas_, right click on the mouse in the channel window here and find XChat ..... then Network List
[11:16] <cdp> so when wodim goes to write a disc, it looks like everything works but then the disc is blank
[11:16] <Elipsis> ok i opened it somehow but where;s the connect buton
[11:16] <Lifeisfunny> bottom right
[11:16] <NotSure> can anybody tell me good IRC channel for linux ubuntu drivers? like for TV tuners?
[11:16] <the9a3eedi> soundray: if that's the case, I could always change grub.conf right?
[11:16] <soundray> the9a3eedi: does that "other" distribution use grub?
[11:17] <ckrough> .
[11:17] <bascule> cdp: sure its not simulation mode?
[11:17] <cdp> i am sure
[11:17] <soundray> the9a3eedi: yes, if you still have a way to boot the system.
[11:17] <cdp> i even used wodim on cli with just an iso image
[11:17] <the9a3eedi> soundray: yup . Sabayon
[11:17] <cdp> doesn't matter if k3b tries to do audio
[11:17] <soundray> the9a3eedi: not grub.conf -- /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:17] <Lifeisfunny> eliphas_, ya got it?
[11:17] <cdp> or whatever, it's always blank
[11:17] <bascule> cdp: are you trying to burn using dev=/dev/scd0 ?
[11:17] <cdp> yes it autodetects /dev/scd0
[11:18] <Lifeisfunny> elipsis, ya got it?
[11:18] <bascule> cdp: try cdrecord -vv dev=/dev/scd0 speed=8 -dao the.iso
[11:18] <furenku> ckrough, i did the ping on google, how can i know whether it worked?
[11:18] <cdp> tried that
[11:18] <the9a3eedi> soundray: in any case. I want to install grub in /dev/sdb.. how do I do it from here?
[11:18] <terlmann> how do I back up my GNUPG keys ?
[11:18] <Elipsis> i found the undernet but can't connect to it
[11:18] <bascule> cdp: and this burner works in other OS's?
[11:19] <soundray> the9a3eedi: the process goes something like this: mount the root partition that's on the external drive and run 'grub-install --root-directory /mnt /dev/sdb'
[11:19] <cdp> it works in windows xp
[11:19] <cdp> it's a tsst
[11:19] <soundray> the9a3eedi: unless grub-install is debian/ubuntu-specific, which I'm not sure about.
[11:19] <bascule> cdp: I got no idea then, really, it thinks it works, but no laser ... odd
[11:19] <the9a3eedi> soundray: nah..
[11:19] <the9a3eedi> soundray: I got grub-install here..
[11:19] <coax> is there someone who know the vim command for editing another file when having more than one file open??
[11:19] <cdp> yeah -vv shows everything working as normal... even goes to do leadout and all
[11:20] <cdp> coax :e
[11:20] <the9a3eedi> soundray: so wait.. I mount it first? I thought you
[11:20] <asobi> coax: :sp
[11:20] <the9a3eedi> soundray: were supposed to unmount it
[11:20] <asobi> or :vsp
[11:20] <cdp> oops yeah, sorry asobi's right
[11:20] <BoNe> coax :n
[11:20] <soundray> the9a3eedi: just do a quick man grub-install to see if the --root-directory syntax is correct -- it may need a = in place of the space
[11:20] <BoNe> wait, doenst :n work?
[11:21] <cdp> bascule, so what else can i do to check why the laser doesn't turn on?
[11:21] <the9a3eedi> hmm. ok I'll see about that
[11:21] <the9a3eedi> thanks for the help ^__^
[11:21] <soundray> the9a3eedi: no, you need ubuntu's menu.lst accessible, so the system can boot independently of the internal hard disk
[11:21] <bascule> cdp: -immed option is one
[11:21] <Creed> Is it possible to use the pixie instructions on the wiki for server install (rather than alternate)?
[11:21] <asobi> so fyi, and I know this isn't the right place to report it, but the gutsy installer fails silently when a windows partition is given a mount point

[11:23] <ali4728> Help ! I got new corporate laptop from my work which we are not allowed to install any extra software. However I would like to use Firefox instead of IE and T-bird for my non-work email.

[11:24] <soundray> PP|Spydon: sudo fdisk -l

[11:24] <BoNe> ali4728: most of the portable apps I have seen are not open source :)
[11:25] <furenku> could there be some incompatibility between nvidia drivers and the ethernet connection??? since i installed the drivers, i cant rely on being able to connect via ethernet!
[11:25] <ali4728> BoNe: mine are
[11:25] <BoNe> ali4728: are they linux or windows based?
[11:25] <PP|Spydon> thc soundray

[11:25] <SkiGuy> hey all - how do I change my default window manager in a remote session? I can't see the logon screen so I can't change it (I'm in Fluxbox, want Gnome back)
[11:26] <soundray> the9a3eedi: that's right, you didn't complete the ubuntu installation on it, did you?
[11:26] <the9a3eedi> soundray: nope
[11:26] <soundray> the9a3eedi: you can probably use the Sabayon one and adapt it
[11:27] <jepes> hi, i install my ubuntu on the last part of the disk in a logical partition, i would want to expand it from 3Gb to 13 Gb, my HD's layout is XP:15GB,VISTA:20GB,DATA(NTFS):32GB, LOGICAL (EXT3:3GB,SWAP:320MB)
[11:27] <jester_> hi, back again. the graphic driver change worked
[11:27] <GregVernon> bbib
[11:27] <tim__> The document could not be saved, as it was not possible to write to file:///etc/apt/sources.list.
[11:27] <tim__> Check that you have write access to this file or that enough disk space is available.
[11:27] <furenku> i am not having traffic via ethernet, i get a "connection established" dialog, but no traffic
[11:27] <soundray> tim__: did you read what I said earlier?
[11:27] <usser> tim__: u have to open it as a priviliged user
[11:28] <jester_> does anybody now has a clue how to get my primary screen (at ma laptop) working instead of the second (external)tft?
[11:28] <mwright1> hi
[11:28] <usser> tim__: gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list edit it and then save
[11:28] <mwright1> just wandering if Gutsy GIbbon beta is connected to the same repository as the release
[11:28] <mwright1> so If I develop my LTSP test environment will it work
[11:28] <Eleaf> hey
[11:28] <soundray> secion8: please ask in #ubuntu+1
[11:28] <mwright1> also does it include a xen kernel
[11:28] <soundray> mwright1: please ask in #ubuntu+1
[11:29] <Eleaf> what's a good 'hang out' channel?
[11:29] <jester_> i can see the ubuntu progress bar, but when i want to log in, the laptop wents black
[11:29] <mwright1> soudray: are you joking?
[11:29] <soundray> Eleaf: #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:29] <XdorotaX> how do i burn a .exe file onto a cd-rw disk?
[11:29] <soundray> mwright1: what makes you think that?
[11:29] <XdorotaX> every time i try it doesn't work
[11:29] <Eleaf> soundray, I can't, I was banned from there like a year ago?..
[11:29] <mwright1> ok it's real -- past experience on irc
[11:29] <radioman> ;] 
[11:30] <Eleaf> soundray, any other ideas?
[11:30] <secion8> soundray: ok, thanks
[11:30] <soundray> Eleaf: go to #ubuntu-ops and grovel
[11:31] <Eleaf> soundray, I'd rather not.
[11:31] <Eleaf> soundray, (I already have a bunch in the past)
[11:31] <Eleaf> soundray, .. I'm banned from #ubuntu-ops..
[11:31] <jester_> (and my external screen has just a resolution of 800x600 - why ever...)
[11:31] <Eleaf> that's strange
[11:32] <punsad> XdorotaX: what software are you using?
[11:32] <XdorotaX> punsad: gnome baker
[11:32] <punsad> XdorotaX: and what do you mean 'it doesn't work' - you mean that when you go to try to run the exe on a windows box, it doesn't run?
[11:32] <Eleaf> soundray, oh well, do you know of any other places?  The main channels are too crowded
[11:32] <soundray> Eleaf: try the big chatroom with the stars on the ceiling. It even has pubs and beer.
[11:32] <punsad> XdorotaX: how do you know it is a good executable file?
[11:33] <Eleaf> soundray, ? ;P
[11:33] <ghosteam> hi
[11:33] <soundray> Eleaf: sometimes also referred to as RL or Real Life
[11:33] <Eleaf> soundray, right
[11:33] <XdorotaX> even when i try to use the disk with the files on it, it says "unknown error: cannot mount"
[11:34] <XdorotaX> it's a good executable file because it would work if i was using windows, only I can't use windows because my windows install is busted..
[11:34] <Eleaf> soundray, I'm at my computer now, however.  Any ideas?
[11:34] <XdorotaX> sorry, punsad, forgot to prefix your name with both paragraphs
[11:35] <tatters> Anybody know about finding a Lexmark .PPD  needed for network printer install ?
[11:35] <DrakNine> anyone know about freeciv/?
[11:35] <soundray> Eleaf: no.
[11:35] <Eleaf> soundray, thanks mate.
[11:35] <cduval04> hey....im trying to install linux from the cd...it boots fine....I get as far as copying the files to my hd (ext3 partition) then it says press ok, i press ok...the cd ejects, but then its frozen...it doesnt reboot when i press enter....I restart and grub shows up..I can boot into windows...but when i try to boot into freespire..black screen...whats up here?
[11:35] <cduval04> its actually freespire
[11:35] <bascule> Eleaf: really depends what you want to talk about, join #<subject> to see if there is such a place
[11:35] <tim__> How do u UNinstall Waraft 3 ?????
[11:35] <cduval04> but theres nnoone in the freespir channel
[11:35] <Eleaf> bascule, yeah, there are a few nice rooms, but I was just looking for something that is general, not ##off-topic, and has some people.
[11:35] <kitche> cduval04: this is the ubuntu support channel not the freespire support channel
[11:35] <TUXedomember> ok i need help i turned on beryl and now i can't see any thing but white in the gui how, after doing ctrl + alt + f1 can i turn beryl off?
[11:36] <Eleaf> bascule, #landfill and #photogeeks is kinda nice, but there are often times not enough people.
[11:36] <soundray> cduval04: download Ubuntu Feisty 7.04 and try with that.
[11:36] <cdp> has bascule, i retried the thing with your speed=8 and i got a small iso to burn
[11:36] <Eleaf> well, now I'm just getting my fresh reinstall up to snuff.
[11:36] <cduval04> i know that but there was like 3 poepl in free spire channel
[11:36] <Eleaf> nice having a 320GB harddrive now..
[11:36] <DrakNine> hello and good morning : i am haveing problem makeing freeciv fullscreen how can helpp/?
[11:36] <cdp> cdrecord -vv speed=8 dev=/dev/scd0 blah.iso
[11:37] <bascule> Eleaf: that is the thing with the big chans, lots of folk but the y have to be strictly modded or traffic becomes too high and support dissappears in the noise, anyway that is enough about off-topic subjects in here for now :)
[11:37] <soundray> cduval04: you remind me of the guy who looked for his keys where the light shone, not where he lost them.
[11:37] <cduval04> i really would prefer free spire...can you tell me where to go for faster help?
[11:37] <Eleaf> lol bascule
[11:37] <Eleaf> not much else going on currently.
[11:37] <cduval04> ya i know...im dying for an answer tho
[11:37] <scguy318> cduval04: what's the question?
[11:37] <cdp> oops with the -immed flag too
[11:38] <TUXedomember> HOW CAN I TURN OF BERYL WITH OUT SEEING ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[11:38] <cdp> i'm gonna go research... see y'all later
[11:38] <cduval04> hey....im trying to install linux from the cd...it boots fine....I get as far as copying the files to my hd (ext3 partition) then it says press ok, i press ok...the cd ejects, but then its frozen...it doesnt reboot when i press enter....I restart and grub shows up..I can boot into windows...but when i try to boot into freespire..black screen...whats up here?
[11:38] <jester_> is there any other driver (i'm using fglrx, ati is not working) which might fix the problem (i.e. make my laptop monitor running)?
[11:38] <cduval04> by linux i mean freespire 2.0
[11:38] <darkangel_> hello
[11:38] <cduval04> it runs from the cd fine
[11:38] <scguy318> cduval04: this is a Ubuntu support channel, i know #freespire is dead, but I don't believe this is the place
[11:38] <sunilonln> hey all, i originally installed xubuntu, and have now switched to kubuntu -- is there an easy way to get rid of all of the xfce packages?
[11:38] <jester_> i've got a ati mobile radeon x700
[11:38] <bascule> TUXedomember: reinstall XP and go back to the AOL chat rooms
[11:38] <soundray> TUXedomember: what do you think this is going to accomplish? Annoy everyone to make them help you?
[11:38] <bruenig> sunilonln, nope
[11:38] <Eleaf> lol
[11:39] <scguy318> sunilonln: perhaps a complete removal of xubuntu-desktop?
[11:39] <Eleaf> soundray, brrrzzzt!
[11:39] <darkangel_> is the latest beta 7.10 good i debating about installing it
[11:39] <cduval04> is #freespire always this dead?
[11:39] <bruenig> scguy318, xubuntu-desktop is 40 kb, it consists only of a changelog nothing else
[11:39] <sunilonln> yeah, i tried that, but it says Package xubuntu-desktop is not installed, so not removed
[11:39] <GregVernon> hey soundray, I think I found out why I'm having such a hard time getting vnc to work!  apparently it doesn't actually start up
[11:39] <soundray> cduval04: please stop asking freespire questions here.
[11:39] <scguy318> sunilonln: you could try entering all the dependencies of that package
[11:39] <scguy318> sunilonln: into sudo apt-get remove
[11:39] <TUXedomember> i just need help ok if u were a 13 year old with his ubuntu computer fcrashed and u need to finnish your homework then u'd be annoying everyone OK!!!!
[11:39] <sunilonln> hmm
[11:40] <bruenig> scguy318, the problem there is that the dependencies overlap, and are needed for kubuntu also
[11:40] <rico_> hey guys, I have a question. I have a file in /usr/bin, and I want to know what package is responsible for putting that file there.
[11:40] <scguy318> bruenig: ah
[11:40] <bruenig> scguy318, some
[11:40] <TUXedomember> just help me get beryl turned off in the non gui thats all i need
[11:40] <preaction> !patience | TUXedomember
[11:40] <ubotu> TUXedomember: 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
[11:40] <rico_> more specifically, I have /usr/bin/totem while I uninstalled totem totem-xine totem-gstreamer
[11:40] <sunilonln> scguy318, where can i find that list?
[11:40] <preaction> TUXedomember, #ubuntu-effects is where you want to go for help with beryl
[11:40] <soundray> TUXedomember: just boot a live CD and finish your homework with that.
[11:40] <TUXedomember> thank you!
[11:40] <scguy318> sunilonln: in Synaptic, you can right click the package and go to Properties, but as bruenig said
[11:40] <bruenig> sunilonln, apt-cache show xubuntu-desktop but removing all of them will be a bad idea because many overlap with kubuntu
[11:40] <ashley1> hello
[11:41] <scguy318> bruenig: couldn't you just reinstall kubuntu-desktop after?
[11:41] <rico_> anyone? :)
[11:41] <ashley1> ive only just realised i should be on here instead of #kubuntu
[11:41] <taggie> Is this the best channel to ask a sound question? I have no sound from my Intel HDA audio on a thinkpad after a new gutsy beta install.
[11:41] <bruenig> scguy318, probably
[11:41] <GregVernon> So, anyone available to help get my VNC server corrected?
[11:41] <ashley1> how do i install KDE, so i can test it out?
[11:41] <slackern_> taggie, gutsy discussions in #ubuntu+1 channel
[11:41] <shadowspider> i am having problems with setting up internet in Ubuntu 7.04 - cannot see options. Only Modem connection. No option to add any. Please help
[11:41] <taggie> slackern_ thx.
[11:42] <soundray> ashley1: 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop'
[11:42] <ashley1> thanks
[11:42] <sunilonln> scguy318, there's a huge overlap so i'm going to try the synapic route
[11:42] <darkangel_> should i install the 7.10 beta for ubuntu
[11:42] <soundray> !intelhda | taggie
[11:42] <ubotu> taggie: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[11:43] <ashley1> soundray: are there any other desktop environments apart from kde and gnome?
[11:43] <bruenig> xfce
[11:43] <GregVernon> lot's really
[11:43] <bascule> ashley1: literally 100s
[11:43] <ashley1> i wanna test them out
[11:43] <ashley1> xD
[11:43] <jyulliano> alguem fala portugus para me ajudar:
[11:43] <bruenig> the other ones are considered window managers more so than desktop environments
[11:43] <soundray> ashley1: yes, xfce (xubuntu), fluxbox, ratpoison and a number of others
[11:43] <GregVernon> ashley1, why?
[11:43] <ashley1> i want to test them out
[11:43] <darkangel_> HELLO SHOULD I INSTALL UBUNTU 7.10 BETA
[11:43] <bruenig> like fluxbox would not be considered a desktop environment
[11:43] <TUXedomember> how do i stop an app in terminal?
[11:43] <ashley1> see which one i prefer on ubuntu
[11:43] <soundray> ashley1: what are you looking for in a desktop environment?
[11:44] <soundray> darkangel_: ASK IN #UBUNTU+!
[11:44] <bascule> ashley1: also try enlightenment and windowmaker
[11:44] <ashley1> im not sure, maybe ill find it through curiosity
[11:44] <soundray> darkangel_: #ubuntu+1 that is
[11:44] <bruenig> enlightenment and windowmaker are both not desktop environments
[11:44] <rico_> whats the difference between #ubuntu and #ubuntu+1?
[11:44] <IndyGunFreak> Enlightenment is a bit to bare for my taste.
[11:44] <soundray> rico_: join #ubuntu+1 and read the topic
[11:44] <ashley1> ill try out that umm...
[11:44] <ashley1> xfce was it?
[11:44] <IndyGunFreak> rico_: oen supports gutsy, one supports feisty
[11:44] <Mexit> ubuntu the best
[11:45] <bascule> bruenig: enlightenment is definitely a desktop enviroment, come on:)
[11:45] <rico_> oh. and this is the feisty channel i assume?
[11:45] <shadowspider> i am having problems with setting up internet in Ubuntu 7.04 - cannot see options. Only Modem connection. No option to add any. Please help
[11:45] <IndyGunFreak> rico_: you catch on quickly
[11:45] <soundray> !modem > shadowspider
[11:45] <ashley1> can i just use 'sudo get-app install xfce', will it work?
[11:45] <soundray> ashley1: 'sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop'
[11:45] <ashley1> ah i see
[11:45] <IndyGunFreak> ashley1: i *think* its xfce-desktop
[11:45] <ashley1> soundray
[11:45] <ashley1> where can i find out
[11:45] <ashley1> more of these parameters
[11:45] <bruenig> !info xfce4
[11:45] <sunilonln> it is xfce-desktop
[11:45] <ashley1> for sudo
[11:46] <ubotu> xfce4: meta-package for xfce4 dependencies. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.3.99.1 (feisty), package size 4 kB, installed size 48 kB
[11:46] <bruenig> its xfce4
[11:46] <TUXedomember> how do i turn off an app in terminal
[11:46] <rico_> ctrl+c?
[11:46] <IndyGunFreak> i haven't used xfce4 yet, i heard its awesome.
[11:46] <bruenig> I use it
[11:46] <ashley1> im on gnome atm
[11:46] <sunilonln> i had stability issues with xfce
[11:46] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: how is it?
[11:46] <jyulliano> como eu instalo o xmms por exemplo:
[11:46] <IndyGunFreak> !es
[11:46] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[11:46] <tim__> How do u RUn wine regedit?
[11:46] <ashley1> the Desktop Effects on GNOME Is amazing
[11:46] <ashley1> the windows wobble
[11:46] <ashley1> and stuff
[11:47] <ashley1> its awesome
[11:47] <soundray> ashley1: "sudo apt-get" is command line package management. If you want to see your package choices in gnome, use Synaptic
[11:47] <soundray> !enter | ashley1
[11:47] <ubotu> ashley1: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[11:47] <shadowspider> soundray: I was talking to you earlier. My prob still doesn't work. Sorry about this!
[11:47] <ashley1> ok thanks
[11:47] <kitche> ashley1: you mean compiz it's not part of gnome :)
[11:47] <patbam> hi, i'm having a weird problem with my mouse, and i'm wondering if it's a hardware thing. if i unplug it and plug it back in, it works, for about 15 seconds, and then ceases to work.
[11:47] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, I prefer it over everything else, I mean gnome is the heaviest de, kde is all shiny and ugly, xfce is solid, light, has more features than gnome like coherent keyboard shortcutting abilities, just all around strong everything you would expect environment
[11:47] <jyulliano> vlw
[11:47] <scguy318> tim___: in the fine terminal
[11:47] <soundray> shadowspider: you're trying to configure a modem? Does it have to be on the command line?
[11:47] <ashley1> ah right
[11:47] <ashley1> its called compiz
[11:48] <tatters> Anybody know about .PPD files?
[11:48] <ashley1> wow ubuntu is amazing
[11:48] <ashley1> i only installed it alongside xp today
[11:48] <shadowspider> soundray: either or. Don't mind once it sets up. Can I give you a link to an image that highlights my problem please
[11:48] <GregVernon> ashley1, are you on AOL?
[11:49] <ashley1> yeah =[
[11:49] <TUXedomember> i need to know how to turn off an app in terminal
[11:49] <soundray> shadowspider: go ahead
[11:49] <GregVernon> How exactly did you get that to work with ubuntu?  I've never been able to connect (before I got rid of it) while on linux
[11:49] <soundray> shadowspider: what kind of modem?
[11:49] <scguy318> tatters: think they are PostScript files
[11:49] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, I have it pretty minimal, but here is what I got: http://i22.tinypic.com/2a2kpy.jpg
[11:49] <IndyGunFreak> ashley1: here's some decent screenshots of xfce....  http://www.xfce.org/about/screenshots    or you could lGoogle Xubuntu screenshots to
[11:49] <ashley1> oh the wireless connection didnt work, so i used a wire to my rooter
[11:49] <sunilonln> scguy318, thanks for the synaptic tip; that took care of most of the packages
[11:50] <tim__> Can debain run UBUNTU files????????????
[11:50] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: lol, yeah thats minimal all right.
[11:50] <scguy318> tim___: what files?
[11:50] <ashley1> ubuntu descended from debain right?
[11:50] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, keyboarder so don't need much of that clickity click stuff
[11:50] <scguy318> tim___: its a poorly defined question
[11:50] <scguy318> ashley1: yes
[11:50] <tatters> scguy318:  I need one for a Lexmark, but Lexmark only offers a proprietary .rpm
[11:50] <rico_> yes ashley
[11:50] <scguy318> ashley1: and it's Debian
[11:50] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: clearly
[11:50] <ashley1> ah yes xD
[11:50] <kevor> uhh, why would someone want to use the Ati driver, if everything works fine without it?
[11:50] <IndyGunFreak> tatters: don't they have the source code also?
[11:50] <scguy318> kevor: if you wanted to use the fine DRI features
[11:50] <Crozar> i got a weird problem , everytime i burn a cd on a CD RW i see no files in the CD RW it says the cd is empty , when i actually burned something and still 4th empty =/ waited long time ...
[11:50] <kevor> only for 3d purposes?
[11:50] <wastedfluid> hi guys.  quick question..  every now and ten(every two weeks or so), ubuntu wants to re-install  linux-headers-2.6.20-16, and  linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic.. when I already have 2.6.20.16.. any ideas?
[11:50] <scguy318> kevor: yeah basically
[11:51] <kevor> scguy318: DRI?

[11:51] <scguy318> kevor: Direct Rendering Infrastructure, the 3D features
[11:51] <shadowspider> soundray: on windows I connect to internet via a USB wireless G+ adaptor to my Wireless modem upstairs, which is connected to the phone line. On the PC, it goes "Wireless Network Connection" which connects to "Dial Up/VPN". Wireless is constantly active, but when want to connect to net, I just dial that.
[11:51] <kevor> scguy318: ok, it's giving me problems, so f*** it :)

[11:52] <IndyGunFreak> ashley1: for being as light as it is, its amazingly functional.
[11:52] <scguy318> ashley1: System -> Administration -> Synaptic
[11:52] <IndyGunFreak> ashley1: system/admin/synaptic
[11:52] <GregVernon> soundray, are you still around?

[11:53] <hand> Channelwide notices ftl...
[11:53] <rico_> tim, ubuntu has it's own repository
[11:53] <overlord> Are there any other effects like the water effect in Compiz ?
[11:53] <GregVernon> soundray, sadly, I still need a few pieces of advice on this VNC thing (It doesn't seem to actually start)
[11:53] <GregVernon> thanks for your help earlier though
[11:53] <ashley1> i wanna find some more effects in compiz too
[11:53] <Crozar> guys i need an expert here please. * i burn cds with my burner and when im finished burning the cd is empty no files even after 4 tries the cd is empty . whats the reason on RW cds because with CD r it works..
[11:53] <Lifeisfunny> overlord, snow?
[11:53] <bruenig> !repeat | Crozar
[11:53] <ubotu> Crozar: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:53] <r3m0t> tim__: every six months ubuntu copies the "unstable" repository from debian and works on that. sometimes changes from debian are bought in later
[11:54] <overlord> Lifesfunny: where do i get it..?
[11:54] <soundray> GregVernon: vncserver creates a directory $HOME/.vnc/ -- you should find a log with error messages in there.
[11:54] <GregVernon> ok
[11:54] <soundray> GregVernon: if you want to share it, please use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[11:54] <Lifeisfunny> overlord, it's in the addon packs
[11:54] <GregVernon> ok
[11:54] <Crozar> omg even google doesnt have the answer must i do a new topic on ubuntu forums?
[11:54] <overlord> Lifesfunny: aah, thanks
[11:54] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: whats the issue?
[11:55] <Crozar> and when will aMSN be updated to better use.
[11:55] <apastinen> hi, is there anyone with familiar DRBL?
[11:55] <Lifeisfunny> overlord, it might be in the ccsm already under Extras
[11:55] <IndyGunFreak> aMsn..eh.. no thanks.
[11:55] <soundray> Crozar: your CD-RWs may be incompatible with your burner. Try another brand.
[11:55] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: i download ubuntu 7.10 i burned it on a CD RW and then after its finished no files int he cD
[11:55] <GregVernon> There doesn't seem to be a directory with that name
[11:55] <Crozar> my burner is DVD ( CD R + CD RW )
[11:55] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: did you burn it as an image?
[11:55] <scguy318> Crozar: as for aMSN, when the aMSN project decides to release a stable, in the meantime you could try an RC or SVN version
[11:55] <tim__> Can debain acces Ubuntu or at least a year old ubuntu rep.??
[11:55] <overlord> lifesfunny: for some reason when i install cssm my Compiz stops working..i use GL instead
[11:56] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: i used CD creator yes .
[11:56] <soundray> GregVernon: what name?
[11:56] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: it took time to burn i even tried to burn Sabayon on it and same result
[11:56] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: that doesn't necessarily mean you burned it as an image.
[11:56] <bejeezus> guys any idea how to uninstall perl on ubuntu ?
[11:56] <GregVernon> "/home/.vnc/
[11:56] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: then that tells you its something you're doing.
[11:56] <scguy318> Crozar: maybe your CD-RW is going bad
[11:56] <GregVernon> no "
[11:56] <Biff> gutsy netinstall fails here, and in the console it says couldnt find task ubuntustudio-desktop
[11:56] <scguy318> Crozar: they don't r/w like hard drives
[11:56] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: could be that, or I've heard that RW is bad for burning isos
[11:56] <Lifeisfunny> overlord, load up all your plugin packages, I'm almost certain you'll get it then
[11:56] <soundray> GregVernon: I said $HOME/.vnc
[11:56] <slackern_> croppa, feisty uses version 0.96+dfsg1-0ubuntu2 and the one that comes with gutsy is 0.97RC1+dfsg-0ubuntu1 is all i know.
[11:57] <shadowspider> soundray: did you get the link in PM?
[11:57] <r3m0t> what's the least unrecommended way to get Skype?
[11:57] <slackern_> Crozar, sorry last message was to you and not croppa
[11:57] <overlord> Lifesfunny: ok, i'll give it a try..
[11:57] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak:  trust me it was burning i hear the drive fireing up but i think its deploying the eraser lazer not the writer lazer so it wasnt doing a job some hardware conflict with ubuntu mabye?
[11:57] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: what brand media is it?
[11:57] <GregVernon> oh, sorry :/
[11:57] <r3m0t> what's the least unrecommended way to get Skype? (on gutsy)
[11:57] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: maybe try a different application?
[11:57] <overlord> I'm not able to get XSane to get working.
[11:57] <scguy318> !gutsy | r3m0t
[11:57] <ubotu> r3m0t: 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
[11:57] <soundray> shadowspider: no.
[11:57] <flx> is there any way to force ubuntu to boot up in text mode without using Grub?
[11:57] <soundray> shadowspider: talk to me in the channel.
[11:58] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: toshiba laptop s801
[11:58] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: when I had windows, i always used Deepburner..., it worked great.
[11:58] <IndyGunFreak> but ymmv
[11:58] <GregVernon> soundray, the log doesn't show anything important. it looks like it's actually running
[11:58] <GregVernon> but when I check 'netstat' it shows it is not
[11:58] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: there's also isorecorder, which is apparently pretty good also.
[11:58] <overlord> I'm not able to get XSane to work.
[11:58] <shadowspider> soundray: my apologies.  http://www.debianadmin.com/images/network/2.png - This is a link to pic.
[11:58] <shadowspider> basically, on this you can see two options. On my screen, they are shaded and cannot be selected.
[11:58] <shadowspider> I cannot set up connections using this.
[11:58] <soundray> GregVernon: what about 'ps aux | grep -i vnc'?
[11:58] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: maybe differnt application will work but i want to know maybe iso's are bad in RWcds?? because all my CDr (cd's) burn ok and works.
[11:59] <scguy318> Crozar: prob your RW sucks, use CD-R :)
[11:59] <Crozar> lol
[11:59] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: my understanding, is RW's are a bit wonky with images, but not 100% on that.. RW has never worked for me.
[11:59] <Crozar> its imation cd - rw's
[11:59] <soundray> shadowspider: what kind of modem is it?
[11:59] <pedervl> How do I update GRUB to not use the GRUB background image? Everytime I boot it says "Can't read GRUB background image, press a key to proceed".
[11:59] <IndyGunFreak> i use Sony DVDR and CDR, no probs.
[11:59] <pigcom> is there a special ubuntu chat for people interested in 'security issues'?
[11:59] <shadowspider> Wireless Modem
[12:00] <IndyGunFreak> pedervl: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:00] <IndyGunFreak> then find where its told to use a background and comment it out.
[12:00] <GregVernon> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39078/
[12:00] <Egonis> I have two restricted drivers pointed out in 7.10 on intial boot - nvidia-glx-new and bcm43xx-fwcutter -- however when I try to enable either, it says "The software source for the package 'thepackagename' is not enabled."
[12:00] <Vorbote> Crozar, it is best to use low speeds with CDRWs. No faster than 4x
[12:00] <MasterShrek> shadowspider, is it a modem or a wirless network card?
[12:00] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: i just wish to update directly on the internet but with the apt manager i couldnt i get an error to do with my isp htttp:// xx . xx .xxx it is network problem after the download ect.. verification doesnt be complted :(
[12:00] <GregVernon> seems like it's there
[12:00] <soundray> shadowspider: more detail?
[12:00] <IndyGunFreak> Vorbote: its probably best to use low speeds with any media, not just RW.
[12:00] <Lifeisfunny> and Hairy Hyena is a close second at 2:1
[12:00] <soundray> GregVernon: how many lines of output?
[12:00] <Crozar>  Vorbote: maybe thats my problem i go for high speed
[12:00] <GregVernon> 2
[12:00] <overlord> I'm not able to get XSane to work. I have Epson CX1500 installed through System>>Printing.
[12:00] <GregVernon> check the link I posted
[12:01] <scguy318> pigcom: not sure
[12:01] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: that may be your problem, burn them around 4x, thats always recommended
[12:01] <Vorbote> IndyGunFreak, a fair quality CDR (beta+ and the like) can be burn at 12x without problems. But CDRWs are more delicate.
[12:01] <Crozar> lol this 2001 laptop maximum is 4x hehe it hink
[12:01] <GregVernon> soundray  >>  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39078/
[12:01] <GregVernon> so you don't have to find it
[12:02] <IndyGunFreak> Vorbote: probably true, i just remember when I first started messing with Linux a couple years ago, I hosed abougt 10 CDRs before someone told me to burn slower.., so i just burn 4x always, its not a race.
[12:02] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: actually the cdrw's are 1x - 4x compatible so this mean if my software goes over that is a problem?
[12:02] <IndyGunFreak> Vorbote: but i was probably burning them around 20x
[12:02] <soundray> GregVernon: well, yes, it looks like it is indeed running.
[12:02] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: i would think so.. i'm guessing thats your issue, adjust you rburn speeds to be much slower.
[12:02] <soundray> GregVernon: did you say there was a firewall configured on the actual server?
[12:03] <Mexit> how install printer canon i450 on ubuntu linux?
[12:03] <GregVernon> well, soundray, it's on a router
[12:03] <bruenig> !printing
[12:03] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[12:03] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: this is supposed to be a good iso burning tool..   http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm
[12:03] <GregVernon> that I cannot administer outside of the network
[12:03] <scguy318> IndyGunFreak: yeah, and also CDBurnerXP
[12:03] <soundray> GregVernon: okay, but when you run netstat, that router should not be in the way.
