[12:03] <NewOnThis> mjancaitis: gonna give it a shot, thanks
[12:03] <kst> dont think linux will fit on 8mb :)
[12:04] <GBenemy> hitomaro: see dev/sda1 open Partition manager (system -> administration) and resize that
[12:04] <Tech-Mike> anybody know howto fix: Wnck-Warning ** Unhandled action (nil)
[12:04] <GBenemy> make 3 partitions
[12:04] <Random832> can you resize ntfs?
[12:04] <GBenemy> yes
[12:04] <hitomaro> ok
[12:04] <NewOnThis> Which version should I dload?
[12:04] <khatahn> kst: linux would, ubuntu won't
[12:04] <astro76> hitomaro, if this is going to be only Ubuntu, back up a step and pick guided partitioning
[12:04] <ech0dish> you should go back, and use the guided partition
[12:04] <ader10> POLL: VMWare vs Virtual Box
[12:04] <kst> khatahn ;-)
[12:04] <mjancaitis> NewOnThis: do you have a 64-bit proc?
[12:05] <GBenemy> hitmaro: resize them to how big you want to keep your ntfs and make one how big your ubuntu is going to be, then resize the ubuntu one again to make another one of around 500mb
[12:05] <NewOnThis> mjancaitis: yes, but I mean 6.06 or 7.04?
[12:05] <mjancaitis> NewOnThis: 7.04, definitely, imo
[12:05] <hitomaro> GBenemy so you want my to click on /sda1 and Edit the partition?
[12:05] <GBenemy> keep the ntfs the same (ntfs) but make the primary ubuntu one ext2 or ext3 and the smaller one "linux-swap"
[12:05] <NewOnThis> mjancaitis: ok thanks, will dload that one
[12:05] <rico> can I ask some VirtualBox help in here? :)
[12:05] <mirak> so now Rythmbox is almost my favorite player
[12:05] <mjancaitis> NewOnThis: good luck
[12:05] <GBenemy> there should be a button at the top "resize"
[12:05] <ech0dish> hitomaro, go back and use the guided partition
[12:05] <mirak> I wouldn't have believed it would be possible
[12:05] <hitomaro> ok
[12:05] <rico> ader10, I like VirtualBox for having seamless. :b
[12:05] <Gutsy_b> What are some portable mp3 players that will work with linux and ogg files?
[12:05] <ech0dish> yeah resize if you want dual boot
[12:06] <romuloo> amaroK rulez
[12:06] <kst> NewOnThis go for latest release which is 7.04, an even newer version (7.10) will be available in 2 weeks from now
[12:06] <mirak> rico: cowon
[12:06] <NewOnThis> mjancaitis: thanks, hope that one works for me, otherwise I'll go hang myself xD
[12:06] <mirak> rico: and old irivers
[12:06] <kst> but you can easily upgrade then
[12:06] <rico> mirak: cowon?
[12:06] <mjancaitis> Gutsy_b: I think Cowon players will work
[12:06] <GBenemy> PriceChild: is this good?
[12:06] <mirak> rico: Cowon
[12:06] <rico> oh. Gutsy_b's the one asking :)
[12:06] <hitomaro> "An error occurred while writing the changes to the storage devices.
[12:06] <hitomaro> The resize operation is aborted."
[12:06] <GBenemy> click the arrow on the left
[12:06] <hitomaro> ok
[12:06] <Gutsy_b> I'll check that thanks
[12:06] <GBenemy> and see what the errors were
[12:06] <ader10> mirak: My favorite player of all time is mpd.
[12:07] <NewOnThis> mjancaitis: one last question, would I be able to install the text based without problems?
[12:07] <overlord> How do enably NTFS read-write support in Feisty Fawn?
[12:07] <mjancaitis> Gutsy_b: the iAudio7 offers 60 hours of playback supposedly
[12:07] <overlord> enable*
[12:07] <mirak> ader10: berk
[12:07] <GBenemy> overlord ntfsg
[12:07] <rico> hey guys.. a question on VirtualBox. I'm 'upgrading' from the OSE version to the proprietary. I just uninstalled OSE and installed VirtualBox from debs (i'm on ubuntu gutsy). is this the only thing I have to do? I'm having problems with this. shouldn't I update the guest additions on the XP guest?
[12:07] <astro76> !ntfs-3g | overlord
[12:07] <ubotu> overlord: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[12:07] <SpiderPig> where is the file in linux that saves all my gnome settings? i need to back it up
[12:07] <rico> overlord, you have to edit your fstab to use the ntfs-3g and have the rw option
[12:07] <mjancaitis> NewOnThis: it will likely *install* correctly, whether it boots after that is the trick
[12:07] <rico> overlord, the URL there might be of some assistance
[12:07] <GBenemy> *ntfs-3g, sorry
[12:07] <mirak> rico: look for cowon audio players, or any player that support rockbox
[12:07] <overlord> rico: thanks..
[12:07] <PriceChild> !gutsy | rico
[12:07] <ubotu> rico: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[12:08] <ech0dish> if you use, fat32 install for the win partition you don't have to worry about ntfs-3g
[12:08] <NewOnThis> mjancaitis: oh :S I see...
[12:08] <mjancaitis> NewOnThis: depending on your hardware, you might have to give grub a couple of tags (noapic, noacpi, etc) to get it to boot and then you can work on getting the display and everything else just right
[12:08] <macd> SpiderPig, typically ~/.gnome ~/.gnome2 ~/.gconf will get everything
[12:08] <rico> pricechild, mmm, I think it was more of a question on VBox and not necessarily on the ubuntu version :)
[12:08] <mjancaitis> NewOnThis: with any luck though, if you're on well-supported hardware, everything will work
[12:08] <SpiderPig> macd um what? can you give me the whole path?
[12:08] <mirak> rico: http://build.rockbox.org/  check all this players. rockbox is an open source OS. some players are not sold anymore
[12:09] <rico> /home/yourusername/.gnome
[12:09] <NewOnThis> mjancaitis: thanks a lot, I'll be back xD
[12:09] <macd> SpiderPig, not without knowing your login name, ~/ will automatically take you to the current users directory, those listed above are subdirectories, you'll want all of them.
[12:09] <Kronos> great so it seems that for some odd reason ubuntu doesnt like my system... all well give it anothing go tomorrow if not back to old rubish windows
[12:09] <Tech-Mike> window-decor prob: Wnck-Warning ** Unhandled action (nil) ... any help?
[12:09] <mjancaitis> rico: rockbox is great, I put it on my nano a while back to get FLAC support
[12:09] <SpiderPig> macd ok im on bitchx so the text is already gone. can you give it to me again? ill save it this time
[12:10] <macd> SpiderPig, typically ~/.gnome ~/.gnome2 ~/.gconf will get everything
[12:10] <NewOnThis> Is there any app like WinAvi video converter or TMPGENC for Linux? I mean a good video converter
[12:10] <scguy318> ffmpeg? :P
[12:10] <NewOnThis> Is that simple of use? or way hard? :P
[12:11] <Meroigo> SpiderPig, "~/" is the same as "/home/username/". If you write ~/ in terminal, nautilus etc it will resolve it to your username's home path. :) It's nice.
[12:11] <mirak> rico: you don't hear me ??
[12:11] <macd> NewOnThis, ffmpeg would be the =, there are also GUI's for it, look into DeVeDe, it converts virtually anything to anything
[12:11] <FurryNemesis> NewOnThis, to convert filetypes?
[12:11] <hitomaro> I'm having resizing problems. :(
[12:11] <ppj> is this lm-sensors thing the best way to control fanspeed?
[12:11] <rico> mirak: I wasn't the one asking the mp3 player question
[12:11] <NewOnThis> yes, between formats
[12:11] <macd> ppj, lm-sensors reads sensors, acpid typically controls them
[12:11] <rico> mirak: I think It was Gutsy_b :)
[12:12] <filthpig> I'm currently running gutsy on a live cd and on a 32" LCD TV (LG 32lb2r), and I luckily get some image at all (had to do a little work to get it to work with feisty), but gutsy does not recognize my monitor by default. To fix this on feisty I just had to run nvidia-settings-config, and it autodetected my TV. Now, I want to make sure this works with gutsy too, but when trying to enable the nvidia restricted driver I get 404: IP not found.. (f
[12:12] <NewOnThis> sorry for too much questions, but I've never used Linux before.
[12:12] <ppj> macd, oh, okay, i was setting lmsensors up and my computer just shutoff (nf4), that common?
[12:12] <davious> exit
[12:12] <mjancaitis> filthpig: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy questions
[12:12] <mehmetserif> can i enable composite with ati radeon express x1200 graphic card?
[12:12] <mirak> Gutsy_b: look for Cowon players, or players on this page that support rockbox http://build.rockbox.org/
[12:12] <FurryNemesis> NewOnThis, well, welcome, and feel free to bug us :)
[12:12] <_Andrew> NewOnThis: You can never ask too many questions ;)
[12:12] <FurryNemesis> hear hear
[12:12] <hitomaro> I can't seem to find the reason why I'm having a resizing problem, I went to guided partition and I keep getting that very problem. :/
[12:12] <NewOnThis> thanks mates ^^
[12:12] <macd> ppj, not really, but most likely it probed a sensor that didnt want to be probed, this isnt a thinkpad is it?
[12:13] <GBenemy> hitomaro: if you use guided partition, it will erase everything on your disk
[12:13] <rico> mehmetserif: hmm
[12:13] <ppj> macd, nope. dfi lanparty motherboard, a desktop
[12:13] <FurryNemesis> that said, does anyone know how I can stop xchat displaying all my text in grey?
[12:13] <hitomaro> oh wow
[12:13] <ppj> macd, it did crash on the second probe so i guess i'll just skip that one
[12:13] <mehmetserif> rico, ?
[12:13] <GBenemy> hitomaro, you have windows currently installed?
[12:13] <hitomaro> fortunately enough I clicked undo
[12:13] <rico> mehmetserif, some ATI cards are blacklisted, I'll check if yours is in there
[12:13] <macd> ppj, yeah good plan, to control fanspeeds and others look at fancontrol and pwmconfig packages
[12:13] <hitomaro> yes but I have nothing on my windows
[12:14] <GBenemy> hitomaro, do you wish to keep your windows though?
[12:14] <hitomaro> I just installed a fresh windows just a couple of minutes ago
[12:14] <mehmetserif> rico, i looked at it on composite
[12:14] <GBenemy> ah, do you want to dual boot, or have ubuntu only?
[12:14] <mehmetserif> rico, i looked at it on composite's wiki bu i couldn't see x1200
[12:14] <ppj> macd, easy to setup? Im having a hardtime working on this because the fans keep revving up and down and this is by no means a quiet server
[12:14] <hitomaro> I'd like dual boot. :)
[12:14] <Sleepybrains> Hello,
[12:14] <GBenemy> ok
[12:14] <rico> mehmetserif, the blacklisted ATI cards are ati rs480 and rv350... so guess your card is okay :] 
[12:14] <strangelv> "What's the channel for Gutsy?
[12:14] <NewOnThis> If I use Ubuntu x64, and want to convert video, will it be faster than doing it in W1nd0wz 32 bits? I know Linux is Robust, but is it faster than the famous W?
[12:14] <GBenemy> hitomaro, go System -> Administration -> GNOME Partition Editor
[12:14] <linxeh> #ubuntu+1
[12:14] <mjancaitis> #ubuntu+1
[12:14] <linxeh> i guess
[12:14] <Kronos> guyz how do i check for any comflicts/ problems during boot up?
[12:15] <GBenemy> right click your ntfs -> unmount
[12:15] <mehmetserif> rico, where do u look for it?
[12:15] <strangelv> "danke
[12:15] <macd> ppj, as easy as anything else in console ;)
[12:15] <ppj> cool thanks
[12:15] <GBenemy> strangelv, #ubuntu+1
[12:15] <rico> mehmetserif, there was URL somewhere but I can't seem to find it anymore. now I just checked my /usr/bin/compiz for it
[12:15] <GBenemy> oh :(
[12:15] <ppj> these fans are really pissing me off
[12:15] <_Andrew> NewOnThis: I don't think it really matters which operating system you covert video on
[12:16] <FurryNemesis> ppj, fan problem?
[12:16] <Sleepybrains> looking to switch from vista to a linux os was looking for a good primer on the subject
[12:16] <mehmetserif> rico, ok so i can use it right?
[12:16] <mjancaitis> Sleepybrains: like what?
[12:16] <macd> ppj, I send you a URL in priv to a decent article on fan speeds
[12:16] <unagi> anyone here have a problem with maya crashing because of an unknown signal?
[12:16] <NewOnThis> Andrew: I see.
[12:16] <macd> sent*
[12:16] <Sleepybrains> well, i don't know anything about linux os's
[12:16] <ppj> FurryNemesis, eh, just a new ubuntu install, the fans are revving up and down, just trying to keep them in one place right now
[12:16] <unagi> Sleepybrains: where do i begin
[12:16] <Sleepybrains> and i'm sick of vista
[12:16] <hitomaro> GBenemy
[12:16] <_Andrew> Sleepybrains: What are you looking for specifically? What alternative programs to use? How to install it?
[12:16] <ader10> What's the best console mpd program?
[12:16] <GBenemy> Sleepybrains: i suggest dual booting first, that way if you don't like it you can easily revert
[12:16] <unagi> Sleepybrains: when vista came out i was impressed
[12:16] <FurryNemesis> macd, I've got the same problem :(
[12:16] <ppj> macd, great thanks
[12:16] <GBenemy> hitomaro, yes?
[12:17] <mehmetserif> rico, but i have one more question, do i have to have with xgl or with aiglx?
[12:17] <hitomaro> what do you mean by unmount? I right clicked
[12:17] <unagi> Sleepybrains: but not so much anymore.....linux is more stable and faster
[12:17] <ppj> FurryNemesis, it's common with all linux distros i've used
[12:17] <rico> mehmetserif, I'm not sure :)
[12:17] <BrokenPipe> Anyone had luck getting the newest Apple Wireless Keyboard working that can give me a hand?
[12:17] <FurryNemesis> ppj, mine started today for some reason
[12:17] <Sleepybrains> i'm just afraid i won't be able to use all of the software programs that i use now
[12:17] <GBenemy> hitomaro, what options does it give you?
[12:17] <IndyGunFreak> hitomaro: you there?
[12:17] <ppj> FurryNemesis, ah, weird
[12:17] <mjancaitis> Sleepybrains: installing Ubuntu is fairly simple, and there's not much of a learning curve to it
[12:17] <Sleepybrains> like support for my mp3 player
[12:17] <hitomaro> hey Indy
[12:17] <hitomaro> yes
[12:17] <Meroigo> Does it exsist a program that can change my desktop background like every five minutes or so? :P
[12:17] <ppj> FurryNemesis, mine does it until i enable the fan controllers
[12:17] <mjancaitis> Sleepybrains: what programs are you concerned about specifically?
[12:17] <ader10> Merogio: Yes, I don't remember what it's called.
[12:17] <FurryNemesis> fan controllers?
[12:17] <_Andrew> Sleepybrains: What programs we can suggest alternatives
[12:17] <ader10> Meroigo: I know KDE has it by default
[12:18] <FurryNemesis> I never found out how to do that.....
[12:18] <hitomaro> hey GBenemy, thanks for the help
[12:18] <Sleepybrains> well, that's not the issue really... where would you send a noob to learn about switching over to ubuntu
[12:18] <veynom> !zombie
[12:18] <mjancaitis> Sleepybrains: ubuntu.com, of course!
[12:18] <Meroigo> ader10, okay, i use gnome
[12:18] <Sleepybrains> i looked there, obviously
[12:18] <GBenemy> hitomaro, did you get it working?
[12:18] <randomness> Sleepybrains: i'd send you a live cd
[12:18] <Y3k> how do i list the information of a user? UID, PID, groups, etc
[12:18] <ader10> Meroigo: I know xfce has something too
[12:18] <Sleepybrains> can i just burn a cd, of an iso and reformat and install?
[12:18] <FurryNemesis> ppj, d'you think you could forward me the url that macd qave you please?
[12:19] <ader10> Meroigo: I'm not sure about gnome though
[12:19] <_Andrew> Sleepybrains: There is alot of reading material. If you need a quick question asked then come by here and someone should be able to answer you! :D
[12:19] <Meroigo> okay..
[12:19] <randomness> Sleepybrains: with a livecd you wouldn't need to reformat.. just pop it in and give it a try
[12:19] <astro76> Sleepybrains, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwitchingToUbuntu/FromWindows/
[12:19] <GBenemy> Sleepybrains: i recently swapped from windows to linux about 2 weeks ago...i have been a windows user since '95, and for the first few days i hated ubuntu (sorry) however, after spending some time in here, it found it easy to learn my way around it, and use it
[12:19] <Sleepybrains> perfect! thank you... sorry for the bother
[12:19] <Lifeisfunny> What's the Ubuntu program I need to install similar to iTunes?
[12:19] <ppj> amarok
[12:20] <ppj> er, for KDe though
[12:20] <GBenemy> i use iTunes :S
[12:20] <Lifeisfunny> gnome
[12:20] <levarnu> not similar...better! :)
[12:20] <rico> Lifeisfunny, exaile,  rhythmbox
[12:20] <ppj> exaile i guess
[12:20] <GBenemy> if you have itunes on a windows partition, just use wine
[12:20] <Lifeisfunny> rico, thanks, you too ppj
[12:20] <_Andrew> Lifeisfunny: I'm using Rhythmbox which is installed by default in Ubuntu although some people don't like i
[12:20] <rico> wine + itunes didn't work for me with itunes 7.01
[12:20] <ppj> i use kde libs just for amarok
[12:20] <Lifeisfunny> now windows here
[12:20] <arnath> hi, i have windows xp on first sata drive, linux ubuntu 7.10 on second, grub has been wiped by the windows install, but i can't seem to reinstall grub properly
[12:20] <GBenemy> really? it does for me
[12:21] <juha_> in synaptic view, packet box, what does that orange ubuntu symbol mean?
[12:21] <ppj> hell i use linux just just for amarok
[12:21] <macd> !grub | arnath
[12:21] <rico> arnath, do you have your Ubuntu install cd?
[12:21] <scguy318> arnath: have you tried using the Super GRUB CD?
[12:21] <rico> you can use that to reinstall grub.
[12:21] <arnath> rico: yes
[12:21] <Lifeisfunny> _Andrew, yeah, I have that installed already.  didn't know it worked
[12:21] <macd> oh dear
[12:21] <arnath> rico: i know
[12:21] <macd> where is uboto
[12:21] <neo_> hi
[12:21] <ader10> What's the best console program for mpd?
[12:21] <GBenemy> uboto?
[12:21] <arnath> rico: i did the find /boot/grub/stage1, it gave me (hd1,1)
[12:21] <scguy318> juha_: it means that the package is an official repo package, and not in universe or another repo
[12:21] <rico> arnath, good, then do "root (hd1,1)"
[12:21] <rico> and setup (hd1)
[12:21] <unagi> arnath in my experience i havent been able to get grub to work when installing windows second but you can use the windows bootloader.....
[12:21] <arnath> rico: first time i installed it, it didnt work at all (it did say it was installed, but skipped grub and went straight for windows anyway)
[12:22] <unagi> but of course its going to go into grub after the windows loader.......lemme know if u want the solution
[12:22] <juha_> thaks scguy318
[12:22] <rico> oops, "setup (hd0)" since you want it installed on the firs tdisk
[12:22] <GBenemy> i edit my grub files
[12:22] <GBenemy> *edited
[12:22] <GBenemy> the defaults annoyed me
[12:22] <unagi> i hate how it says its longhorn
[12:22] <GBenemy> yeah: i changed that
[12:22] <neo_> why after i have installed the new Kernel for my Ubuntu 7.04 it shows me that the PC have errors etc ?
[12:23] <arnath> unagi: i dont quite understand why grub wont work anymore after windows isntall?
[12:23] <arnath> unagi: i mean, that it cant be installed anymore
[12:23] <GBenemy> now, my list says "Windows Vista" "Ubuntu" "Ubuntu (Memory Test)"
[12:23] <toed> how can I move everything around on my gnome panel thing
[12:23] <GBenemy> with Windows as the default
[12:23] <GBenemy> :P
[12:23] <unagi> windows overwrites the grub bootloader as the default
[12:23] <macd> toed, right click what you want and unlock it, and move it
[12:23] <tetrach> i am a newb and have a few questions is there someone here who could help out in a private chat
[12:23] <scguy318> neo_: what sort of errors?
[12:24] <coreymon77> !fixgrub | GBenemy
[12:24] <arnath> unagi: ye but reinstalling it should be easy, no?
[12:24] <toed> macd: most things have "move" grayed out
[12:24] <scguy318> tetrach: asking here is fine
[12:24] <ctothej> what do I have to do to ensure a certain module gets loaded at bootup? I am trying to replace my network card driver from sky2 to sk98lin driver.
[12:24] <ader10> What's the best console program for mpd?
[12:24] <tetrach> ok thanks
[12:24] <scguy318> tetrach: the channel isn't seriously busy
[12:24] <toed> like the menus and the clock
[12:24] <hitomaro> (06:18:27 PM) GBenemy, No but IndyGunFreak was helping me out earlier and he's picking off where he left off
[12:24] <coreymon77> !grub | GBenemy
[12:24] <hitomaro> thanks anyways
[12:24] <macd> toed, yeah, then uncheck the lock to panel box
[12:24] <coreymon77> never mind that
[12:24] <GBenemy> coreymon77: I don't want to fix it
[12:24] <GBenemy> i just edited it to suit me
[12:24] <toed> ugh, that's a lot of mouse clicks
[12:24] <coreymon77> GBenemy: isnt that what the problem is?
[12:24] <GBenemy> no why?
[12:24] <mjancaitis> toed: it's more than you can do in Windows though :D
[12:24] <GBenemy> i don't have a problem
[12:24] <dawiz> can anyone help with install?
[12:25] <macd> toed, if 2 is too many then I feel sad for you.
[12:25] <unagi> i wouldnt say easy
[12:25] <magnetron> how do i do full disk encryption with ubuntu 7.04 or 7.10 ?
[12:25] <ppj> ugh this pwmconfig is confusing
[12:25] <astro76> !anyone | dawiz
[12:25] <GBenemy> ubotu isn't in the channel
[12:25] <GBenemy> he's online though
[12:25] <macd> hes back
[12:25] <astro76> dawiz, ask ;)
[12:25] <coreymon77> GBenemy: oh, sorry, i thought it was the grub after windows thing
[12:25] <ader10> What's the best console program for mpd?
[12:25] <dawiz> its the keyboard
[12:25] <GBenemy> no no not me :P thanks though
[12:25] <Agrajag> ader10: ncmpc
[12:25] <toed> macd: 2 for each thing on the panel
[12:25] <_Andrew> dawiz: Whats wrong with it?
[12:25] <toed> it shuffled itself for some reason when I rebooted
[12:26] <dawiz> works fine til it wants me to choose it from list, then i dont find an exact match on the list, the arrow keys stop working and i cant finish install
[12:26] <astro76> dawiz, what kind of keyboard do you have?
[12:26] <unagi> is there a network manager out there that allows you to refresh your wireless list
[12:26] <tetrach> my computer came with vista and i would like to now dual boot ubuntu. what is the best way to go about this
[12:26] <dawiz> logitech mediaboard
[12:27] <unagi> that is the one major thing about ubuntu that bugs me
[12:27] <GBenemy> tetrach = resize your vista partition and install ubunt
[12:27] <GBenemy> *ubuntu
[12:27] <macd> !dualboot | tetrach
[12:27] <unagi> mandriva has a rocking network monitor
[12:27] <ubotu> tetrach: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - MACs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookProFeisty
[12:27] <macd> bleh
[12:27] <_Andrew> unagi: You mean like wifi radar?
[12:27] <unagi> not exactly
[12:27] <grozeille> hello, is there someone skilled about pango/cairo/etc. to explain me something, plz ?
[12:27] <unagi> wifi radar is too out there for me
[12:28] <ppj> Is there any form of GUI fan management
[12:28] <unagi> more or less a sys tray app
[12:28] <EviL_SmUrF> I would think the best way of dual booting ubuntu with vista would be to not dual boot ubuntu with vista. just remove vista ;) horrible, horrible software
[12:28] <macd> ppj, not that I ever found
[12:28] <astro76> dawiz, the default should work fine
[12:28] <ppj> I need something I can constantly change the fan speeds with
[12:28] <ppj> :<
[12:28] <GBenemy> PriceChild: sorry, i've been helping properly now though :D
[12:28] <g0dd3ss> unagi,  have u tried wicd
[12:28] <dawiz> default?
[12:28] <stefg> tetrach: make sure you have a backup first, and that you are able to restore windows bootloader, in case something goes wrong
[12:28] <unagi> no i havent lemme check it out
[12:28] <macd> ppj, you can set acpi events to trigger the fans on only at certain temps
[12:28] <magnetron> how do i do full disk encryption with ubuntu 7.04 or 7.10 ?
[12:28] <stefg> !install | tetrach
[12:28] <ubotu> tetrach: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[12:28] <astro76> dawiz, whatever is selected, you don't have to change it
[12:28] <DragoraN> hi all
[12:28] <dawiz> default is not an option on the list
[12:28] <_Andrew> Hi
[12:29] <Nemes> I haven't got any problems to reproduce DVD-5's, but I'm getting the error message "Are you trying to play an encrypted DVD without libdvdcss?" when trying to play DVD-9's. Any idea?
[12:29] <dawiz> nothing is selected
[12:29] <ikonia> magnetron: full disk is a big ask
[12:29] <dawiz> it gives me a list
[12:29] <DragoraN> how it is possible that my ubuntu box issues certificates with validity from tomorrow? :)
[12:29] <dawiz> generic dos key?
[12:29] <GBenemy> _Andrew: hi
[12:29] <_Andrew> dawiz: Can you pick a keyboard layout that is similar to yours but won't mess up the install
[12:29] <ppj> macd, can you set a buffer? I can do the same thing in windows, but the problem is it will get to the max temperature to kick in the fan, say 35... cool back to 34, and shut off the fan.. then turn it back on at 35.. and its just a cycle
[12:29] <magnetron> ikonia: i was thinking everything except /boot
[12:29] <dawiz> ive tried many
[12:29] <astro76> dawiz, I can't remember what it's called, what's the first one?
[12:29] <macd> magnetron,  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemLVMHowto
[12:29] <ppj> It doesn't seem like a big deal but this server is ungodly loud and sitting next to me
[12:29] <ikonia> magnetron: even / is a pretty big ask
[12:29] <magnetron> thank you, macd
[12:29] <ikonia> magnetron: boot scripts etc etc
[12:29] <dawiz> some off brand its alphabetical
[12:30] <tetrach> ok once i resize my partition for vista i just load ubuntu and just install.  will the install do everything i need it to with out my assistance
[12:30] <astro76> dawiz, you're installing Feisty?
[12:30] <dawiz> yep
[12:30] <GBenemy> tetrach, yup
[12:30] <GBenemy> but you'll need to make 2 partitions
[12:31] <GBenemy> one for ubuntu, one for swap
[12:31] <tetrach> how big for swap?
[12:31] <scguy318> tetrach: how much memory do you have?
[12:31] <astro76> dawiz, and you're on step 3 Keyboard layout?
[12:31] <tetrach> 2gigs why?
[12:31] <scguy318> tetrach: do you want to hibernate/suspend?
[12:31] <tetrach> or do you mean hard drive space
[12:31] <scguy318> tetrach: probably a little more than 2 GB then
[12:32] <dawiz> yes
[12:32] <GBenemy> tetrach, i made mine 1gb
[12:32] <dawiz> asking for keyboard model
[12:32] <_Andrew> tetrach: If you put in an Ubuntu live CD it will boot up Ubuntu without needing to install anything. You can then play around with Ubuntu but it will be slow because its on the CD. To install it you double click on the "Install Ubuntu" icon. It will ask you a few questions like what your language is, what username and password you want. After that it will install ubuntu and ask you to reboot your computer
[12:32] <GBenemy> tetrach: just DON'T click "Guided" when it asks you to chose where on you hdd you want to install
[12:33] <tetrach> yeah i have been playing around with it and i like it so far but cd is slow and i would like ot eventually convert to linux
[12:33] <progek> Hi room, I installed cvscedega, it compiled fine and ran make install without problems. I read that now I need to run cvscedega to create the config folder and such but that command is not found. Anyone know where I can locate this script? locate cvscedega shows nothing
[12:33] <tetrach> so my swap is dependant on how much memory i have installed?
[12:34] <astro76> dawiz, you click on US English on the left?
[12:34] <dawiz> its a list
[12:34] <razer_> What cd writing program does ubuntu come with and is it really easy for old people to remember how to just take a file and burn it to a cd?
[12:34] <stefg> progek: run sudo updatedb before you try again to locate
[12:34] <dawiz> no right or left
[12:34] <dxdt> tetrach: yes it exists on your hard drive.  Most people do swap = 2*size of ram, but that is becoming less relevant as memory sizes grow.
[12:34] <GBenemy> tetrach; yes
[12:34] <dawiz> and yes entered us english
[12:34] <astro76> dawiz, dawiz it doesn't look like this? http://fosswire.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/ubuntufeistyinstallpicture-4.png
[12:34] <razer_> Anyone heard of easy Ubuntu?
[12:35] <_Andrew> razer_: When you put in a blank CD you just drag and drop files you want to write onto the cd and click burn
[12:35] <progek> stefg thanks, i'll try
[12:35] <astro76> !easyubuntu
[12:35] <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
[12:35] <razer_> Ok.
[12:35] <razer_> andrew: Have you ever heard of easy Ubuntu? its a script.
[12:35] <_Andrew> nope
[12:35] <tetrach> can i use gnome partition editor to create my partitions once i have re-sized my vista drive
[12:35] <amadeux> ktorrent uses 500MB+ of memory while having about 10 downloads and 1 upload. Isn't there a torrent client that uses way less memory than that? that is insane! I even set it for low memory usage in the settings
[12:35] <scguy318> tetrach: yes
[12:35] <bbardlbradd> Hey, I'm having trouble connecting to an irc room, I have set the channel to #philosphy in us.undernet.org, what else do I need to do??? I thought that was it?
[12:35] <dawiz> no
[12:35] <astro76> razer_, there's dirt-simple cd burning built into the file manager, click Places > CD/DVD Creator
[12:35] <razer_> Andrew: it is supposed to install common needed things for ubuntu that it can't come with.
[12:35] <unagi> i have like 4 linux swaps
[12:36] <unagi> lol
[12:36] <progek> works, thanks
[12:36] <unagi> i dont know why
[12:36] <dawiz> its the alternate disc
[12:36] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: join it i guess?
[12:36] <astro76> razer_, all those things are simple to install, you don't need dodgy scripts
[12:36] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: if your client isn't already doing that
[12:36] <razer_> Andrew: Because I need to get flash and zip programs installed in one quick swipe.
[12:36] <scguy318> tetrach: swap size is kinda dependent on RAM, since you probably will be suspending/hibernating to disk
[12:36] <razer_> I need to be able to get EVERYTHING I need with one quick step. Zip program, codecs, etc.
[12:36] <astro76> dawiz, just look for a generic 101-key keyboard if yours isn't listed
[12:36] <scguy318> tetrach: if you dont plan to do that you don't have to have swap at all really
[12:36] <_Andrew> razer_: You can get flash from Ubuntu you dont need a script
[12:36] <bbardlbradd> scguy318, I've set it to autojoin...
[12:36] <razer_> Like what Linspire comes with.
[12:37] <astro76> !synaptic | razer_
[12:37] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: can you join it manually?
[12:37] <ubotu> razer_: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[12:37] <tetrach> what do you mean suspending/hibernanting?
[12:37] <razer_> Andrew: I just mean to be up and running for any web page, all those pugins and stuf.
[12:37] <astro76> razer_, installing stuff is easy
[12:37] <dawiz> ive done that its a 104
[12:37] <scguy318> tetrach: suspending or hibernating your Linux machine
[12:37] <bbardlbradd> scguy318, how do I go about doing that?
[12:37] <tetrach> gotcha
[12:37] <razer_> Now is Click and Run coming with Ubuntu now?
[12:37] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: /join #philosophy?
[12:37] <astro76> razer_, sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras flashplugin-nonfree sun-java6-plugin
[12:38] <tetrach> what benefit is it to do suspending/hibernanting
[12:38] <dawiz> do 101?
[12:38] <razer_> I just need to get TONS of stuff installed for my parents computer, I can't be around to get each plugin or codec, when I'm not around.
[12:38] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: just make sure to do it on the undernet server and not here :)
[12:38] <_Andrew> razer_: There are packages available from the repositories that give you flash support.. go to applications -> add/remove -> search for "flash"
[12:38] <progek> anyone know the terminal command to pause output? for extremely long output which goes overflows the buffer
[12:38] <bbardlbradd> scguy, after connecting to undernet.org?
[12:38] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: yes
[12:38] <astro76> razer_, ubuntu offers to install codecs automatically when needed also
[12:38] <razer_> I heard about "easy Ubuntu" that sounds like the closest thing to what I need.
[12:39] <razer_> astro76, oh ok good.
[12:39] <bbardlbradd> scguy318, and if connecting to undernet is the problem?
[12:39] <scguy318> tetrach: some people don't like to load everything each time they boot, so they suspend, BUT Linux is kinda crappy with suspend, it may or may not work for you
[12:39] <militant> is there a faq recommended for amd64 + flash?  i'm googling, just wondering
[12:39] <razer_> This is for you parents you see. I just need to make sure Ubuntu gets ALL those extra little things installed at once after install.
[12:39] <Jack_Sparrow> razer_: BE CAREFUL WITH THOSE QUICK FIX SCRIPTS.. MANY DO ORRIBLE THINGS TO YOUR INSTALL
[12:39] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: what do you mean?
[12:39] <ech0dish> @
[12:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Srooy for the caps people
[12:39] <tetrach> ok i see
[12:39] <razer_> Jack_Sparrow: Ok
[12:39] <ech0dish> @a test
[12:39] <razer_> Though I hope Easy Ubuntu will not ruin the Ubuntu install.
[12:40] <dxdt> militant: long story short, it sucks and your options are run 32bit fierfox + 32bit flash, or go  with 64 bit gnash, that is barely functional at the moment :(
[12:40] <tetrach> will i get the prompt on which system i would like to load one ubuntu is installed
[12:40] <_Andrew> razer_: Its not good to use scripts because it can break your system. Its better to install deb packages because you can easily re-install or remove them
[12:40] <Jack_Sparrow> razer_: It is supposed to be one of the better scripts.  it still is not hard to do it manually
[12:40] <militant> dxdt: i see forum posts where people say it works fine?
[12:40] <amadeux> ktorrent uses 500MB+ of memory while having about 10 downloads and 1 upload. Isn't there a torrent client that uses way less memory than that? that is insane! I even set it for low memory usage in the settings
[12:40] <bbardlbradd> scguy318:I mean, it's not that I can't find the channel, it's that I can't connect to undernet.org
[12:40] <razer_> Andrew: Well its a pain to have to install tons of things just to get the computer up and running to a normal level.
[12:41] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: i can connect just fine, what client are you using?
[12:41] <Jack_Sparrow> razer_: Everyone has their normal level.. what is right for you is not right for everyone.
[12:41] <bbardlbradd> xchat (feisty fawn)
[12:41] <bbardlbradd> I think it
[12:41] <razer_> I liked the level Linspire came with. It had everything I needed already installed.
[12:41] <bbardlbradd> just takes longer than It usually does on my mac
[12:41] <dxdt> militant: the 32bit thing does work fine, but it is one of those things where I get sad having to basically downgrade myself to be able to use something like that.  Hopefully one day Gnash will be better.  Gnash right now will not play the majority of flash for me.  Youtube, sure.  COmedy Central?  no.  Stuffs like that
[12:41] <razer_> But, it was not as solid or well done as Ubuntu.
[12:41] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: mIRC on Wine for me :P anyway, connecting shouldn't be an issue, though I've never used X-Chat
[12:42] <stefg> amadeux: is that memory used for anything else? Don't complain about your ram being actually put to use, if there's plenty of it
[12:42] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: /server us.undernet.org I guess, though I'm not sure how X-Chat handles multiple IRC connections
[12:42] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: that may kick you off this one :P
[12:42] <militant> dxdt: ahh ok.  so i won't have to re-do my roommate's install with a 32bit system, i can just downgrade ff.  i'll google that and try it out, or do you know of a good faq/howto?
[12:42] <Jack_Sparrow> razer_: you only need to build your configuration once, you can then clone it all you want or remaster the cd for a more custom version
[12:42] <_Andrew> razer_: See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[12:42] <tetrach> if i were to reinstall windows could it share a file system partition
[12:43] <scguy318> tetrach: what do you mean?
[12:43] <dxdt> militant: I"ve seen some stuff in the forums, but I wouldn't call it a *good* how to if you know what I mean.  Sorry :-/
[12:43] <scguy318> tetrach: its very good idea to give the Windows installation its own partition
[12:43] <militant> ok, thanks.  i'll figure it out
[12:43] <tetrach> i would give windows os its own partition but partition where my file are stored
[12:44] <EviL_SmUrF> wow. ubuntu actually has drivers for my freaking canon mp150. that's never happened before. i've never had a linux distro installed that worked so easily with my printer
[12:44] <EviL_SmUrF> <3
[12:44] <scguy318> tetrach: sure, thats not a problem
[12:44] <Eric_Cartman> is there enyone
[12:44] <Eric_Cartman> haloooo
[12:44] <scguy318> hai
[12:44] <bbardlbradd> thx for your help scguy318 ;)
[12:44] <amadeux> stefg: Yeah, I need that memory for other apps that I am running. ktorrent is slowing my machine down with swapping etc. 500MB should not be necesary for a torrent client
[12:44] <scguy318> bbardlbradd: np
[12:45] <progek> I installed cvscedega with the WineCVS.sh script. It passed configure, compiled and ran make install and said complete. How can I start cvscedega now? If I type cvscedega I get command not found, same with cedega
[12:45] <ivanhoe> coul you tellme where i could get a how -to to build my own drivers
[12:45] <scguy318> progek: sudo make install? perhaps
[12:45] <_Andrew> progek: did you do "sudo make install" ?
[12:45] <stefg> tetrach: linux can read and write ntfs, and there's a filesystem driver that makes windows ext2/3 aware. (don't know about vista) Personally i rather use ext3 for shared date (fat32 is out of question for various reasons)
[12:45] <tetrach> scguy318: tks alot for your help
[12:45] <scguy318> ivanhoe: writing hardware drivers from scratch? not easy :) how to compile a driver? see !make
[12:45] <scguy318> !make | ivanhoe
[12:45] <progek> scguy318 thanks, the script ran make install last
[12:45] <ubotu> ivanhoe: 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!)
[12:46] <scguy318> progek: has to be done as root I think
[12:46] <tetrach> stefg: so it wouldn't be wise?
[12:46] <ctothej> can someone pastebin or private msg me the output of their 'route' command? (home network preferred)
[12:46] <ikonia> ctothej why do you want to see other peoples networks
[12:46] <progek> scguy318 yeah I ran the script as root :( first time it complained about permissions so I went under root and ran the script again. strange... it said complete and shows it passed configure, make and make install
[12:47] <scguy318> progek: do you know where it put the binaries? im guessing /usr/local/bin?
[12:47] <alecwh> Hello! I'm having some serious problems with NetworkManager, and I need to restart the whole app. How do I completely reinstall the NetworkManager?
[12:47] <ctothej> ikonia: i just want to see if my entries are normal. i changed drivers and reconfigured the network. while reading the driver's readme, it mentions the route command and to check it.
[12:47] <progek> scguy318 I'll look in there again
[12:47] <ikonia> ctothej what someone else has shuld be different to yours
[12:47] <ikonia> ctothej: post yours in a pastebin
[12:47] <MasterShrek> alecwh, do you want to reinstall it or restart it?
[12:47] <ctothej> ikonia: ok
[12:47] <alecwh> MasterShrek: reinstall. I want to totally get rid of it, then redo it.
[12:47] <stefg> tetrach: fat32 fragments and has a 4 GB size limit (so you can't store a DVD image on it). I'd see if there's a ext3 driver available for vista and have a separate ext3 shared data partition
[12:48] <_Andrew> alecwh: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[12:48] <MasterShrek> alecwh, there should be an option in synaptic to completely remove it, then just install it back
[12:48] <alecwh> _Andrew: I want to reinstall it.
[12:48] <alecwh> ok, thanks.
[12:48] <_Andrew> oh right
[12:48] <ctothej> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39715/
[12:49] <ikonia> ctothej: looks fine
[12:49] <Chris__> Could I pm someone? I need help partitioning my hard drive properly in ubuntu
[12:49] <ctothej> ikonia: ok great thanks.
[12:49] <progek> scguy318 empty in there, I was following a guide which said after running the script I needed to run cvscedega to create the config dir .cvscedega.. I just cannot find it
[12:49] <ikonia> Chris__ just ask the question
[12:49] <Chris__> i cna't ask a question here
[12:49] <Chris__> because
[12:49] <dxdt> Chris__: just ask in here first
[12:49] <Chris__> i won't be able to read it
[12:49] <Chris__> with all this typing
[12:49] <ikonia> Chris__ you can read what I'm typing, so ask here
[12:49] <Artemis3> i have a vfat formatted pendrive, do you know how to change its label?
[12:50] <Chris__> not in this shitty irc client
[12:50] <progek> if I try locate cvscedega it just shows stuff in .WineCVS but it's not there
[12:50] <Chris__> could I please pm you?
[12:50] <ckin2001> progek, sudo find / -name cvscedega
[12:50] <ikonia> Chris__ there is no need for bad langauge
[12:50] <Chris__> or..could we join another room?
[12:50] <Chris__> ok sorry
[12:50] <ikonia> Chris__: ask in the channel
[12:50] <Chris__> ok...
[12:51] <Chris__> I am in the Live CD...basically, I have a 500 gig hard drive... I want about 20 gb for ubuntu, a LOT of space for storage, and maybe 40 or 50 gigs for Windows XP
[12:51] <_Andrew> Chris__: If you ask in the channel more people can help you
[12:51] <Chris__> Could someone help me set it up?
[12:51] <progek> ckin2001 DOH! it was in /home/myUser/bin    interesting it placed it there, I would have thought somewhere else. thanks
[12:51] <ikonia> Chris__ so partition it like that
[12:51] <Chris__> See, you're not helping.
[12:51] <Chris__> I don't know how.
[12:51] <Chris__> That is why i am here.
[12:51] <ckin2001> progek, np, find is a pain to learn, but man is it useful :D
[12:51] <_Andrew> Chris__: I suggest you install windows first
[12:51] <Chris__> ok
[12:51] <Chris__> why though?
[12:51] <ikonia> Chris__ launch the installed - make 2 partitions, a 40 gig one, a 50 gig one and then a smaller one for swap, then a final one made up the rest
[12:52] <ikonia> Chris__ launch the installer
[12:52] <Chris__> ok but...
[12:52] <tetrach> stefg: i think i am going to to just re-size the drive for no and install on the space left over. tks alot for your help
[12:52] <Chris__> do i have to worry about ext3 or whatever?
[12:52] <Chris__> do i just make standard partitions?
[12:52] <Chris__> ntsf?
[12:52] <Chris__> i don't partition a lot
[12:52] <MasterShrek> Chris__, only make the windows install partition ntfs
[12:52] <Chris__> ok
[12:52] <Chris__> so the 40 gb one
[12:52] <MasterShrek> install windows first though
[12:53] <MasterShrek> yea
[12:53] <stefg> Chris__: 64 MB /boot (linux) , then 50 gigs win, then 10 Gigs ubuntu / ,some space for /home, rest /storage
[12:53] <ikonia> Chris__: you parition the disk in the ubuntu live cd - then install windows, then install ubuntu
[12:53] <Chris__> lol
[12:53] <Chris__> confusing
[12:53] <eobanb> Chris__,
[12:53] <Chris__> so this is what i'm gonna do....
[12:53] <ikonia> Chris__: we've told you what to do
[12:54] <Chris__> from the windows cd... i'll create a ntfs space for 40 gb.........and then another space for 50 gb
[12:54] <theron|home> ;s
[12:54] <theron|home> ls
[12:54] <Chris__> so the 50 gb is for ubuntu
[12:54] <Chris__> and what about swap space?
[12:54] <ikonia> I told you - create a small swap space parition
[12:54] <MasterShrek> Chris__, u can just make the 40 gig for windows there, and worry about the rest during the ubuntu install
[12:54] <MasterShrek> leave it as free space or whatever
[12:54] <_Andrew> Chris__: I assume you want to share files between windows xp and ubuntu. Just install windows first with alot of space and keep your media there and then install windows with whatever you have left on the disk. Ubuntu can read your windows partition and will set that up for you when you install it.
[12:54] <Chris__> ahh this is so hard to read
[12:54] <Chris__> in this gnome irc client
[12:54] <Chris__> 1 sec
[12:55] <Hilikus> will ubuntu automatically update pacakegs in a server?
[12:55] <Chris__> so, can i not just make ALL of the partitions from the ubuntu live cd?
[12:55] <nickrud> Chris__: that makes sense, windows will understand your partitioning. then cut up the ubuntu partition as stefg said
[12:55] <Hilikus> packages*
[12:55] <ikonia> Hilikus: not unless you set tiit to
[12:55] <Chris__> what's the difference?
[12:55] <scguy318> Hilikus: not sure, I would imagine no, it would be kinda disruptive
[12:55] <Chris__> someone please pm me
[12:55] <scguy318> Hilikus: to, say, update apache while running a server automatically
[12:55] <Chris__> this is ridiculous
[12:55] <_Andrew> Hilikus: Not by default.. you have to type sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade
[12:55] <scguy318> Chris___: tweak your fonts
[12:55] <ikonia> Chris__: instlal windows - then launch the ubuntu installer
[12:55] <Hilikus> thanks
[12:56] <_Andrew> Hilikus: That will check if you have any updates to do
[12:56] <Chris__> you ok...
[12:56] <Chris__> but in one package
[12:56] <Chris__> spell it out for me again
[12:56] <Chris__> i can't understand when everyone is saying someone
[12:57] <Chris__> it's confusing...
[12:57] <ikonia> install windows. Then launch the ubuntu installer and partition the extra paritions for ubuntu
[12:57] <Chris__> wait
[12:57] <MeRodent> !enter | Chris__
[12:57] <ubotu> Chris__: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:57] <_Andrew> Chris__: Install Windows XP with lots of space then install Ubuntu after that
[12:57] <Chris__> please pm me  ikonia...
[12:57] <ikonia> Chris__: no - you've been told what to do
[12:57] <Glam> can someone help me reinstall ubuntu?
[12:57] <Hilikus> im trying to decide if i want to use phpbb package or if i will install it manually, the package is of course behind the lastest version, what do you guys recommend?
[12:57] <ikonia> Chris__: install windows - then install ubuntu
[12:57] <Chris__> ok
[12:57] <Chris__> install it
[12:58] <Chris__> on 40 gb or so...then just go into ubuntu..and THEn what?
[12:58] <Chris__> i don't know how to partition it properly.
[12:58] <Chris__> in ubuntu
[12:58] <ctothej> how can I stop the sky2 driver from loading? I put it in the blacklist file in /etc/modprobe.d, but it still loads on boot
[12:58] <Chris__> like
[12:58] <ikonia> Chris__:the ubuntu installer will help you
[12:58] <ikonia> Hilikus its personal preference
[12:58] <Chris__> i know..but it's not that easy
[12:58] <Chris__> like
[12:58] <Chris__> wtf is the difference between logical and primary
[12:58] <Chris__> it was giving me some damn error
[12:58] <Chris__> like
[12:58] <_Andrew> Hilikus: If you are going to use PHPBB just download it. Get the latest version and then you need to mod it so spammers don't mess up your board
[12:58] <Chris__> ERROR!!! CAn't start the end before beginninng
[12:58] <Hilikus> ikonia im guessing if its a package, doing the apt-get update that you said would notify me of updates ,whereas manually i wont know
[12:58] <ikonia> Chris__: just make primary paritions, and you've been asked to not use offensive language like WTF
[12:59] <ikonia> Hilikus: very true
[12:59] <Chris__> ok
[12:59] <Hilikus> ok
[12:59] <Hilikus> thanks
[12:59] <_Andrew> Hilikus: Although thats true with PHPbb you really have to add extra spam protection
[12:59] <pyCube> people use phpbb? :-p
[12:59] <Hilikus> even for the packaged version?
[01:00] <Hilikus> pyCube what do you use
[01:00] <Chris__> so last time.... 50 gb for windows  .....then go into ubuntu live cd....install ubuntu on 50 gb etx3 with "/"..... and then just create a sqap space of like.... 1 gig........ and all of the ubuntu partitions i make primary
[01:00] <Chris__> Is this correct?
[01:00] <pyCube> Hilikus: for what?
[01:00] <Chris__> swap*
[01:00] <ikonia> Chris__: sounds good
[01:00] <Chris__> ok thanks
[01:00] <Chris__> :D
[01:00] <Hilikus> pyCube for BB
[01:01] <pyCube> nothing
[01:01] <Glam> uh like, im stuck on the partitioning part
[01:02] <Glam> i have an internal hard drive and then an external harddrive
[01:02] <citrusflavord> what are the steps to building to gnome/sawfish from ubuntu server?
[01:02] <MasterShrek> Glam, whats the problem?
[01:02] <Glam> im trying to figure out how to partition it again
[01:03] <Glam> i have ubuntu before, but then i got rid of it somehow
[01:03] <nickrud> citrusflavord: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop sawfish (ubuntu-desktop comes with metacity)
[01:03] <n0va> trying to open FireFox i get "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" fix ne1?
[01:03] <MasterShrek> u need a swap partition that is roughly as big as how much ram you have, and the rest can be mounted at / or you can break it up and mount the partitions in different places, but its not nessicary
[01:04] <MasterShrek> n0va, try uninstalling it and reinstalling it
[01:04] <rico> n0va, what did you do?
[01:04] <n0va> cklicked icon
[01:04] <nickrud> home! home! everyone needs home, ease of reinstall
[01:04] <n0va> *clicked, then ran in terminal
[01:04] <Glam> im using the swap part from the last install, and then i got rid of the old part where i installed ubuntu and replaced it with a new one
[01:05] <MasterShrek> n0va, also try moving ~/.mozilla or deleting it and try it again
[01:05] <citrusflavord> nickrud thats pretty cool / easier then I thought thanks. does ubuntu-desktop come with all the prepackaged software?
[01:05] <MasterShrek> Glam, ok, so whats the problem? just make sure its going to mount that at /
[01:05] <MasterShrek> then u should be fine
[01:05] <n0va> bit drastic? MasterShrek
[01:05] <nickrud> citrusflavord: yes, the complete desktop: openoffice, mail, firefox, etc
[01:05] <MasterShrek> n0va, thats where your user settings are, it could be something in there
[01:05] <n0va> rgr ty
[01:06] <Glam> uh hold on i'm trying to restart the installation again :X
[01:06] <Glam> and it's not aborting :/
[01:06] <citrusflavord> nickrud: does Kde-desktop come with prepackaged also then?
[01:06] <MasterShrek> yes citrusflavord
[01:06] <nickrud> citrusflavord: yes, but I'm not familiar with exactly what: and it's kubuntu-desktop
[01:07] <Glam> uh...i think the installation froze
[01:07] <Glam> i can't abort it :/
[01:08] <Glam> and i'm up to the prepare disk space
[01:08] <aTypical> Hi, all.  I'm having an issue with the alternate cd install.  It gets to 90% and then freezes.  Is that normal?  Is that a point where it should take some time to get information?  I've waiting about 10 minutes, but nothing.
[01:09] <nickrud> aTypical: brltty-11?
[01:09] <goat|work> which package is the route binary apart of?
[01:09] <HellbreakerCCCP> ummm Greetings mein comrades
[01:09] <nickrud> aTypical: hitting clt-f8 will show you a log of what's happening, you might get a good clue there
[01:09] <Polygon89> where do i download the individual debs for past releases? aka dapper?
[01:09] <aTypical> OK.  Thanks, nickrud.  I'll try that.
[01:10] <nickrud> Polygon89: packages.ubuntu.com
[01:10] <HellbreakerCCCP> i have a question about installing Ubuntu on a comp with windows already on it
[01:10] <_Andrew> Polygon89: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[01:10] <HellbreakerCCCP> i dont want to keep the windows
[01:10] <Polygon89> nicrud, _Andrew im at that place but i see no link to download the deb, only the source code and diff files
[01:10] <HellbreakerCCCP> i just want to keep a few folders from getting deleted when i install linux
[01:11] <HellbreakerCCCP> how would i go about doing this?
[01:11] <HellbreakerCCCP> i cant put it on a portable device atm
[01:11] <Glam> is it possible for the installation to freeze?
[01:11] <goat|work> back them up to a separate location?
[01:11] <HellbreakerCCCP> where to?
[01:11] <_Andrew> Polygon89: You must be clicking the wrong links.. what deb did you want?
[01:11] <Polygon89> im wanting this package here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/base/libc6
[01:11] <Glam> 'cause i keep pressing quit and it's still there [it's been like 5 minutes D:] 
[01:11] <goat|work> HellbreakerCCCP: cd-r?
[01:11] <nickrud> Polygon89: click the architecture of the machine you want the deb for (next to the list of files)
[01:12] <hou5ton> What is a good, user friendly CD burner for Ubuntu?
[01:12] <HellbreakerCCCP> yea i cant put it on cd-r agtm
[01:12] <goat|work> oh
[01:12] <HellbreakerCCCP> other wise i would do that
[01:12] <Polygon89> nickrud, ahhhhh that works :D its hard to see that when the links are the same color as the text ;) much thanks
[01:12] <goat|work> then you may want to make a fat-32 partition HellbreakerCCCP
[01:12] <MeRodent> HellbreakerCCCP, use live cd to run gparted. Add a small fat32 partition and copy the files to it.
[01:12] <goat|work> and stick your data on there
[01:13] <_Andrew> hou5ton: There is one built in. When you pop in a blank CD, an icon pops up on your desktop if you drag items into the CD icon and click burn it will burn those files to the CD
[01:13] <citrusflavord> is it possible/wise to run xorg on move then layer 7?
[01:13] <Glam> uh, what should i do?
[01:13] <Glam> the installation is sorta stuck
[01:13] <Glam> and im trying to quit outta it
[01:13] <HellbreakerCCCP> u think i could put them on the RECOVERY drive?
[01:14] <HellbreakerCCCP> and get them back after the installation?
[01:14] <goat|work> no, thats usually read only by the computer manufacturer
[01:14] <HellbreakerCCCP> k
[01:14] <hou5ton> _Andrew:  agreed ... but it doesn't show me how full the CD is getting as I add things, and there didn't appear to be an intuitive way to remove something from the burn.
[01:14] <MeRodent> hou5ton, try gnomebaker
[01:15] <nickrud> hou5ton: gnomebaker and better (but kde, hence a lot of extra libraries get loaded) k3b
[01:15] <citrusflavord> how does one close xorg?
[01:15] <slain> hi all
[01:15] <gogeta> ctrl alt backspace
[01:16] <hou5ton> MeRodent and nickrud:  thanks
[01:16] <hou5ton> _Andrew:  you too.  :-)
[01:16] <nickrud> citrusflavord: shut down, alt-ctl-f1, log in, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[01:16] <citrusflavord> gogeta doesnt that restart it?
[01:16] <gogeta> yep
[01:16] <slain> or from the terminal "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[01:16] <Glam> uh, a little help here?
[01:16] <_Andrew> Glam: Whats wrong?
[01:17] <nickrud> Glam: I'd turn off the machine. If you haven't done any repartitioning, no problems
[01:17] <gogeta> init 3 works to
[01:17] <Glam> is there another way beside turning it off and then back off?
[01:17] <nickrud> gogeta: not on ubuntu
[01:17] <gogeta> sence when
[01:17] <gogeta> worked for me plenty of times
[01:18] <nickrud> gogeta: rc3.d shows gdm as a start service
[01:18] <gogeta> init 3 shuts it down
[01:18] <gogeta> it will say stoping gdm
[01:18] <gogeta> i dont think it works on boot anymore thow
[01:18] <gogeta> you need to do it afterwords
[01:19] <gogeta> then if you go 5 it will start it again
[01:19] <gogeta> havent done it on the latest ver
[01:19] <nickrud> gogeta: you do this on ubuntu, or red hat
[01:19] <gogeta> may be wrong
[01:20] <DrakeJustice_> you guys should give SLinux a try im tellin' ya... its kubuntu+easyness+more cool hacks... plus more easyness...
[01:20] <gogeta> ubuntu
[01:20] <TeleTubbies_|_> Hi.
[01:20] <DrakeJustice_> anyone in here need any help?
[01:20] <TeleTubbies_|_> DrakeJustice_: Yes
[01:20] <DrakeJustice_> what do you need tele?
[01:20] <gogeta> same hear
[01:20] <TeleTubbies_|_> I just got my Ubuntu CD and I'm completely confused.
[01:21] <gogeta> teletubbies
[01:21] <gogeta> toss it in the drive
[01:21] <gogeta> boot it
[01:21] <DrakeJustice_> TeleTubbies, why are you confused?
[01:21] <TeleTubbies_|_> I put it in my CD drive.
[01:21] <dxdt> hey I just got my cd's for my LUG too!  Little late, but still works.  Gonna put them all around the University
[01:21] <TeleTubbies_|_> Then I couldn't find setup.
[01:21] <DrakeJustice_> after you put the cd in the drive, cut the computer off
[01:21] <nickrud_> nope, no change
[01:21] <dxdt> holy crap type more than 5 words before hitting enter TeleTubbies_|_
[01:21] <gogeta> odd
[01:21] <DrakeJustice_> then cut the computer back on with the disk still in the drive
[01:21] <gogeta> used to work on gusty
[01:22] <TeleTubbies_|_> Okay trying...
[01:22] <TeleTubbies_|_> This is on my laptop
[01:22] <gogeta> you might ned to change to boot order
[01:22] <gogeta> some biops are set harddrive first
[01:22] <nickrud_> gogeta: debian (and by inheritance ubuntu) has never used run levels to differentiate between terminal and X environments
[01:22] <gogeta> nickrud gusty did
[01:22] <TeleTubbies_|_> It is booting Windows.
[01:22] <gogeta> i did it often
[01:22] <stefg> TeleTubbies_|_: Understand that ubuntu isn't a windows application. it's a OS with different paradigms than you are used to, so you might have a read first
[01:23] <nickrud_> gogeta: I run gutsy. Just did it again
[01:23] <gogeta> i had to manuly configure x
[01:23] <DrakeJustice_> what? you never left the chatroom, how did you cut the computer off?
[01:23] <gogeta> and had to use init 3
[01:23] <stefg> !install | TeleTubbies_|_
[01:23] <ubotu> TeleTubbies_|_: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[01:23] <TeleTubbies_|_> draconius: It is on the laptop!
[01:23] <gogeta> couse otherwise x world hardware lockup
[01:23] <TeleTubbies_|_> DrakeJustice_: Realize that most people have more than two PCs
[01:23] <DrakeJustice_> gotcha!
[01:23] <TeleTubbies_|_> :)
[01:24] <MeRodent> TeleTubbies_|_, you may need to change the bios settings to allow you to boot from CD 1st
[01:24] <gogeta> ill go try it
[01:24] <DrakeJustice_> sry... im not sure... is it a really old laptop?
[01:24] <DrakeJustice_> is it a edgy, feisty, or gutsy cd?
[01:24] <Elda> meh ....
[01:24] <TeleTubbies_|_> It is brand new
[01:24] <TeleTubbies_|_> Gutsy
[01:24] <Elda> I have to make it stop autojoining me on here
[01:24] <DrakeJustice_> try a newer CD or SLinux...
[01:24] <TeleTubbies_|_> Wait I'm not sure
[01:25] <DrakeJustice_> i don't know then man... sounds like an unsupported cdrom drive, or maybe bios settings have to be configured to boot the CD-rom before the harddrive
[01:25] <TeleTubbies_|_> It is Ubuntu
[01:25] <stefg> TeleTubbies_|_: you shouldn't use that. Gutsy is a building site, and *will* break a couple of times before the final release
[01:25] <TeleTubbies_|_> Now I got it starting...
[01:25] <stefg> !gutsy TeleTubbies_|_
[01:25] <stefg> !gutsy | TeleTubbies_|_

[01:25] <DrakeJustice_> good job!
[01:25] <TeleTubbies_|_> uh oh error
[01:26] <DrakeJustice_> lol
[01:26] <DrakeJustice_> the power of modern linux... lol
[01:26] <DrakeJustice_> what is the error, teletubbies?
[01:26] <gnubuntu11> TeleTubbies maybe a troll :)
[01:26] <Glam> teletubbies are creepy
[01:27] <Glam> :/
[01:27] <DragoraN> what does mean "certificate is not yet valid", time and date is correct
[01:27] <Glam> ok, when the prepare disk space installing part comes up, my partitioned part doesn't come up
[01:27] <Glam> so do i go into manual?
[01:27] <gogeta> humm
[01:28] <gogeta> looks like it was changed
[01:28] <Supaplex> I need an apt mirror please. http://releases.ubuntu.com is apparently only for cd images.
[01:28] <gogeta> my other services stop but x doesent
[01:28] <Gumby> Glam, are you sure the partitioner is using the right hard drive?
[01:28] <LjL> Supaplex: {two-letters-countrycode}.archive.ubuntu.com
[01:28] <LjL> !source-o-matic > Supaplex    (Supaplex, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:28] <gogeta> it used to i think befor the live cd style
[01:28] <bbardlbradd> Hey, I'm having trouble with Banshee, does anyone know why, or have an idea for why, when I start Banshee, it takes seriously, 3-5 minutes to come up... The splash screen sits on "loading GUI" for about 5 minutes
[01:28] <Glam> the guided is showing up my internal hdd and external hdd
[01:28] <MeRodent> Glam, if you use the resize option it will allocate swap automatically. btw. Try keep your typing to one block.
[01:28] <Glam> but i partitioned another part of my hdd
[01:29] <TeleTubbies_|_> Something is VERY strange here...
[01:29] <Glam> just for ubuntu
[01:29] <bbardlbradd> "loading user interface" is what it actually tells me...
[01:29] <TeleTubbies_|_> Something is really weird with my Ubuntu CD.
[01:29] <veynom> what does this mean :   :DSOUND_MixOne problem with underrun detection
[01:29] <TeleTubbies_|_> This error is weird. Never seen this error before.
[01:29] <Gumby> Glam, if it shows the hard drve then it shows all partitions on that hard drive that have been properly partitioned
[01:29] <vocx> !enter > TeleTubbies_|_
[01:29] <TeleTubbies_|_> http://pastebin.ca/727389 - This is my error.
[01:30] <vocx> !enter > Glam
[01:30] <TeleTubbies_|_> Not sure why it would do this.
[01:30] <bbardlbradd> Banshee also stalls when I try to connect to a stream, and if I switch from Library to Radio and back to library
[01:30] <DrakeJustice_> h/o teletubby
[01:30] <TeleTubbies_|_> http://pastebin.ca/727389 - Should I report this kernel error to kernel.org or to Ubuntu?
[01:31] <TeleTubbies_|_> h/o ?
[01:31] <gogeta> yrp nickrud they did change the configs to start x evn at runlevel 3
[01:31] <DrakeJustice_> hold on a sec
[01:31] <gogeta> its a ubuntu thing
[01:31] <Glam> so since the ubuntu part i partitioned it would go under the external hdd under guided, not as a seperate part?
[01:31] <goat|work> anyone know what package the route binary is in?
[01:31] <veynom> !libjack
[01:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libjack - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:31] <gogeta> you can change it back thow
[01:32] <dxdt> that was one of the better trolls I think I've seen
[01:32] <DrakeJustice_> sum1 ban TeleTubby!
[01:32] <DrakeJustice_> i r so lame...
[01:32] <LjL> DrakeJustice_: you might have noticed your request was already fulfilled before you even asked.
[01:32] <Glam> so the partitioned part would go under the external hdd in guided?
[01:32] <Glam> not as a seperate part?
[01:33] <DrakeJustice_> thx
[01:34] <Glam> so i'll take the silence as a yes?
[01:34] <vocx> !who > Glam
[01:34] <vocx> !patience > Glam
[01:34] <Gumby> !enter > vocx
[01:34] <Gumby> hehehe
[01:35] <Glam> /rolleyes
[01:35] <Gumby> Glam, I always manually partition so I have no idea re: guided partitioning
[01:35] <goat|work> glam can you rephrase your question?
[01:36] <Glam> i partitioned my external hdd into 3 parts
[01:36] <goat|work> ok
[01:36] <Glam> 1 part is related to windows
[01:36] <Glam> another part is a swap, and then the last part is for ubuntu
[01:36] <goat|work> your putting your OS on an external HD?   ok, so whats your question?
[01:37] <Glam> i want to install ubuntu onto the external hdd space is set out just for it
[01:37] <goat|work> then don't use guided
[01:37] <Glam> then go under manual?
[01:38] <goat|work> do manual, and set tthe 3rd partition to /
[01:38] <goat|work> and 2nd to swap
[01:38] <ganoush> I'm looking to run virtual hosting on ubuntu and am curious how postfix can handle multiple domains.
[01:38] <ppj> oh my god i missed amarok
[01:38] <RoC_MasterMind__> Hey what's with this "your router has a bug?" is this new?  I don't think my router has a bug and I've never gotten this before.
[01:38] <Gumby> Glam, running an OS off of an external hdd doesnt always work.  YOu\ll have to e sure that the kernel has the drivers needed to run your hard drive, usb, etc compiled into it.  The last time I tried was awhile ago and the necessary modules werent compiled in
[01:38] <nickrud> Glam: and I'd suggest writing grub to the mbr of the external, that way windows will still boot if the external is not plugged in.
[01:38] <dxdt> ppj: lol me too I had to install it cause Rhythmbox was making me want to kill people
[01:39] <ppj> dxdt, lol, i run ubuntu just for amarok
[01:39] <gogeta> xmms
[01:39] <gogeta> is the best
[01:39] <Gumby> mplayer
[01:39] <ppj> nothx.
[01:39] <ppj> i have 50k ogg/mp3s
[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> gogeta: its a little dated.. i don't think its even updated anymore, audacious is way better
[01:39] <thorett> how do i get help?
[01:39] <ppj> i like having a nice little sql database
[01:39] <gogeta> ppj riaa commith
[01:40] <Y3k> sudo chown is not working for me, "sudo chown game:game <dir>" keeps the dir still owned by root
[01:40] <ppj> gogeta, i deejay!
[01:40] <gogeta> lol
[01:40] <vocx> !ask | thorett
[01:40] <Y3k> any ideas?
[01:40] <ubotu> thorett: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:40] <ppj> i probably don't have any sony/bmg music anyway
[01:40] <thorett> oh
[01:40] <gogeta> hey they sue dead people think a dj is gonna stop em
[01:40] <Glam> i had it work for me before, but i uninstalled it
[01:40] <nickrud> Y3k: is this on an ntfs or vfat partition?
[01:40] <thorett> well, i just updated my gutsy version and my X seemed to "crash"
[01:40] <thorett> when i  rebooted
[01:40] <Y3k> on a ext3 partition i believe (if that means anything)
[01:41] <nickrud> Y3k: yes, it means it should work
[01:41] <macd> a mysql patch for rythmbox would rock.
[01:41] <thorett> i suspect it has something to do with the "linux-restricted-modules-generic" package is held back
[01:41] <Gumby> Y3k, the directory is still root:root or the files within the directory are?
[01:41] <Y3k> the dir
[01:41] <vocx> !gutsy | thorett
[01:41] <ubotu> thorett: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[01:41] <thorett> !gutsy
[01:41] <Some_Person> Why is Gutsy taking so long? I WANT IT NOW!
[01:41] <Gumby> Y3k, and game is a user and group?
[01:42] <thorett> any suggestions?
[01:42] <arghh2d2> k Some_Person
[01:42] <Y3k> Gumby, yes
[01:42] <ReD2121> where can i get the ATI drivers to get my 1680x1050 resolution back
[01:42] <Glam> ok, im just double checking, the ubuntu goes on / and swap is under swap
[01:42] <MeRodent> thorett, ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:42] <thorett> ok thx
[01:42] <vocx> !ATI | ReD2121
[01:42] <ubotu> ReD2121: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:42] <nickrud> Y3k: and you're sure your sudo is working elsewhere?
[01:43] <Some_Person> nVidia
[01:43] <Y3k> hmm.. let me try changing ownership on other folders
[01:43] <Gumby> Y3k, try sudo -s and then doing the command (without sudo)
[01:43] <Glam> it comes up with an error that the system file doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it
[01:43] <nevron> does anyone know howto set the rwin values under feisty
[01:43] <kjp> anyone know of a folder-actions program for linux ?
[01:43] <nickrud> Y3k: or sudo iptables -L , that's a good safe usage of sudo
[01:44] <nevron> does anyone know howto set the rwin values under feisty
[01:44] <thorett> guess im the only one with the problem, huh
[01:45] <nevron> is there a channel where i can find info about setting the rwin value
[01:45] <vocx> !repeat | nevron
[01:45] <ubotu> nevron: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[01:45] <nevron> does anyone know howto set the rwin values under feisty
[01:45] <nickrud> thorett: yes, that would cause your X to fail, if you're using the restricted modules. You can switch to the free ones until restricted catches
[01:45] <nickrud> up
[01:45] <thorett> okay
[01:45] <nevron> nobody knows about rwin?
[01:46] <MeRodent> !enter | nickrud  :P
[01:46] <ubotu> nickrud  :P: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:46] <thorett> so basically i did not screw up my system, i just have to wait for the package to arrive?
[01:46] <Gumby> nevron, if someone knows they will answer
[01:46] <nickrud> thorett: simplest way is sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg
[01:46] <thorett> what does that do?
[01:46] <nevron> i am getting speeds like 20kb and i am on a 4096 kbps adsl
[01:46] <nevron> can anyone help me with rwin
[01:47] <nickrud> thorett: resets your X server definition to the default. Sort of the opposite of using restricted manager
[01:47] <Y3k> Gumby: sudo -s and then doing command without sudo doesn't work, operation not permitted
[01:47] <thorett> oh
[01:47] <thorett> cool
[01:47] <hgjjjf> what can i do on ubuntu now that i have the fbi watching my ip
[01:47] <thorett> but ill stick with the restricted, im happy with it
[01:47] <Gumby> Y3k, sounds like sudo is broken
[01:47] <nevron> gumby where else can i ask about rwin values
[01:47] <macd> nevron, linux now does TCP auto-tuning, is there any reason you feel the need to change that?
[01:47] <thorett> ill see if its out when i wake up tomorrow
[01:47] <jpt9> hey
[01:47] <jpt9> i'm running the gutsy beta from the LiveCD.
[01:47] <Glam> is the partition i'm trying to install ubuntu is suppose to be mounted?
[01:48] <Pici> jpt9: #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy questions please.
[01:48] <nickrud> thorett: I'm impatient, gotta have X now :)
[01:48] <jpt9> okay.
[01:48] <nevron> macd i ll tell you my rwin value than maybe you can think of that :)
[01:48] <thorett> well its 10 to 2 in the night here
[01:48] <thorett> so im kinda lazy
[01:48] <nickrud> zzzzzzzzz
[01:48] <Glam> im not sure if it's suppose to be mounted or not
[01:48] <Gumby> nevron, you tell me your rwin value and I'll explain how to use than/then properly
[01:48] <nevron>  Your TCP Window limits you to: 234 kbps (29 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
[01:48] <nevron>  Your TCP Window limits you to: 94 kbps (12 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
[01:48] <nevron> where my connection is 4096kbps!
[01:49] <nevron> so autotuning doesnt work in my case
[01:49] <RoC_MasterMind__> I like VLC, but whenever it's open, the screensaver never turns on, even if it's paused.  Any ideas?
[01:49] <overclucker> hgjjjf: lay low
[01:49] <thorett> but thanks u guys, been great help! i really appreciate it, kinda warms up a newbie-heart
[01:49] <Y3k> Gumby, never mind, i figured it out... don't be in <user1>, use su - <user2> and try to sudo, it doesn't work right
[01:49] <macd> nevron, the default rwin is set to 5840
[01:49] <Y3k> thanks for the help
[01:50] <Gumby> Y3k, hehe, nice
[01:50] <nickrud> lol
[01:50] <clouder> RoC_MasterMind__: there is a setting somewhere under preferences to let the screensaver come on
[01:50] <hgjjjf> overclucker,  hey called me and said they got me for downloading movies i told her someone hacked into my comp and wireless she said ok well we are watchin  now and if u do another ur goin to prison for 10 yrs
[01:50] <nevron> no i think it is 5856
[01:50] <macd> nevron, so I suspect the method your using to check is flawed, if its a website could you give me the url?
[01:50] <nevron> www.speedguide.net
[01:50] <thorett> love and devotion lives on!
[01:50] <acidchild> hgjjjf: HAHAHAHAHA LOSER
[01:50] <RoC_MasterMind__> clouder, I want the screensaver to come on when video is paused, but to be turned off when video is playing...VLC does not offer that flexibility
[01:50] <nevron> there is an analyzer there
[01:50] <acidchild> you take your ISP's word seriously?
[01:50] <clouder> RoC_MasterMind__: probably not, but I've never looked into it
[01:50] <nevron> macd are you following?
[01:51] <macd> nevron, yes, I already used it
[01:51] <Glam> um, i keep getting a warning when i try to go forward
[01:51] <nevron> ok i think my rwin should be set to around 66900 or so
[01:51] <clouder> RoC_MasterMind__: you could always use ctrl-alt-L
[01:51] <macd> it gives me the same values, though I can assure you my download isnt limited to the reported speeds, Im on 10mb sdsl and I see the max speed from it
[01:51] <Glam> something about the files system doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it, do ignore it?
[01:51] <nevron> but now it is only 5856
[01:52] <overclucker> hgjjjf: what you need to do is lookup the number that called you at that time, and verify that it was the fbi
[01:52] <macd> nevron,  it reports me as the same 5856
[01:52] <wabiD> has anyone tried compiling xbmc for linux?
[01:52] <hgjjjf> overclucker,  i did it came back it was
[01:52] <macd> nevron, and my download speed test from speedtest.net is 8904kbps
[01:52] <vocx> overclucker, hgjjjf acidchild that's off topic
[01:52] <nevron> ok macd how about the things under bandwidth delay product
[01:53] <overclucker> hgjjjf: #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:53] <macd> Your TCP Window limits you to: 234 kbps (29 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
[01:53] <RoC_MasterMind__> clouder, I could, but I want a screen saver...I have vlc open all the time...but now no ss
[01:53] <hgjjjf> overclucker,  i got the 1-800 numb and yes it is offtopic so im goin to room #wwed
[01:53] <macd> nevron, so thats obviously a flawed calculation
[01:53] <nevron> it says something like your tcp window limits you
[01:53] <macd> nevron, the tcp stack auto tunes, its very possible its not being utilized enough at the test time to make it retune itself
[01:54] <nevron> ok but the strange thing is that they are true for my download and upload speeds :)
[01:54] <nevron> i am suffering
[01:54] <macd> nevron, does speedtest.net report that as your speed?
[01:54] <nevron> let me see
[01:55] <procrastinator> for some reason when sharing a folder in feisty via smb, upon accessing it in windows, it requests a user/pass, any ideas how to allow all access and/or what that current user/pass is?
[01:56] <gogeta> should be your ionux user pass
[01:56] <gogeta> linux
[01:56] <macd> procrastinator, it wants your linux boxes user/pass , and you can refer to the samba guide on the ubuntu wiki for ways to make it perm
[01:56] <nevron> ok speedtest.net reports 3300kbps and there are some updates running
[01:56] <nevron> at the background
[01:56] <datharn> hello
[01:57] <Skyracer> Hey guys.
[01:57] <datharn> i am new to ubuntu
[01:57] <Skyracer> Anyone available for help?
[01:57] <vocx> !ask | Skyracer
[01:57] <ubotu> Skyracer: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:57] <Skyracer> :)
[01:57] <macd> nevron, well, it looks to me like the site you were using is flawed or something in its calculations.
[01:57] <ReD2121> anyone know how i can get my resolution back to 1680 x 1050 using an ATI card
[01:58] <Skyracer> Ok, I am new to Linux, and was thinking about dual booting with XP.
[01:58] <nevron> macd i think you may be right anyway so you tell me that theres no way to set rwin values under ubuntu
[01:58] <macd> nevron, oh no, you can, but you have to set every TCP connection property, and there is no way for you todo it better than the kernel can
[01:58] <datharn> i have a ubuntu studio CD...how do i get it to load on boot-up?
[01:58] <Skyracer> Now, what is the best way to set up the partitions?
[01:58] <kyja> what ever happened to that applet that took screenshots?
[01:59] <dxdt> ReD2121: probably you'll need to install fglrx drivers if the normal drivers don't work.  Then edit xorg.conf to do it
[01:59] <vocx> ReD2121, I already told you to read the ATI guides. But you haven't made a better question, you just repeat, but don't even say what model you have.
[01:59] <nevron> i see macd can you tell me about snr margins and other stuff maybe the problem is about my isp?
[01:59] <dxdt> kyja: ?  What do you mean?  I just press printscreen and I get a screenshot?
[01:59] <macd> nevron, you should contact your ISP about that kind of information
[01:59] <Skyracer> And also, can I just mount the image to install, instead of creating the disk?
[01:59] <ReD2121> its a Dell 1505 with the ATI Radeon x1300 mobility
[02:00] <kyja> dxdt, well there was an applet you could put in your menu... it took a screen shot and saved it to a folder of your choice. I like having it send to my website folder. so click and send a link that easy
[02:01] <gogeta> skyracer and how would you boot it
[02:01] <gogeta> LOL
[02:01] <Skyracer> Well, I have XP installed
[02:01] <nevron> ok just because i am curious can you tell me your attenuations for ds and us
[02:01] <nevron> if you wont i ll understand that
[02:01] <gogeta> linux does not installer under xp
[02:01] <Nugget_> Hi
[02:01] <kyja> I guess prtscreen does the same thing sort of. cept it asks every time
[02:01] <gogeta> you need to boot into it
[02:01] <Skyracer> Eh ok
[02:02] <gogeta> well acully there is a way
[02:02] <gogeta> but you would lose performance
[02:02] <Skyracer> Alright, I'll burn the disk.
[02:02] <Nugget_> I cant seem to connect to my wireless network from my new laptop I just installed ubuntu on (the network is up, I know for a fact) ... it just keeps trying to connect in the icon at the bottom then times out... is there a log I can read from the attempt?
[02:02] <Skyracer> Thought it was possible to do it that way.
[02:02] <Skyracer> No big deal though
[02:02] <Braxt> I just added a 2nd hdd to my feisty box , but I can't add or remove files.
[02:02] <Scunizi> I'm creating a seperate home partition in preperation for installing Gutsy (now Dapper).  In moving my data across I noticed that there is a hidden Nautilus directory in /home.  If Nautilus is an upgraded version in Gutsy, what will happen?
[02:02] <gogeta> the unoffical wubi installer installerunder vfat
[02:03] <Braxt> how do I change to the owner
[02:03] <macd> nevron, I cant even get to that information in my dsl bridge
[02:03] <macbook> hi good nigth
[02:03] <Nugget_> I cant seem to connect to my wireless network from my new laptop I just installed ubuntu on (the network is up, I know for a fact) ... it just keeps trying to connect in the icon at the bottom then times out... is there a log I can read from the attempt?
[02:03] <macbook> I have a question
[02:03] <macbook>  i hnoob
[02:03] <emeriste> When I first installed Ubuntu it was from a disk that came with the book I bought. I didn't know at the time that there was a 64 bit version of Ubuntu since I have a 64 bit computer. So now my Ubuntu is not as powerful as my computer. What will be the easiest way to switch to the more powerful Ubuntu without losing everything I've done?
[02:03] <nevron> macd i am sorry to bother you but would you be kind enough to look at my settings if i paste binned it or so
[02:04] <macbook> sorry I noob
[02:04] <macd> nevron, thats fine
[02:04] <gogeta> emeriste i think its aruldy 64bit
[02:04] <nevron> ok i must find a place to paste
[02:04] <Scunizi> emeriste, what were you running before?  a version of windows? which one. probably not 64 bit.
[02:04] <emeriste> I was running Windows XP.
[02:04] <Mahr> *Sigh* Latest updates for my Gutsy T5 just ruined everything! No more Compiz =(
[02:04] <jrib> emeriste: 32bit is better for desktop
[02:05] <emeriste> Oh yeah? Why's that?
[02:05] <macbook>  i have a problem whit my sound in my laptop gateway MT3422
[02:05] <emeriste> I have an Athlon 3500+
[02:05] <Nugget_> what should I use to view windows shares on the network?
[02:05] <Mahr> Because I can't install the Restricted driver modules anymore
[02:05] <nevron> macd here is the link http://pastebin.com/m683c70b8
[02:05] <gogeta> humm
[02:05] <Mahr> So I can't install any nvidia drivers or anything.
[02:05] <gogeta> if you made a home partation you will eb fine
[02:05] <gogeta> sence anything in there would not be lost
[02:05] <Mahr> And ofc I didn't lol
[02:05] <gogeta> be
[02:05] <fyrestrtr> Nugget_: Browse Network
[02:06] <emeriste> So youre saying that the best thing to do is not get the 64 bit Ubuntu?
[02:06] <vocx> emeriste, if you want to inform yourself about 64-bit read the 64-bit subforum in ubuntuforums.org       It isn't really more "powerful", why do you think that?
[02:06] <emeriste> Doesn't that hurt me if I want to have the best software?
[02:06] <Mahr> I do have a second harddrive though so I might aswell just move some data and then reinstall.
[02:06] <gogeta> not relly
[02:06] <Scunizi> emeriste, you can run 64 bit Ubuntu and do just fine.  You will have some extra headaches getting some software to work.  Most comes in 32bit
[02:06] <jrib> emeriste: because proprietary software like flash and java plugin are only 32bit
[02:06] <stefgl> Nugget_:  nautilus has an internal smb client. -> places -> connect to server
[02:06] <pwnt-> I just got my ubuntu upgraded to gutsy. whats the first thing i have to do for source.list? I think its getting old packages.
[02:06] <DragoraN> how to set notBefore field in openssl.cnf
[02:06] <macd> nevron, I dont know how far you are from your central office or local dslam, but those values dont look too bad really
[02:07] <emeriste> If you get a 64 bit Ubuntu then you can't use flash or java plugin?
[02:07] <Nugget_> fyrestrtr, there is no connect to server option
[02:07] <gogeta> you can but it needs extra layers and libs
[02:07] <macd> nevron, Id say they fall within the acceptable margins for signal loss at even the most extreme distances
[02:07] <gogeta> aka slower
[02:07] <vocx> !flash64 | emeriste
[02:07] <ubotu> emeriste: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[02:07] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> hey, emeriste, I've recently downed my 64-bit ubuntu to the 32-bit because of a BUNCH of incomability issues with software
[02:07] <Nugget_> go -> network
[02:07] <jrib> emeriste: more headaches
[02:07] <emeriste> hm. I see.
[02:07] <macbook> hi
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: shouldn't swap be a logical partition?
[02:07] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> I would recommend only 32-bit of Ubuntu until more and more people adapt to the new idea of 64-bit computing...
[02:07] <pwnt-> do i need to change the repositories of my apt-get & synaptic after finishing updating from Feisty to gutsy?
[02:07] <nevron> macd why do i have such slow dl speeds than can you think of anything we know it s not about ubuntu already right?
[02:08] <emeriste> For some applications I thought it could make a big difference. Like what if I run Mathematica or something?
[02:08] <Soskel> hi
[02:08] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> It's not that difficult to partition a new 64-bit system anyways, these days, what with HDD being so damn cheap :)
[02:08] <Soskel> how can I install java runtime via terminal?
[02:08] <gogeta> well yes 64 bit apps are going to run better but thers just not enough of them
[02:08] <gogeta> to worry abought it
[02:08] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> no, there is no real difference, except with security and if you are running extremely intense apps
[02:08] <jrib> !java > Soskel (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:08] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> the problem with it is mainly support
[02:08] <ReD2121> whats the "run" command
[02:08] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> not many people are jumping on the 64-bit bandwagon JUST yet
[02:08] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> it takes time...
[02:09] <emeriste> Are you suggesting maybe dual booting my regular Ubuntu and a 64 bit Ubuntu separately for special apps?
[02:09] <telliott> Anyone familiar with wubi that can help me out?
[02:09] <DrakeJustice_> !java
[02:09] <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
[02:09] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> the run command allows you to run things...ALT+F2
[02:09] <antler> why would you downgrade to 32bit? just downgrade the software
[02:09] <macd> nevron, you said your download was 330 on speedtest.net ? that would fall in line with 4mb adsl
[02:09] <stefgl> !wubi
[02:09] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[02:09] <pwnt-> guys do i do "sudo apt-get upgrade" or "sudo apt-get update" Which one comes first? please.
[02:09] <HuxFluxTux> Can anyone tell me if its possible listening to NHL radio with firefox? .. link: http://www.nhl.com/scores/index.html  I have all plug-ins installed
[02:09] <pwnt-> i just got gutsy
[02:09] <rem> i've got a Sun machines arriving soon
[02:09] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> For instance, say you are wanting to run FIreFox, you would hit ALT+F2 then type in FIREFOX, [ENTER] 
[02:09] <Braxt> "/media/disk/srv" cannot be deleted because you do not have permissions to modify its parent folder. this is the error that pops up when I try to clean my second hdd .. how can I fix this?
[02:09] <vocx> emeriste, what applications? dual booting? what?
[02:09] <rem> its a 64-bit UltraSparc III
[02:09] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> That would load firefox for ya
[02:09] <rem> designed for solaris of course
[02:09] <emeriste> dual booting means having more than one OS on your system.
[02:09] <macbook> i find in google but dont have any answer
[02:09] <gogeta> the wubi installeer uses vaft
[02:09] <nevron> macd okay but i never see that speed from any server what might be bottlenecking my connection,
[02:10] <gogeta> no partations
[02:10] <jrib> emeriste: no, but feel free to try both and make your own conclusion
[02:10] <vocx> IndyGunFreak, logical and primary partitions aren't really different.
[02:10] <gogeta> but its a perforance hit
[02:10] <gogeta> like running the os out of a zip file
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> vocx: yeah, i was just poking around and figured that out.
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> tbhanks..
[02:10] <telliott> So no one in chat will talk about wubi.
[02:10] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> ReD2121 : I answered your question to the best of my knowledge, I believe, hope you were able to see it and understand ;)
[02:10] <Scunizi> emeriste, do you do any intensive compilations? video editing etc..? then 64bit would be very usefull.
[02:10] <macd> nevron, sounds like its the other end, or network congestion, if the speed tests properly, you just eliminated your connection, your dsl modem, your router (if you have one) and your PC.
[02:10] <emeriste> When I installed Ubuntu I originally had Windows on here so the disk partitioned my hard drive to make room for Ubuntu. Now I don't want Windows anymore. Is there a way to let Ubuntu take over the whole system and give it that space?
[02:11] <emeriste> No I don't. The most cpu intensive thing I anticipate doing is running mathematica/maple.
[02:11] <nevron> ok what is a network congestion :)
[02:11] <nevron> ok i got what you are saying
[02:11] <hobean> how do i use command line ftp to transfer directories and their subdirs?
[02:11] <nevron> anyway maybe i should contact my isp thanks very much i appreciate it
[02:12] <nevron> macd you are my hero :)
[02:12] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> haha, emeriste, unfortunately, I cannot answer your question...apologies, but I'm also a fair newbie ;)
[02:12] <hgjjjf> what is a good linux disk wiping app for the hd?
[02:12] <emeriste> no worries. :)
[02:12] <arnath> goddamit, grub keeps giving me the error 22: no such partition :@
[02:12] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> hgjjjf : fdisk, I believe...
[02:12] <macd> nevron, it couldnt hurt to contact them, thats for sure.
[02:12] <arnath> (i jus tinstalled xp and went in wiv live cd to fix grub)
[02:12] <nevron> in my country it surely will :(
[02:12] <macd> hgjjjf, you can also write all zeros using the 'dd' command.
[02:13] <emeriste> Do any of you know how I can let Ubuntu 'take over' the windows side of my hard drive and give all of my computer's resources over to Ubuntu?
[02:13] <Scunizi> emeriste, you can recover that space.. but there are steps. move /home to its own partition, delete the other partitions and reinstall the system.  Root needs max 12 gig, swap 2gig the rest /home
[02:13] <dorothygale> somehow i hosed my sound when I was configuring my services
[02:13] <vocx> emeriste, mathematica and maple have Linux versions? I didn't know. But seriously think this, which applications would benefit from using the 64 bit version?
[02:13] <emeriste> Hm this seems very difficult.
[02:13] <hgjjjf> macd,  i got data i need to wipe off and show no trace what so ever
[02:13] <dorothygale> can anyone help me get back up?
[02:13] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> And FYI, as I've come to find out, if you get Error 17 on GRUB, it's probably because your windows partition is attempting to inject itself over Ubuntu (main thing you can do, unplug the SATA/EIDE cable)
[02:13] <emeriste> Yes they both have Linux versions.
[02:14] <stefgl> !backup | dorothygale
[02:14] <ubotu> dorothygale: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[02:14] <macd> hgjjjf, well to trained data forensics people there is no such thing as unrecoverable short of physically damaging the platters, but using dd to write all zeros is pretty safe for the rest of us.
[02:14] <emeriste> I don't know, however if they have 64 bit linux versions.
[02:14] <vocx> emeriste, just erase the windows FAT32 or NTFS partition and recreate a new partition in it with EXT3, and mount it in your filesystem by adding the entry in /etc/fstab
[02:14] <dorothygale> um no
[02:14] <dorothygale> can anyone help me get my sound working agin
[02:14] <vinboy> is there a netstat gui or anything similar?
[02:15] <stefgl> !sound | dorothygale
[02:15] <ubotu> dorothygale: 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
[02:15] <Scunizi> emeriste, here's a link I'm using for moving home. Keep in mind when they say -null and -sparce they mean --null and --sparce
[02:15] <emeriste> It sounds like what I really have to do is just back up all of my data and then reinstall the latest ubuntu after formatting my hard drive.
[02:15] <dorothygale> alsa service is started
[02:16] <stefgl> dorothygale: What does lspci | grep audio turn up ?
[02:16] <dorothygale> so can anyone helpme or am I just going to get bot links?
[02:16] <nevron> is there a tool like net limiter for ubuntu where i can watch my network traffic?
[02:16] <Scunizi> emeriste, download and burn the iso for gparted live or system rescue cd.  They can be invaluable in changing your partitions.
[02:16] <hobean> how do i use command line ftp to transfer a directory including all of its subdirs and files?
[02:16] <emeriste> I don't feel up to messing around with partitions.
[02:16] <susan> Could one of you guide me to the best computer components, as I am in need for a system upgrade. Thank you.
[02:16] <crimsun> nevron: darkstat?
[02:17] <emeriste> How about this approach: I'll back up all of my data. Then I will just reinstall Ubuntu but tell it to take over the whole cpu rather than make any partitions?
[02:17] <jcsackett> dorothygale: i just dropped in, what's your problem? not that i can solve it mind, but if i can i'm happy too.
[02:17] <nevron> sudo apt-get install darkstat?
[02:17] <dorothygale> stefgl00:0c.0 Multimedia audio controller: Yamaha Corporation YMF-744B [DS-1S Audio Controller]  (rev 02)
[02:17] <hgjjjf> macd,  so there is no way to wipe it clear from the best of the best?
[02:17] <vocx> emeriste, not hard messing with partitions. Do you use GRUB, does it work okay? Then you won't have any problems booting and that's it.
[02:17] <macd> emeriste, wel there is only 3 ways todo what you want, 1.backup and resize, 2.dont back and resize, 3.format and reinstall
[02:17] <emeriste> I use Grub.
[02:17] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> hey nevron, try going to your terminal and typing: apt-cache search netstat
[02:17] <dorothygale> it was working before, I changed some services around and now it is not working
[02:18] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> that will give you a list of a few GUI-driven modules you can get for netstats
[02:18] <Scunizi> emeriste, you can. but during the reinstall it's still a good idea to put /home in it's own partition just for these occations AND for upgrading every 6 months to the latest ubuntu version if you plan to.
[02:18] <macd> hgjjjf, short of using thermite, absolutely not
[02:18] <RoC_MasterMind__> susan, newegg.com
[02:18] <jpt9> hey.
[02:18] <emeriste> macd: Format and reinstall seems the easiest to me.. Although I don't look forward to putting back all my software and setting it all up again.
[02:18] <dorothygale> I tried to change it back to the way it was before but that did not help
[02:18] <Scunizi> susan, tigerdirect
[02:18] <jpt9> if using kill -9 won't kill something, are there any alternatives?
[02:18] <macd> emeriste, then just use the livecd to resize the partition.
[02:18] <macd> jpt9, did you sudu kill -9 ?
[02:18] <jcsackett> anyone know if there's a compelling reason to keep evolution around if you don't use it's features? does any part of ubuntu require it?
[02:19] <nevron> cApN_rAiNy_WiSh thank you but is there an application where i can see things with a gui
[02:19] <jpt9> macd: yeah.
[02:19] <emeriste> will resizing the partition kill windows and let Ubuntu take over all of my computer?
[02:19] <macd> emeriste, its literally a 5 click operation
[02:19] <jpt9> i'm trying to kill synaptic; the GUI froze and I force quit it; however, synaptic is still running.
[02:19] <RoC_MasterMind__> jpt9, if you did sudo kill -9, then it's either dead or a zombie, either way it's gone.
[02:19] <macd> emeriste, you delete the windows partition, then expand your linux one into the free space, you can do it all using the livecd, its really quite easy.
[02:19] <Scunizi> emeriste, yes.. not just resizing but deleting then recreating
[02:19] <jpt9> it doesn't work, though.
[02:19] <emeriste> Okay I'll try using the Live CD then.
[02:19] <jpt9> i'm running from the LiveCD, in case that matters.
[02:20] <dorothygale> gah
[02:20] <macd> jpt9, what does 'ps aux | grep yourprocname" say for the PIDs status?
[02:20] <emeriste> So you run Ubuntu from the Live CD and do these things, and then when you boot into your local Ubuntu all the changes are still in effect?
[02:20] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> nevron : stand by
[02:20] <stefgl> dorothygale: it might just be muted. checked alsamixer ?
[02:20] <macd> emeriste, yes
[02:20] <emeriste> Okay that sounds promising.
[02:20] <jpt9> where's the status listed?
[02:20] <jpt9> and doesn't ps normally display a header?
[02:20] <KevlarSoul> I installed Ubuntu on a partition it made, everything looked great, when I rebooted there was no dual boot screen, went straight into winblows?
[02:20] <dorothygale> stefgl I did it is all the way up
[02:21] <macd> david    17012  0.2  2.4 123216 25116 ?        Sl   Oct02  10:59 xchat
[02:21] <dorothygale> I did this with the alsamixer command
[02:21] <macd> that status is Sl
[02:21] <jpt9> in that case, it's Ds
[02:21] <Some_Person> KevlarSoul: so you installed, rebooted, and windows came up?
[02:21] <KevlarSoul> Some_Person yes, like I did nothing.

[02:22] <Ltar> I can't boot to CD anymore.. I've never had a problem before, but I found myself unable to (no bootable device detected) when I tried to boot into a live CD to format my new HDD.

[02:23] <jpt9> and when i try to do anything else with synaptic, it complains that there's still a copy running, and that it's attempting to bring it to the foreground
[02:23] <jpt9> which doesn't work, since the Synaptic GUI's long dead.
[02:24] <macbook> tanks ubotu
[02:24] <stefgl> dorothygale: so ctrl-c out of that.  it did not hang, it worked so far... so the digital domain should be fine, there is something muted

[02:31] <RoC_MasterMind__> susan, everything you buy will become obsolete.
[02:31] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> woops

[02:31] <stefgl> dorothygale: so there is no default sound daemon. But never mind. Did you go through the troubleshooting howto?
[02:31] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> not netherape ;) sorry...
[02:31] <nevron> ok i am doing it

[02:31] <susan> RoC_MasterMind__:  but i bought the 939 when it came out and it quickly changed to 940, then to am2!
[02:32] <llib> No I'm beyond that
[02:32] <llib> I have a rpm file
[02:32] <dorothygale> stefgl it's not like sound never worked before. it WAS working, I changed some services around and now no sound
[02:32] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> nevron : once that is done, your best bet is just to click 'Applications->Internet->EtherApe As Root'
[02:32] <llib> and a tar.gz file
[02:32] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> Make sure that if you're not logged in as root already (and you SHOULD NOT BE) you run that...As Root, not just EtherApe

[02:34] <Chris__> heh
[02:35] <overclucker> Chris__: well, 2 gigs swap is a safe guess, and ,
[02:35] <youknowm1> If I have two virtual cores.. and one is running max.. is my entire cpu running max? or just half?
[02:35] <[Meta] > rocky_: Try #beryl or #ubuntu-effects
[02:35] <aTypical> Installing ubuntu is becoming the biggest pain in the ass I have ever faced.
[02:35] <Chris__> ok... 2 gigs of swap spac.e... NOW....the left over space (free space), will i be able to use that in ubuntu and windows to store fileds???
[02:35] <Chris__> or do i have to make a fat32 partition for that?/
[02:35] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> I would assume that formatting the space as FAT32 will allow both to view the space, assuming that's your goal. As far as I know, ubuntu can recognize an NTFS and FAT32 partition...but windows will not recognize the ext3...so your best bet, NTFS or FAT32
[02:35] <overclucker> in /etc/fstab you will need to specify the swP PARTITION
[02:36] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> And when I say space, I mean the empty space
[02:36] <rocky_> how do i get Try #beryl or #ubuntu-effects
[02:36] <[Meta] > How do I change my family's opinion of Linux? xD
[02:36] <mir100> anyone know how i can monitor port (80, or any other ones) through the terminal using snort or something without logging
[02:36] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> the other 2 partitions you can leave be (NTFS and ext3)
[02:36] <[Meta] > "/join #beryl"
[02:36] <Chris__> ok.... so all the leftover space, besides the swap space... i make into fat32?
[02:36] <Chris__> thanks
[02:36] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> [Metal]  Slap them around using a penguin...over and over again
[02:36] <[Meta] > Without quotation marks, rocky_
[02:36] <overclucker> Chris__: WELL, NTFS, I GUESS, WITH NTFS-3G TO ALLOW WRITE IN LINUX
[02:36] <[Meta] > But I might hurt Tux! ;_;
[02:36] <Chris__> hmm
[02:36] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> Chris___ : Yea, that's the only system I believe both understand...
[02:36] <vocx> Chris__, you can use FAT32. The next Ubuntu supposedly comes with good NTFS support so you may use that. Also you can use EXT3 and write from Windows with the aid of a plugin.
[02:36] <rocky_> ok i try it
[02:36] <Chris__> wait
[02:37] <Chris__> ok
[02:37] <overclucker> sorry bout hte caps
[02:37] <Chris__> so i will use fat32 for now
[02:37] <Chris__> thakns
[02:37] <Chris__> :D
[02:37] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> I mean, I think NTFS is understood under the new Kernel (don't quote me though)
[02:37] <[Meta] > In this window, mind rocky_
[02:37] <Chris__> fat32 for now? thakns
[02:37] <Chris__> thanks guys
[02:37] <fyrestrtr> mir100: monitor for what?
[02:37] <Chris__> for the swap space do i have to write anything for Mount:
[02:37] <Chris__> ?
[02:37] <Chris__> Mount Point:
[02:37] <vocx> Chris__, FAT32 does not allow files bigger than 4 GB. Take that into consideration.
[02:37] <mir100> fyrestrtr, just any activity
[02:37] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> [Metal]  - Don't use tux, just any ol' penguin you've got lyin around, boyo
[02:37] <vocx> !enter | Chris__
[02:37] <ubotu> Chris__: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:37] <Chris__> or do i just change it to swap in the listbox
[02:37] <vocx> !enter > Chris__
[02:37] <g0dd3ss> hai what's kjournald for
[02:38] <rocky_> so should I open beryl again see if it work start or
[02:38] <fyrestrtr> mir100: start a firewall, and monitor its logs.
[02:38] <[Meta] > Uh oh. xD I can't recall how to put a link to Home folder on the desktop. I haven't used Ubuntu in a while. =( To my regret.
[02:38] <overclucker> Chris__: well, no you don't have to, but you could if you want
[02:38] <Chris__> sorry, i don't have to what?
[02:38] <mir100> fyrestrtr ok thanks
[02:38] <Chris__> how do i make a swap partition i mean
[02:38] <overclucker> Chris__: if ou have a decent amount of ram, then don't bother
[02:38] <Chris__> do i just  pick "sqap" from use as:
[02:38] <Chris__> swap
[02:39] <overclucker> Chris__: cfdisk
[02:39] <Chris__> i have 2 gigs of ram..so i shouldn't make swap space?
[02:39] <rocky_> its not working with my beryl
[02:39] <vocx> Chris__, yes select swap in the listbox.  Keep your responses in one line please.
[02:39] <Chris__> ok ok ok hold on.. i'm getting confused... i have 2 gigs of ram...so i shouold or shouldn't make swap space
[02:39] <fyrestrtr> Chris__: you should have a swap partition.
[02:39] <Chris__> ok
[02:39] <Chris__> i will
[02:39] <Chris__> thakns
[02:39] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> [Metal]  - Want the quickest way possible? Click on ubuntu's "Places" menu, then simply click-drag-drop the 'Home Folder'  icon to your desktop
[02:39] <h1st0> Chris__: no you should prolly have a 3 gig swap
[02:39] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:39] <[Meta] > Thanks.
[02:39] <nomaS> how can open the ssh port to somebody else connecto to my pc ?
[02:39] <overclucker> and chose type 83 i believe .. .
[02:39] <Chris__> 3 gigs? ok... cool what does swap space even do?
[02:39] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> [Meta] : N/P
[02:40] <vocx> !swap | Chris__
[02:40] <ubotu> Chris__: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[02:40] <[Meta] > I'm trying to make it as user friendly as possible to people who've always used Windows, cApN_rAiNy_WiSh. =p
[02:40] <jrib> !ssh > nomaS (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:40] <overclucker> Chris__: and mkswap /dev/xxx
[02:40] <IndyGunFreak> the installer will whine and cry if you don't have a swap... but with that pC you probably don't actually need one, but id' just put one in to shut it up.
[02:40] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> [Meta] : Okay, then here's what you do...download a windows emulator, load it into linux, run windows, crap, voila!
[02:40] <Chris__> and mkswap /dev/xxx  ......huh???
[02:40] <Chris__> what does that mean??
[02:40] <vocx> overclucker, don't confuse him, he is a new user, he doesn't know what that means, he is just installing.
[02:41] <h1st0> IndyGunFreak: its still necessary.  Mine uses swap and I have 2 gigs of ram.
[02:41] <rocky_> how can I start beryl up
[02:41] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> Chris__:  Your reaction to the 'dribble' is priceless...like a MasterCard commercial...
[02:41] <overclucker> vocx: ohh!, he's installing, now
[02:41] <[Meta] > cApN_rAiNy_WiSh: Problem is, Windows crashed and burned and parents got angry at me coz I'm the nerd of the family. =p
[02:41] <h1st0> IndyGunFreak: it will move programs that you aren't using atm to the swap
[02:41] <fyrestrtr> rocky_: see #ubuntu-effects
[02:41] <overclucker> Chris__: disregard what i said
[02:41] <Chris__> Lastly, I am now making a fat32 out of the rest of the space... which says  "397675" ...so for this can i create a partition for that exact space?
[02:41] <vocx> overclucker, gotta read the whole story first.
[02:41] <IndyGunFreak> h1st0: really?..  iw as thinking it was only used on full diskspace, when all ram was used up
[02:41] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> [Meta] : DOesn't that suck? I'm in the same spot you are, however, I no longer reside within the parents' household...yay, free beer for me and anyone else!
[02:41] <rocky_> ok
[02:41] <IndyGunFreak> regardle3ss, i still recommend it always... but thanks for the clarification
[02:42] <Chris__> like i type that number exactly...or should i round it to 397000
[02:42] <stefg> Chris__: here's a drawing http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39719/ . This is how your partitioning should look in the ideal case
[02:42] <h1st0> Chris__: typical rule of thumb is to double your memory for swap partition ex: 4gigs but once you start getting in to that much ram you really don't need a 4gig swap.
[02:42] <h1st0> IndyGunFreak: Nah unused stuff will move there as well.
[02:42] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> haha, I have a lot of RAM LoL
[02:42] <[Meta] > cApN_rAiNy_WiSh: My mum's computer illiterate and my dad who knows a little about computers is in a mental institution. ^_^
[02:42] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, didn't know that
[02:42] <Dr1> has anyone here clustered Linux servers as file servers (SAMBA, AFP, NFS) and are there any limitations or potential application compatibility issues when doing so?
[02:42] <vocx> Chris__, yes you can use the exact space. Why do you ask so many questions? Be patient.
[02:42] <tanner> does anyone know how to kill an active connection to your machine?
[02:42] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> 8GB DDR2 - PC2-4200
[02:43] <Chris__> sorry...rough day with the computer
[02:43] <Chris__> my grub wasn't loading at all and i had to reformat everything
[02:43] <dxdt> tanner: pull the ethernet cord

[02:48] <h1st0> Chris__: what are you trying to partition it with?
[02:48] <AFigueiredo> Hi everyone... which cd is the right for the core 2 duo's? amd64 or x86?
[02:48] <Chris__> fat32
[02:48] <Chris__> ubuntu
[02:48] <rocky_> could some one Pm to help me better out
[02:48] <Chris__> i'm on the live cd right now
[02:49] <vocx> AFigueiredo, they both work, but most of us would suggest i386

[02:49] <overclucker> Chris__: are you formating it as primary, or logical, and fat32 on on  400gig partition just won't cut it
[02:49] <Gekiretsu> hello. problems with some drivers.....
[02:49] <AFigueiredo> vocx, fyrestrtr, thanks
[02:50] <h1st0> Chris__: what tool are you using to partition it?
[02:50] <Chris__> what do you mean tool?
[02:50] <h1st0> overclucker: sure it will
[02:50] <Chris__> i am using primary
[02:50] <otaimerz> hye
[02:50] <h1st0> Chris__: What program are you using to partition it.
[02:50] <Chris__> the ubuntu installer
[02:50] <Gekiretsu> hello, anyone can help me with some drivers?
[02:50] <vocx> !ask | Gekiretsu
[02:51] <ubotu> Gekiretsu: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:51] <h1st0> Chris__: how many primary partitions do you have on the drive?
[02:51] <Chris__> ewll...50 gb for windows..... then the etx3 is a primary
[02:51] <fyrestrtr> tanner: see here > http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/networktools1.htm
[02:51] <otaimerz> i want to open one website but.. it is open bcoz my ubuntu does not has Java Runtime Enviroment like using in windows
[02:51] <Chris__> and the sqwap is a primary
[02:51] <otaimerz> how i want to open it/?
[02:51] <h1st0> Chris__: the swap shouldn' be.
[02:51] <Chris__> ok, i'll try to fix it
[02:51] <luis> ok, so I got the goggle earth bin file on my desktop, how do I run it?
[02:51] <luis> lol
[02:51] <Gekiretsu> ok, got a new PCI card with USB 2.0 and Firewire connections
[02:51] <overclucker> h1st0: would you use fat32 on a 400gig?
[02:51] <luis> ok, wait, let me look at the google earth page
[02:52] <Gekiretsu> can't find the drivers for the damn thing
[02:52] <h1st0> overclucker: for what he's doing use.
[02:52] <vocx> !java | otaimerz
[02:52] <ubotu> otaimerz: 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
[02:52] <anandanbu> The updates from ubuntu are very slow in my ubuntu 7.04 system but the other downloads are much quicker, what would be the problem
[02:52] <h1st0> Chris__: make the swap extended.  You can only have 4 primary partitions I believe on a drive.
[02:52] <Gekiretsu> it has electricity, if i connect a USB key it lights up, but doesn't read t
[02:52] <dxdt> overclucker: fat32 on 400GB?  Yikes.  I would probably make it ntfs and then make linux read the ntfs if i had to have it as one big partition
[02:53] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> yea, I think you can go into a terminal, otaimerz, and type: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[02:53] <rocky_> i how a hard time with beryl could some one help me trun it on
[02:53] <vocx> anandanbu, somebody said the servers were down. It happens, just be patient. Wanna help, donate money so they have better servers.
[02:53] <Chris__> ok...but the etx3 i make primary
[02:53] <Chris__> right?
[02:53] <Chris__> and how do i make the swap extended?
[02:53] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> beryl should be easy to turn on, rocky_, assuming you already installed it...
[02:53] <overclucker> dxdt: that's what i thought,
[02:53] <rocky_> I did
[02:53] <h1st0> Chris__: / should be primary yes.
[02:53] <rocky_> but it wont trun on
[02:53] <Gekiretsu> ok, got a new PCI card with USB 2.0 and Firewire connections can't find the drivers for the damn thing
[02:53] <anandanbu> vocx: thanks for the info
[02:53] <Gekiretsu> ok, got a new PCI card with USB 2.0 and Firewire connections can't find the drivers for the damn thing
[02:53] <Ltar> I can't boot to CD anymore.. I've never had a problem before, but I found myself unable to (no bootable device detected) when I tried to boot into a live CD to format my new HDD
[02:54] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> If it's already installed, you can hold ALT on your keyboard, press F2 and that should bring up the 'RUN' console. In there, type: beryl-manager and hit enter
[02:54] <Chris__> ok, now how do I make the swap...extended..or whatnot?
[02:54] <rocky_> i had it working this moring and how its not going on
[02:54] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> If you have beryl installed, it will load up
[02:54] <Gekiretsu> ok, got a new PCI card with USB 2.0 and Firewire connections can't find the drivers for the damn thing
[02:54] <h1st0> Chris__: What I would do is the following have "windows / /swap /home and a share of free space"
[02:54] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> rocky_ Unlike windows, if I am NOT mistaken, Beryl must be ran manually everytime u boot, unless you change your config source to automatically run it each time...upon a profile load...
[02:54] <Chris__> I don't know what you just said
[02:54] <h1st0> Chris__: having a seperate /home is nice if you ever have to reinstall all yoru settings and files stay.
[02:54] <Chris__> ok
[02:55] <Chris__> so, what do I do?
[02:55] <vocx> Gekiretsu, it is possible that drivers don't exist. That is sad, but not Linux's fault, but rather the manufacturers' fault.  Do not repeat the question.
[02:55] <pwnt-> hey
[02:55] <h1st0> Chris__: alright clear the partitions youve made.
[02:55] <vocx> !patience > Gekiretsu
[02:55] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:55] <Chris__> all of them except window.s.. of course
[02:55] <h1st0> Chris__: with the exception of your windows drive that you don't want to delete.
[02:55] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> But, I mean, it's as easy as 1 2 3 to load it each time...I prefer the less-dumbed-down linux things because it keeps the system safe and secure...without putting too much emphasis on automation
[02:55] <h1st0> Chris__: yeap
[02:55] <Chris__> yeah
[02:55] <pwnt-> after installing gutsy do i need to re-install the VGA driver again?
[02:55] <rocky_> oh ok but i get a thing saying cant enable desktop effects
[02:55] <h1st0> Chris__: Do you want a seperate /home partittion?
[02:55] <Tech-Mike> anybody help with a "Wnck-Warning ** Unhandled action (nil)" error?
[02:55] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> are you using nvidia?
[02:55] <Chris__> what will  that do for me?
[02:55] <Chris__> should I? is it better?
[02:56] <cubee> Pwnt: what card u have?
[02:56] <rocky_> ya im using the software
[02:56] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> Go to the System menu, then 'Desktop Effects'...when you go in there, you may have to load a propietary driver for nvidia
[02:56] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:56] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> unless you've already done that...
[02:56] <Chris__> basically, i just want about 20gb for ubuntu....some swap space...and then the leftover to be all storage space for windows and ubuntu
[02:56] <Gekiretsu> vocx, i choose Linux, wasn't imposed on me, i am not blaming it.....just wanted to know if there are drivers and i can't find them 'cos i am not good enoughs earching for them or just 'cos i am anewbie...
[02:56] <h1st0> Chris__: All your files and settings are stored in /home/username  All of  the software is in / so if you reinstall / your /home/username partition will still be there with your settings and files.
[02:56] <fyrestrtr> pwnt-: #ubuntu+1
[02:56] <rocky_> I dont think i have it
[02:57] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> If desktop effects are disabled, you are not using propietary nvidia drivers that are dumbed down to handle linuxs' advanced effects
[02:57] <vocx> Gekiretsu, no problemo
[02:57] <pwnt-> cubee: nvidia
[02:57] <Chris__> ohhh... ok...so maybe i should do what you suggested
[02:57] <stefg> !traffic
[02:57] <Chris__> actually... no..
[02:57] <h1st0> Chris__: okay well then if you're only giving 20gigs don't worry bout seperate /home you can always make one later.

[02:57] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> well, if you go into desktop effects, it should auto-get the gx3 or something driver for you
[02:57] <Chris__> yeah i let's do it
[02:57] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> it will ask if you wish to enable or not
[02:57] <Chris__> ok
[02:57] <rocky_> where can i get the propietary driver for nvidia
[02:57] <Chris__> so i won't do it
[02:57] <Chris__> that's fine
[02:57] <h1st0> Chris__: its not hard to make it later.

[02:57] <Chris__> done
[02:58] <Chris__> 16? ok
[02:58] <Chris__> why 16 thoough
[02:58] <vocx> Gekiretsu, just don't be impatient and repeat the same question within seconds. Wait a few minutes before repeating the questions. Take your time to browse the forums also ubuntuforums.org
[02:58] <Chris__> ok. done
[02:58] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> one sec...if it doesn't auto-get it under desktop effects, I need a minute to figure out what to do...
[02:58] <h1st0> Chris__: make sure its marked as bootable and selected to be mounted as / and formated to ext3
[02:58] <h1st0> Chris__: now make /swap 4gig
[02:58] <Chris__> waiot
[02:58] <Gekiretsu> vocx, already browsed the forums, but couldn't find a thing about USB and Firewire cards
[02:58] <Chris__> marked as bootable?
[02:58] <h1st0> Chris__: yes
[02:58] <Chris__> there is no marked as bootable anywhere
[02:59] <h1st0> Chris__: don't worry I think the installer defaults to it.
[02:59] <Chris__> ok
[02:59] <otaimerz> how to i'm check my free drive using ubuntu?
[02:59] <h1st0> Chris__: So now make /swap as 4gigs make sure
[02:59] <Chris__> the swap i make logical..correct
[02:59] <vocx> h1st0, if you are going to walkthrough Chris__ it would be a good idea if you both moved to a private room, so you don't flood this room. Thank you.
[02:59] <h1st0> Chris__: yes
[03:00] <h1st0> vocx: almost done one more step
[03:00] <Chris__> swap is done
[03:00] <Gekiretsu> ok, got a new PCI card with USB 2.0 and Firewire connections can't find the drivers for the damn thing
[03:00] <h1st0> Chris__: Now you can leave the free space and partition and format it after the install.  Its up to you.

[03:01] <vocx> Gekiretsu, you may start by improving your question, providing the model and make. Even pictures of it.
[03:01] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> It should ask for yer pass and then it will ask if you wish to continue (Y for yes)
[03:01] <fyrestrtr> Gekiretsu: find out if your card was detected or not, using dmesg.
[03:01] <Chris__> ok... i want to be able to use this space to store windows and ubuntu files...sohuld i do it now?/
[03:01] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> THen it should install the driver

[03:01] <sksol> hey guys
[03:01] <Chris__> so can't i just do it now?
[03:01] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> Not sure if you will require a restart, but that's about all I know ;)
[03:02] <sksol> how do i connect ubuntu laptop to vista laptop via ethernet cable
[03:02] <h1st0> Chris__: I would partition it as primary partition and format as fat32
[03:02] <RoC_MasterMind__> sksol, crossover cable
[03:02] <Chris__> ok.. i'll do it now, that's fine?
[03:02] <Chris__> thanks

[03:02] <kotau> sksol it is a windows networking tool for linux
[03:03] <sksol> ok, cool
[03:03] <Chris__> I just tried to partition it and it gave me that error... i made it primary...and fat32
[03:03] <Chris__> and the full amount of space (over 400 gb)
[03:03] <rocky_> ok Im back my driver does not need any new one's
[03:03] <h1st0> Chris__: try as logical
[03:03] <fyrestrtr> Gekiretsu: open a terminal and type dmesg
[03:03] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> okay, sweet
[03:03] <Chris__> same error
[03:03] <Chris__> as logical
[03:03] <h1st0> Chris__: Are you changing the start and end of the partition?
[03:04] <Chris__> nope
[03:04] <Chris__> i kept it as it is
[03:04] <rocky_> every time I go to desktop effects is says cant enble
[03:04] <rocky_> what can I do
[03:04] <otaimerz> hye.. how to run exe file in ubuntu/

[03:04] <salvator1> Hi, I'm new to ubuntu, and recently installed beryl from the synaptic package manager, but i'm not sure how to make it look cool like all those videos you see on youtube, can anyone help?
[03:04] <Chris__> it's at "beginning"
[03:04] <h1st0> Chris__: hrm.  well just leave it now and you can always part it later.
[03:04] <IndyGunFreak> rocky_: do you have your video card drivers installed?
[03:04] <overclucker> !wine
[03:04] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[03:04] <dennda> otaimerz: wine... but what exactly do you want to run?
[03:04] <Chris__> yeah,,are you sure>
[03:04] <rocky_> yes
[03:04] <Chris__> I want to be sure i can partition nit later
[03:04] <Gekiretsu> fyrestrtr, done, i got a long list, now what?
[03:04] <Chris__> so i don't have to do this all over again
[03:04] <h1st0> Chris__: it should be marked at begining of free space
[03:04] <rocky_> i had to working today but now its not
[03:04] <fyrestrtr> salvator1: try #ubuntu-effects
[03:04] <Chris__> yeah, but it isn't working...any idea why?
[03:04] <otaimerz> yes dennda.. why.. i can be problem in my ubuntu ?
[03:05] <h1st0> Chris__: No you can definately partition it later.  You could technically even use windows to do it after ubuntu is installe.d
[03:05] <otaimerz> yes dennda.. why.. it can be problem in my ubuntu ?
[03:05] <fyrestrtr> Gekiretsu: post it on the pastebin site
[03:05] <dennda> otaimerz: depends on the application you want to install. what do you want to run=
[03:05] <h1st0> Chris__: I have no idea what your looking at You may want to try gparted after you install ubuntu to get a better error.
[03:05] <Chris__> ok...is it easy to partition in windows?
[03:05] <otaimerz> i want to run microsoft office 2007
[03:05] <Chris__> i think i'll partition it there
[03:05] <otaimerz> can?
[03:05] <Chris__> thanks for your help
[03:05] <luis> yoy can partition from the live boot CD
[03:05] <luis> you*

[03:06] <Chris__> thakns
[03:06] <luis> oh, ? :S
[03:06] <dennda> otaimerz: i don't know if wine can handle that. you may use openoffice.org or try crossoveroffice
[03:06] <Gekiretsu> fyrestrtr, sorry, i MA a newbie....what's the pastebin site?
[03:06] <myconid> pastebin.cm
[03:06] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> rocky_ : Try going to 'System->Administration->Restricted Drivers Manager'
[03:06] <fyrestrtr> Gekiretsu: check the topic :)
[03:06] <dennda> myconid: without having seen the video: compiz fusion
[03:06] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> Look in there and make sure the propietary driver is enabled...
[03:06] <vocx> h1st0, I told you it was far from over. You will need to tell him how to set up /etc/fstab later, so yeah, good luck.
[03:06] <myconid> dennda: hoping for something a bit more specific
[03:06] <luis> also, can anyone tell me what command line to run to install google earth, the one on the google earth site doesn't do aquat
[03:06] <rocky_> I did
[03:06] <luis> lol
[03:06] <dennda> myconid: it is called shiftswitcher
[03:06] <otaimerz> dennda:  so, what software i can run in ubuntu?
[03:06] <FFighter> could someone recommend me a good download accelerator/manager for ubuntu
[03:06] <myconid> dennda: thx.
[03:07] <FFighter> ?
[03:07] <dennda> myconid: you can change between to different types of switching. one looks like the vista thingy
[03:07] <Gekiretsu> thanks fyrestrtr i am doing it now
[03:07] <dennda> otaimerz: that really depends on the situation. check winehq.com and their apps db

[03:07] <salvator1> How is it possible to instal themese for beryl?
[03:07] <rocky_> and it says your hardware does not need any restricted drivers

[03:08] <zein> I have a printing problem. The driver for my LBP-460 printer must runn as root to work. it is suid and if I run "gs --optioins here-- |lbp460" I get the printer to work. foomatic-rip fails when printing via cups. It fails becuse even thought the lbp460 binary is suid it somehow gets run as user lp! I am prtty sure the culrit is foomatic-gswrapper but I can't for the life of me find out why! anyone here versed in the arts of ubuntu printing?
[03:08] <dennda> myconid: you may need the comiz plugins
[03:08] <fyrestrtr> Gekiretsu: post the link
[03:09] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> rocky_ Ahh, okay...well, that's strange, desktop effects not being able to load up should instantly tell the kernel that you need propietary drivers...I'm confused lol
[03:09] <dennda> myconid: but on my gutsy it comes with it, yes
[03:09] <rocky_> Desktop effects could not be enabled
[03:09] <Chris__> THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!
[03:09] <dennda> myconid: you need to configure it with compiz config settings manager. did you install that?
[03:09] <myconid> dennda: I am installing the 'unofficial' plugins
[03:09] <Gekiretsu> fyrestrtr, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39726/

[03:10] <myconid> dennda, sweet! got it thx.
[03:11] <bastid_raZor> is there a channel for ktorrent?
[03:11] <cam_> can someone tell me how to add saybayon linux to my grub boot menu?
[03:11] <scguy318> mnuaimat: check your typing, and make sure you're actually sending a private message to NickServ instead of typing it out for the chan to see
[03:11] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> no...beryl won't work if the desktop effects won't work, it's required for beryl
[03:11] <vocx> cam_, I think the program "update-grub" helps you. Read the manual page.
[03:11] <cApN_rAiNy_WiSh> this is strange, however, because it can't just change over a reboot...
[03:11] <dennda> mnuaimat: you can also do /query nickserv and then use that window
[03:11] <cam_> ok thx
[03:11] <myconid> dennda, It does the 'cover' and 'vista' style alt tab display.. but doesnt makle the windows kinda walk in front of eachother though
[03:11] <FireGamer> Does anyone here support wubi?
[03:12] <dennda> myconid: sorry, i didn't watch the video you posted
[03:12] <myconid> dennda: when they alt-tab, the focus window moves to the left and the unfocused app moves to the right, and then focus changes..
[03:12] <myconid> dennda: as you might expect 'alt-tab' to work with REAL people...
[03:12] <anandanbu> While saving a file in ubuntu 7.04 the hidden directories are also seen in the window, how to correct it
[03:12] <vocx> FireGamer, I believe there is a Wubi subforum in 3rd Party subforum in ubuntuforums.org I personally wouldn't recommend it.

[03:19] <vocx> tetrach, some things, flash among them, do not work in 64 bit environment. So you need to do some things to make it run in a special 32 bit environment. This may be hard to understand if you are a new user. But please follow ubotu's link.

[03:27] <wastrel> nobody in this channel knows a single thing about gusty
[03:28] <vulcanius> there is a separate channel dedicated to gutsy
[03:28] <iuew> how do I update the partition of my hard disk, I am using dual bootupt with ubuntu and vista, now I booted using a live ubuntu cd,
[03:29] <vocx> wastrel, I like your attitude
[03:30] <wastrel> yay
[03:30] <wastrel> i love you too
[03:30] <iuew> anyone ..
[03:30] <bastid_raZor> i am a someone
[03:31] <iuew> how can I extend my ubuntu partition using the live cd
[03:31] <iuew> I already have 5 gig native and 1 gig swap, I need more
[03:31] <wastrel> i think you have to shrink the other partition
[03:32] <iuew> wastrel, I tried it didnt work within ubuntu
[03:32] <iuew> I chopped off 20 gig using VIsta partition manager
[03:32] <iuew> I would like to add this to the ubuntu partition
[03:33] <bastid_raZor> iuew: sounds like you need the chopped off partition to be ext3 instead of ntfs
[03:33] <scguy318> iuew: GPartEd?
[03:33] <prestosd_> sorry ericx
[03:33] <prestosd_> I lagged
[03:33] <tetrach> ok i am lost what exactly am i looking at with i386
[03:33] <wii>  i config the xorg file by doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and put back the resolution higher but it came back how it was,everything is a litlle to big
[03:33] <iuew> bastid_raZor, so I just do it within Ubuntu, I cant add it to my original native 5 gig partition ?
[03:34] <vocx> !download | tetrach
[03:34] <ubotu> tetrach: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[03:34] <Gekiretsu> sorry people, newbie who can't make his USB/Firewire card.......which si RECOGNISED, damn it!
[03:34] <prestosd_> #ubuntu+1
[03:34] <iuew> bastid_raZor, I will bootup the live disk and see if I can partition from there
[03:34] <wastrel> iuew: you can do one of 2 things.  either reformat the empty partition as ext3 and then mount it somewhere under the existing filesystem
[03:35] <tetrach> vocx: download it?
[03:35] <aTypical_> Hi, all.  How do I setup compiz on 7.10?
[03:35] <jdong> wii: hi, one moment please :)
[03:35] <wastrel> iuew: or delete the blank partiton and expand the existing ubuntu partition so to use the empty space
[03:35] <wii>  i config the xorg file by doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and put back the resolution higher but it came back how it was.how do i change it to higher?
[03:35] <ph4mp573r> is there any way to open an encrypted .dmg file on Ubuntu?
[03:35] <wii> jdong: ok
[03:35] <jdong> wii: are you using Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[03:35] <bastid_raZor> aTypical: on 7.10 compiz is already 'setup'
[03:35] <wii> jdong: ku
[03:35] <vocx> Gekiretsu, hardware drivers are handled by the kernel and kernel modules (drivers). So if they are unavailable you are out of luck. Sorry.
[03:35] <bastid_raZor> iuew: yeah, good idea
[03:36] <RoC_MasterMind__> ph4mp573r, what would be the point?  It's got Mac files in it.
[03:36] <Elda> How would I go about copying a directory?  CP doesnt seem to be doing it for me :/
[03:36] <scguy318> wii: edit the monitor refresh rates?
[03:36] <iuew> wastrel: will take your second idea, just waiting for the live boot
[03:36] <RoC_MasterMind__> Elda, cp -r
[03:36] <ph4mp573r> ...the point is to recover my encrypted pictures now that my Mac is dead :P
[03:36] <jdong> wii: run "kdesu kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[03:36] <iuew> *I will
[03:36] <vocx> tetrach, if you want to use flash in your 64 bit distro follow ubotu's links. If you want to reinstall Ubuntu as i386 (and save some problems) download the CD from the links I gave you. What is your issue again?
[03:37] <wii> did that but it is to the limite which is not what it had by default
[03:37] <Gekiretsu> vocx, why does it say that the new hardware was found and works properly butz no device is shown when i plug something?
[03:37] <jdong> wii: and please copy-paste the entire contents of that file into http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[03:37] <Elda> Okey, well that doesn't work :>  Is there any way I can copy a file into my windows partition from this?
[03:37] <ihavenoname>  Hi!
[03:37] <ihavenoname>  Hi
[03:37] <iuew> wastrel: ugg, the disk has fiesty in it, fiesty cant run X on my T60
[03:37] <iuew> crap
[03:37] <ihavenoname>  Hi
[03:37] <jdong> wii: I will have a clearer picture of what is going on if I can see the contents of that file :)
[03:37] <Elda> I have a game that did not install very well, and I have it here... it would take waaaay to long to redl again :/
[03:37] <wii> jdong: the xorg file?.
[03:37] <jdong> wii: that is correct
[03:38] <Elda> I want to copy the installation files to C:\ which would just be media/sda1
[03:38] <Elda> But it says I do not have write permission to that
[03:38] <vocx> Gekiretsu, what do you plug in? It may also need drivers. Use "lsusb" to list your hardware devices connected by USB.
[03:38] <wii> jdong: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39728/
[03:38] <troubled> Pici: heya. you around?
[03:38] <Pici> troubled: yes?
[03:39] <troubled> Pici: howdy :) just thought I would inquire as to how things are running so far
[03:39] <wii> jdong: it sopose to be 1920x1440"not "1024x768"
[03:39] <jdong> wii: can you also paste the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[03:40] <Paddy_EIRE> hey does anyone know of any intuitive way for me to sync up video and audio in an avi file I have ?
[03:40] <Gekiretsu> vocx, it's a PCI connected card, with USB and Firewire connections
[03:40] <Pici> troubled: Its been accumulating data, I havent run into a situation where I've really needed it, but its nice instead of grepping logs.
[03:40] <Gekiretsu> vocx, how do i list those?
[03:40] <ph4mp573r> so, is there any way to open an encrypted dmg file in Ubuntu?
[03:40] <jdong> ph4mp573r: in short, no.

[03:41] <ihavenoname>  hi
[03:41] <vocx> Gekiretsu, yes, so issue "lspci" and "usb" and see what is detected. They have options, so run "man lspci" and "man lsusb" to read the manual pages to know which option you can use to display more info.

[03:41] <aTypical_> Hey, all.  How do I enable to burn effect in 7.10?
[03:41] <ihavenoname>  Ok
[03:41] <jdong> wii: the root cause of your problem is on line 311 of your pasted log, "(WW) NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "1920x1440"; removing."

[03:42] <ihavenoname>  Does Ubuntu support smaller screens than 640x480?
[03:42] <pacohp> hi guys
[03:42] <kst> gn.
[03:42] <Gekiretsu> vocx, i have four USB controllers listed
[03:43] <evil_> I am having problems with my synaptic pad (when cpu is < 50% mouse hangs unresponsive) can anyone point me in the right direction
[03:43] <kotau> ihavenoname yep, you might also try a different window manager, like matchbox or fluxbox, they are made to take up little screen estate
[03:43] <LjL> ihavenoname: no. we'd never be able to follow this channel, with people spamming like you, on screens smaller than 640x480.
[03:43] <Paddy_EIRE> evil_, ubuntuforums ubuntuwiki
[03:43] <pacohp> i wanna know if someone can help me out  u see i'm trying to fix my ubuntu so i can install spades to run a server for simulating  robocop
[03:43] <wii> o.O
[03:44] <Creed> Does ubuntu have support for spanned hardrives (two hardrives spanned to appear as 1 in Windows)?
[03:44] <ihavenoname>  Thanks for answering'
[03:44] <kotau> pacohp dude I want in on that.  is it multiplayer?
[03:44] <jdong> wii: can you run "sudo nvidia-xconfig --ignore-edid"
[03:44] <pacohp>  yes <creed> all u have to do is mount it
[03:44] <wastrel> Creed: you can mount a separate drive on the same filesystem or configure LVM
[03:44] <astro76> !lvm | Creed, yes LVM
[03:45] <ubotu> Creed, yes LVM: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[03:45] <fOrgivme`> I just installed winrar on my ubuntu, but I cant seem to figure out how to archive/compile an .exe file to an .rar file
[03:45] <Paddy_EIRE> hey does anyone know of any intuitive way for me to sync up video and audio in an avi file I have ?
[03:45] <astro76> Creed, or as others have mentioned, you might just mount them to appropriate mount points
[03:45] <Creed> Thanks pacohp wastrel astro76 :) Moving my media server from Windows to Ubuntu-server and just wanted to see if it would be compatible (and yes I know its a horrible idea to have spanned drives).
[03:45] <wii> jdong: invaled
[03:46] <wii> jdong: invalid
[03:46] <jdong> wii: ok then let's do it manually.... :)
[03:46] <wii> o.O
[03:47] <vocx> Gekiretsu, USB controllers is a different thing. The way USB works, it always shows USB controllers. But you still didn't answer what you were plugin in the Card. A simple thumb drive? A camera?
[03:47] <jdong> wii: in xorg.conf, insert a new line between 86 and 87: Option "IgnoreEDID" "true"
[03:47] <pacohp> hey guy i wanna know if u can help me out i'm having problems to configure spades wich is a package for artifical intelligence. my real problem comes when it ask me to have a expat.h file
[03:47] <wii> jdong: paste this: Option "IgnoreEDID" "true"
[03:47] <kst> gn.
[03:47] <jdong> wii: that is correct
[03:48] <arghh2d2> can anyone recomend any good tutorials on running a web sever such as apache or lighttpd?
[03:48] <Gekiretsu> vocx, nope, the problme is otzher
[03:48] <Gekiretsu> vocx, it's a PCI card, with inputs for Firewire and USB
[03:48] <Creed> astro76, LVM seems a little intensive, how would I mount them (standard NTFS mount?), anything special for spanned drives?
[03:49] <dxdt> arghh2d2: sudo aptitude install apache2  then change what you need in /var/www/  that is basically it really.  Then kinda google for what you need on an individual basis.  IF you want php and stuff you'll need to install that.
[03:49] <Gekiretsu> vocx, the card is not reading ANY USB i connect to it
[03:49] <wii> jdong: i paste Option "IgnoreEDID" "true" on line after 86
[03:49] <wii> and save it
[03:49] <Gekiretsu> vocx, i haven't tried any Firewire yet
[03:49] <jdong> wii: yes
[03:49] <jdong> wii: try restarting X and seeing if that works
[03:49] <wii> restart serve x?
[03:49] <wastrel> Creed: seems like you're looking to use your existing spanned drive setup?
[03:49] <wii> ok
[03:50] <arghh2d2> thanks dxdt, i was kinda looking for some knowledge of the inner workings tho.
[03:50] <Creed> wastrel, correct. Two 320GB hardrives spanned into 1 ~600GB one  with Windows XP Pro being hte media server atm. Want to just move the hardrives over to my ubuntu box (server, hides in my closet :)) and be done with it.
[03:50] <wastrel> that's a different matter.
[03:51] <Creed> :( Nothing complicated I hope
[03:52] <clos> hey guys, i'm having a problem with my vnc server, when i look at it in the viewer it looks blurry and messed up
[03:52] <iuew> hmm, I just got a GRUB loading error :(
[03:52] <astro76> Creed, well the simple way is to just mount the two drives to different mount points
[03:52] <clos> i'm using tightvnc as my client
[03:52] <astro76> Creed, if you truely need the 600GB in one directory, then you need LVM
[03:52] <vocx> Gekiretsu, I understand your problem. I do. It's just that if the kernel does not recognize what you connect then you are out of luck. Maybe you need some special module or configuration I know nothing about.
[03:53] <iuew> can I fix a grub loading error 17 using the live cd
[03:53] <Scunizi> arghh2d2, the apache site has great info and tutorials.  Also #ubuntu-server can help.
[03:53] <Gekiretsu> vocx, thanks annyway then....
[03:54] <fourtwentyhorses> I have a question about bash_profile
[03:54] <grjemo> ubotu
[03:54] <jdong> wii: I'm guessing your resolution is correct now? :)
[03:54] <hitomaro> I'm having a problem getting into ubuntu
[03:54] <fourtwentyhorses> where is it located? i seem to have added something to it by accident and can't find it to remove the line
[03:54] <Gekiretsu> vocx, do you know if it's possible to get the drivers for a Canon Printer, LBP 5200?
[03:54] <grjemo> ubotu:i have a question
[03:54] <hitomaro> x-server error
[03:54] <wii> jdong: yes tanks a million :)

[03:55] <jdong> later
[03:55] <Scunizi> hitomaro, but you can get to the terminal prompt?
[03:56] <Creed> astro76, would I be able to mount them in two mount points? They are spanned and from what I've been told (think it only pertains to Windows), the two drives can never be used as seperate drives without losing the data/having the 2nd drive's content unreadable.
[03:56] <hitomaro> I can, but I don't know how to get into ubuntu gui
[03:56] <vocx> Gekiretsu, the best bet would be to connect it and see if it is detected. I think HP, Canon and EPSON support their printer quite well. But I could be wrong, I'm sure there is a wiki on hardware.
[03:56] <vocx> !hardware | Gekiretsu
[03:56] <ubotu> Gekiretsu: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:56] <astro76> Creed, they were spanned using windows? I'm pretty sure Linux can't deal with that, you will have to backup and restore your data
[03:57] <Gekiretsu> vocx, thanks again
[03:57] <Scunizi> hitomaro, type the following into a terminal.  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[03:57] <Creed> astro76, dang :( I dont have any extra hardrives (well, 450GB anyway) to back the contents up.
[03:58] <fourtwentyhorses> wastrel that works thanks, but is it a hidden file because i can't see it in nautilus?
[03:58] <hitomaro> Scunizi, thats it?
[03:58] <Scunizi> fourtwentyhorses, ctrl+h
[03:58] <wastrel> fourtwentyhorses: files that start with a  .  are hidden yes
[03:58] <hitomaro> thanks I'll test that out
[03:58] <Scunizi> hitomaro, that will reconfigure your X which is the gui.. if you have issues that's where you start.
[03:58] <ltl> l
[03:59] <hitomaro> ok
[03:59] <hitomaro> brb
[03:59] <Scunizi> hitomaro, after running through the prompts and it finishes, type... startx
[04:00] <jodde> Hi guys
[04:00] <jodde> Anyone know any MUD ports to connect to?

[04:02] <Gekiretsu> vocx, i checked the hardware webpage, how would a PCI card be noticed as?
[04:02] <CyberMad> how to disable maximize or minimize effect on ubuntu's window ?
[04:03] <CyberMad> i think this will speed up my ubuntu
[04:03] <Pelo> CyberK, ask in #ubuntu-effects
[04:03] <kravlin> Gah. why isn't the Syncmaster 172n on the monitor lists?
[04:03] <Pelo> CyberMad, ^^
[04:03] <wastrel> i think it's in the thing
[04:04] <vocx> Gekiretsu, probably just as PCI. Although I imagine it would help you if you could figure out the model or make and use that information in ubuntuforums.org or any other Linux forum.
[04:04] <wastrel> gconf-editor apps > metacity  somewhere
[04:04] <CyberMad> thanks
[04:04] <wastrel> unless you're using compiz then iono
[04:05] <Gekiretsu> vocx, i have those, but there is no sign for PCI in the hardware section
[04:05] <Pelo> Gekiretsu, you need to find the model of a pci card on your comp ?    in the terminal  lspci
[04:05] <Creed> Can Ubuntu pxe boot be used to install Windows (need to do a RIS/network install for college, don
[04:05] <Creed> t really want to use Windows, above and beyond :)
[04:05] <DagoWop> i know this is a semi-common question and it's all over the forums but no answers anywhere sound with feisty on a gateway mt3807? am i just screwed?
[04:05] <Gekiretsu> no Pelo , what i need is to make a PCI card with USB/Firewire connections to work
[04:06] <Pelo> Creed,  I think you want ##windows
[04:06] <clos> hey anyone used vncserver before?
[04:06] <kravlin> Gah. why isn't the Syncmaster 172n on the monitor lists?
[04:06] <Pelo> Gekiretsu, hold on
[04:06] <Creed> Alright Pelo
[04:07] <ubuntu_Iz> anyone got a second to help me out?
[04:08] <Creed> ubuntu_Iz, ask away :)
[04:08] <ubuntu_Iz> cool
[04:08] <kravlin> Gah. why isn't the Syncmaster 172n on the monitor lists?
[04:08] <Pelo> Gekiretsu, do you have your card model ?
[04:08] <Gekiretsu> yes
[04:08] <Pelo> Gekiretsu, care to share ?
[04:08] <ubuntu_Iz> well, i don't have inet at home anymore, and all i can use is this windows box here...i need to find a way to browse repositorys and save packages
[04:08] <rjune> if I run apt-get install slapd, the package runs through a script.
[04:09] <rjune> I need to re-run that script, so I do apt-get remove slapd, then apt-get install slapd
[04:09] <Gekiretsu> Pelo, it's a "Pearl PE-1511"
[04:09] <rjune> however, now it doeasn't run the script, is there a command for apt that says, really do uninstall everything for this package?
[04:09] <Pelo> ubuntu_Iz, http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[04:09] <ubuntu_Iz> awesome, thanks
[04:09] <Gekiretsu> Pelo, it has 4 USB and 2 Firewire
[04:09] <wastrel> rjune: to re-run it you would do  sudo dpkg-reconfigure slapd
[04:10] <kravlin> Gah. why isn't the Syncmaster 172n on the monitor lists? My screen has been all screwed up since i ran apt-get update.
[04:10] <Creed> wastrel, thanks, I've been wondering that myself :)
[04:10] <aqua-bat> wastrel: is that what you would do with any package??
[04:10] <wastrel> rjune:  and the other answer is,  apt-get remove --purge  to remove config files (otherwise they remain when a package is removed)
[04:10] <Elda> How would I copy a file from my linux partition to the windows partition? Because I keep getting an error that I odnt have authorization to do so...
[04:10] <Elda> *don't
[04:10] <ubuntu_Iz> 6.06 is dapper right?
[04:11] <Wolf23> anyone helps here with gnokii! thanx
[04:11] <rjune> wastrel: thanks
[04:11] <wastrel> aqua-bat: yes,  dpkg-reconfigure  re-runs the post-install config scripts for a package
[04:11] <Pelo> Gekiretsu, open a terminal,   type lspci , is the card listed
[04:12] <aqua-bat> wastrel: gracias mi amigo

[04:12] <Elda> I just cant copy anything to it.
[04:12] <h1st0> Elda: You don't have ntfs write support enabled

[04:13] <vocx> Gekiretsu, oh, by the way, you are talking to Pelo now.
[04:13] <wastrel> rjune: there was a seminar in #ubuntu-classroom, i think it's logged somewhere
[04:14] <kravlin> or if someone knows how to fix the problems i'm having because i can't reinstall the restricted drivers. I'm running Gusty currently.
[04:14] <kb3llm> guys, i want to put a printer on my server to use as a print server (from mac and windows). How would i go about doing that? (please /msg me if possible - its crowded in here)
[04:14] <kb3llm> i already installed cupsys
[04:14] <h1st0> kb3llm: just share the printer
[04:14] <viator> i just upgraded 200 packages
[04:14] <kravlin> and i can't edit monitor settings.
[04:14] <Gekiretsu> sorry vocx
[04:14] <kb3llm> h1st0: its not installed at all yet.. I'm in terminal only (its a server)
[04:14] <DagoWop> official question . . . gateway mt3807 with ubuntu feisty and no sound.  any suggestions?
[04:15] <h1st0> kb3llm: ahh You may want to google sharing printers in linux
[04:15] <picard_pwns_kirk> !gutsy
[04:15] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[04:15] <Gekiretsu> Pelo, nope, it's not listed, i've only listed the four shitty USB 1.1 from Intel
[04:15] <vocx> viator, are you running Gutsy? Remember that it is not stable yet.
[04:15] <hskfjjf> GRUB loading error 17!!! I cant enter ubuntu anymore, I have dual boot, how can I enter ubuntu ?
[04:15] <Elda> Thanks :) That was quite painless
[04:15] <wastrel> there's a link on the wiki for a transcript but it's 404
[04:15] <rjune> kb3llm: macs are easy. set up the printer, they should find it automagically
[04:15] <Pelo> Gekiretsu, don'T get mad but are you sure the card is connected ?
[04:16] <kb3llm> h1st0: i have to install it before i can share it....
[04:16] <kb3llm> rjune: it's not installed on the server yet. thats wwhere i need help
[04:16] <rjune> kb3llm: smb is slightly more difficult, depending on the size of your installation, you might look at gosa
[04:16] <h1st0> !printing | kb3llm
[04:16] <ubotu> kb3llm: 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

[04:16] <h1st0> hskfjjf: yes
[04:16] <vocx> Gekiretsu, and by the way, you cannot use shi**y in here.
[04:16] <Scunizi> hskfjjf, follow the link and follow the instructions for fixing grub.. http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm
[04:16] <h1st0> hskfjjf: Did you just install vista or something?
[04:16] <h1st0> hskfjjf: You need to boot to the live cd and repair grub
[04:17] <h1st0> !grub > hskfjjf
[04:17] <Pelo> Gekiretsu, I'm trying to see if I can find you some help eleswhere
[04:17] <Elda> Wahhh, cant believe I am actually going onto my windows partition to play a game :/
[04:17] <Elda> Or at least trying to install it and copy it back here
[04:17] <hskfjjf> h1st0, yes I have vista, but I want to fix grub so I can enter Ubuntu
[04:18] <Elda> You have to install Vista and then Ubuntu I think to get both :>
[04:18] <DagoWop> the wuestion is asked on the forums lots but has no responses I would really like the sound to work on my laptop gateway mt3807
[04:18] <hskfjjf> Elda: I dont have any files in VIsta, I want my ubuntu back and running, it has all my files in it
[04:18] <DagoWop> the device shows up but does not produce audio
[04:18] <Elda> DagoWop... have you tried turning acpi off to see if a bios is your problem?
[04:18] <Gekiretsu> vocx, ok, never thought this channel was children protected...
[04:18] <Gekiretsu> Pelo, ok, thanks
[04:18] <Pelo> Gekiretsu, I want you to join  ##linux  and ask very politely if they can help you configure your card,  give them the model and what it is and ask for a little help
[04:18] <negrox_> holas
[04:18] <Pelo> and be nice
[04:18] <h1st0> hskfjjf: follow the directions from ubotu pm about repairing grub
[04:18] <negrox_> kisiera haser una pregunta
[04:18] <Creed> Anyone have a quick and easy guide to getting ubuntu to share certain folders (/media/Entertainment) as a SMB share (so that XBMC can stream content from it)?
[04:19] <DagoWop> elda: i'm dual booting xp and ubuntu for the time and the sound works great on xp
[04:19] <vocx> DagoWop, you can subscribe to threads so you never lose them.
[04:19] <negrox_> alguien me puede explicar cual es la diferencia de instalar un linux 64bit y 32 bit
[04:19] <Pelo> !es | negrox_
[04:19] <ubotu> negrox_: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:19] <Elda> DagoWop: I understand that but what I asked was.  Have you tried booting ubuntu with the acpi=off line?
[04:20] <Gekiretsu> ok, i am already there, and already asked, but got no answer.....
[04:20] <DagoWop> elda: no. never thought of it
[04:20] <Elda> Because if your sound is not working, chances are that you may have a blacklisted bios.  And if you do acpi will prevent you from running sound.  In order to remedy this you will have to get a DSDT file
[04:20] <Pelo> Gekiretsu,  ask periodicaly , and be very patient
[04:20] <Elda> This DSDT file will patch your linux install and help with your bios
[04:20] <Elda> brb
[04:20] <kb3llm> ok.. for my printer https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers says that it is detected during installation. But my printer wasn't connected during installation...  It also said use the bjc600 driver, so how do i install that?
[04:20] <Pelo> Gekiretsu,   don'T just ask for help ,  ask a damn question,  you'Re not gonna get help the way you are going
[04:21] <DagoWop> elda: is this a well know thing.  I've searched the internet high and low and never heard of a blacklisted bios
[04:21] <grjemo> I'm getting a TTY error, but neither acpi=force irqpoll or acpi=off irqpoll is working. By the way, I'm fed up with ubotu. Don't make him talk to me.
[04:22] <kb3llm> anyone?
[04:22] <vocx> kb3llm, most probably the bjc600 driver is a kernel module so load it with "sudo modprobe bjc600"  or search it from "lsmod | grep bjc"  If you really do not have the module anywhere in your system you may need to get it from source and compile it yourself, but I doubt that.
[04:22] <Pelo> kb3llm,   menu > system > admin > printer  : add a printer
[04:22] <DagoWop> where is that acpi=XXX modified at?
[04:23] <Pelo> vocx,  bjc600 ic bubble-jet cannon printer model 600
[04:23] <Pelo> is
[04:23] <kb3llm> Pelo: i'm partially without a gui.. its a server. I don't use the GUI that much, and avoid it when possible
[04:23] <Elda>  brb :/  Have to boot into window$ to see if this game runs in there
[04:23] <runemaste64o> How can i make an icon apply to all files of that mimetype without modifying my icon theme?
[04:23] <Elda> Hurray for betas :>
[04:23] <vocx> kb3llm, do not follow questions with "anyone?" it is annoying while we type answers. Just wait patiently.
[04:23] <Hornet--> Wahey, here we go again.  We really need sub-channels here. :\
[04:24] <Elda> Before I go actually
[04:24] <Elda> DagoWop:  Yes it is
[04:24] <Elda> Look for DSDT files
[04:24] <dimond> Up until updating, the restricted drivers manager has worked fine. I have been using Gutsy for about a week, and updated a bunch of stuff today (it had been up to date previously) Now, when I try to restart restricted driver manager I get the message : You need to install the package
[04:24] <dimond>   linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-13-generic
[04:24] <dimond> for this program to work.
[04:24] <Tommy> Hello, does anyone know why once i install bcm43xx-fwcutter ubuntu runs incredible slow?
[04:24] <Pelo> kb3llm,  you can try asking for help on installing a printer in consol in #cups , they probably can talk you through it
[04:24] <kb3llm> vocx: I'm sorry, just thought no one saw it, because the channel is so active. i'll try to wait a while longer before i do that again..
[04:24] <DagoWop> elda: not following ya dsdt files for what blacklisted bios?
[04:24] <Hornet--> Anyone happen to know if / how I can prevent WINE (or specific applications within it) from accessing the internet connection?
[04:25] <dimond> sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-13-generic returns : Package linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-13-generic is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[04:25] <dimond> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or

[04:25] <dimond> E: Package linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-13-generic has no installation candidate
[04:25] <grjemo> dagowop: where its supposed to be, at the end. like the screen on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TTYError

[04:25] <d1n0> anyone know what i can do to get compiz to work with ati radeon hd2400?
[04:25] <fr500> is sdlmame very slow for everyone?
[04:25] <Elda> DagoWop: What I would recommend though is that you try booting with acpi=off to see if that gives you sound first
[04:26] <Elda> If so, you will have to apply a dsdt file in order to be able to use sound when you boot
[04:26] <Creed> When is Gutsy coming out anyway?
[04:26] <vocx> kb3llm, disregard what I've said. Pelo corrected me.
[04:26] <DagoWop> elda: if this works your my hero.  I'm getting better at this linux thing but i'm still crappy at troubleshooting
[04:26] <KurtKraut> Creed, 18th
[04:26] <Creed> Ah thanks KurtKraut
[04:26] <Elda> Hehe np, I am new to linux myself xd

[04:27] <kb3llm> vocx: i dont use the GUI when i dont have to,,,  but even so, i just tried, and canon isn't even listed there
[04:27] <DagoWop> elda: you think gusty will have this problem when it's released?
[04:27] <Creed> pibe86, GIMP should be help, its no Photoshop but it can do the job.
[04:27] <d1n0> Pelo: thx
[04:27] <Pelo> pibe86,  go in menu > applications > add/remove  and search for banner
[04:27] <pibe86> gimp? i did not know
[04:27] <Pelo> kb3llm,  you can try asking for help on installing a printer in consol in #cups , they probably can talk you through it
[04:27] <wastrel> pibe86: inkscape
[04:27] <hskfjjf> Scunizi, when I do grub> setup (hd0) it says cannot mount seected partition
[04:28] <Creed> pibe86, if you have a valid Photoshop CS2 license, I hear the latest version of WINE supports it :)
[04:28] <clusty> is there any way to modify the fan speed for laptops?
[04:28] <hskfjjf> I ws running parition software from windows
[04:28] <clusty> my fan starts working hard at around 45 degrees or so
[04:28] <Pelo> clusty,  look in this guide  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[04:28] <Creed> clusty, then its doing its job :) Best to leave it alone imo heh.
[04:28] <pibe86> and inkscape or gimp else makes gifs?
[04:28] <vocx> kb3llm, search the exact model in ubuntuforums.org that should give you a few ideas.        Wait, what? You are actually ircing from command line, irssi?
[04:28] <Creed> pibe86, both do.
[04:29] <mariocesar_bo> Anyone knows how to disable the sound bell when compiling on Anjuta?

[04:29] <pibe86> thanks for you all
[04:29] <kb3llm> vocx: no, I'm on the mac right now.

[04:31] <neopsyche> Is it ok to install a kde program on gnome?

[04:38] <neopsyche> Tomboy looks more like an organiser program than just sticky notes.. but thanks perhaps that will be better ;-)
[04:38] <rocky_> but it cant enable desktop effects
[04:38] <neopsyche> :-)

[04:41] <Hornet--> Aha, thanks Creed. :)
[04:41] <Creed> Anytime Hornet-- :)
[04:42] <viniciusfs> vocx: sound works fine in other applications. saa7134_alsa is loaded.

[04:43] <hitomaro> I'm having problems with my onboard graphics card, whenever I switch to my nvidia I have some serious problems with ubuntu and it won't load
[04:44] <omegaweopon> Question!  I was dual booting with windows, and I just got flat out tired of windows, now I need to reformat my windows partition to run linux exclusively, so heres the question part, Is there a way to reformat my windows partition, and merge it witht he linux partition without reformating windows?
[04:44] <omegaweopon> *Reformating linux
[04:44] <Creed> Is there a console based Jabber/XMPP client that can connect to Google's Jabber server (Gtalk)?
[04:44] <Pelo> hitomaro, that is because  your system is setup to use the nvidia card and when you switch the drivers are for the nvidia card and not for the onboard one
[04:44] <fuzzyhair> omegaweopon: get gparted
[04:44] <Pelo> hitomaro, you can probably setup to use both cards at the same time
[04:45] <Nebular> Ok, I just installed feisty and I have discovered that the proprietary ati driver no longer supports my radeon 9000 card. I'm looking to get a mediabox going so is there easy instructions to get TV out going on older ati cards?
[04:45] <Creed> omegaweopon, I would use gparted.
[04:45] <Pelo> !dualhead | hitomaro  try this
[04:45] <ubotu> hitomaro  try this: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[04:45] <Nebular> I've done the websearches and I'm utterly confused
[04:45] <hitomaro> hmm
[04:45] <vocx> omegaweopon, yes, just open "gparted" delete the Windows partitions, recreate it with EXT3, and change the /etc/fstab to point correctly to the new partition.
[04:45] <Creed> Nebular, tried ubuntuforums.org?
[04:45] <rocky_> its hard to unstall thing on ubuntu
[04:45] <Pelo> Creed,  search for jabber in synaptic or with apt-cache search  keyword
[04:45] <scipio> Nebular, which driver is that?
[04:46] <Pelo> rocky_, depends on how you installed it , what do you need to remove
[04:46] <rocky_> I dont know
[04:47] <Pelo> rocky_, not knowing what you want to uninstall would make it difficult yes

[04:47] <omegaweopon> Ok, download and running gparted
[04:47] <hitomaro> Pelo, thats not quite it.. you see I'm having problems going into livecd with my nvidia 7600gs, the only way I'm able to use my graphics card with ubuntu is if I first install with my onboard then download automatix and install the driver for nvidia
[04:47] <vocx> viniciusfs, what application are you using? So far my TV card works only with "xawtv". It is ugly but it works. Also, unmute the "line in" in Alsa, but you already know that.
[04:47] <rocky_> i need to install java
[04:47] <hitomaro> thats the only way
[04:47] <rocky_> not to unstall
[04:48] <Goemtmet> How do I install the Sun Java runtime on Gutsy (7.10) ? The only package I find is gij-4.2.. which I think is the GNU Java Runtime
[04:48] <omegaweopon> I love the error code it just gave me!
[04:48] <Goemtmet> ?
[04:48] <GothAce> ??
[04:48] <rocky_> is there a code to install
[04:48] <hitomaro> and on top of that my the maximum resolution I'm able to get through that process is 1024X768
[04:48] <bored> hello
[04:48] <astro76> Goemtmet, sun-java6-jre, sun-java6-plugin for the browser plugin
[04:48] <omegaweopon> Gparted can only be run by root since it is a weapon of mass destruction
[04:48] <viniciusfs> vocx: i just tried with tvtime, going to test with xawtv now
[04:48] <Creed> Goemtmet, tried downloading the .bin from java.com?
[04:48] <Nebular> scipio: 7.1.0-8.34 is what dselect says
[04:48] <Pelo> hitomaro, to install on a system with a nvidia card you should use the alternate install cd and after the nistallation try the restricted drivers first , in the admin menu , if that deosnt, work you then go for the binaries
[04:48] <astro76> Goemtmet, oh you said gutsy, ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:48] <omegaweopon> Er the error code said "Since GParted can be a weapon of mass destruction only root may run it."
[04:49] <Goemtmet> astro76: it doesnt find a package with that name
[04:49] <Pelo> hitomaro, is ubuntu instaled on your comp atm ?
[04:49] <IdleOne> !java | rocky_  Goemtmet
[04:49] <ubotu> rocky_  Goemtmet: 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
[04:49] <Goemtmet> ok thanks
[04:49] <Pelo> omegaweopon,   type gksu gparted
[04:49] <vocx> hitomaro, install with your on board, but don't use Automatix. Use the other restricted drivers methods. It should work. What's the onboard card?
[04:49] <hitomaro> Pelo, I've tried the alternate cd multiple times, with this videocard it will not load at all without prior setting it up with the onboard
[04:49] <rocky_> I cant find anything to install it on the site
[04:50] <Creed> !torrent | Creed
[04:50] <scipio> Nebular, got that driver from repos?
[04:50] <omegaweopon> pelo: In terminal?
[04:50] <IdleOne> rocky_: read the instructions. dont just look for a download link.
[04:50] <Nebular> repos?
[04:50] <vocx> omegaweopon, as you see (weapon of mass destruction) Linux coders have a sense of humor.
[04:50] <omegaweopon> Awesome, thanks you guys
[04:50] <vocx> !repo | Nebular
[04:50] <ubotu> Nebular: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[04:50] <rocky_> ok
[04:51] <Pelo> hitomaro,   ok so it is insatlled ?  change back to the nvidia card and boot the recovery mode,   type   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  when asked fo the driver ( card) select VESA  that will let you use your nvidia card while you  get the correct drivers
[04:51] <hitomaro> I tried the restricted driver just recently and it just messed up everything, now I'm not able to log with onboard nor the videocard, i did the xserver reconfigure code but it still does not work
[04:51] <rocky_> how can I load up konsole and type
[04:51] <Pelo> omegaweopon,   menu > apps > access> terminal
[04:51] <hitomaro> with I'm doing right now is reinstalling ubuntu with live cd on onboard
[04:51] <hitomaro> what*
[04:51] <Pelo> omegaweopon, or you can access gparted from the admin menu
[04:51] <dystopianray> rocky_: or press alt+f2 and type 'konsole'
[04:51] <hitomaro> not with
[04:51] <hgjjjf> what program can i use to keep even the 13375 from finding deleted data?
[04:52] <Pelo> hitomaro, once you have done that   do what I just said
[04:52] <vocx> hitomaro, no need to correct your spelling in such a busy channel.Most of the time we will understand.
[04:52] <Nebular> yes I got the driver from the default repos in the alternate install cd for kubuntu
[04:52] <rocky_> ok i try that
[04:52] <dystopianray> hgjjjf: shred
[04:52] <IdleOne> hgjjjf: what is 13375?
[04:52] <hgjjjf> IdleOne,  leets
[04:52] <omegaweopon> I know how to get into terminal, I was just wondering if I had to type it in terminal
[04:52] <omegaweopon> which I did
[04:52] <IdleOne> oh thats cool irc type.
[04:52] <IdleOne> use english makes you look smarter :)
[04:53] <Pelo> !1337
[04:53] <ubotu> 1337 i5 nigh-inc0mpr3h3n5ib13 70 u5 n00bs, 4nd n0b0dy c4r35 if UR 4 1337 h4x0r. Giv3 i7 4 r357.
[04:53] <rocky_> it cant find a file like that
[04:53] <IdleOne> rocky_: try typing terminal
[04:53] <hitomaro> Pelo, suppose I do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" how do I save and return to the gui without restarting?
[04:53] <omegaweopon> ubotu officially rocks at that statement
[04:54] <grjemo> I was getting a tty error, but neither of the acpi thins worked. what do i do?
[04:54] <Pelo> rocky_, for jave ?  enable backport and multiverse repos,  menu > system > admin > software sources, check all the boxes on the first tab and the backport one on the third tab
[04:54] <gnychis> so... i've followed the guide to build the kernel manually and its been compiling for like 5 hours now, thats crazy
[04:54] <hgjjjf> dystopianray, so what is shred and how does it work?
[04:54] <Pelo> hitomaro, it will save automatical and you just type start x
[04:54] <vmlinuz`> How to change splash screen from gnome?
[04:54] <Pelo> hitomaro,  but you will need to ahve set your bios to use the nvidia card first
[04:54] <dystopianray> hgjjjf: it deletes files so that they are unrecoverable, read the man page
[04:55] <omegaweopon> So I'm in Gparted, now how would I go about merging the partitions?
[04:55] <Pelo> !theme | vmlinuz` check in there

[04:55] <slavi1> grjemo: have you tried the alternate cd or gutsy tribe 5?
[04:55] <vocx> !usplash | vmlinuz`
[04:55] <ubotu> vmlinuz`: 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
[04:55] <grjemo> no.
[04:55] <broken> Question, I am trying to install a .deb package and its using the package manager, what happened was that one package it was install "sun-java-bin" took a very long time to install so I closed and tried again it said something that I have to close the current package manager, so I just rebooted and now it says the same thing again.
[04:55] <hgjjjf> dystopianray,  the data is alrdy deleted
[04:55] <grjemo> slavi1: nope, how would that help?
[04:55] <Pelo> omegaweopon, merging ? not sure , delete one , resize the other
[04:55] <slavi1> grjemo: also, if you are on a laptop and have a removable floppy drive, try taking it out or putting a floppy in
[04:55] <slavi1> grjemo: no idea, but worth a shot
[04:56] <MeRodent> broken, are you updating files? That runs a package manager.
[04:56] <omegaweopon> Yes! now would that destroy my data in linux?
[04:56] <broken> MeRodent: I am not.
[04:56] <hammer123> i need a software similiar to dvdflick which can take avi file, convert it and burn it to dvd file...is there one for ubuntu?
[04:56] <hitomaro> Pelo, well I'm 94% complete re-installing, keeping my fingers crossed that it works because I've tried that very thing a couple of months ago then I gave up and started using windows
[04:56] <Pelo> omegaweopon,  btw you can'T do that on mounted partiton so if you want to do this on your / partiton you'll need to do it from the live cd
[04:56] <vocx> omegaweopon, you cannot change the partitions if they are mounted. This process is better accomplished on a Live CD.
[04:56] <dystopianray> hgjjjf: hrrm, i'm not sure what you can do then, other than wiping the whole drive
[04:56] <Nebular> ok here's a better question, just found another old video card, the GeForce 4 MX. is there TV support out of the box for that one in feisty?
[04:56] <slavi1> btw, anyone know if it's possible to have load balancing on 2 or more ethernet cards?
[04:56] <Pelo> hitomaro, next time  start with the alternate install cd , not with the live cd
[04:56] <broken> MeRodent: I just triedt o open the package manager from the System menu and it says E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[04:56] <broken> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[04:57] <hitomaro> Pelo, I have the same result if not worse with the alternate cd
[04:57] <hgjjjf> dystopianray,  can u join me in room ###WWED i will explain more there
[04:57] <omegaweopon> Well thats my problem, the live cd wont load the partition manager and all my other CD-Rs are busted
[04:57] <MeRodent> broken, so did you try running the command from a terminal?
[04:57] <grjemo> slavi1:Im on a desktop
[04:57] <hitomaro> Pelo, brb
[04:57] <vmlinuz`> I don't realy want to create my own image as a splash. I want to choose from a list. because sadly i was in KDE before. and it had a splash manager. then i went into it and choose some random pic of kubuntu. and now every single time i boot or startup. the loading screen before my Login window would be "Kubuntu loading" isnt there a similir list to choose here in gnome?
[04:57] <slavi1> grjemo: disconnect/disable the floppy drive
[04:57] <hgjjjf> ok dystopianray  hows bout room 1245
[04:58] <broken> MeRodent: its going yea.
[04:58] <slavi1> grjemo: did you see the wiki page on this?
[04:58] <broken> MeRodent: seems that fixed it. shall I try installing the deb packages again?
[04:58] <omegaweopon> Thanks for all the assistance guys I think I found a way to rectify the situation.  I appreciate the help
[04:58] <slavi1> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TTYError?highlight=%28tty%29
[04:58] <rocky_> ok im doing it again
[04:58] <grjemo> slavi1:yes i did
[04:58] <hammer123> guys..what software u use to convert and burn avi to dvd?
[04:58] <grjemo> slavi1:im using a cd
[04:59] <Pelo> vmlinuz`,  in those links are instructions on how to change every theme thing in ubuntu , just do a bit of reading, it,s in there
[04:59] <MeRodent> broken, I'd try again. Deb packages should work fine with ubuntu.
[04:59] <slavi1> grjemo: oh, ok ... which cd? the livecd or the alternate install cd?
[04:59] <Pelo> hammer123,  devede
[04:59] <grjemo> slavi1: the livecd
[04:59] <hammer123> thanks...i will check it out
[04:59] <vocx> vmlinuz`, maybe it is a trivial change if you search enough in the tutorials and tips in the forums.
[04:59] <Pelo> hammer123, it is in the repos but there is a very latest on the maker'S site that lets you make simple menues
[05:00] <slavi1> grjemo: I would suggest the following 3 things: 1. disabled/disconnect the floppy drive or put in a floppy, 2. use alternate cd, 3.make a gutsy cd and try it, 4. try the gutsy alternate cd
[05:00] <broken> MeRodent: holy crap its not letting me remove it.
[05:00] <broken> MeRodent: I am telling it to remove and it works for a bit then pops up wiht an error.
[05:01] <broken> This is all it says: E: sun-java6-bin: Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
[05:01] <hammer123> seems interesting software...it also mention that current mplayer in fiesty is buggy and will produce noisy sound when use with devede..it advise to use the previous version
[05:02] <Pelo> hammer123,  you can dl the pacakge at the bottom of the page,simple enough
[05:02] <MeRodent> vmlinuz`, Install gnome-splashscreen-manager. Start it by selecting System  Preferences  Splash Screen.
[05:02] <hammer123> pelo, which one, got 3 options...
[05:02] <vocx> hammer123, if you think there is a bug, check Launchpad for known bugs in the package, hopefully the new version in Gutsy will solve them.
[05:03] <Pelo> hammer123,  the devede 3.2 pacakge and hold on
[05:03] <hammer123> vocx, i don't know if there is a bug, just that on devede page says that
[05:03] <MeRodent> broken, what error?  I'll try help but no garantees.
[05:03] <hammer123> i already installed mplayer
[05:03] <Pelo> hammer123,  vocx  the bug is with mencoder
[05:03] <broken> MeRodent: fixed it by upgrading.
[05:03] <hammer123> but no mencoder
[05:03] <superkuh> What environmental variables are set by the gnome2 nautilus file manager during file selections and dragging and dropping onto other objects, by cursor? I have expanded upon the question (3 short paragraphs) here: http://69.180.166.50/help_please
[05:03] <tonsofpcs> Feisty Fawn, ATI Radeon X1400 [mobile] , how can I get my video to go to the S- out after boot?  I've done it once before, but I forget how.
[05:03] <broken> Aparrrently it needed java the jre package before the bin
[05:04] <dystopianray> tonsofpcs: can't the fglrx control panel software do that?
[05:04] <MeRodent> broken, that's why I take so long to answer. I find I fix half my problems by thinking about them after asking questions too. :P
[05:04] <Pelo> hammer123,  the first two packages is what you need
[05:04] <tonsofpcs> dystopianray: idk
[05:04] <broken> I am intrested though, it shows I have 1172 packages installed, thats rather fat, is there any way to make it slimmer?
[05:04] <rocky_> i think its downloading java now
[05:04] <broken> MeRodent: whats up ask and I'll see if i can help :p
[05:04] <hammer123> thanks Pelo
[05:04] <vocx> Pelo, isn't mencoder installed with mplayer? Are they independent?
[05:04] <Sajes> Does anybody by chance know how to burn a .img to a floppy?
[05:04] <tonsofpcs> dystopianray: i don't know what that is
[05:04] <p> Where can I find those amazing Screen and Graphics Preferences on Gutsy?
[05:04] <tonsofpcs> but fglrxinfo exists, tells me what my card is...
[05:05] <Pelo> vocx,  not sure
[05:05] <hitomaro> Pelo, well I restarted my computer so whats the first thing I should do to presetup my videocard on ubuntu?
[05:05] <MeRodent> broken, at the moment I'm happy with ubuntu.  Only would preffer E-UAE was better than WinUAE.
[05:05] <rocky_> when im downloading im in a black sreen right
[05:05] <dystopianray> tonsofpcs: ATI's drivers should have a control panel of some sort with them
[05:05] <vmlinuz`> MeRodent: your the man, thanks :)
[05:05] <hammer123> Pelo, which i should install first...devede or the mplayer/mencoder?
[05:06] <Pelo> hitomaro, change the bios for the nvidia card,  boot the recovery mode  then type   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   and when asked select the VESA card/driver
[05:06] <Pelo> hammer123, doesn't matter
[05:06] <hammer123> k
[05:06] <MeRodent> vmlinuz`, actually only read one of the links from ubotu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[05:06] <hitomaro> VESA card/driver?
[05:06] <Pelo> hammer123, those aren'T regular install files if you need help let me know
[05:06] <Pelo> hitomaro, you'll see when you get there
[05:07] <EviL_SmUrF> What the heck does this mean when gxine gives you this: video_out_xv: No adaptors found. You can improve performance by installing an X11 driver that supports the Xv protocol extension
[05:07] <hammer123> ok..but i already installed mplayer...should i remove it and install the one i downloaded?
[05:07] <hitomaro> Pelo, just to let you know I've encountered numerous problems, is that the safest way?
[05:07] <j0hn> hey
[05:07] <hammer123> hey

[05:07] <Pelo> EviL_SmUrF,  open gxine,  check in the prefs  look in the video section and select the x11 one
[05:08] <owen1> is there any podcatcher and ipod sync in one app?

[05:08] <Pelo> hitomaro, it is safe enough

[05:08] <hitomaro> ok, I'll take your word for it brb
[05:08] <dystopianray> owen1: amarok maybe?
[05:08] <pibe86> hello, does smf have irc channel?
[05:08] <vocx> Pelo, frankly I never gave a chance to mplayer, so I just use VLC. Maybe the X11 was the needed trick.
[05:08] <h1st0> !gutsy > p
[05:08] <owen1> dystopianray: thanks, i'll try it!
[05:08] <p> h1st0, no! I want to test those graphic screen and graphic configurator in ubuntu 7.1

[05:08] <Pelo> pibe86, try #smf and let us know
[05:08] <h1st0> p: read the pm from ubotu
[05:08] <afaik2> is it possible for ubuntu to ruin my laptop?
[05:08] <pibe86> http://www.simplemachines.org
[05:08] <dystopianray> owen1: it doesn't exactly 'sync' but it can copy music and podcasts to an ipod
[05:09] <hammer123> which one is better.fiesty or gutsy?
[05:09] <pibe86> smf is http://www.simplemachines.org
[05:09] <Pelo> vocx, it't not realy about mplayer,   it's about mencoder ,  devede uses it to convert to dvd format
[05:09] <afaik2> since I installed it, it has started acting up...
[05:09] <dystopianray> afaik2: yes, indirectly
[05:09] <MeRodent> afaik2, define ruin!
[05:09] <owen1> dystopianray: what about deleting old contect?
[05:09] <hammer123> afaik2, i installed ubuntu on my laptop too...nothing wrong
[05:09] <afaik2> and now when ever my stsem boots, I get a warning that my hard disk may fail
[05:09] <Pelo> hammer123,  right now futsy is in beta , stick t fiesty
[05:09] <vocx> Pelo, I meant to just watch videos, not using them with devede.
[05:09] <dystopianray> owen1: yes it can do that
[05:09] <afaik2> I removed ubunt and went back to vista, but the error still comes up pre-boot

[05:10] <EviL_SmUrF> Pelo: I'm afraid I'm lost. I dont know where to go
[05:10] <dystopianray> afaik2: what error?
[05:10] <h1st0> afaik2: maybe its the laptop complaining about its diagnostic partition not being there anymore.
[05:10] <EviL_SmUrF> Can you be more specific? :)
[05:10] <owen1> dystopianray: can gtkpod do it as well?
[05:10] <Pelo> j0hn,  gedit , or nvu
[05:10] <Wolf23> anyone help me with gnokii?
[05:10] <h1st0> afaik2: what is the exact error you are getting.
[05:10] <hammer123> afaik2: maybe your harddisk is failing...
[05:10] <vocx> hammer123, Feisty is the current version, Gutsy is the future version. How do you want to compare them? Just like cars. This version is newer is it better?
[05:10] <h1st0> !better > hammer123
[05:10] <dystopianray> owen1: probably, I don't know if gtkpod supports podcasts though
[05:10] <afaik2> dystopianray, it just warns me that I should backup data on my hard disk because a failure may be immenent
[05:10] <j0hn> Pelo, i've used gPHPedit, is that similar to gedit?
[05:10] <d4rkmonkey> !better > d4rkmonkey
[05:10] <hammer123> oooh....i see...so is gutsy the one called version 8?
[05:10] <d4rkmonkey> O_O
[05:10] <Pelo> EviL_SmUrF,  open gxine ,  right click on the window,  select preferences
[05:10] <dystopianray> afaik2: ok sounds like the hdd SMART info is reporting failure
[05:11] <h1st0> afaik2: well thats something from the bios then not the os's
[05:11] <d4rkmonkey> hammer123 no, gutsy is 7.10
[05:11] <h1st0> afaik2: if its coming up pre boot.

[05:11] <vocx> !ssh > MitchM_
[05:11] <h1st0> !ssh > MitchM_
[05:11] <d4rkmonkey> hammer123 the version name is pretty much a date, it comes out October of 2007 (a week or too I think)
[05:11] <afaik2> it's a BRAND new laptop
[05:11] <h1st0> :(
[05:11] <d4rkmonkey> !ssh > MitchM_
[05:11] <d4rkmonkey> I just wanted to feel accepted...
[05:11] <h1st0> afaik2: it could be that the DIAGNOSTIC partition is gone now and its just complaining about that.
[05:11] <Scunizi> ok.. where do I find the "root" trash folder?.. I've looked in "file system" after exposing hidden files and don't see it.
[05:12] <Pelo> EviL_SmUrF, from there select video tab and put the driver to use on auto , that should take care of it
[05:12] <dystopianray> afaik2: it's not uncommon for drives to fail soon after purchase, get it replaced under warranty
[05:12] <hammer123> so when it comes out, do we have to reinstall, or we can just like upgrade from feisty...like apt-get upgrade??
[05:12] <h1st0> afaik2: who knows boot ubuntu live cd and fsck -y /dev/hda
[05:12] <tonsofpcs> dystopianray: i don't know how to get into the driver controls
[05:12] <h1st0> afaik2: will check your drive
[05:12] <dystopianray> tonsofpcs: neither do I
[05:12] <h1st0> !gutsy > hammer123
[05:12] <h1st0> hammer123: please for the love of christ read the message from ubotu
[05:12] <MitchM_> thanks :)
[05:12] <afaik2> h1st0... oh.. that doesnt solve it... I already reinstalled ubuntu again and reran fsck a few times
[05:13] <h1st0> Scunizi: /root/
[05:13] <d4rkmonkey> hammer123 upgrade is something on the lines of update-manager -d
[05:13] <hammer123> yes i read it...gutsy is the codename for 7.10 which will be released very soon
[05:13] <d4rkmonkey> hammer123 no need to reinstall
[05:13] <afaik2> sometimes it finds and fixes errors, sometimes it doesnt
[05:13] <Scunizi> h1st0, I don't see it..
[05:13] <afaik2> but the pre-boot error still comes
[05:13] <h1st0> Scunizi: /root/.Trash
[05:13] <vocx> hammer123, yes we can upgrade, a lot of users have been upgrading since 4.10. It will download a lot of upgraded packages though, so expect 600 MB of downloads. So it is up to you to upgrade or do a clean install.
[05:13] <MeRodent> hammer123, you can upgrade or install new.
[05:13] <h1st0> Scunizi: why are you logging in gui as root anyways?
[05:14] <hammer123> 600mb...wow that is a lot of bwidth
[05:14] <h1st0> hammer123: yeah and its discussion is in #ubuntu+1 if you would read a lil further
[05:14] <tonsofpcs> dystopianray: is there a way to change the X config with X running and have it rehash without killing anything?
[05:14] <Scunizi> h1st0, I'm not.. just did a ctrl+h to expose hidden files.. Trying to find something
[05:14] <dystopianray> tonsofpcs: no
[05:14] <owen1> dystopianray: i googled for gPodder and it seems to do podcatch+sync
[05:14] <d4rkmonkey> hammer123 not really, I've downloaded like 10 gigs of stuff last month, and 600 MB is around the same as the download for the .iso of the CD
[05:14] <h1st0> Scunizi: well you had to log in as root in gui to delete something and have it go in .Trash
[05:14] <h1st0> Scunizi: thats a gnome thing.
[05:14] <dystopianray> owen1: I don't know anything about gpodder
[05:14] <Pelo> EviL_SmUrF,  forget everyting I just said,  I was cheking in xine , not in gxine , sorry
[05:15] <marin> may me join in this?
[05:15] <Scunizi> h1st0, I was at terminal and using sudo to delete my old home directory after moving it to another drive.. there's something there I want to recover.
[05:15] <hammer123> so the 600mb will actually replace some of the older files...not much incresing the used up space of ubuntu installtion?
[05:15] <MeRodent> marin, fire away.
[05:15] <EviL_SmUrF> Pelo: There's no video tab :(   I'm using gxine that I added through add/remove in applications. Under the video toolbar, there's settings and also Configure - Deinterlace, Video post-processing. If you look here I uploaded a screenshot of what I see under settings, deinterlace, and post-processing: http://shsu.eggycrew.com/jpg/settings.png
[05:15] <h1st0> Scunizi: if you were in terminal its gone there is no trash
[05:16] <Pelo> EviL_SmUrF,  I just installed it and I can'T find where to solve this, sorry
[05:16] <Scunizi> h1st0, damxxxx... I was hoping.. ok.. it's done.  I'll have to look for my backups
[05:16] <h1st0> Scunizi: its always good idea to have /home on seperate partition.
[05:16] <hitomaro> Sorry Pelo, but that method does not work at all, I cant even get to the terminal
[05:16] <vocx> hammer123, exactly. All your packages actually go to the "cache", which is in /var/apt/cache or something like that. Which holds downloaded debs that can be cleaned whenever you feel like it.
[05:16] <Scunizi> h1st0, that's why I moved it.
[05:16] <EviL_SmUrF> i dont even mind it not being solved cause it plays videos fine, i just want to know what the heck it means
[05:16] <EviL_SmUrF> lol
[05:16] <h1st0> Scunizi: gotcha
[05:16] <afaik2> well, it's no matter... I think what the other guy said is right... probably missing diagnostic tools the bios expects to be there
[05:17] <Pelo> hitomaro, do you get the grub boot menu ?
[05:17] <afaik2> one thing I'd rather fix is the damn suspend
[05:17] <hitomaro> yes
[05:17] <afaik2> my laptop can suspend, but it doesnt come out of hibernation
[05:17] <Pelo> hitomaro, and you can't boot the recovery mode ?
[05:17] <Flats> Hello I need help getting my verizon evdo card working(USB).  I read thru the forums and there is 1 spot I am stuck at.  I did the cat /proc/bus/usb/device devices then inserted the card and found the vendor and product.  However after I run the modprobe it says a ttyACM0 device should show up and it isn't
[05:17] <h1st0> afaik2: What version of ubuntu are you running?
[05:17] <hammer123> ok...so atm, which folders i can actually clear...eg /tmp, /var/apt/cache...what else? or is there a diskcleanup prg?
[05:17] <dystopianray> afaik2: it's most likely your drive reporting failure via SMART
[05:17] <hitomaro> can't boot in both modes
[05:17] <hitomaro> with my video card
[05:17] <afaik2> so, I have to either shutdown or let it get all nice and hot and drain the battery when it is my backpack
[05:17] <afaik2> I'd rather suspend
[05:17] <h1st0> afaik2: What version of ubuntu are you running?
[05:17] <afaik2> the forced fscks drive me nuts
[05:18] <afaik2> Fiesty Fawn
[05:18] <MeRodent> afaik2, I have to agree with dystopianray it sounds like a SMART drive failure which means get it replaced under warranty.
[05:18] <h1st0> hammer123: yeah you can clear those
[05:18] <h1st0> hammer123: sudo apt-get autoclean
[05:18] <h1st0> hammer123: will clear out most of /var/apt/cache
[05:18] <Pelo> hitomaro, the only think I can recommend is that hyou install from the alternate install cd with the onboard card disabled
[05:18] <hammer123> autoclean is a program?
[05:18] <h1st0> afaik2: Search for your laptop model on the forums.
[05:18] <Pelo> hitomaro,  maybe someone else can recommend a better method but that is all I have
[05:18] <Pelo> hammer123,  are you short on  hdd space ?
[05:19] <marin> i dont understan?????????
[05:19] <hammer123> i have only 10gb allocated for ubuntu
[05:19] <vocx> hammer123, read the manual page for "apt-get" so you know how to clean the cache. And don't mess with Linux filesystem. Don't go deleting random files if you feel like it.
[05:19] <hitomaro> Pelo, I've tried that and IndyGunFreak and I were trying to get that to work during the summer, that does not work at all unfortunately
[05:19] <h1st0> hammer123: no its not a program just an option for apt to clean out /var/apt/cache
[05:19] <dystopianray> marin: what don't you understand?
[05:19] <Pelo> marin, you donT' undertand what ?
[05:19] <Pelo> hitomaro,  then try againg when gutsy comes out , that's all I can offer
[05:19] <MeRodent> marin, we have problems with mindreading here so you'll need to explain the problem.
[05:20] <Flats> ne1 familiar with the modprobe usbserial vendor=xxx product=xxx  statement?

[05:22] <org_> Ok, so i did what it says in the tutorials of changing the splash screen.. and I've erased the file.so of the kubuntu also, and changed my splash to #1 which was ubuntu.so splash. I rebooted. and It's still popping "Kubuntu" Splash screen for me!
[05:22] <MeRodent> robj232323_,  it's at ~/Desktop/
[05:22] <h1st0> robj232323_: 64bit or 32bit?

[05:22] <MeRodent> robj232323_, and the case is important.

[05:23] <h1st0> p: probably use wine and install the windows version.  I would search the forums though many have done it.
[05:23] <h1st0> hitomaro: what kind of video card?
[05:23] <Pelo> j0hn, remind me what that was ?
[05:24] <vocx> !away > nomaS

[05:24] <dystopianray> robj232323_: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[05:24] <Nutubuntu> Sorry to have to ask about this - but I need to have Internet Explorer available. Do I simply apt-get install wine, or is there more to it than just that?
[05:24] <p> h1st0, cool. But, can I use lib32?
[05:24] <marin> maksudxx
[05:24] <Pelo> j0hn,  gedit is in the accessories menu, it's the default text editor for gnome
[05:24] <hitomaro> nvidia 7600gs, I'm having problems with ubuntu recognizing it since my onboard is giving it a lot of errors, the only way I've managed to use my videocard with ubuntu was through automatix
[05:24] <esoterik> i had the same issue, it was a bad mbr on the disk, had to format it with lilo instead of grub using the alternate live cd
[05:24] <h1st0> hitomaro: System > Administration > Restricted Drivers Manager  will install your video card drivers no need for automatix.
[05:24] <dystopianray> Nutubuntu: there is much more too it than that, you can't just install IE in wine
[05:24] <Pelo> marin,   type   /join #ubuntu-id
[05:24] <j0hn> Pelo, ooh, i thought that name sounded familiar
[05:24] <Scunizi> Nutubuntu, do you need it to access a site that's available only to ie?

[05:25] <fachry> aq bingungggggggggg
[05:25] <h1st0> p: Just look on the forums many have done it and the way I recomended may not be the best.
[05:25] <omegaweopon> Alternate live CD?
[05:25] <h1st0> p: www.ubuntuforums.org
[05:25] <hitomaro> h1st0, I just tried that, I couldn't get my computer to boot after that on both onboard and videocard.

[05:26] <Scunizi> Nutubuntu, sometimes you can use "ie4linux".  google it.. Otherwise the other way is to install winXX in a VM.  That's what I had to do.. running win2kpro in VMware server.

[05:26] <org_> I got a major problem, I fixed my xorg.conf really good. but every single time I reboot Something weird happens. (I got into a login screen which is blinking with an error in top of it) then it goes into a full blank screen and after a sec a window pops that says "ubuntu is now running in low graphics mode" options are, Configure | Cancel | Continue... If i continue the login screen back again and then it will go to that window another time, the only way to go
[05:26] <org_>  to X server is to configure then pick "nvidia" and after that im in an X with bad resulotion. and not really configured well. even i can't run games with that xorg.conf, then i change it once again "And another time same thing happen" help pls.

[05:27] <Scunizi> Nutubuntu, are they work sites?
[05:27] <MeRodent> who looks after ubotu? Can we get the join command appended to the channels for each language?

[05:28] <Nutubuntu> Scunizi, dystopianray - basically I need to be able to hit one IE-only site, in a single session at a time -- everything else I do, I can do in firefox
[05:28] <Flats> Is there a way to tell after you run modprobe usbserial vendor=XXX product=XXX what your evice is called in the /dev folder?
[05:28] <dystopianray> Nutubuntu: have you tried changing your useragent?
[05:28] <vocx> j0hn, there is a master IDE thread in ubuntuforums.org in the programming talk section. Anjuta, Code::blocks, Geany, Scite, IDLE, SPE, Eclipse, Netbeans, Notepad++ in wine, a lot...
[05:28] <h1st0> Nutubuntu: you can change your useragent or even install ie with wine
[05:28] <esoterik> nut did you try using a proxy?
[05:29] <dystopianray> Flats: dmesg maybe
[05:29] <Scunizi> Nutubuntu, that's a pain.. I have 3 sites that are M$ ie only.
[05:29] <Pelo> hammer123, it is possible that the entry just didnT' update you can make one later using main menu in the prefs menu ,  for now you can start it with alt_f2   just type devede
[05:29] <org_> h1st0, gutsy >_< but there they dont know... its weird problem
[05:29] <h1st0> Scunizi: Nutubuntu So install ie with wine
[05:29] <Nutubuntu> dystopianray,  yes. That workaround won't do it -- has to be IE and Javascript. May or may not work even then ... I'm not sure whether it needs the .NET framework, suspect it might.
[05:29] <h1st0> org_: you have to join #ubuntu+1 for gutsy talk
[05:29] <Scunizi> h1st0, you need .net and won't work

[05:34] <ghost> how can I make it so that this command " echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward; iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE
[05:34] <ghost> " is applied always, or at least at startup
[05:35] <timbo__> hello
[05:35] <citrusflavord> pelo i heard if you install xorg the load times sync up with the original zelda for the nes, is this true?
[05:35] <h1st0> ghost: why don't you just edit the ip_forward file and save it
[05:35] <thoreauputic> ghost: put it in /etc/rc.local
[05:35] <dystopianray> ghost: /etc/sysctl.conf
[05:35] <broken> Anyone know a good guitar tuner that uses mic input :/
[05:35] <xjkx> booting ubuntu 7.04 livecd i had an error like no such user/module layer or something wtf
[05:35] <zero> i joined +1...anybody else there?
[05:35] <jshriver> how do you unzip all the files in a directory?
[05:35] <jshriver> tried unzip *.zip
[05:35] <Pelo> citrusflavord,  no idea
[05:35] <jshriver> but it gives me errors
[05:36] <dystopianray> jshriver: for x in *.zip ; do unzip $x ; done
[05:36] <timbo__> I have intel high definition audio, and i was wondering why when i play songs it sounds like my left speaker is blown up but when im in vista it sounds fine
[05:36] <ghost> you guys gave me two differnt conf files which one should I use
[05:36] <ghost> rc.local or sysctl.conf
[05:36] <dystopianray> ghost: /etc/sysctl.conf
[05:36] <broken> timbo__: probably because of pcm
[05:36] <thoreauputic> ghost: yes sysctl is better
[05:36] <ghost> ok, and just append the line?
[05:36] <ghost> thanks
[05:36] <dystopianray> ghost: have a look in the file and you'll see what you need to do
[05:36] <timbo__> pcm?
[05:36] <h1st0> timbo__: What version of ubuntu are you using?
[05:37] <timbo__> i think its fiesty
[05:37] <hitomaro> --replace? how do I use go to run and replace vga with compiz again?
[05:37] <timbo__> 7.4 or whatever
[05:37] <broken> When I usually had that staticy sound it was due to my PCM in "alsamixer" being set to 100.
[05:37] <ghost> I have nothing uncommented ni this file so ill just append to the bottom
[05:37] <dystopianray> ghost: read the commented parts
[05:37] <xjkx> omg this channel has too many messages :/
[05:37] <h1st0> timbo__: cat /etc/issue
[05:38] <Y3k> I think i killed sudo, when i type "sudo" it gives me usage:, but when i do anything like "sudo apt-get update" it gives me nothing at all
[05:38] <hitomaro> xjkx, can you help me out?
[05:38] <vocx> xjkx, welcome. And be patient.
[05:38] <wastrel> sudo
[05:38] <wastrel> Y3k: how did you break it?
[05:38] <h1st0> Y3k: well sudo by itself should just give you usage
[05:38] <xjkx> hitomaro, whats your problem
[05:38] <Y3k> it did, but i can't do any commands with sudo
[05:39] <timbo__> 7.04
[05:39] <wastrel> Y3k: are you in the admin group?
[05:39] <h1st0> timbo__: is this just in one application that audio sounds like that?
[05:39] <Xitium> question for ya'll i'm starting vnc4server with -rfbport 5903 but everytime it starts it uses 5901 any ideas?
[05:39] <timbo__> no
[05:39] <ghost> dystopianray, I dont see what your telling me too look for, so I verbose pasted the console entery that i posted earlyer. WIll that be run at launch?
[05:39] <timbo__> all my audioplayers make that sound
[05:39] <dystopianray> ghost: did you read the sysctl.conf file?
[05:39] <Y3k> wastrel, doubt it, if i do "apt-get update" it gives me permission denied
[05:39] <ghost> yes
[05:39] <h1st0> timbo__: well have you tried vlc an audio player that uses a different backend?
[05:40] <timbo__> yes
[05:40] <wastrel> Y3k: "groups"
[05:40] <geezone> Anyone know if i can export firefox website to a folder or a file.
[05:40] <ghost> there is not much to it
[05:40] <h1st0> timbo__: hrm...
[05:40] <timbo__> one min
[05:40] <hitomaro> xjkx, how do I start compiz? It's been a while? do I go to run and type --replace?
[05:40] <ghost> # Uncomment the next line to enable packet forwarding for IPv4
[05:40] <ghost>  ?
[05:40] <wastrel> Y3k: is this the first user you created during the installation
[05:40] <h1st0> timbo__: check alsamixer make sure the levels aren't cranked then maybe look at the message from ubotu
[05:40] <Y3k> yea
[05:40] <dystopianray> ghost: yes, but the iptables command has to be done elsewhere
[05:40] <h1st0> !sound > timbo__
[05:40] <esoterik> hitomaro - f2 compiz --replace
[05:40] <hitomaro> thanks
[05:40] <ghost> ok
[05:40] <Y3k> although i did add it to another group... which might have changed the group it was supposed to be in
[05:40] <ghost> so what do I need to do
[05:41] <h1st0> hitomaro: compiz --replace
[05:41] <wastrel> Y3k: so are you in the admin group?
[05:41] <Y3k> how do i check?
[05:41] <gogeta> heh i have the compiz fusion panel

[05:41] <rocky_> whats the bottom thing called thats on your desktop like what mac has
[05:41] <wastrel> Y3k: "groups"
[05:41] <h1st0> ghost: remove the # at he front of the next line to uncomment it.

[05:41] <h1st0> rocky_: kicker?
[05:41] <ToddED1> hey guys, how do i get the songs off an Ipod using Ubuntu?
[05:41] <Y3k> wastrel, no
[05:41] <h1st0> wii: emerald --replace
[05:41] <thoreauputic> ghost: if you put that in your iptables script and run it on connect, it will always run anyway
[05:41] <gogeta> pluf it in
[05:41] <h1st0> wii: join #ubuntu-effects for support
[05:41] <gogeta> LOL

[05:42] <tetrach> how do i move files into a folder that wont let me
[05:42] <h1st0> !ipod | ToddED1
[05:42] <ubotu> ToddED1: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[05:42] <rocky_> how do i get it?
[05:42] <timbo__> it goes away when its lower but now i can hardly hear it
[05:42] <wastrel> Y3k: reboot into recovery mode and add yourself back to admin :/
[05:42] <timbo__> lol
[05:42] <h1st0> tetrach: what folder are you tyring to move them to?
[05:42] <Y3k> wastrel, alright thanks
[05:42] <h1st0> timbo__: check alsamixer

[05:42] <tetrach> mozilla plugins
[05:42] <geezone> Question can help or  dose anyone know how or if i can export the bookmarks of firefox out to a file or folder ..
[05:42] <dystopianray> ToddED1: gtkpod
[05:42] <tetrach> trying to get flash to work i am folling instructions
[05:43] <h1st0> xjkx: its compiz --replace
[05:43] <ToddED1> dystopianray: thanks
[05:43] <ghost> thoreauputic, can you elaborate? where can i find my iptables script and do i need to change the command?
[05:43] <h1st0> !flash > tetrach
[05:43] <Nubbie> hey guys, quick question, how do i change the command to put my computer to sleep? is there a gconf key or something?
[05:43] <kahrytan> ToddED1, default music app for ubuntu screws up playlist on ipods.
[05:43] <thoreauputic> geezone: sure - they are in ~/.mozilla/firefox/default* as an html file
[05:43] <dystopianray> geezone: you do it in the organize bookmarks part of firefox
[05:43] <h1st0> Nubbie: System > Administration > Keyboard Shortcuts ?
[05:43] <geezone> ok thanks..
[05:43] <ToddED1> thank you kahrytan
[05:43] <thoreauputic> ghost: you find your iptables script wherever you created it :)
[05:43] <kahrytan> ToddED1, then just mount the ipod. you can access the music on the drive.
[05:44] <robj232323> i'm new and starting to feel like I suck at this... how do I install plug-ins for firefox?
[05:44] <ghost> thoreauputic i guess i need to make one then
[05:44] <h1st0> Nubbie: system > preferences sry
[05:44] <rocky_> is it called  kicker? its a bottom icon that moves around so your desktop is clean
[05:44] <esoterik> tools>addons in firfox
[05:44] <kahrytan> ToddED1, Oddly named files but their all music files if you look deeper
[05:44] <h1st0> robj232323: what addons?
[05:44] <dystopianray> robj232323: usually you just click the plugin download links and firefox directrs you through isntalling them
[05:44] <EviL_SmUrF> if i have a network drive, how the heck do i get access to it through a screen that doesnt show "network"  like there is under the places menu in gnome
[05:44] <thoreauputic> ghost: I put mine in /etc/iptables.up - but you could put it in /usr/local/bin for example
[05:44] <Nubbie> h1st0: no, how do i change the command ubuntu uses to sleep the computer... the one it ships with is broken, and i've found one that successfully sleeps my computer and resumes it.
[05:44] <EviL_SmUrF> all it shows is the folders under /
[05:45] <Nubbie> so i could go to system > quit... > sleep
[05:45] <EviL_SmUrF> and i dont know how to get to a SMB shared drive from there
[05:45] <h1st0> Nubbie: So not the shortcut but the actual command it issues?
[05:45] <robj232323> plug-in for adobe flash
[05:45] <dystopianray> EviL_SmUrF: you can use smbmount to mount the drive
[05:45] <Nubbie> h1st0: precisely.
[05:45] <dystopianray> robj232323: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[05:45] <h1st0> Nubbie: hrm.. no idea on that one.
[05:45] <h1st0> Nubbie: That would be something with acpi but i'm not sure if there is a conf in /etc/
[05:45] <EviL_SmUrF> Is there an applet in ubuntu to mount a drive?
[05:46] <h1st0> EviL_SmUrF: gnome has one
[05:46] <Y3k> wastrel, ok it's probably fixed, thanks
[05:46] <Nubbie> EviL_SmUrF: yeah, it's installed by default.
[05:46] <kahrytan> ToddED1, you should get better music player :-P
[05:46] <Nutubuntu> Sound question. Last night sound worked fine. Today it's as if it's muted - barely audible. Alsamixer looks OK. What do I check next?
[05:46] <Spydi> test
[05:47] <thoreauputic> Spydi: failed
[05:47] <Spydi> htd
[05:47] <wastrel> Nutubuntu: physical connections to the speakers?
[05:47] <h1st0> Nutubuntu: the volume control on by the clock
[05:47] <h1st0> Nutubuntu: Is this a laptop?
[05:48] <hammer123> Nutubuntu : is the volume up?
[05:48] <Nutubuntu> h1st0,  volume control is on and up to about 80%. It's a desktop. wastrel, physical connex look OK; didn't change anything that I can think of. Volume's up, hammer123
[05:48] <EviL_SmUrF> man i just cant figure this out. what i would like to do is create a folder named "G" under /media/  which goes to //homelaptop/G
[05:48] <xjkx> where do i get the md5sum of the isos
[05:49] <h1st0> EviL_SmUrF: well you would need to make the folder sudo mkdir /media/G  and then add the mount to /etc/fstab
[05:49] <pyrak> anyone know how to disable the history on totem movie player?
[05:49] <h1st0> !fstab > EviL_SmUrF
[05:49] <lImItaO> bye
[05:49] <thoreauputic> xjkx: try releases.ubuntu.com
[05:49] <h1st0> pyrak: don't watch pr0n
[05:49] <dystopianray> EviL_SmUrF: sudo ln -s /homelaptop/G /media/G
[05:49] <pyrak> or perhaps know of a better movie player that'll allow me to go fullscreen in website-embedded movie players without having to start from the beginning again
[05:49] <EviL_SmUrF> So theres no easy way of doing this in ubuntu that doesnt involve having to open up the terminal and/or mess with config files?
[05:49] <pyrak> like how windows media lets you when you double-click
[05:50] <dystopianray> EviL_SmUrF: you need root privs to add anything to /media
[05:50] <h1st0> EviL_SmUrF: You could do it all in gui but you still have to edit a file to tell it what you want it to do.
[05:50] <robj232323> since ubuntu is better with hardware, can i install my harddrive on dissimalar hardware?
[05:50] <pyrak> right now the only reason i ever boot windows is for pron, so it'd be nice to fix these things so i dont have to
[05:51] <dystopianray> robj232323: yes
[05:51] <advancedonsite> hi guys & any girls too..... i was wondering if anyone knows which IRC channel is Ubuntu programming
[05:51] <dystopianray> robj232323: you may need a new xorg.conf but it should otherwise be fine
[05:51] <robj232323> thanks
[05:51] <underwatercow> How do I get the Keep daemon to stay running without leaving Keep minimized
[05:51] <thoreauputic> advancedonsite: it depends
[05:51] <dystopianray> advancedonsite: what sort of programming?
[05:51] <overclucker> EviL_SmUrF: by //homelaptop/G did you mean as a network shared folder
[05:51] <vocx> advancedonsite, #ubuntu-programming it is sleeping right now
[05:51] <Flats> Ok on the PPPD I'm getting close, I send ATZ^M OK  expect OK  ALARM Gconf server is not in use shutting down?  What is gconf server?
[05:51] <pyrak> anyone can shed some insight on my totem issues?
[05:51] <advancedonsite> well im trying to learn linux gui programming but im stuck not knowing what to start with
[05:52] <ghost> thoreauputic, do you have do to anything to make the script run at boot?
[05:52] <robj232323> anyone know how i can map a network drive to a different network?
[05:52] <advancedonsite> i know OOP PHP and i came from visual C++
[05:52] <altf2o> advancedonsite: depending on which language you know, there's several toolkits to use.
[05:52] <h1st0> EviL_SmUrF: editing a config file is a must because you can't just will your computer to do something.  The only reason we explain on here to do it throught he terminal is its easier than saying click here and there then move the mouse here etc...
[05:52] <advancedonsite> ok what would you suggest
[05:52] <altf2o> if you know C++, there's always QT. Or you can use gtkmm for C++ w/ the GTK+ toolkit.
[05:52] <thoreauputic> ghost: I don't run it at boot - I run it from /etc/dhcp3/ with an exit hook
[05:52] <EviL_SmUrF> Okay let me rephrase maybe. I'm not trying to sound dumb or anything lol. What I want to do, is:  Within Windows XP, I can open up My Computer, to Tools - Mount Network Drive, type in the path, and itll create a new drive and give it a letter, say X, that then goes to a network shared folder. I would like to do the same thing in Ubuntu.
[05:52] <advancedonsite> would i be stuck in a gnome environment or stuck in KDE env or will they be compatiable with both
[05:53] <EviL_SmUrF> the network shared folder is on an NTFS drive
[05:53] <ghost> so what should I do
[05:53] <thoreauputic> ghost: you probably need to look at some iptables howtos :)
[05:53] <wastrel> iptable
[05:53] <h1st0> EviL_SmUrF: you can click on Places > Network and mount a network drive that way
[05:53] <altf2o> advancedonsite: i run plenty of applications using the QT toolkit while using the GNOME environment.
[05:53] <thoreauputic> ghost: there's one on the ubuntu wiki
[05:53] <dystopianray> advancedonsite: gnome and kde are compatible
[05:53] <overclucker> ok, so the ln -s command may be disregarded
[05:53] <sid> I have a music player attached to my desktop via USB, and it's charging like that. But I want to sleep, and my Desktop is loud. Is there a way to turn off most of my machine, but keep the USB ports working sot he music player charges?
[05:53] <dedi> my system feels pretty slow and i want to find out why. looking for a howto or guide but have no idea where to start
[05:53] <pyrak> anyone know of a way to disable the history in totem?
[05:54] <advancedonsite> i was once told running QT on gnome is memory intensive because it has to load QT library
[05:54] <advancedonsite> is this BS or what
[05:54] <pyrak> or a diff video program that i can use to watch embedded website vids?
[05:54] <ghost> thoreaputic ok that sounds good thanks
[05:54] <pyrak> (is this no totem?)
[05:54] <dystopianray> advancedonsite: it does have to load the QT library, but it's hardly memory intensive
[05:54] <advancedonsite>  would you recommend QT to start?
[05:54] <dystopianray> sure
[05:54] <altf2o> advancedonsite: it wouldn't matter unless you've got very little RAM.
[05:54] <advancedonsite> where would i find this QT IDE
[05:54] <pyrak> i'd like to be able to double-click a video on a webpage and have it go fullscreen
[05:54] <advancedonsite> i got a gig of ram
[05:54] <altf2o> only reason then is because you have BOTH libraries resident in memory.
[05:55] <advancedonsite> i should be ok then
[05:55] <timbo__> is there an easy way to get beryl manager on startup?
[05:55] <dystopianray> advancedonsite: closest thing to a QT IDE is kdevelop
[05:55] <altf2o> sure, i do just fine w/ the same.
[05:55] <hammer123> Pelo...if u still around, i will ask u later for some questions on devede....now i have to run
[05:55] <astro76> advancedonsite, definitely kdevelop
[05:55] <advancedonsite> ok im going to try kdevelop that out thanks
[05:55] <vocx> hammer123, Pelo left indeed.
[05:55] <hammer123> ooo
[05:55] <dystopianray> advancedonsite: kdevelop is a KDE IDE
[05:55] <altf2o> isn't there a "QT Designer" ? I thought there was much more for QT than KDevelop.
[05:56] <hammer123> thanks...
[05:56] <overclucker> !samba > EviL_SmUrF
[05:56] <EviL_SmUrF> Okay, I see the "Connect to server" under File within the Network browser. I do that and now G shows up just fine. What is the absolute path for where this G is in the network browser? IE /mnt/G or something
[05:56] <astro76> altf2o, pretty sure you can do everything from kdevelop
[05:56] <advancedonsite> thanks
[05:56] <altf2o> yeah, i do like it.
[05:57] <marrabld> altlf20:QTdesigner isnt a full IDE just help build the GUI's
[05:57] <sid> anyone?
[05:57] <trakinas> has anyone ever used the html editor screem?
[05:57] <Nubbie> pyrak: use miro.
[05:57] <ToddED1> hey, whoever mentioned GTKPOD
[05:57] <dystopianray> ToddED1: that might have been me
[05:57] <ToddED1> hey... i cant load this ipod
[05:57] <ToddED1> on gtk
[05:58] <overclucker> EviL_SmUrF: do you mean the location of the folder, or the location in the network browser?
[05:58] <dystopianray> ToddED1: what sort of ipod is it?
[05:58] <DerangedDingo> ToddED1: What generation iPod?
[05:58] <ToddED1> 4gb nano
[05:58] <dystopianray> ToddED1: what generation nano?
[05:58] <ToddED1> how do i find out what generation
[05:58] <DerangedDingo> ToddED1: What does it look like?
[05:58] <dougdew> Ubuntu 7.04. Was working just fine. Then (probably after an update of the system), neither Firefox nor wget can connect to any servers via http. ping of the same servers works fine. Has anybody seen this problem before?
[05:58] <dystopianray> ToddED1: when did you buy it?
[05:58] <ToddED1> haha its blue!
[05:58] <advancedonsite> one last thing what programming language do the ubuntu programmers build ubuntu in?
[05:58] <EviL_SmUrF> overclucker: the location of the folder I just added in the network browser
[05:59] <dystopianray> ToddED1: is it one of those ugly short and fat ones?
[05:59] <EviL_SmUrF> it shows up as "G" under network browser, but what is that path of the G that it shows there
[05:59] <thoreauputic> advancedonsite: several :)
[05:59] <altf2o> advancedonsite: from what i see, damn near everything.
[05:59] <ToddED1> beginning of this year
[05:59] <Nubbie> EviL_SmUrF: open up nautilus, file > connect to server.
[05:59] <advancedonsite> lol
[05:59] <overclucker> EviL_SmUrF: did u use the command suggested above, to create it?
[05:59] <ToddED1> skinny one
[05:59] <DerangedDingo> ToddED1: Does it have the Anodized Aluminum case, or the chrome background, or can it do coverflow?
[05:59] <thoreauputic> advancedonsite: python seems to one favourite
[05:59] <ToddED1> its aluminum
[05:59] <EviL_SmUrF> overclucker: no, I used "Connect to server" under the network browser.
[05:59] <dystopianray> ToddED1: it should work then
[05:59] <DerangedDingo> back*
[06:00] <trakinas> ToddED1: have you tried gtkpod?
[06:00] <vocx> advancedonsite, which "ubuntu programmers"? Ubuntu applications are programed in whatever their authors want, but the Ubuntu distribution uses python tools to facilitate integrating things.
[06:00] <c0rrupt0r> im trying to install second life on my ubuntu 7.04 feisty and i get a window creation error any clues?
[06:00] <Nubbie> try banshee...
[06:00] <ToddED1> when i plug it in to the laptop, the default application opens up
[06:00] <advancedonsite> ahhh thanks vocx
[06:00] <Enric1> is ubuntu really good ?
[06:00] <ToddED1> i think its rhythm box
[06:00] <dystopianray> Enric1: yes
[06:00] <c0rrupt0r> loves ubuntu
[06:00] <Nubbie> Enric1: no it's horrible, but we use it anyways.
[06:00] <overclucker> EviL_SmUrF: well you could check for /media/G, or /mnt/G
[06:00] <advancedonsite> Enric1 are you kidding? its the best thing since SEX
[06:00] <IanLiu> What are the new things for the upcoming Ubuntu?
[06:00] <thoreauputic> Enric1: no, it sucks - that's why we are all here to complain ;p
[06:00] <DerangedDingo> by the way, can anyone help me with the vga values for my GRUB menu.lst? my TTY's have a messed up font size and I was told that would fix it. I have a 1280x1024 resolution... and on Edgy they were fine
[06:01] <EviL_SmUrF> thats the thing thats goofy
[06:01] <EviL_SmUrF> neither show up there
[06:01] <EviL_SmUrF> i *thought* it would be put under /mnt/
[06:01] <Nubbie> Enric1: advancedonsite's views don't represent all of our views on sex. sex is better than ubuntu.
[06:01] <Kanuha> when I do an "sudo apt-get install -d filename" where is the file downloaded
[06:01] <EviL_SmUrF> I can view all the files under G, but i dont know where the path is that it put it at
[06:01] <altf2o> Enric1: a lot of things about Ubuntu are great. It's a very nice distro. and IMHO, is making the most steps towards creating a nice end user experience.
[06:01] <advancedonsite> depends on with who Nubbie im sure certain women would change your mind
[06:01] <Nubbie> EviL_SmUrF: read a guide about the unix file structure, it will help you out.
[06:02] <wastrel> EviL_SmUrF:  look in /media/
[06:02] <trakinas> ToddED1: try gtkpod. i prefer it foir handling ipods
[06:02] <Enric1> been thinking about installing it
[06:02] <ToddED1> pweeese help me... its my nieces ipod, and my wifey wants the songs off it, if i dont get this i could be killed
[06:02] <Nubbie> advancedonsite: i've never had sex with these women. sounds like you've had some rough experiences.
[06:02] <trakinas> my sister has the same model as you and it worked wonderfully
[06:02] <ToddED1> im trying gtkpod
[06:02] <overclucker> EviL_SmUrF: and this is a mounted disk, or just  a folder?
[06:02] <vocx> Nubbie, advancedonsite totally off topic!
[06:02] <Nubbie> ToddED1: try banshee.
[06:02] <ToddED1> how can i get rid of rythmbox?
[06:02] <advancedonsite> no im just comparing my love of ubuntu and nothing can compare
[06:02] <dystopianray> ToddED1: gtkpod should work, what is it doing to indicate failure?
[06:02] <ToddED1> Nubbie:  i tried banshee too
[06:02] <Nubbie> ToddED1: its difficult. i wouldn't bother.
[06:02] <trakinas> ToddED1: it will probably work. you will just have to select colour and size. =P
[06:02] <EviL_SmUrF> overclucker: It is a shared out network drive on a Windows XP machine
[06:03] <c0rrupt0r> i am trying to install second life on my Ubuntu 7.04 feisty and i get a window creation error any clues?
[06:03] <EviL_SmUrF> samba services are working great, its seeing it fine and I can view all the files and folders on it in network browser
[06:03] <ToddED1> trak, i selected six gen blue nano
[06:03] <dystopianray> c0rrupt0r: 'install' ? you just unpack a tarball and run it
[06:03] <trakinas> c0rrupt0r: sl sucks. you should be happy! =P
[06:03] <trakinas> jk
[06:03] <trakinas> i cant help
[06:03] <altf2o> Enric1: you could do what i did, i got a trial of VMWare Workstation, created a virtual machine w/ Ubuntu 7.04 (it's what i'm currently using).
[06:03] <trakinas> :/
[06:03] <netham45> does anyone know a program like Xdmx for Ubuntu? Xdmx has some glitches I can't seem to overcome.
[06:03] <altf2o> i simply lack the hardware to install it on it's own machine, so this is what i'm using until then.
[06:03] <dystopianray> netham45: what is Xdmx?
[06:03] <owen1> how to burn a folder into a dvd/cd?
[06:04] <c0rrupt0r> lol maybe i am lucky then. just a buddy of mine wanted me to install it so its no big deal thanks for your help lol
[06:04] <trakinas> ToddED1: if im not wrong, it shows like (blue 4gb etc...)
[06:04] <c0rrupt0r> or
[06:04] <Nubbie> netham45: explain what xdmx is...
[06:04] <dystopianray> c0rrupt0r: what video card do you have>?
[06:04] <Kanuha> when I do an "sudo apt-get install -d ndiswrapper-common" where is the file downloaded
[06:04] <c0rrupt0r> i should say tarball and run it
[06:04] <netham45> Xdmx is a tool that lets you have a multihead setup across a network.
[06:04] <Enric1> altf2co: thats what I am thinking 2
[06:04] <dystopianray> Kanuha: /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:04] <ToddED1> ok i got it.. sorry, the default home/ipod was the wrong mount point
[06:05] <Ahadiel> It is possible to manually scan for wireless AP's with Network-manager?
[06:05] <ToddED1> not home... media
[06:05] <netham45> !info xdmx
[06:05] <ubotu> xdmx: Distributed Multihead X server. In component universe, is optional. Version 2:1.2.0-3ubuntu8 (feisty), package size 780 kB, installed size 1708 kB
[06:05] <overclucker> EviL_SmUrF: well you could type sudo fdisk -l | grep G , duno if that's relevent though
[06:05] <netham45> !xdmx
[06:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xdmx - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:05] <ToddED1> its actually media/Homes ipod
[06:05] <advancedonsite> hey corruptor which ver of wine
[06:05] <ToddED1> for some reason
[06:05] <owen1> how to burn a folder on dvd/cd?
[06:05] <dystopianray> ToddED1: it should automatically detect the ipod location
[06:05] <c0rrupt0r> im not to sure im running a crappy hp pavilion 7940 for now till i get the pc im building finished. also this video card is built into the board so it really sucks
[06:05] <Y3k> how do i go from gdm straight to just terminal?
[06:05] <ToddED1> dystopianray:  yup i see the songs now
[06:05] <dystopianray> Y3k: ctrl+alt+f1
[06:06] <ToddED1> thanks guys
[06:06] <Nubbie> owen1: Places > CD/DVD Creator.... or install gnome-baker
[06:06] <advancedonsite> are you at a command prompt
[06:06] <overclucker> EviL_SmUrF: just checking, but is the disk physically attached to your computer?
[06:06] <Y3k> dystopianray, thanks
[06:06] <ToddED1> how can i sync the ipod with a folder
[06:06] <Kanuha> dystopianray, thx, found it. Is it safe to delete these files to get space back on the hard drive?
[06:06] <Enric1> altf2o: Vmware is great !!  .. no more rebuilds
[06:06] <advancedonsite>  wine --version
[06:06] <DerangedDingo> Can anyone help me with the vga values for my GRUB menu.lst? I have a 1280x1024 resolution and my font in the TTY's is too big. It goes off screen
[06:06] <owen1> Nubbie: ok, i thought burning is out of the box in ubuntu!
[06:07] <dystopianray> Kanuha: try: sudo apt-get autoclean
[06:07] <dystopianray> owen1: it is
[06:07] <Kanuha> dystopianray, thx I will try it
[06:07] <altf2o> Enric1: it's a great tool. I'm running Ubuntu (trying out new KDE) currently w/ almost full "special effects" on, and it's incredibly responsive.
[06:07] <advancedonsite> theres nero for linux also
[06:07] <advancedonsite> how is that new KDE
[06:07] <dystopianray> the only reason to use nero for linux is hddvd and blu-ray
[06:07] <altf2o> if i didn't have the unfortunate displeasure of seeing my host OS start button, it would feel like this is the host OS.
[06:08] <Nubbie> owen1: it is out of the box....
[06:08] <owen1> dystopianray: Nubbis just told me to get cd/dvd creator or gnome-baker...
[06:08] <RiM> Any C programmers out there?
[06:08] <altf2o> advancedonsite: i'm a fan thus far, very nice IMO.
[06:08] <dystopianray> owen1: use cd/dvd creator
[06:08] <ToddED1> cmon guys, you dont want to hear about a wife that killed her husband cause he didnt get the songs off an Ipod!!!
[06:08] <ToddED1> hehe
[06:08] <owen1> dystopianray: what is it?
[06:08] <dystopianray> RiM: yes
[06:08] <c0rrupt0r> wine version 0.9.33
[06:08] <EviL_SmUrF> overclucker: It's not showing up in the disk list. Yes, this drive is physically connected to the windows xp machine, and shared out from there
[06:08] <gogeta> i do
[06:08] <dystopianray> owen1: Places -> cd/dvd creator
[06:08] <EviL_SmUrF> the ubuntu machine has mounted this shared drive under the network browser
[06:08] <Nubbie> owen1: please listen carefully... at the top of your screen... press "Places" then "CD/DVD Creator"
[06:08] <gogeta> we told ya gtkpod
[06:08] <overclucker> EviL_SmUrF: to the windows xp machine, not the ubuntu machine?
[06:08] <owen1> dystopianray: Nubbie I don't have this in my places menu.
[06:08] <vocx> DerangedDingo, vga values can be found in some posts in the forums, I use vga=792 or 789, I think. 789 is bigger, 792 is smaller,795 even smaller.
[06:09] <Nubbie> owen1: OR if you want more options and flexibility... then you can install gnome-baker
[06:09] <dystopianray> ToddED1: didn't you already get gtkpod working?
[06:09] <Vampier> hi :)
[06:09] <EviL_SmUrF> yes, its physically connected to the windows xp machine
[06:09] <Nubbie> owen1: are you sure you have a cd burner.......
[06:09] <Vampier> I'm new to Ubuntu :P
[06:09] <advancedonsite> well that wine ver should be ok which version of ubuntu ?
[06:09] <EviL_SmUrF> and shared out as "G"
[06:09] <advancedonsite> which ver of second life
[06:09] <EviL_SmUrF> i have mounted "G" on the ubuntu machine in the network browser
[06:09] <c0rrupt0r> ubuntu 7.04 feisty
[06:09] <Vampier> how do I switch to SU?
[06:09] <advancedonsite> su -
[06:09] <wastrel> sudo -i
[06:09] <owen1> Nubbie: yes, it's recognizes in 'places->computers'
[06:09] <EviL_SmUrF> i just dont know where the heck it mounted it *at* in the file structure

[06:10] <wastrel> EviL_SmUrF: actually it's not mounted
[06:10] <ToddED1> ok trakinas
[06:10] <dystopianray> EviL_SmUrF: have you mounted your smb share?
[06:10] <rocky_> im looking for a desktop is like icon that move around does any one know what they called?
[06:10] <wastrel> EviL_SmUrF: unless you used smbmount.  it's a virtual type of thing
[06:10] <owen1> Nubbie: when i go to 'places->computers' i can see my HP burner.
[06:10] <wastrel> nautilus handles it
[06:10] <EviL_SmUrF> hah
[06:10] <EviL_SmUrF> thank you
[06:10] <EviL_SmUrF> lol
[06:10] <gogeta> what rocky
[06:10] <advancedonsite> corruptor http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=4619
[06:10] <trakinas> ToddED1: 1st result in google. i hope it helps: http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/07/07/how-to-use-gtkpod-to-manage-your-ipod-in-ubuntu/
[06:10] <Nubbie> owen1: type this into nautilus... "burn:///"
[06:10] <RiM> I'm just starting to use C on linux, have used it on DOS/Windows. But it seems that stuf is not in headers I am used to, also can't find the C header files. I tried to print out OPEN_MAX but system said it was undefined. I #include <limits.h> which is where I thought it was. Then I tried to find limits,h - no luck.
[06:10] <dystopianray> advancedonsite: c0rrupt0r are you trying to run second life in wine?
[06:10] <gogeta> do you mean a dock
[06:10] <owen1> Nubbie: CD-RW/DVD+RW Drive
[06:10] <c0rrupt0r> SL version 1.18.3.5
[06:10] <rocky_> mac has it on they desktop
[06:10] <overclucker> EviL_SmUrF: huh, not sure where, but you could try searching for a unique file on the mount: whereis thatfile
[06:11] <owen1> Nubbie: ok, 1 sec
[06:11] <gogeta> you mean a dock
[06:11] <dystopianray> RiM: have you installed build-essential ?
[06:11] <ToddED1> trakinas:  i think i got it
[06:11] <gogeta> thers a few to slect from
[06:11] <c0rrupt0r> no i have unpacked the linux version of SL
[06:11] <rocky_> now sure what they are called
[06:11] <gogeta> kiba-dock uses compiz
[06:11] <dystopianray> c0rrupt0r: just unpack it and run it
[06:11] <dystopianray> c0rrupt0r: what video card do you have?
[06:11] <advancedonsite> corruptor are you trying to run sl in wine
[06:11] <gogeta> thers a few of them
[06:11] <owen1> Nubbie: burn:/// is not a valid location.
[06:11] <c0rrupt0r> i have unpacked it and ran it but then im getting a windows creation error
[06:11] <EviL_SmUrF> wastrel: okay, now. is there a way of actually physically mounting it *without* having to open up terminal? It is not that I personally am against having to use terminal, it is that i am trying to get my mother to start using ubuntu and she will never go for an OS that she cant just point and click to do things
[06:11] <Vampier> I <3 Ubuntu :)
[06:11] <advancedonsite> ahh what is the errors?
[06:12] <c0rrupt0r> im using the linux version not the windows version
[06:12] <c0rrupt0r> windows creation error
[06:12] <dystopianray> EviL_SmUrF: why do you need to mount it? just point and click as you are already doing to view the share
[06:12] <c0rrupt0r> is what the pop up keeps saying every time i go to run it
[06:12] <RiM> No, not sure what that is. Also sorry but I can't read your name, it shows up in yellow on my system and I can't read it, sorry
[06:12] <gogeta> thers kooldoc
[06:12] <dystopianray> c0rrupt0r: what video card do you have?
[06:12] <EviL_SmUrF> dystopianray: because MPlayer doesnt use the regular file browser, it uses its own, and doesnt support going into network browser
[06:12] <wastrel> EviL_SmUrF: install smbmount and add it to /etc/fstab maybe (just a guess, never used fstab for samba stuff)
[06:12] <switchcat> I'm trying to figure out why my X sometimes freezes/seemingly won't accept keyboard input and how to fix it. (Ubuntu feisty 7.04)...
[06:13] <eyemean> hello every one
[06:13] <dystopianray> RiM: you need to install build-essential
[06:13] <EviL_SmUrF> wastrel: okay, so gnome doesnt have just a file - mount drive or something like Windows XP has?
[06:13] <owen1> Nubbie: any ideas? i get "burn:///" is not a valid location."
[06:13] <switchcat> it's currently frozen (the mouse pointer moves but it doesn't accept any mouse button inputs).. and no keyboard inputs seemingly
[06:13] <switchcat> except the ability to go back to console
[06:13] <trakinas> awesome
[06:13] <wastrel> er sbfs
[06:13] <wastrel> smbfs
[06:13] <rhelmer> RiM: /usr/include/limits.h is in the package libc6-dev, as dystopianray says you can just install build-essential
[06:13] <overclucker> dystopianray: everyone needs to install build-essential (;
[06:13] <eyemean> im going out of my mind trying to compile jbidwatcher-1.0.2.tar.gz for ubuntu 7.04
[06:13] <advancedonsite> just window creation error no other possible details?
[06:13] <Nubbie> switchcat: are you using effects, beryl, compiz, etc?
[06:13] <dystopianray> overclucker: why?
[06:13] <eyemean> can any1 pls help
[06:14] <wastrel> EviL_SmUrF: i dunno, i use cli to manage mounts
[06:14] <RiM> dystopianray, thanks I'll try that
[06:14] <Dr_willis> eyemean,  any specific problem?
[06:14] <rockets> !patience |eyemean
[06:14] <ubotu> eyemean: 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
[06:14] <gogeta> rocky thers gnome dock
[06:14] <lee__> I...aaaammm back
[06:14] <switchcat> no, i don't run any special effects
[06:14] <RiM> rhelmer thanks for the additional info
[06:14] <c0rrupt0r> advancedonsite exactly just window creation error no other details
[06:15] <overclucker> dystopianray: at some point, they will come here asking for one of those packages
[06:15] <eyemean> yes dr-willis, i cant seem to find the right coommands to compile jbidwatcher-1.0.2.tar.gz for ubuntu 7.04
[06:15] <eyemean> im very new to linux
[06:15] <lee__> ok i hav a question about wine..eh either only this one can't be consumed other then by the Pc..eh and I am alergice to it lol
[06:15] <gogeta> lol eyeman
[06:15] <switchcat> does anybody have any suggestion of a process that I can kill and restart without having all my X programs stop mid-stream?
[06:15] <overclucker> dyni know it's notcompletely true, but it seems like it
[06:15] <eyemean> sorry rockets and ubotu, i didnt mean to come across like that
[06:16] <gogeta> killall appname
[06:16] <dystopianray> overclucker: you only install it if you want to compile things, something most people won't do
[06:16] <gogeta> or ps -A
[06:16] <gogeta> then find the prosses you wana kill
[06:16] <gogeta> kil 1234
[06:16] <Dr_willis> eyemean,  normally you install the various compiler/tools (build-essential package) then unpack the source, then compile it following its docs.
[06:16] <Dr_willis> eyemean,   You mean to say you are 'totally lost' and dont know where to even begin?
[06:16] <Dr_willis> !info jbidwatcher
[06:16] <ubotu> Package jbidwatcher does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:16] <lee__> no.. al though the one sight that I want to go to said only avail for xp blabla
[06:17] <Dr_willis> !find jbidwatcher
[06:17] <wastrel> jbidwatcher would look like a java proggy
[06:17] <ubotu> Package/file jbidwatcher does not exist in feisty
[06:17] <switchcat> gogeta - I know _how_ to kill a process, I'm just trying to figure out if there is one that will make X work again
[06:17] <lee__> is running gutsy
[06:17] <eyemean> yes dr_willis, im lost as to where to even start
[06:17] <TravellingSalesM> hello everyone, i have a question, after two years i wanted to play a game but couldn't find a single good game! could someone introduce me a good online source to check for top linux games?
[06:17] <overclucker> dystopianray: i know, my staement is completely unsupported \ :
[06:17] <wastrel> !games
[06:17] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[06:17] <dystopianray> lee__: gutsy support only in #ubuntu+1
[06:17] <rhelmer> eyemean: why do you need to compile it?
[06:18] <Dr_willis> eyemean,  i would have to say start with the programs homepage on  hope they got some install docs. :0 is it a java program? or C?
[06:18] <eyemean> no its not in ubuntu list
[06:18] <rhelmer> eyemean: why not just download the binary .jar ?
[06:18] <gogeta> www.happypenguin.org
[06:18] <gogeta> aka linux game tome
[06:18] <c0rrupt0r> im just going to go about finishing my linux box and get it working great with better graphix and hardware :)
[06:18] <lee__> Fianl fantasy 11 lol but eh you need a Pc with windows or..a ps2 or x box or I heard of it running on a ps3
[06:18] <Nubbie> TravellingSalesM: Tremulous, Open Arena, Neverball, Wormux, Enemy Territory, etc.
[06:18] <gogeta> did someone say ff11
[06:18] <gogeta> you fail at mmorpg
[06:18] <advancedonsite> corruptor
[06:18] <eyemean> rhelmer, i tried the jar file and it just dont work properly, and i have hava installed
[06:19] <Dr_willis> eyemean,  you are refering to ---------->   http://sourceforge.net/projects/jbidwatcher/  ??
[06:19] <advancedonsite> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3476167
[06:19] <rhelmer> eyemean: well you'll need to get help from them i guess.. looks here's a similar program "esniper" in ubuntu already, you might want to try that instead
[06:19] <owen1> I can't see CD/DVD burner under 'Places'. any ideas?
[06:19] <c0rrupt0r> takes a peak thanks advancedonsite
[06:19] <thoreauputic> RoC_MasterMind: OK
[06:19] <dystopianray> owen1: do you have a cd or dvd burner?
[06:19] <Dr_willis> eyemean,  if it comes in a java .jar file.. download it, (install the sun java als0) unpack it. java -jar whatever.jar normally
[06:19] <RoC_MasterMind> thx
[06:19] <eyemean> thats correct dr_willis
[06:20] <owen1> dystopianray: yes. and it works under windows.
[06:20] <Nubbie> owen1: install gnome-baker
[06:20] <rhelmer> eyemean: did you see http://www.jbidwatcher.com/help/faq.shtml#ans20
[06:20] <eyemean> rhelmer, didnt realise that, will give that a go now thank you
[06:20] <rhelmer> eyemean: sure
[06:20] <owen1> Nubbie: ok, i'll do it now.
[06:20] <FatMom> I cant get the vsync to works with games, like warsow or et, can we have vsync with linux bin drivers?
[06:20] <rhelmer> eyemean: if you want to try jbidwatcher again, make sure you have the right version of java as they suggest ^
[06:20] <lee__> any how, I need to know how wine works and waht prgrams will work, I tried show biz and it never executed, so I exectured it form my machine
[06:20] <rhelmer> eyemean: since it's java, recompiling is not going to help, java binaries are cross-platform
[06:20] <arghh2d2> Anyone know if there is a good GUI for apache or any kind of http server?  I'm just not tech'd up enough yet to do it all by command line.
[06:21] <Dr_willis> http://www.jbidwatcher.com/download/JBidWatcher-1.0.2.jar
[06:21] <Nubbie> lee__: try google.

[06:21] <lee__> ahh ok..
[06:21] <Nubbie> TravellingSalesM: tell your friends.
[06:21] <DerangedDingo> vocx: Sorry for the late response. I'm coding right now.. I'm searching the forums right now though. thanks
[06:21] <vocx> DerangedDingo, forgot the question, ha ha
[06:22] <bullgard4> Does an underscore at the beginning of an identifier have a special meaning?
[06:22] <dystopianray> bullgard4: what identifier?
[06:22] <lee__> yeah i just spent an hour my self coding the  ati card
[06:22] <bullgard4> dystopianray: all identifiers
[06:22] <dystopianray> bullgard4: where are you seeing these identifiers?
[06:22] <lee__> hmm now i get this message saying i need to up date..but then it says its up to date lol
[06:23] <bullgard4> dystopianray: 'identifier' is a well-known term in programming languages. --  I see it in the ACPI specification 3.0b.
[06:23] <Vampier> jay :)

[06:24] <dystopianray> bullgard4: yes I know about programming language identifiers, but you provided no context, also I don't know anything about the ACPI spec

[06:24] <bullgard4> dystopianray: Thank you that you were trying to help me.
[06:24] <lee__> is there away to test to see if the 3d effects are working on the card?

[06:25] <eyemean> rhelmer, are you sure esniper is already  in ubuntu, cant find it in software list
[06:25] <Dr_willis> !find esniper
[06:25] <dissection> I installed Ubuntu on my laptop yesterday but it randomly gets stuck. How do I diagnose the problem? Its happening a few times everyday.
[06:25] <ubotu> Package/file esniper does not exist in feisty
[06:25] <Dr_willis> dissection,  what video card for starters. :)
[06:26] <lee__> Ati x300
[06:26] <rhelmer> eyemean: oops, sorry it's only in gutsy :(
[06:26] <dissection> Dr_willis: I have a GeForce but I'm running it as Vesa with all tbe default options
[06:26] <gogeta> LOL
[06:26] <rhelmer> eyemean: i should've checked that
[06:26] <gogeta> try installing the nivida drivers
[06:26] <eyemean> rhelmer that ok
[06:26] <Dr_willis> dissection,  may want to try the nvidia drivers then..  with a laptop.. it could have all sortsof little quirks. Thers laptop forums on the ubuntu pages i recall.
[06:26] <lee__> eh no idea on how i asm running it lol
[06:26] <wastrel> vesa
[06:26] <dissection> My card doesn't have drivers available yet
[06:27] <gogeta> hua
[06:27] <Dr_willis> dissection,  what card is it EXACTLY then?
[06:27] <lee__> hu?
[06:27] <dissection> GeForce 8600M GT
[06:27] <Dr_willis> 8600 - i though should be decently well supported.
[06:27] <MeRodent> dissection, the nvidia 100.14.19 drivers support it.
[06:27] <dissection> It isn't listed
[06:27] <eyemean> !find esniper where do i use that pls?
[06:27] <Dr_willis> not listed dosent mean not supported. :)
[06:28] <ubotu> Package/file esniper does not exist in feisty
[06:28] <MeRodent> dissection, it's just not supported in the ubuntu supported drivers.
[06:28] <Nubbie> eyeman: can you please stop it with the robot?
[06:28] <Dr_willis> it may mean nvidia just took some other card and slowed it down and changes its name.
[06:28] <eyemean> ubotu , cheers
[06:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cheers - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:28] <dystopianray> Dr_willis: your card won't be supported until gutsy
[06:28] <Nubbie> eyeman: or start whispering it please?

[06:28] <gogeta> hehe
[06:28] <advancedonsite> i see gutsy has a .17 kernal update Should i install it though
[06:28] <jonalso> any early adopters re: dell ubuntu?
[06:28] <advancedonsite> .18 i mean
[06:29] <dystopianray> advancedonsite: gutsy support only in #ubuntu+1
[06:29] <gogeta> i saw one yesterday
[06:29] <Nubbie> jonalso: dell users are late adopters.
[06:29] <gogeta> having issues lol
[06:29] <eyemean> nubbiie, sorry i dont know what you mean pls explain.
[06:29] <advancedonsite> how do you do that in red
[06:29] <Dr_willis> jonalso,  watch out for dell.. they can have bargins/deals in one dept, and not in others. :)
[06:29] <upgrdman> hello all. I am having problems with my grub configuation and the hdx,x notation. how does that notation relate to a /dev/something partition?
[06:29] <gogeta> !dell
[06:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dell - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:29] <Nubbie> eyemean: type this... "/msg ubotu (insert rambling here)"
[06:29] <Dr_willis> !java
[06:29] <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
[06:29] <dissection> MeRodent: But how do I install that if it isn't supported by Ubuntu? I need to mess around with the kernel? I have no idea how to do all that.
[06:30] <dystopianray> upgrdman: the drive your bios boots is hd0
[06:30] <gogeta> easly
[06:30] <lee__> eh ok um...what cameras work? then with liux..eh i have a ps2  cam that i used for windows lol..and i have the drivers for it..eh i kinda down loaded it 3 years ago lol
[06:30] <thoreauputic> upgrdman: hda1 is (0,0) in grub speak
[06:30] <jonalso> i had heard they were shipping with faulty/inop graphics drivers.  i was wondering if this were still the case
[06:30] <eyemean> LOL sorry everyone, i really did not have a clue
[06:30] <MeRodent> upgrdman, hd<device count from 0>,<partition no. from 0>
[06:30] <Dr_willis> dissection,  may want to wait the 2 weeks or so - for gutsy to get released.
[06:30] <gogeta> you just need build essentles and the nivida driver from niovida
[06:30] <MeRodent> dissection, hang 5.
[06:30] <dystopianray> lee__: it connects through a ps/2 port?
[06:30] <dystopianray> thoreauputic: that is not right
[06:30] <gogeta> its pretty easy
[06:31] <thoreauputic> dystopianray: ?
[06:31] <root> hi
[06:31] <root> como estan
[06:31] <omegaweopon> Alright, time for a resolution exam.  My computer just wont display nicely.  It's HUGE how do I shrink stuff down?  It says Im on the 1024X768 but it sure doesnt look that way to me
[06:31] <dystopianray> thoreauputic: the first grub drive is whatever your bios is set to boot from, which may very well be /dev/hdz
[06:31] <hitomaro> my video card will not boot no matter what. :(
[06:31] <Vampier> don't chat as root root :)
[06:31] <Wolf23> overclucker:  wb
[06:31] <lee__> no the camer is a PS2 cgaming console camera lol
[06:31] <root> esto es una Test para Rtm
[06:31] <thoreauputic> dystopianray: oh I see what you mean - yes
[06:31] <lee__> eh Eye toy
[06:31] <thoreauputic> dystopianray: I was just making the point that you start from 0
[06:31] <upgrdman> ok, well now to the tricky part with my grub problem... i have sata hdds, and an ata/ide drive... how do i know what maps to what? hda, hdb, sda, etc.
[06:31] <wastrel> omegaweopon: what says you're 1024x768
[06:31] <lee__> so how would I config it to work?
[06:31] <Nubbie> jonalso: i wouldn't but a dell personally. read up on hardware that is 100% supportive of linux and try to build a computer yourself, you'll probably save money and get a warm fuzzy feeling of accomplishment.
[06:32] <Dr_willis> I got a PlayStation 2 EyeToy Camera somewhere also. :)
[06:32] <lee__> or just plug it in
[06:32] <omegaweopon> System> Preferences> Screen Resolution
[06:32] <Dr_willis> i use it on the wifes windows pc. heh
[06:32] <lee__> oh it makes for a heck of a web cam
[06:32] <gogeta> you can also use envy to install it
[06:32] <dystopianray> lee__: there may not be a driver for it
[06:32] <lee__> envy?
[06:32] <overclucker> oh, heh
[06:32] <MeRodent> dissection, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39735/  - works with the current 100.14.19 drivers too. Just upgraded.

[06:32] <hitomaro> Can I use beryl/compiz with my onboard video card? because I can't seem to get my nvidia7600 gs to work at all.
[06:32] <gogeta> http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[06:32] <hitomaro> on ubuntu
[06:32] <lee__> hmm I have the drivers for it
[06:32] <lee__> well for th window version
[06:33] <jonalso> nubbie: i am having great success with ubuntu right now.  i just need a new laptop
[06:33] <gnychis> ikonia: are you there by chance? I built the kernel source following the guide but am not sure what the appropriate vmlinux is to use
[06:33] <overclucker> !envy > lee__
[06:33] <lee__> envy?
[06:33] <Scunizi> hitomaro, were we talking earlier about getting your gui running?  Did it work?
[06:33] <nomasteryoda> takes care of lots of video driver issues... if you're lucky
[06:33] <gogeta> it a nivida/ati driver downloader and installer
[06:33] <lee__> is taht as in a progrm or I envey you lol
[06:33] <Wolf23> overclucker:  dude help me
[06:33] <ToddED1> ok guys, new question... i got a bluetooth adaptor and its for windows... could someone help me get this thing goin?
[06:33] <hitomaro> yes we were Scunizi. :) Ubuntu is finally running but only with my onboard video card
[06:33] <Nubbie> jonalso: i'm using a sony vaio VGN C240E model laptop and it's working wonderfully... check up on it.
[06:34] <thoreauputic> root: don't IRC as root - it's silly in the extreme and will get you kicked from most channels
[06:34] <dystopianray> ToddED1: most bluetooth adapters 'just work'
[06:34] <lee__> I have a web sight where you can down load the drivers
[06:34] <overclucker> Wolf23: hmm, what's you problem?
[06:34] <ToddED1> doh hold on ..
[06:34] <Nubbie> ToddED1: what do you mean "for windows" ?? it's for your computer, plug it in.
[06:34] <upgrdman> i have two computers that use wifi to get internet and home network access. both also have eth cards, and i can hook up a patch cable between the two to get gigE, instead of flooding the airwaves... how do i setup the two linux boxes to work with wifi for external network usage, and eth for 192.168.1.x IPs?
[06:34] <Scunizi> hitomaro, good..
[06:34] <nomasteryoda> ToddED1, it will work with Ubuntu ... just plugin .. install the Bluetooth frontends for gnome or kde if you are using it
[06:34] <nomasteryoda> works
[06:34] <dystopianray> lee__: windows drivers aren't any help on linux
[06:34] <lee__> erg
[06:34] <lee__> rats
[06:34] <Wolf23> overclucker:  do u know about gnokii?
[06:34] <Dr_willis> !info gnokii
[06:34] <ubotu> gnokii: Datasuite for the mobile phones (console & X). In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.14-3 (feisty), package size 821 kB, installed size 2944 kB
[06:34] <thoreauputic> dystopianray: unless for ndiswrapper
[06:34] <Nubbie> lee__: go complain to whoever wrote those drivers.
[06:35] <lee__> lol
[06:35] <lee__> hmm
[06:35] <overclucker> Wolf23: haven't the need to explore it
[06:35] <hitomaro> Scunizi, should I just buy a new motherboard?
[06:35] <lee__> no it was for windows originaly lol
[06:35] <ToddED1> nomasteryoda:  what are these frontends?
[06:35] <Scunizi> hitomaro, why?
[06:35] <lee__> I was jsut curiouse though
[06:35] <Scunizi> hitomaro, I've been away for a while
[06:35] <lee__> though its picked up as a usb mic lol
[06:35] <dystopianray> ToddED1: ubuntu should support bluetooth out of the box
[06:35] <nomasteryoda> on gnome, just open the package manager and search for bluetooth
[06:35] <Wolf23> overclucker:  i have nokia 6230 with dku cable?
[06:35] <nomasteryoda> yes it does
[06:35] <lee__> and it there
[06:36] <lee__> tons of blue toothy thingy
[06:36] <nomasteryoda> i use bluetooth headphones and a bluetooth mouse...
[06:36] <Dr_willis> ive had a lot of BlueTooth Headaches befor. :)
[06:36] <gogeta> and i use wifi rawr
[06:36] <hitomaro> Scunizi, I've been having compatibility issues with ubuntu on this pc, my pc downstairs works smoothly but with this is nothing but headacke
[06:36] <overclucker> Wolf23: and what is you specific complaint?
[06:36] <nomasteryoda> one internal bt and one external... due to my stereo....
[06:36] <ToddED1> i use mine for my phone and PocketPC(on windows)
[06:36] <nomasteryoda> Dr_willis, LOL
[06:36] <Scunizi> hitomaro, what's happening.
[06:36] <p> How can I install java6 and make it work with my mozilla-firefox on amd64 system?
[06:37] <Scunizi> !java64
[06:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about java64 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:37] <dystopianray> p: there is no 64-bit browser plugin
[06:37] <Wolf23> overclucker:  i want to transfer all the files from my cell to pc, coz there are important documents
[06:37] <nomasteryoda> ToddED1, if the phone worked with windows, then just set to paring mode... then run "sudo hcitool scan" to find the phone
[06:37] <gogeta> ino=portant docs on a cell
[06:37] <gogeta> LO
[06:37] <eMo_9irL> santy
[06:38] <hitomaro> Scunizi, It's just my video card and my onboard not listening to one another I presume when it comes to ubuntu, I bought a new graphics card because of this very reason but it's still the same problem, my conclusion is that it has to be my motherboard thats causing all this mess
[06:38] <p> dystopianray, well.. is there a way using ia32-libs or something else?
[06:38] <gogeta> steals cell
[06:38] <nomasteryoda> or do it with the gui... there is also a btsco gui tool and a2dpd for stereo headphones...
[06:38] <dystopianray> p: you'll need a 32-bit firefox
[06:38] <overclucker> Wolf23: are you able to connect it from gnokii?
[06:38] <EviL_SmUrF> man, what could be the cause of the divx video looking so much more blocky on the ubuntu laptop under VLC, Totem, Gxine, etc than it does on WMP using regular divx?
[06:38] <p> dystopianray, sorry.. but you are wrong
[06:38] <p> I know its possible
[06:38] <EviL_SmUrF> what should I be looking at to make the video not look so pixelated?
[06:38] <MeRodent> hitomaro, do you need the onboard video as you may be able to disable it in bios.
[06:38] <Scunizi> hitomaro, are you trying to use two monitors? one on the onboard graphics card and the other on .. the other.?
[06:38] <dystopianray> p: with nspluginwrapper?
[06:39] <gogeta> evil try turning up the detil mode ot setting it to use opengl
[06:39] <gogeta> or
[06:39] <Wolf23> overclucker:  i read about gnokii , and it tells you can do everything, but no idea if  there is a good one
[06:39] <overclucker> Nubbie: there's six, i thought there was just mine
[06:39] <p> maybe..
[06:39] <p> is it possible?
[06:39] <ToddED1> nomasteryoda: that command found my phone!
[06:39] <nomasteryoda> cool
[06:39] <hitomaro> MeRodent, yes I switched my onboard video off, it works fine on windows but ubuntu feisty.. not working at all. :(
[06:39] <ToddED1> now is there anything with a GUI that i can use?
[06:40] <hitomaro> Scunizi, I'm using one single monitor at the moment
[06:40] <EviL_SmUrF> is there a specific xvid configuration tool, or do i just need to dig around in VLC to try to find a detail section?
[06:40] <lee__> ok
[06:41] <eyemean> i cant wait till ubuntu 7.10 comes out
[06:41] <Wolf23> overclucker:  let me give you the site that i have read it, http://www.marzocca.net/linux/ubuntux31.html
[06:41] <dystopianray> EviL_SmUrF: VLC has post processing options
[06:41] <lee__> Is Running x right now
[06:41] <overclucker> Wolf23: what kind of backup do you have in mind? a full flash backup? or just ssaving things like contaacts, mms, and photos, or what?
[06:41] <fluid> in winblows i use a little shareware app i bought called Tag&Rename to batch lookup (cddb/cdnow/amazon) audio files and pull in id3/cover/lyric tags...anyone know of a good app to do that in linux? ive looked and looked :(
[06:41] <nomasteryoda> ToddED1, look at ... ToddED1, look at this LQ posting... http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/Hardware/Bluetooth_Transferring_and_receiving_files_under_Ubuntu
[06:41] <ToddED1> Bluez-Gnome
[06:41] <nomasteryoda> for some good info
[06:42] <gogeta> i use mplayer
[06:42] <Wolf23> overclucker:  photos and contacts?
[06:42] <ToddED1> thanks nomasteryoda
[06:42] <nomasteryoda> np
[06:42] <lee__> well I figured out how ti iggy a bit lol
[06:42] <ganesh> all my videos pixelates ..i m playing in movie player
[06:42] <lee__> eh a bot
[06:42] <scipio> fluid, try easytag. it can lookup albums for tags
[06:42] <gogeta> man vlc on my windows box is odd
[06:42] <EviL_SmUrF> man this is so frustrating. i turned post processing up to 6 and restarted vlc. no change
[06:43] <gogeta> otherwise i would tell you
[06:43] <fluid> yeah thats the one i am just finishing installing... Tag&Rename saves me hours and hours of work...id rather not copy this stuff to the windows machine just to tag it though
[06:43] <lee__> this ZynAddSubFx sure kicks the sub wolfers in and is awsome for mucic writing
[06:43] <dystopianray> fluid: does tag&rename not work in wine?
[06:43] <nomasteryoda> fluid,  eyed3
[06:43] <Bosambo> Hay all...is this the place for help in Gutsy?
[06:43] <nomasteryoda> or juk
[06:44] <dystopianray> !gutsy | Bosambo
[06:44] <ubotu> Bosambo: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[06:44] <nomasteryoda> id3v2
[06:44] <nomasteryoda> id3ren
[06:44] <fluid> dystopianray, have not even tried it yet. for some reason i doubt it though. it crashes a lot in windows. lol... when it works though, it works like a champion. lol
[06:44] <gogeta> i dont knoe abought vlc but in m player the qualty can be adjusted
[06:44] <Scunizi> hitomaro, you may have to manually tweek /etc/X11/xorg.conf to get the other card working.  First you'll have to identify it's location, as in buss id and use that. I'm not sure how to do that actually..maybe with "lspci"
[06:44] <nomasteryoda> id3tool
[06:44] <lee__> and thne I run Noation
[06:44] <dystopianray> fluid if you like it so much try it in wine
[06:44] <Bosambo> I know it's not stable..it's just a minor thing, otherwise it's sound for me
[06:44] <nomasteryoda> try one of the ones you find in synaptic or package manager
[06:44] <AlanBShepard70> Can anyone help me get a video card to work with linux? The card is a pci nvidia model. So far dapper, feisty and beta gutsy refuse to work with it
[06:44] <Bosambo> Totem videos embedded in firefox can't play fullscreen
[06:44] <lee__> erg
[06:45] <gogeta> weard ass pc
[06:45] <nomasteryoda> Bosambo, you should use mplayer
[06:45] <MeRodent> AlanBShepard70, what card?
[06:45] <nomasteryoda> it does best job for that
[06:45] <overclucker> Wolf23: cat /boot/config* | grep CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_GENERIC=
[06:45] <Scunizi> hitomaro, then change the driver to nv if it's set to vesa or i810 or intel.  Then install nvidia driver from synaptic.
[06:45] <owen1> dystopianray: gnomebaker gives my this error : media is not recognized as recordable DVD: 9
[06:45] <gogeta> my vlc winhell goes to 100% page and cp usage and hangs
[06:45] <gogeta> but linux no problem
[06:45] <Bosambo> I guessed I'd eventually have to do that...
[06:45] <nomasteryoda> remove all traces of Totem and setup mplayer plugin for mozilla too
[06:45] <nomasteryoda> Bosambo, takes about 5 min
[06:45] <Bamnana> how can I update gnome from 2.18 to 2.20? is it stable? is it safe?
[06:45] <AlanBShepard70> nvidia geforce 64mb. I lost the paper with the exact model, I just need one sec to find it.
[06:45] <ganesh> nomasteryoda: all my videos pixelates ..i m playing in movie player..can u help
[06:46] <lee__> DVD 9?
[06:46] <nomasteryoda> Bamnana, wait on gutsy
[06:46] <fluid> heck this might be a better question. where does mpd get its album cover information when you tell it remote first, then local? i dont see any settings for it.
[06:46] <dystopianray> AlanBShepard70: it doesn't work at all?
[06:46] <gogeta> mplayur

[06:46] <Bamnana> nomasteryoda, what is "gutsy"?
[06:46] <overclucker> Wolf23: ok good
[06:46] <clusty> is there any way of reporting compiz bugs with gutsy?

[06:52] <Psyber> anyone here have experience with KDE?
[06:52] <Scunizi> Psyber, what's the real question?
[06:52] <d1n0> anyone know how i can get extended desktop with ati on a tv?
[06:53] <overclucker> Wolf23: exit and ls -a ~/
[06:53] <ganesh> gogeta:i just reinstalled ubuntu..its not slow...
[06:54] <Psyber> I just installed KDE while I already have gnome and I was wondering if there was a way to remove all of KDE's apps w/out removing KDE... Basically I want to try the KDE interface with gnomes apps
[06:54] <overclucker> Wolf23: was .gnokii there?
[06:54] <user_> I get an error when I shh into another ubuntu on my lan, /usr/bin/X11/xauth:  error in locking authority file /home/user/.Xauthority
[06:54] <gogeta> mutch better
[06:54] <Wolf23> overclucker:  yes .gnokiiirc?
[06:54] <Nubbie> Psyber: KDE is a "desktop environment" which mean K is essentially made up of all the applications it comes with.
[06:54] <gogeta> back to the topic
[06:54] <overclucker> Wolf23: yeah is that there?
[06:54] <gogeta> thers movie mplayer thats relly totam
[06:55] <lee__> ok really want to test your machine?
[06:55] <Wolf23> overclucker:  yes
[06:55] <gogeta> i mean movie player
[06:55] <lee__> ty this sight
[06:55] <lee__> http://lee986321.spaces.live.com/?lc=1033
[06:55] <gogeta> then mplayer  movie player
[06:55] <_0xf> anyone got a D-Link Wireless G USB Adapter WUA-1340 - Network adapter - Hi-Speed USB - 802.11b, 802.11g  working with ubuntu?
[06:55] <lee__> it has all kinds of goodies lol
[06:55] <overclucker> Wolf23: ok, then gedit ~/.gnokiirc
[06:55] <Scunizi> Psyber, if you did a seperate install of kde in its own partition, yes you can remove some.  but even if you don't you can still load and run gnome apps in kde. If you just installed kubuntu-desktop in Ubuntu and switched "sessions" to get to the kde interface.. same thing applies.
[06:55] <user_> /usr/bin/X11/xauth:  error in locking authority file /home/user/.Xauthority
[06:55] <user_>  anyone ??

[07:28] <Flats> The_giver If I remember correctly, i just dl'ed the rpm and used Alien to install it
[07:28] <nnutter> MeRodent: don't be a jerk
[07:28] <dissection> MeRodent: I don't think those keys are correct
[07:28] <dissection> MeRodent: I inserted the #, and then when I press Esc,Esc,X, it deletes the #..
[07:28] <The_Giver> Flats, i tried the alien method but it still didnt work
[07:28] <MeRodent> nnutter, I'm trying to guide dissection through an install I want to know why he doesn't want to save.
[07:28] <nnutter> ok, sorry, jumped in the middle
[07:29] <Flats> The_giver 7.04?
[07:29] <dissection> So I might have messed it up, I wanna exit it without saving, and try again
[07:29] <MeRodent> dissection, did you hit down twice?
[07:29] <dissection> Yeah, I'm on the 3rd line
[07:29] <MeRodent> nnutter, no probs.
[07:29] <WGGMk> is there an IRC for Gusty?
[07:29] <The_Giver> Flats,  no .. heh
[07:29] <Smegzor> I replaced ubuntu 64 bit with the 32 bit version (fiesty).  Its a dual boot with XP and twice now it has failed to install grub.   How do I fix?
[07:29] <dissection> How do I exit vim? I'm stuck
[07:29] <The_Giver> it complains about missing libstc++
[07:29] <n2diy> WGGMk: #ubuntu+1
[07:29] <MeRodent> dissection, i will put you into insert mode so you can enter the #
[07:30] <WGGMk> n2diy: thanks
[07:30] <Flats> vim....Is it :Q?
[07:30] <dissection> MeRodent: I pressed so many other keys to try to exit.. I'm stuck here.. I wanna exit without saving and try again
[07:30] <Flats> or :!q
[07:31] <Flats> dissection :q to quit
[07:31] <Flats> I think :!q to save and quit
[07:31] <jessid> hello. If i need to configure a very small network with 2 pc, what do i need to do? i want to share files between both pc's. thanks
[07:31] <dissection> That didnt work
[07:31] <usr13> :!q     =   loose changes and quit
[07:31] <Flats> hmmm I just tried it
[07:31] <Flats> ahhh
[07:31] <Flats> whoops
[07:32] <Flats> I got the :q right
[07:32] <MeRodent> dissection, <ctrl>z should kill it.
[07:32] <Chriswaterguy> hi - in Xubuntu, is there a way of moving windows without the mouse? Or a way of forcing the title bar to display? I have had trouble trying to change the size of windows, and ended up losing the title bar (the very top part of the window). Now I can "unmaximize" but this is useless as it's still taking up the whole screen and for some reason the mouse won't grab the edges of the window. [I...
[07:32] <Chriswaterguy> ...asked at #Xubuntu but all is quiet there] 
[07:32] <Flats> How do I install my serial driver in etc/modules?
[07:32] <MeRodent> Chriswaterguy, using beryl or compiz?
[07:32] <usr13> Flats: But you have to hit the Esc key first, (to put you back into command mode).
[07:32] <Flats> ahhh yes, your right usr
[07:33] <Flats> I'm trying to remember from my solaris days
[07:33] <jessid> !lan
[07:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lan - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:33] <jessid> !network
[07:33] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:33] <skinnypuppy1334>  How would you open a new Gnome session in terminal ctl alt f2
[07:33] <usr13> Flats: alias
[07:34] <n2diy> jessid: what type of network, wireless?
[07:34] <usr13> Flats: alais module-name
[07:34] <Flats> well if my driver is actually /dev/ttyUSB0 would I put is alias /dev/ttyUSB0?
[07:34] <jessid> n2diy no, the are connected in a wired LAN
[07:34] <dissection> MeRodent: Okay, I'm doing it using pico cause vim is too complicated. Just to make sure, the line I gotta comment out is "install nvidia_legacy /sbin/lrm-video nvidia_legacy $CMDLINE_OPTS", right?
[07:35] <n2diy> jessid: through a router, or crossover cable?
[07:35] <usr13> Flats: /dev/ttyUSB0  is a device file, not a driver module.
[07:35] <jessid> n2diy it is a switch.
[07:35] <MeRodent> dissection, nope. Comment out the install nvidia /sbin/lrm-video nvidia $CMDLINE_OPTS
[07:35] <Flats> how can I find a driver from a device name?
[07:35] <Flats> getting a bit too deep for me now
[07:36] <usr13> Flats, you will need to use the module name, (the module that needs to be loaded into the running kernel that runs the device).
[07:36] <MeRodent> dissection, Ie leave the nvidia_legacy and nvidia_new lines in.
[07:36] <n2diy> jessid: Hmm, never played with a switch, can you ping the switch?
[07:36] <MeRodent> dissection, it shows you how it should look a little later.
[07:36] <usr13> Flats: What driver module have  you installed?
[07:37] <Flats> usr13 I wish I knew.  It's a USB modem
[07:37] <MeRodent> dissection, good news is you are almost there.
[07:37] <Flats> Is there a way to find out
[07:37] <usr13> Flats: If you used the package manager to install a driver module, it will be all set up.  No need to add commands to modules.conf
[07:37] <jessid> n2diy mmm i can ping the other PC
[07:38] <usr13> Flats: If it works now, it will work again on next session.
[07:38] <n2diy> jessid: ahh, so the switch is working, can the other pc ping you?
[07:38] <usr13> if you used the package manager to install it.
[07:38] <Flats> no, no package.  I built a pppd file to run the card.  I want to be able to use it as a modem as my instructions say to just install the serial driver in etc/modules
[07:38] <usr13> usr13: Ubuntu / Debian is very convenient that way.
[07:38] <smultron> anyone here familiar with BackupPC?
[07:39] <Klonoa> Mmm, Firefox question for anyone who might've run into the issue - is there a way to fix the oddball problem of the inability to copy an image to the clipboard?
[07:39] <jessid> n2diy: yes both pc can ping another onet
[07:39] <usr13> Klonoa: Right click on the image and choose "save image as..."
[07:40] <dissection> MeRodent: I tried to start gdm, it said starting gnome display manager  [OK] , but I'm still at the command line, and its not doing anything
[07:40] <DM|> Ok trying to install feisty on an older PC 850 mhz, and keep getting kernel panics, ive tried to install alternate CD and live CD neither work, anyone have an idea?
[07:40] <usr13> wwork around  ...
[07:40] <Klonoa> Yeah, but at the same time that's not a solution to the issue. :\
[07:40] <Klonoa> Why's it an issue in Linux Firefox distributions?
[07:40] <The_Giver> hi
[07:40] <dissection> oooooo it worked after i did gdm restart
[07:40] <The_Giver> how can i change my computers nam e
[07:40] <dissection> and got the nvidia logo
[07:40] <dissection> :D
[07:40] <dissection> :D:D:D:D
[07:41] <MeRodent> dissection, try ctrl atl f7
[07:41] <mikeh> to whom do i talk to find out how to shrink an avi file to fit on a single layer disc when converted to a video dvd file
[07:41] <Flats> usr13 this help at all /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.2/usb3/3-1
[07:41] <cofeineSunshine_> holla
[07:41] <usr13> Klonoa: Not so sure that it is really....
[07:41] <n2diy> jessid: ok, do the boxes have the menu-system-remote desktop option?
[07:41] <Klonoa> Blargh.
[07:41] <MeRodent> dissection, so it's working?
[07:41] <Klonoa> Surely someone must know why it's not there in Linux.
[07:42] <jessid> n2diy yes!
[07:42] <dissection> MeRodent: Yes its working, but I don't know if it'll crash again. Also, when Ubuntu started, it said new restricted drivers are in use. When I clicked on the icon in the system tray to view it, it said I need some other kernel for it
[07:42] <jessid> n2diy but i want to find the other pc using the nautilus...
[07:43] <MeRodent> dissection, I think the new restricted drivers came up the first time for me too but doesn't any more.
[07:43] <n2diy> jessid: good, that is the ticket, you'll have to do some config. Nautilus will play with the remote box, once both boxes are configed.
[07:43] <dissection> MeRodent: Is the nVidia logo supposed to show up only the first time? Or everytime before Ubuntu starts?
[07:43] <MeRodent> dissection, it should show before each start.
[07:44] <dissection> Okay, I'm restarting the system to check it out
[07:44] <MeRodent> dissection, but not when you log out
[07:44] <org_> whats the default torrent program in gnome?
[07:44] <DM|> anyone know how to edit the grub list for a CD that you are burning for an install?
[07:44] <dissection> MeRodent: Okay, its there. Working fine. So is there some kind of nVidia control panel or something that I can get by downloading something? How do I set the 3D settings n everything?
[07:45] <The_Giver> anyway to change my host name... for some reason networking tools are not coming up on the graphnical interface
[07:45] <The_Giver> wtf
[07:45] <The_Giver> =-(
[07:45] <arepie> hello.. i just reformat my ubuntu, the problem is, the first time i install feisty, it detect my ATI card.. but now, it doesn't.. why?
[07:45] <jessid> n2diy ok. So where to go now?
[07:46] <WGGMk> question
[07:46] <n2diy> The_Giver: run the command hostname, check man hostname for the details.
[07:46] <MeRodent> dissection, there's a nvidia x server settings program in system tools but you need to run sudo nvidia-settings to save the settings from console.
[07:46] <n2diy> jessid: configure remote desktop on both machines.
[07:46] <jessid> n2diy ok
[07:47] <MeRodent> dissection, keep in mind if the kernel is updated you may need to go through the instructions again. (I found it didn't happen with one of the kernel updates).
[07:47] <The_Giver> n2diy, cant find it =(
[07:47] <The_Giver> set name doent work
[07:47] <WGGMk> my laptop has a broadcom wlan card. now i have the restricted drivers installed and bcm43xx-fwcutter and its working.. i just dl'ed the new -13 kernel for gusty gibbon.. and i need to use my "reinstall" the driver.. can i use the old files? fromt he -12 kernel?
[07:48] <n2diy> The_Giver: what does the command "hostname" return?
[07:48] <dissection-lappy> MeRodent: Okay, but this kernel issue won't be there with the next version of Ubuntu, right? I mean, nVidia will already be supported without this manual install?
[07:49] <MeRodent> dissection-lappy, I beleive gutsy supports the latest nvidia cards natively.
[07:49] <dissection-lappy> Great
[07:49] <dissection-lappy> Okay, let me check out the nvidia settinsg thing
[07:49] <dissection-lappy> brb
[07:49] <WGGMk> dissection-lappy: Gusty does support the open source version of the nVidia drivers
[07:49] <org_> hey is there a torrent client installed with default gnome???? pls
[07:49] <WGGMk> org_ yes
[07:49] <dissection-lappy> org_: BitTorrent is installed.
[07:50] <arepie> Hello.. i just reformat my ubuntu, the problem is, the first time i install feisty, it detect my ATI card.. but now, it doesn't.. why?
[07:50] <jessid> n2diy what do i have to configure? I know that i can connect to the other using vncviewer dir.ip
[07:51] <org_> dissection, can't find it in menu...
[07:51] <n2diy> jessid: it should be a similiar config, haven't done it in months, so I don't recall it off the top of my head.
[07:51] <MeRodent> dissection, I worked out where your problem with vim was btw.  vi and vim use : (colon) to get to command mode.
[07:51] <comand> Ok, so I just updated my gutsy install, and after installing ~200 packages, the restricted drivers module is 'blocked' -- it shows up in the update manager, but is greyed out, so I can't install it.  This hoses my nvidia drivers -- does anyone know how I can fix this?
[07:51] <org_> WGGMk, whats the name of it? bittorrent isnt there.
[07:51] <_0xf> if i wanna make a small partition where i boot from
[07:51] <dissection> org_: For some reason its disabled from the menu. You can re-enable it using sudo alacarte
[07:51] <_0xf> i just make a /boot
[07:51] <_0xf> right?
[07:51] <jessid> n2diyok
[07:52] <jessid> n2diy ok
[07:52] <dissection> MeRodent: Ah, I thought they were both the same.
[07:52] <WGGMk> org_: oh gezz i dont remember.. lemme hunt for it
[07:52] <Amaranth> dissection: don't need it in the menu, just double click a torrent file
[07:52] <n2diy> jessid:  :) gl
[07:52] <dissection> Amaranth: Sure, but he asked about it not showing up in the menu.
[07:52] <org_> dissection, its not even in my system. When i write bittorrent in terminal, nothing popup
[07:52] <Amaranth> dissection: vim does thing a little different when it's run as 'vi'
[07:52] <MeRodent> !gutsy | comand
[07:52] <ubotu> comand: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[07:53] <comand> uh, yeah -- I know it's unstable
[07:53] <comand> I'm just wondering why the restricted drivers module update would be 'blocked' by update manager?
[07:53] <comand> I need this for my nvidia driver.
[07:53] <org_> comand, yea cause its not out yet. We're all waiting for it.
[07:53] <MeRodent> comand, the point is to ask gutsy questions in #ubuntu+1 as the support for video is different we're unlikely to be able to help
[07:53] <comand> ok
[07:53] <comand> thanks
[07:54] <Amaranth> comand: because the linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-13-generic package is not available yet, boot from the -12 kernel
[07:54] <org_> comand, I have the same exact problem as yours. and it isnt a problem really, its just they are working on it still
[07:54] <WGGMk> org_: the default is BitTorrent. I think someone else might have already said it
[07:54] <dissection> org_: When you want to open a .torrent file, you'll have the option to open it using BitTorrent. Personally, I use deluge
[07:54] <comand> org_: oic
[07:54] <org_> dissection, is deluge a package? I'm trying to installing it, but package is not found.
[07:55] <org_> E: Couldn't find package deluge
[07:55] <dissection> org_: You can find a debian pacakge for it on getdeb.net
[07:55] <jessid> n2diy ok, but what to do now?
[07:55] <Javid> My numlock/scroll lock seem to be turning on and off at random, without me touching anything. This has just been happening today. What the crap?
[07:56] <n2diy> jessid: it should be a similiar config, haven't done it in months, so I don't recall it off the top of my head.
[07:56] <jessid> n2diy mmm ok
[07:57] <org_> dissection, 5.5 is latest?
[07:57] <dissection> 07:57:09AM <org_> dissection, 5.5 is latest?
[07:57] <dissection> oops sorry
[07:57] <dissection> org_: Yes
[07:57] <org_> ah ok, im in gutsy. I can't find one for gutsy >_<
[07:57] <_0xf> if i wanna make a small partition where i boot from
[07:57] <_0xf> right?
[07:57] <_0xf> i just make a /boot
[07:57] <org_> only for feisty is out.
[07:57] <The_Giver> why would ctrl + alt + F1 / F2 not work on ubuntu?
[07:57] <org_> dissection, the thing is, I don't even have BitTorrent the default, does that means my system is screwed?
[07:57] <n2diy> jessid: every install and config is different, so it is impossible to guide you much further, good luck.
[07:58] <org_> The_Giver, it does.
[07:58] <jessid> n2diy thanks a lot
[07:58] <dissection> org_: Did you try opening a .torrent file?
[07:58] <org_> The_Giver, I'd just guess you haven't configure your keyboard settings in the xorg.conf
[07:58] <org_> dissection, I need a GUI Torrent client, you know?
[07:58] <WGGMk> org_: you should have BitTorrent as default.. im running Gusty amd64 right now
[07:58] <org_> WGGMk, I want a GUI program! >_<
[07:58] <dissection> org_: This IS a GUI torrent client.
[07:58] <org_> something like KTorrent
[07:59] <MeRodent> later!
[07:59] <n2diy> org_: so install KTorrent, that will work in Gnome.
[07:59] <The_Giver> org_, what do you mean.. i never had to do that before..
[07:59] <The_Giver> what should i be looking to change or add?
[08:00] <dissection> MeRodent; Is there an app I can download for testing my 3D capabilities?
[08:00] <WGGMk> org_: when you click to save the .torrent file.. choose "Open With.." and your first choice in the drop down box should be "BitTorrent (default)" and that DOES have a GUI
[08:00] <ckin2001> dissection, sometimes you have glxgears by default
[08:00] <org_> WGGMk, but whats the command to run the torrent program, or there isn't any?
[08:01] <WGGMk> org_: double click? right click ---> Open / Open With?? im not sure im following ya
[08:01] <Chriswaterguy> MeRodent: (sorry, doing too many things). beryl or compiz? I don't even know what they are.
[08:01] <jessid> how can i install a FTP server?
[08:01] <MasterShrek> org_, transmission-gtk is a nice client if youre running gnome
[08:02] <Chriswaterguy> MeRodent: pretty standard Xubuntu installation.
[08:02] <tetrach> anyone know where i can get a nvidia driver
[08:02] <org_> master_of_master, <3 finaly someone who understand me :)
[08:02] <n2diy> jessid: don't install ftp, it is not secure.
[08:02] <jessid> mmmm
[08:02] <jessid> ok ok!
[08:02] <magnetron> tetrach: use the "restricted driver manager" it will install the nvidia driver for you
[08:03] <_0xf> im installing ubuntu on my box right now, and i want to use truecrypt to encrypt an entire partition. but u cant encrypt a disk u boot from, so i wanna boot from a small spartition, do i just create /boot
[08:03] <magnetron> tetrach: "restricted driver manager" will both download and install drivers for you
[08:03] <n2diy> jessid: read up on man stp, ssh, etc...
[08:03] <MasterShrek> org_, its MasterShrek =P
[08:03] <jessid> n2diy ok thanks
[08:03] <n2diy> *stp/scp
[08:03] <_0xf> ansyone?
[08:04] <tetrach> magnetron: tks
[08:04] <_0xf> anyone help me.?
[08:04] <jearsh> sup _0xf?
[08:05] <_0xf> im installing ubuntu on my box right now, and i want to use truecrypt to encrypt an entire partition. but u cant encrypt a disk u boot from, so i wanna boot from a small spartition, do i just create /boot
[08:05] <_0xf> and if so how big would it have to be
[08:05] <jearsh> well...i'm no expert...but yea, i would have a separate partition for the kernel...and have the other partitions encrypted
[08:06] <_0xf> so /boot / and /hda
[08:06] <Invert314> is there such thing as a CLI word processor?
[08:06] <jearsh> u mean... /boot / /swap
[08:06] <n2diy> Invert314: nano
[08:06] <jearsh> Invert314, what about vi?
[08:06] <ines> angel88
[08:06] <jearsh> or nano
[08:06] <jearsh> etc
[08:07] <Irreducibilis> Is there a way to integrate an installation of Damn small linux onto my partition of Ubuntu?
[08:07] <_0xf> /boot /swap / and /hda
[08:07] <rocky_> Hi every one I have a dell 5100 inspiron and i want to know what kinda software and driver i need and where i can download it to beryl?
[08:07] <_0xf> hda root and swap will be encrypted
[08:07] <_0xf> i guess
[08:07] <_0xf> how big should hte .boot be
[08:07] <MasterShrek> Irreducibilis, what do you mean "integrate"?
[08:07] <jearsh> kk
[08:07] <magnetron> Invert314: you could use a text editor (vim, nano) , and possibly add a formatting language (LaTeX)
[08:07] <_0xf> /boot
[08:07] <jearsh> _0xf, my boot is 32.8 ...so i would guess 40ish
[08:07] <_0xf> gigs?
[08:07] <jearsh> 32.8mb **
[08:08] <_0xf> lol ok
[08:08] <jearsh> =p
[08:08] <n2diy> MasterShrek: good guestion! ;)
[08:08] <Invert314> ty n2diy, jearsh + magnetron
[08:08] <jearsh> mmhm
[08:08] <hhp2k> Hey everyone :)
[08:08] <MasterShrek> !virtualbox | Irreducibilis
[08:08] <ubotu> Irreducibilis: VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software for x86, with a proprietary "enterprise" version sporting additional features. Packages for Ubuntu are provided by the makers at http://www.virtualbox.org/ - Setup details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VirtualBox
[08:08] <Irreducibilis> Like, having grub display both installations, if I choose to, so I can just select which distro of linux
[08:08] <MasterShrek> yes of course Irreducibilis, just edit your /boot/grub/menu.list
[08:08] <Irreducibilis> I am thinking of formatting and installing as many different distros as possible
[08:08] <hhp2k> I'm trying to configure a screensaver pack, and it's giving me problems. It's outputting
[08:09] <hhp2k> checking for X11 application defaults directory... not found
[08:09] <hhp2k> configure: error: try using the --with-defaultdir=DIR option
[08:09] <MasterShrek> Irreducibilis, take a look at that link ubotu gave u, it may be a better idea
[08:09] <hhp2k> What do I do for that?
[08:09] <Irreducibilis> mkay
[08:09] <Irreducibilis> thanks
[08:09] <MasterShrek> yup
[08:09] <jaek_> is the restricted nvidia driver supposed to work in gusty?
[08:10] <MasterShrek> jaek_, #ubuntu+1, but yes
[08:10] <hazman> jaek_:  it works on mine
[08:10] <MasterShrek> it does, at least the one from nvidia's site works for me
[08:10] <magnetron> !gutsy > jaek_
[08:10] <WGGMk> jaek_: works fine here too
[08:10] <jaek_> cool thanks, i'll start hanging out in +1
[08:11] <dissection> Which repo do I need to enable in order to install beryl?
[08:11] <MasterShrek> jaek_, if you just upgraded to gutsy, try reinstalling the driver
[08:11] <jaek_> dissection, search the wiki for compiz fusion
[08:11] <MasterShrek> dissection, youd be better off waiting for gutsy to be released and use fusion
[08:11] <rocky_> any one get idea of what driver i could sue
[08:11] <rocky_> use
[08:11] <MasterShrek> its only 12 days out or so
[08:11] <WGGMk> jaek_: you shouldnt need to install the package from nVidia.. Gusty should do it for you
[08:11] <MasterShrek> rocky_, for what?
[08:12] <dissection> MasterShrek: Okay, then can I install anything else to test my 3D performance?
[08:12] <rocky_> so i could use beryl
[08:12] <MasterShrek> rocky_, what kind of graphics card do you have?
[08:12] <wedderburn> when are the linux-backports-modules-2.6.22-13-generic for gutsy going to be available, thanks.
[08:12] <jaek_> WGGMk, right... i have it installed but i cant get it to work
[08:12] <dystopianray> wedderburn: gutsy support only in #ubuntu+1
[08:12] <rocky_> im not so sure i have to find out
[08:12] <MasterShrek> dissection, glxgears will give u framerates, but im not sure really waht there is out there for 3d performance benchmarking
[08:12] <rocky_> but its from dell
[08:13] <wedderburn> dystopianray: will do thanks
[08:13] <dystopianray> dissection: benchmark your 3d performance by testing applications you actually use
[08:13] <MasterShrek> rocky_, take a look at the output of lspci -vv, it will tell you
[08:13] <Smegzor> I repaired grub but there is no menu.lst  How do I force it to make one?
[08:13] <dissection> MasterShrek: glxgears is very basic.
[08:13] <ckin2001> dissection, sauerbraten is a good one (spelling?)
[08:13] <dissection> okay.
[08:13] <rocky_> ok
[08:13] <dystopianray> glxgears is not a benchmark
[08:14] <MasterShrek> im aware
[08:14] <nonecant> nonecant
[08:14] <nonecant> hey whats up
[08:15] <Evolution2> hey guys
[08:15] <rocky_> the driver is MemWINV+ VGASnoop
[08:15] <dystopianray> rocky_: you're trying to identify your video card?
[08:15] <dystopianray> rocky_: just run lspci and it'll tell you
[08:16] <rocky_> and im use a max hard drive
[08:16] <rocky_> ok
[08:16] <Evolution2> i would like to reinstall gnome because i keep getting errors when i open administration windows. i also have Kubuntu installed in the same partition. is there a way to reinstall it good as new, and if so would it effect anything i have in KDE
[08:16] <n2diy> dystopianray: rocky_, lshw might help also.
[08:16] <jdiamond> Does anybody know how to get an external USB drive to automatically re-mount after rebooting without having to unplug it and plug it back in again?
[08:16] <dystopianray> lspci is easier
[08:17] <n2diy> only if it is on the pci bus
[08:17] <ckin2001> jdiamond, couldn't you add an entry to /etc/fstab for the usb drive?
[08:18] <Smegzor> Can someone please help me fix grub?  Ubuntu 7.04(32bit) install cd broke it and I'm stuck using a live cd (knoppix).
[08:18] <dystopianray> what video cards aren't on the pci bus?
[08:18] <The_Giver> how do enable the multiverse and universe?
[08:18] <dystopianray> The_Giver: they are enabled by default in feisty
[08:18] <The_Giver> i tried the /etc/  ... list  but that didnt work.. i know there is a GUI way but i forgot
[08:18] <The_Giver> dystopianray,  i disabled them a while back
[08:18] <Flannel> The_Giver: in software sources/properties, there are check boxes
[08:18] <n2diy> dystopianray: most of mine, 96 hardware.
[08:18] <jdiamond> ckin2001: I'll try looking that up.
[08:19] <The_Giver> Flannel,  hmm??? System -> admin ->??
[08:19] <Smegzor> Is lilo less trouble than grub?
[08:19] <The_Giver> oh i see it thanks
[08:19] <Flannel> The_Giver: System > Admin > Software Properties (or Software Sources)
[08:19] <dystopianray> The_Giver: /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:19] <dystopianray> Smegzor: hell no
[08:19] <n2diy> dystopianray: correction,  this one is listed.
[08:20] <nir0> hi all! how do i turn off brightness control? it's broken to me, and when i work from battery it darkens display down to 0 :(((
[08:20] <Smegzor> so how do I get grub to make menu.lst?  I have no idea why it didn't.
[08:20] <dystopianray> nir0: you can't increase it?
[08:20] <nir0> it's since gusty installed
[08:20] <Smegzor> I have a working grub with no boot instructions atm
[08:20] <dystopianray> nir0: gutsy support in #ubuntu+1 only
[08:20] <nir0> dystopianray when i trying increase it, it decreases
[08:21] <nir0> dystopianray thanx
[08:21] <rocky_> ok Im my video card is a VGA  but my ubuntu is in my driver=usb-storage
[08:22] <dystopianray> rocky_: what video card do you have?
[08:22] <Smegzor> I reinstalled ubuntu twice and it failed to properly install grub twice.
[08:22] <dystopianray> Smegzor: do you have boot record virus protection (or similar) enabled in your bios?
[08:22] <Smegzor> don't know.  I'll have to reboot to find out ^^
[08:22] <n2diy> Smegzor: is it a Dell?
[08:23] <Smegzor> not a Hell
[08:23] <dystopianray> dells are great
[08:23] <Smegzor> lies
[08:23] <n2diy> Smegzor: Good, and good luck.
[08:23] <dimych> Hello everyone! What if a program does not start (it says "error while loading shared libraries: libglitz.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"), but ldd <program> does not show libglitz at all? How is it possible?
[08:23] <Smegzor> brb  rebooting :/
[08:24] <ckin2001> i have a dell in my garage so i don't pull too far forward
[08:24] <FatalError> dimych, perhaps the program uses dlopen() and prints the error?
[08:25] <dimych> FatalError, let me check
[08:25] <rocky_> ok its ATI driver
[08:25] <dystopianray> rocky_: what specific card do you have?
[08:26] <dimych> FatalError, strings <program>|grep glitz does shows nothing.. How else can I check? In sources?
[08:27] <dystopianray> yes check the source
[08:27] <dissection2> So it seems the problem was not with the video driver. My Ubuntu froze again.
[08:27] <Javid> My numlock keeps switching on and off. Is there anything I can do about this?
[08:27] <dystopianray> Javid: it does it randomly?
[08:27] <Javid> yes
[08:28] <gonzoism> Javid that is odd.
[08:28] <FatalError> dimych, an easier approach may be to just install the missing library
[08:28] <Javid> same with scroll lock
[08:28] <magnetron> i was thinking of installing xubuntu on a 32 MB ram laptop. is this doable?
[08:28] <ckin2001> javid, any other keys acting funny?
[08:28] <Javid> I wouldn't care except this is a laptop
[08:28] <Javid> nope
[08:28] <magnetron> !enter
[08:28] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:28] <dystopianray> magnetron: probably not
[08:28] <Javid> sometimes it'll stick on and I can push the button to turn it off and it just turns back on again
[08:28] <gonzoism> my brother was working on a site and it went live this week. http://www.crowdfunder.com   i'm proud.  he does work for facebook too.
[08:29] <FatalError> dimond, but if you are really bent on finding out you could use LD_PRELOAD to hijack the dlopen() call ;P
[08:29] <FatalError> er
[08:29] <dystopianray> gonzoism: we don't want your spam
[08:29] <FatalError> dimych
[08:29] <rocky_> ati Mobility 7500 128mb
[08:29] <dissection2> Please help. My Ubuntu froze, and Ctrl+Alt+F1 is not sending me into the command line. But my nick on irssi still has a ping reply so some apps are still running properly.
[08:29] <gonzoism> dystopianray yeah, i know.
[08:29] <rocky_> is that right?
[08:29] <xjkx> booting ubuntu 7.04 livecd i had an error like no such user/module layer or something wtf
[08:29] <dimych> FatalError, I'm trying to troubleshoot a customer's issue, somehow the program runs on my system, but not on their's. And both systems have libglitz1 installed...
[08:29] <dystopianray> rocky_: you are the only one who can be sure
[08:30] <rocky_> yes thats the one Mobility 7500 ati 128mb
[08:30] <dystopianray> magnetron: you'd probably want something really minimal, like damn small linux
[08:31] <beekur> maaahn, i installed 7.10 beta and it went on fine and my first act was to install nvidia-glx and then i ran the config, and restarted my X, but it doesnt boot right.  I went back to the old xorg.conf.  Still doesnt boot.  I uninstalled nvidia-glx.  still wont boot.
[08:31] <dystopianray> beekur: gutsy support only in #ubuntu+1
[08:31] <beekur> it's not looking like a good ubuntu experience today.
[08:31] <magnetron> dystopianray: ok, thank you
[08:31] <beekur> oh im not really looking for support.
[08:31] <ardin> ok, i've got 2 questions, but only one that really  matters to me right now. Why is my computer idling at 30% CPU usage. slack idled with the same stuff running at 5%.
[08:31] <beekur> just sympathy, i guess.
[08:31] <FatalError> dimych, you can use strace to find out where it's looking
[08:31] <beekur> but thank you.
[08:31] <dystopianray> this isn't the place to discuss gutsy
[08:31] <dissection2> Anyone know the problem? My Ubuntu freezes like 5 to 10 times atleast, everyday
[08:32] <dystopianray> ardin: use top to see what processes are using the most cpu
[08:32] <gonzoism> magnetron slackware is good for older boxes.  also mepis has antiX.  you might have to play with it to install on anything less than 64mb but i bet it would run fine.  it has X on it, even though it is called antiX.
[08:32] <gogeta> s;ackware
[08:32] <nasc> czesc
[08:32] <gogeta> works

[08:33] <rocky_> what could I do to get my beryl working again?
[08:33] <CaptainMorgan> !temperature
[08:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about temperature - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:33] <gogeta> trust me
[08:33] <nasc> sa tutaj jacys polacy ?
[08:33] <CaptainMorgan> possible to monitor systems temps and speeds ?
[08:33] <magnetron> !pl | nasc
[08:33] <ubotu> nasc: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[08:33] <dimych> FatalError, thanks for the tip. I will try strace.
[08:33] <dystopianray> CaptainMorgan: fan speeds?
[08:33] <dissection2> Anyone know the problem? My Ubuntu freezes like 5 to 10 times atleast, everyday
[08:33] <CaptainMorgan> dystopianray, that too
[08:33] <J-23> ja
[08:33] <J-23> :p
[08:33] <gonzoism> magnetron there is also www.linuxfromscratch.com   when i was on 32 mb with a 73mhz intel, linuxfromscratch ran great after i got it all installed.  and i learned a /whole lot/ about linux doing it.
[08:33] <dystopianray> CaptainMorgan: what speed were you talking about?
[08:33] <J-23> tak, na #ubuntu-pl se id
[08:34] <CaptainMorgan> dystopianray, any!
[08:34] <magnetron> gonzoism: oh, great
[08:34] <dystopianray> CaptainMorgan: be more specific
[08:34] <magnetron> gonzoism: will take a lifetime to install all the apps i guess
[08:34] <dissection2> :(
[08:35] <gogeta> not relly
[08:35] <gogeta> i have a old m2 cyrax and 333mhz
[08:35] <gogeta> run linux fine
[08:35] <gogeta> not my primay box anymore thow
[08:35] <ardin> xorg's taking up like, 10-15% all the time.. that doesnt seem right
[08:36] <gogeta> with compiz it does
[08:36] <dystopianray> ardin: what video card do you have?
[08:36] <gonzoism> magnetron doing linuxfromscratch would take me about 2 weeks to get a complete system with everything i needed and the majority of the stuff fine tuned.
[08:36] <dimych> dissection2, did you try ither system n the same PC?
[08:36] <gonzoism> magnetron but i was experienced and going through that stuff fast.
[08:36] <magnetron> gonzoism: gah
[08:36] <ardin> nvidia, running the nvidia drivers. and i dont have compiz running
[08:36] <FatalError> dimond, also, they can try adding the path where the library is installed to LD_LIBRARY_PATH (if that works, then /etc/ld.so.conf might need updated)
[08:36] <FatalError> arg
[08:36] <gonzoism> magnetron   oh hey.  there is another way....
[08:36] <FatalError> dimych
[08:36] <dissection2> dimych Try what?
[08:36] <dystopianray> ardin: what else is consuming the cpu?
[08:36] <gonzoism> what is that distro with the emerge package system ?
[08:36] <gogeta> my cryx m2 runs ubuntu hehe
[08:36] <dystopianray> gonzoism: gentoo
[08:37] <gogeta> but i did change the window manage to xfce
[08:37] <magnetron> gonzoism: gentoo
[08:37] <dimych> FatalError, exactly, I will check that too, thanks!
[08:37] <gonzoism> magnetron gentoo would probably be the perfect one for it.
[08:37] <gogeta> text mode any distro will work
[08:37] <ardin> honestly, thats the thing thats taking up the most. and i know for a fact on slack12 it didnt take up that much. i'm running xfce as the manager
[08:37] <dimych> dissection2, I meant "other", sorry
[08:37] <dissection2> 08:36:13AM <dimych> dissection2, did you try ither system n the same PC?
[08:37] <gonzoism> magnetron but slack only requires 8mb i think.
[08:37] <magnetron> gonzoism: yeah, but i need X
[08:37] <ardin> 16 actually
[08:37] <dissection2> dimych: I don't understand.. other what?
[08:38] <gogeta> yea you just need to change x to a lighter mode to work on older pcs
[08:38] <dissection2> My Ubuntu is freezing
[08:38] <dimych> dissection2, other linux or even windows
[08:38] <gogeta> i had a 406 running fluxbox
[08:38] <dissection2> dimych: Yes, its only Ubuntu that is freezing
[08:38] <gogeta> 16 mb
[08:38] <dimych> dissection2, my Ubuntu was rebooting (crashing), but it turned out to be a motherboard defect.
[08:39] <gonzoism> magnetron slackware has X  so does gentoo.
[08:39] <gogeta> x needs at least 8mb ram to run
[08:39] <gogeta> you got that it will run on any pc
[08:39] <gogeta> less then 8mb you in text only
[08:39] <JesseW> anyone have any pointers on dealing with a barely supported onboard intel graphics system (specifically, 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G] /GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device)?
[08:40] <dissection2> dimych:I ran XP for like 40 days without a problem. Ubuntu freezes atleast 10 times everyday
[08:40] <gogeta> iv done plenty of legicy pcs and linux
[08:41] <dimych> dissection2, sorry, have to go.. no ideas so far.
[08:41] <gogeta> dissction2?
[08:41] <gonzoism> gogeta X will run on 4mb.
[08:41] <dissection2> :(
[08:41] <gogeta> well it
[08:41] <gonzoism> gogeta lol, yep.
[08:41] <dissection2> gogeta: Yes?
[08:41] <magnetron> dissection2: you may have an irq conflict. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingIRQProblems
[08:41] <gogeta> you shure its not the video locking up
[08:42] <gogeta> nivida oss driver are great for that
[08:42] <possgeek> Hi, Any body knows how can I have an openSuSE like start menu in ubuntu? http://news.opensuse.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/gnome-desktop.png
[08:42] <Klonoa> I think Gimmie has something like that.
[08:42] <Klonoa> Not sure how stable it is.
[08:43] <gonzoism> possgeek yes.  there is a how to for that.  google the ubuntu howto.  it will be #1 result.  search that page for it.
[08:43] <possgeek> gonzoism: how to ubuntu gimmie ?
[08:43] <Javid> Is there a way to disable numlock status entirely+
[08:44] <gonzoism> possgeek man gimmie
[08:44] <Javid> ?
[08:44] <dissection2> magnetron: When I start the PC, I do get an unable to allocate memory resource error right before Ubuntu loads but I had been ignoring it.
[08:44] <possgeek> ok
[08:44] <gonzoism> possgeek man gimmie
[08:44] <gonzoism> oops
[08:45] <TtyS2> i have installed php and apache but firefox wont open php files, it ask about what prog it should be open in, any one know a url to a manual about what else to do
[08:45] <magnetron> dissection2: do a memtest at startup and see if it finds something
[08:45] <mindrape> TtyS2 - you need to update your httpd.conf so it knows what to do with .php requests
[08:46] <mindrape> TtyS2 - ask in #PHP they will know exactly how to fix it I bet.  :)
[08:46] <indraveni> hi all
[08:46] <jiju> hi all need help;
[08:46] <gogeta> im thibnking video
[08:46] <TtyS2> thanks
[08:46] <jiju> files list file for package `libssl0.9.8' contains empty filename
[08:46] <gogeta> i had a ati that was a champ at locking up my system
[08:46] <jiju> i m trying apt-get upgrade.. and it errors
[08:46] <indraveni> in my firefox browser, i am seeing that one of my site, which uses hindi font is not dipalying the hindi font properly inside the combobox
[08:46] <jiju> files list file for package `libssl0.9.8' contains empty filename
[08:47] <indraveni> whereas, in IE I am not facing any such problem in for combobox content
[08:47] <indraveni> why is this case only for firefox ?
[08:47] <gonzoism> jiju  maybe apt-get update first.
[08:48] <jiju> hi.. i did apt-get update.. already..
[08:48] <gonzoism> jiju   you have to sudo that though:  sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade
[08:48] <jiju> sure.. I usually do sudo -i first..
[08:49] <gonzoism> jiju if you want to delete the package, so that it gets downloaded again, you can go to /var/cache/apt/archives/  and delete the package and try it again.
[08:49] <jiju> will try that now..
[08:50] <_0xf> Can anyone help me with installation of dlink usb wirelss on ubuntu
[08:52] <gonzoism> _0xf run: sudo wifi-radar
[08:54] <rommelhc> how install codec to view .wma videos ?!
[08:55] <gogeta> ubuntu should do it for you
[08:56] <magnetron> rommelhc: install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package
[08:56] <dissection2> magnetron: I'm running the memtest now. Under L2 cache, it says Unknown. Is that a problem?
[08:56] <gogeta> err
[08:56] <magnetron> dissection2: i don't know
[08:56] <jiju> well gonzoism: I did exactly the same.. and the same error again
[08:56] <rommelhc> magnetron, whit apt-get ?
[08:56] <gogeta> defently not good
[08:56] <gogeta> unknown error or just unknown
[08:57] <ardin> ok, heres one for you guys. AC3 audio takes up a ton of cpu when trying to watch a movie or a tv show.. to the point where i cant watch it cause the video skips. i dont know if theres a better ac3 driver or what
[08:57] <gogeta> mplayer ownez you
[08:57] <magnetron> rommelhc: yes, apt-get, synaptic or applications > add/remove
[08:57] <ardin> yeah, i was using mplayer
[08:57] <J-23> or Aptitude ;)
[08:57] <gogeta> i was just watching mplayer with h264 aac
[08:58] <gogeta> cant get any more cpu intensiv ten that
[08:58] <gogeta> no problem
[08:58] <gogeta> shure your pc not just weak hehe
[08:58] <rommelhc> magnetron, ok thanks..
[08:58] <ardin> gogeta: i have a 1.2ghz athlon. however, they worked fine on windows with no problems, i dont see why i have this problem on linux. i know its not the video driver or the video codec
[08:58] <gogeta> weak
[08:59] <gogeta> you can try turning on the post prossing and buffer
[08:59] <gogeta> might fix it
[09:00] <gogeta> i also enables the dubble buffer and direct rendering
[09:00] <rommelhc> magnetron, can i view videos in sites with mozilla ? because i dont see videos, i try all :/
[09:00] <gogeta> and change the driver from x11 to xv
[09:00] <jiju> hmm.. I am almost on the verge of a reinstall..
[09:00] <magnetron> rommelhc: the ubuntu-restricted-extras package will fix that too
[09:00] <gogeta> see how that setup treats you
[09:00] <jiju> and this time.. I may have to think twice.. before installing ubuntu
[09:01] <gogeta> i havent gotten to you yet lol
[09:01] <anto_> Uhm, how on earth do i change my god dam ugly login screen?
[09:01] <gogeta> jiju
[09:01] <gogeta> waddup
[09:01] <jiju> i am in a fix..
[09:01] <ardin> "enable postprocessing by default" quality: "#"
[09:01] <gogeta> !splash
[09:01] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[09:01] <jiju> cant install anything  till  files list file for package `libssl0.9.8' contains empty filename, this error goes away
[09:02] <rommelhc> hahaha magnetron great perfect !
[09:02] <rommelhc> thanks ! magnetron
[09:02] <rommelhc> =) a lot
[09:03] <gogeta> ardin well changing the video to xv and using direct rendering should help
[09:03] <The_Giver> how do update an old program to the latest version via sudo-apt get install  vim ... do i do somethign like update install
[09:03] <gogeta> you will need to restart mplayer after then try the vid
[09:04] <Klonoa> Eh, I'ma take off, but I'll throw out the question one more time to be safe.
[09:04] <Klonoa> Anyone know how to enable "Copy Image to Clipboard" in Firefox?
[09:04] <ardin> gogeta: video's always been on xv. its the audio that i'm having problems with. like i said, i never had problems with it on windows. i just need something that changes the settings for ac3 or something
[09:04] <Klonoa> It's like, not in the Linux version. >_<
[09:04] <Klonoa> Yet Opera has it.
[09:04] <gogeta> then disable the post prossing
[09:04] <gogeta> if it was on
[09:04] <rommelhc> The_Giver, sudo apt-get install "progam", it subscribe for new version
[09:04] <gogeta> sometimes it works sometimes it can be a issue
[09:05] <gogeta> might be getting cought up in the buffer
[09:05] <gogeta> i do not have this issue i play ac3 no problem
[09:05] <gogeta> and aac
[09:06] <The_Giver> kool
[09:07] <gogeta> might be a mplayer issue on slower pcs try using vlc meda player
[09:07] <gogeta> blaming the driver isnt always correct
[09:08] <Coded1> what model of video card is ok for under 100$?  i was looking for a bit of 3d desktop
[09:08] <ardin> already tried vlc, it has the same problems.
[09:08] <gogeta> nividas have the best drivers for linux
[09:09] <Coded1> i heard about ati releasing specs, has any thing come of that?
[09:09] <gogeta> the fatest gforce you can find in that price range
[09:09] <gogeta> not yet
[09:09] <gogeta> is coing thow
[09:09] <gogeta> coming
[09:09] <gogeta> if you dead set on ati then a xt serise readion
[09:10] <Coded1> they only released the specs for the r500 series i think?

[09:23] <Sh4wn> oh
[09:23] <gogeta> you can try to reconfigure x
[09:23] <Sh4wn> What should I change?
[09:23] <gogeta> then reenable the driver
[09:23] <gogeta> you can use a guided mode
[09:24] <dissection2> How many tests is memtest86+ supposed to do?
[09:24] <gogeta> dpkg recofigure xserver-xorg
[09:24] <Sh4wn> ok
[09:24] <gogeta> dont forget sudo
[09:24] <Coded1> whats the cheapest apg card that will give me dual head spinning cubes?
[09:24] <Sh4wn> I'll try that
[09:24] <gogeta> might have to use vesa for now

[09:24] <gogeta> then reenable the video drivers
[09:25] <anto_> Heya, how do i change the slash screen on my computer when i try and use kdmtheme it says its not a valid slash theme but i downloaded it from www.kde-look.org
[09:25] <Sontaxh> Hey
[09:25] <Sh4wn> Yeah it can't detect my graphic card so it already uses vesa
[09:25] <gogeta> hey!
[09:25] <Sontaxh> im running new kernel now
[09:25] <crazy6> so what should I use to read .doc files? OpenOffice is so... huge and slow...
[09:25] <Sontaxh> but now it says ubuntu is running in low graphics mode
[09:25] <tux78> how do i go about fixin daper drake all it wants to do is reboot reboot
[09:25] <gogeta> well you have a ui so go to the manager
[09:25] <gogeta> and enable the card
[09:25] <Sontaxh> No it says that while booting
[09:25] <n2diy> dissection2: I don't know, but it seems to like to run forever. I'f you aren't seeing alarms, your probably good to go after an hour or two?
[09:25] <undauntedspirit> Hey guys, I'm trying to label a flash drive formatted with FAT32, anyway to do that without reformatting it and adding the label then?
[09:26] <Sontaxh> Running local boot scripts
[09:26] <gogeta> sounds like it does no have a driver for your card in the oss mode
[09:26] <Sontaxh> Than it pops up
[09:26] <Bossmanbeta> ..when i try to ssh from 1 ubuntu box to the other with the dynamic option on (i.e. -D 9500) I get this error when trying to browse via socks proxy "open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed" ... interestingly the AllowTcpForwarding was NOT in my sshd_config, even when I added it & restarted ssh, still getting the same error.
[09:26] <gogeta> must be a newer card
[09:26] <Sontaxh> i have an 7300go in it
[09:26] <Sontaxh> yea i think im in now
[09:27] <Sontaxh> i pressed configure and select my card
[09:27] <gogeta> heh
[09:27] <dissection2> n2diy: Its been running from the past 40 minutes. It doesnt say anything about how many tests it'll run. I get an "Unable to allocate memory resource error" when before Ubuntu loads..
[09:28] <n2diy> dissection2: is memtest displaying red messages?
[09:28] <alecwh> I'm having some problems with a new fiesty install. For some reason, no matter what I do, I can't access any websites, or IM networks. It's really odd, and I am connected to my network, in fact, I installed many updates and installed many programs from the internet, but I can't accesss websites. I tried "ping google.com", and I got a few responses, I took the IP, and that worked perfectly in my  browser. Can someone help?
[09:28] <dissection2> n2diy: None so far
[09:28] <dystopianray> undauntedspirit: i'm pretty sure the mtools package has something you can use to label fat partitions
[09:28] <Bossmanbeta> ..when i try to ssh from 1 ubuntu box to the other with the dynamic option on (i.e. -D 9500) I get this error when trying to browse via socks proxy "open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed" ... interestingly the AllowTcpForwarding was NOT in my sshd_config, even when I added it & restarted ssh, still getting the same error. Any ideas?
[09:28] <n2diy> dissection2: then it isn't finding ram errors.
[09:28] <dissection> Hrm
[09:28] <undauntedspirit> dystopianray: Yeah, I've been reading through the man pages, but still can't figure it out.
[09:29] <dystopianray> alecwh: it works when you specify the IP but now when you specify the domain?
[09:29] <alecwh> dystopianray: yeah. Weird, I konw. And I can't get on MSN or AIM.
[09:29] <dystopianray> alecwh: there is something wrong with your DNS
[09:29] <dissection> n2diy: Any idea what else could be causing those errors before Ubuntu loads? I can't seem to find anything..
[09:29] <alecwh> dystopianray: I've got 3 other computers in the house working perfectly.
[09:30] <dystopianray> alecwh: check the dns settings
[09:30] <alecwh> where?
[09:30] <dystopianray> alecwh: /etc/resolv.conf lists the nameservers your machine is using, compare to the other machines
[09:30] <n2diy> dissection2: try booting with the nodma switch.
[09:31] <alecwh> dystopianray: Ill try.
[09:31] <Sontaxh> wtf
[09:31] <Sh4wn> Sontaxh I've exactly the same
[09:31] <Sontaxh> when i try to open the restriced drivers
[09:31] <Sontaxh> it says i need to isntall in for the new kernell\
[09:31] <dissection> n2diy: What does that do? And how do I do that?
[09:31] <dystopianray> Sontaxh: what kernel are you using?
[09:32] <Sontaxh> the new 1 i think
[09:32] <Sontaxh> 2.6.22-13
[09:32] <dystopianray> Sontaxh: gutsy support only in #ubuntu+1
[09:32] <alecwh> dystopianray: I just compared them, and they are exactly the same.
[09:32] <Sh4wn> Ok, I'll join that one :')
[09:33] <dystopianray> alecwh: are the other machines running ubuntu?
[09:33] <alecwh> yes, except the one that is having problems is gusty
[09:33] <dystopianray> alecwh: gutsy support only in #ubuntu+1
[09:34] <n2diy> dissection2: dma is direct memory access, so your perphirals can't control it. I forget how to employ it, I haven't done an install in over a year! Someone here should be able to tell you? When your booting the CD, you should have boot options with F2, F3, etc...
[09:34] <dissection> n2diy: I have Ubuntu installed already
[09:35] <n2diy> dissection2: Did you add new hardware recently?
[09:35] <dissection> n2diy: No, its a laptop.
[09:35] <dissection> I installed Ubuntu just 2 days ago
[09:35] <n2diy> dissection2: Did Ubuntu ever work on the laptop?
[09:36] <dissection> It works but freezes at random times
[09:36] <majnoon> hi hi ,i'm upgrading to gutsy (so far so good) WISH ME LUCK
[09:37] <dystopianray> majnoon: you won't receive gutsy support in this room
[09:37] <n2diy> I plan to live forever, so far so good, wish me luck! :)
[09:38] <majnoon> after around the 15th i WILL
[09:38] <dystopianray> 18th is the planned release date AFAIK
[09:38] <majnoon> i said AROUND
[09:38] <n2diy> dissection2: No errors during the install?
[09:38] <Pirate_Hunter> which file must I edit to increase boot time in grub?
[09:38] <coreymon77> wow
[09:39] <dissection> n2diy: Nope, no errors.
[09:39] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:39] <Pirate_Hunter> :) thanx
[09:39] <coreymon77> for some reason im still awake at 3;40 in the morning
[09:39] <majnoon> plus unstable in ANY linux is like only TWENTY times more stable then windows :)
[09:39] <coreymon77> and on irc fir that matter
[09:39] <coreymon77> maniacmusician: only twenty
[09:39] <coreymon77> ?
[09:39] <n2diy> dissection2: Can you boot into a terminal?
[09:40] <majnoon> stable like 200 times more stable
[09:40] <dissection> n2diy: My Ubuntu works fine, so I can go into Terminal anytime. Just that it freezes randomly. Sometimes an hour after I boot, sometimes, 10 hours later, sometimes several times a n hour
[09:40] <n2diy> coreymon77: your clock is fast.
[09:40] <dissection> *an
[09:40] <coreymon77> majnoon: only
[09:41] <coreymon77> n2diy: nope
[09:41] <majnoon> even 5 times more sttable would be LARGE jump
[09:41] <Pirate_Hunter> if i use sudo bash and want to go back to normal user again what is the command for that?
[09:41] <coreymon77> n2diy: im just wierd
[09:41] <n2diy> coreymon77: ok, maybe I'm slow, 13:41 now
[09:42] <majnoon> upgrade slowing my puter som
[09:42] <dystopianray> Pirate_Hunter: 'exit' or press ctrl+d
[09:42] <dissection> Pirate_Hunter : exit
[09:42] <coreymon77> n2diy: its called time zones
[09:42] <majnoon> Sat Oct  6 03:42:32 EDT 2007
[09:42] <n2diy> coreymon77: no, time zones don't differ by five minutes.
[09:42] <majnoon> <<has *buntu
[09:42] <coreymon77> exactly
[09:43] <murlidhar> i want install lh-abc torrent client . can anybody help me install the client since it does not have a binary package
[09:43] <Pirate_Hunter> dissection: doesnt that still keep your pass save meaning others can log in by typing sudo bash 0_o???
[09:43] <coreymon77> n2diy: im talking AM bere
[09:43] <dystopianray> murlidhar: why do you want to install that client?
[09:43] <coreymon77> here*
[09:43] <n2diy> coreymon77: we have the same time.
[09:43] <dissection> Pirate_Hunter: No, it'll logout of the root session.
[09:43] <dystopianray> Pirate_Hunter: sudo -k
[09:43] <Pirate_Hunter> dissection: kk thanx amigo
[09:43] <coreymon77> n2diy: ya, 3:43 am is not 13:43
[09:43] <majnoon> maybe they should come out with a buntu that has EVERYTHING
[09:44] <coreymon77> n2diy: its 3:43
[09:44] <dissection> Pirate_Hunter: You can type sudo -k to clear the pass from the cache
[09:44] <murlidhar> dystopianray: cuz i already have it in my windows and i would like it in this distro as well for i am used to that client
[09:44] <anto_> Can somone help me change my login screen?
[09:44] <n2diy> coreymon77: sorry, typo.
[09:44] <Pirate_Hunter> majnoon: They have its called ubuntu ultimate or something on those lines and it is around 3.2GB
[09:44] <majnoon> anto_, which buntu you using ??
[09:44] <anto_> majnoon, Xubuntu with kde4
[09:45] <majnoon> kdm kinda pain
[09:45] <Pirate_Hunter> dissection: hola mi no habla espanhol lol... dont mind me its just too early in the mourn for me
[09:45] <coreymon77> n2diy: major typo
[09:45] <majnoon> should be a section in settings program
[09:45] <majnoon> <<has *buntu
[09:45] <n2diy> dissection2: Could it be static electricity? Ground yourself after leaving the laptop, and then returning to it.
[09:46] <n2diy> coreymon77: no, not major, a 1 vs a 0.
[09:46] <coreymon77> n2diy: diff of 11 hours though
[09:46] <dissection> n2diy: Uh, that can cause Ubuntu to freeze? Thats odd @_@
[09:46] <n2diy> coreymon77: wrong, 12 hours!
[09:47] <majnoon> though i've seen gnome,kde,and xfce pretty interchangable
[09:47] <kritzstapf> is there a tool like dvdshrink for windows to compress dvd-files? ive got a 4,8GB dvd and my burner is not able to burn double layer :/
[09:47] <coreymon77> n2diy: and 1 and 0 are on the complete other side of the keyboard
[09:47] <coreymon77> wrong, 11
[09:47] <Pirate_Hunter> isnt there a site that holds a list of apps for ubuntu... I ask this cause university has started and I want to try & do all my work through ubuntu but im missing stuff like html editor, c++ compiler etc
[09:47] <dystopianray> kritzstapf: k9copy or just use dvdshrink in wine
[09:48] <n2diy> coreymon77: I have a numeric keypad, where they are next to each other.
[09:48] <majnoon> coreymon77, THAT why you use keypad :P
[09:48] <coreymon77> n2diy: i mean, ten
[09:48] <dystopianray> Pirate_Hunter: packages.ubuntu.com
[09:48] <coreymon77> majnoon: laptop
[09:48] <coreymon77> majnoon: no numpad
[09:48] <n2diy> dissection2: I don't know, something funny, like static electricity, RF, etc...
[09:48] <majnoon> even they USUALLY have some kinda peypad
[09:48] <dystopianray> Pirate_Hunter: you'll need to install build-essential if you want to do C or C++ programming
[09:49] <Pirate_Hunter> dystopianray: thats a needle in a haystack I was hoping for something more obvious than that which has suggested programs that ueser have used... I hate getting apps only to find out they are crap
[09:49] <dissection> Pirate_Hunter: Pretty much everything you need is there in your repositories that you can access from Applications > Add/Remove Programs
[09:49] <majnoon> (may need to push a function key)
[09:49] <dystopianray> Pirate_Hunter: what sort of app are you specifically looking for?
[09:49] <coreymon77> majnoon: ya, the row at the yop of the keyboard
[09:49] <majnoon> yop yop yop
[09:49] <coreymon77> 1234567890
[09:49] <coreymon77> 0987654321
[09:50] <coreymon77> that one
[09:50] <kritzstapf> dystopianray: thanks i tried k9copy, but i cant find an option to tell it that i want the image to be only 4,3GB, ill try shrink
[09:50] <Pirate_Hunter> dystopianray: we could start with a good html editor, VB - c++ compiler
[09:50] <CommonClone> I'm having some problems setting up my home network, is there a way for me to view my other computer in the network folder without doing anything crazy like ssh
[09:50] <dystopianray> Pirate_Hunter: html editor = any text editor, there is no VB compiler, build-essentialf or C/C++
[09:51] <majnoon> dystopianray, isn't gambas CLOSE ??
[09:51] <n2diy> coreymon77: Trivia: Why is it never appropriate to use 24:00 as a time designation?
[09:51] <coreymon77> CommonClone: what do you mean by "view"
[09:51] <dystopianray> majnoon: pardon?
[09:51] <coreymon77> n2diy: 24:00 is 0:00
[09:51] <Pirate_Hunter> dystopianray: your telling me they haven't got something close to frontpage for ubuntu that can't be right
[09:51] <majnoon> gambas isn't it a VB clone ??
[09:51] <CommonClone> I just want to be able to see my other computer in the network folder, and be able to move files around
[09:52] <Pirate_Hunter> dystopianray: well thanx ill look into those
[09:52] <dystopianray> Pirate_Hunter: frontpage is a horrible piece of crap
[09:52] <dystopianray> Pirate_Hunter: there are WYSIWYG web page creators, but they are usually always terrible
[09:52] <majnoon> open office + ftp better
[09:52] <n2diy> coreymon77: No, there is only 23:59:57 in a day, that is why we have a leap year. :)
[09:52] <coreymon77> n2diy: same way as you dont say 1 minute 60 seconds
[09:52] <coreymon77> n2diy: wrong
[09:53] <murlidhar> Ok i have installed lh-abc on my pc and able to run through terminal but am not able to run it from desktop launcher . the error says permission denied
[09:53] <coreymon77> n2diy: we have a leap year because there are 365 and a quarter dys each year
[09:53] <Pirate_Hunter> dystopianray: (-_-) I know but sometimes its about productivity how much cna I do with an app like that wihtout having to remember all the tags especially since I'll have to do more than one assignment at a time
[09:53] <Voker57> What's the correct architecture for Intel Core Quad?
[09:53] <dystopianray> Voker57: x86
[09:53] <coreymon77> n2diy: every four years that equals an extra day
[09:54] <n2diy> coreymon77: Then why do we subtract a day every four years, we should be adding them?
[09:54] <coreymon77> n2diy: we dont
[09:54] <CommonClone> coreymon77: when I open my network folder all I see is windows network, and there is nothing in it, I want to be able to access my other computer on my home network
[09:54] <coreymon77> n2diy: we add a day in february
[09:54] <dystopianray> Pirate_Hunter: if you check packages.ubuntu.com there should be several WYSIWYG web page creators
[09:54] <n2diy> coreymon77: Whoops, brain cramp.
[09:55] <coreymon77> n2diy: ya. no kidding
[09:55] <Pirate_Hunter> dystopianray: yeha will do now going to boot to xp and finish installing what i was doing last night
[09:55] <cyph3x> my wifi keeps dying out and it seems no one has an answer to this particular problem. wehenver i hibernate my wifi dies and it reandomly pops back on
[09:56] <n2diy> coreymon77: Anyway, we have to add a day every four years, because a day is not 24:00 long, so that is how we compensate for it.
[09:56] <cyph3x> any ideas?
[09:56] <majnoon> ok one thing i was wondering ,is the reason dpkg and etc. take so long it does ldconfig a lot ??
[09:57] <murlidhar> Details: Failed to execute child process "/home/murlidhar/LH-ABC_3.2.0/lh-abc.py" (Permission denied)
[09:57] <cyph3x> bah
[09:57] <coreymon77> n2diy: ya, its longer than 24 hours
[09:57] <cyph3x> i think ill just go ack to windows
[09:57] <cyph3x> back*
[09:57] <saori> Does anyone know why my title bar vanishes when I turn on Compiz?
[09:57] <majnoon> cyph3x, ack is correct
[09:57] <coreymon77> n2diy: if it was shorter than 24, we would subtract a day, not add
[09:58] <cyph3x> ha well i havent had much luck with ubuntu while windows seems to run all of my basic peripherals perfectly soooo
[09:58] <cyph3x> for example... wifi
[09:58] <dystopianray> cyph3x: stick to what you know best
[09:58] <n2diy> coreymon77: Nooo,,,, You have to add  to account for the short days.
[09:58] <Klonoa> Hmm
[09:59] <cyph3x> on ubuntu it kinda works when it wants to and when it stops.... it wil start up again apparently at random?
[09:59] <Klonoa> I seem to have destroyed my Firefox install.
[09:59] <k4u> Hi, my internal harddisks won't connect at startup. how do i auto connect them, without entering a pass every time?
[09:59] <Klonoa> Even reinstalling it via apt-get, it still won't load up.
[09:59] <Klonoa> Anybody got any ideas?
[09:59] <dystopianray> cyph3x: what wifi chip do you have?
[09:59] <saori> No one using Compiz or Desktop Effects or whatever its called, having this problem?
[09:59] <cyph3x> i have an atheros
[09:59] <majnoon> i think i have like 5 or 6 diff versions of firefox
[10:00] <Klonoa> I can get Iceweasel to run, but that's it. -_-;
[10:00] <cyph3x> *shrug it comes default with lenovo z series
[10:00] <dystopianray> atheros usually works without issue
[10:00] <majnoon> you try tarball downloads ??
[10:00] <Klonoa> I had nothing but trouble with the Atheros cards.
[10:00] <Klonoa> Finally just got an Intel.
[10:00] <Klonoa> Works wonders.
[10:01] <dystopianray> yes Intel is excellent
[10:01] <majnoon> i have iceweasel,swiftfox,ff,flock,and songbirf
[10:01] <cyph3x> but it isnt just my wifi card either
[10:01] <majnoon> *songbird
[10:01] <murlidhar> please somebody help me i do not want to launch my terminal to open a application everytime
[10:01] <majnoon> murlidhar, try alt+f2
[10:01] <alecw1> Hello! I have the beta of Gusy Gibbn, and I'm connected to my network. I candownload packages, and install things (apt-get), but I can't access anywebsites or IM networks. I've got 2 other fiesty computers workingfine, and my /etc/resolv.conf matches with all of them. If I ping thewebsite I want to access, get the IP, and put that into the browser, itDOES work. But domains don't. Can someone help? Also, my sound isn't working... I've got no id
[10:01] <cyph3x> when i reboot/hibernate/suspend things just randomly stop worling... like my wifi and sound?
[10:02] <dystopianray> alecw1: gutsy support only in #ubuntu+1
[10:02] <alecw1> dystopianray: I tried there. :(
[10:03] <majnoon> until the 18th or so
[10:03] <dystopianray> alecw1: try harder, you will not receive help here
[10:03] <dystopianray> cyph3x: some hardware is flakey with hibernate and suspend
[10:03] <alecw1> dystopianray: Ok, sorry.
[10:03] <cyph3x> it sucks because i really hate "profteering gluttons" -- but... it works consistently
[10:03] <dissection> My swap usage is always 0 bytes. How can I fix that?
[10:03] <cyph3x> dystopianray: how would i fix that then?
[10:04] <k4u> Hi, my internal harddisks won't connect at startup. how do i auto connect them, without entering a pass every time?
[10:04] <dystopianray> cyph3x: use windows
[10:04] <alecw1> dystopianray: I don't think my problem is gusty specific.
[10:04] <cyph3x> alrighty then.
[10:04] <dystopianray> alecw1: install feisty and reproduce it, then we will help
[10:04] <majnoon> ok one thing i was wondering ,is the reason dpkg and etc. take so long it does ldconfig a lot ??
[10:04] <dystopianray> dissection: do you have any swap enabled?
[10:05] <ardin> k4u: i would say to edit /etc/fstab .. except i think theres a way to to it with a graphical thing somewhere.
[10:05] <alecw1> dystopianray: It happened when I installed fiesty with my laptop, same thing, but I forgot what I did to fix it.
[10:05] <dystopianray> alecw1: as long as you're running gutsy you won't be helped here
[10:05] <dissection> dystopianray: I set a 4GB Swap while installing. But in system monitor, it shows the usage as 0 bytes. Do I need to enable that partition from somewhere?
[10:06] <dystopianray> dissection: does it say you have 0 swap, or you have swap but it just hasn't been used?
[10:06] <alecw1> dystopianray: ok.
[10:06] <k4u> ardin: Okay, you don't know the graphical?
[10:06] <dissection> dystopianray: Yes, I have swap but 0 is used at all ties.
[10:06] <dissection> times
[10:06] <dystopianray> dissection: how much ram do you have?
[10:06] <dissection> 2GB
[10:06] <ardin> k4u: sorry, i have no idea how to do it graphically.
[10:06] <dystopianray> dissection: you're probably just not doing anything that has required swapping
[10:06] <k4u> okay, thnx anyway
[10:06] <punzada> dissection, you should make sure your swap partition is listed in your /etc/fstab
[10:06] <ardin> i would assume someone here does
[10:07] <punzada> I actually perfer to just use a swap file rather then a partition, always makes the most sense to me with modern components
[10:07] <dystopianray> k4u: give the drives fstab entries
[10:07] <knightwise> aloha
[10:07] <tifine> hello, everybody
[10:07] <knightwise> hey tfine
[10:08] <dissection> punzada: This is what I have in fstab...... # /dev/sda4
[10:08] <dissection> UUID=4350603b-feb3-48fd-ac96-a949304b8837 none            swap    sw              0       0
[10:08] <knightwise> i was wondering .. does anyone know of a good apt get package to install an rdp server on ubuntu ?
[10:08] <dissection> /dev/hda        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[10:08] <ardin> dystopianray: there isnt a gui for the fstab yet? wow
[10:08] <dissection> Woops, sorry I thought that'll be one line
[10:08] <murlidhar>  please somebody help me i do not want to launch my terminal to open a application everytime
[10:08] <dystopianray> ardin: I have no idea, I do not use any gui admin tools
[10:08] <ardin> murlidhar: whats wrong?
[10:08] <tifine> i would like to play vcd, dvd on ubuntu but getting some weird errors tried  Totem, Mplayer, Vlc any body here :( ?
[10:09] <dystopianray> tifine: have you installed libdvdcss ?
[10:09] <knightwise> murlidhar.. use a shortcut on the desktop
[10:09] <k4u> dystopianray: What do you mean?
[10:09] <punzada> the less gui tools the better in my opinion, config files are written and commented so well it makes things so simple that way
[10:09] <knightwise> tfine .. install the automatix script
[10:09] <murlidhar> thaks i tried using desktop shortcut but is not working
[10:09] <dystopianray> k4u: it sounds as though the drives have not been setup in fstab and so aren't being automatically mounted properly on boot
[10:09] <tifine> dystopianray:yep i installed  libdvdcss2
[10:09] <dystopianray> tifine: knightwise: NO, do not use automatix
[10:10] <dystopianray> tifine: did you install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly ?
[10:10] <murlidhar> it says Details: Failed to execute child process "/home/murlidhar/LH-ABC_3.2.0/lh-abc.py" (Permission denied)
[10:10] <k4u> dystopianray: I CAN see them, but when i want to open, i have to enter pass.. and THEN i can use them troughout ubuntu
[10:10] <knightwise> murlidhar . whats the command that you use
[10:10] <k4u> murlidhar: try sudo?
[10:10] <knightwise> tfine .. why not ?
[10:10] <dystopianray> k4u: as I said, you need to edit your fstab
[10:10] <tifine> dystopianray: yes indeed
[10:10] <k4u> dystopianray: And that is where?
[10:10] <murlidhar> knightwise: python lh-abc.py
[10:10] <dystopianray> k4u: /etc/fstab
[10:11] <dissection> punzada: is that right?
[10:11] <k4u> dystopianray: okay, let's try
[10:11] <knightwise> i have and old thin client at home and would like to hook it up to my ubuntu machine
[10:11] <r-wolf> nevertheless, in that case you have to know which config has to be edited
[10:11] <tifine> dystopianray: Knightwise:  okie lets see guys
[10:11] <k4u> dystopianray: okay, i'm in that file now. but which changes to make?
[10:12] <dystopianray> k4u: i don't know exactly what you want to do
[10:12] <ardin> punzada: last i heard, ubuntu was made for the desktop end user. It'll never get there without graphical admin tools like ways to change xorg settings or edit fstab without thinking.
[10:12] <r-wolf> why doesn't feisty's GUI package manager see packages on livecd?
[10:12] <knightwise> ubuntu was not specificly made for the desktop
[10:12] <tifine> dystopianray:  can you please help me out with dvd, vcd thinga ?
[10:12] <k4u> dystopianray; If i boot up my ubuntu. and i click on a disk, it asks me for a pass. THAT shouldn't happen, it should just connect
[10:12] <coreymon77> goodnight everyone
[10:12] <dystopianray> tifine: i don't know how to help any further
[10:12] <dystopianray> k4u: pastebin your fstab
[10:13] <knightwise> k4d ..  are you connecting to a samba drive ?
[10:13] <tifine> any geek here wana help for playing vcd or dvd
[10:13] <tifine> >?
[10:13] <dystopianray> knightwise: he said they were internal drives
[10:13] <knightwise> hmm sudo mount in fstab ?
[10:14] <r-wolf> I mean, why doesn't feisty's GUI package manager see packages on liveDVD from which it all has been installed?
[10:14] <punzada> dissection, by typing 'free' in terminal it recognizes the swap is there correct
[10:14] <knightwise> tfine check your private
[10:14] <punzada> ?
[10:14] <k4u> knightwise: samba? no.. it's just an internal drive...
[10:14] <dystopianray> ardin: there are gui tools for configuring xorg.conf and fstab
[10:14] <dissection> punzada: Yes, it shows up there but used is 0.
[10:14] <dystopianray> k4u: pastebin your fstab
[10:14] <punzada> how much ram is used?
[10:15] <ardin> dystopianray: i was responding to his comment about using less gui tools. i know most people on irc dont wanna use gui tools, but normal non-geek types dont wanna use the command line
[10:15] <knightwise> anybody got any experience with rdp and ubuntu ?
[10:15] <ardin> i'm sorry, i'm offtopic
[10:16] <punzada> no , it's not that non-geeks don't want to use the command line, it's that windows users don't want to use the command line
[10:16] <punzada> that's a big difference.
[10:16] <k4u> dystopianray: err, pastbin??:|
[10:16] <dystopianray> !pastebin | k4u
[10:16] <ubotu> k4u: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:16] <k4u> thnx
[10:16] <knightwise> oh my ..the gui vs command line discussions ? here ?
[10:17] <k4u> dystopianray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39743/
[10:18] <knightwise> i would not trust my fstab to a gui app
[10:18] <r-wolf> guys, how do I get GUI package manager at feisty consider packages from liveDVD? "settings - app sources" doesn't seem to recognize live DVD as package source
[10:18] <dystopianray> nor would I, and especially not my xorg.conf
[10:18] <dystopianray> k4u: ok so which partition are you having trouble with?
[10:18] <knightwise> r-wolf why not use the online reps ?
[10:19] <k4u> dystopianray: But.. the drive which i'm having troubles with isn't on there.. i think:\
[10:19] <knightwise> the packages are fresher there
[10:19] <dystopianray> k4u: pastebin the output of: sudo fdisk -l
[10:19] <r-wolf> knightwise: no, I'd like to minimize traffic
[10:20] <knightwise> ah . i understand
[10:20] <k4u> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39744/
[10:20] <knightwise> have you editet your /etc/sources file ?
[10:20] <dystopianray> k4u: ok, so which partition are you having trouble with?
[10:20] <r-wolf> knightwise: there has been no such file, should I create it?
[10:21] <knightwise> no the dir is different
[10:21] <knightwise> try locate sources
[10:21] <knightwise> it will give you the correct dir
[10:21] <knightwise> im on my mobile right now
[10:21] <k4u> dystopianray: darned... i'm not good at this:\ let's search.. i only know every drive by name...
[10:21] <knightwise> cant see my linux system from here
[10:22] <punzada> dissection, you still having issues?
[10:22] <k4u> darned, brb
[10:22] <dissection> punzada: Well it continues to show the swap usage as 0. I don't know if that has got anything to do with Ubuntu freezing all the time. No one's been able to find me a solution till now.
[10:23] <knightwise> ubuntu freezing up
[10:23] <dystopianray> k4u: ls -l /dev/disk/by-label
[10:23] <knightwise> ? must be quite a brob
[10:23] <knightwise> prob
[10:23] <punzada> you never answered my last question, how much ram usage do you have with 0 swap space and have you tried changing the 'swapiness'?
[10:23] <k4u> b, lets try dystophianray
[10:24] <k4u> dystopianray: aah, NOW that helps.. it's hda5!
[10:24] <r-wolf> knightwise: found /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:24] <dystopianray> k4u: you'll need to add an fstab line for hda5
[10:24] <murlidhar> i am trying to compile an application called linkage and it gives an error saying libtorrent was not found .i have already compiled and installed libtorrent
[10:24] <murlidhar> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39745/
[10:25] <k4u> dystopianray: okay. which is that?
[10:25] <dystopianray> k4u: pardon?
[10:25] <k4u> dystopianray: which line do i need to add? (sorry, i'm really a noob at this...)
[10:26] <dystopianray> k4u: you can basically copy the sda5 line but change the UUID and mount point
[10:26] <k4u> dystopianray: okay. where to get the UUID?
[10:27] <dystopianray> k4u: sudo vol_id /dev/hda5
[10:27] <murlidhar> any1?
[10:27] <Thegiver> how do i setup sshd on ubuntu?
[10:27] <AJ--> hello guys.. just wanna ask, is there any linux program that can capture a screen like CAMTASIA coz i want to make a video of my desktop

[10:28] <dystopianray> Thegiver: install openssh-server
[10:28] <Thegiver> oh

[10:28] <dystopianray> k4u: pastebin your new fstab so I can double check it
[10:29] <ikonia> Thegiver: the package is called openssh-server
[10:29] <Thegiver> hmm kool
[10:30] <Thegiver> hmm

[10:31] <dystopianray> Thegiver: it'll start by default after you install it
[10:31] <ikonia> tifine don't shout, its the best way to get ignored
[10:31] <Thegiver> cool
[10:31] <dystopianray> Thegiver: otherwise do /etc/init.d/ssh start
[10:31] <dystopianray> k4u: does /media/hda5 actually exist?
[10:32] <dystopianray> k4u: just make sure you've run: sudo mkdir /media/hda5
[10:32] <open-gl> I wanted to know if ntfs-3g can unistall thing that are from windows.
[10:32] <tifine> any body good in playing vcd,dvd using ubuntu  getting error message while playing vcd on ubuntu    This is the error message i m getting it ( error opening /initalizing the selected video_out(-vo) device  ))
[10:32] <Kenny3> what should i choose in virtual box for the os type of ubuntu? there is linux 2.2 , 2.4 and 2.6
[10:32] <k4u> dystopianray: Okay, i did that now.. do i need to reboot or not?
[10:32] <dystopianray> open-gl: ntfs-3g cannot itself run any software from your windows partition
[10:32] <dystopianray> k4u: yeah do a reboot to make sure it's all working
[10:32] <k4u> kenny3: It doesn't matter, that's just so you can recognize it
[10:33] <ikonia> Kenny3 2.6
[10:33] <k4u> dystopianray: okay, thnx.. let's reboot then!
[10:33] <Thegiver> do all users have ssh access.. or do i have to do something in my passwd file?
[10:33] <Sontax`lap> ok running new kernel now
[10:33] <Thegiver> if so what do i have to do?
[10:33] <Sontax`lap> wireless working but still not the resolution
[10:33] <open-gl> dystopianray so that means i cant uninstal a software that is in windows
[10:33] <ikonia> k4u it does matter
[10:33] <k4u> ikonia: oh, okay... didn't know:P
[10:33] <ikonia> k4u don't say things you don't know
[10:33] <Kenny3> k4u: doesnt matter? recognize what??
[10:33] <Kenny3> ikonia: ok
[10:33] <ikonia> k4u: its dangerous
[10:33] <Kenny3> ikonia: thanks
[10:34] <k4u> ikonia: i was certain it didn't matter. but since you tell me the oppisite;)
[10:34] <rulus> hi, I can mount a partition at /home, but how do I mount a directory from that partition at /home?
[10:34] <tifine> any body good in playing vcd,dvd using ubuntu  getting error message while playing vcd on ubuntu    This is the error message i m getting it ( error opening /initalizing the selected video_out(-vo) device  ))
[10:34] <ikonia> rulus same way you mounted /home - just mount a dir off /home
[10:34] <ikonia> rulus: /home/mount for example
[10:34] <k4u> going into reboot...
[10:35] <Thegiver> so?
[10:35] <rulus> ikonia: no, I mean a directory from the partition to mount, like /backup/home at /dev/sda1 should be mounted at the /home
[10:37] <k4u> dystopianray: Great! it works!! thnx!!
[10:37] <hhp2k> Anyone wanna help me with a curious configure error?
[10:38] <k4u> now i've got another issue.. on another box, i installed ubuntu for my dad.. but i chose command line install.. how do i get the xserver working?
[10:38] <Richard> is it possible to burn a disc while using the ubuntu live cd?
[10:38] <ikonia> k4u: install the desktop version, not the server version
[10:39] <ikonia> Richard: yes,
[10:39] <ikonia> hhp2k: just ask the question
[10:39] <k4u> ikonia: sudo apt-get install what?
[10:39] <ikonia> k4u no - re-install ubuntu and use the destkop version, not the server eddition
[10:39] <Snille> Finns det ngot bra grafist verktyg fr att montera ISOs i Gnome?
[10:40] <hhp2k> Here's what I've got after trying to run ,/configure on a screensaver package:
[10:40] <hhp2k> checking for X11 application defaults directory... not found
[10:40] <hhp2k> configure: error: try using the --with-defaultdir=DIR option
[10:40] <Richard> im kinda new to this how do it?
[10:40] <xcst> i need help with ubuntu and beryl
[10:40] <Snille> grafiskt even
[10:40] <Snille> Opps sorry..
[10:40] <k4u> ikonia: Sorry, i can't reinstall... i tried that several times.. this is the only way the install actually works...
[10:40] <mailavj> anybody know how to play VCDs in ubuntu?
[10:41] <ikonia> k4u thats nonsens, the server edition is built on the same packages as the desktop so either both will work or neither. Try the alternative ISO image, rather than the destkop (not the server edition)
[10:41] <monkey_> hey everybody and girl down here :)
[10:41] <xcst> when i am using  beryl it works fine, for a while, until i downloaded codecs for video like avi, mpeg etc. beryl didnt work anymore
[10:41] <psyphen> k4u: what happens if you type "gdm" at the command line?
[10:41] <k4u> ikonia: i HAVE the alternate image.. it just fails
[10:41] <dystopianray> rulus: I don't think you can do that, you'd have to mount the partition somewhere else and do a bind mount
[10:42] <ikonia> hhp2k: that is asking for a configure argument for the X11 default dir
[10:42] <k4u> ikonia: i have installed ubuntu-desktop, and xinit
[10:42] <rulus> dystopianray: thanks, I'll look into that
[10:42] <k4u> brb, lets try @ psyphen
[10:42] <ikonia> k4u: use the desktop version
[10:43] <k4u> psyphen: it tells me to install that.. i'm doing that right now
[10:43] <ikonia> k4u: there is more to having a desktop environment than actually having the destkop. Use the desktop edition
[10:43] <arooni-mobile> folks:  i have ubuntu ... and i have a webapp i wrote that i need to test on the safari browser.  i have heard that konqueror is a good way of testing, but i've heard there are some differences in rendering between the two browsers.  ideas?
[10:43] <k4u> ikonia: sorry. i really can't.. every setup fails
[10:43] <ikonia> k4u: explain the failure
[10:43] <binhbanhbao> can lien he nhung anh em thanh vien 4vn de mua hack audition :T
[10:44] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: safari and konqueror are very different
[10:44] <punzada> arooni-mobile, use browsercam
[10:44] <k4u> ikonia: during setup. OR it just keeps saying: hold on a sec
[10:44] <k4u> ikonia: OR it just can't install some stuff
[10:44] <k4u> ikonia: And the live-cd doesn't even boot at all
[10:44] <arooni-mobile> arooni-mobile, what i need to test is javascript based.... and isnt static content
[10:44] <ikonia> k4u you've not told me what it says
[10:44] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: install safari in windows and test there
[10:44] <nikolam> Hi
[10:44] <nikolam> I am just sick and tired of killing gam_server and Thunar that uses all CPU. and when mouse start moving badly because of big cpu usage.. I thought I left those problems on Win XP..

[10:45] <k4u> ikonia: i had all those errors yesterday, was very tired.. are you asking me to remember something like a simple error?
[10:45] <arooni-mobile> dystopianray, hmmm dont have a windoz computer at home... i went all in on linux
[10:45] <ikonia> k4uk4u what errors ? you've not told me any errors
[10:45] <nikolam> Maybe settig poll value to 3 bilions would stop it?..
[10:45] <k4u> ikonia: i had all those errors yesterday, was very tired.. are you asking me to remember something like a simple error?
[10:45] <k4u> brb, checking @ other box
[10:45] <ikonia> k4uk4u what errors ? you've not told me any errors
[10:46] <XomboX> hi
[10:46] <XomboX> can anyone tell me, how to run a console program on the background? I mean without seeking output of the program.
[10:46] <ikonia> XomboX: pipe the output to /dev/null eg: ./program >/dev/null
[10:47] <ikonia> XomboX: or background it with ./program &
[10:47] <stoone> XomboX: program &
[10:47] <arooni-mobile> what is difference between vmware's server & workstation product?
[10:47] <ikonia> arooni-mobile /join #vmwarehq
[10:47] <ikonia> arooni-mobile: /join #vmware sorry
[10:47] <XomboX> yea, cool. Thats it!! THANK you :-)
[10:48] <nikolam> XomboX: Try using screen. screen is application to start and manage multiple terminals/processes and you can attach/detach from them without need to run X
[10:48] <xda> is there a program that lets me click on the desktop and it would tell me the color code? like #000000
[10:48] <ikonia> xda: I don't think so, but take a screen shot and use the eye dropped in gimp
[10:48] <ikonia> dropper
[10:49] <xda> hm
[10:49] <xda> thx
[10:49] <stoone> xda: agave for example can do that too.
[10:49] <xda> agave
[10:49] <xda> ?
[10:49] <nikolam> xda: you can press printscreen on keyboard and fo new>paste in Gimp Then see what color it is
[10:49] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: you need windows for serious web development testing
[10:50] <nikolam> dystopianray: he can use emulated windows in Xen or so for testing, its the same thing
[10:50] <arooni-mobile> dystopianray, is it enough to have vmware installed?
[10:50] <arooni-mobile> and install windwos that way
[10:50] <arooni-mobile> i really hate windows
[10:50] <ikonia> nikolam no substitue for the real thing
[10:50] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: if you install windows in it, sure
[10:51] <arooni-mobile> dystopianray, do you know what differencee between vmware's workstation and server product is?
[10:51] <binhbanhbao> but I need to relate members of 4 vn! whom able to Please kindly talk privately! thank
[10:51] <nikolam> ikonia: I disagree. It IS the same thing. OS that runs in VM does not even know where it is running. It is suitable for almost everything, but driver development
[10:51] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: workstation costs money, just use vmware player
[10:51] <ikonia> nikolam I don't disagree with that at all
[10:51] <arooni-mobile> dystopianray, what about vmware server?
[10:51] <arooni-mobile> is vmware server == vmware player
[10:51] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: no
[10:51] <ikonia> arooni-mobile join #vmware
[10:52] <arooni-mobile> they aren't answering any qs :(
[10:52] <ikonia> binhbanhbao just ask your question
[10:52] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: vmware server is significantly more complicated and has a client-server architecture
[10:52] <ikonia> arooni-mobile then wait
[10:52] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: just get vmware player
[10:52] <arooni-mobile> so you'd reccomend player over all other choices
[10:52] <arooni-mobile> ok
[10:52] <dystopianray> yes
[10:52] <dystopianray> or workstation if you want to pay for it
[10:52] <nikolam> arooni-mobile: You can also use Xen or Qemu, besides VmWare (closed source)
[10:53] <arooni-mobile> nikolam, whats the best one to use?
[10:53] <databuddy> !paste
[10:53] <stoone> arooni-mobile: or you can use VirtualBox too
[10:53] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:53] <arooni-mobile> what is a .rpm file?
[10:53] <arooni-mobile> is that another type of archive?
[10:53] <dystopianray> nikolam: qemu is easy to use, just install it from the repos and go
[10:54] <SoCo> hi there!
[10:54] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: .rpm is a read hat package manager file, like a .deb for red hat and other distros that use it
[10:54] <psyphen> arooni-mobile: i personally use virtualbox if you're wanting an open source virtualisation solution on a windows system
[10:54] <ikonia> arooni-mobile rpm is a package meant for rpm based distros like redhat and fedora
[10:54] <detra> Hi ... can anyone recommend a way to install my nvidia drivers ? Every single time I've tried my ubuntu has crashed and I had to spent several hours getting it back up ... And I've followed the guides on the internet ...
[10:54] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: how does virtualbox differ from qemu?
[10:54] <dystopianray> detra: what card do you have?
[10:54] <ikonia> detra what version of ubuntu are you using and what nvidia card do you have
[10:54] <arooni-mobile> dystopianray, surely you're not asking me that ;p
[10:55] <hume> detra, tried the restricted-drivers interface?
[10:55] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: oh sorry wrong person
[10:55] <detra> hume, yes
[10:55] <dystopianray> psyphen: what is the difference between virtualbox and qemu?
[10:55] <detra> dystopianray, Geforce 7600 GS
[10:55] <arooni-mobile> usually i access my webapp via http://localhost:3000/........ when i put vmware on ... how will i get to this URL?
[10:55] <ikonia> !nvidia >detra
[10:55] <psyphen> dystopianray: funtionally the same but just a little more fancy interface-wise
[10:55] <detra> ikonia, Feisty 7.04 or ???
[10:55] <ikonia> detra: read that link and it will walk you through it
[10:56] <detra> !nvidia
[10:56] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:56] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: depends on how you setup the vmware network
[10:56] <binhbanhbao> please salute! I need to procure members of 4 VN! Wait my which of everybody know please pointed dm! thank!
[10:56] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: but you'll probalby just do: http://<your-lan-ip>:3000/
[10:56] <bigbang14> where is the open office irc channel?
[10:56] <ikonia> binhbanhbao as the question
[10:56] <ikonia> bigbang14 #openoffice
[10:56] <dystopianray> !ask | binhbanhbao
[10:56] <ubotu> binhbanhbao: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:56] <ikonia> binhbanhbao: ask the question
[10:57] <arooni-mobile> dystopianray, but i have dynamic iP :(
[10:57] <detra> ikonia, thx
[10:57] <detra> ikonia, ill try
[10:57] <arooni-mobile> is there a dyndns client for linux?
[10:57] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: dynamic on your lan?
[10:57] <ikonia> detra let us know if you have problems
[10:57] <arooni-mobile> oh no i gotcha
[10:57] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: I am talking about your lan ip
[10:57] <arooni-mobile> i thought you were talking about my external IP
[10:57] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: or even your lan hostname
[10:57] <arooni-mobile> my router
[10:58] <bigbang14>  ikonia: you sure?
[10:58] <ikonia> bigbang14 sure about what ?
[10:58] <arooni-mobile> what do i need to install winxp ? i need the cd right?
[10:58] <arooni-mobile> that is
[10:58] <arooni-mobile> thats it?
[10:58] <bigbang14> ikonia, it being #openoffice. for support?
[10:59] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: that's right
[10:59] <ikonia> bigbang14 I believe so
[10:59] <arooni-mobile> if i want to test safari & ie... is there any need to get vista?  or is XP good enough?
[10:59] <arooni-mobile> is virtualbox >> better than >> vmware player?
[10:59] <org_> what package do i need to install for IDENTD to work?
[10:59] <psyphen> arooni-mobile: the cd and at least 1024mb ram and 10gb space. you can test safari and ie on xp just fine
[10:59] <dystopianray> arooni-mobile: xp is fine
[10:59] <org_> i already forwarded 113 into my router. but whats the package i need to install
[11:00] <binhbanhbao> Ask 1 questions! But do no one know h? Lugubrious sadness:((
[11:00] <arooni-mobile> psyphen, so i should make a virtual 10GB drive?  thats the size you reccomend? and i should give virtual machine 1024 megs of ram?
[11:00] <dystopianray> org_: why do you need ident?
[11:00] <arooni-mobile> i have 2GB / core 2 duo / many gigs on my pc
[11:00] <org_> dystopianray, for irc, different networks. I don't want the ~ to show before the ident
[11:00] <psyphen> arooni-mobile: perfect
[11:00] <bigbang14> ikonia: it is #openoffice.org
[11:00] <ikonia> bigbang14 ahh welldone
[11:01] <arooni-mobile> psyphen, it will just use my swap if it needs to right?  i usually almost use up all of my 2GB with running apps & such
[11:02] <binhbanhbao> members of 4 VN since flat qu?n chng phng did they keep peanut returnned where? who' s know Please kindly to pointed dm! thank
[11:02] <dystopianray> binhbanhbao: what is 4 VN?
[11:03] <binhbanhbao> ok
[11:03] <ikonia> binhbanhbao: this is ubuntu support questions only. Ask a question on ubuntu or find a better channel
[11:03] <ikonia> xoz: sounds reasonable
[11:03] <psyphen> arooni-mobile: i hope so. i've never used vmware player. my xp workstation at the company happily runs fedora, gentoo, and ubuntu using virtualbox despite management insisting on purchasing vmware servers
[11:04] <org_> i already forwarded 113 into my router. but whats the package i need to install
[11:04] <org_> for IDENTD
[11:04] <arooni-mobile> psyphen, hmm i'm installing both vmware and virtual box
[11:04] <PikachuTrAiNeR> Does Xubuntu have the ATI bug as well?
[11:04] <PikachuTrAiNeR> Or is it just Ubuntu?
[11:04] <ikonia> org_: what do you mean identd ?
[11:05] <ikonia> org_: as in the unix daemon ?
[11:05] <org_> ident man
[11:05] <ardin> ok, quck question. how would i set /mnt/backup (its a drive, duh) to be able to be read by everyone on the system
[11:05] <org_> i dont know other name
[11:05] <ikonia> PikachuTrAiNeR what ati bug ?
[11:05] <psyphen> arooni-mobile: good idea. it's really up to personal choice
[11:05] <ikonia> org_ ident man ?
[11:05] <ikonia> ardin: chmod 777
[11:05] <PikachuTrAiNeR> The Gnome not loading on ATI Cards thing
[11:05] <ikonia> ardin: thats read write for everyeone
[11:05] <bigbang14> my auto-correct in OO writer only corrects capitalization after a sentence and not at the beginning of a paragraph
[11:06] <PikachuTrAiNeR> On 7.04
[11:06] <ikonia> PikachuTrAiNeR ati has bugs in xorg - not the desktop
[11:06] <binhbanhbao> give inquiry to me! room it is which to inquire and take people!
[11:06] <org_> ikonia, http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/opsys/linux/LinuxGuide/linux-identd.html
[11:06] <ardin> ... ikonia uh.. no, thats read write execute.. i want nothing there executed
[11:06] <ikonia> ardin ok so what do you want read only - thats it
[11:07] <arooni-mobile> psyphen, i just installed virtualbox..... how do i run it?  virtualbox doesnt work
[11:07] <Sontax`lap> i still cant get my screan working at 1280x800
[11:07] <PikachuTrAiNeR> Well, does Xubuntu boot properly on ATI cards?
[11:07] <PikachuTrAiNeR> To put it simply.
[11:07] <k4u> arooni-mobile: It should be in the menu under system-tools
[11:07] <ikonia> PikachuTrAiNeR no more / less than ubuntu
[11:07] <Sontax`lap> everything else looks to work on the new kernel
[11:07] <arooni-mobile> i should say ; running 'virtualbox' doesnt work
[11:07] <IdleOne> arooni-mobile: VirtualBox case sensitive
[11:07] <ikonia> ardin: 774 ? read only for everyone ?
[11:07] <k4u> Does anybody know a nice (graphical) ubuntu newsgroups-leecher?
[11:08] <ikonia> IdleOne: tag - your in
[11:08] <punzada> k4u, best one I found is Klibido
[11:08] <punzada> its designed for kde but runs fine in gnome
[11:08] <IdleOne> hehe ikonia not for very long
[11:08] <k4u> punzada: okay, let's install it then:p
[11:09] <arooni-mobile> what do you folks think about dynamic versus fixed size hard drives in virtualbox?
[11:09] <dystopianray> is virtualbox better than qemu?
[11:09] <else-> can anybody recommend a sip software?
[11:09] <ikonia> dystopianray its just personal prefernce
[11:09] <punzada> if you ever used newsbin pro on windows, it's very comparable software
[11:09] <dystopianray> else-: wengophone maybe
[11:09] <else-> thanks dystopianray
[11:09] <dystopianray> ikonia: there must be more to it than that
[11:09] <else-> can i use other sip providers than wengo in wengophone?
[11:09] <ikonia> dystopianray not really, they all seem to have pros/cons
[11:10] <dystopianray> ikonia: what is the disadvantage of virtualbox over qemu?
[11:10] <ikonia> dystopianray god knows
[11:11] <psyphen> arooni-mobile: i only use dynamic drives for fat32 because otherwise fixed will be limited to 2gb on fat32. fixed drives are fine to preset the space you know you're going to use
[11:12] <arooni-mobile> psyphen, does dynamic drive dramatically reduce the speed?  can you switch your mind later?  can you readjust fixed size later?
[11:14] <psyphen> arooni-mobile: i'm not entirely sure. any time i've wanted to adjust the size of a virtual drive i start a new virtual machine and remove the old one. hopefully someone else can be more helpful
[11:15] <k4u> if my cd is partually broke.. kan i put the files on a usb-stick?
[11:16] <ikonia> no
[11:16] <ikonia> burn a new cd
[11:16] <k4u> ikonia: i have no more cd r's left...
[11:16] <ikonia> buy some
[11:16] <clouder> when adding myself to a new group, do I have to reboot or just log all instances of myself out?
[11:17] <ikonia> log out and back int
[11:17] <ikonia> in
[11:17] <clouder> thanks
[11:17] <luitvd> hi
[11:18] <luitvd> i'm sorry to ask here, but which channel should I use to ask stuff about the gutsy beta?
[11:18] <ikonia> luitvd: ubuntu+1
[11:18] <Javid>  luitvd, #ubuntu+1
[11:18] <Javid> I win because mine has a # in it. <3
[11:18] <luitvd> thanks to you both :)
[11:18] <luitvd> bye
[11:19] <Bo^Dick> does ubuntu normally detect hardware?
[11:19] <ikonia> Bo^Dick: what do you mean ?
[11:19] <Bo^Dick> i mean auto detect
[11:19] <ikonia> when,
[11:19] <ikonia> install, real time, hotplug ?
[11:19] <ikonia> what type of hardware
[11:20] <Bo^Dick> graphics card, sound cards and stuff
[11:20] <Bo^Dick> i've plugged in a soundblaster audigy 2 card
[11:20] <ikonia> Bo^Dick: it will attempt detection at install
[11:20] <Bo^Dick> so i have to tell ubuntu that theres actually soundblaster card in the machine
[11:21] <arooni-mobile> psyphen, know how to solve this: The VirtualBox kernel driver is not accessible to the current user. Make sure that the user has write permissions for /dev/vboxdrv by adding them to the vboxusers groups. You will need to logout for the change to take effect..  ?  how do i add chasetoys to this user group
[11:21] <ikonia> Bo^Dick: no it should be aware, but it may have issues if you've config'd the old card
[11:21] <arooni-mobile> i.e. how can i add my user to the vboxusers group?
[11:22] <Bo^Dick> i've installed a fresh ubuntu with all the hardware in
[11:22] <Bo^Dick> i'm using an asus geforce extreme card
[11:22] <Bo^Dick> for graphics
[11:22] <Bo^Dick> the default resolution appeared to be 1024x768
[11:22] <ikonia> arooni-mobile use the user manager gui
[11:22] <desertc> Hello - I am trying to generate my key with launchpad.  Is there a channel I can ask about that?
[11:23] <ikonia> desertc: the instructions are on luanchpad
[11:23] <arooni-mobile> ikonia, where is the user manager gui
[11:23] <ikonia> arooni-mobile systems --> administration
[11:23] <desertc> ikonia, not on the page where I am having trouble which is the email verification clear text generation
[11:23] <ikonia> desertc post a link to the page your reading
[11:24] <Bo^Dick> ikonia: should i try to get the ubuntu drivers for each hardware and install them myself?
[11:24] <desertc> ikonia: Please paste a clear-signed copy of the following phrase into the box below. This can be achieved by saving the phrase to a file and running gpg --clearsign FILENAME.
[11:24] <ikonia> Bo^Dick: the drivers are part of the kernel
[11:24] <ikonia> desertc post a link to the page your reading
[11:24] <arooni-mobile> ikonia, does:  sudo -a chasetoys vboxusers    effectively do the same thing?
[11:24] <ikonia> arooni-mobile no
[11:24] <desertc> ikonia, one sec
[11:25] <arooni-mobile> ikonia, do i need to logout / login to apply changes
[11:25] <ikonia> arooni-mobile no
[11:25] <Bo^Dick> ikonia: should i try to update the kernel so that ubuntu knows the exact hardware details?
[11:25] <arooni-mobile> if so is that a ctrl + alt + delete job?
[11:25] <bascule> arooni-mobile: no
[11:25] <ikonia> Bo^Dick: no, what makes you think your hardware is a problem
[11:25] <Burdon> Hi Guys

[11:42] <murlidhar> Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
[11:42] <murlidhar> installed software in a non-standard prefix.
[11:42] <arooni> brokentire, did you see my msg ? i sent you one
[11:42] <nijaba_> MeRodent:: and if nobody test gutsy, it won't be very good when it launches, right ?
[11:42] <Guest56106> mechdave:no I am using the livecd Ubuntu
[11:42] <MeRodent> nijaba_, the problem is that you need to ask questions regarding gutsy on #ubuntu+1
[11:42] <DaBeowulf> Hey, does choosing VESA and 24 bit result in my monitor getting no signal, or how do I properly choose VESA to actually work for X?
[11:42] <murlidhar> how to adjust PKG_CONFIG_PATH
[11:42] <nijaba_> MeRodent: ok, will do
[11:42] <mechdave> Guest56106, Ok well you need to first mount your file system on your hard disk
[11:43] <nijaba_> MeRodent: thanks

[11:53] <Guest56106> when I do grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/root /dev/sda it shows mkdir:cannot create directory '/mnt/root/boot/grub': read only filesystem
[11:53] <murlidhar> bascule: could u please compile it urself cuz there are so many things neccessary to install . One of my friends is using it in fedora  and i liked it very much
[11:53] <dshuang001> ubotu, thanks, i will check it.
[11:53] <brokentire> Ive been searching and searching for an answer to my problem
[11:53] <murlidhar> dshuang001: :)
[11:54] <brokentire> I believe I found the solution...but I am not skilled enough to impliment it....I dont understand compiling drivers
[11:54] <bascule> brokentire: it's one of those things that is so difficult to take people through that I/we avoid it if we can
[11:55] <murlidhar> dshuang001: ubotu is a bot means it is a robot like software not a human
[11:55] <brokentire> bascule: I am not a beginnner beginner
[11:55] <bascule> ok
[11:56] <W1ZrD> Could anyone point me towards some guide regarding ati 9250 and beryl, as for a working solution?
[11:56] <brokentire> bascule otherwise I wouldnt realize that what I found was a solution to my problem
[11:57] <moreati> Dmitry_: I use gparted on a Linux live CD such as Knoppix. I think the Ubuntu Live CD/installer cd also has gparted, but you must run it from a shell.
[11:57] <hollandlucas_> moreati: It does have gparted
[11:57] <jimcooncat> brokentire: have you read these posts? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=489757&page=7
[11:58] <murlidhar> bascule: http://code.google.com/p/linkage/wiki/Installation
[11:58] <ratpoison> W1ZrD: best plan (stability-wise) is to wait for gutsy gibbon (i.e. the next version of ubuntu) It will be very simple then, since it will be integrated to the OS (if you install just a couple of packages)
[11:58] <Dmitry_> moreati: i'd like to take that step if i'm unsuccessful at doing it on windows. i've never used gparted before, and if it is only a command-line interface on the live CD, i'd rather avoid it, unless i have no other choice.
[11:59] <brokentire> jimcooncat I could try that ...thx
[11:59] <W1ZrD> ratpoison: i.e in 12 days?
[11:59] <MeRodent> Dmitry_, gparted is launched from command line "sudo gparted" but is a graphical partition manager.
[11:59] <ratpoison> W1ZrD: if all goes according to plan, yup
[11:59] <Dmitry_> merodent: is gparted installed by default in feisty fawn?
[11:59] <W1ZrD> ratpoison: looking forward to it :)
[12:00] <dshuang001> ubotu i get the erroe message :E: Package libxine-extracodecs has no installation candidate. I enabled multiverse and universe for all sources.
[12:00] <Lon> hey there :)
[12:00] <desertc> I can't get my Launchpad Wiki working.  It errors, saying I don't have access to edit my own page.  What's going on?
[12:00] <MeRodent> Dmitry_, I beleive it is also in system administration gnome partition manager on livecd. otherwise    sudo apt-get install gparted
[12:00] <Guest56106> how can i change the permission of a folder in linux command
[12:00] <arooni__> hey folks
[12:01] <arooni__> my taskbar is gone
[12:01] <arooni__> how do ig et it back
[12:01] <arooni__> it lists running programs & such
[12:01] <bascule> murlidhar: well I can try, but I am going out soon, and I need 24MB of stuff for gtkmm ...
[12:01] <MeRodent> Dmitry_, to clarify. gparted is not installed by default on feisty but is on the feisty livecd.
[12:01] <MeRodent> !enter | arooni_
[12:01] <ubotu> arooni_: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:01] <moreati> Dmitry_: seconded I remember seeing that, now MeRodent mentions it
[12:01] <arooni__> sorry MeRodent
[12:01] <ratpoison> W1ZrD: there is a way now, and it's no biggie, but there is a possibility ithat it might cause instabilities, when you upgrade your distribution
[12:01] <ok21> how can i change the permission of a folder in linux command
[12:01] <bascule> murlidhar: problem 2, I am running gutsy
[12:02] <Dmitry_> MeRodent, would i have to boot the live cd, and then use gparted from there?
[12:02] <ok21> I want to create folder inside it
[12:02] <murlidhar> bascule: ooh well thnks no problem
[12:02] <Dmitry_> MeRodent, would i have to enter any credentials?
[12:02] <Dmitry_> moreati, ok.
[12:02] <MeRodent> arooni_, right click on the panel   choose add to panel and then select notification area
[12:02] <W1ZrD> ratpoison: I've been running it before the merge but I simply forgot how to make it run with ATI's 9250 card :/
[12:02] <MeRodent> Dmitry_, you have sudo access without password from livecd
[12:03] <Dmitry_> MeRodent, ok. i guess i'll try that now. thanks. :)
[12:03] <moreati> ok21: what is folder you want to create things inside
[12:03] <Shrapnelhunter> I have x64 Feisty and I can't get a driver for my nVidia graphics card to install - can I apt it?
[12:03] <MeRodent> Dmitry_, you can install onto feisty and you will need your sudo password as well
[12:03] <arooni> MeRodent, ok i did that... nothing happens :(
[12:03] <desertc> Shrapnelhunter, Use the Restricted Driver manager
[12:04] <arooni> MeRodent, i want the thing thats on the bottom of the window... that lists running programs
[12:04] <arooni> there used to be a bar there
[12:04] <Shrapnelhunter> okies
[12:04] <desertc> Shrapnelhunter, I have AMD64 Feisty and the driver works okay (except for kernel upgrades.... sigh)
[12:04] <Shrapnelhunter> desertc: I've got a stupid intel :(
[12:04] <moreati> arooni Same procedure, but choose Window List
[12:05] <MeRodent> arooni, you can add the notification applet to any of the panels.
[12:05] <Kaja> Intel is not stupid =(
[12:05] <murlidhar> bascule: could u look at this and help me http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39750/
[12:05] <arooni> MeRodent, ok that works but how do i 'pull' that window list down to be a separate panel that is on the bottom of my screen
[12:06] <murlidhar> bascule: sorry sent u a wrong pastebin
[12:06] <bascule> murlidhar: ah
[12:06] <ok21> how can I change the permission of a folder so that it can be read and write into using linux commands
[12:06] <MeRodent> arooni, right select it from the bottom panel. the add to panel applies to the panel you select it from.
[12:06] <hetauma> any ideas how ubuntu creates the initial xorg.conf? how it detects monitor gfx card and suitable resolution ? can I run that again
[12:06] <moreati> ok21: as I asked before, what is the location of this folder?
[12:06] <arooni> MeRodent, but i dont even have a bottom panel to select it from
[12:06] <Shrapnelhunter> desetc: thanks a million!!!!!
[12:06] <MeRodent> arooni, otherwise right select and choose move.
[12:06] <desertc> Shrapnelhunter, you betcha
[12:07] <MeRodent> arooni, right select and choose new panel
[12:07] <murlidhar> bascule: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39751/
[12:07] <moreati> hetauma: this is a guess, but I think xorg itself creates it. Possibly with a particular command line switch.
[12:07] <ok21> its /mnt/root/boot
[12:07] <MeRodent> arooni, select the panel and choose properties to move a panel.
[12:08] <Tavathlon> Hello all. I have a major problem with the updates this morning - it made my drivers for the graphics card disappear, and my keyboard layout switched to English. Might be more issues, I don't know yet. Anyway, trying to reach the restricted drivers manager, it tells me the following: "You need to install the package  linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-13-generic  for this program to work.". So I tried to do that, but that package is not to be foun
[12:08] <ratpoison> W1ZrD: check your private, I have posted more detailed explanation  there
[12:08] <MeRodent> Tavathlon, Gutsy? if so #ubuntu+1
[12:09] <Tavathlon> MeRodent: thanks, I'll go to that room then..  =)
[12:09] <moreati> ok21: If you're doing things at the command line you need to put sudo infront of commands to run them as root: eg sudo mkdir /mnt/root/boot/newfolder
[12:09] <bascule> murlidhar: Requested 'libnotify >= 0.4.4' but version of libnotify is 0.4.3 <-- yor in trouble now, this involves building a newer version of this package, not recommende, cause it will probably break things that depend on notify (lots of things)
[12:09] <Burdon> ikonia: There are no drivers for Canon, aha: http://www.erlandertervueren.com/ubuntu/ip4300_guide/
[12:10] <murlidhar> bascule: as u said i installed libnotify-dev and it says it is already installed
[12:10] <bascule> it is, but it wants a newer version
[12:10] <W1ZrD> ratpoison: I haven't got any PM from you :/
[12:12] <murlidhar> bascule: if i install libnotify not a default ? i mean can't i install both the versions . the older version at default location and the newer verion at PKG_CONFIG_PATH something like that
[12:12] <ratpoison> W1ZrD: http://pastebin.com/m4f5ddf04
[12:14] <bascule> murlidhar: conflicting versions of packages are the road to ruin, trust me here
[12:14] <murlidhar> bascule: strange when fedora repos can have linkage then why can't our repos have
[12:14] <W1ZrD> ratpoison: brilliant, thanks a lot mate :)
[12:14] <murlidhar> :(
[12:14] <bascule> murlidhar: well different priorities, different distros
[12:14] <murlidhar> :(
[12:15] <tokj> or different distros, different priorities :P
[12:15] <murlidhar> tokj: whatever:(
[12:15] <bascule> murlidhar: there is one other thing you can try, alien is a command tht can install rpms, I have never used it but explore it as a possible solution ... :)
[12:15] <salomon> Who can help me with a microphone? I've tried the Gnome Alsamixer, but still, when I want to record sound with Audacity, i can't. It just doens't record...
[12:16] <tokj> portage has rpm and rpm2targz script
[12:16] <NTAuthority> salomon: does audcaity give an error about sound devices?
[12:16] <murlidhar> bascule: i searched for rpms but couldn't find it any idea?
[12:16] <NTAuthority> salomon: or does it just not record anything?
[12:16] <bascule> tokj: yeah, but it doesn't need them really, and lets not go promoting the g* thingy any further shall we ..
[12:17] <bascule> murlidhar: well if fedora can yum it, it's in their repos, grab it off some mirror and caryy on from there
[12:17] <tokj> bascule: dammit, i've mistaken the channel O.O
[12:17] <lastlemming> 7.10 RC will out this thurday right?
[12:17] <tokj> bascule: sorry :P
[12:17] <bascule> tokj: heh, :))
[12:18] <murlidhar> bascule: i will try
[12:18] <tokj> bascule: really, i thought that i was in #gentoo and not in #ubuntu
[12:18] <tiger_> At which runtime level does ubuntu boot by default ? I can't figure it out since there is no /etc/inittab !!

Go to Manage Bootloader, then Reinstall the Vista Bootloader, an GRUB is overwritten. You can then configure the Vista bootloader to add Linux to the boot menu."

[12:33] <familie> Crozar, ... install gparted in order to remove your win32 partition.. or just edit the GRUB config
[12:33] <Dmitry_> Crozar, why not just make ubuntu the default OS to boot, and set timeout 0 seconds to choose?
[12:33] <Dmitry_> i'm guessing then you won't even see grub.
[12:33] <gordonjcp> !ask | familie
[12:33] <ubotu> familie: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:33] <ikonia> Crozar resizing any partition through any software carries a risk, you can use whatever partition tools you wish
[12:33] <Crozar> Dmitry_: how to do that/
[12:33] <familie> gordonjcp, then help me to set up this printer
[12:33] <Dmitry_> Crozar, two seconds.
[12:33] <ikonia> Crozar change the timeout in menu.lst to 1
[12:33] <Crozar> ikonia: whats the best thing to do then for my friends laptop
[12:33] <ikonia> Crozar or use the "hiddenmenu" option
[12:34] <Crozar> ikonia: from we're ? in dos mode?
[12:34] <gordonjcp> familie: no
[12:34] <ikonia> Crozar I've just told you what to do with your friends manual
[12:34] <Crozar> ikonia:  on my start up
[12:34] <Dmitry_> Crozar, http://apcmag.com/5046/how_to_dual_boot_vista_with_linux_vista_installed_first
[12:34] <gordonjcp> familie: I don't know what problem you're having
[12:34] <Dmitry_> Crozar, ignore the mention of windows.
[12:34] <ikonia> Crozar dos mode ??? what are you talking about
[12:34] <Crozar> i mean on startup ikonia
[12:34] <Dmitry_> Crozar, find the line...
[12:34] <Shrapnelhunter>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[12:34] <ikonia> Crozar: change the line "timeout" in /boot/grub/menu.lst to "1"
[12:34] <Dmitry_> Crozar, Ctrl+F and find Configure GRUB
[12:34] <Dmitry_> Crozar, then have a read there.
[12:34] <ikonia> Crozar: or read the grub docs on "hiddenemenu" option
[12:35] <Hornet> Greetings.  Rather dire bug here, seems to be this one, or very similar: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/107516 .  What's the best solution out of the proposed, as I'm not sure what they do I really don't want to blindly apply them.  I'm sitting here watching kern.log , /var/logs/messages, and /var/logs/syslog grow by about half a meg every second. O_O
[12:35] <ikonia> Hornet: 1 moment
[12:35] <familie> gordonjcp, there are no fucking drivers availaible for this printer.. neither from ubuntu nor from Lexmark! Is there any chance to install windows drivers?
[12:35] <StatusD> apache 1.3 php module
[12:35] <Crozar> ikonia: how can my friend install ubuntu now?
[12:35] <ikonia> familie: that language is uncalled for and it is the best way to get banned
[12:35] <familie> I hate this... Not even the simples printer drivers :X
[12:35] <ikonia> Crozar use the install cd
[12:35] <Crozar> ikonia: ur saying resizeing is a risk
[12:35] <ikonia> Crozar yes
[12:36] <Crozar> ikonia: install cd cant do it
[12:36] <StatusD> what is the package name for Apache 1.3 PHP module??
[12:36] <Crozar> ikonia: its not familier with the process maybe because no body set it up for that kind of task
[12:36] <ikonia> Crozar the install cd will install fine
[12:36] <tarelerulz> Do any of you know how to make it so you can have mulitble media players running and all them  have sound .  I have ran more then one ,but they can't seem to hand more then one running at a time.  I have don it in windows do I not have ubuntu configed right
[12:36] <ikonia> Crozar gparted - the partition tool can and will resize it, however it carries a risk
[12:36] <Crozar> ikonia: install cd said * use entire harddisk , or manual , when i set to manual i dont have the options to resize ect..
[12:36] <gordonjcp> familie: see, why didn't you say that in the first place?
[12:37] <ikonia> Crozar show me a screen shot
[12:37] <gordonjcp> familie: what does Google have to say about it?
[12:37] <Crozar> hmmm ok
[12:37] <Crozar> l8er when i meet with him
[12:37] <chuxxsss> ikonia: I am getting this message about the driver Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[12:37] <Crozar> il make a small vid on my phone and put it on you tube
[12:37] <ikonia> chuxxsss I see
[12:37] <ikonia> Crozar no
[12:37] <ikonia> Crozar boot from the live cd
[12:37] <ikonia> Crozar take a screen shot
[12:37] <ikonia> Crozar post it on something like image shack
[12:38] <Crozar> ya
[12:38] <IndyGunFreak> man, he nvidia driver went to hell on all those updates in gutsy last night.
[12:38] <ikonia> chuxxsss is xorg using the nvidia driver ?
[12:38] <frylock^> hmmm. i took out my old cd drive and plugged in my new one. ubuntu does not seem to recognize it.
[12:38] <Crozar> ikonia: whats gparted ? worst then partition magic ? why they are on risk? whats the risk ?
[12:38] <ikonia> chuxxsssIndyGunFreak yes it did
[12:38] <chuxxsss> not sure
[12:38] <ikonia> Crozar there are risks with any tool that resize partitions with data on
[12:38] <chuxxsss> yes must be
[12:38] <frylock^> i can see /dev/sdc0 /mount/cdrom0 in my /etc/fstab, however there is no /dev/sdc0
[12:38] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: any idea what happened?... i'm slowly getting mine back together
[12:38] <Crozar> hmm
[12:39] <mysticalzero> HI guys. For some reason i couldn't access my ntfs drive. This picture will show you what i meant. http://mystzero.frih.net/image/others/screenshot1.png. Also, when i took a look at my syslog, there are many repeated errors like "Buffer I/O error on device sda3. I have look through google for solutions but found none. :(  Any ideas what's going on?
[12:39] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak no, I've seen a few problems with 8800 cards
[12:39] <Hornet> ikonia: if it helps, the logs are filling with this: Oct  6 09:53:29 Hades kernel: [ 5312.660000]  ACPI Error (evgpe-0711): No handler or method for GPE[ F] , disabling event [20060707] 
[12:39] <familie> gordonjcp, there are only hacks availaible that render my scanner in this al-in-one printer useless..
[12:39] <gordonjcp> familie: bummer
[12:39] <familie> like installing drivers of another product branch
[12:39] <gordonjcp> familie: maybe it's not supported, then
[12:39] <ikonia> Hornet have you added the ec_intr=0 line to your kernel boot options
[12:40] <familie> gobgob, :(
[12:40] <familie> sry was meant for gordonjcp
[12:40] <familie> anway, thank you
[12:40] <Crozar> ikonia: this new laptop of my friends has a featuer when he recovers hes computer it makes 5 partitions ( 1 for swap something ) ( 1 for a recovery cd just for reinstall any missing or error thing ) ( 1 for windows and 10GB ect. for fileswap ) ( 1 for whatever files ) ( and 1 is i guess 300mb and i dont knwo wh ats that for )
[12:40] <gordonjcp> familie: some manufacturers are at best unhelpful and at worst downright hostile to people writing Linux drivers
[12:40] <Hornet> ikonia: I've no idea what it does, that's mainly why I'm here.  I don't want to blindly add things to the kernel options without know what they do.
[12:40] <tarelerulz> When I run mplayer for terminal I can have totem playing someting and mplayer playing something else and when I run mplayer from the menu it says it can't not open/initialize the audio device
[12:40] <gordonjcp> familie: unfortunately Lexmark fall into the latter category
[12:41] <ikonia> Crozar then don't mess with the partitions if you don't know what they are for
[12:41] <ikonia>                    worst downright hostile to people writing Linux drivers
[12:41] <k4u> how to configure xserver?
[12:41] <Hornet> ikonia: I'm not even sure it's that bug, it just happens to have similar symptoms
[12:41] <frylock^> hmmm. i took out my old cd drive and plugged in my new one. ubuntu does not seem to recognize it. i can see /dev/sdc0 /mount/cdrom0 in my /etc/fstab, however there is no /dev/sdc0 so i'm thinking that's the reason. bios does see it as secondary master.
[12:41] <ikonia> Hornet: ok, I can see from the kernel bug that it will stop apci probing
[12:41] <gordonjcp> familie: they also shut down a *huge* factory in the UK causing massive unemployment in a part of the country that's already fairly economically disadvantaged
[12:41] <k4u> i do get sound, but the monitor doesn't display anything
[12:41] <stdin> !xconfig | k4u
[12:41] <murlidhar> bascule: ok i have installed it my machine using sudo alien:)
[12:41] <ubotu> k4u: 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
[12:41] <ikonia> Hornet: its a work around, not a fix
[12:41] <gordonjcp> familie: in short, they're not a company I would buy products from
[12:41] <Crozar> i dont know but hes laptop is very very new =( ikonia and he says he wants ubuntu just because of me revealing him that ubuntu does not get infected by virus errors or spyware he was like 0_O
[12:42] <familie> gordonjcp, ok :/ so is there a list with supported manufacturers or somes where you *cant* do anything wrong?
[12:42] <ikonia> murlidhar mI strongly advise you to not use alien
[12:42] <gordonjcp> familie: have a look on linuxprinting.org
[12:42] <familie> my mom bought it because it was like 40
[12:42] <ikonia> Crozar lets cut to the chase, what do you want me to do
[12:42] <gordonjcp> familie: yeah, that's the problem
[12:42] <Crozar> ikonia: right now im looking for the hidden menu =/
[12:42] <murlidhar> ikonia: but i wanted to use the application which am not able to compile it
[12:42] <ikonia> Crozar you where border line trolling in #ubuntu+1 last night, and now your asking random questions - what do you want
[12:42] <gordonjcp> familie: a lot of cheap printers offload the hard work to the driver
[12:42] <ikonia> murlidhar what application
[12:42] <fragender> Is it possible to run stellarium with sensible speed on a notebook with Intel GMA950?
[12:42] <moreati> Dmitry_: gparted is paranoid, if you don't cleanly shutdown Windows or Linux, the filesystem will be marked as 'uncleanly unmounted' and gparted won't risk resizing it. Make sure you do a clean shutdown, then try again.
[12:43] <murlidhar> ikonia: linkage torrent client
[12:43] <frylock^> i took out my old cd drive and plugged in my new one. ubuntu does not seem to recognize it. i can see /dev/sdc0 /mount/cdrom0 in my /etc/fstab, however there is no /dev/sdc0 so i'm thinking that's the reason. bios does see it as secondary master. anybody knows how can i mount it properly?
[12:43] <Shrapnelhunter_>      /msg nickserv set hide email on
[12:43] <ikonia> murlidhar I strongly advise against alinee
[12:43] <ikonia> alien
[12:43] <Crozar> ikonia: i havent fixed the case of my cd drive and i posted the bug in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/149536
[12:43] <Crozar> ikonia: i just want to change the seconds for grub and make it default and fast
[12:43] <Helzibah> Hornet: did you try a different kernel image?
[12:43] <gordonjcp> familie: one of the criticisms levelled at Linux is that hardware support isn't that good - which to an extent is true.  But manufacturers produce Windows drivers but not Linux ones, y'see
[12:43] <murlidhar> ikonia: what should i do then http://code.google.com/p/linkage/wiki/Installation
[12:44] <gordonjcp> familie: now if a device works in a fairly "generic" way, or if it has well-documented interfaces, then it's easy to make a driver for it
[12:44] <chuxxsss> ikonia:going to try the Nvidia 6 series driver let hope I don't crash
[12:44] <murlidhar> ikonia: it requires libnotify0.4.4 but ubuntu has libnotify0.4.3
[12:44] <gordonjcp> familie: the answer is to find stuff that's known to work with Linux, buy it, and then tell the manufacturer that's why you bought it
[12:44] <gordonjcp> "I buy your products because they're well supported under Linux"
[12:44] <ikonia> murlidhar what version of ubuntu are you using
[12:45] <IndyGunFreak> chuxxsss: i just got mine back up and working, it was a pain.
[12:45] <murlidhar> ikonia: feisty
[12:45] <murlidhar> ikonia: 7.04
[12:45] <logik4> hi all
[12:45] <chuxxsss> I no it is if it goes wrong thanks IndyGunFreak
[12:45] <Helzibah> Hornet: 2.6.20-16 messed  up battery acpi on my old laptop, but -15 worked fine so I just copied the module across until it was fixed
[12:46] <ikonia> murlidhar looking at the link you sent me, it should work
[12:46] <familie> gordonjcp, yeh, I phoned Lexmark a couple of weeks ago and asked why they only had 2k2 redhat drivers on their page and the support guy said that - since he's in this job - people *NEVER* asked for Linux drivers yet..
[12:46] <IndyGunFreak> chuxxsss: it wsa a pain even while it went right...lol, dual displays just wouldn't work rihgt, but i have it now
[12:46] <frylock^> using ubuntu 7.04 (feisty). i took out my old cd-rom drive and plugged in my new one (creative rw 2440). ubuntu does not seem to recognize it. i can see /dev/sdc0 /mount/cdrom0 in my /etc/fstab, however there is no /dev/sdc0 so i'm thinking that's the reason. bios does see it as secondary master. anybody knows how can i mount it properly?

[12:48] <murlidhar> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39751/

[12:48] <chuxxsss> Any good ways to fix it? Indy
[12:48] <dam9> quick question :  which program does people use to import video from mini-dv cameras to a computer in ubuntu?
[12:48] <CountX> Dmitry_ i already did that
[12:48] <ikonia> Dmitry_ I think its unlimited
[12:48] <IndyGunFreak> well, my card is quite a bit newer than yours,

[12:49] <Dmitry_> CountX, probably a few. not too many.

[12:49] <CountX> Dmitry_ ive tried 2

[12:49] <chuxxsss> now I can't modify my driver in KDE
[12:49] <ikonia> murlidhar don't change the libnotify version

[12:51] <Crozar> ikonia: i need it because at october 18 il reinstall gutsy fresh
[12:51] <ikonia> Crozar its save in .history

[12:52] <murlidhar> ikonia: i am noobie but how can it have in fedora yum install if the dependency is tacking is wrong?
[12:52] <Dmitry_> actually,
[12:52] <ikonia> murlidhar fedroa is totally different
[12:52] <Crozar> theyr hidden =D
[12:52] <ikonia> murlidhar hence why I said don't use alien
[12:53] <Dmitry_> ikonia is probably more correct. your version of xchat may not support the command /j
[12:53] <Dmitry_> or it may. it's better to be safe.
[12:53] <IndyGunFreak> murlidhar: why are you here asking about fedora?.. and alien is a terrible idea
[12:53] <murlidhar> ikonia: should i say him that libnotify 0.4.4 is not available for feisty fawn
[12:53] <xcst> im looking for a nice antivirus for ubuntu? can someone suggest
[12:53] <ChildX> hello
[12:53] <ChildX> i need some help here
[12:53] <IndyGunFreak> !anvtivirus
[12:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about anvtivirus - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:54] <ikonia> murlidhar no - just question if libnotify4 is actually required, it could just be a typo in his dep checking
[12:54] <dam9> clamwin maybe?
[12:54] <logik4> xcst :clamscan
[12:54] <ChildX> anyone familiar with Launcher?
[12:54] <IndyGunFreak> ClamAV, and AVG just came out with their linux version of their AV software, its quite nice.
[12:54] <xcst> do you prefer limewire for ubuntu?
[12:54] <IndyGunFreak> i've got AVG on my laptop.

[12:54] <murlidhar> ikonia: i will do that right away
[12:54] <Dmitry_> !antivirus
[12:54] <ubotu> antivirus is something you don't really need on Linux, unless you serve windows clients. ClamAV and aegis are decent linux virusscanners. Also see !linuxvirus
[12:55] <Dmitry_> frylock^, i've seen that message four times now. :S
[12:55] <ikonia> murlidhar well done. its the correct way to do it. He is posting instructions for ubuntu that don't work - fix the instructions, not ubuntu
[12:55] <logik4> amd64 fan here?
[12:55] <dam9> quick question : is there any alternative to Kino for importing mini-dv video to a computer?
[12:55] <xcst> how about the counterpart for limewire
[12:55] <ikonia> logik4: ask the qeustion

[12:55] <ikonia> logik4: broken speaker/cable ?
[12:55] <ChildX> i want to run an application from the Panel... i want to run XMMS and the stream as well, not just xmms, cause that i know
[12:56] <ikonia> frylock^: what is your question
[12:56] <logik4> ikonia:  boot with windows=>  hardware, cable ok
[12:56] <murlidhar> ikonia: since i am a noobie just give the exact comments so that i can copy paste it
[12:56] <Dmitry_> frylock^, i see. some helpers get annoyed by repetition. however, i totally understand you. :)
[12:56] <logik4> speaker too
[12:56] <logik4> speakers too

[12:56] <IndyGunFreak> logik4: check your balances... maybe right speaker is turned off.
[12:56] <Dmitry_> [11:54:38]  <frylock^> using ubuntu 7.04 (feisty). i took out my old cd-rom drive and plugged in my new one (creative rw 2440). ubuntu does not seem to recognize it. i can see /dev/sdc0 /mount/cdrom0 in my /etc/fstab, however there is no /dev/sdc0 so i'm thinking that's the reason. bios does see it as secondary master. anybody knows how can i mount it properly?
[12:57] <bobby_> hello ; my question is  : does anybody know a good application for vocal command under ubuntu ( perlbox-voice looks nice but is not really working )
[12:57] <logik4> used Alsa mixer and balance ok
[12:57] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi
[12:57] <ikonia> murlidhar "hi your instructions to install on ubuntu appear to be wrong. The depencency checking says it needs libnotify 4.4 - however 4.3 is the latest available in ubuntu, is this correct or is your denendecny checking/instructions wrong"
[12:57] <sebrock> how can I access VPN server and internet at the same time???
[12:57] <ruben> I have Feisty as distro now, without any dual boot with an other distro. But now I want to instal Ubuntustudio 7.04 next to it. How do I make a dual boot?
[12:58] <frylock^> ikonia: using ubuntu 7.04 (feisty). i took out my old cd-rom drive and plugged in my new one (creative rw 2440). ubuntu does not seem to recognize it. i can see /dev/sdc0 /mount/cdrom0 in my /etc/fstab, however there is no /dev/sdc0 so i'm thinking that's the reason. bios does see it as secondary master. i do see /dev/hdc, when i gnome-mount -vtd /dev/hdc, i get an error about "bad fs, bad superblock (and so forth)"
[12:58] <ikonia> ruben the only way to really do it is to use different disks or a shared boot partition
[12:58] <ChildX> how can i make XMMS to be launched by clicking a button on the Panel and at the same time i want that a stream that i have saved in the file Internet Music.m3u to be executed
[12:58] <ChildX> ??
[12:58] <ikonia> frylock you've just said you can see /dev/sdc0 - then you tell me  there is no /dev/sdc0 ? which is it
[12:58] <ruben> I have ony one Hard disk, I don't think it is divided into partitions. what to do?
[12:58] <ChildX> what's the command then?
[12:59] <ikonia> ruben: why do you want to make this hard, just use ubuntustudio if thats what you want
[12:59] <ruben> and trow away the normal ubuntu?
[01:00] <ChildX> the command 'xmms /home/user/Intzernet Music.m3u' just opens xmms and does not use the m3u file... it opens a Choose file dialog...
[01:00] <frylock^> ikonia: i can see the line that goes "/dev/sdc0 /mount/cdrom0 utf,iso.... " line in my /etc/fstab. in /dev/ there is no "sdc0"
[01:00] <murlidhar> ikonia: done thnks
[01:00] <ChildX> the command 'xmms /home/user/Internet Music.m3u' just opens xmms and does not use the m3u file... it opens a Choose file dialog...
[01:00] <quattromaggio> ciao
[01:00] <ikonia> frylock^: ok - have you rebooted so udev can create one ?
[01:00] <stdin> ChildX: did you escape the space ?
[01:00] <ChildX> yeah
[01:00] <ruben> I don't now if ubuntustudio is suited for other things then media development
[01:00] <k4u> Right, server info has been set, but it still tells me: 'no screens found'
[01:00] <stdin> ChildX: xmms /home/user/Internet\ Music.m3u    < like that?
[01:00] <logik4> i found this : #14377
[01:00] <k4u> Right, server info has been set, but it still tells me: 'no screens found'
[01:00] <ChildX> then i tried renaming the file to Music.m3u and set the command accordingly
[01:01] <ruben> and also I first want to try it
[01:01] <ikonia> k4u don't use the server edition
[01:01] <ikonia> k4u use the desktop
[01:01] <ChildX> stdin, no
[01:01] <k4u> ikonia: it doesn't matter. i reinstalled.
[01:01] <ikonia> k4u use the desktop
[01:01] <frylock^> ikonia: yeah i did.
[01:01] <ChildX> my second command was 'xmms /home/user/Music.m3u'
[01:01] <ikonia> frylock^: do you have any /dev/scd devices
[01:01] <k4u> ikonia: Read! i reinstalled. but it STILL doesn't work!
[01:02] <ikonia> k4u drop the attitude, I asked you earlier what the errors where
[01:02] <quattromaggio> ciao

[01:02] <ChildX> i've changed the file Internet Music.m3u to Music.m3u
[01:02] <ikonia> k4u: use the desktop version - not the server version
[01:02] <MannyZ> HELLO, HOW I FORMAT MY UBUNTU? MY X IS MIXEDUP AND I WANT TO INSTALL 7.04 AGAIN

[01:03] <ikonia> !caps >mannyz
[01:03] <ChildX> is this a possible bug in Ubuntu feisty?
[01:03] <MannyZ> ikonia pls
[01:03] <ktostaki> Will I can send mails throught mutt?
[01:03] <ikonia> frylock thats very odd, try lshw see if you can see it
[01:03] <ChildX> or probably a bug in GNOME
[01:03] <ubuntu__> hey guys, anyone here running an 8800gts?
[01:03] <ChildX> huh?
[01:03] <k4u> anyone else who can help me with this apart from ikonia?
[01:03] <ikonia> k4u: lets fix your desktop install issues
[01:03] <ubuntu__> k4u whats wrong
[01:04] <k4u> ubuntu__: I have installed ubuntu-desktop, but it tells me: 'no screens found'
[01:04] <xcst> i like to watch dvd and movies in my laptop, is preferrable that i install medibuntu?
[01:04] <ubuntu__> and has anyone here installed an 8800gts on ubuntu feisty?
[01:04] <ubuntu__> what graphics card are youusing
[01:04] <ChildX> please help me or i'll start cursing
[01:04] <logik4> issue:  Ubuntu live CD, AMD64 turion, Presario V6000, Nvidia:  Failed to boot BCM
[01:04] <ikonia> ubuntu__ yes
[01:04] <k4u> ubuntu__ Nvidea
[01:04] <ikonia> ubuntu__ 8800
[01:04] <jimcooncat> looking for a more robust terminal app, multiple sessions, let me send one command to all?
[01:05] <ikonia> k4u fix the issues on the desktop cd - rather than messing witht he server edition
[01:05] <linxeh> jimcooncat: multiple xterms ?
[01:05] <linxeh> :P
[01:05] <ChildX> now you deserved it
[01:05] <frylock^> ikonia: it sees it, in ide-1, logical name: /dev/hdc
[01:05] <ubuntu__> wait
[01:05] <k4u> ubuntu__: could it be becaus i'm trying it on an HP?
[01:05] <ChildX> die you selfish mother-fuckers
[01:05] <ikonia> k4u: this is desktop for your dad - desktop edition is more suited to desktop use
[01:05] <stdin> !language | ChildX
[01:05] <ubotu> ChildX: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:05] <ikonia> stdin: just ban that
[01:05] <jimcooncat> linxeh: like screen but with a better interface
[01:05] <k4u> ikonia: i HAVE installed the desktop cd! o'
[01:05] <ChildX> oh now you've noticed me
[01:05] <ubuntu__> ikonia did u install an 8800 b4?
[01:05] <k4u> ikonia; i'm not stupid...
[01:05] <ikonia> k4u no you've not, as you've told me your installing gnome-desktop
[01:05] <ChildX> you sick fuck
[01:05] <ubuntu__> what model nvidia card k4u
[01:05] <thedonvaughn> ChildX: mad because you're not getting free volunteered help?
[01:05] <ikonia> gnome-desktop is already installed on the desktop
[01:06] <ikonia> ubuntu__ yes
[01:06] <linxeh> jimcooncat: you can probably achieve what you want with screen and emacs ;-)
[01:06] <k4u> ubuntu__: uhm.. woulnd't kknow actualy... how to find?:| i have no package or some sort...
[01:06] <frylock^> ikonia: when i gnome-mount -vtd /dev/hdc, it says something about bad fs, bad superblock. i can fetch the full message if you want.
[01:06] <jimcooncat> linxeh: no doubt, only takes a year to learn?
[01:06] <ubuntu__> did it work, i tried b4 and now im on the live cd wundering if i should because i dont think it will work
[01:06] <ikonia> frylock sounds a good idea
[01:06] <ikonia> ubuntu__ livecd is tricky, you have to use the 3rd party nvidia drivers
[01:07] <ubuntu__> no no no
[01:07] <ubuntu__> i mean
[01:07] <ubuntu__> if i install it will it work
[01:07] <murlidhar> ikonia: if u notice there is no mention of libnotify0.4.4 here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39754/
[01:07] <ubuntu__> apparently in 7.10 deta they fixed it
[01:07] <k4u> afk-> taking a shower...
[01:07] <linxeh> jimcooncat: or longer :) you never stop learning (like anything)
[01:07] <ikonia> ubuntu__ not out of the box
[01:07] <ubuntu__> but i dont want to
[01:07] <ubuntu__> beta*
[01:07] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu__: fixed what?
[01:07] <ikonia> ubuntu__ they updated the driver in 7.10 - thats what "fixed" it
[01:07] <ubuntu__> the 8800gts issue
[01:07] <linxeh> jimcooncat: I can't think of anything that does what you want off hand, but there might be something out there (tried looking on freshmeat?)
[01:07] <IndyGunFreak> ah..
[01:07] <logik4> bcm case also?
[01:07] <ubuntu__> it crashes X when i install the official driver
[01:08] <jimcooncat> linxeh: oh yeah freshmeat. thanks, I forgot
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu__: ya i've read that
[01:08] <ubuntu__> i tried envy
[01:08] <ubuntu__> but that sucked
[01:08] <linxeh> jimcooncat: multi-gnome terminal ?
[01:08] <ubuntu__> the reso kept changing
[01:08] <ikonia> ubuntu__: I've just told you the situation
[01:08] <ubuntu__> i had to always reset to my screen reso every time i restarted and played a full screen game
[01:08] <linxeh> jimcooncat: mrxvt?
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> my 7800 works fine...
[01:09] <logik4> Linux on Laptop: http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/compaq.html
[01:09] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: because its supported
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> ya.. :)
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> supported video cards, ftw!
[01:09] <ubuntu__> oh i see, ive got the 7.10 beta disk here could i just use those drivers
[01:10] <linxeh> jimcooncat: heheheheh multixterm looks quite interesting /
[01:10] <ubuntu__> somehow
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu__: have you looked at Restricted driver mgr in System/Admin?
[01:10] <thedonvaughn> ubuntu__: uhm, if u need nvidia drivers that you're going to compile your own, why not download them from nvidia?
[01:10] <ubuntu__> yep
[01:10] <ikonia> ubuntu__ no
[01:10] <ubuntu__> thats what crashed them
[01:10] <ikonia> ubuntu__ I've explained the situation, I'll do it one more time. The drivers in 7.04 do not support the 8800 card
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu__: what did it say in restricted driver mgr
[01:10] <Crozar> ikonia: do you play games?
[01:10] <frylock^> ikonia: ok, it tells me wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock when reading /dev/hdc. it also suggests me to dmesg
[01:10] <thedonvaughn> ubuntu__: if it's necesasry, you're not forced to wait for ubuntu to package it for you.  Just install it yourself.
[01:10] <jimcooncat> thanks linxeh I'm checking 'em all
[01:10] <ikonia> ubuntu__ you either have to update to the drivers on nvidia.com
[01:11] <ubuntu__> ok, the restricted driver manager crashed my system and so did the nvidia drivers
[01:11] <ikonia> ubuntu__ or use ubuntu 7.10 - where they have updated teh drivers for you
[01:11] <frylock^> ikonia: when i dmesg | tail, i see EXT3-fs: cannot read superblock
[01:11] <ubuntu__> lol
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: i thought he was using gutsy?
[01:11] <ikonia> frylock its trying to mount it as a ext3 file system, not a cdrom
[01:11] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak nah 7.04
[01:11] <Crozar> ikonia: nvidia8800 not supported with ubuntu~!
[01:11] <ubuntu__> i got that
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: well that explains my confusion..lol
[01:11] <frylock^> ikonia: what is the vfstype for a cd-rom?
[01:11] <ikonia> Crozar the driver sin 7.10 work
[01:12] <ubuntu__> the 7.10 beta isnt installing, anyone here installed it (just want to clarify sumthing)
[01:12] <ikonia> frylock it should work it out auto, but it looks like hdc is not your cdrom, do "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdc" see what it says
[01:12] <ikonia> ubuntu__ yes I have it installed
[01:12] <ubuntu__> ok
[01:12] <ikonia> and the support channel is #ubuntu+1
[01:12] <ubuntu__> ok
[01:13] <frylock^> ikonia: it says nothing
[01:13] <ikonia> frylock^: ok - so that looks like the cdrom
[01:13] <ikonia> frylock^: actually can you post the output in a pastebin please
[01:13] <er4z0r> hi
[01:14] <frylock^> ikonia: the output of the command or the dmesg | tail
[01:14] <Crozar> ikonia: when you mean by drivers for gfx card you mean old not so old or new? in windows they go by versions and each has its own featuer like opengl1.4 or opengl 2.3 ect..
[01:14] <ikonia> frylock^: no "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdc"
[01:14] <ikonia> Crozar: please stop talking about nosense topics
[01:14] <er4z0r> cannot get my wireless-card to work
[01:14] <Crozar> whats nonsense? who doesnt want new drivers ?
[01:15] <er4z0r> Crozar: people who are well with te old ones?
[01:15] <french-kiss> hello i download today the new openoffice
[01:15] <frylock^> ikonia: it has no output at all, it just asks me for may pw, then it just goes back to shell
[01:15] <french-kiss> but now thats many package
[01:15] <Crozar> ikonia: last year drivers was about 80.78 right? now we've reached 160 version in windows
[01:15] <ikonia> frylock^: thats worrying
[01:15] <french-kiss> how can i install all the package
[01:15] <ikonia> frylock^: is there a cdrom in the drive
[01:15] <ikonia> Crozar I'm not interested
[01:16] <frylock^> ikonia: yerp, the ubuntu feisty 7.04 installation cd :)
[01:16] <ikonia> frylock^: thats not good, it looks like ubuntu cannot see your cdrom at all
[01:16] <Crozar> why???> ikonia on windows version 80 last year got Doom3 fps down to 58 FRAMES PER SECOND , but now this year same card on windows updated drivers to 160 it gave 88 FPS STABLED~
[01:16] <ikonia> frylock^: did you say lshw can see it
[01:16] <ikonia> Crozar please stop disscussing this with me, I'm not interested
[01:16] <frylock^> ikonia: yes, in ide-1, logical name: /dev/hdc.
[01:16] <Crozar> whY! :(
[01:16] <ikonia> frylock did it identify the cdrom ok
[01:17] <Crozar> ikonia: because your fed up of telling people that answer?
[01:17] <frylock^> yeah, creative rw
[01:17] <logik4> btw:  Any interesting games to suggest ?
[01:17] <ikonia> frylock thats good.
[01:17] <ikonia> frylock^: can you show me "ls -la /dev/hdc"
[01:17] <Crozar> ikonia: ok what about ati?
[01:17] <ikonia> Crozar last request before I put you on ignore. Stop discussing this with me, I'm not interested
[01:18] <Dalehead> Hi everyone....Can anyone help me out with a screen resolution problem?
[01:18] <Crozar> k
[01:18] <murlidhar> ikonia: i forgot to tell u that i already installed the client using sudo alien and it has installed without any errors but it does not open
[01:18] <ikonia> Dalehead: sure
[01:18] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: can you tell me about ATI?
[01:18] <Dalehead> Thanks, i'll try to explain
[01:18] <ikonia> murlidhar uninstall it
[01:18] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: only thing i can tell you is it sucks.
[01:18] <ikonia> !ati >Crozar
[01:18] <Dalehead> I've read all FAQ's, and had partial success, but now no more progress
[01:18] <ikonia> Crozar: read that
[01:18] <DjViper> ati works
[01:18] <IndyGunFreak> !ati
[01:18] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:18] <Dalehead> I have a Shuttle PC with an integrated Radeon 9100 gfx
[01:19] <Burdon> Hei ikonia, me again. Maybe you could help me? I installed the printer. Everything worked fine. But I cannot find die printer in the menu and in programms. Do you have an idea?
[01:19] <frylock^> ikonia: brw-rw----- 1 root cdrom 22, 0 2007-10-06 11:52 /dev/hdc
[01:19] <Dalehead> i'm using a Dell Widescreen 20" monitor
[01:19] <_Argasm> I've just installed 7.10 release 2 and I cannot seem to get the wireless working properly...  Did all the same stuff in 7.04 (get dnsmasq/ipmasq/firestarter) and entered all the settings in /etc/network/interfaces for wlan0... but the damn thing wont flash and start up... any ideas ???
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> DjViper: for some it does i'm sure...  i never got my 9550 to work...
[01:19] <murlidhar> ikonia: but the terminal gives the error of libcurl do u think even that is not supported?
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> DjViper: do you have the 3d drivers installed?
[01:19] <DjViper> IndyGunFreak: did you try the latest driver?
[01:19] <Dalehead> I can't get any resolution options greater than 1280x1024 to appear, and have followed the excellent guide on the forums
[01:19] <ikonia> frylock thats good, it looks like it "knows" its a cdrom so udev created the correct device
[01:19] <DjViper> IndyGunFreak: yep, and compiz fusion etc
[01:19] <murlidhar> ikonia: yes  i will uninstall it
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> DjViper: this was like a year ago, i've long since ditched that card and went Nvidia.
[01:19] <Dalehead> i guess hoping someone more experienced may be able to help with my checklist of tried things
[01:19] <DjViper> all working wonderfully
[01:19] <DjViper> ah okay
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> DjViper: awesome.
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> Nvidia is way easier, i'll say that
[01:20] <DjViper> IndyGunFreak: and Im using a 9600 mobility card
[01:20] <logik4> Dalehead:  have you look into xorg.conf file?
[01:20] <DjViper> true
[01:20] <frylock^> ikonia: you know what, i'll plug it to my windoze box, see if it works fine. maybe the cd-rom is f*cked
[01:20] <Dalehead> yes, and a friend who is more knowledgable than me tried to edit it
[01:20] <ikonia> Dalehead: what we need to do is look at your /var/Xorg.0.log file and see why it can't see higher resoluitions
[01:20] <logik4> and?
[01:20] <ikonia> frylock^: careful on the language please, its not needed
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> DjViper: i think part of my problem was it being dual screen, it would never run dual screen right... whereas Nvidia its easy to set up
[01:20] <Dalehead> it ended up screwed, so we ran the utility that resets things, chose vesa and now i can get 1280
[01:21] <frylock^> ikonia: ok will be. i'll see if the cd-rom is faulty :)
[01:21] <frylock^> ttyl thanks!
[01:21] <ikonia> frylock^: cool
[01:21] <Dalehead> ok, how is it best for me to get that info to you?  Just paste it here?

I've gone through forums last couple of hours and nothing helps what's suggested so far. I have menu.lst, device.map and even mentioned stage1 in place and fstab and mtab look fine too...
[01:29] <GuHHH> can anyone help me? i can't unzip a file: http://paste.debian.net/38933
[01:29] <ok21> stdin:thanks a lot man
[01:29] <ciphergoth> Just installed Gutsy beta on my new Windows XP laptop.  I'd expected that it would be dual-boot by the time I'd finished, but no menu appears at boot time.  Did something go wrong?
[01:29] <ikonia> GuHHH: are you using ubuntu ?
[01:29] <ikonia> ciphergoth: /join #ubuntu+1 for gusty support

[01:32] <ikonia> Dalehead I asked for the log file, not the config file
[01:32] <Dalehead> yes, that's what i'd like, but it doesn't appear as an option
[01:32] <GuHHH> ikonia: yes, why?
[01:32] <Dalehead> Oh sorry..... which log file?

[01:38] <murlidhar> arnath: root(hd1,0)
[01:38] <jrib> GuHHH: it looks like an issue with your file.  Does it unzip in Debian?
[01:38] <murlidhar> arnath: setup (hd0)
[01:39] <Crozar> dog_boy: with 7.10 Gutsy you have the option with eyecandy you can switch by ur mouse easily , but on 7.04 you must edit your xorg.conf file and have TV CRT inserted
[01:39] <GuHHH> jrib: no, doesnt on debian neither ubuntu
[01:39] <arnath> murlidhar: it would have to be root (hd1,1), i fink (thats the bootable linux partition)
[01:39] <GuHHH> ikonia: its not debian... damn! ;D
[01:40] <jrib> GuHHH: then it's an issue with the file
[01:40] <stdin> GuHHH: then the file is corrupt

[01:40] <murlidhar> arnath: remember to type "quit" to quit grub and if u r
[01:40] <arnath> murlidhar: did that

[01:44] <schopra> Folks, I've been trying to install pdfedit and keep getting some errors related to libc6
[01:44] <wii> how do i find out my monitor horizontal and vertical values?
[01:44] <schopra> I've tried three different installation methods (the recommended ones at the pdfedit page) and no dice
[01:45] <Dalehead> VESA i think was chosen because when I tried to install the ATI driver, we ended up with Gnome not booting, and had to run the GPK tool (forget full name)
[01:45] <Dalehead> logik4: Did you have to install your driver manually, or was it auto detected at install?
[01:45] <Parthenicos> grnet
[01:46] <moko> ..LOL first crash on gutzy
[01:46] <logik4> yes i did
[01:46] <schopra> I ran sudo to install libc6 but it insistst that libc6 is already the newest version
[01:46] <logik4> a little pain in the ...
[01:46] <Dalehead> yeah, i tried it following the guide, and each time i've ended up with the boot failure
[01:46] <logik4> maybe because of dual screen setting
[01:46] <stdin> schopra: are you compiling by any chance?
[01:47] <Dalehead> considering a clean re-install
[01:47] <arnath> im adding windows to grub menu.lst, which fields are required? title & root obviously, but what else?
[01:47] <logik4> use the fglx tool
[01:47] <arnath> chainloader +1 <- what does it do and is it necessary?
[01:47] <schopra> stdin: No, I just ran the the two recommended sudos, then wget to get the package
[01:47] <logik4> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[01:47] <schopra> and then alien on on the rpm
[01:47] <Kopfgeldjaeger> i want to move all files with a " in their name into the folder here/. whats wrong with this [although it does work it gives an error message] : find ./ -name '*"*'  -exec mv {} here/ \;
[01:47] <Dalehead> Thanks for the help logik4, i'll go try again :)
[01:47] <Dalehead> appreciate it
[01:47] <mechdave> arnath: yes it is required for windows
[01:48] <logik4> http://www.rage3d.com/content/articles/atilinuxhowto/
[01:48] <schopra> its a bit strange
[01:48] <arnath> mechdave: anything else i have to put in? (title, root, chainloader+1 and ? )
[01:48] <stdin> schopra: it's probably an old package or just has the wrong info in it. alien isn't a good way to install packages
[01:48] <logik4> once you modify xorg file...
[01:48] <logik4> restart gdm
[01:48] <schopra> stdin: I've just been following the instructions here:
[01:48] <schopra> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PDFedit
[01:49] <Dalehead> just via a system reboot?
[01:49] <logik4> http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html
[01:49] <schopra> stdin: what seems to be common to all three methods on that page is that when I follow them, the installation craps out at the last stage
[01:49] <mechdave> arnath: yeah, should be title line then rootnoverify and then chainloader +1
[01:49] <CH1P> how to allot swap partition?
[01:49] <Dalehead> You still chose Radeon from the download site, or FireGL?
[01:49] <logik4> http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon-prer200.html
[01:49] <arnath> mechdave: rootnoverify instead of root?
[01:49] <Dalehead> wonder if i'm confusing that somewhere
[01:50] <mechdave> arnath: yes
[01:50] <arnath> mechdave: ok thx
[01:50] <stdin> schopra: you may have to use the older package for now http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org/pool/edgy/3v1n0/pdfedit_0.2.5-0+3v1ubuntu1_i386.deb

[01:51] <stdin> schopra: when gutsy is out and you upgrade you'll get the newer package
[01:51] <ikonia> jcs re-install is your best beyt
[01:51] <schopra> aha, that sounds right
[01:51] <mechdave> arnath: Bewdy, glad to be of help! :)
[01:52] <ok21> please help
[01:52] <arnath> mechdave: :D

[01:56] <Dalehead> ./ati-installer.sh: 165: Syntax error: Bad substitution
[01:57] <Dalehead> that's installing the proprietary linux driver

[01:58] <logik4> Dalehead: let me check

[01:58] <Yodude> how come when i right click on the desktop, then i click "create document" i get no options ??? In KDE i go get them but nothing in gnome

[02:00] <arnath> hmm strange, my windows drive is in fstab, but its not auto-mounting?
[02:00] <logik4> ok
[02:01] <murlidhar> arnath: it is better to use ntfs-3g than touching the fstab
[02:02] <arnath> ntfs-3g?
[02:02] <AndrewB> !ntfs-3g > arnath (see pm)
[02:03] <arnath> is it "reliable" yet?
[02:03] <murlidhar> just sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g and sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[02:03] <arnath> i have no real need to write to my windows drive
[02:04] <murlidhar> arnath: it gives an option to delete viruses from windows xp:)
[02:04] <arnath> murlidhar: hah, nice one :D
[02:04] <arnath> murlidhar: but the xp is purely for gaming, i dont anticipate virusses
[02:05] <kyja> I have a duplicate item in my places menu... any idea;s how to get er gone ?
[02:05] <murlidhar> arnath: u never know trojans are a common if u play multiplayer

[02:06] <Dalehead> logik4: Thanks for your help, i'm going to try a re-install, and then the links you sent previously.  A friend of mine has worked on this machine, so knowing eveything is clean may help

[02:14] <nonix4> as usual, already reported as #102394 ... but w/ a slightly different context.
[02:17] <salox> some basic applications like test editors and html editors, moves really slow. Lot of CPU used, and image is fragmented when scroll left and right in  the text window. Other applications runs good like GIMP. What can i do to move it faster ? I have a 900Mhz Duron, 512 Mb RAM. What is the reason for so much processor usage? Kernel problem ?
[02:17] <salox> text
[02:19] <lamego> salox, you understand that is very old system to run graphical apps, right ?
[02:19] <kditty> i have a problem, i cant type into any apps with my keyboard, right now i have to go into a terminal and type-copy-paste what i want to say. anyone know what might be causing this?
[02:19] <lamego> you should use xubuntu, and just light apps
[02:19] <salox> i use xubuntu
[02:19] <salox> but
[02:19] <salox> to much processor usage for what
[02:19] <salox> ...
[02:20] <salox> text editor
[02:20] <salox> ?
[02:20] <broken> I need some help, I'm looking for xlib6g and I can't find/install it.
[02:20] <kditty> also only the enter button on my numberpad will work to send to this chann
[02:20] <opt> hi, i am an Ubuntu newbie, help me.
[02:20] <lamego> salox, for the graphical libraries processing ?
[02:20] <jcs> salox: you could try disabling text antialiasing in font options.
[02:20] <lamego> broken, are you sure that is the library name your are needing ?
[02:20] <salox> maybe is an ideea
[02:20] <broken> lamego: yes. It says that its not satisfied when I am trhying to install this guitar tuner.
[02:20] <salox> but
[02:21] <salox> in mandriva
[02:21] <salox> moves much faster
[02:21] <salox> i686 kernel
[02:21] <salox> maybe is this another reason
[02:21] <jcs> salox: in that case it could well be a problem with your X configuration.  What kind of graphics card are you using?
[02:21] <broken> lamego: im reading in some documentation that lib6 is also known as glibc, i've tried looking for glibc by searching "glibc" but it didn't come up with anything.
[02:22] <salox> geforce 4 MX 440
[02:22] <lamego> broken, you are looking for the core C library, if you are going to compile you just need to install: build-essential
[02:22] <kyja> I have a duplicate item in my places menu... any idea;s how to get er gone ?
[02:22] <lamego> that includes libc6-dev
[02:22] <lamego> kyja, /usr/share/applications
[02:22] <jcs> salox: in the "Device" section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf, do you have the "nv" driver or the "nvidia" driver?
[02:23] <salox> nvidia
[02:23] <broken> lamego: build-essential is already the newest version
[02:23] <lamego> broken, that means you have libc6 already :)
[02:23] <lamego> broken, what are you trying to achieve ?
[02:23] <ganesh> lamego:how to install .bin file in ubuntu?
[02:23] <jcs> salox: in that case I'm out of ideas, apart from comparing your mandriva and ubuntu xorg.conf files to see if there could be critical differences
[02:23] <jcs> salox: unless you're using desktop effects of course
[02:23] <lamego> ganadist, a bin file is usualy a binary or script, chmod u+x file.bin; file./bin
[02:23] <lamego> on the terminal
[02:23] <salox> games like chromium moves ok
[02:23] <broken> lamego: i am trying to open this stupid "executable" file..
[02:24] <broken> And I double click it and nothing happens.
[02:24] <lamego> broken, you can open executables on linux by just click on them
[02:24] <lamego> this is not windows :)
[02:24] <lamego> you can not
[02:24] <broken> lol
[02:24] <salox> i don't understand why is used so much processor for thext moving on the screen
[02:24] <salox> text
[02:24] <kyja> lamego, places menu. I have to desktop selectors. :(
[02:24] <jrib> yes you can...
[02:25] <Innomen> Whenever i trying to reinstall or remove ndiswrapper "E: /var/cache/apt/archives/ndiswrapper-common_1.38-1ubuntu1_all.deb: trying to overwrite `/sbin/loadndisdriver', which is also in package ndiswrapper"
[02:25] <jcs> salox: are you using Feisty or Gutsy?
[02:25] <salox> is there any i686 kernel for ubuntu pls ?
[02:25] <broken> lamego: ./gstring-dynamic-i386: error while loading shared libraries: libdrfftw.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:25] <jcs> salox: it is really unlikely to be a kernel issue.
[02:25] <broken> lol
[02:25] <lamego> broken, that binary depends on a library which you do not have installed
[02:25] <salox> feisty i think . Xubuntu 7.04
[02:26] <broken> jesus christ. librariers :d
[02:26] <jrib> Innomen: are you mixing repos?
[02:26] <Innomen> jrib: no idea
[02:26] <broken> lamego: could you perhaps enlighten me to which library that is?
[02:26] <dam9> hi, i am a new ubuntu user (switched from windows) and all is going well, google works like a charm but I just have a quick question:  what program do people commonly use to encode videos into XVID format in Ubuntu?
[02:27] <broken> google works like a charm lol..
[02:27] <lamego> broken, that library is not available on any of the ubuntu repositories packages
[02:27] <ikonia> dam9: you asked this eariler, mencoder is good, with any front end
[02:27] <broken> of all the things that could go wrong, googles going to be always working.
[02:27] <Innomen> broken: yea that means he/she can get to the net
[02:27] <lamego> broken, usually the INSTALL or README does help
[02:27] <broken> And I've read that.
[02:27] <salox> with i386 kernel the x686 instructions is not used i know, and this result in a slow CPU
[02:27] <jrib> Innomen: where does the new ndiswrapper come from? and the new one?
[02:27] <broken> So you are telling me there is no support for this?
[02:27] <Innomen> broken: you're an even bigger $%^&* than i am aren't ya, shocking.
[02:27] <lamego> broken, what software are you tring to install ?
[02:27] <dam9> ikonia, earlier i asked something different about importing dv, now i asked about encoding to xvid, thank you very much for your answer
[02:28] <broken> lamego: anything from here http://linux-sound.org/guitar.html
[02:28] <broken> Nothing has worked yet.
[02:28] <salox> could be significant speed improvements if i use an i686 kernel ?
[02:28] <Innomen> jrib: the old one probably came form a package i downloaded, and the new one is from sudo apt-get, i'd happy remove either to reinstall heheh
[02:28] <broken> (in tuners)
[02:28] <lamego> broken, running "executables" download from somewhere is not the best way to run software on linux :P
[02:28] <broken> This link was in the ubunut forums.
[02:28] <broken> So shoot me for reading the forums ;)
[02:29] <jrib> Innomen: remove the old one first
[02:29] <lamego> there is a lot of wrong things on the forums ;)
[02:29] <shiznit> i need help with startup programs, i removed them from the autortart list and they still autostart
[02:29] <Innomen> jrib: as i said i get the same error regardless of telling it to install reinstall ..or remove
[02:29] <arnath> hmm, i'm getting "No DHCPOFFERS received" from dhclient eth1, anyone know if this could be a linux problem? (or is my dhcp server down?)
[02:29] <lamego> broken, that software is a bit out dated. have you tried to find an equivalent software on the repositories
[02:29] <broken> so... cough.. im not going to able to tune my guitar :(
[02:30] <broken> yea guess not a lot of guitar players use ubuntu
[02:30] <broken> :|
[02:30] <lamego> broken, have you tried gtkguitune ?
[02:30] <jrib> Innomen: pastebin the command and output
[02:30] <lamego> broken, why do you say that :) ?
[02:30] <Innomen> broken: alot of guitar players use a 10$ device from musican's friend ot tune thier guitars :P
[02:30] <ikonia> broken: I play guitar and use ubuntu
[02:30] <lamego> I see some guitar software on the ubuntu repositories
[02:30] <broken> Because I've seen like 4 tuners.
[02:30] <broken> lol
[02:30] <Innomen> jrib: one moment
[02:30] <broken> yea I can't be bothered tho :D
[02:30] <shiznit> ikonia, can you help me for a se
[02:30] <shiznit> sec*
[02:30] <lamego> there is a gtkguitune
[02:31] <Innomen> broken: *insert dismissive comment here* then
[02:31] <ikonia> shiznit I hope so, what is the problem
[02:31] <broken> normally I tune by ear, but this is a first tune after being restrung. On windows I normally used AP tuner.
[02:31] <shiznit> i added a couple programs to the autostart list and now i cant get rid of them
[02:31] <ikonia> shiznit: such as, and how did you add them
[02:31] <magnetron> why isn't the applications menu icons cached?
[02:32] <Innomen> is there a command like for remove? like sudo apt-remove?
[02:32] <shiznit> system, preferences, session
[02:32] <broken> lamego: ok fine, one second as I try to install this.
[02:32] <ikonia> Innomen: apt-get remove
[02:32] <Innomen> jheheh
[02:32] <Innomen> get remove
[02:32] <ikonia> shiznit what did you add, and what happens when you try to remove
[02:32] <arnath> i'm getting "No DHCPOFFERS received" from dhclient eth1, anyone know if this could be a linux problem? (or is my dhcp server down?)
[02:33] <ikonia> arnath: what is your dhcp server ?
[02:33] <arnath> ikonia: my router
[02:33] <shiznit> ikonia, i added fusio-icon and avant-window-navigator, i dont really need them so i removed them from the list and they still autostart
[02:33] <Innomen> jrib: i cant do it command line, sorry
[02:33] <broken> lamego: basically a bunch of main.cc:393: error: win was not declared in this scope
[02:33] <ikonia> arnath: is eth1 plugged into your router ?
[02:33] <broken> main.cc:400: error: kit was not declared in this scope
[02:33] <arnath> ikonia: yes, but i'll recheck the connection, just a sec
[02:33] <Innomen> jrib: which means no pasting a command here, you givin up? :)
[02:33] <ikonia> shiznit I see, thats unusual. Does it still show in the list ?
[02:33] <shiznit> ikonia, and a instance of filemanager autostarts too
[02:34] <shiznit> ikonia, no they are gone from the list
[02:34] <jrib> Innomen: sudo apt-get remove PACKAGE
[02:34] <ikonia> shiznit: ahhh I think I know what could be happening
[02:34] <arnath> ikonia: hmm, the  cables are all still in place, but the light indicating a connection (on the mobo) isnt on
[02:34] <Bo^Dick> i recently bought an asus EN8500GT, was this a very poor choice for ubuntu?
[02:34] <ganesh> lamego:its not working
[02:34] <shiznit> im on gutsy btw, sry if this is the wrong channel
[02:34] <lamego> broken, uh ? have you installed it from repositories ?
[02:35] <broken> lamego: its there/
[02:35] <ikonia> shiznit try closing all your applications down, then logging out of gnome - not rebooting or shuttding down, just logging out clean
[02:35] <broken> wtf... lol
[02:35] <erUSUL> !nvidia | Bo^Dick
[02:35] <ubotu> Bo^Dick: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:35] <arnath> Bo^Dick: i have a 8600gts working, should be fine
[02:35] <lamego> broken, why are you compiling software which is available at one click install ?
[02:35] <shiznit> ikonia, how?
[02:35] <broken> lamego: lol
[02:35] <phdocq> Since a few days, after update, my USB devices do not mount anymore? Anybody has a suggetison
[02:35] <ikonia> arnath dead cable ?
[02:35] <broken> beats me :D
[02:35] <ikonia> shiznit hit the logout button
[02:35] <lamego> broken, Add/Remove programs is a good place to start
[02:35] <swarm> arnath, I have 8600GTS too. good card
[02:35] <arnath> ikonia: that would be an amazing coincidence :|
[02:35] <shiznit> ikonia, and waht then
[02:35] <arnath> swarm: ah good to hear, i havent been able to benchmark it yet at home :p
[02:36] <ikonia> shiznit once you have logged out, log in
[02:36] <swarm> mine is overclocked quite a bit
[02:36] <ikonia> shiznit I think gnome is doing session restore
[02:36] <broken> I just hope it doesn't crap out on the servers..
[02:36] <prestosd> hey
[02:36] <Innomen> jrib:  ""The following packages have unmet dependencies: ndiswrapper-utils-1.9: Depends: ndiswrapper-common but it is not going to be installed"
[02:36] <Bo^Dick> actually i've read the guide already and was warned that all use of these cards were totally non-supported, non-guaranteed and so on
[02:36] <broken> lamego: I know linux lik ethe back of my hand.
[02:36] <ganesh>  lamego:chmod u+x file(abc).bin is not working
[02:36] <Innomen> wait
[02:36] <Innomen> brb
[02:36] <Bo^Dick> thus making me ask this
[02:37] <swarm> arnath, you have 256mb or 512mb? what brand? evga? asus?
[02:37] <arnath> ikonia: i booted into windows, it works just fine there
[02:37] <arnath> swarm: 256, with hdmi, brand: pov
[02:37] <ikonia> arnath: then your network card is not enabled under linux
[02:37] <DoggyDude> Hi all
[02:37] <arnath> ikonia: it was working yesterday :s
[02:37] <arnath> ikonia: so what do i do?
[02:37] <swarm> Bo^Dick, http://www.overclock.net/linux-unix-mac/236883-faq-nvidia-ubuntu.html#post2730171
[02:37] <jrib> Innomen: remove all the old ndiswrapper stuff
[02:37] <shiznit> ikonia, you were right.  it keeps restoring them.   i only disabled session restoring though
[02:37] <ikonia> arnath investigate why its not working
[02:37] <lamego> ganesh, what software are you trying to install ?
[02:38] <Innomen> jrib: I'm trying
[02:38] <arnath> ikonia: how do i do that?
[02:38] <ikonia> shiznit so your working now ?
[02:38] <pawan> when is the new version coming out
[02:38] <Innomen> keeps saying dependencies
[02:38] <shiznit> ikonia, well the programs keep getting restored.  i dont want them
[02:38] <ikonia> arnath have you got 2 network cards in this machine
[02:38] <jrib> Innomen: pastebin the command and output
[02:38] <shiznit> ikonia, how can i get a clean session? session restore is disabled
[02:38] <arnath> ikonia: just the one i believe (i find it strange that its called eth1 but hey)
[02:38] <ikonia> shiznit there is something in session mangment about session restores
[02:38] <ikonia> shiznit: you can cheat and remove .gnome from your home dir
[02:38] <Innomen> jrib: give me a command that will remove it all
[02:39] <Innomen> jrib: dude i have
[02:39] <Innomen> jrib: twice now
[02:39] <broken> lamego: you have to explain to me, what are you typing in "Add/remove" to get gtkguitune.
[02:39] <ikonia> arnath can you pastebin the output of "sudo ifconfig -a" please
[02:39] <gara> hola
[02:39] <gara> alguien que hable espaol
[02:39] <shiznit> how do i get .gnome back then
[02:39] <lamego> broken, erm, do you have gnome installed ?
[02:39] <arnath> ikonia: ok, just a sec
[02:39] <shiznit> i dont wanna lose my desktop
[02:39] <ikonia> shiznitahh right
[02:40] <ChildX> hello
[02:40] <lamego> if you did a start install, you do have an Add/Remove menu entry
[02:40] <lamego> if you do not
[02:40] <broken> i do.
[02:40] <shiznit> this session saver thing is broken
[02:40] <ikonia> shiznit thats a pain, I not sure why session restore is doing it. try .session - remove it
[02:40] <broken> But I cannot find the package.
[02:40] <Innomen> jrib: sudo apt-get remove (anything ndsi) results in "The following packages have unmet dependencies: ndiswrapper-utils-1.9: Depends: ndiswrapper-common but it is not going to be installed"
[02:40] <ChildX> i cannot go into the Suspend mode in Gutsy... I can, however, in Feisty, but cannot return then
[02:40] <lamego> have you enabled the universe respository ?
[02:40] <broken> Perhaps I need backports, and those other packages.
[02:40] <gara> hola
[02:40] <arnath> ikonia: its a lot to type (i cant copy paste, since its not online), but its eth1 & lo (need to know anything else?)
[02:40] <shiznit> ikonia, type that into terminal?
[02:40] <lamego> !! universe
[02:40] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[02:40] <ChildX> i cannot go into the Suspend mode in Gutsy... I can, however, in Feisty, but cannot return then
[02:40] <humbolto> I am trying to get compiz-fusion to work. Everything seems to work now, except that changing things in ccsm does not seem to have any effect until I restart compiz as a whole!
[02:40] <ikonia> shiznit look in your home dir for .session
[02:40] <shiznit> k
[02:41] <ikonia> arnath something is wrong if there is no eth0
[02:41] <jrib> Innomen: remove the package it complains about
[02:41] <Innomen> ...
[02:41] <frinux> phdocq, are you here ?
[02:41] <ChildX> i cannot go into the Suspend mode in Gutsy... I can, however, in Feisty, but cannot return then
[02:41] <arnath> ikonia: crap :< and how do i fix it?
[02:41] <ChildX> i cannot go into the Suspend mode in Gutsy... I can, however, in Feisty, but cannot return then
[02:41] <ikonia> ChildX: your language and attitude last time before logging out was inexcusable
[02:41] <Innomen> jrib: i .... have.... tried. It returns that same error message
[02:41] <shiznit> ikonia, is that a folder or file?
[02:41] <phdocq> salut frinux, je te vois
[02:41] <murlidhar> arnath: this sometimes happens . change the pci slot of the network card
[02:41] <arnath> murlidhar: its built in
[02:41] <ikonia> arnath what I need you to do is reboot and once you've rebooted do "dmesg >dmesg.out" so we can go through it together
[02:42] <ikonia> shiznit should be a file
[02:42] <ganesh> lamego:i am installing google earth linux..
[02:42] <phdocq> hi frinux, I see you
[02:42] <Innomen> jrib: in fact i get that same error message from the package manager when i tell it to remove also
[02:42] <ChildX> suck my dick
[02:42] <ikonia> there we go
[02:42] <arnath> ikonia: ok, sec
[02:42] <ikonia> jrib: you awake
[02:42] <frinux> phdocq, ok
[02:42] <jrib> Innomen: pastebin the command and output of: sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 ndiswrapper-common
[02:42] <jrib> ikonia: yes?
[02:42] <ChildX> suck my dick
[02:42] <ikonia> ahhh Hobbsee's here too
[02:42] <frinux> phdocq, you can ask here, and lot's of people will try to help you
[02:43] <ikonia> Hobbsee: thats about the 3rd time thats happened
[02:43] <shiznit> ikonia, so such file
[02:43] <Hobbsee> oh yes i am...
[02:43] <gara> hola
[02:43] <phdocq> I did ask, but no reply so far
[02:43] <ikonia> he normally does a runner before being banned
[02:43] <ikonia> thanks
[02:43] <Hobbsee> ikonia: you could have raised it.  ti's only now been in +!
[02:43] <ikonia> shiznit: how are you looking
[02:43] <shiznit> search
[02:43] <phdocq> Since a few days, no way to have my USB devices to be mounted on KDE
[02:43] <broken> Quick question, does ubunut or any linux for that matter pick up a mic stuck into the mic port?
[02:43] <frinux> phdocq, so you have the choice, whether to ask again, or to go to another channel (#ubuntu-fr is quite good, and in french ;-)
[02:43] <ikonia> shiznit open a terminal, do ls -la in your home dir
[02:43] <ikonia> Hobbsee didn't think he was coming back
[02:44] <Innomen> jrib: "The following packages have unmet dependencies: ndisgtk: Depends: ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 but it is not going to be installed"
[02:44] <phdocq> I'll try
[02:44] <Hobbsee> ikonia: it wouldnt kill you to raise the alert anyway
[02:44] <arnath> ikonia: ok, what do you need?
[02:44] <jrib> Innomen: add that to the list
[02:44] <ikonia> Hobbsee: he only just came back
[02:44] <ikonia> arnath: can you grep through the dmesg file for "eth" see what you find
[02:44] <prestosd> Hey, I can't boot up! My boot loading thingy freezes at like %2 then goes to BusyBox 1.1.3 or something like that
[02:44] <Innomen> jrib: oh i see what you're doing, you're removing all the parts all at once
[02:44] <arnath> ikonia: ok just a sec
[02:44] <eXp`iRc|54404> hello
[02:44] <Innomen> jrib: oky hold on
[02:45] <jrib> Innomen: yes
[02:45] <franz1789> hi, I made a mistake during the configuration of a iptables rule, and I don't know how to delete it
[02:45] <franz1789> what's the command?
[02:45] <shiznit> ikonia, only thing with session in it is .xsession-errors

[02:45] <Deadspring> EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
[02:45] <ikonia> arnath thats more like it
[02:46] <ikonia> shiznit I'd log a bug for gusty then
[02:46] <shiznit> ikonia, what about a hibernate session, could it be restoring that?
[02:46] <arnath> ikonia: then it says "r8169: eth1: link down"
[02:46] <prestosd> Hey, I can't boot up! My boot loading thingy freezes at like %2 then goes to BusyBox 1.1.3 or something like that
[02:46] <arnath> ikonia: and then another ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth1: link is not ready
[02:46] <ikonia> arnath does sudo ifconfig -a" show eth0 yet ?
[02:46] <arnath> ikonia: no
[02:46] <Hobbsee> Deadspring: ?
[02:46] <franz1789> jrib, it's a honour your help, but this does not answer my question
[02:46] <jrib> ikonia, shiznit: ~/.gnome2/session
[02:46] <ikonia> arnath is this a laptop
[02:46] <ikonia> jrib ahhh thank you
[02:47] <arnath> ikonia: no
[02:47] <ikonia> thats the stuff
[02:47] <SilentDis> hello
[02:47] <bullgard4> What is the reason that ACPI Specification 3.0b does not mention HAL?
[02:47] <shiznit> jrib, i dont get it
[02:47] <ikonia> shiznit remove that file
[02:47] <shiznit> o
[02:47] <ikonia> arnath try dhclient eth0
[02:47] <broken> gah it doesn't work :d
[02:47] <Innomen> Jrib: "sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 ndiswrapper-common ndisgtk" results in... "E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the download directory"
[02:47] <ikonia> arnath: see what happens
[02:47] <prestosd> Hey, I can't boot up! My boot loading thingy freezes at like %2 then goes to BusyBox 1.1.3 or something like that...
[02:47] <arnath> ikonia: error while getting interface flags: no such device
[02:47] <Innomen> jrib: whole new error, yay for progress :)
[02:47] <SilentDis> is it possible to resize an ext3 partition without destroying the data on it?  specifically, is it possible with the Ubuntu 7.04 LiveCD?  I have a machine with 6.10 on it i'd like to upgrade, but / is sitting on a 3gb part that's just not big enough :P
[02:47] <ikonia> arnath: something is quite wrong here, your getting eth0 on bootup - but then the device on eth1
[02:47] <shiznit> jrib, i dont see that folder
[02:48] <ganesh> ikonia:how do i inatall .bin file??
[02:48] <prestosd> Hey, I can't boot up! My boot loading thingy freezes at like %2 then goes to BusyBox 1.1.3 or something like that
[02:48] <arnath> ikonia: any idea what it could be? :S (it worked great yesterday)
[02:48] <jrib> Innomen: you have another dpkg or apt process running
[02:48] <ikonia> ganesh what are you trying to install
[02:48] <ikonia> arnath seems a bit odd to be honest, if you have the cable plugged into the network card and its saying link down - thats not the right network card
[02:49] <Innomen> why yes i do lol hold on
[02:49] <murlidhar> arnath: i never knew a lan card can be built-in a desktop pc
[02:49] <ganesh> ikonia:google earth linux
[02:49] <arnath> murlidhar: built into the mobo
[02:49] <shiznit> jrib, ~/.gnome2/session?  i cant find it
[02:49] <ganesh> ikonia: i renamed it as abc
[02:49] <ikonia> ganesh: ./$file
[02:49] <SilentDis> ganesh: iirc, google earth came as a .bin.sh file.  sh ./google-earth-whatever-version.bin.sh
[02:49] <arnath> ikonia: is there anything i could try?
[02:50] <ikonia> arnath: just pondering
[02:50] <murlidhar> arnath: mobo?
[02:50] <arnath> murlidhar: motherboard
[02:50] <murlidhar> :0
[02:50] <ikonia> arnath: does dmesg | grep eth show anything on eth1
[02:50] <murlidhar> damn when will learn these shorts
[02:51] <shiznit> ikonia, where do i find ~/.gnome2/session ?  i dont see that folder anywhre
[02:51] <josh__> what is the package for amarok that will allow me to listen to my wma's?
[02:51] <josh__> i already have the w32codecs
[02:51] <Innomen> jrib: that fixed it, thanks man
[02:51] <ViRMiN> google earth's in the Medibuntu repo
[02:51] <humbolto> I never know if I need to enable the Composite extension or not in xorg.conf. What is it for?
[02:51] <ikonia> shiznit if its not in your home dir - its not there
[02:51] <arnath> ikonia: just what i said above: r8169: eth1: link down and ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth1: link is not ready
[02:51] <ikonia> arnath and the cable is plugged in now
[02:51] <arnath> ikonia: yes
[02:51] <ganesh> SilentDis:i din't get u
[02:51] <shiznit> ok im screwed then
[02:51] <Animoy_> Hmm, new kernel patch (Gutsy) broke HDA Intel ID268 again, but old fix still works. Just rebooted after applying the patch, and sound is back
[02:52] <shiznit> gonna apt-get remover the programs
[02:52] <murlidhar> josh__: join #amarok
[02:52] <jrib> shiznit: wait
[02:52] <ganesh> ikonia:its not wirking
[02:52] <ikonia> arnath: tell you what, tail -f /var/log/messages unplug the cable, count to 10 plug it in and see if anything shows in your tail log
[02:52] <shiznit> jrib, ok
[02:52] <Innomen> shiznit: listen to jrib, he is wise :)
[02:53] <SilentDis> ganesh: I just checked, they did switch google earth download to a .bin file.  once it's downloaded, just go to a term, cd into it's directory, and type ./GoogleEarth.bin
[02:53] <arnath> ikonia: doesnt seem like it
[02:53] <Kitsun> Ive installed KDE, how do I set FireFox as the default browser?
[02:53] <jrib> shiznit: in terminal: mv ~/.gnome2/session{,.backup}
[02:53] <ViRMiN> Why not get the Google Earth package from Medibuntu?
[02:53] <SilentDis> ViRMiN: latest version, install just to home directory, etc
[02:53] <ikonia> arnath: something is causing your card problems, not sure what at the moment
[02:54] <sasa> hello all. Can someone tell me how I can convert a file from AVI to MPG? I copied a dvd in a wrong format. Thank you.
[02:54] <Innomen> bbl, thanks again jrib, ikonia
[02:54] <ViRMiN> Ah, Medibuntu package is outdated?
[02:54] <arnath> ikonia: is it possible to ... uninstall the drivers or something and reinstall em?
[02:54] <shiznit> jrib, 'cannot stat' 'no such file or directory'
[02:54] <ikonia> arnath the drivers should be part of the kernel
[02:54] <SilentDis> ViRMiN: not sure, but pulling it right from earth.google.com is more reliable
[02:54] <ikonia> arnath: unless you've installed 3rd party ones
[02:54] <arnath> ikonia: no i didnt
[02:55] <jrib> shiznit: ls ~/.config/autostart
[02:55] <ViRMiN> SilentDis: True.  I've got the Medibuntu package installed and that seems to work okay.
[02:55] <SilentDis> !ffmpeg | sasa
[02:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ffmpeg - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:55] <ikonia> jrib: does autostart override sessions ?
[02:55] <SilentDis> sasa: you're looking for ffmpeg
[02:55] <arnath> ikonia: and nothing has changed since yesterday, except that ive installed w indows xp on another harddisk and fixed the dual boot
[02:55] <shiznit> jrib, ok done
[02:55] <ikonia> arnath: seems od
[02:55] <SilentDis> sasa: let me figger out a quicky avi > mpg string for ya...
[02:55] <jrib> ikonia: complements
[02:55] <sasa> thanks Silent
[02:56] <jrib> shiznit: what was the output?
[02:56] <ViRMiN> SilentDis: v4.2.0198.2451, build date Sep 12 2007
[02:56] <ikonia> jrib: which has priority, restoring a session correctly or complying with autostart sequence
[02:56] <shiznit> jrib, none
[02:56] <shiznit> just next line
[02:56] <SilentDis> sasa: what is the 'end application' for your vid file?
[02:56] <jrib> ikonia: no idea
[02:56] <prestosd> Hey, I can't boot up! My boot loading thingy freezes at like %2 then goes to BusyBox 1.1.3 or something like that
[02:56] <ikonia> jrib: fair enough, I appriciate its a bit specific
[02:57] <sasa> AVI is the file type, I play it with VLC and wanted to burn it with K3b
[02:57] <sasa> I need it on mpg format
[02:57] <oggei> hi
[02:57] <archititi>  qui veux des pleco
[02:57] <ganesh> SilentDis:file is in desktop.i renamed as abc.bin  but  ganesh@ganesh-desktop:~$ ./abc.bin is giving error "file not found
[02:57] <shiznit> jrib, there was no output
[02:58] <arnath> ikonia: so...am i looking at a reinstall or...?
[02:58] <ikonia> ganesh chmod 775 abc.bin
[02:58] <ikonia> arnath need to figure out whats going on
[02:58] <jrib> shiznit: log out, hit ctrl-alt-f1, remove /home/USER/.gnome2/session, ctrl-alt-f7
[02:58] <SilentDis> ganesh: usually, you should be in ~/Desktop ;)
[02:59] <arnath> ikonia: but i'm not linux wiz, so i'm not sure what i can do here to figure it out :s
[02:59] <shiznit> jrib, that folder doesnt exist
[02:59] <ganesh> ikonia:chmod: cannot access `abc.bin': No such file or directory
[02:59] <shiznit> ill try it anyway
[02:59] <sasa> can someone please tell me what is the best app to use to convert from AVI to MPG please?
[03:00] <jrib> shiznit: the sequence of events is important
[03:00] <SilentDis> sasa: ffmpeg -i inputfile.avi -ab <audio_bitrate> -ar <audio_samplerate> -b <video_bitrate> -s <size> outputfile.mpg
[03:00] <sasa> SilentDis....I need ffmpeg installed I take it?
[03:00] <ganesh> SilentDis:how to go to ~/desktop?
[03:00] <HYPOCRISY> not sure
[03:00] <SilentDis> sasa: yep, sudo aptitude install ffmpeg
[03:01] <sasa> SiletDis, you rock, I'll try it
[03:01] <SilentDis> ganesh: cd ~/Desktop CaPs ArE iMpOrTaNt!
[03:01] <bullgard4> What is the reason that ACPI Specification 3.0b does not mention HAL?
[03:01] <sasa> SilentDis....what do I put in the video and audio bitrate?
[03:02] <SilentDis> sasa: I assume you want it to be around 640x480, decent audio/video?
[03:02] <Woet> What is a good client of usenet? On ubuntu
[03:02] <Woet> Like grabit/newsleecher for windows
[03:02] <punzada> woet, Klibido
[03:02] <sasa> SilentDis....It's copied off of dvd, probably a little higher rez
[03:03] <Access> I appologise in advance for my n00bish tone. Im an avid bitorrent user, and see Azerus is on linux which is a nice fall back app. However the standard program that downloads pretty much everything in linux us awesome and supports Torrents great. But where can I set the port for it, it seems to have no GUI menu?
[03:03] <Dan> Hi everyone i have a bit of a dillemma i was wondering if anyone could offer a little assistance with
[03:03] <SilentDis> sasa: ffmpeg -i inputfile.avi -ab 128 -ar 44100 -b 700 -s 640x480 outputfile.mpg -- mind you, play with the -b and -s settings to get optimal results.  you might be encoding once or twice to get what you want
[03:03] <punzada> access, if you really like azerus you should use deludge on ubuntu, it's just like it and less resource heavy, full customizeable too
[03:03] <punzada> easy setup through a gui
[03:03] <ganesh> SilentDis:,ikonia,now its installing
[03:04] <Access> Really? I like uTorrent shame we dont have that.
[03:04] <mechdave> Dan: Just ask away
[03:04] <Dan> oky coky
[03:04] <SilentDis> Access: I use ktorrent personally, for a bittorrent client... then again, i'm in KDE lol
[03:04] <Dan> well basically my windows has just developed somesort of boot problem "unmountable boot volume"
[03:04] <Dan> and i isntalled the ubuntu live cd
[03:04] <Dan> so as to get access to my files
[03:04] <jrib> !enter | Dan
[03:04] <ubotu> Dan: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:05] <Dan> which i had the intention of cop[ying onto an external harddrive
[03:05] <Dan> oh o.k
[03:05] <Dan> sorry i thought there might be a limit or something
[03:05] <SilentDis> is it possible to resize an ext3 partition without destroying the data on it?  specifically, is it possible with the Ubuntu 7.04 LiveCD?  I have a machine with 6.10 on it i'd like to upgrade, but / is sitting on a 3gb part that's just not big enough :P
[03:05] <Access> Okay will install it and give it a whirl. But the generic application that downloads by default is quite a talking point when im showing off my system.
[03:05] <ganesh>  SilentDis:,ikonia,thanx a lot
[03:05] <mechdave> Dan: No the channel just auto wraps your words
[03:05] <SilentDis> ganesh: nt :)
[03:06] <shiznit> jrib, it said 'comand remove not found' or something similar
[03:06] <josh__> what is the command for mounting a smb share? i could have sworn it was : mount -t smbfs -o=username \\system\share /mount/point
[03:07] <Dan> Anyways o.k so basically microsoft windows has got all kanckered on me, so i installed ubuntu live c.d...basically what im trying to do is to copy the files off my harddrive onto an external, totally format the interal harddrive, get rid of windows, by partioting ubuntu and installing from the c.d
[03:07] <jrib> shiznit: the command to delete is 'rm'.  Note you *need* to update the path as well
[03:07] <Dan> after which copying said files from external hd back onto internal
[03:07] <Access> OKay this is a major problem, I copied all this stuff from my VIsta machine to my Linux machine. And its all on my hard disk but I dont have any permissions because im "not the owner"... Can I just do something to disale this type of security?
[03:07] <shiznit> jrib, "update" path?
[03:08] <Access> *disable
[03:08] <SilentDis> sasa: a bit off-topic, but this will give you a decent overview of some BASIC use of ffmpeg, in relation to converting youtube FLV files, and can easily be applied elsewhere:http://youmakemedia.com/2006/10/13/converting-flv-to-mpeg-in-linux/
[03:08] <mechdave> Dan: Ok, is your windows a FAT 32 file system or NTFS file system?
[03:08] <arnath> access: sudo chown could do the trick (i think)
[03:08] <Dan> but i seem to not be able to cop[y/delete or move files not only from internal to external but also simply on my internal
[03:08] <Dan> its a ntfs
[03:08] <dam9> ikonia, sorry xchat washed it away before I could google it (got distracted some minutes)  can you just repeat the name of the app you recommended for encoding to XVID? (sorry >_>)
[03:08] <jrib> shiznit: yes, replace "USER" with your actual user
[03:08] <Access> arnath: In the command prompt?
[03:08] <mechdave> Dan: Now can you mount the NTFS partitions from within Ubuntu?
[03:09] <josh__> yeah
[03:09] <shiznit> jrib, yea lol i knew that
[03:09] <Dan> i think they are mounted yes, do they need toi be unmounted?
[03:09] <arnath> Access: ye, chown is to change owner of files, so use a wildcard to indicate all files
[03:09] <shiznit> i just didnt know they actual remove comand, thx
[03:09] <rf36543g65436f54> hi guys. if anyone can help me with this that would be great. does anyone know a command that will get me the volume label of the primary drive from the terminal?
[03:09] <jrib> shiznit: k :)
[03:09] <Access> arnath: Can I make it recursive?
[03:09] <Access> arnath: -R or something?
[03:09] <arnath> Access: i have no idea, i hope so ;)
[03:09] <Access> haha thx
[03:09] <josh__> man chown
[03:10] <mechdave> Dan: No, no, just type mount without any arguments into the terminal and see what you get returned
[03:10] <dam9> rf36543g65436f54, fdisk -l
[03:10] <josh__> it should give you a list of acceptable switches
[03:10] <Access> anath: lol, now how do I find my hard disk in the command prompt :P
[03:10] <Dan> oky doky jsut a tick
[03:10] <mechdave> Dan: Oh, as sudo
[03:10] <rf36543g65436f54> dam9 : thank you  =)
[03:10] <Dan> im a total beginner im afraid...sudo mount?
[03:10] <arnath> Access: just cd to it like cd /media/mydrive
[03:10] <Access> arnath: Its a USB hard disk
[03:10] <Access> k
[03:10] <mechdave> Dan: That is correct
[03:10] <Dan> o.k done want me to post the response?
[03:10] <dam9> rf36543g65436f54, np =) dont forget sudo before the actual command
[03:11] <sasa> SilentDis
[03:11] <rf36543g65436f54> sure, no worries thanks :)
[03:11] <SilentDis> sasa: yes?
[03:11] <Access> arnath: thanks
[03:11] <sasa> this program doesn't have a GUI, does it?
[03:11] <arnath> Access: i hope it works :p
[03:11] <josh__> i can't seem to mount my smbfs...
[03:11] <superkirbyartist> Where can I get ATI Rage pro 128 drivers for Ubuntu?
[03:11] <Dan> well i would post the response but ctrl c doesnt appear to be working:P
[03:11] <SilentDis> sasa: not an 'easy' one that i've found, no.  but the command line works pretty well, once you get the hang of it.
[03:11] <josh__> it worked 3 monthes ago... fstab hasn't changed...
[03:11] <dam9> hey could anyone just mention a good app to encode raw video to xvid? (ikonia already answered but i lost the name >_<)
[03:11] <mechdave> Dan: Yeah, if it is more than about 3 lines it is best to use a pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[03:12] <sasa> SilentDis: the reason why I say is because I get this error:I/O error occured
[03:12] <sasa> Usually that means that input file is truncated and/or corrupted.
[03:12] <floitting> Whats wrong with my xubuntu. everytime I install anything with apt-get, "updating fonts cache"  then it goes over many font places and says "failed to write cache"
[03:12] <Dan> pastebin? im sorry my friend these terms are alien to me right now, but the reason ive started using linux is because i like what it stands for, people helping each other out and all that
[03:12] <Dan> how do i go about pastebinning?
[03:12] <stefg> !paste
[03:12] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:13] <SilentDis> sasa: sounds like you might be re-ripping that DVD.  just FYI, it'll take about as long to re-rip as it would to reencode anyway
[03:13] <josh__> quit
[03:13] <mechdave> Dan: See the private msg window there?
[03:14] <sasa> SilentDis: I think you're right....I got tricked because the default format was AVI in the app I was using
[03:14] <superkirbyartist> Where can I get ATI Rage pro 128 drivers for Ubuntu?
[03:14] <stefg> superkirbyartist: you have them already
[03:14] <Dan> i found the webpage pastebin
[03:14] <LM1> any command line experts here...???   I need help using nautilus actions to shred files inside folders.  The %M command doesn't seem to work
[03:14] <Dan> followed the link
[03:14] <SilentDis> sasa: just curious, why do you need it as MPG?  I personally use AVI most of the time.
[03:14] <Dan> entered my name as dan and pasted
[03:14] <superkirbyartist> stefg: Then how do I enable direct rendering on the iMac G3?
[03:14] <Dan> sorry force of habit to keep hitting enter no offense intended
[03:14] <SilentDis> sasa: when i'm working on vid editing though, uncompressed mpegs is the way I go
[03:15] <stefg> superkirbyartist: this card can't do that
[03:15] <LM1> anyone here familiar with the shred command?
[03:15] <sasa> I want to burn a video cd, and k3b only takes mpg as an input
[03:15] <superkirbyartist> stefg, why not, it has 128 megs of ram!
[03:15] <katharos> hi, i've just upgraded to gutsy and i cant get my nvidia drivers to work, i dont get anywhere unless i remove the xorg.conf file
[03:15] <sasa> I wonder if acidrip application can convert it, that's the program I used to rip the dvd anyway
[03:16] <SilentDis> Dan: the chat room moves VERY fast.  that's why we have that 'rule' in place.  always best to preface your comments with the person's name you're speaking to (type the first few letters, and hit tab) and keep it to one line, so their client will ding and they can read it in one go :)
[03:16] <arnath> katharos: in gutsy, theres (in the administration dropdown i believe) something about restricted drivers, open that up
[03:16] <shiznit> jrib, no such file or directory
[03:16] <Dan> youll have to excuse me im new to this stuff :)
[03:16] <SilentDis> sasa: ahhhhh.  you're converting a DVD to a VideoCD then.  be aware, you'll be going down to 320x240 res if you wanna put 70+ min on that CD
[03:16] <katharos> arnath: i tried that it cant do anything because i dont have a xorg.conf
[03:17] <mechdave> Dan: Hang on mate, just checking out the pastebin
[03:17] <stefg> superkirbyartist: no proprietary 3D enabled driver available for your card
[03:17] <SilentDis> sasa: 640x480 is for SVCD (super Video CD), and the disk will max out around 30 min
[03:17] <Dan> oky coky :)
[03:17] <ptn107> katharos: try the   ubuntu+1    channel
[03:17] <stefg> superkirbyartist: http://ati.amd.com/products/catalyst/linux.html
[03:17] <ptn107> katharos: they fixed my X
[03:17] <katharos> ptn107: thanx, i will
[03:17] <arnath> katharos: have you tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg "
[03:17] <mannyz> hello
[03:17] <arnath> ?
[03:18] <sasa> SilentDis: oh I see
[03:18] <katharos> arnath: yep, no joy, on restart i had the same problem i started with
[03:18] <jrib> shiznit: and the programs started again?
[03:18] <arnath> :s
[03:18] <mannyz> where i can get nvidia drivers?
[03:18] <SilentDis> sasa: finally, there's DVD-CD (kinda like a tiny DVD, maxing at 700mb) it can hold full DVD quality, but maxes somewhere around 15 min of video
[03:18] <LM1> Is anyone here good with the command line?   I am trying to get shred to shred everything inside folders and subfolders
[03:19] <SilentDis> !info shred
[03:19] <ubotu> Package shred does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[03:19] <MannyZ> !nvidia drivers
[03:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nvidia drivers - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:19] <SilentDis> LM1: what is shred?
[03:19] <MannyZ> !nvidia
[03:19] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:19] <squidgy> Hi all.  The text on my desktop icons (Gnome) recently started linewrapping after only a few characters so that the label for a single icon occupies several lines.  How do I reset it?
[03:19] <mechdave> Dan: See the URL of your paste it should look similar to this --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39761/
[03:19] <Tomcat_> SilentDis: shred is in coreutils
[03:19] <nonix4> SilentDis: an attempt to really remove a file - does not work with modern fs's like ext3
[03:20] <Tomcat_> SilentDis: shred - overwrite a file to hide its contents, and optionally delete it
[03:20] <SilentDis> Tomcat_: thanks.  *hops to manpage*
[03:20] <Access> woooo
[03:20] <shiznit> jrib, yes it autostarted the programs again
[03:20] <mechdave> Dan: well paste it into where you type in here
[03:20] <Access> *hugs Ubuntu channel*
[03:20] <sasa> SilentDis: oh I see
[03:20] <sasa> SilentDis: thank you very much for your help
[03:20] <LM1> nonix4, actually according to the shred manual it works just fine unless you have journaling enabled which is not default
[03:20] <sasa> SilentDis: while we're on a roll, can I ask you another question?
[03:20] <superkirbyartist> stefg, no powerpc.
[03:20] <jrib> shiznit: what program
[03:21] <SilentDis> sasa: fire away :)
[03:21] <Dmitry_> Please install and activate NTP support in the system to enable synchronisation of your local time server with Internet time servers.
[03:21] <Dmitry_> what's the name of the package?
[03:21] <nonix4> LM1: hmm... oh yeah default was journaling just metadata?
[03:21] <shiznit> jrib, fusion-icon, avant-windows-navigator, and an instance of filemanager
[03:21] <sasa> SilentDis: I have a dell laptop with an internal wireless card: it's that broadcom debocle. Is there a way I can make that card work on ubuntu 7 and a wpa network?
[03:22] <SilentDis> sasa: i have little to no experience with wireless at this point.  I ran cat5 in my house to avoid it, also i have a 2.4ghz phone lol.  I'd recommend checking out the !wireless info block though, or asking the others in the room.  :)
[03:23] <LM1> nonix4, the FS is data=ordered by default unless you change it to data=journaled then shred works fine according to its own manual cli "man shred"
[03:23] <sasa> SilentDis: awesome....thank you for your help!
[03:23] <stefg> superkirbyartist: i undertood that. this is your problem....http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297041

[03:24] <Dan> yes mate
[03:25] <Dan> just sent the thing into the chat window
[03:25] <jrib> shiznit: well that session file is where this info is stored.  It should have worked.  But what happens when you use the "Sessions" program to remove it?
[03:25] <Dan> if thats cool?
[03:25] <mechdave> Dan: Did you work out the pastebin?
[03:25] <shiznit> jrib, i did that before i asked for help, does nothing
[03:25] <shiznit> they are gone from the list but still autostart
[03:25] <Dan> erm i think so =P, i pasted it as dan
[03:25] <DeathWolf> hum, is there any reason image magick is still at 6.2.x.x and I cant find any 6.3.x.x package in any repository??

[03:26] <mahrellon> Hey guys. Is it normal that the last updates for Ubuntu GG T5 removes Nvidia GLX and the restricted-drivers (and rest-modules) making it unusable?

[03:28] <nonix4> LM1: just remember that old versions can exist just about anywhere on the empty part of the hd...
[03:29] <mechdave> Dan: Ok so you have your external drive mounted as /media/Peace and your hard drive mounted as /media/LiFe?
[03:29] <Dan> thats correct
[03:29] <LM1> nonix4, from what I read ubuntu uses data=ordered mode on ext3 by default you would have to manually enable journaling mode
[03:29] <Access> !samba
[03:29] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT

[03:30] <mechdave> Dan: Right ok, now what was the problem you are having again? (I just wanted to make sure it was all mounted ok)
[03:30] <joebloe> what kernel does the 7.10 beta use ?
[03:30] <Dan> sure o.k the problem is i have no sort of rights to do anything on Ubuntu. On windows it was fine i could copy paste delete as i saw fit...
[03:30] <Dan> but i cant even move data or delete it from my internal harddrive let alone onto the external
[03:31] <mechdave> Dan: Ok what user account are you using?
[03:31] <Dan> i have no idea my friend
[03:31] <nonix4> LM1: well I mean there're other conditions where the old versions can be left on hd... like the way ext3 avoid fragmentation

[03:31] <squidgy> Hi.  Does anyone here know how to set the wrap linewidth of Gnome icons on my desktop?
[03:31] <LM1> does anyone here know anything about nautilus-actions?   What command do you use to apply the command to all files inside of a folder and subfolders but not the folders themselves?
[03:31] <Dan> yes thats right

[03:32] <Dan> sorry havent a clue joe
[03:32] <ferentix> the other resolutions currently listed in GNOME's GUI configuration things are all either larger or smaller than mine
[03:32] <mechdave> Dan: Right, ok, now all you need to do is type into a terminal sudo su and it should give you a prompt with root in it somewhere
[03:32] <Dan> o.k i shall try
[03:32] <squidgy> To clarify, my text labels on icons have switched to occupying many lines because they wrap after only a few characters.
[03:32] <ptn107> MannyZ: nvidia's or ubuntus-restricted
[03:32] <joebloe> thanks thats just what i needed
[03:32] <mechdave> Dan: ie root@ubuntu#

[03:35] <wastrel> the password is blank
[03:35] <wastrel> if it asks which i'm not sure it will or not

[03:35] <wastrel> Dan: sudo -i  for a root shell  or  sudo <command>   to run just one command as root
[03:35] <gavintlgold> hi, simple question: is it possible to do remote desktop through the internet?
[03:36] <Dan> o.k it now says root@ubuntu:-~#
[03:36] <gavintlgold> and if so, how
[03:36] <Bauldrick_> #edubuntu
[03:36] <wastrel> Dan:  you're the root (admin) user now.  don't break anything :] 
[03:36] <Bauldrick_> join edubuntu
[03:36] <Dan> so i can now move my files and back them up?
[03:37] <LM1> nonix4,  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39762/  here you can read for yourself :)
[03:37] <mechdave> Dan: Cool, now to copy all your files to your external should be cp /media/LiFe /media/Peace/somefolder
[03:37] <mechdave> Dan: to create a folder (or directory) it is mkdir somefolder
[03:37] <Dan> i wasnt gonna copy them all mate, i was gonna select some ones i wanted to keep and then delete them once copied so i know what ive got and what i havent go
[03:38] <gavintlgold> does anyone know at all?
[03:38] <Dan> because to back them all up would take ages...running usb 1.0 as opposed to 2.0:P
[03:38] <Mark7> Why are there no native database applications for Gnome? :-(
[03:38] <lousygarua> Mark7: how about phpmyadmin?
[03:38] <Dan> the right click commands are still all grey?
[03:39] <mechdave> Dan: Ok, thats fine, just cp /media/LiFe/whatever/files/you/want /media/Peace/what/ever/directory/you/want
[03:39] <Dan> sorry what command would i use to do that?
[03:39] <Mark7> Databse applications that DON't Require you to have a server. Lousygarua
[03:39] <Mark7> YOu know, like Excel
[03:39] <mechdave> Dan: You have to go with command line with this one
[03:39] <Dan> hmm theres no gui interface to do it?
[03:40] <wastrel> Mark7: that's a spreadsheet.  openoffice calc or gnumeric
[03:40] <Mark7> Okay, obviously I meant Access
[03:40] <Mark7> Whoops
[03:40] <ferentix> OOo Base then?
[03:40] <Dan> i mean not just copying files from interal to external, but i cant manage (right click delete e.t.c) the files on the internal either?
[03:40] <pepino125> hi, can someone tell me how to save the security patches that I downloaded trough the software update?
[03:40] <Mark7> I don't want the rest of OOo
[03:40] <mechdave> Dan: the other way you could do it is in your terminal type nautilus /media/LiFe &
[03:41] <mechdave> Dan: and then type nautilus /media/Peace &
[03:41] <Mark7> Aren't they automaitcally saved, pepino?
[03:41] <josh__> !easysources
[03:41] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[03:41] <Arepie> for ATI driver, should i install libgl1-mesa-dri and libgl1-mesa-glx ?? or i should choose one of them?
[03:41] <mechdave> Dan: That should open up the file browser for you as root user
[03:41] <pepino125> Mark7, where are they saved? If they are automatically, where are they located?
[03:41] <Dan> o.k ill try it
[03:42] <ptn107> Mark7: sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-base
[03:42] <Mark7> I mean, shouldn't they be?  I thought that was the whole idea behind synaptic
[03:42] <mechdave> Dan: Then just drag and drop your files as you need between the windows
[03:42] <gavintlgold> how would i check to see what my ip address is?
[03:42] <Mark7> Ping?
[03:42] <mechdave> gavintlgold: ifconfig -a
[03:43] <wastrel> /var/cache/apt/archives
[03:43] <Dan>  "couldnt find media/peace"
[03:43] <mechdave> Dan: Try capital p

[03:43] <xcst> ei can anyone help me how to install frostwire?
[03:43] <mechdave> Dan: Linux is case sensative
[03:43] <Dan> o.k :)
[03:43] <pepino125> Mar7, well, yes. but let me explain. I've DL the patches on this computer that internet access. I need to save them into USB drive and take them to another Ubuntu compter where I dont have access to the internet
[03:44] <Mark7> Oh. Then I've no idea
[03:44] <xcst> !frostwire
[03:44] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[03:44] <Mark7> Sorry
[03:44] <Dan> "couldnt find root/Media/Life"
[03:44] <gavintlgold> mechdave: how would i set it up so that my computer has a unique ip address and not just "192.168..."
[03:44] <Mark7> I tried Glom but it kept refusing to connect to a server I don't have
[03:44] <mechdave> Dan: Once again make sure that LiFe is typed correctly
[03:45] <nasser> Can I do live update 7.10 BETA to final if it released ?
[03:45] <mechdave> Dan: Note the capitals
[03:45] <Dan> yup sorry
[03:45] <nasser> Can I do live update from 7.10 BETA to final if it released ?
[03:45] <Dan> *bangs head in im stupid fashion justa tick:)
[03:45] <mechdave> Dan: No worries, it takes some getting used to :)
[03:45] <ptn107> nasser: theoretically yes, but clean install if you cna
[03:45] <ptn107> *can
[03:46] <LM1> so I have a command I want to execute from nautilus-actions   I need it to be run on all files inside folders and subfolders but not the folders themselves.    %M doesn't seem to work does anyone have any more suggestions?
[03:46] <wastrel> pepino125: /var/cache/apt/archives
[03:46] <Dan> o.k its working this time:)
[03:46] <wastrel> pepino125: i think there's an official way to do what you're trying to do, however.
[03:46] <wastrel> dunno what it is tho
[03:46] <Dan> after ive typed that
[03:46] <Dan> the terminal window is on a fresh line with no prompt
[03:47] <Dan> ? open a new terminal?
[03:47] <mechdave> Dan: Oh, you must have forgotten the &
[03:47] <Mark7> I already have Abiword and Gnumeric installed, so adding the OOo suite would just be duplicating
[03:47] <jrib> LM1: find
[03:47] <Phrozen_One> is there a program in ubuntu that allows for partition backup and burn to a dvd?
[03:47] <Dan> ah yeah cool sorted :)
[03:47] <Dan> o.k now the moment of truth ;)
[03:48] <LM1> jrib?
[03:48] <wastrel> Mark7: are you running low on disk space?  ;] 
[03:48] <jrib> Phrozen_One: checkout partimage
[03:48] <arnath> anyone know how to get rid of overscan on a tv with linux?
[03:48] <Mark7> NO, I'm just trying to keep to low processor usage apps
[03:48] <Phrozen_One> jrib, gtk or cli?
[03:48] <pepino125> wastrel ............ok, /var/cache/apt/archives seems to have all the Downloads. So all the downloads are .deb?
[03:48] <ptn107> question... how can I force synaptic (or apt) to force download a package and not install it, even if its already installed and i [accidentally]  deleted the .deb from /var/cache/apt/archives
[03:49] <wastrel> pepino125: that's correct
[03:49] <jrib> Phrozen_One: cli
[03:49] <Dan> i do not have permission apparently :P
[03:49] <Phrozen_One> oh, think I used it
[03:49] <Dan> *sighs
[03:49] <Mark7> I only have 256mbs and eight hundred odd gHz to play with
[03:49] <jrib> !backup > Phrozen_One (read the private message from ubotu)
[03:49] <FlyingPig> Dan 'chmod --help'
[03:49] <wastrel> Dan: is the destination disk NTFS?
[03:49] <pepino125> wastrel, one more thing. How do I install the .deb extension? pkgadd?
[03:49] <wastrel> ubuntu can't write to ntfs out of the box
[03:49] <jrib> LM1: 'find' is a command
[03:49] <wastrel> pepino125: dpkg -i file.deb
[03:49] <Dan> yes
[03:49] <ptn107> gutsy can
[03:50] <pepino125> wastrel, awesome... your the man!
[03:50] <Dan> wastreal it is ntfs
[03:50] <Phrozen_One> jrib, thank you for the assistance
[03:50] <mechdave> wastrel: yes, but shouldn't ntfs-3g work?
[03:50] <wastrel> iono, i never use windows
[03:50] <LM1> jrib, yes I know but I need a parameter not a command :)  its for nautilus-actions
[03:50] <Mark7> Hmm.  It looks like OOo is modular after all
[03:50] <wastrel> Dan: you need to enable ntfs writing before you can copy your files to that disk
[03:51] <Dan> o.k and how would i go about doing that my good man?:)
[03:51] <wastrel> beats me, i never use windows :] 
[03:51] <mechdave> wastrel: it is mounted as rw --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39760/
[03:51] <Mark7> I used Windows a long time ago
[03:52] <Dan> *sighs
[03:52] <arnath> anyone know if you can counter overscan with linux?
[03:52] <Mark7> Anyone here use Liferea?
[03:52] <jrib> LM1: pass 'find'  the top-level directory and use -type and -exec
[03:52] <wastrel> mechdave: ah ntfs is already enabled on the livecd?
[03:52] <mechdave> Dan: Hang on mate, just hooking up my NTFS drive
[03:52] <FlyingPig> wastrel so u never use windows? you use wine?
[03:52] <Dan> you dont have to dave mate if its gonna be a hassle
[03:53] <wastrel> FlyingPig:  no, just linux
[03:53] <mechdave> wastrel: It appears as so
[03:53] <wastrel> although right now os x, since my linux laptop died & i'm using my wife's
[03:53] <FlyingPig> wastrel yeah im the same. but you know alot of people like their pc games.
[03:53] <Dan> im just a  bit perplexed i know linux is a much safer securer and faster o/s but its just lacking a bit of user friendlyness ya know
[03:53] <LM1> jrib, yes thanks but I am trying to use nautilus actions to do this so I can right click a folder and execute the command without brining up cli
[03:53] <LM1> jrib, thanks anyway
[03:53] <murlidhar> like me i have installed windows for my xp
[03:54] <murlidhar> for my games of course
[03:54] <Dan> i really want to start using linux as i said i like the whole concept of a community
[03:54] <jrib> LM1: yes I know... this should work
[03:54] <Dan> *shrugs
[03:54] <mechdave> Dan: Well it does from the point of view of someone who has just stepped off the window$ roundabout onto the Linux one... I was there myself a few years ago!
[03:55] <LM1> jrib, ok so I put -type -exec into the parameters option in nautilus-actions?
[03:55] <Dan> take for instance my internet just using this ubuntu live cd..its faster than ive ever seen it before
[03:55] <Dan> almost instant whereas with windows it was soooooo slow....
[03:55] <squidgy> Hi.  Are my messages getting through?  I'm not being impatient, just wondering if ERC is working.
[03:55] <jrib> LM1: in some form
[03:55] <agraman> Dan, you'll find Ubuntu Feisty to be quite friendly
[03:55] <Mark7> Yes they are
[03:56] <Julius> i know this is vague but how do i boot with it8212.noraid=1 option for a module
[03:56] <Julius> putting it in /etc/modues/options didnt help
[03:56] <Dan> i'm not gonna give up though
[03:56] <squidgy> Mark7: thanks.
[03:56] <Dan> im gonna get this bloody info backed up and install ubuntu if its the last thing i do
[03:56] <Mark7> Damn, nicknames are stil coloured
[03:56] <Dan> :P
[03:57] <Dan> so can anyone tell me why the buttons for delete e.t.c are greyed out and how i go about ungreying them?:)

[03:58] <Dan> ive just thopught of a solution
[03:58] <Mark7> Blimey, OOo is slow
[03:59] <mechdave> Is the ubuntu machine connected to the internet?
[03:59] <LM1> jrib, according to the manual it works fine on ext as long as you don't use data=journaled mode
[03:59] <Dan> take out this harddrive (internal) take it upstairs to my other comp runnnig windows
[03:59] <Dan> and plug it in as a slave
[03:59] <LM1> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39762/  read for yourself
[03:59] <Dan> running the upstairs computer as an intermediary between internal and external
[03:59] <LM1> :)
[03:59] <Mark7> And I can't create a table :-(
[04:00] <jrib> LM1: right
[04:00] <Dan> a lot of hassle but i think it will work :P
[04:00] <mechdave> Dan: You could do that, it probably would be easier for now, I don't know if apt-get would work with the live cd
[04:00] <Dan> yeah thats what im thinking..im thinknig once i install ubuntu ill probably have more rights/whatever...but its the matter of getting the files off before partitioning ya know
[04:00] <Dan> catch 22 and all:P
[04:01] <kbrooks> what is the best wireless router that works?
[04:01] <kbrooks> er...\

[04:01] <kbrooks> out of the box
[04:01] <Dan> oh well Dave, thanks for your assistance anyways mate
[04:02] <Mark7> Why is there no native database with GUI for Gnome/xfce?
[04:02] <erUSUL> Mark7: do you mean like access ??
[04:02] <Mark7> Yeah
[04:03] <erUSUL> Mark7: OO.org Base ?
[04:03] <GBenemy> yeah
[04:03] <mechdave> Dan: No worries, when you do get Ubuntu installed (or even before) try http://tldp.org, it is all the documentation you will need for a while for Linux
[04:03] <Dan> o.k mate much appreciated..time to go back up :P
[04:03] <Mark7> I tried that, erUSUL.  It wouldn't let me set up a table
[04:03] <Dan> have a good one bud - later :)
[04:03] <mechdave> Dan: No worries :)
[04:04] <erUSUL> Mark7: that's the close thing i know... try glom (a little more advanced as i neeed a DB server iirc)
[04:04] <Mark7> I keep getting an error in Glom :-(
[04:05] <jrib> LM1: make sure you test with some user that has no important files

[04:23] <amadeux> I am really surprised that there is not support for an open format such as .ape directly in the Ubuntu repository!

[04:23] <Mark7> GOD ALMIGHTY
[04:23] <ferentix> anyone any idea about modifying resolutions in an xorg.conf generated by/for xserver-xgl? It's different to the style I'm (slightly more) familiar with- I can't find any obvious place where resolutions are set, and mine (for my LCD laptop monitor) isn't currently available :\

[04:26] <PIrate_Bill> is anyone else having problems with update manager in 7.04?  I keep getting hung-up while in the process of downloading 7.10
[04:26] <Mark7> I don't
[04:26] <Mark7> I have a PC

[04:26] <jamesbrose> I assumed, couldn't you install whatever you need on your PC then?
[04:26] <Mark7> I don't want to write software, or run a website
[04:26] <Mark7> I JUST WANT a database
[04:27] <jamesbrose> Mark7: what kind of database?
[04:27] <Mark7> Access-like
[04:27] <sin18> jrib : thanks
[04:27] <mechdave> Mark7: Just install MySQL
[04:27] <Mark7> And I've tried BAse, it doesn't work properly on its own
[04:27] <jamesbrose> Mark7: http://www.glom.org/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page
[04:27] <jamesbrose> maybe?
[04:27] <Mark7> Does MySQL have a GUI?
[04:28] <jamesbrose> Mark7: not by default
[04:28] <jamesbrose> but you can install mysql-client
[04:28] <Mark7> Then it's of no use to me
[04:28] <Mark7> Right
[04:28] <Mark7> I'll try that
[04:28] <mechdave> Mark7: PhpMyAdmin comes fairly close tho

[04:30] <LM1> jrib, I googled shred and exec and find etc and I found this page I followed his instructions but they didn't work http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,2126528,00.asp
[04:30] <LM1> :C
[04:30] <rsis110> heyyy. can anyone help me with this
[04:31] <rsis110> say i had a program in some place, but i wanna be able to run it from anywhere
[04:31] <jamesbrose> Mark7: openoffice Calc comes with ubuntu
[04:31] <mechdave> _0xf: you have to burn it from an image in nero
[04:31] <Mark7> Nothing.  I just think it'd be nice if there was a standalone db app for Gnome
[04:31] <rsis110> instead of having to cd to the directory or type in the whole path
[04:31] <momal> Anyone here happen to know of a command line id3 (mp3) tag editor? need it to support utf-8 and parameters on it to edit the tags
[04:32] <wastrel> rsis110: create ~/bin  and put a symlink there pointing to the program
[04:32] <JEFFmasterFlex> Mark7:  I use Kexi for db related garbage. it's pretty awesome. but it's a KDE app
[04:32] <jrib> LM1: how did you set it up
[04:32] <wastrel> rsis110: or make an alias   alias foo=/some/path/to/foo
[04:32] <rsis110> ahh i see
[04:32] <Mark7> Does it use resources efficiently, JEFF?
[04:32] <rsis110> thing is.. more specifically I'm trying to run qmake
[04:33] <rsis110> but it seems to be pointing to qt3 instead of qt4 version
[04:33] <LM1> jrib, just as it said in the article.
[04:33] <rsis110> I was just wondering if I could redirect it somehow.
[04:33] <JEFFmasterFlex> Mark7:  kde apps add bloat to a Gnome install. but it's pretty smooth. for a simple database it uses sqlite
[04:34] <JEFFmasterFlex> Mark7: sqlite is fast and small
[04:34] <wastrel> rsis110: check the alternatives system?   sudo update-alternatives --config qmake  maybe
[04:34] <wastrel> not sure
[04:34] <Mark7> I'm using xfce
[04:34] <rsis110> ohh
[04:34] <rsis110> waah. learning X3
[04:34] <rsis110> this is like. my first linux ever lol
[04:34] <jrib> LM1: paste here what you input in nautilus actions
[04:34] <JEFFmasterFlex> Mark7:  same deal. these are all qt apps running in a GTK environment. some people aren't cool with that.
[04:34] <Plouj> hi
[04:35] <rsis110> wastrel: thats awesome. thanks heaps
[04:35] <acecase> what is a good log to look at to see why my system is locking sometimes at startup/shutdown? dmesg isn't showing anything useful
[04:35] <Plouj> does anyone know if Ubuntu's packages have Rocks 'n Diamonds somewhere?
[04:35] <Mark7> I'm an apps apartheidist
[04:35] <Mark7> I like to keep them seperate wherever possible
[04:35] <JEFFmasterFlex> Mark7:  you can always use OpenOffice Base, but then there goes that "light on resources" thing you wanted
[04:35] <acecase> Plouj, I don't know about ubuntu packages (or even if getdeb will have it) but you could check with getdeb.com
[04:36] <JEFFmasterFlex> Mark7:  too bad, kde apps are pretty awesome. i couldn't function in my daily life without Amarok
[04:36] <onesandzeros> hey guys,iam trying to get compiz running, but i need to install ati drivers first, can someonehelp me out pls?
[04:36] <Mark7> WOOHOO!  England are 5 minutes away from the RWC semis :-D
[04:36] <acecase> JEFFmasterFlex, I agree, KDE has some great apps built for it
[04:36] <kittyhawk> hi
[04:37] <kittyhawk> I installed feisty on my laptop, and I turned on the desktop effects.  Everything works well except the root window is only drawing over about 2/3 of the screen
[04:37] <kittyhawk> so there's a hall of mirrors over on the right
[04:37] <kittyhawk> any ideas?
[04:37] <JEFFmasterFlex> acecase:  ktorrent, amarok, konversation, kmail, k3b... they are all awesome
[04:38] <mechdave> Mark7: At least you look like you can beat us in the rugby!!  :)
[04:38] <acecase> JEFFmasterFlex, kOffice :)
[04:39] <kittyhawk> or at least, does anyone know where I can look for some good info?
[04:39] <JEFFmasterFlex> acecase:  all my work is done in Kate and Tex, so unfortunately, no KOffice for me. but it is good, I have used it
[04:40] <acecase> JEFFmasterFlex, the K app that I use most is basKet which is awsome for notes in class. I use gnome DE though so K apps can be buggy :/
[04:40] <bascule> kittyhawk: tried changing wallpaper/refreshing desktop?
[04:40] <mmkassem> JEFFmasterFlax: Deluge is a good ktorrent alternative for GTK/Gnome users .. Banshee instead of amarok
[04:40] <JEFFmasterFlex> mmkassem: Banshee CANNOT replace Amarok. not even close. and deluge is still buggy
[04:41] <bascule> yeah, amarok has no equal anywhere at all ony any OS
[04:41] <JEFFmasterFlex> mmkassem:  in gnome i prefer transmission instead of deluge
[04:41] <acecase> does anyone know of a daemon or anything that will watch my startup/shutdown process and log what happens before it locks. I'm just seeing a black screen when it locks so I can't even see that last thing that went well
[04:41] <kittyhawk> bascule: no good.  I turned on cube flipping and the cube is really a cube (not a rectangle)  I think for some reason it thinks my desktop size is square
[04:41] <fuzzyhair> I need a program to use my computer when I am elsewhere. I know kubuntu has one, but I forgot what it was. Any ideas?
[04:42] <bascule> kittyhawk: interesting possibility
[04:42] <acecase> fuzzyhair, freenx is a great one
[04:42] <mmkassem> JEFFmasterFlex: I did not try transmission, may be I should give it a try .. Deluge works good for me under Gusty.
[04:42] <fuzzyhair> acecase: when booting and shutting down press alt+f1
[04:42] <fuzzyhair> acecase thanks
[04:43] <JEFFmasterFlex> mmkassem:  download it from getdeb.net, i think the one in the repos is old
[04:43] <acecase> fuzzyhair, thanks but it goes black before I get a chance. which probably meens nothing would have time to load to watch anyway :/
[04:43] <bascule> kittyhawk: beryl or compiz-fusion?
[04:43] <pastyhermit> Hi All
[04:43] <mechdave> Bugga... Missed beating the POMS by 2 points!! :(
[04:43] <kbrooks> JEFFmasterFlex, getdeb doesnt make very good debs
[04:43] <pastyhermit> is there a way to get ubuntu of fmy machine and to get the partition back?
[04:43] <arnath> how can i manually set the ip in ubuntu?
[04:43] <JEFFmasterFlex> kbrooks:  HEY i used to contribute to getdeb... lol
[04:44] <kittyhawk> bascule: I think compiz.  I just logged in and clicked "enable desktop effects"
[04:44] <LM1> jrib,  ok thanks I got it working finally  path= find  parameters= %M -type f -exec shred -f -u -z '{}' \;     but is there a way to password protect it like sudo or gksu
[04:44] <pastyhermit> arnath, ifconfig
[04:44] <kittyhawk> ps shows compiz running
[04:44] <mechdave> pastyhermit: how do you mean partition back?
[04:44] <JEFFmasterFlex> kbrooks:  honestly all my debs were made with checkinstall. checkinstall sucks sometimes
[04:44] <LM1> does anyone here know is it possible to password protect a nautilus-actions command with gksu or sudo
[04:44] <LM1> im not having much luck :(
[04:44] <bascule> kittyhawk: OK, those are minor additions, try turning them back off and installing comiz-fusion + plugins
[04:44] <timothywcrane> quick question in gui totem has no problems, but when I activate from CLI it reports that files are not found, any suggest?
[04:45] <mmkassem> arnath: for GUI way, use System>Administration > Network
[04:45] <bascule> kittyhawk: compiz I meant
[04:45] <mechdave> arnath: sudo ifconfig ethx address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
[04:45] <pastyhermit> mechdave, when I install ubuntu parted resized my wxp partition
[04:45] <timothywcrane> am I missing a variable?
[04:45] <pastyhermit> unfortunatly XP runs faster than ubuntu on my hardware.
[04:45] <acecase> fuzzyhair, freeNX is more of a "out of the box" solution that just works with little config. X itsself can run accross a network but I don't know how to get it working and it's hard from what I here. I use freeNX for remote gnome it works great. for remote KDE the tooltips etc can cause lag.
[04:45] <pastyhermit> I would like to remove it
[04:46] <acecase> fuzzyhair, I play games on the remote gnome desktop though (local network) and it runs great. Dunno why KDE desktop effects cause so much lag
[04:46] <acecase> pastyhermit, you want to remove ubuntu?
[04:47] <bascule> pastyhermit: XP is faster, something wrong there ...
[04:47] <lucas_> hi. i can't print a document because i need to replace the ink cartridges. but i have an epson stylus cx3900 and don't know which of the 4 cartridges i have to replace (red, yellow, red, black).. in windows there was a program that showed me the ink left in each cartridge..
[04:47] <mechdave> sudo fdisk /dev/hd# will do, the # is the drive to look at, ie hda is pri master and hdb is pri slave etc
[04:47] <pbx> This may be outside the scope of this channel, but: I have an Ubuntu install where I have turned off GDM (because I have been experimenting with alternate login managers and window managers). Before I start X, I'm in a teeny terminal session in the middle of my screen. Is there any way to make that fullscreen?
[04:47] <pbx> Then I might not need X at all :)
[04:47] <jrib> LM1: you could create a confirmation dialog with zenity maybe
[04:47] <fuzzyhair> acecase: how did you get freenx. Was it hard to set up? This will be for one person in florida and one person in georgia...
[04:47] <pastyhermit> bascule, dont lecture the choir
[04:47] <LM1> !zenity
[04:47] <mechdave> pastyhermit: Hmmm something really wrong here
[04:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about zenity - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:47] <JEFFmasterFlex> pastyhermit:  delete the ubuntu with gparted, resize your NTFS partition, then use a WIN XP install disc to fix the master boot record and install NTLOADER
[04:48] <pastyhermit> Im LPIC-2 and my job is taking care of really big Dell Linux boxes
[04:48] <LM1> jrib, whats zenity? sorry im a noob and thank you for all the help
[04:48] <pastyhermit> J thanks
[04:48] <pastyhermit> mechdave, well are there good docs on tweaking ubuntu
[04:48] <_0xf> Nice fresh instald ubuntu after trying to get my dlin wireless usb to work and right off install it works with ubuntu
[04:48] <pastyhermit> for some reason it is definatly slower
[04:48] <acecase> fuzzyhair, http://www.nomachine.com/
[04:48] <pbx> LM1: zenity is a simple command-line tool for generating dialogs from shell scripts.  For simple user interaction.
[04:48] <bascule> pbx, there are many non-x requiring 'desktop' enviroments using the fbdev stuff, to resolve the small console google up hi-res consoles ubuntu
[04:48] <pastyhermit> I turned off al the visual crap...
[04:48] <pastyhermit> but still
[04:48] <acecase> fuzzyhair, they have clients and servers for linux/windows/mac
[04:49] <pbx> bascule: thanks!
[04:49] <KevlarSoul> I installed Ubuntu , it created a new partition, everything seemed to setup nicely, I rebooted, and it went to windows like I didnt install anything else? No Dual boot choice? I use Vista....anyone?
[04:49] <kittyhawk> bascule: dpkg-query says compiz and compiz-plugins are installed.  Do I need to do something to activate them?
[04:49] <acecase> fuzzyhair, best of all they have debs :)
[04:49] <pastyhermit> maybe I will just slide another disk in here
[04:49] <bascule> kittyhawk: alt+F2 -> compiz
[04:49] <lucas_> hi. i can't print a document because i need to replace the ink. i have an epson stylus cx3900 and don't know which of the 4 cartridges to replace (cyan, yellow, magenta, black).. in windows there was a program that showed me the ink left in each cartridge..
[04:49] <mechdave> pastyhermit: I am not aware of any, try googling them. I just have never heard of XP being faster than ubuntu
[04:49] <timothywcrane> slow ubuntu? http://desktoplinux.com/news/NS5715846915.html this might help
[04:49] <pbx> lucas_: I'd check your manual to see if there's a way to get the printer to tell you.
[04:50] <acecase> fuzzyhair, one thing to remember is that when installing the server you need to install the two dependencies first. (as usual) the downloads page shows the deps
[04:50] <pastyhermit> mechdave, well for some reason, for this hardware (thinkpad R31) it is
[04:50] <bascule> pastyhermit: LPI-2 and you can't remove ubuntu, your not very good...
[04:50] <timothywcrane> quick Google for speed up linux came up with it, no guarantees
[04:50] <pastyhermit> bascule, heh no, I have just never used gparted all that much
[04:50] <jrib> LM1: 'man zenity'  should be easy to follow.  Try 'zenity --info' for an example
[04:51] <bascule> pastyhermit: partitions are partitions, many tools
[04:51] <rico> hey guys. how do I boot Ubuntu and make it go to a cmd prompt, and /not/ GDM?
[04:51] <pastyhermit> bascule, fdisk doesnt resize.
[04:51] <rico> (using grub)
[04:51] <JEFFmasterFlex> pastyhermit:  if you want to go back to XP I recommend using the GParted LiveCD instead of the Ubuntu disc. THe Ubuntu partitioner is pretty crappy
[04:51] <kittyhawk> bascule: I ran compiz --replace at the command line, same story only a fraction of the background is drawn
[04:51] <desertc> Hello - I am having problems with Launchpad.  I cannot create my personal wiki -- it errors and says I don't have permissions.
[04:51] <kittyhawk> also the panels are cut off
[04:51] <bascule> kittyhawk: then I am baffled
[04:51] <kittyhawk> but I can drag windows over there and they work fine
[04:51] <kittyhawk> it's very strange
[04:51] <pastyhermit> JEFFmasterFlex, thanks you, that was the advice I was looking for
[04:52] <acecase> have a good one *
[04:52] <mechdave> pastyhermit: Looks like you aren't alone with the R31 problems!
[04:52] <pastyhermit> thanks JEFFmasterFlex , see bascule that is the kind of thing that I have not yet ventured into, there are many ways of doing things, both good and bad, both clean and sloppy, dont assume that Im and idiot just because I have not problems admitting that I cant know everything and there are better ways of doing things.
[04:53] <bascule> pastyhermit: sure
[04:53] <rico> hey guys. how do I boot Ubuntu and make it go to a cmd prompt, and /not/ GDM?
[04:53] <Ghismo> hi guys
[04:53] <Ghismo> i have a particular question for u
[04:53] <Rabbitbunny> has anyboy gotten a sixthgen iPod (160Gb Classic) working under 6.06?
[04:53] <Ghismo> i wish to see
[04:53] <pastyhermit> mechdave, no Im not, I also had to flash the NIC to get it quasi reliable
[04:53] <Ghismo> the rugby world cup
[04:53] <Ghismo> but in my country u have to pay to see it
[04:53] <pastyhermit> This is an excellent laptop...
[04:54] <westjd> when I close the lid of my laptop and open it back up the graphics are scrabbled.
[04:54] <Rabbitbunny> rico: ctrl+alt+F1 anytime it's booted.
[04:54] <_0xf> Hi, im isntalling a fresh copy of ubuntu and im on the partition screen. i want to make a small boot partition so i can encrypt the rest of the disk with truecrypt
[04:54] <Ghismo> so i'm wondering if there is a channel of another country
[04:54] <_0xf> do i just make a /booot
[04:54] <JEFFmasterFlex> pastyhermit:  the thinkpads rock, too bad you had a better experience with XP, but I say go with what works for you
[04:54] <Ghismo> and if does exist a tool for see it
[04:54] <Ghismo> anyone could help me?
[04:54] <rico> Rabbitbunny, I'm updating my X server drivers and there's a risk that my system will hang the moment it gets to GDM. is there a way to bypass it?
[04:54] <rico> single mode perhaps?
[04:54] <pastyhermit> JEFFmasterFlex, well the tools I use are all OSS
[04:54] <pastyhermit> (LAMP) stuff
[04:55] <pastyhermit> Eclipse subversion PHP MySQL etc...
[04:55] <fuzzyhair> acecase: I will be able to use this outside of my network right?
[04:55] <Rabbitbunny> rico: if it hangs hard boot and try again.
[04:55] <devious`> hi all
[04:55] <pastyhermit> perhaps I will give them another shot on ubuntu but I've gotta stop all this crap from loading.
[04:55] <devious`> i got a problem: cant boot my kubuntu partition :S
[04:55] <pastyhermit> bascule, you do see my point above though no?
[04:55] <bascule> sure
[04:56] <pastyhermit> devious`, what happened? did you install something over it, or muddle with your partition table?
[04:56] <_0xf> anyone?
[04:56] <devious`> pastyhermit: i didnt do anythin, i just restarted and it wont boot anymore. Im a newb to linux so i didnt mess with anything. From windows, that partition appears as RAW!!
[04:57] <delagrandy> how to configure samba to work with xp
[04:57] <LM1> jrib, thanks but I think zenity is a bit over my head :C
[04:57] <vsayikiran> please help me, i am able to download .torrent file
[04:57] <so> hello friends
[04:57] <bascule> devious`: it would, windows can't see linux partitions
[04:57] <_0xf> anyone??
[04:57] <_0xf> should i make /boot 8gb   swap 4gb / 59gb and /media/hda7 4gb
[04:57] <neopsyche> Hi, how do i open device manager on feisty?
[04:58] <so> can you tell me about a graphic apps to mount disk images ?
[04:58] <vsayikiran> anyone tell me how to download .torrent file
[04:58] <MrPink> vsayikiran download Azureus
[04:58] <so> _0xf, swap have to be about 10 % of your total disk space
[04:58] <devious`> bascule: no man, i installed Ext2IFS_1_10c recently, and it shows linux partition and i could see everything inside. But since yestarday it appears RAW
[04:58] <flokuehn> _0xf: what do you want to put on your boot partition?
[04:58] <JEFFmasterFlex> vsayikiran:  you need a torrent client. ubuntu has one built in, then there is deluge, transmission, azureus
[04:58] <bascule> devious`: I see, then that is a problem
[04:58] <MrPink> I thought swap was suposed to be 2x Ram
[04:59] <so> _0xf, depending on your ram
[04:59] <mechdave> _0xf: I have always made boot about 200Mb, swap twice ram and the rest I just divided up into whatever I thought reasonable for what I was doing at the time
[04:59] <bascule> so: MrPink is right 2x RAM
[04:59] <vsayikiran> JeFF: but it is giving some error
[04:59] <so> bascule, oui / yes
[04:59] <devious`> bascule: is there in linux something like dos command 'fixboot' or something like that. It helped with windows situations
[04:59] <neopsyche> do i need to install special drivers for my ati card?
[04:59] <JEFFmasterFlex> MrPink: that only applie if you have less than 1 GB of RAM. you can cheat on the SWAP with that much ram
[04:59] <maillerou> hello, how to know how many disk free space
[05:00] <maillerou> i have an account on a university server
[05:00] <maillerou> i use df
[05:00] <maillerou> but i don't know ?
[05:00] <so> oh :) i was right then , if you have a lot of ram you can put lower swap space
[05:00] <fuzzyhair> fuzzyhair
[05:00] <Ghismo> guys i need a programe to see tv on my linux box...i mean streaming
[05:00] <maillerou> ???
[05:00] <bascule> devious`: fixboot/fixmbr address issyues with ntldr, like re doing grub-install or editing menu.lst
[05:00] <maillerou> how to know my quota ?
[05:00] <Ghismo> could anyone suggest anything?
[05:00] <so> vlc ?
[05:00] <maillerou> my admin gave me a ~ home
[05:00] <fuzzyhair> I meant to ctrl+f that. Sorry.
[05:00] <bascule> devious`: this is a partition problem
[05:00] <vsayikiran> JeFF: bittorrent is giving some errors
[05:00] <maillerou> and a /global/myname
[05:00] <so> i need a program to mout images with graphic interface
[05:01] <devious`> bascule: the only thing i did was to update system from Package Manager, and new version of kubuntu kernel appeared on my boot menu.
[05:01] <mechdave> Last time I installed Ubuntu I just made it all a LVM
[05:01] <vsayikiran> JeFF: when downloading i get this error (-2, name or service not known)
[05:01] <JEFFmasterFlex> so: i use kiso in kde, i thin kfor GNOME there is one called MasterISO or ISOMaster
[05:01] <sdRhod> hi guys. I wonder if you can help... I am trying to install Ubuntu from the bootable CD version I downloaded earlier. It gets through the 'loading kernel' stage, then displays a progress bar swooshing left and right, and then my PC num lock key starts flashing and the progress bar stops at one bar full (where it currently remains). Any ideas?
[05:01] <bascule> devious`: have you tried to boot both, have you run fsck from recover mode?
[05:02] <so> JEFFmasterFlex,  i heard also about gnome iso or gnomiso forgot the correct name
[05:02] <vsayikiran> JEFFmasterFlex: when downloading i get this error (-2, name or service not known)
[05:02] <timothywcrane> files register on locate, but refuse to play in any player under CLI, says file not found. Searched all day for answer. It must be so simple. But wracked my brain to no avail.
[05:02] <devious`> bascule: i tried to boot both, and neither one works. I did not run fsck from recovery mode. What is it, and should i try it?
[05:02] <Shady^> Hey! I just installed Ubuntu on my old laptop, i installed it to the HDD, then restarted it! Now the screen is black, how do i get it to work? :P
[05:02] <JEFFmasterFlex> vsayikiran:  try using deluge. download the torrent file and then open it up with deluge
[05:02] <bascule> devious`: fsck is a file system checker like chkdsk /r , it may well solve the problem
[05:03] <devious`> ok, ill restart now, come back in a min with results, hopely from linux :D
[05:03] <so> timothywcrane, what kind of streaming is it ?
[05:03] <vsayikiran> JEFFmasterFlex: but whats is the problem with bittorrent
[05:03] <devious`> bascule:  ok, ill restart now, come back in a min with results, hopely from linux :D
[05:03] <bascule> a min, fsck will take longer than that ..
[05:03] <JEFFmasterFlex> vsayikiran:  I don't know I don't use Gnome.
[05:03] <timothywcrane> simple .ogg files
[05:03] <Shady^> Hey! I just installed Ubuntu on my old laptop, i installed it to the HDD, then restarted it! Now the screen is black, how do i get it to work? :P
[05:03] <MrPink> vsaykiran as I said Azureus is a good linux BitTorrent Client!
[05:04] <timothywcrane> and .wavs
[05:04] <so> timothywcrane, you have to get the correct codec for vlc
[05:04] <timothywcrane> in gui everything works ok.
[05:04] <vsayikiran> is there anyone who uses bittorrent
[05:04] <so> timothywcrane, ok so why do you need it in console mode ?
[05:04] <timothywcrane> does it not grab the codecs in CLI? seems strange
[05:04] <so> :))
[05:04] <MrPink> yes ^^
[05:04] <MrPink> I use torrent
[05:04] <kenchu0> http://www.flashasylum.com/db/files/Comics/Dave/comicexam.png
[05:05] <mmkassem> vsayikiran: what are trying to download?
[05:05] <Shady^> hello im gay ;)
[05:05] <timothywcrane> to run it via cron, for an automated clock. They are grandfather clock chime files
[05:05] <vsayikiran> mmkassem: i am trying to download a .torrent file
[05:05] <MrPink> vsayikiran can you read what I am writing? lol
[05:06] <vsayikiran> mmkassem: this torrent file is easily downloading in winxp
[05:06] <Hotkey> Just installed 7.10 - no system sounds tho.??
[05:06] <naknomik> I have a ftp server on which I want to put some files and keep them sync'd from my local drive. Can I use rsync for that?
[05:06] <MrPink> VSAYIKIRAN ?!?
[05:06] <so> i dont know  :)
[05:07] <maillerou> naknomik : use sitecopy ...
[05:07] <maillerou> check sitecopy on the net
[05:07] <TUXedomember> hey guy's ok so each time i log in my computer logs me out right after i log in anyone know why?
[05:07] <MrPink> hm why do I have the feeling that vsayikiran can't read what I am writing ?
[05:08] <Trixsey> Hey I just installed Ubuntu but my screen turned black, I suspect something is up with the drivers (I need to enable prop. drivers?).. could someone give me a guide? I'm using ATI :)
[05:08] <aidehua> If I add another graphics card to my PC, will it be easy to setup a two display system?
[05:08] <so> TUXedomember,  have you seen the x server log ?
[05:08] <TUXedomember> no how do i see it?
[05:08] <aidehua> (Specifically, I'm after a mirrored display setup.)
[05:08] <so> TUXedomember, google
[05:09] <devious`> didnt help, still cant boot  :(
[05:09] <timothywcrane> I cant even get my files to play through evolution calender appointment, custom command function, but if I open player, then choose files, all is well. I just can seem to  get them to play in single string such as  totem,xine, mplayer, etc then filename
[05:10] <mmkassem> vsayikiran: did you download the .torrent file then run it by bittorrent ? .. MrPink is suggesting to use Azureus .. I prefer Deluge
[05:10] <aidehua> This question could easily be answered if I can think of the right google search terms :D
[05:10] <hollandlucas> I too prefer Deluge
[05:10] <vsayikiran> MrPink: you said above that Azureus is good torrent client, then you said you also use torrent
[05:10] <devious`> this was the main reason why i left windows for linux, so i would not wake up one day and find out my system wont boot for an unknown reason. Now, few days later, im having the same problem with linux. FFS am i dissapointed!!!!
[05:11] <rico> hey guys, how can I restore my xorg.conf to it's default?
[05:11] <MrPink> yeah I meant that I download torrents and have had good experience with azureus
[05:11] <rico> I modified it a bit (added a modeline), I didn't make a backup.
[05:11] <vsayikiran> mmkassem: yes i downloaded the .torrent file and then from bittorrent package i opened the .torrent file
[05:11] <timothywcrane> I have not used it, but I have heard good things about Azureus also
[05:11] <so> devious`, it's life
[05:11] <devious`> so: than life sux.
[05:11] <MrPink> rico: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg      I think
[05:11] <punzada> deludge is better for ubuntu then running azureus
[05:11] <so> devious`, get more virus under windows, and pay for support, that'"s better ;)
[05:11] <punzada> azureus is a memory whore
[05:11] <so> yes punzada , do you know any better ?
[05:12] <punzada> deludge
[05:12] <so> utorrent is not compatible with linux
[05:12] <devious`> so: no, its not better, but what can i do with system that wont boot? I need to work man, and i cant if it wont start!
[05:12] <LM1> what!
[05:12] <LM1> lol
[05:12] <LM1> utorrent works fine with wine
[05:12] <Kenny3> i need a good website to find most linux software existing
[05:12] <hollandlucas> devious`: what's the problem?
[05:12] <Trixsey> Can I boot gnome in safe mode?
[05:12] <bullgard4> Using Freenode network and Irssi and sending a message to an OP beginning with /msg, will this message use the Direct-Client-to-Client (dcc) protocol?
[05:12] <so> LM1, really ?
[05:12] <punzada> why even bother with utorrent when you can use deludge i don't get it lol
[05:12] <MrPink> punzada you are right about the  memory thing... but I usually only download when not working on my pc
[05:12] <aidehua> Ah: it's called "Xinerama".
[05:12] <rico> mrpink, thank you. :)
[05:12] <LM1> I use azureus only because I don't trust closed source
[05:12] <vsayikiran> is it deludge or deluge
[05:13] <devious`> hollandlucas: i cant boot my linux, and its partition appears RAW. for no appearent reason
[05:13] <Trixsey> I'm using an ATI card but prop. drivers are disabled so my screen is black, can I boot Gnome in safe mode?
[05:13] <LM1> but I know for a fact utorrent works fine using wine
[05:13] <vsayikiran> please dont confuse me, which is the best, some say Azureus, some deluge, and few others utorrent
[05:13] <punzada> it's deluge i'm stupid
[05:13] <punzada> lol
[05:13] <LM1> I also use shareaza emule and winrar perfectly in wine
[05:13] <hollandlucas> devious`: what happens when you power on your computer?
[05:13] <punzada> why use all that software in wine?
[05:13] <punzada> lol
[05:13] <punzada> you can use command line rar
[05:13] <MrPink> rico I hope its right, I had to use it too once.. but that is from memory ^^
[05:13] <timothywcrane> windows does not recognize linux partitions
[05:13] <punzada> and have it be much more efficient
[05:13] <LM1> CLI sux
[05:13] <punzada> ...
[05:13] <rocky> I  cannot enable desktop effects can some one help me plz
[05:13] <LM1> the gui evolved and became dominant for a reason
[05:13] <LM1> :)
[05:13] <sdRhod> does the ubuntu installer offer to format my hdd for me? or do I have to set up the drive and any partitions in advance?
[05:14] <punzada> rar e file.rar directory
[05:14] <rico> mrpink, seems to be doing the right thing.
[05:14] <punzada> you don't even need the last parameter
[05:14] <punzada> wtf is easier then that
[05:14] <punzada> much easier then loading wine
[05:14] <punzada> lol
[05:14] <timothywcrane> try to enter into safe mode, hit escape and enter kernel choices upon reboot
[05:14] <MrPink> sdrhod you have the possibility to manually partition it via installer
[05:14] <sdRhod> ok thanks
[05:14] <jrib> punzada, LM1: you can extract rar files in the gui as well
[05:14] <LM1> sorry I disagree punzada
[05:14] <Shapeshifter> Uhm... so now I set up my messenger, my mail, my vpn and vnc connections, nice costumized compiz-fusion, bootsplash and theme, all drivers working, virtualbox with XP working.... well....what else fun to do now? ;)
[05:14] <LM1> yah I have rar set up for the gui
[05:14] <punzada> yeah but the built in gui is lame for extraction :)
[05:14] <Trixsey> vsayikiran, BT client is a matter of preference.. some find Azureus too extensive.. some run WINE+uTorrent :p
[05:14] <LM1> but I need advanced features it doesn't have so I use winrar
[05:14] <devious`> hollandlucas: it gives me boot menu, from wich i select one of two kubuntu kernels. Then it gives me the loading screen, and after that just a dead blank screen. I can write letters on it, but not commands, after hitting enter it just goes to another row, like a text editor. Than i have to restart, than the whole story again. And when i look at that partition it appears RAW.
[05:14] <so> yeah
[05:15] <Trixsey> vsayikiran, personally I like Azureus =)
[05:15] <MrPink> rico good :)
[05:15] <so> slow p2p
[05:15] <so> ressource whore
[05:15] <Trixsey> vsayikiran, but the repo install of azureus was broken last time I used Ubuntu
[05:15] <hollandlucas> devious`: try pressing ctr+z
[05:15] <LM1> azureus ftw if you have 2gb of ram
[05:15] <bascule> Shapeshifter: break it all by rebuilding and installing a vanilla kernel from kernel.org
[05:15] <hollandlucas> devious`: maybe then you can enter commands
[05:15] <LM1> utorrent is good but its closed source and been bought out by the man
[05:15] <so> i have 1.5 gb
[05:15] <Ghismo> is there anyone from england?
[05:15] <LM1> so...
[05:15] <so> so :)
[05:15] <Shapeshifter> bascule: lol yeah, been there, done that :P
[05:15] <LM1> ktorrent is also a good choice
[05:15] <rocky>  cannot enable desktop effects
[05:15] <MrPink> lol bought out by "the man"
[05:15] <MrPink> thats good ^^
[05:15] <LM1> if you don't mind using kde libs
[05:15] <Hotkey> How come in sound preferences panel I get all sounds when  testing but normal system sounds never occur?
[05:15] <bascule> Shapeshifter: well it's kinda fun ... :)
[05:15] <so> the rich man :)
[05:15] <devious`> hollandlucas: i dont want to enter commands, i want kde to start. I can acces recovery mode from boot menu, but i dont know what to do next
[05:16] <MrPink> yeah I can't enable desktop effects either
[05:16] <vsayikiran> hollandlucas: i have 1gb ram
[05:16] <Shapeshifter> what was the name of that "new" p2p prog again?
[05:16] <MrPink> if anyone is savey on that area, that would be great :-P
[05:16] <hollandlucas> devious`: when you go into recovery mode
[05:16] <so> donate some money so i can buy a dual core E6600
[05:16] <hollandlucas> you can enter command right?
[05:16] <so> :p
[05:16] <Shady^> how do i boot in safe mode?
[05:16] <so> f2
[05:16] <Shapeshifter> Shady^: in grub select recovery mode
[05:16] <MrPink> Shady it should be listed in the grub menu... if not you have to edit your grub.list  I think
[05:16] <rocky> I have a ati mobility radeom 7500 card
[05:16] <devious`> hollandlucas: yes?
[05:17] <hollandlucas> try startx
[05:17] <humbolto> what do I need to do to make googleearth work well on compiz-fusion AIGLX nvidia?
[05:17] <rocky> do i need to update it? so i cant enable my desktop effects
[05:17] <vsayikiran> apt-get install Azureus is not working
[05:17] <devious`> hollandlucas: any other idea so i dont have to start windows again
[05:17] <so> what is the package name for fs3G ?
[05:17] <hollandlucas> devious`: what happens when you go into recovery mode and type startx?
[05:18] <devious`> ill be back in a minute, have to try it
[05:18] <devious`> hollandlucas: ^^
[05:18] <Ghismo> i guys i'm looking for something like sopcast for ubuntu
[05:18] <selinuxium_> Hi guys, where would I find my keymap? trying to install a keylogger on my home system, my brother is starting to become a pain!
[05:18] <Ghismo> could anyone give me a trick
[05:18] <so> no :)
[05:19] <bascule> Ghismo: apt-cache search sopcast
[05:19] <MrPink> vsayikiran  try to search for it in Synaptic Manager
[05:19] <Shady^> MrPink thanks! But i've installed unbuntu to my hard drive, the only way to get into the grub meny is if i start with the cd
[05:19] <so> selinuxium_, install a trojan, that's better
[05:19] <xcst> how can i make mplayer my default player instead of totem?
[05:19] <timothywcrane> go into preferred applications set defaults
[05:19] <rocky> is there a way to call ubuntu for serive?
[05:20] <Hotkey> Help please -  How come in sound preferences panel I get all sounds when  testing but normal system sounds never occur?
[05:20] <MrPink> Shady ehm... I donno if I know what you mean... but you don't have a list of kernels to boot from or windows partition or something when you boot? So no bootscreen ?
[05:20] <JEFFmasterFlex> xcst:  right click on the file and click on prperties, i think the right most tab lets you picj the default for that file type
[05:20] <JEFFmasterFlex> pick*
[05:20] <frojnd> hello there
[05:20] <frojnd> Where in open office can I change language...
[05:20] <kane77> what are the names of the packages for codecs?
[05:20] <kittyhawk> bascule: I found a bug report that suggested changing the depth to 16, which worked.  Thanks for your help though

[05:21] <frojnd> hollandlucas: and I can change this under system settings?
[05:21] <Ghismo> u're right
[05:21] <vsayikiran> MrPink: there are two packages which one to install , azureus, or azureus-gcj
[05:21] <mmkassem> rocky: did you try restoring your xorg.conf ?
[05:21] <Shady^> MrPink i only see the grub meny when i start with the ubuntu cd, i've installed it to my HDD, and when i start without the cd the screen goes black!
[05:21] <Ghismo> i've just found it
[05:21] <Ghismo> thank you
[05:21] <hollandlucas> frojnd: there's n item called language support or something like that
[05:21] <devious`> hollandlucas: it said: Server error: no screens found
[05:22] <hollandlucas> devious`: okay, let me think
[05:22] <devious`> hollandlucas: does this happen often with linux?
[05:22] <hollandlucas> devious`: pastebin your xorg.conf
[05:22] <hollandlucas> devious`: no
[05:22] <MrPink> vsayikiran my guess is "azreus" but isn't there a descriptive text underneith ?
[05:22] <rocky> I dont think I did
[05:22] <devious`> hollandlucas: what you mean with my xorg.conf?
[05:22] <hollandlucas> devious`: xorg.conf is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:22] <MrPink> Shady^  I see.. sorry then, I am relatively new to linux myself
[05:23] <Shady^> MrPink thanks anyway :D
[05:23] <JEFFmasterFlex> vsayikiran: if you have Sun Java installed then you install the regular azureus package. If not, install the gcj package
[05:23] <david003> hello. i have a game taht is launched by doubleclicking on the program. how do i set it up that it starts if i tipe in a shell "nameofthegame"?
[05:23] <hollandlucas> devious`: it's file that configures your xserver, the piece of software responsible for displaying things on the screen
[05:23] <MrPink> Shady^ sure ;)
[05:23] <hollandlucas> you can read the contents with: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:23] <devious`> hollandlucas: hmm, i cant acces anything in my linux partition, how am i supposed to get that file?
[05:23] <hollandlucas> devious`: oh
[05:23] <hollandlucas> try cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:23] <hollandlucas> what does it tell you
[05:23] <vsayikiran> JEFFmasterFlex: how can i know whether i have sun java installed or not?
[05:24] <devious`> hollandlucas: its the same computer so i have to restart to boot from linux :(
[05:24] <so> my hd is not detected has master, and it dont work as a master, when put in master it's it a 32 gb, when there is no jumper, it's detected correctly as a 120 gb hd. how come ?
[05:24] <so> i have 2 SATA of 500 gb
[05:24] <bascule> devious`: if you try to mount the /  partition from recovery, what does it say?
[05:24] <MrPink> Trixsey I can't do PMs I am not registered to the nameserver thingy
[05:24] <Kenny3> who knows good color picker and screen ruler?
[05:24] <JEFFmasterFlex> vsayikiran:  just install it. in synaptic search for Sun Java. There is java 5 and java 6 in the repos
[05:24] <MrPink> Kenny3 for firefox or for the desktop ?
[05:24] <rico> how do I connect via Wifi via the console?
[05:24] <JEFFmasterFlex> you can also install if from Add/Remove if I remember correctly
[05:25] <david003> hello. i have a game taht is launched by doubleclicking on the program. how do i set it up that it starts if i tipe in a shell "nameofthegame"?
[05:25] <Trixsey> MrPink, oh ok.. could you read what I sent ya? :p
[05:25] <bascule> rico: man iwconfig
[05:25] <labanux> how can I access SSH through proxy? yes, i can do it with Putty, buat can i do it directly using terminal?
[05:25] <hollandlucas> david003: find out where the game binary is
[05:25] <bascule> labanux: ssh supports proxy
[05:25] <Kenny3> MrPink desktop
[05:25] <devious`> bascule: windows as linux is on same computer, so i cant just try the command. i have to restart computer than try than load windows again. Thats kinda slow. Is there any virtual machine software i could use?
[05:25] <hollandlucas> and make sure the directory the game binary is in is in your PATH
[05:25] <Trixsey> labanux, ssh -X user@server?
[05:25] <david003> hollandlucas: i know where it is, usr/local/games/openarena
[05:26] <alejonet> Hola a todos...
[05:26] <MrPink> yeah and it sounds like the same problem Shady^ has... and I wasn't sure how to help him either
[05:26] <labanux> bascule: could you give example how to do that?
[05:26] <hollandlucas> and when you type openarena on the shell
[05:26] <vsayikiran> JEFFmasterFlex: there are two packages sunjava5bin and sun-java6bin smth.
[05:26] <alejonet> desde COlombia tengo una pregunta
[05:26] <hollandlucas> david003: it tells you command not found?
[05:26] <bascule> devious`: to access a broken local linux partition, hmmm really not sure :(
[05:26] <labanux> Trixsey: i'll try it
[05:26] <alejonet> necesito los drivers para MSI
[05:26] <david003> yep
[05:26] <MrPink> Kenny3 then no, sry only have those as addons in firefox ;)
[05:26] <david003> hollandlucas: yes
[05:26] <JEFFmasterFlex> vsayikiran:  you can install either. either of them will work. go with java6.. it's the newest one
[05:26] <david003> hollandlucas: it isnt under bin
[05:26] <NielsE> I have found this great replacement for katapult in gnome, called gnome-launch-box, where can I set a shortcut for this program in gnome?
[05:26] <hollandlucas> david003: the problem is that /usr/local/games is not on your PATH
[05:26] <Trixsey> labanux, that's with X, if you dont want a graphical interface then you can skip the -X parameter
[05:27] <vsayikiran> JEFFmasterFlex: after installing sun java 6 i can install azureus
[05:27] <david003> hollandlucas: dont really knwo what that means...how do i fix it?
[05:27] <gokhan_> i'm going to install easycam2 for my internal webcam on my Toshiba laptop but synaptic also wants to install some additional packages like gcc 3.1 and gcc 3.1base but i already have gcc 4.1 so might installing it affect my system?
[05:27] <timothywcrane> found my problem. GUI not affected by space found in filename, but CLI sensitive to it. Removed space, all is well
[05:27] <alejonet> SOMEBODY CAN GIVE ME INFORMATION ABOUT MSI DRIVERS????
[05:27] <draco2002> Anyone know where you can download the "Ubuntu JeOS" version?
[05:27] <JEFFmasterFlex> vsayikiran: yes
[05:27] <Shady^> Trixsey din sta fan
[05:27] <ardit> can anyone do me shippin of Ubuntu cos i have really slow internet coonection an takes me weeeeks to download it??
[05:27] <Trixsey> hahaha
[05:27] <david003> hollandlucas: dont i need to create a shortcut under /usr/bin or something?
[05:27] <vsayikiran> JEFFmasterFlex: thanks
[05:27] <labanux> Trixsey: then how can I set the proxy?
[05:27] <devious`> hollandlucas: i have managed to open the xorg.cfg file, what to do now?
[05:28] <hollandlucas> david003: The PATH is a variable that contains a set of directores. When you type in a command at the shell, the shell searches everything in your path (all directories in there that is) for the binary you wanted to open (by typing its name)
[05:28] <MrPink> devious: copy and paste it to www.pastebin.com and send the link in here
[05:28] <Trixsey> labanux, if an SSH proxy works like a HTTP proxy you should just refer to your proxy as the server and it should pass the data to the target server
[05:29] <hollandlucas> david003: you don't. You have to add the directory to your PATH
[05:29] <AutoMatriX_> Hi folks, does anybody know how to access a Mio C210 Gps with Feisty ?
[05:29] <Condoulo> ok, I have a question. I installed Gnash player through Synaptic, but how would I get Firefox to use it?
[05:29] <hollandlucas> david003: like this: open ~/.bashrc
[05:29] <hollandlucas> in a text editor
[05:29] <devious`> hollandlucas: http://pastebin.com/m1e1688c0
[05:29] <david003> hollandlucas: i actually solved the problem by adding the shortcut
[05:29] <oliver_g_> hi
[05:29] <david003> hollandlucas: thanks for helping me
[05:29] <devious`> hollandlucas: maybe line 88, 89?
[05:29] <hollandlucas> david003: you added a shortcut to it in a directory that's in the path ;-)
[05:29] <ardit> can anyone do me shippin of Ubuntu cos i have really slow internet coonection an takes me weeeeks to download it??
[05:30] <hollandlucas> devious`: so you CAN access files on your linux partition
[05:30] <david003> hollandlucas: sorry, could you repeat?
[05:30] <devious`> ardit: where you at?
[05:30] <hollandlucas> david003: You added a link to the game binary in a directory that is on your path ;-)
[05:30] <devious`> hollandlucas: yes, it appears now i can access it, from Windows!
[05:30] <so> no :)
[05:30] <labanux> Trixsey: i mean, my network was behind a http proxy server, then i want to access my web hosting SSH server. Can I do this using terminal? I only can do this using Putty right now.. :(
[05:30] <ardit> albania
[05:30] <Condoulo> Who here can inform me on how to get Firefox to use Gnash player instead of Adobe flash player?
[05:30] <devious`> hollandlucas: i cant explain how or why
[05:30] <MrPink> ardit: I think you can have it shipped to you from the Ubuntu page if I am not mistaken... but that takes like 3-4 weeks or so
[05:30] <oliver_g_> i have installed ssh server on Gutsy live cd but can't log in - can you tell me what's the password for the "ubuntu" user?
[05:30] <david003> hollandlucas: exactly. and it works. is it okay like that or is it dangerous?
[05:30] <hollandlucas> it's okay I'd say
[05:30] <hollandlucas> not dangerous
[05:31] <hollandlucas> I'd have done it differently
[05:31] <david003> great
[05:31] <hollandlucas> but as long as it works ;-)
[05:31] <hollandlucas> if it ain't broke...
[05:31] <so> how do you install a security camera software under ubuntu ?
[05:31] <labanux> Trixsey: should I do something like: ssh -proxy host:8080 user@host ?
[05:31] <david003> the thing is taht like this if i need to remove the game i dont need to edit anything...
[05:31] <david003> i just delete the folder and shortcut
[05:31] <MrPink> ok, hope I could help out some of you, gotta go... ciao!
[05:31] <DIL> so: Zoneminder is good
[05:31] <HELP09> I am getting NTLDR is missing error
[05:31] <HELP09> I dual booted with GNOME and XP
[05:31] <hollandlucas> david003: if you'd done it by adding it to the path you would have ended up deleting the game and removing it from the PATH
[05:31] <so> DIL,  does it work correctly now ?
[05:31] <HELP09> and then I tried formatting ext3 on windows
[05:32] <JEFFmasterFlex> HELP09:  did you install XP after ubuntu?
[05:32] <ardit> 3-4 weeks!! long
[05:32] <HELP09> No
[05:32] <Trixsey> labanux, you could try.. I haven't used SSH with proxy to be honest
[05:32] <david003> harder to remember.....
[05:32] <HELP09> I had xp before
[05:32] <HELP09> I dualed ubuntu
[05:32] <Trixsey> labanux, shoud be easy enough to find out how to use it with the help command :p
[05:32] <ardit> by that time i could probably download it
[05:32] <david003> hollandlucas: thanks for everything. where is the PATH file?
[05:32] <Ahadiel> labanux, ssh -D 9090 user@host.com
[05:32] <hollandlucas> david003: PATH is not a file
[05:32] <Ahadiel> labanux, you can change the port to w/e you want
[05:32] <HELP09> Guys
[05:32] <HELP09> Why did my XP stop working
[05:32] <hollandlucas> david003: It's an environment variable
[05:32] <HELP09> When I formatted Linux_Ext3
[05:33] <gokhan_> i'm going to install easycam2 for my internal webcam on my Toshiba laptop but synaptic also wants to install some additional packages like gcc 3.1 and gcc 3.1base but i already have gcc 4.1 so might installing it affect my system?
[05:33] <david003> hollandlucas: where can i find it, for futhure use?
[05:33] <ardit> i thought i could be in somethin like 3-4 workin days
[05:33] <labanux> Ahadiel: wait a minute.., i'll try it..
[05:33] <HELP09> with paragon partition manager
[05:33] <hollandlucas> david003: you can manipulate it by doing the following:
[05:33] <Ahadiel> labanux, then you change your socks5 proxy settings to localhost, and the port you chose
[05:33] <hollandlucas> david003: open ~/.bashrc in a text editor
[05:33] <devious`> hollandlucas: can you take a look plz: http://pastebin.com/m1e1688c0
[05:33] <hollandlucas> devious`: in a sec
[05:33] <Kenny3> who know a screen ruler?
[05:33] <david003> hollandlucas: done, next?
[05:33] <HELP09> God, they said that people help here.
[05:33] <ir6> Hi, what's X shared memory extension ?
[05:33] <oliver_g_> Kenny3: try kruler (it's a KDE app but should work under Gnome as well)
[05:34] <hollandlucas> david003: append: PATH=$PATH:/path/you/want/to/add     and on a new line export PATH
[05:34] <hollandlucas> ~ is your home directory
[05:34] <hollandlucas> re-open your shell
[05:34] <hollandlucas> and it should've picked up the changes
[05:34] <DIL> Help: how may drives did you have
[05:34] <labanux> Ahadiel: is that mean that I must make a connection to user@host using port 9090 as a Socks proxy?
[05:34] <david003> just at the bottom?
[05:34] <devious`> HELP09: ppl do help here, but if you are patient
[05:34] <DIL> Help: how may drives did you have
[05:34] <ManaPirat> hi guys :-)
[05:34] <HELP09> Yeah but =/
[05:34] <david003> hollandlucas: just at the bottom?
[05:34] <DIL> Help09: how may drives did you have
[05:34] <labanux> Ahadiel: but i can't access anywhere and any port without using my network proxy.. :(
[05:35] <hollandlucas> david003: yes
[05:35] <Ahadiel> labanux, your host would be localhost, and your port would be 9090
[05:35] <david003> great
[05:35] <Ahadiel> labanux, I don't really understand D:
[05:35] <david003> hollandlucas: and do i repeat export path everitime or i just add paths over that?
[05:35] <DIL> Help09: how may drives did you have? did you format the entire drive?
[05:35] <hollandlucas> you just add paths over that
[05:35] <hollandlucas> you need the export PATH only ONCE at the end of the file
[05:35] <Kenny3> oliver_g_ : i try, thanks
[05:36] <oliver_g_> ir6: do you mean this one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT-SHM
[05:36] <hollandlucas> devious`: I thought your problem was solved?
[05:36] <david003> hollandlucas: perfect, now i need to play a bit. thanks for all
[05:36] <oliver_g_> ir6: that's the more technical explanation, tough :-)
[05:36] <hollandlucas> david003: no problem
[05:36] <ManaPirat> Does somebody know the status of h.264  hardware accelerated decoding for Linux? (an ATI / NVIDIA subject maybe)
[05:36] <devious`> hollandlucas: no, it wasnt solved. :(
[05:36] <labanux> Ahadiel: If I can acces the port 9090 to user@host it means I've already able to connect to my SSH sever.. Meanwhile my problem is I can't access the SSH server..
[05:36] <hollandlucas> devious`: okay so you CAN access files on your linux partition?
[05:36] <hollandlucas> devious`: because you accessed xorg.conf
[05:37] <Ahadiel> labanux, Okay, well I dunno if you can't access your ssh server to begin with.
[05:37] <hollandlucas> devious`: your xorg.conf looks okay to me (but I'm no expert)
[05:37] <devious`> hollandlucas: yes, but i accessed it from Windows XP, i still cant load linux
[05:37] <Kenny3> whats a good software developing program?
[05:37] <hollandlucas> devious`: but you can access everything in recovery mode?
[05:37] <devious`> hollandlucas: look at lines 88 and 89
[05:37] <hollandlucas> devious`: looks like a problem with your xserver
[05:38] <hollandlucas> devious`: yeah?
[05:38] <devious`> hollandlucas: do you have thoose lines, can i delete them, i think they were added
[05:38] <hollandlucas> devious`: you're running compiz/beryl/compiz fusion?
[05:38] <devious`> well, i did try, but couldnt get it working
[05:38] <ouarza> rebonjour
[05:39] <devious`> hollandlucas: i added thoose lines manually cuz i followed the tutorial
[05:39] <hollandlucas> devious`: then remove or comment them (you comment them by adding a # to the beginning of the lines, thus having them ignored)
[05:39] <hollandlucas> devious`: and try if linux works
[05:39] <hollandlucas> devious`: if not, type startx again in recovery mode and tell me the error message
[05:39] <devious`> hollandlucas: ok, i will do that, be back soon
[05:40] <bascule> labanux: you have to add some stuff I liile understand to ~/.ssh/config
[05:40] <Martiini> how do I direct console output to a text file?
[05:40] <ksivaji> how to recover my root password
[05:41] <labanux> Ahadiel: yes.., I can't access my SSh server if I not using proxy. That's why i can connect to my SSh server using Putty, cause Putty provide configuration for proxy
[05:41] <bascule> labanux: corkscrew seems to be a helpful something
[05:41] <ksivaji> i forgot me root password
[05:41] <ksivaji> i forgot my* root password

[05:41] <FatMom> anyone got the vsync working with fglrx?
[05:41] <jrib> ksivaji: did you ever set one?
[05:41] <bascule> labanux: apt-get install corkscrew, if I understand the problem that is(?)
[05:42] <FatMom> I tried aticonfig --vs on     but it didnt work
[05:42] <ksivaji>  jrib yes
[05:42] <bascule> !info corkscrew
[05:42] <ubotu> corkscrew: tunnel TCP connections through HTTP proxies. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0-5 (feisty), package size 9 kB, installed size 72 kB

[05:46] <JEFFmasterFlex> _0xf: actually all you need is / and swap
[05:46] <HELP09> I never got a winxp cd with my pc
[05:46] <HELP09> Or you mean you can download one from somewhere?
[05:46] <Jimmey> How can I set the default NIC on Ubuntu 7.04? When I change my WLAN card from Roaming mode to static IP, I loose the internet connection - I think it's because one of the eth cards is getting priority.

[05:49] <JEFFmasterFlex> _0xf:  then make a /boot . in that case you only need /boot, /, and swap
[05:49] <bascule> kane77: python makes that easy
[05:49] <ferentix> In fact, CompizConfig Settings Manager doesn't even have a "turn Compiz on" type option
[05:49] <_0xf> ok ty

[05:52] <JEFFmasterFlex> _0xf:  format the partition first, then you can type the partition name of /
[05:53] <_0xf> wont let me format
[05:53] <_0xf> when i select it it just says new
[05:53] <oliver_g_> jroes: what type of motherboard do you use?
[05:53] <_0xf> i can only make a new one

[05:54] <Rizzla> one thing i'm completely cluesless on is how to install an app in ubuntu that I download
[05:55] <quittt> does anybody know how do I put the same plugins from Firefox on the Opera browser?
[05:55] <Rizzla> i dont have automatix installed
[05:55] <Rizzla> should i use synaptic to get automatix?
[05:55] <fermatstheorem> dhruv, Rizzla : automatix is a bad idea
[05:55] <dhruv> u need to synaptic or automatix
[05:55] <dhruv> i prefer automatix
[05:55] <so> i have a problem, my ntfs partitions are not seen in filesystem. they are mounted in fstab however i think there is an error
[05:55] <dhruv> i think automatix is easier
[05:56] <fermatstheorem> dhruv,Rizzla :it aint supported by ubuntu, it can kick your system in the family jewels
[05:56] <HELP09> Automatix is bad
[05:56] <HELP09> It crashed me once
[05:56] <quittt> how do I do it?
[05:56] <Rizzla> ok, i'll try and use synaptic again to download thunderbird.  THe main issues I have is when i use the ctrl+f2  then type thunderbird -ProfileManger
[05:56] <HELP09> just use ./configure
[05:56] <dhruv> yeah thats true
[05:56] <AJ--> hi guys.. is there a program for linux like CAMTASIA that can record a desktop
[05:56] <dhruv> aj use recordmydeskyop
[05:56] <Mr-Nilsen> how do i use samba to connect to a win xp comp ?
[05:56] <dhruv> gtk-recordmydesktop
[05:57] <AJ--> ahh ok tnx
[05:57] <dhruv> i think thunderbird is in synaptic too
[05:57] <Rizzla> alright, right now my synaptic is tied up because i'm installing myth (taking awhile)
[05:57] <dhruv> which acount are u looking to configure
[05:57] <Rizzla> dhruv, it is, i've installed it from there a couple times.  I'm just having a problem using my old profile that had all my emails from my windows partition
[05:57] <dhruv> u cant use automatix and synaptic simulaneously either
[05:58] <nox-Hand> If I want to install      * ffmpeg  0.cvs20060823-3.1ubuntu4+medibuntu2 but a newer one is in apt fmo archives.ubuntu.com
[05:58] <Rizzla> dhruv, would you be able to step me through the process of downloading thunderbird from mozilla's site and installing it?
[05:58] <nox-Hand> How do I make it install that version? The olde3r one
[05:58] <Rizzla> i tried it once, but i didnt knowhow to install it properly
[05:58] <dhruv> ok will do
[05:58] <RobDaGlob>  /join ##C
[05:58] <RobDaGlob> lol
[05:58] <oliver_g_> jroes: booting from usb stick can be tricky on some hardware
[05:58] <dhruv> dont need to go the mozilla site , synaptic shud be enuf
[05:59] <kane77> Rizzla, why don't you download thunderbird from apt-get?
[05:59] <jroes> oliver_g_: I wish there was a way to see some output so I even had some sort of error to reference
[05:59] <Rizzla> ok, but its kind of for personal knowledge. I love synaptic because its easy, but I have no clue to how install stuff in ubuntu without it.  I dont like being tied to it exclusively to install stuff
[05:59] <oliver_g_> jroes: i needed to create a small boot partition on my 512 mb stick because the bios wouldn't boot otherwise
[05:59] <jroes> oliver_g_: how did you figure that out?
[05:59] <oliver_g_> jroes: do you get any output at all?
[05:59] <_0xf> Im trying to make partition and its not letting me it says no root file system.   but i have / with 66GB
[05:59] <jroes> not at all
[05:59] <jroes> it just immediately skips into windows
[05:59] <oliver_g_> hmm
[05:59] <dhruv> ah the rizzla i may not be that helul
[05:59] <jroes> I was thinking of disabling everything
[05:59] <Mr-Nilsen> could any one pm me for some tips on how to use samba  ?
[05:59] <jroes> except usb
[05:59] <dhruv> *helpful
[06:00] <HELP09> Im so mad atm
[06:00] <jroes> just to see if it flew by the screen fast
[06:00] <HELP09> I need to format everything
[06:00] <dhruv> i'm the easiest way out guy
[06:00] <oliver_g_> jroes: for troubleshooting, set boot sequence so that usb is tried first, then cdrom, then hdd
[06:00] <Rizzla> its cool, well i'll try it through apt-get, because synaptic is currently tied up with mythtv download
[06:00] <oliver_g_> jroes: ... and then put a boot cd in drive
[06:00] <HealthyElijah> i need help installing flash in opera
[06:00] <_0xf> what the hell. i have / for 66GB
[06:00] <_0xf> why it saying no root file system
[06:00] <Theyain> I removed (by shear stupidity) my system tray.  How do I restor it?
[06:00] <oliver_g_> jroes: so you don't have to wait for windows boot all the time :-)
[06:00] <jroes> oliver_g_: that's what I have right now actually
[06:01] <dhruv> i'm going out for dinner, shud be back in an hour, wudtry to help u then
[06:01] <jroes> hahah yeah windows takes forever, but the livecd is pretty slow too :P
[06:01] <HealthyElijah> http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash  --- which version of flash do i need for opera?
[06:01] <FatMom> anyone got the vsync working with fglrx?
[06:01] <Rizzla> damn, i cant download anythnig via apt-get or synaptic because its already in use.. thats kinda silly.. no multitasking for installs??
[06:01] <oliver_g_> jroes: yes :-) but the ubuntu boot menu gives you time to stop the boot :-D
[06:01] <dhruv> yeah thats true u cant do multitasking
[06:02] <Theyain> So, how do I restore my system tray?
[06:02] <bentob0x> anybody has an advice for a software to access your mobile phone (sonyericsson T610) on ubuntu?
[06:02] <acecase> 0136
[06:02] <oliver_g_> jroes: IIRC there can be some other quirks for usb boot... like, you have to fiddle with the usb keyboard options in bios
[06:02] <acecase> :)
[06:02] <dhruv> theyain rightclick on the panel and add the status bar
[06:03] <Rizzla> dhruv, r u gonna be on in 5 mins or so, i'm just going to config myth real quick (hopefully..)
[06:03] <oliver_g_> its more like voodoo :-/
[06:03] <jroes> oliver_g_: hmm.. but the splash screen usually kills the display so I can't see it
[06:03] <Mr-Nilsen> Could anyone please explain how i can use samba to connect to a windows xp comp ?
[06:03] <kane77> Rizzla, anyways installing thunderbird doesn't take much.. as far as I remember you just untar put anywhere you like.. optionally you also create links in /usr/bin/
[06:03] <jroes> I wish I knew what was actually required to boot from usb
[06:03] <dhruv> rizzla i'm already late
[06:03] <HealthyElijah> anyone?
[06:03] <dhruv> healthy can u come again plz
[06:03] <Theyain> I don't have that optioin
[06:03] <Rizzla> oh, alright, thanks for offering.  Appreciate it.
[06:03] <zylche> Help - mouse no longer working, have to use mouse keys, no idea why, taken mouse and and put back in
[06:03] <oliver_g_> jroes: theoretically it's quite easy :-) but in practice it depends on the bios
[06:03] <zylche> Any ideas?
[06:04] <oliver_g_> jroes: maybe get another (more primitive) boot cd?
[06:04] <Ashbringer> Hello, would anyone know any possible causes for not being able to resolve domain names on one wireless AP but being able to do so on another?
[06:04] <zylche> s/and/out/
[06:04] <_0xf> Can someone help me with partitions. its not letting me install. its saying i gotta format the partitions
[06:04] <ManaPirat> hey guys ;) has anybody here tried 1080p H.264 video playback via a recent ATI Card?
[06:04] <_0xf> but i dont see how
[06:04] <oliver_g_> jroes: or indeed disconnect hdd and cdrom and see what the bios says
[06:04] <flamingn00b> hello
[06:04] <HealthyElijah> dhruv: I need help installing Flash for Opera
[06:04] <HealthyElijah> http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash  --- which version of flash do i need for opera?
[06:04] <Theyain> dhruv: I don't have that ability,  I can't add it.  Trust me I treid
[06:04] <Theyain> tried*
[06:04] <dhruv> ok i am gonna give u a bad idea "automatix"
[06:05] <dhruv> it'l  work
[06:05] <labanux> can we use apt-get with socks proxy?
[06:05] <acecase> I want to create another partition and clone this one before I do a dist-upgrade to testing.
[06:05] <HealthyElijah> i dont know what tar.gz rpm or yum stuff is
[06:05] <kane77> !automatix
[06:05] <ubotu> 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)
[06:05] <dhruv> whats wrong with the panels
[06:05] <labanux> i've already use wget with http proxy, and make some setting in /etc/apt/apt.conf. Then how about socks proy?
[06:05] <ewan2ci> hi there, wonder if someone can help me with a stupidly simple questio
[06:05] <labanux> i've already use wget with http proxy, and make some setting in /etc/apt/apt.conf. Then how about socks proxy?
[06:06] <Rizzla> shit gotta restart, brb
[06:06] <webmaren> i'm using the nvidia proprietary driver but it keeps resetting my resolution every time i boot
[06:06] <Theyain> dhruv:  Nothing is actually wrong with my panels.  Its just not in my "Add To Panel" field.
[06:06] <oliver_g_> instead of automatix, what about easyubuntu?
[06:06] <ewan2ci> new to Ubuntu, trying to get nagios running
[06:06] <dhruv> theyain gime a min t check my panel
[06:06] <acecase> ewan2ci, everyone is working on my stupid question rite now :) j/k
[06:06] <labanux> !proxy
[06:06] <ewan2ci> trying in install libgd2-dev
[06:06] <ubotu> The #ubuntu channel and related channels ban users joining from anonymous gateways like tor/silenceisdefeat/cgi:irc because the abuse:useful ratio is close to infinity:nothing -- project cloaks will let you join, otherwise you should simply not use an anonymizer.

[06:07] <Rizzla> back, that was fast
[06:07] <ewan2ci> apparently there is no istallation candidat?
[06:07] <jroes> oliver_g_: did you use the guides at pendrivelinux.com to set yours up?
[06:07] <webmaren> anybody wanna help me with my video driver problem
[06:07] <jroes> or is there another place I can read
[06:08] <dhruv> if its an ati do an lspci and let us knw what iy is
[06:08] <LjL> oliver_g_: instead of either, why not just use APT? what is it that you need to install?
[06:08] <ChildX> in which directory is the wallpaper Simple Ubuntu???
[06:09] <HealthyElijah> I would please like some help picking a tar,rpm, or yum version of flash to install for Opera and Firefox?
[06:09] <HealthyElijah> How do I get Flash on Ubuntu?
[06:09] <oliver_g_> LjL: dunno :-) I use apt myself but some "easier" tool might be handy for beginners :-)
[06:09] <Ashbringer> !tor
[06:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tor - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:10] <oliver_g_> jroes: i made the usb boot stick after a receipt written by a colleague
[06:10] <_0xf> does ipkungfu work with ubuntu
[06:10] <_0xf> ?
[06:10] <Ashfire908> where can i find a guide to vi
[06:10] <webmaren> dhruv its a nvidia geforce 7100gs
[06:10] <webmaren> im using the proprietary driver but it keeps defaulting to the wrong resolution
[06:10] <LjL> oliver_g_, perhaps, but what i always say is: those beginner *will* have to learn to use APT sooner or later, because that's what Ubuntu is based on. better make it sooner, than make them stitch dubious scripts on their systems. after all, if you enable, say, medibuntu and backports, which is not really too hard to do, what's lacking from APT?
[06:10] <dhruv> webmaren:i dont know nvid may be someels wud help u out
[06:12] <rabbitwee1> hello everyone. is it possible at all to change the date syntax of the clock in feisty fawn? it's displaying as mm/dd/yy, I was wanting to change it do dd/mm/yy
[06:12] <oliver_g_> LjL: I'm not prepared for the discussion :-D but in short I think it's good to have some specialized tools for often-requested tasks (like flash, java...) instead of pointing users to the big tool for all tasks
[06:12] <ChildX> in which directory is the wallpaper Simple Ubuntu???
[06:13] <LjL> oliver_g_: but we point users to the *specific* instructions for the *single* task they want to accomplish. sure, they all involve APT. anyway, the problem with those scripts is that they aren't really very well reviewed by anybody, and are likely to cause more harm than good. easyubuntu is most likely better than automatix, but then again, i don't *know* this for sure.
[06:13] <DM|> whats the command for setting resolution via terminal
[06:13] <Ashbringer> For some reason, whenever I use a certain access point, I cannot connect to anything including the access point. However, most services work if I use them through Tor. What possible causes could this have?
[06:13] <dhruv> childx gimme a min
[06:13] <HYPOCRISY> sup
[06:14] <labanux> how can I use apt-get with SOCKS proxy?
[06:14] <LjL> oliver_g_: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/free-flash
[06:14] <oliver_g_> LjL: oh... I thought easyubuntu is the "official" answer to automatix?!
[06:14] <LjL> labanux: one way, i guess, would be to install tsocks and then run it with it
[06:14] <FatMom> so no one got the vsync working with fglrx?
[06:15] <LjL> oliver_g_: no, it's not really official. it's certainly an answer from people who dislike breaking systems less than the automatix people do.
[06:15] <LjL> i meant, more.
[06:15] <oliver_g_> LjL: agreed, having all that stuff (flash, java...) work out of the box or installed automatically (like codecs) is the best way
[06:15] <LjL> oliver_g_: when that can be done legally, yes.
[06:16] <vampisk> wenas
[06:16] <vampisk> exit!
[06:17] <NemesisD> hi all a few questions, is there some way to x forward wine apps in SSH? also can I just leave them running after i disconnect? I'm trying to start utorrent, add a torrent and start it remotely, but I don't need the window hanging around on this machine
[06:18] <Damjan> Hi, I'am talking from terminal, help me, the went down during installation of some programs, on boot no user cannot log in, from kdm and with startx from virtual terminal, please help
[06:18] <rabbitwee1> any idea how to change date order on the clock? I know it's only minor but..
[06:18] <Damjan> I ment the power went down
[06:18] <oliver_g_> NemesisD: maybe don't use X forwarding, but start the apps in a VNC server?
[06:18] <Sven_vB> hi :)
[06:19] <Ashbringer> For some reason, whenever I use a certain access point, I cannot connect to anything including the access point. However, most services work if I use them through Tor. What possible causes could this have?
[06:19] <xbehave> i have na problem with an encrypted root install!where should i go for help?
[06:19] <Damjan> Hey, help me to log in the users
[06:19] <xbehave> my system decrypted my root but then waits
[06:19] <oliver_g_> NemesisD: the default gnome desktop already has a VNC server ("remote desktop")
[06:20] <Damjan> ok I will commit suicide
[06:20] <oliver_g_> Damjan: so you can login on terminal but not on X?
[06:20] <Damjan> yes
[06:20] <oliver_g_> hmm...
[06:20] <Damjan> the main power went down
[06:20] <gokhan_> i'm going to install easycam2 for my internal webcam on my Toshiba laptop but synaptic also wants to install some additional packages like gcc 3.1 and gcc 3.1base but i already have gcc 4.1 so might installing it affect my system?
[06:20] <oliver_g_> Damjan: can just give some general hints...
[06:20] <oliver_g_> is there enough space left on root disk?
[06:21] <oliver_g_> did fsck find errors on start?
[06:21] <NemesisD> oliver_g_, would that be rsclient or something like that? can i start that via ssh ;) also would it allow me to start up the utorrent app and then just leave it running on that machine once i exit?
[06:21] <gustavonarea> Hello. I have a Toshiba Satellite L35 laptop and sounds is not working with the latest 2 kernels. I have an up-to-date Gutsy and Kopfgeldjaeger @ #ubuntu-devel suggested me to talk about this here.
[06:21] <jamescarr> hey
[06:21] <Damjan> oliver_g, I was installing programs from add/remove program in Ubuntu, sudunly the electricity of all the street went down
[06:21] <NotSure> how can i make it so that the internet activity is on tray icon like in windows?
[06:21] <NotSure> i use gnome
[06:22] <smultron> how do i get keyring to auto-login to my wifi network at boot?
[06:22] <luca> gustavnorea: first thing which audio board do you have?
[06:22] <jamescarr> fn+f7 doesnt work on my laptop like it is supposed to... it doesnt redirect output to any attached monitors
[06:22] <jamescarr> why?
[06:22] <jamescarr> and what can I do to make it work?
[06:22] <NotSure> how can i make it so that the internet activity is on tray icon like in windows?
[06:22] <luca> jamescarr: what laptop do you have?
[06:22] <jamescarr> the other fn keys are mapped correctly out of the box but this one
[06:22] <jamescarr> Sony Vaio
[06:22] <floppyears> hi guys
[06:22] <oliver_g_> NemesisD: if you happen to speak german, there's an introduction to VNC at http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/VNC :-)
[06:22] <floppyears> I have an ubuntu machine running mythtv
[06:22] <jamescarr> I need this working quick... I have a presentation in like 2 hours
[06:22] <NotSure> how can i make it so that the internet activity is on tray icon like in windows (i use GNOME)
[06:22] <luca> jamescarr: check in synaptic, I guess there are some packages specifically for your brand about fn keys
[06:22] <floppyears> sometimes I need to restart gdm
[06:23] <luca> I have a dell so I am not sure
[06:23] <NemesisD> NotSure, give people a few seconds to get to you
[06:23] <floppyears> how can I get a non-root user to run /etc/init.d/gdm restart without having to type in a password ?
[06:23] <NotSure> NemesisD, ok
[06:23] <Damjan> oliver_g, then 2 hours later I turn on my pc, then i tried to log in, in kdm, but the user was loading until a blank and he returned back to welcome screen
[06:23] <NemesisD> oliver_g_, i only speak american ;(
[06:23] <aguitel_> jamescarr: is your sony vaio fan working fine?
[06:23] <luca> NotSure: it should be already with Network-manager
[06:23] <_0xf> how long take to install ubuntu
[06:23] <_0xf> for copying files i think mine is hung up right nnow
[06:23] <luca> about half an hour
[06:24] <jamescarr> I aguitel_ why would you ask that?
[06:24] <_0xf> on the box besdie me
[06:24] <oliver_g_> NemesisD: have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH
[06:24] <Damjan> olive_g, tell what conf or log to give you, or something
[06:24] <desertc> Hello - I am having problems with Launchpad.  I cannot create my personal wiki -- it errors and says I don't have permissions.
[06:24] <aguitel_> jamescarr: because i have problem with my sony vaio pcg-frv35
[06:24] <gustavonarea> luca: It's not my computer and I don't know that. Could you please tell me where I could find that information?
[06:24] <HELP09> Hey guys, does UBCD work if I have the NTLDR is missing error?
[06:24] <oliver_g_> Damjan: what does dh -h say?
[06:25] <Damjan> wait to write
[06:25] <luca> uhm I think a lspci in the konsole *might* give you the information
[06:25] <Damjan> on other tty
[06:25] <jamescarr> mine is PCG-6Q1L
[06:25] <luca> uhm no
[06:25] <oliver_g_> Damjan: and: what happens when you run startx ?
[06:25] <jamescarr> cost me 2 grand, so it better not fail ;)
[06:26] <jamescarr> The extended warranty plan almost cost me as much as an xbox360
[06:26] <Ashbringer> Can anyone help me? When using a certain WAP, I can't connect to anything (including my gateway) except through Tor. I have no idea what might be causing this, though I have had power problems recently and that may be affecting some critical files. If I use other WAP's, things seem to work fine. What might be causing this?
[06:26] <Damjan> oliver_g, it says fonts not found
[06:26] <luca> does someone have problems with Nvidia and dual-core in any case after today's updates?
[06:26] <Damjan> oliver_g, how to scroll lines up in this sirc
[06:27] <oliver_g_> Damjan: uh, no idea...
[06:27] <bascule> pgup?
[06:27] <oliver_g_> Damjan: Ctrl + PageUp ?
[06:27] <jamescarr> all I found on synaptic is an i810 module for "some vaio laptops" for switching the display... however my laptop has integrated nvidia card, not that crappy i810 ;)
[06:27] <Damjan> oliver_g, oh great the monitor is magnetized
[06:27] <gustavonarea> luca: here's the output http://rafb.net/p/n6kUtP31.html . I think it's: ATI Technologies Inc SB450 HDA Audio (rev 01)
[06:27] <Damjan> oliver_g, I tried that
[06:27] <_0xf> i swear its hung at 49% copying files
[06:27] <Damjan> oliver_g, no use cause the program is erasing the lines
[06:27] <NotSure> luca, which such network manager? I would highly appreciate it if you could specify the exact sequence of actions I need to take.
[06:28] <_0xf> 2wice in a row
[06:28] <Damjan> oliver_g, now tell me else what can I do
[06:28] <oliver_g_> Damjan: ok moment
[06:28] <aguitel_> jamescarr: my video card is ATI radeon
[06:28] <colin_> simple question - is there a good way to routinely type em-dash in OpenOffice without summoning it from insert-special-character all the time? Ta
[06:28] <Damjan> oliver_g, what was that command again, please?
[06:28] <oliver_g_> Damjan: df -h
[06:28] <Damjan> ok
[06:29] <luca> gustavnorea: you are right. I do not know if there is a specific driver for this board though :(
[06:29] <oliver_g_> Damjan: should give you the disk usage
[06:29] <luca> try googling a bit I guess
[06:29] <Damjan> I see partitions
[06:29] <dhruv> aguitel_ pleasse do an lspci grep|ati
[06:29] <Ashbringer> Can anyone help me with this? On one of my WAP's I can't connect to anything except through TOR for some reason, and I have no idea why. I think the problem might be DNS related, but I'm fairly sure its local, because the WAP itself can resolve the hosts that won't work for me. What might be causing this?
[06:29] <oliver_g_> Damjan: is there any partitionm with 0% free?
[06:29] <aguitel_> dhruv: i have not with my laptop now
[06:29] <sixdraw> anybody use efax here???
[06:29] <luca> NotSure: just do alt+f2 nm-applet
[06:29] <Damjan> oliver_g, from 80 gb, I have 90% free
[06:29] <NotSure> luca, ok wait
[06:29] <oliver_g_> Damjan: ok
[06:30] <_0xf> yeah my ubuntu install keeps freezing up at 49% installing
[06:30] <oliver_g_> Damjan: try running apt-get update
[06:30] <_0xf> 2wice in a row
[06:30] <sixdraw> Oxf ur disc corupted
[06:30] <dhruv> aguitel_ which type of lappy is it
[06:30] <_0xf> whats that mean
[06:30] <_0xf> i gotta redownload
[06:30] <_0xf> or reburn
[06:30] <sixdraw> might have a scratch
[06:30] <dodina> join #ubuntu-it
[06:30] <_0xf> no
[06:30] <_0xf> brand new
[06:30] <sixdraw> is it from ubuntu
[06:30] <_0xf> no
[06:31] <gustavonarea> luca: sound was working flawlessly before installing the latest two kernels. I can actually boot with the first kernel and sound works.
[06:31] <_0xf> i downloaded and burned
[06:31] <_0xf> .dvd.iso
[06:31] <sixdraw> i had that prob then just ordered one from them
[06:31] <HealthyElijah> why is Flash on Linux and Firefux worse than on XP?
[06:31] <NotSure> luca, this is not the kind of tray icon i am talking about. In Windows, you have an indicator of the actual activity. In other words, whenever there is an download or an upload of data, either one of the two computers will be lit. I need 'something' like that, does not have to be exact same thing. Thanks.
[06:31] <_0xf> urs froze at 49%?
[06:31] <Damjan1> oliver_g, my connection went down
[06:31] <punzada> I don't have any problems with flash, although people with 64bit have issues.
[06:32] <HealthyElijah> Not sure - I know what you are talking about and I want it too!
[06:32] <sixdraw> what brand is the disc
[06:32] <luca> NotSure: can't help you then sorry
[06:32] <_0xf> anyone help me FRZZING on install
[06:32] <luca> NotSure: in kde there is kget
[06:32] <sixdraw> well not at 49%
[06:32] <NotSure> kget?
[06:32] <Damjan1> oliver_g, are you there
[06:32] <coolzero> re
[06:32] <sixdraw> that where its corrupted
[06:32] <NotSure> luca, what is kget?
[06:32] <sixdraw> burn to a new disc
[06:32] <oliver_g_> Damjan: ok
[06:32] <_0xf> u think its the disk
[06:32] <gustavonarea> luca: ok, thanks anyways!
[06:32] <_0xf> or the .iso
[06:32] <xbehave> i have na problem with an encrypted root install!where should i go for help?
[06:32] <HealthyElijah> NotSure: Ask in #linux as well
[06:32] <luca> NotSure a download manager
[06:32] <Damjan1> oliver_g, what to do next
[06:32] <sixdraw> well its goes 1/2 way
[06:33] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: try apt-get update
[06:33] <sixdraw> so its the disc
[06:33] <_0xf> ok
[06:33] <HealthyElijah> Flash sucks on Linux. WHY?
[06:33] <_0xf> will reburn
[06:33] <sixdraw> shud fit on a cd
[06:33] <NotSure> ok, I need an indicator of Internet activity (download/upload) on tray icon in gnome. Anybody has any ideas?
[06:33] <_0xf> a dvd
[06:33] <jamescarr> how can I tell if I am even using my dual core processor correctly?
[06:33] <_0xf> 3.4 gigs
[06:33] <sixdraw> u usin a dvd
[06:33] <luca> HealthyElijah: install gnash
[06:33] <luca> flash sucks, but gnash rocks :)
[06:33] <dhruv> notsure gdesklets
[06:33] <Damjan1> oliver_g, come on, I have to finnish making a java program
[06:33] <sixdraw> ya shud be fine sometimes they dont work if the discs are cheap
[06:34] <_0xf> ubuntu-6.10-dvd-i386
[06:34] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: heh
[06:34] <NotSure> gdesklets?
[06:34] <linuxmonger> What is this gnash??
[06:34] <dhruv> yeah
[06:34] <NotSure> gdesklets?
[06:34] <Damjan1> flash oppener
[06:34] <oliver_g_> Damjan: did apt-get update work?
[06:34] <Bauldrick_> whats wrong with flash?
[06:34] <Damjan1> yes
[06:34] <oliver_g_> Damjan: then start aptitude
[06:34] <dhruv> NotSure use gdesklets
[06:34] <Damjan1> oliver_g, wait
[06:34] <NotSure> how?
[06:34] <luca> Bauldrick_ it is closed, badly supported, with bugs which wait correction since a long time
[06:34] <sixdraw> get a reputable brand disc and it will work
[06:34] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: then type /
[06:34] <NotSure> dhruv, how do I get them and how do I use them?
[06:34] <luca> gnash is open and does a good job right now :)
[06:34] <colin_> Question about OpenOffice. Is there a good way to routinely type em-dash in OpenOffice without summoning it from insert-special-character all the time? Is assigning a macro an option or is there something simpler?
[06:34] <dhruv> synaptic shud have it
[06:34] <Damjan1> oliver_g, what it does, again
[06:35] <recon> I changed to international (with dead keys) keyboard layout: which is the dead key?
[06:35] <recon> never mind.
[06:35] <luca> bye
[06:35] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: aptitude is a frontend for the package manager
[06:35] <SmoothOp> tv.gotfrag.com
[06:35] <Damjan1> oliver_g, what to do with package manager
[06:35] <dhruv> gimme 10 mins need to have dinner
[06:35] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: reinstall the font packages
[06:35] <FarInDepth> hey guys I've got quite a perdicament here...maybe someone can help me...
[06:35] <HealthyElijah> luca: DO i need to unninstall aodbe flash 9 then?
[06:35] <FarInDepth> I was running ubuntu just fine, but i wanted to reboot...
[06:35] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: that's just an idea, that it might help...
[06:35] <Damjan1> oliver_g, ok, but where it is
[06:36] <oliver_g_> just execute "aptitude" on terminal
[06:36] <FarInDepth> There are NO other hard drives connected...but when I turn my computer on, I get Error 17 on the grub loader, and it says "Partition cannot be mounted"
[06:36] <Damjan1> oliver_g, i did
[06:36] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: ok
[06:36] <SmoothOp> someone told me that ubuntu wasn't very open source
[06:36] <FarInDepth> I've unplugged the computer from the wall and waited and tried again, but still nothing...any ideas?
[06:36] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: then type /
[06:36] <SmoothOp> and it just seemed odd to me
[06:36] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: and in the search box, type xfonts
[06:36] <Damjan1> oliver_g, to search what
[06:36] <SmoothOp> because shuoldnt you be able to get all the source code for everyrthing
[06:37] <ratpoison> !enter
[06:37] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:37] <Damjan1> test
[06:38] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: you can cycle through all found packages with the "n" key
[06:38] <Damjan1> oliver_g, then
[06:38] <grjemo> ubotu: crc error
[06:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about crc error - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:38] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: then go on all xfonts- packages which have an "i" in front, and press "L"
[06:38] <Damjan1> oliver_g, i will try my x again
[06:38] <darkchr0n0s> ok, i have connected a 320GB hard disk with USB... how do i partition it ?
[06:39] <darkchr0n0s> anyone ?
[06:39] <dhruv> crc: cyclic redundancy check
[06:39] <vistakiller> gparted?
[06:39] <dhruv> cd is faulty or head is not clean
[06:39] <FarInDepth> Okay, so one more time: I had ubuntu running just fine about 15 minutes ago (7.04, Feisty Fawn). I rebooted just for normal reasons, but when the GRUB went to load up the Ubuntu partition, it said Error 17: Parition cannot be mounted. That's all I get...I've tried everything...there are no other hard drives connected, either. ANy ideas?
[06:39] <ratpoison> SmoothOp: www.distrowatch.com and check under major distributions. I think the only thing NOT open in ubuntu is launchpad, which is the system it uses to track bugs. If you want a strictly open version of ubuntu google gnewsense
[06:39] <NotSure> dhruv, i got the desklets, how do I make it look like in windows?
[06:39] <zylche> Using Gnome's Accessibility - mouse keys - I can not find out how to change with button I am pushing with 5
[06:40] <vistakiller> supergrub recover live cd
[06:40] <wad> I'm trying out ubuntu for the first time. I downloaded the install CD, and booted it. I double-clicked the INSTALL icon. Then I double-clicked ENGLISH. So far so good. Now I'm stuck. I've selected the time zone, but there is no NEXT button. Perhaps it's off the bottom of the screen. I can't resize the application window. Is there supposed to be a NEXT button down there somewhere?
[06:40] <dhruv> NotSure what do u wanna do
[06:40] <dhruv> i think u can make it look better than windows
[06:40] <NotSure> dhruv, i want to have indicators of net activity (upload/download) on the taskbar in the form of an icon
[06:40] <darkchr0n0s> ok, i have connected a 320GB hard disk with USB... how do i partition it ?

[06:44] <ubuntuuser123> I have a PROBLEM.Please help me! A .run / .x86 file tells me : No Application Suitable for automatic installation is availible for this file.
[06:44] <wad> I may as well install it with the video card I will have in it.
[06:44] <Damjan1> oliver_g, is there a function to check each package for coruption
[06:44] <dhruv> NotSure: now chose any 1 from the right hand side
[06:44] <naknomik> I am trying to use sitecopy to synchronize FTP server with local files, however the FTP server doesn't support absolute paths for creating directories or files, so the ftp client MUST use a cwd command before creating a file. That's why sitecopy is failing. Is there a way around this? Is there any other tool available?
[06:44] <ratpoison> which one are you planning to use?
[06:45] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: don't know any app for that
[06:45] <NotSure> dhruv, yeah? ok i did! so I see the indicators, but on the taskbar
[06:45] <NotSure> dhruv, not on the taskbar
[06:45] <Damjan1> oliver_g, now how to fix it
[06:45] <dhruv> notsure, rigt click on the taskbar
[06:45] <dhruv> Add to Panel
[06:45] <NotSure> dhruv, ok
[06:45] <NemesisD> oliver_g_, thanks for your help!
[06:45] <Damjan1> oliver_g, services log
[06:45] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: ?
[06:45] <bmt2> hello to all
[06:45] <dhruv> NotSure, are u looking for the windows type network connection indicator
[06:46] <Damjan1> oliver_g, I need to see the services log
[06:46] <NotSure> dhruv, basically yes, it does not have to be exact same thing
[06:46] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: you can try less ~/.xsession-errors
[06:46] <Damjan1> oliver_g, like the daeon
[06:46] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: for what service?
[06:46] <dhruv> NotSure, thats there
[06:46] <bmt2> question.....has anyone on here used GIMP ....and do you feel that GIMP is just as good as what Photoshop can offer ?
[06:46] <dhruv> NotSure, Add to panel
[06:46] <naknomik> Is there any other tool similar to sitecopy?
[06:47] <Dr_willis> naknomik,  what does that tool do?
[06:47] <naknomik> Dr_Willis: sync local files with FTP server.
[06:47] <dhruv> NotSure, right click on the panel and Add to Panel
[06:47] <Dr_willis> bmt2,  i only use gimp.. since i cant afford  phootoshop. :)
[06:47] <NotSure> dhruv, ok i see what you mean
[06:48] <NotSure> dhruv, i did not see it before
[06:48] <Dr_willis> naknomik,  i belive theres a lot of  syncing tools out. but never used any other then the moast basic ines.
[06:48] <bmt2> Dr_willis: i like to create banners, and wallpapers using photoshop....is gimp just as good ?
[06:48] <Damjan1> oliver_g, it is on cyliric ,but virtual terminal don't support utf8 I think
[06:48] <dhruv> NotSure, did u get what u wanted
[06:48] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: that's bad
[06:48] <dedi> how can i remove all packages except the ones that are dependand on ubuntu-desktop?
[06:48] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: what log are you looking at?
[06:48] <Dr_willis> bmt2,  for that stuff.. I would imagine it is. Seems its when you get into the High-end magazine-photo features that people say gimp is lacking.
[06:48] <Dr_willis> bmt2,  i just mainly use it to make Icons. :)
[06:49] <NotSure> dhruv, I have a strange feeling that this indicator does not adequately represent the download and upload because both monitors flash simultaneously any time I look at the icon, this is strange
[06:49] <recon> Does anything really bad happen if you do an " ls `yes` "?
[06:49] <LM1> got a weird problem,  I dual boot (2 separate hard drives)  both windows xp and feisty are set to EST on the clocks yet when I boot back to ubuntu my clock is always 3 hours behind windows... how can I fix this?
[06:49] <dhruv> notSure, double click on it
[06:49] <bmt2> Dr_willis: so i assume that for a photoshop clone...GIMP is all that is available for linux ?
[06:49] <Damjan1> oliver_g, it says something is not found, but what I couldnt decoded it
[06:49] <NotSure> dhruv, ok
[06:49] <Dr_willis> LM1,  windows may be setting the bios clock som ehow.
[06:49] <ratpoison> LM1: did you check the BIOS clock?
[06:49] <ratpoison> check your timezone on the bios
[06:49] <dhruv> notSure, what comes up in the name col/
[06:49] <Dr_willis> bmt2,   there may be some othe rimage tools out.. dependiong on your needs.
[06:50] <Lifeisfunny> I've got my rythmbox and exaile installed, does some one know how to get to the page at itunes.com that lets you D/L the free songs they offer at Starbucks.   on the notecard they give out at Starbucks the instructions says "Open iTunes and click iTunes store." and then next step it says "Click redeem."  Final step I have to do is enter a code for the free song file.
[06:50] <bmt2> Dr_willis: thanks
[06:50] <Dr_willis> bmt2,  gimp is worth learning  :) its even out for windows.
[06:50] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: what log file is that??
[06:50] <LM1> checked bios no timezone,
[06:50] <LM1> if I set the correct time in the bios its three hours off in ubuntu
[06:50] <dhruv> notsure, the name gotta be something similar to eth0
[06:50] <NotSure> dhruv, ok i see now what you mean, let me browse though the internet to see whether each monitor actually represents the download and upload, just wait
[06:50] <KevlarSoul> The swap partition is what exactly?
[06:50] <Damjan1> oliver_g, xsession
[06:50] <_0xf> if my installer is freezing up at 49% everytime is the .iso screwed or just the disk.   i only have one dvd left so i dont wanna waist it
[06:51] <dhruv> notsure, itz just like the thing on win
[06:51] <Dr_willis> LM1,  thats a clue right there. :) I recall this issue when one os thinks the bios clock is set to GMT (UTC?) and the other OS thinks the bios clock is set to LOCAL time.
[06:51] <usser> KevlarSoul: swap is for temporary files that dont fit into memory
[06:51] <KevlarSoul> ahhh..........thanks usser
[06:51] <LM1> weird
[06:51] <KevlarSoul> o/ o/
[06:51] <LM1> thanks
[06:51] <Damjan1> oliver_g, command for viewing the started services
[06:51] <NotSure> dhruv, what is the red and the purple arrow stand for (the ones on the icon)?
[06:51] <Bosambo> Greetings people
[06:51] <Dr_willis> LM1,  i forget the propler way to fix it however. :) both os's need to be agreeing on the right  way the BIOS clock is set.
[06:51] <ratpoison> KevlarSoul: it should be abount 2 times your ram, but you don't really need more than 2 gb
[06:51] <_0xf> if my installer is freezing up at 49% everytime is the .iso screwed or just the disk.   i only have one dvd left so i dont wanna waist it
[06:52] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: ps -Af lists all running apps
[06:52] <dhruv> notsure, red and purple arrow?
[06:52] <ratpoison> _Oxf: did you try md5sum?
[06:52] <Damjan1> oliver_g, is it control +alt + F10 for viewing the something started, cause now i see only carret
[06:52] <usser> KevlarSoul: that is if u dont want hibernate feature, if u do swap has to be at least the size of ram
[06:52] <_0xf> no i didnt
[06:52] <w0ss> im having touble mounting my windows drive (xp install, ntfs) using the live cd of ubuntu, theyre both sata drives, I need to know which is which so i don't install over my windows drive - anyone have any suggestions?
[06:53] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: what are you trying to do? :-)
[06:53] <NotSure> dhruv, yes, there is something like an arrow and it changes shape and color
[06:53] <_0xf> how
[06:53] <NotSure> dhruv, but anytime i look at the icon, both monitors are lit
[06:53] <dhruv> notsure, Add to Panel>Network Monitor right
[06:53] <NotSure> dhruv, yes
[06:53] <Damjan1> oliver_g, If I can see the errors log of the services, I can fix it
[06:53] <usser> w0ss: i usually mount them one by one and look what files are there and that way i tell which partition is which
[06:53] <NotSure> dhruv, look at the indicator
[06:53] <dhruv> notsure, ok may be because of a theme u r using, what is the name
[06:54] <ratpoison> _Oxf: just a sec

[06:55] <usser> ))
[06:55] <Damjan1> nope
[06:55] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: not sure... you can of course do a complete reinstall...
[06:55] <Damjan1> It is cool
[06:55] <usser> etzerd: /j opensuse
[06:55] <MrPink> Kurupt you have to edit the grub.list  in /boot/ I think
[06:55] <Lifeisfunny> etzerd, might be a good question for the Ubuntu_offtopic channel
[06:55] <ratpoison> _Oxf: open a terminal cd /path/to/iso ; md5sum filename (i think)
[06:55] <MrPink> Kurupt there you can decide what is shown in the Boot menu
[06:55] <etzerd> LOL :) why you say that usser?
[06:55] <_0xf> im
[06:55] <_0xf> on windows
[06:55] <_0xf> laptop
[06:55] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: repairing should be possible, but maybe difficult
[06:56] <Bosambo> No...nobody?
[06:56] <_0xf> the ubuntu box beside me
[06:56] <Damjan1> oliver_g, never, I spend 3 gb transfer for my packages
[06:56] <usser> etzerd: jk, its an ubuntu channel, so we dont talk about it here
[06:56] <ratpoison> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Md5sum#Unix.2FLinux read the windows section
[06:56] <usser> etzerd: join #suse
[06:56] <Damjan1> oliver_g, tell me the hard way
[06:56] <dhruv> notsure, make sure hat the name is not l0
[06:56] <w0ss> usser: any suggestons?
[06:56] <etzerd> sorry all
[06:56] <MrPink> anyone here good with html / css ?
[06:56] <The_Entropy> hi everyone
[06:56] <Kurupt> thanks MrPink i'm gonna check it out
[06:56] <usser> etzerd: personally i find suse annoying, yast is a steaming pile of crap
[06:56] <MrPink> kurrupt no problem
[06:56] <Lifeisfunny> etzerd, yeah, join suse and get their unbiased opinion
[06:57] <petterah> MrPink, not good, but I know my way around....
[06:57] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: I don't really _know_ the way :-) I would just look at all X server logs and so on and see what errors it gives
[06:57] <Bosambo> Anyone know how to diagnose problems in Totem? DVD playback was flawless until an update this morning. It now tells me I don't have the appropriate plugins although I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything I used to get it up and running in the first place
[06:57] <etzerd> the reason that I ask because I heard lot of people said their new release is a joke.
[06:57] <murlidhar> w0ss: perhaps u can get to know by seeing in the gparted which is windows partition since u have only two disks
[06:57] <NotSure> dhruv, thanks for your help, i am going to figure out if this is adequate Internet activity indicator
[06:57] <MrPink> petterah do you know if it is possible to give a <div> tag more than one ID ?
[06:57] <usser> w0ss: well mount partitions one by one to somewhere and if u see windows system folder Program files etc thats your windows partition
[06:57] <Damjan1> oliver_g, the daemon log says unable to connect to clusterinfrastructure
[06:57] <MrPink> petterah and if yes, how? :-D
[06:57] <dhruv> notsure, bye
[06:57] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: which log file says that?
[06:57] <The_Entropy> I have a laptop with 2 network interfaces(one for the wireless and one for wired connections) I want to connect to 2 different networks(1 with each)
[06:57] <darkchr0n0s> how do i create partitions in hard disk.. cannot figure this mkfs.ext3 command out !!
[06:57] <murlidhar> w0ss: the one which has a option to unmount or mount is windows drive
[06:57] <Damjan1> oliver_g, daemon_log
[06:57] <w0ss> murlidhar, i can see both in gparted, however they are both identical drives - there is nothing i can use in there to telll them apart.. if i could just mount even one of them properly i could tell
[06:58] <petterah> MrPink, you could give it a id, and a class
[06:58] <Damjan1> oliver_g, daemon.log
[06:58] <JamoSmith> I want to 'try out' ubuntu but at the same time I play windows only games (WoW). I don't want to do a dual boot, but instead install ubuntu on another machine and remote into it to use firefox/open office/gimp. What options and keywords can I research to achieve this goal?
[06:58] <The_Entropy> however, with the network manager I get disconnected from one when I try to connect to the other
[06:58] <w0ss> ok will look again
[06:58] <The_Entropy> JamoSmith, WoW works under wine
[06:58] <MrPink> petterah and what does that do ? What is a class or what is the difference to an ID ?
[06:58] <darkchr0n0s> petterah : how do i create partitions in hard disk.. cannot figure this mkfs.ext3 command out !!
[06:58] <Zorlin> Jamo: Try TightVNC or RealVNC...

[06:59] <petterah> MrPink, you could give e. g. a menu a id of menu, and a class of topmenu, or sidemenu
[06:59] <murlidhar> w0ss: also sometimes when using gparted it automounts
[06:59] <MrPink> rowie75 #ubuntu-de ;)
[06:59] <Damjan1> oliver_g, find in google for sirc, function for beeping when somebody talks to you, please
[06:59] <minuoh> hi, is there a way safely downgrade to feisty? in gutsy my wireless stopped working and resume from suspend crashes all the time...
[06:59] <rowie75> ok
[06:59] <rowie75> thanks  :-)
[06:59] <usser> etzerd: nope the beta is there though
[06:59] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: what exactly does that error line say? And do you have any kind of cluster? :-)
[06:59] <MrPink> kein problem :-P
[06:59] <Damjan1> oliver_g, wait
[06:59] <dhruv> etzred, u also gotta ake sure that win firewall isn't blocking the vnc
[06:59] <Damjan1> oliver_g, there is more errrors
[06:59] <petterah> darkchr0n0s, partitions with cfdisk, format with mkfs.ext3 :)
[06:59] <dhruv> i heard vnc
[06:59] <w0ss> murlidhar, both are exactly the same  in gparted, both with unallocated space
[06:59] <dhruv> any1 need vnc help
[06:59] <pbx> Is there a separate Gutsy channel?
[07:00] <w0ss> no option to mount either :/
[07:00] <dhruv> or remotedesktop help
[07:00] <oliver_g_> Damjan1: is there a program name mentioned?
[07:00] <usser> pbx: #ubuntu+1
[07:00] <pbx> usser: thanks!
[07:00] <MrPink> Petterah hm the problem is I have to ID's and one is predefined by a image-script I am using
[07:00] <MrPink> *two ID's
[07:00] <etzerd> when the new ubuntu 7.10 will be release/
[07:01] <petterah> MrPink, why do you need the second one? to style? use class :)
[07:01] <The_Entropy> Is there a way of connecting to 2 different networks at once?(using 2 different interfaces)
[07:01] <stdin> !gutsy | etzerd
[07:01] <ubotu> etzerd: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[07:01] <Damjan2> oliver_g, I pushed control+z, cause my small finger was touching z all the time
[07:01] <petterah> the usage is    <div class="myClass"></div> and for separate style sheet use div.myClass, or just .myClass
[07:01] <JamoSmith> The_Entropy "wow works under wine" can I hold you to that :P I'm going to take this one setp at a time :)
[07:01] <petterah> oh sorry, MrPink the usage is    <div class="myClass"></div> and for separate style sheet use div.myClass, or just .myClass
[07:02] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: if you do so much stuff on console, maybe you should try the "screen" app :-)
[07:02] <murlidhar> w0ss: in my machine nautilus shows my windowsxp partition as media/disk
[07:02] <_0xf> just dual boot
[07:02] <_0xf> dont play in wine
[07:02] <The_Entropy> JamoSmith, well, I haven't tried it yet, but they gave it a rating of "gold" in their appdb(which means it runs perfect after some tweaking)
[07:02] <JamoSmith> Zorlin: which one tightVNC or RealVNC will let me login to the machine, use applications w/out having to log into the machine before hand
[07:02] <DM|> Anyone here use 1680x1050 resolution?
[07:02] <The_Entropy> JamoSmith, I intend to try it soon
[07:02] <MrPink> petterah thanks I'll try it with class... but its all kind of messed up ^^ Thanks anyway ;)
[07:02] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: btw. with ctrl+z you just put the app into background... type "fg" to get it back
[07:02] <JamoSmith> The_Entropy: thanks, I'll definately give it, is it legal to do so?
[07:02] <Damjan2> oliver_g, and what to do in screen
[07:03] <Coded1> can anyone share their experiences with sat HD on linux, anyone have it actually working?
[07:03] <The_Entropy> JamoSmith, why would it be illegal to use wine?
[07:03] <petterah> MrPink, no problemo :D
[07:03] <JamoSmith> The_Entropy: just asking
[07:03] <Damjan2> oliver_g, that explains way I couldnt log in irc with damjan1 or damjan
[07:03] <murlidhar> w0ss: else log onto windows and determine the disks and moreover u can figure it out by the amount of data filled in the hard disks
[07:03] <petterah> what to eat... burger, or pizza?
[07:03] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: heh
[07:04] <Damjan2> oliver_g, I thouth that ctrl +z or ctrl + c is terminate
[07:04] <LjL> !downgrade | minuoh
[07:04] <ubotu> minuoh: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[07:04] <The_Entropy> JamoSmith, http://www.winehq.org/ you decide for yourself :)
[07:04] <DM|> Anyone here use 1680x1050 resolution?
[07:04] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: ctrl+c is terminate
[07:04] <petterah> DM| I have on my laptop
[07:04] <Damjan2> oliver_g, what to do in screen
[07:04] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: ctrl+z is suspend - the app is put into background
[07:04] <DM|> petterah do you have access to its xorg file?
[07:04] <Damjan2> oliver_g, how to work in it
[07:05] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: in screen, you can have many terminals at once
[07:05] <usser> Damjan2: ctrl+z suspengs fg brings it back
[07:05] <petterah> DM| yeah, but I don't use hardcoded reso's anymore, the driver figures it out :)
[07:05] <petterah> DM|, no modeline either :) sorry
[07:05] <DM|> petterah thats what i need, can you pastebin it for me?
[07:05] <petterah> DM| what do you need?
[07:05] <savetheWorld> !terminal
[07:05] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[07:05] <DM|> petterah ah, modelines hehe
[07:06] <w0ss> murlidhar, one is empty, one is full - I want to avoiding writing over the data on the full drive when i install ubuntu, but i have no means of seeing which is which - they just appear to be identical, and i cannot take the hdd out as its a laptop :/
[07:06] <DM|> petterah recent update in gutsy ruined my resolu
[07:06] <petterah> DM| hehe, sorry, don't use modelines, BUT.... try google, I found a usable modeline for my 1920x1200 desktop lcd :)
[07:06] <ihavenoname>  :)
[07:06] <petterah> dm| oh no!! :(
[07:06] <ratpoison> guys: what's the difference between xterm and gnome-terminal?
[07:06] <_0xf> is it possible to encrypt ur whole 80GB harddisk with truecrypt and just boot from ubuntu live
[07:06] <Damjan2> oliver_g, screen says there is screen on tty3
[07:07] <navets> help: how do I burn a cd iso on a dvd? is it even possible?
[07:07] <pbx> How do I make the default terminal (before X launches) bigger?  I asked earlier but the suggested googling didn't pan out.
[07:07] <usser> nav`
[07:07] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: then run screen -r
[07:07] <petterah> DM|, thats sucks.. but are you sure you need modelines? tried to upgrade the gfx driver?
[07:07] <usser> navets: i dont think it is
[07:07] <Damjan2> oliver_g, i did
[07:07] <Damjan2> oliver_g, it told me that
[07:07] <DM|> petterah this is with the new gfx :(
[07:07] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: for easier use of screen, create the file ~/.screenrc and put this line in:
[07:07] <ratpoison> navets: i think you can do it on the "other OS" with alcohol 120%. not sure though
[07:07] <oliver_g_> caption always "%{Wb}%l %{W.}|%{-} %-w%?%F%{=b Wb}%:%{= wb}%?%010>%n %t%{-}%+w %-07=%{W.}|%{-}%{Wb} %c"
[07:07] <Damjan2> oliver_g, can you connect to my pc
[07:07] <neumind> how on ubuntu look free hard  disk space?
[07:07] <bluebanana> hi. i need a wireless (ethernet/internet) card for a desktop computer. is http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=24255&vpn=WL-138G-V2&manufacture=ASUS something that will work in desktops?
[07:07] <neumind> how on ubuntu look free hard  disk space?
[07:08] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: I doubt that
[07:08] <Damjan2> oliver_g, will you
[07:08] <ratpoison> how about checking if alcohol works with wine
[07:08] <murlidhar> w0ss: u did not get my point by going to windows u can determine it my right-clicking on my computer and selecting manage . it will tell u which is the first disk and which is the second
[07:08] <petterah> ratpoison, xterm is small binary, included with Xorg, gnome-terminal is included in the gnome "distro"... not sure if xterm supports utf-8 ...
[07:08] <The_Entropy> navets, from the terminal or from the GUI?
[07:08] <soundray> neumind: df -h
[07:08] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: do you have ssh access?
[07:08] <navets> ratpoison: humm looks like you can do it with kubuntu's K3B burne
[07:08] <Damjan2> oliver_g, I'm ze root
[07:08] <navets> The_Entropy: either
[07:08] <The_Entropy> navets, for terminal use cdrecord
[07:08] <ratpoison> navets: I was just checking that :)
[07:08] <DM|> petterah oh well just wait for an update i guess
[07:08] <DM|> petterah thanks
[07:09] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: well if you tell me IP and user/pw I can try to connect...
[07:09] <mar_> mar
[07:09] <mar_> h
[07:09] <Damjan2> oliver_g, wait
[07:09] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: ... if you really want to do that...
[07:09] <w0ss> murlidhar, are you certain this will carry over when i boot from the live cd
[07:09] <navets> The_Entropy: and GUI ?
[07:09] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: maybe better send that in a private message
[07:09] <Damjan2> oliver_g, how to see my IP
[07:09] <The_Entropy> navets, if you're using gnome, if you right click on an iso file it should give you the option to "burn to CD"
[07:09] <The_Entropy> or something along those lines
[07:10] <ratpoison> The_Entropy: he wants to write a cd iso on a dvd disk
[07:10] <The_Entropy> oh
[07:10] <MrPink> neumind: df -h   or  df -k
[07:10] <navets> yes
[07:10] <The_Entropy> ratpoison, navets, I misread, sorry

[07:11] <MrPink> Damjan2 ifconfig  in the terminal will give you your IP as well
[07:11] <ratpoison> plus you don't use an external site
[07:11] <murlidhar> w0ss: yes but wait u can also find this through gparted
[07:12] <murlidhar> w0ss: just give me a screenshot of the gparted

[07:26] <wad> Hi, guys. I just installed my first ubuntu system, from the install CD I downloaded. This is 7.04. Question: What's my root password?
[07:26] <_0xf> i tried to E: couldnt find the package namd gnome-network-manager
[07:26] <redico> MrPink => for my 9700 which is in fact the same chip AFAIK  - aptitude did all stuff
[07:26] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: run screen -r
[07:26] <ticked> wad whatever password you put in when you installed
[07:26] <wad> Oh, the same as my user password?
[07:26] <jonah1980> hi my screen locks up on boot and i think it's cos feisty installed the normal nvidia and not the legacy driver. how can i swap this over to legacy without breaking stuff? also i will have to do it from a prompt somewhere if anyone has any suggestions? i'm on another computer now
[07:26] <Damjan2> oliver_g it's new number
[07:27] <MrPink> redico I can't remember what all I did, someone here helped me... and he couldn't figure it out... but its not working right... and aptitude wont do the trick
[07:27] <wad> Nope, that one didn't work. It never asked me for a root password!
[07:27] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: there should be a blue bar at bottom now
[07:27] <Damjan2> oliver_g no bar
[07:27] <soundray> _0xf: sorry, the package is called something different then. Do a 'apt-cache search network manager' to find out the real name. Or follow the advice to use synaptic.
[07:27] <ticked> hmmm i use the password i installed with
[07:27] <wad> Wait, it did when I ran sudo

[07:29] <Snoberizer> hi all
[07:29] <MrPink> redico tahnks though ;)
[07:29] <Damjan2> oliver_g where're u
[07:29] <Snoberizer> I've got a little (stupid) question for you guys
[07:29] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: ?
[07:29] <jonah1980> hello anyone please... i just need to swap to legacy and all should be fine, but i don't want to mess the computer up
[07:29] <soundray> _0xf: it's very un-smart to repeat yourself when you've had a reply already.
[07:29] <Damjan2> oliver_g, now what
[07:29] <warrick> If you install Ubuntu in VirtualBox with a windows host, then try to use it from an Ubuntu host, does it work
[07:30] <MrPink> Snoberizer believe me I am relatively new to linux, there are only very few stupid questions ;)
[07:30] <python> Is there any way to go back and put your computer into the state it was say yesterday?
[07:30] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: I'm looking at log files
[07:30] <redico> MrPink: np ... had much problems too ... yeah - when you install something - at least you have to give the information to the xorg
[07:30] <soundray> python: sure, if you did a backup yesterday
[07:30] <usser> flush: oh i see win98 is no longer supported
[07:30] <drewby> What's the name of a good gui for the firewall
[07:30] <Snoberizer> I've bought myself a new pc. It's an Intel Q6600. Can I install the AMD64 version of Gutsy on that CPU, or does it only work on CPU's made by AMD?
[07:30] <python> Is there any sort of auto backup?
[07:30] <flush> any windows emulation wont work for me anymore

[07:30] <pbx> Anybody using wmii with ubuntu?  It rules so much I'm thinking about starting a new version, called wmiibuntu.

[07:31] <flush> usser yea, "winxp" gives error and wont start it
[07:31] <LjL> WojciechG: dpkg -L sun-java-6 (are you sure that's the right package name, though?)
[07:31] <soundray> python: you can configure automatic backup routines with, for example, sbackup
[07:31] <soundray> !sbackup > python
[07:31] <python> Is it possible to undo a certain command then?
[07:31] <usser> flush: what kind of error?

[07:44] <Dremth> I have Windows XP, Vista, and Ubuntu installed and they've all been working fine, then yesterday I was shutting down my Vista and it was installing some updates, then after the updates everything turned off (monitor, keynoard, mouse, etc.) except for the lights on my computer (like it was still on). My hard drive access light wasn't blinking, but I was still too scared to just turn it off. Eventually, it went off. When I turned my compute
[07:44] <Dremth> r back on, it got to the grub loading stage where it says "loading stage blah blah" and then after "Grub loading please wait" it just simply says "Error 17" I've tried several things... I booted into super grub and I edited my menu.lst so that it doesn't have the vista chainloader as an option, and then I can boot to ubuntu. I'm pretty sure it's not the file system since I can mount every one of my drives in ubuntu and access any file I w
[07:44] <Dremth> ant. It can't be the Windows OS files itself because grub doesn't care about that when it's just displaying a menu. I'm guessing it's the boot record. I can't do a fixmbr, because that would f*** up my grub menu and allow me only to boot to xp/vista (plus i don't have the vista install disk with me right now; only xp install). Can anyone help me?

[07:57] <dormilon> Is there a way to turn IRC system messages off? (so as to receive just the channel users comments) I'm using Gaim v1.5.1cvs
[07:57] <Lhademmo1> !gutsy
[07:57] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[07:57] <PeterPowell> do you still give support for ubuntu on powerpc processors?
[07:57] <INTit> ive installed the jdk and jre but its not using them as the default installation ?
[07:57] <Dremth> If I have XP, and vista, and ubuntu, and I went into the vista install disk and did fixmbr, it would delete grub correct?
[07:57] <n0deal> What would you guys recommend for video card type, ATI or nVidia for Gutsy?  I have a old ATI Radeon 9000 which is a colossal pain to get working... so thinking of breaking down and just getting a new card.
[07:57] <cdm10> dormilon: Wow, that's an OLD version of Gaim.
[07:57] <jeleta> help no sound in savage
[07:58] <cdm10> n0deal: nVidia now, but soon, ATi drivers will be better.
[07:58] <_> 
[07:58] <_> 
[07:58] <Damjan2> Dremth, windows deletes grub
[07:58] <BUDD}{A> in ubuntu there is a short cut thing  called  keyboard shortcuts it set all my keys
[07:58] <jeleta> help no sound in savage
[07:58] <Damjan2> Dremth, cause grub is on hda0
[07:58] <eolo999> a channel to ask for vps renting?
[07:58] <dormilon> cdm10: Sure it is!  I'm old too !! hahahaha!
[07:58] <cdm10> BUDD}{A: Yeah, I realize that, but I don't care about shortcut keys right now... I'm asking about lag.
[07:58] <Damjan2> Dremth, an fixmbr deletes hda0
[07:58] <jeleta> help no sound in savage
[07:58] <ratpoison> n0deal: nvidia has currently better support. BUT amd opened the specs for ati cards and when the drivers are ready, they'll be much better
[07:58] <cdm10> dormilon: Are you using Dapper?
[07:58] <n0deal> cdm10: I have an nvidia card in my laptop running feisty and it runs fantastic
[07:58] <_> from ?
[07:59] <BUDD}{A> weii i get 0 lag with mine
[07:59] <Dremth> So, if i did fixmbr would it only allow me to boot to vista, or would it see that windows xp is there and include that on the mbr?
[07:59] <cdm10> n0deal: Yeah, right now, nVidia is better than ATI for Linux, but in a few years, there'll be open-source ATI drivers that will be much better.
[07:59] <Damjan2> Dremth, if you do that you will use only vista and xp
[07:59] <dormilon> cdm10: I'm not sure.  ubuntu 6.06 LTS
[07:59] <n0deal> I did have my ATI card in my desktop running relatively ok under Feisty but it seems that the old ATI drivers I have to use don't suport the new version of xorg
[07:59] <cdm10> dormilon: Ah, ok.
[08:00] <Damjan2> Dremth, but if you insert live cd and write in terminal install-grub
[08:00] <rhalff> ratpoison, then you can finally get the most out of the ratpoison window manager :p
[08:00] <Dremth> Damjan2, yea.. thats what i was thinking
[08:00] <n0deal> Any versions of nVidia cards I should avoid?  I need a dual head card cause I'm running two monitors
[08:00] <Dremth> Damjan2, so, that should work?
[08:00] <ratpoison> rhalff: I never figured out why it is actually called a window *manager*
[08:00] <Damjan2> Dremth, with the live cd, yes
[08:00] <PeterPowell> im trying to install ubuntu onto my 300mhz g3 powerpc machine with 332mb (roughly) of RAM
[08:01] <Dremth> Damjan2, now i just have to find my vista cd :P
[08:01] <n0deal> I'm also stuck with AGP 4/8x at the moment
[08:01] <PeterPowell> from "ubuntu-7.04-desktop-powerpc.iso"
[08:01] <Dr_willis> PeterPowell,   heh - I need to get Ubuntu on my iMACdv. some day
[08:01] <PeterPowell> it gets to the ubuntu logo with the bar moving from left to right on boot
[08:01] <PeterPowell> but then lags
[08:01] <PeterPowell> and shows 1/2 a page of errors
[08:01] <PeterPowell> :|
[08:01] <Damjan2> Dremth, what is cd :P
[08:01] <PeterPowell> Dr_willis: this is a blue and white power mac g33
[08:02] <Dremth> one last question, will ubuntu burn dvds without having to download a program?
[08:02] <Dr_willis> PeterPowell,  ive not had a lot of luck with linux on the thing. :( i just use OS-X  on it. as a 'ssh terminal' :(
[08:02] <voraistos> hey do you know if anyone is working on the ssl-cert issue ?
[08:02] <PeterPowell> i had a photo of the screen but my windows (chokes) antiviris software seems to think its a virus :|
[08:02] <Damjan2> Dremth, perchaps
[08:02] <voraistos> its a pain, really
[08:02] <Damjan2> Dremth, try
[08:02] <MrPink> Dremth it worked for me ;)
[08:02] <Dremth> cool, thanks
[08:02] <Dremth> bye
[08:02] <Dr_willis> PeterPowell,  i think theres some PPC forums on the ubuntu site. but no idea how well supported PPC stuff is  any more.
[08:02] <Rasalgethi> The 7.10 beta installer hangs just after mounting /target and /target/windows on my computer. Any ideas on stuff I could try to do and/or investigate?
[08:03] <Damjan2> Dremth, I burned cd's, but you can't burn multisession
[08:03] <voraistos> what the ???? is /target ?
[08:03] <Dr_willis> voraistos,  the mount point it is installing to - would be my guess
[08:03] <voraistos> yeah, thats the point
[08:03] <Damjan2> target is root partitio~
[08:03] <rhalff> is it correct that there is no xen kernel source for feisty ? I'm using 2.6.19-4, but I can't find the source, I need it to compile the nvidia driver.
[08:03] <voraistos> i hope he is not  mounting stuff in /dev :P
[08:03] <labanux> anyone know FTP client that support socks proxy?
[08:04] <Dr_willis> voraistos,  after you fdisk the drive to install to.. It MIGHT have  issues dependong on the drives. and need a reboot to see the changes to the disk layout
[08:04] <Damjan2> rhalff install the package> linux image
[08:04] <Dr_willis> voraistos,  i normally leave a part of the HD 'unallocated' and let the partitioner partition it.  then let it install. IF i resize - i always reboot, then restart the installer
[08:04] <n00buntu> hi
[08:04] <n00buntu> i have a noob question.
[08:05] <Damjan2> go on
[08:05] <dn4> Anyone know how to install a .run file?
[08:05] <voraistos> Dr_Willis i really dnt know what this is about. I met many, too many bugs recently, and am thinking about going back to dapper :O
[08:05] <n00buntu> this is going to sound really stupid but...i installed ubuntu using the OEM option
[08:05] <Damjan2> dn4 sh file.run
[08:05] <rhalff> Damjan2, yes but I need the exact source of the xen kernel to compile the nvidia module.
[08:05] <n00buntu> and it didn't ask me for a username/pass
[08:05] <voraistos> user: oem, password, oem
[08:05] <n00buntu> oh
[08:05] <n00buntu> okay
[08:06] <n00buntu> those are the default ones?
[08:06] <voraistos> yep.
[08:06] <voraistos> or maybe there is no password
[08:06] <n00buntu> okay thanks
[08:06] <n00buntu> uh
[08:06] <voraistos> im not sure anymore.
[08:06] <n00buntu> i tried blanks but they didn't work
[08:06] <voraistos> oem as a user is sure though.
[08:06] <n00buntu> just in case...is there any other way i can get around it...or do i need to do a reinstall?
[08:06] <naknomik> Is there any tool similar to sitecopy for syncing local files to ftp server? sitecopy seems to have a bug when creating directories.
[08:06] <Damjan2> rhalff, see the kernel version, and install the same kernel image, and have fun with the compiling
[08:07] <PeterPowell> OEM? 0.o
[08:07] <voraistos> there is a possibility to do anything you want.
[08:08] <voraistos> get another linux box, modify the password file with a hash you know, and directly write that to the hard drive.
[08:08] <_MrPink_> lol @ PeterPowell :-P
[08:08] <rhalff> Damjan2, I didn't realize I could use apt-get source :)
[08:08] <Damjan2> wow 6539 users here
[08:08] <voraistos> you can boot in secure mode as well (root)
[08:08] <n00buntu> okay
[08:08] <n00buntu> thanks man
[08:08] <n00buntu> :))
[08:08] <PeterPowell> soon that number will decrease
[08:08] <n00buntu> noob out
[08:08] <Damjan2> rhalff apt-get install linuximage
[08:08] <SpiffyBalak> does anyone know how to get the Nintendo USB Wi-Fi dongle driver to work with the current Linux kernel?
[08:08] <PeterPowell> when i force my brother to downgrade from teh sh!t os
[08:08] <PeterPowell> :P
[08:09] <PeterPowell> hey
[08:09] <PeterPowell> heres a result
[08:09] <rhalff> Damjan2, why ? apt-get source is downloading the xen-source now, is apt-get install linuximage better ?
[08:09] <PeterPowell> i checked integrity
[08:09] <gerrym> register 1234
[08:09] <PeterPowell> errors found in 1 files
[08:09] <_MrPink_> when you register with the nickserv is there a way to change your pw ?
[08:09] <PeterPowell> /ns help set pass
[08:09] <PeterPowell> i think
[08:09] <voraistos> SpiffyBalak, you could use a keyboard, there is better kernel support for that :D
[08:10] <Damjan2> rhalff, I only now that in order to compile nvidia drivers you need kernel image
[08:10] <rhalff> Damjan2, ah ok
[08:10] <voraistos> pink, yes you can
[08:10] <Damjan2> rhalff, I need to go to the toilet, i will be back
[08:10] <_MrPink_> voraistos how ?
[08:10] <SpiffyBalak> so I'm SOL until the guy updates the driver?
[08:10] <PeterPowell> suppose i better leave this until tomorrow
[08:10] <voraistos> err....
[08:11] <voraistos> there is a way, i just dont know it anymore :P
[08:11] <_MrPink_> hehe
[08:11] <ebirtaid> pink msg nickserv set password
[08:11] <darkchr0n0s> i need help with USB hard drives.. anyone who knows, that how do i same thing as "Safely Remove Hardware" for a USB hard drive in linux
[08:11] <drewby> Hello I am having trouble with gFTP, I get Error: Could not write to socket: Broken Pipe
[08:12] <voraistos> something like that yeah :D
[08:12] <Tomcat_> darkchr0n0s: There should be an icon on your desktop, right click that and eject.
[08:12] <The_Entropy> _MrPink_, you could try dropping the nickname then registering it again
[08:12] <drewby> I am trying to upload a 4mb file to an FTP server, how can I accomplish this?
[08:12] <Zorlin> drew: fix the pipe.
[08:12] <Zorlin> In all seriousness though, that is kind of weird.
[08:12] <Damjan2> rhalff, Iam back
[08:12] <_MrPink_> ok thanks
[08:12] <voraistos> try /msg nickserv passwd
[08:12] <Tomcat_> drewby: Sounds like Internet problems.
[08:12] <voraistos> lol
[08:12] <darkchr0n0s> Tomcat_ : there is no icon
[08:12] <INTit> can any1 help with installing java
[08:12] <Tomcat_> darkchr0n0s: But you can access it?
[08:12] <SpiffyBalak> darkchr0n0s: try typing in a terminal "umount /path/to/the/drive
[08:12] <drewby> Zorlin: A little more specific...?  Should I forward a port, or disable a firewall or what?
[08:13] <darkchr0n0s> Tomcat_ : yes... i have to mount it..
[08:13] <Damjan2> INTit, download java6 packages
[08:13] <Zorlin> erm... drewby, that was a joke.
[08:13] <_MrPink_> The_Entropy I found out how to change the pw ;)
[08:13] <darkchr0n0s> SpiffyBalak : i already umounted it
[08:13] <Zorlin> Sorry if I confused you
[08:13] <Tomcat_> darkchr0n0s: Manually? In that case, just unmount it when you're done.
[08:13] <The_Entropy> _MrPink_, how?
[08:13] <Damjan2> INTit, apt-get install java6
[08:13] <Zorlin> Have you tried a different FTP client?
[08:13] <INTit> I downloaded them both the jre and the jdk executables and installed them
[08:13] <SpiffyBalak> darkchr0n0s: then you should be fine, unless it's still blinking
[08:13] <drewby> Zorlin: Ohh, haha, sorry... sarcasm is lost on me.
[08:13] <darkchr0n0s> SpiffyBalak Tomcat_ , thanks :)
[08:13] <drewby> Zorlin: I don't know any other clients
[08:13] <The_Entropy> Tomcat_, is right-click -> eject any different then unmounting?
[08:13] <_MrPink_> with: msg nickserv set password NEWPASSWORDHERE
[08:13] <INTit> but i cant set them as default java installation
[08:13] <kevinO> INTit: just go to java.com and download
[08:14] <Tomcat_> The_Entropy: Nope.
[08:14] <Zorlin> drewby: Search the Ubuntu Forums, and also try out Filezilla.
[08:14] <heartsblood> What would cause compiz to use a theme from metacity?
[08:14] <sax1johno> try changing the JAVA environment variable.
[08:14] <sax1johno> INITit --
[08:14] <Damjan2> INTit, no istall the packages, if you install the two from run file, you will need to set the path
[08:14] <Zorlin> drewby: Filezilla I *believe* has a Linux version; so see if that can do it for you.
[08:14] <sax1johno> yes, it does.
[08:14] <darkchr0n0s> SpiffyBalak Tomcat_ , 1 more question... after unmounting.. it still shows up in sudo fdisk -l, i guess that;s ok ?
[08:14] <zylche> Is there any way to get the mouse disconnected and refound without restarting X11?
[08:14] <sax1johno> Filezilla works great in Ubuntu.
[08:14] <The_Entropy> Tomcat_, I ask this cuz I've noticed with some USB sticks sometimes the light stays on when you unmount, but it doesnt when you eject
[08:14] <Tomcat_> darkchr0n0s: Yes, that's okay.
[08:14] <PeterPowell> w00t
[08:14] <PeterPowell> got it booting
[08:14] <drewby> Zorlin: I'll give a search a shot, I'm not sure Filezilla really has what I need.
[08:14] <Zorlin> drewby: If you get the same error; post on the forums, if not, post a bug report for gFTP.
[08:14] <PeterPowell> another question
[08:14] <_0xf> can anyone walk me through getting my wirless usb to work ive been trying for days
[08:14] <_0xf> nothing is working
[08:14] <Damjan2> how to see which tty are logged
[08:15] <The_Entropy> _MrPink_, I should have thought of that >_>
[08:15] <PeterPowell> can i dual boot with ubuntu server edition
[08:15] <INTit> so apt-get install java6 will that work for 64bit ?
[08:15] <Zorlin> Drewby: Oh okay, good luck.
[08:15] <Tomcat_> darkchr0n0s: fdisk just shows connected drives, even unmounted ones.
[08:15] <darkchr0n0s> thanks again ;)
[08:15] <sax1johno> INTit: it should if your repositories are set to the 64-bit repo.
[08:15] <_MrPink_> The_Entropy np ;)
[08:15] <rhalff> Damjan2, I'm just going to upgrade to Gutsy, seems easier, it does have a xen kernel with nvidia driver
[08:15] <zylche> Anyone want to help me?
[08:15] <heartsblood> PeterPowell: you can dual boot with any edition of ubuntu.  man grub
[08:16] <_0xf> can anyone walk me through getting my wirless usb to work ive been trying for days
[08:16] <sax1johno> zylche: sorry, I think the easiest way is to reboot X.  CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE
[08:16] <jshriver> greetings :)
[08:16] <The_Entropy> PeterPowell, dual boot has nothing to do with ubuntu, or linux for that matter, it is possible to dual boot 2 windows installs
[08:16] <INTit> howd i set the repos to 64 bit
[08:16] <Damjan2> oliver_g, are you on
[08:16] <jshriver> anyone know of a good in-depth document explaining how .deb packaging works.  From creating a deb file and associating all dependencies, to making your own repository, etc.
[08:17] <zylche> thanks anyway :<
[08:17] <jshriver> Wanting to roll my own small distro and wanted it to be .deb based
[08:17] <sax1johno> _0xf: no idea about wireless usb -- sorry.  What is the brand or chipset of your wireless usb device?
[08:17] <floppyears> hi  I'm trying to figure out how to get sudo not to ask me for a password
[08:17] <PeterPowell> The_Entropy: im aware of that
[08:17] <jshriver> !wireless
[08:17] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:17] <The_Entropy> floppyears, why would you want to do that?
[08:17] <jshriver> _0xf, try that address helped me.
[08:17] <floppyears> I'm using visudo and I enter the line: test   ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL
[08:17] <Zorlin> Floppy: Just login as root?
[08:17] <Damjan2> jshriver, if you find send the man on my email, damjandimitrioski@gmail.com
[08:17] <domidomido_21717> http://www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=2052154
[08:17] <floppyears> and it still asks me for a password :(
[08:18] <domidomido_21717> spende
[08:18] <domidomido_21717> http://www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=2052154
[08:18] <floppyears> The_Entropy: I want to be able to run /etc/init.d/gdm as a non-root user
[08:18] <tomaw> domidomido_21717: please do not paste reflinks on freenode
[08:18] <floppyears> without having to type in a password
[08:18] <Zorlin> floppyears: Tried fakeroot?
[08:18] <domidomido_21717> why
[08:18] <tomaw> domidomido_21717: doing so will get you banned from here and pennergame.
[08:18] <domidomido_21717> V
[08:18] <domidomido_21717> http://www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=2052154
[08:18] <sax1johno> INTit: if you're using a 64-bit version of ubuntu, you will automatically download from the 64-bit repos.
[08:18] <domidomido_21717> oh sorry
[08:18] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: hi again
[08:18] <floppyears> Zorlin: thanks, I'll give that a try, I had completely forgotten about fake root
[08:18] <Damjan2> oliver_g, hey
[08:18] <Zorlin> sudo apt-get install fakeroot [on ubuntu] 
[08:18] <Zorlin> floppyears: Have fun; and your welcome :)
[08:19] <soundray> floppyears: just curious - why do you want to run that as non-root?
[08:19] <The_Entropy> Zorlin, will it run properly with fakeroot?
[08:19] <floppyears> Zorlin: no luck with fakeroot :(
[08:19] <floppyears> I get permission denied by /etc/init.d/gdm once it tries to run stuff
[08:19] <oliver_g_> Damjan2: does it work now? gdm is running
[08:20] <Damjan2> oliver_g, no
[08:20] <floppyears> soundray: well, I just want to be able to restart gdm without having to type in a passwd
[08:20] <The_Entropy> floppyears, this is potentially dangerous(though probably less so than getting sudo to work without a pass) but you could install gdm as setuid root
[08:20] <Damjan2> oliver_g, the x crashed
[08:20] <Damjan2> oliver_g, wait to fix it
[08:20] <The_Entropy> floppyears, or better, write a small script that restarts gdm and install it as setuid root
[08:21] <volantares> howdy
[08:21] <soundray> floppyears: does Ctrl-Alt-Backspace not work for you?
[08:21] <bobby_> Is there anyway I can see the history of added packages ? ( added using apt-get or synaptic ) PLS?
[08:21] <Zorlin> The_Entropy: I have no idea.
[08:21] <floppyears> soundray: I'm using a remote to restart gdm, I have no keyboard connected to this machine
[08:22] <Zorlin> soundray: GDM is nice when you actually have an Xserver?
[08:23] <floppyears> The_Entropy: I know I can change permissions and use setsuid to do what I want, but I'm trying to use sudo
[08:23] <The_Entropy> floppyears, then as I said, just write a script that does it then chown root <script> then chmod +s(or +S, I forget) <script>
[08:23] <floppyears> so I'm trying to make it so that "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" doesn't ask me for a passwd
[08:23] <floppyears> but I've failed with sudo :(
[08:23] <naknomik> can I mount an FTP server folder using autofs?
[08:23] <soundray> floppyears: you could run a loop as root that checks for a user-writable file, and restarts gdm when it finds it.
[08:23] <HealthyElijah> What is the max number of users you have ever seen in this channel? Everyone
[08:24] <floppyears> I think I'll go with The_Entropy 's suggestion of writing a script and giving it setsuid permissions
[08:24] <soundray> HealthyElijah: around 1400. Please discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:24] <ElGruntox> I need some help getting my sound to work. Ive got the module installed (intel8x0 for my onboard realtek) yet nothing is detecting it and I still cant hear anything :(

[08:33] <acidchild> missing the module then.
[08:33] <soundray> _0xf: you need to disable network manager, get the CVS legacy driver from serialmonkey, compile that and replace the existing rt2570.ko (or other name of driver) with the compiled one.

[08:37] <ElGruntox> ugh
[08:38] <Creed> jessica, usually it goes at the end of the kernel line.
[08:38] <_0xf> sudo apt-get remove network-manager
[08:38] <soundray> _0xf: then you don't have a standard ubuntu installation
[08:38] <ElGruntox> I guess ill try a reboot
[08:38] <_0xf> i have
[08:38] <erUSUL> jessica: basically on the "kernel" line of the stanzas in the menu.lst file after the other options like splash quiet etc
[08:38] <Creed> jessica, EXAMPLE: kernel    /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-9-386 root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet splash acpi=noacpi
[08:38] <soundray> _0xf: just continue with the instructions and compile the driver.

[08:38] <jport> I'm using 6.10 and i get no audio when using amarok so i found out i need libxine-extracodecs installed, but i keep getting dependancy issues with libxine-main1 and libxine1
[08:38] <_0xf> ubuntu ubuntu-6.10-dvd-i386
[08:38] <pqnet> jrib I asked the question: my menu is gone, no application entries are shown, and I don't know what it is about
[08:39] <pqnet> I need someone who knows how gnome menu works to help me debug that issue
[08:39] <tico1> someone know how to change the color of the letters of the menu ? also the time ???????????
[08:39] <jrib> pqnet: gutsy help in #ubuntu+1
[08:39] <pqnet> ty
[08:39] <INTit> any ideas sunray ?
[08:39] <Creed> Aha! I love alsa...finally got sound working :)
[08:39] <The_Entropy> tico1, by time do you mean the system time? like the clock?
[08:40] <_0xf> soundray ; make make isntall?
[08:40] <soundray> _0xf: did you get the serialmonkey driver?
[08:40] <jport> so if i try to install libxine-extra codecs it tells me Depends: libxine-main1 but is not installable .. anyone know how to resolve this ?
[08:40] <_0xf> yes
[08:40] <_0xf> i got the rt73usb
[08:41] <_0xf> CVS hourly tarball: rt73-CVS
[08:41] <jessica> Creed: I think mine looks like this right now:: kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic root=UUID=04749e17-aeda-40d2-923f-ab4257bd4095 ro quiet splash :: do I just add acpi=noacpi right after the splash ??
[08:41] <Creed> jessica, correct.
[08:41] <jessica> Creed: thanks ill try it
[08:41] <tico1> The_Entropy: ok i want to use the panel in black color, but if i use black i can't see the time aplications, places, etc. because they use by default black color
[08:41] <Creed> jessica, anytime!
[08:41] <soundray> _0xf: I recommend that you don't 'make install'. Just 'make' and copy the new rt73usb.ko to the location of the old one (find with 'locate rt73.ko | grep $(uname -r)')
[08:42] <The_Entropy> tico1, I see but I have no idea how to do tha
[08:42] <The_Entropy> that*
[08:42] <tico1> The_Entropy: no problem thanks, by the way where are u from?
[08:43] <GuHHH> is gforce fx5500 nvidia-glx-legacy ?
[08:43] <_0xf> soundray that locate cmd puts me at       > curser
[08:43] <The_Entropy> tico1, why do you ask?
[08:43] <soundray> _0xf: don't copy the quote marks
[08:44] <_0xf> locate rt73.ko | grep $(uname -r)')
[08:44] <soundray> _0xf: and note, I probably haven't used the correct name for the module

[08:51] <diablos_raven> favor
[08:51] <kobolog> any ideas on why doing 'sudo gconftool-2 -s --type string /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/default usr/bin/compiz' resets every restart?
[08:51] <MrObvious> Johnson: Hmm, try it and see. If it doesn't work you can always uninstall it I say.
[08:51] <soundray> _0xf: 'cp rt73.ko /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/ ; sudo depmod -a'
[08:52] <MrObvious> Johnson: I'm worried about it not being enough.
[08:52] <Johnson> but it wouldn't like break my ubuntu. right MrObvious.
[08:52] <MrObvious> Johnson: Nope.
[08:52] <Johnson> i could always just uninstall correct?
[08:52] <Johnson> ok
[08:52] <MrObvious> Johnson: Exactly.

[08:53] <_0xf> and installed
[08:53] <_0xf> just need to get online
[08:53] <soundray> _0xf: when you update them, you're going to have to repeat the compile-install procedure.
[08:53] <_0xf> which
[08:53] <soundray> _0xf: why didn't you go for the latest stable release?
[08:54] <MrObvious> jessica: You'll need network access. Try plugging in an Ethernet cable to your laptop.
[08:54] <The_Entropy> jessica, do a "sudo apt-get update" then try again
[08:54] <jessica> The_Entropy: k
[08:54] <Mumphry> so yeah can anyone help me with my sound?
[08:54] <jessica> MrObvious: I am on the laptop right now with ethernet

[08:55] <_0xf> ok
[08:56] <_0xf> ok now what
[08:56] <savetheWorld> Kazero: did u solave your csh/bash issue?
[08:56] <_0xf> it worked
[08:56] <jessejazza> Mumphry: is it sound for streaming videos you're after? Just solved it on my machine
[08:56] <soundray> _0xf: did you do the sudo depmod -a ?
[08:56] <Mumphry> no its just sound
[08:57] <Mumphry> for everything
 Package ndiswrapper does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas | then how come I have it?

[08:57] <Mumphry> For some reason my onboard sound isnt getting detected when I type aplay -l
[08:57] <Mumphry> yet everything is installed right
[08:57] <phasegen> anyone good with wine?
[08:57] <PeterPowell> phasegen: red or white wine
[08:57] <PeterPowell> ;)
[08:58] <Mumphry> so im stumped
[08:58] <MrObvious> liberum: Do you use NTFS-3G?
[08:58] <_0xf> yngone@yngone-desktop;~/desktop/rt73-cvs-2007100600/modules$
[08:58] <phasegen> blush
[08:58] <_0xf> just sitting at next line
[08:58] <MrObvious> jessica: Read the link ubotu gives you next about it:
[08:58] <MrObvious> !ndiswrapper
[08:58] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:58] <jessejazza> have you installed gstreamer? That will give you sound! Video is more hard
[08:58] <liberum> MrObvious: I guess so.. how can i be really sure?
[08:58] <zengen> Can someone tell me what 'noapic nolapic irqpoll' does when added to grub boot parameters.  I found it for a shutdown problem I'm having with my wireless.
[08:58] <Mumphry> gstreamer?
[08:58] <Mumphry> ill try
[08:58] <MrObvious> liberum: Did you have writing capabilities on your NTFS drives or read only?
[08:58] <jessica> is there a way I can find out what wireless card I have through the command line?
[08:59] <brobostigon> lspci lsusb
[08:59] <_0xf> soundray ?
[08:59] <MrObvious> jessica: Try lspci and look for it there. Don't paste the output here but copy/paste it to a pastebin service then give us the resulting URL.
[08:59] <jessejazza> go to synaptic - search for gstreamer, install. problem solved i'd reckon
[08:59] <soundray> _0xf: time to reboot now. See if you get a wireless interface. Configure it via System-Administration-Networking
[08:59] <Mumphry> hopefully
[08:59] <Steven_Office> jessica, there are a few WIFI cards acer used there for the best thing to do is turn over the laptop there will be a cover with 2 screews take it off and you will see a card with 2 wire's hook on it, that would be the card on it will have card type or just #'s right it all down
[08:59] <soundray> _0xf: and have some patience on IRC. I'm doing more than one thing at a time.
[09:00] <jessejazza> let me know how you get on
[09:00] <_0xf> thank u sir ill be rebooting right now
[09:00] <liberum> MrObvious: I had write capabiliteis yes
[09:00] <phasegen> I'm trying to figure out how to pass options  for the executable file
[09:00] <soundray> jessica: probably. Is it built-in?
[09:00] <Steven_Office> soundray, good ? oops
[09:01] <MrObvious> liberum: Okay then you probably uncleanly shut down. I've had this happen before. I'll have to google forcing it to mount.
[09:01] <Inox> Hi
[09:01] <TheDiff> hey there

[09:01] <TheDiff> i have a lirc question

[09:01] <Inox> how can I install a restricted driver for my nvidia card?
[09:01] <liberum> MrObvious: Please do so :) I don't know what to search for. Thanks!
[09:01] <TheDiff> possibly an interrupt question in general
[09:01] <TheDiff> it seems that input from the remote is being buffered
[09:01] <Inox> I mean to enable it
[09:01] <soundray> !nvidia > Inox, please read the private message from ubotu
[09:01] <jessica> it matches one of the names on the wifidocs website
[09:01] <TheDiff> such that i have to hit a button twice to get the signal to show up
[09:02] <Inox> it says it can't be enabled
[09:02] <MrObvious> liberum:  mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/SimpleDrive -o force
[09:02] <soundray> jessica: that's the one -- it's a troublemaker, unfortunately
[09:02] <MrObvious> liberum: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3439165
[09:02] <kobolog> i have my /desktop/.../window_manager/default resetting to "" every boot, what could be the matter?
[09:02] <MrObvious> jessica: Please stop.
[09:02] <liberum> MrObvious: Will it mount automatically after that too?
[09:02] <MrObvious> jessica: We told you the wrong way to install it. I have a 4318 too and used a different method.
[09:02] <_0xf> soundray there is wireless connection
[09:02] <MrObvious> liberum: No clue.
[09:03] <_0xf> i gotta set it up
[09:03] <_0xf> it says
[09:03] <Steven_Office> Broadcom Corporation BCM4318, the last time I used Broadcom I have had to use Ndsrapper can anyone conferm this.
[09:03] <jessica> MrObvious: humm, ok, whats a good method ?
[09:03] <Steven_Office> my damn typing sucks today
[09:03] <liberum> MrObvious: Thanks :)
[09:03] <MrObvious> Steven_Office: I have a 4318 and use fwcutter.
[09:03] <MrObvious> jessica: I need to do some researching.
[09:03] <jessica> MrObvious: I just want it working
[09:03] <rexy_> Steven_Office: i believe that's still the case
[09:03] <MrObvious> jessica: I understand.
[09:03] <_0xf> soundray is there a way to get it to scan for the network
[09:03] <prayer_> hi
[09:03] <jessica> MrObvious: ok thanks :)
[09:03] <MrObvious> YW jessica
[09:04] <speart> hello
[09:04] <rexy_> Steven_Office: there's a list on the ubuntu wiki which hardware is supported
[09:04] <soundray> _0xf: on the commandline, enter 'sudo iwlist wlan0 scan' (replace your interface name if it's not wlan0)
[09:04] <Johnson_> MrObvious: i downloaded beryl, and found the settings, and its theme manager, b ut i dont know where i turn it on from
[09:04] <Steven_Office> jessica, ok there you go lets see If I can find you a simple how to on ndswrapper
[09:04] <speart> how stable is Gutsy right now, can I install it right now?
[09:04] <jessica> Steven_Office: k
[09:04] <rexy_> speart it's not stable
[09:04] <MrObvious> Johnson_: You have to enable desktop effects.
[09:04] <MrObvious> Steven_Office: No please don't.
[09:05] <Inox> My mistake, I said to install nvidia driver, but I have it already installed, I mean to enable it because it is restricted driver, when I go to restricted drivers manager, and try to enable it, it says it can't be enabled, should I stop gdm before?
[09:05] <speart> few months ago it was very unstable, it even crashed
[09:05] <The_Entropy> Johnson_, Alt+f2 then type in "beryl-manager"
[09:05] <prayer_> dont like these effects...openbox/gnome is much better
[09:05] <Steven_Office> MrObvious, ?
[09:05] <speart> do you say that 12 days will resolve all issues?
[09:05] <MrObvious> Steven_Office: I've done this myself and use fwcutter and know that it works. I just need to spend a few minutes using the search tool on the forums. ndiswrapper won't work as well.
[09:05] <rexy_> speart: it still might, it's beta software, dont use it if you dont know how to fix it
[09:05] <liberum> MrObvious: Aaah! It seems like a unclean windows shutdown can f*ck things up... that's something logical.... i try booting windows and making a checkdisk
[09:05] <MrObvious> liberum: No, just reboot Winblows twice.
[09:05] <soundray> speart: ask in #ubuntu+1
[09:06] <_0xf> ok soundray it worked. i see my network
[09:06] <_0xf> how do i connect to it
[09:06] <soundray> _0xf: System-Administration-Networking
[09:06] <Steven_Office> MrObvious, ok I have not used this so I will return to work and let you take over
[09:06] <soundray> _0xf: is it encrypted?
[09:06] <Inox> How can I enable a restricted driver from terminal?
[09:06] <_0xf> yeah
[09:06] <MrObvious> Steven_Office: Thank you very much. I'm sorry I had to yell at you but I needed to make sure the right advice was given.
[09:06] <_0xf> WEP
[09:07] <soundray> _0xf: then it should be straightforward.
[09:07] <Steven_Office> MrObvious, no problem
[09:07] <_0xf> its not conencting
[09:07] <lufis> Anyone else having trouble with gedit when using gksudo?
[09:07] <The_Entropy> MrObvious, sorry for suggesting ndiswrapper btw :)
[09:07] <The_Entropy> lufis, what kinda of trouble?
[09:07] <Inox> How can I enable a restricted driver from terminal?
[09:07] <MrObvious> jessica: This method will only give you 11 Mbps but at least encryption will work too.
[09:07] <MrObvious> The_Entropy: It's okay.
[09:08] <lufis> The_Entropy: it freezes, won't respond
[09:08] <EddieMty> Inox: I think this is not the right way, but one the nvidia drivers are installed, you can enable them editing the xorg.conf file
[09:08] <MrObvious> Ndiswrapper will give you 54M but it's more buggy and doesn't always work.
[09:08] <The_Entropy> lufis, never seen that before =\
[09:08] <jessica> MrObvious: hummm, I dont use encryption right now
[09:08] <_0xf> soundray wont connect
[09:08] <Mumphry> jessejazza,
[09:08] <lufis> The_Entropy: me either :P not until now
[09:08] <Mumphry> it still doesnt work
[09:08] <soundray> _0xf: what did I say about patience?
[09:08] <AlanBShepard70> Can someone help get an nvidia geforce4 mx400 video card to work with feisty? I can't get my computer to finish booting when I'm using the card. With dapper I would get not synching kernel panic now it just loops something on the screen to fast to read
[09:08] <MrObvious> jessica: Yeah but this will let you use it if needed.
[09:09] <Inox> EddieMty, Ok, do you know what should I do in xorg.conf?
[09:09] <EddieMty> inox: mine is as follows:
[09:09] <EddieMty> Section "Device"
[09:09] <EddieMty>         Identifier      "NVIDIA Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 440 Go] "
[09:09] <EddieMty>         Driver          "nvidia"
[09:09] <EddieMty>         BusID           "PCI:1:0:0"
[09:09] <The_Entropy> lufis, run it from terminal, is there any output before it crashes/freezes/fucks up ?
[09:09] <Inox> thanks
[09:09] <soundray> _0xf: I can't advise about WEP. It's usually straightforward, but perhaps ask MrObvious
[09:09] <lufis> The_Entropy: none, it doesn't output anything. i have to killall it
[09:09] <PeterPowell> ugh
[09:09] <soundray> !language | The_Entropy
[09:09] <ubotu> The_Entropy: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:09] <Inox> cd /etc
[09:09] <PeterPowell> getting a kernel panic on startup :|
[09:09] <jessica> MrObvious: ok
[09:09] <EddieMty> once you install the nvidia drivers, there is also a script you can use to install them
[09:09] <jessica> MrObvious: so long as it works
[09:09] <MrObvious> jessica: Download this please: http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o
[09:10] <The_Entropy> soundray, >_>
[09:10] <MrObvious> jessica: Try putting it in your Desktop folder or somewhere easy to find.
[09:10] <PeterPowell> "init has generated signal 4 but has no handler for it"
[09:10] <rexy_> PeterPowell: soothing words didnt help :)? did you change anything before rebooting?
[09:10] <PeterPowell> "kernel panic: noy syncing: attempting to kill init!"
[09:10] <EddieMty> inox: the Driver line is the one you shoud be changing
[09:10] <PeterPowell> rexy_: yes
[09:10] <PeterPowell> i installed it
[09:10] <MrObvious> soundray: I heard my name!!!!!!!!!
[09:10] <EddieMty> inox: it usually uses "nv" for a dummy driver for nvidia
[09:10] <Kazero> savetheWorld: Sorry, just saw your message to me. No, im still struggeling along trying to figure out my csh problem
[09:11] <Mumphry> Can someone please help me get my damn sound to work? :(
[09:11] <rexy_> PeterPowell: you installed feisty?
[09:11] <MrObvious> Mumphry: Be specific and maybe someone will know.
[09:11] <jessica> MrObvious: k its on my desktop
[09:11] <soundray> MrObvious: I got _0xf through a serialmonkey driver installation, but can't continue helping him, as he seems to have a WEP issue.
[09:11] <_0xf> MrObvious; can u help me with trying to install dlink wua 1340 on ubuntu. nothing is working
[09:11] <savetheWorld> Kazero: you can keep the bash script inside the csh in a "here document"
[09:11] <_0xf> i cant see the network,  just cant connect
[09:11] <MrObvious> jessica: Okay do the following: sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[09:11] <_0xf> can see the network*
[09:12] <savetheWorld> Kazero: step into #3linux
[09:12] <MrObvious> _0xf: You can see the network you mean? Hmm I'm only an expert with bcm43xx cards.
[09:12] <EddieMty> inox: to prove if the driver is loaded, you'll need to restart the X environment
[09:12] <Kazero> savetheWorld: Good idea, and I would look it up and use it, but I think its a bit much for this assignment
[09:12] <ConstyXIV> Mumphry: poke your ears out.  then it won't matter if your sound works :)
[09:12] <Inox> that line is exactly as yours
[09:12] <Inox> but it's still disabled
[09:12] <_0xf> yeah i can see the network
[09:12] <jessica> MrObvious: I click yes to fetch and extract firmware?
[09:12] <EddieMty> inox: how do you know it is disabled?
[09:12] <_0xf> but when i put in the ssid and stuff it just times out
[09:12] <_0xf> wont connect
[09:13] <MrObvious> jessica: No I just had you download it.
[09:13] <Inox> because the restricted driver manager says so, and my screen resolution is not right
[09:13] <DenysLins> somebody can help me please
[09:13] <EddieMty> inox: when X starts, it should show the NVidia logo
[09:13] <javaJake> DenysLins, what's going on?
[09:13] <jessica> MrObvious: after I ran that command it asked me if I wanted to fetch and extract firmware
[09:13] <Inox> OK
[09:13] <MrObvious> jessica: I'll need you to post the options for fwcutter to a pastebin in a minute because I'm on a Winblows computer at work and don't remember the options.
[09:13] <Inox> I hope
[09:13] <Inox> thanks
[09:13] <MrObvious> jessica: Say no.
[09:13] <DenysLins> i need instal a second nic
[09:14] <jessica> MrObvious: ok
[09:14] <javaJake> DenysLins, ok
[09:14] <EddieMty> inox: be warned that if the driver is not installed, X _won't_ start
[09:14] <javaJake> DenysLins, wireless/wired?
[09:14] <DenysLins> jwired
[09:14] <MrObvious> jessica: Do you know how to use a pastebin?
[09:14] <DenysLins> wired
[09:14] <jessica> yes
[09:14] <javaJake> DenysLins, ethernet I assume?
[09:14] <DenysLins> jy
[09:14] <MrObvious> _0xf: Sorry I can't be more help :(. You might try the Ubuntu Forums: http://ubuntuforums.org
[09:15] <TheDiff> anyone have any experience with lirc?
[09:15] <javaJake> DenysLins, OK, what's the issue?
[09:15] <MrObvious> _0xf: Try this subforum: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=136
[09:15] <jessica> MrObvious: I am getting some errors, here is the pastebin
[09:15] <jessica> http://pastebin.com/m52c69455
[09:15] <jessica> MrObvious: http://pastebin.com/m52c69455
[09:15] <Inox> Why if I installed 7.10, the update manager is still upgrading Ubuntu?
[09:15] <javaJake> this.getClass() then... lemme try that
[09:15] <DenysLins> i buy a DLINK DFE-520tx
[09:16] <MrObvious> jessica: Looks okay still. Now do me a favor and type bcm43xx-fwcutter at a terminal and paste it to the pastebin.
[09:16] <javaJake> Oops. Wrong channel. XD
[09:16] <EddieMty> inox: is the nvidia driver working?
[09:16] <MrObvious> DenysLins: Is that a DSL network adapter?
[09:16] <DenysLins> yes
[09:16] <Inox> nope I haven't tried because Ubuntu is upgrading
[09:16] <EddieMty> inox: ok
[09:16] <MrObvious> DenysLins: It won't work with Linux. You'll need to invest in wireless or something.
[09:16] <soundray> _0xf: can you disable WEP on your router just for testing?
[09:16] <MrObvious> DenysLins: I've been there and done that.
[09:17] <jeroen_> hey peepz
[09:17] <MrObvious> jeroen_: Hey!
[09:17] <jeroen_> could you guys help me out getting the wifi to work on my laptop?
[09:17] <javaJake> DenysLins, looks like you get a crash, correct?
[09:17] <Inox> but the weird thing is that i installed 7.10 and I thought that after that is not necessary to upgrade
[09:17] <javaJake> DenysLins, kernel crash?
[09:17] <MrObvious> DenysLins: Your only hope is if they have Linux compatable HPNA 2.0 cards.
[09:17] <EddieMty> inox: it is upgrading because the distributions are not static
[09:17] <EddieMty> inox: the packages are upgraded continuously
 PeterPowell: you installed feisty?
[09:17] <jeroen_> I just installed Ubuntu :)
[09:17] <PeterPowell> i installed "ubuntu-7.04-desktop-powerpc"
[09:17] <Inox> yes, but it use to update not to upgrade
[09:17] <javaJake> jeroen_, the more info, the better. There are a gazillion wifi cards in a gazillion laptops, if you know what I mean. :)
[09:18] <DenysLins> but it is compatible
[09:18] <Inox> but probably is normal
[09:18] <jessica> MrObvious: here http://pastebin.com/m3ee3ebc1
[09:18] <DenysLins> have a drive in cd
[09:18] <jeroen_> I have a broadcom 4318 wifi card
[09:18] <MrObvious> DenysLins: If I were you I would hook up a wireless router from Buffalo for 20 bucks and make sure it supports DD-WRT (http://www.dd-wrt.com) and buy a wireless adapter.
[09:18] <MrObvious> jessica: Thanks.
[09:18] <bobby_> Is there anyway I can see the history of added packages ? ( added using apt-get or synaptic ) PLS?
[09:18] <superpenguin> _0xf: lspci|grep Ethernet
[09:18] <MrObvious> jeroen_: Okay. I'm helping jessica with this too.
[09:18] <jeroen_> and I have WPA on my wifi network
[09:18] <DenysLins> i have a adsl concection
[09:18] <Inox> last time ubuntu upgraded on my computer it didn't start again
[09:18] <MrObvious> jeroen_: Download this please: http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o
[09:18] <DenysLins> the moden is routed
[09:19] <Zenerek> I burned a copy of a movie onto a dvd but the sound is real low and you have raise up sound to hear it well, also there seems to be some blotch like pixel stuff going on...hard to explain but not really noticeable, i burned it at 1x on dao mode, any ideas why the sound or  other thing happened?
[09:19] <MrObvious> DenysLins: I know. Just run a DMZ to the router you'll buy. Get either a Buffalo or I use a Linksys WRT54G. But the Buffalo is much cheaper.
[09:19] <Inox> I think because the videocard
[09:19] <jeroen_> Ok then what?
[09:19] <_0xf> wow
[09:19] <jeroen_> I just downloaded it
[09:19] <_0xf> i cant believe this
[09:19] <MrObvious> jeroen_: sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter and say no to downloading firmware.
[09:19] <jeroen_> now what?
[09:19] <javaJake> DenysLins, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWiredNetworkCardsDlink
[09:19] <DenysLins> on moment
[09:20] <javaJake> DenysLins, according to that page, it is compatible with 6.10...
[09:20] <Inox> so I decided to burn the 7.10 iso and try that way and it works, but now it's upgrading again, and that's why I'm worried
[09:20] <javaJake> DenysLins, http://www.compatdb.org/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=178063
[09:20] <DenysLins> i use the 7.04
[09:20] <javaJake> DenysLins, according to that page, it does NOT work under 7.04. :(
[09:20] <jeroen_> Ok so just did that
[09:20] <superpenguin> _0xf: What happened?
[09:20] <javaJake> DenysLins, research still in progress
[09:20] <jeroen_> what's next? I said NO to downloading the firmware
[09:21] <DenysLins> javaJake: Ok man
[09:21] <MrObvious> jessica: cd ~/Desktop && sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter (the filename I had you download ending in .o)
[09:21] <_0xf> Dlink wua 1340 wont work with ubuntu i guess
[09:21] <PeterPowell> meh screw it
[09:21] <jeroen_> uhm MrObvious....I just did the sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter command
[09:21] <MrObvious> jeroen_: cd ~/Desktop && sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter (the filename I had you download ending in .o)
[09:21] <_0xf> so im gonna have to reinstall windwos
[09:21] <PeterPowell> i will stick to putting osx on mac
[09:21] <PeterPowell> :|
[09:21] <MrObvious> jeroen_: Sorry I'm multitasking. :\
[09:21] <_0xf> waisted the morning installin this sdhit
[09:22] <jeroen_> hehehe
[09:22] <MrObvious> jeroen_: Only cd ~/directory/to/file/you/downloaded
[09:22] <superpenguin> craigslist.org
[09:22] <superpenguin> dang, wrong keyboard
[09:22] <jessica>  MrObvious: k 1 sec
[09:22] <MrObvious> javaJake: It won't work on Linux, I had one card myself like that and had to go to wi-fi.
[09:22] <EddieMty> going to reboot ...
[09:23] <dbft>  hey, anyone know of a way to route a video as if it was a webcam (so it can be picked up by aMSN or Flash or something) and/or the same question for sound and mic
[09:23] <MrObvious> DenysLins: Do you understand what I'm saying about buying a wireless router?
[09:23] <_0xf> i cant belive dlink wiresless usb wont work
[09:23] <_0xf> with ubuntu
[09:23] <javaJake> MrObvious, DenysLins, yea, it looks like you'll have to drop back to 6.10 to get it to work, if at all
[09:23] <_0xf> thats hurtin
[09:23] <DenysLins> MrObvious: yes man
[09:23] <jeroen_> ok ok
[09:23] <superpenguin> _0xf: So you have a dlink wireless card that connects via usb?
[09:23] <MrObvious> DenysLins: Okay. If you have any questions I usually idle this room so you can PM me or whatever.
[09:23] <jeroen_> now I get a whole bunch of files
[09:23] <jeroen_> on my desktop
[09:23] <MrObvious> jeroen_: Hmm now I forget what to do.
[09:23] <The_Entropy> _0xf, lots of things won't work with linux due to lack of drivers =\
[09:24] <MrObvious> jessica: Did you get it?
[09:24] <jessica> MrObvious: k i did that
[09:24] <DenysLins> can i back to 6.10 without unisntall all
[09:24] <javaJake> DenysLins, I recommend you report this as a bug, however, before giving up on 7.04. It just looks like this card doesn't have a lot of attention, but a call to the Ubuntu developers may help you out
[09:24] <javaJake> DenysLins, No
[09:24] <MrObvious> jessica: You got a bunch of files?
[09:24] <jeroen_> I just did the sudo fw-cutter wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o thing
[09:24] <_0xf> what about if i install wine
[09:24] <_0xf> and grab the drivers
[09:24] <jessica> yes
[09:24] <MrObvious> javaJake: Just get him to 6.10 then :)
[09:24] <rexy_> nogo _0xf
[09:24] <jessica> MrObvious: yes
[09:24] <_0xf> why
[09:24] <jeroen_> now I got a whole buch of files on my uhm desktop
[09:24] <jessica> same
[09:24] <javaJake> MrObvious, I just recommended he try reporting this as a bug first, since it appears the kernel crashes when attempting to load the card.
[09:24] <savetheWorld> Kazero: soryy - was in another channel for a moment.
[09:24] <superpenguin> _0xf: I don't know if ndiswrapper works with usb cards, nut you can look in to it
[09:25] <MrObvious> jeroen_: jessica: Let me find the guide to install fwcutter. Give me a minute please.
[09:25] <jeroen_> yeah
[09:25] <MrObvious> javaJake: Okay thanks!
[09:25] <jeroen_> ok
[09:25] <jessica> MrObvious: k
[09:25] <riotkittie> _0xf: g122?
[09:25] <javaJake> MrObvious, hopefully the devs will know how to debug this. ;)
[09:25] <rexy_> wine doesnt emulate such things
[09:25] <_0xf> g122?
[09:25] <riotkittie> _0xf: or some other model???
[09:25] <MrObvious> DenysLins: If you get it to work let me know please!
[09:25] <jeroen_> I had it yesterday....but then I was in windows
[09:25] <DenysLins> ok
[09:25] <The_Entropy> _0xf, wine runs in user space, not kernel, it can't make drivers work
[09:25] <DenysLins> no problem
[09:25] <riotkittie> wait. was it not you who was complaining about dlink wireless/usb? ;P
[09:25] <javaJake> DenysLins, if you do create a bug report, let me know! I'll want to track its progress as well
[09:25] <marko-_-> is there any program for ubuntu that is like don't know sony vegas and i mean a good video editor not someting like movie maker in windows...
[09:25] <DenysLins> ok javajake
[09:26] <The_Entropy> riotkittie, _0xf
[09:26] <_0xf> i cant connect to my modem
[09:26] <_0xf> i need the usb
[09:26] <_0xf> modem to far away
[09:26] <DenysLins> this nic is recognize as a vt6105 rhune iii chipset
[09:26] <DenysLins> rhine
[09:26] <riotkittie> _0xf: and its a dlink usb adapter??
[09:26] <jeroen_> here jessica: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty#head-e11c3138afb4f9fb637d8f0a6d234add934830cc
[09:26] <Zenerek> 0xf: i had  an...still have an usb ethernet device for my other ubuntu box that does not have  ethernet, did not work, to avoid problems you should probably avoid usb devices of that type
[09:27] <DenysLins> when i use lspci
[09:27] <jeroen_> that's the guide obvious is looking fot
[09:27] <jeroen_> for
[09:27] <jeroen_> that's what we need jes
[09:27] <jessica> jeroen_: k ill check it out
[09:27] <jeroen_> :D
[09:27] <MrObvious> jeroen_: jessica: Try modprobe bcm43xx and see if the wireless manager.
[09:27] <MrObvious> jeroen_: Thanks for that.
[09:27] <jeroen_> ok
[09:27] <superpenguin> _0xf: Your modem distance maybe your sole problem
[09:27] <riotkittie> Zenerek: dont say that. plenty of us have working usb adapters, and for many of us, avoiding them is not an option :P
[09:27] <javaJake> DenysLins, very interesting....
[09:27] <MrObvious> jessica: jeroen_: That will give you wi-fi at .b speeds but you'll have full encryption
[09:28] <DenysLins> javaJake:  it's link
[09:28] <jessica> MrObvious: well if it works im happy
[09:28] <floitting> hello. I plugged a dvd drive in usb during im running xubuntu. which command to "mount" or awake it ?
[09:28] <DenysLins> but dont navigate
[09:28] <MrObvious> jessica: It works for me so I'm happy.
[09:28] <javaJake> DenysLins, hmmm, yep. Soudns like a driver issue
[09:28] <DenysLins> yes
[09:28] <jeroen_> I get ethX      Interface doesn't support scanning.
[09:28] <javaJake> DenysLins, I still say you need to report it as a bug.
[09:28] <brobostigon> lsusb. then mount
[09:28] <riotkittie> can someone tell me which model usb adapter that dude has?  or more importantly the chipset?
[09:28] <MrObvious> jeroen_: jessica: If it works but when you reboot it doesn't, just simply do a modprobe bcm43xx. Make sure you leave the files on your desktop.
[09:29] <DenysLins> when a try compile the drive
[09:29] <rexy_> not a clue riotkittie
[09:29] <MrObvious> jeroen_: Does the network manager see it? It's on the taskbar thingy.
[09:29] <DenysLins> show erros
[09:29] <jessica> MrObvious: will this be fixed in gusty
[09:29] <floitting> ok
[09:29] <rexy_> lsusb doesnt say anything?
[09:29] <javaJake> riotkittie, which dude?
[09:29] <javaJake> riotkittie, :)
[09:29] <_0xf> ok i connect to the modem  i have 2wire modem can anyone help me setup
[09:29] <MrObvious> jessica: Possibly.
[09:29] <MrObvious> _0xf: You have a 2wire and want to disable encryption?
[09:30] <Zenerek> riotkittie: ok i take back then, i just heard and experienced the opposite
[09:30] <geezone> Can anyone help with a good easy program on ubuntu Linux for web design for beginners.
[09:30] <javaJake> DenysLins, right, I saw that online
[09:30] <_0xf> i jusdt took out the usb wireless and plugged into the modem
[09:30] <jessica> MrObvious: its says: ethX      Interface doesn't support scanning.
[09:30] <javaJake> geezone, you mean, a WYSIWYG HTML editor?
[09:30] <SuperBeast> geezone, kompozer
[09:30] <MrObvious> jeroen_: jessica: Crap. We are very close. What step am I missing??????????
[09:30] <riotkittie> Zenerek: they can be a [stream of obscenities] , for sure :P   but ndiswrapper <sigh> is always an option, and quite a few work better under gutsy than they do under feisty
[09:31] <geezone> thanks will try both
[09:31] <Creed> !codecs | Creed
[09:31] <javaJake> geezone, seriously, HTML+CSS isn't that hard to learn, and you can make your sites much much better than any editor can, and faster too. IMHO, of course

[09:32] <MrObvious> Whoa guys calm down!
[09:32] <jrib> ButtonLover: ?
[09:32] <dbft>  hey, anyone know of a way to route a video as if it was a webcam (so it can be picked up by aMSN or Flash or something) and/or the same question for sound and mic
[09:32] <crisp1> Oh hello! Im having a little trouble again with compiz fuzion: I cant seem to make any changes on the compiz control panel (ccsm) - all options are greyed out. Anyone had this problem or heard of it?

[09:33] <Level15> hmmm
[09:33] <Level15> not quite what i was asking...
[09:33] <javaJake> :)
[09:33] <rexy_> dbft: depends on the application but yeah you can use a streaming server for a combined audio/video feed
[09:33] <sg1cat> Need some newbie help with sound on a Toshiba satellite laptop.  Works when I boot the 2.6.17-10 kernel, but not when I boot the 2.6.20-16 kernel.  lspci, lsmod, and dmesg don't show any obvious errors
[09:33] <jessica> MrObvious: this sucks lol I think im just gonna go back to windows.
[09:33] <jrib> ButtonLover: was there a reason for that?
[09:33] <minisrule192> hi
[09:33] <MrObvious> jeroen_: Did your output match jessica's output?
[09:33] <minisrule192> Two users walked into a bar, /quit and /exit... /exit got bored and walked out, who was left?
[09:33] <MrObvious> jessica: No don't!
[09:33] <MrObvious> jessica: I'm close.
[09:33] <javaJake> ButtonLover, you'll want to use an Apache server, and a MySQL DB server. Then you'll need PHP4 or PHP5, and its Apache extensions.
[09:34] <jessica> MrObvious: lol ok ill try a bit more
[09:34] <dbft> basically i just want a video file ran as if it was a webcam (so for example it would appear as a webcam on aMSN or pidgin)
[09:34] <rexy_> sg1cat: did you check it's unmuted?
[09:34] <MrObvious> jessica: I just can't remember which step I need to do for it to work.
[09:34] <ciprian> I've just installed the server edition of ubuntu and not been asked for the root password. is there a default one?
[09:34] <sg1cat> rexy_:yeah, I walked all controls in alsamixer, no good
[09:34] <rexy_> lsmod shows the drivers are loaded?
[09:34] <Seveas> !root | ciprian
[09:34] <javaJake> !su | ciprian
[09:34] <ubotu> ciprian: 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
[09:34] <ubotu> ciprian: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:34] <javaJake> :D
[09:34] <Seveas> !-su
[09:34] <ubotu> su is <alias> sudo - added by gnomefreak on 2006-08-09 22:50:33
[09:34] <Level15> hey, how do i use a proxy with update-manager?
[09:35] <jessica> MrObvious: :) I don't even understand the steps haha
[09:35] <ciprian> thanks
[09:35] <sg1cat> lsmod shows...
[09:35] <rexy_> Level15: you mean another update server?
[09:35] <MrObvious> jeroen__: You there?
[09:35] <jeroen__> well no luck
[09:35] <Level15> rexy_: no, i mean an http proxy
[09:35] <MrObvious> jeroen__: Oh okay.
[09:35] <javaJake> Level15, set up proxy stuff in Network Proxy, under System -> Preferences or System -> Administration
[09:35] <jeroen__> can't scan
[09:35] <jeroen__> can't connect
[09:35] <javaJake> Level15, never done that before, but I'll bet that's what you want
[09:35] <MrObvious> jeroen__: jessica: Try sudo ifup eth1 or whatever it's using.
[09:35] <ciprian> are there any settings I need to change in order to connect to this server isntallation with putty?
[09:35] <sg1cat> lsmo shows - snd_seq_dummy snd_hda_intel         snd_hda_codec        snd_pcm_oss           snd_mixer_oss
[09:35] <jeroen__> tried manually setting up wifi essid and stuff
[09:35] <rexy_> Level15: if you are proxying packages you could also use a transparant proxy?
[09:36] <ciprian> currently says connection denied
[09:36] <javaJake> ciprian, yes, install openssh-server
[09:36] <sg1cat> snd_pcm               snd_seq_dummy          snd_seq_oss           snd_seq_midi           snd_rawmidi           snd_seq_midi_event     snd_seq
[09:36] <javaJake> ciprian, then you're set
[09:36] <rexy_> or mirror locally
[09:36] <eltese> How do I see which a list of my hard drives so I know which one to install on? 8
[09:36] <Level15> javaJake: err... not using gnome here... so i don't think that's going to work :S
[09:36] <ciprian> javaJake Cheers"
[09:36] <MrObvious> jeroen__: jessica: Can we move to #eocf (/join #eocf) so it's easier to see each other?
[09:36] <javaJake> Level15, ah, bummer. ;)
[09:36] <sg1cat> also snd_seq_device and soundcore
[09:36] <Zenerek> ndiswrapper yeah yeah, but why are you running 6.06 when you could be running shiny new version, well it's stable and harder so i can learn thing the hard way...assuming it's at all harder...cause when i tried 7.04 on my laptop it's seemed the same and maybe even a little harder, i like how the the repo setup screen looks in dapper more
[09:36] <jessica> MrObvious sure
[09:36] <Level15> rexy_: no, it's just that in my university the only way i can get to internet os through an http proxy
[09:36] <Level15> *is
[09:37] <javaJake> Zenerek, theming is changeable
[09:37] <rexy_> ah, then a global proxy as javajake suggested should be your best bet
[09:37] <Level15> hmmm
[09:37] <Level15> ok
[09:37] <rexy_> sg1cat: how are you testing sound?
[09:37] <Level15> let me try to see if i find how to set that up under non-gnome environments
[09:37] <sg1cat> looking for the ubuntu "splash" boot sounds, playing video files
[09:37] <javaJake> Level15, betcha Google'll know. :)
[09:37] <sg1cat> all that works when I boot to 2.6.16-10, but not later kernels
[09:38] <Jarl> Hi guys
[09:38] <frostburn> eltese, $cat /etc/fstab
[09:38] <sg1cat> make that 2.6.17-10 works, no other kernels
[09:38] <javaJake> Level15, I'd search ubuntu proxy or linux proxy first
[09:38] <Jarl> Need help =)
[09:38] <javaJake> Jarl, that's a given
[09:38] <javaJake> :)
[09:38] <Jarl> i am a newbie, Grub error 17
[09:38] <javaJake> Ooo, OK
[09:38] <Jarl> does it sounds familar ?
[09:38] <ciprian> javaJake I get invalid operation openssh-server
[09:38] <javaJake> "17 : Cannot mount selected partition "
[09:38] <Flannel> Level15: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/177  Scroll down to the second bit
[09:38] <pietro10> Hello
[09:38] <Jarl> yeap =)
[09:39] <Jarl> buuls eye
[09:39] <Level15> ok, let me see
[09:39] <javaJake> Jarl, that probably means Grub has been setup to use a specific spot on the hard drive, but that's changed.
[09:39] <pietro10> Hello
[09:39] <javaJake> Jarl, or your hard drive is somehow corrupted
[09:39] <rexy_> sg1cat: hmm the boot sound should generally work
[09:39] <veresch> Folks, I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 and i am getting thousands of messages like this in my syslog: Oct  6 15:38:53 ubuntu2 kernel: [  450.118335]  scsi(0): [R|Z] IO update completion., does anyone know what might be causing it and if ther eis a way for me to turn this logging off?
[09:39] <rexy_> any errors in dmesg?
[09:39] <Jarl> hdd just works good
[09:39] <speaker219> Do you know if there's a package or another easy way to make Ubuntu/GNOME look like OSX?
[09:39] <Jarl> mybe bad menu.lst ?
[09:39] <pietro10> Is there any information on installing LILO on a system running Edubuntu 6.10? I need it to multiboot Plan 9
[09:39] <sg1cat> rexy_:that's why I'm tearing my hear out...sound just doesn't work, and I can't find ANY errors in the usual places.
[09:39] <javaJake> speaker219, Google Ubuntu OSX and you'll probably get a few results
[09:40] <javaJake> speaker219, there are quite a few excellent guides on this specific thing
[09:40] <Zenerek> so anyway burned a dvd copy at 1x dao mode,not an iso a folder with the contents, problem the sound came out real low and there were some blotch like pixel areas that were visable but not to much, anyone know why ?
[09:40] <rexy_> sg1cat: did you try catting a wav file to the sound device?
[09:40] <dbft> so does nobody have any ideas?
[09:40] <rexy_> dbft: que?
[09:40] <rfcompte> hi.. i'm having trouble with the gnome brightness applet
[09:40] <sg1cat> rexy_:hang on...
[09:40] <pietro10> speaker219, there was a two part article on Gizmodo a while back
[09:40] <_0xf> when i type ./configure  for ipkungfu i get configure error; c compiler cannot create execubles
[09:40] <rfcompte> it stopped working
[09:40] <dbft>  hey, anyone know of a way to route a video as if it was a webcam (so it can be picked up by aMSN or Flash or something) and/or the same question for sound and mic
[09:40] <MasterShrek> _0xf, sudo apt-get install build-essential    then try again
[09:40] <pietro10> _0xf: do you have: build-essential gcc gcc-4.0 make?
[09:40] <rfcompte> can anyone help me out'
[09:40] <rexy_> dbft: depends on the application but yeah you can use a streaming server for a combined audio/video feed
[09:41] <pietro10> rfcompte: what is your problem?
[09:41] <Jbirk> What is on Ubuntu's Extended Partition in Edgy?
[09:41] <frojnd> hello there
[09:41] <liberum> Is there any way to convert en NTFS partition to EXT3? Maybe convert it to NTFS -> FAT32 -> EXT3? Ideas?
[09:41] <techjim> I just one-click installed nvidia drivers and compiz still isn't doing good.  kde seems to hang but it's only on the graphic side of things.
[09:41] <frojnd> how can I zip 2 files?
[09:41] <_0xf> same thing
[09:41] <dbft> umm rexy_...
[09:41] <Jarl> so any ideas how to fix it ? i don't know anything about GRUB
[09:41] <javaJake> rfcompte, no one can say whether or not they can help you unless the helpers know what to help you with
[09:41] <dbft> on the "application"?
[09:41] <frostburn> liberum, not without saving the data first
[09:41] <veresch> Folks, I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 and i am getting thousands of messages like this in my syslog: Oct  6 15:38:53 ubuntu2 kernel: [  450.118335]  scsi(0): [R|Z] IO update completion., does anyone know what might be causing it and if ther eis a way for me to turn this logging off?
[09:41] <riotkittie> whats Plan 9? and GRUB cant be used? plan9 doesnt have a boot manager you can chainload with?
[09:41] <rfcompte> pietro10. i updated the kernel (running gutsy beta) and suddenly it stopped working
[09:41] <dbft> for example ifi want to webcam to feed into flash
[09:41] <Zenerek>  dbft; vlc media player has options for such a thing...many of them, don't ask me how to do it though
[09:41] <frostburn> rfcompte, you want #ubuntu+1
[09:42] <rexy_> dbft: yeah depends how it's structured, push /pull
[09:42] <pietro10> rcompte: I can't help you
[09:42] <rexy_> are you broadcasting to one receiver or multiples, etc
[09:42] <jeroen_> hey!
[09:42] <dbft> ah ok i'll take a look Zenerek :)
[09:42] <jeroen_> I'm  on wifi!
[09:42] <_0xf> when i type ./configure  for ipkungfu i get configure error; c compiler cannot create execubles
[09:42] <Jarl> =(
[09:42] <liberum> frostburn: Ok... don't have that kind of disk space :P
[09:42] <pietro10> Plan 9's internal bootloader only boots Plan 9, and the docs only talk about LILO (other people had problems with GRUB)
[09:42] <riotkittie> hey. jeroen's on wifi!
[09:42] <Jarl> javaJake can you help me ?
[09:42] <ubuntu_> hello
[09:42] <pietro10> Plan 9 from Bell Labs: the son of UNIX, by the makers of UNIX
[09:42] <dbft> rexy_ thats not what i mean - i want it to appear like a webcam has been plugged in
[09:42] <jeroen_> Yeah!
[09:42] <Wolf23> overclucker:  hello dude
[09:42] <ubuntu_> can someone help me ? im having problems with ubuntu
[09:42] <erUSUL> _0xf: build-essential installed?
[09:42] <dbft> so it will work with a number of applications which accept webcams
[09:42] <rfcompte> ok thanks... thank you frostburn
[09:42] <pietro10> ubuntu_: hello
[09:42] <jeroen_> now let's see what happens when I reboot
[09:42] <ubuntu_> hi
[09:42] <pietro10> ubuntu_: what is your problem?
[09:43] <andrew____> Can anyone help me return my mbr back to normal?
[09:43] <pietro10> whoever wanted Linux to look like OS X: it was actually Linux Planet: http://linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/6223/1/
[09:43] <javaJake> Jarl, well, recovering GRUB is beyond this channel (as far as time goes). Instead, you'll have to follow a guide...
[09:43] <javaJake> Jarl, looking that up now
[09:43] <_0xf> yeah build essential installed
[09:43] <ubuntu_> ok
[09:43] <pietro10> andrew___: name all the OSs you have
[09:43] <_0xf> no
[09:43] <sg1cat> rexy_:
[09:43] <sg1cat> rexy_:  /dev/audio, right?
[09:43] <Jarl> ok, thx
[09:43] <_0xf> it couldnt find the package
[09:43] <ubuntu_> i had windows xp and ubuntu installed
[09:43] <_0xf> it couldnt find the package
[09:43] <andrew____> I want to install a new hd to put ubuntu on my everytime I put it in grub gives me an error 5
[09:43] <pietro10> _0xf: all of build-essential, gcc, and make
[09:43] <rexy_> pietro10:  can't you just point grub to the plan 9 bootloader and boot from there?
[09:43] <ubuntu_> i needed to format one partition
[09:43] <rexy_> sglcat err or dsp
[09:43] <pietro10> people had problems, and I don't know how
[09:43] <ubuntu_> so i backup my data
[09:43] <pietro10> plan 9 has its own filesystem
[09:44] <_0xf> it cant find build essential package
[09:44] <andrew____> idk how
[09:44] <ubuntu_> and, to make it ntfs
[09:44] <pietro10> ubuntu_: what is your problem
[09:44] <ubuntu_> i installed windows xp
[09:44] <sg1cat> cat english.wav >/dev/dsp
[09:44] <sg1cat> bash: /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy
[09:44] <triton----> hi im trying to use userspace-cdemu, i installed it ok, i loaded the image but i can't find the mount...

[09:44] <triton----> 0     1          IMAGE-CCD  /home/triton/Desktop/emlin601.cue
[09:44] <rexy_> sglcat lsof /dev/dsp?
[09:44] <triton----> any ideas?
[09:44] <sg1cat> lsmod doesn't show any file using it
[09:44] <Flannel> dbft: You don't need a specific application for that, if the kernel recognizes your webcam, it'll work.  A good app to test with is Ekiga, since it'll show you what your webcam sees.  If you go to a tty and unplug/plugin your webcam, you should see a message about USB stuff if its recognized.  Also, if its not working, google around for your webcam model and linux.  See if anyone else has gotten it to work
[09:44] <sg1cat> pardon, lsof
[09:44] <_0xf> it couldnt find the package
[09:44] <ubuntu_> pietro10 i have a partition that has ubuntu, how can i make it boot by this partition
[09:44] <pietro10> _0xf: add universal
[09:44] <_0xf> how do i do that
[09:44] <rexy_> sglcat lsof /dev/snd/* ?
[09:44] <dbft> noo Flannel - maybe im explaining badly
[09:44] <pietro10> ubuntu_: tell me what you did to install
[09:44] <ubuntu_> it is hda1, but pc is booting on hda2
[09:45] <Flannel> _0xf: it's not in universe.  It's build-essential, with the dash, and no s.
[09:45] <dbft> say i have a file abc.avi and want it to stream AS IF IT IS A WEBCAM
[09:45] <sg1cat> vlc     5796 earnoth  mem    CHR  116,6      13473 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p

[09:45] <dbft> into flash, or amsn, or pidgin - or whatever
[09:45] <pietro10> In what order did you install, ubuntu_: win xp first or ubuntu first?
[09:45] <sg1cat> vlc     5796 earnoth   10u   CHR  116,6      13473 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p

[09:45] <ubuntu_> pietro10 i installed windowsxp after ubuntu, on the other partition
[09:45] <dbft> so there is no physical webcam in this situation

[09:46] <ubuntu_> ok
[09:46] <pietro10> you're welcome
[09:46] <Hilikus> will cron reschedule a job that it couldnt do lets say because the computer was off? so when you turn it on it would catch up with missed jobs??

[09:47] <riotkittie> what the hay is urpmi ?
[09:47] <ubuntu_> :) i understand
[09:47] <javaJake> Hilikus, theoretically, yes. Anacron takes care of that stuff
[09:47] <veresch> Folks, I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 and i am getting thousands of messages like this in my syslog: Oct  6 15:38:53 ubuntu2 kernel: [  450.118335]  scsi(0): [R|Z] IO update completion., does anyone know what might be causing it and if there is a way for me to turn this logging off?
[09:47] <Flannel> dbft: Ah, I see.  Well, I don't know of any apps like that.  Concievably it is doable though.  Try googling around, see what you can come up with.
[09:47] <pietro10> !urpmi riokittie
[09:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about urpmi riokittie - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:47] <Hilikus> javaJake ok, thanks
[09:47] <sg1cat> rexy_:  yup.  Nothing's muted.  Vols are all at max (double checked the physical vol, too)
[09:47] <latnel> Recoucou
[09:47] <dbft> i'm googling now ,was just hoping someone here would know - its possible on windows
[09:47] <pietro10> !urpmi > riokittie
[09:47] <ciprian> "sudo apt-get openssh-server" will not work... any suggestions?
[09:47] <pietro10> !urpmi
[09:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about urpmi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:48] <Flannel> dbft: its definately possible.  The question is has anyone done it yet.
[09:48] <pietro10> "urpmi is the command-line package management tool used by the Mandriva Linux distribution."
[09:48] <Snille> !avahi
[09:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avahi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:48] <riotkittie> pietro10: urpmi isnt relevant to ubuntu. it's a mandriva something-or-other. i'm trying to figure out what as that guy wants a ubuntu equivalent :P
[09:48] <pietro10> http://www.urpmi.org/
[09:48] <javaJake> dbft, you'd have to find something that would output a video to /dev/video or /dev/video2
[09:48] <jos1> Really Need Advice:  Installed Truecrypt. Now users can't access samba through the default username and password. In fact shares aren't even showing up. Anyone?
[09:48] <rexy_> sg1cat: hmm well the drivers appear to be working, or you would've seen some errors, so not sure what's going wrong then
[09:48] <Flannel> pietro10: This isn't a mandriva channel, why would we need that information?
[09:48] <dbft> is that were the webcam outputs to, javaJake?
[09:48] <rexy_> jos1: can samba even read the encrypted volumes?
[09:48] <pietro10> someone asked, I think they have the answer now
[09:48] <jrib> ciprian: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[09:48] <javaJake> dbft, yes
[09:48] <riotkittie> Flannel: some guy wanted a urpmi equiv.
[09:48] <dbft> hmm
[09:48] <veresch> Folks, I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 and i am getting thousands of messages like this in my syslog: Oct  6 15:38:53 ubuntu2 kernel: [  450.118335]  scsi(0): [R|Z] IO update completion., does anyone know what might be causing it and if ther eis a way for me to turn this logging off?
[09:49] <sg1cat> rexy_:  Might it be some kind of linking problem?  The 2.6.17-10 kernel was the one I started with after a fresh install, all subsequent kernels came iwth the ubuntu upgrades.
[09:49] <pietro10> People had problems with GRUB on Plan 9: http://9fans.net/archive/2006/08/119
[09:49] <jos1> Samba isn't directed to even look at encrypted volumes right now
[09:49] <rexy_> sg1cat: you would have seen an error then too
[09:49] <Heston> do I really need a 2 gig root partition if im using a seperate partition for /tmp /var /usr and /home?  Apearently 256 megs wasnt enough
[09:49] <pietro10> Does anyone know anything about this or how to actually add a partition to GRUB?
[09:49] <jos1> It sees the default print$ that is set up in smb.conf
[09:55] <jos1> But not the shares that I had there previously
[09:55] <jos1> smbclient -L doesn't list them
[09:55] <_0xf> http://pastebin.com/m3741e40c
[09:55] <dbft> any idea anything that will do that javaJake?
[09:55] <_0xf> http://pastebin.com/m3741e40c
[09:55] <Flannel> Heston: You won't need 2GB no, but you (obviously) need more than 256mb.
[09:55] <Zenerek> another question, do later versions of ubuntu, those after dapper, support hardwareraid, i have been using raid cards basically since my first machine's it's kinda blows that i cannot get hardwaree raid to work
[09:55] <sg1cat> rexy_: guessing the bulletin board should be my next stop?

[09:55] <ubuntu_> In action 4. when i type what it says to do, it says "File not found", and the ubuntu partition is mounted, what can i do ?
[09:55] <veresch> Folks, I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 and i am getting thousands of messages like this in my syslog: Oct  6 15:38:53 ubuntu2 kernel: [  450.118335]  scsi(0): [R|Z] IO update completion., does anyone know what might be causing it and if ther eis a way for me to turn this logging off? Or is this not the right channel to ask this sort of question?
[09:55] <Flannel> _0xf: Alright, you shoudl be good.  Try this: `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install build-essential`
[09:55] <pietro10> I think we need to get organized, I can't follow!!
[09:55] <heartsblood> if i'm using nvidia twinview how do I configure a different desktop image on each display?
[09:55] <jos1> Here's the question then: Why would smbclient -L not see shares that are listed in smb.conf correctly
[09:55] <_0xf> ok 1 sec
[09:55] <ubuntu_> pietro10 me again :-) can u help me ?
[09:55] <pietro10> Does anyone still know how to get Plan 9 working with either GRUB or LILO?
[09:55] <pietro10> ubuntu_ yes
[09:55] <ubuntu_> In the url:     https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#head-09167948173503db5923da717a106f0c3aac1cd2
[09:55] <ubuntu_> In action 4. when i type what it says to do, it says "File not found", and the ubuntu partition is mounted, what can i do ?
[09:55] <ubuntu_> this is the problem pietro10
[09:55] <pietro10> !grub > ubuntu_
[09:55] <_0xf> connecting to security
[09:55] <pietro10> you should have a message from ubotu with some links
[09:55] <_0xf> ty
[09:55] <pietro10> they are:
[09:55] <pietro10> !grub
[09:55] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:55] <rexy> pietro10: either use grub or lilo to boot of the volume your plan 9 is on
[09:55] <pietro10> OK, so how do I either add Plan 9 to GRUB or get LILO?
[09:55] <rexy> exactly like you would boot windows xp and alike
[09:55] <Flannel> !repeat | pietro10
[09:55] <ubotu> pietro10: 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
[09:55] <ubuntu_> k, i will try with other methods

[09:55] <rathel> How do I go through folders and subfolder looking for specific files and copy them? I know how to remove find . -name name -print0 | xargs -0 rm How would you copy? Thanks.
[09:55] <spoown> Hello all, does someone use aesutil ?
[09:55] <ubuntu_> Flannel I don't know, how can i do it ?
[09:55] <veresch> Ok, yes i did search all i could before coming here
[09:55] <rexy> pietro10: i have no idea what plan 9 uses. Here is what i would try, lets say your install is on /dev/sda1, you install the plan 9 bootloader to /dev/sda1, and grub to /dev/sda, then you tell grub to boot the /dev/sda1 partition, the syntax should be the same as when booting xp since you just tell grub to boot that volume where it will pickup the bootloader from that partition(ie winxp or plan 9 in your case)
[09:55] <Flannel> ubuntu_: Which partition is your / (root partition?) and do you have a separate /boot partition?
[09:55] <veresch> My next step is to try Fedora or previous version of ubuntu
[09:55] <ubuntu_> Flannel im on the live cd, but my / is on hda1
[09:55] <usser> rathel: find is complex man it theres something like exec cp
[09:55] <Flannel> ubuntu_: And do you have a /boot?
[09:55] <Hema1> does anyone know where I can find a linux game like simcity
[09:55] <veresch> I saw that folks were leaving the chat and coming in so i thought i send the question again for the new commers...
[09:55] <dbft> hmm anyone think mplayer might be able to do it?
[09:55] <dbft> mplayer a.avi > /dev/video /
[09:55] <dbft> ?
[09:55] <ubuntu_> Flannel yes, i have a /boot there (hda1) but it doesnt work, windows xp overwrite it
[09:56] <pietro10> 1,238 members and counting - I'm getting lost and confused but I'll try what everyone (including ubotu) told me and I'll come back with the results........
[09:56] <acoustyk> im trying to access my windows NTFS drive but i can't find it (probably b/c it's not mounted)
[09:56] <Flannel> ubuntu_: Ah, windows overwrote hda1?
[09:56] <acoustyk> how would I go about doing that
[09:56] <floppyears> hi
[09:56] <ubuntu_> Flannel no, i didnt lost my old data, but it overwrite the boot (it boots to windows, not GRUB)
[09:56] <floppyears> how can I get a regular user to run /etc/init.d/gdm restart ?
[09:56] <ubuntu_> i think the correct name is MBR
[09:57] <quittt> how do I mount a ISO?
[09:57] <Flannel> ubuntu_: right, that's not the same as /boot.  So, what command are you doing that gives you errors?
[09:57] <quittt> how do I mount a ISO?
[09:57] <Flannel> !iso | quittt
[09:57] <ubotu> quittt: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[09:57] <floppyears> anybody ?
[09:57] <dbft> i give up
[09:57] <dbft> i think its impossible
[09:57] <dbft> :(
[09:57] <kreib> add it to /etc/sudoers ?

[09:57] <ubuntu_> In action 4. when i type what it says to do, it says "File not found", and the ubuntu partition is mounted, what can i do ?
[09:57] <Mr_Giraffe> !ralink
[09:57] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:58] <rexy_> hmm why does ubuntu create a wifi0-00 and ath0 device?
[09:58] <ubuntu_> its this what i said, Flannel
[09:58] <Flannel> ubuntu_: Option 4?  Oh, the part above the link is what you're actually doing? (the 'quick start'?)
[09:58] <Flannel> ubuntu_: The section you linked to has no numbers
[09:59] <ubuntu_> no, im doing the 4th step of the "Using the Desktop/LiveCD while preserving Windows Bootloader"
[09:59] <ciprian> how can I view currently installed programms on my server instalation of ubuntu
[09:59] <Flannel> ubuntu_: why do you want to preserve the windows bootloader?
[09:59] <ubuntu_> someone here told me to do this, do you think its better to do the quickstart ?
[09:59] <orudie> when is 7.10 coming out?
[09:59] <Flannel> ubuntu_: Unless you've got a reason why you need to, overwriting the windows bootloader is better
[09:59] <kreib> in 12 days
[10:00] <orudie> k
[10:00] <orudie> good
[10:00] <javaJake> dbft, lemme see here...
[10:00] <ubuntu_> Flannel even if i do this, i can still boot Windows ?
[10:00] <dbft> cool javaJake :)
[10:00] <Flannel> ubuntu_: yep
[10:00] <ubuntu_> Flannel OK, thank you i'll try it :)
[10:01] <javaJake> Flannel, ubuntu_, I'm the one who said to preserve the windows bootloader...
[10:01] <javaJake> Whoops
[10:01] <javaJake> :)
[10:01] <quittt> how do I mount a ISO?
[10:01] <ubuntu_> javaJake yes, sorry i don't have a good memory for names :P
[10:01] <heartsblood> is it possible for gdm to recognize twinview screens and manipulate them independantly?
[10:02] <Hema1> does anyone know where I can find a linux game like simcity
[10:02] <Flannel> quittt: You were already answered: sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>
[10:02] <javaJake> dbft, I don't believe it... I think I just figured it out...
[10:02] <quittt> it asks me about the filesystem
[10:02] <BobSapp> Hello id like to do some opengl development whats the package i need to install
[10:02] <heartsblood> Hema1: like a port or a clone?
[10:02] <dbft> :o javaJake?
[10:03] <Hema1> heartsblood: Im not sure what each mean...just some sort of city bulding game for linux
[10:03] <jeroen_> hehe i;m fully on wifi:) this is cool
[10:03] <rexy_> gratz
[10:03] <javaJake> dbft, mplayer with driver v4l or v4l2... lemme look at this some more
[10:03] <dbft> ok
[10:03] <quittt> Flannel, it asks me about system file type
[10:03] <dbft> thanks for trying btw :)
[10:03] <Flannel> quittt: its either iso9660 or udf, most likely the former.  add it with -t [fstype]  although, it shouldve been detected automatically
[10:04] <rexy_> anyone know why ubuntu makes an ath0 and wifi0 network device? only one has an ip
[10:04] <heartsblood> Hema1: port means the game has been redisgned to work on OS xyz, a clone means the game is identical to the original but made for a different reason
[10:04] <jeroen_> where's mrObvious?
[10:05] <Hema1> heartsblood: port then I guess
[10:05] <heartsblood> Hema1: as for simscity, i'm almost possitive there was a port made but i'm not 100% sure.
[10:05] <sahl> bu_sahl
[10:05] <heartsblood> Hema1: i'll check a few of my sources
[10:06] <heartsblood> Hema1: heh apt-cache wins again, i've never used it but open up a term and type sudo apt-get install opencity
[10:06] <heartsblood> Hema1: might be what your looking for
[10:06] <rexy_> heartsblood: freecity?
[10:07] <Hema1> heartsblood: ok thanks ill try that
[10:07] <heartsblood> rexy_: If it's not in apt I didn't look that far :)
[10:07] <jeroen_> hey mrobvious
[10:07] <jeroen_> working like a charm here!
[10:07] <javaJake> dbft, augh, nvm
[10:07] <dbft> aww
[10:07] <rexy_> heartsblood: i cant see why it shouldnt be, maybe it's spelled slightly differently
[10:07] <javaJake> dbft, the drivers mentioned are for input only
[10:07] <ubuntu_> I'm leaving, I looks like it worked
[10:07] <dbft> thanks anyway

[10:09] <detra> hi ... Last night I was in here asking for any ideas on how to install my nvidia card ... Everytime I do how have to fight in the terminal cause it says no displays ... I was told !nvidia ... and same thing happened ... any other ideaas ?

[10:10] <detra> javaJake, geforce 7600 gs
[10:10] <Plouj> hi
[10:10] <dbft> thanks anyway though, i guess i'll leave it for now :P

[10:10] <Sonicadvance1> Okay here. I have 3 partitions. sda1 is 10GB and is set to / and is the bootable partition. sda3 is 138GB and is set to /home. and sda3 is the swap at 1GB.What I need to do. Is expand the partition set to / to 20GB as it's full. What is the Best way of doing this?
[10:10] <adrien> xconf didn't work and I'm on irssi right now, so I don't know what else was suggested.
[10:10] <detra> javaJake, I keep follow the guides on the internet ... But they all screw it up ...
[10:10] <heartsblood> if I need to ask specific questions about gdm where should I go?
[10:11] <flokuehn> !nvidia
[10:11] <rexy_> adrien: you could try apt-get autoclean to remove old package downloads?
[10:11] <navets> MrObvious you here?
[10:11] <rexy_> not sure about resizing ext3 partitions
[10:11] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:11] <javaJake> detra, ah, yes, I always avoid the binary drivers
[10:12] <detra> javaJake, so what can you recommend ?
[10:12] <adrien> rexy_: The exact problem is, I'm set on vga driver, I need to detect what driver this card uses.
[10:12] <MasterShrek> adrien, what card is it?
[10:12] <rexy_> adrien: lspci can tell you more, but the vesa driver should do some decent resolutions?
[10:12] <detra> javaJake, I've tried so many times and everytime I have to either reinstall or fight with xserver-xorg

[10:13] <javaJake> detra, that looks interesting
[10:13] <flokuehn> detra: what exactley is your problem?

[10:14] <flokuehn> javaJake: ah ok
[10:14] <javaJake> !automatix
[10:14] <ubotu> 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.

[10:14] <MasterShrek> !automatix | _Christian
[10:14] <ubotu> _Christian: please see above
[10:14] <adrien> MasterShrek: What will the driver name be so I can set it in xorg.conf?
[10:14] <detra> flokuehn, My prob is that every single time I install the nvidia driver and restart x ... It says and error happened and it complains about that thing ... screens found but no whatever ...
[10:14] <javaJake> _Christian, Automatix is not necessary, in fact, most things you can do easily on your own
[10:14] <javaJake> _Christian, what do you want to do that Automatix could do?
[10:14] <MasterShrek> adrien, im not sure, lemme find out for you
[10:14] <_Christian> but autmoatix have more thinks

[10:15] <adrien> MasterShrek: nm, it said wrong chipset deteced on apt-get
[10:15] <javaJake> _Christian, trust me, you don't need it. :)
[10:15] <_Christian> but i need some apliccations
[10:15] <flokuehn> detra: i mentioned above that i have an geforce 7600 gt an i installed the drivers the debian way and all works fine
[10:15] <asprofridis> hi to all

[10:16] <HealthyElijah> aby gutsy developers in da house?
[10:16] <asprofridis> any GREEK to ask something?????
[10:16] <HealthyElijah> any
[10:16] <javaJake> !greek
[10:16] <ubotu> #ubuntu-gr  #kubuntu-gr     /  #ubuntu-gr kai #kubuntu-gr gia Ellhnes xrhstes
[10:16] <dweez_> MasterShrek: is that just removing permissions from gdm to start up?
[10:16] <detra> flokuehn, Now Im trying that envy thing ...
[10:16] <adrien> MasterShrek:Says I've gotthe latest on that one.
[10:16] <MasterShrek> dweez, yes, just making it not executeable
[10:16] <flokuehn> detra: ok
[10:17] <asprofridis> thx man
[10:17] <flokuehn> detra: it is the better way
[10:17] <javaJake> dweez, if you want to temporarily disable GUI, and go into a root terminal, add single onto the end of the kernel line in GRUB startup
[10:17] <flokuehn> detra: but if you still have the same problem after that envy thing
[10:17] <dweez_> javaJake: just the word "single"?
[10:17] <javaJake> dweez, yep
[10:17] <flokuehn> detra: i can tell you the debian way
[10:17] <HealthyElijah> will flash be installed by default in the new gutsy gibbons release?
[10:17] <larson9999> yeah! i finally found a modded playstation at the goodwill! :)
[10:17] <javaJake> dweez_, you know how to do that, right?
[10:17] <detra> ok .. thx ...
[10:17] <dweez_> see, after the latest Gutsy upgrade, my gui is fubar'd right
[10:18] <MasterShrek> adrien, im not sure what driver you should use, maybe i855 or intel
[10:18] <javaJake> HealthyElijah, if it isn't, it's simple to install
[10:18] <dweez_> javaJake: yeah, at grub you can modify the line
[10:18] <adrien> Mastershrek: i'll try.
[10:18] <javaJake> dweez_, ok, good. ;)
[10:18] <detra> flokuehn, How long are you gonna be online ?
[10:18] <javaJake> HealthyElijah, you can't mess it up, literally.
[10:18] <HealthyElijah> java - i know but its just extra crap that really should already be done, i mean.. who doesnt need flash?
[10:18] <flokuehn> detra: you can write me an email
[10:18] <javaJake> flokuehn, be careful how you answer. ;D
[10:18] <dweez_> see, after the latest Gutsy upgrade, my gui is fubar'd...last time this did this I had to reinstall the nvidia driver from command line
[10:18] <flokuehn> javaJake: ;)
[10:18] <Kazero> Quickie: Name if a good extracter for RAR files with a GUI?
[10:19] <detra> flokuehn, sure ... that would be better ... cause it often take me many hours getting it to work ...
[10:19] <dweez_> anyway, I'll give it a try
[10:19] <flokuehn> detra: maybe you can write me an email
[10:19] <rexy_> unrar with the gnome package manager
[10:19] <HealthyElijah> Kazero: wINrAR
[10:19] <mzuverink> I am trying to get gnome not to open rhythmbox when I hit the button on my laptop remote, I want it to open amarok.  How do I do this?
[10:19] <flokuehn> detra: no problem
[10:19] <Pirate_Hunter> how do i get to ubuntu offtopic channel?
[10:19] <jddg520> Hey I tried to installl ubuntu and after the first loading barr was done a blue screen with lines appeared and after that nothing happened... It just kept showing that any know the problem...
[10:19] <flokuehn> detra: i'll msg you
[10:19] <esoterik> mzu - right click the file you want, select open with other app, and set to amarok
[10:19] <javaJake> dweez_, OK, try replacing "nv" or "nvidia" driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf with "vesa" instead (and don't forget to comment out any options, since they are probably nv or nvidia only)
[10:19] <adrien> MasterShrek: What other suggestion did you have? I tried i855, but got nothing.
[10:19] <HealthyElijah> Pirate: hit / followed by join and then space and then #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:19] <rexy_> mzuverink: under preffered applications you can select amarok instead of rhythembox
[10:20] <ubuntu_> hi again
[10:20] <javaJake> Pirate_Hunter, type /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:20] <Pirate_Hunter> HealthyElijah: >:)
[10:20] <MasterShrek> i dunno for sure adrien, i dont have an intel card
[10:20] <mzuverink> esoterik, that oply changes the open w/ dialogue, not the action of a remote button.  rexy_ thanks
[10:20] <ubuntu_> hmmm can someone help me again ? when i rebooted grub worked but the system didnt work
[10:20] <adrien> MasterShrek: Thanks for your help. I'm gonna search about on lynx then
[10:20] <flokuehn> detra: you could also ask dpkg in the debian channel about the nvidia one-liner
[10:21] <ubuntu_> when ubuntu boot, it said about hard drive errors and fsck
[10:21] <MasterShrek> adrien, u can use the vesa driver to get a gui prolly
[10:21] <detra> flokuehn, ok ????
[10:21] <Kazero> HealthyElijah: Winrar for linux?
[10:21] <adrien> MasterShrek: When I tried vesa, it got me nothing. I took that as a generally bad sign.
[10:21] <ferronica> can i use blackbox in ubuntu 7.04 GNOME ?
[10:22] <ferronica> i want to remove GNOME
[10:22] <MasterShrek> adrien, yea id say, lspci -vv should give you more information about what card i tis
[10:22] <mzuverink> rexy_, `under pref apps I have no listing for any thing other than email app, browser and terminal
[10:22] <ferronica> is it possible to do ?
[10:22] <detra> flokuehn, Im gonna try this first ... and if it doesn't work Im gonna come back as soon as possible ...
[10:22] <jddg520> I need some help with installing after the first loading bar was done for installing it showed a bluescreen with flashing black bars....Please
[10:22] <javaJake> ubuntu_, OK, boot into the LiveCD, and run fsck -f /dev/sda*
[10:22] <rexy_> mzuverink: it has tabs i think?
[10:22] <HealthyElijah> Is the reason flash is not included in ubuntu by default because it isnt opensource?
[10:22] <javaJake> ubuntu_, basically, your hard drive is corrupted
[10:22] <ubuntu_> javaJake well i did this
[10:22] <flokuehn> detra: ok. no problem
[10:22] <MasterShrek> HealthyElijah, yes
[10:22] <flokuehn> iam online
[10:22] <javaJake> ubuntu_, oh, OK
[10:22] <ubuntu_> javaJake but without the livecd
[10:23] <javaJake> ubuntu_, NOT good
[10:23] <HealthyElijah> Mastershrek: Then why dont they include teh opensource flash
[10:23] <ubuntu_> javaJake and now it says about a problem in /bin/sh
[10:23] <jareno1818>  Hey!
[10:23] <javaJake> ubuntu_, never ever run fsck on a partition that's mounted
[10:23] <jareno1818>  Hey!
[10:23] <jareno1818>  Hey!
[10:23] <jareno1818>  Hey!

[10:23] <MasterShrek> HealthyElijah, because its not really perfected yet
[10:23] <MasterShrek> or so i hear, i havent used it
[10:23] <extern> my computer crashes on 64 bit splash booting screen, but 32 bit version boots fine. to run ubuntu, I have to add "nosplash" option for my computer. is this bug known?
[10:23] <ubuntu_> javaJake Doesn't ubuntu (the livecd) have a program that can repair that partition on the disk ?
[10:24] <HealthyElijah> MasterShrek: Do you know how far off perfection is?
[10:24] <mzuverink> rexy_, internet (browser and mail reader), and system(terminal type), nothing else
[10:24] <MasterShrek> HealthyElijah, no idea, i dont use it
[10:24] <jddg520>  I need some help with installing after the first loading bar was done for installing it showed a bluescreen with flashing black bars....Please

[10:24] <javaJake> ubuntu_, oh, possibly!
[10:24] <javaJake> ubuntu_, I've never used it before
[10:24] <HealthyElijah> MasterShrek: You don't use flash at all?
[10:24] <javaJake> ubuntu_, give it a try
[10:24] <floitting> i have toshiba tocra 8100, which i dont know how to get into bios. i have external dvd-drive which isnt detected during the boot, and i need to , to get to install an OS
[10:24] <adrien> MasterShrek: It says, 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82810 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller]  (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [VGA] )
[10:24] <rexy_> mzuverink: then i dont know, thought the option was in there for the media player too
[10:25] <jddg520> Sorry I wasn't aware of that it is my first time here
[10:25] <ubuntu_> javaJake what can possibly be this program ? :P
[10:25] <pipatron> floitting: press escape or f1 a lot when booting
[10:25] <rhalff> what is the right channel to talk about unstable ?
[10:25] <pipatron> rhalff: #ubuntu+1 I think
[10:25] <javaJake> ubuntu_, probably a nice easy way to scan your hard drives
[10:25] <erUSUL> |gutsy | rhalff
[10:25] <floitting> ok..thanks, i try piptaron... not sure if i tried those yet
[10:25] <javaJake> !gutsy | rhalff
[10:25] <erUSUL> !gutsy | rhalff
[10:25] <ubotu> rhalff: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[10:25] <javaJake> :)
[10:25] <pipatron> floitting: I think I've got a tecra 8100 at work :)
[10:25] <MasterShrek> adrien, that should help you to find out info on that card, 82810
[10:25] <desertc> Hello - I am having problems with Launchpad.  I cannot create my personal wiki -- it errors and says I don't have permissions.
[10:25] <rhalff> pipatron ah thanks
[10:25] <ubuntu_> javaJake hmm, what about installing ubuntu in the partition that ubuntu is installed
[10:26] <ubuntu_> will the installer import the data ?
[10:26] <mzuverink> rexy_, thought so at one time too,  though now it looks as if we are forced to use RB as default.  There's gotta be a gconfig command to change it, I was hoping someone here would
[10:26] <techjim> I have utorrent working w/ WINE but i'm going to use a native or java tracker.  what do you guys suggest?
[10:26] <pipatron> Ok, now I've helped two poor guys, now you have to help me
[10:26] <MasterShrek> techjim, ktorrent
[10:26] <floitting> =)
[10:26] <mzuverink> rexy_, know
[10:26] <rexy_> mzuverink: there is, but i cant tell you where
[10:26] <jddg520> It is possible to install when I am already booted up
[10:26] <pipatron> I'm looking for a way to do like this in a script:  "command `gnome-file-dialogue`"
[10:27] <mzuverink> rexy_, im digging in configuration editor now, its gotta be there
[10:27] <floitting> i cant help with that... so i go try to enter bios -> =)
[10:27] <javaJake> ubuntu_, good idea
[10:27] <pipatron> Obviously, the gnome-file-dialogue does not exist, but is there a tool like that, that will pop up the default file dialogue and return the file that the user chose?
[10:27] <javaJake> ubuntu_, be sure to format everything. Also, use the manual partition tool, the automatic will overwrite windows
[10:28] <ubuntu_> javaJake ok, thanks for help, im leaving now
[10:28] <preaction> pipatron, not that i'm aware of. most likely you're going to have to learn a programming language. you might be able to write a short perl/python script and put it in your shell script
[10:28] <extern> is there any official bug database for ubuntu?
[10:28] <pipatron> preaction: I'm a software engineer so I don't need to learn a language ;)
[10:28] <lamego> ex0r, launchpad.net
[10:29] <BobSapp> pipatron: IDK but have u tried dcop?
[10:29] <pipatron> preaction: I just assumed such an app did already exist since it did on my amiga 15 years ago... would be a nice thing to have
[10:29] <pipatron> BobSapp: Haven't tried, what's that
[10:30] <BobSapp> actually dcop is some kind of remote procedure call interface
[10:30] <pipatron> BobSapp: Doesn't seem to have anything to do with what I was looking for here
[10:30] <Mishaal> is Ubuntu 7.10 released ??
[10:30] <rexy_> nope
[10:30] <pipatron> Mishaal: Mid october I think
[10:31] <Mishaal> :)
[10:31] <desertc> Can you help with problems with the Ubuntu Launchpad site, or no?  I cannot create my personal wiki -- it errors and says I don't have permissions.

[10:32] <oliver_g_> pipatron: you mean something like "zenity --file-selection"?
[10:32] <skar> hi, how do i run kde inside a second X session, i can run "startx -- :1" for second X, but it also runs gnome, how do i change the X to run kdm for this X? is there a cmd line switch?
[10:33] <BobSapp> pipatron: sorry dcop is for kde, try dbus.
[10:33] <pipatron> oliver_g_: Thanks!
[10:33] <pipatron> oliver_g_: I mean exactly like that :)
[10:33] <Bauldrick> I can no longer stream .avi file via samba to mplayer - anyone know why?
[10:33] <Kenny3> do i hav to clean up my system some time? u know, like on windows defrag and registry cleaning and that stuff...
[10:33] <ech0dish> no i told you it was at http://stores.ebay.com/Houston-CompCycle
[10:33] <pipatron> Kenny3: No
[10:33] <BobSapp> in kde i could get/return data from kde apps usning dcop from the command line
[10:33] <pipatron> Kenny3: You might want to run "sudo apt-get autoremove" sometimes
[10:34] <BobSapp> "in theory" you might be able to call something like getFileDialogue through dbus on gnome to return the filename
[10:34] <Kenny3> pipatron: whats that? and how often? once week?
[10:34] <BobSapp> of course you would need a program to be running already.
[10:34] <floppyears> ok I did something really stupid
[10:34] <oliver_g_> heh... my boss does such a "system check" every month on his computer... looks at all ~/. -files and decides whether they are important :-D
[10:34] <adrien> MasterShrek: I love you man! :) And this community. Found a Fiesty Fawn article that told me to use sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[10:34] <floppyears>  locked myself out of sudo
[10:34] <Lr5_> Anyone knows how to connect to internet using laptop and a mobile phone? I only found instructions when using bluetooth, but my laptop doesn't support it as far as I know
[10:35] <adrien> Now I'm running 1200x1024
[10:35] <floppyears> is there another way to get it back besides chrooting into the ubuntu installation ?
[10:35] <Lr5_> Laptop: Thinkpad t21, phone: Nokia e61i
[10:35] <MasterShrek> adrien, yea i coulda told u that, didnt think about it
[10:35] <ech0dish> sudo apt-get remove *
[10:36] <jeroen_> dudes, how do I install w32 codecs?
[10:36] <floppyears> anybody ?
[10:36] <Lr5_> The phone can be connected to computer using usb cable, so it probably should go that way
[10:36] <adrien> well, thanks anyway /wave
[10:36] <jeroen_> I wanna listen to some audio streams
[10:36] <Lr5_> !w32codecs
[10:36] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[10:36] <milardovich> nobody knows how can i convert .cda files to .mp3?
[10:36] <jeroen_> but they are in windows media format
[10:36] <Lr5_> !w32codecs | jeroen_
[10:36] <ubotu> jeroen_: please see above
[10:36] <oliver_g_> milardovich: where did you get the .cda files?
[10:36] <Lr5_> jeroen_: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[10:36] <pipatron> Kenny3: You can do it once every month or so, but it won't really speed up your computer.
[10:37] <pipatron> Kenny3: It might free up some megabyte of data that's not used
[10:38] <Kenny3> i hav amd 64 bit, but i heard there are problems using 64bit os?
[10:38] <munk__> can somebody please please help me update my kernel ?
[10:38] <BobSapp> O_O
[10:38] <DoYouKnow> Kenny3, not aware of any problems other than software support for that hardware
[10:38] <oliver_g_> milardovich: if the .cda files are from copying a cd under windows, you can't convert them to mp3 i think
[10:38] <lamego> Kenny3, there are no problems, there are programs which do not have 64 bits versions, but on most cases you can work around that
[10:38] <DoYouKnow> mIRC for example... don't think that has a 64-bit version yet
[10:39] <lamego> uh, using mirc on Ubuntu is a 64 bits problem ?
[10:39] <DoYouKnow> no, that's a windows application
[10:39] <Kenny3> lamego: if i download a repo is this workin for 64bit then?
[10:39] <DoYouKnow> it's a problem no matter what OS you choose
[10:39] <lamego> DoYouKnow, this is the Ubuntu support channel :)
[10:39] <DoYouKnow> software support for the hardware
[10:39] <dxdt> Kenny3: I'm running amd64 right now and the biggest problem is that flash doesn't work with 64 bit ffox so you have to downgrade to 32 bit firefox or use Gnash(which is what I"m doing)
[10:40] <lamego> Kenny3, yes, you have 64 bits repositories
[10:40] <lamego> dxdt, that is not precise, you can use the nspluginwrapper, a tooll which allows to use the flash plugin with a 64 bits firefox
[10:40] <DoYouKnow> dxdt, I am using nspluginwrapper on ubuntu feisty and it works fine
[10:40] <Kenny3> dxdt: i use opera, did u check flash there?
[10:40] <milardovich> oliver_g thankz yes, its possible, with k3b :D
[10:41] <Bauldrick> why can i no longer stream my video files over samba to mplayer?
[10:41] <oliver_g_> milardovich: oh ok then :-) i confused the .cda files then
[10:41] <iami> hello
[10:42] <iami> my friend
[10:42] <iami> s
[10:42] <iami> I have question, how do I find the location of my running kernal?
[10:42] <milardovich> :D
[10:42] <lamego> iami, you mean, you want to know the version ?
[10:42] <lamego> iamchris, uname -a
[10:42] <iami> lamego: yes, I have done that command
[10:42] <iami> but when I try to correct my vmware
[10:42] <iami> it still fails to find the needed file
[10:43] <iami> it looks in folder build
[10:43] <iami> I dunno what is wrong :[
[10:43] <iami> it then fails
[10:43] <erUSUL> iami: try this 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)'
[10:43] <desertc> Can you help with problems with the Ubuntu Launchpad site, or no?  I cannot create my personal wiki -- it errors and says I don't have permissions.
[10:43] <lamego> iamchris, vmware requires the linux kernel headers
[10:43] <erUSUL> !enter | iami
[10:43] <Kenny3> is there posssibility to boot windows xp and ubuntu but only work in one of them and be able to change faster to other os then by rebooting?
[10:43] <ubotu> iami: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:43] <jeroen_> ok gonna do that some other time
[10:44] <JEFFmasterFlex> Kenny3:  install windows or ubuntu in VMWare or Virtualbox
[10:44] <iami> ah
[10:44] <iami> is the newest kernel ubuntu runs stable the 2.6.20-16?
[10:44] <iami> stable and is at the repositories, I mean*
[10:45] <lamego> Kenny3, well, that is the typical duall boot config, the "fast" switching is relative, it is a reboot
[10:45] <iami> ???
[10:45] <erUSUL> iami: yes,afaics
[10:45] <Kenny3> JEFFmasterFlex: i know about that, but its affecting speed-...
[10:45] <iami> erUSUL: what is USUL?
[10:45] <lamego> iami, you need the headers, not only the kernel
[10:45] <erUSUL> iami: yes as far as i can see
[10:45] <JEFFmasterFlex> Kenny3:  can't have your cake and eat it too... at least not yet at this point
[10:45] <erUSUL> iami: use the command i gave to install the 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)' for your running kernel
[10:45] <ruif13> hi
[10:46] <iami> lamego: I am installing the headers now :)
[10:46] <iami> I will tell you all if it functions after.
[10:46] <mzuverink> any Idea when medibuntu gusty repos and cononical commercial repos for gusty will be available?
[10:46] <Kenny3> JEFFmasterFlex:  what cake?
[10:46] <ruif13> anyone have a link off tutorial to install flash plugin in firefox in ubuntu64
[10:46] <ruif13> ?
[10:46] <ruif13> please
[10:47] <erUSUL> !flash64 > ruif13
[10:47] <mzuverink> or is there a way to use the feisty ones for gusty?
[10:47] <milardovich> oliver_g if u need to convert the cda to mp3 (some day..) type this: sudo apt-get install lame, on kubuntu, and then run K3B :D

[10:51] <slicks_mage> ok 1sec hold on i will
[10:51] <arnath> i was always told it wasnt "wise" to run kde programs on gnome & vica versa
[10:51] <arnath> old wives tale is it? :D

[10:54] <Kenny3> JEFFmasterFlex: both go into memory to boot, start their programs and stuff and then one goes outa ram into hd, wouldnt this work?
[10:54] <Kagar> How do I save my Crontab jobs?
[10:54] <sinX_> hasn't kiba stopped development?
[10:54] <idioterna> re... what package includes gimp's development headers?
[10:54] <idioterna> gimp-dev doesn't exist
[10:54] <Kagar> I've tried ctrl-c to see if that svaed it, it doesn't seem to work.
[10:54] <quaal> is there a program that i could run a pdf ebook through and have it output a voice reading in mp3 format or something
[10:54] <slicks_mage> erusul: ut oh i searched for p/n and s/n and both together and no match :\ wut now?
[10:54] <sinX_> I would go with AWN they're still in dev
[10:54] <DoYouKnow> sinX_, are there any replacements?
[10:54] <arnath> hmm, installation of amarok failed :|
[10:55] <Kazero> So any word on some new ati linux drivers? Id love to have full support for my X1300 mobile.
[10:55] <JEFFmasterFlex> Kenny3: no, this wouldn't work. unless you has at least 4 GB's of ram or more. it's not even possible at this point, but most computers don't have the ram to do that
[10:55] <stefg> Kagar: crontab -e , and i might suggest to read the friendly man-page :-)
[10:55] <erUSUL> slicks_mage: dunno if you can not boot from the cd you can try other forms of install
[10:55] <sinX_> http://awn.wetpaint.com/page/Ubuntu+Feisty+Repository?t=anon
[10:55] <erUSUL> ubotu tell slicks_mage about install | slicks_mage see priv msg from ubotu
[10:55] <slicks_mage> ok
[10:55] <Kagar> stefg - Yeah, I'm in my crontab -e I just don't know how to exit / save it.
[10:56] <JEFFmasterFlex> Kenny3:  think about it, you always have an entire operating system in RAM, then you use the remaining ram to run whichever operating system you are pesently using
[10:56] <arnath> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39801/ <- i get that when trying to isntall amarok
[10:56] <sinX_> doyouknow: try that link http://awn.wetpaint.com/page/Ubuntu+Feisty+Repository?t=anon
[10:56] <stefg> Kagar: crontad -e calls the system editor. just save, crontab odoes a check, that's it
[10:56] <stefg> Kagar: just like editing a text file
[10:57] <Kagar> I'm new to the command line, so not sure how to save via command line.
[10:57] <Kagar> I'm using it on a unix system
[10:57] <Kenny3> JEFFmasterFlex: alright
[10:57] <erUSUL> Kagar: which editor?
[10:57] <JEFFmasterFlex> arnath:  might want to checkout which repos you have enabled, it's trying to look for the kdelibs needed to run amarok but cannot them
[10:57] <Kagar> erUSUl - I think it's VIM, but not sure..
[10:57] <heartsblood> does anybody know of a program that will manage independant desktop images in gdm (twinview) or do I have to mux the images together in the combined desktop resolution?
[10:58] <_0xf> how do u enabble universe
[10:58] <stefg> Kagar: that's a question of the editor your using. if you got trapped into vim, you have to 'esc' ':save'
[10:58] <RB2> Hey everyone. Just have a quick question. I've been hunting the forums for an answer, but didn't find anything really solid. Will 7.10 support the P35 chipset? (I'm looking at an MSI MB)
[10:58] <cliffstah> hey :-) quick question that someone probably knows off the top of their head.. what would cause a video to run slow when its not fullscreen?  it was fine before..  compiz/xgl
[10:58] <arnath> JEFFmasterFlex: where can i see this and what do i need to check for/add?
[10:58] <_0xf> how do u enabble universe
[10:58] <Wolf23> Guys, i need a help?!
[10:58] <erUSUL> Kagar: in vim you need to press ESC to exit insert or append mode and then :w <enter> to writte the file
[10:59] <cliffstah> i used to be able to run it fullscreen and rotate the desktop cube and it was great, now its slows riiight down
[10:59] <JEFFmasterFlex> arnath:  can't really help you with that unfortunately, i am not actually using ubuntu right now. but it's in the settings for synaptic. look around in there
[11:00] <slicks_mage> erusul: ty but it seems like a lot of work, any easier way?
[11:00] <michaelhoward> im haveing trouble using my wireless with wpa. i have read the fourms and would like some live support, any help would be great please. thank you.
[11:00] <cliffstah> im sure its an xorg module, or something, some setting somewhere

[11:00] <arnath> JEFFmasterFlex: i seem to have all repositories activated
[11:00] <aleka> Is there any difference in quality between .ogg and .flac? is one better than the other? which format should I use to rip music for everyday use?
[11:00] <michaelhoward> if someonw want the challange pm me plase
[11:00] <erUSUL> slicks_mage: if you can not boot from the cd i do not know of a easier way

[11:01] <slicks_mage> erusul:ok ty anyway
[11:01] <pietro10> I got Plan 9 up
[11:01] <erUSUL> aleka: flac is lossless and ogg is lossy like mp3
[11:01] <Kagar> E212 Can't Open file for writing
[11:01] <rexy_> aleka: ogg is a lossy compression, flac is a lossless compression
[11:01] <pietro10> kagar: ls -l the file in Terminal
[11:02] <Kagar> so, do I need to make a crontab first?
[11:02] <Kagar> then edit it?
[11:02] <arnath> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39801/ <- anyone?
[11:02] <michaelhoward> anyone know how to use wpa for wireless? someone want a challange? please pm me.
[11:02] <pietro10> aleka: lossy = the wavelengths are compressed; you don't get the same quality back
[11:03] <pietro10> lossless = otherwise
[11:03] <erUSUL> aleka: if you decompress a flac you end up with the exact same wav you compressed with mp3 and ogg that's not true
[11:03] <stefg> Kagar: no , just crontab -e  ... see man crontab
[11:03] <aleka> erUSUL:  Does that mean that lossless compression would take up more space then?
[11:03] <brobostigon> yes
[11:03] <arnath> ay
[11:03] <pietro10> Anyway, I got plan 9 up with GRUB; I only had to rootnoverify (hd0,3) with chainloading +1
[11:03] <erUSUL> arnath: yes
[11:03] <pietro10> bye
[11:04] <redheat> hi everyone
[11:04] <arnath> erUSUL: howcome i'm not getting them? what do i need to do?
[11:04] <erUSUL> arnath: flac files are 50-60% of original size in my experience mp3 and ogg compress much more than that
[11:04] <michaelhoward> oh come on. theres got to be an expert here some where  :-D

[11:08] <riotkittie> player: did you install from the live CD? you're going to need to beat GRUB into submission.
[11:08] <huXfluX> Hello all! I've just installed Ubuntu feisty from liveCD onto a USB external drive and after reboot i got DISK BOOT FAILURE. I've set in bios frist boot device USB-HDD. What can i do?
[11:09] <riotkittie> although i'm not really familiar with error 17. hm.
[11:09] <player> riotkittie: Indeed, I installed from a CD.
[11:09] <knoppix> hi
[11:10] <Dr_willis> huXfluX,  check the forums. at one time - there was some tricks one had to do to enable booting off of a usb-hd. there were timeout issues on the disks. Had to enable a delay somewhere - i rember..  Been ages since ive seen that post/thread
[11:10] <player> I'm lucky I have a 2nd machine, but currently the first has been rendered completely useless, I'm unsure how to boot either ubuntu or XP with it.
[11:10] <aleka> arnath: yeap.. that's a negative on the sound recorder... I tested a recording for 15 Secs and no playback after I was done..
[11:10] <arnath> aleka: :s well then im out of bright ideas :<
[11:10] <stefg> huXfluX: your problem is that your BIOS swaps harddisk numbering depending on the boot medium. the external drive is hd0 whne you boot from it, but hd1 (or something) when you don't
[11:11] <amadeux> Which is the most lightweight torrent client for ubuntu?
[11:11] <oliver_g_> (whew, that was one hard remote computer fixing... first sabayon interfering in the X start, then gdm is broken, then the gdm reinstall doesn't replace the config stuff, so we have to do a purge with --force-depends, and then we break the permissions on the user dir and gdm freaks out... goodnight all - I have really earned my sleep today :)
[11:11] <Dr_willis> stefg,  aha.. i rember that in the discussion also. :) had to edit the menu.lst on the usb hd..
[11:11] <slimaq> hi why i don't have sound in pidgin?
[11:11] <erUSUL> amadeux: rtorrent ?
[11:11] <riotkittie> I want to say 17 means its pointing to the wrong partition but i'm not positive    :|
[11:11] <huXfluX> stefg: so what can i do?
[11:11] <newnickname1234> i have a question...
[11:12] <newnickname1234> I get a lot of garbage when I try to boot into ubuntu
[11:12] <player> riotkittie: Do you know how I could remove the new partition so I can boot with windows once again?
[11:12] <Dr_willis> newnickname1234,  care to be a little more clear? :)
[11:12] <newnickname1234> I "think" it happens when is does fsck
[11:13] <stefg> huXfluX: i assume grub is written to the mbr of your internal disk (and that's wrong) first you have to restore the mbr of your internal hd. is that wi n on the internal hd ?
[11:13] <newnickname1234> I have dualboot with windows
[11:13] <newnickname1234> and there is a shared FAT drive
[11:13] <huXfluX> stefg: no, i don't have any drives except for the usb one
[11:13] <riotkittie> player: if you have an XP install CD on hand, you can pop that in, enter the Recovery console and then fixmbr
[11:13] <newnickname1234> so in total, NTFS, ext3, FAT are the partitions on my computer
[11:14] <player> riotkittie: I'm afraid I do not :(
[11:14] <stefg> huXfluX: so there is no internal drive? what error do you get ?
[11:14] <slimaq> somebody can help me?
[11:14] <newnickname1234> The problem begin after I booted into windows (Hehe...) and checked the FAT partition and there was a file missing
[11:14] <huXfluX> stefg: DISK BOOT FAILURE:)
[11:14] <newnickname1234> which was earlier present when I had booted into ubuntu
[11:15] <riotkittie> player: oh dear.   do you have internet access from the Live CD? if you can boot with that, and come back in here, perhaps we can figure something out, and make GRUB work so you can actually boot.
[11:15] <kane77> join #rubyonrails
[11:15] <stefg> huXfluX: then i assume that's a bios problem, not a grub problem. is the boot partition marked as active (has teh boot flag set?)
[11:15] <newnickname1234> Dr_willis, do you think you know what the problem might be
[11:15] <riotkittie> someone in here has to be well versed in GRUB malfunctions, eh?  show of hands, anyone?
[11:16] <riotkittie> brb
[11:16] <Dr_willis> newnickname1234,  i suggest booting to widnows and having windows scan the fat disk in question.
[11:16] <huXfluX> stefg: how to see that?
[11:16] <huXfluX> i've booted the livecd again
[11:16] <player> riotkittie: I have internet access, and I have it boot on live cd right next to me, but I can't access irc on it due to some error
[11:16] <huXfluX> what to type in terminal?
[11:16] <newnickname1234> I might try that
[11:16] <aleka> What do I do  if a CDROM is not being recognized when I put it in the bay?
[11:16] <stefg> huXfluX: you need to boot the live CD on the box and run 'sudo fdisk -l'
[11:17] <quittt> which is the best CD burner for Ubuntu?
[11:17] <willdev> two users walked into a bar, /quit and /exit... /exit got bored and walked out, who was left?
[11:17] <Dr_willis> !best
[11:17] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[11:17] <huXfluX> stefg does the /dev/sda1 (/boot) need to have a * ?
[11:17] <huXfluX> coz it doesn't
[11:17] <Dr_willis> quittt,  i perfer k3b. :) but its a kde app.
[11:17] <quittt> ok, it is too subjetive
[11:18] <stefg> huXfluX: yes, some BIOS's require that
[11:18] <riotkittie> player:  do you have any idea where GRUB installed? MBR?
[11:18] <Dr_willis> quittt,  not sure what gnome has to offer thats similer.
[11:18] <riotkittie> willdev: not amusing.
[11:18] <huXfluX> how to set it?
[11:18] <aleka> gnomebaker
[11:18] <player> riotkittie: I can access the hard drives on the lice CD and browse them, is there something in particular I should search for?
[11:19] <Oni-Dracula|lapp> so I was using Gutsy Gibbon and while I was playing a game of Warcraft3 and everything seemed to lock up... so I restart the system and try to reboot, then my BIOS in all of it's wisdom tells me that "NTLDR is missing"... of course I know that it really means that the bootloader is gone.... so does anyone have any suggestions on how to remedy this?

[11:24] <r-wolf> a simple question, exported env vars are not saved between reboots, so they got to be reassigned in start scripts, is it right?
[11:25] <Dr_willis> r-wolf,  the .bashrc or .bash_profile or otehr script.. correct
[11:25] <pastyhermit> vmware heh
[11:25] <erUSUL> Oni-Dracula|lapp: NTLDR is the (Win)NT LoaDeR the "grub" that XP uses so the error has something to do with windows (or maybe the BIOS assumes that the only thing that can be  on the mbr is ntldr and says that when it finds a not bootable mbr)
[11:26] <r-wolf> Dr_willis: does it work in case of GUI login?
[11:26] <Dr_willis> r-wolf,  should.
[11:26] <zoranoth> r-wolf: the dot-files for per user.... or /etc.bashrc /etc/skel/* for all users
[11:26] <Dr_willis> r-wolf,  depends on what you are setting I guess. and how.
[11:26] <MasterShrek> iami, do you have build-essential installed? also vmware isnt as good as virtualbox, vmware is kinda bloated
[11:26] <Oni-Dracula|lapp> erUSUL, considering windows has never been on the HD... i'd say it's my BIOS being tarded
[11:26] <stefg> Oni-Dracula|lapp: reinstalling the grub package does nothing. you need either to run grub-install  or reintall grub from teh grub command line
[11:27] <Dr_willis> Ive had much better success with Vmware-server, then virtualbox.. but it depends on what you are doing.
[11:27] <erUSUL> Oni-Dracula|lapp: it could be we live in a M$ centered world... follow stefg advice on how to restore grub
[11:27] <iami> MasterShrek: Does virtualbox have a library of modules?
[11:27] <aleka> erUSUL:  tail -f /var/log/messages >> nothing there, also tried dmesg|tail   no error messages there either... I put the Cd in there tray and nothing happens...
[11:27] <erUSUL> aleka: :(

[12:00] <erUSUL> yngone: try this first 'sudo /etc/init.d/ipkungfu start'
  ;   Thank you for all your help. Im pretty sure its running good right now
[12:00] <stefg> player: whatever floats your boat... i'd need to look at the partition layout to see, if the linux partition is too far back on the disk, so the bios will not let grub read its config files
[12:01] <player> stefg: What part of the output in particular are you looking for so I can type it out.
[12:01] <newnickname1234> I think the file system might have been corrupted so much, that there might be something cyclical, which cause linux and windows to go crazy
[12:01] <erUSUL> yngone: to add it to the boot secuence do this 'sudo update-rc.d ipkungfu defaults'

[12:02] <stefg> player: basically we need to look if the linux partition starts or extends beyond cylinder 1024 of the disk
[12:03] <newnickname1234> Is there a way to not mount the FAT partition without actually deleting/formatting it
