[12:05] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Hi there, I'm having some problems installing Ubuntu in the first place, can someone do me a favor by giving me the time of day to help me. :)
[12:05] <hwilde> [MH] NarcismLapto, did you run the CD Check
[12:05] <PriceChild> [MH] NarcismLapto, what's the actual problem?
[12:05] <Colro> Opal: how can i go about unmounting it first? i can't do it via the gui since it needs root
[12:05] <hwilde> Colro, umount !
[12:06] <[MH] NarcismLapto> I can't install Ubuntu from a 6.06 CD.. or some sort of.. 7.1 CD
[12:06] <Hilikus_> PriceChild you gave me a link to a forum
[12:06] <Hilikus_> http://ampache.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=1365&p=1
[12:06] <PriceChild> Hilikus_, look at the botto

[12:06] <bluefox83> i'm having an issue with svn, it's not recognizing url paths
[12:06] <hwilde> !svn | bluefox83
[12:06] <ubotu> bluefox83: svn is Subversion: an open-source revision control system, which aims to be a compelling replacement for CVS. See http://subversion.tigris.org/
[12:06] <MeRodent> hwilde, you're not supposed to ask questions like that until we have exhausted about 3/4 to 1 hour on all the things that could happen if the CD was ok.
[12:06] <Colro> hwilde: i tried that and got this: umount: /media/hd2: device is busy -- do i need to add a flag?
[12:06] <unagi> !cvs
[12:06] <ubotu> cvs is the Concurrent Versions System, the dominant open-source network-transparent version control system; it helps to manage releases and to control concurrent editing of source files among multiple authors. See: https://www.cvshome.org/
[12:06] <RedLXXXIV> Hey guys, I'm still pretty new with linux altogether... I'm running Feisy, but I was wondering if anyone has been able to get an ENE CB-712/4 card reader working
[12:07] <[MH] NarcismLapto> I hang at.. adding live CD user on 6.06. and in 7.x, I hang after "checking partitions table" or something pops up.
[12:07] <hwilde> MeRodent, I am a software engineer so I go right for the hardware.  or in this case the media
[12:07] <hwilde> Colro, close all your windows browsing the drive first
[12:07] <hwilde> [MH] NarcismLapto, did you run the CD Check
[12:07] <MeRodent> hwilde, that's not the point. I thought we're supposed to ignore the obvious. :)
[12:07] <[MH] NarcismLapto> hwilde, doing that just now, I've installed Ubuntu on 2 computers with this CD
[12:07] <Colro> hwilde: they are closed, i did have a terminal that was browseing it disappear when i dragged it over my top gnome panel though O_o
[12:08] <hwilde> Colro, ok then umount it
[12:08] <meoblast001> hello
[12:08] <hwilde> !hi | meoblast001
[12:08] <ubotu> meoblast001: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[12:08] <Colro> hwilde: still can't though, says it's busy when nothing is open to it
[12:08] <LuCypher> hi all
[12:08] <meoblast001> i need to connect VNCviewer to a server  not on the default port
[12:08] <meoblast001> how do i do this?
[12:08] <hwilde> Colro, you managed to mount it, i'm sure you can figure out how to unmount it.    or just chown and chmod it like I said.
[12:09] <[MH] NarcismLapto> hwilde, i'll get back to you when the CD check finishes
[12:09] <hwilde> [MH] NarcismLapto, if it fails on the partition maybe your harddrive is bad?
[12:09] <bluekb_> I am having trouble getting the nvidia binary (proprietary) drivers working for an 8600GS card.
[12:10] <hwilde> meoblast001,   vncviewer host:port
[12:10] <bluekb_> I have tried installing the nvidia-glx package and running nvidia-xconfig, but it results in an error upon starting gdm/kdm
[12:11] <bluekb_> Also, I have tried using the nvidia.com proprietary drivers, and get an error  "failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module"
[12:11] <MeRodent> bluekb_, that's because the only driver that supports that card is the nvidia 100.14.xx drivers.
[12:11] <hwilde> bluekb_, you realize that the 8600GS is not listed  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsNvidia
[12:11] <dzb_> I need help with openvpn-server when doing ./build-ca I get the error ./build-ca: line 8: ./pkitool: No such file or directory | now there is a pkitool.gz in the dir set to 775 does anybody happen to have the correct pkitool for me, since I can't find it on the net anywhere, please?
[12:11] <RedLXXXIV> has anyone here been able to get an ENE CB-712/4 card reader working?
[12:11] <bluekb_> MeRodent: okay, so what do I do in order to get those drivers?
[12:11] <Mumphster> Im having trouble getting my sound to work. The mixer isnt detecting anything ( I cant go to the volume control menu ) and whenever I try to play an mp3 I get "[../../../src/audio_oss.c:188]  error: Can't open default sound device!" even though everything is installed right. halp
[12:12] <hwilde> dzb_, gunzip pkitool.gz
[12:12] <Colro> is there a hotkey to hide/show the gnome panels?
[12:12] <hwilde> !hotkeys | Colro
[12:12] <ubotu> Colro: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts
[12:12] <[MH] NarcismLapto> hwilde. I have two HD's. Timeline: installing Windows HD1. HD1 crashes. Buy HD2. Install Windows on HD2. //Fast Forward to now.//I move evertyghing to HD1 and install Windows on HD1. I format and repartition HD1 and HD2, I want to install linux on HD2
[12:12] <meoblast001> hwilde: it wont connect
[12:13] <MeRodent> bluekb_, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/40577/   I'm about to head off so hopefully you can follow the instructions at that location.
[12:13] <hwilde> [MH] NarcismLapto, sounds like the partitions are no good on hd2.  did you use gparted ?
[12:13] <MeRodent> bluekb_, I suggest you save them and print them.
[12:13] <[MH] NarcismLapto> partition magic
[12:13] <bluekb_> MeRodent, on second check, the nvidia 100.14.19 package from nvidia.com is what I have tried
[12:14] <hwilde> [MH] NarcismLapto, boot into the livecd,  run gparted,  verify the partition table is ok.  you might need to just repartition

[12:14] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[12:14] <MeRodent> bluekb_, you need to disable the older drivers. Follow the instructions step by step (I suggest you read through first as it can answer some of your questions).
[12:14] <[MH] NarcismLapto> cheers hwilde, i'll try that
[12:14] <bluekb_> MeRodent, thanks I will try that
[12:15] <hwilde> [MH] NarcismLapto, worst case you can just delete all the partitions and let the install cd do it for you
[12:16] <[MH] NarcismLapto> hwilde: delete all the partitions: unallocate them?
[12:16] <unstable> Can I have a loop back encrypted file system when I install gutsy? Like I can with debian etch
[12:16] <unstable> or feisty
[12:16] <Hilikus_> PriceChild https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ampache
[12:16] <hwilde> [MH] NarcismLapto, right click, delete.   the install cd can handle a freshly formatted drive, or an empty partition table, but it sounds like it can't handle however that drive is setup
[12:17] <PriceChild> Hilikus_, even better
[12:17] <mapez> Hey, I installed ntfs-config and just rebooted my machine.. and I can no longer see my ntfs hard drive.. halp?
[12:17] <L1> What could cause the Mail command not to send mail.  It works on another similar system.  No error in /varl/log/
[12:17] <hwilde> mapez, it has to be mapped in /etc/fstab
[12:17] <Hilikus_> but when i followed their instructions i get
[12:17] <Hilikus_> hilikus@mazinger:/var/www$ sudo apt-get update
[12:17] <Hilikus_> E: Type 'deb-src/' is not known on line 52 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list

[12:17] <mapez> hwidle? eh?
[12:18] <Hilikus_> oh ok
[12:18] <[MH] NarcismLapto> hwilde, should I almost unplug HD1, and throw in the CD with HD2 uniquely connected?
[12:18] <DevLilJohn> hello every one, is there one one that can help me resize my pratitions?
[12:18] <hwilde> [MH] NarcismLapto, anytime I mess with aprtitions or formatting I make sure only one drive is physically connected

[12:23] <b0lt> with that, it crashes
[12:23] <Mumphster> im trying to install a new package but it keeps asking me to insert the ubuntu cd
[12:23] <Mumphster> is there anyway to not do this?
[12:24] <tibbe> b0lt: no such package int apt-cache either, could you please check? :)
[12:24] <astro76> Mumphster, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list , remove the line about the CD ROM
[12:25] <scales> any suggestions?
[12:25] <Opa1> Mumphster in /etc/apt/sources you will see you CDROM - put a "#" on that line and try again - astro76 beat me to it
[12:25] <Mumphster> thanks
[12:25] <blue_> any way to get my trash can back after I accidentally "remove from panel"ed it
[12:25] <willgoitia> thank youuuuu!!!

[12:37] <gogeta> slow day
[12:37] <owad> Specifically, I'm hoping to figure out if Radio Shack's adapter will work, before I go and buy it.

[12:38] <owad> I have a keypsan, but I read that would require a kernel recompile
[12:38] <eZtaR> Apt-get autoremove wants to remove gnome, but i don't want to remove gnome, what do i do?
[12:38] <SeanConnery> so I guess no one knows?

[12:43] <unagi> DevLilJohn: whats the error of gparted
[12:43] <gogeta> reformat all partations :)
[12:43] <DevLilJohn> unagi, it just says the drive is unpartitioned
[12:44] <m1r> devliljohn , ext3 ?
[12:44] <DevLilJohn> unagi, which is incorrect cause im running ubuntu on it
[12:44] <unagi> does it actually say its unpartitioned or does gparted show unpartitioned space
[12:44] <gogeta> abought the only way i knoe to repair a table
[12:44] <DevLilJohn> unagi, yes ext3 and ntfs
[12:44] <unagi> you didnt answer my question lol
[12:44] <gogeta> ters other metids but loses data anyways
[12:44] <AirBender> Gutsy is already there
[12:44] <Colro> is there anything similar to VNC that's free that a windows user can view my desktop with? or can a windows user connect via ubuntu's remote desktop?
[12:44] <benny269> my wireless shows its logical name as eth1.....could this be why its not working?
[12:45] <AirBender> (lol, mistake)
[12:45] <DevLilJohn> unagi, sorry, it says its unallocated
[12:45] <gogeta> colro yes tightvnc
[12:45] <unagi> ok lemme try again
[12:45] <unagi> does ubuntu report an error saying 'unallocated space' or are you just saying that gparted shows unallocated space
[12:46] <unagi> er not ubuntu
[12:46] <unagi> gparted
[12:46] <unagi> blah
[12:46] <benny269> anyone help me troubleshoot my wireless not connecting?
[12:46] <Colro> gogeta: alright, thanks
[12:46] <gigirock> yes benny
[12:46] <Colro> gogeta: can a windows user just use normal VNC to connect to me if im the server with that?
[12:46] <DevLilJohn> unagi, gparted shows no errors, it just says unallocated space
[12:46] <m1r> colro yes
[12:46] <gogeta> tightvnc is a normal vnc app
[12:47] <unagi> do you run gparted in the terminal?
[12:47] <Colro> mlr: thanks much :D
[12:47] <gogeta> colro its compatble with all vnc servers
[12:47] <Colro> awsome :D
[12:47] <b-real> tu ves mucho gokoo
[12:47] <b-real> >(
[12:47] <DevLilJohn> unagi, no from the menu, system, admin, gparted
[12:47] <unagi> run it from the terminal
[12:47] <m1r> devliljohn ; sudo gparted
[12:48] <Powerking89670> Hello All. I am booted into my Ubuntu recovery console atm, I started my xserver, and am currently trying to change my login screen, (since the one I picked doesnt work properly) is there a way to confirm that this change has indeed...worked
[12:48] <Colro> do either of you happen to know what port(s) it needs open to run a server?
[12:48] <Ashfire908> every time i use xchat, it calles aplay to make the sounds and then the aplay never does anything and just stays running
[12:48] <Scunizi> DevLilJohn, with gparted there is a "spinbox" in the top left of the window that you can change to different partitions.. That's probably what's happening. It defaults to the unpartitioned space on the drive(s)
[12:48] <rilo> sooo... what is happening when you're building a new kernel, you run "make-kpkg -initrd --revision=386 kernel image kernel_headers modules_image"  and it finishes without errors... but there is no .deb in the /usr/src?
[12:48] <gogeta> colro most all use the same ports and ubuntu should aruldy be configured right
[12:49] <DevLilJohn> unagi, ok i ran gksudo gparted and when it came up it still shows unallocated
[12:49] <rilo> mmmm... unagi :D
[12:49] <unagi> the terminal doesnt say anything about overlapping partitions?
[12:49] <DevLilJohn> unagi, nope
[12:49] <gogeta> colro ubuntu vns sessions also tell you the ip and port to use
[12:49] <Scunizi> unagi & DevLilJohn did you see my post above?  Would this be the issue?
[12:49] <unagi> ::shrug::
[12:50] <Colro> sounds good :)
[12:50] <gigirock> I installed java runtime from Java site but if i say java -version from cmd line i have 1.4.2 revision answer not 1.6 why ?
[12:50] <dimas_> i would like to have somebody to walk me through installing mudule in terminal with module-assistant
[12:50] <DevLilJohn> Scunizi, no i have the correct drive selected
[12:50] <unagi> ok i dont get this reprap crap
[12:50] <unagi> it says that it can replicate itsself but that doesnt make sense because it requires motors and crap
[12:50] <benny269> any networking/wireless help? my wireless is broadcasting and ubuntu is configured for it, wireless light comes on but no internet?!
[12:50] <boselecta> can somebody help me manually calculate a video mode for X?
[12:51] <Scunizi> DevLilJohn, ok.. you might want to download and burn the iso for Gparted live and check it with that.
[12:51] <m1r> benny269 what card you have ?
[12:51] <jrib> !java > gigirock (read the private message from ubotu)
[12:51] <freetos> does anybody know how good usb midi support is in linux?  ie.. should i get a regular midi keyboard and get cables to connect to my serial port, or is usb midi support fully functional?
[12:51] <DevLilJohn> Scunizi, yeah i tried that also but it still shows unallocated space
[12:51] <jrib> gigirock: use the repositories
[12:51] <moope1> how do you rip a cd to iso?
[12:51] <Scunizi> DevLilJohn, wow... that is weird..
[12:51] <XiXaQ> Is there an application that enables a user to download the required debs needed to install something on a Windows machine?
[12:52] <unagi> deb on a windows machine?
[12:52] <XiXaQ> as I understand it, AptOnCD doesn't work with Windows?
[12:52] <Fern> Hello!
[12:52] <Ashfire908> XiXaQ: you can't run lunix stuff on winows
[12:52] <benny269> m1r: intel pro/wireless i think? i have connected this laptop to the internet before but that was under xubuntu. dont know why its not working now?
[12:52] <DevLilJohn> Sucunizi, i know i can boot both windows and ubuntu with out any errors and fdisk -l shows my partitions, but gparted doesn't
[12:52] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, debs are specific to distributions that are Debian based.. exe progs work on windows.  What program are you trying to get for windows?
[12:52] <Ashfire908> XiXaQ: not without checking the code and compiling it for windows
[12:53] <XiXaQ> unagi, yes, if the user doesn't have an internet connection on the ubuntu machine, but only on a windows machine. He wants to download the software on Windows and then install it on Ubuntu using a USB stick.
[12:53] <unagi> so if you can boot fine on it why do you need gparted to show the partition
[12:53] <Fern> I have a wireless card but I am not sure how to install it on Ubuntu. Can anyone help me?
[12:53] <XiXaQ> hehe, you misunderstood.
[12:53] <DevLilJohn> unagi, i need to resize the ntfs partition
[12:53] <Scunizi> DevLilJohn, sorry.. can't help
[12:53] <unagi> is the ntfs partition to the left or right of the ext3
[12:53] <DevLilJohn> right
[12:54] <unagi> i wish you had said left
[12:54] <unagi> cuz then ud have to reformat anyway
[12:54] <unagi> problem solved
[12:54] <unagi> lol
[12:54] <DevLilJohn> i guess but it took me forever to figure out this dual boot thing i would hate to have to redo it all
[12:55] <unagi> i had to repartition about 4 times...........i wanted to give windows more space........then i wanted to give linux more space...........then something went wrong........then i said screw it ill use ntfs-3g and give both equal space
[12:55] <Scunizi> DevLilJohn, there is a utility for resizing NTFS partitions.  It's on the latest System Rescue CD.
[12:55] <unagi> Scunizi: that isnt the problem
[12:56] <unagi> unix isnt showing the partition
[12:56] <tsai> hello all, has anyone gotten bluetooth remote working on  Ubuntu 7.04?  I am trying to use my cell phone as a remote control for KDE aps
[12:56] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, I'm not trying to run programs on Windows. I want to use Windows to download the required software in ubuntu.
[12:56] <unagi> ive gotten DUN bluetooth working but thats it
[12:56] <DevLilJohn> is there a way to right the partition table from scratch with out losing any data, i know exactly where each partition starts and ends
[12:56] <Scunizi> unagi, DevLilJohn I understand that .. but nice to know it's there for when this issue get's worked out.
[12:56] <unagi> true
[12:56] <unagi> id be concerned first with the missing partition
[12:56] <[MH] NarcismLapto> I'm having some troubles installing.. linux 7.x... The GUI fires up fine, when I go to install, right after "starting up partitoner" or something. I have 2 harddrives.. one has 100% windows, the second I've i've tried unformatted, and linux formatted, neither have worked
[12:57] <unagi> because when that happens usually the disk fails soon after
[12:57] <[MH] NarcismLapto> right after "starting up partitioner", it crashes*
[12:57] <unagi> [MH] NarcismLapto: format it in ext3
[12:57] <Opa1> XiXaQ look at http://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php?title=Ubuntu_USB_Install
[12:57] <[MH] NarcismLapto> instead of ext2?
[12:57] <unagi> yea
[12:57] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, ok.. then what you seem to really want is the location of the Ubuntu repos to download directly to windows put on USB stick then boot back to Ubuntu for install.. the repo location is the key.
[12:57] <unagi> do you have a windows xp or vista disk
[12:57] <benny269>  any networking/wireless help? my wireless is broadcasting and ubuntu is configured for it, wireless light comes on but no internet?!
[12:58] <tsai> unagi: DUN?  Is this just for OBEX push?
[12:58] <DevLilJohn> unagi, Scunizi, i also need to resize my linux partition smaller to make more room for my ntfs partition
[12:58] <[MH] NarcismLapto> unagi, me? I have windows xp installed, I can use partition magic
[12:58] <unagi> dial up networking
[12:58] <unagi> DevLilJohn: i have great news for you
[12:59] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, well, but I'd like to use the USB stick as a repository. And I'd like it to be automatic.
[12:59] <unagi> you cant do that without reformatting anyway
[12:59] <DevLilJohn> unagi, what do you mean i did it before
[12:59] <Scunizi> DevLilJohn, with partitions not showing up in gparted you have issues...
[12:59] <unagi> [MH] NarcismLapto: screw partition magic just boot with a windows cd and delete the ext2 partition then load linux
[12:59] <rilo> sooo... what is happening when you're building a new kernel, you run "make-kpkg -initrd --revision=386 kernel image kernel_headers modules_image"  and it finishes without errors... but there is no .deb in the /usr/src?
[12:59] <unagi> DevLilJohn: id love to know how if your linux partition is to the left of the ntfs
[01:00] <[MH] NarcismLapto> unagi, i tried with an unformatted drive, it still crashed at the sam eplace
[01:00] <unagi> ::shrug::
[01:00] <[MH] NarcismLapto> unallocated rather
[01:00] <unagi> ok g2g
[01:00] <unagi> work calls
[01:00] <unagi> bbl
[01:00] <DevLilJohn> unagi, my linux partition, used to take up my entire disk but made it smaller, to make a 10 gig partition for windows
[01:01] <DevLilJohn> then i just installed windows
[01:01] <whack-a-mole> is this the north carolina chat
[01:01] <Opa1> XiXaQ one problem I had with USB is that when I boot from the USBstick it thinks it is /dev/sda1 - then when I have finished the install, an boot from the internal disk (dev/sda) the grub loader cant find its files on (hd1,0) - that's why I went to PXE-boot-
[01:02] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, well... once you have the programs on the stick and you go back into Ubuntu you'll need to add a line to sources.list to referance the stick..If you're dealing with several machines then you're better off just changing directories to the stick and double click on the prog you want to install.. there is a new utility that will create a "repo" on cd or stick but I've forgotten the name.  I'll look and if I come up with it I'll post.
[01:02] <LiMaO> doesn't sudo work in kde?
[01:03] <XiXaQ> Opa1, I don't want to boot from USB.
[01:03] <Scunizi> Opa1, XiXaQ that's what uuid is supose to fix.. instead of using /dev/xxxx
[01:03] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, do you mean AptOnCD?
[01:03] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, that's the one!  I had forgotten the name.
[01:04] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, but that doesn't work with windows, I think.
[01:05] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, well. if you're adventurous you have a couple of options.  Boot to a live cd and install aptoncd or install VMWare on Windows and install Ubuntu inside of that then use aptoncd.
[01:06] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, I am missing something here though.. do you occasionally NOT have an internet connection? is that why you want to create a repo on usb?
[01:06] <Bl0w_M0nk> hello im a newbie to this is thr anything speacil i have to do to fresh install ubuntu for my OS
[01:07] <Opa1> Scunizi sure, but at "fresh-install on new disk" time, we don't have a uuid yet, because the disk isn't fornated, and the grub groot= is off by one.  (remember, Pissy's by design think that drives stay at the same location between boots, which isn't true of USBDISK ;-(
[01:07] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, right. I have access to a computer that has a good internet connection, but that's running Windows, and I can't reboot it.
[01:07] <dzb_> Can somebody tell me where my openvpn server.conf is worng? I keep getting FAILED http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/16127/
[01:07] <gogeta> xixaq cant reboot it?
[01:08] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, in fact, I can't install anything. I'm considering writing an application for this, but I want to make sure it doesn't already exist.
[01:08] <XiXaQ> gogeta, no, I don't have permissions to do that.
[01:08] <gogeta> xixaq ubs drive linux?
[01:08] <gogeta> live cd
[01:08] <pwnt-> Hey
[01:08] <gogeta> usb
[01:08] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, I think you can ftp the programs from the repo's directly with WinXX and just save them on the stick.
[01:08] <gogeta> thers a few ways
[01:09] <gogeta> xixaq xdsl embedded
[01:09] <benny269>  any networking/wireless help? my wireless is broadcasting and ubuntu is configured for it, wireless light comes on but no internet?!
[01:09] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, do you need a list of the repos?
[01:09] <excessluggage> can someone please suggest how I can force my screen resolution to be 1400x900.  The largest available resolution is 1280x1024.
[01:09] <Cheek> is the boot flag on a partition necessary/used?
[01:09] <gogeta> xixaq it uses qemu inseded the usb stick so it doesent install anything in windows
[01:09] <Cheek> by grub?
[01:10] <excessluggage> i have edited xorg.conf to contain and use my monitor details (va1912w)
[01:10] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, too much manual work. I'd like to make a remote-apt-get wrapper that generates a list of the required packages, stores that on a USB stick. Then I connect the USB stick on the windows machine and run the application from there, and it downloads the required packages. I then reconnect it on Ubuntu, run remote-apt-get install, and it adds the USB thing as a repo, updates apt-get and downloads it. Or something like that.
[01:11] <kemo_dev> Hello
[01:11] <Tech-Mike> sup peeps, i know this isnt the channel for this but: i shrank my vista partition and installed winxp the unpartioned space - but now cant boot into vista... not even through boot menu
[01:12] <gogeta> xixaq i dont think thats possable without a running ubuntu setep
[01:12] <XiXaQ> it should be.
[01:12] <gogeta> xixaq how would it knoe what apckages it needs
[01:12] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, ok.. I read about a script like that in one of the Linux magazines a while back.. It's doable. I just don't know how to approach it.
[01:12] <XiXaQ> gogeta, apt-get knows?
[01:13] <gogeta> xixaq nt witrhout comparing it to the running system
[01:13] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, I was thinking I'd use portable python for windows.
[01:13] <gogeta> xixaq you can make apt isos from another ubuntu setup
[01:13] <misley> hey all, how do I check my system uptime from the command line
[01:13] <Scunizi> gogeta, he has a running system but no internet access.  He needs to generate a list of progs he wants, take that to a win machine and download them then back to linux and install.
[01:14] <stunatra> misley, type in "uptime"
[01:14] <gogeta> xixaq doable on another ubuntu box
[01:14] <XiXaQ> gogeta, that's not a problem.. You run a normal apt-get install on the ubuntu system, the application notices which dependencies weren't met and stores it on the usb thing, then you run the application again on windows. It downloads the required packages. Then you run it again on ubuntu, and the software is installed.
[01:14] <misley> thanks
[01:14] <Ashfire> i need help with xchat
[01:14] <XiXaQ> gogeta, yes, I know it is, but that's not possible, so ..
[01:14] <Ashfire> aplay isn't working and each aplay process hangs
[01:14] <n4s> does any of you have ever installed "Warsow" the game ?? ??
[01:14] <gogeta> xixaq thers no apt windows
[01:14] <Opa1>  XiXaQ  Scunizi you two might enjoy this one ... http://goodbye-microsoft.com/ I think I saw something similar for ubuntu in google
[01:15] <XiXaQ> gogeta, I know.. ?
[01:15] <Pelo> Ashfire, you'll need to ask in #xchat
[01:15] <XiXaQ> Opa1, yes, but that's for installing Ubuntu.
[01:15] <XiXaQ> Opa1, ehrm, Debian.
[01:15] <Ashfire> Pelo, but it's aplay that's broken
[01:15] <gogeta> xixaq if you had another ubuntu system you cold mak isos of the enitre apt tree
[01:15] <gogeta> xixaq then use that to update a offline system
[01:15] <XiXaQ> gogeta, yes, but I don't have another ubuntu system.. I have a Windows system.
[01:16] <Scunizi> Opa1, that's cute.. but an .exe?  can debian install directly that way? or is this a sneeky virus for winXX
[01:16] <Pelo> Ashfire, sorry but I don't know anything about aplay
[01:16] <black_13> what is the latest version of ubuntu?
[01:16] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, it doesn't actually install the system. It writes itself to NTLDR and starts the install after a reboot.
[01:16] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, ah.. ok
[01:16] <Opa1> XiXaQ had you thought about running an ubuntu in a VMWARE session, and installing apt-cacher in the VM-ubuntu ?
[01:17] <Pelo> black_13, the current is  Feisty Fawn  7.04, but   Gutsy Gibbon 7.10 will be out in a few days
[01:17] <n4s> anyone has RTCW:ET ??
[01:17] <XiXaQ> black_13, feisty, 7.04, but there is a new version just around the corner.
[01:17] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Does anyone know how to do something called noapci? or apci=no? I'm googling and it seems this is what i'm looking for, how exactly to i turn this on and make linux start up . :)
[01:17] <black_13> i see
[01:17] <gogeta> xixaq he cant install things on his windows box
[01:17] <Scunizi> Opa1, been that route with XiXaQ .. he can't install anything on that win sys.
[01:17] <XiXaQ> Opa1, yes, but that's not an option either.
[01:17] <overlord> What do I do if: I want the auto-mount feature to remain as it, but the cdrom device should not be displayed on my desktop once it is mounted.
[01:17] <Pelo> [MH] NarcismLapto,  you add it to the proper line in  /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:17] <black_13> so its not possible to upgrade at this time?
[01:18] <gogeta> xixaq if you have a alrge usb stick you can run ubuntu straght off it
[01:18] <Opa1> XiXaQ - well - we tried ;-)
[01:18] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Pelo, I can't install Unbuntu from the Desktop CD, someone told me that might be the key
[01:18] <XiXaQ> black_13, wait until it's released to be on the safe side.
[01:18] <Scunizi> gogeta, but he can't reboot the win box.
[01:18] <XiXaQ> gogeta, no, you can't do that without rebooting.
[01:18] <gogeta> easy
[01:18] <gogeta> qemu on stick
[01:18] <Pelo> black_13,   gutsy is in RC atm so yes,  you can ask about how in #ubuntu+1
[01:18] <[MH] NarcismLapto> The Ubuntu installer hangs after "Starting the Partitioner" I tried unallocated, ext2 and ext3, none have worked
[01:18] <gogeta> you shure can
[01:18] <XiXaQ> gogeta, are you sure that will run on all Windows setups, even locked-down ones?
[01:18] <Scunizi> gogeta, XiXaQ now we're getting somewhere.
[01:18] <Opa1> that's an idea, i have a 2-gig ubuntu stick, from that I could install to the local disk, if I wanted to ... let me go look for tthe URL ... brb
[01:19] <Pelo> [MH] NarcismLapto,  when you can'T install from the desktop cd use the alternate install cd,  get it on www.ubuntu.com   in the dl section , when you select your version , there is a check box just below the download button
[01:19] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Pelo, do I need to be linux savvy to use this?
[01:19] <XiXaQ> gogeta, Scunizi; but that would in any case be _way_ too heavy. I think I'll write an application for it myself.
[01:19] <DevLilJohn> exit
[01:19] <Opa1> XiXaQ https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/linux-upgrade.html
[01:19] <DevLilJohn> quit
[01:19] <gogeta> if he setup qemu on his stick then its possable
[01:19] <gogeta> lemmie see info
[01:20] <doncasteel8587> Hello Everyone, first timer here, I need some help if someone has a couple minutes
[01:20] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, to bad Win doesn't have something similiar to wget..
[01:20] <XiXaQ> Opa1, I'm not installing Ubuntu.
[01:20] <n4s> How to enter nvidia driver properties in ubuntu ?? // it;s already installer, what shout i type in ??
[01:20] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, it does.
[01:20] <jrib> doncasteel8587: best to just ask the channel your next question and see if anyone knows the answer
[01:20] <Pelo> mheath, not realy, it'S just an ugly text based installer,  no live desktop so it's a lot easier on the resources and hardware
[01:20] <gogeta> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/03/26/portable-qemu-persistent-ubuntu-linux/
[01:20] <gogeta> wala
[01:20] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, wget is available for Windows.
[01:20] <jrib> n4s: nvidia-settings
[01:20] <Pelo> doncasteel8587,  jsut ask your question and if somemone can they will try and answer
[01:20] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, but you can't install it.. :(
[01:20] <SpudDogg> sup akk
[01:20] <SpudDogg> all
[01:21] <overlord> What do I do if: I want the auto-mount feature to remain as it, but the cdrom device should not be displayed on my desktop once it is mounted.
[01:21] <gogeta> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/03/26/portable-qemu-persistent-ubuntu-linux/
[01:21] <gogeta> ubuntu on pendrive with qemu
[01:21] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, hmm? Sure you can. It's just an executable.
[01:21] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, I thought you said you can't install anything on this machine.
[01:21] <Pelo> gogeta,   gconf-editor   /apps/nautilus/desktop   there is a checkbox in there for that
[01:21] <XiXaQ> gogeta, yes, but that'd be way too heavy in any case.
[01:21] <n4s> ok thx ;] 
[01:22] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, ah, no, but I'll be able to run executables.
[01:22] <gogeta> xixaq it would run totaly on its own thow
[01:22] <XiXaQ> gogeta, yes, but it'd use way too much resources, and require too much space.
[01:22] <gogeta> xixaq and allow you to run updates
[01:22] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, VMWare is an .exe .. at least the win version is.
[01:22] <doncasteel8587> I've purchased a new HD for my laptop, I installed ubuntu on it, now I need to know which files and folders I need to copy so it works the same as this one. For instance it took forever to get my wireless card and internet setup, and I really don't want to have to go through that again.
[01:22] <dzb_> Can somebody tell me where my openvpn server.conf is worng? I keep getting FAILED http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/16127/
[01:22] <gogeta> xixaq well it will still boot nativly as well
[01:22] <XiXaQ> Scunizi, yes, but that's also too heavy. I have the solution in mind.
[01:22] <firefox90> what is the cmd for installing the beryl compiz manager in gutsy?
[01:22] <gogeta> xixaq if your not on wndows
[01:22] <Powerking> I dont like VMWare, if your talking virtual machines, take a look into Virtual Box
[01:22] <Scunizi> XiXaQ, ok..
[01:23] <Pelo> doncasteel8587,  copying  /home to your new hdd will restore all your data and app settings,  not sure about the device config tho
[01:23] <XiXaQ> hehe, this conversation is going off of it's hinges.
[01:23] <mheath> Pelo: What? You said my name earlier, something about the text based installer....I never said anything.
[01:23] <Pelo> firefox90, ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:23] <overlord> firefox90: why do you need beyl, compiz is already installed in Gusty, isn't it?
[01:23] <Scunizi> doncasteel8587, you can use a Partimage live cd to image the HD then put it on the new drive.  You may have to go in with gparted afterwards to resize the partiiton larger.
[01:24] <Pelo> mheath,  sorry , wrong nick comp,. some guy wiith non alpha characters at the beginning of his nick ( damn I hate those guys)
[01:24] <doncasteel8587> Pelo, I've tried that, but it won't allow me to "paste" the dialog option is grayed out

[01:26] <underwatercow> What's a good backup program?
[01:26] <XiXaQ> gogeta, no. I think portable python is the way to go.

[01:26] <mr_wang> the folders are still hidded.
[01:26] <XiXaQ> mr_wang, how do you know they're hidden?

[01:28] <gogeta> LOL
[01:28] <mr_wang> no its installed there.. i did it 50 times.
[01:29] <kiru> then i installed ubuntu on it and now i have smth better macintosh can ever be
[01:29] <Timbooooo> anyone know
[01:29] <kiru> so i saved 1000euro
[01:29] <jrib> kiru: #ubuntu-offtopic, not here please
[01:29] <gogeta> osx ownez
[01:29] <Timbooooo> does the new release have better support for wireless???
[01:29] <Pelo> Timbooooo, it improves each tme but you better ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:29] <benny269> gogeta: what can i do to figure out the problem?
[01:29] <Pelo> Timbooooo, do you know what spamming a channel means ?
[01:29] <super-6-1> hello i have ubuntu 7.04 and everything that i start is really slow any reason why?
[01:30] <gogeta> i dont deal with wireless but it seems alot of issues with it
[01:30] <kiru> ubuntu > mac> debian > suse > ms windows
[01:30] <kiru> :)
[01:30] <matthew_> Hi
[01:30] <Scunizi> jrib, it was related to ubuntu support.. a one liner... a "your welcome" might be appropriate.
[01:30] <gogeta> qired for me works everytime
[01:30] <Timbooooo> Pelo ty
[01:30] <gogeta> wired
[01:30] <Pelo> super-6-1, how much memory do you have ? how many non-default aps do you have on start up ?
[01:30] <kahrytan> How do you convert .toast image to iso?
[01:30] <matthew_> Can someone help me please?
[01:30] <SuperQ> matthew_: just ask the question
[01:30] <super-6-1> Pelo, 385 and i dont know
[01:30] <underwatercow> Timbooooo: It has some better support, such as for the bcm43xx series of wireless cards, but other than that I'm not sure
[01:30] <kiru> matthew_: no one can help yoz
[01:30] <Scunizi> !ask | matthew_
[01:30] <ubotu> matthew_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:31] <Pelo> kahrytan, figure out hwat the default ap for it is and look for a converter on google
[01:31] <Pelo> super-6-1,  do you have anyting fancy installed ? like beryl / compiz ?
[01:31] <matthew_> I'm having a problem in stalling the NDIS rapper, I've read through the instructions and they don't make sense to me
[01:31] <Timbooooo> underwatercow if i have a dell and wireless didnt work before without jumping through hoops, should i try again?
[01:31] <kahrytan> Pelo, Toast?
[01:31] <super-6-1> no
[01:31] <super-6-1> Pelo, brand new installtion
[01:31] <Pelo> kahrytan, google for it
[01:32] <Pelo> super-6-1, what's your Cpu ?
[01:32] <kahrytan> Pelo,  it's mac app
[01:32] <SeanConnery> hey for whoever was listening to me before, debian works fine...
[01:32] <matthew_> Can anyone walk me through the install process please?
[01:32] <underwatercow> Timbooooo: It's my understanding that the Dell cards should be supported better by default, though I haven't tested it on my Dell yet.
[01:32] <freak__> which is the best way to make a custom install?
[01:32] <super-6-1> Pelo, intel but i had it on here alot and it has never done this
[01:32] <kiru> i cant wait for 7.10
[01:32] <Pelo> kahrytan, you need to find a converter,  go to gootle and try  toast2iso , see if anything comes up
[01:32] <kiru> i have installed ubuntu on my notebook and servers both
[01:32] <kahrytan> Pelo,  so most the results are mc related
[01:33] <Pelo> super-6-1,  I meant what speed ?  pentium 2 700mhz or something
[01:33] <kiru> hail ubuntu!
[01:33] <kiru> :)
[01:33] <kahrytan> Pelo,  They are mac related
[01:33] <Pelo> kahrytan, try in the forum   www.ubuntuforums.org
[01:33] <super-6-1> Pelo P 2 500 mhz
[01:33] <matthew_> anyone please?

[01:34] <kiru> actually my internal intel card of my notebook was never supposed to run with xgl
[01:34] <kiru> but somehow the ubuntu developers did it
[01:35] <kiru> where can i send such an acknowledgement?
[01:35] <kiru> i am really thanful
[01:35] <kiru> thankful
[01:35] <gigirock> jrib i have to cut .ts files...
[01:35] <mr_wang> how do i CHMOD so i can do EVERYTHING with the file?
[01:35] <Scunizi> gigirock, LiVes  .. It'll be in the Gutsy repos otherwise for Feisty www.getdeb.net
[01:36] <jrib> mr_wang: what file?
[01:36] <Pelo> mr_wang,  chmod 755 filename
[01:36] <mr_wang> i am trying to install UT2004 now... its starting to piss me off.. /media/cdrom1/linux-installer.sh
[01:36] <jrib> gigirock: then ask *that* question, I don't know about that
[01:37] <nas> i'm downloading "Warsow" and "Wolfenstein:Enemy Terytory" :D
[01:37] <Pelo> mr_wang,  cd /correct folder ,  sudo chmod 777 linux-installer.sh     ,  sudo ./linux-installer.sh
[01:37] <matthew_> I read it and folowed the direction and am still not having luck
[01:37] <pwnt-> anybody can help me with identd install? I forwarded the port in my router & installed package ident2
[01:38] <pwnt-> what else do i need to do
[01:38] <Pelo> matthew_, the insatll process of what exactly ?
[01:38] <matthew_> o to system>administration>synaptic package manager> then when your actually in that program hold ctrl on your keyboard then tap F and you'll see a search window, type in ndis or wrapper or the full thing your're looking for till you find "ndiswrapper-utils" and "ndiswrapper-modules" then right click 'em and mark for installation, hit apply and ok
[01:38] <Pelo> pwnt-,  what is this related to ?
[01:38] <jrib> mr_wang: cdrom is mounted noexec so you probably need to do 'sh linux-installer.sh'
[01:39] <pwnt-> Pelo: what do you mean brother
[01:39] <Scunizi> mr_wang, Pelo.. I think the prog. is on cd and doesn't need chmod.. just cd to the directory and either sudo ./"installer.sh" or sudo sh ./"installer.sh" . It's been a while since I installed it.. Works great though.
[01:39] <Pelo> matthew_,  open up synaptic ,  use the search button at the top , type ndis ,  do you get any packages listed ?
[01:39] <pwnt-> Pelo: I'm just trying to install identd.
[01:40] <Pelo> pwnt-, I thought it might be a module for an app, I would have suggested you ask in a channel for that app
[01:40] <matthew_> yes, i get a few packages listed
[01:40] <Pelo> matthew_, anyone of them called ndiswrapper ?
[01:40] <pwnt-> Pelo: It's just the package "ident2" and forwarding the port 113.
[01:40] <mr_wang> CD KEY FILE COULD NOT BE OPENED.
[01:40] <pwnt-> Pelo: it should work, but it didn't here for my ubuntu.
[01:41] <matthew_> just that?
[01:41] <Pelo> pwnt-, I'm not realy familiar with port forwarding in linux, sorry I can,T help , maybe in #networking
[01:41] <matthew_> I see a few then, NDISWRAPPERCOMMON
[01:41] <Scunizi> matthew_, when addessing an answer to someone please use their nick in the line.. it'll highlight on the receiving end. type the first few characters and hit Tab.

[01:41] <Symian> Hi! I'm trying to install Ubuntu. I can't get my wireless internet to work.
[01:41] <Symian> Can anyone help me with that?
[01:41] <gogeta> welcome to the club
[01:41] <pwnt-> Pelo: the port forwarding is fine, I just done it. and its good - its from ubuntu side now how to run the service. I'll wait for someone else that knows. thanks anyway
[01:41] <gogeta> lol
[01:41] <Pelo> matthew_,   common packages usualy get selected when you select the basic ones
[01:42] <super-6-1> Symian, what card is it?
[01:42] <matthew_> Pelo, okk
[01:42] <Symian> I'm a pretty advanced user, so if someone can help me I know a lot of ways to help you help me.
[01:42] <matthew_> Pelo, what should i do now?
[01:42] <Symian> super-6-1, I actually have two cards. One is a PCI ralink, using the ra2500pci chipset
[01:42] <gogeta> symian adv hua so why havent you fixed it :)
[01:42] <Pelo> matthew_, should be an apply button in the tool bar
[01:42] <Symian> super-6-1, the one I would rather use is a usb ralink ra73usb.
[01:43] <matthew_> Pelo, ok now?
[01:43] <Pelo> pwnt-,  I think you just add a symlink in /etc/init.d
[01:43] <super-6-1> Symian, use the ralink
[01:43] <Symian> super-6-1, both are recognized. Neither seems to be able to assosciate with ANY AP, whether they use encryption or not.
[01:43] <Symian> super-6-1, they are both ralink.
[01:43] <gogeta> symian but relly wireless and linux = flaky
[01:43] <Pelo> matthew_,  they should be installing  aren'T you getting a dialog box ?
[01:43] <excessluggage> I cannot get 1440x900 screen resolution to work.  Could someone please look at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/40584/ and tell me where I'm going wrong?
[01:43] <super-6-1> Symain, use one or the other
[01:43] <matthew_> Pelo, I allready installed them, and am unsure what to do next
[01:43] <Symian> super-6-1, ok, I will. Any further advice?
[01:44] <Pelo> matthew_,  open a terminal and type  ndiswrapper
[01:44] <matthew_> Pelo, ok
[01:44] <mr_wang> i can't install any game what so ever on linux.
[01:44] <gogeta> symian wired always works better
[01:44] <Pelo> excessluggage, what is your video card ?
[01:44] <gogeta> lol
[01:44] <super-6-1> Symain manually setup the internet with network manager
[01:44] <excessluggage> Pelo: radeon x1550
[01:44] <Symian> gogeta, not an option.
[01:44] <matthew_> Pelo, ok now?
[01:45] <Symian> super-6-1, I'm staring at that interface now, and nothing seems to be working.
[01:45] <Pelo> excessluggage,  radon is ati right ?  you'll need to check in the forum , I don'T know what it is ,but there is a special way of adding resolutions for those
[01:45] <gogeta> symian be suprised how well a cheap roughter and 50 ft cables from ebay work
[01:45] <super-6-1> Symian, restart
[01:45] <mr_wang> THE CD IS GONE?
[01:45] <Pelo> matthew_,   I beleive you need to point ndiswrapper to the location ( on your ubuntu partiton) of the .inf file you need to use as a driver for the device you want installed
[01:45] <mr_wang> no cd rom?
[01:46] <Symian> super-6-1, restarting now.
[01:46] <Pelo> matthew_,  at this point I'M just going by feel , I've never had to do this before
[01:46] <super-6-1> Symian , ok
[01:46] <matthew_> Pelo, It says USAGE NDISWRAPPER OPTION
[01:46] <Pelo> matthew_, where does it say that ?
[01:46] <Symian> Actually here is another possible solution. Can anyone tell me of a PCI or USB wireless card that WILL work with linux, completely?
[01:46] <quittt> how do I update Ubuntu to its new version?
[01:46] <Scunizi> Symian, in network manager what's listed as the interface. eth0 or ath0,1 or something else?
[01:46] <Flannel> !upgrade | quittt
[01:46] <ubotu> quittt: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:47] <quittt> Flannel, thanks!
[01:47] <Symian> Scunizi, there are a *lot* of network interfaces on this machine. eth0, eth1, local, ra0, wlan0, wmaster... I think others as well.
[01:47] <excessluggage> Pelo: yeah ati is just the identifier can be pretty much what you want as long as the other sections match.  i just reconfigured using dpkg-reconfigure xserver... as i could not get it to work manually reconfiguring xorg.conf either
[01:47] <Pelo> Scunizi,  check in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport and in the forum for specific models  www.ubuntuforums.org
[01:47] <gogeta> symian as i said its flaky at best in linux 90% of the issues i see are with wireless
[01:47] <matthew_> Pelo, in terminal after i typed in ndiswrapper
[01:47] <Symian> gogeta, you're not being helpful.
[01:47] <JuJuBee> I have a config file in /usr/local/web/config.php and the folder /usr/local/web is owned by admin and the group is a group that www-data is a member of and it has rwx on folder web.  The webserver chokes unless the folder is owned by www-data.  Any ideas.
[01:47] <Pelo> excessluggage, check in the forum for ati resolution  you'll almost certainly find a howto
[01:47] <GABILAN> people
[01:47] <gogeta> blame wireless card makers for not relesing linux drivers
[01:47] <Flannel> JuJuBee: what are the perms on that folder?
[01:48] <Pelo> matthew_, I don'T know anymore , is this for a wifi card ?
[01:48] <Scunizi> Symian, I guess I can assume (dangerous) that you've been through them to see if the card you want to use is connected to one of those?
[01:48] <matthew_> Pelo, yes
[01:48] <super-6-1> Symian, is it back up?
[01:48] <Symian> Scunizi, yes - ra0 and wlan0 are the ones I want to use.
[01:48] <Symian> super-6-1, just up now.
[01:48] <JuJuBee> the web folder is 770 with admin:webgroup perms.  www-data is a member of webgroup
[01:48] <excessluggage> Pelo: thanks I have - but not found an answer to this issue.  Forums are my first port of call.
[01:48] <Pelo> !wifi | matthew_  check in here , I don'T know how to do it , the tutorial should be simple enought
[01:48] <ubotu> matthew_  check in here , I don'T know how to do it , the tutorial should be simple enought: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

[01:51] <Cheek> \can grub read from an mtab mounted folder?
[01:51] <super-6-1> Symian, np
[01:51] <Flannel> JuJuBee: what error do you get?  And simply changing that folder to www-data:webgroup makes it not error?
[01:51] <Pelo> Cheek, grub should be able to boot from any device that is listed and recognised by the bios
[01:51] <JuJuBee> I get errors about reading the config file as well as mysql errors (config has login info)... If I change the owner to www-data it works fine.
[01:52] <Pelo> JuJuBee,  are the files there ?
[01:52] <JuJuBee> Yes
[01:53] <Pelo> JuJuBee, try giving permission to read them  755 should do it
[01:53] <hardeep> Hello, I just finished installing ubuntu on my laptop (an ASUS G1S) and seem to have most things working so far, but the webcam seems to stay permanantly on. How can I turn it off? Can't see to find anything relevant on google.
[01:53] <axjv> Hey, do you guys know how to upgrade from firefox 2.0.0.6 to 2.0.0.7?
[01:53] <gogeta> hardeep unpug it :)
[01:53] <Pelo> hardeep, try the furum  ww.ubuntuforums.org
[01:53] <hardeep> gogeta, it's built into the laptop - so can't lol
[01:54] <JuJuBee> Doesn't make sense.  If www-data is a memeber of webgroup and webgroup has rwx on the folder,  and the files have 644, then why wouldnt the webserver be able to read it?
[01:54] <Denbeiren> anyone any idea how i can sync calendar & contacts on windows and ubuntumachines?
[01:54] <Pelo> axjv, ff will be updated automaticaly through the update manager when an update package becomes available
[01:54] <Scunizi> Denbeiren, what prog. on windows?
[01:54] <hardeep> Pelo, I already did a search on several ubuntu forums. The only one I seemed to be able to find was for a different asus laptop, but the commands didn't work with mine.
[01:54] <Denbeiren> i have a zimbra server, but these two things won't work
[01:54] <Denbeiren> outlook & evolution
[01:55] <axjv> So you can't use the tar file to update it manually?
[01:55] <Pelo> axjv,  you probably could but I don'T know how
[01:55] <Scunizi> Denbeiren, there are a couple of steps.. you have to use thunderbird to get the email stuff off outlook and sunbird to get the calendar..
[01:56] <Yoman> do all programs use the same regexp?
[01:56] <axjv> Oh, okay. Thanks.
[01:56] <Denbeiren> i used to have exchange on an sbs machine,.. but now i'm migrating to ubuntu/zimbra server
[01:56] <excessluggage> guess i'll have to go back to vista :(
[01:56] <dragon81> Hi I am having problems on a Dell optiplex 745  on ubuntu 6.06, it show the splash screen on loading then it appear some msg that says buffer i/o error on device sr0 logical block 24065
[01:56] <Scunizi> Denbeiren, then export to text.csv and import into evo..  Zimbra is on the linux machine?
[01:56] <gogeta> what!
[01:57] <Pelo> excessluggage, what kind of monitor do you have  crt or lcd ?
[01:57] <Scunizi> Denbeiren, if I remember correctly, Zimbra also has an outlook plug-in.. that might work better.
[01:57] <excessluggage> Pelo: lcd
[01:57] <gogeta> dragoon outch
[01:57] <Pelo> dragon81, is ubuntu installed or are you trying to install it ?
[01:57] <gogeta> dragoon eyther the fs is cruppt or the hd is junk
[01:57] <excessluggage> Pelo: using vga not cvi
[01:57] <Pelo> excessluggage, too bad I would have had a suggestion for crt
[01:57] <Denbeiren> they have that,.. but you have to pay for it,.. that wouldn't be a problem,.. but min 25 users is overkill for me
[01:57] <dragon81> running the live cd
[01:57] <excessluggage> Pelo: not dvi
[01:57] <axjv> Do you guys know if awn causes any slowdowns in computers? It seems to make my computer hang a bit at times...
[01:57] <gogeta> its a dell hd is probly junk
[01:57] <dragon81> I did md5sum
[01:58] <dragon81> and apear ok
[01:58] <dragon81> I got installed ubuntu 7.04
[01:58] <Scunizi> Denbeiren, have you tried export from within outlook to a csv file?
[01:58] <Pelo> dragon81,  use the alternate install cd   you can get ti from the dl section of www.ubuntu.com , where you select which version you want  just below the download button there is a checkbox
[01:58] <Denbeiren> the problem is syncing all of the computers
[01:58] <axjv> There might have been a write error
[01:58] <Denbeiren> exporting isn't "doable" every day on every pc
[01:59] <Pelo> dragon81, sorry I guess I misunsderstood your statement
[01:59] <Pelo> dragon81, can you boot the previous kernel ?
[01:59] <dragon81> yeah
[01:59] <dwxreaper> why do i get this error when running the configure script for snort, this is feisty fawn
[01:59] <dwxreaper> adsf /usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory
[02:00] <dragon81> on the  7.04 live runs right but I was look for something more stable and thats why I was going to try 6.0.6
[02:00] <Scunizi> Denbeiren, ah.. so you don't want to get rid of Outlook on the win machines just sync them..  that's going to be really tough without exchange.  Fortunatly, in the near future, koffice will be available for windows and I think it will have a sync or import tool for outlook.. might just have to replace outlook..
[02:00] <axjv> dwxreaper, try
[02:00] <axjv> apt-get install libc6-dev
[02:01] <Denbeiren> i don't care replacing outlook,.. it's just that i really can't get rid of some windows pc's in my network,.. and i do need the synching of calendars,
[02:01] <Pelo> dragon81,  6.06 isn'T less stable then 7.04,  it will just be supported for a longer period for  businesses and such , so they donT' have to keep up with the releases and still get security updates
[02:01] <Pelo> dragon81,  I mean 606 isn' more stable then 704
[02:01] <excessluggage> right totally hacked up my xorg.conf - lets see if i can get a black screen so i can pretend its 1440x900
[02:01] <dwxreaper> ax: one sek
[02:02] <Scunizi> Denbeiren, it would be a kluge, but take a look at sunbird for windows and see if your windows people will use it.. it'll be much easier to sync with that .. Thunderbird and Sunbird combined is called Lightening.
[02:03] <dwxreaper> ax: worked, why doesn't gcc have those object files by default
[02:03] <Denbeiren> there are only two users,.. my mife and me :)
[02:03] <dragon81> but  how about updates and so?

[02:04] <dragon81> hehe the problem is that I am installing like on 25 optiplex
[02:04] <Scunizi> Denbeiren, I know the pain... my wife and i work together and she's on Outlook & Act v6 (arg!) I'm on Dapper 6.06..
[02:04] <axjv> Do any of you know what to open a .run file with? I'm having a little trouble.
[02:04] <Pelo> dragon81, I beleive that 6.06 will get security updates for 4 or 5 years , but the apps will not upgrade ( ie just fixes and security stuff , but no new versions of progs)
[02:04] <Pelo> axjv, what is the filename ?
[02:05] <axjv> It's the game vega strike.
[02:05] <axjv> Hold on
[02:05] <dragon81> actually I only need the core, its for a call center actually
[02:05] <dragon81> thats why I was looking for 6.06
[02:05] <Pelo> axjv,   cd folder  ,  sudo chmod 755 filename.run ,  sudo ./filename.run
[02:05] <axjv> The name is: vegastrike-0.4.3-base.run
[02:05] <axjv> Oh, alright
[02:05] <Denbeiren> so there's no real solution to get evolution and outlook to work together on zimbra (apart from paying 35$/client with a 25client minimum?
[02:06] <dragon81> or do you think 7.04 will do the job?
[02:06] <axjv> I knew it had to be something with terminal
[02:06] <axjv> Thanks.
[02:06] <dragon81> it detected all the hardware correctly
[02:06] <cafuego> axjv: Uh, isn't there a vegastrike package?
[02:06] <cafuego> !info vegastrike
[02:06] <Pelo> dragon81, if you just need to setup a server  there are server cd for each release , no gui just cli
[02:06] <dragon81> even the sound mixe :|
[02:06] <ubotu> vegastrike: A 3d space combat game. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.3-5ubuntu3 (feisty), package size 4776 kB, installed size 12184 kB (Only available for i386 powerpc sparc mips mipsel s390 alpha arm ia64 hppa amd64 ppc64 kfreebsd-i386 kfreebsd-amd64)
[02:06] <cafuego> axjv: sudo apt-get install vegastrike
[02:06] <Scunizi> dragon81, 6.6 is LTS version.. supported for 3 yrs on the desktop and 5 yrs on the server for security.  Gutsy +1 is suppose to be the new LTS version.. Start with 6.06 and upgrade later.
[02:06] <John117>  I just insatalled ubuntu for the first time on my laptop.  Currently, I can't get any usb devices to work.  I have a usb wireless mouse that worked for about 10 seconds then quit.  any suggestions?
[02:07] <Pelo> dragon81, fyi at this point you are getting a bit over my head
[02:07] <eRadic8r> can anyone help with a menu problem?
[02:07] <Pelo> !usb | John117
[02:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about usb - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:07] <Pelo> arghhhh
[02:07] <John117> !usb
[02:07] <Scunizi> !ask | eRadic8r
[02:07] <ubotu> eRadic8r: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:07] <Pelo> John117, try looking for your laptop here to see if there are any special advice  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:08] <dragon81> yeah thats what I read that 6.06 its the best choice for my case but the problem its that it doesn't load in live cd :S
[02:08] <axjv> Thanks, it worked. Just for future reference, does the ./ command have anything to do with compiling or anything? Or is it something else?
[02:08] <phasegen> where do I find the option for killing the pop-up information baloons?
[02:08] <dublpaws> will the kernel in 7.10 include the completely fair scheduler?
[02:08] <Scunizi> dragon81, what kind of error do you get?
[02:08] <eRadic8r> ok...installed alienarena....can double click on crx.sdl to run.....works ok.....when I create link to desktop the link won't work
[02:08] <Pelo> dragon81,  use the alternate isntall cd then
[02:08] <Johny5stillalive> Does the Ubuntu 6.06 LTS server edition support 4 CPU's?
[02:08] <dragon81> Buffer i/0 error
[02:09] <Pelo> phasegen, probabaly somewhwere in  gconf-editor
[02:09] <eRadic8r> also tried the create launcher from desktop...no go
[02:09] <John117> pelo, am i supposed to type !usb in the channel? is something supposed to happen?
[02:09] <dragon81> SQUASHFS: unable to read  fragment cache block
[02:09] <phasegen> thank you
[02:09] <runemaste644> Johny5stillalive: Thatgs a lot of CPUs
[02:09] <Johny5stillalive> runemaste644, :)
[02:09] <cafuego> axjv: No, it has nothing to do with compiling, it just runs an app in the current dir. However, you shouldn't be installing unpackaged downloads of stuff that is available in the repositories.
[02:09] <Scunizi> eRadic8r, did you just install and it's not showing up in the menu's?  if so use the alacarte menu editor to locate the entry uncheck the box then check it again.
[02:09] <dragon81> ok downloading alternate version
[02:09] <overlord> How do I keep the auto mount feature and not allow the mounted drive to be displayed on the desktop
[02:10] <Pelo> John117,  I was trying to trigger the bot but apparently there arenT' any factoids about usb , which is why I then told you to check the hadware page for info  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:10] <runemaste644> maybe theres a #ubuntu-1..... :P
[02:10] <Scunizi> dragon81, sounds like it didn't burn correctly.. you have to burn these iso's at the slowest possible speed.
[02:10] <Pelo> overlord, gconf-editor in  /apps/nautilus/desktop , there is a checkbox for it here
[02:10] <Pelo> John117, I don'T allow private msg, please talk to me in the channel
[02:10] <eRadic8r> it was a zip download from their server...just extracted to /games/alienarena  game works great. just can't get shortcut to work. I've had this problem with quake
[02:11] <mEck0> I wonder if there is a way to make shared folders to use a special icon, like in Windows there is a hand under the icon. I'm using Gnome right now, and I know that you can see shared folders via the menu, but it would be nice to see them in e.g. nautilus directly too.
[02:11] <excessluggage> anyone in here using a 1440x900 screen res that i can nick your xorg.conf file and compare with mine?
[02:11] <dragon81> ooh good point let me test at the lowest speed :D thanks for your time bro :D
[02:11] <John117> pelo sorry.. habit.
[02:11] <Johny5stillalive> help anyone? - Does the Ubuntu 6.06 LTS server edition support 4 CPU's?
[02:11] <Pelo> eRadic8r, what did you put5 in the laucher ? remember that linux is case sensitive
[02:11] <Scunizi> dragon81, np
[02:11] <runemaste644> probly
[02:11] <runemaste644> Ubuntu and Linux is very adaptable
[02:11] <brianves> is there any worry to use rmmod ehci_hcd?
[02:12] <axjv> cafuego, I'm just not used to using the repositories yet... Takes a little getting used to ;)
[02:12] <Pelo> mEck0, find the folder , right click , porperties,  see the icon on the first tab ?   clicky clicky
[02:12] <overlord> Pelo: Thanks :)
[02:12] <Scunizi> eRadic8r, when you create the link are you using ~/ as part of the path direction? if so use the full path /home/xxx/xx
[02:12] <dwxreaper> ERROR!  Libpcap library/headers (libpcap.a (or .so)/pcap.h), not found
[02:12] <eRadic8r> i used the browse function in the menu creater ....feisty btw. it was all lowercase
[02:12] <dwxreaper> when i run the configure script on the latest version of snort, but i have libpcap
[02:12] <Pelo> dwxreaper, search for libpcap in synaptic and install it
[02:13] <axjv> I just started using gutsy 2 days ago =(
[02:13] <dwxreaper> pelo: i did, already was installed, and other software uses it
[02:13] <Pelo> dwxreaper, install the related -dev package
[02:13] <dwxreaper> pelo: k
[02:13] <brianves> is there any worry to use rmmod ehci_hcd?  will the module really be completely removed,  or will it come back after a restart?
[02:13] <gogeta> gusy pwonz
[02:13] <axjv> It'll be removed, but the files won't
[02:13] <SF17> hello??
[02:13] <Ev3rToN> uhaushd
[02:13] <Scunizi> !ask | SF17
[02:13] <SF17> i need help what do u call this thing _ when you type it
[02:13] <ubotu> SF17: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:13] <mEck0> Pelo, you mean the emblems tab?
[02:13] <axjv> You'll need to uninstall the package if you want everything removed.
[02:13] <Pelo> brianves,  expect it to be removed
[02:13] <TaintedTux> OK...I tried upgrading to Gusty today through both update manager and aptitude...my system is broken now, and not upgraded, 34 broken packages but it is apparently impossible to remove or install software on the system. Any Ideas?
[02:14] <Scunizi> SF17, underscore
[02:14] <brianves> so how would you get the module back in there?
[02:14] <scsigov> anyway to watch wmv files on ubuntu?
[02:14] <Pelo> mEck0,  no I mean the first tab you get then the property dialog pops up,  just click the icon
[02:14] <axjv> TaintedTux, did the computer crash in the middle of an update or something?
[02:14] <Scunizi> !restricted | scsigov
[02:14] <ubotu> scsigov: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[02:14] <gogeta> sccigov :)
[02:14] <TaintedTux> no
[02:14] <dwxreaper> pelo: not a programmer kinda hard, getting there, got a lot further in configure
[02:14] <dwxreaper> now says :    ERROR!  Libpcre header not found.
[02:14] <mEck0> Pelo, yeah, and then?
[02:15] <TaintedTux> well the upgrade crashed once
[02:15] <dwxreaper> but looks like another software package libpcap developer stuff might depend on
[02:15] <TaintedTux> then i tried again
[02:15] <Pelo> scsigov, open synaptic , search for  gstreamer  install every single gstreamer0.10 package you see
[02:15] <Pelo> mEck0,  then point it to the icon you want to use
[02:15] <dublpaws> what kernel does 7.10 ship with?
[02:15] <TaintedTux> so it told me to run sudo apt-get install -f...which returns this...dpkg: syntax error: unknown group `root' in statoverride file
[02:16] <Pelo> dublpaws, ask in #ubuntu+1
[02:16] <brianves> so how would you get the module back in there?  sorry for the stupid newbie questions.  I just removed my usb mouse
[02:16] <Scunizi> TaintedTux, you won't like this.. but.. create a new partition for /home and move it using the live CD then reinstall fresh without formatting the new home location.
[02:16] <scsigov> Pelo: 10-4, thanks
[02:16] <TaintedTux> Id love to...except my dd drive isnt working apparently
[02:16] <John117> pelo: it says on my laptop, for external usb mouse, it's okay for fawn.
[02:16] <TaintedTux> this laptop is falling apart but its all ive got for the moment
[02:17] <Pelo> TaintedTux, sounds like you are already in root mode, do thecommand again without sudo
[02:17] <mEck0> Pelo, yeah but the dialog just opens the directory I showed the properties for, where is all the icon files? And I wonder if there is a way to make ubuntu change icon for shared folders automatically like in windows?
[02:17] <John117> pelo: usb flash drive doesn't even work :)
[02:17] <TaintedTux> Ive tried that too
[02:17] <TaintedTux> same thin
[02:17] <TaintedTux> thing*
[02:17] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Pelo, I keep getting an error after it checks the partitions, I tried different Ubuntu versions and I just tried the alternate install. It crashes in the same place, what's wrong with my harddrive?
[02:17] <TaintedTux> unkown group 'root' makes no sense to me
[02:17] <axjv> TaintedTux, you may be able to use dpkg-statoverride
[02:17] <Pelo> John117,  I 've had some issues when more then one device is plugged on "contiguous" usb connectors , try moving other deviced around
[02:18] <TaintedTux> and Im a little lost on ubuntu since im used to arch
[02:18] <TaintedTux> axjv: lemme try that
[02:18] <John117> pelo.. okay..  is a desktop easier than this???
[02:18] <brianves> so how would you get the module back in there?  sorry for the stupid newbie questions.  I just removed my usb mouse.  how do I get the module back?
[02:18] <Pelo> mEck0, try in /usr/share/icons and /usr/share/pixmap
[02:18] <mEck0> Pelo, thx
[02:18] <Pseudo> Hello, everyone
[02:19] <Pelo> John117,  not sure what you mean, it my case I was talking about usb flash drives plugging one in would cause the first one to unmount and then remount
[02:19] <evolipel> so what would you do if, say, iwlist scan reported the right AP and everything, but on the wrong channel?
[02:19] <TaintedTux> what do i need to do with that tho...like i said im normally an arch user...ubuntu newb here
[02:19] <evolipel> because network-manager rolls with it
[02:19] <camgame> hello, I install apache and php in my ubuntu7.04, but i cann't start apache server. when i start apache server, it view: Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp5.so into server: /usr/local/apache2/modules/libphp5.so: undefined symbol: EVP_CIPHER_CTX_block_size
[02:19] <evolipel> and hence doesn't connect
[02:20] <Scunizi> camgame, you might ask that in #ubuntu-server
[02:20] <John117> pelo I've had nothing but problems with getting ubunto to work on this laptop.  Frankly, it's been a pain in the ass..  Is ubunty pretty easy on a desktop?
[02:20] <dwxreaper> how come snort is not in the regular repository for ubuntu
[02:20] <camgame> thanks
[02:20] <axjv> Does anyone know the difference between gksudo and sudo?
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> !gksudo
[02:20] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  - See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[02:20] <Pelo> [MH] NarcismLapto, I don'T know what is wrong with your harddriver,  try booting the live cd again and prepartition your hdd with   menu < sytem > admin > gnome partition editor , that might help,  make a partition for / 5-10 gig  ext3, swap 2xram , and leave the rest for /home  ext3,  then select manual partitionning to when you get to that step in the installer and  point the mount points to the correct partitions
[02:21] <unagi> !wimax
[02:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wimax - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:21] <TaintedTux> axjv: WHat are you saying I should do in dpkg-statoverride
[02:21] <Scunizi> John117, typically.. lappy's can be tough.
[02:21] <TaintedTux> Am I adding a user or removing one?...
[02:21] <Pelo> John117,  it was for me, but I donT realy have any strange or snazzy hardware
[02:21] <IndyGunFreak> Scunizi: laptops are just as easy as desktops, so long as you have compatible hardware
[02:21] <John117> scunizi pelo thanks guys.
[02:21] <Scunizi> IndyGunFreak, true.. but the hardware is the issue..
[02:21] <unagi> im running ubuntu on my laptop
[02:22] <unagi> not major problems
[02:22] <Scunizi> IndyGunFreak, it seems to be a littly quirky-er.
[02:22] <evolipel> !network-manager
[02:22] <ubotu> networkmanager is an application to make (wireless) networking Just Work. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager
[02:22] <John117> unagi what laptop?
[02:22] <julia> julia
[02:22] <IndyGunFreak> Scunizi: well if you have a desktop that has very new hardware, its gonna be just as difficult to set up as a laptop with new hardware
[02:22] <evolipel> so guys...
[02:22] <unagi> pavillion dv6000t
[02:22] <Scunizi> IndyGunFreak, true..
[02:22] <IndyGunFreak> i've not had one single problem with my laptop.
[02:22] <evolipel> how can you set the channel of an AP to something else?
[02:22] <axjv> TaintedTux, hold on just a minute, I'm researching your problem...
[02:22] <IndyGunFreak> or my desktop for that matter
[02:22] <evolipel> because iwlist scan doesn't report the correct one
[02:22] <TaintedTux> axjv:ok...thanks
[02:22] <Pelo> IndyGunFreak, are you trying to get lynch by the channel ?
[02:23] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo: i'm frisky tonight.. :)
[02:23] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Pelo, something incredible happened, I started hitting buttons and I'm in rescue mode, I got as far as.. it asking me what device to use as the root file system. I have two harddrives, a primary and slave, I want linux on the slave. Which do I pick? Options: /dev/hda1, /dev/hda2, /dev/hda5 /dev/hdc1 /dev/hdc2
[02:23] <Innomen> Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.
[02:23] <axjv> TaintedTux: Go into terminal and type sudo gedit /etc/group
[02:23] <John117> pelo indygunfreak is basically an asshole by my assessment.  frisky or not.
[02:23] <unagi> hda
[02:23] <IndyGunFreak> *thinks
[02:23] <Innomen> that happens in mplayer, totem plays sound but no video
[02:23] <John117> thanks? or thinks?
[02:23] <unagi> how many hard drives and partitions do you have
[02:23] <axjv> TaintedTux: After that, you have to look at the line that has root, and make sure it says root:x:0
[02:23] <TaintedTux> axjv:ok...then what?
[02:23] <TaintedTux> ok
[02:24] <evolipel> has anyone had the problem of iwlist scan not reporting the correct channel of an AP?
[02:24] <IndyGunFreak> John117: you're opinion fo me, really matters little..
[02:24] <brianves> I did rmmod ohci_hcd.  now my usb mouse doesn't work.  so how would I get the module back in there?  sorry for the stupid newbie questions.  Is it gone forever,  someone please help.  I'm dumb!!
[02:24] <axjv> TaintedTux: Sorry, I meant root:x:0:
[02:24] <Pelo> [MH] NarcismLapto,  try hdc1 but no garranties, I have no idea where you are at the moment
[02:24] <dwxreaper> if i compile snort myself,running configure , make, make install.  how do i removed it
[02:24] <dwxreaper> it is working, i am just curious!
[02:24] <TaintedTux> axjv: I think i see the issue...there IS NO root
[02:24] <[MH] NarcismLapto> primary has two partitions: c:, e:, c: has windows, e: has files. d: or whatever the hell it is, is ass empty, and has a linux swap partition and a big gaping filespace holes
[02:24] <dwxreaper> i don't see it in add/remove pgorams
[02:24] <TaintedTux> weeeeird
[02:24] <axjv> TaintedTux: Add that line, and reboot.
[02:24] <unagi> what does fdisk tell you
[02:24] <[MH] NarcismLapto> i'm in ubuntu rescue mode
[02:25] <Zasch> Hello. When I load something through the terminal, is there any way to make it so that, if I close the terminal, the program I loaded does not also close?
[02:25] <Pseudo> Gutsy comes out in 5 days correct?
[02:25] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Pelo, I place my linux swap at the beginning of my slave, does that mean i should use hdc2 ?
[02:25] <unagi> zasch alt + f2
[02:25] <brianves> I did rmmod ohci_hcd.  now my usb mouse doesn't work.  so how would I get the module back in there?  sorry for the stupid newbie questions.  Is it gone forever,  someone please help.  I'm dumb!!
[02:26] <Pelo> [MH] NarcismLapto,   I would think so
[02:26] <Snuxoll> brianves: sudo modrpobe ohci_hcd
[02:26] <Snuxoll> *modprobe
[02:26] <Pelo> brianves,  that 'S not a newbie quesiton, if it ti was I would be able to answer it
[02:26] <Zasch> What exactly is gutsy going to change? Is it going to break anything?
[02:26] <evolipel> how can you change the channel of an AP?
[02:26] <vocx> brianves: reboot if you feel like it.
[02:26] <[MH] NarcismLapto> "An error occurred while mouting the device you entered for your root file system (/dev/hdc2) on /target. Please check the syslog for more information
[02:26] <Pelo> Zasch, ask in #ubuntu+1

[02:27] <evolipel> or tell networkmanager to use a different one?
[02:27] <evolipel> or something...
[02:27] <Pelo> vocx, no sorry to disapoint you, please donT' feel to bad, I'm sure you can find another hero,  I think IndyGunFreak  is available
[02:27] <Innomen> Also, dumb does not equal ignorance, ignorance is a curable condition. Dumb is terminal.
[02:27] <unagi> HAH!
[02:28] <unagi> i mean yes.....yes
[02:28] <Innomen> :)
[02:28] <Zasch> is there any way to install Ubuntu to a flash drive?

[02:28] <unagi> dumb
[02:28] <axjv> Zasch: Yes
[02:28] <unagi> =x
[02:28] <dav-e> Is there a program (or guide) to ubuntu customization that runs under Windows?  I found the ubuntu customization kit but it requires being in linux, and since the os just died while upgrading to 7.10 I want to have it customized before I install it.
[02:29] <unagi> but then what do i know..........im looking at porn at work
[02:29] <axjv> Zasch: Just select the partition you want to install to as the flash drive, and be sure there is at least 5 GBs of memory
[02:29] <unagi> haha
[02:29] <vocx> ops?
[02:29] <Pelo> [MH] NarcismLapto,  you said the install crashed, I 'm guessing that the partitionning is done but that nothing is actualy instaled which is why you can'T start from that partition , there is nothing on it , use the live cd to browse it , see if I am right,  if the partitons are done,   use those to instal on,  as previously suggested
[02:29] <brianves> Snuxoll.  Thank you very much.  Pelo.  thanks for the little ego boost
[02:29] <Pseudo> Has anyone had any problems installing compiz fusion on 7.10 beta?
[02:29] <axjv> On which version of Ubuntu?

[02:30] <evolipel> is there a way to tell network-manager to use a different channel?
[02:30] <Pelo> Pseudo,  you'll hav eto ask in #ubuntu+1
[02:30] <Null_Session> pseudo: it comes packaged with 7.10
[02:30] <axjv> Pseudo: If you're talking about Gutsy, it comes preinstalled
[02:30] <unagi> evolipel: what do you mean use a different channel
[02:30] <Pseudo> On the beta?
[02:30] <Null_Session> yup
[02:30] <axjv> Pseudo: All you need to do is install a program called compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:31] <unagi> how do i install windows in ubuntu
[02:31] <evolipel> unagi: for my AP, iwlist scan reports the wrong channel
[02:31] <Pelo> unagi,  install vmware and ten install windows in that
[02:31] <xuyf> hello
[02:31] <evolipel> and I'm pretty sure that network manager uses whatever iwlist scan says
[02:31] <unagi> i thought wireless routers were what dictated the channel not the card
[02:31] <Innomen> Pelo thats genius
[02:31] <axjv> If all else fails, you can use ndiswrapper
[02:31] <unagi> pelo i cant believe i got an answer

[02:31] <Pseudo> Thanks guys :)
[02:31] <vocx> unagi: other virtual machines are Xen, Virtualbox and Qemu
[02:32] <Null_Session> or vmware server. its free also
[02:32] <Innomen> Xen, has a cool name i'll use it *makes windows user decsions*
[02:32] <Pelo> unagi, I can also tell you how to shoot yourself in the foot if you like that sort of thing
[02:32] <dav-e> so, no way to customize the instal cd (alternate) before installing it?
[02:32] <evolipel> unagi: well the trouble is, another machine reports the AP on channel 4; this one says it's 2 and fails at connecting
[02:32] <evolipel> (the other machine connects just fine)
[02:32] <Innomen> pelo: that would imply a funcitong device, windows it more like a blender with the button inside down by the blade
[02:33] <unagi> try manual connection?

[02:33] <axjv> Who's upgrading?
[02:33] <unagi> im downgrading
[02:33] <brianves> how come whenever I start XP in VMware server with my usb thumb drive.  It crashes before login.  it never used to do that!
[02:34] <IndyGunFreak> axjv: question might be, who hasn't upgraded yet
[02:34] <axjv> Haha, true.
[02:34] <unagi> i havent
[02:34] <Innomen> Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device. <---<this mena anything to anyone?
[02:34] <unagi> im too scared to upgrade
[02:34] <Innomen> i wait till its offically out because i like it when you guys help me :)
[02:34] <axjv> The hour after I installed my first ubuntu, I downloaded the latest daily of gutsy and installed that instead.
[02:34] <Pelo> Innomen, I've installed windows on vmware-server on my computer myself, actualy ran my "installed xp" from another hdd inside vmware-server, worked pretty well , but I had one issue with the prog I was using it for and so I disisted,  but for other progs it might actualy work pretty well
[02:35] <stru> Hello, it is only to me or someone has the same experience? using firefox2 + adobe flash does not work well with me, when I change to another tag listen for example youtube it stops 'one second', but using firefox1 with adobe flash all works correct, someone has the same behavior? thanks :), it's firefox1 better?
[02:35] <Pelo> Innomen,  what prog did you get that from mplayer ? xine ? vlc ?
[02:35] <Innomen> pelo: my only desire for xp, is games
[02:35] <Innomen> pelo: mplayer

[02:35] <Zasch> I have another question: Right now I dual boot Windows and Ubuntu, but I use Ubuntu primarily (Windows if I want to use a Windows-only program). However, what I did was I installed GRUB on a floppy disk, and I have to put that disk in my drive every time I want to get into Ubuntu. Is there any way I can make it so I don't have to do this without corrupting Windows?
[02:35] <unagi> thats alot to ask from linux i guess
[02:35] <Pelo> Innomen,  open an blank session fo mplayer( from the menu) ,  go in the preferenes ( settings maybe) in the video tab, select x11
[02:36] <dav-e> ubotu: I don't have any *nix systems right now, since upgrading to 7.10 destroyed that partition.  Is there a way to do it within WIndows?
[02:36] <unagi> whyd you put grub on a floppy
[02:36] <kitche> Zasch: just install grub to the hard drive it doesn't even touch windows
[02:36] <kitche> dav-e: ubotu is a bot :)
[02:36] <dav-e> ah
[02:36] <Innomen> pelo: man, you're astonishing, how in the hell did you know that?
[02:36] <Innomen> of course it fixed my problem
[02:37] <Zasch> kitche: How do I do that now that Ubuntu is already installed?
[02:37] <dav-e> didn't notice
[02:37] <Pelo> Zasch,   if you have ubuntu and windows on different hdd it's easy enough, if you have both on the same hdd, your windows mbr will get re-writen
[02:37] <unagi> because pelo is god
[02:37] <dav-e> vocx: I don't have any *nix systems right now, since upgrading to 7.10 destroyed that partition.  Is there a way to do it within WIndows?
[02:37] <Pelo> Innomen, cause I had this same problem in the past and someone told me how to fix it
[02:37] <Innomen> ok, how about this one, i'm running ubuntu off a docking station, latitude c620, when i plug in the speaking to the headphones port on the station, it still does not play though the speakers

[02:38] <axjv> Hey, does anyone know why the awn dock icons start off way to the left and slowly slide to the center?
[02:38] <eck> if you have an old computer you should figure out why xv isn't working
[02:38] <Pelo> Innomen, cause your sound device is set to use the outlets of the non-docked comp
[02:38] <Pelo> axjv, you'll have to ask the awn ppl
[02:38] <Innomen> pelo: would you like to pull a rabbit out of that hat and tell me how i could adjust this to repair?
[02:38] <Innomen> :)
[02:39] <Pelo> Innomen, my guess is you can'T , not if you want to use the non-docked comp with those devices

[03:19] <Pici> slain: just ask
[03:19] <Pelo> slain,  just ask
[03:19] <Winball> Can I upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy Beta without CD ?
[03:19] <slain> I have just started with iptables and would like to know how to use QoS ?
[03:20] <dannyboy79> Pelo: can you me again, just using sudo crontab -e? I want one script to run every hour, every day. and another to run once at 2 am every day
[03:20] <mattg> slain: just ask...had to say it :)
[03:20] <heguru> Winball: yes you can, for further gutsy discussion join #ubuntu+1
[03:20] <slain> I listen to shoutcast and would like to give 60% of my bandwidth to port 8000
[03:20] <Pelo> dannyboy79, sudo crontab is for apps that need to run as root, if you donT' need root just use crontab ( no sudo
[03:20] <Pici> slain: #iptables should be of more help than here.
[03:21] <heguru> slain: you would need the tc tool with HTB, its high-end stuff, and you should do some reading before asking for help here, goto www.lartc.org
[03:21] <porcho> hi there. Anyone has a working link to beryl PGP key? all I've found until now were broken ones...
[03:21] <axjv> Guys, a little offtopic but; How can I register my nick on freenode?
[03:21] <Pici> !register | axjv
[03:21] <ubotu> axjv: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[03:21] <axjv> Thanks.
[03:22] <dannyboy79> Pelo: I am aware of that. one is using mythrename and the other is to backup my mythtv mysql databases
[03:22] <slain> thanks
[03:22] <dannyboy79> Pelo: also, I thought that you can specify the command to run as a user
[03:22] <Pelo> dannyboy79,   when you type  crontab -e  the first few items are for when   as in minutes, hour, day, week, mont,  so if you want a command to run at two ocloc, the commad will start with     0 2 * * * *  command line here
[03:23] <heguru> slain: if you don't need to know the working of qdiscs and all and just want to do a one time setup, use this script http://sourceforge.net/projects/htbinit/
[03:23] <slain> heguru, thanks
[03:23] <heguru> slain: welcome :)
[03:24] <dannyboy79> Pelo: do I put spaces in between number and commands or tabs?
[03:24] <Pelo> dannyboy79, I only know the most basic stuff about crontab, enough to get a simple command running to restart gdesklets every hour and to run an av during the night
[03:24] <Pelo> dannyboy79, spaces should do , single spaces I beleive
[03:24] <axjv> Pelo: There are AV's for linux?
[03:24] <MattG> offtopic:  want a desklet that has a complete deal of system specs...processor, memory, battery (laptop), etc etc.  any ideas?
[03:24] <heguru> axjv: yes, clamav
[03:25] <dannyboy79> Pelo: so the asterisks mean what, run all the time. meaning it would run daily, monthly, and so on?
[03:25] <Pelo> dannyboy79, but you need the correct number of items    I think your is gonna be 0 2 * * * ,  not four as previously menitonned
[03:25] <cfedde> modern crontab will allow spaces or tabs.
[03:25] <heguru> axjv: well its basically designed to detect mostly windows viruses
[03:25] <Pelo> axjv, yes ther are , mostly so you don'T spread stuff to windows users throught emails and such
[03:25] <axjv> I see.
[03:25] <akrill> axjv: where that firmware you spoke of?
[03:25] <dannyboy79> Pelo: spaces or tabs in between or doesn't it matter?
[03:25] <axjv> akrill: I think that other user offered to send it to you?
[03:26] <Pelo> dannyboy79, the asterix are place olders for the  day week month
[03:26] <cfedde> dannyboy79: not unless you're running solaris.
[03:26] <Pelo> dannyboy79, spaces
[03:26] <axjv> akrill: If not, you can always use the dell drivers in ndiswarpper. They always work fast for me.
[03:26] <cfedde> in crontab * means "all"
[03:26] <akrill> axjv: ya, that would probably work better considering im actually ON a dell. (D620)
[03:26] <akrill> but the dell driver package is HUGE
[03:26] <dannyboy79> Pelo: thanx! Now the script must be exexutable by the person how is running the command and the folder it's writing to must also be writable correct?
[03:26] <Pelo> dannyboy79, the asterix are place holders for the values ,  * means it wll run every .... (min, hrs, day, etc) which ever they are
[03:27] <axjv> akrill: I can send you just some essential files
[03:27] <carol> ola
[03:27] <axjv> akrill: Do you have an AIM or MSN?
[03:27] <cfedde> dannyboy79: by the user or the group.
[03:27] <carol> alguem poderia me ajudar ?
[03:27] <dannyboy79> Pelo: ok, thanks. hopefully I got it now.
[03:27] <akrill> axjv: that would be wonderful! yes i do. my aim is corpor3al
[03:27] <Pelo> dannyboy79, in crontab it will be exectutable when the same current user is logged in
[03:27] <evolipel> does anyone know how to fiddle with channel settings in wireless configuration?

[03:28] <carol> nao estou conseguindo descompactar os arquivos rar
[03:28] <Pelo> dannyboy79,  I suggest you check the command by changing the min and hrs to a few mintutes from now , so you see it start,   if it does start properly you can change the time back to what you need it to be
[03:28] <evolipel> whereas it really is channel 2
[03:28] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Oh jeez, someone please give me another idea to try to fix my problem: On LiveCD (and.. alternate download), install always crashes after it starts the partitioner... I tried every file system, scandicked and checked for errors, anyone have any ideas?
[03:28] <axjv> akrill: Hold on, just quickly downloading the files.
[03:29] <dannyboy79> Pelo: but since you can specify a user for it to run as, it'll run when the machine is on and whoever is logged in right?
[03:29] <akrill> axjv: okiedoke.
[03:29] <dannyboy79> Pelo: if I put it in sudo crontab right?
[03:29] <cfedde> evolipel: is that causing a problem?
[03:29] <novato_br> carol, are u here?
[03:29] <heguru> [MH] NarcismLapto: do you get any error?
[03:29] <dannyboy79> Pelo: good idea!
[03:29] <novato_br> caro, plz go to ubuntu-br, i'll help you
[03:29] <Pelo> dannyboy79,  not sure about that,  it's a bit over my head
[03:29] <evolipel> cfedde: I can't connect to the AP because of it
[03:29] <Pelo> NeedHelp, I don'T allow private msg, please talk to me in the channel
[03:29] <carol> yeah
[03:29] <NeedHelp> I got into the Feisty disc. The HDDs don't show up. Now what? Pelo
[03:29] <evolipel> I have three other machines that work fine with it, though
[03:29] <NeedHelp> k
[03:29] <Pelo> NeedHelp, I think you are screwed
[03:29] <[MH] NarcismLapto> heguru, yes, the title of the error window is: "??? ???" and the contents of it is: "??? ???" and there's a button that says Cancel or Continue
[03:29] <evolipel> and nobody seems to have the same problem
[03:29] <novato_br> so, plz carol go to ubuntu-br
[03:29] <speedy> im trying to set my wireless card to monitor mode form managed but it keeps on giving me errors...can do anything bout it?
[03:30] <heguru> dannyboy79: it will run as the user you specify
[03:30] <carol> ok, thanks
[03:30] <m11> speedy , what chipset is card ?
[03:30] <heguru> [MH] NarcismLapto: are you installing using english language or some other?
[03:30] <Pelo> NeedHelp, start gparted see if the hdds are visible to it

[03:31] <dimeotane> anyone know what window managers other than gnome are on the install cd ?
[03:31] <evolipel> cfedde: also, I can't set it up manually because it uses WPA
[03:31] <NeedHelp> kk
[03:31] <dimeotane> I'm tryna install on a laptop without networking something other than gnome
[03:31] <heguru> [MH] NarcismLapto: is the machine in front of you now? if yes press Ctrl+Alt+F3 (of F4, F5 onwards) so you get the log screen with more details on the error
[03:31] <evolipel> and manual WPA set-up is something that I can't figure out
[03:31] <heguru> evolipel: feisty onwards support WPA via network manager
[03:32] <evolipel> yep, I know, but network manager listens to iwlist scan
[03:32] <heguru> evolipel: gutsy supports wpa using network settings tool
[03:32] <Pelo> dimeotane, none only one manager per cd,  if you want kde you need to get kubuntu if you like xfce you need xubuntu etc, but once any is installed you can get the others over the internet
[03:32] <evolipel> which reports the wrong channels
[03:32] <evolipel> err channel*
[03:32] <evolipel> for my AP
[03:32] <NeedHelp> Pelo, What's the default root password (for Live CD)?

[03:32] <ubotu> evolipel: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:32] <heguru> evolipel: what wireless card do you have?
[03:32] <dimeotane> Pelo: so if I have no networking working yet on this machine I can't get a lite window manager?
[03:32] <[MH] NarcismLapto> heguru, how do I get out of this mode?
[03:32] <axjv> akrill: What's the model of your wireless card?
[03:32] <flyingfree> pelo finally finished with the gstreamer 0.10 install anything else I hsould do?

[03:33] <evolipel> heguru: some card that uses a broadcom chipset -- I'm using ndiswrapper

[03:33] <heguru> [MH] NarcismLapto: which mode? Press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get back to installer screen and Ctrl+Alt+F3 onwards to go to other screens
[03:33] <[MH] NarcismLapto> heguru, I started gParted and was getting errors, I'll record the error I get with just the installation going terribly wrong
[03:33] <akrill> axjv: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev -01)
[03:33] <akrill> er, without the minus before 01 haha
[03:33] <[MH] NarcismLapto> heguru, oh, I lost my gui, panicked and rebooted :)
[03:33] <Pelo> dimeotane, the cd only has the windows manager for that version of *buntu on it , anyother you'll need to dl , either directly or dl the other cd
[03:34] <Pelo> flyingfree, try it ?

[03:47] <joe_> heguru, sorry I clicked on wrong one

[03:47] <NeedHelp> Pelo, I'm having trouble mounting drives
[03:47] <Pauldb> talk...
[03:47] <Pelo> steve1, several ppl have had problems with sound in theamspeak  the only thing I can suggest it to make sure you have the proper device selected in the teamspeak prefs
[03:48] <dannyboy79> Pelo: what is it for once a day at 2 am again, sorry
[03:48] <flyingfree> oops lost the link anyone got the one for upgrades in ubuntu that talks about what printers are supported by the different editions?
[03:48] <flyingfree> I have a canon i860 and I am having problems getting it working with dapper
[03:48] <[MH] NarcismLapto> heguru, and if that doesn't yield anything?

[03:48] <Pauldb> man
[03:48] <Pauldb> did you heard me
[03:48] <Pelo> dannyboy79, that would be correct
[03:49] <tyndareus> hi
[03:49] <heguru> [MH] NarcismLapto: well the errors in gparted point towards the disk being bad, so check that first, the second thing will be your controller module
[03:49] <dannyboy79> Pauldb: i lokked at man cron and man crontab.
[03:49] <dannyboy79> Pauldb: didn't see an examples
[03:49] <flyingfree> pelo still looking for a way to install ab etter wmv codec( I think)
[03:49] <erin> Hi, everyone. Can anyone tell me which channel to go to for help with setting up my wireless connection? Thanks!
[03:49] <dannyboy79> Pelo: thanks for helping and not just pointing me to man!
[03:49] <heguru> erin: is it on feisty/edgy/dapper ?
[03:49] <[MH] NarcismLapto> heguru, tell me more about this.. controller modeule
[03:49] <Pelo> flyingfree, there aren'T any , that 's all there is,  I suggest you try other sites and otherfiles
[03:49] <flyingfree> pelo or some other fix for my audio and no video on all wmv files with mplayer as a plugin or saved and luanched independently
[03:50] <erin> feisty, heguru
[03:50] <Pelo> dannyboy79,  I am the man I have no choice, I would be pointing you to me
[03:50] <erin> Thanks!
[03:50] <heguru> [MH] NarcismLapto: ok sometimes the liveCD can load the not so perfect module for your hard disk controller which can cause all types of problems (timeout, very slow installation etc.)
[03:50] <Pauldb> i think you'renot understanding me, you download a program called kcron (sudo apt-get install kcron) and that program allow you to creat those files automatically
[03:50] <heguru> erin: then its the right place to ask
[03:50] <flyingfree> firefox and mplayer do not support wmv files?
[03:50] <heguru> erin: what is the problem you are facing?
[03:50] <MattG> where is the ./ directory when browsing from the GUI?
[03:50] <Pauldb> well if you prefer to creat the files byyourself
[03:50] <[MH] NarcismLapto> heguru: is it possible that the 7.04 CD does this, the 7.10 CD does this and 6.06 can't even run liveCD?
[03:50] <Pelo> flyingfree, wmv is a MS propriatary format with several versions out, some are jsut like that on linux you'll have to live with it
[03:50] <dannyboy79> Pelo: ha, good one!
[03:51] <flyingfree> ahh okay
[03:51] <flyingfree> I understand.
[03:51] <flyingfree> so it is not a fixable problem
[03:51] <flyingfree> as for the printer now any suggestions?
[03:51] <Syrra> So, I'm trying to do a ./config and it gets to checking for qt and finds it, but when it tests it, it fails so...
[03:51] <heguru> [MH] NarcismLapto: hda5 (or whatever I saw above) cannot be your cdrom as ubuntu cdrom doesn't have partitions, so its your hard disk
[03:51] <Pelo> MattG, what are you asking ?
[03:51] <jotil> MattG: ./ means the current directory
[03:52] <Pauldb> Does anyone want ot play Wormux online here ?
[03:52] <[MH] NarcismLapto> heguru: sometimes I just want to cry
[03:52] <heguru> Syrra: what are you trying to install?
[03:52] <axjv_> !freenode
[03:52] <ubotu> freenode is the IRC network that you're on! See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml
[03:52] <Zambezi> Is it possible to see when a packages was installed?
[03:52] <MattG> im following this guide... (http://flavor8.com/index.php/2006/03/26/how-to-back-up-your-dvds-in-ubuntu/) and when i do ./DVD-Duplicator, it says permission denied
[03:52] <ctrlg> Pauldb: #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[03:52] <Pelo> Syrra,   you need to instal the -dev related pacakge , serach for it in synaptic
[03:53] <flyingfree> how do I get a canon i860 working in ubuntu with dapper
[03:53] <Syrra> I'll try that Pelo
[03:53] <Pelo> MattG,  sudo ./DVD....
[03:53] <bretzel>  hi I need to know where can I get the "rmev" program supposedly comming with gpm... not there... ( mev does not work in X ( xterm... )
[03:53] <zengen> Is the 'akamaru.pc.in' package in the repo the same as the akamaru that comes with the kiba-dock svn?  I'm having trouble configuring it.
[03:53] <Syrra> Does anyone recall the name of the package?
[03:53] <MattG> oh duh thx pelo
[03:53] <erin> heguru: Well, I followed the wiki on setting up my wireless, and the light on the laptop which indicates the wireless is on has turned blue, but my router is not picking up anything. I can't connect to it.
[03:53] <zengen> *configuring the svn version
[03:53] <Pelo> flyingfree,  you can'T find it in the printer list ?  look for a i800 driver and try that
[03:53] <ctrlg> lol
[03:53] <heguru> erin: what wireless card do you have?
[03:54] <Syrra> Oh wait, I have that
[03:54] <erin> Heguru: A Linksys WRT54G
[03:54] <Pelo> zengen, use synaptic and search for akamaru
[03:54] <dannyboy79> Pelo: I got one working but the other one isn't running. It's first line is: #!/bin/sh
[03:54] <heguru> erin: so you are saying that network manager cannot see your wireless network?

[03:55] <erin> Yes, that seems to be it.
[03:55] <ixian_> hi, i am using the latest ubuntu test release, RC1. the installer automatically setup and mounted my partitions automatically, so i didnt have to mess about with fstab. but theres one problem, it enabled writing on my NTFS partition, i want to turn this off. how do i go about doing that? this is the line in fstab:
[03:55] <ixian_> UUID=7CCCFE10CCFDC504 /media/sda1     ntfs    defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[03:55] <dannyboy79> Pelo: that
[03:55] <erin> Heguru: I think I have some setting put together incorrectly
[03:55] <dannyboy79> is it the first line
[03:55] <Pelo> evolipel,  try searching hte fourm www.ubuntuforums.org
[03:55] <heguru> erin: on the terminal run iwconfig and pastebin the output
[03:55] <dannyboy79> it'

[03:55] <ubotu> erin: 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)
[03:56] <evolipel> Pelo: I've searched for days
[03:56] <bretzel> ixian_: edit your fstab and replace ntfs-3g by ntfs ...
[03:56] <Pelo> dannyboy79, first line of what exactly, not hte first line in the crontab command I am sure
[03:56] <ixian_> bretzel, it is ntfs not ntfs-3g
[03:56] <mr_wang> i think i am going to go back yo windows... linux is a freaking prison.. at least in windows i can modfi files in anyway i want... screw this shit
[03:56] <ixian_> i pasted the line :)

[03:56] <Pelo> evolipel, in this channel it is better to ask a specific question then to ask "as anyone ever.... "
[03:56] <Syrra> Okay, what would all the components of a "complete qt installation" be?
[03:57] <dannyboy79> Pelo: oh, you want the line of the crontab?>
[03:57] <heguru> mr_wang: yeah man, in windows any virus/spyware/kid on your network can modify any files in anyway, screw this shit
[03:57] <tyndareus> lol
[03:57] <bretzel> ixian_: dunno then, I would personally unload fuse module, get rid of it --- Too new for me too
[03:57] <fyrestrtr> !language
[03:57] <ubotu> Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:57] <erin> Heguru: Here's the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/m79665cef

[03:57] <mr_wang> are games allowed to be installed? it seems it will not let me install any game what so ever.
[03:57] <EnsGabe> Is there software that'll tell me if I have 1) packages installed that aren't from repositories I have enabled (alternatively, files that aren't in the package database)?
[03:57] <ixian_> bretzel: what is fuse?
[03:57] <ctrlg> mr_wang: what type of games
[03:57] <foxiness> the application 'keyring ...' wants to access... 'unlock password for default keyring in the default keyring'? Deny-Allow once-Always Allow?

[03:58] <dannyboy79> Pelo: 55 * * * * root /usr/local/bin/automysqlbackup.sh
[03:58] <ctrlg> mr_wang: windows games (cd) you will need WINE

[03:58] <dannyboy79> Pelo: I can run it from the command line just fine as myself.
[03:58] <evolipel> Pelo: well yeah, but I've asked several more specific questions before that haven't led me anywhere new

[04:01] <tyndareus> thanks fryrestrtr

[04:08] <dannyboy79> Pelo: I thought in ubuntu bash was mapped to dash or something like that?
[04:08] <foxiness> joe_: gnome-xchat for irc
[04:08] <heguru> erin: click at the one you want to connect to

[04:21] <jsg> bulmer, one of my networking options with virtualbox is to set it as an internal network, do you know what that is?
[04:21] <bulmer> jsg yes, only internal to your host
[04:21] <Pelo> coshx,  go in syanptic loo for the lib,  see ifyou can install the previous version

[04:21] <dannyboy79> Pelo: I also just noticed that my email account is full of emails saying that the script failed because /bin/sh is an unknown command! AH, so it was that also that was wrong
[04:22] <Pelo> dannyboy79, I though that was settled, remove daniel from the line and try it again
[04:22] <jsg> bulmer, ah that might be the solution, ill try that. anyway, thanks very much for your help :)
[04:22] <coshx> Pelo: any idea what lib? just libsubversion?
[04:22] <bulmer> speedy87: only way they can communicate is they have to monitor the broadcast, so describe what your meaning of monitor is
[04:22] <bulmer> jsg come back soon :)

[04:24] <robj232323> no it's an atheros chipset
[04:24] <riotkittie> ah.
[04:25] <speedy87> bulmer: i hav atheros chpset
[04:25] <Pelo> dannyboy79,  or better yet do not put that command in "sudo crontab -e" put it in "crontab -e"
[04:25] <coshx> Pelo: that's what I thought, but that doesn't make sense with the version numbers since openssl is 0.9.3, and libsvn is 1.4.3
[04:25] <bulmer> speedy87: without establishing a connection to the AP right?
[04:25] <speedy87> bulmer: without connecting yes
[04:25] <Pelo> coshx, what  svn is this for ?
[04:25] <riotkittie> atheros is handled by madwifi right?
[04:26] <dannyboy79> Pelo: well it's not my script and I am no scripter. I could try it in my crontab though
[04:26] <bulmer> speedy87: there are tutorials on how to just sniff broadcasted packets..you have to google for this tutorial
[04:26] <erin_> Heguru: Hey, guess what--I rebooted, and now the wireless isn't connecting and isn't showing up in my network connections.
[04:26] <Pelo> dannyboy79, please do
[04:26] <pope> perhaps not the right room, but i can't get stacks to work with kiba-dock
[04:26] <heguru> erin_: you have to load the module again, just type: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[04:26] <robj232323> ndiswrapper -l shows the drivers for usb and chipset... modprobe doesn't do anything
[04:26] <speedy87> bulmer u know what to search under??
[04:26] <coshx> Pelo: I think this might be a botched upgrade from 1.3.2 to 1.4.3 (ran the update utility last night)
[04:26] <Pelo> pope,  definately not the right channel
[04:27] <riotkittie> oh you're doing ndiswrapper.
[04:27] <bulmer> speedy87: try sniffing wireless packets
[04:27] <Pelo> coshx, this is a bit over my head to be honest
[04:27] <erin_> Heguru: Is there any way to do that automatically? When GNOME loads, or something?
[04:27] <heguru> speedy87: are you using ndiswrapper?
[04:27] <heguru> erin_: to have it load automatically, edit the file /etc/modules and at the end of the file add a new line with the word ndiswrapper
[04:28] <coshx> Pelo: actually, I think you really helped me, because runnning svn --version, I got a similar error but for 'dav' instead of 'https', which makes me think it's a botched install.
[04:28] <speedy87> heguru: no....im using the one that comes with feisty...i think its madwifi
[04:28] <bulmer> speedy87: also your wifi driver has to support it, to be in monitor mode
[04:28] <Shrimpy_> is there a program where i can control a friends pc. kinda like remote assisant for windows?
[04:28] <heguru> speedy87: hm, just confirming, madwifi + atheros work with airsnort
[04:29] <coshx> Pelo: yup, I removed libsvn0 (1.3.2) using synaptic, and everything works now. So thanks!
[04:29] <Pelo> Shrimpy_, vnc I think but don't hold me to that
[04:29] <Pelo> coshx, congrats
[04:29] <Shrimpy_> Pelo, ok i'll check it out
[04:29] <heguru> speedy87: you don't have to usually yourself move the driver to monitor mode, running airsnort does that itself
[04:29] <dannyboy79> Pelo: I just noticed that the script itself is owned by root, has rwxr-xr-x, shouldn't anyone be able to run it?
[04:30] <speedy87> heguru: i tried that....it didnt do anything
[04:30] <jotil> foxiness: http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/GNOME.html#INITIALIZATION
[04:30] <Pelo> dannyboy79, change it  man chown
[04:30] <speedy87> bulmer: the driver that im using falls under the restricted driver
[04:30] <erin_> Heguru: Thx, I'll try to reboot again.
[04:30] <heguru> speedy87: you know that you have to stop using your wireless for that to work? disconnect from your network and try again
[04:30] <dannyboy79> Pelo: ok, it ran from my crontab! thanks again. Everything is working!
[04:31] <Pelo> dannyboy79, :-)
[04:31] <speedy87> heguru: oh right now its not connected....its up but not connected to any AP
[04:31] <foxiness> jotil: it take u a lot of time "thank u a lot :)"
[04:32] <Ashfire908> dannyboy79, those permissions would allow anyone to run it, just only is writeable by root
[04:32] <heguru> speedy87: thats how it should be. can you run lspci | grep -n network
[04:32] <jotil> i was looking for a good guide
[04:32] <heguru> speedy87: lets see what specific card you have
[04:32] <EnsGabe> Where's a good place to go for kvm help?
[04:32] <speedy87> heguru: i hav atheros 5006EG
[04:33] <EnsGabe> I'm trying to use a partition for an existing install and I'm getting hard crashes
[04:33] <jotil> you know, i am a newbie. trying to learn by sitting here.
[04:33] <foxiness> jotil: what i am try to say "Thanks for all that time u spend to find this for me"
[04:33] <Shrimpy_> Pelo, you are right!
[04:33] <Pelo> jotil, http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/ http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/ http://www.linuxcommand.org/index.php
[04:34] <Pelo> Shrimpy_, about what ? being useless ?
[04:34] <Shrimpy_> no about vnc. thanks
[04:34] <Shrimpy_> pelo, no about vnc thanks
[04:34] <Pelo> Shrimpy_, oh, ok , glad I didn't mess you up
[04:34] <jotil> heguru, it should be: grep -n Network, it's case sensitive
[04:34] <Ashfire908> how do i download the source used to compile a package?
[04:34] <Ashfire908> *with apt?
[04:34] <Shrimpy_> Pelo: nope you've helped me before among others. you're awesome
[04:35] <UbunutN00b> Hi. When I turn on Desktop Effects, the top piece of my windows disapears. (the section with minimize/maximize/close buttons) How come? It worked fine until I rebooted today.
[04:35] <Pelo> Ashfire908, what are you tring to do  ?
[04:35] <heguru> jotil: ah, i didn't want -n i wanted -i!
[04:35] <heguru> jotil: thanks
[04:35] <zengen> Is there a way to get the kiba-gaim-plugin to work with pidgin?  I'm getting 'No package 'gaim' found' during the plugin ./configure.
[04:35] <Pelo> UbunutN00b, ask in #ubuntu-desktop it's a decorator thing they will be able to fix it for you
[04:35] <UbunutN00b> Pelo, thanks
[04:35] <speedy87> bulmer: ive been reading some documents and my chipset should work under ndiswrapper  or at least its what it says
[04:36] <Ashfire908> pelo: i'm going to recompile the eggdrop package to support longer nicks (i'm aware of the incompatabilty with other versions)
[04:36] <_var> how do I change the font of my terminal
[04:36] <bulmer> speedy87: what i meant is the driver has to allow that monitor mode, some drivers do not allow for such
[04:37] <Pelo> Ashfire908, google for eggdrop,  find the website of the developper,  source will be available on it
[04:37] <jotil> _var: right click on the terminal window and edit the profile
[04:37] <UbunutN00b> oh, one more thing, why is the ool-457cf819.dyn.optonline.net netmask banned? I've never been here before? (I ssh'd to another box so I coudl get in)
[04:37] <Aresilek> I download and installed beryl-kubuntu from the rep., does anyone know how to fire it up?
[04:37] <chris_> can someone help me i got ubuntu rc1 and it keeps saying this with the touchpad... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/40596/

[04:38] <Aresilek> thanks Pelo
[04:38] <Pelo> chris_,  gutsy ? ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:38] <speedy87> bulmer: yea the one im using now doesnt..because its a restricted driver......supposively ndiswrapper does
[04:38] <MattG> I LOVE MY UBUNTU!!!
[04:38] <harry_> When I try to install via apt-get, it gives me "E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)" even though there is no other apt process
[04:38] <astro76> Ashfire908, apt-get source <packagename>, will download the source package to the current directory
[04:38] <Pelo> Ashfire908, most sources should be availalbe from the ubuntu site but not quite sure where
[04:39] <Ashfire908> astro76, thanks, just found it in the man
[04:39] <alka_trash> Hey I heard that there are a lot of users in here.
[04:39] <bulmer> speedy87: ndiswrapper only allows the windows driver to load and use the wifi, its not a driver itself in a strict sense
[04:39] <jotil> _var: aww! i am not your man then. but do let me know if you find how
[04:39] <MattG> sure are, alka_trash
[04:39] <UbunutN00b> alka_trash, there are
[04:39] <Ashfire908> alka_trash, right now, there are 1093
[04:39] <MattG> 1092

[04:40] <jotil> a standard deviation of upto 5 users is allowed
[04:40] <speedy87> bulmer: when i tried airsnort it would only work with wlan-ng
[04:40] <MattG> i'd be an op, heck yeah
[04:41] <speedy87> bulmer: can u tell me how to get wlan-ng and ndiswrapper ?
[04:41] <bulmer> speedy87: i already suggested googling for a tutorial on those, i dont do sniffing daily so i cant remember the steps

[04:46] <boselecta> i tried right-clicking, but the options are about adding launchers to the panel
[04:46] <NeedHelp> help appreciated
[04:46] <Pelo> NeedHelp, donT' do that
[04:46] <Pelo> NeedHelp, what istheproblem explain it
[04:46] <Ashfire908> ok, the purpose of running configure is to make the makefile, right?
[04:47] <NeedHelp> I need to fix Apt-Get
[04:47] <NeedHelp> any way works. (Even from live CD if possible)
[04:47] <heggs> I feel like a teenager again!  I'm on IRC! :)
[04:47] <Pelo> Ashfire908,  the purpose of running ./configure is to check for missing dependencies
[04:47] <weirdbro> Gutsy is getting incorrect DNS record for me. Is there any way to fix this?
[04:47] <Ashfire908> pelo does it do anything else?
[04:48] <robj232323> when i type lsusb, it recognizes my wireless usb device... drivers are installed, but it still won't even turn on
[04:48] <Pelo> NeedHelp,  at this point I think you better use the live cd to backup yor /home folder and re install ubuntu
[04:48] <fuzzyhair> Can someone go to system> sessions> startup programs. Scroll down to something like network manager and tell me what the command is?
[04:48] <boselecta> pelo, fuzzyhair: any other ideas? the program is deleted, but there's stil a vestigial menu entry
[04:48] <Pelo> Ashfire908, not as far as I know,   make will create the instaler and make install is the asctual instal process
[04:48] <jotil> fuzzyhair: tried System > Preferences > Main Menu ?
[04:48] <NeedHelp> I'm having trouble getting to /home
[04:48] <Ashfire908> NeedHelp, cd /home
[04:49] <Pelo> boselecta, menu > system > prefs > main menu
[04:49] <default> what is the gutsy channel?
[04:49] <Pelo> NeedHelp, you'll need to mount the partition first
[04:49] <Pici> default: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy support/discussion.
[04:49] <Pelo> NeedHelp, and you'll need to mount the partition where you want to back it up to
[04:49] <NeedHelp> when I mount them, nothing shows

[04:49] <weirdbro> Is there any way I can see what dns my system has cached?

[04:50] <Dryft> anyone?  having problems extracting a multi volume RAR, man unrar isn't shedding any light on it, and the gtk apps Ive tried don't seem to handle it either
[04:50] <Pelo> Ashfire908, not that I know , it was explained to me , not as well as I have just explained it to you
[04:50] <weirdbro> It randomly caches dns record to the wrong domain sometimes
[04:50] <Ashfire908> weirdbro, /etc/resolv.conf for the dns servers.
[04:51] <jotil> fuzzyhair: this is the command for Network Manager: nm-applet --sm-disable
[04:51] <Ashfire908> weirdbro, the dns could keep changing. the dns servers cache themselves as well
[04:51] <fuzzyhair> jotil; thank you :)
[04:51] <weirdbro> I know
[04:51] <weirdbro> but it didn't happen on feisty
[04:51] <Pelo> Ashfire908, if I may ask , how to you expect to "fix" a source code if you don'T know how to compile a source ?
[04:51] <weirdbro> and it happened ages ago on a gutsy beta and again now
[04:51] <NeedHelp> when drives are mounted, nothing shows pelo
[04:51] <Dryft> nevermind, had to open the archive with the app already open
[04:51] <Pelo> NeedHelp, nothing shows where ?
[04:52] <Pelo> NeedHelp, what are you expecting to see that you donT ?
[04:52] <Ashfire908> Pelo, i have compiled before, i just don't know if the apt-get source is precompiled
[04:52] <NeedHelp> in the folder for the drive pelo
[04:52] <NeedHelp> files
[04:52] <Ashfire908> Pelo, er, preconfigured
[04:52] <Pelo> NeedHelp, one by one,  paste the command you use , exactly
[04:52] <Voodoo_John> whats the chmod command to set a folder to let any1 read and write?
[04:52] <NeedHelp> I was using what you told me to use
[04:52] <NeedHelp> to create mount point and mount...
[04:53] <NeedHelp>  pelo
[04:53] <bruenig> Voodoo_John, +rw
[04:53] <Pelo> NeedHelp, the ones I told you to use didn'T have all the info in them, theywere sort of generic,  retype here the exact commands you typed
[04:53] <Voodoo_John> chmod a+rw folder ??
[04:53] <skyrocker67> well alt f12 did nothing alt ctrl gave me nothing byt a blank screen and flashing cursor anything alse for kicks
[04:53] <NeedHelp> I don't remember them
[04:53] <bruenig> no a
[04:53] <Voodoo_John> or just chmod +rw folder
[04:53] <Voodoo_John> kk
[04:54] <NeedHelp> I can input the specifics info you
[04:54] <NeedHelp> need pelo
[04:54] <skyrocker67> brb
[04:54] <Pelo> NeedHelp, please do

[04:54] <NeedHelp> those were ones in GParted
[04:54] <weirdbro> Ashfire908, resolv.conf changes itself back to my old dns servers
[04:55] <Pelo> NeedHelp, didyou use capitals ?
[04:55] <weirdbro> but 5 know its a gutsy bug
[04:55] <weirdbro> and not my dns servers
[04:55] <NeedHelp> no
[04:55] <jotil> Voodoo_John, what permissions do you want to give?
[04:55] <Pelo> NeedHelp,  give me the dev of the partition where your /home is located please
[04:55] <weirdbro> because it gives back other sites that I've recently accessed to the wrong domain
[04:55] <Ashfire908> weirdbro, then your servers are being autoconfiged
[04:55] <NeedHelp>  /media
[04:55] <Ashfire908> weirdbro, check yuor router/gateway/modem
[04:55] <NeedHelp> pelo
[04:56] <Pelo> NeedHelp, no,  the /dev/hdwhatever
[04:56] <Pelo> NeedHelp,  and please put my nick in the same line , not in a seperate one
[04:56] <weirdbro> Ashfire908, its not a problem with the dns servers, its fine on another windows computer in the network
[04:56] <NeedHelp>  /media/hdb1
[04:56] <NeedHelp>  /media/hdb1 pelo
[04:56] <NeedHelp> gtg
[04:56] <NeedHelp> I'll check later
[04:57] <Pelo> NeedHelp, /media/hdb1 would be the mount point , not the partiton,  partitons start with /dev , you can get those from gparted
[04:57] <NeedHelp> ty
[04:57] <Ashfire908> weirdbro, well if it's a gusty issue, check #ubuntu+1
[04:57] <NeedHelp> bye

[04:58] <agent47a> my gnome environment appears hosed =(  gconf/corba errors.  i can still use KDE though.  i just installed google-desktop and did an update and thinks just went poof.  i want to remove as much of gnome as i can an reinstall it while leaving most of KDE and the kernel intact.  any advice on how to do that?
[04:58] <bruenig> indeed
[04:58] <bruenig> gconf, chuckle
[04:59] <glangston> how to upgrade from beta to release candidate?
[04:59] <ganymede> hey, what was the name of the script that allows to edit which rc.d srcipts start up at each bootlevel?
[04:59] <ganymede> i think it was a ncurses perl script
[05:00] <agent47a> bruenig:  has it happened to others?
[05:00] <bruenig> gconf just makes me chuckle because it is so retarded
[05:00] <skyrocker67> nothing is working
[05:00] <xailan> Maybe someone in here can help me?
[05:00] <jotil> _var: try section 9.3 http://linux-7110.sourceforge.net/howtos/series5mx/5MXHOWTO/5MX_howto_9.htm
[05:01] <fevel> cn someone help me share a folder between two ubuntu boxes??
[05:01] <fevel> I already set it up using nfs but it doens appear
[05:01] <jotil> ganymede, was it initd?
[05:01] <xailan> Sorry to be a bother seems like everyone needs help.
[05:01] <skyrocker67> tried chmod +rw rc5.d and chmod +rw S20firestarter and nothing
[05:01] <fevel> ubotu, !ask
[05:01] <agent47a> bruenig: this gconf stuff has me wracking my brain...  first time i don't know what to do.  i might just have to reinstall completely.
[05:01] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:01] <bruenig> skyrocker67, those are symlinks
[05:02] <bruenig> agent47a, avoid all registries at all costs
[05:02] <xailan> that seems simple enough
[05:02] <skyrocker67> trying to get fire starter to show up in task bar when ubuntu starts the desktop
[05:02] <bruenig> skyrocker67, yeah you need to setup a sudoers exception
[05:02] <ganymede> jotil: i don't think so. maybe it wasn't perl. it was a table of [ ]  and [X] 
[05:02] <bruenig> skyrocker67, but why do you want to do that?
[05:03] <ganymede> jotil: with runlevels along the top axis and scripts along the left-side axis
[05:03] <skyrocker67> because i like it that way thats all
[05:03] <heartsblood> could somebody explain why telnet and ssh daemons are disabled (or not even installed I can't find the configs) in the default desktop feisty build, and how to install them?
[05:03] <bruenig> skyrocker67, so it is a pointless thing?
[05:03] <xailan> Well, I just switched to Ubuntu and so far so good. Except, when I boot my comp, the moniter dies and turns off. I had the same problem when I was running the live CD. That is until I set it from VGA to 1024 x whatever.
[05:04] <skyrocker67> i want to know that firestarter is running without having tosudo it everytime
[05:04] <heartsblood> sudo apt-get install sshd = no such package
[05:04] <bruenig> skyrocker67, firestarter is a front end
[05:04] <agent47a> will there be an upgrade path from RC to 7.1 Final?
[05:04] <skyrocker67> i now that
[05:04] <EnsGabe> heartsblood: openssh-server
[05:04] <bruenig> skyrocker67, ok so that it is showing up in your tray has no impact on whether or not iptables is running and doesn't even indicate that it is running at all
[05:04] <xailan> So I was wondering, how the heck do I boot without having to boot in safe mode?
[05:05] <heartsblood> ah
[05:05] <skyrocker67> for some reason it would just make me feel safer
[05:05] <heartsblood> ty
[05:05] <oyabin> irc.a0hell.net
[05:05] <bruenig> skyrocker67, yeah well there is a way to do it but it is involved, read up on editing sudoers
[05:05] <heartsblood> that still doesn't explain why fiesty didn't have it.  I've never heard of a linux install that didn't come with ssh setup.
[05:05] <skyrocker67> ok
[05:05] <heartsblood> with a* ssh setup.
[05:06] <fevel> can someone help me share a folder?
[05:06] <Jupp> fevel, share with windows?
[05:06] <fevel> Jupp, no share with another ubuntu
[05:07] <xailan> Can someone help not have to boot my computer in safe mode?
[05:07] <fevel> xailan, what do you mean safe mode?
[05:07] <fevel> xailan, is your monitor crt?
[05:07] <xailan> Yeah
[05:08] <fevel> then edit your xorg and set it to 1024x768
[05:08] <xailan> I do not know how to do that. I read something about it, wrote the instructions down and tried it and it said unknown command
[05:09] <skyrocker67> bye all thanks for the help tonight
[05:09] <fevel> are you logged on?
[05:09] <xailan> yeah
[05:09] <fevel> then
[05:09] <Jupp> fevel, do want to use nsf or samba?
[05:09] <urthmover> praise the gun Zardoz
[05:09] <fevel> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:09] <Jupp> nfs, I mean
[05:09] <fevel> nfs
[05:09] <GBenemy> how do i send messages to other users?
[05:09] <fevel> since I already installed it
[05:09] <xailan> And I type that where?
[05:10] <xailan> lawls
[05:10] <fevel> then you find your resolution
[05:10] <fevel> see if its higher than 1024x768
[05:10] <aolaus> hey guys, anyone available for support?
[05:10] <GBenemy> depends on what you need
[05:10] <dimeotane> lspci doesn't show my pcmcia etherlink card... what should I try next?
[05:10] <aolaus> I have a weird problem with my intel 3945 abg card
[05:10] <Jupp> fevel, sorry I've only dealt with samba
[05:11] <fevel> hummm
[05:11] <aolaus> I'm running feisty on a t60
[05:11] <fevel> seems I have to mount nfs
[05:11] <GBenemy> O_O
[05:11] <fevel> is that right folks?
[05:11] <aolaus> it's worked before.. it can't seem to authenticate the passphrase
[05:11] <aolaus> just hangs there and prompts again
[05:11] <GBenemy> :S
[05:13] <GBenemy> how do i send messages to another user logged into the same computer?

[05:14] <erin> Hey, I have another mystery for you all! Since you rock as much as you do, you may be able to fix this. Basically, right after my intro splash screen's progress bar loads, the screen on my laptop starts to slowly turn white. This happened when I installed Ubuntu on this computer (a Presario laptop), only it just stayed white. I fixed it somewhat by adding "vga=792" to the boot instructions and the menu.lst file, but it still does
[05:14] <erin> it a little bit before GNOME asks for my  password. Any ideas? Can I add "vga=792" earlier or something? Thanks!
[05:15] <fevel> wooof
[05:15] <GBenemy> lol is it still going?
[05:15] <TriGz_> Can anyone help me with installing something (ophcrack)
[05:15] <nixternal> thanks Amaranth
[05:15] <aolaus> yes, it's not going away
[05:15] <fevel> Amaranth, I dont think he knew the rules =)
[05:15] <Telroth> hey, can someone do me a quick favor? can someone list to me all of the groups that the default user is in?
[05:15] <akrill> i always get a giggle when i hear the kick sound on colloquy
[05:15] <Amaranth> nixternal: No waiting, if he comes back his buffer is cleared
[05:15] <fevel> poor dude
[05:15] <nixternal> ya, he made an easy mistake
[05:16] <GBenemy> what? easy mistake?
[05:16] <TriGz_> I do.. ./configure but i cant do "make" or "make install" any idea why? ;o
[05:16] <GBenemy> the first time i ever came into this channel, i didn't know the rules
[05:16] <Sephiroth> I would like to install this plugin for GIMP, but seeing as GIMP was preinstalled, how would I go about it?
[05:16] <Abraxas`> hello
[05:16] <Sephiroth> http://registry.gimp.org/plugin?id=8799
[05:16] <bruenig> TriGz_, does ./configure go through without errors
[05:16] <fevel> is there an easy way to share through nfs?
[05:16] <GBenemy> pasted 5 lines, and got booted, and everyone refused to help me
[05:16] <Amaranth> If you have a large buffer from a paste built up when you leave or are removed from this channel the buffer goes away and you can use your client again
[05:16] <TriGz_> Ophcrack
[05:16] <TriGz_> oops, pasted wrong thing, sec ^^
[05:16] <Amaranth> I try to kick because most people have autorejoin on kick

[05:16] <tsukasa__> anyone have any luck installing awn? i added the repo and did an apt-get install avant-window-navigator-bzr and it says depends libwnck18, although i have libwnck22 and did a manual compile of libwnck18
[05:16] <TriGz_> bruenig: *** Could not run GTK+ test program, checking why...
[05:17] <TriGz_> *** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
[05:17] <TriGz_> *** exact error that occured. This usually means GTK+ is incorrectly installed.
[05:17] <tsukasa__> so help?
[05:17] <fevel> GBenemy, you shouldnt do that. My connection is really slow and I use terminal access that can cause real problems for me
[05:17] <Abraxas`> stupid question..someone's trying to hack into the ftp server (proftpd) on one of my computers using a completely invalid username...it's flooding my logs but I think I'm safe...is there anything I should do to block him entirely or make sure he doesn't modify his tactic and succeed?
[05:17] <bruenig> TriGz_, yeah see, you want to deal with that before you go to make
[05:17] <TriGz_> bruenig: any ideas? ;o
[05:17] <GBenemy> yes, i know that /now
[05:17] <kc5hwb2> sup, ninjas
[05:17] <Pici> tsukasa__: make sure that you have the -dev version of libwnck too
[05:17] <bruenig> GBenemy, good idea to read the topic
[05:18] <GBenemy> lol i /know/
[05:18] <TriGz_> bruenig:  nevermind, stupid question!
[05:18] <GBenemy> but the /first/ time i came in here, i didn't
[05:18] <kc5hwb2> doesn't Ubuntu have a Skype install?
[05:18] <Abraxas`> looks like a very low level automated tactic meant to get into an NT box...I still don't like my log getting filled with this crap
[05:18] <fevel> kc5hwb2, depeds...64 bits has some issues
[05:18] <jotil> kc5hwb2, sudo apt-get install skype
[05:18] <kc5hwb2> using 32
[05:18] <erin> Hi, everyone. Could someone please help me out with my monitor issue? Thanks!
[05:18] <tsukasa__> Pici, i do
[05:19] <fevel> then just follow jotil
[05:19] <fraggle09027> i think he will have to add the repositories for skype, correct?
[05:19] <fevel> yes
[05:19] <heartsblood> erin: yes
[05:19] <kc5hwb2> pethey are added
[05:19] <kc5hwb2> they
[05:19] <kc5hwb2> search shows nothing
[05:19] <heartsblood> er sorry, that was yes to Fraggle09027
[05:19] <Abraxas`> anyone suggest what I should do?  This hack attempt is going on as I speak...
[05:19] <IcemanV9> !ask | erin
[05:19] <ubotu> erin: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)

[05:20] <bruenig> kc5hwb2, no it doesn't have it, skype is a proprietary program
[05:20] <GBenemy> kc5hwb2: just www.skype.com/
[05:20] <GBenemy> download the .deb
[05:20] <fevel> you should download skype from their main page
[05:21] <jotil> howcome mine does?
[05:21] <Abraxas`> so I worry that he might stop using this login name and might try something else...can anyone suggest the best bet for ftp security decisions, or should I just ignore this attempt altogether?
[05:21] <heartsblood> is inetd just not configured for the desktop version of feisty?
[05:21] <kc5hwb2> ok, I will go to the site
[05:21] <heartsblood> apt is telling me the package is no longer needed, wtf mang?
[05:21] <aolaus> hello, anyone know wireless?
[05:21] <fevel> does anyone master nfs sharing
[05:21] <fevel> I dont know how to share
[05:21] <underwatercow> Why is it that when my computer is starting and it lists the services and such it is starting, firestarter says "FAILED"?
[05:21] <mehevi> crap my terminal is all symbols after I cat matchbox window manager program!

[05:22] <mehevi> well ok, how do I restore it?
[05:22] <aolaus> authenticating onto a 2wire home network
[05:22] <xailan> sorry about that guys
[05:22] <bruenig> mehevi, close the terminal
[05:22] <aolaus> on feisty
[05:22] <aolaus> it takes the passphrase and does nothing
[05:22] <kc5hwb2> cool, they have one specifically for Fiesty
[05:22] <xailan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/40598/
[05:22] <mehevi> bruenig it is not an x terminal window
[05:22] <bruenig> mehevi, switch to another vc
[05:22] <xailan> Anyways, that is what I pasted
[05:23] <Pici> tsukasa__: Hm.  You could try a `apt-get build-dep avant-window-navigator`
[05:23] <Abraxas`> hello...I have proftpd up and someone has been trying to log into it as "Administrator" for over an hour (invalid username)..is there anything I can do to deal with this person?
[05:23] <mehevi> Abraxas` ban the ip
[05:23] <Pici> tsukasa__: -bzr if that doesnt work
[05:23] <bullgard4> What is meant by 'platform device'?

[05:23] <underwatercow> How do I know if firestarter is running when I close the interface?
[05:23] <Snuxoll> I have made the specs for a $600 Ubuntu Mac Mini :)
[05:23] <Abraxas`> mehevi, can you point me to docs to explain how? i skimmed through proftpd's docs
[05:23] <erin> aolaus:  This sounds like what happened to me earlier. Can you left-click and tell me what you see?
[05:23] <Pici> Abraxas`: blacklist the ip from firestarter
[05:23] <Abraxas`> ok, firestarter
[05:24] <aolaus> left click what?
[05:24] <fraggle09027> kc5hwb2 you could just add deb http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/ stable non-free to /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:24] <ki4cgp> Hi, I installed LAMP, and having problems with .php* files wanting to download instead of being processed.  myphpadmin works, but my other php app tries to download each time.  Anyone have any suggestions?
[05:24] <Abraxas`> i actually don't have firestarter in use right now ;p
[05:24] <heartsblood> are the lamp packages in server ubuntu configured for standalones or inetd?
[05:24] <jotil> underwatercow, ps -el | grep -i firestarter

[05:24] <Pici> Abraxas`: Are you running -server? or do you have X running?
[05:24] <Snuxoll> heartsblood: Standalones
[05:24] <aolaus> both networking and wireless are enabled
[05:24] <heartsblood> ...
[05:24] <Abraxas`> Pici X running
[05:24] <mehevi> bruenig I have switched from one to the other (did that first) am I just going to have to eat the fact that that terminal is going to look like dwarven fortress until I reboot?
[05:25] <underwatercow> jotil: that's what I thought... any idea why the service isn't auto-starting?
[05:25] <Snuxoll> Abraxas`: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-server
[05:25] <Pici> Abraxas`: Then firestarter would probably be the easiest.
[05:25] <Snuxoll> That'll get lam setup
[05:25] <Abraxas`> pici: just installed firestarter now
[05:25] <Pici> Snuxoll: er? why?
[05:25] <erin> aolaus: Were you ever asked for a keyring password?
[05:25] <Snuxoll> nm, wrong person
[05:25] <jotil> firestarter? nope. no idea.
[05:25] <Snuxoll> ki4cgp wanted that
[05:26] <aolaus> um, I nuked that
[05:26] <Pici> Snuxoll: Ah :)
[05:26] <aolaus> got annoying
[05:26] <aolaus> so I reset it
[05:26] <heartsblood> Snuxoll: so if I want ssh/telnet/apache/ftpd to be run through inetd I have to configure them myself?  I dont see the logic in that
[05:26] <xailan> fevel you around?
[05:26] <aolaus> but yes, on startup
[05:26] <ki4cgp> Snuxoll?
[05:26] <Snuxoll> heartsblood: Most server's don't need inetd
[05:26] <fevel> yes
[05:26] <DirtyBecky> ?
[05:26] <DirtyBecky> ok
[05:26] <Snuxoll> ki4cgp: to fix your php problem install the ubuntu-server metapackage
[05:26] <prohna> question time!
[05:26] <erin> aolaus: What do you mean, you nuked it?
[05:26] <heartsblood> Snuxoll: true, but the desktop version of feisty isn't even configured for inetd.
[05:27] <DirtyBecky> thanks
[05:27] <heartsblood> I'm just trying to find the middle ground
[05:27] <DirtyBecky> yes, I know
[05:27] <DirtyBecky> thanks
[05:27] <ki4cgp> Snuxoll, ahh, ok.  Should I do a massive uninstall?
[05:27] <fevel> how do I install smb share support?
[05:27] <prohna> feisty ubuntu and firefox crashes on me randomly whenever i use flash
[05:27] <xailan> I sent you the results of my resolution, I do not know what to look for
[05:27] <Snuxoll> If you are installing server apps in the first place you can probably assume that you don't want xinetd
[05:27] <fevel> network doesnt ask me if I want to iNSTAll anymore
[05:27] <aolaus> I found the keyring file in gnome2 directory
[05:27] <aolaus> and deleted it
[05:27] <DirtyBecky> there is one on the site, but it isn't recommended
[05:27] <azrail> Hi, I was wondering if this is the place to ask for some configuration help
[05:27] <aolaus> allows me to reset the keyring
[05:27] <Snuxoll> ki4cgp: Nah, the ubuntu-server package will hopefully fix your issues without an uninstall
[05:27] <aolaus> to something I can remember lol
[05:28] <mehevi> DirtyBecky who are you talking to?
[05:28] <DirtyBecky> yes
[05:28] <heartsblood> prohna: if your using the nv driver I recomend using the restricted 'nvidia' driver.  I had the same problem until I upgraded.
[05:28] <erin> aolaus: Sorry, I'm pretty new at this. Yes, that would force it to create a new keyring. Did you restart the computer after that?
[05:28] <ki4cgp> Snuxoll, ok.  I'll give it a shot.  Thanks!
[05:28] <Snuxoll> np

[05:29] <DirtyBecky> that can't be done!

[05:30] <dimeotane> dmesg shows my pcmcia card but lspci doesn't ... any suggestions?
[05:30] <heartsblood> prohna: I would recomend asking how to install the new open source radeon drivers, I've never used an ati in linux.
[05:30] <hhp2k> Snuxoll: What's VNC?
[05:30] <Snuxoll> hhp2k: Do you want to use the CLI or the GUI to control it?
[05:30] <xailan> Can someone help me with my resolution problem?
[05:30] <tsukasa__> Pici, didnt work
[05:31] <ki4cgp> Snuxoll, no package named that.  did apt-cache search and found some hits, but nothing that screams out ubuntu-server
[05:31] <tsukasa__> Pici, well it worked but it didnt fix the problem
[05:31] <hhp2k> Snuxoll: GUI.
[05:31] <DirtyBecky> VNC has infested my machine and must be destroyed
[05:31] <Snuxoll> hhp2k: system -> preferences -> remote desktop
[05:31] <Pici> tsukasa__: Odd.  Perhaps theres something weird going on with the awn repo
[05:31] <prohna> heartsblood, that sounds like a hard one
[05:31] <tsukasa__> Pici, well compiling it from scratch gives me the same troubles
[05:32] <Snuxoll> hhp2k: Another option is XDMCP, but VNC is easier to setup
[05:32] <tsukasa__> Pici, so i dont think thats the case
[05:32] <hhp2k> Snuxoll: Well, what I meant by having two machines beside each other, is there's two monitors as well. I want something like Stardock's Multiplicity for Windows.
[05:32] <heartsblood> prohna: Na, i'm sure there are ati drivers in the apt repository.  but as I said before I've never worked with ATi before so it's best somebody who has recomend the packages.
[05:32] <prohna> heartsblood, okay
[05:32] <DirtyBecky> I had one at one time, but it smelled of garlic so I uninstalled it
[05:32] <prohna> anyone wanna recommend what ati drivers to use with feisty fawn?
[05:32] <bullgard4> What is meant by 'platform device'? Example 1: (Wikipedia) "Linux distributions including Debian GNU/Linux, MontaVista Linux, openSUSE, Yellow Dog Linux, Gentoo Linux and Crux PPC are also available for the Pegasos. Support for the Pegasos as a platform device has been integrated into the Linux kernel mainline as of kernel version 2.6.13. --  Example 2: (Device Manager) "Platform device (pcspkr)".
[05:33] <xailan> When I boot my computer after intalling Ubuntu, the moniter turns off, any ideas on how to fix that?
[05:33] <DirtyBecky> i have one, you want a copy?
[05:33] <prohna> xailan, id try and reinstall
[05:33] <ki4cgp> xailan, its possible the screen rates are out of range
[05:33] <hhp2k> xailan: The monitor itself actually turns off?
[05:33] <prohna> but then again thats from a noobs opinion so i wouldnt listen to me either
[05:33] <heartsblood> xailan: your refresh rates are off.
[05:33] <TriGz_> I have a problem. While trying to install Optcrack, i got an error about GTK+, ive downloaded GTK+ but cant install it because i cant makeinstall >.<
[05:34] <xailan> well, I know that it has something to do with my resolution.
[05:34] <DirtyBecky> ok, sending now
[05:34] <hhp2k> xailan: Or does it remain powered, but the screen goes black?
[05:34] <IcemanV9> prohna: ATI driver (open source) is installed by default ... my hp laptop have radeon driver and it runs just fine.
[05:34] <DirtyBecky> 4
[05:34] <DirtyBecky> ok
[05:34] <xailan> When I ran the live CD, it did the same thing until I changed the resolution.
[05:34] <heartsblood> TriGz_: sudo make install
[05:34] <IcemanV9> !resolution | xailan
[05:34] <prohna> IcemanV9, so you dont have issues with flash?
[05:34] <ubotu> xailan: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[05:34] <xailan> right
[05:34] <xailan> remains powered
[05:34] <heartsblood> TriGz_: but why are you trying to compile the package yourself?  sudo apt-cache search gtk
[05:34] <prohna> IcemanV9, it closes my browser randomly such as when i play with line rider or fl0w
[05:35] <m11> show can i list users on system ?
[05:35] <hhp2k> xailan: Okay. It probably has to do with the resolution, or the sync ranges. What size is your monitor, 15, 17, 19 inches.. higher
[05:35] <IcemanV9> prohna: nope .. it doesn't crash at all ... i am using v9 .. however v7 caused plenty of problems
[05:35] <prohna> hmm
[05:35] <kcs80> prohna: i guess it is not just the flash, is is some hardware combination with amd processors
[05:35] <prohna> any idea what other might be the cause?
[05:35] <xailan> I think it is just 17. it is a CRT
[05:35] <TriGz_> heartsblood: sudo make install doesnt work either. gives me an error about GTK+? >.<
[05:35] <hhp2k> xailan: Have you ever reconfigured xorg.conf before?
[05:36] <fevel> will apt-get install smbfs turn on windows share support??
[05:36] <xailan> no
[05:36] <prohna> kcs80, or IcemanV9 how would i go about trouble shooting whats causing this?
[05:36] <IcemanV9> prohna: which browser do u use?
[05:36] <azrail> q
[05:36] <xailan> fevel was in the middle of  helping me do it, and I was kicked out of the chat
[05:36] <prohna> i tried running firefox from terminal to look for errors
[05:36] <hhp2k> Anyone wanna guide xailan through reconfiguring his xserver? I have to go unfortunately..
[05:36] <prohna> and it comes up with nothing
[05:36] <kcs80> prohna: I had the same problem with my athlon with nvidia, flash crashed firefox all the time... a mistery, sorry :(
[05:36] <fevel> xailan, sorry cant really help you right now...got a problem of my own
[05:36] <heartsblood> TriGz_: sudo sh -c './configure; make; make install'
[05:37] <ki4cgp> xailan, I would google around for the monitor and get the specs for your horizontal and vertical refresh rates and write them down.  You'll want that info for configuring X if ubuntu doesn't get the detection right
[05:37] <IcemanV9> prohna: usually log files would be the one to troubleshooting
[05:37] <dxdt> why can't I enter a directory I have permissions for?  I'm the owner and have r in all three areas??
[05:37] <xailan> No that's fine.
[05:37] <prohna> does firefox have its own log files?
[05:37] <heartsblood> TriGz_: but as I said before, your better off getting GTK+ from apt.
[05:37] <hhp2k> xailan: There's many guides online about reconfiguring your xserver, and yes, make sure you find out what your monitor's sync rates are.
[05:37] <IcemanV9> prohna:  are u running on 64 or 32?
[05:38] <erin> Hi, everyone. How can I stop my laptop screen from turning white and freaking out between the splash screen and the GNOME login? Thanks!
[05:38] <xailan> the one that i found said to delete all the other resolutions, other than the one I know works
[05:38] <TriGz_> heartsblood: will try it
[05:38] <fevel> can someon help me hve smb share support?? I already installed smbfs
[05:38] <projecttt> Hi all. one of my drives got formatted.  it was ext3 and now it is a osx file system.  is there anyway to revert back or get my ext3 data from it?
[05:38] <prohna> i think 64
[05:38] <ki4cgp> xailan Yeah, the multiple resolutions are there so you can shift through them
[05:38] <IcemanV9> erin: could be hardware problem
[05:39] <IcemanV9> prohna: ah. it is known problem with flash on 64 ... i am not expert on 64 :-/
[05:39] <xailan> Alright, well I am going to go and try something then. Thank you all for your help.
[05:39] <ryanc> Anyone have any experience with Ubuntu Server install and Fasttrak100 "lite"?
[05:39] <erin> IcemanV9: It's a brand new Presario laptop. I actually had the same thing happen on an Acer.
[05:40] <boselecta> any idea why Firefox+MediaPlayerConnectivity plugin+Mplayer will work to show a stream in Mplayer, but Firefox+Mplayer plugin doesn't work too well?
[05:40] <IcemanV9> erin: ? ok.. which version of ubuntu did you installed?
[05:40] <boselecta> if mplayer can play the stream, then shouldn't the plugin as well?
[05:40] <erin> IcemanV9: Ubuntu 7.04
[05:40] <heartsblood> If i'm using the desktop version of feisty and I want to install a internet service from apt, is it possible to have that package configured for inetd?  It seems every service I want to install is being setup as a standalone
[05:41] <TriGz_> heartsblood: how can i install gtk+ via apt? i tried finding it within synaptic but it wasnt there ;o
[05:41] <heartsblood> or is that something i'm going to have to configure by hand myself?
[05:41] <ki4cgp> Snuxoll, no package named ubuntu-server.  I did apt-cache search and found some hits, but nothing that screams out ubuntu-server
[05:41] <heartsblood> TriGz_: could you be a little bit more specific?  do you know the exact name of the package you need?
[05:41] <erin> IcemanV9: It totally took over the screen until I added "vga=792" to the boot options on the advice of a blog.
[05:42] <IcemanV9> erin: feisty .. is there anything in log files that might give you a hint? dmesg, messages, Xorg.0.log?
[05:42] <TriGz_> heartsblood: GTK+ 2.40 or higher.
[05:42] <TriGz_> heartsblood: in syaptic there was a package (GTK 2) but that's not what i need apparently.
[05:42] <projecttt> can anyone assite with my data recovery quesiton?
[05:42] <projecttt> *assist
[05:42] <IcemanV9> erin: yea. that is good. it should help, but you said it does not completely resolved.
[05:42] <Guest39> Can someone whois me and paste it?
[05:43] <heartsblood> TriGz_: my guess is you need the dev files, 1 sec
[05:43] <IcemanV9> Guest39: you can do it on yourself :-)
[05:43] <fevel> I can only share through nfs, can someone help me share through smb?
[05:43] <erin> IcemanV9: How do I check those log files?
[05:43] <Guest39> can't remember the command, it's been so long since I used IRC :-/
[05:44] <IcemanV9> erin: /var/log
[05:44] <rpj8> Hey guys, let's say I wanted to use Thunar rather than Nautilus as my default file manager/Desktop manager.... what config file would I have to edit?
[05:44] <heartsblood> TriGz_: sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[05:44] <IcemanV9> Guest39: /whois Guest39
[05:45] <TriGz_> heartsblood: is that GTK+ 2.40? beacuse i already have GTK2 installed, but that's not what ophcrack wants
[05:45] <Guest39>  /whois Guest39 yields nothing to me, it may be my client causing it
[05:45] <trepid666> hiya everyone
[05:45] <ryanc> hi trepid666
[05:46] <heartsblood> 1 sec
[05:46] <trepid666> hows it goin in here?
[05:46] <ryanc> Wish I could get my server install to work with my FastTrak100 raid :/
[05:46] <IcemanV9> Guest39: it worked on myself; which client do u use?
[05:46] <Jupp> fevel, have you turned on the samba service?
[05:47] <Guest39> PJIRC, java applet on a webpage
[05:47] <Guest39> that's why I wanted to know the whois -- whether it is my server IP or my computer's ip
[05:47] <erin> IcemanV9: Here's what's in Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/m7ed9e072
[05:47] <erin> does that help?
[05:48] <trepid666> hmm... never done a server install before.
[05:48] <Sweetandy> Hello, everyone - I want to resize my main partition and leave 100MB of free space to be formatted for FreeDOS.
[05:48] <sphinx_> go for it
[05:48] <Sweetandy> I have gigs and gigs of free space
[05:48] <trepid666> do it up
[05:48] <Sweetandy> Is this possible in gparted?
[05:48] <sphinx_> yes
[05:48] <trepid666> yes
[05:48] <IcemanV9> Guest39: check your PM; here's your answer
[05:48] <sphinx_> backup your data first
[05:48] <Sweetandy> There really isn't any data worth backing up
[05:48] <trepid666> perfect
[05:49] <sphinx_> your call
[05:49] <fevel> Jupp, got it thanks
[05:49] <clarkey> clarkey
[05:49] <heartsblood> TriGz_: I can't confirm what version of gtk it is other than '2.0'.
[05:49] <Jupp> fevel, did you get the nfs working?
[05:49] <ki4cgp> Hi, I installed LAMP, and having problems with .php* files wanting to download instead of being processed.  myphpadmin works, but my other php app tries to download each time.  Anyone have any suggestions?
[05:49] <fevel> Jupp, I didnt, set it up through samba
[05:49] <trepid666> any1 know any good channels to chat on?
[05:50] <jet65> Can anyone help me getting ndiswrapper to install drivers?
[05:50] <Jupp> cool, samba is very easy
[05:50] <trepid666> i hate ndiswrapper lol
[05:50] <jet65> I'm beginning to also
[05:50] <TriGz_> heartsblood: i have GTK2 installed according to synaptic i need GTK + (plus) to install ophcrack. I've found it and downloaded GTK+ 2.10 but cant install it
[05:50] <kcs80> erin: this xorg.log seems pretty normal to me. are you using nvidia proprietary drivers? you should
[05:50] <IcemanV9> erin:  a bit ... try to turn off aiglx .. and i am not familiar with nvidia like i am with ati
[05:50] <jet65> But it's the only way I can get my wireless adapter to work that I know of
[05:51] <ISS_Student> Anybody else running the 7.10 Release Candidate and not having the booting splash screen?
[05:51] <trepid666> try wifi radar
[05:51] <IcemanV9> erin: look for (EE) lines; that is usually a hint :-)
[05:51] <trepid666> and ipconfig or iwconfig
[05:51] <erin> kcs80: no, I'm using the nv
[05:51] <kcs80> jet65: ndisgtk is pretty good
[05:51] <heartsblood> TriGz_: well if you downloaded it there should be a README and INSTALL file that should explain the install procedure.
[05:51] <mzuverink> ISS_Student, try #ubuntu+1, not this channel
[05:52] <erin> IcemanV9: In what file should I look for the EE line? The one I just posted?
[05:52] <TriGz_> heartsblood:  there is one. its just i run into several problems already, and it keeps firing more at me.
[05:52] <atosecond> how do you opt out of installing a boot loader?
[05:52] <ISS_Student> My wireless is finally working after using the restricted drivers
[05:52] <IcemanV9> erin: as i understand from others and forums, nvidia is usually a good driver compared to nv
[05:52] <yigal> atosecond: you don't
[05:52] <jet65> I don't have any restricted drivers besides an Nvidia graphics driver
[05:52] <atosecond> why not?
[05:52] <NemesisD> eth0 just crapped out on me and i got link is not ready in syslog, where should i begin? also, nothing in dmesg seems odd
[05:52] <IcemanV9> erin: yeah, the one you posted.
[05:52] <aolaus> hey trepid
[05:52] <aolaus> can you help me with my wireless problem?
[05:52] <jet65> I just am having a hard time getting anything right through the terminal. I specify what driectory to load but it tells me it doesn't exist.
[05:53] <trepid666> hey aolaus
[05:53] <yigal> jet65: did you use autocomplete?
[05:53] <heartsblood> TriGz_: well when you try to make install the app yourself, those installs are normally not all that polite to a previously installed version.  It's possible that the GTK+ you have on your system now is screwing with the one you got from the interweb.
[05:53] <aolaus> intel 3945 abg wireless.. trying to authenticate with a 2wire modem
[05:53] <aolaus> running feisty on a t60s
[05:53] <yigal> jet65: <tab> <tab> ?
[05:53] <aolaus> t60*
[05:53] <erin> IcemanV9: There are no EE entries. I'll try the restricted driver, then. brb
[05:53] <jet65> never tried autocomplete
[05:54] <TriGz_> heartsblood: i obviously dont have GTK+ (notice the +) installed, as within synaptic it only shows GTK2
[05:54] <atosecond> I plan on formatting the drive into xfs, and I know grub has problems with booting it, i'd rather not boot lilo, and I figure I can just use the xp boot manager
[05:54] <yigal> jet65: you are using BASH?
[05:54] <jet65> can you explain that to me? I'm new to Linux and using terminal
[05:54] <TriGz_> heartsblood: No package 'glib-2.0' found
[05:54] <TriGz_> No package 'atk' found
[05:54] <TriGz_> No package 'pango' found
[05:54] <TriGz_> No package 'cairo' found
[05:54] <TriGz_>  that's the latest error. and i cant find most of the packages.
[05:54] <atosecond> so is there a way to not install a boot loader
[05:54] <jet65> Don't know what BASH is, sorry, can you elaborate?
[05:55] <kcs80> atosecond: i don't think so, you will have to remove it. you can opt not to add it to mbr, but that is it afaik
[05:55] <trepid666> bash is hardcore lol
[05:55] <IcemanV9> aolaus: try to connect without security first, then set up wep -> wpa -> wpa2
[05:55] <harry> So how would I change the defauld background I get from xinit? the default makes my head explode
[05:55] <jet65> I'm researcinh it right now. Is it an alternative to the Terminal?
[05:55] <heartsblood> TriGz_: do me a favor and type this...
[05:55] <yigal> jet65: lets say you want to go to "/home/user/music/music_I_love" then you would have something like /h<tab><tab> should give you home then us<tab><tab> should give you /home/user/ continue using the double tab until you have the path you want.
[05:55] <harry> jet65: it is the terminal
[05:55] <atosecond> how do you opt not to install it to mbr
[05:55] <jet65> Well i do use the terminal
[05:56] <yigal> jet65: yes then you are using BASH
[05:56] <harry> jet65: the default program the terminal uses is bash
[05:56] <Pseudo> Anyone want to help me install a pidgin plugin I have on my desktop?
[05:56] <yigal> jet65: it is born again shell
[05:56] <harry> there's also sh, csh, zsh, etc etc
[05:56] <hhp2k> yigal: That's what it means? Wow, I never knew that
[05:56] <yigal> jet65: but its what 99% of all Ubuntu uses as a shell so don't worry
[05:57] <kcs80> atosecond: iirc, you click on "advanced" on the last screen of ubuntu's setup, there is a "hidden" option there (next to "participate in popularity contest". that is, in kubuntu, but ubuntu should be the same
[05:57] <clusty> trying to pass some kernel options at boot
[05:57] <yigal> hhp2k: cool
[05:57] <clusty> i have this : /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=7c2d1c71-7379-4f29-8a83-6f0951838246 ro quiet splash usbcore.autosuspend=1
[05:57] <clusty> the usbcore stuff does not work
[05:57] <TriGz_> heartsblood: type what? ;o
[05:57] <heartsblood> trying to find all the packages.
[05:57] <jet65> Alright, well I'm figuring it out pretty well. I just couldn't get the right drivers installed. I need to install a .inf file and a .sys file to get the adapter to work correctly, but I can't get a wireless internet conenction started up.
[05:58] <atosecond> Hrm i just unchecked install boot loader
[05:58] <yigal> jet65: are you using a wifi card that NetworkManager supports?
[05:58] <Sweetandy> There are little padlocks next to each partition in gparted, and I cannot resize any of them.
[05:58] <kcs80> atosecond: oh, nice
[05:59] <IcemanV9> jet65: echo $SHELL - it'll tells you what shell you are using :)
[05:59] <Sweetandy> How can this be worked around?
[05:59] <atosecond> Anyways does anyone know how to get CDT as your time
[05:59] <jet65> I'm not sure. It's a Belking f5d7050
[05:59] <atosecond> i can't find a US location
[05:59] <yigal> Sweetandy: you need to unmount the volumes you want to resize delete etc.
[05:59] <Sweetandy> Can I do this via a LiveCD then?
[05:59] <yigal> Sweetandy: sure a live CD is perfect for changing the partition table
[06:00] <Sweetandy> Thanks so much yigal!!
[06:00] <Sweetandy> bbl
[06:00] <jet65> IcemanV9: I'm on windows ME right now, I double boot since I can't get internet on Xubuntu, but I'm sure that since I just installed xubuntu that it is BASH
[06:00] <dxdt> lulz why is everyone an operator in #bash right now?
[06:00] <fevel> damn...samba says I dont have permission to copy a file to my comp. But I do
[06:00] <atosecond> what needs to be passed to ubuntu as far as bootloader goes
[06:00] <fevel> anyone have simillar issues?
[06:00] <hhp2k> dxdt: That is odd.. hm
[06:00] <yigal> jet65: I'm not sure I got it that card to work before, however if it uses rt73 NetworkManager doesn't support it and you will have to fill in /etc/network/interfaces manually
[06:01] <IcemanV9> jet65: ah. at least, you know how to find out
[06:01] <heartsblood> TriGz_:  sudo apt-get install libcairo2-dev libglib2.0-dev libgtk2.0-dev libatk1.0-dev libpango1.0-dev
[06:01] <Jupp>  fevel, try chmod 777 on the shared directory
[06:01] <TriGz_> heartsblood: ok ;o
[06:01] <Jupp> and then try writing to it again
[06:02] <jet65> So do you know how I can get my wireless adapter to work? I'm looking at wifi radar right now, since I couldn't get ndiswrapper to work.
[06:02] <Jaearess> Does anyone know what group you have to be part of to access joysticks? I accidently removed myself from all groups and apparently didn't add the one for joysticks back.
[06:03] <fevel> Jupp, nope
[06:03] <fevel> :/
[06:03] <yigal> jet65: wifi radar won't help until you get a driver working.
[06:03] <quik_> hey folks
[06:03] <jet65> yigal: that's what i thought. any ideas on how to get the driver to work
[06:03] <heartsblood> "The following packages where automatically installed and are no longer required: openbsd-inetd"  How is that possible?
[06:04] <quik_> I've just installed 7.04, openssh-server. its very slow to connect -  likley to be a bad dns server on the host machine?
[06:04] <quik_> bad dns server entry*
[06:04] <yigal> jet65: look at the community wiki pages on wifi, I believe your card is covered there
[06:04] <Missy> hey guys
[06:04] <heartsblood> hello
[06:04] <pope> what's the room for gutsy help?
[06:04] <Jupp> fevel, go to sytem->administration->shared folders and then go the the properties of the shared folder, make sure the "read only" flag is not set
[06:04] <heartsblood> pope: ubuntu+
[06:04] <heartsblood> pope: ubuntu+1
[06:04] <fevel> it isnt
[06:04] <pope> thnx ^_^
[06:04] <pivcon> ##pentaho
[06:05] <fevel> Jupp, first thing i checked :/
[06:05] <tw2113> i needz the help!
[06:05] <FireHazard17> lol
[06:05] <fevel> I cant even open a file
[06:05] <FireHazard17> subtle
[06:05] <Missy> why'
[06:05] <FireHazard17> fevel: winz
[06:05] <Jupp> you mean not even read access?
[06:05] <WorkingOnWise> I have spent the day beating my head against a wall, and I am sooooooo over it! I have decided that I will not be able to actually _Use_ windows in a virtual environment, and I will Not run Windows XP any more! So, I must find a replacement for Outlook, Onenote, and Small Business Contact Manager (SBCM). Any Ideas? Ideally, something that integrates customers and invoices with an accounting program. I know about Evolution,

[06:06] <vniet1> I have ubuntu gubsy an when I need use the tty1, don't work
[06:06] <vniet1> ani idea?
[06:07] <jet65> yigal: not sure
[06:07] <tw2113> no one knows how to set up dual monitors in ubuntu?
[06:07] <IcemanV9> vniet1: #ubuntu+1 would help ya
[06:07] <Jupp> fevel, you can see the files listed in the folder, right?
[06:07] <Missy> noones talkin to me
[06:07] <WorkingOnWise> dwxreaper: for any of it? :-(
[06:07] <heartsblood> trogz_: translation: your trying to compile something that needed a lot of dev libs that you didn't have.
[06:07] <xp_prg2> what is the package to get mpeg2enc?
[06:07] <fevel> Jupp, yes
[06:07] <atosecond> tw2113 you have to modify your xorg conf
[06:07] <atosecond> i think
[06:07] <heartsblood> TriGz_: read what I said to your brother.
[06:07] <tw2113> there is no GUI for it?
[06:08] <atosecond> there might be
[06:08] <fevel> Jupp, but cant open, it says i dont have permission
[06:08] <dwxreaper> working: definitly not onenote
[06:08] <TriGz_> heartsblood: i have a brother?
[06:08] <tw2113> i needz ze gui
[06:08] <jet65> yigal: i think it give 050d:7050, if that's even the correct thing you're asking for
[06:08] <heartsblood> TriGz_: apprently, a guy named trogz_
[06:08] <TriGz_> heartsblood: oh! you mean trogz! i forgot about him, mum got rid of him the day he was born :P
[06:08] <fevel> maybe a firewall issue? but I never set a firewall
[06:08] <heartsblood> ;)
[06:08] <atosecond> i think envy
[06:08] <dwxreaper> why not use a vm, and use both
[06:08] <TriGz_> heartsblood: yea, that sounds about right
[06:08] <atosecond> lets you do it
[06:08] <heartsblood> TriGz_: apt-cache search libtiff
[06:08] <dwxreaper> windows, then linux in a vm, or vise-versa
[06:09] <TriGz_> heartsblood:  but i cant log back into windows, as i forgot passwords, and i need to install ophcrack so i can play WoW again! :(
[06:09] <Jupp> fevel, try a chmod 777 on the files you're trying yo read
[06:09] <atosecond> @tw2113 go install Envy
[06:09] <WorkingOnWise> dwxreaper: because virtualbox and qemu SucK!
[06:09] <Telroth> TriGz_,
[06:09] <kcs80> WorkingOnWise: for outlook you have evolution, kontact and sunbird, but the integration, I can't see none
[06:09] <Telroth> get the ophcrack live-cd
[06:09] <heartsblood> TriGz_: just means you have to install the libs you need
[06:09] <dwxreaper> working: vmware server is free
[06:09] <Telroth> there's no installation
[06:09] <Telroth> just download, burn, and boot
[06:09] <tw2113> not founded
[06:09] <TriGz_> heartsblood: yea, i've realised that now :P
[06:09] <TriGz_> Telroth: i cba with a 500mb file ;P
[06:10] <atosecond> it isn't in the basic repos
[06:10] <mohkohn> Is there anything like apt-spy in ubuntu so I can find my fastest mirror? 15 hours from kh is a bit slow.
[06:10] <fevel> Jupp, dont thinl thats the case, they were created as a normall user
[06:10] <yigal> jet65: you have the 4000 then use the wiki:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Belkin_F5D7050_ver_4000_%28ZyDas_zd1211b_driver%29?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDevice%29
[06:10] <atosecond> http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[06:10] <Ashfire908> what is the difference between ps -a and ps -A
[06:10] <atosecond> you can get it from there
[06:10] <WorkingOnWise> dwxreaper: is vmware server any better that vb or qemu?
[06:10] <Jupp> fevel, if you can connect (i.e. see the files on the shared folder) samba is talking, so it can't be a firewall issue, I thing...
[06:10] <atosecond> it works on both ati and nvidia
[06:10] <Ashfire908> i mean, what does -a do?
[06:10] <Telroth> TriGz_, what? "cba" ?
[06:10] <TriGz_> Telroth: can't be arsed. :P
[06:10] <Telroth> Ashfire908, "man ps"
[06:10] <fevel> ah!
[06:10] <fevel> ill try this tomorrow
[06:11] <mohkohn> man cba
[06:11] <fevel> cya guys
[06:11] <Ashfire908> Telroth, oh thanks a lot.
[06:11] <TriGz_> Telroth: i have alot of problems with my internet, disconnecting ect. it would take be about 15 days to eventually get the file as it'd stop atleast 10 times half way through
[06:11] <Telroth> TriGz_, oh. well you'll spend just as long generating the tables :P
[06:11] <Jupp> fevel, yes but the user on the client is not the same user on the host, or is it?
[06:11] <fevel> thanks for the help Jupp
[06:11] <heartsblood> TriGz_: apt-get install libtiff4-dev
[06:11] <TriGz_> heartsblood: wayyy ahead of you, thanks though :)_
[06:11] <fevel> Jupp, it is
[06:11] <fevel> its ok
[06:11] <fevel> ill try tomorrow
[06:11] <TriGz_> Telroth: are you being serious? :(
[06:11] <jet65> yigal: can you explain to me what ZyDas zd1211b chipset Drivers are?
[06:11] <pope> having trouble with compiz in Gnome, lost all borders, and the desktop is malfunctioning after upgrade. Can anyone help me fix, please?
[06:11] <Telroth> 500mb of the 700mb image are the rainbow tables
[06:11] <heartsblood> well i'm doing 5 things at once
[06:12] <Telroth> the livecd part has been completely stripped down
[06:12] <TriGz_> Telroth: image is 455.2mb :P
[06:12] <Telroth> still
[06:12] <Telroth> most of that is tables
[06:12] <TriGz_> :(!
[06:12] <TriGz_> How shit
[06:12] <TriGz_> i need my dose of WoW before i kill myself!
[06:12] <yigal> jet65: I wouln't worry about that its just the name of your wifi.  If you want to know how that chipset works then you would ask that question otherwise just follow the tutorial and you will have wifi in no time.
[06:12] <MattG> wine it, trigz_
[06:12] <pvl1> does anyone know how to use Creox?
[06:13] <Telroth> the tables are what make ophcrack so fast because they are pre-built
[06:13] <dav-e> Which CD allows you to choose which packages to install, desktop or alternate?
[06:13] <TriGz_> MattG: It gives shit performance, i tried it but just couldnt handle it
[06:13] <WorkingOnWise> how well does koffice handle MS file formats...not the 2007 variety, but the 2003 and down?
[06:13] <tw2113> boy, fedora makes it so easy to attempt dual monitor
[06:13] <yigal> WorkingOnWise: about as well as OOo does :)
[06:13] <MattG> did you check your video drivers, trigz_?  got the right ones on there?
[06:14] <jet65> when I did that (i already had the guide saved to hard drive), I got to step two and it wouldn't install updates. Should I worry about that? I just installed the OS
[06:14] <TriGz_>  using Envy was told they were the best ones to use.
[06:14] <MattG> so i hear, trigz_
[06:14] <WorkingOnWise> yigal: really? they have made major advances in the last 18 months then!
[06:14] <TriGz_> MattG: well they're what i've got mate :P
[06:14] <yigal> WorkingOnWise: yes
[06:15] <ruz322> tw2113: too bad fedora sucks in all other aspects though
[06:15] <jeth_meh> hi, can i ask help about ubuntu here?
[06:15] <yigal> jet65: yes your repos are acting up, you need to be totally updated - at least you should be
[06:15] <MattG> trigz_: only other explanation...THE SERVER'S CRASHING!  CALL 911!
[06:15] <TriGz_> jeth_meh:  yes.
[06:15] <DanielHolth> Hi, I am using the Gnome save dialog presented to me in Ubuntu, and I wonder how I can visit hidden directories.
[06:15] <WorkingOnWise> yigal: the poor interop with MS file formats is what kept me off koffice in the past....
[06:15] <TriGz_> MattG: OMFG! IS IT?!
[06:15] <dav-e> Which CD allows you to choose which packages to install, desktop or alternate?
[06:15] <FireHazard17> tw2113: try sudo rm -rf /
[06:15] <TriGz_> MattG: BRB CALLING THE CAREPOLICE!
[06:15] <FireHazard17> dav-e: alternate
[06:15] <yigal> jet65: try until it works -- I'm serious
[06:15] <TriGz_> MattG: it's not funny! i need my fix :(
[06:15] <DanielHolth> I can type them in the location bar but I cannot seem to figure out how to get the contents of a directory typed into the location bar to appear in the list box below.
[06:16] <MattG> trigz_: get the doc!  the floppy's floppin around and the hard drive is smokin'!
[06:16] <Ashfire908> what is /usr/local for?
[06:16] <Telroth> tw2113, in ubuntu we don't attempt dual-monitor, we just do it
[06:16] <tw2113> of course you do
[06:16] <jeth_meh> TriGz_ can i make ubuntu act as router for an internet cafe?
[06:16] <Manderson> Wow...cheesy
[06:16] <jet65> yigal: i will, does it make a difference whether i have xubuntu or ubuntu?
 Right-click on the file list window and check "show hidden files".
[06:16] <atosecond> what about triples?
[06:16] <tw2113> because it's just the super-est
[06:16] <FireHazard17> tw2113: don't attempt it just sudo rm -rf /
[06:16] <yigal> WorkingOnWise: I am not a KDE user but they have done gone through major improements, have you asked the kubuntu people they probably know more
[06:16] <yigal> jet65: no
[06:16] <TriGz_> jeth_meh: Do you mean a server?
[06:16] <tw2113> should i listen to FireHazard17?
[06:16] <sense> /usr/local is for installing packages by user and not seen by package manager
[06:16] <DanielHolth> okay, but what if I want to type a directory and then go to it in the bottom part, rather than searching for and clicking on all the components?
[06:16] <FireHazard17> twyes
[06:16] <MattG> trigz_: i haven't played in 3 months...not that addicting for me.  got to lvl 70...big whoop
[06:16] <ubrian> lol fire
[06:16] <jet65> ok, well I'll keep trying it out.
[06:16] <FireHazard17> yes then install fedora
[06:17] <IcemanV9> jeth_meh: there are a few threads on that subject in ubuntuforums.org
[06:17] <TriGz_> MattG: but my druid is level 50 :(
[06:17] <tw2113> ooh
[06:17] <Manderson> yeah, tw2113...I think rm -rf / will fix all the problems you've mentioned
[06:17] <jeth_meh> TriGz_ yes
[06:17] <TriGz_> MattG: i havn't even tried mangle yet!
[06:17] <WorkingOnWise> yigal: thanks. I'll go do that then. have a goor day/night
[06:17] <tw2113> i'm not finding envy with apt-get
[06:17] <FireHazard17> tw2113: totally
[06:17] <yigal> jet65: if trying to update your repos fails after 5-10 minutes tell me what is happening
[06:17] <jet65> And do i need to download the tar files for ZyDas zd1211b chipset Drivers onto my hard drive (or a flash drive) to install?
[06:17] <MattG> trigz_: guess you will have to miss out on the other 20 levels...sorry dude
[06:17] <Ashfire908> sense, so make install always puts stuff in /usr/local
[06:17] <yigal> WorkingOnWise: you too :)
[06:17] <Manderson> tw2113-  make sure you're root though
[06:17] <FireHazard17> tw2113: do you need the command again ?
[06:17] <TriGz_> jeth_meh:  ofcourse it's possible, you could make anything work as a server
[06:17] <tw2113> nah
[06:17] <jet65> yigal: sorry to sound dumb, but what are repos?
[06:17] <tw2113> i mezmorized it
[06:17] <TriGz_> MattG: but ive already farmed the gold for epic flying mount on my warlock :(
[06:17] <tw2113> i have the memory of an elephant! or a goldfish
[06:17] <sense> yes, you have to make sure that make install installs stuff in /usr/local
[06:18] <yigal> jet65: repos == repositories == all of the Ubuntu pacakges :)
[06:18] <MattG> trigz_: partition your drive so you have 2 of em, and install winblowz on the 2nd one with WoW
 Ah. I see what you mean.  I don't know if that possible yet.  If anyone knows, I would like to know too.
[06:18] <sense> by configuring it as ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
[06:18] <TriGz_> Winblows is on my 2nd HD
[06:18] <TriGz_> Ubuntu on my 1st.
[06:18] <MattG> yeah
[06:18] <Ashfire908> sense, ok thanks (though could you put my nick at the start of the line so i know it's to me?)
[06:18] <jeth_meh> TriGz_ can you pls give me some idea where to start and how to do it?
[06:18] <yigal> jet65: what you have in /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:18] <DanielHolth> cmassey why has the GTK file selector continued to suck so badly for so long, it is beyond me.
[06:18] <sense> Ashfire908 :)OK
[06:19] <localgod13> need help gettin tv out yo work with a nvidia g force  mx400
[06:19] <TriGz_> jeth_meh: I can't I'm afraid, i don't have much experiance in servers. I'm sure someone else could though. :)
[06:19] <heartsblood> TriGz_: Your lucky, I was forced to start on redhat 4.1 and was terrified for the rest of my life.
 Yeah, tell me about it.
[06:19] <MattG> yeah, trigz_, if u didnt see it
[06:19] <TriGz_> heartsblood: haha!
[06:19] <mohkohn> how can you find out what is the fastest apt mirror?
[06:19] <yigal> heartsblood: starting on Sarge wasn't easy :)
[06:19] <jeth_meh> :(
[06:19] <ki4cgp> I installed LAMP, and having problems with .php* files wanting to download instead of being processed.  myphpadmin works, but my other php app tries to download each time.  Anyone have any suggestions?
[06:19] <jet65> yigal: ok well i'll give it a try, and I'll tell you what it says if it messes up. I'll try to log back in tonight, but I have to log off to get into xubuntu, so thanks for the help.
[06:19] <heartsblood> yigal: psh yea wtf ever.  debian was a godsend from redhat ><
[06:20] <TriGz_> I started on mepis or w/e that crappy OS was called ;D
[06:20] <yigal> heartsblood: :)
[06:20] <quik_> I'm attempting to mount a ufs partition
[06:20] <heartsblood> rpm -ivh <random_package_that_wont_install>
[06:20] <quik_> with little luck
[06:20] <TriGz_> heartsblood: Ha! :)
[06:20] <quik_> is there something special to do in ubuntu for ufs
[06:20] <Scunizi> ki4cgp, try #ubuntu-server
[06:20] <yigal> heartsblood: apt has always been a keeper
[06:20] <heartsblood> aye
[06:20] <MattG> somebody should just come out with a custom linux install with WoW already on it to satisfy the addicts! :)
[06:21] <tw2113> addiction is bad
[06:21] <MattG> yup
[06:21] <ki4cgp> Scunizi, ok.  I didn't install server edition.  But maybe they can help anyhow
[06:21] <DanielHolth> cmassey: Here we go, use the KDE file selector with GTK apps: http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=36077
[06:21] <pvl1> Jack wont work
[06:21] <TriGz_> MattG: REALLY?!?
[06:21] <vampyre_eyes> unless the adiction id for coffee :-)
[06:21] <heartsblood> I've still got the 12lbs "Linux Unleased" that came with it.
[06:21] <localgod13> ok
[06:21] <MattG> trigz_: really what?
[06:21] <TriGz_> MattG:  Oh, mis-read. i thought you said someone did :(
[06:21] <MattG> HAH!
[06:21] <Scunizi> ki4cgp, worth a shot
[06:21] <TriGz_> fu!
[06:21] <Manderson> I love this DISTRO!! What a fantastically fantastic, super great DISTRO!
[06:21] <ki4cgp> Scunizi, yep, thanks
[06:21] <MattG> easy, slugger!  ROFL
[06:21] <TriGz_> truedat Manderson
[06:22] <Scunizi> ki4cgp, np
[06:22] <Manderson> TRU---DAT
[06:22] <TriGz_> :D
[06:22] <localgod13> xserver just died i know i need to modify xorg.conf to het it working i just dont know how to get at it
[06:22] <MattG> heck yeah manderson
[06:22] <TriGz_> Slackware is coo' though
[06:22] <mohkohn> Manderson, it is the easiest. Most things just work. And if they don't there are good docs on the wiki.
[06:22] <localgod13> lil help
 Yeah, I may just do that.  I've never been a KDE fan, for my own political reasons, but I do like there dialogs.
[06:22] <vampyre_eyes> I love Ubuntu, but its still needs some work to make it "the best" (TM)
[06:22] <tw2113> Shuttlworth ROCKS THE HIZZOUSE!
[06:22] <MattG> just ask, localgod13
[06:22] <sense> Does, anybody know how to recompile stuff as in gentoo in ubuntu, so that ubuntu runs faster?
[06:22] <Zambezi> In Feisty, what is the name of a syslog server (sending logs to from pfsense).
[06:22] <Manderson> You know what's better than actually using this distro??? TALKING about it
[06:23] <localgod13> xserver just died i know i need to modify xorg.conf to het it working i just dont know how to get at it
[06:23] <vampyre_eyes> it is the only distro that my mum can use
[06:23] <FireHazard17> Manderson: TOTALLY!
[06:23] <Manderson> tw2113-   you're right on with that one!
[06:23] <MattG> i think manderson's having some problems with the ubuntu juices!
[06:23] <mohkohn> Plus irc is polite unlike on a related irc channel.
[06:23] <DanielHolth> cmassey yeah, they are too GPL'd with their QT, which is why all the commercial projects decide to use GTK and write Gnome applications.
[06:23] <FireHazard17> what is an ubuntu?
[06:23] <mariano> wenas
[06:23] <Manderson> MattG-  if you call LOVE "problems" then yeah! I am full of PROBLEMS!!!

[06:26] <mariano> Hellow my name is Mariano and i am of Argentine
[06:26] <Manderson> tw2113-  I think so.
[06:26] <yigal> black_13: yes, but you may not like the results
[06:26] <tw2113> i swear i saw some file about him when i installed it
[06:26] <Scunizi> black_
[06:26] <TriGz_> MattG: maybe 3-4 points of a frame per second lool
[06:26] <MattG> oh yeah, duh.  sry trigz_
[06:27] <Manderson> tw2113-  him or someone else
[06:27] <TriGz_> hm, this "make" is taking FOREVAR
[06:27] <TriGz_> seems like its looping >.<
[06:27] <yigal> TriGz_: wat u building?
[06:27] <FireHazard17> Manderson: no i am pretty sure it was ghandi
[06:27] <EdibleEgg> hey, can anyone help me? i have ubuntu and windows xp installed on my harddrive, but i can't get grub to boot into xp anymore
[06:27] <mohkohn> FireHazard17, good explanation of the different OS's http://developers.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=138807&cid=11616999
[06:27] <TriGz_> yigal: GTK+ 2.10.14 (24mb compressed, 98mb uncompressed apparently lol)
[06:28] <TriGz_> yigal:  But yea, it really does seem like its looping
[06:28] <FireHazard17> mohkohn: can i use links2 to view it?
[06:28] <TriGz_> And thanks to someone's advice before. i nearly have the oph live CD anyway :D
[06:28] <tw2113> so for distros, we have a lizard, a couple of hats, an african slang, a hurricane, a high speed internet, and countless others?
[06:28] <MattG> trigz_: my bro plays wow on it, ill ask him some questions
[06:28] <ianweller> hi, trying to install ubuntu 7.04 on an hp pavilion 540n, relatively used to linux, not working, any help plz?
[06:28] <mohkohn> FireHazard17, it is slashdot so text based so I would say yes
[06:28] <TriGz_> MattG:  tell your bro to shove it!
[06:29] <TriGz_> MattG: DAMMIT GEIF WOW!
[06:29] <quik_> how can I partition a drive in its entirety to ext3?
[06:29] <FireHazard17> mohkohn: i'll go with w3m
[06:29] <TriGz_> MattG: ILL KILL FOR 5 MINUTES OF MANGLE!
[06:29] <TriGz_> MattG: I'm not addicted btw
[06:29] <Manderson> MANGLE???
[06:29] <TriGz_> MattG: The doctor said I'm just over reacting
[06:29] <Manderson> WTF IS THAT?
[06:29] <ianweller> hi
[06:29] <princess^> ;/
[06:29] <TriGz_> Manderson: it's a skill you can get for a Druid on World of Warcraft @ level 50 :D
[06:29] <MattG> well...i think ur both, trigz_
[06:29] <mohkohn> I am still a bit stuck trying to find my fastest mirror. I am in Cambodia and the mirror here is slow.
[06:29] <Manderson> Holy SHEEEAT...you play WOW too?
[06:30] <TriGz_> MattG: ILL KILL YOU! IM NOT ADDICTED
[06:30] <princess^> o_O
[06:30] <Manderson> Did you get it installed in Ubutnu?
[06:30] <TriGz_> MattG: I JUST NEED WOW!
[06:30] <ki4cgp> I play wow
[06:30] <MattG> trigz_: install winblows and good luck
[06:30] <atosecond> hey how you add ubuntu to boot.ini
[06:30] <ki4cgp> had it running in linux
[06:30] <TriGz_> MattG: I don't have an addictive personality! /me swigs beer and takes a puff of a cigarette
[06:30] <TriGz_> MattG:  i have winblows installed
[06:30] <mohkohn> We don't have anything similar to apt-spy in debian to find the fastest mirror?
[06:30] <em_> hi everybody, just installed Gutsy ,was able to get my canon mp150 to work through the usb , could not do that with feisty, but how can install the canon as a  network printer through my print server
[06:30] <Scunizi> atosecond, boot ini?
[06:30] <MattG> well use it with wow, trigz_
[06:30] <TriGz_> MattG:  im going through all these install problems in the hope i can re-gain my password, which i forgot because i suck
[06:30] <IcemanV9> MattG: do u play wow in wine? or on winblowz?
[06:30] <tw2113> so i heard windows 98 was better than ubuntu in some ways
[06:30] <TriGz_> IcemanV9:  MattG doesnt, i do.
[06:31] <Manderson> I installed ubutnu about a month ago and haven't been able to run WoW since I did...
[06:31] <FireHazard17> tw2113: no os/2 is though
[06:31] <Scunizi> tw2113, you gotta be kidding?!
[06:31] <Manderson> Do I need to do something different/?
[06:31] <tw2113> DOS!
[06:31] <tw2113> whee!
[06:31] <TriGz_> Manderson: i may be able to help you. But i doubt the performance will be very good. it's not for me atleast, and i have 2x 8800GTX's
[06:31] <atosecond> boot.ini how would you?
[06:31] <MattG> i play wow in wine, trigz_ and icemanv9
[06:31] <FireHazard17> my itunes is gone since i wipe hard drive
[06:31] <ki4cgp> I played wow in wine, had to enable ati proprietary drivers
 Do you know which partition your WinXP is on? Or if more than one HDD, do you know which drive WinXP is installed on?
[06:31] <TriGz_> MattG:  but you suck! :P
[06:31] <atosecond> umm yes your itunes would be
[06:31] <localgod13> xwindows just died on boot i know i need to modify xorg.conf to het it working i just dont know how to get at it
[06:31] <MattG> nah, i just have a computer that can handle it, trigz_
[06:31] <Manderson> TriGz_-  I don't have that good of hardware...
[06:31] <tw2113> what? it's not possibly for 98 to be better in a small handful of ways?
[06:32] <FireHazard17> atosecond: 500 worh of song
[06:32] <tw2113> what about their wallpapers!
[06:32] <TriGz_> MattG: can i remote assistance your PC to play wow for 5 mins? :(
[06:32] <EdibleEgg> cmassey: i have one harddrive, but i can't seem to figure out what partition xp is supposed to be on
[06:32] <MattG> heck no, trigz_
[06:32] <tw2113> and hey, it's not Millenium Edition
[06:32] <Manderson> I was barely able to run it on my PII under windows ME
[06:32] <ianweller> booting 7.04 on hp pavilion 540n, http://rafb.net/p/wi0BE730.html pops up on the screen after about 5 minutes, help?
[06:32] <TriGz_> Manderson: It may be my drivers, because its definately not hardware.
[06:32] <TriGz_> MattG:  why?! :(
[06:32] <princess^> goodbye channel
[06:32] <em_> help with network printing in gutsy ubuntu
[06:32] <tw2113> bye princess toadstool
[06:32] <TriGz_> I'm convinced this "Make" is looping now :(
[06:32] <Scunizi> goodbye princess^
[06:32] <princess^> ;)
[06:32] <atosecond> just download off the torrent
[06:33] <MattG> trigz_: because you will take up TOO much bandwidth remoting in and you will take up too much bandwidth playing WoW...and I would have nothing to do
[06:33] <EdibleEgg> cmassey: fdisk -l gives no output
[06:33] <TriGz_> I've seen DHAVE_CONFIG_H come up about 25 times
[06:33] <IcemanV9> em_: #ubuntu+1 will help ya with gutsy issue
[06:33] <HLM> i know this is off topic but is anyone having problems connecting to Google
[06:33] <TriGz_> MattG: ill give you a cookie?
[06:33] <Scunizi> HLM, no
[06:33] <MattG> helznoze there, trigz_
Type 'df /' and tell me which device it spits out in the far-left side.
[06:33] <tw2113> can i get Photoshop CS3 in ubuntu?
[06:33] <FireHazard17> my ubuntu want cheezburger
[06:33] <HLM> must be the local server
[06:33] <TriGz_> MattG: 2 cookies?!
[06:33] <Manderson> TriGz_-  so, when I double click setup.exe, it doesn't work
[06:33] <FireHazard17> can it has cheezburger ?
[06:33] <EdibleEgg> cmassey: dev/sda5
[06:34] <TriGz_> Manderson: Do you have wine installed?
[06:34] <Scunizi> Manderson, duh?!
[06:34] <Manderson> what's that?
[06:34] <tw2113> do yu have cheese too Manderson
[06:34] <tw2113> ?
[06:34] <TriGz_> Manderson: Wine is a windows emulator.
[06:34] <FireHazard17> Manderson: goe=s good with cheeze
[06:34] <Manderson> huh?
[06:34] <MattG> trigz_: NO. that's the last time.  sorry if you have to go to the psych ward cause you are too overtaken by the game, but i wont let you because i'm too busy with my stuff here
[06:34] <FireHazard17> TriGz_: no it isn't
 Ok, now do a 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda' and see which partition is formatted as NTFS
[06:34] <TriGz_> Manderson: open terminal and type "sudo apt-get install wine" should help a bit :P
[06:34] <FireHazard17> TriGz_: it emulates nothing
[06:34] <TriGz_> FireHazard17: it isnt?
[06:34] <Manderson> No, I don't need an emulator...I have the full version here...I bought it.
[06:34] <TriGz_> FireHazard17: oh well, im thick
[06:34] <FireHazard17> TriGz_: it provide the windows api
[06:34] <em_> icemanv9 what is #ubuntu+1
[06:34] <sgtkwol> #ubuntu effects
[06:35] <TriGz_> Manderson: i mean, it means you can run windows based things.
[06:35] <FireHazard17> em_: gutsy talk
[06:35] <TriGz_> Manderson: just type what i said in terminal :P
[06:35] <IcemanV9> em_: channel for gutsy stuff
[06:35] <heartsblood> TriGz_: I recomend you pull the WoW IV out of your arm.  it's not healthy.
[06:35] <FireHazard17> TriGz_: but i no want windows
[06:35] <EdibleEgg> cmassey: the device is /dev/sda3, id is 7
[06:35] <lee_> ok done
[06:35] <heartsblood> TriGz_: I lost 2, technically 3 gf's because of that game
[06:35] <TriGz_> heartsblood: i know this! :(
[06:35] <tw2113> i'm not smart enough to play WoW
[06:35] <TriGz_> heartsblood: damnnn dude
[06:35] <TriGz_> heartsblood: my gf loves wow
[06:35] <TriGz_> heartsblood: we play together all the time
 Do you have an AIM screename?
[06:35] <GNine> am not smart enough to keep playing
[06:35] <FireHazard17> ok i poured wine on my comp now what ?
[06:36] <ianweller> can i get some help?
[06:36] <EdibleEgg> cmassey: yeah, DaDovenmuehle, let me get on meebo real quick
 So we can talk somewhere that isn't congested.
[06:36] <IcemanV9> !ask | ianweller
[06:36] <ubotu> ianweller: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:36] <TriGz_> FireHazard17: You just caused a fire hazard, now, you must touch any electrics you can find with wet hands! :)
[06:36] <Manderson> TriGz_-  tried it...
[06:36] <Manderson> this is what i got
 okay
[06:36] <Manderson> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[06:36] <EdibleEgg> cmassey: k im on
[06:36] <ianweller> i have been.
[06:36] <ianweller> >.<
 Let me log into Pidgin
[06:36] <heartsblood> TriGz_: that was the problem.  It's all fun and games if your gf is just as good as you are and your in an end game raiding guild.   but if she's not it's not pretty.
[06:36] <EdibleEgg> :)
[06:36] <TriGz_> Manderson: wha? did you type "sudo" before "apt-get install wine"
[06:36] <ianweller> oh, and guess what, i've been ignored :/
[06:36] <Manderson> TriGz_-  yeah...
[06:36] <Shrimpy_> can you use vnc to connect to a outside network?
[06:36] <Manderson> I'll try again
[06:36] <TriGz_> ianweller: just ask the question
[06:37] <tw2113> sudo.....?
[06:37] <FireHazard17> can my fluxbuntu has cheezburger ?
[06:37] <tw2113> youdo?
[06:37] <ianweller> TriGz_: dewd, i did. :\
[06:37] <TriGz_> Manderson: odd, if that fails, close the terminal and start again
[06:37] <FireHazard17> tw2113: no su is better
[06:37] <Manderson> alright...
[06:37] <tw2113> su -?
[06:37] <TriGz_> ianweller: i just saw "can i get some help" ask again, and im sure anyone that can help, wil.
[06:37] <ianweller> TriGz_: http://rafb.net/p/wi0BE730.html, that's what it says when i try to boot... on a hp pavilion 540n
[06:37] <tw2113> i don't think ubuntu has that
[06:37] <em_> where is #ubuntu+1
[06:37] <TriGz_> ianweller: i get a 404?
[06:37] <ianweller> ...
[06:37] <trogdor> em_: /join #ubuntu+1
[06:38] <FireHazard17> tw2113: of course it does what else would it have, crappy sudo ?
[06:38] <Manderson> uuugh...forget it. I am kinda getting sick of this anways...
[06:38] <TriGz_> Manderson: sick of what? :P
[06:38] <Manderson> I am going to go back to windows for a bit...so I can play W0W
[06:38] <ianweller> TriGz_: http://rafb.net/p/tm7XnE55.html, try that
[06:38] <trogdor> Manderson: might want to try wine out
[06:38] <tw2113> wine isn't good without cheese
[06:38] <FireHazard17> Manderson: do you need to unformat your hardrive ?
[06:38] <TriGz_> trogdor: already told him this.
[06:38] <TriGz_> Manderson: im gonna do the same when ophcrack is working
[06:39] <Manderson> FireHazard17-  yeah...can you help?
[06:39] <FireHazard17> 00:26 < FireHazard17> shipit sent me a nice cracker in the mail
[06:39] <TriGz_> ianweller: 404....
[06:39] <FireHazard17> oops
[06:39] <ianweller> wtf.
[06:39] <em_> for heaven sake how do i join #ubuntu+1
[06:39] <ianweller> i'll try another server.
[06:39] <GNine> wow was designed and written for windows.. so..
[06:39] <FireHazard17> Manderson: sudo rm -rf /
[06:39] <trogdor> TriGz_: oh okay, I get better fps on WoW using linux
[06:39] <tw2113> FEDORA RULES, UBUNTU'S FOR N00BS!
[06:39] <Manderson> FireHazard17-  k...trying now
[06:39] <FireHazard17> Manderson: that will fix
[06:39] <TriGz_> trogdor: really?
[06:39] <TriGz_> trogdor: i get ALOT worse fps on wow with linux.
[06:39] <kitche> em_: / join #ubuntu+1 no space between /join
[06:39] <bullgard4> What is meant by 'platform device'? Example 1: (Wikipedia) "Linux distributions including Debian GNU/Linux, MontaVista Linux, openSUSE, Yellow Dog Linux, Gentoo Linux and Crux PPC are also available for the Pegasos. Support for the Pegasos as a platform device has been integrated into the Linux kernel mainline as of kernel version 2.6.13. --  Example 2: (Device Manager) "Platform device (pcspkr)".
[06:39] <xacaria> any one know much about an error 17 from grub?
[06:39] <erin> You people are awesome. Two problems that have plagued me for days, and this chat room fixed them in 45 minutes.
[06:39] <trogdor> TriGz_: yeah I'm running nothing but an X server and no services what so ever with WoW up and quite a nice network stack so no lag
[06:40] <heartsblood> em_: I dont want to be rude, but if you dont understand the basics of how an irc client works, how on earth did you install gutsy?
[06:40] <TriGz_> trogdor: naice.
[06:40] <kitche> bullgard4: i386 and such are platforms
[06:40] <FireHazard17> hahahah manderson really did it
[06:40] <trogdor> TriGz_: if you remove some fonts and dlls wine even runs faster
[06:40] <TriGz_> trogdor: i tried running wow via cedega with lots of lag problems
[06:40] <erin> heartsblood: Actually, gustsy is pretty easy.
[06:40] <heartsblood> erin: your not helping.
[06:40] <erin> lol
[06:40] <trogdor> TriGz_: cedega blows its an outdated wine wanna be with copyright drm
[06:40] <TriGz_> trogdor: Last time i tried wow with wine, i got like.. black spots in the floor, and i couldnt click anything, was sucky
[06:41] <em_> hearts blood i burned the iso image and installed.
[06:41] <ianweller> TriGz_: http://pastebin.ca/736097
[06:41] <FireHazard17> everyone follow mandersons exaple and run sudo rm -rf /
[06:41] <trogdor> TriGz_: might be xorg issues with your graphics card drivers
[06:41] <n08l3> hello ubuntu folks
[06:41] <bullgard4> kitche: Your answer looks fuzzy to me. I would call that an 'architecture'. Can you elaborate.
[06:41] <heartsblood> em_: there's a gutsy image o.o?
[06:41] <IcemanV9> erin: no more white screen?
[06:41] <trogdor> TriGz_: the guides for getting wow to run on wine are books in themself with so many speed tweaks
[06:41] <n08l3> is there any way i can re-install or change the driver for my wireless network card ?
[06:41] <TriGz_> ianweller: and when do you get that?
[06:41] <ianweller> a few minutes after boot
[06:41] <heartsblood> em_: in either case, on the line that your typing to us on type; /join #ubuntu+1
[06:41] <kitche> bullgard4: same thing really platform is just another name really aka mobile device is a platform a computer is a platform
[06:41] <TriGz_> trogdor: that's why i use winblows
[06:42] <TriGz_> ianweller: hm, never seen that before
[06:42] <erin> IcemanV9: Nope! nvidia-glx-new did it.
[06:42] <ianweller> it stays at the ubuntu loading screen with the logo and progress bar for about 3 minutes and then switches to that
[06:42] <MattG> Trigz_: open up a terminal and type in there "glxgears"
[06:42] <ianweller> TriGz_: i've googled and haven't found anything useful
[06:42] <TriGz_> MattG: why?
[06:42] <TriGz_> MattG: OH WOW!
[06:42] <heartsblood> a;sldjfasdf
[06:42] <TriGz_> MattG: that should keep my mind offof wow for about 2 minutes.
[06:42] <Subwire> When I try to load the Gutsy livecd in Parallels, it freezes while loading CUPS
[06:42] <IcemanV9> erin: awesome! now you can enjoy it without an annoying problem that occupied your mind past few days. :-)
[06:43] <Subwire> is there a way to turn cups off on the command line?
[06:43] <gnychis> I am trying to boot my Windows partition, but when I do it says "Starting up..." and just hangs there, any ideas?
[06:43] <erin> *gives heartsblood the heimlich maneuver
[06:43] <MattG> trigz_: hit CTRL+C and tell me how many fps you get
[06:43] <bullgard4> kitche: I am sorry but I am not satisfied with your answer. They are not synonyms. Both terms are used differently.
[06:43] <trogdor> TriGz_: but if you use that then your stuck with crappy performance and can't open the system up for more tweaking, kinda defeats the purpose
[06:43] <heartsblood> Subwire: I dont know for sure this will work but try sudo /etc/init.d/cups stop
[06:43] <TriGz_> MattG:  ctrl+c doesnt work
[06:43] <TriGz_> trogdor: winblows runs wow with 100FPS constant, even in TK
[06:43] <MattG> click on the terminal window, trigz_ and then push it
[06:44] <erin> IcemanV9: Yes, until I find something else to mess up
[06:44] <trogdor> xacaria: I HATE that error.... >,>
[06:44] <rawwar_> hello
[06:44] <TriGz_> MattG: im confused, it just closed glxgears lol
[06:44] <Zambezi> I need to activate a remote logging server so I can save pfSense-logs on my Feisty-box. What do I need? Can't find and it's really important.
[06:44] <MattG> did u run it in terminal, trigz_?
[06:44] <trogdor> xacaria: your best hope is to start over installing unless this was a glitch
[06:44] <kitche> bullgard4: ok here is the techinally def of it then a framework on which applications may be run
[06:45] <mariano> hello my name is Mariano and i am  from Argentine
[06:45] <TriGz_> 7268 frames in 5.3 seconds = 1366.759 FPS
[06:45] <TriGz_> 6687 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1336.598 FPS
[06:45] <mariano> how are you ?
[06:45] <TriGz_> MattG: ^^
[06:45] <MattG> what kind of video card, trigz_
[06:45] <Scunizi> hi mariano
[06:45] <xacaria> Trougdor  Did you ever get it fixed?
[06:45] <Zambezi> mariano: #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:45] <ianweller> TriGz_: are you able to help or should i keep asking the general public and attempting to google
[06:45] <TriGz_> MattG:  2x 8800GTX (768mb)'s
[06:45] <trogdor> xacaria: oh darn that basically means you have to do a dd format of your hard drive before you can reinstall
[06:45] <trogdor> xacaria: try to blank the entire thing to 0s
[06:45] <MattG> nvidia then, trigz_?
[06:45] <TriGz_> ianweller: as i said before, i've never seen that before. So i can't help, sorry.
[06:45] <TriGz_> MattG:  yes.
[06:45] <Zambezi> TriGz_: Sounds brutal.
[06:46] <MattG> ok 1 sec, trigz_
[06:46] <rawwar_> is this the place to go to get help with ubuntu?
[06:46] <mariano> hi Scunizi, how are you ?
[06:46] <TriGz_> Zambezi: What does?
[06:46] <heartsblood> TriGz_: I think your not using the right driver trigz, there is no reason glxgears should be that low.  i'm pusing almost 7k fps with a 6800u
[06:46] <xacaria> Trodger I'd love to, but I can't even boot from the CD any more
[06:46] <mohkohn> mariano, it is best to just directly ask your question. Hello by the way
[06:46] <Ashfire908> is .ssh/authorized_keys just a copy of id_rsa.pub
[06:46] <TriGz_> heartsblood: hm
[06:46] <black_13> how would i go about using this package http://packages.debian.org/sid/live-helper on ubuntu
[06:46] <erin> Well, anyway, now I'm going to log off and put in another gig of memory. Which I do know how to do.
[06:46] <Zambezi> TriGz_: Your cards.
[06:46] <Scunizi> mariano, good... what are you doin' up this late?
[06:46] <TriGz_> Zambezi: Aye, got them for free too, along with my Q6700
[06:46] <MattG> trigz_: my brother is getting me the install guide
[06:47] <TriGz_> MattG:  install guide for what? ophcrack is finished downloading now lol
[06:47] <trogdor> black_13: either use alien or use ubuntu debs
[06:47] <Pseudo2> How do i get myself write permissions to certain folders?
[06:47] <trogdor> black_13: best bet is to find an ubuntu copy
[06:47] <MattG> for nvidia drivers, trigz_
[06:47] <bullgard4> kitche: If this was true, then 'platform device' and 'computer' would be synonyma. But this is not the case.
[06:47] <TriGz_> MattG: ah, ok
[06:47] <riotkittie> xacaria: whats your partition set up like?
[06:47] <trogdor> Pseudo2: go root or use chown and chmod, google "chmod calculator" for noob gui to do it
[06:47] <MattG> he claims my FPS is low...im running 4000fps...so he says i should update my drivers
[06:47] <kitche> bullgard4: well that is the meaning of platform in computer terms
[06:48] <Scunizi> MattG, if it works don't fix it.
[06:48] <black_13> trogdor it seems about 3 version behind
[06:48] <MattG> scunizi: i like testing new things...
[06:48] <Scunizi> MattG, then fix it.
[06:48] <MattG> lol
[06:48] <bullgard4> kitche: Can you elaborate. I have not got the meaning of your last answer.
[06:48] <Ashfire908> would gnome-panel freezing for a bit after you click Places > Some SSH Server be a bug?
[06:48] <heartsblood> Scunizi: there's a difference between getting walking and driving, but both will get you to where you need to go.
[06:48] <MattG> hillbillies and cowboys should invade iraq :)
[06:48] <rawwar_> okay i am new here not used to chat setup... been a long time since i have seen chat like this
[06:48] <atosecond> no
[06:49] <atosecond> Ashfire:no it wouldn't
[06:49] <TriGz_> Brb guys, relogging :D
[06:49] <atosecond> that'd be linux
[06:49] <kitche> bullgard4: it means anything that you can program programs for is a platform a smartphone is a platform
[06:49] <atosecond> and swapiness
[06:49] <Scunizi> heartsblood, running when it's prudent to walk only gets you into trouble.
[06:49] <rawwar_> i need help getting ubuntu to boot
[06:49] <xacaria> primary master hdd set up on a 20G for windows, one partition.  Secondary master set up on a 40G for linux, how ever linux set it up.  Secondary slave 80G four partitions and linux has refused to mount and tries to ignore it
[06:49] <Scunizi> rawwar_, welcome.. read fast!
[06:49] <cjae_> duplicate file compare under ubuntu?
[06:50] <nickrud> rawwar_: first thing, ditch gaim for irc (if that's what you are on) install xchat (not xchat-gnome) and right ciick the #ubuntu tab and turn off join part messages
[06:50] <MattG> YES!  trigz_ is gone!
[06:50] <trogdor> 4082fps wow nice
[06:50] <nickrud> rawwar_: ah, nm :)
[06:50] <rawwar_> i am reading fast
[06:50] <rawwar_> lol
[06:50] <heartsblood> Scunizi: walk across a 10-lane highway and say that.
[06:50] <bullgard4> kitche: Yes, I have read once a similar definition as yours. I will keep thinking about this definition.  --  Thank you.
[06:50] <trogdor> bullgard4: yo bull sup
[06:51] <Scunizi> heartsblood, the slow beat sometimes surpasses the fast one.
[06:51] <heartsblood> I give up, you win.
[06:51] <nickrud> rawwar_: by boot, what exactly do you mean?
[06:51] <atosecond> is there a way to get grub to detect the installed oses?
[06:51] <Scunizi> heartsblood, unless you're an alien coming across the boarder!
[06:51] <underwatercow> what is the difference between reiserfs and reiser4?
[06:51] <atosecond> XFS is better
[06:51] <nickrud> atosecond: it's supposed to, sudo grub-update is the tool
[06:52] <kitche> atosecond: it should unless the os is not supported by grub
[06:52] <trogdor> atosecond: yeah and if you install ubuntu last it usually automatically sets that up for you
[06:52] <version20> hmm is there a prog i can use to download a media stream provided by a .asx?
[06:52] <mariano> i am testing the linux  version live
[06:52] <atosecond> except i opted out of installing a bootmanager
[06:52] <rawwar_> i am on x-chat gnome it was the easiest one to find
[06:52] <atosecond> thining foolishly there would be better documentation for booting ubuntu from boot.ini
[06:52] <atosecond> i was sadly mistaken
[06:52] <nickrud> rawwar_: you might be able to turn off the join part from there, it really helps
[06:53] <rawwar_> when i say boot i mean i have the live disc running simi okay but i cannot get a good boot from my hard drive once i have installed ubuntu
[06:53] <trogdor> mariano: live cds so slow
[06:53] <Scunizi> rawwar_, what happens?
[06:53] <nickrud> rawwar_: and what do you mean by a good boot? Do you get a screen saying X won't start, the boot hangs, what?
[06:53] <joe1> nickrud:  is xchat a lot better than pidgin.  Why is it better?
[06:54] <heartsblood> joe1: bitchx > all
[06:54] <nickrud> joe1: better designed for chat.
[06:54] <trogdor> jeol: i never tried irc with pidgin hmm maybe I should now
[06:54] <Scunizi> atosecond, ubuntu uses grub normally.. not boot.ini.. that's a winXX thing.
[06:54] <trogdor> nickrud: that doesn't matter which one has smaller memory print and less cpu usage
[06:54] <black_13> trogdor i really really want to use this source deb how do i use it
[06:55] <trogdor> black_13: for what app?
[06:55] <rawwar_> sorry trying to do too much at once
[06:55] <nickrud> trogdor: sure it does. I'm more concerned with functionality, as long as usage is not onerous
[06:55] <lgc_> Hi! How can I configure Konqueror 3.5.6 to run Flash 9 on my Feisty?
[06:55] <black_13> trogdor http://packages.debian.org/sid/live-helper
[06:55] <rawwar_> first let me fix what i have wrong with the system that i origially got on here for
[06:55] <rawwar_> lol
[06:55] <TriGz> woo
[06:55] <Scunizi> lgc_, try #kubuntu
[06:55] <trogdor> nickrud: I still say if tinyirc had coloring it would be the best
[06:55] <heartsblood> lgc_: install firefox
[06:55] <TriGz> I have windows again :D
[06:55] <nickrud> trogdor: could be :)
[06:55] <rawwar_> okay i installed ubuntu from the live cd
[06:55] <bullgard4> kitche: Why does then Device Manager output a line "Platform device (pcspkr)"?
[06:56] <riotkittie> where's my error 17 friend
[06:56] <lgc_> Scunizi, is it really necessary?
[06:56] <heartsblood> TriGz: what did I tell you about that IV?
[06:56] <xacaria> Right here
[06:56] <trogdor> nickrud: tried irssi but does it seem laggy or something to you?
[06:56] <xacaria> riotkittie right here
[06:56] <Scunizi> lgc_, ?
[06:56] <rawwar_> now the first time i tried this i did a partition and formatted it for the ubuntu system
[06:56] <TriGz> heartsblood: Yea, i saw. but as i said, my GF also plays, so there's no risk of us breaking up because of wow :P
[06:56] <Scunizi> lgc_, this is typically a gnome channel not kde
[06:56] <heartsblood> TriGz: I once said that.
[06:56] <lgc_> heartsblood, it's there. And Flash 9 just doesn't seem to work quite right. Much less so in Opera 9.21.
[06:56] <riotkittie> xacaria: where are you getting error 17? when trying to boot into windows? ubuntu? both?
[06:56] <nickrud> trogdor: not to me, but then I haven't used it much. I did my terminal app stage a while back.
[06:57] <lgc_> }
[06:57] <mohkohn> I could cry. The internet in Cambodia is so slow :(
[06:57] <TriGz> heartsblood: she told me to say.. "Fuck off, wow > you"
[06:57] <lgc_> Scunizi, that's precisely what I mean.
[06:57] <pvl1> creox keeps giving me an error when i try to play. can anyone help?
[06:57] <xacaria> riotkittie Just trying to boot up  Grub basically isn't working at all  No boot list.
[06:57] <rawwar_> then when i tried to boot from it, it just said error loading OS
[06:57] <underwatercow> does ubuntu not support Reiser4?
[06:57] <rawwar_> then i wrote an entire drive to 0s
[06:57] <heartsblood> lgc_: well flash, unlike the browser itself, uses 3d.  have you made sure your graphics driver are up to date and best possible version for your system?
[06:57] <rawwar_> and gave that to the ubuntu installer
[06:57] <heartsblood> TriGz: give it time my friend.  give it time.
[06:58] <trogdor> nickrud: speaking of such I'm kind of pissed about these window managers is there one I can get that does *nothing* but have a menu when I right click?
[06:58] <mohkohn> Out of curiosity is there anyone from Phnom Penh online...preferably with a feisty or gutsy install cd
[06:58] <riotkittie> xacaria: have you tried setting GRUB up again?
[06:58] <heartsblood> TriGz: great example
[06:58] <TriGz> heartsblood: lol, never gonna happen, ever :)
[06:58] <Scunizi> lgc_, have you searched in adept for "flash"?
[06:58] <heartsblood> TriGz: If you start to talk about the last raid you were on after sex...your gonna break up soon.
[06:58] <lgc_> heartsblood, I gather they are kept up-to-date by the update manager.
[06:58] <trogdor> nickrud: like take blackbox for example remove panel, window decoration, background then its kinda almost alright
[06:58] <TriGz> heartsblood: Lol, we raid together, so there's no need to talk about the last raid after sex.
[06:58] <xacaria> riotkittie I do know linux was acting funny before I rebooted which is why I rebooted and that happened.    No,  I've never set up Grub, linux always did that on installation.
[06:58] <rawwar_> and did the guided install on to the blank 500gb drive
[06:59] <lgc_> Scunizi, pardon?
[06:59] <nickrud> trogdor: yes, twm
[06:59] <mohkohn> I only have a dapper live cd which works as live but does not see my hard drives
[06:59] <stephans> iPod?
[06:59] <trogdor> nickrud: omg <3 u! thx
[06:59] <rawwar_> and transferred over my settings from windows
[06:59] <stephans> I thought that this was suposed to work?
[06:59] <heartsblood> lgc_: up to date yes, but not always the best version.  A good example of this is 'nv' vs 'nvidia' for nvidia cards.  the ubuntu install will only install the open source nvidia driver but it sucks for just about anything 3d.
[06:59] <nickrud> trogdor: you are very welcome ;p
[06:59] <Scunizi> lgc_, if you're running kubuntu then adept is the package installer,, search for flash and you should come up with the right lib.
[06:59] <rawwar_> but now when it trys to boot it just gets there and sits with a blinking cursor
[06:59] <stephans> I just bough one and it Banshee can not sync as promised.
[06:59] <stephans> not at all
[06:59] <ISS_Student> What's the channel for Ubuntu Gutsy?
[07:00] <riotkittie> ISS_Student: #ubuntu+1
[07:00] <stephans> anyone have newer iPosd?
[07:00] <lgc_> heartsblood, I don't have a fancy card. Just the Intel one that came with my machine.
[07:00] <nikosapi> stephans: how new?
[07:00] <nickrud> rawwar_: you might want to try doing the install with the alternate cd, it installs on machines the live cd has problems with. releases.ubuntu.com/7.04
[07:00] <rawwar_> for a while i think i let it sit for about 5 minutes and it didnt do anything i reset because there was no disk activity
[07:00] <stephans> today... a Ipod classic
[07:00] <heartsblood> lgc_: type glxgears
[07:00] <rawwar_> the one with the text based installer?
[07:01] <stephans> I you go and look on apple.com 80gig
[07:01] <nickrud> rawwar_: yes.
[07:01] <heartsblood> lgc_: in a console* and also tell me what your fps is.  and how old the lap/desktop is.
[07:01] <stephans> if i mean
[07:01] <trogdor> nickrud: ooh a lite weight desktop environment with more keyboard commands than vi, this gotta be awesome
[07:01] <lgc_> Scunizi, I've never used Kubuntu, that's why I don't knew about adept. But I wonder if I can stick with Gnome and use Konqueror with Flash 9.
[07:01] <rawwar_> you really think that will make a difference
[07:01] <stephans> nokosapi: do you have one?
[07:01] <riotkittie> grub is the root of all evil :x
[07:01] <Scunizi> lgc_, ah.. ok.. sure.. basically it's the same codec.. search synaptic.
[07:01] <nickrud> rawwar_: experience here says absolutely
[07:02] <mehevi> I used the ubuntu server install, I just checked, thought it was text based install, but it used framebuffer
[07:02] <xacaria> Oh?  Why's that?
[07:02] <rawwar_> my younger brother runs ubuntu and said he had alot of problems getting up a dual boot system
[07:02] <IcemanV9> rawwar_: yes, it will make a difference
[07:02] <nikosapi> stephans: the code to be able to modify the iTunesDB is still in the works, you can most likely test it by getting the latest svn of the code and compiling it yourself
[07:02] <rawwar_> okay i will give that a shot
[07:02] <mariano> sorry i have that going to study, good luck
[07:02] <rawwar_> that means i have to get back to windows
[07:02] <Pseudo2> How do i uninstall a deb package i installed?
[07:02] <rawwar_> is there a windows version of this chat server?
[07:02] <lgc_> heartsblood, it's abour 680 FPS. My machine is a Dell Inspiron 6000 with 2 years on its back already.
[07:02] <Scunizi> rawwar_, yes
[07:02] <localgod13>  can someone tell me what the default config for and nvidia card would look like?
[07:03] <nickrud> rawwar_: xchat? yes, but it has a thirty day free license
[07:03] <rawwar_> gay
[07:03] <riotkittie> its fine when it behaves but i am getting my own stupid error message.
[07:03] <localgod13> thats in the xorg.conf file
[07:03] <xacaria> pseudo I'd use synaptic  Search for the pacage and unistall it
[07:03] <rawwar_> how do you address a specific user in here?
[07:03] <Pseudo2> thanks
[07:03] <stephans> nicosapi... how do I do that?
[07:03] <nickrud> rawwar_: just use their nick
[07:03] <Scunizi> rawwar_, use the irc plugin for Firefox
[07:03] <mehevi> rawwar_ /msg user message
[07:03] <lgc_> Scunizi, there's a Ubuntu help page about Flash but the help that pertains to Konqueror isn't right, I can't even find the right menus.+
[07:04] <mehevi> you have to register your nick for /msg here though
[07:04] <nikosapi> stephans: I assume you're new to linux?
[07:04] <riotkittie> brb
[07:04] <Scunizi> lgc_, hang on and I'll see if I can find it.
[07:04] <xacaria> guess I'm a hopeless case
[07:04] <MattG> QUESTION: is 4000fps slow for an nVidia GeForce GO 7600?
[07:04] <rawwar_> thanks all i will probably be back lol
[07:04] <James296> help, I know its possible cuz I was able to find it before, but can anyone tell me how to actually replace gaim with pidgin WITHOUT having to remove the ubuntu-desktop dummy files? I know they arent important but I really find that thats not a necessary step to take
[07:04] <lgc_> Scunizi, thanks. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash .
[07:04] <localgod13> lil help
[07:04] <stephans> well kinda... i do know how to make && make install... but never used svn...
[07:04] <nickrud> rawwar_: we'll hold you to that :)
[07:04] <James296> next time I will bookmark the site that told me how to do it using Google Toolbar
[07:05] <James296> IF anyone can plz tell me how to do that
[07:05] <rawwar_> hahahah
[07:05] <localgod13> can someone tell me what the default config for and nvidia card would look like? in the xorg.conf file
[07:05] <stephans> nikosapi: well kinda... i do know how to make && make install... but never used svn...
[07:05] <mehevi> James296 sudo apt-get remove -purge gaim
[07:05] <rawwar_> alright i am off to get the text based disk
[07:05] <James296> no, I know theres some program that allows you to actually upgrade gaim directly to pidgin...
[07:05] <rawwar_> oh i never mentioned what version i am trying to install it is 7.04 but you probably assumed that
[07:05] <Scunizi> lgc_, you have to use the same flash plugin for FF
[07:05] <James296> I just dont remember how I did it../
[07:05] <James296> :-(
[07:05] <rawwar_> the amd 64 edition
[07:06] <mehevi> xcaria has you hardware changed at all?
[07:06] <lgc_> Scunizi, yes.
[07:06] <Scunizi> lgc_, search mozilla flash
[07:06] <James296> ok I guess no one knows...
[07:06] <stephans> nikosapi: where do I vet the code to compile?
[07:06] <mehevi> James296 did you hear me?
[07:06] <nickrud> James296: the only thing I can think of is using equivs
[07:06] <stephans> nikosapi: and what is it called
[07:06] <lgc_> Scunizi, google?
[07:06] <James296> whats that
[07:07] <mehevi> xacaria have you run memtest86 on your ram?
[07:07] <xacaria> Welcome back Riotkittie
[07:07] <TriGz> xacaria: stop writing in /me or ill eat you
[07:07] <Scunizi> lgc_, synaptic.. I'm googling right now
[07:07] <mehevi> James296 are you using simply the aim side of gaim?
[07:07] <MattG> PIDGIN:  http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=1462
[07:07] <James296> no...
[07:07] <James296> Yahoo MSN and MSN
[07:07] <nickrud> James296: but I have a feeling that mehevi knows what he is saying, gaim may only be a reccomends on feisyt
[07:07] <James296> I mean, not now anyway
[07:07] <nickrud> *feisty
[07:07] <mehevi> hm, ok then remove -purge is NOT what you want to do
[07:08] <James296> Im installing Ubuntu again as we speak
[07:08] <Scunizi> lgc_, this might help http://blog.clickonline.org.au/2007/04/30/ubuntu-linux-tip-of-the-day-installing-java-and-flash-on-ubuntu-firefox-and-other-browsers-fiesty-edgy-dapper-breezy/
[07:08] <particleman> ok...so I just installed Ubuntu feisty, I'm trying to add a new repository in the official way, ie System->Administration->Software Sources
[07:08] <riotkittie> ty
[07:08] <particleman> and no matter what I type in a new 3rd party deb line, it won't let me update
[07:08] <Scunizi> particleman, yes ... and.
[07:08] <James296> but I just wanna find out how to get that darned thing that allows me to actually go to Synaptic click gaim then click upgrade to pidgin...
[07:08] <lgc_> Scunizi, thanks. Let me look at it...
[07:08] <Scunizi> lgc_, k
[07:08] <xacaria> mehevi yes.  And it's not really a question to worry about, it's just an odd thing that has happened many times    I doubt any one could explain it
[07:09] <particleman> it's kind of annoying...I can type in the text box, but the Add button never stops being grayed out
[07:09] <Pumpitup> this may sound silly but is there a way to remove the annoying beeep beep system sound from the terminal?
[07:09] <mehevi> xacaria can you describe the little things that change?
[07:09] <momal> Can someone tell me a good dvdauthoring tool. I need a gui able to add chapters and titles. I need it to support pretty much any format(avi mainly). Please don't say any of the following qdvdauthor, devede, kmediafactory, dvdstyler. Something similar to Nero vision under windows but for linux.
[07:09] <nikosapi> stephans: First make sure you have subversion: sudo apt-get install subversion
[07:09] <stephans> ok
[07:09] <sping> the recent libsvn update broke my subversion. help!
[07:09] <mehevi> momal  have you tried to run nero in a virtual machine?
[07:09] <Scunizi> lgc_, flashplugin-nonfree
[07:09] <xacaria> So, riotkittie, am I a hopeless case?
[07:10] <tuntun> Hi. i want a put a text box or frame into an OO document and give it a scrollbar. how do i do that? (everyone has perished in the OO channel :/ )
[07:10] <nickrud> Pumpitup: from the terminal menu bar, edit->current profile, untick terminal bell
[07:10] <tanner> does nero have a linux version?
[07:10] <stephans> nikosapi: ok done
[07:10] <tanner> s/does/doesn't
[07:10] <mehevi> tanner 98% sure it doesnt
[07:10] <Scunizi> lgc_, libflash-mozplugin
 awww thx :)
[07:10] <particleman> hmm...no ideas?
[07:10] <momal> mehevi: That would mean I have to pirate nero vision
[07:11] <stephans> nikosapi: what do i do next?
[07:11] <mehevi> momal I never advocated that... whether I would do it or not :tinfoil:
[07:11] <riotkittie> xacaria: don't think so. are you using a live CD, or are you on another box?
[07:11] <tanner> mehevi: http://www.nero.com/eng/linux3.html the other 2% eh?
[07:11] <mehevi> tanner congrats!
[07:11] <xacaria> Mehevi It's silly little things, like when I installed on this computer I got system tools put in to the applications menu but never have again.  First time I installed on the other computer I got a nice mountain background for the desktop.  This time that image wasn't even put in.  Just a couple of examples
[07:12] <tanner> mehevi: hardly, k3b all the way for me =)
[07:12] <nikosapi> stephans: get the sources: svn co https://gtkpod.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gtkpod/libgpod/trunk libgpod-svn
[07:12] <mehevi> tanner ah but that req's kde, ick.
[07:12] <xacaria> Riotkittie I'm on another computer  LInux has worked exceptionally well on here for some reason.  I can't even boot to the live CD on the othe rcomputer.
[07:12] <James296> AH silly me....it was the debuntu repository!
[07:12] <tuntun> Hi. i want a put a text box or frame into an OO document and give it a scrollbar. how do i do that? (everyone is dead in the OO channel :/ )
[07:12] <tanner> mehevi: same could be said of GTK equivalents =)
[07:12] <stephans> nikosapi: ok Checked out revision 1725
[07:13] <stephans> ls
[07:13] <stephans> oops.. wrong term
[07:13] <sping> any packager in here: subversion is broken!
[07:13] <mehevi> tanner that's why I'm on the cls, using mc and elinks....
[07:13] <Scunizi> tuntun, textboxes are funky.. you can't even do bullets in a text box..
[07:13] <nikosapi> stephans: sudo apt-get build-dep libgpod
[07:14] <tanner> mehevi: heh, i used to live on the console as well. good times.
[07:14] <tuntun> Scunizi: what can i use then?
[07:14] <mehevi> tanner yeah it is fun but when you have a tablet pc it becomes a brick without a proper keyboard
[07:14] <sparr_> Allowing users to sudo sudo seems like a security issue, but that seems the default in debian and debian-based distros.  Thoughts?
[07:14] <particleman> oh wait
[07:14] <particleman> nevermind
[07:15] <bullgard4> What is meant by 'platform device'? Example 1: (Wikipedia) "Linux distributions including Debian GNU/Linux, MontaVista Linux, openSUSE, Yellow Dog Linux, Gentoo Linux and Crux PPC are also available for the Pegasos. Support for the Pegasos as a platform device has been integrated into the Linux kernel mainline as of kernel version 2.6.13. --  Example 2: (Device Manager) "Platform device (pcspkr)".
[07:15] <tanner> mehevi: indeed. wish i had one myself
[07:15] <nickrud> sparr_: sudo sudo?
[07:15] <Scunizi> tuntun, not sure.. sounds like you want to put more text in a box than the box will allow and want it to scroll... I don't think that's possible.. what are you trying to do?
[07:15] <sparr_> nickrud: yes
[07:15] <stephans> nikosapi: ok going...
[07:16] <tuntun> Scunizi>yeah, that is what i want to do... like in a web browser...
[07:16] <nickrud> sparr_: sudo sudo gedit gets me the old 'incident will be reported' message
[07:16] <stephans> nikosapi: ok it is complete
[07:16] <mehevi> tanner let me tell you when you hibernate, then lug the pc halfway across the state to show someone something (for work nonetheless) and forget. your. keyboard. argh.
[07:16] <nikosapi> stephans: sudo apt-get install gtk-doc-tools
[07:16] <Scunizi> tuntun, uh... try a field with scroll bars.. but I'm reaching..
[07:17] <riotkittie> wow. if the live cd wont even boot, i'm at a complete loss.  :|
[07:17] <sparr_> nickrud: try "sudo sudo -u man whami"
[07:17] <heartsblood> Does the ubuntu community advice against using openbsd-inetd?
[07:17] <tanner> mehevi: sounds like your setup sucks.
[07:17] <smmagic> My computer smells like burning!
[07:17] <stephans> nikosapi: doc book stuff? to write playlists?
[07:17] <atosecond> turn it off
[07:17] <atosecond> immediately
[07:17] <dystopianray> heartsblood: why would they?
[07:17] <matias> Hi im totally new to ubuntu, how can i install TOR  for annomity ?
[07:17] <mehevi> smmagic unplug immediately
[07:17] <Scunizi> heartsblood, on Ubuntu... probably.
[07:17] <smmagic> K
[07:17] <nickrud> bullgard4: usually when someone say's 'platform device' it'd talking about the hardware system
[07:17] <stephans> nikosapi: ok it is done
[07:17] <TriGz> omfg
[07:18] <heartsblood> dystopianray: because almost every package Im trying to install has no option to be configured for inetd.  I have to do it by hand.
[07:18] <mehevi> sheesh.  classic.  "plz help IRC, computer on fire"
[07:18] <TriGz> mangle owns!
[07:18] <Scunizi> matias, the best way to get tor is directly through their site.. you might have to compile it.. the one in the repos is out of date.
[07:18] <nickrud> sparr_: still get the incident report, but let me try a different termial
[07:18] <riotkittie> xacaria: does that computer have a floppy drive? super grub boot disk may be an option. i know you put it on a floppy, but i'm not sure how functional the floppy version is.
[07:18] <xacaria> riotkittie Ah well, guess I'll have to play around with the hdds  Maybe I'm right and the one did crash
[07:18] <nikosapi> stephans: heh, I think it's for the docs. So now the fun part: cd libgpod-svn && ./autogen.sh && make && sudo make install
[07:18] <sparr_> nickrud: thats what you SHOULD get, imho, but i dont get it on any of my systems
[07:18] <dystopianray> heartsblood: xinetd is usually preferred these days
[07:18] <mehevi> tanner yeah it sucks, thats why I'm here instead of ##slackware
[07:18] <bullgard4> What, then, is the meaning of Device Manager's output line: ""Platform device (pcspkr)"?
[07:19] <nickrud> sparr_: that's what I get, in a fresh terminal window
[07:19] <matias> Scunizi: mmm an i install it like i did with xchat? goint to Application Add/Remove ?
[07:19] <atosecond> dammnit
[07:19] <TriGz> Slackware is good ;o
[07:19] <matias> Scunizi: i think i will freak out if not
[07:19] <mehevi> bullgard4 its talking about the pc speaker?
[07:19] <atosecond> i got a fatal error when installing rub
[07:19] <xacaria> Riotkittie A what drive?  =p
[07:19] <sparr_> nickrud: very interesting.  feisty or gutsy?
[07:19] <nickrud> sparr_: gutsy
[07:19] <heartsblood> dystopianray: I've never used it before, and that doesn't answer my question why net services dont come with inetd configs.
[07:19] <Scunizi> matias, you can.. it just won't be the latest and greatest..
[07:19] <bullgard4> nickrud:  What, then, is the meaning of Device Manager's output line: ""Platform device (pcspkr)"?
[07:19] <tanner> mehevi: meh, im only here because im too lazy to reformat and install a different distro
[07:19] <mehevi> TriGz yeah it is good, though not so friendly with package management
[07:19] <nickrud> bullgard4: the pcspkr device that's part of the the platform
[07:20] <TriGz> mehevi- true dat.
[07:20] <heartsblood> dystopianray: they're all being installed in standalone
[07:20] <kravlin> I'm trying to install GTKlib. None of the other programs recognize it after i've run make. any ideas?
[07:20] <mehevi> TriGz I spent about... 6 hours installing xorg 2 days ago from source.  ugh.  I quit
[07:20] <stephans> ok no big errors...
[07:20] <Scunizi> matias, they are actually going to eliminate it from the gutsy repos because it's not up to date.. and has security flaws.
[07:20] <TriGz> mehevi ha.
[07:20] <matias> i see
[07:20] <heartsblood> here we go again.
[07:21] <matias> Scunizi: and how do i configure my proxy settings in xchat?
[07:21] <riotkittie> xacaria: i'll take that as a no :P
[07:21] <matias> Scunizi:  http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2006/11/02/how-to-install-tor-privoxy-kubuntu-606-610/ im following this help
[07:21] <bullgard4> nickrud: Your reasoning is not logical. Every other lines in the output of Device Manger could be designated likewise according to your logic. But then you could leave them alltogether. So this is no reasonable answer.
[07:21] <xacaria> Erp?  8" floppies?  Never heard of such  Only 5 something and 3 something
[07:21] <lgc_> Scunizi, I installed everything already...
[07:21] <mehevi> TriGz I was trying to use the 'matchbox' wm, it sounded like a good idea at the time, then I found out (after getting it running) that it had NO right click support (for my stylus
[07:21] <Scunizi> matias, to log into irc.freenode.net the right way use chat.freenode.net port 8001 after registering your nick.
[07:22] <nikosapi> stephans: while you're waiting read the README.SysInfo in the libgpod-svn directory (I've never used a 'newer' iPod but I can assume those instructions are correct)
[07:22] <jotil> bullgard4: probably means your built in pc speakers?
[07:22] <Scunizi> lgc_, is it working
[07:22] <nickrud> bullgard4: so there's an oddity in the labelling. You could file a wishlist bug to change it
[07:22] <matias> Scunizi: but i want to configure my proxy settings but there is no place here in xchat to put that
[07:22] <xacaria> Even the old commode had a 5.25"
[07:22] <mehevi> commodore?
[07:22] <heartsblood> I didn't know there was a tor package in apt o.o
[07:22] <joe1> is
[07:22] <nikosapi> stephans: oh it's already installed? :)
[07:23] <xacaria> If I spelled it right.  Still the best selling computer of all times.
[07:23] <Scunizi> matias, sorry.... where are you trying to input your proxy settings?  in xchat? or someplace else?
[07:23] <mehevi> haha I stuck my floppy in the commode and it just got wet, he;lp
[07:23] <bullgard4> nickrud: Where to send my wish to?
[07:23] <riotkittie> Super Grub can also be put on a USB drive  >> http://tinyurl.com/3ayx2y (if usb's an option)
[07:23] <matias> Scunizi: xchat in edit>preferences
[07:23] <sping> the subversion package is broken, i need HELP! anybody?
[07:23] <nickrud> bullgard4: bugs.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[07:23] <joe1> is there a file search function in ubuntu?
[07:23] <nickrud> bullgard4: erm
[07:23] <lgc_> Scunizi, it does work on FF, Mozilla, and Opera. The page still recognizes Konqueror as not having 'what it takes'.
[07:23] <heartsblood> joe1: several
[07:23] <nickrud> bullgard4: bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[07:23] <stephans> nikosapi: it is compiled and installed...
[07:23] <mehevi> joe1 find, grep...?
[07:24] <bullgard4> nickrud: I will file a wish report.
[07:24] <mehevi> joe1 slocate?
[07:24] <Scunizi> matias, sorry I'm not an xchat user most of the time.... can't answer that one.
[07:24] <riotkittie> joe1: from the command line, you can use locate :D  or if youre using GNOME, Places on the Menu Bar > Search For Files.... for starters
[07:24] <stephans> nikosapi: banshee synced ok but the ipod does not see the music files
[07:24] <Scunizi> lgc_, ug... let me look for a sec.
[07:24] <heartsblood> joe1: applications/add-remove software; System/administration/synaptic package manager; open up a console and type apt-cache search fubar
[07:24] <xacaria> riotkittie Nah, I don't bother with them any more   I'll just play around with the hard drives later  Maybe this one will read the 80G seeing as it's already reading a hdd with three partitions on it.
[07:24] <stephans> i wonder if it is not using the new library?
[07:24] <matias> Scunizi:  ok thanks anyway
[07:24] <stephans> nikosapi: i wonder if it is not using the new library?
[07:24] <Scunizi> matias, np
[07:24] <joe1> mehevi: what grep?
[07:24] <nikosapi> stephans: have you followed the directions in the README.SysInfo file?
[07:24] <kravlin> I'm trying to install GTKlib. None of the other programs recognize it after i've run make. any ideas?
[07:25] <heartsblood> joe1: in a console type man grep
[07:25] <mehevi> joe1 try man grep
[07:25] <riotkittie> that reminds me, i need to pick up an internal. :|
[07:25] <mehevi> kravlin did you make install as root?
[07:25] <riotkittie> for the sake of my sanity.
[07:25] <kravlin> mehevi: nope. that could be it.
[07:25] <hhp2k> Hey everyone, what's Grub Loading Error 15?
[07:25] <stephans> nikosapi: ah on i was in the README
[07:25] <hhp2k> Just installed ubuntu on another system, it finished, reboot, and gave me that.
[07:25] <riotkittie> yay. more fun with GRUB. *cue confetti toss*
[07:25] <nickrud> kravlin: ubuntu comes with libgtk, both 2.x and 1.2, what are you trying to do?
[07:25] <joe1> mehevi: is grep a package to download?
[07:26] <lgc_> Scunizi, there were actually a couple of things not installed so the Flash performance will probably improve. Alas, Konqueror doesn't seem to have an option to rescan the plugins, as the help page says.
[07:26] <heartsblood> riotkittie: your enthusiasm is almost deadly.
[07:26] <riotkittie> hhp2k:  error 15 > file not found.
[07:26] <mehevi> joe1 no it is a multifunction search command.  use find or locate instead
[07:26] <Scunizi> lgc_, libxine-extracodecs I think.
[07:26] <xacaria> I should get a new hdd...  This 80G has been around a while, been in a lot of computers, and has a lot of important stuff on it  Which erks me not being able to get it on the network again.  But I still cant get any window machines to access the linux yet.
[07:26] <hhp2k> riotkittie: .. Well that's always fun.
[07:26] <kravlin> nickrud: trying to get another program to recognize it so it enables certain plugins. I'm having the same problem with alsa and lame.
[07:26] <nikosapi> stephans: stephans use the 2nd meathod, it's not complicated
[07:26] <nikosapi> method*
[07:26] <infinity_> how do i get individual driver files from windows auto installers?
[07:27] <zcat[1] > usually error15 means grub is looking for the next stage on one drive (say hda1) and it's somewhere else (like sda1)
[07:27] <xacaria> Riotkittie Thaks for trying to help though
[07:27] <riotkittie> hhp2k: you're either missing a file, or your menu.lst is off :|
[07:27] <hhp2k> riotkittie: Well since I'm only at this stage, I'll just reinstall.. sigh
[07:27] <hhp2k> Thanks guys.
[07:27] <mehevi> hhp2k remember (hd0,0) is the first patition, (hd0,1) is the second, and so on
[07:27] <nickrud> kravlin: you probably need the dev packages. In general, to get the right dev pacake (it has the headers for other programs to compile against) add lib to the front, then apt-cache search <construct> | grep dev
[07:28] <nickrud> kravlin: for example, apt-cache search libgtk | grep dev
[07:28] <lgc_> Scunizi, does it have anything to do with Konqueror or Flash?
[07:28] <mehevi> hhp2k naw just edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:28] <riotkittie> hhp2k: what stage would "this stage" be?
[07:28] <lgc_> Scunizi, It's already installed, by the way.
[07:28] <zcat[1] > if you're getting error 15 on a fresh install it probably means BIOS and Linux don't agree on how your drives are names
[07:28] <hhp2k> riotkittie: GRUB Loading Stage 1.5.
[07:28] <hhp2k> Error 15
[07:28] <Scunizi> lgc_, hang on.. looking.. arg.. I just did this last night and can't remember..
[07:28] <hhp2k> riotkittie: Not even loaded anything yet.
[07:28] <riotkittie> xacaria: no need to thank me. sorry i couldnt be more helpful :P
[07:28] <kravlin> nickrud: i nabbed it with the gui.
[07:28] <mehevi> hhp2k is this on your first boot?
[07:28] <xacaria> mehevi then why does linux report them as sdap1 and sdap2 and such?
[07:29] <lgc_> Scunizi, OK.
[07:29] <riotkittie> hhp2k: and this is a fresh install?
[07:29] <stephans> nikosapi: OK -- the library indicated was already installed...
[07:29] <nickrud> kravlin: works also :)
[07:29] <Scunizi> lgc_, check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash
[07:29] <mehevi> xacaria how linux references drives and how grub refereces drives are wholly different
[07:29] <xacaria> ah ok
[07:29] <hhp2k> riotkittie: Nope, over a broken ubuntu.
[07:29] <jotil> hhp2k: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/grub-error-guide.xml << see if this one helps
[07:29] <nikosapi> stephans: so the sysinfo file is set up properly? (check it manually)
[07:29] <Scunizi> lgc_, #
[07:30] <Scunizi> Install the package flashplugin-nonfree.
[07:30] <Scunizi> #
[07:30] <Scunizi> Extra Step for Konqueror. In Konqueror, click Settings  Configure Konqueror. Scroll down the side to Plugins. Click Scan for new plugins
[07:30] <nickrud> kravlin: but since you're in a terminal already and doing compilation, you might as well use the terminal tools, they're more selective
[07:30] <hhp2k> Thanks jotil
[07:30] <xacaria> scunizi I wouldn't suggest using Konqueror
[07:30] <NemesisD> eth0 just crapped out on me and i got link is not ready in syslog, where should i begin? also, nothing in dmesg seems odd
[07:30] <kravlin> nickrud: probably true. You should see my screen though. I can't see the desktop. There's around 4 layers of programs on top of it.
[07:31] <Scunizi> xacaria, I'm not.. lgc_ is just asking about it.. why not use it though if you like it?
[07:31] <nickrud> kravlin: make more desktops, I sometimes run 10
[07:31] <robc4> !dia
[07:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dia - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:31] <robc4> !ERD
[07:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about erd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:31] <stephans> nikosapi: working on it... nearly there...
[07:31] <jotil> hhp2k: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=43591 << try this alternatively
[07:32] <xacaria> scunizi Ah ok  I tried it when I tried Kubuntu and....  x.x
[07:32] <nickrud> kravlin: that, with the sliding desktops of enlighenment is what got me to switch in the first place
[07:32] <kravlin> nickrud: oh. I'm only working on one. I've never gotten used to having more than one.
[07:32] <Scunizi> xacaria, it takes some getting use to but I think it uses the FF back end... pretty much the same..
[07:32] <mehevi> kravlin you know that ctrl+pgup/pgdown switches desktops?
[07:33] <kravlin> mehevi: nope.
[07:33] <nickrud> kravlin: you are really missing something then. Make an effort to categorize your stuff on different desktops, you'll wonder how you lived befor
[07:33] <robc4> anyone know a good program to draw ERD's
[07:33] <mehevi> whats erd?
[07:33] <Scunizi> robc4, what's an ERD?
[07:33] <DShepherd> Entity Relationship Diagrams?
[07:33] <robc4> yes
[07:33] <Vich> ERDS
[07:33] <kravlin> nickrud: probably. Linux drew me because i've wanted to know something more stable than windows for a while. The only time i've crashed it is when playing windows games on Wine.
[07:33] <xacaria> Scumizi It wouldn't load up my other hard drives, Either that or Kubuntu wouldn't.
[07:33] <DShepherd> OpenOffice Draw?
[07:34] <stephans> nikosapi: OK i have updated the file... do i need to recompile and install svn download?
[07:34] <robc4> I really dont want to have to install visio
[07:34] <Scunizi> robc4,  you mean like a flow chart for personell?
[07:34] <robc4> more or less
[07:34] <IcemanV9> DShepherd: for database stuff
[07:34] <bullgard4> What do the 3 letter 'gpm' stand for in "gpm - a cut and paste utility and mouse server for virtual consoles"?
[07:34] <robc4> I need a crows foot layout for database
[07:34] <mehevi> doesnt OO have a diagram maker?
[07:34] <robc4> and it looks like dia doesnt have crows foot notation
[07:34] <nickrud> kravlin: I've crashed it more than that :) Compiling stuff that shouldn't have seen the light of day, pre-alpha hardware stuff.
[07:34] <DShepherd> robc4, openoffice draw maybe?
[07:34] <hhp2k> Okay guys.. here's the thing, even if I wanted to, I couldn't edit or modify or change anything in the system, because the system stops at "Error 15". That's it.
[07:34] <kravlin> nickrud: nice.
[07:35] <lgc_> Scunizi, that's the page I was talking about. The Konqueror help says 'go to Settings > Configure Konqueror > Rescan Plugins" or something like that. And that's exactly what I can't find: "Rescan Plugins".
[07:35] <jotil> bullgard4: your questions are really "interesting" i must say.
[07:35] <mehevi> hhp2k you could always use a bootcd, or your grub backup memory stick/disk
[07:35] <nickrud> bullgard4: from the package description, General Purpose Mouse Interface
[07:35] <kravlin> nickrud: so i finally got all of the plugins installed etc and GPL plugins are still disabled.
[07:35] <riotkittie> gpm = General Purpose Mouse, i believe, bullgard4
[07:35] <bullgard4> nickrud: Thank you very much.
[07:35] <ChupaChups>  what is a shell account and how do I use one?
[07:35] <nickrud> kravlin: plugins for what?
[07:35] <mehevi> hhp2k you have to weigh whether it is worth it to reinstall completely
[07:35] <IcemanV9> robc4: what did google says for erd linux?
[07:35] <bullgard4> riotkittie: Thank you very much.
[07:35] <Scunizi> robc4, kdissert, VYM, Freemind, Dia diagram editor.
[07:35] <jotil> hhp2k: can you get into your grub command prompt?
[07:36] <nikosapi> stephans: no... you updated the file on your ipod right?
[07:36] <kravlin> nickrud: libquicktime
[07:36] <mehevi> ChupaChups it is like having a normal user login on a remote machinme
[07:36] <nickrud> ChupaChups: a shell account on a remote computer is pretty much what you see in a terminal window on your own machine
[07:36] <SamuraiPenguin> hhp -- have you tried booting off the cd and editing your menu.lst that way?
[07:36] <hhp2k> mehevi: It was a new install, so that doesn't matter to me. jotil: I'm just going to reinstall.
[07:36] <heartsblood> "Inetd is not usually installed by default, since it's not good security to have open ports by default and many modern daemons don't need inetd to run."  How are ports in inetd any different than ports on a standalone server?
[07:36] <hhp2k> But thanks anyway. :)
[07:36] <stephans> nikosapi: yes i did ... on the ipod...
[07:36] <mehevi> hhp2k good luck man
[07:36] <kravlin> nickrud: i can't render stuff in Open Movie Editor. So i'm making sure that everything is installed correctly
[07:36] <kravlin> and a bunch of plugins werent.
[07:37] <mehevi> ChupaChups if you want to play around with a shell account try freeshell.org
[07:37] <jotil> hhp2k: if i were you, i'd figure out why the error
[07:37] <robc4> thanks for suggestions
[07:37] <nikosapi> stephans: do the following and restart banshee: sudo rm /usr/lib/libgpod.so /usr/lib/libgpod.so.2; sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libgpod.so /usr/lib/; sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libgpod.so.2 /usr/lib/
[07:37] <nickrud> kravlin: ah, never messed with that.
[07:37] <jotil> but good luck with the installation anyways\
[07:37] <robc4> basically, I need a program to draw an ERD and then have it convert to sql code
[07:37] <riotkittie> sudo reboot
[07:37] <riotkittie> oops
[07:37] <mehevi> heheh
[07:37] <hhp2k> :p
[07:37] <nickrud> lol, in a terminal window in X? how gauche
[07:37] <kravlin> nickrud: i have to. My whole project for a class is on it. I need that project in a format other than whatever open movie editor keeps it in.
[07:38] <kao> I use Ubuntu 7.04 - can anyone direct me to a site where I can get some openOffice 2.2 assistance?
[07:38] <hhp2k> Does anyone here prefer to have their terminal embedded into their desktop? I love that.
[07:38] <kravlin> nickrud: still dies... oh well.
[07:38] <mehevi> hhp2k I would if I had an x window system right now
[07:38] <nickrud> kravlin: luck ;)
[07:38] <nikosapi> kao: you could try #openoffice.org
[07:38] <kao> 10nx nik
[07:38] <Scunizi> lgc_, strange my konquerer has the "scan" thing in the referanced place..
[07:39] <hhp2k> mehevi: What are you using?
[07:39] <nikosapi> kao: good luck though, it's pretty dead around there
[07:39] <nickrud> hhp2k: are you doing that in a nautilus desktop?
[07:39] <kravlin> nickrud: is there a sourceforge irc room?
[07:39] <mehevi> hhp2k ubuntu server install, bitchx on tty2
[07:39] <robc4> dia can only do chen notation
[07:39] <robc4> not crows foot
[07:39] <nickrud> kravlin: I'm not sure, you can search on ircsearch.com
[07:39] <hhp2k> nickrud: Yup
[07:39] <hhp2k> mehevi: I see :P
[07:40] <nickrud> hhp2k: and your technique, pretty please :)
[07:40] <stephans> nikosapi: ok I replaced the files.. let see if it works
[07:40] <ChupaChups> mehevi: what do people use shells for?
[07:40] <hhp2k> nickrud: :) Let me find it for you.
[07:40] <lgc_> Scunizi, what version do you have?
[07:40] <BootStrap> Hi all, I can't install Miro on Ubuntu 7.04, keep getting:  Depends: libxine1-plugins  but it is not installable. Has anyone here seen this?
[07:41] <mico> howdy
[07:41] <Scunizi> lgc_, the one for Dapper 6.06 & feisty.
[07:41] <nickrud> hhp2k: I usually have several open, but I can see the use for one central one that travels with me
[07:41] <mico> does anybody have a server ldap working in ubuntu ?
[07:41] <mehevi> ChupaChups lots of things.  proxy at work for web browsing, secure email, newsgroups, programming on a stable system.  a BBS
[07:42] <lgc_> Scunizi, I installed it on Feisty. It's version 3.5.6.
[07:42] <mohkohn> only 64d 19h till I bittorrent gutsy!
[07:42] <nickrud> ChupaChups: I keep a shell account for my imap mail store, I can access it from any machine anywhere
[07:42] <kravlin> nickrud: there is. Its completely 100 percent empty
[07:42] <jotil> BootStrap: are you following the guide on Miro website?
[07:42] <mico> i've been following every tutorials i fond in the net and none worked :s
[07:42] <mehevi> ChupaChups keep in mind that if you ssh in to your shell account it is very secure.  and offsite.  Its like a computer someone else maintains, then you just use it.  freeshell.org to plug it again.  it rocks and is really cheap for lots of access privs $1 us dollar
[07:42] <nickrud> kravlin: if you joined it, and you were the only one there, you just created it :)
[07:43] <Scunizi> lgc_, according to my system flashplugin-nonfree is the right package.. you might try rebooting to see if that activates it...
[07:43] <kravlin> nickrud: no. Its got its own topic and everything set before i got there....
[07:43] <nickrud> ah
[07:43] <BootStrap> Yes, jotil, I added the entry to the repository, then selected the package, but got that error, some kind of unresolvable dependency
[07:44] <acee1234> i cant play back mp3s in amarok xine is installed any ideas?
[07:44] <atosecond> is there anyway to detect what hd# a hdd is
[07:44] <hhp2k> nickrud: Here's what mine looks like, I'm really happy with it. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a219/HellhoundP5/Screenshot-1.png This is how it's done: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202249&highlight=terminal+desktop
[07:44] <atosecond> without knowing
[07:45] <atosecond> fdisk doesn't work
[07:45] <mehevi> atosecond try 'mount'
[07:45] <nickrud> hhp2k: thanks :)
[07:45] <hhp2k> nickrud: No problem.
[07:46] <nickrud> oh, devilspie, of course :)
[07:46] <mehevi> atosecond wait fdisk couldnt detect it?  you tried fdisk -l right?
[07:46] <acee1234> any ideas for the amarok issue?
[07:46] <Scunizi> atosecond, did you use fdisk -l
[07:46] <nikosapi> stephans: so is it working?
[07:46] <lgc_> Scunizi, I doubt it, since I installed it since the upgrade to Feisty. It works, but has a clumsy performance. It doesn't seem to integrate quite well with Firefox or Opera, not to mention Konqueror.
[07:47] <nickrud> whatever happened to the ugly xml of devilspie? That is actually readable
[07:47] <Scunizi> lgc_, why not use FF or opera?  why konquerer?
[07:47] <tanner> konqueror is the best
[07:48] <Scunizi> tanner, can you tell lgc_ how to make sure Flash is working in konqueror?
[07:48] <lgc_> Scunizi, as I say, Flash doesn't seem to integrate quite well into these browsers. That's why I wanted to try Konqueror.
[07:48] <spidey> i'm having problems getting a dell sound blaster live 5.1 working with 7.04, any suggestions as to how i can fix this problem?
[07:49] <tanner> Scunizi: probably not, im not on kde right now, best bet is to set the plugins path to the dir with flash, usually works or ask in #kubuntu
[07:49] <hhp2k> nickrud: yes :) It works famously.
[07:49] <Scunizi> spidey, you need to be more specific.. what's not working.. someone will pick up the thread.. I can't help here.
[07:49] <spidey> nearest i've gotten to actual sound is buzzing when i use the digital output jack
[07:49] <jotil> BootStrap: http://packages.debian.org/sid/libxine1-plugins
[07:49] <spidey> well, the emu10k1 module ingeneral =/
[07:49] <Scunizi> tanner, that's one of the problems #kubuntu hasn't been much help for lgc_ or myself..
[07:50] <tanner> Scunizi: google, #kde or #gentoo even
[07:50] <BootStrap> Thanks jotil, I'll review that
[07:51] <Segaw> If you have a problem with Firefox crashing on video sites like YouTube, try adding the line:
[07:51] <Segaw> export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1
[07:51] <Segaw> to /usr/bin/firefox in the variables section.
[07:51] <cyclonut> can anyone here help with randr configuration?
[07:51] <cyclonut> Ive tried grandr but it jsut crashes
[07:52] <stones> aaa
[07:53] <stephans> nikosapi: not yet...
[07:53] <stephans> nikosapi: hold on.. i am matching the guids...
[07:53] <Hilikus_> how do i tell tar where to untar a file?
[07:54] <nickrud> Segaw: I think system-prefs-screen resolution will do what you want
[07:54] <nikosapi> Hilikus_: tar xvf file.tar -C /other/dir
[07:54] <Hilikus_> -C
[07:54] <Hilikus_> ok
[07:55] <lgc_> Scunizi, I'm falling asleep on my keyboard. Thanks for your help and till later...:).
[07:55] <nickrud> Segaw: srry. cyclonut try system->prefs->screen resolution, that provides access to randr
[07:55] <princess^_> i hate pc
[07:56] <cyclonut> nickrud - aye, thanks for the tip but it doesnt do what I need, sadly
[07:56] <cyclonut> brb
[07:56] <Scunizi> lgc_, good luck.. I waz up till late late last night as well. one days sleep in two.. not good for a 47 yr old.
[07:56] <stephans> nikosapi: it did not work...
[07:56] <Hilikus_> nikosapi it still creates a dir, i just want it to dump its content in the specified dir, not create a dir in the specified dir and dump it there
[07:56] <shabutie> k, i just upgraded from an old ati card to a geforce 7600 gs, where do i begin to get x-windows to work?
[07:57] <SalsaDoom> Hi fellas. How do I specifiy parameters for a module, so that it uses them at boot time?
[07:57] <nikosapi> stephans: I've got to get to sleep, I would suggest you try gtkpod from svn, here's how to build it: svn co https://gtkpod.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gtkpod/gtkpod/trunk gtkpod-svn && sudo apt-get build-dep gtkpod && cd gtkpod-svn && ./autogen.sh && make && sudo make install
[07:57] <projectttt> is there anyway i can recover my old ext3 file system (with files) if it's recently been coverted to hsf+ file system?
[07:57] <nikosapi> Hilikus_: just do a 'mv' after it extracts...
[07:57] <stephans> nikosapi: ok cool thakyou.
[07:57] <Scunizi> projectttt, was the partition formatted?
[07:58] <nickrud> shabutie: in the console (you'll get dumped there when X doesn't work, or press alt-ctl-f1 if it doesn't) then login and type sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg. choose the nv driver
[07:58] <projectttt> scunizi: well it has to be, no?
[07:58] <Scunizi> projectttt, for-get-about-it! it's gone.
[07:58] <fatejudger> Rhythmbox doesn't seem to be reading the track listings on my wma files, is there any way to correct this?
[07:58] <projectttt> it was ext3 and now it's hsf+
[07:58] <nickrud> shabutie: then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart to get X to load
[07:59] <nickrud> projectttt: which means that all the indexing is gone
[07:59] <projectttt> Scunizi:  there is no way to bring the databack?
[08:00] <Scunizi> projectttt, once formatted.. unless you're a bit/byte recovery specialist....no.
[08:00] <projectttt> well, from a lot of what i've read you can recover a formatted drive..
[08:00] <Scunizi> projectttt, even then.. probably not much.
[08:00] <projectttt> i just can't find anything specific on hsf+ and ext3
[08:01] <kravlin> is there a way to Unmake a file?
[08:01] <nickrud> kravlin: make uninstall?
[08:01] <cyclonut> xrandr -q says my max screen width is 1440x1440. any clues on how to change that?
[08:04] <shabutie> thanks nick
[08:05] <nickrud> cyclonut: look at --newmode and --addmode on the xrandr man page ; checking that your horizontal & vertical syncs are correct in /var/log/Xorg.0.log will give you a hint of why you might need to
[08:05] <n08l3> i am trying to install the intel 3945 driver
[08:06] <AcE13> I want to destroy my root partion before installing gutsy (sudo rm -rf /)... but dont want to touch 2 perticular partions... So I just umount them right?
[08:06] <n08l3> and as per the docs i need to run a file called .load
[08:06] <nickrud> AcE13: yes
[08:06] <n08l3> but that gives me syntax error
[08:06] <cyclonut> nickrud: Thanks again
[08:06] <AcE13> nickrud: kewl
[08:06] <n08l3> let me pastebin that file
[08:07] <SalsaDoom> Does anyone know how to specify parameters to a module at boot time?
[08:07] <n08l3> could anyone can take a look
[08:07] <n08l3> http://pastebin.com/m67497e30
[08:08] <nickrud> SalsaDoom: you'd add a file to /etc/modules.d , using the syntax examples in other files there
[08:08] <SalsaDoom> nickrud: I see, the boot scripts check that directory for a file with the same name?
[08:08] <SalsaDoom> same name as the module in question, that is.
[08:09] <jotil> n08l3: intel 3945 should be auto detected
[08:09] <bullgard4> English help wanted: What is a 'backported' fix as in "a backported fix from 2.6.23"?
[08:09] <nickrud> SalsaDoom: no, it reads all the files there in alphanumeric order. The reason you'd use a new file is to keep the ubuntu provided ones pristine.
[08:09] <SalsaDoom> nickrud: ahhh, I see. Right-o, thanks :)
[08:09] <moparisthebest> is there any way to make VESA display at 1280x800 instead of the default 1024x768?
[08:09] <n08l3> jotil: it did auto detect it, but it was just been random, sometimes it just sits there not connecting the wireless and the wireless card light kept flashing like crazy
[08:10] <n08l3> but when it used to work yesterday the light was solid
[08:10] <nickrud> bullgard4: take code from a later release and apply it to an earlier one
[08:10] <n08l3> so i thought to rebuild the driver
[08:10] <CAT> hi all
[08:10] <CAT> any one here?
[08:10] <ehc> I am trying to setup dual monitors, with nVidia Geforce, if I want to use twinview is that a package I need to install?
[08:11] <jotil> n08l3: i don't think you need to rebuild the driver yet? maybe you can diagnose the problem first?
[08:11] <nickrud> about a 1000 lurkers
[08:11] <n08l3> I am following this tutorial http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140085&page=1
[08:11] <bullgard4> nickrud: So 'to take a later release and apply it to an earlier one' is equal to saying 'to backport'?
[08:11] <nickrud> bullgard4: cherrypicking the fixes you want
[08:11] <n08l3> jotil: my friend, i already did as per as the page,now all i need to do is to load it
[08:12] <n08l3> so basically i am right now without driver for my card
[08:12] <nickrud> bullgard4: your sentence, with my phrase applied. That's a backport fix :)
[08:12] <bullgard4> nickrud: Thank you for explaining.
[08:13] <jotil> n08l3: and you are using feisty?
[08:13] <n08l3> jotil:  I am using gutsy
[08:15] <jet65> Can anyone help me get rid of Xubuntu?
[08:15] <mohkohn> i wish I was using gutsy. It is going to take another 4h 5 minutes to torrent it here :(
[08:15] <jotil> oh man, i haven't used that yet. sorry. but i think you *need not* go through all this trouble. gutsy *must* support 3945.
[08:15] <mohkohn> jet65, sudo apt-get remove xubuntu
[08:16] <n08l3> jotil: i got it working right out of box, but occasionally it won't respond as it is supposed to
[08:16] <CAT> hello
[08:16] <CAT> i need some one to help me
[08:16] <jet65> i've done that...I can still boot it.
[08:16] <mohkohn> I mean xubuntu-desktop
[08:16] <n08l3> like it worked perfectly fine with live cd
[08:16] <jet65> Done it both ways
[08:16] <CAT> who can help me plz talk to me on privte
[08:16] <jet65> also tried purge
[08:16] <DerangedDingo> CAT: What is your problem?
[08:16] <n08l3> but didn't worked when i reboot after the installation
[08:16] <nickrud> CAT: you probably should ask the question here, no one can answer every question :)
[08:16] <n08l3> and then it worked again yesterday, and is retard again
[08:17] <mohkohn> It is probably just the splashscreen
[08:17] <CAT> any 1 can help me?
[08:17] <mbritley> whats your question?
[08:17] <nickrud> CAT: don't be shy, just spit it out
[08:17] <DerangedDingo> CAT: Ask your question so appropriate people can talk to you in private
[08:18] <CAT> i'm not shy man
[08:18] <jotil> lol
[08:18] <CAT> i'm looking for teacher
[08:18] <CAT> cause i want to get into linux world
[08:18] <CAT> so
[08:18] <CAT> i need some one who can be with me all the way long
[08:18] <br24> linux is stupid
[08:18] <CAT> to help me
[08:18] <jet65> Anymore advice? I double boot, but just can't get adjusted to Xubuntu or get ANYTHING to work right even after reading step-by-step guides, so I want to totally get rid of it.
[08:18] <Pumpitup> google seems to be a good teacher
[08:18] <Rob125> yeah, seriously. why would you use linux ;)
[08:19] <DerangedDingo> CAT: I will help you
[08:19] <robc4> the ubuntu guides are pretty good CAT
[08:19] <CAT> i want to try man
[08:19] <CAT> and give it chance
[08:19] <nickrud> googles ok if you know the questions to ask
[08:19] <CAT> why not to try
[08:19] <CAT> any one want to be my teacher?
[08:19] <robc4> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[08:20] <mohkohn> br24 I was told linux was for people with IQ's over 98
[08:20] <robc4> that is a good site to answer all the pesky questions once the initial basic questions are answered
[08:20] <jotil> CAT: only if you agree to pay in gold coins, apparently currencies go through devaluation
[08:20] <lflashl> hey there i just did a new install of ubuntu 7.04 but i can t use any screen res over 1024x768, i change my xorg.conf file but still cant do anything
[08:21] <SalsaDoom> jotil, Canadian looney's are gold coins... ;)
[08:21] <hhp2k> lflashl: Did you set your monitor's sync ranges?
[08:21] <nickrud> ah, not everyone understands the style here. They come round, once they've spent some time
[08:21] <Rob125> Canadian loonies are beautiful right now.
[08:21] <Athreya> G'day
[08:21] <lflashl> um dont think so, how would i do so
[08:22] <jotil> canadian money grew taller than USD recently
[08:22] <Athreya> i am a complete noob with ubuntu...i need help
[08:22] <mbritley> sorry about that, firewall issues...did anyone say anything about the graphics config file issue when updating?
[08:22] <projectttt> anyone here familiar with testdisk?
[08:22] <nickrud> Athreya: you've found the right place, ask your questions
[08:22] <jotil> Athreya: just ask
[08:22] <usser> one loonie for a toonie
[08:22] <SalsaDoom> Yup, back the way its supposed to be.
[08:22] <Athreya> Thank you
[08:22] <hhp2k> lflashl: When xorg.conf reconfigure asks you for your monitor type, select "Advanced" and enter the horizontal and vertical sync ranges of your monitor - find your monitor's manual online to find out what those values re, and enter them as 00-00
[08:22] <CAT> guys
[08:22] <CAT> i want to know what is the most good liunx version?
[08:22] <hhp2k> Ubuntu =D
[08:23] <hhp2k> But it depends on preference.
[08:23] <jotil> lol
[08:23] <CAT> why ubuntu?
[08:23] <SalsaDoom> Kubuntu.
[08:23] <heartsblood> slackware
[08:23] <SalsaDoom> Gnome is only good if your using novell servers. *nods*
[08:23] <mbritley> yeah, I've done that before....but it gets a little annoying when you have to re-configure every time you update Ubunutu
[08:23] <mohkohn> CAT how long is a piece of string?
[08:23] <UselessID> theres no better distro...
[08:23] <hhp2k> Otherwise, this conversation is for #ubuntu-offtopic.
[08:23] <jotil> CAT, since you are in primary school, try Edubuntu
[08:23] <nickrud> CAT: because it requires the least amount of configuration knowledge to get it usable
[08:23] <Athreya> sorry for the delayed reply...keyboard trouble
[08:24] <max_bizzle> mohkohn, twice the distance from the middle to one end
[08:24] <SalsaDoom> Anyway, thanks Nickrud, your advice worked just fine. :)
[08:24] <nickrud> SalsaDoom: yw
[08:24] <jet65> so does anyone know how to TOTALLY get rid of Xubuntu off of my computer to where I'm "stuck" with windows and it doesn't ask what I'd rather boot with.
[08:24] <CAT> guys
[08:24] <UselessID> the mos good distro is: the one you prefer :P
[08:24] <CAT> thats why i said i need teacher
[08:24] <CAT> cause if i ask in public
[08:24] <CAT> i'll get 100 openion
[08:24] <CAT> of every one
[08:24] <CAT> and that way i can focus or learn
[08:24] <CAT> i need one to docus with me
[08:24] <mohkohn> jet65, so you want to completely remove ubuntu?
[08:24] <hhp2k> !enter | CAT
[08:24] <ubotu> CAT: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:25] <nickrud> CAT: you asked a question that only has opinion, not fact
[08:25] <jet65> mohkohn: yes...I just can't get it to work right
[08:25] <CAT> ok
[08:25] <DerangedDingo> CAT: Register with the nickserv(that's how you do it, right?) and I'll talk to you
[08:25] <Athreya> ok...so here it is. I installed Ubuntu because i like the way it works...it's brilliant. I have trouble with user permissions to partitions...i messed up somewhere...I can get into the drive...cant paste data in it
[08:25] <CAT> i want linuks that can run games
[08:25] <localgod13> anyone run a nvidai geforce mx 400
[08:26] <nickrud> Athreya: what type of partition, ntfs maybe?
[08:26] <DerangedDingo> CAT: All modern Linux distro's can run games, if the games were written for Linux. Sabayon has quite a few preinstalled, though
[08:26] <max_bizzle> right, so asking what the "most good" gnu/linux distro in an irc room dedicated to one particular flavour is a good way way to get ideas
[08:26] <Athreya> hold on..forgot
[08:26] <Athreya> checking...
[08:26] <CAT> no i want it run exe games
[08:27] <usser> CAT: all linux distro can run some of windows games
[08:27] <mohkohn> jet65 I guess you want to recover the hd space as well?
[08:27] <UselessID> CAT: its not a very good idea
[08:27] <CAT> why?
[08:27] <MattG> any place to get mods for the "explorer" so i can see more details of a file?
[08:27] <Pumpitup> im starting to think that this is  a joke....
[08:27] <CAT> guys
[08:27] <jet65> mohkohn: yes
[08:27] <CAT> cant u talk to me in privte plz
[08:27] <Athreya> am not able to get it...i goto drive properties, it doesnt say what format...just the media name
[08:27] <mohkohn> To fix the master boot record: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/bootcons_fixmbr.mspx
[08:27] <CAT> why u insest to talk in here?
[08:27] <CAT> ther's alot of words
[08:27] <UselessID> CAT: you will have to emulate a windows... and it decreases performance, deeply
[08:28] <CAT> and it take me time to find the talk to me
[08:28] <nickrud> Athreya: was it a windows partition (that's ntfs)
[08:28] <jotil> CAT: what irc client are you using? make it highlight lines
[08:28] <mohkohn> You should be able to use the live cd and gparted to resize your windows partitions
[08:28] <CAT> caaaaaaaaaaaaaan annnnnnnnnnnny oneeeeeeeeee taaaaaalk innnn privte
[08:28] <jotil> that contains your nick
[08:28] <Athreya> it used to be...i formatted & partitioned this post installing Ubuntu
[08:28] <nickrud> Athreya: ah, ok. Where did you mount it?
[08:29] <Athreya> someone give him a scratch post
[08:29] <Athreya> nickrud: sda5
[08:29] <DerangedDingo> Can someone explain how to register with Nickserv to CAT so I can talk to him in private? I already did but I forget how I did it
[08:29] <nickrud> Athreya: no, that's the partition device. When you navigate to it in the file manager, what's the directory?
[08:29] <UselessID> /nickserv register password ?
[08:29] <nickrud> !register | CAT
[08:29] <ubotu> CAT: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[08:30] <CAT> can any 1 talk in privte?
[08:30] <Pumpitup> omg....
[08:30] <CAT> can any 1 talk in privte?
[08:30] <Athreya> nickrud: /media/sda5
[08:30] <CAT> can any 1 talk in privte?
[08:30] <DerangedDingo> CAT: Read the link, and then i'll talk to you in private.
[08:30] <nickrud> Athreya: ok, you want to use that as a storage disk, right?
[08:30] <Athreya> yes sir
[08:30] <UselessID> good idea
[08:31] <CAT> can any 1 talk in privte?
[08:31] <UselessID> no.
[08:31] <steve> anyone have any experience getting gnomad to work?
[08:31] <nickrud> Athreya: if so, do    sudo chown <usrname>:<username> /media/sda5
[08:31] <UselessID> can you shut up?
[08:31] <jotil> omg...
[08:31] <CAT> can any 1 talk in privte?
[08:31] <Pumpitup> this is getting lame..
[08:31] <UselessID> so...
[08:31] <Athreya> username would be my profile login name?
[08:31] <CAT> can any 1 talk in privte?
[08:31] <nickrud> CAT: untill you register, no one can, it's the way this irc stuff works on this server
[08:32] <jotil> Athreya: yes,the loginID
[08:32] <nickrud> !register | CAT
[08:32] <UselessID> i guess hes trolling :)
[08:32] <ubotu> CAT: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[08:32] <Zambezi> Is it possible to see which added user I have?
[08:32] <Athreya> k hold up nickrud. checking it out
[08:32] <jet65> mohkohn: will that get rid of the boot screen and (effectively) Xubuntu?
[08:32] <UselessID> dont you ppl think the same?
[08:32] <Athreya> erm...not able to load root
[08:32] <nickrud> no, just really early on the learning curve
[08:32] <Athreya> terminal i.e
[08:33] <GreySim> Is there a way to hide file extensions in Nautilus in Feisty or Gutsy? I think I remember it used to do that by default and I always turned it off, but now I can't find the option anywhere. Now that I want it back on, of course. :)
[08:33] <nickrud> Athreya: any terminal will do, that's what sudo is for
[08:33] <mohkohn> jet65, the restore master boot record will do that. But you want to use your hard disk space. Vista or XP
[08:33] <mohkohn> ?
[08:33] <Ashfire908> is there a way to check if a ppp interface is up but wvdial/pppd is not running?
[08:33] <br24> trs
[08:33] <nickrud> GreySim: never ever heard of that one
[08:33] <Athreya> nickrud : error "no such file or directory"
[08:34] <jet65> mohkohn: worse, ME
[08:34] <d1n0> Is there anyone who think I can get DualScreens (NOT with clone, Only Extended desktop) to work with ATI Radeon HD2400 on either Ubuntu, Xubuntu 7.04, 7.10?
[08:34] <CAT> ok guys
[08:34] <projectttt> anyone here use testdisk?
[08:34] <CAT> ii'll regestir my name to Basem
[08:34] <Zambezi> Common? I think I got hacked and have user added I'm not aware of. There got to be a way to show added users?
[08:34] <CAT> one second and i come back
[08:34] <nickrud> Athreya: mistype, either you or me:    sudo chmod <you>:<you> /media/sda5
[08:34] <Athreya> nickrud: please bear with me. I am learning...
[08:34] <Athreya> aaah...i wrote chown
[08:34] <Athreya> :P
[08:34] <nickrud> Athreya: chown, you were right :)
[08:35] <nickrud> Athreya: I always mistype those two for some reason
[08:35] <Athreya> hehe
[08:35] <jotil> hehe
[08:35] <Athreya> same error mate
[08:35] <mohkohn> If you have partition magic you can resize your partitions. But for free you can use the ubuntu or knoppix live cd's open a shell and type "sudo gparted"
[08:35] <Rob125> d1n0: It has extend screen properties... I don't know if it'd work on your graphics card.
[08:36] <J-_> mohkohn: there's a gparted live disc as well.
[08:36] <Athreya> mohkohn: gparted doesnt open up .  very wierd...
[08:36] <GreySim> In the Ubuntu Live CDs it's actually in the menus too.
[08:36] <jotil> Athreya: try: du
[08:36] <jotil> see the output
[08:36] <GreySim> System -> Administration -> GNOME Partiton Editor, I believe.
[08:36] <jotil> i mean df
[08:36] <mohkohn> You can delete the linux partition then resize your windows partions. jet65
[08:36] <jotil> sorry
[08:37] <mohkohn> J- I am assuming jet65 has an ubuntu cd
[08:37] <Athreya> nickrud: where do i type that
[08:37] <jet65> mohkohn: how do I delete the linux partition? and yes I do have the CD
[08:37] <nickrud> Athreya: in applications->accessories->Terminal , the window that opens
[08:37] <quik_> to add a user to a group, find the group entry in /etc/group and write ,username after the previous user, rightt?
[08:37] <heartsblood> is there a limit to the number or the type of services I can run through inet efficiently?
[08:37] <Athreya> k
[08:38] <Athreya> just :du ?
[08:38] <jotil> df
[08:38] <mohkohn> When you boot into the live cd you open the shell and type "sudo gparted"
[08:38] <projectttt> if i boot from a live cd.  and my drive is hfs+. will i still see a "file system" under places? or will i not?
[08:38] <GreySim> Athreya: Instead of 'df' you could also do 'df -h' to get the info in gigabytes if you prefer.
[08:38] <adante> hi, i have the ubuntu 7.04 desktop cd - would i be able to use it to boot up a comp, and access some files on a hdd formatted via reiser, copy them to a usb mass storage device, WITHOUT having to install stuff (its a windows computer, no linux install)
[08:38] <mohkohn> after that it is like partition magic. Graphical.
[08:39] <Athreya> getting info is cool GreySim. it's the RW permissions that's the problem
[08:39] <mohkohn> The instructions from Microsoft will restore your master boot record
[08:39] <jotil> Athreya: do you know the exact path of the drive now?
[08:40] <Rob125> adante: I'd imagine it'd be possible, though I know nothing about reiserfs...
[08:40] <Athreya> /media/sda5
[08:40] <Basem> hi i back agin
[08:40] <Basem> is me cat
[08:40] <Athreya> i've got two more drives like that...same problem
[08:40] <mohkohn> Still after giving you this advice jet65 I still reckon you should give it a bit more time in ubuntu
[08:40] <Basem> try to privte tlak now guys
[08:40] <E-mu> What command do I execute to get an Audio Card Codec Dump?
[08:40] <E-mu> Audio card chipset Codec
[08:41] <E-mu> From the LiveCD
[08:41] <jotil> Athreya: what is the filesystem? NTFS? EXT3?
[08:41] <Athreya> plus...three more drives that i need to recover. Not able to mount them at all...i kinda created new partition on data, crashed it & recovered. still not able to access them though...
[08:42] <Athreya> ext3
[08:42] <jotil> Athreya:  ls -al /media/sda5
[08:43] <jotil> what are the permissions?
[08:43] <mohkohn> jet65, http://digg.com/linux_unix/Howto_remove_Linux._A_guide_from_Microsoft
[08:43] <mohkohn> google is your friend
[08:43] <Athreya> for user, it says root...folder access its create and write files. all greyed out though
[08:44] <E-mu> What command do I execute from the Ubuntu LiveCD to get an Audio cards chipset COdec and dump it to a text file or equivalent PLEASE!!
[08:45] <fer> hi, I cannot suspend to ram on a toshiba a100-999 with a Nvidia Geforce go 7300. any suggestions?
[08:45] <jotil> Athreya: could just you paste the line for . over here?
[08:45] <Athreya> nickrud & jotil : would any changes to the settings in the drive properties help sort this out?
[08:46] <Athreya> jotil: which line? am as noob as it gets
[08:46] <magnetron> E-mu: the ' lshw ' command or ' lspci ' command might help you
[08:46] <tsukasa> hey are there any fixes or workarounds for frames tearing while playing video in compiz?
[08:46] <jotil> Athreya: the output for: ls -al /media/sda5
[08:47] <rawwar> hi
[08:47] <rawwar> i am back
[08:47] <jotil> the first line after: total x
[08:47] <nickrud> Athreya: I'm only sort of here, I'm glad jotil took over. Just follow him :)
[08:47] <E-mu> lshw no such command but lspci just gives information about Device ID manufacturer chipset and PCI bus and hex codes etc but nothing about the AUdio COdec
[08:47] <E-mu> Codecs
[08:47] <Athreya> =) thanks nickrud.
[08:47] <chalcedony> i broke xsane, i can't get it to come into focus, does anyone know what it's called to kill it?
[08:47] <Athreya> jotil: drwxr-xr-x  3 root root  4096 2007-10-12 05:56 .
[08:47] <usser> tsukasa: i think thats what video playback plugin for
[08:47] <usser> tsukasa: also enable workarounds plugin
[08:47] <tsukasa> usser, its enabled but still tearing
[08:47] <tsukasa> enabled as well
[08:47] <magnetron> E-mu: are you using a regular ubuntu or a text-mode one?
[08:48] <jotil> yeah seems like you don't have write permission
[08:48] <E-mu> regular Live CD with Gui
[08:48] <magnetron> E-mu: and you get no sound?
[08:48] <usser> tsukasa: thats all i knew sorry
[08:48] <localgod13> gparted has its own live cd
[08:48] <magnetron> E-mu: but the sound card works?
[08:48] <jotil> try this command: sudo chmod 777 /media/sda5
[08:48] <Athreya> how do i go about changing that? because i'm trying to recover data from another three drives...i've run out of space
[08:48] <Athreya> ok...trying it now
[08:48] <E-mu> magnetron, Its the new Realtek ALC 888S not just 888 and I am trying to figure out how to get the Aduio Codecs list in a file
[08:49] <magnetron> E-mu: can you play any sound at all with the sound card?
[08:49] <Rich4> Hello--I'm installing ubuntu v7.04. What should I use for a Mount Point as a beginner?
[08:49] <E-mu> Ubuntu does not support the 888S so I have to have a driver running the sound card before I can get the codecs?
[08:49] <Athreya> jotil: it asked me for a password
[08:49] <Rob125> Rich4: You'll need a mount point of '/' without the quotes.
[08:49] <Athreya> after which it returned to the cursor
[08:50] <Rob125> That's the root file system, your equivalent to 'C:'
[08:50] <magnetron> E-mu: are you sure there is no driver in ubuntu for it?
[08:50] <jotil> Athreya: did you give the password for the default user?
[08:50] <Rich4> Rob: What for  a 'use as' ?
[08:50] <freetos>  #ardour
[08:50] <E-mu> not for the 888S but I will give it another shot
[08:50] <Athreya> jotil: yes i did
[08:50] <E-mu> is there a command to get the file dump on the audio card
[08:51] <Rob125> Rich4: Does it give you an example of choices?
[08:51] <bullgard4> Who is currently using a laptop computer and could please paste his /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info output to a no-paste service? (http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/16133/)
[08:51] <E-mu> not lspci either
[08:51] <E-mu> cat ./proc/asound something?
[08:51] <jotil> Athreya: now give the output of the first line again
[08:51] <Rich4> Yes.
[08:51] <magnetron> E-mu: If there is a driver available, it will be installed at the same time as ubuntu
[08:51] <Rich4> Rob: Yes
[08:51] <jotil> ls -al /media/sda5
[08:51] <Rob125> Rich4: Please list some -- my memory isn't that great; I can't remember the liveCD install by heart ;)
[08:52] <rawwar> okay well i have installed ubuntu but for some reason it is not showing up as bootable
[08:52] <Athreya> drwxrwxrwx  3 root root  4096 2007-10-12 05:56 .
[08:52] <jotil> ok, now you will be able to read and write
[08:52] <jotil> and execute
[08:52] <jotil> :P
[08:52] <E-mu> magnetron, once that is complete then how can I get a complete comprehensice file dunp on the audio card what is the command?
[08:52] <tsukasa> usser, i got it, you have to enable "sync to vblank" in ccsm general prefs
[08:52] <Rich4> Rob: ext3, ext2, reiserfs, jfs
[08:52] <E-mu> Other people have done it and posted the Codec dump and I liek to know how they did it?
[08:53] <usser> tsukasa: great :)
[08:53] <Athreya> jotil: still unable to paste =(
[08:53] <Rob125> Rich4: Oh. you want to have the larger part of it ext3, and a smaller part (usually no more than double your physical memory) as 'swap'
[08:53] <Rich4> rob: xfs, fat16 fat32, swap, efi, don't use
[08:53] <magnetron> E-mu: you are confusing the driver with the codec. use the lspci command to find the sound card
[08:53] <Rob125> Rich4: So, if you have a 20gb area you're converting, and have 512mb RAM, make about 19gb ext3, mounted as '/', and about 1gb swap.
[08:53] <xipietotec> bullgard4, http://rafb.net/p/udiinY10.html
[08:54] <jotil> Athreya: where are you pasting again?
[08:54] <CH1P> How to update kernel without internet?
[08:54] <Rich4> rob: excuse me? 'parts' ? two partitions for linux?
[08:54] <jotil> in the root of the folder?
[08:54] <Athreya> in the sda5 drive
[08:54] <Athreya> i guess
[08:54] <jotil> wierd
[08:54] <bullgard4> xipietotec: Thank you very much.
[08:54] <jotil> weird*
[08:54] <Athreya> i know
[08:54] <Rob125> Rich4: Yes. swap is like a windows pagefile -- essentially, it's just an area that your computer uses for extended memory.
[08:54] <E-mu> no actually I don't understand how someone can post an entire page on the sound card from what they call a Codec Dump
[08:54] <E-mu> I wihs I knew the command?
[08:54] <xipietotec> de nada bullgard4 =)
[08:55] <jotil> because you or anyone should have full read/write/execute permission
[08:55] <magnetron> E-mu: if you show me the page, i might work it out
[08:55] <Athreya> the last time i installed...it worked fine.
[08:55] <E-mu> ok pastebin
[08:55] <E-mu> sec
[08:55] <Athreya> i had to install windows for my parents...
[08:55] <usser> Athreya: where your sda5 mounted?
[08:55] <Athreya> /media/sda5
[08:56] <usser> Athreya: sudo chown <yourusername:yourusername> -R /media/sda5
[08:56] <Basem> hello
[08:56] <Basem> any 1 there
[08:56] <pbx> I'm trying to understand how grub config works and am curious about the commented-but-seemingly-significant lines in /boot/grub/menu.lst. Is it just the update-grub command that looks for these? And if so what exactly does it do with them -- update the menu.lst file or something more?
[08:56] <Rich4> rob: How do I go about setting it up? Do I need to create two partitions for linux?
[08:56] <usser> Basem: where?
[08:56] <Rob125> Rich4: Are you keeping windows on your machine, or are you doing an install to an empty HD?
[08:57] <Athreya> usser: no such file or directory
[08:57] <mattzda> how do i install beryl on ubuntu??
[08:57] <rawwar> arg i had that converstaion backwards lol
[08:57] <Rich4> rob: I have windows on a larger partition; linux has some 20-30 GB to work with
[08:57] <localgod13> mattzda
[08:57] <rawwar> rich 4 is the one needing help
[08:57] <localgod13> mattzda: very carefully
[08:57] <mattzda> ya?
[08:57] <Alamue> If anyone has some experience with Wubi and RAID 0 arrays please pm me.
[08:57] <usser> Athreya: wha? but u said its mounted there?
[08:58] <Rob125> Rich4: Ahh. Easiest way to do it, then, is to make a primary partition with the linux space, and then do logicals for the smaller ones (or so I've found).
[08:58] <Athreya> just tried this out with jotil...should i just reinstall? but i wouldnt feel much satisfaction if i didnt resolve this...
[08:58] <darkchr0n0s> hello, i have set $http_proxy varialble in some startup script, and i forgot which, how can i find out where the echo$http_proxy takes it's input from ?
[08:58] <Athreya> usser: that is exactly what is wierd
[08:58] <localgod13> mattzda: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-beryl-with-latest-nvidia-drivers-in-ubuntu-feisty-fawn.html
[08:58] <XsteelWolf> Does anyone have a video tutorial whatsoever that would enable a first timer setup on clustering?
[08:58] <localgod13> worked for me
[08:58] <magnetron> Alamue: avoid using wubi if possible
[08:58] <rawwar> i have become very familiar with the install process but so far i have not had a successful boot off my hard drive
[08:58] <usser> Athreya: paste your ls /media
[08:58] <pbx> darkchr0n0s, grep -R "http_proxy" /etc
[08:58] <jotil> usser: that's very perplexing, we chmod the /media/sda5 to 777
[08:58] <Rich4> rob: logicals? :S
[08:58] <Rob125> Rich4: Really, it doesn't matter how you do it, so long as you've got a big ext3 as / in the end and a small swap.
[08:58] <Athreya> cdrom  cdrom0  disk  floppy  floppy0  hda1  hda2  hda3  sda1  sda5
[08:59] <Rob125> Rich4: Logical partitions, sorry.
[08:59] <E-mu> magnetron, http://rafb.net/p/wgCpm566.html
[08:59] <usser> bah wth?
[08:59] <Alamue> If anyone has any ideas on how I can install ubuntu onto a laptop with no CD-Rom drive or floppy please pm me (it does not boot to USB)
[08:59] <mattzda> i dont know where to find resourses
[08:59] <Athreya> And...if i go to file manager...it just displays hda1 & sda5...with locks on them
[08:59] <CH1P> How to update kernel without internet?
[08:59] <Rich4> rob: partition for swap can be 3-5 GB?
[08:59] <jotil> usser: Athreya's problem totally got me
[08:59] <E-mu> magnetron, take a look at that codec dump and please tell me what command they used to dump that to a text file
[08:59] <E-mu> this is fricken killing me
[09:00] <usser> Athreya: did u try mounting it somewhere else
[09:00] <Rob125> Rich: That's too big. Double your memory size is the right size, pretty much.
[09:00] <Athreya> how do i do that?
[09:00] <E-mu> magnetron, lspci did nto print that out did it?
[09:00] <usser> Athreya: sudo mkdir /somemountpoint
[09:00] <usser> Athreya: sudo umount /dev/sda5
[09:00] <Rob125> Rich4: If you're like me (which you won't be) you'll have 384mb of memory, so mine was about 750mb.
[09:00] <usser> Athreya: sudo mount /dev/sda5 /somemountpoin
[09:00] <liberum> Anyone know how to give write access to a truecrypt volume? -u switch doesn't do it for me
[09:01] <E-mu> magnetron, btw thats for an ALC 888 not and ALC 888S
[09:01] <Rich4> rob: What hd space does linux take to install? would 1024mb be sufficient ?
[09:01] <lflashl> can anyone help me i cant get my screen above 640x320, i think it has something to do with my sync settings
[09:01] <Rich4> rob: ok. thanks
[09:01] <Athreya> mount point does not exist
[09:01] <E-mu> magnetron, that file was generated from an Ubuntu Live CD
[09:01] <Rob125> Rich4: For linux, you need at least 4gb to install the filesystem on.
[09:01] <Athreya> i tried giving it a name as well as sda4
[09:01] <magnetron> E-mu: first of all, are you sure this will help you? you cannot do this "codec dump" until you get a working driver for your card.
[09:01] <Rob125> Rich4: But better to have more for space for files and whatnot.
[09:02] <Athreya> both seperate ofcourse
[09:02] <jotil> Athreya: naming is handled by the system itself
[09:02] <Rob125> rich4: The filesystem goes on the ext3 (the bigger part)
[09:02] <usser> Athreya: what was your exact commands
[09:02] <Athreya> sudo mount /dev/sda5 /somemountpoin
[09:02] <zoidberg_> does anyone know how i can play .wsx video files that a website uses?
[09:02] <rawwar> Okay is anyone free that can help me with my problem?
[09:02] <zoidberg_> vlc wont play them
[09:02] <jotil> hda means IDE disk and sda means SATA disk, afaik
[09:03] <usser> Athreya: sudo mount /dev/sda5 /somemountpoint
[09:03] <jotil> you missed the t
[09:03] <usser> sorry
[09:03] <usser> i missed it actually
[09:03] <Athreya> jotil : thanks...was wondering what it was
[09:03] <mattzda> where do i find source lists??
[09:03] <Athreya> usser: trying it out...and no worries =)
[09:03] <Rich4> rob: so I install ubuntu on two partitions; one partition of 1024mb, and the other, for example, 25gb?
[09:03] <usser> Athreya: its not gonna let u write to it
[09:03] <Athreya> mount: mount point /somemountpoint does not exist
[09:03] <pbx> No clues for me on what the fake-comments in /boot/grub/menu.lst are about?
[09:03] <E-mu> magnetron, Ok in theroy once the driver is installed and the card is working how do I get this COdec Dump PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[09:03] <E-mu> :P
[09:04] <riotkittie> oye. i am so confused.
[09:04] <Athreya> dang !!!
[09:04] <mattzda> where do i find source lists
[09:04] <Rob125> Rich4: Exactly. Set the mount point of the 25gb as '/' formatted as ext3, and set the 1024mb as 'swap'.
[09:04] <magnetron> E-mu: i'm working on it, calm down please. i will tell you when i know
[09:04] <pbx> More exclamation points please.
[09:04] <E-mu> ok
[09:04] <XsteelWolf> 7.10 countdown 4 days is the official date i suppose?
[09:04] <usser> Athreya: do me=`whoami`
[09:04] <riotkittie> err is it okay for logical partitions to overlap extended partitions? <hides in the 'hi, i'm stupid!' corner>
[09:04] <CH1P> How to Update my Kernel without Internet Connection and i am new to ubuntu please help, Current version: 2.6.20

[09:05] <usser> Athreya: sudo chown -R $me:$me /somemountpoint
[09:05] <usser> sorry
[09:05] <usser> the last one
[09:05] <Rich4> rob: thank you. and would you suggest a program as 'wine' for running windows prog?
[09:05] <Athreya> whoami doesnt respond...as in no response
[09:05] <riotkittie> CH1P: updating your kernel without any internet connection is sorta kinda a no go.  :o
[09:05] <anolis> I was wondering how hard it would be to "apt-get dist-upgrade" my way to 7.10 from 7.04, i imagine i have to edit the apt-get sources list and add the 7.10 repo and remove the 7.04, would this solution be flawed?
[09:05] <Rob125> Rich4: Wine is absolutely brilliant. I would most highly recommend it.
[09:05] <Rob125> anolis: there should be a simpler route than that
[09:06] <blmts> hi
[09:06] <usser> Athreya: arrg do u know your username?
[09:06] <Athreya> lol that ways
[09:06] <Athreya> yes i do...my bad
[09:06] <jotil> Athreya: just type - whoami
[09:06] <Rich4> rob: thanks again.
[09:06] <rawwar> any one please please help me
[09:06] <rob> Rich4, I am not Rob125
[09:06] <blmts> im having probs with trash in ubuntu
[09:06] <E-mu> magnetron, I am going to boot up 1 more time the latest Ubuntu and see if my audio is working then try lspci in the mean if you can find out how one can achieve getting this codec dump from a certain command(s) please inform me
[09:06] <anolis> does anyone know of one? i basically want to mirror the current distro onto my computer, however leaving all of my personal files intact
[09:06] <E-mu> brb
[09:06] <Rob125> Oh, hey Rob. You're the guy who I always try to identify as.
[09:06] <magnetron> E-mu: ok, i found it. wait
[09:07] <anolis> blats, don't litter so much
[09:07] <rob> Rob I've been using this for a long time :)

[09:07] <jotil> huh?
[09:07] <magnetron> E-mu: the info you want is stored in a temporary file in /proc/asound/card0/ directory. look for the name "codec something"
[09:07] <usser> Athreya: heh
[09:07] <rawwar> can anyone help me?
[09:07] <Athreya> sudo chown -R $ajay:$ajay /somemountpoint
[09:07] <anolis> blats, can you give us more information about the type of problem you are having?
[09:07] <Athreya> i know i messed up somewhere
[09:08] <usser> Athreya: without $
[09:08] <Athreya> ajay is my login name
[09:08] <rob> hi chalcedony :)
[09:08] <Athreya> ok
[09:08] <Rob125> Anyone know the flag for apt-get dist-upgrade that lets you upgrade to gutsy?
[09:08] <magnetron> E-mu: the file will ONLY be there if you have a working driver installed
[09:08] <Rich4> rob: is there a method by which I can reformat/partition via linux?
[09:08] <magnetron> !gutsy | Rob125
[09:08] <ubotu> Rob125: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 18th, 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[09:08] <Athreya> chown: cannot access `/somemountpoint': No such file or directory
[09:08] <usser> omg wtf
[09:08] <Athreya> lol
[09:08] <Rob125> magnetron: Thanks, running it. It's beautiful. I was asking about apt-get dist-upgrade, not specifically gutsy.
[09:08] <Athreya> i know
[09:09] <usser> Athreya: ls -al /somemountpoint
[09:09] <blmts>  theres folders like "hal" and "cups and "pppconfig" in my trash and i dont know how they got there
[09:09] <Athreya> ls: /somemountpoint: No such file or directory
[09:09] <zoidberg_> does anyone know how i can play .wsx video files that a website uses?
[09:09] <rawwar> ummm.... if no one can help me is there another channel i can get help on?
[09:09] <chalcedony> blmts: cups is a print thing?
[09:10] <riotkittie> hal? cups? pppconfig? in your trash? *hal* *cups* *pppconfig* ?  >_>
[09:10] <chalcedony> rawwar: depends on the problem
[09:10] <riotkittie> the mind, it boggles.
[09:10] <Rob125> rawwar: we can't answer your problem unless you ask your question first :)
[09:10] <askvictor> Where can I set modules to unload before going into ACPI suspend?
[09:10] <pbx> anolis, I did that upgrade, and it worked fine, but I only did it once so who knows if I was just lucky :)
[09:10] <usser> Athreya: ls -al / pastebin it
[09:10] <jotil> rofl
[09:10] <Odo> hi folks
[09:11] <Athreya> huh
[09:11] <rawwar> AND IT IS DRIVING ME NUTS!
[09:11] <hhp21> riotkittie: I'm guessing you're a regular here, being so cynical. :P
[09:11] <chalcedony> failed to open device `hpaio:/net/officejet_7200_series?ip=(deleted)': Device busy.. HELP?
[09:11] <anolis> well do you know where i can get the sources list?
[09:11] <pbx> rawwar, have you even asked your question yet?
[09:11] <anolis> and will it add new functionality, or just update pre-existing packages
[09:11] <hhp21> That's what I'm wondering..
[09:11] <rawwar> i asked it earlier
[09:11] <blmts> i look at the properties of one of the folders and the location says /var/run
[09:11] <hhp21> Ask again?
[09:11] <hhp21> It's a fast-moving chat room.
[09:11] <pbx> anolis, this is a very busy channel.
[09:11] <rawwar> i cant get ubuntu to boot from hard drive
[09:12] <anolis> yes, pbx i am aware
[09:12] <rawwar> tried several things
[09:12] <chalcedony> rawwar: what errors do you get?
[09:12] <hhp21> .. Well that's not common. :P little more detail?
[09:12] <Athreya> i did ls -al
[09:12] <pbx> anolis, I don't have the URL handy but I found it via googling.
[09:12] <cyclonut> hallo all, xrandr treates my VGA output as the primary monitor when something is hooked up to it. Does anyone know a way to make xrandr treat my laptop screen (LVDS) as the primary?
[09:12] <darkchr0n0s> rawwar : i think they need more information
[09:12] <Odo> anyone could help please, when i use the "iwpriv set command" i get "invalid command set" i think i need to blacklist a mod, or load a mod, for my wireless pcmcia card ralink
[09:12] <usser> Athreya: i dont understand your directories disappear or what, where did u mounted?
[09:12] <Athreya> it got me a whole lot of text
[09:12] <rawwar> okay well first i tried loading it from the live version
[09:12] <Athreya> ok...let me explain
[09:12] <pbx> anolis, my point about the busy channel was that you should address people by nick.
[09:12] <darkchr0n0s> Athreya : it will get you lots of text
[09:12] <darkchr0n0s> Athreya : its normal
[09:12] <Rob125> anolis: I don't think you should need to change your sources.list.
[09:12] <rawwar> when i boot it just sits there with a flashing cursor
[09:13] <jotil> lol usser
[09:13] <rawwar> then i did the text based installer
[09:13] <usser> jotil: heh
[09:13] <Athreya> i installed ubutu...formatted and partitioned a hdd...now am not able to access them
[09:13] <Athreya> ext3
[09:13] <Rich4> is there a method by which I can reformat/partition via linux?
[09:13] <rawwar> and added the booting agent forget what it is called
[09:13] <chalcedony> I was trying to use Xsane for scanning (8 x 10 1/2" paper, I poked the preview page.. and then it woudn't focus. I killed Xsane but now i have this error:  failed to open device `hpaio:/net/officejet_7200_series?ip=(deleted)': Device busy.. HELP?
[09:13] <rawwar> when i used that i get error 15
[09:13] <darkchr0n0s> Rich4 : man fdisk
[09:13] <Rob125> Rich4: Yes. gparted works great for it.
[09:13] <rawwar> file not found
[09:13] <Athreya> darkchr0n0s: thanks...wasnt worried about it, was just wondering which line would give me more info...
[09:13] <usser> Athreya: who are they?
[09:14] <jotil> rawwar: grub
[09:14] <Athreya> the partitions
[09:14] <rawwar> yeah thats it
[09:14] <Athreya> sorry...
[09:14] <jotil> error 15 means file not found
[09:14] <usser> Athreya: but ubuntu boot up>
[09:14] <rawwar> yeah i got that
[09:14] <usser> ?
[09:14] <anolis> ahhah i found something, this may be useful to anyone else thinking of upgrading to 7.10 from the internet http://www.debianadmin.com/upgrade-ubuntu-dapper-to-ubuntu-edgy-eft.html
[09:14] <Rich4> rob: do I use these programs while in linux? or must I operate them from another OS or otherwise?
[09:14] <pbx> chalcedony, does the problem persist if you log out and back in?
[09:14] <rawwar> problem is the file is there
[09:14] <Athreya> yes it does...no sweat at all
[09:14] <rawwar> i think it may be looking for it on the wrong drive
[09:14] <usser> Athreya: what partitions u cant access then?
[09:14] <Athreya> i can see my partitions...go into the folder...
[09:15] <Athreya> not able to copy or paste
[09:15] <Athreya> no write permissions...
[09:15] <usser> Athreya: ok
[09:15] <rawwar> because for some reason it keeps trying to write the grub booter to my first IDE drive
[09:15] <Rob125> aha. anolis: press alt+f2, and type 'gksu "update-manager -c"' less the single quotes
[09:15] <usser> Athreya: i see
[09:15] <Athreya> jotil helped me out with the 777 thing
[09:15] <chalcedony> pbx: log out and back in to where?
[09:15] <rawwar> instead of the SATA drive i have it installed on
[09:15] <Rob125> Rich4: You can do it inside of linux and the liveCD.
[09:15] <usser> Athreya: did 777 thing work?
[09:15] <Athreya> the terminal shows i got write access...but when i try it i dont
[09:15] <Rob125> Rich4: however, the default installer has a partitioner by default.
[09:15] <pbx> chalcedony, to your account. your session.
[09:15] <rawwar> so i tried writing the grub program to the SATA drive and tried to boot
[09:15] <RoboticTao> I just upgraded to gusty and my lightscribe continuously reads now. If I push eject on the drive it will open then immediately close. also I am getting a device mapper: table: some other info then lookup failed. I think it is a kernel error. Any ideas?
[09:16] <pbx> RoboticTao, wrong channel.
[09:16] <jotil> rawwar: can you go to the grub command prompt?
[09:16] <rawwar> using the recover install from the text based version of the installer
[09:16] <anolis> this isn't going to work until the 199999999999999999999999999999999999999999999998th Rob125
[09:16] <Rich4> rob: would you advise that I use the partitioner in the installer?
[09:16] <anolis> omg.. stupid keyboard
[09:16] <rawwar> you mean go and change the boot codes?
[09:16] <RoboticTao> pbx: Tried in ubuntu+1 already
[09:16] <usser> Athreya: i see, well
[09:16] <bora> !apple
[09:16] <Athreya> reinstall?
[09:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apple - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:16] <jotil> e will take you to edit
[09:16] <usser> Athreya: no
[09:17] <rawwar> like i can press 'e' to edit stuff
[09:17] <Athreya> yay
[09:17] <pbx> RoboticTao, you are not likely to get answers to Gutsy questions here -- per /topic
[09:17] <Rob125> Rich4: I'd swear by it. It's the one I recommended to you :P
[09:17] <bora> !swiftfox
[09:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about swiftfox - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:17] <Rob125> anolis: No, the -c should work just fine.
[09:17] <bora> !gutsy
[09:17] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 18th, 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[09:17] <usser> Athreya: listen how do u connect to the internet?
[09:17] <jotil> rawwar: can you press c
[09:17] <Athreya> through a router...a modem
[09:17] <punzada> Would it be better for me to install a light window manager distro of ubuntu on my p2 450mhz with 128megs of ram or should I just run it as a thin client on my p4 2.8ghz with a gig?
[09:18] <usser> Athreya: i can login to your box and take a look if u dont mind
[09:18] <Athreya> sure
[09:18] <jotil> and go to the command prompt?
[09:18] <usser> Athreya: aww a router.
[09:18] <Athreya> lol
[09:18] <rawwar> i think so i didnt try it because i am not yet familiar with the commands in the booter and linux
[09:18] <RoboticTao> pbx: ok, do you know why earlier versions of the 2.6 kernel won't install the nvidia drivers in gusty? wait wrong channel
[09:18] <Alamue2> Any known issues with Ubuntu running on a dual boot with XP on the same RAID 0 array?
[09:18] <usser> Athreya: crap
[09:18] <Athreya> i can bypass it...i think its on bridged mode
[09:18] <usser> Athreya: can u connect directly
[09:18] <jotil> rawwar: can you try going there?
[09:18] <usser> Athreya: yea that'd be dandy
[09:18] <Athreya> my modem is a router too...
[09:18] <anolis> yep, says my system is up to date..
[09:18] <usser> Athreya: dsl?
[09:18] <Athreya> hold on...gonna im you my ip...
[09:18] <Athreya> yeah
[09:19] <usser> Athreya: i know your ip :)
[09:19] <Athreya> yay
[09:19] <Athreya> nooooo
[09:19] <Athreya> lol
[09:19] <Athreya> do i have to enable anything?
[09:19] <jotil> rawwar: it will show something like: grub>
[09:19] <usser> Athreya: do sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[09:19] <jotil> Athreya: sshd
[09:20] <Rob125> ugh. Thanks, xchat.
[09:20] <xion> hello
[09:20] <anolis> Rob125 i just tried that on 2 systems, x86_64 and i386
[09:20] <Rich4> rob: should I create the swap partition at the beginning or the end?
[09:20] <Athreya> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[09:20] <chalcedony> is there any way to fix a printer busy error that doesn't involve closing everything i have running ?
[09:20] <rawwar> msg/ jotil okay i opened the terminal window should i try it from there?
[09:20] <Rob125> Rich4: It matters little. I do it at the end, but it doesn't matter.
[09:20] <jotil> usser: please do create an account for me as well in Athreya's machine so i can hack it later on ;)
[09:21] <Rob125> chalcedony: sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart, maybe?
[09:21] <usser> jotil: will do :)
[09:21] <Rich4> rob: and make both partitions logically?
[09:21] <usser> Athreya: anyhow
[09:21] <rob> Rich4, please stop that
[09:21] <usser> Athreya: do sudo dpkg --configure -a
[09:21] <RoboticTao> jotil: that wouldn't really be hacking would it
[09:21] <Rob125> Rich4: Yeah, sure.
[09:21] <Athreya> well...i aint really worried much. you wouldve already if ya wanted to...so :P
[09:21] <usser> RoboticTao: social engineering
[09:21] <jotil> RoboticTao: not really
[09:21] <Athreya> usser: done
[09:21] <Rob125> rob: Sorry about that, mate. I'll change to something a little less similar.
[09:21] <Athreya> it came to the cursor again
[09:21] <usser> Athreya: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[09:21] <Rich4> stop including your name? It's my fault. sorry
[09:22] <Orb125> Rich4: just address to 'orb' now.
[09:22] <jotil> rawwar: type: find /boot/vmlinuz
[09:22] <rob> Rich4, its not that you are including my name, you are actually using my exact name instead of rob125
[09:22] <Rich4> what about robotictao :P
[09:23] <chalcedony> praying hard that that worked
[09:23] <Rich4> ok rob
[09:23] <Orb125> Gasp, a sasktel cousin.
[09:23] <Orb125> Rich4: Got it okay?
[09:23] <Athreya> usser
[09:23] <Athreya> first i ran out of space...
[09:23] <usser> Athreya: yes
[09:23] <chalcedony> Rich4: ive still got the error /
[09:23] <Rich4> orb: I create both partitions logical, with the big one ext3 and the smaller swap
[09:23] <Athreya> then it doesnt let me run the commands now...hold on
[09:24] <usser> ahahaha
[09:24] <Orb125> Rich4: Correct. Then just keep a-going.
[09:24] <jotil> rofl
[09:24] <jotil> omg
[09:24] <IndyGunFreak> what did i miss?
[09:24] <Arafangion> Orb125: Could've used 521bor instead. ;)
[09:24] <jotil> this is horrible
[09:24] <RoboticTao> Rich4: What where you saying?
[09:24] <Athreya> dpkg: failed to write status record about `libxinerama1' to `/var/lib/dpkg/status': No space left on device
[09:24] <Athreya> jotil & usser: thanks for bearing with me
[09:25] <Basem> DerangedDingo r u there man
[09:25] <usser> Athreya: wow thats a mess
[09:25] <Rich4> robotic: nothing; just that you mightve gotten my messages when I said "rob:"
[09:25] <Athreya> uh huh
[09:25] <Athreya> i tried deleting what i'd recovered...now the folder is locked
[09:25] <usser> Athreya: do sudo rm -rf /tmp/*
[09:25] <Athreya> i try burning the files, it doesnt let me
[09:26] <usser> Athreya: carefully checking every letter!!!!!
[09:26] <jotil> lol
[09:26] <hhp21> Okay guys.. does anyone remember that StarDock program called multiplicity, that allowed you to control multiple computers with one mouse and keyboard? Are there any linux equivalents of that?
[09:26] <jotil> hahaha
[09:26] <RoboticTao> Rich4: oh, cool
[09:26] <Athreya> rm: cannot chdir from `.' to `/tmp/gconfd-root': Permission denied
[09:26] <Athreya> rm: cannot chdir from `.' to `/tmp/orbit-root': Permission denied
[09:26] <Snuxoll> hhp21: Not that I know of
[09:26] <Rich4> orb: would I have any reason to create more than one storage partition?
[09:26] <usser> wtf
[09:26] <Athreya> ty
[09:26] <jotil> what is going on really
[09:26] <Athreya> i wish i knew
[09:27] <sorsis> why some of my ntfs partitions are read only and one can be written?
[09:27] <Rich4> orb: and could you tell me about how much disk space ubuntu 7.04 uses?
[09:27] <Athreya> brb need to open windows...to smoke
[09:27] <usser> yea something is fishy allright
[09:27] <usser> maybe she is running from livecd or something
[09:27] <hhp21> Snuxoll: There's got to be :(
[09:27] <usser> or he
[09:27] <n08l3__> I am having no sound on my system which is having intel 82801 H Sound card.
[09:28] <cyclonut> Rich4: you can cut it down pretty slim
[09:28] <anolis> sorsis you need to get NTFS Configuration Tool
[09:28] <n08l3__> How should i troubleshoot or fix this problem
[09:28] <cyclonut> rich4: I think my basic install was under two gigs, I might not be remembering right though
[09:28] <Athreya> he
[09:28] <Rich4> cyclo: yeah i intended to have a 1024 mb swap with a 25G ext3
[09:28] <Athreya> and no
[09:28] <Athreya> no live cd
[09:29] <Juggernot> hello my brothers
[09:29] <Rich4> cyclo: does that sound good? or is there any reason I would want to create more storage partitions
[09:29] <anolis> sorsis you would need to type 'sudo apt-get install ntfs-config' into a terminal
[09:29] <usser> Athreya: so
[09:29] <anolis> to install it
[09:29] <Juggernot> 5 more days
[09:29] <Athreya> i boot from my hdd usser
[09:29] <cyclonut> rich4 - how much ram d o you have?
[09:30] <Rich4> cyclo I believe 512, though I'm not certain
[09:30] <usser> Athreya: right, how much space u allocated for / partition when installing
[09:30] <Juggernot> o
[09:30] <sorsis> anolis: i have set that all my ntfs partitions should be write enabled, but while i try to use ntfsmount it says that my drive is dirty.
[09:30] <Juggernot> 4 days
[09:30] <cyclonut> Rich4- go for a 1.5gb swap
[09:30] <Athreya> 40-50 gb
[09:30] <Juggernot> FOUR MORE DAYS!
[09:30] <Athreya> for the file system
[09:30] <cyclonut> and 25gbs will be fine for the rest, though you might feel cramped pretty soon
[09:30] <jotil> 40gb! enough...
[09:31] <Athreya> now that is full because i had earlier recovered data from another hdd
[09:31] <Orb125> Rich: I've heard somewhere in the area of 4gb total for 7.04.
[09:31] <anolis> sorsis i don't don't know much about any of that but i do know that ntfs-config did everything the way i wanted it to, and lets me write to all my ntfs drives
[09:31] <Rich4> cyclo: 1.5gb? what exactly does the swap do ?
[09:31] <Athreya> and am unable to delete that data...no permissions now
[09:31] <Rich4> orb: 4gb for a swap in 7.04?
[09:31] <sorsis> anolis: i have tried it and everything worked before.
[09:31] <usser> Athreya: ok do sudo rm -rf /var/cache/apt/archives/* checking every letter again this command is very dangerous
[09:31] <Orb125> Rich4: Eww, no. For the filesystem, that's how much room the default install takes.
[09:31] <Rich4> orb: what does the swap do?
[09:32] <Orb125> Rich4: The swap is like an extra pile of memory, in essence.
[09:32] <Athreya> i copy paste...
[09:32] <UbuntuAdmin> is there easy access to a p2p prog for ps3 ubuntu?
[09:32] <Athreya> :P
[09:32] <usser> Athreya: copy paste carefully :)
[09:32] <Athreya> lol
[09:32] <Orb125> Rich4: If your current memory is running out or needs to overflow, it'll use your swap memory instead.
[09:32] <Athreya> done
[09:32] <anolis> don't know sorsis, any error messages?
[09:32] <usser> right now try sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[09:32] <Orb125> Rich4: it also has some part in the defragmenting linux does when it's idle.
[09:32] <rdx> !ISO
[09:32] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[09:32] <Odo> anyone could help please, when i use the "iwpriv set command" i get "invalid command set" i think i need to blacklist a mod, or load a mod, for my wireless pcmcia card ralink
[09:33] <Orb125> Rich4: But 25mb ext3 mounted as /, and 1gb swap.
[09:33] <Athreya> done
[09:33] <ChupaChups> mehevi: so how do I learn about shells?
[09:33] <Rich4> orb: so if I played a game on linux like, for example, EVE online. One which is very resource demanding..
[09:33] <Athreya> installed
[09:33] <Orb125> Rich4: You wouldn't see a significant difference, because most of the memory you want in that case is dedicated graphics memory.
[09:33] <Rich4> orb: I could multitask like no other with 4gb swap?
[09:33] <rawwar> okay can anyone help me i cant get ubuntu to boot from hard disk after intall
[09:34] <usser> jotil: sshd doesnt require setup right?
[09:34] <rawwar> *install
[09:34] <usser> Athreya: are u connected through router
[09:34] <Orb125> Rich4: It gets useless at a point. Double your current memory is the figure that the bloggers bandy about, and I trust them.
[09:34] <jotil> rawwar: i was trying to help
[09:34] <Rich4> orb: oh, I understand. I forgot about all of that since I stopped gaming
[09:34] <Athreya> yes please
[09:34] <jotil> usser: you need to setup the daemon
[09:34] <Rich4> orb: because I have 512, shouldn't I use 1024 mb?
[09:35] <jotil> i mean just install it
[09:35] <usser> jotil: yea right right
[09:35] <jotil> not config required
[09:35] <Rich4> orb: or isn't there a way to check ram with linux?
[09:35] <tom_> whats a good snes emulator
[09:35] <usser> Athreya: can u bypass it?
[09:35] <Orb125> Rich4: Sure. It doesn't have to be exact -- it's not rocket science. Think of it as cooking -- a little bit more won't kill you, same with a little less.
[09:35] <Athreya> hold up
[09:35] <Athreya> not disconnecting cables...just checking router config
[09:35] <Orb125> tom_: zsnes is unbeatable. It's in the repos, too.
[09:36] <tom_> Orb125: sweet tah
[09:36] <Juggernot> cant u bypass anything as root
[09:36] <usser> Athreya: if u know your way around router forward 22 port
[09:36] <Athreya> k
[09:36] <kritzstapf> my system kind of crashed yesterday and id like to reinstall ubuntu, should i install the gutsy rc or still use feisty?
[09:36] <mohkohn> 7hrs 17 minutes to do an apt-get upgrade and 2hours 45 for bittorent to get me gutsy
[09:36] <RoboticTao> Juggernot: That is an ambiguous statement. Be more specific
[09:36] <mohkohn> I think bittorrent will win
[09:37] <Juggernot> no i was just thinking with text
[09:37] <Orb125> kritzstapf: depends what you're using for. I'm using both, and right now, feisty is a safer bet.
[09:37] <RoboticTao> mohkohn: The download rates fluctuate a lot
[09:37] <mohkohn> RoboticTao, in Cambodia they are pretty slow
[09:37] <jotil> mohkohn: i'd prefer alternate cd over update. personal preference really.
[09:38] <Juggernot> i no u can do a lot with su/sudo, such as adding/deleting files in olders like /usr/
[09:38] <jotil> upgrade^ i meant
[09:38] <Athreya> usser: done
[09:38] <mohkohn> jotil, I think that is what I will end up with
[09:38] <kritzstapf> Orb125, do you know what kind of changes are made to the release in these last days?
[09:38] <open-gl> does gaim uses irc
[09:38] <Juggernot> i no some stuff
[09:38] <Juggernot> ive seen tones of pages
[09:38] <Juggernot> showing previews
[09:38] <usser> Athreya: ok so u connected directly?
[09:39] <Juggernot> gimp 2.4 comin out with gutsy W00T!
[09:39] <hhp21> Hey guys, what's the path to my sources list?
[09:39] <mohkohn> This might be a dumb question but would my torrent go faster if I stopped apt-getting?
[09:39] <Athreya> yes
[09:39] <Orb125> kritzstapf: Everything and anything. It's massive bug-fix time.
[09:39] <mohkohn> hhp21, /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:39] <usser> Athreya: hm cant connect
[09:39] <cyclonut> mokhon of course.
[09:39] <Athreya> gotta warn you though...my connection is slow as a toad
[09:39] <Athreya> you cant??
[09:39] <jotil> rawwar
[09:39] <Athreya> hold on
[09:39] <cyclonut> mohkohn: assuming you are on a good torrent
[09:40] <kritzstapf> Orb125, okay, maybe ill use this system for 4 days, waiting patiently ;)
[09:40] <Athreya> usser i got to come back online...
[09:40] <Athreya> stay put
[09:40] <mohkohn> cyclonut, thanks giving it a go
[09:40] <Athreya> Please =)
[09:40] <Orb125> kritzstapf: I'd wait about a month, to be honest. Let it have the chance to work out the kinks. I've found that gutsy is a little farther away from polish than feisty was.
[09:41] <mohkohn> cyclonut, he has a green happy face. I think that is as good as I will get here
[09:41] <cyclonut> Rich4: so you know, my ubuntu install, which has quite a lot of stuff on, has ~5gb of stuff that isnt just my personal data, that makes up the OS and all my installed software
[09:41] <kritzstapf> Orb125, cant wait a month :D
[09:41] <jotil> dude, that has to be worst read/write issue ever
[09:41] <Orb125> kritzstapf: you could always dual boot.
[09:41] <mohkohn> cyclonut, is your nic a reference to the Son Sisomauth song?
[09:41] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[09:41] <kritzstapf> ill see
[09:42] <cyclonut> mohkohn: nope, its a reference to the fact that I like to ride my bicycle ;)
[09:42] <raddy> Does Ubuntu support delta updating at least in its forth-coming release
[09:42] <kdomn> ahh, sweet i found this place, dont often use IRC
[09:42] <Juggernot> i like to connect to this channel and just watch the activity
[09:42] <Juggernot> anticipate gutsy
[09:42] <AJ--> ei guys.. i have install VLC Kmplay Mplayer.. but still cant play rmvb file :(( y
[09:42] <mohkohn> ok. So not in Cambodia riding a 3 wheel pedicab known as a cyclo then!
[09:43] <Where2DL> what does everybody use to search for music and stuff to download on ubuntu
[09:43] <Orb125> Juggernor: I totally commiserate. I join this channel and just... learn.
[09:43] <usser> Athreya: so?
[09:43] <cyclonut> mohkohn: haha, no that isnt my bag
[09:43] <jotil> ok, i'll go pass out or watch some tv. enough of being a good samaritan today. good luck usser and Athreya.
[09:43] <Dialntone> I am having some trouble with file permissions and user names
[09:43] <Orb125> Where2DL: We would never download music illegally. However, Frostwire tends to be a good peer-to-peer client.
[09:43] <Orb125> Where2DL: www.frostwire.com
[09:43] <AJ--> any idea y i still cant play rmvb files?? ive installed VLC Kmplayer and Mplayer
[09:44] <Dialntone> :( three files are for root and not me the owner
[09:44] <Athrey1> back
[09:44] <usser> jotil: see you have a good one
[09:44] <Dialntone> i don't know how to change them back
[09:44] <IndyGunFreak> AJ--: what is an rmvb file?.. never heard of it.
[09:44] <mindframe_> any gui tools out there for managing lvm?
[09:44] <usser> Athrey1: so?
[09:44] <Athrey1> try accessing now
[09:44] <Dialntone> how do i make root files, my user-name ?
[09:44] <Orb125> Dialntone: chown <username> <path/to/filename>
[09:44] <usser> Athrey1: nope cant
[09:44] <modumas1> hey all
[09:44] <Dialntone> :D
[09:44] <Where2DL> coolness
[09:45] <Athrey1> you sure i dont have to enable anything here?
[09:45] <mohkohn> Is there something I can do to make my azureus torrent go faster?
[09:45] <usser> Athrey1: no do u have firewall installed? firestarter?
[09:45] <Athrey1> nope
[09:45] <kdomn> hey, is there anybody that could help me? im trying to find the right ubuntu distro for my system
[09:45] <Dialntone> i dont' get it Orb125
[09:45] <mohkohn> kdomn, tell us about your system
[09:45] <Dialntone> can i do it to awhole  folder
[09:46] <Dialntone> and all files under it
[09:46] <Dialntone> in
[09:46] <RoboticTao> kdomn: What architecture is it?
[09:46] <Orb125> mohkohn: Get out and push? (just make sure you're not hogging up your downstream)
[09:46] <Athrey1> not in my list of programs no
[09:46] <Athrey1> any other way to find out?
[09:46] <Orb125> Dailntone: sure. chmod -R <username> <path/to/folder>
[09:46] <kdomn> i have a intel duel core 64 but it seems that the iso i have is for amd and my system doesnt seem to like it
[09:46] <Orb125> Dialntone: Just make sure you don't typo. I did that the other day, and chowned / to user 1001.
[09:46] <cyclonut> mohkohn: and if you are uploading @ your max it tends to slow down your download as well
[09:47] <WaltzingAlong> Dialntone: chown -R user:group path
[09:47] <kdomn> it loads the kernal and then just stops
[09:47] <Flannel> Dialntone: Where are those root files?
[09:47] <modumas1> hey all, i have a Ktorrent question and the channel ktorrent well, doesnt exist.. does anyone know how to change the default preview applicetion to vlc player?
[09:47] <usser> Athrey1: hang on, whats your internet dsl?
[09:47] <cyclonut> kdomn: one of the core-2-duos?
[09:47] <Dialntone> chown -r edward /vista invalid option r
[09:47] <Orb125> Dialntone: Capital R.
[09:47] <Athrey1> Airtel
[09:47] <RoboticTao> kdomn: Unless it's a k7 kernel (old) then it shouldn't be amd specific. what version is it?
[09:48] <kdomn> i have tried both 7.04 and 6.06
[09:48] <Athrey1> its Indian
[09:48] <kdomn> they both do the same thing
[09:48] <Athrey1> unless you're talking about speeds where its just 256 kbps
[09:48] <modumas1> man i have to make some.. never mind
[09:48] <Dialntone> `vista/wb-vsp132bit6001.16659.dvd.r59': Operation not permitted
[09:48] <Orb125> NN, folks :)
[09:48] <Flannel> kdomn: What do you mean 'just stops'?  is this from a liveCD?
[09:48] <IndyGunFreak> kdomn: whats your problem again?
[09:49] <Delphinus>  how do you actually get thunderbird to save imap mail locally (not just get headers)
[09:49] <RoboticTao> kdomn: Have you tried using the kernel option acpi=off or noapic?
[09:49] <Flannel> Delphinus: You need to set it for offline use
[09:49] <_> cam show
[09:49] <Dialntone> my operation is not permitted 0rb125
[09:49] <kdomn> i currently have vista buisness installed and iv been trying to run it of the cd so i select run/install but i never get to the option between the two

[09:56] <darkchr0n0s__> usser : on the router ?
[09:56] <pwnt-> Please anybody know

[10:00] <Athrey1> my other router takes care of the port blocking thing...now am plugged into my modem...the routers out of the picture
[10:00] <kdomn> OK, i tried both and same thing, i get kernal alive, then dernal direct mapping then my monitor gets no signal, turns off and nothing

[10:03] <xion> i cant find it in synaptic for some reason but ill try the terminal thanx
[10:03] <Athrey1> done

[10:03] <stupidgirl> hai if i want 2 get fluxbox and i insytall it is it gonna screw lots of stuff up? i have ubuntu feisty
[10:04] <xion> Package libdvdcss is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[10:04] <xion> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[10:04] <xion> is only available from another source
[10:04] <xion> E: Package libdvdcss has no installation candidate
[10:04] <usser> Athrey1: launch it
[10:04] <riotkittie> stupidgirl: no, everything will be fine, and you will be able to select fluxbox from the login screen

[10:11] <daveinthesky> bullgard4: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/ref-guide/ch-proc.html
[10:11] <Dumptruck> can I change settings in Ubuntu to make it work?  also now it won't boot even with the Ubuntu drive disabled
[10:11] <Athrey1> done
[10:11] <usser> darklard: not true
[10:11] <riotkittie> !ntfs-3g | darklard
[10:11] <ubotu> darklard: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:12] <usser> Athrey1: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[10:12] <usser> again
[10:12] <Athrey1> done
[10:12] <darklard> thanks!
[10:12] <Athrey1> firestarter doesnt work though
[10:12] <usser> Athrey1: what was the output of ssh restart?
[10:12] <stupidgirl> am i able 2 have kde and gnome both, and choose which one i want to use each time?
[10:13] <FallenHitokiri> Psi-Jack: sudo asoundconf list     and sudo asoundconf set-default-card "card"
[10:13] <Dumptruck> kinda a bummer since it has all of my goodies - would be a shame to have to reinstall everything
[10:13] <Athrey1>  * Restarting OpenBSD Secure Shell server...                             [ OK ] 
[10:13] <Dumptruck> is there a work around?
[10:13] <bullgard4> daveinthesky: It appears that you have not read my question with normal care. I have asked for a DEB program package.
[10:13] <usser> Athrey1: gksu /usr/sbin/firestarter ?
[10:13] <Psi-Jack> FallenHitokiri: Oh wow. There's a TOOL for that now? I used to have to use module aliasing techniques before..
[10:13] <riotkittie> Dumptruck: i'm trying to wrap my head around this because it's been years since i've had seperate OSes on seperate drives.  was GRUB installed or no?
[10:13] <novato_br> I have a mp4 with rockchip and on my linux doesn't works! When I connect the mp4, the HAL mounts the mp4, but I can't  read or write files on mp4! I've been looking for one answer without succeed
[10:13] <FallenHitokiri> Psi-Jack: well that is another way, but I think this one is easier ;)
[10:14] <Athrey1> yay
[10:14] <Dumptruck> both OS's were installed independently of each other
[10:14] <Psi-Jack> FallenHitokiri: Heh, no doubt. Perfect, thanks. I was tired of loading up, and waiting to see which sound card was made default between each boot. LOL
[10:14] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: what filesystem is on your mp4?
[10:14] <Athrey1> firestarter's up
[10:14] <FallenHitokiri> Psi-Jack: np
[10:14] <usser> Athrey1: ok mmm did it ask for any setup?
[10:14] <novato_br> FallenHitokiri, it's vfat, i think
[10:14] <daveinthesky> bullgard4: there is no package that owns those files because they are part of a virtual filesystem.  the linux kernel creates.  the kernel is part of the linux-image package.  apt-cache search linux-image
[10:14] <Athrey1> running it
[10:14] <usser> Athrey1: just accept default options
[10:15] <Dumptruck> no was grub updated... I don't think so
[10:15] <Athrey1> i did
[10:15] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: can you create a directory with sudo mkdir /path/to/mp4/mountpoint ?
[10:15] <usser> Athrey1: and then open it and click stop firewall button
[10:15] <Athrey1> done
[10:15] <novato_br> FallenHitokiri: on windows, the mp4, it's works
[10:15] <novato_br> noflex, FallenHitokiri
[10:15] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: do you need a seperate driver?
[10:15] <novato_br> no: FallenHitokiri
[10:15] <novato_br> how ?
[10:16] <novato_br> driver?
[10:16] <AboSamoor> i have a problem with removing ldap-account-manager i got an error which makes dpkg exit with return value (1), so i can't make any updates . this is a thread for the error message http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/40604/
[10:16] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: yeah if you use it in windows
[10:16] <Dialntone> can u download 1mbps, and burn a cd at the same time?
[10:16] <novato_br> have I get it
[10:16] <novato_br> FallenHitokiri: but my mp4 it's "generic" like we called by here
[10:16] <usser> Athrey1: arrg
[10:16] <novato_br> haahah
[10:16] <Athrey1> still doesnt work?
[10:17] <Athrey1> hold on
[10:17] <FallenHitokiri> Dialntone: thanks to a buffer underrun protection this _could_ work if you programm knows how big the image is and doesn't stop reading at the end of the file
[10:17] <novato_br> wait, FallenHitokiri , plz i will give you more information
[10:17] <FallenHitokiri> Dialntone: at least don't write with a greater speed than 1x
[10:17] <Dialntone> hmmm
[10:17] <riotkittie> Dumptruck: how did you install ubuntu - alternate CD or the live CD?
[10:17] <Dumptruck> live cd
[10:17] <stupidgirl> HIIII i have gnome and i want to be able to use kde sometimes, if itry to install it from synaptic it wants me to install a bunch of other kde apps, i just want basic kde without all this extra stuff is there a better way?
[10:18] <daveinthesky> bullgard4: try these commands:  dpkg-query -S /bin/ls; dpkg-query -S /proc;
[10:18] <CapaH> thanks daveinthesky
[10:18] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: I have no idea. I don't know the player, root cannot create a directory which means that you also cannot chmod what would be useless because vfat has no real permission management,...
[10:18] <Psi-Jack> FallenHitokiri: Hmmm, That didn't.. Seem.. To work. It's still coming out my darned nForce2 soundcard. :/
[10:18] <Dialntone> i am soo excited i don't feel intimidated by linux this time around and' i've gain so much learning this time around
[10:18] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: what does mount say?
[10:18] <Dumptruck> so it isn't a problem of windows?
[10:18] <daveinthesky> bullgard4: dpkg-query -S [FILE]   tells you which package owns a particular file
[10:18] <Dialntone> its a great feeling :)
[10:18] <usser> Athrey1: can u ssh to yourself
[10:18] <novato_br> the hal mount the mp4
[10:18] <stupidgirl> taht's geat Dialntone
[10:18] <usser> Athrey1: try ssh 192.168.1.3
[10:18] <Athrey1> how do i do that?
[10:19] <stupidgirl> great*
[10:19] <riotkittie> Dumptruck: do me a favor. open a terminal and... type "cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | grep Windows" ... if there are any results, let me know (but dont paste them to the channel :P )
[10:19] <novato_br> FallenHitokiri: i don't need the mount the mp4
[10:19] <FallenHitokiri> stupidgirl: there is no basic kde if you use kubuntu-desktop. thats a meta package that pulls many other packages. search for kde-base,...
[10:19] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: i repeat: what does mount say
[10:19] <Dialntone> thanks stupidgirl
[10:19] <stupidgirl> ok FallenHitokiri  trhanks
[10:19] <FallenHitokiri> stupidgirl: np
[10:19] <novato_br> nothing
[10:19] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: did you enter the command in a terminal?
[10:19] <usser> Athrey1: join #usser
[10:19] <novato_br> i don't need, FallenHitokiri
[10:19] <bullgard4> daveinthesky: Thank you for helping. I have found the answer thanks to your explanations. The correct answer is linux-image-2.6.20-15-generic
[10:20] <novato_br> the HAL mounts the mp4 for me
[10:20] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: now open a terminal and enter mount or solve your problem by your own
[10:20] <usser> Athrey1: its quiet there
[10:20] <novato_br> HAL = Hardware Abstract Layer
[10:20] <Athrey1> k
[10:20] <Dialntone> so whats amazing things do you use linux for stupidgirl
[10:20] <L0GAN> hello, would installing using Wubi be advisable?
[10:20] <Dumptruck> cat: /boot/grub/cat: No such file or directory
[10:20] <Dumptruck> # title         Windows 95/98/NT/2000
[10:20] <novato_br> wait, FallenHitokiri
[10:21] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: I know what hal is and I know how hal interacts with dbus. that changes _nothing_ on the fact that I want the output of mount
[10:21] <L0GAN> !wubi
[10:21] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[10:21] <FallenHitokiri> Psi-Jack: hm. that not good ;) you don't speak german, do you?
[10:21] <novato_br> oktanouc, FallenHitokiri, sorry
[10:21] <Psi-Jack> FallenHitokiri: Umm, no, I don't. ;)
[10:21] <novato_br> FallenHitokiri: i won't offend you
[10:21] <stupidgirl> for everything, Dialntone 8-} I'm almost ready to completely get rid of windoze
[10:22] <riotkittie> Dumptruck: ah ha. ok. now type cat /boot/grub/menu.lst   ... copy and paste the entire file to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[10:22] <FallenHitokiri> Psi-Jack: IIRC in the german debian handbook is a section that handles this topic,.. but i don't know where the english translation is
[10:22] <L0GAN> and whats the ideall size to use for Ubuntu?
[10:22] <L0GAN> another question.. I was tolld about UbuntuStudio
[10:22] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: you, at 10am I don't like telling people one command 5 times and they just ignore me and lecture me because they don't know what it does
[10:23] <FallenHitokiri> L0GAN: you mean partition?
[10:23] <toast> Hi, My second screen is larger than my second monitor and keeps scrolling. Could anyone help me set it up correctly please?
[10:23] <cursor101> hey
[10:23] <Dialntone> stupidgirl,  i'm in this mode where' im looking for all sorts of alternatives for windows -- i've got deb packages like Limewire, nero burner, and crossover installed on ubuntu --- even got halflife installed .. but i have sound issues
[10:23] <stupidgirl> Dialntone, , ugh why limewire 8-}
[10:23] <L0GAN> : FallenHitokiri dunno, wubi doesnt need partition, but yes the size needed
[10:23] <stupidgirl> Dialntone, try gtk-gnutella
[10:23] <Dialntone> limewire is easier, thangtk
[10:23] <FallenHitokiri> toast: setup your xorg.conf http://wiki.hopelesscom.de/doku.php/configuration/xinerama here is how I set it up with 2 differend screens
[10:23] <Dialntone> than gtk
[10:23] <L0GAN> FallenHitokiri : i know it depends on number of installed apps ofcourse
[10:24] <kritzstapf> frostwire would be for free
[10:24] <stupidgirl> o.O mmmk
[10:24] <elvirolo2> hi everyone
[10:24] <FallenHitokiri> L0GAN: sorry I have no idea about wubi. But I use 5gb for / and the rest for /home to store my user data on. so if you go with 5gb you can assign the rest of your space later
[10:24] <Dialntone> stupidgirl, i feel more at home :) -- don't have be completely linux out, but yah noooo
[10:24] <Dumptruck> riotkittie: is that bad?
[10:25] <FallenHitokiri> L0GAN: 5GB are with all apps I need only 60% full, so enough space for /tmp and /var (which should be on a seperate partition)
[10:25] <toast> FallenHitokiri: Thanks. I'll look at that.
[10:25] <Dialntone> stupidgirl,  maybe u can help me out do you know much about cpanel
[10:25] <L0GAN> FallenHitokiri : but its on to use windows formatted partitions for storage of documents and files?
[10:25] <stupidgirl> Dialntone, nooo sorry im a noob
[10:25] <riotkittie> Dumptruck: not necessarily. did you paste the file, and if so can you give me the URL?
[10:25] <L0GAN> is UbuntuStudio official ubuntu?
[10:25] <FallenHitokiri> L0GAN: what filesystem do you want to use?
[10:25] <Dumptruck> cat: /boot/grub/cat: No such file or directory
[10:25] <Dumptruck> # title         Windows 95/98/NT/2000
[10:25] <toast> Do you know of any GUI tools which would help me avoid having to edit text files completely?
[10:25] <L0GAN> (didnt see link anywhere
[10:25] <Dumptruck> that one?
[10:26] <Dialntone> stupidgirl, have you ever tried creating websites, or installing scripts ?
[10:26] <elvirolo2> i'm tring to copy 80 GB of data from my desktop PC to my laptop (both running kubuntu). The thing is when I connect my laptop to my routeur (linksys wrt54G) via Ethernet, it cannot ping the router or the pc. why is that ?
[10:26] <L0GAN> FallenHitokiri : I still need to decide
[10:26] <r_rehashed> hi all
[10:26] <stupidgirl> Dialntone, basic websites yeah
[10:26] <L0GAN> FallenHitokiri : I now use win2000 with fat32
[10:26] <AboSamoor> i have problem with making problems with upgrading packages because i can't remove ldap-account-manager package ?!!!
[10:27] <FallenHitokiri> L0GAN: if you go with ext3 everything is fine, just install the ext3 driver for windows (ext3 - linux native fs) if you use ntfs wait for gutsy, ntfs3g with read / write access is available. but fat is no real choice, a fs without journaling is nothing you want if your system crashes
[10:27] <Airwulf> hello to you
[10:27] <L0GAN> FallenHitokiri : wubi makes some virtual disk
[10:27] <FallenHitokiri> elvirolo2: do you get a ip?   please post ifconfig output
[10:27] <Dumptruck> riotkittie: did I paste the right results?
[10:27] <FallenHitokiri> L0GAN: sorry but I really cannot help you with wubi
[10:28] <Dialntone> stupidgirl, there's this thing called cpanel if you're paying for a server u get php mysql, and all these other powerful databases -- so anyway u can via  run this module called fantasico and install oscommerce, site builder deluxe the works
[10:28] <L0GAN> FallenHitokiri : another question, will future versions of ubuntu auto detect usb withh casper-rw partition to automatically be in persistent mode?
[10:28] <rongxr> wubi
[10:28] <elvirolo2> FallenHitokiri: ok give me a sec
[10:28] <stupidgirl> Dialntone,  oookey 8-} kool
[10:28] <Airwulf> Where can I read which mount options (in which syntax) are allowed in gconf-editor system->storage->volumnes. With google I found nothing
[10:28] <L0GAN> FallenHitokiri : persistent for live cd
[10:28] <riotkittie> Dumptruck: no. I wanted the whole file but it's looking like  the only thing in there is the example for windows, so it doesnt matter anyway.
[10:29] <FallenHitokiri> L0GAN: I use no livecd and I am no developer so I cannot answer this, sorry
[10:29] <Dialntone> stupidgirl, its' the easiest website creation ever put together, and i need a cpanel on linux so i can my merge from windows to linux and start creathing sites and things serve from linux - everything will be done on my own :).. i'd be my own master :D
[10:29] <L0GAN> FallenHitokiri : live mode is cool I think, neds no install and is like having portable ubuntu
[10:29] <L0GAN> FallenHitokiri : only i dont get persistent working
[10:29] <elvirolo2> FallenHitokiri: yes it did get an IP address : 192.168.1.103
[10:30] <riotkittie> Dumptruck: what i would do, if i were you -and again, it's been so long since i've done one OS on one disk, and one OS on the other, so feel free to take this with a grain of salt-  remove the boot flag on the ubuntu partition [i'm assuming it's the 2nd drive?]  and pop a live CD in, and go through GRUB setup, and let that handle both win and ubuntu loading.
[10:30] <FallenHitokiri> L0GAN: if I need a live cd I use it for forensics or recovery,... if I need a mobile linux I got my laptop ;)
[10:30] <FallenHitokiri> elvirolo2: how many interfaces are listed by ifconfig?
[10:31] <Dialntone> anyone know how to make a terminal play videos like in that one movie anti-trust...
[10:31] <L0GAN> FallenHitokiri : ah yes, I only have usb stick, lo laptop. Its also nice to take to friends and show ubuntu to them
[10:31] <elvirolo2> FallenHitokiri: two : eth0 (ethernet) and eth1 (wifi, which is down)
[10:31] <toast> I'm trying to edit my xorg.conf file. Is there a way I can run a program as a different user from the GUI, like windows right click "run as" option?
[10:31] <L0GAN> dont have a laptop :(
[10:31] <FallenHitokiri> Dialntone: mplayer would be a option, aalib,... (I don'T know the antitrust movie)
[10:31] <FallenHitokiri> elvirolo2: ping -I eth0 192.168.1.1
[10:31] <Dumptruck> riotkittie: can you point me to a website that would have step by step instructions....  monkeying with the grub file kinda scares me...  I am still relatively new to the Linux thing
[10:31] <r_rehashed> wish there is a Gnash plugin for Gaim/Pidgin so i could get those Yahoo! audibles while chatting
[10:32] <FallenHitokiri> toast: Alt+F2 gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:32] <Dialntone> i wanna access movies in the terminal and have them played on their
[10:32] <r_rehashed> only thing that keeps my friends away from using Gaim
[10:32] <r_rehashed> :P
[10:32] <riotkittie> Dumptruck: no need to be scared, it's really no big deal. hold on a sec.

[10:33] <FallenHitokiri> elvirolo2: ... wait a moment please...
[10:33] <elvirolo2> FallenHitokiri: ok :)
[10:33] <Dumptruck> thanks for your help - it is much appreciated
[10:33] <toast> FallenHitokiri: Thanks. it's a bit of a workaround but will do.
[10:33] <r_rehashed> sense: no
[10:33] <xion> thanx all that helped
[10:33] <FallenHitokiri> elvirolo2: there is something really wrong oO you use network manager?
[10:33] <xion> gnight
[10:33] <Dialntone> putty help u tsairox
[10:33] <elvirolo2> FallenHitokiri: yes
[10:33] <inflex> Anyone suggest a suspend-2-disk system that works on an Opteron box? (yes, I've got a pes36 capable CPU)
[10:34] <inflex> pse even
[10:34] <sense> r_rehashed: then is it faster? I dont see much speed improvement
[10:34] <riotkittie> my head is killing me, so i'm crawling off to bed, but if you need anything, someone in here should have an answer. good luck, Dumptruck
[10:34] <riotkittie> nite everyone
[10:34] <Dumptruck> riotkittie:  actually Ubuntu is on my primary drive
[10:34] <Dialntone> <-- needs cpanel a free one
[10:34] <Dumptruck> and it is the only os I can boot into
[10:34] <inflex> I've tried s2disk but it never recognises the swap as a suspend image
[10:34] <FallenHitokiri> Dialntone: do you need this for a root-server conected to the inet?
[10:35] <smmagic> My computer has been smelling like burning, but i've checked inside and nothing is wrong
[10:35] <smmagic> Any ideas?
[10:35] <inflex> smmagic: new computer?
[10:35] <smmagic> Nope..
[10:35] <Dialntone> yes
[10:35] <toast> smmagic, can you tell if it's the powersupply, or something else?
[10:35] <FallenHitokiri> smmagic: only a fly in your power suply
[10:35] <smmagic> A fly?
[10:35] <inflex> smmagic: is it an electronic/acrid smell?
[10:35] <inflex> (like metal)
[10:35] <smmagic> Electronic
[10:35] <Dialntone> its for my own personal use so i can test out a wide variety of scripts, without having to pay a server like hostgator
[10:35] <r_rehashed> sense: it's faster for applications that require a lot of calculations like gaming and for Virtualization which makes use of the special flags 64-bit processors have to enhance virtualization
[10:35] <FallenHitokiri> smmagic: why not ;)
[10:36] <smmagic> And 1 capacitor is leaking
[10:36] <toast> where?
[10:36] <smmagic> Just one though
[10:36] <inflex> smmagic: well, if you've got leaking caps, yeah... I'd get that replaced:)
[10:36] <toast> leaking caps is a bad thing
[10:36] <elvirolo2> FallenHitokiri: could there be something wrong with the router?
[10:36] <inflex> smmagic: could be causing undue load on other parts of the circuit
[10:36] <toast> are they on the motherboard?
[10:36] <FallenHitokiri> Dialntone: ah, key. I just asked because - don't take it personal - a rootserver without knowlege is not really a good thing ;) did you look at webmin, syspanel,...
[10:36] <smmagic> There is all the dust sticking to the side lol
[10:36] <inflex> ie, if a cap isn't filtering/smoothing right then it'll make the job of the regulators or transistors a lot harder
[10:37] <Dialntone> not yet
[10:37] <FallenHitokiri> elvirolo2: nope. I bet on your notebook configuration even if I am not really sure where to start
[10:37] <FallenHitokiri> elvirolo2: I would start with a manual configuration to sue dhcp to pass NM
[10:37] <toast> and make the supplies more noisy which will increase the chance of errors on your system.
[10:37] <smmagic> Its not leaking onto motherboard though
[10:37] <novato_br> FallenHitokiri: my problem like is : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/61235
[10:37] <shangmingming> 
[10:37] <elvirolo2> FallenHitokiri: ok

[10:37] <novato_br> i don't know where I put the rules.
[10:38] <novato_br> shangmingming, its ubuntu-jp
[10:38] <smmagic> Perfect..
[10:38] <Dialntone> thanks
[10:38] <handinugraha> halo
[10:38] <smmagic> I'm broke
[10:38] <Dialntone> stupidgirl, are you still there?
[10:38] <FallenHitokiri> novato_br: since I don't get answers if I ask you something I have no intention to help you
[10:38] <elvirolo2> FallenHitokiri: still doesn't work :(
[10:38] <t4dyce> does anyone know the command to create a bootable disk ?
[10:38] <FallenHitokiri> elvirolo2: again: ping
[10:38] <stupidgirl> Dialntone, kinda 8-] 
[10:38] <Dialntone> lol
[10:38] <elvirolo2> FallenHitokiri: still the same
[10:38] <toast> smmagic: get a meter and check all the supply rails from the power supply and make sure thats not cooking anything. If it's not that, it could be a dodgy mother board.
[10:39] <FallenHitokiri> elvirolo2: ping 127.0.0.1
[10:39] <smmagic> A meter?
[10:39] <toast> There was a spate of bad caps going around a few years ago.

[10:40] <stupidgirl> o.O myspace? lawl

[10:40] <FallenHitokiri> toast: no
[10:40] <toast> thanks
[10:40] <UbuntuAdmin> yeah i have a prob too..someone help
[10:40] <FallenHitokiri> autem: ask
[10:40] <FallenHitokiri> UbuntuAdmin: just ask ...
[10:40] <UbuntuAdmin> i deleted my alpications bar by mistake
[10:41] <FallenHitokiri> UbuntuAdmin: rightclick -> add applet -> window list
[10:41] <Dialntone> is there a better graphical terminal webbrowser than lynx?
[10:41] <FallenHitokiri> Dialntone: links2
[10:41] <Dialntone> can it handle pictures?
[10:41] <smmagic> Could the burning be the monitor?
[10:41] <FallenHitokiri> Dialntone: should
[10:41] <autem> Well, I'm trying to install ubuntu from live disk or w/e, but when I using the installer, it fubar's at the harddrive partion bit....only gives me the manual option, I click next, I see nothing. can't install
[10:42] <FallenHitokiri> smmagic: why not? got a powersupply too
[10:42] <Dialntone> liar
[10:42] <toast> Sorry for all the basic questions. I'm an intermediate beginner on the commandline, but I've got no idea about the whole GUI side of Linux,
[10:42] <UbuntuAdmin> i don't have the add aplet option
[10:42] <UbuntuAdmin> when i right clik
[10:43] <elvirolo2> /joijn #linux
[10:43] <FallenHitokiri> UbuntuAdmin: you click on a pannel, right?
[10:43] <UbuntuAdmin> yup
[10:43] <Enselic> UbuntuAdmin: you must click on an empty space on the panel, not a panel item
[10:43] <FallenHitokiri> Dialntone: http://images.google.com/images?q=links2+linux    don't tell someone to be a liar if you have no clue
[10:44] <Rich4> Is it possible to improve the sound quality?
[10:44] <Rich4> --with ubuntu
[10:44] <Enselic> Rich4: depends entirely on your drivers
[10:45] <Enselic> Rich4: some sound setting combinations can make the sounds sound ugly however, experient with settings in the GNOME Mixer
[10:45] <UbuntuAdmin> ok...i cliked the panel and i clicked to add window list but my system and applications and places locations are gone
[10:45] <Rich4> Sound is very quiet on ubuntu, while it can get rather loud on windows
[10:45] <leprasmurf> hello all
[10:46] <FallenHitokiri> UbuntuAdmin: thats another applet, you add it the same way
[10:46] <scrumpyGums> leprasmurf: hi
[10:46] <Enselic> Rich4: you probably just have lowered the master or something..
[10:46] <Enselic> Rich4: the master volume*
[10:46] <leprasmurf> wanted to sanity check my thought
[10:46] <Enselic> Rich4: Applications -> Sound & Video -> GNOME ALSA Mixer
[10:46] <Rich4> I've maxed the sound on the tool bar.. where else could the master be?
[10:46] <FallenHitokiri> Rich4: PCM
[10:46] <Rich4> I'm adding the mixer now
[10:47] <leprasmurf> I have a laptop that's hooked up to a wireless lan, I'd like to connect it to a desktop via switch and send all traffic through the wireless on my laptop
[10:47] <UbuntuAdmin> ok ok...thanks alot...i found the menu bar app
[10:47] <UbuntuAdmin> appreciate that
[10:47] <sphinx_> hi
[10:47] <leprasmurf> I'm figuring using squid to listen on the wired network and pipe to wireless network
[10:48] <sphinx_> okay i got 10 mins to kill. Anyone got questions about encryption?
[10:48] <Athreya121> damn...Usser's gone?
[10:48] <Athreya121> jotil?
[10:48] <autem> so....none knows how to get ubuntu to find my hard-drives so I can actualy install? yes they are plugged in _
[10:48] <Rich4> Enselic: I can't find GNOME ALSA Mixer
[10:48] <FallenHitokiri> leprasmurf: you you just want to use your notebook as a router think about iptables
[10:48] <john_> _
[10:48] <Enselic> Rich4: hmm might not be installed by defalt
[10:48] <sphinx_> autem, have you type fdisk -l
[10:48] <leprasmurf> FallenHitokiri: faster?
[10:49] <autem> yes I did all that, nothing came up
[10:49] <Enselic> Rich4: do you know how to install stuff in Ubuntu?
[10:49] <sphinx_> what exactly did it say
[10:49] <FallenHitokiri> leprasmurf: easier to setup and it tunnels _everything_.
[10:49] <Rich4> Enselic: I'm at the add/remove window now; the mixer was not under sound&video programs for 'supported ubuntu apps
[10:49] <leprasmurf> FallenHitokiri: I occassionally use my laptop on a different network, wired interface, would this be easy to enable/disable on demand?
[10:50] <autem> mhm some crap about more options
[10:50] <FallenHitokiri> leprasmurf: with a little script, yes
[10:50] <Enselic> Rich4: try to find it in System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[10:50] <petria> server irc.e,
[10:50] <petria> server irc.e,
[10:50] <Enselic> Rich4: if it's not in Add/Remove it will be in synaptic
[10:50] <leprasmurf> FallenHitokiri: sweet, I love scripts.  thanks
[10:50] <Athreya121> jExcuse me...who is the administrator of this room?
[10:50] <Rich4> enselic: for all available I see ALSA Mixer
[10:50] <Athreya121> or even someone who's a regular here
[10:50] <Athreya121> ?
[10:50] <FallenHitokiri> leprasmurf: np
[10:50] <sphinx_> Rich4, type alsamixer in the terminal
[10:51] <Enselic> Rich4: oh well, ALSA Mixer is the same thing but a command line interface
[10:51] <FallenHitokiri> Athreya121: what do you want to know?
[10:51] <sphinx_> magic will happen
[10:51] <Enselic> Rich4: a little bit harder to use, but why not give it a shot I guess
[10:51] <Athreya121> i just want to thank usser, jotil & nickrud for helping me out...
[10:51] <knuffelbeertje> hi, how to get a citrix client on ubuntu
[10:51] <Athreya121> usser was helping me troubleshoot when my computer conked off...just got back online via live cd...please tell them am going to try reinstalling
[10:51] <autem> tried to find the partions in 'gparted' ...didn't find anything either, like the installer
[10:51] <Athreya121> thank you
[10:52] <sphinx_> autem, maybe your mbr is corrupted
[10:52] <autem> mbr?
[10:52] <sphinx_> master boot record
[10:52] <sphinx_> it has partition data
[10:53] <autem> er if it is how do I fix it?
[10:53] <lunz__> how to switch between windows using keyboard?any hotkeys?
[10:53] <sphinx_> no idea
[10:53] <inflex> lunz__: alt-tab?
[10:54] <novato_br> i can solve my trouble! But i wanna understand what was going on !
[10:54] <autem> if it was corrupt though, woudnt windows be broken also?
[10:54] <St-Lemur> Hi, I just upgraded to Feisty from Dapper via Edgy and I'm having gdm trouble. When I start gdm with /etc/init.d/gdm start I get sound and a graphical login screen, but when I enter login and pwd I go to a blank default background, no nautilus, no gnome-panel, no nothing. When I start in failsafe terminal mode I can launch nautilus, gnome-panel, and other apps.
[10:54] <sphinx_> i though u said u had no partitions showing up
[10:54] <lunz__> inflex:thanks,and how about copy and paste?
[10:54] <Rich4> enselic: I found alsa mixer; I'm installing it
[10:54] <autem> with ubuntu yes
[10:54] <inflex> lunz__: select text you want to copy.... middle-click to paste it
[10:54] <autem> windows is fine
[10:55] <lunz__> inflex:i mean using keyboard..
[10:55] <inflex> lunz__: else, good ole  ctrl-k and ctrl-v for copy/paste
[10:55] <novato_br> i did plug mp4 and i cant write or read it! And in few seconds it's unmount the device mp4
[10:56] <novato_br> but when i did sudo bash -c "echo 128 >/sys/block/sdb/device/max_sectors", the problem is over
[10:56] <novato_br> why?
[10:56] <Enselic> lunz__: Ctrl + C, Ctl+ V
[10:56] <klotho> hey, does anyone know where to find power utilization comparisons between chips? I'm wondering how much more power a q6600 uses vs an e6850
[10:56] <sphinx_> lunz, if ur in the terminal it has to be Ctrl+Shift C
[10:56] <Enselic> lunz__: in the terminal:   Ctrl + Shift + C, Ctrl + Shift + V (or Edit Copy/Paste)
[10:56] <klotho> is there a channel for that, or maybe someone here happens to know
[10:56] <Enselic> klotho: try #hardware
[10:57] <autem> thats why I assume something is wrong with ubuntu. kubuntu has the same problem, though on its livecd qparted does suggest I do not have root
[10:57] <blah> hey guys, how do you go from gcc-4.1 to gcc-3.4??
[10:57] <FallenHitokiri> klotho: just download the hardware specs ;)
[10:57] <klotho> thanks Enselic
[10:57] <blah> everytime I try, I get:   gcc: Depends: gcc-4.1 (>= 4.1.1-2) but it is not going to be installed
[10:57] <klotho> FallenHitokiri: where would I find 'em? just intel.com?
[10:57] <Rich4> whats the best music player for ubuntu?
[10:57] <blah> E: Broken packages
[10:57] <blah> E: Broken packages
[10:57] <klotho> I don't know if they show power utilization under load
[10:57] <FallenHitokiri> kloeri: yes
[10:57] <Enselic> Rich4: there are too many to choose between
[10:57] <blah> Rich4: I <3 amarok
[10:58] <FallenHitokiri> klotho: they do IIRC
[10:58] <Rich4> amarok is good? ok
[10:58] <lunz__> sphinx:thanks
[10:58] <FallenHitokiri> Rich4: depends on what you need
[10:58] <smmagic> Hmm
[10:58] <lunz__> Enselic:thanks
[10:58] <FallenHitokiri> Rich4: beep-media-player, rhytembox, mpd,...
[10:58] <smmagic> Capacitor is the burning I think
[10:58] <Johndarc> #join ivalice-serveur
[10:58] <Johndarc> sorry ^^
[10:58] <klotho> FallenHitokiri: iirc?
[10:59] <defrysk> if i recall correctly
[10:59] <Rich4> I seek a player which can and will play music :)
[10:59] <blah> how can I downgrade from gcc-4.1 to gcc-3.4? its not letting me, saying I have broken dependencies which I cannot install
[10:59] <Enselic> Rich4: why not use the default one?
[10:59] <sphinx_> Hey guys, I found a really cool easter egg in ubuntu!
[10:59] <FallenHitokiri> Rich4: beep-media-player is comparable to winamp
[10:59] <Enselic> Rich4: that comes with your Ubuntu installation
[10:59] <Rich4> There is a default?
[10:59] <blah> sphinx_: apt-get moo ?
[10:59] <Enselic> Rich4: Applications -> Sound & VIdeo
[10:59] <Ramy> i cannot remove ldap-account-manager  package because i cannot restart apache 2 , http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/40604/ . can anyone help me please ?!!!
[10:59] <Rich4> aha rhythmbox
[10:59] <sphinx_> Go the terminal and type: sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=8
[11:00] <klotho> FallenHitokiri: what do you mean by IIRC?
[11:00] <sphinx_> super sweet
[11:00] <FallenHitokiri> klotho: if i recall corectly
[11:00] <blah> Thanks Seveas
[11:00] <novato_br> i need juice
[11:00] <preaction_> that was quick
[11:00] <FallenHitokiri> lol
[11:00] <Seveas> preaction_, it was luck :)
[11:00] <Seveas> I just arrived
[11:00] <klotho> ah okay
[11:01] <FallenHitokiri> now my harddrive seems to be working,... when do i see the easer egg?
[11:01] <blah> how can i downgrade to gcc, i cannot even get it installed now!
[11:01] <blah> ugh
[11:01] <Seveas> FallenHitokiri, :p
[11:01] <stupidgirl> o.O
[11:01] <FallenHitokiri> blah: to which version do you want to downgrade?
[11:01] <blah> gcc-3.x
[11:01] <preaction_> FallenHitokiri, when you restart your computer... but make sure you have a live CD handy...
[11:01] <blah> just not 4.x
[11:01] <blah> and I cannot
[11:01] <Seveas> blah, that won't work on Ubuntu
[11:01] <Seveas> since everything is compiled with 4.x
[11:01] <FallenHitokiri> blah: pull the sources and compile it ;)
[11:02] <autem> so can anyone suggest a distro other then ubuntu that will actualy work?
[11:02] <blah> Seveas: No!
[11:02] <blah> ahh, ok, ill see what I can do
[11:02] <FallenHitokiri> preaction_: why?
[11:02] <preaction_> autem, ubuntu works
[11:02] <autem> no it doesn't
[11:02] <FallenHitokiri> preaction_: (that was just a joke... i know dd)
[11:02] <preaction_> FallenHitokiri, because if /dev/sda is your ubuntu root partition, you just trashed it.
[11:02] <autem> it fails to find my harddrives, no one seems to know why
[11:02] <LogixLK> Hello :) Can anybody help me to configure my ATI-Radeon 9600se? I've got this Problem http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/16136/    (Sorry 4 my english, i come from germany ^^)
[11:02] <FallenHitokiri> autem: arch linux, debian, slakcware
[11:02] <Seveas> autem, try changing your attitude if you want people in here to help you
[11:02] <autem> so therefore it is broken
[11:03] <preaction_> autem, presupposition, you assume facts not in evidence.
[11:03] <blah> autem: Raid for the lose.
[11:03] <autem> which is the most user-friendly FallenHitokiri?
[11:03] <FallenHitokiri> LogixLK: you can query me for german support
[11:03] <FallenHitokiri> autem: none of them. try fedora or opensuse
[11:03] <blah> how is ubuntu supposed to have a raid driver for your chipset released 3 months after your ubuntu release? :/
[11:03] <cowbud> or join #ubuntu-de like a hero
[11:03] <autem> I do not use raid setup, blah
[11:03] <FallenHitokiri> blah: kernel update or a self compiled / patched kernel
[11:04] <St-Lemur> Hi, does anyone have some advice for my gdm problem, please?
[11:04] <preaction_> autem, if your hardware doesn't work with fiesty, try a gutsy beta, support in #ubuntu+1
[11:04] <Seveas> LogixLK, that seems to be configured ok already
[11:04] <blah> autem: Sure, but if you have a raid software chipset that is not recognized, I bet its SATA is it not?
[11:04] <LogixLK> But my fps @ glxgears only 1000....
[11:04] <autem> yes its sata
[11:04] <kishan> i just installed ubuntu gusty and open office crashes   when i start any ideas
[11:05] <inflex> did you check the memory?
[11:05] <Seveas> LogixLK, repeat after me: glxgears is not a benchmark
[11:05] <blah> How can I just reinstall gcc-4.1? I do not have a gcc binary anymore, ugh!!!
[11:05] <Seveas> St-Lemur, could you repeat your problem, I didn't see it
[11:05] <FallenHitokiri> kishan: #ubuntu+1
[11:05] <inflex> blah: apt-get install build-essential    I think
[11:05] <Seveas> blah, apt-get install --reinstall gcc-4.1
[11:06] <Seveas> blah, and what inflex said is also a very good idea
[11:06] <blah> Seveas:   build-essential: Depends: gcc (>= 4:4.1.1) but it is not going to be installed
[11:06] <blah>                    Depends: g++ (>= 4:4.1.1) but it is not going to be installed
[11:06] <St-Lemur> Seveas: I just upgraded to Feisty from Dapper via Edgy and when I start gdm with "/etc/init.d/gdm start" I get sound and a graphical login screen, but when I enter login and pwd I go to a blank default background, no nautilus, no gnome-panel, no nothing. When I start in failsafe terminal mode I can launch nautilus, gnome-panel, and other apps.
[11:06] <Dialntone> links2 won't show any pictures on my terminal
[11:06] <FallenHitokiri> blah: apt-get install gcc
[11:06] <preaction_> Dialntone, uhm... it's a terminal browser, it can't show pictures
[11:06] <Seveas> St-Lemur, that doesn't seem to be a gdm problem. Try creating a new user and logging in with that one. If that works, it's time to clean up your gnome profile
[11:06] <Rich4> how do i get mp3 to play in rhythmbox?
[11:07] <blah> FallenHitokiri:   gcc: Depends: gcc-4.1 (>= 4.1.1-2) but it is not going to be installed
[11:07] <blah> E: Broken packages
[11:07] <Dialntone> FallenHitokiri,  says it can
[11:07] <Seveas> !mp3 | Rich4

[11:07] <Rich4> it appears totem movie player is defaulted
[11:07] <sorsis> Rich4: use amarok
[11:07] <Rich4> !mp3
[11:07] <St-Lemur> OK, I'll try that...
[11:07] <FallenHitokiri> preaction_: apt-cache show links2 look at their project page for screenshots ;)
[11:07] <Rich4> thank you ubotu
[11:07] <blah> i keep getting that error
[11:07] <Seveas> blah, apt-get install --reinstall gcc-4.1 <-- if that fails, put the complete output of it on the pastebin
[11:08] <blah> Seveas: k
[11:08] <|thunder> Can I make my USB faster ?
[11:08] <Seveas> |thunder, feed your computer some epo
[11:08] <blah> !pb
[11:08] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:08] <inflex> |thunder: sure, install Firewire ;)
[11:08] <Seveas> inflex, :)
[11:08] <inflex> Now if only I could get this SF@#%@%@% suspend2disk to /resume/
[11:09] <Rich4> Anyone else have trouble with quiet audio?
[11:09] <inflex> every time I try it, it reboots with '/sbin/resume  cannot find libusplash.so.0'
[11:09] <blah> Seveas: http://pastebin.org/4812
[11:09] <Seveas> Rich4, try some death metal if quiteness bothers you :)
[11:09] <|thunder> Rich4; i used to, then i went back to edgy and it was good, now its still good in gutsy
[11:09] <Rich4> speakers turned to maximum and very small sound coming out
[11:09] <sorsis> Rich4: whats you sound card?
[11:09] <preaction_> FallenHitokiri, Dialntone, looks like links2 has two modes: One with X that displays graphics, one in "text mode" that works like lynx
[11:09] <blah> Rich4: from console: sudo alsamixer
[11:10] <inflex> What's mega sad is when even google has no reports
[11:10] <Rich4> it's toshiba stock card :o
[11:10] <FallenHitokiri> preaction_: right. thats exactly why it depends on x and grafic-libs
[11:10] <Seveas> blah, could you pastebin your sources.list ?
[11:10] <Dialntone> i know
[11:10] <blah> Seveas: yes of course
[11:10] <Dialntone> links2 -g launches a gui
[11:10] <sorsis> Rich4: what is stock card? integrated?
[11:10] <preaction_> Dialntone, you're running it inside of X?
[11:10] <Rich4> blah: how to do that
[11:10] <Seveas> inflex, it looks like you don't have usplash in your initramfs
[11:10] <blah> Seveas: http://pastebin.org/4813
[11:11] <Dialntone> im on ubuntu
[11:11] <Rich4> sorsis: comes with computer. I never really looked into it
[11:11] <inflex> Seveas: any way to 'recreate' the initramfs ?
[11:11] <Rich4> though sound is bigger when i listen on windows
[11:11] <inflex> Seveas: or is that done every time a hibernate occurs?
[11:11] <St-Lemur> seveas: I created a new user and logged in with it and got the same result.
[11:11] <Seveas> blah, that sources.list is slightly incomplete but ok-ish, try apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:11] <Seveas> inflex, update-initramfs -u
[11:11] <inflex> thanks Seveas
[11:11] <blah> Seveas: kk, ill try it :x
[11:12] <preaction_> Dialntone, that could mean a few things: Are you physically at the monitor with an X session running or are you using X tunnelling to get an X session? Do you have a desktop? Inside Gnome?
[11:12] <Dialntone> whoa i think it is in the terminal just opened a bigger one
[11:12] <sorsis> Rich4: is it integrated or seperate card? what is your comps exact model number? if you hear the sound but there no other problem you should check mixer.
[11:12] <Seveas> St-Lemur, is the 'lo' interface up, can you ping 127.0.0.1?
[11:12] <hittoenkeli> hi there.. may i ask you a help?
[11:12] <blah> Seveas: It just wants to install some font package, but im installing it anyways.....
[11:12] <Dialntone> preaction_,  what
[11:12] <Znortfl> Good day, my computer does not seem to do it's cronjobs. What can I do?
[11:13] <Rich4> sorsis: mixer is maxed, master sound maxed.. volume turned to max
[11:13] <inflex> Seveas: okay, time to see if that works :D
[11:13] <Seveas> blah, fif you manually install some gcc packages ?
[11:13] <Seveas> hittoenkeli, sure, just ask
[11:13] <Dialntone> im going to ctrl alt backspace to try this out
[11:13] <Rich4> it's something with linux, because when i boot to windows sound is fine
[11:13] <Dialntone> brb
[11:13] <blah> Seveas: I might end up doing just that, just grabbing the deb package and forcing instlal?
[11:13] <sorsis> Rich4: pcm?
[11:13] <Rich4> pcm max
[11:13] <blah> but I did not manually install any previously, no
[11:13] <Seveas> Znortfl, look in /var/log/auth.log, you should see cron opening sessions when cronjobs are supposed to be run
[11:13] <Seveas> blah, neh
[11:14] <hittoenkeli> thanx seveas.. i world like to install ubuntu on my comp with xp.. but i want to delete it completely..
[11:14] <FallenHitokiri> Znortfl: check you logs?
[11:14] <blah> Seveas: What to do now? I just dist-upgraded... :/
[11:14] <Seveas> blah, hang on
[11:14] <blah> Seveas: rgr
[11:14] <St-Lemur> Seveas: I can ping 127.0.0.1 fine. I don't know what the 'lo' interface is; I have a terminal window in the lower right hand corner of my screen, is that it?
[11:14] <hittoenkeli> i was trying to run gparted but it seems not to work
[11:14] <blah> St-Lemur: 'lo' is loopback

[11:15] <Znortfl> Seveas, FallenHitokiri, it says a lot of "CRON" but no trace of the commands I told it to run
[11:15] <FallenHitokiri> vsayikiran: gtalk is AFAIK "only" jabber
[11:15] <inflex> Seveas: and now it works - many many thanks.
[11:15] <FallenHitokiri> Znortfl: how about pasting the part with cron?
[11:15] <blan> Seveas: ?
[11:15] <inflex> Seveas: amazing it hadn't been mentioned anywhere
[11:15] <Seveas> blah, that will remove all gcc packages. Afterwards, install gcc again with apt-get -f install and/or apt-get install gcc
[11:15] <vsayikiran> cowbud: i want to chat in gtalk
[11:15] <Seveas> blan, sorry, i meant blah :)
[11:16] <Znortfl> FallenHitokiri, those are a lot of lines, I don't even understand em.
[11:16] <cowbud> vsayikiran, http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=24073 it is the same as pidgin since they are the same..just follow that badness
[11:16] <blan> Seveas: okay :)
[11:16] <blah> Seveas: trying that now
[11:16] <Znortfl> I edited my cronjobs with gnome-schedule btw, but when I list them with crontab -l I only get "*"'s and then the command. That aint good right?
[11:16] <Seveas> Znortfl, that's good if it has to run every minute
[11:16] <Znortfl> Seveas, that's my intention
[11:16] <vsayikiran> cowbud: gtalk uses jabber protocol and gaim also supports it,, so what settings i need to do?
[11:17] <Seveas> Znortfl, pastebin the output of crontab -l and the last 100-ish lines of /var/log/auth.log
[11:17] <blah> Seveas: this does not look good :[
[11:17] <St-Lemur> seveas: Then yes, I do have the 'lo' interface and I successfully pinged 127.0.0.1. average time about .03 ms
[11:17] <Znortfl> Seveas, okidoki
[11:17] <FallenHitokiri> vsayikiran: loginserver gtalkn, username, password

[11:18] <inflex> (since it has a management port, I can log in and turn it back on without actually physically pressing a button)
[11:19] <Seveas> blah, we'vs got to dig a bit eeper then, but don't worry, we can solve this
[11:19] <Rich4> amarok seems to have boosted audio output
[11:19] <Seveas> blah, apt-get -o"Debug::pkgProblemResolver=1" install gcc
[11:20] <Rich4> any other way to increase it further?
[11:20] <Seveas> blah, and as usual, output on pastebin

[11:21] <Seveas> St-Lemur, darn... that looks ok so I'm out of ideas
[11:22] <Rich4> Is there any way to increase audio output further when master volume is maxed, speaker volume maxed, pcm maxed?
[11:22] <dantje> I'm trying to install Gutsy RC on a Samsung v25 laptop, but only see a black screen ("boot: live acpi=off napic nolapic vga=771") Feisty used to work. What am I missing?
[11:22] <Znortfl> Seveas, is there some way I could let the output of the cronjob flow to a file or smt?
[11:22] <FallenHitokiri> dantje: #ubuntu+1
[11:22] <dantje> ups
[11:25] <soundray> Rich4: not unless you have hardware speaker volume controls

[11:25] <Seveas> blah, meh, apt is failing to provide good debug output -- digging manually required. apt-get install gcc-4.1-base
[11:25] <St-Lemur> Seveas: oh,also, it's not letting me use ctrl-alt-fn to switch to a console, if that helps. I can get to synaptic, would it help to try removing and reinstalling gdm?
[11:26] <Seveas> St-Lemur, I think your problem lies a bit deeper than that unfortunately
[11:26] <Seveas> but it won't hurt to try
[11:26] <St-Lemur> Frack.
[11:26] <soundray> St-Lemur, Seveas: do you want to summarize for me?
[11:27] <Znortfl> My cronjob gives "Could not startup." as output oO
[11:28] <Seveas> soundray, login through gdm produces blank screen unless logging into failsafe mode. lo interface and dbus are wirking

[11:30] <Rich4> what tools is this: "sudo apt-get install build-essential ncurses-dev gettext"

[11:41] <lunz> can i assign hotkeys in keyboard for opening an apllications?
[11:41] <blah> Seveas: nope
[11:41] <astro76> vsayikiran, it should be identical for gaim

[11:42] <Rich4> where can I find this "E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-uname -r" ?
[11:43] <Seveas> Rich4, apt-get install linux-headers-generic
[11:43] <blah> Seveas: trying with 4.1.2 libs from gutsy real quick
[11:43] <Seveas> Rich4, that should install the proper header
[11:43] <blah> Rich4: apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`

[11:43] <hhp21> Hey everyone.. I'm looking for some software for linux that can allow me to control two computers with one mouse and keyboard.. kindof like how Windows does it with Multiplicity. Anyone know of anything?

[11:45] <astro76> vsayikiran, ah ok, try this: Protocol Jabber, User ID user@gmail.com (including @gmail.com), server talk.google.com, port 5223
[11:45] <vsayikiran> astro76: its not working the website you asked me to see
[11:45] <hhp21> blah: Synergy! I knew I had used one before, but I forgot what it was called!
[11:45] <blah> Rich4: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[11:45] <Seveas> blah, that's a better sources.list, use it and run apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:45] <sorsis> Kenny3: what kind of packages those were?
[11:45] <hhp21> Thank you blah, daveinthesky :)
[11:45] <blah> hhp21: np, synergy rocks!
[11:46] <astro76> vsayikiran, also in the advanced tab where you change the port to 5223, check the 2 checkboxes
[11:46] <Seveas> blah, installing linux-headers-generic is better, that'll drag in the `uname -r version` of all kernels when you upgrade to them
[11:46] <vsayikiran> astro76: ok
[11:46] <blah> Seveas: trying now

[11:48] <Seveas> blah, that yelp package is from feisty, so you have at least some feisty packages on your system
[11:48] <blah> Seveas: great....how should I fix this?
[11:48] <vsayikiran> astro76: its not connecting
[11:48] <Seveas> blah, to get out of *that* broken situation you should properly upgrade to feisty
[11:48] <blah> use fiesty and dist-upgrade?
[11:49] <hhp21> blah: Do you remember how to create the configuration file for Synergy?
[11:49] <Seveas> yup, grab that sources.list I gave, replace edgy with feisty and dist-upgrade

[11:51] <Rich4> blah: let me rephrase that..
[11:51] <bla9090> !gutsy | NullNone
[11:51] <ubotu> NullNone: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 18th, 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[11:51] <blah> hhp2k: http://pastebin.org/4823
[11:51] <Seveas> blah, that's because by downgrading libc I accidently broke your system a bit more, I didn't expect that you'd have feisty packages
[11:51] <blah> then you can do like synergys
[11:51] <Seveas> libstdc++ i mean
[11:51] <Rich4> blah: this is what I entered: rich@poor-user:~$ sudo apt-get install linux headers-'uname -r'
[11:51] <blah> Seveas: what should be my next step then int he process?
[11:51] <Seveas> bbl
[11:51] <hhp2k> blah: Excellent
[11:52] <hhp2k> blah: and what's the configuration file's actual name?
[11:52] <blah> .synergy.conf
[11:52] <blah> ~/.synergy.conf
[11:52] <hhp2k> Oh, okay, it's already there
[11:52] <bwayne> is there a package I can install to get SUSE-like gnome menu?
[11:52] <hhp2k> Thanks a lot =D
[11:52] <NullNone> thanks
[11:53] <blah> hhp2k: synergys -f -c ~/.synergy.conf
[11:53] <firsm> Hi, how do I commit changes I've made to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base? update-modules seems to be broken since it executes  /sbin/update-modules.modutils which does not exist
[11:53] <astro76> Rich4, the 'uname -r', that's supposed to be backticks, `uname -r`, better yet use $(uname -r) like this: sudo apt-get install linux headers-$(uname -r)
[11:53] <hhp2k> blah: That's the command to start it?
[11:53] <dbkim> hi all
[11:53] <blah> hhp2k: then synergyc --name "im_the_other_computer" other_computer_ip_or_hostname

[11:54] <astro76> Rich4, and there's a - missing between linux and headers

[11:55] <blah> hhp2k: np
[11:55] <Lindar> I'm retarded, female, and slightly inebriated, so forgive the dumb question: What is the command to write an .iso to CD from the terminal?
[11:55] <St-Lemur> Seveas, soundray I think I fixed it. I went into synaptic to reinstall gnome, and found that, sometime during the upgrade process, gnome had been uninstalled and never reinstalled (hence causing gnome to fail on startup)
[11:56] <blah> Lindar: mkiso
[11:56] <sorsis> Kenny3: if you use ubuntu packages or any other .deb you should be able to use it with other user accounts. if you install it from sourcer or with intaller bin to your home folder, you have to some trick with 'chmod', maybe use 'ln' and edit menus to make it usable with other user accouts easily but even programs compiled and installed from sources it should be possible to install program so that it is usable with every user account easily.
[11:57] <sorsis> Kenny3: if you want you can still make it so that it is onl usable with root or your main user account. it's all about linking and privilidges.
[11:57] <blah> Seveas: got it working, installed libstdc++6 and gcc-4.1-base version of feisty, and went from there
[11:57] <Lindar> Thank you, blah.

[12:03] <Znortfl> Seveas: http://pastebin.com/m3d032ff5 and http://pastebin.com/m50086758 :)
[12:03] <mohkohn_> well its 4h 30 now. So I can calm down a bit
[12:04] <narcarsiss> can you apt-get a torrent program ?
[12:04] <Seveas> Znortfl, starting xmms from cron won't work
[12:04] <mohkohn_> I am using azureus
[12:04] <Znortfl> Seveas, it was just to test if it does anything
[12:04] <mohkohn_> But I am in a netcafe in Phnom Penh
[12:05] <Znortfl> php scripts return "Could not startup." and anything else I tested returns emptyness
[12:05] <Seveas> Znortfl, and the logs indicate that the jobs are being run every minute
[12:05] <dmk> there is torrent support as standard using gnome-bt, and you can apt get azureus too
[12:05] <Seveas> Znortfl, do the php scripts work when run manually?
[12:05] <Znortfl> Seveas, absolutely
[12:05] <narcarsiss> mohkohn thankyou
[12:06] <Seveas> Znortfl, would you mind putting that mail checker script on the pastebin?
[12:06] <Seveas> (passwords removed of course)
[12:06] <Znortfl> It's a simple script using http sockets to read squirrelmail
[12:06] <mohkohn_> At the moment I just have this Symphony OS (which is really a cut down feisty) on the hd
[12:06] <mohkohn_> But I really need gnome
[12:07] <L0GAN> hmm UbuntuStudio uses seperate repo.. :/
[12:07] <Seveas> Znortfl, still it'd be good if I can look at it to spot possible causes of failure
[12:07] <Znortfl> Seveas: http://pastebin.com/m179ad7a7 (dont mind the ugly code)
[12:08] <Seveas> Znortfl, is the error that it can't find http.php?
[12:08] <Znortfl> Seveas. perhaps. Should I specify the absolute path?
[12:09] <Seveas> Znortfl, oh, and the php script uses gtk, won't work from cron
[12:09] <Znortfl> Seveas: why? oO
[12:09] <Seveas> since things launched from cron can't connect to the X server
[12:09] <Znortfl> bummer
[12:10] <Znortfl> Seveas, any way I can make them to? Or an alternative to cron?
[12:10] <Lindar> How do I write an ISO to CD without kiso?
[12:10] <tsukasa> anyone know of a quake-like console for gnome?
[12:10] <Lindar> ..but using the terminal?
[12:10] <Muhammad> I can't enable desktop effects after I restored Xserver to default :(
[12:11] <jetscreamer> tsukasa: you can use any, doesn't have to be gnome-specific
[12:11] <tsukasa> jetscreamer, can you reccommend one?
[12:11] <astro76> Lindar, wodim file.iso
[12:11] <Znortfl> Seveas, I'm back. Had to restart my X server, it hanged
[12:11] <jetscreamer> tsukasa: there are two that i know of ... i forget the names.. yaquake maybe is one
[12:11] <Muhammad> can any one help please :(
[12:11] <pwnt-> Muhammad: what do you need
[12:11] <L0GAN> where are the devs?
[12:11] <Muhammad> pwnt: I can't enable desktop effects after I restored Xserver to default
[12:11] <cowbud> hey do sodimm chips need to be paired?
[12:12] <jetscreamer> no not afaik cowbud
[12:12] <jetscreamer> ymmv
[12:12] <cowbud> wtf does ymmv mean?
[12:12] <jetscreamer> !ymmv
[12:12] <ubotu> ymmv is short for "Your mileage may vary". It means that someone else's experience with compatibility, performance etc. may not necessarily match yours.
[12:12] <jetscreamer> !info tilda
[12:12] <Znortfl> Seveas, so, any way to get a scheduled task to run on an X server?
[12:12] <ubotu> tilda: Linux terminal which behaves like terminals in shooter games. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.09.4-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 37 kB, installed size 180 kB
[12:13] <pwnt-> Muhammad: hm, try back up your /etc/X11/xorg.conf then use 'xorg-config' to redo your xorg. have you ran X before?
[12:13] <jetscreamer> !info yakuake
[12:13] <ubotu> yakuake: a Quake-style terminal emulator based on KDE Konsole technology. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.7.5-4ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 73 kB, installed size 512 kB
[12:13] <Seveas> Znortfl, there are a gazillion mail checker things already, including ones built into thunderbird/evolution or panel applets

[12:13] <hhp2k> Can anyone help me with Synergy
[12:13] <Muhammad> pwnt:  no
[12:13] <hhp2k> ?
[12:13] <skull> hi
[12:13] <Znortfl> Seveas, true. But the sysadmin at my school disabled remote smtp :(
[12:13] <Seveas> Znortfl, you need pop3 or imap for *reading* mail :)
[12:13] <jetscreamer> tsukasa: apt-cache search quake
[12:13] <Muhammad> but why I have to backup it as it will be reset ?
[12:14] <jetscreamer> just in case, Muhammad
[12:14] <Znortfl> Seveas, whatever gave me remote access to the server, he blocked it ;D
[12:14] <pwnt-> Muhammad: are you using irc from full console mode?
[12:14] <Muhammad> pwnt: sorry what this means ?
[12:15] <Seveas> Znortfl, you could make your script use notification-daemon instead of gtk, that'll just cause oppup balloons similar to the 'there are updates' balloons and does not require gtk, hence it can run in the background
[12:15] <pwnt-> Muhammad: try this command. sudo -dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:15] <Znortfl> Seveas, ooooh I like :). Can php access that?
[12:15] <Muhammad> I already done that
[12:16] <Seveas> Znortfl, yes, it just has to write a file
[12:16] <pwnt-> Muhammad: then what happened. paste the error your getting in www.pastebin.com when you try to run X
[12:16] <Znortfl> Seveas, awesome! I'll get into it. Thanks a lot
[12:16] <Lindar> If I'm using a live CD to boot because I don't have a usable primary hdd, am I going to be able to use the same CD-rom from which I've booted to write a CD?
[12:16] <Lindar> It seems I can't mount that particular volume...
[12:17] <Muhammad> pwnt: after the system load again it works fine but I found that the desktop effects not enable so I tried to enable it but I got msg says : " desktop can't be enabled "
[12:18] <Seveas> Znortfl, it has to write to /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d/
[12:19] <Znortfl> Seveas, thanks a lot :). I'll now try to see if I can run a non-visual app with cron
[12:19] <Znortfl> Seveas, oh dangit. A simple helloworld app gave "Could not startup." too
[12:19] <Seveas> Znortfl, is that all output?
[12:19] <pwnt-> Muhammad: hmm. Desktop effects maybe try #ubuntu-effects
[12:20] <Znortfl> Seveas, yes indeed
[12:22] <Muhammad> pwnt: I gone there but no one answered me :(
[12:23] <mohkohn__> Is there a logical reason why my wireless nic AR5007EG does not show up in lspci -v like it does in Vista?
[12:23] <narcarsiss> is there a reason y xmms 1.2.10 volume bar duz nothing ? and duz anyone know a fix
[12:24] <mohkohn__>  I was expecting this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=512828&highlight=atheros
[12:25] <pwnt-> Muhammad: I don't usually enable desktop effects such as compiz or anything else, I usually play games :P therfore I don't use them, sry.
[12:25] <foxiness> Muhammad: what is ur G-card
[12:25] <Pault> hi, this might be a little specific question but here it is: anyone here got an idea how i can link my home directory with my starterbar-gdesklet? thanks in advance =)
[12:25] <Znortfl> Seveas, it does run with php -n it seems
[12:25] <Muhammad> foxiness: Intel 945
[12:26] <bullgard4> What is meant by 'platform device'? Example 1: (Wikipedia) "Linux distributions including Debian GNU/Linux, MontaVista Linux, openSUSE, Yellow Dog Linux, Gentoo Linux and Crux PPC are also available for the Pegasos. Support for the Pegasos as a platform device has been integrated into the Linux kernel mainline as of kernel version 2.6.13. --  Example 2: (Device Manager) "Platform device (pcspkr)".
[12:26] <Rich4> arg I can't get sound to play louder
[12:26] <Rich4> I tried all these googled answers'
[12:26] <Rich4> nothing will fix sound..
[12:29] <foxiness> Muhammad: http://compiz.org/Intel
[12:30] <Znortfl> Seveas, so I just put it in a random filename?
[12:30] <zengen> Is there any way to replaced a damaged package while using the alternate installer iso?
[12:30] <Muhammad> foxiness: hmmmm ok I will check        thx

[12:41] <kicajek> some1 polish user ? :D
[12:41] <quik_> Does anyone know what that might be?
[12:41] <LinuxJuggalo> zetheroo: just use totem, when you insert the dvd if it does not play it, it will automatically ask you to download the codecs to play that type of media
[12:42] <zetheroo> LinuxJuggalo: it did that once .... and everything was working peachy...... but now its not working anymore
[12:42] <foxiness> zetheroo: or go to the hard way and find out where the problem to fix it
[12:42] <zetheroo> LinuxJuggalo: this happens on other machine too
[12:42] <Znortfl> Seveas, I'm totally lost as to how to use this notification daemon and the documentation of it seems to be zero. Could you point me in the right direction?

[01:09] <LivedType> Hi everbody. I have a bit of a complicated question. I have two ethernet devices, eth1 and eth2. eth1 is where my internet comes from. It is in the form of 202.172.122.208/29. It has another IP range, 202.172.122.72/29. What I want to be able to do is masquerade 202.172.122.72/29 to eth2, so that other machines can use those IPs, any ideas on how to do this, I cannot work out my iptables rules.
[01:09] <Seveas> smmagic, there are also some commercial products that work on linux
[01:09] <smmagic> Any other firewalls beside firestarter?
[01:09] <lunz> do i really need that antivirus for ubuntu?
[01:09] <smmagic> Which doesn't work for me
[01:09] <g0dd3ss> does anyone now if theres a media library plugin for xmms kinds like the one winamp has?

[01:11] <smmagic> Spam!
[01:11] <g0dd3ss> lol
[01:11] <Seveas> gee, mudkips is back
[01:12] <FallenHitokiri> *plonk*
[01:12] <narcarsiss> whats fluxbox ?
[01:12] <philip_> Question: If I have ubuntu and vista installed can I run vista some how within ubuntu
[01:12] <ephracis> does anyone ever click those links?
[01:12] <Seveas> FallenHitokiri, behave...
[01:12] <FallenHitokiri> narcarsiss: a window manager?
[01:12] <narcarsiss> tnx
[01:12] <FallenHitokiri> Seveas: sorry?
[01:12] <Seveas> this is not usenet, there is no plonking
[01:12] <ephracis> philip_: either you dual boot or you can use vmware
[01:12] <beni> whats mudkips?
[01:12] <quik_> "Disk /dev/sda doesn't contain a valid partition table" what does this mean?
[01:12] <FallenHitokiri> Seveas: old script that automaticaly sends a plonk in irssi,... sorry
[01:12] <beni> quik_: That your Partition Is corrupted
[01:12] <tsukasa> how do i make a folder have an icon?
[01:13] <beni> !fdisk | quik_
[01:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fdisk - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:13] <Seveas> quik_, exactly what it says, there is no valid partition table on the disk
[01:13] <beni> !chkdisk | quik_
[01:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chkdisk - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:13] <Seveas> FallenHitokiri, please disable talking scripts
[01:13] <quik_> beni: so even though I can mount that disk and browse it with afp?
[01:13] <FallenHitokiri> Seveas: already done (the first channels that has a problem with it ;) )
[01:14] <beni> quik_: you can mount this partition? Then probably some files are corrupted
[01:14] <philip_> ephracis: to my understanding with dual boot I can run only one at a time....and with vmware I can run an ISO with a virtual machine.....can I run some how the olready installed vista (on a different partition) in my linux?
[01:14] <FallenHitokiri> Seveas: just btw. don't you think you should at least kick him for useless playing with this stupid bot and flooding the channel?
[01:14] <narcarsiss> is that jave based glass desktop avail for download yet?
[01:14] <narcarsiss> cant find it in google
[01:15] <FallenHitokiri> narcarsiss: just use compiz / beryl stuff, looks the same way ;)
[01:15] <Seveas> FallenHitokiri, loleeta has been banned and the bot is not stupid
[01:15] <FallenHitokiri> Seveas: the bot could at least send answers as query.
[01:15] <narcarsiss> but for beryl you have to have ATI drivers installed ?
[01:15] <lunz> who is loleeta?
[01:15] <mc44> narcarsiss: depends which card you have
[01:15] <Seveas> FallenHitokiri, and you could try not to go offtopic
[01:15] <FallenHitokiri> Seveas: don't you think it is a bit disturbing to have this many lines _and_ windows bashing?
[01:15] <ephracis> philip_: well I have not done that but I belive that you can use a physical drive as the drive in vmware (usually you create a virtual drive which is just a file in the "real" drive).
[01:15] <quik_> beni: this is my output from sudo fdisk -l
[01:16] <narcarsiss> the last time i installed ATI drivers my desktop shit its self  ATI X1650XT
[01:16] <lunz> opss..sorry..got it
[01:16] <smmagic> Umm, to install smoothwall do I need to burn an image?
[01:16] <FallenHitokiri> Seveas: right. i'm quiet.
[01:16] <ephracis> philip_: register (for free) at the vmware website to get the registration code, then install vmware server using "Add/Remove" under Applications and there you can play around using vmware.
[01:16] <mc44> narcarsiss: yes, you need the ati fglrx drivers to use beryl with that card
[01:16] <narcarsiss> shit i am not game to install them again
[01:17] <whyking> hi
[01:17] <kaw22> hello
[01:17] <philip_> ephracis: Ive been having some problems with installing so I installed virtualbox, will it work as well?
[01:17] <whyking> why is pyqwt5 present in debian but not yet in ubuntu? its been around for a while..
[01:17] <beni> !fsck | quik_
[01:17] <ubotu> quik_: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[01:17] <whyking> and
[01:17] <whyking> can I just use the debian package?
[01:17] <kaw22> anybody who can tell me how to give the apache user/group rights to execute scripts on the server?
[01:17] <beni> quik_: this is what i meant
[01:17] <smmagic> So do I?
[01:18] <jeroen__> brb
[01:18] <narcarsiss> i downloaded them off the ati website created a custome pakege ubuntu/7.04 through the  run script then installed them ran ati config --initial etc.. and it shit it's self couldent start X server soo i dont know if it is wise
[01:18] <ephracis> philip_: never used so I do not know. What you want to do is to use a physical partition as the disc inside the virtual machine, right? Just make sure that whatever application you use (may it be virtualbox or vmware) supports that.
[01:18] <Hnico> Hello everybody, I would like to know if there is going to be any raid support in the 7.10 release of ubuntu (I mean during the installation process)
[01:18] <lunz> you mean beryl doesnt work with nvidia Ti4200?
[01:18] <Psi-Jack> heh, anyone here use a USB headset with volume controls on it? I'm trying to get the volume control for my USB heaset to work with the Headset volume, instead of the master volume of the primary sound card. ;)
[01:18] <quik_> beni: anyway, the root of my issue is that after a reboot, the disk that was sda might be sdc
[01:18] <quik_> lunz: it does, I used it last night
[01:19] <narcarsiss> 7.04 has raid suppor i'm usine 2 x 10k 74 raptors in fiesty and it works fine
[01:19] <lunz> quik:but mine is not working properly..
[01:19] <beni> lunz: rule of thumb Nvidia + Ubuntu = Works, ATI + Ubuntu = Works most of the time
[01:19] <quik_> lunz: http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/enable_compizfusion_in_ubuntu_feisty/
[01:19] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi
[01:19] <beni> lunz did you install the restricted nvidia drivers?
[01:19] <narcarsiss> dont know why it dosent work for you
[01:19] <Hnico> narcasiss : yes I know, you can also use mdadm but there is no raid option during the installation process
[01:19] <lunz> beni : yes
[01:19] <philip_> ephracis: Thanks....will give it a go
[01:20] <narcarsiss> mine auto configures it ?
[01:20] <lunz> beni:already enable it
[01:20] <beni> lunz so where is the problem with compiz?
[01:20] <beni> oh, beryl of course
[01:20] <Hnico> narcarsiss : I'm speaking of software raid, not hardware raid
it says those i have already installed...
[01:20] <beni> quik_: the partition change their names after reboot?
[01:20] <narcarsiss> ahh ok sorry guys for false hope :P
[01:21] <quik_> beni: yeah
[01:21] <beni> quik_: I experienced this with my USB Harddisk, too but not with "Real" SATA HDDs
[01:21] <ravih1>  <FallenHitokiri>it says those i have already installed...
[01:21] <lunz> beni:doesnt work with compiz
[01:21] <quik_> beni: did you discover a cause?

[01:22] <faLUCE>  hi. do you know any audio APE converter? thnks
[01:22] <lunz> beni:all my windows doesnt have min/max icon when i switch to compiz or berly
[01:22] <beni> quik_: nope, sometimes it is /dev/sde and sometimes /dev/sdb ..
[01:22] <quik_> beni: how strange
[01:22] <quik_> it makes mountable afp volumes really hard
[01:22] <lunz> beni: and it doesnt work with animated wallpaper too..
[01:23] <beni> lunz: Click on the Beryl Icon -> Reload Window Decorator, this should give you them back. Otherwise, change the theme and look if it works
[01:23] <smmagic> Is beryl good?
[01:23] <narcarsiss> back to that java GUI is beryl the same as in looks the java one sounds better than beryl has any one seen them ?
[01:23] <lunz> beni:i will try again for last time..
[01:24] <beni> smmagic: Beryl is good, I've been using it since old Suse days , but the new Compiz Fusion is way better, but dunno if it's released yet
[01:24] <lunz> beni:i switch to compiz and my terminal went all white..!
[01:25] <quik_> beni: otherwise, I've got a sweet new NAS / torrent box!
[01:25] <smmagic> Should I try it then?
[01:25] <bullgard4> What is the function of the directory /sys/devices/platform?
[01:25] <beni> smmagic: Of course, just look if it fits your needs
[01:25] <narcarsiss> dosent ubuntu come pre packed wit beryl ?
[01:26] <fyrestrtr> narcarsiss: gutsy comes with compiz+fusion
[01:26] <narcarsiss> i'm fiesty
[01:26] <fyrestrtr> then no :)
[01:26] <quik_> the ubuntu release names are so stupid
[01:26] <lunz> beni:i switch to compiz and my terminal went all white and i cant see all the words amd my workspace decrease from 5 - 1..!
[01:26] <quik_> lunz: did you check the link I set you?
[01:27] <beni> narcarsiss: feisty :)
[01:27] <quik_> I used it last night for the same video card and it was perfect
[01:27] <Psi-Jack> Hmm

[01:31] <mc44> narcarsiss: flash isn't compiled from x64, because it's closed source and adobe didn't do it
[01:32] <narcarsiss> god i hate adobe
[01:32] <lunz> quik:thanks..doing it now...hopefully it doesnt crash my xserver again...(5 time crashed)

[01:41] <Znortfl> I am totally lost here. How can I get ubuntu to display those fancy bubbles with my php script?
[01:41] <Shapeshifter> mc44: Thanks!
[01:42] <neopsyche> thanks
[01:45] <Seiver`Damross> anyone???
[01:45] <brobostigon> what??
[01:45] <kaw22> Seiver`Damross: mysql
[01:45] <LivedType> Hi everbody. I have a bit of a complicated question. I have two ethernet devices, eth1 and eth2. eth1 is where my internet comes from. It is in the form of 202.172.122.208/29. It has another IP range, 202.172.122.72/29. What I want to be able to do is route/bridge 202.172.122.72/29 to eth2, so that other machines can use those IPs, any ideas on how to do this?
[01:46] <Shapeshifter> If I connect to a vpn, not all connections will go over the vpn server, right? so it doesn't actually act like a proxy, does it?
[01:48] <jeroen__> well dudes I'm gonna stop doing games on linux
[01:48] <jeroen__> windows games on linux that is
[01:48] <jeroen__> so far NONE of em worked!
[01:49] <brobostigon> we need more native linux games
[01:49] <jeroen__> indeed
[01:49] <Seiver`Damross> ya im running the server and i dont know how to get into it and add a user
[01:49] <brobostigon> ssh / adduser
[01:49] <lamego> jeroen__, there are not as much as on windows, but there are a lot already ;)
[01:49] <WaltzingAlong> Seiver`Damross: useradd
[01:49] <Seiver`Damross> for MYSQL
[01:49] <jeroen__> yeah but not the games I like
[01:50] <annaimkonki> jow do i get video CODECS???
[01:50] <annaimkonki> all in one....
[01:50] <lamego> jeroen__, that are a few games for every time, open source ones, just check the repositories, and getdeb
[01:50] <lamego> ops, every type
[01:50] <jeroen__> I wanna play The Sims (the first one....just love building the house), GTA: Vice City and Need4Speed (all of em)
[01:51] <WaltzingAlong> jeroen__: ok.
[01:51] <jeroen__> but somehow, I can not get vice city to work.......but others play it.
[01:51] <Seiver`Damross> i want to add a god user to MYSQL
[01:52] <WaltzingAlong> we all want a god user
[01:52] <Seiver`Damross> i cant seem to log into phpmyadmin with root
[01:52] <lamego> Seiver`Damross, that is a mysql help question, and it is not a "god", it is called mysql administration user
[01:52] <annaimkonki> ViDeO CoDeCs.... what should i download/install....
[01:52] <lamego> Seiver`Damross, either try google, for the mysql manual, or try a mysql question channel ;)
[01:53] <lunz> quak_:already done,should i restart the xserver?
[01:53] <Seiver`Damross> i have and what they say dosent work so the system isent likeing what im doing, i cant get into the MYSQL shell
[01:53] <jeroen__> gonna try some other stuff now
[01:54] <lamego> Seiver`Damross, mysql -u root -p password
[01:54] <lamego> if you didn't set one, there is no password, that is the default install on ubuntu
[01:54] <lamego> so just use: mysql -u root
[01:54] <Seiver`Damross> isent working
[01:55] <ipx> what error?
[01:55] <lamego> Seiver`Damross, if it is giving privilege deined, then, you need to reset your mysql root password
[01:55] <lamego> again, check the mysql for that, it does work, reseting the password
[01:59] <jeroen__> dudes where can I find the "~/.wine/config"
[02:00] <LivedType> ~/.wine :)
[02:00] <jeroen__> yeah but where is that?
[02:00] <ipx> its simple, actually jeroen__
[02:00] <jeroen__> I really can't seem to find it anywhere
[02:00] <xjkx> jeroen__, ~ represents your /home
[02:00] <ipx> ~/ <- Thats your home dir, ex /home/yourname/
[02:01] <smash__> ~/.wine/config is now deprecated.  For configuration either use
[02:01] <smash__> winecfg or regedit HKCU\Software\Wine
[02:01] <ipx> and the . before wine in .wine/ is a hidden folder
[02:01] <jeroen__> ok ok
[02:03] <Lewisbeech> Can someone help me with a Ubuntu Studio problem please?
[02:03] <thedonvaughn> Lewisbeech, ask your question specifcally.  don't ask to ask
[02:03] <neopsyche> Hi, where would be a good place to find operators for a chanel for an ubuntu related project?
[02:03] <kane77> how do I set the gateway address?
[02:04] <pastyhermit> and Dell didnt fix it despite the lawsuite
[02:04] <pastyhermit> they just replaced my mobo with a similar one that suffers from the same problem
[02:04] <jeroen__> godverdomme
[02:04] <jeroen__> man ow man
[02:04] <thedonvaughn> kane77, system -> Administration -> Networking or /etc/network/interfaces
[02:04] <Lewisbeech> I installed Ubuntu Studio but I'm getting a "Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface.....)" when I boot up the pc. Any ideas on what this means and how to go around fixing it?
[02:04] <jeroen__> now vice city is frickin giving me a hard time about some 640x480 videomode not found
[02:05] <jeroen__> how do I set it to boot at 800x600 or higher?
[02:05] <tech0007> question, how do i know the users that are currently logged in? i'm on the console.
[02:05] <kane77> thedonvaughn, hmm but how do I apply those settings, because what I set in System -> Administration -> Network doesnt show in ifconfig output...
[02:05] <jeroen__> I am really getting pissed off!
[02:05] <thedonvaughn> kane77, /etc/init.d/networking restart
[02:05] <jeroen__> I want it to work!
[02:05] <thedonvaughn> kane77, or reboot
[02:05] <mc44> tech0007: users
[02:05] <beni> Lewisbeech: Your graphic card is not set up properly
[02:06] <pastyhermit> jernster, set the vga flag when you boot
[02:06] <thedonvaughn> kane77, sudo in front of that command ;)
[02:06] <pastyhermit> vga=790 try that
[02:06] <beni> !X | Lewisbeech
[02:06] <ubotu> Lewisbeech: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:06] <tech0007> mc44....thanks!
[02:06] <kane77> thedonvaughn, thanx...
[02:06] <smash__> tech0007: who
[02:06] <tech0007> smash...superb
[02:06] <jeroen__> I think I'm just gonna stick to windows when it comes to gaming
[02:07] <jeroen__> cause since the beginning I tried gaming on linux...........(which I started about a year ago) I just can't get any damned game to work!
[02:07] <Cubey> jeroen__, best way to do it.
[02:07] <jeroen__> And I am really getting pissed now
[02:07] <smash__> did you try winecfg?
[02:07] <Lewisbeech> ubotu: Just done as you asked and it gave the same error ,essage
[02:07] <jeroen__> yeah but I can't change the resolution there
[02:07] <pastyhermit> jeroen__, sounds like the 't00l' for the job
[02:08] <Cubey> in the long run you're better off rebooting to play games or just have an extra PC
[02:08] <brobostigon> unreal tournament works perfectly on mine, using wine.
[02:08] <tech0007> jeroen....did you try native linux games? they're sort of equal w/ windows
[02:08] <jeroen__> I wanna play Vice City.........that's not a native linux game
[02:08] <raman> ram
[02:08] <jeroen__> and it's really giving me ya bad mood now
[02:08] <tech0007> jeroen...yep
[02:09] <raman> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[02:09] <Cubey> jeroen__, so set up a dual boot system ;)
[02:09] <Cubey> no headaches about making the games work. just have to reboot to windows
[02:09] <jeroen__> I've been trying to get Vice City to work on linux for about a year now. and still I can't get it to work, while others got it working
[02:09] <jeroen__> yeah but I don't wanna reboot to windows
[02:09] <Cubey> you can disable the network connection in windows if you don't want windows online
[02:10] <jeroen__> I wanna work in linux as much as possible
[02:10] <Cubey> jeroen__, you have 3 options then: make games work in linux, get a second pc, or don't play games ;)
[02:10] <jeroen__> well if the damned Vice City would just play along
[02:10] <smash__> jeroen: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=3050
[02:11] <smash__> jeroen: f you get this kind of crash and your resolution is set down to nonsense, execute the command "xrandr -s 0" on a Konsole window or a XTerm.
[02:11] <pastyhermit> I have a newbie question
[02:11] <smash__> was a simple google task...
[02:11] <tech0007> =-O
[02:11] <pastyhermit> I installed ubuntu 7.10 RC1 from the alternative CD, I used LVM and used the entire disk
[02:11] <Cubey> you may be able to get it to play but it may act screwy. i've been able to get one or more games working in linux but they are screwey in one way or another
[02:11] <pastyhermit> but I have to put windows on this machine to verify a problem.  How do I resize my partition, GParteD liveCD couldnt modify it.
[02:11] <alecf> What graphics card would be best for useing compiz fusion that costs around 30?
[02:12] <jeroen__> fuck Vice City
[02:12] <jeroen__> kanker spel
[02:12] <tobias__> Is there ANY way that I can run a cron job that uses the X server?
[02:12] <mc44> !ohmy | jeroen__
[02:12] <ubotu> jeroen__: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:12] <pastyhermit> alecf, I get best results with NVidia
[02:12] <attunix> Hi. How do I import a non-DVI file into Kino?
[02:13] <alecf> pastyhermit: Yeah ive heard Nvidia are the best but im am totaly confused as to which ones
[02:13] <ompaul> attunix, #kubuntu
[02:13] <attunix> ompaul: why?
[02:13] <ompaul> is it not a kubuntu program?
[02:13] <attunix> ompaul: it's not a KDE app :P
[02:13] <attunix> ompaul: It's more GNOMEish
[02:14] <ompaul> attunix, ohh and no g drat!
[02:14] <attunix> ompaul: :P
[02:15] <bullgard4> What is the function of the directory /sys/devices/platform?
[02:15] <heterodox> where are the plugins for xchat in ubuntu?
[02:15] <tech0007> how do i shutdown a remote pc thru ssh?
[02:15] <brobostigon> shutdown -h now
[02:15] <heterodox> tech0007, as root (or sudo) halt
[02:17] <attunix> wow the Ubuntu chat is slow today
[02:18] <ikonia> it is a blessing
[02:20] <jeroen__> my goodnes. is it in any way possible to get wine to act like it's opperating in 800x600 or higher
[02:20] <ikonia> jeroen__: the guys in #winehq have got tons of experience setting up wine in specific configs
[02:20] <jeroen__> when starting it I mean
[02:20] <jeroen__> ok
[02:20] <jeroen__> cool
[02:21] <Lewisbeech> very stupid question but who here would choose linux over windows and mac? (I personally love linux)
[02:21] <ikonia> Lewisbeech: thats not relevant to this channel
[02:21] <mohkohn> I must really want ubuntu. 9 hours downloading time with bittorrent
[02:21] <ikonia> Lewisbeech: off topic chatter in #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:21] <moDumass> hey all, i just installed automatix2 because well, it exists. so its "updating my sources list" and its stops on
[02:21] <brobostigon> i like unix generally.
[02:21] <ikonia> !automatix
[02:21] <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)
[02:21] <moDumass> oh, looks like its sorted itself out
[02:22] <ikonia> moDumass: we don't support automatix systems
[02:22] <ikonia> moDumass: by using automatix you risk losing your community support
[02:22] <mechdave> Howdy all, does anyone know where I can get the Gnome weather applet for ubuntu? I can't seem to find it at all with google!
[02:22] <Bizzeh> hey, if i want to dual boot vista and ubuntu on the same hdd, which do you recomend i install first?
[02:22] <moDumass> sorry man, i didnt really know what it was, is it not just an installer?
[02:22] <pmjdebruijn> hi
[02:22] <jrib> mechdave: right click -> add to panel
[02:23] <pmjdebruijn> anybody here using the tg3 driver?
[02:23] <ikonia> moDumass: read the link ubotu said to learn more about automatix
[02:23] <moDumass> its cool, i wont use it, why cant i play wmv files in linux
[02:23] <princess^> i can't understand how u can work with ubuntu
[02:23] <tech0007> bizzeh...vista then ubuntu
[02:23] <pmjdebruijn> does network access seems slow for you with Gutsy (it was fine for me with Feisty)
[02:23] <ikonia> moDumass: because you've not insalled the w32 codecs
[02:23] <princess^> all the time switch off and restart by it self
[02:23] <princess^> grrrrr
[02:23] <kane77> is it possible to convert mpeg2 to ogg? ffmpeg only converts audio...
[02:23] <pmjdebruijn> princess^: all the time
[02:23] <Bizzeh> tech0007: any particular reason?
[02:23] <zanner> hello princess
[02:23] <Lewisbeech> I have a widescreen laptop but i dont know what the resolution is. How do I find it out so that ubuntu looks "correctly displayed" on my laptop?
[02:23] <princess^> ty pmjdebruijn
[02:24] <princess^> hello zanner
[02:24] <pmjdebruijn> Lewisbeech: look it up in the manual
[02:24] <moDumass> ikonia i have indeed
[02:24] <jrib> moDumass: you can do everything automatix does without automatix
[02:24] <moDumass> well, some wmv files it can play
[02:24] <ikonia> moDumass: then its probably the wrong codec for the others
[02:24] <mechdave> jrib: Cool Thanks.
[02:24] <tech0007> grub can read vista mbr so u can dual boot...vista doesnt recognize grub :(
[02:24] <pmjdebruijn> princess^: Ubuntu works just fine here
[02:25] <princess^> ;) well where are u
[02:25] <princess^> i will bring u my pc to fix it
[02:25] <tobias__> My cronjobs fail to connect to the x server, how can I make them connect properly?
[02:25] <pmjdebruijn> princess^: you probably dealing with crappy hardware or a crappy driver
[02:25] <zanner> from france
[02:25] <ikonia> tech0007 vista is unaware of anything non-windows related
[02:25] <XsteelWolf> is there a way to clear ram memory?
[02:25] <princess^> or maybe some drivers?
[02:25] <pmjdebruijn> XsteelWolf: turn off the power
[02:25] <jrib> tobias__: did you set the DISPLAY variable?
[02:26] <Bizzeh> can i do what i used to do with xp? and install grub to the partition, and dd the 512 bytes of boot sector from the hdd, and put it in C:\ and get vistas loader to boot that?
[02:26] <kane77> XsteelWolf, reboot might be one...
[02:26] <princess^> well i go t my server to fix things there be back later when restart again
[02:26] <princess^> xxxx
[02:26] <tobias__> jrib: is set it to ":0", but I dont know if that is correct
[02:26] <tech0007> bizzeh...not sure about that
[02:26] <XsteelWolf> i need to do it without restarting
[02:27] <jrib> tobias__: 'echo DISPLAY' in your X session
[02:27] <tech0007> bizzeh...i used to dual boot w/ xp, but i dont remember doing that
[02:27] <pmjdebruijn> XsteelWolf: why do you "need" to clear your memory
[02:27] <XsteelWolf> [root@ientoo etc] # dmesg | grep memory
[02:27] <XsteelWolf> Freeing initrd memory: 1141k freed
[02:27] <XsteelWolf> Total HugeTLB memory allocated, 0
[02:27] <XsteelWolf> Freeing unused kernel memory: 168k freed
[02:27] <tobias__> jrib, you mean "echo $DISPLAY" ?
[02:27] <XsteelWolf> only a bit of memory is left
[02:27] <pmjdebruijn> XsteelWolf: so?
[02:27] <jrib> tobias__: yeah
[02:27] <Raskall> tech0007: that's the way to do it if you do not want to mess with mbr
[02:27] <pmjdebruijn> XsteelWolf: 'free'
[02:27] <tobias__> jrib, its ":0"
[02:28] <pmjdebruijn> XsteelWolf: that has very little to do with your real free memory
[02:28] <jrib> tobias__: pastebin your crontab
[02:28] <XsteelWolf> from that,what'
[02:28] <XsteelWolf> what's the exact free memory im having
[02:28] <pmjdebruijn> XsteelWolf: why do you care?
[02:28] <pmjdebruijn> XsteelWolf: there is a 'free' command that will tell you
[02:28] <kane77> XsteelWolf, free -m
[02:28] <tobias__> jrib: http://pastebin.com/m1b6c6c80
[02:29] <XsteelWolf>  total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
[02:29] <XsteelWolf> Mem:           946        405        541          0         38        287
[02:29] <XsteelWolf> free 541
[02:29] <XsteelWolf> hmm..
[02:29] <XsteelWolf> im trying to convert a rmvb file to flv and it keeps hanging.. using up quite a no. of cpu cycles
[02:29] <XsteelWolf> wonder if its ram problem or what
[02:29] <EnderW> tried to install Ubuntu 7.10RC and it messed up the boot entries, had to do a rewrite of the MBR. whom do I tell? how can I help getting it fixed?
[02:29] <Bo^Dick> hi
[02:29] <pmjdebruijn> XsteelWolf: probably not
[02:29] <Spartan> How do you get a serial mouse and a PS/2 pointer device to work simultaneously in Ubuntu 6.10?
[02:30] <pmjdebruijn> XsteelWolf: maybe a bug in the rmvb decoder
[02:30] <Bo^Dick> i've localized that this file does indeed exist! /media/disk-1/boot/grub/stage1
[02:30] <zanner> i m looking for a game called xpilot. I played this game at the time of university. But google don't find it.
[02:30] <XsteelWolf> used to work fine earlier on..
[02:30] <tech0007> EnderW.....launchpad.net
[02:30] <badelvis> i have 7.04 and ac 97 but no sound. what can i do? i cannot find help in the ubuntu wiki
[02:30] <Bo^Dick> but when i write "find / media/disk-1/boot/grub/stage1" from the grub prompt it says "File not found" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[02:31] <Bo^Dick> pleeeeez enlight me what the F*CK is going on
[02:31] <pmjdebruijn> Bo^Dick: relax
[02:31] <tobias__> jrib, any ideas?
[02:31] <pmjdebruijn> Bo^Dick: maybe /boot is on a seperate partition?
[02:31] <jrib> tobias__: this is tobias__'s crontab?
[02:32] <jrib> tobias
[02:32] <tobias__> the actual username on my system is "tobias"
[02:32] <Bo^Dick> i've only got one ext3 partition besides the swap
[02:33] <jrib> tobias__: does 'DISPLAY=:0 gedit' work?
[02:33] <Bo^Dick> it appears to be /dev/sda from the gnome partition manager
[02:33] <newguy> hey there, can i upgrade fiesty to gutsy with the update manager?
[02:33] <badelvis> i followed the instructions from ubuntu wiki for diagnosis. this is the result http://nopaste.info/ae423a1187.html
[02:33] <tech0007> newguy....yep
[02:33] <tobias__> jrib, yes, it does
[02:34] <newguy> sweet, and its due out in 3 days right?
[02:34] <Bo^Dick> sorry, correction here, it's /dev/sda2
[02:34] <tech0007> newguy...right man
[02:34] <mechdave> Bo^Dick: That will never work as you haven't even loaded the kernel yet at that stage
[02:34] <jrib> tobias__: as a cronjob right?
[02:34] <tobias__> oh, sec
[02:34] <newguy> rock on, rock on!
[02:34] <Bo^Dick> i've running the ubuntu live cd
[02:34] <tech0007> newguy...well it says 4 days to go on the ubuntu site :-D
[02:34] <Bo^Dick> that's supposed to be able to restore grub right
[02:35] <dmace> i've attached an external lcd monitor to my laptop to test dual head in 7.10RC. my laptops' native res is 1680x1050, and the external LCD is 1280x1024. the only mod i've made to my xorg.conf file is to add a Virtual section to set the desktop size to 3360x1050. when i connected the monitor and booted up, my laptop's resolution seems correct, but gnome/metacity is constrained to a small portion of the screen (like, the panel extends only
[02:35] <dmace>  to about 3/4 across the screen, and maximizing stuff fills up only that area). displayconfig-gtk and the screen resolution applet are saying my max res are something strange like 1280x950 (cant remember or sure and can't get to the applet now). the external LCD is not getting a signal. i tried xrandr to just turn off the external lcd, and now the panel etc aren't even visible on the laptop LCD, and I can't seem to get things back to no
[02:35] <dmace> rmal. wth?
[02:35] <tobias__> jrib, 50 secs and we'll find out :)
[02:35] <cherva> anyone succesfuly mounted nokia 5500 ? (Symbian S60 v3 )
[02:36] <tobias__> jrib: does not work as a cronjob :(
[02:36] <tech0007> dmace....#ubuntu+1
[02:36] <mechdave> Bo^Dick: You need to load the rescue image on the install disk and then mount your root file system and then chroot it to / and then you can re install grub from there
[02:36] <jeroen__> dudes somehow my XOrg isn't configured properly
[02:36] <jeroen__> how do I config that
[02:36] <dmace> tech0007: huh?
[02:36] <jrib> tobias__: pastebin the error you get
[02:36] <xhaker> http://digg.com/linux_unix/PIC_The_Sickest_Ubuntu_booth_you_have_ever_seen/who
[02:36] <xhaker> http://digg.com/linux_unix/PIC_The_Sickest_Ubuntu_booth_you_have_ever_seen
[02:37] <Bo^Dick> mechdave: would that be as simple as "mount /dev/sda2 /"?
[02:37] <dmace> tech0007: ah, for 7.10?
[02:37] <tobias__> jrib: "cannot open display" and the standard "--help for help"
[02:37] <mechdave> Bo^Dick: No, your rescue image should automatically mount your file system on /mnt/sysimage (I think)
[02:38] <tech0007> dmace...yep
[02:38] <Bo^Dick> mechdave: i do indeed have access to my old filesystem on /dev/sda2 where it is visible in /media/disk-1
[02:39] <jrib> tobias__: standard "--help for help"   what do you mean?  where do you see this?
[02:39] <maxiounet> #UBUNTU/FR
[02:39] <tobias__> jrib: I piped the output of the cronjob to /etc/gedit.log
[02:39] <mechdave> Bo^Dick: You have got the rescue image up already?
[02:39] <maxiounet> MERDE
[02:39] <jrib> tobias__: can you pastebin the whole thing?
[02:39] <maxiounet> comment on fait pour aller sur le chat francais
[02:39] <jrib> maxiounet: /join #ubuntu-fr
[02:40] <tobias__> jrib, sure, but its only 2 lines
[02:40] <martin__> anyone? I installed bubuntu blue theme on my ubuntu desktop but its still brown when I log in - specifically - between gdm loginscreen and loading desktop
[02:40] <tobias__> jrib: http://pastebin.com/m3052c0e2 there you go
[02:40] <Lewisbeech> Ok I've found out my laptop resolution but I'm getting a very nasty display when I select it. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/lewisbee/Screenshot.png < Screenshot
[02:40] <ikonia> martin__: the settings are applied as you login
[02:40] <maxiounet> merci
[02:40] <Lewisbeech> How do I fix it?
[02:41] <k31th> am I right in thinking no matter how much ram I have Linux will use it all and free it up as it needs it for other things? (this box has no swap partition)
[02:41] <Lewisbeech> sorry for all of the questions i'm asking. i'm new to linux
[02:41] <ikonia> k31th: linux will use X for real time X for cache
[02:41] <k31th> ikonia: X ?
[02:41] <ikonia> k31th: $x a variable
[02:41] <k31th> ok
[02:41] <jrib> tobias__: does it work after you do 'xhost +local:' it a terminal?
[02:42] <mohkohn> what can I do to make azureus download gutsy faster?
[02:42] <k31th> so it will show the real time cache as used memory ?
[02:42] <martin__> ikonia, I have logged in several times ... I dont know how to fix it ... screen goes brown during login process, although I have blubuntu theme .. I need to change some background .png somewhere ??
[02:42] <tobias__> jrib: "Bad hostname +local"
[02:42] <ikonia> KenSentMe: no it will assign X$ to user space memory, $x to system cache
[02:42] <mechdave> Bo^Dick: No rescue disk on my dvd either!!
[02:42] <k31th> ikonia: if i type free it seems to be using alot of memory.
[02:42] <XsteelWolf> does ubuntu gnome comes with fingerprinting tools?
[02:42] <jrib> tobias__: with the :
[02:43] <mechdave> Bo^Dick: what is the error you get when you try and boot Grub?
[02:43] <tobias__> jrib: oh my god, it worked :D
[02:43] <k31th> free: 465876      used: 49612
[02:43] <ikonia> k31th yes, thats the memory being assigned to caching
[02:43] <tobias__> jrib: do I have to execute this command every time I log in?
[02:43] <k31th> sorry the other way round
[02:43] <k31th> used 465876      free 49612
[02:44] <jrib> tobias__: ok, weird.  It should just work if it is tobias's X session and his crontab
[02:44] <badelvis> how can i get sound running on  ubuntu 7.04?
[02:44] <jrib> !sound > badelvis (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:44] <badelvis> !sound
[02:44] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[02:44] <Ensiferum> hello, do new software packages become available for older versions of Ubuntu?
[02:45] <tobias__> jrib: no, its ok now my mail is being checked every minute now. Question though: do I have to execute "xhost +local:" every time I start up?
[02:45] <tech0007> ensiferum...except for LTS
[02:45] <Lewisbeech> Ok I've found out my laptop resolution but I'm getting a very nasty display when I select it. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/lewisbee/Screenshot.png < Screenshot. How do I fix this problem?
[02:45] <IdleOne> XsteelWolf: do apt-cache search fingerprint
[02:45] <Ensiferum> tech0007: what do you mean?
[02:45] <IdleOne> XsteelWolf: or search in Synaptic for  fingerprint
[02:45] <jrib> tobias__: what if you do 'xhost -local:' and try 'env DISPLAY=:0. gedit' in your crontab?
[02:46] <Ensiferum> tech0007: i think im on dapper
[02:46] <tobias__> jrib: it works now, its ok :)
[02:46] <jeroen__> peepz i'm really starting to get pissed.
[02:46] <XsteelWolf> any recommendations?
[02:46] <k31th> ikonia: my other system states it has 500mb of ram in cache (total of 1gb)
[02:46] <jeroen__> now they say my xorg isn't ok

[02:53] <EnigmaX> ipx:  Fiesta sounds better lol
[02:53] <Lewisbeech> I'm running Ubuntu Studio

[02:56] <jeroen__> well dudes I am really a frickin noob
[02:56] <EnigmaX> Has anyone had problems with Swiftfox 2.0 installs?
[02:56] <EnigmaX> I installed it, but when I launch it, nothing happens
[02:57] <jeroen__> I need to change something on Xorg but I really don't knwo what to do
[02:57] <EnigmaX> window open says "Starting Swiftfox", but that's it
[02:57] <dgjones> Ensiferum, what do you get when you type "lsb_release -a" in a terminal
[02:57] <IdleOne> jeroen__: resolution problem?
[02:57] <EnigmaX> dgjones: It tells you what version of Ubunut your running
[02:57] <Ensiferum> dgjones: got it thanks
[02:58] <jeroen__> yeah
[02:58] <AlanBShepard70> are snort or ethereal (wireshark) safe to install?
[02:58] <dbkim> hi
[02:58] <jeroen__> trying to run stuff on wine which asks for a 640x480 res but I don't have that
[02:58] <Enselic> AlanBShepard70: yes, why shouldn't they?
[02:58] <IdleOne> jeroen__: try this dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ( when in doubt go with the defaul answer
[02:58] <IdleOne> )
[02:58] <dbkim> is there anyone who has tried 7.10?
[02:58] <AlanBShepard70> It just makes me nervous to have things installed that can sniff ALL of my net traffic
[02:59] <Enselic> dbkim: /j #ubuntu+1 thanks
[02:59] <lamego> xserver-xorg has nothing to do with wine resolution
[02:59] <AlanBShepard70> But I really want the functionality of them
[02:59] <IdleOne> jeroen__: oh oh
[02:59] <IdleOne> jeroen__: try asking in #winehq they should be able to help you more
[02:59] <Enselic> AlanBShepard70: if you send sensitive stuff unencrypted you are toasted anyway :)
[03:00] <Enselic> AlanBShepard70: no matter if you see your traffic or not
[03:00] <AlanBShepard70> Enselic which is better/easier to use? Have you tried themboth?
[03:00] <smekerce> hamide
[03:00] <smekerce> dada
[03:00] <Enselic> AlanBShepard70: Wireshark is nice.
[03:01] <jeroen__> they don't help me out
[03:01] <cafuego> Run  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, add it to allowed resolutions when asked, wine should then be able to switch to it.
[03:01] <smekerce> ja sum mali
[03:01] <jeroen__> all they did was tell me to stop using wine if I was a noob
[03:01] <jeroen__> and after that they said RECONFIGURE XORG
[03:01] <jeroen__> that's all
[03:01] <AlanBShepard70> Do either packages offer a GUI or are they both command line only?
[03:01] <jeroen__> so uhm after doing the thing..........need to reboot?
[03:01] <IdleOne> jeroen__: try this dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ( when in doubt go with the defaul answer | [09:01:12]  <cafuego> Run  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, add it to allowed resolutions when asked, wine should then be able to switch to it.

[03:07] <runemaste644> dont use m$
[03:07] <jeroen__> cause I can't get any game to work in linux
[03:08] <runemaste644> use LINUX
[03:08] <runemaste644> cedega is shareware...
[03:08] <runemaste644> ...but probly worth it
[03:08] <jeroen__> cedega sucks

[03:12] <jeroen__> cause they all don't do the trick for me
[03:12] <kaushal> is it sudo apt-get install google-desktop
[03:12] <runemaste644> jeroen__ there are plenty of linux games to keep you happy
[03:12] <fastfinger> Any idea at all, anyone?
[03:13] <IdleOne> jeroen__: I understand your frustration but it is not Linux fault it is the games manufacturers who dont provide good linux support for the games
[03:13] <runemaste644> !nickspam | fastfinger
[03:13] <ubotu> fastfinger: You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair on new users. The same goes for using noisy away messages : use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently - See also !Guidelines

[03:14] <Daverocks> jeroen__: some popular windows titles like the unreal tournament series, quake series, doom series work natively on linux
[03:14] <brobostigon> thats ook, if wine doesnt work for you. but its a shame really.

[03:17] <Baron> I have tried to follow the faq but for some reason I can't get ./configure to recognize or do anything
[03:17] <jeroen__> No i won't try anything no more
[03:17] <badelvis> what i headphone jack sense?
[03:17] <runemaste644> baron: are you in the extracted package?
[03:18] <cafuego> The thing is, if you want to run WINDOWS games, just use WINDOWS.
[03:18] <codecaine> :)
[03:18] <recon> or wine, or cedega, or something.
[03:18] <runemaste644> jeroen__: what part of 'Halo' and '3' do you not already understand???

[03:20] <eye_> i found a nice theme, and like to apply that one, there is a gtkrc file included
[03:20] <runemaste644> and copy and paste to SH

[03:32] <vsayikiran> i am able to connect azureus to outside world , may be due to firewall problem
[03:33] <mirak> I was trying Elisa media center, and in fact I am wondering why this have to be a different application than in fact the desktop manager. Shouldn't the media be handled by nautilus ? Shouldn't gnome or nautilus just provide a diffrent view, a diffrent mode to acces to the media ? Why delegate that to an external application ??
[03:33] <ephracis> I have set up NFS sharing on an Ubuntu machine, I even double-checked the /etc/exports file to say "/media/Share 192.168.0.0/24(rw)".

[03:33] <ephracis> Oh, and I restarted the nfs kernel server in init.d after I had made some changes to the /etc/exports file.

[03:35] <jon9314> i have gutsy rc1 installed and my /home partition is on a second hard drive. when finnal release comes out i wan't to clean install. will i be able to save my /home easily?
[03:37] <kaw22> Anybody who can help me with Cron?
[03:38] <recon> kaw22: what about it?
[03:38] <tds> does wine run slow for anyone here? starting up winrar takes like 5 secs
[03:38] <kaw22> recon: I'm trying to make it start a service every second, but I cannot make it work
[03:39] <recon> kaw22: ...for what purpouse?
[03:39] <recon> kaw22: why would you want to make a service start EVERY SECOND?
[03:39] <kaw22> recon: I've added this line to crontab: 1  *  *  * *   /etc/init.d/hlds01 start
[03:39] <misnix> every minute is max
[03:39] <recon> kaw22: you can only start one every minute, tops.
[03:40] <kaw22> recon: I meant every minut. :)
[03:40] <jon9314> i have gutsy rc1 installed and my /home partition is on a second hard drive. when finnal release comes out i wan't to clean install. will i be able to save my /home easily?
[03:40] <recon> kaw22: my advice? don't.
[03:40] <brobostigon> backup
[03:40] <kaw22> recon: It's just to test if it works
[03:41] <kaw22> recon: Because I cannot make Cron do anything, period.
[03:41] <recon> kaw22: if you can't, you might want to try "at" or something.
[03:41] <mohkohn> If I have feisty and I am updating will it use the sources off the gutsy cd first or will it go to the really slow kh sources?
[03:41] <kaw22> recon: I've tried that, but that doesn't do anything either
[03:41] <dgjones> jon9314, you should just be able to reinstall and mount tell the installer to mount your second hdd as /home but not to format it, that way it should keep anything already on it (although backup would be a good idea just in case)
[03:41] <mohkohn> upgrade and dist-upgrade I mean
[03:41] <recon> kaw22: then i have no idea. other people will be in here later, try asking then.
[03:42] <mohkohn> or should I # my kh sources only leaving the new gutsy cd to upgrade from?
[03:43] <kaw22> recon: Ok, thanks though

[04:07] <lunz> how about gnome?
[04:08] <matt_> x0ru, i think because they're running with as much scsi emulation as possible, it's an ubuntu default
[04:08] <cafuego> x0ru: They're not, they're seen by libata, which uses the new unified driver, which uses /dev/sdX as device names.

[04:09] <matt_> dumptruck ubuntu automatically adds entries for your XP, if not try running update-grub to do so

[04:18] <ufarooq> is it better for me to wait untill the final release, or can i go ahead and install the release candidate, my understanding is, that the rc and the final are not going to be much different, and if there are major bugs in the rc, that should be able to be resolved by update manager, yes?
[04:19] <ufarooq> lol, looks like mdm445 and i have the same question
[04:19] <lgc_> NeedHelp, do you have it partitioned already?
[04:19] <mdm445> yeah lol
[04:19] <NeedHelp> I have partitions and mounpointd
[04:19] <Lerris> i'm using the rc, and the one bug i haven't been able to solve is writing dvds using my sata recorder.  I'll probably try to file a bug report later if nothing else.

[04:20] <NeedHelp> I can view it in /dev but nothing happens when I open it
[04:21] <cafuego> Yes, like say wireless not working on current gutsy kernels.
[04:21] <Lerris> part of my problem is i used gentoo for years and their are differences that make it harder for me to debug
[04:21] <ufarooq> my second question is that, i was thinking of installing the 64bit version, i have a turion processor, i found this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=551491, i was wondering if that will allow me to play flash videos in 64bit gutsy, anyone tried that yet?

[04:26] <lgc_> NeedHelp, what kind if file system is on the old disk?
[04:26] <ufarooq> cafuego: so it automatically disables your built in speakers and feeds the audio to your headphones when you plug it in, nice
[04:26] <cafuego> ufarooq: Well, to the tv (mythtv) but yes ;-)
[04:26] <NeedHelp> ext 3 on hdb1
[04:26] <NeedHelp> ext3
[04:26] <cafuego> ufarooq: As far as I'm aware that's a hardware function though, not a software one.
[04:27] <ilovey>  
[04:27] <ufarooq> cafuego: thanks alot, and one last question, i promise, what do you use for msn, if you msn that is, i'm not a fan of gaim, and amsn...i don't know, it just seems very unpolished, unlike gaim
[04:27] <ufarooq> or the rest of ubuntu for that matter
[04:27] <aLeSD>  
[04:27] <cafuego> I use pidgin
[04:27] <fastfinger> NeedHelp: what are you having problem with, i think you and my problem is the same :<
[04:27] <lgc_> NeedHelp, you need to make a mount point, for example 'mkdir /temp'
[04:27] <whileimhere> Hi World!
[04:27] <cafuego> ilovey/aLeSD: English please.
[04:27] <ufarooq> cafuego: thanks alot
[04:27] <dennda> hi there. my laptop can't awake from suspend2ram. the screen keeps black and doesn't do anything. any idea why this is? (hp nx6125, ati xpress 200M with "ati", problem on feisty and gutsy)
[04:27] <aLeSD> cafuego: sorry
[04:28] <ilovey> oh sorry
[04:28] <whileimhere> Can anyone tell me what the checkbox option  called "Dummy Write" is for in GnomeBaker?
[04:28] <NeedHelp> I need to EITHER Boot into Ubuntu sucessfully, or copy files from drive. It says Apt-Get is not installed. Apt-get install apt.
[04:28] <ipx> Is there a way to get over your monitors recommended hz-range? On ubuntu it wont ever go over 85hz, even if i can get 120 up and running on the same resolution in windows.
[04:28] <lgc_> NeedHelp, and then actually mount the device, 'mount /dev/sdb1 /temp -t ext3'
[04:28] <HohlerMann> Morning... I'm having a sudden wireless issue that came out of nowhere and there's some work I need to get done today.  I can see the device, I can ping the loopback, but I get ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted.  iwlist works, it's picking up an IP via DHCP, but I can't get anywhere.  Any suggetsions?
[04:28] <ipx> Im sick of 85hz when i can have 120
[04:29] <HohlerMann> As in I can ping the loopback okay, but when I ping anything else I get the "operation not permitted"
[04:29] <Bizzeh> ipx: recomended ranges are there for a reason
[04:29] <Bizzeh> when it says 120 in windows, that doesnt mean its actualy refreshing at 120
[04:29] <ipx> Bizzeh: my screen says it does
[04:30] <Lerris> There are overrides for most any option in X.  I've had to use them before.  Not sure how or if ubuntu overwrites your xorg.conf.
[04:30] <ipx> and i can se a difference between 85, 100 and 120
[04:30] <ipx> a big difference actually
[04:30] <MartinW> Is there software which I can use to listen to a podcast without buying an ipod?
[04:30] <Bizzeh> no you cant
[04:30] <ipx> gotten quite spoilt with 120
[04:30] <ipx> yes i can
[04:30] <MartinW> For Ubuntu
[04:30] <Bizzeh> your eye cannot physicaly see over 70ish
[04:30] <ipx> compared them alot
[04:30] <Lerris> The real option for no flicker is an lcd of course... at any rate afk
[04:30] <Bizzeh> you can FEEL a difference above that, but you CANNOT see it
[04:30] <ipx> Well, you'll still see a difference
[04:30] <ipx> ...
[04:30] <lunz> compiz error..can someone help me?
[04:30] <ipx> Well, pretty much it.
[04:30] <NeedHelp> ty for the help
[04:31] <ipx> and i love having 120, and when im used to it going down to 85 is a real bummer
[04:31] <ipx> i know its doable since it works in windows
[04:31] <ipx> maybe a new programming project perhaps..
[04:31] <ipx> removing the manufactuers recommended resolutions ;)
[04:31] <Bizzeh> and toasting your monitor
[04:31] <brobostigon> yep
[04:31] <lgc_> NeedHelp, what happened?
[04:32] <HohlerMann> Anyone have any ideas about my wireless issue?  If not, thank you for your time.

[04:37] <Doow> I have a file that behaves badly ( filename is of the style "-file - text.zip" ) I can't cp or mv or do anything with it. Any suggestions on how to rename it? (I only have shell access to the box where it resides)
[04:37] <stib> Doow: what happens when you try?
[04:38] <Doow> stib it treats the leading dash as if it's a flag
[04:38] <stib> oh of course. ooh nasty.
[04:39] <jrib> Doow: mv -- "-file - text.zip" newname
[04:39] <Doow> stib: I've tried escaping it with \, and putting the whole filename in both single and double quotes
[04:39] <Doow> stib: not with the -- thoguh
[04:39] <Doow> stib: brb
[04:40] <liau> fakin
[04:40] <kaw22> Anyone knows how to change Document Root in Apache? (Installed server as LAMP)

[04:41] <stib> no worries, any time you need expert advice ;)
[04:41] <Doow> =D
[04:41] <poololse> so no answers?
[04:42] <jrib> !please > poololse (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:42] <stib> so does anyone know where the colour bars image you see in screensavers comes from?
[04:42] <stib> It's sooo ugly it ruins my day every time I see it.
[04:42] <whileimhere> Is there a way to wipe the free space on a linux system?
[04:42] <ompaul> kaw22, sites-available/default:        DocumentRoot /var/www/  <  have a look at that
[04:43] <fastfinger> partition the free space?
[04:43] <jonnymac> how do I scan feisty for bugs or viruses
[04:43] <Dumptruck> so why after updating the grub, does widows not appear in the grub splash page?
[04:44] <calav3ra> hm i have an intel 815 graphicscard and problems setting it up to 1680x1050 with my samsung syncmaster 223 bw
[04:44] <kaw22> ompaul: Thank you. :)
[04:44] <aguitel> !sabayon
[04:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sabayon - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:44] <whileimhere> What I want to do is have the ability to wipe all the free space securely after I remove all my old finance files for the quarter and i really dont want to have to load DBAN up and redo the system four times a year.
[04:44] <codecaine> where are .doc file located
[04:44] <calav3ra> lspci tells it has 64megs of memory, so should be no problem to use that resolution
[04:44] <ompaul> aguitel, that would be a different channel
[04:44] <codecaine> like perl.doc and gcc.doc
[04:44] <Dumptruck> or how do I fix the xp bootdisk from linux?
[04:44] <Dumptruck> or both? :)
[04:45] <ompaul> !grub > Dumptruck (check the message from the bot
[04:45] <calav3ra> i can get 1440x1050 fine to work, but its streteched and flickers
[04:45] <stib> Dumptruck have a look at /boot/grub/menu.lst it's the file that grub reads to produce that splash screen
[04:45] <Dumptruck> yes I have read both
[04:46] <ompaul> codecaine, /usr/share/doc and /usr/share/doc-base are intersting places
[04:46] <codecaine> ty
[04:46] <ccii> Can anybody help me with a screen resolution problem?
[04:46] <codecaine> just needed the general ideal that helped :)
[04:46] <picard_pwns_kirk> ccii: waht kind of problem?
[04:46] <ompaul> !resolution > ccii
[04:46] <ompaul> ccii, check the message from the bot - the collected knowledge base is in that one
[04:46] <picard_pwns_kirk> !resolution | ccii
[04:46] <ubotu> ccii: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[04:47] <Dumptruck> stib: sorry I don't see xp in that file
[04:47] <ompaul> picard_pwns_kirk, use > to have the bot pm a person
[04:47] <picard_pwns_kirk> ah
[04:47] <stib> Dumptuck if the file was produced by update-grub it should have a couple of examples up near the top
[04:47] <picard_pwns_kirk> thanks
[04:47] <calav3ra> oh i did that before, so im looking for other syncmaster users here
[04:47] <stib> they'll be commented out.
[04:47] <nikin> hy, i changed the repo from my local, to the default, and now my debian menus fall apart... newly installed programs get in to an english mennu, and the old ones are in a hungarian.. how can i rebuild my menus to be one language?
[04:47] <kaw22> Anybody who can help me getting Cron to work? I'm trying to make it run this command: /etc/init.d/hlds01 start - No luck so far
[04:48] <Dumptruck> so copy them paste without comment symbols save and restart?
[04:48] <ccii> picard_pwns_kirk, : Via the gnome menu, I can only choose between 800x600 and 600X480  , although in Xorg.conf I also have 1024x768, and I know that my graphic card and my monitor are capable of displaying this kind of resolution
[04:49] <kromix> test
[04:49] <stib> yup, just check that the device that they're on is right for your machine eg (hd0,1) if it's on the first partition of hd0.
[04:49] <picard_pwns_kirk> ccii: are you reading the right section in the xorg.conf?
[04:49] <stib> Dumptruck: DO BACKUPS FIRST!
[04:49] <Dumptruck> it is actually on a seperate HD
[04:49] <redoo> hy
[04:50] <redoo> does anybody know how i can configure pidgin to send messages with "alt+s" instead of return?
[04:50] <stib> Dumptruck: shouldn't be a problem.
[04:50] <Dumptruck> so I will need to write the correct drive or the drive that is in the example?
[04:50] <Dumptruck> # title		Windows 95/98/NT/2000
[04:50] <Dumptruck> # root		(hd0,0)
[04:50] <Dumptruck> # makeactive
[04:50] <Dumptruck> # chainloader	+1
[04:50] <stib> Dumptruck: the correct one.
[04:51] <stib> where it says root (hd0,0) change that to the device that your windoze partition is on
[04:52] <DirtyBecky> k
[04:52] <Dumptruck> ok so the drive with the windows partition is not mounted when I boot into Ubuntu
[04:52] <Dumptruck> will this be a problem?
[04:52] <stallones> ubuntu riconosce il fat32?

[04:53] <stib> Dumptruck: well when you're at the grub screen you have'nt booted into Ubuntu yet, so it hasn't mounted anything AFAIK
[04:54] <stib> Dumptruck: that's why you're specifying (hdx,x) instead of /dev/hda1 etc
 ubuntu recognize fat32 partition?

[04:56] <ompaul> stallones, to read that in italian please go to #ubuntu-it
[04:56] <vsayikiran> i am not able to downlaod anything due to firewall problem in azureus , what should i do?
[04:56] <Dumptruck> ahh... I am just trying to find what is the right name of the disc
[04:57] <stib> Dumptruck: try firing up a partiton tool like gparted to see your device names (don't do any changes though)
[04:57] <vsayikiran> please help whoever is using azureus
[04:57] <Dumptruck> or would GrubEd be my best bet - sorry I am still a bit linux challenged
[04:58] <vsayikiran> its showing firewall is blocking some port , then after some searching in net i ran some commands for iptables but still not able to download
[04:58] <picard_pwns_kirk> is there any way to get the kiba-dock?
[04:59] <picard_pwns_kirk> I don't see a download link on their site
[04:59] <vsayikiran> how get rid of firewall
[04:59] <Dumptruck> # title		Windows 95/98/NT/2000
[04:59] <Dumptruck> # root		(hd0,0)
[04:59] <Dumptruck> # makeactive
[04:59] <Dumptruck> # chainloader	+1
[04:59] <Dumptruck> whereas hd0 - is sdc1
[04:59] <stib> Dumptruck: I only recently hosed my menu.lst file (and I'd forgotten to back it up), so as I didn't know my windows partition device name I put in multiple entries and tried each one till I got the one that worked
[04:59] <Dumptruck> and what is the 0 after that?
[04:59] <stib> Dumptruck: partition numb er
[05:00] <vsayikiran> azureus is not downlaoding due to firewall problem, i have maade some chaanges to iptables but still failes
[05:00] <stib> so, (drive, partition)
[05:00] <Dumptruck> and if it is one partition?
[05:00] <Dumptruck> just 1?
[05:00] <stib> probably 0
[05:00] <stib> nerds always start counting at 0
[05:00] <Cat-talk> I am running Ubuntu 7.04 on a Toshiba Satellite laptop connected to the net via cable modem.  After a few hoursm of running the reaction seems to start slowing down.  Pages take longer to load, music and videos don't play as wel and stall, etc.  I suspect that it may be the result of something getting in from the outside but I can't be certain.  How can I determine the source of the problem and keep it form happening?
[05:01] <JAB2002> CAT how much memory
[05:01] <Cat-talk> 1 gig
[05:01] <JAB2002> are u running gnome
[05:01] <Cat-talk> actually 1.2
[05:01] <Dumptruck> and keep the make active and chainloader?
[05:02] <stib> Dumptruck: try a couple of entries one with root (hd0, 0) and one with (hd0,1)
[05:02] <stib> yes keep the rest
[05:02] <JAB2002> type in free and post results
[05:02] <ompaul> !pastebin
[05:02] <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)
[05:03] <Dumptruck> it won't let me save
[05:03] <stib> oh you have to be root
[05:03] <ompaul> !root
[05:03] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:04] <stib> or use sudo like the man just said
[05:04] <ompaul> Dumptruck, gksu if a gui editor

[05:04] <stib> sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list

[05:04] <nanonyme> jab2002, isn't that alpha/beta?
[05:04] <ompaul> stib, no gksu gedit
[05:05] <cjae> using k3b on 7.04 and cannot write dvd with .mpg and .mov to disc faster than .40x - 1.5x. The burner is a plextor that is capable of burning dvd5 @ 16x
[05:05] <JAB2002> no its not
[05:05] <stib> or sudo <your texte editor of choice> /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:05] <Cat-talk> which reminds me of another problem...later
[05:05] <ompaul> stib, no you only do sudo for command line sudo nano or sudo vi/vim gksu for gedit
[05:06] <stib> !gksu
[05:06] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  - See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[05:06] <jigen> hello everybody

[05:15] <dennda> hi there. my laptop can't awake from suspend2ram. the screen keeps black and doesn't do anything. any idea why this is? (hp nx6125, ati xpress 200M with "ati", problem on feisty and gutsy)
[05:15] <MukiEX> Thanks, Jab!
[05:15] <Ronin[] > ubuntu currently does not recognize my USB-Devices
[05:15] <JAB2002> Dumptruck what do you mean partition 0 and 1 didnt work
[05:15] <JAB2002> your welcome
[05:16] <Pumpitup> Ronin : which usb device
[05:16] <Ronin[] > those already attached (keyboard, mouse) work, but none new ones are recognized.
[05:16] <Ronin[] > USB-Harddrive, USB-Camera
[05:16] <JAB2002> dennda yes ive got the same issue
[05:16] <Dumptruck> I made two entries for XP -sdc1,0 and sdc1,1
[05:16] <Ronin[] > even if i would disconnect my keyboard now, it would not be recognized again
[05:16] <dennda> JAB2002: and a solution, too?
[05:16] <Ronin[] > until i reboot
[05:16] <Dumptruck> and tried them both
[05:16] <JAB2002> nope not yet been searching for a month
[05:16] <Dumptruck> both gave me the same error
[05:17] <Ronin[] > is there some kind of daemon i can restart ?
[05:18] <Dumptruck> was I wrong?
[05:19] <Ronin[] > anyone can help me with that ?
[05:20] <Almindor> hello
[05:20] <JAB2002> hello
[05:20] <sense> hello
[05:20] <Almindor> I got Fiesty on my x86_64 (amd64) laptop, and since yesterday's update I can't use svn
[05:20] <Almindor> I always get "unrcognized URL scheme"
[05:20] <Almindor> even for "svn up" on dirs I co-ed myself
[05:20] <Cat-talk> ran the speed test.  I hope what I saw is not what I think I saw.  Green line about 1/4 of blue
[05:20] <Almindor> anyone heard of any such problems?
[05:20] <neopsyche> whats the command to restart x from the command line?
[05:20] <neopsyche> (instead of ctrl alt bksps)
[05:21] <sense> Almindor: see if u can browse svn in a browser
[05:21] <Almindor> sense, I can!
[05:21] <Almindor> sense, but if I do "svn ls the-url-from-browser" it errors with this
[05:21] <Dumptruck> stib:  I made two entries for XP -sdc1,0 and sdc1,1 - was this wrong? should I omit the number after the comma?
[05:21] <Almindor> now I read the SVN FAQ and it states that there's some .so responsible for this, and that it might be mis-installed etc.
[05:22] <Almindor> I tried reinstalling the subversion package but no help
[05:22] <neopsyche> ?????
[05:23] <jif> neopsyche: you can do /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[05:23] <neopsyche> ok.
[05:24] <JAB2002> neo i already posted that? cant u read
[05:24] <neopsyche> but that usually kills any commandline interface doesnt it?
[05:24] <jif> neopsyche: yep.  That's going to happen anytime you restart X.
[05:24] <neopsyche> JAB2002 I dont see that, I just logged on.
[05:24] <JAB2002> ahh
[05:25] <neopsyche> so what does gdm restart besides x?

[05:32] <Dumptruck> am I making dual booting harder than it is?
[05:32] <linuxfiend> I just recently purchased a PNY Verto GeForce 8500 GT 512MB DDR2 PCIe graphic card and just ran a clean install of 7.04 and I have glxgears right of the install (2000+ frames) but they run rather clunky..  and when I try to run an accelerated game it runs like a piece of poop..  can anyone help me?  This is the first card that I haven't had to manually install or enable restricted drivers for.  When I noticed I had a problem I
[05:32] <linuxfiend>  tried installing nvidia-glx but then lost gears altogether. Any help is greatly appreciated
[05:32] <MasterShrek> not really Dumptruck, theres just a few things u gotta understand about how grub works, change (sdc1,1) to (hd0,0) and give it a shot
[05:33] <Jammer> viki, #ubuntu-fi
[05:33] <hans_> kann mir jemand dabei helfen meine wlan karte zu patchen??
[05:33] <Dumptruck> ok
[05:33] <MarioGL> MasterShrek: do you know what can be the problem with the dmesg output I pasted?
[05:34] <MasterShrek> linux4me, maybe use the drivers from nvidias site
[05:34] <MasterShrek> MarioGL, im looking into it...
[05:34] <MarioGL> MasterShrek: sorry.
[05:34] <linuxfiend> well I thought of that but I'm a little concerned about the fact that they have embedded drivers on the card or so it seems
[05:35] <Dumptruck> ok - thanks MS - hopefully I will see you soon
[05:35] <kane77> i guess using ndiswrapper means no wardriving :( am I right?
[05:35] <HarryR> is there a specific channel for Ubuntu/PPC ?
[05:36] <MasterShrek> its ok MarioGL, have you installed alsa packages through apt?
[05:36] <MarioGL> no, I compiled them
[05:36] <MasterShrek> linux4me, i dont think so
[05:36] <MasterShrek> kane77, doubtful, what kind of card is it?
[05:36] <kane77> MasterShrek, its broadcom 4311...
[05:37] <MasterShrek> HarryR, i dont know, but unless your question it specific to ppc u can ask here
[05:37] <mturek> Hi, I have problems uninstalling Kubuntu packages from my Ubuntu FF.
[05:37] <Shapeshifter> My taksbar sometimes shows the tasks in more-narrow buttons, and sometimes it streches the buttons so that e.g. 3 buttons fill out the whole width of the taskbar. does it follow any logic when doing this, and how can I tell gnome always to strech the buttons?
[05:37] <HarryR> ok
[05:37] <MasterShrek> kane77, thats what i have, they have a kernel module for that you know?
[05:37] <mturek> i
[05:37] <kane77> MasterShrek, but I havent been very lucky with the bcm43xx..
[05:37] <MasterShrek> im practically a pro lol
[05:37] <MarioGL> MasterShrek: how do I remove what I compiled? So I can install with apt.
[05:37] <MasterShrek> i help people set them up in this chan almost every day :)
[05:37] <linuxfiend> well it may not, I don't know..  it's just it seems that way.  Like for instance when I try using the GUI method of enabling restricted drivers I am told this is not necessary
[05:37] <viki> could someone help me. I don't understand why i cannot mount my cdrom?
[05:37] <MasterShrek> mturek, what kinda problems?
[05:38] <HarryR> I'm on an iMac G3 with a Rage 128 RL/VR AGP card, enabling DRI causes Xorg to hang if I start any OpenGL application (even glxgears) although glxinfo and xdriinfo show it as enabled
[05:38] <mturek> I uninstalled kubuntu-desktop but sudo apt-get autoremove doesn't find any other packages to uninstall
[05:38] <viki> or toss me a link somewhere about it
[05:38] <linuxfiend> and like metioned above, this is on a clean install of 7.04
[05:38] <MasterShrek> linuxfiend, well i dont know for sure, i dont have that updated of a gfx card
[05:38] <HarryR> i've been through all the messageboards and this is a known issue, I was just wondering if anybody has found or knows of a workaround
[05:38] <linuxfiend> I have only changed my sources and done a few minimal installs
[05:38] <kane77> MasterShrek, it's been misbehaving while using the kernel module.. for a while it worked then it disapeared... and after while it was back..
[05:38] <seanh> Hi folks. A friend is coming round to collect her laptop soon, so it's my last chance to try and fix this problem. I wonder if anyone could give me any hints on this: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/14689 I'm reading the Linux wireless LAN how-to now to try and learn how to debug it
[05:38] <linuxfiend> yeah this is a new one for me as well
[05:39] <Dumptruck> nope- it didn't work - I still got the Parsing error
[05:39] <MasterShrek> kane77, ive been using it on my 4311 without problems for quite a while now, u on 7.04?
[05:39] <kane77> MasterShrek, no I'm on 7.10
[05:39] <MasterShrek> seanh, what kinda card is it?
[05:39] <MasterShrek> kane77, even better the kernel module runs great on it
[05:40] <MasterShrek> kane77, if u want me to help u set it up, doesnt take long, and it will make for much better wardriving
[05:40] <kane77> MasterShrek, how do I enable the kernel module? or are they on?
[05:40] <seanh> MasterShrek -- Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter, internal.
[05:40] <HarryR> aparently DRI on the same machine will work using Mandrake 10 or 9, but was introduced with some update to xorg around Ubuntu 5
[05:40] <sashimi> hi everyone
[05:40] <MasterShrek> kane77, you need firmware, i can get u a link one sec...
[05:40] <Dumptruck> I think I might just take a bucket of water and show my desktop just what boot priority is all about
[05:40] <linuxfiend> it's been a minute since I used IRC..  is it #ubuntu-effects still?
[05:40] <MasterShrek> kane77, http://www.mediafire.com/?bqn8x4eancv download that, and extract it to /lib/firmwaer
[05:41] <MasterShrek> firmware**
[05:41] <_6StringKng_> any reason why I can't use visual effects in gusty?
[05:41] <linuxfiend> guess not..  not linkable from that
[05:41] <MasterShrek> Dumptruck, try sd0,0
[05:41] <sashimi> I've got many 0x?? accelerator stuff binded to sound keyboard shortcuts, but i don't have a clue what actual keyboard keys they mean
[05:41] <sashimi> is there any way to find out ?
[05:41] <MasterShrek> linuxfiend, yes there is a #ubuntu-effects chan still
[05:41] <Dumptruck> is there an easier way than trial and error?
[05:41] <linuxfiend> yeah I found it.. didn't want to waste a whole line on a "nm"
[05:42] <sashimi> _6StringKng_, your gfx card must be disabled (ati isn't it ?)
[05:42] <kane77> MasterShrek, what next?
[05:42] <neopsyche> strangely .. even if i specify 800x600 in xorg the settings in gui still only offer 640x480
[05:42] <_6StringKng_> yeah, lmao
[05:42] <MasterShrek> kane77, first sudo rmmod ndiswrapper, then sudo modprobe bcm43xx
[05:42] <sashimi> _6StringKng_, by disabled I mean 3D effects blacklisted since the RC came out (not stable enough)
[05:43] <_6StringKng_> ah, k, not thqat big fo a deal then
[05:43] <slonnik> any ideas about "reeFontPath: FPE "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc" refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing. " when launch startx gnome ?
[05:43] <_6StringKng_> of a*
[05:43] <wizo> hey er, my ubuntu needs a bit of help with it's internet
[05:43] <kane77> MasterShrek, eh before I begin... is there a way I can back up my current ndiswrapper configuration? how can I switch between ndiswrapper and bcm43xx?
[05:43] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, did you leave other options in xorg? just put 800x600 in there and try it
[05:43] <wizo> it's on fiesty fawn and i've installed it on vmware, where can i set it's ip address?
[05:43] <sashimi> _6StringKng_, suppose it'll get fixed sometime when ati/amd at last release their new drivers
[05:43] <wizo> currently it's ip is some random number which doesnt seem to go with my router
[05:44] <MasterShrek> kane77, just like that command i just gave you, rmmod will remove the modules, modprobe will load it, you dont want both loaded at the same time though, it will probably lock your system up
[05:44] <_6StringKng_> alright, thanks for the info
[05:44] <_6StringKng_> help
[05:44] <kane77> MasterShrek, heh.. good to know that... btw is restart necessary after this?
[05:44] <sashimi> any one hear have an idea what the heck is keyboard key hex code 0xa2 ?!
[05:44] <sashimi> _6StringKng_, welcome
[05:45] <arang2> hi, guys how do i stop compiz fusion and switch to metacity in a temporary fashion, in gutsy?
[05:45] <MasterShrek> no kane77, not usually
[05:45] <lunz> how do i check my nvidia driver's version?
[05:45] <_6StringKng_> its on my laptop, which I use when I'm in bed, when I'm too lazy to walk over to my main pc, so doesn't matter too much, lulz
[05:45] <MasterShrek> kane77, but i would blacklist either the bcm43xx or the ndiswrapper modules, because they both might load on boot, which could cause problems too
[05:45] <MasterShrek> !blacklist | kane77
[05:45] <ubotu> kane77: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[05:45] <mturek> arang2: install fusion-icon
[05:45] <arang2> mturek: is at the repositories?
[05:45] <gnomefreak> lunz: apt-cache policy nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-new or -legacy depending on what you have installed
[05:45] <sashimi> _6StringKng_, any way, I'm not sure 3D effects on a laptop is the best thing to enable :D
[05:45] <mturek> don't think so
[05:46] <gnomefreak> mturek: arang2 its not
[05:46] <kritzstapf> is there a howto for mapping X89AudioPLay etc. to specific key codes?`
[05:46] <arang2> gnomefreak: how do i get it?
[05:46] <MasterShrek> sashimi, what does a laptop have to do with it?
[05:46] <kane77> MasterShrek, thanx a lot... i will try that and let you know how it works...
[05:46] <sashimi> MasterShrek, battery ...
[05:46] <MasterShrek> kritical, use setkeycodes
[05:46] <_6StringKng_> yeah, compiz-fusion half ass worked, part of the screen was cut off, but what worked was smooth, lol
[05:46] <gnomefreak> !fusion-icon
[05:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fusion-icon - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:46] <gnomefreak> grrrr
[05:46] <MasterShrek> sashimi, good point, im always plugged in though
[05:46] <_6StringKng_> was suprised actually
[05:47] <sashimi> MasterShrek, gfx cards even on laptops are not consumption optimized AT ALL
[05:47] <_6StringKng_> going to be putting gusty on my old pc soon as I get a monitor for it
[05:47] <MasterShrek> sounds good kane77
[05:47] <gnomefreak> arang2: give me a sec
[05:47] <arang2> gnomefreak: ok
[05:47] <sashimi> MasterShrek, but it's cool to be able to turn on the 3D stuff to impress pales every now and again :D
[05:48] <gnomefreak> arang2: these are the instructions http://pastebin.mozilla.org/218751
[05:48] <MasterShrek> sashimi, yea, but i find the whole idea of compiz-fusion pointless
[05:48] <MasterShrek> i just dont believe in the idea that you should simply because you can
[05:48] <arang2> gnomefreak: thanks i'll check it out
[05:48] <gnomefreak> arang2: np
[05:49] <sashimi> MasterShrek, me too, but it's the kind of useless candy stuff linux needs get people interested ;)
[05:49] <MasterShrek> i guess sashimi
[05:49] <linuxfiend> my favorite thing about 7.10 is read/write access to NTFS partitions..  ok.. enough loose chatter from me
[05:50] <sashimi> hmm, by the way, speaking of FS
[05:50] <sashimi> has there been change in the NFS stuff ?
[05:50] <wizo> hey, how do i change where my box gets it's ip address from?
[05:50] <sashimi> since gusty, I can't hook up to my nfs server
[05:51] <Dumptruck> mastershrek: OK I think I am a step closer - after the last changes it says starting up (instead of error 23) - a good sign.  But it hangs and won't boot into XP - what can I do?
[05:51] <sashimi> it throws me badblock stuff error every time :S
[05:51] <fyrestrtr> wizo: it will search for a dhcp server on the network, if it finds one -- it will ask it for an ip address.
[05:51] <fyrestrtr> wizo: if you want a static IP, use the network manager to set it.
[05:51] <wizo> hmm, currently it's ip address is kinda not working
[05:51] <Venko> A friend is trying to get the ATI accelerated graphics driver working in Gutsy
[05:52] <wizo> [01:01]  <blasse> okie..maybe like jus friendster or something
[05:52] <wizo> [01:01]  <blasse> im sure ure hot
[05:52] <wizo> gah
[05:52] <Venko> he gets the error "The software source for the package xorg-driver-fglrx is not enabled".
[05:52] <wizo> stupid thing sorry, wanted to paste the ip address from my vmware
[05:52] <Venko> Any ideas?
[05:52] <bwidja28> hi all
[05:52] <wizo> but erm, the ip address that i get when i do ifconfig doesnt look right
[05:52] <fyrestrtr> Venko: enable universe/multiverse sources
[05:53] <oliver_g_> wizo: what address do you get in ifconfig?
[05:53] <wizo> inet: 5.188.113.104
[05:53] <bwidja28> i have a problem with virtualbox, no lpt port, anyone can help
[05:54] <wizo> i think my router only gives ip from 10.0.0.2 onwards to 10.0.0.254
[05:54] <MasterShrek> Dumptruck, lemme check 4 you
[05:54] <oliver_g_> wizo: how is vmware configured?
[05:54] <MasterShrek> dam, i cant scroll back far enough Dumptruck, can u repaste or pastebin it?
[05:54] <oliver_g_> wizo: with bridge?
[05:54] <wizo> oliver_g_, what do you mean?
[05:54] <Venko> Thanks fyrestrtr
[05:54] <wizo> oliver_g_, ethernet is bridged
[05:54] <wizo> is that what you're asking?
[05:55] <Phatrabbit> can someone help test my ssh connection
[05:55] <MasterShrek> wizo, is the hardware on the virtual machine set for bridged also?
[05:55] <seanh> Anyone see anything odd about this iwconfig output? I thought the bitrate 0 and power off stuff looked odd, and the wireless card isn't detecting any networks, but I'm not sure exactly what the iwconfig output means or how to correct it
[05:55] <MasterShrek> i can Phatrabbit
[05:55] <oliver_g_> wizo: yes
[05:55] <Phatrabbit> pm me
[05:55] <Dumptruck> what do you need me to paste?
[05:55] <wizo> erm, when i click on vmware it says it is bridged
[05:56] <MasterShrek> Phatrabbit, is your nick regged? join #MasterShrek if its not
[05:56] <Dumptruck> OK I think I am a step closer - after the last changes it says starting up (instead of error 23) - a good sign.  But it hangs and won't boot into XP - what can I do?
[05:56] <oliver_g_> wizo: what system so you have installed in vmware? Ubuntu or kubuntu? Feisty or older?
[05:56] <MasterShrek> Dumptruck, i need your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:56] <wizo> oliver_g_, i have 7.04
[05:56] <Dumptruck> ok one sec
[05:56] <oliver_g_> wizo: what does the networkmanager say?
[05:57] <znh> Hello. I rent a movie from the movie store, but I can't get it work under Feisty. Is this fixable?
[05:57] <Venko> fyrestrtr: It didn't work D:
[05:57] <wizo> oliver_g_, network manager?
[05:57] <oliver_g_> wizo: the network icon in upper right corner should have a context menu with "connection information"
[05:57] <sashimi> znh, you need some decryption lib to read dvds
[05:58] <sashimi> znh, did you try out vlc ?
[05:58] <oliver_g_> wizo: (there should be an icon thart looks like a computer)
[05:58] <znh> sashimi, yes I did. No success
[05:58] <MasterShrek> !dvd
[05:58] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[05:58] <wizo> oliver_g_, oh, it says that i'm connected to a wired network
[05:58] <sashimi> znh, even in vlc O_o?
[05:58] <oliver_g_> (yeah i never understood why the NM guys gave that icon _two_ menus :-/ )
[05:58] <axjv> Does anyone know how to have a startup program that executes after a 20 second delay?
[05:59] <oliver_g_> wizo: if you right-click on it, it should have the menu item "connection information"
[05:59] <znh> MasterShrek, that guide doesn't work with Feisty
[05:59] <MasterShrek> znh, i didnt know that
[06:00] <wizo> interface: Wired Ethernet (eth0), speed 1000Mb/s driver: e1000
[06:00] <wizo> anything in particular? primary dns is  0.0.0.0
[06:01] <oliver_g_> wizo: what is the "default route"?
[06:01] <wizo> oliver_g_, 5.0.0.1
[06:01] <axjv> Does anyone know how to add a 20 second delay before a startup program?
[06:02] <oliver_g_> wizo: hmm... what does "ls -l /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.*" say=
[06:02] <heguru> axjv: you can use after command
[06:02] <oliver_g_> ?
[06:02] <axjv> heguru: In sessions manager?
[06:03] <heguru> axjv: you can use it there
[06:03] <sashimi> znh, actually, i just tested on my gusty box, and i can't get dvds to read either
[06:03] <axjv> heguru: Can you give an example?
[06:03] <heguru> axjv: for the command you want to run, just use this format: after 2000 yourcommand
[06:04] <axjv> heguru: Thanks, I'll try it out.
[06:04] <heguru> axjv: 2000 will be 2 seconds (its in ms)
[06:04] <axjv> Alright, restarting to see.
[06:05] <wizo> oliver_g_, alot of lines, like, .ath0.leases, .eth0.leases, .eth1.leases, .eth2.leases, .dhclient.leases .wlan0.leases
[06:05] <wizo> and my windows is now having a ip address conflict
[06:06] <newguy> yo, hey everynow and then sound dies in fiesty, for banshee and other apps, whats up with that?
[06:06] <a514> Hi i just d/l istanbul but it does not work, i pressed the red icon & it changed to a box then i i clicked it again & it changed to a  harddisk icon, what do you suggest?! Thanks.
[06:06] <zanner> hello, somebody knows where i can find the game XPILOT for linux?
[06:07] <GenieUK> Does anyone know if you can use the more moddern 3D effects if running linux in a virtual server in VMware ?
[06:07] <dunsens> which files do i have to backup to keep my gnome configuration .gnome, .gnome2, .gconf ?
[06:07] <znh> GenieUK, perhaps with the vmware display module for Xorg. I'd doubt though
[06:07] <kitche> GenieUK: no since VMware doesn't understand 3d drivers really
[06:08] <GenieUK> ok thanks both just wanted to check that before I spent hours trying :P
[06:08] <oliver_g_> wizo: (i suppose you don't have copy/paste between the IRC window and vmware?)
[06:08] <kukman>    (  )    
[06:08] <kitche> zanner: xpilot.org most likely
[06:08] <wizo> oliver_g_, my last attempt pasted some idiot who was thought i was a girl and tried to pick me up
[06:08] <zanner> ok fine, i writted xpilote on google, thanx
[06:09] <wizo> but lemme try again
[06:09] <oliver_g_> zanner: (there's an xpilot package for ubuntu, in the "universe" repository)
[06:09] <oliver_g_> zanner: (try "apt-get install xpilot")
[06:09] <MaGIc2laNTern> How can I install Ubuntu from an ISO using Windows? Without burning a CD and without downloading ISO (I already have it).
[06:10] <kitche> MaGIc2laNTern: get wubi it's unofficial but does what you want
[06:10] <shk> does anyone know how to make xscreensaver not use animations?   (ie closing xscreensaver)
[06:10] <MaGIc2laNTern> kitche, no it is not.
[06:10] <MaGIc2laNTern> kitche, it allows to _download_ the ISO.
[06:10] <MaGIc2laNTern> kitche, even if I already have it.
[06:10] <wizo> oliver_g_, i fail :(
[06:11] <markelhas> hi ppl can i change my ubuntu disk partition to have one for home?
[06:11] <zanner> olivier & kitche : thank you a lot, i made the same error on synaptic:)
[06:11] <newguy> yo, hey everynow and then sound dies in fiesty, for banshee and other apps, whats up with that?
[06:11] <kitche> MaGIc2laNTern: well that's what you want you can't do it any other way besides using a virtual machine software
[06:12] <akincer> Dual monitor support via restricted nvidia and open nv driver for the GFX 5200 are broken in Gutsy when using the Screens and Graphics utility. I get "The greeter application appears to be crashing. Attempting to use a different one." Anyone else see that?
[06:12] <flush> yo
[06:12] <flush> my apache access.log file keeps being rotated by logrotate, therefore i loose previous logging when i run the log analyzer
[06:12] <MaGIc2laNTern> kitche, then what if I already have another Linux distribution installed? Can I add an ubuntu installer kernel to my loader somehow?
[06:13] <flush> is there a walkaroung to this
[06:13] <oliver_g_> wizo: this command should tell us from which dhcp server you got that address: "grep dhcp-server /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth0.leases"
[06:13] <flush> stop logrotate to rotate apache logs
[06:13] <kitche> MaGIc2laNTern: yes but not though an iso that I know of you have to unpck the iso to do what you want
[06:13] <flush> without having the log file reaching 30gb
[06:13] <MaGIc2laNTern> kitche, oh thanks.
[06:13] <markelhas> !ubuntu install
[06:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu install - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:14] <mpeters> hi all. is there a good place to go to see what projects are in the works for ubuntu?
[06:14] <zanner> olivier : must i get sdl or x11 package on my ubunthu
[06:14] <markelhas> !home
[06:14] <ubotu> Your home folder is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For mounting your home folder on a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome
[06:14] <mpeters> i'm wondering if anyone is or plans on writing a simple internet sharing application or preference option
[06:14] <oliver_g_> zanner: yes, xpilot needs at least sdl and probably also x11
[06:14] <zanner> olivier : must i get sdl or x11 package for install xpilot on my ubunthu
[06:14] <foxiness> mpeters: yes launchpad.net
[06:14] <a514> anyone using istanbul ?!
[06:14] <oliver_g_> zanner: but the installer should suggest that automatically
[06:14] <mpeters> thanks :D
[06:14] <wizo> oliver_g_, option dhcp-server-identifier 5.0.0.1; <== this line is repeated 7 times
[06:15] <kitche> mpeters: there already is an option it's called iptables, firestarter which is a frontend for iptables
[06:15] <oliver_g_> wizo: that's strange
[06:15] <The_Lord_Illidan> Hey, does anyone know if I can get Banshee to look like Amarok with the artist collection?
[06:15] <wizo> hmm =/
[06:15] <The_Lord_Illidan> As, in automatically group artists under the sidebar?
[06:16] <finalbeta> paste

[06:16] <wizo> oliver_g_, i don't think it's my router one either
[06:16] <oliver_g_> wizo: do you have Hamachi running?
[06:16] <wizo> oliver_g_, :o i have it installed on my host computer, but not running
[06:17] <oliver_g_> wizo: I could imagine that Hamachi is the dhcp server that gave you this address :-)
[06:17] <The_Lord_Illidan> No one knows? Ok..
[06:17] <johncoom> hi from downunder
[06:18] <wizo> oliver_g_, i don't have it running now =/
[06:18] <oliver_g_> wizo: because a) I have no idea what "normal" app should give out that IP, and b) google turns up some articles about that (with "dhcp 5.0.0.1")
[06:18] <wizo> can i change it?
[06:18] <oliver_g_> wizo: i have no idea...
[06:18] <oliver_g_> wizo: maybe there's a Hamachi channel?
[06:18] <wizo> but there is the Hamachi thing in my network connections for the host machine
[06:19] <kdeuser^> Hey...

[06:20] <mpeters> thank you kitche
[06:20] <oliver_g_> wizo: I have no idea how Hamachi installs itself; but i would remove the Hamachi stuff from the network adapter(s) under windows
[06:21] <oliver_g_> wizo: but i don't know how much is broken afterwards :-)
[06:21] <tsairox_> sorry will do
[06:21] <wizo> yea.. >.<
[06:21] <oliver_g_> wizo: or, you can try fiddling with the network settings in vmware

[06:36] <RivaeAerya> Guys, it was upgrading to Kubuntu Gutsy, and then it asked me to remove packages, and then it crashed.... and now what do i do? my pc hasn't rebooted, hasn't removed those packages, and all that stuff
[06:38] <The_Joe_> Hello, I'm currently having a problem installing Feisty on my Acer Aspire 3050, as soon as I get to the Install button, it freezes on 15% "Detecting file systems..." the weird thing is, it worked perfectly on my 6 year old PC
[06:39] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, does it have sata? could be a problem, try either the alternate install or gutsy rc, or wait 4 days until gutsy is released
[06:39] <smo> hi i have icon in the systray launching after 2 or 3 minutes any idears...???
[06:39] <The_Joe_> I'm going to pretend I know what Sata is. I've heard it... it's familliar...
[06:39] <smo> i start gnome hop no decoration no wifi .... 2 minute later they all come up and works fine...
[06:40] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, no pretending
[06:40] <The_Joe_> Ok
[06:40] <The_Joe_> ^^
[06:41] <MasterShrek> well i would suggest one of those other options
[06:42] <The_Joe_> What do you mean by "does it have sata"? My hardware knowledge is well, crap
[06:42] <oliver_g_> smo: since when does that happen?
[06:42] <wizo> hey, what do i install to get header files like stdio.h and such?
[06:42] <ZAPALEN> alen

[06:42] <wizo> ahh ok
[06:42] <abhi> which is best alternative of ms frontpage in ubuntu?
[06:42] <The_Joe_> Oh and, are wireless connections supposed to work in LiveCD? Or are they disabled? I'd like to know if I can access my router before I install it
[06:43] <MasterShrek> abhi, straight html :)
[06:43] <ZAPALEN> hi
[06:43] <kitche> The_Joe_: it should work if your wireless is supported
[06:43] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, depends, u may need firmware for some cards
[06:43] <The_Joe_> It's not a card - USB Adapter
[06:43] <oliver_g_> abhi: I would have suggested NVU, but it seems there's no ubuntu package for that!?
[06:43] <The_Joe_> Belkin G+ MIMO
[06:43] <abhi> oliver_g_, ok
[06:44] <defrysk> abhi, kompozer

[06:47] <abhi> oliver_g_, : ok

[06:48] <bmt2> can anyone help ?
[06:48] <kom0dor> Lerris: should be able to edit the services that start up? preferences->administration->services
[06:48] <gnurph> i have ntfs-3g installed, but my NTFS USB drive is considered to be "read-only" by Ubuntu?  I did a sudo and then tried to chown it, but it won't change the ownership from "root" and allow me to write to it.   Ideas?
[06:48] <Lerris> thanks kom0dor
[06:49] <Lerris> it looks .like you need some sdl libraries bmt2
[06:49] <smultron> is Suspend mode still shaky on Ubuntu? i can't get my desktop to wake up :(

[06:50] <oliver_g_> you know, that would be a nice extension to the command-not-found magic: a magic that says "lib xyz not found - run this-and-that command to install"!

[06:54] <oliver_g_> Pumpitup: whoops ;-)
[06:55] <gnurph> i have ntfs-3g installed, but my NTFS USB drive is considered to be "read-only" by Ubuntu?  I did a sudo and then tried to chown it, but it won't change the ownership from "root" and allow me to write to it.   Ideas?
[06:55] <smo> mont it with ntfs-3g
[06:55] <Lerris1> i disabled gdm in services (gutsy), in reference to the previous helpful reply, and it decided i wanted out of X right now.

[06:59] <ChupaChups> hello, where do I get good fast drivers for an old NVIDIA graphics card (GeForce MX-200)?
[06:59] <Null_Session> can anyone help with fixing this error for VirtualBox?  VR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED
[06:59] <Lerris1> the is a legacy set of nvidia drivers in the application tree.. not sure exactly which cards that applies to
[06:59] <kitche> ChupaChups: check to see if it's supported by legacy
[07:00] <bmt2> the game installed...but it is very, very choppy to say the least
[07:00] <ChupaChups> what legacy?
[07:00] <gnurph> smo:  i'm getting "device or resource busy"
[07:00] <kitche> ChupaChups: nvidia-glx-legacy
[07:00] <bmt2> why is this..i have a dual core laptop with 2 gigs of ram
[07:00] <bmt2> i have a intel video chip
[07:00] <The_Joe_> Aaaaagh it just won't install -.-
[07:00] <smo> yeah umount it first
[07:00] <ChupaChups> how do I do this?
[07:00] <seanh> Problem: how to automatically start an application at login, if the app needs to be run as sudo? The app in question is KDE's wlassistant, but under ubuntu
[07:00] <smo> and exit for it before (in nautilus terminal..)
[07:01] <smo> ntfs-3g installed right?
[07:01] <kitche> bmt2: because you havea n intel video chip?
[07:01] <smo> you user added to fuse group ?
[07:01] <oliver_g_> sjkwizard: what exactly are you trying to do?
[07:01] <gnurph> smo:  I tried that - now it says it can't find the resource "No such file or directory"; yes, ntfs-3g is installed.
[07:01] <bmt2> kitche: is that the answer or are you asking a question ?
[07:01] <oliver_g_> sjkwizard: you can find some lat/lon value in Google Maps (maps.google.com)
[07:01] <gnurph> smo:  user added to fuse group?
[07:01] <kitche> bmt2: that's the anwser intel videos chips aren't known for gaming

[07:10] <sense> RivaeAerya: may be there is a better method, like skel files present somewhere in filesystem
[07:10] <steve> The_Joe_: that error meant your wifi card has the broadcom chipset and it isn't working
[07:11] <sense> RivaeAerya: Check the files inside .kde and .qt may be they give some clue

[07:15] <arang2> guys i have a question that always pops, i used feisty and automatix to get decent fonts on firefox, but im in gutsy now and automatix for gutsy isnt out and for some other reasons im like wary from using automatix again so what could i do to get the same font quality in gutsy
[07:15] <steve> The_Joe_: you are trying to install ubuntu on a box, right?
[07:16] <sense> Leon_home: that means it has not loaded fully, check if the CD you have is proper
[07:16] <The_Joe_> steve: Laptop.
[07:16] <asteroid> on featy which depot add/use to have the "seamonkey" suite (iceape if my info are right) ? thx
[07:16] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, i can help u get that working, download this file: http://www.mediafire.com/?bqn8x4eancv and extract it to /lib/firmware
[07:16] <asteroid> feasty*
[07:16] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: As soon as I get past my installation freeze
[07:16] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, those errorcs about bcm43xx_microcode are just for your wirless card not having firmware
[07:17] <The_Joe_> Which at the moment is my primary problem
[07:17] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, i know, like i said before try the alternate install cd
[07:17] <NotSure> ok folks, gconf-editor looks like windows registry editor. What key do I have to modify in order to add my program to the startup?
[07:17] <Leon_home> sense: the live cd is good (i already used the cd on other computers)
[07:17] <The_Joe_> I'll give it a shot but Alternate never worked before
[07:18] <oliver_g_> NotSure: (maybe the editor under System -> Settings -> Session is easier)
[07:18] <Zambezi> Is it possible to see when a packages was installed?
[07:18] <sense> Leon_home:can u see the log ? Boot with options 'quiet splash ' removed
[07:19] <Leon_home> sense: i am new at ubuntu can u write me the steps how to  boot with options removed ?
[07:19] <jamesrdorn> Using 7.10 pre-release... I seem to be having troubles with xorg.conf. Seems when I create it or edit it, Xwindows fails to start, and the failsafe screen opens and will create a xorg.conf.failsafe, however the only way to get X windows to start again is to delete xorg.conf*. What's strange is if I use the screen resolution prefrences, it never writes to xorg.conf Does ubuntu use an alt config file to control xwindows prefs?
[07:19] <arang2> guys i have a question that always pops, i used feisty and automatix to get decent fonts on firefox, but im in gutsy now and automatix for gutsy isnt out and for some other reasons im like wary from using automatix again so what could i do to get the same font quality in gutsy
[07:19] <MasterShrek> !gutsy
[07:19] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 18th, 2007) | It is development software, and as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1 | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon for more information
[07:19] <MasterShrek> !automatix
[07:19] <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.

[07:20] <Lerris1> don't mess it up, lest booting your computer would be difficult
[07:20] <sense>  Leon_home: When u boot the CD, you get to choose Install , see the grub option which says advanced options
[07:20] <oliver_g_> jamesrdorn: here on my Gutsy system it has an /etc/X11/xorg.conf... but maybe that question is better asked in #ubuntu+1 ?
[07:20] <Ward1983> is there software to do some sort of fake standby? (for lets say if the real standby is not possible)

[07:32] <jamescarr> okay... the job name is like more than 60,000 characters long
[07:32] <jamescarr> can  I kill a range of process ids?????
[07:32] <jamescarr> I forgot to include the "close on exit" action to my app... so everytime I closed it it stuck around in memory
[07:32] <jamescarr> I now have like 100 instances of my app in memory and my computer is SLOW
[07:32] <peertje888> is there a specific file which has the location of all firmware in it?
[07:32] <jamescarr> quick quick quick
[07:32] <vladi_> hello everyone
[07:32] <astro76> jamescarr, killall programname
[07:32] <vladi_> i have a problem...would anyone be cool enough to help me out?
[07:33] <oliver_g_> jamescarr: according to manpage, killall usually only looks at the first 15 characters of the given name
[07:33] <vladi_> ANYONE? :D
[07:33] <axjv> vladi: Just state your problem.
[07:33] <dag_> In Ubuntu 7.10 as I have the Norwegian language in Gnome and keyboard, under "Places" it says right as "Skrivebord" meaning Desktop in norwegian. But as I click it, it goes to the folder "Desktop" not "Skrivebord" folder linked to the desktop. Confusing, I can't seem to fix this.
[07:33] <vladi_> ok
[07:33] <peertje888> is there a specific file which has the location of all firmware in it?
[07:34] <hhp2k> Can someone help me with Synergy? :(
[07:34] <vladi_> My problem is: I can't open the "Documents and Settings" on the partition where Vista is installed from ubuntu
[07:34] <vladi_> why is that?
[07:34] <Fryguy--> hhp2k: ask a real question
[07:34] <vladi_> all the other directories open normaly

[07:34] <muszek> hi... I'm trying to get a proper resolution on Fujitsu Amilo Pro v3515.  When I (re)start X server, the screen goes all messed up for few seconds and then goes login screen.  I can choose either 800x600 or 640x480.  Should be 1280x800.  Any hints?  I didn't find anything on the web.
[07:34] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse

[07:34] <IhateCLI> MasterShrek: Ooooh... Are you asking me to elaborate on my hatred of the CLI?
[07:34] <axjv> !ntfs | vladi_
[07:34] <ubotu> vladi_: please see above
[07:35] <vladi_> i told you
[07:35] <vladi_> that the other folders on that partition open normaly
[07:35] <ZiRo`-> can i run ubuntu in a vm on windows or something?
[07:35] <vladi_> only the Documents and Settings
[07:35] <kitche> ZiRo`-: yes
[07:35] <RootSnatch_> hey which do you guys like better, banshee or amarok?
[07:35] <MasterShrek> IhateCLI, yes
[07:35] <vladi_> seem like it's empty?!
[07:35] <hhp2k> Fryguy--: Well, I have a million. It just refuses to work. QuickSynergy and Synergy are installed, all the libraries, dependencies, and development files are installed, and everything is online and ready, but it just won't.. work.

[07:35] <Doc_Thunder> Hey guys
[07:35] <Doc_Thunder> do you remember when people used to use the word "lamer" on irc all the time
[07:35] <ZiRo`-> well i'm interested in using ubuntu, but i like my gaming
[07:35] <Doc_Thunder> what ever happened to that?
[07:36] <kitche> !offtopic | Doc_Thunder
[07:36] <ubotu> Doc_Thunder: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

[07:37] <hhp2k> Fryguy--: Might be a good idea next time =D Thanks
[07:37] <Doc_Thunder> Are most of you guys using gaim or Xorg?
[07:37] <The_Joe_> Select and install software
[07:37] <The_Joe_> 6%
[07:37] <Paddy_EIRE> hey guys, I'm trying to fix my mates gdm it seems to be positioned differently on the screen than the desktop? I have to press auto adjust on my monitor on gdm then once logged in I must do the same again?
[07:37] <Fryguy--> Doc_Thunder: gaim or xorg? those are 2 completely different pieces of software...
[07:38] <The_Joe_> Yeah it's been stuck here 10 minutes...
[07:38] <mrga_cro> hello
[07:38] <Doc_Thunder> Fry: Yeah, let me rephrase, what do you use for IRC on linux ?
[07:38] <Paddy_EIRE> although the resolutions are clearly the same
[07:38] <Fryguy--> Doc_Thunder: irssi
[07:38] <boogeykid> hello
[07:38] <MasterShrek> Doc_Thunder, xchat
[07:38] <oliver_g_> Doc_Thunder: pidgin (ex-gaim)
[07:38] <dag_> MasterShrek: I've installed Wine and fixed Config to XP but why won't .exe files not open?
[07:38] <Doc_Thunder> I'm using xchat
[07:38] <Doc_Thunder> actually, i'm running mirc from wine
[07:38] <Doc_Thunder> j/k
[07:38] <The_Joe_> dag_: Try opening them using the wine command
[07:39] <dag_> The_Joe_: What is the wine command?
[07:39] <The_Joe_> wine path/to/program
[07:39] <MasterShrek> dag_, are you double-clicking them? or running then from command line?
[07:39] <The_Joe_> Or Right Click - Open With other Application
[07:39] <Doc_Thunder> i gotta try irssi
[07:39] <The_Joe_> And type wine
[07:39] <MasterShrek> wine program.exe
[07:39] <dag_> MasterShrek: double click
[07:40] <Fryguy--> Doc_Thunder: irssi is imo by far the best CLI irc client available
[07:40] <ZiRo`-> ive got the amd64 fiesty, is it compatable with intel64?
[07:40] <HaPpYfAcE> does anyone knows about this error >>> Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device
[07:40] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, still stuck huh? how new is the laptop? (ive heard acers are notorious for this kind of thing)
[07:40] <mrga_cro> I have installed one Windows program and when i start it ,  nothing happens. I got this install the Windows version of Mono to run .NET executables
[07:40] <MasterShrek> ZiRo`-, yes
[07:40] <Fryguy--> ZiRo`-: yes
[07:40] <mrga_cro> so what should i do
[07:40] <The_Joe_> Agh
[07:40] <kitche> HaPpYfAcE: yes try the -x11 driver for mplayer
[07:40] <ZiRo`-> cheers thanks
[07:40] <The_Joe_> It goes and freezes
[07:40] <Leon_home> sense: thanks i solve the problem . (press f6 on installation , add this line : all_generic_ide

[07:40] <zleap> hi
[07:40] <Doc_Thunder> Fryguy: Synaptic doesn't have IRSSI
[07:40] <IhateCLI> MasterShrek: The CLI has a learning curve steeper than the tangent of pi/2, for one. You have to memorise every single command for it to be effective, there is next to no opportunity for trial and error or exploring the interface, it's designed for a computer, not a human. It focuses absolutely on all the things that computers suck badly at, and the human mind excels. It is designed precisely so that all that is good, unique, and holy about the human intellect i
[07:40] <IhateCLI> ht blasphemous to me, and to add insult to the much greater, gravely injurng insult, it is extremely counter-productive *unless* you have memorized every single command.
[07:41] <Fryguy--> Doc_Thunder: yes it does
[07:41] <HaPpYfAcE> kitche: let me try it
[07:41] <zleap> i am working on a poster to promote ubuntu in general
[07:41] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, go for the gutsy rc then, or maybe just wait until its released
[07:41] <peertje888> how come my ubuntu doesn't boot up faster then xp?
[07:41] <vladi_> i found out myseld
[07:41] <vladi_> myself*
[07:41] <mrga_cro> somebody
[07:41] <ZiRo`-> im gonna boot it from the cd just to have a quick play :P
[07:41] <ZiRo`-> actually, no i'm not i cba
[07:41] <Doc_Thunder> spelled it wrong
[07:41] <Doc_Thunder> irssi
[07:41] <Doc_Thunder> i had irsii
[07:41] <Fryguy--> peertje888: why would you expect it to?
[07:42] <vladi_> PEOPLE
[07:42] <vladi_> GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND
[07:42] <riotkittie> oh please.
[07:42] <Fryguy--> vladi_: i'd point them to lycos :)
[07:42] <kitche> vladi_: that's not something to say in this channel :)
[07:42] <vladi_> Fryguy--: isnt it the same shit? ;D
[07:42] <doca_thunda> Fry, I don't like this as much
[07:42] <Fryguy--> vladi_: somewhat, but I work at lycos :)
[07:42] <oliver_g_> IhateCLI: now given how much you wrote to spell out yozur cli-hate, i have doubts about whether that's your _true_ opinion :-)

[07:42] <ubotu> vladi_: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:42] <doca_thunda> I can't see the names on the side of the screen
[07:43] <Pumpitup> hmm question if u re-write the mbr with win xp cd using the ubuntu live cd ill still be able to re-install dual boot grub on my sda?
[07:43] <Fryguy--> doca_thunda: of course not, you haven't read the manual or learned hwo to use it at all
[07:43] <Leon_home> !dd
[07:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:43] <vladi_> oh i'm sorry
[07:43] <RivaeAerya> How do i set the KDE artwork back to normal (the Kubuntu defaults) without deleting all my settings that i still need?
[07:43] <erin> Hi, all! I need someone to tell me if I'm correct about something: If I want to change my wireless network name, do I only change it in the router? I'm in "enable roaming" mode, but iwconfig shows my current essid (which I want to change). Any advice? Thanks!
[07:43] <vladi_> it seems there are children on the chan
[07:43] <kitche> doca_thunda: maybe it's folded up I know by default xchat has the nicks hidden in a small folded up thig
[07:43] <IhateCLI> oliver_g_: What? You mean to say I have a love-hate relationship with CLI?
[07:43] <Leon_home> can someone recommend me / give me ... good link for
[07:43] <vladi_> i will mind my words :))
[07:43] <Leon_home> "DD" command
[07:43] <riotkittie> </ - has not memorized every single command, or it's syntax but i am  more comfortable, and tend to feel more productive  on the CLI than i am/do in the GUI for the most part.
[07:43] <Fryguy--> Leon_home: dd is part of every base linux install
[07:43] <oliver_g_> IhateCLI: oh, beware!
[07:43] <The_Joe_> Agh
[07:44] <doca_thunda> Yeah, I noticed that about xchat too. All the names were pretty much hidden.
[07:44] <Lerris1> afaik essid needs to be changed everywhere, but then some machines may just join any essid
[07:44] <RivaeAerya> Anyone?
[07:44] <peertje888> I still have the request_firmware failed: Reason -2 error
[07:44] <oliver_g_> IhateCLI: never would i assume anything about relations (it's thin ice ;-)
[07:44] <omega_> i need help whit my first installation apache server
[07:44] <doca_thunda> well, at least i'm saving resources
[07:44] <MasterShrek> IhateCLI, your argument is not really true, the command line interacts exactly as a user does with a computer, except with a keyboard input and not constant mouse clicking, its good because you can run programs with different options much easier, and its not that important to remember different tags, just -h will list options and so will using man.  as for trial and error, you can do as much as you want as a user, as much tri
[07:44] <MasterShrek> al and error as you can with no worries about screwing up your system. my though on this is that there is no reason for anyone to knock the command line because its much more powerful than any gui, and if u learn it well enough you can do things much faster than point and click
[07:44] <vladi_> oh my god
[07:44] <vladi_> i didn't read that much for years
[07:44] <vladi_> :)
[07:44] <omega_> where i can get help??
[07:45] <Elite> !help Logitech Clicksmart 310
[07:45] <vladi_> haven't read even ;)
[07:45] <Lerris1> i was using fluxbox when i had gentoo
[07:45] <RivaeAerya> How do i set the KDE artwork back to normal (the Kubuntu defaults) without deleting all my settings that i still need?
[07:45] <Elite> Hey guys.
[07:45] <riotkittie> seriously. the cli has saved me more than once.  :D
[07:45] <Elite> I need a hand with something.
[07:45] <Lerris1> in some ways i miss it.. (truly minimal wm)
[07:45] <Leon_home> can someone recommend me on good graphic software for clone disks ? (like parition magic)
[07:45] <oliver_g_> Lerris1: I suppose fluxbox is still available as package in ubuntu
[07:45] <vladi_> Lerris1: i have the flux thing installed on my gentoo box :) it's cool
[07:46] <Lerris1> haven't looked, though i might
[07:46] <Pumpitup> Leon_home : gparted
[07:46] <doca_thunda> I've really started using the terminal hardcore latley, I even use a terminal rss reader
[07:46] <riotkittie> Lerris1: its in the repos
[07:46] <oliver_g_> Lerris1: but you won't have nautilus (integrated)... or network-manager... or all the other niceties of Gnome/KDE :-P
[07:46] <IhateCLI> oliver_g_: That's like me having a love-hate relationship with some fat, ugly, stupid guy I knew in school. Not that I have anything against gays, but he's simply not attractive, even under assumptiong of homosexuality.
[07:46] <Lerris1> you say that as if it is a bad thing?
[07:46] <Fryguy--> i'm a programmer so I use the CLI for pretty much everything except web browsing
[07:46] <astro76> Leon_home, partimage.... http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page
[07:46] <pvl1> are there any speech recignition apps for ubuntu
[07:46] <Leon_home> Pumpitup: i know that gparted can divide partitions but can it clone disks & partitions ?
[07:47] <The_Joe_> Thanks, Ubunt is now installing
[07:47] <The_Joe_> Bye
[07:47] <Scunizi> Is there a way to share contact/address data in Evolution via Kontact? I figured out how to share the same calendar between the two and figured it would be just as easy for the Contacts.... NOT!
[07:47] <Lerris1> i've never used gparted, but for cloneing drives/partitions dd just works
[07:47] <Scunizi> Lerris1, so does partimage.
[07:47] <Fryguy--> i used gparted last week, took 50 hours to resize a partition that partiionmagic woul dhave done in like 25 minutes ;(
[07:47] <cidwel> i have a question, if i want to access to a directory in a samba network, what I should type as an user and password with my windows xp if the samba requires a password and my xp only have the administrator account without set a password?
[07:47] <Fryguy--> i have NO idea what happened lol
[07:48] <oliver_g_> IhateCLI: I won't respond to your provocations with any kind of sensible argument :-P because then this channel would be flooded with (my) hots arguing - as a rule i try to avoid that at least in all #ubuntu* channels
[07:48] <RivaeAerya> How do i set the KDE artwork back to normal (the Kubuntu defaults) without deleting all my settings that i still need?
[07:48] <ny00123> Hi and OMG!
[07:48] <Leon_home> does gparted come with the live cd ?
[07:48] <RivaeAerya> IhateCLI, oliverg, all: #ubuntu-offtoic
[07:48] <RivaeAerya> offtopic*
[07:48] <MasterShrek> RivaeAerya, set them back manually
[07:48] <RivaeAerya> MasterShrek: to what?
[07:48] <Fryguy--> Leon_home: gparted has it's own livecd, i'm not sure if it's included in ubuntu's or not
[07:48] <ny00123> All of the icons on the desktop have reappeared with the .desktop extension, can't be executed, and no there's no icon to identify
[07:48] <ny00123> (apart from some default icons)
[07:48] <MasterShrek> RivaeAerya, i dont know, whatever they came as lol
[07:49] <RivaeAerya> MasterShrek: i don't know which those are
[07:49] <ny00123> Solution: Wait for Ubuntu 7.10 and install?
[07:49] <nickrud> ny00123: came in late, but have you tried killall nautilus?
[07:49] <IhateCLI> MasterShrek: Well, first off, my "argument" is fundamentally subjective. So it can't really be untrue... But anyway, the -h list is confusing. You have to read descriptions, and learn what all the crazy jargon means and what not... With a half-decent GUI you can just look for something resembling a folder and instantly know what it does is "Open". This is also much faster than reading -h's. Using the CLI is like solving geometry problems in prose, text only. It 
[07:49] <IhateCLI> 't want to.
[07:49] <philippe_> hello
[07:50] <riotkittie> mmm. clack-clack-clack.
[07:50] <zleap> i have just uploaded a first attempt at a poster at www.zleap.net under downloads
[07:50] <Fryguy--> IhateCLI: if you dont' know how to use a cli program, obviously you aren't going ot like using it. The fact of the matter is, the keyboard is always faster than the mouse, so if you take the time to learn cli programs you can be faster with them than with equivalent gui programs
[07:50] <MasterShrek> IhateCLI, i guess its the difference between the user and the user+
[07:50] <takas> /q jusski
[07:50] <zleap> can someone have a look (have taken text / picturs from site and put stuff together)
[07:50] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Hi everyone, I installed Windows on one Harddrive when it was set to primary. Uninstalled that HD and Then I installed Linux on one harddrive when it was set to primary. What do I do so that whenever I boot up my computer, I can choose between them?
[07:50] <zleap> please
[07:51] <dag_> MasterShrek: Lightroom works now, but damn so slooow!
[07:51] <nickrud> ohh, one upmanship. They're both tools, have their strengths and weaknesses. Identify what works for you and use it.
[07:51] <oliver_g_> (hmpf... the disk is still in the cupboard... i'd feel the urge to cry every time i see it :-(( )
[07:51] <MasterShrek> dag_, there are tweaks and stuff, but i havent used wine in awhile i wouldnt know what to do, check through wineconfig i guess
[07:51] <Fryguy--> [MH] NarcismLapto: reinstall both operating systems while all hard drives are present is the easiest solution (though it takes a while). Better by somewhat harder solution would be to fuck around with your grub configuration
[07:51] <geers> er det noen som er norsk her
[07:52] <oliver_g_> !no
[07:52] <ubotu> Hvis du vil diskutere Ubuntu paa norsk, venligst gaa til #ubuntu-no. Takk!
[07:52] <IhateCLI> MasterShrek: I'm a biochem undergrad. I can't spend all my time being user+. Sure, the CLI is great assuming perfect knowledge of both systems, but I don't think most people have perfect knowledge of Linux. And no, text is *not* always faster. Draw a picture of a flashlight with text, go on. =p
[07:52] <nickrud> [MH] NarcismLapto: install the windows drive as first, ubuntu as second. Boot the live cd, chroot to the linux drive, and run sudo update-grub && grub-install /dev/hda
[07:52] <geers> thanks, sorry
[07:52] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Fryguy, is there some way to play with the boot.ini when my Windows harddrive is set to my primary
[07:52] <MarcN> I'm starting f-spot and seeing messages "Starting new FSpot server\nCan't get a connection to the dbus. Trying again..." over and over and no window starting up.  Ideas?
[07:52] <ny00123> nickrud, a reboot didn't help
[07:52] <nickrud> [MH] NarcismLapto: you'll also need to edit /etc/fstab in the ubuntu partition
[07:52] <hhp2k> Fryguy--: You know the part in the Synergy HowTo that tells you to make the "12synergy" file? What type of file is it that I'm creating?
[07:53] <[MH] NarcismLapto> nickrud,Fryguy, my problem is, whenever my windows HD is in my computer, linux won't install, it crashes, I tried 3 versions, and different types of CD's
[07:53] <ny00123> in addition, when I try to click a pdf file (or a symlink to it, doesn't seem to matter)
[07:53] <ny00123> I get:
[07:53] <nickrud> ny00123: when did this start happening, do you remember doing anything just before?
[07:53] <Fryguy--> [MH] NarcismLapto: not really, windows can't boot linux, linux can boot windows, so you need to go the *other* way
[07:53] <oliver_g_> IhateCLI: so, i thought as biochem undergraduate you're doing serious work, instead of drawing flashlights?! ;-)
[07:53] <ny00123> "Cannot open /.../...pdf: No application sutiable for automatic installation is available for handling this kidn of file."
[07:53] <MasterShrek> IhateCLI, i dont sit aroudn and draw pictures, and im have nowhere near perfect knowledge of linux, but i can use the command line and do things in 5 minutes that would take me 2 hours to do in a gui, and most of it probably wouldnt even be possible in a gui

[07:54] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Fryguy, the HD my windows was on, crashed and messed up a few times, so Linux doesn't like it, but Windows doesn't seem to mind
[07:54] <Fryguy--> hhp2k: it's a text file...
[07:54] <nickrud> ny00123: that thing about gconf, you saw that as an error?
[07:54] <MasterShrek> =P
[07:54] <oliver_g_> IhateCLI: :-D
[07:54] <ny00123> nickrud, I think I've just tried executing GNU Backgammon via a launcher I've made
[07:54] <axjv> !stepmania
[07:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about stepmania - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:54] <axjv> =(
[07:54] <ny00123> then suddenly, all of the icons became the actual .desktop files
[07:54] <ny00123> (which have always been in fact, as seen from a terminal)
[07:54] <doca_thunda> So to jump from window 2 window in irssi you hit alt-a
[07:54] <doca_thunda> thats my tip
[07:55] <Fryguy--> [MH] NarcismLapto: yes, and that doesn't change the fact that windows can't boot linux
[07:55] <ny00123> I guess the best solution is to wait 'till Thursday or so and reinstall Ubuntu, this time version 7.10.
[07:55] <hhp2k> Fryguy--: Well yes, but is it .txt? Or .bash?
[07:55] <riotkittie> ah. i usully alt # :P
[07:55] <Fryguy--> hhp2k: it's nothing
[07:55] <erin> Hi again! Could anyone tell me exactly how to change my wireless essid? I know how to do it in the router, but I'm reading conflicting instructions about how to do it in Ubuntu.
[07:55] <hhp2k> Nothing? Okay.
[07:55] <nickrud> ny00123: I'd log out, switch to a virtual console (clt-alt-f1) , log in , make sure gconf is not running (killall gconfd) and then rm .gconf*
[07:55] <Fryguy--> extensions dont' matter for the most part in linux, go look at the directory they have you putting it into for examples..
[07:55] <geers> does anyone know a good url to encrypt my harddisk
[07:55] <MasterShrek> erin, sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid <essid>
[07:55] <IhateCLI> MasterShrek: Yes, CLI is faster for *you*. CLI is however, arguably slower for even "average" expert users, (since a lot of the tasks which you don't need to do, but some people have to do are easier with GUI) and definitely faster for both n00bs, and the user of "average" skill.
[07:55] <ny00123> ok
[07:56] <Fryguy--> geers: truecrypt is the one and only solution
[07:56] <m1r> erin , iwconfig wlan0 essid youressidname
[07:56] <ny00123> trying nickrud
[07:56] <geers> thanks Fryguy
[07:56] <Fryguy--> IhateCLI: yes we established that a while ago
[07:56] <Fryguy--> do you have a point at all? or are you just trolling?
[07:56] <nickrud> ny00123: also, creating a new user and seeing if it's desktop works is a good check to see if it's a user config issue
[07:56] <erin> MasterShrek and m1r: Thanks! Is that the only place, besides the router's setup IP page?
[07:57] <riotkittie> IhateCLI: and you have polled a sufficient amount of "average" expert users to be able to make such a statement, I suppose?
[07:57] <MasterShrek> IhateCLI, the world is brainwashed by windows that a gui can be used for everything
[07:57] <IhateCLI> Fryguy--: Eh? Sorry. MasterShrek appeared to be interesting in my reasons. I'll leave if I'm causing you guys trouble.
[07:57] <riotkittie> i use my GUI to wash my laundry.
[07:57] <cidwel> cups says that when i trying to print something "Can not get the ticket cache for root"
[07:57] <cidwel> what means? >_>
[07:57] <nickrud> would this darned cli vs gui pseudo-controversy please exit?
[07:57] <m1r> erin, if only essid , then yes
[07:57] <zoidberg_> hey guys...i just downloaded a torrent file and supposedly i have to sign up for some bullshit offers in order to get the password to unrar this file
[07:57] <dag_> MasterShrek: Did not work so good afterall. For a photographer, do you have a suggestion what kind of album/quick editor tool you can use?
[07:57] <ny00123> Apart from resetting some of the settings (e.g. gnome-bar color)
[07:57] <ny00123> no change
[07:57] <zoidberg_> is there anyway i can bypass the password thing to unrar it?
[07:58] <Mumphster> Can anyone please help me get my sound to work? Everything is detected ( I think ) and unmuted yet I still cant hear anything
[07:58] <Fryguy--> zoidberg_: wrong channel
[07:58] <Fryguy--> zoidberg_: and no you can't
[07:58] <MasterShrek> Fryguy--, i did inquire as to why he hates the cli, we coulda moved to offtopic i spose
[07:58] <kitche> !language | zoidberg_
[07:58] <smultron> zoidberg_: no, and don't sign up for anything either
[07:58] <ubotu> zoidberg_: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:58] <IhateCLI> MasterShrek: Maybe. But GUI is still easier for some things. Sometimes, for a lot of things.
[07:58] <ny00123> Best solution: Oh well, upgrade to v7.10 ;] 
[07:58] <nickrud> ny00123: try creating a new user, log into that one
[07:58] <kitche> !warez | zoidberg_
[07:58] <ubotu> zoidberg_: piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o
[07:58] <smultron> zoidberg_: it's a scam
[07:58] <riotkittie> if its passworded, its safe to assume ^
[07:58] <zleap> is your speakers plugged in properly and turned up (obvious but easy to miss)
[07:58] <Mumphster> zleap yes
[07:59] <zleap> ok
[07:59] <ny00123> ok created
[07:59] <ny00123> let's try logging in
[07:59] <smultron> ubotu who says all torrents are illegal? :P
[07:59] <kitche> smultron: if it's passwored then it's most likely illegal :)
[07:59] <niina> is there a good HTML/CSS channel on freenode.net?
[07:59] <Fryguy--> #html
[07:59] <riotkittie> nobody said all were illegal
[07:59] <Fryguy--> #css
[07:59] <smultron> kitche: i know, i'm just havin fun :P
[08:00] <smultron> niina: you can try #web but they're usually waaaaaaay off topic :P
[08:01] <neopsyche> gnome refuses to let me use anything but 800x600 when i enable nvidia card
[08:01] <Bneriusus> hello, it is possible to install update on ubuntu, i mean 7.10 RC on my 7.04?? and then update to full 7.10??
[08:01] <neopsyche> can anyone help with this?
[08:01] <ny00123> No change, as "emerge" (new user name) copied .desktop files ==> Appear as .desktop
[08:01] <nickrud> Bneriusus: yes
[08:01] <IhateCLI> Oh well, anyway, I'm off. Sorry for being so anal about the CLI business, it just kinda frustrates me a bit. Ok, A while.
[08:01] <demon_spork> falalalala
[08:01] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, do you have an nvidia config program somewhere in system or something?
[08:01] <ny00123> And a symlink to a pdf file couldn't be loaded for the same reason
[08:01] <Fryguy--> Bneriusus: it's possible, just change what repositories you point to. I certainly wouldn't recommend it
[08:01] <neopsyche> yes i think so
[08:01] <ny00123> Should I remove .gconf* folders from /root ?
[08:02] <Mumphster> Can anyone please help me get my sound to work? Everything is detected ( I think ) and unmuted yet I still cant hear anything
[08:02] <SDugas> Bneriusus: If you want to upgrade to 7.10 rc, open a terminal and type "update-manager -d"
[08:02] <ny00123> ...or wait no, that'd surely be a hyper-disaster
[08:02] <Fryguy--> Mumphster: need more information than "it doesn't work"
[08:02] <Bneriusus> Fryguy--: Why don`t??
[08:02] <Mumphster> Like what Fryguy--
[08:02] <zleap> i don't use ubuntu,  just try and promote it
[08:02] <nickrud> ny00123: it shouldn't matter, those are used when you gksudo <gui program>
[08:02] <Fryguy--> Bneriusus: because it's not officially released, and certainly still has some bugs in it
[08:02] <Scunizi> SDugas, why the -d?  I've read -c?
[08:02] <riotkittie> zleap: how bizarre.
[08:02] <ny00123> let's try...
[08:03] <SDugas> d for update distribution
[08:03] <zleap> whats wrong with that,  well I have debian on at the momebt, it works great
[08:03] <Lorvija> !raid
[08:03] <Fryguy--> Mumphster: like what sound card you have, what settings you are using, are you using analog out or digital out, is the driver being properly detected, etc etc etc. have you searched google yet for your specific sound card and possible issues in ubuntu?
[08:03] <riotkittie> well maybe not bizarre.   :P

[08:03] <HaPpYfAcE> kitche: thanx i did edit my gui.conf and now its working really good
[08:03] <lgc_> Does Windows use UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoding?
[08:03] <Mumphster> Fryguy--, yes and everything is installed. I used alsa and installed the intel8x0 drivers for my onboard nvidia ac97 sound
[08:03] <ny00123> Failure.
[08:03] <Mumphster> yet I still hear nothing
[08:03] <ny00123> Oh well, let's wait for Thursday (or get a beta right now)
[08:03] <zleap> well its pretty easy to give out cd's for ubuntu
[08:03] <Bneriusus> SDugas: thanks
[08:03] <smultron> has anyone successfully setup an encrypted file system with ubuntu? or something that emulates an encrypted filesystem?
[08:03] <ny00123> but I should backup stuff too.
[08:04] <nickrud> ny00123: ok. Strange problem, that. Where'd you put that desktop file you created?
[08:04] <ny00123> at /home/emerge/Desktop
[08:04] <lgc_> smultron, google for 'loop de
[08:04] <lgc_> smultron, google for 'loop device'.
[08:04] <ny00123> I've switched back to ny00123 after the failure
[08:05] <Fryguy--> Mumphster: and have you searched the internet for "ubuntu intel8x0" and followed the various suggestions that are there?
[08:05] <Mumphster> Fryguy--, yes
[08:05] <smultron> lgc_: thanks :)
[08:05] <Mumphster> numerous times
[08:05] <Fryguy--> Mumphster: what specifically have you tried?
[08:05] <lgc_> smultron, NP.
[08:05] <ny00123> This is it, one second
[08:05] <pvl1> is there any speech recignition applications for ubuntu?
[08:05] <ny00123> your system is half-functional
[08:05] <fritz> hi
[08:05] <ny00123> oh well...an upgrade I guess!
[08:05] <nickrud> ny00123: next step for me (if the distro upgrade wasn't so close ;) would be to log into recovery mode (that way I *know* gconfd is not running) and delete emerge/.gconf , .gconfd , .gnome2 ,gnome2_private , .local
[08:05] <zleap> hi
[08:06] <Mumphster> Fryguy--, reinstalling alsa, reinstalling ubuntu, changing the master output thing in the mixer to all the different options and a bunch of other things
[08:06] <fritz> is anyone from Turkey ?
[08:06] <ny00123> wait nickrud
[08:06] <nickrud> ny00123: and the desktop file I'd created
[08:06] <ny00123> I write all of this to /root/emerge.txt
[08:06] <Fryguy--> Mumphster: you turn off esd?
[08:06] <ny00123> so I don't forget ;] 
[08:06] <Lorvija> hey can ubuntu be installed on software raid1 array?
[08:06] <Fryguy--> Lorvija: yes
[08:06] <Mumphster> Fryguy--, where is that at. It sounds familiar but im not sure
[08:06] <Fryguy--> 4th result on google...
[08:07] <ny00123> ok rebooting...
[08:07] <Lorvija> Fryguy--, where i could find some faq/doc/help for that?
[08:07] <Anon7404> nick dani
[08:07] <Fryguy--> Lorvija: google
[08:07] <Mumphster> well then Fryguy-- I probaly did it
[08:07] <Lorvija> Fryguy-- done that last 40 min...
[08:07] <Fryguy--> Mumphster: you realize I can't help you unless you help me?
[08:07] <astro76> !raid | Lorvija
[08:07] <ubotu> Lorvija: 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
[08:07] <Anon7404> nick ?
[08:07] <Mumphster> Fryguy--, whats there to help with. Like I said ive done all of that
[08:08] <Fryguy--> Mumphster: actually you never said anything about disabling esd
[08:08] <astro76> Fryguy--, this is not a "just google it" channel

[08:08] <silent> astro76, I agree, but some things can be responded to by "google it"
[08:08] <LordLimecat> anyone have a second to help me with a script? im trying to pipe output from ps -A|awk into a wait command, or to bring a background process to foreground
[08:08] <Lorvija> astro76 well those links arent for me.. i'm trying to do fresh install... that raidconfigurationhowto is something different as it says..
[08:08] <Mumphster> What im trying to say is that ive spent the last 2 days 'googling it' and nothing has worked
[08:08] <Mumphster> thats why I am here
[08:09] <silent> Mumphster, then you're in the right place
[08:09] <astro76> Lorvija, do you have the alternate install cd? you need that to install on raid
[08:09] <silent> ugh, I cant type... need to cut my nails
[08:09] <nickrud> google's a great tool, if you know 'what' to google for. Offering google links seems a better choice
[08:09] <Mumphster> Yeah silent I know but im not getting what I was expecting, oh well
[08:09] <Fryguy--> Mumphster: I guess I don't know what to tell you then. I use intel8x0 and mine worked out of the box after checking the box to use digital output (since I use optical out to another device)
[08:09] <silent> nickrud, good idea
[08:09] <silent> Mumphster, what are you trying to do?
[08:10] <Lorvija> astro76 i dont have even the server yet... doing preliminary search... so i'll get what i need (:
[08:10] <Fryguy--> silent: he's trying to get sound working with an ac97 onboard soundcard with alsa
[08:10] <demon_spork> What do I need to do to reinstall Grub after installing Vista?
[08:10] <Mumphster> silent, I am trying to get my onboard sound to work
[08:10] <nickrud> !grub | demon_spork
[08:10] <chippy> Mumphster, tried liveCD ?
[08:10] <ubotu> demon_spork: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:10] <kitche> Mumphster: what does lsmod|grep snd_intel8x0 tell you?
[08:10] <Mumphster> one second
[08:10] <Fryguy--> demon_spork: http://www.tipstrs.com/tip/82/Restore-grub-after-installing-windows
[08:11] <ny00123> No help...although I haven't removed any .desktop file -_-
[08:11] <silent> Mumphster, is your sound card detected under lspci and/or the sound gui under system > preferences > sound?
[08:11] <ny00123> (it's very possible that the new configurations are more 'empty' than the defaults)

[08:11] <nickrud> ny00123: ok, also get rid of .nautilus .metacity .config .
[08:11] <Tone> hi there ppl. im using an old/legacy nvidia card and have to install the driver on each reboot. is this a common problem or am i doing sth wrong ?
[08:11] <Mumphster> lgc_, yes
[08:11] <Mumphster> and silent yes its detected
[08:11] <Mumphster> and kitche this is the output
[08:11] <nickrud> ny00123: although, gutsy works pretty darned well :)
[08:11] <Mumphster> http://pastebin.com/ma0c08f6
[08:12] <kitche> Mumphster: is pcm turned up in alsamixer?
[08:12] <silent> Mumphster, have you installed the latest alsa driver and libraries?
[08:12] <lgc_> Mumphster, oh, well... I did too, and I didn't get my ALSA working quite right...:(.
[08:12] <Mumphster> kitche, yes.
[08:12] <ny00123> nickrud, I'm going to get Gutsy soon yeah ;] 
[08:12] <Mumphster> and yeah silent it is
[08:12] <ny00123> or at least planning to
[08:12] <silent> Mumphster, 1.0.15rc3?
[08:12] <lgc_> When is Gutsy officially released?
[08:12] <aleka> checking for DBUS... configure: error:
[08:12] <aleka> *** DBUS 0.62+ is required to build MusicTracker; please make sure you have the

[08:12] <aleka>  Any help on this?? should I compile Dbus for source?
[08:12] <riotkittie> lgc_: 18th
[08:12] <nickrud> gutsy fixed my networking problems, wonderfully.
[08:12] <Mumphster> silent, I am pretty sure but how would I go about checking just to be positive?
[08:13] <kitche> aleka: you need -dev package for dbus
[08:13] <riotkittie> gutsy drove me screaming into the arms of ndiswrapper :|
[08:13] <silent> Mumphster, did you download alsa and install it yourself?
[08:13] <Fryguy--> aleka: apt-get install dbus ??
[08:13] <Fryguy--> or maybe libdbus-1-dev
[08:13] <Mumphster> silent, im pretty sure I did but how would I go about checking
[08:13] <lgc_> riotkittie, I certainly hope it's better than Edgy and Feisty. I am frankly disappointed with Ubuntu after Dapper...:(.
[08:13] <Mumphster> Ive been hacking away at this problem for the past 2 weeks so some things are hazy
[08:13] <nanonyme> riotkittie, heh, lucky i *can't* be driven into ndiswrapper
[08:13] <gnurph> I'm trying to mount an NTFS USB drive using ntfs-3g and I'm getting "No such file or directory"; any ideas?
[08:13] <aleka> kitche:  is the dev package in the ubuntu repos?
[08:13] <nickrud> aleka: install libdbus-1-dev  (found with apt-cache search libdbus | grep dev)
[08:13] <kitche> aleka: yes
[08:13] <RenatoSilva> plesae
[08:13] <ny00123> lol, now all of the icons are adjusted to the top-left
[08:14] <RenatoSilva> tell me interesting channels
[08:14] <ny00123> (mostly to the left)
[08:14] <silent> Mumphster, I'm not sure how you would check the version, but you can always reinstall to make sure, you want to reinstall?
[08:14] <aleka> thanks.. kitche and nickrud
[08:14] <astro76> !ot | RenatoSilva
[08:14] <ubotu> RenatoSilva: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:14] <ny00123> but still, plain .desktop files
[08:14] <Mumphster> silent, if you think it may help then sure
[08:14] <ny00123> and a non-working pdf (symlink)
[08:14] <jrib> gnurph: paste the command you are using
[08:14] <silent> Mumphster, /join #argh
[08:14] <ny00123> I guess Gutsy 7.10 is the way to go :D
[08:14] <lgc_> oliver__, at this pace, I'm afraid we're going to end up with Ubu
[08:15] <aleka> has anyone used music tracker succesfully with pidgin then?
[08:15] <lgc_> oliver__, at this pace, I'm afraid we're going to end up with 'Ubuntu Crappy'.
[08:15] <kemo_dev> join #uus guys am trying to make it more active
[08:15] <sixdraw> anyone able to help me with a smal question
[08:15] <gnurph> irib:  logged in as root; from /media directory:  mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 "My Book"
[08:15] <lgc_> oliver_g_, at this pace, I'm afraid we're going to end up with 'Ubuntu Crappy'.
[08:15] <cyclonut> can anyone recommend an network manager other than nm-applet?
[08:15] <oliver_g_> lgc_: I have hopes that after gutsy (ie.: a week from now), all devs will concentrate on bugfixes for hardy
[08:15] <cyclonut> (because nm-applet doesnt work for me)
[08:15] <sixdraw> having trouble with efax and my modem but have my modem driver installed correct
[08:15] <oliver_g_> lgc_: and i also hope that hardy will get two extra-months like dapper did
[08:15] <MasterShrek> cyclonut, command line
[08:16] <jrib> gnurph: what does this return:  ls "/media/My Book"
[08:16] <oliver_g_> cyclonut: knetworkmanager should do as well
[08:16] <lgc_> oliver_g_, Hardy is the next one after Gutsy?
[08:16] <cyclonut> MasterShrek: apart from command line
[08:16] <oliver_g_> lgc_: yes, afaik
[08:16] <riotkittie> cyclonut: there's wicd ...   how doesnt nm-applet work? what chipset are you using? wicd isnt in the repos but you can find it on sourceforge
[08:16] <MasterShrek> =(
[08:16] <cyclonut> oliver_g_: humm.. knetwork mangaer eh
[08:16] <riotkittie> i have not used it myself, but i have heard good things.
[08:16] <gnurph> irib:  "No such file or directory" - which I think I'd expect, because it isn't mounted, right?
[08:16] <urh> does anyone know why command alsa conf doesnt work? i would like to configure my sound card
[08:16] <nickrud> lol
[08:16] <lgc_> oliver_g_, is there anything interesting promised for Gutsy?
[08:16] <kitche> oliver_g_: hmm hardy heron is LTS
[08:16] <oliver_g_> cyclonut: colleague of mine switched to knetworkmanager on his ubuntu (gnome) desktop when nm-applet was broken
[08:17] <cyclonut> riotkittie: NM doesnt detect when I have dropped a network, will not let me change networks, will not bring wireless back up after standby, etc
[08:17] <aleka> nickrud: installed libdbus-1-dev and I am still getting the same dbus error////
[08:17] <wckdkl0wn> this is a weird request but here goes.. i have a text file with 10k lines in it.. i need to move the text from the end of each line after the ? to the front of the line and put a | after the text it moved... does linux have something that will do this auto? kinda like a word replace
[08:17] <san|> is there a way to get higher resolutions with the open source ati drivers then 1024x768??
[08:17] <cyclonut> oliver_g_: Ill check it out, Ive been trying to not install the kde libs though
[08:17] <astro76> lgc_, here's the highlights http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/gutsybeta
[08:17] <jrib> wckdkl0wn: sed
[08:17] <cyclonut> ...for whatever reason
[08:17] <lgc_> astro76, let me check...
[08:17] <wckdkl0wn> jrib, is it in the repositories?
[08:17] <encrypt3d> folks, I have been wrestling with an issue regarding running fping from my desktop when i am not root.  Is there a quick shortcut that i can put into the launcher to allow this?  gksu -u root /usr/bin/fping doesnt work.  I also tried visudo but have been unsuccessful.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[08:17] <ny00123> san|, editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf might help:
[08:17] <riotkittie> brb
[08:17] <ny00123> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:18] <SDugas> what's the default window manager?
[08:18] <ny00123> (or kedit if you're using kubuntu)
[08:18] <san|> wckdkl0wn: there are plenty of editors which support regular expressions
[08:18] <oliver_g_> cyclonut: if you install it with aptiude, you can later remove it with aptitude again and all the kdelibs will be gone
[08:18] <ny00123> look for a list of resolutions at the bottom
[08:18] <nickrud> aleka: you might need libdubs-glib-1-dev as well
[08:18] <Fryguy--> wckdkl0wn: perl/vim/emacs/sed/awk/any scripting language can all do something like that
[08:18] <jrib> wckdkl0wn: yes though you probably have it already
[08:18] <ny00123> actually, multiples of the list
[08:18] <peertje888> Is there alleady someone who can help me with my request_firmware failed: Reason -2 ?
[08:18] <LordLimecat> anyone have a second to help me with a script ive been struggling with?
[08:18] <nickrud> aleka: libdus-glib-1-dev
[08:18] <HaPpYfAcE> thanx
[08:18] <cyclonut> oliver_g_: neat.Ill try it out
[08:18] <ChupaChups> does Ubuntu ever crash?
[08:18] <MasterShrek> encrypt3d, omit the -u root
[08:18] <cyclonut> ChupaChups: sure
[08:18] <Fryguy--> ChupaChups: of course
[08:18] <ny00123> I remember Fedora7 has crashed several times
[08:18] <ny00123> because of a bug in the network driver
[08:19] <ny00123> but also Ubuntu with Compiz ("sync to vblank")
[08:19] <oliver_g_> LordLimecat: what exactly are you trying to do?
[08:19] <gnurph> irib:  still with me?
[08:19] <ChupaChups> is there an OS which doesn't ever crash?
[08:19] <Fryguy--> ChupaChups: no
[08:19] <nickrud> ChupaChups: pen and paper
[08:19] <ny00123> Maybe
[08:19] <ny00123> one which does nothing ;] 
[08:19] <ny00123> not even DOS
[08:19] <ChupaChups> ok ok
[08:19] <oliver_g_> ChupaChups: maybe some industrial-strength OS
[08:19] <Seveas> nickrud, I'll tear that paper and break the pen :)
[08:19] <LordLimecat> oliver_g_: im trying to run ventrilo, background it with &, run ventriloctrl, background it, and then wait till ventrilo exits, and killall ventriloctrl
[08:19] <sjkwizard> how can i add location to weather report?
[08:20] <nickrud> although, you might need an erasable pen :)
[08:20] <LordLimecat> ventrilo MUST be run fiurst
[08:20] <nickrud> Seveas: lol
[08:20] <jrib> gnurph: "jrib" to hilight me
[08:20] <ChupaChups> how does an ubuntu crash look like?
[08:20] <LordLimecat> lemme pastebin what i have
[08:20] <szb9> hello
[08:20] <oliver_g_> ChupaChups: depends on what you wanna do and what you see as "crash"... if "just" X.org crashes it's for most users like the whole system has crashed
[08:20] <Fryguy--> ChupaChups: it dpends on what you did to crash it
[08:20] <Dialntone> drinking some coffee trying to get my cross over steam working :(
[08:20] <LordLimecat> oliver_g_: http://pastebin.com/d121c60a2
[08:21] <jrib> gnurph: you need to create the directory to mount it:  sudo mkdir "/media/My Book"
[08:21] <ChupaChups> I mean like a "Blue Screen of Death" in Windows
[08:21] <kitche> ChupaChups: usually you get a kernel panic :)
[08:21] <Dialntone> halflife is almost impossible to get right on here, i mean it works but there's no sound... >> can someone help me
[08:21] <mwax> does anyone know if ubuntu has problems detecting usb 2.0 devices
[08:21] <szb9> where can i download the ubuntu startup sound?
[08:21] <mwax> i have a couple external lacie drives connected by usb and when i look under hardware profiles, it notes all of my usb devices as 1.0
[08:21] <virtuososteve> hey
[08:21] <oliver_g_> LordLimecat: let me think about that a moment
[08:21] <Seveas> ChupaChups, search google images for kernel panic
[08:21] <ChupaChups> what is kernel panic?
[08:21] <virtuososteve> how do u connect a iriver clix to ubuntu?
[08:21] <LordLimecat> oliver_g_: i was also looking into using the wait command, similar to ps -A|grep Ventrilo|awk '{print $1}'|wait
[08:21] <LordLimecat> but wait isnt accepting pipes
[08:22] <Seveas> LordLimecat, replace wait with xargs wait
[08:22] <kitche> ChupaChups: it's what you call a crash
[08:22] <Seveas> LordLimecat, xargs transforms input to arguments for other commands. VERY useful :)
[08:22] <mwax> virtuososteve have you tried gnomad2?
[08:22] <LordLimecat> seveas: xargs: wait: No such file or directory
[08:22] <LordLimecat>  :(
[08:22] <ChupaChups> how does it look?
[08:23] <LordLimecat> but yea, i vaguely remember xargs, it was a lifesaver before
[08:23] <gnurph> jrib:  well...it appears to mount, but I still can't write to it, even though I'm using ntfs-3g...
[08:23] <nickrud> szb9: look on packages.ubuntu.com for ubuntu-sounds, it's in that package
[08:23] <virtuososteve> wat is it mwax?
[08:23] <szb9> thx
[08:23] <mwax> i have a creative zen
[08:23] <Seveas> LordLimecat, well, wait isn't a shell command but a syscall that can only be run from the parent of a process
[08:23] <kitche> ChupaChups: black screen that says kernel panic <error>
[08:23] <mwax> and i tried gnomad2
[08:23] <Seveas> LordLimecat, so you'll have to try something else :)
[08:23] <virtuososteve> where do i download it?
[08:23] <LordLimecat> :(
[08:24] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > gnurph (read the private message from ubotu)
[08:24] <Maxas> what is ubuntu
[08:24] <mwax> i haven't taken time to configure it yet but I think that would work
[08:24] <ny00123> Humanity
[08:24] <Maxas> I see it is the biggest channel
[08:24] <mwax> hmm
[08:24] <jrib> !ubuntu | Maxas
[08:24] <ubotu> Maxas: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[08:24] <LordLimecat> is fg the right command to be using here then?
[08:24] <zenska> zdr
[08:24] <ny00123> Now I'm off from here (TV), I guess I shall upgrade to v7.10
[08:24] <oliver_g_> LordLimecat: why do you want the ./runctrl.sh command in the background and then wait for it??
[08:24] <zenska> kako si
[08:24] <zenska> ste
[08:24] <ChupaChups> look, I was just sitting here in ma windows and using Opera for browsing, and suddenly I saw BSOD,
[08:24] <Seveas> LordLimecat, I just hopped in, what are you trying to accomplish?
[08:25] <ChupaChups> does this happen in ubuntu?
[08:25] <Seveas> ChupaChups, no
[08:25] <LordLimecat> seveas, im trying to run ventrilo (thru wine), then ventriloctrl (a seperate program which MUST be run after ventrilo), then kill off ventriloctrl once ventrilo dies
[08:25] <oliver_g_> ChupaChups: seldom :-)
[08:25] <ChupaChups> ok
[08:25] <Seveas> ChupaChups, unless you use the BSOD screensaver, then you get crash displays from lots of OS'es
[08:25] <ChupaChups> lol
[08:25] <LordLimecat> currently, i get vent running, then ventctrl, but once vent dies, ctrl keeps running
[08:25] <aolaus> anyone help me with a wireless problem?
[08:26] <oliver_g_> ChupaChups: the bsods under windows mostly come from bad drivers - if you stay with opensource drivers under ubuntu, that shouldn't happen
[08:26] <ChupaChups> oliver_g_: seldom? it is seldom for my windows too!
[08:26] <oliver_g_> ChupaChups: the drivers that come with ubuntu are very stable in my opinion
[08:26] <aolaus> anybody?
[08:26] <rtg> whats the wireless problem?
[08:26] <LordLimecat> ChupaChups: i prefer linux so far because when something DOES go haywire, it is within my power to find the cause, and resolve it.  Also, even in worst case scenarios, a reinstall is almost never required.
[08:26] <djm62> my laptop overheats, abruptly shutting down - no data loss so far, but is there any way to get it to cool down through software?
[08:26] <aolaus> it's not showing up
[08:27] <aolaus> I'm currently working through ethernet
[08:27] <oliver_g_> ChupaChups: (can't say that of the vendor drivers... the ATI fglrx driver had a bug in one version that locked up whole system - it felt like using windows :-( )
[08:27] <LordLimecat> ChupaChups: YMMV tho, just personal preference.  If windows works fine for you, then more power to you
[08:27] <rtg> what kind of wireless card are you using?
[08:27] <aolaus> iwconfig says it's there
[08:27] <aolaus> but I can't access it
[08:27] <aolaus> or don't know how
[08:27] <aolaus> intel 3945
[08:27] <Seveas> LordLimecat, launch ventrilo with a script that kills ventctrl when ventrilo is gone, something like
[08:27] <ChupaChups> LordLimecat: but u must have deep knowledge? or not?
[08:27] <Seveas> #!/bin/sh
[08:27] <Mumphster> try sudo dhclient wlan0
[08:27] <Seveas> ventrilo
[08:27] <Seveas> pkill ventctrl
[08:27] <LordLimecat> ChupaChups: eh, not really
[08:27] <virtuososteve> hey mwax the gnomad2 is for zen not iriver
[08:27] <demon_spork> how do I change GDM themes:
[08:28] <LordLimecat> ChupaChups: thats why these chats are here, and forums
[08:28] <demon_spork> ?
[08:28] <kint_> would anyone be able to help me get resolvconf working? I'm trying to VPN to work. It looks like it finds the DNS servers correctly and moves them to /etc/resolv.conf, but I can't ping any servers
[08:28] <Fryguy--> ChupaChups: download the ubuntu livecd and experiment for yourself
[08:28] <kartpusher05> hey all....does any1 know how to change the default file browser for gnome? I installed dolphin but i want it set as my default file browser... any help would be appreciated
[08:28] <gnurph> jrib:  TY - solved it
[08:28] <aolaus> me, mumphster?
[08:28] <Mumphster> yeah
[08:28] <kruqnu1> im trying to burn an image file to a cdr
[08:28] <kruqnu1> i tried to use the graveman program, yet it gives me an error, operation failed
[08:28] <LordLimecat> seveas: what will pkill ventriloctrl do?
[08:28] <Seveas> LordLimecat, or this: while pgrep ventrilo >/dev/null ; do sleep 10 ; done; pkill ventctrl
[08:28] <kruqnu1> when i try
[08:28] <aolaus> the wireless is actually showing up as eth1
[08:28] <Seveas> LordLimecat, man pkill :)
[08:28] <aolaus> should I try sudo dhclient eth1?
[08:29] <LordLimecat> just did, looks like pgrep :\
[08:29] <kruqnu1> anyone know why i might be getting this error and maybe can help me burn this image?
[08:29] <ChupaChups> I have the CD and tried installing, I didn't like it much then, because the video driver wasn't installed and the screen was so slow...
[08:29] <encrypt3d> MasterShrek, i think i am on the right track, however i am also looking for the launcher to open the command into a new shell - any ideas? gksu /usr/bin/fping  -- i enter my root PW, but it seems like the process runs in the back ground.
[08:29] <LordLimecat> i need ventriloctrl to continue running until ventrilo dies
[08:29] <LordLimecat> the second option will work, but i was hoping for something more elegant
[08:30] <rtg> aolaus: i have the same one, using ubuntu drapper, i used a program called WiFi Radar
[08:30] <LordLimecat> im guessing it polls every 10 seconds to see if vent is alive?
[08:30] <erin> Hi again, everyone. Anyone know the file that I need to add "ndiswrapper" to if I want my wireless to connect on startup?
[08:30] <rtg> you can get it with a `sudo apt-get install wifi-radar`
[08:30] <aolaus> lol that's funny.. they said feisty would take care of the problems
[08:30] <aolaus> should I try that?
[08:31] <LordLimecat> seveas: like, is there a way of restoring ventrilo to the foreground so that the script halts till it closes?
[08:31] <kitche> erin: you don't need to add ndiswrapper to anything just need the module to load at startup you can do that with sudo nsdiswrapper -m
[08:31] <rob-e> hey guys
[08:31] <Seveas> LordLimecat, what does the script look like now?
[08:31] <oliver_g_> LordLimecat, Seveas: what about "ventrilo&; ventriloctrl&; wait `pgrep ventrilo`"?
[08:31] <kruqnu1> can anyone help me with burning an image to CDR please? i tried to use graveman(program that is in the program manager) but i get an operation failed message. I'm not sure what i am doing wrong. Can anyone help me?
[08:31] <LordLimecat> http://pastebin.com/d121c60a2
[08:31] <Seveas> oliver_g_, wait is not a shell command :)
[08:31] <LordLimecat> oliver_g_: that may do it o.0
[08:31] <oliver_g_> Seveas: is that a problem?
[08:32] <ChupaChups> will I be able such cool applications for Ubuntu, like I find for Windows (mIRC, Total Commander, Miranda, Winamp, BSPlayer, WinRAR and many other (I use about a hundred)?
[08:32] <ChupaChups> *able to find
[08:32] <Seveas> LordLimecat, the fg %1 should bring ventrilo in the foregrund
[08:32] <javaJake> ChupaChups, yes
[08:32] <Fryguy--> ChupaChups: yes
[08:32] <mehevi> hi, I need to start onboard-an onscreen keyboard, at the gdm login screen.  I've read online about it, and updated onboard to .88, set it to run in /etc/gdm/Init/Default, but it still will not show up
[08:32] <erin> Kitche: Yeah, I did that before, but I changed my essid, and now I lost it again. There's some file that has "lo" in it and I added "ndiswrapper" to it to connect on startup
[08:32] <javaJake> ChupaChups, list out the essentials, we'll give you the software equivilants
[08:32] <javaJake> ChupaChups, one at a time. :)
[08:32] <rob-e> how would you recommend setting up a mythtv box which is also a small web server?
[08:32] <oliver_g_> *** wheee!! software suggestion party!! ***
[08:32] <Karti> Hi all, looking for a tool that will convert wma to mp3? Any ideas? Many thanks
[08:32] <kitche> erin: /etc/network/interfaces but you don't have to put ndiswrapper in any file
[08:32] <oliver_g_> :-D
[08:33] <javaJake> ChupaChups, also, I recommend you try Ubuntu through the LiveCD, make sure everything works, and you like the software, before you install.
[08:33] <mehevi> ChupaChups irssi for irc, xmms for winamp, tar for winRAR, pidgin for miranda
[08:33] <peertje888> What scripts run on booting time?
[08:33] <javaJake> oliver_g_, yea, just don't get too in-depth. :)
[08:33] <aot2002> anyone know why CONCURRENCY=shell causes HAL issue on reboot?
[08:33] <javaJake> peertje888, /etc/rc5.d/...
[08:33] <javaJake> peertje888, anything in that folder
[08:33] <encrypt3d> ChupaCups check out this link, it is great.  http://lifehacker.com/software/ubuntu/hack-attack-top-10-ubuntu-apps-and-tweaks-195437.php
[08:33] <javaJake> peertje888, in the order listed
[08:33] <oliver_g_> javaJake: nah, can't hold back now! i mean, xmms as winamp replacement?? I _must_ say that audacious is wayyy better ;-)
[08:34] <kruqnu1> Can anyone help me with burning an .ISO image to a cdr in ubuntu?
[08:34] <erin> Kitchie: Weird! I just did the sudo ndiswrapper -m, and it says file not found!
[08:34] <javaJake> kruqnu1, sure
[08:34] <rob-e> !!
[08:34] <bENDerdublin> hi
[08:34] <silent> kruqnu1, right click the iso
[08:34] <ChupaChups> ok, I won't waste your time now, I'll come and ask when I am installing Ubuntu, thank you all
[08:34] <erin> command not fount
[08:34] <javaJake> Hey bEEatWorK
[08:34] <LordLimecat> seveas: current script, run from shell: http://pastebin.com/d51428fcf
[08:34] <silent> kruqnu1, burn iso to cd
[08:34] <foug> with 7.10, do i have the option of importing folders over?
[08:34] <oliver_g_> ChupaChups: you should really try the livecd
[08:34] <bENDerdublin> just testing x-chat
[08:34] <LordLimecat> its killing off ventriloctrl immediately
[08:34] <bENDerdublin> cool app
[08:34] <erin> Kitchie: sorry, it says command not found
[08:34] <oliver_g_> ChupaChups: also, in livecd, there's the Pidgin chat
[08:34] <mehevi> it works bENDerdublin
[08:34] <javaJake> bENDerdublin, best of the best. :)
[08:34] <bENDerdublin> yes
[08:34] <ChupaChups> oliver_g_: I told u I tried even installing to HD
[08:34] <javaJake> ChupaChups, like I said, try it on a LiveCD first
[08:34] <bENDerdublin> its really cool
[08:34] <Seveas> /home/limecat/bin/ventrilo.sh: line 7: fg: no job control
[08:34] <kruqnu1> silent what do you mean?
[08:35] <silent> bENDerdublin, I'm on xchat right now, believe it or not
[08:35] <Seveas> there we go
[08:35] <LordLimecat> eh?
[08:35] <oliver_g_> ChupaChups: ... so you can contact us when the livecd is started :-D
[08:35] <mehevi> if you like that try bitchx
[08:35] <rob-e> how would you recommend setting up a mythtv box which is also a small web server?
[08:35] <silent> kruqnu1, right click on the .iso file
[08:35] <lgc_> astro76, there seems to be more eyecandy on Gutsy. But I doubt the user switching gadget is meaningful, if not insecure, for example.
[08:35] <LordLimecat> i saw that in passing, what does it mean?
[08:35] <silent> kruqnu1, it will be in the menu
[08:35] <javaJake> ChupaChups, for instance, your internet may not work, your graphics may not work. Test it first!
[08:35] <Seveas> how are you running this, just as a script inside gnome-terminal/kterm?
[08:35] <Seveas> LordLimecat, it explains why 'fg %1' doesn't work :)
[08:35] <LordLimecat> seveas: yes, for testing
[08:35] <ChupaChups> javaJake: I tried those before, graphics was slow
[08:35] <kruqnu1> there is a write to disc option
[08:36] <ChupaChups> internet worked
[08:36] <silent> kruqnu1, that's the one
[08:36] <kruqnu1> wont that just brun a copy of the file to the cd?
[08:36] <javaJake> ChupaChups, well, the CD is slow...
[08:36] <silent> kruqnu1, one second
[08:36] <javaJake> ChupaChups, the 3D games, once loaded, should not be
[08:36] <ChupaChups> javaJake: no! I installed to HD
[08:36] <kruqnu1> like as a data cd?
[08:36] <foug> with 7.10, do i have the option of importing folders over?
[08:36] <javaJake> ChupaChups, OK, taht's an X issue
[08:36] <silent> kruqnu1, no
[08:36] <erin> Hey, guys-- sudo ndiswrapper -m gives me a "command not found," and I can
[08:36] <aleka> am plugging my camera in (USB) and am getting a message that it can not mount the volume because I don't have privilages... never had this happen... I am the only user on the system
[08:36] <ChupaChups> the display was slow
[08:36] <silent> kruqnu1, it will burn the image
[08:36] <javaJake> ChupaChups, what graphics card are you running?
[08:37] <Seveas> LordLimecat, are you running it with bash or sh?
[08:37] <ChupaChups> :)
[08:37] <ChupaChups> Geforce MX-200
[08:37] <ChupaChups> old
[08:37] <kruqnu1> can you consider that a graphics card? :P
[08:37] <javaJake> erin, then you don't have ndiswrapper installed
[08:37] <hypn0> foug: read the topic
[08:37] <silent> kruqnu1, it creates graphics so I'd say so
[08:37] <LordLimecat> er, just using "ventrilo.sh" (its in my ~/bin)
[08:37] <kruqnu1> thats like calling a cave drawing a photograph :P hehe jk
[08:37] <javaJake> erin, run "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils" in a terminal, without quotes
[08:37] <LordLimecat> or doubleclicking the icon, and doing "run"
[08:37] <astro76> lgc_, replacing ctrl+alt+f7, f8, f9, etc... with a friendly menu, not sure how that's not-meaningful
[08:37] <erin> javajake: okay
[08:37] <javaJake> erin, unless you compiled it, which I doubt.
[08:37] <oliver_g_> kruqnu1: hey, that's the default graphic in office PCs
[08:38] <javaJake> erin, ...did you?
[08:38] <Seveas> LordLimecat, is the forst line of the script #!/bin/bash
[08:38] <Seveas> ?
[08:38] <MasterShrek> encrypt3d, isnt there a checkbox or something that allows you to open it in a terminal?
[08:38] <kruqnu1> guess its better than the voodoo 2 i run in my oldest computer :)
[08:38] <silent> kruqnu1, I'm using an integrated geforece 6150 :O
[08:38] <chris_> how can i mount my iphone in ubuntu?
[08:38] <erin> javajake: I thought I did that!
[08:38] <kruqnu1> i play games so i have to have good vid card
[08:38] <LordLimecat> seveas: i thought that was commented out, and useless? no, i dont have that up there
[08:38] <javaJake> erin, :P
[08:38] <erin> How can I check
[08:38] <kruqnu1> i have a 6800GT and an 8800GTS
[08:38] <foug> hypn0: so you don't know the answer than eh?
[08:38] <Seveas> LordLimecat, put it up there
[08:38] <silent> kruqnu1, I'm running an 8800 GTS @ 630/1800mhz in my deskttop
[08:38] <MasterShrek> encrypt3d, or u can put gnome-terminal -e 'commands to run'
[08:39] <erin> javajake: I followed the howtu to the letter, plus I'm on wireless right now
[08:39] <kruqnu1> nice, i haven't oc'd mine at all
[08:39] <javaJake> erin, hmmm
[08:39] <hypn0> foug: #ubuntu+1 might know, but it isn't released yet
[08:39] <kruqnu1> im finishing upgrading other components before i blow my gpu up
[08:39] <silent> kruqnu1, give it a try, they don't overheat easily
[08:39] <javaJake> erin, can you just run ndiswrapper?
[08:39] <kruqnu1> is that with stock coolers?
[08:39] <silent> kruqnu1, yeah
[08:39] <erin> okay, hangon
[08:39] <silent> kruqnu1, the stock cooler is good
[08:39] <LordLimecat> seveas: its up there.  Still, running with doubleclick-->run results in instant process death for ventriloctrl
[08:39] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: I have installed nvidia gui now
[08:39] <kruqnu1> unfortunately my cpu's right now are a athlon xp 3000+ and an 1800+ :P
[08:40] <kruqnu1> waiting for the phenom x4 then gonna see the prices and either get the phenom or the q6600
[08:40] <silent> kruqnu1, get a penryn core 2 when they come out
[08:40] <lgc_> astro76, what do you get with CTRL-ALT+F7->F12?
[08:40] <kruqnu1> sometime next month
[08:40] <LordLimecat> Seveas: and running it with doubleclick -->run in terminal results in both programs dying
[08:40] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, the gui config program?
[08:40] <kruqnu1> penryn will be above my budget i think
[08:40] <astro76> lgc_, that's how you change to different X displays, you can already login with different users by either adding the New Login... item to your menu, or doing it the old-fashioned way
[08:40] <kruqnu1> the q6600 setup im looking at will run me $505
[08:40] <erin> javajake: Sorry, there was a typo. sudo ndiswrapper -m returns this: module configuration already contains alias directive
[08:41] <javaJake> erin, are you using NetworkManager for internet?
[08:41] <MasterShrek> ndiswrapper....ick
[08:41] <neopsyche> yes
[08:41] <javaJake> erin, (because NetworkManager does _not_ like that particular module configuration)
[08:41] <kruqnu1> i dunno if i should get a core2 or a quadcore really
[08:41] <erin> javajake: Yes, I am. But I added "ndiswrapper" to some file that had "lo" in it.
[08:41] <kruqnu1> i know the quad core won't give me much of an advantage in gaming etc at this point
[08:41] <javaJake> MasterShrek, it's the best way to get online IMO, since most of the time native drivers are unavailable
[08:42] <javaJake> erin, which file?
[08:42] <kruqnu1> but i figure it won't hurt much either
[08:42] <kruqnu1> and hopefully future games utilize quadcore
[08:42] <nightangel> can i talk to someone privately to help me to resolve a problem please ?
[08:42] <underwatercow> In SBackup, when setting the backup schedule, what does selecting "Simply" do as opposed to setting a specific time?
[08:42] <vmlinuz-> I'm running ies4linux and whenever I go to the website "https://www.onthenetsports.com/viewer.asp" That has a streaming video live which i bought. My IE Crash & hangs up in a sec. I ran it into a terminal to see the error that cause the crash and here it is, can somebody help me out? error here. http://pastebin.com/mbb9cf23
[08:42] <hypn0> kruqnu1: it will hurt your pocket :-)
[08:42] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: Yes
[08:42] <kruqnu1> because amd will have dual quad core features when the phenom x4 comes out right?
[08:42] <MasterShrek> javaJake, its a last resort
[08:42] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: yes the gui config
[08:42] <erin> javajake:  There was some file that I was told on #ubuntu that should be edited to add "ndiswrapper"
[08:42] <kruqnu1> well its only 35 more bucks for a q6600 over an e6600\
[08:42] <neopsyche> I installed system tools
[08:42] <javaJake> erin, /etc/modules?
[08:42] <vmlinuz-> nightangel: why privately, are you shy or something?
[08:42] <nightangel> when i insert a CD (or a DVD), i can't eject it after
[08:43] <quittt> !gusty
[08:43] <ubotu> It is spelt !guTSy :)
[08:43] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, you should be able to configure your resolution in there now then
[08:43] <javaJake> lol
[08:43] <kruqnu1> but if i were to get the e6600 i'd just get an x2 6000+ instead and thats like $100 cheaper than the q6600
[08:43] <MasterShrek> is spelt a word?
[08:43] <javaJake> Yea
[08:43] <MasterShrek> spelled maybe?
[08:43] <erin> javajake: I'll try that, hang on
[08:43] <javaJake> Well, UK spells things differantly anyway. ;)
[08:43] <kruqnu1> being a gamer im kind of an AMD fanboy, but intel is killing amd right now makes me sad
[08:43] <MasterShrek> heh
[08:43] <nightangel> no i'm not shy (we're in an IRC lol)
[08:43] <djm62> MasterShrek: past participle
[08:44] <vmlinuz-> nightangel: then say your problem
[08:44] <kruqnu1> thanks silent, it worked no problem, well at least for now
[08:44] <hypn0> nightangel: you tried eject command :-/
[08:44] <kruqnu1> now to try to reinstall xp
[08:44] <MasterShrek> djm62, thanks for the enlightenment
[08:44] <kruqnu1> my brother decided he needed to install some programs on my computer and totally loaded me with malware
[08:44] <lgc_> astro76 I didn't know how to use them. I only knew of the CTRL+ALT+F1->F7 terms. So how can you configure manually some access with, say CTRL+ALT+F8?
[08:44] <underwatercow> vmlinuz-: MY Problem is that I can no longer discern internet and reality... can you help me with that?
[08:44] <kruqnu1> so i went to reformat only to find my xp cd was too scratched
[08:44] <aolaus> I'm still having problems detecting my wireless card
[08:44] <MasterShrek> kruqnu1, you are aware that you will have to reinstall grub after you install windows because windows will take over your mbr
[08:44] <erin> javajake: That's it. It's still there. So why won't the wireless connect on startup?
[08:45] <nightangel> i tried all i can do : the Eject command in the contextual menu, and the button of my CD reader
[08:45] <neopsyche> I see a screen that shows layout .. it says 800x600
[08:45] <vmlinuz-> underwatercow: yes i can
[08:45] <aolaus> shows up as eth1 instead of wlan0
[08:45] <kruqnu1> actually i use BootIT NG
[08:45] <kazim59> weird problem... I installed g++ by sudo apt-get install g++ .... now g++ says command not found!!
[08:45] <javaJake> erin, what does iwconfig show?
[08:45] <kruqnu1> because i triple boot with xp/vista/ubuntu
[08:45] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: previous message
[08:45] <javaJake> erin, is wlan0 or some other wireless device there?
[08:45] <MasterShrek> kazim59, u should just sudo apt-get install build-essential
[08:45] <kruqnu1> xp and vista don't dualboot well
[08:45] <LordLimecat> seveas, any thoughts? :(
[08:45] <underwatercow> vmlinuz-: Are you going to prescribe me some drugs?
[08:45] <minus> http://segra007.thg.se/files/cssourcelinux2.png <- I just wanted to "brag" about being able to play CS: source with Compiz Fusion on Gutsy Gibbon ;)
[08:45] <overlord> I am connecting Cybershot to the usb, but nothing happens
[08:45] <kruqnu1> apparently xp messes up vista's system restore files and makes it unstable
[08:45] <kazim59> MasterShrek: let me try
[08:45] <vmlinuz-> underwatercow: sure :)
[08:45] <overlord> any help??
[08:45] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, can you change the resolution, there should be a drop down box
[08:46] <kruqnu1> so i had to get a 3rd party bootloader to hide the vista partition when i load XP
[08:46] <aolaus> even with separate partitions?
[08:46] <hypn0> nightangel: eject at the command line I meant :-) in a terminal
[08:46] <underwatercow> Anyone in here use sbackup?
[08:46] <kruqnu1> yup
[08:46] <kruqnu1> it messes up the vista partition
[08:46] <nightangel> how do you do that ?
[08:46] <erin> javajake: Here's the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/m70f72fb3
[08:46] <nightangel> (i'm in the terminal)
[08:46] <MasterShrek> kruqnu1, its not like microsoft to make things work so easily together
[08:46] <kruqnu1> that and it enables me to have 6 primary partitions
[08:46] <darkchr0n0s> kruqnu1 : why would anyone want 2 windoze on same PC :S
[08:46] <kruqnu1> for directx10
[08:46] <darkchr0n0s> kruqnu1 : just use vista then
[08:46] <kruqnu1> but vista sucks at everything else so anything not dx10 i run in XP
[08:47] <darkchr0n0s> hah..
[08:47] <vmlinuz-> how to run a streaming video in mplayer.
[08:47] <hypn0> nightangel: type man eject
[08:47] <kruqnu1> vista performance is bleh so i use XP for other stuff
[08:47] <encrypt3d> MasterShrek, do you have the launcher text, i apologize i am still learning bash
[08:47] <underwatercow> I have XP and Vista on this computer, though I have no idea why yet... I guess I figure that it might be useful... someday... if only wine could run all my games, I would never need windows
[08:47] <kruqnu1> my ping, audio, fps is signifigantly worse in vista
[08:47] <darkchr0n0s> kruqnu1 : get a OD'ed PC, the performance won't go bad
[08:47] <kruqnu1> OD'ed?
[08:47] <javaJake> erin, lemme look
[08:47] <aolaus> anyone, wireless problem?
[08:47] <hypn0> erm, I think its something like eject /dev/cdrom nightangel or something like that, someone please correct me :-)
[08:47] <kruqnu1> u mean oc'd?
[08:48] <erin> javaJake: Thanks!
[08:48] <darkchr0n0s> quad core, 8800GTX ultra, 4GB ram etc etc
[08:48] <overlord> I am connecting Cybershot to the USB, but it is unable to mount. Any help??
[08:48] <bENDerdublin> can somebody tell me where i can get some cool scripts for x-chat ?
[08:48] <MasterShrek> encrypt3d, not really, i dont even know what you are trying to run anymore lol
[08:48] <kruqnu1> lol i can't afford an 8800GTX ultra :P
[08:48] <vmlinuz-> am I invisible?
[08:48] <Fryguy--> bENDerdublin: wrong channel
[08:48] <darkchr0n0s> same here :(
[08:48] <kruqnu1> i had to settle for an 8800GTS 640meg
[08:48] <bENDerdublin> oh
[08:48] <bENDerdublin> ok
[08:48] <kruqnu1> but its good enuf i guess for a year or two
[08:48] <ingrid> Anyone good with ubuntu and Toshiba A200 wireless network not functionin?
[08:48] <MasterShrek> aolaus, what kinda wireless problem?
[08:48] <kruqnu1> then i'll probably get a geforce 9 series card or maybe geforce 10 if its out by then
[08:48] <MasterShrek> ingrid, what kind of card?
[08:48] <darkchr0n0s> i don't play games that much anyways .. s
[08:49] <kruqnu1> hopefully ill make more money by then lol
[08:49] <wckdkl0wn> bENDerdublin, try xchat.org i think they have a script section
[08:49] <nightangel> i see that i must type something like "man eject -R --cdrom"
[08:49] <ingrid> MasterShrek, I'm new at this.. not sure.. where do i find that info?
[08:49] <kruqnu1> im working on getting a quadcore now, with efficent budgeting i should be able to afford the upgrade with a p35 board on november 9th :P
[08:49] <bENDerdublin> thanks
[08:49] <riotkittie> oye my head.
[08:49] <nightangel> but it shows me an help message
[08:49] <MasterShrek> ingrid, alt+f2 > type: gnome-terminal
[08:49] <encrypt3d> I have a security vmware image that runs a ton of security apps via the shell, but they all require root privileges.  I am trying to run fping from the shell without being root and have it open in a new shell --  if not, no worries.  Thanks for the help as it is.
[08:50] <darkchr0n0s> kruqnu1 : wow, and i am happy with a T7100 :(
[08:50] <kruqnu1> but im kinda stalling untill the penryn or phenom x4 comes out and hopefully will be able to get a good quadcore setup cheaper
[08:50] <javaJake> erin, that looks fine
[08:50] <hypn0> no not man, that's the manual pages for commands, try eject /dev/cdrom first nightangel
[08:50] <javaJake> erin, are you using it now, then?
[08:50] <MasterShrek> ingrid, then type lspci and it will give you a list of all of your pci devices, if you put lspci -vv it will give you more detailed information
[08:50] <kruqnu1> yea but i only upgrade once every 2 to 3 years
[08:50] <Fxyz2007> hi everybody
[08:50] <KristianDK> Greeetz.. Anyone who knows if i can install Ubuntu on my Nokia E61 cellphone ? :) :)
[08:50] <javaJake> erin, is your problem just that you have to manually start it up on boot?
[08:50] <kruqnu1> so i go for alittle more than i need when i upgrade
[08:50] <Fryguy--> kruqnu1: quadcore processors are under $300 now, might as well just get it now, if you actually want quadcore
[08:50] <darkchr0n0s> kruqnu1 : i upgrade every 4 years
[08:50] <javaJake> KristianDK, Ubuntu Mobile project? :)
[08:50] <erin> javaJake: Yes, exactly
[08:50] <kruqnu1> i do alot of gaming tho
[08:50] <Fxyz2007> i have a newbie friend, he has installed ubuntu, he wants to install ntfs-2g but he has no internet, what's the simplest way to install it? is there a deb that i can downlaod?
[08:51] <kruqnu1> yea the q6600 is $260
[08:51] <KristianDK> javaJake: I've searched for it, couldnt find it - thought it wasnt released :P
[08:51] <overlord> I am connecting Cybershot to the USB but it is unable to mount. Any help??
[08:51] <kruqnu1> don't have the money till next month tho anyways, so if 2 weeks can save me $50to $75 bucks its worth it
[08:51] <javaJake> erin, ok, check /etc/network/interfaces - any mention of eth0?
[08:51] <kruqnu1> plus i'd prefer an AMD chip anyways if the phenom  x4 is competetively priced
[08:51] <ganesh>  javaJake: how to install python-tk package
[08:52] <javaJake> KristianDK, I'd search "Ubuntu Nokia E61", then "Ubuntu Nokia"...
[08:52] <darkchr0n0s> wow.. and i am trying to buy a old second hand mobo+proc :( (in 35$)
[08:52] <javaJake> ganesh, I would think apt-get would work. have you tried that yet?
[08:52] <nightangel> OK, i try it
[08:52] <kruqnu1> ok im gonna go try to reinstall xp, see ya around again probably the next time windows shits out on me
[08:52] <KristianDK> javaJake, will just have a search
[08:52] <kruqnu1> lol i have a second computer as soon as i get this upgrade
[08:52] <MasterShrek> darkchr0n0s, i got a couple you can have, p3 450 mhz =P
[08:52] <nightangel> it does nothing :-(
[08:52] <javaJake> KristianDK, it's not too difficult, and if you don't get anything close to related first page, I'd say no.
[08:53] <kruqnu1> will be an athalon 3000+ with 2 gigs ddr3200 and a geforce 6800GT 256 meg
[08:53] <ingrid> MasterShrek - What kind of info am I looking for+
[08:53] <riotkittie> Fxyz2007: yes, you should be able to find it on archive.ubuntu.com, i believe.
[08:53] <darkchr0n0s> MasterShrek : i got 2 P3 1Ghz 133FSB ones :)
[08:53] <erin> javaJake: Here's etc/network/interfaces: http://pastebin.com/m6d38eb46
[08:53] <MasterShrek> ingrid, something about wireless, wlan, or something like that
[08:53] <hypn0> okay, I'm out of ideas, someone else please help nightangel eject cdrom :-)
[08:53] <kruqnu1> new computer will be phenomx4 with 4gigs, or q6600 with 4 gigs and 8800GTS 640meg
[08:53] <ganesh> javaJake:no i don hav installation file..can i do it using synaptic manager??
[08:53] <javaJake> ganesh, that should work
[08:53] <nightangel> thanks a lot :-)
[08:53] <MasterShrek> ooooh darkchr0n0s 1ghz!!! thats hawt! lolz
[08:53] <javaJake> ganesh, is your computer online?
[08:53] <kruqnu1> lol i just got a new sound card to go with some new speakers i bought
[08:54] <javaJake> :D
[08:54] <kruqnu1> but apparently linux and x-fi doesn't go together
[08:54] <ganesh>  javaJake:ya..
[08:54] <nightangel> thanks a lot hypnO
[08:54] <kruqnu1> so im soundless in linux
[08:54] <javaJake> erin, OK, is your network encrypted?
[08:54] <ingrid> MasterShrek - Something like this?     Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02)
[08:54] <MasterShrek> darkchr0n0s, i wish mine were 1 ghz, 450mhz just isnt enough
[08:54] <MasterShrek> ingrid, that would be it
[08:54] <darkchr0n0s> MasterShrek : my great grandchildren will sell those as antiques ;)
[08:54] <kruqnu1> anyways later guys back to stupid windows
[08:54] <MasterShrek> im not really sure how to set that card up though ingrid, i think its pretty easy though
[08:54] <riotkittie> D:
[08:55] <darkchr0n0s> MasterShrek : i could have sent it to you, but the postage is >>>> proc's price
[08:55] <MasterShrek> family heirlooms darkchr0n0s lol
[08:55] <ingrid> MS... So that means my computer finds the card... knows it's there.. it just don't want to make it work..
[08:55] <overlord> I am connecting Cybershot to the USB but it is not mounting. Any help??
[08:55] <nightangel> i think that i need to repair the option that can open my CD reader
[08:55] <MasterShrek> darkchr0n0s, i got a 1.4ghz athlon xp coming, that thing will be a speed demon compared to my current file server haha
[08:55] <erin> javaJake: No, it's not encrypted, but I just noticed that eth1 is the auto, and my wireless is eth0
[08:55] <darkchr0n0s> nightangel : reboot and take out the CD while it's starting again
[08:56] <KristianDK> javaJake -> hmm, cant really find any info about where to get it, seems like it aint released ..
[08:56] <riotkittie> overlord: has it ever mounted for you?   or is this the first time you've tried?
[08:56] <erin> javaJake: also, when I click Connection Information, I get "Error displaying connection information: Could not find some required resources (the glade file)!"
[08:56] <darkchr0n0s> MasterShrek : lol !
[08:56] <ganesh> javaJake:ya..its installing..(synaptic manager..)thanx
[08:56] <javaJake> erin, OK, let me check that out
[08:56] <overlord> riotkittie: this is the first time i'm mounting a camera. other usb stuffs work for me
[08:56] <MasterShrek> ingrid, just because it sees it doesnt mean it will work, but that card should work pretty easily if u can find someone who has set it up you can prolly get it working in couple minutes
[08:56] <Fxyz2007> riotkittie: i can't find any deb, i find only bz and gz....
[08:56] <javaJake> erin, but changing eth1 should be changed to eth0, and you _can_ set it to only connect to one network on startup.
[08:57] <MasterShrek> Fxyz2007, for what program?
[08:57] <javaJake> ganesh, OK, if you can't find it in Synaptic, try opening System -> Administration -> Software Sources, and checking all the boxes on the first tab.
[08:57] <ingrid> MasterShrek... Have any tips to where to look? What to search for?
[08:57] <nightangel> yes, that's what i do when i would like to eject the CD, but i need to write a CD and it doesn't works too, so i think there's the same problem for the two bugs
[08:57] <javaJake> ganesh, Oh, OK
[08:57] <javaJake> KristianDK, yea, I think they just started it
[08:57] <javaJake> KristianDK, they announced it fairly recently in the ubuntu mailing list
[08:57] <MasterShrek> ingrid look in ubuntuforums search for intel 3945
[08:57] <MasterShrek> !forums | ingrid
[08:57] <ubotu> ingrid: The Ubuntu forums can be found at http://www.ubuntuforums.org. There is also a channel on IRC Freenode #ubuntuforums.
[08:58] <erin> javaJake: do I just change eth1 to eth0 in that file?
[08:58] <javaJake> Yea
[08:58] <anessen> Hey, I've traced a problem with my wireless PCMCIA card to the wlan-ng drivers on my Prism 2.5 Senao card. It works without them, but I can't use network-manager-gnome to select which network I am connecting to. I think it's a configuration problem. Anyone come across this before?
[08:58] <javaJake> erin, in both lines
[08:58] <faLUCE> s there an audio editor for linux comparable to samplitude?
[08:58] <nightangel> i'm under Ubuntu Studio 7.04, and i had not this problem under Ubuntu 7.04
[08:58] <KristianDK> javaJake, well, ok, ill just keep on looking for something, thanks for your attention :-)
[08:58] <ingrid> Oki.. thanx for all the help.. I'll have a look there
[08:59] <pommer> hey peeps
[08:59] <pommer> take it you all use ubuntu
[08:59] <javaJake> KristianDK, try the ubuntu wiki, I think they have something there.
[08:59] <pommer> im a newby to it.. had it on disk a whiles
[08:59] <javaJake> KristianDK, otherwise search the Ubuntu mailing list
[08:59] <javaJake> pommer, welcome!
[08:59] <thread> Could anyone tell me why synaptic tells me I have linux headers 2.6.22-14 installed, but I apparently have 2.6.22.9 headers in /usr/src/linux/include ?
[08:59] <pommer> whats the deal with firewalls?
[08:59] <pommer> and how can i stop myself drooling over this os. its better then vista ffs
[08:59] <erin> javaJake: Okay, done. I wonder why I'm getting that weird error message when I left-click the panel icon and Connection Information?
[08:59] <ompaul> pommer, for a standard installed desktop no need for one
[09:00] <javaJake> thread, it'd be hard to say why without knowing what happened before that error, if you know what I mean.
[09:00] <pommer> maybe im jus screwed
[09:00] <javaJake> erin, about that...
[09:00] <ompaul> pommer, wrt the drooling no idea
[09:00] <riotkittie> overlord: are you using gnome? go to System Menu > Preferences > Removable Drives [or whatever it is under previous versions]  check the usb/camera tab and see if it's set to deal with cams. Alternately, open a term and mount it. I'm assuming it's got an SD card? in which case, i believe it's treated like a hard drive. at least my last camera was /dev/sdsomething
[09:00] <LordLimecat> pommer: google compiz, compiz fusion, awn, and kiba-dock :)
[09:00] <javaJake> erin, "Glade is the gtk interface designer."
[09:00] <hayashi1> 3R3R
[09:00] <pommer> google what
[09:00] <Samuli^_> I need help with my sound settings
[09:00] <LordLimecat> all of those
[09:00] <pommer> those the only firewalls?
[09:00] <LordLimecat> no, those for the drooling
[09:00] <riotkittie> Fxyz2007: ah D: sorry, then i have no clue.
[09:00] <pommer> damn i was trying to put outpost on here
[09:00] <pommer> lmao
[09:01] <ompaul> pommer, you don't need a firewall I said that already
[09:01] <pommer> how you know i dont need a firewall?
[09:01] <recon> Is there any way to find out which video driver i'm using? (i'm using either ati or fglrx)
[09:01] <LordLimecat> and yea, i think ubuntu has ipchains installed by default
[09:01] <riotkittie> Fxyz2007: wait. can you... are you using ubuntu?
[09:01] <erin> javaJake: Yeah, I saw that post too
[09:01] <loizos_aggelos> which is better? kubuntu or ubuntu
[09:01] <ompaul> pommer, you are doing a desktop its default is secure settings this is not anything like that crock you previously ran
[09:01] <kitche> recon: glxinfo and look at the opengl driver maker
[09:01] <Samuli^_> recon, cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep "Driver"
[09:01] <javaJake> erin, :)
[09:01] <KristianDK> javaJake, ok
[09:01] <erin> javaJake: Should I reinstall something?
[09:01] <ompaul> loizos_aggelos, you install both and you choose
[09:01] <riotkittie> loizos_aggelos: it depends on your own taste. there is no real "better", only different. :P
[09:01] <javaJake> erin, one says they rebooted and it went away. :?
[09:01] <Samuli^_> or glxinfo, I guess. :-)
[09:01] <Bo^Dick> loizos_aggelos: i've heard kubuntu is suitable if your hardware performance is poor
[09:02] <erin> okay, brb
[09:02] <thread> javaJake, I'm trying to install vmware... it's installer script is asking for the kernel headers, and when I tell it /usr/src/linux/include, it says that that dir has headers for linux 2.6.22.9 while I'm currently running on (as the package manager/uname -a agree) 2.6.22-14-generic
[09:02] <overlord> riotkittie: ok, lemme try..
[09:02] <pommer> im sticking with ubuntu cuz... i dig the themes.. free software that blows windows. fact i can just about do anything i need to on it without the expense
[09:02] <thread> its* :D
[09:02] <riotkittie> NO. Bo^Dick. no. no. no. kubuntu does not belong on poor hardware. no no no :P
[09:02] <pommer> just worried about personal data on it
[09:02] <loizos_aggelos> the best look?
[09:02] <pommer> why im considering firewalls
[09:02] <astro76> Bo^Dick, that's the second time I've heard that lately, completely untrue, kde is as demanding as gnome, maybe xfce/xubuntu
[09:02] <Samuli^_> what would I need to do to reconfigure xine?
[09:02] <pommer> and x-chat is a bummer.. one on windows had colored names.... this one dunt
[09:02] <Bo^Dick> astro76: my experience of kubuntu is that it's buggier than ubuntu
[09:03] <Samuli^_> pommer, check the preferences before whining. :-)
[09:03] <LordLimecat> pommer: you have a router, right?
[09:03] <javaJake> erin, no
[09:03] <anessen> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/40649/
[09:03] <kitche> pommer: the one on windows is unofficial unless you paid for xchat
[09:03] <riotkittie> xubuntu's the way to go on less than stellar systems, although xubuntu made me cry when i installed it. :x
[09:03] <pommer> what do i look for in preferences?
[09:03] <ompaul> pommer, it does if you right click on the active window you can change that
[09:03] <Bo^Dick> astro76: and hardly any software that's supported
[09:03] <pommer> and i got a broadband router yeah
[09:03] <Samuli^_> pommer, "colored nicknames" :)
[09:03] <LordLimecat> not to say software firewalls dont have their use, but i think people VASTLY overestimate their necessity for most things
[09:03] <hypn0> nightangel: isn't there a small hole in front of cd drive, if you stick pin in I think that ejects cd too :-/
[09:03] <Samuli^_> it's on the first page
[09:03] <LordLimecat> if you have a modern router, you have a internet firewall
[09:03] <javaJake> thread, OK, it must be a bad symlink?... it's very strange
[09:03] <kenjiru> subversion - what do I have to install to get ra_dav??
[09:03] <darkchr0n0s> riotkittie : why so ?
[09:03] <javaJake> thread, also, are you pointing it to the headers, or the source? :)
[09:03] <hypn0> I never tried though nightangel :-)
[09:03] <smekerce> murat
[09:04] <thread> linux -> linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic
[09:04] <Hilikus_> do winmodems work in ubuntu?
[09:04] <loizos_aggelos> does anyone know how i can participate my hard drive? i  do it but it  always has size only 8mb and i can't change it!
[09:04] <ompaul> !winmodems | Hilikus_
[09:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about winmodems - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:04] <ompaul> !modem | Hilikus_
[09:04] <ubotu> Hilikus_: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[09:04] <riotkittie> darkchr0n0s: it was so. miserably. slow. granted, i did a xubuntu-desktop install, so perhaps it was tainted with pre-existing gnome items :P
[09:04] <pommer> oh fuk i was talkin in wrong channal
[09:04] <LordLimecat> Hilikus_: not sure about current versions, but i think gutsy may have better support on em, saw it in the release notes
[09:04] <pommer> lmao
[09:04] <nightangel> no there's not an hole like you said (i've got a mobile PC)
[09:04] <pommer> sorry people
[09:05] <ompaul> !language | pommer
[09:05] <ubotu> pommer: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:05] <Hilikus_> how can i tell if a modem is a winmodem?
[09:05] <thread> javaJake, totally wacked, right?
[09:05] <wckdkl0wn> how would i use sed to take the text from the end of a line and put it at the beginnging and put a | after the word or words that was moved?
[09:05] <ompaul> Hilikus_, most of the preinstalled ones are
[09:05] <riotkittie> but i didnt notice any improved performance over gnome, and it completely dragged in comparison to zenwalk's xfce desktop.   :P
[09:05] <pommer> only option i get when i click on a active window is copy
[09:05] <javaJake> thread, sounds like it, however, try running dpkg-reconfigure
[09:05] <pommer> hmmmm
[09:05] <javaJake> thread, (I assume you know what I'm talking about?)
[09:05] <Hilikus_> ompaul i ave a coulp of modems in my hand, theyre not preinstalled
[09:05] <nightangel> so...the only thing i've got to do is to go back under Ubuntu 7.04 (or Ubuntu 7.10 beta ;-) )
[09:05] <thread> javaJake, on which package ?
[09:05] <erin> javaJake: You rock!
[09:05] <ompaul> Hilikus_, external or internal?
[09:06] <pommer> yah im on ubuntu 7.04
[09:06] <pommer> with the screen effects
[09:06] <Hilikus_> ompaul internal
[09:06] <pommer> noice :D
[09:06] <riotkittie> winmodem. :o
[09:06] <javaJake> thread, linux-generic, or linux-headers
[09:06] <LordLimecat> pommer: compiz has even more effects.  check it out
[09:06] <javaJake> erin, eh, I try. ;)
[09:06] <ompaul> Hilikus_, so install them and play with the tools on that page
[09:06] <andy58> wooo
[09:06] <pommer> i will in time... gunna get to grips with this un first
[09:06] <astro76> Hilikus_, external serial or internal ISA is guaranteed non-winmodem, pci can be either
[09:06] <javaJake> thread, I don't remember which one does the symlink
[09:06] <andy58> hello all
[09:06] <Hilikus_> ok, ill do that
[09:07] <akincer> Looks like the Screens and Graphics tool needs some work. Had to hand edit xorg.conf to get dual screens working.
[09:07] <pommer> oh oh... i cant seem to figure how to get my wireless g belkin to work
[09:07] <javaJake> thread, actually, heheh...
[09:07] <erin> javaJake: Someday, I will understand Linux and Ubuntu enough to help others. Until next time!
[09:07] <pommer> its the lil usb ariel thing
[09:07] <ompaul> !wireless | pommer
[09:07] <ubotu> pommer: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:07] <riotkittie> pommer: what chipset? if you dont know, lsusb
[09:07] <ompaul> pommer, follow the madwifi info there
[09:07] <javaJake> thread, you might try reconfiguring your latest linux-`uname -r`-headers package instead
[09:07] <pommer> i know which it is
[09:08] <pulseezar> hi all, here's a problem for you. I installed ubuntu on my laptop a couple of days ago, and then installed windows xp onto a separate hard disk. After windows installed I no longer have the option to boot into ubuntu. Can I fix this without reinstalling ubuntu?
[09:08] <javaJake> thread, now that I think about it
[09:08] <astro76> !fixgrub | pulseezar
[09:08] <ubotu> pulseezar: 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
[09:08] <pommer> its the wireless g 56
[09:08] <riotkittie> ompaul: madwifi supports usb ? :o
[09:08] <daddy1987> hi kazim
[09:08] <thread> javaJake, you mean linux-headers-`uname -r` and I just did that ... it appeared to do nothing (not even recreate the symlink)
[09:08] <pommer> even googled the drivers
[09:08] <ompaul> riotkittie, for that oink of a piece of kit it worked for me  on three installs
[09:09] <pommer> supposed to get orriginal and re compile
[09:09] <pommer> o.O
[09:09] <rfgermain> hi i neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed help
[09:09] <pommer> bit above the belt for me
[09:09] <thread> (I deleted the symlink to see if it would remake it)
[09:09] <riotkittie> ompaul: ah :>
[09:09] <ompaul> !ask | rfgermain
[09:09] <pommer> got 48 metres of cable connecting me to ubuntu right now
[09:09] <ubotu> rfgermain: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:09] <Pumpitup> hmm when i try to open gl desktop i get a screen blink but it seems to close right after gl desktop i not enabled
[09:09] <daddy1987> wat is ubuntu
[09:10] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: when i look at the screen options it says "auto"
[09:10] <javaJake> thread, yea, sorry, a little blind right now... :)
[09:10] <pommer> glad this channal aint full of mofos wanting me to get nakid and send pics of my bum
[09:10] <loizos_aggelos> does anyone know how i can participate my hard drive? i  do it but it  always has size only 8mb and i can't change it!

[09:10] <riotkittie> loizos_aggelos: participate?
[09:10] <pommer> <-getting tooo old to send bum pics
[09:10] <thread> javaJake, np.. thanks very much for trying.
[09:10] <kazim59> !ubuntu | daddy1987
[09:10] <ubotu> daddy1987: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[09:10] <ompaul> pommer, I won't ask you again - we don't tolerate that kind of language here
[09:10] <javaJake> thread, OK, looking way back, your symlink is set. :?
[09:10] <snow> i realize there is a general problem with multimonitor on radeon cards, is that correct?
[09:10] <loizos_aggelos> yeah split my hard drive in two
[09:11] <pommer> im congratulating you on a good channal
[09:11] <thread> javaJake, yea I recreated it myself
[09:11] <pommer> refreshing
[09:11] <riotkittie> loizos_aggelos: *partition*?  :P
[09:11] <source_scrash> #fcld in freenode (unix,linux )
[09:11] <loizos_aggelos> yeah sorry
[09:11] <loizos_aggelos> i'm from greece
[09:11] <pommer> you should check out irq.. bad stuff
[09:11] <riotkittie> loizos_aggelos: how are you trying to partition it? what are you using?
[09:11] <astro76> pommer, this channel and the community is one of the many benefits of Ubuntu ;)
[09:11] <javaJake> thread, OK
[09:11] <pommer> seems it
[09:11] <riotkittie> i <3 this channel.
[09:11] <pommer> how old you people
[09:11] <pommer> not that age matters
[09:11] <loizos_aggelos> elive
[09:11] <aolaus> only certain people would consider an IRC channel a boon
[09:11] <astro76> pommer, I'm sure it's all over the place
[09:11] <javaJake> thread, I was thinking about doing that, but since I don't like meddling with kernel stuff without a reassuring package doing it for me, I didn't mention it. :)
[09:11] <rfgermain> Hi am new to, irc, ubuntu, linux - fresh of the banna boat, but i want to know why the kubuntu i downloaded doesnt show up on my ubuntu? dont laugh if am just wrong
[09:12] <riotkittie> i remember my first venture into a linux channel. it was slackware related. and my unmasked host showed that i was on aol. that was ugly. <thinks back fondly>
[09:12] <underwatercow> pommer: We are all collectively 3,687 years old. ;-D
[09:12] <pommer> evolution is a bit of a pain
[09:12] <pommer> crikey
[09:12] <daddy1987> y we use dis crap??
[09:12] <pommer> i aint after that kind of info. but hey.. facts kill braincells like any beer.. and im all for beer
[09:12] <underwatercow> pommer: Hey, I like evolution! :-p except for a glitch that no one else seems to find
[09:12] <daddy1987> i mean ubuntu
[09:13] <pommer> well im on a pop3 rocker email service
[09:13] <riotkittie> if you think so lowly of it, daddy1987, you're free to uninstall
[09:13] <pommer> all smtp and pop enabled etc... got everything.. can recieve mails.. cant send though
[09:13] <ompaul> !offtopic
[09:13] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:13] <mobodo> by default, when I install exim4 on ubuntu, it doesn't start listening on port 25 for smtp connections does it?
[09:14] <thread> javaJake, I even installed linux-source, and when I decompress it, cd linux-source-2.6.22, and make menuconfig, the darn thing is 2.6.22.9 !
[09:14] <loizos_aggelos> i change the bios and read first the cd-rom  and  i  try to install  it  but  it say  that my second hard drive is only 8mb :( and i can't change the size :(
[09:14] <pommer> me hungrey
[09:14] <ompaul> mobodo, it does - yuou install a server your box expects you did it to run it ...
[09:14] <daddy1987> windows is so gud
[09:14] <javaJake> thread, ooohhh
[09:14] <javaJake> thread, are you doing custom kernels?
[09:14] <riotkittie> loizos_aggelos: have you tried partitioning with gparted?
[09:14] <javaJake> thread, those are beyond my expertise. ;)
[09:14] <ompaul> pommer, you are offtopic
[09:14] <thread> javaJake, no, this is a fresh gutsy install from the other day
[09:14] <loizos_aggelos> yeah itried but is still not working
[09:15] <mobodo> ompaul: ok, then something is wrong - I have installed exim, I can send mail from my box, but it does not accept connections on port 25
[09:15] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, it doesnt give you any other options besides auto though? if not u may need to be running that as root
[09:15] <javaJake> thread, Oh, OK
[09:15] <thread> javaJake, I only installed hte source to see what I would get... synaptic is telling me 2.6.22-14-generic while I'm actually getting 2.6.22.9 !
[09:15] <pommer> how do i find out (getting back on topic)... how much hd space i got left?
[09:15] <thread> all very confusing for me....
[09:15] <riotkittie> thread: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support. theyre better equipped to help you there
[09:15] <thread> oh yea?
[09:15] <javaJake> thread, it could be a package bug!
[09:15] <ompaul> mobodo, do this sudo dpkg-reconfigure exim and tell it all it wants to know
[09:15] <javaJake> thread, especially since Gutsy is still in beta/alpha/RC stage.
[09:16] <loizos_aggelos> plz what can i do?
[09:16] <thread> yea.. it's due in less than a week, tho, yea?
[09:16] <Plouj> hi guys, my sound stopped working after my last reboot, I can't find any error messages or logs that can indicate what is wrong
[09:16] <loizos_aggelos> i change the bios and read first the cd-rom  and  i  try to install  it  but  it say  that my second hard drive is only 8mb :( and i can't change the size :(
[09:16] <underwatercow> pommer: goto Computer in places, right click on Filesystem, and goto properties
[09:16] <mobodo> ompaul: I did, the only option I'm not too sure is "IP-addresses to listen on for incoming SMTP connections" - that should be 127.0.0.1, correct?
[09:16] <pommer> size is.... unknown
[09:16] <pommer> o.O
[09:16] <riotkittie> loizos_aggelos:  stupid question, but are you selecting the right hard drive in gparted?   i know when i open it, it defaults to my DVD drive, and not a hard drive
[09:16] <pommer> well it was 160 gig before
[09:17] <akincer> Anyone else having problems with displayconfig-gtk?
[09:17] <mobodo> ompaul: ahhh! probably not :) that probably means only localhost can send
[09:17] <pommer> oh crikey i got another question... why is this dist only supported to 2008?
[09:17] <underwatercow> anyone else use sbackup? I can't figure out what the simply option does...
[09:17] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Really new to linux and command lines: "qmake: not found" what just happened ?
[09:17] <loizos_aggelos> no the left i think!!
[09:17] <rfgermain> what is kubuntu?
[09:17] <gnomefreak> akincer: join #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[09:17] <Fxyz2007>  i have downloaded the deb of ntfs-3g,  should i also download the dependencies?  and if i should download them, in which folder should i put them? it's for a friend of mine which has no internet
[09:17] <pommer> its the latest one.. yet the prior 6 vers. is supported till 2009 or summin
[09:17] <akincer> Ahh, thanks
[09:17] <rfgermain> i have this ubuntu?
[09:17] <ephracis> rfgermain: it is ubuntu with the kde interface.
[09:18] <riotkittie> brb. i have to go get my laundry, so forgive my silence. :P
[09:18] <astro76> pommer, normal releases are supported for 18 months, LTS releases are 3 years for the desktop, 5 years for the server
[09:18] <javaJake> thread, yep, it is.
[09:18] <thread> a bug?
[09:18] <thread> known?
[09:18] <loizos_aggelos> guys can you help me with this?i change the bios and read first the cd-rom  and  i  try to install  it  but  it say  that my second hard drive is only 8mb :( and i can't change the size :(
[09:18] <riotkittie> Fxyz2007: yes, get the dependencies as well, in case said friend doesnt have them. it doesnt matter which folder you put them in
[09:18] <underwatercow> pommer: Gutsy releases in 4 days, which is the new version
[09:18] <MasterShrek> wow compiling a kernel in ubuntu is extraordinarily easy
[09:18] <pommer> gusty?
[09:18] <[MH] NarcismLapto> Really new to linux and command lines: "qmake: not found" what just happened ?, I tried sudo apt-get install qmake? that didn't work
[09:18] <pommer> whats LTS?
[09:18] <astro76> !gutsy | pommer

[09:19] <Amaranth> MasterShrek: It also takes forever (if you use the package) :)
[09:19] <junkeR> is using Opera in Gnome inefficient?  Should I use it in a KDE environment instead?
[09:19] <astro76> rfgermain, ask your question in here if you want help
[09:19] <[MH] NarcismLapto> lamego: how would i go about getting those?
[09:19] <underwatercow> pommer: The one you are running now is codenamed Feisty Fawn, version 7.04... the new version is code named Gutsy Gibbon and is version 7.10
[09:19] <MasterShrek> [MH] NarcismLapto, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:19] <javaJake> rfgermain, please post your Q here.
[09:19] <pommer> ok... jus member i been with windows over 10 years
[09:19] <lamego> junkeR, opera uses QT, it will work just fine on gnome
[09:19] <Amaranth> junkeR: It just uses Qt, it's fine
[09:19] <pommer> well... 15
[09:19] <ompaul> mobodo, sorry I am now working on something else not available
[09:19] <kazim59> astro76: what will be the most stritking difference btw. gusty & fiesty?
[09:19] <pommer> im getting into it
[09:19] <MasterShrek> Amaranth, yea thats what im doing, but well see, im running dual core 64 bit it shouldnt take THAT long
[09:19] <mobodo> ompaul: np
[09:19] <junkeR> isn't QT a KDE library though?
[09:19] <pommer> yeah... feisty fawn is awesome
[09:19] <lamego> [MH] NarcismLapto, apt-cache search lib qt dev
[09:19] <astro76> kazim59, http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/gutsybeta

[09:20] <loizos_aggelos> guys can you help me with this?i change the bios and read first the cd-rom  and  i  try to install  it  but  it say  that my second hard drive is only 8mb :( and i can't change the size :(
[09:20] <astro76> kazim59, there's the highlights
[09:20] <pommer> vista the latest
[09:20] <lamego> junkeR, there is no problem on using KDE lib based apps on gnome
[09:20] <pommer> i hate it
[09:20] <pommer> slow down pc so much.. and aint worth it for what it does
[09:20] <Amaranth> MasterShrek: 64-bit does not help, dual core does not help
[09:20] <pommer> plus support is out for 3 years
[09:20] <underwatercow> pommer: I have vista, and I hate it, lol... but I used it for my games
[09:20] <kazim59> astro76: someone advised me not to have gusty but wait for the stable release...
[09:20] <Amaranth> MasterShrek: It requires raw speed
[09:20] <pommer> ONLY  YEARS SUPPORT ON BOUGHT GOODS
[09:20] <pommer> its a nightmare
[09:20] <pommer> *3
[09:20] <Amaranth> MasterShrek: And the linux-image source package builds like 4 different kernels
[09:20] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: still same running as root
[09:20] <astro76> kazim59, I would advise to wait, it's coming out Thursday
[09:20] <pommer> well i use the wii
[09:20] <pommer> WII WRAWKS
[09:21] <javaJake> pommer, we should stay on topic.

[09:23] <astro76> underwatercow, hopefully there will be many little (or not so) bugfixes, actually
[09:23] <loizos_aggelos> can you guys just answer my question?
[09:23] <Pumpitup> how do i make compiz skip the blacklist chek?
[09:23] <pommer> can i play half life 2 on ubuntu?
[09:23] <MasterShrek> underwatercow, if there were no changes, why would it be called an rc and not just the release/\?
[09:23] <pommer> only bought it last week.
[09:23] <MasterShrek> !wine | pommer
[09:23] <ubotu> pommer: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[09:24] <imbecile_> anybody know what "null pointer exception" means?
[09:24] <underwatercow> pommer: see http://appdb.winehq.com
[09:24] <javaJake> rfgermain, try going to System -> Administration -> Software Sources, uncheck the CD in the first tab, and re-add your CD into the second tab.
[09:24] <adek> is there anybody have a ubuntu 64-bit kernel with dmraid45 patch included?

[09:25] <ubotu> daddy1988: Please watch your language and topic, and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:25] <underwatercow> MasterShrek, astro76: Isn't the main point of the RC to test and make sure there are no bugs that require the delay of the release?
[09:25] <astro76> !ops | daddy1988
[09:25] <aleka> javaJake: looked in there.. didn't see anything with 'spell'

[09:26] <underwatercow> pommer: I have the 8800gts, and I still find it very useful ;-D I'll take your gtx though...
[09:26] <astro76> angloman, it depends what your goal is, in my opinion unless your goal is to attempt to find and report last minute bugs, wait
[09:26] <yoopernate2004> so i have the ati control center and everything i THINK direct rendering is enabled but ubuntu's visual effects under the system pref>appearance won't work.  it keeps telling me that composite extensioin is not available

[09:27] <[MH] NarcismLapto> kitche, I tried sudo apt-get install qmake, I'm really new to this stuff
[09:27] <underwatercow> pommer: lol... I thought you were feeling charitable. I find it useful from anything ranging from desktop effects to playing graphically intensive games both in Linux and Windows
[09:28] <underwatercow> Anyone in here try installing the Creative X-Fi drivers in ubuntu?
[09:28] <pommer> k... what graphically intense games are there on linux?

[09:34] <javaJake> pommer, heh, np

[09:34] <underwatercow> winchesterPAT: lol, I don't
[09:34] <winchesterPAT> sure
[09:34] <javaJake> aleka, you need to be running Gutsy for it to be officially supported
[09:35] <Lr5> Any ideas what could be wrong with my internet?
[09:35] <javaJake> aleka, or else you'll have to use someone else's (possibly crappy) package to install it
[09:35] <riotkittie> where'd my friend with the dpkg issue go?
[09:35] <sd32> does anyone know when firefox will be updated again,its been awhile since 2007 came out?
[09:35] <javaJake> Lr5, no, not enough info.
[09:35] <sparr> At some point around February of this year, apache 2.x started keeping its files in /etc/apache2 and /var/log/apache2 and so on.  Some other packages seem unaware of this change, webalizer in particular.  Can anyone provide any insight?
[09:35] <javaJake> Lr5, what card are you running?
[09:35] <Lr5> javaJake: some integrated I think, let me find out
[09:36] <javaJake> Lr5, oooo... ;)
[09:36] <riotkittie> noo.
[09:36] <lamego> sd32, software is not updated after the release except for critical bugs
[09:36] <rfgermain> i have bt home hub, for those of you not from england its a voip phone and wireless hub in 1, i have a piece of shit running ubuntu - obviously the internet works with the ethernet cable connected into the back of the hub! no probs, but i have a usb wireless adapter and cant get it to talk to hub?
[09:37] <underwatercow> anyone in here use sbackup?
[09:37] <sd32> lamego..what?   its been updating up to 2006???????
[09:37] <joshritger> !podcast
[09:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about podcast - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:37] <lamego> it is updated, with security fixes, not with features
[09:37] <LeChacal> hello does anyone here know the GRUB entry for Mac OS X 10.4.3 or if Mac is even supported? I checked the GRUB site and didnt find anything.
[09:37] <lamego> erm, with
[09:37] <sd32> lamego, so 2007 will never come out for linux?
[09:37] <kitche> LeChacal: if grub doesn't mention it then no but probably uses a bsd setup for grub but no clue
[09:37] <javaJake> underwatercow, used to before I discovered BackupPC
[09:37] <pommer> where do i get more ubuntu window themes>#
[09:37] <pommer> ?
[09:38] <runemaste644> im trying to kill a window in gnome
[09:38] <kal> i just got my comp... can't wait to install gusty
[09:38] <javaJake> pommer, gnome-look.org?
[09:38] <runemaste644> How do i do that?
[09:38] <underwatercow> javaJake: is it better for some reason?
[09:38] <kal> should i make a cd of the Release Candidate?
[09:38] <darkchr0n0s> kal : too bad you have to wait
[09:38] <radioman_> why you kill, be gentle with gnome ;}
[09:38] <runemaste644> i killed its process
[09:38] <lamego> sd32, there is no such thing as "for linux", I am referring to the firefox package for Ubuntu
[09:38] <pommer> gnome-look.org?
[09:38] <javaJake> underwatercow, better for multiple computers, and it just does backup better. sbackup is a bit clumsier, but it'll do the job.
[09:38] <runemaste644> but its still there
[09:38] <javaJake> underwatercow, but very difficult to configure
[09:38] <riotkittie> runemaste644: killall process or kill -9 process
[09:39] <riotkittie> you can also fire up xkill
[09:39] <sd32> lamego, thats what im talking about also
[09:39] <runemaste644> THE PROCESS IS DEAT BUT THE WINDOW IS STILL THERE
[09:39] <[MH] NarcismLapto> How do I install qmake? sudo apt-get install _____ ?
[09:39] <Mark7> Hello.  Does anyone know a Simple Instant Messenger IRC channel?
[09:39] <javaJake> !caps | runemaste644
[09:39] <ubotu> runemaste644: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[09:39] <underwatercow> javaJake: Well, SBackup seems to serve my purposes... I'm just not clear on what the "Simply" option does in the scheduler as opposed to choosing a precise time... Was that option there when you used it?
[09:39] <Lr5> javaJake: Ethernet controller: Realtek SEmiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 01)
[09:39] <kitche> [MH] NarcismLapto: it might be part of one of the qt -dev packages
[09:39] <astro76> runemaste644, alt+f2, type xkill, click on the window
[09:39] <sd32> lamego, the 2.0.0.7 is to fix  a quicktime expolitt
[09:40] <lamego> sd32, the latest firefox is available for any linux distribution, if you do a manual installation
[09:40] <javaJake> Lr5, that's ethernet. Is that not working?
[09:40] <kitche> [MH] NarcismLapto: I would do apt-cache search qmake
[09:40] <Lr5> javaJake: nope, not working
[09:40] <runemaste644> Thanks!
[09:40] <javaJake> underwatercow, no, I used it a long time ago...
[09:40] <lamego> however, you should keep with the supported versions, which are, the released versions plus security fixes
[09:40] <javaJake> underwatercow, back before there was a forked project
[09:40] <javaJake> Lr5, OK
[09:40] <runemaste644> and i learned a new command
[09:40] <[MH] NarcismLapto> thanks kitche!
[09:40] <rfgermain> if you buy a wireless adapter made for windows and the install disk is all windows files? what do you do to get it working?
[09:40] <LeChacal> kitche: ill try that i didnt think of that and OSX is unix based and BSD is probably pretty close
[09:40] <astro76> sd32, Firefox is the one exception in Ubuntu, it does get updates to the latest Firefox versions
[09:40] <kal> read the manual
[09:41] <axjv> I just accidentally xkill'd firefox... Lol.
[09:41] <astro76> sd32, within days of them coming out
[09:41] <kal> u'll learn a lot of new and cool commands :)
[09:41] <Blackkatt> can anyone help me with installing xbmc on ubuntu ..that freaking make wount complete.
[09:41] <lamego> rfgermain, I would check the model, and search on google if someone had success using it on linux, and how
[09:41] <sd32> astro, thankss
[09:41] <kitche> LeChacal: Mac is sorta based on freebsd but they are getting away from a lot of the freebsd stuff since it's a hybrid system now
[09:41] <runemaste644> Where is a BitTorrent Meta File?
[09:41] <Mark7> Sim
[09:41] <lamego> Blackkatt, please pastebin your error
[09:41] <Mark7> Anyone?
[09:41] <rfgermain> thanks lamego, i apologise for my retardness
[09:42] <runemaste644> i cant find one so i cannot use BitTorrent
[09:42] <Blackkatt> lamego: okay... will do
[09:42] <javaJake> Lr5, http://www.phoronix.com/blogs/david/?k=blog&i=60 - maybe not you, but worth a read
[09:42] <darkchr0n0s> Mark7 : what exactly are you looking for ?
[09:42] <Mark7> Okay.  Can anyone tell me why Sim-IM has such a hard time with Yahoo?
[09:42] <underwatercow> javaJake: The tutorial I found didn't have that as an option either... I'm guessing it must backup, though perhaps not on a set schedule...  maybe based on CPU usage?
[09:42] <lamego> rfgermain, no problem, when your hw is not supported out of the box, probably someone spent some time playing with it ;)
[09:42] <Mark7> Hey Dark/  See above
[09:42] <neopsyche> Still nothing on nvidia
[09:43] <neopsyche> for rez
[09:43] <darkchr0n0s> Mark7 : you want a messenger ?
[09:43] <javaJake> underwatercow, yea, it might "simply" backup whenever convenient, i.e., guessing based on certain factors.
[09:43] <lamego> underwatercow, never saw a backup based on cpu usage, is not something very sane for a backup run :)
[09:43] <darkchr0n0s> Mark7 : install pidgin
[09:43] <ticnailer69> how can I edit the xorg.conf file to allow me to use a 1600x1200 resolution?
[09:43] <Lr5> javaJake: worth a try, brb
[09:43] <neopsyche> I need to change resolution on ubuntu.. i need some resolution for this problem :-)
[09:43] <neopsyche> using nvidia gf6600
[09:43] <darkchr0n0s> ticnailer69 : look for the pattern in the xorg.conf file
[09:43] <Varongitano> hi i need help
[09:43] <axjv> neopsyche: You'd be better off using 905resoluation.
[09:43] <axjv> 905reolustion*
[09:44] <neopsyche> its stuck on 800x600
[09:44] <axjv> 905resolution*
[09:44] <underwatercow> lamego: well, I'm just grasping at straws... ;-D You can tell it to backup precisely or simply, and simply doesn't let you choose when at all... any better ideas?
[09:44] <ticnailer69> yeah
[09:44] <ticnailer69> lame
[09:44] <Draconicus> Hey, I've been bouncing around between video cards for a while now. I'm back on my old GeForce 2 (with nvidia-glx-legacy installed), and when I try to start with the nvidia driver I get an error saying it couldn't "run the nvidia install command". What's going on?
[09:44] <lamego> underwatercow, reading the manual ;)
[09:44] <axjv> I mean, 915resolution x.X
[09:44] <underwatercow> lamego: I've been trying to find a manual
[09:44] <javaJake> Lr5, brb
[09:44] <lamego> underwatercow, for sbackup ?
[09:44] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: when i check the settings in the sysinfo nvidia gui it says "auto" where i should be able to change resoltions.
[09:44] <underwatercow> lamego: yes
[09:45] <Varongitano> I downloaded the x386 version of ubuntu from ubuntus web page but i cant boot from disk, I receive a message " boot corrupted "
[09:45] <runemaste644> i need a bittorrent meta file
[09:45] <runemaste644> where do i get one?
[09:45] <javaJake> runemaste644, for what?
[09:45] <runemaste644> BitTorrent
[09:45] <lamego> underwatercow, man simple-backup
[09:45] <crossbones> broadcom wifi how do I get it working on 7.10 beta
[09:46] <underwatercow> lamego: rotfl... well that was the obvious answer
[09:46] <crossbones> its integraded chip on laptop

[09:46] <lamego> underwatercow, dpkg -L sbackup
[09:46] <underwatercow> lamego: I guess because I don't use it on the command line, it didn't occure to me to check the man pages
[09:46] <Varongitano> hi i need help plz
[09:46] <lamego> that was how I found the man pages
[09:46] <darkchr0n0s> crossbones : goto site, they have decent instructions there
[09:46] <runemaste644> I don't want no steenkin meta file
[09:46] <Draconicus> runemaste644: Search for "torrent" in Synaptic
[09:46] <Varongitano> hi i need help plz
[09:47] <Draconicus> To hell with this nightmare. I hate Ubuntu support channels. ._.
[09:47] <lamego> underwatercow, np, man is the standard linux man page access ;)
[09:47] <Varongitano> hi i need help plz
[09:47] <underwatercow> lamego: I know this, I just wasn't thinking clearly about it ;-D
[09:47] <darkchr0n0s> Varongitano : just ask the question
[09:47] <ticnailer69> How can I change that resolution in the xorg.conf file?
[09:47] <Varongitano> I downloaded the x386 version of ubuntu from ubuntus web page but i cant boot from disk, I receive a message " boot corrupted "
[09:47] <crossbones> thank you darkchr0n0s
[09:48] <javaJake> Varongitano, this is when you boot the CD?
[09:48] <Varongitano> yes
[09:48] <Varongitano> I dont know what to do
[09:48] <Varongitano> I never used ubuntu
[09:48] <IndyGunFreak> burn another disk?
[09:48] <javaJake> Varongitano, you should reburn the CD - it sounds like it wasn't burned right
[09:48] <Varongitano> i tried mandriva but not ubuntu
[09:48] <ticnailer69> I've tried changing the res to 1600x1200 but when I go to desktop setting the new resolution change is not there...
[09:49] <Varongitano> java JAke I thought it was the cd
[09:49] <underwatercow> lamego: the man pages are useless
[09:49] <L0GAN> will ubuntu perse need username and password?
[09:49] <IndyGunFreak> underwatercow: ????? the man pages are chok full of info,...
[09:49] <javaJake> Lr5, it looks like your card should work no problem. :?
[09:49] <Varongitano> but how much space available do i need to have in my hard disk
[09:49] <underwatercow> IndyGunFreak: the simple-backup man pages are useless
[09:49] <sd32> will firefox  2.0.0.7 be in the gutsy update?
[09:49] <IndyGunFreak> if u say so.
[09:49] <javaJake> Lr5, I cannot help anymore since I need to go
[09:50] <underwatercow> IndyGunFreak: lol, you jumped in to the middle of a conversation, but thanks ;-D
[09:50] <lamego> sd32,  2.0.0.6
[09:50] <Lr5> javaJake: kk, cya
[09:50] <Varongitano> javaJake
[09:50] <Varongitano> but how much space available do i need to have in my hard disk
[09:50] <astro76> sd32, like I said, it will get the latest Firefox versions
[09:50] <IndyGunFreak> underwatercow: ya, i just have always foudn the man pages  pretty informative.
[09:50] <dgjones> ticnailer69, you may need to modify your horizsync and vertrefresh settings to match your monitors capeabilities before the new resolution will work, check your monitor manual & make sure that those settings are right in the xorg.conf
[09:50] <javaJake> Varongitano, 2GB at least
[09:50] <ticnailer69> got you
[09:50] <sd32> astro76, ok thanks
[09:50] <javaJake> Varongitano, more if you install extra software and have lots of docs and stuff in your home dir
[09:50] <underwatercow> IndyGunFreak: I do too... but this program isn't very well documented...
[09:50] <Varongitano> yeap, its ok with that, but can I start from CD when Im running XP?
[09:50] <javaJake> Varongitano, I recommend at least 10GB, no less, but the minimum required for install is 2GB
[09:51] <IndyGunFreak> underwatercow: could be.
[09:51] <javaJake> Varongitano, no, not yet
[09:51] <javaJake> Varongitano, they are working on that. :)
[09:51] <javaJake> Varongitano, ttyl
[09:51] <Tarkus_> hey, anyone here using emesene? i have myself added on my contacts. but it wont show my display picture (avatar).. any idea how i can get it to show my own avatar?
[09:51] <tom_> Hi can anyone tell me how to setup amsn in fiesty please?! or how to get the cam working on kopete?
[09:51] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, but it doesnt give you any other options, cuz it should, and if it doesnt then you probably dont have your gfx driver installed correctly
[09:51] <Varongitano> ok, cause I have Start.exe file but nothing happens
[09:51] <Ashfire908> is there another way of logging someone out other than killing their bash?
[09:51] <javaJake> Varongitano, pm-ed you my e-mail
[09:51] <javaJake> Varongitano, and, no, running it in Windows will not help
[09:51] <The_Joe_> Can anyone tell me how to install packages from .tar.gz archives?
[09:52] <D0ug16> Would somone please be able to help me?
[09:52] <lamego> underwatercow, have you run simple-backup-config as mentioned on the manual ?
[09:52] <MasterAslan> My system is unbootable.  It stops at loading manual drivers.  two lines before that it does say udevd-event[3597] : run_program: '/sbin/modeprobe' abnormal exit.
[09:52] <Varongitano> ok, so I have to re burn a cd, and then try it again?
[09:52] <javaJake> !ask | D0ug16
[09:52] <ubotu> D0ug16: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:52] <codecaine> The_Joe I can tell you how to extract files from it but it could be anything in there to install files in it
[09:52] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: how can i install it correctly?
[09:52] <harry_> The_Joe_: A tar.gz of source files?
[09:52] <MasterAslan> picture of what I can get in from alt + sysreq + t
[09:52] <MasterAslan> http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w16/brianmichaelh/ubuntu/14102007035.jpg
[09:53] <The_Joe_> codecaine: I'm sure I know how to extract
[09:53] <The_Joe_> harry_: Well I got it from packages.ubuntu ^^
[09:53] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: It gives me the graphics 3D ok for cube effect etc.. so 3d works.. but its just stuck in 800x600
[09:53] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, you dont install them, you have to compile them, extract it and cd to the directory, then run    ./configure   when thats done run   make   after that   sudo make_install
[09:53] <D0ug16> dpkg: failed to open package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/status' for reading: No such file or directory -- That is the message I get when I try to run 'dpkg --configure -a' to fix the package manager.
[09:53] <tgm4883> is there a channel for ubuntu wiki help or should I ask in here?  I'm trying to get a picture to link
[09:53] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: Thanks
[09:53] <Varongitano> im going to try egain... c ya
[09:53] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, ic, well then its probably set up correctly, type:   lsmod | grep nvidia   in a terminal and see if it gives you any output
[09:54] <underwatercow> lamego: I manged to discover that simply is "meant for anacron". Does that mean anything to you?
[09:54] <D0ug16> Please I'm desperate for help.
[09:54] <markelhas> !WL107G
[09:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wl107g - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:54] <markelhas> !Asus WL107G
[09:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about asus wl107g - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:54] <astro76> tgm4883, I think you need to upload the image file to the wiki page
[09:54] <porkpie> hi guy's  I am runing a 64bit xen kernel and want to build a 32bit domU using debootstrap but I am not sure of the url to use for the 32bit os
[09:54] <lamego> underwatercow, yes, anacron is a scheduler
[09:54] <The_Joe_> Hopefully after doing this I'll have internet on my Ubuntu laptop
[09:54] <markelhas> need some help to config my asus WL107G.
[09:54] <darkchr0n0s> MasterShrek : when will the question round stop ;)
[09:54] <tgm4883> astro76, the image is on there.  What I want is someone to be able to click on the picture and have them linked somewhere
[09:55] <SanityInAnarchy> How do I get hald to notice a new wireless card? (without rebooting)
[09:55] <lamego> underwatercow, man anacron :)
[09:55] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, you need to: sudo apt-get install build-essential     first
[09:55] <harry_> The_Joe: why not install a .deb file?
[09:55] <underwatercow> lamego: already on it, lol... but I'm still not sure how to know when the program will run
[09:55] <nomaS> !java
[09:55] <MasterShrek> darkchr0n0s, never lol
[09:55] <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
[09:55] <astro76> tgm4883, can't do that, MoinMoin isn't very full featured
[09:55] <opexoc> Is there anyone who can tell me why if I execute ls -l | egrep h[23] o then it throws nothing, but if I execute ls -l | egrep h[23]  then it throws h2o and h3o name of files?
[09:55] <tgm4883> :(
[09:55] <porkpie> currently I use this command that downloads the 64bit os debootstrap edgy /mnt/xen/ http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
[09:55] <The_Joe_> harry_: I couldn't find a .deb actually
[09:56] <Lr5> Is there any chance something could have messed up my internet configuration?
[09:56] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: nvidia               4713780  32
[09:56] <neopsyche> i2c_core               22784  2 i2c_ec,nvidia
[09:56] <neopsyche> agpgart                35400  2 nvidia,intel_agp
[09:56] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: Will that require internet?
[09:56] <porkpie> what is the name of the 32bit server version of ubuntu
[09:56] <markelhas> need some help to config my asus WL107G.
[09:56] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, i suppose it will, but in order to compile something you need that
[09:56] <markelhas> can't connect to my router with wpa
[09:56] <underwatercow> How is it determined when an anacron task should run?
[09:57] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: Well that defeats the whole point of ndiswrapper -.-
[09:57] <ticnailer69> "FREQUENCY - Horz.: 30 ~ 97 KHz        Vert.: 50 ~ 180 Hz " do these values correspond to the vertrefresh and horizsync settings in the xorg.conf file?
[09:57] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, ok your driver is working, have you looked at /etc/X11/xorg.conf yet?
[09:57] <Lr5> umm
[09:57] <Lr5> that's strange
[09:57] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, can u get it plugged in wired just for enough time to download those packages?
[09:57] <Lr5> I can connect to my router
[09:57] <Lr5> but nothing else
[09:57] <L0GAN> when using Fat32 for the WUBI virtual disk to install ubuntu on, the filesystem allows files of 4GB max. Will WUBI split it when using larger files?
[09:57] <MasterShrek> ticnailer69, yes
[09:57] <fevel> can someone help me?
[09:57] <neopsyche> mastershrek: i will look now
[09:58] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: Um. Our internet connection is retarded like tha
[09:58] <MasterShrek> !ask | fevel
[09:58] <ubotu> fevel: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:58] <underwatercow> lamego: So does anacron execute as often as possible within the parameters then?
[09:58] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek:So... no
[09:58] <fevel> i have turned on desktop effects but there is no button to turn it off
[09:58] <Lr5> now lan, too. :s
[09:58] <lamego> underwatercow, it is you which must setup the task on /etc/anacrontab
[09:58] <ticnailer69> So I should set the horizsync setting to 30-97?
[09:58] <underwatercow> lamego: the program sets it up, all I have to do is click "simply"
[09:58] <lamego> underwatercow, jobs are called by anacron, as defined on /etc/anacrontab
[09:58] <brianski> is there a way i can call printk() from the cmdline? or some other way to see how much time has elapsed since boot so i can make sense of the timestamps in dmesg?
[09:58] <MasterShrek> fevel, where did you turn them on? go back and uncheck the box
[09:58] <The_Joe_> I can probably find it on packages.ubuntu anyway
[09:58] <fevel> how do i go about turning off desktop effects
[09:58] <lamego> ok, so it is setup with a given schedule, which you can check on the anacron config
[09:58] <fevel> MasterShrek, I did that but it seems something is still active
[09:59] <MasterShrek> ticnailer69, somewhere in there, it will probably automatically set it to whatever the monitor handles
[09:59] <MasterShrek> fevel, did you restart your xserver?
[09:59] <ticnailer69> sh
[09:59] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: pastebin
[09:59] <fevel> and another simple question I have is how do I set beryl as default window manager
[09:59] <underwatercow> lamego: I'm asking about how anacron actually workds as opposed to cron. Cron will only execute at a given time and will skip if the computer was off... anacron runs as often as possible with the time delay you set, right?
[09:59] <lamego> underwatercow, correct
[09:59] <fevel> because when I restart my system beryl is inactive
[09:59] <L0GAN> anyone know wubi?
[10:00] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: http://pastebin.com/d6543c77
[10:00] <neopsyche> MasterShrek: xorg.conf
[10:00] <lamego> underwatercow, anyway, that is described on the first page of the anacron man ;)
[10:00] <ticnailer69> MasterShrek, well, I don't think that it is doing that because I have set the resolution to the highest setting that the monitor can handle but when i go to change it in the settings, all I see is 800x600
[10:01] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, how did u install your nvidia driver? through the restricted drivers manager?
[10:01] <MasterShrek> ticnailer69, thats the same problem that neopsyche is having
[10:01] <ticnailer69> hmm
[10:02] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: I'm not sure what you mean by ./configure
[10:02] <ticnailer69> I'm just being careful not to mess up the settings
[10:02] <neopsyche> first installed using sudo apt-get install i think.
[10:02] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, type that after you cd to the directory
[10:02] <neopsyche> Then i enabled it in the manager.
[10:02] <neopsyche> Because it was disabled
[10:02] <ticnailer69> neopsyche, Are you having problems with the resolution settings too?
[10:02] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: Ah
[10:03] <The_Joe_> I get a bash ^^
[10:03] <MasterShrek> neopsyche, ic, i always use the drivers from nvidias site
[10:03] <harry_> When I try to launch xman, it gives me Xman Error: No manual pages found.
[10:03] <neopsyche> where?
[10:03] <nios> how to create a root user ?
[10:04] <MasterShrek> harry_, i think u need to put something after that, the program for which you want a manual page for
[10:04] <ubersoldat> nios: what for?
[10:04] <neopsyche> i heard theres a way to install drivers so that the nvidia screen pops up before the login screen
[10:04] <MasterShrek> !root | nios
[10:04] <ubotu> nios: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[10:04] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: Apparently there is no ./configure
[10:04] <Lr5> umm, how's it possible that ping can access google.com but firefox can't?
[10:04] <Rich4> What cd ripper works best on ubuntu?
[10:04] <harry_> MasterShrek: No, I read the manpage and you pick after is starts
[10:04] <IndyGunFreak> !rip
[10:04] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, well then skip it and type: make
[10:04] <ubotu> For information about the Sound Juicer ripping application see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CDRipping. To rip an Audio CD in KDE, put it in and then put audiocd:// in the Konqueror URL bar
[10:05] <harry_> MasterShrek: where are the man pages in Ubuntu?
[10:05] <nios> ah sudo -i
[10:05] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: I get several unreadable errors
[10:05] <nios> ;)
[10:05] <Lr5> oops, wrong computer, nevermind
[10:05] <_steiner_> man man
[10:05] <IndyGunFreak> harry_: in the terminal, type "man program name".. for instance, "man firefox"
[10:05] <MasterShrek> harry_, /usr/share/doc
[10:05] <The_Joe_> Same with make install
[10:06] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, did you apt-get install build-essential
[10:06] <andy58> lo all
[10:06] <lamego> The_Joe_, what are you trying to build ?
[10:06] <_steiner_> anyone successfully installed oracle 9i (9208) on ubuntu?
[10:06] <The_Joe_> lamego: ndiswrapper
[10:06] <MasterShrek> The_Joe_, isnt ndiswrapper on the cd?
[10:06] <MasterShrek> i know there is an ubuntu package of it somewhere
[10:06] <Faltzer> I'm in a tight spot here. =/
[10:07] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: Apparently not, I tried it but it said "No current version installed"
[10:07] <andy58> will the Ubuntu 7.1 release require reinstall? or will it update?
[10:07] <lamego> The_Joe_, have you tried: apt-cache search ndiswrapper ?
[10:07] <The_Joe_> MasterShrek: I got it from packages.ubuntu, along with the GUI
[10:07] <_steiner_> andy58: It will support Update.
[10:08] <Faltzer> I recently installed Ubuntu, and after I upgraded using the update manager, Firefox corrupted.
[10:08] <Faltzer> I tried Epiphany, but that won't open.
[10:08] <andy58> ahh, so when it's released, will my updater inform me?
[10:08] <crispy-afk> Hello, ive got some sound problems! More info on it in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3532797#post3532797
[10:08] <crispy-afk> Any ideas?
[10:08] <_steiner_> check www.ubuntu.com it says 4 days..
[10:09] <_steiner_> and yes you should get notified by the update manager. I think youll get an option to install or not..
[10:09] <lamego> hum, will we get a notification ? will it change the repositories by itself ?
[10:10] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, rm -r ~/.mozilla
[10:10] <MasterShrek> then try for firefox
[10:10] <_steiner_> i guess otherwise its strange to have an update option.
[10:10] <zoidberg_> hey guys....where and how can you download more visualizations for Rhythmbox?
[10:10] <andy58> I am REALLY new to Ubuntu, and from looking at what 7.1 offers, it doesnt seem to have much that a nooby will appreciate
[10:11] <Faltzer> After I run that command I try what for firefox?
[10:11] <The_Joe_> Gah build-essential is also a tar.gz
[10:11] <lamego> _steiner_, usually doing upgrade requires manually changing the sources.list
[10:11] <kbrooks> andy58, 7.10. and it has much!
[10:11] <lamego> The_bob, build-essential is a package from the repositories !
[10:11] <lamego> ops, it was The_Joe_
[10:11] <MasterShrek> andy58, better hardware support, compiz-fusion by default
[10:11] <kbrooks> andy58, please elaborate
[10:11] <IndyGunFreak> The_Joe_: its int he repos, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[10:11] <MasterShrek> and yes its 7.10 (2007 October)
[10:11] <MasterShrek> IndyGunFreak, hes not online
[10:11] <MasterShrek> on that machine
[10:11] <andy58> Well I'm new to Ubuntu as I said.. I used to be a MS Vista man..
[10:12] <OiPenguin> I've installed 7.10 rc server edition. At first reboot after install, my machine has been stuck at (/etc/rc.local) for 10-15 minutes. Is this right? If not, what do I do?
[10:12] <andy58> I don't know what Nautilus etc are..
[10:12] <MasterShrek> pew
[10:12] <IndyGunFreak> MasterShrek: eww.. that could bve all sorts of fun
[10:12] <The_Joe_> IndyGunFreak: I _can't_ my Ubuntu isn't online
[10:12] <The_Joe_> I'm using Windows now
[10:12] <kbrooks> andy58, okay...
[10:12] <act1v8> Hello!
[10:12] <IndyGunFreak> The_Joe_: what are you trying to compile?
[10:12] <IndyGunFreak> !hi
[10:12] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:12] <MasterShrek> andy58, nautilus for ubuntu = explorer for windows
[10:12] <DevideZero> i can install yast on ubuntu ?
[10:12] <The_Joe_> IndyGunFreak: ndiswrapper
[10:12] <andy58> So from reading the list of updates.. A lot of it seems to be things I don't understand yet.. Except fast user switching!
[10:12] <act1v8> Where can I get Gusty RC? I can't wait till thursday :)
[10:12] <IndyGunFreak> The_Joe_: i'm pretty sure thats on the CD.
[10:12] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, what did you say I do afterwards after running the remove firefox command?
[10:12] <The_Joe_> So I can get it online
[10:12] <andy58> ahh thanks MasterShrek
[10:13] <MasterShrek> DevideZero, probably not, why would you? use aptitude
[10:13] <The_Joe_> IndyGunFreak: Well yes but it "didn't work"
[10:13] <edubuntu> Hola all!!!
[10:13] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, try to run firefox again, it was probably just user settings
[10:13] <kbrooks> andy58, you'll understand with time.
[10:13] <IndyGunFreak> The_Joe_: hmm.
[10:13] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, and it was .mozilla  in your home directory
[10:13] <_steiner_> maby this could shed some lights on the update question: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades
[10:13] <andy58> kbrooks, I know :)
[10:13] <zoidberg_> hey guys....where and how can you download more visualizations for Rhythmbox?
[10:13] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, no.
[10:13] <Faltzer> Here is the error:
[10:14] <IndyGunFreak> The_Joe_: is ther eany way you can run an ethernet cable to the pc in question?
[10:14] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, if its long, pastebin it
[10:14] <MasterShrek> !paste
[10:14] <The_Joe_> IndyGunFreak: So I got it from packages.ubuntu
[10:14] <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)
[10:14] <The_Joe_> IndyGunFreak: No, because of the way my internet works
[10:14] <_steiner_> I do not know if you have to change the reps, but my hope and guess is that its taken care by the update.
[10:14] <IndyGunFreak> The_Joe_: ok.
[10:14] <andy58> Is Flash linux compatible?
[10:14] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, "Failed to execute child process "firefox" (no such file or directory)"
[10:14] <MasterShrek> andy58, yes
[10:14] <Lr5> !ipv6
[10:14] <IndyGunFreak> andy58: yes
[10:14] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[10:14] <IndyGunFreak> !flash
[10:14] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, at least that's what it says.
[10:14] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[10:14] <andy58> cool........
[10:14] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, type: locate firefox
[10:14] <MasterShrek> or whereis firefox
[10:14] <The_Joe_> Ahhh ./configure worked with build-essential!
[10:15] <harry_> !Gnash
[10:15] <ubotu> An open source flash replacement.  It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/
[10:15] <The_Joe_> So apparently build-essential is installed
[10:15] <IndyGunFreak> The_Joe_: well thats good.
[10:15] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, it's long..
[10:15] <peacepipejv> is it ok to ask what the iLife alternative is?
[10:15] <mahone> I'd have a question regarding not stricly Ubuntu, but IP filtering in general...May I ask it?
[10:15] <The_Joe_> Aand it doesn't work when I use it in ndiswrapper
[10:15] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, type this instead: whereis firefox
[10:15] <IndyGunFreak> The_Joe_: well, not really, build-essential installs some commonly needed dependencies when you compile software
[10:15] <andy58> Thanks guys, catch you later
[10:15] <darkchr0n0s> somebody gonna get hurt real bad !!
[10:16] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, "/etc/firefox /usr/lib/firefox /usr/share/firefox /usr/share/man/man1/firefox.1.gz
[10:16] <Faltzer> "
[10:16] <The_Joe_> IndyGunFreak: I'm getting some kind of error, it simply says, make: *** [all]  Error 2 when I use sudo make on ndiswrapper
[10:16] <kbrooks> mahone, ask it
[10:16] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, you are going to have to reinstall firefox
[10:16] <peacepipejv> simple yes or no
[10:16] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, how exactly? I can't find it in the Add/Remove programs.
[10:16] <mahone> I'm building a Virtual Appliance for VMware, using Ubuntu
[10:17] <kbrooks> mahone, there is also #iptables if we dont help. but ask us first
[10:17] <mahone> For the sole purpose of P2P
[10:17] <The_Joe_> I'm not sure what it means
[10:17] <kbrooks> mahone, go on.
[10:17] <mahone> I installed an configured Azureus and KMLDonkey
[10:17] <mahone> Now it comes the part of installing some IP filtering program
[10:17] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, I even tried Epiphany and it doesn't open, and it returns no error.
[10:17] <mahone> I found on the net moblock and ipfilter
[10:17] <kbrooks> The_Joe_, exactly. pastebin all the output of make, including the command
[10:17] <MasterShrek> felipe, sudo apt-get remove firefox    then    sudo apt-get install firefox
[10:17] <mahone> Sorry, iplist
[10:18] <kbrooks> mahone, iptables is already included in all linux distributions.
[10:18] <mahone> In your opinion, which is the best?
[10:18] <The_Joe_> kbrooks: Will take me a while, the PC I have Ubuntu on is offline
[10:18] <MasterShrek> moblock is probably better mahone
[10:18] <kbrooks> The_bob, and including the prompt after the command finishes
[10:18] <kbrooks> The_Joe_, ^
[10:18] <kbrooks> The_bob, sry
[10:19] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, I think this might be a problem: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg received a segmentation fault.
[10:19] <Dialntone> everytime i try to connect over smb - on windows, to linux it prompts for a password
[10:19] <kbrooks> MasterShrek, just a second.
[10:19] <Dialntone> hwo to i add names or accounts so i can connect to this linux on windows,
[10:19] <kbrooks> mahone, ** iptables is already included in all linux distributions.**
[10:19] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, thats not good, your system has some major problems
[10:19] <Pie-rate> Nautilus is using a solid 50% CPU (1 core). Why?
[10:19] <Pie-rate> I tried restarting X
[10:19] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, oh no. What's going on now?
[10:20] <mahone> kbrooks, I know, but these tools let you download and update periodicly lists of IPs to block
[10:20] <_steiner_> Dialntone: what do you mean, how do you want to connect? ssh or windows networking?
[10:20] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, im not sure, but your system has issues if u dpkg is seg-faulting
[10:20] <kbrooks> mahone, oh k
[10:20] <sleejay> =ie: nautilus has a mean memory leak
[10:20] <mahone> Automaticly, from websites that mantain them
[10:20] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, so what would I do to reformat?
[10:20] <Dialntone> _steiner_,  i setup folder sharing
[10:20] <kbrooks> mahone, everything else that creates a firewall is just a frontend to that. so i suggest you take the time to learn iptables as well.
[10:20] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, probably your best bet
[10:20] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, so what do I do to reformat>?
[10:20] <Dialntone> but when i try connecting over windows it askes for a password, and i enter in my password -- but it won't let me in
[10:20] <mahone> kbrooks, OK
[10:21] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, same thing you did to install
[10:21] <_steiner_> Dialntone: sudo apt-get install samba
[10:21] <Ashfire908> what would i use to compare two folders
[10:21] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, Insert the CD? Or do I select Ubuntu Recovery mode in the OS Select?
[10:21] <Dialntone> its' already installed
[10:21] <brodmann> what's the filename for all the network interface card information.
[10:21] <ckin2001> Dialntone, did you use smbpasswd to add a user ?
[10:21] <kbrooks> Faltzer, just insert the cd and reboot
[10:21] <The_Joe_> Oh great now my USB disk stopped mounting -.-
[10:21] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, you could try recovery mode, but i dont know what it would really do for you, i would just put hte cd in and greshly install
[10:22] <_steiner_> oki try smbpasswd then (pick a unix account and create an samba password for that account)
[10:22] <The_Joe_> Ah
[10:22] <kbrooks> MasterAslan, recovery mode will give the same problem.
[10:22] <_steiner_> or if you want to set it up withourt using authentication, you could set the security to share
[10:22] <Dialntone> failed to change password for edward
[10:22] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, does this mean I have to do the partition parts again? =-=;
[10:22] <Pie-rate> lsof|grep nautilus: http://pastebin.ca/736768
[10:22] <brodmann> what's the filename for all the network interface card information.
[10:23] <Dialntone> is there a gui for this ?
[10:23] <The_Joe_> kbrooks: Ok finally pasting the output
[10:23] <The_Joe_> kbrooks: http://pastebin.ca/736771
[10:23] <ckin2001> Dialntone, SWAT is the web interface, I don't use it, can't help you with it
[10:23] <Ashfire908> is there some thing i could use that comes with the system that can compare folder
[10:24] <crispy-afk> Any help on my question? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3532797#post3532797
[10:24] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, would it help for me to say that I had Firefox open at the time of updating?
[10:24] <kbrooks> The_Joe_, dont see any problem
[10:24] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, Because I'm not sure if that was the problem, or a problem with dpkg.
[10:24] <_steiner_> Dialntone: yes gui: webmin
[10:24] <The_Joe_> kbrooks: Well nothings... working
[10:25] <kbrooks> Faltzer, dont worry about it
[10:25] <porkpie> guy's how can I tell what version of dapper I am runing ...  need to know if it's 32bit
[10:25] <_steiner_> you can download an debian/ubuntu package at http://www.webmin.com
[10:25] <peertje888> my kernel waits 15 seconds before he's got through that I haven't plugged in a network cable, how can I shorten that?
[10:25] <darkchr0n0s> i went to windows channel and asked, how do i compile windows from source ;)
[10:25] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, no thats not a problem
[10:25] <The_Joe_> kbrooks: I'm getting the program isn't installed when I try installing the driver
[10:25] <MasterShrek> Faltzer, and the partitioning thing shouldnt be too hard either
[10:25] <Lr5> Finally fixed the internet problem
[10:26] <Lr5> Apparently Firestarter was not functioning properly, and caused something strange
[10:26] <Faltzer> Faltzer, Well, it took me a long time go figure this out...
[10:26] <_steiner_> Dialntone: webmin is also nice for many other servers and system configurations.
[10:26] <Lr5> and didn't let anything go to internet
[10:26] <kbrooks> _steiner_, btww webmin isnt supported here
[10:26] <brodmann> anyone know the name of the file to see all of your NICs settings?
[10:26] <kbrooks> well, er
[10:26] <Faltzer> MasterShrek, Well, it took me a long time go figure this out...
[10:26] <Pie-rate> what would make nautilus flip out and start using 100% of a cpu core?
[10:26] <kbrooks> webmin was removed from a later ubuntu version because it is unmaintained
[10:26] <peertje888> how come it takes 5 seconds to check if image is ramfs?
[10:26] <ckin2001> brodmann, /etc/network/interfaces
[10:26] <_steiner_> i know but Dialntone asked if there was an gui for configuring samba, and i told him there is.
[10:27] <The_Joe_> Ndiswrapper is simply not installing
[10:27] <Dialntone> i installed swat but its' not in my system
[10:27] <MasterShrek> back in a few....
[10:27] <mwax> does ubuntu have problems detecting usb 2.0
[10:27] <adamrn83> hi   anyone know a program that converts m4a files to mp3 etc
[10:27] <Faltzer> kbrooks and strangely sometimes on Ubuntu install window for partitioning, it sometimes chooses to show the little bar for partitioning, and sometimes it doesn't show the bar at all.
[10:27] <mwax> are there drivers i need?
[10:27] <_steiner_> you need to use your browser to access swat
[10:28] <kbrooks> Faltzer, cant help
[10:28] <_steiner_> try: http://127.0.0.1:901
[10:28] <Faltzer> kbrooks, okay sorry. I'll just reformat then.
[10:28] <brodmann> thanks
[10:28] <kbrooks> mwax, no, linux (the base of ubuntu) has drivers for usb 2.0, so it depends on the hardware
[10:28] <adamrn83> m4a to mp3 conerting
[10:28] <kditty> would this be the proper chann to ask a question about php, or is there a better place to get help?

[10:30] <_steiner_> im nit sure never used it myself
[10:30] <mwax> is there any way i can change it to 2.0?
[10:30] <kbrooks> mwax, it *does*, but it DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU ARE PLUGGING IN
[10:30] <swhalen> Can someone help me use dar?
[10:30] <kbrooks> *sigh*'
[10:30] <_steiner_> i mean is swat started?

[10:31] <hhp2k> kbrosnan: No, I'm on digg. It's different than what it was earlier today, it's definitely changed because of something in my system.

[10:40] <mehevi> stephans have you thought of instead of using an iPod with linux, you put linux on the iPod?
[10:40] <Pici> RAdams: The server kernel can take advantage of that as well.  If you have a PAE processor, which you probably do.

[10:51] <Dialntone> lol now how do i insert a password for the username edward ?
[10:51] <_steiner_> smbpasswd -a edward
[10:52] <_steiner_> if it is on the linux side in windows you need to go to accounts in the CP.
[10:52] <andrew_> how can i reinstall nvidia drivers from the command
[10:53] <andrew_> how can i reinstall nvidia drivers from the command

[10:53] <andrew_> need to reinstall dirvers for nvidia
[10:53] <andrew_> need to get back into gui
[10:53] <ikonia> andrew_: why do you need to re-install ?
[10:54] <andrew_> gui displays white screen.
[10:54] <ikonia> andrew_: what card to you have and what drivers are you using ?
[10:54] <andrew_> login screen is fine.. upon entereing i get blank white screen

[10:54] <sabenko> hey
[10:54] <Dialntone> _steiner_, Failed to modify password entry for user test
[10:54] <andrew_> uninstalled drivers because nvidia option was only displaying in 800x600
[10:54] <zerocool> have you tried installing with envy?
[10:54] <Dialntone> i was soo close :(
[10:54] <andrew_> uninstalled drivers so that i could restart and hopefully regain higher res
[10:54] <ikonia> andrew_: which drivers
[10:55] <andrew_> nvidia drivers
[10:55] <ikonia> zerocool: don't advise envy
[10:55] <zerocool> why not?
[10:55] <ikonia> andrew_: which ones, the ones ubuntu package or nvidia.com
[10:55] <_steiner_> Dialntone: you got it to work?
[10:55] <dgjones> !envy | zerocool
[10:55] <ubotu> zerocool: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[10:55] <ikonia> zerocool: because it has the potential to bork your system, more so for users who don't understand what it does
[10:55] <andrew_> I had the original ones which i assume were installed in the installation
[10:55] <Dialntone> no
[10:55] <ikonia> !nvidia >andrew_
[10:55] <andrew_> But then i also did a sudo apt-get install something or other
[10:56] <ikonia> andrew_: read that link, and follow the configure options through
[10:56] <andrew_> that someone told me to do to get my card working .
[10:56] <andrew_> someone from this channel
[10:56] <chuck> cd #xorg
[10:56] <ikonia> andrew_: you'll find that 9 times out of 10 it will work and configure correctly
[10:56] <zerocool> oh
[10:56] <andrew_> i am in command prompt how do i browse webpages form command prompt?
[10:56] <Dialntone>  yaya!!! i got it
[10:56] <barak> what is the difference between emerald and beryl?
[10:56] <Dialntone> it was smbpasswd - e to enable the user!
[10:56] <ikonia> andrew_ ahhh I see
[10:56] <_steiner_> aha sorry
[10:56] <ephracis> andrew_ use links2 or elinks
[10:56] <ikonia> andrew_: ok - ar eyou ready to type ?
[10:56] <Dialntone> i am a genius
[10:56] <_steiner_> he he
[10:57] <andrew_> can i install sudo atp elinks?
[10:57] <ikonia> andrew_: just type what I tell you - you ready ?
[10:57] <andrew_> how can i install binary if im stuck
[10:57] <peacepipejv> help with thunderbird
[10:57] <andrew_> ok
[10:57] <ikonia> andrew_: lsmod | grep nvidia
[10:57] <zerocool> does anyone know if there are any known issues with via sound cards and mic support in linux?
[10:57] <Dialntone> :D  gotta burn windows vista now lol
[10:57] <andrew_> must i login on diferent session?
[10:57] <ikonia> andrew_: do you see an nvidia module
[10:57] <Dialntone> what a waste
[10:57] <ikonia> andrew_: ahh yes
[10:57] <peertje888> need a light?
[10:58] <andrew_> after pressing ctrl alt f4 and then typing that
[10:58] <peacepipejv> there may be a thread on a via in Ubuntu forums in the beginner section
[10:58] <andrew_> it doesnt do anything just pops back to the command prompt below
[10:58] <andrew_> no output from grep
[10:58] <peacepipejv> if i remember correctly
[10:58] <peertje888> gparted...for all your formatting problems...new: bootalbe CD
[10:59] <andrew_> ikonia: no luck
[10:59] <ikonia> andrew_: ok - so you need to "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx"
[10:59] <soundray> peertje888: not new
[10:59] <andrew_> ok
[10:59] <andrew_> it seems to be installing something
[11:00] <ikonia> andrew_: thats a good start
[11:00] <andrew_> says reading database
[11:00] <andrew_> setting up nvidia something something glx
[11:00] <andrew_> says unpacking
[11:01] <andrew_> so do you think maby linux gui gnome is still looking for my nvidia drivers even though i uninstalled them
[11:01] <ikonia> andrew_: no
[11:01] <Dmitry_> how would i set a command to be ran at startup?
[11:01] <andrew_> oh..
[11:01] <ikonia> andrew_: gnome doesn't care about nvidia
[11:01] <andrew_> ikonia: any idea why the white screen?
[11:01] <soundray> Dmitry_: call it from /etc/rc.local
[11:01] <Dmitry_> thanks, sun
[11:01] <Dmitry_> soundray, *
[11:02] <Dmitry_> soundray* :P
[11:02] <ikonia> andrew_:no idea without working it through
[11:02] <ubersoldat> !x
[11:02] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:02] <andrew_> the other session shows....
[11:02] <andrew_> nvidia was installing .. unpacking
[11:02] <andrew_> then i get ...
[11:02] <andrew_> 3 dots
[11:02] <Jowi> is anyone using "contacts" from http://pimlico-project.org/contacts.html (older version also in the universe repo)? All contacts dissappeard mysteriously and I wonder where all the entries are stored.
[11:02] <andrew_> and then it goes back to prompt
[11:02] <andrew_> ikonia: did it install?
[11:02] <ikonia> andrew_ yes
[11:03] <ikonia> andrew_: now reboot and come back to me
[11:03] <andrew_> ikonia: what now?
[11:03] <andrew_> ok
[11:03] <andrew_> ;-)
[11:03] <peacepipejv> trying to setup thunderbird, how do I find name of incoming server
[11:04] <ubersoldat> peacepipejv: you should already know it... but is standard to use mail.mydomain.com
[11:04] <pvl1> Ubuntu wont mount my ipod anymore
[11:04] <axjv> Does anyone know how to change the icon of a launcher to an ico or png file?
[11:04] <Ciorapel> Hello. I deleted by mistake all contend of my windows partition. How do I recover the files on that partition in Ubuntu ? (im a beginner)
[11:04] <endo> can someone please point me to where Deludge is on my hard drive so I can point opera to open my torrents with it?
[11:04] <ubersoldat> axjv: right click on the icon -> properties and click on the icon
[11:05] <ubersoldat> endo: maybe in /usr/bin
[11:05] <ubersoldat> endo: find /usr -iname deludge*
[11:05] <Faltzer> *sigh*
[11:05] <Scunizi> peacepipejv, pop."company name".com/net etc. is also used alot
[11:05] <andrew_> still stuck in shell... the login screen doesnt load now
[11:05] <andrew_> er.. shell or command or whatever its called
[11:05] <ikonia> andrew_: of course you are
[11:05] <Faltzer> My system receives this error:
[11:06] <ikonia> andrew_: its not configured yet
[11:06] <andrew_> ikonia: messages above
[11:06] <Sergo> hello
[11:06] <soundray> Ciorapel: how did you delete those files?
[11:06] <frenky> hi *
[11:06] <ikonia> andrew_: you'll need to make notes for this next section.
[11:06] <sd32> how do you manually update firefox in ubuntu?
[11:06] <ikonia> sd32: you don't
[11:06] <Ciorapel> In windows ... I got that "cleanup" thing goin on .. and deleted all my content
[11:06] <andrew_> ikonia: I got the blue and red screen of error
[11:06] <frenky> where does ubuntu write core files?
[11:06] <andrew_> on startup
[11:06] <ikonia> sd32: ubuntu will offer you updates when you can them
[11:07] <Sergo> i can't play the movie on www.kab.tv
[11:07] <ikonia> andrew_: as I've just said, its because its not configured
[11:07] <Faltzer> galeon %U
[11:07] <Sergo> i can't find the required codec..
[11:07] <sd32> ikonia, ok  thanks
[11:07] <Viking667> Hi all..... errr.... wow..... that's a BUCKET LOAD of nicks...
[11:07] <Faltzer> "Segmentation fault (core dumped)"
[11:07] <Ciorapel> So can you help me ?
[11:07] <ubersoldat> ikonia: sd32 is right, but you could download it and install it , but this will break your repositories for firefox
[11:07] <andrew_> ikonia: ok im going to try configure xserver-xorg
[11:07] <Viking667> Anyhow, I'll make my question quick. How easy is it to dist-upgrade ubuntu from Feisty to the next release?
[11:07] <ikonia> andrew_ thats right, make sure you select the "nvidia" driver, not "nv"
[11:07] <endo> ubersoldat: is /usr/bin usually where my programs are kept?
[11:08] <andrew_> ikonia: on the xserver config i am now greeted with a new option for gfx cards.
[11:08] <andrew_> calld 'nvidia'
[11:08] <ikonia> andrew_: of course
[11:08] <frenky> Faltzer: for example - but where is the core dumped to?
[11:08] <ubersoldat> Viking667: usually you get a button for this on the update manager
[11:08] <ikonia> andrew_: and you'll find that now works
[11:08] <Dialntone> i can't wait to start work at the end of the year
[11:08] <Ciorapel> soundray: can u help me ?
[11:08] <sd32> ubersoldat, ok thnaks
[11:08] <andrew_> ikonia i now have option to use nv or nvidia
[11:08] <andrew_> ikonia: which one?
[11:08] <ubersoldat> endo: /usr/bin, /usr/sbin
[11:08] <ikonia> andrew_: nvidia
[11:08] <andrew_> ok
[11:08] <Dialntone> so i can buy me a kick ass motherboard and cpu combo from fry's
[11:08] <soundray> Ciorapel: no. Incidentally, why are you asking this in #ubuntu rather than ##windows ?
[11:08] <tsukasa_> anyone know of a good super light-weight http server?
[11:08] <endo> ubersoldat: kinda like the equivilant of program files if you will?
[11:08] <tsukasa_> as lightweight as possible
[11:09] <Faltzer> I'm not sure
[11:09] <Ciorapel> Cos' Ubuntu is the only os that is working now
[11:09] <ubersoldat> endo: yes
[11:09] <ikonia> tsukasa_: apache will do for most needs, but there are lighter options for specific needs
[11:09] <endo> awesome, thanks
[11:09] <Viking667> ubersoldat: hm. Haven't seen that yet
[11:09] <Faltzer> frenky: I'm not sure where it's dumped to.
[11:09] <endo> ubersoldat: that command is still running
[11:09] <sd32> its just been awhile since 2.0.0.7 came out
[11:09] <Ciorapel> And I can't write anything on other partition becouse will distroy all my data
[11:09] <Hilikus_> im following the modem installation instructions but im stuck, i ran scanModem and i know i have a Motorola modem but i dont know what else to do
[11:09] <soundray> Ciorapel: just reformat your Windows partition with ext3 and use it for data.
[11:09] <endo> didn't give me any results, but i'll look in the dir
[11:09] <ikonia> sd32: firefox will likley not be updated
[11:09] <ubersoldat> Viking667: should be there
[11:09] <Ciorapel> soundray:  I had some files on that partition that I want to recover .. not the OS
[11:09] <soundray> Ciorapel: or reinstall Windows.
[11:09] <Hilikus_> i read everything in /Modem but its all generic, nothings specific to my case
[11:09] <Viking667> Then I'll take a look again. Thank you.
[11:09] <sd32> ikonia,why?
[11:09] <Cpudan80> Hello all
[11:09] <ubersoldat> Viking667: anyhow, you could try using apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:10] <Cpudan80> I am trying to dual boot XP and ubuntu
[11:10] <peacepipejv> uber: so, my email address as mydomain.com?
[11:10] <Dialntone> ____ROOM___  >> is there a ide to usb thing out on the market ?
[11:10] <ikonia> sd32: because more things are linked/dependant on firefox
[11:10] <soundray> sd32: the update to 2.0.0.7 only affects the Windows version of FF
[11:10] <ubersoldat> peacepipejv: yeap
[11:10] <axjv> ubersoldat: Thanks.
[11:10] <Cpudan80> I am running the install -- it should setup the grub dual boot stuff automatically, right?
[11:10] <ikonia> sd32: so without a good reason to update, its a lot of effort
[11:10] <Flannel> Cpudan80: yes
[11:10] <jdong> Cpudan80: ineed it will
[11:10] <dgjones> Cpudan80, yes
[11:10] <peacepipejv> ok, i shoulda known
[11:10] <Cpudan80> it never really asked about how to set it u
[11:10] <Cpudan80> up*
[11:10] <Cpudan80> OK good
[11:10] <Cpudan80> I am coming over from SuSE
[11:10] <tsukasa_> ikonia, you dont think apache creates too much overhead?
[11:10] <Viking667> ubersoldat: yes, I realised that, but the person I'm doing it for is not computer-literate - she doesn't like them much.
[11:10] <Cpudan80> 10.3 failed horribly at the dual boot stage
[11:10] <silent> what options do I have in regards to a widget engine... similar to the launch bar found in os x?
[11:10] <ikonia> tsukasa_: no
[11:10] <ikonia> tsukasa_: very light weight
[11:10] <junkeR> opensuse 10.3 OR kubuntu 7.10?
[11:10] <Cpudan80> Here's to hoping that Fiesty Fawn will do better!
[11:10] <jdong> Cpudan80: Ubuntu tends to take a "Don't ask the user what's obviously desired" approach
[11:11] <ikonia> junkeR: thats personal opinion, you decide
[11:11] <ubersoldat> peacepipejv: if not, use a port scanner to scan all ports 25 on your domain and see wich one is open
[11:11] <Chinaski1> hello, anyone know how to duplicate screen using the vga port?
[11:11] <sd32> soundray, then why is there a 2.0.0.7 update on the firerfox website
[11:11] <Faltzer> frenky: I'm not sure where my core is dumped to.
[11:11] <Cpudan80> jdong: he he
[11:11] <Faltzer> frenky: where can I find this?
[11:11] <andrew_> ikonia: i typed /etc/init.d/gdm start
[11:11] <ikonia> sd32: because firefox just deals with a browser - no OS compatability
[11:11] <Cpudan80> SuSE just wouldn't put grub on sda1
[11:11] <Cpudan80> No idea why
[11:11] <Ciorapel> soundray: On that partition I had 40 GB of data and the windows ... and windows deleted all the content except the used files. So I had only 400-500 mb occupied space. Now I have the Ubuntu partition untouched (windows didn't deleted anything on this partitions). And I have to recover the 30-40 Gb of data .. not the actually OS (windows)
[11:11] <ubersoldat> sd32: there's a process for Ubuntu to have update of software on the repos
[11:11] <andrew_> ikonia: it said [ok] 
[11:11] <Pici> sd32: The exploit that .7 fixes is for a Windows Quicktime exploit.
[11:11] <ikonia> andrew_ just easier to reboot
[11:11] <Cpudan80> But - I'll probably have some newb questions in a bit :-)
[11:11] <soundray> sd32: because they keep the version numbers in sync, even if the software hasn't changed.
[11:11] <andrew_> ok
[11:11] <sd32> oohh, ok
[11:12] <andrew_> cheers ;-)
[11:12] <Cpudan80> not new to *nix, just new to ubuntu and its way of doing things
[11:12] <peacepipejv> uber: i rcv "ener valid hostnmae". Can you give me an example, say, of hotmail
[11:12] <jdong> sd32: 2.0.0.7 fixes http://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/2007/mfsa2007-28.html
[11:12] <peacepipejv> oops, enter
[11:12] <frenky> Faltzer: figured it..
[11:12] <Faltzer> frenky: Hm??
[11:12] <Cpudan80> One thing I do want though, is there a way you can enable su in ubuntu?
[11:12] <ubersoldat> peacepipejv: neither hotmail, yahoo or gmail allows you to use email clients
[11:12] <frenky> Faltzer: set "ulimit -c unlimited"
[11:12] <Cpudan80> I'd rather not use sudo every time
[11:13] <peacepipejv> sucks
[11:13] <jdong> Cpudan80: you can either do "sudo su"
[11:13] <ikonia> Cpudan80 yes, but if you don't know how to do so, you shouldn't
[11:13] <jdong> Cpudan80: equivalent to "sudo -s"
[11:13] <ikonia> jdong: don't recommend that
[11:13] <frenky> and in the current directory core file will be created.
[11:13] <soundray> Ciorapel: read this carefully: you use WINDOWS to wreck files in your WINDOWS partition, and now WINDOWS doesn't boot. There is NO POINT asking this in a ubuntu channel.
[11:13] <sd32> ok thanks everybody!!
[11:13] <endo> anyone know where I can find Deluge on my hard drive?
[11:13] <jdong> Cpudan80: it is gneerally less preferred to using sudo because of the benefits that sudo brings
[11:13] <endo> n/m found it
[11:13] <Cpudan80> Will this installer ask me to set the root passwd somewhere along the way?
[11:13] <Faltzer> frenky: doesn't appear
[11:13] <ikonia> Cpudan80: no
[11:14] <Flannel> Cpudan80: no.  Ubuntu doesn't use the root password, using sudo instead.
[11:14] <Cpudan80> no..?
[11:14] <ikonia> Cpudan80: no
[11:14] <specialbuddy> #kubuntu
[11:14] <Pici> !sudo | Cpudan80
[11:14] <Ciorapel> soundray: the only thing am I asking for is : Is there a Data Recovery software for Ubuntu that I can use to recover data from a NTFS partition ?
[11:14] <ubotu> Cpudan80: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:14] <Cpudan80> So I just use my password to run as root?
[11:14] <dgjones> !root | Cpudan80
[11:14] <ubotu> Cpudan80: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[11:14] <ikonia> Cpudan80: correct
[11:14] <fujin_> indeed; you can even disable the password prompt
[11:14] <jdong> Cpudan80: sudo prompts you for your password to gain root priviledges
[11:14] <silent> where is the recycling bin in root? (/....)
[11:14] <frenky> Faltzer: --> private
[11:14] <Scunizi> Cpudan80, when you need to do something as root preface the command with sudo and use your normal password.
[11:14] <Chinaski1> hello, anyone know how to duplicate screen using the vga port?
[11:14] <Faltzer> ??
[11:15] <Viking667> user password, that is.
[11:15] <jdong> fujin_: that's usually a terrible idea though
[11:15] <Cpudan80> Scunizi: ok gotcha
[11:15] <Faltzer> frenky: huh?
[11:15] <Sephiroth> I'm trying to unmount an NTFS partition through GParted, but whenever I do, it auto-remounts itself. What would I need to do to disable this automounting?
[11:15] <Cpudan80> suse did the root stuff a little different
[11:15] <fujin_> Thanks for your input.
[11:15] <andrew_> ikonia: it has installd the drivers but...
[11:15] <ikonia> Cpudan80: this isn't suse
[11:15] <andrew_> ikonia: still blue screen..
[11:15] <Cpudan80> What happens if I've got a user who shouldnt be able to sudo ?
[11:15] <frenky> Faltzer: I've sent you a private message.
[11:15] <ikonia> andrew_: paste the xorg log in a pastebin
[11:15] <andrew_> ikonia: on start looking at the output it says i have the wrong driver for the module
[11:15] <Cpudan80> ie. a stupid user who will screw up stuff
[11:15] <fujin_> Cpudan80: make them not in the 'admin' group. man sudo, vi /etc/sudoers
[11:15] <tussey> what's generally the most used program for DVD ripping in linux?
[11:15] <soundray> !dualhead > Chinaski1, please read ubotu's private message
[11:15] <ikonia> Cpudan80: you add him to the admin group
[11:15] <andrew_> how can i get to pastebin from command?
[11:15] <Scunizi> Cpudan80, you can change their permissions to restrict it.
[11:15] <ikonia> Cpudan80: sounds like your not that different from the "user"
[11:15] <Cpudan80> alrighty
[11:16] <ikonia> andrew_: lynx ?
[11:16] <Pici> andrew_: install pastebinit and read its manpage
[11:16] <ikonia> Pici: cool trick
[11:16] <Ciorapel> Is there a Data Recovery software for Ubuntu that I can use to recover data from a NTFS partition ?
[11:16] <tussey> is Thoggen a decent DVD ripper?
[11:16] <Odd-rationale> Are shell scripts written in Python?
[11:16] <ikonia> Ciorapel no
[11:16] <Ciorapel> Ok thanx !
[11:16] <soundray> tussey: you're hoping to find statisticians here?
[11:16] <ikonia> Odd-rationale no
[11:16] <soundray> tussey: use k9copy
[11:16] <silas428> What's a compatible bluetooth for usb on linux and bsd?
[11:16] <Faltzer> frenky: I haven't recieved it.
[11:16] <jodde> Hi guys.
[11:16] <Odd-rationale> tussey: yes. only it rips to .ogg
[11:16] <andrew_> ikonia: lynx installing
[11:16] <jodde> I have a problem.
[11:16] <tussey> thanks
[11:16] <ikonia> andrew_: did you see pici's advice,
[11:16] <jdong> Odd-rationale: by strict definition, shellscripts are written in POSIX bourne shell scripting syntax interpreted by /bin/sh or /bin/bash
[11:17] <andrew_> ikonia: it said i had the wrong driver for this module
[11:17] <jodde> A shell located a certain file in /usr/include/gtk-2.0, but I can't find it.
[11:17] <pulseezar> where can i find an ubuntu version of adobe flash player for my firefox?
[11:17] <ikonia> andrew_: doesn't sound good
[11:17] <jdong> Odd-rationale: however, one can generally use any language with an interpretor to write "shell scripts" so the definition can get hazy
[11:17] <ikonia> pulseezar in the ubuntu repo's
[11:17] <Sephiroth> I'm trying to unmount an NTFS partition through GParted, but whenever I do, it auto-remounts itself. What would I need to do to disable this automounting?
[11:17] <ikonia> !flash >pulseezar
[11:17] <frenky> Faltzer: ok.. You have to check if your ulimit is set ok. Type ulimit -a and see if you have unlimited to "core file size"
[11:17] <dgjones> !flash | pulseezar
[11:17] <ubotu> pulseezar: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[11:17] <soundray> jdong: a script executed by tcsh is not a shell script, then?
[11:17] <andrew_> ikonia: it says mine driver is version 17.... something or other... and this module is version 19..... something or other .. please consult the nvidia txt files etc.
[11:17] <jodde> How do I find that directory?
[11:17] <Odd-rationale> Thx, jdong
[11:17] <ikonia> soundray yes tcsh is not python
[11:18] <pulseezar> lovely thanks
[11:18] <ubersoldat> tcsh sucks!
[11:18] <jdong> soundray: well I guess it's still interpreted by a shell :)
[11:18] <ikonia> soundray tcsh is cshell
[11:18] <andrew_> how can i copy the output of xorg error ?
[11:18] <pulseezar> i'm getting somewhere with ubuntu now...
[11:18] <frenky> Faltzer: and then when you have this executed from the same shell, run the program that creates core dump.
[11:18] <ikonia> andrew_ open the file in an editor like nano/vim etc
[11:18] <soundray> Sephiroth: go via System-Preferences-Removable Drives
[11:18] <ubersoldat> at least on HPUX
[11:18] <Faltzer> frenky: how do I create a core dump, sorry for being stupid
[11:18] <soundray> ikonia: I didn't say python
[11:18] <ikonia> ubersoldat: thats a silly comment
[11:18] <fryguy> What is the best way to access files on another linux machine on my lan?  I've got samba shares set up for windows access, but now that my primary machine is also linux I'm wondering if there is a better protocol to use than smb for remote file access on a lan?
[11:18] <ikonia> soundray: apologies, the other guy was talking about python being a shell script
[11:19] <frenky> Faltzer: Why for the love of god would you want to create core dump?
[11:19] <jdong> ikonia: #!/usr/bin/bzr shell ;-)
[11:19] <erUSUL> !nfs | fryguy
[11:19] <ubotu> fryguy: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[11:19] <dgjones> fryguy, nfs
[11:19] <fryguy> is nfs a better choice than smb?  and are there any other alternatives?
[11:19] <tussey> here is a theoretical question: If EVERY hardware device EVER made released specs, would linux be able to develop the most efficient driver system? something that fetched the correct drivers all the time everytime?
[11:19] <erUSUL> frenky: but you can use samba between linux machines too
[11:19] <Flannel> tussey: yes
[11:19] <soundray> fryguy: for casual file sharing, I use sshfs (loving it)
[11:19] <Faltzer> frenky: " Faltzer: and then when you have this executed from the same shell, run the program that creates core dump."
[11:19] <Snuxoll> tussey: yes
[11:19] <ikonia> !offtopic >tussey
[11:19] <Faltzer> I'm only doing what you direct me.
[11:19] <tussey> I've thought about that
[11:19] <frenky> Yes?
[11:19] <Sephiroth> soundray: Thanks.
[11:20] <antec> hi, I have ubuntu 6.06 installed, is there a way to upgrade to 7.04?
[11:20] <fryguy> soundray: I need something a bit more than casual filesharing.  I store my music library of a few hundred gigabytes on a fileserver that I regularly access
[11:20] <Dialntone> same here
[11:20] <ikonia> antec: not really as one is an LTS distro the other is not
[11:20] <andrew_> ikonia
[11:20] <silas428> will all bluetooth usb adapters work on linux and bsd?
[11:20] <tussey> I mean, typically all scanners do the same thing but companies don't share their drivers but if they were open the OSS would be able to develop sort of a pocket knife scanner driver
[11:20] <ikonia> andrew_ yes
[11:20] <ikonia> !offtopic | tussey
[11:20] <ubotu> tussey: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:20] <andrew_> ikonia: reconfigured xorg.conf to reflect change nvidia to nv
[11:20] <frenky> Faltzer: try "man core"
[11:20] <tussey> same thing with printers
[11:20] <ikonia> andrew_: why to nv ?
[11:20] <soundray> antec: yes, you can upgrade to 6.10 and from there to 7.04. But it's better to wait for 7.10 and do a fresh install using that, imo
[11:21] <andrew_> ikonia: it now boots into linux gnome no problem... says it is using the driver
[11:21] <frenky> Faltzer: and if you want to produce core file, "man kill"
[11:21] <andrew_> ;-)
[11:21] <tussey> alright alright, I was just thinking aloud and wanted OSS input. thank you
[11:21] <ikonia> andrew_: nv is not the nvidia driver
[11:21] <andrew_> i will chat to you under new username in gui
[11:21] <andrew_> cheers for now
[11:21] <ikonia> andrew_: ok
[11:21] <Pici> !nickspam > ] tyndareus] 
[11:21] <soundray> tussey: people in #ubuntu-offtopic will be interested, I reckon
[11:22] <tussey> ty
[11:22] <antec> if I install 7.10 will I loose what I have on 6.06?
[11:22] <frenky> Faltzer: e.g. kill -11 $$ :)
[11:22] <ikonia> antec: I advise agaist it because 6.06 is LTS
[11:22] <Dialntone> whats lts?
[11:22] <antec> what does it mean lts?
[11:22] <dgjones> !lts
[11:22] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[11:22] <ikonia> Dialntone: long term support
[11:23] <soundray> antec: yes. You should do a backup first. Or have 7.10 resize your existing partition and use it as /home
[11:23] <Dialntone> can i update my ubuntu too
[11:23] <antec> the problem i have is i can't install skype
[11:23] <soundray> antec: are you on 64bit?
[11:23] <Faltzer> frenky: the kill -11 $$ command made my terminal close.
[11:23] <antec> no, i'm on 32
[11:23] <Faltzer> frenky: was that the point of the command>?
[11:24] <Snuxoll> Faltzer: Yes, it is
[11:25] <neopsyche> ikonia: back in gui
[11:25] <Faltzer> frenky: Then.... now what?
[11:25] <antec> i need libasound2 1.0.12, where can i get it?
[11:25] <neopsyche> ikonia: are you there?
[11:26] <ikonia> neopsyche: yes
[11:26] <neopsyche> hi
[11:26] <neopsyche> ikonia: so im back in gui
[11:26] <neopsyche> screen is running at 1152x768
[11:26] <ikonia> neopsyche: and ?
[11:26] <neopsyche> ikonia: looking somewhat oval on the loading circle and everything is a bit stretched :-)
[11:26] <soundray> Chinaski1: have you read your private messages?
[11:27] <ikonia> neopsyche: configure xorg.conf to have the correct resolution
[11:27] <neopsyche> when i try to change my monitor to 1280x1024 it goes blank
[11:27] <] tyndareus] > what graphical backup software would you recommend on Ubuntu 7.04
[11:27] <ikonia> neopsyche: lower the refresh rate
[11:27] <Faltzer> *sigh*
[11:27] <David-A> Dialntone: do you have "/home" and "/" on different hd partitions? Then you can install a new the os without loosing your personal files.
[11:27] <soundray> !sbackup | ] tyndareus] 
[11:27] <ubotu> ] tyndareus] : sbackup is a tool to create complete and/or incremental backups (which can be scheduled to be automatic, and can be done over a network). It is available in !Universe
[11:27] <Faltzer> I'm just going to reformat Ubunt.
[11:27] <pvl1> My iPod wont automount
[11:27] <Dialntone> no
[11:27] <neopsyche> ikonia: a monitor message then pops up and says 'max resolution 1280x1024' !
[11:27] <soundray> Faltzer: what's the problem?
[11:28] <neopsyche> my refresh rate says 55hz but that is the ONLY option it gives in gui
[11:28] <ikonia> neopsyche: thats the maximum resolution your monitor will support then
[11:28] <Faltzer> soundray: The problem is, Firefox won't open.
[11:28] <Faltzer> soundray: because the child process does not exist (file or directory doesn't exist)
[11:28] <] tyndareus] > thx Soundray, Ubotu......does it work with DLT & LTO drives?
[11:28] <neopsyche> ikonia: I try to put it into that rez using gui screen tool and blank
[11:28] <ikonia> neopsyche: are you using the nv driver or nvidia driver ?
[11:28] <soundray> ] tyndareus] : I don't know, but don't think so
[11:29] <soundray> Faltzer: what kind of install do you have?
[11:29] <Faltzer> soundray: Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn. This error only happened after running the update manager.
[11:29] <neopsyche> ikonia: nv (and 3d is not working anymore but i have my screen res back now)
[11:29] <biouser> how would onelist the processes (in the terminal)?
[11:29] <ikonia> 22:43 < neopsyche> ikonia: nv (and 3d is not working anymore but i have my
[11:29] <ikonia> oops
[11:29] <biouser> *one list
[11:30] <Viking667> biouser: ps ax
[11:30] <ikonia> neopsyche I told you not to use the nv driver as that is not the nvidia driver
[11:30] <Faltzer> soundray: Plus, browsers don't open at all. Epiphany, Galeon, etc. don't open
[11:30] <neopsyche> ikonia: (in other words.. screen res would not go higher than 800x600 when working)
[11:30] <ikonia> neopsyche you need to use the nvidia driver for full card support
[11:30] <soundray> Faltzer: so you installed, firefox was working, and after update-manager it isn't any more?
[11:30] <Faltzer> soundray: yes.
[11:30] <biouser> Viking667, and to kill one?
[11:30] <neopsyche> ikonia: ubuntu will not boot when using nvidia driver because it says that i have the wrong version isntalld
[11:30] <ikonia> neopsyche: so fix that
[11:30] <neopsyche> how would i update to latest version?
[11:31] <soundray> Faltzer: probably just a matter of finishing the aborted update. Open a terminal and run 'sudo apt-get -f install'
[11:31] <LucianIndy> biouser: kill -9 [proc #] 
[11:31] <ikonia> neopsyche: no-one said anything about updating to the latest version
[11:31] <ikonia> neopsyche: I said fix the problem.
[11:31] <ikonia> neopsyche not update
[11:31] <neopsyche> ikonia: how would it be fixed?
[11:31] <ikonia> neopsyche well, if you posted the xorg log as I request I would have gone through it with you
[11:31] <Faltzer> soundray: Nothing to upgrade..
[11:31] <neopsyche> ikonia: oh sorry.. where can i find those logs?
[11:31] <biouser> LucianIndy, thanks
[11:31] <Faltzer> soundray: nor install.
[11:31] <ikonia> but as you've just done your own thing when I was giving you the exact commands to type I've got other things to do now
[11:31] <neopsyche> ikonia: im a bit of a noobie
[11:31] <neopsyche> ikonia: :-)
[11:32] <soundray> Faltzer: okay. What do you get from a 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'?

[11:34] <Faltzer> sudo apt-get install firefox
[11:34] <Faltzer> bash: firefox: command not found
[11:35] <soundray> Faltzer: okay... what happens if you follow that advice?

[11:38] <erUSUL> neopsyche: what problem?
[11:38] <Colro> Firefox keeps slowing down considerably based on how long it's open / how many tabs are open, which I know is fairly common, but it never does it in windows -- is there a tweak I can use to help fix it? Getting a bit annoying :(

[11:48] <Pici> NeedHelp: stop.
[11:48] <erUSUL> neopsyche: so you have nvidia-glx instaled check if you have nvidia-glx-new

[11:48] <neopsyche> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/m3c30176
[11:48] <Viking667> well, my main machine won't swallow it.
[11:49] <erUSUL> neopsyche: now paste the output of apt-cache policy nvidia-glx-new
[11:49] <neopsyche> erUSUL: says .. installed (none)
[11:49] <erUSUL> neopsyche: what apt-cache policy nvidia-glx-new?
[11:49] <inc595> Viking667, an excuse to upgrade
[11:49] <neopsyche> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/d3f50bea
[11:50] <Colro> Firefox keeps slowing down considerably based on how long it's open / how many tabs are open, which I know is fairly common, but it never does it in windows -- is there a tweak I can use to help fix it? Getting a bit annoying :(
[11:50] <wabiD> close and reopen it
[11:50] <Viking667> inc595: as I said on another unrelated channel, I'm not in the financial position to do that.
[11:50] <IndyGunFreak> Colro: i've never had an issue like that, and i routinely have 5-6 tabs open
[11:51] <Colro> that doesn't fix the problem, though -- it just slows back down eventually
[11:51] <soundray> Faltzer: I haven't seen or heard of this kind of problem before, and I'm stumped. Something serious must have gone wrong on that update-manager run. If this was my machine, I would do a reinstall.
[11:51] <erUSUL> neopsyche: and the error msg was about missmatch between kernel driver and X driver?
[11:51] <pulseeza1> so...any killer apps that I should have? I need a music player and a bit torrent client to name a few.
[11:51] <wabiD> bittorrent -deluge
[11:51] <pulseeza1> what can't you live without?
[11:51] <wabiD> video - vlc
[11:51] <youknowme> pulseeza: you got Wine yet?
[11:52] <inc595> Viking667, wut kind of mobo is this.. i've seen beryl run on some weak machines
[11:52] <neopsyche> erUSUL: yeah something like that !
[11:52] <neopsyche> erUSUL: something like that
[11:52] <soundray> pulseeza1: emacs
[11:52] <neopsyche> erUSUL: you are right
[11:52] <pulseeza1> youknowme: decided just to keep windows for gaming
[11:52] <wabiD> just install vlc and deluge-torrent from synaptic
[11:52] <erUSUL> neopsyche: and you didn't use envy or automatix...
[11:52] <inc595> anyone use avant window navigator?
[11:52] <Viking667> inc595: K6-II @533MHz, with Trident Cyberblade/i7 on its own AGP bus, but no agp slot.
[11:53] <youknowme> pulseeza1: ohic cool, well I'd definitely get VLC in case you come accross a media file you can';t play with other programs
[11:53] <neopsyche> erUSUL: no.. i may have used envy .. because i read somehting abotu that .. but i installed sysinfo and checked settings from there
[11:53] <Viking667> oh yeah, and a VIA Apollo MVP4
[11:53] <neopsyche> erUSUL: but i couldnt change resoltuion etc.
[11:53] <inc595> Viking667, a classic
[11:53] <wabiD> deluge is a simpler utorrent
[11:53] <neopsyche> erUSUL: stuck in 800x600 using nvidia driver
[11:53] <soundray> How does ubuntu intercept and recognize programs that are not installed, but available?
[11:53] <erUSUL> neopsyche: now check what version of the  nvidia-kernel-* package you have instaled...
[11:54] <Viking667> soundray: I *think* there's a bash hook...
[11:54] <pulseeza1> mmm can't find deluge on synaptic
[11:54] <erUSUL> soundray: maybe a bash funtion that inquires the apt database
[11:54] <Viking667> i.e. if ! $(which your-program); then echo "You don't have it here, but you can get it"; fi
[11:54] <inc595> Viking667, if you could get your hands on a 1GHz with at least an intel 3d card you;d be set
[11:54] <neopsyche> erUSUL: 20051028+Ubuntu7(feisty)
[11:54] <pulseeza1> yeah I got vlc already, used it in windows
[11:55] <pulseeza1> any know a good replacement for foobar 2000?
[11:55] <Sergo> hello all
[11:55] <Sergo> how to install compiz fusion ?
[11:55] <Viking667> inc595: yeah, that's the problem. My best so far has been that Duron 700 I mentioned.
[11:55] <ompaul> !compiz | Sergo
[11:55] <ubotu> Sergo: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[11:56] <erUSUL> neopsyche: it should be  nvidia-kernel-1.0.9631 or nvidia-kernel-1.0.9755
[11:56] <inc595> mug some old ladies, that's what i do
[11:56] <neopsyche> erUSUL: how do i change it to the new version?
[11:56] <pulseeza1> so how to get deluge from package manager?
[11:56] <neopsyche> erUSUL: which one should it be though how do i find out 9755 or 9631?
[11:56] <inc595> anyone no how to get avant window manager working without compiz?
[11:57] <erUSUL> neopsyche: can you tell which of the two packages you have instaled? use apt-cache policy like before
[11:57] <Sergo> what is more featured, beryl of compiz fusion ?
[11:57] <Sergo> =] 
[11:57] <ompaul> Sergo, #ubuntu-effects for help with that
[11:58] <neopsyche> erUSUL:  1:1.0.9631+2.6.20.5-16.29 installed but thats nvidia-glx
[11:58] <neopsyche> erUSUL: must i sudo apt-get new version???? or is it unstable/?
[11:58] <scottDkoDer> Hey guys.
[11:58] <inc595> ompaul, is there a directory of all the ubuntu support channels and what they are for
[11:59] <soundray> Viking667, erUSUL: thanks -- I'm not getting any closer, though...
[11:59] <neopsyche> erUSUL: so what do i do now>???
[11:59] <neopsyche> install new???
[11:59] <scottDkoDer> I would like to play mp3's while playing enemy territory, but if I use for instance xmms et will fail to load the audio device even though the graphics work fine.  Any suggestions?
[11:59] <neopsyche> erUSUL: install new?
[12:00] <Colro> Firefox keeps slowing down considerably based on how long it's open / how many tabs are open, which I know is fairly common, but it never does it in windows -- is there a tweak I can use to help fix it? Getting a bit annoying :( -- for example, right now my rendering time on http://scragz.com/tech/mozilla/test-rendering-time.php is 19 seconds, which is a bit excessive (you'll probably get 3-4 seconds)
[12:00] <Faltzer> soundray: sorry, are you still there>?
[12:00] <neopsyche> erUSUL: I have the older one installed
[12:00] <neopsyche> erUSUL: glx new is not installed
[12:00] <Faltzer> soundray: How would I run the re-install anyway?
[12:00] <erUSUL> neopsyche: the two drivers kernel and X are both of the same version but if you used envy...
[12:00] <MasterShrek> Colro, do you have alot of extensions installed for ff?
[12:00] <soundray> Faltzer: just as you did the original install
[12:00] <neopsyche> erUSUL: ....
[12:00] <Colro> MasterShrek: No.
[12:01] <erUSUL> neopsyche: you could have messed something up
[12:01] <neopsyche> erUSUL: hmm
[12:01] <Faltzer> soundray: and I choose the same partition's I have for the current one?
[12:01] <pulseezar> is it ok to install deluge from it's website? The latest release is for feisty fawn...
[12:01] <MasterShrek> Colro, i would try backing up and removing ~/.mozilla and trying again
[12:01] <soundray> Faltzer: yes, it will reformat them. Backup any data you have.
[12:01] <neopsyche> erUSUL:  command envy not found
[12:01] <Colro> MasterShrek: I did, however, steal my windows profile which is probably quite a bit bogged down -- do you happen to know which files to save to keep my saved passwords and bookmarks so I can try a new profile?
[12:01] <pulseezar> and what media/music players do you guys use?
[12:01] <neopsyche> erUSUL: envy not installed
[12:01] <Faltzer> soundray: not like I have any data on here anyway. XD
[12:01] <neopsyche> erUSUL: dont think i ever used it
[12:02] <Faltzer> soundray: Thanks, I'll try that. Now I hope this works. X.X
[12:02] <MasterShrek> Colro, theres a bookmarks.html file in the windows settins folder, i dont know where the passwords and stuff are though
[12:02] <soundray> Faltzer: then it'll be done in half an hour. Good luck
[12:02] <Hacim07> hello,My storage devices don't automount any more.The only thing I can think of is that I upgraded some hal components lately.
[12:02] <ballew> desperate for help!! On my laptop, i tried to move a gedit file to the adjoining workspace, but it disappeared! the PID is still in the queue, but i don't know how to get the window back or save the doc..
[12:02] <soundray> Faltzer: I can assure you, fwiw, that you've hit a rare kind of problem...
[12:02] <erUSUL> neopsyche: well then it would help if you can paste the exact X error you get to see the versions of the drivers that are missmatching
[12:03] <neopsyche> erUSUL: where does x output log files???
[12:03] <Cpudan80> Hey - is there a way to theme the grub boot screen?
[12:03] <erUSUL> neopsyche: /var/log/
[12:03] <Cpudan80> Rather than just the text menu...?
[12:03] <Hacim07> ballew: can you select it using alt-tab
[12:03] <ballew> Hacim07: no.
