| tony | This is just great. I upgraded to Gutsy and it destroyed my laptop. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| bruenig | casey_, a de is a bit more than just gui | 00:00 |
| eyeR | GenNMX: If I could install dmraid again right here, i think i could get it to boot to my partition | 00:00 |
| tony | Nice distro! | 00:00 |
| murkyMurk | Lunks: I'm not sure I understand....all folders look the same in my file browser | 00:00 |
| sco50000 | when i log into my fresh install of gutsy, HAL is failing to initialize | 00:00 |
| bruenig | tony, that is what discrete releases do to you | 00:00 |
| honeking | okay, so noone knows how to fix the sound issue? | 00:00 |
| === ant00 is now known as antdedyet | ||
| sco50000 | please help | 00:00 |
| casey_ | Fryguy: do I just use apt-get and install xfce if I would want to? is it very different from GNOME? | 00:00 |
| lauchazombie | bmk789, is there any irc channel? | 00:00 |
| murkyMurk | honeking: try reinstalling asla | 00:00 |
| bmk789 | lauchazombie: #ubuntu-motu | 00:00 |
| GenNMX | eyeR: Do it from a rescue CD, seems like your only choice. | 00:00 |
| tony | bruenig: So why offer them? | 00:01 |
| bruenig | casey_, yes, far better | 00:01 |
| Leftmost | jrib, I hadn't seen those. I guess I'm just used to hand-editing. Thanks. | 00:01 |
| Techrev | I have no idea why its assuming I'm going to use xinerama.. | 00:01 |
| === GodTodd__ is now known as GodTodd | ||
| GenNMX | eyeR: I did my RAIDs using mdadm manually. No experience with dmraid. | 00:01 |
| Fryguy-- | casey_: yes it's quite different, and yes you can just install it like that | 00:01 |
| bruenig | tony, don't know, there are rolling release distros though, you may prefer those | 00:01 |
| hajiki | hey after the Gutsy update a new item called "Other" appeared in the Application menu. This other menu is filled with items from a Preferences menu, but they are KDE apps. Can someone explain me why those things are there????? | 00:01 |
| bruenig | casey_, I believe it is xfce4 though | 00:01 |
| honeking | murkyMurk: I tried reinstalling alsa, do you think i should completely remove alsa and install again? | 00:01 |
| bruenig | !info xfce4 | 00:01 |
| ubotu | xfce4: Meta-package for the Xfce Lightweight Desktop Environment. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.4.1 (gutsy), package size 5 kB, installed size 48 kB | 00:01 |
| bruenig | indeed | 00:01 |
| casey_ | bruenig: not to be annoying, but what about it is so far better? is that just personal opinion? | 00:01 |
| Lunks | murkyMurk: I'd like to know where my themes are located =P | 00:01 |
| hafez | hi all, I want to change the setting for apache to allowed browsing user home directory somthing like that http://localhost/~hafez/public_html on ubuntu 7.04 apache2 | 00:01 |
| Lunks | I've searched then with no luck | 00:01 |
| bruenig | casey_, lighter, quicker, better features, easier, and so forth | 00:01 |
| bruenig | casey_, no registry, got to hate the registry | 00:02 |
| Stormx2 | hajiki: Disable it if you don't want it. Right click "applications" and choose "edit menus". Uncheck the checkbox next to "Other" | 00:02 |
| astro76 | casey_, xfce is much more lightweight and much less featured than gnome or kde, it's usually only used by people with low-spec systems | 00:02 |
| sco50000 | can someone help me fix this big problem? HAL is failing to initialize when i log into gutsy | 00:02 |
| hajiki | Stormx2: oh thanks | 00:02 |
| bruenig | astro76, has more features than gnome | 00:02 |
| honeking | Lunks: are you using Gutsy? | 00:02 |
| murkyMurk | Lunks: ahh themes are in /usr/share/themes and normally edited through System->Preferences->Appearance | 00:02 |
| Lunks | honeking: yes | 00:02 |
| Stormx2 | hafez: Ah, there is certainly a package for that in synaptic. Search for "apache" and have a look through, I can't remember its name | 00:02 |
| tony | Can anyone help me out? I can't boot up my laptop after upgrading to gutsy. | 00:02 |
| overridex | when using encryption for the root partition in gutsy, where's the file that asks for the passphrase... i assume it's a script somewhere | 00:02 |
| bruenig | astro76, where is the feature to bind a command to a key combination? | 00:02 |
| jared | stupid question i'm in sudo su how do I get out of it | 00:02 |
| casey_ | astro76: so basically it isnt as pretty as GNOME or KDE? | 00:02 |
| Fryguy-- | man i've been in here for a few hours helping people. I should leave and go do something productive | 00:02 |
| hhp21 | Hey everyone.. pidgin won't let me connect to MSN, complaining about missing ssl libraries. I've checked all through synaptic and all the SSL components look like they're there. Any help? | 00:02 |
| sco50000 | can someone help me fix this big problem? HAL is failing to initialize when i log into gutsy, and i can only boot in recovery mode | 00:03 |
| eyeR | GenNMX: Never heard of mdadm until some research I did earlier today. I'll look into it more, I suppose. By "rescue CD" do you mean the "alternate CD"? | 00:03 |
| murkyMurk | honeking: that's what i'd do...i take it that it worked fine in fiesty? | 00:03 |
| Fryguy-- | casey_: there's more to a desktop environment than "pretty" but yes that's part of it | 00:03 |
| Stormx2 | jared: "exit" methinks | 00:03 |
| jared | didn't work | 00:03 |
| Lunks | murkyMurk: But some of my themes are not appearing when running as root, so it mustn't be in /usr/share, or it'd appear... at least, I think so. :P | 00:03 |
| jared | root@jared-desktop:~/Desktop# exit | 00:03 |
| jared | exit | 00:03 |
| jared | root@jared-desktop:~/Desktop# | 00:03 |
| honeking | Lunks: murkyMurk just answered it, but it's in System>Preferences>Appearances | 00:03 |
| Stormx2 | hhp21: www.pidgin.im they have a whole FAQ dedicated to SSL stuff ;D | 00:03 |
| arooni_ | anyone know how to make fonts look better in firefox? they look not so good | 00:03 |
| casey_ | Its an easy switch BACK to GNOME if I would want to right? so its no big deal to install and play around with it? | 00:03 |
| murkyMurk | Lunks: don't run as root | 00:03 |
| bruenig | casey_, it uses gtk, so anything you can get going in gnome as far as aesthetics you can get going in xfce | 00:03 |
| tony | People, help me out! Do I need to reinstall? | 00:04 |
| honeking | murkyMurk: it worked until I installed a few things in synaptic that were graphics related | 00:04 |
| Stormx2 | jared: Are you running as root or did you do a "su -" or "sudo -s" or similar? | 00:04 |
| hhp21 | ooh.. Thanks Stormx2 =D | 00:04 |
| jared | I ran sudo su | 00:04 |
| Stormx2 | jared: Right. | 00:04 |
| Stormx2 | !root | jared | 00:04 |
| ubotu | jared: 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 | 00:04 |
| murkyMurk | honeking: have you been able to run alsamix from the CLi? | 00:04 |
| sco50000 | can someone help me fix this big problem? HAL is failing to initialize when i log into gutsy, and i can only boot in recovery mode | 00:04 |
| Stormx2 | jared: Check there. It's listed how to get out of it. | 00:04 |
| sco50000 | please help! | 00:04 |
| kst- | where is the script for a normal non-xgl gnome session stored? i wanna run 2 sessions (one with xgl and compiz and one without xgl for games) at the same time but right now i dont have a windows decorator on 2nd session :( | 00:04 |
| honeking | murkyMurk: no | 00:04 |
| stinger05 | hi, im in the live cd now, but it's still on the detecting filesystems part while installing,,,it's stuck on it meaning it's not progressing, what can i do ? | 00:04 |
| murkyMurk | honeking: *a;samixer | 00:04 |
| Stormx2 | !repeat | sco50000 | 00:04 |
| SlimG | Could anyone with gutsy do this search for me and tell me where the file is located?: find /lib/modules/$(uname -r) -name "snd-hda-intel.ko" | 00:04 |
| ubotu | sco50000: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 00:04 |
| chaplan | i have installed gutsy and can't use kopete, error kills app | 00:04 |
| Stormx2 | stinger05: How long have you waited? | 00:05 |
| stinger05 | 45 minutes :S | 00:05 |
| murkyMurk | honeking: is that no you haven't tried or no it doesn't work? | 00:05 |
| bruenig | casey_, http://i23.tinypic.com/118gjdw.png | 00:05 |
| Fryguy-- | SlimG: /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/media/snd-hda-intel/snd-hda-intel.ko | 00:05 |
| sco50000 | saying "!repeat | sco50000" doesn't help me much | 00:05 |
| stinger05 | but the system is still running | 00:05 |
| Techrev | In case someone with the same prob comes in, disabling xgl did the trick.. Its set to use xinerama, and when you dont' have xinerama configured in xorg.conf it gets pissy, and only can use 1 monitor.. | 00:05 |
| honeking | murkyMurk: when i try to run alsamixer, it spits out this message in terminal: "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device" | 00:05 |
| sco50000 | it spams up the channel more than i do | 00:05 |
| pitonpissr | anyone else having problems with SAMBA after Gutsy upgrade | 00:05 |
| SlimG | Fryguy--: thanks a bunch :) | 00:05 |
| kc | is there some cosmetic software that allows you to customize your desktop??? | 00:06 |
| chaplan | i have installed gutsy and can't use kopete, error kills application, anyone with the same problem? | 00:06 |
| kst- | is there a way to install Kile (KDE editor) without installing all kinds of KDE packages? i'm using gutsy + gnome | 00:06 |
| Lunks | murkyMurk: I'll try to be clearer: I want to match my root windows with my user window controls. I installed most of my themes through gnome-appearance-properties, using the install button. As it didn't ask for my password, I assume it is on my home dir, or it'd sudoed gnome-appearance-properties. I tried to run gnome-appearance-properties as sudo in order to change my super-user theme, but the themes I wanted weren't there. | 00:06 |
| Fryguy-- | kst-: no | 00:06 |
| Redleer | hmm how to update radeon drivers? | 00:06 |
| sco50000 | can someone help me fix this big problem? HAL is failing to initialize when i log into gutsy, and i can only boot in recovery mode | 00:06 |
| murkyMurk | honeking: ouch, looks like the device files no longer exist. Yep reinstall alsa...there might be a reconfigure, thingy | 00:06 |
| honeking | murkyMurk: also, when I go to System>Preferences>Sound there is no default sound card in the drop down menu | 00:06 |
| Xacarith | ok, any one, I keep getting an error saying 'Can't guess meta-package' Why/? Follows by saying it does not contain any of the ubuntu desktops as well it can't tell what version of ubuntu I'm using | 00:06 |
| Stormx2 | sco50000: Read what ubotu put. Please follow the rules. | 00:06 |
| astro76 | sco50000, eventually they'll stop !repeat'ing and start kicking | 00:06 |
| vocx | bruenig, ah you are on xcfe. But ugly colors in xchat, you should have a dark theme, it's easier on the eyes. | 00:06 |
| jrib | sco50000: wait at least 15 minutes before repeating please | 00:06 |
| Skratz0r | Did i ever leave? :O | 00:06 |
| honeking | murkyMurk: i know that alsa is tied in with a bunch of other programs, would i have to delete all of them as well? | 00:07 |
| murkyMurk | Lunks: all themes are /usr/shares/themes/ | 00:07 |
| kc | i guess what i am really asking is when i was running windows ( i know sad) i could go to download.com and get stuff to help me personalize the desktop is there a site like that for ubuntu??? | 00:07 |
| Skratz0r | I just turned my comp on sleep. xD | 00:07 |
| Skratz0r | Cya dudes | 00:07 |
| Lunks | murkyMurk: Then how come when I run as sudo, some themes I'm using don't show there? | 00:07 |
| murkyMurk | honeking: alsa shoudl be an indepenent module...others depend on it but not it on them | 00:07 |
| Stormx2 | Lunks: Ah! I know what you mean! | 00:07 |
| bruenig | vocx, my terminal is dark, that is where my eyes are most of the time, the colors in xchat are just the default, help delineate people, haven't put much effort into it | 00:07 |
| lauchazombie | kc, depens on you desktop environment | 00:07 |
| stinger05 | stormx2: what can i do? im installing it dual-boot with windows XP, does it usually take that long when i have a 200GB HD with data ? | 00:07 |
| sco50000 | jrib: 15 mins is quite awhile if you think about how many posts there are per minute | 00:07 |
| Stormx2 | Lunks: I had the same problem! a simple symlink solves your problem. Gimme a min | 00:07 |
| murkyMurk | Lunks: sorry, no idea. | 00:07 |
| lauchazombie | kc theres is gnome-look for example | 00:07 |
| sco50000 | jrib: no one will ever see it | 00:08 |
| Lunks | murkyMurk: Ok, thanks anyway. Sorry for not speaking very clear on the first time. :P | 00:08 |
| kc | thanks launch | 00:08 |
| honeking | murkyMurk: the reason why i ask is i went to uninstall alsa last night, and it had a list of like 20 progs it was going to delete | 00:08 |
| Lunks | English is not my native language. :P | 00:08 |
| chaplan | i have installed gutsy and can't use kopete, error kills application, anyone with the same problem? | 00:08 |
| Xacarith | Guess I'm on my own on this one? | 00:08 |
| casey_ | bruenig: its easy to switch back to GNOME if I dont like xfce right? | 00:08 |
| casey_ | because I've interested | 00:08 |
| kc | is that a download under add remove | 00:08 |
| sco50000 | can someone help me fix this big problem? HAL is failing to initialize when i log into gutsy, and i can only boot in recovery mode | 00:08 |
| Stormx2 | Lunks: Try this: sudo rm -rf /root/.themes && sudo ln -s /home/yourusernamehere/.themes /root/.themes | 00:08 |
| hafez | Stormx2 can you give the package name ( apache ) | 00:08 |
| vocx | bruenig, you mean you use vim. Also, why do you hang in politics? it's crazy! | 00:09 |
| Stormx2 | hafez: I'm more than a little busy at the moment. Sorry | 00:09 |
| Lunks | Stormx2: Thanks a lot, man | 00:09 |
| lauchazombie | kc is a website | 00:09 |
| jrib | sco50000: many have seen your question, the key is to wait for new people who know the answer to be paying attention | 00:09 |
| murkyMurk | honeking: yeah, i think synaptic tries to clear everything that depends on it as well....you're probably best off just forcing reinstall via apt-get install -f | 00:09 |
| lauchazombie | kc first what desktop enviroment do you have? | 00:09 |
| Dreamglider | f´ed in the A | 00:09 |
| Lunks | Stormx2: I must be very sleepy... ~/.themes is pretty obvious lol | 00:09 |
| Stormx2 | Lunks: Lemme know if it works :D | 00:09 |
| hafez | Stormx2 don' worry thanks | 00:09 |
| stinger05 | Stormx2: i have the problem still, it's not progressing :S:S | 00:09 |

( This is the reason I would like to recompile my kernel, a kerenl with only one sound card driver will only find one card. I found that out with Debian etch, which compiles fine.) The end result is that I still would like to run ubuntu, But I really would like to have sound. Ideas? | 00:12 |

| vocx | gunnar, normally you do not need to recompile the kernel, just a kernel module, which provides the driver for your device. | 00:13 |

| User667 | i am having trouble with the fact that ubuntu asks for pass after resume (from suspend) | 00:16 |
| Jan4uxz | HI all | 00:16 |
| sco50000 | jrib: which workaround do you think i should try? | 00:16 |
| dmx | j #ubuntu-es | 00:16 |
| Fastn | d4rkmonkey, everything works :) i just uninstalled everything and reinstall later, but i have 16 desktop-areas now, how to reduce them, when i dont have compiz manager | 00:16 |
| vocx | gunnar, to be certain, disable the card in the Motherboard BIOS. Then try in Linux. | 00:16 |
| === dmx is now known as _Christian | ||
| Jan4uxz | could someone lend me a helping hand on Fakeraid issues? | 00:16 |
| jrib | sco50000: read through *all* the comments and then decide. I just glanced at them | 00:16 |
| arooni | Fryguy--, it seems to adjust everything *except* fonts in FF | 00:16 |
| gunnar | vocx: I have tried that. | 00:16 |
| Fryguy-- | arooni: refresh page? | 00:16 |
| d4rkmonkey | Fastn I think the only way to reduce them is using Compiz config settings manager... I don't know any other wasy | 00:17 |
| Stormx2 | FlurrY: "This error is returned if the partition requested exists, but the filesystem type cannot be recognized by GRUB. " | 00:17 |
| kc | for the ones who told me to use paste bin here is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41596/ | 00:17 |
| arooni | Fryguy--, are there no other fonts i should install? | 00:17 |
| FlurrY | Yeah, I found that | 00:17 |
| Xacarith | QUIT | 00:17 |
| vocx | gunnar, well... my AC'97 just works, woot! | 00:17 |
| Jan4uxz | could someone lend me a helping hand on Fakeraid issues? | 00:17 |
| kc | once again sorry for flooding earlier | 00:17 |
| sco50000 | jrib: none of those people are talking about gutsy, they are talking about dapper and breezy | 00:17 |
| Stormx2 | FlurrY: Are you on a live cd on the machine now? | 00:17 |
| FlurrY | I'm on my other computer beside it | 00:18 |
| mrunagi | what does cp omitting directory mean? | 00:18 |
| renato | how can I install aquamarine on 7.10? | 00:18 |
| jrib | sco50000: yes they are... I read it | 00:18 |
| murkyMurk | Fastn: right click the window switcher app in the task bar, properties and set how many ffrom there | 00:18 |
| gunnar | vocx: That is the one I'm trying to disable. :) | 00:18 |
| bruenig | mrunagi, means you didn't include the recursive option and so it isn't going to copy that directory | 00:18 |
| Stormx2 | FlurrY: Pop in a live CD to the failing machine, we'll examine your partition tables a little bit. | 00:18 |
| arooni | Fryguy--, does ubuntu install these by default: Bitstream Vera Sans", Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif ? if not, how can i get them | 00:18 |
| FlurrY | alright | 00:18 |
| mrunagi | -r is recursive? | 00:18 |
| murkyMurk | mrunagi: that means you forgot to put a -R at the end of a cp statement so it's ignoring subdirectories | 00:18 |
| Fryguy-- | arooni: as i mentioned before, msttcorefonts | 00:18 |
| FlurrY | Does the livecd have wireless card drivers? | 00:19 |
| ccii | gyj | 00:19 |
| Stormx2 | arooni: They aren't installed by default. They can be installed via the "msttcorefonts" package. | 00:19 |
| derrrface | 7.06 and now 7.10 sound will play but has annoying static/crackling noise when playing. once in a while after selecting, de-selecting, and again; selecting "VIA 8233" as sound device: the sound will play fine. once I reboot; sound is crackling/static... | 00:19 |
| Stormx2 | FlurrY: Some, yes. Otherwise just continue talking on your current machine. | 00:19 |
| FlurrY | K | 00:19 |
| arooni | Stormx2, do i need to restart firefox? X? to get it work? | 00:19 |
| FlurrY | i meant for if I have to pastebin anything or whatnot | 00:19 |
| kc | so gnome-look is a web site? | 00:19 |
| owen1 | how can i send voice emails (gtalk on windows can do it)? | 00:19 |
| bruenig | arooni, X | 00:19 |
| DShepherd | User667, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=263356 -- that might help | 00:19 |
| Stormx2 | arooni: They should work straight away. I really can't remember. Try restarting firefox I suppose. | 00:19 |
| murkyMurk | kc: yep | 00:19 |
| DShepherd | kc, gnome-look.org is a website | 00:20 |
| jrib | sco50000: trust me, just sit down and spend 5 minutes reading the comments so you can understand the issue while you wait for someone to answer you here | 00:20 |
| kc | sweet thanks fellas | 00:20 |
| gunnar | vocx: I am going to download the kernel source that matches the version that ubuntu comes with and then compile from that. That one may work and not give errors. ( Hope that it is a kerenel issue :) | 00:20 |
| bruenig | depends actually if they are installed in a font directory that is already being loaded actually | 00:20 |
| Fryguy-- | gunnar: you almost certainly shouldn't be compiling a kernel just to get a common sound card to work | 00:20 |
| heatman | Hello. Could someone tell me where i can find a wiki on a way to backup a partition via a shell command | 00:20 |
| bruenig | owen1, record your voice, attach it to an email? | 00:20 |
| FlurrY | I'm thinking its just an issue with the way its recognizing my three HDs | 00:20 |
| vocx | !kernel > gunnar | 00:20 |
| Fryguy-- | heatman: dd | 00:20 |
| bruenig | !backup | heatman | 00:20 |

| IdleOne | errr | 00:21 |
| heatman | lol ty | 00:21 |
| jrib | heatman: consider partimage | 00:21 |
| bruenig | IdleOne, chuckle | 00:21 |
| vocx | gunnar, anyway there is more info on kernels the Ubuntu way in the forums. | 00:21 |
| arooni | Stormx2, omg that looks sooooooo much better, thanks! | 00:21 |
| * IdleOne snarls | 00:21 | |
| murkyMurk | heatman: you need to google on the use of the command tar | 00:21 |
| owen1 | bruenig: ok, but it might be a big file.. what app should i use? | 00:21 |
| mrunagi | ty | 00:21 |
| Stormx2 | arooni: No prob. | 00:21 |
| bruenig | !info audacity | owen1 perhaps | 00:21 |

| mrunagi | i got the help files working im happy now | 00:21 |
| Fastn | d4rkmonkey, if i want to uninstall compizconfig-settings-manager with under packages and remove all configurationsfiles, do i run "apt-get --purge remove package" or "apt-get --purge autoremove package" | 00:21 |
| kst- | anyone an expert with sessions? I just did a 2nd session login for same user and when i tried to logout my other old session would freeze | 00:21 |
| KidProQuo | #ubuntu-art | 00:22 |
| owen1 | ubotu: what format of audio should i use? | 00:22 |
| d4rkmonkey | Fastn no idea. | 00:22 |
| Lejzi | !kernel | 00:22 |
| ubotu | kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel. You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild. Also, see !stages | 00:22 |
| derrrface | now the error i get is: audiotestsrc wav=sine freq=512 !audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink:Resource busy or not available | 00:22 |
| bruenig | Fastn, the compiz configuration files are almost certainly going to have been created dynamically in your home folder and therefore you will have to remove them yourself | 00:22 |

| AllyUnion | Hi... I just attempted to upgrade to gutsy on my Toshiba U200 laptop and it won't power on anymore... | 00:22 |
| murkyMurk | Fastn: a simple man apt-get will answer your question | 00:22 |
| IdleOne | !ccsm | kst- | 00:23 |

| jonjon09 | can someone help me reinstall ubuntu, I tired to upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 but it froze in the middle of the upgrade so I had to reboot and now it wont let me boot in anymore | 00:23 |
| kst- | yeah thanks IdleOne | 00:23 |
| FlurrY | you're wanting my linux HD right | 00:23 |
| d4rkmonkey | owen1 no idea. | 00:23 |
| Fryguy-- | gunnar: the actual process of compiling a kernel is simple, getting a kernel that is configured correctly is very difficult | 00:23 |
| Stormx2 | owen1: Just use sound recorder and attach it to an email? | 00:23 |
| vocx | d4rkmonkey, ubotu is quite smart, it deceives people | 00:23 |
| bruenig | owen1, you can pick whichever format, I assume audacity will put out wmvs | 00:23 |
| bruenig | owen1, but you can transcode that to whatever | 00:24 |
| Fryguy-- | gunnar: you really shouldn't be compiling a kernel to get an audigy working, as they should be able to work my just loading drivers | 00:24 |
| Stormx2 | FlurrY: Yeah. The one you've installed ubuntu on | 00:24 |
| AllyUnion | jonjon09: Have you tried getting into single user mode? | 00:24 |
| d4rkmonkey | vocx well, it doesn't actually know anything, it just has a bunch of phrases that it spits out when you tell it to | 00:24 |
| FlurrY | k | 00:24 |
| owen1 | Stormx2: bruenig ok, thanks | 00:24 |
| FlurrY | Stormx2, done | 00:24 |
| Stormx2 | FlurrY: /dev/hda would be your first hard drive. /dev/hdb would be your second | 00:24 |
| FlurrY | Yeah, i got that | 00:24 |
| jonjon09 | AllyUnion whats single user mode? | 00:24 |
| IdleOne | !bot | d4rkmonkey | 00:24 |

| bruenig | d4rkmonkey, it knows plenty, it just needs to be prompted to reveal its knowledge | 00:24 |
| FlurrY | and actually its sda/sdb/sdc | 00:24 |
| IdleOne | I beg to differ :P | 00:24 |
| Nergar | hello | 00:24 |
| gunnar | To reiterate : I would like to REMOVE the driver. Then only one sound card will work. I have tried "asoundconf list" and it shows both cards. But when I do a "asoundconf set-default-card" it still will not work. | 00:24 |
| FlurrY | but still | 00:24 |
| Pirate_Hunter | anyone want to help me fix some easy scripts that just wont run? | 00:24 |
| bruenig | Pirate_Hunter, sure, pastebin them and link | 00:25 |
| vocx | d4rkmonkey, ha, as bruenig says | 00:25 |
| Pirate_Hunter | bruenig: ok give me a sec | 00:25 |
| AllyUnion | !single user mode | 00:25 |
| murkyMurk | Fryguy--: one of the audigy versions is still blacklisted by alsa..it's an early, odd one that needed an odd module | 00:25 |
| Stormx2 | FlurrY: Uhg. It's tricky seeing as you're on another computer. How many partitions does it list? Could you create a text file listing their names and their filesystems and post it to a pastebin? I'm assuming the live cd machine has no internet. | 00:25 |
| Fryguy-- | gunnar: have you bothered googling or anything? pretty much every single person who owns an audigy is also going to have an onboard sound card, and i'm sure they all get their audigy's working without recompiling | 00:25 |
| FlurrY | Could I open a PM with you? | 00:25 |
| jonjon09 | AllyUnion how do I get in it and how is going to help me? | 00:25 |
| chaplan | need help with kopete in gutsy | 00:25 |
| Stormx2 | FlurrY: Sure. | 00:25 |
| Nergar | i uninstalled network-manager so i could install wicd but when i unistall nm it turns of my network card, how do i turn it back on?? | 00:26 |
| AllyUnion | jonjon09: Also known as "recovery mode" | 00:26 |
| gunnar | Fryguy : I have searched high and low. :( | 00:26 |
| jonjon09 | oh ok | 00:26 |
| Fryguy-- | murkyMurk: right, and being blacklisted by alsa isn't going to be solved by recompiling a kernel | 00:26 |
| murkyMurk | gunnar: rmmod the driver and then blacklist it | 00:26 |
| Pirate_Hunter | bruenig: kk for who ever wants to quickly help me get this scripts working check them out here http://paste.lisp.org/display/49581 | 00:26 |

| murkyMurk | Fryguy--: yep | 00:26 |
| jonjon09 | AllyUnion Ill try right now | 00:26 |
| d4rkmonkey | bruenig haha, whatever | 00:26 |
| ChrisC35 | Ubuntu installer must be made in Europe | 00:26 |
| Stormx2 | ChrisC35: Still in America though. | 00:26 |
| gunnar | murkyMurk: What is this blacklisting? | 00:26 |
| d4rkmonkey | ChrisC35 I think Europeans know what country vancouver is in... | 00:26 |
| bruenig | Pirate_Hunter, ok what is the error? | 00:27 |
| IdleOne | Nergar: download the .deb for wicd then uninstall nm and install wicd using dpkg -i wicd.deb ( or whatever the name is ) and then you should be good to go but I cant promise | 00:27 |
| tdw | okay, so i got ubuntu working now | 00:27 |
| ChrisC35 | People usually mean the US by America | 00:27 |
| derrrface | how do i re-install audio drivers (none of the ones installed are working properly) either they work (have loud noise/crackling) or work once (one instance) then continue to make noise | 00:27 |
| riotk | ChrisC35: and canada is in ... say it with me, now... North America | 00:27 |
| tdw | but i can't get my wireless network to work | 00:27 |
| cwillu | ChrisC35: only in america :p | 00:27 |
| vocx | ChrisC35, wrong assumption | 00:27 |
| murkyMurk | gunnar: ubuntu maintains a list of modules (drivers) to not load at startup...putt your troublesome driver there and that hardware won't work | 00:27 |
| Fryguy-- | gunnar: you read this? http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-18802.html | 00:27 |

| murkyMurk | gunnar: but alsa used to mainatin a blacklist of unsupported hardware...there was a vesion of an audigy soundcard on it for years | 00:28 |
| IdleOne | Nergar: what is wrong with using NM anyway? | 00:28 |
| Nergar | IdleOne, i CAN'T turn *** | 00:28 |

| lordlimecat | is there a command which will recreate xorg.conf? I dont have one that works--its set to use an ati card, but i have an nvidia one, so even the bulletproof x doesnt work unless i delete the xorg | 00:29 |

| === Cryoniq_ is now known as Cryoniq | ||
| cwillu | AllyUnion: unplug it, take out the battery for a few seconds, put the battery back in, and it should fire up | 00:30 |
| AllyUnion | jonjon09: Try: 'sudo apt-get upgrade' | 00:30 |
| murkyMurk | AllyUnion: then it is clearly dead. BIOS is pre-OS | 00:30 |
| cwillu | AllyUnion: it happens once in a while | 00:30 |
| AllyUnion | cwillu: It did, but dies shortly after. | 00:30 |
| cwillu | AllyUnion: (with laptops, not ubuntu) | 00:30 |
| cwillu | AllyUnion: power cable or socket sounds like it's bad then | 00:31 |
| bruenig | Pirate_Hunter, it is probably the ./home line, it should not have a . in front of it | 00:31 |
| AllyUnion | cwillu: It doesn't explain how it's been working fine for the past year until the moment I upgraded to gutsy. | 00:31 |
| jonjon09 | AllyUnion - E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. | 00:31 |
| cwillu | AllyUnion: unhook everything again, plug it back in, let it sit plugged in for an hour, and then try turning it on | 00:31 |
| AllyUnion | jonjon09: Try running that command | 00:31 |
| Pirate_Hunter | bruenig: will try but doubt it | 00:31 |
| owen1 | sound recording doesn't record anyhing. anyone? | 00:31 |
| cwillu | AllyUnion: coincidence | 00:31 |

| AllyUnion | cwillu: Some coincidence... the odds on that are pretty damn high | 00:32 |
| jrcdude | Assault cube text comes up as blocks? | 00:32 |
| murkyMurk | AllyUnion: yes it does. Hardware always 'just after' X event and usually X has got f all to do with it | 00:32 |
| Stormx2 | owen1: Please clarify. The recorded sound is silence, or something else? | 00:32 |
| cwillu | AllyUnion: there's not much that ubuntu can do to make a computer not boot up to the bios anymore :p | 00:32 |

| owen1 | Stormx2: i can record, but when clicking on play, it dosn't play anything. | 00:33 |
| AllyUnion | Stormx2: No | 00:33 |
| owen1 | Stormx2: it looks like the record itself if fine (i see the time counter after i hit 'record') | 00:33 |
| cwillu | AllyUnion: if it boots up and dies almost immediately, it's almost certainly a battery issue; unhook everything (including battery), then plug the battery back in, then plug in the power supply, let it charge (turned off) for an hour, and try it again | 00:33 |
| N3rg4r | IdleOne, any idea how to turn on my wifi card? | 00:33 |
| Stormx2 | owen1: Does it play as if the track is silence, ie, the recorded sound is the right length but contains silence. | 00:33 |
| sivik | what ports can you run http over, so does it matter | 00:34 |
| sivik | n3rg4r what kind of card? | 00:34 |
| Stormx2 | owen1: or does it simply refuse to play anything? | 00:34 |
| IdleOne | N3rg4r: sorry no | 00:34 |
| Pirate_Hunter | bruenig: nope going to try from the start again and see if it works :( | 00:34 |
| cwillu | sivik: any port you want, although 80 is the default if you don't specify otherwise (assuming I know what you're talking about) | 00:34 |
| owen1 | Stormx2: it refuse to play. i click 'play' and nothing happened, | 00:34 |
| Stormx2 | N3rg4r: ifup wlan0 ? ;) | 00:34 |

| sivik | cwillu: i know what the default is, i just want to run mythweb but my isp blocks incoming port 80 | 00:34 |
| cwillu | AllyUnion: no, a battery issue preventing a laptop from posting the bios | 00:34 |
| AllyUnion | cwillu: It doesn't explain why the computer post when the battery is disconnected and the power adapter is connected. | 00:35 |
| cwillu | sivik: you can run any port you want, but some people may not be able to get to a non-standard port (some company's block) | 00:35 |

| murkyMurk | AllyUnion: i used to be a mechanic...you wouldn't believe the amount of times a puncture that happened 'just after' a service was somehow our fault | 00:36 |

| N3rg4r | Stormx2, it didn't work, my network card is OFF not "not configured" | 00:36 |

| phixnay | cwillu: mdadm sounds familliar, I don't know about the others | 00:38 |
| AllyUnion | unravel: Actually, the scenario is: battery plugged in by itself after having it unplugged for awhile = machine turns on for a few seconds. Power cord attached in any manner = machine does not turn on. | 00:38 |

| cafuego | fddf: What are you doing? Posting warez here? | 00:50 |
| bruenig | Pirate_Hunter, the . means current directory, . means current directory .. means the directory above the current directory. So when it is doing ./espxe it is the path currentdirectory/espxe | 00:50 |
| flick | cafuego, what about 12? | 00:50 |
| snes_rocks | Hello! | 00:50 |
| AllyUnion | jonjon09: You can always change your apt-get repository to point at feisty and downgrade | 00:50 |

| m1r | ChrisC35 , is your PC conected to network ? | 00:51 |
| AndrewEMT | anyone available to help me? | 00:51 |
| AndrewEMT | with ne question | 00:51 |
| AndrewEMT | one* | 00:51 |
| Pelo | snes_rocks, did you need to configure them before they worked the firt time ? do it again | 00:51 |
| SOUL_ASSASSIN | # ifconfig eth1 up Doesn't work... | 00:51 |
| Pirate_Hunter | astro76: bash what... sorry didnt get you | 00:51 |
| cwillu | phixnay: if you installed evms previously (might have been a dependency of something else, or just seemed cool but didn't actually do anything) | 00:51 |
| phixnay | AndrewEMT: go ahead | 00:51 |
| stephans | What do I need to install in order to run my 32 bit apps in Ubuntu 64? | 00:51 |
| flick | cafuego, i see thanks | 00:51 |
| Pelo | AndrewEMT, just ask a question | 00:51 |
| cafuego | !ask | 00:51 |
| ubotu | Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 00:51 |
| andycr | fixed, its a bug in gtk-qt-engine | 00:51 |
| IdleOne | ChrisC35: [19:49:23] <m1r> ChrisC34 ; do you have network conection to that pc ? | 00:51 |
| ChrisC35 | m1r Yes it is plugged into the router | 00:51 |
| snes_rocks | I didn't have to configure them at all, and they worked on the LiveCD | 00:51 |
| Pirate_Hunter | bruenig: if that is the case wheer am i getting it wrong than? | 00:51 |
| m1r | ChrisC35 , did u cofigure network ? | 00:51 |
| Pelo | stephans, check in the forum I am sure it is covered, www.ubuntuforums.org | 00:51 |
| snes_rocks | however, sometime between installing and now, they stopped working | 00:51 |
| AndrewEMT | Okay, I want to know how to error-check my filesystem without causing damage... | 00:51 |
| murkyMurk | stephans: use a 32bit chroot environment | 00:51 |
| phixnay | cwillu: ah ok. nothing complained when I removed it, so I hope it's ok | 00:51 |
| levander | Oh wait! I think it's because I'm removing ubuntu-desktop (yes, I have to, so that I can reinstall linux-sound-base and alsa-base - my sound card isn't currently working). It's saying if I remove ubuntu-desktop, that these compiz packages will be made obsolete. So, I don't want to remove those packages. I just want to reinstall linux-sound-base, alsa-base, and ubuntu-desktop. Does that sound right? | 00:51 |
| cafuego | stephans: ia32-libs | 00:51 |
| bruenig | Pirate_Hunter, you need to paste error messages and you need to paste the actual script not this one | 00:51 |
| SOUL_ASSASSIN | my question is why won't Ubuntu do anything when I send ifconfig eth1 up command to it...? | 00:51 |
| stephans | cafuego: thanx! | 00:52 |
| phixnay | stephans: most apps have 64 bit counterparts. | 00:52 |
| Pelo | AndrewEMT, do you hae any reason to do so ? or are you just looking for trouble ? | 00:52 |

| ChrisC35 | I never saw a step/dialog for network setup | 00:52 |

| SOUL_ASSASSIN | Oh...I see... | 00:52 |
| MasterShrek | SOUL_ASSASSIN, what kind of card? | 00:52 |
| levander | AndrewEMT: You use the fsck command, but you have to look at all the various command line options for it. | 00:52 |
| SOUL_ASSASSIN | Dell TrueMobile 1300 Mini-PCI Card | 00:53 |
| murkyMurk | SOUL_ASSASSIN: do you have an eth1? What's eth0 doing? | 00:53 |
| AndrewEMT | I don't know how hence my coming in here, I'm still learning linux | 00:53 |
| jonjon09 | AllyUnion it still doesnt work...the exact error message is - Failed to start X server. It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem? | 00:53 |
| levander | AndrewEMT: "man fsck" is where to start | 00:53 |
| AndrewEMT | and I've heard it can cause damage | 00:53 |
| DEAthKA | eth0 is wired netw probably | 00:53 |
| ChrisC35 | m1r ctrl-alt-f4 gave me a blank screen with a flaching cursor in top left | 00:53 |
| freeman163 | haha | 00:53 |
| Pelo | AndrewEMT, define funny ? | 00:53 |
| SOUL_ASSASSIN | murkyMurk: I don't know what eth0 is doing since I'm not trying to use it... | 00:53 |
| AndrewEMT | Strange behavior | 00:53 |
| AndrewEMT | sound cut outs | 00:54 |
| tlarkin244 | I just plugged in my radeon x1600 pci-e card, when i rebooted, it told me that the computer had to be run in safe graphics mode, and that I would have to configure it myself. I configured it then went and enabled the card on restricted drivers, when I restart, none of the changes were saved, and it prompts me for the same thing | 00:54 |
| m1r | chrisc35 , try alt-ctr. f1 | 00:54 |
| levander | AndrewEMT: the man page might be a little cryptic, you may also have to search google for an fsck tutorial | 00:54 |
| SOUL_ASSASSIN | but it's listing it as my LAN card... | 00:54 |
| tlarkin244 | can any body help? | 00:54 |
| phixnay | AndrewEMT: use fsck, I think there's a way of setting it to run on your next boot. It just checks the file systems for errors | 00:54 |
| cwillu | AndrewEMT: what are you doing? | 00:54 |
| AndrewEMT | I did, I found nothing helpful | 00:54 |
| Pelo | AndrewEMT, take a look at this channel, and how fast it is going by , if you can provide usable info we can't do much for you | 00:54 |
| murkyMurk | SOUL_ASSASSIN: are we to assume that eth0 is your wired lan port and eth1 your othered wired lan port? or is it wifi? | 00:54 |
| phixnay | AndrewEMT: where did you hear it causes problems? | 00:54 |
| ChrisC35 | m1r nothing happens, still teh blank screen | 00:54 |
| SOUL_ASSASSIN | murkyMurk: you got it.. | 00:54 |
| keen | how do you change the active partition with ubuntu? | 00:54 |
| AndrewEMT | All over the internet | 00:54 |
| m1r | chrisc35 , your install is probably searching for network server , it will stay that until it search all apt sources | 00:54 |
| AndrewEMT | I looked up fsck | 00:54 |
| Pelo | keen, what ? | 00:54 |
| SOUL_ASSASSIN | lspci | grep eth | 00:55 |
| cwillu | AndrewEMT: what are you trying to do? | 00:55 |
| Funcoot | Guys, when I use sudo apt-get update and then try to update my emerald themes it says no update is available even though im at verison 2.1 | 00:55 |
| DEAthKA | check first the module fot eth1 | 00:55 |

| keen | pelo, my hdd is broken up into 3 partitions, i need to make another partition the active one, but i have no idea how to do that in ubuntu | 00:55 |
| cwillu | keen: cfdisk | 00:55 |
| Funcoot | repos? | 00:55 |
| lufis | Where can I find a repo with updated packages for amsn and tcl/tk? | 00:55 |

| m1r | chrisc35 - ctrl-alt f7 | 00:55 |
| cwillu | keen: sudo cfdisk, actually | 00:55 |
| murkyMurk | SOUL_ASSASSIN: it mightn't be called eth1 anymore..do a lsdev and look for maybe a wlan0 or similar | 00:55 |
| sparr | i hate broken package dependencies | 00:55 |
| cwillu | keen: but be careful | 00:55 |
| Kensey | Funcoot repositories | 00:55 |
| orbstra | hey I am getting a "upnp error -203" when running mediatomb on my ubuntu feisty server.. can anyone help me with this? | 00:55 |
| Funcoot | Pelo, sooooo 2.1 is the correct version? | 00:56 |
| Pelo | keen, I don't understand what you mean by active , in linux you mount partitions you want to use | 00:56 |
| Kensey | The archives of software that make up Ubuntu | 00:56 |
| ChrisC35 | m1r dhcp i dont think so - not doing anyting special besides port forwarding and mac address filtering | 00:56 |
| Funcoot | Pelo, but I saw someone with 5.2 :( | 00:56 |
| foug | ok 7.10 is giving me a few problems. I keep getting a lot of odd tasks that boost my CPU usage to 20-90%. Some of them are "pdftotext" or "trackerd" and even a root task after i installed something. I never had any of these tasks hogging my cpu usage in 7.04. | 00:56 |
| Pelo | Funcoot, if that is the one currently available in the repos it is the correct version | 00:56 |
| m1r | chrisc35 , there is your problem | 00:56 |
| m1r | chrisc35 , ubuntu want | 00:56 |
| lufis | foug: trackerd is a search indexer, disable it if you dont use search | 00:56 |
| foug | lufis: where at? | 00:56 |
| keen | pelo, basically i wanna use the darwin bootloader instead of grub and its on another partition | 00:56 |
| garu | hi everyone | 00:56 |
| SOUL_ASSASSIN | murkyMurk: when did the change in device naming convention change? | 00:56 |
| cwillu | foug: mostly normal, trackerd will go away on its own; root task doesn't tell us anything | 00:56 |
| m1r | chrisc35, ubuntu wants take some part of install form internet and it cant connect | 00:56 |
| SOUL_ASSASSIN | BRB...gonna try lsdev real quicl... | 00:57 |
| cwillu | keen: sudo cfdisk | 00:57 |
| lufis | foug: sys > prefs > indexing preferences | 00:57 |
| keen | cwillu, is there anymore to that command, cfdisk? | 00:57 |
| Funcoot | Pelo, well thanks for the hasty response, most IRC channel members are not as helpful. | 00:57 |
| jdong | foug: tracker provides an index for quick searching, and only after an initial install does it need a day or so to index your home directory | 00:57 |
| ChrisC35 | m1r mac filtering is only for wireless i belive? | 00:57 |
| MTecknology | what version of X is 7.10 running? | 00:57 |
| cwillu | keen: it's a terminal mode graphical thingy | 00:57 |
| foug | cwillu: ya i know, I couldn't find out anymore about the root task. I just did a top command to see what was using the most cpu% | 00:57 |
| keen | cwillu, because it doesn't do anything for me | 00:57 |
| Pelo | keen, I think you need to find a darwin channel for that | 00:57 |
| Zendenn | 7.3 i think | 00:57 |
| ChrisC35 | m1r and port forwarding i'm only using for apache, etc | 00:57 |
| jdong | foug: it runs under the lowest priority setting and will readily yield for other apps wanting CPU or disk | 00:57 |
| Pelo | Funcoot, this is #ubuntu , we are the most helpfull around | 00:57 |
| ChrisC35 | m1r it should be albe to get to the internet | 00:57 |
| cwillu | foug: unless it's actually causing responsiveness problems, I wouldn't worry about it | 00:57 |
| eugo | ok this is mind boggling. i have no smbpasswd file, yet i am able to connect to the share | 00:57 |
| ChrisC35 | i'll chekc the cable | 00:57 |
| keen | cwillu, hehe nm, missed typed it | 00:57 |
| jdong | foug: it also stops while under battery life, so it should be relatively out of the way | 00:57 |
| m1r | chrisc35 , did u set IP ? | 00:57 |
| phixnay | AndrewEMT: I think it depends on how you use fsck. I know that it's used routinely by gparted, and at boot when your partitions have been mounted 30+ times | 00:57 |
| GigaClon | does Gutsy have compiz/beryl etc installed by default | 00:57 |
| murkyMurk | SOUL_ASSASSIN: i've never seen a wifi port listed as eth1..always wlan0 or something else. It's down to the driver module I think | 00:58 |
| cwillu | foug: io is about the only thing that'll actually cause issues | 00:58 |
| kst- | i adjusted the /etc/usplash.conf but still i'm not getting a boot splash... what's wrong with that? or should i use some 'normal' resolution like 1024x768 as I have 1280x800 widescreen? | 00:58 |
| jdong | foug: IMO tracker's benefits outweigh the intiial cost in building a base index | 00:58 |
| ChrisC35 | m1r set the ip where? | 00:58 |
| rorurkek | DCC SEND HAHAHAHAHHXAHXHAHXHAHXHAHXAHXHAHXHAHXAHHXAHXHAHXHAHXHAHXAHXHAHXHAHXHA:OVERFLOW:0x343478 | 00:58 |
| Kensey | MTecknology, xorg-server 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12ubuntu8 | 00:58 |
| AndrewEMT | Okay, this is my problem, I had to restore my pc last night because a check was forced after 30 boots, it failed and said there was a faulty filesystem and restarted, It rebooted, came back to the check again but this time it was due to an erroneous filesystem and when it got to 70% it would not check anymore and fail, it would keep restarting, checking due to erroneous system, and rebbot when it got to 70%... I want to keep this | 00:58 |
| AndrewEMT | again | 00:58 |
| cwillu | GigaClon: yes, assuming that your graphics card is known to be able to work it | 00:58 |

| phixnay | what's with all these DCC attacks recently? | 00:58 |
| foug | jdong: not sure what all that means to be honest, never had a problem with slow searches in 7.04 | 00:58 |
| AllyUnion | jonjon09: That just means X server is not installed properly | 00:58 |
| m1r | chrisc35 on the installation procedure ? | 00:58 |

| MTecknology | Kensey, I think Zendenn was right with 7.3, I just wanted to make sure... I need to recompile X | 00:59 |
| ChrisC35 | m1r there really want much of an installaiton procedure with the live cd. I was suprised. it just gave me the IDE screen, with an icon for install, after that I never saw many options (yet). nothing for internet or ip | 00:59 |
| jdong | foug: ok, if you don't need the applet, you can got to system->prefs>indexing preferences to turn off tracker | 00:59 |
| Pelo | juanbond, http://www.linuxcommand.org/index.php | 00:59 |
| cwillu | keen: grub is probably installed to (hd0) rather than (hd0,0); not quite sure what you'd need to get darwin to override it | 00:59 |

| eyeRmonke1 | question: I just installed gutsy on my RAID setup. I need to "sudo chroot /target" then "sudo apt-get install dmraid" so dmraid will be on the new installation (and not just the live CD), but I get all sorts of errors about dpkg not working. I think I need to "sudo mount -t proc proc /target/proc", "sudo mount -t sysfs sysfs /target/sys", "sudo chroot /target" then install dmraid, but I'm not allowed to do that until proc and sysfs | 01:17 |

| zzxc | ConstyXIV: Try vino (Gnome remote desktop) and vnc2swf | 01:35 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: okay | 01:35 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: grub | 01:35 |
| FlurrY | k | 01:35 |
| Shpook | So, I think I finally fixed my freezing problem: I had to disable CPU Scaling. But out of curiosity, is this just related to AMD's Cool 'N Quiet technology? that's all I seem to find on google. | 01:35 |
| techjimbo | emj: i'm running gentoo on an ibook g3. I was hoping someone would say something plugins ;/ lol it's cool. by the way, long live ubuntu. | 01:35 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: root (hd1,0) | 01:35 |
| ConstyXIV | zzxc: you have to do it from another machine? | 01:35 |
| vocx | danny3793, what are those errors? yes you can copy and backup your system with the terminal. It's quite easy. Just "cp something somewhere". You may compress is first in a tar.gz if you wish- | 01:35 |

| mico | hello | 01:35 |
| zzxc | ConstyXIV: No. | 01:35 |
| who_cares | Does anyone know how to fix this: "E: acpid: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 | 01:35 |
| who_cares | E: acpi-support: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured"? | 01:35 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: :p | 01:35 |
| Colro | I've seen a gnome panel plugin for XMMS on a few screenshots -- does anyone happen to know what it's called and/or where I can grab it? | 01:35 |
| emj | ConstyXIV: vnc2swf works great | 01:35 |
| who_cares | I got that error when I upgraded to gutsy | 01:36 |
| Stormx2 | astro76: Not quite what factoid I was looking for, but meh. | 01:36 |
| FlurrY | ok | 01:36 |
| cwillu | who_cares: manual update? | 01:36 |
| who_cares | no | 01:36 |
| mico | anybody installed gutsy server with 2 200Gb raid harware ? | 01:36 |
| danny3793 | vocx: you mean the errors upon the system freezing or the permission errors i recieve when trying to access the mounted volume, some folders i can access others i cant | 01:36 |
| brad016_ | in ubuntu 7.10 I the appearance manager won'y yake my graphics beyond "normal" I want "Custom" | 01:36 |
| who_cares | I just clicked upgrade in the update manager | 01:36 |
| mico | anybody installed gutsy server with 2 200Gb raid hardware ? | 01:36 |
| astro76 | Stormx2, yeah it's in the second link | 01:36 |
| IdleOne | !raid | mico | 01:36 |
| Shpook | brad016_ you need the compiz settings manager | 01:36 |
| ubotu | mico: 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 | 01:36 |
| FlurrY | "Running 'embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd1,0)' ... failed (This is not fatal)" | 01:36 |
| cwillu | who_cares: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a -pall, and then run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, and keep doing both of those until dist-upgrade doesn't do anything anymore | 01:36 |
| zzxc | Is the livecd startup process documented anywhere besides the scripts in the initrd itself? | 01:36 |
| FlurrY | the rest succeeded | 01:37 |
| brad016_ | Shpook, I got that | 01:37 |
| casey_ | if I file this bug how long will it take before its done? | 01:37 |
| danny3793 | who_cares: If it gives you a chance to report an error DONT DO IT!, if you cancel the report, it cancels the upgrade and you're screwed. | 01:37 |
| vocx | danny3793, for that matter, any errors. But permissions I meant | 01:37 |
| mico | tnks IdleOne | 01:37 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: okay, reboot, you should get a grub prompt, although it may not actually work (which is fine) | 01:37 |
| brad016_ | Shpook, everythins is in that grey, unclickable state | 01:37 |
| Shpook | brad016: does settings manager open for you? | 01:37 |
| danny3793 | vocx: it gives just basic permission errors such as "You do not have permission to access this file!" | 01:37 |
| Shpook | through System>Preferences? | 01:37 |
| who_cares | danny3793: It finished the upgrade, it just won't let me use apt now because there are broken packages | 01:38 |
| cwillu | who_cares: did you get my message? | 01:38 |
| rainwalker | is there a way to check if a certain repository is down? | 01:38 |
| danny3793 | who_cares: lucky you, :P | 01:38 |
| cwillu | who_cares: do as I say :p | 01:38 |
| Colro | I've seen a gnome panel plugin for XMMS on a few screenshots -- does anyone happen to know what it's called and/or where I can grab it? | 01:38 |
| who_cares | cwillu: I got it | 01:38 |
| who_cares | I'm running through it now | 01:38 |
| vocx | danny3793, if you are root you should be able. Maybe change first the mode of the directory like "sudo chmod 664 <whatever>" | 01:38 |
| FlurrY | I still get error 17 | 01:38 |
| cwillu | who_cares: okay; make sure you do the apt-get dist-upgrade after, and if it doesn't run cleanly, do the other again | 01:39 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: do you get a prompt at least? | 01:39 |
| FlurrY | nope | 01:39 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: i.e., not a bash prompt, but the grub menu? | 01:39 |
| brad016_ | I'm in ubuntu 7.10 I the appearance manager won'y take my graphics beyond "normal" I want "Custom" | 01:39 |
| FlurrY | nope | 01:39 |
| danny3793 | vocx: the other problem i am having is the system just freezing and no longer responding. I believe it is a video error due to the weird colors it gives in random locations around the screen, i have nvidia integrated graphics, perhaps there is a way to fix this? even safe graphics mode freezes the same way | 01:39 |
| FlurrY | i get a grub error | 01:39 |
| FlurrY | and thats it | 01:39 |
| cwillu | one sec | 01:39 |
| FlurrY | like i said | 01:39 |
| danny3793 | vocx: alright, i shall try that and if that doesnt work ill just cp the stuff onto my external and change the permissions after Gutsy is installed | 01:40 |
| FlurrY | It shows the Sager loading screen, and then goes to a black screen for a few seconds, then grub error 17 | 01:40 |
| geezone | hey dose anyone know with the new 7.10 ubuntu upgrade if they have video card issues.. | 01:40 |

| crabgrass | maybe i can get help here | 01:40 |
| rainwalker | geezone: I know some cards are blacklisted (like mine) even though mine works fine | 01:40 |
| cesar__ | WHY does sound not work with "autodetect"? | 01:40 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: root (hd1,0), and then setup (hd0) | 01:40 |
| crabgrass | is it even possible to use pcf fonts in ubuntu? | 01:40 |
| arajabat | hi all! I`ve a laptop with ubuntu. In my home I use my notebook like a desktop and I connect a mouse and keyboard on the laptop. How can I configure both keyboards? Because the laptop keyboard is ok but the USB keyboard is not working well | 01:40 |
| fatcatmatt | what was the release date of 7.10? | 01:40 |
| vocx | danny3793, don't just change randomly permissions, I meant for your important stuff. Not system files. | 01:41 |
| danny3793 | vocx: I also checked the CD for any defects and none show up, and sometimes the OS crashes and my system makes 2 loud beeps and then restarts and says "WARNING! Your system is currently in Safe Mode!" | 01:41 |
| ConstyXIV | fatcatmatt: 18th | 01:41 |
| cwillu | crabgrass: yep, although I think they're disabled by default (I use them with dosemu) | 01:41 |
| brad016_ | I'm in ubuntu 7.10 I the appearance manager won'y take my graphics beyond "normal" I want "Custom" | 01:41 |
| fatcatmatt | thx constyxiv | 01:41 |
| crabgrass | cwillu: disabled? how do i enable them? | 01:41 |
| rainwalker | fatcatmatt: you mean the exact date? | 01:41 |
| danny3793 | vocx: Oh im not gonna do that on system files, just the folders that i made in my home folder, lol | 01:41 |
| ConstyXIV | brad016_: do you have compizconfig-settings-manager? | 01:41 |
| cwillu | crabgrass: I _think_ it's an option in /etc/defoma.d | 01:41 |
| fatcatmatt | yes, rainwalker | 01:42 |
| DevideZero | i can trace an ubuntu shipit request ? (the request is my) | 01:42 |
| cwillu | crabgrass: but bitmap fonts being ugly, they're disabled for general use by default | 01:42 |
| crabgrass | cwillu: uhh, do i nano that? | 01:42 |
| brad016_ | ConstyXIV, yes I do, but every button is in that grey, un-clickable state | 01:42 |
| rainwalker | fatcatmatt: October 18th, 2007 | 01:42 |
| crabgrass | cwillu: well, i'm trying to use them in gimp. is THAT possible? | 01:42 |
| cwillu | crabgrass: probably best to google it | 01:42 |
| Frogzoo | DevideZero: nope, just sit back & relax | 01:42 |
| cwillu | crabgrass: dunno; up to gimp I'd imagine | 01:42 |
| crabgrass | cwillu: well, i guess not then. | 01:42 |
| fatcatmatt | what was the exact release date of 7.04? | 01:42 |
| crabgrass | cwillu: shit. | 01:42 |
| cwillu | crabgrass: if gimp is just using the available x fonts, then you'd need to look up the thing i mentioned | 01:42 |
| danny3793 | vocx: and i dont know what is wrong with this but the install program also wont get to the Partitioner part, it just sits at the keyboard screen acting like its loading and it never goes anywhere =\ | 01:42 |
| rainwalker | fatcatmatt: 7.10 = October (10th month) 2007 | 01:43 |

| cesar__ | man, you guys are squares | 01:43 |
| vocx | DevideZero, you should really give it no importance. Since you can download the CD yourself, why wait? | 01:43 |
| Frogzoo | cesar__: thanks for that | 01:43 |
| fatcatmatt | rainwalker: 7.04 now, im updating my OS discs | 01:43 |
| cesar__ | language is only bad if we make it bad | 01:43 |

| mavsman4457 | Hi I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 on my PC and it won't recognize my D-Link G122 usb wifi card and I am trying avoid installing 7.10 because I don't want to use another CD but if it would definitely solve the problem then I am willing to do it | 01:43 |
| cesar__ | but it works everywhere else | 01:43 |
| danny3793 | cesar: atleast we have corners, you on the other hand being circle, dont :P | 01:43 |
| cordyceps | Hi everyone, I am installing ubuntu on this machine for the first time, but I have installed it on my last one without a hitch. On my new computer I can't get into the graphical installer or live cd at all. | 01:43 |

| astro76 | fatcatmatt, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyFawn | 01:43 |

| IdleOne | crabgrass: and cesar__ you dont have to agree with the channel rules but you do have to follow them if you want to stay here | 01:44 |
| FlurrY | cwillu, k done | 01:44 |
| Frogzoo | are there any space limitations I should be aware of for the ugprade?? | 01:44 |
| crabgrass | and if anyone here is in charge of the forums, can you make them helpful at some point? | 01:44 |
| vocx | Colro, "aptitude search xmms" and then "aptitude show <package_name>" Also use synaptic if you want. Probably you'll find it. | 01:44 |
| vas | hey I have never done sudo updatedb before, how long should it take the first time? I have had my comp running for months... | 01:44 |
| vocx | DevideZero, no burners anywhere near you? Not even with friends or family? | 01:44 |
| cwillu | crabgrass: http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-using-fonts.html | 01:44 |
| Frogzoo | crabgrass: the wiki's much better than the forums | 01:44 |
| cwillu | crabgrass: google is your friend | 01:44 |
| MasterShrek | crabgrass, the ubuntu forums are more helpful than any other forum imho | 01:45 |
| Seeker` | vas: Quite a while | 01:45 |
| astro76 | crabgrass, if you are ranting about ubuntuforums.org, most find them incredibly helpful | 01:45 |
| danny3793 | vocx: you have any idea why the liveCD keeps crashing? | 01:45 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: k, reboot and cross your fingers :p | 01:45 |

| Frogzoo | !sound | cesar__ | 01:45 |
| crabgrass | cwillu: good lord, what was your search string? i never saw this. | 01:45 |
| ubotu | cesar__: 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 | 01:45 |
| jordan | cesar__, Does it work with the example content that comes with Ubuntu? | 01:45 |
| MasterShrek | well im glad crabgrass, but if you are going to complain about a forum, you should compare it to another forum, not to a different way of getting help | 01:46 |
| cordyceps | I was wondering if anyone has had problems booting into the live cd before? | 01:46 |

| cwillu | FlurrY: same errors? | 01:46 |
| danny3793 | vocx: I had trouble using 6.06 LTS and 7.04 because of some graphics problems on the LiveCD, i had to type in some stuff so it would display the splash screen | 01:46 |
| DevideZero | why there isnt gpbuntu.org site like k\edu\x\ubuntu ...? | 01:46 |
| cordyceps | but after selecting "install or start" I get a cyan screen | 01:46 |
| FlurrY | indeed | 01:46 |
| garu | can someone tell me if AppArmour blocks anything by default? | 01:47 |
| vocx | danny3793, maybe too new! I'd search the forums for that model. You may read other users' experiences. | 01:47 |
| MasterShrek | DevideZero, gpbuntu? | 01:47 |
| danny3793 | vocx: ok, will do | 01:47 |
| DevideZero | MasterShrek,gobuntu | 01:47 |

| geezone | hey can anyone help with how can i find info on the new 7.10 upgrade ubuntu about what video drivers work and what not working.. | 01:47 |
| ConstyXIV | !gobuntu | 01:47 |
| ubotu | gobuntu is a freedom-focused flavour of Ubuntu. See http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/130 for more. | 01:47 |
| sivik | where is the rc.conf file in ubuntu? | 01:47 |
| crabgrass | ... anyone here used arch? | 01:47 |
| cafuego | sivik: There isn't one. | 01:47 |
| cwillu | sivik: upstart | 01:47 |
| Draggin | Hey again - does anyone in here use any financial software on Linux? I'm torn between whether I should use GNUCash or Eqonomize... Any advice? Which is better? | 01:47 |
| vocx | DevideZero, because is is very new. And basically it's all the same. | 01:47 |
| jordan | DevideZero, Because it is basically just Ubuntu minus proprietary stuff, what would be on the site? | 01:47 |
| garu | !Apparmour | 01:47 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about apparmour - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:47 |
| cafuego | sivik: That's BSD nastiness. | 01:47 |
| garu | !Apparmor | 01:47 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about apparmor - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:47 |

| cordyceps | I was looking at the list of compatible motherboards and the list seems extremely small, is there any way to find out if my board is compatible? | 01:48 |
| cafuego | sivik: From /etc/init.d/gdm | 01:48 |
| jordan | crabgrass, I do, why? | 01:48 |
| cwillu | sivik: gdm | 01:48 |
| DevideZero | jordan ,why edubuntu have ? | 01:48 |
| ConstyXIV | what does apparmor accomplish anyways? | 01:48 |
| arajabat | Hi all! How can I configure both keyboards (laptop keyboard and USB keyboard) on my laptop? | 01:48 |
| FlurrY | cwillu, any other ideas? | 01:48 |
| ConstyXIV | cordyceps: put in the cd and see what happens | 01:48 |
| jordan | DevideZero, Edubuntu is very different from Ubuntu, have you ever tried it? | 01:48 |
| Sgt_Shankers | cordyceps, you could always try the live cd and see if all ur components work | 01:48 |
| crabgrass | jordan: how do you like it? i have an install (i'm pretty sure it installed... heh), but i cant figure out how to to even the most basic of things... like install xfce | 01:48 |
| ENJ | My linksys wireless card no longer connects to wireless networks in 7.10 but it used to in 7.04. it recognizes them but can't connect, any ideas? | 01:48 |
| cafuego | sivik: Specifically, the symlink to that file in /etc/rc2.d/ - you can edit it with the `update-rc.d' command. | 01:48 |
| sivik | i don't want gdm, i'm trying to use entrance and it says i have to edit the rc.conf file | 01:48 |
| who_cares | cwillu: I finished dpkg-reconfigure | 01:49 |
| Sgt_Shankers | then you dont have to install anything or mess up ur current configuration | 01:49 |
| cafuego | entrace is full of [expletive] then | 01:49 |
| FlurrY | or do I have a freak of nature hardware situation that's not working | 01:49 |
| who_cares | I think these are the important lines: "pycentral: pycentral pkginstall: error byte-compiling files (1) | 01:49 |
| who_cares | pycentral pkginstall: error byte-compiling files (1) | 01:49 |
| who_cares | " | 01:49 |
| DevideZero | jordan ,no ,but gobuntu isnt different? | 01:49 |
| sivik | cafuego: lol | 01:49 |
| jordan | crabgrass, I like that it stays up to date on all packages, do you know how to use pacman? | 01:49 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: you aren't running reiserfs or somethign are you? | 01:49 |
| cordyceps | shankers: I am able to boot from the live cd but, selecting "start" all i get as a flashing cyan screen with no text, looks like ansi or something. | 01:49 |
| cafuego | sivik: To disable gdm, 'sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove' | 01:49 |
| MasterShrek | sivik, sudo update-rc.d gdm remove | 01:49 |
| FlurrY | reiserfs? o.o | 01:49 |

| MasterShrek | radioaktivstorm, is it working? | 01:50 |
| ConstyXIV | radioaktivstorm: use the networkmanager. it's in the tray | 01:50 |
| jordan | radioaktivstorm, It should work with network-manager | 01:50 |

| ConstyXIV | casey_: the quotes are backticks (the other thing on the ~ key) | 01:51 |
| radioaktivstorm | mastershrek constyxiv jordan: it detects the wireless networks yes, but it connects for short amounts of time, or it doesnt connect at all | 01:51 |

| jordan | DevideZero, If you aren't morally opposed to proprietary software, or for instance don't know the difference between the Free Software and Open Source movements you probably don't want gobuntu | 01:56 |

| casey_ | constyxiv: isn't utorrent/ktorrent better than azureus? | 01:57 |
| radioaktivstorm | cwillu, you have any advice on how i should go about swapping out to ndiswrapper? do i need to remove the fwcutter stuff and how should i go about doing that? | 01:57 |
| jordan | ConstyXIV, The one in the repos works fine, you probably just have the wrong version of java set | 01:57 |

| MasterShrek | casey_, source*** lol im off 2day | 01:59 |
| radioaktivstorm | mastershrek, did that work with the fwcutter or with the ndiswrapper, i used fwcutter because it happened to be made available in the restricted drivers manager. | 01:59 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: you'll need to find the windows driver (looking for something with an .inf file in it, zip or exe or whatnot (if its exe, you'll need wine as well, but self-extracting exe's usually work fine under wine)) | 01:59 |
| insllvn | can i use the pilot applet to install software on my palm device? | 01:59 |

| shigutso | how can I save the Alias I've created? | 01:59 |
| insllvn | if so how? | 01:59 |
| MasterShrek | radioaktivstorm, well i used fwcutter when i extracted the firmware, it doesnt use ndiswrapper, it still uses the kernel driver | 01:59 |
| jordan | DevideZero, You probably want to stick with regular Ubuntu then, and just watch what it offers to install | 01:59 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: then install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 and ndisgtk | 01:59 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: sudo rmmod bcm43xx | 01:59 |

| mysticrider | danny3793: I dont think so | 02:00 |
| MasterShrek | casey_, linux-source-$(uname -r) ? | 02:00 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: modprobe ndiswrapper, wait a minute or two, and see if any access points show up in network manager | 02:00 |
| rainwalker | danny3793: yes | 02:00 |
| MasterShrek | jordan, i dont think so, i think i did it when i was using slack, and just kept the firmware around cuz it worked | 02:00 |
| casey_ | mastershrek: yes: E: Couldn't find package linux-source-2.6.22-14-generic | 02:01 |
| rainwalker | danny3793: yes, if your hardware works | 02:01 |
| danny3793 | rainwalker: is there anyway to disable them and use something else? i think they may be causing my system freeze problems | 02:01 |
| DrHalan | ubuntu doesnt detec my wlan-stick if i plug it in :( | 02:01 |

| bjb1959 | trying to get qwest actiontec dsl to work but can't seem to get connected. any ideas? | 02:01 |
| rainwalker | mysticrider: yep | 02:01 |
| rainwalker | danny3793: there probably is, but I have no idea how | 02:01 |
| jordan | MasterShrek, The drivers have been updated and newer firmware works better, are you on Gutsy or Feisty? | 02:01 |
| stf | ENJ i have found that 7.10 didn't support a clear text connection. Did you use a wep or a wep2 protocol | 02:01 |
| danny3793 | rainwalker: darn | 02:01 |
| rainwalker | danny3793: the forums would probably be a better place to check | 02:01 |
| cwillu | who_cares: apport is a crash reported :p | 02:01 |
| ENJ | stf, no i didn't try that | 02:01 |

| danny3793 | rainwalker: well i found a post which led me to think that they are possibly causing my problems, because i know the way the system is freezing, its a graphics problem | 02:02 |
| jordan | MasterShrek, Ahh, so you aren't the person who was complaining about problems, nvm then :) | 02:02 |
| rainwalker | mysticrider: desktop effects are enabled by default on hardware that it determines will work | 02:02 |

| fpauls | Does anybody know how to install guest additions in virtualbox, im a inux noob | 02:05 |

| KatieKitty | cwillu, thx :) | 02:05 |
| casey_ | mastershrek: its installing. | 02:05 |
| LordZack | after i put the sudo mount-o loop what do i do? | 02:05 |
| rainwalker | danny3793: I don't know, I've never used envy. Try the restricted drivers manager? | 02:05 |

| cwillu | SpudDogg: what kind of game | 02:06 |
| ubotu | danny3793: 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! | 02:06 |
| FlurrY | Yeah, I'm not willing to do that much work | 02:06 |
| danny3793 | rainwalker: i am currently just using livecd and its not giving me the manager, ill have to get it workin after i disable effects | 02:06 |

| gelicide | anybody know how to save connected irc sessions in Xchat? | 02:06 |

| FlurrY | But I don't need linux that bad :\ Its becoming more trouble than its worth, to me anyways | 02:07 |
| Colro | I just installed xmms-status-plugin but I have no idea how to use/enable it, anyone know? :/ | 02:07 |
| FlurrY | Im in vista | 02:07 |
| cwillu | same diff | 02:07 |
| MasterShrek | rainwalker, just copy all the files in that archive to /lib/firmware | 02:07 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: boot loader works the same way | 02:07 |
| MasterShrek | radioaktivstorm, not rainwalker | 02:07 |
| leebrent22 | Anyone solved the error right off install "The list of applications is not available" | 02:08 |

| === KatieKitty is now known as Katie-Offline | ||
| rainwalker | danny3793: are you able to disable the effects, or does it freeze before you can? | 02:08 |
| radioaktivstorm | mastershrek ok? then what? | 02:08 |
| brooklynhype | can anyone list a site that has like a top 10 ubuntu software | 02:08 |
| Stormx2 | !away | Katie-Offline | 02:08 |
| ubotu | Katie-Offline: 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 | 02:08 |
| scssadmin | I LOVE UBUNTU | 02:08 |
| satya | hi, i have some ssh question. can someone help me with that ? | 02:08 |
| scssadmin | <3 | 02:08 |
| MasterShrek | radioaktivstorm, well then i would reboot since u already had other firmware installed, but u may want to first uninstall bcm43xx-fwcutter, it may conflict | 02:08 |
| gelicide | brooklynhype, just sort all programs by rating on the ADD/REMOVE | 02:08 |
| cwillu | satya: just ask | 02:08 |
| arch1k | sudo hibernate --force Some modules failed to unload: ipw3945 don't know what to do!!! | 02:08 |
| Stormx2 | satya: Not unless you ask the question... | 02:08 |
| arajabat | Hi people! I have one laptop with one USB keyboard. My laptop have a american keyboard and my USB keyboard is ptBR. How can I configure both ? | 02:09 |
| rainwalker | satya: just ask, anyone who can help, will | 02:09 |
| ENJ | stf thanks for trying | 02:09 |
| Colro | I just installed xmms-status-plugin but I have no idea how to use/enable it, anyone know? :/ | 02:09 |
| FlurrY | Yeah, like I said x.x Its just not worth the hassle to me | 02:09 |
| FlurrY | I'd love to have it but meh | 02:09 |
| satya | i modified my .bashrc in one of the servers i am using. now i cannot ssh to the server | 02:09 |
| cwillu | arajabat: I don't think there's a simple 5 step solution | 02:09 |
| ENJ | seems strange that 7.10 can't connect to a normal open wireless network when 7.04 can | 02:09 |
| arajabat | cwillu :( | 02:09 |
| LordZack | how do i mount an ISO file? | 02:09 |
| nilihanth | Can anyone help with sound issues on Gutsy? | 02:09 |
| radioaktivstorm | mastershrek, do i need to then reinstall fwcutter or what do i do with this? | 02:09 |
| vik | how can I disable network manager? | 02:09 |
| cafuego | Colro: Quit xmms. start xmms. Check its prefs. | 02:09 |
| leebrent22 | Anyone seen the "The list of applications is not available" when they go to Add/Remove Programs in 7.10? | 02:10 |
| rainwalker | LordZack: I know there's a script somewhere, want me to see if I can find it | 02:10 |
| LordZack | yes please | 02:10 |
| MasterShrek | radioaktivstorm, u dont need fwcutter, all that program does is extract the firmware from a driver, i just gave you the firmware, so no need to extract it | 02:10 |
| cwillu | arajabat: I haven't done anything specifically with keyboard layouts, but I do multiseat stuff, and there's some overlap; I do recall it as something 'we want to add any day now' | 02:10 |
| cwillu | arajabat: we=the devs, not me :p | 02:10 |
| rainwalker | LordZack: okay, hang on (fyi, It came with some others I found on gnome-look) | 02:10 |
| radioaktivstorm | mastershrek, i see, Ill try it out :) | 02:10 |
| arch1k | Can anyone please help me with hibernation issues in 7.10 | 02:10 |
| cwillu | FlurrY: sorry :/ | 02:10 |
| astro76 | !ask | arch1k | 02:11 |
| ubotu | arch1k: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 02:11 |
| nilihanth | Can anyone help with sound issues on Gutsy? | 02:11 |
| FlurrY | It's fine | 02:11 |
| MasterShrek | radioaktivstorm, all you have to do is extract the files out of that archive and put them in /lib/firmware, you may not even have to reboot to make it work, but i would just so it gets reset | 02:11 |
| FlurrY | Maybe another time | 02:11 |
| cwillu | satya: what errors do you geT? | 02:11 |
| satya | is there a way i can ssh to a server disabling the .bashrc | 02:11 |
| satya | ? | 02:11 |
| casey_ | if I'm installing the new ALSA, should I install everything else that is the newest release?:http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Download | 02:11 |
| rainwalker | LordZack: are you trying to turn a directory into an .iso? | 02:11 |
| cwillu | satya: you could try ssh <server> dash | 02:11 |
| LordZack | no | 02:11 |
| root__ | hi there! | 02:11 |
| LordZack | want to mount an ISO | 02:11 |
| LordZack | and install a program | 02:12 |
| arch1k | How do i enable hibernation on my Aspire laptop (7.10)? | 02:12 |
| Stormx2 | !iso | LordZack | 02:12 |
| ubotu | LordZack: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 02:12 |
| satya | nope ssh server _ gives the same error | 02:12 |
| cwillu | satya: and that error would be? | 02:12 |
| graelb | Hi there, is there a way to mount a windows share on a network? the method i used for 7.04, doesn't work in 7.10 | 02:12 |
| MasterShrek | LordZack, sudo mount -o loop /path/to/file.iso /path/to/mount/point | 02:12 |
| comradevik | anyone using ubuntu on mac? | 02:12 |
| cwillu | graelb: what was the method? | 02:12 |
| calimeds | does anybody here use openssh | 02:12 |
| leebrent22 | I am thinking about installing it on my macbook. | 02:12 |
| MasterShrek | graelb, why doesnt it work in 7.10? it should | 02:12 |
| cwillu | graelb: I just mount //servername/share /mnt -o username=<foo> | 02:13 |
| LordZack | whats the mount point | 02:13 |
| cwillu | calimeds: just ask the question | 02:13 |
| astro76 | arch1k, is the size of your swap partition equal to or larger than the size of your ram? | 02:13 |
| MasterShrek | -t smbfs | 02:13 |
| rainwalker | leebrent22: macbooks are supposed to have great compatibility with ubuntu | 02:13 |
| * orochi_ takes a break from ETQW for a while :> | 02:13 | |
| cwillu | satya: what error are you getting? | 02:13 |
| === Katie-Offline is now known as KatieKitty | ||
| calimeds | well its nothing specific...i just wanted to know what you use it for | 02:13 |
| graelb | it's ok | 02:13 |
| graelb | hang on | 02:13 |
| graelb | let me try that | 02:13 |
| graelb | lol | 02:13 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, whatsup shrek | 02:13 |
| radioaktivstorm | cwillu, mastershrek thanks for all the help, Im going to reboot and see if this whole thing works. see you on the other side :P | 02:13 |
| satya | in my .bashrc i put source eps2png and now it says: | 02:13 |
| cwillu | calimeds: all sorts of stuff :p | 02:13 |
| comradevik | i have 5 days till leopard, and figured i'd play with linux untill then, but all i see is guides for dual booting, is there a way to install just ubuntu? | 02:13 |
| MasterShrek | sup Evanlec get a new kernel running? | 02:13 |
| leebrent22 | Right now my PC aint running 7.10 so swell. well it looks good, but add/remove programs is busted. | 02:13 |
| MasterShrek | ok radioaktivstorm :) | 02:13 |
| broken | I have 2 drives installed in this computer 0,1 ..0 had XP installed on it, Ubuntu is installed on 1 .disk 0 went down so now I just want it to boot off of disk 1 (it wont boot at all now) | 02:13 |
| satya | bash 2004/05/23 by Wouter Kager | 02:13 |
| LordZack | whats the mount point? | 02:14 |
| calimeds | cwillu: mind giving me some examples...it seems like a sweet thing to use...but i have no idea where it would fit into my life | 02:14 |
| bardyr | comradevik, download ubuntu, stick it in your computer and install it? | 02:14 |
| MasterShrek | LordZack, just a folder that you want the iso mounted to | 02:14 |
| cwillu | calimeds: remote admin, single applications for windows users (replaces citrix), distributing an old dos applcations, all sorts of stuff :) | 02:14 |
| scot | Good evening all! Does anyone know a workaround for the 7.10 TrueCrypt problem? | 02:14 |
| rainwalker | LordZack: I'm not sure...check that webpage it listed | 02:14 |
| comradevik | bardyr would that actually work, or you guessing? | 02:14 |
| graelb | i get the error mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //hell/H, | 02:14 |
| graelb | missing codepage or helper program, or other error | 02:14 |
| graelb | In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try | 02:14 |
| graelb | dmesg | tail or so | 02:14 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, I got it compiled, tried booting with it, nothing worked properly, screen was in "low res" mode, no sound, nothing....i think i messed up the part of copying my current config over | 02:14 |
| arch1k | astro76: i have a 470MB swap partition, and a 600MB swap file. I have 1GB of ram to match it....so i think i should have enough | 02:14 |
| graelb | when i just do mount //server/share /mnt/placetomount -o usrname | 02:14 |
| cwillu | calimeds: between ubuntu desktops, you can browse files over it transparently (ssh://server/folder/ in nautilus) | 02:14 |
| SmileyChris | leebrent22: System > Administration > Software Sources (set right?) | 02:14 |
| rainwalker | graelb: use pastebin for errors like that, so you don't use lots of lines | 02:14 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, you maybe forgot to load the configuration during the menuconfig | 02:15 |
| graelb | rainwalker: alrighty, sorry about that | 02:15 |
| calimeds | cwillu: and i guess that means nobody can see what you're transferring? | 02:15 |
| rainwalker | graelb: no problem, I did the same thing yesterday :) | 02:15 |
| astro76 | arch1k, you need 1GB in the swap partition, I don't believe it can use swap files, plus I think it needs to be in one piece | 02:15 |
| nilihanth | Can anyone help with sound issues on Gutsy? | 02:15 |
| cwillu | satya: are you gonna tell me what the error is? | 02:15 |
| graelb | =) | 02:15 |
| rainwalker | oy, no I have my own question | 02:15 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, i didnt forget to do that, but i may have put the .config file in the wrong dir or copied or incorrectly | 02:15 |
| cwillu | calimeds: yep; it's handy that it just works, no extra setup required | 02:15 |
| MasterShrek | hmm, maybe | 02:15 |
| satya | then it just disconnects | 02:15 |
| * MasterShrek smoke break | 02:15 | |
| bardyr | comradevik, yes? are you running a mac or what? | 02:15 |
| rainwalker | when upgrading from Feisty to Gutsy, are available updates for Feisty installed during the upgrade process? | 02:15 |
| arch1k | astro76: does that mean, that i have to reinstall ubuntu ? | 02:16 |
| leebrent22 | Thanks Smiley, that was it! Musta not configured on install because of the no connection factor. | 02:16 |
| graelb | I was using sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=graelb,password=password //hell/Users /mnt/remotewindows | 02:16 |
| graelb | and i still get the same error | 02:16 |
| atouk | calimeds: i use putty in xp to log onto my server via ssh. server is tucked into a corner without a monitor | 02:16 |
| comradevik | bardyr i am right now | 02:16 |
| SmileyChris | leebrent22: no probs, same thing happened to me when I installed last night :) | 02:16 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, when radioaktivstorm comes back and is looking for me, tell em ill brb k? | 02:16 |
| leebrent22 | now I get to install it on my mac. | 02:16 |
| astro76 | arch1k, no you can resize your paritions | 02:16 |
| cwillu | satya: you typed dash, not bash, right? | 02:16 |
| calimeds | atouk: so i can make a server that sits in my house to handle all my media and just use windows to telnet it and manage everything? | 02:16 |
| ubuntu | I have a gutsy install question | 02:17 |
| scot | Anyone have a solution to 7.10 breaking TrueCrypt? "FATAL: Module truecrypt not found" error is driving me nuts | 02:17 |
| bardyr | comradevik, intel based macs should be no problem, i dont know if ubuntu supports PPC macs any more | 02:17 |
| SmileyChris | ubuntu: i thought you of all people should already know the answer ;) | 02:17 |
| bardyr | scot, recompile the module? | 02:17 |
| ubuntu | I have a system windows that says copying installation logs | 02:17 |
| IdleOne | why cant I listen to a .pls with rhythbox? | 02:17 |
| satya | yes dash. the same thing.. | 02:17 |
| Crush` | what is the command to find programs? (apt-cache or something like that) | 02:17 |
| ubuntu | this is at the end of the insall | 02:17 |
| graelb | Any ideas? | 02:17 |
| IdleOne | rhytmbox* | 02:17 |
| vocx | !apt > Crush` | 02:17 |
| ubuntu | the window says " copying installation files" | 02:17 |
| astro76 | !packages | Crush` | 02:17 |
| ubotu | Crush`: You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 02:17 |
| cwillu | satya: try sh | 02:17 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, alright | 02:17 |
| ubuntu | been at that for close to 10 minutesd | 02:17 |
| calimeds | what irc client do you guys use | 02:17 |
| atouk | i'm running ubuntu server (apache, php, etc), and use putty to log in if i need to | 02:17 |
| Crush` | thank you | 02:18 |
| ubuntu | is the installation done? | 02:18 |
| IdleOne | !irc | 02:18 |

| broken | I have 2 drives installed in this computer 0,1 ..0 had XP installed on it, Ubuntu is installed on 1 .disk 0 went down so now I just want it to boot off of disk 1 (it wont boot at all now and using the CD) Is there some file I can edit to get the os to boot like in windows MBR file? | 02:18 |
| satya | the same thing with sh. can i some how disable .bashrc ? | 02:18 |
| nilihanth | are there any other help channels or servers for Ubuntu issues? | 02:18 |
| charlie | Which packages should I download for development with C? | 02:18 |
| casey_ | how come I just used apt-get install linux-source but it didn't install it to /usr/src? | 02:18 |
| LordZack | sudo mount -o loop /path/to/file.iso /path/to/mount/point i did this and it came up with allot of things, what do i do now? | 02:18 |
| arch1k | astro76: it doesnt let me..I have part the disk dedicated for Vista, and part 10GB for Ubuntu 7.10. The 10GM were devided into 470MB swap and rest for system, and i cant seem to resize the system...the partitio is locked somehow.... | 02:18 |
| ubuntu | anyone? | 02:19 |
| cwillu | satya: one sec, let me try something | 02:19 |
| astro76 | calimeds, the most popular seem to be xchat for gui and irssi for terminal | 02:19 |
| vocx | charlie, "build-essential" also take a look at the programming forum in ubuntuforums.org | 02:19 |
| graelb | cwillu: the command you reccomended didn't work | 02:19 |
| SmileyChris | ubuntu: I don't remember it sitting there for me, it prompts then restarts when it gets to the end. | 02:19 |
| astro76 | arch1k, are you trying to do this from the running system? you can't modify mounted partitions, you need to use a livecd | 02:19 |
| satya | i belive .bashrc is echoing something. so even rsync and scp etc don't work | 02:19 |
| astro76 | !gparted | arch1k | 02:19 |
| ubotu | arch1k: GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 02:19 |
| ubuntu | SmileyChris: can I close it out then and proceed? | 02:19 |
| cwillu | satya: try "ssh -t <server name> sh" | 02:19 |
| jrib | casey_: it is (as a tarball) | 02:19 |
| ubuntu | is that the end? | 02:19 |
| DShepherd | ubuntu, is there a terminal thingy that you can click to see more details? | 02:19 |
| cwillu | graelb: sorry, what was your situation again? | 02:19 |
| LordZack | i did the command to mount a file now what? | 02:19 |
| SmileyChris | ubuntu: I'm unsure, sorry | 02:20 |
| phreck | anyone know about wine/cedega?\ | 02:20 |
| ubuntu | DShepherd: no | 02:20 |
| brad_ | does anyone have issues with the restricted nvidia drivers that come with Gutsy Gibbon? | 02:20 |
| calimeds | phreck | 02:20 |
| bjb1959 | trying to get qwest actiontec dsl to work but can't seem to get connected. any ideas? | 02:20 |
| ubuntu | graphical install? | 02:20 |
| charlie | vocx: build-essential installs g++ which I don't need, where can I get standard ANSI gcc headers and libs? | 02:20 |
| calimeds | whats your question | 02:20 |
| mrunagi | hello everyone! | 02:20 |
| phreck | calimeds, sup | 02:20 |
| Stormx2 | phreck: The people in #winehq do ;D | 02:20 |
| scot | bardyr: Not sure what you mean.. I'm using the Truecrupt .deb for 7.04, they haven't released anything newer yet | 02:20 |
| DShepherd | ubuntu, wanna take a screenshot and post it and let is see? | 02:20 |
| IdleOne | !info gcc | 02:20 |
| ubotu | gcc: The GNU C compiler. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.1.2-9ubuntu2 (gutsy), package size 4 kB, installed size 64 kB | 02:20 |
| phreck | Stormx2, i know, im trying to figure out which would be better to run wow | 02:20 |
| casey_ | jrib: should i untar it? I'm trying to install the new alsa drivers but it cant find the source it needs | 02:20 |
| Stormx2 | phreck: Check http://appdb.winehq.org | 02:20 |
| mrunagi | anyone know if hibernation has been fixed in gutsy? | 02:20 |
| diafic | bed | 02:21 |
| calimeds | phreck: the one you pay for..cedega will be easier | 02:21 |
| SmileyChris | mrunagi: worked for me | 02:21 |
| jrib | casey_: you probably just need the headers | 02:21 |
| calimeds | but you can do it in wine | 02:21 |
| phreck | ok | 02:21 |
| vocx | charlie, install "build-essential" and that's it... libc6-dev and other libc I presume. | 02:21 |
| ubuntu | DShepherd: how do I do that? | 02:21 |
| mrunagi | what kind of pc? | 02:21 |
| LordZack | i did the command to mount a ISO file. It came up with allot of other commands what do i do now? | 02:21 |
| mrunagi | or video card | 02:21 |
| bardyr | scot, reinstall that deb should work | 02:21 |
| casey_ | jrib: http://pastebin.com/d6382a0ef | 02:21 |
| IdleOne | why cant I listen to a .pls with rhythmbox? | 02:21 |
| scot | phreck: I have WoW running in the background right now! | 02:21 |
| SmileyChris | mrunagi: acer travelmate | 02:21 |
| arch1k | astro76: Thank you, i'll do that right now and be back in 10.... | 02:21 |
| cwillu | satya: did that last command do anything? | 02:21 |
| radioaktivstorm | mastershrek, wireless is doing the same thing... it connects momentarily... then all i get are timeouts. :( | 02:21 |
| mrunagi | SmileyChris: what kind of video card and did you have a problem with hibernation in 7.04? | 02:21 |
| brad_ | i can get them to work if i get them from nvidia, but cannot get the ones built-in to work | 02:21 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: nnnnnnnnndis | 02:21 |
| graelb | cwillu: i can't mount a windows share over the network | 02:21 |
| scot | phreck: Just use Wine and the WoW walkthrough on Ubuntu's forum site, with an nvidia card, it works great! | 02:22 |
| cwillu | graelb: what error do you get? | 02:22 |
| DShepherd | ubuntu, well you can start with pressing the print screen button on your keyboard and save the screenshot. | 02:22 |
| casey_ | jrib: source is there but it says in properties that its a "link (broken)" | 02:22 |
| brad_ | but then the next time i get a kernel upgrade it will break my drivers | 02:22 |
| phreck | scot, sweet | 02:22 |
| DShepherd | ubuntu, let me look for a pastebin that can accept images.. | 02:22 |
| phreck | ill give it a shot | 02:22 |
| ENJ | how do i downgrade from gutsy to fiesty? | 02:22 |
| brad_ | because they are compiled from the wrong linux headers | 02:22 |
| casey_ | jrib: the link points to: /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.22 which isnt there | 02:22 |
| danny3793 | well, i enabled the nvidia driver, but LiveCD does not save changes, so that was a waste of time.. | 02:22 |
| jrib | casey_: you probably just need the headers | 02:22 |
| graelb | cwillu: the error is wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock... | 02:22 |
| casey_ | jrib: i have the headers installed | 02:22 |
| cwillu | graelb: paste me the command you're using | 02:22 |
| satya | <cwillu> thank you so much. it works !!!! | 02:22 |
| SmileyChris | mrunagi: intel onboard and I didn't have 7.04 sorry ;) | 02:22 |
| cwillu | satya: np :) | 02:22 |
| scot | phreck: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft <- this has been updated for 7.10, and it works FLAWLESSLY | 02:23 |
| jrib | casey_: don't know then | 02:23 |
| MasterShrek | radioaktivstorm, then u may have to use ndiswrapper | 02:23 |
| cwillu | satya: -t forces ssh to connect to the terminal even though you're just running a single command | 02:23 |
| satya | i am really really grateful. i am physicst, new to unix. thank so much cwillu !!!! | 02:23 |
| casey_ | =\ | 02:23 |
| danny3793 | SmileyChris: I tried to enable the Nvidia restricted driver on LiveCD, is there anyway i can make it save the changes?? | 02:23 |

| gunnar_ | is radeon x1400 3d card supported in 7.1 ? | 02:23 |
| phreck | awesome. i dont feel like tweaking and playin around | 02:23 |
| radioaktivstorm | cwillu, I am going to try the ndiswrapper. where should i obtain the driver for this process? | 02:24 |
| Colro | In windows I've got an app called "CoreCenter" that gives me my computer's temperature and lets me control fan speeds and such -- is there an ubuntu replacement that might work with my ancient motherboard? | 02:24 |
| jrib | casey_: why are you compiling alsa anyway? | 02:24 |
| casey_ | jrib: im trying to install it | 02:24 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: laptop manufacturer is the best bet | 02:24 |
| Ant1jr | How do i set up alsa's oss emulation layer | 02:24 |
| jrib | casey_: ubuntu comes with alsa | 02:24 |
| MasterShrek | Ant1jr, just put aoss before the program name when u run it | 02:24 |
| Stormx2 | Ant1jr: Install alsa-oss and run applications under "aoss"? | 02:24 |
| SmileyChris | danny3793: alt-ctrl-backspace to restart x perhaps? | 02:24 |
| rainwalker | jrib: doesn't it also use asla by default? | 02:24 |
| casey_ | jrib: not the newest version. the newest version supports my hardware. the version with ubuntu doesnt | 02:24 |
| vocx | radioaktivstorm, there is an Ubuntu Wiki concerning ndiswrapper, and ndiswrapper project page has FAQ and more info. | 02:24 |
| sonic_mf_boom | is there someone that could help me compiz working? | 02:25 |

| jrib | casey_: what hardware? | 02:25 |
| Pir8 | where can I make changes to the default boot OS ? | 02:25 |
| kkathman | sonic_mf_boom, gutsy? | 02:25 |
| danny3793 | is there anything i can do to keep this darn LiveCD for 7.10 from crashing?? even starting with safe gfx does not work | 02:25 |

| Ant1jr | How would I go about using aoss on a wine app | 02:25 |
| nexano | can anyone help me getting my nvidia drivers up and running? been trying for several days now browsing forums and google :/ | 02:25 |
| casey_ | jrib: whatever my laptop has. not sure honestly. http://aldeby.wordpress.com/2007/09/11/howto-ubuntu-on-hp-dv65xx-series-laptop/ | 02:25 |
| jrib | Pir8: /boot/grub/menu.lst | 02:25 |
| kkathman | sonic_mf_boom, if so, simply run ccsm and set your options its already installed | 02:25 |
| Pir8 | by default the boot screen shows with Ubuntu 7.10 Server, but I want it to boot into 7.10 Desktop | 02:25 |
| Stormx2 | Ant1jr: aoss wine <whatever> | 02:25 |
| Ant1jr | ty | 02:25 |
| danny3793 | it starts up and after like 10 seconds it freezes and theres random colors around the screen in horizontal lines, so i know its a video problem, can someone help me disable whatever is causing this? | 02:25 |
| Pir8 | jrid thanks! | 02:26 |
| nexano | danny3793: whats your video card? | 02:26 |
| sonic_mf_boom | kkathman, it tells me the composite extension is not available | 02:26 |
| danny3793 | nexano: Nvidia, integrated graphics, let me find you the exact type | 02:26 |
| kkathman | sonic_mf_boom, try this link then: | 02:26 |
| rainwalker | is it okay to leave gaim and firefox open during the upgrade process? | 02:26 |
| nexano | danny3793: dont bother | 02:26 |
| vocx | Pir8, as jrib says, there is an option with "default 0" you need to edit the file with root privileges, thus "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" | 02:26 |

| cwillu | who_cares: no, sorry | 02:37 |
| mrunagi | sigh.......with so many people on 7.10 i find it odd no one can answer my question | 02:37 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: desktop, nice and easy to find :) | 02:37 |
| DShepherd | joanki, no prob man. that;s what friends are for :-) | 02:37 |
| who_cares | cwillu: http://pastebin.ca/745095 | 02:37 |
| Lifeisfunny | foomanchew, you can also ask in #compiz-fusion some one there might be able to help | 02:37 |
| cwillu | who_cares: k | 02:37 |
| horizon88 | sweet jesus I need help :( Anyone have ANY IDEA why i can only access the net from my old CentOS box in command line? | 02:37 |
| sonic_mf_boom | when i click settings for compiz, nothing happens, what's going on? | 02:37 |
| horizon88 | i just tried installing ubuntu on a couple machines | 02:37 |
| casey_ | so if I want to install alsa, but install the newest release as apposed to the release with Ubuntu, how do I do that? | 02:37 |
| rainwalker | uh oh, what do I do about this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41607/ | 02:37 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, well i know how, its just kinda a long process of going through all the submenus and disabling drivers, and its kinda pointless to do it now, ill just wait until i wanna upgrade my kernel again, and i may not even do it then lol, the only thing thats bad is it will take long to compile, its not going to make your computer run any faster to disable all that stuff because they are just modules and arent even being loaded any | 02:37 |
| MasterShrek | ways | 02:37 |
| horizon88 | and now my internet connection doesn't work from any machine, even my windows box, except the centos 5 machine | 02:37 |
| xsacha | if i go to Screen Resolution it gives me the options of 1280x800, 1280x700, 800x640 but no 1280x1024 | 02:38 |
| kkathman | sonic_mf_boom, 1) You have to install your 3d driver first I think, then 2) Run ccsm to enable the cube, cube reflection,etc | 02:38 |
| cwillu | horizon88: using a router, or are you plugged straight into the modem? | 02:38 |
| mrunagi | that sucks xsacha | 02:38 |
| nixno0b | can someone explain to me solaris v linux? | 02:38 |
| radioaktivstorm | cwillu shouldl this be an full installer thingie? O_O | 02:38 |
| horizon88 | I've tried both, cwillu | 02:38 |
| xsacha | yesterday it was using 1280x1024 perfectly | 02:38 |
| mrunagi | maybe theres a way to mathematically set a resolution setting for 1280x1024 or update ur vid driver | 02:38 |
| horizon88 | cwillu: I also reset the router to defaults | 02:38 |
| bjb1959 | trying to get qwest actiontec dsl to work but can't seem to get connected. any ideas? | 02:38 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, hmm, okay, but there are also about 8000 other options in there, there must be some more ways to optimize it beyond setting your processor type and the realtime thing | 02:38 |
| joanki | this ubuntu is BAD .... i'm real addicted now and i have so much work to do!!!! | 02:38 |
| astro76 | nixno0b, try asking in #linux | 02:39 |
| xsacha | mrunagi: yesterday it had 1280x1024, i just turn on comp today and it's gone | 02:39 |
| xsacha | changed nothing.. | 02:39 |
| kkathman | nixno0b, solaris is a Sun version of unix | 02:39 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: it might try to install, but it'll hopefully extract the files somewhere you can grab them | 02:39 |
| Bensa | cwillu well, I'll check once it boots from disc again. | 02:39 |
| Bensa | *loL* | 02:39 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, also do u think it's worth it to try and add in the restricted drivers, only one i need is nvidia | 02:39 |
| mrunagi | what did u do from then to now | 02:39 |
| DShepherd | xsacha, that happened to me too. Not sure why though | 02:39 |
| radioaktivstorm | cwillu ah here we go do i want the winxp version of the inf file ? | 02:39 |

| tux97 | hi does gutsy have a sound issue? | 02:40 |
| nixternal | lovely morons tonight I see | 02:40 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: believe so, yes | 02:40 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, u cant really add that because you dont have the source code for it, youll just have to recompile it upon booting the new kernel | 02:40 |
| MasterShrek | damn netsplits | 02:40 |
| nixternal | I seen that one coming | 02:40 |
| horizon88 | any ideas why, cwillu? | 02:40 |
| nixternal | MasterShrek: that isn't a netsplit, that is morons doing CTCP exploits | 02:40 |
| `eric- | lol | 02:40 |
| Seeker` | MasterShrek: they aren't netsplits, they are people attacking the channel | 02:40 |
| nixternal | !staff | 02:40 |
| ubotu | Hey nalioth, jenda, rob, SportChick, seanw, BearPerson or ompaul! I could use a bit of your time :) | 02:40 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, ah but the ubuntu kernel guide does mention adding restricted drivers module | 02:40 |
| nixternal | can we get an amen? | 02:40 |
| MasterShrek | oh | 02:41 |

| meoblast001 | hello | 02:41 |
| nixternal | vader1102: change your IRC port to 8001 | 02:41 |
| kkathman | script kiddies | 02:41 |
| IdleOne | cwillu: it doesnt . just the kiddies who use irc suck | 02:41 |
| mrunagi | that didnt look like a netsplit | 02:41 |
| xsacha | vader1102: got popped | 02:41 |
| Evanlec | call ops? | 02:41 |
| meoblast001 | how do i boot ubuntu live CD through a network? | 02:41 |
| nixternal | vader1102: you fell victim to an IRC exploit | 02:41 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, hmm, i never tried it | 02:41 |
| cwillu | nixternal: well, I was about to complain about how none of the clients support many multiple simulanious conversations very well at all, but anyways :p | 02:41 |
| Pici | Evanlec: jrib is here. | 02:41 |
| cached | Why did Pidgin just try to join channels called wis_willow and a bunch of other crap? | 02:41 |
| Evanlec | oh k | 02:41 |
| xsacha | cached: someone was using an exploit | 02:42 |
| sohum | did that have something to do with the ignored DCC SEND i just got? | 02:42 |
| vader1102 | nixternal, never happened in 3+ years | 02:42 |
| nixternal | cwillu: IRSSI...it supports the 70 or so simultanious convs just fine :) | 02:42 |
| bjb1959 | trying to get qwest actiontec dsl to work but can't seem to get connected. any ideas? | 02:42 |
| cached | xsacha: huh? what? | 02:42 |
| MasterShrek | sohum, probably | 02:42 |
| Evanlec | Pici, everything under control? | 02:42 |
| comicinke1 | how can I teach ubuntu (and python) the default text encoding "utf-8" ? | 02:42 |
| Pici | Evanlec: I actually just rebooted and missed the action. | 02:42 |
| flyingfree | okay so do i install true type fonts into the etc/fonts folder to get scribe, abi word, etc.. to find them? | 02:42 |
| horizon88 | Ubuntu apparently broke my network and i have no idea why | 02:42 |
| xsacha | cached: a ctcp exploit | 02:42 |
| cwillu | nixternal: I need something that lets me split people in a single channel to different windows | 02:42 |

| Evanlec | Pici, oh, i just got a bunch of ctcp version things | 02:43 |

| ax | so, does anyone know what is the replcaement for gnome-theme-manager? | 02:43 |
| sohum | hi all. i'm having a small problem where after an apparently random amount of time, compiz fusion defaults to the last non-custom setting it was on. i can set it back to custom, and it will work again, until it defaults again. what could be causing this and how would i fix it? | 02:43 |
| VoX | nixternal: haha | 02:43 |
| cached | What exactly does the exploit do? | 02:43 |
| who_cares | heh | 02:43 |
| ebirtaid | fn'ax: gnome-control-center | 02:43 |
| jrib | nixternal: yep, I'll leave +r for a bit | 02:43 |
| who_cares | I crashed pidgin | 02:43 |
| cwillu | horizon88: still there? | 02:43 |
| horizon88 | yes, cwillu | 02:43 |
| Evanlec | Pici, im using the alternate port to connect so i should be safe from the dcc exploit right? | 02:43 |
| flyingfree | Question where do I copy true type fontst o to get scribe, abiword etc.. to find them? | 02:43 |
| radioaktivstorm | cwillu what do i do now, ive installed ndiswrapper, i have the inf, and ive done rmmod on the bcm43xx | 02:43 |

| bardyr | radioaktivstorm, sudo ndiswrapper -i .inf-file | 02:44 |
| clusty | i have a question about the fstabs. lately the device is refered to by a long hex string rather then the device (/dev/bla). how is that thing generated? | 02:44 |
| Jisao | works with satellite? | 02:44 |
| emmanuel | gutsy rocks | 02:44 |
| Evanlec | !uuid | clusty | 02:44 |
| ubotu | clusty: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 02:44 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: k, there should be an option in administration about windows wireless drivers | 02:44 |
| crdlb | ax, gnome-appearance-properties | 02:44 |

| _Ivo | Pici: thanks | 02:45 |
| Evanlec | ebirtaid, if gnome sucks what do u use then? | 02:45 |
| radioaktivstorm | cwillu oo fancy! | 02:45 |
| emmanuel | gutsy and compiz integration is incredible | 02:45 |
| ebirtaid | fn'Evanlec: openbox | 02:45 |
| sohum | hi all. i'm having a small problem where after an apparently random amount of time, compiz fusion defaults to the last non-custom setting it was on. i can set it back to custom, and it will work again, until it defaults again. what could be causing this and how would i fix it? | 02:45 |
| Evanlec | ebirtaid, is that a branch of blackbox? | 02:45 |
| bkc | I am having trouble with ion3-mod-xinerama on gutsy 64 bit. it ion3 crashes when dopath("mod_xinerama") is executed.. anyone tried it? | 02:45 |

| vader1102 | sohum, no need to repeat.... if someone knows they will answer | 02:45 |

| flyingfree | question where do I isntall true type fonts too for scribe, abiword etc.. to find them? | 02:46 |
| vader1102 | np sohum | 02:46 |
| Evanlec | ebirtaid, cool, i always wanted to try blackbox back in the day but never got around to it | 02:46 |

| graelb | If i just modprobed acerhk, will it automatically load on startup? or will i need to add it to another file? | 02:46 |
| ubotu | flyingfree: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 02:46 |
| cwillu | radioaktivstorm: any luck? | 02:47 |
| Evanlec | ebirtaid, i tried flux...wasnt terribly impressed...everything based off a right click on desktop menu....i dunno | 02:47 |
| danny3793 | nexano: I tried what you said and it still is freezing, infact it forze first time i logged int | 02:47 |
| cwillu | who_cares: k, rerun the dist-upgrade | 02:47 |
| ebirtaid | thats the way I like it, panels are overrated to me | 02:47 |
| sohum | Dr_willis: it's already flat file... let me try gconf then | 02:47 |
| ebirtaid | plus in openbox I bound it to the left mouse button | 02:47 |
| phreck | gotta give it to ubuntu, they did do a great effin job at integrating compiz-fusion, and non free drivers. | 02:47 |
| Ryuho | what would be a fun game to play on a tablet pc? | 02:47 |
| phreck | the most seamless driver/compiz install/config ive ever had. | 02:48 |
| Evanlec | the left mouse button? lord, isnt that used for other things, i.e clicking on stuff? lol | 02:48 |
| clusty | Evanlec: cute. but still how is it calculated? size, first sector?? | 02:48 |
| phreck | Ryuho, chess | 02:48 |
| ebirtaid | not on the desktop | 02:48 |
| ebirtaid | there are no icons :) | 02:48 |
| Ryuho | lol thanks phreck | 02:48 |
| danny3793 | can someone help me get my LiveCD to stop continously freezing? | 02:48 |
| emmanuel | is there a way to active anti aliasing in compiz? | 02:48 |
| Evanlec | clusty, i have no idea, did u read the doc i just gave you? | 02:48 |
| who_cares | cwillu: same error. Would it help for me to remove all of acpid and then reinstall it with apt? | 02:48 |
| clusty | Evanlec: yes | 02:48 |
| Evanlec | ebirtaid, what if ur running a full-screen app? | 02:48 |
| cwillu | who_cares: maybe; try aptitude reinstall acpid | 02:49 |
| andresmujica | how much free space do i need to fulfill the gutsy upgrade??? | 02:49 |

| gireesh | danny3793: is this during an install? | 02:50 |
| danny3793 | patricknev: I use Azerues, well did, right now i cant | 02:50 |
| sohum | gireesh: do yu have additional repos enabled? not sure why you'd need em, but... | 02:50 |
| gireesh | sohum: whch repo do I need? | 02:50 |
| patricknev | ohh okay thanks ebirtaid and danny3793 | 02:50 |
| danny3793 | gireesh: no its overall, once the system starts up sometimes it freezes sometimes it doesnt, other times its instant right after everything loads | 02:50 |
| Evanlec | ebirtaid, oh, well i was usin flux on the ubuntu i have on my usb drive for when i using it on lower power machines...thinking i should try xubuntu tho, ubuntu seems to have some quirks when not using gnome | 02:51 |
| gireesh | danny3793: if it is installed use the NVidia driver | 02:51 |
| wirechief1 | nixno0b try google lots of hits on that | 02:51 |
| ebirtaid | fn'Evanlec: the way they have xfce set up is actualy kind of similar to gnome | 02:51 |
| danny3793 | gireesh: i did activate the Nvidia restricted driver, but after i restarted it was no longer enabled and it was not downloaded, any idea on how to save that kinda stuff? | 02:51 |
| ebirtaid | it wouldnt be much of a transition | 02:51 |
| mmdski | where do i set environment variables for gnome? | 02:51 |
| ebirtaid | xfce is a nice DE also though | 02:52 |
| sivik | !nvidia | 02:52 |
| Evanlec | ebirtaid, yea i heard it wasnt much different these days, does it perform better? | 02:52 |
| ubotu | To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 02:52 |
| sohum | gireesh: huh. i have a kubuntu-desktop in gutsy/main. This may seem stupid, but did you spell it right? | 02:52 |
| ebirtaid | less resource heavy | 02:52 |
| gutsy1 | Can someone help me to get compiz working? | 02:52 |
| gireesh | sohum: yes I did | 02:52 |
| gireesh | hold on | 02:52 |
| danny3793 | sivik: I dont have 7.10 installed, infact my current installation is screwed because of updating to 7.10 | 02:52 |
| ebirtaid | plus transparency on non-accelerted cards | 02:52 |
| Evanlec | ebirtaid, right but my point is that xubuntu is built from the ground up with xfce in mind, whereas ubuntu is built with gnome in mind, thus installed other DE's is possible but has some quircks | 02:52 |
| gireesh | yes right spelling | 02:52 |
| sohum | gireesh: also try updating the sources list. are you using a mirror? | 02:52 |
| danny3793 | sivik: I am currently using LiveCD. | 02:52 |
| gireesh | sohum: a US source | 02:52 |
| emmanuel | antialiasing in compiz, i have tried nvidia settings but nothing change | 02:52 |

| who_cares | is there a way to configure it manually? | 02:53 |
| gireesh | using the main server now | 02:53 |

| gireesh | this is strange | 02:54 |
| Stormx2 | arch1k: Make sure it's in /etc/fstab? | 02:54 |
| cwillu | arch1k: add it to fstab | 02:54 |

| Frogzoo | Codemaster: try booting with kernel option 'acpi=off' | 02:55 |
| ebirtaid | fn'Stoffer: try pacpl | 02:55 |
| Codemaster | Frogzoo: what does ACPI do and how would i change the boot option to that? | 02:55 |
| arch1k | Sorry i'm a noob...how do i figure the old and the new UUID? | 02:55 |
| cafuego | Stoffer: Offhand, there is no good way to convert those (you lose quality) However, ffmpeg should be able to do it. | 02:55 |
| ebirtaid | fn'Evanlec: try pendrivelinux.com I think | 02:55 |
| ebirtaid | they might have a howto | 02:55 |

| MasterShrek | arch1k, type: blkid in a terminal | 02:56 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, I uninstalled compiz and beryl, then after i reinstalled compizfusion, it doesn't work,, when I click "Compiz Settings Manager" nothing happens, and when I try to enable visual effects in the appearence menu, it tells me that the composite extension isn't available.... what gives? | 02:56 |
| cafuego | and indeed, blkid should give you the new one. | 02:56 |
| gireesh | yeah they were typoes :) | 02:56 |

| bjb1959 | oops | 02:57 |
| Frogzoo | Codemaster: from the grub menu, hit 'e' to edit the boot params, add 'actpi=off' to the 'kernel' line, then 'b' to boot - once you're up & running, I would add it to the end of the 'kopt' options in /boot/grub/menu.lst & run 'sudo update-grub' to make this permanent - acpi is power management, which may be your problem | 02:58 |
| danny3793 | man, i am about to just give this stuff up =\ | 02:58 |

| marcus_ | Hello. anyone have any experience with looking glass 3d they would like to share? | 03:08 |
| MasterShrek | Colro, like what format? | 03:08 |
| joanki | wirechief1, you there? | 03:08 |
| ShadowMinds | bbrazil: i got disconencted lol sorry | 03:08 |
| bjb1959 | Lilacor: just connect the modem to the router and then set up the router? | 03:08 |
| dimas_ | !v4l2 | 03:08 |
| danny3794 | joanki: most likely not, i have had at minimum 4-5 people help me, i have been reading the forums for about 3 days, and i have found nothing, im just about ready to throw the damn thing into my burn pit and light er up | 03:08 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about v4l2 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 03:08 |
| Lilacor | bjb1959: so connect the broadband router, insert the authentication information into _that_ and then you should be able to connect without problems | 03:08 |
| Arafangion | Colro: You're asking to convert from one lossy format to another, also lossy format? | 03:08 |
| ShadowMinds | bbrazil: boot prompt in linux where at? after grub? | 03:08 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, there's a way to output its logfile, and it will tell u if it has anything cached, when i was running it, it would sometimes tell me it had cached a few things | 03:08 |
| joanki | danny3794: maybe you can send wirechief a message | 03:08 |
| bbrazil | ShadowMinds: in grub | 03:09 |
| rjonesx | Is there anyway to move a shortcut icon to the Application menu? | 03:09 |
| joanki | he's helping me in private chat i asked him to help you 2 | 03:09 |
| Lilacor | bjb1959: because you can set the router to login to PPPoA and have it setup for DHCP | 03:09 |
| Ashfire908 | joanki: run gnome-system-monitor and go use firefox. you can check the various processes and resources | 03:09 |
| ShadowMinds | bbrazil: in grub what do i type? to get to command line? | 03:09 |
| Lilacor | bjb1959: then you can plug your computer into the back of the router | 03:09 |
| bbrazil | ShadowMinds: I forget the exact steps, but you need to edit the kernel boot line and add noacpi | 03:09 |
| Lilacor | How do I fix the choppy sound under linux HOMM3? | 03:09 |
| ShadowMinds | bbrazil: is it ctrl alt f1? | 03:09 |
| danny3794 | joanki: lol, i have no errors to give him because i dont receive any =\ | 03:09 |
| stemount | Hey guys... Whats a good alternative font for Verdana in Ubuntu/ | 03:09 |
| Colro | I don't really care what format -- whatever's got good quality for less space. Some of my 4 minute songs are 8-10mb | 03:09 |
| marx2k | My SAMBA server doesnt seem to show itself in a workgroup.. like, it's workgroup is "WORKGROUP", but when viewed from other computers, I cant see the workgroup in the samba servers list | 03:09 |
| bbrazil | ShadowMinds: no, that's for the bios. Could be 'e' | 03:09 |
| ShadowMinds | bbrazil: oh ok i remember the options | 03:09 |
| joanki | Ashfire908, how do i run that | 03:09 |
| joanki | ohhhh i see | 03:09 |
| joanki | ok let me d that | 03:09 |
| sohum | gutsy1: coudl you run this in a terminal window and post the results?: sudo grep ARGB /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:10 |
| ShadowMinds | bbrazil: i'll try it right quick if i don't get a hang on NVRAM | 03:10 |
| bjb1959 | Lilacor: I will give him a call and try that | 03:10 |
| Evanlec | stemount, the default is bitstream sans i believe | 03:10 |
| ShadowMinds | bbrazil: i also am recieving that too | 03:10 |
| Frogzoo | Colro: if you're ripping, ogg is good, otherwise it's best to not resample your mpgs | 03:10 |
| Lilacor | bjb1959: okay, good luck | 03:10 |
| stemount | thanks Evanlec :) | 03:10 |
| Stoffer | anyone know where the nautilus-scripts directory is? | 03:10 |
| ShadowMinds | bbrazil: after replacing my board | 03:10 |
| rjonesx | Is there anyway to move a shortcut icon to the Application menu? | 03:10 |
| Ashfire908 | joanki: when it loads go into the processes tab and select view>All processes | 03:10 |
| Stoffer | nevermind | 03:10 |
| Arafangion | Colro: Your music has been encoded in a lossy format, you want to compress /that/ format into another format which is also lossy, resulting in an extreme-worst-case resampling penalty? | 03:10 |
| jason_ | Where Can I find the 32Bit compatibility libraries? | 03:10 |
| joanki | Ashfire908, says it's sleeping | 03:10 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: what are the other computers running? | 03:10 |
| danny3794 | brb, gonna go try something i just found, hopefully it does something... | 03:10 |
| Ashfire908 | rjonesx, i think you would have to edit the menu | 03:10 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: all running gutsy | 03:10 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: are are the in the same broadcast domain and subnet? | 03:11 |
| rjonesx | thx | 03:11 |
| marx2k | I can connect to the computer directly via smb://ipaddress/ but... | 03:11 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: *and are they | 03:11 |
| Ashfire908 | joanki, yes, if a process is not activly doing something, it's "sleeping" | 03:11 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: Hm good question...how do i check that again? | 03:11 |
| MasterShrek | marx2k, security=share in smb.conf i believe | 03:11 |
| beef137 | can someone help me with something? | 03:11 |
| joanki | Ashfire908, is that what it meant then | 03:11 |
| MasterShrek | !ask | beef137 | 03:11 |
| ubotu | beef137: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 03:11 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: ping 255.255.255.255 will check broadast domain | 03:11 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: you running 'nmbd' ? | 03:11 |
| nexano | can anyone help out with Nvidia GeForce 7800 problems? | 03:11 |
| marx2k | I am | 03:12 |
| marx2k | MasterShrek, it is share security | 03:12 |
| jason_ | Anyone know where I can download 32Bit compatibility libraries? | 03:12 |
| beef137 | i booted on a live cd for unbuntu and i did it to get files from a windows folder because we dont have access to the admin password for xp | 03:12 |
| beef137 | so | 03:12 |
| Ashfire908 | joanki, status will always mean what it means | 03:12 |
| marx2k | they are in the same broadcast domain | 03:12 |
| beef137 | when i navigate thru the files i dont see the files under my admin folder in "document and settings" | 03:12 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: gimme a few minutes to remember how to do this | 03:12 |
| graelb | Is anyone having problems with 7.10, with the network configuration setting the address of the router as a dns server? | 03:12 |
| beef137 | is there a way i can see them? | 03:12 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: ok :) | 03:13 |
| jared | how can I update my java selection, the one I want frostwire to use. I have it installed, but it still says "Java can't be found" or something | 03:13 |
| MasterShrek | beef137, if they dont show up, then i would say no | 03:13 |
| jared | !java | 03:13 |
| sohum | beef137: that's a windows question, but anyway: Docs and Sets/<UserName>/My Documents/ | 03:13 |
| 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 | 03:13 |
| ShadowMinds | bbrazil: i can't get past NVRAM now | 03:13 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: what does findsmb say? | 03:13 |
| MasterShrek | jared, 64 bit? | 03:13 |
| jared | 32 bit | 03:13 |
| MasterShrek | hmm | 03:13 |
| Ashfire908 | joanki, what do you have running when the thing slows down (i mean programs, not what is in the processes list) | 03:13 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, that did nothing | 03:13 |
| sohum | gutsy1: so no output? | 03:14 |
| Paddy_EIRE | does anyone know why the ubuntu kernel devs broke sound support in any kernel above feistys -15 | 03:14 |
| gutsy1 | none at all | 03:14 |

| PaPaFD | When ever I try to change my Screen resolution or run an Game that is set at a different resolution it just goes black. It is running at 1280 X 1024 24 bit as long as it it left there it looks great. Is there a way to force xorg.conf to re-detect my hardware and correct itself? | 03:14 |
| sohum | gutsy1: ok. sudo <your favorite text editor> /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:14 |
| warden007 | hello everyone. new here. :) running gutsy on macbook 2.16ghz. trying to get wireless working with madwifi. i will work on it but might have a question or two soon. :) | 03:14 |
| Arafangion | sohum: You mean, sudo $EDITOR /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:14 |
| beef137 | so no one really knows? | 03:15 |
| sohum | Arafangion: heh cool! i didn't know that! thanks! | 03:15 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: but not the one you're looking for? | 03:15 |
| Arafangion | sohum: Note, that EDITOR might not be set. | 03:15 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, there isn't anything in the file | 03:15 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: No, its in there | 03:15 |
| sohum | gutsy1: huh? /etc/X11/xorg.cong is empty? | 03:15 |
| |Kamen| | are there any memory editing cheat apps in ubuntu similar to cheat engine for windows? | 03:15 |
| marx2k | but like in Dolphin's "Samba Services" I only see one computer, NOT in my workgroup (roommates linux box) | 03:16 |
| sohum | gutsy1: conf, sorry | 03:16 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, there isn't anything in it at all | 03:16 |
| Arafangion | sohum: Are you sure that gutsy1 is running ubuntu? | 03:16 |
| jason_ | I need 32 bit compatibility libraries, anyone know where to get! Depsarate please! | 03:16 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, ubuntu 7.1 | 03:16 |
| sohum | Arafangion: I assumed that, given that he's in the ubuntu chat | 03:16 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: I don't know dolphin, just the basic samba tools and the NetBios protocol | 03:16 |
| Arafangion | sohum: Hahahahaha! ;) | 03:16 |
| who_cares|laptop | the acpi=off thing worked | 03:16 |
| gutsy1 | pwnt | 03:16 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: Let me try it in konqueror | 03:16 |
| who_cares|laptop | now I only get one dpkg error | 03:16 |
| joanki | Ashfire908, nothing! | 03:17 |
| joanki | weird huh | 03:17 |
| marx2k | Hm konqueror doesnt show it either | 03:17 |
| marx2k | how irritating | 03:17 |
| joanki | Ashfire908, but usually firefox | 03:17 |
| Ashfire908 | joanki, hmm... | 03:17 |
| marx2k | smbtree doesnt show it either, btw | 03:17 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, I installed XGL would that effect anything? | 03:17 |
| Ashfire908 | joanki, one sec... | 03:17 |
| sohum | gutsy1: i don't understand how your xorg.conf has nothing in it. that should not happen. | 03:17 |
| sohum | gutsy1: ah. yes. i think so, anyway, i've never used XGL. | 03:17 |
| MasterShrek | sohum, x can run without an xserver | 03:17 |
| joanki | danny3794, did you do a md5sum on your gusty download? | 03:18 |
| MasterShrek | without an xorg.conf**** | 03:18 |
| MasterShrek | lol | 03:18 |
| lgc__ | Hi. Is there a command to flush ALSA registers or something like that? Restarting didn't help. | 03:18 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, how do i uninstall xgl, that must be the problem | 03:18 |
| Juggernot | i love this server~! | 03:18 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: and with a -b? | 03:18 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: with smbtree | 03:18 |
| sohum | gutsy1: well, how did you install it? through packages? compiling? | 03:18 |
| bbrazil | lgc__: poweroff, wait 30 seconds, power on | 03:18 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: smbtree has no -b switch | 03:19 |
| PaPaFD | When ever I try to change my Screen resolution or run an Game that is set at a different resolution it just goes black. It is running at 1280 X 1024 24 bit as long as it it left there it looks great. Is there a way to force xorg.conf to re-detect my hardware and correct itself? | 03:19 |
| lgc__ | bbrazil, hmm... I've 6 workspaces full of stuff... | 03:19 |
| deeesseee | anyone have a few minutes they can spare helping my with a little UI problem in firefox (never happened before i switched to ubuntu) | 03:19 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: hmm, my fiesty version does | 03:19 |
| who_cares|laptop | when I run apt I get "stat: cannot stat '/var/run/john': No such file or directory" | 03:19 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, i opened terminal and typed sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl | 03:19 |
| sohum | MasterShrek: really? how does that work? on second thought: a refeence to a quick overview of how X works would be very nice! | 03:20 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: when did you install john? | 03:20 |
| MasterShrek | deeesseee, u might as well just ask your question instead of asking to ask it | 03:20 |
| beef137 | i am currently using windows xp, but i have booted off a live cd of ubuntu, if i navigate to my "documents and settings" folder my "administrator" folder is not showing up. does anyone know why or how i can access that folder? | 03:20 |
| who_cares|laptop | last october | 03:20 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: Oh mine does too... only shows that one workgroup which is not the one Im looking for | 03:20 |
| MasterShrek | no idea sohum, someone said it earlier lol | 03:20 |
| MasterShrek | never tried it... | 03:20 |
| lhunsicker | I just installed ubuntu 7.10. Now my sound doesn't work. Any suggestions? | 03:20 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: last october, under 6.10 | 03:20 |
| who_cares|laptop | and it's just kinda been there this whole time | 03:21 |
| sohum | gutsy1: ok, so sudo apt-get remove xserver-xgl | 03:21 |
| Ashfire908 | joanki, how often does it happen? | 03:21 |
| naka | beef137: see pm i sent you | 03:21 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: did you try to remove it? Does that path exist? | 03:21 |
| arch1k | ~$ sudo hibernate returns: Some modules failed to unload: ipw3945 and: hibernate: Aborting suspend due to errors in ModulesUnloadBlacklist (use --force to override).......how can i fix that? | 03:21 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: I've never touched that path | 03:21 |
| sohum | lhunsicker: stupid question, i know, but could you check your volume? | 03:21 |
| brooklynhype | is it possible to share a printer from the ubuntu machine so a windows network can pick it up ? | 03:21 |
| Ashfire908 | joanki, is it like at a certain time? | 03:21 |
| lhunsicker | Volume checked. That's not it | 03:21 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: are all these systems on the same switch/hub? | 03:21 |
| bbrazil | brooklynhype: yes | 03:22 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: Yes..same hub | 03:22 |
| MasterShrek | brooklynhype, yes, use samba | 03:22 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: and this behaviour is consistant across all systems? | 03:22 |
| brooklynhype | is there a easy point and click way from 7.10 ? | 03:22 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: Well, all I got right now is the desktop and my laptop next to it | 03:22 |
| bulmer | brooklynhype: yes, use IPP protocol which is standard with cups | 03:22 |
| marx2k | Ive got 3 computers on "WORKGROUP" workgroup though and the workgroup is not showing up :( | 03:23 |
| beef137 | naka | 03:23 |
| joanki | Ashfire908, usually at startup | 03:23 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: is there a way for me to force apt to remove john? | 03:23 |
| beef137 | im not registered | 03:23 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: are they on the same hub? | 03:23 |
| beef137 | so i didnt get the message | 03:23 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: indeed they are | 03:23 |
| arch1k | "hibernate: Aborting suspend due to errors in ModulesUnloadBlacklist (use --force to override)." is there maybe another utility that can help me hibernate my machine? | 03:23 |
| lashmoove | my hauppage 150 capture card is not working in 7.10 before it was "vlc /dev/video1" now that nor /dev/video0" gives me results | 03:23 |
| MasterShrek | brooklynhype, ive never actually done it, but u need samba installed, and u need to share the printer | 03:23 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: yes, but I'd prefer to know more first | 03:23 |
| MasterShrek | !samba | brooklynhype | 03:23 |
| ubotu | brooklynhype: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT | 03:23 |
| Ashfire908 | joanki, or completely at random | 03:23 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: what do you need to know? and how do I find it out? | 03:23 |
| darkstar | /disconnect | 03:23 |
| sivik | how do i reset the password for the mythtv user for the database? | 03:24 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: does that path exist, and what does dpkg -l john show | 03:24 |
| fatcatmatt | is there a command to delete a directory that has files in it? | 03:24 |
| kousotu | anyone know of a timer application? | 03:24 |
| joanki | Ashfire908, random sometimes but usually at startup | 03:24 |
| joanki | Ashfire908, when first starting appplications | 03:24 |
| sivik | its dpkg-reconfigure mythtv or something | 03:24 |
| beef137 | naka: im sorry i didnt get the message because i am not registered. this is the first time i have used irc and it is just for this problem | 03:24 |
| bruenig | fatcatmatt, rm -rf directory | 03:24 |
| PaPaFD | When ever I try to change my Screen resolution or run an Game that is set at a different resolution the screen goes black any ideas? | 03:24 |
| sohum | fatcatmatt: rm -dR | 03:24 |
| bulmer | fatcatmatt: rm -rf directory | 03:24 |
| naka | ah, right | 03:24 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: the path doesn't exist and dpkg says it's got version 1.6-40.1ubuntu installed | 03:24 |
| cdm10 | How can I get Evolution to sync with Google Calendar? | 03:25 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: what are the first two letters? ii? | 03:25 |
| kousotu | anyone know of a timer application? | 03:25 |
| brooklynhype | bulmer im on the CUPS, where is the IPP protocol option? | 03:25 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: so each host in 'workgroup' can see all the others, and the desktop/laptop can't? | 03:25 |
| cdm10 | kousotu: what do you want to do with it? | 03:25 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: first two letters where? | 03:25 |
| kousotu | cdm10: use it as a "kitchen timer" | 03:25 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: of the output of dpkg -l on the john line | 03:25 |
| bulmer | brooklynhype: cups uses IPP..on our browser go see localhost:631 | 03:26 |
| beef137 | naka: so do you know what i can do? | 03:26 |
| who_cares|laptop | oh | 03:26 |
| who_cares|laptop | iF | 03:26 |
| Ashfire | joanki, or completely at random? | 03:26 |
| naka | beef137: normally the files would just show up in there... i believe there's a way to enable encrpytion in windows, if that's what's going on you will need the password to get them back. there are also ways to set it up so that the user's data is stored somewhere else (on a different partition or drive for example). | 03:26 |
| fatcatmatt | thanks everybody | 03:26 |
| Ashfire | joanki, (sorry my connection cut out) | 03:26 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: none of the computers in the "WORKGROUP" workgroup can see the workgroup through any browsers | 03:26 |
| cdm10 | kousotu: just run the command < sleep <SECONDS> && cat /dev/random > /dev/dsp > | 03:26 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: iF | 03:26 |
| cdm10 | kousotu: it's not great, but it works, and I don't know of anything else. | 03:26 |
| eyemean | hello every one im using 7.10, anyone know why i cant create luanch inks | 03:26 |
| kousotu | cdm10: I don't want to shut dow/sleep my Laptp to do so eithewr | 03:26 |
| === Ashfire is now known as Ashfire908 | ||
| cdm10 | kousotu: it won't sleep your laptop. | 03:26 |
| arch1k | is there alternative applications to help hibernate ubuntu? | 03:27 |
| branstrom | Is there anything like the Windows freeware ColorCop for Linux? | 03:27 |
| kousotu | then what does it do? | 03:27 |
| eyemean | link | 03:27 |
| beef137 | naka: ok.. i really appreciate it, this is such a pain | 03:27 |
| Ashfire908 | branstrom, what does that app do? | 03:27 |
| tata | po polskiemu ktoś pisze? | 03:27 |
| branstrom | I just want something that is like an eyedropper, catches colors in hex | 03:27 |
| cdm10 | kousotu: the sleep command just tells it to wait... I'm sure there's something else out there that's better, and doesn't require command line use, lemme look around for a sec... | 03:27 |
| CorpseFeeder | Hi... Faxing... how do I do it? How do I set up a dial-up modem and what software do I need to install to send faxes? | 03:27 |
| branstrom | Ashfire908: see above | 03:27 |
| beef137 | i guess i could buy some utility for password recovery or something | 03:27 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: I forget what F means, but that package has been messed with. Try apt-get install -f john | 03:27 |
| kousotu | I might have to code one? | 03:27 |
| kousotu | ol | 03:27 |
| kousotu | lol* | 03:27 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: so let's reduce the problem to just those 3 computers | 03:28 |
| keegan | Hi Everyone, I cannot get xserver to work right. I get a desktop and all that good stuff, but its in 800x600 resolution. I downloaded the legacy nvidia drivers cause my video card is an old MX 420. I tried changing it in the new GUI xserver program and as well and dpkg-reconfiguring it and it always goes back to what it was? Is this a glitch or something I need to fix? | 03:28 |
| cdm10 | kousotu: yeah, why don't you? I'd do it in Python :) | 03:28 |
| marx2k | bbrazil: Ok :) | 03:28 |
| branstrom | Ashfire908: no idea? | 03:28 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: that returns the stat error again | 03:28 |
| bulmer | CorpseFeeder: look into Hylifax | 03:28 |
| Ashfire908 | branstrom, i think it's built into ubuntu. i usally try to set the color of the background to a soild color and use the thing that pops up to get the color i want | 03:28 |

| arch1k | How do i hibernate?! | 03:28 |
| fatcatmatt | is it even worth deploying Xen if i want to do 3d games in a guest OS | 03:28 |
| bbrazil | marx2k: so are those three running 'nmbd' ? | 03:28 |
| kousotu | cdm10: isn't python wht they usually code viruses in? | 03:28 |
| marx2k | they are | 03:29 |
| cafuego | fatcatmatt: No | 03:29 |

| nyar | I'm currently attempting to upgrade to 7.10. The upgrade fails each time due to a lack of room on my 32 mb boot partition (I need 31.5 mb of free space). I've already deleted old versions of the kernel on the partition, but I still do not have nearly room. Is it safe to go ahead and delete the current kernel package (after backing up, of course)? | 03:29 |

| kousotu | wow.. | 03:29 |
| eyemean | i know its silly question but i cant see it | 03:29 |
| cafuego | fatcatmatt: Unless you're virtualising servers, I wouldn't rcommend xen. | 03:29 |
| cdm10 | kousotu: what gave you that idea? I'd think that viruses are coded in C, if anything. | 03:29 |
| yokomo | is there a similar program in ubuntu that has the same functionality of winamp? (playing m3u's. playlists, etc,,, totem isn't doing it for me | 03:29 |
| branstrom | Ashfire908: is there a way to invoke that without going to change the wallpaper | 03:29 |
| branstrom | ? | 03:29 |
| kousotu | cdm10: I heard it somewhere | 03:29 |
| keegan | Anyone good with xserver? | 03:29 |
| bulmer | |Kamen|: it didnt seem to make sense, another program manipulating another users program? | 03:29 |
| Ashfire908 | branstrom, i don't know... | 03:29 |
| keegan | I really need help | 03:29 |
| cdm10 | yokomo: totem should, but try xmms | 03:29 |
| eyemean | yokomo XMMS audio player | 03:29 |
| warden007 | yokomo, Amarok is the best | 03:29 |
| branstrom | ColorCop automatically copied the hex code too, hm | 03:29 |
| eyemean | is very good | 03:29 |
| cdm10 | kousotu: hmm, there's KTimer, but that's for KDE, so it'll be a big install on a Gnome system. | 03:30 |
| naka | beef137: there is a bootable cd image you can download from http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/ to reset your Administrator password. you will lose any encrypted data in the Administrator account though. if you're the only one using (or administering) this box and you're sure you haven't encrypted anything just use that to reset your Administrator password. http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/ ...Other than that I can't help you, thi | 03:30 |
| naka | s is an ubuntu chan after all | 03:30 |
| tata | happy morning from everybady | 03:30 |
| branstrom | It would probably be easy as hell to write something small that did just that | 03:30 |
| keegan | sigh... | 03:30 |
| fatcatmatt | thx cafuego, my bro is asking but he's at work. messed up on deploying xen when he did a reinstall of ubuntu 7.10 this mornin | 03:30 |
| warden007 | my fav audio program | 03:30 |
| |Kamen| | bulmer: not another users, just another program running on the system. its intended for cheatign in games by manipulating memory values like # of lives, etc | 03:30 |
| yokomo | amarok is for kde, I am using gnome | 03:30 |
| kousotu | cdm10: I have kdeinstaledalready | 03:30 |
| johnnyg | I have my new Ubunut ISO burned but Don't want to lose my files. Is there an synatpic application that I can use to backup my stuff for the switch? | 03:30 |
| dimeotane | I find my hard drive light is pulsing each second on gusty and my internet connection is intermittent since the upgrade ... is this a kernel problem with gutsy? | 03:30 |
| kousotu | cdm10: took 4 hours :( | 03:30 |
| cafuego | Tssk. | 03:30 |
| cdm10 | kousotu: ah, then it shouldn't be too bad, just install ktimer | 03:30 |
| Ashfire908 | branstrom, let me check synaptic | 03:30 |
| arch1k | is there an alternative way of hibernating/suspending UBUNTU? | 03:30 |
| arch1k | the traditional way doesnt work here | 03:30 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: now it says "mode of '/var/run/john' changed to 0700 ../../lib/dump.c:217: internal error 'unknown verrel" | 03:31 |
| cdm10 | !repeat | arch1k | 03:31 |
| ubotu | arch1k: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 03:31 |
| kishan | does any one know how to play mms playlist in ubuntu | 03:31 |
| sohum | yokomo: try exaile if you don't want to have anything to do with kde, but gnome and kde can live side by side. i'm runnign amrok on my gnome sdesktop | 03:31 |
| bulmer | |Kamen|: um i dont know, run it on debug mode? | 03:31 |
| who_cares|laptop | then it says dpkg quite unexpectedly | 03:31 |
| kousotu | woot | 03:31 |
| warden007 | you can still install amarok in gnome just search for it in synaptic and install it from there | 03:31 |
| warden007 | i did | 03:31 |
| kousotu | thanks cdm10 | 03:31 |
| bruenig | yokomo, sonata is nice, you should use that | 03:31 |
| cafuego | fatcatmatt: As far as I can tell the xen kernel in gutsy is the same as in feisty; just the hypervisor version has changed. Don't think it's worth upgrading or that. gutsy domUs work fine still. | 03:31 |
| cdm10 | yokomo, sohum: exaile is nice, but very unstable... I use Amarok on Gnome, but I'd use Exaile if it actually worked for me :) | 03:31 |
| === naka is now known as nakanaka | ||
| bruenig | cdm10, exaile is not at all unstable | 03:32 |
| PaPaFD | anyone help with Xorg.conf issue? | 03:32 |
| Ashfire908 | branstrom, try gcolor2 you can find it in the add/remove applications program | 03:32 |
| |Kamen| | bulmer: there is no debug mode for the games I am wanting to cheat in. its actually dosbox | 03:32 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: does it say it's trying to install or remove john? | 03:32 |
| === lil_trader is now known as Alien18 | ||
| danny3794 | Can someone PLEASE help me with my problem, I cant do anything, i need to back up my data and fix my OS, someone please help :'(!! | 03:32 |
| sohum | cdm10, yokomo: agreed. i'd use exaile if it wasn't missing some key features that amarok gives me. | 03:32 |
| nexano | anyone had problems with NVIDIA GeForce 7800? installing the drivers always leave me with a black screen and no choice but using the command line to reconfigure back to vesa.. nv driver doesnt work either :/ | 03:32 |
| branstrom | Ashfire908: hm, thanks a lot... I'll check it out | 03:32 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: I ran the install -f again | 03:32 |
| cdm10 | bruenig: weird... must be because I use AAC (decrypted iTunes files... shhhh) | 03:32 |
| warden007 | yokomo, amarok is the best audio program, i believe, on any os. its one of my fav apps | 03:32 |
| Ashfire908 | branstrom, no problem | 03:32 |
| bulmer | |Kamen|: i dont know then | 03:32 |
| fatcatmatt | thx for all ur help, cafuego | 03:32 |
| arch1k | is there a way of unloading modules manually in order to hibernate..and there reload them upon wake up? | 03:32 |
| kousotu | great.. it's in seconds :( | 03:32 |
| cdm10 | Also it doesn't list my AAC tracks in the correct order, and it seems to think that the iPod doesn't support AAC, so it won't sync aac files to it. | 03:32 |
| bruenig | cdm10, well all I only used mp3's and oggs, I don't know about format support, but the player itself is not unstable, all the buttons work and it doesn't crash or anything | 03:33 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: so I guess it's reinstalling, should I try remove | 03:33 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: let's take the brute force approach: '> /var/lib/dpkg/info/john.postinst' - this is a dangerous command | 03:33 |
| Ashfire908 | arch1k, might be a thing in /etc somewhere... though that doesn't really help | 03:33 |
| fatcatmatt | WHOA?! what the crap is this!? VMWare Player isn't supported on x86?!?! | 03:33 |
| bulmer | arch1k: i dont know how rmmod would perform when you have a program running | 03:33 |
| bruenig | bbrazil, why not just delete it | 03:33 |
| Alien18 | hey, sometimes when a window is doing an extensive task it greys out, when it finishes it comes back, but every now and again it stays grey after its started working again, how do i get the color back without restarting the app?? | 03:33 |
| bbrazil | bruenig: dpkg will expect the file to still be there | 03:33 |
| Ashfire908 | fatcatmatt, did you check if it was for x86? | 03:33 |
| cdm10 | Alien18: Compiz (Desktop Effects) is doing the greying out, not sure how to disable it... | 03:33 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: it says that's an undocumented call | 03:34 |
| fatcatmatt | ashfire908: im using add/remove | 03:34 |
| cdm10 | bruenig: Like I said, maybe it has to do with AAC... it usually crashed after playing a song, and 10 minutes later I'd notice that it had stopped playing :) | 03:34 |
| bruenig | bbrazil, I have always deleted it, where is the database that indicates it is there | 03:34 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: put an 'echo' in front of it | 03:34 |
| danny3794 | can someone help me with my Gutsy LiveCD issue, i am srsly about to just cry | 03:34 |
| t3318 | hello | 03:34 |
| bruenig | bbrazil, I always figure it just checked to see if one was there or not as that seems to be a faster and smarter less error prone way to do it | 03:34 |
| cdm10 | !anyone | danny379 | 03:34 |
| ubotu | danny379: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 03:34 |
| Alien18 | cdm10, ill comb the desktop effects settings then thanx | 03:34 |
| arch1k | man..i spent way too much time trying to fix this system:( | 03:34 |
| branstrom | Ashfire908: in what section? | 03:34 |
| t3318 | anyone know how to lock icons on desktop? | 03:34 |
| PovAddict | danny3794: what is your issue? | 03:34 |
| branstrom | I can't find it | 03:34 |
| danny3794 | that or blow something up | 03:34 |
| sohum | Alien18: just look through compiz for the plugin that takes care of saturation and suchlike,a nd find the keys for adjusting colour. | 03:34 |
| cdm10 | Alien18: IT WON'T BE IN THERE | 03:34 |
| cdm10 | SHOOT | 03:34 |
| cdm10 | sorry | 03:34 |
| Alien18 | oh | 03:34 |
| cdm10 | caps were a mistake | 03:34 |
| bbrazil | bruenig: /var/lib/dpkg/info/package.list | 03:35 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: now it says permission denied.And I'm using sudo | 03:35 |
| danny3794 | cdm10: i have already asked about 20 times, and barely anyone answers | 03:35 |
| bruenig | bbrazil, that indicates the files | 03:35 |
| Ashfire908 | branstrom, just do a search | 03:35 |
| Ashfire908 | fatcatmatt, no clue what you see, i can't find it | 03:35 |
| cdm10 | Alien18: you'll have to install the "ccsm" package (Advanced Compiz Settings Manager or something like that if you're using add/remove) | 03:35 |
| branstrom | right | 03:35 |
| bruenig | who_cares|laptop, redirection is a shell thing, so that won't work | 03:35 |
| yokomo | I insalled compiz fusion on my laptop before 7.10 and there was a configure app in the system directory... on my desktop on 7.10, I don't see a confi9ure option for compiz... and it says I have the latest compiz installed, what package do I need to configure compiz? | 03:35 |
| bbrazil | bruenig: exactly, in combination with 'status' dpkg will expect that file to be there | 03:35 |
| danny3794 | Can someone help me with my LiveCD issue, i believe it is nvidia, i am not sure what is wrong but it keeps freezing and creating these random color and randomly placed pixels and such i dont know what it is i think its a video problem... | 03:35 |
| Alien18 | cdm10, that is what i was referring to, i already have it | 03:36 |
| cdm10 | Alien18: ok | 03:36 |
| DShepherd | !ccsm | yokomo | 03:36 |

| mmschnei | hey fellas, I'm trying to mount some nfs shares from another machine and I cannot seem to get write access setup correctly, can someone please help me out here? | 03:36 |
| bruenig | bbrazil, but the postinst file is not in package.list is it? | 03:36 |
| vocx | danny3794, it's useless to say "anyone?" "I've asked already" people may not know about your issue. Your best bet is simply to repeat a well formed question. | 03:36 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, i've tried everything, i uninstalled xgl, uninstalled compiz, reinstalled compiz, then restarted the comp, nothing will work... | 03:36 |
| arch1k | bulmer: does suspend2 work differently than the usual hibernate-disk, or does it just hibernate-ram and use power? | 03:36 |
| danny3794 | vocx: i have been, and no one answers | 03:36 |
| Ashfire908 | which is better: a DSA key or a RSA key? | 03:36 |
| bruenig | danny3794, then no one knows, move on to google or the forums | 03:37 |
| DogWater | Howdy, anyone have a guide for enabling all of the cool visual effects for Ubuntu 7.10? | 03:37 |
| sohum | gutsy1: wait, when yo usay unisntalled compiz... are you using third party repos (like tevin0's ) for compiz? | 03:37 |
| cdm10 | Ashfire908: I'd use DSA, it's what most people use | 03:37 |
| bbrazil | bruenig: I haven't dug enough into dpkg to say | 03:37 |
| danny3794 | bruenig: ok, you go do that for 3 days straight then too, and tell me what you think when you still find nothing. | 03:37 |
| bruenig | bbrazil, it seems like the file itself acts as the database entry | 03:37 |
| bbrazil | bruenig: quite possible | 03:37 |
| mmschnei | hey fellas, I'm trying to mount some nfs shares from another machine and I cannot seem to get write access setup correctly, can someone please help me out here? | 03:37 |
| aitch100s76 | quit | 03:37 |
| bbrazil | bruenig: I'd expect some check back for exampel for deb5sums | 03:37 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: apt-get remove got it | 03:37 |
| Ashfire908 | cdm10 but which is better? | 03:37 |
| who_cares|laptop | thanks! | 03:38 |
| sivik | how do i run a setup for the backend | 03:38 |
| danny3794 | I am currently using a Gutsy LiveCD to reinstall Ubuntu and back up my data, it keeps on freezing and im not sure why, it gives no errors.. | 03:38 |
| cdm10 | Ashfire908: they're both cryptographically very secure | 03:38 |
| bbrazil | who_cares|laptop: now purge the package, and reinstall it | 03:38 |
| bruenig | danny3794, use the alternate cd | 03:38 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, could you elaborate? this is what i typed to install...sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager | 03:38 |
| bulmer | arch1k: i dont know | 03:38 |
| patricknev | hey for some reason i cannot get the logout screen to show (giving the options to restart, hibernate, logout, shutdown...) yet the buttons appear, just invisible and if i click on the screen the fucntion will work, yet i cannot see the buttons, any ideas how to fix this? | 03:38 |

| DShepherd | mmschnei, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo. that might help | 03:38 |
| ChrisC35 | I'm in the middle of an ubuntu install, and the partition part has been on 'resizing partition' at 50% for over an hour | 03:38 |
| bruenig | danny3794, use a tty in the alternate cd | 03:38 |
| sohum | gutsy1: could you post the output of sudo apt-cache policy compiz ? | 03:38 |
| danny3794 | bruenig: a tty? | 03:38 |

| brad016 | DShepherd, oh that, yes i have | 03:40 |
| ChrisC35 | how do i find out if the installer or os is just frozen, or if its actually doing something | 03:40 |
| DShepherd | brad016, right.. open it and select 'general options' | 03:40 |
| cdm10 | DogWater: mess with all the options | 03:40 |

| brad016 | DShepherd, in general ops | 03:40 |
| sohum | gutsy1: right, you are. could you disable the third party repos, uninstall ALL compiz related stuff, and then reinstall ubuntu-desktop? | 03:40 |

| brad016 | DShepherd, which tab? | 03:41 |

| bruenig | danny3794, no arch is a linux distribution that has a text installer which allows you to use all of the ttys, so it would be a sure fire way to back everything up, I am not sure if the ubuntu alternate cd keeps you on the tty it is using or if it allows you to move around or not | 03:42 |
| |Kamen| | cdm10: I dont want to cheat at linux games, not that theres that many good ones, I'm just focussing on the dos classics here | 03:42 |
| who_cares|laptop | bbrazil: that fixed everything, thanks! | 03:42 |
| cloudeh | I'm using the partitioner in the installeer in the live disk | 03:42 |
| branstrom | Ashfire908: thanks a lot, this is just the thing | 03:42 |
| Ashfire908 | cdm10, ...just use dsa? | 03:42 |
| danny3794 | vocx: I would rather install 7.10 instead of 6.06 or 7.04 since i already have 7.10 downloaded | 03:42 |
| cloudeh | What do I do? All it seems to do is say something about roots whenever I make a partition | 03:42 |
| cdm10 | Ashfire908: that's what I would do | 03:42 |
| godzirra | Anyone have any issues with Gutsy since release? After a few hours of working, my wireless network stops working and can't reconnect, I can't run anything with sudo, and opening a terminal window won't work. It worked fine in Feisty, and jnc was positive that its my network, but i can't find anything wrong with it. | 03:42 |
| Kitsun | none of my external storage devices want to mount | 03:42 |
| cdm10 | cloudeh: how are you trying to partition it, and have you made a / partition? | 03:42 |
| jnc | I'm going to do a driveby help for some of us. If your Gnome performance is laggy when opening a terminal... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=388765 can be helpful info | 03:42 |
| vocx | bruenig, you are the guy that gives support on Ubuntu while using Debian and Arch. That is simply funny. | 03:42 |
| Ashfire908 | branstrom, you are welcome, and thanks because i was too lazy to find this app that i wanted (i was looking for something like this too) | 03:42 |
| Ashfire908 | cdm10: k | 03:43 |
| bruenig | vocx, I used ubuntu for a while though and know it well | 03:43 |
| branstrom | :) | 03:43 |
| brad016 | DShepherd, tight man, done, your awsome | 03:43 |
| bruenig | vocx, at least the base | 03:43 |
| deeesseee | godzirra: i've noticed some problems like that with my wireless, but i never thought it was because of gutsy | 03:43 |
| cloudeh | Well, I've got one partition for XP, one partition for Vista, once partition for random media and files and 6GB of free space which I hope to use for ubuntu. | 03:43 |
| danny3794 | vocx: yeah, he has me confused, ive never even heard of Arch o.o | 03:43 |
| DShepherd | brad016, thanks. i know :-) but you can tell me again | 03:43 |
| brad016 | DShepherd, this is killer | 03:43 |
| cdm10 | |Kamen|: ah, if you're going to play in DosBox, a Linux cheat program would do no good anyway | 03:43 |
| jnc | godzirra: this applies to you | 03:43 |
| bruenig | danny3794, you blaspheme | 03:43 |
| kousotu | is ayone here actually involved in coding Ubuntu? | 03:43 |
| brad016 | DShepherd, your totally awsome | 03:43 |
| godzirra | deeesseee: I'm not saying its specifically because of gutsy. I just know it worked in feisty. | 03:43 |
| bruenig | kousotu, ubuntu doesn't really have code, it packages other software | 03:43 |
| vocx | danny3794, well that is obviously a problem on your side... | 03:43 |
| cloudeh | And I don't know if I've made a "/" partition >_<; | 03:43 |

| branstrom | Ashfire908: it doesn't copy the hex automatically, but in Linux it's just a matter of selecting the text, so it's no biggie | 03:44 |

| tehk | Anyone remember the command to find a keys number? | 03:44 |
| tehk | for xkb/xmodmap | 03:44 |
| godzirra | deeesseee: yeah, same here. | 03:44 |
| |Kamen| | cmd10: sure it would. dosbox runs as a linux app, its values are the dos games values. if theres some kind of ubuntu debugger style app that would let me monitor and change those, it would work | 03:44 |

| kousotu | bruenig: ok, ell I'e had issues before | 03:45 |

| danny3793 | bruenig: if i have an NTFS partition, do i have to get those NTFS tools to back up my data using 7.10? because certain folders i do not have access to and im not certain why, but i do think the partition is NTFS | 03:47 |
| LifeNomad | Compiz error, need help please "Comparing Resolution to 3d texture size : failed" | 03:47 |

| LordZack | nothing happens | 03:48 |
| marx2k | ok so now Workgroup shows up, but when I get in there theres nothing in there | 03:48 |

| bruenig | on arch | 03:49 |
| danny3793 | bruenig: so could there be any particular reason why its still not allowing me access to folders even when i mount the drive? its not every single file thats locked, just some, and those some is the most important data | 03:49 |

| bobo | jkhgggggggggggggggkkkkkkkk | 03:49 |
| vocx | danny3793, to backup you do not need write access, just copy and paste to another partition, like EXT3 or FAT32 | 03:49 |
| danny3793 | bruenig: is there anyway to install 7.10 with the LiveCD and not overwrite my data and stuff? | 03:49 |

| ChrisC35 | well it gives me some intro text, then command line - but not telling me anything | 03:53 |
| Nexano | danny3793: starting to consider going back to winxp | 03:53 |
| bruenig | PokoTao, connect via command line | 03:53 |
| danny3793 | bruenig: so then that would mean my partition is FAT32? i installed 7.04, and thats what is currently on there, i repartitioned Vista off of it | 03:53 |
| PokoTao | bruenig: whats the syntax? Sorry, I'm new to linux | 03:53 |
| bulmer | ChrisC35: what about those other consoles? f2, f3 f4 or f5 is there a command prompt on those? | 03:53 |
| IdleOne | PokoTao: ahh I see. well you need to add the CD as a repo and the sudo apt-get install package | 03:53 |
| danny3793 | nexano: i found a topic earlier discussing that, the dude suggested to just use the restricted drivers, but one person used Envy and it worked for them | 03:53 |
| bruenig | danny3793, no that is not what I mean. I meant to say that if your data is on an ntfs or fat32 drive for that matter, linux doesn't install on those partitions anyways. | 03:53 |
| wirechief1 | well another user with a bad burn, if you are getting wierd results with gutsy you need to check your media | 03:53 |
| dimeotane | ChrisC35: I found resizing partitions in gparted takes several hours | 03:53 |
| atiredmachine | Pacane, thanks, I'll keep looking. Jack and Ardour are audio applications, which need a realtime kernel to run fast enough to handle audio and midi. I have the realtime kernel installed and everything, I just need to figure out how to let the programs access the realtime resources or whatever. | 03:53 |
| Nexano | danny3793: ive tried envy, ive tried restricted, ive tried custom scripts etc | 03:54 |
| Nexano | danny3793: nothign seems to fucking work except for vesa :/ | 03:54 |
| bruenig | danny3793, so if you had linux installed and had those partition intact then that means they are on a separate partition than ubuntu and so installing ubuntu won't affect them | 03:54 |
| danny3793 | bruenig: so that means i dont have to worry about the partition being NTFS or FAT32? I dont remember what i made it | 03:54 |

| zzxc | EnterUserName: It is the same operating system, so the channel is the same. | 03:56 |

After a few hours of working, my wireless network stops working and can't reconnect, I can't run anything with sudo, and opening a terminal window won't work.

| qmf | hi guys, i'm having trouble with fglrx and xgl. anything white on the screen glitches and doesn't show up right, it ghosts. i've googled to no avail, any ideas? | 03:59 |
| bruenig | godzirra, well just saying networking stops doesn't leave much to go on, is there something that you do before it stops, is that anything that shows up which might indicate something, we need some indication of something | 03:59 |
| bruenig | the result doesn't tell us what caused it | 03:59 |
| vocx | danny3793, brilliant! Just try every single CD, the one that works that's the one. | 03:59 |
| Evanlec | !kernel | 03:59 |
| ubotu | kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel. You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild. Also, see !stages | 03:59 |
| Codemaster | weird | 03:59 |
| foug | How can I access ccsm? it isn't in the repo's, I have the extra visual effects turned on. | 03:59 |
| danny3793 | vocx: 6.06 just sits at the splash screen though, gotta remember what i had to input for 7.05 | 03:59 |
| Codemaster | im on gutsy now and it seems almost like my card won't decrypt WEP or something | 03:59 |
| ndan | compile ur own kernel its fun! lol | 04:00 |
| godzirra | bruenig: I wasn't doing anything except listening to music this time. There was an active ssh connection to a desktop, but there was nothing happening. I wasn't running anything or actively doing anything other than listening to music. It has happened in the past when I wasn't listening to music as well. | 04:00 |
| bruenig | Codemaster, you have to put the key in | 04:00 |

| danny3793 | vocx: 7.04* I believe it had something to do with apci or something, im going ttry noapci, not sure if that was it though | 04:00 |
| godzirra | bruenig: thats the problem... I can't see anything close to a pattern. It seems to just randomly happen. | 04:00 |
| bruenig | !ot | Juggernot | 04:00 |
| ubotu | Juggernot: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 04:00 |

| ChrisC35 | should I resize the partion manually, instead of using the guided? | 04:00 |
| foug | how can i customize the extra visual effects? CCSM isn't in the repo's and I can't see a place to customize compiz-fusion anywhere | 04:00 |
| Codemaster | danny3793, vocx: yeah i am having problems with acpi too | 04:00 |
| bruenig | godzirra, ok well I don't know that many will be able to diagnose anything from that | 04:00 |

| Codemaster | this is really weird. | 04:01 |
| bruenig | Codemaster, try to get it going via cli with iwconfig and see if it works or not, it might just be a front end problem | 04:01 |
| LifeNomad | I need help getting compiz working | 04:01 |
| neosix | hello!!! | 04:01 |
| Codemaster | bruenig: yeah i just booted into recovery mode and i think that is working... | 04:01 |
| godzirra | bruenig: I'm guessing no, because I don't have any idea what that is? | 04:01 |
| foug | ANYONE? How can I access CCSM? | 04:01 |
| danny3793 | vocx: thanks lol, now i gotta figure out whats wrong, ill be back if it doesnt work =\ | 04:01 |
| CorpseFeeder | how do I work out where my modem is connected to? ttys0/1/2 etc? | 04:02 |
| bruenig | godzirra, when it fails next time, try to get it going from the command prompt and that way you can get some output if it fails | 04:02 |
| neosix | I can't connect to any server in aMule. Help!! | 04:02 |
| IdleOne | foug: right click it should add a new item to the menu | 04:02 |
| godzirra | bruenig: I can't use anything that requires sudo via the command prompt after the fail. | 04:02 |
| macogw | neosix: stop with the dramatic exclamation points jeez... do you have a proxy blocking you? | 04:02 |
| foug | IdleOne: right click what? | 04:02 |
| Alien18 | foug: its listed in the repo as advanced desktop effects settings | 04:02 |
| godzirra | oh, CLI. duh. | 04:02 |
| IdleOne | !ccsm | foug | 04:02 |
| ubotu | foug: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Gutsy(7.10) install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' - A new option will appear in your appearance properties - see also !compiz | 04:02 |
| bruenig | godzirra, create a root user and see if you can switch into it after the fail, if not it could be a pam issue | 04:02 |
| godzirra | bruenig: and since its wireless, the gnome manager gets the networking to start. It doesn't work via command line until gnome starts it up. | 04:03 |
| godzirra | ok. | 04:03 |
| neosix | macogw: I just need help | 04:03 |
| macogw | Alien18: the fusion icon isn't in the ubuntu repos, aFAIK | 04:03 |
| foug | thank you | 04:03 |
| bjb1959 | Lilacor: the lynksys router doesn't have PPPoA setup just PPPoE or static or dhcp or pptp | 04:03 |
| godzirra | bruenig: just create the root user like I would any normal user? | 04:03 |
| neosix | macogw: I don't use proxy | 04:03 |
| bruenig | godzirra, sudo passwd, then type the your password, then whatever password you want to give to root twice | 04:04 |
| vocx | bruenig, pam? | 04:04 |
| calimeds | whats a good substitute for newsleecher for ubuntu | 04:04 |
| pradeep | Hi | 04:04 |
| neosix | macogw: I don't speek engleesh very well | 04:04 |
| bruenig | vocx, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluggable_Authentication_Modules | 04:04 |
| macogw | Alien18: wait, is desktop-effects the desktop effects themselves, or is that the fusion-icon renamed? | 04:04 |
| godzirra | bruenig: got it. Thanks. I'll trry that and go from there. | 04:04 |
| pradeep | How do I log kernel boot messages? | 04:04 |
| vocx | bruenig, so, no issues using root in Debian or Arch? | 04:04 |
| roe | pradeep, something other than dmesg? | 04:05 |
| Draggin | Hey there - any database experts in here? I'm extremely confused - I've been struggling for weeks to get DBDesigner 4 up and running in Ubuntu, until I found out that it was replace by MySQL Workbench. But... I can't seem to find an installer or anything for Linux, only for Windows... Is this possible?? | 04:05 |
| bruenig | vocx, I used debian very briefly a long time ago | 04:05 |
| Jordan_U | vocx, What problem are you having? | 04:05 |
| danny3793 | vocx: thanks alot for that page man, i think i may have found my problem with 7.10, acpi is probably locking up my system, im going to try that | 04:05 |
| Alien18 | macogw: that ios what its called in the add/remove programs list | 04:05 |
| mindrape | Draggin - what do you wanna do exactly? Just create tables/schemas/etc? | 04:05 |
| macogw | Alien18: why'd they rename it??? | 04:05 |
| danny3793 | vocx: try noacpi that is :P | 04:05 |
| vocx | danny3793, yes! | 04:05 |
| CorpseFeeder | I don't know what the hell I'm doing... I got efax and hylafax and I can't work either of them out. | 04:05 |
| bruenig | vocx, but using root is not a problem certainly, it is necessary for some applications | 04:05 |
| calimeds | nobody knows a good newsgroup program for linux | 04:05 |
| calimeds | that downloads from binaries | 04:05 |

| noodles12 | I downloaded mugen and when i go "./mugen" another line just appears but nothing happens. Is there a way to trouble shoot this to find out what's goign on or why nothing is happenign? | 04:06 |
| pradeep | roe, everything what I see when I run without -quiet | 04:06 |
| Alien18 | macogw : no idea, but when opened its titled compiz config setteings manager | 04:06 |
| vocx | Jordan_U, no problem.I was just asking briefly for his opinion. Doesn't really matter. | 04:06 |
| bruenig | although those applications ubuntu conveniently leaves out of its repos...hmmmmmm | 04:06 |
| calimeds | Juggernot try using sudo apt-get install -f | 04:06 |
| Alien18 | macogw, wow im tired, cant spell :P | 04:06 |
| macogw | Alien18: i know what CCSM is, but is "desktop-effects" the notification area icon that you can right click and pick CCSM or pick emerald settings or reload window manager or change window manager and all that? | 04:06 |
| bruenig | I guess it kind of has to but yeah | 04:06 |
| CorpseFeeder | Can anyone help me to at least set up efax to work? | 04:07 |
| roe | pradeep, not sure what the means but, try running from the command line "dmesg |less" and tell me if that is what you are looking for | 04:07 |
| mindrape | Draggin - well, you can use Wine if you want to use a Windows package. I personally just use SQL statements to create the tables, datatypes, etc... | 04:07 |
| mindrape | Draggin - I used to use MySQL Front back in the day... it was pretty good. | 04:07 |
| Alien18 | macogw, i have no icon, no, not like i did when i had beryl installed | 04:07 |
| ChrisC35 | i'm in manual partition now. Its got /dev/hda, /dev/sda/ and /dev/sdb. what do these mean? | 04:07 |
| Draggin | mindrape - but can it really be possible that there isn't a Linux version for a MySQL supported utility? | 04:08 |
| macogw | Alien18: oh ok. i didn't think the icon was packaged in ubuntu. i have it packaged in my ppa though | 04:08 |
| Jban | Major Problem: I just got back into my apartment, replugging my laptop in, and when Ubuntu7.10 finishes loading up, I try to get the display to change to my Gateway LCD by going through Screens & Graphics and enabling it... however, this causes upon restart, for it to go into some mode where I have to select what my monitor is and what my driver is... (it doesnt even know what my laptop screen is)... so, now whenever I try to enable Custom effects (COmpiz) t | 04:08 |
| vocx | Alien18, it's different. Remember things are still evolving. | 04:08 |
| Jordan_U | In trying to dist-upgrade to Gutsy ( because update-manager "can't calculate the upgrade" there are many packages that "will be held back", can anyone help me figure out why they are going to be held back? Here is the output from apt-get, I have not performed the upgrade http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41624/ | 04:08 |

| Jordan_U | RB2, no | 04:08 |
| cloudeh | Where can I find a driver for an ATI radeon HD2600? Ubuntu tried to download it and install it automatically but something went wrong and now it's running in a super low resolution and none of the cool stuff in the appearance menus wants to work :( | 04:08 |
| macogw | ChrisC35: libata changed so no sata hard drives and ide hard drives show as sd*, but maybe ide optical drives are still hd* | 04:08 |
| wirechief1 | patio yes | 04:08 |
| foug | how can i change it from 2 cube sides to 4? | 04:09 |
| vocx | Jban, keep your question a little shorter | 04:09 |
| levander | I finally got my Gutsy upgrade straightened out. How do I start playing with this new Compiz stuff? The Desktop Effect menu item is gone off the System menu on the Gnome panel. | 04:09 |
| pradeep | roe, actually I'm trying to reproduce a bug on startup and wanted to log everything that comes out on my monitor to a file when I boot without the -quiet boot parameter. I saw dmesg but it doesn't have all the error messages I saw on boot | 04:09 |
| bruenig | foug, how can a cube have 2 sides? | 04:09 |
| Alien18 | vocx - macogw: im extremely new anyway, only had feisty installed for a week before gutsy came out, not used vista since :P | 04:09 |
| bruenig | levander, do you have a suitable graphics card? | 04:09 |
| patio | is it a boot disk or software | 04:09 |
| foug | bruenig: no idea but that's all i got :P | 04:09 |
| RB2 | bruenig/Jordan_U, I updated menu.lst on a fresh 7.10 install. After running the updates, it reset the parameters back to their original values. | 04:09 |
| macogw | Alien18: if you'd like the icon, i can tell you how to get it | 04:09 |
| Ashfire908 | where would i report an error in the weekly newsletter? | 04:09 |

| cloudeh | Where can I find a driver for an ATI radeon HD2600? Ubuntu tried to download it and install it automatically but something went wrong and now it's running in a super low resolution and none of the cool stuff in the appearance menus wants to work. | 04:09 |

| macogw | foug: virtual horizontal size in the CCSM | 04:09 |
| roe | pradeep, what command are you sending the -quiet option to? | 04:09 |
| levander | bruenig: Yeah, the restricted nVidia driver is already installed. | 04:10 |
| bruenig | RB2, that is a good question as to where those parameters that it overwrites when new kernels come out come from | 04:10 |
| Jordan_U | RB2, you need to edit the Debian automagic kernel list section for the changes to persist | 04:10 |
| Jordan_U | bruenig, It's a section of the menu.lst | 04:10 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, I went through that whole process on that page you gave me, when i click on visual effects, it still says "The Composite extension is not available" | 04:10 |
| Alien18 | macogw: no problem, i have the settings how i like them anyway, love my cube.. if i had an icon i would just fiddle more. | 04:10 |
| patio | any idea where i can find the process, i can do it on windows but am new to linux | 04:10 |
| bruenig | Jordan_U, is it | 04:10 |
| RB2 | bruenig, I was thinking exactly that. | 04:10 |
| CorpseFeeder | Hello? Doesn't anyone here send faxes anymore? | 04:10 |
| Jordan_U | bruenig, Yes | 04:10 |
| levander | CorpseFeeder: just use email | 04:10 |
| RB2 | Jordan_U, I'll take a look at that. Thanks! | 04:10 |
| roe | CorpseFeeder, No. | 04:10 |
| wirechief1 | patio use google for clone using dd | 04:10 |
| sohum | gutsy1: as in, you have hustsy's compiz fusion? | 04:11 |
| Kidaf | Hi there | 04:11 |
| pradeep | roe, on grub I edit the kernel boot parameter and remove the -quiet and -splash, which are on by default so that I can see the boot log. | 04:11 |
| patio | ok thanks. doing it right now | 04:11 |
| Jordan_U | RB2, np :) | 04:11 |
| mindrape | Draggin - I know a lot of people use a PHP front end to create their MySQL tables... I personally didnt like it. | 04:11 |

| bruenig | Jordan_U, perhaps, other distros put new kernels in the same place as the old ones so no grub updating needed | 04:11 |
| Jban | Can someone go into 1on1 chat with me to help.... this issue is bigger than a small question. | 04:11 |
| bjb1959 | I am trying to connect an actiontec modem on qwest dsl service which uses PPPoA, I have a lynksys router as well but it has no PPPoA option just PPPoE, DHCP,Static and PPTP. I can't seem to get a connection any ideas? | 04:11 |
| spiker611 | Where can I get support for moblock? | 04:11 |
| macogw | Alien18: hah i find it convenient for when emerald crashes (compiz is so stable, but emerald is still buggy :( ) so i can switch to gtk window decorator then back to emerald to fix my window borders | 04:11 |
| CorpseFeeder | levander: I can't this is stuff which needs to be faxed. If I could email it I would. | 04:11 |
| sohum | gutsy1: and you have aiglx? | 04:11 |
| macogw | mpaint: yes it does | 04:11 |
| levander | CorpseFeeder: I'm tired and was being silly. Sorry. | 04:11 |
| vocx | Jban, start by asking a good concise question. Use the pastebin if you wish. | 04:11 |
| macogw | mpaint: depends on the dongle though. if it has a zydas chipset, you're gold | 04:11 |
| vocx | !paste > Jban | 04:11 |

| Kidaf | Need help with mount and fstab. Anyone? | 04:11 |
| pradeep | roe, do you think this can be logged to a file? | 04:11 |
| Draggin | mindrape - like I say, it's more for the planning and designing of the database than the actual creation of the tables... I find it much easier working with something like DBDesigner (which is now discontinued) | 04:11 |
| spiker611 | kidaf: what about it | 04:11 |
| mpaint | if I don't? | 04:11 |
| mindrape | Kidaf - be a lil more specific and we will see what we can do | 04:11 |

| kkathman | CorpseFeeder, if you have a scanner, you could scan it then email it maybe? | 04:12 |

| danshtr|work | Hi all, for some reasons I have edgy e17 on my computer. how do i remove it? | 04:12 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, i don't think so, how would i find out? | 04:12 |
| Ishakabibble | hi guys and gals I'm having a problem with playing games like Urban Terror on Gutsy because direct rendering has been turned off. Does anyone know how i can enable it? | 04:12 |
| cloudeh | Where can I find a driver for an ATI radeon HD2600? Ubuntu tried to download it and install it automatically but something went wrong and now it's running in a super low resolution and none of the cool stuff in the appearance menus wants to work. | 04:12 |
| Jordan_U | bruenig, Debian runs "update-grub" whenever there is a new kernel package so it can include an option to also boot the older kernel | 04:12 |
| Cryoniq | There been any new updates in repo for 7.10 yet, and new ati drivers? | 04:12 |
| mindrape | Draggin - you mean this? http://fabforce.net/dbdesigner4/downloads.php | 04:12 |
| Alien18 | macogw, havent tried emerald, is it any good? anyways, my hard drive currently has 50mb of space left, not in a hurry to install anything. | 04:12 |
| RB2 | Jordan_U, everytime an install is attempted it changes the dev name for the hard drives; increments them. Is this normal behavior? | 04:12 |
| wirechief1 | cloudeh you need a different driver | 04:12 |
| bruenig | Jordan_U, yeah I just meant to say that I don't know what it does because I am not used to it | 04:12 |
| levander | Seriously, is there an article or something I can read about how to get started playing with this Compiz stuff? I had it going under Feisty, but wasn't impressed. I wanna see what's going on in Gutsy. | 04:12 |
| Ishakabibble | hi guys and gals I'm having a problem with playing games like Urban Terror on Gutsy because direct rendering has been turned off. Does anyone know how i can enable it | 04:12 |
| bulmer | CorpseFeeder: if you have scanner, use that then email the scanned image or text | 04:12 |
| macogw | Alien18: oh it's the transparent window borders thing | 04:12 |
| mavsman4457 | Hi I am having trouble getting my D-Link USB wifi card working on 7.04 | 04:12 |
| cloudeh | wirechief, where can I get the driver from? | 04:13 |
| macogw | Alien18: why such a small hard drive? | 04:13 |
| CorpseFeeder | bulmer: kkathman: I need to scan and fax. I can't email this stuff. | 04:13 |
| macogw | Alien18: or why so much torrenting? | 04:13 |

| wirechief1 | cloudeh check my pm | 04:13 |
| Draggin | mindrape - yes, that. Apparently Workbench is the continuation or upgrade of DBDesigner. Yet I can't find a Linux version of it | 04:13 |
| Jban | vocx: After trying to enable my LCD monitor through Screens & Graphics and re-logging, it caused Ubuntu to say that it could not find a driver or my monitor. Now when I start Custum effects, the border is red instead of orange. What happened? | 04:13 |
| sohum | gutsy1: no, sorry, glxinfo | grep direct | 04:13 |
| CorpseFeeder | The recipient requires fax for some godforsaken reason.... | 04:13 |
| Kidaf | spiker611 and mindrape: First, Gutsy recognized my IDEs as SCSI, but I don't think that will mess up. Problem is, I can't make Gutsy to mount the NTFS partitions I use for Windows and for data. | 04:13 |
| Ashfire908 | where would i report an error in the weekly newsletter? | 04:13 |
| bulmer | CorpseFeeder: have you looked at hylafax? | 04:13 |
| [-Ghost-] | mavsman4457: What kind of card is it? | 04:13 |
| Jordan_U | RB2, I wouldn't say that it is normal but changes can happen which is why Ubuntu uses UUID's to identify partitions | 04:13 |
| ToddEDM | hey guys im trying to set up my email with Evolution... i can send email, but i cant receive it ... could someone help me? | 04:13 |
| Fattay | Can someone pleaseee help me....I'm trying to install Ubuntu 7.1 amd64 version. It is saying.. "Failed to Start the x server (your graphical interface). It is likely that it i not set up correctly. Would you like to view the x server output to diagnose the problem? | 04:13 |
| Jordan_U | !uuid | RB2 | 04:13 |
| ubotu | RB2: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 04:13 |
| John117 | hey guys. I am running a Live session from Ubuntu gutsy CD right now. I just installed ubuntu and I'm getting "no operating system found" can somebody help me please? | 04:13 |
| mindrape | Draggin - I am DLing the Linux version from that page now... it isn't an Ubuntu package but you can just as easily tar -zxvf the file and then run it that way... | 04:13 |
| spiker611 | kidaf : why not? what does it say? | 04:14 |
| gutsy1 | sohum: direct rendering: Yes | 04:14 |
| jimmygoon | Jesus christ. I'm gonna go stomp a fox to death in curse of firefox and it crashing on me 4 times a day | 04:14 |
| Alien18 | macogw, my vista install is on a 160gb drive with 1gb of space left, i had a spare 4gb drive from an old pc so i formatted it and put ubuntu on that, im getting a 500gb one delivered tomorrow, and its all going to be gutsys :) | 04:14 |
| Ishakabibble | Does anyone know how to enable Direct Rendering? It use to work in Feitsy but now it doesn't in Gutsy | 04:14 |
| ToddEDM | :-D | 04:14 |
| levander | Fattay: you can try reconfiguring X via 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' - i think that's the package name | 04:14 |
| mavsman4457 | [-Ghost-] it is a G122 | 04:14 |
| sohum | gutsy1: cool, now try the nvidia-xconfig thing, and the grep ARGB thing, and post output to pastebin | 04:14 |
| budmang | anyway with gusty to have a different wall paper per viewport? | 04:14 |
| CorpseFeeder | bulmer: I can't work it out. it says can't connect to your hylafax server | 04:14 |
| Kidaf | spiker611: I have a partitioned HD and an old 6.4 extra HD. Gutsy "finds" the old 6.4, but just wont show the partitions on the main HD. | 04:14 |
| Draggin | mindrape - for real? How am I missing it??! Where is it? | 04:14 |
| Ishakabibble | Anyone know? | 04:14 |
| RB2 | Jordan_U, Thanks again. There is a RAID card in the machine which I think is a contributing factor. | 04:14 |
| vocx | !xconfig > Jban | 04:14 |
| PokoTao | I'm trying to install network-config off the Gutsy CD. The CD is added as a repo. I'm working from the command line with this command: sudo apt-get install network-config. It returns an error saying it could not resolve 'archive.ubuntu.com' and then fails to fetch the package. What should I do? | 04:14 |
| sohum | gutsy1: actually, jsut tell me if there is output from the grep ARGB thing | 04:15 |
| Jban | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41625/plain/ | 04:15 |
| roe | pradeep, the purpose of the quiet option is to not log everything, everything that scrolls on your screen at boot is logged to dmesg, if you want to debug your boot process remove the quiet | 04:15 |
| Cryoniq | Ishakabibble: what graphics card you have? | 04:15 |
| macogw | Alien18: i see. i have an old pentium 2 with a 5gb hard drive, so i know how that is. it just has debian, enlightenment, iceweasel, and open office. i have a 2gb hard drive somewhere too in case that one gets too full ;) | 04:15 |
| Fattay | It says, the x server is now disabled. restart gdm when it is configured correctly. | 04:15 |
| Jordan_U | In trying to dist-upgrade to Gutsy ( because update-manager "can't calculate the upgrade" there are many packages that "will be held back", can anyone help me figure out why they are going to be held back?

| vocx | Jban, I may suggest you trying toreconfigure the X Server to use "vesa" and no desktop effects, then try again to set it like it was working okay. | 04:15 |
| levander | Is this channel just this busy because of the Gutsy release? This is really a mess. No one can keep up. | 04:15 |

| vocx | Jban, I tell you I haven't use nvidia-settings so I'm no expert. But seems like you are missing a file. How did you install your video drivers? Did you use Automatix or envy? Those are not recommended. | 04:22 |

| Sir_Sid | John117, Fixmbr will re-write windows master boot record and it will boot the windows partition. You will need to re install grub to boot linux. | 04:24 |
| rellik_ | marko-_-, true, but if there is something that will run under linux that would be much better | 04:24 |
| marko-_- | nvu | 04:24 |
| marko-_- | is pretty good.. | 04:24 |
| Jordan_U | danny3793, I know, and you don't need root privileges to *read* /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 04:24 |
| nexano | wirechief1: check your privates | 04:24 |
| vocx | danny3793, try with another distro first, that way you'll be able to tell if its Ubuntu not loading proper drivers. Knoppix also allows setting boot options, and you can see which video drivers it uses upon startup. | 04:24 |

| nemo_home | main issue seems to be ip3945 is still using 2.6.17 | 04:37 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, eh? | 04:38 |
| sohum | gutsy1: so you need to enable the universe repo | 04:38 |
| ChrisC36 | so / needs to be pretty big | 04:38 |
| nemo_home | so, need to figure out what owns /sbin/ipw3945d-2.6.17-10-generic | 04:38 |
| kkathman | with detatched channels | 04:38 |
| usser | ChrisC36: that separate /home partition i suggested will hold all your personal settings | 04:38 |
| crdlb | kkathman, wouldn't matter for this but I am too (they use the same widget for the actual chat window) | 04:38 |
| ChrisC36 | if I have to reinstall my os, does that mean I have to reinstall all my apps too? | 04:38 |
| vocx | Jban, I have no direct experience with your setup, so keep asking in here. But ask properly with a meaningful well-thought question. Good luck | 04:38 |
| nemo_home | so. main question is, how would I look up the package owning /sbin/ipw3945d-2.6.17-10-generic ? | 04:38 |
| usser | ChrisC36: and /data will be dedicated entirely to data | 04:38 |
| CorpseFeeder | this is retarded - I'm gong to have to put windows on just to send a fax cos no bugger knows how to do it in linux.... | 04:38 |
| ChrisC36 | what do you mean by personal things | 04:38 |
| kkathman | crdlb, well I just hit the alt and mousewheel to change the transparency | 04:38 |
| IdleOne | !cloning | ChrisC36 | 04:38 |
| ubotu | ChrisC36: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 04:38 |
| sohum | gutsy1: System-> Admin_> Software Sources | 04:38 |
| crdlb | kkathman, oh lol | 04:38 |
| marx2k | Hm I got SWAT installed...should be port 901, right? | 04:39 |
| crdlb | kkathman, you ca do that with any app :) | 04:39 |
| MasterShrek | CorpseFeeder, faxes are old, but ill get u a link... | 04:39 |
| kc | mastershrek i am doing the server any reason why i shouldnt be doing that one?? | 04:39 |
| kkathman | crdlb, thats why I said if you have compiz-fusion installed you can do it | 04:39 |
| jazz631 | i have ubuntu installed as a dualboot on my comp, and i want to do a clean install of gutsy. problem is my cd drive died, what's the best way to do this? | 04:39 |
| limp | Hey what's wrong with google? seems down | 04:39 |
| sohum | gutsy1: and check the second checkbox (comunity maintained...universe) | 04:39 |
| crdlb | kkathman, but that makes the text translucent too | 04:39 |
| lmosher | kkathman, I have fusion installed. It's transparent, just doesn't properly show windows behind like it should. | 04:39 |
| jazz631 | i'd do a virtual drive but i already have ubuntu installed so im not sure how that'd work | 04:39 |
| mindrape | Fax... lol... modems.. laugh. Get with the times. Send a scan in an email. | 04:39 |
| Lapinux | has anyone here done the 7.10 gusty gibbon upgrade? | 04:39 |
| mindrape | yes Lapinux | 04:39 |
| sohum | gutsy1: then update, and you should have it | 04:39 |
| usser | ChrisC36: for games i install i usually set up another partition, and mount it to /opt/games and for wine/windows games i create a symlink from ~/,wine/games to /opt/games | 04:39 |
| Lapinux | mindrape: how did it go? | 04:40 |
| Jban | vocx: Is there a way in Ubuntu to go back to the last working config? Cause I swear an hour ago everything was fine until I reset my laptop back up in my apartment, and tried to turn on my LCD mintor in Graphics & Screens, then everything messed up upon relogging. | 04:40 |
| kkathman | lmosher, it shows things behind it here - again using the compiz-fusion transparency | 04:40 |
| Codemaster | is there any way i can do a re-upgrade or something? i think in the middle of upgrading to gutsy i messed something up, so... | 04:40 |
| nemo_home | ah. apt-file search | 04:40 |
| CorpseFeeder | I'd love to send this stuff by email, but this recipient needs e to fax this shit for some unknown reason :( :( :( | 04:40 |
| usser | ChrisC36: well like your contacts in aim stuff like that, | 04:40 |
| mindrape | Lapinux - great... no problems at all except Compiz was being lame so I disabled it. | 04:40 |
| MasterShrek | kc, you dont want that, do the other one | 04:40 |
| crdlb | lmosher, he means that you should just do alt+mousewheel | 04:40 |
| crdlb | not xchat's transparency setting | 04:40 |
| nemo_home | which inconveniently, is turning up nada. dammit | 04:40 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, update what? | 04:40 |
| MasterShrek | kc, that is modules for ubuntu server edition's kernel | 04:40 |
| gutsy1 | Sohum, i'm an idiot | 04:40 |
| danny3793 | vocx: on 6.06 X keeps failing, it says no screens found, i chose Vesa the first and second time, what should i do? | 04:40 |
| reflous | I don't get it, upgrading to 7.10 removed beryl but didn't leave me with anything else... what is the beryl replacement? | 04:40 |
| Lapinux | mindrape: i keep getting this right in the begining... Failed to fetch http://static.audacious-media-player.org/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found | 04:40 |
| Savage-{ | hey guys, how could I rewrite my MBR with the grub bootloader from the live cd? I have tried to do grub-install /dev/sdb but it says "Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device." | 04:41 |
| lmosher | kkathman, crdlb, Yeah. alt+mousewheel is not good. | 04:41 |
| danny3793 | vocx: i believe the first time it booted it tried nv, im not sure | 04:41 |
| sohum | gutsy1: oh, it's called reload under synaptic | 04:41 |
| kc | so mastershrek i am to do just the ose one and not the server??? | 04:41 |
| mindrape | Lapinux - its only been available for a few days os maybe the repo is down? | 04:41 |
| lmosher | crdlb, thanks for clarifying. Hopefully apps will follow consoles lead and allow true handling of transparency | 04:41 |
| FireHazard17 | should i use the 64-bit build? | 04:41 |
| ChrisC36 | If I just use 2 partitions, 3gig for swp, and then almost 500 for / , then i wont have to worry about what sizes for the /dirs in there right | 04:41 |
| koresko | Hi, I'm trying to recover from a failed upgrade (to Gutsy). My approach now is to tell the OS it's actually Feisty and launch the upgrade again. But how do I do that??? | 04:41 |
| usser | ChrisC36: yes but its not really efficient | 04:41 |
| DShepherd | 3gigs for swap?? wow! | 04:42 |
| d|v | what do you guys think of anti virus / malware protection for ubuntu | 04:42 |
| mindrape | Chris - create a /home separately. :) | 04:42 |
| usser | ChrisC36: i strongly suggest have at least a separate /home | 04:42 |
| ChrisC36 | soemone told me swp should be 1.5x ram | 04:42 |
| arang2 | guys please help with this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=499096 <------- help please someone with udev knowledge | 04:42 |
| danny3793 | DShepherd: i have about the same, or had on 7.04, i had 2GB of RAM though | 04:42 |
| Savage-{ | 500MB for swap | 04:42 |
| clouder | some compiz thingie is taking over my <super>R binding that I used to have for deskbar, how can I fix that? | 04:42 |
| d|v | i have avg free edition on here | 04:42 |
| DShepherd | d|v, we dont think about that topuc much | 04:42 |
| lmosher | d|v, I think it's largely unnecessary | 04:42 |
| usser | ChrisC36: 1x ram usually does it for me | 04:42 |
| kkathman | djv not necessary | 04:42 |
| Jban | vocx: Can I put the liveCD back in and have it repair or something? | 04:42 |
| nemo_home | frig. this is annoying | 04:42 |
| usser | ChrisC36: if u want to be able to hibernate that is | 04:42 |
| Savage-{ | I got 2GB RAM and I use 500 and I hardly ever actually use any of that even | 04:42 |
| ChrisC36 | why do I need a separate partition for /home? | 04:42 |
| lolperhaps | I installed Ubuntu Gutsy on my dad's Vista machine, and now Vista won't start, asking to launch Startup Repair. is there a known incompatibility, or any idea what the cause is or how to fix it? | 04:42 |
| MasterShrek | kc, you need the ose and the generic | 04:42 |
| d|v | i still think something is needed | 04:43 |
| mindrape | ChrisC36 - just depends on how much you have... if you have like 2 gigs of really good RAM then you could probably skimp. Those rules about 2x RAM or 1.5x RAM are from the old days when we had 16-128 MB of RAM. | 04:43 |
| RogueLogic | Antivirus protection is good for helping the windows machine (I use kaperski) but I don't know of any malware that affects Linux yet, d|v | 04:43 |
| usser | ChrisC36: so that in case of a reinstall u dont loose your personal settings | 04:43 |
| DShepherd | danny3793, ok. that just feels like a waste of space | 04:43 |
| Lapinux | mindrape: im guessing so, where would i find another repo to use | 04:43 |
| marx2k | Ok... I installed SWAT but I cant seem to connec to myself at port 901 :() | 04:43 |
| d|v | while the system is vunerable | 04:43 |
| lmosher | lolperhaps, You installed on a separate hard drive? Or a separate partition? | 04:43 |
| d|v | cause there isn't root access | 04:43 |
| Yowsers | go sox | 04:43 |
| d|v | i'm weary of firefox getting something | 04:43 |
| Savage-{ | 500MB for swap | 04:43 |
| ChrisC36 | why would a reinstall of the os erase your /home files? | 04:43 |
| RogueLogic | No root access is actually MORE secure. | 04:43 |
| lolperhaps | A separate partition, first resizing his Vista partition | 04:43 |
| MasterShrek | CorpseFeeder, im not really sure how to do it, but there are some guides out there, have u tried google? | 04:43 |
| PokoTao | I'm trying to install network-manager-gnome via the gutsy install cd. The cd has been added as a repo, and apt-get has been updated. When I run <sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome> it says that it "is not available, but is refered to by another package" and then drive E: (the cd drive) returns that the package "has no installation candadite" | 04:43 |
| marx2k | !swat | 04:43 |
| ubotu | samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT | 04:43 |
| mindrape | ChrisC36 - because it will fdisk the whole partition... | 04:43 |
| danny3793 | DShepherd: i didnt tell Ubuntu to take that much swap, it decided for me...I have 2GB of OCZ | 04:43 |
| stemount | PokoTao, | 04:43 |
| Savage-{ | Although 1GB is nothing now days | 04:43 |
| ChrisC36 | with the 500GB drive, 3 for swp is not losing much | 04:44 |
| nemo_home | ok. I keep getting | 04:44 |
| nemo_home | # modprobe ipw3945 | 04:44 |
| nemo_home | sh: /sbin/ipw3945d-2.6.22-14-generic: not found | 04:44 |
| usser | ChrisC36: because the reinstall wipes out / partition | 04:44 |
| DShepherd | danny3793, ah ok | 04:44 |
| lolperhaps | then I gave /boot a primary partition of 400MB, made the swap and main partitions logical | 04:44 |
| danny3793 | DShepherd: :P | 04:44 |
| kc | thank you again mastershrek i am fine now i had just finished installing server when i saw you last msg, however i am removing it now and puting the pc version on there now | 04:44 |
| nemo_home | and apt-file search is not indicating any owner of the ipw3945d I *do* have | 04:44 |
| stemount | PokoTao, do: sudo apt-cdrom install network-manager-gnome | 04:44 |
| usser | ChrisC36: and since in your scheme theres nothing but / partition everything gets wiped out | 04:44 |
| MasterShrek | d|v, i wouldnt worry, u wont get virii in linux, but if u want there is clamav out there | 04:44 |
| nemo_home | could someone tell me what package provides that? | 04:44 |
| Savage-{ | but if you never use even 500MB of it then why | 04:44 |
| ChrisC36 | what else does a reinstall of the os wipe out? | 04:44 |
| mindrape | the / (root) partition really only needs to be like 5 gigs MAX... and thats probably too much. | 04:44 |
| CorpseFeeder | MasterShrek: I am searching ubuntuforums.org - I am looking at stuff about efax gtk now... | 04:44 |
| usser | ChrisC36: luckily enough thats all it does :) | 04:44 |
| d|v | ok thanks | 04:44 |
| Jordan_U | In trying to dist-upgrade to Gutsy ( because update-manager "can't calculate the upgrade" there are many packages that "will be held back", can anyone help me figure out why they are going to be held back? Here is the output from apt-get, I have not performed the upgrade http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41624/ | 04:44 |
| RogueLogic | Anytime, d|v | 04:45 |
| danny3793 | mindrape: im guessing its smart to put system files on one partition and data on another? :P | 04:45 |
| lmosher | lolperhaps, ok. is Vista trying to boot (you select it from a list at startup) and it doesn't boot, or you just can't get it to boot? | 04:45 |
| mindrape | danny3793 - thats how most people roll, yeah. | 04:45 |
| arang2 | guys please help with this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=499096 <------- help please someone with udev knowledge | 04:45 |
| usser | ChrisC36: so if u have your home elsewhere you can reinstall and then tell the system to mount your old /home back | 04:45 |
| ChrisC36 | ok so I need a / root of say 10gig, a /home partition of 20gig, a swp of 2gig and the rest is what? | 04:45 |
| usser | ChrisC36: / 20G so it has space to grow, /home 20 and the rest is data | 04:45 |
| danny3793 | mindrape: i think im gonna roll that way too this time around, ill just repartition my drive and make data and system seperate, as soon as i can back up some of my data, im about to just say screw it and try to install 7.10 | 04:45 |
| Jban | Could someone ppllease tell me why simply trying to enable my LCD monitor connected to my laptop, and on restarting, would cause it to go to a grey/black menue saying that it could not configure the display or something about a driver... and then it left it up to me to try to configure it myself (by selecting from the choices). ? | 04:45 |
| MasterShrek | Chris7mas_, make a 20 gig / a 2 gig swap and the rest as /home | 04:45 |
| PokoTao | stemount: E: returns <invalid operation install> | 04:45 |
| Jordan_U | ChrisC36, Just make your /home large enough to fill the rest | 04:46 |
| usser | ChrisC36: u know videos, photos, games, etc | 04:46 |
| Savage-{ | that is all chris | 04:46 |
| lolperhaps | lmosher: Vista is selected from the list, tries to boot, goes to an Error Recovery screen.. | 04:46 |
| stemount | hmm | 04:46 |
| MasterShrek | Chris7mas_, then u can have your files in your home directory | 04:46 |
| usser | Jordan_U: /home is not intended for that | 04:46 |
| nemo_home | bah. forget it. just symlinked the damn thing again | 04:46 |
| kkathman | ChrisC36 10gb root, 2gb swap and the rest home | 04:46 |
| nemo_home | need to figure out what owns that, though | 04:46 |
| t3318 | Hic, I can't find the answer :( . Anyone know how to lock icons on desktop? | 04:46 |
| Savage-{ | I never partition out my /home directory anyways | 04:46 |
| usser | Jordan_U: but i guess it can do | 04:46 |
| ChrisC36 | ok ok so I can do 3 partitions - root / at 10gig, /home (the rest, 487gig, and swp 3? | 04:46 |
| Jordan_U | usser, Not intended for what? | 04:46 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, i got that installed, but when i click preferences in the custom menu of visual effects, nothing happens | 04:46 |
| mindrape | t3318 - depends on the window environment or window manager you use... | 04:46 |
| usser | Jordan_U: holding files | 04:46 |
| ChrisC36 | root is where all the apps install their exe's? | 04:46 |
| mindrape | t3318 - some CANT do that. | 04:47 |
| MasterShrek | ChrisC36, i would make the root 20 gigs, just to be safe | 04:47 |
| danny3793 | MasterShrek: how exactly is /home seperate when its part of / | 04:47 |
| danny3793 | ? | 04:47 |
| t3318 | mindrape: i use GNOME | 04:47 |
| mikebot | How can I update miro (the one in package manager is out of date)? | 04:47 |
| lmosher | lolperhaps, Ok, sorry I was just making sure you got the list t come up (not getting the boot loader to show your windows OS is a common problem). However, once Vista is being told to run it's no longer a Linux issue. It is likely caused by the filesystem resize... vista might not like it :( | 04:47 |
| t3318 | mindrape: on Ubuntu 7.04 | 04:47 |
| mindrape | ChrisC36 - we dont have "exe"s... binaries. :) /usr/bin /bin /usr/local/bin is where most binaries go. | 04:47 |
| ChrisC36 | hehe | 04:47 |
| Jordan_U | usser, There isn't any reason not to use it for storing files | 04:47 |
| MasterShrek | danny3793, it gets mounted at /home as part of your filesystem | 04:47 |
| marx2k | ok what the hell... I didnt have winbind package installed... shouldnt installing SAMBA install that?! | 04:47 |
| Savage-{ | Home should be huge though of course | 04:47 |
| ChrisC36 | so if all the binaries go in /, then it shoudl be pretty big, so I can isntall a lot of apps | 04:47 |
| Jban | vocx: Will reinstall Ubuntu fix it? This isssue is too complex to fix here. | 04:47 |
| usser | Jordan_U: i dunno, i kinda feel that movies music should be available to all users of the system hence system-wide /data | 04:47 |
| danny3793 | MasterShrek: so its a different partition, but just linked with the filesystem? | 04:47 |
| MasterShrek | Chris7mas_, 20 gigs is plenty | 04:47 |
| MasterShrek | ChrisC36, ** | 04:48 |
| ChrisC36 | this also means on an os reinstall, i will have to reinstall all my apps | 04:48 |
| Aishiko | ChrisC36, yes root is, but you really don't need more then 512 for swap 1 gig at the most, 10 for / is good as well you should never need more then that ever it's almost overkill. | 04:48 |
| MasterShrek | yes danny3793 | 04:48 |
| lmosher | ChrisC36, If you have a spare hard disk to physically back up your /home directory, you can just install everything on / and make your life easier :) | 04:48 |
| Karark|away | anyone know when the new opensource ATI driver will be released? | 04:48 |
| Karark|away | i cannot find any good info on the forums | 04:48 |
| sohum | gutsy1: run ccsm in a terminal and post output? | 04:48 |
| Jordan_U | usser, But that adds another partition and makes less sense with a single desktop user configuration | 04:48 |
| jason_ | hi all - i just upgraded to 7.10 and now firefox has become a complete dog... for some reason is more or less locks up whenever i load a new page.. anyone else notice this? | 04:48 |
| MasterShrek | danny3793, you can mount hard drives, cdroms, flash drives, samba shares, almost anything | 04:48 |
| gutsy1 | sohum, it works thanks a lot | 04:48 |
| danny3793 | is vocx still here? | 04:48 |
| patricknev | hi, when i press the quit button on my panel, it does not show the menu (restart, hibernate...) but the buttons are there,and if i click on the screen where they ought to be they work, yet i cannot see them | 04:48 |
| patricknev | is there a browser that works with just ssl 2.0 , not 3.0? or can i change firefox to use 2,0? | 04:49 |
| ChrisC36 | ok | 04:49 |
| mindrape | jason_ - mine did the same thing.... rm -R .mozilla/ then restart FireFox... fixed it for me. | 04:49 |
| Jordan_U | usser, It's all a matter of preference anyway though :) | 04:49 |
| lmosher | ChrisC36, That's what I do. My home directory gets to about 10-20 gb. When I install a new OS I just back it up, and copy what I need back over. | 04:49 |
| jason_ | mindrape, ok - i'll try it | 04:49 |
| mindrape | jason - FYI... hold up... | 04:49 |
| usser | Jordan_U: whats wrong with having an additional partition :) yea i dunno i just doesnt feel right u know :) | 04:49 |
| Fattay | Jordan_U: Did you forget about me :) | 04:49 |
| ChrisC36 | so when i make these partions, what is primary and what is logical? | 04:49 |
| mindrape | jason_ - you lose all of your bookmarks if you do that... | 04:49 |
| jason_ | mindrape, i know.. i just backed it up | 04:49 |
| mindrape | jason_ but I didnt care... it got FireFox working again. :) | 04:49 |
| danny3793 | whenever i try to boot up 6.06 X fails, i have tried Vesa, should i try nv? I have an nvidia gfx card? | 04:49 |
| Jordan_U | usser, If you are using LVM nothing :) Otherwise you have to be sure you get the right size the first time :) | 04:49 |
| ChrisC36 | Imosher if your /home is only 10gig, where do you store all your data? | 04:50 |
| usser | lmosher: but if u had it separated in the first palce u wouldnt have to backup | 04:50 |
| CreativeSoul | where's the ubuntu off topic channel? | 04:50 |
| lmosher | usser, I don't like to recycle config files. I prefer to make them again. | 04:50 |
| Aishiko | ChrisC36, it really doesn't matter / should be first and the primary but the other 2 it's up to you and your prefrences they could be primary or logical | 04:50 |
| usser | CreativeSoul: ubuntu-offtopic | 04:50 |
| Jordan_U | CreativeSoul, #ubuntu-offtopic :) | 04:50 |
| jason_ | mindrape, okay great, that worked.. thanks | 04:50 |
| Lapinux | mindrape: looks like i got the upgrade to go by unchecking that source from the list, dont have a clue why it wanted to use an edgy repo when im upgrading to gusty... | 04:50 |
| mindrape | ChrisC36 - it all depends on what you plan on installing... a lot of people have grown accustomed to keeping all their junk in /home. If you want one massive partition go for it... just get an external drive too or something and dont worry about your / partition. | 04:50 |
| RogueLogic | ChrisC36, you could add another hard drive and just mount that to a directory under /home. Then reinstallation wouldn't be necessary | 04:51 |
| Karark|away | anyone know when the new opensource ATI driver will be released or have any info on radeon 9600? | 04:51 |
| lmosher | usser, And of my home directory, I only have my documents, videos and music... and it's nice to have a backup of that anyway | 04:51 |
| kkathman | bottom line is that the ubuntu install should partition a /home and it doesnt - most other distros do | 04:51 |
| danny3793 | When i try to boot up 6.06 X fails, and says no screens can be found, i have tried only Vesa, any idea why it is doing this? | 04:51 |
| weltschmerz | firefox keeps opening a tab to my home directory. i close those tabs and they keep re-opening. | 04:51 |
| mindrape | Lapinux - for the upgrade it has to first look at a prior version repo for the upgrade path. | 04:51 |
| mikebot | Can someone help me with this: miro: | 04:51 |
| mikebot | Depends: libboost-python1.33.1 but it is not installable | 04:51 |
| usser | kkathman: i agree | 04:51 |
| tony_ | I'm having a problem booting due to a screwed up ndiswrapper. Is there a way to disable the wireless in the boot options? | 04:51 |
| ChrisC36 | I have 2 x 500gb, that I want to put in raid1 | 04:52 |
| mindrape | RAID is pointless for home installations IMHO... | 04:52 |
| usser | tony_: boot into rescue mode and blacklist ndiswrapper | 04:52 |
| Savage-{ | tony_: you can disable the module that it created | 04:52 |
| ChrisC36 | what do you mean by home installation? | 04:52 |
| danny3793 | usser: oooh whats this rescue mode lol. | 04:52 |
| Jordan_U | tony_, Start in recovery mode and 'apt-get remove ndiswrapper' | 04:52 |
| usser | danny3793: | 04:52 |
| mikebot | Anyone? | 04:52 |
| Tennessee_Jed | anybody having issues with bzflag after upping to gutsy? | 04:52 |
| mindrape | ChrisC36 - have you ever recovered from a drive failure before using RAID? | 04:52 |
| ChrisC36 | i've had a lot of HD's fail, so raid would be nice, considering it will be my file server, and also my dev server | 04:53 |
| mindrape | ChrisC36 - unless you run a server I dont see the point of it. For a home work station RAID is more hassle than its worth. | 04:53 |
| usser | raid for home systems is overkill too | 04:53 |
| usser | yeah | 04:53 |
| Jban | Question: What is the best way to re-install nvidia display drivers on Ubuntu7.10 (Dell XPS_Gen_2 laptpo Geforece 6800 Ultra Go) | 04:53 |
| tony_ | usser: I can't get past the bootup phase! It freezes at "configuring network devices" | 04:53 |
| the_blur | hello =) | 04:53 |
| danny3793 | when i boot 6.06 X fails sayin no screens found, what should i do? | 04:53 |
| usser | tony_: when machine just starts press esc button that will dump you into boot menu | 04:53 |
| the_blur | danny, did it ever work? | 04:54 |
| nexano | http://ubuntusoftware.info/beryl.html#nvidia <---- might be usefull to some | 04:54 |
| usser | tony_: from there choose recovery mode | 04:54 |
| tony_ | usser: Thanks, I'm there | 04:54 |
| danny3793 | the_blur: ive never used 6.06, im just trying all the versions i have so that i can backup my data, 7.10 keeps freezing, and the only other version i have is 6.06 | 04:54 |
| usser | tony_: its gonna get u eventually to text login screen | 04:54 |
| tony_ | usser: In recovery mode, it only makes it to "configuring network devices" then freezes with the "BUG" warning | 04:55 |
| Savage-{ | how can I rewrite the MBR with grub after a vista and XP installation? | 04:55 |
| hendaus | scguy318 wb :) | 04:55 |
| danny3793 | the_blur: my main OS is screwed because upgrade failed from Feisty to Gutsy, so now i need to back up my data and try to recover or reformat | 04:55 |
| usser | tony_: oh like that | 04:55 |
| usser | tony_: even in recovery mode | 04:55 |
| Jban | Question: Why is it as soon as I turn on Custom Effects for COmpiz, that even though I am using the HUman theme, my window borders are red ? | 04:55 |
| tony_ | Savage-{: Thanks, but I can't even make it past the bootup! | 04:55 |
| usser | tony_: well hm do u have livecd handy? | 04:55 |
| usser | tony_: boot from it | 04:55 |
| Kidaf | Well, looks like I just managed to fix my mounting issue. Tnx Spiker611! | 04:55 |
| danny3793 | usser: what exactly does the alternate CD do? will it just upgrade my system files? my data is on the same partition as my / | 04:55 |
| ChrisC36 | well i have my repo on here, where we work on my software every day - so I wanted raid to make sure if in the case of a HD fail, we dont lose down time, or the data | 04:56 |
| Savage-{ | yeah tony use the live cd | 04:56 |
| spiker611 | kidaf you're welcome | 04:56 |
| lwizardl | during the livecd boot my external drives had an orange usb connection logo over them and now they don't have it how do I get them back | 04:56 |
| usser | danny3793: depends on what u want it to do, but theres no upgrade mode for ubuntu cds so its gonna overwrite all the files in your / | 04:56 |
| jason_ | can someone also show me how to get flash to work in 7.10? I'm running on amd x64, so on 7.04 this involved (i believe) installing an x86 version of firefox | 04:56 |
| spiker611 | 1wizard1 you just want the logos back? | 04:56 |
| danny3793 | usser: darn =\ | 04:56 |
| lwizardl | spiker611, yes | 04:56 |
| usser | jason_: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 04:57 |
| tony_ | usser: Thanks, okay, it's up. | 04:57 |
| spiker611 | 1wizard1 but the drives are there right | 04:57 |
| RHLinuxGU1 | Hello | 04:57 |
| kkathman | jason_, when I went to a web site that had flash on it, there was a 'click to install' icon - I did and it did | 04:57 |
| Jban | Question: Why is it as soon as I turn on Custom Effects for COmpiz, that even though I am using the HUman theme, my window borders are red ? | 04:57 |
| * sea4ever is gone, it's midnight, and I gotta wake at 6 am, screw this homework! | 04:57 | |
| usser | jason_: restart firefox and u should have flash | 04:57 |
| ChrisC36 | for the root / and /home, do I use ext3? | 04:57 |
| lwizardl | spiker611, yes the drives are working but the little orange circle in the lower right corner are gone | 04:57 |
| jason_ | usser, ah okay... didn't realize this was so trivial, even with amd64 | 04:57 |
| the_blur | hey can we install compiz with apt or do I have to download and rigamarole it? | 04:57 |
| spiker611 | ChriscC36 sure | 04:57 |
| tony_ | usser and anyone else: I think this happened because I messed up ndiswrapper | 04:57 |
| kkathman | Jban, prolly cuz its running emerald and thats the default theme | 04:57 |
| lwizardl | spiker611, I'd like to get all my USB devices to have those | 04:57 |
| usser | tony_: boot from livecd | 04:58 |
| Bruno | I installed ubuntu studio in one partition but due to several problems it did not work and i decided to just install it from synaptic. However, while installing studio it also installed a new GRUB. if i delete the partition where studio is now, that GRUB will be deleted, but will my past GRUB work? | 04:58 |
| spiker611 | 1wizard1 well.. I think it has something to do with the icon theme | 04:58 |
| Jban | kkathuman: How do I turn that off? I have it on but I never told it to use a theme | 04:58 |
| kkathman | Jban, go to system - emerald and change it | 04:58 |
| spiker611 | 1wizard1 you can change the icon theme to whatever you want in the preferences | 04:58 |
| DShepherd | Jban, alt-f2, gtk-window-decorator --replace should bring back your ubuntu window borders.. i think | 04:58 |
| kkathman | Jban, oops system - preferences - emerald I mean | 04:58 |
| RHLinuxGU1 | I am having a problem with my restricted driver installer utility. Whenever I try to install a driver, it tells me "The software source for the package : SOME_DRIVER is not enabled" It does that for all the restricted hardware that I want to install using that utility. Why is this? | 04:58 |
| XiXaQ | I don't understand how to see how much memory I'm actually using.. Top sais 600MB, process manager sais 200.. | 04:59 |
| danny3793 | usser: is it possible CD Defect check can overlook corruptions in the CD Data? | 04:59 |
| usser | danny3793: unlikely | 04:59 |
| spiker611 | Is there proper RT73 wireless support in gutsy yet, or am I just retarded? | 04:59 |
| lwizardl | spiker611, you are correct its human | 04:59 |
| mindrape | XiXaQ - free | 04:59 |
| Jban | kkathman: How do I change it to human or to turn it off? | 04:59 |
| spiker611 | 1wizard1 did that fix it? | 04:59 |
| XiXaQ | mindframe, I'm using that too. But how come they differ so much? | 04:59 |
| usser | tony_: u here? | 04:59 |
| XiXaQ | mindframe, and how can I see where the ram goes? | 04:59 |
| tony_ | usser: Thanks -- okay, I'm up | 04:59 |
| danny3793 | usser: is there anyway i can get my data off my / from LiveCD? it wont let me read it | 05:00 |
| DShepherd | Jban, alt-f2, gtk-window-decorator --replace should bring back your ubuntu window borders.. i think | 05:00 |
| Bruno | I installed ubuntu studio in one partition but due to several problems it did not work and i decided to just install it from synaptic. However, while installing studio it also installed a new GRUB. if i delete the partition where studio is now, that GRUB will be deleted, but will my past GRUB work? | 05:00 |
| danny3793 | usser: even though under perms it says Read-Only.. | 05:00 |
| kkathman | Jban, theres a way to use the gtk-theme manager but I dunno | 05:00 |
| tony_ | usser: Sorry, had to add vga=792 | 05:00 |
| mindrape | XiXaQ - well, free is the most accurate. top only shows you the info for the main process, don't think it captures some subsystem/kernel memory usage | 05:00 |
| lwizardl | spiker611, yes it did i just customized that theme and used the colors i wanted | 05:00 |
| mindrape | processes rather. | 05:00 |
| RHLinuxGU1 | I am having a problem with my restricted driver installer utility. Whenever I try to install a driver, it tells me "The software source for the package : SOME_DRIVER is not enabled" It does that for all the restricted hardware that I want to install using that utility. Why is this? | 05:00 |
| spiker611 | 1wizard1 excellent I'll do that to mine when I get the chance | 05:00 |
| usser | tony_: u booted livecd? | 05:00 |
| usser | tony_: or u fixed it? | 05:00 |
| mindrape | XiXaQ - man free man top... should give you some more history | 05:00 |
| tony_ | usser: it's loading -- almost done | 05:00 |
| jonjon09 | I have been trying all evening to fix my laptop... I really need help to reinstal ubuntu 7.04 over 7.10 without loosing all my stuff | 05:00 |
| kkathman | Jban, you might try going to #ubuntu-effects and ask there | 05:00 |
| DShepherd | XiXaQ, System -- Administration -- system monitor, Resources Tab | 05:00 |
| XiXaQ | mindframe, but how come System Monitor displays so _extremely_ different rsults? | 05:00 |
| gellioth | my gutsy gibon isnt recognizing my USB memory... any help? | 05:00 |
| tony_ | usser: No, I have definitely not fixed it | 05:01 |
| spiker611 | jonjon09 you can just update 7.04 | 05:01 |
| usser | danny3793: should be how do u acces your / partition? | 05:01 |

| HealthyElijah | i just upgraded to 7.10 and now I do not have window controls , minimize maximize close etc? Please help | 05:01 |
| spiker611 | gellioth USB memory? | 05:01 |
| XiXaQ | DShepherd, that's the thing. System monitor shows a ram usage of 200. Top and Free sais 700. | 05:01 |
| tony_ | usser: Thanks so much for helping...It should be loaded up in a second | 05:01 |
| Bruno | I installed ubuntu studio in one partition but due to several problems it did not work and i decided to just install it from synaptic. However, while installing studio it also installed a new GRUB. if i delete the partition where studio is now, that GRUB will be deleted, but will my past GRUB work? | 05:01 |
| usser | danny3793: did u mount it at all or u're trying to copy from livecd "/" | 05:01 |

| RHLinuxGU1 | I am having a problem with my restricted driver installer utility. Whenever I try to install a driver, it tells me "The software source for the package : SOME_DRIVER is not enabled" It does that for all the restricted hardware that I want to install using that utility. Why is this? | 05:02 |
| spiker611 | jonjon09 sorry misread, there is no easy way to downgrade | 05:02 |
| gellioth | spike611: yes! | 05:02 |
| usser | danny3793: hm not enough info, so u have two harddrives plugged in right | 05:02 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno I want to keep all my stuff, not reinstall and format the drive if possible | 05:02 |

| Jban | kkathman: I cant get it to change | 05:03 |
| tony_ | usser: Okay, it's up. I should let you know that this all happened because I installed ndiswrapper according to the HOWTO in the help.ubuntu.com pages. It worked perfectly once, but this time I think I screwed up | 05:03 |

| RHLinuxGU1 | ------ I am having a problem with my restricted driver installer utility. Whenever I try to install a driver, it tells me "The software source for the package : SOME_DRIVER is not enabled" It does that for all the restricted hardware that I want to install using that utility. Why is this? ------ | 05:05 |
| usser | danny3793: first u need to figure out which hdd in /dev is your / | 05:05 |
| usser | danny3793: nowadays almost all hdds are sda's in /dev | 05:06 |
| eyemean | thank you HealthyElijah, will check it out | 05:06 |
| danny3793 | usser: also, the LiveCD keeps locking my system up to where it is non responsive, or it just restarts, even when i add pci=noacpi to the boot options, and im not sure what to do | 05:06 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | :( | 05:06 |
| HealthyElijah | eyemean: It does not appear to be included with openoffice | 05:06 |
| danny3793 | usser: yes i believe my hard drive is sda in /dev | 05:06 |
| usser | danny3793: heh omg | 05:06 |
| Bruno | jonjon: yeah i think that could work | 05:06 |
| Jban | Question: I was having some driver issues... and now, when I turned my effects back on in Appearance, my window borders are red even though I am using the Human Theme in Ubuntu7.10 . I have COmpiz-Fusion and Emerald theme maanger on... is there a conflict and how to I get it to go abck to looking like a normal human theme and using compiz only | 05:06 |
| gellioth | spiker611: nothing... | 05:06 |
| usser | danny3793: ok so do sudo mount /dev/sda[n] /mnt | 05:06 |
| HealthyElijah | why did an upgrade from 7.10 get rid of my window borders | 05:06 |
| spiker611 | gellioth nothing happens? | 05:06 |
| danny3793 | usser: yeah, i dont know what to do =\, i have tried using vesa, nv, i have tried everything i can think of, it seems to be a graphical error, or corruption | 05:07 |
| eyemean | HealthyElijah, yeah just checked, is there a way i can get hold of it pls? | 05:07 |
| HealthyElijah | and how do i get itham back? | 05:07 |
| usser | danny3793: [n] supposed to be the number of your \ partition | 05:07 |
| Bruno | jonjon: if not, you could make a partition in your disk, put everything there, and format the other partition to 7.4 | 05:07 |
| DShepherd | Jban, Jban ???? I answered you | 05:07 |
| danny3793 | usser: ok im writing that down, so hopefully i can use it when i finally get 7.10 to stop system locking | 05:07 |
| tony_ | usser: Okay, it's http://pastebin.com/m2336e1c3 | 05:07 |
| gellioth | spiker611: yes nothing | 05:07 |
| Jban | DSsheperd: Sorry please repeat I did not see it. | 05:07 |
| DShepherd | Jban, alt-f2, gtk-window-decorator --replace should bring back your ubuntu window borders | 05:07 |
| spiker611 | gellioth sorry I must leave now, good luck | 05:07 |
| gellioth | spiker611: ok thanks | 05:08 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno I have 3 partitions on my drive, 2 small ones for windows and one big one for ubuntu | 05:08 |
| Jban | DShepherd: You are the man | 05:08 |
| usser | danny3793: heh, if u dont know which [n] is your root just keep trying different one then cd /mnt and do ls until u see familiar directories | 05:08 |
| kkathman | yeah thats it :) | 05:08 |
| DShepherd | Jban, you think so? | 05:08 |
| usser | danny3793: if its not familiar sudo umount /mnt and mount the next number | 05:08 |
| DShepherd | Jban, i think your right :-) | 05:09 |
| Bruno | jonjon: if your files dont fit in your flash drive, you could make one temporary partition to put all your files there, while you format the other partition to 7.4 | 05:09 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | i need to install xmms offline how to do that? | 05:09 |
| usser | danny3793: after u mounted / to mnt | 05:09 |
| danny3793 | usser: i believe its sda1, i only have one internal drive :P | 05:09 |
| Jban | DShepherd: Not really. But it is still using stupid Emerald. How do I disable that? | 05:09 |
| usser | danny3793: sudo mkdir /newhdd | 05:09 |
| HealthyElijah | DShepherd: alt+f2 isnt even working anymore | 05:09 |
| don-o | Don-UbuntuNewbie: download the .deb file | 05:09 |
| usser | danny3793: so ok sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt | 05:09 |
| danny3793 | usser: the mounted info doesnt go to /media/(name)? | 05:09 |
| usser | danny3793: your external if pbbly sdb | 05:09 |
| usser | danny3793: no | 05:09 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | wher do download don-o | 05:10 |
| DShepherd | Jban, uninstall emerald maybe? | 05:10 |
| DShepherd | HealthyElijah, what are you talking about? | 05:10 |
| don-o | Don-UbuntuNewbie: search packages.ubuntu.com | 05:10 |
| usser | danny3793: so do sudo mkdir /nehdd | 05:10 |
| danny3793 | usser: thats where gutsy is placing it lol, in the media directory when i use right click instead of terminal | 05:10 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | ok wait | 05:10 |
| usser | danny3793: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /nehdd | 05:10 |
| HealthyElijah | i cant get alt+F2 to even work to put the command in for my window decoratpr | 05:10 |
| usser | danny3793: and then just do sudo cp /mnt/* /newhdd | 05:10 |
| kkathman | DShepherd, I would think that if you run the gtk-window-decorator that should undo the "emerald --replace" | 05:10 |
| rockets | It just took 3 hours to copy 12gb to an external drive via usb 2.0 | 05:10 |
| rockets | how can rsync be that slow? | 05:10 |
| Jban | DShepherd: It took some figuring out how to put it on, arg haha... There is no way to make it just use Ghnome Ubuntu's look? | 05:10 |
| usser | that should copy the stuff | 05:10 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno how come they wont let us downgrade? | 05:11 |
| dburger | can anyone make heads or tails of this installation failure doing sudo apt-get install ecb: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41634/ | 05:11 |
| usser | tony_: u still here sorry | 05:11 |
| tony_ | usser: Yep, np | 05:11 |
| Bruno | jonjon: i dont know, i guess not a lot of people want to downgrade | 05:11 |
| DShepherd | Jban, gtk-window-decorator is the only trick i know | 05:11 |
| DShepherd | kkathman, ok | 05:11 |
| Pseudoryx | HI everyone, is the new kernel 2.6.23 avaliable for Ubuntu yet? | 05:11 |
| tony_ | usser: I just want to try to do this without reinstalling! | 05:11 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | don-o what's the next step? | 05:11 |
| rockets | Pseudoryx, kernel upgrades dont happen | 05:11 |
| usser | tony_: so one of those four sda's with number is your root so we need to figure out which one | 05:11 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno I found a page telling how to downgrade but it didnt work for me | 05:11 |
| usser | tony_: yea i get it :) | 05:11 |
| rockets | Pseudoryx, it will never be availible in gusty | 05:12 |
| BHSPitMonkey | Pseudoryx, I don't think odd-numbered kernels are even built for ubuntu. | 05:12 |
| furenku | Has anyone tried luck in Gutsy with PureData? | 05:12 |
| danny3793 | usser: alright i got it all down, now time to figure out why my system is locking up | 05:12 |

| klos | danyone else have major issues with the new openoffice | 05:12 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DowngradeHowto | 05:12 |
| MasterShrek | Pseudoryx, no, but u can compile it yourself if you so please | 05:12 |
| usser | tony_: so do sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt | 05:12 |
| kkathman | Jban, run the gtk-window-decorator, then go to your themes and choose one | 05:12 |
| usser | tony_: then cd /mnt | 05:12 |
| Gun_Smoke | Well I guess I can't exactly mess anything up too bad trying right? lol can always reinstall. | 05:12 |
| rockets | BHSPitMonkey, it makes no difference, even if they were, kernel versions are never changed within one release | 05:12 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | don-o what's the next step? | 05:12 |
| usser | tony_: and ls | 05:12 |
| klos | it happens often that i want to open the menu and it just freezes | 05:12 |
| klos | i delte a one page letter right now :-/ | 05:12 |
| klos | shit | 05:12 |
| usser | tony_: if u see stuff like /usr /bin /home /root there this is it | 05:12 |
| Pseudoryx | does new kernel 2.6.23 will improve Linux speed and performance ? | 05:12 |
| kkathman | Jban, i.e. system -preferences-appearance | 05:13 |
| don-o | Don-UbuntuNewbie: thats all the advice i have. | 05:13 |
| clusty | Pseudoryx: most likely not. might fix bugs or add hardware support | 05:13 |
| Bruno | jonjon: as i read it, it wouldnt downgrade, but im no expert in this | 05:13 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | double click the file don-o? | 05:13 |
| clusty | Pseudoryx: might also break existing hardware support | 05:13 |
| trogdor | Pseudoryx: read the changelogs for it at www.kernel.org | 05:13 |
| Pseudoryx | thanks alot | 05:14 |
| clusty | Pseudoryx: you can go back anywys | 05:14 |
| Bruno | jonjon: what i would do is place all my files on a safe place (wheather a flash drive or a partition) and make a fresh install of 7.4 | 05:14 |
| Jban | kkathman: what do I do in appearance? It doesnt keep it from using Emerald. If you could be more specific. Do I do the "gtk-window-decorator" by pressing alt+f2 ? | 05:14 |
| tony_ | usser: Yes, it's sda1 | 05:14 |
| clusty | Pseudoryx: if it breaks something | 05:14 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | double click the file don-o?? | 05:14 |
| weltschmerz | anyone know how to make firefox play sound? | 05:14 |
| usser | tony_: now are u sure? | 05:14 |
| usser | tony_: 100% | 05:14 |
| Bruno | donubuntu: why dont you just install from synaptic? | 05:14 |
| kkathman | Jban, yes thats what DShepherd told you to do | 05:14 |
| Pseudoryx | Any tutorial for ubuntu to upgrade to new kernel 2.6.23? | 05:14 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno yea I would if I knew I wouldnt have to reinstall all my drivers and stuff after | 05:14 |
| tony_ | usser: let me check | 05:14 |
| dEn_ | hi on kernel.org it says the latest version of the kernel is 2.6.23.1 but my kernel on ubuntu drapper shows 2.6.15.29-386 . why is my kernel not the latest , how often does automatic updates update the kernel can we upgrade without any probelms ? | 05:14 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | i dnt have net connection in our home Bruno | 05:15 |
| jonjon09 | I remember it took forever and I had a lot of problem to get my wireless adapter and my webcam to work | 05:15 |
| HealthyElijah | DShepherd: Thanks that got my windows borders back!! Is it normal for it to default to no windows borders? Do most of you guys have no windows borders? | 05:15 |
| nemo_home | ok, I "fixed" my mom's machine by symlinking the /sbin/ipw3459d for older kernel version to newer. but I'd dearly love to know why it didn't update, what package owns that, and how I could fix it properly for future kernel updates | 05:15 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | all i want to do is download the isntallers | 05:15 |
| Bruno | jonjon: sorry, dont know any other way to donwgrade | 05:15 |
| Jban | kkathman: I did the decoder command, and now correct you are right, it looks like the human theme... but it doesnt look like the normal Gnome HUman, it has that Emeraldy look to it. | 05:15 |
| clusty | dEn_: you have dapper? | 05:15 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | and copy it to my usb flashdisk | 05:15 |
| DDD707_ | Evening. | 05:15 |
| theservercrashed | is there a backup maker? like the WHOLE install? | 05:15 |
| dEn_ | yes clusty | 05:15 |
| TECH_ | I am giving away (all) of my Microsoft crapware free (wink wink)..anyone interested. | 05:15 |
| DShepherd | HealthyElijah, not sure. did you upgrade? | 05:15 |
| reaper | dEn_: if you have dapper, they keep the kernel stable, and only bugfix | 05:15 |
| tony_ | usser: No, sda1 is the liveCD | 05:15 |
| HealthyElijah | DShepherd: Yes I upgraded | 05:15 |
| nefoia | blah | 05:15 |
| usser | TECH_: whats there? | 05:15 |
| threeseas | trying to use the live cd to save personal files including "." files from a bad gutsy install.... what is teh sheel command to run the cd/dvd creator with sudo? | 05:15 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno are the firefox bookmarks in /home ? | 05:15 |
| kkathman | Jban, I suggest you ask in #ubuntu-effects :) | 05:15 |
| Jban | lol ok | 05:16 |
| towlie | my external usb hard drive used to automount when i plugged it in but now it doesnt anymore but i can still mount it manually. where do i look to find the automount settings ? | 05:16 |
| DShepherd | HealthyElijah, you used compiz from before? cause if you did it maybe reading some of your old settings. but that is just a guess | 05:16 |
| clusty | dEn_: you are running an ancient ubuntu | 05:16 |
| danny3793 | usser: do you think running memtest on my computer would fix my system lockups? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=3399294&postcount=4 | 05:16 |
| clusty | dEn_: you are two versions behind | 05:16 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | all i want to do is download the installers, and save it to my flash drive so that i can install it at home is that posible? | 05:16 |
| dEn_ | yes but this has support for 2 years right ? | 05:16 |
| HealthyElijah | DShepherd: yes i had compiz fusion installed before | 05:16 |
| clusty | dEn_: dapper might not be supported anymore. dunno eaxctly | 05:16 |
| Jban | kkathman: But I have an emotional bond to this channel since it's where I always have issues and it's like going to see the psychologist. | 05:16 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | because i dont have net connection at home | 05:16 |
| usser | tony_: hm.. ok sudo umount /mnt | 05:16 |
| usser | tony_: and mount the next one | 05:16 |
| Jban | :P | 05:16 |
| HealthyElijah | DShepherd: i had them showing before but who knows | 05:16 |
| Bruno | jonjon: yes | 05:17 |
| nemo_home | danny3793: that forum post is wrong about one thing, with "badram" mask one can use memtest to "fix" lockups | 05:17 |
| TECH_ | Vista did it again last night: They infiltrated everyones machine with bogus updates @ 3 in the morning. | 05:17 |
| DShepherd | HealthyElijah, I am glad everything is good now | 05:17 |
| kkathman | Jban, thats ok, you can just join that other channel briefly to get your compiz-questions answered :) | 05:17 |
| Bruno | check them in ~/.mozilla | 05:17 |

| Bruno | don-ubuntu: yes | 05:17 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | no codec needed Bruno? | 05:17 |
| nemo_home | danny3793: badram - is a kernel patch that allows the kernel to mask off bad sectors | 05:18 |
| clusty | dEn_: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 05:18 |
| Bruno | jonjon: cant you just right click and delete | 05:18 |
| Bruno | ? | 05:18 |
| bjb1959 | I am setting up an actiontec dsl modem/router set up for PPPoA that has a connection, I can ping web sites and it resolves the name to an ip address but can't browse with firefox. any ideas? | 05:18 |

| usser | dEn_: haha no CPU | 05:19 |
| danny3793 | nemo_home: oh, well i dont think it is my RAM, but perhaps it is. My system locks up when i use the LiveCD for 7.10, and it only does it when at the desktop and Xserver is running, i can use Ctrl+Alt+F4 just fine without lockup, what do you think may be wrong? | 05:19 |
| clusty | dEn_: upgrade dude | 05:19 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | where to get that file bruno | 05:19 |
| theservercrashed | i need...UbuntuGhost! | 05:19 |

| nemo_home | but, yeah, no idea really | 05:19 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | im currently browsing packages.ubuntu.com | 05:19 |

| eyemean | jdk-1_5_0_13-dlj-linux-i586.bin | 05:20 |
| DShepherd | the_blur, are you running gutsy? if you are and your machine is capable... then you should be enable it via system-preferences-appearances. select the visual effects tab | 05:20 |
| Bruno | don-ubuntu or google gstreamer | 05:20 |
| danny3793 | nemo_home: its an entire system lockup, i cant do anything, and these lines of random colors appear and such, sometimes red, sometimes green, etc etc | 05:20 |
| bjb1959 | I am setting up an actiontec dsl modem/router set up for PPPoA that has a connection, I can ping web sites and it resolves the name to an ip address but can't browse with firefox. any ideas? | 05:20 |

| Don-UbuntuNewbie | Bruno how to install that offline | 05:20 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | no internet connection here at home | 05:20 |
| TECH_ | To get the codecs: U need to open (totem (movie plater) with a link and it will install the codec. | 05:20 |
| danny3793 | nemo_home: sometimes it instantly does it upon reaching the desktop, and restarts my computer and causes it to go into 'safemode' | 05:20 |
| HealthyElijah | DShepherd: i have window borders but as soon as I close the terminal then it resets back to no window borders. | 05:20 |

| warden007 | hey. so i used synaptic to install emerald. but there are no themes listed in the program. what am i missing? | 05:21 |
| Bruno | don-ubuntu: what i would do is download the package and then install it on the offline computer | 05:21 |
| danny3793 | nemo_home: i havent tried, nor do i know what that is, but i doubt it will, how can i try it? | 05:21 |

| opendoor | 睡会说汉语？ | 05:21 |
| nemo_home | danny3793: alt + sysrq + s <- sync | 05:21 |
| DShepherd | HealthyElijah, oh. about that... do that terminal thingy again... and then alt+f2 and gtk-window-decorator --replace. It should live this time when the terminal is closed | 05:22 |
| nemo_home | danny3793: alt + sysrq + u <- unmount | 05:22 |
| clusty | Jordan_U: i am getting dizzy reading all this text | 05:22 |
| Madpilot | opendoor, English here, please | 05:22 |
| nemo_home | danny3793: alt + sysrq + b <- reboot | 05:22 |
| bjb1959 | I am setting up an actiontec dsl modem/router set up for PPPoA that has a connection, I can ping web sites and it resolves the name to an ip address but can't browse with firefox. any ideas? | 05:22 |

| Don-UbuntuNewbie | ok thanks | 05:24 |
| gibbontree | is there a way to get a vista like start menu in gutsy | 05:24 |
| usser | bjb1959: maybe firefox has some sort of proxy setup, check the settings | 05:24 |
| usser | tony_: ok now do sudo dpkg --purge ndiswrapper | 05:24 |
| bjb1959 | usser: no proxy, direct connection | 05:24 |
| MasterShrek | gibbontree, why? vistas menu sucks | 05:24 |
| towlie | my external usb hard drive used to automount when i plugged it in but now it doesnt anymore but i can still mount it manually. where do i look to find the automount settings ? when i plug in the drive i get an error that the drive cant be automounted | 05:24 |
| clusty | nemo_home: #ubuntu is a support channel, this means lots of people are asking questions. We do our best to answer them all but are not omniscient. If you don't get answers immediately, please wait a few minutes before asking again. If it's busy: wait even longer. If no one answers: don't get mad, maybe no one who is around right now knows. You can always try the [WWW] ubuntu-users mailinglist. | 05:24 |
| llua | hello all | 05:24 |
| danny3793 | nemo_home: nope, it did nothing | 05:24 |
| usser | bjb1959: is there another network card in your system? | 05:24 |
| llua | i have been having problems with firefox crashing all the time, any suggestions | 05:25 |
| bjb1959 | usser: no | 05:25 |
| MasterShrek | gibbontree, and im not even saying that becuase i dont like windows, i mean its really hard to find things in that menu | 05:25 |
| llua | ? | 05:25 |
| Jordan_U | In trying to dist-upgrade to Gutsy ( because update-manager "can't calculate the upgrade" there are many packages that "will be held back", can anyone help me figure out why they are going to be held back? Here is the output from apt-get, I have not performed the upgrade http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41624/ | 05:25 |
| ndan | man this sucks i really want to be able to listen to music | 05:25 |
| gibbontree | MasteShrek, is there anything more graphical or better organized than the default ubuntu menu? | 05:25 |
| usser | bjb1959: did u try other browsers they work? | 05:25 |
| DShepherd | llua, some cool firefox extension not so kool maybe? | 05:25 |
| Bruno | don-ubuntu: irc://irc.freenode.net/gstreamer | 05:25 |
| tony_ | usser: Uh oh. It said "ignoring request to remove ndiswrapper which isn't installed" | 05:25 |
| usser | tony_: hm | 05:25 |
| tony_ | usser: That must be the wrong drive | 05:25 |
| koshari | ndan, have you tried amarok, | 05:25 |
| bjb1959 | usser: no other browsers work. can ping fine but can't browse | 05:25 |
| danny3793 | nemo_home: do you have any idea what would work for X? I have tried vesa and nv, those are the only ones i really know about lol | 05:25 |
| joanki | i think definitely ubuntu does not like hibernation | 05:25 |
| nemo_home | well. clusty was a master at stating the obvious I already knew. good riddance to him | 05:25 |
| usser | tony_: probably | 05:25 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | ehe | 05:25 |
| MasterShrek | gibbontree, if u are in kde you can get kooldock which is like mac's little program bar, and kde4 is going to have a new and improved menu i guess | 05:26 |
| llua | Dsheperd: i got no extensions | 05:26 |
| DShepherd | joanki, i agree | 05:26 |
| ndan | koshari my sound drivers won't work :-\ | 05:26 |
| llua | Dsheperd: let me see | 05:26 |
| usser | tony_: crap | 05:26 |
| joanki | not only that, | 05:26 |
| DShepherd | llua, well i really dont know then | 05:26 |
| Jordan_U | gibbontree, I personally think the categorized menu in Gnome is much better than the start menu in Vista but you can try SUSE's menu | 05:26 |
| usser | tony_: do ls /dev/hd* | 05:26 |
| joanki | but ubuntu does not like other desktop themes | 05:26 |
| MasterShrek | gibbontree, as far as gnome, i dont really know, or really pay attention for that matter | 05:26 |
| usser | tony_: do u have any of those | 05:26 |
| nemo_home | danny3793: typically you want bare bones. if vesa doesn't work, well... | 05:26 |
| koshari | what sound chipset have you got? | 05:26 |
| joanki | not only that but ubuntu does not like embedded videos | 05:26 |
| Bruno | jonjon: maybe you should | 05:26 |
| ndan | realtek alc861 | 05:26 |
| nemo_home | danny3793: might be interesting to launch X from a remote machine though | 05:26 |
| DShepherd | joanki, i am not sure about that one | 05:26 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, I have no problem with any of those :) | 05:26 |
| nemo_home | that way if it locks things up at least you'd know at what point | 05:26 |
| gibbontree | MasterShrek, i am just looking for something that looks a little better than just text | 05:26 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | thanks bruno | 05:26 |

| joanki | not to be rude | 05:27 |
| usser | tony_: nah thats not it | 05:27 |
| nemo_home | danny3793: I guess. but I meant more, ssh into your machine, launch X, see what scrolls by and when it locks up | 05:27 |

| ndan | koshari i installed realtek-linux-audiopack-4.07a which was supposed to fix it... but instead of drivers that didn't work (no sound) like i had... i now have no drivers recognized by the system | 05:27 |
| gibbontree | MasterShrek, how do i enable that, and what is different between gnome and kde? | 05:27 |
| joanki | Jordan_U, i can't play some videos online | 05:27 |
| danny3793 | nemo_home: how can i do that? im on XP right now | 05:27 |
| Jordan_U | eton, Try the intel drivers | 05:27 |
| nemo_home | putty | 05:27 |
| MasterShrek | joanki, stop trolling, if u need help or are going to help someone then do it, but stop complaining. join #ubuntu-offtopic for that | 05:28 |
| danny3793 | nemo_home: i should use putty? | 05:28 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno ok Ill save both. im trying to drag and drop the folders in ubuntu into my windows partitions which are on the desktop but it doesnt really work | 05:28 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, Have you tried right clicking and playing them in totem? Totem should install the needed codecs and then they should play in browser next time you try | 05:28 |
| joanki | i downloaded vlc | 05:28 |
| usser | tony_: ok do sudo dpkg -l | grep anypackage_u_installed_that_is_not_on_livecd_for_sure | 05:28 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | thanks bruno but no one is replying to that channel | 05:28 |
| nemo_home | danny3793: well, if you want to connect in and see what it is doing. could launch X from putty. just a suggestion. | 05:28 |
| joanki | totem? | 05:28 |
| joanki | better than vlc? | 05:28 |
| MasterShrek | gibbontree, its a different desktop environment, things will look different, and youll use alot of different gui programs, although you can still use the ones you are using now | 05:28 |
| Bruno | jonjon: that will not work since the wondows partition is NTFS and read-only | 05:28 |
| eton | Jordan_U, thanks | 05:28 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, The default movie player | 05:28 |
| danny3793 | nemo_home: thats better than not knowing anything, ill try to find that right now | 05:28 |
| nemo_home | danny3793: oh, and there are some kernel options which I've found helped with my crappy vid card and X stability - stuff like irqpoll | 05:28 |

| tony_ | usser: Hey, I just noticed, I skipped the "unmount" part of your initial instructions! Sorry | 05:29 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno oh ok will it work if I copy it onto the flash drive and then from the flash drive to the partition? | 05:29 |

| Juno | !Sound | 05:29 |
| 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 | 05:29 |

| ubotu | kkathman: 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 | 05:45 |
| tony_ | MasterShrek: Sorry, but I messed up my ndiswrapper install, and now I can't boot | 05:45 |
| joanki | Jordan_U, i get: the swap file or partition that was found.... is not active. | 05:45 |
| kc | yeah i know but the screwy thing is that i am now "rolled" back and the program is installed and everything is as i left it but now i have wireless drivers | 05:45 |
| Bruno | toby: dont know how to fix, but prolly has something to do with your .profile file | 05:45 |
| kkathman | yes yes yes I said its volatile hydrogen | 05:45 |
| sanzky | hi, does anyone know howto make java applications stop using the gtk theme under gutsy? | 05:45 |
| joanki | Jordan_U, ..... continue without a valid swap space? | 05:45 |
| hydrogen | kkathman: you can just run sudo passwd root if you really want it | 05:45 |
| kc | however i will put server back on | 05:45 |
| hydrogen | kkathman: I thought the factoid told you that | 05:46 |
| toby | bruno when I hit esc it will stop for a second and start back | 05:46 |
| YokoZar | I had an application crash and now my mouse won't move, but everything else seems fine in X. Is there a terminal command to reload the mouse subsystem? | 05:46 |
| Bruno | jonjon: have you checked the permissions for the drive | 05:46 |
| fxfitz | Can anyone point me to a guide for manual partitioning on the gutsy alternative CD? | 05:46 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, I don't know, it probably has to do with the modification you made | 05:46 |
| MasterShrek | tony_, try blacklisting ndiswrapper | 05:46 |
| Don-UbuntuNewbie | waaaaaaaaahh | 05:46 |
| joanki | ok going back to fix it | 05:46 |
| tony_ | MasterShrek: How do I do that from the liveCD? | 05:46 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno I dont even know how to but it used to work just fine when I plugged it in it would come up by itself | 05:46 |
| Jban | X File Question: How do i get it to save my configuration to a backup X File? I tried in the nvidia-settings and it just says "Unable to create new X config backup file" | 05:46 |
| MasterShrek | !blacklist | tony_ | 05:47 |
| ubotu | tony_: 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 » | 05:47 |
| toby | bruno it also happens in windows in word the esc will flasha and highlight everything | 05:47 |
| Evanlec | Jban, run nvidia-settings as root | 05:47 |
| MasterShrek | tony_, youll need to mount your ubuntu partition and go edit that file | 05:47 |
| Jban | Evanlec: Could you tell me how? I am a new user; I apologize. | 05:47 |
| hydrogen | Jban: gksudo nvidia-settings | 05:47 |
| Bruno | jonjon: i dont know what could be your problem | 05:47 |
| Sgt | o wow im an idiot, i had started downloading the torrent version of the dvd earlier and was getting slow speeds so i cancelled it and downloaded of thier servers, i was trying to burn the cencelled file instead of the other one | 05:47 |
| Jban | hydrogen: In terminal? do I need to put a sudo infront? | 05:47 |
| Evanlec | Jban, sudo nvidia-settings from a terminal | 05:47 |
| Jban | ok | 05:48 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno Ill try getting the stuff from the live cd maybe? | 05:48 |
| Bruno | toby: what do you mmean it also happens on windows, as in windows XP? | 05:48 |
| tony_ | MasterShrek: Sorry, total newbie here, how do I figure out which is my Ubuntu partition? | 05:48 |
| hydrogen | Jban: in terminal or from alt->f2 | 05:48 |
| toby | yes sorry | 05:48 |
| IdleOne | Sgt: :) | 05:48 |
| hydrogen | Evanlec: you should use gksudo when running X11 apps | 05:48 |
| kc | mastershrek there is a fourth option uder synaptic package manager and that is the one source file do i need that as well? | 05:48 |
| freakabcd | ubuntu+1 is going to be 'Hardy ...' ?? | 05:48 |
| Evanlec | hydrogen, this is true ;p | 05:48 |
| Bruno | jonjon: getting what stuff from the live cd? | 05:48 |
| hydrogen | Hardy Heron | 05:48 |
| IdleOne | freakabcd: yes | 05:48 |
| freakabcd | uh.. | 05:48 |
| freakabcd | why not skip H since we had hoary? | 05:48 |
| MasterShrek | fdisk -l, its probably the biggest one that is listed that is not of type ntfs | 05:48 |
| hydrogen | Hardy Hippo just didn't make it :/ | 05:48 |
| Sgt | lol IdleOne i went to download the file again and it said it already existed so i was like what i just deleted it | 05:48 |
| toby | bruno yes XP professional | 05:48 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno the home file...or can I get it while logged in to windows? | 05:48 |
| hydrogen | or Hungry Horsefly | 05:49 |
| fabio | ola | 05:49 |
| Bruno | toby: prolly something with your keyboard then | 05:49 |
| dstadulis | anyone have an idea on this error? :Could not grab your mouse. | A malicious client may be eavesdropping on your session or you may have just clicked a menu or some application just decided to get focus. | 05:49 |
| freakabcd | Hungry Hippo | 05:49 |
| Madpilot | hydrogen, there was some rooting for Horny Heifer | 05:49 |
| MasterShrek | kc, you might, but dont install it unless it doesnt work without it | 05:49 |
| freakabcd | Madpilot, who is Heifer? | 05:49 |
| fabio | how i can reset the ubuntu | 05:49 |
| fabio | to the deflaut | 05:49 |
| freakabcd | i don;t know anyone of that name | 05:49 |
| Bruno | jonjon: you cant access linux patitions from XP, and the live CD only comes with the stuff needed to install the distro it holds | 05:49 |
| toby | bruno what could it possiably be with my keyboard | 05:49 |
| kkathman | hydrogen, and hardy heron DID make it ? | 05:49 |
| Madpilot | freakabcd, a heifer is a cow | 05:50 |
| hydrogen | kkathman: yes. | 05:50 |
| toby | i have been at a loss | 05:50 |
| Jban | hydrogen: It allowed me to click Save to X Config without any errors. Newbie Question follow-up: Is that saving a backup config to load if anything ever goes wrong in the future? | 05:50 |
| kkathman | lol ok | 05:50 |
| freakabcd | Bruno, use explore2fs to access ext2/3 partitions in windows | 05:50 |
| Jordan_U | Madpilot, You know that in 26 releases , when we have to use three word names, it will be "hungry hungry hippo" :) | 05:50 |
| dvdgorila | has anyone compiled the latest gtkpod? | 05:50 |
| fabio | any one know how to reset ubuntu to deflaut settings? | 05:50 |
| hydrogen | Jban: I think | 05:50 |
| freakabcd | Madpilot, lol.. | 05:50 |
| Bruno | toby: it is misconfigured or somethig, i really dont know how to fix it | 05:50 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno yes I know but cant I go on the live cd to fing the home file from the hard disk? | 05:50 |
| Madpilot | Jordan_U, we've got 13 yrs to come up with something more elegant than that... | 05:50 |
| Bruno | feedbackcd: kk thanks | 05:50 |
| toby | ahhhhh this sucks | 05:50 |
| hydrogen | Jban: it should be located in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup | 05:50 |
| kc | also i have been having some issues with my wireless card drivers every time i update something on my machine i lose something to do with my connection, is there some way i can get my drivers so that they dont always delete themselves after an update??? | 05:50 |
| freakabcd | Bruno, feedbackcd ?? wow | 05:50 |
| fabio | any one know how to reset ubuntu to deflaut settings? | 05:50 |
| Jban | hydrogen: how do I navigate to that direction? | 05:51 |

| tony_ | MasterShrek: It's definitely sda1. WHat next? | 05:51 |
| toby | Does anyone know how to configure keyboard or fix issues | 05:51 |
| Flannel | fabio: what are you trying to reset? | 05:51 |
| Bruno | jonjon: freakabcd: Bruno, use explore2fs to access ext2/3 partitions in windows | 05:51 |
| bulmer | fabio: your new selections is now the default values | 05:51 |
| Bruno | jonjon: try that, maybe it will work | 05:51 |
| fabio | flannel i want to reset ubuntu | 05:52 |

| fabio | user confugurations | 05:53 |
| Jordan_U | In trying to dist-upgrade to Gutsy ( because update-manager "can't calculate the upgrade" there are many packages that "will be held back", can anyone help me figure out why they are going to be held back? Here is the output from apt-get, I have not performed the upgrade http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41624/ | 05:53 |
| freakabcd | jonjon09, it *does* work. explore2fs is available here: http://www.chrysocome.net/explore2fs | 05:53 |
| Jban | hydrogen: Thank you for your help, Hydro. | 05:53 |
| Evanlec | bahhh whats the cmd line to delete a directory entirely | 05:53 |
| jonjon09 | freakabcd thanks | 05:53 |
| Evanlec | sudo rmdir -ignore doesnt seem to work | 05:53 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, rm -r | 05:53 |
| Flannel | fabio: Easy. Delete all of the files/folders in your homedir that start with a . (like .gnome and stuff). You'll need to hit ctrl-H in nautilus to be able to see them | 05:53 |
| Evanlec | i do that and it just sits there... | 05:53 |
| MasterShrek | :) | 05:53 |
| Flannel | fabio: those files/folders are where all of your user configs are | 05:53 |
| kc | master ok now here is the funny question of the night are you ready, how do i set user premissions so that i can use the tool lol?? | 05:53 |
| Bruno | jonjon: http://www.chrysocome.net/explore2fs | 05:53 |
| Jban | Actually, I have one more question (General question): Is it just my eyes or are letters looking slightly blurry on occasion? | 05:54 |
| fabio | im sory is not the user confuguration | 05:54 |
| Madpilot | Evanlec, "rm -rf" - be careful with that, esp. if you stick sudo in front of it. | 05:54 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, rm -r /path/to/dir/ ? | 05:54 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno thanks also | 05:54 |
| Jban | How do I fix that? It is not consistently doing it. | 05:54 |
| fabio | i want the original confuguration | 05:54 |
| Evanlec | yea im using that mastershrek | 05:54 |
| Bruno | jonjon: np | 05:54 |
| eyemean | !Lucida fonts | 05:54 |

| the_blur | argh ... I got big time problem | 05:54 |

| TheShadow | I'm trying to an upgrade to gutsy and I keep getting failures to fetch some packages http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41639/ can any help me out as to why? | 05:55 |
| MasterShrek | Evanlec, you could just run: make clean | 05:55 |
| kc | how do i run a program with root premissions?? | 05:55 |
| Da1 | any one here speak finnish and english ? | 05:55 |
| Fryguy-- | kc: sudo | 05:55 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, well too late now ;p | 05:55 |
| MasterShrek | !sudo | 05:55 |
| the_blur | kc: suod programname | 05:55 |
| ubotu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 05:55 |
| atiredmachine | Does anybody know how to configure an application (specifically, Jack) to get realtime access without being root? I have the rt kernel installed. | 05:55 |
| atiredmachine | ? | 05:55 |
| MasterShrek | i spose Evanlec =) | 05:55 |
| Da1 | So no finnish people in here ? | 05:56 |
| === AutumnCat is now known as UUUUUUUU | ||
| kc | ok fryguy how do i tell the applications drop down to run something with sudo | 05:56 |
| dstadulis | what precautions should I take before upgrading to 7.10? | 05:56 |
| Fryguy-- | kc: ? what dropdown? | 05:56 |
| tony_ | MasterShrek: I added "blacklist ndiswrapper" to /etc/modprobe.d | 05:56 |
| kc | got it thank you all | 05:56 |
| Bruno | dstadulis make sure you have all the updates for 7.4 | 05:56 |
| fabio | Flannel se the pvt plz | 05:56 |
| the_blur | dstadulis, plenty of herbal tea and maybe some breathing exercises before you begin. | 05:56 |
| MasterShrek | tony_, did it allow you to boot? | 05:56 |
| kc | i am still in windows user mode sorry all i am thinking that all problems stem from the gui not the user like me right now | 05:57 |
| the_blur | also something to lower the blood pressure =p | 05:57 |
| dstadulis | the_blur: I'll do some yoga before | 05:57 |
| the_blur | hehehe | 05:57 |
| juannicolas | Hi, i'm running ubuntu server and I have DHCP,APACHE,SQUID,WEBMIN,proftp & Samba and everything works fine. The problem is when I do a file transffer from my server(ubuntu) all internet bandiwth for other computers is lost. Is like ubunut is giving all bandwith concentration to the file transffer. is there a way to manipulate that? | 05:57 |
| Jordan_U | atiredmachine, I don't know much about rt priority but I don't think that is possible to do while being secure | 05:57 |
| fabio | i want to restat to original settings of ubuntu | 05:57 |
| tony_ | MasterShrek: I haven't tried, but does that ndiswrapper entry need the version number in there? Like "blacklist ndiswrapper-1.48" | 05:57 |
| cgs_bob | hello all. I just booted the gutsy livecd and the resolution of my screen is low res (800x600). I have an ATI mobility radeon. will I have the same problem if I went ahead and install gutsy? | 05:57 |
| freakabcd | dstadulis, i'm going to do a fresh install. my box has been updated for many times since breezy | 05:57 |
| fabio | i want to restat to original settings of ubuntu how to do it???? | 05:57 |
| the_blur | cgs_bob I have the same issue | 05:57 |
| Fryguy-- | cgs_bob: nah, after you get the right drivers set up things will be fine | 05:58 |
| Jordan_U | atiredmachine, Because the task could simply never sleep and your system would never be able to regain control | 05:58 |
| the_blur | low graphics mode | 05:58 |
| the_blur | it's stuck | 05:58 |
| MasterShrek | tony_, no | 05:58 |
| the_blur | I can fix it but it just goers back | 05:58 |
| fabio | i want to restat to original settings of ubuntu | 05:58 |
| dstadulis | freakabcd: That's what I was thinking before right now I have some hickups whenever I boot ubuntu | 05:58 |
| freakabcd | the_blur, what do you mean you fix it? | 05:58 |
| fabio | any one can help me? | 05:58 |
| freakabcd | didn;t you just say its a live boot? | 05:58 |
| cgs_bob | Fryguy--: how do I get the right driver? | 05:58 |
| atiredmachine | Jordan_U, hmm... yeah, I can see that being a problem. But somehow it must be possible, because that's how people do real-time audio stuff, as far as I understand it. | 05:58 |
| the_blur | I fixed it by doing sudo gedit | 05:58 |
| koshari | fabio reverse what you have done, | 05:58 |
| fabio | yes | 05:58 |
| the_blur | then I browsed to /etc/X11 folder | 05:58 |
| freakabcd | the_blur, and then how did you test it? | 05:58 |
| fabio | yes koshari | 05:59 |
| koshari | otherwise check that the ubuntu desktop package is still installed | 05:59 |
| Jordan_U | atiredmachine, No, they use applications which use real time libraries | 05:59 |
| the_blur | opened xorg.conf.1 and copied contents | 05:59 |
| Fryguy-- | cgs_bob: it should just work automatically after you install. | 05:59 |
| feross | hey guys, just DL 64-bit ubuntu. Before I blow my system away and install it. Should I stick to the regular i386 version or go to 64? | 05:59 |
| Jordan_U | atiredmachine, The libraries have root privileges, the libraries do not | 05:59 |
| the_blur | then pasted them into xorg.conf | 05:59 |
| Jordan_U | atiredmachine, I mean the applications do not :) | 05:59 |
| freakabcd | the_blur, answer my new question! how did you test it to ensure that it works fine(i.e. better reso) | 05:59 |
| Jban | Why do some of my words look blurry to me? Is Emerald doing that? I had to enforece the gtk decoder but would it still be effecting the fonts? | 05:59 |
| Evanlec | feross, go for 64bit | 05:59 |
| the_blur | whatever, it didn't solve my issue, as I am again looking at the glory of 60Hz 800x600 display | 05:59 |
| marx2k_ | ok here's my problem: SAMBA is not showing its' workgroup on my network! See if this helps: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41640/ | 05:59 |
| atiredmachine | Jordan_U, yeah, hmm... well if I run Qjackctl as root I can set it to realtime mode, but if I run it normal, I can't. So that's my predicament at the moment. | 06:00 |
| the_blur | I'm looking for a permanent solution | 06:00 |
| Evanlec | MasterShrek, perhaps my last try wasnt successful because the vanilla kernel was lacking some of the patches that would be in a ubuntu kernel? | 06:00 |
| fabio | koshari se the pvt | 06:00 |
| freakabcd | the_blur, what did you change in the file then? maybe you need to change the driver (binary ati/amd driver?)P | 06:00 |
| jonjon09 | Bruno how can I copy stuff with that program | 06:00 |
| juannicolas | hum, think there is no help for me | 06:00 |
| Bruno | jonjon: i wouldt know, i didnt even know it existed | 06:00 |
| the_blur | I just copied the very first ubuntu config, which worked into the file. | 06:00 |
| freakabcd | the_blur, live boot is NOT a good method to gauge the effectiveness of changes to system properties | 06:01 |
| jonjon09 | ok | 06:01 |
| Bruno | jonjon: ask freakabcd | 06:01 |
| tony_ | MasterShrek: Dang, it's stuck in booting again. And I can tell that ndiswrapper is still activeated, because the light turned blue. I'll boot back into the liveCD right now | 06:01 |
| the_blur | live boot? | 06:01 |
| freakabcd | (display config) being one of them | 06:01 |
| RabidWeezle | hi, is it possible to run my laptop as a dns server so I can hook my laptop into my router via lan and suck off the hotel next door's wireless to my desktops? | 06:01 |
| the_blur | I have an installed system | 06:01 |
| fabio | Koshari soo??? | 06:01 |
| fabio | i want to restat to original settings of ubuntu | 06:01 |
| feross | Evanlec: There were some gotchas with 64 last time. Like flash wouldn't work and other stuff like that. Any of that now or are there simple workarounds for most issues? | 06:01 |
| RabidWeezle | as in wire my laptop to the wan | 06:01 |
| the_blur | installation was pretty smooth | 06:01 |
| cafuego | RabidWeezle: Of course. Check 'dnsmasq'. | 06:01 |
| jonjon09 | freakabcd do you know how to copy files from that program | 06:01 |
| freakabcd | jonjon09, select the file/dir you want. then right-click->export | 06:01 |
| RabidWeezle | thanks | 06:01 |
| the_blur | it's living with it that has consumed my last 2 days | 06:01 |
| the_blur | =) | 06:01 |
| Fryguy-- | feross: most of the 64-bit issues that were around a year ago are still around now. | 06:01 |
| Gun_Smoke | sudo /etc/init.d/xend restart = grep: /proc/xen/capabilities: No such file or directory What gives? I know /etc/init.d/xend is there. | 06:01 |
| Evanlec | feross, flash is no longer an issue, otherwise i havent had any problems | 06:02 |
| Jordan_U | atiredmachine, Doesn't look like there are many there but try #jack, but I think that jack itself needs to run as root | 06:02 |
| atiredmachine | feross, I'm running 64 bit and flash works mostly fine. | 06:02 |
| cafuego | feross: Java is still not much of a go, video and flash work OK these days. | 06:02 |
| fabio | i want to restat to original settings of ubuntu | 06:02 |
| jonjon09 | freakabcd can you not export folders? | 06:02 |
| Fryguy-- | feross: there's really no reason to run 64-bit in linux unless you have a specific need for it (super high memory, native longlongs, etc) | 06:02 |
| freakabcd | the_blur, ah an installed system. thats a good start. | 06:02 |
| Evanlec | Fryguy--, thats less than correct because flash works completely fine now | 06:02 |
| jonjon09 | freakabcd nevermind | 06:02 |
| S^n1x | does any one here knows what's the purpose of the ~/.local directory ?? why it will mass up ur system if the permission is set to something else ???? | 06:02 |
| tony_ | MasterShrek: Should I just reinstall? | 06:02 |
| the_blur | not if it doesn't work or save settings ... | 06:02 |
| Fryguy-- | Evanlec: there is no version of flash for 64-bit linux, you have to grab a 32-bit version and use that | 06:02 |
| the_blur | video and wireless are both b0rked | 06:02 |
| seth | hello, i need some help with amarok music player | 06:02 |
| paulistall | is anyone having problems with the text size in firefox | 06:02 |
| fabio | i want to reverse settings to original settings of ubuntu | 06:03 |
| freakabcd | jonjon09, sure you can. but you can only export folders by selecting(rt-click) them from the left side tree, and NOT from the right side file display | 06:03 |
| the_blur | I cvan fix them, but when I reboot they're back to where they were when I started | 06:03 |
| ChrisC36 | I've installed Ubuntu, created the partitions, selected the root, etc.. and at the end it restarted, but upon restart all I get is a blank screen with the cursor in top left, and no activity | 06:03 |
| Evanlec | Fryguy--, yes but u dont have to use a 32-bit browser, and the install is completely automated and painless | 06:03 |
| paulistall | i know i can adjust it from the preferences | 06:03 |
| Madpilot | the_blur, in a terminal, run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" - go thru it step by step. Should un-warp your video issues | 06:03 |
| paulistall | but doesn't that defeat the purpose of css | 06:03 |
| the_blur | I'll try that right now. | 06:03 |
| fabio | i want to reverse settings to original settings of ubuntu | 06:03 |
| fabio | i want to reverse settings to original settings of ubuntu | 06:03 |
| freakabcd | fabio, reinstall | 06:03 |
| fabio | help plz | 06:03 |
| freakabcd | bah | 06:03 |
| Madpilot | fabio, delete all your dotfiles | 06:03 |
| freakabcd | heh | 06:03 |
| Madpilot | fabio, and do not repeat so much. thanks. | 06:03 |
| Fryguy-- | paulistall: experiment with the dpi of your display | 06:04 |
| the_blur | fabio, reinstall | 06:04 |
| fabio | is not user setting | 06:04 |
| fabio | the ubuntu settings | 06:04 |
| freakabcd | fabio, what do you mean by reverse settings to original? | 06:04 |
| freakabcd | fabio, then un-edit all your changes to system-files, etc. | 06:04 |

| paulistall | Fryguy: how do i do that | 06:04 |
| kc | ok i have another question i realize that the two machines on virtual box are independent of each other but should i load xp in fat or ntfs sense it is an ubuntu box??? | 06:04 |

| CpuWhiz | where is the virtual terminal font setting | 06:05 |
| fabio | i want to reverse for the same of cd instalation | 06:05 |
| freakabcd | if you want the exact pristine ubuntu install *and* you do not know what has happened since then, you definitely need a reinstall | 06:05 |
| smmagic | kc: Doesn't matter | 06:05 |
| dstadulis | What advantage would there be to updating to 7.10 in the update manager opposed to installing from a 7.10 dvd or vice verca | 06:05 |
| MasterShrek | tony_, you didnt follow the directions correctly for blacklisting ndiswrapper | 06:05 |
| Fryguy-- | kc: might as well use ntfs since it's basically better in every way | 06:05 |
| Bruno | fabio, reinstall | 06:05 |

| fabio | how to do the command | 06:05 |
| MasterShrek | tony_, although you may not have to really blacklist it, if u set it to be loaded during boot, is it listed in /etc/modules ? | 06:05 |
| Madpilot | dstadulis, if you've already got the DVD, updating from that should be faster | 06:06 |
| smmagic | dstadulis: You don't need to burn a cd :p | 06:06 |
| feross | cafuego: so no go for Java.. hmm that sounds like a show stopper right there. | 06:06 |
| riotkittie | i wish i could get an internet connection in virtualbox | 06:06 |
| kc | ntfs 10gig quick format shouldnt take to long | 06:06 |

| [[Charlie]] | riotkittie, It worked for me without any setup | 06:06 |
| paulistall | actually i hadn't that helps | 06:06 |
| freakabcd | err.. dstadulis | 06:06 |
| smmagic | I think VMware workstation is alot better | 06:06 |
| KoKoJoe | Hi, is anyone available that can help me move my current linux installation to a fresh partition? | 06:06 |

| fabio | i cant see my minimized windows | 06:08 |

| fabio | flannel | 06:09 |
| fabio | in the panel i can see minimized windows | 06:09 |
| freakabcd | DShepherd, i immediately corrected it to refer to dstadulis | 06:09 |

| Madpilot | threeseas, if you're mounting a HDD partition while in the liveCD, you shouldn't need root to read/copy stuff from it... | 06:28 |
| gary_inNYC | OrbSpider666, copy the command, in a terminal sudo and paste it as is | 06:28 |

| Flannel | OrbSpider666: Don't do that at all. Thats a really dumb way of doing it | 06:30 |
| OrbSpider666 | yes I am gary_inNYC | 06:30 |
| gary_inNYC | OrbSpider666, from taht website copy the command under "Then, add the GPG key", paste it in a terminal | 06:31 |
| benny_ | wow.. chatzilla.. much better than xchat. | 06:31 |
| JamesG | Anyone experienced using IPMI with Ubuntu? I'm having trouble with SOL.. I get garbage out from the console.. even with very conservative settings (9600 baud) | 06:31 |
| iGeek | do i need to have xserver-xgl installed in order to use compiz? | 06:31 |
| Flannel | OrbSpider666: the sources.list.d thing is annoying. But, the gpg thing should work. | 06:31 |
| iGeek | (on gutsy gibon) | 06:31 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | iGeek: yes | 06:31 |
| gary_inNYC | copy the whole thing and paste it as is OrbSpider666 | 06:31 |
| iGeek | mmm... I can't make the desktop effects work on my computer | 06:31 |
| achandra | benny_: ill have to give chatzilla a try..what do you like about it?? | 06:31 |
| z1pp1ty | what's the url of the ubuntu repo search? | 06:31 |
| achandra | iGeek: I did...yes | 06:32 |
| Flannel | z1pp1ty: packages.ubuntu.com | 06:32 |
| Madpilot | rabsteen, please don't PM w/o asking. Check the Ubuntu doc wiki (help.ubuntu.com/community/) for info on installing beta versions of FF | 06:32 |
| OrbSpider666 | ok thanks but what about the: wget -q http ://fr.packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update | 06:32 |
| achandra | IGeek: otherwise i could not get it to start | 06:32 |

| benny_ | achandra: I couldn't get ride of the stupid *join* and *exit* statements in xchat, but chatzilla has them off by default. seems prettier too :) | 06:32 |

| achandra | benny_: nice ill have to try it. | 06:32 |
| gary_inNYC | OrbSpider666 you all set bro? | 06:32 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, no | 06:32 |
| Jordan_U | :) | 06:33 |
| OrbSpider666 | bro? | 06:33 |
| ezzieyguywu1 | this is probably an old issue, but in feisty when i FN+F4 on my thinkpad it makes as if it will go to suspend to ram but then cycles off, blank screen, immedietley cycles on and gives me the login prompt. how can i fix this? uswsusp works btw | 06:33 |
| joanki | Jordan_U, i had to reinstall i had a system crash | 06:33 |
| benny_ | achandra: Seems to automatically highlite personal responces to me also.. sweet! | 06:33 |
| joanki | Jordan_U, could you tell me the things i need to install again? | 06:33 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, You were having problems hibernating? | 06:33 |
| joanki | yes | 06:33 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, uswsusp | 06:33 |
| achandra | benny_: btw..in compiz, i can get the window to rotate left and right...do you need to install something to get it to "cube" and move up and down for all 6 windows to work?? | 06:33 |
| joanki | usususp | 06:33 |
| gary_inNYC | oops, sometimes don't realize i talk like that | 06:33 |
| riotkittie | argh. why wont it give me a nice 192 address. D: | 06:33 |
| joanki | uswsusp got it | 06:33 |
| OrbSpider666 | lol non problems | 06:33 |
| Fryguy-- | achandra: AFAIK there is no way to get workspaces on the top and bottom of the cube | 06:33 |
| achandra | i see | 06:34 |
| benny_ | achandra: yeah.. hold on. | 06:34 |
| Fryguy-- | achandra: if you think about how a cube is assembled, it wouldn't make much sense | 06:34 |
| Jordan_U | achandra, It wouldn't physically work on a non square monitor | 06:34 |
| OrbSpider666 | soso what about the "about the: wget -q http ://fr.packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update"? Sgouldn't Ihave problems with that installed only in english? | 06:34 |
| achandra | well yes an no.. if you can rotate to each side..doesnt that comprise of a window...hence a "face" | 06:35 |
| achandra | ?? | 06:35 |
| benny_ | achandra: Advanced Desktop Settings.. (CompizCOnfig Settings Manager).. you need it.. | 06:35 |
| joanki | Jordan_U, what do i need to do next, it's installed | 06:35 |
| joanki | i STILL got that error messsage | 06:35 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, Test it with "sudo s2disk" | 06:35 |
| benny_ | achandra: get it frist, through it, you can configure teh "cube" | 06:35 |
| gary_inNYC | anyway, not sure about the french one, i personally only use the key provided from that link | 06:35 |
| joanki | Jordan_U, do i type it exadtly like that? | 06:35 |
| achandra | right..i got that part..but since a cube has six faces...well....i think im overthinking it. okay..ill look at the settings. | 06:35 |
| achandra | damn mathematics teacher...lol | 06:35 |
| Fryguy-- | achandra: yes, and then the top and bottom of the cube will be different dimensions from your actual workspace | 06:36 |
| OrbSpider666 | ok then why doesn't it work, the libnk I gave u? | 06:36 |
| OrbSpider666 | out of date you think? | 06:36 |
| joanki | Jordan_U, because "sudo s2disk" did not work, could not stat the resume device file it says. Reason: no such file or directory | 06:36 |
| achandra | I see...yep...makes sense | 06:36 |
| achandra | a geometry lesson...at that.. | 06:36 |
| benny_ | achandra: haha.. sorry, I didn't read that you simply had a problem with too many workspaces.. I don't know.. I only use 4. | 06:36 |
| achandra | got it | 06:36 |
| Byt|A64 | can anyone tell me why a mounted hard drive is being mirrored as the trash? | 06:36 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, I don't know then :( | 06:36 |
| Fryguy-- | achandra: and furthermore, even if you HAD a square desktop, which workspaces would go on the top and bottom of the cube? | 06:36 |
| joanki | ok thx | 06:36 |
| Byt|A64 | and possibly how to fix it since it is doubling the space taken on the drive? | 06:36 |
| nakanaka | the cube is really a rectangular prism | 06:37 |
| achandra | oh....i dunno..it was more of geometrical exercise than anything.. lol | 06:37 |
| gary_inNYC | OrbSpider666: perhaps, i heard in some cases you had to replace feisty references with gutsy, can't say for sure | 06:37 |
| benny_ | just to make sure i'm not crazy.. desklets (adesklet, gdesklets) don't work with compiz right? I had to get screenlets (not in synaptic). | 06:37 |
| OrbSpider666 | hummm :s | 06:37 |
| OrbSpider666 | Oki then now another problem I have for | 06:37 |
| RAdams | How do I downgrade my wine to 0.9.45? | 06:37 |
| OrbSpider666 | well, since a I have my computer :) | 06:37 |
| achandra | who knows what they will come up with next.. a pyramid.. or better yet a circle....lol..okay enough with the silliness | 06:37 |
| OrbSpider666 | The image on my screen is always too... everything is written too small... | 06:38 |
| B_166-ER-X | Shit.. : I DONT WANT Totem on my system, but if i remove it, it removes Ubuntu-Desktop, and then i have no Sound at all. ideas ? | 06:38 |
| tritium | B_166-ER-X: language! | 06:38 |
| OrbSpider666 | and nobody could help me out with that, I have tried many things | 06:38 |
| === bugz__ is now known as _bugz_ | ||
| Fryguy-- | B_166-ER-X: why do you have totem so much that you must have it uninstalled? why not just leave it installed and choose not to use it? | 06:38 |
| tritium | B_166-ER-X: removal of ubuntu-desktop does not remove any other packages or sound. It's just a meta-package. | 06:38 |
| Sgt | OrbSpider666: try setting a lower resolution | 06:38 |
| jdong | nakanaka: lol... I never expected anyone to make that distinction :) | 06:38 |
| B_166-ER-X | Fryguy-- cause i dont Need it, use it, and it just bugs me. | 06:39 |
| Kalidarn | does ubuntu offer livecds anymore? | 06:39 |
| Fryguy-- | Kalidarn: sure they do | 06:39 |
| Kalidarn | mm wasn't able to find it on my ftp ;) | 06:39 |
| threeseas | well it seems the write to disk of cd/dvd creator hangs on the live cd | 06:39 |
| achandra | and by meta-package...what does that mean?? Im finally interested in the organizational structure of the package management system on ubuntu.. so how does this work. | 06:39 |
| Fryguy-- | Kalidarn: the default ubuntu disc is a live cd, just as it also has been | 06:39 |
| benny_ | so no one else like playing with desklets? Yes, I know they're pointless.. but fun to play with. | 06:39 |
| Sweet-P | I'm going to try to setup my old machine as a firewall/gateway for my network. I've read the tutorial on howtoforge (http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu6.06_firewall_gateway) but I don't need a lot of that stuff, is there a more to the point howto? | 06:39 |
| achandra | what is the interrelationship?? | 06:39 |
| Kalidarn | ah k | 06:39 |
| Byt|A64 | how do I fix the issue of a mounted hard drive being mirrored to the trash: applet causing the space taken up to be doubled? If I delete from one it deletes from the other | 06:39 |
| B_166-ER-X | tritium , well, its either that, or Evolution. because as soon a i remove these 3 packages, I lose all Sound, and must reinstall them and purge/resintall ALSA | 06:39 |
| RAdams | Kalidarn: https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ | 06:39 |
| mactimes | Hello | 06:39 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: not always, but in recent releases, yes | 06:39 |
| Kalidarn | i remember ages ago they had two different types of media | 06:39 |
| threeseas | well of course it does... can't get there from here | 06:39 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: every release in the past 2+ years, right? | 06:40 |
| OrbSpider666 | Any idea then? | 06:40 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: yes, but not back to the first release | 06:40 |
| mactimes | Could someone tell me how to create new themes for Ubuntu? Are there tools or tutorials for this? | 06:40 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: right, excuse me for not being pedantic enough | 06:40 |

| Fryguy-- | ubuntu: so install windows, then install ubuntu. ubuntu will automatically handle all of the details necessary to allow you to dualboot | 06:46 |
| Zippy2 | ubuntu: backup first | 06:46 |
| ubuntu | i installed windows already | 06:46 |
| nakanaka | RAdams: you can try installing the feisty deb manually or if that doesn't work due to depencies you can compile whichever version you like by hand | 06:46 |

| joanki | Jordan_U, but i do have a feelnig the problem is related possibly to my nvidia | 06:47 |
| kapputu | nautilus doesn't support searching network shares? | 06:47 |
| ubuntu | ok i'll try then come back | 06:47 |
| Fryguy-- | kapputu: sure it does | 06:47 |
| ezzieyguywuf | does anyone know how to fix suspend in feisty with gnome-power-manager? | 06:47 |
| joanki | Jordan_U, maybe | 06:47 |
| mistone | ubuntu: its still a good idea to back your stuff up :P | 06:48 |
| A[D]minS | Zippy2: gdm running but i don't think there is error... actually i set it autologin but working anyway | 06:48 |
| ezzieyguywuf | it seems to me that whats its doing is going through all the steps of suspending but immedietley waking back up | 06:48 |
| mistone | that has nothing to do with linux, its just what you should on computers :P | 06:48 |
| RAdams | nakanaka: what's the easiest way to get feisty's deb? | 06:48 |
| mactimes | Could someone, please tell me if there are tools to create GTK 2.0 theme packages like the ones we can install from System->Preferences->Themes? | 06:48 |
| Zippy2 | A[D]minS: /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 06:48 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, Do you have the nvidia drivers currently enabled? | 06:48 |
| achandra | pillowpants: does typing dmesg give any output when plugging/unpluging the device? | 06:48 |
| Fryguy-- | ezzieyguywuf: as far as I know it's an outstanding issue, I haven't been tracking the issue much at all though. I know myself along with a few other people with somewhat varying hardware setups have been having issues with it, so I can only imagine it's a problem with ubuntu's power management configuration, see if there is an open bugtracker issue, and if not create your own | 06:48 |
| Juno | zippy2: i ran your command and it said: GDM is broken or not fully installed | 06:48 |
| nakanaka | RAdams: http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=1501 seems to have it... don't forget to remove the wine you've got now first | 06:48 |
| riotkittie | omg. :cue head explosion: | 06:48 |
| OrbSpider666 | I have all the characters on my screen and everything which is too little, I modified my screen size with the screen, but everything is too smal and when i change the screen configuration with xrandr, it alkways come back the enxt time I open my computer with this shitty configuration :s | 06:48 |
| Zippy2 | Juno: apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade | 06:48 |
| Zippy2 | or apt-get -f install | 06:49 |
| Jordan_U | joanki, Proprietary drivers do tend to be the main thing that causes problems with suspend | 06:49 |
| Zippy2 | make sure you have free space | 06:49 |
| Fryguy-- | OrbSpider666: what resolution does it run it by default, and what screen are you using? | 06:49 |
| threeseas | I have a bunch of dead windows for write to disk.....whats teh command for getting rid of them? reboot? | 06:49 |
| Juno | zippy2: everything is upgraded all ready. nothing to install | 06:49 |
| Fryguy-- | threeseas: ?? | 06:49 |
| kapputu | Fryguy, doesn't seem so | 06:49 |
| joanki | Jordan_U, hope it cocntinues working and thanks btw | 06:49 |
| ezzieyguywuf | frygy: do you know how i can make uswsusp the default for fn+f4? | 06:49 |
| A[D]minS | Zippy2: no errors | 06:50 |
| Fryguy-- | kapputu: considering I've done it, I'm going to have to go with my previous statement | 06:50 |
| DopplerDeffect | Are there known issues with fglrx and the 9700 pro all-in-wonder? | 06:50 |
| kapputu | even Windows shares? | 06:50 |
| Zippy2 | Juno: try removing and readding it | 06:50 |
| Byt|A64 | can anyone tell me why a secondary hard drive is showing up as my trash when it's mounted ? | 06:50 |
| Fryguy-- | ezzieyguywuf: no idea | 06:50 |
| Fryguy-- | kapputu: yes even windows shares | 06:50 |
| RAdams | nakanaka: that worked. thanks! | 06:50 |
| threeseas | cd/dvd creator failed and left a write to disk windows open for each time I tried it | 06:50 |
| Juno | zippy2: gdm? gnome? xfce? | 06:50 |
| Zippy2 | gdm | 06:50 |
| Zippy2 | --purge if you dont need anything | 06:51 |
| ezzieyguywuf | does anyone know how to change the default actions for FN+F4? i'd like to force it to use uswsusp | 06:51 |
| Fryguy-- | threeseas: open up a terminal and manually kill the process | 06:51 |

| ubuntu | mistone> what if i did convert the partition into a linux ext3 when i run windows ????? | 06:51 |
| riotkittie | fail. | 06:51 |
| DopplerDeffect | Is there an ATi application for controling my graphics card? | 06:51 |
| Fryguy-- | ubuntu: ? | 06:51 |
| mistone | ubuntu: what? | 06:51 |
| Fryguy-- | english helps.. | 06:51 |
| RabidWeezle | Fryguy--, first off, keep the language family safe, second off, don't spam non help related stuff here | 06:51 |
| Jordan_U | DopplerDeffect, Yes, catalyst controller | 06:52 |
| Fryguy-- | RabidWeezle: uh, what? | 06:52 |
| kapputu | I'm trying to change the location for the search, I don't get an option to choose network locations | 06:52 |
| mso | woops, xchat isn't like mirc | 06:52 |
| RabidWeezle | goto #ubuntu-offtopic for non ubuntu stuff | 06:52 |
| mso | amsg does all networks | 06:52 |
| mso | =( | 06:52 |
| Fryguy-- | RabidWeezle: what are you talking about? | 06:52 |
| threeseas | the cd/dvd creator has been exited and the windows are still there | 06:52 |
| Jordan_U | DopplerDeffect, You can also use System -> Administration -> Screens and Graphics | 06:52 |
| mso | Fryguy--: he ment me | 06:52 |
| RabidWeezle | my bad | 06:52 |
| Fryguy-- | i'm hoping he meant you | 06:52 |
| RabidWeezle | I meant him yes | 06:52 |
| Juno | zippy2: sypnaptic shows gdm as not installed | 06:52 |
| ubuntu | after installing windows i use a program named partition magic to convert the partition into a linux ext3 to install ubuntu on it | 06:52 |
| RabidWeezle | my fault | 06:52 |
| Juno | should I just apt-get gdm then? | 06:52 |
| Fryguy-- | i'm just sitting here volunteering some free time helping people out, and instead I get scolded | 06:52 |
| Fryguy-- | awesome | 06:52 |
| RabidWeezle | lol | 06:52 |
| DopplerDeffect | Jordan_U, screens and Graphics gives me crazy screen if I go over 800x600, is catalyst installed with the fglrx driver? | 06:52 |
| Zippy2 | Juno: did you change any gdm configs? | 06:52 |
| RabidWeezle | sorry man | 06:52 |
| Zippy2 | if not, apt-get remove --purge gdm && apt-get install gdm | 06:52 |
| RabidWeezle | my dearest apologies | 06:53 |
| RabidWeezle | :) | 06:53 |
| Zippy2 | you might want to record what its deleting | 06:53 |
| Jordan_U | threeseas, You can kill it with 'xkill', run xkill and click the window of the application that you want killed | 06:53 |
| Fryguy-- | ubuntu: the ubuntu install will handle all of that for you | 06:53 |
| Juno | zippy2: nto that I'm aware of. all I did was follow the directions on the ALSA wiki on how to install the latest drivers | 06:53 |
| Zippy2 | so you can make sure everything is coming back | 06:53 |
| OrbSpider666 | Fryguy--: The screen I can't say the technical details, it's a COMPAQ P910 and the resolution is 1600x1200 | 06:53 |
| graelb | Does anyone know why i wouldn't be able to access my TTY's? | 06:53 |
| ubuntu | fryguy> how ?? | 06:53 |
| Zippy2 | actually, backup your configs | 06:53 |
| Zippy2 | the ones you changed, just in case | 06:53 |
| Fryguy-- | ubuntu: it has partitioning tools, it autodetects what it needs to do | 06:53 |
| Zippy2 | but dont overwrite unless you need to (old with new) | 06:53 |
| Zippy2 | if you need to, overwrite one step at a time to trace error | 06:53 |
| schnootop | is /dev/sda usually for sata drives ? | 06:54 |
| Juno | zippy2: i'm not sure how to do that. I really dont know if I've even changed any configs | 06:54 |
| Fryguy-- | OrbSpider666: have you tried experimenting with the DPI and default fontsizes and such? in system/preferences/font? I have to make quite a few changes there for my 2560x1600 screen | 06:54 |
| DopplerDeffect | How can I tell is fglrx is enabled? | 06:54 |
| Zippy2 | Juno: is there anything important on this install? | 06:54 |
| freaker | morning, why have gnome-terminal stopped working under Compiz? Gedit's Session-saver plugin stopped working at all ? and Rhythmbox can't save unchecked plugings ? | 06:54 |
| Madpilot | DopplerDeffect, system->admin->restricted driver manager | 06:54 |
| Juno | zippy2: no. I FINALLY got my sound working.. which is kind of important | 06:54 |
| Jordan_U | DopplerDeffect, glxinf | 06:54 |
| Byt|A64 | ugh | 06:54 |
| Byt|A64 | no answer yet. | 06:54 |
| Juno | took forever to do that | 06:54 |
| OrbSpider666 | No I didn't Fryguy-- where does I go to do that, and can you help me out with that tool? I don't wanna make mistakes :-p | 06:54 |
| Zippy2 | ok well alsa isnt related to gnome/gdm | 06:55 |
| Jordan_U | DopplerDeffect, * glxinfo | 06:55 |
| Zippy2 | apt-get remove --purge gdm | 06:55 |
| DopplerDeffect | thanks | 06:55 |
| Juno | k | 06:55 |
| Zippy2 | then i think apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 06:55 |
| Byt|A64 | mounted drive has turned itself into trash, WTF? | 06:55 |
| Zippy2 | is that the package name? i dont run ubuntu | 06:55 |
| Fryguy-- | freaker: one at a time helps. to address the first thing you asked. I'm using gnome-terminal and compiz fusion right now. do you have a specific problem? | 06:55 |
| tronyx | does anyone know how to get programs to run as root if you are hand editing the menu.xml file for openbox? | 06:55 |
| ubuntu | fryguy> after the language selection option the preparing disk option appear | 06:55 |
| Fryguy-- | tronyx: sudo | 06:55 |
| Zippy2 | apt-cache search ubuntu-desktop to make sure | 06:55 |
| Zippy2 | it's not critical or anything, your computer wont die | 06:55 |
| threeseas | xkill worked but only after numerious attempts on each of teh six dead windows | 06:55 |
| riotkittie | freaker: gnome-terminal works fine for me [for the most part] | 06:55 |
| tronyx | frygy, it's not working | 06:55 |
| freaker | do yo want the error from xterm when i try to run it ? | 06:55 |
| nakanaka | yeah, ubuntu-desktop is right | 06:56 |
| DopplerDeffect | glxinfo returns [Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0:.] several timese | 06:56 |
| ubuntu | fryguy> with 3 options 1- giuded resize 2- giuded use entire disk 3- manual | 06:56 |
| Fryguy-- | freaker: yes, I can't even begin to help you until you explain to me what is wrong | 06:56 |
| tronyx | <action name="Execute"><execute>sudo gedit /etc/X11/openbox/menu.xml</execute></action> doesn't open anything at all Fryguy | 06:56 |
| OrbSpider666 | so Fryguy-- I don't find the system/... | 06:56 |
| freaker | one moment let me just start Compiz | 06:56 |
| Fryguy-- | ubuntu: right.. choose the one that is apppropriate for you (probably resize | 06:56 |
| Fryguy-- | OrbSpider666: the sytsem menu on the top of the screen. | 06:56 |
| ChrisC36 | Andre_Gondim are you here? | 06:57 |
| freaker | The program 'gnome-terminal' received an X Window System error. | 06:57 |
| freaker | This probably reflects a bug in the program. | 06:57 |
| freaker | The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'. | 06:57 |
| freaker | (Details: serial 1513 error_code 8 request_code 72 minor_code 0) | 06:57 |
| freaker | (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; | 06:57 |
| freaker | that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. | 06:57 |
| DopplerDeffect | the graphics card tab in "Screens and Graphics" says i'm using the vesa driver and keeps setting itself back to vesa after I try fgrlx and pressing test | 06:57 |
| freaker | To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line | 06:57 |
| Fryguy-- | system | preferences | appereance | font | 06:57 |
| B_166-ER-X | i have serious SOUND issues, and webpages cant seem to help, if anyones knows something about ... PLEASE :) : FATAL: Module snd_via8237 not found. | 06:57 |
| freaker | option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful | 06:57 |
| freaker | backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) | 06:57 |
| schnootop | when creating a partition to install ubuntu on, do i want to make it primary or logical partition | 06:57 |
| freaker | i tried doing that with --sync, it does the same... | 06:57 |
| OrbSpider666 | Fryguy--: i'M IN my Konqueror with bin/ boot/ etc. | 06:57 |
| Zippy2 | schlort: doesnt matter, primary is preferred | 06:57 |
| Fryguy-- | freaker: rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal and try again | 06:57 |
| Andre_Gondim | ChrisC36, wow, now yes | 06:57 |
| Juno | fast-user-switch-applet... I think I might have accidentally uninstalled that? maybe thats what was causing the problem | 06:58 |
| riotkittie | Zippy2: why is primary preferred? | 06:58 |
| Fryguy-- | OrbSpider666: so then it's probably on the bottom of the screen, I don't use KDE so I don't know | 06:58 |
| OrbSpider666 | on Top of the Screen? I use Kubuntu :p | 06:58 |
| Fryguy-- | it's the system menu under apperance | 06:58 |
| Zippy2 | something with simplicity | 06:58 |
| schnootop | Zippy2 im guessing do Begginging and ext3 ? | 06:58 |
| RabidWeezle | how do you download a list of new mirrors for apt and pick which ones to use? | 06:58 |
| B_166-ER-X | !serioussoundissues | 06:58 |
| Fryguy-- | OrbSpider666: a little common sense helps | 06:58 |
| OrbSpider666 | ok :) let me see | 06:58 |
| Zippy2 | schlort: what was the question? | 06:58 |
| Zippy2 | schnootop | 06:58 |
| glenn | how do i find what drive to put into /boot/grub/menu.lst for my windows partition? | 06:58 |
| Jmax | hi, i recently suffered a hard drive failure and had to xfs_repair; subsequently, a number of files were delinked. what should I do to restore full functionality of my ubuntu desktop? | 06:58 |
| ChrisC36 | Andre_Gondim I installed with the video safe, and it now works. Does this mean I have to now do something to get the video driver for ati working? | 06:58 |
| freaker | the same exapt that line : (Details: serial 1292 error_code 8 request_code 72 minor_code 0) | 06:58 |
| OrbSpider666 | Yes I see it Fryguy--but there is in that menu "Home Folder", Storage media, Remote Places, user Folders | 06:59 |
| Andre_Gondim | ChrisC36, well I am waiting for the bug resolution | 06:59 |
| DopplerDeffect | When I try to boot up in anything other than 800x600, the screen is entirely unreadable | 06:59 |
| OrbSpider666 | so no preferences or so | 06:59 |
| Jordan_U | In trying to dist-upgrade to Gutsy ( because update-manager "can't calculate the upgrade" there are many packages that "will be held back", can anyone help me figure out why they are going to be held back? Here is the output from apt-get, I have not performed the upgrade http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41624/ | 06:59 |
| Andre_Gondim | ChrisC36, cause I wanna a free driver | 06:59 |
| schnootop | Zippy2 i am in the create partition menu and just wondering what options i should use. so far its Primary/locate partition at Beggining, and giving it EXT3 | 06:59 |
| schnootop | does that sound righT ? | 06:59 |
| Fryguy-- | OrbSpider666: you'll have to look around the menus a bit then, there should be menus for setting preference and doing administrative tasks | 06:59 |
| freaker | any alternative ideas ? | 07:00 |
| ChrisC36 | Andre_Gondim so can I still set the desktop resolution to higher, etc? | 07:00 |
| ubuntu | fryguy--> thanks alot and u too mistone> | 07:00 |
| nexano | danny3793: still here? | 07:00 |
| OrbSpider666 | wow, I'll try but I think I won't find it | 07:00 |
| Zippy2 | schlort: yeah. if you have more than 2 partitions before you install linux and are installing more than 2 partitions (linux and linux swap), you want to make it extended/logical | 07:00 |
| Andre_Gondim | ChrisC36, I think so | 07:00 |
| Zippy2 | schnootop | 07:00 |
| kapputu | regardless of the directory I'm in, Nautilus seems to always search the home folder | 07:00 |
| freaker | btw, i'm using Guesty 7.10 final release... | 07:00 |
| Zippy2 | locate at beginning is good. ext3 is good for linux, swap is for swap | 07:00 |
| ChrisC36 | Andre_Gondim but its not using the radeon driver I suppose? | 07:00 |
| Andre_Gondim | ChrisC36, no way, it's a generic driver | 07:01 |
| Fryguy-- | kapputu: what happens when you click on the item labeled "network" under the places menu | 07:01 |
| schnootop | i have a 300gb sata, i left 30gb for linux which i want to install it on. what would i chose for that | 07:01 |
| Zippy2 | schnootop: you need a swap partition. usually double your physical memory | 07:01 |
| schnootop | do i need to create a SWAP or does it do it by default, and if not how do i do that | 07:01 |
| Fryguy-- | schnootop: wow, left a ton of space for linux | 07:01 |
| ChrisC36 | Andre_Gondim so I should not install the ATI driver until when? and how do I find out? | 07:01 |
| CHMEarl | On first boot of new 7.10 server, should my username already be in sudoers? | 07:01 |
| Zippy2 | i dont know what does by default. i always do everything manually | 07:01 |
| schnootop | so you think 15gb swap 15gb linux ? | 07:02 |
| Zippy2 | schoonop: how much ram do you have | 07:02 |
| Fryguy-- | lol 15gb swap is WAAAAAAAY too much | 07:02 |
| slvmchn | i am having a resolution issue on a laptop with the intel 965g/xm3100 chipset... in the menu i can only select common resolutions like 640x480, 800x600, and 1024x768, although this laptop goes up to 1280x800 | 07:02 |
| riotkittie | 15GB swap?!? :o | 07:02 |
| schnootop | 2gb ram | 07:02 |
| OrbSpider666 | Thanks Fryguy-- but apart from the meny I told you with bin/, etc. I don't find anything else that could help, and that menu is not explicit about where to go to change that | 07:02 |
| Zippy2 | 4gig swap, 26gig ext3 | 07:02 |
| RabidWeezle | no one knows how to update the mirrors for apt? | 07:02 |
| Zippy2 | i would make the ext3 first, but it doesnt matter | 07:02 |
| slvmchn | the problem is that it recognizes the rest of the monitor and i can use it, but my panels snap to what it thinks it is, the smaller resolution | 07:02 |
| slvmchn | and the login screen is offset | 07:02 |
| schnootop | ok ill set that up, it wont effect my other partitions will it ? and can i easily access it ? | 07:02 |
| Fryguy-- | OrbSpider666: click the big K on the bottom of the screen.. | 07:02 |
| Fryguy-- | it should be plainly obvious... | 07:02 |
| Zippy2 | schnootop: not if you modify the other partitions | 07:02 |
| Andre_Gondim | ChrisC36, if you want you could, but you will install a proprietary driver, the Canonical works in a free driver, i just waiting f | 07:02 |
| CoasterMaster | schnootop, 15 G is kind of big for a swap partition | 07:03 |
| Zippy2 | not unless | 07:03 |
| OrbSpider666 | yes I tried by that way too:) | 07:03 |
| OrbSpider666 | Fryguy--: | 07:03 |
| riotkittie | slvmchn: wait. are you using 7.10? with compiz-fusion? | 07:03 |
| slvmchn | how do i set 915resolution to run BEFORE xorg? | 07:03 |
| freaker | Fryguy--: any ideas ? | 07:03 |
| Fryguy-- | freaker: nope | 07:03 |
| ChrisC36 | Andre_Gondim what do you mean by Canonical? | 07:03 |
| riotkittie | nm | 07:03 |
| schnootop | so swap should be logical? should it be at beginning or end ? | 07:03 |
| Andre_Gondim | ChrisC36, they do the Ubuntu | 07:04 |
| Zippy2 | dont make at the end. it complicates things | 07:04 |
| Fryguy-- | schnootop: swap is usually logical | 07:04 |
| freaker | i even tried reinstalling all...no effect at all.. | 07:04 |
| ChrisC36 | Andre_Gondim ok so its ok to install the ati proprietary driver? | 07:04 |
| Zippy2 | why is swap usually logical? | 07:04 |
| ChrisC36 | i would just like something better then 'generic' :) | 07:04 |
| riotkittie | because wasting a primary partition on swap is silly. | 07:04 |
| nakanaka | Jmax: i think this may do it: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-base ubuntu-desktop | 07:04 |
| Fryguy-- | because it's a secondary partition | 07:04 |
| ezzieyguywuf | anyone know how to make uswsusp the default FN+F4 event? | 07:04 |
| flatline-kun | Does anyone know if I can share login usernames/passwords across two Ubuntu systems? | 07:04 |
| m1ke | Anyone here use a solid state hard drive? | 07:04 |
| Jmax | hm ok | 07:04 |
| Fryguy-- | it doesn't really matter | 07:04 |
| schnootop | god bless 7.10 ubuntu 7.4 wouldnt pick up my sata :) | 07:05 |
| ezzieyguywuf | *or rather, s2ram? | 07:05 |
| Fryguy-- | since any computer made in the last like 10 years can boot from anywhere on the harddrive without arbitrary limitations | 07:05 |
| RabidWeezle | Fryguy--, know how to update apt's mirror list? | 07:05 |
| Fryguy-- | RabidWeezle: no idea, why would you ask me | 07:05 |
| OrbSpider666 | Fryguy--: I've done a hardware test, I could send the bugreport here if u want | 07:05 |
| RabidWeezle | cause I respect you | 07:05 |
| Zippy2 | RabidWeezle: edit /etc/apt/sources.list and run apt-get update | 07:05 |
| RabidWeezle | ;) | 07:05 |
| Fryguy-- | RabidWeezle: lol i've been using ubuntu for like 1 day... | 07:05 |
| RabidWeezle | oh | 07:05 |
| Andre_Gondim | ChrisC36, there is no problem :) | 07:05 |
| RabidWeezle | lol | 07:05 |
| rubah03 | cW `Q` | 07:05 |
| joanki | how do i change my default settings so that i do not need to have my ubuntu cd rom? | 07:06 |
| joanki | gksu something | 07:06 |
| RabidWeezle | Zippy2, sources.list cool, but is there a place I can get all the mirrors? | 07:06 |
| joanki | gksu getedit something | 07:06 |
| Jmax | nakanaka: no, that didn't work; ubuntu-base doesn't exist (7.10) and xubuntu-desktop claims it's already installed, no visible way to force it | 07:06 |
| schnootop | is it a good idea to migrate documents and settings (sorry just cautious because i cant lose anything on the other partitions) | 07:06 |
| shnastybiznastic | alright, I just learned and implemented/beat into submission xrandr. Now I want to get DRI and compositing operational. Normally this wouldn't be a big deal, but I don't want to break my xrandr setup, and the previous day has shown me exactly how much of a screwup lack of knowledge can cause. How can I get compositing effects and DRI and the like set up in xorg.conf without breaking a dual monitor setup with xrandr? | 07:06 |
| Zippy2 | joanki: comment out the cdrom line in /etc/apt/sources.list and run apt-get update | 07:06 |
| Zippy2 | RabidWeezle: ubuntu.com | 07:06 |
| Fryguy-- | joanki: open up synaptic and modify the repositories that you are using, one of the options is to uncheck using the cd media | 07:06 |

| Fryguy-- | schnootop: such as what? | 07:07 |
| freaker | k, nm for now. How do i enable Gedit's Save-Session plugin ? | 07:07 |
| nakanaka | Jmax: if you have synaptic it has a 'Fix broken packages' in the edit menu, that may do it | 07:07 |
| Zippy2 | schnootop: i dont do that. i wouldnt know. i think it does it automatically, doesnt it? | 07:07 |
| ramah | I just recently upgraded to a p945 chipset core 2 duo and can no longer load any of my ubuntu cds when I try to boot it keeps giving me emask timeout action frozen errors and it seems to be centered around ata1, anyone encountered this? | 07:07 |
| freaker | which somehow turned off alone among all plugins.. | 07:08 |
| Jban | Could someone work with me to get YouTube sound through my USB Headset? Skype / Pidgin / VLC / Sound Device selected properly all work, but the YouTube sound still comes through my stock laptop speakers. | 07:08 |

| shnastybiznastic | riotkittie, you should see all the different backups I have right now. the current backup is .almostperfect :P | 07:08 |
| Fryguy-- | Jban: using firefox? | 07:08 |
| joanki | Zippy2, how do i open that file? | 07:08 |
| schnootop | Fryguy--, it just asks me if i want to migrate my documents and settings, not even sure what kind of things will be migrated :\ | 07:08 |
| schnootop | i might not do it | 07:08 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: Correct sir | 07:08 |
| riotkittie | shnastybiznastic: hahahaha | 07:08 |
| Jmax | nakanaka: that checks deps, similiar to apt-get -f install | 07:08 |
| gharz | guys, i've manually configured my wireless network with a static ip add and wpa-psk enabled. why is it that i always have to execute ifup eth1 & ifdown eth1 to connect to the network. everytime i boot the essid value is off/any.... it doesn't connect automatically. any idea? | 07:08 |
| shnastybiznastic | riotkittie, so, step one: check | 07:08 |
| Zippy2 | joanki: if it's a text file, with a text editor | 07:08 |
| nakanaka | i see | 07:08 |
| joanki | ok | 07:08 |
| Zippy2 | gedit? kate? openoffice? | 07:09 |
| OrbSpider666 | something changed Fryguy-- I'll try to restart the Xserver and reconfigure it again :) | 07:09 |
| riotkittie | i must have had like 20 xorg.confs when i tried to get my second monitor going. i never succeeded. :| | 07:09 |

| OrbSpider666 | I might be not back :) | 07:09 |
| Zippy2 | vi? nano? emacs? | 07:09 |
| Fryguy-- | Jban: open up /etc/firefox/firefoxrc and change firefox_dsp to "aoss" and then apt-get install alsa-oss. start a youtube video, open up alsa mixer, and play with knobs until you get a satisfactory result | 07:09 |
| flatline-kun | Can you share a passwd and shadow file between 2 different computers? | 07:09 |
| the9a3eedi | Zippy2: MS Notepad :p | 07:09 |
| shnastybiznastic | riotkittie, yeah? were you using xrandr or what? /do you even want to mess with it? | 07:09 |
| Fryguy-- | flatline-kun: you can | 07:09 |
| Zippy2 | flatline-kun: ldap, nis, winbind... | 07:10 |
| Zippy2 | thea: only in i386 | 07:10 |
| joanki | Zippy2, says i don't have permissions to save gthe file | 07:10 |
| the9a3eedi | joanki: do it as root | 07:10 |
| Zippy2 | joanki: you need to do it as root | 07:10 |
| joanki | how do i do that sorry | 07:10 |
| ramah | I just recently upgraded to a p945 chipset core 2 duo and can no longer load any of my ubuntu cds when I try to boot it keeps giving me emask timeout action frozen errors i believe it is an error with my sata/ide bush, anyone encountered this problem? | 07:10 |
| Zippy2 | sudo programname in a terminal | 07:10 |
| Fryguy-- | !repeat | ramah | 07:10 |
| ubotu | ramah: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 07:10 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: Is that in terminal with a sudo infront? Sorry | 07:11 |

| riotkittie | shnastybiznastic: i've decided that for the sake of my sanity, the besth thing to do when complex xorg things are brought up... is to run. fast and far. :P way out of my league | 07:11 |
| joanki | the9a3eedi, do you know how i do it in root? | 07:11 |
| shnastybiznastic | riotkittie, the reason I ask is that I just finished fighting with mine to get it set up, and I was eventually successful | 07:11 |
| Fryguy-- | m1ke: why not just ask the question you really wan tto ask | 07:11 |
| joanki | the9a3eedi, how do i get to root? | 07:11 |
| shnastybiznastic | riotkittie, gotcha | 07:11 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: It says command not found | 07:11 |

| kapputu | I'm not able to get searching working in Ubuntu | 07:12 |
| Zippy2 | gharz: hotplug or auto line in interfaces? | 07:12 |
| joanki | Zippy2, how do i get to root pls | 07:12 |
| kapputu | i.e. in Nautilus | 07:12 |
| Zippy2 | joanki: sudo programname in terminal | 07:12 |
| Fryguy-- | you edit a file /etc/firefox/firefoxrc using whatever text editor you want. then you install the alsa-oss package. what command isn't found | 07:12 |
| gharz | Zippy2: auto eth1 is there. | 07:12 |
| m1ke | Fryguy--, I want to hear chat about actually boot up performance, and having a mixture of standard HDD with SDD | 07:12 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: ( sudo /etc/firefox/firefoxrc ) in terminal said command not found | 07:12 |
| joanki | do i type sudo getedit ???? | 07:12 |
| Zippy2 | gharz: /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant and /usr/share/doc/ifupdown | 07:12 |
| Fryguy-- | m1ke: this is the wrong channel to be discussing hardware performance | 07:12 |
| Zippy2 | thats where i looked when i had that problem | 07:12 |
| shnastybiznastic | riotkittie, if you do decide to give it another shot, I'll help. after dealing with all the mess on my own system the least I can do is help others avoid it. | 07:13 |
| PokoTa1 | I'm trying to install network manager through add/remove. It says that it cannot be installed on my computer type (1386). In fact, many programs in add/remove cannot be installed because of this error, enough that I think it is a bug. Does anyone know the problem/solution? | 07:13 |
| Fryguy-- | Jban: it's a text file, you need to edit it, use whatever text editor you want... | 07:13 |
| Fryguy-- | Jban: i said edit the file, not to run it | 07:13 |
| joanki | i thought it was gksu gedit | 07:13 |
| joanki | argh forget it | 07:13 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: How do I get to it to edit? | 07:13 |
| Fryguy-- | Jban: use a text editor? I use vim but you'll probably get confused trying to use that. uh, gedit might work well for you | 07:14 |
| Zippy2 | vimtutor | 07:14 |
| gharz | Zippy2: those are directories... | 07:14 |
| koshari | jban, if you want editor as sudo type "gksudo gedit" from terminal | 07:14 |
| steven_Office | that or nano | 07:14 |
| Zippy2 | gharz: i know, with files | 07:14 |
| prak | would xchat be the most popular irc client in ubuntu? | 07:14 |
| monkey__ | it appears that ubuntu 7.10 is slower with java applets. comparing to 7.04. or it can be that i was using java 5.0 on feisty. currently i have java 6.0 installed | 07:14 |
| Fryguy-- | prak: probably not, most people I know use irssi | 07:14 |
| kapputu | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3596518 - looks like others are facing the same issue | 07:14 |
| gharz | where should i add the auto eth1 line? | 07:14 |
| Ademan | so... the network manager applet seems to be totally oblivious to eth0 (my wired connection) even though ifconfig lists it... | 07:15 |
| Zippy2 | gharz: you said you already have that line...? | 07:15 |
| Jban | koshari: Thanks, I just figured that out now... I just needed some pushing in that direction. I am slwly learning commands. | 07:15 |
| CHMEarl | nm 7.10 server starts OK and I have sudo (2nd install was charm) | 07:15 |
| Zippy2 | <gharz> Zippy2: auto eth1 is there. | 07:15 |
| Fryguy-- | holy crap! somebody doing a search on the internet before coming in here whining about their problems!? A MIRACLE | 07:15 |
| freaker | How do i enable Gedit's Save-Session plugin which somehow turned off and is visually unchackable ? | 07:15 |
| gharz | Zippy2: auto eth1 is in /etc/network/interfaces | 07:15 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: Working on what you told me to do now, 1 min. | 07:15 |
| steven_Office | LOL | 07:15 |
| koshari | prak pidgin would prolly be the most popular becuase its installed by defaulty | 07:15 |
| Zippy2 | gharz: im assuming eth1 is your wireless interface's name and that you dont have logical interfaces for each network name | 07:15 |
| Fryguy-- | koshari: most people don't know pidgin even does irc, so I'd question that. | 07:16 |
| gharz | ok. | 07:16 |
| prak | koshari: i thought pidgin is only a instant messenger | 07:16 |
| gharz | Zippy2: any idea what to do? | 07:16 |
| Zippy2 | gharz: i reference wpa_supplicant.conf | 07:16 |
| Fryguy-- | koshari: see :) | 07:16 |
| gharz | ok | 07:16 |
| kapputu | Fryguy--: I'm just alerting you to the fact that the problem exists. | 07:16 |
| Zippy2 | it's fully documented in /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/README.modes.gz (I think that is the filename) | 07:16 |
| Zippy2 | zless it | 07:16 |
| Bonster | any1 no how to auto mount? | 07:16 |
| koshari | prak iam using gaim/pidgin here now | 07:16 |
| monkey__ | what is fluxbuntu? can i apt-get that when it's released? | 07:16 |
| prak | koshari: i'll try with pidgin now | 07:17 |

| Fryguy-- | monkey__: sounds like it's another variation on ubuntu that uses a different windowmanager by default. you can install fluxbox now if you'd like, it' sin the repositories | 07:17 |

| kokojoe | Can someone help me edit my /etc/fstab i'm a bit confused | 07:18 |
| Fryguy-- | monkey__: fluxbox is most certainly in ubuntu's repos | 07:19 |
| Fryguy-- | and has been for years | 07:19 |
| Zippy2 | debian/ubuntu made it extremely easy with interfaces integration | 07:19 |
| shnastybiznastic | kokojoe, sure, talk to me | 07:19 |
| Bonster | sudo gedit /etc/fstab | 07:19 |
| Bonster | =) | 07:19 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: Does typing ( apt-get install alsa-oss ) make it do it silently? | 07:19 |
| monkey__ | Fryguy--: just wonder if it's a totally separate distro. unlike, kbuntu, ubuntu, xbuntu, they are released with just apt-get install. | 07:19 |
| ChrisC36 | Andre_Gondim how would I install the ATI driver? | 07:19 |

| ZaphodBeeblebrox | Hi guys. To be able to use VMWare on Gutsy, should I install the xserver-xorg-video-vmware package? | 07:19 |
| Fryguy-- | monkey__: I doubt it | 07:19 |
| Zippy2 | ZaphodBeeblebrox: apt-get install vmware-package and read /usr/share/doc/vmware-package | 07:19 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: It allowed me to do the Save on the file, so I went to terminal to ( apt-get install alsa-oss ) as you said, and it just spaces down. | 07:19 |
| monkey__ | Fryguy--: well, i'll wait two more days to see if, it will pop up in the repo. | 07:20 |
| Zippy2 | it's a directory. read what's in the directory (cant believe i have to point this out) | 07:20 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: Oh wait, here it goes | 07:20 |
| Fryguy-- | monkey__: why not just apt-get install fluxbox now | 07:20 |
| ZaphodBeeblebrox | Zippy2: How come I don't see that package on sudo apt-cache search vmware? | 07:20 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: Installing packages now. | 07:20 |
| Zippy2 | ZaphodBeeblebrox: try adding non-free to your repo? | 07:20 |

| prak | what are your thoughts of pidgin as an irc client? | 07:20 |
| Fryguy-- | prak: I think it's awful and borderling unusuable | 07:21 |
| koshari | prak it works fine so cant complain | 07:21 |
| Zippy2 | im using bitchx | 07:21 |
| Zippy2 | and naim for aim | 07:21 |
| Bonster | if it works | 07:21 |
| Fryguy-- | i use irssi and pidgin | 07:21 |
| prak | i think i should switch back to xchat | 07:21 |
| Zippy2 | i used to use bsflite, before that i used tac.tcl | 07:21 |
| ZaphodBeeblebrox | Ok, thanks Zippy2 and ChrisC36 | 07:21 |
| prak | don't like it one single bit | 07:21 |
| Zippy2 | np | 07:21 |
| PokoTa1 | prak: you can type in it. What else do you need? | 07:21 |
| Bonster | hey any 1 fix the auto-mounting problem yet? | 07:21 |
| PokoTa1 | (I think its good enough) | 07:21 |
| Zippy2 | aim clients suck in linux. why do they have to act like irc clients? | 07:21 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: Ok, so I did all of that and now could you explain the last part? Go to alsa mixer? | 07:21 |
| freaker | the testing release of 7.10 was more stable than the final release... :( | 07:22 |
| monkey__ | Fryguy--: neah... fluxbuntu has config files in there. will be more nice to get it later. | 07:22 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: In youtube? | 07:22 |
| Fryguy-- | PokoTa1: ability to organize channels, better support for multiple server connections, logging support, color support, etc etc | 07:22 |
| monkey__ | Fryguy--: has more art work, splash screen etc... | 07:22 |
| Fryguy-- | Jban: now open up firefox again and see if it works, and if it doesn't run alsamixer while a video is playing and twiddle the knobs a bit | 07:22 |
| Fryguy-- | monkey__: I guess.. | 07:22 |
| PokoTa1 | okay :D I guess I should have said "What else do I need?" and thats basically nothing | 07:22 |
| Fryguy-- | monkey__: I tend to use my machines to get work done as opposed to pretty screens, so I use what works | 07:23 |
| ZaphodBeeblebrox | Ahn, sorry for my ignorance, guys, but I just have to run a virtual OS on my desktop (single machine), I don't need the VMWare server right? I just need the client... Correct? | 07:23 |
| Zippy2 | ZaphodBeeblebrox: im using virtualbox | 07:23 |
| Jban | Fryguy--: It still does the sound via laptop speakers. What do you mean by knobs? | 07:23 |
| Fryguy-- | Jban: ... what do you want it to do? | 07:23 |

| DARKGuy | hey, in compiz (gutsy) how do I change (or remove) the setting that makes my windows glue to the screen edges or other windows's edges? | 07:30 |
| |thunder | hi all, how difficult is it to downgrade firefox to an older version in gutsy ? | 07:31 |
| ChrisC36 | Zippy2 its software raid i'm after | 07:31 |
| rzimek78 | <Zippy2>But I need to start Kopete on the remote machine, not on mine. | 07:31 |
| Zippy2 | rzimek78: i know, exactly what i said | 07:31 |
| Zippy2 | ChrisC36: i know | 07:31 |
| Bonster | sys>perf>advance | 07:31 |
| Bonster | for compiz | 07:31 |
| ChrisC36 | well what was i supposed to do then? | 07:31 |
| Zippy2 | chryss_: i think it would be under volume manager, but im not sure | 07:31 |
| Zippy2 | chrisc36 | 07:31 |
| Zippy2 | lvm? | 07:32 |
| Zippy2 | logical volume manager | 07:32 |
| ChrisC36 | can i not set it up now? | 07:32 |
| Zippy2 | i dont know how | 07:32 |
| rzimek78 | <Zippy2>ssh -XC makes Kopete visible on my computer - I want to start Kopete on th remote machine and logout. | 07:32 |
| xTheGoat121x | ....so what would cause the inability to log off/ switch users? | 07:32 |

| Bonster | which 1 u trying to turn off? | 07:33 |
| ChrisC36 | logical volume manager - is that in the menus somewhere? | 07:33 |
| Zippy2 | rzimek78: -X and x11 forwarding, C is compression. you need to man ssh and find the option for background and then you type kopete after the user@host and it will ask for password, run and background | 07:33 |
| Zippy2 | -X is, that is | 07:33 |
| Slart_ | threethirty: smbclient -M ... check the man page for other parameters | 07:34 |
| DARKGuy | Bonster: the one that makes my windows glue to the screen or windows's edges | 07:34 |
| threethirty | Slart_: ty | 07:34 |

| ChrisC36 | oh you mean , i'm supposed to set stuff up before i dbl click on that install icon | 07:35 |
| Zippy2 | no, after | 07:35 |
| Zippy2 | it's a part of the install process. inside the partitioning | 07:35 |
| Zippy2 | afaik | 07:36 |
| ChrisC36 | well i click on the install icon on the desktop, it asks me a few simple questions, then takes me to the partitioning, i went to manual and setup partitions.. dont remember seeing any other menus there | 07:36 |
| Zippy2 | ive never done it | 07:36 |
| Zippy2 | maybe you need advanced? | 07:36 |
| Bonster | is probally wobble windows | 07:36 |

| fabio | in cedega | 07:37 |
| fredl | but there's no binary in the package anymore after the upgrade | 07:37 |
| Col^ | ChrisC36, you can set up logical volumes with the alternate disc | 07:37 |
| DARKGuy | Bonster: oh, ok, I'll try with it :D thanks | 07:37 |
| Zippy2 | ChrisC36: google raid 1 ubuntu | 07:37 |

| Jban | Is there anyway to change what flash program plays the YouTube videos? Maybe that's how I can get USB audio to work with them? (Note: everything else works through my Logitech USB Headset / and it is slected in the sound options). | 07:37 |
| Bonster | u installed drivers yet? | 07:38 |
| Col^ | ChrisC36, i would think so, but i'm not sure | 07:38 |
| jmdc | fabio: does 3d acceleration work anywhere? | 07:38 |
| DARKGuy | Bonster: LOL I put the tension in the lowest one and the windows look like they're underwater XD sloooooooooow | 07:38 |
| DARKGuy | Bonster: guess it's not there o,o | 07:38 |
| fabio | jmdc i think not | 07:38 |
| TECH_1 | jban: try Gnash?..maybe. | 07:38 |
| Zippy2 | ChrisC36: it's at least easier to do it during install. it's definitely possible after (as long as the raid1 isnt / or /usr or something) | 07:38 |
| Jban | TECH_1: Could you explain in more detail? | 07:38 |
| Bonster | turn it all off then turn it on 1 by 1 =) | 07:38 |
| fabio | i have envy | 07:38 |
| TECH_1 | It is in apt-get | 07:39 |
| fabio | i have envy and i installed the nvidia drive | 07:39 |

| Jban | TECH_1: Will it mess anything up? | 07:39 |

| Zippy2 | ChrisC36: i think it can, but im not sure | 07:39 |

| Zippy2 | it depends on the ubuntu installer | 07:39 |

| _Mawze | any idea what's wrong ? | 07:40 |

| PokoTa1 | alright, thanks | 07:41 |
| Col^ | _Mawze, though i'm not sure it'll solve your problem, but i can't seem to install from live-cd, so i always use alternate discs | 07:41 |
| Bonster | sudo nvidia-glx-config enable | 07:41 |
| jmdc | fabio: you can find out if 3d acceleration is working by doing glxgear -info | 07:42 |
| Bonster | this is the line | 07:42 |
| Zippy2 | PokoTa1: grep in /usr/bin for nm or network-manager | 07:42 |
| jmdc | fabio after a few seconds, frame rate information will print | 07:42 |

| zetheroo | DARKGuy: interesting... | 07:43 |
| Jban | TECH_1: Do I have to enable it in any way? | 07:43 |
| jmdc | fabio: but, you probably should just do glxinfo, now that I think of it | 07:44 |
| DARKGuy | zetheroo: it is - they changed to wlan0 now :) | 07:44 |
| Bonster | did it work | 07:44 |
| PokoTa1 | I'm on the move alot, and this is on a laptop, so I enjoy the quick interface for changing connections. | 07:44 |

| zetheroo | DARKGuy: I thought thats what Beta releases are for!/ | 07:47 |
| jmdc | schnootops: the installer normally installs GRUB for you. Did you stop it from doing so? | 07:47 |
| schnootops | Col^, i was readin the docs and i thought it did it by default if windows was already on a partition | 07:47 |
| fabio | BONSTER | 07:48 |
| fabio | dont work | 07:48 |
| Jban | TECH_1: Yeah... still doesnt play through the USB headset | 07:48 |
| schnootops | jmdc, im pretty sure i didnt | 07:48 |
| jmdc | schnootops: are you using more than 1 physical disk? | 07:48 |

| Bonster | ADD/remove | 07:49 |
| schnootops | any idea Col^ or jmdc, is there a way to boot back into live cd and see if it installed ? | 07:49 |
| DARKGuy | zetheroo: your friend could try if he can connect using the LiveCD - that's like a "fresh install" with no upgraded system whatsoever, a bare, pure Gutsy - if it doesn't work then it'll mean it doesn't in Gutsy I'm afraid, but I'm no wireless guru | 07:49 |
| Jban | TECH_1: What kind of settings? | 07:49 |
| zetheroo | DARKGuy: well I am hopeful that fixes will be out soon... | 07:49 |
| Bonster | search nvidia | 07:49 |
| Col^ | schnootops, try the alternate disc, i'm sure it will ask you for GRUB in that one | 07:49 |
| schnootops | could the multiple drives be conflictingwith it ? | 07:49 |
| DARKGuy | zetheroo: you and me too :( | 07:50 |
| fredl | hmm - I believe gksudo (which is the popup that asks you for your passwords) keeps your admin password in memory for a limited amount of time and it's quite safe. | 07:50 |
| fabio | but i need tu unistal envy? | 07:50 |
| scguy318 | zetheroo: the question? | 07:50 |
| zetheroo | DARKGuy: ok... I'll get him to try that... | 07:50 |
| DARKGuy | zetheroo: good luck =) | 07:50 |
| Zippy2 | atheros ftw | 07:50 |
| TECH_1 | jban..did you try right clicking on your volume button ans going to preferences ans re-allocate the button to headphones..or somthing. | 07:50 |
| scguy318 | fredl: sudo in general | 07:50 |
| scguy318 | zetheroo: your original question? | 07:50 |
| schnootops | i dont really want to download another one. First i downloaded 7.04 and it didnt work, and now 7.10 | 07:50 |
| Bonster | uninstall and install other 1s | 07:50 |
| fredl | yes sudo in general is quite safe. | 07:50 |
| zetheroo | scguy318: I will paste it for you... | 07:50 |
| shnastybiznastic | schnootops, you can boot from the cd and piviot-root to the supposedly installed hard dirve | 07:50 |
| schnootops | is there a way just to install grub from command line | 07:50 |
| scguy318 | fredl: well, yeah, was talking about the whole session caching thing :P | 07:50 |
| Jban | TECH_1: All the Sound Options are set up already. VLC movies / Skype/ they all use the headset fine. | 07:50 |
| Zippy2 | corporations use sudo | 07:50 |
| jmdc | schnootops: its possible that grub didn't get put in the right place because you have so many disks. Tell us more about the way your disks are partitioned. | 07:51 |
| TECH_1 | oh ok | 07:51 |
| zetheroo | scguy318: a friend of mine upgraded to Gusty from Feisty and now his wireless is completely unresponsive..... he can see all the available networks .... but beyond that nothing.... what do ya think? | 07:51 |
| fredl | hmm - if you want to know how sudo does this and how you can change it's behaviour, check the manual page for sudo | 07:51 |
| scguy318 | zetheroo: try using something like ndiswrapper? maybe the native thing is borked | 07:51 |
| TECH_1 | Id say its a matter of settings somwhere. | 07:51 |
| zetheroo | scguy318: thing is that I upgraded also and I have no probs with it.. | 07:51 |
| scguy318 | fredl: im aware | 07:51 |
| scguy318 | zetheroo: have you all peeked in syslog? | 07:51 |
| hmm | fredi: if i am in admin mode through gk-sudo wouldn't any program i run also have admin privileges? | 07:51 |
| schnootops | i have a 300gb sata as the main which is 30gb windows / 30 gb linux(just installed ubuntu) / the rest data | 07:51 |
| zetheroo | scguy318: only diff is that I have an Intel Wifi card and he has Atheros | 07:51 |
| Zippy2 | wireless in linux still sucks. its moving along, though (slowly) | 07:52 |
| schnootops | and the others are just data drives | 07:52 |
| fredl | hmm - no absolutely not. | 07:52 |
| LordDicranius | got a quick question regarding gnupg keys. before re-installing Feisty a few months back, I used a GUI app (can't remember which, I think it was seahorse) to export my public and private keys. I'm finally getting around to putting 'em back onto my machine after upgrading to gutsy, but I'm having problems importing 'em (using seahorse) | 07:52 |
| scguy318 | zetheroo: thats two different things | 07:52 |
| blippe | how do i check what causes tons of software interrupts? | 07:52 |
| zetheroo | scguy318: syslog? | 07:52 |
| scguy318 | hmm: no, only the app that you launched under sudo will have the root powers | 07:52 |
| scguy318 | zetheroo: System -> Administartion -> System Log | 07:52 |

| Zippy2 | Wamphyri: details | 07:52 |
| jmdc | Wamphyri: no need to ask to ask | 07:52 |
| scguy318 | zetheroo: maybe his Atheros is having issues with the native module, ndiswrapper is worth a shot | 07:52 |
| zetheroo | scguy318: and what would we be looking for in there? | 07:53 |
| kraut | moin | 07:53 |

| zetheroo | scguy318: so install the drivers manually? | 07:53 |

| ashfaq | scguy318: | 08:16 |
| morgan | i havent configured it again, im still in that 800 x 600 mode | 08:16 |
| Col^ | then it's probably not installed schnootops :) | 08:16 |
| prak | Bonster: i remember having problems installing the one in the repository | 08:16 |
| prak | that's why i went to the manual route | 08:16 |
| jmdc | blippe: do you have processes using a lot of cpu time? | 08:16 |
| Bonster | no | 08:16 |
| schnootops | Col^, ahh ok. How can i install it from LiveCD then seeing it didnt prompt me for it / | 08:16 |
| Bonster | in gutsy | 08:16 |
| RabidWeezle | here's a question since I have been offline for a while, has ati made a new driver for linux? | 08:16 |
| Bonster | it will auto pop up | 08:16 |
| Bonster | and just install | 08:16 |
| scguy318 | ashfaq: whats in the vmware folder? | 08:16 |
| blippe | jmdc: nope idle is at 75% | 08:16 |
| Col^ | schnootops, that i wouldn't know, since i always use alternate disc | 08:17 |
| scguy318 | RabidWeezle: they havent released a new one yet since...August? | 08:17 |
| mikl | Q: Why does ScrollLock and CapsLock blink when I try to boot the newlive CD? | 08:17 |
| schnootops | Col^, what is the difference between them ? | 08:17 |
| RabidWeezle | that's recent to me | 08:17 |
| RabidWeezle | lol | 08:17 |
| ashfaq | scguy318: their is one more folder, and the file is in that folder vmware-server-dist | 08:17 |
| jmdc | blippe: that is really bizarre. How long has your system been up? | 08:17 |
| prak | Bonster: do you know how to check the version of linux kernel that i have? | 08:17 |
| Col^ | the alternate disc is a text installer | 08:17 |
| prak | with gutsy? | 08:17 |
| RabidWeezle | I haven't been online all spring/summer | 08:17 |
| scguy318 | prak: uname -r | 08:17 |
| RabidWeezle | I like to unplug for social aspects | 08:17 |
| James12344 | Where can I get "chroot" ? | 08:17 |
| RabidWeezle | chroot... | 08:18 |
| scguy318 | !chroot | James12344 | 08:18 |
| ubotu | James12344: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box | 08:18 |
| RabidWeezle | it comes with linux | 08:18 |
| blippe | jmdc: it starts with si at 20% | 08:18 |
| Gropi | What is the process to get the importance raised on bug #145131? I think it could be even "critical". | 08:18 |
| James12344 | RabidWeezle: I don't seem to have it installed :/ | 08:18 |
| RabidWeezle | oh noes | 08:18 |
| prak | thanks scguy318 | 08:18 |
| scguy318 | ashfaq: type cd vmware-server-dist | 08:18 |
| RabidWeezle | :( | 08:18 |
| scguy318 | ashfaq: then sudo ./vmware-install.pl | 08:18 |
| selig5-away | /quit | 08:18 |
| blippe | James12344: sudo apt-get install chroot | 08:18 |
| bauer | how do i get the userlist in the right side visible in my irc browser ?-) | 08:18 |
| ashfaq | scguy318: one more folder in vmware, and in that the file .pl is their | 08:19 |

| MBDL | i was doing research that it is posible to get ubuntu running with ubunut in vga mode but how to i run the live cd in that mode | 08:19 |
| morgan | scguy, did you see the link I pasted in? | 08:19 |
| blippe | jmdc: let me check | 08:19 |
| scguy318 | morgan: yes im looking | 08:19 |
| morgan | sure, just double checking | 08:19 |
| MBDL | ? | 08:19 |
| blippe | jmdc: nope | 08:20 |
| c0Ld | hm | 08:20 |
| morgan | -.- | 08:20 |
| morgan | c0Ld | 08:20 |
| morgan | -.- | 08:20 |
| jmdc | blippe: are you running on fairly modern hardware? | 08:20 |
| schnootops | ok im playing with grub, i did root(hd2,2) and im confused, do i do setup(hd0) or setup(hd2) | 08:20 |
| scguy318 | morgan: how about your /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 08:20 |
| blippe | jmdc: no, about 4 years old | 08:21 |
| Lunz | how do i scan disk for error? | 08:21 |
| blippe | jmdc: maybe older | 08:21 |

| scguy318 | !fsck | Lunz | 08:22 |
| ubotu | Lunz: 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 | 08:22 |
| MBDL | how do i boot ubuntu in vga mode | 08:22 |
| jmdc | blippe: you're probably right though | 08:22 |
| blippe | jmdc: i can't check which program causes the si? | 08:23 |
| ashfaq | ashfaq@ZAHEDA:~/Desktop/vmware/vmware-server-distrib$ ./vmware-install.pl | 08:23 |
| ashfaq | Please re-run this program as the super user. | 08:23 |
| Lunz | scguy318,thanks | 08:23 |
| schnootops | ok thats annoying i got grub loading but it couldnt find the partitions lol | 08:23 |
| Bonster | type blkid | 08:23 |
| Bonster | should list all ur HDs | 08:24 |
| ashfaq | scguy318: Its asking to re-run the program as super user how | 08:24 |
| Nuked | hmm... I was looking into flac for encoding... if its lossless.. would I get the same quality with a song compressed to the max. as I would to one with minimal compression? | 08:24 |
| blippe | jmdc: cat /proc/interrupts show the hi's there gotta be a way for si's | 08:24 |
| thiefness | I need to reset my xorg.conf to the original settings, how do i do this? | 08:24 |
| blippe | Nuked: yes | 08:24 |
| Lunz | i have one hardisk and 2 partitions,first boot is gutsy but how do i set second boot to xp? | 08:24 |
| magnetron | Nuked: FLAC is lossless. it can shrink the size of song, but you cannot choose the level of compression. | 08:25 |
| scguy318 | ashfaq: sudo ./vmware-install.pl | 08:25 |
| Bonster | lossless u wont hear those mess up sounds if u put the volume way up high | 08:25 |
| riotkittie | yay | 08:25 |
| blippe | jmdc: i am gonna rip out a hdd which might be damaged... | 08:25 |
| Lunz | how do i edit the grub? | 08:25 |
| magnetron | Bonster: it will be en EXACT copy of the original, but smaller. | 08:26 |
| jmdc | blippe: okay. I'm trying to find a program that will notice where software interrupts are coming from. | 08:26 |
| blippe | Lunz: sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.list | 08:26 |
| vlt | Hello. Any idea how to solve the CUPS problem "Print file was not accepted (client-error-request-value-too-long)!" for print jobs larger than (seems to be) 32M? | 08:26 |
| Bonster | im just saying what he can expect | 08:26 |
| Nuked | magnetron: that scares the heck out of me | 08:26 |
| ashfaq | sudo ./vmware-install.pl Okay its asking which directory you want to install files? | 08:26 |
| jmdc | blippe: but I don't know if that actually exists. | 08:26 |
| riotkittie | Lunz: in a term: sudo cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.lst.old && gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 08:26 |
| Lunz | blippe,thanks | 08:26 |
| wAndyw | How can i automatically let iwconfig make a reconect to an AP, when the Signal was lost? | 08:26 |

| scguy318 | ashfaq: just enter and yes | 08:26 |
| scguy318 | ashfaq: all the way | 08:26 |

| Nuked | magnetron: I got it | 08:27 |
| josh_marshall | Kay guys -- a failed gutsy update broke the boot process on a Compaq F500. Anyone have a moment to help me troubleshoot, or have any experience with Gutsy on a similar laptop? Any help is very appreciated. | 08:27 |

| morgan | scguy - it looks like you are really swamped. I think I will just post on the forums | 08:27 |
| scguy318 | thiefness: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 08:27 |
| sub|way | jmdc: no, waited for the final release | 08:28 |

| Irreducibilis | 1243 people! :O | 08:28 |
| Nuked | thanks magnetron | 08:28 |
| Lunz | riotkittie,what is that command for? | 08:28 |
| p34ce | ive got ubuntu 5.1 | 08:28 |
| scguy318 | morgan: it might be beneficial to trash the modelines in xorg.conf, the EDID info seems to jive | 08:28 |
| jscinoz | Are non-core packages ever updated between releases? | 08:29 |
| scguy318 | morgan: some interesting stuff in Xorg.0.log but g/l | 08:29 |
| jmdc | Irreducibilis welcome to the post-install hell. | 08:29 |
| jscinoz | (e.g. azureus) | 08:29 |
| Irreducibilis | >_> | 08:29 |
| Irreducibilis | How lovely | 08:29 |
| egolost | when I enable openvpn in my ubuntu the network stops workning :/ | 08:29 |
| jmdc | jscinoz: yes. | 08:29 |
| riotkittie | Lunz: it copies your original menu.lst file so you have a backup if you need it, and then opens your current menu.lst in the graphical text editor | 08:29 |
| aftertaf | josh_marshall: whats the symptoms? | 08:29 |
| ashfaq | ) scguy318: dear give me some absolute path with your judgement | 08:29 |
| p34ce | should i just download a newer firefox or something? | 08:29 |
| scguy318 | ashfaq: what is it? | 08:29 |
| riotkittie | with admin priveledges, so you can edit it as needed | 08:29 |
| scguy318 | p34ce: 5.1? like Hoary? | 08:30 |
| jmdc | jscinoz: mostly you get security and bug fixes. You almost never see a package's major version change | 08:30 |
| p34ce | ive orded the new 7.1 lol | 08:30 |
| ashfaq | ) scguy318: Its asking for an absolute path, and enter makes no difference | 08:30 |
| jscinoz | jmdc, any idea when we'll have azureus 2.5.0.4 in the repos as opposed to 2.5.0.0, it fixes a number of major bugs (crash on existance of files in ~/.azureus/logs, crash on open torrent details, crash randomly) and has been out since may. | 08:30 |
| scguy318 | ashfaq: whats the question | 08:30 |
| ozzloy | anyone else having trouble with google? | 08:30 |
| Ivones_Co | asuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu | 08:30 |
| riotkittie | you can replace gksudo gedit with sudo <cli editor of your choice> or kdesu kate or xsu mousepad if you're using kde or xfce over gnome | 08:30 |
| Ivones_Co | celeng | 08:30 |
| scguy318 | !info azureus | 08:30 |
| ubotu | azureus: BitTorrent client. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.5.0.0repack1-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 6922 kB, installed size 7780 kB | 08:30 |
| Bonster | why use azrues at all? | 08:30 |
| scguy318 | yeah still 2.5.0.0 :( | 08:30 |
| riotkittie | ozzloy: i am. google never returns my calls. =( oh wait, you didnt mean like that, eh | 08:31 |
| jscinoz | jmdc, at the moment i've just resorted to droping the azureus 2.5.0.4 jar in /usr/share/java/whatever/ | 08:31 |
| ashfaq | What is the directory that contains the init directories (rc0.d/ to rc6.d/)? | 08:31 |
| riotkittie | ashfaq: /etc/ | 08:31 |
| ashfaq | Yeah it has moved ahead now | 08:31 |
| jmdc | jscinoz: I dont anything about that specific package. You could try looking it up in launchpad | 08:31 |
| jscinoz | we'll ill be damned, the isp at my other house blocked ssh | 08:31 |
| scguy318 | ashfaq: strange it didnt get that value automatically | 08:31 |
| p34ce | is opera anny good? should i install that? | 08:31 |
| jscinoz | spent hours trying to figure out why it didnt work, tried it at this house with different isp it works | 08:32 |
| jscinoz | f**king optus. | 08:32 |
| riotkittie | p34ce: depends on your own personal taste. why not try it and find out. | 08:32 |
| scguy318 | p34ce: if you're running Hoary, which I think you said you were, you might want to consider upgrade ;) | 08:32 |
| josh_marshall | aftertaf: Well, depends on the kernel flags I add. The Compaq F500 needed things like noacpi, irqpoll, and pnpbios=off to boot properly in Feisty... | 08:32 |
| riotkittie | Hoary?! egads. | 08:32 |
| p34ce | horay as in internet? u mean? | 08:32 |
| ashfaq | Before running VMware Server for the first time, you need to configure it by | 08:33 |
| ashfaq | invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl". Do you want this | 08:33 |
| ashfaq | program to invoke the command for you now? [yes] | 08:33 |
| jscinoz | Cant wait for Hardy tribe 0 or whatever :P cutting edge = awesome | 08:33 |
| scguy318 | p34ce: you said you were running Ubuntu 5.10? | 08:33 |
| p34ce | yea | 08:33 |
| aftertaf | josh_marshall: ok. sounds like my problem..... i had to blacklist some modules and remake initramfs | 08:33 |
| Flannel | p34ce: You've got 5.10, which is breezy (and is no longer supported). You ought to upgrade to at least 6.06 | 08:33 |
| josh_marshall | aftertaf: So when I add all of those, it will get all the way through the boot process, and then freeze on a black screen -- | 08:33 |
| jmdc | p34ce: You're using software that is 2 years old. You really want to upgrade. | 08:33 |
| riotkittie | tribe breakage | 08:33 |
| Bonster | loL | 08:33 |
| scguy318 | Flannel: thanks for correcting me | 08:33 |
| p34ce | i c | 08:33 |
| ashfaq | cguy318: just check my output i think I am at the climax | 08:33 |
| aftertaf | josh_marshall: and you cant switch with alt+F, etc? | 08:33 |
| scguy318 | ashfaq: pastebin it | 08:33 |
| jmdc | ashfaq: I have a dirty, dirty mind. | 08:34 |
| p34ce | ive only put it on cause i got a bad virus on windows so i screwed it | 08:34 |
| scguy318 | I wouldn't mind climaxing with Horny Hedgehog | 08:34 |

| josh_marshall | aftertaf: here's the thing, I can boot into the recovery mode fine... | 08:37 |

| jmdc | MekApelsin: that sucks. | 08:39 |
| jscinoz | scguy318, do you use tsocks? | 08:39 |
| josh_marshall | aftertaf: Just black. | 08:39 |
| MekApelsin | jmdc: btw hi :D | 08:39 |
| Jordan_U | riotkittie, Just because irssi > * doesn't make xchat crap :) | 08:39 |
| jmdc | MekApelsin: maybe you should try building a kernel first. | 08:39 |

| p34ce | is it self explanitory to install ubuntu 7.1 after download? | 08:39 |
| josh_marshall | aftertaf: Now, to add another level, I think that some of the packages broke when I was updating. | 08:39 |
| sub|way | Im gettin really weird now. the distribution-update want to install kde-tools which i discarted some days ago and i cant tell it not to install them.. :-/ | 08:39 |
| scguy318 | p34ce: after you get the ISO, you just burn it and boot to it | 08:39 |
| riotkittie | Jordan_U: i'm not saying that it's crap. i mean, it has its merits but.... it's just too... <gestures wildly> idunno | 08:39 |
| josh_marshall | aftertaf: So, things like ubuntu-minimal may be missing. | 08:40 |

| p34ce | u can burn on 5.1? | 08:41 |
| riotkittie | bauer: ugh. dontmakemereloadit. it was there before? this isnt a fresh install of xchat? you're sure it's not xchat-gnome? | 08:41 |
| t1n0m3n | schnootops: shoot | 08:41 |
| josh_marshall | aftertaf: Okay, it's booting into recovery, what do I need to edit? | 08:41 |
| josh_marshall | aftertaf: *what do I need to add? | 08:41 |
| Jordan_U | josh_marshall, You can chroot in, check to see if there are any dependency problems, resolve them if needed, all from a LiveCD | 08:41 |

| bauer | riotkittie, i think ill find another irc client :-) | 08:44 |
| Jordan_U | josh_marshall, You can use chroot to run commands from a different root partition, so you would be able to run apt-get ( the apt-get that is installed on your hard drive ) but be booted and connected to the internet from the liveCD | 08:44 |
| tracy_ | bauer, wow.. in that case, i have no clue. i've got xchat 2.8.4 .... maybe you should update :P do you have a Settings menu? Maybe it's in preferences? | 08:44 |

| scguy318 | ashfaq: 902 | 08:46 |
| Jordan_U | josh_marshall, Then just boot a liveCD, mount your installed partition to "/chroot" for example, then run "sudo mount -o bind /dev /chroot/dev && sudo mount /proc/chroot/proc" then "sudo chroot /chroot" and you will have a shell ( terminal ) running commands from your installed system | 08:47 |

| S^n1x | does any one here knows what's the purpose of the ~/.local directory ?? why it will mass up ur system if the permission is set to something else ???? | 08:48 |
| Madpilot | fredl, use the alternate CD, that's got slightly finer control over partiton use than the LIveCD installer | 08:48 |
| magnetron | fredl: you need to format everything except pure data partitions | 08:48 |

| magnetron | freaker: pastebin it | 08:50 |
| fredl | magnetron - yeah I know that part. The Debian installer is somewhat more flexible in initially making those volumes (at install time) but if I can keep 'em basically the way they are that'd be nice. | 08:50 |

| Madpilot | p34ce, do you have high-speed internet? | 08:59 |
| p34ce | ohhh i c wow ill just upgrade me way to 7.10 lol ty | 08:59 |
| riotkittie | t1n0m3n: actually, sleep is for people without children :< | 08:59 |
| p34ce | i got braod band aussie style not to good tho | 08:59 |
| Smegzor | Often after I install a program using Synaptic, it does not appear in the applications menu. Why doesn't the menu update and how do I make it update? | 08:59 |
| scguy318 | p34ce: you cant do it straight from 5.10 or w/e it was you said | 08:59 |
| scguy318 | p34ce: but you can always download the ISO and do a clean install | 08:59 |
| Madpilot | Smegzor, lots of stuff in synaptic doesn't have menu entries | 08:59 |
| scguy318 | p34ce: the torrents are hot! | 08:59 |
| t1n0m3n | riotkittie: Dang! I should be asleep then | 08:59 |
| riotkittie | p34ce: thats a lot of upgrading. :o hope your connection's nice. cause you have to go to 6.06 and 6.10 and 7.04 | 08:59 |
| Smegzor | Can I manually add a menu entry or is that not a trivial task? | 09:00 |
| scguy318 | Smegzor: GRUB? sure, edit /boot/menu.grublst | 09:00 |
| ashfaq | scguy318: nOW IT IS NOT ACCEPTING THE SERIAL NUMBER HOW TO GO ABOUT THAT! | 09:01 |
| scguy318 | */boot/grub/menu.lst | 09:01 |
| Madpilot | Smegzor, fairly easy. right-click on the menu, hit the New Item button. | 09:01 |
| riotkittie | Smegzor: you should be able to add one. uhm. Alacarte is the menu editor, isnt it? i have no idea what i'm talking about so i will just shut up now. | 09:01 |
| Smegzor | no not grub | 09:01 |
| p34ce | so i shud get 6.06? | 09:01 |

| joerack | Hello, is there a way to remove the front bar in Ubuntu linux ? | 09:33 |
| Jordan_U | jdd, No, use the automatic option | 09:33 |
| astro76 | jdd, actually I think if you delete your "f:" first you can use guided and install into free space option, IIRC | 09:33 |
| mne | hi guys. web-specific packages always install their own apache-config files in /etc/apache2/conf.d. I always deleted them, but after upgrading, they get linked to /etc/apache2/conf.d again. how do i avoid this behaviour ? it really sucks ... | 09:33 |
| Jordan_U | jdd, You can still choose to resize your windows partition with the automatic option | 09:33 |
| DUUUUUDE | if all scientist wouldn't share info bill would never archived the things of today :) simple | 09:33 |

Is there some thing else i have to do? If i restart the network service it uses the static ip i gave it but if i leave it for a while it gets assigned an IP via DHCP... Any ideas? | 09:42 |

| brad016 | Jordan_U, hey it even has "bot" in its name | 09:42 |
| sun_ | astro76, may you suggest that sound more Linux way? | 09:43 |
| webman | k31th: try "ps axwww|grep dhclient" and if it is there that is why | 09:43 |
| brad016 | Jordan_U, well, do you know how to aplly emerald themes in the emerald theme manager? | 09:43 |
| astro76 | sun_, not really, I don't like the thing myself anyway, most non-basic users use Synaptic package manager, and the add/remove is really designed to be helpful to ex-windows users, hence the name I imagine | 09:44 |
| compwiz18 | sun_, I think that Add/Remove Programs sounds fine -- it describes the function of the program perfectly | 09:44 |
| k31th | webman: looks like its running it | 09:44 |
| astro76 | gandalf, check preferences > keyboard shortcuts | 09:44 |
| k31th | i presume i need to dissable this? | 09:44 |
| k31th | How do i go about doing this. | 09:44 |
| chucky | anyone know how to change the resolution for ubuntu, I need to setup a custom resolution that is not in the list | 09:44 |
| Jordan_U | brad016, IIRC you just click them, are you sure that you are actually using emerald as a window decorator? | 09:44 |
| Korg | thanks for the help, bbl | 09:44 |
| compwiz18 | k31th, kill dhclient with sudo killall dhclient | 09:44 |
| sun_ | astro76, you are right | 09:44 |
| webman | k31th: should be a nice way, but you could kill it, or reboot | 09:44 |

| Jordan_U | maple, Can you link to an example PDF? | 09:50 |

| Bonster | yea | 09:50 |
| fabio | and is easy? | 09:50 |
| Bonster | i test XP on it | 09:50 |
| fabio | lol | 09:50 |
| Bonster | very smooth | 09:50 |
| Jordan_U | beernutz, Yes, it's a bug that has been in their drivers since they first "supported" compiz | 09:51 |
| Bonster | very easy | 09:51 |
| fabio | im searching | 09:51 |
| Jordan_U | beernutz, Their is a work around for it, but it makes things slower | 09:51 |
| RAdams | bonster: does miro work for you on Gutsy? | 09:51 |
| joerack | jordan_U: quite frankly I don't know which is worse, Ati or Nvidia | 09:51 |
| beernutz | could you point me towards that workaround? | 09:51 |
| Bonster | RAdams: yea | 09:51 |
| Jordan_U | joerack, Intel FTW :) | 09:51 |

| umop | Jordan_U, I have a onboard Nvidia card, and i have enabled the restrivcted driver for it | 09:55 |
| Jordan_U | mk_, That is a feature, it's so you know that it is not responding | 09:55 |
| Jordan_U | mk_, And IIRC there is a way to disable it | 09:56 |
| mk_ | yeah ok, but i have the problem that the fenster wont get the color back sometimes. | 09:56 |
| Bonster | mk_: if is stuck then kill it off | 09:56 |
| mk_ | no the app is responding / working again some time later, but the window is still grey | 09:56 |
| beernutz | Jordan_U, could you point me towards a better resource for this? google has a few hits, but maybe i am not using the right keywords (compiz nvidia white screen) | 09:56 |
| Jordan_U | beernutz, Try #compiz | 09:57 |
| Bonster | mk_: Alt+F2 , type in xkill, and point to that window | 09:57 |
| Jordan_U | beernutz, Wait, that's not the right channel :) | 09:57 |

| hirak99 | trogdor, i tried to do it with synaptic, but there i still only see the ubuntu cd and not the kubuntu cd | 10:13 |

| gvag | hello to everyone... I have a question regarding the network-manager in the Ubuntu 7.10. I need to configure a br0 and put the eth0 to promisc mode, but i need to do it with profiles... That means, when i choose profile OFFICE to have the br0 to get 10.5.2.10 and eth0 to be in promisc, and when i choose profile Home to have br0 192.168.1.112 and eth0 promisc... Any idea? | 10:17 |

| stefg | zetheroo, it's not about performance (it's basically the same distro) but about free software in an orthodox view. But to get e.g. 3D working on Ati/Nvidia you have no choice as to use proprietary drivers atm | 11:30 |

| Heman | Hey, the ubuntu upgrade has been running for about 2 hours now, Its still saying applying changes. This is a partial upgrade because I had to shut down my computer a few times while it was upgrading is that ok or is there a way to re-do the whole upgrade fully... without uninstalling ubuntu... Thank you for your help | 11:56 |
| shnastybiznastic | just perform those three commands after cd-ing to the directory with the source. | 11:56 |

| stefg | nikolam, the database used by locate | 11:56 |
| andreasfischer | MenZa: Yes | 11:57 |
| zetheroo | ibotu: ok do this "sudo pacman -S dbus hal" | 11:57 |
| shnastybiznastic | nikolam, it's the database the computer uses to find bits of itself when you ask | 11:57 |
| shooood | shnasty> what is gcc ??? | 11:57 |
| nikolam | andreasfischer: And why it is indexing, what is it indexing, who told it to index it? | 11:57 |

| sponix | in fact Seveas are you awake ? | 12:03 |
| Lenny1729 | Menza: okay, thanks | 12:03 |

| IndyGunFreak | Lenny1729: it will be updated in due time | 12:04 |

| void^ | pulz0r: fglrx is a pretty bad driver, among other things it doesn't support composite. you need xgl as a workaround to get compiz working on fglrx. there's a lot of guides about that out there. | 12:08 |

| stefg | uptownben_, there is a way of getting Ben Collins' git-tree. But you'll don't want that. getting the plain vanilla source and only applying /your/ wanted patches ususally results in a better working kernel | 12:09 |

| sponix | linux_user_73: what do you think of it so far ? | 12:09 |

| ubotu | uptownben_: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel. You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild. Also, see !stages | 12:09 |

| cyberridz | and compiz doesnt work | 12:11 |
| flick2 | yeah, it's a nice game | 12:11 |
| sponix | cyberridz: yeah, I'm on X1400 and mine is like that | 12:11 |
| lousygarua | hi just upgraded to gutsy - i have an intel on-board graphics card - how do i reconfigure it to have a wide-screen resolution? | 12:11 |
| ibotu | sponix: ATI works great for 7.10 | 12:11 |
| cyberridz | they say they are working on it and will give a fix in a few days | 12:11 |
| linux_user_73 | I have vesa installed instead of I810 | 12:11 |
| ibotu | sponix: i am on a ATI Radeon | 12:12 |
| shooood | shnasty/ i hope u didn't forget about me | 12:12 |
| Bonster | ATI on linux is lame | 12:12 |
| cyberridz | everything works ok on 7.10 on my ati except for compiz | 12:12 |
| orduek | yes | 12:12 |
| cyberridz | it keeps telling me compiz extenstion not found | 12:12 |
| shnastybiznastic | shooood, actually, I was clearing up a small issue my system had so I could better help you | 12:12 |
| linux_user_73 | how do I install OpenGL on Xubuntu 7.10 | 12:12 |
| skills | ATI on any platform is LAME | 12:12 |
| orduek | it looks like i can't get the right resolution | 12:12 |
| pulz0r | cyberridz: I had my ATI (x1950gt) card running with compiz, today I did a fresh install of 7.10, and it stoped working | 12:12 |
| linux_user_73 | not mesa | 12:12 |
| orduek | and the default is generic | 12:12 |
| ganeshhegde | will mobile phone connected through usb ll be recognised automatically?? | 12:12 |
| cyberridz | yeah same here pulzor | 12:13 |
| orduek | while they have other models of aoc | 12:13 |
| shooood | shnasty / ok tyt am waiting | 12:13 |
| pulz0r | :( | 12:13 |
| cyberridz | i think its a bug | 12:13 |
| zetheroo | ibotu: hey could me call hal a "module"? | 12:13 |
| pulz0r | man :\ | 12:13 |
| cyberridz | i am sure fixes will be issued soon on the updates | 12:13 |
| bach2008 | desde | 12:13 |
| Indiadev_Techie | <orduek> : change ur screen resolution to 1024*768 or higher.. | 12:13 |
| uptownben_ | stefg, you know what, maybe I should just go back to 7.04. Do you really think the "dynticks" thing would cause my wifi to start acting wierd? nothing else is weird, besides that the system is great. | 12:13 |
| pulz0r | well, it didnt work properly at all, so I'm not that pissed about it | 12:13 |
| shnastybiznastic | shooood, actually, I found a pretty good web page that will make it easier on both of us. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/general-linux-support/39850-how-install-limewire-ubuntu-debian.html | 12:13 |
| orduek | sponiks: any ideas? | 12:13 |
| pulz0r | but it does irritate me that it doesnt want to work AT ALL anymore | 12:13 |
| cyberridz | to be honest the compiz thing is just eye candy | 12:13 |
| Reng | anyone know how to install comiz-fusion 6? | 12:13 |
| ibotu | zetheroo: i'm not sure. i did a /etc/init.d/dbus restart, where in hal failed again to start | 12:13 |
| === kotuke_ is now known as kotuke | ||
| dmizer | zetheroo: hal is a hardware layer ... daemon, not a module. | 12:14 |
| cyberridz | as long as gnome works and is stable should be fine | 12:14 |
| ibotu | zetheroo: the problem is with hald, only | 12:14 |
| MuLLeR | hi ... what to do with phpapi package in gutsy, coz without it .. the php5-interbase can't be installed? | 12:14 |
| pulz0r | yes, it is eyecandy, but also one of the only reasons for me to use gnome | 12:14 |
| cyberridz | the most important is drivers for wireless etc | 12:14 |
| jscinoz | Argh falcon is horribly broken on gutsy. | 12:14 |
| shnastybiznastic | shooood, that has a link to a .deb package and explains about what repositories tou need enables | 12:14 |
| ibotu | anyone has any idea regarding hal here? | 12:14 |
| zetheroo | ibotu: gksudo gedit /etc/modules..... and then add hal into the list.... save and exit..... will this work? | 12:14 |
| Loveable | so wht about that | 12:14 |
| jscinoz | *pokes seveas to update it* | 12:14 |

| zetheroo | ibotu: oh?...... ok..maybe I am being more of a bother then a help | 12:15 |
| stefg | uptownben_, actually i think going back to 7.04 is the way to go. It's not only the DynTicks thing (although tha's part of the problem), but gutsy just isn't ready for primetime yet | 12:15 |
| flick2 | i find myself spending more time in ubuntu now... if only i could get a remote control for my symbian phone i could watch media there too! | 12:15 |
| ibotu | zetheroo: no, not at all. we are learning together, i guess :) | 12:15 |
| zetheroo | dmizer, ibotu: so does the daemon load upon startup? | 12:15 |
| dmizer | zetheroo: yes. | 12:15 |
| ibotu | dmizer: my hal daemon fails to start everytime | 12:16 |
| ganeshhegde | flick2:will mobile phone connected through usb be recognised automatically?? | 12:16 |
| uptownben_ | stefg, so why was it realeased?.. damn.. how can I undo my upgrade?..please tell me ubuntu thought of this... | 12:16 |
| zetheroo | dmizer: so whats the prob? | 12:16 |
| ibotu | dmizer: hal fails even on dbus restart | 12:16 |
| jscinoz | is it normal for firestarter to be getting dozens of blocked access attempts every minute | 12:16 |
| steviedee | Got Gutsy and having trouble connecting the wireless net, neone wana help? | 12:16 |
| dmizer | zetheroo: you may need to try some kernel boot options. maybe noapci or acpi=off | 12:16 |
| cico | (04:43:06 IST) cico: steviedee: don't ask whether you can ask. just ask the question. :-) | 12:16 |
| flick2 | ganeshhegde, not sure, long time since i did that last - i connect only the bluetooth to USB now (and Ubuntu detects it just fine) | 12:17 |
| steviedee | its impolite to just ask... | 12:17 |
| ibotu | dmizer: invoke-rc.d: initscript hal, action "start" failed. | 12:17 |

| cico | steviedee: this is a basic IRC etiquette. | 12:17 |
| stefg | uptownben_, no way of downgrading. save your stuff, reinstall. and, no, canonical didn't care if gutsy is ready for release: time based releases .... ready or not | 12:17 |

| zetheroo | dmizer: I don't have any issues with HAL.... I was just trying to help ibotu | 12:18 |
| cyberridz | if anyone knows hoe to get compiz to work on ati machines please give me a buzz i'd appreciate it thanks | 12:18 |

| Roo-kie | do I have to configure Grub? | 12:26 |

| Roo-kie | terrific | 12:26 |
| Roo-kie | thanks | 12:27 |
| kbrooks | Roo-kie, so that windows sees the hard drive as a primary one | 12:27 |
| stefg | kbrooks, there is a ranking system on LP for a reason. if something gets marked as critical, gets a milestone, but isn't fixed until release date there's no option but to delay until the issue is fixed. *Critical* Bugs need to be ironed out, not ranked down for any other reason than to make the release look alright | 12:27 |
| MenZa | Roo-kie: Insert it, press enter, works perfectly---let me find you a link | 12:27 |

| Col^ | kbrooks, ok, but can it be used on a router? | 12:35 |
| kbrooks | Col^, but its not perfect. traffic analysis is possible, so just be careful. | 12:35 |
| lexx | now update firefox 2.0.0.6 to 2.0.0.8 ....? | 12:36 |

| silici0 | i'm using Ubuntu 7.04 - the Feisty Fawn | 12:36 |
| Col^ | kbrooks, ok, i'll try fiddling a bit with it | 12:36 |
| Adriaan_ | Hello Ubuntu people. I am installing ubuntu, but the installer hangs after I select a keyboard layout. What should I do? | 12:36 |
| Pici | lexx: Are you asking a question? | 12:36 |
| kbrooks | Col^, it's better to ask if it can be used on any linux distribution. a router is a computer that routes network data to its destination. | 12:36 |
| MenZa | Adriaan_: How much RAM do you have? | 12:36 |
| silici0 | and it has a new version 7.10 | 12:36 |
| silici0 | is it safe to update ? | 12:37 |
| MenZa | silici0: Generally, yes. | 12:37 |
| rhalff | lol, synergy is cool :D | 12:37 |
| __Kamil__ | hi | 12:37 |
| MenZa | silici0: Unless you've used Automatix or similar tools. | 12:37 |
| steviedee | Using gutsy, internet wont connect | 12:37 |
| JebJoya | MenZa: I set up a thread here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=585950 last night, will pastebin my sudo fdisk -l to there in about 10-15 mins. | 12:37 |
| Adriaan_ | MenZa, plenty RAM, I'd think. It's not an old machine | 12:37 |
| __Kamil__ | My english is bad | 12:37 |
| kbrooks | Col^, the answer is yes | 12:37 |
| silici0 | MenZa: i don't know that tool | 12:37 |
| MenZa | silici0: Because in said case, I wouldn't do so. | 12:37 |
| __Kamil__ | but i have a problem | 12:37 |

| BernardB | !ubotu w32codecs | 12:37 |
| Col^ | kbrooks, i guess so, but i just thought it should be implemented in all programs on the machine | 12:37 |

| __Kamil__ | how can i only download ubuntu-desktop | 12:38 |

| silici0 | MenZa: yeah, how i see if i use it ? | 12:38 |
| kbrooks | Col^, that's certainly possible ... with some ceveats. | 12:38 |
| MenZa | silici0: Have you installed Automatix? | 12:38 |
| silici0 | MenZa: i don't think so | 12:38 |
| lexx | Pici, update firefox 2.0.0.6 to 2.0.0.8 now ? | 12:38 |
| MenZa | silici0: Then it /should/ be safe to update. | 12:38 |
| Col^ | ok kbrooks, thanks for the help | 12:38 |
| MenZa | silici0: Good luck updating :) | 12:38 |
| Adriaan_ | MenZa, It's plenty I'd say. | 12:39 |
| codecaine | is there a way to stream videos to a xbox 360 on linux? | 12:39 |
| Pici | lexx: wait for the pacakge to be updated, its only security fixes. | 12:39 |
| silici0 | MenZa: i worry about that because i'm using at work | 12:39 |
| MenZa | Adriaan_: Hmm, are you sure the disk isn't corrupt? What speed did you burn it at? | 12:39 |
| Bonster | any good channels on miro? | 12:39 |
| Adriaan_ | MenZa, I checked integrety before installing, and I also checked the md5sum of the file prior to burning. Both succeeded | 12:39 |
| kbrooks | Col^, with tor, you want dns to be resolved in a secure way so that people don't know you're browsing a particular site. | 12:39 |
| MenZa | silici0: Well, if any problems occur, come back in here. The update process has become much more smooth over the past few years. | 12:39 |
| silici0 | MenZa: i'll try | 12:40 |
| Adriaan_ | MenZa, also, I am running this xchat from the livecd. | 12:40 |
| MenZa | Adriaan_: Heh, nice to see someone cares for integrity :). In that case, I'd try the Alternate CD. | 12:40 |
| silici0 | if i don't come back, occur everything ok | 12:40 |
| Col^ | kbrooks, ok, i gotta get into this networking stuff more | 12:40 |
| MenZa | !alternate > Adriaan_ (See the message from ubotu) | 12:40 |
| Adriaan_ | MenZa, so thats without the visual installer? | 12:40 |
| silici0 | MenZa: thanks, man | 12:40 |
| silici0 | ;P | 12:40 |
| kbrooks | Col^, can i teach some ;-) | 12:40 |
| MenZa | Adriaan_: Yes, it's with a text-install, but it's very easy to use. I actually prefer it. | 12:40 |
| Col^ | kbrooks, sure you can, but i gotta get home from school first :) | 12:40 |
| kbrooks | Col^, lol me too | 12:40 |
| Adriaan_ | MenZa, ok I'll try | 12:40 |
| MenZa | Adriaan_: It constructs a simple 8bit interface, similar to, say, the first part of the Windows XP install. | 12:40 |
| Col^ | i'll find you | 12:41 |

| MenZa | Yes, Pici, I think so | 12:45 |
| === TheSaint is now known as xXTheSaintXx | ||

| Smegzor | Anyone know why the screensaver just gives me a black screen when I tell it to use the Pictures folder? (yes it has pictures) | 12:47 |

| gvsa123 | *d? | 12:53 |
| xXTheSaintXx | were can i download flash/ | 12:54 |
| chowmeined | garu: because its a constant battle against hardware vendors and OEMs who refuse to support their devices on linux | 12:54 |
| xXTheSaintXx | Like macromedia flash 8 | 12:54 |
| xXTheSaintXx | or something | 12:54 |
| chowmeined | xXTheSaintXx: in gutsy? go view a site with flash on it.. like youtube, it will autodownload | 12:54 |
| jamesfoster | garu, If you encounter bugs and want them to be fixed, you should lodge bug reports and follow up on them if you are asked to provide additional information. | 12:54 |
| frojnd | How can I rotate cube_ | 12:54 |

| Jeb | MenZa: it _does_ appear on fdisk | 12:55 |
| MenZa | Jeb: then create fstab entries and mount them :)= | 12:56 |
| garu | jamesfoster it still does, but...its crazy now...every now and then, loses wireless connectivity. If I restart like 3 times, it works.For some reason, it keeps asking about questions about the keyboard layout | 12:56 |
| QwertyM | chowmeined, ok, thanks | 12:56 |
| Jeb | MenZa: **whooosh** | 12:56 |
| MenZa | Jeb: Did you get any of that? | 12:56 |
| Jeb | MenZa: (by which i mean that went straight over my head) | 12:56 |
| MenZa | Thought so. | 12:56 |
| auowE | I installed Gutsy. When I trying to enable dma through hdparm, I am getting message - HDIO_SET_DMA failed. I thought it would be fixed with the release as it existed in beta. | 12:56 |

| auowE | How can I resolve this. the performance is really bad. | 12:56 |
| Jeb | MenZa: oi! | 12:56 |
| garu | but, anyway...I'v always loved ubuntu, but I have to confess that they should'v worked a bit more on this release! | 12:56 |
| MenZa | Right, open /etc/fstab in your favourite text editor, Jeb | 12:56 |

| mouka | I have a palm lifedrive, and everytime i try to sync it, it resets my device | 12:58 |
| auowE | I tried but there is no direct solution. saw in someforums saying to go for old ide drivers. | 12:58 |
| MenZa | Jeb: ok, /dev/hda1 is set to mount where? | 12:58 |
| mouka | any ideas why? | 12:58 |
| Jeb | well, i have this: UUID=10A001B3A001A078 /media/hdb1 ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_GB.UTF-8 0 1 | 12:58 |

| Jeb | Draggles was on here a min ago as well | 12:59 |
| chippy | lol | 12:59 |
| MenZa | Jeb: ergh, I hate UUIDs. | 12:59 |
| MenZa | anyway | 12:59 |
| MenZa | Jeb, substitute the UUIDs for the /dev/ drives | 12:59 |
| mouka | darn it | 12:59 |
| mouka | too many people asking too many different questions | 12:59 |
| Jeb | so literally replace UID=X with /dev/hda1 | 12:59 |

| chowmeined | mouka: have you checked out System -> Preferences -> Palm Devices? | 13:00 |

| mouka | yes, I did | 13:01 |
| mouka | but nothing has worked | 13:01 |
| Jeb | MenZa: 2 sec | 13:01 |
| mouka | I guess it's the LD that's very different from other palm devices | 13:01 |

| ubotu | Upayavira: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal | 13:11 |

| lgc__ | julz, ntfs-3g will allow you to write to Windows partitions, if that's what you like. Apart from that, Windows partitions are always mounted read-only in order to protect your filesystem. | 13:33 |

| pakali | how do i fix it? | 13:34 |
| Fracture | I was so happy when I installed gutsy and it detected and installed a working printer driver without me having to do a single thing ! | 13:35 |
| lgc__ | MenZa, and from what I read, it's bug-ridden by default...:(. | 13:35 |

| Pingviller | anyone know how to mount .mdf/.mds in ubuntu? I've been trying to find a solution for this for hours on google, but cdemu refuses to be compiled and converting it to .iso with mdf2iso just makes the file unusable as well | 13:35 |
| Upayavira | Network upgrade from Feisty keeps failing, with update-manager hanging. Any ideas how I can debug the hanging update manager? | 13:35 |
| MenZa | lgc__: the developers would never include a highly-buggy tool into the default instlal. | 13:35 |
| julz | lgc__, thanks, its installing now, yeah its an external drive from my old xp comp. i assume its rea only by default in case your dual booting? | 13:35 |
| tyggy | hello, as anyone seen a work-around for Gutsy Hal error | 13:35 |
| Fracture | MenZa: yeah, that is fantastic.. I used to have to download these dodgy RPMs from canon, then use alien to convert them, and then manually edit some config files... was a pain and often the print spooler would crash. gutsy just rocks | 13:35 |
| MenZa | Fracture: Ugh, alien. Dangerous stuff. | 13:36 |
| chowmeined | garu: i have another idea | 13:36 |
| lgc__ | julz, yes. But do you really want to write to your Xp? | 13:36 |

| MenZa | Crozar: What's the problem? | 13:37 |
| Fracture | MenZa: yeay, dangerous, but better than not being able to print at all. | 13:37 |
| Crozar | its about my CD drive | 13:37 |

| MenZa | lgc__: I've gained better hardware support each time. | 13:40 |
| lgc__ | julz, it's that one usually goes back to Windows to get this and that file, and not much else. Unless one uses Wine (I suppose you do want to be able to write in that case, I'm not sure). | 13:40 |
| chowmeined | garu: no.. its a nice new native linux driver for rt61s | 13:40 |
| adv | hi, i accidentally converted my ntfs win partition to ext3. is there a way to retrieve the files from the ex-ntfs partition? | 13:40 |
| lgc__ | MenZa, do you have a new machine? | 13:40 |
| adv | or re-convert it to ntfs without data loss? | 13:41 |
| MenZa | lgc__: I do indeed | 13:41 |
| chowmeined | adv: probably not | 13:41 |
| JimQode | adv, no if you formatted the drive | 13:41 |
| julz | lgc__, i installed ntfs-3g, but i still cant write to it, it still says in permissions that the root is only user with access to it | 13:41 |
| Crozar | MenZa: have you read it? | 13:41 |
| Crozar | MenZa: i might go back to feisty for verification now | 13:41 |
| MenZa | Crozar: I have. I suggest trying a different drive, or prove that it works on Feisty again. | 13:41 |
| MenZa | Good idea. | 13:41 |

| rzimek78 | how to download the source code of an application in terminal by aptitude ir apt-get? | 13:42 |

| kyled185 | I have at least two computers that are having the same problem | 14:14 |
| Arafangion | feklee: Hmm, I'm not running ubuntu, but depends on how ubuntu does things, you could remove the line in /etc/fstab that mounts /tmp. | 14:14 |
| Arafangion | feklee: And it'll use space in the / partition instead, however, since that isn't the default in Ubuntu, it might not automatically empty /tmp, so you should add a cleanup script, or just watch the space. Might even have to change the permissions as well. | 14:15 |
| feklee | Arafangion, Well no: I want that line to be there. /tmp/ is on sda5, and that's how I want it. | 14:15 |

| Arafangion | feklee: Sorry, I assumed it was. :) I'd go through the /etc/init.d scripts, and find out where it does the removal/cleanup, possibly by grepping for 'rm'. | 14:16 |
| Psi-Jack | When I login from gdm to my account, which loads Gnome2 up and all. I'm suddnly now getting an error: "Internal error" failed to initialize HAL! -- What's causing this and why: I only just recently installed KDE stuff, so I can see how it was all doing these days, and THIS happened. :/ | 14:17 |
| Arafangion | feklee: It might do it at boot, or it might do it at shutdown | 14:17 |
| feklee | Arafangion, there's bootclean - actually that could be it. Thanks for the suggestions. I'll continue investigating ... | 14:17 |

| julz | Chousuke and lgc__, so that means i cant change the owner of these files? bugger. can i write to them if i log in as root? | 14:34 |
| Chousuke | cerkit: they're heavy, so you wouldn't want thateither. | 14:34 |
| abbe | ubuntu: looks like your kernel images have been deleted. | 14:34 |
| Chousuke | julz: no, don't log in as root | 14:35 |
| Sandblasted | please....... | 14:35 |
| abbe | ubuntu: do you've live cd with you ? | 14:35 |

| ubuntu | abbe: what i do from here in live cd, pls | 14:35 |
| cypherdelic | BoomSie: i got that, the OPTION inside of THATR are missing | 14:35 |
| Chousuke | julz: if you have a FAT or an NTFS drive you can set something called an umask | 14:35 |
| cerkit | Chousuke: Well, in my case, the heft is a non-issue. We're talking about for LAN use. | 14:35 |
| cypherdelic | BoomSie: i got that, the OPTION inside of THATR are missing | 14:35 |
| lgc__ | julz, I'm interested in knowing if you could actually change the owner of the file. | 14:35 |
| rbrtw | anyone know how to log or view the logs of the Ubuntu boot messages? | 14:35 |
| rbrtw | not dmesg | 14:35 |
| ubuntu | abbe: obviously im in livecd because it sthe only way to get on. | 14:35 |
| Chousuke | cerkit: well, I don't think it's possible :/ | 14:35 |
| cerkit | Chousuke: But, its cool, I'll just have to get a digital switch, heh. | 14:35 |
| piXelshooter | I istalled ubuntu studio - and nothing has been destroyed :D | 14:35 |

| rbrtw | but the services starting with [OK] etc | 14:35 |

| k | hi i can't open videos with ubuntu 7.10 with Ati radeon igp anyone who can help? | 14:36 |
| abbe | ubuntu: you've SATA disk or PATA disk ? | 14:36 |
| rbrtw | genii: it's not in /var/log/messages | 14:36 |
| cerkit | Chousuke: I'm sure it can be done forwarding X11 to a box with a working Composite extension, ie: Ubuntu w/ Compiz -> Ubuntu w/ Compiz. | 14:36 |
| claudio75 | Arafangion: i already tried | 14:36 |
| ubuntu | abbe: I don't know, im in livecd. do i install again? | 14:36 |
| flokuehn | Arafangion: ok. Do you make any online documentation for this? | 14:36 |
| k | I found @ web that its a video bug is it correct?? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/155531 | 14:36 |
| rbrtw | genii: often you can switch to the boot tty and control-alt-page up | 14:36 |
| cerkit | Chousuke: Its just not going to work elsewhere unless I have a working Composite extension. | 14:36 |
| piXelshooter | [BR]Mike, I can make one! | 14:36 |

| Chousuke | cerkit: hmm, might be. | 14:36 |
| Arafangion | flokuehn: Of course not, I'm just playing around, but I am using www.linuxfromscratch.com as a guide. | 14:36 |
| [BR]Mike | piXelshooter: please... | 14:37 |
| claudio75 | profanephobia: ok...thanks a lot | 14:37 |
| rbrtw | or shift page up it might've been | 14:37 |
| abbe | ubuntu: can you tell me which partition your /boot resides ? | 14:37 |
| genii | rbrtw: If you know the name of the process/startup script you often find an eror log for it in /var/log directory as well | 14:37 |
| Chousuke | julz: so it's read-only | 14:37 |
| claudio75 | profanephobia: may i write you in pvt? | 14:37 |
| [BR]Mike | piXelshooter: andre@preto.com.br | 14:37 |
| Chousuke | julz: is it NTFS? | 14:37 |
| ubuntu | abbe: how do I know that? | 14:37 |
| profanephobia | claudio75, thats fine | 14:37 |
| Chousuke | julz: if so, you need to set it up using ntfs-3g | 14:37 |
| am_ | hallo | 14:37 |
| Chousuke | !ntfs | 14:37 |
| ubotu | ntfs is To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For NTFS write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse | 14:37 |
| abbe | ubuntu: okay, paste the output of "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda" in pm | 14:37 |

| Chousuke | k: what happens when you try to open a video? | 14:39 |
| julz | lgc__, no just an old file on the disc. its autorun.inf, and then the chown was the start of the next line | 14:39 |
| ziro01 | investigating | 14:39 |
| bullgard4 | dubloe7: yes. | 14:39 |
| k | Chousuke: with 6.06 and with flv i played all ok. When I try to open the sample (example) video | 14:39 |

| k | there is a black screen with sound :( | 14:39 |
| Chousuke | k: :/ | 14:40 |
| dubloe7 | bullgard4:thanks | 14:40 |

| Night_XX | hi to all.. | 14:40 |
| Arafangion | flokuehn: irc network... server: irc.linuxfromscratch.org, chanel: #lfs-support | 14:40 |
| flokuehn | Arafangion: ok | 14:40 |
| Arafangion | flokuehn: website: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org | 14:40 |
| Chousuke | k: make some noise about it here occasionally and maybe someone can help | 14:40 |
| lgc__ | julz, bottom line is you didn't get to change ownership of the ntfs files. | 14:40 |
| abbe | asbani: now do this on terminal: sudo mkdir /mnt/x | 14:40 |
| Chousuke | k: but be patient :) | 14:40 |
| k | Yeah maybe its a bug cause the example file is not playin | 14:40 |
| flokuehn | Arafangion: ah thats it. first you wrote .com not .org | 14:41 |
| Chousuke | k: yeah | 14:41 |
| flokuehn | Arafangion: now its working | 14:41 |
| asbani | abbe: done. | 14:41 |
| flokuehn | :) | 14:41 |
| mdmkolbe|ubunt1 | is there a way to do the upgrade to 7.10 in a way that handles interruptions and later network reconnects? does the upgrade "wizard" handle that or will it restart from the beginning if interrupted? | 14:41 |
| crolle17 | i tried to get onto my guest-system by ssh ip.of.the.guest but i got a connection refused... | 14:41 |
| abbe | asbani: after that: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/x | 14:41 |
| k | I will be patient.. I like opensource and I know that the guys who build ubuntu for us are not g0ds :) | 14:41 |
| Arafangion | flokuehn: Oh, sorry - my mistake. :) | 14:41 |
| asbani | abbe: okay done | 14:41 |
| Chousuke | k: you could try searching the forums for info too | 14:41 |
| Chousuke | or google | 14:41 |
| julz | lgc__, is my only chance to log in as root at the login screen and manage them throught there? is that even possible? to log in as root? | 14:41 |
| k | with the 6.06 which was my previous distro all were OK | 14:41 |
| k | yes I posted too | 14:41 |
| flokuehn | Arafangion: doesnt matter. | 14:41 |
| abbe | asbani: paste the output of "cat /mnt/x/boot/menu.lst" in pm | 14:42 |
| Chousuke | julz: if it's a read-only file system logging in as root won't help | 14:42 |
| lgc__ | julz, perhaps Chousuke can explain you what he has in mind with the umask trick. I would just become root and access the files. | 14:42 |
| Night_XX | i've a problem,,i've ricompiled the latest version of kernel but it show a kernel panic at every boot...it show something like.. "CVS: not sincyng: unable to mount root (0,0)" anyone can help me? | 14:42 |

| joerack | Guys I have a big problem , can you help me | 14:42 |
| asbani | abbe: nothing is there, no directory | 14:42 |
| lgc__ | julz, you can launch nautilus with 'gksu nautilus' (from a terminal). | 14:42 |
| joerack | Drat! I forgot the question | 14:42 |
| Arafangion | flokuehn: It's alot of work, really, but it's fun and interesting, at first. Ubuntu's better for a generic system, imho, but if you're after education, or have very specific goals in mind, then lfs isn't bad. | 14:42 |
| garu | mdmkolbe|ubunt1 u better do the upgrade with a wired connection :o! | 14:42 |
| Chousuke | Handling permissions with external drives is still something ubuntu doesn't do very well :( | 14:43 |
| chippy | joerack, that big eh? | 14:43 |
| julz | lgc__ and Chousuke; ill try now to log in as root and see if that works, if not ill take Chousuke up on this idea. brb :) | 14:43 |
| abbe | abbe: hmm... | 14:43 |
| asbani | abbe: nothing | 14:43 |
| Arafangion | chippy: For all OS's, in general, actually. | 14:43 |
| abbe | asbani: sorry, paste the output of "cat /mnt/x/boot/grub/menu.lst" in pm | 14:43 |
| Chousuke | julz: it's not possible to log in as root. | 14:43 |
| asbani | what is the latest Kernel? | 14:43 |
| joerack | Oh right, what software do you use in Linux for dvd -ripping ? | 14:43 |
| Chousuke | julz: or it's very much not recommended. | 14:43 |
| mdmkolbe|ubunt1 | garu: :-( | 14:43 |
| Chousuke | julz: there's *always* another solution | 14:43 |
| josss | hi | 14:44 |
| [BR]Mike | I got a stupid question... wish somebody can answer me, does Ubuntu SERVER not come with proFTPd or something like it by default? | 14:44 |
| Arafangion | Chousuke: For all OS's, in general. (Sorry chippy) | 14:44 |
| Saiyajin | hi. i've got a small annoyance. im running gutsy and installed fusion-icon. when i run it, there's no actual image of the icon, just a blank space in the tray although its there when i right click that blank spot. any ideas? thanks | 14:44 |
| asbani | abbe: very long, want me to pastebin it on web? | 14:44 |
| josss | i can't boot the livecd | 14:44 |
| flokuehn | Arafangion: ok. it really sounds interesting. i will have close look to this site and lfs | 14:44 |
| julz | Chousuke: haha even if i dont meddle with anything? | 14:44 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: Why should it? | 14:44 |
| josss | 7.10 | 14:44 |
| chippy | :) Arafangion | 14:44 |
| abbe | asbani: pastebin might take time, that's why I want it on pm | 14:44 |
| lgc__ | julz, and I'll go get my cold shower now... | 14:44 |
| josss | it showed cannot display this video mode | 14:44 |
| Psi-Jack | I'm now successfully annoyed. Everytime I ever come ask a question here, I never get any answers, almost always ignored. But I help people, quite often when I'm around. | 14:44 |
| x_ | anyone knows a good Stream-ripper ?! | 14:44 |
| Chousuke | julz: yeah. Ubuntu is designed so that running as root should be useless | 14:44 |
| sunoct | I am having problems getting my Radeon x1600 pci e card connected, is there someone out there that could possible give me a hand? | 14:44 |
| garu | mdmkolbe|ubunt1 lol...why cant u do it with a wired connection? | 14:44 |
| julz | lgc__, hah thanks for all your help, much appreciated :) | 14:44 |
| [BR]Mike | Arafangion: well, if I use the alias to be a WebServer, how should I put files there? | 14:44 |
| Chousuke | julz: you should only need root for system maintenance | 14:45 |
| josss | anyone? | 14:45 |
| julz | Chousuke: so whats this unmask thing? | 14:45 |
| [BR]Mike | sunoct: connected? or to work? | 14:45 |
| abbe | asbani: do this on terminal: ls -l /mnt/x/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic | 14:45 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: Well, you might install an ftp server, if you want, but why should it be there by *default*? | 14:45 |
| x_ | who knows a good STREAMRIPPER program ?! | 14:45 |
| nomad111 | hey all how do i mount a *.nrg image in ubuntu | 14:45 |
| Psi-Jack | Chousuke: No, not useless. Just not having to be required for everything. Making it easier so when you DO need to be root, it auto-su's to root to do it. | 14:45 |
| [BR]Mike | Arafangion: is there any other way to put files on the server other then FTP? | 14:45 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: ssh. ;) | 14:46 |
| bullgard4 | *Ubuntu Open Week* will start in 15 minutes. | 14:46 |
| Chousuke | julz: it's a mechanism to apply "permissions" to partitions that don't support unix style permissions. | 14:46 |
| mdmkolbe|ubunt1 | garu: b/c I don't have one (campus wireless) | 14:46 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: Also, sftp. | 14:46 |
| roe | [BR]Mike, scp sftp nfs, etc | 14:46 |
| Psi-Jack | [BR]Mike: sftp. | 14:46 |
| defrysk | x_, streamripper | 14:46 |
| sunoct | [BR]Mike, I got it connected, I just can't get it to work, when I enable the restricted driver than restart, it still starts up in low graphics mode, without the restricted driver enabled | 14:46 |
| Chousuke | Psi-Jack: sudo's exactly why logging in as root is useless :) | 14:46 |
| abbe | asbani: so it means your kernels are missing | 14:46 |
| x_ | defrysk what ?!!! | 14:46 |
| josss | Psi-Jack: any solution for this problem? | 14:46 |
| Psi-Jack | sftp, nfs, scp, smb, MANY others. | 14:46 |
| SteveBallmer | the solution . | 14:46 |
| asbani | abbe: so whats the solution | 14:46 |
| joerack | What is Linux alternative for DVD-Ripping | 14:46 |
| [BR]Mike | Arafangion, roe: I better be quiet... | 14:46 |
| defrysk | x_, sudo apt-get install streamripper | 14:46 |
| garu | mdmkolbe|ubunt1 ooohhhh...that's pretty bad! | 14:46 |
| julz | Chousuke: so i could write to the ntfs drive with unmask? | 14:46 |
| abbe | asbani: do this: sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/x/dev | 14:46 |
| [BR]Mike | sunoct: download the ATI driver in the ATI page... | 14:46 |
| Psi-Jack | josss: I've not been following along. | 14:47 |
| abbe | asbani: now do this: sudo mount -o bind /proc /mnt/x/proc | 14:47 |
| [BR]Mike | Arafangion: sftp em scp is on by default? | 14:47 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: Not to mention... not every server is a webserver, and enabling ftp by default is really silly in terms of security. | 14:47 |
| nomad111 | does anyone know how to mount an *.nrg image file | 14:47 |
| sunoct | [BR]Mike, how do I install that driver? | 14:47 |
| asbani | abbe: both done | 14:47 |
| Chousuke | julz: That just solves the permission issue. To make it writable in the first place you must make sure you're using ntfs-3g to mount it | 14:47 |
| x_ | defrysk thanks :-) | 14:47 |
| [BR]Mike | sunoct: download and run... with ./ file | 14:47 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: I would imagine so, I don't run ubuntu as a server. | 14:47 |
| Chousuke | !ntfs-3g | julz | 14:47 |
| ubotu | julz: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 14:47 |
| josss | Psi-Jack: when the livecd boot up,it showed cannot display in this video mode | 14:47 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: You'd need sshd running. | 14:47 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: It's the canonical secure way of using it. | 14:48 |
| abbe | asbani: sudo mount -o bind /sys /mnt/x/sys | 14:48 |

| Chester | Hello everbody | 14:48 |
| Empty | is it possible to install Ubuntu 7.10 from Windows to a USB stick and boot from it? I've tried the PenDriveLinux.com method for 7.04, with the ub7convert.zip but it did'nt work... | 14:48 |
| defrysk | nomad111, sudo apt-get install nrg2iso | 14:48 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: Written by the openBSD team, actually. | 14:48 |
| defrysk | nomad111, then mount the created iso | 14:48 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: Which is teh canonical secure OS. ;) | 14:48 |
| julz | Chousuke: i have ntfs-3g installed already, but i dont know if i am using it to mount the drive, it doesnt tell me so | 14:48 |
| abbe | asbani: now do this: chroot /mnt/x /bin/bash | 14:48 |
| josss | Psi-Jack: ATi radeon X1300 pro | 14:48 |
| [BR]Mike | Arafangion: I know its not secure, but its a small test server... but thankyou anyway... i need to study more | 14:48 |
| Tpop | Empty: Yes, one of our admins here did it. | 14:48 |
| roe | Empty, yes, but the caveat is that your MBR needs to reflect where your linux kernel image is | 14:48 |
| Psi-Jack | defrysk: You do know you can mount nrg's directly, right? No conversion needed. | 14:48 |
| [BR]Mike | Arafangion: secure OS? | 14:48 |
| Chousuke | julz: what does "mount" say about the drive (type it in terminal) | 14:49 |
| Empty | Tpop: is there a guide online? | 14:49 |
| [BR]Mike | Arafangion: nany page about it? | 14:49 |
| [BR]Mike | any* | 14:49 |
| Chester | somebody has problems with Gusty and exception emask? | 14:49 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: www.openbsd.org, I believe. | 14:49 |
| Chousuke | julz: I wish they'd fix this already :/ | 14:49 |
| Psi-Jack | josss: Odd. I have the X1600 and it worked. But ATI support in Linux is pure unaltered crap, so your millage will varry with it, and suck. | 14:49 |
| Graaab | Olá ! Algum português que me diga se posso instalar compiz-fusion numa gráfica Radeon 9250? | 14:49 |
| defrysk | Psi-Jack, did not know that | 14:49 |
| Chousuke | julz: this is the only major hurdle most people have with ubuntu :/ | 14:49 |
| sponix | Psi-Jack: no doubt, I have the X1400 in this lappy | 14:49 |
| [BR]Mike | Holly its been a while since I don't use irc, its giving me headache... | 14:49 |
| Chousuke | they need some simple tool for managing external drive permissions | 14:50 |
| josss | Psi-Jack: but i have no problem with 7.04 | 14:50 |
| Psi-Jack | defrysk: Yes. You can. heh. nrg is just an ISO with some headers up front, skip those headers and it mounts like a normal ISO. | 14:50 |

| Chousuke | mc44: does ntfs-config set the umask and user/group settings properly? :/ | 14:51 |
| user1__ | joerack, you will miss more things | 14:51 |

| [BR]Mike | Graaab: lsmod, se estiver listado os mods da ATI então tá beleza... | 14:52 |
| Arafangion | [BR]Mike: And also install samba on the server, that'll make it easier, given that it's just a home project, keep in mind that an externally accessible samba server is idiotic, and really bad for security. | 14:52 |
| MohammadBoozary | I need a proxy soft ware for ubuntu for anonimous surfing in web | 14:52 |
| [chr0n0s] | [BR]Mike, there is no package like xfce-desktop, or xfce4-desktop | 14:52 |
| abbe | asbani: this will reinstall kernel :) | 14:52 |
| MohammadBoozary | please help me | 14:52 |
| mc44 | Chousuke: yeah. gutsy is meant to do ntfs3g by default properly but I don't think external works properly yet | 14:52 |
| josss | i swear i do not ever buy Ati graphics card again | 14:52 |

| jonjon09 | Ive already asked this but just to make sure, I cant downgrade from 7.10 to 7.04 without reinstalling 7.04, right? | 14:53 |
| abbe | asbani: yup :) | 14:53 |
| Chousuke | oh, damn, this channel is advancing fast | 14:53 |
| [BR]Mike | [chr0n0s]: use the xfce4, much better... if you want the HOLE desktop to be on Xubuntu, you should try xubuntu-desktop | 14:53 |
| asbani | abbe: but then i have to re-install all drivers again right? Video card and sound etc? | 14:53 |
| abbe | asbani: but after install kernel, ping me | 14:53 |
| julz | Chousuke: ntfs-config is installed laready | 14:53 |
| Arafangion | Chousuke: Learn to skim-read, and pay attention to only those that specifically mention your nick. | 14:53 |
| PriceChild | !downgrade | jonjon09 | 14:53 |
| abbe | asbani: nop | 14:53 |
| ubotu | jonjon09: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 14:53 |
| Chousuke | julz: run it. | 14:53 |
| roe | Empty, not that I know of, but if you are familiar with dual booting it is just a couple lines the grub conf | 14:53 |
| Chousuke | Arafangion: I have no problem reading | 14:53 |
| x_ | %C2what's command line in terminal for EMERALD and BERYL ?! | 14:53 |
| abbe | asbani: btw, how it happened suddenly ? | 14:53 |
| mc44 | jonjon09: why do you want to downgrade? | 14:53 |
| josss | Psi Jack: so,ati has serious issue with linux support? | 14:53 |
| Arafangion | Chousuke: In other words, don't read everything. ;) | 14:53 |
| julz | through apps, system, ntfs config? | 14:53 |
| Chousuke | Arafangion: just... typing at the same time is a bit problematic :) | 14:53 |
| asbani | abbe: because last thing i did in normal system was installing some package from synaptic called "usbmgr" check it out in your synaptic manager. | 14:53 |
| Chousuke | julz: yes I suppose | 14:53 |
| * MohammadBoozary I need a proxy soft ware for ubuntu for anonimous surfing in web | 14:53 | |

| Arafangion | Chousuke: Ahh, you're not a touch typist? | 14:54 |
| nanonyme | [br]mike, whole, not hole... | 14:54 |
| asbani | abbe: this package I think have removed from me "restricted driver & Kernel" | 14:54 |
| Chousuke | well, I guess I am | 14:54 |
| Chousuke | but not that fast | 14:54 |
| asbani | abbe: automatically removed. then it reboots me, and here it starts. | 14:54 |
| LifeNomad | Can anyone help? I am getting this error in Gusty, after trying to do a "compiz --replace" I get an error "Comparing resolution.....3d texture size : failed" | 14:54 |

| abbe | asbani: was this kernel problematic ? | 14:54 |
| asbani | abbe: check its info, does it really remove Restricted driver & Kernel? | 14:54 |
| josss | LifeNomad: using ati card? | 14:54 |

| Arafangion | Chousuke: According to various dubious benchmarks, anyway. | 14:54 |
| asbani | abbe: I dunno tbh im newbie | 14:54 |

| sunoct | what command do I need to use to run the ati driver install? it's located at /home/tom/Desktop/ati-driver-installer-8.40.4-x86.x86_64.run | 14:54 |

| LifeNomad | josss: yes | 14:54 |
| YogiBear | re all | 14:55 |

| Chousuke | hmm | 14:58 |
| mc44 | jonjon09: have you tried reinstalling firefox? | 14:58 |

| rsfriends | how can i renew my ip | 14:58 |
| Chousuke | julz: does /etc/fstab have a line with "ntfs" on it somewhere? you can view it with "cat /etc/fstab" | 14:58 |

| mc44 | jonjon09: try booting into recovery mode then | 15:09 |
| kst | really dont see much positive in gutsy when I could just aswell install feisty and get compiz-fusion for it :/ | 15:09 |
| Slart | josss: I seem to recall it running at full speed almost all the time.. 950kB/s download speed | 15:09 |
| [BR]Mike | josss: it downloads about 1 gb of packages... do your calculation... | 15:09 |
| Cochise | kst, if you boot xp and open network connections in control panel and write down the ip address, gateway address and subnet and use them in ubuntu for your wired connection it'll work i had to do it with mine dhcp wont work | 15:09 |
| bipolar | Hey everyone. I just did a fresh install of Gutsy on myy Dell D820 laptop. Now when X starts my external monitor, plugged into the docking station, says "No Signal". Console works fine. I've tried several resolutions to no effect. Anyone know what might be happening? | 15:09 |
| tony_ | Does anyone know how to get my wireless to kick on? It shows up in iwconfig under eth1, but this is what it says: http://pastebin.com/m665ee1e9 | 15:10 |
| bipolar | Also the laptop screen itself works fine w/ X at 1920x1200 | 15:10 |
| kst | Cochise the point is it was always working with dhcp on feisty and even gutsy, but when I tried to connect via WLAN everything got broken | 15:10 |
| hannes_ | It workd, thanx a lot! | 15:10 |
| jonjon09 | mc44 alright Im in. so I just type this (apt-cache policy ubuntu-desktop) | 15:10 |
| [BR]Mike | bipolar: dock and undock, if dont work, check if the video drivers are properly installed | 15:10 |

| aata | !cloning | 15:10 |
| ubotu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 15:10 |
| jonjon09 | mc44 ok my bad ^^ | 15:11 |
| xgermx_work | quick question, what does "sudo apt-get install -f" do? | 15:11 |

| tony_ | Can anyone help with wireless? I used the correct .inf in ndiswrapper, but my laptop can't connect wirelessly. | 15:11 |
| tony_ | I had it working before | 15:12 |
| Cochise | kst, oh though it wasnt working in gutsy, mine worked in feisty but not in gutsy. have you checked to see if your network is configured to roaming mode, System > Administration > Network | 15:12 |
| tummy | i mean i let my box boot on single user, can i make my system not read only? | 15:12 |
| mc44 | tony_: what does ndiswrapper -l say? | 15:12 |
| jonjon09 | mc44 it says Installed: (none) Candidate 1.43 and then talks about Version table | 15:12 |
| xgermx_work | Thanks mates! | 15:12 |
| mc44 | jonjon09: ok do "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" | 15:12 |
| mc44 | jonjon09: no quotes ;) | 15:12 |
| jonjon09 | mc44 lol | 15:12 |
| tony_ | mc44: It says bcmw15: invalid driver! | 15:12 |
| [BR]Mike | bipolar: if I'm sure, the dock properties of Dell, runs by a small app of dell, 90% sure... | 15:12 |
| mc44 | tony_: did you use the same driver as last time? | 15:13 |
| tony_ | mc44: That doesn't make sense -- I was using this driver before | 15:13 |
| tony_ | yes | 15:13 |
| tony_ | Same one | 15:13 |
| mc44 | :/ | 15:13 |
| ghost89 | anyone here use teamspeak 2? | 15:13 |
| kst | can you read this? | 15:13 |
| jonjon09 | mc44 it says E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). | 15:13 |
| un_dave_ | how do i check the version of nvidia drivers i'm currently using? | 15:13 |

| Psi-Jack | ghost89: I use it, yes. | 15:15 |
| Cochise | kst, do you get errors for your wireless? | 15:15 |
| mc44 | jonjon09: with whatever instead of gb | 15:15 |

| mc44 | tony_: hmm, no idea then :/ | 15:15 |
| [BR]Mike | 56k Phone connection RLZ | 15:15 |
| IdleOne | PecisDarbs: Im not sure I understand correctly but I believe that if you take a look at !seveas there is a app in there called falcon ( repository builder ) it may help with your rsync issue . I might be completly off the mark here | 15:15 |
| jonjon09 | mc44 I have this except it is followed by universe multiverse | 15:15 |
| vegpuff | how do you detect network card without HAL's help? | 15:15 |

| tony_ | mc44: Thanks for trying | 15:15 |
| jonjon09 | mc44 and on top is the same saying feisty instead of gutsy | 15:15 |
| [BR]Mike | mbone: I haven't read your question... | 15:15 |
| Psi-Jack | ghost89: I told it what device to use for my sound, which in my case was /dev/dsp2 since that's my USB headset. And it worked. Next. | 15:16 |
| [BR]Mike | mbone: whats your problema? | 15:16 |

| jonjon09 | mc44 yes I did that, should I comment out the one saying deb-src about gutsy also ? and what about the cdrom thing | 15:19 |
| mc44 | jonjon09: no you can leave them in, shouldn't make a difference | 15:19 |

| GmLB | sorto, you can just type uptime to give you the load or top for interactive watching | 15:50 |
| GmLB | sorto, uptime gives you the load averages as decimal values, you can look up what they mean easily on google | 15:51 |
| sorto | GmLB: thanks, thats great | 15:51 |
| mc44 | jonjon09: it's trying to install feisty versions of those packages, so if we get the gutsy versions then install them manually it should work | 15:51 |
| GmLB | sorto, basically anything over 1.0 means the CPU is getting more processes than it can handle per second, i believe | 15:51 |

| bobbob1016 | gribouille: You need another PC to do it though. You could try doing a Debian install, then installing the "ubuntu-desktop" package, which should give you a full ubuntu as far as I know. | 16:14 |

| lee986321 | oh boy i have got to get used to the cube thing lol | 16:16 |
| bobbob1016 | jdong: I thought it found what gave me the best power improvement based on what is taking the most power at the given moment. | 16:16 |
| jonjon09 | mc44 is there a way to fix it | 16:16 |

| mc44 | jonjon09: I'm uploading the correct gutsy versions in one package, this might work if you install them with dpkg | 16:17 |
| nitrocks | [chr0n0s]: the only information i can find on there is referring to a whitelisted driver.. that is not the issue im having | 16:17 |

| lietu | Yancho: for example the space between "Matthew" and "Pulis" | 16:17 |
| bobbob1016 | gribouille: It might not be that easy to install Gutsy without a CD, or starting with debian. The network installer I found was for Dapper, and you could go Dapper - Edgy - Feisty - Gutsy, but it is recommended that you do install - upgrade -upgrade - fresh install and so on | 16:18 |

| tlarkin244 | fluxd http://pastebin.ca/745633 | 16:44 |
| pheld | west_: download the file into your homedir. It's an executable. Open a terminal. Make it executable with "chmod +x RealPlayer10GOLD.bin". Execute it as root to install system-wide with "sudo RealPlayer10GOLD.bin", install it for example in /opt/RealPlayer and let the installer make symlinks in /usr. That should be it | 16:44 |

| Dr_willis_ | Reng, use tune2fs and change the reserved % to like 1% then | 17:10 |
| SpComb | mahone: then remove sudo access | 17:10 |

| aata | k | 17:12 |
| SpComb | mahone: impossible | 17:12 |
| SpComb | sudo == root access | 17:12 |
| aata | anyone? | 17:13 |
| aata | dpkg help? | 17:13 |
| Gek_ | whats the preferred ftp server? | 17:13 |

| SpComb | there's a million and one different ways to get a root bash prompt given sudo | 17:13 |
| SlimG | Is there any compiz-fusion 0.6.2 packages available for ubuntu? | 17:13 |
| Dr_willis_ | tony_, I think thers some special service that monitors the networking and it Might be restarting the networking.. But ive given up totally on wireless... so cant help much. | 17:13 |
| saloxin | aata: nope, dpkg doesn't do rollback in time | 17:13 |
| mahone | SpComb: Isn't this an huge hole in security? | 17:13 |
| I_AM_LIFESF | can anyone explain why my nick is frozen in use? | 17:13 |
| SpComb | mahone: no. It's the point of sudo | 17:13 |
| aata | saloxin is there any way i can do that, | 17:13 |
| aata | ? | 17:13 |
| Dr_willis_ | tony_, I thought there were various panel tools thta let you change networks quickly also. | 17:13 |
| saloxin | tony_: NetworkManager should do the trick | 17:13 |
| dubloe7 | is someone here good with install issues? | 17:13 |

| SpComb | you obviously don | 17:14 |
| SpComb | you obviously don't give untrusted users sudoer access | 17:14 |
| saloxin | aata: manually you can look at the dates of files in /var/cache/apt/archives | 17:14 |
| mahone | SpComb: No, I refer to the fact that you can enter into a root bash shell without knowing the root password... | 17:14 |
| aata | its a long story but i installed a whole lot of packages that i shouldnt have, and now i cant boot into gdm | 17:14 |
| christiankl | I still want sudo to work again... can anyone help me? | 17:14 |
| SpComb | mahone: if you have sudo access, yes | 17:14 |
| whawhawhaT | I just upgraded to 7.10 since: accessing web sites as well as thunderbird accessing images in email takes a long time | 17:14 |

| dubloe7 | can someone please help with my install issue before i smash my laptop? | 17:15 |
| mahone | SpComb: So if an attacker steals the file, he can still try to crack it, right? | 17:15 |
| saloxin | dubloe7: whats vga adaptor does it have? | 17:15 |
| arpeggi | so i'm using partition editor as i want to keep my vista partition | 17:15 |
| SpComb | mahone: that means that you can't directly log in as root, but you can still get a root shell open | 17:15 |
| dubloe7 | saloxin:its a laptop, so its the built in display | 17:15 |
| aata | so saloxin, anything to ease my trouble mind? | 17:15 |
| Whitor | dubloe7: use the second install option that ends (VGA Mode) | 17:15 |
| SpComb | well, he can crack the password hash, but he can't really use it for anything | 17:16 |
| tony_ | saloxin: It did before I reinstalled | 17:16 |
| FluxD | arpeggi: ubuntu live cd has gparted | 17:16 |

| dubloe7 | whitor: ok, it says 'ubuntu is running in low graphics mode: your screen and graphics card could not be detected correctly. to use higher resolutions, visual effects, or multiple screens, you have to configure the display yourself' | 17:27 |
| dubloe7 | whitor:should i configure or continue | 17:27 |

| FluxD | arpeggi: right click on the fat16 and see if it has a mount option | 17:27 |

| christiankl | sudo-issues. i refuse to accept that i'm the first person in history to encounter this. and i really whish someone could help me before i resign and reinstall. | 17:28 |
| pdelgado | the problem is I reconfigured xorg and installed the fglrx module.. but even tho I restart the machine... the old fglrx module is still loaded.. and Xorg still uses Mesa instead of ATI's driver... | 17:28 |

| godzirra | Dr_willis_: It is. | 17:45 |
| dubloe7 | godzirra:the problem is that after i installed it there are issues | 17:45 |
| kevinO | :-/ | 17:45 |
| godzirra | Compiz Fusion is the merged Beryl and Compiz projects. Both those projects are dead. | 17:45 |
| godzirra | dubloe7: if the live cd works, and after install it doesn't, its most likely a problem with your Xorg.conf | 17:46 |
| Dr_willis_ | I find the whole 'compiz' stuff to be Very much a work in progress.. :) | 17:46 |
| godzirra | OR something else. Because if X starts on the livecd, your card will work with ubuntu. | 17:46 |
| kshlmster | No new features then in compiz-fusin | 17:46 |
| FluxD | kevinO: loading screen meaning GDM ? | 17:46 |
| Dr_willis_ | its getting pushed onto the public a little too soon.. it seems in many cases.. but thats how ya get the most bug reports I guess. | 17:46 |
| godzirra | I agree, Dr_willis_ | 17:46 |
| kevinO | FluxD: sorry the boot screen | 17:46 |
| godzirra | installing compiz fusion was a pain in the rear, and getting it work well was harder than beryl was by a long shot. | 17:46 |
| Dr_willis_ | My wife made me turn off the wiggly windows - they made her seasick | 17:47 |
| FluxD | kevinO: grub ? | 17:47 |
| godzirra | lol | 17:47 |
| * IntuitiveNipple has been waiting 45 minutes for Windows to install service pack 2, and it's only 30% of the way there | 17:47 | |
| Dr_willis_ | godzirra, i will say it was rather trivial to get going under kubuntu 7.10 :) | 17:47 |
| gary_inNYC | ? in gutsy compiz-fusion is already installed, you just needed to install the settings manager | 17:47 |
| godzirra | Yes, that is true. ;) | 17:47 |
| godzirra | I meant when I installed it in feisty. | 17:47 |
| dwezel | could someone please tell me what file holds the resolutions available for X? | 17:47 |
| kevinO | FluxD: yes, its a default install with grub, after grub loads the kernel, and you see the ubuntu logo with the progress indicator, thats whats messed up | 17:47 |
| Dr_willis_ | godzirra, i knew better then to even try it in feisty. :) | 17:47 |
| FluxD | dwezel: xorg.conf | 17:48 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Settings Manager is there as System > Preferences > Advanced Desktop Effects Settings | 17:48 |
| Dr_willis_ | !fixres | dwezel | 17:48 |

| guerby | hi, I need to upgrade a friend machine from feisty to gutsy but his internet is slow and I'd like to avoid spending to much time in front of the download, what is the best way to preload the needed packages before doing the update? | 17:54 |
| Tom_Kun | noone else experiencing any troubles with oo.org in 7.10? | 17:54 |
| dubloe7 | godzirra:splash screen shows up fine though, thats what i dont get | 17:55 |
| FluxD | thrashy: it should technically | 17:55 |
| FluxD | thrashy: try weak key and 6bit | 17:55 |
| FluxD | 64 | 17:55 |
| Dr_willis_ | guerby, you could ssh into his box and upgrade it from the command line.. and sit in your own house. :) | 17:55 |
| MurielGodoi | !dvd | 17:55 |
| ubotu | For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 17:55 |
| Dr_willis_ | guerby, given the # of issues ive seen with upgrades. you might want to have a cd handy to do a clean install if needed.. actually i THINK you can some how upgrade from the cd's | 17:55 |
| JediMaster | wow, I have to take my hat off to the UK ubuntu mirror sysadmin, I just dist-upgraded on our server in London to gutsy, and got: Fetched 262MB in 26s (9823kB/s)... That's nearly 90Mbps!! | 17:55 |
| MurielGodoi | Anyone knows the torrent for the dvd version? I can't found the link | 17:55 |
| guerby | Dr_willis_, yes but with previous upgrades I had to tweak a few things for X to work, etc... | 17:55 |
| thrashy | FluxD: Ok thanks, I'll give it a shot | 17:56 |
| Dr_willis_ | guerby, one of the reasons i always do clean installs. :) | 17:56 |
| ubuntero_numero1 | MurielGodoi, its on all the mirrors | 17:56 |
| ubuntero_numero1 | oops | 17:56 |
| godzirra | dubloe7: Splash screen when booting up has nothing to do with X. When you see the grub prompt that says "hit escape for grub menu" hit escape and choose recovery mode. That will get you to a command prompt. Then try this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 17:56 |
| ubuntero_numero1 | darn it | 17:56 |
| guerby | Dr_willis_, may be the upgrade is able to read from a preloaded ISO | 17:56 |
| Tom_Kun | hehe, it's busy here tonight :) | 17:56 |

| Dr_willis_ | xworkming, for that low end a machine. You may want server and use console only. No X at all.. Or perhaps a lighter linux disrto like PuppyLinux/Featherlinux | 18:03 |

| MurielGodoi | Dr_willis_: I use ktorrent too. I said web-based torrent client for new-user case | 18:04 |
| Dr_willis_ | [chr0n0s], and what does that do? if its a service you need to run it from rc.local perhaps. | 18:04 |
| claudio75 | please......help me with my webcam!!!!!!! | 18:04 |

| misha | jburd: Ya, clearing the cache makes no difference(if ipv6 dns is still enabled). "Looking up" is taking all the time | 18:54 |
| cosmodad | tomlarkin: look out for an ntfs partition (or vfat if you've installed Windows into a FAT16/32 partition) | 18:54 |
| FluxD | mayfairy: change the layout in keyboard? | 18:54 |
| vladimir_e | Pici: thnx, will look into it | 18:54 |
| jburd | misha: Okay. That does mean DNS resolving is taking a lot of time. | 18:54 |
| cosmodad | tomlarkin: nevermind that paranthesed statement, ntfsfix needs ntfs :) | 18:54 |

| kc | beni that is what my trouble shooting brought me to as well, however just one finial problem remains, i just started using ubuntu a week ago, and that was a live disc that i had which was 6.10, i upgraded to 7.04 that same day and now am on 7.10 thanks to free updates is there a free update that will fix my grub??? | 19:11 |
| oliver_g1 | aaisen: wow sounds evil :-) | 19:11 |
| Gaska | aha okey | 19:11 |
| FluxD | jasonY: I use this http://pastebin.ca/745793 | 19:11 |
| FluxD | Tesium: that never worked for me for some reason | 19:11 |
| aaisen | oliver_gl, plus for some reason the some fonts now raster bizarely, although that might just be my eyes playing tricks on me | 19:11 |
| beni_ | kc: so grub is listing the "old" kernel versions, too? | 19:11 |
| Tesium | FluxD, so how did you get them installed? | 19:11 |
| jainmjo | jasonY: no...wont work | 19:11 |
| jasonY | ok thank you | 19:12 |
| oliver_g1 | aaisen: sounds like you have to solve every problem for itself... like, fiddling with the font/hinting settings | 19:12 |

| jagsUT | im just curious | 19:12 |
| mnemo | is alsa a part of the linux kernel? | 19:12 |
| newubuntie | PROBLEM: selecting Vista in grub menu makes system to reboot. Yesterday it was working but computer hung up in Windows and I had to shut it down | 19:13 |
| DreamThief | zzxc, that's the point I want to find out. the problem is, that only few people own such a highend audigy card and therefor the number of people to ask is very limited. I'm also in discussion with some guys from the alsa project do determine if it's probably an alsa bug | 19:13 |
| zzxc | mnemo: yes | 19:13 |
| oliver_g1 | aaisen: ... and debugging cups, and adding yourself to the bug about Networkmanager-glitchyness, and so on :-) | 19:13 |
| beni_ | jagsUT: the dvd codecs, compiz-fusion and gnome art manager | 19:13 |

| krobar | Need help. I'm was running VMWare SERVER 1.0.3 build 44356 which was installed via ubuntu server 7.04 (?) off Applications/Add Remove. This morning I upgraded to Ubuntu 7.1 - not Vmware doesn't work. I get the following error message when I try to start ANY vmware session "Unable to change virtual machine power state: The process exited with an error: End of error message." | 19:13 |
| zzxc | DreamThief: It's almost certarinly a problem in alsa. Have you tried the latest svn code for alsa? (You should be able to compile it for the 2.6.22 kernel) | 19:13 |
| mnemo | zzxc: and libasound2 is just an easier way to communicate with the kernel land parts of alsa then? | 19:13 |
| don-o | ryo_: i think you let it hijack it, then restore it. | 19:14 |
| kc | beni there are several choices so i am guessing that they are all the old versions too, but the top one being a server load and the one just below it is this load that i am using now | 19:14 |
| oliver_g1 | beni_: I meant: he should look at the settings under system, settings, appearance, fonts | 19:14 |
| ryo_ | don-o Yeah, I did that once, but now every single time I boot it, it re-hijacks it. | 19:14 |
| don-o | ryo_: oh. freaky. | 19:14 |

| Tesium | FluxD, i cannot find any emerald-themes package... hmmm... where should i look for such an option? | 19:15 |
| beni_ | kc: I'll pick a tutorial for you | 19:15 |
| zzxc | krobar: You will need to reinstall vmware. New vmware kernel drivers need to be compiled. | 19:15 |

| FluxD | Tesium: so u have compiz-fusion? | 19:16 |
| zzxc | krobar: It was probably messed up in the upgrade. The vmware server release is quite old anyway, you could try other free virtualization software. | 19:16 |

| oliver_g1 | pookey: I had to manually upgrade some packages because the update manager didn't want to upgrade them | 19:18 |
| BoomSie | Is there a way to install an older gutsy kernel, like 22-12 ? | 19:18 |
| stefg | Metal03, there's a services control applet in the system-admin-menu | 19:18 |

| kst | is there some kind of wiki for gutsy and xgl? i wanna mess with a 2nd session so i get xgl/compiz AND xorg/fglrx at the same time... but the wiki is still on 7.04 and tells me NOT to follow it as Xgl has changed a lot... | 19:19 |
| earl1 | can someone pm me | 19:19 |
| orduek | i can't change my screen rate - i only have 60hz | 19:19 |
| Moduliz0r | orduek: I only have 50Hz :| | 19:19 |
| chorne | Tesium, did you grab the keys following the instructions at the bottom of the window? | 19:19 |
| orduek | and how you get along? | 19:19 |
| FluxD | earl1: about? | 19:19 |

| Metal03 | stefg: ok, and after I'll install the graphic drivers I need, I'll have to restart X... How do I re-activate it then? | 19:20 |
| chorne | Tesium, that did it for me, the non-free import snagged me 15 themes or so | 19:20 |
| Tesium | chorne, tried... one key only... but the svn command doesn't work for me... installed some svn packages... still nothing... | 19:20 |
| beni_ | Metal03: restart your x-server by pressing CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE simultaneousliy | 19:20 |
| chorne | Tesium, then I have no idea, sorry...worked here | 19:20 |
| Moduliz0r | Yay Ubuntu's Copy & Paste is so awesome, it forgets instantly | 19:20 |
| Metal03 | beni_: event when X is not set to boot at all? | 19:21 |

| fr0nk | i tried almost everything | 20:02 |
| scorp123 | fr0nk: you'd have to recompile the module ... it's not really "incompatible" .... | 20:02 |
| fr0nk | scorp123: uh, this sounds great, would you please /msg me if you found something? | 20:02 |
| scorp123 | fr0nk: stay tuned ... I am checking what possibilities there are. | 20:02 |
| musashi1 | newuser: no i don't think it's restricted formats. the ntfs3g or whatever is needed to write to ntfs | 20:02 |

| kst | can I define different devices in xorg.conf for the same gfx card using different drivers? same for monitors? | 20:05 |
| kbrooks | Cyber_Stalker, recompile apache. open another terminal. DO NOT CLOSE THE TERMINAL IN WHICH YOU RECOMPILED APACHE. in that terminal, sudo apt-get remove apache2. | 20:05 |

| IntuitiveNipple | elephanthunter: cat /proc/asound/devices | grep capture | 20:23 |
| _jz | is anyone experiencing those weird Gutsy + radeon + compiz xorg freezes (with rest of the system still up) https://bugs.launchpad.net/compizsettings/+bug/108527 ? | 20:23 |
| graelb | pici "make program remove?" | 20:23 |
| cvance | karmickoala, what is the error? | 20:23 |
| _jz | is the problem located in compiz or in xorg, like some reporter seem to think ? | 20:23 |
| riotkittie | maybe i should tackle samba. :| | 20:23 |
| elephanthunter | awesome, thanks | 20:23 |
| _jz | is there a backport to gutsy of the xserver-1.4 ? | 20:23 |
| Pici | graelb: no, from the directory that you did `make install` in, do `make remove` or `make uninstall` (It depends on how the programmer wrote it) | 20:23 |
| graelb | oh | 20:24 |
| karmickoala | cvance: Unable to mount specified partition at boot... but if I look at those partitions under windows I see my linux partitions still. A 1 GB (swap) and a 23'ish GB LInux. | 20:24 |
| graelb | ok | 20:24 |
| riotkittie | checkinstall <3 | 20:24 |
| K3rl0u4rn | ey people, I noticed something weird with xubuntu 7.10 and would like someone to test and tell me if I am hallucinating or what | 20:24 |
| Pici | _jz: *to* gutsy? Gutsy was just released, theres nothing backported to it. | 20:24 |
| cvance | which partition will not mount? | 20:24 |
| cvance | and give me their filesystem types | 20:24 |
| K3rl0u4rn | please log out of your session and when back to GDM, try CTRL + ALT + SUPPR as to restart X | 20:24 |
| graelb | Pici: nothing... huh. ok. guess i'll figure out wha tit actually did first | 20:24 |
| cvance | you may need to enter the partitions into /etc/fstab manually | 20:24 |
| _jz | Pici well "backported" wasn't the correct word, sorry, "ported" would have been more appropriate :) | 20:24 |
| K3rl0u4rn | and tell me what happens | 20:24 |
| karmickoala | Cvance: As far as I know it's the main linux partition. Grub gives me the option of using recovery kernels but those won't boot up either. I can get into Windows fine though. | 20:24 |
| TuxForce | hi... my sound system not work... i have gnome of Gusty Gibbon version | 20:24 |
| kbrooks | _jz, you're confused | 20:24 |
| TuxForce | what is the problem ? | 20:24 |
| Pici | _jz: Then no. I personally expect to see it in 8.04, but we'll know after the developers summit. | 20:25 |
| kevin_121 | TuxForce: do you know if your soundcard is supported by alsa? | 20:25 |
| TuxForce | my gnome version is 2.20 and the system sound not work.. | 20:25 |
| TuxForce | all sound of computer work | 20:25 |
| _jz | kbrooks: some people at the end of that bug report seem to think it comes from xorg itself | 20:25 |
| arucard | thats cool | 20:25 |
| TuxForce | login and logaut | 20:25 |
| TuxForce | logout | 20:25 |
| riotkittie | TuxForce: is your volume muted? are your speakers plugged in? if you have onboard sound and a card, have you disabled tho onboard sound in BIOS? | 20:25 |
| TuxForce | but the other sound system not work | 20:25 |
| cvance | you will need to boot into a livecd and mount your primary linux partition within the livecd, then you can edit the fstab to reflect the proper options | 20:25 |
| riotkittie | oh wait. neevermind. | 20:26 |
| cvance | for example if your ubuntu partition is the first one on your primary disk: | 20:26 |

| cvance | as root: /mount /dev/sda1 <mountpoint> | 20:26 |
| kbrooks | _jz, just a second | 20:26 |
| TuxForce | riotkittie, all sound work now... mp3 .. film.. login sound ... but the others sound system not work.. | 20:26 |
| karmickoala | Cvance: Booting from the LiveCD is fine. Then I'll go into terminal and mount using sudo? Or how exactly? I've never done anything with FStabs. | 20:26 |
| Vlet | HorizonXP: don't ask to ask - just ask :) | 20:26 |
| riotkittie | ooh. maybe i should compile it. | 20:26 |

| kbrooks | _jz, read. | 20:27 |
| cvance | then change the options for your primary partition accordingly | 20:27 |

| kbrooks | _jz, my laptop doesnt have 3d | 20:27 |
| TuxForce | etc.. | 20:27 |
| _jz | sure | 20:27 |
| cvance | for example if you are using reiserfs, you need to chage the fs type to be reiserfs in the /etc/fstab | 20:27 |
| cron | IntuitiveNipple: What I was thinking, alas just wanted to make sure i didn't miss a simple wrapper anywhere ;) | 20:27 |
| cvance | or ext3 or whatever ubuntu's default fs type is | 20:27 |
| Vlet | HorizonXP: you're not asking us anything. you're telling us you're having problems. How are we supposed to be able to give you any sort of suggestion without you telling us what the error is or what packages are needed to complete the compile | 20:27 |

I am sitting at the "grub" prompt now - How do I proceed ? | 20:27 |
| karmickoala | I think it's ext3. | 20:28 |

| beta | Hi, I'm having a problem which I think is due to my update with Gutsy. I believe it has to do with XGL (I had experienced this same issue before upgrading while trying to use XGL). The issue is that sometimes things such as icons get disorted. In gedit also line numbers when I scroll down get disorted. I have a screenshot of the issue here http://tinyimg.us/i/bfi1193082315c.png, please note the icon for Deskbar ont he top right, and the line numbers on gedit. | 20:46 |

| asbani | Gannondorf, what do you need to know about mplayer? | 21:19 |
| DShepherd | johan, openoffice database maybe? application, office. | 21:19 |
| Gannondorf | asbani: I can't get it to play in full screen like ogle did | 21:19 |
| Trantor | Well, I surrender with FN keys, but I have another question.... I have an external disk (WD, 250 Gb) that doesn't stop spinning when I umount (does this word exist?) it. Only when I power off the machine, it stops... In Win, disk stops when I 'remove drive safely'. Any idea? | 21:19 |
| cypher | closey_: thats one hell of a problem :P | 21:19 |
| DShepherd | f0rgeIf`, man patch | 21:20 |

| BlackTech | I didn't get the liveCD | 21:33 |
| BlackTech | I just downloaded it | 21:33 |

| Bruno_ | codecaine ok but i do that after deleting the partiton that i dont want anymore right? | 21:40 |
| Fastn | does anyone know how i mount an networkdrive trough smbclient? | 21:40 |
| maccam94 | does the livecd support installing to an LVM volume now or is it still necessary to use the alternative cd? | 21:40 |
| Rudd-O | is there a way to prevent ubuntu from picking up on the DHCP dns server, and use a manually specified one? | 21:40 |
| don-o | JDSBlueDevl: and i thought i was the only one on such an old card! | 21:40 |
| geeknik | Rudd-O: Yes. | 21:40 |
| Trantor | _spi_: DId you try GNuChess? I don't know what strong are you, but it has acceptable ELO estimation | 21:40 |
| Erasmuz_2007 | i can make it work on 7.04 but then i tried compiz fusion with a script that turn off the fx | 21:40 |
| kbrooks | geeknik, never, wait until next release or when backports open up. | 21:40 |
| codecaine_ | pieisgood4589 has newer version of gnome and using pigin has more instant messengers then gaim | 21:40 |
| Trantor | _spi_: sorry, 'how strong' I meant | 21:41 |
| MaJoRa | seriously | 21:41 |
| codecaine_ | and more stuff in respirtory to download | 21:41 |
| MaJoRa | i could do with some help | 21:41 |
| riotkittie | pieisgood4589: for starters, it's name isnt feisty. and it's version isnt 7.04. that's different :D <thank you thank you, i'll be here all week. tip your waitstaff> | 21:41 |
| Erasmuz_2007 | then update to 7.10 and don't work either | 21:41 |
| kbrooks | geeknik, stability is important | 21:41 |
| MaJoRa | im not going tyo put up wioth this rebooting for long | 21:41 |
| don-o | geeknik: winehq has its own debian repository. works great for keeping up to date. | 21:41 |
| codecaine_ | bruno yea u can do that | 21:41 |
| MaJoRa | i lost all my data 3 times updating to gutsy | 21:41 |
| frank23 | geeknik: in general programs are not updated in ubuntu (except in backports) for wine you could add the wine repository for ubuntu | 21:41 |
| MaJoRa | and iom not gonig to have it be shit now | 21:41 |
| riotkittie | Erasmuz_2007: what. graphics. card. are. you. using ? | 21:41 |
| Bruno_ | codecaine ok thanks | 21:41 |
| Rudd-O | geeknik: how? | 21:41 |
| geeknik | frank23: Thanks. | 21:41 |
| Erasmuz_2007 | nvidia 6150 | 21:41 |
| geeknik | Rudd-O: Open up a private window. Too much scroll in here. | 21:41 |
| Rudd-O | (Y) | 21:42 |
| keanu | Erasmuz_2007, I have an nvidia geforce 6800 - what problem are you having? | 21:42 |
| colin__ | 1450 users nice :D | 21:42 |
| Erasmuz_2007 | nvidia 6150 (worked on 7.04) | 21:42 |
| riotkittie | oh. nvidia's i know nohting about >_> | 21:42 |
| Erasmuz_2007 | with beryl | 21:42 |
| JDSBlueDevl | don-o: yeah, it is an old card in a Dimension 4100 from 2000. I upgraded everything else (1 GHz PIII, 512 MB RAM), but the graphics card, no | 21:42 |
| keanu | ah, I haven't managed to get to beryl yet | 21:42 |
| keanu | =/ | 21:42 |
| closey_ | right can someone please spare me 2mins of there time please | 21:42 |
| atk | Hi. Has anyone managed to get sync4j/syncevolution working on gutsy? If so, how and is there a prepackaged version? | 21:42 |
| riotkittie | MaJoRa: lost all your data? three times? >_> | 21:42 |
| closey_ | been here 45 mins and havent had any help | 21:42 |
| MaJoRa | i upgraded from firesty | 21:42 |
| kbrooks | JDSBlueDevl, lol i have a dimesion 4100 | 21:42 |
| MaJoRa | it corrupted my hd | 21:42 |
| jburd | LOL. This is funny. Every time you minimize and restore a window memory percentage consumption by compiz.real goes up 1% | 21:43 |
| MaJoRa | so i installed on my backup drive... | 21:43 |
| kbrooks | !patient | closey_ | 21:43 |
| keanu | installing nvidia from the restricted drivers doesn't seem to install the nvidia kernel module...any way to install that? | 21:43 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about patient - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 21:43 |
| MaJoRa | it did the same | 21:43 |
| jburd | :-) | 21:43 |
| fabster | Hello I have 01:01.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation ISL3886 [Prism Javelin/Prism Xbow] (rev 01) - driver p54pci - ubuntu 7.10 - I can see my wireless network but can't connect to it | 21:43 |
| MaJoRa | so i installed again.. and it did it again | 21:43 |
| atk | closey_: what is your issue? | 21:43 |
| TheRepacker | there is a freeze/lockup problem with SMP kernels/nvidia-glx-new/ and nvidia 6XXX and 7XXXcards | 21:43 |
| JDSBlueDevl | kbrooks: do you also see memory leaks in your Dimension 4100? | 21:43 |
| * jburd tries crashing the other machine | 21:43 | |
| riotkittie | MaJoRa: you are a glutton for punishment, apparently :P | 21:43 |
| Trantor | jburd: so, do it 100 times to see what happens :) | 21:43 |
| keanu | TheRepacker, was that for me? | 21:43 |
| kbrooks | JDSBlueDevl, not as far as i can recall, but i havent used compiz on there. | 21:44 |
| stinger05 | i don't know if my question is silly, but does ubuntu get infected with viruses ? | 21:44 |
| jburd | Trantor: heh | 21:44 |
| JDSBlueDevl | oh. The leaks aren't coming from Compiz, though | 21:44 |
| Bruno_ | riotkittie when i delete the partition which has the current GRUB (using gparted) how will i boot into ubuntu instead of windows? | 21:44 |
| TheRepacker | keanu yes | 21:44 |
| stefg | MaJoRa, so how many attempts will it take to show to you: this isn't gonna work ? :-) | 21:44 |
| kbrooks | JDSBlueDevl, elaborate | 21:44 |
| IdleOne | stinger05: only if the user is very very reckless | 21:44 |
| jburd | JDSBlueDevl: Where are they coming from? | 21:44 |
| atk | stinger05: every computer can get infected. User actions has the most significanse | 21:44 |
| Trantor | stinger05: if someone develops one dedicated virus, maybe... Am I wrong? | 21:44 |
| keanu | TheRepacker, I'm using the default kernel that comes with Gutsy - is that kernel affected by it? | 21:44 |
| org | Hi, whenever i login there is a notification in my system tray about Restricted Drivers, it says that is not supported by my gutsy, What can I do. | 21:44 |
| riotkittie | Bruno_: rather than deleting that right now, why not boot into your other install and fix grub while you can? | 21:44 |
| === codecaine_ is now known as codecaine | ||
| stinger05 | hmmm... okay, but whats a good antivirus for ubuntu? free of course... | 21:45 |
| JDSBlueDevl | well, running any program for a while, like file-sharing programs, seems to do it in 36 hours | 21:45 |
| IdleOne | Trantor: not wrong but that doesnt mean you blindly download/accept files eitherither | 21:45 |
| TheRepacker | keanu is it the SMP kernel and do you have a multi-core processor | 21:45 |
| pieisgood4589 | hi | 21:45 |
| stefg | !antivirus | stinger05 | 21:45 |
| ubotu | stinger05: antivirus is something you don't really need on Linux, unless you serve windows clients. ClamAV and aegis are decent linux virusscanners. Also see !linuxvirus | 21:45 |
| Bruno_ | riotkittie it was ubuntu studio but apparently it only installed the kernel but nothng else, no x no nothing | 21:45 |
| JDSBlueDevl | if no programs open, then 72-96 hours | 21:45 |
| Trantor | IdleOne: of course | 21:45 |
| riotkittie | stinger05: you dont really need an antivirus. if you insist, there's a linux version of avg, and there's also clamav. | 21:45 |
| Bruno_ | riotkittie so i dont want it anymore | 21:45 |
| MaJoRa | and more to the point ,it keeps rebooting, pidgin is constantly not responding, the dual monitors scrolls, it wont display above 50hz, im missing half my keyboard keys (they just do nothing... basic keys like the pound sign, hash etc) , it seems slower, compiz wont work, and my keyboard and mouse (bluetooth) have to spend 10 mins being fiddled with to work on each bootup | 21:45 |
| MaJoRa | somebody help, lo | 21:45 |
| MaJoRa | l | 21:45 |
| jburd | JDSBlueDevl: Why would compiz.real mem consumption go up 1% every time a window is minimized and restored? | 21:45 |
| riotkittie | Bruno_: how bizarre. startx does nothing? | 21:46 |
| MaJoRa | im not going to go through all this and not get it working | 21:46 |
| MaJoRa | but i am struggling to see any benefit at all in upgrading | 21:46 |
| JDSBlueDevl | don't know | 21:46 |
| stinger05 | does avg antivirus for linux come with auto-protection ? | 21:46 |
| JDSBlueDevl | especially since I haven't tried Compiz Fusion yet | 21:46 |
| keanu | TheRepacker, /me just checked kernel version - yes, it's the SMP, and I have a dual core proc =/ | 21:46 |
| Trantor | I'm impressed with ubotu bot... | 21:46 |
| lee986321 | so how do we get themes? | 21:46 |
| riotkittie | MaJoRa: and this was another upgrade? | 21:46 |
| lee986321 | for ubuntu? | 21:46 |
| jburd | kbrooks: Can you check if you can reproduce this problem? | 21:46 |
| IdleOne | !eyecandy | lee986321 | 21:46 |
| ubotu | lee986321: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy | 21:46 |
| JDSBlueDevl | that's why I'm trying to see if there's a way to tweak my TNT2 M64 for it or if I should get a "newer" old card | 21:46 |
| Bruno_ | riotkittie nope, says i dont have xfonts, then i install xfonts but says i dont have window managers, terminal emulators etc etc, i dont really want to install all the packages manually. I could try to reinstall ubuntu studio and see if it works | 21:46 |
| DaaT | anyone having this problem? when booting gutsy, after choosing it from GRUB, I get a black screen for a few mns, with HDD activity, then the login screen finally shows up | 21:46 |
| DaaT | running on a laptop | 21:47 |
| TheRepacker | keanu then don't load nvidia-glx-new load only nvidia-glx | 21:47 |
| === org is now known as asbani | ||
| lee986321 | ah ty | 21:47 |
| Dekkharyn | ok, I'm impressed so far, but I want to know, if I try to install into an existing partition will Ubuntu format it first? It's a reiserfs partition I believe | 21:47 |
| keanu | TheRepacker, ok, thanks | 21:47 |
| stefg | MaJoRa, just feel l33t for being smart enough to hold a backup of your feisty install, and just forget about upgrading for a while. The gutsy kernel just doesn't work on your hardware it seems | 21:47 |
| ParanoyaM | hi | 21:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | !hi | 21:48 |
| cvance | ubuntu does not have to reformat, but there can and will be conflicts if a version of linux is installed in that existing reiserfs partition | 21:48 |
| ubotu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 21:48 |
| TheRepacker | keanu, you will have to modify xorg.conf manually to get everything to work | 21:48 |
| bandobras | Hey, guys! can anybody help me, please?! | 21:48 |
| Dekkharyn | cvance: nuts, that was the answer I was dreading, thanks. I'll have to reboot to SuSE and clear everything out so I can format it | 21:48 |
| ParanoyaM | my ubuntu doesn't loading | 21:48 |
| JDSBlueDevl | apparently, the graphics card problem is that the frequency is too low. Is there a way to overclock it? | 21:48 |
| riotkittie | Bruno_: if you boot into whatever it is that you want to keep, i think you should be able to open a term and sudo grub there to go through grub setup/correction. then just reboot to make sure its right | 21:48 |
| === ciosad is now known as chronic1 | ||
| cvance | sorry, but its better that you know now then finding out the hard way :) | 21:48 |
| MaJoRa | stefg: but i no longer have the backup because the final install whiped it.... so i HAVE to use gutsy or its a waist of my time | 21:48 |
| MaJoRa | lol | 21:48 |
| TheRepacker | but I have been very stable now for over a week | 21:48 |
| Dekkharyn | cvance: That's why I was asking :D | 21:48 |
| ParanoyaM | i get udevd-event[2584]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' adnormal exit | 21:49 |
| cvance | are you tryign to save your /home directory or something? | 21:49 |
| === Jannitax is now known as Jannita | ||
| ParanoyaM | i get udevd-event[2584]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' adnormal exit | 21:49 |
| ParanoyaM | i get udevd-event[2584]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' adnormal exit | 21:49 |
| stefg | MaJoRa, save your personal data and do a feisty reinstall.... | 21:49 |
| ParanoyaM | i get udevd-event[2584]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' adnormal exit | 21:49 |
| ParanoyaM | BoomSie, | 21:49 |
| MaJoRa | can anyone here fix any of these issues at all? if i could get my dual monitors working i would be happy to say the least | 21:49 |
| ParanoyaM | ku | 21:49 |
| MaJoRa | damn | 21:49 |
| Bruno_ | riotkittie i have windows and linux in diferent HDs so if i select from BIOS to boot from the linux HD i should be able to get into linux right?, or does in need GRUB to boot? | 21:49 |
| IndyGunFreak | MaJoRa: what type of video card do you need dual screens with? | 21:49 |
| Dekkharyn | cvance: yes, more or less, there's about 60gb of files. and for some reason ubuntu won't detect my usb hdd. Also, it won't let me delete stuff from the liveCD - but I imagine that is intentional | 21:50 |
| cvance | you would need grub bruno_ | 21:50 |
| MaJoRa | im using a geforce 7300 | 21:50 |
| ParanoyaM | MaJoRa, you don't happy? pray to your OS, it is launching | 21:50 |
| zhaz | Anyone know a good usb soundcard that works? | 21:50 |
| riotkittie | Bruno_: if not grub, lilo. but you definately need a bootloader. | 21:50 |
| closey_ | when installing compiz throught the synaptic what compiz do you select to install | 21:50 |
| TheRepacker | keanu once you have it loaded then check out the compiz-fusion site to see how to edit your xorg.conf | 21:50 |
| cvance | you COULD put it under another temporary directory | 21:50 |
| MaJoRa | im using them because i need to use them, i remote acess alot of pcs etc and therefore need the second screen | 21:50 |
| ParanoyaM | i get udevd-event[2584]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' adnormal exit | 21:50 |
| ParanoyaM | i get udevd-event[2584]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' adnormal exit | 21:50 |
| ParanoyaM | i get udevd-event[2584]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' adnormal exit | 21:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | MaJoRa: should be pretty easy... was for me anyways... | 21:50 |
| cvance | and you can mount your USB HDD manually if you want to | 21:50 |
| MaJoRa | its easy | 21:50 |
| ParanoyaM | does anybody know what to do? | 21:50 |
| Fastn | does anyone know how i mount an networkdrive trough smbclient? | 21:50 |
| jburd | So can anybody reproduce this problem on their machine? 1. Monitor memory consumption for the process named compiz.real. 2. Turn compiz on. 3. Minimize and restore any window. 4. Watch if memory consumption goes up 1%. | 21:50 |
| cvance | mount <device node> <mountpoint> | 21:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | !patience | ParanoyaM | 21:50 |
| Dekkharyn | cvance; How do I mount my usb hdd manually? | 21:50 |
| ubotu | ParanoyaM: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped. Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 21:50 |
| MaJoRa | if i max out my resolution, which unfortunately means a 52hz refresh rates | 21:50 |
| frank23 | MaJoRa: there is a known problem with the latest nvidia drivers in gutsy and geforce 7300 cards. | 21:50 |
| MaJoRa | which hurts | 21:50 |
| cvance | open a terminal | 21:50 |
| Dekkharyn | aha, how do I find the device node? :D | 21:50 |
| cvance | sudo su | 21:51 |
| MaJoRa | damn | 21:51 |
| MaJoRa | ok | 21:51 |
| ParanoyaM | pardon | 21:51 |
| MaJoRa | brb | 21:51 |
| cvance | unplug the hdd and wait for amoment | 21:51 |
| Bruno_ | riotkittie cvance: and how do i check if i still have GRUB in this HD? | 21:51 |
| ParanoyaM | IndyGunFreak, pardon | 21:51 |
| cvance | then plug it back in | 21:51 |
| cvance | wait for about 10 seconds | 21:51 |
| jordan | So does XDMCP not work in gusty or something? | 21:51 |
| DShepherd | cvance, sudo -i. dont recommend sudo su here | 21:51 |
| cvance | in the terminal type dmesg | 21:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | ParanoyaM: i could care less, it just gets annoying when you type the same thing over and over. | 21:51 |
| cvance | sure | 21:51 |
| TheRepacker | frank23 it is not just gusty, it is all SMP kernels | 21:51 |
| ParanoyaM | i believe | 21:51 |
| cvance | then run sudo only so you wont botch anything badly | 21:51 |
| njs12345 | hmm | 21:51 |
| jordan | And since when is it gutsy? I thought it was gusty? | 21:51 |
| riotkittie | jburd: i've never bothered monitoring memory but i have noticed the insane performance issues when minimizing/whatever. i chalked it up to having a crummy gfx card :P and then tweaked animations in ccsm. | 21:51 |
| lee986321 | it appears that they are having issues lol | 21:52 |
| ParanoyaM | IndyGunFreak, but more annoying is that i can't work on my pc because ubuntu is not loading :( | 21:52 |
| frank23 | TheRepacker: ok. | 21:52 |
| njs12345 | does anyone know if there's a way to install mythbuntu without having to format a partition? | 21:52 |
| riotkittie | !gusty | 21:52 |
| ubotu | It is spelt !guTSy :) | 21:52 |
| cvance | make note of the output of dmesg, that will tell you waht device node your usb hdd is | 21:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | ParanoyaM: so repeating yourself over and over and flooding the channel, fixes that? | 21:52 |
| riotkittie | the bot knows all. | 21:52 |
| LiMaO | jordan: most people can't read properly nowadays | 21:52 |
| ParanoyaM | i get udevd-event[2584]: run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' adnormal exit | 21:52 |
| jburd | riotkittie: Well, an nvidia 6000 series graphics card is pretty much ok :-) | 21:52 |
| cvance | you will need to mount the drive with the mount command | 21:52 |
| TheRepacker | frank23 and all 7XXX cards | 21:52 |
| closey_ | i think there should be a number system in here cause theres people coming in now that are getting help before people thats been waitin ages | 21:52 |
| IndyGunFreak | ParanoyaM: yes i know, you typed it like 100x in 5min | 21:52 |
| riotkittie | jordan: it's been gutsy since day 1 :P | 21:52 |
| njs12345 | i have too many recordings to be comfortably able to back them up | 21:52 |
| ParanoyaM | IndyGunFreak, no, that i am asking sorry | 21:52 |
| lee986321 | The server at www.kde-look.org is taking too long to respond. | 21:52 |
| cvance | sudo mount /dev/sdb1 <mountpoint> | 21:52 |
| ParanoyaM | ok | 21:52 |
| martinaware | you just have to install myth on ubunru or use gparted to resize partition | 21:52 |
| LiMaO | jordan: you probably thought that it was fiesty, right? while it is F E I S T Y | 21:52 |
| ParanoyaM | because anybody see me :) | 21:53 |
| cvance | ./dev/sdb1 is an example of location, dmesg tells you that location | 21:53 |
| jordan | LiMaO: Thanks, I blame blurry CRTs | 21:53 |

| cvance | for example it could be /dev/sdb or /dev/sdc | 21:53 |
| riotkittie | closey_: number system? uhm. no. people are going to get help in the order that someone can help them, regardless of when they came in | 21:53 |
| cvance | depending on how many hard drives you ahve in your computer | 21:53 |
| frank23 | TheRepacker: oh I thought there was something specifically with 7300 (random freezes) I have a 5500 so I don't really keep ttrack | 21:53 |
| JDSBlueDevl | yeah, what about that whole "i before e except after c" thing | 21:53 |

| closey_ | riotkittie eh no because 3 people have started to help me but the just stopped | 21:54 |
| njs12345 | frojnd: you can download the package and copy the file across | 21:54 |
| Gigi | it works terrible... | 21:54 |
| TheRepacker | frank23 I know it is a major problem, basically SMP kernels/nvidia 6XXX and 7XXX cards and the nvidia-glx-new driver | 21:54 |
| riotkittie | frojnd: if you download it on a computer that does have an internet connection and then move it with a flash drive or whatever, if its a .deb.... sudo dpkg -i pathtopackage | 21:54 |
| Gigi | crushed again... | 21:54 |
| frank23 | IndyGunFreak: I heard it was random freezes | 21:54 |
| Gigi | jesus... what the hell hapened with oO | 21:54 |
| bandobras | does anybody here has some knowledge about printers? | 21:54 |

| JonaTh | Something wrong with apt-get update :( | 21:55 |
| Dekkharyn | can't say I know it offhand, is there a way to probe for that? | 21:55 |
| frojnd | riotkittie, ok, but what if this package needs another package.. | 21:55 |
| JonaTh | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41745/ | 21:55 |
| cvance | is this shared with a windows machine | 21:55 |
| cvance | ? | 21:55 |
| cvance | do you know the filesystem type? | 21:55 |
| Dekkharyn | nope. | 21:55 |
| cvance | that would help | 21:55 |
| cvance | okay | 21:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | frank23: hmm, no prob with me.. but maybe i'm not using the latest, i just enabled restricted driver, then installed nvidia-settings, and configured, no fuss no problem | 21:55 |
| cvance | this might help you out | 21:55 |
| cvance | what was the device node? | 21:55 |

| JDSBlueDevl | ok, I think I'm convinced for the reason for the memory leaks on my computer | 21:56 |
| TheRepacker | if you have a nvidia 6XXX or 7XXX card the nvidia-glx is the safest driver | 21:56 |
| IndyGunFreak | frank23: what do you mean go back to nv? | 21:56 |
| jburd | I'd like the default compiz removed for a test. | 21:56 |
| cvance | try with /dev/sdb | 21:56 |
| JDSBlueDevl | it's the old graphics card doing it | 21:56 |
| org | do i need to install nvidia-glx-dev so my system install my vga driver? | 21:56 |
| JDSBlueDevl | is that possible? | 21:56 |
| riotkittie | Bruno_: i'd go through GRUB setup again, just to be SURE. open a term, type 'sudo grub' | 21:56 |
| cvance | replace /dev/sda in your mount with /dev/sdb1 | 21:56 |

| Bruno_ | riotkittie did that and i got a grub> promt | 21:57 |
| cvance | if the device was in fact /dev/sda, you would need to specify the partition with a number afterwards | 21:57 |
| cvance | for example sudo mount /dev/sda1 <mountpoint> | 21:57 |
| Dekkharyn | I added a 1 afterwards | 21:57 |

| computerex | that was interesting... | 21:58 |
| jburd | org: It's a non-free driver so it will not be supported. What's the problem with that? | 21:58 |
| cvance | you could try sudo mount /dev/sda1 <mountpoint> -t vfat | 21:58 |

| tont | FluxD: yes .. kubuntu gutsy | 21:58 |

| Dekkharyn | once they are I'll be back on Ubuntu for sure | 21:59 |
| cvance | you could try sudo mount /dev/sda1 <mountpoint> -t ext3 or reiserfs | 21:59 |

| Chris5801 | clicking on the 'Safely Remove Hardware' icon in the Windows | 21:59 |
| Chris5801 | taskbar then shutdown Windows cleanly. | 21:59 |
| jburd | computerex: Lies. :P | 21:59 |
| Chris5801 | Choice 2: If you don't have Windows then you can use the 'force' option for | 21:59 |
| Chris5801 | your own responsibility. For example type on the command line: | 21:59 |
| Chris5801 | mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda3 / -o force | 21:59 |
| riotkittie | Bruno_: ok, which one corresponds to the install you want to keep. 0,1 is first hard drive, second partition. 1,0 is second drive, first partition. | 21:59 |
| Chris5801 | Or add the option to the relevant row in the /etc/fstab file: | 21:59 |
| computerex | But I just installed KDE on Gusty, and I would like to have Compiz Fusion on it | 21:59 |

| troopa | I've read the forums and such, and it seems like everything will be A-Okay, but has anyone had any personal experience with the ATI drivers in the restricted pakcage and the X1950? I have not installed yet - but I just wanted some feedback. According to the forums it should be fine with the current ATI drivers with full 3D acceleration. | 22:09 |
| cvance | sometimes a physical switch, sometimes a fn-f<x> key combination | 22:09 |
| cube | troopa go for it geesh | 22:09 |
| stefg | yasper, then indeed the build needs the full kernel source... so you have to sudo apt-get install linux-source, then unpack the archive in /usr/src and adjust the symlink 'linux' to point on the unpacked kernel source | 22:09 |

| riotkittie | frojnd: i just looked through the various repos. it's in /universe | 22:12 |
| cvance | you want to delete the partition in which grub resides? | 22:12 |
| stefg | Karti, probably the entry in /etc/fstab for your cdroms are wrong. you might have /dev/hdc instead of /dev/sr0 , or vice versa | 22:12 |

| grimhen | hi | 22:14 |
| cvance | you would need to reinstall grub into the MBR from your working linux installation or else you cannot boot | 22:14 |
| nickrud | jimmacdonald: you not using networkmanager? | 22:14 |

| gore_ | anyone have similar issues | 22:14 |
| grimhen | graelb: yes i use hamachi | 22:14 |
| stefg | Karti, media players tend to have their own ideas of the DVD-devices... or you might have switched the region code once too often | 22:14 |
| Bruno_ | cvance: how do i do this? | 22:15 |
| kousotu | gore_: 7 buttons? I've never heard of such a mouse lol | 22:15 |
| eegore | is there a setting to change the video modes in the other terminals | 22:15 |
| cvance | for example if you have regular ubuntu that you want to keep in /dev/sda1 and defunct ubuntu studio in /dev/sda2 you would need to install grub from your /dev/sda1 partition into the MBR | 22:15 |
| Karti | stefg: Thanks for the ideas but I don't chop and change them, its always UK | 22:15 |

| Bruno_ | cvance: 2 one whith windows and the failed ubuntu studio and anotherone with working linux | 22:16 |
| nickrud | jimmacdonald: if you're not using networkmanager , just apt-get remove nm-applet | 22:16 |
| jimmacdonald | Nickrud: well it doesn't give the option to view the network configuration (it's greyed out) so the nm-applet is pretty much useless to me unless it's doing something in the background whereas network monitor shows me status. | 22:16 |

| martman | is it possible to install only gnome-core instead of the entire ubuntu-desktopvpackage? (for ubuntu server)? | 22:25 |
| chpe | nickrud: I will, thanks | 22:25 |
| nrp | LifeNomad, ah, well, then its an emerald problem :p | 22:25 |
| grimhen | dewdude: yes, you can run this card on ubuntu 7.04 | 22:25 |
| logyati | im trying to execute a command everytime i login, but i cant find .bash_profile | 22:25 |
| ice109 | pelo i can launch the panel but the problem is when i hit the exit launcher its now a quit panel launcher and not a shutdown launcher | 22:25 |
| cvance | alright bruno, i am sorry but i cannot help you | 22:25 |
| logyati | is this the correct file? | 22:26 |
| cvance | there is a problem mapping your hard drives in grub | 22:26 |
| nickrud | logyati: ~/.bash_profile | 22:26 |
| _spi_ | someone use tilda terminal??? | 22:26 |
| nickrud | logyati: where ~ is your home file | 22:26 |
| Pelo | ice109, I seem to remember that in xubuntu there is a special dialog for panels, you probably just need to set them in that so they start again at startup | 22:26 |
| Bruno_ | cvance: ok, thanks though | 22:26 |
| grimhen | dewdude: modprobe ipw2100 can help :) | 22:26 |
| logyati | nickrud, doesnt work | 22:26 |
| cvance | sure | 22:26 |
| cvance | good luck from someone else | 22:26 |
| jburd | jeez apt-cacher is a pain in the ass. | 22:26 |
| Bruno_ | cvance: thanks | 22:26 |
| cvance | i use gentoo personally, so i have a lot of gentoo quirks in the way i do things | 22:26 |
| logyati | nickrud, should it have an #!/bin/bash in the first line? | 22:26 |
| nickrud | logyati: ls ~/.bash_profile, it's in every home folder | 22:26 |
| cvance | that was the gentoo way, and i have helped people before with suse and mandriva | 22:27 |
| dewdude_ | grimhen: from which liveCD? | 22:27 |
| Bruno_ | cvance im fairly new to linux and ubuntu | 22:27 |
| logyati | nickrud, but not in mine | 22:27 |
| dewdude_ | cuz i've got Fiesty, which is old. | 22:27 |
| dewdude_ | and 7.04 | 22:27 |
| cvance | lol, yea, you have a kinda complicated problem but i can explain to you the procedure if you want | 22:27 |
| Bruno_ | cvance: ok | 22:27 |
| Pelo | ice109, you could also try to put a laucher for the pannels in ~/.config/autostart | 22:27 |
| nickrud | logyati: very strange, you must have removed it somehow. And no, no #! /bin/bash, it's read, not executed | 22:27 |
| cvance | the MBR is the first sector of the first hard drive | 22:27 |
| dewdude_ | oh, ok | 22:27 |
| _spi_ | Does someone know if tilda terminal fix for gutsy has been released ?? | 22:27 |
| dewdude_ | i saw backscroll | 22:27 |
| dewdude_ | off to burn another disc | 22:27 |
| ice109 | pelo i put the panel in autostart but i don't think it'll allow me to shutdown from it anyway | 22:27 |
| yasper | stefg - I am unpacking and just loads of cannot open: no such file or directory | 22:28 |
| chpe | Shortcut for taking a screenshot? Saving it to the clipboard? | 22:28 |
| cvance | you would need to write all of the data into your /dev/hda | 22:28 |
| * nickrud laughs, 6 months is "old" | 22:28 | |
| cvance | into the MBR which would reference your second hard drive /dev/hdb | 22:28 |
| Ljorring | I alrdy have an XP installation. I am Installing Ubuntu at the moment, and I want a Dual boot. But in step '7 out of 7' - is 'Install Boot Loader' the GRUB installer? And that is necessary? | 22:28 |
| cvance | so the MBR of /dev/hda would have pointers to /dev/hdb | 22:28 |
| deaddreamer_ | hi everyone | 22:28 |
| Serge | hello | 22:28 |
| Serge | how to hide trash from desktop? | 22:28 |
| nickrud | chpe: prtsc | 22:28 |
| Pelo | ice109, that,s the best I can do for you , maybe you can find an answer in the forum or in a xfce channel | 22:28 |
| dansku | why firefox doesnt update to 2.0.0.8? | 22:28 |
| Tamale | Ljorring: The boot loader is neccessary to boot linux and windows. | 22:28 |
| nickrud | chpe: the key, that is | 22:28 |
| cvance | and then grub would run properly because when your system boots, it look in the MBR to find code to execute, and that exists in /dev/hda | 22:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | !trash | 22:28 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about trash - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:28 |
| Box|UK | if i have ahhh was gi=onna ask i have xp on one hdd and ubuntu on another hardrive the boot sequence is controlled by grub which i find straight forward... but what diffrence does it make if i load VM ware | 22:29 |
| [chr0n0s] | hi, i want the command "syndaemon -t 2 -d" to run at system startup, which file should i put it in ?/ | 22:29 |

| cvance | !grub | 22:29 |
| chpe | nickrud: didnt seem to work with gimp :/ | 22:29 |

| IndyGunFreak | Serge: its in gconf-editor | 22:29 |
| deaddreamer_ | azureus crashes on gutsy, any solution or alternative bt client??? | 22:29 |
| antiroach | i have a weird issue with deleting stuff from the trash. heres the scenario: assume the trash is empty and i "move to trash" some files from drive A, the files go into the trash, but i cant right click on the trash and empty it. but if i 'move to trash' some files from drive B it works as expected. any ideas ? | 22:29 |
| ubotu | grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 22:29 |
| Neatchee | Does anyone know if tickless is on track for x64 in 2.6.23 kernel? And if so, when can we expect 2.6.23? | 22:29 |
| nickrud | chpe: gimp? installing? If you're using ubuntu, it's already installed | 22:29 |
| cvance | i can give you the link to the gentoo page about grub if you would like | 22:29 |
| Pelo | deaddreamer_, deluge or utorrent on wine | 22:29 |
| antiroach | deaddreamer get wine and install utorrent | 22:29 |
| Pici | Neatchee: Don't expect .23 in Gutsy | 22:29 |
| Bruno_ | cvance: yes please | 22:29 |
| deaddreamer_ | ok thx :D | 22:29 |
| LjL-Temp | !trashicon | Serge, IndyGunFreak | 22:29 |
| grimhen | dewdude: i use ubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn and it works after boot | 22:29 |
| ubotu | Serge, IndyGunFreak: Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop? Go to /apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor (Gnome) or go to http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/tipsntrix.html#showtrash (KDE) | 22:29 |
| chpe | nickrud: nonono, when I want to paste a clipboarded screenshot into GIMP, it says the clipboard is empty | 22:29 |
| mobodo | I have a daemon that I wrote in perl, I tried to have it started by init.d, but it does not record the pid and keep track of it - how do I do that? (I used the skeleton init.d sample) | 22:29 |
| nrp | deaddreamer, deluge is pretty much a utorrent clone in terms of interface and features. its nice | 22:29 |
| Ljorring | Tamale, so Ubuntu will take care automaticly of my windows partition and include it? | 22:29 |

| Serge | thanks | 22:30 |
| cvance | back up your data ;) | 22:30 |
| cvance | just in case | 22:30 |
| Bruno_ | cvance: yeah i will | 22:30 |
| Pici | Neatchee: Because there won't be a kernel change in the middle of a release. | 22:30 |

| cvance | good luck bruno_ | 22:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | cvance: that should be common sense, but you'd be amazed | 22:30 |
| nickrud | chpe: ah, that doesn't put it in the clipboard, it allows you to save it. Then you can add it to gimp as a layer | 22:30 |

| Reng | hey guys i dont want my external hdd to reserve space % for recovery. is this the correct command to use "sudo tune2fs -m 0"?? | 22:30 |
| Box|UK | deadchip, i just installed linux for first time i like the freedom and non proprietory | 22:30 |
| cvance | i <3 rsync :) | 22:31 |
| nickrud | chpe: first, did you get a dialog window allowing you to save the screenshot? | 22:31 |
| yasper | stefg - please have a look at this - what is going on?! http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/41754/ | 22:31 |
| blahblahx | whats the purpose of /etc/skel/? | 22:31 |
| Lardarse | Does anyone here have any experience with setting up ubuntu to dual boot? | 22:31 |
| nickrud | blahblahx: to create the home folder for a new user | 22:31 |
| LjL-Temp | Reng: it's a bad idea, Linux can behave *VERY* badly on out-of-diskspace conditions | 22:31 |
| Box|UK | Lardarse, on 2hds or on one? | 22:31 |
| Szeraax | blahblahx: it is a default | 22:31 |
| blahblahx | cool | 22:31 |
| chpe | nickrud: I didnt before, but now I did, brilliant - I'll know how to add it as a layer :) | 22:31 |
| Pelo | Lardarse, most of us do , how many hdd are we talking about here ? | 22:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | Lardarse: ?.. i imagine most of us do. | 22:31 |
| medallied | hello all. i've accidentally changed sudoers permissions amongst other files on my server, so i obviously booted into single user mode. However, the system won't authenticate me! Any clues for this? | 22:31 |
| Szeraax | blahblahx: yeah, what he said... | 22:31 |
| benzs_s | my external HDD is mounting as /media/hdd2_ instead of /media/hdd2 how do i change its name? | 22:31 |
| Ljorring | Will the Option 'Install Boot Loader' in my Ubuntu installation take care of my Windows XP partition automaticly? | 22:32 |
| stefg | yasper, are you running out of memory or /tmp space ? | 22:32 |
| Lardarse | Box|UK: 1 hard drive that is slightly over half full (it's 300GB, though) | 22:32 |
| blahblahx | are cache and history kept in the ../mozilla/firefox/ folder? | 22:32 |
| cvance | medallied, you can use a livecd and chroot into your current install, then use passwd | 22:32 |
| yasper | stefg - it's all fresh install so I should have loads of space | 22:32 |
| ubuntu__ | Hi | 22:32 |
| [chr0n0s] | Ljorring, if it shows your windows in it;s list, then it will | 22:32 |
| medallied | i did | 22:32 |
| cvance | for example: | 22:32 |
| IndyGunFreak | Lardarse: ok, so give Ubuntu about at least 20-30gigs, and have at it. | 22:32 |
| lgc__ | blahblahx, Halloween! | 22:32 |
| Lardarse | IndyGunFreak: my previous ubuntu installs ahve been on another computer, which only single booted | 22:32 |
| Pelo | Lardarse, the installer will let you resize the partition, and install on the empty space and it will also install a boot menu | 22:32 |
| Reng | <LjL-Temp>im just used that external hdd to store media and other files, not OS or programs | 22:32 |
| Bruno_ | jonjon09: did you downgrade? | 22:32 |
| Szeraax | Ljorring: it should | 22:32 |
| blahblahx | wtf? | 22:32 |
| ubuntu__ | I'm right now doing the partitions. How many partition are recommended to be done? and is swap a primary or logical partition I'm giving 500mb to swap. | 22:32 |
| === Chabrias is now known as Phovion | ||
| Lardarse | is it reliable? | 22:32 |
| Box|UK | Lardarse, ubuntu willl be able to handle that neatly think itll pick up the windows and auto partion for linux | 22:32 |
| Pelo | Lardarse, yes | 22:33 |
| === Phovion is now known as Phocion | ||
| medallied | i change the permissions, but they get wiped back to the original non-suitable perms | 22:33 |
| Lardarse | ok | 22:33 |
| Szeraax | Lardarse: yes | 22:33 |
| cvance | medallied, you chrooted from a livecd and you cannot login after you changed the password | 22:33 |
| cvance | ? | 22:33 |
| Ljorring | well, it registered my 'Windows settings' under the 'Migration' tab. That is proof enough? | 22:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | Box|UK: Lardarse it should pick up your XP install, at least it always does mine. | 22:33 |
| medallied | cvance, if possible go prive | 22:33 |
| LjL-Temp | Reng: in that case, your command should work, but i never tried it | 22:33 |
| Pelo | later folks | 22:33 |
| ubuntu__ | can somebody help me please in partitioning. | 22:33 |
| nickrud | ubuntu__: it can be either; and 10gb for / (the root directory) and as much as you can spare for /home | 22:33 |
| atk | ubuntu__: I suggest that you put at least / and /home on separate partitions | 22:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | ubuntu__: whats the problem? | 22:33 |
| Lardarse | i already noticed that it can access my ntfs partition | 22:33 |
| [chr0n0s] | ubuntu__, every partition in linux can be logical, so swap can be logical, but make a /home primary | 22:33 |
| cvance | medallied done | 22:33 |
| LjL-Temp | ubuntu__: any partition can be primary or logical. logical partitions are only useful if you need to have more than 4 partitions in total. | 22:33 |
| paolob | Hi guys! I have just updated to gutsy, but at the reboot I get an error with raid and the boot doesn't get finished. The error, repeated indefinitely, is: "[....] device-mapper: table: 254-2: linear: dm linear: Device lookup failure" Any hjnt? | 22:33 |

| richie_ | i have no sound, idk how to install my sound drivers, i have them DL'd tho creative x-fi | 22:34 |
| LjL-Temp | medallied: you can pass "init=/bin/sh" to the kernel, instead of using recovery mode, to just be brought into a root shell without authentication | 22:34 |
| * IndyGunFreak has never put home on its own partition. | 22:34 | |
| ubuntu__ | [chr0n0s]: and is the "/" a logical or primary? I'm doing /home primary too | 22:34 |
| Sir_Sid | how do you check what video driver you are using? | 22:34 |
| Lardarse | one last question: is is possible to use the live CD to burn a .iso to disk? | 22:34 |
| Bruno_ | sudo update-grub | 22:34 |
| atk | ubuntu__: read LjL-Temp's comment | 22:34 |
| LjL-Temp | IndyGunFreak: *very* useful when re-installing. | 22:34 |
| SmileyChris | so in ubuntu, where's the normal place to install (i.e. copy) an app you download to? | 22:34 |
| Szeraax | ubuntu__: / is primary, unless you have a seperate /boot | 22:34 |
| enyc | IndyGunFreak: Ive got /boot / /home(raid1) /home/enyc/store at w0rk ... hrrm | 22:34 |
| nickrud | ubuntu__: my rule of thumb is 2x memory up to 1gb, and 2gb for any more | 22:34 |
| Box|UK | Phocion, go to synaptic scroll to compiz - fusion and youll see loads of plugins | 22:34 |
| Seal | How can you run Steam-based games using Wine off of another partition to avoid reinstalling them on you're ext2 partition? | 22:34 |

| IndyGunFreak | enyc: impressive! | 22:35 |
| ubuntu__ | [chr0n0s]: and are both "/" and "/home" an ext3 ? | 22:35 |
| nickrud | IndyGunFreak: if your root partition gets corrupted, at least home is safe. And can be used with other linux installs | 22:35 |
| atk | IndyGunFreak: whatever suits you. Some people prefer to keep the files without restoring from backups, some people like to do extra work. | 22:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | enyc: but how did you skip edgy?...lol | 22:35 |
| Szeraax | ubuntu__: if you want them to be, yes | 22:36 |

| enyc | IndyGunFreak: oops ;-) | 22:36 |

| ubuntu__ | cool? | 22:39 |
| ubuntu__ | :) | 22:39 |
| LjL-Temp | ubuntu__: why do you need / to be logical? | 22:39 |

| enyc | MarkusT: look for bugs... ? Sometimes they patch the bug... not change version | 22:39 |
| atk | ubuntu__: If you have over 100gig harddrive then maybe 15gig wouldn't hurt | 22:39 |
| JackRonan | how do i configure madwifi? i am so lost. | 22:40 |
| enyc | foug: in 18 months from 2007/04 -- i.e. 2008/10 | 22:40 |
| foug | enyc: thanks | 22:40 |
| JackRonan | i think that's what's doing this, i have the ath_pci driver loaded instead of the madwifi driver | 22:40 |

| computerex | Guys, I have Compiz working in KDE. It seems the KDE in the repos doesn't come with Compiz. This should do it: sudo apt-get install compiz-kde compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compizconfig-settings-manager | 22:40 |
| foug | how can i prevent Ubuntu from asking me my password all the time? | 22:40 |
| Szeraax | foug: use a password manager (kwallet for KDE) | 22:41 |
| MarkusT | enyc: There has been no update since mozilla relased 2.0.0.8. It's still 2.0.0.6+2nobinonly-0ubuntu1 | 22:41 |
| enyc | foug: all releases are 18 months... Dapper6.06 and Hardy8.04 have/will_have 3yr-desktop 5yr-server support | 22:41 |
| atk | ubuntu__: for reference, I'm using 7.8gig for / combined and I have relatively lot installed | 22:41 |
| LjL-Temp | foug: it only asks for your password when doing administrative stuff, actually. which should be rarely. | 22:41 |
| qwerkus | JackRonan: ath_pci is the KERNEL module for your driver | 22:41 |
| nickrud | beta: the only way I know is to uninstall it; ctl-alt-f1, log in, and sudo aptitude remove xserver-xgl | 22:41 |
| enyc | MarkusT: I dont know... go file a bug report if you cant find one! | 22:41 |
| enyc | MarkusT: I think there is #ubuntu-bugs channel.... | 22:41 |
| beta | Is there a way to enable a restricted module from the console? I can't boot to gnome and need to enable my drivers. Vesa won't work because of Xgl (I think). | 22:41 |

| puppetteer | is there a way do display diffrent backgrounds on each of the cube faces? | 22:42 |
| foug | enyc: I'm wanting to downgrade to 7.04 | 22:42 |
| nickrud | Box|UK: firestarter creates a script that gets called an sets up the firewall rules each time the net goes up; no gui needed | 22:42 |

| Tamale | Hegemon: No. | 22:43 |
| enyc | foug: you are best to test system with livecd for new release... and you should always be in the position you can re-install if its necessary | 22:43 |
| Hegemon | You could do it with Beryl, though, couldn't you? | 22:43 |
| enyc | foug: if you have lots of extra packages / other-repositories... you can have problems with upgrades.... or you can just be unlucky | 22:43 |

| enyc | foug: I would get to console or terminal and see if it needs "dist-upgrade" going... | 22:44 |
| nickrud | Box|UK: yes; you can see the rules in effect by sudo iptables -L ; and firestarter rules are started with /etc/init.d/firestarter | 22:44 |
| enyc | ScytheBlade1: erm.... /var/cache/apt I think... "sudo apt-get clean" cleans the package cache | 22:44 |
| Szeraax | beta try asking other channels too. Ubuntu is based on debian. go ask #debian or #linux too | 22:44 |

| ubotu | pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info. To install Pidgin please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallPidgin2.0 | 22:49 |
| nickrud | crowley1027: pidgin should be installed | 22:49 |
| enyc | crowley1027: I thought you just install the 'pidgin' package in ubuntu... its easy to install "kopete" too whcih sometimes works better for me | 22:49 |
| IndyGunFreak | crowley1027: if you want the 2.2 version, w/o the security bug, you'll neeed to compile it from source. | 22:49 |
| jordan | crowley1027 : add/remove programs | 22:49 |
| Dekkard | well thats great box.. and im happy for your plugins.. but firefox dies everytime i try to fill in a form.. and it wont let me turn spellcheck off.. which is the prollem | 22:49 |

| LjL-Temp | Heman: is the hard drive making noises? if not, then perhaps it's got stuck ;) | 22:50 |
| Masterslave | also check getdeb.net for pidgin in deb package | 22:50 |
| jordan | crowley1027 : ubuntu 7.10 (gutsy) has it | 22:50 |
| Box|UK | Dekkard, have no idea what your prob is | 22:50 |
| Heman | ljl: I have a cd running aswell 2 secs | 22:50 |

| Neatchee | Crowley: I have a feisty repository setup for Pidgin | 22:51 |
| Neatchee | You can use it if you want | 22:51 |
| jordan | crowley1027 : upgrade to gusty? | 22:51 |
| cyboreal | Metal03, can you start gdm? | 22:51 |
| nickrud | crowley1027: that tar.gz should go into your recycle bin, you don't want to get into compiling | 22:51 |
| jordan | damnit, gutsy | 22:51 |
| Neatchee | Unlike getdeb, my repository includes ALL known plugins for pidgin | 22:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | Masterslave: crowley1027 the version on getdeb.net has a fairly serious security flaw relating to mSN, i fyou use MSN, don't use it. | 22:51 |

| LjL-Temp | Heman: let me see the full ps aux output (what you pasted got cut), type « ps aux | cat » and pastebin that | 22:59 |
| Heman | LjL-Temp: However the bar looks like its still loading... | 22:59 |
| LifeNomad | robetj_: Its just there so you know where the text will be | 22:59 |
| LifeNomad | janky1: Ubuntu Restricted Extras | 23:00 |
| LjL-Temp | jimmygoon: ehm, what's the bug? | 23:00 |
| BBHoss | its not working for me, i cant see videos\ | 23:00 |
| janky1 | life: through mozilla? | 23:00 |
| kishan | ubuntu updates are fast today i got may updates | 23:00 |
| jimmygoon | LjL, did you look at the screenshot? The window titlebar font size is 72! | 23:00 |
| bruenig | kishan, your mirror you mean | 23:01 |
| BBHoss | and on 6.10 it worked fine | 23:01 |
| LifeNomad | janky1: Yes, it will also put the mozilla/firefox plugins in also. | 23:01 |
| Heman | LjL-Temp: http://pastebin.ca/746022 | 23:01 |
| HerrDaily | why does the alternate install cd of ubuntu freeze at 83% (while installing kernel-generic)? | 23:01 |
| HorZi | what happend to fluxbuntu? | 23:01 |
| LjL-Temp | jimmygoon: was that bug *reported*? i'm sure if other people had it, i'd have heard about that | 23:01 |
| kishan | bruenig,yes | 23:01 |
| dansku | while installing openoffice, it says there's a error with /usr/lib/openoffice/program/intro.bmp | 23:01 |
| janky1 | ok so i should go through mozilla or system pacjage | 23:01 |
| dansku | anyone have any idea? | 23:01 |
| Masterslave | does anyone know when I installed eclipse from the repos it installs eclipse and gcj-java? and not only Eclipse. it's very annoy to set the java on sun-java-6 | 23:01 |
| jimmygoon | LjL-Temp, it comes and goes every few days with updates... it happened with the beta as well but I considered it a fluke and ignored it :S | 23:01 |
| robertj_ | LifeNomad: hrmm, I would have sworn it used the same box as xterm and friends, but your right | 23:01 |
| gribouille | hi | 23:02 |
| robertj_ | LifeNomad: I haven't used a "real" "virtual" terminal in years | 23:02 |
| LjL-Temp | Heman: thanks, now please pastebin the output of "ps aux | grep libpam". let's see if it's still actually doing something | 23:02 |
| bulmer | Masterslave: are you sure eclipsed installed gcj-java? i doubt it | 23:02 |
| jimmygoon | If I set the font size to '1' it will be okay for now, but tomorrow w/ updates it might "fix" itself and then it will be tiny.... | 23:02 |
| inter-net | Has anyone noticed that firefox, never seems to free memory when you close a tab | 23:02 |
| Masterslave | bulmer: yes im positve | 23:02 |
| LifeNomad | robertj_: lol I am no expert though | 23:02 |
| gribouille | I've installed ubuntu. what should I put in mu menu.lst to be able to boot it ? | 23:02 |
| robertj_ | can that be disabled during boot? | 23:02 |
| LjL-Temp | jimmygoon: well, report it. http://bugs.ubuntu.com | 23:02 |
| Masterslave | if installed it on my laptop and pc | 23:02 |
| jimmygoon | LjL-Temp, okay | 23:02 |
| Masterslave | the gcj-java isn't that great.... | 23:02 |
| Nubbie | hi guys, quick question... how can I change the sleep command used by System>Quit... I've found one that actually works by entering it into a terminal... but i dislike that hassle. Thanks | 23:02 |
| BBHoss | LjL-Temp, any idea why the ubuntu-restricted-extras wouldnt work? | 23:02 |
| robertj_ | is there some shell thats running at that time or is it part of the kernel? | 23:03 |
| Heman | LjL-Temp: http://pastebin.ca/746025 | 23:03 |
| bulmer | Masterslave: no way, Eclipsed dont use gcj | 23:03 |
| janky1 | life: should i go through mozilla or synaptic package manager | 23:03 |
| Masterslave | i don't know but it installs with Eclipse | 23:03 |
| LifeNomad | janky1: just goto the "start" button and goto add/remove programs | 23:03 |
| strick | LjL-Temp, are you still there? you asked me why would i do "/" logical? Right? Sry it was installing and couldn't reply, now its already done and installed. should I be worried that i made "/" Logical? I did it because one of the members of this channel told me to. | 23:03 |
| rathel | I'm trying to get Amarok to work with MySQL I followed these instructions: http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/MySQL_HowTo But I can't seem to get it to work, I'm running MySQL on another computer from Amarok. | 23:03 |
| Evanlec | anyone know anything about the linux-rt kernel package?? | 23:04 |
| LjL-Temp | strick: partitions only need to be logical if you need more than 4 partitions. do you? | 23:04 |
| backtick | hi all, any ideas on how to redirect sound from one (k)ubuntu machine to another? | 23:04 |
| Dyus | is there a way to get Evolution to sit in the notification tray? | 23:04 |
| BBHoss | rathel, make sure it can accept outside connections | 23:04 |
| Heman | LjL-Temp: I really want 7.10 but its seemingly alot of hassel which im confused with, considering im an X windows user..thanks for your help though | 23:04 |
| end0r57 | i'm trying to use gparted to format my external USB drive as NTFS. i moved all of my music and stuff off and now when i deleter the partition in gparted and attempt to create a new one, it doesn't let me select NTFS as the file system. just some nix file systems and FAT | 23:04 |
| LjL-Temp | BBHoss: honestly i don't think i know | 23:04 |
| janky1 | life: ok | 23:04 |
| bulmer | Masterslave: you are getting confused on with the stock java installed | 23:04 |
| strick | LjL, no I only used "/" and "/home" and "/swap" | 23:04 |
| LjL-Temp | Heman: wait a second. | 23:04 |
| BBHoss | rathel: i believe it only accepts from localhost by default | 23:04 |
| LjL-Temp | strick: then there is no need to make anything logical. | 23:04 |
| Masterslave | this is from sun /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java | 23:04 |
| Heman | LjL-Temp: Ok | 23:04 |
| rathel | BBHoss: How exaclt should I do that? I think that's what I'm forgetting to do. | 23:04 |
| bulmer | backtick: i have heard freenx can do it, but i have not tried | 23:04 |
| strick | LjL-Temp, :( I already installed, should i re-install again? | 23:05 |
| Masterslave | and when i installed eclipse from the repos, it adds this /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java | 23:05 |
| kousotu | mine blows :( | 23:05 |
| kousotu | oops... | 23:05 |
| gribouille | I've installed ubuntu. what should I put in mu menu.lst to be able to boot it ? | 23:05 |
| BBHoss | you have to edit /etc/mysql/my.cnf i believe | 23:05 |
| LjL-Temp | strick: it will work like it is. | 23:05 |
| LordZack | using wine im trying to install windows software. HAlf way through it opens something called program manager and comes up with an error "unable to start DDE communication with program manager" how do i get through this error? | 23:05 |

| kishan | gribouille, how did u install it | 23:05 |
| jimmygoon | LjL-Temp, something similar has been reported. I will add to that | 23:06 |
| rathel | BBHoss: Thanks, looking now. | 23:06 |
| gribouille | kishan, with the cdrom | 23:06 |
| BBHoss | LordZack, check the Wine AppDB | 23:06 |
| strick | LjL-Temp, I don't understand, should i re-install or not? | 23:06 |
| kishan | gribouille, what is the problem now | 23:06 |
| BBHoss | see if there are problems with your program | 23:06 |
| end0r57 | i'm trying to use gparted to format my external USB drive as NTFS. i moved all of my music and stuff off and now when i delete the partition in gparted and attempt to create a new one, it doesn't let me select NTFS as the file system. just some nix file systems and FAT | 23:06 |
| LordZack | whats the wine appdb? | 23:06 |
| LjL-Temp | strick: no need to bother reinstalling - logical will work, too. | 23:06 |
| BBHoss | google it | 23:06 |
| strick | LjL-Temp, ok but whats the different if I may ask. do you reckon I can change it to primary from here without reinstalling? | 23:06 |
| gribouille | kishan, I didn't install grub because it was already there | 23:06 |
| sabgenton | is there any thing out there to change .avi dvix to DVD | 23:06 |
| sabgenton | ac3 | 23:07 |
| Evanlec | anyone know anything about the linux-rt kernel package?? | 23:07 |
| dewdude_ | ok, i've got a 7.04 liveCD booted, i ran sudo modprobe ipw2100 | 23:07 |
| kishan | gribouille, do u have live cd or alternative cd | 23:07 |
| dewdude_ | but i still have no wireless | 23:07 |
| janky1 | life: i sent you a im on the side so if you have time you can walk me through it | 23:07 |
| gribouille | kishan, what's the difference ? | 23:07 |
| Masterslave | Bulmer: stock java is gcj? | 23:07 |
| Nubbie | Evanlec: yeah it's the realtime kernel. | 23:07 |
| Sgt_Shankers | is there anyway to install internet explorer or msn messenger using wine on ubuntu 7.10? | 23:07 |
| bulmer | dewdude_: which chip that ipw2100 supports? | 23:07 |
| LjL-Temp | strick: no, you can't. the difference is just that the PC partition table was designed for 4 partitions only. then "extended" partitions (that contain "logical" partitions) were created to allow using more than 4. Linux copes fine with that; Windows can have problems, for instance. | 23:07 |
| kishan | gribouille, did u do a fresh gutsy install | 23:07 |
| deaddreamer_ | im a bit lost here, im trying to get utorrent to work with my already opened ports that i used on windows and it says they are not open :S how do i config this ? :S | 23:07 |
| LifeNomad | Sgt_Shankers: MSN you can do with pidgin | 23:07 |
| dewdude_ | bulmer, i have an intel pro/wireless 2100 | 23:07 |
| gribouille | kishan, I installed from the livecd | 23:07 |
| bulmer | Masterslave: i'd prefer sun | 23:07 |
| dewdude_ | this is a centrino laptop | 23:07 |
| Nubbie | Evanlec: i highly doubt you have any use for a realtime kernel | 23:08 |
| Masterslave | yeah me too | 23:08 |
| LjL-Temp | Heman: try "sudo kill 7812" | 23:08 |
| end0r57 | gparted can create NTFS, yes? | 23:08 |
| kishan | gribouille, if u install with live cd it will install grub automatically | 23:08 |
| bulmer | dewdude_: what test did you do after modprobing that? | 23:08 |
| bruenig | Sgt_Shankers, ies4linux | 23:08 |
| bruenig | deaddreamer_, iptables | 23:08 |
| Evanlec | Nubbie, actually et:qw recommends it | 23:08 |
| Sgt_Shankers | LifeNomad: i know but its missing alot of te features of msn and looks alot differnt | 23:08 |
| Heman | LjL-Temp: Ok thanks... | 23:08 |
| Masterslave | just wondering ;-) | 23:08 |
| gribouille | kishan, no, I told the installer not to install grub | 23:08 |
| Nubbie | Evanlec: for what reason? | 23:08 |
| dewdude_ | well, it's not showing up in network settings..but it's been so long since i tried wireless in linux i can't remmeber exactly how to do it | 23:08 |
| Evanlec | Nubbie, hold on pulling up the install notes | 23:08 |
| kishan | gribouille, are u not able to booot now wht is the problem | 23:08 |
| LifeNomad | Sgt_Shankers: I am not sure if wine will install it... | 23:09 |
| LordZack | using wine im trying to install windows software. HAlf way through it opens something called program manager and comes up with an error "unable to start DDE communication with program manager" how do i get through this error? I looked at wines DB and it says i can use it. | 23:09 |

| Nubbie | LordZack: after checking the wine appdb, look for help in #wine. | 23:10 |

| squarebottle | I installed Gutsy on a machine, but I can't seem to ssh to it as easily as I was able to on Feisty. After installing openssh-server is there anything else I need to do on the machine? | 23:12 |

| kishan | yes its modified | 23:14 |

| bulmer | myghetek: curiousn, freebsd serving these services are hard to manage or un-manageable? | 23:14 |

| Metal03 | Is there a way to verify the graphic drivers installed... cause I think I might have conflicting drivers installed!! | 23:17 |
| Evanlec_ | Nubbie, etqw says it needs a 2.6 kernel configured for 1000Hz tick and other low latency settings | 23:17 |
| squarebottle | Nubbie: It's not giving an error or anything either. It's simply not sshing. It's just taking forever, doing nothing. | 23:17 |
| bulmer | Eagle_101: what program do you normally run to set that password? | 23:17 |
| kousotu | I found a bug withthe GUI mounting, where could I report it? | 23:17 |

| Evanlec_ | Nubbie, but why do u say its more trouble than its worth? the -lowlatency kernel in feisty seemed to work fine, plus added performance | 23:22 |
| monk | is ubuntu the most reliable os? | 23:22 |
| georgy_28 | stric: w32codecs | 23:22 |
| Metal03 | Kishan: The pastebin I linked is from when I type 'winecfg' | 23:22 |

| deaddreamer_ | is !firewall a channel or someting? :S (total n00b) | 23:22 |
| NutsPT | hello alll | 23:22 |
| Nubbie | Evanlec_: but apparently you already have it installed. the linux-rt kernel should give you low latency, which is what you want. | 23:23 |
| kousotu | I found a bug withthe GUI mounting, where could I report it? | 23:23 |

| strick | What was the package name please, does anybody know? That installs all codecs for videos. | 23:23 |
| Nubbie | Evanlec_: thats pretty much the only reason i can think of for installing a real time kernel | 23:23 |
| Evanlec_ | Nubbie, i do have it installed but for some reason my wireless just crapped out so im running on the generic | 23:23 |
| squarebottle | LifeNomad: Is there any real reason you want old Beryl over Compiz Fusion? | 23:23 |
| deaddreamer_ | the thing is i know how to open ports on my router, i have then alreaedy opened for windows, so with ubuntu i just assigned the same ip so it uses the same ones but it shows as they are not opened :S | 23:24 |
| LifeNomad | squarebottle: yes, it runs faster, and more smoothly on my laptop. | 23:24 |
| Evanlec_ | Nubbie, doesnt it make applications more responsive? gives more cpu time to single applications, i.e. games? | 23:24 |
| Nubbie | Evanlec_: make sure your wireless kernel module compiled/loaded okay. | 23:24 |
| LifeNomad | squarebottle: Compiz just lags bad | 23:24 |
| qwerkus | Hi all: my upgrade to feisty crashed because of a bad networkd connection; i resumed packet updating and would like to know if there is something else to check in order to complete this upgrade ? | 23:24 |
| squarebottle | LifeNomad: Are you aware that Compiz Fusion IS Beryl? As in, Beryl and Compiz merged back together, and that's what Compiz Fusion is? | 23:24 |
| fruitbatJim | is there a way of seeing if your cpu is 64 bit or 32 bit? | 23:25 |
| qwerkus | squarebottle: NOT true | 23:25 |
| hyper___ch | is OpenSSH-Server having a problem? I installed it, but it doesn't listen to connections from outside... | 23:25 |
| Nubbie | fruitbatJim: what model CPU do you have? | 23:25 |
| squarebottle | qwerkus: Erm. Yeah, that's exactly what it is. They merged. | 23:25 |
| defuego | install both generic and rt kernels - use rt kernel just when you think you need it | 23:25 |
| graft_ | compiz fusion is NOT beryl | 23:25 |
| Sgt_Shankers | fruitbatJim there is a way under windows im not sure about doing it in linux tho i just started using it yesterday | 23:25 |
| qwerkus | yup :) | 23:25 |
| MajorPayne | fruitbatJim: Check what CPU was installed in your computer. There should be at least some documentation with your computer. Even if just a parts list. | 23:25 |
| LifeNomad | squarebottle: I understand this, but I know for a fact that compiz-fusion is laggy as crap on this PC, whereas Beryl runs perfect! | 23:25 |
| graft_ | they just merged beryl plugins back into the compiz core | 23:25 |
| c0Ld | is the hosts file for ubuntu in /etc/hosts? | 23:25 |
| Crescendo | Wow, score on the new Ubuntu. | 23:26 |
| fruitbatJim | it's a core2 t7400 | 23:26 |
| Crescendo | Just gave it a chance, and it's amazing. | 23:26 |

| Sgt_Shankers | Crescendo i love it too | 23:26 |
| Taffy-nay | I'm having problems with kopete not getting smilies accross to the people I'm talking to | 23:26 |
| Nubbie | fruitbatJim: its 64bit capable. | 23:26 |
| LifeNomad | squarebottle: haha I have been trying to figure this out on IRC for about 2 days now | 23:26 |
| fruitbatJim | thanks | 23:26 |
| Crescendo | I have yet to test it on my final convertees - but it's looking good so far! | 23:26 |
| Crescendo | Yay wireless. | 23:26 |
| squarebottle | graft_ and qwerkus: Compiz Fusion is Beryl and Compiz merging back together, mates. Don't know what to tell ya. Do you want some links, or what? | 23:26 |
| fruitbatJim | but does that mean I want the 64 bit version of ubuntu as opposed to the 32? | 23:26 |
| stroyan | fruitbatJim: You can "cat /proc/cpuinfo" and look for "lm" in the flags line. | 23:27 |
| Crescendo | Now if I can connect my Windows Mobile phone and sync with Evolution... SOLLLLD | 23:27 |
| Nubbie | fruitbatJim: no, keep 32bit ubuntu. | 23:27 |
| hyper___ch | is AppArmor messing with OpenSSH-Server? | 23:27 |
| MajorPayne | fruitbatJim: It's up to you. | 23:27 |
| fruitbatJim | would 64 bit work though? | 23:27 |
| stroyan | fruitbatJim: "lm" is long mode, aka 64 address support. | 23:27 |
| Moduliz0r | Hi, how do I have different wallpapers on different workspaces? | 23:27 |
| Evanlec_ | fruitbatJim, 64bit would work fine | 23:27 |
| Nubbie | fruitbatJim: many things don't operate correctly in 64 bit environments, especially proprietary software. | 23:27 |
| Sgt_Shankers | fruitbatJim you can run either version, however theres some software thats 64 bit only(very few) and some more that are 32 bit only | 23:27 |
| FrankQ | fruitbatJim: Probably would, with some problems. There's a slight amount of worse support for 64-bit software. | 23:27 |
| Sgt_Shankers | 32 bit is really the best way to go even in windows still | 23:28 |
| Evanlec_ | but in my opinion its getting better, and is very close | 23:28 |
| Taffy-nay | can anyone help? | 23:28 |
| FrankQ | Generally I've never came across any problems except with flash and even that is solved in the new Ubuntu I heard. | 23:28 |

| Daemonik | How does OpenOffice crash because of a different GTK theme? | 23:29 |
| Evanlec_ | FrankQ, yea, the flash package on gutsy installs and configures nspluginwrapper for you automatically, its quite easy | 23:29 |
| jburd | danny3793: What motherboard? | 23:29 |
| Daemonik | I mean, what the hell. | 23:30 |
| danny3793 | Gaska: ACPI causes system lockups, so i tried both.. | 23:30 |
| Tamale | It's one of Gnome's shortcomins. | 23:30 |
